HONEY MARKET AND CITY NEWS. CITY, Two o'CLocK. The accounts from most of the manufacturing districts are of a satisfactory character, although business has in a great measure been interfered 'with by the Whitsuntide holidays. The woollen trade of Leeds has been moderately active, and prices are exceedingly firm, most of the manu facturers being fully engaged upon contract orders. At Manchester prices of all descriptions of goods have been steadily maintained, but owing to its having been holiday week few deal ings have been entered into ; at Bradford there has been a fair demand for piece goods for the home trade, and some inquiry has been experi enced for the various continental markets. Worsted yarns fully maintain previous rates. The hosiery trade of Leicester has been exceedingly active, particularly in good useful descriptions of goods, and the operatives generally are actively employed. At Birmingham the military gun trade has been brisk, but in other branches little change of im portance can be recorded. At Sheffield and Wol verhampton no transactions of any magnitude have been concluded, the holidays having created a partial suspension of business. In the Liverpool Cotton Market on Saturday a moderate business was transacted, and prices con tinued firm. The sales were estimated at 6,000 bales. The Railway Share Market closed rather quietly, and quotations were without any change of importance. The Monarch, from Australia. has been announced this morning, with £171,392, and the Asia, from the United States, with £288,889. The current charge for first-class bills in the ge neral discount market is 21 per cent., but, despite the upward tendency induced by increasing de mand, any important alteration is scarcely consi dered probable. Trade is too quiet to give active employment to money, and the absorption in joint stock projects is unusually limited. The general aspect of the market is, therefore, unchanged. The requirements of the commercial classes are met on easy terms, and at the Bank of England the appli cations are still very moderate. A decline of 2s. to 3s. per quarter has taken place in the corn market to-day. The American advices report an increased de mand for money in New York, the City Banks having parted with 2,130,894 dollars, in loan and discount, during the week ending the 4th inst. The rate of exchange on England tended down wards, and a further slight decline will probably arrest the exportation of gold to this country. A fall of about 1 per cent. has taken place in the English Funds. Business has continued quiet, but a preponderance of sales has caused general depres sion. This unfavourable movement has partly re sulted from the intelligence from the Con tinent in reference to anticipated revolutionary troubles in Hungary. The accounts from India are also considered unsatisfactory. Consols opened at 921 but they have since been 921 :; the latest quotations are 921 Z. The New Threes and the Reduced Annuities have receded to 921; Exchequer Bills to 235. prem. ; and India Loan Debentures to 94 is . , but ditto Scrip is steady at 931 to 94 ; and Bank Stock has improved to 219 and 220. In the Foreign Market the transactions have been confined to a few securities, but these have been very depressed. Turkish 6 per Cents. have de clined 5 per cent., viz., to 71 and 73, while the New are 58 to 60, The 6 per Cents. are 1031 ; Sardinian Bonds have been 801 811 ; Russian 5 per Cents., 104 ; and the 41 per Cents., 94a 95 ; Venezuelan Deferred Bonds have been dealt in at 161 ; Mexi can at 18 to 181, and Chilian at 100. A rather extensive business has been transacted in the Railway Share Market, but prices have fully sympathised with the heaviness in the Censol Market. North Western, Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincoln, Midland, and South Eastern have declined ss. Caledonian, Eastern Counties, Great Northern, Great Western, London and Blackwall, and North Eastern (York), 10s. Lancashire and Yorkshire, and Norfolk, 155., and North Eastern (Berwick), £l. London and Brighton have im proved about £l. The Foreign and Colonial lines are dull, and in most instances at lower rates. Lombardo-Venetian New Shares have declined to 67, ; Antwerp and Rotterdam, to 31 ; and West Flanders, to 5, 4 - 51. East Indian have receded to 1001 1001 ; Great Indian Peninsula, to 98; and Great Western of Canada, to 141 141. Joint-Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares show increased depression. London Chartered of Australia have declined lOs ; London Joint Stock, ss. ; Red Sea Telegraph, ss. ; and Crystal Palace Preference Shares, ss.

