THIS DAY'S MARKETS. CORN EXCHANGE. To•day's market was ♦ery scantily supplied with English wheat, coastwise and by land carriage. The attendance of millers was far from numerous; nevertheless, a clearance of stands was easily effected at fully Monday's advance in the quotations of 2s per qr. Fine foreign wheat was in request, and, in some instances, prices were a shade higher. Other qualities sold to a fair extent, at fully previous rates. Floating cargoes were active, and the currencies had an upward tendency. There was a good consumptive inquiry for barley at ex treme rates. Fine malt realised previous quotations. Inferior parcels were a slow sale. Oats were in improved request at 6d per qr more money. Beans and peas commanded very full prices, and country flour was hold for more money.

SUDDEN DEATllB.—Yesterday morning an auc tioneer, named Thomas Norcliffe, whilst sitting in the City Police-court, at Manchester, hearing some cases before the magistratei, fell from his seat, as was supposed in a fit, and before he could be removed to the neighbouring infirmary life was extinct. A female, who had been taken to the lock up during the previous night in a state of intoxication, also died about seven o'clock in the morning. She lfad been con fined in one of the ordinary cells during the night, and was about to bo discharged when she complained of pain iu one of her limbs, and being placed before a fire, she shortly afterwards fell from her seat and expired. It rumoured that several other deaths of a similar character have taken place since the setting in of the present hard frost and fog. LONGEVITY AMONG TUE PEERAGE.—It is not a little singular that of the score or so of peers who have died since the commencement of the year there are 16 whose united ages amount to no less than 1,229 years, giving an average of 76 years and a half to each, and setting at nought the dictum of David, as to " three score years and ten." Tne list of noble Lords is as follows :—The Earl of Aylos ford (aged 72) ; Lord Northwick (81) ; the Earl of Ripon (76) ; the Marquis of Bristol (89) ; the Earl of Devon (81); the Bishop of Bangor (86) ; the Duke of Leeds (60) the Earl of Moray (63) ; the Earl of Tankerville (83) ; 'Earl Cathcart (76) ; the Earl of Ilarborough (62) ; the Earl Minto (76) ; Viscount St. Vincent (92) • the Earl of Jer sey (86) ; the Earl of Westmoreland (75)% and Earl Waldo grave (71.)—Once a Week. " We regret to learn," says the Sussex Advertiser, " that our esteemed and talented member, the Right Hon. H. Fitzroy, first commissioner of Public %Vol ks, has been and is suffering from some severe indisposition, which for several weeks has Confined him to his bed." Stock Stook S took 100 Stock; 25 CORBETT V. CORBETT AND SADLER. Mr. llannen, on the part of the respondent, applied to the Court to issue a commission to enable hor to obtain the evidence of certain witnesses resident in China and India, which was material for hor defence. The petition prayed for a dissolution of marriage on the ground of adultery, and it was of the utmost importance that those persons at pre sent out of the jurisdiction of the Court should be exa mined. Mr. Hawkins, Q.C., cn the part of the co-respondent made a similar application, and further stated that the peti tioner connived at the alleged adultery. Mr. Overend, for the petitioner, said ho hoped the court would refuse the application which was made in order to defer the case, which had been set down for hearing, coming into court. He was of opinion that the applica tion of the respondent was more for the purpose of obtaining information than any knowledge on her part that the parties proposed to bo examined in India and China would prove certain facts. The learned judge said the statement of tho facts to be proved by the respondent was not sufficiently explicit. The Court required particulars. Mr. Hannen said the usual course taken in the other courts of law had been adopted. The Judge Ordinary said his judgment in the cause would no doubt be important to both parties, and therefore he would carefully consider the affidavits that had been put in before granting the order for a commission. The learned counsel for the respondents could, if they thought proper, amend those affidavits. Mr. Hannan said he should prefer doing so. Application withdrawn for the purpose of amending the affidavits. HOMER V. HOMER. This cause was set down to be heard before a jury. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner Fonblanque.) IN RE ILIGSII.A.W. This bankrupt was described as of Dover Court, Har wich, and to-day applied for his certificate. The bankrupt was formerly M.P. for that borough. Mr. Lawrence appeared for the bankrupt, and there was no opposition. The facts have already been published at great length. Mr. Lawrence went through the principal points, and urged that it was a case of unavoidable loss and misfortune, and that the bankrupt had lost a fortune of £BO,OOO. His Honour granted a certificate of the first class. SECONDARIES' COURT. (Before Mr. Secondary Potter.) DE LA MOTTE V. COLLINS. The plaintiff is a wood engraver, and defendant was the proprietor of a publication called " Quiz." The claim was for £l4 13s. 6d., the balance of an account for illustrations supplied. Tho defendant pleaded that he was not indebted. After the jury had been sworn a clerk to the defendant's attorney