~__ - MONEY MARKET. CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. Priem the manufacturing districts the accounts ast week have o:gain been of a more satisfactory character. A moderate amount of business bus been done in cloths at Manchester, chiefly for India and China. In the woollen trade ttt Leeds the inquiries for light fabrics have been to an avertge extent, and preparations are in pro gress for the autumn aud winter supplies. At Bradford, Rochdale, and Halifax, there has been little change of importance, while the hosiery and lace trades of Leicester and Nottingham have con tinued dull. In the hardware districts there have been symptoms of improvement, and at Birming ham, Sheffield, and Wolverhampton, the receipt of orders for immediate execution from several of the continental markets, as well as from South and North America, has caused the operatives to be more fully employed. There was an increased inquiry for cotton in the Liverpool market on Saturday, and prices were firmly maintained. The sales were 7,000 bales. The traffic receipts of the Great Western Rail• way of Canada, for, the week ending the 21st ult., amounted to £10,232 against £10,781 last year. About £60,000 in gold was sent into the Bank on Saturday. during he The Africa from New York has brought £40,600 in specie. Notice has been issued to the effect that the sub scription list of the new Egyptian loan will close at 2 o'clock, to-morrow (Tuesday) afternoon. On Saturday the total applied for was £3,878,400, while tha amount to be emitted is only £2,195,200. A considerable addition has been made to-day, and further subscriptions are yet anticipated. The new security is at 11 premium. _ The Metropolitan Railway Carriage and Waggon Company requires £1.00,000 to engage in the busi ness of letting carriages and waggons to railway companies, mineral owners, merchants, and others, a description of enterprise which is considered lkiely to prove very successful. The Italian Irrigation Canal Company, for which a capital of £1,000,000 is invited in 50,000 shares of £2O each, has already attracted much attention. The Italian Government guarantees a minimum in terest of 6 per cent., and a sinking fund to provide for the redemption of the shares, which will take place annually by la, with the advantage that after the proprietors have received back their capital in full they will remain participators in all profits ex ceeding 6 per cent. during the remaining term of the concession. The directors, both in Italy and in this country, occupy highly respectable positions. The company is formed for the construction of irri gation works in Northern Italy, extending from the foot of the Alps to the frontiers of Lombardy, and remunerative profits are anticipated. It appears that 20,000 shares are reserved for Italy, leaving 30,000 for allotment in this country. There is very little change to report in the gene ral aspect of the discount market, but the demand has slightly relaxed ; the rates seem a shade easier, and bills are again negotiable at 2 per cent., and in exceptional cases even a fraction lower. The extensive introduction of new schemes, however, is calculated to create caution among the leading capitalists, who on the appearance of the least in crease in the inquiry will no doubt avail them selves of the opportunity to enforce higher rates. CITY NEWS, THIS D.A.Y. Two O'CLOCK. A dull and rather heavy market prevails for the English Funds, although the variation has been un important. The New Loans, and other projects, occupy almost exclusive attention. Consols are 931 8 for money, and the 10th instant, and 938 94 for the 18th proximo. The New Threes and the Reduced remain at 921 t. Exchequer Bills are heavy at 18s. prem. Bank Stock has been dealt in at 2352 and 236 ; India ditto at 2248 ; and the 5 per Cents. at 108 Z e• . _ _ Increased heaviness is apparent in the Foreign Market, and the dealings are limited. Turkish 6 per Cents. are 831 ; ditto 1858, 70. Mexican have further receded to 331 ; Italian 5 per Cents. to 661; Portuguese to 451 46; and Sardinian are flat at 811 821; and Spanish Deferred at 431 1. The New Turkish Scrip is 1 2 prem. ; and the Egyptian Loan, 11 prem. In the Railway Share Market the operations have again been very restricted, and the few bargains recorded have shown increased depression in values. Gretat Westerns and North Eastern (Berwick) have declined Os.; Eastern Counties, Great Northern A Stock, Lancashire and Yorkshire, Midland, and South Eastern 10s. The Foreign and Colonial lines have remained very inactive, and without, however, any material change of importance in values. Great Luxemburg realise lq ; San Paulo 61 ; Grand Trunk of Canada 251 ; Great Western 'of Canada 131 ; East Indian 1041; and Madras 5 per Cents. have improved to 1024. Joint Stock Bank Shares have continued rather dull. Ottoman Bank bave receded to 261 ; Bank of Egypt realise 236 4 ; Oriental Bank 54 ; and Union of London 321. The Shares of the Alliance Bank are 41, 51 prem. ; Imperial, 1, 1 prem. ; Northern Counties, 31, 4 prem. ; and the Chartered Bank of British Columbia and Van Co'rer's Island, only introduced this morning, 3 to 31 prem. In the Miscellaneous Market there has been less buoyancy. Peninsular and Oriental Steam have declined to 68 ; the New Shares to 401 ; National Miscount Company realise 51;end Red Sea and Telegraph Company, 19 to 191. BRITISH FUNDS--ONE O'CLOCK.

