THE STRIKE IN TIIE BUILDING TRADE.-CON V. TAYLOR, This was a plaint to recover an amount alleged to be due for goods supplied to defendant's wife. Plaintiff said that he had applied to defendant for the sum in question, and the debt had been admitted. Defendant said he never authorised his wife to contract debts in his name. He was in the Crimea at the occurring of the present claim, and during his absence he left his wife 30s. per week. When plaintiff called defendant only said he would consider about it. His Honour thought the admission was made out, and found for plaintiff. Defendant—l hope your Honour will give me time. I am one of the men who are unfortunately locked out by the masters. His Honour—l don't see that that is any reason for my giving you time. In my opinion it is the men's own fault. You must pay 20s. per month. SINGULAR APPLICATION FOR A NEW TRIAL.-LEVY V. SCIIOT. This was an application for a new trial under peculiar circumstances. It appeared that in August last, on the 19th, the cause was on the list for hearing. Mr. Beard was engaged for defendant, and that gentleman made arrange ments with the officers of the court to have the case held over until a certain period, as he had to attend another court. Mr. Beard, however, did not return in time, and defendant not appearing, judgment was entered for plaintiff. . . . Mr. Beard now stated that the fault was entirely his own, and the bailiff could prove that he arrived in court but a very few minutes after such judgment was entered. The money was paid into court. _ . _ . _ His Honour—ls there an rffidavit ? Mr. Beard—lt was a personal matter, and I am willing to be sworn. His Honour—That is quite unnecessary. Plaintiff was of opinion that defendant was not near the court on the last hearing. Mr. Beard— He was outside, waiting for me. His Honour granted a new trial—costs to abide the result. CRIMINAL COURT.-( THIS DAY.) OLD COURT. (Before Mr. Justice Byles.) THE MURDER ON THE HIGH SEAS. Charles Annois, aged 23, a seaman, who had been brought up by habeas from Falmouth, the offence for which the pri soner was charged having been committed within the juris diction of the Admiralty, was indicted for the wilful murder of Philip Barber, the master of a vessel in which the pri soner had been employed as cook. The prisoner pleaded " Not guilty." Mr. Sleigh appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Met calfe, instructed by Mr. Beard on the part of the Portuguese Consul, for the prisoner. Mr. Metcalfe said, in this case he was instructed to apply for a postponement of the trial of the prisoner on account of some circumstances that had, since the committal of the prisoner, come to the kno*ledge of the consul. The facts of this unfortunate case he admitted were pretty clear and conclusive, but there was some reason to be lieve that at the time he was not of sound mind. The prisoner had been twice confined in a lunatic asy lum at Lisbon, and had also suffered severely from yellow fever, and the ground of his application for the postpone ment of the trial was to give an opportunity for inquiries being made at Lisbon on the subject. He simply asked that the cause should be postponed until the neat sessions. He understood his learned friend would offer no objection. Mr. Sleigh said he was instructed on the part of the pro secution, and offered no opposition to the application, but it was a case which he would rather leave in the hands of the Court. The learned Judge said there ought to be an affidavit to support the application. Mr. Metcalfe said the Consul would make an affidavit that he had been informed and believed that the prisoner had been confined in a lunatic asylum at Lisbon. At a subsequent period of the day such affidavit was pro duced, and the trial postponed. JUVENILE DEPRAVITY, Thomas Goodfellow, a diminutive boy, between 10 and 11 years of age, was indicted for stealing two post letters, containing a bill of exchange and sundry papers, the property of the Postmaster-General. Mr. Clarke and Mr. Metcalfe appeared for the prosecu tion. Mr. Giffard, at the request of the Sheriffs, defended the prisoner. The circumstances of the case, although a great many witnesses were examined, lie in a very narrow compass. The prisoner was employed as an errand boy in the service of Mr. James Willis, a grocer in the Bow-road, who keeps the receiving-house for that district, and was suffered, contrary to the instructions of the Post-office authorities, to take the letters, from time to time, out of the receiving-box, and about the 18th August, Mr. Willis, on the ground of a belief of the prisoner's dishonesty, gave him a letter to his mother, whose husband is at sea, requesting her to come to him. This letter the prisoner never delivered, and on in quiries being made, and the prisoner examined, the two letters is question, were found in his pockets, the one containing a foreign bill of exchange, for £l7 7s. 9d., and the other papers of no value. The pri soner gave very contradictory accounts as to the man ner in which they came into his possession, but it was certain they had been stolen but two days before, as it was proved they had been then posted in the letter-box at Mr. 