DUTCH FUNDS.

packets Bengal have been imported this week. An im-
pression exists that rates of Rice have not arrived at
their lowest point. Cleaned Rice is fair in demand, and
prices are steady. Patna broken 108 6d to 118, mid and
good 12s to 15, and fine 17s to 19s, Arracan 101 to 115,
broken 8s sd, town-dressed Carolina 23s to 28s per owl.
SPIRITS.—OnIy small purchases have been made in
East India, Rum this week, and helders are disposed to
accept is 3d to is 3id for proof ; there is also a further
increase in supply at market. Leeward Island met with
little attention, and can be obtained at Is 4id to is 5d
proof, whilst several parcels are on offer. Fine Jamaica
is more in demand for all purposes, and former rates
are obtained without difficulty ; the supply is also still
moderate, but the lower sorts are abundant, and are
little wanted by shippers or home dealers, and there are
free sellers upon former low terms. The value of 20 to
29s per cent over proof is from 2s to 2s sd; 30 to 36s over
2s 6d to 3s, and better sorts 3s 2d to 4s. Demerara is
offered at rather lower terms, still only small sales
have been made at is 10d to 2s 2d for 28 to
40 per cent over proof. The stock of Rum is still
much above the average of years. In the Brandy
market there has again been ranch actirity; prices
keep on the advance, and the stock of old sots is much
reduced. There are still many buyers for arrival, and
deliveries for home trade purposes continue large. We
quote Cognac best brands of the vintage of 1848 at
4s 2d to 4. 4d, 1847 ditto 4s 8d to 48 10d, 1846 ditto
5s 8d to 5s 10d, 1845 ditto 6s to 6s 2d, inferior sorts
2s 8d to 43, Bordeaux 2s 4d to 2. 6d. For Geneva the
market is still firm at Is 9d to Is 10d for ord, and at
2s 3d to 3s 3d for fine. A fair sale exists for British
Corn Spirit at 9s Bd, and Gin at 8s to 8s 6d for 17 to 22
per cent under proof.
SPICES.—Former ;rates are insisted upon for black
Pepper, but only a limited business eas been concluded,
and the market has been better supplied this week. At
public sale 734 bags Singapore were only in part sold,
good clean black at 211c1 to lid, grey 2d to 2d, and
damaged 2id to 2id ; 230 bags clean Sumatra went at 2jd
to lid for sound. The value of Malabar is 2id to 3kd
per lb. For white late rates are obtained, and 278 bags of
Singapore at suction all sold—middling and good mid-
dling rather dingy went at 4id to 4i, and at 4d to 4id
for damaged. The value of Pod is from 35. to 50s
per cwt, but there are few buyers. Pimento has been
much in demand, and stiffer rates are paid; there is
only a limited supply at market. At auction 240
bags went briskly, good at qd to 44d, low middling
and good middling 4ed to 40, good ordinary coarse
4id per lb. Mace is less wanted, and the sup-
ply having been upon a larger scale; prices suffered
a depression of Id to 2d. At public sale 26 chests were
sold, good pale damp at 2s 4d to 2s 6d, middling red 2s
to 2. 3d, low dark is 5d to is 6d. With brown Nut-
megs the market has been more freely supplied, and
rather lower rates have been accepted for middling and
inferior sorts, but better kinds terms.realisedofffuelrleci

whereas in the value of better kinds no variation is appa-
rent. At auction 320 pkgs were only in part sold at from
5/. to 101 17s for good and fine, and at 31 10s to

supported. At public sale 100 bags of Honduras were
sold, Silvers at from 3s 7d to 4s Id, black 4s to ss,
whereas 65 bags Mexican were mostly taken in at 3s 8d
to 3. 10d for black.
FRUIT.—The demand for Currants continues good,
both for home trade and exportation. Some of the
importers have withdrawn their samples, and refuse to
sell unless at a further advance of is per cwt. By the last
report of she Board of Trade, it appears that the con-
sumption of Currants for the seven months ending the
sth August exceeds that of the same period in 1848 by
32,266 cwt. Owing to the scarcity of Turkey Fruit
there has been a good deal of business doing in old
Valencia Raisins for shipping, for which they are ex-
ceedingly well adapted, being dry and in good conditien.
On Tuesday the first cargo New arrived, and was divided
amongst the trade at 465. The new Turkey Pulled Figs
tetehed from 60s to 85s, and Sultanas 755.
SALTPETRE.—A good business has been concluded in

orders have been completed. The rates paid are
27s to 27s 6d, and for forward delivery a fair
business had been concluded at 26s 9d to 275. At

