The house .es ig concluded its theatrical performance for this week, ~s _ a \ ring taken but one ballot. The proceedings to-day were 17 4 racterised by language of the most vulgar Billingsgate, ( 1 ) ' appeals to the wildest passions, by propositions and ' 4ll ticiations unparliamentary, discourteous, and die taceful. The galleries are daily appealed to in general d;r0151 . by inflammatory arguments, and often in language h ar ed To-day so loosely was the business of the 0118 e conducted that the members themselves presented °te the appearance of a disorganized mob in a low rtho us e than that of the greatest deliberative body i;'• the world • and, under the impulsive retort of a mem ,l(.)r from Ark ansas to the remark of a member from New °tic, the galleries, from the example sot them by the Illetabers, caught up the fever of disorder and broke out Imo the loudest cheers. The clerk appealed to the people the galleries to preserve order, rebuking the house at the ritse time for setting the example. Unless those who pro• Xis to represent the people can give better evidence that TeY are c a p a bl e o f govern i ng themselves than they h ave '°tie thus far they had bettor not attempt to govern others. f "lw more weeks of such bear-garden scenes as have been ththe M esse d at the national capital be su ffi cient cause for e People to rise, and with a Cromwell at their head, drive z nresent diso om cap. The house is Cu p y zo nearer rganisers an election than the it was ital six weeks ago. Mr. t o "ates speech to-day utterly failed to induce Mr. Clark Withdraw his Helper resolution." On Friday, the 27th ult., the South Oxfordshire hounds met at Menmarsh Guide-post, to which meet his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, look ing every inch a sportsman, trotted up on his grey hack, and found one of his clever hunters awaiting him. The scent was bad, and it was feared that the Prince's first day with the South Oxfordshire would prove a blank, but as the day advanced there was a change for the better. The noble master of the hunt the Earl of Macclesfield, who hunts his own hounds, trotted to Water perry Wood, one of the many covers belonging to that " fine old English gentleman," J. W. Henley, Esq., who is no loss distinguished as a coulty member than -he is as a preserver of foxes and a lover of the noble and national sport. Here a fox of the right sort was unkennelled and went away like a shot, but the Earl, with his accustomed alacrity, clapped the hounds close to reynard's brush. Over Waterperry Brook they went to Holton Wood and right through it, but the fox was unfortunately headed in his attempt to break from that covert. He then took a turn round the wood, and made his point over the Stanton-road into the Shortover pleasure grounds, leaving the mansion to the right, then ran the valley nearly to Littlemore, the hounds at this point running as if they could see their fox up the hill to the right, and shot over to the village of Horspath ; leaving that to the right, he pointed as if for Sandford Brake, but altering his course he ran to the new enclosures, where posts and rails, single and double, were too nume rous and by no means agreeable to the field. The hounds hunted their fox beautifully, and Lord Macclesfield and the Prince rode stride by stride over the valley in and oat the rails side by side, as if they were running in couples —up the hill—all went over the heavy ploughed land, to the Garsing ton road when a check, and a welcome one, although but short, occurred ; one of his lordship's quick and judicious casts soon brought all on the line of the old fox once more, when they ran him merrily acmes the Denton fields, leaving the village to the left, over the Denton woods, and pointed for Chislehampton ; but poor reynard's strength began to fail him, when he tried all his cunning, but it was of no avail, for the hounds pressed him to the Chislehampton road, and he was finally run into in the village of Garsington, after the best run of the season, the time beine. 1 hour and 20 minutes. His lordship presented the Prince, who was well up at the death, with the brush, a eompliment which his Royal Highness appeared to appreciate, and no doubt will preserve as a pleasurable reminiscence of his first day - with the South Oxfordshire hounds. His Royal Highness rode well and boldly, and his appearance in the field was hailed with great de light, and may be regarded as an epoch in the his tory of this truly.national sport.

THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 4, 1.60. TIMID EDITION. SUN OFFICE, Six o' Clock. RUSSIA. A letter from St. Petersburg of the 24th ult., says " In Russia a financial crisis, which is:almost as severe as that in Austria, prevails ; but there is this difference in the situation of the two countries —the foreign credit of Austria is destroyed, whilst Russia enjoys the confidence of foreign capitalists from the exactness with whick she has constantly fulfilled her engagements. Owing to the crisis the precious metals are being hidden, and even cop per has become :so scarce that a premium is paid when given for paper. The commercial community hopes Government will keep its promise to reduce the amount of paper money, and to put into circu lation from 25,000,000 to 30,000,000 of roubles in new copper coin. So great is the scarcity of small coin that notes are cut into pieces to represent such coin, and retail traders have issued a sort of paper tokens which they agree among themselves to ac cept as coin." LA TV INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day.) COURT OF PROBATE AND DIVORCE. (Before Sir C. Creswell and a Common Jury.) BROADBENT V. HUGHES. This was a suit instituted to test the validity of a will executed by Joseph Hughes, who had been a surgeon in the Royal Navy, and died last year, bequeathing the whole of his estate, amounting to about £t,ooo, to his niece, the daughter of the plaintiff, to whom from childhood he was much attached. The instrument was disputed by the plaintiff, his only brother and next of kin, on the usual ground of the testator's alleged incapacity and subjection to undue influence at the time it was executed. Mr. Sergeant and Mr. Francis were counsel for the plaintiff, and Dr. Fhilliniore, Q.C., and Dr. Tristram, for the defendant. It appeared that the testator was 88 years old at his de cease, but that his mental faculties were unimpaired, and that he resented to the last some of the acts of the plaintiff which extremely displeased him. It was sworn distinetly that he gave instructions to the party who drew up the will, to leave all his estate to his niece, and when asked whether he would not make some provision for his brother and family he repeatedly replied in the negative. The case was opened late yesterday and was resumed this morning, but the evidence for the plaintiff was proceeding when we went to press. POLICE INTELLIGENCE( THIS DAY.) s. d. s. d.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET. M ORE SH or LIFTING.—Ann Adshead, 24, Trafalgar-place' New Kent-road, and Amelia Griffiths, address refused, were charged before Mr. Bingham with stealing at 240, Regent-street, the property of Joseph Allinson and others, four lengths of ribbon, value 30s. _ A box containing several pieces of ribbon found on the prisoners was produced. The system pursued by the pri soners seemed to be to go into shops and steal rolls of ribbon, and then on leaving to go to public-houses, take the ribbon from the pieces of wood, and leave them be hind. William Hall, assistant to Messrs, Allinson, silk mercers, of 24, Regent-street, said that a few minutes before five the previous afternoon the prisoners curie in and made pur chases to the amount of 6s. 101 d., Griffiths paying for the goods. He furnished the prisoners with a box. About half an hour after a constable came in and produced a boa containing ribbons, and he then found that four pieces of ribbon were missing, of the value of 30s. In cress-examination, the witness said the marks web() gone from the pieces, but he had no doubt they were the property of his employers. Wright, 90 C, said that about 20 rtinutes past 5 he was called to the Princess Charlotte, wallow-passage, near Messrs. Allinson's, and was told the box had been left by two persons. He took the bex to M sews. Allinson's, where four pieces of ribbon were identified. The four pieces of wood which the ribbon had been mound wore found in the water-closet. A young woman living at the Princess Charlotte said the prisoners left the box with her, and she gave it up to the constable. The prisenere, who are both resvectable-looking, and rather below the middle height, wens remanded. TILE ROBBERY OF A VALUABLE RING AND SHAWLS.