lIM MONEY MARKET AND CITY NEWS. CITY, Two o'CLocK. There has been rather less activity in the Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets during the last few days, although prices in most instances have been well maintained. Since the arrival of the new season's crop of tea a moderate amount of business has been done in the finer descriptions, and at im proved values. Sugar continues at steady rates, but in the Refined Market there is rather less activity, and prices have slightly given way. For coffee a bady demand has been reported, owing to the small arrivals of plantation Ceylon. Rice has been inactive, but in rum and spices there has been about an average number of transactions and at full rates. Fruit has been in fair demand, notwithstanding large arrivals of both currants and Valencia raisins, and late rates are fully supported for the better descriptions. The public sales of indigo are proceeding rather slowly, and a large quantity of the finer qualities has been withdrawn, owing to the downward tendency of prices ; for the other descriptions about previous values have been real. ised. Saltpetre ha: been flat, and in some in stances a decline of ls. to 2s. per cwt. has oc curred. Tallow continues dull, although there is little alteration to notice in values, the speculative demand for spring delivery having slightly dimi nished. Notwithstanding the continuance of the Bank rate of discount at 3 per cent., the demand for money out of doors, although the terms are still as low as 2 and 21 per cent., exhibits no perceptible increase. The requirements on commercial account are still very limited, although an im provement in trade is reported throughout the country, and the payments of calls and instalments for new joint-stock companies and the State loans lately negotiated have not yet absorbed a sufficient aggregate amount to create the least improvement in the market. The state of the foreign exchanges is now viewed with some anxiety, for, in the event of a further deCline, specie may be with drawn from this country to Northern Ger many, whence there is also an efflux to Vienna, where active arrangements are in progress for the resumption of specie payments by the Bank of Vienna. On Tuesday last the rate of exchange was Slightly firmer, the decline having been checked, but the quotations this afternoon are awaited with some anxiety, and many persons are desirous of ascertaining whether increased firmness will then be exhibited. The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday con tinued heavy, and prices tended downwards. The sales amounted to 8,000 bales. On the Stock Ex change rather more business was reported in Rail way shares, although values slightly receded. A small amount of gold, viz., £4,000, was t aken into the Bank yesterday. Several large consignments are coming forward from Australia, brathey m a y no t b e rece i ve d f or a wee k or t wo , no immediate accumulation can therefore be anticipated. Increased heaviness has been observable in Ale Nlish Stock Market to-day. Although' the fl uctuation has not been more than 1 per cent! it has shown the sensitiveness of the market;_ao the facility with which it can be moved by a few adverse transactions. A decline took place soon liter the opening, but a rally succeeded. When, owever, it transpired that the Government broker had not made his usual daily purchases, renewed depression was created. Consols have bin 9 8Z 1 and. 984. n. The difference between Lae quotati ons for immediate transfer an the 10 th proximo is reduced to about 1-16th per cent. Consols are now about 981 for money, and 981 f f for account. The New 3 per Cents. are marked 971 7,, and also the Reduced Annuities. Bank Stock is Erin at 221 to 222.

(THIS DA E) SHERIFFS' COURT. (Before Mr. Prendergast, Q.C.) PROOF AGAINST HARD SWEARING.--BORROW V. M'NAMARA, Plaintiff is a cab-owner, and defendant is a director of the London General Omnibus Company. The action was brought to recover damages sustained by plaintiff's cab, in consequence of the negligence of one of defendant's drivers. Mr. T. Beard, of Baiifighall-street, appeared for the de fendant. Plaintiff and his witnesses deposed that on the Bth of the present month his cab was proceeding through Cornhill, and the omnibus, No. 7,375, belonging to defendant, ran into and damaged the panel at the back of plaintiff's cab. Plaintiff took the number as the omnibus drove on. It was 7,375. In cross-examination plaintiff said he did not know where the omnibus went to, but he was sure he had the right number. Mr. Beard, for defendant, said, this was one of those cases in which several persons positivly swore that a par ticular vehicle, bearing a particular, number, damaged a cab. He (Mr. Beard) might possibly have called witnesses to controvert this evidence, but that would not have been suf ficient, as hard swearing would have been matched against hard swearing. O n th e present occas i on ho (Mr. B ear d) would prove that the omn ib us N o . 