MUD KET, CITY NE WS-YESTERDAY. the famine year of 1846-47, when Ireland was chiefly supplied with that grain, and the total was 2,145,000 qrs. The average of Indian corn shipped to the United Kingdom during 16 years has been 734,000 qrs. The quantities of this grain sent to the Continent have been unimportant. CITY NEWS---THIS DAY. CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. The demand for money is not very active, but a steady business is nevertheless reported, and the dealers and discount houses show a disposition to ask rather higher terms for the business they ne gotiate. Superior descriptions of commercial bills, however, are still taken freely at 1 per cent. Gold is now about 1-10th per cent. dearer in London than in Paris, and about 2-10ths per cent. higher here than in Hamburg. Notice hay been given that tenders for bills of exchange on India for the sum of 38,00,000 rupees will be received until the Ist proximo. The firet annual meeting of the East Del Rey Mining Company will take place on the 2d pros. A dividend at the rate of 5 per cent. is announced by the Protector Endowment Loan and Annuity Company, Two o'CLocjc. The Liverpool cotton market was very inactive to day, and sales small, at lower prices. The Three per Cent. Rentes, at Paris, this morn ing, opened at 69f. 15c., and improved to 69f. 20c., being k per cent_ better than yesterday. The half-yearly meeting of the London General Omnibus Company took place to-day. The report of the directors states that the result of the opera tions for the past six months is more satisfactory than that of any corresponding half-year. The receipts exceed those of 1861 by X 16,787 16s. ld., and the expenses were £7,280 13s. 4d. less than in the same period of last year. The net profit of the six months is given at £24,289 Os. 6d. This increase of the profit is partly attributable to the traffic occasioned by the International Exhibi tion ; but, independently of this, it is stated that the returns for the months previous to the opening of the Exhibition show a large increase in corn-I parison with the corresponding dates. The direc tors also anticipate to place before the shareholders at their next financial meeting a report which will show that the company's affairs are highly sound and satisfactory. Although very little business has been transacted to-day in the Market for the English Funds, a few speculative sales have been effected, which have caused slight heaviness. Consols are 934 for money, and 931 a for the account. The dealings in the Foreign Market have been moderately active. Egyptian Loan is fiat, at 9'► ; ditto, 2d issue, at 891 90 ; Mexican at 314 4 ; Moorish remain at 931 ; Russian 5 per Cents. are 951 ; ditto New Loan, 941 ; Spanish Passive have been rather actively dealt in at 211 to 22. The Certificates are firm at 101 ; Turkish 6 per Cents., 1854, 851 86; ditto, 1858, 681; ditto New Loan Scrip, 14 1 dis., and the Consolides 37* I. In the Railway Share Market the operations have been very restricted, and the few dealings entered into have been at a slight decline. North Western and South Western have receded 55., and North British 10s. ; Great Westerns, Midlands, and South Easterns continue at about previous quota tions. The Foreign and Colonial undertakings, in some instances, exhibit more firmness. South Austrian and Lombardy realise 22; Bahia and San Fran- t 4,:sco, 20k ; Great Western of Canada have improved to ; 12 1 1 and Great Indian Peninsula t o 104-i. .2 8 Joint Stock Bank and Miscellaneoss shares re mained without material change in prices. The shares of the Cambrian Gold Mining Co. are steady at a to -3- prem., and shares of the Royal Forest of Dean are quoted to prem. BRITISH FUNDS—CLOSING PRICES. 3 per Cent.

About £B,OOO in gold was bought by the Bank to-day. About £25,000 in bars and sovereigns have been sent to Portugal. The bar silver brought by the West India packet has been disposed of at 611 d. This establishes a decline of id. from the price realised for the amount by the previous steamer, in consequence of a dimi nution in the demand for Bombay. The Mexican dollars are not yet sold. The current New York advices contain a full statement of the exportation of grain and flour from the United States to Europa during the com mercial year from Sept. 1, 1861, to Sept. 1, 1862. From this it appaars that the total quantity of Wheat and flour sent to the United Kingdom in the twelve months was equal to 5,000,500 qrs., or about 2 per cent. in excess of the previously unparalleled total of the year ending Sept. 1, 1861. This amount is nearly three times as high as the highest attained during any of the previous 14 years, the total even in the memorable season of 1846 and 1847 having been only 2,604,000 qrs. The average of the 16 Commercial years ending the let inst. was 1,676,500 qrs. The shipments to the Continent this year have amounted to 1,367,782 qrs., against 925,000 qrs. in 1861. The Continental accounts extend over only eight years, and the average for that space has been 470,000 qrs. per annum. Of Indian corn the shipments to the United Kingdom for the present year have been 1,586,000 qrs., which is also higher " than on any former occasion with the exception of Lfortu red at lad ered e pro , - which ,E ON id there 3cessful red, be to dine dinner t about aquatics >ff well. teshead )nsW l ' Cyne to ane daY ooting L Nos 3 ul coos" 11, Cot added ; 44; 01.

