LONDON LAW AND POLICE COURTS.

EXPLOSION AT TUNLlvli.RpooLPoiToPvicc—Boiti-STRICIIT,
—On Saturday, the' Spaniard, Gotnez Pelayo; who is charged
on suspicion of having transmitted some letters through the
Postoffice containing some fulminating silver, or souse other
combustible, was again placed at the bar.—Mr. Peacock, the
solicitor to the Postollice, said it was not his intention to oder
any further evidence against the prisoner at this offce, but he
bad to pray the magistrates would' Send the prisoner to Liver-
pool, waere it was intended to prefer an indictment- hgainst him
at the sessions for the misdemeanour alleged against him.—Mr.
Minshull said that there could not be any objeCtion to this, and
desired that the prisoner might be' made acquainted with' the
nature of the application. This having been complied with,tbe
prisoner inquired how long it, would he before the trial took
place, and was informed that the sessions would commence on
Monday week. The' prisoner declared that he saw no reason
why he should be sent to Liverpool. He was perfectly innocent
of the charge, and thought that it might be investigated as well
in London. In order- that the prisoner might not plead igno-
rance of the'charge. it was recapitulated to hirn at length.—Mr.
Miushull said that all the loose English money found on the
prisoner might be given to him, and if he wanted any further
sum to procure counsel for his defence, it Would be handed over
to him in lieu of the Spanish gold money found on him. The
prisoner was then removed from the bar, and was subsequently
conveyed to the House of Correctioh. The offence for which
he will be indicted, it is utideritood, will not subject him to a
capital penalty, but he will be charged with a Misdemeanour
only, undeK the act of parliament usually called Lord Ellen-
borough's act.

LONDON AND GREENWICH RAILWAY.

This splendid undertaking, one of the finest specimens of
modern architecture, and an ornament to the metropolis, is fast
progressing towards completion, and will be thrown open to the
public on the first of nekt month. Experiments have been
made during the last six months for the purpose of trying the
strength of the arches, nearly one thousand in number, the re-
sult of which has confirmed the high opinion previously enter-
tained of Mr. M'lntosh, the contractor, as not the slightest
vibration occurs while the trains are running. The completion
of the' railway has been delayed by the unfortunate disputes
which have arisen between the contractors for the iron work
and their workmen, causing a few mouths suspension of the
traffic which'the railway would otherwise have received bad it
been opened at the time contemplated; The proprietors will,
however, be speedily remunerated for this temporary delay by
the great and unexpected accession of income likely to accrue
from the various other lines of railway about to be connected
with the Greenwich, some of which, viz , the' 'Deptford Pier,
Croydon and Dever, have already obtained the legislative sane-
tion and commenced operations, whilst others, the Brighton;
Kent, and Westminster projected Railways, will -doubtless
obtain their acts of parliament next session ; to' all which
must be added 'the expectation of a very considerable • re,
venue from the arches, as well as the toll fair foot passengers
over the railway, ceimprising altogether a vtuiety of• resources
common to no other railway in the kingdom.

WAKEFIELD MARKET, DEC. 9,

Owing to the boisterous weather and high water, we'have a short
supply of all Grain fresh up to this day's market, but many samples
are offering from vessels that will he here in a day or two. Wheat
has met a dull sale for all descriptions at a decline of 2s quarter.
Oats scarcely support the rates of lastYriday. Very fine Barley nearly
maintains last week's prices. but all other sorts go off slowly at a re-
duction of is 4' quarter. Beans are dull of sale and cheaper.

MEETING OP THE LIVERPOOL TRADESMEN'S CONSER-
VATIVE ASSOCIATION.—We beg to draw the attention of
our readers to the important meeting held last evening
at the large room of the King's Arms. We have no
space for any comments on the proceedings in this day's
publication; but we shall revert to the topic on Friday.

FOREIGN MISCELLANY.

