MONEY MARKET AND CITY NEW A 9. CITY, Two o'CLocx. More animation has prevailed in the Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets during the last few days, and prices generally have shown an upward tendency. For tea, however, the inquiries have been very limited. Sugars have slightly advanced, particularly good and fine grocery qualities for home consumption, and in the refined market higher rates have been current for dried descrip tions. Coffee at public sale remained at firm quo tations. Sound and fine kinds of fruit continue in demand. For rice and spices there have been steady inquiries. Saltpetre remains moderately active, but no change was apparent in prices, and tallow has been dealt in to a fair extent at 595. 6d. to 595. 9d. for present and forward delivery. Accounts from Liverpool report that the Cotton Market yesterday closed with rather more anima tion, and previous rates wore firmly maintained. The sales amounted to 10,000 bales. There is very little alteration in the general dis count market, which remains quiet, and without any change of importance as regards the terms of accommodation. A steady inquiry is reported for commercial purposes, and parties engaged in dis count transactions are not disposed to negotiate first-class bills under 2f4 per cent. The first report of the Madras Irrigation and Canal Company has been issued, preparatory to the meeting on the 27th inst. The directors congra tulate the shareholders, upon the present highly satisfactory position and prospects of the undertak ing. It dwells at some length on Trombuddra pro. feet, the reports on which are very encouraging, and gives a general view of the proceedings over a Period of two years, during which time the preli minary expenses amounted to only £2,770 17s. sd. A sum of about £15,000 in bar gold was taken from the Bank of England yesterday for transmis sion to the Continent. The market for English Securities to-day has presented rather a quiet appearance, and the quo tations have denoted increased heaviness, a de cline of nearly 1 per cent. having taken place. The transactions, both real and speculative, have been very limited. Consols have been 961 4 f and they are now 961, with a downward tendency. The heaviness of the market is increased by the telegrams from the Paris Bourse, which report further symptoms of uneasiness in the Rentes. The New Threes have receded to 94t 95 ; the Reduced to 948.958 ; and Exchequer Bills to 28s. prem. Bank Stock is firm, at 222 to 221; India ditto at 2211 to 223 ; ditto New is heavy, at 103 1 9 ; ditto Scrip 1021 ; and the Loan Deben tures are 97. Business in the Foreign Stock Market continues inactive, and prices are heavy. Turkish 6 per Cents. are 781 to 791 ; ditto New, 68 to 69 ; Mexican is flat, at 221 d ; Spanish, at 461 ; and Portuguese at 464 ; Peruvian 3 per Cents. are steady at 701. Messrs. D.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner Pane.) IN RE BOWACK This bankrupt was described as of Paul-street, Finsbury, builder. The accounts were prepared by Messrs. Hart Brothers, and showed a surplus on the account and a balance in favour of creditors. His Honour said that the property given up was a proof of honesty. The bankrupt had given up a large amount. The bankrupt might, therefore, take an immediate certifi cate of the second class. IN RE WOOD. This bankrupt was described as of Puckeridge, Hertz, grocer, and came up for his certificate on accounts by Messrs. Butler and Cannings. An examination took place. His Honour said, as regarded the figures of the accounts he had no doubt that they were correct—the bankrupt's statement had been challenged, which would form a ground of future application. At present he (his Honour) would leave all questions for the certificate meeting. Passed accordingly. IN RE GLADWELL. This bankrupt was described as of the Poultry, whole sale dealer, and obtained a certificate of the first class. The accounts by Messrs. Hart Brothers and Co. IN JtE BARBER. This bankrupt, described as of Little Bentley, Essex, came up for his last examination. Accounts by Messrs. Hart Brothers. The total debts were £5,800. Assets about £2,000. Bankrupt passed. SHERIFFS' COURT. (Before Mr. Kerr.) COSTS ON JUDGMENT SUMMONSES-LINES V. HOOD. This was a judgment summons, and had been adjourned from yesterday, as neither plaintiff nor defendant appeared. Mr. Beard thought that plaintiff's presence could be dis pensed with. His Honour said plaintiff must attend and give evidence as to defendant's means. Plaintiff now appeared and said he was a tailor, and had supplied