MONEY MARKET. CITY NE S-SATURD AY. The undermentioned loan instalments fall due on 'Monday, less the amounts already paid in full, viz. :—On the Turkish, 10 per cent. ; on the first issue of the Egyptian, 71 per cent. (less 31, the amount of the half-yearly coupon), being the final instalment ; on the seccnd issue of the Egyptian, 20 per cent. (less the half-yearly coupon) ; and on the Portuguese loan, 5 per cent. About £5,000 in gold was taken to the Bank to-day. The Blue Jacket has arrived from Melbourne with £104,000 in gold, The Arabia, from Boston, has brought £25.000, and the City of Manchester, from New York, £40,000. The Anglesea, with £28,000, is the only Austra lian gold ship known to be now at sea. The mail steamer Oneida, from Brazil, has arrived at Lisbon with £41,026 in specie. In the Liverpool cotton market today there was a fresh advance of td. to ld. per lb., and the trans actions were again considerable, reaching 15,000 bales. A call of £5 is to be paia on the shares in the Union Bank of Ireland (Limited) by the 26th of September. The eighth call of £2 is to be paid on the shares in the Hereford, Hay, and Brecon Railway Com pany by the 29th September. The general meeting of the Turin and Savona Railway Company is called for the Ist of October, at Turin. The liquidators of the Asphaltum Company (Limited) have made a call of 4e. per share upon the contributories, payable on the 22d inst. CITY NEWS---THIS DA/ . CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. The discount market retains a quiet and easy appearance, with only limited inquiries for com mercial purposes, and quotations ranging fully per cent. below the minimum of the Bank of Eng land. In exceptional cases, where the securities offered are of an inferior class, and have only a few days to run, accommodation may be obtained even as low as 11 per cent., and advances on English stock can be procured at 1 to 11 per cent. A favour able effect has evidently been produced by the late extensive arrivals of specie, and the moderate de mand for exportation. In the course of the next few days, however, the market is likely to become rather more active, owing to the monthly liquida tion of commercial accounts, which, notw►thstand ing the quietude of trade, will no doubt temporarily stimulate the inquiry for money; but, at the same time, it is scarcely thought that any alteration will take place in the quotations, because the current supplies of floating capital are so largely in excess of ordinary requirements. Considerable excitement prevailed in several departments of business in the manufacturing dis tricts last week, particularly of Manchester, where an advance of is. to ls. 6d. per piece was exhibited on cloths, owing to the recent advices from Ame rica. The woollen trade in the West Riding of Yorkshire, viz., of Leeds, Bradford, Huddersfield, and several other places has been exceedingly active, and the mills generally hive been working " full time." At Leicester there has been more animation as regards the woollen hosiery depart ment, but at Nottingham business has been in some measure interfered with by the advance on cot ton at Liverpool. In the hardware districts, viz., of Birmingham, Sheffield, and Wolverhampton, there has been little change of importance. The Alaric, from China, has brought 1,220,201 lbs. of tea. Two O'CLOCK. The English Stock Market this morning opened buoyantly, and shortly afterwards, on the nego tiation of a few purchases, a further rise of per cent. took place, Consols then being 931 for money and the 4th inst., and 933 94 for the October settlement. Subsequently, however, sales were pressed, and a reaction of 1 per cent has ensued, the latest quotations being 934 H and 93N 1. The New Threes have improved to 931 5, and the Reduced to 93a Exchequer Bills (June) are 18s. to 21s. prem.; ditto, March, 18s. prem. ; Bank Stock has advanced to 242; and India 5 per Cent. Loan to IbB9 1091. In the Foreign department a further rise has taken place in Italian and Mexican Securities, the former having been 711, and are now 701 71, while Mexican after being 291 30 have reacted to 29, 5 7 ; Moorish 5 per Cents, have advanced to 954 ; Portuguese Scrip to 21- prem. ; Turkish 6 per Cents. 1854, are 851 861 ; ditto, 1858, 681 691 ex div. ; Peruvian 5 per Cents. are 971 ex div. ; the New Loan is 11 1 dis. ; Venezuelan have advanced to 271; and the New Loan toll prem. The Turkish Consolides are 34i. In the Railway Share Market the operations have not keen of a very extensive character. A firmer tone, however, has prevailed. Caledonians, Great Easterns, Great Westerns, and South- Easterns have improved about 55.; Lancashire and Yorkshire, and North British, 10s. ; and South Wales, £l. London and Brighton, and North- Westerns have receded about ss. The Foreign and Colonial undertakings have in one or two instances shown a slight improvement. South Austrian and LombardoNenetian have risen to 224-- 221 ; Recife and San Francisco to 181; Great Luxembourg realise 141; Great Western of Canada, 13i ; Grand Trunk of Canad s, 21 ; East Indian 1041; and Great Indian Peninsula, 1021 103.

