MONEY MARKET. CITY NEWS, YESTERDAY. The Stock Exchange will be closed on Saturday nest, the Ist of NoTember, that being one of the days for striking the half-yearly balance at the Bank of England, where the transfer offices will be shut. About £15,000 in gold was withdrawn from the Bank today for exportation, while £3,000 was sent in. The Europa, from Boston, has brought £54,000 in specie. The wheat market to-day was firm, and in some cases a trifle dearer than on last Monday. The Liverpool cotton market was heavy, and the sales were limited to 1,500 bales. The Brighton Railway traffic return shows this week an increase of £2,013, and the South-Eastern an increase of £1,596. The revolotion in Greece has caused attention to be turned to the virtually repudiated Bonds of that country, and the price has risen from 81 to 9 to 10 to 1, hopes being entertained that better and more honest principles of government will prevail under the new administration. On Saturday next an instalment of 10 per cent. falls due on the Turkish Loan, and 241 per cent. on the second issue of the Egyptian Loan, less the amounts already paid in full. An instalment of 18 per cent. was also fixed as payable on the Vene zuelan Loan on the same day, but, as previously mentioned, has been deferred, pending the receipt of the ratification of the contract. On Monday next a payment of five per cent. is due on the Por tuguese Loan. CITY NEWS---THIS DAY. CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. _ . The increased exportation of silver to the East, and of gold to the Continent, is attracting attention in monetary and commercial circles, because it tends to strengthen the impression that the movement, if continued, may, in conjunction with other influences, lead to greater firmness in the rates of discount. The immediate demand is therefore stimulated by a desire on the part of many engaged in trade to pro vide for their wants at once, and for the same rea son bankers and brokers require full rates for all the business they negotiate. Although the com mercial requirements continue very moderate, the supplies of capital are still very abundant, and the minimum of the Bank of England remains at 2 per cent. The advices from New York to the 17th instant, via Halifax, state that continued excitement pre vailed in financial and commercial circles. Gold and exchange weze rapidly advancing, and stocks and produce were affected in a proportionate degree. The New York City Bank's statement for the week showed an increase of £923,570 in the loans, of £187,000 in the bullion, and of £1,000,000 in the deposits, compared with the previous return. An extraordinary meeting of the Nerbudda Coal and Iron Company has been called for the 17th prox., for the purpose of increasing the capital of the company from £120,000 to £250,00), and other special business. There is an increase of £2,013 in the traffic re ceipts of the Brighton Railway for the past week, and £1,597 on the South Eastern. On the Dutch-Rhenish Railway the returns for the fortnight ending the 11th inst. were £9,110 against £8,333 at the corresponding period of last y ear. Business in the Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets during the last few days continued rather inactive. For tea, however, there has been a fair inquiry. Sugars, coffee, and rice have remained - without any material alteration, while saltpetre and tallow have slightly declined, P.Y.C. on the spot being quoted 475. 3d.; end of the year, 475. 6d. ; and spring delivery, 478. 9d. per cwt. Two O'CLOCK. The market for the English Funds, which closed yesterday very heavily, has shown ratner more firmness to-day, although the transactions have been exceedingly limited. Consols are now quoted 931 for transfer and the 6tb inst.—a re covery of 1 per cent.—and a better feeling is mani fested. Speculation is dull, and the dealings for ,delivery create little animation. The New Three per Cents. and the Reduced are fiat at 911 ; the New 21 per Cents., 771 ; Exchequer Bills, 183. to 223. prem.; and ditto June, 17s. to 18s. prem. ; India Stock, 230; and the 5 per Cent., 1091 1. In the Foreign department the only movement of importance has been in Greek Bonds, which at one period touched 13—a rise of 3 per cent—and are now 121. Mexican Stock is steady at 321 33. Brazilian are flat at 100. Chilian 3 per Cents. 781 ; Egyptian, 90. Portuguese Scrip is flat at 21 t prem. Russian paid-up ditto is 95. Spanish are 541 ; ditto Passive 21Z ; ditto Certificates 91 ; Italian 711 ; and Venezuelan 291. Turkish 6 per Cents., 1854, are 82 83; ditto, 1858, 691 ; ditto New Loan 671 681 ; and the Consolides 371 1. The dealings in the Railway Share Market to day were in a great measure connected with the settJement of the half monthly account. There was a rather short supply of stock on offer, and prices in most instances exhibited increased depression. Caledonians, Great Easterns, London and Brighton, and South-Westerns, declined 55.; London, Chat ham, and Dover, 103.; and Midlands, 155.; North- Westerns, North-Easterns (Berwick), and South- Easterns, however, improved about ss. In the Foreign and Colonial undertakings there was very little change of importance in values. Joint-Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares were dull, and in some instances rather flatter.

