THAAIES.

How COALS ARE STOLEN ON TILE RlVER.—Three
Charles Collins, and
Morrison, were brought
boys, named Joseph Foley,
brrehfoolr73Blr.l°PYatratnri'dgctel,iasey,
charged with stealing 180 lbs.
of coal from a barge on the river.
Inspector Read, of the Thames police, stated
that the banks of the river were infested with young
thieves, who plundered the coal barges to a great
extent. A few nights ago a ton and a half of coals
were taken from a barge moored alongside a coal
wharf. Last night the prisoners were in a craft
belonging to Sargeant and Green of Shadwell,
taking away the best lumps, and carrying them on
shore. He disposed of his boats' crew on the
wharf, got on board the barge by a ladder, from
which the coals were taken, and captured all the
prisoners. There were 180 lbs. of coals on shore.
They had been taken from the Isabella. Foley and
Collins had been convicted before, and were most
notorious young thieves.
Mr. Partridge said the prisoners ought to have
been at school, and if they were brought before him
again and convicted he should send them to a re-
formatory and compel their parents to maintain
them. He sentenced them to be imprisoned and
kept in hard labour, Foley for 3 months, Collins 2
months, and Morrison to 6 weeks.
A QUARREL OVER THE DEAD.--Ilenry Manley, a
tall young man, was brought before Mr. Partridge
charged with assaulting Fanny Manley, his brother's
wife, who said that the prisoner accused her of call-
ing his mother a bad name
last night, threw some
beer over her, and then followed her into the street.
She dodged him for some time, and at last he caught
her and beat her about the head and face, blackened
her eye and caused it to bleed.

Mr. Partridge—Did you call his mother a ?

Witness—No, I did not, sir.
Mr. Gomm, for the defence, said the father of
the prisoner and his brother was lying dead. There
was a most unseemly quarrel over his remains last
night. The prisoner did consider that bad words
were used towards his mother, and he was now very
sorry that in a moment of excitement he did that
for which lie was now very sorry indeed, and was
willing to make an apology.
The prisoner expressed his sorrow for using vio-
lence to his sister-in-law. The apology was ac-
cepted. He was bound over to keep the peace, and
discharged.

The Price of Gold.

The quotation of gold at Faris is about at par, and
the short exchange on London is 25.11 per £1 sterling. ( n
toniparing; these rates with the Engl►sh Mint price of
tOid. per ounce for standard gold, it appe.i.ris that gold is
about the sauce price in Paris and London.
