M 0 NIE MA RI: E2' A ND CITY 1V ETi CITY, Two O'CLOCK. The Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets during the last few days have shown less animation. Tha few transactions in tea since the last public sales have been at former rates. Sugars have been depressed, only the better qualities of West India realising former values. In the refined market only a limited business has been done, at rather lower rates. Coffee has been in fair request. For coffee, fruit, and spices there has been an average inquiry, at former quotations. Saltpetre continued inactive, and prices have slightly given w a y . A more active demand has been experienced for tallow on the part of the trade, and a considerable amount of business has also been done for forward delivery, prices generally showing an upward ten dency. At the extraordinary general meeting of the proprietors of the Chartered Bank of India, Aus tralia, and China, held to-day, an ad interim divi dend. at the rate of 7 per cent. per annum was declared, free of income-tax, for the six months ending June 30. It was stated by Mr. T. Mitchell, M.P. (chairman), that the profits for the half-year would leave a surplus after the payment of this dividend, and that owing to the prosperous state of the bank a considerable augmentation of the Reserve Fund will be proposed at the end of the year. There is still a limited demand for accommoda tion, and the rates continue easy with a downward tendency, owing to the prevailing abundance in the hands of bankers and discount firms. The preparations for the usual quarterly disbursements have not yet produced any perceptible influence upon the market, and although the settlements at the Stock Exchange, and the liquidation of the bills due on the 4th of proximo, may cause a little tem porary activity, increased relief is expected from the payment of the October dividends, A fair amount of business was recorded in the Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday, and prices were steady. The sales were about 10,000 bales. The Railway Share Market closed quietly, at pre vious rates. The amount subscribed for railway purposes during the present month is £1,821,956, and the calls due in October represent a total of £925,828. A small amount of business has been transacted to-day in the Market for Public Securities, and the operations have not caused the slightest change in prices, Consols being 931 for money, and 93t . 1 1 for account. A few sales for transfer have been made, but their effect has not been important. India Stock is heavy at 217 ; ditto New Loan is steady at 1931 ; ditto Debentures are at 961; but Exchequer Bills have receded to par. Only a small amount of business has been trans acted in the Foreign Stock Market, and prices show more firmness. Turkish 6 per Cents. are 731 to 741 ; ditto New, 571 1,-; and the 4 per Cents. are 1012 ; Mexican have improved to 22, and Russian 5 per Cents. to 1041 ; Grenada Active are 15 161, and Venezuelan 3 per Cents. remain at 231. The Ocean Marine Insurance Shares are 2 k prem. ; the Thames and Mersey, & prem. ; and the Universal, t prem. The dealings in the Railway Share Market have been on a very moderate scale, and prices have shown rather less firmness in most instances owing to the arrangements in progress for the liquidation. Great Western, Lancashire and Yorkshire, and North-Eastern (York) have receded ss. ; Caledonian 10s. ; Great Northern and South-Eastern 15s. ; Midlands are a shade firmer. _ . The Foreign lines continue very dull ; South Austrian and Lombardo-Venetian realise 11. In the Colonial Market prices have also given way. Grand Trunk of Canada have declined 10s.; East Indian, ss. ; and Great Indian Peninsula, 10s. to 15s. Joint Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares have shown little animation, and prices are not materially altered. BRITISH FUNDS—CLOSING PRICES. 3 per Cent.

