In ccnsf qucnce of an increased demand for bat• silver for Bombay, the price has advanced to 612 d. per lb., at which rate the silver brought by the West India steamer has been sold. This shows a rise of id. on the rate realised for that by the last packet, although transactions have taken place in the interval at 61d. Mexican dollars are also firm, and, being scarce, limited amounts have been dis posed of at an advance. The Etna, from New York, has brought £lll,OOO in gold, and the Borussia and Scotia this week are likely to have further considerable sums. The goldships announced to have sailed from Melbourne are the Aloe (90 days out), with £80,896 ; the Roxburgh Castle (81 days out), with £254,448; the Moravian (70 days out), with £196,824 ; and the Wellesley (64 days out), with £256,516. About £66,000 in gold, principally sovereigns, for Venezuela, on account of the loan, was with drawn from the Bank to-day, while £26 3 000 was bought by that establishment. By the Australian mail we have a report of the twenty-eighth half yearly meeting of the Com mercial Banking Company of Sydney. The net profit for the half-year ending Jane 30 last amounted to £27,465 10s. 4d., out of which the directors declared a dividend at the rate of 15 per cent, per annum, added £2 000 to the reserve fund (which now amounts to £66,000), and carried for ward £1,465 103. 4d. of undivided profits to the next account. A sixth dividend of 12 rupees per share is pay able at Calcutta on and after the 10th of Septem ber next on the shares of the North Western Bank of India, now in course of liquidation. CITY NEWS-THIS DAY. CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. The discount market continues steady, and a large amount of business is still reported. The dividend coupons on the Imperial Russian Loan of 1859 will be paid on and after the Ist proximo. An extraordinary meeting of the New Granada Company has been called for the 29th inst., for the purpose of confirming special resolutions passed at the last meeting for the winding up of the affair.

ISO-CALLED GARIBALDIANS IN THE MoncvmnT,— George Bishop, S amue l T arran t , an d Henry Davy, thre e young men,were charged with attempting to pick pockets in the Haymarket, and Davy was further charged with assault ing Waterson, 144 C. Mr. Edward Lewis, of Great Marlborough-street, appeared for the prisoners. Waterson, 144 C, said that at half-past two o'clock this morning he saw the three prisoners at the corner of Regent street. He then heard Davy ask a gentleman the way to Duke •street, and they then all walked into Jermyn-street and Coventry-street, and to the H a ymarket,sometimes two together, and sometimes three. Opposite the Anglesea Tavern in the Haymarket a crowd was assembled, and he then saw Bishop put his hand into two gentlemen's pockets. One of the gentlemen said, "If we are from the country we are not going to be picked up by you." Bishop then spoke about the Garibaldians and the Pope, They then all made off, and on overtaking them after a sharp pur suit, the prisoner Tarrant, having put his hand into a gen• tleman's pocket who cried "police," he caught them, when Davy gave him a violent blow in the eye. On searching Bishop at the station found a loaded pistol on him, the pistol having a cap on it, and also an opera glass, of which he could not give any account. By Mr. Lewis —I know that Bishop has been a sailor, but not since August last. Ido not know that he is a steward on board the Devonshire, in the East India Docks. I find he has lodged in the Ratcliffe-highway. I don't know that it is common for sailors to carry loaded pistols. Mr. Knox—lt is a very unsafe thing, to say the least of it. 5 81 8 8i 78 82 76 79 76 79 102 104 105; 106, 104 105 106 107 1p t 21 22 P 84 e 6 65 67 30 32 41 43 29 31 29 31 104 105 103 104 1 7i 2; 100 102 89 91 82 91 die 103 104 97 98 92 1,4 50 52 3 5 3 6 83 E 5 104 105 102 103 i 11 i if p 102 103 99 101 The witness (by Mr. Lewis)—The gentleman went away, and he had difficulty in securing the prisoners.

