CITY, Two O'CLOCK. During the last few days there has been little activity exhibited in the Foreign and Colonial Pro duce Markets, and in some instances prices have slightly receded. Tea, at auction, sold readily, at an advance of about id. per lb. Speculators have deferred their operations, however, until after the arrival of the overland advices. The better qualities of sugar have been dealt in to a very limited extent, chiefly for home consumption, and in a few instances prices have declined about 6d. per cwt. Coffee has been firm, more particularly good qualities of Plan tation Ceylon, which have shown an upward ten dency. Rice and rum have not varied to any mate rial extent, and for fruit only a moderate inquiry has been experienced at slightly reduced quo tations. Saltpetre is in fair demand, and the finer descriptions have been actively in quired for, at an improvement of about Is. 6d. to 2s. per cwt. Cochineal continues steady, and indigo remains quiet but firm; parties post poning their operations until the commencement of the public sales on the 12th inst. Tallow has ,been dealt in to a larger extent, and prices have ex hibited little fluctuation. P.Y.C., on the spot, is quoted 495. 6d., last 3 months, 495., and spring de livery, 495. '3d. to 495. 6d. per cwt. Accounts from Liverpool report that the Cotton Market yesterday closed firmly, and prices were fully maintained. The sales were estimated at 8,000 bales. The Railway Share Market presented a steady appearance, at about former quotations. The accumulation of bullion at the Bank is retarded in consequence of the absence of Aus tralian arrivals. In the course of a few days, however, further supplies will doubtless be received. The Suffolk has now been 89 days at sea with £320,000, the Sultana 97 days with £162,000, and the Ocean Chief 78 days with £190,400. The following arrivals have been announced this morning, viz., the Sultan, from Alexandria, with £1,600 ; the Fulton, from the United States, with £40,900 ; and the Tamar, from the Brazils, with .£17,000. The silver market continues quiet, and bars are quoted ss. ld. per oz. standard, and dollars 4s. Hid. per oz. standard. The prospectus of - a new company has been issued, entitled " The Intercolonial Royal Mail Steampacket Company," with a capital of £125,000, which will no doubt command the attention of the public. The object of the proprietors is to estab lish 'a monthly mail service between Sydney and the principal ports of New Zealand, a contract having been entered into for that purpose with the Lords of the Admiralty for ten years, with a sub vertion of £24,000 for the first four years, and 22,000 a year for the remaining six years. The trading character of the company, and the privileges afforded by the Government will no doubt render this a profitable undertakin g, if judiciously managed. It appears that three vessels have already been dispatched with full cargoes and a full complement of passengers, and a fourth is to be dispatched during the present month. Looking at the present abundance of money, and the low rate of interest, there is no doubt that trading enterprises of this bona fide character will meet with the ready sup port of the investing public. The English Funds opened buoyantly, but owing to sales by speculators, who were desirous of securing their profits after the late advance, there has since been a decline of k per cent., Consols being 9811 for money, 98 1 , sellers, for the 12th inst., and 98i t for the November account.

FEARFUL CALAMITY NEAR DURIIA3L A COALPIT ON FIRE, WITH FORTY MEN DURHAM, THURSDAY EVENING. A fearful calamity occurred this morning at Page Bank Colliery, six miles west of this city. At eight o'clock the shaft of the pit was found on fire, and one of the overmen was killed by por tions of the burning brattice. Forty men and boys are in the pit, and cannot be got out. The fire has consumed all the brattice, and ex tended to the coal in return drift. At seven o'clock this evening the fire was slightly on the increase. Serious doubts are entertained as to the proba bility of rescuing those in the pit. Nicholas Wood, and Foster, of Newcastle, the eminent colliery engineers, have been telegraphed for.

