MONEY MARKET. CITY NEWS-YESTERDAY. About 110,000 in gold was bought by the Bank to-day, while 45.000 sovereigns were withdrawn, including 20,000 for exportation to Lisbon. - The Lincolnshire has arrived from Melbourne with £195,000 in gold, and the Orwell with £ 1 24,000, making a total of, £319,000. It is not certain that thin amount will be despatched abroad. Th e only gold ships known to be now on the way from Australia to England are the Blue Jacket with £104,000, and (he Anglesea with £28,000. The Australian mail steamer brought £284,856 in gold to Ceylon, of which only about £20,000 was for London, the rest being for India. Messrs. Dent, Palmer, and Co. have announced the half-yfmrly dividend due the Ist proximo, on the Turk is'h Six per Cent. Loan of 1858. The Stook Exchange committee has appointed Monday, 25th August, a special settling day in the scrip of the Portuguese and Egyptian (second issue) l 'alaa, which are to be marked with 10 per cent. and 20 per cent. paid respectively, as well as fully Paid up. The demand for money continues active, both at the Bank of England and elsewhere, and the lowest ra te for good bills in most quarters is 2 per cent. At Paris to-day the Three per Cent. Rentes °Poned at 68fr. 85f., and closed at the same price for money, and 68f. 95c. for the account, being sc. better than on Saturday. It is said that some further amounts of sovereigns will shortly be transmitted to Constantinople on account of the last loan, and that further moderate withdrawals will likewise take place in payment for Turkish Home stock lately sold in the English market. There is an idea in some quarters that the forgery lately attempted upon the Bank of England may induce a num b er of persons, par ti c ularly in country di stricts, to cha nge their notes for gold, thereby t emporarily reducing the specie reserve in that esta blishment. The Pera, which leaves on the 20th inst., has in `specie £215,621, of which £32,220 is gold and the rest silver. The following are the particulars : for Alexandria, gold, £5,000; for Mauritius, gold, 20,000 ; for Ceylon, gold, £3,243 ; and silver, £ 4 10; for Madras, silver, £9,970; and gold, £ 3 ,977 ; for Penang, silver, £l,OOO ; for Singapore, silver, £4,500 ; for Hong Kong, silver, £74,600; for Poo-Choo Foo, silver, £3,025 ; and for Shang bae, silver, £89,896. The stoppage is announced of Messrs. John Ma son and Co., wholesale tea dealers, of Hull, a firm of respectable standing. There is a rumour that the estate will not yield more than about 9s. in the pound. The Madras Railway Company have paid into the Bank of England since the 31st ultimo, to the credit' of the Secretary of State for India in Council, the further sum of £137,700 on account of the fitth 'extens'or. capital of the company, making, with the previous payments, a total of £306,070 paid in on lois account. CITY NEWS---THIS DAIL TWELVE O'CLOCK._ There is no alteration today in the demand for money,or the terms upon which it is supplied. The joint stock and private establishments, by ask ing full rates for the accommodation they afford, are inducing a large portion of the mercantile com munity to take their securities to the Bank of Eng land. There is an increase of £956 in the traffic re ceipts of the Brighton Railway, and of £3,226 on th e South Eastern for the past week. Business in the Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets during the last few days has been rather inactive. Sugars in some instances have slightly de clined, but coffee is held for full rates. In tea only limited transactions have been recorded owing to the near approach of the public sales which com mence on the 21st inst. Rice has been in better request at enhanced quotations, while a steady de- Taand has been experienced for spices and saltpetre. Tallow has continued dull at 48s. 3d. per cwt. on the spot, and 50s. for last three month's delivery. The interest on Danish 4 per Cent. Bonds will be • Paid on and after the Ist proximo.

