MARLBOROUGH-STREET-(THIS DAY.)

ROBBERY.--Mary Kennedy, a well-dressed woman,
was placed At the bar before Mr. Bingham, charged
with stealing a pound weight of bacon, value Bd., the
property of Mr. George Tickell, cheesemonger, 54,
Broad-street, Golden-square.
Prosecutor stated that about twelve o'clock on Satur-
day night he was on a pair of steps, near his shop door,
taking down a side of bacon, when he saw the prisoner
take up the piece of bacon produced, and put it under
her shawl. Just as she was walking off, he got down
from the steps and went after her, and asked her to
give hill; the bacon she had taken from his shop. She
then pulled the piece of bacon from under her shawl and
threw it oh the counter. He then sent for a constable,
and gave her in chdrge.
In defence, the prisoner said she took the baCon with
the intention of having it weighed in the shop, and
while she was waiting the prosecutor taxed her with
stealing the bacon, and gave her in charge.
Mr. Bingham remanded her till Wednesday next.

BOROUGH AND SPITALFIBLDS.
The receipts of home-grown potatoes have been verr
limited since our last report ; but the imports from the
continent have been on a liberal scale—viz., 913 tons from
Rouen, 32 from Gravelines, 90 from Havre, 155 from
Dunkirk, 30 from Calais, and 8 bags from Rotterdara•
The demand to-day is by no means brisk, as follows :---
York Regents, 115 s to 160 s per ton ; Lincolnshire deo
95s to 125 s ; foreign, 95s to 115 s.

WOOL.
We continue to have a very firm market for all kinds of
English wool, the supply of which is limited, at full quota,:
tions. Foreign and colonial qualities are dull in sale, IT"
not lower. Last week's imports were 233 bales from ti'el
Cape, 811 from Hobart Town, 12 from Dantzig, 81 from

.13ANKRuptor COURT—{THIS DA T.)

(Before Mr. Coicamissioner Holroyd.)
IN RE GIBSON.-THE ST. ALBAN'S BANS.-IMPORTANT
JUDGMENT AS TO PROTECTION AFTER REFUSAL OF CER-

TIPICITE.

' His Honour this day delivered judgment on the very
important question whether the Court had power to
grant protection after the certificate had been wholly re-
fused. This bankrupt, it will be remembered—the ar-
gumenta having been recently published—had carried on
business as an attorney and• a banker at St. Alban's, in
partnership with a person named Sturt, who waB also
made bankrupt. The present judgment was given on an
application, by way of petition, for his Honour to grant
protection, or to recal or reverse the certificate.

His Honour said that he ,had most carefully:considered
the different clauses of the Bankruptcy Law Consolida-
tion Act bearing on the point, and could only come to the
conclusion that he could not nor ought not to grant the
application. His Honour referred to the 112th, 162 d,
196th, 207th,. 257th, and 259th clauses—bnt more par-
ticularly to the 257th section, and the cases of Cowgill,
16, '2 B, 246, and Stanton, 1 bankruptcy, rep. 7. His
Honour said that the bankrupt had gone over to
Boulogne, out of the jurisdiction of this Court, and still
remained there, consequently he had avoided the clause
which had been inserted for the purpose of punishment ;
it would be most mischievous to grant protection in such
a case, and he was also bound to say that the petition
must be dismissed with costs.
Petition dismissed accordingly.

SPAIN.

,M. Llorente, the Spanish Minister of Finance,
has just concluded a loan of more than 500 millions
;If reals (more than 125 millions of francs) with the
house of Baring, of London. This sum is intended
to pay off the floating debt, which will be replaced
by perpetual debt. The conditions of this loan
are very favourable to Spain, which has never been
able hitherto to obtain money but at an interest of
10 12, and even 15 per cent. per annum. This
loan has been effected at 7 per cent. M. Sala-
ti?-anca, who seconded M. Llorente in this negotia-
tion, has just left London on his return to Madrid,
'la Paris. The affair will be immediately sub-
tnitted to the approbation of the Cortes.
A good deal of rain had fallen in Madrid.