Mr. Lewis submitted there was not evidence sufficient to detain the prisoners. _ _ Mr. Knox said he would never convict in such cases, and remanded them for a week. THAMS. ROBBERY ON BOAR D S g p,E Edward Read, aged 17, an apprentice lately serving on board the brig Margaret, in the Regent's Canal Dock, Ratcliff, was brought before Mr. Selfe, charged with stealing 18s. 5d., the moneys of John Burton, a seaman. On Friday last the prisoner was missed from the ship for an hour, and on the sailor, Burton, going into his berth, he missed 18s. sd. from his trousers pocket. The prisoner did not return to the ship, and he was captured last night in a concert room in Ra,cliff-highway, when he admitted ho had taken his shipmate's money and spent it. He received a very bad character. :ration. " 3. That the Government has not the right to dispose 01 credits rejected by the resolution of this Chamber adopted on the 23d September, 1862, especially as regards the sup plementary expenses resulting from the army increase, and that by not so acting it would violate Articles 99 and 62 of the Constitution." M. de Reichensperger and other members ad dressed the Chamber in a similar sense. A discus sion ensued, in reply to objections made by M. von Gottberg and his political friends, who declared they fully approved the resolutions of the Chamber of Lords. The Chamber received this declaration as it deserved, and the sitting was adjourned for an hour. At 11 o'clock the Assembly again met, when the reporter on the committee of the Budget, M. de Forckenbeck, proposed the adoption of the follow ing resolution : " The resolution voted by the Chamber of Lords in its sitting of the 11th October, relative to the Budget of 1862, ♦iolates the sense and the letter of Art. 62 of the Constitu- The prisoner pleaded guilty, and Mr Selfe deeming it ne cessary to make a severe example of him sentenced him to six months' imprisonment and hard labour. A DANGEROUS VAGIBO ND.—A Lascar, whose name it was impossible to get at without an Hindostani interpreter, was charged before Mr. Selfe with assaulting Mrs. Mary Ann Carter, of No. 60, Burnley-street, Stepney. The complainant said she was returning home last night when the prisoner seized her by the arm in the Commercial road and made a most hideous noise. She ran away frightened, and he ran after her. She called forlthe police, and the prisoner was arrested. Mr. Henry Smith said the prisoner solicited alms of him, and, on his refusal to give him any money, made use of the most disgusting language and then ran away. Police -constable Thimbleby, 119 K, said the prisoner was a great nuisance, and had been in custody before for using bad language to people who would not give him money, and he was a most dangerous vagabond. The pri soner had been in this condition 18 months or more. The prisoner, a ferocious, dirty-looking fellow, muttered a lot of gibberish, part of which was unintelligible. On being asked his name, he uttered quickly Salum Salute, which he repeated with many grimaces, at least 100 times he endeavoured to make out that Mrs. Carter had never seen a black man before, and was scared when she saw him, but she declared she had seen many hundred black men in the course of her life. In answer to questions, he said, " Come from Bombay ; there was a God above ; me no touch her ; been in the Caledonia." Lion, in so much as not confining itself to adopt or reject the resolution of the Chamber of Deputies of the 3d October, which was alone submitted to it, after the rejection of that resolution, and adopted the Budget p: oject of the Govern ment which did not come under its powers at all ; that consequently ' that resolution is null and without value, and the Royal Government cannot derive any right there- from." M. v. Bonin protested in the name of the Feu dalist party against the resolution, and with seven of his co-religionists left the Chamber. President Grabow severely censured such con duct. The Chamber had decided by a large majority that the matter was to be discussed. The protest of a few members could not alter that decision. No discussion followed. On a call of names the proposition was unanimously adopted by the 237 deputies present. Just as the President was pro claiming the result of the vote, M.M. Bismark Schonhausen, Count of Lippe, and Count Itzenplitz entered the Chamber. After the announcement of the vote M. de Bismark, President of the Council of Ministers, read a Royal message, dated the 11th of October, authorising him to close the Session of the Diet at three o'clock. Mr. Selfe said the best thing to be done with the prisoner would be to send him back to India. He remanded him for a week. SOUTHWARK. ATTEMPTED SricinE.