OLD COURT. (Before the Common Sergeant.) Charles West pleaded guilty to a charge of stealing a diamond ring, the property of Mr, Cockayne, jeweller, Fenchurch.street. The prisoner went into the shop and asked to look at some rings, and after examining them he left the shop stat ing that he would return again. As he was leaving the shop the assistant noticed a common paste ring lying tray, which had been su b s tit uted for a genuine one, va l ue d at about £B. in the Mr. Pater asked that sentence might be deferred, in order that the prisoner might give information that perhaps would lead to the recovery of the property. The application was granted. Thomas Harrison, a traveller, pleaded guilty to a charge of stealing 20 yards of silk, the property of Messrs. Ellis. The prisoner was in the habit of calling for orders at the warehouse of the prosecutor for fancy boxes, and from time to time the goods were carried from the stock. The prisoner was watched and seen to purloin the goods in question. Mr. Sleigh in defence, said the prisoner had previously borne an exceedingly good character. The Common Serjeant, in passing sentence, said that the worst feature in the case was that other persons in the prosecutor's employ might be suspected of the robbery. He then ordered him 12 months' imprisonment with hard labour. Alexander M'Bride, warehouseman, pleaded guilty to an indictment charging him with stealing 112 yards of silk, value £22, and 92 yards of silk velvet, value £2O, with other goods, the property of his employers, Messrs. Morri . son and Co. The Common Serjeant sentenced him to six years' penal servitude. NEW COURT. (Before Mr. Commissioner Kerr.) George Brown pleaded guilty to an indictment charging him with uttering base coin. Brennan, the officer attached to the Mint, said the pri soner was one of the most notorious "smashers" he had ever known. He had already undergone a sentence of six years' penal servitude, yet immediately he came out of pri son he resumed his old occupation of passing bad money. Mr. Commissioner Kerr said the prisoner seemed deter mined that no amount of punishment should deter him from pursuing his nefarious practices. At all events he would prevent him carrying it on for some years to come. He then sentenced him to be kept in penal servitude fir the term of 15 years. POLICE-THIS DAY. MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

Daws, the keeper of a beer-shop at 20, Hertford-street, Fitzroy-square, was charged with re ceiving a quantity of property supposed to be the produce of a robbery, and Stephen Galvin, John Stroud, Wre. Galvin, and Henry Gerrard, lads, were charged with stealing a quantity of boots, a portion of which were found at the first prisoner's beer-shop. Mr. John Banyerfield, bootmaker, of 1, Upper Rathbone• place, said he went to his shop and found the door un locked, and a lot of boots and shoes gone. He searched the place but found no one there, and went to bed, but afterwards heard some one in the house. On making an examination of the premises he found that a padlock had been taken off the front door, and Gerrard was in the pas sage and said be had been pushed in by two men. He then gave him in charge. The 15 pairs of boots and shoes pro duced were hie property. Sergeant Ellis Davis, 11 E, said he went to No. 20, Hert ford-street, a beer shop, kept by the prisoner Daws, and asked him it some boots had been left there. After a little hesitation he said " Yes.' Inside the parlour he (the ser geant) found 12 pairs, some under the table. He then asked him if he had a man named Cole living there, and he said he thought not, but afterwards said the boots were left there by Cole. He (the sergeant) then took him to the station, and afterwards searched the place, and found a quantity of other property in the house. Reilly, 115 E, said he went to St. Pancras-street, and found the two Galvins Mad Stroud in bed. There were three pairs of new boots in the room, with a little dirt on them. The lads said they bought the boots of a man in Fitzroy-market. _ . Wm. Galvin said he bought them of a man named Cole in Daws' house. The other prisoners said they also bought the boots found with them. SPORTJNU---THIS DAY. TX ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH. YORK RACES-THIS DAY. ZETLAND STAKES, Fig Cheerful Crusade Six ran. LATEST BETTING.

