MORGAN. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. THAMES. THIS DAY'S MARKETS. RITIES. LAW INTELLIGENCE.--(THIS DAY), This was an appeal from the decision of Vice-Chancellor Wood, dismissing the plaintiff's bill. The plaintiff filed his bill for specific performance of an agreement for the lease of a clay field for making fire-bricks, glass, and china, at Tenby, Wales, at a tonnage royalty. Q.C., was heard in reply for the appellant. The Lord Chancellor reserved judgment till first day of next term, and rose for the long vacation. The Lord Chancellor refused Mrs. Cobbett's application on affidavit for the release of her husband from prison. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner Pane.) • His Honour was the only sitting Commissioner, and the only cases in thelist were three choioes, and these were not of the slightest interest. APPLICATION FOR DISCHARGE FROM CUSTODY. Mr. Chidley, of Basinghall-street, appeared on behalf of a bankrupt, named Lawson, to apply for his discharge from custody. The bankrupt was described as of Bombay, and late of Fenchurch-street, ship and insurance broker. Mr. Anderson, a solicitor and execution creditor, said he wished to put a few questions to the bankrupt before any order was made. The bankrupt, in answer to the question put to him, said the only tangilale property at present was £3OO, due to him from the Government at Bombay. He had been compelled to come from that place very suddenly (per overland route), having been called home, and could he have remained but a day or two longer ho would have had the mony. After he had arrived in England his solicitors, Messrs. Martin, Son, and Elar, sent out a power of attorney to a Parsee, in whom he had great confidence, to receive the money—this being 12 months since. Up to this time he had received no ex planation on the point ; but from other sources it was as certained that the money was still in the hands of the Go vernment. He had been engaged in the transport of troops during the war, and had a claim of £1,343, but it had been referred to arbitration. His Honour—How long have you been in prison ? Bankrupt—Fifteen tannthg. His Honour—Why did you remain• in prison so long? Bankrupt—l was in expectation of receiving the £1,343. Mr. Anderson would reserve any further questions till the balance-sheet. His Honour granted the immediate discharge. POLICE INTELLIGENCE-( THIS DA E) ARTFUL ROBBERY AT A WATCHMAKER'S.—Henry Johnson, a shabby-looking man, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with stealing a timepiece of the value of £6, the property of Mr. A. Thomson, watchmaker, 25, New Bond street, under the following artful circumstances : From the evidence of William Henstock, porter to Mr. Thomson, it appeared that while taking down the shop shutters this morning, about half-past seven, a man came up to him and asked to be directed to Gloucester-street, St. James's, evidently for the purpose of distracting his attention from the shop door. Having told the man there was no such street he left, and as he (witness) was return ing to the shop he saw the prisoner emerging from the doorway with something bulky under his coat. Ho fol lowed him into Evans's yard, where the prisoner threw the timepiece in a dung -pit ; and on his telling him he had stolen something he said, " Oh, you are mistaken." He then gave him in charge, and on going back to the pit found the timepiece, glass, and stand, the property of his master. Sergeant Bazin proved taking prisoner into custody, and said he had been at the court before. Prisoner being asked if he was guilty nodded an affirma :ye, and _ _ Mr. Tyrwhitt having stated his belief that it was a planned robbery, committed him for three months with hard labour, SAVAGE ASSAULT BY A MANILLA SAILOR.—SiStO Rogue, a native of Manilla, belonging to a Spanish ship in the London Dock, was brought before Mr. Yardley, charged with assaulting Michael Kelly, a boy, who appeared in court with a severe bruise on his face and his lips swollen. The complainant is a shoeblack, and was soliciting custom near the London Dock, when the prisoner and some of his countrymen, who were all the worse for liquor, made their appearance, and began skylarking. The prisoner kicked the complainant's box of blacking and brushes into the road, and while the boy was picking them up, he stepped back and then ran towards him and kicked him violently on the mouth, and, according to the evidence of one of the witnesses, " set the boy all in a pour of blood," and from the evidence of another, " the boy was smothered in blood." Mr. Yardley said that few witnesses could give their evidence without exaggeration, or being figurative. No doubt the boy lost some blood. There was, however, no oecaAion to exaggerate matters. The prisoner, a very ordinary specimen of the Manilla people, said he was ill-used and thrown down by the shoe black boys. He called no witnesses; and it was proved that it was not until after the prisoner had wantonly in jured the poor and industrious Irish boy's property and brutally kicked him that other boys interfered somewhat roughly, and secured the Manillaman. Mr:Yardley was in hopes the prisoner had kicked the boy by accident. It was not so, and the