*parting intelligence. THE DONCASTER SEPTEWIER MEETING. TO TEE ZDTPOR OP THE EXPIRES. Si •,—Favourites may be " finn" enough, and integers wofully at a discount, hut still there is no eu genic; against a St. Leger surprise, the doings of the past few days having been quite in keeping with those earlier on, and which so deservedly give P , e'a the appellative of the Outsider,' Year. Only at York, Beesvrtog told us how met .1 certainties could be bowled over ; and again, last wee .'s ieturna f a irly make out that a " donkey " might do the trek ma Wednesday next, Goodwood having beaten Goinera at a stone in the Warwick Cup, and he in turn nace.:nibing to a Yarmouth Plater called Aasinehoiee at According to this " paper" measurement, the latter could heat the Duke of Beaufort's mare at about 711. ast now ; so that he is bound to win the Se ll inger, becifuse he is a 211 b better horse—on the Ebor form—than Cfaaeuve ! What a pity he was not in the Cessrewitch and CAlibridpshire at :Jet 71b, just to make things easy fe backers, who—as regards these races—confess themselves to be sorely puzzled where to look for the " pea." though the Admiral Les not been No ban: or their early investments as usual. Some in-and oat I.e, formers lave caught it rather wane—Stmthconan, De le same, and Rama to wit—as also one or two of the niyhteriocs division, Merry Christian actually giving weil;fit tolllinkhoolie ; still, Usurper, Annourer.Pototuac, Sportsman, the Maid of Mecham filly, and others we are supposed only to have seen the worst side of, have been altmst turned loose in the long race ; whilst Blinkhoolie and Lily Vane have got no more than their backers pro vided fo, ; hence the handicaps give general satisfaction. How they will look a week hence is hard to tell. as there may he some inure Assineboine—Goodwood Gowen per- Lien:maces at Doncaster, though it is to be hoped some thing more reliable than the running of this trio will turn up. Goodwood has &lisp' been a most uncertain gentle man. and Gower,. too. may have suddenly gone back to the very middling form she displayed before winning the Gueslwood Stakes and showing herself a tirstmlases mare in the Great Ebor ; but anyhow it will not do to believe in half what the pair did last week, or we should have totake 5 to 2 about Assineboine for the St. Leger. The latter may not even start, the prestige of the two favourites lining so grout that their real opponents are net expected to muster wore than hslf-a-dozen strong, though the majority will have their partizans , and as much inteleat will be taken in the contest as in the olden time, when they used to get between twenty and thirty under anima. The other features of the Doncaster September Meeting will also hold their own, and keep the excitement up from beginning to end, the Champagne Stakes, one of the crack 2 yr-old events of the season, never before having lookul wore " open." This will be the great card on Tee elay, many being anxious to learn how klanteluke, Be! thorn.), Thunderstonu, Mercury, and Ironniaster have progressed since they figured in public so backward in pre widen. They were never disgraced, and hence ought to shine some day when thoroughly wound up, even Blue Gown and Rosicrucian having to fear them, to say nothing of Vale Royal There are many popular characters opposed to these, on paper, that have not been out yet, and among them Typhoeus, Pace, Talk o' the Hill, and Glenelerg ; but I do not anticipate seeing any drbiitant at the post better than Virtue, who, as both illue Gown sad itosecrueian have been in queer street, must chalice, though Ironismater or kLameluke look the more a trustworthy allies, if Sir Joseph's pair should not have fully recovered their " form." The Great Yorkshire Handicap, another feature, will be worth about a thousand pounds, and hence all the supposed good things ought to run. Bradainiente, (Auer, East Lane-leads - 0, Miss Marriott., Monitrees, Mandrake, Thalia, Wild Briar, the Priest, Padnlhah. and Sod le, were all supported for what seemed " good money " until the pencil fever attacked Miss Har riette and MMltress, and left Seville and East Lancashire in the front. If Seville is really better than her stable companion, N'iridis, at the weights, and can stay the course, she can hardly lose ; however, not being quite certain of this, and believing East L ancashire is a mach superior horse to Success, who won the Leicestershire Handicap with Mt 12th, I shall give the preference to Mr. Idich's old Ogle. who may have as much to fear from the Priest as aaything, supposing Thalia to be in mime fur the Cam bridgeshire litmus. Athena may stay well enough to beat Idalia for the Filly Stakes ; and Cecrops should very nearly win the Revival, the Mayonaise filly the Doncaster Plate, Donaldbain the Glasgow, and Nike the Match. The St. Leger is not the only plum worth picking on Wednesday. The Municipal is a rich stake the Parson ought to secure, and ttedivivus and HUSlliall Bear in the Handicap Sweepstakes, with Corporal and Icicle in the . Oorration Plate, will probably be expected to bring grist to the mill. The great event, it is the universal opinion, is reduced to a match ; and all there is really to fear by those who are laying their odds on Hermit and Achieve xneut is the way l'auban performed at Ascot, when be ran clean away from Marksman, Colonel Peen-sec's filly, and Julius. Giving the latter Mb and " losing" him was no joke, even allowing the other two were all amiss, anti in no condition to run at all ; Kral had Vauban not succumbed to Achievemeut at York he would now be a great favourite, for WI staying qualities have been fairly tested, and he is welldigain as any horse could be. However, it can hardly be doubted that Hermit fairly beat him in the Derby, and the beat his friends can my of him is that he should get a " place" in the following field : Jockey. Jockey. Achievement Chaßoner. I Mandrake Cameron, Blinkhosile Challenge Cannon. Palmer Wells. Yervammes Osborne. Tarahan C'arrolL Hermit Cunene.). Tynn.laid - Ines Kalna Van Amino& French .. . ' .. . _ Julius poky. Vaubau ruralise° Mr. Johnstone may not start both Mandrake and Tyne dale, and with Hermit to represent him Mr. Chaplin ought to reserve his Cesarewitch horse, Blinkboolie, for the Don easter Stakes on Friday. Then Ines will only be running to assist her companions, Challenge and Vauban ; and, agiit seems useless for either Lord Glasgow or Sir Joseph Hawley to start anything, with the Miss Sarah colt and Palmer their cracks. The latter will be more useful looking after the minor affairs, like Tibthorpe, Verulam, Kidderminster, end others that