HUNGERYORD HALL, STRAND.--.Amongst the very
numerous and fashionable audience, on Wednesday evening
last, at the elegant little theatre of the above establishment,
we noticed the Earl, of Carlisle and party, the Duchess of
Buccleuch :and party, Sir Archibald and Lady Maclaine,
Admiral Lysaght, &c. &c. The entertainments given by M.
Lassaigne and Madlle. Prudence, in animal magnetism, went
off in the most satisfactory manner, and amidst enthusiastic
applause.
ROYAL ORTHOP2EDIC HOSPITAL FOR THB CURB
oN CLUB Foor, &c.—On Monday a lecture was delivered at
the above institution on the nature and treatment of de-
formities by Mr. R. W. Tamplin, F.R.C. S., the senior surgeon
of the hospital. It appears that the treatment of club foot
and other distortions wus until a few years since confined to
mechanical applications, and in the majority of severe cases
was either wholly unsuccessful, or attended only by partial or
temporary relief. A new and successful treatment, based
upon surgical and scientific principles, was discovered by
Delpech, of Montpelier, afterwards carried out by Dr. Stro-
meyer, of Hanover. and from thence introduced into this
metropolis by Dr. Little. The operation is simply the di-
viding of the tendons, by which extreme adult cases of con-
traction and deformity can be cured in a few weeks or months,
and those of children in a much shorter period. Since the
opening of the Royal Orthopxdic Hospital no less than
12,000 of individuals have been cured, and there are
upwards of 700 now in regular attendance to receive the
benefits of the charity.
EXTRAORDINARY MAIL FROM INDlA.—Yesterday
morning the largest mail which has ever arrived from India
was brought to the Post-office, in St. Martin's-le-Grand. It
consisted of not less than 104 boxes, there being, in addition,
four large portmanteus or bags !
MONEY MARKET.—The quotation of gold at
Paris is at about par (according to the new tariff), which,
at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. 10Id. per ounce for
standard gold, gives an exchange of 25.17 ; and the ex-
change at Paris on London at short being 25.271, it follows
that gold is about 0.41 per cent. dearer in London than in
Paris. By advises from Hamburgh the price of gold
is 429} per mark, which, at the English Mint price of
31. 17s. 10d. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange
of 13.71; and the exchange at Hamburgh on London at
short being 13.8, it follows that gold is 0.35 per cent.
dearer in London than in Hamburgh. The course of ex-
change at New York on London for bills at 60 days' sight is
110 per cent., and the par of exchange between England
and America being 109 23.40 per cent., it follows that the
exchange is nominally 0.42 per cent. in favour of England ;
but, after making allowance for difference of interest and
charges of transport, the present rate leaves no profit on the I
iroporratien 9f gold from the United States..

POLICE INTELLIGEN CE.
GUILDHALL.

51. Alfred Boulanger, a corn and flour merchant,
of Amiens, at present residing at the Union Hotel,
Sal isbury-square, Fleet-street, was placed at the bar
bet"( ore Sir Peter Laurie, charged with stealing 7,000
fran cs (2911. 13s. 4d.), from the person of Mons. P.
Ver(ld, of 28, Panton-street, Haymarket.
A gentleman from Mr. Hobler's office attended for
the p xisoner ; but the prosecutor did not appear at all.
Sill. PETER LAURIE—What is the reason that the
prose cutor does not come forward ? Daniel May (the
detec Live officer)—The gentleman who gave the pri-
soner into custody is a foreigner, and cannot speak
English. He, however, appeared to understand that
his presence was required here, and promised to come.
Sir PETER LAURIE—As he does not think proper
to attend, I should like to know upon what grounds
he gives this prisoner into custody upon so important
a charge, without appearing to substantiate it, there-
fore, May, you had better state the circumstances.
•

Daniel May—From the statement made to me by
the prosecutor, on first engaging my services in this
case, it seemed that prisoner and prosecutor were con-
versit4; together in the Corn Exchange, in Mark-
land, on Monday, the 20th of October last, when the
former; stole from the person of the latter a portfolio
containing 7,000 francs. I have since heard that
some business transactions took place in France be-
tween them, in which prosecutor accused prisoner of
having acted fraudulently, and
.upon meeting him
accidently here gave him into custody. Prosecutor
mentioned nothing to me about the charge until, as
he said, he thought prisoner was about to escape.
Sir PETER LAURIE—Where did you
.see him, and
at what time ? Daniel May—l met him this morn-
ing at half past ten at the French Ambassador's office
lin Chancery-lane.
Prisoner, in having these circumstances conveyed
to him by means of an interpreter, said that the only
commercial transactions that had taken place between
them occurred a long time ago.
The solicitor for the prisoner said that the prosecu-
tor, finding prisoner was about to return to his own
country, bad made use of this ruse to detain him here
while a warrant was obtained in another quarter to
apprehend him on another charge.
Sir PETER LAURIE—As far as I can see in this
matter, May has acted very properly, but at the same
time it is evident to me that this charge has been
trumped up at the eleventh hour, and without any
foundation, in order that prisoner may be detained
while other proceedings are being taken to prevent
his leaving this country. It is a disgraceful case, and
I am very sorry that any gentleman should have been
so illused here, but at the same time it is very grati-
fying to know that the prisoner has to thank his own
countryman for such treatment, and that it is not the
act of an Englishman. I feel great pleasure in dis-
charging him, and can but regret he should have
been given into custody at all.
On this communication being made to the prisoner,
he thanked the Alderman and retired.

Neil Zkt'Shane, a middle-aged man, was charged
with committing an assault upon Margaret Bosphor
with a poker, whereby her life was greatly endan-
gered.
After partly hearing the case, the prisoner was
remanded.
