MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

Mr. James Wright, of No. 42, Bath-street, City-
road, was summoned before Mr. Hardwick by
Charles Maillard, the conductor of one of the Hamp-
stead omnibuses, for refusing to pay him his fare.
The complainant said the defendant got into his
omnibus in Holborn and got out at the corner of Ox-
ford-street. Complainant demanded his fare, but the
defendant refused to pay him more than 3d. The
fare was 6d.

The defendant said he refused to comply with the
complainant's demand because he felt that he had
been made the victim of a trick, and because he was
desirous of protecting the public, and more especially
females, against this trick, which he understood was
frequently resorted to. The complainant's omnibus
had the words " Holborn," " Oxford-street," on it, in
large letters, so as to lead the public to believe that
the omnibus traversed Oxford-street, whereas it only
passed the corner of the street, and proceeded up Tot-
tenham-court-road. When he got into the omnibun
he told the conductor to set him down at Duke-street.
The conductor did not say anything to undeceive
him with respect to the route of the omnibus, and he
only found the matter out from hearing a person
make an inquiry of the conductor. When he got out
at the corner of Oxford-street, he tendered the con-
ductor threepence for his short ride, as that was the
charge of the regular Paddington omnibuses, but the
conductor would not take the money, and pointed to
the writing outside of the omnibus. He looked closely
at the writing, and found the words " corner of" in
very small letters, placed close to the words " Oxford-
street" in large letters. This evident attempt at im-
position made him determined to try the question of
the legality of the conductor's demand.
Mr. HARDWICK considered it was unfair towards
the public that the words should be so placed on an
omnibus as to induce people to believe that the route
of a vehicle was in a particular direction when the fact
was not so. The defendant, had, however, positively
declared that he named Duke-street, when he got
into the omnibus ; and, presuming this to be the
truth, he must dismiss the summons against him.
Caroline Bradbury, better known for the last
twelve years at this court as Caroline Guest, was
charged with being drunk and creating a disturbance
at one of the west-end club-houses.

Mr. HARDWICK sent her to prison for twenty-one
days. _ .

Just before the arrival of the van for the removal
of the prisoners, an alarm was given by some of the
women confined in the cell where Caroline Bradbury
was placed, that one of the prisoners had cut her
throat. The cell was promptly visited by the
gaolers, and the discovery was made that Caroline
Bradbury had forced a penknife into her throat, and
had made a wound of about an inch in length. The
woman was immediately removed in a cab to Mid-
dlesex Hospital, but after the wound was dressed, it
being the opinion of the medical man that nothing
serious was to be apprehended, she was eventually
taken to St. Margaret's Infirmary.

LAMBETH.

Mr. Charles Hicks was brought before Mr. Elliott
for final examination on various charges of obtaining
money upon false and fictitious cheques. The pri-
soner, it appears, has gone through a somewhat
lengthened career of imposture, and sueceedeil, by
drawing cheques to the orders of officers in the army,
and making them payable at the offices of Messrs.
Cox and Greenwood, and other respectable army
agents, in making many victims. The evidence in
four or five clear cases was taken, and the prisoner
was fully committed for trial.

Yesterday Michael Mahoney, apparently about 17
years of age, was charged with breaking into St.
Mark's College, Chelsea, and stealing several sets of
mathematical instruments, a great number of books,
wearing apparel, and other property.
On last Sunday morning it was discovered that
some person had effected an entrance into the college.
The prisoner was Formerly a pupil at the college, but
was expelled about nine months ago for misconduct.
He had subsequently been found concealed on the
premises, and committed for a month from this Court.
Suspicion was directed towards him, and he was taken
into custody on Monday evening, when a great por-
tion of the missing property was discovered.
Two pawnbrokers produced property (also iden-
tified), and one of them recognised the prisoner as the
person who pledged it at his shop.
Joseph Hanson, 122 V, said that a person named
Turner, connected with the workhouse of St. George's,
Ilanover-square, had met with the prisoner and
lodged him in the station-house of the C division.
He (Turner) had found some of the property upon
him.

Mr. BRODERIP inquired whether Turner was in
attendance ? The constable said that he was not.
Mr. BRODERIP observed that the evidence of
Turner could not be dispensed with.
Robert Mettell, 181 V, said he searched the pri-
soner's room at 22, George-street, Grosvenor-square,
and found a great portion of the property produced.
Mr. BRODERIP observed, that he must remand the
prisoner for a week in order to procure the necessary
evidence to complete the case.

REDUCTION OP BEER, SPIRITS, AND BREAD

Yesterday morning a great number of the licensed victuallers
displayed the following, in their windows:—" Beer and
spirits at the original prices; thanks to Lord John Russell."
They are now charging 3d. and 31 d. per pot over the
counter, and 4d. and 11d. in the house. Most of the
bakers at the west•end of the metropolis yesterday morning
made a reduction of a halfpenny and a penny in the price
of the 41b. loaf. They are now charging 9%d. and 10d. for
the best quality, and 81id. and 9d..for " household bread.

THE WEST INDIA MAIL.

We have received the %Vest India Mail by the Trent
steamer. The reports of the sugar and coffee crops are en-
couraging. In every island, with the exception of Cuba, the
crops are expected to be most abundant. The islands are
generally healthy. A rumour was prevalent that the Go-
vernor of Jamaica intended to dissolve the Assembly, and
that a general election would take place. Sir Charles Grey
was sworn as Governor on the 21st December.
KINGSTON MARKETS.

