CORN EXCHANGE. The leading country markets held on Saturday were fairly supplied with wheat, in for the most part middling condition. On the whole, the trade was in a sluggish state, at about previous quotations Barloy moved off steadily, at extreme rates, but other descriptions of produce were a slow inquiry. Throughout the Continent very little change has taken place in prices generally. For the most part, the supplies have continued moderate. In the United States, the quo tations have had a drooping tendency. The arrivals of English grain up to our market last week were very moderate. From abroad we received 19,653 qrs' of wheat, 14,013 of barley, 29,547 oats, 170 rye, 80 beans' 4,040 peas, 20 tares, 6,685 linseed, 4,822 rapeseed, 487 sun dry seeds, and 160 sacks of flour. The quantity of English wheat received fresh up, to-day, coastwise and by land-carriage, was moderately good ; but the general quality of the samples was by no means first rate. The attendance of millers was rather on the increase, and good and fine qualities moved off steadily at fully last Monday's currency; low and damp parcels were in some what improved request at full quotations. There was rather a large quantity of foreign wheat on the stands. For good and useful qualities the demand ruled steady, but no change took place in their value. Other descriptions were dull, on former terms. We had a slow inquiry for floating cargoes off Falmouth. Prices, however, were supported. Although the imports of barley have been on a liberal scale, all kinds, especially malting parcels, sold steadily, at extreme currencies. There was only a moderate inquiry for malt; never theless, prices were well supported. • _ . The show of oats was good, yet tho demand was in a healthy state, at previous currencies. - • - Both beans and peas were a dull inquiry, and last week's prices were barely maintained. Most descriptions of flour sold at full quotations. CURRENCY PER IMPERIAL MEASURE.

From our own grazing districts the arrivals of beasts fresh up were rather large as to number, but very deficient in quality. The attendance of butchers was good, and all prime breeds commanded a steady sale at last Monday's currency—the primest Scots having sold at fully 4s 10d per Slim. Otherwise, the beef trade was in a sluggish state at last week's quotations. The arrivals from Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Nor thamptonshire amounted to 2,621 short horns and crosses; from other parts of England 400 of various breeds ; from Scotland 120 Scots and crosses ; and from Ireland 650 oxen and heifers. The supply of sheep was tolerably good. For most breeds there was a steady demand at fully the prices rea lised on this day se'nnight. The best old Downs and half breeds sold at 5s 4d per Elbs. The general quality of the sheep was very middling. Although the supply of calves was very limited, the veal trade was in a sluggish state, at last Monday's currencies, or about 2d per Sibs beneath Thursday's quotations.

OLD COURT.) (Before the Recorder.) The October sessions of the Central Criminal Court com menced at the Old Bailey this morning before the Lord Mayor, Aldermen Hale, Lawrence, Gabriel (Sheriff), Phil lips (Sheriff), the Recorder, and the Undersheriffs, Messrs. Egleton and Gammer. The Recorder, in charging the grand jury, said the ca lendar for the present session contained a large number of cases of a serious description, but not more than usually was the case at this period of the year. The first case to which he would call their attention was that ef Sarah Jane Wiggins, who was indicted for the wilful murder of a child, with whose father she was cohabiting. It appears by the depositions that the prisoner was in the habit of correcting the children, and it would be for them to say whether the death of the child was caused by an excess of punishment. The woman was in the habit of tying the child to the bar of the bedstead, where it remained all night in a horizontal position, and death by apoplexy was the result. The jury would have to consider whether the evidence which would be placed before them was such as would justify them in returning a true bill against the prisoner. The law was plain and conclusive on thie point, and by it a parent cer tainly had the right to administer a certain amount of cor rection as punishment, but in the event of death ensuing from any excess, then such person committed an offence against the law, and a jury would have to decide whether such offense was murder or manslaughter. To place and leave a -child in the position of that of the unfortunate deceased for a considerable time was inhuman, and a person doing so must be aware that death was likely to ensue ; but it was for the grand jury to say whether the facts as they appeared on the depositions amounted to either wilful mur der or the less serious offence of manslaughter. The next