At Manchester spinners have slightly re duced the price of yarns, while cloths generally have been at lower quotations. The woollen trade at Leads has continued dull, the chief operations having been in light fabrics for the spring demand.

FOItEIG: Business done CORN EXCHANGE. There was a moderate business doing in wheat in most of the country markets held on Saturday, and both red and white qualities realised about previous currencies. Spring corn rnet a dull inquiry ; but there was a slight improvc 'silent in the sale for flour, Very little change has taken place in the grain trade throughout the Continent; but the transactions for spring shipment have been on a limited scale. In America, pro duce generally has sold at frill quotations. The arrivals of English grain up to our market last week were small. From abroad we received 37,510 qrs of wheat; 5,355 barley ; 9,613 oats ; 740 beans ; 660 peas ; 115 tares; 4,254 linseed ; 1,838 rapet.eed ; 110 sundry seeds; and 75,704 barrels of flour. The fresh arrivals of English wheat, both from Essex and Kent, to this morning's market were very moderate, but the general condition of the samples was by no means good. The demand, however, for all qualities ruled de cidedly inactive ; neverthess a fair clearance was effected at the close of busine s, and, compared with Monday last, no quotable change took place in the currencies. The show of samples of foreign wheat was large, and sales progressed slowly in all descriptions, yet prices, on the whole, were fairly supported. Floating cargoes of grain were in moderate, but by no means active, request, at late rates. Really fine samples of malting barley were firm, and the quotations were well maintained. Secondary and inferior qualities, however, as well as grinding and distilling sorts, were a dull inquiry, at barely stationary prices. In malt a limited business was transacted, on former terms. Good and fine oats were in steady demand at quite previ *us rates, but inferior qualities were a dull inquiry, at rather lower prices. For beans—the supply of which was moderate—there was a fair demand at late rates. White peas were dull, at barely previous quotations. Other kinds, however, ruled steady at late currencies. Owing to the large arrival of American flour the demand for town-made and country-made qualities was much re stricted. Millers, however, appeared indisposed to make further concessions in prices. In American barrels a fair business was transacted, at a slight fall in their value. CURRENCY PER IMPERJAL MEA.SlYitit.

THIRTY-FIRST DAY. Mr. Chambers proceeded this morning with his conclud ing speech in favour of the petitioners. He was happy to think that on one branch of this inquiry there was no diffe rence between one side and the other—he alluded to the " experts" in medical science with regard to this malady. He thought there was an adage that doctors often dis agree, the doctors in this case who had come to give evi dence on one side had not been contradicted by the doctors who had come for Mr. Windham. In substance they en tirely agreed. From the mouths of those who had been called for Mr. Windham most important evidence had been adduced to support the case of the petitioners. With regard to the general evidence, he considered that viewed through the medium of the scientific evidence it was conclusive. He was quite convinced that the jury understanding as they now did the principles which were to govern them in their decision, must inevitably come to the conclusion that it was their duty to guard Mr. Windham by their verdict, in his present state of mind, from being victimised, injured, and destroyed bypersons who were ever ready to prey upon weakness, especially when that weak ness was accompanied by wealth or moderate means. The four "experts" who had Leen called were Dr. Tuke, Dr. Seymour, Dr. Sutherland, and Dr. Conolly. Amongst the class of " experts" ho did not class Mr. Hancock, Mr. Gwyn, Dr. Whedborne, and Dr. Babington, because they had not paid exclusive attention to diseases of the mind. With regard to Dr. Tuke, it was clear that he had acted as an attorney in the caw, from the commence- ment until it was confided to the respectable firm of solicitors who were now conducting it. He had written out his evidence three times, and yet he had made a very serious mistake in fixing upon General Windham a charge of delirium tremens, whereas it was to General Wind• ham's brother that young Mr. Windham alluded to when he made a communication to Dr. Tuk on that sub ject. After making such a mistake