POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

(From the Limerick Chronicle of Nov. 19.)
The _Leonidas transport is expected at Kingstown to
convey two companies of the Royal Artillery under Major
Rudyard to Barbadoes. The transport is to call at Cove
for detachments of the 19th, under Captain Burne, and
also of the 36th Regiment.
The Maitland transport, Lieutenant Davison, and
Roslin Castle transport, Lientenant Derritnan, are ex-
pected at Cork, to embark the i;i6th Regiment for Jamaica,
and to bring home the 33d.
The Lord Wellington transport, Lieutenant Woodman,
is expected in Cork, to embark another division of the
69th Regiment for Barbadoes, and return with the 35th.
Colonel Godby leaves Dublin in a few days for Quebec,
to command the Artillery. His situation at the Pigeon.
house will not be filled up.
The Ist King's Dragoon Guards were under orders last
week to embark at an hour's notice for England, but their
removal now is not expected.
Major-General 'Macdonell obtained leave to move his
head-quarters from Armagh to Belfast, but could not ob-
tain a suitable house, so that for the present all remains
stationary.
The 16th Regiment of Foot has left Calcutta for Chin-
surah, where it will remain for sometime. The 341 r or
Buffs, was on its way to Calcutta, having left Ghazapore,
for the Presidency, in April.
A regiment is to proceed from the Mauritius to India,
and will be replaced by the 28th Foot in the course of
next spring. It is supposed that Sir John Byng will have
his regiment, the 29th, sent to that station from the Isle
of France, and the Bengal Presidency is named as their
destination.

MANSION-HO USE.

Toaacco.—There are no purchases of consequence to
report; the new Tobacco is good quality but bad colour.

It is intended henceforward that troops mounting guard,

It has been agreed to by the persons at the Horse
Guards, and War Office, that all Lieutenants, of sixteen
years standing—viz. of the year 1815, shall have the
option of retiring on half-pay as Captains. The only
point now at issue, and which prevents the order from be-
ing promulgated, arises from the difference of opinion as
to the rate of half-pay, Lord Hill insisting o❑ 75., or the
full daily allowance, whereas Sir henry Parnell will not
hear of more than ss. per day being granted.

LONDON MARKETS.

(From the London Few Price Current of yesterday.)

Socan.—The demand for Muscovado last week was
limited ; the total purchases, including the public sales,
were estimated at 2,800 hhds. and trs. ; the public sale
of St. Lucia, on Friday, went off with briskness, and at
high prices for the coloury descriptions, the brown sold
firmly at Market rites. The stock of West India Sugar is
now 47,868 hhds. and trs., which is 2,920 less than last
year. The stock of Mauritius 90,556 bags being 65,434
more than last year. The delivery of West India Sugar
last week 2,821 hhds. and trs., being 68 less than last
year. The delivery of Mauritius 8,396 bags, being 5,020
more than in the corresponding week of 1830. At the
close of the Market this afternoon the estimated sales were
800 hhds. and trs., at full prices, and we think the
Market more firm, owing, no doubt, to the fact that not
5,000 bags Mauritius remain in the hands of the im-
porters, and they have, for a series of months, been th-
cause of the continual decline of West India Sugars. In
Refined the only goods in demand are still the fine parcels
of the double-refined bounty, they meet a ready sale; in
brown Lumps there is much heaviness, and sales reported,
free at 595. Molasses 235. We think there is more in-
quiry after Rt fined goo,ls, on account of orders by the
Foreign Moils, crashed at 31s. ; low lumps can this even-
ing he purchased freely at 595., and that price is only
offered for good qualities, good single loaves sold at 625.
Molasses 235.

EAST INDIA SUGAR.-Last week the Mauritius went
off heavily, and prices were only supported by buying in
many lots ; the following were the particulars :-Ord.
brown 395. a 395. 6d. ; good brown 41s. a 41s. 6d. ; fine
brown 425. ; ord. yellow 435. Gd. a 445., mid, yellow

