little desire to operate, as an impression prevails that

auction is now 111,428 chts, and which is much more
than will be required. With Spanish the market is well
supplied; good to fine qualities have sustained previous

cargo. It sold readily at 42a. Yesterday 107 butts
133 caroteels and 132 brls old Patras, part damaged, were
offered at public sale, but were taken in, there being no
bids. Several more cargoes of new Valencia Raisins
arrived this week, with sellers at 37s to 38s, still there
is not much doing.
TALLOW.—This afternoon the public sales of Tallow
went at easier rates; 600 packages South American at
35s to 38s 6d, low 34s to 34s 6d, 101 casks Australian,

other sorts 301 to 321 103 per tun; and there is en
increasing supply. Cod is offered at 36/ ; yet fewer
transactions have taken place, and a reduction is
looked fur. Southern has been operated in with re-
luctance : low to mid at 311 to 321, and good to
fine 321 lOs to 331103; there will be a more plentiful
supply shortly, so that a reduction is looked for.
Sperm is still held with firmness, and a good demand
prevails at 85/ to 871 for fair to fine. Headmatter
is yet scarce, and realiza 29/ to 341. For Olive
there is an active demand, and a rise has taken
place ; Gallipoli selling at 411 to 411 10s, and
other sorts 39/ 10s to 40/ 10s per tun. Linseed Oil met
with little attention from home dealers; and few export
orders have been completed, although there are sellers
at 318 3d to 31s 6d. For delivery transactions are of
little moment; the rates taken are 30s 9d to 31s,
and for the early part of next season 30s 3d to 30s 6d. A
good demand'exists for Rape Oil, and prices are firm—
brown at 31s to 31s 6d, pale 32s to 32s 6d. Refined

LAW INTELLIGENCE.
JUDGES' CHAMBERS, Sept. 26.

THE ALLEGED FRAUD AND CONSPIRACY AT BRIGH-
TON.—THE QUEEN V. BROOME AND OTHERS,
In this case an application was made on the part of
the defendant James, who was the only person re-
maining in custody. to be admitted to bail until the
assizes at Lewes in March next.
Mr. Metcalfe, the barrister, attended in support of
the application, and Mr. Sill appeared to conduct the
proceedings on the part of the prosecution.
Mr. METCALPE said as the case had already been
before his Lordship, who had given a decision in
favour of the application, he should not do more than
ask his Lordship that bail be taken for the present
defendant in similar amounts to those which had been
accepted in the case of the other defendants.
Mr. SILL said that since the case was before his
Lordship on Saturday last he had carefully gone
ihrough the text books, and also the decisions that
bore on the subject of bail in criminal matters, and he
now felt it his duty to ask his Lordship to review
the opinion which he had expressed the other day
when the application of the defendant Staden was
under consideration. He bad made inquiry at the
chief police-office at Bow-street as to what was the
practice prevailing there in respect to taking bail,
and he had been informed that it was the practice to
inquire, not merely into the pecuniary ability of the
persons tendered as bail, but also into their moral
character.
Mr. Baron MARTIN—WeII, if you can show me
any authority for that course I will give it my best
consideration.
Mr. SILL would refer his Lordship to the case of
" Rex v. Edwards" (4th Term Reports).
Mr. Baron MARTIN—In that case the person ten-
dered as bail bad been guilty of perjury ; the judge,
therefore, would not believe him on his oath as to the
amount of his property.
Mr. SILL said that even in that point of view the
case showed that it was considered material to extend
the inquiry beyond the mere pecuniary question, and
to ascertain what degree of credit was to be given to
the party ; and that at once opened his moral
character to investigation.
Mr. Baron MARTlN—Suppose a man worth 10,000/.
a year was proposed to be bail in the sum of 100/.,
was the judge to ask that person whether he was
living in a state of adultery, for instance ?
Mr. SILL submitted that whatever affected the
moral character of the person offered as bail was
material to be inquired into.
Mr. METCALFE said that in the case of " The Queen
v. Badger and others" (4 Adolphus and Ellis), Lord
Denman and the whole Court held that it was not
competent for the judge to inquire into the character
or opinions of the parties.
Mr. Baron MARTIN said he would hear what Mr.
Sill had to say upon the subject without aoy further
interruption.
Mr. SILL begged to offer as en apology for tres-
passing upon his ;Lordship's time the fact that the
magistrates of Brighton, who had refused to receive
bail in the present case for the grounds alleged by
them, had felt very severely the censure which his
Lordship had been reputed to have passed upon them
for the course they had pursued.
Mr. Baron MARTIN was not aware that he bad
expressed himself in terms of censure. He certainly
considered the practice of the magistrates to be
wrong in law, and he bad said as much.
Mr. SILL then proceeded to argue the question,
observing that the object of holding a person to bail
was to secure his forthcoming to take his trial. The
judge, therefore, at the time of taking bail ought to
be assured that it was the full intention of such bail
that the person bailed should be forthcoming to an-
swer the charge ;:against him. Now, if it should be
manifest at the moment of tendering bail that the
parties so tendered felt no assurance that the prisoner
would be forthcoming at the time required, but, on
the contrary, that they knew it was very probable the
prisoner would not appear, then he submitted that
that was not the sort of security which the law re-
quired to be taken--the fact in the present case. He
believed it would not be denied that a promissory
note for the amount of the recognizance had already
been given, or would be given, to the two persons
who attended to bail the present defendant.
Mr. Baron MARTIN had always understood that
every bail was indemnified by the law giving him a
right of action against the person bailed for any money
he might be called upon to pay by reason of that person
so bailed not appearing according to the condition of
his recognizance. If the law itself created this spe-
cies of contract between the parties, where was the
difference whether the bail obtained an indemnity by
means of an action, or whether the person against
whom that action lay at once said—"l will do now
what the law would otherwise compel me to do, and
will give you my promissory note at once" ?
Mr. SILL said, there was this difference, that the
right of action would not vest in the bail till the party
bailed had omitted to obey his recognizance, but in
this case the right of action was anticipated ; and the
question was whether such a transaction might not
reasonably raise a doubt in the mind of the magistrate
as to whether it was really intended at the time that
the appearance of the prisoner should be bond fide se-
cured for the purposes of the law.
Mr. Baron MARTIN—You contend, then, that the
fact of the bail requiring the promissory note from
the prisoner ought to induce the magistrate to believe
that it was the expectation of the bail that the party
would not be forthcoming at the proper time ?
Mr. SlLL—That was the view which the magis-
trates at Brighton took as to the nature of their duty.
Two of those magistrates were gentlemen of the bar,
and he had seen them since the last hearing before
his Lordship, and they had stated that that was the
only way in which they could put the case.
Mr. Baron MARTIN could perfectly understand
how the magistrates might have been induced to ar-
rive at that conclusion ; but he (Mr. Baron Martin),
after considering the question, bad arrived at a con-
trary conclusion.

