In Caubul, the focus of Affghan, Persian and Rus sian intrigues, an attempt has been made to enlist Dost Mahomed in another plot against the British. The agent in this scheme had come from Persia, but the old Dost was too wary to expose himself main to the chances of a conflict with the British, particularly after their recent successes at Lahore. His son, the notorious Akbar Khan, was not pleased with the pacific policy of his father, and he was eager to have an opportunity of regaining poisession of Peshawur and even of Cashmere. Intrigues and counterplots were in full play at Caubul. In the newly-acquired provinces of Jullunder and the Doab of the Beas, the British troops have, during six months, been healthy. The fertility of these dis tricts is very great, and the inhabitants appear de lighted at the prospect of being allowed to carry on their industry and to collect its product, secure of being treated with justice by the British authorities, and not with tyrannous exaction such as their former Seikh rulers practised. There was a slight disturbance in the Cuddapah collectorate of the Madras Presidency, but it was speedily suppressed. Its leader, Nlirsima Reddy, was hotly pursued by the polif,le, and would not be long at large. An attempt was made by the British Resident at the Nizam's Court to arrange the pecuniary affairs of that country. Some refractory landholderS have been compelled to give accounts of their demands, and the lawless mercenaries, who have proved hitherto to be such a curse to that state, have been disbanded or ex pelled from the Nizam's dominions. The decision of the British Government to introduce good order into the Nizam's finances will, it is to be hoped, produce the best results. The conquest of the Island of Bally, which is now attempted by the Dutch, continues to be the source of much observation at Singapore. It appears to have the tacit assent of the British Government ; for otherwise the treaty of 1824 is evidently opposed to the extension of the Dutch territory in the eastern islands. CLERKENWELL.—(THIS DAY.) Joseph Clayton was charged with using threats of a Very violent nature towards Mr. H. Benjamin, and as saulting his wife. From the evidence of Mr. Benjamin it appeared, that ha was the foreman of a jury before which the prisoner Was convicted at the Old Bpiley, when he was sentenced to three months' imprisonment; and since his release he has been in the habit of using the most ferocious threats towards Mr. Benjamin ; and a like system of annoyance bas been followed by a number of the prisoner's com panions, from the neighbourhood of Field-lane, West court, and Saffron -hill. This morning he entered Mr. Benjamin's shop, when he said to him " You are the who gave me three months, but I will have it cut of you," The prosecutor then attempted to call a con stable, but the prisoner swore he should not leave the shop until he gave him 4d. for a pot of beer ; and Mrs. Benjamin entering the shop at the moment he ran at her and struck her two or three violent blows on the breast. A constable arriving, he was then given into custody. The evidence of four constables, whose united efforts were required to tie the prisoner on a stretcher before they could convey him to the station-house, showed that he had used the most excessive and brutal violence to wards them, kicking and biting like a maniac. Mr. Comm said there were few offences that he should feel more inclined to punish with se ver i ty t h an that of att empt i ng to threaten or intimidate a juror. He should sentence the prisoner to a a of 54 or default b e i mpr i soned with hard labour fine months ; for for two for the assault on the police he should commit him, with out fine, for one month with hard labour; and at the expiration of those two terms of imprisonment he must find bail to be of good behaviour for, three months. MARKET INTELLIGENCE BREAD RIOT IN PARIS. (From Galignani's Messenger.) A serious disturbance took place on Thunday night in the Faubourg St. Antoine, occasioned by an augmenta tion (of 4 centimes) in the price of the 41b. loaf. The following particulars have reached us from an eye-wit ness. The inhabitants of the Rue du Faubourg St. An toine and adjacent streets, chiefly inhabited by cabinet makers, white-smiths, &c., assembled in considerable numbers at seven o'clock yesterday evening, and pro ceeded to the bakers' shops in the vicinity, in order to lay in provisions of bread, in consequence of tho rise in price commencing this morning. The quantity left after the sale of the day was soon disposed of, and the crowd increasing became riotous, and broke the shop fronts and several of the gas lamps. This scene continued for some time, and about halt-past nine the mob commenced rais ing a barricade across the Rue du Faubourg St. Antoine, with the stones of the Rue Lenoir, which they unpaved with incredible celerity. The Horse Municipal Guard soon afterwards arrived, anti rode among the crowds several times, but they always opened their masses and gave them free passage, closing immediately behind them. A battalion of the 48th Foot, headed by its Colonel, afterwards came to the spot. They were re ceived with cries of " Vive la Ligne I" and the tumult having lasted until near midnight, the populace began gradually to disperse, and the streets became compara tively quiet. The rioters did not, however, separate without making an appointment for rendezvous at the same quarter this evening. The bakers having been prevented baking in the night, carts loaded with bread this morning arrived from all quarters, and the bread they contained was sold in the street. (From the Landon New Price Current of October 2.) SUGAR.—To - day the market presented a very heavy ap pearance for all grey, brown, and common yellow kinds of West India Sugar, and rather lower rates were taken, mak ing the fall for the week is per cwt; but bright grocery sorts were sold to a fair extent, and fetched prices equal to these of Friday last, but not above. Holders of all inferior Sugars, both Colonial and Foreign, are anxious sellers. REFINED.—To - day the demand was limited for Refined goods for home consumption ; the value of brown lumps ac cording to quality is 62s to 63s 6d, and standard lumps 64s to 64s 6d per cwt. There are sellers of Bonded Crushed Sugar at 33s 3d for first quality, but there are few buyers to be met with. MAunmus.—This afternoon the quantity of Mauritius Sugar offered at auction was large and amounted to 10,114 bags; good and fine yellow sorts met with attention and brought full rates, but other' kinds went off heavily • grey and the low and middling kinds of yellow at a fall of Is, and on brown sorts the decline was is 6d to 2s per cwt—nearly the whole, however, sold.

