MANSION-HOUSE.-(THIS DAY.)

This morning a youth, about 17 years of age, named
Charles Foley, who was weeping most bitterly, was brought
before the Lord Mayor in custody of City Police Constable
b 3, charged with having robbed his employer, Mr. Moses
Levy, of Aldgate, of a quantity of buttons.
Mr. Levy stated that he had from time to time lost a large
quantity of buttons, to the amount of several pounds ; and as
the prisoner was the only person in his establishment who had
access to them, he strongly suspected him of being the thief.
Indeed, when taxed with the robbery, he did not deny it, but
refused to say in what manner he had disposed of them. As,
however, he (Mr. Levy) could prove nothing definite against
him, and as this might operate as a warning to him in future,
he would not press the matter any further.
The LORD MAYOR, after a suitable admonition, then dis-
charged the prisoner, whose outward appearance indicated real
contrition.

London, England, 1838-11-02

BOW-STREET.-(THIS DAY.)

William Wood, a brush-maker, was brought before Mr.
TWYFORD. charged with stealing a Petersham coat, the pro-
perty of Messrs. Wallis and Collins, 131, Drury-lane, under
the following circumstances:—

Dennis Curtis, aged thirteen, stated that the prisoner and
another man came to his master's shop last night at seven
o'clock, and asked the price of a coat, which they refused to
buy, as they objected to the sum demanded for it ; and after
they had gone away, having missed the Petersham coat pro-
duced, he ran after them, and overtook the prisoner with it on
him, walking very leisurely down Great Queen-street. He
instantly laid hold of him, and although he received several
hard knocks to make him desist, he was determined not to be
overcome, and he still held fast, until some persons came to
his assistance, who called March, a constable, and he was
taken to the station-house.

Mr. TWYFORD said the little fellow was a great treasure to
his employers, and he deserved great credit for his courageous
conduct.
The witness said that he was at first afraid that the prisoner
would have ran away with him as well as the coat, but when
the people surrounded him it inspired him with courage.
The prisoner was fully committed for trial.
Julius Maire and Adam Hank, Germans, 6, Church-street,
Soho, were charged on suspicion with stealing a quantity of
books and other articles, the property of two other Germans,
named Hasselt and Kleinshmidt, value 1

It appeared from the evidence which which was given
through the medium of an interpreter, that the complainants
lately arrived in this country with introductory letters to the
Duke of Cambridge, in whose service they expected to be
employed, and being in the habit of taking refreshments at
the dining-rooms, 7, Nassau-street, which are kept by ano-
ther foreigner named Passerge, they employed the prisoner to
pawn the property in question, as their cash was beginning to
run low. They took away the trunks as desired on Wednes-
day last, and, returning in the evening, brought back the
sum of 365. the entire amount for which they sold the property.
On being questioned why they sold them, they said, such were
the instructions they had received, and the books were dis-
posed of to Messrs. Black and Armstrong, of Covent-Garden,
which account, upon inquiry, was found not to be true.
In answer to the charge the prisoners said, they disposed of
the whole of the trunks to a Jew who sold clothes, but as it
was dark they could not tell where the house was situated.
They were then remanded.

THE HARVEST.

Essvc.—The morning of Monday last having proved pro-
pitious, harvest commenced generally in this county, with the
exception of the more northern parts, and even there the
corn is fast approaching to a state of maturity. During the
week, wheat, barley, oats, and peas have been carted in good
condition, and we shall not be surprised to learn that a sample
of each is offered in our market this day. The weather, so
favourable at the time we write, to the inning of the crop, is
not less so to the harvestman, who experiences the refreshing
breezes which the lateness of the season brings.—Chelmsford
Chronicle.

EARLY HARVEST. —A small quantity of barley, belonging
to Mr. John M‘Kay, Kirktown of Durris, was cut on Monday
last. The grain is of excellent quality, and is fully ripe.—
Courant.