'Willis's shop. After some inquiries, the Post-office authorities thought it was a case for their prosecuting, with the charitable view of checking the boy in his early career of crime. Mr. Giffard objected that there was not sufficient evi dence to show that the prisoner, who was between seven and fourteen years of age, had such knowledge as to make him criminally responsible for the act he had committed. The learned judge having summed up, The jury found the prisoner guilty, The learned judge sentenced the prisoaer to 14 days' im prisonment ; at the expiration of that term to be kept in a reformatory for five years. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. ROBBERY OF JEWELLERY BY A. CHARWOMAN. — EIiza Jess, a charwoman, was charged before Mr. Beadon with stealing two brooches, three pins, and four rings, the pro perty of Mr. T. Stammers, grocer, Swallow-place, St. George's. From the evidence of the prosecutor it appeared that, en the 15th inst., the prisoner was charing at his house, and from what his wife told him, he looked at a drawer in his bedroom and missed a little box. containing two brooches, two pins, and four rings. He then gave information to the police, and on the previous night he went to the place where the prisoner resided, taking with him a detective, when the prisoner at once, upon his (prosecutor) saying he supposed she knew what he had come for, handed him a duplicate. The articles produced in court the prosecutor identified as his property. Thomas Weymouth, assistant to Mr. Aldis, pawnbroker, Berwick-street, produced the articles pledged by the pri soner on the 15th inst. Charles Brown, 304 A, said on taking the prisoner into custody, and telling her the charge against her, she said she was back in her rent, and pawned them at Mr. Aldis's. Prisoner said she hoped the prosecutor would forgive her for the sake of her child. The prosecutor said he received the best of characters with the woman. _ • Mr. Beadon said it was a bad case, and committed the prisoner for trial. STEALING WORKHOUSE CLOTHES.—George Shore, 36, was charged with stealing a suit of workhouse clothes, the property of the authorities of St. George's, Hanover-square. From the evidence of the porter of the workhouse, in Mount-street, it appeared that on the 20th of June pri soner, who had been in the workhouse for about 12 months as wardsman, was sent with an order for admission to the house at Chelsea, but instead of going there he absconded, and nothing further was seen of him till the previous day, when he came and demanded his own clothes which he had left at the workhouse, having on only the workhouse trousers. The prisoner said he did go away, but left his own clothes behind, and if he had taken the workhouse clothes he had not eaten their food. All he wanted was his own clothes that he might be able to get employment. He had been harvesting. The porter further stated that he had taken away some money belonging to a pauper—an old soldier. Mr. Beadon said he should commit him for seven days. THAMES. STABBING A POLICE-CONSTABLE. — After the disposal of the night charges, a man named William Mortimer, a native of Scotland, was brought before Mr. Selfe charged with stabbing John Fry, a police. constable, No. 320 K, with intent to murder him or do grievous bodily harm. Mr. John Brown Ross, jun., surgeon, of High-street, Shadwell, and Commercial-road East, stated that he was the medical officer of the K division of police. This morn ing about one o'clock he was called to see a police-constable named Fry, who had received a severe incised wound on the left thigh two inches in length and two and a quarter inches in depth. It was a dangerous wound, and the in strument with which it was inflicted had penetrated the two uniform coats and the trousers of the policeman. The wound was on the outside of the thigh. He visited tho wounded man again at 11 o'clock that morning. The patient was in a weakly condition, owing to the large quan tity of blood that he had lost. The wound was much in flamed. John Iron, watchman at the Shadwell entrance of the London Dock, said the crew of the ship Resolute, which sailed from the dock this morniug for Melbourne, were very disorderly last night, and some of them were very drunk. They were making a disturbance, and were driven away by the police. The seamen returned again, and were making a noise. Fry, a policeman, was endeavouring to disperse them, and told them to go on board their ship. Directly afterwards he heard the police-constable call out that he 7LLIGENCE, was