SENTENCE ON THE PRISONER. Contrary to previous arrangement, Mr. Roupell, against whom two true bills for forgery had been found, was brought up this morning for the purpose of pleading guilty, and withdrawing his refusal to plead when arraigned on Monday last. On the learned judge taking his seat, Mr. Clark, with whom was Mr. Besley, said there were two indictments against a person named William Roupell, the one of forging a will and the other for forging a deed, to which the prisoner had refused to plead, and a plea had been entered, by order of the Court, of not guilty. The learned judge then directed the prisoner to be placed at the bar to plead. Mr. Roupell then entered the dock with a very firm step, and took up his position in the centre of the bar. Mr. Hemp, the Deputy Clerk of Arraigns, then called upon the prisoner, and asked him whether he was desirous of withdrawing his refusal to plead. The prisoner bowed assent. • Mr. Hemp —Do you plead guilty. • The prisoner, in a clear voice, said, " Guilty." The learned Judge then ordered him to be called upon for judgment, when The prisoner addressed the Court, and said—My lord, I trust for your unbiassed opinion. I am desirous of saying a few words before you proceed to pass sentence. I have to regret any inconvenience I may have occasioned by my declining to plead; it was my desire to have prevented any inconvenience, but I did not expect to be brought here until this morning. My purpose has never swerved from the first, when I resolved to give myself up and plead guilty. My lord, my life has been one of fearful vicissitude. In truth, I suffered great privation. At the age of twenty-ene I contracted my first debt with a friend, with whom I was connected by the most intimate ties, my relations would not advance the money to pay that debt, and my friend fell into grievous pecuniary difficulties, and I could not pay the demand I owed. It was then I risked my soul, and took the first step in crime. What ever I have done the guilt is mine alone. True, I have to bear the brunt of it, but the guilt, I repeat, is mine alone. I cast no blame on any one--I allude to those pro fessional gentlemen with whom I have had extensive trans actions. There is no truth that I endeavoured, under the influence of family instinct, to provide for the members of my family at the expense of others. Such a supposition, my lord, I submit, carries on the face of it its own refutation. It is true that my father, just before he died, really ex pressed to me—in whom, after the great fraud I committed, he reposed confidence—it is true that he expressed a desire that I should take all his property and pay to the members of his family annuities such as he described to me. I was prevented by my first crime from carrying his wishes into legal effect ; and at that time I felt justified by forging the will of 1856, and adopt ing the will of 1850, to carry out my father's last wishes as they were expressed to me. I say I thought then I was justified. I don't think so now. Ruin has been the result. Ido not say now that ruin has been consummated. It would take too long to relate, my lord, how I have been ruined. I have written at great length the story of my life whilst I have been in prison ; but, upon reflection, I have been convinced that, it published, it would cause unneces sary pain to others and be of no public good. I have, therefore, entirely, at my own instance, suppressed it. I must content myself, therefore, by simply stating that the accounts which have been given to the public from the remarks of Mr. Sergeant Shoe at Guild ford, and the comments of the minor newspapers, are calculated only to mislead the public. lam a living paradox, my lord, and no one has a clue to the solution of it. I cannot hope I shall ever be understood. It is not true, my lord, that I am personally extravagant. Ido not argue, I simply state the fact. It is not true that I have gambled. It is not true that lam a libertine. Those who do not wish to believe will probably remain unconvinced. To those who love me my statement is unnecessary. I tried hard, my lord, to bring about a compromise of _these terrible events before I left England. I felt that myfirst duty Was not to my family, but to those persons who had entrusted me with their money on reliance on my honour and the representations I had made. I confessed the whole of my great faults before I left England to a gentleman who had the means of making it known to all the persons - interested in my mortgages. I retrained in England more than a week or ten days after the confession. I offered to surrender. I said, I confess my guilt. I have made no provision. I wish only to retrieve the past. I said to them, " What are you going to do ?" I was answered "We don't believe your statement. We think it is a cleverly concocted tale to provide for your family, and if the members of your family move one inch we will indict them with you for conspiracy." It was