HATTON-GARDEN.

ST ABRING.—John Annear, a lad of 16 years of
age, was yesterday brought up by Blake, the con-
stable, charged vtith having on Sunday stabbed in
several parts of the body with a penknife, James
Gorman, a lad of 14 years of age.
Gorman was unable to appear. A certificate
from a surgeon was produced, declaring him out of
danger, but as the certificate had not been furnished
by the surgeon on the part of Annear, Mr. LAING
did not consider it satisfactory.
It appeared that in a field in Maiden•lane, called
Laycock's field, which is much resorted to by boys,
that the prisoner had been beset by the others, who
were teazi-g him, and be took out the knife and
threatened to stab the first who came near him.
Got man disregarded the threat, and prisoner, using
the knife back-handed, plunged it into his ribs, and
about the groin. The point of the knife bud been
broken in the act.

Prisoner said he had done it in hit own defence.
He was remanded till Thursday; and us the wit-
nesses seemed unwilling to appear, summonses were
issued for them.

Edward Edwards was brought up, charged with
stealing a watch from a person in White Lion-court.
Duke, the officer, at first thought that Edwards
was a returned transport, but Raven, the messenger,
recognised him as the man who nearly three years
ago was convicted for having stabbed Pople, the
officer of Union-hall. Edwards was then sentenced
to two years' imprisonment, which term he corn-
pleted about nine months ago. lie was remanded
for evidence to be produced.

Bill Butler and .Tack Campfleld were charged
with cruelly assaulting William Long, and with rob-
bing him of 245. and a silk handkerchief.

The prisoners were on Sunday in the act of re-
moving their goods, as was supposed to evade the
payment of the rent, when Long, who was ac-
quainted with them, made some remarks. The two
prisoners then furiously attacked him with a pewter
pot, and beat him in a dreadful manner about the
head, and it was stated robbed him in the struggle.
There were about three hundred persons assembled
in the street, opposite the house, No. 3, Gee-street,
Goswell-streer, who were determined to prevent the
prisoners being apprehended, and the neighbourhood
was a complete scene of riot between twelve and one,
when Davis, the constable, forced an entry through
a window, and succeeded in taking the prisoners.
They were remanded on both charges, and search
ordered to be made for others of the rioters.

SECOND EDITION.

CONSTANTINOPLE, AUG. 25.—The Russian army
entered Adrianople on the 20th ; from thence it
immediately commenced its march on Constanti-
nople, in three columns. The column of the right
wing is marching on Rodosto, and appears to have
the intention of taking possession of the Dardanelles
by land, which will be easy enough. That of the
left wing is advancing along the borders of the Black
Sea, probably to take possession of the Bosphorus.
There, at the sante time, the Russian squadrons
will make their appearance on both sides, and the
centre column will march direct on Constantinople.
From the last accounts it was near to Dsjatal
Burgas. Notwithstanding the menacing position of
the enemy, within these two days an armistice has
been talked of, and even a peace. What is certain
is, that for this fortnight the private secretary of the
PrusSian Ambassador has been at the Russian head-
quarters, with a dragoman, to effect an armistice.
A general levy calls to arms all the Tullis under
sixty years of age ; all must place themselves under
the sacred standard, which it was wished should be
carried to-day into the camp near Ramis Tschiflik;
but that ceremony has not yet taken place. Every
thing appears to favour the general wish—that of
peace, or at least an armistice.
The Russian army is considered to amount to
50,000 men. If that is true, it would not be with-
out danger for it to enter a capital the populatio►► of
which is eight times the number, and which is
fanatised by an energetic Prince.
It was stated lately to the Sultan that the Rus-
sians threatened the capital. " What matters," re-
plied his Highness ; " have not all the capitals of
Europe seen enemy's troops in them ?. I will carry
on the war till the last man, sooner than conclude a
disgraceful peace !"
It was reported that the day before yesterday the
Sultan had a Paella strangled who commanded near
the Bosphorus, as he was suspected of treason.
The few Turks of an age tit to carry arms who are
in our city (as the others are in the camp) form
patrols, and parade during the night, to protect the
inhabitants from fire and other excesses.