stabbed, and he saw him fall. The prisoner was then kicking and plunging with a large sheath knife which he had in his hand. He seized the prisoner and secured the knife. The police were leading the prisoner up Foxe's lane, and five of his shipmates attempted to rescue him. He sprung his rattle, and other policemen came up and assisted in securing the prisoner. A large sheath knife, sheath and belt, belonging to the prisoner, was produced, and handed to the magistrate. The prisoner said he was very drunk last night, and lmew, nothing about the matter. Mr. Selfe—You are remanded for a week. John Mortimer and Alexander Robey, Scotchmcm, be longing to the ship Resolute, were charged, the forrr i er with being drunk and disorderly, and the other with attempting to rescue William Mortimer from the custody of the police and striking a constable. Mr. Selfe—The seamen of the Resolute appear to have been very disorderly last night. Is Ole an English ship? Mortimer—No, she is a Scotch ship. Mr. Selfo—That is all the same. You had better go down to the ship at Gravesend as quickly as possible. You are discharged. ENGLAND AND THE ITALIANS. TO TILE EDITOR OF TIIE SEN. SlR,—Wh?,n committees were being formed in Italy and in France for the purpose of contributing 100 pieces of cannon for the armament of the for tress of Alessandria, the thought never arose of considering this gift in the light of a charitable of• fering to the Piedmontese Government or to Italy. It amounted to a mere demonstration of sympathy for Piedmont and Italy against the domination of Austria. • The same motives and feelings of sympathy now induce many Englishmen to address letters to various influential journals, some offering £lOO, some £5O, and others smaller sums, for the object of supplying arms for the defence of Central Italy against any attempt to reimpose upon her the yoke of Austrian or Bourbon Princes. Why, then, should England now be accused of degrading Italy by her assistance, and why should the Italians be charged with want of self-respect by accepting these marks of British sympathy ? We certainly did not think to fail in our self respect by not allowing to pass over in silence and without a word of gratitude those generous offers, that proved so efficaciously the sympathy of the British nation for our cause, or despising them as a charity of which Italy was not in need. And, to certify our gratitude to those from whom these noble offers emanated, we could not do other wise than promote the formation of a committee intrusted with the reception of such gratuitous offers, and so give a point d'appui to such sym pathy. We have, moreover, expressed our wish that an authoritative member of the British nation should preside over that committee, in which the English element was to predominate. Is it, then, want of self-respeet thus to show our esteem and gratitude towards a nation that so nobly advocates our cause? The reply given to us by Lord Shaftesbury clearly states that whatever might be contributed would be received by the Italians more as a mark of Byrn• pathy than as a material help in the difficulties that surround them. Neither in our letter nor in the answer above stated is there one word expressing the thought of depending at all upon such demonstations, or of looking for assistance from without instead of the use of our strength. Such a thought, unworthy of ourselves, and of our countrymen, who in 1848 and 1859 bravely re futed the malignant assertion, Les Millen: ne se battent pas,—such a thought, we say, could never be attributed to us, even hypothetically, by the Times, as it has done in the article of Friday, the 16th inst. We request you, sir, to give insertion at your earliest convenience, in your paper, to this our an swer, which, if you are impartial, as we doubt not, you will not withhold from your readers.—We re main, sir, your obedient servants, G. F. AVESANI. JOHN B. ROCCA. G. DERINCENZI. L. SERENATI. B. FABBRICOTTI. 1, Leinster-terrace, Hyde-park. LIBERTY OF THE PRESS IN FRANCE. The following is the text of the circular, relative to the liberty of the press in France, an abstract of which has already appeared in the columns of this paper : " Paris, Sept. 18, 1859. " M. le Prefet,—By a recent act, which was in spired by a noble sentiment of conciliation, all the journals of Paris and of the departments have been relieved of the warnings with which they had be-n visited. - " In giving this example of his goodwill towards the French press, the Emperor has again proved that the moderation of his policy is equal to the force of his authority ; his generous and high pre rogative has effaced the rigours which had become nEcessary in the interest of society. "All the journals at present in existence, and which had been affected by the application of Art. 32 of the decree• of the 17th of February, 1852, thus escape the