(Before the Lord Chief Justice (Cockburn), Mr. Justice Wightman, Mr. Justice Crowder, Mr. Justice Byles, and Mr. Justice Williams.) CAMPELL AND OTHERS V. SEWELL AND OTHERS. Mr. Millwright resumed his argument for the respondent. The question raised was whether, by the law of Norway, the captain had a right to sell the cargo of a Prussian ship for £650, wrecked on the coast of Norway on her passage to England, and whether such sale was binding on the consignees in England. The Court of Exchequer held the sale good. The sale must be governed by the lex loci of the goods saved, and not by the lex foci of the domicile of the consignor or con signees. The Captain was acting within the limits of his 10.! delegation in selling the cargo. The case is not concluded. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH. (Sittings at Nisi Prius, in Middlesex, before Mr. Justice Cromi.tOn and a Common Jury.) lIIINTINGFORD V. MASSIE. This was an action for fraudulently misrepresenting the value of the goodwill of the Magpie and Stump public house, Nowgato-street, and inducing thereby the plaintiff, a widow, to become the purchaser of the business. The case was opened at mid-day on Monday, it occupied the whole of yesterday, and was not concluded when we went to press. Mr. Edwin James, Q.C., and Mr. Gordon Allen appeared for the plaintiff; Mr. Sergeant Parry and Mr. W. Williams for the defendant. CBIMINAL COURT.-(TI IS DAY.) OLD COURT. (Before Baron Bramwell.) THE CHARGE AGAINST SMETHURST. Mr. Sleigh applied to the learned judge to fix the trial of Thomas Smethurst, for the first thing to-morrow morning. There wore a great many witnesses in attendance, and as it was not at all likely the case which stood in the list for that morning would be reached in time to be proceeded with, it would be a great convenience to all parties if it was fixed for to-morrow morning. Baron Bramwell—Why is it in my list at all? I thought the cases of bigamy were tried in another court. Is there any special reason why I should take it ? Mr. Clark (on the part of the prosecution)—lt is by no arrangement of mine that it is in your lordship's list. . Baron Bramwell—lf it is to remain in my list I have no objection to try the case, but I have some doubt about fix ing it for to-morrow. It may be reached to-day. My brother Byles, who is detained at 'Westminster, has not yet arrived, and without consulting him I don t feel dis posed to make any arrangement in the matter. He will, however, be hero later it the day, when the matter can be again mentioned ; in the meantime let some inquiry be made to [see why the case cannot be taken before some other judge. THE CASE OF DAVID HUGHES. The trial of this prisoner, who stands indicted for fraudu lent bankruptcy, has been postponed until next session. CHILD MURDER. Sarah Jane Wiggins was indicted for the murder of a male child, three-and-a-half years old, by tying it to a bed-post. Mr. Clark, who appeared for the prosecution, said the prisoner cohabited with a man, the father of the child, and that its death was occasioned by the severe punishment in flicted upon it by the prisoner, who tied it to the bed-post horizontally from seven o'clock on Tuesday night until seven o'clock the next morning. The learned gentleman then called— Emma Scott, who said—l am married, and reside at No. 4, Clarence Cottage, Hackney, tho same hou's'e` in which the prisoner resided. Sho lived with a man named White, who left her, three weeks before the child died, with three children—two girls and one boy. The boy was about 3} years old. I last saw the boy alive on Tuesday, the 22d of September. The deceased was under the doctor's hands for an abscess. On that day I went out about five o'clock in the afternoon, and when I returned about six o'clock I found he had been put to bed. Prisoner came home at a quarter to eight o'clock. She went to that room. I heard her go upstairs, and then I heard heavy slaps, as though given with the open hand, but I heard no scream. After that I saw prisoner come downstairs and go out, taking the eldest girl with her. Sho returned in about half an hour, it being then a quarter to nine. The following morning I saw the eldest girl come downstairs, and at 20 minutes to 8 o'clock I heard heavy slaps above. They were repeated five or six times. I did not hear any scream or cry ? The prisoner was then upstairs. About half-past 8 o'clock I heard prisoner come downstairs, and saw her pass my window in a great hurry, almost running: She came back in a quarter of an hour, went upstairs, returned directly, and screamed at the top of the stairs. I went to my door and asked " What is the matter ?" She replied, " Oh, my little Jemmy has gone." I