FOLLCE INTELLIGENCE.

MANSION-HOUSE.
SALIKON.—The Loss Bravos yesterday received
a letter, stating, that in consequence of the inattention of the proper'
officers, or perhaps from some other cause, large quantities of un-
sound salmon had•been sent from Billingsgate-market, and sold in
different parts of the town, to the great danger of the health of the
purchasers. Its Lordship immediately sent for one of the officer*
of the market, in order to inquire into the subject. The officer
waited upon his Lordship, and we understood, in answer to the
charge, said that the sale of a quantity, the quality of which was
doubtful, had been lately prevented by the officers, who very nar-
rowly examined all the fish that was brought to Billingsgate; that
there was now but one cargo of salmon in the dock ; that that
cargo was sound, and would probably continue so until the sale,
which would take place next day, should the weather remain cool.
The officer repeated, that the greatest reliance might be placed upon
the activity of those who superintend the market, in preventing
the sale of unwholesome fish.
Rossano rim Sreaatuatnt.—A Jew lad, named .dltrehaes Aaron,
was charged by a member of the religious body of Jews, with hav-
ing sacrilegiously entered the sassehnis 'andantes of the Synagogue,
and stolen a jewel of considerable value.
It was stated that on the Jewish Sabbath before last, the High
Priest having used the point (a silver instrument pointed with.a
jewel, with which the officiating Minister points at the lines of Hely
Writ as he reads), after service placed it in the proper place in the
sanctuary; that the prisoner having got in during the service, con-
cealed himself until the congregation had departed, and then pos-
sessed himself of the point, which is considered by the Jews as a
thing of inestimable value, on account of the use to which it is ap-
plied, the actual value of the jewel, and its great antiquity. It was
offrred for sale on the .27th of last month.
4s the testimooy of the High Priest is nesessary, in order to
prdve the identity, the prikoner was remanded.

Mr.. Turner, the Solicitor, attended on behalf of the parish, and
stated, that the poor man still remained at the Middlesex Hospital,
where he had been lying a fortnight, in consequence of the injury
he had sustained in the tall from the -.vindow ; that he was yet un-
able to come and give evidence, but from the surgeon's account all
danger was over, and by next Tuesday, in all probability he would
be well enough to attend.—The prisoners were remanded until
next Tuesday.
