.__ *parting Intelligence. NEWMARKET FIRST OCTOBER MEETING. Tituemii.tv A fine afternoon favoured the racing to-day, which, on the whole, was very good. Proceedings commenced with Her .11.ijerity's Plate, which brought out a field of five runners, and was won easily by Baron Iluthschild's band some horse Dalegman, who outatu>ml his opponents.

The celebrated Mail Train, who IV supported freely for thi, nice, broke down when it came to a struggle.

Pecan landed a " pot" in the Twen tieth Triennial with the assistance of Fordham, who had quite his share of winning mounts throughout the day, as will be seen below. Another twig to the laurels of the now fashionable sire Trumpeter was added by Gloire de Dion iu a handicap sweepstakes of 10 son., and thereby the followers of Sammy Kenyon's mounts, who are beginning to bold up their heads again. had a good q Chignon won the finest race of the day in the Hand*.i*Plate of 50 son., just doing Moleskin by a head, after a splendid struggle ; but the most " sensational" event was the succeeding and last one, when the heavily backed Derby colt Suffolk, with the odds of G to 5 on him, was easily bowled over by The Earl. It must, however, be mentioned that Suffolk walked away lame from the course. There was some betting on future events, the most remarkable feature in which was the further advance of the Newmarket " moral " for the Cesarewitch, Honesty, about whom sto 1 was taken as freely as elms-money, rut beyond that there was no wager worth commenting upon, and the quotations, with full details of the sport, will be found below. _ _ tr THE (IL:Metes PLATE of 100 guineas, for 3-yr-ohla and u=s.

The lot got well off, and ran in close company for a hundred yards, when Mail Train took up the running, followed by Prim rose, a length in rear of whom came Stephen Langton and The lizard abreast, slightly in advance of Violent and the Rupert's dam colt. Tbis order was maintained for a mile and a half, when Mail Train dropped away from the front rank, having broken down badly, Primrose being left with a slight lead of The Lizard and Stephen Langton, the latter running very shiftily, requiring all Butler's determination to keep him straight. At the Lushes-hill Primrose was beaten, and Violent on the right took up the running, closely attended by The Lizard, Stephen Langton still swerving all over the course, being most wide on the left. Halfway down the hill all were apparently beaten, their jockeys being bard at it, and Violent, on entering the cords drew away so percep tibly that an early victory appeased at her mercy. Butler, however, had just succeeded in getting Stephen Langton straight, and finishing with a tremendous rush that showed how much ho bad in hand, Prince Solti koff's colt won by two lengths from Violent, who was at least twice that distance in advance of The Lizard. Prim rose was fourth, and the Rupert's dam colt fifth, but Custance pulled up Mail Train and dismounted before reaching the port. Id.yrEti ; 50 . 0 . e0n,, It ft ; Ceealewitcl!

The clubs were most meagrely attended to-day, and very little business was transacted. The mum feature was the extraordinary force with which Honesty came, as little as 5 to 1 being accepted wherever these odds were procurable, and in the end asked for in vain. Blinkhoolie was backed freely at 10 to 1, and the friends of Armourer were not yet tired out, they taking still 10 to 1. Sealskin, Romping Girl, kiontgoubert, and Oannon Bill were moderately sup ' ported and this was all the business transacted on the Cesaresritch.

