*parting Inttittrsta. THE LATE DONCASTER hG• TO THII Etyma or TSB Wass& S —Surprises one after another greeted the in Conn at the late Doncaster Meeting. not only in connexion with the actual events that mime off on the Town Meer, but in the doings behind the scenes, the fact of a horse ostensibly belonging to the Duke of Beaufort Proving the St. Leger " dead 'un" of 1866 rather startling thou who had been led to believe his grace had same con sideration for the public at large, and was not one of the upholders of the tbeory—more lust than generous—that a gentleman can do anything with his own. It was not asserted, course, that Rust% was delibe rately " milked ;" and it was pretty well known both before and after the race at York, that the Duke had oven out be had no confidence in the horse, and did not believe he could stay ; nor was his right disputed to defer the scratching until he made sure the two he bad no ear thly chance with were " fit and well, and running for the money," more particularly as his grace had backed the brute some time ago; but what people looked at most was the large amount of money offered or betted against the Rustic by one of the influential of the Danbury stable for weeks before the race, and who backed Lord Lyon for tee times the money Mr. Sutton did , and as it is hinted he had an interest in the animal, it is naturally thought the Duke of Beaufort ought to have bad his eyes opened, and4tected his good name by striking Rustic out of the St. r the instant the York running proved to him the horse ' could not stay and had no cheese." There was a talk of a split in the cabinet just about that time, and the cu tthroat game played with Vauban and Ines on the Knavesmire did much to confirm the rumours; but it was never said that Rustic was a bone of contention, or that his starting, little as his grace thought of him, was even doubtful, and I should not be astonished to see the Duke of Beaufort's and Lord Hastings's horses trained in different stables before long, which would be as bad as breaking up " the Danebury party " altoget her it having been rumoured that the last - named noblemanintends to sell off nearly all his horses next month. That Rustic had no chance for the St. Leger was fully shown when Severnake on Friday gave him 51b, and best him far easier than he did Knight of the Crescent for second place, and it must be at least doubtful whether he would have been one of the first three on the longer course had he started. It is shown, too, that his defeat of Lord Lyon at Ascot was only a " duke," es must also have been the latter's over throw for the Doncaster Cup, as Rama gave him a good 141 b beating, having galloped him almost to a stand-still a q uarter of a mile from home. It is just possible, at the same time, that be did not like the distance—half as far again as the St Leger ; and that had Chaloner not been so tender on Savernake he would have run him down in the great struggle of Wednesday. However, the latter had been so hurriedly prepared that the Caller On hero dared not ride him in the least " jolly," and the Marquis of Ailesbury certainly possesses a most unlucky horse, that, with good health, should have won as much money as Achievement by this time. Lord Lyon's defeat can only be accounted for by supposing he had been indulged—as just before his overthrow at Ascot—and was stiff and sore after his great exertions on the Wednesday, and it is a pity Savernake is not in against him for the Grand Duke Michael at New market, wherein his lordship has to give 12lb to Knight of the Crescent across the flat,and it is very doubtful if he can do it. Rustic has a chance of meeting him over six fur longs in the Houghton week, and a race between the pair at such a distance would be vastly inteiesting. Lord Lyon's disgrace, with 5 and 6 to b 1 on him, was not the only sur prise of the week by many, very few first or second favourites pulling through during the four days, and I should not like to have to settle some of the accounts of the " gentlemen," who had one of the meet disastrous weeks recorded against them that I can remember. But for the succession of " turns up, the racing generally would have been rather tame, for " very few " Derby" colts contested the many two-year-old races that came off, and those that did show were proved immea surably inferior to Achievement. There is, however, the making of three good horses in Grand Crus, Star of India, and the brother to Ascham ; and it was quite a pleasure to see the colours of three such noblemen as possess thee borne to victory by youngsters that promise so well as regards the future. That the calibre of this year's fillies is most wretched was fully displayed when Tormentor was distanced for the Queen's Plate by Regalia, who appears to be running into her old form, and as the latter's owner is also in possession of Caithness, who won the Great Yorkshire Handicap so easily, beating Rama among others, Mr. " Palmer " must be looked after for the Cesarewitch, for all the weight carried by his pair. Little was done during the whole week, notwithstan di ng ,to spoil either of the two handicaps that are to wind up the great events of the season ; and after the " scratching" of Thalia (another " gentleman's horse"), the best that can be done with them is to hold off until the last moment, as the " milking" threatens to be something fearful, and I do not feel partial to one of the present favourites, the " play men" being not unlikely to secure the two prizes. Nor are any of the meetings set for the current week worth enter ing into, they being got up chiefly for the amusement of holiday folks, and not for the sake of promoting the national pasti m e.—l sin, he ., METEOR. I3ETTING IN LONDON.-SATURDAY. The calm which usually prevails after a great race meet ing was observable at the clubs to-day ; not only was there a thin assemblage, but the business transected was limited and devoid of interest. Speculation was mainly directed to the Cesarewitch, for which event Potomac, coming with strong credentials from Doncaster, was backed at the short odds of 11 to 2, and so general appears to be the desire to get on this reputed " good thing " of Lord West moreland's, that for the moment nopther hone in the race meets with any material support.