defendant, who is in a good situation, with two suits of clothes. He was still in an excellent berth. His Honour committed defendant for 20 days. Mr. Beard applied for his costs and was refused, his Honour observing that he had no power to order costs on a judgment summons. He saw by the newspapers of this day that a great deal was going to be done, and perhaps this matter would be introduced. A WOMAN WITII FIVE HUSBANDS-LIABILITY OF THE FIFTII-THURSTON V. PAYNE. This was an action for goods sold and delivered to Mrs. Payne. His Honour—Who had all these chops and steaks ? What is the defence ? Mr. Buchanan—The defence is that plaintiff trusted a woman who has been convicted at the Old Bailey for bigamy—defendant having been her fifth husband. His Honour-1 suppose defendant was living with this extraordinary woman at the time. There is cohabitation, and in law these things being necessary he is liable. Mr. Buchanan—My client will prove that he gave the woman plenty of money for the house. , Plaintiff—He promised my daughter payment. Defendant—l deny it. His Honour—'We must have the daughter here. This case will be adjourned till the last court !lay in the month, and defendant had better produce all documents. BEVAN V. PAYNE. This was a second case against the same defendant, and plaintiff, who is a grocer, swore to a promise to pay, and called a witness to the same effect. Mr. Buchanan called defendant, who denied it. His Honour recollected the case of the woman who had been convicted before Mr. Justice Willos in August last. Defendant must pay. If it had been a case of diamonds or shawls, the matter might be different, but these things were necessaries. Defendant was a very unfortunate man, and had married in a hurry. He would make a rule to pay in ten days. The plaintiff would adopt a wise course, and give time. There was an immense number of orders against the poor defendant, and if he was committed ho would lose his situation under Government. This was a very bad case, and he should advise defendant to call his creditors together. Mr. Buchanan would be able to make them listen to reason. Mr. Buchanan—l think that will be the best course. His Honour—There may be a lot of other cases against him, and it is very awkward for him. If pressed, he will be discharged. If, in the other case, Mr. Thurston's daughter proves a demand for the bill, it had better be settled. Defendant—l went round to the tradesmen expressly forbidding them to give credit. It is supposed that the authorities would not discharge the defendant, under all the circumstances, if he were to seek relief, under this peculiar position of affairs. STOPPING THE CLASHING OF THE COURTS.- THE MUTUAL LOIN FUND ASSOCIATION V. WICKEN. This was a judgment summons, and Mr. Beard, for de fendant, put in his discharge by one of the commissioners of the Insolvent Debtors' Court. His Honour said ho could not snake any order. He con sidered the judgment was disposed of by rho other court. This settles a vexed question.. 2IfIDDLESEX SESSIONS-THIS DA Y. (Before Mr. Bodkin, Assistant-Judge, at Guildhall, Westminster.) THE QUEEN V. PETERSON-TRE RELIGIOUS DISTURBANCES IN ST. GEORGE'S-IN-TIIE-EAST. This was a prosecution against John Peterson, instituted by the parish authorities, for having, with several other persons not indicted, disturbed a congregation assembled for Divine worship in the parish of St. George-in-the-East on several occasions. The Assistant-Judge asked if there was no course opea to save this painful inquiry. Mr. Sleigh said they only wanted to be protected from interruption. Mr. Sergeant Ballantine said, on the part of the defen dant, he denied the facts. The Assistant-Judge said that the prosecution could not be blamed for the course which had been taken on the facts stated ; but the only power the Court had was to in flict a pecuniary penalty, which could not be the object of these proceedings. He would put it to them whether it would not be better really to withdraw them. Mr. Sleigh said, having consulted with his friend Mr. Poland, they would withdraw, and hoped they should not again be called upon to invoke the power of the law. A ♦erdict of not guilty was then taken, which was re ceived with some applause in court, but this was imme diately suppressed. The proceedings then terminated, and the defendant left the court with his friends. