tude which it is desirable they should assume in the contest now raging near them. It is worthy of perusal, even though the reader may not coincide with the writer's German sympathies, and evident expectation that we shall eventually be called upon to quit our' neutrality ,for the sake of Prusssia. The story of " Pommeroy Abbey," which last month ended abruptly with the fratricide, brings some new actors upon the scene. We are introduced to the fourth brother Leolin, who is now lord of Pommeroy, as the second brother Rupert quitted the country after his crime, and the third one, George, died soon after inheriting the estates. He marries a fair lady, the daughter of a proud countess, and brings her home to the abbey, when they are dismayed by the appearance of a ' lady and chile claiming to be the wife and son of George Pommeroy. Those who have perused the former parts will readily unravel the complications of the plot. Sir Nathaniel places in the list of his note-worthies, Christina of Sweden, who is well deserving of a place there since, according to Voltaire, she alone, in her epoch, " sustained the honour of the throne, which was either abandoned, tarnished, or unknown in the other States of Europe." The sket c h h ere g i ven o f th e career o f thii remarkable woman, who, in Milton's opinion, was " fit to govern not only Sweden, but the world," is well worthy of perusal. A gloomy and dismal story with the title of " The Curse of Tre cobben" will suit the admirers of Mrs. Radcliffe. Mr. Pickles is as usual most amusing in his cata logue of grievances, but there is a good deal of truth in his complaints. His first attack is upon the system of hiding wills and testaments, which many persons resort to, giving rise occasionally to much family distress and litigation by their magpie propensities. "Gleanings from an old English Chronicle" are entertaining. They are taken from an ancient work published last year by the Master of the Rolls, in his new series of " Historical Docu ments." W. C. Kent contributes a charming lyric on " London Pride," and "Evalla" and "Hans Ernest Mitterkamp" are continued with spirit. A paper on the Po and its Tributaries concludes the number. The United Service Magazine. Two papers on " Military Reform and Mili tary Efficiency," and on " Naval Discipline," are well worthy the attention of those in autho rity, and, indeed, of all who have the welfare and efficiency of the rival services at heart. Reform has long been called for in both these de partments, and itseems hard that with such constant demands on the public purse, and so much talk about the necessity of a powerful fleet and efficient army, improvement should advance so very slowly and so little satisfactory return be made for the lavish expenditure of the national money. " The United Service Magazine" has long boldly set forth the drawbacks and deficiencies of both services, the evils of patronage, the dangers of placing inefficient men at the head of important departments, and all the long catalogue of grievances which, it is to be feared, have been repeated and discussed so often as to wear off their effect. But all valuable reforms and national improvements have to be long waited and watched for ; and those deserve the greater credit who perseveringly reiterate the truth with consistency and moderation. The continuation of the narrative of the Campaign of 1848 is Lombardy is not without interest at the present time. By a curious coincidence the instalment of this month is headed, "Forcing of the line of the Mincio—lnva sion of the Italian Tyrol." The different position of the Austrians at that time is striking. The re marks on the Re-organisation of the Indian Army are proceeded with, and recommend an immediate action on the information already possessed by the Government, without waiting for the further report from India. Several other subjects of importance are discussed, and the editor's Portfolio sums up the events of the month which affect the services. Great dissatisfaction is expressed at the change of Government, and especially at the re-instalment of " the very trio who sacrificed our army in the Crimea--Gla.dstone, Newcastle, and Herbert." The editor draws some consolation from the considera tion that seven wavering votes would convert the pitiful majority of 13 into a defeat, and that, there fore, the discordant assemblage of negatives, which do not make an affirmative, may speedily be dis persed. The usual amount of Naval and Military Intelligence, the • stations of tho army and navy, and the recent promotions and appointments, are fully given. • The Universal Review. This review continues to prove itself worthy of a place among the established serials. The very difficult