LOaT AMONG THE HlLLS.—Great excitement was caused in Clova and neighbourhood on Sunday evening by the report that a woman named Mrs. Wilson, from Glasgow, who had set out from the Kirkton during the afternoon with the intention of going to Loch Brandy, had not returned. The mist, which was on the hill tops all day, grew much denser towards nightfall, and the woman being a perfect stranger to the hills, great fears were enter tained for her safety. About nine o'clock three parties of men, provided with lanterns, proceeded to the loch, and searched until about three in the morning without success. At daybreak the search was renewed, and the mist having now cleared off • little, every one was sanguine of success. But up to nine o'clock no trace of the woman was found. The company then set out from the Parkha4 and divided into two parties, one of which proceeded to the Earl of Dalhousie's forest. The other beat the southern slope of the Clove hills. The former, happily, were successful in discovering the object of their anxious search. It appears the unfortunate woman had never got to Loch Brandy at all, but getting bewildered in the mist had wan dered several miles into the forest, where she had passed the night amid the darkness and rain. It was about four o'clock in the afternoon when she was discovered. She was not so much exhausted as might have been expected from the exposure, want of food, and her thin attire, but she bad almost given up hopes of ever getting back to her friends. The few friendly sheep who had kept beside her all night were gone, and she had written on her watch the last words she ever thought she would write on earth. After • little refreshment, Mrs Wilson was conducted back to the Kirkton, and having got a night's rest was conveyed to Kirriemuir the next day. —Dundee Advertiser. A SCOTCH TOWN COUNCIL ON THE BRITIBII Asso- CIATION.—The Glasgow Herald contains the following nor ' rative of some curious proceedings at the meeting of the Brechin Town Council on Wednesday last. The clerk read a letter from the local secretaries of the British Association 1 at Dundee, requesting the co-operation of the council in order to m ake next year's meeting • successful one, and to appoint a committee for endeavouring to insure that object The Provost—They are looking for a sum of money, that is quite clear. Mr. P. Guthrie—l think the money might be spent in • better way. All that I know is that at the meeting at Nottingham this year they have propa gated infidel principles, and that is the only thing I know they have done. The Provost—Yes ; I think that on some other points, again, they have given us some additional in foination. Bailie Craig—There is one thing to be said ; if men spread infidel opinions, there is su ffi cient infor mation in the public press to put it down ' • and I believe that re ligion will never collapse by any attack of so-called science. Mr. P. Guthrie—l quite agree with you. The question is, are we to encourage it! Bailie Craig—l would not en couruge anybody to propagate and disseminate infidel opinions, but I believe that science, properly so called, meat always be consistent with religion, and what is in the Bible; and there are sufficient defenders of the faith to refute any charges that may be brought against the truths contained in the Bible. There are so many much abler defenders of the faith than those who attack it, that, in my opinion, the truth will come out untarnished. My motto is—" Mafraa est amigos et preevalebit." The Provost —There is one thing I am very glad to see, that Bishop Forbes has prepared and published • letter encouraging all parties to study, in order to be able to meet these infi del opinions at Me next meeting, when there will be • fair battle. Mr. P. Guthrie—l quite agree with you but I don't see that it is necessary for us to encourage such an association. Bailie Craig—We don't encourage anybody to propagate heretical opinions. We rather encourage indi viduals to defend what we call the doctrines of the faith, which will be done at the subsequent meeting, I have not the slightest doubt. I see • very great deal of discussion has taken place upon Grove's speech, and very able argu ments have already been brought forward against it. I don't think we need at all be discouraged. Mr. P. Guthrie —I don't believe but that these people will be driven down very shortly ; but if that association is for the purpose of inculcating infidel doctrines, I don't see what necessity we have to encourage it. As I have said already, I beeve these men will be thoroughly driven down. Mr. Mill — The association takes all and sundry It is just as well that their opinions should be ventilated and exposed. Mr. P. Guthrie—lf you like to encourage that sort of thing— Mr. Mill—l will encourage the association, but not infi delity. Mr. P. Guthne—Very well; if you will en courage it, just do it, Mr. Mill. Mr. Mill—But you cannot help it. The Provost—lt is but a small section of the association. I don't know how many sections there may be. I was just in • small section. Mr. P. Guthrie — It is the section that bears upon the truth of the Bible. The Provost—Grove, being president of the association, should never have led off with that sort of thing. If he had confined the subject to his being the convener of a section it would not have been so objectionable. But it is rather • question we should not enter into jest now. I move that the letter lie on the table till next meeting. This was unanimously agreed to. EDZICILAIS AND LITTLE BYTHAM RAILWAY.