said, " Oh, dear me ; notdead ?" and she answered, " Yes; go and see." I ran up. and saw the child with its clothes on lying upon the bed. It was quite still. We both went downstairs, and the doctor entered as I was going out for assistance. It was then about a quarter to 9 o'clock, When the doctor was there she said she could not account for the bruises. I saw the bruises then ; and after he had gone she told mo that the child had been very weak—relaxed in the inside. I have often heard heavy slaps, never seen them given. On the Tuesday the prisoner told ma that during the past night the child had been relaxed in his inside, and made much mess. On the next day, Wednesday, she told me that the child had made no more dirt, and she did not think ho would again, as she had punished him. I asked "In what way did you punish him ?" and she answered, " I took him upstairs when the other children went to bed, and after ho was undressed and bad said his prayers, I tied him to the bedstead, with his hands fastened down." I said, " Oh, Lord, you surely did not keep him there all night ?' and she answered " Yes, I did, until 7 o'clock this morning." Cross-examined by Mr. Poland—The room I resido in is a small one. A passage divides the room. I have two rooms, one up, and tho other down stairs. The prisoner had another child besides besides the three I have men tioned living with her. White and the prisoner seemed to live very comfortably together. I never saw her illtreat the little boy Jemmy. By the Judge—The general conduct of the prisoner to wards the children was kind, but she sometimes slapped them. She believed they had food enough. Fanny White, sister of the deceased, said she was nine years of age. She remembered her mother, who was dead. Her father was a gentleman's servant. He left home throe weeks before her brother died. After her mother's death, Mrs. Wiggins, the prisoner, came to live with them. Her brother died on a Wednesday. On the evening before Mrs. Wiggins came home and witness went up stairs to go to bed, herbrother was in bed. Mrs. Wiggins went up, and hav ing found that theboy had been crying for water pulled him out of bed and tied him to the bed-post. She made him sal , his prayers, and then she got on tke bed and held him in her arms. She then tied him round with a cord. She tied his hands behind him. She tied him to the long piece of wood which crosses the bed at the bottom. There were .four posts to the bed. She tied his hands and feet to the bar, and she also tied a cord round his breast, his head hanging down. (A model of the bed was produced. From the description given by the witness it appeared that the boy was tied up to the top bar, or cross piece of a four-post bedstead, and that he hung on the cords which bound him, his head hanging down). After she had tied up the boy the prisoner got into bed. 'When witness awoke in the morning little Jamie was still there. She frequently heard him " winnick" during the night. She went down to light the fire in the morning, and when she went up again her brother had been taken down. The prisoner took him up and shook him, and then put him on the ground. Witness could not tell whether the boy was living or dead at that time. The prisoner went out, and the doctor came shortly afterwards. A policeman came and witness went upstairs with him. The child was then dead. The prisoner had before that tied him to the bed-post with only his shift on for making a dirt, and kept him there all night. On that •ccasion, however, he was in a standing position. The pri soner often slapped her brother. Nothing material was elicited by Mr. Poland's exami nation. By the Judge—She saw her brother after he was dead. He had bruises on his face. She thought they were caused by the slaps which the prisoner gave him. Sarah White, a child apparently about six years of age, confirmed the evidence of the last witness. Mr. Edward Dennis Hucon, surgeon, of Richmond-road, Hackney, said—l have attended the deceased child. Un questionably its death resulted from violence. I have made a post mortem examination. I found the stomach perfectly contracted, an I manifestly without food for some time past, although it had been well nourished. The immediate cause of death I believe to have been by an effusion of blood upon the brain. I found marks of ligature round the head, hands, and body. The jaws were firmly closed, only to be opened by great violence. The result of a child being tied to a bed in the way described would be apoplexy. _ - James White, the father of the deceased child was called, and said he left the children in the charge of the prisoner. She behaved very kindly to the children while at home. He frequently sent her