POSSESSIONS. FOREIGN RAIL WAYS Paid. Closing Business Price. Done. MARKETS--THIS DAY. MARK LANE. The country markets, held on Saturday, were very moderately supplied with wheat, yet the demand for all qualities ruled heavy, and new produce gave way ls. to 2s. per quarter. Flour moved off slowly,, on rather easier terms, but the value of spring corn was well supported. The Continental markets, almost generally, have b:en steady, at full quotations. Advices from New York stated that extensive shipments of bread stuffs had been made to Great Britain. Up to our markets, last week, the arrivals of home grown produce were small. The imports from abroad were 44408 quart rs of wheat; 4,384 barley, 24,083 oats, 70 rye, 1,100 beans, 3 peas, 5,480 rapeseed, 20 maize, 20 sundry seeds, 1,775 sacks and 32,395 barrels of flour. Fresh up to this morning's market there was a fair ar rival of new home-grown wheat in good condition, and of somewhat improved quality. Owing to the favourable weather, as well as the largo importation of foreign pro duce, the trade was very dull for all qualities, and sales could only be effected by submitting to a reduction in prices, compared with Monday last of fully 3s per quarter. The show of samples of foreign wheat was large. All descriptions were difficult of sale, and a fall of is. to 2s. per quarter took place in the currency of this day se'nnight. Floating cargoes of grain moved off heavily at a decline of Is. per quarter. Very few parcels of new English barley were on offer, and the show of foreign quotations was very moderate. A general firmness pervaded the trade, and the quotations were well supported. . _ The malt trade was dull, and prices had a downward tendency. The market was but moderately supplied with oats, and all descriptions met a steady sale, at full currencies. The show of beans was small, and the value of all kinds was well supported. Peas moved off steady, at full quotations; the supply on offer was much restricted, Flour sold heavily ; American qualities, owing to the large arrivals, gave way 601 to is per barrel, and:country marks were rather cheaper.

To-day's market was extensively supplied with foreign stock. The beasts came to hand in but middling condition ; but the quality of the sheep and calves was tolerably prime. The arrival of beasts fresh up from our own grassing dis tricts, as well as from Ireland, were seasonably good as to number, but somewhat deficient in quality. For all breeds the demand ruled heavy, at a decline in the quotations, compared with Monday last, of 2d per 81bs. Spanish beasts were worth from 4s 2d to 4s 4d per 81bs, and the best Scots, &c., changed hands at from 4s 6d to 4s 8d per 81bs, From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton shire we received 3,100 short-horns, &c. ; from other parts of England, 800 various breeds ; from Scotlanl, 27 Scots and crosses; and, from Ireland, 500 oxen and heifers. The show of English sheep was limited for the time of year, Their general condition, however, was tolerably good. All breeds commanded a steady inquiry, at fully last week's prices. The best Downs realised fully 5s 4d per Sibs, and a good clearance was effected. Lambs, the supply of which was moderate, were in re quest at extreme currencies, viz ,5s to 6s 4d per 81bs. A few pens sold at 6s 6d per 81bs. About 500 lambs reached us from Ireland. We have to report a slow inquiry for calves, on former terms. The supply was moderate. The pork trade was in a sluggish state, nevertheless prices were supported. Per Sib. to sink the offal. s. d. s. d. s. d. s. d.