as that, Dr. Tuke might have made 20 others of a most serious kind ; in fact he had made one other very serious mistake when he gave evidence with regard to the occupation of the patients in the Asylum for Idiots at Earlswood. His evidence has been contradicted on many of these points by Dr. Tuke's father-in-law, Dr. Conolly, who was called at a later period of the inquiry: Dr. Tuke had further stated that he should consider Mr. Windham to be imbecile if he had settled the whole of his property on his wife. The fact was, that he had given more than the whole value of his property to his wife, and had reduced himself to the position of a beggar. The transac tions with Emmanuel, and the issuing of the placard calling upon the people of England to assist him, were, he contended, clear symptoms of imbecility. The learned gentleman is not expected to conclude his address to-day. CRIMINAL COURT.-(THIS DAY). OLD COURT. The January sessions of the Central Criminal Court com menced this morning before the Lord Mayor, Sheriffs, and other civic authorities. The calander contains the names of 63 persons for trial. The Recorder, in charging the grand jury, said he was sorry to say that the calander contained some vary serious indictments, one of which was that of murder. The person indicted with the capital offence was named John Quigly. the deceased's name being H. Beckett. The prisoner had, according to the depositions, attempted to keep forcible possesssion of premises occupiel by ~ him as an office, and on the officers going to eject him he defied them, and threatened to stab any one will attempted to break in. The door was, after some time, forced, when the prisoner, who had a knife in his hand, stabbed the deceased in the abdomen. The prisoner was secured, and after some time the person upon whom the injuries had been perpetrated, died. In the event of the evidence bearing out the depositions, it would be their duty to return a true bill against him. There was also a very serious charge against a prisoner named Walter Crane, the person injured being the brother of Crane. The learned gentleman repeated the facts connected with this case, which have repeatedly appeared in The Sun during the examination of the prisoner before the police authorities at the Clerkenwell Police Court. The other case referred to by the Recorder was, that of a prisoner named Nutt, a jeweller; ,but he did not think there was any occasion to detain them from entering on the performance of their duties. The grand jury then retired, and soon after the trial of the prisoners commenced. - ------- CHARGE OP EMBEZZLEMENT. Edward Mittle was indicted for embezzling certain monies, the property of his employers, Messrs. Cross. The prisoner was defended by Mr. Langford. The employers of the prisoner carried on the business of soap manufacturers, and he was engaged as a traveller, to solicit orders for the firm in London. The money, which the prisoner was charged with stealing, was received by him from customers, and never paid over, as it ought to have been, the day after it was received. Mr. Langford, in his defence, urged that the monies had been spent in pushing the business of the of the prosecutors. A number of witnesses who; had given their evidence for the prosecution also gave the prisoner a very good character. The jury returned a verdict of guilty. The Recorder asked how much the whole of the deficien cies amounted to. Mr. Cross said about £7O. He begged to recommend the prisoner to the merciful consideration of the court. The Recorder said the ordinary sentence the court usually passed, where a confidential servant robs his em ployer, was one of penal servitued, but under all the cir cumstances :of the case, he should only sentence the pri soner to 18 months' imprisonment with hard labour. An application was made to the court to postpone the trial of Nutt, the jeweler, until next session, but the Re , corder refused to accede to the request. NEW COURT. (Before the Common Sergeant.) EMBEZZLEMENT. Charles Amos Foster plead guilty to embezzling certain moneys, the property of his employers, Messrs. Pewtreas and others. The prosecutors strongly recommended the prisoner to mercy. The Common Sergeant said the sentence of the court was very much influenced by the fact that the parties who had been plundered were the first to come forward and ask that mercy should be extended to him. The sentence of the court was, that the prisoner be imprisoned with hard labour for nine calendar months. THE WEATHER. PROBABLE BEFORE WEDNESDAY. North Britain..

