2IIONEY MARKET AND CITY NEWS.

CITY, Two' O'CLOCK.
The markets for Foreign and Colonial Produce
during the last few days have been exceedingly
dull, the demand for most of the leading staples
having diminished. Tea, however, has slightly im-
proved, as the telegraphic advices from China
announce that the quantity to be shipped during
the season would be considerably short of that in
the preceding year. The stocks here show a defi-
. ciency of about 8,000,000 lbs. compared with those
at the same period in 1857. Sugar has been exceed-
ingly dull, although prices continue to be well
supported. In the refined market the transactions
have been limited, and confined to small quantities
for home consumption. Coffee continues firm, and
plantation Ceylon realises full values. Cocoa has
slightly improved, but rice, rum, and spices have
been dull. For fruit there has been a moderate
demand, more particularly for new currants, which
have slightly improved ; but Valencia raisins and
figs have shown a downward movement in values.
Saltpetre continues in fair demand, and prices
remain firm. Tallow has been inactive, very few
transactions having been reported, and price§ have
exhibited no alteration of importance.
Letters from Liverpool report that the Cotton
Market yesterday closed very firmly, and 8,000
bales were sold at full quotations. The Railway
Share Market presented rather more animation,
and the prices of all the leading lines improved.
The Australian mail contract, which has been
some time in suspense, has just been awarded to
the Peninsular and Oriental Steani. Navigation
Company, who had as their competitors the Royal
Mail Compan'v. It is to be hoped that this decision
will prove satisfactory to the commercial classes
connected with Australia, who have hitherto been
seriously inconvenienced by the previous irregu-
laiities of the service.

About £25,000 in gold was taken into the Bank
yesterday. The silver market is rather brisker,
there being a slight demand for the East ; bars are
quoted Ss. lkd. per ounce; standard .and dollars,
4s. 111 d. per ounce.

No material change has taken place in the gene-
ral features of the discount market, but the tendency
of monetary affairs on the Continent may, it is
thought, induce the Bank Directors to maintain the
existing regulations despite the accumulation
of gold. At this season of the year the require-
ments of the commercial public usually increase,
and as the instalments on account of loans, and
other undertakings, now absorb a large aggregate
amount, it is not considered improbable that the
tendency of the market may show some slight indi-
cation of a permanent change.

It is generally expected that the Continental
Exchanges this afternoon will show a further
downward tendency.

Although there has been a flatter tone in the
market for Public Securities no actual decline of
importance has taken place. The settlement is
progreAsing favourably, and increased strength was
created by the appearance of the Government
broker as a buyer of New 3 per Cents. Specula-
tion for a rise is still being carried on
to a moderate extent; which, together with
a few purchases for investment, has imparted
firmness to the market. Consols are now 982 4 for
money, and 981 I for the account. The New 3 per
Cents, are firm at 973; g, and also the Reduced.
India Stock has been dealt in at 224 ; do. Deben-
tures at 992 and those of the 2d issue 991 ; do.
Scrip, 2d issue, 99?-; and the Bonds (under £1,000),
lls. to 14s. The March Exchequer Bills are 355.,
and June ditto, 28s. to 295. prem.
A depressed tone is apparent in the Foreign
Stock Market, and prices are rather lower.
Turkish 6 per Cents, are 941 95 ; ditto Scrip, Ist,
prem. ; ditto; 2d, 14 2 prem. ; ditto 4 per Cent.,

971 ; Equador Provisional Land Warrants, 48 ; and
Dutch 41 per Cents., 1001.
In the Railway Share Market the transactions
this morning have been rather numerous, and in-
creased buoyancy has been apparent in prices.
Bristol and Exeter, Caledonian, Eastern Counties,
Great Western and Brighton, improved 10s. ; Man-
chester, Sheffield, and Lincoln, North British and
North-Eastern (Berwick), ss; North-Western and
South-Eastern, 15s. ; and Great Northern, £l. The
Foreign and Colonial lines have been dull. Paris
and Lyons declined 55., and Lombardo-Venetian ss.
East Indian improved 55., and Grand Trunk of
Canada 10s.

Joint Stock Bank Shares have been in very
limited request, and prices are unaltered.