In its present modified fo rm it w th a e s less late objectionable, and deserved a fair and honest trial, but the mode of promulgating it, affecting as it did very materially all who were engaged in school in s tr uction, had greatly shaken the confidence of the country. In reference to the proposed revision of the liturgy, his lordship said he had on a former occasion expressed his objection to any alteration, and he had seen no reason to alter his opinion. Re re gretted that fewer men than formerly came from the Uni versities to offer themselves as candidates for holy orders.

THE SUN I LONDON, TUESDAY EVEN ENG, ocro3Ett 28, 1862. Business done POLICE-THIS DAY, NARLBOROUGH-STREE T . 103 k I MITIIDTIROITS ASSAULT THROUGH JEALOUSY.—CharIes Rummell, a respectable-looking young man, a tailor, re siding at 69, Berwick street, was charged, before Mr. Tyrwhitt, with the following violent assault on Jonas Nord, a foreign tailor, residing at 15, King-street, Soho. The pririoner's wife, a rather good-looking young woman, was in cour t. The complainant, whose head was bandaged, said—One day last week I employed a young woman to work for me. She did not come the next day, but on Saturday came for her day's pay. Yesterday morning I met her out, and she asked me how business was. Last night I went to her house, 69, Berwick-sreet, to tell her whether I wanted her or not, and when (she came down she asked me to step up. I went upstairs. I sat down and she said she had been out that day and earned a shilling. The prisoner directly after came in and said something to the female, and asked what business I had, and then stooped down, I then felt some thing on my head and found that I was dreadfully cut. My head bled dreadfully, and the blood poured down like water. 104 105 IL6I i Mr. Tyrwhitt —How did you get the cuts on your head ? Complainant—H e did it with the chamber and cut my head. Some of the pieces broke in my head and were taken out last night. The room wad, directly after I was struck, put in darkness. I scrambled down to the street, and there found that 1 was drenched in blood. Mr. Tyrwhitt he say anything about your being there ? Complainant---He asked what my business was. The young woman did no t say any thi n g. Prisoner threw the article at me, and then the light went out. The follo w i ng cert ifi cate was handed to Mr. Tyrwhitt : "This is to certify that Jonas Nord has received several severe incised wounds on his temple and forehead, and they. may be attended with danger. " Joim OSCAR, Surgeon, 4, Tyler-street." Prisoner to complainant—Were you not at my house on Sunday night week ? 102/ Complainant—Yes, but I did not go upstairs.

Prisoner—Why could he not have told her about business when he met her ? Complainant —She made an appointment for me to come to the house. Prisoner —You came with a bad intention. You sat by my fire, and I certainly did make a blow at you. I could not help doing it. Davidson, 301 A, said—The complainant came to the station covered with blood, and by direction of Inspector Bowler I went to 69, Berwick-street, and took the prisoner into custody. I asked the prisoner why he assaulted the man, and he said, " What business has he with my wife. If he comes again, I'll serve him the same." The wife was not then present. Mr. Tyrwhitt—Prisoner, you were rather hasty. The man is a foreigner, and there might have been nothing in his going to your house whatever. I must remand you for a week, but I will take one bail in £l5 for your appearance. SPORTING - THIS DAY. NEWMARKET RACES.-THIS DAY. BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH. £5O PLATE.

