The Sun. — London, England, 1858-10-12 00:00:00

110NEI MA YITY NETVS, CITY, Two o'CLocx. The markets for Foreign and Colonial Produce during the last few days have been exceedingly dull, the demand for most of the leading staples having diminished. Tea, however, has slightly im proved, as the telegraphic advices from China announce that the quantity to be shipped during the season would be considerably short of that in the preceding year. The stocks here show a defi ciency of about 8,000,000 lbs. compared with those . at the same period in 1857. Sugar has been exceed ingly dull, although prices continue to be well supported. In the refined market the transactions have been limited, and confined to small quantities for home consumption. Coffee continues firm, and plantation Ceylon realises full values. Cocoa has slightly improved, but rice, rum, and spices have been dull. For fruit there has been a moderate demand, more particularly for new currants, which have slightly improved ; but Valencia raisins and figs have shown a downward movement in values. Saltpetre continues in fair demand, and prices remain firm. Tallow has been inactive, very few transactions having been reported, and prices have exhibited no alteration of importance. Letters from Liverpool report that the Cotton Market yesterday closed very firmly, and 8,000 bales were sold at full quotations. The Railway Share Market presented rather more animation, and the prices of all the leading lines Unproved- The Australian mail contract, which has been some time in suspense, has just been awarded to the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company, who had as their competitors the Royal Mail Company. It is to be hoped that this decision will prove satisfactory to the commercial classes connected with Australia, who have hitherto been seriously inconvenienced by the previous irregu larities of the service. About £25,000 in gold was taken into the Bank yesterday. The silver market is rather brisker, there being a slight demand for the East ; bars arc quoted ss. 14d. per ounce ; standard and dollars, 4s. 111 d. per ounce. No material change has taken place in the gene ral features of discount market, but the tendency of monetary affairs on the Continent may, it is thought, induce the Bank Directors to maintain the existing regulations despite the accumulation of gold. At this season of the year the require ments of the commercial public usually increase, and as the instalments on account of loans, and other undertakings, now absorb a large aggregate amount, it is not considered improbable that the tendency of the market may show some slight indi cation of a permanent change. It is generally expected that the Continental Exchanges this afternoon will show a further downward tendency. • Although there has been a flatter tone in the market for Public Securities no actual decline of i mPertance has taken place. The settlement is Progressing favourably, and increased strength was created by the appearance of the Government broker as a buyer of New 3 per Cents. Specula tion for a rise is still being carried on to a moderate extent, which, • together with a few purchases for investment, has imparted firmness to the market. Consols are now 982 4 for money, and 984 for the account. The New 3 per Cents. are firm at 971 4, and also the Reduced. India Stock has been dealt in at 224 ; do. Deben tures at 993 4, and those of the 2d issue 994; do. Scrip, 2d issue, 99! ; and the Bonds (under £1,000), 1 ls. to 14s. - The March Exchequer Bills are 355., and June ditto, 28s. to 295. prem. A depressed tone is apparent in the Foreign Stock Market, and prices are rather lower. Turkish 6 per Cents. are 941 95 ; ditto Scrip, Ist, prem. ; ditto, 2d, 11 2 prem. ; ditto 4 per Cent., 105 ; Peruvian 41 per Cents., 901; ditto 3 per Cents., 70 ; Portuguese 3 per Cents., 474 ; Russian 41 per Cents., 101; Brazilian 41 per Cents. (1858), 9 74 ; Equador Provisional Land Warrants, 44 ; and Dutch 41 per Cents., 1004. In the Railway Share Market the transactions this morning have been rather numerous, and in creased buoyancy has been apparent in prices. Bristol and Exeter, Caledonian, Eastern Counties, Great Western and Brighton, improved 10s. ; Man chester, Sheffield, and Lincoln, North British and North-Eastern (Berwick), ss; North-Western and South-Eastern, 15s. ; and Great Northern, £l. The Foreign and Colonial lines have been dull. Paris and Lyons declined 55., and Lombardo-Venetian ss. East Indian improved 55., and Grand Trunk of Canada 10s. Joint Stock Bank Shares have been in very limited request, and prices are unaltered. BRITISH FUNDS THIS DAY AT ONE O'CLOCK 3per Cent. R e d uce d Annuities 971 I- pr Cent.

