POLICE INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAL)

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

STEALING POSTAGE STAMPS AT MESSRS. CHAPPELL'S.
—George Roberts, 17, errand boy to Messrs. Thomas
Chappell and Co., the well known music publishers of
New Bond-street, was charged with stealing a large quan-
tity of postage stamps, the property of his master.
Mr. Chappell said that for some time past he had missed
a large quantity of postage stamps from a drawer in the
warehouse, and last night he caused £3 worth to be placed
there, first marking several of them, and at 12 at night, after
everybody had left, saw them safe. This morning about
9, in consequence of being informed that the prisoner was
seen to go to the place and go out, he told the prisoner
that he felt certain he had been robbing him, as no one
else had been behind the counter up to that time. He then
began to cry, and took him to a place where he had hid
them in the cellar, and he (Mr. Chappell) then found them
behind some packing cases. The number was 477, all
penny stamps, and on examining them he found they were
the same as those he had marked. He asked him how he
unlocked the till, and he said his brother had given him two
keys, ono of which unlocked the till, and that it was secreted
among some music, where it was found. The value of
the stamps was £1 19s. 9d. Within the last week he had
missed £6 worth, and the prisoner had told him that his
brother met him and took the stamps from him.
William Smith, in the employ of Messrs Chappell, said
he assisted in marking the stamps, and placed them in the
till and locked it. This morning, about eight, as soon as
the prisoner came, he went behind the counter and took the
stamps from the till, and he gave information to Mr. Chap-
pell. The stamps produced are the same that he assisted in
marking the day previous with Mr. Chappell. He also
found the key that opened the till in the place mentioned
by the prisoner.

A constable proved that the prisoner at the station ad-
mitted taking the stamps, and finding one sovereign and
two half crowns in his possession.

THIS DAY'S _MARKETS.

CORN EXCHANGE.

Only a limitad supply of English wheat was on offer to -
day, but its general quality was tolerably good. The best
samples of both red and white sold at Monday's currency,
but other kinds were very dull, and drooping in price.
Foreign wheat, the supply of which was large, was a
dull inquiry, at barely previous rates. Floating cargoes
were heavy, but not offered on lower terms.
The show of barley was in excess of the demand, which
was much restricted, at barely previous currencies.
The malt trade was tolerably firm. In prices, however,
no change took place.

We had a fair demand for the best oats, at very full
prices, but damp parcels were heavy, at late rates.
Both beans and peas commanded fully previous rates, but
the flour trade was heavy. Country markets were the turn
lower.
