ti•oveas 'MONEY MARKET. CITY NEWS—YESTERDAY. The remittances of specie to India will for the moment be slightly checked by the detention of the mail which should have been brought by the Wrecked vessel Colombo, and which, doubtless, con tained the usual amount. of orders and draughts. The expectation of a second issue of £500,000 in bills by the India Council this month likewise limits the demand. It is said, however, that the French steamer from Marseilles at the end of the W eek will take out nearly a million, English as we ll as Fre nc h s hi ppers b e i ng l e d to prefer the French vessels from their lower charge for freight. The Peninsular and Oriental Company lately re duced. thei r c h arge to meet the French competi tio n, but h ave s i nce announced a return to their old oldterms. a T here was generally a more active demand to -37 for money, an d th e app li cat i ons at t h e B an k : e re rath er numerous from the circumstance that re 6 00,000 bill s on I n di a al l otte d on W e d nesday tsl- ' h ad to be paid for this afternoon.

His Honour gave judgment in the case of this bankrupt, a jeweller, in North -place, Finsbury, and applied last week for an order of discharge, which was opposed on the ground that the bankrupt had obtained goods without reasonable prospect of payment. His Honour considered the case had been made out, and suspended the order of discharge for six months from the present time, but granted protection. IN RE LIGHTBODY. This was an application for discharge. Mr. E. Reed was for the bankrupt, and Mr. Pook for the assignees. The bankrupt had carried on business as a beerehop keeper in Rotherhithe. The unsecured debts are very small, and if the securities held by the brewers realise ac cording to the estimate, the unsecured creditors will have a dividend of about 7s. in the pound. POLICE-THIS DAY. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. - - DISTRESSING CA SE. — DPITER'MINED ATTEMPTED Sue- ClDE.—Maria Bastard, a respectable looking young woman, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with the following deter mined attempt at suicide : On the 18th of September last the young woman, while in service in Princes-street, Hanover-square, attempted to destroy herself by cutting her throat with a razor. She was immediately taken to the Westminstet Hospital, where till to-day she has remained. She now appeared in court a pitiable condition, scarcely able to articulate, and inserted in her throat was a silver tube, she having made the at tempt on her life with such determination that she had severed the windpipe. The young woman's mistress was in attendance, and said that she was a most excellent servant, and well conducted, but she had observed her at times rather desponding. Mr. Tyrwhitt said it was quite clear the young woman was not in a fit state to be at large, and ordered Sharvill, tha minor gaoler, to convey her in a can to tne xxouoo or Detention on remand for a few days. On leaving the dock the poor creature became very ex cited, and was taken out of court in a fit. ROBBING A COUNTRY VISITOR TO THE CATTLE SHOW. —James Denman, a well-dressed young fellow, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with stealing a gold watch of the value of £1.7, the property of Mr. John Morris, farmer, of Oak ham, Rutlandshire. 18 1 1: Mr. Edward Lewis, of Great Mat lborough-street, ap peared for the prisoner. Mr. Morris said he was in London for the purpose of visiting the cattle show, and on the previous evening went to the Haymarket Theatre. He had paid for one ticket, and while paying for the other felt a push from behind, and at the same moment a tug at his watch chain, and his watch was drawn by the prisoner's hand from underneath his (Mr. Morris's) Inverness cape. Mr. Lewis put questions to the prosecutor, but he was positive the prisoner was the person who took his watch. Kelly, a linkman at the Haymarket Theatre, proved pick ing up the prosecutor's watch, which had been broken from the chain, at the pit entrance of the theatre. Speechlsy, 573 A, while on duty at the Haymarket Theatre, saw the prisoner standing at the entrance, and heard Mr. Morris say that prisoner had taken his watch. Prisoner said he had not done it, and that he was a gentle man, and it was impossible he could have done such a thing. Mr. Lewis said the prisoner, acting under his advice, would plead guilty. RITIES. 1081 I i Sergeant Cole, 23 C, said he knew the prisoner, but did not know whether ho had been committed. Committed for four months, with hard labour. IVESTMINSTER. INDEPENDENCE' bF GREECE. MEETING THIS DAY. A public meeting was held to-day at the London Tavern, for tho purpose of giving expression to the strong feeling of sympathy which existed in London in favour of the movement which had lately taken place in Greece. Mr. Crawford, M.P. for the City of London, presided. The CrreaßmArr, in opening the meeting, con gratulated the assembly on the success of the steps that had slowly taken place to restore Greece to her proper position amongst the other nations of the world. They were not there that day to discuss the subject of who was to occupy the vacant throne of that country, but solely for the purpose of t es tif y i ng how strongly they feel interested in the struggle