We are informed by a highly respectable cor-
respondent at Whitby, that the dinner given, to the Hon
Member for Newark, last week, was altogether a very
insignificant affair. Among the great body of the popu.
lation, amounting to about 10,000 persons, the adVent and
exit of the Hon. Gentleman pradueed no sensation what-
ever. From 50 to 60 persons, among whnrn were two
Magistrates, were present at the dinner, having been.
brought together by %Ll invitation. As the invita-

tions were sent to those only who were known to be oppo-
nents of Mr. linsictssoN, there was, of course, great
unanimity among them, but they no mnre represented the
opinion of the town of Whitby on the sulkject of free trade,
than our Brunswick Club (which was brought together in
a similar manner) represented the opinion of the town o!.
Leeds on the subject of Catholic emancipation. Of the
six Magistrates of the district, two were present, as we
mentioned &.ove ; the other four were absent, not because
they were indifferent, but because they were opposed to
Mr. SAIMER.S views. We believe that the dinner- was a
very good on-, and we know that the speeches were pretty
muck on a par with those with which tbe lieu. Gentle,
man has Leen accustomed for so many years to the
enlightened members of our rift club ; but it is per-

NEW COURT.

WM. Taylor was indicted for stealing two hats,
the property of his employers, Messfs. Moore and
Bicknell, military hatters, Bond-street. The pri-
soner received a good character from several wit-
nesses, and the Jury acquitted him.
Sarah Jones was indicted for stealing on the sth
December a gilt neck chain, the property of Chris-
topher Butcher, of the Soho Bazaar.
the prisoner was suspected by the prosecutor and
searched. The chain which he identified he found
in her bosom.

The prisoner made no defence, but called the
master and mistress, with whom she lived at the

time, to speak to her character. They gave her an
excellent one, and the Jury almost instantly ac-
quitted her. _ _

Ellen-Sweetman was indicted for stealing two pair
of shoes from the shop of Mr. Mann, of the Hay-
market.

A younger sister of the prisoner's was also in-
dicted, but pleaded guilty, and it being put in evi-
dence that they had secreted the shoes while asking
the price of some in the shop, and that on being pur,
sued the shoes were found in their possession, she
was convicted.

Henry Grantham was indicted for stealing a gun,
value 351., the property of Joseph Egg.
James Muggridge had received the gun to work
upon, and left it at the workshop till he I eturned the
next day, when he missed it.
The, prisoner worked in a carpenter's shop under-
neath the prosecutor's shop. The gun was pledged
for 81., and the ticket found on the prisoner when
taken. lie then treated it as a drunken freak, but
now denied all knowledge of the gun, stating in le.
fence that ire found the ticket in the workshop.—
Verdict Guilty.

SURREY THEATRE.

A new piece, a version from the French La
was produced at this Theatre last night, un-
der the title of "My Old Woman." The piece is
adapted in a highly creditable trimmer, and affords
one of the most favourable specimens of the class
we have seen for some time. Mrs. FITZWILLIAM'S
performance of the heroine was admirable, and de-
served the continual applause it met with. She
was ably supported by all the other performers, par-
ticularly M. WYNNE, who appears very much im-
proved since he last appeared on these boards. The
piece was announced for repetition, and is to be per-
formed this evening, for the amusement of the juve-

mime at an early part of the evening.

POLICE INTELLIQENCE.

UNION-HALL.

On Tuesday Mr. James Corder, vestry-clerk of
St. Paul's, Covent-garden, was brought to this office
charged by Mahoney, a private watchman, with being
drunk and disorderly, and disturbed the inmates of
the house No. 15, Stamford-street, between one
and two o'clock on the same morning. The watch-
man stated that he observed the defendant knock-
ing at door of the above house, and ringing a
bell, until a woman. opened the window and said to
him, " Mrs. White is not here, she is now living on
the opposite side of the' way, at No. 71." The de-
fendant, not satisfied with this answer, continued
his applications at the knocker and door-bell with
redoubled violence, and so much to the annoyance
of the adjoining inhabitants; that two of them de-
sired Mahoney to take the disturber into custody.
Mahoney did so, and conveyed him forthwith to the
Waterloo-foad watch-house. In the watch-house
Mr. Corder became exceedingly abusive; stated that
his name was Fitzpatrick, that he was a magistrate
of the county of Wilts, and had been dining that day
with a few of his brother magistrates.
Valentine Roberts, the constable of the night,
stated that Mr. Corder, when brought to the watch-
house, was drunk, and became so abusive that he
pushed him (Roberts) off the form.
The defendant admitted that he had been knock-

