1110 - IV - EY IPIARKI.?T .D CITY 11' EMS'. CITY, Two o'CLocT. During the last few days more activity has pre vailed in the Foreign and Colonial Produce Mar kets. Only a limited business, however, has been done in tea, as the trade are waiting the result of the public sales on Wednesday next. Sugars have been in more demand and brought full rates. Coffee has continued in fair request, fine qualities of Plantation Ceylon realising an advance of 6d. to ls. per cwt. Large arrivals of new fruit have been announced, and holders have pressed sales which have caused a slight decline. Rice has been in ac tive demand at advanced quotations, and a mode rate business has been done in saltpetre and spices. Tallow has continued very buoyant, the enquiries for present and forward delivery having been on the increase, and prices have improved 6d. to 9d. per cwt. There is no new feature to record in connexion with the progress of monetary affairs ; the demand is limited, the supply abundant, and bills are easily negotiated on previous terms. The specie move ment continues favourable, the greater portion of the gold received from America and Australia being sent into the Bank of England. Money continues plentiful in all the principal money markets of Europe, the requirements of the mercantile community being very moderate. In the Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday busi ness continued rather quiet, and prices steady. The sales were estimated at about 8,000 bales. A sum of L 72,000 in gold was sent into the Bank of England yesterday. The traffic receipts of the Great Western Rail way of Canada, for the week ending the 31st ult., exhibited an increase of £1,731 compared with the same period in 1859. The transactions in the Market for Public Securities to-day have been rather limited, and they have not influenced prices to any material extent, Consols being 93 to 931 for money, and 931 4 for the account. This exhibits a decline of about per cent., several small sales having been made for transfer. India 5 per Cent. Enfaced Paper remains at 96 ; ditto 5 per Cent. at 1021 ; but the Bonds have receded to ss. dis., and Exche quer Bills are steady, at ls. to 4s. prem.

The grand contest for the Championship of the Thames between the above men took place this afternoon. The weather was very unfavourable, consequently there was not so many pre§ent as there would have been had the day been fine. White, who is twenty-five years of age, and stands 5 feet 10 inches in height, trained at Mr. Wilcox's, the White Hart, Barnes. Chambers came to London about a fortnight ago, and trained at Mrs. Heath's, the Star and Garter, Putney. Both men were in excellent condition. The start having beau effected, Loth men set vigorously to work amidst the cheers of their respective backers, but the superior rowing of the Newcastle Champion soon began to show itself, and before they had gone many yards he obtained a clear lead, and kept tt the remainder of the dis tance, defeating the London man for the second time by about twenty boats lengths. Betting at starting-3 to lon Chambers. To show the vast interest taken in this contest, we may state that a great many steamers were chartered for the occasion. Among them may be enumerated—Tom White's " special," tho Victoria (Capt. Bean) ; Geo. Drewitt and Blake, the Lalla Rookh (Capt. Barratt) ; Robert Bain, the celebrated oar and scull maker, of Lambeth, and C. Will cox, of Barnes, Citizen (Capt. J. Johnson) ; T. White and A. Ross, Bermondsey, Citizen P. (Capt. Turner). Capt. Sharplin of the Venus, took up the members of the London Rowing Club. Messrs. Garlick and Green chartered the Matrimony for Chambers and White. We understand that Harry Kelly, who was defeated by Chambers last year, is now prepared to make another match with his old opponent. This match, if made, will be looked forward to with great interest, as it is supposed by many good judges that Kelly held his opponent too cheap, which of course led to his defeat, thus alllowing the Champion ship of the Thames to be held by a Newcastle man.