now being carried on in Greece for liberty. The country had for yearsv been subjected to the domination o f one who had shown himself utterly incapable of Government, but he trusted that the future happiness would in a great measure compensate for the sufferings of the past. (Cheers.) Mr. B. COCHRANE; M.P., moved the first resolution He said it was no fault of the people of Greece that their country had fallen so low in the scale of nations. They, owing t) the tyranny and bad Government they had been subjected to, were entirely blameless for the lost reputation of Greece The late King had tried their endurance to the utmost limit, and when it became so infinitely bad they rose as one man and throw off the incubus that had weighed them down. (Cheers.) All that was now wanted was wise and judicious counsellors, and, if those were obtained, Greece would take that position which was her right. (Cheers.) He had great pleasure in moving the first resolution, which was as follows : " I. That this meeting, recognising the mutual interest of the several states of Europe in their common welfare and progressive advancement, desires to express its hearty sym pathy with the efforts now being made by the Greek people for the political regeneration of their country. The resolution was carried amidst loud cheers, as were also the following : 108 1 A DISAGREEABLE SURPRISE.--A dirty looking woman, giving the name of Mary Ann Everett, was charged with being drunk and creating a great disturbance. Police constable 329 B, said that at half-past seven last evening he heard great screams in Belgrave-place, and on going there found the defendant,who still continued scream ing, and complained that her daughter struck her. She had been previously in the hands of the police and let go. A gentleman is now present at whose house she had made a great disturbance. " 11. That as Englishmen they have long behold with regret the depressed condition of the Greek nation, through the mismanagement of a ruler who, acquiescing in the vio lation of solemn fianancial engagements, and indifferent to the consequent destruction of its public credit, disregarding the stagnation of the internal industry of the country, and withholding all encouragement to the development of her great natural resources, 11,13 met with the just punishment of expulsion from his government and country. " 111. That entertaining the conviction that the natural and inherent right of every nation to choose its own form of government is now too well understood throughout Europe to admit of external interference in the affairs of Greecs this meeting is as fully persuaded that in the re organisation of their political affairs the people of Greece will on their part scrupulously respect the rights of all other states. " IV. That the chairman of this meeting be requested io transmit these resolutions to the Greek committee, and to assure them that in its opinion the admirable moderation and unanimity which have marked the recent political changes in Greece entitle her people to the moral support and warm sympathy of all civilised nations." A vote of thanks to the chairman terminated the pro ceedings. SUSPECTED DEATH FROM ABORTION. Mr. Craven, of St. Michael's-terrace, Pimlico, said—On unexpectedly arriving home at half-past five last evening I found this woman in my house and my wife in a dreadful state. I found the defendant had been in the habit of coming to the house and by intimidation extorting money from my wife. She had been there in the course of the day and had refused to leave. She then had her taken to the station, when she threw stones at her and behaved very ill. She was then permitted to go at large, but re turned, thundered at the door and disturbed the whole neighbourhood, Mr. Arnold—Do you know anything of her P Complainant—To my great surprise I discovered last night that this woman was Illy with's mother. Mr. Arnold—Were you not acquainted with that fact be fore P Complainant— I was not; I did not know even of her existence until last night. Defendant—She has always disowned me. lam not fine enough for her. Complainant—And another very extraordinary thing is that my wife's sister—another of this woman's daughters— has been living servant with us and I did not know it. For 14 years I have been deceived. Mr. Arnold—And you not know your wife's sister all ,hat time. CORONER'S INQUEST.-(THIS DAY.) Complainant--I assure you I did not ; I never thought of such a thing. Mr. Arnold—lt is a very odd discovery. Complainant —It is. My wife confessed it. This woman has been for years living upon me ; I may say that she has had hundreds from my wife. She has been constantly there Defendant--I have not h a d hundre d s; during my absence th rea t ening her. so I am poor, s o my d aughter don't own me. Mr. Arnold or d ere d the defendant to enter into recognis ances to keep th e p eace for six months. how can you say The adjourned inquest into the circumstances connected with the death of Ellen Saunders was resumed this morn ing before Mr. Payne, at the George Tavern, Strand. Mr. Dickie, instructed by Messrs. Charnock, of Gray's inn, appeared for Mrs. Dr. Goss, of Great Queen-street, Lincoln's inn-field. On the former occasion Mr. Makin stated he attended the deceased some