ing at a door in Stamford-street, but that he did not
know the name of the individual who resided in it,—
that he had been dining out, and had, perhaps,
taken a little too mach ; but that neither his con-
duct nor what he had taken, warranted the abuse
which he had received from the watchman and the
constable of the night.
Mr. CHAMBERS desired him to pay a fine of
for being drunk, which Mr. Corder having made
some objections to, the Magistrate ordered him also
to find bail for the assault. The defendant having
procured the necessary sureties for his appearance at
the Sessions, was then liberffed.
Yesterday Francis Rosert Smith, an officer on
half-pay, and of respectable connections, was charged
with having violated the person of Sarah Lowder, a
child of seven years of age, daughter of a market-
gardener, residing at Canterbury-place, Old Kent-
road.

The particulars of the examination are of too in-
delicate a nature for publication ; but from the evi-
dence of a surgeon who examined the child subse-
quently to the alleged violation, it appeared that the
offence was completed.
The prisoner was remanded.

POPULATION OF HALIFAX, 1828.

A Cenius has just been taken of the uunterous Town-
ships in the Palish of Halifax, for the purpose ozn the ad-
justment of the vicarial claims, which exhibits the aggre—
gate of 104,569 souls, to which enumeration :Tv have :,p-
-pended the Parliamentary Returns of 1811 and 1821, and
from which it appears that the increase of inhabitants iu
that parish, within the last 17 years, amounts to 80,854,
of which 11,219 has arisen in the last seven years.

THREE O'CLOCK

COVENT-GARDEN THEATRE.—Mr. T. P
Coors made his appearance here last night in the stale
melodrame, nut quocunque alio naming gaudet, of Black
Eyed Susan ; he was warmly and deservedly applauded
throughout his performance by a very full house.
The leading character in the forthcoming
story of Patrician life called " The Exclusives," is said
to be Per Serene Highness the Princess of E—n—Y.
Indeed, the chief personages of the novel are, as its title
indicates, the very elite of society.
No fewer than 140 Solicitors were sworn in
before the MAsTEH of the ROLLS yesterday morning.
The leather trade, which was considerably de-
pressed in summer, is new much revived, and a great quan-
tity of business is doing by the eurriers. —Scotsman.
A young man who resided in Perth, a few
days ago unexpectedly found, himself heir to a legacy of
several hundred pounds, which, unhappily has proved to
him any thing but a blessing. Since the time the money
came into his possession, he has indulged to the greatest
excess in rioting and drunkenness ; and yesterday morn-
ing he was found dead, standing upright, at the side of
the pier ! It is supposed that, in a state of intoxication,
during ebb tide, he had taken up his position at that spot,
and being unable to make his exit when it began to flow
i
he had been arrested on the spot till the watg 9TerOPFe4
and suffocated him.,,scofinacpir
The following description of two females,
whoa conformation was somewhat similar to that of the
Siamese youths, is from " Buffon's Natural History :"
" On the 26th October, 1701, at Tzoni, in Hungary,
two female children were born, which were nnitecl toge-
ther at the lolns. They lived to the age of 21 years.
At seven years of age they were carried into Holland,
England, 'ltaly, Reissia, and almost into every country in
Europe. 4t the age of nine they were purchased by a
pious clergyman, in order to place them in a convent" at
Petersburgh, where they remained till the 25th of February,
1723, when they died. One of these twins was named
:Tzt,F,N. and the other JUDITH. HELEN grew tall, and was
straight. ,Inpreti was less, and a little creoked. As they
were united at the loins, they c?ulel only see oile another
by turning their heads. They in general agreed well to-
gether, and loved each other affectionately. At six years
of age JUDITH was affected with the palsy on the left
side i and though afterwards she appeared qrei, elle al-
ways retained 4 vtoug impresviop or that malady, and her
mind was always heavy and weak. HELEN, on the con-
trary, was handsome and gay. She had a good under-
standing, and some wit. They had tie moasles and the
small-pox at the same time ; but they had other maladies
or indispoaitiona separately ; for JuniTit was subject to a
cough and a fever; HELEN, on the contrary, enjoyed good
health. Wheu they were nearly twenty-one years of age,
J upruf togli a fever, fell into a lethargy, and died; the
unfortunate Mari was obliged to follow her lot. Three
minutes before the death of JUDITH she fell into an agony,
and died almost at the same moment."