THE MURDER AT STEPNEY. cab, but some person instantly knocked it out of his hand, and with great efforts the cab was driven away to the police-court amidst the loud execrations of the crowd, who continued following it fur a considerable distance, ADJOURNED INQUEST—Tnis DAY. The coroner's inquiry into the circumstances attending the death of Mrs. Mary Emsley, was proceeded with this morning, at the Railway Tavern, Grove-road, before Mr. Humphery, the coroner for East Middlesex. Mullins, the man in custody on suspicion of being the perpetrator of the crime, was brought to the Court about a quarter before ten, by Mr. Superintendent Howie, and was hissed and hooted by the persons who had assembled outside. On entering the Court ho was placed at the bottom of the corners table, and seemed little disturbed by the posi tion he occupied, and bore himself precisely in the same way as he did at the Police Court. Mr. Wontner prosecuted the case on behalf of the Crown, Mr. Young attended to watch the proceedings on the part of Mums, and Mr. Wood appeared for Mullins. On the coroner entering the room, Mr. Wood said—l attend for Mullins. I have just heard that he wishes for a private interview with me. The police have refused to grant the request of the prisoner. The Coroner—l have not the power to grant the request. He is brought hero in custody of the police, and in their hands I leave him. The first witness called was Joseph Briggs, who identified two telescope lenses as the property of the murdered woman. (These were found in the parcel referred to in the farmer evidence.) Elizabeth George, a charwoman, said—Before Mrs. Em sley's death she had disused silver, and there were only three iron spoons in the house. The silver spoons were wrapped up and put away in a drawer. The prisoner Mullins was in the house on Saturday, the 11th. The man called about buying the paper. She heard the de ceased talking with him that day about whitewashing some kitchens. She heard no other conversation. Mullins finished his work about six, and received his money from the deceased about seven o'clock. Dr. Samuel Gill —I examined the body of the deceased. 0 n the left ear and eyebrow there were elongated and lace rated wounds. The plasterer's hammer produced would inflict such wounds. The length of the wound over the eyebrow corresponded with the size of the sharp end of the hammer. The butt end of the hammer would produce the contused wounds on the back of deceased's head. Mr. Wood declined to ask the witness any question. Walter Thomas Emms—l reside in Barnesley-street. Last Saturday week I got up about half-past nine, as I was unwell. I went outside the house about half-past nine, but I did not go more than 9 or 10 feet from the door. That was the first time I had been outside the house that day. I went out again in the evening. I did not enter into conversation with any person that day. The first time I was on the brickfield on Sunday morning was between nine and ten. I generally go out to keep the field clear oir the boys. I saw Mr. Mackay. While I was talking to him the three officers came up to me. I was present when Sergeant Thomas brought a paper parcel. He asked what was in it. I said I did not know. It was afterwards opened, and then I began to get alarmed. I can't say.l saw him go into the shed. I was talking to the other constable. I had never seen the parcel or its con tents before. On my oath I never saw it before it was shown to me. By Mr. Wood—l was alarmed by Sergeant Thomas opening the parcel, and showing ma a bit of tape that be longed to a bag that she (Mrs. Emsley) used to carry her' money in. I was not in debt to Mrs. Emsley when she died. I was paying her off by the you. I don't consider I owed her anything, as the time of the payment agreed upon had not arrived. By the Coroner—l still believe the tape shown to me by the officer is the one used by the deceased to tie the money bag with. I knew the man Mullins. Since the death of Mrs. Emsley, I have not seen him in the brickfield with the exception of the Sunday morning. Susannah Emms—l am daughter of the last witness. Last Saturday week I was at home at my father's house. My father was unwell. I took him his breakfast into his bed-room. It was about a quarter to nine. He did not get up until about half au hour after. He did not go out for about an hour after that. That I know of my own knowledge, and swear it on my oath. I