Mr. SILL said the only other case with which he
would trouble his Lordship was that of the " Queen
v. Badger and others," already referred to.
Mr. Baron MARTIN asked to have the ease handed
to him, and having read it, said that the judgment of
Lord Denman entirely confirmed his own opinion on
the subject. Lord Denman said that all the magis-
trates had to do was to be satisfied that the parties
proposed to be bail were possessed 'of sufficient pro-
perty to meet the recognizances made, should there
be default in the person bailed appearing at the
proper time ; and that the magistrates had no power
to inquire into the private interests or character of the
persons so offered as bail.

Mr. SILL said the construction which Mr. Carter,
one of the magistrates, had put upon those cases was
that no objection could be made against the political
character or opinions of the bail.

Mr. Baron MARTIN said, the judgment of Lord
Denman did not admit of any such construction. The
Learned Baron then asked whether there was any
doubt as to the parties possessing sufficient property
to be bail in this case ?

Mr. SILL said there was no objection on that
ground. _ _

Mr. Baron MARTIN—Then they ought to have
been accepted before. It was quite wrong that the
defendant should have been detained in custody so
long. The object of bail was to secure by a pecu-
niary penalty the appearance of the prisoner at the
trial, and the persons who entered into that bail ought
to be able to pay that penalty in the event of the
prisoner not appearing. The law said that that
would be the consequence. It at the same time gave
a discretionary power to the magistrates to fix the
bail, not at an unreasonable, but a proper amount.
Suppose a man were innocent ; it would be very un-
fortunate that he should be held to bail at all; but if
a true bill were found against him and he did not ap-
pear, the money would then have to be paid by the
bail, but they would have the power of arresting him
in any part of the kingdom ; and they all knew per-
fectly well that if real efforts were made to arrest
him he could be taken. Supposing, then, that he
actually got out of the way, it must be by leaving
the country, so that, in effect, the man would really
be banished.

The application was accordingly granted, and the
defendant was ordered to be held to bail by tw•o sure-
tie sin the sum of 1001. each, and on his own recog-
nizance in the sum of 2001.