ISUICIDE AT BLACKFRIARS-BRIDGE.----Early yes el:claY morning an elderly woman, supposed to have been 4itoxicated, precipitated himself rom the Surrey aide of Blackfriars-bridge. Assistance was immediately procured, but the unfortunate woman could not be found until two or three hours afterwards. She was immediately conveyed to the workhouse in a shell, life being quite extinct. She Was dressed i n a cotton gown, silk mantle, straw bonnet, and low shoes. SUICIDE IN A VAPOUR BATH.—Yesterday after -7400/1 Mr. Sergeant Payne held an inquest in the school .looln of Cornhill ward, St. M ar y A xe, on t h e b ody of Miss Runyon, aged 42, who was fou n d d ea d i n one of the baths o f the estab lishment, in St. Mary A xe , on F r id ay last, u n d er somewhat peculiar circumstances. From the evidence of the attendants it appeared that there was nothing strange or excitable in the .manner of the de ceased when she applied for the bath. She remained in it an hour and a half, when deceased was found lying hi the bath dead. They immediately sent for Medical assistance, and it was discovered that she had a bottle containing sulphuric acid being found taken poison, in the room. Mr. Woodman, a schoolmaster, residing in Devonshire-s Bish quare, opsgate-street, said that deceased was his wife's sister, that she was of a very strange and ob stinate temper, and that her brother also committed suicide. She had lived with witness for the last 19 years, and it was Only on Tuesday last that he had brought her back home after a month's absence in the country. She had been leissino. since 12 o'clock on Friday last. The jury returned as their verdict that deceased destroyed herself while tahouring under temporary insanity.

A POLICEMAN CHARGED WITH DEFRAUDING THE AU THORITIES. — Police-constable Gymer, 61 F, the man who about a year ago suffered a murderous assault at the hands of a young woman named Donovan, who stabbed him several times with a table knife, was this morning placed before Mr. Jardine, on remand, charged with ob taining money from the authorities of Scotland-yard by means of false and fraudulent representations. It is necessary to explain that in the case of a ticket-of leave man committing any infraction of the condition of his licence, the circumstance is notified to the Home-office, the licence is revoked, and a warrant issued for the offender's apprehension and recommittal to serve the remainder of his original sentence The warrant is forwarded to Mr. Hall (the chief magistrate) at this court. The clerk notifies to the superintendent of police that a certain constable is required to attend at the court at a stated time to receive instruc tions. The constable attends accordingly and receives in structions from Mr. Hall, or, in his absence, from the sit ting magistrate, to go to the place where the convict is to be found and apprehend him. For this purpose he receives a warrant. He then takes a printed form called an " im prest," which he fills in with an estimate of the expenses of his journey, and submits it to the superintendent, or, in his absence, to an inspector, who countersigns. He also hands in a written report that he has been sent on this duty. The inspector keeps the report, and the constable takes the im prest to Scotland-yard to get the signature of a commis sioner. He next proceeds to the office of the receiver general of the metropolitan police, where he hands in the imprest and gets the money. From the evidence of Inspector Mitchell it appeared that the prisoner had for about 12 months been occasionally em ployed in this kind of duty. On the 18th ult. he presented to him a report and an imprest. The report set forth that he was instructed to go to Birmingham to apprehend a ticket-of-leave man. The estimate on the imprest was £l3. The prisoner said he had not got the warrant yet, but he wanted to get the money before the office in Scot land-yard was closed. He signed the imprest, and Gymer went away. Some days afterwards, seeing Gymer in the street, he asked him why he was not gone. He said that he had information that the man was in the infirmary. The next day he repeated the same excuse. On the 24th witness told him tluit if he did not go the next day he must bring the money in. He said lie would. As he did not do so, he sent for him on the 26th, which was Sunday, and asked him why he had not brought in the money. He said he had paid it in to Mr. Golding, at the receiver's office; adding, " I did not know you meant I should pay it here." Mitchell said if it was paid to Mr. Golding th.lt would do ; he only wanted to leave no responsibility on his own shoulders. Prisoner also stated that Mr. Golding tore up the imprest, which he said was signed by the commissioner. During the week witness ascertained that the money had not been paid to Mr. Golding. He then sent for Gymer, who admitted that he had not paid it, but had it in his pocket. Witness desired