The Orontes, 2, irokscrew troop ship, Captain H. W.

She left Plymouth on the Saturday t ne af e ternoon previous, and was within thirty miles of nstown at 11 o'clock on Sunday morning, when a fog came over, and the ship was hove to. Just after 3it cleared off, but as the Orontes was unable to make the harbour before dark, she was hove to until daylight on Monday morning ; but in the meantime a tremendous gale set in, and she was kept outside until Tuesday evening. The gale was terrific, and the sails were split and spars snapped, being utterly unable, strong as they were, to resist the faros of the win d. The engines steamed easily a-bead to keep steerage way on the ship, but everything moveable was displaced, the chests taking license to turn over as by their own will and p'essure. Green seas tumbled over into the ship fore and aft and great quantities of water found their way into the stoke hole through the gratings, but the ship behaved ex tremely well, and established her reputation of a first-rate sea boat. Two or three boats were smashed, and it was neoessary to get one on board to prevent it from being carried away. Several of the crew, we understand, re ceived alight injuries during the violent rolling of the ship as she plunged from the top of the seas into the trough beneath, and one petty offiser had his wrist broken.

PERILOUS ADVENTURE IN THY SOLWAY.---The storm-tossed Solway Frith has often, and recently, been the scene of dangerous adventures ; but it may be doubted if any of them surpassed in perilousinterest a voyage made on Monday and Tuesday last, in a little boat. About ten o'clock on Monday morning a crew of four persons started from Silloth for Annan. Their names were Captain John eon, Mr. George Stodart, and a young man named Proud, all of Silloth ; and Mr. Thomas J ohnson, relieving o ffi cer, of Carlisle. The object of the voyage was to bring back the hull of a large boat belonging to Mr. Stodart, which is intended for a yacht, and the sail was expected to be a pleasant one. The morning was fine, and with a favouring wind, the little boat scudded away to the Scotch aide, and right up the river to Annan. But in coming back the troubles of the voyagers began. The wind was now against them, and the difficulty of drag ging the hulk behind them became at once apparent. The wind and tide drove them at will, and it was not till • fishing boat came to their help that they were able to get fairly away from land. Drifting, rather than steering, they toiled along the Scotch aide, keeping as far as possi ble the boat's head pointed towards Skinburnesa ; but sail nor oar could oope with the wind and ebb tide. Towards four o'clock in the afternoon they found themselves being driven upon the great sand bank opposite Silloth and about midway in the Frith. " Pull Tom, pull Captain," shouted the helmsman, but all the pulling at command was unavailing, and the hulk grounded. There was nothing for it but to make the best of the situation, and the party quietly resolved to wait till the tide flowed again. The• position was observed from Silloth, and a boat, with provisions, &a, was sent out. The men left the boat, on the edge of the hank, stripped and crossed a big channel, and handed the necessaries to their tide bound friends, with the intimation that, as soon as the dock gates were opened, Captain Matthew Irving would come out and bring the boat and the hulk over with the ettamtug. So the party dropped anchor, made merry, and awaited their deliverance. But darkness came on, and with it a rough tide, a high wind, and a downpour of rain. In a short time the sea was rushing with • roar over the sandbank, and preparations were at once made to start sail. A light was carried from the hulk to the boat, with the