This morning a grand fete, in connection with "The Ancient Order of Foresters," was commenced at the Crystal Palace, several thousands of whom flocked into the grounds as soon as the gates were opened. The " Foresters," with the " Shepherds" and other orders, with Worthy Grands," "Rangers," "Deputy Rangers," and like officers, proceeded through the metropolis in vans, and every other description of carriage, while others more ambitious went on foot. The majority of them were dressed in green velvet coats, buff leather boots, and large -brimmed beaver hats, in which were enormous plumes of ostrich feathers. Some of them detracted from the imposing appearance by smoking short pipes, which subjected them to a considerable number of jocular remarks from the other pedestrians, many being asked the question of whether he was the man who was to be wheeled along the rope by Blondin. They took the whole of the remarks with good humour, all being seem ingly intent to pass a pleasant day, and not to have their tempers disturbed. It is exp ec t ed that there will be upwar d s o f a h un dred thousand pala of the f raternity present i n th e grou nds of the number o f excurs i on t ra i n s arrived at the differentffe e r r ; a railway a ailway stati ons in the metropo li s a ll fill e d with rie forester s " en route for the great meeting at Syden hmam. LONDON, TILBURY, AND soUTHEND RAILWAY. lIALF-YEARLY MEETIN G ' — THIS DAY. The ordinary ha'f-yearly meeting of the directors and shareholders of this company was held to-day at the Lon don Tavern. J. M, Daniell, Esq., presided. The report, which has already appeared in The Sun, having been taken as read, The CHAIRMAN proceeded to move its adoption by the meeting. The total capital received amounted to £500,6 9 8 10s., and the capital expended was £794,244 ss. 4d. The gross receipts, from the statement furnished by the lessees of the line, had amounted to £21,711 195., and the expendi ture to £15,689 ss. 5d., leaving a balance of £6,022 13s. 7d. The present was the first opportunity that had presented itself for the meeting of the proprietors under their new constitution, and he had to congratulate them on the occa sion. The traffic on the line was nearly the same as last year ; and this circumstance was of itself highly satisfactory when the travellers on other lines had fallen off. At Bow and Barking the elements of traffic were especially good, while at Southend the building of houses and other circumstances combined to render their prospects for the future highly encouraging. The motion having been seconded, A PROPRIBTOR urged upon the directors the necessity of making some better accommodation at Fenchurch-street for those who wished to travel on their line. On Saturdays and Sundays it was next to an impossibility for a lady to obtain a ticket without having her clothes torn from her back. The CHAIRMAN said he wished the accommodation at Fenchurch-street was larger and better, but all had been done that could be done with the limited space at their com mand. It no doubt could be improved, but then some of the adjoining property would have to be purchased by the proprietors. Another PROPRIETOR complained of the bad state of the first-class carriages. The CHAIRMAN said the complaint should be most certainly attended to. The motion far the report was agreed to. The retiring auditors having been re-elected, the pro ceedings terminated with a vote of thanks to the chairman. BUFFALO AND LAKE BU_RON RAILWAY COMPANY. HALF-YEARLY MEETING—THIS DAY.

CAUTION TO OMNIBUS DRIVERS. —Thomas Thomas, omnibus driver 15,531, was charged, at the instance of Mr. William Love, chief officer of the Society for the Preven tion of Cruelty to Animals, as follows : George Choyce, one of the Royal Society's officers, proved seeing the defendant driving a pair of horses attached to an omnibus in Piccadilly. Observing one of the horses pulling sideways as if flinching from the collar, he went after the omnibus and stopped it, and then exa mined the horse, when he found several wounds on it—one of them under the collar, which was pressing into it, and evidently causing the horse great pain. He also found one of the wounds had been smeared over with some composi tion, as if to screen it. Defendant said the reason why the horse was pulling sideways was because it was going down hill. He was aware there was one wound. Mr. Tyrwhitt—Not one, but several. Choyce said the defendant said his master was aware of it, but that it was not so bad when he brought it out. Mr. Tyrwhitt fined the defendant 10s. or a month, and said the master ought to be punished also. WESTMINSTER. AN AREA SNEAK.—A dirty .looking fellow, named John Venan, was charged under the following circumstances : William Garrard, butler, to Mr. William Elliott, 31, Belgrave-square, said that yesterday afternoon, about 4 o'clock, he was in the plate •loset in his master's house when he heard a noise as of something jingling against the pantry window. He ran out and immediately missed three hair-brushes which he had just washed and placed in the pantry window to dry. Ascending the area steps he saw the prisoner standing at the top and asked if he had seen anyone come up the area with the stolen property. Accused replied that he had seen a man come up with a basket, and go down another area. At witness's request he accompanied him to 28, in the same square,and,on asking the housekeeper, she said no one had been down there. Feeling convinced that the prisoner was the thief, witness said he should give him into custody, upon which the accused denied all know ledge of the robbery, and evinced a strong desire to go away as he had important business to attend to. Witness said he should follow him, and while he was waiting for his hat the prisoner produced the brushes, one after the other, and hoped the butler would be satisfied, to which witness replied, he would be satisfied when he had handed him over to the police, which he did when he saw a constable. Thomas Charman, 243 A, having proved the apprehen sion of the accused, said he knew nothing of him. Prisoner, who made no answer to the charge, was re manded for inquiry into his previous character.