and complicated question of the law of divorce forms the subject of the opening article. The serious evils which may be encouraged by a too great facility of;breaking the marriage bonds are strongly dwelt upon. The novels of Sir E. Bulwer Lytton are the topic of the succeeding paper, which professes only to criticise his latest production, but which takes into consideration his general style and powers. Though occasionally a little severe on the mannerisms of his style, the critic renders a fair share of praise to the skill and careful finish of the work. Lord John Russell's Life of Fox suggests a brief but able sketch of the career of the, great Whig statesman. The scientific reader will be attracted by a paper bearing the title of " Illogical Geology," which refutes many of the assertions of scientific professors, and enters into a succession of arguments which will be very interesting to students of this science. " Out of the Depths" is the title of a somewhat unsatisfac tory review of a very objectionable book. There are many other papers on varying subjects, but the best in the number is. that on" " Parties, Natural and Artificial," which gives a very sensibly written analysis of the existing state of political parties, and turns over a few leaves of Parliamentary history that some members of our present Admi nistration would rather have forgotton. Tales from Bentley. Part I. Thiers' History of the French Revolution. Parts I. and IL Bentley. Appearing in company with Bentley's Miscellany are two little serials that deserve notice. The most important of these is the new edition of Thiers' great work on the Revolution, which Mr. Bentley is issuing in sixpenny parts, to be published fort nightly. There are few readers of history who will not be able .to avail themselves of this opportu nity of becoming acquainted with this great work, doubly interesting as a French classic, and as the recital of one of the most vivid pages in a vivid history, by a native of the land. The engravings are good. The frontispiece of the first part gives• us a picture of the attack on the Bastille, and that of the second the likeness of Louis, Duke of Orleans, the Egalite of unenviable memory. - Following the example set by the conductors of Maga, the editor of Bentley's Miscellany has re solved to reprint the best of the stories,which ap peared in that magazine. The first part contains four tales whose names invite the lovers of the humorous to renew their acquaintance with them. Those who are partial to this style of literature will welcome the reproduction of the series. BALLOONS FOR IVARFA.RE. The subject of balloons for warfare is now no longer a mere suggestion, but is an actual reality, according to the latest continental intelligence. Mr. Henry Coxwell, aeronaut, writes as follows : We gather from recent news that a French aeronaut made a successful ascent at Castelnedolo to observe the Austrians, and that 40 women are busily engaged at Paris in making a new balloon for the French army. " Ever since the Russian war, and indeed during that calamity, I have laboured single-handed in endeavouring to provoke the attention of our Go vernment, our scientific men, and the English press to the importance of aerial observatories. " As the idea just begins to engage public notice at the present moment, it may not be uninteresting to simply correct one or two erroneous notions as to the modus operandi with war balloons. In the Aerostatic Magazine for this year I devote a chapter to ' Balloons for Reconnoitring,' but as extracts may be too lengthy I will briefly observe that bal loons may be used with long wire ropes attached (kite fashion ) 'without being let go, which might endanger their falling into an enemy's camp. 2. There is no real necessity that the balloon should be within close range of large or small shot, as an angle of elevation proportioned to the distance would afford the required information. 3. Hydrogen gas, gene rated by the decomposition of water, would enable balloons to be inflated in whatever locality desir able. Balloons may also be made the vehicles of lay ing a temporary electric wire or thread in any direc tion required. A large revolving drum beneath the car might contain many miles of thin wire, and pay it out as desired.. Certain indications would be required to mark its course, but this could be easily managed. "In this way a net of electrical communication might be established. Like spiders the balloon could spin away in various directions, and if ono part of the web gave way the main lines might be depended upon to convey intelligence." NIGHT SIGNALS FOR SEAMEN.