BORCYCGII AND SPITALFIELDS. Fair average supplies of home-grown potatoes have been received at these markets since our last report.

The fineness of the weather, the rise in cotton, cotton goods as well as flax articles, including the cheapness of money, have encouraged buy e rs from our own manufacturing districts to pu rc h ase more f ree l y, an d i n senao instances a slight advance has taken place in prim. FORGERY BY A CLERGYMAN. N OTTINGHAM, SATURDAY. A painful sensation was created in the town to day in consequence of another forgery (similar to those which were so rife in the town two years ago) having come to light in which a clergyman belong ing to the Established Church is implicated. This afternoon the Rev. Thos. Cartwright, curate of St. Mary's Church, Nottingham, was brought before the Mayor and the local ben 3h of magistrates, at the police-court, charged with uttering a forged bill of exchange, on the 4th ult., with intent to defraud. Mr. Arthur Wells prosecuted, and Mr. Maples defended the prisoner. Mr. Henry Hudson, bill-discounter, Nottingham, deposed that on the 4th August last the prisoner called at his office, and asked him to discount a bill of exchange. The bill now produ3ed was the same, and was as follows : " £2O. Nottingham, July 31st, 1862. " Iwo months after date pay to my order the sum of twenty pounds, value received. " To Mr. Peter Drummond, Stirling. " THOMAS CARTWRIGHT." " Accepted, payable at the bank of Messrs. Robarts and Co., London. " PETER DRUMMOND." Endorsed, " Thomas Cartwright," and "Henry Hudson." Prisoner told witness that Mr. Peter Drummond was the proprietor of a periodical called the British Messenger, and the money was for literary services. He had at the time a copy of the periodical, which he showed to witness in corroboration of his state ment. When the prisoner produced a bill witness observed that it was endorsed on the wrong corner, and at his direction it was endorsed in the proper place. From information he had received he believed the bill to be a forgery. Mr. Superintendent Raynor said that yester day evening, about six o'clock, he went to the pri soner's house with a warrant for his apprehension. The prisoner asked what it was for, and witness said it was for uttering a forged bill of ex change. Prisoner asked to look at the bill, but wit ness refused, stating that he would read it over to him. Prisoner then asked who was preferring the charge, and witness said he did not know. He than took him into custody • Mr. Wells, on behalf of the prosecution, asked for a remand for a week in order to produce Mr. Drummond; this the bench granted. The prisoner appeared very dejected, holding his handkerchief before his face to hide it as much as possible from the gaze of the spectators. The prisoner was ordained by the Bishop of Lin coln on Trinity Sunday lent, being licensed to the curacy of St. Mary's, Nottingham. A year previous to his ordination he conducted divine service in a populous part of the town in connection with the Church of England, as a probation previous to his being ordained. Immediately preceding this he was superintendent minister for the Nottingham district of the New Connection Methodists, but seceded from that body in order to enter the Established Church. Previous to this charge he was always considered an active and zealous man, and was highly respected. The prisoner was removed to the House of Cor rection. It is said that a number of other forged bills are in circulation. SEEDS. Several parcels of new mustardseed have been on offer to-day, for which the trade has ruled heavy.

GARIBALDI.—A letter from Turin, dated Aug. 27, says :—A few days ago, whilst the Princess Pia was sitting for her portrait, the King entered the room to see how the work was going on. The Princess asked her father was there news of Garibaldi. The painter did not catch the whole of the King's reply, but he heard these words— " Poor Garibaldi, they have driven him to commit an act of insanity, abusing his lion heart. The fault is not wholly his, and they have compromised me also." These words were repeated by the painter, and reached the ears of Signor Rattazzi, who was greatly disconcerted by them, thinking ,hey implied a censure upon the Ministry. He hastene d therefore to the King to justify himself by showing tha t , at but had done everything for the advantage of the Crown p , ia ' in the King changed the subject without deiEning t°e :,,t of himself more clearly, The affair has put the Pr esi ci the Council and his colleagues in a bad humour. o f these PORTSDOWN FORTS.—For the erectitc!ethway works Government has taken from Mr. Tti ci . s 0 1 ifortland Hoteydlte:teSfor°rnalittinhhee tiegnhatnstteo'vfooerrf Southwick-park, Hants, who holds the land r life, 900 acres absolutely, together wittl,ideor.