days ago and found her suffering very much from premature child birth, which she alleged had been brought on through fright. He attended upon her until her death. Mr. Edwards, surgeon, of Great Rus sell-street, said he made a post mortem examination of the body of deceased, and found the bowels very inflamed and some of the intestines perforated. Death had been caused by the inflammation, and drastic medicines for the pur poses of abortion might have caused the result. Some of the relatives of the deceased said she had taken some pills given to her by a person whom she had consulted, and the inquiry was adjourned for the purpose of allowing that party to attend. THAMES. HIGHWAY ROBBERY AND ASSAULT BY A WOMAN. — Catherine Sweeney, an Irishwoman, was brought up on remand before Mr. Woolrych, charged with assaulting and robbing Ann.Tuby, the wife of a labourer, dwelling at No. 81, Spring -gardens, a court leading out of High-street, Whitechapel, This was not a garotte robbery and outrage, but one committed from motives of personal revenge, and attended with c. , nsiderable violence. The prisoner had been impri soned under a sentence of one of the magistrates of the Won hip -street Police -court for assaulting the com plainant's daughter, Since then she had frequently an noyed and insulted the prosecutrix, and accompanied her abuse with the most dreadful threats and imprecations. A few evenings since Mrs. Tuby and her husband had been to a shop in Hi g h-str eet,Whitechapel, to purchase grocery, and were returning towards their own home when the pri soner, who was accompanied by three men, attacked her with great ferocity and knocked her down, and when she was down kicked her about the head and body. The hus band of the injured woman went to her assistance, and seized the prisoner, on which the three ruffians who accom panied her attacked him simultaneously, and beat him in a savage manner, knocked him down and kicked him while he was down. The husband was completely disabled by the ruffians. His wife had managed to rise, and the prisoner struck her again, her three companions hustled her, and shoved her from one to the other, and she was again_ hurled to the ground with great violence.• The prisoner then snatched the basket containing the grocery just purchased, from Mrs. Tuby, and ran away. Mr. and Mrs. Tuby were both seriously injured and lost a good deal of blood. The three men who joined in the outrage and robbery were at this court on the morning of the first examination, and threatened both Tuby and his wife, who unfortunately neglected to give them into custody. It did not appear that either of the injured parties gave the prisoner any provocation whatever. Mr. Woolrych committed the prisoner for trial for high way robbery with violence. MARKETS-THIS DAY. MARK-LANE. The supply of English wheat on sale at Mark-lane to-day was small, and in but middling condition. Good and fine parcels moved off steadily at full prices ; otherwise, the trade was dull on former terms. Ihe show of samples of foreign wheat, ex granary, was moderately extensive. In all descriptions sales progressed slowly, yet prices were fairly supported. Floating cargoes of grain were in moderate request at late rates. The barley trade was far from active; nevertheless, good and fine malting qualities supported former quotations. Malt cbanged hands slowly, yet prices were maintained. Oats, the supply of which was only moderate, ruled steady at late rates. Beans and peas were steady, and without change in value from Monday. In flour a limited business was transacted ; nevertheless, all kinds commanded full prices. ARRIVALS THIS Nv - REK„ Wheat. Bag : 7. R io , L. Oats. Flour.

Mr. Edwards said he could not say positively that the pills spoken of had been used to procure abortion. Mr. Dickie—lf you had not heard of the use of instru ments indirectly, could you say, from the appearance of the body, that they had been used ? Mr. Edwards—No, I could not. Mr. Makin said the pills found at the house of the de ceased had been sent to Dr. Alfred Taylor for analysation, and were found to cunsist of aloes, myrrh, and gamboge, which was a drastic medicine, and when used in large quantities would produce abortion, but in small quantities it might be taken with beneficial effect. He could not say that the ulceration had been caused by the pills. The Coroner asked Mr. Dickie if he intended to produce Mrs. Goss for examination? BOROUGH TIOP.

Mr. Edwards was recalled, and said Le saw a box nearly full of pills in the deceased's room, but no empty pill boxes. The Coroner then summed up the evidence, and remarked the ulceration spoken of could not for certain be attributed to the pills deceased had taken, which, according to the medical evidence, might have been safely used in small quantities, so there was no case against any one ; but if it had been satisfact wily proved that they had been taken in large quantities to produce abortion, then matters would stand very differently, because it was an offence of a vet) , serious nature on the part of all parties concerned in such an act. The jury, atter a short deliberation, said they were of opinion that death had been produced by ulceration of the colon, but there was no evidence to show how it was caused.