money. This was the case for the prosecution. Wo shall give the result of the trial in a later edition. NEW COURT. • (Before the Recorder.) THE ASSAULT ON THE BRIGHTON AND SOUTH •COAST RAILWAY. Mr. Jacob French, watchmaker, surrendered to his bail to answer a charge of assaulting Maria Astell in a carriage on the Brighton and South-Coast Railway. Mr. Robinson appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Sergeant Ballantino, Mr. Giffard, and Mr. Ribton for the defence. The defendant pleaded not guilty. Mr. Robinson, in opening the case, said he appeared on the part of the Brighton and South-Coast Railway Com pany to prosecute the defendant, who was a married man, and a person of great respectability, carrying on business at Cornhill as a watchmaker. The prosecutrix was a ' young lady of great respectability, and it was while an ex gursion train was on its return from Brighton to London that the assault which led to the present indictment was committed. The learned gentleman then Called Mr. W. Astell, who said—l reside at London-road, Brighton. My niece, the prosecutrix, came down to me on the Sunday, 30th of October, by an excursion train. On her returning to London I went to the Brighton terminus, and saw a gentleman who I know now to be the defendant. I asked what time the train would arrive at New •cross, and he then said if the young lady was going there he would see her there safely. He said I need have no fear as he was a respectable man and the father of a family. By Sergeant Ballantine—l am not directing the prosecu tion. I have had nothing to say one way or the other. 1 (Miss Maria Astell said—On Sunday the 30th of October I went to Brighton in the excursion train at six in the evening, on my return to London. I saw Mr. French at the Brighton terminus. I and Mr. French got intcra third class carriage. There were other persons present. After the train started we began to talk about the country and afterwards love, he remarking what a nice place a railway carriage was for young men. He then tried to, kiss me, and put his arm round my waist. He afterwards placed his hands in a very indecent manner on my knees. I complained of his conduct, and said I would mention the treatment I had received when the train stopped. He asked me to forgive him. When the train arrived at Three-bridges I spoke to the guard, and I was put into another carriage. On arriving at New-cress the charge was made against Mr. French. He offered me £lO, £2O, or £3O to compromise the affair. He said he was a respectable merrier] man, and such a charge would greatly injure him. When I got home I told !my aunt, and de cided, in ;order to avoid exposure, not to proceed further in the matter. Cross-examined by Mr. Sergeant Ballantine—l thought that the/gentleman having been locked up it was sufficient punishment. The defendant put his hand on my knee outside my dross. The moment I remonstrated the defen dant apologised for what he had done. I don't recollect his saying the did not intend any insult. There was no light in the carriage. I did not intend to prosecute. I have received a sum of money, and it was not intended to press the charge further. Tho money has been spent. I know a constable named Carpenter. 1 went down into Warwickshire in order not to have anything further to do with the matter. As far as I was concerned I considered it settled. I don't know whether his hand was placed on my knee by accident. I believed at the time he meant to 'insult me. Re-examined by Mr. Robinson—l was persuaded to take the money. Defendant made no remark when he placed his hands on my knee. Mr. Penny, the guard_of the train, said—l saw the young lady on the night in question. She was crying bitterly. She said a gentleman (pointing out Mr. French) had been taking liberties with her. I put the young lady in another compartment, and locked the door of the carriage in which defendant was riding until we arrived at New. cross. Police-constable Smith said—l was on duty atthe New cross-station on Sunday, Oct. 20. The young lady gave Mr. French in custody for an assault in a railway car riage. He replied, " For God's sake, don't do it; it will be the death of my wife and my utter ruin." The young lady said her uncle would be very angry with her if she did not do so. He said, "For God's sake do not say so." He then again said he had done very wrEng. He offered the young lady £2O and £lO to any charity if the charge was withdrawn. George Cookson said—l had charge of the New•cross station on the night in question. The prosecutrix com plained to me of the conduct of Mr. French, and I took them both into my office. Mr. French said he was very sorry. The complainant said, " I gave you no