Isaac Williams, who was a few days ago brought
up in the custody of Trew, upon suspicion of
having in his possession stolen goods, was discharged
from custody, the officer having stated that he had as-
certained that the articles had been purchased by the
prisoner.

WORSHIP-STREET.
Richard Gaylor, a middle-aged man of respectable
appearance, described as a cabinetmaker, was brought
up for final examination, charged with having grossly
and indecently conducted himself towards several un-
protected ladies in the neighbourhood of Hackney.
The case was clearly established upon the evidence
of Divett, a constable of the N division, and also of
one of the ladies who had been insulted, and was re-
manded at the instance of the prisoner, to give an
opportunity of producing witnesses, who, as he stated,
would be able to give material evidence in refutation
of the charge. He now called Mr. John Mate, an
upholsterer in Paradise-row, Bethnal-green, and two
other tradesmen, who deposed that they had known
him for many years, and that they had al ways con-
sidered him a highly moral and respectable man, and
wholly incapable of any such conduct as that imputed
to him.

Mr. ARNOLD, however, said that when an offence
was clearly proved, no witnesses to character could
alter the facts, and the effect of their testimony,
however favourable to the prisoner, could only prove
either that the person accused had never before com-
mitted the act, or never been detected as being a person
addicted to such practices. He regarded this kind of
offence as a most serious outrage upon society, the
gravity of which was rather enhanced than otherwise
by the respectability of the man committing it, and as
the charge in the present instance had been com-
pletely established against the prisoner, he had no he-
sitation in ordering him to be committed to the House
of Correction as a rogue and vagabond and kept to
hard labour for three months.
THAMES.

Charles Longman, a mariner, alias Sir Charles
Longman, alias Western, alias Jackson, was brought
before Mr. Yardley on remand, charged with fraud.
The prisoner is a stout, sun-burnt fellow, about
about twenty-five years of age, with a jaunty air,
and has been in the practice of' victimising outfitters,
tavern-keepers, and other, on various occasions for the
last fire years. He was once convicted at the Li-
verpool assizes for defrauding tradesmen there under
pretence that he had just been discharged from a ship
after a long voyage, and was sentenced to twelve
months' imprisonment and hard labour. On his re-
lease from prison he paid another visit to
Liverpool, obtained slops and money sufficient
to carry him to London, failed to discharge his reckon-
ing at several public-houses which he visited, and then
started for this port, where he levied extensive contri-
butions on a variety of persons, and had what he
termed a " jolly spree" with the money he had raised
on the goods supplied to him, until he was arrested,
committed from this court, and sentenced to four
months' imprisonment. Directly after the expiration
of his sentence he forged several documents, repre-
senting that he was cast away in the Juno, wrecked
off Cape Horn, and had in his possession an order for
wages upon Mr. Duncan Dunbar, the shipowner, at
whose offices he called several times, leaving persons
be had swindled outside until his return, when he
made some excuse, and said he could not receive his
money because the cashier was out of the way. After
carrying on an extensive system of swindling, seduc-
ing a young woman to whom he represented he was
the second-mate of the wrecked ship Juno, and to
whom he promised marriage, and carousing with the
loose women and others in the neighbourhood of Rat-
cliffe-highway, he was taken into custody by an
officer named Fraser, of the Thames police. The
prisoner, however, had managed • things so adroitly
that the magistrate, Mr. Yardley, could only sum-
marily convict him as a rogue and vagabond, and he
was sentenced to three months' imprisonment and
hard labour. The prisoner's sentence expired on the
20th of last month, and he recommenced operations
as a swindler on the same day. The office was
crowded with his dupes.
Mr. Jobn Minton, in the employ of Mr. Grum-
bridge, outfitter, of St. George-street, alias Ratcliff-
highway, said, the prisoner was introduced to him on
the 20th of September by Mr. Nelson, a boarding-
house-keeper, and he said he had just come home in
the Mary, of Sunderland, from Valparaiso, and that
he had been cast away in the Juno, of Sunderland,
that he had 381. to receive, and wanted a variety of
clothes. He was provided with a suit of clothes,
overcoat, silk handkerchiefs, and other goods to the
amount of 11/. He came again the next day, and in-
creased the amount to 201., obtaining, among other
things, a cap with a gold-laced band, a watch and
seals, and a gold guard.
Mr. Charles Nelson, of No. 1, Ratcliff-street, said
the prisoner presented himself to him on the 20th of
September, gave him a hearty shake of the hand, and
after claiming him as an old acquaintance, said he
wanted board and lodging, and asked him if he had
received his letter. Witness said he had not, and the
prisoner expressed his surprise, and said he had given
one to the captain of his ship to post when he went
on shore at Gravesend. A few minutes afterwards
the postman brought a letter directed to the witness,
and dated Gravesend, September 18. It was to the
following effect :

