than last year, and the estimate of the supply of next year

There is 1;ow a better supply of new Tobacco at market, and
the Importers m^re
_inclined to sell, but the exporters do not
feel inclined to purc::skie largely at the present prices ; they
appear to look after only sZiall parcels at low prices. The car-
goes of the rejected Virginia To,:lacco sell about 335. to 345., the
better class of passed Tobacco about 405. Stripts 6-d. to

titterly 401., on account of the failure of the fishery.
Patti-There have been extensive arrivals of all descrip-
tions of nett' Fruit this week, which has checked the demand ;

wish that, for the public convenience, it should be cit
CU-
lated through the counties interested:—
'° Sessions House, Old Bagey, Nov. 3, 1835.
" SIR,—At a meeting of the Judges, which took place
yesterday, for the purpose of appointing Cse days for bold-
lag the sessions for the Central Criminal Co, in during the.
ensuing year, certain regulations were made repecting eho
business of the sessions, which, so far as it is neLesaary to
trouble you on the subject, are as follows :
" All Essex, Kent, and Surrey cases (except mae.der
and manslaughter, and all cases prosecuted by Goverment)
arc to go before the Grand Jury on Monday, the first d.ly
of the sessions. All Government cases, all London cascr
(except murder and ,manslaughter), and all Middlesex
capital cases (except murder) arc to go before the Grand
Jury on Tuesday. All other Middlesex cases (except
manslaughter) are to go before the Grand Jury on Wed-
nesday.
"All cases of murder or manslaughter are to go before
the Grand Jury on Thursday.
" It must be evident that if these regulations are pro-
perly carried into effect, great saving of time and trouble
to witnesses, and expense to the several counties will fol-
low. I bav,.', therefore, to request that you will have the
goodness to beg the Magistrates presiding at your office to
lend their assistanet: to carry the same into effect by giving
notice to all the parfib.., who appear before them as wit-
nesses to attend on such Pf the days above named as the
case in which they are bound Dyer as witnesses will be pre-
sented to the Grand Jury. It will tend also materially to
assist in preparing the indietwents for the Grand Jury, if
the deposition, taken inlthe several cases are transmitted to
my office as soon as conveniently nit
v be after the prison-
ers are committed, say one in each w,
eek. A list of ses-
sions is enclosed. •

POLICE IN TELLIGENCE.

