THE WEST INDIA MAIL.

SOUTHAMPTON, JAN. 7.—The Clyde steamer, Cap-
tain Simons, arrived this morning, at ten o'clock, with
the West Indian and Mexican mails. She has not
brought a single dollar on account of the di-
vidends, but she has nearly 2,000,000 on board on mer-
chants' account, the whole of which were shipped at
Tampico. The American authorities have intimated
that for the future the ports were closed against further
shipment. A conducta of halt a million of dollars was
sent express from Mexico, in nine days, for shipment, so
anxious were the merchants to avail themselves of the
packet. Santa Anna had published a letter in the
Mexican newspapers entirely disavowing the late con-
version of the Mexican Bonds. A squadron of six ships
was off Tampico, awaiting the arrival of the troops
from America to make eland attack on Alvarado. Santa
Anna had collected 25,000 troops at San Luis Potosi, to
await the advance of the American General, Taylor,
who occupied Saltillo with 5,000 men, and a report
was current in Vera Cruz that Santa Anna had ad-
vanced against him with ten thousand men, and
compelled him to fall back on Monterey, the
American volunteers being in a state of insubor-
dination. The Mexican Government were making stre-
❑uous efforts to strike a decided blow. Gen. Salons, the
President, had decreed an advance of two million dollars,
the repayment to be guaranteed by the clergy at the
expiration of two years at 5 per cent. per annum.
General Taylor has attempted to negotiate with Santa
Anna for peace, who replied that no terms could be
listened to whilst an American soldier remained in arms
on Mexican ground, or an American man-of-war
blockaded a Mexican port. The news from Mexico is
highly favourable to the Mexicans.—Berald.

GREENWICH.

Edward Grimmor:d: .a
labourer in the employ of the
South- Eastern Railway Company, was charged with
stealing 76 lbs. weight of brass fittings, portions of loco-
motive engines, the property of the above company.
Police constable Why the, 180 It, deposed that on the
preceding evening he saw the prisoner on the road to
Greenwich, carrying a large basket on his shoulder,sand
suspecting him, demanded to be shown its contents,
upon which the prisoner threw down his basket and
attempted to effect his escape, but was prevented, and
with much difficulty was taken to the station•
•house. On
examining his basket, the brass work prodpced was
found enclosed in a sack. The prisoner gave his address
as living in Roan-street, Deptford, which was untrue, as
he had since ascertained he resided at New-cross. Wit-
ness had evidence present to prove whence the property
had been stolen.
James Rose, of 8, Wellington-terrace, Wandsworth-
road, an engineer, identified a slide-valve of a locomotive
engine as belonging to the South-Eastern Railway Com-
pany, which had been manufactured by himself.

An engine-fat( r, employed by the same company'
under whom the prisoner worked, deposed that he be-
lieved all the articles produced to be the property of
his employers, and to which the prisoner had general
access.

The prisoner said nothing in his defence, except that
there was another person who assisted him in taking the
articles in question.
Mr. TRAILL said he should remand the prisoner for
a week, telling him at the same time, that if he chose,
for the satisfaction of his employers, to inform the officer
who his accomplice was, he would only be doing a duty
towards his employers.
The prisoner, who mad no reply, was then committed
to Maidstone Gaol.

UNITED SLRVIC'E MAGAZINE.

The article of the greatest permanent value in the
present number of the United Service is the conti-
nuation of the " History of the Sikhs and the Pun-
jaub." We hope that when the publication of this
history in the magazine shall be concluded, the pro-
prietors will re-publish it in a separate form. It is
by far the best work on the Punjaub that has yet
appeared. We have also in this number a well
written history of Texas up to the period of the
battle of San Jacinto in 1836, which is likewise an
article of permanent value. In the way of fiction
we have the commencement of the " Confessions of a
Pirate," which reads like one of Eugene Sue's earlier
novels, and the continuation of " Guard-room Sto-
ries." There is also an admirable review of
" Thiers' Consulate and Empire," and several other
excellent articles. This is an admirable number of
the United Service.

LAUGHABLE APPLICATION.

A tall athletic fellow, whose appearance bespoke any-
liking but short commons, presented himself before Mr.
Yardley, at the Thames Police-court, and with a strong
provincial accent, said, " Zur, I comes here to consult
you about this ere piece of beef. I belongs to the brig
Ann, she's a collier wot trades from South Shields to
Lunnun. When we starts the captain agrees to give us
lots of the best of grub—(Laughter)—and a man aboard
a collier, yer warshup, works precious hard, and on
Christmas-day, of all the blessed days of the year, they
gives a feller sich stuff as this (here complainant,
amid roars of laughter, produced something ho called
beef, but which seemed like a good sized coal, selected
from the cargo). Then, yer warshup, instead of small
stores, they gives us small beer, and if you tasted it, yer
warshup, you'd say it was precious small—(Loud
laughter)—and when we complains, captain says he'll
cum Capun Johnson over us, but he won't while I be on
board."