On Tuesday 2,800 bags will be offered at auction. FOREIGN.—This afternoon at public sale 30 cases 1,592 bags of Pernambuco Sugar, duty paid, were offered, and taken in at the former value, middling yellow at 45s to 465, low 43s 6d, good and "fine brown 42s to 42s 6d, middling 41s, and washed 435. Privately little business was done in any sort. . _ __ ______ n. ALARMING FlRE.—Yesterday morning, Tirle Place, the seat of Viscount Gage narrowly escaped being COM. pletely destroyed. At about four o'clock the in were alarm e d' b y a cry of " Fire !" which 'Hates , b:i the strenuous effort s , t h ey succeeded after a few hou most rs, in e xtinguishing, with only the loss of two or three rooms.

The fire originated (by what means no one is able to discover) in the Viscountess Gage's bedroom. D.LEADFUL MURDER AND SUICIDE..---A dreadful murder of a woman and child, with the suicide of the p e rpetrator of the d ee d, too;c place oa Wed nes d ay morn ing, at Eltham, Kent, The coroner lost no time in issuing his warrant for summoning :a jury, and early in the afternoon the inquiry was gone into, by which it appeared that Sharruck Rudd Bragg, a brie Mayer, had murdered his wife and child, by beating them over the temples with a hammer, and afterwards cut his own throat. When the deed became known the man was dead, but the woman and child, though totally senseless, still breathed. The child, V.ged five years, died about two hours after the discoiery was made; but the woman lingered till about len o'clock, when death put a period to her existence. When discovered, an infant, aged four months, - was found by the side of the woman, un injured. Prom the evidence adduced, no doubt could exist ort the question as to the man at the time being in sane, Paid verdicts to that effect were accordingly , ', re- AWFULLY SUDDEN DEATH.—Yesterday morning kr.

Several transports with detachments of her Ma jesty's Bth Regiment of Infantry, and of the 10th Regiment of Hussars, had arrived in Bombay, but there were apprehensions entertained respecting others, and, in particular, relative to the Anne Armstrong, with a portion of the Bth Regiment on board. She was reported to be the quickest sailer of the transports, yet she had not arrived when the steamer left Bombay. The weather during the month of August was fine, and, fortunately enough for the troops arriving frail Europe, who were obliged to march to refinah. It ought to be impressed on the memories of the military authorities at the Horse Guards that the practice of having soldiers to arrive in India during the rainy season is to be deprecated, as endangering the lives of hundreds by exposure to violent changes of tern peratutz. COME.—This afternoon there was no public sale of Coffee, but 3,400 bags of Ceylon, 166 casks 20 barrels of Ja. maica are declared. By private treaty there was little business done in any sort, but good ordinary pale Native Ceylon was not to be obtained ander 39s per cwt. Tna.—Holders of Congou are unwilling to further reduce their prices, although the trade act with caution, and do not take more than their wants compel them. Pouchong is wanted, and the supply being small, holders are enabled to obtain 4id to 6fei for low to middling, and 7d to 10d for good to fine. • Tvrankay has met with little attention. For Scented Orange Pekoe there are not many buyers, although good to fine can be obtained at is 9d to 2s, and plain at 9d to 10d. Of Hyson several parcels have been sold in consequence of merchants further reducing their prices. In Gunpowder there has been little passing, and prices are lowering. For Imperial the market has a dull ap pearance. The consumption is going on satisfactorily, and the trade in town or country are not over supplied, but the stock held by importers is immense, and far exceeds that of last year. Merchants are complaining of the loss they ex perience on the importation of the common kinds of black and green tea. FRUIT.—This afternoon at public sale 260 boxes of new damaged Valentia Raisins were sold at 39s to 43s 6d ; 50 boxes 170 half ditto of old sound sold at 30s; 1,328 boxes 1,094 hf do new Muscatels in layers 525, damaged at 42s to 49s ;190 boxes of New Jordon Almonds, taken in at 8115 s to 91 for sound, and the damaged at 81; 248 pkgs of new Patras Currants, sound nearly all taken in, butts 565, Carateels 575, but damaged sold at 53s to 553; 1,970 pkgs Imperial French Plums were all withdrawn; 90 pkgs of Prunes taken in half brls at 80s, 'Aland W, ditto 82s. SPICES.