David IVechio, of Swansea, Glamorganshire, malt-
titer, and James Morris, of the same place, wheeler,
were accepted as bail.
Mr. SILL hoped his Lordship would permit him to
refer for a moment to a matter personal to himself.
It was stated on the last occasion that he (Mr. Sill)
had received two sums of money from the defendants
—251. and 151. ; and it had gone forth that his
Lordship had censured his (Mr. Sill's) conduct on
that occasion, as if he had received the money for
his own purposes. It would be highly satisfactory
to himself if his Lordship would expressly state
what it was that really did fall from him on that
occasion.

Mr. Baron MARTIN believed that what he said on
the occasion referred to was that after the explana-
tion given by Mr. Sill he was perfectly satisfied that
the money had not been received by him to be put
into his own pocket, but to defray certain expenses
which had been incurred in consequence of some in-
dulgence having been granted by the prosecutor's at-
torney to the defendants. But he at the same time
added that it was a thing which ought not to hare
been done, and that if such a practice were to pre-
vail it would he open to very great abuse.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
MANSION-HOUSE.
Valerie Sulerhowsky, a Polish refugee, was charged
with having stabbed John Hockley with a knife on
board a Hull steam-vessel.
William Colman, bombardier in the Royal Artil-
lery, said—l was coming from Hull on Wednesday
on board the London steam-vessel, in charge of five
recruits. At half-past ten o'clock at night I was sit-
ting in the forecastle, and the prosecutor and another
recruit were lying together in one berth. I believe
they were asleep. The prisoner was also lying down
and his head was near their feet. I suppose the pro-
secutor's feet might have touched the prisoner's head.
I saw the prisoner rise upon his elbow, reach a knife
from one of his companions, and, after a faw minutes
stab the prosecutor in the foot. I did not think the
prosecutor was stabbed till he got up, and his boot
was covered with blood. I immediately reported the
transaction to the captain, who put the prisoner under
arrest.

The certificate from the surgeon who examined the
wound stated that no immediate danger was appre-
hended, but the consequences might be very serious.
Charles Marshall, a man employed in the engine-
room, said, the vessel was about forty or fifty miles
from Hull at the time the transaction took place.
While I was talking to a person in the forecastle my
attention was attracted by the prisoner rising upon
his elbow and making a motion, expressing that one
of the men who were near him had kicked him over
the head. The two recruits appeared to me to be
asleep. The prisoner turned to a man who was in a
bed place underneath, and the man reached him a
knife under the pretence of cutting a cigar, as that
man afterwards said in broken English. The prisoner
took the knife, and soon after struck one of the men.
The prisoner said he was a native of Lublin, in
Poland, and that it was his intention to go off as soon
as possible to Paraguay, in South America, fcr which
purpose he had come to London.—Remanded.
GUILDHALL.
Mrs. Simmons, who was remanded from Monday
last on the charge of having unlawfully in her pos-
session two pieces of black silk, containing 234 yards,
appeared before Alderman Sidney, in discharge of
her bail, for further examination.
Mr. Swan conducted the prosecution, and Mr.
Clarkson attended on behalf of the prisoner.
The depositions having been read over, David
Hewitt, 233, was put again into the witness-box, and
cross-examined by Mr. Clarkson, when he stated that
prisoner had been living in Field-lane for the last
ten years, but that he never had either her or her
husband in custody before.
William Osborne said —I am in the employ of
Messrs. Cooke, Son, and Co., of St. Paul's-church-
yard. The two pieces of silk produced are the pro-
perty of my employers. I packed them and sent
them to a customer of ours of the name of Bloxham,
of Banbury, on the 13th of September. An invoice
was sent with the goods. About three or four days
ago I received per post a return invoice from Mr.
Bloxham of the same goods. I will swear the pro-
perty produced is the same I sent to Mr. Bloxham,
as both pieces of silk bear my private marks upon
them.