WARD, In this case plaintiff (a married woman) sought to recover the sum of 13 which she deposed that she had lent defen dant's wife. Defendant did not know anything about it. He had not got a wife. He never authorised any one to borrow money. Plaintiff—Mrs. Ward, or the person who goes by that name, said to me one day that she had an estate in Suffolk, and if I lent her £3 she would pay me very soon. Defendant—She is not Mrs. Ward, and never to my knowledge bore my name. _ _ Plaintiff—Three days after, Mrs. Ward— Defendant (excitedly)—She aint Mrs. Ward. (Laughter.) Plaintiff—Your wife then called upon me for the money; and you called upon me and thanked me for lending the money. _ Defendant--I deny it. There is a woman living with me as housekeeper, and has been in that capacity for the last fifteen years. Her name is Rafter. Some letters were then handed up to the judge, signed " S. Ward," which had been addressed to plaintiff by the woman in question. Plaintiff's husband then came forward, and said that the woman was known generally in the neighbourhood as Mrs. Ward. Defendant—l never heard of that before. His Honour—How do you speak of her generally ? Defendant—l generally call her " Minus." (Laughter.) His Honour—Yes, of coutpii.', You trust pay. Defendant—l won't; I'd rather go to prison. His Honour—Oh, there's no room in the prison for you just now. It is very clear that this woman goes in your name, and that with your sanction. You must pay 2s. per week. Defendant—l can't. I'll go to prison. His Honour—That will come in due course, I have no doubt. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day). MARLBOROUGH-STREET. A CURIOUS WATCH ROBBERY.—Louisa Beesley, a pros- titute, was charged with stealing from Edward Jones, coach maker: of 8, Avery-row, Brook-street, Grosvenor-square, a silver watch of the value of £7. The prosecutor said he was going through Grosvenor square late the previous night when the prisoner came up to him and asked him what countryman he was ? to which he replied that he was a Seotchman, though in reality he was a Welchman. She then asked what part he came from ? and he said Edinburgh, when she said she was from Edin burgh also. She then asked him to go with her to Lisson grove, but on his declining she got him up against the rail ings of a house. She then asked him to give her some money, but instead of doing so he said he would give her his handkerchief, and at the same time asked her to take a pinch of snuff, and just at that moment felt a pull at his watch, and on putting his hand to his pocket found that it was gone. He then felt for his handkerchief, but could not find it, and his snuff-box was gone too. Mr. Bingham—Then she was up to snuff. (Laughter.) The prosecutor said, in continuation, that she wanted to get away, but he detained her, and while doing so two men came up, and one said, " Stick t• her," and ho did till a constable came up, when he gave her in charge. In answer to Mr. Bingham, the prosecutor said the watch was detached from the chain, and ho had recovered his snuff-box. Moore, 107 C, said he thought there was no chance of getting the watch back. The prisoner, who denied stealing the watch, was re manded. ANOTHER WATCH ROBBERY.--Thomas Ashdown, a groom, was charged with stealing a gold watch of the value of £B, from John Millond, in a public-house in Piccadilly. From the evidence of the prosecutor it appeared that he was in a public-house having a glass of ale, when the pri soner came in, and after some conversation ho treated him to a glass of gin, and also a friend of his, and shortly after the prisoner's friend left, but the prisoner still remained with him, when a person called his attention to his watch •hair, which was hanging from his pocket, the watch being detached. He had been drinking, but as soon as he found his loss he got sober. He had also lost his breast-pin and pocket-handkerchief. Peekett, 43 C, saki nothing was-found ion the prisoner. Remanded. THIS DAYS MARKETS. CORN EXCHANGE. There were several of Monday's unsold samples of Eng lish wheat on offer here to-day,.• but the arrivals fresh up, coastwise and by land carriage, were very moderate. Millers ocnerally refused to purchase beyond actual wants, and the trade ruled heavy, at Monday's decline in value. Upwards of 16,000 quarters of • fore*n wheat having been reported, that article met a very dull inquiry, and, in many instances, prices wore nominal. In floating cargoes of grain very little was doing. The supply of barley was on the increase. Very line samples sold at full prices, but the value of light qualities had a drooping tendency. Most kinds of malt realised former terms. We were again heavily supplied with oats, in which a good business was transacted, but at barely late rates. Beans, peas, and flour were dull, at Monday's quotations. ARRIVALS THIS IVEEIt. Wheat. Barley Malt. Oats. Flour English 2,010 1,780 1,690 I 90 1 1,270 Irish .--Foreign 16,250 8,330 67,910 190 sks.