The capital is fixed at the moderate but sufficient sum of £250,000, in shares of £2O each, and the board of directors comprises the representatives of leading houses in the North American trade and others of standing to ent itle them to public confidence. The head office will be in London, and the chief colonial establishment at Victoria, Vancouver's Island, other branches being contemplated in proportion as the prosperity and transactions of the colony become extended . The bank willissue notes, discount bills, re ceive deposits, and conduct exchange operations with C anada, China, India, Australia, Japan, and elsewhere, and p er f orm in short all usual money business. The recent advices from British Columbia have shown that a more legitimate un dertaking, or one for which there is more urgent need, could not have been introduced, and the circumstance of its prompt formation is the m or e satisfactory from the fact that if it had been delayed the field would -speedily have b een occupied by speculators of the class w ho are al ways ready to form a company for any plaee or any pur pose on 24 hours' notice. T he solicitors are Messrs. Fresh field and Newman, and the brokers Messrs. Mullens, Marshall, and Daniell, and Messrs. Hill, Fawcett, ani THE 2D LIFE GUARDS.—The court of inquiry into the state of the 2d Life Guards, consisting of Generals Lawren,son and Lord George Paget and Sir A. Horsford, adjourned from last Saturday to yesterday, when it re su med is sittings at the Regent Park Barracks, where the regi • anent is now quartered. We hear of some pending resi g „ nations among the officers, which will still further reduce ho number of subalterns. —Army and Zravy aazOtte, id fo Is. 63 ' ea° Ley r e ' he og e , B .41'4 Is, aft er , great __._~„~ SHARE MARKET---THIS DAY.

CORN EXCHANGE. The transactions in wheat in the leading country mar kets held on Saturday were limited, and inferior samples were again somewhat lower in price. Spring wheat and flour moved off slowly, and the quotations were with diffi culty supported. Throughout the Continent the corn trade generally rules heavy, but no change has taken place in the currencies. At the date of our last advices very little business was doing in breadstuffs at New York on English account. Very small supplies of English grain were received up to our market last week. From abroad we received 27,733 qrs wheat, 17,308 qrs barley, 12,493 qrs oats, 5,000 qrs beans, 1,210 qrs tares, 17,749 qrs linseed, 2,010 qrs rape seed, 5,251 qrs maze, and 720 sacks and 68,238 brls flour. To this morning's market the arrivals of English wheat, fresh up, were exceedingly small ; consequently the total supply on offer was much• restricted, and the condition of the samples, owing to the continuance of damp weather, was very inferior. The few dry parcels on sale were dis posed of at last Monday's currency ; otherwise, the trade was in a sluggish state, yet, compared with this day se'en• night no quotable change took place in prices. The whole of the supply was net disposed of at the close of business. We were well supplied with foreign wheat. In good and fine qualities a fair consumptive business was trans acted, and on the whole the quotations wore steadily main tained. Inferior descriptions moved off slowly at the late decline in prices. Floasffig cargoes of grain were in moderate demand, at late curriences, The supply of English barley was small ; of foreign, somewhat extensive. Malting qualities were scarce, and they sold readily at extreme rates ; but other descriptions were a dull inquiry, on former terms. _ compared with M on d a y l as t. T Malt changed hand , slowly, yet no change took place in show of oats, both English and foreign, was mode rately extensive. Good and fine corn mot a steady sale, at full prices; otherwise the oat trade was dull, and the quo tations were barely supported, ' Beans were in limited supply, but slow request, at last Monday's currency. The inquiries for peas were without improvement, yet prices ruled firm, in consequence of the small supply on sale. Barrel flour, owing to the largo import last week, moved off heavily, at fully the late reduction in its value. Town-made qualities, as well as country marks, com manded very little attention, and in some instances prices ruled in favour of buyers. CURRENCY PER IMPERJAL MEASURE.