know the man Mullins. I have never seen him in the brickfield since Mrs. Emsley's death until the Bth of September, about half-past ten. He was looking down on tho ground as if he was in search for something. I observed him for about a quarter of an hour. By a Juror—l did not observe if he had anything with him. By the Coroner—l told several persons I had seen Mul lins, My aunt was one of the persons I told. Mullins, when I saw bum, was about three parts over the field from our house. By Mr. Wood—My father had told me that he had seen Mullins in the brickfield before Saturday week. I don't recollect going to the shed on the Sunday. I did not open the shed door for the police. The door was open. The hinges were broken, and the door would not shut at all. By Mr. Young—When I took up my father's breakfast he was in bed. Mr. Wood—My client instructs me the witness did open the door on Saturday. The Coroner—The fact must not be put in that way. You may examine the witnesses if you like. By Mr. Wood—l went into the shed on Saturday morn ing. It was attached to our house. I went to the copper. There is only one mode of entrance to the shed. By the Coroner—lt was between five end six o'clock that I went into the shed. Edwin Emma, brother of the last witness, said—l remem ber Mrs. Emsley's death. I have not seen Mullins in the brickfield since that. By Mr. Wood—l was not in the shed fighting with my sister on the Saturday in question. I was at work all that day at Bromley. Walter Thomas Emms, another and younger brother, said—l know Mullins. I saw him in front of our house on Friday before the police took father. It was in the afternoon. He was lying down on the grass with a handkerchief to his eyes at the back of the school yard. I saw him there about half an hour, and then I went to look after the pigs. When I went in I told my sister I had seen him. I saw him on Saturday—the next day— after dinner. He came up towards some sand in the field where they were putting down the drain pipes. He went back again. I was over against the fence minding my pigs in the field. I told the officers what I have now told the Coroner when they came on the Sunday. ' By a Juror—l was near enough to be sure Mullins was the man I saw. By Mr. Woods—l have seen Mullins before the time I have mentioned. It was about three weeks ago. Sergeant Thomas, of the detective force, said—The shed in which I found the parcel is accessible to Emma cannot enter it without coming out of his hens. "+ e posi tion of the stone was such that anybody coul put the par cel there without going into the shed. I have heard the last boy's evidence. He made substantially the same com munication to me on the Sunday. When Emms was taken he cried, and the boy said, " Oh, father, that man (Mullins) was here yesterday." The girl said the same. Walter John Emms, senior, recalled—ln the field to which refcrenca has been made some building operations are going on. The ground is being laid out for building purposes, and workmen were employed. There were about eight mon in the field on Saturday. They had not access to the ruined shed where the parcel was found—they had no right there. At this stage of the inquiry the room was cleared for consultation. At the expiration of half an hour the public were re-admitted. The Coroner said the jury were of opinion, and he agreed with them, that justice would be greatly furthered if the present inquiry was adjourned until Tuesday, the 16th of October at 10 o'clock. The inquiry was accordingly adjourned until that day. At the termination of the proceedings the crowd outside the Railway Tavern amounted to nearly 2,000 people many of them who had congregated outside declaring their intention of taking .!mmmary vengeance on the prisoner Mullins. The threatsgere so loud and audibly expressed that some alarm was created for the peace of the place. Mullins, who had been temporarily placed in one of the upper rooms, was then brought down to be taken to tho police-court in a cab. As soon as the vehicle drew up out sid ethe crowd surrounded it with the intention, as was loudly, expresed, of over it the instant the prisoner was placed inside; but this was frustrated by the strong body of police in attendance. Mullins appeared very much disinclined to face the peo ple, but the police forced him on, and he the in took off his 'At and slightly waived it as he wag aeAtcring Na 9 •~IEDICAL DEPARTMENT.