will be on the ground; and the actual list of competitors may be safely reduced to nine, vie., Hermit, Achievement, Vauban, Jelin', Chal lenge, Fervacques, Taraban, Van Atuburgh, and Man drake. As in Caller Ou's year, we are promised a doable race between Achievement and Hermit for the first prize, and Vauban and Julius for a " place." Both issues look very near things, the many days rest they were compelled to allow Vauban after York to prevent his " going" altogether giving Julius a fair chance of revenging the many defeats he has sustained at his hands. It is rather ominous for the backers of the Two Thousand hero that the Marquis of Hastings has backed Challege for a " bumper^ since his return into favour, a movement that would be worth following were there not such wonders in the race as Hermit and Achieve ment. Between these the throw must be made, for all the strange things that have happened in '67, and a more even match never appeared on paper, the defeat of the oolt on the only occasion of his meeting The Flyer having been partially wiped out by his extraordinary performance when dead amiss (") in the Derby. But whether it is from having seen Imperieuse fly past the chair a winner, after a most chequered summer career, or from sheer gal lantry, I incline most decidedly to the lady, whose jockey has fought three head-and-head battles for the St. in two of which he came off best, and must know every inch of the ground. Plenty of sport will be found on the "off day," when there is a mile 2-yr-old race to decide (the 10 soya Sweepstakes), that the previous doings at the meeting of Mameluke, Athena, Roeicrucian, Mercury, Thunderstorm, lronmaster, &c., may not quite reduce to a certainty. The Earl, in the same interest as the two first-named, is a rare glutton, and it will take a rum 'um to upset him if he is in the field, whatever may win the Champagne. ' Seville is well in the Cleveland Handicap, but not so safe to stand, pending the Great Yorkshire Handicap, as Kidderminster, Castanet being another threatening can didate. The Portland Plato is a more epee race still, all I can make sure of being that the Lord Weettuor. land interest will be worthily represented, whether by Icicle, Tibthorpe, or anythin else ; that Skylark, last year's winner, will be "al l there" again; and that the friends of Sir Oliver, Minster Bell, and Wolsey ought to try their hands at bringing off • grand coup. The Eglinton, a mile race for twee and threes, must find Friponnier in the van, and the same stable will he worth standing for the Scarborough Stakes with Knight Errant and the Zetland with Verulam. The most important of Friday's races—the Cup—will not close until Monday evening ;but I may venture to say that Beeswing ought to enter and win, unless a great three•year old should turn up that is, like herself, unpenalised. The Doncaster Stakes may prove to be a match between Blink hooli• and Vauban (or anything engaged that can beat the Litter iu the St. Leger), but the other three-year-old events are in a nutshell, for already The Hermit is a moral" in the 200 nova. Sweepstakes, whilst Ines has pot a very hard task set her in the Park Hill, and The Don is but a question of Fripoenier beating V iridis. The new sweep stakes is open enough now ; yet by the time Mameluke, Blue Gown, Rosicrucian, Thunderstorm, The Parson, and Ironmaster are " run through," it will have a very dif ferent complexion, though Court Mantle and Michael de Basco should cut in against the best of this bunch.—l am, he., METEOR. TATTERSALL'S.-SATUR DAY. The opening of the Subscription-room today was not very numerously responded to, and as among those present there was a conspieuoua dearth of backer., specu lation proved .somewhat dull. For the Great Yorkshire Handicap, Seville was honoured with the premiership, layers offering no more than 5 to 1 against her, but no one seemed inclined to accept this price ; neither was there any disposition evinced to take the 6 to 1 offered against East Lancashire, although these odds had been accepted with avidity at the clubs a short time previously. Priest was a good deal inquired after, but bookmakers generally appeared to hold him in wholesome dread, nearly everyone refusing to name a price, and it was a matter of great difficulty to make out his exact position ; as, however, 9 to I was accepted about him before the close of business, it was fair to infer that he had met with a large amount of support through unseen channels. One speculator, famous for backlog lots against the field, furnished an interesting episode in the betting on this race, by laying 200/. even on five hones—namely, Seville, East lan: mahire, Prkst, Bradamante, and Padiahab, and the same gentleman supplemented this transaction by laying 50 to 5 that one of the lot would be first favourite. Speculation on the St. Leger exhibited the ',tole peculiarity that has characterised it of late—that is to say, the two favourites nionorolised the market, and although other candidates were occasionally mentioned no actual blow was struck in favour of any one of them. As regards the relative posi tions of the two favourites there was to-day no change. Hermit steldily maintained his pre-eminence, and cot • fraction more than sto 4 was laid or o ff ered ihroughout the afternoon. Meanwhile Achievement was not wanting friends, and the hostility to which she had been subjected elsewhere was not put into motion at Albert-gate. At 2 to 1 she found ready supporters, a popular baronet taking WO to :iOO, at other of her friends 200 to 100, while other partisans of humble degree made with alacrity their invest ments at a like rate. Liberal odds were at the same time laid on each of the favourites for a " situation," Hermit exacting as much as 3 to 1, and Achievement sto 2. From the undermentioned quotations it will be gathered that Vauban, Julius, and Challenge were in turn inquired for, and would have been backed but for the dis erpriney in the estimate of their market status that existed between layers and beakers. With respect to Vauban it may be mentioned that there appears to be, day by day, some of the old liking returning for him, and according to present appearances there is every probabi lity of his seeing a much shorter price 'ere the flag falls. Already the Duke of Beaufort's colt is greatly fancied for • place, as evidenced by the fact of the disproportionate price of 3to 2 being readily accepted. Notwithstanding the recent appearance of the Cesarewitch and Cambridgeshire weights we did not observe anything backed for either race. For the first-named event 20 to 1 was offered on the field, while the " lot fancier" previously mentioned took :I.: horse.' against the field for, we believe , an even 1,000. The Derby was not mentioned, and the afternoon's proceedings came to an early close, with the following results : THE EXPRESS, MONDAY CONFESSION AND ABSOLUTION. The following is an extract from the oxamina tion of the Bey. A. 1). Wagner's evidence before the Ritual Commission : Archbishop of Canterbury—You @peke of confession ; I think you acknowledge you practise confession !