Notwithstanding that the supply of Beasts in to-day's
Market was very moderate, the time of year considered,
the Beef-trade, owing to the mildness of the weather,
and the large supplies of Meat on offer in Newgate and
Leadenhall, ruled excessively heavy, at, in somein-
stances, a further decline in the quotations of 2d per
81bs. The fresh arrivals were confined to 180 Scots
from Scotland. Tile numbers of Sheep were small, yet
the demand for all breads was dull in the extreme, and
prtets bad a downward tendency—the highest general
figure fsr Downs in the wool not exceeding 4s 2d per
Bibs. Lambs—the supply of which was tolerably good
—moved off heavily, and Monday's currencies were not
supported. In Calves, next to nothing doing, en some-
what easier terms. The Pork trade was very dull.
Well Covey were offering at from 14/. to 181. each, in-
cluding their small Cal'.

good, the mild weather and Easter holidays assisting
consumption ; portions of two cargoes oranges from St.
Michael, sold by Keeling and Hunt at :public sale, sus-
tained the advance in price obtained last week. Lemons
in demand. Nuts have an improved sale, and the steady
character of the trade generally in London, as well as
slt the outports, affords a proof that the labouring classes
are in a better position for purchasing these luxuries.

GUILDHALL—(THIS DAY.)
RO/lIIIING 1 DETECTIVE OFFICER.—Jathes Sympson
Was brought up before Mr. Alderman Challis, on a
charge of stealing a watch and other articles, the pro-
perty of Webb, one of the detective force. It appeared
that the prisoner had long been a suspected character,
being in the habit of picking up strange articles at
hotels where he lodged for a night for that purpose, and
that Webb had been set on his track to watch
him. Last night the prisoner took up his quarters at
Brett's Hotel, in Holborn, where also Webb followed him.
The prisoner went to bed there about twelve o'clock,
and by arrangement Webb occupied the next room.
After he had been in bed a short time he heard
his room door open, and saw the prisoner enter
with a lighted candle in his hand. He approached
the chair where Webb's clothes were placed, and after
"searching the pockets took from them a pocket-book, and
then retired, taking also a watch which was lying on the
dressing-table. Webb then got up and followed the
prisoner. The book and the watch were both found
in his possession. The prisoner was identified as an old
offender, having been transported for ten years fur
housebreaking.
The officer Webb said that if he had time, he could
prove several cases of a similar character against the
prisoner.
Remanded till Friday next.

BOW-STREET.—(THIS DAY.)
A rough, well-fed looking fellow, dressed as a sailor,
was charged with begging.
A Meudicity officer stated that, between nine and ten
o'clock last night, he observed the prisoner at the Turn-
stile, in Lincoln's Inn-fields, begging and crying. He
received alms from several passers-by, and a sixpence
from a gentleman. told this gentleman that he had
walked thirty miles, and had not had a morsel of food
that day, adding that he had come up from the country
to see a lieuteaant on Tower-hill, who had promised to
get him a ship. He then went into Holborn. whore ,he
obtained some more pence, and afterwards adjourned to
a couple of public-houses to partake f some rum and
gin. The officer now thought it high time to take him
into custody, and on reaching the station a large quan-
tity of bread and meat was found upon him.
The prisoner denied that he had received sixpence
from any gentleman, or begged of any one.
Mr. JARDINE thought the begging system had been
sufficiently exposed to be well understood by the public,
but unfortunately it was still encouraged by benevolent
persons giving money to impostors like this. He should
seed the prisoner to the House of Correction for a month,
where the fellow would get neither rum nor gin, but be
upon wholesome bread and water.
the prisoner was accordingly committed for a month.
A portly-looking middle-aged individual, with a jolly
enlivened countenance, whose name did not transpire,
Was Charged with being drunk and disorderly in Covent-
garden Market.
police-constable stated that he was on duty this
• morning, about two o'clock, in Great Russell-street,
when he heard a noise in Covent-garden, and on hasten-
ing thither he found the prisoner with his hands to his
mouth waking up the echoes of all the neighbouring
streets, and shouting " Tally ho I tally ho I" with all
his might. He told the prisoner that he could not be
allowed to exercise his lungs in that manner at so un-
seasonable an hour, and the prisoner said in reply,
" Never mind, my hearty, I am just going into the Bed-
ford." He told him to go at once, and returned to his
beat; but he had scarcely got there before the cry of
" Tally ho! tally ho, ho ho 1" came travelling along the
breeza; and hastening again to the market, he discovered
the prisoner still roaring and shouting with the voice of
a stentor, and he therefore took him to the station. Ile
Was quite drunk.
Mr. Inspector Black stated that the prisoner was well
known at the Bedford Hotel, where he was in the habit
of staying when he came to town, and was a highly re-
spectable man, living in the country.
Mr. JARDINE said that made his conduct the more
disgraceful. It was perhaps excuseable for persons who
had no homes to go to to amuse themselves in the streets
by shouting and bellowing, but for a man in the priso-
ner's station of life to do so was really too bad. He
must pay a fine of 40s. or be imprisoned ten days.
Thu tine was immediately paid.

WESTMINSTER. —(THIS DAY.)
Jblin, [lodges, a dissipated-looking young man, who
described himself as following the somewhat incongruous
occupations of a pencil maker and a commercial tra-
veller, was charged this morning, before Mr. Burrell,
with assaulting Mr. Edwin Gill, and robbing him of a
silver watch and chain.
Frnm the statement of the complainant, who raid be
*Eta a servant of her Majesty at Buckingham Palace, it
appeared that he had goee to the acenix public-house
in Westminster last night, to smoke his pipe, where he
met the prisoner, and after drinking in his company t:11
after One o'clock in the morning, the prisoner insisted on
seeing him home, though the complainant expressed
himself well able to go home alone. Complainant was
130 Qt Sober, and on the way home he hall a fall on his face.
chieregaining his legs the prisoner lent him a handker-
ft.t° wiPe the blood from his mouth, after using
whtea the
complainant became quite insensible., in
which state he remained until five o'clock this morning,
when he found hitweft in his own Louse, bat his watch
and chain were missing.
Police-constable Green, 91 A division, deposed that
