Grinding and distillihg sorts were in steady request, and the quotations ruled firm. Fine old malt was in demand, at extreme rates. Other kinds moved of steadily, at full prices. The supply of oats was moderate, and the inquiry for them ruled inactive, on former terms. Mazagan and egyptian beans sold heavily, at barely late rates; but tacit and harrow descriptions fairly sup ported previous quotations. Peas were without change as to value, but the demand for all qualities was far from active. In most kinds of flour, a moderate business was trans acted, and the quotations were steadily maintained. 1 3 31 1 4 Ipm I irLm CURRENCY PER IMPERJAL MEANURB.

Willson's, draper, Ryder's-court, Leicester-square. Mr. Wilson said the prisoner's daughter had been liv ing with him as servant, but latterly sleeping at home. On Saturday morning last the prisoner called upon him and said her daughter was very ill, confined to her bed, and would not be able to come. At the same time she asked to be allowed to do the work, and this being agreed to, the pri soner came about 4 o'clock in the afternoon, but after being in one of the bedrooms only two or three minutes, she quietly left the house. Having some suspicion of the prisoner in consequence of her manners he followed her and watched her about to enter a house in King-street, when he asked her what she had in the bundle under her arm. She re plied, " Only some washing ;" but on its being examined a mantle, worth about £5, and some towels, which had been taken from a cupboard in the bedroom, were found, and on her person a silk handkerchief, all his (Mr. Wilson's) pro perty. He then gave the prisoner in charge ; and, on going back to his house, found that the prisoner had packed up another parcel ready for removal on her return to his house. 61S 83 i -id Mr. Tyrwhitt said it was one of those disgraceful rob beries that he would not dispose of in that court, and after hearing the constable (Halford, 168 C), committed the pri soner for trial. 711 i id pr if 1 p i 12 13r 74i 4 28; 2s 551 6} [ll 113 91 93 111 113 110 112 128 130 30 113 L 45 .17 119 [ll 113 01 106 .08 110 98 100 98 100 88 90 89 91 101 103 75 77 169 172 103 105 L3B 140 Itt 140 118.,118 155 16 , 81. 135 7 84 az 99 101 2f 2; 123 125 41 , , E 7 0 a IP.) 1:49 141 103 105 94 PO [O9 111 108 110 1 lipm 92 91 100 102 98 100 li.

There was rather a large supply of foreign stock on sale in to-day's market, the time of year considered, and its general quality was tolerably good. Sales, however, pro gressed slowly, at barely late rates. The arrival of beasts fresh up from our own grazing disL tricts was seasonably extensive as to number, but rather deficient in quality. Prime breeds commanded a steady sale, at prices quite equal to Monday last, the top figure being 4s 8d per Bibs; otherwise, the beef trade was in a sluggish state, at Thursday's decline in the quotations of 2d per 81bs, and a clearance was not effected: From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton shire we received 3,000 short horns, &c., from other parts of England 8,100 various breeds, and, from Ireland, 1,000 oxen and heifers. There were no fresh beasts in the mar ket from Scotland. We were tolerably well, but not to say heavily, supplied with most breeds of sheep, which came to hand in fair con dition. Generally speaking, the mutton trade was rather active, and the currencies realised on this day se'nnight were freely supported. Downs and the best half-breds changed hands at from 5s Gd to 5s 8d per 81bs. Calves, the supply of which was moderate, moved off slowly, at Thursday's quotations—viz., from 3s 10d to 5s per 81bs. The bulk of the supply was composed of foreigners in good condition. Prime small pigs commanded a steady sale, at very full prices. Large hogs were firm, with a moderate demand.

