CITY, Two o'CLocx. The Bank of England return, completed to the 17th of October, shows some important changes, owing to the large remittances of specie to the Continent and the East. The stock of the precious metals has been largely diminished, and the payment of the dividends has decreased to a considerable extent the amount of the public deposits, while the private deposits show rather a large addition. The repayment of advances has diminished the other securities to the extent of about a quarter of a million. In the reserve of notes there is a slight falling off, which is in some measure accounted for by the increase in the active circulation. The various items of the balance sheet, and the changes they present, are shown in the subjoined table : Active Circulation .. £21,784,525 Increase .. • • 431,220 Bullion .. .. • • .. 14,585,136 ..

The Produce Markets this week have been firm, without 1 material alteration in prices, the continuance of an active demand in the Money Market having tended to check ' speculative operations.

We have bad large pub lic sales t his week, which com menced on the 16th and concluded on the 18th. 40,028 packages were offered, 17,526 of which were sold, 8,771 being printed without reserve. The sales throughout pro ceeded with firmness, and an advance in medium Congou and all kinds of greens of ,d. to Id. per lb. may be quoted. The result has been to establish a decidedly better feeling in the market. COFFEE.—There has not been a public sale of any de scription of this article during the week ; privately business has been unimportant, buyers waiting the offers of new ar rivals, which are heavy.

The Newmarket races, which commence on Monday, promise to afford many interesting contests, and no doubt will prove attractive, as the programme contains no fewer than seventy items, which arc spread over the whole of the week. _ _ _ There are thirteen races to be decided on Monday. Mr. Merry's colours will be successful in the Criterion, with either Folkestone or Dundee. In the great match for £l,OOO a-side, between Umpire and Tom Bowline, Lord Glasgow will have to succumb to Mr. Ten Broeck. I shall reserve my remarks on the Cambridgeshire till Monday; but, in the meantime, I think the winner will be found amongst the following :—Weatherbound, Pre lude, Sir William, Roesia, and the best of John Osborne's. A FRESH MAN. The following are the prophecies of the weekly sporting lournals : " Beacon," of Bell's life, concludes his letter as follows : —" Having given my opinion of those likely to comprise the front rank in the great contest on Tuesday next, it only remains for me to state that I believe PRELUDE or SIR WILLIAM will secure the judge's fat, and that either Ticket-of- Leave, Weatherbound, Dulcibella, or Optimist way secure the barren honour of a situation.' " "Augur," of the Sporting Life, winds up his remarks in the following way :—" The six which I should take to beat the field would be Prelude, Sir William, Weather bound, Sutton, Optimist (or Maggiore), and Cavriana, and standing on two, let me take MAID OF THE MIST and - PRELUDE, Presuming, of course, that the Maid will prove the best of John Osborne's, but in case the stable should transfer their affections to Sutton Augur' would swim in the same boat." " Touchstone," of the Era, sums up in the following manner : " We look upon Ripon, Prelude, Sir William, Weather bound, Dulcibella, and Sutton as the best half-dozen in the race, as we think the three-year-olds must produce the winner ; and as the favourites are usually so unfortunate in this enootmter, we shall make a bold venture in favour of SIR WILLIAM, WEATHERBOUND, and SUTTON." " The Stable Mouse" of the Era says :—I won't have Dulcibella, but I'll have two strings to my bow without her, and so here goes for a tremendous plunge into Cam bridgeshire, with a return ticket booked and backed for MARLBOROUGH-STREET.. SEEING A LITTLE LONDON LIFE.-Mr. Walter Welch man, a gentleman, of 11, Manchester -street, Manchester square, was charged with being drunk in Oxendon-street, Haymarket, under the following circumstances : It appears that with the view of seeing a little life the de fendanthad the previous night paid visits to sew ral West-end sporting houses, and houses where mcdibez - s of the "P.R." and the " noble" art of self-defence most do congregate, and having, as he stated, treated persons to whatever they fancied, at length fell into the hands of evil. disposed per sons, who eased him of two gold watches and chains, and some "charms" . of the value to the defendant of about £lOO, and but for the protection of the police would doubt less have lost some bank-notes he had in hits possession at the time. It further appears that havin been to Ben Caunt's, Owen Swift's, and Nat Langham's, he afterwards wished to try his hands at fisticuffs with a cabman, and ultimately got taken to the Vine-street station by Austin, 318 A. The defendant having stated his sad lost to the magis trate, Mr. Tyrwhitt discharged him, at f tie same time advising him for the future not to get drunk., ROBBERY AT A LICENSED VICTUAL LERS.