Great heaviness prevailed in the demand for all kinds of wheat in the leading country markets held on Saturday, and the quotations had a downward tendency. In spring corn and flour very little was passing, at barely stationary prices. Throughout the continent, wheat has changed hands slowly, on easier terms. In barley and other articles a steady business has been passing, at about previous cur rencies. In the United States prices still rule high. The arrivals of English produce up to our market, last week, were limited. The imports from abroad were liberal, viz., 20,939 qrs. of wheat, 8,027 barley, 21,282 oats, 350 rye, 113 beans, 720 peas, 7,560 linseed, 10,470 rapeseed, 30 maize, 55 sundry seeds, and 8,186 sacks of flour. A very limited supply of English wheat was received fresh up to-day, coastwise and by land carriage ; but we had several of last week's unsold samples on the stands. For all kinds we had a very dull inquiry, and prices gave way, compared with Monday last, from 2s to 3s per qr. At that amount of depression a fair average quantity of wheat was disposed of. We were extensively supplied with most descriptions of foreign wheat. Even the finest samples were much ne glected, and the quotations may be considered nominally 2s. per quarter lower than on this day se'ennight. Floating cargoes of grain were very dull, and lower to 141 I I purchase. Most kinds of barley changed hands slowly, at about last week's currency. The malt trade was in a most inactive state, at last week's quotations. The supply of oats was good, and sales progressed slowly, at late rates. Beans and peas were inactive, but not cheaper. The flour trade was heavy, and prices had a drooping tendency. Town made fell 4s to 4s 6d per 28 lbs. CURRENCY PER IMPERIAL MEASURE.

The receipts of beasts fresh up this morning from our own grazing districts were seasonably good as to number, and in fair condition. Owing to the prevailing warm weather, the beef trade was in a very inactive state, and, in some instances, prices were a shade lower than on Monday last. The top figure for Scots was 4s per 81bs. From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, we received 2,200 Scots, short horns, and crosses; from other parts of England, 300 of various kinds; from inland, 250 Scots, &c., and from Ireland 30 oxen. A very large supply of sheep was brought forward. All kinds were a dull inquiry, and the quotations gave way 2d to 4d per 81bs. The highest price for Downs was 5s per 81bs. Lambs, the show of which was extensive, sold heavily, on rather lower terms. About 600 camp to hand from Ireland, and 250 from the Isle of Wight.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH. (Before Mr. Justice Hill and a Special Jury.) JACKSON V. SPACKMAN. This was an action for , damages against the defendam for want of professional skill as a surgeon, and neglect of duty in his surgical treatment of the broken leg of the plaintiff. The plaintiff was a sergeant of the police force at Wickham about 20 years, and the defendant is a surgeon practising in the neighbourhood. It appeared from the plaintiff's evidence, that on Sunday forenoon the 24th May, 1857, about one o'clock, he was ridingin a dog-cart, about a mile from Wickham, and on jumping out of the cart he broke his leg. He was taken to his lodgings in Wickham, and sent for the defendant, who attended and examined plaintiff's leg, bandaged it up and set it in a leathern black japanned case, and left it resting there five or six weeks. Defendant frequently called after wards, undid the bandages, examined the leg, ban daged it up and set it in the case again. Plaintiff had seen several broken legs set, and told defendant that his leg was not properly reduced, as the broken frontal on the shin bone protruded, and caused great pain and swelling. The defendant answered that everything was done that could be done, and that the fracture in the leg would be reduced with the small bones, and the swell ing by rest only. The plaintiff was not satisfied, and came to London to consult Dr. Co; but found he was not at Dome. He afterwards went into Guy's Hospital, but the fracture was not fined down; the ancle bone was not set, and the one leg is still shorter than the other. The medical evidence and letters produced, which were rather contradictory, went to show that it was the defen dant's duty in reducing the fracture to set, or endeavour to set the protruding bone by pinching or lengthening it to put it in its right place ; but he had neglected to do so, and the result from this neglect or want of skill is a permanent injury to the plaintiff's leg, which might have been pre vented if due skill and care had been taken in setting it. Mr. Sergeant Parry appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Edwin James, Q.C., for the defendant. The defendant's counsel called and examined several medical gentlemen to prove that the defendant's treatment of the plaintiff's leg was both professionally and skilfully good, and that nothing further could be done. The defendant was also examined. His evidence sup ported his defence. He has been fifteen years a doctor of medicine and surgeon, and that the treatment given was the best that could be done. Position and extension is the best mode of reducing fractures, and lotions for swellings used immediately after the accident. Plaintiff's witnesses, Messrs. Hilton and Cox, considered that the bone of the fracture could not have been brought into apposition. The defendant's medical witnesses were of a different opinion. The jury found a verdict for the defendant. