ROBBING HER MAJEBTY.—Michael Maguire, an as-
sistant store-keeper employed at the Tower, was brought
up in custody of a constable of the ji division, charged
with stealing a Colt revolter pistol, the property of. her
Majesty the Queen. . .

Mr. John Watkins, a clerk in the War Department
at the Tower, stated that be bad charge of the small-arm
department, and the prisoner was employed as an as3is-
taut store-keeper. On Wednesday evening last be was
informed that the prisoner had pledged a Colt's revolver
pistol in Ste Borougb, belonging to her Majesty, when
he was sent for by the principal storekeeper, and given
into custody.

Joseph Harris, assistant to Mr. Bldard, pawnbroker,
High-street, Southwark, stated that on Tuesday evening
last, about balf-past six o'clock, the prisoner came into
his master's shop and offered the pistol produced in
pledge. He wanted 159., and said that Mr. Wharton,
in the Blackfriars-road, had lent him 20s. on it. Wit-
ness, however, advanced him only 125., which he took,
and left the shop.

As soon as the prisoner was called before the store-
keeper he was asked where he got the pistol from that
he had pledged. He replied that a man gave it him near
Londoo.bridge, and asked him to pledge it for him, and
he said he could produce that man if the constable went
with him. The constable was sent with him, but the
man could not be found. He was then given into
custody.
Mr. Daniel Flood, one of the artnourers employed in
the small arms department in the Tower, stated that it
was his duty to inspect all the small arms intended for
the army, and all those which he considered properly

and had never been sold from the stores. It was one of
11 revolvers, and worth three pounds.
One of the clerks employed at the Tower said that on
Tuesday evening last he followed the prisoner from that
place, and saw him enter the pawnbroker's. After he
came out witness went into the shop and ascertained
that he had pledged the pistol produced. He alter wards
gave information to his superior officer.
Mr. Chiffurfield, on the part of the prisoner, contended
that he had not stolen the pistol in question, but that a
man whom he met on London•bridge had given it him
to pledge. In fact, there was no actual proof that it
was stolen from her Majesty's stores.
The magistrate thought otherwise, and to give the
witnesses an opportunity of consulting the law officers
of the Crown, he should remand the prisoner until
Thursday next.

MARKET NEWS.—(This ray.)

CORN EXCHANGE.

The arrivals of Euglish wheat coastwise and by land
carriage continue very moderate, and the show of samples
in to-day's market was limited. All kinds, however, met
a dull inquiry, at prices barely equal to those realised on
Monday.

The imports of foreign wheat are 9,400 quarters. For
home consumption there was very little inquiry, yet im-
porters refused to accept lower terms.
Fine barley was tolerably firm, but other kinds met a
dull inquiry. Malt sold slowly, at barely late rates.
We were barely supplied with oats, and the demand for
them ruled heavy, at Monday's decline.
Beans, peas, and flour sold to a fair extent, on former
terms.