Last evening, an accident of a somewhat unusualcharae ter, and attended with fatal results in one, if not several, cases, occurred about half-past six o'clock, by the breaking of an iron foot bridge which crosses the Rochdale Canal from the end of Prussia-street towards New Islington. Steps to a height of 9 feet on each side lead to the bridge, which forms an arch, and it is used principally by the operatives in the neighbourhood in going to and from their work. The New Islington wakes are now being held on a piece of vacant ground near the bridge, and at the time of the accident about 40 persons were, on what is said to have been but a - very frail erection. The width of the bridge only permitted the passage of about three persons abreast, and the pressure proving much too considerable, a break occurred simultaneously a few feet from the steps on either side, the intermediate portion, bearing some 20 people, being precipitited into the water. A large number of visitors to the wakes were in the immediate locality, and " very speedily strenuous efforts were made to rescue those who had been so suddenly immersed in th e e canal. who had These efforts were in the main successful, mthose fallen into the Water being got out without more serious consequences than those incident to a thorough ducking. But, unfortunately, the lifeless body of a girl, apparently about twelve years of age, name unknown, was also dragged out of the water. Inquiries were also made last night at the B division Police Station, in Livesey-street, by several persons, who had missed their friends, and it is considered highly probable that other bodies will yet be discovered. Operations were commenced last night for drawing off the water, inorder that the canal might be effectually searched ; but at an early hour this morning no additional discovery had been made. The bridge is said to have been in a weak " state for some time, and about two years ago a project for a new one was mooted, but was not carried out. The foot traffic at this point of the canal is of course suspended , for the present. ARRIVAL OF BER MAJESTY AT ANTWERP. (From a Supplement to the Gazette of Friday.) WHITEHALL, SEPT. 24. The Right Hon. Sir George Cornewall Lewis, Bart., has received a Dispatch from the Right lion. Lord J. Russell, dated Antwerp, Sept. 24, 8.40 a.m., announcing that her Majesty landed at that place this morning at a quarter be fore eight o'clock, a fter an e xcellent passage, and proceeded to Frankfort at eigh t o ' cloc k. A violent storm, accompanied with thunder, burst over Marseilles on the 20th. The heavy rains which have fallen in the neighbourhood of Marseilles since the begin ning of the present month , have seriously injured the crop of figs, a great part of which rot on the tree instead of ripening. The Reine Rortense, which form ed p art of th e Imperial flotilla, reached Marseilles on dSuraturdmo wholethe the preceding night. Letters state that lately in Bohemia and par ticularly in the Circles Prague and Koniggratz, a_grfat number of Roman Catholics have abjured their re l igion and embraced Protestantism. In the village of ow alone 47 persons have acted in that manner. SIGNIFICANT.—" Everybody in Naples," says a recent letter, "now occupies himself or herself excluhea r d with politics—even the very children do so. I just a little boy five years of age say to a girl of three, Wil l you play with me? I will cry, "Lon.. live Garibald i!" you shall answer, " Long live the King'!" and I will then kill you.' " LORD BROUGHAM'S AGE.—Noticing the state ment which has recently gone the round of the papers that Lord Brougham was born on the 19th September, 1778, a correspondent of the Glasgow Herald says :—" It is gene rally understood that Lord Brougham himself does not know the date of his birth ; and from the following quota tion it is evident that if he was born on the 19th September, 1778, he must have been born four months after his father's marriage, which we all know was not the case :—Scot's _Magazine, May, 1778.—May 25.

TITESDAY EVOVING, SEPTIOIIIER 25, 1860. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.-(THIS DAY.) - (Before Mr. Payne.) John Carrel was indicted for pot stealing. A witness named Webb said the prisoner told him he had " bashed" the pot. George Upton, 115 B, said on Saturday morning I went to the pris3ner's house and fouald a frying pan, which I now produce, with white metal in it. Prisoner came in,"tmd I asked hint who used the pan last, and he said he did. I asked what he used it for, and ho said to melt up old stuff. The prisoner said Webb was a professional begging letter writer. The witness said it was a gross falsehood. The jury found the prisoner guilty. The Judge asked whether he was known. Some of the constables said they knew him to be an as sociate of thieves. The prisoner here made a desperate effort to jump over the front of the dock to assault one of the constables, but was prevented doing so. He was sentenced to 12 months' imprisonment with hard labour. William Craine was found guilty of assaulting Police constable Wayman, in Golden-lane, on the 2d of Septem ber last. A previous conviction having been proved he was sen tenced to two years' imprisonment. John Johnstone was found guilty of stealing a quantity of silver plate, the property of a gentleman residing at Broaipton. The articles ware taken from the plate-basket during the absence of the servants. lie was sentenced to 18 months' imprisonment with hard labour. Thomas Welsh was convicted of three attempts to com mit felony. A previous conviction was proved, and the learned judge sentenced him to two years' imprisonment with hard labour. POLICE INTELLIGENCE-(171IS DAL) BOW-STREET. THE DRUNKEN CRIPPLE.