only then that I surrendered the hope of bringing about a compromise which would have confined the loss entirely to the members of my own family. I quitted England in despair. I gained time f,,r reflection, and,mapinched by want, full of youth and strength and the capacity of enjoying life such as many parts of the world would have afforded me, I have returned a self. convicted criminal, led by sincere reflection and a desire to serve the ends of jus tice. I know what I have expec A terrible fate awaits me—terrible to any man of eI cation and refine ment, but if I po ssesse d those qualities my guilt is only the t greater. I know, my lord, what I have been. I expect it is a dreadful fate, but I have looked at it calmly in the face, and I deliberately prefer penal servitude for life to existence in Continual disguise, concealment and positive remorse. I make no appeal for mercy, my lord. I only ask you to believe in my Sincere repentance, and my only desire is that justice—complete justice —may be done. I appeal only to that still higher tribunal for mercy —that tribunal where alone an appeal for pardon can be justly made. My lord, I await my sentence. This address was made with the coolest self-possession, and the manner in which the prisoner spoke was dignified and earnest. There was not the slightest quiver of the lip, or the least sign of hesitation. Every sentence was well weighed, and the address from beginning to end was quite an extraordinary effort for a person in the situation of the prisoner, one who had fallen from a high position to (.ne of the most degraded. The learned Judge, who seemed deepl address o f t h e prisoner y moved by th e , said—William R oupell, you have pleaded guilty to two charges of forg ery -- the for ger y of a will, and the forgery of deed—two of the most serious circumstances known to the law. From the dock in which you now stand many a poor wretch whose crimes in comparison with yours were venial and insignificant, has gone to the gallows. The humanity of the legislature has removed from these crimes the last penalty of the law, You have observed in the course of the remarks you have made that your whole life has been a serious and fearful mistake. I believe it. That mistake consisted first, in the absence of that perfect rectitude of intention which is the only safe guide in human life. The man who deviates from it takes the first step in a decliaity which leads to a precipice, and he soon finds that to stand still is impossible—to retreat certain ruin, and to advance destruction, You say that your conduct at the late assize, and your con duct to-day, is the result of a sincere though late repent ance. Whether you speak the truth or not there is none but one that knows—but there is One. The law has en trusted to judges, and properly entrusted them, owing to the circumstances whi c h diversify the c ases, t h e applica tion of punishment. But in this case, in which you must be aware—and you have properly stated that you are aware —it is impossible, with a view to the interests of the public ; that any mercy should be extended to you. I have there. fore to inform you that the sentence of the court is that you be kept in penal servitude for the term of your natural life. Mr. Itoupell heard the sentence pronounced with the greatest composure. As the judge uttered the terrible words he nevo. moved a feature. On leaving the dock he bowed politely to the judge, and making a faint recognition to some of his friends whom he saw in court, he left the court in the custody of the attendant warder. As the prisoner had been placed very unexpectedly at the bar, the court was not more fully attended than usual, but immediately it became known in the other courts and the lobbies the place became crowded to suffocation. A serious accident occurred a few days since in the tunnel now being cut through Mount Cenis. A num ber of maso ns at work on a scaffold, Maki ng an arch to sup port the roof of the tunnel, were precipit a t e d to the ground by the fall of about 60 cubic metres of earth and stone. One of them was seriously hurt, and three others were buried under the rubbish, and little hope remains of extricating them Win, 'HIS DAY, OLD COURT. THE ISLE WORTH MURDER. The trial of Cooper, who stands indicted for the wilful murder of his wife, has been postponed until next session. It is understood that Mr. Digby Seymour will defend the prisoner. ALLEGED MURDER NEAR FITZROY-SQUARE. Charles Franc's Cotier was indicted for the wilful mur. der of Elizabeth Corby. The jury found the prisoner guilty of manslaughter. Sentence was deferred. NEW COURT. ALLEGED CHILD MURDER Susan Arter, lately in the service of Madame Goldsmid Lind, was indicted for the wilful murder of her illegitimate child. From the evidence it appeared that the prisoner delivered herself of the child in question, and afterwards put it in a box; but, on being questioned by Mr. Ottn Goldsmid ske at first denied, but afterwards