him to put it down on the table,. on which he drew £l2 from his purse, and said he must go home for another £l. Witness allowed him to do so, and he went and fetched it. Witness took it, and then said he should report the prisoner. Gymer begged he would not do so, as it would lead to his dismissal. He said, "Do for give me, Mr. Mitchell. I will tell you all about it. I had a hole in my pocket and lost my purse, containing £9. Mitchell said he could not overlook it, and afterwards he discovered that the prisoner had not received authority to go to Birmingham to apprehend any convict. In answer to questions from Mr. Lewis, who appeared for Gymer, Mitchell said he took the money as a discharge of the £l3, but did not then know that there was anything wrong beyond the falsehood that he had paid Mr. Golding. Would not have let him go without giving up the money. Mr. Lewis contended that this amounted to a condona tion, or at least to treating the case as a monetary transac tion. Mr. Jardine said the jury must decide what was the motive. There was quite enough for a jury to consider. He should fully commit the prisoner for trial. The witnesses were then bound over in the sum of £4O to appear at the Central Criminal Court, and give evidence against the prisoner. Mr. Lewis applied for the prisoner to be admitted to bail Mr. Jardine said he had no objectien to that course, bui he should require good and substantial securities. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. IMPORTANT TO DINING -ROOM KEEPERS.—John Richardson, a cab-driver, badge 10,676, was summoned under the following circumstances for causing an obstruc tion in Mill-street, Conduit-street:— From the evidence of Charles Graminson, hackney-car riage attendant, it appeared that at one o'clock in the day he was in Mill-street, when he saw the defendant with his cab and three others outside a coffeehouse, the owners being inside taking their dinner. The defendant was one of them, and as they had caused an Obstruction he had summoned them. They were inside 15 minutes. Summonses were taken out against three others, but as they were all of a similar nature, one ruled the other. Mr. Lewis, jun., who appeared for the defence, said the facts were simply these. The cabmen were in the habit of dining at Mr. Manton's dining rooms, in Mill-street, leaving their cabs outside in the care of a person. The defendant and another went in, and just as they were about to come out two others drove up, placing their cabs behind the Ant two, and that was what the carriage attendant called an obstruction. No one came forward to complain of it ; none of the neighbours were in attendance. It was not to be supposed cabmen could be out all day without refreshment, and the men stopped no longer than was necessary. The men had been accustomed to do the same thing for some time without any complaint. Mr. Beadon said the waterman had acted in accordance with the statute. Mr. Lewis said he did not mean to contend that he had a right to stop there, but there was no obstruction, as there were seldom more than two there at onejtime. Mr. Manton, who was a respectable tradesman, was in court, and would for the future abide by any regulation his worship would lay down for his guidance. The carriage attendant said he should not have sum moned them only one of them was insulting to him. Mr. Beadon said then, because one insulted him ho sum moned them all. Mr. Lewis said no doubt h e f e lt hi s di g nity hurt _ _ _ _ _ Mr. Beadon said he quite agreed that - the men should he allowed to have their meals, and no one wished to prevent them. As long as there were only two cabs in front of Mr. Manton's house no complaint would be made, but when four got in rank, and thus got in front of the neighbours' houses, that must certainly be considered an obstruction which could not be allowed. He should dismiss all the summonses in the present instance. The decision gave considerable satisfaction. THAMES. A vEn,v SLIGHT BLEMISH.--A very large elderly woman, of dissipated appearance, who gave the name of Ann Brown, was brought before Mr. Selfe, charged with stealing a pint pot. _ John Bate, barman at the Blue Anchor public-house, in Ratcliff-highway, said that last night the prisoner came into the house and had two half-pints of beer, which were served to her in two pint pots. He saw her putting the last pint pot under her apron, and this aroused his suspi cions, and caused him to watch her. He saw her leave the house with the pint pot, when he followed her and took it from her. The prisoner, in her defence, said she had drunk seven half-pints of gin, besides smithy half-pints of porter, and became so thirsty that she was almost choked. Mr. Selfe—l wonder you were not quite choked ; I do indeed. The prisoner—Well, sir, I was so thirsty. Mr. Selfe—A drunkard is always thirsty. The prisoner —So I took the pint pot to procure some water, which I knew