A portion of the stolen property, which the prisoner
bad himself pawned, was prodticeut by the assistant of
M. Fryatta, pawnbroker and Mrs. Hewitt identified
the articles as her husband's property.
Marks, the policeman who had charge of tho case,
said the prisoner was a uotorioudy bad character, and
had been in prison fur tix months for robbing another
comrade.

Mr. Strife said the prisoner wala, very had fellow, and

Mr. Elliott compile,' with the request, and the
prisoner was remanded for a week.

GREENWICH.—ASSAULT ON A "WirE. --John
Thomas Crow, plasterer, Grove-street, Greenwich,
was charged with assaulting his wife.
The complainant, a very respectable looking
young woman, who appeared with an infant in her
arms, and whose face was considerably bruised, de-
posed that between seven and eight o'clock on
Saturday night, the prisoner returned home in an
intoxicated state, and, as she was about preparing
him some tea, he told her not to do so, as " he was
no teAotaller." Being desirous at that hour of
the evening to obtain various things for the house,
she then asked hint for some money, when he re-
pLeil that he would sooner throw the money in the
street than she should have it, and at once com-
menced a violent attack upon her by striking her
in the face, when he was given into custody.
Mr.• Seeker asked if the complainant had been
previously ill-treated by her husband ?
The complainant replied in the affirmative. In
January last she preferred a complaint against him
in that court for violence towards her, when he was
bound over to keep the peace for three months.
He then agreed to allow her 6.5. per week for her
maintenance, but as ho afterwards met with an
accident at his work and iojured his leg, she agreed
t) remain and attend to him until his recovery.
All she required was protection from his violence,
as she could no longer think of living with him.
The prisoner, in reply to the magistrate, said he
was sorry for hat ha had done, but that he was
drunk at the time, and he hoped his wife would
forgive him.

Mr. Seeker told the prisoner he was a brutal
fellow, and undeserving of any respectable female
as his partner in life. He had before been com-
plained against, when, from some cause or other,
h 3 had e-caped personal punishment, but for the
prisent offence he would be imprisoned and kept
to bard labour for two months in Maidstone Gaol.

to go on board his ship, having previously deposited

locked and put the key in his packet. On his return
about six o'clock he had occasion to go to his desk,
when he found that the lock had been tampered with,
so that he could not unlock it. He questioned his
other servants as to who had been in his room, when he
was told that the prisoner had called and been up stairs,
where he remained a short time, and then left. Witness

ticketholders were admitted. During the remainder
of that week, and the whole of the nexr, the admis-

complete daily returns were published, viz„ Wed

The sth week was Whitsuntide. The Queen's
visit was ou Tuesday, June 30, in the ninth week,
and the two following days were half-crown days.
The five Saturday afternoons of sixpenny admis-
sions were those of the 15th to the 19th weeks,
both inclusive, the total sixpenny admissions of the
five Saturdays being 60,261 ; the total numbers
(at 6d., at is., and by season ticket) present on
those Saturdays being 8.1,038.
The greatest number of persons in the building
during ono day was on Tuesday last, being the
last day of shilling admissions, when the numbers
present were 28,984, of whom 27,049 paid Is. each,
the other 1,935 being admitted by season ticket.
The greatest number of per,ons in the building
during a half-crown day was on Saturday, the la,t
dly of the Exhibition (17,988). The last week is
the only one of the 24 during which the Exhibith n
has been open, in which the number of persons
admitted has exceeded 100,000.

The average weekly numbers for the 23 weeks
appear to be, 10,894 by tickets, 46,971 by cash ;
total weekly average of visitors, 57,866.
The average daily number of visitors for the 22
weeks (131 days, toe building being closed on the
day of humiliation), appears to be 1,829 daily by
tichets, 7,888 by cash ; total, nearly 9,718 daily.
The building has been open, say 24 weeks, or to
speak more exaetly, 142 days. It has theretorl
bean open just a day more than the Great Exnibi-
tion of 1851.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

TATTERSALL'S, MONDAY.
The Cesarewitsch accounts were wound up this after-
noon ; it the absence of complaints be any crittrion
the settling was mot fatiQfactory ; backers of horses
wero "let 03t" of their liabilities by the dead heat. Had
Prioress won the first time, however, the Ring would
have thrown in for an immense stake, but the dead heat
compelled them to hedge to their bets about El Hakim
and Queen Bess; Mr. Ten Broeck, as usual, backed h i
mare, but he coupled her in very few double event bets,
having taken Pryor for the Cesarewitsch, and Prioress
or Babylon for the Cambridgeshire ; Pryor, however,
suldenly went amiss, and was, perhaps, fortunately for
the owner, unable to fulfil his engagement last week. No
very large winners are reported, although several lucky
persons are mentioned who took 1,000 to 10 about
Prioress on the first publication of the weights, but who
were in consequence of the mare's wretched running at
Cheater unable to "get out",of their money.
So briskly was the setAing conducted that little time
was afforded for the resumption of betting on the Cam-
bridgeshire; 9 to 1 to 100/. was booked about El Hakim,
and both McestisQima and Cyrene closed at an improve-
ment on their last-quoted prices. Mademoieelle de
Cba,itilly, who had figured at all sorts of odds at New-
market, was again in good demand at 25 to 1. The

THE MONETARY CRISIS.