charge to which he wished to draw their attention was that of manslaughter against a person named Hannah Harvey. The woman was a pauper, and in the month of September she was admitted into the workhouse, where she remained until the 4th of October, when she, with her infant, which was about five months' old, left of her own accord. In a short time she was brought back for begging, but the next day she again left and remained out the whole of the night, which turned out very wet and cold. The next morning a surgeon saw the child, and the mother and in fant again entered the workhouse, but the latter died about two hours after its admission, from the effects of the expo sure and want of food. The natural nourishment of the child failed with the mother, no doubt, from fever, brought on during the night time, but as it appeared in evidence that she had means of procuring food, and did procure some for herself, it would be for the jury to determine whether the death of the child occurred through any cri minal neglect, and, if so, did it amount to the crime of man slaughter. Another case to which he wished to direct their attention was that of Edward Reef and James Turner, who were indicted with administering poison, with intent to murder. The poison administered was sugar of lead, placed in some beer by one of the prisoners, and the person who had escaped death was no other than his wife. The law was extremely defective touching the admistering poison with intent, &c., but the depositions, which were very full, would enable them to say whether the prisoner's ought to be placed upon their trial for the offence. There were two other cases of attempting to destroy human life—the first was that of discharging a loaded gun at a gamekeeper, and the other was that of stab bing a policeman in the eye. As both people narrowly escaped death, the jury would no doubt give the evidence their most serious attention. There was one other case which might be brought before them; but as he had not yet received the depositions he was precluded in some measure from adverting, but as it was more than likely they would have to consider it, he would just address a few words to them on the case. It was a charge, arising out of the recent strike in the building trades, of conspiring to intimidate workmen who had undertaken to work for a certain master. He did not know whether the evidence would be sufficient to meet the case, but he wished to tell the jury what the law was, in order that they might be able to deal with the case. There could be no doubt whatever that by the statute passed in the reign of George IV. perfect freedom was given to masters and workmen as to what wages one should give and the other receive ; but it was provided by that statute that it should be an offence for any person to prevent others from taking work with any master or for any wages, either by intimidation or molesting them. The word molesting was no doubt somewhat ambiguous, but it had been rendered more so by an act passed last session, by which:it was provided that it shall not be considered molesting by merely l endeavouring peaceably to persuade in a reasonable manner, without threat or intimidation, direct or indirect, others from work ing. Anytking beyond this would still remain an offence punishable by law. Then, supposing such to be the case, the jury would have to consider whether there was suffi cient evidence to show that persons had been prevent e d from working, either by threat or molestation. There was nothing else to which he need call their attention, so the grand jury would please retire to their room, and enter on the performance of their duty. The Grand Jury then retired. THE CASE OF ROYAL. Mr. Sleigh asked the Recorder whether he would have any objection to fix the trial of Frederick Royal for Thurs • day next. He understood the Solicitor-General was com ing dovin to conduct the prosecution, and that day would suit all parties. The Recorder—There are two cases of murder. The case of Ann Waugh, he thought, would be taken on that day. Mr. Sleigh—Waugh's case could be taken on Wednes day, and Royal's on Thursday. If such an arrangement was made, it would enable all the witnesses to be in early attendance. The Recorder—Very well, we will fix the trial of Royal for Thufsday neat. CUTTING AND WOUNDING. A respectably.