—Ann Taylor, the cripple who was discharged yesterday by Mr. Henry for being fcund drunk and incapable of taking care of herself, was again placed at the bar this mornin charged with creating a disturbance at St. Giles's Workhouse. As she was placed in the dock she artistically placed her crutch pro minently in view and made a curtsey to the magistrate. The porter of the workhouse said—Last night the pri soner, in a state of intoxication, came to the house, and in an authoritative manner demanded admission. I told her she could not be admitted in the state she was then in, upon which she commenced using very bad language. A crowd very soon congregated, and then she began to get very violent. She demanded to know why she was ex cluded the benefits of the workhouse, when she knew that there were plenty of thieves, concubines, and such like, taking it easy therein. After she had kept up the dis turbance for some time the police had to be sent for, and with difficulty she was taken to the station-house. The police-officer said—Last evening I found the prisoner in a state of intoxication near St. Giles's Workhouse. She was rolling about on the ground and exclaiming loudly against being excluded from the workhouse. I asked her to get up and go away or I should have to take her to the station-house. She told me I could do that and be d—d. I attempted to help her up, but she again commenced using bad language, and became so outrageous that I was com pelled to send to the police-statioa for the stretcher, upon which she was conveyed to the lock- up. Magistrate—Well, prisoner, is this the way you keep your promises ? I only discharged you yesterday, and here you are again for the same misconduct. Prisoner—Your gentlemanly treatment yesterday pro duced such an effect on me that I am afraid I allowed my self to get a little excited. Magistrate--You mean drunk. Prisoner—l have an objection to that term, bat if your worship thinks I was drunk' shall not deny it. (Laughter.) Magistrate—Why you had to be conveyed to the station house on a stretcher. Prisoner—lt does not follow, therefore, that I was drunk. (Laughter.) I was very badly used at the work house, and I fell down through my lameness. Magistrate—That was the excuse you gave yesterday, and I discharged you because you promised for the future to take nothing stronger than water. Prisoner—Did I. (Laughter.) Well, if you say so, I suppose I did. My brain must have wandered a little yes terday. However, this I will say, it shan't occur again. Magistrate—Oh, I cannot allow you to go away this time. Prisoner—Can't you? Well, I'm very sorry for that. I think you can if you like. Think of my affliction. Don't send me to prison. What's the good of doing so. I will keep my promise faithfully for the future. Magistrate—Oh no, I cannot listen to your promises. Drunken people cannot be allowed to create disturbances and use bad language with impunity. Prisoner (with a look of astonishment)—Bad language I I use bad language I I would very much sooner it be said I picked a pocket than that I used bad language. Oh, there must be some mistake about that. (Laughter.) Magistrate—There is no mistake ; two of the witnesses heard you. I shall send you to prison this time. Prisoner—That will be very wrong—very wrong, indeed. (Laughter.) Of course you can do as you like, but if you do that it will be very wrong. (Laughter.) Magistrate—l shall inflict a fine of 10s., or, in default commit you to prison for seven days. Prisoner—ls that your decision ? Magistrate—Yes, certainly. Prisoner—Very well. There's somebody above that will judge you some of these days. (Laughter.) You'll get a longer time than seven days when it comes to your turn. (Loud laughter.) Good morning, sir, TERRIBLE ACCIDENT AT STOCKPORT, Yesterday at the anniversary of the opening of Vernon Park, the day's joyous proceedings termi nated in gloom and terror, owing to the trampling to death of seven persons, and the serious injury of at least four others. The cause of this lamentable catastrophe is very clear. The Cheadle wakes are being held, and they tended greatly to swell the enormous streams of human beings who flocked into the town to witness the balloon ascent from the Castle Yard, and the display of fireworks in the Market Place, with which the festivities were to be brought to a close. The Market Place can only be approached from the town side by steep narrow streets, some of them being broken by long flights of stone steps ; and last evening, the Market Place and all its approaches were densely crowded by spectators, anxious to witness the re sults of Mr. Petty's pyrotechnic skill. As regards those, all who could see had good reason to be satis fied; and itr the best of good spirits the huge crowd began to disperse soon after nine o'clock. Slowly the masses surged down the various " brows"—carried on by the pressure from behind, rather than moving individually. But speedily the scene changed in the line of Meal House Brow. There, some children and women either dropped from exhaustion or tripped and were soon beneath the feet of the descending throng. Shouts, shrieks, even death-cries could not reach far in such a scene. Those nearest the first sufferers pressed backwards, only to be overcome by those further off, who knew not that anything wrong had occurred, and who would have been helpless with- the knowledge, as against the resistless pressure out of the Market place. The scene for some time beggars description. In front, death in its most terrible form—trampling out of existence, then helpless terror—next, igno rance and wonder at the stoppage, and to crown all, the death-power coming from those who, de lighted with the day's enjoyment, thought only of merrily and happily reaching home. It was of course a long time ere effectual succour could be given to the sufferers. When at length the police force reached the spot they found that six or seven persons were dead, through trampling or suffocation. The number slightly hurt could not be ascertained ; but the injuries sustained by three or four are serious. As far as we could ascertain last night, the fol lowing are the names of the dead : John Thomas Gosling, of Hazel Grove, aged about six years. .Sabina Ford, of Stockport, between six and seven years. Wilkinson,. a female about 30 years. A man, unknown, supposed to be from Staly bridge, and who had a number of temperance pledges in his pockets. A child, eight months old, an orphan in charge of its aunt, who is also said to be killed. 0 wing to the confusion in the town, the police were unable to obtain any reliable list of the suf ferers. _ _ .