intention of hoisting it on the mast ; and Captain Johnson and Proud got into the boat for that purpose. They had no sooner set foot on the little craft than she broke from her moorings, the tow rope snapped, and away she flew with lightning speed back towards Scotland. The light was seen for a moment, like a star, and then disappeared. Mr. Stodart and Mr. John son were left together in the hulk, but in pitch darkness. She tossed and plunged in the heavy sea, threatening at every lurch to drag her anchor. There was nothing to make a light of, except pocket handkerchiefs, when the thought struck them to unravel some of the rope and set fire to it. Several bits of rope were teased, but in at tempting to strike a light, both men were over and over again pitched from side to aide of the vessel. At last • light was got, and 0,0 after another the rope ends were fired. They waited long and anxiously for the coming of the tug, dreading every moment being cast loose without oars or sails. Towards eleven °Week they saw a light twinkling out of the harbour, but whether it was that of the steam tug or of the steamship going to Liverpool, theyjeould not tell. Another suspense, and they fancied they heard the noise of the paddle wheels, when up went another fiery rope end, which was responded to by cheers, which in turn were answered by the two forlorn adventurers. After* good deal of trouble, on so want of the force of wind and tide, the tug got round, threw a double hawser, and the hulk was safely fastened. Then the wrecked pair had a long pull to get up the anchor, which being done, tag and hulk est cif to find] the little boat. After a long cruise a dipping light was seen in the direction of Annan, and the boat was found at last. Fortunately a second anchor bad been found, which was let go, or there is no knowing what might have been the fate of the little craft. It was two in the morning before the rescued adventurers were safely landed at Silloth, thoroughly drenched and worn out.

SINGULAR PROSECUTION IN IRELAND. —A prose cution has been instituted by the sessional crown solicitor of Pomeroy, in the county of Tyrone, against a number of Roman esthetics, for—in the phraseology of the indictment —" unlawfully assembling with arms, to the terror of her Majesty's peaceable subjects, in that town on the 12th of July." About eight o'clock in the evening the chapel bell was rung, when nearly a thousand of the Roman catholic population from the surrounding district, most of them armed with guns, assembled in Pomeroy. Tbey were evidently well organised, for they marched in regular order to the beat of drums, instantly attended to such military instructions as " Right about face," and fired about 500 shots. They offered no violence, however, to any one ; and the defence made by their counsel, after en ineffectual attempt by the parish priest, the Rev. Mr. M'Kenna, to get the proceedings quashed, on the ground that no occurrence of thekindliadevertaken place in the neighbourhood before, and the prosecution would engender • bad feeling between the protestant, and the Roman catholics, was, that Mr. M'Kenna had received an anonymous letter, ostensibly from an Orangeman, indirectly intimating that his chapel would be destroyed on the 12th, and that it was solely to protect it they had assembled. Mr. M'Kenna, on being erose-exemined, admitted that. he did not believe the threat in the letter would be carried out, and when asked why be did not communicate its contents to the magic trace, added that "be did not want to raise any alarm." He could not account, he further said, for such a large number of persons as a thousand collecting in the town, as he only showed the letter to two persons. The magis trates sent nine of the prisoners for trial.