requested an adjournment of the case for half an hour, as his principal was engaged in another court. His Honour said that this was the only ease and ho could not detain the jury. The clerk might, however, conduct the case. The clerk said he knew nothing of the facts. The learned Secondary—The case must be gone on with. It is not showing proper respect to the Court for neither the defendant nor hie attorney to attend. The case was gone into, from which it appeared that the publication commenced in January and ended in April of this year, and plaintiff supplied wood-cuts to the value of £2O 14s. 6d. Defendant paid £6 on account, and never denied his liability, but with the last payment he wrote the following note :—" I am hunting up money, and a fearful hunt it is, but you shall have some more as soon as I can get it." The learned Secondary said he could not conceive what defence there could have been to the case, and the jury must find a verdict for the plaintiff. Verdict for £l.l 13s 6d. POLICE INTEL LIG ENCE-( TII IS D.l3'). MARLBOROUGH-STREET. UTTERING FORGED CIIEQUES TO WEST-END HOTEL KEEPERS.—Augustus Crowell Scott, a respectable-looking man, and who represented himself as a captain ii the army, was charged before Mr. Bingham, by Silvester, a sergeant of the A division, with uttering forged cheques to hotel keepers. Great interest appeared to be felt in the case, the court being much crowded. From the evidence partly gone into on the former occa sion it may be zemeuibered that the prisoner was charged with uttering a cheque on Messrs. Beckett's bank, Leeds, for £4 10s., in payment of his bill at Maurigy's Hotel, Re gent-street and Watoroo-placo, and on the cheque being takent to the Commercial Bank, Henrietta-street, Covent garden, it was sent to Leeds, and returned by Messrs. Beckett, unpaid. Mr. George Booth, solicitor, now appeared for the pro secution. Ennuerson Crawford, clerk to Messrs. Beckett and Co., Leeds, said the cheque produced was sent down to their bank by the Commercial Bank of London, and it was re turned to that bank, no person of the name of John Charles Crowley having an account at their bank. Sergeant Silverton, 293 A, said he took the prisoner into custody at Fenton's Hotel, St. James's-street, and on ask ing about the cheque at Maurigy's, where he had lodged, he said it was a mistake, and that ho had not lodged there. He (Silverton) told him that it was not the first time he had made a similar mistake, and took him into custody. Mr. Booth said the next case was that of uttering a forged cheque at Mr. Fenton's, of St. James's-street• where the prisoner had been staying far 13 days—the cheque being signed Augustus Scott, on Messrs. Tow and Co., bankers, Wakefield and Pontefract. Mr. Francis Edward Fenton, Fenton's Hotel, St. James's street, said the cheque produced flir £l6 !.7s. was sent to his banker's (it having been received from the prisoner), and after being sent to Wakefield, was returned unpaid a few days afterwards. Mr. Booth said it would be observed that the cheques bore different names. He wished for a remand in Mr. Fenton's case for the attendance of a person from Wake • The prisoner (against whom, but for the witnesses being in America, a charge of larceny at Mr. Fenton's would be preferred) was then remanded. THAMES. COMMITTAL OF AN OLD COAT STEALEIL.—John Brown, alias Cushion Brown, alias Dennis Hayes, a labourer, who appeared in great want, and was described as 47 years of age, and dwelling in Flower and Dean-street, a place solely oocupiod by thieves and loose characters, was brought be fore Mr. Selfe, charged with stealing a coat and a silk handkerchief, tho property of Richard Tucker, alabourer in the London Dock. Yesterday afternoon the prisoner was leaving the Lon don Dock at the principal gate, when Philip Bindley, a police-constable, No. 137 H, recognised him as an old thief, and asked him where he get the coat from ho was wearing, to which he replied that it was his own. Bradley took him into custody and took from the prisoner a coat which ho was wearing over an old one not worth a shilling. In one of the pockets was a silk handkerchief. The coat and hand• kerchief were identified by a labourer named Richard Tucker, in the employ of the London Dock Company, who hung his coat up in the Eastern Dock Warehouse at ten o'clock in the morning. The prisoner said ho was guilty, and that ho was not allowed to work in any of the docks, and was in groat want. John Cressy, a police-constable, 221 11, said there wore four or five convictions recorded against the prisoner. Ho was present on the sth of September, 1853, when the pri soner was convicted for stealing two coats in the London Docks, and sentenced to twelve months' imprisonment and hard labour. The prisoner was at the same time convicted of assaulting witness and sentenced to three months' im prisonment and hard labour. Mr. Selfe—l have convicted him sinco then. Pussy—Yes, sir, you sentenced him to six months impri sonment and hard labour for stealing a coat in the London Dock. He has been bonvictod on other occasions for steal ing coats. A great many coats have been missing in the London Dock, and the prisoner, who was formerly employed there, was suspected of being engaged in all those robberies. The prisonor said he could not obtain any work. Mr. Solfo—l don't wonder at that. You appear to be an incorrigible