GAIZIB.ILDI' S DIFFICULTY. There is an unpleasing coincidence in the accounts which come to us from Italy. We have, indeed, tidings cf the most glorious successes, of victories gained in the field, of frightened foes fleeing before the patriot bands, and of cravens courting captivity to avoid a fight. The Irish bravoes of the Church, who went forth hoping only to have to trample down a poor peasantry, have been seen cowering beneath the swords of an insurgent people. Everything is satisfactory, except only the in cessantly-repeated testimony that discord has crept up under the cover of all this success. We turn in vain from side to side to find some reason to discredit this unwelcome tale. We dwell upon the three great public facts that Garibaldi has handed over the Neapolitan fleet to the King of Sardinia, that he has proclaimed the laws of Sar dinia throughout his new conquests, and that he has performed public acts of State in the name of Victor Emmanuel. All these favourable facts are, however, weakened or explained away by those who are closely observing what passes in Italy. Even Mr. Edwin James, who went out certainly with no design to depreciate the great man whom we have believed in as a second Washington, now describes the Neapolitans as discontented and re actionary, the roads swarming with banditti, the proclamations of Garibaldi as causing the deepest disappointment to all the friends of Italy, and the Dictator himself as surrounded and influenced by those who do not hesitate to express their wish for the proclamation of a Republic, IVe can under stand that Mr. Edwin James may not be very deep in Garibaldi's confidence, but other accounts con cur. The I)ebats throws doubts upon the contra diction given at Turin to the correspondence be tween Garibaldi and the King; other reports fortify Mr. Edwin James's rather indiscreet revelations as to the freedom with which the Dictator habitually speaks of the Emperor of the French and the friends of constitutional monarchy in Italy are saying, in sorrow and consternation, th a t t_lre country conquered. from the Bourbons will have to be re conquered from Garibaldi. Men of all shades and principles favourable to freedom are lamenting that Garibaldi has fallen into bad hands. If this be so—and we have waited in vain for something which may explain or contradict these bad tidings—then Italy was never in more immi nent danger than she is at this moment. We may hope that the check just received before Capua is only a partial and temporary repulse, and that the proclamation which states his intention to join the Sardinian troops at Rome, and then to mart!' upon Venice, is rather intended to conceal than to indi cate his future movements. But neither of these items of intelligence is reassuring upon the points that cause the greatest uneasiness to the friends of Italy. If future telegrams shall serve only to deepen the assurance that the Revolution has en tered upon a new phase, and a phase of unhappy complexion, then it is but too probable that the event for which the enemies of the Italians have been so long watching, and which they have been disappointed to find so long delayed, is at hand. According to the present appearances, the leaders of Italy are quarrelling among themselves, and the Revolution threatens to flow no longer between the banks of law and order. Garibaldi, whose very ex ceptional position with respect to the law of nations was excused, and even sanctified, by the greatness of his views and the grandness of his contempt for personal partialities or personal hatreds, has stooped a little from his pride of place, and has given signs of swerving towards a party. The recent acts of the great Italian chief have been to surround him self with men who are the avowed enemies of that constitutional form of government the armed apostle of which Garibaldi has hitherto been, and to distribute all the posts which fortune and his own great qualities have placed at his command among the avowed advocates of a Republican form of government. We fear, too, that, notwithstand ing the official denial, it is but too true that he has advanced pretensions to control the actions of the King to whom he has always professed allegiance, and has put forth those pretensions in a manner so offensive that, coupled with his Republican en tourage, it seems doubtful how far Victor Emma nuel retains the conqueror of Sicily and Naples as a subject. It is not for us, nor for Europe, looking on in sorrow at this critical position of so great a cause, to poise the merits of the two parties, and to say who is right and who is wrong. Garibaldi, doubt less, has had his slights and his ill-treatment ; but the man cannot be right who takes occasion to avenge himself at such a time as this, or who