HANBION-HOBBB. A rather amusing occurrence took place at this court. A well -dressed man, apparently of the Jewish persuasion, applied to Alderman J. C. Lawrence for a warrant against a person who, he said, was continually threatening him with violence, and who, he apprehended, intended to do him serious bodily injury. He went into a long detail of his alleged grievances, and while he was speaking he was interrupted by another person, apparently a Jew, who said he wished to address the court. Alderman Lawrence inquired who this person was, and the first man told him that be was the man he had been referring to, and against w hom he wished to obtain the warrant. Alderman Law rence said as this was the case, and both parties were present, he would hear what the other man had to ray. Upon this the man complained of went into s statement of thl t r i . t ances he was subjected to by the other, and out that he was the really injured party. Alderman Lawrence, however, cat them short by saying that he had heard quite enough to justify him in ooming to the oonclusion that the best thing to do was to order them both to enter into a recognisance to keep the peace towards each other. Both parties accordingly pelled to enter into the required recognisance , and they retired amid a good deal of laughter in the court. MARYLEBONE. Jas. Jura, 25 living at 3, Haverstook-road,Kentis h- town, was charged with burg's:lonely breaking and entering the home No. 2A, Lansdowne-terrace, Camden-town, and steal ing therefrom • quantity of silver plate and wearing appa rel value 201., the property of Mr. Frederick Stevens, att!orney-at-law. Mr. L. Lewis attended on behalf of the prisoner. On the night of Tuesday, the 4th inst., prosecutor se cured all the windows and doors of his house before he went to bed, and on the following morning, at six o'clock, hews. awoke by his servant, and on going down to the kitchen he found the door open (it had been opened from the inside and by some person who must hav en in the house when Mr. Stevens went to bed). The contents of a chest of drawers were strewn about the floor, and the plate-basket nearly emptied. From inquiries made, prosecutor found that the prisoner was courting his maid-servant, and was engaged to be married to her. On two occasions he had seen the pri soner and his servant conversing together near the hou. e. Inspector Nicks (S division) deposed that from informa tion received. he, on the night of the Gth inst went to the beer - house where the prisoner lodged, and t ook with him a police sergeant and a constable. They found the prisoner undressed and in the act of getting into bed. The prisoner denied all knowledge of the burglary ; but on searching a box a silver fork was found, which prosecutor identified as being his property. Hannah Suriety, proaocutor's servant, said the fork pro duced was in use at one o'clock on the 6th inst, therefore it could not have been stolen at the time. On the night before the burglarly she saw all the doors end windows in the house securely fastened, and on coming downstairs the following morning she found all the windows still fastened, but the kitchen door was wide open, the plate gone, sr d the contents of the kitchen drawers scattered shoat the floor. The prisoner had courted her about six months. Police-constable Madgetta, 74 S, deposed to finding the fork in the prisoner's box. Prosecutor's housekeeper and her daughter swore that the fork produced was in use several times after the bur glary had been committed, and it was pretty broadly hinted that the constable had placed the fork in the pri soner's box before be found it. Evidence was then given to show that the prisoner had several times been convicted of felony, and, at the present time, held a tiket-of -leave. He has a wife and family in the country. It eras further proved that the prisoner had several times slept in prosecutor's house when that gentleman and his family were in the country. The case stands remanded for a week. THIS FATAL COLLISION OFF TEE SUFFOLK COAST. After our report left on Saturday, the court, after an hour's deliberation, returned with the following judgment, which was read by the clerk :—" After a careful consideration of all the circumstances at tending this lamentable collision, and maturely weighing the evidence adduced on behalf of the re spective vessels, as well as the evidence of those wit nesses who were not interested in the question, the court have come to the conclusion that John Boom, the chief mate of the Bruiser, committed a grave error of judgment in mistaking the masthead light of the Haswell for the riding light of a vessel at anchor, as it appears clearly from the evidence of the mate of the Grenadier that all the lights of the Haswell were distinctly to be seen at a considerable distance a few minutes before the collision. From the evidence of the witnesses of the Grenadier, in corroboration of the officer on look out on board the Haswell, the Bruiser was, no doubt, on the port bow of the Haswell, and, had a better look-out been kept, ought to have seen the red light of the Haswell, if not before, at all events on passing the Grenadier, and in sufficient time to have ported his helm, and have avoided the collision. It was contended on the part of the mate of the Bruiser that the Grenadier might have inter cepted the view of the side lights of the Haswell until the former had passed the Bruiser, and that the mate might have been confused by the brightness of the lights that had just been passe d. The court cannot assume this to have been