—Yes ; I am always at the church for three days a week during certain hours for the purpose of hearing confessions, or of giving spiritual advice, as the case may be. Have you a confessional?—No, I hear them is the vestry. Do you require them to confess periodically—l do not require anybody to *mile's. It is quite voluntary on the part of everyone. Do you exhort them to confess ?—I have spoken of it as a great spiritual blessing, and advised people to confess. Mr. J. Abel Smith—Are penances imposed!- Whenever a person makes a confession, of course there is always some penance enjoined; it may be saying a prayer. It usually would be saying some one or two prayers. It would be one's duty to impose some penance or other. Mr. Beresfordliope—Do you impose any penance involv ing corporal pain?—lt is not, perhaps, a question one ought to speak about. I have never myself, certainly, imposed any such penance, but I cannot say as to others. Earl of Hartnwby—What form of absolution do you use —The one in the N natation of the Siok. ifr:i.ii;lirniic-I;Oi.xiiaWaysWeer. a surplice when you receive confession !—Always, and a stole. THE PROPOSED V OLC NTEER BA LL. —The volunteer ball, which bad been advertised for the 11th inst. at the Agricultural-hall, at Islington, is fixed to take place on Wednesday, the 25th inst. This has arisen from the filing of an injunction on the part of the Agricultural-ball Com pany against the Messrs. J. Defries and Sons, as lessees, to prevent such ball taking place. The Agricultural-hall at Islington was leased for the purpose of giving • grand re ception ball and concert to the Belgians who recently visited this country, and also for • subsequent series of concerts and balls, the ball company to be paid, in addition to a sum down, by • per centage or royalty upon all tickets sold or moneys taken. In accord mice with the programme, the Messrs. Defries, who fitted up and decorated the ball, and who carried out the Belgian ball and first concert under contract with the Belgian Reception Committee, under arrange ment with a special volunteer committee announced a national volunteer ball to take place at the Agricultural hall, under the patronage of Prince Teck, the Secretary of State for War, and • number of military and volunteer authorities. The Agricultural-hall Company, however, have no license for dancing, and have given notice of their intention to make an application to the next October am *dons for • dancing as well as music license. This being the came, they applied for an injunction to restrain the Messrs. Defries from holding this volunteer ball, on the alleged pound that the hall not possessing a dancing license, the interest; of the company would be prejudiced in such application for a dancing license, were they to permit this iball to take place without such license. The reply to this was that, if there was any illegality in the matter, the company had already infringed the law by per mitting the Belgian ball to take place without a dancing license. The application for the injunction having taken place during vacation, was appointed by Vice-Chancellor Malin. to be heard at the Angel Inn, Godalming, Surrey, on Thursday last. The Agricultural Hall Company were represented by Mr. Napier Higgins, and the defendants by Mr. Swanston. Mr. Higgins remarked that the Hall Com pany did not stand upon their strict rights in refusing to permit the Belgian Ball, because they considered it a national affair, and that it was patronised by all the prin cipal authorities, which was not the case with respect to theproposed volunteer ball. He even went so far as to assert that the lists of patrons published were fictitious, and if they were not they were persons of no importance. Mr. Swanston, to rebut and show the incorrectness of this state ment, handed in the letters of the patrons placing their names on the lists, including those of Prince Tech the Secretary and Under-Secretary of State for War ; Colonel Erskine, Inspector-General of Volunteers ; the hand writing of some of which the Vice-Chancellor personally raised. In reply to the allegation that the permitting this would prejudice the chance of the hall company in obtaining a dancing license at the quarter sessions, the counsel for the defendants banded to the Vice-Chancellor letters signed by Mr. H. Povniall, Sir W. H. Bodkin, assistant-judge, and nearly 50 other county magistrates, expressing their approval of the volunteer ball being held. The Vice Chancellor, upon this evidence, expressed his opinion that this volunteer ball was as much a national affair as the Belgian ball, and, being under the same management, ought to take place. He, therefore, not only declined to grant the injunction, but desired that his opinion should be expressed to Sir It. Ma i n clirwrwEtt MOVEMENTS.—On Saturday after noon the let Surrey Artillery Volunteer Corps, under the command of Colonel Durnford,. was o ffi cially inspected on Tooting-common. The inspec ting officer expressed his full satisfaction with all he had witnessed, and said he should have the pleasure of reporting in favourable terms to the War-office, at the same time desiring the commanding officer so to report the brigade. The St. George's Rifles on Saturday competed for the battalion prizes at Wormholt Scrubbs. There were four series, and the usual "un known prizea," and the shooting lasted the whole day. The prizes are contributed by the wealthy inhabitants of the district represented by the corps. It was officially notified to the Finsbury corps on Saturday that the Queen has been pleased to approve of Captain Williams, an officer who has seen urnse abroad in the army, being the future lieutenant-colonel of the corps. Colonel Wil liams was captain of the English Twenty when rifle-shoot ing was young, and be takes the command of the corps with the warm approval of every member. He will he officially inducted into the command of next Saturday evening, when the corps %gin musters after the holidays. OPENING OP THE MIDLAND EXTENSION RAIL WAY.