(From Fun.) Wanly walking on all of us go, Each with a dirk ready held up the sleeve, Taking a stick to return with a blow, The grasp we may get from a ticket-of-leave ; Looking about lest a fellow surprising Us, forth from some dark alley savagely flew, This is the style of pedestrianising, Through London in eighteen and sixty and two. Armed with a six-barrelled shotted revolver, Daring the danger of dusk in the Strand, Picking our way with a knife for a solver, Of what knotty problem may come to our hand; Looking to left of us, looking to nigh• of us, Steadily marking the course we pursue, This is the way that a couple, each night, of us, Go to our homes in the year sixty-two. Back to the days of the old city Charleys, Back to the times of oil-lamps in the streets, Back to the age when compelled to hold parleys With highwaymen ready for Turpin•like feats. Calling for aid, no police at the station, To cope with a cowardly night-prowling crew, And this is the height of our civilisation, In England in eighteen and sixty and two. THE ORIGIN OF LUCIFER MATCHES.—The original process, by which man first succeeded in produc ing fire, consisted in rubbing two pieces of dry wood to gether. This process, which is, however, still in use among many savage tribes, was speedily superseded, in the first period of civilisation, by the revolving wooden disk and cylinder, and this, again, by other and improved methods, until the tinder-box was introduced, with its flint and steel, and brimstone match. This venerable antique kept its ground for ages, and the time is still within the memory of many living men when it constituted our most approved means of obtaining fire. However, when, with the new era in chemistry, so many and such glorious dis coveries followed each other in rapid succession, to be applied with the same marvellous rapidity to the arts of life, the " manufacture of instantaneous light," as it has not unaptly been termed, also made a gigantic bound forward, and th e so-called Briquets phosphoriques, or inflammable match phials, made their appearance some forty odd years since. These consisted of a small phial of glass or lead, either with a bit of phosphorus inside, slightly oxi • dised by stirring it round with a red-hot iron wire, or filled with a mixture of cork-raspings, wax, petroleum, and phosphorus, incorporated by fusion. The phos phorus, or the mixture in the phial, served to kindle sulphur matches dipped into it. The so-called oxygenated matches were an improvement on the Briquets Phospho • riques. These matches consisted of splints, either tipped with sulphur or not, which were dipped in a paste, made of a mixture of pulverised chlorate of potass, flowers of sul phur, sugar, and gum arabic, with water, and were then T kept in a warm place, till th e y were thoroughly dry. H. To kindle one of these matche s , it was dipped into a small w stoppered phial, with strong sulphuric a cid in it , thickened with asbestos. These were the great improvements more immediately preceded the invention of the frictit n or instantaneous light match, which, by dispensi ng altogether with the phial, made the process of striking a light one extreme simplicity. Monet's . pump f o r kindling tinder, touchwood, &c., by compression of air, and the so - called electric lamps, were rather interesting and Dobereiner's as physical appa ratus than useful for practical p ur p oses platinum apparatus, thoug h a very neat and elegant in strument, was rather too dear for popular uses. Moreover, all these are now completely superseded by the instanta neous light match at present ' in in u niversal use, which W e l a t e ly saw manufacturedits most improved and mo s t per f ec t form, on theCo .' s occasion of Bethnal-green.-2 h e a visit to Messrs.