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner Goulburn.) IN RE DUYSTER. This bankrupt was described as of Old Trinity House, Water-lane, Tower-street, glass and general merchant. The balance-sheet, by Messrs. Hart, commences Jan. 1, 1858, and ends Dec. 29, 1858, shows :—Debtor to creditor, £7,186; to creditors holding security, £2,579 ; surplus, Jan. 1, £1,156 ; liabilities, £903. Creditor :—By good debts, £454 145.; doubtful, £157; bad, £2,895; property given up, £677 ; property held by creditors, £2,548, £2,038 ss. Bd. ; house expenses, £627 ; losses, £4,408 ; liabilities, £920. There have been several long examinations in the case as to the disposal of certain property, and which were reported at the time, and the case was adjourned for consideration. His Honour now allowed the bankrupt to pass without further discussion. IN RE WISE AND WEBSTER. These bankrupts were described as of New Weston-stitet, coopers, and to-day applied for their certificates. The debts are about £1,276, and the dividend will be very small.' The cooperage business had been carried on for 150 years, 50 by Mr. Wise, until he was joined by Webster, who had married his daughter-in-law, and from that time losses were incurred by Webster, owing to overcharges by the timber merchant. Mr. Wise, who is 84 years of age, and in ill health, had not interfered for some time in the business. His Honour said it was a case in which he could grant the elder bankrupt a certificate of the first class ; and, as the books had been exceedingly well kept, Webster might take one of the second class. SHERRTFS' COURT. SENDING PRIVATE LETTERS TO TEE JUDGE. Hie Honour complained that a person who had been a suitz at this court had thought proper to address a letter to him. This was a very improper course for any one to adopt, and no notice would, or ought to be, taken of such missives. The subject of the epistle in question was a general complaint that the officer of the court had not al lowed an attorney's costs in a case gained by the writer of the letter. Now, no attorney appeared, but the plaintiff was represented by an attorney's clerk. His Honour was .determined-not ad not to allow coats when attorneys' clerks ap-: peared, or it would be opening a wide field indeed. It was a very improper course for any person to take to' send a letter to a judge; and, as far as his Honour was concerned, no notice beyond the present would ever be taken of such a matter. LOAN SOCIETIES-DANCE V. PETTIT. This was a summons to recover the balance of a promis sory note for £5. Mr. Buchanan, for defendant, inquired of an agent who represented plaintiff how much of the original sum had been received by defendant. Plaintiff's agent did not know, but believed that the usual LOs. had been deducted. Mr. Buchanan—You had better produce your books. His Honour—lt is no matter. Does defendant admit his signature ? Mr. Buchanan—l believe he does. His Honour—Then you are helpless, and defendant must pay in ten days. MAKING HIS OWN BARGAIN-DANCE• V. BETTS. This was a summons to recover the balance of a promis sory note of £4. Mr. Buchanan, for defendant, asked that person how much he received, and was told £3 Bs. His Honour—You must pay in ten days. Time was asked for and refused by his Honour. People signed these notes and made their own bargains, and must pay. His Honour could not grant time in cases of pro missory notes and bills of exchange. HASTE TO THE FIRE-IMPORTANT CASEHOLLICK V.I LOWE. This was an action against the Society for the Protection of Life from Fire, of which defendant iA one of the acting committee. Mr. W. B. Davies appeared for the plaintiff. This was a running down case, and plaintiff and a witness averred that one of the society's fire-escapes was driving down Trafalgar-square at the rate of 10• miles an hour, and the person in charge having lost control over it, was unable to stop it from running into plaintiff's van, and damaging it. For the defence, the fire-escape conductor and a police constable said the escape was proceeding to a fire in Oxford street. Plaintiff was galloping round the corner of Tra falgar-square, and had he kept nearer to the kerb the accident would not have happened. His Honour said that no evidence had been adduced to show negligence on the part of defendant, without which plaintiff could not recover. Added to this it had been sworn that plaintiff was galloping round a corner, and thus contributed to his own damage. It was a sad thing to see such reckless driving, and no one could go through the streets without danger of being knocked down by something galloping round a corner. Verdict for defendant. ILFOIiD PETTY SESSIONS. THE LATE EXTRAORDINARY ROBBERY OF L 400.