LAW INTELLIGENCE—(This Day). COURT OF CHANCERY. (Before Vice-Chancellor Sir William Page Wood.) MOTION FOR DECHEE.-JUDDMENT.-ST. THOMAS'S HOSPITAL V. CHARING-CROSS RAILWAY. His Honour the Vice-Chancellor said,—This case comes before me on a motion for decree which has now been argued. The whole case rests on a point of construction in a clause of the act of Parliament which contains the provi sions necessary for the protection of St. Thomas's Hospital, in regard to the property that the company had a mind to take. Now, by this clause it is declared that the directors of the company shall not enter upon any lands until after the expiration of one year after giving notice, and that they shall not take the lands and hospital until 18 months after giving notice. Now the question is whether, from the usual notice given, the land being required for a public railway, they are entitled to take the land at the expi ration of a year, or whether they are required to give 18 months' notice. The question raised on the part of the hospital is that the company are not entitled to take ant part of the land, or the hospital, until 18 months' notice is given and expired of their intention to take the land and the hospital. His Honour, in considering the seventh and sixty-eighth sections of the Railway and Lands Clause Consolidation Acts, was of opinion that the plain tiffs were entitled to a decree restraining the defendants from entering on the land of the plaintiffs until the expiration of one year from the 21st July, 1861, when the defendants had served notice on the plain tiffs that they had appointed an arbiter to concur with the arbiter Appointed by the plaintiffs to fix the compensa • tion for the lands to be taken, and decreed accordingly with costs ; and as an interim decree continued the injunction, and undertaking to abide by any claim of damages. His Honour declined to allow the deposit to b 3 with drawn from the bank, and observed that if the whole land and hospital were to be taken, 18 months' notice was neces sary to enable the directors to remove the patients—i.e, six months after the expiration of one year after the original notice, and that a second notice was necessary to be given. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner Goulburn). MPORTANT QUESTION AS TO DISCHARGE FROM CUSTODY. IN RE ROACIR, The plaintiff was described as late of the Rue de la Vic torie, Paris, subsequently of the New York Hotel, Leicester square, and now of the Queen's Bench Prison, and now applied to be released from custody. Mr. Drew, New Ba s inghall-street, was the solicitor to the bankrupt. but being engaged on important business at Westminster, a short adjournment was asked. Mr. Sargood opposed any delay, and applied to the Court to make an order that the bankrupt should not be allowed to apply again until the meeting for the last examination. His Honour did not see that he had power to make any such order. Mr. Sargood said the bankruptcy was on the adjudication of ➢ir. Registrar ilaz , itt, who, however, refused to order a discharge in consequence of facts stated to him. The oppos ing creditors had been put to expenses through the bank rupt having given notice that he should apply at the meet ing for choice of assignees, but he did not appear, nor was any assignee chosen. The bankrupt was an American, and had gone to Paris, where he contracted large debts, and having come to England a capias issued, on which he was taken into custody. His Honour, after hearing the arguments of Mr. Sargood, said he should not make any order at present, either as to release or costs. The bankrupt was therefore taken back to prison. He is said to be a gentleman possessed of large property in South Carolina. CAUTION TO INSOLVENTS-IN RE PAINE. This bankrupt was a tailor in the Strand, and now sur rendered to an adjudication on a petition presented by Mr. Drew. It appears that the bankrupt was an insolvent at Can terbury, but he omitted several creditors with the intention of paying them, but, not having been able to do so, the present. proceedings were taken. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—( This Day.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. ATTEMPTED MURDER BY A FEMALE.—Ruth Elsden, an unfortunate, who has several times been charged at this court, was brought up, charged with attempting.to murder Thomas Foskett, potman at the Duke of York, Union street, Oxford street, by stabbing him with a knife. The prisoner had once before assaulted Foskett, and was sentenced to seven days' imprisonment in default of paying a fine, and there is little doubt that it was a feeling of revenge for his having appeared against her that induced her to commit such a desperate assault on him—it evidently being her intention, from the threat she made use of, to take his life. The following certificate was handed to the magistrate Middlesex Hospital, Jan. 27. " I hereby certify that Thomas 'Foskett is a patient in this institution, suffering from a severe punctured wound of the ear, and is not in a fit state to be removed. " Wm. N. MARSHALL, House Surgeon." James Harrold, 207, C, said—On Saturday night I was called to the " Duke of York," and there saw a man bleed ing from the head. I asked who had done it, and before the landlord could speak the prisoner said, " I did it and meant to do it." I thon. toc,ll ker into custody.. JoEeph Reed, 60 D—l was called to the house and + the prisoner there and the man Foskett sitting on a forni bleeding from the