LAMBETH-STREET.

Wm. Hawes, a man of respectable appearance, was
charged with pawning watch-cases which had been en•
trusted to him by several watchmakers to polish and
spring, to the value of 301.
The pawnbroker, Mr. Vesper, stated that the pri-
soner had been in the habit of pawning property similar
to that which had been produced, and he had always
considered him a respectable watch-case manufacturer.
The prisoner did not deny pledging the whole of the
property, and in each he was convicted in the penalty of
a shilling and the amount of the goods, or one month's
imprisonment.
An arrangement was come to that Mr. Vesper
should give up the watch-cases to their different owners
on the payment of a third of what they had been
pawned for.
At the earnest solicitations of the manufacturers,
who said they believed Hawes to be honest, but that his
necessities had driven him to the act, and that they
were willing to employ him again, the prisoner was ul-
timately discharged.

MISCELLANEOUS.

On Friday, it, being the present King of Prussia's
birthday, was inaugurated on.the Place of La Belle Al-
liance, at Berlin, a superb granite column, 42 feet high,
and surmounted by a figure of Victory, in commemo-
ration of the successes of the Prussian army over Na-
poleon.
On the 15th of this month, in 1555, Bishop Ridley
gave a supper to his friends the night before he suffered.
Tis supper presents some idea of the manner of living
as well as the price of provisions, at that time ;--A pig,
11d.; a shoulder of mutton, 9d. ; a plover, 4d.; bread
and ale, 3d. ; wine, lid. ; cheese and pears, 2d. , total,
2s. 6d. "Quiet yourselves," said he to his friends ;
" though my breakfast will be somewhat sharp and pain-
ful, yet my supper will be more pleasant and easy."
Lord Eliot, while riding to his office at Dublin Castle
from the Chief Secretary's lodge on Thursday last, was
thrown from his horse, and bruised and stunned by the
fall.

At the sham fight, which took place on Friday at
Windsor Park, before the Queen and Prince Albert, it
was observed that the old muskets, with Hint and steel,
almost invariably failed, while the new ones, with per-
cussion.loeks, seldom or never missed fire.

GERMANY AND THE POPE.

FRANKFORT, OCT. 2.—The following document, which
has been communicated by the Chancellor of the Home
Department at Vienna, Count Alittrowslii, to the clergy
of the! Austrian -provinces which form part of the Ger-
manic Confederatio-n, gives a curious insight into the
conflict which has arisen in Germany in consequence of
the pretensions of the Pope 'to assert his former supre-
macy in matters which for half a century have been
placed under the jurisdiction of the consistoral courts
of those countries.

"'Shice it is incumbent upon the Pope, by virtue of
the apostolic office conferred on him by God, to watch
.most anxiously over the inviolability of the doctrines
and discipline of the Church, he could only lear❑ with
grief and displeasure tidings of anything that militated
against them. His firm opinion respecting marriages
contracted between Catholics and Protestants is also
sufficiently known, for he has ever declared such
marriages to be unlawful, and to lead to per-
dition; partly on account of the shameful intermixture of
creeds which they promote; and partly of the imminent

At Marlborough-street on Friday Mr. Laverty applied

dm Strand, but who was admitted to bail till Tuesday
next, was again placed at the bar on a charge of utter-
ing, two other forged checks of the sum of net each.
After a lengthened examination the Magistrate, not
judging it expedient to accept bail, the prisoner was re-
manded.

longing to the Greenwich workhouse, were committed
for twenty-one days to the same place fin' similar offences.

FINE ARTS.

The Committee appointed to superintend the restora-
tion of Crosby Palace, Bishowsgate-street, are bringing
their labours to a close. This palace, with its " richly-
embowed roof," at which Sir Bartholomew Read, Mayor
of London, entertained a s*lemn Embassy from Maxi-
milian of Germany—which Sir Thomas More occupied,
and afterwards sold to " his dearest friend" Bonoisi, the
Lucca merchant—which in 1594 the " rich Spencer"
purchased, and " Sidney's sister, Pembroke's mother,"
occupied for a time, was in later years turned into a
Presbyterian meeting-house, and afterwards became a
packer's warehouse ! From these degraded uses it has
now been delivered, and its architectural splendour pre-
served to better times.

M. HARDWICK acquiesced in the reasonableness
of these remarks, and having received an assurance
from Mr. Crick that he bilevecl the defendant would
repeat his vioknel, Mr. Hardwick then reconsidered
his decidon, and desired the 51. note to be return:A to
the defendant, with an intimation that two sureties of

decision was a fine of 5/. I tendered you the money.

Mr. HARDWICK-But I do call upon you for bail,
and you must procure it before you arc released.

The defendant was then removed.
UNION-HALL.