GREAT PUBLIC NuisANcl.—A person of :gentlemanly appearance and address came to this court, and upon the magistrate taking his seat upon the bench, stated himself to be Mr. Gage, and besought the magistrate to give him such advice and assistance as he best could, to do away with a most intolerable nuisance, which was dangerous to the nublic. Applicant said that the nuisance in question was a hoard ing in Cheyne-walk, Chelsea, which had been placed there owing to the new buildings in Oakley -street. Mr. Paynter said it was a matter, he thought, for the parish authorities, and inquired whether he had been to them. Mr. Gage handed up some correspondence which he had with the vestry of St. Luke's, Chelsea, but from whom he had received no redress, although they admitted they had the power to comply with his desire. Mr. Paynter wished to know the nature of the nuisance? Mr. Gage said that the hoarding was 14 feet high, pro jecting over the path at an angle of 40 degrees, and with the pressure of materials and the power of the wind, it was feared that it would fall, and injure some one. The vestry admitted their power, but did nothing—they kept on de ferring, instead of acting, while the public was being en dangered. The vestry was comprised of builders and °there of that class, instead of representatives of the public. Mr, Paynter enquired LOW long the hoarding had been here. Mr. Gage replied nearly three months, during which time the application for its removal had been strongly made, as he had before said, without redress. Mr. Paynter observed that he had no power to assist the applicant. It was quite clear that the Vestry or Board of Works had power over the matter complained of, and were liable to be indicted if they did wrong. Applicant withdrew, SOUTHWARK. ARTFUL ROBBERY AT A RAILWAY STATION.—A young, well-dressed fellow, who gave the name of Edward Welsh, was brought before Mr. Burch= charged with stealing a sovereign and a half from the person of Mrs. Elizabeth Bryant on the arrival platform of the Souta-Eastern Rail way, London-bridge. The prosecutrix, an elderly lady, residing at Staplehurst, in Kent, said that yesterday afternoon she arrived at the London-bridge terminus from home. She had when she got out of the carriage a purse in her dress pocket, contain ing a sovereign and ten shillings in silver. While stand ing on the arrival platform waiting for her luggage, an officer came up to her and asked her to feel her pocket and see whether she had lost anything. She searched, and im mediately missed her purse and contents. She identified the purse produced as her property. Sergeant Scamwell, a detective offi cer , specially employed at the South Eastern Railway terminus, said he saw the prisoner lea ve t h e prosecutrix and hurr i e dly pass out •t the station towards the Brighton terminus. He took him into custody , and the purse belonging to the prose cutrix was picked up near the spot and handed to witness. The lady identified it and the contents as her property. On searching the prisoner's clothes he found holes in each pocket of his coat (nearly a new one), which enabled him to carry on his depredations unseen. In his pockets wit ness found two pounds four shillings and ninepence in sliver, all of which he believed the prisoner had stolen from ladies on the platform. Witness asked for a remand to give him an opportunity of making further inquiries. The prisoner, who did notideny stealing Mrs. Bryant's purse, but declared that the money found on him belonged to him, was remanded for a week. THAMES. DARING ROBBERY BY COSTERMONGERS. —John Hurd and James Jennings, costermongers, each about 19 years of age, were brought before Mr. Selfe, on remand, charged with entering a dwelling-house in the day-time and steal ing a table cover, a satin skirt, and other property valued at £4. It appeared from the evidence of Mrs. Rosa Myers, the wife of Napthali Myers, of No. 19, Bedford-street, Step ney, that she was keeping a house for invalids for the Baroness Rothschild, who maintained them at her own ex pense. On Monday, the 13th inst., l'Slra. Myers left home, and was away for three hours. On her return she found the parlour window open and the room in great confusion. The articles named in the charge sheet, which she valued a t £4, were missing. The prosecutrix had left her parlour window a little open when she left home for the purpose of ventilating the room. The evidence against the prisoners was positive. Ellen M'Grath, a respectable Irish girl only 10 years of age, and living with her mother at No. 18, St. John's-place, Stepney, went out on the 13th instant to fetch a half-pint of milk, and saw both prisoners leave,Mrs. Myers' dwelling, each with a bundle in his possession. They ran down the street and went into separate houses of ill-fame in the neighbourhood. The name of Jennings was on one house, and Bachelor on the other. When Hurd left the house of the prosecutrix he spoke to the girl and