The sum of £lO,OOO in sovereigns was withdrawn from the Bank on Saturday for the Cape. The explanation of the recent loan obtained in Paris by the Viceroy of Egypt on Treasury Bonds said to consist in the fact that these bonds are the private property of the Viceroy and several members of his family, and do not constitute any new issue. The Government, it is added, " occasionally obtains small temporary advances, like every other Government, but no new negociable document of any kind has been created since the last loan." The important question of the resuscitation of the American cotton trade by the introduction of Chinese labour into the Southern States continues to attract increasing attention. A first dividend of 2s. 6.1. in the pound will be payable to the creditors of the Blakely Ordnance Company (Limited), at the offices of Messrs. Price, Holyland, and Waterhouse, on the 12th inst.

THAMES. ROBBERY IN A B7ER-BROP.—Richard Russell, son., aged 50, and Richard Russell, jun., 30, were charged with steal ing wearing apparel and other property, worth £3l, be longing to Caroline Dunn, a widow, who keeps a beer house in High-street, Whitechapel. The robbery was committed while Mrs. Dunn was absent from home on Thursday afternoon last. The prisoners were in the house while Mrs. Dunn was absent—the older Russell in the tap room, and the son in the upper part of the house cleaning a cow heel. The property was stolen from Mrs. Dunn's bedroom. A former conviction against the younger Rus sell was proved, and after some evidence the prisoners were remanded, BARNAUS BLOCK AND HIS SMEN.—Elizabeth Moss, a woman of the town, was brought before Mr. Paget charged with stealing a new coat, the property of Barnabus Block, a sailor. The sailer met the prisoner in Rateliff-highway. Lie was in her company several hours and missed her bud denly and his coat also. She told hint, when she saw him again, that it was pawned for lOs., and he gave her th2.t sum to redeem it, but instead of doing so sho retained the money, and left the coat in the possession of the pawn broker, who now produced it. Mr. Paget discharged the woman, and ordered that the coat should bo given up to Block, at the same time giving an opinion that he was very appropriately named, and that he was a very great blockhead, first in forming such bad company as he had done, and next in parting with his money to the prisoner. Mr. George Henry Wood, pawnbroker, who produced the coat, made strong objections to the restoration of the coat. He said that sailors Ovens iu the practice of permitting loose women, like the prisoner, to pawn their clothes when they had no money, for purposes to which he need not allude, and then charged them with stealing the property when they got sober. This was a case of that kind. Th 3 sailor, Block, indulged himself, and while tipsy gave her his coat to pawn, and he then gave her into custody when ho became sober. Mr. Paget said the seaman was a foolish fellow, but he had positively sworn that he had never given the prisoner the coat. Mr. Wood—He had no money, and she took the coat with his permission to satisfy the demand she had upon him. This is known to be done every hour. Mr. Paget thought that pawnbrokers ought not to re ceive sailors' clothes off the frail women of Itatcliff-higb way and Shadwell. The prisoner never had any property in the coat. Sho had no right to pawn it, and the coat must be given up to the sailor. Mr. Wood complied with the magistrate's decision, and Baruabus Block put on the coat in the court. OURNALS.

Biggins, a young man, was charged before Mr. Knox with obtaining a quantity of waterproof tweed of the value of £6 by means of a forged and fraudulent order, with intent to defraud Mr. Scott Adie, Scotch plaid and tweed warehouseman Regent -street. It appears that the prisoner, who was formerly in tho employ of Mrs. Toovey, dressmaker, of No. 8, Somerset street, Portman-square, came on Wednesday last with an order purporting to come from Mrs. Toovey, asking for patterns of tweeds. The patterns were given to him, and the next day he came again with another for two pieces of tweed, in all 16 yards, and of the value of £6, the order also purporting to come from Mrs Toovey and an assistant to Mr. Scott Adie, named Reynolds, believing the order to bo genuine, handed him the goods. Subsequently the bill f,r the goods being sent to Mrs. Tooby, it was found that she had never sent, and that the order was a forgery. The matter was then put into the hands of Butcher, a plain cluthes officer of the C division, who took the prisoner into custody. In answer to Mr. Knox, the prosocutrix raid she never gave the prisoner any authority to go for the goods, neither did she sign the order for them. An assistant to Mr. Richard Attenborough, pawnbroker of 19, Piccadilly, an assistant to Miss Isabella Fleming, of Brewer-street, each produced a piece of tweed pledged by the prisoner, and they were identified by the witness Reyno!ds as those he gave the prisoner. Butcher said that on taking the prisoner he at first denied the charge, but afterwards said ho had forged Mrs. Toovey's name to the order, and pledged the goods for .£2 103. _ _ _ The prisoner reserved his defence, and was committed for trial. WESTMINSTER. T HE SHOEBLACK BOY NUIS ANCE.— James Kelly, a youth, was charged with creating a n obstruction near Victoria station, and assaulting C harles Crossman, a police constable. • Complainant raid that on Saturday night he found de fendant and two other shoe-blacks creating an obstruction outside Victoria-station, where they were much com plained of. The other moved away when ordered, but prisoner refused, and declared he would stay there as long as he liked. Complainant removed him, when he rushed upon him and threw him down in the mud, and then kicked him in the most clingerous manner. Defendant said ho was doing no harm when ho was in terfered with by tho police. He did not consider he had any right to be interfered with. Mr. Selfo asked !f anything was known of him? The police read a memorandum showing that the de fendant had been repeatedly convicted for assaults upon the police, and had been also twice charged with felony. Prisoner— It was only upon suspicion, your worship, that I was here for felony. Mr. Selfe committed him for six weeks to hard labour, and told him that if brought tbere.again be would send hint ier trial.