" Gravesend, Sept. 18.
" Dear Friend,—l write to inform you that I have
arrived at this port this morning, halter a very unforti-
net voyage, since I made application to you for a board-
ing-house 18 months since, but you would not accommo-
date me then. lam the young matt that went as se-
cond mate of the ship Juno, but prevus to that she had
been destroyed by fire on the 28th of May last. I hope
you can furnish me on my arrival ; if you can, plese to
look fur the brig Mary, of Sunderland; she is from the
Cuichero Islands, with guano. I expect to dock in the
London Dock, at the Shadwell entrance; likewise to
send toe a shift of close, for we have lost al. I hope if
you have any time, you will look out for me.

" I am yours,
" CHARLES LONOHA.II.7

Mr. Nelson said he was completely ;thrown off his
guard by the production of the letter and the repre-
sentations of the prisoner, and he provided him with
board, lodging, and money, and also introduced him
to Mr. Minton. The prisoner only remained two
days with him, when he absconded.
The witness then identified two other documents,
one a letter directed to " Charles Longman, second
mate of the late ship Juno, at the Phosnix, near the
Katharine Dock, London" which purported to be
written and signed by William Jones, master of the
ship Juno, and gave directions to the prisoner to
apply at the Register-office for a ticket, and also
stated that if the prisoner was in want of money he
was to apply to him (M.r. Jones), at 2, Weymou th-
terrace, Hoxton. The letter also contained some re-
ference to an order in the same handwriting, which
was to the following effect :
" 33/. 14s. 7d. British Consulate-office. Valparaiso.
To Joshua Prows, Esq. Sir, three days after sight
pease to pay to my order the sum of 381. 14s. 7d., being
balance of wages due t.-) Charles Longman for services
as second mate of the [ship Juno. To Joshua Prows,
Esq., No. 1, James-street, Adolphi, or 116, Mersey-
btrest, Liverpool.
" By command of your obedient servant,
" WILLIAM JONES."
Mr. Nelson, in answer to a question by Mr.
Yardley, said the prisoner had managed things so
adroitly that he had left the fictitious order at the
Registry-office for Seamen, where the witness ob-
tained it. He thought it had been left there by Cap-
tain Jones.

Fraser, 73, of the Thames division, said the prisoner
was in prison at the very time he represented he was
on board the Juno, and that on the 22d of Septem-
ber, two days after he last came out of prison and ob-
tained the goods of Mr. Grumbridge, he started fur
Chatham, where he put up as Si: Charles Longman,
a naval officer, and obtained several meals, borrowed
16s. in money, and occupied the best room in the
house for two days. On the prisoner's return from
Chatham he took him into custody. There were many
persons in attendance whom the prisoner had swindled
at various times and places.
Mr. Solomons, outfitter and navy agent, residing
at Chatham, said the prisoner called upon him last
February with a wages ticket, and said he was die-
charged from her Majesty's steamer the Thunderbolt,
and that he was going to sail next day in one of Mr.
Green's ships from London. He advanced 61. 3s.
upon the ticket, which was sent to the Admiralty for
payment, and returned marked " A deserter " upon
it ; consequently the wages were not paid. He saw
no more of the prisoner until the evening of the 22d
of last month, when he called upon him and said that
he had been robbed of all his money the preceding
night, and wanted to sell his watch-guard, cap, over-
coat, and all his clothes, and to receive' a blue shirt,
and blue pair of trousers of coarse quality in part
payment. The prisoner said his name was Jackson.
While looking at the coat to ascertain its value the
prisoner said, " It's a better one than you sold me for
21. 155." In consequence of this remark he was in,
duced to refer to his books, and found, under the
head " Thunderbolt," that he had given credit to a
seaman named Weston for a coat charged 21. 155.,
and other articles, and it was then brought to his re-
collection that the prisoner was the same man who
had defrauded him in February last. He therefore
detained the property offered for sale, and the prisoner
applied to Captain Bakers a magistrate, for a warrant,
who refused to interfere.

The prisoner said he never was in the Jew's house
until the 22d of September. The books of the House
of Correction would show he was incarcerated there
during the month of February.
Mr. Solomons was sure the prisoner was the man
who came to him in February, and obtained 6/. 3s. of
him by false pretences.

