STOCK EXCHANGE, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

This day is a Holiday at the Bank, but the Stock Exchange is
open. Consols opened at 80j a for the Account, the same as they
left off yesterday; but soon after they rose to 80j 81, with a lively
market. The cause of their the is not exactly known as yet, some
attribute it to a belief that at the meeting of Parliament Ministers
will propose something to relieve the distress of the Mercantile
World; others expect that the Bank and Government, at their
next meeting, will so arrange their affairs, that Government will
not require any Loan to fund the Exchequer Bills.
Consols remain at 80j, for Money 801.

The Foreign Market has improved this morning.

We lament to (*ogre that the commercial distress
among the second4ry and inferior orders of traders,
continues to a deplorable extent. This, as we sta•ed
on many 101 mer occasions, is the inevitable result of the
panic, the consequences of which pressed so ruinously
upon the Bank,. rs, and first classes of commercial me^.
Indeed, it could not reasonably be supposed, that
seventy Couairy Bank*, and five great Banking establish-
ments in London, should have stopped payment, with-

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

MANSION-HOUSE.
An Officer id the East India Company's Service. was &oath
before the Lotus Maroa.—The statement of tie constable of ti•r
watch-house where the Gentleman was toothed, was to the
hag effect :
At half past twelve o'clock on the preceding night, Mr. Con yng.
ham was found by a watchman-, lying oh the steps of a hall-door it
Cornhlll, " blind drunk." The watchman vety properly took hirti
to the watch•house, where the constable seeing that he was a
decent person, made up a bed for him, by placing* few chaps and
a taut under his body, and two bricks for a pillo*, under his head
The defendant was made (to use the constable's own word.)
otherwise very comfortable, and there he lay for four hours with-
out moving. At the expiration of that time, he suddenly got up,
sat by the tire, seized the short pipe of an Irish watchman, and br-:
gam to smoke. The constable forthwith told him he must r•.ct
smoke there, but he swore he would, and upon king gently re .
moved, took up the chsir,and threw it at the City Guardian in all Ei4
authority. The constable, whose pride was the only part of hi::'.
that was wounded, returned the compliment, by flinging back th•
chair, which, in its awkward minion, took the skin off the defend-
ant's nose. Under these circumstances, and because the prison,
charged the " watch house" with having stolen his parse, sehtz:i
• contained a half sovereign, although the constable had taken care
of his watch and his hat, it was devilled necessary to bring hint be.:
fore the Loan :%IA TOR.

The defendant said he had been thinking at Greenbilch—the be
sat down in Cornhill, where lie happened to fail fast asleep—.
that, upon awaking, he found himself without his p-rse.

A waggon driver, named HisetpArica, was fined 20s. for
endangered the lives of two Gentlemen who wcre driving to a
along London Bridge. The fellow had behaved in the most bru,..l
manner, and the Loan Maros regretted that the Act woulti ::at
allow hint to indict a heavier penalty than 20s.
The waggoner was imprisoned in default of payment.

variety of silver articles, amounting to about 101. iu value, from the

The prisoner had been a week in custody, and was now fully
committed to Newgate for trial.

The prindpal witness was James Foy, who had bean himself

Yesterday, Alexander Goldsmid, Esq. Merchant, of Foubury.
square, appeared at this office, on a summons, to answer the com-
plaint of Mr. Thomas -Parker, the ilanager of the Aleropulitan
Dairy Company, Edgeware-road, Paddington, who charged him
with having committed an assault. This arose out of the charge
of embezzlement nude .by Mr. Goldsmid last Friday against Mr.
Parker, which was nut substantiated by evidence and was therefore
dismissed. Mr. G. afterwards called at the house in the Edgewne-
road, where the business of the Company is carried on, and de-
ntsnded certain property to which he thought himself entitled, in
d . g which he was charged with having committed the assault.
Mr. Parker having stated his case, Mr. Goldsmid was ordered to
put in his own recognizance, in the sum of 501. to appear at the
Sessions, if necessary; but the Magistrate (Mr. Outruns) advised,
that the matter should be settled amicably.