-dressed man named Lawrence Duckworth Barlow surrendered to an indictment charging him with &fling and wounding Harriet and William Edwards on the 25th of August last. The prisoner pleaded not guilty. Mr. Cooper conducted the prosecution, and Mr. Sleigh defended the prisoner. Harriet: Edwards—l live at No. 3, Shoemaker-row, Blackfriars. My husband is a mechanics' labourer. The prisoner resides at the Blackfriars School, and his wife is governess there He threw a pail of water over my child and several ether little ones, and on seeing it I came down stairs. I found the prisoner outside, and saw him strike a woman with his hands. A mob got round him, and I then saw him with a life-preserver in his hand, and ho began to use it. Ho struck me with it on the chest. I did not see any blade in tho weapon ho struck me with, but I felt some sharp instrument pierce me, and I thought it was my stay-bone, and that my ribs were broken. I thought it was a policeman that pulled the blade from my chest. He did not say anything when he struck me. He knocked me down first, but I do not know what with, for I was quite stunned. I was taken to the hospital. Cross-examined—This occurred in an inclosed space. Pri soner has frequently thrown water overmychildren fbr being there during the last twelve months. I know he has struck them before. I have been bound over to keep the peace towards him before Alderman Phillips. Edward Langford, of 3, Shoemaker-row, said he saw the prisoner strike the old man (Mr. Edwards) over the shoulder with the life-preserver. I saw Mrs. Ed wards outside the school gate, and in the squabble I saw the pri soner knock her down. With the assistance of the police I got her into my shop, and there took from the left side of her chest this blade, which was broken off the end of the life preserver, and buried in a slanting direction to the depth of six inches in her chest. There was only half an inch of the blade projecting, and some one drew my atten tion to it, and I thought it was only a stay-bone. I saw him take the life-preserver from a side pocket, and put the string round his wrist before using it. Mr. Sleigh addressed the jury for the prisoner, and called a number of witnesses who gave it as their opinion, having seen the disturbance, that he was the injured party. The jury returned a verdict of guilty, and the prisoner was sentenced to twelve months' imprisonment. DISTRESSING SUICIDE.—An inquest was held on Saturday by Mr. Humphreys, on the body of a man believed to be ➢Zr. Thomas Williams, Baptist minister, of Shorn brook, Bedfordshire. He had taken apartments at 31, Charles-street, St. Luke's, and had resided there two months without his name being known, and it appeared it had been carefully obliterated from everything in his pos session. He was found on Wednesday hanging to the post of a French bedstead by a rope, but in such a po sition that he could have saved himself if he had pleased. In his pockets bank notes to the amount of £25 were found, and, ultimately, a small plate was found engraved " Thomas Williams, Shornbrook, Bedfordshire," which led to his identity. Verdict, temporary insanity. - - - POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. MORE OF THE I XHIBITION OF THE OFFENSIVE CARICATURE.—SOMETHING LIKE MOB -LAW.—EXTRIOR BINARY CASE.—Charles Richards, a musician, was charged with annoying Mr. Frederick Putnam, fishmonger, of 3, Market-street, by playing a violin, and with causing an obstruction. Mr. Edward Lewis, of Great Marlborough-street, ap peared for the complainant, and having referred to the case (which was fully reported in our columns on Saturday), respecting an offensive caricature exhibited in the window of Mr. Flower, of the White Hart, reflecting on Mr. Martin, an eatipg-house-keeper, and Mr. Putnam thelyesent complainant, who said that on Saturday night the . prisoner Richards went to the house of Mr. Flower and commenced playing his violin, having with him a female playing on a harp. A mob of about 500 persons assembled, the greatest disturbance prevailed, and if a stop was not put to it the persons complaining would have to give up business. Mr. Putnam said he requested the prisoner to go away, when a large number of persons assembled-300 or 400— began hooting and yelling at him and Mr. Martin, the eat ing-house keeper. The prisoner moved a short distance, but as soon as Sergeant Mills, 4 E, had left, returned and began playing again. Mr. Flower then took the prisoner into house as another constable came up, and afterwards the prisoner came out and began playing again. Mr. Flower came to the door and addressed the people, calling him (Mr. Putnam) and Mr. Martin villains, &c. Ultimately the pri soner refusing to desist playing was taken into custody. Link, 58 E, proved seeing a mob of 500 or GOO people assembled at the time. There was hooting and yelling. Ho told the prisoner he was causing a disturbance, and pro venting tradesmen carrying on their business. Sergeant Mills, 4 B, said there was a very great disturb ance at the time. He told the prisoner to leave, and he said he would, but Mr. Flower took him ley the arm and told him to " play away, play away." He was obliged to put extra men on from ten o'clock till one in consequence of the disturbance Mr. 