THE LIMEHOUSE MURDER. After our teport left yesterday, Mr. Itibton concluded • very able and eloquent speech by milling upon the jury to acquit the prisoner on the ground that the evidence in support of the charge was not of that conclusive character as to justify them in finding the prieoner guilty of • crime for which his life would be undoubtedly forfeited. One ui the jury said he should wi.,h to Le informed whether it was possible for such an injury to be inflicted without more blood being upon the clothes of the person who committed the act than there appeared to be on the clothes of the prisoner, supposing him to have done it. Dr. Taylor, who was appealed to, said that this would depend upon the position of party at the time the act was committed. If done from behind, no blood would pro bably be spurted upon the party who committed the act ; but if done from the side or the front the result would be very different, and he should expect to find a great deal of blood upon the person who caused the injury. Mr. Justice Lush said that this was one of the difficul ties of this very remarkable case, and it would be the pro vince of the jury to come to the beat oonalusion they could upon this and all the other facts that had been submitted to them, and in the result, to decide upon the guilt or innocence of the prisoner. The questions for their conside nition were, whether the prisoner haddestroyed the life of the deceased, and then made a sham attempt upon his own life in order to avert suspicion, or whether the deceased destroyed her own life after an ineffectual attempt to kill the prisoner. The learned j udge then proceeded to refer to the evidence,and heobservedthattherecertainly didnot appear to be any positive testimony that the cries of murder and the other expressions represented to have been made about two o'clock came from the house of the prisoner, and it was rather remarkable that each of the witnesses , leared H th e le give a fe a r i fed different acco unposit as ti which lla took trillowhin pa r i t o n w der w it t e i l place. n nw ee lo an f deceasedtr te.p e w e a: j f . o c und t , t packet u wi nd h er a a chair over it, and he said it would be a point for the consideration of the jury how it was that she could have come into this position ; the statement on the part of the prisoner being that he saw the deceased in the act of cutting her throat, and that he immediately ran out into the street. The learned judge next referred to the character of the wound that had been inflicted upon the deceased, and said that if the theory of the medical men was correct, that such an injury could not have been self-inflicted except under the influence of frenzied excite ment, it was difficult to reconcile it to the statement of the prisoner, or that the deceased wounded him before she committed the act - se if she had been in the condition re ferred to, she would meet probably have inflicted much more serious injury upon the prisoner than he appeared to have received. His lordship then proceeded to call the attention of the jury to the evidence relating to the period the deceased was supposed to have been dead, and to show that she was killed several hours before the prisoner gave the alarm. He then said that he was of opinion that it was no part of the duty of the prosecution to call the mother and father of the prisoner as witnesses, but the former would cer tainly have been a most important witness forthe prisoner, because she could have proved whether his statement that she was the first person who saw the deceased in the act of cutting her throat, and called out to him to tell him so, was true ; and she could also probably have given some explanation how the body of deceased came in the position in which it was found. Ha concluded by stating that the whole of the facts were before the jury, and if the evidence satisfied them that the prisoner was guilty of the crime, it was their duty to say so by their verdict ; and on the other band, if they had any reasonable doubt upon the matter, the prisoner was entitled to an acquittal. The jury retired at 20 minutes past five o'clock to de liberate. They returned into court at ten minutes past eight, and they then gave • verdict of Guilty of wilful murder, but at the same time they 'strongly recommended the prisoner to mercy on the ground that they did not be lieve that the act was premeditated. Mr. Avery, the clerk of the court, then put the usual formal question to the prisoner whether he had anything to urge why judgment of death should not be passed upon him. The prisoner, in a firm and distinct voice, replied—l can only say, my lord, that I am entirely innocent of the murder of Agnes Oates, and I never lifted icy hand against her till I found her cutting my throat. I lifted up ay hand while she was cutting my throat, and she cut my thumb and caused the wound that appeared upon it. While she was cutting my throat I tried to call out, but could not, and as I was gettti n a l way from her and go out of the room, I saw some white ing in • chair, which turned out to be her drawers, an there was no blood upon them. I went to my mother and told her that Agnes had out my throat. I don t know what she did, but I went to the window and called out to Dunn and went into the street. When I went back she was in the act of cutting her own throat, and blood was bubbling from the wound. When I saw her again she was in • sitting posture leaning against the wall, and as I am before my God she was not placed out, and no chair was over her head, and there was no pillow on the floor, nothing but the jacket. When she got out of bed and asked me to forgive her her shift was not torn. I oan be on my oath that the shift was not torn when " the murder" was done. As to lifting • hand against her I never did. I never had the knife in my hand from the time I had my supper until I picked it up and gave