The prisoner—l never was in his house until the
22d of September. Ile then handed a letter to the
magistrate containing some papers which were for-
warded to him by Captain Brooks, of the royal navy,
since he had been in custody.
Mr. YARDLEY said, the documents only proved that
the prisoner was Charles Logout; while the evim

RAIL IL COACH.-0° Tuesday last a tradesman of
Ross went thence to London and back for 10s.! Of this
sum, Gs. was expended in the fare from Gloucester to London
and back, by an excursion train, and the remaining 4s. coach
fare from Gloucester to Ross. 214 miles by railway for 68.,
and only 16 miles by coach for 4s. ! Had our friend not
walked to Gloucester on Tuesday morning, it would have
cost him 2s. more to ride from Ross to Gloucester and back,
besides fees to the coachman, than it did to go to London and
return ! Gloucester Journal.

To RENDER BRICK OR STONE IMPERVIOUS TO WET.
—Some time ago Mr. Sylvester described a process at the
Institute of Architects adopted by him to render brickwork
or stone impervious to wet. The porous brick or stone wall
is to be washed with a hot solution of three quarters of a
pound of mottled soap in a gallon of water, laid evenly with
a large brush. This wash, after twenty-four hours, is to be
followed by a second composed of half a pound of alum, tho-
roughly dinolyed ii 3 f9ur slim 0 vrater..--Builder.

GALWAY HARBOUR COMMIS

SIONERS.
The Board met by special summons on Mondsl
last, A. O'Flaharty, Esq., M.P., in the chair. The
Rev. Mr. Daly referred to the vote of thanks passed
at the last meeting of that Board to the Government;
for the advantages conferred by them on Galway, and
he wished them to repeat that no town in Ireland
gained more advantage through the Government than
Galway. The Government had done a great deal for
Galway, and was likely to do much more. 11°
begged to read the following letter from the Mid.
land Great Western Railway Company :
" Midland Great Western Railway of Ireland, and
Royal Canal Company, Offices, Broadstone SW
tion, Dublin, Sept. 26, 1850.
" Rev. Sir,—l have the pleasure to state that your
favour of the 9th instant, and resolutions of the Gel'
way Town Commissioners, and Galway Packet Station
Committee have been submitted to our Packet. Station
Committee. In reference thereto, lam to 'inform
you that the company's engineer has inatrun•
tions to ascertain the best mode of electric tele'
graph, with the view of laying it down on the
line, in order to make the communication with Galway
as complete as possible. Also, that he is to furnish
an estimate of the cost of continuing the railway to
Galway to the Galway Docks, and that the corn'
mittee have instructed me to inform the Lords of Os
Admiralty of the company's intention of laying down
the telegraph : and they hope when this intention
beeomes more generally known, that it may lead to
the extension of the telegraph across the Irish Channel.
I send for your information two pamphlets relative to
the subject.—l am, Rev. Sir, yours truly,
" H. BEAUSIRE, Secretary.
"Rev. P. Daly."
He also received an important pamphlet, printed
order of the Government of Maine, which proved tbst
the communication by Galway by Cape Canso to
London is shorter than through any other Wee
ports. It proved that Galway was the only termini"!
for steam between America and England that colds
be carried on with most benefit. The pamphlet pointed
out the necessity of completing a railway on the
American side to Cape Canso, and he knew from late
communications that the survey for the purpose was
going on. From Cape Canso to Galway, the eaten's'
tion was that the voyage could be made in five dale'

THE COUNTRY MARKETS.

manifest here to-day, end although the supply of wilest

price, whilst second and ordinary samples were is to 23

Messrs. Taylor and Bright's Circular states: —l2lle
corn trade bas been exceedingly inanimate in Orel
brauch during the past week, and all articles have dei
dined more or less in value, with a much less dernallq,
than of late. To-day's market was tolerably
attended by farmers, and the show of samples but sotll
of new wheat—condition moderate, but to effect sales,'
decline of is per quarter was generally submitted toi
the market could not, however, be reported any less th 6“
this, indeed there was more tone at the close 'heart
,opening. But little doing in foreign: importers pr" 6
the granary to such concession as would alone lead t 0
business of moment. Of strong red wheat our stock, li
very small. The barley market is weaker, and rot
,0h
very moderate stocks; buyers can come in at 63 to hd
less money than a fortnight back. Oats dull sale, Os
beans are a good is lower. Some inquiry for peas, II!,
we are without stocks. The linseed market is well sor;
ported, but cakes are a shade easier. No transactioo
worth noting in rapeseed; and rape cakes are very scarce'