TEA.—The market has been dull owing to the near ap proach of the public sales, which are announced to com mence on the 21st inst. SUGAR.—Business has been rather dull, but good and fine qualities of British West India maintain previous rates, inferior descriptions of Foreign, however, are a shade cheaper. In the refined market the operations are not very extensive, but prices are steadily maintained. COFFER—There has been a fair demand for good and fine descriptions of Plantation Ceylon, at full quotations. RICE.—The demand for exportation has slightly in creased, and, in some instances, enhanced prices have been offered for good and fine qualities of East India. SALTPETRE. —A moderate amount of business has been done, but the high rates demanded by holders has some what retarded operations for both home consumption and for exportation. TALLOW.—The market -has continued dull, without, however, any material alteration in values. P.y.c., on the spot, is quoted 48s 3d, and last three months 60s per cwt.

As a pro of of the g reat scarcit y of grouse, we may in this one s t a te the remarkab le fact that there w as not:a single head of of the dealers on ly received about half- a-dozen brace, instead of his cus tomary 50 or 6 0 brac e, and y esterda y o nly added about four b r ace to his list of a rrivals.

The result was that grouse were quoted at 8s or 9s a brace. From the Castlecarrock moors we hear that " the birds were nearly all drowned." On the 12th, one or two gentlemen only bagged half-a-dozen brace, while some other sportsmen on the same fell only shot a brace and a half; and Mr. Marshall, M.P., and party, mustering s ix guns, succeeded in killing 38 b r ace before lunch-time on Lord Carlisle's manors and Paddaburn. These ar e all the exploits by "flood and fel l" of which we have received reports. As to pro s p ect s , we fear the accoun t of deserted moors is still more be gg arl y . T here ar e ver y few black -game, ma ny old hens being seen without a single young one in Partridges will also be scarce instancesbroods only numbering three or four strong, and in some we hear a nests still sittingt—Carlisle jinfrnat. The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report, referred at some length to the document, which stated that the revenue of the half. year has been greater than at any precious period, showing a gross receipt of 243,435 dols. 54c. ; a result attributable to the abundant harvest in Canada and the Western States. With the aid of loans from some of the proprietors on the securities of the com pany in its possession, and with a remittance from Canada of £6.000, the directors have been enabled to meet all the engagements of the company to this date. At the adjourned meeting of this company in November, and since the publication of the last half-yearly report, the proprietors were apprised that negotiations, authorised by the respective boards, had been initiated, having for their object the joint working of the Grand Trunk, the Great I Western, and the Buffalo and Lake Huron Railways. The directors have to express their regret that they cannot an nounce the conclusion of any complete agreement. G.R.EA T LUXEMBOURG _RAILWAY MEETING—(THIS DAY). The ordinary general meeting of this company washeld:at the London Tavern to-day, for the purpose of taking into consideration an agreement with the Belgian Government by which the Great Luxembourg undertake to construct a railway from the City of Liege to Aye, and for the purpose of raising additional capital. The proposals of the directors were agreed to. ROYAL CREMORNE GARDENS. A dry day, though not a very summer-like one, and the first balloon ascent of the season brought together last evening, at these gardens, a large number of country as well as town visitors, The Prince of Wales was selected for the occasion, as partial ascents were intended to be taken, as well as the grand ascent. The afternoon and evening being very calm favoured this intention, and enabled Chambers, the veteran aeronaut, to afford to large numbers of young people a bird's• eye view of Battersea, the Thames, Chelsea, Bromp ton, and the International Exhibition. This balloon was filled at an early hour, and the first ascent was made with a portion of Hawke's military band. This merry commencement of a new feature had an extra ordinary effect upon some hitherto timid visitors, who pressed forward each anxious to have a share in the aerial amusement of the day, and as long as the allotted time per mitted none were disappointed. The grand ascent took place punctually at the advertised time, a quarter to seven, and was, perhaps, as interesting a one as ever took place at Cremorne. To give our readers some idea of the peculiarity of the as cent, it may be sufficient to say that it occupied upwards of an hour, during which time the balloon drifted to every point of the compass, crossing the Thames three times and return ing after about 20 minutes' interval, and floated over the exact spot she was started from. Indeed it was expected that Chambers would have brought her down in the gar dens, but a fresh current of air arising carried her away over Wandsworth-common, in the neighbourhood of which a descent was made. The gardens were very crowded. An interesting aquatic fete it seems is to take place on Thursday, with a grand pyrotechnic display from steam boats and from the esplanade. SHIPPING---THIS DAY.