head copiously. Prisoner said, " Look here fatty (the constable is a stout man), so help me God I did it and intended to do so." I then asked where the knife was, and the landlord said he had put it away, but he gave it to me. It is the knife produced. The prisoner had been drinking, but well knew what she was about. The knife had blood on it at the time. I then took Foskett to the Middlesex Hospital. Mr. George Atherfold, landlord of the Duke of York Union-street, said, —I have known the prisoner as a despe rate character for some time past, and had forbidden her to come to my house. On Saturday night she came in and annoyed my customers, and I told her that if she did not keep quiet I would turn her out. She then sa id, "If you do, it will be a bad job for you, for I've got some thing in my pccket." She then said she wanted to speak to him, but I would not allow it. She then went into the tap-room, where Foskett, my potman was, and ho came out in about two minutes bleeding and stabbed through the ear. The prisoner put the knife on the counter, and I took it up. Sho then said she meant to do it, and hoped she had "killed the —." She also said, " I meant this for you, and will do it when I come out." The prisoner has also threatened my 'daughters. Foskett at the time was in the taproom about his business. Edward Clements, stable man, at 68, New Bond-street, said—l was in the taproom at the time, and was a little distance off. I saw the prisoner put her hand intu her pocket and take the knife out, and open it, and then say, "There, you —, take that; you have given me 7 days." She then made a downward stab at Foskett, his back being towards her. Mr. Atherfold—l have not the least doubt that she meant to have stabbed me, as I am told a person saw her with the knife in her hand when she tiled to speak to me. Mr. Tyrwhitt—l shall remand her to see the result of the wound, which I trust will not prove fatal. Prisoner was then remanded. THE EASTER MONDAY VoLUNTEI R GATHERING AT BRIGHTON. Lord Ranleigh has determined, with the assent of a very large number of the commanding officers of metropolitan volunteer regiments, to have another grand review and field day at Brighton on Easter Monday next, the operations at which will be of a far more important character than those of last year. Lord Ranelagh still adheres to his opinion that the volunteers require occasionally something more than the mere routine of company and battalion drill to render the military duties entailed upon them less irksome and more attractive, and continues to maintain that it is only by brigade field days and other large gatherings that they can be brought to a sense of their practical utility by perform ing such evolutions as they would be required to carry out before an enemy. Another point proposed to be achieved is to prove the facility with which a very large number of volunteers could be thrown at a given time on any part of our coast which might be threatened by an invasion. The circumstance of a fine day at Brighton, whilst the opposi'e prevailed at Wimbledon last Easter Monday, has had a powerful influence, if not upon the minds of commanding officers, certainly upon those of the general body of officers and effectives of the various corps, in raising a desire for a field -day under Lord Ranelagh, at Brighton. The word " Wimbledon" appears to suggest a cold, damp, and chilly atmosphere, if not even the still greater evil of a thorough soaking wet day to the volunteer. It is anticipated, therefore, that the vo lunteer review to be held at Brighton on Easter Monday will be attended by double the number of volunteers from the metropolis present on the last occasion. The aggregate n e a u n n m b t ieers h , in a c s l ü b d e i e n n g a t I h r o e a s e d y o f e t s h t i e r a C a i n t r a e t F2so,rotosoa,nbduadjoining e think as exaggeration. Amongst the regiments whose corn • m ending officers have already , it is it stated,. fi assented are of 3 course, the South Middles ex, the City e Brigade, 'West 5 1 Middlesex, the 3d City of London, the 7 w th y h whole of Surrey, the the e,t Tower lh H the 2 Hamlets Corps, the Ist Surrey, the d i f n e g e ltionng, ethxhelib3i7tethd Surrey, the second A.dministrative Battalion of Middlesex, the 20th Middtesex, the Central London, the Finsbury ofthietirflee,Vments which participated in the \Vitale- Rifles, the Inns of C o urt, the s t hae proof 3 6 t ofP ad 1,3„ 1 o s o a m , : e h r don evolutions of last year, the fact may be mentioned that when an announcement was made on pante& to the North Middlesex (29th), at Albany- s t reet B arracks on Wed nesday evening last, that it was Lord Enfield's intention t h e y s hould this year go to Brighton, it was received by de men with loud cheering. Similar demonstrations of satis faction have been expressed by other corps which were at Wimbledon last year, and there is also a better feeling am ongst certain commandin g officersthanpreviously existed, so that there is a probability of such regiments as the Queen's, the London Scottish, London Irish, &c., taking part in the Brighton review. So far as the capabilities of the Brighton Railway are concerned, Lord Ranelagh ex presses himself with confidence, and states that they will be upon a still more liberal scale than those of last year. 81)0.R LING IN TEL L IGENC F • BETTING AT MANCRESTER.-SATURDAY. There is little probability of any amount or business being done on the Chester Cup until the acceptances ar• published.