— George Hickinbotham, a respectable-looking youth, de scribed as a labourer, was charged with being concerned with others not in custody in stealing a cash-box, contain ing £4OO in notes and gold, some silver spoons, and the probate of a will, the property of a lady named Sutton. The facts of the case have been recently before the public, and it appeared that the prosecutrix had for safety lodged the cash-box with her mother, an old lady named Martindale, above one hundred years of age, who resided in Plaistow Broadway with her two daughters, both on the shady side of sixty. The robbery was effected bysome person disguised as a female, and three witnesses swore that the prisoner entered the house at half-past five and was seen to leave it at half-past six, during which period the robbery was effected. Mr. Beard attended for the proscution, and Mr. Solomon for the prisoner. Miss Martindale, who is very much afflicted, was brought to the court in a cab, and deposed that she was in the room upon the evening of a certain day, when a figure attired in a gown and shawl entered the room, and after going to the drawer quietly departed, shutting the door. Witness tried to open it, but finding that it was held on the other side, sat down until her sister came in. The other daughter said that she found a shawl and gown in the passage which had before been safe in her room, from which she missed 1.45 lls. Mr. Beard stated that one of the notes deposed to have been in the cash-box, and numbered 20,148 had been paid by the Bank of England on the 28th of May, or one week after the robbery. Mrs. Sutton said the prisoner was her nephew. She had suffered on two previous occasions from the visits of thieves, and had entrusted the box to her mother for safety. Prisoner's landlady proved that he did not sleep at home on the night of the robbe Mr. Solomon called two witnesses to prove that prisoner was at a certain place on the morning of the robbery, from one to eight. Mr. Beard applied for another remand, which was granted, bail being again refused. It has been rumoured that the Peninsular and Oriental Company have been solicited by the Greek mer chants of this country to re-establish their line of steamers to Constantinople, that those merchants have guaranteed to send a large number of tons of goods by such a line annually and that the company have favourably entertained the solicitation.

On Saturday evening, " Hamlet" was performed at this theatre, Mr. Hermann Vezin sustaining the part of the Royal Dane. If anything could reconcile us to the repre sentation of this extraordinary play—the beauty of which can only be fully appreciated in the quiet seclusion of the closet—it would be the excellence of this gentleman's acting. His conception of the part is evidently the result of long and diligent meditation, and its execution is as bold as it is successful in its effect. He repudiates, we see, Goethe's idea that the madness of Hamlet was the natural —indeed, inevitable—consequence of a burden being laid on two shoulders too weak to bear, and takes it for granted that it was a feint throughout. The text, in a majority of instances,;wouli certainly seem to warrant this hypothesis. We have said that Mr. Vezin's conception is the result of long study. Not a scene but evinces proof of this. His first soliloquy, " Oh, that this too solid flesh would melt," was declaimed with infinite care. It was not, as is too often the case, broken up with tedious pauses, but on the contrary, it was given in a strain of deep, continuous, heartfelt thought. The scene with the ghost is admirably played Surprise, awe, horror, indignation were never more strikingly portrayed, or the shades of difference more nicely discriminated. His advice to the players was clearly and judiciously given ; nor must we omit to notice the unaffected simplicity and tenderness with which ho exclaimed, in allusion to his father— "He was a man, take him for all in all, I ne'er shall look upon his like again." Decidedly, among Mr. Vezin's most felicitous efforts was the play-scene, where he probes his uncle and mother to the quick. Here art achieved a full and perfect triumph. His moody impatience for the moment of discovery; his scarcely subdued air of transport while the plot is ripening ; and his irrepressible burst of exultation when he finds that the project was.suc cessful, developed skill and power of the