THAMES.

No HONOUR Amorroc THIEVES.—Three Spitalfield
thieves, from that notorious place, Keate-street, were
brought before Mr• Selfe on remand, charged with stealing
a jacket, value 10s., the property of Joseph Vanderstein, a
foreigner, who keeps a general shop in Backchurch-lane,
Whitechapel, The prisoners gave their names, George
Bryerman, 19, Thomas Jackson, 18, -and John Buckley, 18,
though neither of them looked so old as represented.
The robbery was committed in broad-day light with the
greatest effrontery. One of the prisoners got upon a child's
chair outside the prosecutor's shop, while the other twco,
stood at the shop door to prevent any of the inmates
of the house leaving it, the jacket was unfastened
from a string, to which it was suspended, thrown
by Buckley to Jackson and by Jackson to Bryerman. The
three villains laughed at the shopkeeper's wife who called
after them, and made off with the jacket. Buckley, who
has been several times in custody and once summarily con-
victed for a petty theft, was first arrested by Daniel Davey,
182 H. The prisoner said, " Why don't you take Tom.
Jackson, he was in it as well as me." The hint was enough
for the police constable who apprehended Jackson on the
following day. The fellow asked the officer if he had got
Jack Buckley, to which Davey replied yes, and he is re-
manded• "Then why don't you take George Bryer-
man, he was as much in it as I was," con-
tinued the rascal. Davey said he should have him
in his hands very soon, and acting on the information
given by Jackson, proceeded to the thieves colony, in Keats-
street, where he took Bryerman into custody, and had no,
sooner done so than the prisoner said, "Why don't you
nab Buckley and Jackson ?" " I have already done that,"
said the officer, at v hich Bryerman expressed great satis-
faction. The whole conduct of the prisoners reversed the
old adage, " there is honour among thieves." They were
described as having been the associates of the worst of
thieves for many years. Bryerman and Jackson had been
convicted summarily.

Mr. Selfe said the prisoners were very cowardly shalfeY
fellows impeaching each other. It was, however, produc-
tive of good for the publio that they had done so ; and
he was glad there was no honour among thieves, when it
resulted in their apprehension and conviction. The pri•
goners would go to gaol together, but he would take
care they did not come out at the same lime. He sen-
tenced Bryerman to three months' imprisonment and hard
labour, Jackson to 10 weeks' imprisonment and hard
labour, and Buckley to two months' imprisonment and hard
labour ; and if they were ever brought before him again,
and a case was made out, he would commit them for trial.

The above work contains most useful and interesting
information on the physiological changes which occur
in the Reproductive System during the periods of youth,
puberty, and manhood ; and on the due attainment of that
theree of functional vigour upon which the hopes of posterity
depend. It also points out how all the attributes of ➢ian-
hood can be preserved to an advanced period of life, how they
are lest, and how they can be recovered. It is free from the
gro is exaggerations, alarming descriptions, and dangerous
rem ;dies so generally resorted to by persons, who, prac-
tisia r with false medical qualifications, inflict most serious
injuries, and render judicious treatment frequently abortive.

The Author is the only legally qualified practitioner
whose name stands m the Medical Resister (the only
true test of medical qualification), who has been exclu-
sively engaged for a series of years in the treatment of the
variou • functional disorders of the nervous and reproductive
system, which, owing to the great discoveries of modern
science, are rendered subservient to a rational, simple,
and easy mode of treatment.

THE PROPOSED. NEW BRIDGE AT

BLACKFRIARS.

The Court of Common Council held a special
meeting yesterday, pursuant to adjournment, for
the purpose of further considering a report by the
Bridge-house Estates Committee, recommending the
erection of a new bridge of cast iron, of three arches,
at Blackfriars, after the plans and estimates of Mr.
Thomas Page, at a cost of £245,000.
Sir JOHN MUSGROVE presided as locum tenens of
the Lord Mayor. There was a very full attend-
ance, and the proceedings were of an animated de-
scription. _ .