admitted the fact, and pointed out the box in which the body was concealed. On the bodp being taken out marks of violence were dis c3vered about the throat. The surgeon who was called in was of opinion that the chid had been born alive. After a very impressive address from Mr. Sleigh on be half of the prisoner, The jury acquitted her of the murder, but found her guilty of concealing the birth of the child. Mr. Justice Keating sentenced the prisoner to 14 months imprisonment. The jury returned a verdict of acquittal, under thoseicir cumstauces, and the unfortunate woman was ordered to be d ;tained during her Majesty's pleasure. THE MURDER IN THE CITY ROAD. Adelaide Cole, lately residing at Brunswick-place, City fo id, was indicted for the murder of her child by cutting is throat. From the evidence it appeared that the prisoner was decidedly of unsonnd mind. THIRD COURT. LIBEL.--MR. GRAY'S CASE. Shortly after two o'clock Mr. Gray, who last night was found guilty of publishing a libel against a gentleman named Phillips, was called upon to surrender for judg- The Common Sergeant having gone through the facts of the case, said he thought the libel complained of exceeded the liberty which ought to be allowed. He then sentenced Mr. Gray to pay a fine of £5O, and to be imprisoned until the money be paid. POLICE-THIS DAY. WESTMINSTER. A COURAGEOUS WOMAN.—A German, who gave the name of John Smith, but whose real name subsequently turned out to be Johann Schmidt, a native of Mavence, was charged with stealing a quantity of long cloth, a cap, and some collars from the International Exhibition. Sarah Dimbleby said she was employed in the French Gallery, where she had the charge of several cases. Last evening she was covering up the things previous to leaving the building, when she saw the prisoner lurking about in a very suspic • ious manner, and from this reason watched him and saw him look at several oases. A policeman passed him twice, and after he had watched him away she saw him take the roll of cloth produced, (a specimen of St. Quentier manufacture), double it up, and putting it under his coat walk away. She pursued him, and seizing him by the collar, Bali, " Yot:ng man, give me back that cloth, it's my master's property." e said nothing, but gave it up, and calling a policeman she gave him in charge. The police-constable James Leech, 412 X, to whom the prisoner was given in charge, proved finding upon him the cap and collar. The woman Dimbleby identified the cap and collar as part of the property she had charge of. All the three arti cles had been stolen from different cases. M. Henrie Laseneur said he was the representative of sev. , ral French departments in the International Exhibition, and had under his charge upwards of £20,000 worth of pro perty. Articles were constantly disappearing from the French Court, and these were under his charge. The evidence having been interpreted to the prisoner who said he knew nothing whatever about the affair, he was remanded for a week. MAR LBOROUGH-STREET MR. WILSON VISITS THE HAYMARKET—AND ASSAULTS THE POLICE.—Mr.. Walter Wilson, of Cowes, Isle of Wight, gentleman, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with being drunk, using obscene language, and assaulting John Harris, 304 A. Harris said—At a quarter past 2 o'clock this morning, while in the Haymarket, he saw the defendant, who was drunk and using obscene language. He advised him to go away, when he forced himself into a night-house doorway, but was refused admission. The defendant then commenced beating the doer with his stick, and on telling him that it could not be permitted he gave him (witness) a blow in the chest which sent him reeling. He gob assistance and took the defendant into custody, and on getting into Piccadilly the defendant knocked him and two other constables down, and then held him (Harris) down by the hair of his head and scratched his face, Other evidence having been given, The defendant said he certainly was drunk. He had come from the country, and had been dining with some friends. Mr. Tyrwhitt fined the defendant 20s. or a month, stat ing that it was a pity to see a gentleman do such a thing. A BAGPIPER CHARGED WITH INCITING A CIIILD TO BlG.—John Keepe, a bagpiper, was charged with inciting a little girl six years of age to beg. The prisoner was seea by Nathan Leech, 324 A., the previous night sending the child after gentlemen for the purpose of begging. In one case she came back without any money,when the prisoner gave her a slap on the head. The prisonei• then sent her after another gentleman, and she was more successful, and brought back some coppers which she gave to the prisoner. The constable then hav ing cautioned the prisoner• several times not to visit Regent •street, took him into custody. In answer to Mr. Tyrwhitt, the constable said the prisoner had his bagpipes with him, but had not been playing them. Mr. Tyrwhitt told the prisoner that his picturesque dress was all got up. He called himself a bagpiper, and he (Mr. Tyrwhitt) had no deubt that he could play a little, and that was all—his object being to beg and to screw what he could from people with the aid of the child. Committed fox a month with hard labour. SOUTHWARK. nREAXING AN OMNIBUS Wl NDWM.