prisoner must pay a fine of 405., or be imprisoned one month. CORN EXCHANGE. To-day's market was very scantily supplied with home grown wheat, coastwise and by land-carriage. Owing chiefly to the unfavourable change in the weather, the de mand for all kinds was firm, and Monday's prices were freely supported. We were well supplied with foreign wheat. Importers were very firm, and several parcels changed hands for in land consumption at extreme rates. Floating cargoes com manded very full prices. Nearly the whole of the barley on show was disposed of, and the quotations had an upward tendency. Malt was a slow inquiry, but not cheaper. The oat trade was very firm, and good scund parcels were rather dearer. Beans, peas, and flour commanded quite Monday's cur rency. ARRIVALS THIS WEEK. Wheat. Barley. Malt. Oats. Flour.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.' THE IVALTVOTii MURDERS. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—(THIs DAY.) The SP]IAKER took the chair at a quarter past twelve o'clock. CHURCH RATES. Mr. HUBBARD gave notice that early next session ire would bring in a bill to amend the law relating to churth- rates. UNION OF BENEFICES BILL, Cn the motion for going into committee on this bill, Mr. D. GRIFFITH complained of the manner in which public business was conducted. The present bill was brought down ready made from the House of Lords at a period of the session when it could not pass without a dis cussion. The fact of the bill being brought before the House of Commons at that period of the session, and so early in the day, when they could scarcely muster a sufficient number of members to make a house, rendered it impossible that the measure could receive the necessary discussion. This was not properly legislating on a measure of such im portance._____ Mr. HENLEY said that in this bill the bishop, the clergy, and the patrons were well cared for. Me objected to that part of the bill which related to the removal of the dead, and he certainly would divide the house on that point. The house then went into committee on the bill. Mr. GRIFFITH said there was no one on the Ministe rial bench who was responsible for the bill, and he would move that the chairman report progress. Mr. B OTJVERIE said that the bill had undergone much discussion in the Upper House. It was in his charge, and he brought it on as early as was in his power. Mr. JOHN LOCKS considered thaethe members of tho City of London ought to have had charge of the bill. It certainly had nothing to do with Kilmarnock. (Hear, hear.) The Bishop of London had opposed the demolition of churches in the City for the purpose of making London bridge. He was not of opinion that London was destitute of churches; but if they placed clergymen in them who could not preach, of course congregation* would not be at tracted. evening. Mr.CRAWFORD, as one of the members of the City of London, said he thought it would not be courteous to the hon. member for Kilmarnock to take the bill out of his hands, simply because he represented• one of the five cities affected by the bill. The measure was introduced into the other house by the Bishop of London, and its provisions were well known. Mr. AYRTON supported the bill, and said that the pre sent state of things was most objectionable. The only question was as to the mode in which a remedy should be applied, and he hoped the house would be rational enough to prefer the interests of Le souls of the living to the bones of the dead. Let the bones of the dead be treated with respect, as no doubt they would be under the provisions of the bill, but he trusted it would not be said that when the making of a dock or railway was concerned, it was quite easy to have churches and the bones in church yards removed. There was no difficulty experienced, but• when the interests of religion were involved it was another ease altogether. He hoped that, although the bill might be amended in passing through committee, its main object would receive the support of the house. (Wear, hear.) Mr. Alderman CUBITT said it could not be denied that several churches would require to be removed, and in one place there were about fifty-eight churches in an area of about half a square m He considered it was obvious that same remedy was fequired for the existing evils, and he thought all the details might be arranged without diffi culty. Mr. HUBBARD said that he did not think the house were sufficiently acquainted with the principle of the bill. Wei() the house aware of the manner in which the bill was read a second time ? At a quarter to one o'clock in the morning an hon. gentleman was asleep at the end of one of the benches. He was roused by a touch of the elbow and the words, " Union of Benefices Bill." He then jumped up and all he (Mr. Mibbard) heard was the word " Monday, and he discovered that the bill had actually passed a second reading. (Laughter.) Under these circumstances he con sidered that the , bill required at least a little more illustra tion. Against the bill of 1854 there was a very general feeling outside the house, and why, he would ask, should a bill conferring equally large powers be introduced ? Why should not the arrangements of a certain group, which re quired amendation, be