—An important benefit to mariners has been conferred by the invention of a signal light, two only of which are needful to enable ships at sea to communicate by night easier than by day, u to three miles. The invention is that of a naval medical officer, who has for eleven years laboured to b ene fit seamen by lights. The contrivance is very simple —a circular lens and two cylinders (like tumblers without bottoms), red an d green ; once hoisted up the lamps are never moved till the signal is complete, all changes being made free th e deck, MOIV.EI MARKET AND CITY NEWS. CITY, Two o'CLocK. The advices received from the manufacturing disfricts are generally of a satisfactory character. At Manchester during the past week there has been a moderate inquiry for heavy goods; articles suit able to the Indian markets have also been in fair demand, and priceashow a slight improvement. At Leeds the attendance of buyers in the various I st cloth halls has been above the average, and a satis factory amount of business has been done, chiefly in heavy and medium fabrics, for the autumn and winter. Wools have been at full rates. Worsted yarns at Bradford have been in moderate request, at firm prices, and piece goods have been rather largely dealt in both for the home trade and for the United States. The hosiery trade of Leicester con tinues active; and several branches, particularly st, the worsted department, have been more animated than usual at this season of the year. At Notting- 81 hair there has been little improvement to record in St ' the lace market. At Birmingham the general trades st of the town and neighbourhood have undergone si little alteration ; prices, however, continue steady. S 1 At Wolverhampton and Sheffield there has been st no material alteration in the state of the hen trade, gt business in most departments being exceedingly St dull. st , st, Advices from New York report continual firm ness in the rate of exchange upon England, and in to consequence of the efflux of gold, the specie in the st city banks had been reduced to £4,640,000. 1 The arrivals of specie this morning include 2 £51,644 from the Brazils, by the Tyne, £7,000 by the Alhambra from Lisbon, and £100,279 by the st( City of Washington from New York. st The increased activity occasioned in discount st, circles by the commercial engagements due to-day, the 4th of the month, and the numerous payments Si which have been completed during the last few ' si days, in connexion with railway calls, have im- sl parted more firmness to the rates of accommodation; but the alteration, after all, is merely fractional, 1 and is likely to be of a temporary character. Up to the present time commercial as well as joint- s stock enterprise is too much restricted to promise si an immediate • and important extension of the de- gl mand for money, and, under these circumstances, a permanent reaction in the tendency of the market is scarcely anticipated. In the Market for Public Securities to-day a s moderate amount of business has been transacted, S and prices have advanced nearly 1 per cent. This improvement is attributable to the favourable advices from the Paris Bourse, which have induced s a few purchases. Speculation, however, is dull, as usual, just before settling day. Consols have been 931 t, and they are now 931 1. The New Threes have improved to 931 94 ; the Reduced to 931 94 ; and India Loan Scrip to 941 1. Exchequer Bills are steady, at 235. to 245. prem; A very limited business has been transacted in the market for Foreign Securities, but an improve ment has taken place. Turkish 6 per Cents. have been 76!-, to 77.1 and 76 to 78 ; the New, 63 to 64, being now 62 to 64 ; Spanish 3 per Cents. were 411 ; ditto Certificates 4 ; Austrian 5 per Cents. gt t 47 to 48 ; Mexican 18 to 181 ; and Brazilian 41 per st Cents. 92. . st A moderate degree of activity has prevailed in the Railway Share Market, "rid prices have fully sympathised with the improvement in Consols. Edinburgh, Perth, and Dundee, North-Eastern (Berwick), and South-Eastern, have improved ss. Eastern Counties, Great Northern, Great Western, and Midland, 10s. ; and South-Western, £1; North- Western have declined about 10s., and Brighton, £l. The Foreign lines are inactive but prices are firm. Lombardo-Venetian old shares are 71, 71-, and the new 7 to 7-1-. In the Colonial Market prices are also a shade firmer. East Indian have improved to 1021 ; Grand Trunk of Canada to 344- 35 ; and Great Western of Canada to 15 ; Great Indian Peninsula are steady g at 981 99. Joint-Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares con- g tinue to support previous values. Bank of Lon- g don and Union of London are at former quotations; Canada Land improved to 113 ; Red Sea Telegraph to 101 lot ; and Royal Mail Steam, 52. BRITISH FUNDS THIS DAY AT ONE O'CLOCK 3 pa.