highest order. The scene, too, with the Queen was another fine piece of acting, which would have been greatly heightened had Miss A. Kemble worked up the interest of the part of the Queen at this particular point of the play. The acting in the graveyard scene was nature itself. The utterance of the words, " Alas, poor Yorick," went instantly to the heart. The remaining lines of the soliloquy produced a deathlike stillness we never hoard with in the walls of the Surrey Theatre before, but it was succeeded by the most enthusiastic plaudits. In a word, Mr. Vezin's Hamlet may with truth be pronounced perfect. Mr. Calvert's Laertes was a highly judicious piece of acting. Mr. B. Potter, as the Ghost, was good; and Mr. Cooper deserves special commendation for the care with which he gave the part of Horatio. At the termina tion of the tragedy, Mr. Vezin, in obedience to the loud calls of the audience, appeared before the curtain to bow his thanks—a compliment he received also at the termina tion of the second and third acts. STRAND. The revival of the grand extravaganza of , g Kenilworth" has proved eminently successful. The principal Part s are all well sustained. Mrs. Selby is as great as ever in her personation of the portly and pompous Queen Elizabeth; and Miss M. Oliver, Miss Charlotte Saunders, Miss Marie Wilton, Miss Ida Wilton, and Miss L a vine, present strong array of f em i n i ne talent. The nea t piece of , " Which a of the Two ?" and the outrageous drollery of " Caught by the Ears," in which Mr. J. Rogers is so extravagantly funny, still continue very attractive. ASTLEY'S. Mr. Cooke, ever on the search for new attraction for his patrons, and determined that this popular and favourite place of amusement shall continue, as it always has been, to be the first of its kind in the metropolis, has revived that never-dying. and ever-attractive spectacle of " The Battle of Waterloo." The present aspect of continental affairs has, no doubt, suggested the idea of this warlike revival : though the cause is of little consequence, the subject itself is ever new a nd always attractive. Those who remember what the. Battle of Waterloo was at this house, in the days when the Duke himself used to go and see it, will have all their old memories revived, the Prussian bivouac, French outposts, the reviesw of the British troops, and the battle field of Ligny, all rise up again, and are reproduced with all their original truth and vigour. The episodes of Fedora, of the Highlander and his sweetheart, who follows him, as a soldier, and whom he finds afterwardi on the field of Quatre Bras, with the scenes with Napoleon and the British soldier, in fact all the incidents that made this piece so successful in what we may call the last gene ration, are brought back to us again after so long a slumber ing. Mr. J. Holloway deserves praise, for his careful play ing of the part of Napoleon; so also may we say of all the characters, though if any special distinction is drawn, it must be in favour of Mr. Herbert, as Molly Malony. The drama, from first to last, was eminently successful. The Scenes in the Circle that followed, were of the usual order of excellence to be found at this house, in which those in comparable artistes, Henry Cooke, William Cooke, jun., Miss Emily Cooke, and Miss Francesco took part. Ano ther version of Mr. Stirling's farce, called " The Volun teers ; or, the Ladies' Rifle Club," concluded the entertain ments. ELECTRIC _LIGHT. We stated a few days ago that an experimental a lt atu m s a h y a n d o b t ee b n e s an tre electric seen cclr in Bearing he P I g a r h i t s i n ; g hence uninteresting to explain to our readers- the nature of such an apparatus. The principle on , which it is constructed is electro-magnetism ; that is the property which electricity has, under certain cir cumstances, of producing magnetism, and con versely. Suppose a wire, many yards in length, and clothed with silk, to be coiled round a hollow cylinder, and let a magnetic bar of steel fit like a core in the hollow ; then each time this core is in troduced into the cylinder, an electric current passes through the wire ; though of short duration, its in tensity is proportional to the length of the coil. Again, each time the core is taken out, another electric current is produced in an inverse direction, so that by constantly insertingUnd drawing out the core, an indefinite number of electric current may be obtained. if the core, instead of being a mag netic steel bar, consists of a bar of unmagnetised - iron, an electric current be made to pass through the coil of wire, then an equally singular effect is obtained. The iron core becomes so highly mag netised that it will raise heavy bars of iron, and the attraction is so great that it requires a strong man to wrench the bar from the magnetised core. This effect, however, ceases as soon as the electric current is