it to my mother, and said, " Mother, this is what she did it with." I can say on my solemn oath before God and man, and if I was to die to-morrow, that I am not guilty of the murder of Agnes Oates. Mr. Wilson, the senior usher, then made the usual pro clamation for silence. Mr. Justice Lush, having assumed the black cap, addressed the prisoner and said—The jury have heard the statements that were proved in the course of the trial, and which were in effect the same that you have now made., and they have bestowed upon them the meet careful atten tion and consideration, as well as upon all the other evidence and they have come to the conclusion that yon were g uilty of the crime laid to your charge, and I must say t hat I concur in the verdict that they have returned. They have recommended you to mercy, and I will take care that this recommendation is forwarded to the proper quarter, and I shall now do no more than par the sentence of the law. The learned judge then delivered the usual formal sentence of death. The prisoner, who did not exhibit the slightest emotion, as he was leaving the bar exclaimed, "All I can say, sir, is that I shall die innocent." lie was then removed by the turnkeys. (Before the Common Berjeant.) THE SENTENCE ON THE CITY BURGLARS. The three men, James Evans, John Robinson, and John Davin were brought up to receive sentence for having been in possession of eight skeleton keys with intent to commit felony. Mr. Batley, the counsel for the prosecution, called John Mackenzie, a machinist, who stated that he knew a person named Dan Donovan upwards of thirty years ago. In 1835 he was tried at the Central Court for burglary. He sew the same man now in the dock—the one with the white heir (Evans). Mr. Montagu Williams (prisoners' counsel)—Where were you dug up? (Laughter.) Who brought you here? Witness—l came here in consequence of a subposna from the City solicitor. Sergeant Moss said he had known Evans about the City for two or three years. He did not know about his coming back from America. He had emaciated with the most notorious burglars in London, and watched outaide when a burglary was being committed. Among the gangs with which be had been connected were those of the Donglasses, of Brown (called " Scottie"), and of Cassley. Robinson was convicted of felony in 1858, and sentenced to nine months' imprisonment. The Common Serjeant inquired if Mr. Williams intended to call any witnesses. Mr. Williams replied in the negative, remarking that it was very difficult to refute these broad-cast statements. The Common Serjeant did not think he could pay much heed to conviction obtained so long ago—in the one came ten, and in the other thirty yearn back. _ _ Sergeant, Mots sai d Oboe bad received instructions to watch these men when they were in the City, and there were many things which he could explain. Mr. Williams mid he must not go into that. - - - The Common Serjeant did not think there was much distinction between the case of one or other of the pri soners in point of merit, but in point of fact Robinson had pleaded guilty to a previous conviction for burglary ; otherwise be should have pronounced the same sentence on all of them. In the case of Robinson, the least sen tence the law allowed was seven years' penal servitude. The sentence on Evans and Davis would be five years' penal servitude. held up the knife to strike at her. The prisoner did not appear to be the worse few liquor. Mark Coleman, SO B, said he received the prisoner in charge for cutting the proseeutrix, and she said she did not do it. The prisoner miterated her statement that she did not assault the prosecutrix, and that if she was cut she must have done it herself while engaged in the struggle. The jury returned a verdict of Quilt,. The judge sentenood her to ho imprisoned and kept to hard labour for six months. THE ( A,E OF THE NOTORTOI:a "IJIL FON LEH." SHII Cy 0160r11 Yoiolcr, alias Dr. John Gall, was indicted for uttering and publishing twelve obscene and indecent photographic pictures, and he was further indicted for un lawfully, wickedly, maliciously, and w icked , and uttering to James Thomson certain lewd, scandalous, and obscene print.. There were six other counts varying the offence. Mr. Sleigh prosecuted on behalf of the Society for the Suppression of Vice ,• Mr. Cooper (instructed by Mr. Thomas Wakeling) defended the prisoner, who pleaded not guilty to the different indictments. The jury returned a verdict of Guilty on all the indict menta Dir. Sleigh said it was right the court should know some thing of the previous career of the prisoner. He called Sergeant bl'afanus, of the let Life Guards, said, that under a regimental court of inquiry held in December, 1n66, the prisoner was dismissed from the regiment as un worthy to serve in the Life Guards. The subject of the prisoner dealing in such things was brought under the notice of Colonel the Hon. Dudley Fitzgerald de ltoa, and the case was fully made out against him. A report of these facts was made to General the Earl of Lucan, who ordered the prisoner to be dismissed as unworthy to serve in the Life Guards. Mr. Sleigh said he now wished to give the history of the prisoner, whose real name was James Forsyth. At the age of 18 he came to London and enlisted in the Life Guards, in which he served for upwards of eight years, when his traffic in indecent books and prints was discovered, and in pursuance of the recommendation of the court of inquiry he was dismissed from the regiment. After being a timekeeper ou the Metropolitan Railway works at Kensington he ad ' vertised for a wife, and received replies from severslladies, one of whom said she had an income of 501. a year, and • legacy of 400/. at the death of a relative ; but whether the present Mrs. Fowler was the lady who so described herself he was not aware, but he hoped she was not. He afterwards had advertisements inserted in