7,375 9 was not in the City on the day in question. In confirmation of this statement Mr. Beard produced the licence, and called Mr. Ashton, the manager, who proved that the omnibus ran from St. John's Wood to Camberwell, and was not in the City on the Bth. His Honour said it was very evident a mistake had been made, and plaintiff must be nonsuited. DEANE, DRAY, AND CO. Y. IYHEr . B..--ok3 f4Tovz9•*. ANTELOPE. IMPORTANT INVENTION. Mr. Buchanan, of Basinghall-street, appeared for the plaintiff. _ The ease has been before the Court several times, and it appears that plaintiffs had agreed to supply defendant with a gas-stove to burn in his private office. After it was deli vered defendant refused to pay, as the stove_ would not burn. Defendant insisted that he should not be called on to pay; but Mr. Buchanan - stated that the room in which the stove was fixed was ventilated in so defective a manner that it was impossible for the stove to act. Plaintiffs had offered to alter the stove, and had done so. They had affixed a newly-invented draught-pipe, and now the stove burnt very well. His Honour wa,s very glad to hear it, and gave plaintiffs a verdict for £2 Os. lOd. He remarked that in taking orders for gag stoves, 'plaintiffs shoukt satisfy , themselves that the room in which the stove was to be fixed was ventilated. LOSS OF . THE AMERICAN SHIP- (From the Hong Kong Daily Press, Aug. 16.) The ship Antelope, Clarke, of New York, left the outer anchorage of Bangkok on the 27th ult., for Hong Kong, with a cargo of general merchandise. The voyage prospered without any occurrence worthy of note until sth inst., on which day good observations were taken, which made the ship about 70 miles distant from Discovery Shoal (Paracels). A course was accordingly steered N. by E., which course gave the shoal a wide berth of 40 miles. During the night of the sth the wind was very light, and on the morning of the 6th, between half-past 6 and 7, the ship struck the shoal. There was no appear ance of breakers, nor rocks above water ; the sea at the time was quite smooth. Discoguredwater had been seen a minute before the ship struck, but there was not time to alter the course. It should here be mentioned that observations made when the ship was on, the shoal gave her position cor rectly, which, proving the chronometer to be right, leaves no doubt that the current had set the ship 40 miles out of her course between noon of the sth and 6 a.m. of the 6th, or 18 hours. Immediately upon the ship striking an anchor was run out, but no bottom could be found at a very short distance from the ship. It was let go notwithstanding ; but the warp attached to it, on being hove taut, pointed at far too sharp an 'angle to render it of aity efficacy in heaving off. The tide was decidedly falling soon after the ship struck, and cargo was jettisoned, in the hope that the ship might have struck at half-flood, and would float off next tide ; but this proved a vain hope, for the tide continued falling until 5 p.m., making it clear that the ebb and flood each ran 12 hours, and that the ship, must have grounded at the top of ! the flood. The fall of the tide proved considerable, leaving only three feet of water under the ship. The entire shoal then became visible. Its shape is elliptical, about eight miles in diameter one way, by six the other. the formation is not coral, but dark coloured rock, mostly sharp-pointed. The ship's position was most critical. Being to windward of the shoal the little sea there was beat so heavily upon her that it was a matter of difficulty to launch the boats, and indeed one of them got stove. With wind and sea thus beating on her, and nothing to heave off by, all hopes of saving the ship were abandoned, and, it being clear if any breeze should spring up there would be no possibility of getting the boats clear, it was decided to quit at once, notwithstanding that night was setting in and there was no moon. Accordingly at 6 p.m. the crew took to their boats. After mature _delibera tion it was deemed prudent to take no arms, under the idea that they might cause trouble and could do no good—a sad mistake, as the sequel will prove. The master, one European, three Chinese passengers, ten white and three coloured seamen, were told off for one boat, making eighteen all told; whilst the mate, one seaman, and eight Chinese passengers were told off for the other boat, making ten in all. The captain's boat was crowded and very deep—the mate's much less so, and, al though a smaller boat, was a much better risk. The intention was to keep company and make for the nearest land, which was a place called on the charts Leong-soey, on the coast of Hainan. During the first night (1. e., the 6th instant), the boats parted company, and nothing has been since heard of the mate's boat. The captain's boat made the high land of- Hainan on the 9th, without encountering any bad _weather, and on the 10th fell in with two fishing-boats, with whom communica tions of a friendly nature were opened. Water was thegreat requirement, and the fishermen agreed to tow the Antelope's boat for 20 dols. to a place where water might be got. Accordingly .a line was made fast, but instead of towing, the' fish-boat