EXTRAORDINARY CHARGE OF FELONY.—Charles Stevenson, described as a beer-house keeper, was placed at the bar, charged with stealing a piece of beef, value ss. George Symonds, the son of the proprietor of a butcher's shop, in the Fulham-road, said, that the prisoner came there on Saturday night, and bought a piece of beef, in pay ment for which he held a sovereign in his hand, but upon witness turning his ba k prisoner walked out of the shop without paying for the beef. Witness followed and gave him in charge. Prisoner then struck him twice on the head with an umbrella. Mr. Lewis, jun., appeared for the prisoner, and cross examined the witness, who said—Prisoner dealt with us for a long time, but not within the last six months. lie has ran up bills at our shop, and always paid them. He does not owe us anything that I aui aware of. Our clerk was present. Prisoner never asked credit by saying, " I shan't pay for this now." My father told me he was going to pay ready money for the beef. I did not hear him say to the clerk, "My wife owes for a leg of mutton, and I will pay for both the things together," Prisoner had a sovereign in his hand. He threatened to take procedings against me when I gave him in charge. Thomas Symonds, father of the last witness, said that he went into the shop, hearing an altercation tbere, and saw the prisoner, who said he waated the piece of beef. Prose cutor refused to give him credit, and prisoner said he did not want trust, and produced a sovereign to pay for the beef. After that ho would neither give him back the beef or the money. Cross-examined by Mr. Lewis—lf I could have got the money for the beef after prisoner had taken it there would have ,been an end of the matter, and I should not have brought him here. The prisoner was drunk—very. If he had been sober I probably should have trusted him with the meat, but as he was drunk I of course would not. Police-constable Slater, 402 B, proved that prisoner was much intoxicated George Symonds was recalled by Mr. Lewis, and said he followed the prisoner to where he left the meat; he did it without any disguise. Two or three policemen were called to prove that the prisoner was very violent at the police-station, and threat ened the inspector, Mr. Lewis addressed the magistrate for his client, and said there was no pretext for charging him with a felony. He was well known at the shop, had always paid his way, and, according to prosecutor's own account, would have had credit given him this time had he been sober. He had walked away with the meat without the least disguise, and having honestly paid his for mer bills, probably, in his intoxication, con sidered himself entitled to credit. His threats and violence at the station were the result of considering himself un justly given into custody. His intoxication was the best and only excuse for that. If he had threatened he had now no idea of doing any one any harm. He was discharged from the imputation of felony, but fined 10s., or seven days, for the assault on the butcher's son, and 40s. each for assaults on two constables, or 14 days. THAMES. CONVICTION OP A CIGAR MANUFACTURER FOR SMUG GLINGTOBACCO.—Henry Cohen, a Jew,was brought before Mr. Selfe, charged with smuggling 71bs. of foreign manu factured tobacco and flb. of cigars. Robert John Sharpe, an examining officer of Customs, stated that on the arrival of the steamship Sarah from Dort yesterday (Sunday) at the Dublin wharf, the prisoner, who was a passenger, asked him to search his luggage. He did so, and asked him what cigars and tobacco he had about him, to which he replied only a few ounces, and exhibited some tobacco and cigars insignificant in quantity. He asked the prisoner if he had any more, and he said. "No, no more." He searched the prisoner's coat and clothes, and found in the pockets and in the lining of the various gar ments 7lbs. of Cavendish tobacco, and three quarters of a pound of cigars, which he seized. The prisoner —I hope you will be merciful to me, your worship. Mr. Selfe—Why should I do so. The prisoner —Because I did not bring the cigars and tobacco for the sake of smuggling. Mr. Selfe—You have smuggled the tobacco and cigars. They were found in your clothes very artfully concealed What are you ? The prisoner —A traveller. Mr. Sharpe—He is a ci trade. gar manufacturer. He: is in the Mr. Selfe—What is the value and duty on the cigars and tobacco. Mr. Sharp—X4 ls., r. The Prisoner--Put alight fine on me, your worship. I had some in my coat pocket and gave them to him. Mr. Sharpe—That was after I made the search. Mr. Selfe—l am afraid you are an old smuggler, Mr. Cohen. The prisoner--I am not indeed , be merciful, pray do. Mr. Selfe—You are fined £lO. The penalty was paid. Es '6l 5 6 WOOL.