HEREFORD MUSICAL FESTIVAL.
HERE roan, THURSDAY.—The Elijah oratorio
yesterday morning attracted a numerous and highly
respectable auditory. There was a considerable
influx of carriages into the city in the morning, and
at the commencement of the oratorio the interior of
the beautiful cathedral presented a brilliant appear-
ance. The gallery at the west end of the cathedral
(the highest price seats) was well filled, chiefly by
fashionably-dressed ladies, but the aisles and floor were
not so fully occupied. The Bishop of Hereford, with a
large party, was present, and occupied reserved seats
at the foot of the gallery. The oratorio was on the
whole exceedingly well performed, and although so
recently given at the Birmingham festival, calls for
some notice. The part of Elijah was taken by Mr.
Phillips, who, we regret to add, was very unwell, and
was hardly equal to the arduous task allotted to him.
The sound judgment displayed by him, however,
made up for an apparent want of power. The
air, "If with all your hearts," by Mr. Lockey,
well suited the compass of his voice. The soothing
accompaniment of the band was beautifully rendered
The scene between the widow and Elijah was well
pourtrayed by Madame Castellan and Mr. Phillips,
and the dramatic effect of certain portions of it was
finely interpreted, especially in the prophet's prayer,
" Lord, my God." The recitative and chorous, "As
God, the Lord of Sabaoth, livetb," afforded a rich treat.
The choruses were very effectively given, as also the
succeeding choruses of the Priests of Baal. In these
Mendelssohn has employed the larger wind instru:
meats very freely, and they appeared occasionally to
overwhelm the voices. Phillips gave the beautiful
prayer, "Lord God of Abraham," with great feeling;
and the succeeding delightful quartett, by the
Misses Williams, Mr. Lockey, and Mr. Machin,
"Cast thy burden upon the Lord," was rendered with
a fitting devotion, and was repeated by desire of the
Lord Bishop. In the scene between the prophet
and the youth (represented by Miss A. Wil-
liams), preceding the rising of the cloud from
the sea, the audience appeared completely carried

this term because none other can convey the Aetnr.udWilliams was "beautiful,' we we employ
impres-
sion created by it. The descriptive gathering of the
storm, " Behold, a little cloud ariseth now," created a
thrilling sensation. The splendid chorus, " Thanks
be to God," was interpreted with great correctness,
though we should have- preferred it taken a little
faster. It was encored. • There was an interval of a
quarter of an hour between the first and second
parts. The fine solo, "Hear ye, Israel," was given
to Madame Castellan, whose clear ringing voice told
most effectively, while her pronunciation was per-
fect. Miss M. 'Williams, as Jezabel, shone pre-emi-
nently in the recitatives, interrupted by the answer-
ing choruses, and commencing " Have ye not
heard." The concluding behest, to "Do unto him
as he bath done," was magnificent. In the following
chorus, " Woe unto him," the chorus appeared
to be overpowered by the band. In the delicious
trio, " Lift thine eyes," generally regarded as the
gem of the oratorio, and which was sung by Miss A.
Williams, Miss Poole, and Miss M. Williams, the
liquid voices of the fair vocalists appeared to float
along in the vaulted building, and lingering there to
give an angelic sweetness to the harmony, not of
this earth. A critical ear could detect a gradual de-
cline in the voices—which of course were unaccom-
panied—but as each singer gave way, the fault was
not generally observed. Of course it was encored,
and the succeeding beautiful chorus, "He
watching over lirael," was very delightfully
given. The divine contralto air, " Oh, rest in the
Lord" was delivered by Miis M. Williams with
exquisite sweetness, and in the best, taste. It was
with difficulty that the audience could repress the
inclination to: give vent to their gratification in
audible sounds : it was repeated by request of the
Bishop. The wonderful chorus " Behold God the
Lord, passed by," was magnificent. Mr. Phillips
was deservedly encored in the 'air " For the
mountains shall depart;" and Mr. Lockey. in
the song " Then shall the righteous rejoice."
The quartett, " 0, come every one that thirsteth,"
by Misses Williams, Mr. Lockey, and Mr. Machin,
was also encored. The collection at the doors of the
cathedral amounted to 2671., being an increase of 301.
on the first day. In the evening there was a miscel-
laneous concert at the Shire-hall. Today we have
at the cathedral parts of Spohr's oratoria Calvary,
with a selection from Beethoven's " Service in C,"
Rossini's Stabat Mater, and three or four other stray
pieces. Madame Castellan sings' *. With verdure
clad," from the Creation; and Mr. Sims Reeves
" Sound an alarm," from Juas Maccabaus. The last
, concert will be given this evening.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, Sept. 13.