It had been doing well up to the occurrence of the lament able accident in January last, when the losses in curred in the way of compensating the sufferers, above fifty in number, and in litigating certain sl cases of extravagant demand, swallo wed u p its si available resources, and popular philosophy became sl insolvent. In the person of the Polytechnic, science a and reasonable amusement for the people are de clared bankrupt, and that without a dividend. A property which cost £35,000 and which is still thought worth £20,000 for the 'purpose of a Poly- si technic may be had for less than half the latter sum; si and yet there are no bidders. The directors of the El old society, who are best acquainted with its capa- si bilities and. prospects in a commercial point of view, Si subscribe about £l,OOO in new shares, with a view gl to create a new company, and two liberal gentlemen in the City offer another £l,OOO ; and at this total !, at present the enterprise stands, In another week it will be too late to save from sacrifice and ruin I piecemeal the most,deservedly popular, useful, and EA morally unobjectionable place of public amusement st in this metropolis. Shall it be said of London that a , its vanity or profligacy can better support a thou- st sand saloons than one Polytechnic ?—that vice and St folly prosper where science and morel:Ay fail? Sj Where are the christian public of London? They can subscribe for parks, play-grounds, drinking- L fountains, and other out-of-door summer recreations st, for the people, to draw them away from the un wholesome excitement of the gin-palace, beer-shop, or casino ; but some thought should be given for in-door winter entertainments. Shall the failure of the Polytechnic discourage every similar effort to elevate the moral taste and intellectual tone of _ the popular mind ? A grave responsibility rests somewhere, and that of the most gratuitous charac ter, as we are credibly informed that £lO,OOO would set the good old barque afloat again, with the cer tainty, under right direction, of a return of at least five per cent. upon the reasonable amount of capital required to work the concern, when relieved of its present incumbrances.—Builder. A letter from Naples, of the 26th June, says : " Great anxiety is expressed here to ascertain the nature of the instructions of which Baron Brenier, the French Minister, is the bearer, but the Baron since his arrival had not shown any disposition to gratify the public curiosity ; on the contrary, he has maintained the strictest reserve. The French Minister had his second reception yester day, and nobody doubts that he has given his Majesty most excellent advice. M. de Salmour, the Sardinian Plenipotentiary, is about, it is said, to quit Naples, not very well satisfied with the result of his mission. He was received with all ordinary diplomatic forms, but the Government took care to avoid all conversation on political mat ters. His object was to obtain from the Neapo litan Government a military demonstration in the direction of the Adige, and he gave the King to understand that by so doing he would secure for himself at the conclusion of the war the posses sion of certain provinces which would give him a considerable extent of territory on the coast of the Adriatic. The Pope should be inde mn ifi e d by other possessions. The King is said to be well disposed to grant the reforms demanded, but he is not sufficiently firm, and it is feared that the uncertainty which prevails may produce serious embarrassment. Gen. Jschitella has been definitively named Major-General of the Army, which is regarded as a good omen. The Duke de Devina, one of the wealthiest proprietors in the country, and son-in law of Prince Satriano, has been appointed to present the compliments of the King of Naples to the King of Sardinia. There has been a popular demonstra tion made at Messina to the French Admiral on his passage to yenicp,,, `•-~ - !'~~~t DIP ....ctv THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, JULY 4, 1851, SNARE MARKET.-( THIS ORDINARY SHA MS A: ND STO flare!

The country markets held on Saturday were but mode rately supplied with wheat; nevertheless, all kinds moved off slowly, and in some instances prices had a drooping tendency. Most, descriptions of spring corn were dull in sale, and the transactions in flour were limited. Throughout the Continent wheat has met a dull inquiry ; nevertheless, very little change has taken place in prices. Spring corn and flour have ruled steady. In the United States scarcely any business is doing either in wheat or flour for export purposes. Up to our market last week the arrivals of English pro duce were limited. The imports from abroad were liberal, viz., 33,350 qrs. of wheat, 20,020 barley, oats 20,365, beans 551, peas 1,131, linseed 9,690, rapeseed 16,555, sundry seeds 970, and 4,844 sacks of flour. From Essex, Kent, &c., the arrivals of wheat fresh up to day, coastwise and by land carriage, were on a moderate scale, and the show of samples was by no means large. Owing to some damage having been sustained by the grow ing crops, factors commenced by asking ls. to 2s. per qr. more money for English wheats ; but the demand for all kinds ruled very inactive, and sales took place at prices about equal to Monday last. We had a large quantity of foreign wheat on offer. Even the finest qualities met a dull inquiry, but no actual change took place in the quotations. There was very little inquiry for floating cargoes of grain. Grinding barley sold at late quotations, but malting and distilling sorts were very dull on former terms. The malt trade was in a most inactive state at last week's prices. Very few home-grown oats were on offer. The oat trade was less active ; nevertheless, prices were fairly supported. Both beans and peas were very dull, at barely stationary prices. We had a slow sale for flour, at last Monday's currency. CURRENCY PER IMPERIAL MEASURE.