I could not get in a public house, but I intended to bring it back again. Mr. Selfe—Does any one know the prisoner ? Francis Kelly, a police-constable, No. 130 11, said the prisoner had given a fictitious name. Her real name was ..... Hicks, and she was the wife of a farrier, a most respectable man, living in New Martin-street, Rosemary-lane. Tho Woman was very fond of drink. The prisoner —There is not a blemish on my character. Mr. Selfe—What do you call excessive drinking ? The prisoner —That is a very slight blemish. Mr. Selfe—l think it is a very great blemish. You ought to be ashamed of yourself. Go about your business and keep sober. There is some doubt whether you intended to steal the pot, and you are discharged. THE LATE SACRILEGE AT STRATFORD.—At the Ilford petty sessions on Saturday James List and William Saville were brought up on remand on the charge of break ing into a vault at St John's Church, Stratford, and steal ing a copper coffin. The prisoner List made the following confession :—I was employed by Saville, and was engaged by him at the church, in July, 1855. On one Saturday morning I was employed digging a grave in the church yard, when Saville said, " Jemmy, what do you say to have old Dr. Taylor's coffin taken out I?" I said " Oh, no." He replied, " Never mind, let us have it out." We then went to the Coach and Horses public-house, and we returned. He brought a chisel, hammer, and other articles with him. Saville and I then went down into a vault under the church. We broke open the brickwork of the vault in which D.r Taylor was buried. The coffin lid was taken off, and the coffin was tilted and taken into the adjoining vault. We removed the copper coffln, which was broken up into pieces. The metal was left in the vault. About a week afterwards Saville said, " Jemniy, come and let us have the out." He meant the brother of Dr. Taylor. We then broke up the leaden coffin, and left it until the Mon day, when Saville fetched a man with a barrow and some bags to the church, and the metalwas t a k en t o a h ouse near the Green Man, in East-street, where it was sold to a rag man. 'I do not know his name, but I should know the man if I were to see him. I bricked up' the vault afterwards, and Saville was drunk under the church. (Saville at this part of the proceedings laughed.) I received 10s. 6d. from aville for my trouble. Saville made the arrangements respecting the sale of the metal; and I do not know what Saville received. List was then subjected to a long cross examination from Mr. Rawlings, the solicitor, but his tes timony was not in an y way, shaken. Mr. Holing re quested that the prisoners might be kept apart, and he also asked permission for the conveyance of the man List to Stratford, with the view of identifying the man who pur chased the stolen metal. The proceedings were then ad journed fora week, all all all all all all all _,i-.r,~, -.- ji4P - ROCKET Thirty-five ran. SWEEPSTAKES OF 20 SOVS. Y.C. Speaker Doubloon . Four ran. LATEST BETTING.

TEMPLE UNITY ROWING CLUB.—PAIR•OARED RACE FOR A PAIR OF SILVER GARB.—The pair-oared race among the members of this club came off yesterday after noon over the course between Battersea and Wandsworth meadows. The results were as follows : Blue.—W. Bowles and W. W00d... 1 Pink.—J. Norton and J. Dyer White.—R. Sanders and G. Stanway 3 Red.—R. Cracknell and G. Hurst. The race between Blue and Pink was very good through out, but the winners, who were the favourites, led after two or three strokes, and maintained it throughout, closely pressed by Pink, who were only beaten by four lengths. The others were a long way behind, and Red did not finish the distance. SCULLERS' RACE Fon £lo.—One of the most spirited scullers' races ever witnessed was rowed yesterday after noon, for the above amount, £.5 a side, 'between Daniel f G ri i a ll r a s m A a g nd ua t l i i c enCrlyubil. a s F t in; c g d s . , p two o c m k e h m a b v rs n o g bf choseneen l3la c k umpire for Hastings, Ben Oxlade for Gillam, and Edward - May referee, the men got to their stations, Hastings winning the toss. In getting away Gillam had a slight lead, but it was very trifling and momentary, and then his opponent became scull and scull, and off the pier had drawn his stern-post level with Gillam's thwart. The pace was exceedingly good, but Hastings continued to draw his boat gradually away, and at the London Rowing Club Boat-house had increased his lead to about four lengths, and held it for nearly half a mile. Hastings R OW rowed out of his course, and Gillam gradually stole upon his opponent, at the Craven was level again, and at th Crab Tree was about half a boat a-h ea d . A fine ding e - dong race followed for about a hundred yards, when Gill m drew away from his opponent, and after a most exciUng race went in the winner by three-quarters of a length. 