consequences of the measures they had incurred, and find themselves in the face of this decree in the same position as if it were a new law. " It seems to me, then, to be necessary to refer to its principles, and to explain to you the spirit in which I conceive of its application, so far as the duties devolving on the Administration are con- corn ed. " The decree of the 17th February, 1852, is not, as has too often been said, a law for the occasion, born of a social crisis, and which could not be suitable to ordinary times. Like all other political laws, this one is no doubt susceptible of ame liorations, the utility of which might appear from experience ; but the principles upon which the decree of 1852 is founded are intimately connected with the restoration of authority in France, and with the constitution of the unity of power upon the basis of universal suffrage. The Emperor's Government is not afraid of the fair discussion of its acts ; it is strong enough to fear no attack. Its basis is too wide, its po licy is too national, its administration too pure, for falsehood and calumny to take away anything . of its moral power. But if it is protected by its incon testible force even against the abuses of liberty, there are considerations, independent of any fear, and deirved solely from the public interest, that oblige it not to renounce those leg al weapons which, in a great comitry like France, and under a regtnie that is the most complete expression of the national will, are securities and not restrictions. " The right of displaying and publishing their Opinions, which belongs to all Frenchmen, is a con quest of 1789, which cannot be taken away from a people so enlightened as that of France; but this right must not be confounded with the exercise of the liberty of the press by means of periodical journals. " Journals are co:lective agencies organised within the State, and they have under every regime been subjected to special regulations. The State has then its rights and its' duties as to exceptional measures of precaution and surveillance for journals, and when it reserves to itself the power of repress ing their excesses by administrative interposition, it does not restrict liberty of thought, but only employs a method of protecting the interests of society. The employment of this method of protection, which in contestably belongs to it, implies a spirit of great justice, moderation, and firmness. " I will add that in the matter of administrative jurisdiction over the press a due measure is especially necessary ; and I cannot dwell too much upon this point. Because it is the will and the duty of Go vernment not to iet the principle of its authority be weakened in its hands, it cannot therefore bring to bear upon liberty of discussion any restrictions ex cept those which are enjoined by respect for the constitution, and by the interests of order, public morality, and religion. " The Government will thus, far from imposing a servile approbation of its acts, always tolerate seri ous contradictions ; it will not confound the right of control with systematic opposition and calculated malevolence. The Government asks no better than to leave its authority en lightened by discussion, but it will never permit society to be troubled by guilty incitements and hostile passions. " Finally, M. le Prefet, I only rely upon your en tire zeal to discharge this part of your functions. In the co-operation which you will have to give me you will equally avoid, on the one hand, that weak ness which would allow of licence, and on the other hand, that exaggeration by which liberty would be restricted. In this manner you will enter into the Emperor's views and merit his approbation. Ac cept the assurance of my distinguished considera tion. " The Minister of the Interior, Duke of PADUA.' THE FINANCIAL REFORM AGITATION. The Liverpool Financial Reformers intend opening their cam paign against the Customs' duties referred to in The Sun of yesterday by a grand demonstration, to come off early in November, at Liverpool. Mr. Cobden and Mr. Bright have promised to attend and take part in the proceedings. The crusade, when thus inaugurated, is to be carried on vigorously during the winter months by public meetings being held throughout the country, the members of the Council hav ing promised to lend active assistance in prosecuting the objects of the association. The war-cry of the campaign, we understand, is to be "An untaxed breakfast and tea table for the working-classes ;" the argument being that the time is come when there should be untaxed tea and coffee as well as untaxed bread. THE BOMBAY MAIL. We. have received by the Overland Mail advice s and papers from Bombay to the 20th August. The defeat of the British forces at Peiho was a subject of much interest at the presidency, and is widely ci:mmented on by the various journals. The Bom bay Gazette opens its summary with the subject, and then continues : To guard against any emergency that may arise the Hon. Mr. Bruce has applied to the Governor- General for troops; but where are they to come from ? Having been presented with their discharge, about 10,000 men are at this moment on tke point of leaving India. 