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(TIIIS DAY.) HOUSE OF LORDS, Peers present—(The Lord Chancellor, Lord Brougham, Lord Cranworth, Lord Wensleydale, and other Peers.) THIRD APPEAL.-SCOT'S MINES COMPANY AND ANOTHER V. LEA.DHILLS MINING COMPANY The Lord Chancellor reversed the decision of the Court below in this case, and the appeal was dismissed' with costs. VICE-CHANCELLORS' COURTS (Before the Lords Justices.) THOMPSON V. WHITELOCK-TWO APPEALS FOR JUDGMENT, This is an administration suit under the holograph will of the late Mr. Myles Whitelock, merchant, St. Paul's churchyard, City. The testator gave to each of his three brothers and six sisters £5OO, or their legal representatives, :to be paid two years after his death ; two nephews £5OO, and two other nephews £3OO each ; amounting together to £6,400. He then gave to his father and mother an annuity of £lOO. He then gave the residue to .his wife, Sarah, except £4,100 which she was only to have the use of during her life. Vice-Chancellor Sir John Stuart by his decree declared that, according to the true construction of the will, the widow was entitled to the whole residue of the testator's estate, except the legacies mentioned in the will, amounting to £4,100 only. Double legacies were claimed, amounting to £6,500, but not allowed. Legatees dying in the life time of the testator, or before her death, their legacies lapsed and fell into the residue. Lord Justice Knight Bruce and Lord Justice Turner considered that it was not necessary to adopt any forced construction to this will, or to substitute any other words for those which the testator had used, and say that £4,100 was £6,500; that it was better to adhere to the words of the will, and, on the authority of the case Melish against Melish, there lordships were satisfied that the conclusion the Vice-Chancellor had come to was light. Their lordships affirmed the decision of the Vice-Chan cellor, and dismissed the appeal without costs. SHERIFFS' COURT. (Before M. Kerr.) EHRENDERGER V. LYONS--FEAST DAYS WITH THE JEWS This was an action to recover 30s. for ono week's wages in lieu of notice. Plaintiff is a journeyman in the employ ment of defendant, a master tailor. Plaintiff said that he had been engaged by defendant ten months ago, and he agreed to work from Sunday to Friday. Plaintiff was absent on one particular Sunday the whole day, and upon his going on Monday morning defen dant summarily dismissed him. _ _ Mr. Buchanan, for defendant, cross-examined plaintiff, who said he absented himself on the Sunday to attend the circumcision of his child. Defendant—That is over by 10 o'clock in the morning, and plaintiff was smoking and drinldng. His Honour—lt ia well known that when a male child is born in Israel there is great rejoicing ; it is a feast day with the Jews, and if defendant knew of this circumcision, unless there was a prohibition, I think it is such a custo mary holiday that defendant should not have dismissed plaintiff. Mr. Buchanan—My client knew nothing of it. Defendant said that it was well known that a child had been born, and he had asked Mrs. Lyons if she would be godmother, and defendant godfather. Mrs. Lyons said she would be very glad, but Mr. Lyons would not take the trouble. Mr. Buchanan—Defendant has a very large establish ment, and employs forty people, and if they absent them selves on Sunday he only gets four days work out of them. Defendant said he did not give plaintiff permission to absent himself, and he was discharged for doing so. His Honour—ln law defendant is entitled to a verdict, but I think it is scandalous to discharge a man without notice for absenting himself to perform a particular cere money pertaining to his religion. LOAN SOCIETIES MUST SUE BY ALL TILE PARTNERS.- INOLES V. MADDOCK. This was a summons on a promissory note payable to Ingles, West, and another. The summons was taken out in the name of Ingle. Before seeing the note his Honour said that the plaintiff must be nonsuited, as the summons should be taken out in the names of the parties on the note. Mr. West said, that Ingle was present and defendant had signed the note. His Honour—Thatedoes not matter. Mr. West—But defendant owes plain tifi: the money. His Honour—No, he does not. He, owes it to Ingle, West, and another, and he must be nonsuited. Mr. West—Well, but what afr, I to do ? Will your Honour advise me ? His Honour—l sit here to give judgment and not advice. Mr. Buchanan gives advice,. lam not going to take away his business. Nonsuited. CRI3IINAL COURT. -(THIS DAY.) OLD COURT. The July session of the