THE ruNDs.

It could not be expected, that the Lisbon mail of the 3d
July, which arrived this morning, could bring any infor-
mation of the result of Don Pedro's expedition, as by
the best calculation it is not expected it will reach the
coast of Portugal until about the Sth of July. Consols
opened at the leaving off price-841 85 for the account.
A Dutch steamer• is expected to arrive i❑ the course of the
day. In the Foreign Alsrket nothing doing as yet.

HALF-PAST ONE.

Consols have improved since the early part of the morn•
ing, owing to the French Rentes coming I to 1 per cent.
higher. It appears that Don Pedro's proclamation to his
army before he sailed has found its way into the Portu-
guese capital, and it is expected will have great effect.
Consols are at present 851, sellers.

EXECUTION OF REILLY FOR MURDER.
(THIS MORNING.)

Pursuant to his sentence, Thomas Reilly, the men
who was condemned on Monday last for the wilful mol-
der of his wife, Catherine Reilly, was executed this morn.
ing in front of Newgate.
Reilly, who was a Roman Catholic, was attended by
Mr. Rolfe, of the Roman Catholic Chapel, Aloorfields, and
by Mr. Baker.
Mr. Sheriff Perie remained with the criminal up to ten
o'clock last night, when he left him apparently very com-
posed and penitent. In allusion to the crime of which
he had been convicted, he said, " I was drunk and sleepy.
and cannot tell what took place." Beyond this nothing
further could be elicited. Mr. Sheriff Perie again visite
the miserable man between five and six o'c!ock this morn
ing, when he found him deeply engaged in his devotion•
and praying aloud. The Sheriff put several questions ti
him, when he replied, " I am perfectly happy and trust
in the Almighty for forgiveness."
Precisely at eight o'clock the culprit was removed from
the cell, and surrendered himself calmly into the hands of
the officer, who, having pinioned his wrists and elbows,
led him through the narrow passages of the prison to the
scaffold. Mr. Baker assisted him up, as his frame began
to totter, but he immediately recovered his fortitude, and
took his station on the platform with surprising firmness
When the cap was drawn over his eyes, the unhappy man
again prayed aloud, and continued to do so till the drop
fell. For some seconds he was observed to struggle, and
it was apparent to all that life was not extinct ; however,
by the aid of the executioner, who clung to his legs, his
misery was of short duration.
During yesterday the culprit wrote a letter, which he
addressed to the lady of Mr. Sheriff Perie, wherein he
declared that he was totally unconscious of what he did on
the night in question, and admitting that, owing to the
irritability of his temper, which was increased by the
liquor he had taken, and his feelings being worked upon
by the tauntings of his wife, he might have committed
the dreadful act, but be declared, as he hoped to be for-
given by the Almighty, that he was not aware of what he
was doing.
At nine o'clock the body was cut down, and removed
in a cart to be dissected pursuant to his sentence.

OLD BAILEY.-(THIS DAY.)

OLD COURT.

David Potter, Ann Potter, his wife, and Ann Hill,
were indicted for stealing a quantity of household
furniture, the property of Mr. William Evans, at
Enfield Wash way.
Mr. W. Evans had a house at Enfield Washwav,
but left it in December last, together with all the
furniture. He fastened the windows and locked all
the doors. On the 14th of May he returned to the
house, and found it had been completely stripped of
the furniture, the door was on the latch, and upon
search he ascertained that the house had been en-
tered at the back part. He gave information of the
robbery at Worship street Office, and on the 19th
of May he went to the house of the prisoner
Potter, at Waltham Abbey, which he found fur-
nished with his stolen property—part of it was
concealed in one of the straw paliasses.
Further evidence was adduced, after which the
Jury returned a verdict of Guilty of larceny against
Potter.

Mrs. Sophia Ho)Wer, who carries on the business
of a dressmaker in Hanover-street, Hanover-square,
pleaded guilty to an indictment charging her with
purloining eighteen yards of riband from the shop
of Messrs. Hodges and Lowman, linen-drapers,
Regent-street.

The Court deferred passing judgment for the
present.

SIIEEP-STEALING.—Bernard 11PAramee, aged 33,
drover, remanded from last session, whose trial was
not concluded yesterday when we went to press,
was found Guilty.
THE FORGED LOTTERY-TICKET.—Robert Bloicc,
a carpenter, aged 43, was indicted for having uttered
a forged share of a lottery-ticket, with intent to
defraud John Rowland Durant, a partner in the firm
of Hazard and Co., the late lottery contractors.
The particulars of this case have already been
published in this paper, as appeared in proceedings
at the Police-office.

