EXTENSIVE ROBBERIES BY HOP MERCHANTS
SERVANTS. - Yesterday Win. Evans, servant to
Mr. Beament, hop-factor, of Park-sfreet, Borough,
and two men, named Innes and Rivers, were placed
at the bar for re-examination, the former prisoner
being charged as the thief, and the two latter with
being ciders and abettors in a robbery in the prose-
cutor's premises.

Within twelve months robberies have taken place
n the district of this Office to the amount of up-
wards of fifteen thousand pounds' worth of hops,
snd notwithstanding the vigilance of Kinsey and
Johnson, two active officers of this establishment,
they failed in capturing any of the robbers until
Friday morning last, when they apprehended tke
three prisoners, with a pocket of hops in their pos-
session.

John Kinsey, for months past, by night and by
day, had been endeavouring-, in conjunction with
Johnson, to detect the robbers of the different hop-
factors' warehouses, and in consequence of over-
hearing a conversation in a public-house between
the prisoners, when a plan was suggested to rob
the prosecutor's premises early on Friday morning,
witness and Johnson secreted themselves, and a
little after six witness unlocked the warehouse and
went in. In a short time afterwards a spring-cart,
containing the two other prisoners, drawn by a fast-
trotting horse, was driven up, and the prisoner
Evans lowered by the crane a pocket of the best
hops, weighing 150Ibs. into the cart. Inflect and
Rivers covered it over with rugs and hay, and then
drove off. Witness pursued them, and after a hard
chase, succeeded in stopping the horse, and securing
the two prisoners. Witness took possession of the
horse, cart, and hops.

The prisoners declined saying anything in defence.
Alderman ANSLEY-4 shall commit the prisoners
for trial, and perhaps between this and the sessions
other robberies may be detected.
The office was crowded by persons in the hop
trade, and a gentleman said that since the new beer-
shops had been licensed a number of small brewers
had started, thus affording facility for the disposal
of hops that were stolen, and they were instantly
transported to the breweries of the minor brewers a
short distance from London.

It is stated in a provincial journal, that within
five miles of one spot, in Somersetshire, there are I.eventeen
parishes without a resident minister.

UNZXPECTED TRIP TO THE EMERALD
TRUE STORY.--Early in the last month, the
" better half" of a farmer, residing not a hundred miles
from Wickar, in Gloucestershire, left home with her two
blooming daughters for the purpose of taking a " peep at
the rarer shows" at Bristol fair, and of making sundry
purchases. In consequence, however, of the party not
returning for several days, considerable alarm was ex-
cited ; and the disconsolate husband, accompanied by the
favoured swains of the damsels, went to Bristol in search
of their lost friends. On arriving there, they could only
find the vehicle in which all they held dear had taken
their departure, and the horse quietly feeding in the stable
of the inn. After a long and fruitless search, they came
to the conclusion that the whole party had fallen in an
evil hour, into the hands of ruffians, by whom they had
been cruelly put to death. With this conviction strongly
impressed on their minds, the father and the lovers re-
traced their steps to their homes, to console themselves as
well as they could upon their supposed loss. In a day or
two, however, the " murder" was out—the mystery
solved. A letter, bearing the Cork post mark, was re-
ceived by the husband, informing him thus she wife and
daughters had gone to the fiotwells, from whence one of
the Irish steamers was just about to sail ; that they asked
to be taken on board for " a little way ;" but that the
sailors, either liking their company too well to part with
them, or forgetting to land them at a convenient dis-
tance from the place of their embarkation, had taken them
all the way to Cork--where they then were; and their
funds being exhausted, they were under the necessity of
writing for a remittance in order to defray their pas-
sage home. The needful was of course sent, and in due
time the whole party were joyfully welcomed back to
Wickar. As might be expected, the adventure has been
the source of much amusement throughout the neighbour.

CAPTURE OF BURGLARS.—The town and
neighbourhood of Ashburton have long been infested with
a set of daring fellows, and all attempts to discover them
bad hitherto been unavailing; brit having lately admitted
a greenhorn into their gang, he was too fond of
displaying his ill-gotten we iltb, which led to a suspicion
and his apprehension ; he had not been long in custody
before he confessed a few of the robberies committed by
the gang within the last month ; among other items, ten
hats of wheat from one farmer, five from another, and
flour, cheese, and bacon, from several shops in Ashburton.
They had the impudence when they effected the rubbery
of the ten bags of wheat, to take a valuable horse out of a
field, and use him to convey their booty to a birn they
rented, and after finishing their work led back the horse

HANIMURG PAPERS.