--Elizabeth Hancock, 8 young woman, aged 19, who described herself as a servant, out of place, was charged with attempting self-destruction. Police-constable 59 L said he was on duty last night, and about 10 o'clock he was called into the house No. 9, Stone place, Broadway, where he was informed that the prisoner had swallowed some poison. She was very sick, and on searching the room he found a phial containing some spirits of camphor, a portion of which the prisoner had taken, being under the impression that it was poison. He conveyed her immediately to Guy's Hospital, and was told there that there was no danger, the contents of the bottle not being poisonous. President Grabow, after a few words, thanking the Chamber for their indulgence, proposed "'Three cheers for King William 1., who remaits firm to the Constitution to which he has sworn ; and for the Constitution sworn to by Prussia, that invincible rampart of liberty." The Chamber responded with three rounds of cheers ; and shouts of "Long live the King! long live the Constitution !" M. de Grabow then declared that the 65th sitting was closed ; a sitting that will ever be memorable in the history of the Constitution of Prussia. During the speech of the President the Ministers had left for the Chamber of Lords, where they made known the vote of the Second Chamber. The Pre sident, Count de Holberg, said that, under existing circumstances, he should simply take note of it. M. Bismark then read the Royal Message, and the The prisoner, who was very much affected, and cried bitterly, said, in reply to the magistrate, that her mother-in-law and her brother ill-treated her, and she was driven to desperation by their conduct. She added that they were in the habit of knocking her about, and that her life was miserable. A sister of the prisoner said she was a servant in place at Battersea, and was aware that her sister was living with her family, but she could not speak as to their treatment of her. Police-constable 59 L said prisoner had it mark on her person where she stated her brother had struck her wita a broomstick. The magistrate, having pointed out the awful nature of the crime which she had intended to commit, said that if she was ill-treated by her family she could obtain a sum mons against them, and she was then discharged. sitting was closed with three cheers for the King. At 3 p.m. the Members of both Chambers met in the White Hall of the Palace, when M. Bismark read the following message closing the Diet : " Gentlemen, Members of the two Chambers of the Diet —At the commencement of your deliberations the Govern ment of his Majesty explained to you the motives m hich obliged it to have only recourse to your co-operation of the most urgent questions. Consequently, the propositions that have been sus-witted you have been chiefly confined to financial measures connected with the current year, to a series of conventions on various other projects of law, the adoption of which appe ired desirable in the interests of the material welfare of the country. " Among the propositions that have been laid before you that which relates to the treaty of commerce and naviga• tion with France is of considerable importance. In the unanimous approval which you have given to that treaty, as also to the law relative to the rights of importation and exportation, the Government of his Majesty beholds the guarantee that the economical principles upon which that convention is founded will henceforth form the basis of the commercial policy of Prussia. That policy, which has its roots in the necessity of the development of free trade, is traced out to the Prussian State by her interests and tra ditions. A portion of her confederates have already equally admitted it as responding to the interests of the whole Zollverein." MARKETS -THIS DAY. MARK LANE.

It is to be re gretted that the projected reform in this matter Ihas been adjourned. However, the Government of the King will, by administrative measures, realise the modifications which may be introduced, without inconvenience, and whicji cor respond to the necessities of the movement of travellers.

The 13th October, 1862, will henceforth be a memorable date in the annals of Prussia. The two Chambers of the Diet or Parliament met for the last time. The sitting of the Second Chamber lasted from 9 till noon, with one hour's interval of repose. The Upper Chamber only sat for half an hour. The closing of the session was announced at 3 p.m. in a speech in the so-called White Hall of the Palace by M. Bismark Schonhausen. The sitting in the Chamber of Deputies was opened by M. de Grabow, who read a letter from the Upper Chamber notifying the resolution taken by that Assembly on the previous Saturday. The hon. President then said:— " Gentlemen,—l deeply regret that it is my lot to be the medium to call upon this Chamber to exprees itself upon the second resolution of the Chamber of Lords (the adoption of the Budget of 1862 in accordance with the Government proposal). But the regulations of the House do not allow me to dispense with the consent of this Chamber to reject from the bar of this assembly a resolution which in my profound conviction I believe to be contrary to the Consti tution. (Loud cheers.) I therefore propose to you to re turn the letter which I have just read to you, as well as the propositions of Deputies MM. Simson and Gneist, which I have just received from the Committee on the Budget, and which will be the subject of a report. I wish also that the Committee will make known their report within one hour's tiwe, and that the sitting be in the meantime suspended." M. Simson proposed that it please the Chamber of Deputies to declare as follows: " The resolutions taken by the Chamber of Lords on the 11th of October are contrary to the evident sense and to the letter of the constitution; they must consequently be re garded as null and of no essential value, and from those grounds are not of a nature to be taken into consideration by the Chamber of Deputies." M. Gneist proposed that it please the Chamber of Deputies to decide : " 1. That all the resolutions which have been taken by the Chamber of Lords are unconstitutional, consequently, essentially null and without value, and that the Govern ment cannot derive any rights from the said resolutions.