FATAL OCCURRENCE ON THE SOUTH-WESTERN RAlLwA.v.—Yesterday morning the body of a man was found on the South-Western Railway near the Wimbledon station. The deceased, who wore the uniform of the Royal Marines, no doubt had been killed by one of the trains— the supposition being that ho either wandered by mistake on the line after dark, or was in a state of intoxication. NEW POST-OFFICE AT THE LONDON AND NORTH WESTERN RAILWAY TERMINUS.—A room has been as signed for a post-office at the Euston terminus of the Loa. don and North-Western Railway to meet the increased requisitions of the passengers by the line, and i s s it uate d at the left hand side of the principal entrance to the hall, where clerks are regularly in attendance to superintend the collection and diatributio4 of letters aid Ow boning of stamps. THAMES POLICE COURT. As early as 10 o'clock this morning a vast number of per sons of both sexes assembled near the court for the purpose of obtaining admission to hear the investigation of the charge of murder preferred against two men named Emms and Mullins. At 11 o'clock Arbour-street East, opposite the court, was thronged, but admittance was denied to everyone except those upon actual business, and the police engaged in the various night charges. Tho crowd was in creasing when our reporter dispatched his messenger. The adjourned investigation will commence at two o'clock this afternoon, when Emms, who is out upon bail, and Mullins, will be arraigned on the charge of wilfully murdering Mary Elmsley, a widow, at No. 9, Grove-road, on or about the 13th of August laid. There is a general belief in the innocence of Emms, who is a very respectaile and inoffensive man, and has for many years maintained an irreproachable character. The antecedents of Mullins are very bad, and it is well-known that he was sentenced to six years' penal servitude for a serious rob bery committed on the South-Eastern Railway, where he was appointed to a situation after he left the K division of police. Ever since the murder was committed in the Grove road, he has been suspected of having perpetrated it, and several detectives of the II and K divisions were constantly Watching him. Ms clumsy attempt to implicate Emms by secreting the parcel containing a cheque received by the deceased the last day she was seen alive, and other articles, on the premises of Emms, is likely to recoil upon himself, and to insure his conviction for the foul deed. The inquiry is not likely to terminate at the police court this day. The inconvenience of having two inquiries—one before the coroner and one before the magistrate—on the same day must be manifest to every one. The same witnesses exa mined before the magistrates on Monday, the 10th inst., repeated their evidence the same day before the coroner and jury, and the witnesses to be examined this morning before the coroner will repeat their testimony before the magistrate this afternoon. There will be a third investigation before the grand jury in the event of one or both of the prisoners being committed for trial, and two sets of depositions will bo returned to the Central Criminal Court. This course of proceeding is not only productive of great trouble, inconvenience, and expense, but absolutely absurd and not likely to promote the ends of justice. As the coro. ner and jury first commenced the investigation and have examined a great number of witnesses, and as in the event of a committal the witnesses must go before the grand jury, all the inconvenience and expense would be avoided by the magistrate declining to enter upoa a second investigation, and allowing any prisoner against whom a verdict of wilful murder is returned to be arrested on the coroner's warrant, and forthwith committed to Newgate. A great mass of additional evidence will be brought for ward this day before the coroner and the magistrate, but there will be nothing in it to implicate Emms in the slight est degree, and there is no doubt Mullins Wended to make him the victim of a foul plot for the purpose of obtaining the reward of £3OO offered for the discovery of the person or persons who committed the murder. The vast crowds assembled near the court were, at 12 o'clock, discussing the probability of seeing Mullins enter the court, and giving vent to the strong feeling which pre vails against him. In this they were happily disap pointed, for he was brought into court by a piivate way, and shortly after two the examination was gone into. The same evidence as that given at the coroner's inquiry having been taken, Mullins was again remanded, and Emms liberated. C.E.2171ML CBLIIIYAL COURT.