—Fanny Price, 23, Fitzroy-road, was charged with stealing a set of fire-irons from the parlour of Mr. Edward .smith, licensed victualler, 1, Great Marlborough-street. Mr. Smith, hearing the noise of somethillg fall in his parlour about 12 the previous night, went to see the cause, when he found tho prisoner there, drunk, with a pair of gas fitter pliers at her feet, and at the same time saw the fire irons fall from under her dress. Prisoner said she was too drunk at the time to know what she was about. Mr. Smith said she appeared to be drunk at the time. Mr. Tyrwhitt said that might be, but perhaps it was not real. Sergeant Stephens (acting inspector) said when he took the charge, and told her she was charged with having the gas-fitter pliers in her possession, supposed to be stolen, she said " it is very likely." In answer to Mr. Tyrwhitt, the prisoner said the magis trate could do what he pleased with her. Remanded. THAMES. AUDACIOUS ROBBERY OF TALLOW BY A MASTER CARMAN.—John Pugh, aged 32, and described as a car man, of Bow Common, and who is the proprietor of four vans, as many horses, and in flourishing circumstances, was brought before Mr. Selfe charged with stealing three quarters of a hundred weight of new tallow, the property of Messrs. John Knight and Sons, soap and candle manu facturers, of Old Gravel-lane, St. George's-in-the-East. Mr. Charles Young, solicitor, defended the prisoner. It appeared that the prisoner had been in the practice of calling at Messrs. Knight's factory to load soap ashes, aid that latterly rie had been suspected of pilfering tallow and other things on his visits, and it was determined to watch him. On Tuesday morning last, at ten o'clock, the pri soner came to the prosecutor's yard with a horse and cart. He loaded the cart with soap ashes, and was seen by a man, named George Hart, to lift a cask of tallow, near the soap-house, and try to 'put it in the cart. The prisoner failed in doing so, and then took up some straw in each hand and wiped them. Hart immediately communicated with another man named Frederick Cooke sell, in the employ of Messrs. Knight and Co., who fol lowed the prisoner, when ho drove away with his horse and cart, and upon overtaking him, said, " What have you got in the cart," to which he replied,"soap ashes. Mr. Cockerell then examined the cask which the prisoner had been handling. The hoops of the cask had been broken off, and three quarters of a cwt. of tallow worth £1 17s. 6d. taken away. Mr. Cockerell returned to the prisoner, and said to him " What have you got in your cart besides ashes." The prisoner said "Nothing." :Mr. Cockerell said " Yes, you have.; I expect you have something else besides." The prisoner solemnly protested he had not, but ho was not be lieved, and Mr. Cockerell said, " You must go with me." He then took the prisoner before Mr. Knight, and said to him, "This man has been robbing you." The pri soner insisted he had not. Mr. Cockerell said, " I must search your cart," to which the prisoner replied in a bolt manner, "Do that, and welcome." Mr. Cockerell directed the prisoner to bring the horse and cart into the factory yard. The prisoner, instead of doing so, jumped upon the cart, whipped his horse, and drove away as fast as he was able. Mr. Cockerell ran after him, and overtook him in Wapping-wall, a quarter of a mile from the factory. The prisoner immediately jumped out of the cart, ran away, and made his escape. The cart was searched, and in a bag under the soap ashes three-quarters of a cwt. of tallow was discovered. It was identified as the property of Mr Knight. The prisoner eluded the search made for him until yester day, when he was arrested by a policeman. Mr. Young said his client would plead guilty, and throw himself on the mercy of the Court. The prisoner had hitherto maintained a good character, and was suddenly tempted to steal the tallow within his reach. Mr. Selfe, after hearing three witnesses as to character, said the prisoner had committed a most serious and audaci ous robbery. The prisoner was well to do in the world, and be had not the excuse of poverty, as many poor creatures had, in extenuation of his crime. He hardly ]mew that he was justified in passing less than the maximum sentence under the provisions of the Criminal Justice Act. He should not, however, pass over the offence lightly. He sentenced the prisoner to be imprisoned in the House of Correction and kept to hard labour for five calendar months. If the prisoner had not brought several respectable persons to speak to his previous good character he should have made it six months. CRIME IN FRANCE. The Tribunal of Correctional Police at Besan con, in