During the last few days there has been less activity in the markets for foreign and colonial produce. Sugars maintained their previous values, and full prices were readily obtained for coffee. Rice has been dull, with a downward tendency in value. In fruit, saltpetre, and spices, only a limited business has been transacted, without producing any material alteration in quotations. For tallow .here has been a moderate inquiry for present de- livery, at steady rates, and the tone of the market has been firmer ; and, notwithstanding the heavy arrivals, less disposition has been evinced on the part of holders to effect sales. P.Y.C., on the spot, and at three months, is quoted 525., and for speedy delivery 525. 9d. per cwt. In the Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday, a large amount of business was recorded, and prices exhibited a slight advance. The sales were esti mated at 15,000 bales. Notice has been given by the Spanish Financial Commission that the auction of the Foreign Re deemable Debt will take place at Madrid on the 29th inst., for which purpose the Government have assigned 986,940 reals. The steamer Delta, which leaves to-morrow, will take out £3s,Boo—viz., £35,000 in gold to Bom bay, and £BOO in gold to Alexandria. The only alteration in the Money Market is a slightly increased demand, which, however, has not been sufficient to create an active business. There is still only a limited enquiry for commercial pur poses; trade, although presenting some indications of improvement, still being in a quiescent state. Bankers and brokers are negotiating first-class bills on lower terms, but they are exceedingly cautious, owing to the late failures, and the doubt still en tertained respecting the stability of credit in certain departments of business. Owing to the limited demand for gold on Conti nental account the American and Australian re mittances are mostly retained in this country, and frequent additions are consequently made to the stock of bullion in the Bank of England. A further parcel comprising about £64,000 was received there yesterday, and from the position of the ex changes it may be inferred that an important accu mulation will take place before the October divi dends become due, when a temporary reaction may be expected from the usual increase in the circula tion of coin. There has been a very quiet market for Public Securities to-day, but the quotations have been well maintained. At first the tendency seemed un favourable. but rather more firmness is now exhi bited, Consols being 931 1 for money, and 931 for the account. The New 3 per Cents. are heavy at 931 ; India Stock is 210, and ditto New Loan is steady at 103-Z ; ditto 5 per Cent. Enfaced Paper at 961 ; and ditto 51 per Cent. has receded to 1021 and Exchequer Bills remain at par to 3s. prem. Foreign Securities have been dealt in to a mode-; rate extent, and prices show no material alteration; Turkish 6 per Cents. are 731 74 ; ditto New, 571 4 ; Brazilian 41 per Cents. are steady at 87 4; Buenos Ayres have improved to 98 ; but Venezuelan 3 per Cents. are heavy at 23 ; and Mexican at 211 . Chilian 44 per Cents. nre marked 821; and Porte guese, 43144. The Ocean Marine Insurance Company's shares are to 24- pm. ; the Thames and Mersey, t pm. ; and the Universal, g 1 pm. The Railway Share Market has been moderately active ; prices, however, appear heavy. Caledo nian, London and Blackwall, Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincoln, and South-Eastern declined ss. Brighton, 155.; Lancashire and Yorkshire, and South-Western, advanced 55.; and Great Western, 10s. The Foreign lines continue depressed. South Austrian and Lombardo-Venetian have receded to lin. In the Colonial Market Great Western of Canada have improved to 131, East Indian to 100, and Great Indian Peninsula to NI. Joist Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares are a shade firmer. London and Westminster realise 58-1-; London and County, 351; Bank of Egypt, 201 ; Ottoman Bank, 17. Peel River Land have declined to 471, and Peninsula and Oriental Steam New Shares to 374 38.

Tha discovery of silver, lead, and copper mines in British Columbia, reported in the American advices of yesterday, is stated to have been made on the Lower Frazer River, and also further in the interior. The silver ore is alleged to contain 5 per cent. of silver, and mines of copper "in blocks too large for removal," and equal to those on Lake Superior, are also described. In succeeding accounts these statements will pe r h a p s d w i n dle to the point at which it is "doubtful if the lodes will pay for working." M. EDWIN JAMES.—The trip of Mr. E. James to Southern Italy continues to occupy the attentionof some forei gn j ournals, which, in spite of t h e contra dictions that have reached them from your side of the Channel, pest in believin g th a t h e h as gone on a m i ss i on f rom th e .14ritish Government to Garibaldi.