This was an action to recover 395., the value of a certain breeding cage, which had been raffled at defendant's house, the Three Tons, in Smithfield. Plaintiff said that he put up a breeding cage, and it was won by a thrower. Plaintiff told defendant that he would call with the winner for the cage, but defendant parted with it to another person. Cross-examined—l have had the cage 12 months, during which time I have raffled it twice. I did not tell the de fendant that the winner was to have it upon payment of 2s. 6d. I have witnesses to prove that I said I would call for the cage accompazied by the winner. Mr. Beard—This breeding cage is a kind of annuity to the plaintiff, who has the good luck to win or get it back whenever it is raffled. The short facts of the case are these. My client is a very respectable licensed victualler, and the breeding cage was raffled for at his house. It was won by a person to whom plaintiff said it was to be delivered upon payment of 2s. 6d. The defendant delivered it to the winner when it was called for. Now, in this case it could not be said that there was wrongful intention, because directly the owner put up an article for raffling, and it was won by another person, the property had passed from the owner. Here the plaintiff himself had sworn that a third person had won the breeding cage, and that being so, how could he now claim an ownership in it ? His Honour—You need not trouble yourself any further, Mr. Beard, as I am quite with you. Upon the plaintiff's own showing he had lost all property in the cage, and I shall find for defendant with costs. Mr. Perry (from Mr. Buchanan's), who has considerable experience, was to have appeared for the defendant, as Mr. Kerr has made a rule to hear attorneys' clerks under cer • Min restrictions, but the learned deputy judge would not hear Mr. Perry, and Mr. Beard was instructed. A COUNTRY CONCERT IN AMERICA. Being a slave, Tom never was taken into a Free State; for the same reason his master refused ad vantageous offers from European managers. The highest points North in which his concerts were given, were Baltimore and the upper Virginia towns. 1 heard him some time in 1860. He re mained a week or two in the town, playing every night. The concerts were unique enough. They were given in a great barn of a room, gaudy with hot soot, stained frescoes, chandeliers, and walls splotched with gilt. The audience was large always ; such as a provincial town affords. Not the purest bench of musical criticism before which to bring poor Tom. Beaux and belles, siftings of old country families, whose grandfathers trapped and traded and married with the Indians—the savage thickening of whose blood told itself in high cheek-bones, flashing jewellery, champagne bibbing, a comprehension of the tom-tom music of schot tisches and polkas ; money-made men and their wives, cooped up by respectability ; taking concerts when they were given in town, taking the white sulphur or cape may in summer, tak ing beef for dinner, taking the pork trade in winter—toute la vie en programme; the debris of a town, the roughs, the boys, school children. The stage was broad, planked, with a drop-curtain behind,—subject, the Doge marrying the sea, I believe; in front, a piano and chair. Pre s( ntly, Mr. Oliver, a well-natured looking man (one thought of that), cams forward, leading and coaxing along a little black boy dressed in white linen, a little black boy somewhat fat and stubborn in build. Tom was not in a good humour that night ; the evening before, he had refused to playeltogether, so his maser perspired anxiously before he could got him placed in rule before the audience, and re peat his own little speech, which sounded like a Georgia after dinner gossip. The boy's head, as I said, rested on his back, his mouth wide open con stantly ; his great blubber lips and shining teeth, therefore, were all you saw when he faced you. He required to be petted and bought, like any other weak-minded child. The cencert was a mixture of music, whining, coaxing, and promised candy and cake. He seated himself at last before the piano, a full half yard distant, stretching out his arms full length, like an ape clawing for food ; his feet when not on the pedals twisting incessantly, he answering some joke of his master's with a loud " Yha, yha!" Nothing indexes the brain like the laugh; this was idiotic. 'Now, Tom, boy, some thing we like from Verdi."—Dickens's All the Year Round. SHIPPING---THIS DAY.

SABBATARIAN ASSERTION. —At Edinburgh the other day, a meeting was held by numerous enemies of re ligious liberty. The Lord Provost, according to the Time; presided over them, and the assembly of bigots comprised and other sects the leading members of the Presbyitrekri ' desirous of abridg including adherents of the F ing the freedom of others. was to oppose a petition sign ri:hebeeyoh.blj4e,coto 0 ° o f f t h the ese working classes, and addressed to theldrodasrodfenthse sThraelalsubreyo,pa.esnkionng that the Edinburgh Botanical o S a bbatarians was harangued Sunday. This concourse, • Thomson, and Begz, and by by Doctors Muir, some sanctimoniouGs:aEtniFserteuspsiindgbareilgier:.t a T n h d ey a h l the a a r d m th folly at t he to vote resolutions sougPlit to be opened on the Lord's gardens should Day, andbesetting forth that such a proposal was to t h e Divine commandment, b u t t o the opposed n ot only law and usages of Scotland, and the convictions and t h e great majority of the Scotti s h people ; and dthgs of at ge tting aside the authority of the Sabbath as a Divine institution would remove the only efficient barrier whic h protects the working man from uninterrupted labour." The only truth which the foregoing statement con tains, if it contains any, is the assertion that a tyran nical Scotch majority is desirous of shutting the minority of Scotchmen out of the Edinburgh Botanical Gardens on a Sunday. We trust, however, that not even this is true, and that the population of Scotland does not chiefly consist of fools no better than real thistle-eating asses. The last of the above (incited assertions is one of such a nature that those who concured in it would agree in saying any thing, regardles of veracity. Why, Kew Gardens have long been open to the English public on a Sunday. Does the English workman, then, lead a life of uninterrupted lsbour ? Perhaps the Lord Provost of Edinburgh, and the gentlemen whose names we had rather not repeat, and the stupid unscrupulous zealots who constituted their audience, would not hesitate to say that he does.—Punch.