—Charles Stevens, described as a horsekeeper at a cab yard in thb Dover Road, was charged with breaking a window of one of the General Omnibus Company's canines, and Mr. Hudson, the ma nager of the company, attended to prosecute. Henry William Holmes said that last night, about half past ten, the omnibus of which he was conductor was standing near the clock tower at London-bridge, and he noticed the prisoner and a woman, who were quarrelling in the road. The latter said something to the prisoner, on which he took up a stone and deliberately flung it at one of the side windows, through which it passed. The stone, which he produced, was afterwards found inside the om nibus. The prisoner, in reply to the magistrate, denied the charge. Witness said that immediately the prisoner flung th e stone the woman remarked, " You have done it now." The wife of the prisoner, who was the woman with whom he had beet quarrelling the previous night, denied that her husband threw the stone. 33 AI proved to having taken the prisoner into custody, and the woman merely said he had been very quarrelsome. Mr. Iludson said the company had to pay as much as £3OO a-year for damage done to the windows of their carriages. The prisoner was sentenced to pay 20s. damages, and ls. fiae, or be imprisoned for one month, and not being able to pay the m oney, he was removed to the cell. I A RE GULAR THAME S. I of 34 WIFE BEATER. —Charl es L ane, a labourer, i Stracey .street, Stepney, was brought before Mr. Selfe, charged with assaulting his wife, Ann Lane, who presented herself in the witness-box with one eye blackened , and swollen, and her face bruised. The complt.inant said she had been married to the pri soner two years, and he had ill-used her at intervals ever since. Three weeks after her wedding he knocked her down and beat her. lie implored her forgiveness, and she did look over his brutality, on promise of better behaviour. Two months ago he beat her and gave her a black eye . Last night she went out on a visit to a lady, and expected her her husband to meet her and take her home, but tidi why do so, and when she got home she merely asked him l he had not met her, on which he abused her and 11 epithets towards her, and when she remonstrated to es he commenced kicking and ill using her. r l r n oom door and cape from him, he got her arm between e he She was obliged the door post, and kept it there some timvio violence. to cal for the police to prevent furth N er o. 1 4 95 11, said he was frying to him, Henry Wilmot, police-constable, No. custody, and that he called upon to take the prisoner h in t) He captured the behaved with great violence. and threw him, and made his escape . afters T g p o r oiondee ea deal be sotruut g h glin le g g , prisoner a second time, and, secured him.

'S WEDDING. offered tap a - fervent prayer on behalf of those who were about to take a prominent part in the present service. The usual declaration was then made by the bridegroom in the following terms:—" Friends, I take this, my friend, Henrietta Jane Fry, to be my wife, promising, by Divine assistance, to be unto her ca loving and faithful husband, until it shallplease the Lard by death to separate us." This was re peated by the bride. The marriage certificate hav ing been read by the clerk of the meeting, it was then signed by the bride, bridegroom, and the parents of both parties, after which it was left to be signed by anyone in the meetinghouse who felt disposed to do so, and the numerous party returned in carriages to the residence of the bride, to partake of the wedding breakfast. There were no speeches after the breakfast, but Dr. Ash gave a short ad dress, concluding with a prayer for God's blessin g on the newly- marr i e d pa i r. At a later hour of the day Mr. and Mrs. Whitweil left for the Continent. WILLS AND BEQUESTS.

The personalty was sworn under £70,000. The testatrix, who died in March last executed her will in 1860, a codicil in 1861, and another codicil in the month she died. The will is of more than ordinary length from its containing many bequests, both legacies and annuities, to the various members of her family, as well as to servants, and £l5O to her companion. To her nephew and executor, Sir G. E. W. Gregory, Bt., she has devised the whole of her estate, and also bequeathed is him a legacy of £20,000, together with a moiety of the residue of the per onalty, bequeathing the other moiety amongst ten charitable institutions, as follows :—lle Pas toral Aid Society, the Rev.

The testator's wife, who was appointed sole executrix therein, and to whom he had bequeathed the whole of his property of every description, died before the colonel.