(From the Times' Correspondent.) AUGUST 19. It appears to be certain--though nothing is very certain in this land of fiction, especially if it appears in the newspapers, or is held forward as authentic by the signature of a civil or military functionary, —that M'Clellan has evacuated his position on the James River, crossed the Chickahorniny once again and succeeded in reaching the York River. Whether he has done this without material loss is the point on which further information is needed, but on which it is scrupulously withheld by the 'War Secretary and the military supervisor of the telegraphic lines. Few people believe that the Confederates have been kept in ignorance of M'Clellan's movements—whi c h have been in progress for three weeks—or that, knowing them, they did not attempt to harrass his retreating columns ; but as it is positive that he and his army have escaped destruction, with or without serious damage, it is only due to M'Clellan to confess that he has for once done a great thing, and to wait for further details before attempting to apportion the degree of glory or of credit to which he may be entitled for the achievement. The quiescence of the Confederates under the circum stances, if they were as quiescent as Mr. Stanton would have the world believe, may be accounted for on other suppositions than that of their in ability to strike a :blow. They may have desired tosstrike a blow. They may have desired to faci litate the operations of their retreating foe, because those operations might conduce to their objects more than to his, and because, while General ' Haileck was concentrating his attention on this little business, they might have been concen trating theirs in another direction, and preparing to make a final onslaught with an overwhelming force upon General Pope in the valley of the Shenandoah. The result of M'Clellan's movement, whatever may have been its success, has been to reduce the Great Army of the Potomac to the second rank, and to leave that of the Shenandoah in the first positioe, both for danger and importance. News from the Shenandoah may be hourly expected, and whatever the issue of the battle may be, the battle itself will assuredly be one which will try of what metal Pope is made, and perhaps decide the question whether he can fight at magnificently as he can boast. The atmosphere of the Mississippi river does not appear to be favourable to calm judgment and cor rect statement, whether the narrators of events be Federals or Confederates. Vicksburg was captured ten times over by the Northern flotillas and armies (in the newspapers), though it still remains in the hands of the Confederates, and blocks the whole course of the Mississippi against the armies and trade of the West. With equal untruth, Baton Rouge has been twice or thrice taken (in the news papers) by the ex-Vice-President Breckinridge. The last time the story appeared to be confirmed under the hand of Breckinridge himself, in an official despatch to President Davis at Richmond. But the story was a fabrication, though whether invented by General Breckinridge or by some forger of his name, does not appear. Breckinridge assaulted Baton Rouge with a large force, but General Butler had time to send reinforcements from New Orleans, and the Confederate General was repulsed with heavy loss, and forced to retreat to a distance of 10 ' miles, to prepare for a renewal of the attempt. It is alleged on the authority of some in this city who are in a position to know that the movement was in reality a feint, that its object was to dis- 1 tract the attention of the commander of the Federal flotilla in the Mississippi, so as to enable the Con federates to pass over 20,000 head of cattle further 1 i up the stream, that had been driven from the rich grazing country of Opelousas, and were intended j for the subsistence of the armies of Generals Price 1 and Van Dorn. It is added that this movement I was perfectly successful. If this be so the failure ' of Breckinridge to capture Baton Rouge is not of so much importance as it would otherwise be. One cause of the retreat of Breckinridge appears to have been the mishap that befel the Confederate ram the Arkansas, which got aground. Though cased in a panoply of iron six inches thick she was destroyed and set on fire by a wooden vessel pouring shot into her from the opposite side of the river. If the statement be correct these iron clad monsters are not so invulnerable as they were thought to be when the Merrimac destroyed the Cumberland amid the world's wonder, and hearts