—(This Day.) OLD COURT. (Before the Common Sergeant.) Thomas Murphy, 25, who was convicted at the petty sessions of burglary, was brought up for sentence. It ap peared that the prisoner was a very desperate character, and offered a most violent resistance when arrested. A previous conviction of burglary, in 1846, was proved against the prisoner, for which he had undergone four years' im prisonment. The Common Sergeant having remarked on the very violent conduct of the prisoner, sentenced him to eight years' penal servitude. POLICE INTELLIGENCE--(THIS DAY. AIARLI3OROUGH-STREET. STEILIXG AND RECEIVING.—WiIIiam Reynolds, an errand-boy to Mr. Edward Davis, of 11, Great Newport street, was charged with stealing a quantity of horsehair, the property of his employer; and Frances Bern, servant to a marine-store dealer, of 20, Tower-street, Seven Dials, was charged with receiving the same. From the evidence of the prosecutor's foreman, it ap peared that horsehair having been missed for some time past, a watch was kept on the prisoner, and after he left the workshop that morning some horsehair which he had been employed packing was examined, and a quantity was missed. The foreman's brother had watched the prisoner on leaving the workshop, and on his return the foreman asked what he had done with the horsehair. At first the prisoner denied having taken any away, but on being told that he had been watched and asked what the woman had given him for it, he admitted taking some, and said the woman, the female prisoner, had given him 4d. for it A constable said the boy pointed out the female as the person he sold the horsehair to, and on asking her if she bought it she admitted doing so, She did not produce it, but her mistress afterwards brought it to the station. Mr. Davis said he had lost a large quantity of property, and he believed he had been robbing him for some time. Mr. Beadon said tho female must be discharged, and he was sorry the more guilty of the two was obliged to escape, and it was a source of great annoyance to him that ho had to send the feniale from the bar. The boy he should com mit for two months. THE ITALIAN KIA GDOM. A letter from Turin, dated Sept. 14, says :—A very fine battalion of the National Guards left us this morning for Bologna, where it is to garrison the new fortress. The inhabitants of this city are of all the Italian populations the most sedate in their demeanour; they accompanied the men on their departure to-day, though not so noisily as it would have been done at some other places in the Peninsula. But although not so much addicted to vociferation, they feel the more deeply and con stantly. They are never insolent in good fortune, nor cowardly and dejected in adversity; and it is these qualities that have given them their strength, that have saved our liberties, and that have accom plished the redemption of two-thirds of Italy. The people of Turin have, as it were innate, the senti ment of duty, and their King invariably finds them ready to make any sacrifice. In this respect Turin is beyond all doubt the best seat of government that the King could have. Well, this battalion filed off in the Piazza del Castello, before the Minister's palace, at seven this morning, when the Ministers of Foreign Affairs and the Minister of the Interior came out on the balcony to look at them. The soldiers, as they passed beneath, cried, " Long live the King 1" The Minister of the Interior then went to the station to see them off by the train, giving them some parting words of affectionate leave taking and good counsel. Monsignore Bella, famous on account of the pil- lage he ordered in the Marches, arrived here last night with his escort, having been made prisoner by General Cialdini, at Pesaro, in the midst of a Ger man regiment. He actually had arms on his per son, and he is a tall, robust, bold, and unmannerly priest. He showed great dread of the people while traversing the Emilia, and they on their part hissed and cursed him wherever they recognised him. On entering Piedmont he beeame calm, knowing very well that this people, bold in war, are not in the habit of insulting the defenceless. He also flat tered himself that nobody knew him here. To say the truth he is an embarrassing prisoner, for although he was armed when taken, he can hardly be looked upon as strict l y a prisoner of war, and I think he will have to be sent backust to the I had Pope, The Count della Min erva, j as a o n v t e i r c n i : pated, was not perm itted b y the Papal G ment to enter Rose. He is expected back to-day with a pontifical despatch he received at Civita Vecchia. THE GREAT EASTERN. The g rcat ship WaS on Sunday at 6 p.m. successfully placed on the gridiron, for purpose of having her bottom cleaned. The place is adapted for the purpose, and no difficulty what ever was experienced, not more so than if she had been a 500-ton ship.