—The Midland Extension Railway, from Bedford to London, which has been in course of construction for the last three years, will be opened for goods traffic today. It is expected that an immense amount of merchandise will at once pass over it, and the company have accordingly made every arrangement for the vast business they will have to deal with. Yesterday a small special train left the St. Pancras goods depot at a little after twelve o'clock, and proceeded to Bedford, for the purpose of practically familiarising the working officials of the new line with the duties they will have to perform, more especially in con nection with the signals. The engine, a very powerful one, was driveniby hlr. Jackson, locomotive manager at the St. Pancras station, and in the train there were Mr. E. M. Needham, the traffic manager ; Mr. Burn, locomotive manager; Mr. R ams , locomotive superintendent; Mr. Boylan, goods manager of the London district ; Mr. Har rison, of Derby ; Mr. Ralph Firbank, representing Mews. Firbank and Co., contractors for a portion of the works; Mr. Frederic Campion. the resident engineer ; and a number of guards and engine drivers. The train proceeded at a rapid rate past the stations in course of construction at Camden-town, Kentizh- Town, and Haverstoek-hill, and through the tun nel, upwards of a mile in length, which runs under Hampstead. At the Finehley-road the open country is reached, and from that point the line traverses one of the most picturesque districts out of London. There are stations at Child's-hill, Hendon, Mill-hill, Entree, Alden ham, St. Albans, Harpenden, Luton, Leegrave, Harling ton, and Amptbill, and at all of these the train was stoPped, and the signals carefully examined. Some parts of the permanent way have only been fi nished during the last week, but the travelling throughout was remarkably smooth, and the line was declared by those who passed over it to be of admirable construction, end quite ready for the vast amount of traffic which it is about to receive. As already announced, the passenger traffic cannot yet be accommodated, but from the rapid Ormaking at all the stations and at the terminus, s-cress, it is thought that the complete opening of the extension line will take place early next year. It will open up • country but little known to Londoners, and between the metropolis and Bedford there will be but two tunnels, an advantage which season ticket holders will not fail to appreciate. The train reached Bedford at about half-past four in the afternoon, and after a abort stay returned to town, arriving at St. Pancras at about seven o'clock. Some part of the ground was run over atthe rate of about forty miles an hour. THE LATE FATAL VOYAGE ACROSS THE ATLANTIC. —A Wexford correspondent, writing on Friday, says:— "The adventurous little craft John T. Ford, from Bel timers to Paris, rid Havre, the story of whose disastrous voyage has already appeared, came ashore at Tactirashane, on the southern coast of this county, this morning. The papers, which were enveloped in • tin case, remain tin injured. The vessel, notwithstanding the great knocking about to which she has evidently been subjected, still retains one mast standing, and her hull holds firmly to gether. This tiny craft, as already mentioned, is only 2j tons burden. Her measurement is 2415 feet in length, 7 . 40 in breadth, and 215 in depth. She was rigged as a schooner, and has a sharp stern and figure-head. The following note, written in ink on a piece of ruled paper, was picked up this morn ing by Richard M'Bride, west of the Forlorn Point, about ten miles westward of where the vessel came ashore : Friday, Friday, 23rd August..—Andrew Armstrong was taken off the wreck of the John T. Ford, and has gone to Bombay in the Aerolite.—R. E. ALLEYNE. Old Head, Mamie, N.N.W. 39 miles.' The letter floated ashore in • bottle. The tin ease which contained the ship's papers enclosed also several letters from officers on board H.M.S. Royal Alfred, lying at Halifax, and some photographs. They are thoroughly wet, but are, notwithstanding, in excellent preservation." FIRE AT BIRNINGHA M. —On Saturday morning, between five and six o'clock, a fire was discovered on the premieesof Mesas. Tarpleeand Gardner, timber-merchants, Bukerville-place. It was nearly three hours before it was got completely under. The amount of property destroyed has been estimated at 3,090/. CANDIDATE POE A MEDAL.—On Saturday, a lady wad standing on one of the breakwaters at Margate when she suddenly fell into the sea. She sank twice before any assistance could be rendered, when Mr. James Toole, son of Mr. Frank Toole, the toutmuter, jumped in and gal lantly rescued her as ahe was sinking, and conveyed her on shore. The 2nd battalion 60th Rifles embark this day at Portsmouth on board the steam transport Crocodile for Calcutta. Several other officers proceed in the same ship to joie their respective corps.

A large and influential muster assembled at the clubs to day, business was accordingly brisk, and several important movements eventuated in the course of the morning. For the Great Yorkshire Handicap Seville was at one bound promoted to the post of first favourite, one speculator offer raga to take 300 to 100 about her ; layers however were shy, and the utmost odds forthcoming were 9to 2. This offer was not responded to, and nothing was done. Directly Bto I was offered against East Lancashire, 800 to 100 wee booked, then 500 to 75, while subsequently 6 to I was taken to a good deal of money, and from first to last little short of 1,0001. could have gone on. Monitress, who opened at 10 to 1 taken, was speedily sent to the right about. 20 to 1 being shortly afterwards laid against her, and that by the speculator who had just previously accepted 10's. Miss Harriette had also a bad time of it, declining from 10 to I taken, to 100 to 8 offered, and this fishy pair were alsolaid against coupled at 10 to I. Priest was supported at 100 to 7, and an offer was made to accept 2,000 to 100 about Weather Star, but no more than 16 to I was to be obtained. The St. Leger betting underwent but little change ; 6 to 5 was offered against Hermit, and although a certain amount of hostility was at one moment directed against Achievement-100 to 40 being laid—she soon righted herself, and found supporters ready to take 2 to 1 kindly. With the exception of 500 to 5 being booked about Taraban, there is nothing else to record in connexion with this event. For the Cesarewitch, Illinkhoolie, as on the previous day, was first favourite at 20 to 1 ; but these odds were afterwards offered without a response. The re maining transactions will speak for themselves in the quo tations. For the Derby, 40 fifties were taken about The Earl.