the case, in the absence of positive proof, and it can only be heard in mitigation of his fault , and will, no doubt, be taken into consideration by the Board of Trade, on an •ipplication for a renewal of his certificate, which, under the very serious circumstances of this case, the court feel it n , in the execution of its very responsible ce duty, to ean , and it is hereby cancelled from this date. The court have no reason to attribute any portion of the blame of this collision to the officer in charge of the Haswell, and therefore return him his certificate." ffir.Trsill remarked that the decision might be considered , severe, as affecting the chief mate of the Bruiser, but ' having due regard for thecirenmstances of this very serious occurrence, they deemed it more prudent to leave the con sideration of his position to the Board of Trade than to pass a more mitigated sentence than they had done. The proceedings then terminated. THE EARTHQUAKE rig FRANCE.—The Mc . . of yesterday gives some particulars of this pheno mena. At Paris the shock was felt most distinctly In the IGth Arrondissement. In the Rue Holier* the house No. 4 was so shaken that the residents were suddenly awakened out of sleep, and fled in great alarm. At Boulogne and Anteuil the beds were shaken, and glasses standing near one another on tables and shelves were heard ringing. At Creteil, Montretout, Ville d' Array, and Haut &nes, similar phenomena were observed. At Tours nearly all the inhabitants were roused from sleep. A correspondent there writes to the Patric that he was rocked in his bed like a child in a cradle. At one of the principal hotels of the town a cornice was thrown down, and at one of the cafés all the beer in the cellar was thickened. At Limoges a strongly pronounced vibratory movement from east to south was felt for three seconds. Similar amounts are transmitted from Rouen, Nantes, Angora, and Amos. leme. The shock lasted about six seconds and was 'coons. parried by a dull heavy sound. The barometer fell six millimetres. THE HaavEer IN LINCOLNSHIRE.—The harvest has closed very unfavourably in Linoolnahire. In the Spalding district a considerablo quantity of grain has not yet been secured. About Brigg the straw of the last wheat carted had become discoloured, and many of the ears which had rested on the ground exhibited sprouts an inch in length. Floods accumulated last week in the low-lying district, about lincoln ; much corn will be damaged in consequence. A good deal of corn is stated to be still " out" about Alford. In the Kirton Lindsey district, heavy crops of barley are now much sprouted, and, under the moat favourable circumstances, the damages, will be considerable. THE HARVEST IN THE NORTH or SCOTLAND. — The Baeffshare Journal gives numerous reports from the counties of Banff, Aberdeen, Moray, Inverness, and other northern counties on the state of the harvest and crops. These returns are all made within the last two or three days. Their general tenour is that the oat crop is light all over the north, good crops of grain being the exception. Wheat and barley, on the one hand, are, generally speak ing, food crops, and fully an average. Turnips are very good in Morayshire and Nairnshire, but in many portions of Banffshire and Aberdeenshire are greatly affected by anbury. Potatoes promise nearly everywhere to be more than an average. There are some manifestations of disease, but they are as et triffinE—Edtnssirg , Courant. ESCAPI OF FENIAN FRISONERB FROM CAN A telegram of the 2nd, from Ottawa, says :—" Ottawa was startled to-day by the telegraphic announcement that Mike Murphy, and five of his pri n cip al companions, all Fenian*, had escaped from the at Cornwall, and made their way across the river to t e United States. The greatest excitement prevails at this moment. It appears that the escape was e ff ected last night during a - heavy rain storm through an aperture made by the prisoners in the wall of their Dell. There was a whole company of soldiers on duty around the p which, besides, is con sidered the most secure in Car d a. A double iillll of sentinels guarded the prison night and day. A large camp was in the vicinity, and the gunboat Royal watched the river. Some are of opinion that there were Fenian among the guard, and others that they must hays been drunk or asleep." Murphy and the other escaped prisoners arrived in Buffalo on the 4th.

The following is the official return of deaths from cholera and diarrhom registered on Friday, 14th ember : Mamba& ...• 000000 0 1 Cholera. 'West &Arida 2 North districts • 4 Central districts East districts 8 South districts l3 Total in London CARDINAL COLLIN AND MR CHOLERA. Cardinal Cullen has issued a circular to his clergy oa the subject of cholera and the bad harvest weather, which his eminence well points out are not to be attributed to the British government, but to the chastening hand of God. Re thus exhorts his Sock :—" In conclusion, reverend brethren, while exhorting your flocks to have recourse to Heaven in the present dangers, yon will not forget to admonish them to prevent the spread of contagion by adopting the precautions recommended or prescribed by medical skill or the authorities of the city. Endeavour to induce the poor to cleanse and whitewash their houses or their rooms, to remove all nuisances far from their dwell ings, to be careful of their diet, avoiding bad vegetables and unripe fruit. Exhort them also to abstain from drunkenness, the fatal source of many of the evils that afflict their country, and the cause of the eternal ruin of innumerable precious souls. It is admitted by all that this dwading vice frequently occasions cholera, increases its virulence, and renders its votaries unable to bear the violence with which it assails a shattered constitution, so that a drunkard attacked by it is almost always doomed to certain death ; whereas the sober and temperate man is generally safe from the assaults of this destructive malady, or able to overcome it." CHOLERA HOSPITAL, CONIMNRCIAL-STREZT.