begged of her not to Fay anything. It also appeared that when the prisoners were taken into custody they were put into a cell with many others, and the girl picked them out from many others. They had been in custody before, and were persons of indifferent character. _ _ The prisoners, in defence, said they knew nothing of the robbery, and were not in Bedford-street on the 13th inst. Mr. Selfe said he was quite satisfied with the statement of Ellen M'Grath, and committed the prisoners for trial. Among the wonders of art criticism that we all hear this year in unexpected places, we came upon some . the other day from a nest of cr iti cs i n a corner o f an ()ram. bus. A young Creole pronounced emphatically and deci sively that a certain work was by far the finest picture in the Exhibition. " I don't remember who painted it," he said, " but it's a full length of a lady showing a red petti coat." " Ah, yes," said a thin, pale mechanic, " I know . a Gainsborough." "I think it was--she had laced boots" (c early, his notion of a chef. d' ceuv re was Mr. Grant's por trait of Mrs. Gaskell.) " I remember it well," said the mechanic, " that's a Gainsborough," and then proceeding, as a good Briton, to enlighte n th e s t ranger, " Gains borough," he said, "we consider the best of our English artists. Other men, Reynolds for example, give you colour and shape, but he gives you the real thing, a very fine painter is Gainsborough. W e " (it was the we national with an air of positive assumption never surpassed even by the we critical) "we consider him the best painter now living." Whereupon a fat, motherly woman opposite, with a market basket under her dirty shawl, chimed into the conversation, also for the instruction of the foreigner, saying, " I don't myself think very much of Reynolds, his colour is beautiful, but, then, you know, he is very much cracked, and he wants soul." W ere t h ese i mpress i ons from South Kensington? or were they echoes from that learned penny daily which, in a fine slashing leader, told the other morning how "we have heard of an imperium in imperio, but here We have imperii in imperiabus ?" BIGAMY. Joseph Pollard, 33, painter, was indicted for feloniously marrying Dinah Page, his first wife Sarah being still alive. The first marriage of the defendant had been an unfor tunate one, and some time ago in consequence of the con duct of his first wife a separation took place, and even tually he became acquainted with the young woman Page, whom he married. Both marriages having been proved the jury returned a verdict of guilty. The Recorder sentenced him to six months' imprisonment. Leopold Shocke was indicted for feloniously uttering a forged receipt for 640 yards of Scotch tweeds, with intent to defraud Thompson, Richardson, and others. The prosecution broke down and a verdict of not guilty was returned. Frederick Godwin was indicted for stea:ing 1,200 yards of silk value £l5l, and Joseph Burgoyne was indicted for feloniously receiving the same, well knowing it to be stolen. Both prisoners pleaded guilty. The Recorder sentenced Godwin to three years' penal servitude, and Burgoyne to nine months' imprisonment. NEW COURT. (Before the Common Sergeant,) RICK BURNING. Frederick Lecaille was indicted for feloniously setting fire to a rick of hay, the property of Charles Murray. The Common Sergeant, in passing sentence, said any thing more ridiculous than the defense of the prisoner, viz., that he was induced to fire the rick through distress and hunger, he could not imagine. It was impossible that any of the wants of the prisoner could have been satisfied by the wilful destruction of the property of a person with whom he had not the slightest knowledge. The Court had the power of awarding a very severe sentence,viz., 14 years penal servitude. He would not go that length in the present case, but, under all the circumstances, he should not feel justified in passing a less puni,htnent than eighteen months' imprisonment with hard labour. Two lads, named Charles Ellis and John Wilson, pleaded guilty to a similar offence. The Common Sergeant sentenced them each to eighteen months' imprisonment with hard labour. CRIME IN THE CITY OF LONDON. Yesterday a report, under the hand of the Lord Mayor, was forwarded to the Home Secretary, showing the state of crime in the city during the year just ended, on the 29th of September, as compiled from official records by Mr. Picker ing, the accountant at the justice-room of the Mansion house. The subject is treated under two principal divi sions—namely, indictable off-nees and offences determined summarily. Of indictable offences, 1,059 have been com mitted within the year, as compared with 1,0.9 in the pre vious one ; 689 persons in all were apprehended in respect of them, the women and girls being in the proportion of 146 to 543 of men and boys; 310 were discharged, and 379 committed for trial, as compared with 349 in 1861. There -were 255 cases of larceny from the