THE BURGLARIES IN WHITSCHIPEL.—Thomas Ryan, of no fixed residence, was charged before Mr. Selfe with being on the roof of the premises of Mr. Home, Leman street, Whitechapel, supposed for the purpose of committing a felony. The prosecutor stated that about two o'clock that morn ing while in bed he heard some one trying his bedroom door. He got up and put a chair against it, upon having done which the prisoner ran away. His wife called out " Police," and upon her looking out of a window she saw a policeman on the roof of the house. The prisoner was afterwards taken into custody. _ In answer to Mr. Selfe, prosecutor stated that the police got into the house by a window adjoining the roof of the water-closet, which he believed had been left open: Mr. Mitchell, the vestry clerk, of Whitechapel, 'said that in consequence of the complaints of burglaries in that parish, he was directed to prosecute in all charges of bur glary. He should, therefore, in this case ask for his com mittal on the charge of burglary. Mr. Selfe observed that in this case there did not appear to be any breaking entry which constituted a burglary, as he had entered by the window, which was open. Two policemen H 136 and 159 proved having seen the prisoner loitering about near the house of the prosecutor. He was watched, and went down Nelson-street, a thorough fare close by, when they lost sight of him. In a few mi nutes after he was heard walking along the roof, and he dropped from the roof close by where H 136 was standing. He was taken into custody after a violent struggle. The prisoners was sent for three months to the House of Correction. ALEXANDER D UMAS.—A witty writer who under the nom de guerre of Lucien Duval, furnishes the weekly Parisian chronicle to the new journal La Nouvelle, thus bewails the dullness of the time :—" The dead season is not yet near its end. All the world is everywhere, ex cept at Paris; chroniclers are in a state of despair, and find not the smallest novelty wherewith to furnish forth their feuilletons. Even the Neapolitan Revolution supplies only incidents that have been foreseen ; a strong desire not to fight appears to be the chief characteristic of the situation. M. Alexandre Dumas, pert, himself gives no signs of life. Silence on the part of such a man always indicates a very strained position. It is said that his son has gone to join him. Of those two men the most paternal in his conduct is not the one you would suppose. People de say that the arrival of the younger has sufficed to put to flight a cer tain Galatea of whom the papers have taken much more notice than was reasonable. The two Dumas are summoned, it is said, to edit a Garibaldian journal, under a title which was, a very long time ago, that of the Constitutionnel, the Independant. A great deal will be said in it about M. Dumas, pert; more than one ingenious allusion will be made to his high birth, as well as to the immense influence he possesses over the minds of nations." FRENCH NATIONAL SHOOTING COMPETITION. — The Moniteur, in its non-official section, announces that the Emperor has authorised the establishment of a national tir, or shooting competition, the project of which has been pre paring at the Ministry of War since the month of January last. It will take place in the wood of Vincennes, and will commence annually at the period of the fetes of the 15th of August. This year, by exception, it will open on the 30th of September. Numerous workmen are now getting the ground ready. There will be 44 targets, to which French men and foreigners will alike be admitted with all sorts of arms (artnes de guerre, de chase, et de precision) ; six other targets will be reserved for the National Guard and the army, two others for pistol-shooting, and two for bow and arrow. There will be a grand prize of 10,000 f. ; the list of the other prizes will be immediately published, as well as that of private individuals, intended to increase the number of prizes and to encourage so eminently patriotic an insti tution. THE ORLEANS RAILWAY COMPANY.—This WM pany is actively engaged in executing another railway from Paris to Tours, through Chateaudun, Vendome, and Cha teau Renault. On Saturday the chief engineer laid out the ground at Chateau Renault for the terminus. The follow ing are some details relative to the magnificent iron bridge thrown over the river Garonne at Bordeaux to unite the Orleans with the Bordeaux and Cette Railway :—The dif ficulty consisted in giving a passage to a locomotive over a river 500 metres wide, subject to the double influence of a direct current of nearly three metres the second, and a re flux, which is perceptible as far as Laugon, 10 leagues above Bordeaux. The depth of the river is from Bto 12 metres. The works were begun in May, 1858, and completed towards the end of August last, a period of two years and three months. To judge of the merit of the work, it must be recollected that the celebrated stone bridge at Bordeaux cost 20,000,000 f., and took a period of 11 years for its con struction, while the new bridge cost but 3,000,000 f. A GRATEFUL OFFERING.—A benevolent lady, observing a few days ago the excellent style with which the Lytham lifeboat on the Lancashire coast.was launched and proceeded off on her quarterly exercise, decided on pre senting to the National Lifeboat Institution £lOO in testy ' mony of her appreciation of the institution's philanthropic objects. During last winter the Lytham lifeboat was in strumental in gales of wind in saving life from the follow ing wrecks :—Schooner E. D., of Salcombe, 5 men ' • brigan tine Robert and Henry, of Dundalk, 6 men ; from the brigantine Hannah Jane, of London, 7 men ; and from the brigantine Nancy, of Teignmouth, 8 men and a --;boy making a total of 27 shipwrecked persons rescued b y thi s valuable lifeboat from a watery grave. The lifeboat was also put off and assisted in bringing safely into port two disabled vessels, with their valuable cargoes, besides havingo gone off once or twice in reply to signals of distress sa fr o m ships. The neighbouring lifeboat at Fleetwood h sonsbeen, in du v tl .y ng h th ea e vy pr s e t e o e r n m t s ye fr a o r m , the th esand the Roper, of Ulverstone, Ann Mitchell, of Mon trose, Catherine, of Newry.