UNION•HALL

Yesterday, John Jules, the proprietor and driver of a Greenwich
stage-coach, was brought before the sitting Magistrate, M. Sway,
Esq. charged with having assaulted a Gentleman named Tefrett.
The Magistrate observed that he had frequent opportunities of
witnessing the gross behaviour, particularly of the Greenwich stige
coachmen, and he should now enable Mr. Terrett to prosecute the
defendant at the Sessions, as an example to deter others of the same
fraternity from pursuing similar misconduct towards the public.
The complainant expressed his determination to prosecute, and
the defendant was locked up in default of bail.

The oppositioa steam-boats are taking passengers be-
tween Cork and Bristol for ls. each: three years ago
the charge was three guineas!
Biers, the informer, has, during the past week, been
laying no less than eighteen informations against the
coach proprietors of Cheltenham. Thisperson's trip to
Gloucestershire appears to be a pretty good speculaAion,
as convictions upon his informations appear to have
taken place to the amount of 1151., half of which goes
to the informer.

The parishes of St. Bride and Hampstead have re-
cently held meetings, and provoked a good deal of
speechifying, on the appropriation of some paltry items
of expenditure, and particularly against the unconsti-
tutional practice of taking lunch at the expence of the
parishioners!

H ATTON- GA R DE N.

Yesterday, a German Jew, who gave his name Michael Herman
Stroud, was charged with selling obscene snuffboxes.—A female
named Smith, who keeps a tobacconist's shop, in the neighbourhood
of Clerkenwell, stated, that the defendant came to her shop one day
last week, and asked her to purchase some snuff and other bows
which he had for sale; she declined, but told him her husband had
another shop in a different part of the town, and it he went there,
her husband might probably buy something of him. That morning
he again called whilst her husband was absent, and the again de-
sired him to come when her husband would be at home, as she was
no judge of such articles; he made no particular reply, but took
several boxes out of a bag, and displayed various obscene prints;
thinking he meant to insult her, she told him to leave the shop in-
stantly; but he refused, and abused her. She then sent to a neigh-
bour for assistance, who came and took him into custody.
Mr. Lauso asked the defendant If be had a license? and he re-
plying in the negative, the Magistrate told him that he subjected
himself to a fine of 101. for selling foods without one.
The defendant had little or nothing to say in extenuation of his
gross conduct, and the Magistrate discharged him. telling him that
if he ever was brought before hint again, be should inflict the pe-
nalty for selling without a license. '
Yesterday, Mr. R. Smith, a solicitor, residing at Calthorpe-street,
Brunswick-square, appeared to a summons for the payment of four
quarters' rate, £3 13s. id. levied on him by the Commissioners, for
paving, lighting, and cleansing the Caithorpe Estate District.
Mr. Hastings, the collector, stated, that the defendant resisted
the payment, though every other inhabitant of the street had sub.
mitred to it. Mr. Smith would, no doubt, admit that he bad
I already paid this same rate himself.
Mr. Smith was willing to admit that he bad, but then he had
paid it Li his own wrong. The fact was, thas to was summoned
for a paving rate, at a time that there was no carriage way in the
street. His objection was grounded on the words of the Act ut

SHEERNESS, SCTFMUR 18.

A melancholy accident happened here this morning.
A little boy, about Ave or six years of age, fell over.
board from the TIERRIBLi, of 74 guns, lying close to
the Dock-yard wall. His father, on seeing the acci-
dent, jumped overboard after him ; and, placing the
child on his back, was swimming towards a boat,
within a few yards of them, the boy's arms being
round his father's neck ; but by some unfortunate cir•
cumstance, the boy slid from off the father's back,
and his body came round to the parent's front, the child
still clinging round the father's neck, by which position
it is supposed the man could not use his arms to sup.
port himself and child in the eater, when they went to
the bottom together, the child with his arms still em-
bracing the father's neck, and never rose again. It
was full an hour, or hour and a half, before they were
grappled up, when every exertion was used and perse-
vered in for some time, to restore animation, by the
Surgeon and Assistant-Surgeon of the Deck yard, but
unhappily to no purpose.

The poor man's name was Gibson, and esteemed by
every one in the ship and in the Dock-yard, for his civil
and obliging disposition. We are sorry to add, that he
has left a wife and four children. This was the third
time Gibson jumped overboard to save this very child.

MARY LA-BONNE.