interrupted. It is clear from this, that it is much easier to obtain a permanent effect by magnetising and unmagnetising a bar in this way, than by alternately inserting and drawing out a steel magnet, as in the former method ; and the only difficulty that remains is to give the apparatus . a convenient mechanical arrangement. This is done as follows :—Suppose a hexagonal frame placed horizontally on legs, like a table. At each of the angles let there be one of the electro-magnets, or cylinders of induction with wire coiled round, as above described, and supported by an inner frame, so that the whole may have the ap pearance of a horizontal wheel, with electro magnets for spokes; only the nave is supplied by a hollow frame. In this hollow there fits a drum, revolving on a vertical axis, and carrying on its cir cumference eight bars of soft iron, which., in going ; •round, come very nearly in contact the electro magnets. Now, from what has been said, it is easy to understand that, whenever one of these bars ap proaches an electro-magnet, it is attracted laterally until it comes in front of it, when the action of the electro-magnet ceases ; but at that instant the attractive power of the next electro-magnet com mences, and so on. Now as each of the 'bars thus receives six impulses in one revolution, and as there are eight bars, the number of impulses received in all by the revolving druni is forty-eight,. which impulses occurring in a very few seconds, produce in point of fact a continuous motion. Now, if the place of the spokes be occupi e d, no t by: cylinders of induction, but by magnetised iron bars, , the cylinders being fixed on th e revo l v i ng d rum , and their hollows fitted with cores of unmagnetised soft iron ; then, each time a cylinder comes in front of a magnet, the soft iron becomes magnetised, and generates a current in the coil, which ceases as soon as the cylinder changes its place. Now, as the motion is continuous, and the revolution rapid, each ceasing current is replaced by another, and so on ad infinitum. These cur rents are concentrated into a common conductor, and, by this means, an amount of electri city is obtained which will melt an iron wire three yards long and one-fourth of 0, line in diameter, and perform greater wonders still, according to the power of the apparatus. One consisting of 32 cylinders and 24 magnetS, and made to revolve 235 times in a minute, was seen to produce a per manent and regular light equal to 230 tapers. Such, indeed, was the intensity of the light pro duced, that a lighted candle being held against a white wall, not only the shadow of the candle, but also the shadow of the flame was projected on the wall by the electric light ! The cost at which electric light of the intensity described might be produced, would not exceed' 15 centimes per hour for each apparatus. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. CHARGE OF ROBBERZ AGAINST • A POST-OFFICE LETTER CARRIER.—RodBrick Rowe, 9, Avery-row, New Bond-street, Post-office district letter carrier, 770, was charged with stealing a quantity of wearing apparel the property of a fellow-lodger. From the evidence of Mr. Wm. Doble, tailor, landlord of the house No. 9, Avery-row, thekriaoner had lodged with him about two months, occupying a room with an other young man, and on Saturday afternoon the prisoner being up in the room longer than he thought he ought to be he watched him, and seeing him leave the house with a bag well filled he stopped him -just as he got outside, and on asking what he had got, he said some of the other young man's clothes, and then perceiving that he was rather bulky asked what he had got round his waist, and he then found it was a pair of trowsers, which, with the articles in the bag, belonged to a lodger named Callen. His reason for suspecting him was, that he knew he was about to leave the Post-office. Francis Callen identified the articles, consisting of coats and other articles, as his property. They were safe a few hours previously. In answer to Mr. Beadon, Mr. Doble said he believed the prisoner was about to leave the post-office, because he had not met what were called the "charge,. The prisoner said he was about to leave because of bad health. He had been drinking for four days or it would not have happened. Mr. Beadon said it was a very bad case—robbing a fel low lodger—and he should commit him for three months with hard labour. s THE LATE MURDER AT W ALWORTH.J—WiIIiaM Moore, the man charged with the murder of his wife in Trafalgar-street, Walworth, about a month ago, for whose apprehension a reward of £lOO was offered by Government, was captured on Saturday evening at Notting-hill. NEW GUN VESSELS FOR HER MAJESTY'S SER VICE. Mr. W. C. Miller, shipbuilder, Toxteth-dock, Liverpool, has just received an order from Government to construct two despatch gun vessels of upwards of 450 tons burden. The following are the principal dimensions : Length between perpendiculars, 14.5 feet , extreme breadth, 25 feet 4 inches; depth in hold, 13 feet. At Novara, there are two large airy hospitals, one civil and the other military. All the ladies of the place, without exception of rank or position, have offered their service to the surgeons as nurses, and their conduct is stated to be admirable. They have been seen with white aprons and tucked-up sleeves, comforting and relieving the sufferers. s o P f a t o c t the R oy al THE OVERLAND MAIL.