For the time of year there was a fair supply of foreign stock on. offer to-day as to number, but its general quality was very middling,- when compared with several previous weeks. : Sales progressed slowly, at barely stationary prices. • .

There has been a slight improvement in the market for English wool since our last report. Down qualities have fully supported previous rates, and for deep-grown qualities there has been more inquiry, though without leading to any advance in the quotations. We do not, however, consider the market by any means active. Colonial and foreign wools have commanded very little attention. Last week's imports were 6,077 bales'from Sydney; 4,642 Port Philip; 1,515 Algoa Bay; 2,564 Adelaide; 1,077 Hobart Town; and 3,939 bales from Geelong. SEEDS. A steady business is doing in red cloverseed, at full prices, but white qualities command very little attention. Linseed and rapeseed move off steadily, and the quotations are well supported.

This committee assembled again this forenoon. George Bancroft corroborated the statement given in evidence by his brother that they had been offered £2O for their votes , and their refusal to take less than £BO between them. He also confirmed the statement of his brother as to Kirk, the butcher, h..ving offered them £5O between them to vote for Chapman, and Dr. Holland made them the, same offer. In cross-examination by Sir F. Slade, he said he had not made up his mind as to what he would get for his vote. His brother managed. He did not think it was a fair ques tion to ask him if he would have sold his vote. He did not, however, get a " ha'penny" for it. Samuel Wardle, a freeman of Grimsby, said he promised to vote for Heneage. He was asked by Newby before the election what he was going to do with his vote. He (Newby) asked him if £5 would be any good to him, a n d he said money was always of use to a poor man. He said he was astonished that Newby should vote for Chapman after all he had said against him, and he said he had beat about the bush long enough, and that an election was a pocket question. Newby also said Chapman had promised him the painting work at the docks should not be taken away from the town. He went into a public-house and saw a small parcel lying on the table. Newby was in the room, and after be nodded be (wiliness) took it up. There were five sovereigns in the paper. He gave it to his wife. There was any quantity of beer to be had for the asking. In cross examination, he said he was one of the lucky ones who had had six weeks' " lark" in London and the Isle of Wight. He never tried to get parties to tell tales about Mr. Chapman. Ellen Wardle corroborated the evidence of her husband, and identified the piece of paper which had contained the five sovereigns. She marked it when she first got it. In answer to Sir F. Slade, she said she spent some of the money in getting clothes out of pledge, and she had some of it in her possession at that moment. After some further evidence, the committees adjourned. POLICE---THIS DAY. LAW---THIS DAY. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner Goulburn.) APPLICATION FOR RELEASE FROM PRISON.-IN RE WEBSWER. This bankrupt applied fur release from custody, and was opposed by Mr. England, on behalf of a creditor, on the ground that the bankrupt had committed a breach of trust as an executor, by not paying into court a sum of money which he had received as executor, and had been ordered to pay into court, and in default of doing so was in contempt. His Honour—That is not a fraud. Mr. England—He acknowledges that he has received the money and has not paid it over. His Honour—That may be a contempt, but no fraud. Mr. England—l did not say a fraul, but a breach of trust in not paying over the money when he receives