The BOARD of SUPERINTENDENCE of the " HALL
of -COMMERCE" take leave to draw your attention to this
Institution.
It has been built and established at a very great cost, by a
ingle individual, for the convenience of the Commercial Com-
munity 6f the City of London, with a degree of public spirit
worthy the metropolis of the world.
The subscription is now placed on so moderate a scale as to
he no object of consideration, in proportion to the conveniences
offered, which are set forth in the above Prospectus ; and the
Board are of opinion, that without interfering with any of the
existing establishments appropriated to specific branches of
,rade, these conveniences may be found available by a very large
body of persons in the City of London—by parties visiting
London occasionally on mercantile affairs—and by gentlemen
from the Continent and other foreign ports.

they.have entered into an arrang,stnent with the Directors of the
South Eastern Company, subject to the approbation of their Pro-
prietots, by which that Compa•iy will engage at any time within
five years from its opening to take a lease of the Hastings line

4 per cent. per annum or, the- cost of its etna struction to the ex-
tent of the estimate, wi!,:h a moiety

of the net surplus profits
beyond the rental, thus giving to
taking the opportrnity of working the contemplated line them-
selves fur five years, with the option, should it be deemed more
advantagemus at any time within that period, of requiring the
South F.estern Company to take a lease for 21 years, at a rental
securir g to the Proprietors a certain fair return for their ca-
pital c nth a proportion of the surplus benefits likely to arise
from union management and a consequent reduction of expenses.

C. WATSON, 41 and 42, BARBICAN, and 16, NOR-
TON FOLG ATE, aided by a Orson of science in the amalga-

most beautiful article ever yet offered : poasessing all the rich-
ness of Silver in appearince—with all its durability and hardness
—with its perfect sweetness in use—undergoing, as it does, a
chemical process, by which all that is nauseous in mixedmetals is
entirely extracted—resisting all acids—may be cleaned as Silver,

C. Watson begs the Public will understand that this meta

Cold, than his metal is from all others ; on its intrinsic merit
alone he wishes it to be tested, and from the daily increasing
eulogiums he receives, he is convinced that nothing can pre-
vent its becoming an article of universal wear.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
GUILDHALL.

Yesterday Thomas Payne and George Andrews, two jour-
neymen printers, working at a printing-office in Little Moor-
fields, were charged before Sir James Duke with wantonly
breaking two squares of glass, value four shillings each, in
the warehouse of Mr. Pope, the tea-dealer, on the Pavement,
Moorfields. . .

Mark Bull, a City policeman, stated that complaint was
made to him last week that several windows had recently,
been broken in the evening at the rear of Mr. Pope's pre-
mises and those of a neighbour. He desired them to endea-
vour to find and preserve the stones, and having obtained
one with which a pane of glass was broken on Thursday
night, he called at several houses on the opposite side of the
street, and at the printing-office the stone was recognised by
the master, who said that on Thursday night there were only
the apprentice and two journeymen on the premises. He
asked for the bov, and told him he should take him into cus-
tody. The boy begged him not to do that, and said he would
confess everything. In consequence of the statement made
by the boy, he took the two prisoners into custody.
Arthur Brown, the apprentice, was sworn as a witness, and
stated that he saw the prisoners each fling a stone last week,
and heard the glass break: They did it for fun.
Sir J. Dula: said it was a gross case of misconduct, and he
should fine each of them 21. under the Sewer Act, and in de-
fault of payment commit them to Bridowell for one month.—
They were removed to Bridewell.
George Thomas Adams, a Custom-house agent, residing in
Jamaica-row, Commercial-road, East, was charged with
pawning a gold brooch, hair guard-chain, and some silver lace.
William Brown, clerk to Messrs. Cockburn and Co., mer-
chants, Old Broad-street, stated that the prisoner was em-
ployed as a Custom-house agent to clear some goods from
India, and some trinkets being missed he was questioned
about them, and confessed he had pledged them. He was
given into the custody of Inspector Hodgson, but on account
of his confession Messrs. Cockburn begged to recommend

him to mercy.
Sir J. DUKE adjudged him to forfeit the value of the goods,
and to pay a fine of 21.—The prisoner paid the amount, and
was liberated.