HANctuaa, Nov. 6.—Bythe Stockholm journals to
ere 29th ult., which arrived to-day, we learn that the
Government, in order that the price of corn might not fall
.too low, and thus give occasion to excessive brandy
distilling, had thought fit to decree that corn may be
exported free of custom and other duties till the end of
June, 1834. It was observed that that permission might
lead to extensive exportations to Courland and Livonia,
where importation is now free.
Lord Howard de Walden, who is appointed British
Ambassador at Lisbon, delivered his letters of recall to his
Majesty the King on the 25th, and on the same day was
invited with his Lady to his Majesty's table, on which
occasion he took leave of the Royal Family. He intends
to embark to morrow on board an English steam-boat for
London.

IlßuNswtcx, Nov. 2.—An assembly of the States met

again yesterday for the first time since its adjournment in
June. A project of law on the personal tax was presented,
which proposes a very considerable increase of the tax en
the higher classes, and a reduction of that on the ',Owen
Some rescrip's of the Duke were read, together with which
a statement of the finances for 1834-1836 was communi-
cated and distributed among the members. It is expected
that in a few weeks there will be another adjournment in
order to give the Committee time to complete their labour
respecting the finances, &c.
CASSEL, NOP, 3 —A deputation of the inhabitants
yesterday had the honour to be presented to the Prince Co-
Rege-nt, to present an address expressive of the most lively
gratitude for the law sanctioned on the 29th ult., for
regulating the civil rights of the Jews, by which they are
planed, under certain conditions and restrictions, on an
equality with their fellow-citizens.
EMEDEN, Nov. 2.—Yesterday evening, afrer a terrible
storm from the W.N.W., the water rose over the quays
at 10 o'clock, though the regular time of high water was
not till half-past 3 in the morning, and rose to such a
height that we feared another scene of terror, like that of
Feb 2, 1825. A great deal of damage was done by the
inundation of the cell.rs and ground-floors of the houses,
but the water was, however, two feet lower than in the
tide of the night of Feb. 3, 1825, which was the highe.t
there had been for a century. We do not hear of the
breach of any dikes.

STATE OF THE HAMBURG MARKETS.

BORSEN HALLE, Nov. S.—HALF•PAST Two, P
The Corn Market has been extremely dull this week,
and with the exception of Oats it was difficult to obtain
the quotations for any description of grain. Of Rapeseed
there was no supply in the market, but business to some
extent continues to be done in this article in the interior.

During the last six days of October. 26 cargoes of Corn
passed through the Sound, of these eight were bound for
British, six for Dutch, and eleven for Norwegian ports,
and of one the destination was not known.

WEDNESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 13, 1833.

The Paris Papers of Monday, which arrived
this morning, contain no intelligence of interest
from Spain. The Ministerial Prints are silent
as to the movements of SAARSFIELD, except
as to the insertion of a letter from Aladrid, in
which it is stated that he had given the insur-
gents of Vittoria a delay of eight days for their
surrender. If SAARSFIELD had been strong
enough to attack them, we do not think that he
would have wasted so much time whilst the
insurgent bands were increasing around him.
There have been some new Chouan outrages in
La Vendee, but they were not of sufficient
extent to excite uneasiness.

The Allgemeine Zeitung, which arrived this
morning, contains the following article from the
frontiers of Prussia. Who the writer may be it
is impossible for us to divine; but we remember,
in more instances than one, to have received
from the same quarter communications which
subsequently proved to have been from autho-
rity. Whether the present statement, which is
full of sound and fury, be authorized or not,
time will show. We do not find, on inquiry,
that either the British or the French Cabinet
has received any very threatening communica-
tions from the Northern Powers ; but it is not
improbable that the concessions which our
Cabinet and that of the Tuileries have made,
may have turned the brains of METTERNICH
and NESSELRODE, and made them believe that
they may ride rough shod over the national
honour of France and Great Britain. Qui'
vivra verra, as the writer says. For our own
part we have no uneasiness, and we do not be-
lieve that Lord GREY will be much disturbed
by the communication of the Northern trio
whatever it may be.