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-(TIIIS DAY.) MANSION-HOUSE. Henry Judge, a boy about 12 years of age, was charged with stealing coupons and bonds of the value of £6OO or £7OO, the property of Mr. A. Johnstone, insurance broker, Royal Exchange, his master. Mr. Johnstone said that coupons and bonds for £l,OOO were stolen from his safe, also some money out of the desk. The prisoner had cashed 19 coupons at the bank, and re ceived nearly £6O in money. The prisoner was in his em ployment as clerk about sight months. John Dirvan, clerk to Messrs. Glen and Co., pro duced nine coupons cashed on the Bth Oct. Edward Walker, clerk to Mr. Johnstone, said that £4O or £5O had been missed from the drawer. The prisoner admitted he had taken £l7 out of the drawer, and he took from his pocket £l2 10s. and gave it to witness, and said ho would try to make it all up. Witness allowed the prisoner to go till yesterday, and on making up the books, he found £lB deficient, including £29 for merly discovered. The writing on the back of one of the coupons is the Prisoner's handwriting. Cross-examined by the prisoner —In August, twelve sovereigns were missed from the drawer, and not discovered. Mr. Johnstone's son had taken some money from the drawer for commission. Tho drawer was left open dating the night. Mr. Johnstone was recalled and said the cash in the drawer was his son's, who is in business for himself and not connected with tha Insurance Office. The pri soner was not in his service. Witness did not know there was any deficiency of cash in that drawer. Cross-examined by the prisoner —Witness thinks the prisoner told him he had taken home the bonds to cut the coupons off them, as he had some difficulty in doing so. The prisoner was committed for trial. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. IMPORTANT TO CARRIAGE OWNERS.—Gee. Skinner, a rough-looking fellow, was charged as follows : Sergeant Silverton, of the A division, said that about seven the previous evening he was in Park-lane with 108 C, both in plain clothes, when be saw the prisoner coming through Grosvenor-gate 'with the bag produced under his arm, and make across the road to a small enclosure, where several carriage cushion-covers had recently been found. He stopped him, and asked what was in the bag, and on his (Silverton's) examining it he found that it contained a largo quantity of horse-hair, and which, from its com pressed state, had evidently been just taken from a carriage cushion, the p-actice, which had been very common of late, being to seize the cushions as the carriages were going rapidly along, and then to take them to the meat con venient place, transfer the horse hair to a bag carried for the purpose, and then to throw away the covers, some of which had recently been found. Two or three robberies of the kind had taken place in the park yesterday evening. On asking the prisoner where he got it, he made the com mon answer, " That a man gave it to him to carry, told him to follow him, but that he had missed him." Mr. Bingham said that he might assist the police in find ing the man, and he would remand him for a week. ANNOYING A DOCTOR.—John SomerlancT, a member of a German band, was charged with annoying Dr. Frere, Of 9, Queen-street, Mayfair, by refusing to go when requested ; hustling him, &c. The defendant said he was engaged to play, and that he should not go without he was paid to do so. Mr. Bingham having explained the law to the defendant, fined him 40s. THAMES. • IMPITDENT ROBBERY.—Caroline Harris, aged 35, and described as a washerwoman, was brought before Mr. Yardley, charged with stealing 240 yards of printed cotton from the shop of Mr. Abraham Beasley, linendraper, of No. 1, Albion-place, Commercial-road East. Francis Morris, shopman in the employ of Mr. Beasley, stated that he saw the prisoner and another woman looking at the piles of cotton print in front of the shop yes terday evening. His attention was diverted fur a moment, and, upon turning round again, he saw the prisoner's com panion remove several pieces of cotton print from a pile and walk away with them. The prisoner walked by the side of her confederate. He went after the two women, and the one who had the cotton print dropped it en the pave ment and ran away. The prisoner picked up the cotton print and ran as fast as her load would permit her, into Belgrave-street, by the side of Goldsmith's and Blyton's premises. He overtook her in Belgrave street with the property in her possession. She said she picked up the print, and tried to get away, but he held her fast until a policeman arrived. _ _ Police-constable Pople, No. 288 K, said that when he took the prisoner into custody. the prisoner said " I did not take it; it was on the pavement, and I picked it up." The prisoner pleaded guilty, and