BOW-STREET.
Yesterday 'Mr. 'Peacock, solicitor to the General Post-
office, attended before Mr. Jardine to prosecute one of the
General Post letter-carriers, on a charge of stealing a letter,
containing a sovereign, and l/. Scotch bank-note, ich had
been entrusted to him to deliver in the ordinary course of
his duty.
The prisoner, who was about thirty-five years of age, gave
his name Frost, and his residence No. 26, Goswell-street,
Goswell-road.
The fact was clearly proved, and he was committed.
CLERKENWELL.
Yesterday Daniel Hurry, the driver of the hackney ca-
briolet, 996, was charged on a summons by Master Spencer
George Walsh, the son of the Rev. George Walsh, of Wil-
mington-square, with having grossly assaulted him.
It appeared, from the evidence of Master 'Walsh, that on
Sunday evening week, being desired by his father to pro-
cure him a cab, he went to the stand near Coldbath-fields
prison, and hailed the second vehicle in the rank, its cleanly
appearance having engaged his preference ; but the defend-
ant, who was the driver of the cab standing first in the rank,
insisted that the complainant should have his vehicle, and
after assailing him with abusive language, struck him a vio-
lent blow, and then knocked off his hat in the mud.
Mr. COMBE sentenced him to pay a fine of ss. for the as-
sault, together with 4s. costs.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
Yesterday Jaxa Dembriehl, assiuning to be Count Dem-
bricki, and his wife, and a Mr. Louis Sosiwwshi, were charged
with having cmnutted an annoyance by ringing at the bell
of the house of Lady Coutts Trotter, in iirosvenor-square.
who call themselves Polish refugees, but who are disowned
by the Association, have
who were extremely well dressed, and
been long known as persosi
and gentry gentry with beg, petitions,
trudingduelf::ll at
containing fabricated. claims to compassion. ihe eldest de-
fendant Dembricki, is reported to have no claim whatever
to the title of Count.
William Best, butler to Lady Trotter, said some time ago
he had, at the request of her Ladyship, come to this Court,
and made known the fact of the two defendants, man and
wife, having sent ma petition for money to her Ladyship, the
statements in which petition there was good reason to be-
lieve were fabricated. Since that period the defendants had
taken every means in their power of annoying him. Yester-
day morning they had rung the bell, when he went to the
door, they asked to see Lady Trotter, or Sir Dudley Coutts
Lindsay. Witness told them he knew they were impostors,
and then Sosnowski began swearing at him, upon which he
shut the door. On relating what had occurred, he was ad-
vised to pursue them and give them into custody. He went
out for that purpose, but on being seen by Sosnowski, that
person threatened him with his umbrella if he atten9ted to
o
follow them. Witness, however, did follow, and, in Hy
Park, meeting with a policeman, he gave them into custody.
Complainant believed that the parties rang the bell that
morning to annoy him, because of the part he had taken in
exposing their impositions.
Mr. :MALTBY, after some consideration, said the case was
one which he could not deal with. lie must, therefore, order
the parties to be discharged,
MARYLEBONE.•
Yesterday William Harswood was placed at the bar, before
Mr. Rawliuson, for final examination, upon the charge of
having attempted to murder his son Arthur. aged 16, by
striking bins on the head with a fire-shovel.
The appearance of the poor lad excited the commissera-
tion and sympathy of all present ; his head was bound
round with a handkerchief, which concealed from view nu-
merous wounds, and upon his face were several contusions ;
his eyes and nose were also much disfigured, and lie was so
extremely weak as to be scarcely able to stand. The worthy
Magistrate therefore ordered for him a chair, in which he
sat close to the Bench.
The evidence now given, coupled with that before ad-
duced, went to show that on Sunday, the 14th instant, some
words took place between the prisoner and his son Arthur ;
and that in the afternoon of the same day one took up the
poker and the other the tongs, but no injury was inflicted,
either by father or son, with the implements named. In the
evening, Arthur, who had been out for a few hours, returned
home, and, sitting on a stool, fell asleep, with his head
resting upon a chair, when the prisoner, while he (Arthur)
was thus lying, caught up the tire-shovel, and struck him
with it repeatedly on the head, with such force, that the
shovel was much bent by the blows. A scuffle had pre-
viously occurred, in the course of which Arthur struck the
prisoner, who said he would have redress for it. The police
were called in, and on their arrival they found Arthur in a
state of insensibility, and completely smothered in blood.
All that could be gathered from what fell from him prior to
his being taken to the hospital, were the words, "Father
- asleep."
The prisoner stands committed for trial, but will be brought
up again this day, when the whole of the depositions will be
read over.
Ellen Turner. a very well-dressed young woman, was
placed at the bar charged with having stolen property of
different descriptions to a considerable amount, belonging to
leer mistress, -Mrs. Harriet Bennet, 23, Portman-place, Edg-
ware-road.
It appeared from the evidence of Mrs. Bennett that the
prisoner had been in her service about three months, and
that having missed a cloak, she questioned her respecting it,
when she at first denied all knowledge as to where it was,
but subsequently said that she had lent it. Her box was
searched, and in it were found a pair of gold ear-rings, thir-
teen handkerchiefs, and other articles, all of which Mrs.
Bennett identified as her own.
The prisoner was remanded.till Tuesday next.
A young man, named Witham Green, was placed at the
bar before Mr. Rawlinson, for re-eamination, charged on
suspicion of having been concerned 11 plundering the shop of
Mr. William Evans, a boot !Ind shoe-maker, in an extensive
,I,,insss. at '25, Pa m ddirton-street, near this court.
'lice prisoner wa3 coini!nittl on a. clitzrge of stealing a pair
of lady's boots, but he will be again brought up, when it is
expecled the robbery of a large amount of property will be
traced to him.