At Newport, ;Monmouthshire, on Friday, a boy named Charles Gritt made the extraordinary statement that he poisoned Miss Emily Collier, the daughter of Mr. Collier, oil merchant, Dock-street, Newport, on Easter Monday last. So far as can be ascertained, it appears that Gritt was taken from the Caerleon Industrial Schools by Mr. Collier, and on Easter Monday be offered Miss Collier some wheat, a portion of which she ate. She told her mother the boy had given her some wheat, and said it tasted very nasty. She was told to throw it in the fire, which she did, and it was noticed that it emitted A peculiar flame. In the evening she was taken ill, and next day Dr. Brewer was cent for, but be at once pronounced her case hopeless, as paralysis of the brain bad set in, and on the following Thursday she died. Mrs. Collier, it has transpired, had an idea that her daughter did not die a natural death, still not the remotest suspicion ever crossed the minds of the family that she had been poisoned. Mr. Collier had some fowls in his possession, all of which died in a very strange manner just about the same time. Gritt said en Friday that he managed to get some poisoned wheat from the Caerleon schools, which Ile gave to Miss Collier, and he also admits having poisoned the fowls. There is no doubt that he also attempted to poison the eldest son of Mr. Collier, as he was ill for about a week about the time his sister died. The medical man who attended the deceased has been consulted, and he says her symptoms were such as might result from poison. The boy has absconded since making the confession, but it is expected that the police will secure him in the course of a few days. No motive is assigned for his conduct, Mr. Collier and his family having always behaved most kindly to him. ze,iL,Atlzz 6,01)--uit (I . r: rdn IPA t SHARE LIST. oIiDIZIABY SI3AItES AND STOCKS. raid.

The riots at Mold have come before the Lord Chief Justice of the Common fleas (Sir 'William Bovill) at the Flintsbire Assizes. In charging the grand jury his lord ship sr oke at length on the subject of riots. In conclusion, he observed it was sometimes supposed to be necessary, in cases of riots and before active measures were taken, that the Riot Act should be read. It should be publicly known that where the vio lence of the mob was so great as to prevent or obstruct a magistrate in reading the proclamation, greater effect was given by the law to that act of obstruction than if the proclamation had been read. All those who were acting in concert together became amenable to the law, and, if det:th ensued, all would be guilty of murder. He had felt these observations to be necessary, looking at the feeling which had prevailed in this part of the country. There had been an amount of bloodshed which was shocking to think of and dreadful to con template, arising out of the unruly proceedings of men who had in view so inadequate an object. The grand jury found a true bill against the six prisoners who have been in gaol for the past two months on the charge of riot ;they threw out the bill against a seventh man who was admitted tee bail. They also found a true hill against the men who were -charged with conspiracy. When all the other business had been disposed of, the six prisoners were . arraigned, and each pleaded not guilty. Their names are Isaac Jones, 39 ; William CrifEths, 48 ; Rowland Jones, 26; Cower Jones, 18; Richard Jones, 35 ; and William Hughes, 23; and they were indicted for feloniously wounding two persons, with intent to do them grievous bodily harm, and alto with feloniously wounding them with intent to resist and prevent the lawful detainer of two prisoners. Under another indict ment they were charged with unlawfully committing a riot and assaulting the police in the execution of their duty. Mr. Al'lntyre, in his opening speech, submitted to the jury that it was not necessary to shew that either of the prisoners threw a stone, but that all he had to do was to shew that they were in a crowd that was acting in con cert. He should, however, call witnesses to shew that the prisoners were seen throwing stones, and actively en gaged in the attempt to rescue the prisoners. The case is proceeding. TIIE WAR IN NEW ZEALAND. --+ SUCCESSES OF THE COLONISTS. The intelligence from New Zealand is important. A band of rebel Hauhans have surprised the force under Colonel St. John, at Opcpe, killing four officers and a number of privates. There seems to be no doubt that Te Kooti, the too famous Maori leader, is dead, for his body has been recognised lying on the beach at Poverty Bay, where he had been killed after the massacre at Mohaka. Thus the chieftain of the east coast is disposed of, and ono great step has been made towards the termination et the war. Tito Kowaru, the west coast leader, and his forces are also in a difficult plight. Ile is without.a.mmunition of any kind, and his followers are getting very dLsatisfied. The Taranaki Herald hears that they have expressed their willingness to surrender, if tiny thought they should not be killed. Tito Kowaru wishes to make for Mukau, but the friendlies are determined to intercept him if be does. It will