Mr. Lewis Barrett Solly was promoted to be a lieutenant in a death vacancy by Admiral Fan shawe, and has been confirmed, with seniority from the 16th Aug., 1858. Lieut. Solly has been appointed to the Centurion. THE A RMY Yesterday morning, in accordance with an order to that effect issued the previous evening, the com panies of the Royal Engineers and the East India Sappers and Miners, now at head-quarters, Bromp ton Barracks, Chatham, were marched off at an early hour to the space f ground near the Hut Bar racks for the purpose of witnessing the carrying into effect the sentence of a district court-martial on a Sapper named George Merilese, of the 34th company, who was recently tried and found guilty of having been drunk and absent from barracks, and also for striking and violently resisting a non commissioned officer of the corps, who was in the execution of his duty. For this crime, which by the Articles of War is considered of a very serious character, the accused was adjudged to receive 50 lashes in the presence of the whole corps, the court not awarding any imprisonment. At the conclusion of the punishment, which is exceedingly rare in the corps of Royal Engineers, the prisoner, who bears a very bad character, was removed to the hospital, and the troops returned to barracks. On the pre vious morning, at the usual early hour, the troops of the Ist and 2d battalions of the infantry at Chat ham Barracks proceeded inside the Spur Battery, where they were drawn up in the form of a square to witness the infliction of corporal punishment on two private soldiers, each of them notoriously re probate characters.. One of them, private Thomas Ward, Ist batttalion 23d Royal Welsh Fusiliers, had been tried a few days previously for a most savage and unprovoked attack on Colour-Sergeant Lawrey, of the same corps, whom he had threatened to kill. The sergeant had had occasion to report the prisoner for some breach of military discipline, when the latter took the opportunity, a day or two after w:.rds, to most violently assault him, knocking the sergeant down, kicking him, and finishing his attack by jumping him, inflicting such serious injuries that he has been unwell ever since. The prisoner bears a very bad character, and it has been ascer tained that he was discharged with disgrace from two other regiments, owing to violent, ungovern able conduct; he has been in other regiments. The court-martial before whom he was tried sentenced him to receive the maximum number of 50 lashes, and to be imprisoned for 12 months in Fort Cla rence. The other prisoner, Private Charles Smith, 52d Light Infantry, was also tried • for assaulting two non-commissioned officers who were attempt ing to place him under confinement when ordered to do so, and for attempting to bite off the finger of a soldier who came to render assistance. He was sentenced to receive 50 lashes, and further, to be imprisoned for 56 days. After each prisoner had received his punishment he was conveyed to the garrison hospital, and as soon as they are reported fit to leave that establishment they will undergo the remaining portion of their sentence in the mili tary prison, Rochester. Yesterday a large party , of convalescent troops, most of whom were wounded or disabled in India, were granted their discharge at St. Mary's Invalid Depot, Chatham, in consequence of their unfitness for further service, the whole of them having been previously inspected by a Chelsea Board at St. Mary's Barracks, Chatham. The following are the reinforcements that will embark at Gravesend and Cork for Bombay, on Oct. 7 :--32 men of the Bth Hussars, from Canter bury ; 10 men of the 92d Highlanders, from Scot land ; 90 men of the 28th Regt., 25 men of the 33d (Duke of Wellington's), 40 men of the 89th, and 25 men of the 95th, from Fermoy ; 37 men of the 46th, 12 men of the 57th, from Cork; 14 men of the Ist batt. 18th Royal Irish, and 12 men of the 96th, Royal County Down, from Buttevant. Yesterday morning a general muster of the whole of the officers and men of the Chatham division of Royal Marine Light Infantry took place under Col. R. Rea, second commandant, when the Articles of War were read to the battalion, which mustered about 700 strong. The committee of inspection, presided over by Admiral Smart, are continuing their labours at Devonport . dockyard. On *Wednesday they were occupied from 9in the morning until 5 in the after noon. The master shipwright, Mr. Edye ; the assis tant-master shipwright, Mr. H. L. Peake ; and the director of the police, Lieutenant Robt. S. Moore, have, among others, been examined. Among the regulations in progress for the sani tary improvement of the Royal Artillery soldier, in Woolwich, is one for which they are universally grateful, and which is considered one of the greatest boons hitherto conferred on the garrison—namely, the erection of a bathing-house, contiguous to the ordinary ablution room. One of the old cook houses, superseded by the introduction of Captain Grant's kitchen, is being prepared, with eight spacious baths, as a commencement, to be constantly supplied with hot and cold water, for the special use of the private soldiers belonging to the corps. THE MILITIA. The Royal London Militia, of which Alderman Wilson is colonel, although it has now been only 14 days under continuous training, has made such rapid progress in its drill that it will be inspected by a general officer from the Horse Guards on Monday next, on which day there will be a field day in the ground belonging to the Royal London Artillery, Finsbury-square. The new Major (Har ney) has been untiring in his exertions to perfect the men in their training, and to enable them to discharge any duties which her Majesty may here after require them to perform. By permission of the Dean, Colonel Wilson intends to march the whole regiment to St. Paul's Cathedral, to attend divine service, on Sunday morning next. The North York Rifle Regiment of Militia, under the command of the Duke of Leeds, assembled at Richmond, Yorkshire, on Tuesday last, for 21 days' drill and training. The 4th West York Militia, wider the command of Major Cairnes, assembled at Leeds on Tuesday last for 21 days' training. Upon the muster-roll being called by the Adjutant (Capt. Pollard), about 450 of all ranks answered to their names, blf.t as the men were constantly arriving it was impossible to get the exact numbers.
