inactive,
,but prices rule nominally the same as last
quoted.
COTTON.—The market was rather dull previously
to the public sales yesterday, and on Brazil a decline
.of id. per lb. was established, but in consequence
of the unusually large attendance of buyers, nearly
the whole of what was offered was taken at about
the prices previously current. 2,000 bags of Anie-
rican and 500 Brazil have been taken on- speculation.
The import is 13,047 bags, and the sales amount to

little Gaboon 71. lOs, per ton has been obtained.

PREPARING PROVISIONS IOR SHIPPING,
Sec.—The article described in Capt. PARRY'S late voyage,
by the name of Pemmican, is animal food.of any sort
cooked, and subsequently dried in a gentle heat, and re-
duced to powder, and pressed, by which the original volume
is reduced to thtt of, one4fth or six.th. Vegetables may
he preserved in a similar way, by grinding the fubstance
a mill previous to pressure, in order to extract the whole
of the water they contain, and packing the dry essence in
air-tight bottles or jars. This vegetable preparation would
affortla most valuable addition to a ship's provisions for
long voyages to warm climates, as a preventive against

POLICE INTELLIGENCE. • 1

BOW-STREET.-SUSPICION OF MURDER,-- 1110 f.
HALLS, 'Esci: the sitting Magistrate, entered into the in-
vestigation of an occurrence which has created a very ex.
traordivary sensation, the facts elicited having caused la'
strong suspicion to be entertained that a murder was colli-
mated on Friday night on Waterloo-bridge, on the body
of a female. What adds to the singularity:of the affair
that the person who was taken into custody by a watch •
man, and conveyed to a watch-house charged with the
crime, was permitted to gO at large by the officer who Or
that occasion officiated as night-constable at the watch-
house of 'St. 'Mary-le-Strand. Mr. HALLS, in the early
part of the day, had directed'Aldereon, an officer, to in-
quire into the circumstances, and to bring all parties who
-could throw any light upon the subject before him on Sii-
turday evening. At eight o'clock, the officer, with Ed-
wards, and other persons, were in attendance, when the
folloWing examination took place ,
Edwards, the nightconstable, whose conduct has rd-
peatedly been thesubiect_ of just animadversion by the Mai-
gistratei of this office, said, that on Priday morning, abomit.
an hour after midnight, Lawrence, a' watchman of Water-
looabridge, breught a gentlemanly-loOking man to the
watch-house of St. Mary-leStrand, and stated that l 4!,
had brought him from Waterloo-bridge in consequence
of his -.being in the company of. a female who had
leaped • over the parapet into the Thames, •and was
drowned. He. (Edwards) walked with
.the gentleman and
Lawrence to Waterloo-bridge, and .saw. Carlo, the gate-
keeper, and he was then told merely; "that the gentleman
paid the toll for the female, and that she had thrown her-
. self into the water." The gentleman wrote his name and
address on a letter, which was produced by a Mr. Dignuni,
who happened to be present, and then he suffered the gent
tleman to goabout, his business.
Mr. HALLS-2-What, let him go, merely because he wrote
some name and address,- "'Mr. Clayton, No. 11, Upper
Spring-street, Portman-Square," on a piece of paper. How
do ypu know it was his :real name and address that he gave?
- Almiersers,•the officer, said,-that hehad inquired at No.
11, Upper- 'Spring-street, Portman-square, and no such
person resided there.
Mr. Har.r.s—ln a case of this description, you
(Edwards) ought to have detained the man, or at least
have-ascertained, that the address he gave was a true one.
Emlivards--:-I did not learn till after the gentleman was
gone that he had twice been through the gate to the female,
before-she threw herself into the water. Had Carlo in-
forrned me at first, that which he did afterWard4, I should
not have let the;grntleinan go.
Jolom Laivience deposed, he is a Watchman of Waterloo-
bridg;; between twelVeand one o'clock he was on his beat,
and heard 'a voice call b'ut '" Murder !" and a gentleman
call out Watch !'' Ime..raa to the alcove neat the gate, on
the Strand -side of the bridge; and asked •the gentleman
what'he Wanted. He replickl, "a female has fallen over...*
Witnrss replied, " that imm impossible,- she must have leaped
over, or haife been thrown over." Witness looked over
the parapet, and saw a female floating on the. surface of the
water. He instantly called to the guard ship below to send
out a boat The tide wok flowing very strong at the time,
-but she continued to float for about four minutes, and then
she sunk.. -A boat arrived inabout five minutes afterwards,
but the body could not be found.. Witness told the gentle-
.man that he-must go with himn--to the.watchhouse ; and' he
-asked the gentleman if he knew who the female' was? He
replied that ", he knew her, for she lived over the water,"
meaning in Lambeth.
• Mr. Ilarr.s—Did you ask him who he was ?----.Witness,
Yes ; he said be was a respectable 'tradesman, and that the
female had gat over the parapet for a particular pm pose
witness examined the place from which the gentleman said
she fell, and found on the parapet nhandkerchief, which
he produced;. there was no name upon it, or mark, as he
could discover; after time gentleman had been taken to time
watchhouse, Edwards, the night constable, returned with
the gentleman to Waterloo-bridge, and bad some conversa-
tion with him; after which he took his address, and let
him go 'away. •
Mr. HALLS.—Who saw the parties first?.
Carlo, a money-taker of Waterloo-bridge, deposed, that
about half an hour after twelve o'clock, on Friday morning,
he saw a gentleman and a female coming towards the gate;
they stopped to talk within a short distance, and the female
appeared' to be vexed at something Which 'the gentleman
had said to her, but he (witness) could not distinguish
the words used by either party ; they came after Ward- to
the gate, and the gentleman paid foi• himself, and said to
the female, "shall I pay for you?" She made some in-
distinct answer, and be paid ibr her ; they had proceeded
a short distance on the bridge, when he heard n loud talk-
ing, and a sort of skirmish ; and soon afterwards,' on going
out of time gate-house, he saw the gentleman standing on
the Strand side of the wicket, and the female on the other
side, and the gentleman was holding her by one arm, and
endeavouring to pull her through; she said that ahe would
not come, and she got away from him and went upon the
bridge again ; the gentleman said, " that foolish woman
will stay on the bridge, all night, or probably throw herself
over the bridge ;" the gentleman then paid another penny,
and again 'paSsed through the wicket after•the feMale, and
joined her Upon •the .seat of the first alcove ; in about foer
minutes afterwards,: Witness heard a cry of " murder !"
whielm was succeeded by the gentleman crying " watch,
watch !" and on going to learn the cause, the gentleman,
who was in conversation with the watchman, said she had
fallen into the water.