made the subject of a specific pro position ? Mr. BOUVERIE said that this bill hal been on the table of the house six weeks, and no objection was made to its principles. The fact was, that the present state of things required great improvement, as it presented a very ano malous condition. In some parishes with a population of 50,000 or 60,000 there were 50 or 60 churches, while other parishes were without any adequate provision. In other places there were no congregations, owing to the ground being occupied with warehouses. After some discussion it was 'agreed by the hon. member in charge of the bill that its operation should be limited to the metropolis. The amendment was negatived without a division. Clause 1 Was agreed to. On clause 2, Mr. MALINS said that he did not consider the house possessed the necessary materials for legislating on this subject at present, and concluded by moving that the chair man leave the chair. After some remarks from Mr. Ayrton, Mr. Crauford, Mr. Henley, Sir G. Lewis, and other non. members, the house divided. For the amendment l6 Against 76 Majority. The clause was then agreed to, with some alteration, as were clauses 3 to 6 inclusive. On clause 7, Mr. HADFIELD wished to be informed what was meant by the words "spiritual destitution" in the bill. Was it merely to be understood as meaning Church desti tution, ignoring altogether the spiritual iusttaction sup plied by the Nonconformist body. [LEFT SITTING.] COURSE OF EXCHANGE.-YESTERDA.T.

The court was crowded to suffocation, not the least pre caution seeming to have been made by the police to keep even the passages in the justice-room clear, and the seats at the table usually appropriated to solicitors (and reporters on special occasions) were filled by persons who had obtained orders of admission merely to gratify a morbid curiosity. The prisoner, who is in custody of Mr. Inspector Whicher, walked into the dock with a firm step, and with out betraying the least concern. The first witness called was John Mathew Youngman, of No. 2, Francis-street, Newington Butts. He said the prisoner was his•brother. The last time he saw his mother alive was at 16, Manor place, on the Monday previous to the discovery of the murder. John Youngman, the prisoner's father, then gave his evidence, which was merely a recapitulation of the evidence he gave at the coroner's inquest. . _ Prisoner—Did you not make some observations to mother that made her cry on the evening previous to the murder ? Witness—No, nothing. I did not see your mother that Prisoner—What, not about dripping ? Witness—Well now you bring that to my mind, I recol lect I did see your mother thatevening, and I did say some thing to her on that subject. The agitated state of my mind had entirely driven away all recollection of anything." I recollect seeing her, and she brought me a hat and asked me to try it on. She said, " Tom has been to get &my:l dripping, and the cook has given him a hat." I did try it on, but it was too small for me. More than that, i said Thomas should not go backwards and forwards to get the dripping for any one any more, as there was more trouble than enough. The boy had put the dripping into the hat and spoilt it. Prisoner—Are you sure you had no other words ? Witness—lf you can being anything to my recollection I am here to speak the truth, I will answer the•, n , Prisoner—Did you not have words with ;ter in the after noon. Witness —Yes. I went to my son John's, and had my dinner. They were not angry woreas. The reason I did so was that it was not ready at horlie, and I would not wait. While I was at home a person came to put a lock on your box. Prisoner—Did you give nrather any money that day? Witness--No. I had none to give her. Prisoner —Did you give her any the day before ? Witness—No, but John gave her 2s. Money ran short with me that Saturdry night. It was 2s. I've got is. 6d. of it now. It WaLi found teed up in her pocket. I don't know who tied the pocket up. Prisoner—l've nothing else to ask you. Mrs. Beard next gave her evidence, which has already appeared in The Sun. The prisoner did not put any questions to this witness. Mr. Bevan, the landlord of the house, was next called. He said the only addition he wished to add to the evidence already give's was, that the prisoner said in his hearing that his mo:.lter had committed the murders, and that he (prisoner) had killed her in self-defence. The prisoner he: e complained of the non-attendance of his solicitor, Mr. Neale, whom he had seen in prison, and who promised to be in attendance. It was here intimated that a gentleman was in attend ance from Mr. Neale's office. Inspector Dunn here recapitulated his evidence with re spect to finding the policy of assuran-3, and the letters of the prisoner to the deceased Mary Wells Streeter. He pro duced a plan of the landing with the position of the doors on the second floor of 16, Manor-p - - tee. Elizabeth Wootton, a servant at Mr. Duncan's, said the prisoner lived in that service about three months. He left about a fortnight ago. The letter dated July 13 she be lieved to be in his handwriting. [This letter referred to her fellow servant as the person who was to act as brides maid at the prisoner's wedding with Mary Wells