(Before Mr. WITHAM and a Bench of Magistrates.)
Jemima Hewitt, aged 30, a married woman, was
indicted for having stolen a watch of the value of 81.,
the property of John Reveil, frc►m his person.
Mr. O'Brien appeared *or the prisoner.

The evidence the prosecutor, which was given
through the medium of an interpreter, went to show
the following facts :—He is the proprietor of an
" hotel," No. li, Norton-street, Abrylebone, and at
about twelve o'clock on the night of the 21st ult., as
he was walking up Regent-street in the company of
a friend of the name of Noverio, they were met by
the woman at the bar, who was accompanied by an-
other woman. The women suddenly stopped them,
and before he was able to release himself from the
grasp of the prisoner, she had caught hold of the
watchguard of the prosecutor, and giving it a quick
jerk, it broke. The prosecutor at once put his hand
into his waistcoat-pocket,and of course discovered that
his watch was gone. He was then in the act of reaching
forward to catch the prisoner, but was frustrated in
the attempt by the other woman throwing herself
upon him, so as to afford the prisoner time to effect
her escape. Whilst he was endeavouring to free
himself from this incumbrance the prisoner was seen
to hand the watch to two men who bad been looking
on at the whole transaction. No sooner had this
been accomplished than the second woman relaxed her
hold, and the prosecutor then sprang forward, secured
the prisoner, and in due time gave her into the cus-
tody of the police. A search was then made for the
other woman, as well as for the two men, but neither
of these persons was to be found, nor had any tidings
of the watch been since obtained.

In the cross-examination of the prosecutor it was
elicited that the " hotel" of which he is the proprietor

is not a licensed house, and moreover that it is under
the management of a French woman, to whom he is
not married, and furthermore that the establishment
consisted of a number of young French women.

M. Noverio confirmed the statement which the
prosecutor had given as to the history of the transac-
tion. He also stated that he was himself a hairdresser,
carrying on his business at 14, Sherrard•street,

Golden square.
Mr. O'BRIEN addressed the jury on behalf of the
prisoner, and contended that there had been a discre-
pancy between the statements of the prosecutor and
his witness Noverio as to the moment when the watch
had been taken ; for whilst the one said that he had
laid hold of the prisoner before he had missed his
watch, the other stated that it was not until the
watch was discovered to have been taken that the
prosecutor had seized the prisoner. Under these
circumstances the prisoner, he submitted, was fully
entitled to an acquittal.
Mr. WITHAM, in the course of his recapitulation of
the evidence, said that, without doubt, the prosecutor
had made a misrepresentation to the Court, when he
described himself as being an "hotel-keeper." What
proved to be the fact ? Why, that the house was
neither more nor less than a "common lodging
house"—even, indeed, if it were nothing worse—for
young French women. However, let the house be
what it might, that was no justification for the daring
robbery which the prosecutor stated had been com-
mitted upon him. The jury, therefore, would direct
their attention to the whole of the testimony which
had been given, and then say whether it was or was
not sufficient to warrant their bringing in a verdict
of guilty.
The jury consulted for a short time, and then gave
a verdict of Guilty.
.Mr. WITHAM then said, that he had no doubt what-
ever but that the prisoner was one of those impudent
and daring prostitutes who went about the streets at
a late hour at night with her bullies for the purpose
of robbing any person who might happen to fall in her
way.