it or account for it. His Honour—Do you mean to say that every executor who receives money, and does not account for it at the moment, is guilty of breach of trust. . _ . Mr. England—The bankrupt admits he received £194 as executor of one Norris, in February, 1860, and he asserts he has made payments to the amount of £94, and that he holds the remainder, although he has been written to over and over again to appropriate the money according to the will. His Honour—That is to pay certain legacies. Do you mean to say that the non-payment is a breach of trust? I do not think it is ? The order for discharge will issue, but the bankrupt's conduct will be tested on a future occasion. Order for release gr anted accordingly. IN RE G. STIFF-THE MORNING CHRONICLE. After a long discussion, Mr. Hodge (Spalding and Hodge) and Mr. Ed ward Hart (of the firm of ll!trt Brothers and Hayles) were chosen assignees, Debts, £31,652 ; secured, £26,000 ; property held by cre ditor, £61,500; book debts, £5,000. , SHERIFFS' COURT. (Before Mr. Sergeant Wheeler.) TELEGRAPH COMPANIES AND THE rußLic-IMPORTANT DECISION-LARA V. THE BRITISH AND IRISH MAGNE- TIC TELEGRAPH COMPANY. This was an action to recover damages for delay in the delivery of a certain telegraphic message and 6d. charge in excess as postage. _ Plaintiff, who is a professional man, said that he had to send a message to an old servant. The message was not delivered in Portsmouth until nearly two o'clo3k, it having really reached the Portsmouth station by the return of the officer, at 40 minutes past eleven. Now, the plaintiff com plained that this delay was most excessive. The place to which the message was directed was only about a mile from the Portsmouth station, and plaintiff could walk the distance in less than a quarter of an hour. As to the over charge of 6d., that had been admitted. A person who attended for defendants, said that plaintiff had sued the wrong company, bat the case would be de fended upon its merits. The real defendants were the London District Telegraph Company, whose lines did not proceed further than London, and this message went through no less than four companies. If the people would look at the conditions upon the back of the message paper, it would be seen that plaintiff was out of court. His Honour (Mr. Serjeant Wheeler) pointed out to the plaintiff that the only means of ensuring punctuality was by ensuring the message, and therefore he could not recover damages. Defendants' representative explained the cause of the delay, by saying that the boy could not find the place ; but plaintiff entirely contradicted this, and said that as to the sixpence, defendants had sent a cheque for the amount upon a station, but it was not a legal tender, and plaintiff refused it. His Honour said he thought plaintiff might have taken it, but there was a little feeling on each side. Plaintiff would have a verdict for sixpence. Plaintiff—l should not have taken this step had a proper apology been made. CRIMINAL COURT--THIS DAY OLD COURT. (Before the Recorder.) The April session of the Central Criminal Court com menced this morning before the Lord Mayor, the Recorder, the Sheriffs, and other civic authorities. The calendar contained the names of 124 prisoners for triaL The Recorder, in charging the grand jury, said,although there was a very great number of prisoners for trial, owing to the long adjournment of the court, there was only one involving the loss of life, and this was one of rather a peculiar character. The person accused was a member of the medical profession, and the offence imputed to him was the causing the death of a woman whom he had attended for child birth. It would be for the grand jury to satisfy themselves whether death was caused by want of skill and neglect. He