began backing and filling, and describing a circle. This proceeding was remonstrated against and resulted in a squabble, the fishermen demanding more money. A second boat fnll of men was now seen bearing down, and it was clear their, intentions were hostile. Captain Clarke therefore made off under sails and oars, and succeeded in getting away from the rascals. That night an oar was broken, which was. converted into bludgeons ; the sailors made some slung shot, and a hatchet was found at the bottom of the boat. It was then wisely determined to repel force by force, concilia tion with a cowardly foe being construed into pussillanimity. They continued on their voyage northward, skirting the coast in desperate straits for water, when the following morning, the 11th inst., upon rounding an island, they saw three fish ing boats bearing down upon them, CS idently with unfriendly intentions. Captain Clarke kept away, hoping to elude them, but the breeze freshening they could outsail him; he, however, got them all astern and some distance apart. On the first com ing up she commenced throwing large stones, two men standing in the bow with spears. Having no means of resisting, Capt. Clarke made signs of sub mission, and threw a line as a signal to be allowed to come alongside, but the Chinese were too wary, and the Antelope's boat f e ll i n t o their wake. Captain. Clarke then cut the line and made an attempt to escape by pulling—he got a little dis tance ahead, when the China boat ran into his stern, carrying away the rudder and staving in the quar ter. The two Chinese still kept guard with spears at the bow, precluding all possibility of boardins, and under these circumstances everything was surrendered to them and passed out of the boat over the stern. The sight of the plunder was too much for the Chinamen. They relaxed their vigi lance, allowing the Antelope's boat to fall along side. There had been no plan of attack concocted, because no opportunity of resistance was hoped for, but no sooner did this chance present itself, than two sturdy Jacks sprung on the China boat's deck. Capt. Clarke followed, but not having the use of his legs after being cramped up so long in the boat, he got tripped up and fell overboard. ' Long before he could get on board' again his crew had over powered the Chinese, killing all save one, who jumped into the water badly wounded,but as the other two China boats made off immediately the altered state of affairs became developed, he must have been drowned. The Chinese numbered twelve. The surprise was complete; not one of the Ante lopes men was wounded, and all the property was recovered. The 'prize had water and rice in abun dance. A course was steered for this port, where they arrived in two days, i.e. on the 13th inst. Unless.the mate should. have fallen into the hands of Philistines such as we have described, Captain Clarke eonsiders he must be safe ; but as he had no chronometer, he would necessarily make the coast a long way north of the point he was directed to steer for, by reason of the current setting in that direction with considerable velocity. The Antelope was chartered by the opium farmer. We hear that her cargo was valuable, say upwards of 100,000 dollars. August 23.—The master _reports that the mate and a seaman, who were in another boat, had been murdered by pirates. GOVERNMENT EMIGRATION. Her Majesty's Emigration Commissioners chartered yesterday afternoon, the 21st inst., the Medina, 959 tons, to sail from Liverpool for Melbourne," Victoria, at £l3 16s. per statute adult, to be ready for the reception of pasSengers on such day as the Commissioners may appoint, betwcenthe 29th of November and the 6th of December. They have also given notice of their intention: to receive tenders next Thursday, the 23th inst., for ships - to proceed to Sydney, New South Wales, and to Perth, Western Australia ; the former vessel to be ready to sail any day the Conunissioners may fix upon,_ between the 6th and 13th December, and the latter to be ready any day between the 22d and 29th of December. REMARKABLE ESCAPE.—A young man named Tovey was engaged in his calling as a chi mne y s w ee p er , a t Prestbury, on Thursday last, at The Hayes, the residence of Dr. Disney Thorpe. Having occasion to go .out on the roof of the house to clean the tip of a flue, his foot slipped by some mischance, and he was precipitated into the stalk yard below, a distance of nearly 50 feet. It is stated that he fell upon his head, but be this as it may, singular to state no bones were broken, and the unfortunate young man received' only a severe shock to the system, several contusions on .different parts of ihe body, and a few flesh wounds about the head and face. The patient is going on well, and there is every probability of his speedy recovery. —Cheltenham Examiner. COURT-MARTIAL ON THREE FRENCH OFFICERS. — We mentioned lately that three French officers of rank have been brought to a court-martial in Africa for embeztlement. The following particulars of this serious affair now appear in the Paris newspapers :—" A great sensation has been caused in French military circles by the trial before a mili tary tribunal, sitting at Blidah, in Algeria., on three officers, Chef d'Escadron S—, Capt. —, and Capt. M.