The usual characteristics of a settling day were presented in the thronged yard and crowded rooms. Business was almost exclusively confined to the adjustment of balances on the D ncaster accounts, and the brief intervals which elapsed between paying and receiving were occupied by a discussion of the many extraordinary incidents which marked the proceedings at Doncaster. The members of the ring certainly experienoed no hard time last week, for a large majority of the races, and especially those on the Tuesday and the Friday, were decided in their favour, whilst many bookmakers were large winners on the St. Leger. The public generally, although' entertaining a high opinion of St. Albans's racing merit, were " stalled off from backing him by the causes which led to his withdrawal from the Derby, and by the ominous reports of his infirmity which were from time to time circulated. These reports were certainly founded on truth, for after the severe work which the horse had undergone in the be ginning of the year to enable him to win the Metropolitan Stakes and Chester Cup--and for those events it was con fessed that he went through an unprecedentedly severe preparation—it was found necessary to throw him up in conse quence of the enlargement of the inside ligament of the off fore leg. To those acquainted with the difficulties which beset his trainer, the condition of the horse was astonish ing, whilst it attested the careful management and skil ful treatment under which the horse had been placed. Early in the season St. Albans was tried by a trainer who seldom commits an error of judgment; he nevertheless, reeurned the horse to Lord Ailesbury with a note assuring him that ho would find in St. Albans a handsome hack, but an animal scarcely capable of winning a £5O plate. Amongst the fartunate members of the ring who adhered to St. Albans through good and through evil report, may be mentioned Messrs. F. Swindells, E. Green, Pearcy, Steele, and Johnson. Of the gentlemen sportsmen who threw in for good stakes are Mr. George Payne, Mr. Greville, and Lord Howard. The Marquis of Ailesbury, it is said, wins little more than the stakes, £4,075. Doncaster has long been remarkable for the " sensa- tions" created by the in and out running of the St. Leger competitors, and this year the surprises occasioned in this respect have been more astounding than ever. On the Friday the running of the Wednesday was entirely upset. For the Doncaster Stakes St . Albans, who carried IMb. extra, and the Wizard 51b. extra, were beaten in the com monest of canters by Cape Flyaway, who hal been scratched for the St. Leger because his " stable" deemed the Wizard a more trustworthy champion. And yet he galloped away with the utmost ease from both the Wizard and the Leger victor. SabreUr, whose running for the St. Leger induced the public to believe that he could not stay, won the Cup, two miles and a half, beating Thormanby by three lengths, both these horses being many lengths in ad i-ance of High Treason, who ran second to St. Albans on Wednesday. And again on Friday both the Wizard and High Treason were compelled to succumb to Buccaneer, who was beaten so far for the St. Leger that he did not pass the post. The weights for the Cesarewitch and Cambridgeshire were circulated in the room, and they were eagerly perused and criticised. The handicaps created general satisfaction, for on a hasty examination they appeared framed with no ordinary care and discrimination. Quite late in the after noon the following transactions took place on the Cesare witch : CESAREWITCH STAKES. 25 to 1 agst Optimist (taken) 30 to 1 agst Golden Pippen (taken) 33 to 1 agst Telegram (taken) 33 to 1 agst Newcastle (taken) 40 to 1 agst Bevis (taken) 40 to 1 agst Claire (taken) 40 to 1 agst Industrious (taken) 40 to 1 agst Plumper (taken) 40 to 1 agst Lanchester (taken) 40 to 1 agst Wildgrave (taken) 50 to 1 agst Dann (taken) 50 to 1 agst Nucleus (taken) BETTING AT MANCHESTER, MONDAY. The principal business was settling on the past week's events, which so far as we could perceive was very satis factory. Upon the whole we think the bookmakers had the worst of it. There was a little done upon the Cesarewitch, but as the weights were expected to be made public to morrow (this day), the general disposition seemed to be to wait until then before operating to any great extent. — Closing prices : CESAKEWITeII STAKES. 20 to 1 agst Optimist (taken) 40 to 1 agst Schism (taken) 50 to 1 agst Industrious (taken) 50 to 1 agst Lanchester (taken) 50 to 1 agst Paleface (taken) 66 to 1 agst Starke (taken) 66 to 1 agst Sutherland (taken) CHESTERFIELD MEETING-MONDAY.