the papers, setting forth that" Dr. and Mrs. Fowler wished to adopt a healthy male child, premium required ;" which upon in quiry proved to be 50/., 601., 701., or 100/. That he wanted a lady housekeeper ; and that ladies could be re ceived at his establishment, where • medical man and nurse were retained, for their aooouchement ; and also that he possessed the secret of an elixir for certain diseases. A long correspondence had fallen into the officers' hands, from which it appeared that he was in the habit of writing to females, o ff ering if they came to him to procure abortion where the fact of becoming • mother would not be desirable, and on the very day that he was taken into custody he bad an appointment with a lady from Man chester, who had oome up for the purpose of submitting to an operation upon her. He was not a medical man, but as an excuse for adopting the title of " doctor " purchased a German diploma for • few shillings, erased the original name, and substituted that of " Sydney Osborne Fowler." The judge said the prisoner had been convicted on his own confession of a series of crimes committed for the pur pose of oontaminating and destroying the minds of the people, and when • comparison was made between offences of • similar nature brought before the court, they com pletely paled when set against the monstrous iniquity committed by the prisoner at the bar. Such offences hitherto brought before the court when set against these went for • mere nothing, for the course he had proceeded upon was calculated to destroy the morale of every young man and woman in the country who might happen to be reached by his pestilential 'tram. His learned counsel had said that the person who wanted such things had sought him out, and that he did not offer them ; but the learned counsel had paid but little regard to the evidence of Inspector Thomson, who said the prisoner was quite ready to send any of these things on the amount in postage stamps being remitted for them, and there was no telling how many had become victims through his odious publications. The correspondence found showed that he was ready to commit other crimes, for which he might have been separately indicted. It was proved that he was not a person who had been led away by any sudden temptation, as he had pursued similar practices while in the army ; but upon this being brought to the notice of the lieutenant-colonel, he had been dismissed from the service as unworthy to wear the uniform of the Life Guards. As a warning to others, the sentence on him was that he be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for two years. street be saw the men slop therr carts near Ganott's shop, and a piece of lead (produced) was tai lit into the shop by one of them. The men then went away with tbeircarts, and ho (witness) spoke to a constable (Cording, 154), who went to Garrett's shop and demanded the lead, which Garrett pro duced, stating that he had just purchased the lead of a man. He afterwards saw his employers, who give the pri soners into custody. Alfred Cording, 154, said that on being spoken to by the last witness he went into Garrett's shop, and asked him if he had purchased any lead, and he said he had, and that be gave Ils. for it, and produced the had from behind the counter. He looked in Garrett's hook, but there was no entry of the transaction, but subsequently there was one put in. Garrett subsequently said that he purchased the lead of Hinge, who gave the name of Jones. He took e prisoners to the station-house, and on searching • a and Jones he found on the former 4e. 4iii., and on t e latter 2a. 6d., but a half-crown fell down the leg of Ringe's trousers while he was sitting in the yard, and could not be found.'Hinge and Jones said when he took them into custody that they knew nothing about the lead. Mr. Holland said the value of the lead was about 19a. Mr. Lewis addressed the magistrate on Garrett's behalf, urging that the evidence was not sufficiently strong to de tain him, and stating that he had at times rendered sada tapas to the police.

The eleventh half-yearly ordinary general meet ing of this excellent association, the objects of which are to grant pensions to officers and servants employed upon or in connection with railway., in case of lengthened or permanent incapacity for duty, and to give prompt tem porary assistance in owes of accident or other emergency, was held at the London T►vern last night ; the Hight Hon. Viscount BURT in the chair. The notice convening the meeting having been read, The report was taken as read. It stated that the corn mittee noticed with pleasure the healthy state of the society. At no period of its history had it been so satis factory, 19 deaths only having occurred during the put six months. Upwards of 5,780/. had been paid to claim ants since May, 1%3. The George Stephenson fund had been increased by 1001. from donations received during the past six months, and the annual May collection included several new donors and annual subscribers. Meetings had been held at Strat ford, Ipswich, Bow, and other places, for the purpose of adding to the funds and promulgating the objects of the society ; and the committee acknowledged th e kindness of the promoters of these meetings, and anticipated • good result from their labours. All the necessitous applica tions for temporary amistance had been entertained, and the committee proposed to increase the two annuities already granted of 151. to 201., and felt assured that at no distant period they would be in • position to place more annuitants on the funds. The report in;a iinZiMonaly adopted. Mr. JOHNSON then moved that the annuities of W. each granted at the last half-yearly meeting to Mr. J. Frost and Mr. J. Peckitt be increased to 201. He was glad that the funds of the association enabled them to make this in teemed grant. The report alluded to the satisfactory diminution of the death rates, but it must also be borne in mind that the mousy they had had to deal with bad been lees. This resointiim which was seconded by Mr. Dorr, was also carried unanimously. CHATItAM, SEPT. 26.