GREAT FLOOD IN THE TWEED AT BERWICK.— On Friday last there was such a "fresh" in the river at Berwick as is seldom seen, in consequence of the rains of the previous Thursday. Many of the boatmen, warned of the approaching rise, had secured their boats but a good many left unsecured were carried to sea and destroyed. All the haughs and low-lying districts in the river's course were flooded, and everything movable was carried along with the current, including sheep, pigs ; cattle, immense quantities of hay, and a gig was also reported to have been seen in the aaZiti lost, little water. Many of these articles were carried tocosrap e but at the time of full tide on Friday, W h en a iost, little stream was running, several parties with boats and tackle succeeded in landing some of the large hay ricks at Tweedmouth. Connected with the ha ricks on their pas sage down the river it was not a Ede. curious to witness numbers of rats and other vermin m omentarily coming to the roof of their abode and scanning them, and then, as if af ra id of ththe wild scen e before eir position, immediate/91 dart under cover.—Berwi c k 4 fkutiier, The most important of the two year old races is the Seventh North of England Biennial, in which the immense number of 75 youngsters are engaged. Of these, 21 only have yet run, the majority of them with very indifferent success, as the only horses which have won are the colt by Windhound out of Elcot's dam, Formidable, Le Marechal, Abernethy, Fanfaron, Old Orange Girl, National Guard, King of Utopia, and Zapateado, and that any one of them is entitled to a first-class certificate I much question, Among the dark horses are four which have been already backed pretty heavily for the Derby, namely, Michael Scott (own Brother to Wizard) ; Avenger, by Vindes out of Eastern Princess's dam; Trojanus, by Fandango out of Troica, by Lanercost ; and Muffler, by Fazzoletto out of Caricature, only the first and third named of which are likely to run. None of the winners abovenamed will have to carry anything additional, the amount won by them being below the specified sum (£500), whereby they would have incurred a penalty of £5; but they, as well as the dark division, w:11 nevertheless run on worse terms with the beaten horses, an allowance which will hardly in duce many of the latter to take a trip to York, so indifferent have been their several performances. With such means of trying as John Scott possesses through Orange Girl, Lord Stamford through Livingstone, Lord Uxbridge through General Hess, and Mr. Bruce through the tackle which found out Lord Clifden, none of them ought to make any mistake. The two-yr-olds engaged in the Prince of Wales's Stakes are for the most part "dark," as only Escape, Lorette Lady Louisa, Ennerdale, Miss Armstrong, and the filly by Loup •Garou have as yet been in public, the three former successfully, for which each is penalised, Escape and Loretto 51b, and Lady Louisa 71b, having won twice. Lord Stamford's Somerled is engaged, but m ill not run. The Rawcliffe Stakes - must fall to either Pratique or Cerintha, as Lord Clifden will be reserved for the Cham pagne Stakes at Doncaster. The Filly Sapling must be carried off by Lady Augusta; the Ebor St. Leger by Lord Glasgow's colt by Barbatus out of Clarissa; the Hopeful by St. Alexis, and the 500 match by Santhal. The list for the last day is of the same extent as for the first—tleven races—which will necessitate an early com mencement to enable the company to commence their jour ney homeward on the same afternoon. The Great York shire Stakes, usually the most interesting item in the after noon's sport, will not on this occasion excite much curiosity, as its result cannot affect the St. Leger betting, owing to none of the " cracks" being engaged. Those from whom the field is sure to be selected are Zetland, Neptunus, Town Councillor (or Haddington), Vanguard, Bonny Breastknot. Scandal, North Pole, Harlequin, and Picador (cr Gari baldi), and it needs no sorcerer to point out Zetland as the certain winner. The Cup, in which aro entered nearly all the best horses of the day, needs no lengthened discussion, as.it seems to me, owing to Zetland having a better engagement on the same day, to be reduced to a certainty for Carbineer, as he alone, save Ivanhoff, is the only horse that ever fairly buckled Tim Whiffler.