explained them, that of a surgeon, through his gross neglect or un skilfulness, caused the death of his patient, he was in law guilty of manslaughter, It was not, however, to be sup posed, that a mistake which he might make would render him amenable to law; but, if they were satisfied from evi dence that would be kid before them that death was caused by his gross neglect and want of skill, it would be their duty to find a true bill against the accused. His lordship then alluded to a charge of forgery and perjury against a person named Brown, which arose out of a charge which was tried last session, and the party who was then charged with forgery now charged the present person, who was then the prosecutor, with:forging the do cument which he was alleged to have forged. These wore the only cases he thought he need refer to, and with the usual intimation that the assistance of the court would be readily :given in ,the event of its being required, his lordship dismissed the jury from the performance of their duty. THE CHARGE OF BIGAMY AGAINST MRS. WILSON. _ _ _ Mr. Giffard, on the part of Mrs, Barbara Catharine Wil son, against whom a charge of marrying Captain Le Hunt Wilson, her first husband, Jonathan Gotobed, being then alive, applied for the postponement of the trial of the lady until the next session, or the session after, on the ground that owingjto the want of funds she had been unable up to the present time to procure the necessary witnesses from To ronto to prove that at the time of Gotobed's marriage with her, in 1848, he was then a married man. The learned gentleman then detailed the facts of the case to his lordship, which have already appeared in The Sun during the exa mination of Wilson at Bow-street police-court. The Recorder said the trial had already been postponed, and he should like to know what had been done towards procuring the attendance of the necessary witnesses to prove the previous marriage of Jonathan Gotobed. Mr. Giffard said they had been in communication with several parties in Canada, but it was very important that Mrs. Wilson should not disclose the names of the parties shs wished should be in attendance at her trial, as they might perhaps be induced not to appear. The Recorder asked when it was likely the parties would be in attendance ? Mr. Giffard was unable to say, but in the event of the present application being granted, Mrs. Wilson would send a person to Toronto to obtain the necessary evidence with the greatest possible expedition. Mr. Pollock on the part of the prosecution resisted the application on the ground that since the lady first knew that an indictment for bigamy was to be preferred against her she had had ample time to obtain the evidence she required to prove prior to the marriage of Jonathan Gotobed. The Recorder wanted to know what had been done since he postponed the trial on the sth of last March? Mr. Giffard said there was no affidavit. The Recorder observed that since March it appeared to him nothing had been done, although it had been stated that if the application was then granted a person would be at once despatched to Toronto to obtain the necessary evi dence. He would carefully look over the affidavits that had now been put in, and give the answer to the application to-morrow. 41 43 10 1 1 22 23 s(ii f.7i 59 (51 39 41 92 94 32 :12 103 105 1151 116 i 113 115 132 134 104 106 73i 74 55 58 107 1071 57 59 121 123 45 46 9211 93 91 100 8 11 421 43i 9 91 1271 1281 11 98 100 65 67 65 c5l 96-1 97 p r d 54} 551 81 85 101 103 51 d 101 11% 124 120 49 50 105 107 46 47 36i 374 82i 83 67 69 100 102 6 1 37,E 384. gi P 6 64 p 145 150 55i 564 2} 3i d 91 fd 129 132 6a 6; 57i i 7 4 i 1071 6; 1221 920 100 991 1271 6 11 p 97 6f d Bcs 124 ff 82i i FOREIGN MI: Australian BonAccord Copper,Lim.