person, 101 of lar ceny by servants, and 225 of simple larceny; 63 of embezzle ment, 65 of fraui, 38 of forgery, 46 of counterfeit coin, 36 of t t 2 e m o of t h is a t r 0 - b attempts f e e t l a s n u a i , c i l d e, of 2 arson, perjury,on, of 3 n 3 o n f r d a conspiracy, r,2 nfa murder, 2 of manslaughter, 2 of shooting at, wounding, &c., and housebreaking , rape,lof 35 of be bigamy, lofrchainikg into ldsteali shops andng,l9ofb urglary ware houses, 2 of highway robbery, 1 of horse- stealing, and 1 of threatening by letter, with a view to extort money. The p o pular notion that the tendency to suicide obtains most in the winter months, and especially in Novem ber, is reversed by facts in this case, for of 36 attempts 15 were made in the three summer months, as com pared with six in October, November, and December last, and as compared with seven and eight in the first two quar ters of the present year. Of attempts at suicide, 26 were by women, as compa red with 10 by men, and about the same proportion is shown for the previous year. It is agreeable to note the word nit against the heading " Lar ceny by servants in the Post-office," and that in the pre vious year there was only one case of that kind. Turning to the category of " Offences determined summarily," there have been of these 6,914 in all, or 5,633 males and 1,281 1 females during the year just ended, as compared with 5,749 in the preceding one. Of the 6,914 4,128 males and 724 females were convicted, and the rest, 2,062 in number, dis charged. There were 41 aggravated assaults on women and children, 634 common assaults, 353 cases of drunkenness, 81 of cruelty to animals, 86 of malicious and wilful damage and trespass, 51 under the Mutiny Act, none under the Volunteer Act, 4 Mercantile Marine offences, 410 of unlaw ful possession of goods, 2,223 offences against Police Acts not falling under special heads, 30 against the Customs and Excise Acts, 120 cases of larceny, 1,149 offences against the Stage and Hackney Carriage Acts, and under the head of offences against the Vagrant Act there were 148 cases of begging, 3 of " having no visible means of subsistence," 127 of being found in enclosed premises for unlawful pur pose, and 663 of frequenting places of public resort to com mit felon y. The total cost of the City Police establishment during the past year has been £50,296 odd, as compared with £49,662 in the previous one. The total numerical strength of the force is now 627, and is composed of " one commissioner who is not a constable," 1 superintendent, 14 inspectors, 64 sergeants, 516 constables, 20 supernumeraries, and 12 detective officers. Of the £50,296 there was dis bursed in salaries and pay £39,183, in round numbers ; in clothing and accoutrements, £2,669; in superannuations and gratuities, £2,404 ; in station-house charges, &c., £4,075: in miscellaneous charges, £1,584; and in allow ances and contingent expenses, £379 2s. Of "depredators, offenders, and suspected persons at large" the number is estimated at 214, viz., 92 men and 78 women, and 44 girls and boys, in about equal proportions, under 16 years of age. They are thus classified :-53 known thieves, 12 receivers of stolen goods, 48 prostitutes, 37 suspected persons, and 64 1 vagrants and tramps. There are also 77 houses of bad character, the resort chiefly of thieves and prostitutes. It remains to be added that the population of the city of Lon don at the last census was 113,267. PRICE OF GOLD The quotation of gold at Paris is about at par, and the short exchange on London is 25.20 per £1 sterling. On comparing these rates with the English Mint price of £3 17s. 100. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is about 1-10th per cent, dearer in London than in Paris. By advices from Hamburg the price of gold is 4251 per mark, and the short exchange on London is 13.51 per £1 sterling. Standard gold at the English Mint price is, therefore, at about the same price in London and Hamburg s s carce GA RDEN A Pfs E g o N I a P .. d A u T s H t , S a .— nd l p n eo s p o l m e are ediat put to many shifts to make good garden paths.

NEWMARKET HOUGHTON MEETING-MONDAY. The long programme issued from the office of the keeper of the Match-book proved attractive to a large amount of company for the last of Newmarket's six meetings, and brought many fashionables to the heath whose presence upon it we do not remember to have ever previously no ticed. Special trains from Bishopsgate brought full cargoes both on the previous evening and yesterday morning to the town, and caused speculation on the great event of the week to assume a somewhat definite shape. Umpire receded in the betting, and Limosina advanced; Aurelian was not so firm as on Thursday at Tattersall's ; and, of the out siders, Gorse and Oberon had a decidedly upward tendency. The Subscription-rooms were well attended, the Tarragona inquiry canvassed, and its decision anxiously looked for ward to. The running ground was rather holding, but a sharp wind helped to dry its surface, and before the day's racing was ended it was by no means bad goin g. Th first race afforded a curious inciden t ; it was a Han dicap Plate, for which 22 horses went to the post. The high wind blew the advance flag nearly to the g round, an d 17 horses ran the course through; in a few minutes the starter pronounced it to have been " no start," and the race was at once run over again. 