thief. Pussy—And the prisoner has been convicted of embez zling 2s. 6d. which was paid to him by mistake by a clerk in the London Dock. Mr. Selfo—There is quite enough on the depositions with out stating that. I shz.ll not convict the prisoner sum marily on this occasion, but commit him to the session's for trial. MEXICO. Mr. Otway has issued the following circular to the British residents : " Mexico, Sept. 1. "As the speech of Mr. Schneider in the House of Commons on the Bth of July last, a copy of which I have the honour to enclose herewith, in reference to the affairs of Mexico, is considered by her Majesty's Minister to be highly personal and calum nious, he has instructed me to lay it before his coun trymen resident in the capital, and request them in his name to pass a verdict upon the justice or in justice of the charges therein brought against. him. In accordance, therefore, with Mr. Otway's ixstruc tions, I beg you will do me the favour of communi cating to me, at your earliest convenience, either in the form of a signed declaration or in the manner you may deem most advisable, your opinions upon the subject-matter. of Mr. Sehneidei's speech. I have only to add that Mr. Otway believes you are all aware under what circumstances asylum was given to the lady P res id en t in her Majesty's Lega tion, and that her Majesty's late Government ap proved of such as 3 lam having been accorded to Madame Miramcn. "JOHN WALSITAM, " Her Majesty's Acting Consul. "To the British Residents in Mexico." ." REPLY TO MR. OTWAY. " Mexico, Sept. 21, 1859. " In reply to your circular of the Ist inst., ex pressing the desire of her Majesty's Minister, Mr. L. C. Otway, that the British residents in this capital should give their verdict upon a speech de livered by Mr. Schneider, on the Bth of July last, in the House of Commons, relative to outrages com mitted upon British subjects in Mexico, I have the honour, in compliance with the wishes of his Excel lency, to state my views upon the subject for his information ; and if i❑ so doing I should be more prolix than might be considered desirable, I trust the necessity of my being somewhat explicit in giving my opinion—for the purpose of making my self distinctly understood—may be esteemed a suf ficient apology for soliciting your indulgence. " And first, with reference to the statement that Mr. Otway stood at his balcony, accompanied b 3 Madame Miramon, anti manifested satisfaction tv the occurrence of a British subject being marched by a prisoner, I feel bound to say th a t I h ave no knowledge of the circumstance. But with regard to what his Excellency has been pleased to deno minate asylum afforded to that lady, I must beg to be permitted to observe, that as there was no per secution, nor threat of any injury being offered to her by any party that I am aware of, the term ' asylum' would seem to be a misnomer in the pre sent instance ; and the lady mentioned, being the wife of one of the military chieftains of a faction who have made themselves notorious by their dis regard of the rights of British subjects, ought scarcely to be considered a proper person to receive very marked hospitality at her Majesty's Lega tion ; and the least . I can say upon this point is, that Mr. Otway's proceedings in receiving and en tertaining her for so many days consecutively, under those circumstances, I apprehend, was of ex ceedingly questionable expediency, and must, I fear, bs esteemed a sufficient motive to justify any lion. gentleman of the House of Commons in calling the attention of her Majesty's Govern ment to the subject, with a view to the correc tion of any abuse whic!i may be found to sub sist in her Majesty's, Legation in this country. But I am required to render my verdict upon the speech, and not upon detached parts thereof, and will therefore come to the main question—namely, have outrages been perpetrated as stated by th e hon. member ? And if so, has her Majesty's Mi nister here made a becoming remonstrance in the defence of his countrymen ? v Unhappily, upon the first count in the indictment there can be but one verdict when it is public and notorious that, by in structions of the Government, the liberty of British subjects has been restrained without a shadow of cause, that they have been tyrannically imprisoned without a shadow of accusation being preferred against them, and subsequently released to show the magnanimity of the Government in pardoning offences never committed. Aye, by the instructions of the Government,the lifeblood of our countrymen has been shed without the semblance of a trial— inhuman outrages committed to satiate despotic vengeance upon English victims. And you will al low me to say that, however burning the indigna tion may be which I confess rises in mybosom when I reflect upon these alarming atrocities, worthy the not very remote times of cannibalism in this dis tracted country, I fear a still more melancholy truth yet remains to be told, which brings me to the second point involved in the question ; and if I should express myself in strong language, I never theless desire that it may be understood I approach the subject with grief and pain, and rather in sor row than in anger. I will mention a fact here wor thy of note—namely, that the British residents have always hailed the arrival of a Minister in this coun try with profound; respect and sympathy, as one