LAMBETII-S1 BEE 7.

Several poor people complained to Mr. Nortan that
they had several things pledged at the shop of Mr. Fryett,
the pawnbroker, and although they had taken the tickets,
and tendered the principal and interest, Mr. Fryett re-
fused to restore them their property, under the pretence
that he had not time to look for them, and they must
come again in a month or six weeks. The greatest part
of the property was pledged for a mere trifle, and they
much doubted whether the pawnbroker intended to give
up the property on payment of the money. This they
considered a great hardship.
Mr. NORTON desirt d one of the officers of the Court
to go to the pawnbroker an I tell him that the Magi-
strates disapproved of the manner in which he was con-
ducting his business, and if he did not restore the pro-
perty, if not burnt, on the amount being tendered, they
would find means to make him.

STATE OF TRADE AT MANCHESTER.-There was
rather less buoyancy in the market yesterday ; and
prices of some descriptions of goods were a shade lower
than last week. In reeled yarn, there was no change of
price; but the demand was not quite so active as during
the two or three preceding weeks..
ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, AUG. 19.—This
being the day of the wakes, fewer buyers have attended,
and the business transacted has been more limited than
last week. The Wool Market continues steady and prices
firm.—Manchester Guardian.

THE ROYAL ARSENAL, WOOLWICH.—Some idea
may be formed of the immense resources of this country
in the munitions of war, when it is known that in a time
of peace about 2,000 large pieces of iron ordnance, of
various calibres, are supplied by foundries in Yorkshire
every year for the use of her Majesty's services, and to
replace those in the least degree unfit for the duty re-
quired of them at home and on foreign fortified stations.
Age and exposure to the weather render many of the
large guns unserviceable, but the gr, ater number set
aside are replaced as opportunities offer by new guns,
constructed on improved principles for carrying longer
ranges than had been previously obtained by guns of the
same dimensions of bore. The weight has been also
considerably diminished, and, consequently, they are
more easily worked; and by proportioning the various
parts, and strengthening the breeches by giving them a
greater body of metal, they are rendered more efficient,
and have less recoil. Nine 32-pounders have been se-
lected, and they are at present lying on the wharf of the
Royal Arsenal, to be shipped in the Somerset ordnance-
vessel for Portsmouth. Thirty-five 24-pounders have
been selected for Devonport, and twenty-nine 24-poun-
ders for Chatham, and will be forwarded to these ports
without delay. The East India Company have also
ready for shipment twenty-five 8-inch guns, weighing
about 65 cwt. each, thirty 32-pounders, and twenty-four
24-pounders, all of Monk's pattern, with four 8-inch
mortars, for service in the East Indies.
A JUDGE MISSING.—At the termination of the
Middlesex Sessions on Monday afternoon, Mr. Sergeant
Adams directed the crier to adjourn the Court until ten
o'clock on Tuesday morning, at the Guildhall. West-
minster. The usual proclamation was made, enjoining
the attendance of all persons at the before-mentioned
hour. At ten o'clock Mr. Allen, the county treasurer,
attended the Sessions-house, as well as an inspector of
the S division, a sergeant, and three constables of the
A division, appointed to maintain order in the Court.
The Clerk of the Peace remained for upwards of an hour
looking in vain fur a Judge, and at the expiration of
that time his patience became exhausted, and he quitted
the Court. The police remained until nearly twelve
o'clock, when the doors of the Sessions-house were
closed without any business having been transacted, and
the officers returned to Great Scotland-yard to report
that fact. Some fears were entertained that the Learned
Judge had met with some serious and sudden accident,
but upon inquiry at his residence it was ascertained that
he had left for the country. It is understood that some
difficulties will arise in connexion with the business of
the Session through this singular mistake.
The Duke of Buccleuch arrived at Montagu
House, on Tuesday evening, from Boughton House,
near Kettering. The mortal remains of Lady Anne
Scott were removed to the above seat on Monday, from
Leamington Spa, and were yesterday deposited in a
vault at Kettering Church, the Noble Duke and other
immediate relatives of the deceased lady attending the
funeral. The Duchess and family have arrived at
I)rumlanrig Castle, Dumfries-shire, intending to reside
there some weeks and then go to Dalkeith Palace for
the winter.

BLAIRGOWRIE.—WANTON MISCHIEF.—About ten
days ago a party of young men from Dundee, while
visiting the beautiful grounds and walks of Craighall
Rattray, destroyed several choice flowers, and on being
remonstrated with, they gave the gardener, Mr. M'Laren
(a very civil and obliging man), the most gross abuse.
Not content, they then proceeded through the walks, and
broke several young trees. The result now is, that the
proprietor. Mr. C. Rattray, ha: prohibited access to all
persons not having his written permission. Last week,
