POLICE INTELL IG CE---( THIS DA

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

INGENIOUS DETECTION OF A THlEP.—James Kingett,
described as a frame maker, was charged before Mr.
Beadon, as follows :
Mr. Lambert Doublet, a French wine merchant, at 7,
Great Newport-street (who gave his evidence through Mr.
Albert), said that he rented the lower part of the premises,
and the prisoner lodged in the same house. In consequence
of having for some wkeks past lost a quantity of wine and
brandies, he on the previous evening, about six o'clock,
locked his clerk in the second cellar, which commanded a
view of the first, so as if possible to detect the thief. He
then went out with his wife, so as to make it appear that
he had left the premises, and on returning about six
minutes afterwards he found his clerk calling for help, and
on going down to the first cellar found his clerk holding
the prisoner.
Committed for trial.

THE FRENCH COMMERULIL TREATY.

The members of the Council-General of the

Herault, a few days ago, gave a banquetto the Pre-
fect; and M. Michel Chevalier, senator, who pre-
sided, spoke as follows in proposing the health of
the Emperor :

" Matter for praise is abundant, and every year
it is largely increased. One year it is a populous
and enlightened nation which is freed from an
aggression that had lasted for centuries ; it is the
glorious land which the laurels of the Scipios and
Cincinnati, of Virgil and Dante, of Raphael and
Michael Angelo, still adorn; that year places the
trophies of Magenta and Solferino by the side of
those of Rivoli, Marengo,' and Marignan. In
another year, the present one, it is a victory of
another kind which has been won; a victory not
less brilliant than those of the greatest captains,
but which does not cause the tears of mothers to
flow ; which, on the contrary, makes nations re-
joice, and satisfies alike the philosopher ii, his study,
the peasant in his cottage, and the workman in his
garret; this new triumph, which is the biography
of the Emperor, will so nobly mark the year of
1860, you have already named, for it is particularly
dear to our hearts—it is the commercial reform by
which the Emperor, so to speak, setting along in
movement the vessel which was stationed among
the reefs of prohibition, has sent it in full sail into
the waters of free trade. He did that when the
partisans of the prohibitive system flattered them-
selves on having founded their domination on a
rock, and when a vulgar observer might have sup-
posed that their power was indestructible ; he did
it when, in all parts of France, the defenders of
commercial liberty had abandoned themselves to
discouragement, for which, however, you, my dear
colleague, by an exception which will be for the
department an immense honour, were able to pre-
serve yourselves. The consequences of this com-
mercial reform are incalculable. It belongs to the
highest ideas and vastest designs; it forms part of
a programme which, on the one hand, improves the
high policy of popular amelioration, and on the
other, the object of which civilisation will have
much to congratulate itself—the drawing of waters
together, and the consolidation of the peace of the
world. That programme, gentlemen, be assured,
will succeed."