Dec. last, condemned to imprisonment for robbery two females, who gave the names of Clau dine and Philiberte Jacquis, and who represented themselves to be sisters. Subsequently the dis covery was made that the first woman was no other than the notorious Catherine Minder, who in 1858 was tried, with several other pei sons bearing the same and other names, but all rela tives, for the murder and robbery of a jeweller, named Peehard, at Caen (crimes which excited immense sensation), but was acquitted. On her examination on the charge of robbery she signed the false name of Claudine Jacquis, and was in consequence ordered for trial before the Court of Assizes of the department for forgery. The trial took place the day bsf.)re yesterday, and the offence was clearly proved. A singular account was given of the woman :—She was, it appeared, a foundling, named Dufour, but married to one of the Minders, who was condemned t ) 20 years' hard labour for par ticipation in the Caen murder. She had at different times by the names of Jules, Roche, Laroche, Cer riere, and Wall, as also of Dufour and Minder, and had been condemned under each. The Minder family, to which she belongs, is notorious in the annals of crime ; the head of it, an old man, is unergoing a sentence of imprisonment for life for participating in murder, and would be in the bagne if it were not for his age ; three brothers, his sons, have been condemned to death for murder ; another son, now deceased, was re cently condemned ; old Minder's sister, and her daughter and the daughter's husband, are each undergoing sentences of hard labour, and lastly the prisoner's husband, as already mentioned, has been sentenced to twenty years of that punisment. It was stated that the prisoner has tour children, two sons and two daughters, but that some charitable people have had them reli giously educated, and placed out in respectable callings. The jury declared the woman guilty of the forgery, and the Court condemned her to five years' hard labour. The other woman, who was concerned with linr in the Besancon robbery, really bore the name Philiberte Jacquis, which she gave ; but she had encouraged her companion to take the name of Claudine Jacquis, and had affirmed that that was her right name. This constituted com plicity in forgirg, and Philiberte was accordingly tried for that offence. She was declared guilty, and sentenced to two years' imprisonment and five years' survei:lance of the police. It may be remembered that some few weeks back an account was given of a man having been condemned to imprisonment for having swindled extensively under the name of a well-known dramatic author. Yesterday another case of false assumption of a name came before the Court of Assizes. Some months since a young man, named Benech, proposed to enlist in the army, but when, as is usual, he applied at the Prefecture of Police for a certificate that he had not been condemned for crime or grave offence, he was told that it could not be granted, inasmuch as in 1856 he had been sentenced to imprisonment for robbery, and in 1860 for vagabondage. He protested that he was not the person referred to, but it was shown that the individual condemned not only resembled him, but had resided at the same place. He waited on an examining magistrate, and prayed that an investigation might be instituted. Just as he has leaving the office, a person who had been arrested for vagabondage was brought in, and he gave the name of Benech, at the same time admitting that he had been previously condemned. The real Benech, however, recognised him as one Vignon, who had resided in the same lodging-house as him self in 1856, and with whom he had for some time been intimate. Vignon then admitted that he had falsely assumed the name of Benech, but why he had done so he did not explain. In the examina tions which preceded his two condemnations he had always signed the name of Benech. This consti tuted forgery in the eye of the law, and yesterday he was tried for that offence. Being declared guilty, although with extenuating circumstances, he was condemned to five years' imprisonment. Mr. Abraham John Robarts, eldest son of the late Mr. A. G. Robarts, has been admitted a partner in the baakivg house of Robarts, Lubbock, and Co. PRELUDE and WEATHERBOUND. The prophet of the Sunday Tinges writes : " The result seems to be with Prelude, Dartmouth, Opti mist, Sutton, Sir William, Cavriana, Fravolo, and Maid of the Mist, and we will venture upon the anticipation of the first three thus : Prelude Optimist Sir William Olympus," of the Sporting Telegraph, winds up with the following remarks :—" In conclusion I can only say that I think the winner will very probably be found in Dulcibella, Weatherbound, Sutton, Prelude, and Contadina, and if the Cesarewitch winner be defeated, it will be one of the latter trio that will accomplish the feat. To stand