The wicket' had much improved since the previous day. Mr. Absolon (not out) 3, was joined by Mr. Durkin ; the two Sussex bowlers, Lillywhite and flouthertoo, bowling to them. The balance of wickets fell in the following order :—Fonr for 41, five for 44, six and seven for 46, eight and nine for 47, ten for 60, eleven for 64, twelve for 6G, thirteen for 68, fourteen for 75, fifteen, sixteen, and seventeen for 80, eighteen for 81—the remaining three non est.

GUILDHALL Robert Woolland, 22, and IViitiatn Clarke, 42, were charged with being drunk and disorderly at the Moorgate street station of the Metropolitan Railway, and assaulting two of the officers of the company. The prisoners took third-class tickets from Bishop's-road to Moorgateatreet, but rode in a second-class carriage. Armstrong, a ticket. collector, detected them, and demanded the excess fare. The prisoners were both drunk, and refused to pay, and they were consequently taken to the office to give their names and addresses. Woolland then commenced kicking at one of the office doors and creating such a dist.urbanoe that he found it necessary to eject him from the station. At the door be struck the officer two or three times in the face, and Clarke struck him several severe blows, and kicked him on the back part of both 1 Another ticket-collector was also savagely assaulted by both the prisoners who made desperate efforts to escape. Woolland had been sery violent at the station all night, and kicked at the door of the cell until they took his boots off. Fined 10s. each, or seven days' imprisonment with bard labour. Sidney (Morn Fouler , 30 , alias Dr. Jolin Oalt, 2, Shep perton-cottages, Islington, was brought up on remand charged with selling indecent books and prints. Evidence was given by Inspector Thompson, the detec tive officer, that he bad made an appointment with the prisoner, and purchased from him an indecent book and six indecent stereoscopic slides. He then represented himself to be Mr. Galt, although a plate with " Dr. Fowler"was on the railings of the house be inhabited, but afterwards he called himself Dr. Fowler. When his house was searched, about ll j cwt. of obscene prints and books were found and seized. It was now stated that the prisoner's real name was James Forsyth. At the age of 18 he enlisted as a trooper in the Ist Life Guards, in which regiment he served for eight years, but in December last a court-martial was held upon him in Albany-street barracks, and he was dismissed the service, and drummed out of the regiment, the charges against him being that while in the regiment he advertised the sale of obscene books and prints, which be attempted to dispose of through the agency of a bookseller in Al bany-street. After leaving the army he took lodgings at several different places, and inserted matrimonial adver tisements, some answers to which were found in his pos session, one in particular appeared to come from a young lady enjoying an allowance of 501. a year from her guar dian, which would be increased to 600 t, upon her marriage. He also advertised for a lady housekeeper, and to receive ladies during their accouchement. He had published several pamphlets, and had concocted an elixir and made pills. The prisoner said the charges brought against him were false, and as for the books said to be obscene they were no other than medical books. He was, however, committed for trial at the Middlesex sessions, ►nd Mr. Cooke said be would accept bail, three sureties in 1001. each, and the prisoner himself in 3001. WORSHIP-STREET. Jonathan Tioentyynan, of gentlemanly appea ra nce, was charged before Mr. Newton with embezzling various sums of money collected by him for and on account of Messrs. Palmer and Co., wax candle and lamp manufacturers. Mr. Beard, solicitor, appeared for the prosecution, and said that several cases could be proved against the pri soner, but three only would be selected. The prisoner's duties were to show the wimple* of the goods, and, if necessary, to receive accounts tendered to him by the customers. Of the three accounts in question he had omitted payment of one to the cashiers entirely, and of the other two he had paid part only. Formal evidence having been given of this, Mr. Beard required a further remand, and a summons to compel the attendance of a person named Dove, whose evidence was requisite to prove his payment of three separate items to the prisoner. Mr. Newton most strongly objected to this proposal. The witnesses had been in attendance already three times, and he held it to be monstrous that they should be sub jected (as they would be if he granted the request) to the expense and inconvenience of again coming to that court, when they would speedily have to go before a jury. He fully believed that these repeated demands were subversive of the course of justice, for most persons would rather forego a prosecution than be incessantly dancing attendance at a police court while evidence was being gut u Mr. Abbott, for the prisoner, also desired a remand, asserting that if the magistrate heard the evidence he should then be able to produce be would not send the case for trial at all. Mr. Newton said that was simply &heard. Under the evidence placed before him already he should now commit the prisoner for trial. Detective 3116 K said that the prisoner had a wife and five children living in Brower-street, Pimlico, near which spot he apprehended him. Mr. Abbott then begged that the prisoner might be ad mitted to the same he'd as before. iiii.EitwiTwasiiitruThwitOObject