SIIN, LON DON, WEDNESDAY MORNING, JANUARY la, 1345.

to examine the house, to see that the property in it was
safe ; and it having been found by the witness that his
dressing-case had been stolen from his bed-room, he
called up the prisoner and questioned him. He at first
denied all knowledge of the property, but on being
closely pressed, suddenly exclaimed, " There it is 1"
and proceeding straight to tne window, opened it
and produced the dressing-case from the gutter outside.
The case had been broken open and rifled of its con-
tents, consisting, among other articles, of those above-
mentioned. From the position in which the prisoner had
been standing, it was utterly impossible he could have
seen the dressing-case outside the house, and though it
was manifest the robbery had been committed by him,
the facts were not considered sufficiently strong to sup-
port such a charge, and he was allowed to leave the
house unmolested ; but information of other depreda-
tions he had committed in the country was subsequently
received, and this led to his apprehension.
The second charge was preferred by Mr. Henry Bro-
drick, parish clerk of Watford, in Hertfordshire, who
stated that in March last the prisoner, who was then
living as assistant to Mr. Pitcock, a surgeon of that place
hired furnished apartments in his house, and that on a
Sunday evening in the following June witness and his
family went out, leaving no one at home but the pri-
soner; they returned a few hours afterwards, and on
entering the house discovered that it had been robbed,
and that a large quantity of plate and articles of
jewellery had been stolen. The prisoner, on being
called upon to account for the transaction, said that he
had gone into the garden to smoke a cigar, and that the
thieves must have availed themselves of that opportunity'
to enter the house and commit the robbery. The cir-
cumstances were strongly auspicious against the pri-
soner, but, from the high character he was supposed to
possess, witness hesitated to give him in custody, and he
remained in the house some time longer, when he left
considerably in debt, and nothing was either seen or
heard of him afterwards.

Sergeant Brannan said, he had been for some time
past engaged in incessant efforts to trace the prisoner,
but was wholly unsuccessful until Sunday evening last,
when, information having been received by the police
that the keeper of a house of infamous character, in
Storer-street, Commercial-road, of the name of Fletcher,
had been robbed of some pigeons, he suspected from the
name, and his knowledge of the prisoner's former habits,
that the person robbed was the very man ho was in
search of, and went to the house, where he found his
suspicions realised, and took him into custody. From the
prisoner's own admissions it appeared that he had te-
nanted the house in question, which was one of the very
worst character, for more than twelve months; that he
was actually the keeper of it at the time he filled the
respectable situations mentioned in the preceding charges,
and that he had previously to that kept another house
of the same description at Gravesend, from which he
had been ousted by the parish authorities, who had
instituted a prosecution against him. On searching the
house in Storer-street, witness discovered a vast number
of duplicates, several of which related to articles of
jewellery exactly corresponding with those of which
Mr. Brodrick had been robbed, and others for articles
of the same kind, asalso a large amount of property he had
obtained by fraudulent means from a gentleman named
Warne, residing in Hertfordshire. The sergeant added,
that the latter gentleman had been compelled to proceed
on business to bolt, in Norfolk, but would be in attend-
ance at the next examination and give evidence.
Mr. Vann, on behalf of the prisoner, submitted that
though there were certainly very strong grounds of
suspicion against his client, nothing had been elicited in
the course of either of the charges brought forward
which would justify the prisoner's committal.
Mr. BROUGLITON said that he had no hesitation what-
ever in committing him upon the charges ; but, as 1.0
understood that additional ones would be preferred
+against him, he should order him to be brought up again
next week, to give an opportunity for their being gone
into.

The prisoner, who betrayed not the slightest emotion
hroughout the proceedings, was then removed.
SOUTHWARK.