SUICIDE AT BLAcKFRIARS-BRIDGE.—EarIy yes-
!.erday morning an elderly woman, supposed to have. been
intoxicated, precipitated himself from the Surrey side of
Blackfriars-bridge. Assistance was immediately procured,
but the unfortunate woman could not be fotuid until two
or three hours afterwards. She was immediately conveyed
to the workhouse in a shell, life being quite extinct. She
Was dressed in a cotton gown, silk mantle, straw bonnet,
and low shoes.
SUICIDE IN A VAPOUR BATH.--Yesterday after-
noon Mr. Sergeant Payne held an inquest in the school-
room of Cornhill ward, St. Mary Axe, on the body of Miss
Leigh Bunyon, aged 42, who was found dead in one of the
baths of the establishment, in St. Mary Axe, on Friday
last, under somewhat peculiar circumstances. From the
evidence of the attendants it appeared that there was
nothing strange or excitable in the manner of the de-
ceased when she applied for the bath. She remained in it
an hour and a half, when deceased was found lying
in the bath dead. They immediately sent for
medical assistance, and it was discovered that she had
taken poison, a bottle containing sulphuric acid being found
in the room. Mr. Woodman, a schoolmaster residing in
Devonshire-square, Bishopsgate-street, said that deceased
was his wife's sister, that she was of a very strange and ob-
stinate temper, and that her brother also committed suicide.
She had lived with witness for the last 19 years, and it was
only on Tuesday last that he had brought her back home
after a month's absence in the country. She had been
missing since 12 o'clock on Friday last. The jury returned
as their verdict that deceased destroyed herself while
labouring under temporary insanity.
The Scotch papers say that the Lord

Chief
Justice has greatly distinguished himself by his activity
deer-stalking in Ken Reasort Forest. His lordship took
his departure for the south a few days ago.

CLEVER CAPTURE THROUGH THE AID OF THE
ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.—A remarkable apprehension took
place a day or'two since, showing the immense use of the
electric telegraph in the pursuit and detection of elate':
s. It appears that a man named Tyas, having
uttered a cheque which was discovered to be forged, at
Halifax, for a considerable amount, Superintendent Pear-
son, of the Halifax police, having reason to suspect he had
rted for London, lost no time in telegraphing the parti-
Fulars to Scotland-yard, and the affair having been placed
in the hands of Sergeant R. Tanner, of the detective force,
he succeeded in less than an hour in apprehending Tyas,
who has been conveyed in his charge to Halifax, and placed
the hands o the authorities there*

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day).

BOW-STREET.

A POLICEMAN CHARGED WITH DEFRAUDING THE
AUTHORITIES.—PoIice-constable Gymer, 64 F, the man
who about a year ago suffered a murderous assault at the
hands of a young woman named Donovan, who stabbed
him several times with a table knife, was this morning
placed before Mr. Jardine, on remand, charged with ob-
taining money from the authorities of Scotland-yard by
means of false and fraudulent representations.
It is necessary to explain that in the case of a ticket-of-
leave man committing any infraction of the condition of his
licence, the circumstance is notified to the Home-office, the
licence is revoked, and a warrant issued for the offender's
apprehension and recommittal to serve the remainder of his
original sentence The warrant is forwarded to Mr. Hall
(the chief magistrate) at this court. The clerk notifies to the
superintendent of police that a certain constable is required
to attend at the court at a stated time to receive instruc-
tions. The constable attends accordingly and receives in-
structions from Mr. Hall, or, in his absence, from the sit-
ting magistrate, to go to the place where the convict is to
be found and apprehend him. For this purpose he receives
a warrant. He then takes a printed form called an " im-
prest," which he fills in with an estimate of the expenses of
his journey, and submits it to the superintendent, or, in his
absence, to an inspector, who countersigns. He also hands
in a written report that he has been sent on this duty. The
inspector keeps the report, and the constable takes the im-
prest to Scotland-yard to get the signature of a commis-
sioner. He next proceeds to the office of the receiver-
general of the metropolitan police, where he hands in the
imprest and gets the money.
From the evidence of Inspector Mitchell it appeared that