The Friends' Meeting-house, Rosemary-street ? Bristol, was on Wednesday morning densely crowded by a large number of those connected with the society and other spectators, to witness the nup tials of Miss Henrietta Jane Fry, second daughter of Mr. Joseph Fry, of the extensive firm of Messrs. Fry and Sons, of Bristol, and Mr. Wm. Whitwell, of Stockton-on-Tees, son of Mr. Wm. Whitwell, of Kendal. The bride wore a dress of white corded silk, white tulle shawl, veil of the same material, and tulle bonnet. She was attended by sir brides maids, comprising the following ladies :—Aii, Fis F ry and Miss Caroline Fry, of Cothara ; Miss Whitwell of Kendal; Miss Pease, of H en b ury ; Miss Clay and Miss Wilson. They wore white grenadine dresses, with blue silk sashes, white grenadine shawls, edged with blue siik, and white raphano and tulle bonnets. The service was commenced with prayer, after which Mr. W. Tanner gave a short ad dress relative to the solemn occasion on which they were met together. Mrs. Elizabeth Charlton next EXTRA ORDINARY STORY. I Recently, in a certain parish in the Isle of Man, a case of cruelty was brought to our notice more inhuman than anything we have ever heard of. The victim of it was in telligent and beautiful in her early youn, but unfortu nately was endowed with too strong passions to pass through the vicissitudes of this world unscathed. Excitable as she was, the restraining influence of religion and the pious lessons of a widowed mother, kept her for many years in the path of virtue. But when that mother was laid beside her father's grave in the " old kirkyard," the daughter was left a lone orphan in a tempting and heart less world, exposed to the wiles of wickei and designing men. A deceiver soon turned up, paid his ad dresses to her, and, in the sacred name of love, won her affections arid the unreserved devotion of her warm heart. This treacherous wretch robbed her not only of her virtue, but of every farthing of her money bequeathed by her saintly mother. She bore up heroically under these accumulated wrongs; but a worse shock to her feelings was reserved for her. Her betrayer and robber was urged by some one to refund the money of which he had plundered her. He swore he would not, and blasphemously invoked God's crushing wrath upon his head if he ever should pay her. The Almighty took him at his word, and the man was crushed to death by a mass of earth and stones in a mine. The violent death of her seducer was a blow not to be borne —reason reeled from its throne, and the woman became a maniac. It devolved upon her brother as a legal obligation to support this crushed and heart-broken sister, he having ample means to do the same. Her madness was not of a vio -1 lent and dangerous kind—hence confinement was uuneces • sary, and no doubt by the power of kindness, had it been bestowed, she might have been restored to a state of sanity. But the brother chained up his sister in a dark and filthy stable, half starving, or feeding her with the offal which t swine would loathe; whilst her shivering limbs half covered with filthy rags, and the rottenness s'an'edr.eo.filth in 'which she was buried m tde her an object of . thseus and loathing, had she not been an object of pitia ble and sym pathy.

A LEGEND OF FALKENSTEIN.—Falkenstein is not with ou t i ts own share of romantic tales. A knight of S ayn, as the story goes, once loved a young lady of the alkenstein family. The father would not consent to the match excepting on the condition that the knight should make by the next day a convenient road to the castle which was only to be approached by a stiff climb before. While the hopeless lover was wandering about at twilight, a mountain spirit appeared to him, and offered to make the road in question on condition that he would put a stop to certain mining operations in a country which was inha bited by the Gnomes. The knight consented, and the next night there was a vast bustle on the hill, and noise, with out visible workmen, of hammers, chisels, and pickaxes. In the morning the knight, riding up the newly-formed road to the castle, demanded his bride of the astonished father.—Once a iFfert. THIRD EDITION. SUN OFFICE, SEVEN O'CLOCK.