Mr. HALLs—Did they appear to be sober when they
went through the gate? Witness—Perfectly so.
Mr. Dignum said; that he was present when Edwards
took the address of the gentleman, and suffered him to
depart. Witness would know the man again, if.he should
see him.

Mr. Haus—l do not hesitate to tell you, Edwards, that
you have acted extremely wrong ; it was very culpable in-
deed in you, on.such .au occasion, circumstances being so
very suspicious, to let the person go.
Edwards—l can explain : there was no charge made
against the gentleman by the watchman ; he merely said
that the gentleman was in company with a woman who
had drowned herself. After I bad allowed the gentleman
to go away, I was very anxious, and prOceeded again to
the bridge, when I then learned that the gentleman paid
twice to go on to the bridge to the female. Had Carlo
told me so before, I should have detained the gentle Man.
Carlo—l did tell you so.

Mr. HALLs—I am not to be Cajoled with fine speeches,
Mr. Edwards; and if you did not know it was your duty
as a constable, to have detained the accused ; let nip inform
you, that, as a man possessing common feeling, you were
bound to have detained him without any formal charge
having been' made, and,
.if you do not produce hips, you
trill be.punished to an extent that you may not expect.
Edwards said he was extremely, sorry be had let the gen-
tleman go, but it was only a fortnight. ago that Sir Richard
Birnie reprimanded him for detaining in the watch-house
a person who had, been taken in charge by a watchman, in
Catharine-street.

Mr. HaLLs-:-That was a very different case; that per-
son was a housekeeper living in the parish, and he was ap-
prehended merely because he was talking qtiietly to a few
friends in the street, and refused to " move on" at the
watchman's bidding. In this ease a fellow-creature has
lost her life, and what could have induced you to let the
man go after he was brought to the watchhouse, I cannot
say, but such conduct is very suspicious.—Edwards—l
say, Sir, that no charge was made.
Mr. HALLS—And I say, Sir, that no charge was neces-
sary in such a case ; don't make speeches here, Sir, but
mend your conduct, which has been very bad.—Edwards
I will do all I can to find the man.
Mr. HALLS-You had better.

Alderson, the officer, we understand, has obtained some
clue to the individual, and little doubt is entertained of his
speedy apprehension. The circumstance of the man hav-
ing given a false address, has greatly added to the suspicion
which exists relatiie to the transaction.

HATTON-GARDEN.—J. Barker, laceman, No. 296,
High-Holborn, was brought up on Saturday last, before
Mr. LAING, under an,assaultwarrant, charged by Richd.
Garland with baVing in a violent and outrageous manner
struck and kicked him, on the night• of the 15th inst.
Mr. LAING=.-What provocation did you receive? De-
fendant—Some. observations, Sir, having passed between
us at the Grotto, relative to a third person, who happens
to be a female, Mr. Garland, "bold in the lady's quarrel,"
threw down the gauntlet, and said, " Barker, you are no
gentleman; )ou are a blaCkgtiard ;" and upon this I acted.
Mr. LAING—Make it up with the complainant, or you
shall find bail.