liberty, and you had no right to take liberties with me." Mr. French then said he was very sorry for what he had done. Mr. Sergeant Ballantine then made a very forcible appeal to the jury for the defendant, and said it appeared to him as if the act had been done without any impure feeling, and if the jury should be of that opinion, it would be their duty to acquit the defendant. A long list of witnesses were then called, amongst whom were the following : Mr. William Archer said he had known Mr. French for 25 years, and during the whole of that time his character for morality and probity had been irreproachable, both as a father and husband. He was the last man who he thought would be guilty of any act of indecency. Mr. W. Bartholomew, solicitor, of Gray's-inn, said ho had known the defendant from childhood. His conduct as a father was irreproachable, and morals exemplary. The Rev. H. Niven, clergyman, had known defendant for 18 years. Had never known him utter an immoral word during that time. Mr. James Jones, solicitor, of Doncaster, had known the defendant for 30 years, and considered him quite incapable of doing anything improper. His moral character was irreproachable. Mr. John Poole, architect, of Guildford-street, Russell square, had known the defendant for 20 years, during the whole of which timo he was of the highest respectability. The learned gentleman was proceeding to call a number of other witnesses, when The Recorder said he did not think it was necessary to proceed further with witnesses as to character, as it was clear the defendant was a person of the highest respecta bility. Mr. Ribton said, under such circumstances, ho should not trouble the jury further. The Recorder then summed up the evidence, and after a short deliberation the jury returned a verdict of guilty of a common assault, but strongly recommended him to mercy. Mr. Robinson, on the part of the prosecution, joined in the recommendation. , The Recorder said before he passed sentence he wished to consi ler the subject. The defendant might be admitted to bail to appear to-morrow morning to receive sentence. CHARGE AGAINST MR. lIENDERSON FOR MISDEMEANOUR. An indictment was preferred against Mr. Henderson, a surgeon, charging him with dissuading Miss Astsll from giving evidence in the case. Miss Astell was then called, and said she saw Mr. Hen derson respecting the charge against Mr. French on the morning after it occurred. He referred to the assault, and asked what sort of an offence it was, and I told him. [The witness here burst into, tears, and was incapable for some minutes of further exariiihation.] The defendant, Hender son, offered me £8 not to appear. He said it was all settled. and I need not trouble myself further. I did not attend. Mr. Henderson remained about half an hour. A paper was served upon me. I gave it to Mr. Henderson. He did not return it. I never saw it again. I can't say whether the paper produced is the same one. Carpenter brought it. Mr. Henderson called again on the Tuesday. I told him about the paper, and he said I was to go away ; and I think he said the summons was a mere nothing. I again saw him, when he said he thought it would be better for me not to go away. By Mr. Giffard—He asked me if it was a serious affair' I said "No," and ho then gave me the £B, which I re ceived as compensation. The Recorder stopped the case, and said the charge could not be supported, and that being so,. they would re turn a verdict of not guilty. The jury did as the learned Recorder directed, and Mr. Henderson left the Court. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. PROGRAMME OF CROYDON STEEPLECIIASES. FRIDAY, DEC. 2.

A letter from Pesth, dated Nov. 23, says :—A most extraordinory event has taken place in this country; the Greek Bishop of Munkacs has myste riously disappeared, and no one knows what has be ' come oflhim. As, however, in spite of his religions creed, he was one of the most devoted of Hunga rian patriots, and as such was obnoxious to the Viennese Government, it is confidently believed that he has been whisked away to some Austrian dungeon. This belief is confirmed by the fact that he was seen by some of his flock he was in the car riage of the Roman Catholic Bishop of Szithmar —a person of the name of Haas—who is the only one of the Hungarian episcopacy, whether Greek or Catholic, devoted to Austria, and who is conse quently in very bad repute among all classes of his countrymen. The greatest concern is felt through out Hungary with respect to the missing prelate ; and his arrest is regarded as a new outrage on the part of Austria to the nation at large. We have been very nearly having the streets of this city stai ne d w i th b lood. The 'family and ad mirers of the great dramatic writer Kisfauldy, who has been appropriately designated the " Hungarian Scribe." lately resolved to have his remains removed from the old cemetery to the new one, in order to deposit them in a tomb befitting his great renown. Sunday last was fixed for the removal ; and as on that day the students and the workmen are unoc cupied a large . 