Information was given at the station-house of the L
division, that Christ Church, in the Blackfriars-road,
had been entered on Sunday night, and an iron
chest, containing several articles of communion plate,
opened, and the articles taken away.
From the statement of the sextoness, it appeared that
about half-past eight o'clock the night before, the ser-
vice being concluded, and the congregation gone, she
locked the vestry-room door, and then quitted the church
by the principal entrance, which she else locked after
her, at which time she left everything safe in the interior
of the edifice. On approaching the church the following
morning, at half-past seven o'clock, she perceived that
the door was ajar, and knowing that she had secured it
the previous night, she at once suspected that thieves
had made an entrance. On going into the church her
suspicions were immediately verified, for she discovered
the lid of an iron chest kept on the left of the entrance
to the vestry-reom open, and the door of the latter apart-
ment also wide open, and everything in a state of confu-
sion therein. The thieves appeared to have regaled them-
selves in the vestry with wine and cake, two empty bot-
tles being found on the table. In the room they broke
open some drawers and a small mahogany box belong-
ing to the vestry-clerk, in which was usually deposited
A considerable sum of money, but upon the present oc-
casion there was but a mere trifle. From the iron chest
there was taken four communion plates, one chalice, and
two cups, none of which had been in use for a conside-
rable number of years, and were only plated articles,
but had all the appearance of the genuine metal. Two
scarfs, and some other articles of trifling value, were also
found to have been carried away, together with some
prayer-books, taken from the various pews. Inspector
Evans proceeded to the church, and, from his inspection,
it would seem that the thieves had entered during the
service on the preceding evening, and secreted them-
selves in the belfry, which is well adapted for such a
purpose, until the congregation had withdrawn, and
then commenced their work. Some burnt lecifer-
matches were found strewn about in different direc-
tions in the church and the vestry, and it was ascer-
tained the iron cheat had not been forced. for
the key with which it was opened was always
kept hanging up in the latter room, and was found re-
placed in its former situation. The communion plate,
which has been in use for some years, is of solid silver,
but owing to an act of sacrilege committed in the church
some considerable time ago, the various articles were
uniformly removed thence to a place of more safety ever
since that occurrence ; and the plated ones, deemed of
but little value, were left in the iron chest, from which
they were taken by sacrilegious hands, in the es pecta-
tion, no doubt, that they were composed of silver. There
were no marks of violence having been resorted to by
the thieves perceptible in any part of the building they
had visited, except the mahogany box, the lid of which
was prised open with a "jemmy," or some such instru-
ment, and on quitting the church, after emptying the
wine bottles, they departed, leaving the door open after
them. From the distance of the porch of the church to
the street beyond the iron railings enclosing the grave-
yard, it was impossible for the policeman on the beat t,)
be enabled to discern the condition of the church doors
as he was proceeding on his rounds during the night.
The thieves could not have experienced much difficulty
in surmounting the iron pallisades, which were low in
many parts, and getting clear off. The police are in
active search for them.

Robert Davidson was charged before Mr. Traill:with
stealing a set of bagatelle balls, from the Horse and
Groom public-house, Guildford-street, Southwark.
It appeared that on the preceding afternoon the pri-
sutler and another man (not in custody) went into the
above public-house. They had not been there long be-
fore they commenced playing the game of bagatelle,
soon after which they were descending from the room,
when, the bagatelle balls being missed, they were pur-
sued. The prisoner was taken into custody. The
balls were not found on him, and he assumed to be a
perfect stranger to the man who escaped.—Remanded.
HAMMERSMITH.
A tall, powerful man, resuctably dressed, described
on the police sheet as Angus Gillies, 35 years of age,
who was stated to have been a constable of the A divi-
sion of the Metropolitan Police, and also to have be-
longed to the constabulary of Edinburgh and Glasgow,
was brought up before the sitting magistrate, in the cus-
tody of police-constable Wyness, D 43, who had appre-
hended him in Inverness-shire, in Scotland, on a chargo
of having stolen the sum of 1651. in Bank of England
notes, the property of Mrs. Mary Lewis, of No. 3,
Chapel-side, Bayswater, under peculiar circumstances.
Tho warrant upon which the prisoner was apprehended
was issued at this court by Mr. Poynter, about the com-
mencement of December last. Bits. Mary Lewis, a wo-
man of respectable appearance, about sixty years of age,
stated on that occasion that the prisoner, to whom she
was engaged to be married, came to her on the 25th of
November last, at Bayswater, for the purpose of going
to take a coffee-shop oa Ludgate-hill, for the goodwill
of which they had paid a deposit of 5/. a day or two
previously. She had then just sold out 1701. in the
Three per Cents. at the Bank, which she had in her
possession. When they were about to start, the pri-
soner told her that she had better give him the
money, to which she replied, "Very well, Mr. Gillis*,
as you will have to pay it, 111 teive it to you;" and dye
forthwith gave him fifteen 101. and three 51. Bank of
England notes. They then went together to Ludgate-
hill, to the coffee-shop, and, atter examining the property
they were about to take, they went into a private room
to settle the affair. While there the prisoner all at once
jumped up from his seat, apparently in a great fright,
and said, " My God, I have lost my book, containing the
money." She immediately said, "That is impossible,
for we have been nowhere for you to lose it." The pri-
soner then said," I must have dropped it in your room,"
and asked her for the key of her room, saying he would
go back and see for it. He then went away alone, and
she waited a long while until he came back, when he
soid it was not there, and he must have dropped it on the
road. They then went together to the Bank, and got
the numbers of the notes and stopped them, when they
walked home together. On the following Friday she
again saw him, when the prisoner said he would go to
Brentford to try if he could borrow the mosey, since
which time she had not seen him, and she had reason to
believe that at the time he so obtained the money from
her he intended to steal it.