--The heaviest overland i wasconsis te d one de acrosses mailtf h o r e mail ever sent from this country boxes for Australia, the size of the naedChannelt andsof rnco China, Saturday Doverand night. t 9 o o C alais tr t ia former, latter b numeingtbhrer of boxes eetimes sentthat oncethe ofa In 1854 about 4the average 40 ; there is now a weekly overland mail and , compared with 1854, the numb er o f boxes despatc hed 9 on Saturday night was equal to ab ou t 366 ordinary mail overland boxes. Although the French Government by the last Post-office convention considerably reduced the rate charged for the carriage of the overland mail from Calais to Marseilles, yet from the increased number and weight of the mails now sent the total income must be much greater at the reduced than at the former high rate. STRANGE CASE.—At the Liverpool Police-court, on Saturday, Mr. J. B. Aspinall, barrister, applied for a warrant or summons against William Leslie, captain of the ship Louisa Braginten, of Bideford, for an assault and false imprisonment committed on Messrs. Manuelag i tt i tle Anjal and Custodio Gallo, mem b ers of th e Legislature, and Guillenio Mat ta and B enjamini e n na, e dit o rs of the newspaper A am blea Constztujenta, published at Santiago• it appear ed from the stat ement of /sPlimina, that about the 9th December last a political disturbance took place in and th ese persons, who bel onge d t o the party which was hostile to the Government, were appre hended in Santiago and thrust into prison, where they were kept for some time as political offenders. They were afterwards marched off to Valparaiso under a military escort, which they reached on the night of the 9th March. They were immediately put on board the above-named vessel, which was bound for England, a Chilian man-of war steamer taking her out to sea for 10 or 15 miles. As soon as they recovered from their surprise and sea-sickness, they remonstrated with the captain on the illegality of his conduct, and requested him to land them at some port on the Peruvian coast. This, however, he refused to do, stat ing that he had contracted with the Chilian Government for 3,000 dollars to take them to England, and deliver them to the Chilian Consul at Liverpool, and that if he failed to do so he would have to forfeit 1,500 dollars. The witness and his companions offered to pay him 3,000 dollars, and subsequently the 1, 500 in addition, if he would take them back; but he declined to break his contract They were landed in Liverpool on. Thursday night, and proceeded at once to seek assistance in procuring redress. The magis.. trate (Mr. Mansfield) asked why Mr. Aspinall did not apply superior court on such an important matter ? Mr. to a Aspinall replied that the term was over, and the case Was pressing. Mr. Mansfield said he recollected a similar case in which the Marquis of Waterford carried off a returning officer from Ireland to Denmark on the eve of an election. He would grant a summons for the appearance of Captain Leslie on Tuesday (to-morrow). The Belgian elections are terminated; and, ac cording to the Telegraphe of Brussels, they are on the whole unfavourable to the Ministry and the Liberal party. The Madrid journals of the 13th are principally occupied with the acquittal of M. Collantes, and with the recognit ion of the Queen by the Infante Don Sebastien. They regard the latter event as a severe blow to the Carlist party. It has been stated by telegraph th at two of the co-accused of M. Collantes, MM. Luque and Beratarrechea, were acquitted with hi m ; as to the th i r d, M. Maria Mora, formerly Di rector of Publ i c W or k s , w ho not having presented himself, was tried by default, he was declared guilty, and condemned to 20 years' hard lab our at t h e galleys, t o perpetual privation. of political rights and of the privileg e . of occupying public f unc tions, to 40 years' suy police, commencing on the expirai.oa of hi s 20 vt3lllance o f the i years' hard labour, and lastly, to a fine of 20,0 00 of haw ig embezzled. rettabls,wahnidchtohpeawyasbauckeustoetahe Trea . s , ury the 975,000 re Stock Stock Stock Stock Stock Stock Stock Stock 161 1613 4 Stock, Stock Stock Stock 121 Stock Stock 10 Stock' Stock Stock Stock Stock Stock Stock Stock 25 Stock Stock, Stock, Stock Stock Stock Stock, Stock, Stock Stock Stock Stock Stock 25 Stock; Stock; ~~?~"~