'crowdof both assembled at the ceme tery to witness the ceremony. Desire to show re • spect to the distinguished deceased was, of course, the motive of many in going there; but simple cu riosity alone influenced the majority. Nevertheless, Count Haller, the sapient adlatus, thought fit to regard the assemblage as a political demonstration dangerous to the Government; and so he issued a flaming order that the removal of the remains should not take place, and to enforce the order he not only marched a large force to the cemetery, but actually kept all the rest of the numerous garrison under arms in the barracks. The population of Pesth could scarcely believe their ears when they heard of this silly conduct, and their surprise became changed into indignation on seeing the soldiers disperse, with great brutality, the students, and working men. Fortunately, however, though irritated, the people were able to control themselves ; and even the work men and students bore the indignity put upon them with patience not be expected. And so the affair passed off without strife and without bloodshed; but it will neither be forgotten nor forgiven. Among the many evils which Austrian misgo vernment has brought on this country is the total deprivation of silver coin, a deprivation which causes incalculable inconvenience to all classes of the community. The thing, Heaven knows, is no laughing matter, but it produced a comical incident a few evenings ago. Bosco, son of the celebrated conjuror, who follows his father's calling, was giv ing a performance, and for one of his tricks re quired four pieces of silver. As usual in such cases he requested the spectators, who were very nume rous, and amongst whom were some of the princi pal inhabitants of the city, to lend him the coins— but though everybody, male and female, groped in pockets and examined purses, only three silver coins could be found ! The incident, though calculated to make an economist groan, caused Bosco's visitors and Bosco himself to shout with laughter. Within the last two or three months the appear ance of Pesth has undergone a remarkable change. The picturesque national costume which had been universally laid aside is 113 W to be seen everywhere —high, low, male, and female figure .in it. This, of course, is a proof of how profound and how uni versal is the national sentiment which is now in fluencing the Magyars. The women, in particular, in sacrificing majestic crinoline for the half-mascu line costume of their nation, display patriotism which is really heroic. _ _ An Austrian Government has for months past been promising Hungary reforms, and it has just, with a tremendous flourish of trumpets, decided on one. And what do you think this one is ? Why, nothing more than that llungarian Jews may em ploy Christian servants ! It is really a pity that the Austrian mountain should have taken the trouble to put itself into labour to bring forth such a ridiculous mouse. If it thinks that such puny measures can have any effect, even the slightest, in removing the discontent which prevails amongst all classes and all creeds, amongst Gentiles as well as Jews, it is grievously mistaken. HEALTH OF LONDON DURING THE WEEK. (From the Report of the Registrar-General.) - , The deaths in London continued to increase in the week that ended last Saturday. The numbers registered in the two previous weeks were succes sively 1,051, and 1,233; last week the number was 1,307. In the ten years 1849-58 the average num ber of deaths was 1,210 ; but as the deaths con tained in the present return occurred in a popula tion which has increased, they should be compared with the average raised in proportion to the increase —namely, with 1,331. The comparison shows that the deaths in last week were below the calculated number, but that the difference is not of important amount. The births of last week exceeded the deaths in the same period by 478. The diseases which predominate as the year draws to a close continue to increase. The deaths referred to affections of the organs of respiration rose in the last three weeks as follows :-179, 233, 314. Those caused by plithisis or consumption are not included in these numbers ; they were 132, 157, and 165. Bronchitis was fatal in the same period in the fol lowing numbers of cases, 102, 138, and 198 ; pneu monia GO, 64, and 73; whooping-cough 14, 20, 30. Of the 198 deaths from bronchitis last week 21 oc curred to infants; 19 occurred at one year of age and under ten ; 10 in the period of life 20-40 years, 46 in the period 40.60 years, 85 at the age 60-80, and 17 at 80 years and upwards. Small-pox was fatal last week in 30 cases, six of which occurred in the Small-pox Hospital. Al though that institution is situated in the north dis tricts, the east, in which 10 deaths from this disease were registered, returned more than any group of districts. 