Mr. Yardley, who seemed much amused at the indig-
nant tone with which this complaint was uttered, with
lungs of such stentorian power it would havo been im-
possible to have stopped the application, directed In-
spector Judd, of the Thames-police, to inquire into the
facts of the case.

Applicant—Thankee, yer warshup; but thero be one
point more. I be a married man, and my wife and
young'uns be in Lunnun, and because I complains of the
grub, he keeps I aboard, won't let I go home of a night
to my wife.—(Laughter.) Be that lawful?—(Laughter.)
The Magistrate, who could scarcely control his
risibility at the earnestness with which this facetious
application was made, told the applicant ho was afraid
that, if the captain insisted on it, he must remain on
board.

He then retired, observing, " he wouldn't gee a button
for a feller that wouldn't speak for hisself when he wur
hungry."

TO THE LADIES.

This lady had the following letter inserted in the "Times" news-
paper on Aug. 7, 1846. Reader, remember, this letter was put into
the paper by the lady herself, as a testimony to me.
" Mrs. Weekley, of No. 3. Swan-street, Borough, takes this oppor-
tunity of publicly thanking Mr. W. Grimstone, of the Herbary, High-
gate, for the efficacy of his Aromatic Regenerator, in having com-
pletely restored the hair on her head, after using it about four months,
nd the whole of her hair is much stronger and mere luxuriant than
ever was before the baldness appeared.
" Mrs. Weekley inserts this testimony to the virtues of Mr. G.'s
Regenator. feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase
an I ls- bottle if they were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex-
perience, not only in the restoration and production of hair in abund-
ance, but as a cure of nervous headache; as a toilet perfume it is far
beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasure in answering any
lady of respectability to the above facts.-3, Swan-street, Borough."
In cases of the hair becoming thin, weak, or turning grey, a few
drops on the crown of the head occasionally, every week, will pre-
vent the hair from coming away with the comb, make it strong, and
trevent it turning grey, rendering the hair luxuriant and curly. A
few drops on your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the
hair brilliancy, causing it to curl.
The most delicate ladies may use this delightful product el the
most aromatic herbs and flowers with confidence ; its refreshing
JdOur removes headache and makes it a most necessary companion
to the toilet. In cases of nevous headache, pour ten or twelve drops
311 the crown of the head ; if vi ry bad, repeat it every quarter of an
hour. In Most cases relief is certain in ten minutes. It produces
hair oil children's heads in a few appplications. It used on infants'
treads, it has such a peculiar cooling influence on the brain as to pre-
vent convulsions, as well as promoting the growth of hair.--See

SOUTHWARK.-(THIS DAY.)

John Hayward, a powerful looking young fellow, was
placed at the bar before Mr. Seeker, charged with forcing
his way into the gallery of the Surrey Theatre, and
assaulting John Gardener, the check-taker.
Complainant, who exhibited a wound in his forehead,
said that last evening, shortly after eleven o'clock, the
prisoner endeavoured to force his way past the check-
taker's bar. Witness asked him for his check, when he
pushed him aside, and forced his way into the gallery.
He endeavoured to eject him, but he found him too
powerful for him, and in the scuffle the prisoner kicked
him in the forehead. Finding he could not get him out
of the theatre, he called in a police-constable and gave
him into custody. Witness informed the Magistrate that
the prisoner was one of a gang of young ruffians who
were in the habit of creating rows outside the gallery
almost every night, and it was impossible to keep them
away.

Prisoner exclaimed that witness assaulted him first, or
he should not have pushed him down.
Mr. SECKER—IIad you paid for admission into the
theatre ? Prisoner—No, Sir, I had not ; but I thought
I should like to see the finish of the pantomime.
Mr. SECHER—You had no right to force your way
into the theatre without first paying for admission. I
shall fine you 20s. for the assault, or twenty-one days'
imprisonment, and require you to find bail for your
future good behaviour. _ _

In default of paying the fine the prisoner was com-
mitted to prison.

WORSHIP STREET.-(THIS DAY.)