that since the last examination it bad been ascertained that the prisoner'. defalcations were more weighty than supposed—namely, over 160/. daring the months of July and August only. Mr. Abbott, having failed in this request, begged that his client might be sent to the Old Bailey ; but Mr. Newton refused this also, and the prisoner was forthwith fully committed to the sessions. LAMB? John Bishop, a butcher, of Richmond-street, East-lane, Walworth finally appeared before Mr. Partridge, at the instance of Mr. Bell, sanitary inspector to the Newington vestry, on a charge of hav i ng unlawfully exposed for sale certain meat which was unfit for food, whereby he was liable to a penalty not exceeding 101. Henry Sib/eater, a labouring man, living in St. Paul's place, Westmoreland-road, Walworth-r, said he sent a girl to the defendant's shop to purchase a piece of steak and a chop. On receiving the meat be found it was in such a condition as to be quite unfit for food. He sent it back to the defendant, but be refused either to change it or re turn the money, and afterwards told complainant that he was not aware of its being in the condition described, and, further, pointed out the low price at which the meat was sold. Witness then took the meat to Mr. Bell, the in vector. Mr. Bell said that when he examined the meat, which was within a short time after it was purchased, he found it green, and quite unfit for food. lie sent a !mange to de fendant, but he took no notice of is. Mr. Partridge said it was a good thing they had such an inspector in the district as Mr. BelL This ho considered a very bad case, and ordered the defendant to pay the full penalty of 10/. and wets, or to be imprisoned for one month. MARLBOROUGH STREET. Thomas Palmer and Henry Carter, employed at Um Alhambra Meaic-hall, were charged with a violent assault on Mr. Hughes, builder, of Carlton-road, Kentish town. . . Mr. Hughes said that on the 29th of August he went to the Alhambra Music.hall, accompanied by his wife and another lady. When there they got into coavenation with three gentlemen, who agreed to join their party at supper. He was to pay for the wine and the other gentle. men for the viands. After supper the gentlemen went away and left without paying, whereupon the waiter demanded the money from him. At first be refused to pay for what be had not ordered, but the waiters threatened to " punch him" if he did not pay, and at last he was obliged to satisfy the demand. As soon as be had paid, the two defendants attacked him, struck himrepeatedly, knocked him down, and at length took him by the collar, and forced him out of the room. He was not drunk, and bad only partaken of part of a bottle of ale and part of a bottle of wine. He was not abusive, but the defendants used the most abusive language to him. This statement was confirmed by the lady who accompanied the complainant and his wife. Mr. Andrews, a surgeon, stated that the complainant was under his care. There were many contusions on his body, and a wound on his hand. Ma system was much shaken, and be was still under medical treatment. He first saw him after his return from the Alhambra, and be was much excited, but not from drink. For the defence several witnesses were called, who stated that the oumplainant was abusive in his l and very noisy, and that the waiters did their a dutyl turning him out, and used no more violence than was necessary. Mr. Knox thought it likely that the complainant was in liquor, and had knocked himself about so as to canes the injuries be had sustained. He would not send the case for trial, and should dismiss the charge. The expenses were applied for but refused. MARYLKBONE. - - - A few days ago a gentleman waited upon the magistrate for the Purpose of soliciting his assistance on behalf of an old Perunsular officer, named Lieutenant-Colonel Thomas Beckham, in • very destitute condition. He was in his seventy-sixth year, infirm, and bed-ridden, without the means of obtaining the comforts or even the necessaries of life. He had been in active service in different parts of the world for a period of forty-seven years, and had then sold out of the army in consequence of becoming security for a brother-in-law. He had also sustained heavy losses through the tannic of • bank. Mr. Mansfield directed strict inquiries to be made into the matter, and he was now informed that the statements were all perfectly correct. He, therefore, directed that 101. should be awarded to the veteran. THE CONSERVATIVE LAND SOCIETY.—On the 7th of September was the sixteenth anniversary of this society, which has issued 27,525 shares at 501., namely, 1,376,2501., on which 1,093,261/. have been p a id.

HARDWARE.—Biantricaui, SEPT. 7.—Tbe reports in reference to the state of trade in this town have been rather more favourable of bite, but order, come in very slowly, and for the most part theyare for small quantities et goods ; manufacturer, are, however, u a rule rather more actively engages!, and notwithstanding the long continued depression, stocks in their heads have not accumulated to any extent. In the metal trades generally rather more animation is experienced, and the electroplates and edge tool wilier* are better supplied with orders. Manufac turers who are is any way dependent on orders from the railway companies, whether in this town or the district, report that very little Is being done. In the foreign department quietude still prevails. COTTON. LIVIMPOOL, Barr. 7.—Steady market, at 7esterday's prices.

