CHARGE Or SIIOPLIFTING.—Mary Ann Browsa and
inn Fitzsimons, two young females, about 18 yoar3 of
age, were brought before Mr. Combe, charged with
stealing 56 yards of doeskin cloth from the shop of Mr.
Geo. Newman, woollen draper, 61 and 62, High-street,
Borough, late in the occupation of Mr. Thwaiteds, the
chairman of the Metropolitan Board of Works.
Robert Bell, 83 M, said that on the previous evening,
between six and seven o'clock, he was passing in private
clothes by the Town-hall, opposite the prosecutor's pre-
mises, when he saw Brown run out of the door-way with
a roll of cloth. She then joined the other, and as they
were crossing the road witness met them and seizad held
of Brown, who dropped the cloth in the road. The pri-
soner Fitasimon was apprehended by another constable,
and they were both taken to the station house. Oa
being searched a new cloth mantle was found on Brown,
which witness had not found an owaer for.

Edward Quarterman, assistant to tLe prosecutor,
stated that the piece of cloth produced was safe at the
doorway, just outside, shortly after six o'clock. He
was near the end of the shop after that, and he saw the
prisoners standing about, and one of them snatched the
cloth from a pile and ran off with it.
Mr. Combe asked the prisoners whether they would
prefer being tried by him, or going to the sessions to be
tried by a jury ?

They replied that they would rather his worship deal
with them.

Mr. Combe asked them whether they were guilty, or
It. They mist plead guilty if he dealt with them.

The prisoners (crying) exclaimed they were guilty.
They had been without food for a long time, and had
no means of existence.

Mr. Combe committed each of them for four months
,o the House of Correction at Wandsworth, with hard

labour.

MARKET NEWS.—(This Day,)

CORN EXCHANGE.

The English wheat in to-day's market was very mode-
rate, and in poor condition. All kinds moved off slowly,
but no actual change took place in the quotations.
Foreign wheat, the supply of which was tolerably good,
was held at full prices, but the amount of business doing
in it was limited. There was a fair inquiry for floating
cargoes of grain, on former terms.

we baila slow sale for barley, at barely late rates.
Malt, however, was firm.

The oat trade was inactive, but no change took place in
he currencies.
Beans, peas, and flour sold slowly, on former terms.