NWSam Long, the toll-collector at Pineapple Gate, Kilburn.rotd,
appeared on summons for an illegal demand of toll. The Local
Act provides, that a loaded cart passing the gate and paying tell,
shall pass free when it returns empty ; hut it does no: notice the
reversed order of going empty and returning loaded, which was the
practice with the complainant, a Mr. Norwood, a cow keeper, who
sends carts for his milk, and is obliged by the gate-keeper to pay
both going and returning.
The Magistrates held that the Legislature intended, although it
had not provided, that in such cases the party should pay but once.
This is the third decision the same way, but the cate is to be
carried to the Quarter Sessions.

Yesterday, Robert Dobbins, an old veteran, having a pension of
fd. a-day, for services in the Life and Coldstream Guards, was
brought to the bar, charged in the watch-book, by Peering, a ser-
geant of the watch, with having no place ofmktie.
Perring, not being in attendance to uphold his charge,
Mr. Rewumson asked the old soldier, how he came into the
watch-housed Why, Sir, as I stood gaping about last night. tie circa
that is sat here, tapped me on the shoulder, and said where do yoo
live? I said I don't know; he said I will find a place for you, chi
so he nude me go to the Watch-house.
Mr. Itewustsow, to the constable who brought him from the
watch.house—" I do not understand the practice of sergeants of
the watch giving a charge, and then not coming here to assign a
reason; was this person drunk, or do you know anything about i r
Constable--" He was not drunk, but he was in the street, and
sergeant Perrin' says he was Makin about him."
"That may be," said Mr. Itawusisox, 0 and if the system is
pursued, a nun may be locked up all night for looking at the moon."
Mr. flawlinson endeavoured in vain to find out the poor man's
residence,and asked him, among many other questions,w here he atilt
last ? to which he replied,with great readiness, " in the wat cli.housr."
Mr. Itevriausow—" That I know; and if I let you go, where
will you sleep to-night ?"
Dobbine--" I can't tell—T shall sleep wherever I can get a bed."
His other answers led Mr. Rawlinson to doubt the correctness
of his ntind and as there was a constable present, who had been his
old comrade in the Guards, and who spoke highly of his former con-
duct, Mr. Rawuesoe dismissed him,and desired the constable to in-
quire into his circumstances.

PEDESTRIAN FEAT.

A youthbf the name of William Barclay, from the neighbour.
hood of Aberdeen, apparently about 17 or it years of age, costa-
-1
Imenced a pedestrian task at Bowden, on Tuesday evening tam, at
Iseven o'clock. His attempt was to walk 110 miles in 24 successive
lhours over the roughly paved streets, at that place. He, however,
only aelomplished 109 miles and a half in the stated time, in the
performance of which he was dreadfully cut in his feet, and his legs
were very muck swollen. The attempt was not for any wager, and
he was only attended by a time-keeper. A collection amongst the
crowd assembled was the only reward of his voluntary exertions.
A respectable surgeon of that place kindly attended to his feet and
applied the proper dressings, and prescribed for him as so their futsre
treatment. We bear he has been performing in a similar manner
at Bridlington, liellayEate. We recollect a match for a considerable
sum about 30 years ago, when a man of the name of Yeoman,
walked 100 miles in forty hours, and it was then considered a very
.great feu!

HAMBURGH PAPERS.

EAST FRIESLAND, Snrioneint. s.

We hate now a pretty general view of the harvest in
the corn countries on the North Sea, from which it
appears that on the whole the harvest is much below an
average crop, and that of oats wore than it has been
for 50 years. Here (in East Friesland), where in good
years 24,000 lasts of oats are got in, we have this year
hardly 8,000. In the Dutch provinces of Gron'ngen
and Friesland, oats, in like manner, are not mote than
one-third of the usual crop.

CORN MARKET.--Wheat, for which 95 rix-dollars
were paid last week, was offered today at 90, but the
purchasers kept back, b?cause the last. English post did
not bring any orders at higher prices than those befole
fixed, which were lower than our market prices; and
also because, in the uncertainty respecting the result of
the harvest in England, and the expectation of supplies
from the Upper Elbe, the purchasers think they need
not be in a hurry.
IRTZ.—In consequence of the accounts from England, and the
bringing of many old stocks into the market, the prices have fallen,
but there has been a good demand.
BaaLry.—But little doing. New Barley, which Is asked for. is
not in the market, and old will not fetch a higher price than Oats.