on one, sole and whole, upon the happy-go-lucky principle of the favourite being defeated, I should take my chance with SUTTON. Form a definite conclusion I cannot, and must leave your readers to judge from the tone of the market and its con comitant circumstances whether I am right in thus recom mending my ' first love' for tsho Cambridgeshire of 1860." " Brevity," of the Weekly Times, says :—" Prelude, Sir 'William, Weatherbound, Dulcibella, Optimist, and Conta dina, with the best of J. Osborne's, look most like supply ing the first three, my preference being for Contadina, Weatherbound, and Sir William, supposing the favourite is doomed to defeat." " Observer," of the Field, concludes his remarks as fol lows :—" The lot I should select to teat the field would be Weatherbound, Thunderbolt, Prelude, Optimist, and Sut ton ; and of these I should place the greatest share of reliance in THUNDERBOLT and PRELUDE. As a cook-boat Conta dina might be worth a trifle." " Harkaway," of the Land, says :—" We see nothing to defeat DULCIBELLA, if she be well and meant ; though we expect Thunderbolt, Sir William, Maggiore, and Conte dine to be very troublesome. 'We cannot fancy either Sutton or Prelude, theugh both have been strongly sup ported:during the week." BETTING AT MANCHESTER-YESTERDAY. We had a very busy afternoon. For the Cambridgeshire, Prelude advanced to the position of first favourite, and was supported very freely at 8 to 1. Her advance had little effect in depressing Weatherbound, against whom 8 to 1 was taken, but not so freely as about Prelude. Golden Pippin, agst whom 50 to 1 was offered yesterday, had friends at 15 to 1, which price was also taken against Thunderbolt. Sutton, Sir William, Itoesia, and Cavriana were also sup ported at their respective quotations, whilst Dulcibella appeared to be quite friendless. The same may be said of Maggiore and Optimist, against whom 40 to 1 eaeh was offered, but towards the close they rallied a little. CLOSING PRICES. CAMBRIDGESHIRE STAKES.

(fractions omitted), £37,777 ; rest from last half-year, £20,225; total, £58,005; less dividend at 61 per cent, £37,093; rest to be carried forward, £20,912. These results, the governor and council are of opinion, will be deemed satisfactory, when it is considered that the for repair sut fo of r l a ock s, week &c f . o , eastern portion of the main. canal was shut for four days, i tth e I'l' onkland Canal was a also for cleansing. thaus.. 0 1 u both occasions eaes large amount of work wa s performed, the cost of which is included in the expenditv xe. The new works at Grange mouth are expected to he completed this season. The dredging of the enlarge= mt of the Junction Canal Basin is already finished. With the enlargement of the Junction Canal Lock, which was coritracted for in May, considerable progress has been made; and also with the erection of the passenger and goods stati on for the Grangemouth Railway The governor and council regret to state that their hopes of an amicable adjustment of the points so long in dispute with the Airdrie and Coatbridge Water Company OA to Rough rigg Reservoir have been disappointed. On the faith of the agreement entered into in. 1847, and ratified I')y the two companies, the Canal Company have advan ced a awn of between £13,000 and £141,000. The agreement: itself was held by the Court of Sess ion to be in some respects ultra vircs of the Water Comps ny under their act, by vt-hom to thi.s o d plea was urged, but the rights of the C anal CorapemY ry b tain repayment of their advances wer e specially reseete and as the Water Company have h itherto declined to n er into a reasonable agreement, the go vernor s.nd council, acting under legal advice, have resolved to raise an action for repayment of the Money. Whatever be' the result of this step, the necessity for which is deeply to. be regretted, the governor and council have the satisfaction of feel ing that the whole transaction has been conducted in per fect good faith on the part of the Canal C'orttpany. In terms of the company's act, Mr. Robson and Mr. Wallace, members of council, and Mr. James Burns aold J. j. Gibb, auditors, ret ire at this meeting. The Ewern.or and council recommend the re-election of Mr. Robs on, but they regret exceedingly that Mr. Wallace, whose sei •vices since 1852 have been most valuable, has intimated hit Z intention not to allow himself to be again nominated, on a tcount of th e state of his he alth. From the same cause 11 ir. J. J. Gibb has been compel l e d to r esign his office as auc liter, and the governor and council therefore beg to propose that the vaca ncy in the council be filled up by the election a of Sir Archibald Islay Campbell, that Mr. James ames Burnt ;be re elected auditor for this current year, and th a t M r . ,redrew Johnston, who, at the request o f for Mr, Gibb, be elected as Mr, the board, has offi 3foled r.