— The two women Morris and Brooks, charged with stealing a ring of the value of £3O, from Mr.. Harry Emanuel, of Hanover-square, goldsmith, and also with stealing two valuable shawls, of the value of £24 and £lO, from Messrs. Harvey and Nicholls, of Knightsbridge, silkmercers, &c., were again brought up. Mr. E. Lewis appeared for Mr. Emanuel, Mr. Orridge for Messrs. Harvey and Nicholls, awl Mr. Bland for the prisoners. Some additional evidence being given to complete the case, and a former conviction being proved by Sergeant Cole, of the C division, the prisoners were eoanmitted for trial. 7.HIS DAY'S MARKETS. COVENT-GARDEN. Our market continues to be fairly 'supplied, and the trade generally is steady, as follows : FRUIT. BREAD. The prices of wheaten bread in the metropolis are from 7d to lid , of household do., .5d to 6fd per 41b loaf. HAY DIARKEtA. Smintriv.Ln.—Meadow hay, £2 15s to £4 4s ; clover, £3 15s to £5 Os ; and straw, £1 6s to £1 lOs per load. A short supply, and a steady trade. CUMBERLAND.—Meadow hay, £2 15s to £4 4a; clover, £4 Os to £5 Os ; and straw, £1 6s to £1 lls per lead. A fair demand. WHITECITAPEL.—Meadow hay, £2 15s to £4 4s; cloves, £4 Os to £5 .0s ; and straw, it 5s to £1 93 per load. Trade rather slow. MlNES.—Since our last there has been a very heavy settling for the fornightly account, and an active business in shares generally. Clifford continuo 340 to 350. West Seton rather better, at 410 to 420. West Caradon largely dealt in, and leaving off 80 to 824. South Frances, 170 to 180, with no business doing. West Basset, 19 to 20; Wheat Seton, 125 to 135. Great Fortune have ad vanced to 20, 221. Ding Dong, 161 to 171. East Basset, 1221 to 1271, ex div. ; at the meeting the accounts skewed a profit of £317 19s. 6d. in the two months' work ing and a division of £6 per share (£3,072) was declared, leaving £1,335 19s. Bd. in hand. The report shows that the 70, east of new shaft, is worth £l2 per fathom ; the stopes oa the south lode are worth lathe aggregate £247 per fm. Tho 90 cross- cut has been driven south of the engine shaft 27 fm., and there was 4 fathoms further to drive to cut the lode ; this is the im portant point in the mine. When the lode was cut in the 80, about a year ago, the shares rose from £7O to £220; and if cut rich in the 90, there will be another great rise, and the probabilities are in favour of it, as the report says, " there is a splendid lode gone down in the bottom of the 80, worth £2OO per fm."—Mining Journal of this day. SPAIN AND MOROCCO. The following (from the Gibraltar Chronicle) are further particulars and details of the Spanish war in Morocco : JAN. 24. The following;is an extract from a private letter of an officer belonging to General Rios's division, dated from the camp at the Custom-house of Tetuan, Jan. 20 : " I write a few lines on the bare floor to let you know lam well. My regiment was the first that entered the Custom-house. The Moors had left there some goods, but not of great value. The Moorish camp is in front, half a league off. If the enemy descends to the plain we shall have a gene ral action, but I doubt if he will accept battle in this way,for he seems very timid, although he is in great force, particularly in cavalry. In a recon naissance we made this morning we fired a few shots, but nothing further. Our entrance into Tetuan—or siege, if siege it is to be—will take place soon, as we are only a league from the town, of which we have a clear view from the camp. In the army there is great enthusiasm." By the arrival of the Marocain this morning from Tetuan we learn that a severe action was fought yesterday before that town. From nine in the morning until five in the evening the firing on both sides was heavy and continuous. Our infor mant, who viewed the battle from a distance, could not say which army commenced the attack; but he believes that a very great force on each side was engaged, as the Spanish reserves were moved for ward in the afternoon and took up a position close to the scene of action. Both armies after the battle returned to the ground they had before occupied. The Moorish positions are on some heights, north of the Tetuan, favourably situated for the defence of the city. No particulars of the losses on either side were known, but both armies are supposed to have suffered se verely._ The Marocain was freighted by the Spanish Go vernment to convey from Cette to Ceuta 100 bul locks and upwards of 100 bales of compressed hay. From Ceuta the steamer was