It would render itself culpable of a serious for getfulness of its duties if, conformably to the resolution of the Chamber, at the price of abandoning the considerable sacrifices it has already made, and to the detriment of the power of Prussia, it were to retract the reform of the con stitution of the army, accomplished in conformity with former votes of the national representation. " The budget for the year 1862 as decreed by the Chamber of Representatives having been rejected by the Chamber of Lords on the ground of insufficiency, the Government of his Majesty is under the necessity of wielding the p u bli c affairs outside the conditions prescibed by the Constitu tion. It is perfectly aware of the responsibility it incurs from this lamentable state of things, but it is also alive to the duties which it owes to the country, and thereinitfind s the authority to continue to meet the expenses which are necessary for the maintenance of the public institutions and for the development of the prosperity of the State until such rime as the budget can be legally decreed. It entertains the hope that these expenses will be finally sanctioned by the Diet. I" The Government of the King is convinced that our con stitutional system cannot prosper except on the condition that the branches of the legislative power should impose upon themselves, each in the exercise of its powers, a reserve commanded by the respect due to the rights of others, and by the constitutional necessity of a free understanding be tween the Crown and the two Chambers of the Diet. "The Government of his Majesty does net doubt that our constitutional existence will develope itself in this path, thanks to the lessons of experience, and that the pre sent conflicts will find their solution in the sentiments of a common self-denial in favour of the power and of the dignity of the Crown, and of the welfare of the country. "In the name of the King I declare that the Session of the Chambers of the Diet is closed." At the conclusion of the reading of the Message, the members separated quietly, as if nothing parti cular had taken place. THIRD EDITION. SUN OFFICE, SEVEN O'CLOCK. SPORTING---THIS DAY.

The well-known plant, the vitas via:fierce of the botanist, has, during the whole historic period of the world, occupied in many parts of the earth a large share of man's attention. Its origin can be pretty clearly traced to Asia, though it is now said to be growing wild in many parts of the south of Europe ; and what are supposed to be indigenous species or varieties are found in America. It was probably first introduced into Europeby the Romans soon atter the foundation of Rome. What may be termed a temperate climate is that best suited to its cultivation. The soil it delights most in is a celeare ous loom on a dry subsoil. The varieties of grape vines may be said to be endless. The French Go vernment upon one occasion made a collection of 1,480 varieties in a nursery at the Luxembourg, and this was supposed to be only a moiety of those in cultivation in France alone. It is, however, no part of iny present object to refer further to the growth of the vine upon the Continent, and I shall therefore confine myself to that aspect of it which concerns our own country ; and though there is good evidence that the Romans introduced vine yards into Britain, and made considerable quantities of wine from. ths m, I shall pass over the out-door culture of the plant, merely remarking that in these daysof cheap glass it is amost unsatisfactoryinvest ment of both time and skill to attempt its culture except under glass. The earliest record with which I am acquainted of the application of artificial beat to the cultivation of the vine is in " Lawrence's Fruit Calendar, 1718, where it is stated that at Belvoir Castle, the seat of the Duke of Rutland, fires were kept up from Lady-day to Michaelmas behind sloping walis, on the south fronts of which vines were trained. We next read of SpeechlY' _an eminent horticulturist in hi s d a y, having ar ecteda vinery, something lik e our presen t lean - to houses, at IValbsck, the seat of the Duke of Portland, where he planted seventy v ar i e ti es of the vi many of them to great perfection, producing an d grew there perhaps the largest bunch of grapes that were ever grown in Britain. This famous bunch was of the variety known as the Syrian, and weighed 191 lbs. —The Grape Vine, by William Thomson. -------= SHIPPING ----THIS DAY. (BY MAGNNTIC TELEGRAPH.)

The tut ors teach the old formulas. The pupils thumb the old books. Everything is done, and must be done, with true conservative pains no princely patronage can quicken the pace or the thought of the workers. But all at once some mighty mind mates a short cut ; invents a steam engine, say, and the whole nation, prince and all, masters and scholars, tutors and taught, follow in the wake of the new guide. The four Georges in s uccession might have patronised, bribed, threatened the united coachmakers of the kingdom, without finding any route from St, James's to Windsor which a well-mounted butcher• boy could not take as well as they. But at last a great king came, and before long the successors of the Georges and their subjects sat behind Stephenson. There was a short cut : a royal road. Had there been no pains taken before this to carry travellers to their destination at the highest possible s, eed? Was not the posting system elaborated ? Were not the coaches swift? What could you do more ? There was a limit to motion. Horses have but four legs, and the sug gestive whipcord fails beyond a certain point. But the ' commanding brain summons an iron steed, swifter then the fabled Pegasus himself. Possibly, however, some servant may be hereafter found better for our purposes thin steam itself.