Pocchi guilty of high treason. The sittings of ,the

'BRITISH COLLEGE of HEALTH
Hamilton-place, New-road, London..
The principles of the HYGEIAN or MORISONIAN SYSTEM
are contained in the following propositions:-
1. The vital principle is in the blood.
2. Everything in the body is derived from the blood.
3. All constitutions are radically the same.
4. All diseases arise from impurity of the blood, or, in other words,
from acrimonious humours lodged in the body.
5. Pain and disease have the same origin, and may therefore be
considered synonymous.
6. From the intimate connexion subsisting between mind and
body, the health of the one must conduce to the serenity of the other.
7. Proper purgation by vegetables is the only effectual mode of
eradicating disease.
15. The discovery of a vegetable compound, capable of being di-
gested, and mixing with the blood, so as to impart to it that energy
requisite for ridding the body of all impurities, was a desideratum.
16. This discovery was made by JAMES MORISON, the Hygeist,
in the composition of the VEGETABLE UNIVERSAL MEDICINE
k Morison's Pills), of the British College of Health, Hamilton-place,
New-road, London.

with disappointment of the issue of writs to Bridg-
north and Blackburn. Party-spirit in each borough
will perhaps be satisfied with unseating a Member,
but the country generally looked on with a very
different concern to that. It hoped that the ut-
most possible instruction would be gained from
each case of proved corruption. We, therefore,
respectfully call upon the House to adopt Sir
JAMES GRAHAM'S suggestion, and to grant in
every case of proved bribery a Select Committee to
investigate its extent. As to dealing alike by all,
there is no more necessity for doing that than for
letting off all the guilty in a mutiny because some
are pardoned, or for not arresting the remainder
of a gang of thieves because some few have by
oversight escaped. The House cannot do more
wisely than to show by its future course that they
were surprised into the indulgence granted to
Bridgnorth and Blackburn.

MELANCHOLY SUICIDE OP A GIRL.—On Saturday last
Margaret Elliot, a young girl about 16 years of age,
who resided with her parents, in Low Glencairn-
street, committed suicide under very mysterious cir-
cumstances. On Friday night she had been out with
other girls, in company with several young men, and the
party had separated about twelve o'clock. On Saturday
she was in her usual spirits apparently, although it was'
evident her mind must in some way have been disturbed.
On that day she purchased from an apothecary a penny-
worth of vitriol, and having gone into the garden at the
back of her father's house; drank it between four and
five o'clock in the afternoon. Having been observed
lyiny in the garden, she was brought into the house in
great agony, and surgical assistance immediately pro-
cured. The fatal potion, however, defied all remedy,
and in three hours after she died. She gave no other
reason for the step which she had taken than that she
was tired of her life. The corpse was interred on Tues-
day.—Silmarnock Journal.

REINFORCEMENT OF THE MEDITERRANEAN

FLEET,

We stated some days since that the Mediterranean
fleet would most likely be reinforced, and we expected,
from an order given last week, that none of the men be-
longing to the steam squadron at Spithead should be
allowed leave on shore, that before this some of the ships
would have taken their departure for Malta. It appears,
however, that on Saturday orders were received at
Portsmouth for Rear-Admiral Corry's baggage to be
landed from the Prince Regent, 90, and on that day,-
our correspondent states, " the Prince Regent, 90, Cap-
tain Frederick Hutton, and Leopard, 16 (paddle-frigate),
Captain George Giffard, fired a signal-gun at 1.30
p.m., and hoisted the blue peter at the fore; and it
was supposed that sudden orders had come down for
them to put to sea, and their destination the Mediter-
ranean. They unmoored, and awaited further orders.
Yesterday, our correspondent says, writing at four
p.m., " London, 90, Captain Mundy, has just fired a
signal-gun, and hoisted the blue peter at the fore.
4.20 p.m., Sidon, 22, Captain Goldsmith, has just
hoisted the blue peter at the fore. Prince Regent and
Leopard are qniet. At all events, the ships are on the
qui vive, and, with the. exception of the London, which
ship is still above 150 short, are fully manned, and
ready for any service.
We have intelligence from Malta to the 14th inst.
The Wasp, 14, screw-ship, Commander Lord Joha Hay,
had arrived with dispatches from Constantinople, to the
effect, it was believed, that the nearer Admiral Dun-
das's fleet was to the Dardanelles the more satisfactory
it would be to the Turks, and the more advantageous to
the preservation of the peace of Europe. The gallant
admiral's fleet was in the highest state of excellence, and
perhaps there never was a small force so united and so
effective for any service it might be called upon to
perform.
The detail of the British force in the Mediterranean
is nearly as follows :--

HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE.