sent to the coast of Tetuan, where she landed the bullock at the Port of Martin, but brought the hay to this bay. The Marocain, after taking in a cargo of wool, proceeds direct to Marseilles. JAN. 25. The Hoja Suelta, of Algeciras, describes the ac tion before Tetuan of the 23d as an attack by the Emperor's Black Cavalry on the battalions of the 2d corps forming the Spanish advanced guard. With the assistance of the artillery the attack was repulsed, with slight loss, it is asserted, on the part of the Spaniards, there being only two officers amongst the killed, one belonging to the cavalry and the other to the infantry. A squadron of the Farnesio and onc of the Villaviciosa regiment made a brilliant charge on the Moorish cavalry. The body of Lieutenant-Colonel Barrueta, of the artillery, was brought from the vicinity of Tetuan to Ceuta on the 16th. Th e co l one l comm itt e d sui cide by shooting hi mse lf w ith a p i sto l i n a t en t during the absence of th e o th er o ffi cers w h o were residing with him. The cause which led to this rash act was not known. " The Town Council of Cadiz," says the Consii tucional, " have ordered that on the day in which the news of the fall of Tetuan may be received, it shall be celebrated by bands of music playing through the streets, a general ringing of bells, by the houses being adorned by hangings, by illumi nations, and other public amusements ; 500 rs. vn. are to be given to every family belonging to Cadiz who has a s-on in the ranks of the army at the seat of war ; wine, tobacco, and cakes to the wounded and sick from the army, and a ration to the poor of the the prisons." The fellowint , steamers arrives at Milaga with wounded and si ck from the seat of war in Africa : The Spanish steamer Cid, on the 20th inst., with 2 officers and 157 rank and file ; the Spanish war steamer Conde de Regla, on the 21st, with 3 officers and 156 rank and file ; the French steamer Bre tagne, on the night of the 21st, with 4 officers and 200 rank and file. JAN. 26. We have received to-day private advices from the Spanish camp, dated on the night of the 23d inst. The action of that day was, after all, bet an unim portant affair. There was a great deal of firing from the artillery, which might easily give to a distant spectator the impression that a severe struggle was taking place. The immediate cause of the fighting was the construction by the Spaniards of a fort on their right front. The Moors came down to molest the works, and this led to a good deal of skirmishing, ar tillery firing, and some charges of cavalry. In one of the latter, a Spanish soldier took a yellow banner with cords, tassels, &c., and for this he was promoted to the rank of sergeant, and decorated on the field. The Moors did not show in very great force, and were easily repulsed by the cavalry and artillery. When the Spanish troops retired at dusk to their own ground they were but weakly followed by the Moors. 'Whilst such animated scenes are taking place beneath the walls of Tetuan the city itself looks deserted and lifeless, not even a curling thread of smoke giving evidence of its being inhabited. The fighting of the 23d offered the means of in troducing to the game of war the young Count d'Eu (son of the Duke de Nemours), who had just arrived in the Spanish camp to join Marshal O'Don nell's staff. He was out under fire with the skir mishers, and has received, as the reward of hie first day's real service, the cross of San Fernando. The young Count is described as a nice looking boy, with a complexion of almost feminine delicacy. This, it is surmised, will be soon bronzed to the proper campaigning tint by a life under canvas and exposure to the African sunshine, wind, and rain. It seems that the 97 mules taken some time since from the Spaniards were not all stolen in one night, bat at different times. The account of the manner in which the Moors effected the capture reads like a page of one of Cooper's novels about the Red In dians. The different Kabyles are called upon to contribute, each tribe, its most expert thieves and cattle lifters. These divide into two parties; one creeps stealthily, venire a terra, as near as is prac ticable, without detection, to the quarter in which the mules are picketed, and when the other party has raised a false alarm and fired a few shot in front of a distant quarter of the Spanish camp, and all eyes and ears are on the stretch in that direction, the mule stealers dash in and seize their prey. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. BETTING AT MANTHESTER.—FRIDAY. The publishing of the acceptances for the Chester Cup and other spring handicaps has hitherto given n o new life to speculation ; indeed, so little encouragement is there in the way of backing horses, that many of those bookmakers who had determined upon not opening their volumes until after the acceptances had been made public, have not yet commenced operations upon the Chester event. For the Two Thousand Guinea Stakes the Wizard was in demand at 4 to 1; Buccaneer is very " fishy ;" and although Um pire is occasionally mentioned, we must decline putting a figure to his name for this event until we have seen him once more supported with something like spirit. 6tol to 0 would have been taken about Lupullus. With the ex ception of 1,000 to 20 being taken about Loiterer, and 400 to 10 about Cramond, both for the Derby, not a bet was laid upon that race. For the Chester Cup Longrange re mains without any outlay, and the leading favourite nomi nally at 20 to 1. A stiffish commission was in the market in favour of Birmingham, about whom 25 to 1 was taken with avidity. 1,000 to 25 would a few times have been taken about Promised Land, and 1,000 to 30 would have been laid against him. Satellite was in some demand at 30 to 1. For the Lincolnshire Handicap, Curlew is the only horse in request. The Liverpool Steeplechase produces little or no wagering, and beyond 25 to 1 being offered on the field for the City and Suburban Handicap, that event is seldom mentioned. CLOSING PRICES.

A meeting of the council of the Ballot Society was held yesterday afternoon at the Whittington Club, Arundel-street, Strand, in orde r to coder the following notice of motion, given by Mr..T.AL Duncombe, M.P. :—" Gloucester and V Wakefield Elections—Bill to make provision that at all future elections of members to serve in Parliament for tile boroughs of Gloucester and Wakefield the electors thereof give their vote by ballot." There were present—Mr. Berkeley, M.P.; Mx. T. S. Duncombe, M.P.; Mr. Lawson, M.P. ; Mr. Sergeant Gaselee, Mr. E. C. Whitehurst, Mr. S. White, Mr. Russell, Mr. S. Nodes, Mr. C. H. Elt, Mr. H. Gridley, Mr. M. Marsden, Mr. W. Wilke, Mr. J. Bontems, and other supporters of the move ment. _ . _ Mr. WHITEHURST, having taken the chair, stated the object for which the meeting had been convened, and read a letter from General Thompson regret ting that he could net attend. He then went on to say, in reference to Mr. Duncombe's motion, that when Mr. Bonham-Carter brought forward a simi lar motion the council of the society had not consi dered it expedient to give it their support. Mr. Duncombe's motion in 1854 was similarly received ; but societies, like individuals, grew wiser in pro cess of time, and the council now believed that the cause of the ballot would be promoted by support. ing Mr. Duncombe's motion. He had seen a gen tleman concerned as one of Mr. Leatham's agents in the Wakefield election, who said that if the bal lot had existed in that town not a dozen men would have been bribed. It had been considered proper to call the council together on that occasion, in order that they might co-operate; and he would invite them freely to discuss the question. ' Mr. GRIDLEY, the defeated candidate for Bever ley, said as he was the last " eel that had been skinned," he would make a few remarks. The pre sent was a very favourable time for the motion to be brought before the house, but he would suggest an alteration in the terms—viz., that the ballot should be introduced for the next election only. He conceived the object of the motion was merely to test the efficacy of +he ballot, and Par liament might be disposed to allow it a trial at one borough, for which 'purpose one election would suffice. The ballot would hove the effect of pre venting bribery, and he could speak to the truth of the statement of Mr. Leatham's agent—the class of people assailable by bribery were in so low a condi tion, both pecuniarly and morally, that they re quired watching to the poll to give their votes, and so keen and wide awake that they would not poll until they received the money. He was disposed to say that if the ballot did not put an end to bribery, at all events it would prevent intimida tion. (Hear, hear.) If it had existed last Tues day