This day 243 chests Brazil Sugar sold at higher prices,
the great proportion Bahias ; brown 15s. Gd. a 17s , grey
and low white 19s. a 235. ; fine but soft white Pernam_
buco taken in at 265., and for which 255. was refused,_
Average price of Sugar 1/. 2s. 91d. per cwt.
COFFEE. -The demand for Coffee has again revived;
the inquiries, particularly yesterday, were general ; the
chief demand is for the very ordinary qualities of East In-
dia, good Samarang 535., and ordinary Batavia about the
same price ; parcels of St. Domingo, at public sale, 58$,
coloury, and 565. 6d. a 575. Gd. for good ordinary; and, by
private contract yesterday, 565. Gd. for fair quality, and for
Brazil pale 545. Gd. Jamaica awl other British Plantation
descriptions are little varied ; the ordinary qualities much in
demand, but few parcels offer. There were no public
sales of Coffee this day ; the inquiries after low descrip-
tions are continued; low Sumatra and Batavia sold last
week are realizing a profit of 2s. a 3s. per cwt. ; no ordi-
nary Jamaica left in the Market ; for good ordinary St.
Domingo 5Gs. has been refused ; and for coloury Brazil
and St. Domingo 58s. has been offered.
HUM, BRANDY, AND HoLnit..sns.--There is little al-
teration in the Rum Marker ; the chief purchases con-
tinue confined to Leewards, about Is, ld. The consump-
tion of Brandy continues to increase, on account of the de-
tnand for the prevention of cholera ; there is in conse-
quence more demand, and the holders hold with firmness,
In Geneva there is no alteration. This afternoon the in-
quiries after Brandy are continued ; the prices are about
Id. per gallon higher.
HEMP, FLAX, AND TALLow.-The demand for Tallow
has considerably increased, the prices are is. higher than
on Tuesday last; the quotation this evening is 425. 6d. a
425. 91. In Hemp or Flax there is little alteration.
IRISH PROVISIONS.-The import of Foreign Butter last
week was 4,416 casks, of Irish 13,737 firks. and 1,983
bales of Bacon. The Butter Market still continues in a
very depressed state, the weather being favourable for the
make of fresh, the demand from the country being very
limited, and a considerable import of Irish looked far;
these circumstances deter the gcheesemongers from pur-
chasing, but to supply their immediate wants. The fol-
lowing prices must be in a great degree considered nominal :
Fine Friesland at the quay, 1003. a 102 s. ; Carlow 955.
a 100 s. on board, 100. s. and 102 s. landed ; Cork and Li•
tnerick, 965. on board, 98s. landed ; Waterford, 935. a
955. on board, 91s. a 9G% landed ; Dublin, 925. on board,
945. a 955. landed ; Newry, 925. a 935. ; and Sligo,
945. on board, 91s. a 965. landed. Single Bacon must
he also quoted lower-say 525. a 535. for the primest
singed Waterford landed, and at 455. on board ; there are
several sellers of Waterford for the next three months' ship-
ment. Bale and tierce middles, 50s. a 525. landed. Fine
Irish Hams, 70s. a 755. ; and Bladder Lard, as to quality;
663. a 70s. landed. In Beef and Pork not inwth doing ;
some few sales of new India Pork have been made for this
awl next month's shipment, at 1155. a 117 s. 6d. on board.
INDIGO.-There is no alteration in Indigo; the Market
is dull, at the late Julia House sale prices.
Oms.-Oils generally are a shale lower, and but little

bussiness doing in them.
COTTON.—The Cotton Market is little varied ; the pur-
chases are still on a limited scale, they consist of 720
Surat, very ord. very fine 5-41 d. ; 40 Bengal, fair,
4,1. ; 130 Madras, good fair, 41-‘l. a 3id. ; 100 Bowed,

sifted, Sad. ; Malabar, 314-d. a 4d. ; Pimento, s,id. a 6d.
RlCE.—This day's puolie sale 650 bags Bengal Bice
screened, ISs. 61 a 19s. very good Bengal.
SALTPETRE.—SaItpetre is rather more firm, 38s. a :39s
rough, 40s. a 40s. 6d. East India refined.
FRUIT.—Last week ISO buts and 128 ertls. new Zante,
and 58 butts and 28 cede, new Cephalonia Currants were

PRICE 7D.

It will be recollected that a short time ago a
charge was brought before the LORD MAYOR against
the principal partner in the Pickled Fish Company,
for having defrauded a young man of a bill of ex-
change for 501., and that his Lordship discharged the
prisoner, as the bill not being due was not forth-
coming. Several applications were made since that
period against him, on account of numerous frauds
practised by him upon tradesmen, but the police have
been informed that he is in Scotland.
Yesterday a respectable tradeirrian, residing in
St. Paul's-church-yard, stated that Earle called at his
shop, arid tricked him in a very ingenious manner. A
gentleman, who had been long a customer, entered
the shop, and, at the same moment, in walked
Earle, and conducted himself in such a man-
ner as led the shopmen to suppose that he was a
friend to the customer. An order was the result of
the visit. It was executed, but not a farthing of the
price of the articles could be obtained, and it was
soon ascertained that the old customer had never
known, nor even seen, the new custoliie: before the
moment they went into the shop. The moment the
goods reached the counting-house of the " Pickled
Fish Company" they were despatched to the Com-
pany's" Uncle," in the adjoining street, and pledged,
and the witness found the pawnbroker so accommo-
dating as to sell them to him, without putting him to
any more trouble, for the money for which they
were deposited.
Mr. Hobler said, that the Pickled Fish Company
having disappeared, it was difficult to say what
course it would be most advisable to pursue.
Witness—l should, if I could catch him, prose-
cute at once, for the sake of the public. lam sure
that he will do a great deal of mischief to trades-
people, wherever he goes. He might have had at
my shop, goods, if be pleased, to the amount of
1001. or 150/.; for he acted the acquaintance of my
customer so well, that any body might have been
deceived.

Mr. Hobler said it would be an act of great public
kindness to prosecute such a person ; but, unfortu-
nately, there was no fund out of which to defray the
expense of following him to Scotland, and the cost
would be considerable.

The witness having learned that so long as he
should keep the goods which the head of the Pickled
Fish Company had procured from him, the case
would be tit for a jury, declared that he should be
always prepared for the new customer.