' There are ten raccs set for decision to-morrow, including 1 the Great Ebor Handicap, the North of England Biennial for two year olds, the Prince of Wales Stakes, and two other two year old races. The entries fur the Great Ebor were not so numerous by 10 as last year, but, all things considered, it seems a pretty fair acceptance when 27 stood out of the 64 horses weighted. No very large field need, however, be expected to run, as the following stables have two representatives :—Whitewall, C ape Flyaway and Q. E. D. ; Mr. Saxon's, The Monk and Bally Edmond • Col. Towneley's, Doefoot, and H u b ert ; Lord Glase- o ae.: The Drake and black mare by Voltigeur out of Mak-eless- Godding's, Laughing Stock and Fitz-Eva; while the vete: ran trainer of Ashgill has no fewer than five in his charg e , viz,, Lady Trespass, Viscount Brignall, Springwell, York minster, and King of Kars. The weights remain in state quo, consequent on Ivanhoff, who carries the statutable weight of Bst 121 b, accepting, and though his impost ap pears heavy for a four year old, he is not unfavourably i n , considering that he beat Tim Whiffler at Manchester, giving him 181 b, which is like putting the Goodwood Cup winner in hero with 7st lib, or 41b more than Carisbrook, a weight Tim would doubtless carry to the goal successfully were he engaged. From the state Fairwater was in at Goodwood, she cannot now be fit; besides, taking the line through Tim Whiffler, it is not on the cards for her to beat Ivanhoff. Flyaway, it will be recollected, carried Bst 71b for this event last year, and ran a fair third to Rising Sun and Lady Tres pass, giving them respectively 121 b and 51b, and he now has to carry only Bst 91b, or equal weights with the latter, which insures his beating Mr. Hudson's mare. Moreover, it must be borne in mind that neither Bally Edmond nor Virgilius had then any chance with him, though they re ceived 261 b and 311 b respectively, from which it must be inferred that none of the 3-yr-olds can now beat him. That Lord Derby's horse has retained his form this year was proved at the York Spring Meeting by his beating Virgi line, Lady Ripon, and some others in a canter, and later by his performance at Nottingham, where, though he failed to pull through, it must be recollected that he was giving Atherstone, who has shown the best handicap form of the year, no less than 131 b, which, over so trying a course, was not to be done with impunity. The Monk being engaged \ in the Chesterfield, he will probably take his chance for that race, and leave his master's interest to the care of Bally Edmond, who being bred both by sire and dam — Bantam and Chaseaway—to stay, must have a great chance, aompared with the top weighted horses, he carries no mle than a 3-yr-old weight. Doefoot is rumoured to be "off," and Dulcibella cut such a bad figure at Stamford, that, if her running there was correct, she can have no chance. Carisbrook got at Liverpool more than a 51b beating from Fairwater; he consequently cannot beat Ivanhoff, who can surely give 31b to Mr. Cartwright's filly. Schism's day is past, and Watchfire, independent of his not being within llb as good as Carisbrook, cannot hope to beat Q. E. D., giving her 191 b, when at Goodwood all he could do was to beat her at the difference for sex, and would not even have succeeded in doing that had not Ald croft been disappointed. If Viscount Brignall failed to show any form in Reeves' hands at Epsom, he won't be improved by g a ll op i ng on either the high or the low moor at Middleha m . C onundrum and the Drake are both troubled with the slows. Springwell was once good, but so few patched up horses ever retain their action, it will be as well to leave him alone till seen at the post. Laughing Stock cannot beat his stable companion Fitz- Eva, who being so much better in here than at Wolver hampton, where his stable companion Millionaire did duty, may get a place. Yorkminster c anno t complain of his im post, but is all to pieces. Makeless has often been as favour ably weighted as now without distinguishing himself. Neither Rufus nor Dorking has ever shown himself to be worth much, but I am told the former will run well. Q. E. D.'s form, judging through her performance with Watchfire, is not good enough to pull through such a race as this. Pembroke has incurred a 101 b penalty, but even with that he is almost certain to be one of the first three, if not the actual winner. The winner, I have no doubt, will be CAPE FLYAWAY. THE FE.TIALE BLONDIN. It will be satisfactory to learn that Miss Young, "the Female Bloudin," is not so seriously hurt as was at first feared. On inquiring at St. Bartholomew's Hospital this morning, it was ascertained that the unfortunate woman's thi gh was severely fractured, and some injury had been done to the left shoulder, but not of such a nature a s to preclude the use of the arm. The fears relative to some injury having been sustained in the neck have most fortu nately proved groundless, At present the sufferer is pro.