(From the Weekly Dispatch.) The Horning Post is anxious not to bias the course of justice by any untimely remarks upon the ca se no t yet ad judged between the Popo of Salisbury and Dr. Williams ; but that journal considers it to be its duty just to let the public know, as a piece of news, that the issue is " one of unspeakable importance, for it involves the question whe ther the Bible is or is not inspired." Now we must have our piece of news too, and that is, that it involves no suck thing. The question is, whether all and every part of the Bible is equally inspired, the essential and the unessential ; whether the list of names in a genealogy is as inspired as the " two great commandments ;" whether, when two as sertions, narratives or principles, contradicting each other, are read in different books, both are equally inspired, and both must be equally held sacred ; whether the Bible, which, reasonably understood, contains in itself the mop t consummate wisdom the world possesses, is to be the most uncertain and harmful book in the world by being read with a want of candour and allowance which it would be consi dered shameful to exhibit in tee consideration of any other work. This is the true issue, which, not polemically, but, as plain matter of fact, we think it right to iterate in this column. Moreover, the Morning Post assures us " that the question now at issue is not whether Baron Bunsen, or still more his reviewer, were sight or wrong absolutely ; but, given certain formularies, given a commonly accepted interpretation of them, is Dr. Williams's view consistent with the latitude always allowed in relation to them ?" Well, this may turn out to be the issue decided. But sup pose this issue should be decided against Dr. Williams, and the other issue whether he is right or wrong absolutely" is given by the public in his favour, we put it to the Morn ing Post whether this will not altogether override the minor question, and leave the Church and its Courts con demned by a somewhat higher authority than that by which they may condemn Dr. Williams. We believe that it is high time that they should be fully aware of this, and, humbly act upon the knowledge. The sum raised in the Stock Exchange for the widows and families of the miners at Hartley Colliery amounts to nearly £l,OOO, _ _ lire ( Army and _Navy Gazette) are glad to state that the War-office has sanctioned an advance of six months' extraordinary field allowance to the troops lately ordered to Canada.

