ROBBERY IN A COUNTING-HOUSE.—A tall well-dressed
man, about 27 years of age, who gave the name of Thomas
Maybury, and said he was a bricklayer, was brought before
Selfe charged with stealing money in the counting-
house of Mr. William Jones, the proprietor of lime works
in High-street, Wapping, near the Thames Tunnel.
It appeared from the evidence of Mr. Jones that yester-
day afternoon his clerk had just retired from his desk into
the inner counting-house, and that Mr. Jones entered the
outer counting-house suddenly and saw the prisoner and
another man, " equally as respectable," standing close to
the desk. Before Mr. Jones could ask their business the
prisoner's confederate dropped the lid of the desk and ran
away. The prisoner asked Mr. Jones some ques-
tions about plaister, which the prosecutor did
not answer, but laid hold of him and said, " You
have robbed me." An immediate alarm was
raised, and the prisoner's confederate was pursued, but
made his escape. The prisoner was given into custody,
and conveyed to the Thames Police-station, close by. On
his way he dropped a packet containing ss. worth of half-
pence, which was recovered. Another packet containing
a similar amount was found in his coat pocket. Mr.
Jones missed four or five packets, each containing ss. worth
of coppers from the desk in his counting-house, and he
could identify the one dropped by the prisoner and the one
found upon him as having been taken from the desk. There
was gold and silver to a large amount in the desk, and the
prisoner and his companion would have carried away a
large booty if they had not been suddenly interrupted.
The prisoner pleaded guilty, and said, I wish you
to settle it here."

Mr. Selfe—Why do you wish me to settle it here ?
The prisoner—lt is my first offence.

Roche, the gaoler of the court, who is remarkable for his
recollection of old offenders, said if the prisoner was re-
maNded it would be found that he had been often in cus-
tody for various offences.
The prisoner—Never before
Roche—Yes ; and you have been tried and convicted.

Mr. Selfe—When did that occur ?
Roche—Too many years ago for me to fix the time.
Mr. Selfe had very little doubt in his own mind the pri-
soner was an old offender ; but, as there was no actual
proof of a former conviction, and the prosecutor wished
him to dispose of the case summarily, he shoUld do so. The
robbery was a most audacious one, and he sentenced the
prisoner to six months' imprisonment with hard labour.
London, England, 1860-02-16

excepted articles which he retained, as being under
the value of £2O when he made out hi 9 schedule of
insolvency.

The wife here declared with much vehemence,
that she would never live with her husband again.
Mr. Henry said this was not the question ; her
husband did not want to live with her.
The Husband.--No, not I. I want nothing but
what I can swear to as my own property.
The wife alleged that the property had been dis-
posed of under a bill of sale, but the creditors, out
of compassion for her, gave her a portion, which
were the articles now in question. She had sold
them to her brother to buy food.
The Huaband—No such thing. They were not
included in the bill of sale, as I bought them after
it was executed, and they were removed with the
knowledge and sanction of the holder of the bill of
sale, as not being part of what he claimed.
The Wife—l bought some after you were in
prison.

The Husband—l don't want to claim those ; not
but that I might, for you bought them with my
money.
._ _

The wife here lost her temper, and began vio-
lently to harangue the magistrate, the usher, and a
party of friends who accompanied her, upon what
she termed the hardness of the case.
Mr. Henry recommended her to keep her temper.
He was endeavouring to make the best arrangement
for her, but if he were to explain the state of the
law, she would find that it was less favourable to
her than she imagined. As she still continued her
loud abuse of her husband and of the Court, his
worship observed that she appeared to forget the
cancelling of the order of protection. Her husband
had a right, if he chose, to take even what she had
subsequently purchased.
The parties then left the court.
In the course of the day they returned, and stated
that the landlord of the house where the disputed
goods were had taken them in execution for rent.
Mr. Henry said in that case he could not inter-
fere.

FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.

THE AMERICAN BARQUE ANNA.—This ship
(the mates of which are now in prison on
a charge of murdering six of the crew) was
towed out of Cowes harbour on Tuesday, and,
manned by runners, sailed for Liverpool.
Her Majesty's ship Carnatic was towed out of
Cowes harbour on Saturday by the Government
steamers Comet and Echo. She drew 18 feet water,
and it had been stated by some well-disposed parties
that it was probable that she might foul the chains
of the steam ferry bridge and take it out with her,
but they were mistaken, as there proved to bo 25ft
water over the chains, and though the Carnatic had
the Echo on her starboard and the Comet fast on
her larboard side, the three ships passed out abreast
without the least inconvenience either to the bridge
or any of the shipping. We suppose after this we
shall hear no more of the bridge obstructing the
navigation.
COFFEE BY AUCTION.—Mr. May on Wednesday
sold 2,000 bags of coffee, in lots of from 40 to 80
bags each, part of the cargo of the Oldenburg brig
Erlprinz Friedrich August, from Rio de Janeiro,
landed in a damaged state. It brought uncom-
monly good prices c-insidering the state it was in.
The first lot was knocked down at 415., but the
bulk of it brought 545., 565., and 575.

A contemporary announces that Major-General
John Eden, now commanding the Cork district, will have
the Colonelcy of the 34th Regiment, vacant by the death
of General Sir Thomas Macdougall Brisbane, but we be-
lieve that no recoeunendation has been yet made to her
Majesty upon the subject.—Ariny and Navy Cazette.