Sir, — Perceiving that on one of your bills my name is mentioned in union with that of my late patient, Mr. Lachfield, I beg leave to confirm his testimony, and state the great benefit derived by the use of your excellent herbaceous Eye Snuff in his case, which was one of obstinate chronic ophthalmia, accompanied by opacity of the cornea, and a varicose state of the conjunctional vessels. His case was the first under my notice in which the preparation was used; but being struck by the advantageous results , I resolv ed to la y aside preju dice, and advise its use in some cases in my practice at this Hosrital. The benefit was great, and has led me still fur ther to recOraDlCl l 4 Oeclient gerYaut , `1; ORANGE PitOC.ESSIONS. BY the last advises from Canad a we learn that the tiovernor•General and the Duke of Newcastle have most wisely and properly intimated to the inhabitants of Kingston and Toronto that " the Prince of Wales will take no part in any proces sion where party colours are worn, or party tunes are played." Those who are acquainted with the two divisions of the province know that tower Canada is essentially a Roman Catho lie country, whilst Upper Canada is inhabited by a population composed of Protestants of every shade of opinion, with the addition of some consi derable number of Irish, who of course belong to the Romish faith. In Lower Canada, where the property of the Church and the exercise of the Roman Catholic religion were guaranteed by the Treaty of 1753, the habitans have the benefit of a 1 wealthy and well-organised establishment ; end.if any disputes or differences ever occur, they genel rally are to ;lie attributed to the jealousy or per haps stronger feelings, with which the French ecclesiastics regar d th e Maynooth priests who find their way into the province. If the French Ca nadians have not been very warm or devoted in their expressions of loyalty, they at least have had the good taste to remain in the background, and to the Roman Catholicpolicydecent Church set a better and more dignified exa mpl a e, n byat t tend l inghis Royal Highness a dutiful with a dignified address, as the F charge t the i o only wh r i e c n l ichtheyin habitants received a gracious answe r . i But which has been insinuated against habitants of Quebec and Montreal amounts to this— that certain members of the Legislature have ab stained frots, waiting upon the Prince, and that the French population generally has taken little or no part in the public rejoicings, these matters we think, may be safely dismissed as exhibitions of bad breeding and bad taste, to which further notice would only attach that importance which at pre sent is altogether wanting Canada, like the neigh bouring Republic, appears to be greatly addicted to societies, some of which are charitable, some na tional, some religious, and some political. Jean Baptiste has the great society of `.he Jesuits to guide and instruct him ; the English, S;etch,and Irish have respectively their St. George's, At. Andrew's, and St. Patrick's societies, which promote nationality, bene volence, and goodfeasting, and the ultra Protestant party in Upper Canada have imported and Astained that political and religious organisation which, under the name of Orangeism, has for year de stroyed the peace and tranquillity of Ireland. In the United States the native Americans have esta blished an association which, under the name of the "Know-Nothings,"is intended to oppose the growing political influence of the Roman Catholic Irish, who, unlike other foreign immigrants, hang about the great towns and cities, and often by their votes turn the fate of an election, in which in reality they ought to have no concern. The Orange Society in Canada would have very much the same object if the same necessity existed. In the winter of 1838, at the time of the rebellion, the Protestants of Upper Canada turned out to a man, and behaved with the greatest gallantry and success. But secret oaths, party processions, party banners, and purty tunes are not requisite to make individuals loyal. In country where the utmost amount of liberty con sistent with the maintenance of order exists, such a society as that which now desires to do honour to the Prince of Wales, by insulting a largo class of its fellow-subjects, ought to beput down'by thelaw. It is cnrious to observe that one of the last Acts passed by the Imperial