Charles Cook, a potboy, in the service of Mr. David
Smith, landlord of the Brown Bear public-house, Wor-
ship-street, was charged with stealing divers quantities
of gin.
:air. Smith deposed that he had from time to time lost
a large quantity of gin. Upon inquiry of the servant
girl, the latter told her mistress that it was the potboy
who had been helping himself most bountifully from the
large cask, by means of a knife which he contrived to
place between the bung and the hole thereof.
Mary llodgkinson said she saw the prisoner, a day or
two since, go to the said cask with a quart and a pint
pot and fill them i❑ the way above described. She ought
to have told her mistress of it at the time but did not
like to do so.
The prisoner, on being asked what he had to say in
his defence, contented himself with merely saying that
the last witness had herself drunk the gin.
Mr. BINGHAM remanded the prisoner, to give time for
further inquiry, as it was probable something else might
be found out, other persons, doubtlessly, being engaged
with the prisoner in this abominable system of plunder.

THE BANKERS'. MAGAZINE.

The present number opens with a very elaborate
article on Sir Robert Peel's currency principle, as
tested by the experience of 1845, which may be
considered as a continuation of the series of articles
on Mr. Tooke's theory of the currency which
have appeared in this magazine. We have, more-
over, biographical sketches of the late Mr. Alsager
and of the late Mr. P. M. Stewart, in addition to
the usual banking intelligence of the month.

WORSHIP STREET.-(THIS DAY

Charles Cook, a potboy, in the service of Mr. David
Smith, landlord, of the Brown Bear public-house, Wor-
ship-street, was charged with stealing divers quantities
of gin.
Mr. Smith deposed that he had from time to time lost
a large quantity of gin. Upon inquiry of the servant
girl, the latter told her mistress that it was the potboy
who had been helping himself most bountifully from the
large cask, by means of a knife which he contrived to
place between the bung and the hole thereof.
Mary Hodglcinson said she saw the prisoner, a day or
two since, go to the said cask with a quart and a pint
pot and fill them in the way above described. She ought
to have told her mistress of it at the time but did not
like to do so.

The prisoner, on being asked what he had to say in
his defence, contented himself Kith merely saying that
the last witne,s had herself drunk the gin.
Mr. BINGHAM remanded thz- prisoner, to give time for
further inquiry, as it was probable something else might
be found out, other persons, doubtlessly, being engaged
with the prisoner in this abominable system of plunder.

SOUTHWARK.-(THIS DAY.)

John Hayward, a powerful looking young fellow, was
placed at the bar before Mr. Seeker, charged with forcing
his way into the gallery of the Surrey Theatre, and
assaulting John Gardener, the check-taker.
Complainant, who exhibited a wound in his forehead,
said that last evening, shortly after eleven o'clock, the
prisoner endeavoured to force his way past the check-
taker's bar. Witness asked him for his check, when he
pushed him aside, and forced his way into the gallery.
lie endeavoured to eject him, but he found him too
powerful for him, and in the scuffle the prisoner kicked
him in the forehead. Finding he could not get him out
of the theatre, he called in a police-constable and gave
him into custody. 'Witness informed the Magistrate that
the prisoner was one of a gang of young ruffians who
were in the habit of creating rows outside the gallery
almost every night, and it was impossible to keep them
away.
Prisoner exclaimed that witness assaulted him first, or
he should not have pushed him down.
Mr. SECKER—Had you paid for admission into the
theatre ? Prisoner—No, Sir, I had not ; but I thought
I should like to see the finish of the pantomime.
Mr. SECKER—You had no right to force your way
into the theatre without first paying for admission. I
shall fine you 203. for the assault, or twenty-one days'
imprisonment, and require you to find bail for your
future good behaviour.
In default of paying the fine the prisoner was com-
mitted to prison.
London, England, 1847-01-08

BOW-STREET-(THIS DAY).

David Belasco (nephew to the prize fighter of that
name) was placed at the bar before Mr. Henry, charged
with creating a dist urbarce at the Lyceum Theatre, and
assaulting Carter, the constable of the theatre.
The complainant stated that at about ten o'clock last
night he was sent for to the pit, where he found the pri-
soner standing on a bench, and obstructing the view of
several persons who were behind him. Being pulled
down by some one who was standing near him, he got
up again. Witness pulled him off, and he got up agai❑
a second and a third time. When witnNs was pulling
him down for the third time he struck him a very vio-
lent blow on the eye, which caused him (witness) to
stagger back against the partition at the back of the
pit. Witness, with the assistance of two policemen, took
him into custody. The prisoner was sober.
Mr. Henry Keeley (brother to the lessee), said that
he was at the back of the pit, and saw the whole trans-
action. He saw the prisoner pulled down three times ;
he saw him giye the blow, and when he was taken into
custody, followed witness to the station.
The prisoner admitted that be was pulled down, but
denied that he had struck the complainant. He might
have pushed him.
Mr. HENRY fined him 51, or in default sentenced him
to imprisonment tor one month. The fine was paid.