CHURCH RATES AT WOOLWICH.—About twelve
months since, after an exciting contest, a church rate was
refused at Woolwich by a majority of 111. The church-
wardens have again convened a vestry meeting to consider
the question of making a rate, and the organist of the
parish church has forwarded a circular to each ratepayer,
stating that, in consequence of the want of funds, he has
not received his salary. The anti-rate party have issued
placards denouncing the attempt to inflict church rates
upon the inhabitants, and a strong contest is expected.

RE VVIGDAHL.

This was a certifiee.te meeting under the estate of the
bankrupt, a most extensive coal exporter. The losses are
set down in the balsa:ice-sheet at nearly £lO,OOO, sustained
in consequence of the sudden closing of the late Italian war.
Mr. Lawrence, for the assignees, called attention to the
accounts, and said that probably about 2s. 6d, in the pound
would be realised. The losses had excited the anger of the
trade assignees. Now, it appeared, that the loss was
through a shipment of coals as a speculation during the late
war. The Emperor of the French had, however, purchased
very largely, and the speculation proved a failure. Mr.
Lawrence contended that the bankrupt had, with only a
capital of £285, gone most rashly into these speculations,
and, in fact, was placing his counters against his creditors'
guineas. The bankrupt had kept good books, and had
exerted himself most energetically in assisting the assignees
to realise his estate.

The bankrupt then read a long statement, at the conclu-
sion of which his Honour awarded the bankrupt an imme-
diate certificate of the second class.

master, and the debt was for refreshments supplied.
Mr. Abbott offered £2 down, and. £2 per month.
Plaintiff declined, and said that he really could not agree.
His Honour inquired how plantiff would take it ?
Plaintiff—l really cannot take it after standing so long.
Mr. Abbott—The defendant is here and can tell your
honour his exact position. _ _ .

His Honour again asked plaintiff how he would take it,
and not being quickly answered, made the order as required
by defendant.

The report of the directors of this company
states that the receipts from all sources during the
six months ending Dec. 31 last amounted to
£75,072, and the total expenses to £41,288 ; and
that, after deducting the interest on the company's
debenture debt and adding the balance of £1,174
brought from the previous half-year's account,
there remains a net balarce of £27,483 available
for dividend. From this sum the directors recom-
mend that a dividend be declared at the rate of 5i
per cent. per annum, amounting, on the company's
capital stock of £975,000 to £26,812, and leaving
£671 to be carried forward. The increased receipt
of £4,559 in the past six months, as compared with
the receipts during the corresponding period of
1858, has been derived from an increase on almost
every branch of the company's business. The ex-
penses, notwithstanding the additional work per-
formed and some exceptional charges borne by the
revenue of the half-year, are only £1,998 in excess
of the corresponding six months of 1858. On
Jan. 2 last, the Hampstead Junction Railway was
opened for passenger traffic, and the working in
connection with this company's railway has been,
thus far, satisfactory. The capital account showed
that £1,376,697 had been expended to Dec. 31 last.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRES.

•
During the whole of yesterday (Sunday) the
greatest consternation prevailed throughout the
parish of Shadwell and the hamlet of Ratcliff, owing
to the raging of a fire which lasted upwards of 12
hours, and during that period property valued at
many thousand pounds sterling was reduced to
ashes. With the exception of a fire that occurred
on Friday night in the West Kent-wharf, on the
Surrey side of London-bridge, this is the largest
conflagration that has occurred in the metropohtau
district during the present year.
In Phoenix-place, Ratcliff-cross, stands—or, more
correctly speaking, stood on Saturday night—a
large range of manufacturing premises, termed the
Ratcliff-cross Wharf, situate in Narrow-street, but
extending into Phoenix-place, which was formerly
known as Ratcliff-highway. The premises were in
the occupation of Messrs. Parkinson and Salmon,
whoiesale biscuit bakers to the army and navy, and
were termed the Phoenix Mills. The property in
question stretched in one direction about 150 feet,
and in another nearly 100 feet, and comprised
steam boilers engines, and other descriptions of
valuable machinery, while the stock of flour and
other articles used in the manufacture of biscuits
was immense. At the end of the mills stood two
houses, which communicated with the principal
portion of the factory, three stories high, and used
as stores. In these houses a vast amount of stock
ready for shipping off or for delivery in town was
deposited. In fact, every floor, it is stated, was
filled with goods ready for shipment for the expe-
dition to China. The next premises on the eastern
side belonged to Messrs. H. Kempton and Co.,
leather merchants and curriers. They formed two
houses numbered 3 and 4, and the workshops and
drying-houses covered a great space of ground.
The adjoining house was fortunately unoccupied,
but it belonged to the firm of Parkinson and Co.,
the owners of the mills.
About an hour after the fire broke out the ini"
mense roof of the mills fell in, the weight of which
Caused the floor below also to fall, and then the fire
rose higher.
Even so late as six o'clock last evening (Sunday)
the firemen, were obliged to pump over the fire, it
being far from entirely extinguished, although 19
hours elapsed from the first discovery. All danger,
however, of any further extension of mischief was
over.

An official inquiry into the cause of this disas-
trous fire, it is understood, will be instituted before
Mr. John Humphrey, the coroner.
At 7 o'clock
fast 'evening the fire which broke
out on Frid,ay night in the premises known as the
West Yent-wharf, on the south side of London-
b,:idge, belonging to Messrs. Hartley and Sons,
was not entirely extinguished, and it is doubtful
whether it will be before the middle of this day
(Monday).