We drove through a porte-cochiire into a large open court, on one side of which hung a curtain similar to those at the entrance of Roman Catholic churches. As soon us we had got out of the carriage, a tall black man appeared, handed us up the steps, and lot the curtain drop behind us. At this moment, three or four female slaves arrived, with large glass lanterns, and ushered us up a long stair case into a passege; in either hand were small rooms, in which were other slaves, some embroidering others smok ing, or crouched asleep on the ground. This passage led into a magnificent marble hall, the centre of which was lighted by a lofty dome, and the four sides formed alcoves, round which ran a lew divan. Here the slaves dis encumbered us of our wraps, and we proceeded through more passages and staircases, some bf them open to the air, then through several large rooms, with only the usual divan for furniture ; most of them were entered by a low step, down one or two , of which I slipped. I began to think we Should never reach the en chanted spot, when signs of habitation, in the shape of a mule Etude of red and yellow slippers, showed themselves. Two more rooms, and a heavy damask was pushed aside, and we entered a large apartment, at the further end of which was a divan, on which sat two ladies, both young, and, one very handsome. They were the two married daughters of Nateef Pacha; the tallest and handsomest was the widow of Shereef Pacha's eldest son, the richest proprietor, not of the royal family, in all Egypt, She had loather husband a few months ago, and on his death had returned to her father's house. They both rose at our entrance, shook hands with us, put their hands to their foreheads, and finally made us sit down by them. As I had come unannounced, they were in their home neglige, which I was very glad of. The widow was in a dress of deep red Broussa gauze, and her sister in a pink and white print. For coiffure they wore a Stamboul crape kerchief, covering the top of the head and part of the forehead; the ends are brought back and tied in front; the hair is cut short, and is either braided or hangs down to the ears. One slave girl had a long plait down the back, but that is no longer the fashion—in fact, they cut off nearly all their hair for the convenience of the bath, and almost all the braids are false. Aft er a f ew inquiries had been made as to who I was, how many children I had, and what I thought of Eastern man ners, the widow began showing us her dress, which she said was a new stuff just come from Stamboul. I told her I had been there, and had seen the material; I did not sa y that it was four years ago. By this time cigarettes and chafing-dishes had been brought us, and the room, large as it was, seemed more than half filled with slaves, standing, sitting, or c rouc hi ng in different positions on the ground, or on the l ow di van which ran down the two sides of the room. A table on which stood some candelabra with lights, and a sort of sideboard over which hung a large mirror, completed the furniture. On either side of the mirror was a cupboard, in the doors of which were in serted panels of carved wood. The walls were glazed white, and round the top ran a border, painted with all sorts of impossible trees, houses, and flowers. A nice little boy, about five years old, who was running about, soon became very friendly; he was the sou of the younger sister, a fat little girl, who Was also brought in to see us. The boy was dressed in a white blouse, full white trousers, and the usual crimson tarboosh ; the girl in a blue jacket and trousers, but her tarboosh was embroidered in gold and pearls. Her nurse returned again with her in a few minutes, carrying over her head a blue silk parasol, which her mother, the widow, took and gazed at with almost as much pride as at her child. I asked how long the boy would be allowed to be present when they received female visitors, and was told till he was eight years old, after which a woman would be considered immodest who per. mitted him to see her face unveiled.--Once a Week.

Little Pinkie Saltant A letter from Paris says :—Talking of letters, I may mention that the morning post from London is of very little advantage to persons in Paris to whom letters or papers are sent by it. Having noticed how frequently these were not delivered, I kept a memorandum on the subject for the six nights from Monday, the 15th, to Saturday, the 20th inst. The result is that neither letters nor papers due on the 15th, 17th, and 20th were deli. vered until the next morning, an hour or so befr.fre those sent by the night mail. On the 19th the letters were delivered, but not the papers. The proper h our o f d elivery is about half-past 7—a little earlier or later, according to the part of th e letter carrier's beat one li ves in Part from what I heur, I believe the cause of the frequent non -delivery to be that if the letters are not received sharp to a particular hour the carriers go home for the night Thus a matter of ten minutes may make all the difference, and p ro b a bl y often does, for it a is un likely that the mail train is frequently much behind time Surely 8 o'clock would not be an unreasonably late hour for the delivery, which is now fixed at half-past 7 P Another Post,. office detail which is frequently complained of is the very small weight allowed for a single letter passing between France and England. It is only three-fourths of the French inland w, and believe only h a lf that stipulated by Freuch eightG Cloven would 1 meat, it is understood, would not object to augment the weight, and, if so, it is obviously the duty of our Post. office to move in the matter. By th e pre sent syste m persons are constrained to writ e on in conveniently thin paper or to pay double postage ; and another inconvenience is that foreigners, accus tomed to a larger weight in their own country, are continually understamping letters, which are then charged on delivery something considerably more than the whole proper postage would have been—at what rate I cannot say, for, judging from my own experience, it seems to vary in a manner obscure to the non-initiated in post-office mysteries. At last the French are beginning to use postage stamps with rows of holes between them, as in England, much to the satisfaction of the vendors, and also of the general public.