On the prisoner being plaoed at the bar, Sergeant
Cumming, 1) division, applied to have him remanded for
a fortnight or three weeks, to afford time for getting up
witnesses neoessary to prove the case from Liverpool and
Scotland.
Mr. PAYNTER said, it would not under those circum-
stances be necessary to enter into the case that day, be-
yond reading the original statement of Mrs. Lewis, and
taking the evidence of the police-constable as to the pri-
soner's apprehension.
Police_constable Wyness, D 43, after the statement
given above was read, deposed that he apprehended the
prisoner on the morning of Sunday, the 29th of Decem-
ber last, at Amsig, in Inverness-shire.. On taking him
into custody he read the warrant to him, whoa the pri-
soner said if he had anything belonging to Mrs. Lewis
she could have it again.
Mr. FATNTZII inquired if any portion of the property

had been recovered ? Wyness said, he had since traced
six 101. and two 31. notes, which were now in the custody
of the sheriff substitute of the county, and also 40 sove-
reigns. In tke prisoner's boxes was also found a quan-
tity of new wearing apparel, also tire-arms, gunpowdea,
and skot, and on his person 281. in gold and 12s. 6d. in
Ave*
The prisoner applied to have a portion of the gold
found on him at the time of his apprehension given up,
to enable him to engage a legal adviser to conduct his
defence. He also wished a bill of exchange for 63/.,
which was found on him, payable at sight, should be
given up.
Mr. PAYNTER told him he should have ei dry facility
afforded him to prepare for his defence, contiat nt with
the ends of justice. He could not order the SOL. or any
part to be given to him ; but, if the 631. biii m paid,
the police might give him part of the sum gaining
beyond the amount of the robbery, to enable RI-12 to get
up his defence.
The prisoner was then remanded until next Thursday
fortnight, the 30th inst., by which time it is expected all
the necessary witnesses will be in attendaw!e.
The prisoner, who was stated to be a married man,
with a family, was on the point of leaving Scotland for
America when he WAS apprehended.

Ctn.
SUGAR.—The market for British Plantation has been
heavy, only about 300 hhds having been sold at rather
easier prices. The public sales have consisted chiefly of
1,915 bags Bengal, 5,926 bags Manilla, and 385 boxes da-
maged Havannah. The Bengal only partly found
buyers at about previous rates, but, being chiefly in
small lots, and a great portion sulphury, it affords no
guide to the [market generally. All the sound Manilla
was taken in above the value, viz., at 20s to 20s 6d for low
to mid greyish yellow clayed ; about 500 bags damaged
brought lgs 6d to 19s ; the Havannah sold at 18s to
21s 6d for good brown to good greyish yellow, which are
former rates, The quantity of British Plantation landed
last week at the East and West India Docks was 256
hhds 45 tierces 95 barrels, and there were taken for
home consumption 1,110 hhds 89 tierces 157 barrels.
The stock in the same places is 7,647 Wads 929 tierces
1,572 barrels.
COFFEE.-317 bags East India at auction found buyers
at 42s to 43s for go. yellow Batavia.
SALTPETRE —350 bags Bengal were all taken in at
25s 6d to 26s for 10& to 7i per cent. refraction.
DICE.-631 pockets Bengal sold at lOs to lls for very
small broken white.