Central Criminal Court com menced this morning before the Lord Mayor, the Re corder, Aldermen Moon, Salomons, Mechi, the Sheriffs, and the other civic authorities. The calendar contains names of 55 persons for trial. Two, viz., Thomas Smethurst and William Abraham Moore, are charged with murder, eight with burglary, nine with uttering counterfeit coin, three with forgery, three with manslaughter, five with feloniously wounding, and the remainder with offences of a minor description. The Recorder, in charging the grand jury, said he was very glad to say their duties would be very light in conse quence of the short interval that had elapsed since the last session. The cases in the calendar were few, and none of them presented any difficulty. There was a charge of murder against a person named Moore, but in this there was little doubt but that the blow which pro duced the death of the unfortunate woman was struck by the prisoner. No person was present when the wound was inflicted, so it would be for the prisoner to show that anything occurred which would reduce the crime from that of murder. There was a charge against a foreign coloured seaman, named John Burdoe, for stabbing a police man ; and the circumstances connected with the case were somewhat peculiar. It appears that the prisoner had been purchased by the captain of his ship—who it was grati fying to find was not an Englishman—as a slave, and he had made two or three voyages to and from this country, without knowing that he had acquired thereby his freedom. On the last occasion when the ship left London, he was too ill to proceed, and was left behind, in charge of some per son, until another ship belonging to the same owner ar rived, when he was to be again shipped. During this period he appeared to have learned that he had acquired his freedom, and for some cause or other which would more clearly appear as the trial proceeded, he bar ricaded himself in his room and the aid of the police was called. In consequence of what they were told they pro ceeded to his apartment with a view of taking him into custody. The prisoner, who was unacquainted with the English language, naturally thinking the police were en deavouring to recapture him as a slave, made his escape through the window on to the roof of the house, where he was followed by Oliver the policeman. The constable seized him, when Burdoe, who was armed with a knife, struck Oliver a blow which it was quite a marvel: did not instantly deprive him of life. There were certain circumstances connected Nith this case what would render it desirable to have it inquired into more fully than it could be before the grand jury, so all they would have to ascertain would be whether there was suffi cient evidence to justify them in returning a true bill against him. The effect of finding a true bill would not be to finally settle the case, but only to put it into a state to undergo a thorough and searching investigation in this court with a view to ascertain the causes that induced the police to interfere. There was nothing further to call for remark from him, but in the event of an unforeseen difficulty arising the Court would readily render the grand jury every assistance. The jury then retired to their room, and the trials pro ceeded. FORGERY. John Lockhart Morton, 32, merchant, was indicted for forging and uttering two bills of exchange for the respec tive sums of £5OO and £485 10s. with intent to defraud. The prisoner pleaded guilty. The Recorder postponed passing sentence till next ses sion. THE CASE OF DR. SMETHURST. The trial of Dr. Thomas Smethurst, who stands indicted for the wilful murder of Isabella Bankes, is fixed for Wed nesday. The Lord Chief-Justice of England, Sir Alex. Cockburn, will preside. METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET. The total imports of foreign stock into London last week were 7,755 head. In the corresponding week in 1858 we received 7,109 ; in 1857, 5,828 ; in 1856, 5,439 ; in 1855, 7,880; in 1854, 4,212; in 1853, 10,811; and in 1852, head. IMPORTS INTO LONDON LAST VP,R. From.

Fresh up to-day from our own grazing districts the arrivals of beasts were only moderate, both as to rumbor and quality. For all kinds—if we except the primest Scots and crosses—the demand ruled inactive. Compared with Monday last, however, no change took place in the quota tions. From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton shire about 1,300 short horns and crosses came to hand. The receipts from Norfolk, Suffolk, and Cambridgeshire were 1,100 Scots, short horns, crosses ; from other parts of England, 300 of various breeds ; from Scotland, 200 Scots and crosses ; and from Ireland, 30 oxen, &c. The show of sheep was again seasonably large, and in fair condition. On the whole, the mutton trade was in a 'sluggish state ; but, compared with Monday last, no change took place in prkes. The best old Downs sold at 4s 10d per 81bs. _ . _ - Lambs—the supply of which was good—moved off heavily, at barely late rates. About 1,200 sheep and lambs came to hand from the Isle of Wight. We were fairly supplied with calves, which met a dull inquiry, at late quotations. In pigs, next to nothing was doing, at previous cur rencies. 2. d. e, d. Primecrs-wool do. 4 2 4 4 Pme.