The schools in question, which are in the decorative Gothic style, and will accommodate 500 children, have cost £4,500. Their inauguration by the Bishop of the diocese was an occasion of great local festivity. The Italie Nouvelle of Milan states that the two campf of 60,000 men concentrated at Arezzo and Rimini are to be under the direct orders of King Victor Emmanuel. THE BAKERS' MOV EMENT. —The master bakers of Cork have not only resolved against yielding to the demand of the operatives on the subject of night work, but have de clined to enter into any communication with them on the sub • ject or to listen to the reasons which they were ready to urge in support of their demand. Such a res olution , to say the . least of it, appears ill-advised, 70j I FOREIGN BAT ,Antwerp t Rotttrdsm 1Ardenne5..............1 Bah.ezS.Fran..Lim.7 p.c. Belgian East.

John Beans pleaded guilty to an indictment charging him with stealing a quantity of lead, the property of his master. He was sentenced to six months' imprisonment. Theophilus Thomson was indicted for stealing a clock, the property of Mr. Cousins of George-street, Portman square. From the evidence it appeared the prisoner entered pro secutor's shop upon the pretext of soliciting orders for books, and on leaving he had managed to secret the clock, but the theft was discovered. He dropped the property on being taken into custody, and told the police it had been put into his hands to mind by a gentleman who was rim ning away. The jury found him guilty, and he was sentenced to nine months' imprisonment with hard labour. Thomas Allright was indicted for stealing two silver watches from a dwelling house. The evidence proved that the prisoner entered the house by means of a skeleton key, and then committed the rob bery. He was known to the police as an old offender and an associate of thieves, He was found guilty and sentenced to four years' penal servitude. James Beauley was also indicted for stealing a watch. In this instance the watch was snatched from the waist coat pocket of the prosecutor while he was Loking at a temperance society procession passing through Charing lane on the 3d inst. The jury found him guilty, and he was sentenced to 12 months' imprisonment with hard labour. Three boys, named Bush, M'Grigor, and Dormand, were indicted for stealing a quantity of tobacco, the property of Mrs. Weatherly, of Notting-hill. One of the boys, it appeared, entered the shop, and hav ing obtained possession of the property, threw it down in the street, when portions of it were seized by the other two boys, who both ran off with it in different directions. The jury found all three guilty. Judgment was deferred until some inquiry had been made about the prisoners by the police. POLICE INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAL) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. ASSAULTING ♦ WITNESS Von GIVING EVIDENCR.— Margaret Myers, a middle-aged female, was charged before Mr. Beadon with assaulting a female named Ann Jones under the following circumstances : The complainant said as she was leaving Messrs. Crosse and Blackwell's, Soho-square, where she was employed, the previous afternoon, the prisoner, who had several com panions waiting for her, came up to her and without saying a word struck her a severe blow in the face. Mr. Beadon asked the complainant whether she had given the prisoner any provocation P The complainant said she had not. She believed it was done because she had given evidence in a watch robbery in Albemarle-street. The prisoner had before called her a A lagger," (a name applied to persons who give informa ticn to the police), because she had received a reward from the owner of the watch.