FRONTIERS Or PRUSSIA, OCT. 28..—0 n the day of
Count Nesseirode's departure, several couriers were

despatched to Vienna, probably to make known to the
Austrian Cabinet the result of the deliberation, at Berlin.
It is said that immediate overtures were also made to the
French and English Courts by the Representatives of the
Three Northern Powers, but not, as was supposed, by a
special Ambassador. The nature of this communication
is naturally kept secret—enough has, however, transpired
to convince us that the French journals must assign
another motive to the recent Congress of Sovereigns
than they have hitherto done. We do not say
that it was resolved in Bohemia, or at Berlin,
to draw the sword without any delay—that would
be to misinterpret the wishes of the continental
Powers, and to cast doubt upon their love of peace; but
we have every reason to believe, that they have now
marked out a line which they will not allow the leaders of
the revolutionary party to pass over. The partisans of
liberal Constitutions will doubtless see an ultra-tendency
in these expressions ; they must be left to do so. We
consider that we are performing a duty to the public in
general, by warning them not to rely too much en the
forbearance of these powers. The French have a proverb,
qui vivra verra ; we think that a change will take
place; at least it is resolved to make no further concession
to the revolution.

Various ingenious paragraphs have been in
circulation the last three days, asserting the un-
expected and ominous visit of Lord DURHAM
to the metropolis. The Morning Post and
Herald of yesterday, and our respectable contem-
porary the Morning Advertiser, have giver(
currency to these reports. The latter, this
morning, states that Lord DURHAM, ,4 yesterday
forenoon (Tuesday), visited Earl GREY, i❑
Downing-street." There is not one Word
of truth in these rumours. They probably
derive their origin from the large manufactory of
political lies lately established by certain caterers
to the public press, and who have been this
week also occupied with falsehoods against Mr.
ELLICE. The fact is that Lord DURHAM is
at Lambton Castle, and will spend the winter
there or at Paris. It is, however, no marvel
that the Conservatives should take so deep an
interest in his Lordship's movements.

The Times, of yesterday, in commenting
upon a letter inserted in its columns, complain-
ing of the evils of the Poor Laws, says :

" To every reflecting person it must, we think, appear
monstrous that a lazy pauper should receive gratuitously
out of a parochial tax a weekly sum equivalent to the
highest wages that can be earned by the most able bodied
and industrious labourer ; and that a man who marries
without a shilling in the wend, or the prospect of support-
ing a wife, much less children, should be rewarded for his
recklessness by allowances for each and every of a dozen
children ; the first of these misapplications of charity being
a premium upon idleness—the second upon callous impro-
vidence and desperation."

To every reflecting person, therefore, it is ob-
vious that the true rule of charity, with respect to
parish paupers, is to make them work harder
and fare worse than the independent labourer.
But, if we mistake not, the Times has repeatedly
within these few months attacked those who
have maintained that doctrine, and asserted the
right of the pauper, improvident, drunken, and
reckless though he may have been, t• relief at
the expense of his honest, industrious neigh-
bours, who have made the earnings of the
harvest last them through the winter. It was
the Times who set the example of attacking Miss
MARTINEAU'S feelings and character instead of
her arguments. It may be granted that the article
which appeared in that paper against the amiable
lady we have mentioned, whose sole crime was
contending against what " every reflecting per-
son" must think monstrous, was free from the
brutal, beastly indelicacy of that in Frazer's
Magazine, but still it was utterly inconsistent
with the conduct of a " reflecting person." We
should have been content to hail the advocacy
of sound principles and true humanity by the
Times, without reference to past slips, did we
not perceive in the article in which it chances to
be right, indubitable proof of continued igno-
rance. The sentence next to that which we
have quoted is the following :

We concur most heartily with our correspondent in
denouncing as wicked and inhuman the wholesale swamp-
ing of the small tenantry of England, sacrificed as that
invaluable body of our fellow subjects have been, at the
bidding of those who called themselves political economists,
to the great Moloch of production."