—The following vessels have been chartered by the government for the conveyance of mules to be employed with the troops about proceeding to Abyssinia—viz, the Bolivar, the Empress, the Venetia, the Parana, and the Counmoundonris. The whole of the above ships have been inspected to-day by some of the officers of the staff from this garrison, and they are under orders to leave the river on Saturday. Each vessel will convey about 150 mules, for the accommodation of which number special arrangements have been made on bowl. The ships will take on board the mules at Gibraltar and Malta, to which places they will proceed direct from England. Detachments of the Military Train and the Army Hospital corps will proceed in all of the vessels. THE LATE STEAMBOAT COLLISION ON THE THAMES.—Ms. Carttar yesterday resumed the inquiry into the canes of death of the two children who were drowned in the collision between the Metia and Went worth. The same legal gentlemen appared as before. Several witnesses were called by Mr. Fry, the solicitor to the Woolwich Steam packet Company, and they corro borated the view of the matter taken by the captain of the Yetis. The Coroner stated that he had applied to theßoard of Trade, but could get no one to attend from that office. lie then went to Lloyd's, and two gentlemen, perfectly competent and independent, were in attendance from that establishment. Captain Fredk. Yorke Steward was then sworn. He stated that he was surveyor to the Salvage Association at Lloyd's. He believed the rules of the road at sea applied to the Thames. Ships going against the tide kept in shore. They gene. rally made a side for themselves. The Wentworth was on her right side, and the Metis was not. He be lieved the rule with regard to vessels meeting end on, or nearly and on, applied to the Thames. in this case there was nothing to interfere with the rule being carried out. Captain , C. W. Bonham said he was post captain in the royal navy. His opinion was that the Wentworth was on the ngbt shore, and that the Metia ought to have been in the middle of the stream. The Metis was perfectly right in stirboarding her helm when she saw that the col lision was inevitable. The (Coroner, having summed up, the jury engaged in consultation for about an hour, when they returned the following verdict :—" That the deceased departed this life by being drowned in the waters o f the river Thames from the collision between the Metia and Went worth steamboats, the collision arising from an error of judgment on the part of the captain of the Metis in not keeping his proper course in navigating his veleeL"—Mr. C. E. Lewis, coroner, also resumed an adjourned inquest at Dagenham, respecting the death of George L'heesman, the steersman of the Metis, at the time of the collision. After a number of witnesses had been examined, the jury returned a verdict of " Accidental death." LOSS OF LIFE ON THE EASTERN COAST. —The heavy gale from the N.W. which burst over the eastern coast on Tuesday caused great damage to the shipping and the large fishing fleet at present in pursuit of herrings. Two men were washed from the smack New Reliance, of Great Yarmouth, and drowned, and the smack Secret :leo hart a man. A tremendous sea boarded the lugger Glance, sweep ing her decks and rendering her almost a onniplete wreck, washing away her boat, and knocking a boy into the hold and breaking his leg. The injury done to the rest of the fleet was very great, and much of the gear was lost. Intel ligence arrived at Great Yarmouth, on Thursday, of a very sad disaster. While riding out the storm about 30 miles off land eigeals of distress were observed by two smacks, the Rosa and the Fearnought, both of Yarmouth, flying from a brig. The smacks at once bore down, and the master of the brig dated that hie vessel was sinking, and that hisboats were stove in. Notwithstanding a tremendous cross sea the smacks launched their boats to the rescue of the brig. They succeeded in boarding the brig, the Rosa's boat taking four of the distressed crew, and the Fearnought three. On returning the Rosa's boat capsized, all the men being thrown into the raging sea One of the unfortunate fishermen, William Boulter, was dead when hauled on board, and another, William Westgate, quite exhausted. The Fearnought su cceeded in saving three of the crew of the brig, but in what manner is not known, as the smack had not arrived at Yarmouth when our parcel was de spatched. - lciltaLTH RESTORID DT Du BARRY'S FOOD TO 71111 erostactr, nerves, lurk and liver of old and young. =slag dyspepsia (Indigestion), sonallpetloe, diarrhea, acidity, bead. ache, neuralgia, hysteria, palpitation, sleepiewnew, debility waUng, cough, asthma, fevers, cone nppttllon, low spirits. 60,016 annul cures Udell bad notated all medfriar, including that of his Holiness the Pops.