CAPTURE OF A NOTORIOUS CHARACTER.—A PUGILIST CHARGED WITH UTTERING A FORGED BANK NOTE.— David Hayes, a pugilist, living at Graham's Coffee-shop, Little White Lion-street, Seven Dials, was charged, before Mr. Tyrwhitt, by Sergeants Joy and Franklin, of the C and G Divisions, with uttering a forged £lO Bank of England note, with intent to defraud Mr. Gervase Bird, tailor, of 2, John-street, Grosvenor-square. The prisoner has once been convicted of a highway rob bery, with another man named " Carrotty Davis," in Seven Dials, and has for some time been mixed up with thieves and ufterers of counterfeit coin. Mr. Gervase Bird said—On the sth of March, in the evening, the prisoner called on me and said, " Mr. Bird, do you know me." He then said, "Do you remember a per son named Tiney ?" I said, "Yes," and the prisoner then mentioned several circumstances that brought him back to my recollection. I then said, " Where have you been ?" and he replied, " I've been in the country with a gentle man, and he gave me a £lO note, and as you have made clothes for some persons I know, I thought I would get you to clothe me." As the prisoner told such a feasible story I measured him for some clothes, and he then took a £lO note out of his portemonnaie and laid it on the counter for rue to take Ll out of it as a deposit. I did so, giving him a£s note and four sovereigns back. As the prisoner did not call on the day appointed, and my son felt some suspi cion of the note, I took it to a neighbour, who refused to change it, and I then went to the West-end Branch of the Bank of England in Burlington-street, and it was there pronounced a forgery, and was stamped so, the good one of the same number, " 49,037," being in the books. I have had the note in my possession over since.. Mr. John Bird, son of prosecutor, corroborated him, and also identified the prisoner. Sergeant Joy, 90, • said—l captured the prisoner, in company of Sergeant Franklin, at the Cheshire Cheese, Dean street, Holborn, on. Saturdarnightiectompany with several other thieves. On telling him the charge, he said "Do as you like with me." While taking him from the house, noticing a suspicious movement of his hands, Ser geant Franklin observed him drop a counterfeit crown piece. Sergeant Franklin proved picking up the counterfeit coin. Mr. Tyrwhitt remanded the prisoner till to-morrow week, it being stated that several other notes—all forged—of the same date aro in circulation. THAMES THIS DAY. JACK ON A LEE SHORE.—Stephen Rice, a sailor, was brought before Mr. Woolrych, charged with being drunk and disorderly, and damaging a cab. George Castles, a cab driver wearing the badge 11,487, stated that on Saturday night he was engaged by the pri soner and a landsman, his friend, to drive them to the Eagle, in the Mile-end-road, and from there to St. George's in• the-East, where a host of loose women, finding the pri soner was a homeward bounder and had got money about him, would have plundered him if his friend had not protected him and got him away from them. The prisoner, who was getting drunk and noisy, was requested by his friend to go home with him out of harm's way, who informed him that the land sharks were about and would fleece him. The prisoner was very obstinate : got into the cab again, and after riding a few yards, he opened the door, swung upon it and broke it from its hinges. Ho stopped the cab, and the prisoner smashed the door, and rendered it useless. Mr. Woolrych—Did the prisoner and his friend pay the fare ? Witness—Yes, sir; the fair was paid—they paid me 4s. Mr. Woolrych—What is the amount of the damage done ? Witness—£2 ss. Mr. Woolrych—What, is it a whole cab broken up ? Witness—Not a very old cab, nearly a new one. Mr. Woolrych—£2 58 is a large sum for a cab-door. Witness—Here is the coachmaker's 15s. for a new door, and 20s. for the hire of a cab for the week. I lost tny day's work yesterday, and another day's work to-day. It will be a £5 job. Mr. Woolrych did not believe the bill. I won't believe a new cab door will cost 355. The prisoner said he was "by the head" on Saturday night, and he was very willing to make compensation. The parties were allowed to arrange the matter, and the cabman reduced his demand to 205,, and he went home with the sailor to get the money. SPORTING NOTES. CITY AND SUBURBAN AND METROPOLITAN. I shall refer to the above races on Wednesday ; but my present impression is, that Dueat could repeat the Virago ' fete by winning the double event if his owner would let him try ; but certain movements in the market on Saturday would indicate that ho may be an absentee for the City and Suburban. However, by Wednesday, I will be able to express a more definite opinion, but would advise that no liberties be taken-with him for either of his races. A FRESH MAN. BETTING AT MANCHESTER—SATURDAY. An attempt was made to-day to back several horses for the Metropolitan Stakes, but few were disposed to open their books on that event. 100 to 8, and afterwards 100 to 10, were taken about Ducat, which price (100 to 10) would have been taken about Panique. For the City and Subur ban Handicap, although Vancouver is the favourite, most money was put on Phantom. Judging from the business done, the Vest colt, Ducat, and Suburban were not so firm. 100 to 8 was laid during the day against Ducat, but at the close no one seemed diEposed to make an offer, and when the offer against Suburban reached 12 to 1 it was readily taken. Palestro and Limosina advanctid to 20 to 1 each. 'Buckstone was freely supported for the Derby. For the Two Thousand Guineas Stakes, 100 to 9 was wanted about Caterer.