'lwo months ago no one thought there was any difficulty in settling the claims of the soldiers for bounty, created by their transfer to the service of the Crown. Lord Canning met the difficulty by giving them their discharge, con ceiving, we fancy, that in this matter they would consult their own interests, and find it more to their advantage to remain in the service. Has it so turned out ? Every day we hear of the withdrawal of large bodies of soldiers from their regiments, and the army itself is rapidly dissolving away. In the Bengal regiments 5,800 men have taken their discharge, about 2,300 are expected to embark from Madras, and 2,100 from Bombay. About 500 dis charged European soldiers arrived here on Sunday last from Mhow, by rail, and many are on their way to the presidency from the various military canton ments in the interior. We were informed the other day that the ships Contest, Hope, North, Nuggett, and Herefordshire, have been chartered by Govern ment for conveying the men to England. The first two vessels will sail in a few days with about 415 men on board each of them. This is a matter more important than on the sur face it appears. It is indeed a lamentable fact that the British force in India is inadequate to the requirements of war. Soldiers cannot be manufac• tured i a few months, nor, when they are striplings at the time of enlistment, in a few years. But, ad mitting that we acre enlisting at double the rate of any previous year ; admitting that we have done all that could be done to raise recruits, still there comes the question, how are we to replace European regiments of long Indian experience, and at once raise British troops seasoned and fit for the hard ships of an Asiatic campaign ? From the districts traversed by the rebels we have scarcely any news. If we may credit some letters that have been published in the Bengal papers they are almost in a state of starvation. They prowl about in bands of from 50 to 500, and are dispersed over the lower ranges south of Nepaul. A letter from Rohilcund, in the Bengal Ifurkaru, mentions that Balla Rao, brother to the Nana, liur dut Sing, Talookdar of Bhowne, near Baraitch, and the Nawab of Nujeebabad, have from the effects of the climate died near Dhoker in the Nepaul territo tories, somewhere near Boohwal, where the Begum is. The Nana is suffering from fever. The Begum still holds out bravely, and it is said will give us some trouble should the rebels succeed in getting out from their present abode into Tirhoot and the Santhal Purgunnahs. This is unlikely, however, as they are at present doing their utmost to avoid the plains, where they are sure to come in collu sion with our troops. A letter in the Mofussi lite, from Etawah, on the frontier of Go ruckpore, states that " intelligence is regu larly received at all the principal outposts of the remaining few of our late antagonists, the Pandies. They seldom if ever venture beyond the frontier. The only considerable body of them who appear at all disposed to be mischievous is commanded by two rascals called Bullie and Bulkurren Sing. Their gang of 600 is reported to be hanging about some where in the vicinity of Towleen, where the nature of the country would render a surprise on them at this season almost impracticable. A report is pre valent here, said to have originated from reliable authority, that Balla Rao has cheated the hangman, and died from jungle fever. This is to be regretted, as there was a price set on his head. The clemency policy of Government surpasses human belief." Several arrests have been effected in Oude and Bareilly, and the prisoners are accused, some of having taken part in the masacre of Europeans during the mutiny, and others of attempting to seduce soldiers from their duty. But they are not all dealt with as they deserve. Some of the rebels lately caught at Bareilly have been transported. One Reng Rao was sent by the Nana as an emis sary to Hyderabad, where he was arrested and sentenced. The Governor-General has remitted the capital punishment, and commuted the sentence to transportation for life. Most of the loading men among the rebels are falling into our hands. They do not deny the part they took in the revolt in the north, every narrative of which confirms the impressions of their execrable treachery. Merely to expel them, therefore, from the society of their friends seems indeed to be a very light punish ment. One or two hare been induced. to put an end to their lives by poison to avoid the risk of being caught. Sufferus Khan, formerly a Pathan