ROME, Szerarmszti 13.

Our Readers must be surprised at reading the ac-
count of the rejoicings at Ancona, for the security ob-
tained for the Pontifical flag, by the provident care of
his Holiness, thanks to the powerful influence of his
Most Christian Majesty, just at the time when an Al-
gerine squadron, in those seas, with unlleard-of perfidy
and contempt of the rights of nations, molests t'le navi-
gation of the subjects of his Holiness, in spite of the
most solemn and repeated promises and declarations of
peace ; all alarm will, however, cease, when it is con-
sidered that such vile treachery secures us a speedy
reparation of our wrongs, by the interference of the
Monarch, our Protector, and will obtain a guarantee
which will not be violated in future:

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, Ocr.2.

.......60P••••-•
John Taylor, a youngmanof respectable appeartace,
stood indicted for assaulting Mrs. Winifred Pyne. .
Mrs. Pyne being called, deposed that she was return-
ing with her husband, from a visit, along the White-
chi!, 1-road, Algot 12 o'clock. at night, when the de-
fendal
t and another man came up to them, and the
defen ant, without saying a word, or receiving the
slightest provocation, raised his left arm, and struck her 1
a violent blow on the left temple, from the effects of
which, she reeled and fell backwarols on the ground...—
Her husband left her, to secure Ow priioner, and while
he Was absent a female came up and supported her.—
The blood was flowing profusely from the temple where
he struck her. On her husband's return, a coach Ivo
procured, in which she was conveyed home. A surgeon
was called in, under whose care she continued some time.
For thtee days she was confined to her bed.
Mr. Pyne corroborated this evidence.
Mr. ADOLPIIUS said, he was instructed by his client,
that the affair was entirely accidental on bis part ; that
himself and friend had been drinking freely, and that
the latter, out of a lark, had pushed him against the
Lady, and thus occasioned the injury now complained
of. He did not mean to justify the act of his client, (or
drunkenness could be no excuse for outrage ; he men-
tioned it only in extenuation.

The Jury foind him Cur74y.
The CHAIRMAN said it was a most atrocious case, and sentenced
him to three months' imprisonment.

John Latham was charged with an assault upon
W. Thomas. The assault being of the slightestiaature,
the Chairman fined the prisoner only 63.8 d.
The prosecutor left the Court, but after a short while
returned; and addressing the Court, stated that he had
been de t tined for 16s. 6d. fees.

The Catazusursaid, that it wu not on his (the Chairman's) ac•
count that he had been so detained.
Mr. PHILLIPS said, that prosecutors paid dearly for
seeking the protection of the law; it was, in fact, the
dearest commodity in England. He was afraid that it
was a very great inducement to people to take the law
in their own hands.
The CuatastAx said, that however he might regret it, he could
not alter the law. _ _ _ _

Prosecutor—How loog can I be detained for the non-payment
of the demand ?

Ceimaarax—For ever.

Prosecutor—Then I suppose the sooner I pay it the better.
Mr. Thomas then paid the fees, 121. of which went to the Jury,
and the remainder to the crier and other officers.

MARY-LA-BONNE.

Betas AT Farts.—Mr. Bryn's, proprietor and driver of one of
the St. Alban's coaches, was charged with carrying more passengers
than allowed by Act of Parliament. Martin, Byers's man, stated
that there were 11 persons on the coach on Thursday, and on Mon-
day the same number. Two of the passengers, Mr. Bryant said,
were children under seven years of age. Martin positively swore
to the contrary, but three respectable witnesses satisfactorily proved
the statement of the Informer to be wrong, they having stated that
the two persons were 14 or 15 years of age, while witnesses swore
that they were considerably under seven years of age.
Mr. RAWLINION said, the witness for the Informer was not to be
believed, and dismissed the defendant to the discomfiture of the
reedy Mr. Byers, who took the matter so much in dudgeon, that be
refused to pay the Office fees; and the Magistrate ordered that no
more Informations should be received from him till they were paid.
Mrs. Lent, a respectable looking woman, was charged with being
drunk and disorderly. She was given in charge by her husband,
but who did not appear against her. The watchman, it appears,
entered her house to take her into custody.
Mr. Rawlntsow said he was not justified in doing so ; if every
drunken Lady who abused her husband was liable to be locked up
in watchhosses, they would be full every night, and Magistrates
would have enough to do.—She was fined Ss. and discharged.