weighs slights and ill treatment when the fate of his coun try is trembling in the balance. Even if Garibaldi had done his work, had gathered all the fragments of Old Italy together, and had cemented them into one kingdom, he could not make such demands upon Victor Emmanuel as he is now doing, without for feiting the character for unselfish patriotism which had made his name so dear throughout Europe. But, so far from having consolidated his con quest, his successes are at present little more substantial in their character than the confla gration which rushes along the American prairie. A Revolution which does but destroy is only the parent of violent reaction. But it does not appear that hitherto Garibaldi has erected anything permanent in place of 'What he has pulled down. The accounts from Sicily insist that anarchy reigns in that island. The reports from Naples testify to a complete administrative disorder. There is a disbanded army scattered over the country, requiring careful watching, yet it does not appear that any steps have yet been taken to protect the industry and property of the land from the natural consequences of turning loose those wandering bands of necessitous men. The intoxi cation of a mere political success will pass away, but the absence of law and order would be found in tolerable. If industry and property should be long insecure, the popularity of Garibaldi and the exul tation of the free Italians must soon be at an end. Garibaldi is possessed of great power, but he is powerful only so long as he travels in the right path. To unite Italy into one kingdom under Victor Em manuel is a work in which he can play a very glorious part. But to establish an Italian Republic of the Mazzini pattern Garibaldi is as impotent as the beggar who sits upon the steps of St. Peter's. In these moments of enthusiasm a leader's power is probably very much over-estimated, both by . him self and by others. With all respect for popular enthusiasm, the revolutionary movements in the South of Italy have yet to ba tried by any real test. There has been no opposition. The Neapolitan soldiers would not fight. Even the army which Gari baldi has brought across to Naples is said to have excited more astonishment than admiration in the minds of the Neapolitans. He now desires the King of Sardinia to supply their places with 30,000 soldiers, while he leads his own followers northward, in order to complete the conquest of the Peninsula. Up to this moment there is nothing in the achievements of these levies to justify us in believing that they would stand even the first brunt of a collision with a disciplined army, whether French or Austrian. We have no example of the success of guerilla troops in such a contest, even when the forces have been in some degree equal ; but what the result must be of a battle between this handful of hardy guerillas, with their following of Sicilians, and such an army as either France or Austria could place in the field against them, would require no seer to foretell. It took Napoleon just ' three weeks to destroy every vestige of the. Spanish insurrection, and when we afterwards came to revive it we know how troublesome and useless an ally we found it. It took lladetzky about the same time to trample out the Lombard insurrection and to wind up the whole affair at Novara. What, then, can this all mean? 'What means the appearance of Mazzini at Naples? What the establishment of Mazzini's colleague in Sicily ? What the despatch of an emissary of the same detestable creed to London ? What this peremptory tone to the King of Sardinia ? What this prescrip tion of the statesman who has really done all that was done to initiate this progress towards Italian unity ? Are we about to be compelled to abandon all our hopes just at the moment of fruition ? Are we reluctantly to believe that the doom of slavery which has so long hung over that fair country which once lorded it so haughtily over the world, is not yet reversed, and that the time has not yet come when Italy can give birth to men who have virtue enough to sink their own passions, jealousies, and ambitions, or even to restrain them until they , have succeeded in e ff ec ting their coun try's liberation ? The crisis is still pending, and it is a great crisis for Italy and a gr eat crisis for Garibaldi. We do hope he will not allow himself to be deluded by the political Thugs wh o have got about him. The Mazzinis and Crispis have no root either in Italy or in Europ e ; and if they lead Garibaldi to believe the contrary, they will betray not only Garibaldi, butltaly, to p e rdition. We will not yet yield to these ev il tidings; we will hope Garibaldi will yet break away from these fatal counsellors. But upon the course he may now take will depend the alternative whether future genera tions of Italians will venerate his name as that of hado o f their national hero, or whether he i will al be remem vh gallantbut fanatc s e ol e d r ier bered only as a refused for Italy the fairest offer she ever freedom. -2 bites. CUNNING AND WIT.