Streeter.] The other letters produced she also believed to be written by the prisoner, as she had seen him write, and he had told her he was writing to Mazy Wells Streeter. She had heard him talk about insuring her life. The letters produced at the inquest were then read by the clerk. Mr. Tanner, clerk in the Argus Life Assurance office, next gave his evidence. This has also been published. Samuel Wells Streeter, the father of the deceased, • was asked if he had anything to add to his former evidence, and he replied that he had not. Mr. Edward Spice, landlord of the Green Dragon public house, Bermondsey-street, said—l am on reiendly terms with the Streeters. On 23d July Mary with the prisoner came to see me. They left about eleven o'clock. They came again on the 25th, and I then asked the prisoner what his intentions were with respect to the girl. He said he was independent and would marry her. I said, "You must have a good lot of money t ) provide for suchagirlas Mary Streeter. He said after marriage they intended to live at Hastings. I after wards said to the girl Mary, " Does your father know of this marriage. I don't like the look of the young man at all." I afterwards told him so. I said I was afraid he meant her no good. I then asked Mary Streeter to go into the bar parlour and have nothing more to do with him. I told her I would see her safe home again. I next saw the pri soner in the parlour. I said to him, "I don't like the look of you, and I would rather see the girl take a rope and hang herself than marry such a fellow as you." The pri soner made no remark, but shortly, afterwards left my house. Superintendent Penn, P division of Police, said—l went to Manor •pls.ce on the day following the murder. I took possession of a small black box, which was pointed out to me by the prisoner's father. I saw it opened at the station-house by Inspector Dunn, and the policy was lying at the top. He told me his mother had committed the murders. I asked him about the knife, and he said it was his, and that he had had it in possession but a short time, and that he used it to cut his bread and cheese with. Mr. Boddy, the surgeon whose evidence was next re quired, not having arrived, The depositions were then read over to the witnesses, and they were severally bound over to appear at the Cen tral Criminal Court and give evidence against the prisoner on four indictments, charging him with wilful murder. On the arrival c•f the witness, Dr. Boddy, he imme diately took his place in the witness-box and proceeded to repeat• the evidence as to the wounds given at the inquest on the bodies of the deceased persons,which was very fully reported in The Sun of last evening. The prisoner listened with great attention, but with per fect calmness to the surgeon's narrative of the various injuries the murdered persons had sustained. The Magistrate then cautioned the prisoner in the usual way! - _ - the prisoner said—l am not guilty of any of the charges against me, excepting killing my mother in self-defence. That is all I have to say. The magistrate then committed him for trial at the next Cessions for the Central Criminal Court, but as Inspector Whither, who has charge of the case, will not be able to get up the evidence in a complete foam for the sessions which commence on Monday next, an appl'ca tion will be made for the postponement of the trial until September. The application will, of course, be granted. The prisoner was conveyed to Horsemonger-lane Gaol. He was loudly hissed on being placed in the van. During the examination at the police court a young woman sat at the solicitors' table, and frequently sobbed 1 aloud, especially while the letters were read which the pri soner Youngman had addressed to Mary Wells Streeter, and which were found in her writing-desk by her father after her melancholy death. The young woman, on being questioned as to the cause of her grief, stated that the letters were identical in expression with those which the prisoner had addressed to herself many months ago, when he courted her in Staffordshire. Some of these letters she showed to the persons sitting near her, and they were in many cases word for word the same as those before the court. In these letters Youngman, who at that time passed under the name of Godfrey, made violent protestations of love to the young woman, who held a situation in the family of a gentleman in Staffordshire, and, as in the case of Mary Wells Streeter, implored her to allow him to assure her life. He told her also, as he more recently told the unfor tunate Mary Wells Streeter, that he was possessed of inde pendent property, and that he should have plenty of money after his marriage, but that meanwhile the young woman must provide as much as she possibly could to meet the expenses of the wedding day. Curiously also he had made arrangements for the wedding to be celebrated in the parish church of St. Martin-in-the-Fields, in which the banns between him and Mary Wells Streeter were read for the last time on the Sunday immediately preceding the murder. While these negotiations were going on, and after obtain ing the young woman's consent to accompany him to Aus tralia, he committed a burglary, and was sentenced to 12 months' imprisonment. It