A HINT TO SPORTSMEN AND GAME PRESERVERS. —A correspondent informs us that Mr. Mechi has this week forwarded a cheque of £5O to Mrs. Polly: tenant-farmer on the Layer Marney Tower estate, for damage done by game where he has the preeervee.—Essex Iterald, THIRD EDInON. SUN OFFICE, SIX O'CLOCK. MEXICO. The Diaro of Madrid publishes a letter from the city of Mexico of the 29th of October, which affirms that great anarchy exists in ihe country. It says : " Colonel Buitron is making the Government of Juarez pay dearly for his services. The famous Rafael Cuellor does the same. - Those men pillage the country in such a manner as to get themselves bought off by the Government which flees itself from their hostility by loading them with piastres. Colonel Bojas, who com mands a battalion, is notorious for his atrocious crimes. The division of Comonfort is 5,100 strong; he has three batteries of artillery. His troops arrived at Azeapogollo in a deplorable state. Comonfort and Juarez are still on bad terms with each other. Juarez cannot forget that Comonfort imprisoned him, and the latter has only one idea, which is to get rid of .Tuarez in order to obtain the presidency himself. The Government of Juarez is in an extreme state of penury, and does not know what to do to assure the service of the army of the East, which is sensibly diminishing from desertion caused by famine and misery." 1108 109 1( 6 108 106 108 991 g9l 97 99 103 110 411 113 112 114 113 115 107 108 101 102 101 102 100 k 101 t 111 113 108 109 iO9 111 110 112 11(8i 109 P 21 23 05 505 pr bap 51 53 36i 374 11i (2 2 34 11 16 65 7 65 7 45 6 45 47 2 25 15 L 38 tO 85 91 5 cis pr 25 A, 2 di 4i 6 5 6 39 41 390 400 24 3 874 024 42 14 1 124 13 13 14 30 32 285 245 824 874 50 62 8 9 9 94 15 16 161 174 NE!). 4 6 id z I lip 111 1233 100 100 100 100 100 MI 1 2.14.( 3.0.0 7.16 6 571 17s 6.15. 8.12 4. 7.0 20.6 94 4.3.0 12.3 t 17.( 2.4.9 1 10.0.7 5.15. r• 28.9. 2.0.8 '2.10,8 AQUATICS. SCULLERS' RACE FOR £3O. A scullers' race came off yesterday for £1.6 a-side, but was marred at the commencement by an untoward accident. The competitors were James Kilsby, of the Old Barge-house, Blackfriars, who, although nearing 30 years of age, has done nothing of importance in the aquatic world, and Edward May, formerly of The Times Unity Rowing Club, who has rowed several races this year, and has been before the public for some time past. The men had taken good care of them selves, although the stake was small, and May had engaged Citizen Q, Capt. Whanslow, to accompany the race, betting being about 6t04 on May. They went to their stations at half-past three, Kilsby winning the toss, the distance being from Putney to Mortlake. They started level, and so rowed to the Star and Garter, when May began to draw is front, and was clearing himself when he caught a crab and they f uled, May, it is said, being in fault. This, however, was very hard to tell from the steamboat ; never theless Mr. Newnham, the referee, well known in aquatic circles for his integrity, decided, somewhat prematurely we think, that Kilsby had won, and directed him to row over the course. May, meanwhile, had turned back, expecting they were to start again, and Kilsby'a cutter going ahead of May, infringed the articles. A dispute, therefore, was raised, which will be settled by the umpires and referee meeting at Bell's Life office on Friday next. PUGILISIII. PATSY REARDON AND JEM DILLON FOR £2oo.—The match between these well known members of the ring was originally fixed to come off the same day as the late encoun ter for the championship; but as it was pointed out to the backers of the belligerents that there was no chance of the contest being got off, owing to Hicks and Gollagher having also decided to fight in the same ring, they arranged to postpone the meeting between - the combatants. The combatants were confined to lOst 21b, and on Mon day went to scale at Bob Travers's new house, near Leices ter-square, when both were within the mark. An aquatic trip had been resolved upon; and, for the purpose of being up and away betitues, the start from the metropolis was fixed to take place at an early hour, so that the expedition was well on the journey long before break of day. After a rapid voyage with a strong swinging tide, a debarkation was effected on well known ground, when Fred Oliver, the commissary, lost no time in forming the lists. Reardon had for his seconds George Crockett and John Hicks ; Bob Travers and Jerry Noon (the eccentric and un defeated) waited upon Dillon, who was far from being in such fine condition as his antagmist. The odds were 6to 4in favour of Dillon. At seven minutes to nine o'clock the men were left to commence their gallant battle. The open ing bout was an extremely long one, lasting 31 minutes, and in this round the first of the three leading points was gained by Reardon with the left. On the termi nation of the fourth round the belligerents had been con tending one hour and one minute, these bouts having each been of long duration, end the men all the time remarkably busy. As the battle progressed the combatants fought with increased rapidity, and round after round the contest, from