Remarkable alike for her kindness of heart, her enlarged understanding, and her 'harming amenity of manners, the deceased lady was the centre of a widely- extended circle of friends, who will long and deeply lament her loss." IRON SHIPBUILDING IN AMERICA.—The Ameri cans are resolved not•te be behindhand in the race which the Western Powers are running in inth shipbuilding, :as we hear upon pod authority that inquiries are now being made on the part of the Feder et Government in this coun try for plans of the most approved character ; and as the Lords of the Admiralty have decided upon constructing a vessel on Captain Coles's method, we believe that it is not unlikely that this may also be adopted by our friends on the other side of the Atlantic. We have heard 30 gunboats mentioned as the number likely to be required by Mr. Lin coln.—Army and Navy Gazette. WRECK IN CARMARTHEN BAY.—FERRYSIDE, Jan. 25.—The wreck that occurred in Carmarthen Bay yesterday appears to be the Diana of Citti, from Cardiff to Cadiz with coals. The crow were all fortunately saved in their own boat. Pieces of the wreck are now floating about the sands in all directions. The gale of Friday was one of the heaviest ever experienced in Carmarthen Bay. The crew of the lifeboat of the National Lifeboat Institution speak in the highest terms of her qualities. DISTRESSING SHIPWRECK IN CARDIGAN BAY.-- , CARDIGAN, Sunday night.—Yesterday evening a most dis tressing shipwreck took place in Cardigan Bay. About noon a brig was seen near the island with signals of distress flying. As soon as possible the lifeboat of the National Lifeboat Institution, manned by 12 men, proceeded off to her assistance. In the meantime, however, seven out of eight of the crew of the vessel had taken to their own boat, which immediately capsized, and drowned the whole of them. It had fortunately happened that the poor manwho had been left on board had missed the ship's boat when she left the vessel. He was afterwards safely put on shore by the Cardigan lifeboat. The brig, which was dismantled and waterlogged, was the Pioneer, of Caruarvon, laden with a cargo of wheat from Galitz. The Aberystwith new life boats also belonging to the National Lifeboat Institution, had put off to the wreck, but was unable, in the fury of the hurricane, to fetch it, JUMPING FROM AN EXPRESS TRAIN.—On Satur day, as the down express train, which reaches Taunton at 1.37, was passing Durston, a man of gentlemanly appear ance was observed to throw himself from the window of one of the carriages on to the side of the line. Mr. Snow, landlord of the Railway Inn, and some other persons, hur ried to the spot, expecting to find nothing but the lifeless remains of the unfortunate man. They were, consequently, , considerably astonished to find that beyond a few scratches and bruises he was unhurt. lle was brought on to Taunton by the next train, and, in answer to the station-master, said he could assign no reason for the rash act of which to had been guilty, but suppo-ed he must have gone to sleep and jumped out of the window while dreaming.—Somerset Gazette. The Civil Tribunal of Havre has been recently called on to decide in an action brought by the commune of Roserville against M. Paul de Bois-Hebert and Mme. Per tuzon, to recover a piece of land planted with 500 apple-trees on the ground that the property was common land, and had been unduly appropriated about two centuries since by the feudal lords of the domain of Orcher. During the trial it was proved that the land in question formed part of an estate which had been purchased, but not paid for, by the celebrated financier Law, and that on his failure it was sold b ancestors decree o o f f t t h h o e d G e f o o v n e d r n a o m t s e , n w t h i n o o l e 7 t 2 i 3 t 1 , e and o u s bought r f b o y r t b h o o considered indisputable. After hearing counsel on both sides, the Tribunal decided that the Government decree constituted a valid title, and accordingly rejected the de• mand of the commune with costs. A SARCASTIC THIEF.—On the night of the 14th of this month, Mr. Wm. Wood, of Stanningley, near Brad ford, left Leeds in a third-class carriage, on the Leeds, Bradford, and Halifax Junction Railway. He had with him a small box, containing 24 watches, valued altogether at about £6O. The box was tied up in a red handkerchief. Mr. Wood got out of the train at the Stanninglv station, but his brig of watches had either vanished before he arrived there or was left in the carriage. Some days afterwards a ae c te i in r o c ial u e l of a tf t circulated i b ena third-class which a reward of £5 was hii wo p ff r a i o n sr th esdt d aft l oe i a dr n tt d ho b eh il ra l ev w set a obr s c o o p r e i r i t a y a , which o s rd si - n c g las p s r train by which the owner travelled. A woman having given information that she saw a man of indifferent charac ter, hying at Pudsey, carrying the lost box away from . the station, his house was visited and searched by the police, but without finding any trace of the watches, and nothing was heard of the property until Friday morning last, when the box and red handkerchief, enclosed in brown paper, were found in (ne of the waiting-rooms at the Great Northern Railway Station, Bradford. The parcel had Upon it the direction, " Mr. Wood, watch dealer, Stanningley, going to Leeds." On the box being opened the only thing found inside was a slip of white paper, with writing upon it, of which the following is a verbatim et liter atim copy : " i have sent box back and think on and keep better ,stuf when tba gets some more dont blame that Pudsey man bo case he hascnt got them, and twoman says that she saw him have a black box back on him.