- zressilag most favourably, The autumnal inspection of the several divisions of Royal Marine Light Infantry commenced at Chat ham yesterday by Major-Gen. A. B. Stransham, 1 the inspector -general of that branch of the service. The entire division, which is just now unusually I strong, numbering some 1,250 mcn of all ranks, with about 50 staff and other officers, was under arms at an early hour, and at a few minutes after 9 o'clock Major-Gen. Stransham, accompanied by his aide-de-camp, Capt. J. C. Travers, arrived at the Royal Marine Barracks, where he was received by Col. T. Lemon, C. 8., commandant of the division. Col, W. H. March, second commandant, and the se veral officers of the Staff attached to headquarters, were in waiting to receive him. On arriving in the parade-ground, the inspector -general proceeded at once to make a minute inspection of each man's kit and accoutrements, a prcceeding which occupied a considerable time. The battalion was then dismissed, and the remainder of the morning devoted to the inspection of the barrack-rooms, offices, library, non commissioned officers' mess-rooms, and other por tions of the barracks, General Stransham also visit ing the site on which the new barrack buildings for the accommodation of 700 additional officers and men are now under construction. At 2 o'clock the battalion was again drawn up in the barrach square, and each man supplied with 15 rounds of blank cartridge, with 20 rounds for the flank com panies, after which the division was marched to the Great Lines, where, under the command of Colonel Lemon, the officers and men were put through an extended course of light infantry and battalion movements, all of which were directed by General Stransham. The division acquitted itself in a man ner which elicited repeated commendatory remarks from the Inspector-General. The battalion returned to headquarters late in the afternoon, and the in spection of the division will be resumed to-day. In consequence of the decrease of the number of troops of the line at Chatham garrison, caused by the numerous reinforcements despatched to India, orders were yesterday received for the Royal Marines to furnish th e guar d and other detachments at tilpe portableno r Castle s t u e n a t m i l tfruarvt eihn plied to Chatham dockyard by Messrs.

POLICE ESPIONAGE.—The following is from the ( Cork Examiner:—Sub -eonstable Tracy, of Goleen, charged a woman named Harrington, of Toormore, with selling whisky without being duly licensed. Sub-constable Donnelly stated that he went twice to serve the summons to the door. The court ruled that that service could not hold, and the case was allowed to drop. In reply to Mr. Netter, the complainant said he was not on duty when he went into the woman's h o use, and was in plain clothes. Mr. Davys—Was it yourself got the whisky ? iTracy—lt was sir. I got private i n formation. Defendant's daughter— He said, your honour, that he was the priest's brother, and that he was very dry; only for that he would not get it at all. (Laughter.) Mr. Davys—l protest altogether against a policeman discharging his duty in that manner. It show, a want of good faith, and it is an act of low chi canry to thus get up a prosecution. lam quite opposed to their doing so. There should be a good feeling between the people and t h e police, and then there would b e mutual respect. It is the object of the magistrates to establish and encourage suc h feeling. Now, this was not th e way to do it. A man goe s in plain clothes, gets the whisky, drinks it, an d then turns round andi nstitutes a prosecution. police; m an—lt is very ofte n d one, sir. Mr. DavYs—'Q"— proceedings would b e p er f ectly justifiable in cases a warder, or in detecting culprits charged with serious crimes; but here I say it was wrong, and I will not counten.ance such_ acts of low cunnin g. with what fell, f x -rota wk.