—A well-known city officer in Auld Reekie was celebrated for his cunning and wit. HiS mother having died in Edinbur g h, h e hi red a hearse an d carried her to the family burying place in the High • -lands. Be returned, it-is said, with the hearse full of smuggled whiskey, and being toased about it by a friend, lea said—" Wou, man, there's nao harm done... I enly took two; the body aAd DrQug4t 144; the qeorit." M ARLBOROUGII-STREET. Mr. Samuel Owen, whose case appeared in this journal of yesterday again attended to-day, and addressing Mr. Beadon, said ho wished to make an explanation in reference to something his worship had said the previous day—what he meant to say when he compared himself with the bishops was— Mr. Beadon said on his (Mr. Owen's) coming into court, he said ho wished to ask the reporter to make a correction, and with the usual courtesy he had no doubt that would be done, but ho would noc allow him to enter upon any dis cussion respecting the bishops— Mr. Owen said his worship had taken exception to some thing he said— Mr. Beadon said he had told him his conduct was an infringement of the law. Mr. Owen again essayed to speak in his usual emphatic manner, but he was at once stopped by Mr. Boadon, who said he would hear no more. A NIGHT CABMAN.—A rough looking fellow, named Wm. Ladwick, an unlicensed cabman, was charged as fol lows : Henry Rough, 310 A, said that at half past two that morning ho saw the prisoner asleep on a cab in Coventry street. He woke him up, and finding him under the in fluence of liquor, he took him into custody. The prisoner told him that, during the absence of the regular driver, he took the cab:off the ranks and drove a fare, for which he received half-a-crown. Mr. James May, proprietor of the cab, said as soon as the regular driver had earned enough, then the prisoner took his turn. The horse was greatly distressed, and the prisoner must have run against something, as the axletree of the cab was injured. Mr. Beadon said it was monstrous. He was driving with a badge, but not his own. He was liable to a fine of £2 for driving without the consent of the owner, £5 for driving without a license, and to two months imprisonment for being a driver and being drunk, and for all the offences he should commit him for two months. THAMES. STEALING GERMAN SAUSAGES.—JOhiI Sullivan was brought up for the first time, and John May, William , Barry, and Dennis Driscoll, on remand, before Mr. Selfe, charged with stealing four German , sausages, the property of Mr. Wegener, a pork butcher of Charles-street, St. George. in-the •E est. James Richards, in the employ of the prosecutor, said he was delivering goods at a shop in Brook-street, Ratcliff, and his master's horse and cart was in the street. There were four Germans in the cart. Mr. Selfe—Four Germans. What business had they in the cart ? Witness—Four German sausages, I mean. While I was in the shop a little boy told me that some saveloys were stolen from the cart, and I went out and missed four Germans from the cart. Mr. Selfe—Four German sausages, you mean. What are they worth ? Witness-265., sir ; they weighed 401bs. John Kelly, a boy who was without a home, until Mr. Selfe on a former occasion obtained his admission to an asylum in Belvidere crescent, was again called. The kind interposition of the • magistrate had wrought a great change in him. He was dirty and comfortless when he was before the magistrate on Thursday. He was now clean and well clad, and his hair, instead of hanging about his face in a dishevelled state, was cut short and very tidy. He stated that he saw each of the prisoners get into the cart, and each steal a German sausage. They ran away, and went into Harris's-court, a place filled with thieves and other loose characters. The brother of the prisoner May, whose real name was Allen or Apearn, gave him a piece of German sausage the same evening, and said his brother had got a big one in doors. Other evidence implicating the prisoners was given. They are youths, the sons of Irish parents, have been fre quently in custody, and all have been convicted of larceny. Sullivan has been twice convicted at the sessions, and sum marily convicted twice. An alibi was set up for Driscoll, and Mr. Selfe having some doubts about him, discharged him. There was also an amount of doubt in the case of May, who set up an alibi. He should, therefore, discharge him also. He had no doubt about Sullivan and Barry, and he sentenced them to three months' imprisonment with hard labour.