The landlord of the Union public-house, in the Mint,
was summoned under the Act, for keeping a disorderly
house, by permitting music and dancing, without a li-
cense. A policeman stated that he had found in the
house a room fitted up as a concert•room, and that
there were sixty or seventy persons, chii_fly boys and
girls, some of whom were decked out in spangled
dresses, and wore masks, and were dancing to the music
of a violin, violincello, and a harp. The defendant said
that he did everything in his power to keep the corn-
puny who frequented his house select—that many
houses in the neighbourhood hid music without any li-
cense—that the people were now so fond of music that
he might as well close his shop as not keep up with his
neighbours. The Magistrate said, whatever others did
sill the defenlant was bound to adhere to the terms of
his license ; he should fine him 103., and if he wanted to
have music and dancing to amuse his neighbours, he
must obtain a license for it.

The price of P. Y. C. on the spot was 48s. by the prin—
cipal holders, while small parcels sold privately at 6d. par
cwt. less. The stock is very large, with every prospect o f
a I.rge supply next season.
DRY FRUIT MARKET.

The supplies were sot so large as in the early part a f
the month, but the quantity in warehouse is much largar
than usual at this season, and in consequence prices wen•

laws of our country, and exercised a power dangerous
to the liberty of the subject, which ought not to pass
with impunity." But we suspect this and every other
Ecclesiastical Court acting with the same barefaced
disregard of the law, may count on impunity. This
opinion we deliver with due hesitation ; but as the con-
duct of the Court of Llandaff has excited much indig-
nant feeling in Monmouth and the parts of the county
adjacent, and a subscription has been set on foot to
enable the Widow Young to obtain redress, if redress is
to be had, it is not impossible that the point will be
decided respecting which we are in doubt. If any
degree of iniquitous practice, short of barefaced cor-
ruption, brought home to a judge, can serve as a
ground for punishment, it is to be found in the prac-
tice of the Ecclesiastical Courts. In the
" Plympton
Papers," published some time ago by the Camden
Society, a curious light is thrown on the conduct of
Empson and Dudley, who, it appears, played very
different parts from what might be inferred from the
statements respecting thorn in our common histories.
These gentlemen, like the practitioners in our Ecclesias-
tical Courts, proceeded according to law. They had
the same objects in view, the acquisition of plunicr,
but yet they set law less at defiance than.the Ecclesias-
tical Courts have done. To be sure,, they flew at
higher game than Widow Young, and the other unfor-
tunate cottagers caged by the Bishop's Court of Landaff,
and hence their deathless renown. No man in England
can
.long hope to oppress the rich with impunity. Ex-
cessive fines and excessive bail figure conspicuously in
the Bill of Rights, though, in comparison to the incomes
of the parties, heavier fines and heavier bails than those
which led to the clause in the Bill of Rights are of
every day occurrence in our Police Courts. But no-
thing can be too baavy for a poor man, and nothing too
light for a grandee.

SPAIN AND PORTUGAL.

MADRID, DEc. 20. —The courier despatched to Lisbon
by the Marquis de Saldauha and M. de Lima, the Portu-
guese Minister, in the beginning of the month, has re-
turned to Madrid with the reply of the Cabinet of Lisbon
and dtspatches from Lord Howard de Walden, our Am-
bassador. The former announced its readiness to leave
the adjustment of the differences between the two countries
to the mediation of Great Britain, and added, that in no
case could the Portuguese Government think of ratifying
the treaty of 1835, without previously submitting it to the
approbation of the Cortes. It accordingly invited the
Spanish Cabinet to have patience for some weeks longer,
pledging itself to lay it before the Cortes in the course of
January, and to give it its entire support.
The Spanish Regency, on the other hand, contended
that, as the Treaty had been concluded under the charter
of I)on Pedro, which did not require the intervention of
the Cortes in diplomatic matters, their sanction of a Treaty
signed and ratified five years ago might be legally dis-
pensed with.
Lord Howard do Walden fully concurred in the views
expressed by Portugal, and the Regency had resolved on
waiting until the meeting of the Portuguese Parliament.
The reply to the ultimatum of the Duke of Victory, en-
joining Portugal to execute the Treaty in the space of
25 days had not yet reached Madrid.
The Duke was the only member of the Regency who
appeared so. in .1,- 11113
actually organizing an army to enforce the pretension of
Spain to the free navigation of the Douro. This army is
to consist of from 50,000 to 60,000 infantry, eight bat-
teries of artillery, and between 4,000 and 5,000 cavalry.

LISZT AT HAMBURGII.—A letter from Ham-
burgh of the 10th of December, announces that M. Liszt
gave the entire proceeds of his first concert at the great
theatre there, amounting to 3,189 rixdollars (nearly
7001.), for the foundation of a pension list for the benefit

of the members of the orchestra of that theatre. The
mit.icians thus munificently provided for went in a body to
tl:e celebrated pianiste's hotel with an expression of their
gratitude. On the following evening they executed a
magnificent serenade, including some of his own chosen
compositions, beneath the windows of the apartment which
'‘e occupied at the hotel.