Parliament before the pro rogation was the Act to prohibit the use and exhi bition of party emblems in Ireland, The provincial Administration, if it wishes to remove from Canada a constant source of irritation and offence, will adopt the statute of the British Parliament, and place all party banners and processions under the ban of the law. In Ireland the Orange system ought no more to be excused than the Ribbon con spiracy which asserts that "wild justice of revenge" with which the' devilish deeds" of agrarian mur der in that country have too frequently been justified. In Canada there can exist no pretence, no excuse for these secret societies. The Prince of Wales has done well in having firmly refused to give the slightest countenance and sanction to processions which would be of an exclusive and offensive, if not of an illegal, character. We hope that the good sense of the general Canadian people will revolt from the indecency and folly which have marked the conduct of the Orangemen of King ston and Toronto. We regret that any trouble should have occurred to detract from a visit which hitherto has been one complete triumph; but no one can for a moment doubt that the course pursued by his Royal Highness is not only consistent with his own dignity, but one which is sure to conduce ,o the best and most permanent interests of Canada. ./trorn ing Post. TILE FRENCH 111ARKETS. The telegraph has supplied us with the prices of ,he provincial corn markets held yesterday : Aurus.—A small market. A rise of 50c. the hectolitre on wheat of the second and third quality. Prices 18f. to 24f. the hectolitre. CHARTRES.--A dull market. A fall of 30c. the hecto litre on wheat. Business was more brisk towards the close of the market. Oats offered at a reduction of 20c. the hec tolitre. MARSEILLE3.—Market quiet. African wheat is quoted at 33f. the measure of 160 litres for the end of the year. Marianopolis 31f. 50c. for the first four months of 1861. Irka 32f. 25c. for immediate delivery. METz.—There were ON hectolitres of wheat sold for de- livery at an average of 25f. 45c. the 100 kilogrammes. Trade in general dull this week. The Courrier de la Gironde publlishes the text of a petition addressed to the Minister of Agriculture and Commerce by the members of the Council of the Association for Commercial Reform, praying for the abolition of the sliding scale and for free trade in corn. At the head of the list stand the names of M. Dollfas, member of the Chamber of Commerce of Mulhausen, and President of the Association M. Adam, President of the Chamber of Commerce of Boulogne; M. Arles Dufour, member of the Chamber of Commerce of Lyons ; M. Pastre, Pre sident of the Chamber of Commerce of Marseilles, and other gentlemen distinguished in co mmercial pursuits.

The Nord has not been fortunate of late.

It seems to be of opinion hat the next w orse thi ng t o making a mistake is to admit it. "False, but infallible," should be its motto. THE SARDINIAN NAVY.—A letter from Genoa, in the Gazette de France, asserts that the Sardinian navy is now the first in Europe, after those of England and France. Piedmont, it says, had already 30 ships of war. Garibaldi had annexed twice as many at Naples, ~among them two line-of-battle ships, the Vesuv io and the Me name. The Garibaldian navy, in the waters of Sicily, had eight or ten steamers—English, American, and others — given, bought, or captured. Besides this, the letter says that Piedmont, not expecting so large an accession of naval force, had made contracts in England for eight large steamers, two of which are already delivered, and also for an equal number of transports. All these things con sideren, the Gazette de France reckons the Sardinian navy as consisting, or soon to consist, of nearly 140 men-of-war. In thi3 there is probably some exaggeration. The Gazette, which is now in the 230th year of its existence, is not exempt from some of the weaknesses of extreme age, and its state ments in general are to be viewed with suspicion, and sifted before acceptance. F ATA L ACCIDENT ON THE RIVER.—On Sunday,. m orning, shortly after 12 o'clock , a y oun g man about 2 !. years of age, name unknown, was r o win g on the river sm all skiff belonging to Mr. Tomli nson, of Hung e lier of When near Blackfriars-bridge he rowed athwart tt .- pro barges, known as Stratton's Ro ads, and was ini3labeats cipitated into the water.