thus to seen that the Maori cause on both sides of the nos th Liam] is on the wane. cAz:rsicrT IN TIIE INTERIOR. Put there is much to be done yet. It will be rememb, red that the last mail brought news of all the troops on both the east and the west coast having joined their forces- to the number of 1,500 men—for a grand raid into the interior. Previously the war had been carried on only on the coasts. There was a west coast force and an east coast force, against corresponding detachments of rebels under Tito Kowaru and Te Kooti respectively. But the tactics have now been changed. All the detachments of colonial levies and friendly natives have been united, and the combined army has made an expedition into the heart of the country. The account of this can-paign forms quite a new feature in New Zealand warfare. The country into which the men have penetrated —the gorges and def►les of this wild region, through which no European army has ever before entered, has been scoured with impunity by the colonial force, who have suffered great hardships and privations in doing so. The New Zealand Herald gives the following account of this expedition, and of a severe fight which took place in the course of it:—" The expeditions from the Bayof Plenty both met at Ruatahuna, the very heart of the Uriwera country, on the Bth instant. Both columns had met with some resistance on the way, and had encountered verygreat difficulties and hardships. Ruatahuna is the most popu lated part of the district, and was found to be full of culti vations all along the valley. Here there was an unfinished pah, from which the Uri weras had fired upon Lieut.-Colonel St. John, but had not attempted to defend it, preferring to manmuvre about it in the adjacent bush. Ultimately Lieutenant-Colonel St. John drove them off, and encamped just as the other column came in sight. The Uriweras, contrary to expectation, did not retreat and collect at any particular place, hut remained perched on the tops of . the adjacent mountains, watching the destruction of their plantations. The force remained at Rutahuna till the 14th, employ'ng itself in foraging and destroying the crops, and in partial skirmishes. It was ultimately found impossible to carry out the proposed diversion to Waikamoana, for several reasons, among which the chief was the whole of the natives, including the bearers of ammunition, refused to go there, representing that neither ♦s ere provisions nor canoes to be found at the lake by which they could be brought. It has turned out that the third column was not able to reach the opposite side in time, so it is fortunate that more was not attempted. The whole food of the tribe is destroyed; twenty dead bodies have been found, but, as the bush is the densest our troeps have yet pene trated, this is not supposed to represent anything like their loss. Fifty prisoners (chiefly women) have been captured, and a considerable quantity of arms and ammunition, and horses, cattle, and plunder of all kinds have been brought out. Contrary to expectation, and to all their former cus toms, the Uriweras have not dared to molest either column on its return. This had been always expected, and it has shewn how discouraged the tribe must be by its reverses. There have been many skirmishes ; but our total loss is twelve killed and wounded, among whom Sub-Inspector Travers, A.C., and Lieutenant White, of Opotiki, both shot dead. The troops are employed in preparing the road for dray transport, and in collecting supplies. In a week or ten clays it will be able to take post anywhere in the Taupo district, with an abundant reserve of supplies. The Europeans have borne their unusual hardships with great pluck, and have shown the greatest eagerness on each occasion to get at the enemy. No account of the country could have proved more correct than Mr. Hunter Brown's. The Arawas and Ngatiawas, when it is considered how much they dreaded that couutry, have done well too. In those mountains so many of their fore fathers have been slaughtered that they naturally had some fear that they might not be more fortunate. They have, however, come back full of " loot," and are dismissed to their homes. Colonel Whitmore is ill, and has come up in the Sturt, but will return in her when she is loaded. Mr. Justice Mott has appointed Arr. Campl)ell Foster, it r. Lushingion, Mr. Sills, and the Iron. Chando Leigh to the vacant revising barristerships upon the Mid. land Circuit. A Vicious Hoitsiz.—One of the lads employer in the racing stables of Sir Joseph Hawley, at Kingsclere was seriously injured a few days ago. He was leading Rosicrucian, when that powerful horse reared, and knocker him down. His head was severely lacerated by the animal's forefeet. The horse then began trampling on tht lad, and also bit him, leaving the marks of his teeth on th lad's face. Assistance was soon rendered, otherwise th vicious brute might havc inflicted injuries of a still mor - - ItaklliShiend4Es mare Hallways. st Bristol and Exeter ...... 100 75 77 st Caledonian ............ 130 80 82 st Cambrian. 20 Cornwall . ... all 21 3 st Dublin & Belfast Juno... 100 77 79 at Dun„Pcrth, & Ab.Jona... 100 70 72 2.)