the fearless manner in which the men fought, became in ten ely exciting. Again and again the rallies took the men all over the ring, Reardon, who had now a decided lead, administering left and right on the head; while Dillon, with the right, was effective on the body, stopping his man at times with the right guard very cleverly. In the sixth round Reardon sent his man to grass, and in the seventh Patsy again delivered a telling blow when Jern went down, so that the second of the leading points was thus n ecided in Reardon's favour. :Fo confident were his friends, and such a lead was he considGed to have, that the odds of 10 to 1 were offered. On the finish of the twelfth round the contest had lasted one hour and 23 minutes. Still the game Dillon kept coming up, round after round, with undaunted bravery. In the first ring there were 39 rounds fought, in two hours and 42 minutes—Dillon in the last two of these bouts having made his chance look much fairer by two heavy falls which he gave his opponent—when the police made their appearance. Hostilities were of course sus pended, When the ring had been formed a second time, the belligerents went to work in the same gallant and de termined style as before. In the second ring there were twenty-seven additional rounds fought, in favour of Rear don, although the manner in which Dillon contended to the last was truly heroic. At this point the ring was broken in in Jem's corner, and for the last half-dozen rounds there was a good deal of confusion, during which the police arrived. In the whole there were 56 rounds fought. The aggregate time (two rings) was three hours and eleven minutes. The backers of Reardon claimed the battle, as the ring was broken in at Dillon's corner, for the purpose, as they allege, of gaining time to let the police come up. The referee, in the confusion that prevailed, refused to give any decision until he had seen the stakeholder this day, when, doubtless, he will give such a decision as will meet the merits of the case. Oliver had a very thankless office to discharge, and it is only right to state that, in the appeals made (though some of them were of a frivolous nature), he acted with strict im partiality. THE FRENCH IN MEXICO.-A letter from Puente-Nacional, of the 30th October, in the Monzteur de l' Armee says:--" The corps Commanded by General de Bertier, which had left Vera Cruz for Japun, found on arriving atSanta Fe, a town of about 5,000 inhaie.onta, the streets and houses deserted, some poor and infirm pers6:l B alone remaining. Those persons stated that Gen. Comon fort, who commands the Mexican army, had everywhere prohibited the conciliatory proclamation of Gen. Forey from being posted up, and told the inhabitants that those who carried on any intercourse with the French would be put to death. In consequence of those threats the inhabitants fled at our approach. The other towns and villages through which our troops passed were also abandoned from the same cause. At Boca del Portrern, at Telomeo, and at Paso de Avigas not a single inhabitant *as found. The read to Jalapa, which is followed by Gen. de Beeler, is about 235 miles in length. The Spaniards formerly used it for the passage of their artillery and military convoys, but it is now in a very bad state. The carriages of the waggon train found great difficulty in getting along, and could not go on an average more than three miles a day.

EDWIN JAMES.-We read in the New York Times of Nov. 23 :-" Mrs. Edwin James has filed her complaint for a divorce from her husband, charging adul tery. It is understood that Mr. James denies the charges altogether." DOC7O.RING A PORPOISE. On Thursday morning Mr. Bartlett was good enough to send me word that he had jag receive a live porpoise. I immediately went over to the gardens, and found the poor beast well car e d f or , an d pl ace d i n a small . tank of sea water behind :the Aq uar i u m-ho use . I i mm edi a ‘tely perceived, that the porp o i se was " very bad ;" he was upon his side, and every no w an d t h en turn i ng hi s under silo'uppermost. His breathing, or rather blowing, was hard atki laboured, and his wonderfull y constructe d " blow-hole" ak t the top of his head was working with difficulty. I counted his respirations, which were eight a minute, loud and po wee tul (especially the expirations), reminding one of a m.an snoring heavily; it was quite evident that the porpoise was in a very exhausted state. Now I, as a doctor, could not help reasoning thus :—This is an animal with a fotea-- eavitied heart, warm blood, and air-breathing lungs; his; system is much exhausted from a slow process of drown ing in air; in fact, it is exactly the same condition as a human being would be half drowned in water. Reasoning thus, I could not help advis'ng stimulants, and, having gained the permission of Mr. Bartlett, we agreed to give the porpoise a dose of ammonia immediately; but how to do it was the question. There was only one way, so I bray d th e co ld water an d j umpe d into the tank with tha porpoise. I th en h e ld hi m up i n m y arms (he was very heavy) _while Mr. Bartlett poured a good dose of sail volatile