appears that he pledged his coat to buy the wedding ring, which he left in the charge of the young woman, and she when Youngman was arrested pledged the ring and bought him flannel jackets to wear in prison. He managed to communicate with her and to ob tain from her a promise that she would marry him at the expiration of the term of imprisonment, but before he was liberated she left the place she was in and came to London, and he never saw her again until yesterday morning, when, by the permission of the police authorities, she was admitted to his room upon the condition that they wero not to shake hands or to communicate with each other in any way except in the presence of the police. The prisoner appeared to be astounded when the young woman entered the room ; hi placed both hands before his face, turned away from her, and could not be induced to say a word. She sat below him in the police court nearly the whole of the day, but he never looked to.. wards her, keeping his eyes steadily fixed upon the wit nesses as one after another appeared in the box. The young woman also states that when the prisoner was introduced to her father agi her future husband, ho made very strong objections, observing that he did not believe that ho was a man of independent property, and that he did not at all like the look of him. He strongly advised his daughter to break off the match, but she fancied that her father was unreasonably prejudiced, and the correspon dence between them went on until Youngman was con victed of the burglary for which he suffered 12 months' in carceration. The funeral of the unfortunate Mrs. Youngman and her two sons, Charles and Thomas, took place this morning the Woking Cemetery. The bodies were removed lass night from the Newington Workhouse privately, and the only persons in attendance, as mourners, were the husband of the deceased and her son John. It has transpired that insanity will be proved at the trial of more than one member of the family on the mother's side. THE INSWRRECTION IN The following is the text, as published in the Ilioniteur, of the first protocol of the conference held at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on 3d August "His Imperial Majesty the Sultan wishing to arreit, by prompt aid an d efficacious measures, the effusion of blood in Syria, and to show his firm resolutions to assure order and peace among the populations under his sovereignty; and their Ma jesties the Emperor of the French, the Emperor of Austria, and the Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, his Royal Highness the Prince Regent of Prussia, and his Majesty the Emperor of all. the Russias, having offered their active co-operation, which his Majesty the Sultan has accepted, the representatives of their said Majesties and of his Royal Highness have agreed to the following articles Art. 1. A corps of European troops, which may be :raised to twelve thwasand men, shall be despatched to Syria to contribute to the re-esta blishment of tranquillity. " ' Art. 2. His MajeF,ty the Emperor of the French consents to sup ply immediately one-half of that body of troops,. Should it become neces sary to raise the effective to the number stipulated in the preceding a' , t.ticle, the High Powers would without delay com e to an understanding by the usual diplomatic channels, to decide which of them should supply f.he troops required. " Art. 3. "The commandant-in-chief of the ex pedition on arriving, enter into communica tion with the extraordinary commissioner of the Porte, in circler to combine all the measures required by the carcumstnnces, and to take up such positions As it may be necessary to occupy for the purpose of aacomplishinc , the object o f th e present act. " ' Art. 4. accomplishing Majesties the Emperor of the French, the Emperor of Austria, the Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, his Royal Highness the Prince Regent of Prussia, and his Majesty the Emperor of all the Russias, engage to maintain a naval force sufficient to contribute to the success of the common efforts for the re-estab lishment of tranquillity on the coast of Syria. " Art. 5. The High Contracting Parties, being convinced that such a period will suffice to attain. the end of pacification which they have in view, fix at six months the duration of the oempation.of the European troops in Syria. " ' Art. 6. The Sublime Porte engages to facili tate to the utmost of its power the supply of pro visions and stores for the expediti o n ar y corps .' " It is understood that the six preceding articles are to be textually converted into a convention, which shall receive the signatures of the represen tatives undersigned as soon as they have the full. powers of thetr Sovereigns to that effeet ; but that the stipulations of this protocol shall take effect immediately. "The Prussian Charge d'Affaires, however, has observed that the actual distribution of the Prussian vessels of war may not permit his Government to co-operate at present in the execution of Art. 4. " Given at Paris, this 3d day of August, 1860, in. six copies. . "THOTPIENEL, " COWLEY, " KISSELEFF, " METTERNICH, " REUSS, "AIIMET VEVYK." The second Protocol of the conference, held