STOCKHOLM, Strrnim 19.

The State Gazette of yesterday contains his Majesty's
letter of the 31st ult. to the Bank Directors, requiting
the payment of 500,000 rubles, as the half of the mil-
lion granted by the Diet, to be employed in the purchase
of corn for the relief bf the indigent, in case of a consi-
derable, deficiency in the harvest, when private exertions
would not suffice to supply the want; the Gazette con-
tains also the answer of the Directors on the 14th Sep-
tember, acceding to his 'Majesty's desire.
Elfsborg, Skaraborg, and Wertnland, are the districts most in
need of a supply of corn.
Very recent accounts from St, Petersburgk uy, it was believed
there that Count Nesselrode will go as Ambassador to London;
and Count Capo d'lstria becoMe Minister of Foreign Affairs
in his stead.

ACKEKMANN, AUGUST 17.

At the distance of five versts from this town, there is
a fountain, which is the mote remarkable, as it seems to
diffuse around coolness and verdure, while all the adja-
cent tract is arid and covered with sand. This place is
how the constant promenade of the Turkish Plenipoten-
tiaries, who go thither sometimes alone, and more fre-
quently accompanied by a numerous suite. They appear
to find in this place a recollection of the fine calm
evenings of the Levant.
For some time past we have had here a company of
tumblers, under the direction of M. Ciabati. Hadi and
Ibrahim Efendi•have been several times to this exhibi
tion, which appears to give them much pleasure. On
these occasions, the places reserved for the Turkish
Negotiators are next to those of the Russian Plenipo-
tentiaries. Refreshments are presented; and the Turks
smoke during the whole of the performance. Tneir
pipes are handed to them by their Tcbeboukchis, with
all the luxury of Asiatic manners. Nothing can be
more striking than this mixture of different costumes
and manners, which appear to be mingled in a meet-
ing, t'le only object of which seems to be pleasure.

QUEEN-SQUABS
A Gentleman, directed by the American Consul, applied to the
Magistrate, in behalf of W. Winter, now in Tothill-Oclds Prison,
in consequence of being found in a dangerous position, outside the
balustrades of Westminster Bridge, as stated in our Paper of last
week. The Gentleman described his conduct as arising solely from
tem intoxication, and requested his discharge.
IF6e Magistrate observed, that if the American Consul would
write to him to that effect, it should be paid due attention to.
TOWN. HALL
Yesterday two boys, apparently not above twelve years of age,
Joseph WW I% and Charles Elates, were brought up before the sitting
Alderman, J. J. Spurn, Esq. charged by Isaac Levi, a broker,
wl:h stealing a gun, valued at it. 7s. his property.
On the prisoners being asked if they had anything to say for them-
selves, Whiffea's mother rushed forward, and. in the most moving
terms besought the Magistrate to pardon her son.
The Magistrate said, that it was entirely out of his power to do
so, and be must send them to the Sessions.
London, England, 1826-10-03

MA RLBOROUG 11-STREET.