Mageggeres, Sen. 7. The market for cotton yarn and cloth has been quiet and continued to droop in price throughout the week. Yes terday and to-day manufacturers have shown more anxiety to sell, and have evinced greater willingness to secure orders at the low prices current than we have hitherto seen. Daring these two days the depression has been of a more marked and general character than previously, and this feeling is increased owing to a considerable pressure to sell. The result of this is that pricer have become so irregular as to render it difficult to quote them isocurwely. They depend to a great extent upon the position of the seller as to stock, and the greater or less compulsion he may be under to realise. On the other hand, such a state of things tempts buyers to withhold offers in the hope that they may do better by waiting. Want of confidence in the prices current, lower as they have con tinued to sink for the last 15 to 20 days, is very general, and is becoming almost universal. Yarns are hardly feeling the depression just now to the extent of cloth, though in most kinds the decline since Tuesday has been something like Id. per lb. There is very little business offering either in water twist for China or the continent. India mule yarn is in little request, and lower in price. In the finer qualities of cotton spinners have freely given way to make sales, and Lome trade yarns are generally Id. per lb. lower. Towards the close of yesterday manufacturers ac cepted, in some instances, nearly ld. per lb. lower prices than they would have done a week ago. WOOLLEN.—LcEns, SEPT. 7.—We are not able to re port favourably respecting the markets this morning. The attendance at the Cloth-halls has been small, and the buyers who were present did not show much inclination to purchase to a greater extent than necessity required, and the parcels transferred have been limited both in number and amount. In the Coloured Cloth-hall a few good par cels of tweeds in the ordinary shades, along with a few coloured warps, have changed hands. Plain cloths herein a few instances been moderately well traruderred. Other departments have not been worthy of any special notice. The inquiries for hairliste have been more numerous than of late, the demand for the finer makes being considerably on the increase. Beavers and witneys have not been in very extensive demand, and hare met with purchasers only in limited amounts. Prices are without change. WOOL AND WORSTED.—DBADFORD, Serr. 7. — The past week has been characterised by quietness in the worsted trade. The operations in wool, though, perhaps, somewhat more frequent than of late, have, in the aggre gate, been comparatively limited. Consumers act with great caution, their transactions being confined to the pur chase of such small lots as will keep their machinery running. Prices are, on the whole, steady, and in some exceptional cases the seller may have a trifling advantage. The same inanimate feeling has been apparent in worsted yarns. The purchase of small lots for the purpose of as sorting stocks has been the principal business of export merchants. Low offers have been occasionally made with • view to test prices. There has been rather more inquiry, with a very limited business in some sorts of wet yarns, such as super 30's. The torpor which so long existed in the home department still continues. There is no material alteration in prices. The piece trade is still inactive, and though there is a more hopeful feeling as to the future, yet all appear to be waiting for some fancied turn of events either in connection with • good harvest or something else, which is to change the whole aspect of things, and todisei pate the languor which has too long prevailed. The American houses, recently doing a little, are doing nothing now, and the operations for home and the continent are quite of a retail character. Though prices are nominally the same, manufacturers are disposed to meet customers whenever there is • disposition to do business. CORN.—CAMBIUDGE, SEPT. 7.—Wheat was 30. to 4e. dearer ; other corn u before. Wheat. 60s. to 661. Bar ley, 40s. to 425. Oats, new, Me. to Ws. ; old, 28s. to 32a. Beans, 40s. to 445. Peas, 445. to 48s.

HERTFORD, SEPT. 7.—The market continues very small and supplies of new corn come in slowly. Wheat is dearer again to-day, say Is. per load, and some makes still higher. The reports of the new barley crop are not good ; scarcely any samples are yet offering of any new grain except wheat. Wheat, new red, 365. to 404.; old, 425. ; white, runs, 40s. to 435. • old, 465. per load. Barley, 265. to 46e. ; oats, coarse, 20e. to 26e. per qr. • fine, to 345.

The wheat crops are not so good as was at one time expected, but on the best soils the yield will be fair. The barley crops are variably spoken of ; some good samples will, however, be @morel The yield of oats wilt be tolerably good. There is a plentiful supply of grass. Turnips are making fair progress. At to-day's corn market we had • mode rate supply of wheat (mostly new). There was an im proved demand at 2s. to 34. per qr. over late rates. New white, 63a. to 675. • new red, 61s. to 6.55. • old white, 65. to 6.9 a. ; old ;Id, 625. to 675. per 36 ;tone. The supply of barley was not over large, and • tolerable demand was experienced at little or no alteration from late prices. There was a middling supply of oats, which met • fair demand, and the rates of last week may be quoted—sew, 275. to 325. ; old, 345. to 37a. per 24 stone. Of beans the show was limited, and the inquiry ruled steady at previous rates-48a. to 61s. per 36 stone. Fine flour, 50s. to 52a. ; seconds, 465. to 48e. per 20 stone. Nawcsarria.ox-Trag, Barr. 7.—The weather during the week has been showery, with intervals of fine weather. Harvest work progresses slowly, but is expected to be general on Monday. Last Tuesday we had an improved inquiry for old wheat, and in some instances an advance of Is. per qr. was obtained. The arrivals of new wheat have been principally sold for delivery per steamer. Flour is held more firmly. tirindiag barley inclining lower. Oats firm and in request. We had • very short supply of wheat from the country this morning, which sold readily at an advance of la. to 2s. per qr. • fine old foreign is held at 2.5. advance, but only ls. pro curable.: New south country in very scarce, and 2s. dearer.

NORWICH, SEPT. 7.-There VMS only • thin atten dance at this market to-day, and the supply of wheat was limited ; prices must be quoted for good and dry qua lities, 2s. to 3a. per quarter dearer than last Saturday. The barley trade has not yet opened. Since Tuesday the weather has been very unsettled, and occasional heavy showers of rain have fallen ' • the wheat crop is princip a lly secured, but it is reported that about one-third of the barley crop I. still in the fields. To-day is fine with • brisk dryiug wind. White wheat, tills. to 72a. ; red ditto, We to Ws. per qr. Flour, 475. to 48s. per sack. Averages: Wheat, 2,704 qrs., 59a. 3d.; barley, 13 qrs., 408. NOTTINGHAM, SIM 7.-A great deal of corn has been secured around here, and stacks are rising in the fields. In some plaoes the corn *rope are abundant ; in others very irregular. The pastures are in • very satisfactory state, and swedes promise a good crop. Peas are • failing crop. The potato disease is becoming very prevalent in many districts. In some please there is a scarcity of labour. There was • small supply of new wheat at our corn market today, and very little old. The demand was fair, and the former advanced 2s. to Is. ; the latter made le. to 2a. per qr. more money. New white sorts made 66e. to 735. • new red, 60a. to 118 e. • old white, 68s. to 73e.; old red ; , 63e. to 70s. per 36' stone. There were simples of new barley showing, prices for which ranged from 40s. to 45e. per qr. Grinding was in small supply and met a fair demand at fully former rates-via., 38e. to 40e. per 30 *tom The show of oats was limited, and the demand ruled moderate at prices similar to those of last week-old, 34a. to 38e. ; new, 26a, to 31s. per 24 rime. Beans were • middling show, and realised former pried -46e. to 525. per 38 stone. Peas not much altered. Super Slone, 52.. to 34e.; fine, 475. to 495. per sack.

