•UILDHALL.-(THIS DAY.)

Thomas Hampton, James Hampton, and Henry
Jefferies were charged with felony.
Policeman, 51, stated that about half-past eight
o'clock this morning he saw Jefferies and Thomas
Hampton walking together, the former carrying a
bundle. He followed them to their lodgings in Neville's-
court, and ascertained that the bundle contained a quan-
tity of lead and a ball-cock. Under the bed he found
several bundles of twine and three naphtha lamps, and
in another part of the room a pair of snuffers. He un
derstood the prisoners were in the habit of stealing pub-
licans' measures, " frying" them down, and then dispos-
ing of the metal. He had found an owner for the
snuffers, and Thomas Hampton had acknowledged
stealing the property found on Jefferies.
Thomas Hampton said that he stole the lead from
the house of Mr. Matthew, cutler, King's Head-court,
and that Jefferies received it. The other articles were
not stolen. He was obliged to commit the theft in
order to get a living.
Mr. Alderman WHITE committed the two, Thomas
Hampton and Jefferies, for three months, but discharged
the other prisoner.

HATTON-GARDEN.-(THIS DAY.)

EXTENSIVE ROBBERY 4; JEWELLERY BY A SER-
VANT.—Catherine Ford alias Perceval, was placed at
the bar charged with stealing trinkets, watches,- and
jewellery, of the value of .500/., the property of Mr.
Parry, of Warner-street, Pentonville.
It appeared that the prisoner lived in the serv.ce o
Mr. Parry, and on the 22d of September last absconded
taking with her a bag containing the property in ques-
tion. A description of her person was advertised in
the Hue and Cry, and in consequence she was arrested
in the county of Galway, and was brought over in cus-
tody of an Irish constable. Some of the property was
found on her, and it appeared that she had pawned a
watch belonging to the prosecutor at Liverpool, on
the 25th of September. Among other documents
round on her WAS a defence drawn up by an Irish at-
torney, which the prisoner herself admitted to tie a
tissue of falsehoods—but declared she had never told
these to the Attorney, but that the whole was his in-
vention.

In her defence she stated that she was induced to
take the things in consequence of the perivasion of a
woman named Daly, who had gone to America
with the whole of the property, only giving her the
things found on her.
She was remanded until Wednesday, in order to give
time for further inquiries to be made. She was fol-
lowed to the office by a crowd of Irish who claimed
relationship with her, and seemed greatly interested in
the result. One of them named Brown was exa-
mined, but nothing material was elicited from him, except
that he was directed by the prisoner's father to employ
counsel to defend her it necessary.

LIVERPOOL CoTios MARKET, jI-111Rt,DAV.—WC
have had a pomi Fl,,malid for Gotten to-day, the sales
amount to 5,000 baggy including 500 Americans for ex-
port, and 500 on speculation ; prives for the common
twiddle qualities of Amerien descriptions are id. per

Tile Margaret, Scott, from St. Petersburgh, got on
shore on Hoyte Bank. With the assistance of the life
boayand steam top, she has been towed on the main
near Hoy Loke, she tills with the tide. The Captain
Larded here this morning, for the purpose of engaging
flats to receive the cargo, tallow, &c.

The only arrivals this morning, arc one French mail,
that of yesterday is still due ; two Ostend mails have
arrived ; the Dutch mail is also due. No shipletters.

We have received the Antwerp Journal of Commerce
of yesterday's date :
" Accounts from the Hague of the 29th of October
state that yesterday the second Chamber of the States
General discussed for some time on the project of the
address in answer to the Speech from the Throne,
which was presented to them by the Commission. The
address was adopted and sent back to the First
Chamber, and will be discussed this day.
" A violent north wind has prevailed for these two
days past. It has frozen, and a fall of snow has taken
place."

Amsterdam prices of Stocks—Two-and-a-1141f per
Cents., .51i ; Five per Cents., 98i. ; Ardoin's Spanish,
26 7-16. The Dutch Funds came per cent lower.
The Dutch mail has just arrived of Wednesday's
date, 80th inst., bringing the prices from Amsterdam
as per above, received by the Journal of Antwerp. The
market for Dutch Stock was rather firmer, and all
kinds of funds could be easily dispo,ed of at the
prices of the preceding day. Exchange, at two months,
fl.ll 87i ; short, f 1.12.