of oak not quite so useless as the first circumstances of their collision with an iron-clad seemed to indicate. Hitherto the Confederates have been unlucky with these vessels. The Merrimac and the Arkansas, after exciting vast curiosity as well as alarm, have both perished without fulfilling the expecta tions that were formed of them, and left un proven many problems of which maritime nations , would have been pleased to watch the solution at 1 other expense than their own. Perhaps before this 1 the second Merrimac or Virginia, as she is called by the Confederates, may have appeared on the waters to renew the struggle, the retreat of M'Clellan from the James River having left her at liberty to run past Fort Darling and show the fight that may be in her. The South has at least three other vessels of the same kind ready or nearly ready—one at Savannah, one at Mobile, and a third at Charles ton, so that there will yet be opportunities, if this cruel war is allowed to continue, of testing iron clad against iron-clad,and giving England or France the benefit of American experience in the construc tion of deadly warships. The fragmentary intelligence received from time to time from the Border States shows that the guerilla movement is extending ; and, though the details are confused and contradictory, there is enough cohesion in them to prove that the capture of Richmond by the Federals either under Pope or Al tClellan, or the capture of Washington by Stonewall Jackson and Lee, are not the only in cidents that R ill give gigantic proportions to the struggle. If the whole of M'Clellan's army were this day removed into Kentucky it would not be more than sufficient to maintain order in that State; and if Pope were in Tennessee with all his force he would have enough to do to retain it in subjection. Louisiana is in a state of chronic rebellion. New Orleans is quiet, but only becall e s of the iron hand with which Butler grasp' it s neck; and the banks of the Mississippi f r° that scene of outrages committed by both Pa make one sick to read of.

And while the Federals have men enough in Louisiana to commit such acts, but not enough to keep the peace, it is not to be expected that the Confederates will not retaliate whenever they have the chance, or that the war will [not assume a deadlier and more dis graceful character the longer the humanity or in humanity of Christendom permits it to continue. Two prominent merchants of this city were yes terday arrested and committed to prison on the treacherous testimony of their servants, who played the part of spies and eavesdroppers. The one for stating " that Mr. Lincoln ought to be hung, and that he would advise all his friends if they were liable to be draughted to leave the coun try and go to Canada ;" the other for stating "that the war was an unjust and unholy war; that God did not approve of it; and that if he had to fight, he Would fight for the Southern ConfJede- racy." The Provost Marshal, instead of dismiss ing the rascally informers with contempt for their breach of confidence, telegraphed to Washington to know what to do with the offenders. They will doubtless be sent to Fort Lafayette. But if Mr. Stanton punishes these persons on the testimony of spies in their own households, and allows Mr. Wen dell Philipps and Governor Andrew to do and say as they please, openly in the face of day, his firmest friends will not be able to claim for him the merit of impartial tyranny. The United States, or what remains of them, are still in theory a free Republic, but practically the Government is despotism, which is fast becoming as odious as that of China, if such cases as these are to be punished at all, on such tes timony, before a tribunal of which the War Secre tary is the only judge, and the Provost Marshal the only jury. TRIAL OF 7HE BLACK PRINCE. Like h er s i ster ship the Wa_ ,... rrior, the Black Prince is Pefortunat e as regar d s t h e weather on her speed trials—Saturday, the day appointed for her trial at full power, having been beautifully fine, with the wind light a N.E. off the land, and the water almost without a ripple. Capt. Broadhead, commanding her Majesty's ship Asia and the reserve at Portsmouth, conducted the trial, Mr. A. Murray, the en gineer-in -chief of Portsmouth dockyard, with Nv ar d Mr.second Murdoch, inspector o f machinery afloat, and Mr. engineer of th e d oc k yard, superintending the working of the machinery. Mr. Quadock, master ship wright of Portsmouth dockyard, with a part of his staff, was also on board. Messrs. Mathews and Holiday