MONTHLY REVIEW.

This periodical, as usual, has come so very
late to hand, that we have merely time to say,
that on glancing to its chapter of contents they
have a very promising appearance, and will no
doubt be more just than Macbeth's witches,
who " keep the word of promise to the ear, and
break it to the sense."

THE FUNDS.

Our arrivals this morning are very scanty, not a
ship letter having come to baud, consequently we are
at present destitute of information.
Consols, which left off yesterday at 93i / for
money, and 94i for the account, opened at 93}
and 94 for the January account, and soon after
declined to 93j for account, owing to some stock
coming to market for the closing of Consols, which
takes place to-morrow ; it may also be added that
the present high price of Consols is rather tempting
to some of the Bulls, who are anxious to realize and
not wait a reaction of a fall of three per cent. against
a rise of one per cent., which certainly would take
place on the least unfavourable intelligence.
Accounts from the borders of the Vistula of the
3d of November state that the movements of the
Russian troops in the interior still continues, and
they are marching towards the Dnieper. The army
of the Pruth and the Danube receive daily rein-
forcements, and the active army is to be. augmented
to 150,000 men.
In the Foreign market little doing as yet, and
most of the prices nominal.
Consols are at present 94, buyers, for the account.

TWO O'CLOCK.

The Consol Market, which had the appearance
of a retrograde movement in the early part of the
morning, has, within a short period, resumed a dif-
fereat feature, and advanced from 94 to 91i for the
Account, and 93j to 94 for Meney.
The report still continues that the Bank have it
in agitation to discount at 3 per cent.; but this can-
not be known until Thursday next. It is supposed
that several millions will be paid into the Bank this
quarter, on account of the revenue.
In the Foreign Market little business going for-
ward,and the prices are much the same as yesterday.
The Norfolk Herald states that it is probable the
Brandywine frigate, which is ordered for sea, is to
repair with a messenger to Lisbon, to demand of
Don Miguel reparation for the depredation com-
mitted upon American property at Terceira.
Consols are now 941 and for money, 94/, with
a firm market.

Consols 94k.

NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE MARKET.—Nov. 29.

We had a small supply of Wheat from the farmers to-
day, the greater part in poor condition ; the whole sold
reacily at an advance of Is. to 2s. per quarter; most of
the old free Wheat has been shipped, and little now selling
on this market. The few fine Oats that come to market
meet ready sale, but the most are poor, and for such the
demand is heavy and prices very low. The finest Barley
meets steady sale at our quotation, but it is difficult to
quit any of inferior quality. Malt dull. Fine Rye in
moderate demand. Few Beans or Pease offering.

CITY MARKETS, (TWO O'CLOCK.)
SUGAR.-The delivery of Plantation Sugars from the
West India Docks last week amouated to nearly 2,700
casks—all for home consumption, excepting 21 hhds.,
and the stock yesterday was 40,536 hhds., and 2,840
tees. The purchases this morning have yet been very
limited—Good St. Vincent's are quoted 60s. to 645. ;
good Brown Jamaicas 50s. to 51s. ; good and fine To-
bago 58s. to 655.; good Brown Antigua 48s. to 495. per
cwt. Of Mauritius Sugars the landings are extremely
small, and the stock is not higher in the West India
Docks than about 38,000 bags. In all other Sugars
there has as yet been no bargains reported this morning,
and very few public sales are announced for this week.
COFFEE remains firm.