OSBORNE, August 8. Her Majesty, accompanied by Princess Louise, drove out yesterday afternoon. The Queen, accompanied by their Royal High nesses Prince and Princess Christian, Princess Louise, Prince Arthur, P. i nee Leopold and Princess Beatrice, and the ladies and gentlemen in waiting, attended Divine service this morning at Whip pingham Church. SPOR7 G NOTES. There are three small meetings this week, viz., Windsor, Wolverhampton, and Egham. There will be very small fields at the former. The Clewer Stakes ought to be won by Ilawthornden, and the August Handicap by Alpenstock. The Egham programme has plenty of horses s:t down. Sphynx and La Mon. se iu the Betting Stand Plate, Myosostis ilnd Riga iu the Runnymede Stakes, and Fflou and Hester in the Coopar's Hill Nursery, are all worth looking after, and the runuieg for these events will be a good guide to specula tors on the Duke of Edinburgh's Cup, Baron's Stakes, Ilandicrp • Sweepstakes, and Princess of Wales's Plate on the following day. The King John Stakes will hardly bring out Temple, who missed his Brighton and Lewes engagements; but there is a probability of another struggle be tween the Blue Bell c and Green Riband, and the latter will meet Mr. Bevill's representative on 91b better terms than he did on Friday last. This ought to turn the tatles in favour of Blue 8211 c. The Surrey and Middlesex will fall to one of the light weights, Young Fenton being very leniently treated. There arc fourteen left in the Wolverhampton Stakes, including King's Cros. He reads less taking than Kidderminster and Dalby, of the other top weights, while these will probably knock under to Adolphus, 3 yrs, 7st 41b, whose Goodwood form seems good enough to stand on. Pearl feather is well in the Enville Plate, but she paid forfeit for her other engagements, and may not show for this, in which case the two-ye..r old Queen of Hearts may be worth standing. Of the lot handicapped for the Staffordshire Nursery, Agnes, Maiden's Blush, the filly by Lacydes, out of Castanette, and Mr. Hodgman's pair —the filly by Kuowsley out of Breeze, and Brother to Vex-- are the best in. Hollaadaise is the best performer in the Eleventh Stamford Biennial, and of the eleven in the Pat3hull Stakes the most notable are The Boy, Storm King, the Skipper, and Fancy Boy. The Tenth Stamford Biennial, on the second day, will fall to Adolphus ; and the Lady Evelyn filly and First Emperor are the pick of the fifteen in the Holyoake Stakes, as Acorn, 4 yrs, Bst. 121 b., is of the sever. left in the Borough Members' Plate. The nominations for the Cleveland Cup include Sagittt.rius, Formosa, See-Saw, Silenus, Vagabond, and Vulcan, and it is rather improbable that For mosa will go to the post. See-Saw and Silenus, too, are doubtful starters, and in their absence Vagabond. There is very little doing on the St. Leger, but Pretender keeps very firm, and there is an inclination to knock Pero Gomez to the outside division. Ile is doing well, and will become a favourite before the day of the race. HORSES STRUCK OUT OF THEIR ENGAGE MENTS.

PI7TNEY, One o'Clock. Those who visited Putney this morning were gratified with seeing the American crow go faster than they have ever gone before since they have been here, and that too against wind and tide, in the Loudon Rom ing Club four, with two new English oars aft and two American forward. The crew sat the boat as follows:-_ Bow—Lyman 3. Simmons. 2. Feye Stroke—Loring. She went cons . derably better than either of their own boats, and the two now men in the bow were evidently a great acquisition, as they possess more stamina than the others, and row in better form, at about 40 strokes a minute, they went at a clipping pace against wind and tide quite as far as Crab Tree, round the Horseshoe Fght, and then eased, continuing at e. more moderate Dace to Hammersmith, where they turned and came down very fast on the ebb; the change of the stroke was evidently for the better, yet among other things they have to learn to reach forward more ; with two entirely new hands, however, rowing and time was excellebt, and offers were made to take 5 to 2 ; the ques tion is whether they cau stay, and until the day of the race that will not be found oat. Tha Oxonians arrive here on Wednesday, and then the day of the race will b e fixed definitely. The Americans' new boat will be ready to-morrow. - SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