After hearing several witnesses, the Foreman of
the Jury rose and said, that the Jury had made up
their minds to acquit the prisoner.
A verdict of acquittal was hailed by a burst of
applause, accompanied by loud clapping of hands
from all parts of the Court, which was very much
crowded.

NEW COUR T.
ROBBERY AT THE FIRE AT SMITHERS'S HOUSE.

Anthony Clarke was indicted for stealing a gold watch
and a variety of other valuable articles, the property of
Miss Catherine Twamley, sister to the late Miss Twamley,
for whose murder Smithery was hanged on Monday last.
The prosecutrix, who appeared much affected by the
recent calamity, deposed to having lodged in the house of
Smithers, and having lost the property now produced at
the time of the fire, a portion of which she identified as
her own, and the remainder belonged to her sister during
her lifetime, but became hers by her recent death.
Mr. Smart, a gold-refiner in Prince's-street, Soho,
proved the prisoner bringing a gold watch, gold chain, and
silver guard chain, to his shop, and offering them for sale.
Witness refused to purchase them, and, having heard of
the fire in Oxford-street, he suspected that they had been
stolen therefrom, and he therefore detained the prisoner,
and gave him into custody.

The prisoner acknowledged that he found the property
in the ruins, but denied that he intended to appropriate
them to his own use.

The Jury found him Guilty, and he was sentenced to be
transported for ,even years.

The grand entertainment at Guildhall, to his
MAJEaTY's Ministers, in celebtation of the passing of the
Reform Bill, takes place on to day. The Committee have
recommended that no illuminations be exhibited on the
occasion.

In answer to a correspondent, we may state
that the inhabited house duty is usually, though not ne-
cessarily, calculated on two-thirds only of the rent ac-
tually paid.

THE CHOLERA AT SOUTH SHIELDS.-
We regret to state, that this disease, which singularly
passed over South Shields, while it committed ravages at
Sunderland, Newcastle, and North Shields, has at length
made its appearance in that town. There have been
three cases ; they are in a filthy situation, and Lave all
terminated fatally.— Tyne Mercury.
Mr. CARTWRIGIIT, of Aynho, comes for-
ward again for Northamptonshire, on " the conservative
interest." Lord ALTHoRr's recent visit to his noble
father's seat was connected, it is thought, with his inten-
tion of coming forward as a candidate for the Southern
division of the county. Mr. CARTWRIGHT, in his ad-
dress, has the following passage :—" Having been for
thirty-four years the Representative of the undivided
county of Northampton, it cannot be necessary to make
new professions."

SIR WALTER SCOTT.--On Saturday even-
ing Sir WALTER SCOTT, accompanied by his two daughters,
and Mr. LOCKHART, embarked on board the James Watt
steam-packet for Leith. The party arrived at Blackwall
in two travelling carriages, in one of which lay Sir
WALTER SCOTT in a recumbent posture, with Mr. LOCK..
HART seated by his side. The vessel was lying at the
jetty, and the carriage was hoisted on board by means of a
large crane, and when on deck was gently wheeled to the
door of the cabin appropriated to the use of the Illustrious
Baronet. The most entire stillness prevailed throughout
the interval—even the accustomed yee hoo, which was at
one moment given, was scarcely made audible to the by-
standers. It was altogether a scene of the most painful
interest, and forcibly impressed all present.
ARREST of MESSRS. J. A. CURRAN AND
WILLAM CURRAN.—J. A. CURRAN and WILLIAM CUR-
RAN, Esqrs., were arrested on Saturday evening, at eight
o'clock, by peace-officers HARTLEY and BRADSHAW, and
conveyed to the head Police-office, where, after having
been detained about un hour and a half, they gave bail,
each in the sum of 5001. and two sureties in 2501. each,
to answer the subjoined charges, as set forth in the war-
ran'. A copy of the informations was refused by the
Magistrates : "For unlawfully conspiring and combining,
together with other persons, at Bohernebrena, on the Ist
July, 1832, and unlawfully, by threats and menaces, com-
pelling THOMAS DONOGIe, JAMES JONES, --- JONES,