At this moment another person, named John Gardener,
Who lives in Clerkenwell, came forward, and said he had
a charge of a similar nature to prefer against Mr. Barker.
Being sworn, he skated, that on the night of the Pith
instant,•the.night following that of the aforementioned as-
sault, he was at the Grotto, where was also Mr. Barker,:
and that. Mr. Barker, in the most unprovoked manner, •
furiously laid hold of and struck him.
Mr. Barker, in his defence, said that this gentleman ap-;
peared on that night as the champion and avenger of Mr.
Garland ; and that he said to him, "Barker, are you sorry
for the abuse which you last night offered to my friend,
and do you 'recall the insult you gaVe him ?" ' This,' Sir,
was the ground of the assault now complained of.
Mr. LAING ordered the defendant to find bail for both
the assaults : and the matter stands over for the Sessions.
MARLBOROUGH-STREET...—FALSE CiartacT‘Eas.

Sdturday, Samuel Underhill, a young men ofikkieent
appearance, was -Charged with having attempted i to.. im-
pose upon. John. Pulteney, Esq., ,of Grosvenor-place, by
inducing him, by means of a false character; to; hire: he
prisoner. as a footman. Mr. Pulteney stated,. that:, he
agreed to _take the prisoner into his service, if satisfied
"with his reference for a character. The prisoner referred hint
to John Jones, Esq. Field House, Epsoni, with. whom, he
said, he had lived seven years. Mr. Pulteriey, in consequence,
wrote to Mr. Jones, and received an • answer, giving the
prisoner an excellent character ; but from something in
the composition of the letter, he was led to Suspect that it
might not be genuine, and went to Epsom, where he as-
certained that no such person as Mr. Jones was known,
and the postmaster informed him that he had never seen a
letter so directed but one, that was taken from the office a
few (lays before by a person he (lid not know. Being satis-
fied that the letter was a forgery, when the prisoner next
calletl'at his house he had him taken into custody, and he
confessed the fait: The prisoner, at the office, stated, that
he had resorted to the stratagem to obtain a situation, to
save himself from starvation; On further examination, it
appeared that he hid lived with John Jones, Esq.,-of 'Wilt-
shire, whose servant, Webster; was found guilty at the last
Gloucester Assires, and executed, for robbing him of a
large quantity of plate..—The.Magistrate.observed, that it
was plain what the prisoaer's intentions .were, and inflicted
the full penalty of 201.—The prisoner said, he had a friend
that would immediately pay it for him.' ,• .
A well-known character, named John Stack, was re-
manded for a future examination- on a charge of knocking
down a gentleman, named Giles, residing at Mitcham, in
Surrey, about five o'clock in the evening, in Queen-street,
Lincoln's-inn, and robbing him of his watch, &c. •
Mary Holloway, the young woman who was ordered
to be committed to prison for three months, on a charge
of burdening the parish of St. George, Hanover-square,
with a bastard child, the name of whose father she refused
to disclose, again made her appearance at the office, the
parish-officers having relented on the subject, had
again taken her and her child into the workhouse, but she
refused to stay there, and insisted that the parish should
allow her a weekly sum to subsist upon ; this the parish
refused to do, and the Magistrates declined interfering in
her behalf, her conduct had been so bad.

QUEEN-SQUARE.—On Saturday seven licensed vic-
tuallers from Kensington; appeared to informations for
having their houses open during divine service on Sunday.
They all pleade6l, guilty. An attorney, who attended for
them, pleaded that his clients committed the offence in
error ; in Kensington the church service commenced at
half-past nine in the morning, and continued to eleven ; ,it
began again at half-past eleven, andrcontinned to one; it
again commenced at half-past three, and finished at five—
so that there was very little interval for opening their houses
for• the accommodatibn of their customers;' and several of
the houses were booking-houses forpassengers by the stage-
coaches, Which arrived and set Off at all'hours:

The MAGISTRATES said, the defendants bid done every
thin.' to entitle themselves to a mitigation of the penalty
in the course they had, adopted, and they would therefore
mitigate the.penalty to 20s. each.

SC;ine oftlie defendants asked host, they were •to act to-
wards trairellers who were in want of refreshment?

Mr. MARRIOTT replied, that the law wade no distinction.