-- who were successively paymasters of the Ist Spahis, for having embezzled 88,168 f., the property of the Govern ment. It appeared from the evidence that the prisoner . , as paymasters, had the disposal of considerable funds for the purchase of forage, and that they appropriated portions of them,, disguising their frauds by false accounts. The frauds extended over six years, and amounted altogether, as - near as could be made out, t0.14,049f.. by the Chef d'Es cadron; 28;007f. by Capt. A—, and 46,112 f. by Capt. M—; but though they had all committed exactly the same sort of fraud, they had not, it appeared, acted in common; though each knew of the frauds of the others, and was to a certain extent responsible for them. It was by accident that the embezzlements were discovered. In addition to the 88,1681. brought home to the three accused, a deficit of about 15,000f d '. was found to exist, but it could not be precisely ascert ea si r le , by which of them it was occasioned. After t hearing counsel for the prisoners, the tribunal de - guilty, and condemned SI-- to dismissal declared all array and. three years' imprisonment; tdairysmdil_seesgraladapad a knight, four years' imprisonment ; and A-- M— to was at degrada tion n officer and fi v af e years' h Legion h dla o b f o Honour,ur. . T he a n p d risin_er and both were declared to have forfeited their decorations." DEATH FROM 'RECKLESS DRlVlNG.—Yesterday Mr. Wakley held an inquest at the Elephant and Castle, St. Pans rds, on the body of a poor old man, named Med ealfe. On Tuesday the deceased wasin the Pancras-road, on his way to the workhouse, when, in crossing the road, he was knocked down by the horses. of a coal Waggon belong ing to the Great-Northern Railway, and the wheels passed over both legs, crushing them in a frightful manner.. Re was carried to Mr. Sutherin's surgery, but be only su rv i ved a few hours. The drivers of these vehicles are pro,rb for their recklessness, Yerdict—" Accidental death SINGULAR DEFENCE.-BOWGEN V. BRIGGS. This was an action to recover the sum of 25., balance of a ally account. A person, who appeared for the defendant, said there was a mistake, plaintiff had sued for too little or he would have been paid. (Laughter.) The amount should have been 3s 10d. His Honour—Well, that is a strange excuse for not paying, but the expenses will nearly bring it - up to the amount... Verdict for plaintiff. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day). BOW-STREET, MORE MARKET ROBBERIES. — This morning, three boys, named Macdonald, Elliott, and Larkin, wore placed at the bar charged with stealing a quantity of walnuts. Mr. Jacobs said—l am a salesman in Covent-garden Market. Last evening, after my, stand was covered, I left for Paddington. On my return, about half-past six, I ob served a sack containing walnuts had been cut, and a large quantity taken away. I told the constable of the circum stance, and in a short time he brought the three boys back. On searching them walnuts were found in the pockets of each. About a peck had been stolen when I found out the hole in the sack ; but, had the aperture not been discovered by the morning, the whole bagful would have dis appeared. The robberies in the market have now be come so frequent that to find your property next morning as you left it is the exception, not the rule. The rascals don't care what property they destroy to get at the fruit; frequently tarpaulings, which cost a great deal of money, are rendered useless, in order to steal a few pence worth' of fruit. Mr. Henry—How many night watchmen are there em- ployed ? ConstableL-Two, your worship. Mr. Henry—ls that enough to look after so much pro perty ? Constable—There have never been any more. Mr. Henry—l hardly think two sufficient. Do you know the boys P Constable—Oh yes, your worship. They are always about the market. On M'Donald I found a knife and sharpening stone. The mother of M'Donald here steppedforward and said her son had no necessity to steal, as he had a good home. He unfortunately associated ' with bad characters. The knife and stone he used at his work—sackmaking. Mr. Henry—l shall send them to the House of Detention fora week, where they will be ' kept solitary ; but if they ever come here again I will send them to prtsoa for a longer term. A DRUNKEN LINKMAN.—John Smith, a linkman at tending the theatres, was charged with drunkenness. Police-sergeant F 1, said—Last night, shortly aft& eleven, the prisoner was in front of Drury-lane Theatre, and, on a cab driving up to take_ up two ladies, the prisoner and another man rushed to the door of the cab and began fight ing as to who was to have the privilege of escorting the two ladies to the vehicle: During the fight the two ladies were nearly knocked down. I came up and took the pri soner into custody. The linkmeh have become a com plete nuisance.. Thirteen or fourteen of them are nightly in attendance, and it is with difficulty any person can .escape their importutities. Prisoner—l wasn't drunk; I was a-looking arter the ladies: I was up first with the cab. I had hold o' the handle. Mr. Henry—Yes, I know. You had a fight for the six pence that was to be deinanded for fetching the cab. Such a nuisance must •be put an end to. It is not to be borne that respectable ladies leaving a public theatre are to be annoyed, and perhaps—during one of these fights— assaulted: I fine you 10s., or seven days' imprisonment. CHINESE BEGGARS.