THE INCUBATION OF THE PYTTION.—AII hopes of the hatching are now at an end ; the eggs were removed on Friday morning. Th ere i s n o doubt that the frequent ret for the proper develop removals of the blanket in uncov erin g the e gg s, and the occas ional partial uncoilings of th e snake, caused to o flume_ rous sudden changes of tenWe ure ment of the young, which originally, we know f rom Mr. Bartlett's dissection, were in them. A NEW RAM —A letter from New York, received in Liverpool, reports that t . ho Government has purchased i n stead of iron protecting plates purpose the wooden steamer Vandere . ilt, and are fitting her with an iron prow, and A- s the Vand er bil t possesses great using cotton ha les ' engine power, it is anticipated that she may be able to punch a hole in the Merrimac when th a t re d ou btable v esse l aga i n takes the offensive. ft would, however, appear to have been forgotten that cotton wh en i gn ited emit s a su ff oca ti ng smoke, and that consequently, in the event of a shell ex ploding among the bales, the crew would have to abandon kw vessel, A. letter from Tangier gives the following account of the barbarous punishment inflicted on a Moor for cattle lifting in the neighbourhood of Tetuan : " On Sunday, the 16th inst., after returning from a walk, I remarked a foot and hand, evidently re cently cut off, hanging over the principal entrance to the Lien. This disgusting sight made me in quisitive, and I have since ascertained the following facts :—On the 15th an execution of the most revolt ing description took place here. A Moor, who, it appears, had been arrested on account of some rob beries of cattle committed in the vicinity of Tetuan, atoned for his sins by having a hand- and foot amputated before a crowd of people in the market place. The operation, lam told, was performed by a butcher's apprentice, under circumstances the most brutal and heartsickening, lasting more than a quar ter of an hour. The unfortunate victim was then thrown into an open shed outside the town, and left to his fate without a relative or friend to minister to his wants or dress his wounds. As the authorities would afford him no assistance whatever, while the public in general did not dare to do so from fear of incurring the displeasure of the former, the wretched sufferer was deprived of all succour till the following day, when after a night's ex posure to cold, wind, and rain, a poor Moor (but under British protection) had him conveyed to his house, procured efficient medical aid, and had done all in his power to relieve his sufferings. Had be been allowed to remain under the roof of this good Samaritan his mutilated limbs might possibly have been healed and his life saved ; but no, the authori ties had not yet done with him. On the 20th inst. they demanded him and removed him to the Mur stan,' the filthiest of places answering all the pur natic asylum, and sick hos poses of poorhouse, pital, and situate in disagreeable proximity to the dead house, Poor wretch ! as might have been ex peted, he was found dead the following morning , after five days of the most fearful sufferings." BORE. Tat. MILER EXPLOSION AND LOSS OF LIFE. l w os y oc curred by ion' A frightful catastrophe , which has occasioned loss s T t h ea e m ex s p a of life, occurred at Hull , on Frida y , o n the premises sawyers, the of bursting Messrs. W. Barron a an large shortly after six in the morning , and at that time two lads, about thirteen years of age , named boiler. Co., er. William Henry Milner and William Stephenson, were sitting on either side of the boiler fire. The engineer and two workmen were also near the boiler, and they were blown several yards in different directions. The boiler was seen to bound out of its socket, and strike against the bottom of two chimneys in connection with the works, which were five or six yards dis tant in a straight line. It was again raised from its position by the steam several feet into the air, and revolved quite round, falling almost into its socket again. It then burst quite open, and blew a piece of the boiler, weighing nearly a ton, over a wall several