LA Ml 3 gT H-STR.E ET. —lxt SoLemo Ns', Pao'. ERT.Y.
—After the' commitment to Newgate of a Jew named John
Nathan, for a' daring robbery on the person of a Mr. Paul,
whom he enticed into lais 'house under the pretence of show-
ing him a weather-glass which be had to dispose. of, a
Jewish-looking person mite forward, and said that his
house had been robbed eight days before, and that this very
weather-glass was part of the property stolen, he therefore
hoped that their Worships ,would grant. him a warrant to
search Nathan's house, and also that of another person
where be sosPected, the remainder of the plunder had been
disposed .of.
Mr. BAUDWICICE.-What is your 'name? Applicant.
Abraham Samuel. '

Mir: ILlanwxcxE.—Pray had you any connection with
Ikey Solomons? Samuel. Why yes; Sir ; we Were mar-
ried to two sisters, but there was no other connexion
between us, nor have I'even spoken to him for some years
past. • .

Mr. "riaßrilxicxx--...Whitt is your trade or husineils
confectioner.

Ali. Ilmtmytcug—Will you inform, us whether you
have ever been tried ?—Samucl—.l. don't see what this Luis
to do with Jmy, application.. ,
Mr. IfAnnwicKE-;--It certainly has.—Samuel still hesi-
tated, but at length said, that he. had never. been found
guilty of a felony or perjury, and therefore his oath might
be Safely taken
Mr. HARDWICKE-Were you ever tried at the Old Bai-
ley ?—Samnel—l was.

..Mr. HARDWICKE-..411111 eonvicted
Mr. HARDWICKE-What for ?.--Samuel for being pre.
sent when an officer took a sum of money not to prosecute.

Mr. Hannwicire—You certainly are very shy in giving
your. answers. What was the consequence of that convic-
tion, for by that we may learn something of the nature of
the offence? SammiA—Sir, I have no objection when the
office is cleared to give you every information in my power,
bet would wish to remain silent ,for the,preseut.. •
This be subsequently slid, and the Newgate Calendar
being produced, it was ascertained that he was tried and
convicted in 1822, and sentenced to 'two years' imprison-
ment. While giving an account of the transaction, he
opened his budget relative to the practices of some of his
brother Israelites, particularly the attornies, and mock at-
tornies, one of whom he said was convicted and imprisoned,
another of them was indicted for perjury, and a third, in
whose apprehension he bad beep instrumental,. was.taken
before the Lord Mayor .for stealing 3001. from a Captain,
but escaped, owing to his being admitted as King's evi-
'deuce against his confederates. He also gave a detailed ac-
count of the arrangementsfor the escape of his brother-in-
law, Ikey Solomons, and of the persons' who played the
principal parts in it,'from the first application for the habeas
down to his masterly retreat in Petticoat-lane. The coach,
he said was driven by his father-in-law, hut it was not
his (Samuel's) fault that Ikey escaped, for on the
previous day lie called at Newgate to see Mr.
Wontner, to communicate what was in contemplation,
but neither he nor his chief clerk being within, he was
obliged to inform one of the officers, giving him direction; to
apprise the GoVernor the moment he reached home of the
' plot that was in agitation; this he supposed had riot been
done, and Ikey got off with flying colours. After stating
`sorne further particulars to the Magistrates, the warrants
were granted, and placed in the hands of the officers.
Both. Were immediately. executed, ,hut quick. as were their
motions, the news had gone before them, and the only re-
sult of the "search was the finding of the weather-glass in'
Nathan's house, which -was identified by:Samuel as part of
the property which had been stolen from a house of his in
Rupert-street.
It has since transpired that time entire of the plunder ac-
tually belonged to Ikey Solomons, and that prior to her,
trial, Mrs. Solomons fearing that, in the event of her being,
convicted, it would beconie the property of the Sheriffs or
the Crown, conveyed it to the care of her brother-inzlaw
Samuel. The burglars are supposed to have known this,
and it operated as an encouragement to their depredations.
WORSHIP-STREET.--On Saturday, William: Cutts
was brought before Mr. BROUGHTON, for final examina-
tion, and committed on several charges of horse-stealing.
The prisoner was apprehended a short time since at Gos-
port, by Mr. Barber, Governor of the House of Correc-
tion, who found in his posseSsion a great number of horses,
all of which are. supposed to have been stolen. One of
them was the property of Mr. Peck, of Old Ford, in Essex,
stolen from the door of the Jolly Sailor public house, Shad-
well, by a man named Watson, who has been capitally con-
victed of the theft, and was included in the Recorder's last
Report.' Many other of the horses have also been claimed,
and the prisoner stands committed for trial, on the capital
charge, in seven cases, in addition to which, it is believed,
that others will be established against him.
. The owners of some of the horses requested that they
might be left in their possession, which, upon their, enter-
ing into recognizancei to produce the animals at the trial,
was complied with.
'Two men, named Johnson and Chapman,' were aisp
fully committed for trial'on charges :of horse-stealing.