the prisoner had for about 12 months been occasionally em-
ployed in this kind of duty. On the 18th ult. he presented to
him a report and an imprest. The report set forth that
he was instructed to go to Birmingham to apprehend a
' ticket-of-leave man. The estimate on the imprest was
£l3. The prisoner said he had not got the warrant yet,
but he wanted to get the money before the office in Scot-
land-yard was closed. He signed the imprest, and Gymer
went away. Some days afterwards, seeing Gymer in the
street, he asked him why he was not gone. He said that
he had information that the man was in the infirmary. The
next day ho repeated the same excuse. On the 24th witness
told him that if he did not go the next day he must bring the
money in. He said he would. As he did not do so, he sent
for him on the 26th, which was Sunday, and asked him why
he had not brought in the money. He said he had paid
it in to Mr. Golding, at the receiver's office; adding,
" I did mot know you meant I should pay it here."
Mitchell said if it was paid to Mr. Golding that would do ;
he only wanted to leave no responsibility on his own
shoulders. Prisoner also stated that Mr. Golding tore up
the imprest, which he said was signed by the commissioner.
During the week witness ascertained that the money had
not been paid to Mr. Golding. He then sent for Gymer,
who admitted that he had not paid it, but had it in his
pocket. Witness desired him to put it down on the table,
on which he drew £l2 from his purse, and said he must go
home for another £l. Witness allowed him to do so, and he
went and fetched it. Witness took it, and then said he
should report the prisoner. Gymer begged he would not
do so, as it would lead to his dismissal. He said, "Do for-
give me, Mr. Mitchell. I will tell you all about it. I had
a hole in my pocket and lost my purse, containing £9.
Mitchell said he could not overlook it, and afterwards he
discovered that the prisoner had not received authority to
go to Birmingham to apprehend any convict.

In answer to questions from Mr. Lewis, who appeared
for Gymer, Mitchell said he took the money as a discharge
of the £l3, but did not then know that there was anything
wrong beyond the falsehood that he had paid Mr. Golding.
Would not have let him go without giving up the money.
Mr. Lewis contended that this amounted to a condona-
tion, or at least to treating the case as a monetary transac-
tion.

Mr. Jardine said the jury must decide what was the
motive. There was quite enough for a jury to consider.
He should fully commit the prisoner for trial.
The witnesses were then bound over in the sum of £4O
to appear at the Central Criminal Court, and give evidence
against the prisoner.

Mr. Lewis applied for the prisoner to be admitted to bail.
Mr. Jardine said he had no objectien to that course, but
he should require good and substantial securities.

IMPORTANT TO DINING-ROOM KEEPERS.-401111
Richardson, a cab-driver, badge 10,676, was summoned
under the following circumstances for causing an obstruc-
tion in Mill-street, Conduit-street:—
From the evidence of Charles Graminson, hackney-car-
riage attendant, it appeared that at one o'clock in the day
he was in Mill-street, when he saw the defendant with his
cab and three others outside a coffeehouse, the owners
being inside taking their dinner. The defendant was one
of them, and as they had caused an obstruction he had
summoned them. They were inside 15 minutes.
Summonses were taken out against three others, but as

they were all of a similar nature, one ruled the other.
Mr. Lewis, jun., who appeared for the defence, said the
facts were simply these. The cabmen were in the habit of
dining at Mr. Manton's dining rooms, in Mill-street, leaving
their cabs outside in the care of a person. The defendant
and anothar went in, and just as they were about to come
out two others drove up, placing their cabs behind the first
two, and that was what the carriage attendant called an
obstruction. No one came forward to complain of it ; none
of the neighbours were in attendance. It was not to be
supposed cabmen could be out all day without refreshment,
and the men stopped no longer than was necessary. The
men had been accustomed to do the same thing for some
time without any complaint. _ _

Beadon said the waterman had acted in accordance
with the statute.

Mr. Lewis said he did not mean to contend that he had a
right to stop there, but there was no obstruction, as there
were seldom more than two there at onetime. Mr. Manton,
who was a respectable tradesman, was in court, and would
for the future abide by any regulation his worship would
lay down for his guidance. _ _ .

. -
The carriage attendant said he should not have sum-
moned them only one of them was insulting to him.
Mr. Bcadon said then, because one insulted him he sum-
moned them all.