at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on the above-men tioned date, runs thus : " The plenipotentiaries of France, Austria, Great Britain, Prussia, and Russia, wishing, in conformity with the intentions of their respective Courts, to make known the real character of the assistance afforded to the Sublime Porte, according to the terms of the protocol this day signed, as well as the sentiments which dictated to them the clauses of this act and their perfect disinterestedness, de clare, in the most formal manner, that the contract ing Powers have no intention to prosecute, and will not prosecute, in the execution of their en gagements, any territorial advantage, any exclu sive influence, or any concession affecting the com merce of their subjects, and which would not be granted to the subjects of all other nations. " Neverthess, they cannot refrain, while re calling the acts emanating from his Majesty the Sultan, of which Art. 9 of the treaty of the 9th of March, 1856, shows the high value, to express the importance which their respective Courts at tach to the fact that, in conformity with the solemn promises of the Sublime Porte, serious administra tive measures should i be adopted for ameliorating the condition of the Christian population of all communions throughout the Ottoman Empire. " The plenipotentiary of Turkey takes cogni sance of this declaration of the representatives of the High Powers, and undertakes to transmit it to his Court, at the same time observing that the Sublime Porte has exerted and will continue to exert its efforts in realising the wish above ex pressed. " Given at Paris, the 3d day of August, 1860, in six copies. " THOUVENEL, " COWLEY, " KISSELEFF, " METTERNICH, " REUSS, " AHMET VEFYK." PLAIN SPEAKING OF MR. COBDEN. The Paris correspondent of the New York Herald, in his account of the celebration of " Ame rican Independence Day" at Paris, gives us a report of Mr. Cobden's opinion on English topics : " Mr. Cobden and his wife and daughter were there ; Sir Joseph 011iffe, physician to the American as well as the English Embassy, and the correspondent of the New York lierali were among the few English. Among the French was Prince Polignac. About six o'clock the dancing ceased in order to listen to an address from Mr. Faulkner, concluded with a reading of the American Declaration of Independence. Mr. Faulkner is not a fluent speaker, but everything he said was appropriate to the occasion and in good taste. He alluded to the assistance America had received from France in her hour of distress in terms of warm eulogy, and, while dwelling in. strong language on the conduct of the British., made a graceful allusion to the fact of some indivi duals of the old country being present on that oc casion. At the conclusion of the reading of the Declaration three cheers were called for, and every hat, hand, and handkerchief was raised, while the welkin rang with the vociferous cheers the children of America poured forth with patriotic energy. Some of the English were thanked by the smiles and courtesies of the ladies for their hearty parti cipation in the scene. ' Oh,' said one of them in my hearing, with visible emotion, whatever may be said or done, there is not a child in America that does not love with all his heart the old, old country, the land of his fathers, the proud proge nitors of his race.' Pity, said kr. Cobden, in his mild, benevolent manner, the separation had not taken place without fighting. We are both better as we are, only we do not think of this in time. There was no other speaking. Mr. Cobden was, of course, one of the lions of the evening, and charmed all by the cordial and flattering eulogies he passed upon the people of the United States. Prince Polignac, by his own desire, was introduced to him by Sir Joseph 011iffe. Mr. Cob den particularly expatiated upon the rapid strides America was making in the arts, and mentioned some beautiful specimens of sculpture he had him self inspected, by native artists. He said that when America began, as she would before lo n g, to compete with the best European artists in this department, many who at present were blind to her wonderful progress would begin to open their eyes. He instanced the Marquis of Lansdowne. When, said he, I spoke to the old man about the gigantic strides of the United States, he listened benignly, but not curiously ; but when I spoke of facts connected with the arts, and said that the time was approaching when their specimens would be gladly received as imports in England, the old man pricked up his ears and seemed struck with astonishment.' Mr. Cobden talked much of the tedium he had to go through in. respect of the commercial treaty between France and England. He evidently found the French very little in all their commercial notions, mon. strously fond of money, but all after a penurious fashion. Of the Emperor he spoke in terms of unqualified praise. He thought his views large, and his objects thoroughly honest. He did not believe there was the slightest occasion for the present alarm on the part of England, and that the whole existing pani c was s timulated by a r ti• ficial means. Th e war c l ass —always the ari s t o , cratic—had, he said, a substantial interest in the lavish war expenditure. Every additional ship built and fitted out whetted the appetit e f o r more good things, and so it went on. O ne th i ng was intolerable, and that was the volunteer system. Either the additional £ 30 ,000,000 are sufficient for the defence of the country or they are not, said he, and the volunteer system is only lighting the candle at both ends, for the Ministers' demands being sup plied, the people are giving him the forco their supplies have enabled him to buy. The conse quence is, jobbery is more rife than evor. .He thought it a sad mistake permitting the Queen to fire off the first rifle at the rifle competi:tion, and that Prince Albert's rifle monomania was ~simply so much Germanism under . the mas k o f English patriotism." at I MANCHESTER TRADE REPORT.