A young man, about n 5 years of age in appearance, applied late
in the afternoon to Mr. CONANT, the Magistrate, to put him in the
way of obtaining some immediate relief, as he was destitute of all
means, and must perish through want, unless some assistance were
aforded him ; be had walked the streets, he said, for the last two
nights, having no place to lay his head down, and not a morsel of
food to allay the cravings of hunger.
Mr. CoLtwe asked what parish he had last slept in ?—He replied
he slept last, when he had a bed, in St. Giles's parish, but he really
was ashamed to name the house, it was so infamous a place ; but he
thanked Goa his murals bad not been corrupted, he only went to
sleep there, because all his money, except a few pence, had been
expended.
Mr. CONANT said, that it was a pity he had not come to the office
a little earlier, because be would then have seen the pariah officers
of St. Giles's, who would no doubt have relieved him ; he (Mr.
Coxam) really did not know what to do for him at that hour.—
The applicant said that If he could be disposed of in any way for
that night, either sent to some watch-house or prison, where he
could get a bit to eat, end a place to shelter him, he intended to go
the next morning to the Lord Mayor, to see and get a ship, or
something done for him. If he were in the streets for another
night, he feared something bad would happen to him.
Mr. Cows's? asked, as be spoke of a ship, if be belonged to the
sea-service? He replied, that he did, and had only been home a
few weeks from China, where he had gone ouf in the Bucking-
hamshire East Indiaman ; and he added, that although he was in
this destitute situation, his mother had been making a great noise
in this country. " How is that'" said Mr. C,oxaser. " Who is
your mother?" "My mother," said the young man, "is the
woman that calls herself the Princess Olive of Cumberland."—
1" What," said Mr. Count., "are you a son of the Lady who
styles herself Princess Oliver • I am, indeed, Sir," said the
applicant, " her own son, and a most unnatural mother she is, for
I went over to where she lives, the other side of the water, and
though she saw me from her indow, she towed up her head, and
would not recognise me."
"Is your father alive?" said Mr. Cower. " No, Sir," replied
the young man ; " my father was Mr. Anthony Askew, of Wins-
pole-street—at least so my mother told me—but he is dead ; his
brother, Mr. Andrew Askew, my uncle, still lives in Wimpole-
street, and I called there for some assistance, but was refused."
" L your name Askew, then ?" said Mr. Cower.
Applicant—l really don't know, Sir ;I do not think I was ever
christened ; but the name I have always gone by is Charles Wil-
mott, after my uncle, 31r. Char* Wilmott, of Coventry, the
brother of my mother.
Mr. Comas: ordered Plank, the chief officer, to give some pecu-
niary aid to the poor young man, to **stain him; until the next day,
when something would be done for him with the parish.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

MANSION-HOUSE.

The Justice Room was crowded yesterday, in expectation of
seeing Mr. Wilk*, and his late partner, Mr. Verbeke, pitted against
each other; but the parties were disappointed, because Mr. Wilks,
although he was present in the early part of the day, did not appear
on the investigation, but Mr. Alley attended on his behalf, and Mr.
Adolphus on the part of Mr. Verbeke.
After waiting nearly four hours, Mr. Alley, on the part of Mr.
Wilksi commenced, by observing that his client would have appear-
ed before his Lordship, and had actually been in attendance for that
purpose, but the heat of the room was so oppressive, as to prevent
his remaining there.
Mr. Alley then proceeded to ask whether Mr. Corrie, Mr. Ver-
beke, Mr. Mitchell, and other persons were h: attendance to answer
the complaint made on Thursday last by MI. Wilks?
It was answered that all were in attendance, excepting Dr. Mit-
chell, and he would be here shortly.
After some sparring between the Counsel, a long discussion en-
sued as to what was the real question before his Lordship, and at
length it was determined that all the affidavits that had been Sled
amounted to nothing ; and, therefore, the 1.011111 1111Avos. stopped the
matter short, by saying that he would proceed on the former testi-
mony given vim owe, and the deposition of Mary Cuthbert, the ser-
vant of Mr. Wilke, was read.
Mr. Mohler then read the former testimony, and all the parties
were called upon to end bail for a riot, and also to keep the peace.
Mr. Alley contended that there was not any proof of riot.
The Loan Mavoa thought there was.
The parties were then held to bail to answer the complaint.
Mr. Mils, the proprietor of the Fortune of War public-house, in
Giltspur-street, was charged with knowingly harbouring and con-
cealing some India silk handkerchiefs in his house. The penalty
sought was 1001.
The Custom-house Officer stated, that en the 224 of April he
went to the house of the defendant; He saw Mrs. Mills, and told
her he wanted to search the house, u be believed there were con-
traband goods In it. She offered no objection, and upon going up
stairs into the club room, which was open, he saw en the table a
bundle of silk handkerchiefs. The possession of handkerchiefs of the
kind was at that time against the law. That was not the ease now.
The 'AID MAros said be was of opinion that it was not likely
that the landlord knew anything at all about the handkerchiefs, or
they would not have been left in an open reom.
Alderman Lucas thought that it would be a dangerous principle
to act upon, as that sort of defence would, in all probability, be
made by nine out of ten of those who were guilty.
The Lou: MAroa--Well, we must only dismiss the case. We
cannot agree. I refuse to give judgment.
