COMMERCIAL INTELLIGZNCE,

TWELVE O'CLOCK.
The report in the general discount market, so
far as the last few days are concerned, might have
been almost stereotyped. The inquiries are mode-
rate, and the rates in general discount circles range
from 2i upwards, according to the class of paper
offered for negotiation.
There were no bullion operations at the Bank of
England yesterday.
Gold to the amount of £106,000 has arrived from
Australia by the Echunga, and £32,000 by the
Pride of the Ocean. The City of Washington, from
New York, has brought about £3,000 in specie.
Advices received from Paris respecting the large
finance institutions state that the last balance-
sheet of the Credit Mobilier shows very heavy losses,
to which a further loss this month of between two
and three millions has to be added. It is the
amalgamation of the new shares with the old which
presses so heavily on the prices. The new share-
holders have doubled the capital, and do not receive
any profit realised before the Ist January, 1867,
and at the same time decline to have any share of
the loss of the eight millions, as shown on the balance-
sheet to the 31st December, 1866. The shares
have again declined last week 50f., from
456 to 406 ; and the Immobilier in the
same time receded from 300 to 215, showing a fall
°1 180 f. in one month. The Credit Foncier shares
fell last week from 1,467.50 to 1,380, and are still
considered too high. In the portfolios of the insti-
tution there is the signature of M. de Haussman to
the amount of 202,000,000 f.
The seventh ordinary general meeting of the
standard Bank of British South Africa (Limited)
Will be held at the new offices of the company, 10,
Clement's-lane, Lombard-street, on Friday, the
26th April.
With respect to the tea market, Messrs. Layton
and Co., in their fortnightly circular, state as
follows :—There is no improvement whatever in the
condition of the tea market ; indeed during the
past fortnight, where importers have pressed sales,
Prices have in nearly every instance favoured the
buyers, the dulness and depression previously re-
Ported continuing to the close. By private con-
tract the dealers have only been induced to operate,
as before, for immediate requirements, while
at public auction, although the quantity brought
forward " without reserve" has been very
Moderate, great heaviness prevailed, and lower
quotations were current for all descriptions of
Congou, the decline (fully ld. per lb.) being most
marked in fair black-leaf of new import, medium
red-leaf kinds realising comparatively steady rates.
lhere has been a good inquiry :for common Congou
dative port, and some disposition to buy for specu-
account at 11d. to 11-1-d. per lb. ; with this
exception the market has remained generally in-
active, and where sales of any extent have taken
_Place it has been at the above reduction. The
,e.atimated stock of tea in the United Kingdom on
e Ist inst. amounted to 93,853,000 lbs., against
195,516,000 lbs. last year at the corresponding
Period.
a 'lle rice market for the past month has shown
purposes, and
demand for soft grained rice for cleaning
iii•lrposes, and the stocks steadily decreasing the
idlers operated freely, securing all available parcels,
c_. Producing a further advance of 3d. to 6d. per
;et. At this period the early cargoes of new rice
effre,als° in request, and considerable sales were
tateic'ed at late rates to a slight advance, the expec-
°° of their arriving upon a bare market, and
ceweintparativu cheapness—being about 9d. to Is. per
nientunder spot value—proving the chief induce
t° buyers.

UR. GLADSTONE'S LATEST AMEND•
MENTS TO THE REFORM BILL.

The following circular has been addressed by the
Chancellor of the Exchequer to the members of the
Conservative party in the House of Commons :
"My dear Sir,—Mr. Gladstone has given notice
of-a series of amendments which he proposes to
move in committee on the Reform Bill, on Thursday
next.

" These amendments are Mr. Coleridge's relin-
quished instruction in another form.
" The first of them relates to the vital question of
residence, and if any one of them be adopted it wil
be impossibie for the Government to proceed with
the bill.

" I shall, therefore, feel particularly obliged by
your attendance in the House of Commons on that
evening.--I have the honour to remain faithfully
" B. DISRAELI.

POLICE INTELLIGEACE.--This Day

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

CHARGE AGAINST A CAB PROPRIETOR.—John Tripple,
cab proprietor, of No. 25, New Tothill-street, Westminster,
was brought before Mr. Tyrwhitt charged with receiving
two axle-trees and two pairs of springs, the property of Mr.
Thomas Weldhen, of No. 12, London-mews, Fitzroy-
square, well knowing that they were fraudulently obtained.
The prisoner was further charged with hrving in his pos-
session two sets of new harness, four new silk umbrellas,
one with a cocoanut stem handle, a pair of silvor tongs,
and a spoon marked "T. A. E.," some teaspoons marked
"J. E.," two silver watches, one maker's ,na►e Cooper, a
gold watch, a metal watch, a leather hat-box and hat, a pair
of gold spectacles, two electro-plated teapots and a coffee.
pot, and a large quantity of other articles supposed to be
stolen.

Mr. Lewis, of Great Marlborough-street, appeared for
he prisoner.

It should be stated that yesterday a young man named
James Johnson was charged with obtaining the axle-trees
and springs by means of forged orders from Mr. Weldhen,
a carriage ironmonger in London-mews, the orders pur-
porting to come from Mr. Cowan, of Pitt-street, Old Kent-
road, and he was remanded, Sergeant Ham, 5 P, informing
the magistrate that the prisoner had given him some infor-
mation which would enable him to And the receiver.

Sergeant Ham now said that last night he accompanied
Sergeant Burrough, 21 E, to the prisoner Tripple's house,
in New Tothill-street, Westminster. He told the prisoner
that he had come about some axletrees and springs, and
asked the prisoner if he had purchased any during the last
week, and he said "Y 08." He then asked the prisoner who
he bought them of, and he said "A young man.". The
prisoner's wife then went to a file, and showed him the re-
ceipt for one pair of springs—"Paid J. Edwards D. 55."
He asked the prisoner if he had any receipt for the axle-
trees, and he said, "No, I did not take one." He then
asked the prisoner how much he paid for the axletrees,
and be said £1 25. He then told the prisoner that he
should take him into custody for receiving the property,
well knowing that it was fraudulently come by, and the
prisoner made no reply. He asked the prisoner where the
axletrees were, and behind a box in the prisoner's bedroom
found them and the springs in the corner of the
room. He said he took no receipt for the axletrees, as he
thought it was all right. In a cupboard in the room he
found a large quantity of property. He believed he should
be able to find owners for them, more especially so as some
spoons he found corresponded with the description circu-
lated of some spoons which were stolen a short time ago.
In answer to Mr. Lewis, the sergeant admitted there
was no attempt at concealment on the part of the
prisoner.

Mr. Thomas Weldhem identified tho axletrees and
springs as his property, and said thair value was about £7.
Sergeant Ham asked for a remand. •
Mr. Lewis said he could not resist a remand, but he had
to apply that the prisoner might be admitted to bail.
Mr. Tyrwhitt remanded the prisoner, and refused to
take bail.