—Tina, at U. lid.: 11b., 111 b., 22e. ; 40L—Du Barn and Co., 77, Regent-street, London also at 61, (trust:birch-street ; 4, Cleavable; a and 110, Oxford-street ; and all groom and chemists,-111dvsellsonalt.1 MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. (Before Mr. Serjeant Dowling, Deputy Assistant-Judge.) Ellen Rooney, 42, was indicted for maliciously wounding Elisabeth Brocksoff, with intent to do her grievous bodily harm. The prosecutrix said she was the wife of Robert Brock soff, of 9, Manchester-buildings, and on Monday afternoon, the 2nd of September, she was at No. 8, Burton-street, doing some cleaning work for a Mrs. Fisher, and the pri soner was also there. Witness told her that a person to whom she owed money was very desirous of having it. Upon this the prisoner got into a great passion, and said she would not pay. Witness told her that she need not be so much put out about it, and when the prisoner ap proached her in a threatening manner she pushed her away. The prisoner immediately snatched up a knife from the table, and she said she would kill witness, and she did cut lice with the knife. Wit n es s put up her hand to protect herself, and in doing so her finger was cut. The prisoner was not sober, nor was witness, and she said, " I will kill you." Mary Ann Fisher proved bearing words between the pro. secutnx and prisoner. The prisoner was very much en. raged and said she would have herrevenge, at the same time taking up a knife from the table. M rs . Brocksoff stepped back, fell down, and put up her hand to save herself from the knife. Witness pulled the prisoner away, and when she saw what she had done she said she was very sorry. Witness did not exactly see the cut given, but the prisoner THE POLICE COURTS. MANSION-HOUSE. A cue which excited some atnusenTent was heard on • summons obtained by Hyam Lewis Tapper, tailor, of Pro vidence-place, Middlesex-street, City, against Ju do/ Lucia Dembelinski, his apprentice, for neglecting to fulfil his contract, 18 months of which were unexpired. The defen dant was • boy apparently about 14 years of age, and he end his master are Polish Jews. They were accompanied into court by interpreters, but the services of the latter were not considered necessary, as the complainant could speak broken English, and the boy understood the lan guage tolerably well. Complainant stated that the boy would not work, and hi was " too much saucy." He paid m 6s. • week, which, with his victuals, would amount to about 15e., but the defendant was not worth 2s. a week to him. Defendant's brother-in-law stated that the boy came to him and complained that be was fed upon potatoes, and that he wan unable to work. His father was dead, and his mother lived with witness. Sometimes defendant had to work from six in the morning till twelve at night. Complainant maid this was only at one time of the year. Usually be commenced at eight o'clock, but witness bad to spend time in " making roars" to him to get up in the morning. In reply to the Lord Mayor the boy maid be got six potatoes and a piece of liver for dinner. (Laughter.) He got liver two or three time' a week. He did not want to leave his master's service. Complainant said the boy got what the rest of the family got, and had no ground for complaint. The Lord Mayor said liver was very good food if it was not eaten too often. (Laughter.) His lordship then told complainant that although the family chose to live upon potatoes the boy must be properly fed. Under the circum stances he would not cancel the indenture u the muter desired, but cautioned the boy to attend to his work in the future, seeing that his time would expire in 18 months. GUILDHALL. Eliza nay, a married woman, wu placed at the bar be• fore Alderman Raley, charged with biting a boy on the ann. Mr. Martin (chief clerk) informed the worthyy alderman that the prisoner was a most desperate drnnkanl, and • very violent woman. She bad not lung since been tried at the Central Criminal Court for manslaughter, having in a fit of drunkenness smothered her infant, and then she was acquitted. She bad since then been sent to prison for assault, and there was now • summons out against her for an assault on the mother of the present complainant. R. Paton, 3, Bartlett's-buildings, said about 8 o'clock on Wednesday night the prisoner was drunk, and when he went down stairs to let his brother in she attacked him most savagely bit his arm, and threatened to rip his stomach up with • knife which she held in her hand. She further said that if she did put the knife into him, she would put it in properly. Mrs. Paton, the mother of the last witness, said she had taken • summons out against her for assault, and sine* she bad received it she would not allow her (witness's) boys to open the door to her, and there was always • fight in the pump before she could be let in. She (the prisoner) broke • jug of witness's by throwing it at her husband. She had also smashed a table, and thrown an iron tea kettle out of the window, breaking the spout of it. Both these were witness's property. A night or two ago she broke 17 windows in ber own place, and her husband had had to get them put in. Tibby, the husband, was called forward, and said that he could do nothing with her, she was so drunken and violent. He had now awoundon his forehead where she had stabbed him with a knife ; there was soar on his head which she had done with a poker, and another on the cheek, which was caused by her throwing a jug at him ; and he likewise bad the marks on his arm where she had bitten him. When she was under the charge of manslaughter he mo. cured her counsel, and got her acquitted, and then when she came out he sent her into the country for • week. When she came home she pawned all his things and her own. (The poor man, who seemed heart-broken, showed the duplicates of the articles pledged.) Them was no oo caaion, he said, for her to pledge anything, as he cave her money enough to keep house, but she spent it all in drink. Mr. Martin informed Alderman Bosley that the man was a very sober and steady man, but such was his love for the women that notwithstanding all he had now said against her if a fine were indicted on her he would get the money to pay it rather than let ber co to prison. The prisoner, in defence, said that her husba n d did not Five her enough to eat, end they were always throwing it in her teeth that she killed her child. She was in a very sad position, for nobody would take her part. Alderman Besley said he did not see how she could ex pect it—a violent woman as she was, attacking every one. It was wrong to upbraid her with having killed her child, because a jury had acquitted her of that, but for this savage assault he should send her to prison for 21 days' hard labour.