86 deaths were ascribed to scarlatina, 13 to diphtheria. The former oppears to prevail much in the north parts of London ; it was fatal in five cases in Kentish-town, in five in Islington east. Six deaths are also referred to in Bethnal-green, and four in Mile-end Old Town. Nine infants died by suffocation, two by murder or - manslaughter. A child suffering from inflamma tion of the lungs was treated with a narcotic poison by an unqualified practitioner; a man died from destitution ; another from exposure to cold. Of bricklayers 2 died in the week, of bricklayers' wives 1, of bricklayers' children 4 ; of carpenters 13 died in the week, of carpenters' wives 5, of car penters' children 18 ; of masons one died, of masons' children 4 ; of painters 8 died, of painters' wives 2, of painters' children 12 ; of plasterers' 2 died, of plasterers' wives 1, of plasterers' children 2. Last week the births of 904 boys and 881 girls -1,785 children—were registered in London. In the 10 corresponding weeks of the years 1849-58 the average number was 1,548. _ _ Acihe Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean height of the barometer in the week was 29.797 in. The readings fell from 30.11 in. on Sunday to 29.51 in. on Saturday, being respectively the highest and lowest in the week. The mean temperature of the air in the week was 41.1 deg., which is 0.3 deg. be low the average of the same week in 43 years, as determined by Mr. Glaisher. The thermometer in tjle shade fell to its lowest point, 28 8 deg., on Tues day, and rose to its highest, 53 deg., on Wednes day and Saturday. The range of temperature in the week was therefore 24.2 deg. The mean daily range was 16.3 deg. The difference between the mean dew-point temperature and air temperature was only 1.3 deg. The mean degree of humidity of the air was so high as 95; on Tuesday and Wed nesday the humidity reached the point 100, which is equivalent to complete saturation. Dense fog ob scured the sky on the mornings of those days, when the temperature of the water of the Thames was 43 deg., and that of the air, which was calm, fell below the freezing point of water. On Sunday the thermometer on the grass fell to 18.2 deg. The wind blew almoit always from a south-easterly point. Rain fell to the amount of 0.08 in. A supplement to the London and China Telegraph affords some valuable details respecting the progress of British trade with China during the last ten years. The value of the exports to China in 1849 was £1,537,100, and in 1858, £2,875,447. In the value of the imports from China considerable fluctuations are shown from year to year. FATAL COLLISION ON THE FIRTH OF CLYDE.— GLAsaow, Tuesday. About 12 o'clock this morning, while the steamer Eagle was off the Arran shore, on her passage from Glasgow to Londonderry, she came into col lision with the waterlogged timber-laden ship Pladda. She was struck heavily abaft the funnel, and sunk in a quarter of an hour. About 20 passengers and the second mate are believed to be drowned. Thirty-four persons, including the captain and crew, were saved by the Pladda and a tug. The steamer had also 200 sheep on board, which were drowned. Intelligence has been received of the total loss of the ship John and Lucy, Captain O'Donnell, while on her voyage from Liverpool to the Cape of Good Hope with Government emigrants. The crew and passengers were saved; the latter had reached Pernambuco, and would be forwarded to their destination. The John and Lucy was owned by James Baines and Co., of Liverpool, and regis tered 1,235 tons. " What," asks a mediaeval moralist, "is finer than silver?—Gold. And what is finer than gold?—Tl e ruby.