One of the jurymen here rose and said, that he
himself thoroughly understood the French language,
and by that knowledge he was enabled to say that
the interpreter, who was a German, had failed to give
a faithful translation of all the different parts of the
prosecutor's statement. With respect to the moment
at which the watch had been missed by him, the pro-
secutor had distinctly stated that he had missed his
watch before he had seized the woman.
The interpreter denied that he had misrepresented
any single word of the evidence, and besought the
Learned Judge to protect him from such an un-
just attack as that which had been made upon his
veracity.
Mr. O'BRIEN, upon this, submitted that if the jury
had arrived at their verdict upon a wrong statement
of the evidence, it was quite clear, if the representa-
tions of the juryman were correct, that the verdict
was not a legal verdict, because it had been given
upon the version of the evidence which had just been
put forth by the juryman, and not upon the evidence
as rendered by the interpreter, which, in truth, was
the only evidence upon which the jury ought to give
their verdict.
Mr. Wrrunt observed, that under the peculiar cir-
cumstances of the case, he would allow the jury to
reconsider their verdict, if they thought such a course
would further the ends of justice.
The jury, however, did not think such a course
at all necessary. They were quite satisfied upon the
matter.

Mr. WITHAM thereupon sentenced the prisoner to
nine months' imprisonment with hard labour.
INDECENT PUBLICATIONS.—THB QUEEN V. FREDERICK

HUNT.

In this case the defendant was indicted for the
public exposure and vending of indecent and obscene
publications for sale at his shop, No. 66, Castle-street,
Leicester- square.
Mr. BALLANTINE now said that he was instructed
on the part of the prosecution to state that the jury
and the Court would, he was happy to say, be spared
a detail of the disgusting and offensive facts of this
case. He was informed that it was the intention of
the defendant to plead " guilty," and thus there would
be no necessity for going into the circumstances. All
prosecutions of this character were of the utmost im-
portance in a moral point of consideration, but there
was a still higher and a more important bject to he
gained, namely, the prevention of the offence. If,
then, the prevention of a recommission of the
offence only could be attained, every good end would
have been accomplished without entering into any
disgusting details, which, of course, would find their
way through the ordinary channels to the eye of the
public, were they gone into. In the present instance
he was in a position to say that the prosecution
would be amply satisfied by the defendant entering
into recogniaances to the amount of 1001. to be of
good behaviour for the space of twelve months, and
to come up to receive the judgment of the Court
when called upon for that purpose.
Mr. PARRY, who appeared for the defendant, said
that the course which had been taken by his Learned
Friend was most forbearing. His client would, of
course, most gladly comply with what was required
of him.

The defendant then, on being arraigned, pleaded
Guilty, and entered into the necessary recognizances.
Mr. WirliAM directed that the whole of the books
and prints which had been seized by the police on the
defendant's premises should be burnt.

heard the bed-room door broken open, and she saw a
number of persons, among whom was the defendant,
in her mistress's bed room. She did not see any
violence committed, as she got out of the way by
going to the top of the house.
Thomas Lindon, the manager of the café, said
just before the occurrence he was informed that
two rough fellows had entered the coffee room.
He went to them and spoke a few words, upon which
one of the Men went to the door and whistled.
Immediately afterwards the defendant and up-
wards of a dozen ruffianly-looking fellows rushed into
the house, and some of them forced their way upstairs.
Witness attempted to collect the waiters and some
persons who were in the house to protect it, for the
purpose of opposing these persons, but he could not
do an 3 thing effectual. His mistress was ultimately
pushed out into the street.
The waiter Jules gave similar evidence.
It was admitted by one of the witnesses that some
proceedings had previously occurred, in which the
complainant and her party bad been overpowered and
turned out of the house.

Mr. Child said, as he gathered from what had fallen
from the Bench that it was intended to send the case
to a jury, he should not enter into any explanation of
the extraordinary circumstances which had led to the
hostile proceedings between the parties. As far, how-
ever, as the assault was concerned, he would say that
no assault was committed, as the complainant stood
in the position of an intruder in the premises, with no
lawful right to be there, and that what was done was
merely to use reasonable force to remove her from the
house.

The defendant was held to bail, and a cross sum-
mons against the complainant for an assault on the
defendant's wife, was arranged to stand over for the
present.