Rus suldar in the employ of the Begum of Bhopal, adopted this plan when he found himself in a diffi cult position, and that nothing could avert his ulti• mate capture. A little before the festival of the Mohurrum, the Punjaub was in a state of oxcitement in consequence of some rumours, more or less exaggerated, regard- lug disaffection among the Mahom - edans of Seal kote, Umritsur, Lahore, and Jullundur. A fakeer, a religious beggar, was first arrested in the Seal kote district with some treasonable papers in his possession. As this man appeared to be acting for others, the police were ordered to keep a sharp look-out in all the towns where the Mahommedans mustered strong. It seems that those at Lahore were full of same nonsense about the birth of a new pro phet, and expected that a revolution was at hand. This silly story was eagerly credited and canvassed by the religious section of the Lahore Mahomme dans, and the sermons preached at the Mosques referred to the advent of the prophet, and were cal culated t ) unsettle men's minds. Seeing that mis chief might be done by these mad fellows, it was considered advisable to make an example of some of the foolish talkers. Four persons were put on their trial, and they were punished by fines and impri sonment for a few months. It is said that the sth Madras Cavalry, chiefly composed of M ahommedan s,threaten ed to create mili tary disturbances at Hyderabad, similar to those that took place in the north-west provinces, if the Government did not take from them the greased cartridges which were lately served out to them by mistake. Placards were put in the public streets which showed that a movement was on foot for drawing the sword in defence of their religion, and killing all the Christians of the place. These facts give us a glimpse under the surface of Mahomedan political society. Their festival of the Mohurrum passed off very quietly here ; but in the Deccan and elsewhere great discontent at the position they hold under the British Government has been openly expressed. OUDIL It is said that this kingdom is to bo appended to the North-Western Provinces, a saving of half a lac per annum being looked for as the result. Major Bruce, C. 8., is spoken of as the first incumbent under the new arrang ement , with the title of judi cial assistant to the chief commissioner. The dis armament goes on apace. In the four weeks ending July 23, there were collected 22 cannon, 12,504 fire-arms, 26,131 swords, 2,315 spears, and 6,629 miscellaneous, a total of 47,601 weapons. There have been collected, in all, 671 cannon, 182,718 fire-arms, 555,924 swords, 49,445 spears, 631,402 miscellaneous—total, 1,420,160 weapons. The vil lagers in the Philihbeet district complain that they have not a weapon with which to drive off even a pig or a monkey from their crops. Of the 1,569 forts in Oudh, 1,327 have been destroyed, 198 arc in course of demolition, and 44 are retained for public purposes. The people of Cawnpore hre very sore at having to pay the fine—three lacs— and resort to all sorts of entreaties to be excused. The fine is not:half enough.. The destruction of the two medical depots alone, at Meerut and Cawnpore entailed upon us a loss of eight lacs ! Govern ment have ordered the suspension of all public orks in Oudh, „ except such as are absolutely necessary. The Residency Fort is at a stand still. PUNJAUB. There has been some excitement respecting a sup posed Mahomedan conspiracy, with ramifications at Sealkote, Umritsur, &c. The importance of the affair has probably been exaggerated, but early in July a Haji from Mecca was seized at Zufferwal , having in his possession many copies of a proclama tion addressed to the Mahomedans of the Punjaub and others, calling on them to riso against the government, assuring them of the birth of a pro phet, &e. He is waiting sentence in Lahore gaol. Some 20 have been arrested on suspicion of com plicity, some of whom have been fined and some imprisoned. The commissioner assembledthea moollas and moulvies of Lah ore at the Ko twallee, and warned them, the res ult of which has been decided improvement in the aspect of affairs. MADRAS. A very painful investigation has been made into the conduct of the accountant general, Mr. G. L. charged with using offici a l i n f orma ti on personal benefit in th e p urc h ase o f T an j ore bonds. Prendergast, his re bonds. Th e inquiry was conducted by a commis sion appointed by the Madras government. The supreme government have directed the imme diate removal of Major E. E. Miller, deputy assis tant commissary general, and superintendent of police, from his app o i n t men t i n the Mysore divi sion. This i certain late exposures of the system on which is supposed to have re sulted from the administration of the Bangalore cantonment . police-offi wce as conducted. A native meeting has been held at Madras, at which