Wheat of this year's harvest has already appeared in the
corn market of Paris. The grain is large, and of good quality,
but rather pale ; a peculiarity which the farmers attribute to
the quantity of rain that fell between the period when it was
in flower, and that of the ripening.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

B 0 W- S TREE T.
DELICATE INQUlRY.—Yesterday Henry Griss and James
Selway, both serjeants in the F division of police, appeared be-
fore Sir F. ROE, Mr. Twvvorto, and Mr. FARRANT. a county
Magistrate, to answer the complaint of Elizabeth Poulter, a
very fine-looking young woman, the wife of a dealer in marine
stores, residing in Great Wild-street, Lincoln's-Inn-Fields.
The complaint was referred to the Magistrates by the Com-
missioners of Police.

From the evidence of the complainant it appeared, that,
last Sunday week, between five and six o'clock, she was
passing through Chichester-rents, Chanccry-lane, when she
felt some one pull her shawl behind, and upon turning round
she observed the defendants, one of whom said, " Won't you
speak to us ?" She told them that they were mistaken, upon
which Griss said, " You were not so proud when I had you in
custody in Lincoln's Inn-fields." She then turned round
and said, " What do you mean ?" The other defendant then
said, Oh, you know all about it ; you were taken near Alder-
man Copeland's, in company with a young man, for cat-steal-
ing." (The witness further deposed to an indecent expres-
sion used by the defendant, reflecting on her chastity.) She
then told them that her husband should report their conduct at
the station-house, and nn reaching home she stated what bad
passed to her husband, who went with her, the same evening,
and lodged her complaint at the station.
Sir F. RoE—lt is necessary I should ask you, and I do so
without the slightest wish to hurt your feelings; is it true that
you were taken into custody upon any charge ?
Complainant—Your Worship, I never was in custody in
rsy life.
Mr. SAndreck, the superintendent, deposed that he was in
the station-house when the complainant came to state her
charge against the serjeants. She was accompanied by her
husband, who was very angry, and much more excited than
she appeared to be.
The defendants denied the charge, and declared that they
were not near Chichester-rents at the time in question.
Inspector Musgrove proved that they ought to have been on
duty in Chancery-lane on the evening referred to, but they
had no right to be in each other's company unless they had
met by accident.
The defendants then called two or three constables forward
to };rove that they were in Drury-lane at the time spoken to
by the complainant, but the Magistrates were of opinion thi.t
this evidence was by no means conclusive in favour of 0 e
defendants.
The defendants then said that they would prove that 0 e
complainant was a woman of very light character who was
not worthy belief. One of them then stated that an improper
intimacy existed between the complainant and a married man
belonging to the force, whose name was Jocelyn, and who lived
in the station-house in Pickett-place, Strand. It could be
proved that the complainant used a short time Iwo to pay con-
stant visits to Jocelyn at the station-house, unknown to her
husband, aO at a time when Mrs. Jocelyn w.s in the
be_countryad_
on account of her health. She had left three children behind
London, England, 1838-08-18

HARVEST IN SCOTLAND

Monday Mr. Fulton in Jameston, parish of Kirkoswald, on
the property of the most noble the Marquis of Ailsa, com-
menced cutting barley : a good crop ; and on the same day a
fiold of here was cut on the farm of Seafield, the property of
Lord Ailsa, and possessed by Mr. Laurence Marshall. The
grain is of excellent quality, is a new kind, and was introduced
into this country only about two years since from Ireland.
Also, on same day, a crop of good Italian barley was cut
down in a field in Midsands, by Mr. Robert M‘Kill.—Ayr
Observer.