According to the generally correct authority of
the trade report of • the Freeman's Journal, corn •
mercial matters hero are on a perfectly firm and-
soled basis, and, except the severity of the high
rate of interest, there is no pressure Of any kind.
There is not any urgency for discount;, and the
banks appear to be acting very liberally towards
their customers.. Two bankruptcies appear in the
last Dublin Gazette; ono a country one, reported to
ho rather heavy, and the other a Dublin one, of
miser consequence. As a whole, the traders never
passed through what has been a trying year with
surer credit and less disaster. High prices, •high
interest, diminished consumption, and general dul-
nes4 hive now ruled for many months.
The following is extracted from the trade report
of the Freeman's Journal of this morning :
"No further light has been thrown upon the
Belfast tea frauds; and it appears likely that the
principal party has for the present escaped appre-
hension ; and although some of the ' helps' have
been laid hold of, none of the respectable accom-
plices, by whose aid and connivance 70,0001 b.
weight of tea had been stolen, have been brought
to justice. Without knowing much of the circum-
stances, it seems to us that there was a good deal of
remissness with theOustoms' authorities. It appears
the fraud was discovered on Thursday, nearly 24
hours before Moore left Belfast, and he was not
even put under surveillance ; and we have heard it
stated—we know not how truly—that it is a
Fisitive fact that the Board in London were not
made acquainted with the circiunstance until
Monday, four days after its discovery in Belfast. It
is within our knowle Igo that on Saturday, our own
collector, Mr. Gardner, was not even made ac-
quainted with the occurrence, although one of the
first persons who should have heard of it, possessing,
as is known, the confidence of the Board in Lon-
don, and actually selected by them to conduct the
inquiry. A reward of 2001. has been offered by
Government for the apprehension of the delin-
quent."

MR. HOWARD, 'burgeon-Dentist, 52, Fleet-
street. has introduced an entirely new description of ARV-
t ACIAL TEETll,flxed without springs. wires, or ligatures. They so
terfectly resemble the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from
the original by the closest observer; they will never change colour or
decay, and will be found very superior to any teeth ever before used.
This method does not require the extraction of roots, or any painful
operation, and will support and preserve teeth that are loose, and Is
earanteed to restore articulation and mastication ; and that Mr.
Doward's improvement may be within the reach of the meet econo-

PRUSSIA.

A letter from Berlin of the 16th says :—" The
King left his bed to-day. Opinions differ greatly
as to his re-establishment ; some are of opinion that
he will soon be well enough to occupy himself with
governmental affairs ; others that he will not for
some time be capable of transacting any business.
A circumstance which tends to prove that the lat-
ter opinion is the more correct one is, that two cele-
brated physicians, Professor Frerichs of Breslaw,
and Dr. DaTneron, director of the Lunatic Asylum
of the same town, have been summoned to Berlin.
Count Adlerberg and Prince Gagarin have arrived
here to express—the former in the nameof the Czar,
the second in that of the Empress of Russia—their
solicitude in the condition of the King. Baron de
Coller, Austrian ambassador, has been charged with
a similar mission by his sovereign." A letter in
the French Journal de Francfort also says :-
44 Whatever may be the state of the King's health,
be certain that it is not so far re-established as to
give strong hopes of eventual recovery. The pro-
gress of the malady causes it to be foTeseen that for
a long time the King cannot attend to public af-
fairs. Nothing, then, is more natural than the
idea of a provisional government to be confided to the
august brother of the king, the heir presumptive of
the throne—an idea which has gained favour not
only in governmental regions, but amongst the
people, especially as in that way the transition of
the succession to the throne would be inaugurated
in the king's lifetime, and the eventual combinatimf
talked of—the abdication of the Prince of Prussia
and the immediate succession of his son—would be
avoided, by the accession of a regency which would
give the former the reins of government and would
open to Prince Frederick William the expectation
of a throne underilhe auspices of his father. There
is, however, no one in Prussia who would not
prefer the re-establishment of the king's health to
such an expedient, for there is hardly another people
in Europe who are so devoted to their sovereign,
and so much in favour of legitimist traditions as
the Prussians."

mind that." That was all that passed. Ayres said, how-
ever, that she wanted two shillings to take a furnished
room, to prevent her knocking about, and the half
crown she should get from Mr. Potter would just do.
They then asked me to go up on Mr. Potter's behalf,
and I said, no ; if I could not go for Mr. Barber, I
would not go against him.

Total Customs £14,500,000

In the Excise we should give up carriages,
(stage and hackney), game certificates, hops,
paper, and railways. From malt, which, at 4r.
per bushel last year produced 6,676,349/., we
anticipate at half the rate, or 2s. per bushel,
4,000,000/. ; from spirits, which produced
7,877,829/., we should, with a reduction of a
quarter, which would defeat the illicit distiller,
count on obtaining more than six millions ; and
from licences, which produced 1,399,6731. at a
half of the rates, expect to receive 800,0001.
Here, then, is Excise—.

Malt £4,000,000
Spirits
Licences

Total £10,800,000

In the Stamps we should only retain Bills of
Exchange, which last year produced 444,5991.,
bankers' notes 6,1521. ; and composition therefor,
57,7221. We are below the mark in €--stimating
these at half a million. Deeds last produced
1,218,7371. At half the present rates we may
safely calculate on 620,0001. Newspapers, that
is to say the facility of transmissions through the
Post-office, may be taken at 200,0001., a trifle ,