An the hour for the execution draws near, and now that anything which can be said of the ante cedents of this miserable convict cannot be to her prejudice, it does not become out of place to give a brief outline of the course she has pursued from early childhood, and it will be seen that her career has been one of uninterrupted profligacy and crime. Her name is Catherine and not Constance, and she was born of poor but honest parents in 1817. Their name was Crane, and they lived at Surfleet, near the town of Spalding, in Lincolnshire. Her father Was a carpenter, and in the latter part of his life was an inmate of one of the Bede-houses of the town. There was two other children, one of whom, an idiot, died a short time ago. The convict's parents have been dead about twelve years. The first thing which rendered her notorious was a robbery which she committed wb en ouly fourteen years of age, and the circumstances which attended the commission were of a very base character. She had gone to the house of a friend as a child visitor, and whilst there committed a theft. The servant was suspected, taken in charge, and convicted of the offen ce . t h e evidence against her being that of the girl Wilson, who, on b e i ng subsequently examined about the robbery, confessed that she had committed it, and fixed the crime upon the servant. She after this left her home, and went to live at Surfleet, where she openly lived a loose life. She then went to Spalding, where sh e lived more quietly, but still as a gay woman. Sh e next went to Boston, and there became acquainted with a highly respectable master mariner tradinr s from that port, and by her plausibility and la-er apparent respectability she induced him to marry her, and for some time they lived in comfort; but she returning to her old mode of living whilst her husband was at sea, he, upon his return discovering it, left her to live with another woman. About this time a son of hers before her marriage, aged 15, was drowned at sea. She then went into the service of an eccentric old seafaring gentleman named Mawer, who died under very suspicious circumstances, after a few hours' illness, it was said of cholera, leaving to the convict a good sum of money, and property of the annual value of £5O. She then made the acquaintance of the parties named in the cases re cently before the public. DAHOMIAN ATROCITIES.. The following information from Dahomey has been received at the Church Missionary House, from the commander of her Majesty's ship Griffm, at Little Popo, August 6, 1862 : " Sir,—l think it my duty to lay before you, with as little delay as possible, the following information concern ing Dahomey : " On the bth of August, when'at anchor off Little Popo, I received a letter frost the shore, stating that Mr. Euschart, a Dutch merchant, residing at Popo, had just returned from Dahomey, and that he had news of great in terest for my ear. This Mr. Euschart I have had frequent conversation with, and I have every reason to believe that his information is most accurate, trustworthy, and reliable. I therefore borrowed a surf boat from a Dutch brig in the roads, and, having manned her with 10 of my own Kroo men, I wi'h great difficulty effected a landing, two boats out of three that tried the beach that day being capsized, owing to the very heavy surf. I give the substance of Mr. Euschart's information as closely as possible, having jotted it down in my notebook during our conversation. It appears that Mr. Eusehart went to Whydah on busi ness in the middle of June, and on the 24th of June, while still at Whydah, received the stick of the King of Daho mey, with an instruction that his presence was required at Abomey. Mr. Euschart tried every method of evading the journey, but without avail, the Caboceers of Whydah tell ing him plainly that he would be carried to Abom ey as a prisoner if he did not at once willingly obey the K ing's message. " Accordingly at 1 p.m. of June 26, having provided him self with six hammock men, he left Whydah for Abomey, escorted by an armed party of Dahomians, and reached Alada, the old residence of the King of Dahomey, the same evening; June 27, 1 p.m., left Alada, and arrived at Ta b .ur at 10 p.m. ; June 28, 5 30 a.m., started for Ramos, through swamp, and easily passed; 9 30 a.m. started, and arrived outside Abomey at 7 30 p.m., the road on the way having been very good. He was at once shown into a very fair house, and told to remain there during the night. June 29, received a letter from the King that he was to be pre. sented the next day. June 30, entered walled part of town through royal gate ; received there by two head Caboceers, who saluted him, saying, King had never seen a Dutch man ; King's father had never seen a Dutchman ; and now they had plenty of people to kill they were very glad to see a Dutchman.' He was then ordered to drink the King's health four times, after which the Caboceers danced round him, singing and