NEW NOVEL BY THE " DESENNUYEE."
This day, in 3 vols. post Sm.
/NHL WOMAN of the WORLD.
..11_ By the Authoress of " The Diary of a Desennuyee."
" The characters of the heroine, and most of the pei sonages who
figure in these lively and satirical pages, are evidently drawn from
the life. The heroine, a heartless plotter, with great talent, a
beautiful form, and a suspected reputation, is admirably pourtrayed.
Among the other dramatis personae will be found, the Duke and
Duchess of Havering, a Cabinet Minister and his wife—the Duchess
of Kimbolton, a fashionable Aspasia—Count Flasgaski, a foreign
exquisite—Lord Carpynter, a political prig—Lord Wexford, a dis-
tinguished gourmand—with many others, the originals of which
will be easily recognised."—San.

A SACRED VOW.

An old man, with a bald head, and long white beard,
having altogether a most patriarchal appeannee,wasbrought
before the Correctional Police, under an accusation of men-
dicancy. President—You were taken up in the act of
introducing yourself in a house for the purpose of begging.
Accused—lt is quite true ; falsehood bath never yet sul-
lied my lips. I have made a solemn vow. President—
Ypu are the more guilty that 20 francs were foUnd on your
person, and 290 at your lodgings. Accused--All you say
is quite true ; but the sum is not quite sufficient for the
performance of my vow. President—What do you mean
by your vow ? Accused—l shall state the case to you,
kind Sir. I had a wife—she was the plague of my life
for 40 years—she it was whO made my hair and beard grow
grey, as you see ; at the age of 67 it is not natural for a
man to be so grey. Therefore, I made a vow that if God
would kindly take her from rne, I would go and burn 24
wax tapers in his good city of Rome. Now, just oie
months after I had made my vow, I had the good fortune
to lose my wife. You see I must not be ungrateful, and
must keep my word. I promised God 24 wax-lights, and
he shall have them in Isis good city of Rome. This is why
I went about begging ; I require 500 francs. This is a
sacred matter, is it not ? You surely will not do anything
to cause me to break my vow. [The tribunal sentencedt ti

ELECTION COMMITTEES.

(Continued from our First Edition of yesterday.)
BELFAST.

He did not contend that the electors should be precluded
from the following up the investigation as to the qualifications
of the sitting Members, and as to the clwges of bribery.
But before they went into a scrutiny to ascertain who had
the majority of the votes, he should show that the majority
could not be in favour of Tennant and Dunbar, because they
were disqualified. Mr. Thessiger had said that he should
disencumber the case of Mr. Gibson, and he (Mr. H.) would
disencumber it of the other two.—( A laugh.)

Mr. THESSIGER objected to this 'course, and the question
was argued at great length, and the Committee retired
to deliberate. The decision at length was, that the
Committee would not interfere with the course proposed to be
pursued by the Counsel for the petitioners.
Mr. THESSIGER said that he would proceed with proof of
Mr. Gibson's disqualification, and called a witness to prove the
service of notice on that gentleman to produce his qualifi-
cation.

Mr. HARRISON proposed an arrangement respecting th•
deeds to be put in to prove the qualification of Mr. Gibson,
in this instance, and of Messrs. Tenant and Dunbar after-
wards ; to which Mr. Austin (who was with Mr. Thessi,ger)
replied, " You are too old, and I am not young enough for
that."—(A laugh.)
Several deeds were then put in, and amongst others a will
was produced by an officer of the Prerogative Court in Dublin,
who being asked his name, said " Henry T. Higgins—that is,
I mane T, for shortness."—(Great laughter.)
The Committee adjourned at half-past three.

MARKETS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE.
There are very large arrivals of all kinds of Grain reported this
'track, and a considerable quantity of Flour. The Wheat trade main-
tains Monday's terms. Barley continues very dull. Beans and Pease
re Unaltered. The large quantity of Irish Oats has rendered this
lastdull, and last day's prices are hardly supported. Flour supports
'est quoted rates.