Mr. Beadon said she had done worse, she had struck the complainant, and he would .order her to pay 20s. or 14 days, and he would advise her to take care what she was about. ADULTERATION OF FOOD. A circular just issued by Messrs. Joseph Travers and Sons contains the following letter from Dr. Hassan on the precautions to be taken by trades men to avoid offences against the recent Act for preventing the adulteration of articles of food or drink : " The Adulteration of Food and Drink Bill hav ing at length become iaw ' it behoves manufacturers and traders to consider how best to secure them selves under its provisions, " By the Act it is rendered illegal— " 1. To sell any article of food or drink with which, to the knowledge of the se ll er , any ingre dient or material injurious to health has been mixed. " 2. To sell as pure or unadulterated any article of food or drink which is adulterated or not pure. " The punishment for the first offence consists in the infliction of a fine not exceeding £5, while for subsequent offences it is rendered lawful for the justices to cause the offender's name, place of abode, and offence to be made public. " It is clear, therefore, that the sale of adulterated articles of consumption, whether with or without the knowledge of the seller, should be carefully avoided. But how, it will be asked, is this object to be accomplished P " It is necessary, in the first place, that manu facturers should take steps to ascertain that all articles sold or used by them are pure. This, inas much as most of their commodities are in the natu ral or raw state, it is not difficult in general to do, but, where a doubt exists, the manufacturer might secure himself by requiring from the vendor a gua rantee of purity. " The retailer, on his part, might protect him self by the observance of the following simple pre cautions : " Thus, he should never purchase manufactured articles below the prime cost of the constituent in gredients. " He should require, in all cases, a guarantee of purity from the manufacturer, and, in order to fix the responsibility still more upon him, I would advise that the retailer should sell all manufactured articles in packages bearing upon them the names of the manufacturer. Further, I recommend that a warranty of purity be printed upon the wrapper of every parcel of manufactured goods sold. This warranty world give the public confidence, because it is not probable that any one would use it as a cover for adulteration, and there is no doubt but that all warranted articles would meet with a more ready sale than those not warranted. I see no objection to manufacturers and retailers supporting their own warranty by the testimony, in the form of certificates, of scientific persons of ability and reputation. " If the precautions here suggested were observed, there would be but little fear of any proceedings being taken against any manufacturers or retail dealers under the provisions of the bill recently enacted for preventing the adulteration of articles of food and drink." The same circular also contains a number of re ports from English counties regarding the prospects of the harvest. There are six from the Northern counties, 31 from the Midland, and 15 from the Southern. They indicate, on the whole, that wheat will be a full average and of fine quality, and also that the crops of barley and oats will be satisfac tory, although the results in those cases are less uniform than in that of wheat. In many districts the yield of beans seem likely to be the best ever known. With respect to beet and turnips the ac counts are less encouraging, and potatoes are de scribed from all parts to be extremely bad. Two instances, however, are mentioned from Somerset of farms which have been entirely free from the dis ease. In both cases a large quantity of lime was laid on the land before planting. One of Messrs. Travers's correspondents refers to the crop this sea son in Canada. "In a letter," he says, " from my brother in Canada West the harvest there is stated to be extraordinary ; the barns which usually con tain all the produce are already filled, while only half is gathered in." DEATH FROM CHLOROFORM-. A most extraordinary and painful circumstance occurred to a patient named Carrell, at the Northampton Infirmary on Wedir:sday, from the administration of chloroform. Deceased had been lodging in Commercial-street, and went to the infirmary on Saturday with the determination of having a tumour taken out of his back, which had caused him annoyance for several years, and which he had been informed would some day prove fatal if allowed to take its own course. This had been repeatedly pressed upon deceased by his fellow workmen, at Mr. Mulliner's, coach-builder. UnOer these impressions the poor man went to the infir mary, where he was dieted until Wedneoday morning, and then taken to the operating room, for the purpose of having the tumour extracted. Dr. Gray and 1)r. Mash were present, to whom deceased expressed a wish that chloroform might be administered before the operation com menced. Dr. Mash did not think it necessary to use chloroform, and therefore explained to Carrell the nature of the operation, telling him that it would not be very painful nor very dangerous, but deceased still persisted in his wish. Dr. Mash therefore con sulted Dr. Ashdown (as is usual) and requested that gentleman to examine the deceased to ascertain if he was able to