16 returned to the post, and the winner of the false race was one of the first beaten in the true one. No other race of note took place until four o'clock, when 14 2-yr-olds put their numbers up for the Criterion Stakes. The French colt Hospodar won with such cleverness that he immediately advanced half a dozen points in the Derby betting. A match, in which the win ner of the Oaks was easily defeated, finished the day's sport, which, but for the confusion and delay caused by the:contretemps in the Plate above alluded to would have been most agreeable. We quote the betting on the Cam bridgeshire Stakes in its proper place. Handicap Plate of 50 sovs for 3-yr-olds and upwards, Caambridgeshire Course. Lord Ailesbury's Teterrima, 3 yrs, sst 131 b (J. Grimshaw) 1 Lord Wilton's Lady Evelyn colt, 3 yrs, E s t 21b (H unter) 2 Baron Rothschild's Wingrave, 3 yrs, 7st 101 b (Daley) 3 The following also ran :—Baron Manchausen, Prince Plausible, Brown Stout, Makeless mare, Moorhen, Sooth sayer, Warminster, Wombat, Walpole, and Venerator. After several failures the majority of the riders, seeing the advance flag lowered by the force of the wind, and be lieving it a start, jumped away in a body, headed by Bertha, Warminster, the Lady Evelyn colt, Turn of Luck, with Makeshift and Teterrima lying wide on the upper ground to half-way up the hill, where Makeshift drew away and passed the post a neck in advance of Teterrima, Bertha being third, Warminster fourth, the Lady Evelyn colt fifth, and Turn of Luck next. On returning to scale an ob jection was lodged as being no start, which, upon investi gation by the stewards, was found correct, and it was ordered to be run over again. The Actual Race—Betting-5 to 2 agst Makeshift, 5 to 1 agst the Lady Evelyn colt, 7 to 1 agst Teterrima, and 10 to 1 agst Prince Plausible. The flag was this time lowered to an admirable start, the lot getting away nearly iu a line, but after running a short distance Wingrave, in company with Walpole, the Lady Evelyn colt, Baron Munchausen, Wombat, and Brown Stout, came on in advance, closely followed on the upper side by Teterrima, Makeshift, and Warminster, to the side of the Old Duke's stand, where Walpole took a decided lead, waited upon by Wingrave, Baron Munchausen, Te terrima, and Brown Stout lying on the loner side. On reaching the brow of the hill Walpole was beaten and dropped back, leaving the .Baron's colt once more with the command, but in a few strides further he was joined by Teterrima and the Lady Evelyn colt, the three running a close race home, Lord Ailesbury's filly, who hung considerably at the finish, winning by a neck; half a length between the second and t:tird. Brown Stout was fourth, close up, Baron Munchausen fifth, Walpole sixth, Moorhen seventh, and Makeshift next. On returning to scale, Hunter made an objection against J. Grimshaw, the rider of the winner, for foul riding, which was investigated by the Stewards before dinner, and the race awarded to Teterrima. Umpire, Gabrielle d'Estrees, Bally Edmond, Bertha, Turn of Luck, Ace., Minerva, Belleisle, and St. Lawrence ran in the false start, but were subsequently withdrawn. Maiden Plate of 50 sous, for 2 yr-olds ; colts, Bst 71b; fillies and geldings, Bst 41b. The winner to be sold for 300 sous ; if for 200, allowed 71b.

Ossian, with Jack of Hearts and Aggressor on the near side of the course, Curie in the centre, and the other two on the whip hand, made running throughout. At the bushes the three placed by the judge quitted the others, and on entering the cords the favourite made an effort to catch °solar', but failed to reach him, and was beaten by a neck, three quarters of a length separating the third from the second. Antipodes was a bad fourth, Aggressor fifth, and Lady of the Isles last. Handicap Sweepstakes of 25 sovs each, 10 ft, if declared, &c., to be divided between the first and second horses, for 3-yr-olds and upwards.

Betting —Even on Welland, 10 to 3 agst Caliban, 4 to agst Voltella, and 10 to 1 ngst each of the others. Caliban jumped off in front, with the favourite on his off side and Voltella in the centre. A ft er going about 200 yards Voltella took up the running, and carried it on to the Bushes, where W e lland went up, was not afterwards caught, and won easily by three lengths. Caliban beat Vol. tella by t wo l eng th s f or se c o nd place. After passing h er post Voltella's bit broke, and Drew, unable to stop her, threw himself off, but was not hurt; but, not returning to weigh in, she was declared distanced.