—DRT ing the last five days 38 patients have been admitted into this hospital. Of this number 28 were cases of severe Asiatic cholera and 10 came of severe diarrhces. There have been 18 deaths in the hospital from cholera during these five days. Of the 28 cholera cases admitted in the five days, 16 have died. During Monday last there were six cases of cholera admitted ; of these one died on the day of admission, three next day, and two on the third day. It is the exception to have a case of cholera from the neighbourhood that suffered most during the epidemic. The cases have come from Shoreditch, Spits:l:- fields, Bethnal-green, and one from Hackney-wick. CHOLERA ORPHANS. —A deputation from the com mittee of the Orphan Working School attended at the Mansion-house, on Thursday, to place at the disposal of the cholera committee the recommendation of 20 cases, selected, as in their judgment, most deserving the relief which this asylum affords. This offer being unconditional, was oordially received, and the deputation informed that the local committees would be made acquainted with it. The committee of the charity invite applications for the special October election. The office is at 56, Ludgate-hill. MARKETS. HARDWARE.—Bianumiten, Bar. 15.—The state of the trade of this town has altered very little for the last month or six weeks. Manufacturers do not complain of depression, but simply that orders are smelt. There are, however, indications of improvement, and there is leas in the way of making up goods for stock. The ooun.ry iron mongers seem now to prefer ordering just sufficiently to meet their immediate requirements to stocking them s lves for the ensuing season trade. So long as that feel ing prevails, manufacturers will be closely up with their orders. In the metal trades generally there is a little more animation, and • better demand for material is experienced. The electro-platers are doing more business, as are also the tin-plate workers. The edge-tool trade continues dull. In the foreign department business con tinues quiet. A meeting of the creditors of Mr. David Murray, contractor, of this town (and who has • large government contract at Plymouth) was held yesterday : the total liabilties to unsecured creditors were putdown at 51,048/. ; assets, 7,0001. A general assignment was offered, and accepted. COTTON.—LivimooL, Bur. 15.—We have had a good demand to-day, and ► very firm market, with hardening prices. The sales are 12,000 bales, of which 3,000 are for export and speculation. COTTON GOODS.—fiLticfinem, Si,?. 15.—The dul ness and depression which prevailed last week, though relieved a little on Wednesday and Thursday, owing to an improvement of the weather, continues to the close of the week, and the market both for yarn and cloth is veil , that. Water twist, in the absence of much demand for the continent, is flat. In molt descriptions of yarn rather lower prices would have to be taken to command bush ess. Exporters do not appear disposed to operate. On Wednesday there was a little more activity in yarns suitable to Blackburn sheeting., but a return of wet weather appears to have dis couraged buyers, and the market has relapsed into its previous dulness so far as these and other yarns are con cerned. Doubled yarns are still in little request, and fine counts have lost nearly ld.per lb. during the week. The heavy decline in the Bolton class of yarns reported eight or ten days ago appears to have attracted the attention of buyers, and they will probably be in more demand if the weather should improve. In cloths more attention has been directed to printers, but there has not been much business resulting. Shirting* are very difficult of bale, and lower prices would have to be accepted. Heavy cloths are also a good deal neglected. Shirting. were rather more saleable ou Thursday, but there was no disposition to give anything beyond the present depreseed rates, and the couraging tel front India have had the effect of dis posing merchants to hold off again. WOOLLEN.—Lame. SEPT. 15.—There has been a better attendance at the cloth halls this morning than of late - a greater amount of speculation has been shown un the ;Art of buyers, and the aggregate amount of business transacted has been of a more satisfactory character than we have recently had to report. Along with the usual attendanoeof Leeds merchants we note the ap co of a few buyers from the Iduddorshelcl and ord shipping houaes in the market. In the coloured hall tweeds - have again been in chief request, mediums and high classes being mostly in demand ; steels and blue mixtures have been the prevailing colours; several large parcels have changed hands. A moderate amount of business has also been transacted in mixture nieltens ; blue shades here also hav ing a preference. Plain cloths have not been much in re quest. In the white market the inquiries for hairlists have been well sustained ; a few large parcels have been trans ferred in good makes. Heavy goods have met with pur chasers to a moderate extent, though purchases are now cautiously made in these classes. Bates are without alte ration.