Letters received at Chatham yesterday from the North American Squadron, dated Halifax, Aug. 7, give the following vessels at that harbour at the de parture of the mail—viz., the Nile, 90, 500 horse power, flagship of Rear -Admiral Sir A. Milne, 1i.C.8., Commander-in-Chief; the Hero, 89, 600 horse power, Captain A. P. Ryder ; the Cadmus, 21, 400 horse power, Commander J. F. Ross, acting captain; the Rinaldo, 17, 200 horse power, Com mander W. N. W. Hewett; the Barracouta, 6, 300 horse power, Commander G. J. Malcolm; the Medea, 6, 350 horse power, Commander D. S. Preston, and the Nimble, 5, 80 horse power, LieutfCommander J. Darey, `The Cadmus returned to Halifax from St. John's, Newfoundland, on the day before the departure of the mail, Acting Captain J. F. Ross having joined that ship at the latter port from the Desperate, 7, in() horse power, Commander Thrupp. The Cygnet, 5,80 horse power, Licut.-Commanuer de Elan tzow, left St. John's, N. 8., on the Ist inst., for Forteau, Labrador. The Desperate, 7, took her departure from St. John's, Newfoundland, on the Ist inst., with Mr. Pesley and secretary on board, who are on a tour of inspection of the fisheries. The Cadmus was to leave Halifax for Bermuda,and thence to Fort Monroe, on the 9th lest. The model of the fixed cupola and armour-plated ship, invented by Mi. Turner, master shipwright of Woolwich docky ar d,h as b een inspected and approved by numbers of the leading private firms. Yesterday some of the most eminent shipbuilder s of Liverpool waited on Mr. Turne r w i t h a desire of negotiating permission to ad o pt hi s pr i nciple in ships which they are about to construct for the purposes of the American war. The single cupola to befitted on the deck of Mr. Turner's new ship will require no turn - table or other machinery, and will contain 26 guns capable of being fired at any required point or de flection, with sufficient space for free circulation of the gunners. It is 220 ft. in length,loft. in depth,and 50ft. in breadth. The armour proof plates will be ap, plied by a patent invention of Mr. Turnees,requirin g neither grooves nor tongues, and will be removable singly in case of fracture or damage, and also easily replaced. The Board of Admiralty, who inspected the model on their visit to the dockyard a few days ago, have called on Mr. Turner to furnish specifica tions of his method for their consideration. His Royal Highness Prince Adalbert, Admiral of the Prussian fleeL„ has also ordered draughts of the model to be transmitted to him for the service of his own country. The ship to be built after Mr. Turner's design will carry 8,700 tons displacement burden, and will be a most formidable ram, having a power ful weapon of Bft. in length projecting 3ft. under the water line. Precautions are adopted to have her rudder, stern post, and propeller thoroughly im mersed, and consequently out of tte reach of damage from without. A portion of the midships plating for the now 50 gun ship Caledonia, under construction in Woolwich dockysrd, arrived yesterday from Mr. Brown, of of 20 plates, weighi ng a b out 90 tons. consisting .d Yeshamterdayr M. r t . o L g a e n t r m w a i s t t h e r s s o h m i p e bu of i t l d h e e r s t a a t ff C f h r o a m t - that establishment, proceeded to Shoeburyness to superintend the necessary preparations for the erec tion of the iron plated target now under constrtge tion at Chatham, to be used in the fortheominrg ex periments with the monster Horsfall gun s which was unshipped at Chatham on Saturday.