We are given to understand that the Lord
Chamberlain has most considerably extended the license
of the Haymarket Theatre, by which act the manager of
t os place of amusement will be enabled to continue his
r,, successful season beyond the 15th inst., at which
•to he must otherwise have closed his doors.

L. • :fillip° will to-morrow present such of the elec.
tors borough as choose to accept the gift, with a
quarte tc.: of coals each•—Brighton Gazette.

THE MARKETS-YESTERDAY

COLONIAL MARKET.

The transactions were entirely confined to private cont.
tract, and suited to the bare wants of the home consumers.
Prices remained much the same as they were at the clout
of last week. Rice in fair demand at full prices. Run
sought after at somewhat easier prices than last week..
Coffee is very dull of sale, and destined to go still lower.:;
TEA MARKET.
The demand was steady for moat descriptions, anal
prices had an upward tendency for the black and gram
sorts. Company's Congou met with more attentium
from speculators, and the current price advanced to 2r. 11 d.

stanzas :

" The Canon's house is lofty and spacious to the view ;
The Canon's cell is order'd well—yet Nelly looks askew ;
The Lady's bower is in the tower,—yet Nelly shakes her
head—
She hides the poker and the tongs in that gay Lady's bed
" Six weeks were gone and over, full six weeks and a day,
Yet in that bed the poker and the tongs unheeded lay
From which, I fear, it's pretty clear that Lady rest had
none;
Or, if she slept in any bed—it was nit in her own.

NEWS FROM TURKEY.

VIENNA, DEC 22.—The accounts from Constantinople
of the Bar inst., which arrived hers by express last night,
and appear in the Austrian Observer to-day, stating the
Porte had declared the conventions concluded by Commo-
dore Napier with Mehemet Ali to be null and v,-,id, had
the effect of greatly increasing the apprehensions of our
Exchange, and depressed the funds, so that Bank Shares
were to be had to-day, 1540, and other stocks in the came
proportion. It may, however, bs justly doubted whether
these apprehensions arc well-founded, since news may be
daily expected that Admiral Stopford has concluded a
similar convention at Alexandria, which may, perhaps, dif-
fer only in the form from that of CAnniodore Napier, as it
is known that the instructions sent to Admiral Stopfcrd
contain a clause that the unconditional submission of
MAciliet Ali, and his own application for pardon, is to be
considered as the final condition of his reinstalment. 11 is
highly probable that Mehemet Ali will not make any op
position on this point, since he must be sensible that he has
no alternative but either to accept the hereditary Pachalic
of Egypt on these terms, or to expose himself to total ruin.

EGYPT.

The following iatereepted letter from Ibrahim Pacha to
Mehemet Ali, received from Constantinople, will be read
with interest :

TRANSLATION.

" Ejub Aga yesterday brought me the letter of your
Highness, which I read and understood fully. On the
same day, the 31 Ramadan, Selim and Ismael Paellas,
with Goubran Effendi, arrived here. The basna being
low, I was unable to make the payments. 47,000 purses
are indispensable, and you must send them to me.* Selim
and Ismael report that neither the artillery nor the cavalry
regiments have any barley, and it is impossible to procure
any, because the peasants conceal everything. They will
neither contribute nor give anything; the infidels of Saida
have made them insolent.

We are in want of many things; Syria will be no
longer tenable, if the sea is not soon free. Affairs stand
thus :—Eleven days ago had your Highness ordered me
to withdraw hence, I should not have done so. At pre-
sent everything has changed. Our infantry would be
good, but the Syrians are worth nothing ; I had allowed
them to leave me, after obliging them to render up their
arms. The Arnauts being in league with some seducer,
demand either their pay or discharge. I have allowed
them to retire. The same with a part of . . .
We are alone. The rains and cold are disagreeable.
The bivouacks are worth nothing. I cannot hold my
present position till the end of the Ramadan ; but in
case your Highness should desire to abandon Reri
Schen (Syria) temporarily, I shall not be able to
take away the cannon. Our enemies receive assistance
from Constantinople and Malta. Ships, soldiers, and
ammunition arrive daily, and they overrun the coast of Sy-
ria in as many hours as I could do in days. It is there-
fore prudent not to come here with the fleet, for the Eng..
lish would take it before our eyes. The Consuls have
given me to understand that Acre will be bombarded ;
bombarded perhaps, but taken not yet. Everything there
is in excellent order. Mahmoud has requested matrosses,
and I have sent 340, for, to use in my position here, they
would be useless. From the frontier there is nothiog new.
Maghium Bey is at Aleppo. Ahmed Bey will withdraw
as soon as the Ottoman troops advance. The season is
unfavourable to our enemies, who arc not very numeraus.
Maghium supposes that at Aleppo there arc both spies
and people to seduce our soldiery, sled that the vulgar are
blind. The same may be said of Damascus."
* A purse is about a sterling in round numbers, conse-
quently the sum required by Ibrahim would be 235,0001.