repre presented Messrs. John Penn and Sons. Among the visi tors to the ship were Mr. Corry, M.P., the secretary to the Board of Admiralty, which ordered the construction of the ship, Admiral Sir Thomas Thompson, Colonel Sir henry James, R.E., &c. The ship lay at anchor, at Spithead , with steam up and chain up and down ready for tripping the anchor on Cape. Broadhead and staff arriving on board, and on that officer's arrival preparations were at once made for taking the ship to the trial ground. In weighing the anchor, however, considerable delay took place, as on Tues day, in connection with the steam capstan, this time one of the rollers giving way. Eventually, however, the anchor was got up and stowed, and the ship reached the course just in time to complete the required six runs while the tide remained available for the purpose. Since the ship's par tial trial on Tuesday, when she only realised a mean speed of 12.2 knots, she has been placed in dock and had her bot tom thoroughly cleansed and the weights on her safety valve also rendered equal to those carried by the Warrior on her trial. Under these circumstances, as both ships were built from the same drawings, and their engines were made in one shop from one set of patterns, it might reason ably have been expected that the speed of both ships would have been as nearly as possible equal; but the result of Saturday's trial has definitively proved the Black Prince, under present circumstances, to be fully a knot per hour inferior in point of speed to the Warrior. The results of the six runs of the Black Prince on Saturday were as follows : Run. Revolutions Time. Speed Ste a m. Vacuum. of min. sec. in knot s . lb. F or 'd . Aft. Engines. 1 368 15.126 22f 24 24 52 2 5 5 11.803 21 24 62 3 4 5 14.69451 f 4 455 12.203 25 241: 51f 5 418 13 953 24! 24f 511: 6 435 13.091 25 241 51 Mean speed of the six runs, 13.317 knots. After making the fourth run to the eastward the ship's course was made towards the Sandhead Shoal, off Ryde, to gain room in which to turn the ship for commencing her fifth run to the westward. A small steamer, said to be the Lady of the Lake, was crossing from Portsmouth to Ryde, on her way to Cowes and Southampton, with a good num ber of passengers on board, and, either by gross negligence or a foolhardy spirit on the part of those in charge of her, attempted to cross the frigate's bows, the latter at the time going at full speed. The passengers on board the small steamer were all absorbed in watching the progress of the mammoth ship, and appeared to be totally unaware of their dangerous position, while no one on board paid any attention to the signalling from the frigate to alter their course. A few moments more and the two ships would have been in contact, when the captain of the passenger steamer rushed on his bridge and by his wild gesticulations appeared to have become suddenly awako to the dangerous ~ position of his ship and passengers. His orders were not given a second too soon, and his little vessel must have answered her helm well and quickly to have extricated herself as she did, just clear of the Black Prince's course. It may be as well to insert here, by way of comparison, the result of the Warriot's six runs on her trial of speed. They were as follow : , Time. Speed in Steam, Vacuum. Run. Min. Sec. knots. Revolutions 1 3 38 16.514 2 4 57 12 121 Engines. 55 3 338 16 514 Equal to 4 4 50 12 , 113 the Black Prince's. 5 3 43 16 . 142 6 4 47 12.543 511 53k 55 531 Mean speed of the six runs, 14,354 knots. By a comparison of the two means it will thus be seen that there is a difference of speed against the Black Prince of 1.037. In seeking for the cause of this difference several may be found, which, together or separately, will give a satisfactory reason for the apparent loss, although it, at the same time, will leave the Warrior as undeniably the faster ship of the two. There is a difference in the pitch of the two screws of about seven inches, and, with the Black Prince altered to this extent, it is calculated that she would increase the revolutons of her engines from her maximum rate of 52 to 54, er perhaps 55, the maximum of the War rior's, which would give her at the same time an increase of speed. Again, the Black Prince had on Saturday a mean draught of water 0f:74 .. inches over that of the Warrior on her trial, the former drawing 26ft. forward and 27ft. 2in. aft, while the latter only drew 25ft. bin. forward and 26ft. Sin. aft. This would necessarily add to the Black Prince's displacement and to the amount of resistance