The following instance of a wound, in the heart, which did not prove mortal, is reported by Pt ofesser Brugnoli of Bologna, in the Bolletino delle Scienze ediche, In 1835, a shoemaker of Bologna, named Pietro de Luca, received a stab two inches below the left nipple and not far from the sternum, the weapon penetrating the heart. He was brought to the hospital, where he remained under treatment for the space of 78 days, at the end of which time his wound was completely healed, and he asked for per mission to leave the hospital. At that period he was still subject to violent palpita tions, and by auscultation under the col lar-bone and the arm-pit an unmistakable wheez • ing might be distinguished, which masked the sounds of the heart. There was moreover a double cardiacal pulsation, viz between the fifth dud seventh, end between the third and fourth ribs. A few months later this man was enabled to return to his trade ; a tumour then appeared under the left collar-bone, but disappeared through the agency of a pulmonar bmmorragy. A long time after he was subjected to a new medical examination on account of another disorder, and on that occasion evident signs of hypertrophia of the heart, with a whes•zing which covered the natural sound of the organ, were detected. He subsequently became subject to yeti cue bilious affections, and ultimately died in the Clinical Hospital on the 12th of April, 1855, that is nineteen years and seven months after the infliction of the wound. Upon dissection, the heart, which has been preserved in the Museum of the Faculty, presented the aspect of an eccentric hypertrophia, a thickened pericardium adhering to the external surface by numerous ligaments, some of which were encrusted with osseous concretions. The right ventricle presented a scar of a whitish colour. The weapon had not only perforated the pericardium, but also the anterior face of the right ventricle, and. traversed the septum ventriculorum, wounding tho valvula mitralis, and the endocardium on the poste rior and opposite face of the left ventricle behind the valvula, so that the heart had very nearly been pierced through and through. IVETV LAW ON MILITARY OFFENDERS. Among the acts of Parliament passed in the late session was one for the more speedy trial of homicides committed by persons subject to the Mutiny Act, on persons under the same law. It will be recollected that some fearful crimes were committed by soldiers on their officers ; and the object of the law is to bring speedily to justice persons guilty of murder or manslaughter, committed under similar circum stances. The act declares that the offences mentioned shall be in quired into with all conven ent speed, and that the inquiry, trial, and punishment, in certain cases, be more speedy than the usual course of practice ; and it further declares that it would contribute to the more speedy punishment of persons guilty, and to the maintenance of good order and military discipline if, when charged with murder or man - slaughter committed in England and Wales, and out of the jurisdiction of the Central Criminal Court, such persons NvL rc, , rendered liable t,i be indicted, and tried at the Central Criminal Court, and if when charged with murder or man slaughter, committed in Ireland and elsewhere than in the county or city of Dublin, they were rendered liable to be tried in that capital. Fortunately no case has occurred since the act was passed to put it in motion, but it is provided that when a person of the above description mentioned is charged 'with the murder or manslaughter of another under the same law, the Secretary at War may apply for, and a ju3ge of the Court of the Queen's Bench may order, the accused tube tried at the Central Criminal Court. Upon such order being made the prisoner is to be removed to Newgate, and for an offence in Ireland to Richmond Bridewell, in Dublin. Any person when convicted may be sentenced to be punished either in the county where the offence was committed, or within the jurisdiction of the court by which he is tried. Further, the act provides for the payment of expenses to be incurred, and also of the prisoner's witnesses. The last mmtioned section states that whenever any prisoner is tried at any court under the act, the judges of the court may order the payment of the expenses of the witnesses on the part of the defence, and the Commissioners of the Treasury are to pay the sum ordered out of the law charges. Her Majesty in Council may make orders to carry out the act; and perhaps some means will be adopted to prevent parties charged with cffences suffering by removal under the act as to the expenses. The cases which occurred before the passing of the pre sent act were of soldiers shooting their officers; and the offenders being kept some time in prison before they could be tried on the Circuit, the Government considered that; such offences should be speedily tried, and the offenders punished without delay. Hence the new law, and it is to be hoped that a long time may elapse before it will be - fury to enforce its provisions. But a knowledge of +A:renew law is necessary, and both officers and soldiers in the army should be informed that for either murder or ma•.rslaughter an offender can now be speedily brought to trial, and, it convicted, suffer the deserved punishment without delay, RESULTS OF