This morning Catherine Wilson, who was sentenced to death by Mr. Justice Byles, at the last sessions of the Central Criminal Court, for the murder of Maria Soatnes, was executed in front of Newgate. Fourteen years have elapsed since a woman was executed in Middlesex, and, as might have been anticipated, a vast crowd of persons assembled to-day. From Smithfield to Ludgate-hill there was a dense mass of human beings, and at all the windows in the Old Bailey from which a view of the scaffold could be obtained were well dressed people, many of whom had provided themselves with opera glasses, which were levelled at the miserablewoman when she came forth from the prison. The crowd consisted of the usual class of persons who are to be seen on such occasions. They began to assemble yes terday evening, but as it rained incessantly until past mid night, they took up their position in the courts with which the neighbourhood abounds, and in any other place in which they could procure shelter from the storm. ,When the morning began to clear up they came out of their retreats and took up their positions by the gallows. Meanwhile preparations were being made within the waris of the prison for the execution of the criminal. Shor cly after seven :;clock the two sheriffs, Alderman Lawn- Awe and Mr. Hugh Jones, who were accompanied by Mr- De puty Farrar and Mr. Mackrell, the Under-Sheriffs, arrived. and ascertained that everything that could be done had been done by the authorities of the prison. At a quarter before eight o'clock a procession, consisting of the sheriffs, under-sheriffs, the Rev. John Davis, the Ordinary of New gate, Mr. Jonas, the governor. and Mr. Gibson, the .pur.. geon, went to the cell of the convict, and then brought her to the room in which the pinioning was to be p er ,. formed. There she was met by Calcraft, who commenced the operation of strapping her arms. While this was b e i ng done she sat on a form and was slightly, but very slightly agitated. The female warder who accompanied her ask e d her whether she could do anything more for her, and /r 4v .. ing been told she could not, she kissed her and left. Mr. Jonas, the governor, then asked her whether she would have some brandy, but she declined, He held a glass of water to her lips, and she drank a little, after which h e said to her, " The last moment has arrived, do you wiah to say anything ?" She replied feebly, " No, I am in. nocent." She then rose from her seat, and fol lowed with unfaltering step the Ordinary, who, as the procession moved across the yard, read the burial service of the Church of England. From the pri son she ascended the steps leading to the gallows, without betraying any emotion. The white cap was drawn over her eyes, the rope was put round her neck, her legs were tied, and the bolt having been withdrawn, she fell heavily, and died apparently without a struggle. There was very little groaning or noise on the part of the mob. Only one person has visited the convict since her trial., This was a Mrs. Williams, who resides in Loughborough road, Brixton, and who was a neighbour of Mrs. Wilson when she resided at Boston. The interview lasted only about ten minutes, and it was very evident that the con vict had no desire to prolong it. On Saturday last two women called and desired to see her, but on their names being taken in she said she had no desire to see them. The convict attenled the ordinary chapel services yester day. She has been respectful in her conduct, and attentive to the religious instruction which has been afforded to her, but she has shown no further sign of contrition. Nothing has been said by her which can be construed into an ac knowledgment of her guilt; indeed her last words were declaration of her innocence. This morning, at four o'clock, a special messenger arrived at the Governor's house from the Post Office, with a letter addressed to Catherine Wilson. The Governor at once opened it,and found it to contain two tracts on religious sub jects—a species of literature which has been very freely offered to her by well-meaning people out of doors. The body, after hanging an hour, was cut down, and buried within the precincts of the gaol. Amongst the minor incidents connected with the proceed. ings may be mentioned the fact that yesterday a clergyman called upon the governor, and requested to see the convict in order that he might afford her spiritual consolation. The governor introduced the rev.gentleman to the ordinary, who did not seem disposed to allow his spiritual duties to be interfered with. After some conversation, the rev. gen. tleman admitted that his main object in wishing to see tho prisoner was to obtain some information on which to write an article for a periodical with which he was connected, and upon this admission his services were declined. The arrangements were made this morning by the Sheriffs, and by Messrs. Farrar and Mackrell, the Under- Sheriffs. They had a most painful duty to discharge, but nothing was wanting to invest the proceedings with