and water down his throat with a soda-water bottle. I then dashed cold water on him about every ten minutes, to help the effect of the medicine. This; reatment had some salutary effect, for his respirations,. which when I first saw him were eight in the minute, increased to 10, and then to 12. In two hours' time I visited him again, and, again going into the water, lifted him up while Mr. Bartlett poured down his throat a good glaLls of stiff brandy-and-water; again the results were good—t.lae respirations increased to 13 a minute. Perceiving that the' water in which he was floating was stained with iblocd, I examined him all over, and found a wound in his tail, which was bleeding pretty fast. This I soon stopped with com mon salt. Seeing that, in spite of all done, the porpoise did not get much better, Mr. Bartlett and myself agreed to• give him another chance ; so we fished him out of his tank,, and carried him quickly to the seal's pond, and put him carefully and gently into the water. In about an hour be got decidedly better, and of his own accord swam twice, acros s the pond, using his tail with that peculiar motion seen only in the whale tribe, He was, however, very blind and stupid, for he invariably hit his nose against the edge• of the pand when he arrived there. However, he was cer tainly better for the change and clean water (for his taili had now ceased to bleed), and hii respirations were thirteen in the minute, and certainly stronger and longer. I was curious to take the temperature of his breath, which felt warm to the hand as it came out of the blowhole in a jet, striking the hand like the breath of a human being blowing hard against it. As far as I could make the experi ment with a thermometer, its temperature was about 62 or 55 degrees. There were only two objectors to his being placed in theseal pond, and those were " Kate" and " Tow,' the two seals, the rightful inhabitants thereof. It was most absurd to see them cut away in the greatest alarm to the further end of the pond, turn suddenlyround, and stare up at the poor sick porpoise with their huge eyes distended to twice their size ; and then down again they went in an in stant under their house, shortly to reappear and have another long and frightened stare at the intruder. I fear the poor porpoise —who was caught at Brighton and allowed unfortunately to spend several hours panting on a fis,hmon gees slab in Bond-street—will die after all, in spite of the brandy-and -water and other treatment. He has had too many hours' start of his doctor. However, the stimulative treatment, I really believe, prolonged his existence, even. if it would not save life. However, we have gained one fact at least, 1. e., that it is possible to transplant a living por-• poise to the gardens, and that he will live out of the sea several hours. This is most encouraging to the idea of Dr. Sclater, the secretary, Mr. Bartlett, and many Fel lows of the society, who are very desirous of having, ono of these days, a live porpoise at the Zoological; and should any gentleman residing at Dever, Folkestone, Brighton, Southampton, or any place within easy reach of London, be kindly willing to aid in procuring a live and uninjured specimen (I should say tie him by the tail in the sea when caught), Mr. Bartlett, or myself, if telegraphed for, will run down and see if we cannot bring him up alive to London, in the place of our sick marine friend—to whom in spite of his present condition we wish a speedy cure.— Field. GREECE AND HER PEOPLE. Greece by her revolution has naturalised herself among nations. She set up a landmark of progress by her mode ration, and given a pledge to futurity by her sensible repu diation of an unreal dynasty. Greece owed no allegiance to her late King beyond that invblvcd in the observance of a. contract. Good government, paternal solicitude, legitimate, ambition, and rightly-directed energies would have secured: national advancement, filial gratitude, and enlightend: obedience. No nation more than the Greek displays under• an able chief the qualities of clanship. Great natural intel— ligence and a sufficient appreciation of the good things or life would have ensured implicit obedience to a wise leader whose conduct indicated any chance of advancement. Greek does not covet political power if it be employed by h a rulers for his benefit. He is content with his olive groves and his vineyard, his counting-house and his traba•• cola, so long as the ruler to whom power is de!egated Aaows him a fair prospect that his interests are secure aril his future promising. But a Greek wants his governors to work for him, to discharge the duties for which they are paid.. Provided this be done ha does not care much for active liberty and looks upon the franchise as a trouble, the advan iges of which are so remota as to be unmarketable. lies does not like paying taxes, and will not do so unless com pelled; but when the screw is put on, the money is, some how or other, forthcoming, and he is not very much annoyed with the state creditor who forces him to discharge his state liabilities. He reverences authority, and all the more when firmly or even