asked for mercy on ac count of her dear fatherless children. Mr. Yardley—This woman has been here before. Inspector Griffin, of the K division, Roche, the gaoler of the court, and other officers, said the prisoner had been in custody before on more than one occasion, but they could not tell when the last conviction took place, or for what offence. The prisoner declared she had never been in custody before, and that many constables looked at her in the cell, and could not identify her. Inspector Griffin—l have seen the prisoner in custody here. Mr. Yardley—l know the prisoner's face well. Sho has been here several times, and I have no doubt she is a most incorrigible thief. The magistrate then sentenced the pri soner to six months' imprisonment and hard labour, and in conclusion said—" This is the last time I intend to com mit you summarily, and next time you are brought before me I will commit you for trial if a case is made out." SIR C. NAPIER AND THE NAVY. TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES. Sir,—When an officer of high rank and great experience comes forward to address the public through the press on the state of ;a p: ofession with which he has been intimately connected, for many years, the public has a right to expect something more than a vague denunciation of existing abuses, and a few mild suggestions as to the best mode of remedying them. Sir Charles Napier commences his letter to the First Lord by a repetition of the oft repeated com plaint, that although since the peace of 1815 we have always found a difficulty in manning newly commissioned ships, and have been put to great ex pense in consequence, no Board of Admiralty has ever hit on a method of manning the navy econo mically or expeditiously. He considers that disgust is engendered in the navy, and that seamen are deterred from joining it through the existence of a variety of unredresscd grievances, some of which he enumerates. Among them are to be found unnecessary confinement, the discomfort of hulks, infrequent payment, a faulty system of clothing, and lengthened periods of ser vice on foreign stations. Now, no one can object to the gallant admiral bringing these matters to the notice of the naval authorities, or can do otherwise than honour him for wishing to see these orany other abuses, affect ing the comfort and well-being of our gallant tars, promptly and effectually remedied ; but surely there are graver matters of complaint which he has left unnoticed, though on former occasions they have not escaped the gallant officer's well-deserved con• demn ation. What does seem objectionable in the gallant officer's remarks is simply this :—At a time when it is more than ever necessary that the real state of the navy should be thoroughly understood through out the country, and when the necessity of sup planting the present vicious system (so full of grie vances as regards the individuals who compose the service, and so faulty in everything which relates to a permanent and economical effieiency) by an en tirely new organisation is almost universally ad mitted, he attempts to draw away the attention of the public from the graver points at issue by bring ing forward minor matters of complaint, as if they were apart from, and not intimately bound up with, the exising system as it now stands. It is, indeed, greatly to be feared that until naval officers of rank, whose opinions, like those of Sir Charles Napier, must necessarily carry great weight, are induced to take a wider and more comprehen sive view of the wants and requirements of the naval service, nothing will be done towards inaugu• rating those vast changes which are so imperatively demanded in its constitution. The real question at issue with regard to the navy is this, flow ought our navy to be constituted in time of peace so that we may be best prepared to meet the contingencies which must'arise on the sudden outbreak of a maritime -war ? It has long been admitted that we ought to have a standing navy, and that our first efforts should be directed to its establishment, but by a strange fatality we have substituted for it the enrolment of men for what is called continuous service, than which no two things can be more dissimilar. Our first consideration, then, should be directed towards the establishment of this standing navy,— the best method of securing a reserve, however im portant the subject may be, is necessarily secondary to it. The establishment of a standing navy may be considered to be imperative, because without it, it is impossible to organise any system that will pro vide for