bear the effects of chloroform. Dr. Ashdown said there was no danger, and accordingly the house-doctor, Mr. Gray, was instructed to admi nister the anaesthetic, which he did ; the chloroform being given on a handkerchief. Its effects were soon visible upon deceased, who duly became insen sible, without anything unusual being observed, although strictly noticed. On removing him into a proper position for performing the operation it was observed that his countenance was very much changed. The suspicions of the operators were at once aroused, and immediate steps were taken for bringing the man to his senses again, instead of commencing their surgical operation. Water and other restoratives were resorted to, but all to no purpose. Artificial breathing was hen tried, but this, too, was unavailing, and after an hour's futile endeavours at restoration, the deceased was re luctantly given up as lost. An inquest was held at the Infirmary, on Thursday, before E. P. Hicks, Esq., county coroner (acting for J. Becke, Esq.), and a respectable jury, on the body.—Mary Carrell was the first to be examined, and said the deceased was her husband. His name was Patrick Carrell, a coach-smith, He was 42 years of ago. He had perceived the tumour about nine years ago, and often talked of having it taken out. It originated through a blow inflicted by a police man at Liverpool, when the deceased was under the influence of drink. He had only been in Northampton since March last. (The unfortunate woman was in tears, and appeared deeply affected.) Drs. Gray, Mash, and Ashdown were examined, all of whom stated that they had known patients to inhale double the quantity of chloroform that had been administered to deceased without any dan gerous effects resulting from its use. Every precaution had been used by them in this as in former cases, and it had been administered to hun dreds with perfect success. They could not account unt for this unusual occurrence, but had no the effects in saying that deceased had died through of chloroform. A post mortem examinationp had been made by Drs. Mash and Gray, Pr esence of se the medical staff, and it appeared g much con es returned ha bitsdecea d Hi s had been a man given to d rink brain, heart, and lungs were very very ted. a The jury, without any consultation, ver dict, "'That deceased's death wa s caused by chloro form duly administered • They also begged to state that in their opinion th e surgeons were entirely free from blame in the matter, as it appeared to them that the proper caution had been taken when administering the chloroform."— Northampton Free ,PreBa.

DEATH OF A PRISONER' _trN THE CLE.REIZr. WELL HOUSE OF CORRECTION. AN ADJOURNED INQUIRY. - Yesterday, Mr. Wakley, *Droner for West Mid dlesex, opened au inquiry in the Clerkenw ell House of Correction, on the body of Joseph Scott, .22 y earn of age, who was detained in the above-mentioned prison, on a sentence of a mm ith's hard labour, con sequent on a committal for gl tmbling. Mrs. Rosetta Scott, of Br: inch-hill, Hampstead, said-1 am the mother of tl te deceased. He has been suffering for the last tw 'o years under disease of the heart, and has conseqi tently been unable to bring in a penny. I saw h: im this day (Monday) week, when he told me he 'had been pretty well attended to in the prison, and made no com plaint against any one. He I lad been in the prison. . three weeks and a day, ai id at the time I saw him he was in the infirmary. He had a bad cough, and spat blood, and for tw , ) years had been ill. His time of release was up last Saturday, and I expected now to have had hi mat home. He was not guilty of the charge for w hich he was punished. Mr. Willi am S m i th, i n fi rt nary deputy-surgeon, said—Th e d eceased entere d t he prison on the 13th ult., and was a d m i tted to the infirmary on the 31st ult. His tim e was up on Satu N i ay l as t, b u t he diedon the previo us d ay. pneumonia and swellingHoef h t aLl . 1 ' e s e g n s suffering H e had from not been put on the wheel. The mother—He had been put o.n the wheel. Witness —Ho might have be en for an hour or two in the morning. The Coroner—Are we to interpret the sentence of hard labour, to servitude of t the wheel. Witness—Yes, if of su itablc) age. The om h s em e lothetetre(rts?othe Coroner,—Have you, sir, not seen The Coroner—That will be attended to. Witness continued—On the 14th ult. the de ceased complained of a pain i n the side, and an in quiry was made as to wheth.ttr he worked on the wheel, and I believe he did s for an hour before breakfast. The wheel did not work every day. The Coroner—Under what disease was the de ceased suffering? Witness— Inflammation of the lungs and air passages. He had also swelling of the legs. He was allowed, al.; may be seen by the book, gin, arrowroot, barley -e ~ a ter, and sherry. The Coroner (to the moths] .)