BOROUGH AND SPITALFIELDS. Very few old potatoes are now on sale here, and their quotati•ns are uncertain. New qualities are coming steadily to hand, in good condition, and there is a steady inquiry for them, at from £3 10s to £5 per ton. Foreign qualities are worth only from £2 10s to £3 lOs per ton. Last week's imports were 40 tons from Dunkirk, 218 baskets from Rot terdam, and 50 ditto from Antwerp. BOROUGH HOP. The bine is stillprogressing steadily, both in Sussex and Kent ; but the quantity of vermin is still large. For all kinds of hops, there is scarcely any demand, and prices are almost nominal. Duty £lBO,OOO. WOOL MARKET. There is a moderate, but by no means active, demand for most kind of English wool, at full quotations. In foreign and colonial qualities very little is doing, on former terms. Last week's imports were very large, viz., 2,427 bales from Sydney, 1,407 from Port Philip, 1,132 from Portland Bay, 1,390 from Launceston, 1,718 from New Zealand, 12 from Melbourne, 1,363 from Adelaide, 46 1 from Port Beaufort, 1,471 from Port Elizabeth, 989 from Algoa Bay, and 300 bags from Hambro'. SEEDS. Linseed has been in moderate request, and late rates have been fairly maintained. The imports from abroad continue large. Rapeseed moves off freely, at full prices.

Although the list of sport does not present a very formidable appearance, yet it will furnish racing enough to amuse the select number of spectators who assist at the July meeting. It has been an aounced that the proceedings will take place entirely on the other side of the ditch, where the prettiest and pleasantest course within the range of Newmarket Heath is situated. The card will contain no items of attraction in addV tion to the July and Chesterfield Stakes, but the interest centred in those events forms in itself a trial of strength to the gathering. Both races are likely to command pretty large fields. Buc 7 cancer won his engagement so easily at Stock bridge that it would be absurd either to ignore his pretensions or to depreciate his merit. Still in Lady Falconer and Baron Rothschild's good-look ing colt, the King of Diamonds, he will meet very dangerous antagonists, albeit I do not think they will be capable of making him strike his colours. Trovatore has shown much • ability, and to him and Seclusion I shall entrust the task of winning the Chesterfield Stakes. The minor events require no notice. The work of reform has already commenced at That doubtful ornament, the Duk e ' s Stand, has been demolished, and the road by the lands has been commenced. Who knows. that that in time we shall have to mention the build gof a. Stand, and that the Jockey Club is not indifferent to the requirements and the demandsof the public. Like Jordan, Carlisle is a long way to travel, and our Northern turfites will assist at it. The Grand Stand Handicap ought to be won by Shafto. Paul may win the Cumberland Plate.

THE WORCESTER CUP.—The Worcester Cup valued (but certainly under its value) at two hundred guineas, the vetyliberal gift of the Earl of Coventry, which is to be run for this meeting at Worcester, has just been finished at the manufactory of Mr. Hancock, of Bruton street. 'lt is among the many elegant pieces of sporting plate produced at that establishment, and will increase the reputation of thoso concerned in its productiOn. The cup is a large vase, supported by a strong foot or stem, on an ebony pedestal, ornamented with silver. On the side are female figures emblematical of victory. There is a relief representing a race on Worcester Course on one part of the bowl, and the short inscription, " Worcester Races, 1859," on another. The workmanship is in the Alhambra man ner. The cup is precisely what it assumes to be, an appro priate prize for a winning horse. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. -(THIS DAY.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. CHILD STEALINTI—HEARTLESS CASH—Sarah Taylor, a short female, attired in black, and who was accompanied to the court by a large crowd of persons, who at times loudly gave vent to their feelings, was charged by Mr. In spector Webb, of the C division, with stealing a child about nine months old, named William Edward Seadham, the son of a poor woman living at 52, Charles-street, Drury-lane, on the 30th of March last. The mother, who, at times, could scarcely give her evi-. dente from emotion, said that she was not married, but had lived with a person for several years, and in consequence of a quarrel with him she, on the morning of the of March 30, left her home, so that nothing fullier might take place, and it being very cold, and raining at the time, she went into a public-house to shelter herself and child, and after they had been there a short time the prisoner got into conversation with her, she having known her slightly before, and on leaving the house she said she would go and get her child some bread and butter, and when they got up to St. Giles church railings, asked her to let her take the child for a moment, and she did j thinking she was going