the proper selection, instruction, distribu tion, or promotion of our seamen, even should we have no difficulty whatever in procuring them. It is imperative, because without it it is impossible to establish any permanent bond of union between the officers and men. It is imperative, because without it the principles of military organisation so essen tial to the discipline of all large bodies of Mell brought together as combatants cannot be made applicable to the seamen of Great Britain. We have boys in abundance, and men would not be wanting. England swarms with them—stout, athletic young fellows, ready to enter as seamen at a word, to be made seamen with a little time and teaching. Would it not be a just subject of pride for our naval officers to be able to point to their ships' companies, and say," Look at those fine fel• lows. We made them sailors !" Yes, sailors ; such as we want in these days to fight our ships ; not the "half-monkey half-man" of the romantic school, or the sea-soldier of those who would man our fleets with marines, but an instructed seaman and a well-taught gunner, raised in his own estimation and in that of the public by being privileged to wear the uniform of her Majesty's navy. Should you think these few lines worthy of in sertion, I may at some future time endeavour to show how all this, and much more, might be done, if, instead of continuing to lament over present ina bility to procure " ready-made" seamen, we could only manage to throw our old prejudices overboard, and set to work in right good earnest to manufac ture them for ourselves. We have had quite enough of these useless lamen tations. It is high time that we should try some thing else.—l have the honour to be, sir, your very obedient servant, DELTA. Portsmouth, Oct. 18. A WOMAN ONE HUNDRED AND TEN YEARS OF AGE.—There is now in Liverpool a singular person, named Elizabeth Roberts, or "Betty Roberts,' as she is familiarly t e rmed by her acquaintances, who, according t o her own s tatement, was born in Northop , Flintshire , 9 or in the 22d year of the reig n of George llthus attained to the ago of 110, and from presennt,e . "Betty" appearances it is possible she may survive many years lo resides at the back of St. Martin's Aarket, Scotland-road, and almost every fine day she may be l seen l a nding-stage, or about the markets and on the south other . public places in the town. The lan din g -sta g e is her principal resort on Sunday afternoons, where she generally attracts round her a group of persons, who , as tonished at her g reat a g e, as well as amused by her loquacity, frequentiy drop her a few cop pers, although it @u ht to be stated she never solicits cha rity. Her frame is shrunken and withered, but still she is erect and steady in gait, and with stick in hand she boasts that she can yet manage to walk three miles an hour. Sh e a tt r ibutes her extended life in a measure to her simple habits, and states that she has never used any intoxicating liquors. TRAVELLING EXTRAORDINARY.—A singular in cident occurred on Friday last, at the station of the Great Western Railway, Gloucester. A little girl, the child of re spectable parents living in the vicinity o f th e ra il way, it ap pears, rather late in th evening was close by the rails, and strolled into a horsebox, into which she was enabled to get in consequence of the carriage being then on a siding. Here the little thing fell fast asleep, and slept so soundly, that in a short time afterwards some of the porters went to the car riage, and subsequently a horse was placed in it for convey ance to Hereford. Undisturbed by these movements, and undiscovered by the porters themselves, the child slept on, and the carriage being attached to the 8.15 p.m. train, she and the horse we re soon on th e i r way together. At about half-past nine they reached Hereford, where, of course, the animal had t...) be rt moved, and the astonishment of the por ters there may be better imagined than described at discover ing so very unusual an occupant of a horse-box. The child was still asleep. On tidings being learnt respecting her, she was sent back to Gloucester next morning, her parents being much pleased at her restoration. 96 si at 35} 1061 1 1 60 1 i 91 90} d 77i i 72 17 18 10 101 73 75 19 20 91 10 141 151 139 141 I 119 9 10 L 22 121 1 4 P CS 70 [4O 142 103 104 94 95 9i 91 11 311 10 112 07 109 90 92 90 97 11 IP io 23 2 4 123 125 123 126 114 114 99 100 74 75 120 124 120 125 lc 11 231 24] 103 104 102 104 28 29 32i :13 32 33 54 56 96i d 110 112 64 66 115 120 i 92 94 2i 21 97i pm 391 9 40 39 98 74 ITIES.