HUM.—The quantity landed last week, at the East and
West India Docks, was 196 hhds. There were taken
for home consumption 195 puns 21 hhdi, and exported
226 puns 54 hhds. the stock in the same plaees is
10,236 puns 1.206 hbds.
TALLOW.—The niurti et i quiet. P Y. C. at 40s pet
cwt ilO spot, and Town at 44s per cwt.
TSCA.—The market is firm, and the consumption is
increasing.

(From the London New Price Current of Jan. 14.)
SCGAA.—Today there was little alteration in the
value of West India Sugar; but the business trans-
acted was extremely limited, and which was owing to
the dark state of the weather preventing the samples
from being properly inspected ; a public sale of 106 hhds
3 trcs of Barbadoes was in consequence postponed.
MAURITIUS.—A better demand has been experienced
for this description of Sugar, but the market has been
well supplied, particularly with bright yellow qualities ;
previous rates are fully supported, indeed, in several in-
stances, good and fine yellow fetched 6d per cwt advance.
At auction 8,010 ba a 278 casks were all sold—fine yel-
low at 62s to 655, good mid and good 56s 6cl to 60s, mid
53s 6d to 565, low 52s to 535, fine brown 51s to 51s 6d, ,
low and very low dark brown 36s 6d to 40s per cwt;
nearly the whole consisted of middling, good and fine
yellow.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon three parcels of Bengal
Sugar, amounting to 3,872 bags, were submitted to pub-
lic competition ; white all sold at steady rates—that is
to say, file at 66s to 66s 6d, good 63s to 655, mid 61s to
625, low 595, damp and washed 58s to 64s 6d, sound
grey 595, mid yellow 55s to 56s 6d, but the brown. of
which the bulk consisted, only partly found buyers
at former terms; mid sound at 42s to 42s 6d, low damp
38s to 39s 6d. and mid to good 41s to 44s per cwt. A
public sale of 5,000 bags of Madras, and two of 2,100
white Bengal were postponed i❑ consequence of the dark
state of the weather preventing the samples from being
properly inspected.
FOREIGN.—YeIIow Havannah Sugar has been much
inquired for, but business has been checked by
the short supply at market, and the stiff rates that
are insisted upon. 1,000 boxes have been sold pri-
vately since Tuesday last at 21s 6d to 23s for mid-
dling to fine quality. At auction 1,197 chests were
put up, the damaged amounting to 535 chests sold
at 19s 6d to 21s 6d for slightly, and at 18s to 20s for da-
maged, but the sound was taken in above the value,
middling and good middling at 21s 6d to 22s 6d, ordi-
nary 19s 6d to 21s, and fine brown 19s per cwt, but the
chief part has since been sold at these rates. Brazil good
and fine Bahia realised 18s to 19s, and white 20s 6d to
24s 6d for fine quality. In other sorts there has been
rather more business transacted at previous quotations.
REFINED.—To-day the home trade were less inclined
to purchase Refined Goods, and there was more desire
on the part of refiners to sell. Brown Lumps at 725,
and Standard Lumps 73s per cwt. Bonded Crushed
Sugar is greatly want, d at 31s per cwt, but at which
there are no sellers.

MoLAssEs. —West India is much wanted, but a fur-
ther advance in prices being required, has tended to
check business ; the salts amount to 300 puns. chiefly at
23s 6d per cwt for Antigua, being fully the former worb.
East India are inquired for at 14s to 17s per cwt. The
stock of all sorts is diminishing, and holders manifest
firmness.