This renowned Theatre is to open. This is a fact.
A project, which promises the best, is on foot for the
commencement of a new season. Several spirited indi-
viduals, among whom may be reckoned Mr. Puzzi (so
well known as connected with her Majesty's Theatre
for so many years), Messrs. Robinson and Nugent (offi-
cials connected with the establiShment for very long pe-
riods), and others, men of capital, and parties interested,
have made an offer, by means of which, and with the
concurrence and substantial aid of the numerous body of
Box-Proprietors, the great result will be accomplished,
and the old opera still be secured to the public. All that
is wanting for success to this new measure is mutual for-
bearance for a short space ; as a company is formed and
ready, an orchestra engaged, intended .operations di-
gested, and all the details of the scheme already placed
on solid foundations. We should think that the owners
of the Theatre and the Proprietors of Boxes would not
be so lost to their own interests, as, by apathy or want
of courage, to interpose any difficulty, and not to throw
over the whole design, the spirit and protection of their
guarantee. Mr. Puzzi, so well known in the musical
circles of London, and whose aid as medium between
the artistic world and its aristocratic patrons is so inva-
lu%ble, is to be the principal of the new body of ma-
nagers. Union at this juncture, concert and good under-
standing, forbearance for a certain period, and the pro-
per encouraging guarantees, even the distinct impressions
of self-interest, are all that is wanting to render pro-
sperity certain. Remembering the ♦ast body dependant
on the Theatre, it would be pitiable, indeed, should a
more than temporary and retrievable difficulty befal it.

Prosecutor stated that about twelve o'clock on Satur-
day night he was on a pair of steps, near his shop door,
taking down a side of bacon, when he saw the prisoner
take up the piece of bacon produced, and put it under
her shawl. Just as she was walking off, he got down
from the steps and went after her, and asked her to
give him the bacon she had taken from his shop. She
then pulled the piece of bacon from under her shawl and
threw it on the counter. He then sent for a constable,
and gave her in charge.
In defence, the prisoner said she took the bacon with
the intention of having it weighed in the shop, and
while she was waiting the prosecutor taxed her with
stealing the bacon, and gave her in charge.
Mr. Bingham remanded her till Wednesday next.

with disappointment of the issue of writs to Bridg-
north and Blackburn. Party-spirit in each borough
will perhaps be satisfied with unseating a Member,
but the country generally looked on with a very
different concern to that. It hoped that the ut-
most possible instruction would be gained from
each case of proved corruption. We, therefore,
respectfully call upon the House to adopt Sir
JAMES GRAHAM'S suggestion, and to grant in
every case of proved bribery a Select Committee to
investigate its extent. As to dealing alike by all,
there is no more necessity for doing that than for
letting off all the guilty in a mutiny because some
are pardoned, or for not arresting the remainder
of a gang of thieves because some few 'have by
oversight escaped. The House cannot do more
wisely than to show by its future course that they
were surprised into the indulgence granted to
Bridgnorth and Blackburn.

SPAIN.

, M. Llorente, the Spanish Minister of Finance,
has just concluded a loan of more than 500 millions
of reals (more than 125 millions of francs) with the
'louse of Baring, of London. This sum is intended
to pay off the floating debt, which will be replaced
by a perpetual debt. The conditions of this loan
are very favourable to Spain, which has never been
able hitherto to obtain money but at an interest of
1,0, 12, and even 15 per cent. per annum. This
lean has been effected at 7 per cent. M. Sala-
ii?-anea, who seconded M. Llorente in this negotia-
tion, has just left London on his return to Madrid,
via, Paris. The affair will be immediately sub-
Zoitted to the approbation of the Cortes.

THE FIRE AT WINDSOR CASTLE.

ADDITIONAL PARTICULARS.
WINDSOR, MONDAY MORNING.

At 10 o'clock this morning an inquiry was held at, the
Castle, respecting the cause of the fire. It was attended
by Prince Albert, the Lord Chamberlain, and most of
the principal officers of the Royal Household. Among
the witnesses examined was Mr. James Braidwood, the
Superintendent of the London Fire Brigade, who, we
believe, was7of opinion that it arose from a defect in one
of the flues in the Prince of Wales's Tower. From the
calcined state of the brickwork forming the flues,
there is every appearance of a fire having been
smouldering for several days. The inquiry was strictly
private. A report, however, will be framed on the evi-
dence adduced, and that will be made public.
The London Fire Brigade, with their engines, con-
tinue to have charge of that portion of the Castle where
the fire broke out.

Some surprise has been expressed at the delay exhi-
bited in sending for the aid of the London brigade, two
hours having elapsed from the period of the fire being
discovered to the message being sent to town. It is con-
sidered just possible that, had Mr. Braidwood been ap-
prised of the outbreak at an earlier stage, he could have
got a number of engines drawn within an hour,
and could have rendered important service in pre-
venting the progress of the destructive element to the
extent it unfortunately did. In such a case of emer-
gency it might be expected that the authorities would
have taken care, when the London engines were sent for,
to have had the line clear for the special train. However,
such was not the case, its progress was much retarded by
goods train, and the brigade did not reach the Castle
until 2 o'clock.

The gates of the Castle are strictly closed to the pub
lic, and will remain so for a few days.
