THIS DAY'S MARKETS.

CORN EXCHANGE.
There was a fair demand for the best samples of wheat
in the leading country markets on Saturday; but low and
damp qualities moved off slowly, on rather easier terms.
In barley a fair average business was transacted, neverthe-
less, the quotations had a drooping tendency. All other
kinds of produce were dull, at barely previous rates.
Scarcely any change has taken place in the value of grain
in the continental markets ; but the demand for spring
shipment has continued heavy. Liberal supplies of wheat,
flour, and maize continue to be shipped from New York.
Somewhat increased supplies of home-grown produce
were received up to our market last week. The imports
from abroad were 25,681 quarters of wheat; 2,861 barley;
8,465 oats; 1,370 beans; 776 tares; 26,547 linseed; 6,297
rapeseed; 374 sacks and 43,011 barrels of flour.
The arrivals of English wheat to this morning's market
were small, yet notwithstanding the drier state of the weather,
very little improvement was noticed in the condition of the
samples. On the whole the demand ruled steady, and the
rates current on Monday last were fairly maintained. We
would remark, however, that there was no tendency to
activity in the trade; nevertheless a fair clearance was
effected.
With foreign wheat we were fairly supplied. American
descriptions changed hands more freely, at full quotations;
and the value of other kinds, for which there was a mode-
rately active inquiry, was steadily supported.
Floating cargoes of grain were in moderate request, and
the currencies ruled firm.
The show of barley was less extensive. The demand,
however, ruled somewhat inactive, yet prices were quite
maintained.
The transactions in malt were by no means extensive, at
the late decline in the quotations.
The oat trade was firm, and prices were well supported.
The supply on offer was only moderate.
The show of beans was tolerably extensive, and the trade
for them ruled heavy, with a downward tendency in the
quotations.

Peas were a dull inquiry, and previous quotations were
with considerable difficulty obtained. There was a fair
average quantity on offer.
American barrel flour moved off steadily at late rates. In
other kinds, a fair business was transacted on former terms.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—(I7ais Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

STEALING A VALUABLE OIL PAINTING.—Mary Ann
Connolly, pianist, residing at 377, Strand, was charged
before Mr. Tyrwhitt with stealing an oil painting and
frame, of the value of VO, the property of Mr. Alfred
Gritten, picture dealer, of 30, Gerrard-street, Soho.
Mr. Edward Lewis, of Great Marlborough-street, ap.
peered for the prisoner.
Mr. Gritten said he took two rooms at No. 30, Gerrard-
street, Soho (ot which house the prisoner was the landlady)
to place some pictures in, he being a dealer in pictures, and
among them was the one named in the present charge, re-
presenting the " Virgin and Child," being a painting after
Rubens. They were all taken to the prisoner's house on
the 2d of December. A few days after he went to the
house to get another painting to send to a gentleman, and,
as he could not find it, this led him to examine the pictures
more carefully, and then he found the painting of the
" Virgin and Child" was also gone. He placed the matter
in the hands of the police, and nothing more was heard of
the matter till Saturday afternoon, when happening to pass
along Princes-street, he saw by accident the painting in a
dealer's window. He asked the assistant what it was, and
he said he did not know, and that Mr. Adams ha only had
it a fortnight.

jHere the accused fell down in the dock in a fit and, was
carried out of court.]
Mr. Lewis said she was subject to epileptic fits.

Mr. Tyrwhitt said the case should stand bank for half.
an-hour, and on the case being resumed,

Some evidence was given of pictures being pledged by
the prisoner's orders, and she was remanded.

THAMES.

A GERMAN Row.—William Pindler, aged 23, of No. 2,
High-street, Deptford, was brought before Mr. Woolrych,
charged with feloniously cutting and wounding George
Bartels, lodging-house keeper, of No. 17, Fieldgate-street,
W hi techapel.
The complainant and prisoners are both Germans, Pind-
ler or Pinder formerly
,lodged in Bartel's house, and when
he left and hired lodgings in Deptford, it Ras alleged that
he was in Bartel's debt. They met on Saturday night in
Fieldgate-street, and a quarrel took place respecting the
disputed account between them, and, according to Barters
account, the prisoner attacked him and beat him, and in a
struggle which ensued, cut him with some very sharp in-
strument on the upper lip, which was cut right through.
He bled profusely, There was a general row among the
Germans, principally sugar-bakers, of whom there were
50 or 60 present—the police interfered, and after a serious
disturbance the prisoner was arrested. No knife was seen
or found, but the prisoner had ample opportunity of making
away with any instrument he might have had,
Mr. Stoddart, solicitor, set up a defence for the prisoner
that the complainant had struck another man in a public-
house, and that the prisoner was running after him when
the complainant turned round upon him and gave him into
custody.

After a good deal of conflicting evidence, Mr. Woolrycb
gave his decision at one o'clock, and said in every case
where it was made out a knife was used he would commit
the party for trial. It was doubtful whether a knife had
been used in this case, but a violent assault had been com-
mitted by the prisoner, for which he fined him £3.

His Honour the Master of the Rolls said—The plaintiff
asks specific performance of an agreement entered into on
the 20th June, 1860, by which the defendant agreed to take
a lease of Clifton House, Clifton-gardens, Maida-hill, for
7, 14, or 21 years, at a rent of £2OO for the first three years,
and £220 for every other. The ground was a grant by the
Bishop of London, and the defendant took possession on
the 29th December, 1860, but objected that the house was
in an unfurnished state, and required more repairs annu-
ally than was incumbent on him as a tenant to bear the -ex-
pense of. His Honour, on considering the affidavits pro-
duced, and having personally inspected the house, and
taken the opinion of experienced architects and builders
thereon, came to the conclusion that he could not enforce
specific performance of the agreement. His honour dis-
missed the plaintiff's bill, with costs.