TALLOW MARKET.
P.Y.C. today continues at 495. Ad.
COLONIAL MARKETS.
Very little business was done to-day; we had not a single public
"10 of any magnitude, owing to the continuance of this very severe
'weather.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, FEB. 15.
The business transacted at our Cotton Market this day, was to a
limited extent only, and as American descriptions are offering very
Plentifully, prices of this sort are somewhat depressed. The total sales
atnottnt to 2,000 bales. 1,650 Americans, 63At07 % ; • 150 Pernam,
9i i 200 Surat, 4i to 51. Total, 2,000.
London, England, 1838-08-20

HOP MARKET.

The market is very quiet, and but little business doing.
Prices arc nominal. The accounts from different parts of the
country are good, and the duty is 180,0001.

PROVISION MARKET.

Most of the commodities in this market are quiet, bordering
on dulness. Prices continue without any variation.
TALLOW MARKET.

P. Y. C. 48s. on the spot and 475. to arrive, and but little
doing.

COLONIAL MARKETS.

Nothing doing by public sale up to the time we went to
press. For the week we have a fair business advertised, but
very little for to-morrow. Coffee, 1,550 bags, Ceylon.
Sugar 126 casks, East India. Some Cochineal, and 3,500
bales of Wool; that is all. The imports are not large, and
the exports continue light.

NEWCASTLE CORN MARKET.—Auci. 18.

We had again a moderate supply of Wheat at Market to-
day from the farmers, but the coasting arrivals continue good,
and the weather being fine, caused the trade to rule exceed-
ingly dull at a decline of full 2s. per quarter on the prices of
last Saturday. Barley met a fair demand at last week's rates.
Oats were in moderate supply, and taken off at late prices.
Rye was enquired after, and again Is. per quarter higher.
Malt sold freely, the best samples rather exceeding our quo-
tations. Beans and Pesse also were the turn dearer. Flour
was in limited request, and our quotations could with difficulty
be realized.

THE STEAM-SHIP LIVERPOOL.

(From the Liverpool Correspondent of the Morning Post.)
LIVERPOOL, Nov. 3.—Her stock of fuel is now composed
of 640 tons of coal, 490 of which are the best Welsh, and the
remaining 150 are those which she had on board when she
sailed hence, so that her stock of fuel now is greater by 70
tons than when she made the first attempt, without taking into
consideration that the Welsh coal will go much further than
that which she took from here.

She is intended to sail positively this day from Cove, and in
addition to her having on board Mr. Shaw, the gentleman
who accompanied the Royal 'William on her first trip, an
eminent engineer is also to go with her, so that any defects in
her machinery may be remedied on her arrival at her desti-
nation.

(From the Dublin Correspondent of the Morning Post.)
The Liverpool steamer, which put into Cove from stress of
weather and supposed want of fuel, starts 'again this evening
( Friday), at five o'clock, for New York. There were upwards
of 330 tons of coals on board, of which the engineers were
ignorant I Mr. Shaw, the marine manager of the Company,
proceeded from Liverpool on hearing of the untoward delay,
and sails with her. He offered any of the passengers their
money if they chose to go on shore and proceed by another
vessel; but all remained, fully sat;.?fied of the vessel's capabi-
lities and of the skill of Captain Fayrer, !be Commander.

MARYLEBONE-(THIS DAY.)

BRUTAL ASSAULT.—A ruffian named Switzer, having
the appearance of a foreigner, was placed at the bar, charged
with the following cowardly and brutal attack on a young girl,
named Ellen Jones :

The complainant stated she was walking through Chapel-
street yesterday evening, when the prisoner walked up to her,
and seizing hold of the lower part of her dress, endeavoured to
pull it over her head. She resisted, and he then struck her a
violent blow on the breast, by %hich she was knocked to the
ground. She got away, but he followed her, and struck her
again several times. She declared she never saw him before,
nor had she given him any provocation.
Police Constable 138 D, said the prisoner bad also com-
mitted a violent assault on him, when conveying him to the
police office.
He was fined 50s. for assaulting the female, and 30s. for the
attack on the police.