TO TEN IDITOB OP TUB RIPE'S& Six,—l have the honour to inform you that, in conformity with a resolution passed on the Ist of August last,lat a general meeting of shareholders in Peril, the Suez Maritime Canal Company has opened a subscription for the issue of 333,33:3 obligations, secured on the pro perty and income of the company, including landed pro perty, the materiel, and also the revenues derived from tolls levied on the passage of ships, and those arising from lands in possession of the company. The Suez Mari time Canal Company was formed in the year 18613, with • capital of two hundred millions of francs, and pending the construction of the works has already acquired from the sale of lands situated along the line of the fresh water canal, indemnities,and investments, • sum amounting to a hundred millions of franca, which has been applied to reclaiming lands for building purposes along the maritime or main canal. It is Mated that these lands represent a very considerable prospective value. The price of issue is 303frs., redeemable in fifty years at 500frs. The interest, which is 25frs. per obli gation (or 5 per cent. at par), commences on the 1M of October next, and is payable half-yearly, on the let of April and Ist of October, and there are to be quarterly drawings for redemption at 500frs. on and after the 15th of September, 1868. The subscriptions are payable as follows : 25 per cent. on application. 2.5 per cent. on allotment. 75 per cent. between the sth and 15th of November, 1867. 50 par cent. between the let and 10th of January, 1868. 50 per cent. between the Ist and 10th of April, 1868. (The ucted interest then due, amounting to 1250fr5., being ded.) An 3 d oof 75 per cent. between the lst and 10th July, 1868— rs. These terms show 8} per cant. without reckoning the drawings. Subscriptions will be opened from Thursday, the 26th, to Monday, the 30th September, 1867, at the offices of the Suez Maritime Canal Company, 9, Square Clary, Paris, between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. It may be urged that the time is so limited aa to preclude Englishmen from practically availing themselves of the subscnption, should they feel disposed to do so, and I have therefore endea voured to induce the company to extend the period beyond that originally fixed, via., the 30th September. In this I have not succeeded ; but lest it may be maid that England has been shut out from this loan, I am authorised to re ceive the subscription in London, and shall do so at the offices of Messrs. Mieville, Payne, and Lawrence, Angel court, Throgmorton-street, London, on the days and time above named. The deposits will be paid daily into the London and Westminster Bank, London. I have the honour to be, sir your obedient servant, DANIEL A. LANGE, English Representative of the Suez Maritime Canal Company. 21, Regent-street, September 25, 1867. CHANCERY REFORIIB.—OR Tuesday next a very useful provision in the new Chancery Act will take effect, and save trouble and delay in the reoeipt of the October dividends to a large class of persons. Hitherto the prac tice has been to require one of the registrars of the Court of Chancery to countersign the cheques after the ac countant-general for the dividends ; but now tbe counter signature of the clerk paying the money is to be sufficient, and the! new mode will facilitate the payment of nume rous sums. _ _ _ FEMALE JErßons.—ln the new Criminal Act jurors objecting to be sworn may make affirmation, and in the statute the words are "his or her" affirmation. It has been supposed that the feminine gender was a mis take, but it has been purposely used to provide for a " jury of matrons " allowed in certaui cases. A WARWICKSHIRE VICAR CONVICTED OF FRAUD. —At Osweatry, yesterday, before Mr. W. Ormsby Gore, M.P., Colonel Lovett, and Mr. B. Owen, the Rev. Edward Muckleston, vicar of Heasley, Warwickshire, appeared in answer to a summons charging him with defrauding the Great Western Railway Comp.lny, by riding from Chester to Hatton Junction, near Birmingham, without a ticket. Mr. Charles Chandler, of Shrewsbury, conducted the pro. secution. The facts deposed to went to show that the fraud charged against the rev. defendant was one of • series perpetrated in the most ingenious and deliberate manner. It appears that on the Bth ult. the defendant purchased • tourist ticket, No. 140, from Leamington to Rhyl and back, available for one month. In come quence of certain information possessed by the railway authorities, special instructions was given to the ticket-in spectors and guards along the line to observe and take notes of thedefcndant's movements. On August 10th he travelled from Chester to Shrewsbury, and on examining the tickets at Reaschurch the guard found that the defendant was using the ticket he had purchased at Leamington. On the 4th of the present month the defendant was again found travelling between Chaster and Shrewsbury, and at Gobowso, where tickets for the latter town are collected, Superintendent Brooker received the defendant's ticket, and saw it was the same ticket, No. 140, an.l also noticed that the down half, which would frank the defendant to Ithyl, had not been given up. He asked the defendant how that