It may be as well to remind our readers that a
special meeting of the court was held on the 24th
of January to consider the report in question, and
that upon this occasion an amendment was pro-
posed by Mr. Deputy Fry, to the effect that the re:
port of the committee should not be agreed to, but
that the subject should be sent back to them for re-
consideration, with power to obtain professional as-
sistance, if they should consider it advisable to do
so, and to report again to the court. The amend-
ment was seconded by Mr. Kearns, who has taken
a very active part in opposition to the proposed
scheme, and the further debate was then adjourned
until yesterday,
Alderman ALLEN, before the business for which
the court was specially summoned commenced, pre-
sented petitions from the captains and owners of
barges and other craft Navigating the river, pray-
ing the court to sanction the erection of a bridge
of three arches, as best calculated for the purposes
of the river traffic, and to prevent Accidents.
Upon the motion of Deputy FRY, the petitioners
were called on to appear at the bar, and a number
of questions were put to them by different members
of the court, and this proceeding occupied a consi-
derable time.

Mr. BLAKE also presented a petition from the
rector, churchwardens, and other officers of the
parish of Christchurch, praying the court not to
sanction the erection of the proposed bridge, on the
ground that it would seriously damage the property
on the Surrey side of the bridge by causing the
level to be raised 3 feet 6 inches.

The debate upon the original motion was then
proceeded with.
Dr, ABRAHAM, who WAS the first speaker, said
he was not one of those members of the Bridge-
house Committee who had changed his mind several
times upon this question as to which was the most
expedient plan to be adopted, a three-arch or a
four-arch bridge; but having carefully considered
all the plans that were sent in by the eminent engi-
neers who had been consulted upon the subject, he
bad come to the conclusion that a three-arch bridge
was the one best calculated for the accommodation
of the traffic of the river, which, it appeared to
him, was the real point to be considered. Sir John
Rennie and Mr. Barlow, two most eminent engi-
neers, to whom all the facts had been submitted,
by their reports and estimates were decidedly in
favour of a three-arch bridge, and appeared to con-
sider that a bridge of this construction was the only
one calculated to meet the requirements of the
case ; and when the committee came to the con-

CORN EXCHANGE.

The supply of English wheat on sale here to-day was
very moderate. Dry parcels were disposed of without diffi-
culty, at prices quite equal to Monday last; otherwise the
trade ruled inactive, on former terms.

The show of samples of foreign wheat was moderately
extensive, and, generally speaking, sales progressed steadily
at full currencies.

Floating cargoes of grain were in moderate request, and
prices were steadily maintained.
Good and fine qualities of barley moved off steadily, at
full previous rates. Inferior parcels were in slow demand,
yet the quotations held firm.
The malt trade was in a sluggish state, at late rates.

For oats there was a steady inquiry, at the prices current
on Monday last.

Beans and peas—the supplies of which were tolerably
extensive—sold heavily, at barely previous quotations.
In flour a moderate amount of business was transacted,
on former terms.

the medical press to be the greatest discOVery ever made.
Success in every case is as certain as that water quenches
thirst.

The above work contains most useful and interesting
information on the physiological changes which occur
in the Reproductive System during the periods of youth,
puberty, and manhood; and on the due attainment of that
d22ree of functional rigour upon which the hopes of posterity
depend. It also points out how all the attributes of Man-
hood can be preserved to an advanced period of life, how they
are lest, and how they can be recovered. It is free from the
gross exaggerations, alarming decicripti-ne, and dangerous
remedies so generally resorted to by persons, who, prac-
timiaz with false medical qualifications, inflict most serious
injuries, and render judicious treatment frequently abortive.
The Author is the only legally qualified practitioner
whose name stands an the Medical Register (the only
true test of medical qualification), who has been exclu-
sively engaged for a series of years in the treatment of the
variou4 flinctional disorders of the nervous and reproductive
system, which, owing to the great discoveries of modern
science, are rendered subservient to a rational, simple,
and easy mode of treatment.
At home for consultation daily from 10 till 2, and from 6
till 8, either personally or by letter.-37, Bedford-square.