(From De Cordora's Mercantile Inteiligencer.)
No transactions of a speculative tendency have been in-
duced by the approach of the Christmas holidays, and the
market has been most unusually quiet for the period of the
year. This inactivity is attributable to the disinclination of
dealers to purchase largely now, when it is confidently ex-
pected that the supplies will in a short time be considerably
increased, and prices must consequently fall. This remark,
however, applies more directly to flour than to any other ar-
ticle, as, if we except rice and pork, it is the only staple of
which there is at present any quantity in stock. The ar-
ticles in most demand are butter, lard, hams, cheese, bread,
cod oil, pigs' tongues, herrings, alewives, candles, and meal,
in which there is no doubt a good business could be dune.
were the supplies at all adequate to the demand. .+►r e
may notice that the retail trade is very buoyant. as it
always is at this season, but
.it is checked in a great mea-
sure by the scarcity of most of the articles of every day's
consumption.

Mr. BANKES.—No; I spoke generally.
Sir G. GREY said on that subject he had no definite
plans to propose to the House. With reference to the
disposal of juvenile offenders prior to conviction or impri-
sonment, the information required by the Hon. Member
would be given in the papers which he proposed shortly
to lay on the table of the House.

The same man who is loitering by the monntdirkSere in
Tipperary er in Derry—whose potato crop has just
furnished him with occupation for a few days—
whose wages and whose pig have just enabled him
to pay his rent, and eke out a miserable subsist-
ence, has perhaps a brother in Liverpool,
Glasgow, or London, who, by the sweat of his brow,
f, ona morning till night, is competing with
the strongest and stoutest labourers, and is
earning wages equal to any of them.—(Hear, hear.)
I do nut think, therefore, that either the fruitfulness
of the land, or the strength or the industry of the inha-
bitants are to be blamed. There have been faults, it is
true—there have been differences—but happy will
it be for us if we lay the foundation for the
cure of these differences —(Hear, hear.) Happy will
it be, if the Irish themselves take for their maxim the
precept " Help yourself, and Heaven will help you," and
then I trust that they will find that there have been
uses in adversity.—(The Noble Lord then resumed his
seat amid protracted cheering.)

Now these teas are all good of their several kinds, some of them
exceedingly fine, and of a quality very rarely to be met with. At
one penny per pound profit they will be supplied to the trade and all
large consumers, in lots and quantities to suit the most extensive de-
mands. As will he noticed by the above list, so it is a well-known
fact, that the original cost of finest Congou tea is over 39 tech, or
2s. 2d. per pound, whfch, with duty added, makes 4s. 414 d. per
pound. We have, ever since we began selling teas at Number One,
sold this description at 45. 6d. per pound. Hundreds and thousands
of people have tried it, and can vouch for its strength and richness
of flavour. Nobody ever finds fault with it, and it pleases every-
body, because it is both good and cheap. When Government falls
the duty, we will fall the price of tea in the same ratio, at Number
One, and publish it to the world. All purchasers will be allowed one
pound on every 30 pounds as overweight.

EXPORT.

SUGAR.—Coarse brown is very plentiful, and may be ge-
nerally obtained at from 18s. Gd. to 20s. per 1001bs. ; but the
market is badly supplied with the better sorts, which are
worth. and would realize, from 221. to 255. per 100Ibs. The
accounts from the manufacturing districts report very favour-
ably of the prospects of the 1847 crop, and it is expected
that there will be larger" taking off" than there has bee
for some years past. It is impossible, however, to hazard Sn
opinion as to the probable quantity which will be actually
manufactured. In some parishes it is rumoured that the al-
most hopeless competition which he has before him will induce
the planter rather to permit the canes to perish in the earth
than yet further to risk his limited means in attempts to
overcome the difficulties by which he is surrounded. Eng-
lish double refined may be quoted at 90s. per 1001bs. for small
loaves.
Rum is worth 4s. 3d. to 4s. 4d. per gallon.

HER MAJESTY'S STEAMER
SPHYNI.

BlorrisToN, SUNDAY, THREE P.M.—We have had a heavy
gale raging from the south to south-west, but the ship has
not received any further injury. She is now so far in that
there is not more than 2% feet of water in her. She drew
17 feet when she struck, but the pilots expect there will not
at the spring tides be more than seven feet where she sits.
The rocks outside break the sea, so that it has very little
effect on her. She sits quite upright, and a stranger not
aware of what had happened, would not take her for a
wreck. The men saving her stores, &c., walk to and from
her at low water; indeed there is no other means of ap-
proach either from this wild sea or shore, for the rocks on
one side and the cliffs on the other.

CLOSE OF HOLIDAYS.—Now that the season
of annual festivity is about to terminate, and the respective
boarding-schools be re-instated by the busy throng of youthful aspi-
rants, the personal comfort and attractions of whom become naturally
an object with friends and relatives of great solicitude, ROW-
LAND'S MACASSAR OIL, for accelerating the growth and for im-
proving the skin and complexion, and removing cutaneous eruptions ;
and RO'WLARD'S ODONTO, for beautifying the teeth and preserv-
ing the gums, Are universally considered indispensable in the requisite
accompaniments of the decorative repository. The august patronage
conceded by all the Sovereigns of Europe to these creative renovating
specifics, and confirmation, by experience, of their Infallible efficacy,
have characterised them with perfection, and given them a celebrity
unparalleled.