The gigantic balloon will ascend from Paris. It is with
great pleasure we announce this gratifying fact. The enter-
prising spirit of the gentlemen more immediately interested
deserves the encouragement they will now command; and it is
worthy the cause of scientific research that this balloon of
balloons should bear our countrymen from the continental
capital under the illustrious sanction of His Royal Highness
the Duke of Orleans. The prince viewed this vast aeronautic
machine from the Hotel de Ville on Tuesday, and yesterday
Mr. Gye was honoured with a communication from General
Bernard, the Minister at War, to the effect that in consequence
of the recommendation of his Royal Highness the Duke of
Orleans, government accorded him the free use of the infantry
barracks in the Faubourg Poissoniere, for the purpose of his
ascent. The day of ascent and price of tickets ha.. e not yet
been fixed.

A serious quarrel has taken place between Messrs. Rothschild
and the government of Madrid, on occasion of the damage done
to the mines of Almaden, nearly destroyed by the last expedi-
tion of Gomez. After many conferences without result, with
the ambassador of Spain at Paris, who had not special advice
to negociate as to this matter, and after a vain demand of re-
ference to arbitration desired by the bankers, the eldest brother
of the Rothschild family has decided on proceeding to Madrid,
to require indemnity, and his departure for that capital is daily
expected.
The Belgian and Dutch papers bring melancholy accounts of
the destruction occasioned by the hurricane on all parts of the
coast. Prince Alexander, son of the Prince of Orange, was
seriously hurt by the falling of a tree, but has since recovered.
T e Court of Hanover went into mourning for Charles X. on
the 2Sth ult., for four weeks. The Court of Bavaria has also
gone into mourning for three weeks from the 29th ult.
Several journals have recently asserted that the Emperor
Nicholas had betrayed signs of insanity; and, if the reports "f
travellers may be credited, the statement is not altogether with-
out foundation.—French paper. •
The marriage of King Otho with the Princess of Oldenburg
was celebrated at Oldenburg on the 22d.
A letter from Carlsruhe states that a credit had been opened
for Prince Polignac at a large banking house there.
FRENcti PACKET STATION.—The statements in the English
journals of the intended removal of the French post-office
packet station, from Dover to Ramsgate, are unfounded ; no
such change being in contemplation by the government.—
Galignani.
The French journals mention that Count Mold was engaged
in negociating a marriage between the Duke of Orleans and the
Princess Josephine Frederika Louisa of Bavaria; but Ls
&eels supposes that this project must be renounced, because of
foreign influence inimical to the Orleans family.

BARBA DOES.

The Barbadoes papers OfOct.v
2lth state that the scarcity of
provisions which had been complained of in several of the colo-
nies seemed also to extend to Trinidad, the apprenticed labourers
in that colony neglecting, as they had -done in this and several
others, the pounds allotted to them for cultivation in lieu of
provisions. They also stated that the new governor ( M'Gre-
gor) had summoned the Council and Assembly to meet him.

NEW SOUTH WALES.
—A
correspondent of the Times says. " a Catholic bishop has
been officially sent out to the colony of New South \Vules by
the government— that he is elevated to the same importance as
the clergy of the Church of England, and receives the same
support. Everything, in short, is en train to make this a Roman
Catholic colony. In the schools the system is to he founded on
the Irish model, and in deference to the Catholics the Bible is
to be wrested out of the hands of the Protestant children. The
whole of the Protestants are rallying round their own bishop,
and the Governor denounces publicly their opposition to be a
defamtion of the British government. The greatest irritation
and ill-feeling exist." The New South \Vales papers just re-
ceived contain statements of animated proceedings having taken
place in the Legislative Assembly on the proposition (submitted
in pursuance of despatches from Lord Glenelg) to adopt the
plan for general or colonial education established for Ireland.
Its adontion was carried by eight to four, the Colonial Secre-
tary, (Nl'Leay,) however, being in the minority. It was under-
stood that the plan was to be carried into effect by a Board con-
sisting of seven members, three of the Church Establishment,
two Roman Catholics, (the Protestant and Catholic bishops to
be members,) and two Presbyterians. At the ensuing meeting
of the Assembly a petition was presented from the Bishop of
Australia, praying to be heard before the Council against the
proposed grant of money towards the establishment of national
schools upon the system of those of Ireland; but the clerk was
required to inform the bishop that the rules of the Council did
nut admit of his being heard in person, as prayed for.