'I he distance was front Putney to HarameiSmith. The mach was rowed iil Ralph's Vedette andsßlia Bonny, TVEYIIILL GREAT FAIR. Yesf erday (.11')nday) this celebrated fair com menced. It is one of the largest in this country, and to which the highest importance is attached by hop growers and factors, dairy and cheese farmers, agriculturists and stock breeders, and many other classes whose interests are involved in this great mart; immense droves of stock and sheep are brought here for sale, and the largest bulk of hops that can be brought together are invariably pitched under canvass for competition, besides which a large business in cheese and bacon is also transacted. The fair lasts eight days; the first day is for the sale of sheep, the two following are appropriated for stock and horses, and afterwards the great hop and cheese fair commences. The attendance yesterday was large, but chiefly restricted to sheep dealers and flock masters. The hill side was covered with sheep and the pens extended over a large scope of land. There were upwards of 200,000 head of sheep folded. Dorsetshire contributed very larp;ely. S riv2r-et,ltire, and Hants produced a good supply. There were some pens of choice sheep from Leicestershire ; Sussex brought down some well bred South-down ewes, and many other sheep coun ties contributed. The condition of the sheep was in general healthy and free from foot-rot; there was not a brisk sale. The short turnip crops tend to retard any very active competition for sheep, but , the late exceedingly favourable weather has con duced very largely to the growth of rape and coleseed, which form a good substitute for turnips and a provision for autumn sheep keep, conse quently there was a fair demand at prices hereunder quoted :---Ewes, Dorsets, 445. to 48s. a head ; ditto couples (e we an d l amb of this autumn), 50s. to 555.; west country Downs, 365. to 38s. a head ; half-breds, 335. to 365. ; Leicesters, 455. to 495. ; Southdowns, 335. to 375., and aged ewes, 265. to 30s. a head ; vethers, prime bred sheep, fat, 50s. to 60s. a head ; useful wethers for folding, 425. to 445. ; tegs, 30s. ; well bred wether lambs, 18s. to 235. • ditto ewe lambs, 17s. t o 22 5 . ; and pens of choice lambs 225. to 295. a head; long -wool stc c k s h eep sold lower than at last fair. There was a good show of rams for sale and letting for the next season, and those from eminent s h ee p b reeders went off at high figures. Dorset tups made sto 8 guineas ; Leices ter ditto 6 to 10 guineas ; Southdown ditto, 4 to 9 guineas; shearlings varied in price from 3to 6 guineas ; some rains of celebrated breeds made as high as 15 to 20 guineas; the sheep pens were nearly sold out.

Payne, he Coroner, held an inquest at the White Hart Tavern, Giltspur-street, City, concerning the death of Maria Drew, aged 28, who committed suicide undr the following circumstances : Eliza Drew said that she lived in the service of Mr. Jeffreys, dentist, of the same street. De ceased also lived in the same house as cook, and was her sister. She was .to have been married to a man named Biggs, an assistant to a packing-case maker, but he had decei ve d h er. She tod her that he had taken improper ad vantage of her. He was to have called to see her on . Thursday as they were to have been married the next day. She was some months enciente by him. On the Friday night she made attempts twice to throw herself out of window, but she prevented her by pulling her back. At six o'clock in the morning she went into the kitchen and found that she had drowned herself in the water cistern. She was got out, and everything done to restore life, but she was past recovery. Biggs gave her steel filings on three occasions for an improper purpose, which used to make her ill and sick. She believed the man had gone to work at Woolwich, but she did not know in what part. Mr. Jeffreys said that he had heard that the man had got a woman and two children living in the country. He used to lodge in the same house as that in which the inquest was held, and he had since heard was accepted as deceased's suitor. David Williams said that he resided in New eut, and was on intimate terms with the deceased and her sister, and the deceased had told him that she had been seduced by the man, who had pro cured steel filings for her and had given her o ne dose. She al so t o ld hi m th at whilst she was stand ing at the window on the second floor he suddenly seized her round the waist and effected her ruin. John Brown, the potman, said that the man Biggs used to lodge in that house, but he had not seen him since Thursday last. He used to work in the city, and he believed in Watling-street. He had seen the deceased and the man walk out together. Mr. Jeffreys said if he had known that deceased was keeping company with Biggs he should have prevented it until he had time to inquire into his respectability. The learned Coroner havinc , summed up, the jury decided upon adjourning the case. THIS DAYS MARKETS. HAY MARKETS.