—Two Chinamen, _with very long tails, one of whom spoke English, were placed at the bar, charged with begging. They appeared to be rather supe rior, in their appearance, to the poor objects that are so fre quently seen in our streets. The tall man said his name was Tin-yang, and his companion's Thin-yah. Hewitt, the mendicity officer, said he saw the prisoners begging, and took them into custody. Mr. Henry—When did you arrive in England ? The tall man—Fourteen weeks ago—me came in ship Victoria from Calcutta. He come also. Mr. Henry—You must not beg in London. I shall send you to the office at the other end of the town, in order that you may be sent back to China. The worthy magistrate then gave directions accordingly, and told the officer ho should have money to convey them to the office in Lime house. Hewitt said he had taken elevenpence from the tall man and he could pay the expenses of the boat out of that. Immediately John Chinaman heard he had to pay his own travelling expenses, he began blubbering like a child at the prospect of losing his savings. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. ASSAULT ON A LICENSED VICTUALLER AND EX PUGILIST.—EIiza Vasey was charged with committing an assault on Alexander Findlay (better known as " Alec Keen"), formerly a pugilist, but now the proprietor of the Three Tuns, Moon-street, Soho. Mr. Lewis, of Great Marlborough-street, appeared for the complainant. }Com the evidence of the complainant it appeared that on the previous night the prisoner was brought into his house, she having previously smashed a ➢ane of plate glass of the value of £7. As soon as she saw him she began kicking him, and made use of very disgusting language, and threatened to kill him. She said, alluding to the window, that "she had done it to rights this time," having previously done a similar thing. A witness named Richardson proved seeing the prisoner throw a piece of brick through the window and taking her into the house, and while doing so she tried to bite him. He also saw her kick Mr. Keen. In defence the prisoner said she had formerly been con nected with the prosecutor, but had left him some years. She had sent some one to ask him to assist het, and as he did not he went herself. She was excited at the time and broke the window. Mr. Bingham said it all arose from drinking. If she had any wrongs to get redressed.she should go sober. He could see from her manner before him what sort of woman she was. He should fine her 40s. for the assault, or two months' imprisonment, and at the end of that time she must find two sureties for,her good behaviour for pia months. IMPORTANT CAUTION TO THE PUBLIC.—A respectable female named Davies, the wife of a tailor, residing 'at 9, Carlisle-street, Soho, appeared before Mr. Bingham, to acquaint him with a heartless practice now being; carried on, and which to persons in humble c ircumstances—and small tradesmen are those generally selected —and those having friends abroad, is a matter of some consequence. The applicant said that that morning she received a letter bearing the Hamburg postmark, and for which she had to pay Bd. postage, and on opening it she merely found these printed papers. _ _ The applicant here handed to Mr. Bingham two printed papers, one of which bears the heading." Sketch of a British Constitution through a Dictator," sad the other " A Plan for a Commercial Palace." The applicant said she was aware she could do no other good in the matter than, by exposing the practice, warn others to be on their guard. She thought it was too bad to said such letters to persons who could not afford to pay for those that they received from their friends. Mr. Bingham said it was a scandalous thing, and the only remedy was not to take such letters in. The applicant then retired. iStoc c t -Bto PREFERENCE SHARES.

About an average supply of English wheat (2,130 quar ters) has been received up. to our market this we k, coast wise; but the arrivals by land carriage have continued limited. Although the nuinber of samples on offer this - - morning was small, there was no activity in the demand ; nevertheless, Monday's prices were supported. Foreign wheat, the shOiV r of which was large, met a dull inquiry. In the quotations , however, no change took place... _ Floating cargoes realised full currencies. We had a fair demand for both barley and malt, the prices of which were well sUppotted. Tho oat trade was steady; at full quOtations, although the fresh supply of foreign amounted to 27,660 us: Beans, peas, and flour were firm'in price, but the busi ness doing in them was only moderate.