Oct. 19, sa y s : Count Persigny has arrived is Paris on the express sum mons of the Emperor. In the unbetticd position of the present Minister of Foreigr Afraii s this fact naturally gives rise to much spccula M. Thouvenel; having expressed so decided an opinion on the Italian policy of the Emperor, can now be only an embarrassment. He is not so com plying as his predecessors ; he has the strange pretension of having a will of his own cn cer -1 taro matters, and he is not so indifferent ai3, suppose, he ought to be, to the reproaches he must be exposed to for the forgetfulness of the engage ments he had undertaken. M. Thouvenel has been intractable when he was expected to be pliant, and generally he does not possess in the degree that may be desired the qualities indispensable to a modern Minister. For some time back it has been believed that his tenure of office would not be very long, and M. Persignv's visit is con sidered, rightly or wrongly, to have something to do with the matter—either to advise the Emperor s] in the p resent dil emma, or even to ta k e o ffi ce him self, Persignv, however, is, or was, as little yielding r as M.

WILLS AND BEQUEST'S. Lady Agnes Murray Carnegie, relict of the late Sir David Carnegie, Bart., of Southesk Sir David has been long deceased. Lady Carnegie made her will in the year 1837, at Edmund Castle, Cumber land, being at that time a widow, and died in the month of June last at Dynevoir House, Leaming ton, Warwickshire, having attained the age of ninety-six. The will is drawn up in the usual Scottish form, designated " A trust, disposition, and settlement." The property in England was sworn under £25,000, and the will was administered to by her son, John Renny Strachan Carnegie, Esq., one of the surviving executors. Her ladyship directs her property of every description to be divided, share and share alike, between her four daughters, and this latter disposition comprehends the entire terms of the will. The will of Thomas Fitz-Gerald, Esq., of Port land-place, London, and Shalston House, Bucks, was proved in London on the 11th inst., by his re lict, and his sons, Thomas Keane Fitz-Gerald, Robert Allen Fitz-Gerald, and Maurice George Beaufoy Fitz-Gerald, the joint executors; the per sonalty being sworn under £50,000. The will bears date the 2d of July last, and the testator died on the 9th of August following. To his widow he bequeaths an annuity of £l,OOO, with the whole of the furniture contained in both of his residences, carriages, horses, together with the jewellery, articles of vertu, philosophical instruments., &c. His widow possesses a very considerable for tune in her own right, which on her de cease will devolve to her son, Richard Pure foy Jervois, and. in consideration of this cir cumstance, Mr. Fitzgerald bequeaths the whole of his property amongst his other children. To his eldest son, William, he bequeaths his estates in Ire land, and those situate in 13ayswater and in other parts. To his sons Robert and Maurice he has also left estates, and to his other children pecuniary legacies. There are two of large amount—one to his youngest son of £12,000, the other of £14,000 to his daughter. The testator gives the residue equally amongst all his children. The will of Archibald Finnie, Esq., of Glen Hall, Leicestershire, and Newfield, Kilmarnock, N. 8., was proved in London on the 15th of the pre sent month, by the executors—namely, the tes tator's brother, James Finnie, Esq., of Newfield, Henry M'Chlery, Esq., and James S. W. Yarrow, Esq., of London. Personalty £50,000. The tes tator disposes of his property in the following man ner :—He has left to his aunts, Janet and Eliza beth Brown, pecuniary legacies, and to Margaret Brown an annuity of £3OO ; to William Finnic a legacy of £2,000, and to Robert Finnie £1,000; to each of his executors £lOO ; to his valet £5O, added to which the testator has kindly considered all his servants by leaving to each of them legacies. All bequests are to be paid free of the usual legacy duty. The residue, which comprises the bulk of the testator's property, he leaves to his said brother, whom he has nominated residuary legatee.— Illustrated London News, Oct. 20. S.IVING OF LIFE AT SEA. The following is a copy of a despatch received at the Board of Trade from the British Consulate at Copenhagen : " Sir, —I have the honour to report, for the information of the Lords of the Committee of Privy Council for Trade, the particulars of the following cases where .British seamen, during the recent gales, have been saved by foreign ship masters, and by them placed in my charge :-1. On the 3d inst. the brig Sir John Rennie, of Blyth, Capt. A. Turner, master, while in the North Sea, on a voyage from Riga to London, was struck by a heavy sea, which carried away her boats, bulwarks, stanchions, &c , and shortly after filled her with water. The master and s'even of his crew clung to the foretop, with a view of saving their lives. Soon after one of the crew, Benjamin Foster, of London, was drowned, and on the 4th inst. another, Daniel Andrews, of Blytb, died from exhaustion. 