At the bidding of those who call themselves
political economists ! Our contemporary might
as reasonably talk of the Times having been
reared at the bidding of political economists. A
compositor is a much better educated man, much
more intelligent man, and, therefore, a much
better citizen than a small farmer. If one large
farmer can be made to do what three small
farmers used to do, and two printers or manu-
facturers be added to society, society will be a
gainer. But would. not the Times laugh to
scorn any writer who should denounce its
wholesale swamping of morning papers, and the
consequent non-employment of hundreds of addi-
tional printers ? The Times wishes to break up
large farms that there may be three farmers where
there is one ; but why not break the Times into
three morning papers ? There are large farms
instead of small, because it is more economical
to cultivate on a large than a small scale, and
so there are thrashing machines, because by their
means corn can be thrashed out more econo-
mically than by hand. The Times does
not, however, advocate the giving of em-
ployment to the agricultural population by
the destruction of thrashing machines. Why
not we cannot imagine, for large farms,
like machinery, rest upon principles of economy.
As our contemporary is evidently in this instance
not a reflecting person," it may be supposed
that his forbearance on the subject of machinery
has originated in his unavoidable knowledge that
the steam employed in printing the Times is a
" wicked and inhuman" offering of the livelihood
of a dozen pressmen and score of printers " to
the Moloch of production." The simplicity dis-
played in the abuse of political economists is
highly amusing. The Bourgeois Gentilhomme
was mightily astonished when he discovered he
had been talking prose all his life. The Times
will perhaps be equally surprised to learn that it
talks political economy every day. To be sure
the honest Bourgeois did not always talk
grammar, nor is the political economy of the
Times always sound—but still the one was prose
and the other is political economy.

We have been favoured with the copy of a
pamphlet published ten years back by a gentle-
man named R OSSER, who has been persuaded
that the present is a favourable time to dispose
of his unsold copies. It is entitled " Credit
Pernicious," and its object is to do away
with one of the greatest signs of commercial

civilization which distinguishes this country above
all others. The writer has for a long time been
contemplating the losses tradesmen suffer by
giving credit, and has managed to lose sight of
the advantages derived by trade from the existence
of credit. Barbarians will not trust each other,
for they have no law to compel the performance
of a mercantile undertaking. They make no
bad debts certainly, but then they have little trade.
As men acquire confidence in the power of the
law over brute strength and dishonesty, and
confidence in one another, credit is given, and
trade is extended. Bad debts are then some-
times made, but the proper check against credit
being improvidently given is the interest of indi-
viduals. Mr. ROSSER very good-naturedly un-
dertakes to protect men against the consequences
of their own conduct, and proposes that " simple
contract debts between forty shillings and one
hundred pounds, shall not be recoverable by any
suit or process whatever." That is, that the law,
instead of enforcing an honest contract which
men may enter into, shall sanction its violation.
Mr. ROSSER urges the state of the law with
respect to the debts of minors as a justification
of the breach of principle he advocates. But
the cases are very different. A minor is sup-
posed, and justly supposed, to be a party incom-
petent to judge for hiinself, and the law is in-
tended to protect him against the fraud of those
who might wish to overreach him. What
comparison is there between the case of
a boy of fourteen running up a bill of 3001. or
4001. with a tailor or hairdresser, and a grown
man entering into a contract for the sale of goods
to any amount whatever ? The tradesman selling
his goods is at liberty to refrain from giving
credit. If he gives credit to a person unworthy
of credit, it is his own fault. Credit is a conse-
quence of the performance of contracts. The
performance of contracts must be the rule and
not the exception, or credit would not be given.
The giving of credit will be put an end to without
the help of Mr. ROSSER'S Act of Parliament,
directly when the loss by so doing is greater than
the gain. As it is, he would inconvenience the
prudent majority for the sake of what ? Why,
of giving a comparatively few weak tradesmen
an additional excuse for saying " No," as if any
excuse were wanting fcr a prudent tradesman's
refusal to give credit to parties he did not
think worthy of trust. The thing is absurd in
every point of view, and as the let-alone system
is becoming better understood every day, we
would advise Mr. ROSSER to give up all hopes
of selling his " Credit Pernicious."