Rl:rm.—The delivery last week was considerable—above
800 puncheons and 500 hhds., of which 468 puncheons
were for export. The stock is now 24,500 puncheons,
and 1,910 hhds. Prices as last quoted.
CorroN.—The increasing demand for Cotton in the
Liverpool Market has had a corresponding influence
here. Bahias, Maranhams, and Egyptian, are from id. to
Id. higher than last week, and more business doing.
EAST INDIA COMPANY'S TEA SALE.—This morning
the periodical sale of Teas by the East India Company
commenced, and was very fully attended. The quantity of
Tea to be put up during the present sale is 7,800,000 lbs.
being precisely the same as offered at the last decla-
ration. The following are the quotations of the se-
v, rIl sorts : of Bohea, 1,200,0001b5. ; of Congou, Campoi,
and Souchong, 5,200,000 lbs. ; of Twankay and Hyson
Skin 1,150,0001b5., and of Hyson 250,0001b5. In the
last mentioned there are 50,0001b5. less than last sale, and
in the third qualities 50,0001b5. more. The sale com-
menced this morning with some activity, and at present
the Boheas are going off briskly at from Is. bd. to
Is. 7d. per lb., extra duty, being nearly the quotations
given at the last sale. The competition in this trade
appears to increase at every sale. The declaration will
not be got through fur some days. The duty on all Teas
sold at the Company's sale under 2s. per lb. is 96 per
cent., and above 2s. 100 per cent.

BLACKWOOD'S MAGAZINE.

We are glad to see the " Noctes" again.
They form an agreeable relief to the long decla-
matory political diatribes in which this otherwise
delightful Magazine has of late, but too often,
abounded. On the present occasion they are
better than they have been for many—many
months, being full of broad extravagant humour,
sober rational sense, and pungent touches of sar-
casm. The one ludicrous incident, where the
Shepherd blacks Christopher North's octogena-
rian face with a burnt cork, reminds us of Peter
Pindar's account of his pension, or rather of the
catastrophe of the cooks' wigs in that matchless,
but coarse, specimen of mingled humour and
buffoonery, the Lousiad. " Phenomena of the
great Earthquake of 1783 in Calabria and Si-
cily," is a stirring description of that awful event,
In parts it displays power, and throughout teems
with interest. "An Essay on the Theory and
Writings of 'Wordsworth," though the subject
be beyond conception hackneyed, though it has
been bandied from magazine to magazine, from
newspaper to newspaper, for the last fifteen or
twenty years—though it has been drained by the
Edinburgh and Quarterly Reviews in every pos-
sible variety of shape and fashion, until every
particle of freshness is lost—though it has been
subjected to all these drawbacks, still by the
mere force of good sense, and adroitness of
handling, the author has this month contrived
to make it not only interesting, but even in some
respects original. His former Essays on the
same topic were dry and repulsive, the present
one is altogether of a superior cut. We regret
that our very limited space will not allow us to
present the reader with a very just and spirited
passage, which enters into a metaphysical ana-
lysis of the different influences of mirth and
pain on the mind of one and the same indi-
vidual. " Wellington in Cadiz, or the Con-
queror and the Cortes," is an animated account
of his Grace's reception at Cadiz by the Casti-
lian Grandees and the Cortes. The details are
remarkably well given, and full of interest.
" Monologue, or a Soliloquy on the Annuals,"
is a broad, rapid, and eloquent sketch of criticism
on these graceful Christmas offerings.

WESSELS' JESUIT'S DROPS, AND SPECIFIC

REMEDY.

THE GENUINE :JESUIT'S DROPS
have been long known and esteemed a safe, cheap,
effectual, and often an immediate cure 'for Strangury,
Gleets, Weakness of the Kidneys or Bladder ; and when
taken on the first attack of a certain Complaint, they will
infallibly accomplish the desised effect. Should the com-
plaint be far advanced, it will be necessary to take
the SPECIFIC REMEDY with the Jesuit's Drops.
Purchasers are particularly reqqested to ask for Joseph
Wessels' Jesuit's Drops, and to be careful that a prepara-
tion under the name of " Dr. Walker's Drops," is not
imposed on them in the place of the Genuine, which is
distinguished from the counterfeits, by having on the Go-
vernment Stamp, Joseph Wessels, St. Pimp, •
The Drops are. in Bottles of 2s. 9d., 11s., and 225.
The Specific is 2s. 9d. per Pot.