in Beverley he had no hesitation in saying he should have represented Beverley at that moment in spite of bribery. He could bear testimony to the fact that bribery became a matter of necessity —(hear)—and ready as any one might be to get a seat in Parliament, to go down to meet such a sys tem of bribery and intimidation require.l him to have the Bank of England behind him to meet with any chance of success. Mr. WHITE was gratified at the manner in which the case had been detailed, which showed in an eminent degree the necessity and efficiency of the ballot. They were much indebted to Mr. Dun combe for the part he had taken in the matter. Public attention was rivet ted on the cases of Glou cester and Wakefield. The moral feeling of the country had been outraged, and Mr. Du ncombe was acting in a proper spirit by seizing on the occasion and appropriating it to the common cause. He thought the suggestion made by Mr. Gridley should be left to Mr. Duncombe's discretion. The House of Commons might submit to a tentative measure while they objected to a principle. He then moved— "That the motion, of which Mr. Buncombe M,P., has given notice, is entitled to all possible support; and this council resolves that it will use every exertion in its power to aid Mr. Buncombe, and respectfully solicits the mem bers of Parliament who are favourable to the ballot to give the motion their cordial and united support." Mr. BERKELEY, M.P., seconded the motion. He doubted the prudence of chang ing the terms of the motion, as kuggested by Air. Gridley . Supposing that Mr. Duncombe's Bill was carried, that Bill would embrace every constituency, though applied only to Glocester and Wakefield. He thought it probable that Mr. Buncombe would wish to see the bill they (the council) had prepared, with a view of presentation at an early period. Mr. BUNCOMBE, M.P., said his motion was not intended to interfere with Mr. Berkeley's Bill; they would do the same thing as was done with the Jewish Emancipation Bill, which was done some what ungraciously ; but they attained their object, and, if unattainable by other means, they might eventually get the ballot by carrying partial mea sures. With reference to the suggestion that had been made to limit the period of operation of the bill, it was perfectly competent to propose to limit it to 10 years, and then to continue it, if found to work well. He was disposed to think he should be successful in getting the bill in if they could get the church-rate question, which stood for the same day, over on that day. No doubt the Government and the Tories would coalesce against him, but in spite of this he thought he should succeed. Mr. Sergeant GASELEE considered the measure a most suicidal one. If the bill extended over a period of 10 years he supposed they would have to wait that time in order to see how it operated. (No, no.) He had a great objection to the measure. Why wait 10 years ? Everybody would say, " Don't bring in any bill ; wait until this experiment has been tried." He hoped instead of giving them the advantages of the ballot, the Government would stop the writs for Wakefield, Gloeester, and Bever ley for 10 years, and show that the finger of scorn was pointed at them. Why give benefits to towns that had disgraced themselves ? It was either a punishment or a benefit; if a benefit, why should these towns have an advantage over others ? if a punishment, why stigmatise the ballot as such ? Again, they wanted all their forces to support their own bill, and the House of Commons would not like to have two discus sions. He strongly urged them not to have a par tial ballot, but to go for the whole bill and nothing but the bill. If they were to dilute their strength, people were so much against it that if the motion was carried he believed it would put back the cause of the ballot for 10 years. Mr. BERKELEY said, in reference to the ballot being considered as a punishment, he thought the proper light to view it in was the same way in which vaccination for the smallpox was regarded. The CHAIRMAN did not consider it would have the effect of stopping the agitation. Mr. ELT was afraid he should have stood alone, but he entertained the same view as Mr. Gaselee. Would these two places be the best to try the expe riment of the ballot—places so corrupt that nothing could be done with them ? The ballot could not make head against corruption in small places.