Mr. Lewis said no doubt he felt his dignity hurt.
Mr. Beadon said he quite agreed that the men should he
allowed to have their meals, and no one wished to prevent
them. As long as there were only two cabs in front of Mr.
Manton's house no complaint would be made, but when
four got in rank, and thus got in front of the neighbours'
houses, that must certainly be considered an obstruction
which could not be allowed. He should dismiss all the
summonses in the present instance.

The decision gave considerable satisfaction.

THAMES.
A VERY SLIGHT BLEMISH: —A very large elderly
woman, of dissipated appearance, who gave the name of
Ann Brown, was brought before Mr. Selfe, charged with
stealing a pint pot.
John Bate, barman at the Blue Anchor public-house, in
Ratcliff-highway, said that last night the prisonei came
into the house and had two half-pints of beer, which were
served to her in two pint pots. He saw her putting the
last pint pot under her apron, and this aroused his suspi-
cions, and caused him to watch her. He saw her leave the
house with the pint pot, when he followed her and took it
from her.'
The prisoner, in her defence, said she had drunk seven
half-pints of gin, besides sundry half-pints of porter, and
became so thirsty that she was almost choked.
Mr. Selfe—l wonder you were not quite choked ; I do
indeed.
The prisoner—Well, sir, I was so thirsty.
Mr. Selfe—A drunhard is always thirsty.
The prisoner—So I took the pint pot to procure some
water, which I knew I could not get in a public house, but
I intended to bring it back again.

1 I

Mr. Selfe—Does any one know the prisoner ?
Francis Kelly, a police-constable, No. 130 11, said the
prisoner had given a fictitious name. Her real name was
Hicks, and she was the wife of a farrier, a most respectable
man, living in New Martin-street, Rosemary-lane. The
woman was very fond of drink. •

11 12

The prisoner—There is not a blemish on my character.
Mr. Selfe—What do you call excessive drinking ?
The prisoner—That is tcvery slight blemish.
Mr. Selfe—l think it is a very great blemish. You
ought to be ashamed of yourself. Go about your business
and keep saber. There is some doubt whether you intended
to steal the pot, and you are discharged.

THE LATE SACRILEGE AT STRATFORD.—At the
Ilford petty sessions on Saturday James List and William
Saville were brought up on remand on the charge of break-
ing into a vault at St John's Church, Stratford, and steal-
ing a copper coffin. The prisoner List made the following
confession :—I was employed by Saville, and was engaged
by him at the church, in July, 1855. On one Saturday
morning I was employed digging a grave in the church-
" Jemmy, what do you say to have yard, when Saville said,
old Dr. Taylor's coffin taken out ?" I said " Oh, no." Ho
replied, " Never mind, let us have it out." We then went
to the Coach and Horses public-house, and we returned.
He brought a chisel, hammer, and other articles with him.
Saville and I then went down into a vault under the
church. We broke open the brickwork of the vault in
which D.r Taylor was buried. The coffin lid was taken off,
and the coffin was tilted and taken into the adjoining vault.
We•removed the copper coffin, which was broken up into
pieces. The metal was left in the vault. About a week
afterwards Saville said, " Jemmy, come and let us have the
out." He meant the brother of Dr. Taylor. We
then broke up the leaden coffin, and left it until the Mon-
day, when Saville fetched a man with a barrow and some
bags to the church, and the metal was taken to a house near
the Green Man, in East-street, where it was sold to a rag-
man. Ido not know his name, but I should know the man
if I were to see him. I bricked up the vault afterwards,
and Saville was drunk under the church. (Saville at this
part of the proceedings laughed.) I received 10s. 6d. from
Saville for my trouble. Saville made the arrangements
respecting the sale of the metal ; and I do not know what
Saville received. List was then subjected to a long cross-
examination from Mr. Rawlings, the solicitor, but his tes-
timony was not in any way shaken. Mr. Helling re-
quested that the prisoners might be kept apart, and he also
asked permission for the conveyanee of the man List to
Stratford, with the view of identifying the man who pur-
chased the stolen metal. the proceedings were then ad-
journed fora week,