feet high. The shed of the boiler •house was terribly shattered, and blew in all directions, none of the spars or tiles being left near the spot, and many of the pieces were carried a distance of 60 or 70 yards. All the houses in the vicinity are more or less visibly marked by the losion, while sore of the roofs are actually blWn in. W. H. Milner, one of the lads who was sitting at the boiler fire, was smothered by the debris, and when got out was quite dead. The other lad was buried up to the armpits, and, although he was very much scalded, he escaped - with his life. A naan named John Whitfield was blown through a small hole which had been made in the boiler-house wall, and was very seriously injured about the head. John Stephenson and ether workmen were blown into a crane about 20 yards distant, and miraculously escaped with a few bruises. The engineer wa s lifted into a round, seven or eight feet from the ground, but was not much hurt. Several of the men also escaped with slight injuries. The boiler was built about eight years. Three years since it was strengthened for high pressure, and worked for some time et 601 b per square inch. At the time of the explosion, we are intormed, it was being worked at low pressure, at only - 12lb per square inch. BEDDING ROSES. The two most perfect bedding roses known aro Cramoisie Superieure and Fabvier, of the Bengal section (liosa _lndica). They begin to bloom early, and they continue to bloom even after frost has witheied the wettest of their buds, and they are of such a glowingfiery crimson that, as far as mere colour is concerned, they have no equals. They are very much alike, and I have long endeavoured to deter mine which of the two is the best. I think I must decide for Cramoisie, but it scarcely matters which is used, or if the two arc mixed in the same bed. These are very dwarf, have striking bronzy foliage, and do not assort in the same row or mass with roses that have decidedly green leaves. In the same sec tion of Bengal or China roses we have Archduke Charles which may be used for the same purpose as the two just mentioned, where a diversity is re quired; but it is a second-rate bedding rose; the colour is not satisfactory, though bright, and it has a coarseness of habit which will annoy a fastidious eye. Lastly, among these little Chinas, we have Mrs. Bosanquet, a delicate pale flesh, the flowers in clusters, very double, and of the highest quality in every sense. These are all the bedders in th e w h o l e of this list, but there are plenty more of the same dwarf, neat growth, and profusely flowering habit. The Noisettes offer some beauties, and for colour Fellenberg is unequalled, It is of dwarf habit, a vigorous but not robust grower, very herdy, always in bloom, and the blooms a cheerful cher,. y crimson, with that minute desh of blue in it which makes it somewhat of an approach to Magenta. A true bedder is Fellenberg, and splendid in a mass. In the same we have Ophirie, a trifle more vigorous than the last, habit racemes°, foliage exquisitely beautiful, blossoms nankeen copper, very distinct. and a splendid contrast to the crimsons in a bed. Among all the beautiful noisettes there are but three others fit for the purpose now before us, namely, Miss Glegg, Aimee Vibert, and Caroline Mar n iesse ; the first two are nearly alike, robust growers, bright shining foliage, and abundance of white flowers in clusters; the last is a free grower and an abundant bloomer, but the tint of pink in the buds and centres of the flowers very much detracts from. its merit as a bedder. Perhaps Viscomtesse d'Avesne might answer as a bedder for the sake of mauve coloured roses, but its ugly upright habit, and its ragged appearance when a few faded blooms are allowed to hang, prevent me recommending it as I have the others. Among the Teas, Gloire de Dijon is unrivalled for a pillar, a standard, or a bed, but it grows strong and is nothing if not big, and here then we have material for the centre of a large bed, where the colour, yellow salmon, would tell grandly with circles of crimson round it.—Gardener' Weekly Magazine and Floricultural Cabinet.