into a house close by, and after waiting some time, and as she did not return, the thought then came across her mind that she had gone off with her child, which was the case ; and although she had tried every means to find her since—having given information to the police and had handbills printed—she had never seen her till that morning, when she saw her at the bottom of the Old Bailey, when, on accosting her, she said, " Oh, I was going to find you." She then gave her into custody. The prisoner said the woman lent the child for a week or two, and she had tried to find her. Prosecutrix said that was not likely, as the child was not weaned. She had gone about like a mad woman ever since. Goodinau, city constable, 345, said she had some boxes o matches on her when he took her into custody. Inspector Webb said, immediately on the occurrence handbills were printed, a subscription being got up for the purpose. There was a lad in court who had seen the pri soner almost daily with the child about Kingsland, Hoxton, and near the canal. He understood the prisoner sold flowers about the streets. The prisoner, who persisted that the child was left with her, but could not say the reason why, and who evidently was not telling the truth, was then remanded for a week. EXECUTION OF SAMUEL ADAMS FOR DiU.RDE.R. This morning Samuel Adams, aged 36, a shoemaker, underwent the extreme penalty of the law in front of New• gate for the murder of Martha Christina Page, in the parish of Hornsey. The deceased was sister to the convict's wife, who had separated from Ym on account of his intemperate habits, and on the sth of May, while she was proceeding to Abney Park Cemetery with a relative, he came up and demanded to know where his wife was, and on the deceased refusing 0 tell him, he drew a knife from his breast and stabbed her three times, from the injuries of which she died. Since the trial, which took place at the last Central Criminal Court Sessions, and sentence of death passed, the wretched man became sullen and morose, and although the Sheriffs, in naming the day of his execution, held out ne hope of mercy, he refused to listen to the ministrations of Mr. Davis, the Ordinary of Newgate. An application was made to the Secretary of State, who refused to inter fere, and said the law must take its course, and after that WWI communicated to the wretched man, by degrees he became less sullen and morose, and requested to have the ministration of Mr. Jukes, an Independent minis ter, which was granted, but that gentleman being out of town he requested the attendance of a Mr. Smith, of Philip. street, Hoxton, a City missionary, who attended him during the week, and to whose admonitions be ap peared to pay great attention, but declined those of the Rev. Mr. Davis. and On n at Satur dayfirst i t he wa a had feared an he n e t er might viey bodily harm, but by the judicious reasoning and presence a nd ea cr l im in e all h d e aw:tthemhpitst7dotchheedr pres ence roe f s M ig r a . ed We as ath te erh ex e p ad re , s t a h h e i g e o e v in ern eere er, se h i e Te b i.v ecam fer h h e ad w e a o e mm te it ua ted d , efirgeeel;y head mfiretteinlyg forgave justice of d ef p t a h rd e sentence he wife, and begged her forgiveness and pardon, which she readily accorded him, and, after an affectionate farewell,. they parted to meet no more. Yesterday (Sunday) Mr. Smith continued in attendance upon the wretched man, who refused to attend the service in the chapel of the gaol ; he was, however, visited by the Rev. Mr. Davis. He retired at an early hour, and slept soundly, but awoke at six this morning, and was soon after joined by Mr. Smith, who remained with him to the last, and he frequently admitted the justness of his, sentence, and joined in prayer for forgiveness. As early as five o'clock, the workmen completed the pro. parations for the fatal scene that was to be enacted, the scaffold being brought out and placed in front of the gaol; and from this time crowds gradually assembled, until, at the fatal hour, many thousands were present. The crowd was not so numerous, but more orderly than usual, although some of them were of the worst description. _ _ _ At half-past seven the sheriffs, Alderman Hale and Mr. Deputy Condor, and Mr. Under-sheriff Surr, arrived, at the gaol, and at a quarter to eight they proceeded to the condemned convict's cell. The wretched man was standing up in a subdued, calm, resigned state, he had previously requested of Mr. Davis, the Ordi nary, that no communication should be made to him, he merely whispered to Mr. Smith, and then went on his knees, covering his face with his hands, and. for some time appeared ' to be engaged in earnest prayer. He rose more calmly, and shook hands with the chaplain, Mr. Weather head, the governor, and surgeon, thanking them for their kindness, he then turned to his spiritual adviser, Mr. Smith, and, shaking hands with him , nder begged him to convey last re membrance and forgiveness to his wife. Mr. u Sheriff Surr asked him, if he wished to m ake intro communication.