MADAME CLARA NOV ELLO.—The farewell of this great English soprano is now a matter of certainty, and the great performances of "The Creation" and "Messiah," to morrow and on Saturday next, the 26th and 29th, are ex pected to bo great features in the history of this remarkable farewell. The orchestra will number 200 instrumental per formers, and the chorus more than 2,000. That this re markable "farewell" should be considered as a great event, and deplored as a real bereavement, is not at all as tonishing, for the artistic achievements of Madame Clara Novelle are so essentially connected with all the great musical performances which for many years have delighted us ; the recolllection of her is so closely interwoven with all that is noble and beautiful in the creative musical art, that to the regret of losing so distinguished a performer must be added the pain of being constantly reminded of a loss in many respects irreparable. We need not remind our readers of Madame Novello's recent triumphs in the provinces, least of all need we speak of the grand display of her powers given at the Great Handel Festival before an audi ence of 27,000 people, when her wonderful voice resounded through the immense area of the Crystal Palace, filling every corner of it with exquisite music. The artistic world will doubtless fully understand and appreciate the irrepa rable loss it is about to sustain, and take every means to hear once more the incomparable voice, which, so far as the public is concerned, will soon be hushed for ever. TELEGRAPHIC LINES IN AUSTRIA.—A return respecting the telegraphic lines in Austria during the last 10 years has just been published, and is of a favourable character. Among other things it shows that the number of despatches has increased every year, and that the aver age for 10 leers has been 52,300, paying 91,400f1. ; that in 1859 the number was such as to give one of 23 words for every 51 inhabitants; that there are now 160 telegraphic offices, of which, however, only about 30 transmit private despatches ; and finally, that the towns which sent and re ceive the greatest number' of despatches are Vienna and Trieste, and after them, Venice, Pesth, Prague, and Verona. DREADFUL PIT ACCIDENT, AND Loss OF FOUR LiVES.—An inquest was held on Saturday, at Newbold, touching the death of four persons, who were killed on Fri day evening, in a colliery at Newbold, the property of Messrs. Beale and Co. The names of the deceased are Samuel Needham, John Needham (of Brampton), S. Collis (of Cutthorpe), and J. Howarth (of Barlow). They were being drawn out of the pit in a cage ; the banksman omitted to let down the machine which covers the pit mouth, and a jerk was occasioned which broke the chain, the cage falling to the bottom of the pit. Three of its occupants were killed instantaneously, and the fourth died shortly after wards. The inquest was adjourned to enable the Govern ment inspector to attend. The report of the intention of the Sultan of Turkey to send the Grand Vizier on a financial mission to Paris and London is officially denied. The &lief of its having been contemplated was, however, so general at Con stantinople that the present announcement may be inferred to be the result of a change of view rather than of the non authenticity of the original statement. Such change of view has; perhaps, been occasioned by an unsatisfactory turn of some preliminary correspondence on the subject. The question remains, what is' to bo done to extricate the Empire from its, embarrassment? Half•measures will no longer avail. • In the course of a few months heavy obliga tions must be provided for, or national bankruptcy must ensue. The assistance hitherto granted has been either too much or too little. Any new aid will but make matters worse, unless it is so complete as to leave no plea for a re newal' of embarrassment. Looking at the commerce of the country, its free-trade inclinations, and the actual insig nificance of its debt, there would be small difficulty, as far as monetary and fiscal principles aro concerned, in placing it in a thoroughly sound condition, but this would not suit the diplomatic intrigues of Europe, and until some new crisis shall have given the State an independent and definite position it must be the business of the poli tician only, and not of the financier, to suggest methods for her relief. GREAT LENGTH OF RAILWAY RAILS.—The Messrs. Barningham, of the Darlington Conti arks n rks, are at present engaged in rolling a large quantity of rails of unusual di mensions. They are 27 feet in..length, and their weight is .821 b. to: the ,Yard. Railway companies discover that by having strong rails and heavier engines large trains of minerals and goods are worked with less htbour, greater despatch, and at a smaller - cost than when lighter stock is used, one train doing ; the §arao PACRIAt of carriage as three: usually do.