Cross-examined by Mr. Clarkson—We sent similar
goods in similar quantities to other parties.
Thomas Bloxham said—l am a draper at Banbury.
On the 13th or 14th of this month I received a small
box containing two pieces of silk, and not requiring
such goods I returned them, and sent the invoice
produced by the last witness by post. I forwarded
the goods on Friday, the 19th of September, to
Messrs. Cooke, Son, and Co. The parcel was called
for by one of Pickford's carmen, who gave me a re-
ceipt for it. I produce the invoice I received from
Messrs. Cooke. Son, and Co. It corresponds with the
goods now before me.
Joh❑ M`Dougall said—l am a checker at the Lon-
don and North-Western Railway station at Banbury.
On the 19th of September I received a parcel ad-
dressed "Messrs. Cooke, Son, and Co., St. Paul's-
churchyard, London," of George Cross, a carman to
Messrs. Goldy, Messrs. Pickford's agents at Ban-
bury. I took the weight of the parcel, and saw it
weighed. I then placed it in one of the railway com-
pany's vans, which I locked.
Frederick Taylor—l am in the employ of Messrs.
Pickford and Co. On Saturday, September 20, I
went on duty at the station at Camden-town between
one and two o'clock in the morning. About four
o'clock a loaded truck arrived from Banbury, and I
was the first person that unlocked it, as it was my
duty to unload the trucks. I did not open it until
about ten, o'clock, when I required the waybill, in
searching for which I saw the parcel addressed to
Messrs. Cooke, Son, and Co. About twelve o'clock it
was missing, and at one o'clock I went off duty. I
produce the waybill containing an entry of; " ome
parcel, weighing 161 b., for Cooke, Son, and Co."
Cross-examined by Mr. Clarkson—The words "not
received," in red chalk on the waybill, are written by
the checker. The luggage truck is received first into
a small shed, and afterwards removed to a larger one.
The truck did not enter the small shed till ten o'clock
and the parcel was missed on removing it to the large
one. From the time I went on duty to the time I
came off there was no one in the station but the com-
pany's servants.

Mr. Swan here applied for a remand, to enable him
;o bring forward other witnesses to substantiate a case
of stealing the silk against the prisoner.
Mr. Clarkson said he would not contend that there
was not evidence to entitle the Alderman to press this
case further, for there was no doubt that the property
in question had been stolen, but there was no evidence
to implicate Mrs. Simmons either as the receiver or
the thief. He therefore asked the worthy magis-
trate to admit her again to bail in the same amount
It was evident she had no intention of avoiding an
appearance there, or she would not have attended
that day.
Mr. Swan said, after the evidence that had been
given that day, which materially strengthened the
case against Mrs. Simmons, he would object to the
prisoner being admitted to bail; or, if the Alderman
deemed it advisable not to refuse bail, he would then
ask that the amount should be enlarged.
Alderman SIDNEY said the impression on his mind
was that the property had been stolen, and that some
suspicion was attached to Mrs. Simmons in conse-
quence of her being found in possession of it, and not
rendering a satisfactory account as to her having re-
ceived it in a satisfactory way. It was also wife-
vaurable towards her that her husband, who under
ordinary circumstance ought and would, no doubt,
be the first person to come forward to assist her out
of her difficulties, had carefully avoided showing
himself in this court, although this was his wife's se-
cond appearance upon the charge. He (Alderman
Sidney) had considered all the points of the case, and
he certainly did not feel inclined to admit Mrs. Sim-
mons to bail at all. It was an important case both
for the prisoner and the public, and he would therefore
remand the prisoner for a week,—Remanded ac-
cordingly.

CLERKEN WELL.
A respectable looking elderly woman, who repre-
sented herself as the widow of a clergyman, applied
to Mr. Tyrwhilt for his advice and assistance under
the folio Nog pecltli rly distressing circumatances