MA NCH ESTER MARKET, DEC. 10.

Of all descriptions of Grain, the imports from Ireland and coast,
wise are still on a very moderate scale, but of Flour they again ex-
ceed 11,000 sacks, and of Oatmeal upwards of 5000 loads are reported.
Owing to the boisterous state of the weather the arrivals into Wake-
field are small. The trade has been in a languid state throughout the:
week, both millers and dealers appearing vc..zy reluctant to increase
their stock, and sales only have been made by submitting to.reduced
rates. At our market this morning there was rather more confidence
than previously, yet although we reduce our quotations for Wheat
fully 2ctAr 70th, and Flour 2s to 3s ,ty' 280 lb, there was by no means a
free sale for either article.—Oats may he noted as on, this day se'n-
night, but Oatmeal was offered full 6.1 4f,' load lower, 37s <tP 240 Th be-
ing atop quotation. Beans were in limited request and rather lower,
and Malt was dull of sale at a decline of is 4? load.—The late high
prices at which Irish and other fine Butters have been selling, seem
to have operated materially on the consumptive demand, and have
had the consequent effect on the dealers during this and the several
previous weeks, the business done has been on the most limited scale,
at a reduction of fully 2s cwt on the currency of this day se'nnight.
Liverpool, Merseyside, England, 1836-12-13

Mr. Hall —" Then the information is not within the act of par-
liament." .Discharged.
AN INGENIOUS DEFENCE.—Yesterday at the police-office,
two girls named Elizabeth and Mary Armstrong, were placed
before the Magistrates charged with having stolen a quantity of
clothes from a house in Fazakerly-street. Dock constable, No.
31, deposed that he was returning home from duty in Fazakerly-
street, when he beard an. alarm given that a house had been
broken open. He went into an empty house in next door to
the one which was broken into and on going up stairs he found
the two prisoners there endeavouring to conceal themselves.—
A woman who followed him found a bundle of clothes down
stairs. The occupier of the house which had been broken into
deposed to the clothes being hers. Her house had been entered
by bieaking, a pane of glass in the window and removing the
window fastener. The prisoner Eliza Armstrong, on being
asked what she had to say in defence said, that her brother had
given her some money on Saturday night, and the night before
they met bhn in Oldhall-street, drunk, when he asked them to
give him some of the money he had given them on Saturday
night, to which they replied they had not got any. He then
told them if they did not give him some money he would
" lick'em." They said, "don't lick us in the street, wait how-
ever till you get home," and they ran down the street and into
the empty house for safety. As they went in, a woman ran out
and ran against them and they knew nothing whatever of the
clothes. The officer said they denied the robbery when taken.
Mr. Hall ordered them to be remanded and he would consider
what to do with them.
Roaneev.—Yesterday at the Police-office, two women named,
Mary Anne and Ellen Quilliah, were placed at the bar on a
charge of robbing the warehouse of the St. George's Steam-
packet Co. The case was remanded from Saturday to afford
tlme for the attendance of a witness from Manchester. Police-
man, No. 5, deposed that on Friday last, he stopped the two
prisoners and a lad in Scotland Road, with some fustian and
two pieces of counterpane. He asked the woman who was car-
rying the bundle to let him look at what it contained, as he
knew the lad to be of bad character. Whilst he was examining
the bundle the lad made his escape. As they could not give a
satisfactory account of the things contained in the bundle, he
took them into custody. A warehouseman of the Steam-packet
Co. deposed to their warehouse having been broken open on
Thursday night, and some bales containing goods similar to
those found on the prisoners having been taken from them.—
A young man from Manchester, in the employment of Messrs.
Potter & Co., deposed to selling the goods to Messrs. Gibbon
& Co., of Dublin, on the 20th of last month, and that those
were a part of the goods he had so sold; he had not, however,
seen them packed and sent to the Railway, and the case was
accordingly further remanded to allow the opportunity for the
attendance of the packers of the goods.