an address to the judges of the Supreme Court was adopted, praying that in future natives might constitute a moiety of both the grand And petty juries. THE DECCAN. Uneasiness prevails at Hyderabad, from Colonel Davidson's energetic measures for the punishment of the clisaffeeed. It is even said that the Nizam openly abuses his gallant minister Salar June. (This Salar Jung must not be confounded with his namesake in Nepaul.) MISCELLANEOUS. Lord Clyde is said to be looking homeward. Ho was expected at Allahabad on the 6th, to embark on board the steamer Madras. It was thought he would go to Calcutta shortly, if not at once, prepa tory to leaving for England. His excellency has issued an order, of course sanctioned by Lord Can ning, granting 30 days' grace to soldiers who may be in doubt as to whether they will go home or stay. It is not thought that it will have much effect. More than 10,000 still seem likely to go. Some of the men are behaving badly, now they are civilians. At Allahabad there have been some disgraceful scenes. At Bangalore two men of the Ist Madras Fusiliers, tried by court-martial, have been sen tenced, one to hard labour for three months, and to receive 50 lashes, and the other to hard labour for six months. The salt trade is expected to be thrown open, subject to the imposition of an excise duty. Free trade in salt has been agitated for years. The question of Bible classes in Government schools is attracting attention both among European and natives. The Madras Native Association held a meeting, and adopted a memorial to the Secretary of State on the subject. Mr. Arbuthnot, the director of public instruction, thinks voluntary classes open to objection almost equally with com pulsory classes. Sir Charles Trevelyan is strongly in favour of our present prohibitive policy. Mr. Elliot takes the other view. 11 It is said that Lord Canning intends appointing a native under secretary to Government. Sir W. O'Shauzhnessy has issued a valuable re port on the electrie telegraphs of India, the Bom bay Chamber of Commerce have applied for it. COMMERCIAL. • REPORT ON THE BOMBAY MARKET. Cotton Manufactures—The market has exhibited a fur ther improvemen, and a large business has been done in piece goods. Almost all descriptions of grey goods are actively inquired for advanced rates. Bleached goods have improved in demand; common to middling descriptions of shirtings, madapollams, and jacconets meet a ready sale at higher prices. Glasgow goods have also met with more attention and a fair amount of business has been done. A slightly improved inquiry has begun to prevail for Turkey red goods, and there has been some disposition to purchase during the fortnight, holders having submitted to lower rates. Woollens—These continue steady, but with little altera tion in prices. Yarns —The market has remained firm, and the business done during the fortnight has been very small. Counts 20 and 30 of mule have undergone a slight decline, but the rest of the numbers maintain previous rates. There has been very little doing in water twist, and prices are steady. Dyed yarns are largely supplied, and continue in slight re quest at former prices. Metals.—With the exception of copper, iron, and speller, the market has been quiet. Copper has risen in demand and value since our last. A renewed inquiry has sprung up for iron, and a few sales have taken place. Spelter is scarce, and dearer. There has been nothing doing in other metals. Cochineal.—Owing to a large supply on hand a reduction in price has been looked for. Holders, however, show but little inclination to submit to reduced rates, and conse quently there has been very little business done. Saffron.—Stocks are light at market, and the consequent enhanced prices have checked operations. Beer.—The market is pretty steady, the inquiry for beer, both in wood and in bottle, being slack. Wines and Spirits.—Dull ; no sales. Coals.—ln consequence of supplies having been received, prices have fallen, and sales have been effected at the re duced quotations. Corks.—As before. Sundries.—No material sales have taken place. THIS DAY'S MARKETS; CORN EXCHANGE. Very little English wheat was on sale here to-day, and its general quality was inferior. The few fine samples on offer were disposed off at fully Monday's advance in the quotations ; but other kinds moved off slowly at last week's currency. Fine foreign wheats were rather dearer, and the transac tions in all descriptions were on the increase. Floating cargoes of wheat were firm in price. Fine malting barley sold readily at extreme rates. Grind ing and distilling sorts were a slow inquiry. There was a fair inquiry for malt on former terms. Good sound oats Were steady in price, but damp parcels were a dull inquiry. Both beans and peas were very dull, and the turn lower. The flour trade was in a healthy state at previous cur rencies.