Hurst and Blaekett. This work is one out of the common in its style and tenour. The difference betweu it and the ordi nary run of novels, does not consist so much in the events as in the way they are described, and there is great power displayed in the sketching of some of the prominent characters. Alice Rope, the heroine, is a very interesting study for the reader, aria iu her isolated life, in a gloomy o:d mansion, shis presents a mournful picture of a young maiden's existence, at that 'period, which is generally the brightest and gayest. Her uncle Rupert is a strange man, who, notwithstanding his peculiarities, is evi dently well-meaning, and possessed of deep feeling, but under adverse circumstances his better self had been obscured. Alice, on taking up her abode with him, might have effected much had it not been &h. the inopportune arrival of her cousin Warren, who was one of those wretched individuals who cast a blight over every one and everything the came in contact with. To complete the unhappy course of events that militated against the peace and pro sperity of Hirst Hall. Warren, in his way, became deeply attached to Alice, and on perceiving her re pugnance to him the sentiment changed to deadly hatred, which soon sought out the means of working an awful revenge. One bright episode in Alice's sombre life was her visit to Sumnor Hall, the home of her school friend, Helen Falkland. The scenes here described are sketched in a brilliant and graceful manner, and form a striking and pleas ing contrast to the dull monotony of Hirst Hall. Arthur Leigh is one of the most skilfully pour tiayed personages met with in the narrative. His fitful course of action, his impassioned energy, con trasting with his haughty reserve, and his apparent genuineness, followed by his false and hollow pro mises, are the apt illustration and the vivid record of the way of some of the world's meteor stars. Alice, iu spite of the bitter suffering which his unworthy conduct entailed upon her, met with a merciful re lease when their engagement was severed. She had the sense and the courage to do so herself, and this most consulted her own dignity, while she acted in the best way for the ultimate preservation of her peace. It was au additional mortification to her to find that she had been supplanted in Arthur's momentary fancy by another of her early friends, Lillian Graham. Lillian was extremely lovely and eminently fascinating, and Arthur's:ar tist eye was caught by her beauty, while his sensi tive taste was attracted by her unrivalled grace. She appeared at Sumnor Hall at the time when he had begun to question the propriety of his engage ment with Alice, to whom ho was in reality sin cerely attached, as far his volatile nature would permit. It was an attachment that finally asserted itself when too late to cause aught but-misery. Years after, when he had long been married to Lil lian, it was the cause of their fatal quarrel, and her early death. Alice who had long outlived her affection for one so unworthy of respect as Arthur, was near to console the last hours of her early friend, and to point to the erring husband and wife the way to attain a more excellent and enduring peace than the trifling vanities to which they had so long sacrificed themselves, could ever bestow. Alice had many severe trials to undergo after sho had parted with her gay friends at Sumnor, the direful schemes of Warren encompassed her, and she had a narrow escape from a most fearful fate. In an evil hour. Harry, the young brother of Alice, returned from college in debt and disgrace ; the stern and inflexible Rupert refused to see him or render any assistance. Alice was nearly distracted and Warren, pretending friendship, came to the rescue, a severe illness kept Alice a prisoner some time, and when she again sought her brother his ruin had been effected. Led on from step to step he passed from gambling to forging a cheque on the firm of his uncle in which Warren was a partner. This was the victory which that crafty man had fought for, and he soon enforced a consent to their union from the wretched sister, as the only means to preserve the brother from infamy. Hap pily, the sacrifice was not made, and the despicable villain was stayed in his sinful course by a power against which ho could not contend. A sudden death removed the unhappy Harry from the life he had so misused, but sad as the event was, it came more as a summons of mercy, than a message of terror. His sister, while she wept over the account sent her of his last moments by the friend who was alone with him in the solitary hut far away in the back woods of America, acknowledged that he had been taken away from more evil to come. None of the terrors he had undergone could have equalled the pang of remorse that would henceforth have been his doom had he lived to feel that his selfish course of crime had consigned his sister a living death. These scenes of vital import in the chapters of life's his tory are chronicled in a manner consonant with the subject, and the author in descanting on some of those terrible questions that 'must be decided, and some of those awful hours that must be passed through in such trials, rises to the height