'leaden said he had told him before that he was bound to go when desired to do so ; but if set himself in defiance of the law, and Mr. Flower, who was said to be the person who set him on, thought proper to pay the fine; he could do so. The prisoner said ho had played for 14 years at the same place. He played a couple of tunes, and Mr. Putman told him to go away. lie went and played in front of Mr. Rey molds' shop, and he was then given into custody. He wished to know what he was to do. Mr. Beadon—When they tell you to go, and your play ing creates a crowd and disturbance, and Mr. Flower tells you to play on, you are endangering the peace of the metro polis, and when the constables tell you to go, you are bound to tlo so. I shall fine you 405., or a month ; and if Mr. Flower likes to pay the fine he can do so. Mr. Flower stands some little chance of losing bis licence, I think. Richard Hubbard, a lad, was then charged with assault ing Mr. Putnam, while the circumstances giving rise to the preceding case were going on, by what is commonly called " bonneting" him (i.e., knocking his hat over his ejes). The case was proved by Mr. Putnam, Beech 87 E, and Link 5S E, and prisoner was fined 405., or a month. Mr. Beadon, alluding to the two cases, said—lt is most outrageous, and must be stopped. It was mob law, and nothing else, and will have to be put down with a very hish hand. If I had not already passed the sentence of 40s. or a month, I would have imposed a fine of £5 or two months, so as to give him a chance of appeal. The affair has given rise to the greatest excitement in the neighbourhood. Large crowds assembly to inspect the caricature, and great annoyance to the different tradesmen has been caused thereby. A summons has been granted against Mr. Flower for the exhibition of the caricature. from °dem, 1,279 from Sydney, 180 from Smyrna, and 359 from Sydney. .LLOW Our market eon To-•dap P.Y.C. on Rough fat is 3s 3; Ltinues s 1 L the spe Id per ;eady, and prices are supported. t is selling at 59s 9d per cwt.

Mr. Francis Thornton, the landlord of the Bird-in-Hand, said the prisoner came to his house on Saturday night and called for a quartern of rum, and after she had put her fin gers in the liquor asked him to change it He refused to do so, and she made use of the most horrible threats and lan guage, and threw part of the rum over a gentleman.'s back. After some trouble he ejected her from the house, and she then threatened to have his life, and said it she had to wait 20 years she would murder him. After more bad language, she took up a large stone and deliberately hurled it against a large pane of plate glass, which was broken to pieces. It measured three feet eleven inches by fifteen inches, and its value was 18s. Mr. Selfe— I wish you publicans would not have such expensive plate glass in your shop fronts. I shall fine the prisoner 10s. only, and in default of payment 14 days' im prisonment. If she pays the 10s. it will be given to the prosecutor. The prisoner—l won't pay the money. I will do the 14 days. Eliza Maxley was charged with breaking a pane of plate glass in the Black Swan public-house, Bow. Mr. Francis Penny, landlord of the Black Swan, said the prisoner came there on Saturday night, made a disturbance, and broke a pane of glass with a stone. He valued the glass at 10s. Mr. Selfe—l see by the police-sheet that you valued your pane of plate glass at 75. 6d. on Saturday night. Mr. Penny—l said from 7s. 6d. to 10s. Mr. Selfc—The women in Bow appear to have a great spite against publicans' plate glass. The prisoner is fined 7s. 6d., and in 10 days' imprisonment. 111 IS DAY' SHIPPING t,ONDON, Oct. 24.—Wind this day at noon, South-East; liqht breeze, with dull, foggy weather, and rain.

PRINCE ARTHUR AND THE FAIR " FLOWER GIRL."—An anecdote is told in connection with the recent departure of the Queen and Royal family from Edinburgh, on their way south. As the sheriff of Edinburgh stood in shrieval dignity on the platform of the railway station a lady sought audience of him. It was granted, and the lady proceeded to tell him that she had a little girl with her who was deeply in love with Prince Arthur, and that nothing on earth would satisfy her shore of presenting Prince Arthur with a bouquet. The sheriff pondered a moment, but was afraid he had not jurisdiction sufficient for the proposed presentation of the bouquet ; however, ho would see. Accordingly he entered the Royal carriage and explained the matter to the Queen, pointing out to her the expectant young lady, who stood, a bewitching little crea ture, all blushes, hopes, and fears on the platform. Her Majesty, with the utmost promptitude, declared her willing ness for the bouquet scene, and said she would not for a mo ment "come between the two." Whereupon the sheriff re turned with the welcome tidings, and little Miss—, step ping forward with the grace of Ferraris, presented her flowers, with a charming consciousness beaming from her child-face, which no doubt the youthful prince fully appre ciated —.Fife Rerald.

