GUILDHALL.

A coal-heaver, named John Parker, and William
Fletcher, a greengrocer and coal•dealer, residing in King's
Head-court, Gough-square, were placed at the bar un
der the following circumstances :
City Policeman 370 said that on Thursday evening
he perceived the prisoner Parker with a waggon, con-
taining a large quantity of coals, in Gough-square.
fie took one of the bags out, which he brought into
Fletcher's shop, and there emptied it ; the remainder his
delivered at the house of Mr. Macdowall, in Gough-
square. Suspecting that he purloined the bag, from
the quantity sent by his employer, he spoke to Parker.
who asked him to take some gin, and said, " Where is
the use of our kicking each other's shins, unless other
people set us on ?" The witness informed his sergeant
of the circumstances, who apprehended the prisoners.
Mr. Barreaud, coalanerchant, of Whitefriar's Wharf,
stated that he sent three tons of coal, by order, to
Mr. Macdowall. He had no knowledge of the prisoner
Fletcher, nor did he order the delivery of any coals to
him. Parker was in his (Mr. B.') employment.
Mr. Alderman PIRIE said he should adjourn the
further investigation of the ease to Thursday.
The prisoner Fletcher applied to be liberated on bail.
Mr. Alderman PIRIE replied that he could not think
of. granting the application. In those cases the receiver
was always worse than the thief.
Fletcher—l can get bail to any amount.
Mr. Alderman Plata—Such being the case, your
conduct in this matter is the more culpable.

'ill, prisoners were then removed to the Compter,
and ordered to be kept separate until Thursday.

BOIV.STREET.

Rebecca Mathew and Dorothea Jephson, sisters,
were yesterday brought before Mr. Twyford, charged
with stealing a quantity of linen and wearing apparel,
the property of Sir Joshua Rowe, Chief Justice of
Jamaica.

The prosecutor stated, that he had left in the month
of July last, several trunks containing wearing apparel,
belonging to the members of his family, at 36, Bedford-
street, Covent-garden, and a few days back two other
trunks, having come up from Exeter, he went to take
out some articles, when he found that property to a
considerable amount had been taken away, not only from
the trunks, that had been there for many months, but
also from those which arrived in town lately. The house
is let out for chambers, which the first named prisoner
had the care of; and on asking her if she knew how the
trunks had come to be broken open and plundered, she
said that she could not tell, as she had locked the door
every evening, and took the keys under her care.
Constable Oshinden, F division, proved that the other
prisoner told biro she was in the habit of frequenting
the chambers to assist her sister. And on searching
her, there were found sixteen pawnbroker's duplicates
upon her for wearing aparel, and other property belong-
ing to females.
The prosecutor observed, that from the dates on the
duplicatrs, the property appeared to have been pawned
shortly after the trunks were dep'sited in the chain-
bers, and he had reason to suppose they related to ar-
ticles which had been left in them.

The constable said that the duplicates; were the only
things he could at present produce, but he believed he
could procure further evidence if tittle was allowed for
that purpose.
The prisoners having denied they knew anything of
the property,

Mr. Tw;FonD ordered them to be remanded for the
present.

NOTICE TO MARINERS.
NEW LIOIIT- lIOUSE.—CoartEcTED INSTRUCT! Ns.—Tllo
following is a copy of a letter received at Lloyd's from
dated Nov. 27, 18-10 their agent at Bremen,
had the honour to transmit with last mail a
notice to mariners, published by the Government of this
city in regard to a second light-ship stationed in the River
weAer. On strict examination, one part has been consi-
dered not to be perfectly distinct. I beg leave, therefore,
to hand you, inclosed, a copy of a new notice, with the
translation annexed, requesting you to have the former
one cancelled, and the requisite publicity given to the
present.
" I have the honour to be, Sir, your most obedient hamb'e
servant,

(Signed) " B. PE A RKE S, British Consul.
" To William Dobson, Esq., Secretary of
Lloyd's, London."
l'ol'1" OF TOR NoTicF. REFFIRRND TO.
" A second light-vessel, designated and marked
4. Weser, No. 2," will be from the end of November of the
present year Minced in the Weser, near the Bremen Bea-
con, and near the entrance to the Wurster Channel, and
remain there tnoured anuual!y, as long as the navigation
is free from ice.

" From the aforesaid light-ship—
" A. The Bremen beacon bears S. by W. / W.
" B. rho two beacons on the hank, called Meier'
Leegd (or Leegor) is a line S E by E.
" C. The red buoy bears S. E.
" Ships which front necessity may be forced to enter
the Weser without pilot, have in coming in to pass near
and on the west side of the light-ship, not then immediately
to bring the I:ght-ship, No. t. N. A E., and keep her in
this, having to steer southerly from-her to the distance of
three-quarters of a German mile (fifteen to a degree), or
:lirce English miles (sixty to a degree). At this distance
the lightship, No. .1, will bear S. S. E., to which they
have direct to steer.
" When near the light-ship No, 2, it must be passed

on the east side, then steering S. E., keep the light-ship
No. 2 N. V. for about a quarter of a German or one Eng-
lish mile. then at that distance come to an anchor, at low
water. Withcut a pilot :hey should not proceed further.
" From the light-?hip No. 2 to the course of the
Western Cbanncl is S. E. by E., one and one-eighth of a
German mile, to the white buoy marked W. 3. From the
light-ship No. 2, going into the Ftddcrwater Channel, the
course is S.S.E., about one and one-eighth of a German
mile to the Salzhour Bank, or the buoy marked P.
Both light-ships are painted red, and their lights
are forty-two feet above the surface of the water. These
Ught-vessels during; the day have, instead of a flag, a red
ball at their mast heads, which signal to Ow vessels coming
in from sea distinguishes them from the Elbe light-vessel.

" Admiralty, 28th Nov., 1840.
" Sir,— I am commanded by my Lords Commissioners
of the Ad.niral.y to transmit to you herewith, for the in-
formation of the Committee for managing the affairs of
Lloyd's, tl:e copy of a notice issued by the Swedish Go-
vernment of the erection of two new lighthouses, the one
at Carlserona, the other at Landsert, at the entrance of
the Stockholm Archipelago.—l am, Sir, your most humble
servant, " JOHN BARROW.

" To William Dobson, Evq , Lloyd's.
" The I3oard of Nlarine Atfairs hereby notify for the di-
rection of navivators
" First—That a new lighthouse of stone has been
erected on Retkeppan, situated 55 deg. 56 min. lat. and
35 deg, so min. lon. east of Ferro, about two and three-
quarter German or geographical miles south of Rungsholm
Castle, opposite to Carlscrona, which lighthouse is pro.
vided with a reflected revolving light, showing within the
space cf six minutes three equally clear lights, with
dark intervals of the same duration ; the height of the
building is :32 feet above the rock. and that of the light
above the level of the sea 53 feet, in consequence of which
the latter might be visible in clear weather at the distance
of upwards of two and a half geographical miles from the
deck of a ship ten feet above the water. _ _

" • Second—That instead of the coal beacon at Land-
sort, outside of one of the inlets to Stockholm, there is
also a reflected revolving light, consisting of a triangle,
with three reflectors on each side, which, like the light at
Utkleppan, shows three bright lights with equally long
dark intervals, within the space of six minutes. The
tower, which has been partly rebuilt, is 64 feet high, and
the height, which is 14" feet above the level of the sea,
ought to be visible in clear weather at the distance of up-
wards of tour geographical miles from the deck of a ship
ten feet above the water. The lighting of the beacon
above described will begin on the 15th of next November,
and continue from that time at the hours appointed by the
Board for the other lighthouses in the kingdom.