4th. While the crew were in the position described, a British screw steamer (name unknown) hove in sight close to them ; they loudly called for assistance, but the master made no effort to render any aid. On the sth the French brig Emilie Felix, Vincent Marie Nicolazo, master, of Dieppe, hove in sight, and the master brought her e alongside, in doing which his ves el struck the wreck Sir John Rennie, and sustained some damage. C apt. Nico ef th lazo then caused a life buoy to be fastened to a ga li a n c e e , ad anal ed, passed to the wreck, andby this ant.otehetriima ctves of Captain in the course of some hours, in savi w n i t n h all e e s e i n x , n d u p m l a b e e e r a . TOunrntheor s a tnhd inst.th e remainder e apt. Nicolazo o f T his l cr a e ded , ad ess and humanity of Capt. rn a er and his crew spoke in the highest terms of the h - them in my charge. Capkti ' in exhaustion and want of food. they must have perished the captain, in saving their lives, Nicolazo, and declaredodt froat without his prompt assistance, and of his crew, as well as the vessel. Upoloffering to repay Capt. Nico lazo of his own exposed ed further that stated e f histewe days he declined to accept anything, stating law the expenses incurred in the maintaining of the said crew for five that the act he had performed was one of humanity. 2: On the 3d inst. the British vessel Phesdo, Edward D. Wilson / r, from Wy bur g for London, while in the North Sea, struckn2w ri 9 w te arks , ba heavy sea, which c arr i e d away boats, masts, bulwarks, stanchions, ' &a., and filled her with water. The master and six of the crew were washed overboard and drowned. Seamen George Hall and John Thompson wer able to cling to the wreck until the sth inst., when they were most providentially rescued by Capt. A. Petersen, of the Norwegian ship Europa, of Christiania, who, at great risk to himself, his crew, and his ship, most humanely launched his boats and saved their lives. After maintain ing them on board his vessel from the sth inst. he landed them at Coperhagen on the Bth, and placed them in my charge. The two seamen spoke in the highest terms of the generous kindness of Capt. Petersen, to whose prompt as sistance they were solely indebted for their lives. Upon being informed by me that he was entitled to payment for their maintenance, Capt. Petersen refused all compensation on the same ground as stated by Capt. Nicolazo. The sea men, John Thompson and George Hall, were unable to furnish me with the names of the men belonging to the brig Phesdo who were drowned. The crews of the late brig Sir J. Rennie and of the late brig Phesdo have this day been sent by me to Shields on board the British steamer Sheidrake, Capt. Barnes. I have the honour to add that the French Minister at this court, in the absence of the French consul, after the departure of the brig Emilie Felix, r e q uested me to furnish him with a declaration respectingv_ the conduct of Capt. Nicola z o in the case referred to, ,J l l, I did. IiARRY RAINALS, Vice-Cous _ ----. It is stated that the tidal service be ichween London and Pari October for, wh the winter months, will this year be maintained in full efficiency until the end of November, and also that it will be carried on throughout the winter, although at a somewhat reduced speed. The preference given to this service by travellers has afforded ample proof of their appreciation of the combination of speed is l im na e wanting to enable its and comfort it affords; and its continuance throughout the year in unbroken efficiency influence to be fully developed augmenting the conti nental traffic. Un the 25th inst. a change will be made in the time of departure of the express trains between Vienna and Paris to Eng- Paris. The fast train willleave Paris at Bin the evening, at h alf-past 5 English,t la be in Munich at 10 in the evening of the next day, and in. Vienna at noon on the second day. The express will kayo vi enri a, a t 4 in the afternoon, be in w M it u h ni t c h h e in the morning, and in Paris at 5 in the morning of the second day. It is to be hoped th® trains from - land will soon be in correspondence train, and vice versa, as the mails which pass wa r t y . arr i v e very irregularly.