Complete Suffragists. All that is wanted to insure the
speedy triumph of the cause is, that it be kept constantly
and prominently before the public. The hint, we arc
sure, will not be lost on those for whom it is intended.
A word to the wise is enough. There is no danger of
our being misunderstood. From Mr. Thomas Den-
eombe, Mr. Sharman Crawford, and several other Mem-
bers of the Commons, we expect—an expectation which
is shared by the public—great things in the way of
keeping the question of Complete Suffrage continually
before the House. We know the subject is unpleasant
to the great majority of our legislators; but we are not
to be deterred from our purpose by that consideration.
They must be made to hear many unpleasant truths—
they must be made to listen t.. many discussions wh;ch
may grate in their ear.,. It is hgli time they were
taught the lesson, that it was nut to please theniselves„
but to attend to the complaints, and redress the griev-
ances of the people, that they were sent to St. Stephen's.

MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS.

FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY.
CITY, TUESDAY EVENING.
TIMES.—The Greenwich Railway meeting, as was ex-
pected, proved a very stormy atiair, although the topics dis-
cussed were the same as have been frequently brought before
the public. It appears, by some oversight at the last meet-
ing,lhe contract with the Brighton Company for reduced
tollage was not confirmed by the general body of share-
holders, and hence to-day arose a debate as to the expedi-
ency of doing so, which occasioned a contrary feeling among
certain parties, who desire to see the maximum rate enforced.
The majority of the meeting took a different view, which
ended in the confirmation of this agreement, and the passing
Of a resolution expressing willingness on the part of the Com-
pany to submit to a similar reduction in the case of the South-
Eastern and Croydon lines, provided it was uuderstood that
these Companies would do all in their power to facilitate
and conduct traffic to the London-bridge station. So ha-
portant is this point considered, that the Greenwich Com-
pany have determined only to- afford assistance to the Croy-
don Company in the coming contest for the Epsom branch,
on the condition of a spirit of co-operation to work out this
desirable end. No dividend was declared, in consequence of
the deficiency of profit to pay one, which default introduced
the question of the right of the preference shareholders to
receive their five per cent. in a form likely to give some
employment to the lawyers. It is contended on the one
side that the preference shareholders have only a lien on
the profits of the Company, and not as a mortgage debt.
a lien on the capital ; and hence it is argued that they
can only be paid out of the • profits, and not, as some
of the shareholders insinuated, out of capital, as seemed
by the appearance of the accounts. It was admitted
that on this view of the case the question might subse-
quently arise whether, if the profits of the one half-year
failed to satisfy these claims; the deficiency would not be an
accumulating debt against future profits. On the other side
it was stated that theAireference shareholders are paid out of
the profits after deducting the usual expenses • but, as it ap-
peared the wish of the shareholders to have die point settled
at once by reference to the highest legal authorities, the
Directors did not oppose the motion, with the view of being
corrected or set right with the public, and for future guidance
in making up the accounts of the Company, and determining
the actual position of the preference shareholders a cons-
mitte of legal gentlemen were appointed to draw out a case
to be submitted to the Attorney-General and Solicitor-
General, two representing preference shareholders, and two
original shareholders, so that the interests of both classes of
pro_prietors may be fairly set forth.
SUN.—The funds closed much the same as in the morning
Consols being 974 to 4 both for Money and time. India
Stock touched 2774, and all the other securities remained the
same as in the morning.
The Spanish Active Bonds were a little better than at ten