to whom they might look up for counsel and pro tection, and surely the case of Mr. Otway formed no exception to the general rule in this respect; but, unfortunately he soon alienated the kindly sentiments which we all entertained for him at that period, by the indifference he manifested for our well being, and the unnatural affection he thought fit to form for a Mexican faction, who are particularly inimical to British subjects. That Mr. Otway should have made these persons his bosom com panions, and even in matters of business addressed confidential notes to the Government instead of official demands for justice in behalf of his country men, seems to be incomprehensible conduct in her Majesty's Minister; and, unhappily the authori ties in this city immediately took advantage of his lamentable weakness, and fancied they might trample our rights under foot with impunity, and hence arose much of the injury and, perhaps, moo of the outrages subsequently committed. Therefore a fearful responsibility rests upon Mr. Otway, in connexion with our sufferings, and the deduction is undoubtedly legitimate that his Excellency has co operated with the Mexican Government for the oppression of those whom his official position rendered it his duty to protect and console in the great affliction through which we have been made to pass. I trust, therefore, he will pardon my pre sumption in suggesting that it might be well for him to refresh his memory by looking over chanter vi. b. iv. of " Blackstone 's Commentaries," where some useful observations may be found upon the subject of treason—a point which her Majesty'a Government may wish to discuss with him on his arrival in England; and it is desirable that a con stitutional judgment should be given upon his somewhat anomalous proceedings. "I have not conceived it necessary to enter into the details of several cases of outrage, nor the par ticulars of the course pursued by Mr. Otway in relation thereto, which might be adduced in sup port of the conclusion to which Jam irresistibly im pelled—that he has given irrefragable proof of utter incapacity for the responsible office he holds, and perhaps, equal evidence of a want of fidelity to her Majesty's Government, as his Excellency is already in possession of that information, and I felt desirous of being as brief as possible consistently with per spicuity, but still I fear that the length to which my remarks have extended demands an apology. When the peculiar relative position subsisting at this moment between Mr. Otway and myself be fore her Majesty's Government is considered, it will be perceived how indispensably necessary it was for me to state the grounds for my opinion upon the speech referred to, for, had I simply given my assent or expressed my dissent without assigning any reason, I might have exposed myself to the accusation of being actuated by private motives of like or dislike in rendering the verdict which I have now the honour, in obedience to the commands of his Excellency, to transmit, and with great regret ; but, in the interest of truth and justice, I must say that, after making allOwance for some in accuracy of detail in his speech, I do not discover any substantial error in the statements made by Mr. Schneider. * " John Walsham, Eq., &c., " Her Britannic Majesty's Consul, Mexico." MELANCHOLY CASE.—Some mornings since a per son named Jane Welch, having on the night previous lost a victorine, was looking for it in the neighbourhood of the Moat, at Sheerness, when she observed the body of a female. The body was soon recovered by Mr. Yeland and Mr. Floyd. The depth of water was only about three feet, but the de ceased was lying on her face. An inquest was held on Tues day, when Henry Pain, who was much affected, stated that the deceased was his daughter, who was 19 years of age, and at six o'clock on Sunday evening she left home for chapel. She was not in the habit of staying out late, but on one occa sion, when she was not home till half-past nine, he repri manded her. Mary Ann Smith, an acquaintance of deceased, said she accompanied her the night previous; that theydid not attend a place of worship that evening, lmt meeting a young man named Murphy, witness left deceased and him together. Arthur Murphy said he had been ou friendly terms with deceased, and accompanied her fur a walk on Sunday even ing. She then said it was so late she should not go home at all, and that she should leave for Chatham in the morn ing. He accompanied her to the beach, and vainly endea voured to persuade her to go home, and ho left her sitting about four yards from the water, crying. He did not call and tell her father, as deceased had told him that her father had broken a portrait of his. Did not know what she was crying for, unless the objection her father had to his keep ing company with her. Mr. K. Robinson, surgeon, said there was a wound over the left eye of the deceased, which might have been caused by a fall and stunned her. She ' appeared to have been in the water about eight hours. The coroner remarked that there had been cases of persons being blown into the water, and the jury returned a verdict "That the deceased was found drowned, without sufficient evi dence to show how," expressing a desire that tho witness Murphy should be severely censured for leaving deceased under such distressing circumstances, and which was done.