proper solemnity. GREA7 CONFLAGRA7ION- A 7 KILBURN For several hours on Sunday night and this (Monday) morning the inhabitants of the usually quiet district of Kilburn were kept iu a state of great excitement in conse quence of the outbreak of a serious fire, which has been attended with considerable destruction of property. The premises in which the disaster commenced belonged to Mr. L. Day, a beer-shop and refreshment house-keeper, situate in the Canterbury-road, in the before-named thoroughfare. This building had a frontage of between 50 and 60 feet, most expensively fitted up, and was adjoined on one side by the premises belonging to Mr. Richard Richards, and on the other with the private residence of Mr. M. Feltham. When the discovery was made the flames had obtained such a strong hold of Mr. Day's premises, and had travelled with such amazing rapidity that it was impossible to tellies what part of the building, or from what cause the fire com menced. Every attempt was at once made to prevent the names from reaching the surrounding houses by those living on the spot, and at the same time messengers were despatched in sundry directions for the assistance of the Royal Society's escapes, and the engines. In the course of a few minutes the escapes attended, as well as the engine of the parish and London Brigade, including one of the powerful land steamers, by Shand and Mason, the whole being under the command of Mr. Staple, the chief officer of the C district of the London Fire Establishment. Upon the arrival of this force the engines, being well sup. plied with water, were got to work in an admirable manner. Copious streams of water were thrown into the burning ma ss , but the fire having previously, commenced attacking the front house of Mr. Richards, and also his workshops, strong fears were apprehended for the entire clump of houses standing near. An attempt was therefore made to remove the furniture and other effects belonging to Mr. Feltham, which was done with great difficulty, and in such a hurried manner, that it is hardly necessary to state much damage was done to the goods by breakage and water. Ihe firemen, however, never for a moment relaxed in their exertions to get the conflagration subdued, but the flames continued to extend for a considerable period, and eventually, owing to the indomitable perseverance of the brigade, they had the satisfaction of seeing the fire begin ning to succumb and palpably diminish, beneath the great weight of water thrown upon the same, and in a short time afterwards the fire was perfectly annihilated. The damage done is very considerable, and is thus offi cially returned by Captain Shaw to the various fire offices forming the London brigade : "Canterbury-road, Kilburn, Mr. J. Day, beershop keeper, &o.—House of 55 feet frontage and the contents about two-thirds destroyed. Insurance unknown at pre sent. "Ditto, next door, Mr. Richard Richards—Roof of front house burnt off, and part of roof of workshops destroyed ; the rest of the building and the contents damaged by fire, water, &c. It is not known whether this sufferer was insured. "Ditto, Mr. M. Feltham (private)—Contents and the building damaged by breakage and water, consequent upon hasty removal of the furniture, &c." The police mustered in strong force, and were of great assistance to the firemen in keeping a large crowd out of danger.

THE ADVENT OF WINTER.—SHIELDS, Saturday Night.—Last Monday Admiral Fitzroy sent a storm signal down to the seamen of the Tyne to " look out for squalls,". and it had not been up many hours before squalls did break over the coast with considerable violence. We had storm signals hoisted again last night, and this warning had not been up above a couple of hours before another violent storm of wind broke upon the coast from the south-west, accompanied by a heavy shower of sleet and rain ; and to night another warning has been hoisted, that a dangerous wind may be expected from the southward, and the weather looks threatening, though the night is starlight and frosty. There is still corn out in the hill districts and the more cold and exposed parts of the country. SERIOUS ACCIDENT TO MR. G. MELVILLE AT THE LYCECAL THEATRE. —On Saturday evening the, greatest alarm was created at the Lyceum Theatre, in con sequence of a frightful accident to Mr. George Melville, who was performing the part of Kavanagh in the "Peep o' Day." In the quarry scene, when he appears on the verge of the quarry holding on by a tree and watching the movements of the villain who is digging a grave for his sister, the bough broke, and he fell with great violence to the stage beneath. Surgical assistance was promptly at Ihand, and the unfortunate gentleman was removed to the green-room suffering the most intense agony from severe contusions, and it is feared that he will be un able to attend to his professional duties for some time. y hunting is Still HATES, THE ASSASSIN. c a a n r d r ied affordson beyxctihtiengcoenxsetarcbiusela, rytt—hoiinuill though the murderer.