Ayres there was a further advance to 334 to 4. Portuguese

CAPTAIN PECHELL, R.N., M.P., ON
THE CORN-LAWS.
(Abridged from the Brighton Guardian.)
On Saturday last Captain Pechell had his annual audit and
rent dinner at the Horse and Groom Inn, Patching Pond.
After the cloth had been removed, and the usual loyal toasts
were disposed of,
Captain Pechell rose and said—lt now falls to my duty,
presiding over this company, to propose to you what I con-
sider to be the toast of the evening, which is " The health of
the tenants and friends of mine who have done me the ho
nour to be present on this occasion." Upon these occasions
it has always been my custom either to congratulate you or
to condole with you upon the result of your several under-
takings. Last year we had a thanksgiving for a bountiful
harvest ; and this year it has been represented, and by per-
sons who really ought to know better, that the farmers
would be well rewarded for their exertions by the abundance
and excellence of their crops. Now, residing among you, as
I do, I have made it my business to inquire, and I cannot
congratulate you upon the result of your labours last year.
—(" Certainly not.") You are told that your distress, which
means, that you have not remunerating prices, is owing to
certain causes ; and the first person who figures as having
stated the causes of your not having remunerating prices is
the Prime Minister himself. I was present when he told the
Members of the House of Commons that he acknowledged
there was great distress in the agricultural districts, that that
distress was in part owing to his law and in part owing to
the abundance of the harvest.—(oll.) So putting these two
things together, we see that the law of Sir Robert Peel, with
the abundance of the harvest, have brought about the ruin of
the farmer.—(Hear.) There are other parties who have as-
cribed the distress to the present law and to the rents—par-
ties whom I call the intelligent portion of the community.
They state that with high rents and low prices they find their
capital dwindling away. These opinions have been stated
by very eminent farmers in different parts of the country,
who have declared that with declining prices and without
protection, they and their families will soon be brought to
ruin.—(" That is right, Sir.") Another party has declared
the cause of the distress, fur distress is universally acknow-
ledged—the landlords of the country have declared, and they
are now raising the country from one end to the other, in or-
, der to persuade you, the tenants, that your distress is owing
to the proceedings of the Anti-Corn-law League. They de-
clare that it is to the Anti-Corn-law League that the present
distress in agriculture is attributable. Now it is all very well
to say that the landlord's and the tenant's interest are inse-
parable. We have heard it said lately at all the agricultural
meetings, that we row in the same boat, and that—how very
affectionate—we are to sink or swim together. lint. I say it
is not honest, it is not fair, to say this is a tenant's question,
and that you are to be brought into collision with the
Anti-Corn-law League upon a subject with which, in my
opinion, you have nothing at all to do.—(Hear, hear.) A
law was passed, altering the duties on the importation of
corn, which law was supported by the landlords. You, find
fault with that law, you consider that you are injured by it,
you attribute the falling-off in your receipts and in your pro-
Fits to the operation of that law, and you boldly say that that
law has injured yen. But the landlords tell you it is not
that law Which has injured you; and-they-draw your atten-
tion away entirely from the subject, and ask you to go to a
meeting to battle with the Anti-Corn-law League, when the
question which is to be proposed there has no more to do with
you than it has with the Archbishop of Canterbury, except
so far as lie is a landowner.—(H
ear.) Now, that is my opi-
nion as to one of the causes of the present distress. There
are two antagonist principles. There are some farmers whose
names figure in the public prints as having attributed the
present distress to the new law; the landlords attribute it to
the Anti-Corn-law League. Now, it is very right that. you
should understand what that protection means: They also
call out for protection. It does certainly appear to me that
" protection to the tenant " is, in other words, " protectioii-
to the rent of the landlord."—(Hear.) Though the interest
of the tenant goes in a great degree along with that of the land-
lord, still it is not for you to fight the battle of the landlord
for high prices, to keep up high rents. You have seen that
these high prices, which have been ,promised to you by the
several Acts of Parliament, have not made your foi tunes.
You cannot find a farmer in this country who has retired
from business with a fortune and a provision for his family.
Show me any other trade, a grocer or a miller, in which this
is so. In every ether business, except farming, men have
laid something by for their family. Here we have been since
the close of the war, in 1815, with the landlords always call-
ing out for protection, and still there has been agricultural
distress. All you ask for, or ought to ask for, is steady prices,
that you may know exactly what you are about. At present
no man knows how he stands. Your interests have beer!,
most deeply affected and your landlords call upon you to)?fi
with them in calling for protection and for the
of the Anti-Corn-law League. They say that their-eititte's
are no longer saleable, that property is depreciated, and that
the stability of our institutions is affected by the machina-
tions of the Anti-Corn-law League. Nay, lam not sure that
they have not attributed the blight and the smut and the
grub of Mr. 011iver's wheat to it.—(Loud laughter.) I am
sure I am addressing honest and intelligent men who will see
that the call which has been made upon them for protection
to the tenant clearly mums " protection to the landlord and
high rents for the tenant."—(Cheers.)

A NOVEL CARPET.—Fox-hunting is the sport of
which the King of the Belgians is particularly fond, and in
which he is the most expert. It is said that his Majesty pre-
serves the skins of all the foxes that he kills, and that he is
now having a very handsome carpet adorned with foxes' taiis,
made at the Palace of Lackett.