THE AUSTRALIAN E-YPLO RATION. There are now four distinct routes laid down upon the map of Australia as those which have been wholly or in part explored. The route of the Burke and Wills' expe- dition is the most westerly one, and is almost identical with the 141st meridian of longitude. Landsbo rough's route is somewhat less than half a degree more easterly. The line which marks Walker's journey is still more easterly; and we have then Leichardt's route tip the Burdekin, after wards re-traversed by Gregory, wad along which—as far, at least, as the head of the Burdekin, pastoral occupation has already extended. These mutes radiate from a common point and range between a line drawn south from the head ' of the Gulf, and o.notber drawn in a south-easterly direc tion, and within these are included the country which has been the subject of the north-eastern exploration. The whole of the eastern half of the great island continent may now be said to be explored. There are, of course, some minor geographical details to be filled in, but they partake more of the character of surveys than explorations. To the west of the line, formed by Landsborough's route, there still lies the western half of the continent, and over that area, about one-third of the size of Europe, is a vast field of discovery. Stuart has journeyed over that small portion which is marked as lying between Adelaide and the Victoria River, but there is still a western world to explore and the un known country which lies between Spencer's Gulf and the Exmouth Gulf, at the north-west extremity. It is idle to speculate upon the character of the country, but it is by no means improbable that the travels over this vast area may result in showing that Western Australia is not bounded on its north by dreary desert, and that the western and north western shores may yet be destined to witness a prosperity great as that which seems in store for the opposite bide of Australia. It is now clear beyond dispute that the eastern half of Australia is capable of being turned to account for pastoral purposes. The country may not be the , rich pasture lands that we are accustomed to see in the highly cultivated districts of England. and residents in Australia tell of the arid and parched appearance which the lands siready under pasture present to those accustomed to look on the verdure of English lands. But the stock thrive well on b onwehat,ac cording to an English grazier's notion, w insuffi cient to support animal life.—Australian and New Zealauci Gazette. ESCAPE OF A PRIEST FROM PRISON. A letter from Naples, dated the 18th ink says—There the has been a great d ea l of confusion at the a this week, Sontag week, in con sequence of the escape from Maria Apparedte of Monsignore Cenatiempo p A n s you will remember, this priest was the chief of what Ls here known as the Frisi Comitato, and was condemned to 10 years' im prisonment with hard work. Though he appears to have taken flight on the morning of the 14th, it was not known to the Quaistor until the evening, and you lnay judge of the consternation which it occasioned. From all that I can gather, it appears that Schmidt, one of the witnesses for the Crown in the case of Bishop, and a Neeepolitan, were principally instrumental in procuring his escape, though others are spoken of whose names I forbear to mention at present. The statement made by the two persons above mentioned is that Monsignore was taken out in a large basket belonging to Schmidt, but there can be little doubt that the keeper was bribed. Since then the police have been moving heaven and earth to come on the traces of the lost blackbird, though without success, and the general opinion is th at his Excel lency has now reached the Papal States. Os the first day of the regatta, a short time after his escape, S have been in formed that he presented himself alongside the Neptune, and requested to be taken on board. He 'was, however, recognised by one of the party, and of course refused. He is said to have presented a letter fr om a country' man of ours, though Iby no means guar-a...ate° it; bu t th e officer in command was not empowered to r eceivenho IT; at- On the same night that Monsignore esce re a h 240 of these tempt was made by the Comoristi in the In the wall of one of the large rooms i d n i l evered by one of fellows are shut up, a large holelawtealys intr educed here ; and pear i a to get out. the new keepers,a Piedmont h ese , for the safe deten tion element that perhaps it is to this timely indebtedare esge of thee Northern for the " we ehave heard mu .ch complaint from tion of these ruffi a—. of the employ ant of Northern Liberal party trust, but the fact is that though our many of the ce _ f Italians in Pla re 5 N eapo rate ffumorll of ai t . alent—too muc for their pre ity—they cnn of be trusted, and sent Jo "few is o nly to be found by mixing thu n 3 rs, by exehang fpg the Southern with the Northern e . i.ez awit, wlite tI Ot # t W B5 hio vya ° 3 to ove r► P 6r oce l ' KA' 1 1 ° e d ° 10t i ,i 0 ora l ' , s e* fro? ,tot° t isO le til° orc e t fro g e ) Isc reef let er of b. , A 42 43 35 37 95 26 84 i / 102 1t Share 100 Eltk 20 100 1 100 100 stock stock stock 100 100 100 100 100 100 stock stool , st i 20 s st P4tOCk 5 1 1 20 28./81 No No n.ll all all 100 100 100 5 3 28i li I 59 I 212 i 111 i 13! 14 54i 27 hi i \,