firing guns. He was then conducted to the King's palace, and received there by the Prime Minis ter, who told him the King would receive him next day. " July I—Received by the King, who was seated outside the palace on a raised dais, surrounded by Amazons, H saluted the King in European style. The King at once got up and shook hands with him, said he was very glad to see a Dutchman, and continued talking in,Portuguese for about 10 minutes. He was then ordered to return to his house and keep inside three days. " July s—He was brought to the market-place,where he was told many people had been killed the night before. Ho first saw the body of ➢lr. Wm. Doherty (a Sierre Leone man), late a missionary and Church Catechist at Ishagga.. The body was crucified against a large tree,one nail through the forehead, one through the heart, and one through each hand and foot ; the left arm was bent, and a large cotton umbrella in the grasp. He was then taken to the market, where the King was seated on a raised platform, from which ho was talking to the people much' war-palaver,'and promising them an attack upon Abbeokuta in November. Cowries, cloth, and rum were then distributed. In front of marketplace rows of human heads, fresh and gory, were ranged, and the whole place was saturated with blood, the heads evidently belonging to some of the Ishagga prisoners who had been killed during the night, after having been tortured in the most frightful manner. " Until July 10th Mr. Euschart was ordered to remain quiet in his house, and not to move or look out after sun. down. " July 10—The ground shook violently—evidently, from the date, the effect of the earthquake felt at Accra. Mr. Euschart was at once brought to the market-place, where he found the King again seated on the raised platform, surrounded by Amazons ; the King told him that the ground shaking was his father's spirit, complaining that 6 Customs were not made proper.' Three Ishag ga chiefs were then brought before the King, and told they were to go and tell his father that Customs should be better than ever.' Each chief was then given a bottle of rum and a head of cowries, and then decapitated. Twenty four men were then brought out, bound in baskets, with their heads just showing out, and placed on the platform in front of the King ; they were then thrown down to the people, who were dancing, singing, and yelling below; as each man was thrown down, he was seized and decapidatod, the heads being piled in one heap and the bodies in another ; every man who caught a ♦ictim and cut off tha head received one head of cowries (about 25.) After all were killed Mr. Euschart was conducted home. " July 11.—Taken to another part of the town wliero exactly similar horrors wore being perpetrated. " July 12.—A1l the platforms were tak en d own, and the programme appeared to be firing guns, singing, and d anc i ng all day ; there were no more public sacrifices for 10 days, but it is supposed many took place during the nights. J u l y 22.—Taken to see the 'Grand Customs' at the Palace of the late King, at the gate of which two platforms had been erected ; on each platform 16 men and four horses were placed ; inside the house was placed another platform, on which were placed 16 women, four horses, and one alligator. The men and women were all Sierra Leone people captured at Ishagga, and were dressed in European clothes,each group of 16 men seated or rather bound in chairs placed round a table on Which glasses of rum were placed for each. The King then ascended the platform, where he adored the Dahemian fetish, and seemed to make obeisance t a the prisoners, whose right arms were then loosed to enal-,15 them to take up the glass to drink the King's health. After the King's health had been drunk, the effects of the late King were paraded and worshipped by the peopl as they passed; a grand review of the troops then com menced, and as each marched past the King harangued them, and promised the sack of Abbeokuta in November, Nearly the whole of the troops wore firearms; a few select corps had rifles, but the greater part were armed with tint. lock muskets. The artillery consisted of about 24 guns (12-pounders). The number of troops altogether could scarcely be less than 50,000, including 10,000 Amazons, all apparently well disciplined troops. After the review was ' over the prisoners were beheaded, their heads being hacked off with blunt knives ; at the same time the horses and alli.. gator were despatched, particular care being taken that their blood should mingle with that of the human prisoners. " When all was finished Mr. Euecbart was permitted to leave Abomey, which, it is needless to say, he immediately did, havin . g received the magnificent of cowries (165.), one piece of country cloth, and two viatica of eight flacks of run. out doubt, be attacked by the whole Daho n3 “mr. Euschart firmly believes that Abbeokuatna wairlml,wyittho: wards the end of November. By T .