was, and he replied that he had not been as far as Rhyl, and thought it did not matter about giving the half up. The defendant was then allowed to proceed, and at Shrewsbury he got out and broke his journey, going on to Hatton junction, the station for Moseley, on the fol lowing Saturday. It was explained that unless detected an unscrupulous person might use a tourist's ticket, such as that obtained by the defendant, for any number of times within the month for which it was lamed. Thus, on the down journey, the ticket being for Ithyl, would not be demanded at Cheater, and if the holder proceeded no further in that direction he might retain the ticket altogether. As regards the up j to Leamington, tickets for which town are given up at Hatton Junction, the defendant would use his tourist ticket as far as Birmingham, and, taking • ticket for the abort distance between that town and Hatton Junction, would arrive at the latter station with the whole of the tourist tickets in his possession ready for use on future journeys. It transpired in the course of the investigation that in March, 1865, the rev, defendant had been de tected in the committal of a similar fraud at Shrewsbury, but bad then been let off on payment of a donation to the local infirmary. The magistrates animadverted in strong terms upon the enormity of the offence committed by a person occupying the position of the defendant, and fined him 21. and oats. ANOTHER COLLISION ON THE THAMES AND LOSS or Li rx.—Another fatal collision took plans on the Thames yeeterday, within a short distance of the spot where the melancholy catastrophe occurred between the Metis and Wentworth. A brigantine, laden with coal from New castle, belonging to Mr. Sainty, of Colchester, and com manded by Captain Green, was at anchor off Barking Creek, when the screw steamer Bolivar, on her passage down the river, laden with stores for the Abyssinian expe dition, ran foul of her, carrying away her masts and otherwise damaging her. The Bolivar's yards caught the masts of the brigantine, and the captain of the brigantine and one of the crew leaped overboard to escape the falling timber. A Guernsey man nattedGrostry, who formed one of the crew of the brigantine, was on the point of follow ing their example, when be was struck by one of the masts and killed on the spot. The captain sustained contusions on the head from the falling wreck, and a young fellow named Sainty, a nephew of the owner, bad his arm broken. The tide was at what is known as first quarter ebb. The b rig antine and another vessel were lying abreast, and it is said that the Bolivar intended to pass between the two, but suddenly changed her course, and in attempting to pass on the outside of the brigantine caught her in the manner described, and carried away both her masts. The body of the deceased was removed to Plumetead, where it awaits a coroner's inquest. It is worthy of remark that at the time information was brought to Plumetead of the disaster Mr. Carttar, the coroner, was holding an inquiry as to the collision between the Hetis and the Wentworth. The deceased resided in the neigh bourhood of St. Katherine's dock, endless the sole support, we understand, of a widowed mother and his sisters.

The sales of wool are confined to some special sorts, consisting of the best choice wools, of which the stocks are very far from large. Other classes of woo: are quite neglected. Although no quotable change has taken pleas in price since last week, yet the buyer has a slight advantage. In worsted yarns, the foreign houses are waiting the result of Leipsic fair. The demand, though very limited, Is still almost wholly confined to the hours trade. Some spinners continue moderately em. ployed in *la and 3ti's lustre and on 30's super, but these are quite exceptional cases. Prices are not lower than last week. The piece trade shows the same languor. Some manufacture's are going in 'bort time, and most people are of opinion that it would be bene ficial to adopt short time generally. Tee accounts from America are rather more hopeful, but there is hardly a n y change for the better. The foreign and home trades were equally languid. It is too early to place orders for sprig s; and merchants are now looking for novelties in fancy raj a for which orders will shortly be forthcoming when tka manufacturer is ready. The demand for plain goods is upon the whole extremely flat. Prices are still drooping.

BRISTOL, tiger. 98.-We had a good supply of beef at car market to-day, though it was considerably short of the very large number on offer last week. The Irish consign. ments were also shorter and scarcely numbered 100. Trade was dull, and it was late in the day before the stalls were cleared. Best descriptions realised from 65e. to 680., and in a few instances 70s. per cwt., but middling and interim' sorts only obtained from 60s. to 645. The supply of store cattle from Ireland woe rather larger than last week, and numbered about 1,000. Trade was hardly so brisk, bet prices remain firm for beet descriptions. We had a very fair supply of milch cows, for which there was a good demand, and prices were firm, beet descriptions realising from 181. to Z 31., and middling sorts from 141. to 171.