MANSION-HOUSE,

Mr. Livermore, who stated himself to be a merchant,
was summoned before the Lord MAYOR for having appro-
priated to his own use certain goods which had been in-
trusted to his care, as agent to a Mr. Bragge, an actist.
Mr. Humphries attended as solicitor to the complainant,
and Mr. Clarkson, the Barrister, defended Mr, Livermore.
At the outset Mr. Clarkson expressed great anxiety to
have the case postponed, in the hope that by an accommo-
datLon the necessity of exposing some names and transac-
tions be obviated. Mr. Humphries made no ob-
jection, but the defendant insisted that the examination
should be proceeded with. ,
Mr. Bragge stated that on or about the 27th of October
he gave Mr. Livermore directions to buy a quantity of
paper, for the purchase of 02lich the defendant was to have
a commission. The defendant afterwards told him that
the paper was bought, and received from him his promis-
sory note for 4011. ls., indorsed by a gentleman who had
done so to oblige him. Witness also gave to the defend-
ant an order upon Mr. Imray, agent for Messrs. Hilton
and Co., of whom the purchase was made, for the delivery
of the paper upon the receipt of the promissory note.
Witness saw the paper lodged in defendant's warehouse,
and gave him directions not to remove it without an order.
He afterwards, however, found that part of the property
was pawned, and, upon going to the defendant's house to
see whether the defendant would deliver up the paper, that
person said to him, " Your paper ! I don't know. The
paper is not yours."
Mr. Clarkson asked what the complainant, as an artist,
wanted with 500 reams of paper ?
The Lord MAYOR said that a man might speculate in
papa as well as any thing else.
CL:rkson—Was it not a scheme to raise money to
answer an cullerg
ency ? Mr. Bragge—Never mind. I
pictures and sold them at a reduced
price to raise motiffor other speculations.
Mr. Clarkson—Hai:
have often hoPE:'t
not you and the indorser and the
defendant rowed in the sat.
-le boat to obtain goods ? It is
admitted that the transaction
-as undertaken to raise money.
v.
The Lord MAYOR—The qm:tion is, whether the de-
fendant had a right to dispose of tk's Paper.
Mr. Bragge—My bill has paid for
Mr. Clarkson—The fact is they are a;1 principals in the
transaction. The paper, which it was pretended was ob-
tained to impress with South American prints, was, in fact,
got for no other purpose than that of being turned into
money.
Mr. Imray, agent to Messrs. Hilton and Co., of Budge-
row, stated that he had had dealings with Mr. Livermore,
who acted as agent for Mr. Bragge, and whom witness be-
lieved to be in every degree agent for that genileman. He
gave the paper and received the iiromissory note.
Mr. Livermore stated that lie had been for the last four
months endeavouring to raise money for the indorser of the
note, and the present transaction was part of the means
adopted. An execution had suddenly been sent to the en-
dorser's house, and he (Mr. Livermore) had authority to
sell as much of the paper as would pay it out. He com-
plained bitterly of the advantage which be said Lad been
'Wien of him.
Robert Stamp, clerk to Mr. Livermore, said that he
hearj a conversation between Mr. Bragge and the defen-
dant on Monday last, when they dined together in the
house of the latter. Witness was in the adjoining room.
Mr. Bragge said that 1301. must be raised, as the indorser
wanted it, an ex.nattion being in the house. Witness also
heard Bragge state that the indorser wished the thing was
brought to a conclus.:ol.; as he was fearful they might all be
indicted for a conspiracy,. Mr. Bragge also said that he
should not have regretted it, but for two words. " What
are they ?" said Mr. Livermore. " South America,' said
Mr. Bragge. Mr. Livermore observed that if he were to
sell the paper at once, it must be cold at a great sacrifice ;
but Mr. Bragge declared that 130/. must be raised by any
means, and expressed surprise that the paper bad not been
sold before.
The LORD MAYOR—Did Mr. Bragge allow him to dis-
pose of any of the paper for himself? Witness—Yes. He
was to receive paet of the profit.
Mr. Bragge said le evidence of Stamp was false.
Mr. Clarkson submitted that no offence bad been com-
mitted. It was evident that Bragge and Livermore had
been agepts in this business for another party. Indeed if
he saw Messrs. Hilton and Co. complaining of having been
defrauded of their paper, he should not have been as-
tonished.
Mr. Humphries contended that theta was no doubt of
the agency of Mr. Livermore, who had nut shown that he
had received any authority to pawn the goods. In fact,
either as agent or as factor, Mr. Livermore had been guilty
of an offence.
The LORD MAYOR said that whatever might be the
na-
ture of the transactions between the complainant and de-
fendant, it did not appear in any way that the former had
given to the latter a commission to pledge the goods. Mr.
Bragge was the legal bona fide possessor of the paper, and
Mr. Livermore was his agent.
The defendant was then ordered to find bail to answer
for the misdemeanour.

BOW-STREET.
Yesterday Charles Blake Skcrrctt, who has been twice
More examined on several charges of robbing hotels of
valuable property, was brought up for a final examination,
when following additional charge was brought forward
against him :
Mr. Thuuns Gilbert, a linen-draper at Portsmouth, dc-
posed that on the 20th of October he was stopping at the
Sussex Hotel, Bouveriestreet, Fleet-street, and went out
during the day, leaving a great coat and a dross coat in his
sleeping-room. When he retnroed he found that his room
had been entered and the two coats stolen. The coats now
produced by the pawnbrokers were his property, and the
same so stolen.
James Thorne, porter at the Sussex i!otel, stated that
the prisoner came, to that bodse and ordered dinner, and
asked if be could have a bed? He was shown to a bed-
, room, where lie remained until he was called to his dinner.
When be had dined he went again to the bed•roorn, and in
a few minutes came down and walked out, saying to the
head waiter t:-.at he should be back in'a short time. He
did not return.
Two pawnbrokers produced the coats, which were pledged
by the prisoner on the 14th of October, the great coat for
21., and the dress coat with a dressing case for 41.
Fletcher, the officer, deposed that he found the two du-
plicates in a secret drawer in a-dressing-case in the priso-
ner's bed-room in Leicester-square. -
The prisoner said nothing, and was fully committed for
trial upon three charges of robery.

QUEENUARE.
Yesterday Benjamin, Bolton, an elderly man, whose ap-
pearance indicated that he had seen better days, was
brought up in custody before Messrs. WHIM and BURRELL,
the sitting Magistrates, charged with stealing two pair of
boots, the property of Nathaniel Soloman, t general sales-

man.
The prosecutor stated that on the previous evening, be-
tween eight and nine o'clock, he saw the prisoner loitering
about his premises, which are situated near the church at
Newington. Having a suspicion that he meant no good,
witness watched him, and on his (witness's) going towards
the back of his premises, the prisoner walked hastily to-
wards the shop-door, and, seizing two pair of bcots that
were hanging up, made the best of his way off. Witness
followed as quick as possible, and, overtaking the prisoner,
gave him in charge to a policeman, with the stolen property
i n his possession.
John Clarke, police constable, division L 31, stated that
en the previous evening, between eight and nine o'clock,