—MANI *JHESTER, Tuesday.—The depression still c o nti nu es in ft, is marke t. There is a daily drooping of prices, an d the don sand is con siderably below the supply both in yarn s and al at in cloths. The export merchants are indisposed to buy, at Lticipating still lower prices. The home trade, for the I gal, no reason, buy only sparingly ; and generally the market i aster and duller than lad week. EXTRAORDINARY METEOR The New York papers contain diagrams and lengthy accounts of a very brilliant meteor which appeared on the 20th. The _Herald alludes to it as follows :—" At about a quarter before 10 o'clock on Friday evening, the atmosphere being very sultry, and no perceptible motion in the air, a light cloud appeared in the west, from which a blue-tinted lu minous globule shot out, which at the first glance suggested to the spectators the idea of an artificial firework. Instantly it lost its globular form, burst ing, like an immense skyrocket, into four portions. The first two are represented by one of our corre spondent as resembling brilliantly illuminated chan deliers, with innumerable jets of purple flame ; the others were globular, and comparatively small, appearing rather as the tails of the first. They main tained their relative distance as they flew athwart the sky from west to east, occupying in their flight something like a minute. Whether they vanished in air or fell on the land or sea we have not yet as certained. About a minute after their passage a detonation was heard, as from a piece of ordnance ; but whether it proceeded from the bursting of the meteor is a matter of conjecture. One very curious optical delusion which it gave rise to is worthy of remark. To the spectators it appeared to be no higher than from a quarter to half a mile, and to be almost directly over their heads ; and yet, when the fact is considered that it was witnessed under almost identical circumstances at Philadelphia, some 90 miles south-west of New York; at New Haven, 80 miles east ; at Barnegat, 40 miles south ; and at Newburg, on the Hudson, 60 miles north, it will be perceived that the idea of its insignificant eleva tion was most delusive. It must have been at an immense elevation to have been seen at these widely remote points, and to have presented at all of them the same appearance of being so nearly in the zenith. It is also to be remarked, in connection with the meteor, that for the previous two or three nights brilliant flashes of the aurora borealis have illumined the northern skies—a most unusual dis play in the dogdays, and one which we only look for in the late fall and winter months. The aurora is generally supposed to indicate clear cold weather, but in this case it has been followed by an oppres sively sultry state of the atmosphere, thus contra dicting our previously conceived notions. It is also very closely connected in point of time with the solar eclipse, which took place last Wednesday I morning." SERIOUS RIOT ON THE BORDER UNION RAIL WAY.- On Thursday last, Chief Constable Everitt and Sergeant Guild, of the Roxburghshire constabulary, ac companied by two constables, proceeded to the works on the Border Union Railway at Shankend, about nine miles from Hawick, to apprehend a navvie for an offence com mitted near Stirling. The man was informed by the con stable that he was to go to the Turf Hotel to be examined, and at first he proceeded quietly along with them. After proceeding a short way, however, he wished to return for his coat, to which the police objected. He then endeavoured to escape from them, when he was seized and thrown down, and the police, after considerable trouble, succeeded in pitting a handcuff on one arm. The struggle having been observed by a party of navvies, they ran to the rescue, and cried to the prisoner to kick the officers. He followed their advice, but wou ld have eventually been overpowered had not his'companions rushed on to assist him and force a rescue. The man's wife was very active in endeavouring to assist her husband. Sergeant Guild was severely struck, and cut on the face, and Mr. Everitt received a severe blow on the side from a large stone. Another man ran and swore he would stab the chief constable with a pitchfork, which he pointed at him, if he did not leave off. The police were compelled, under the circumstances, to abandon the attempt to secure the man. The leaders in the rescue are well known. — Caledonian Mercury. THIS DAY'S SHIPPING. LONDON, Aug.