It will be all work at Newmarket this week, for hay and corn considerations will induce all classes of trufites to enter into the pursuit of sport and profit with avidity. Already the town is crowded with visitors ; beds re at a premium and war prices have been adopted by the tradespeople. All sorts of rumours are afloat respecting the Cambridge shire and my particular friend. The Man in the Street— meets the with a knowing wink, shrugs his shoulders, and mutters "we shall see." And I suppose we shall, but what my mysterious and uncommunica tive friend omits to mention. People do not seem yet satiated with Honey, and all Yorkshire turfites are sweet upon her. She has been tried with Eskdale and has done wonders ;—and if all be true she must be very formidable. Then Mutineer is in the market again ;he is a horse who is always having satisfactory trials, but who has never yet displayed much racing ability. His defeat at Doncaster is attributed to the many disappointments which he experienced in the race. It is said that no very light weight can "get him out," and that his owner in tends to let him carry a few pounds extra weight in order to secure the services of a strong lad. For Ambush I have a strong liking. The manner in which she made tho running for the Cesarewitch furnished ample evidence of her speed, and entitles her to the consideration which has been bestowed ou her chance. Lady Alice's success "across the flat," on the Thursday, also brought her deservedly into a prominent position in the Cambridge shire betting. That her merit has had a satisfactory and public test is undeniable, and if John Osborne believes in her chance I should not like to oppose her. M. Phillipe can have very little chance. 9st 21b is a steadying weight over such a course, and I cannot deem him class enough to carry it first past the post. Now, North Lincoln is an animal of sound pretensions, he possesses an immense turn of speed; and Bst 71bs is not after all a crushing weight of itself. The style in which he climbed the Epsom and Ascot Hills show that he will not dislike the course, and the manner in which he carried home his Bst 121bs at Goodwood not only shows that really first-class horses are not much affected by weight, and proves that North Lincoln must be very formidable now that he has 51bs less to carry. Of the French lot I enter tain slender expectations. Geologic, it is true, beat Jack Spring at Baden-Baden, but at that time Jack Spring was no more Jack Spring than Jack Nokes is Tom Styles. Montebello can have no chance with North Lincoln. Black Tommy, I should think, is not likely to supplant Ambush. Star of the East may run respectably, especially as the race finishes at the top of the town, and he will therefore have his head towards his stable. He is, however, too great a rogue to trust. Gracchus will'perhaps be the representative of the Len-es stable, but I can scarcely recommend him to notice. Broadlands ran very forward for the Cesarewitch, and, as lam told, that he has since been "doing well." I confidently expect to see him in the front rank at the finish. Some uncertainty attaches to Ariadne, and many persons seems at a loss to account for the determined oppcsition which she has received in the mar ket. Perhaps, after all, the true cause of her retrogression may be traced to the introduction of fresh favourites. If she retain anything of her two-year-old form her chance must be very great. The Cesare ;itch winner Artless will be very near, even if she be not quite near enough to repeat her achievement of the Second October. She beat everything except Gas pard—and him she ought to have defeated the first time — with such great ease that her additional weight will not militate materially against her chance. It is also stated that on the Cesarewitch day she was many pounds below her present form. Many persons who were stationed on the ditch, and who commanded a good view of the early part of the race are loud in their admiration of Petra's running, and have expressed a very favourable opinion of her chance. For my part, however, I think she will , not be able to beat Mazzini and others who occupied more prominent positions towards the finish of the Maud will, I fancy, find the dis tance half a mile too far. Of Sam Spode I have no hope, and the others I shall not mention separately. The ani mals whom I deem most entitled to confidence are ARTLESS, NORTH LINCOLN, and AMBUSH. The matches do not require notice, and when I receive the acceptances for the Free Handicap and the Nurseries, I will forward a few Notes on them. A FRESHMAN.
