MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

James Dodd was charged by Mrs. Martin, an assistant dealer
in the marine store line, with stealing some clothes, her pro-
perty. _ _ .

Prosecutrix, who was supported by two umbrellas from in-
firmity, stated, that firstly, her eyes never deceived her ; se-
condly, she had all the things in her eye, and nobody could
have taken them but the 'prisoner ; and thirdly, that he had
been guilty of a gross breach of hospitality, inasmuch as he
had invited her to dinner on Christmas-day, and whilst she
was eating her pudding, had seized the opportunity to steal the
clothes. They were three unmentionable articles of ladies'
attire.

The prisoner asseverated his innocence. He called all the
saints in the calendar in support of his declaration. When he
found this had no effect, he made a last attempt to free him-
self, by a delicate allusion to Mrs. Martin, poor creature, who
was so much afflicted with the gout.—Remanded.

The Deputy-Governorship of Cork is vacant by the
death of Major-General Stirling.

" The delivery of the said sums shall be effected in bills of
exchange drawn on commercial houses of Spain, in monies at
the time circulating in the interior of the kingdom, or in bars
of gold or of silver.
" In respect to any remittance in gold or silver bullion, the
contractor agrees, notwithstanding what was stipulated in his
proposal, that this shall be regulated according to the tariff
applied to the remittances of the same species effected for the
loans of 1821 and 1822.
" Art. 5. As soon as this present treaty shall have been
signed, there shall be placed at the disposal of the contractor,
by way of .anticipation, titles or bonds of the active debt for a
quantity equivalent to the amount of the three first payments
to be effected, otherwise for a nominal capital of 150,000,000,
and in proportion as those and other following payments be
effected, a quantity of active debt, equivalent to the amount of
each one of them, shall be delivered to him, with the excep-
tion of the two last payments, on which the above-mentioned
advance shall be charged, until the due occasion.

commission of 3 per cent. on the nominal quantity of the loan.

last, the day of the date of the proposal, the prices of the bonds
of the loan shall be and continue during the space of eight
days following, on the exchange of London, from one-eighth
to a quarter per cent. at the lowest, above the price of 60 per
cent. In such case, there shall be delivered to the contractor
for the amount of the loan, a nominal quantity of active debt
of 666,666,666 reals vellon, instead of the 701,754,386 reals
vellon, as expressed in article 2.

make use of the power granted by the treaty, made on the 7th

Rothschild, brothers, to reimburse the bonds of the loan the
advances made by their firm, the quantity of bonds of the said
loan to be given in payment to MM. Rothschild, brothers,
shall be deducted from that to be ceded to contractor by the
3d article, and the delivery of the bonds as fixed by article 4,
shall be proportionally reduced.
Art. 9. The contractor shall be exclusively charged, under
the superintendence of the Minister of Finance, &c., of com-
missioners delegated by him for the purpose, with effecting the
conversion of the old foreign debts of Spain.
Art. 10. This operation shall be effected on the basis and
within the period of time fixed by the law of the 16th of No-
vember last. It shall be arranged in such a manner as to avoid
that the markets shall be overstocked with the new funds to be
issued for the conversions, in order not to injure the issue of
the loan ; and it may also, according to the circumstances of
the said markets, be effected by means of a system of conven-
tion combined with the delivery of sums in specie ; of which
system one of the results would be to supply in all or in part
the loan as above specified.
" Art. 11. In order to facilitate to the contractor the opera-
tion of the conversion, there shall be placed at his disposal, as
may be convenient, the necessary quantities of titles or bonds
of the active and of the passive debt.

the expenses of the aforesaid conversion, a half per cent. on
the nominal amount of the converted bonds, which commission
shall be made good to him every month, and in proportion to
the amount of the conversions effected.

contractor takes upon himself to defray, from the commission
granted as above, shall be included those of the formation and
finishing of all the bonds to be created, as well for the con-
version as for the loan.

be issued, as well for the amount of the loan, as touching the
conversion of the old debt, shall be payable every six months ;
viz., on the Ist of May, and on the Ist of November, each
year, at the Exchanges of Madrid, Paris, and London ; the
payments in Paris to be made at the exchange of 5 francs
40 centimes for the dollar, and the payments in London at
the rate of ss. 3d. per dollar. If during the course of the
operation the contractor shall judge it necessary in order to
facilitate the execution thereof, to make arrangements for the
peyment of a certain quantity of the bonds at the Exchanges
of Amsterdam, Brussels, or Antwerp, the Government of her
Majesty shall not give a refusal thereunto ; the exchange
which shall be to he paid in one or other of those places, shall
be settled hereafter.

" Art. 15. The contractor shall have the right of deter-
mining the proportion, in which the payment is to be fixed in
each of those places mentioned in the preceding article, of
the coupons of interest.
" Art. 16. Tithes payable to the bearer may, at the request
of the holders, be converted into nominal inscriptions payable
in Madrid. Bonds or tithes payable to foreigners can be al-
ways changed, at the wish of their holders, for bonds or tithes
payable in Madrid ; but those payable in the latter city, can-
not be converted into bonds or tithes payable abroad.
" Art. 17. Notwithstanding the provisions of the preceding
article, the contractor reserves to himself the power in case he
should consider it useful for the successful results of the opera-
tion, to demand that the titles of the rentes, which are to be
delivered, shall be payable indistinctly at the choice of their
holders, in every one of the places designated in the 14th
article, and at the rate of exchange therein specified.
" Art. 18. In conformity with the clauses of the Bth and
9th articles of the law of the 16th of November last, there
shall be created a sinking fund of a half per cent. per annum,
of the amount of the active d.bt, issued for the liquidation of
the old debt, which shall be exclusively dedicated to the re.
payment of the active debt ; the bonds or titles thus redeemed
or repaid shall be annulled or replaced successively in the
grand book of the active debt by an equal sum of the passive
debt, to be taken by lots, at periodical drawings. The afore-
said fund shall be augmented every year, commencing from
1838, in the proportion of the part of the passive debt created
for the conversion of the unpaid interest of the Cortes Bonds
which shall pass to the active debt, in conformity with the 6th
article of the law of the 16th of November last. According
to the provisions of the aforesaid article 6, the Government of
her Majesty shall add to the action of the means of amortiza-
tion already specified, all ulterior means which the Govern-
ment can have at its disposal, in order to accelerate the re-
payment of the passive debt.
" Art. 19. Besides the funds of amortization to be created
as aforesaid, there shall be applied to the amortization of the
active debt, conformably to the 12th article of the above-
mentioned law, another fund of a half per cent., equally
every year, on the amount of the active debt, to be issued for
the loan. _ _

" Art. 20. The Government of her Majesty engages itself
not to make, during the year following the completion of this
treaty, any other issue of a foreign active debt, excepting
such as may have for their object the execution of the afore-
said treaty. If after the expiration of the said term, the
Government of her Majesty shall find itself under the necessity