she would have to overcome in passing through the water. It will also be in the recollection of all those interested in such matters that before leaving the Clyde the Black Prince grounded and heeled over considerably, causing fears at the time that she had somewhat strained herself. We have before alluded to the slight disturbance in her upper port line, and there is little doubt that she has dropped slightly at each end since receiving her weights on board. If the form of her bottom is at all altered, here alone is a s ufficient cause to account for the loss of a knot per h onr o f speed. Looking at all these causes, however, a election c an on l y be fairly made of the 7i inches extra di s p lace ment, and the difference in the pitch of the two scre ws as th e true sources to which must be ascribed the Blau Prince' s d e f eat. This extra dis placement, however, d eserves so me consideration. No rea son can be assigned , with any c er t a i nty of its success, for ck draught of w a t er exceeding that of t h e ihary en gines exceeded in weight that of but for thi s th e Warrior ' s Rifle Tower, t w he ar ß ri l o a r c . k H P e ri r n o c al e tons of arm our plates, more than compensated. The bottomt w h i e th iattste3rs WP, of the Black P r i nce must therefore be sharper than tball rarrices, must be th rown out o f proper f orm,or h er P lates must be cons i derablythe heaviest. Over so vast surfa ce the 32d p ar t of an inch would make a great difference Saturday, machinery, the which reputation fully iv the ship's weight. O ne thing is certain—the loss of a knot p er hour of the shi p ' o btto ship's speed under st eam i s no t d u e to her m o f a i t n h t e a i eminentne , by fi i :m s by workingwhom on it was manufactured. The loss, then, is due, in some form, to the ship's hull ; and to ascertain positively whether it is owing to the ship's immersion, or to her form of bottom, it would be necessary to lighten her, trim her to the same draught as the Warrior, set her propeller exactly to the same pitch, and try her again at the mile under, as nearly as could be done, the same circumstances as attended the Warrior's trial. With reference to the speed of ships under steam generally, some misunderstanding appears to exist in the public mind, If a ship is stated to have made 14 knots at the measured mile many persons look upon this as denoting the ship's future speed at sea. Never was a notion more fallacious. From all speeds made at the measured mile 11 knot may be deducted, the remainder giving the ship's best rate of speed at sea, with good fuel, clean fires, and the ship, in fact, " pushed" to do her best. Taking a ship's average speed at sea, two knots may be deducted from the measured mile rate. The reason of this is obvious. At the measured mile she burns the best picked fuel, her fires are attended by a body of experienced stokers from the steam factory of the dockyard, under their own foremen, and the trial is never made when important, like the Black Prince, except under the most favourable circumstances of weather. This explanation will account for the apparent discrepancy in the speed of the Warrior on her late run with the Lords of the Admiralty in their yacht Osborne down Channel and what she realized at the measured mile., When the Warrior made her 14.354 knots at the measured mile her average speed was set down at 12i knots, and this, with a clean bottom, there is no doubt is her true sea rate. Meanwhile, it is worth observing , here that notwithstanding the numerous "infallible" pre , parations for preserving clean the bottoms of iron ships there is yet a noble fortune to be won in that way. The Black Prince will make her trial of speed at half boiler power to-day, after which she will be swung at Spithead to ascertain the deviation of her compass, pre ; paratory to proceeding on her maiden cruise. Whether she or the Wa:rior eventually possesses the superiority in p oolt of speed, the Black Prince is emphatically a grand ship, a c n!: Captain Wainwright must feel just pride in being Pia e" in command of her. from Mid-Dent, a y. -- g T r h e e a t li h r o s p t WORCESTER HOP MARKET, Saturd instead day'but of not of Worcester growth, the sample being sample of 1862 hops was shown in ourse,tsehearrekewt 01. and purchased by a Worcester fairmerchant 2, oo o t takes e 3 s ,o p o l Our probably (:) st lace pockets tu t s : br e eesi ltth : ri o tno f twv„uen : d September,al the but, being choked, as is sometimes a o rs even )) are eagerly bought up at not be 50 pockets on sale.