Applicant, with tears in her eyes, said that her bro-
!ther, who was formerly a respectable master trades-
man, residing in the ❑eighbourhood of this court, but
who was reduced through unforeseen circumstances,
was suddenly seized with illness and confined to his
bed. She was written to, as his only relation and
friend, to attend upon him; and, being in distressed
circumstances herself, she endeavoured to raise some
money to enable her to come to London, when she
found her brother in a state of unconsciousness.
While in a helpless state a summons was served upon
her claiming from her brother 193. 2 1. for a quarter's
poor-rate due to the parish of St. Pancras. It was
served upon her by a broker, who threatened to seize
the few articles in the place if the money were not
paid on the following day. She was much intimi-
dated, and became ill herself. In addition to this
annoyance, the landlord of her brother, hearing of her
brother's illness, immediately came and threatened
her if she dared to remove any article belonging to
him. In this state of excitement her unfortunate
brother breathed his last, on which the landlord put
in a broker for the rent due, and a man was placed in
possession of the small quantity of goods, and her
deceased brother's remains, which had been deposited
in his coffin. She was in great distress, and under
her embarrassed circumstances, she was urged by her
neighbours to make this application, in order that she
might receive some protection and assistance against
her heartless oppressors.
Mr. TYRWHITT humanely ordered her 11. out of
the poor-box, for which she felt grateful, and ex-
pressed her thanks to the worthy magistrate.
LAMBE Tn.
A few days ago two young women named Helen
and Flora Eccles, residing at 18, South Lambeth,
and who appeared to have had a superior education,
waited upon the Hon. Mr. Norton for assistance.
They stated that there were fourteen in the family,
and that their father had recently left them in great
distress. They were able to take situations in re-
spectable families as governesses or companions to
any lady, but they had no friends to assist them in
procuring any, consequently they thought it advi-
sable to attend before his worship to state their suf-
ferings, and that through the means of the public
press they might attain their object.
Mr. Noetros, after hearing their statement, di-
rected Saunders, one of the summoning officers at-
tached to the court, to inquire into their characters,
and report to him the result of his investigation.
Yesterday afternoon Saunders introduced the young
ladies to his Worship, and said that he had made very
minute inquiries respecting them, and was certain
they deserved the sympathy of some benevolent indi-
vidual. What they wanted was situations, that they
might be enabled to maintain themselves honourably,
and assist to support their brothers and sisters, who
were unable to work for themselves. One of their
brothers got into trouble at this court some time ago,
which had so prayed on their father's mind that he
had left them totally unprovided for. He (Saunders)
had been to Mr. Peckham, of the Vine Tavern,
Bishopgate, also Mr. Clements, of the Monarch In-
surance-office, who had known the family for years.
Those gentlemen informed him that their father once
had considerable property in the country, but had
been ruined by bad speculations and the conduct of
one of his sons. They spoke very highly of the ap-
plicants, and stated that they should be happy to as-
sist them, were it in their power. He had also
made inquiries about the neighbourhood in which
they resided, and found them to be worthy of com-
miseration.
Mr. NORTON asked them how many there were in
the family ? Applicants replied fourteen in all, but
only nine were living with their mother. They had
two brothers capable of taking situations, having
been educated in Germany, but they were unable to
obtain any.
Mr. NORTON asked how long their father had left
them ?
They replied six months ; they bad not seen him
three months. He had such a large family he was
unable to bring them up.
Saunders here stated that he had made very strict
inquiries about them, and had ascertained they had
pledged almost everything they could spare to pur-
chase food. They also employed themselves in teach-
ing their younger brothers and sisters.
Applicants said their father's sister was the widow
of a gentleman formerly on the Stock Excange. She
was well off, but would not assist them, nor even see
any of the family. Their father's brother was also
possessed of considerable property, but he would not
aid them in any way. Their father had lost all his
property in speculations, and since then his relations
had turned their backs on them.
Mr. NORTON asked them whether they could un-
dertake situations as nursery governesses ?
They replied that they could—even anything for
respectable employment. Three of their brothers had
been employed in the Exhibition, but they were dis-
charged at a moment's notice, without any satisfaction.
Saunders said that Mr. Field saw them at the Ex-
hibition, and, knowing their brothers to have been in
trouble, he pointed them out, and in consequence of
that they were immediately discharged.
The applicants said they were extremely sorry to
make this public application, but they knew not what
to do. There were many charitable persons who
might assist them if it met their eye in the public
newspapers.
Mr. NORTON said it was a very lamentable case,
and one which deserved to be noticed by the press,
so that it might meet the eye of persons wanting
young women of their position in life. He would
allow them a sovereign out of the poor-box for their
immediate wants, and he hoped their application would
be seen by some humane persons who would take
their case up.
Applicants thanked the magistrate for his kindness,
and left the court expressing their gratitude.
GREEN WICH.
Thomas Cox, apprentice to a farrier at Ro'her-
hithe, was finally examined before Mr. Traill, charged
with having placed a billet of wood across a portion
of the railway belonging to the London, Brighton,
and South Coast Railway Company, commonly known
as the junction line with that of the South-Eastern at
Deptford, by which the most fearful consequences to
the public might have resulted.
Mr. TRAILL directed the depositions to be read
over, after which the prisoner was committed for trial
and the witnesses bound over in 401. each to attend
the next sessions of the Central Criminal Court.

THE COUNTRY MARKETS.
WAKEFIELD, SEPT. 26.—We have a moderate arrival
of wheat, but the show of new is not ao good as last
week; buyers act with more confidence, and the prices
of last Friday are somewhat exceeded. A fair quantity
of new barley is offering, and the best qualities are
taken at a decline of 2s per quarter. Oats are id per
stone, and shelling is per quarter cheaper. Beans and
other articles are without alteration.