severely exercised ; but authority must be wise, farsighted, and beneficent—mild in appear ance, if not in reality. Where an Englishman resents interference the Greek courts it. Nothing can be done. without the initiation of Government. This once secured, the Greek will faithfully and intelligently follow the lead and even improve on it. To those who. know anything ,f Greece it is patent that the shortcomings o that country are wholly and exclusively attribut able to the late King and Queen. With regard to the: deposed, we should, if possible, follow the canon esta blished for the dead—chronicle their virtues and be silent their faults. Such a course in this case would involve absolute silence. Of their private merits we may speak in erms of commendation. The termination of their dynasty, is the best commentary of their public career. They have: !net with no violence as they have created no party. They' have left no name and they excite no sympathy.—Church and State ,Review. THE ROBBERY OF £B3O IN LEEDS.—CAPTURE OF ,iNornzu MAN.—On Saturday, at the Town Hall, James Kirk, cloth dresser, Little London, was brought up, charged with being concerted in the robbery of £B3O from the offices of the Aire and Calder Navigation Company, in Leeds, ors the 21st ult. The prisoner was apprehended at half-past one o'clock on Saturday morning at the Old Globe public house, Bradford, by Inspector Hunt. As soon as Kirk saw the officer he took one of his boots off and with it aimed a blow At him. Hunt immediately knocked him down, secured him, and brought him to Leeds. The prisoner had £lO 16s in his possession. It is stated that the prisoner has been in Bradford ever since the robbery. He was remanded till to-day.--Leeds -Mercury. METROPOLITAN BENEFIT SOCIETIES' AECTLUM. —This building, in the Ball's Pond-road, Islington, has been thoroughly repaired and embellished, and a handsome iron railing erected in front. Added to which, the com mittee have invested £7,000 as an Endowment Fund, the" income of which is to be paid to the inmates. To celebrate the event of the completion of the repairs, and the start of the institution upon a new footing, the committee and their friends intend meeting at a dinner, to be held at the George and Blue Boar Hotel, on Friday evening next (12th), when Henry Campkin, Esq., F.S.A., will preside. GERMAN ANTIQUITIES.—In the Reveu Content poratne we find an interesting archaeological article by Dr. Frocebner, from which we gleam the following items. In tyria, a great number of tumuli have been opened, called by the people of " Pa'an cones." They are chiefly met with in groups of from 20 to 30 in the midst of clumps of trees and on the banks of rivers, They all conta;n long coffins made of wicker -work ; but those tumuli that con tain skeletons are considered to have been graves for the poor, on account el the few objects of value which are found in them ; those on the contrary in which the ashes of dead bodies are found, also contain bronze arms and ornaments, evidently the work of native artists, but bear ing a strong affinity to Etruscan art. Thus, for instance, two votive hands, skilfully made of bronze plates, have been brought to light, as also three small shields, adorn d with designs of animals and men executed in relief. All these objects are chiselled after the Etruscan fashion. At Sigmaringen on the Upper Danube, a Roman camp, sur rounded with ramparts, has been found, with the house of the general, that of the treasurer, and other buildings still discernible. LIVING OUT or TowN.--The fatigue:of a railway' journey, great as it is, is trifling compared with the fatigue of a journey by coach, if the distance be considerable. The Report dwells with iterated emphasis on the "concussions" occasioned by the vibration of the locomotive. But as far a* our experience goes, an hour's jolting over the street in an omnibus is far more trying than an hour's railway journey. People look back fondly at the good old coach days ;" but if they will try the effect of a long journey in a diligence, in those parts of the Continent where diligenoes still Fly, and compare it with a journey by rail oecu r y in g an e q ual number of hours, they will be disabused, an d will admit that, sp ar by c oach to London from Scotland, he from the gain in time, the gain in comfort on the rail is very considerable. We do not deny the fact of the " concus sions," but we are reminded that when the late Lord Camp bell first travelled was advised to stay a day at York, as the rapidity of the motion ~,ad c aused several thoroughgoing passengers to townygurraust ride, either by rail, coach, or omnibus; a ou live ou of n e g n e o r o u u g 11 , r c e as sid e e s nc e e ve g n re d a a t t o c ounterbalance this ?—anthill Magazine. l i o s u rhe ri a d d e v i a s n f t a a t g g e u o l n f g i o a u la r d Cpl om r ye ".11.11.1.11 ted 'ar" ing Y tui 0 th e lead oa t ill' odd- ) 00 11 . c portt evi' as in•. 11.11° di 7 2, IA I 67 i 125 ipl , 69 ipti, 126 120 100 121 117 12S 124 102 123 120 Fl} 1 e 6 s 9 21 t 1 29 34 34 stock 100 100 100 100 100 100 stock stock 20i 20i 100 100 stock stock stook stock stock 5 1 1 20 28.24