RlcE.—This afternoon Importers of Beng•sl Rice were
'pore inclined to realise, and 1550 pockets 1764 bags at.
public sale were mostly sold at a decline of 6d per cwt,
mid white went at lOs 6d to Ils, good mid lls to
Ils 6d, second and third class 9s to 10s, fourth class Bs,
sea damaged and repacked 8s to 8s 6d per ewt.
COFFEE.—West India is not much wanted at present
for home consumption, and the market has been better
supplied this day week, still holders have refus.,d to re-
duce their prices for clean sorts, but for unclean Bcrlnce
a decline on the former value of 2s to 3s per cat has
taken place ; the quantity of Coffee brought forward
has proved more than sufficient for the wants of the trade.
This afternoon at public sale 250 bags of Manilla Coffee
were sold at 36s to 36s 6d for fine ordinary pale, 34s 6d
sea damaged first class, 34s for second class, 29s for third
class, and 30s for sea damaged and repacked. Ceylon
met with attention, and 43i bags at public sale were all
sold at very full rates ; good ordinary pale went at 52s
to 52s 6d, dark Plantation 55s to 51s, fine yellow 86s 6d,
mid 72s 6d. 165 bags of bulked Bahia were taken in,
good ord 29s to 325, ord 26s fid to 275, and triage 253 per
cwt.

TEA.—Merchants still show firmness, and none h^.s
been offered at public sale, and at present there is no-
thing declared, but the market is not so brisk as it was.
To-day there was little inclination to purchase Tea, but
merchants insisted upon full rates, common sound
Congou was not to be purchased under lld, Twanßay
Is 3d, and clean Pouchong 7d per lb. Duty has been paid
at this port on 419,7001b5, during the past week.
Cocol.—The :market has become quiet for West
India, but merchlints will not take lower rates, on ac-
count of the smallness of the stock. At auction a part
only of 459 bags of Trinidad found buyers at the former
currency ; good middling and good red at 48s to 50s,
middling 44s to 465 6d, low 42s 6d to 43s 6d, and grey
41s to 43s per cwt. Foreign, however, is much wanted,
and the supply being small, a further advance has taken
place in prices. At auction 80 bags Bahia fetched 37s
to 39s per cwt for good red.
Rum, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.—There has been a
good business transacted in Calcutta Rum. In Leewards
several purchases made, proof selling at '2s 21d to 2s 3d
per gallon. In Demerara the transactions are upon a
more extended scale, at 3s 3d for 32 to 33 per cent over-
proof. In Jamaica 300 puns have been disposed of-28
to 33 per cent overproof at 3s 6d to 3s 8d for fair and
middling quality, and 33 to 35 per cent over at 4s
per gallon for good. In Brandy an increased business has
been transacted ; an advance in prices of Id per gallon
has taken place for the best descriptions ; inferior and
middling are held with firmness. We quote Cognac best
brands, of the vintage of 1838, hhds 5s 3d, puns
5s Id ; ditto, 1839, hhds ss, puns 4s 10d ; ditto, 1840,
hhds ss, puns 4s 10d ; ditto, 1841, hhds 4s 11d, puns

4s 6d, puns 4s 4d; common, 2s 8d to 2s Ild; mid to good
middling, 3s to 3s 10d; and Bordeaux common, 2s 6d to
2s 8d per gallon. Of Geneva the stock here is small;
prices are in consequence firm; shipping sort Is 10d to
Is I Id, and fine 2s 6d to 3s 6d. For English Corn
Spirits lOs 2d per gallon, cash, is readily obtained, and
lOs 3d for small quantities. To-day some parcels of
Calcutta Rum were sold at 2s to 2s ld, and Leewards at
2s 21d to 2s 3d per gallon, proof. There were several
inquiries for Jamaica, but the rates offered were such
that holders would not accept.
FRUIT.—To-day there was much activity in the Cur-
rant market, and a further advance took place in prices,
Patras fetching 49s to 51s, and Zante and Cephalonia
48s per cwt.
SPICES.—This afternoon at public sale 27 chests of
Nutmegs were sold at full rates ; ord Penang 2s 9d to