—Was your son of intemperate habits ? The mi )ther—No sir ; very temperate and steady. He t( iok a little gin and water, which was advised by t he doctor. Witness—He was getting bc tter under the treat ' ment, and when I saw him, aiome days before he died, he appeared to be gettimg well. However, a relapse came on, and he died. I fully believed he would have been discharged f rom the prison. At the time of his entry there w as no distinct report entered outside as to his being ; unfit for labour. The mother—Ah, that cell c aused his death. Witness—The cell, why it i.s perfectly dry. The mother—We have had good proof that he was put on the mill. The Coroner—Why did yot t not go before a ma ' gistrate and complain,.which 3 roumight have done ? The mother—l did not kno• re what to de. A Juryman—Cannot we see the warder who was in charge of the deceased ? The Coroner—You shell see all. Witness continued—The warder is not now in the way. He has gone to his dinner, but he shall be instantly sent for. A juryman —Was the deceased put upon the wheel or not? Witness—lf on the wheel at all, it would not be more than half•an-hour. A juror —What, after being ill, :and reported as such ? Witness—l never knew that the wheel was injurious—it was a matter of exercise. The mother here made use of same explanations respecting the treatment of hor son, which the coro ner considered necessary to suppress, informing her that if she made such observations, sale would have to leave the room, as they had onl v to deal with facts. The Coroner (to wituess)--fhen this mill torture was exercised for half an hour? Witness—lf excused from the wheel, it would be put down by Mr. Wakefield. The Coroner—You see, gentlemen, in this case no post-mortem examination has been II lade, the notice referring to the death being such th a:t it was deemed. unnecessary. That, however, must now be done. A Juror—l should like to hear what the warder has to say. The Coroner—We must have more valuable tes timony than that of the warder ; for if he has done anything wrong, were he here, we could not expect him to criminate himself. At this point of the inquiry the Coroner re quested the court to be cleared of strangers, during whose absence letters were read scaowing the state of the deceased on his entry to the prison, and his innocence of the offence for which he has suffered. After which, it was decided that a post-mortem. examination should be made, a.nd three gentle men were named, residing outside tt►e prison, one of whom should perform the same. On the re-opening of the court the announce ment of an adjournment was made. ~. _ ~~.. FORE:B7 OF BOND Y. About the time, and even since the time, when Bagshot and Hounslow and Wimbledon were unsafe travelling at nights, We Forest of Bondy, at a short three leagues from Paris, was proverbial as the haunt of robbers. The French highwayman of 50 or 100 years ago does not seem to hay'? enjoyed that romantic prestige attachod to certain renowned English knights of the road. One does not read of him careering, in gallant attire and mounted on a first-rate " bit of blood," along the crown of the causeway, and, single-handed, by the terror of his name as much as by his means of offence, levying blackmail on a whole coachlo ad of travellers. No picturesque traditions attach t o him of ladies losing their hearts at the same time att their purses, er sav ing their jewels on the easy cc:volition of stepping a. minuet with him on the high road. His modus operandi was different; he lookol to substantial gains rather than to a chivalrous reputation, and bequeathed few materials to the pens of a French Bulwer or Ainsworth. While his English contemporary was the hero of a die trict and the. admiration of the fair, was sung in pop ular ballads, and almost pitied when a rope put a p e,riod adventures, he lay in wait at the a qrner to sf a than wood, and thought far more of pin der r he fre- i of generosity or fame. Of the woods d than quented not one has been more ce lebrate, found he that of Bondy. In its dense reefs!!! wail Jena shelter and impunity, and its avoided by all who had aught tole foret de Bondy - v o i s c e l . l3ll ' Y Te this .day• to say that you find yourself en thatP - you have fati en is equivalent to declaring outlaws who • a fter th e around the the place long _. uryst is a s f a s t t h the w p e r e o p s i a n i g c among thieves. A sort of cutthroat terror huts ut to flight or exterminated by fested it had been p ge - n l d 9 justice and the ar th ra c e e s nßu i civilisation of the. awa y the last vestiges of the romance of robbe r y. The heaths an d commons over which a Duval, a Turpin, and a Paul Clifford pranced •in the days of our an cestors are now secure and cockneyiied, and one would as soon expect to be stopped and .robbed in nyde-park on a summer afternoon as in 'sight of Hounslow villas and of blue-coated • police. And so we learn, without s • urprise, that Bondy has had. its day, and is coming to the woodman's axe. It is a Crown land, and is about to be divided (as was lately done with the park of Neuilly) into a vast number of small lots, to be sold to the highest bidder. It is computed that it will make 15,000 to 18,000 lots of the size Proposed, and the first of these will be sold in a few days. Some portions of Neuilly park have sold very well, at the rate, I have been informed, of 20,000 f. the acre. The greater distance of Bondy_ Forest from Paris renders it improbable that it will realise such high prices ; but it seems expected that it will find a ready sale at fair rates. The large timber, of which there is a good deal, will be re moved, but the brushwood, I understand, will be left for the purchasers. The Brighton Railway traffic return shows this week an increase of £1,787; and the South Eastern an in crease of £1,120. There was an active demand yesterday for the 5 per cent. preference stock of the London, Chatham, and Dover Railway Company, which rose about 3 per cent., closing at 901 to 91/.