Accounts received of a late date from Rangoon state
that a Royal order had been read in the Court-house
(this is a sort of substitute for a Government Gazette)
appointing the Woon•gyee to succeed the present
Woon-doork, and directing that batteries be imme-
diately erected on both the Rangoon and Dalha sides
of the river, at the bottom of the reach on which th e
town stands. Well constructed and well managed bat-
teries at these points would undoubtedly prove formid-
able ; but as M. Mauny-Loo-nyo is not a second
Vauban, and the Burmese artillerymen have had no
practical instructions, it will be as easy to silence them
as it was to silence the Chinese forts at Bogue.

It appears from the quarterly return from the Stamp
Office, of the aggregate amount of notes circulated be-
tween the 29th of June and 28th of September last, by
the Private and Joint-stock Banks and their branches,
that the issue of the Private Banks amounted only to
6,917,6571., being a reduction of 693,0511., as com-
pared with the former return, and that the issues of the
Joint-stock Banks were only 4,167,0131., being less than
at the prior return by 497,7971., thus making a reduc-
tion of 1,190,8481. in the eircMation of the private and
Joint-stock Banks throughout the kingdom, during the
last quarter.

The official returns of the exports of bullion during
the period embracing the 24th and 30th of Oc:ober
have been published, by vi hich it appears that silver coin
has been shipped to the amount of 460,727 ounce, and
gold coin 1,460 ounces, in bars 1,520 ounces.

This being All-Saints Day, is kept as a holiday
both at the Stock Exchange and Foreign Market, and
the Bank. In consequence of which the Brokers and
Jobbers have aiLs•ru►bied at the various eoffee-bouses
and courts adjoining the Stock Exchange. To the pre-
sent hour we do not hear of any transactions of conse-
quence having been done in the British and Foreign
Funds.

The continuance of the North Easterly winds de-
prives us of the arrival of the packet ships from New
York, which are anxiously looked foi by the mer-
chants.

The following is from the Bimbay Papers, recently
received :

" PROSPECTS OF A BURMESE WAR.—The Ceylon
papers lately announced that a considerable force in that
Island, principally European, bad lately received orders
to hold themselves in readiness for embarkation—for
Montenain, as was generally believed. We have since
learned that all the general service corps of the Bengal
army, at the same moment as the Ceylon troops, received
a similar mandate, ordered to assemble at the Presi-
dency by the end of October, preparatory to embarka-
tion on service. The regiments so ordered are the 18th,
25th, 40th, 66th, 67th, and 68th. This certainly Inks
something like being in earnest at last ; and though it
is quite true that the last accounts from Bum di an-
nounce present tranquillity and say nothing of the late
rumours of an advance of the three armies under Tha-
rawaddie's three sons ; we suppose few will think that.
we need any additional reasons for taking order with
him at our earliest convenience."

The Burmah business will be left principally, if not
entirely, to the Madras army and Sir Jasper Nicolls.
The Bengal and Bombay armies have had their share
of active service in the north-west, from which the Ma-
dras army was almost excluded by its local situation.
TEAS.—Purchases have been made for American
vessels at Lintin, and the tea men are more firm, under
a belief that since two ships have curie in, others will
soon enter the river.
Exchange on London is in some demand, and the rate
is steady at 4 9 to 4 10 cash.
SINGAPORE, JULY 25.—Tin is very scarce, and a
small parcel imported since the 18th inst., has
been bought chiefly for the Calcutta Market, at
from 16i to 174 dollars per picul ; Gambia not so
much inquired atter, but small purchases have been
made during the week at 225 to 240 pe•r picul. Ex
change or, London—Pi ivate bills, six months' sight, with
shipping. documents, have been sold at 4s. 101 per
dollar.

To the present hour we do not bear of any business
of consequence doing in either of the funds at the
various places of resort of the stock brokers and
jobbers. Prices are nominal at yesterday's leaving off
quotations.

- The British Queen steamer sailed this morning from
the River for New York, with 170 passengers on
board—several are waiting for her at Portsmouth.

THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE.

There have been small arrivals this week of English Grain,
and fair of Foreign. The firmness in the Wheat trade con-
tinue, and a good business has been done in Foreign at Monday's
+vices. In other articles no variation. A steady demand for
hour at last quotations.