Fine red, 66e.: fine white, 725. par qr. of :St; stone. New oats make ls. ld. to Is. 2d. per atone. READING, SEPT. 7.—The supp ly of wheat in th e market this morning was limi ted and the price, conse quently were • little higher than list week. Barley and oats were firm, but little business was done. Beans and peas met with • fair inquiry, at former quotations, the attendance of dealer was pretty good. Rociagrign, SEPT. 7.—Consequent on the large supplies of foreign wheat which are finding their way to this country the corn trade in this city has again ruled list, while prices continue to have a downward tendency. Of the samples of grain exhibited at this market most of the parcels of wheat were of this yeses growth, and the de. mend for these was dull. With a retail inquiry on the part of millers and others prices for all but the best old lots must be noted as being Is. tots. per qr. cheaper. The present terms for best white wheat are 67e. to 70s. ; secondary, 65e. to 675. ' • and inferior, 63e. to &ss . per qr. Best red wheat, 63e. to 66e. ; secondary, 61s. to 63e. ; and inferior lots, 59.. to 61e. per qr. A very moderate amount of business was done in foreign wheats, and prices of that kind of grain were barely so high as before. Flour was a dull trade, and with but a retail demand the quotations are gd. to Is. per sack of 280Ibe. in favour of buyers. There was a steady inquiry for barley, and superior parcels for malting purposes brought about late quotations. In malt there was very little doing. Oats firm for old sorts, but new kinds the turn cheaper. Beans and peas both steady, with but little doing. The hops, under the in fluence of the recent fine weather, continue to improve. Picking, which has already commenced, will become general next week. WISSZCH, &gr. 7.—The eupplyof all grain Jeremy short today, the farmers being so busy in the harvest field. The best dry wheat is 2e. to 3s. dearer than on this day week, and spring corn about the same, except for oats, and they are rather cheaper. WORCESTER, Barr 7.—At this day's market there was a short supply of wheat, which sold at an advance of nearly 2a. per qr. Barley firmly held for quite as much money. New oats cheaper ; old quite as dear. Beans la. cheaper. Peas unaltered. YORK, Suer. 7.—The weather during the pun week ha. been of a chequered character, and on Tuesday there was a good deal of rain. The moisture has been of great value to the pastures, and mangolde are looking better. Turnips are also favourably reported of, but the disease has made considerable havoc amongst the potatoes. A large quan tity of grain has been housed in this county, and with a continuation of favourable weather the harvest will be rigorously proceeded with. The wheat crops vary accord ing to the nature and condition of the soil. Barley in some districts is turning out well, but in others iodate. rently. There was a limited supply of wheat to-daT for which an advance of Is. to 2s. per qr. was made. it bite, 625. to 67z; red, 575. to 645. per 36 stone. The show of new barley was tolerable, and there was a moderate trade doing ; old sorts for grinding were quite as well sold, and realised 39e. per 32 stone. Old oats brought late rates, and made 28e. to Ms. ; new were disposed of at 265. to 28s. per 24 stone. Beans nominally unaltered, and rates ranged from 46e. to 48e. ; peas, 465. ; malt, GBe. ; rye, 42a. per qr. Flour made, 48s. to 50e. per sack of 2801 be. WATERPORD, SEPT. 7.—From abroad we an report liberal supplies of wheat, but of maize only one cargo has reached an. HOMO grain is coming to hand very sparingly. Our market has not undergone any change of consequence since this day sennight. There is a moderate demand for all articles at about former ratan. Home produce slightly declined in value. Foreign wheat was pretty well inquired for, hut business has been checked by the advance now asked by holders, consequent on yesterday's improved ac counts. Indian corn, after a slight decline during the week, closes firm at the full prices of Saturday last. Flour 6d. to Is. dearer. The weather continued wet early in the week, but towards the end turned favourable for harvest work. Imports this week : Maize, 2,426 qrs.; wheat. 6,916 ; flour, 8 sacks.

STATE OF TRADE.—NOTTINGRAIL SATURDAY.— There is still no Improvement in the lava trade, the de. maad for all dunes of goods being of • very limited na ture. The home trade is languid, and there are very few shipping orders. There have, however, been a few orders in the market for foundation goods and plain nets. In the fancy branch there ere a few curtains in demand. Lace yarns are easier to purchase. Silk goods are not in re quest, and the demand for black laces and narrow edgings is very dull. Raw silk is unchanged in prices with a heavy inquiry. There has been about the usual amount of busi• nese doing in the hosiery trade, both for home and ship ping orders. No material change in the price of hosiery yarns. THE " STOWAWAY " SYSTEM.—At the Liverpool police court • few days since two men were charged with having concealed themselves on board the steamer City of Paris, and come from New York to Liverpool without paying their passage-money. The case was remanded in consequence of one of the prisoners having stated that be had paid fifteen dollars to one of the stewards, named Robinson, fur stowing him away. On Saturday last the cam was again before the court, when it was proved that the " stowaway's " tale was correct, and that Robinson had been guilty of similar practices before. He was fined 51., or, in default, two months' imprisonment. . _ - - [Advertisement.] HOLLOWAY'S PILLS.—With the changes In the weather will come trials to the constitutin*, over which any one moderately observant may happily puce, provided Holloway's medicine he taken when the first symptoms of disordered action or depressed feelings indicate a departure from health.