that is due. The chief excitement of the story is over when the death of Harry has renewed the power of the enemy, and the concluding passages of the story are of a simpler style. Alice was, after a long period, united to Geerge Beresford, who had bc•en her uncle's physician, and who possessed qualities of sterling excellence which far out weighed more brillant endowments and more shining abilities. Alice had suffered enough from the vascillations of Arthur Leigh, the careless disposition of her brother, and, above all, she had seen so much evidence of the want of principle - in Warren that she, of all others, could appreciate and prize the appearance of conscientious actions and upright feelings. Beresford had on many mo mentous occasions been of signal service to her, but the machinations of Warren had interfered to de teriorate the influence for good which the honest man might have exercised over Harry. " The Way of the World" possesses many merits in its various personages, exciting events, and striking style to attract and interest its readers. There are minor individuals who are ably delineated, as Miss Ross, May Leslie, and Mrs. Mountain and her daughters. The designs of these notable ladies form an amusing portion of the earlier part of the story, and Rupert did well to escape their danger ous plans for his welfare. There can be no doubt that the great ability manifested in this work will ensure it a considerable degree of attention, and those who do not like the peculiar style of the events so much as a lighter class of fiction, will acknow ledge its efficiency of excution and vigorous and animated sketches of social life, and divers charac ters. 71115 DAY'S MARKETS. The arrivals of English wheat fresh up to-day were limited ; but there were several of Monday's unsold sant • pies on offer. The attendance of millers was very mode rate, and the demand for all kinds of wheat of home pro duce ruled heavy, at Monday's decline in value. In foreign wheat, the show of which was good, very little business was passing on former terms. Floating cargoes a dull inquiry. We had a fair inquiry for barley at full currencies. There was a steady, though not to say active, inquiry for malt, at late quotations. Oats wore in fair request, at previous rates. Beans sold heavily, but peas were firm in price. Flour moved off slowly, on former terms. ARRIVALS THIS WEEK Wheat. Barley Malt. Oats Flour. English 6lO 1 1,220 I ; 346 1,390 Irish - Fereig,n .. 50 , 3,790 40 sks bls. BOROUG II HOP.

The trade generally is steady, as follows Beef, from 2s 10d to 419.6 d ; mutton, 3s 2d to 4$ 6d ; lamb, Os Od to Os Od ; -veal, 3s 8d to 4s 81; and pork, 3a Id to 5s 2d per 81b., by the carcase. An account was given in April last of a woman, named Nicocles, of Marseilles, having been found murdered in her own house, and of the drawers and closets having been broken open, and all the articles of value which they contained stolen. The woman had received two mortal stabs, one from a stiletto in the side, and the other from a sword in the back. Two Greek sailors (the woman her self was Greek) having been seen near the house just before the crime must have been committed, and having also been seen hurrying away from it shortly after, were suspected, but they could not be found. A few days after, how ever, a jeweller informed the police that a Greek sailor whom he knew, of the name of Minasganiskis, had offered to him for sale a ring with stones of dif ferent colours ; also part of a chain and part of a gold chatelaine, and that he had detained them from the belief that they might he part of the booty taken from the house of the murdered woman. The articles were recog nised as having belonged to the woman, and accordingly the Greek was arrested. He pretended that it was a ship - - mate of his, named Mikalopoulos, who had murdered the woman, and given him the things to induce him not to tell. Not only, however, was this story improbable, but i 4 short sword belonging to him (Minasganikis), which was similar to that with which the woman appeared to have been stabbed, was found in his lodgings. Shortly after Mikalopoulos was arrested, and in his possession were found fragments of 'a chain and of a chatelaine, which were evidently part of those offered to the jeweller; likewise a ring, which was recognised as the woman's pro perty, was found on him. In addition to these facts per sons who had seen the two Greeks enter and leave the woman's said that the two persons exactly resembled them. Three days back the men were brought to trial for the mur der before the Court of Assizes of Marseilles, and b oing con victed with extenuating circumstances, were senftenced hard labour for life.