—For Nutmegs the demand has been less active, and the market having been more freely supplied, prices have slightly given way. Mace is still wanted, and nearly fetch late rates; 36 chests at auction were sold. Pimento has been in excellent request. Black Pepper is not offered at any further decline, and the market has been less freely supplied; but there has been only a limited business transacted privately. Several parties are surprised that the demand is not husker, as prices are low compared with those of former seasons, and the stock not large. White has met with little attention, and prices continue to rule low. Cassia Lignea is wanted, and in consequence of the small supply prices are rising. Cloves have been sparingly dealt in, but lower rates are not taken. For Jamaica Ginger prices ruling low occasions the demand to be good, and the parcels disposed of were at rather hi -her rates • the better qualities being the most in request. East In.? a and African brought stiffer rates, and a fair business has ,:leen transacted privately .

COCOA. —The demand has fallen off for West India; and the market having been more libe r a ll y su pp lied, a decline in prices of la to 2s per cwt has taken place. Of Grenada 499 bags were offered at auction, and a part only sold. Foreign has met with little attention. SAGO is wanted, but at present no advance in the value has taken place. For Tapioca prices remain low, and the supply yet exceeds the demapd, PUGILISM. THE CIIAMPIONSHIP.—Perry, the Tipton Slasher, has ad dressed a letter, challenging Caunt to a pugilistic tournament for 2001. aside, and adds that Bendigo will be in town next intention of with the belt, which he has announced his of presenting to the winner, should there be a contest, or to that man who shall be ready to meet all corners, without being able to find a customer. Caunt Is understood to sti pulate that the stake should be 3001. a-side, and that the affair shall come off upon a stage. In reply. it is urged, that it was formally settled, some years since, that the holder of the title of Champion should be compelled to do battle for the minimum stake of 200/., or forfeit his claim to be so called ; and furthermore, that to propose a stage at the present day is a palpable evasion of the encounter, as its con struction would be a signal of defiance to the magistrates in any county where its fixture took place. These seem to be be valid objections, and time will shortly show which of the pugilistic candidates is in earnest in his proposal of a match. GRAND CASINO AT THE ADELAIDE GALLERY, STRAND.—M. Laurent, who first gave the public a taste for Promenade Concerts, has converted the above well known establishment into a grand Casino, which will be opened for the winter season on Monday next, in a style of splendour that eclipses anything of the kind ever at tempted in England. The building has been entirely re-modelled, under the direction of Mr. J. Breckell, the theatrical machinist, the various scientific specimens and articles of vertu have been removed, and the spacious hall now forms a grand salle de danse, which has been most superbly decorated by Mr. Hurwitz, and ether skilful artists, the ornaments being designed in Paris. Some beautiful statues,:by Brucciani, are tastefully arranged in the orchestra, the vestibule, and other parts of the building, while the walls of the lower part of the grand hall are covered with plate glass, orna mented with wreaths of laurel, evergreens, and bou quets of artificial flowers, which present a coup d'eeil the most brilliant. Magnificent beaufets have also been fitted up, where refreshments of the most recherche description will be served. It is the intention of the pro prietor to give a series of soirees musicales, for which a band of upwards of fifty talented performers have been engaged, under the direction of M. Laurent, jun. The solo performers include Messrs. ratey (leader), Grattan Cooke, Carte, Patton, Winterbottom, Maycock, J. Streather, Stanton Jones, Shargool, Pratten, Winter bottom, jun., Catchpole, Range, and Sedgwiek. Among the vocal performers engaged, are Mr. J. W. Sharp, and Mr. Binge (from Vauxhall Gardens), Mrs. J. Roe, and Miss Clairton. M. Laurent, in order to gratify the taste of the votaries of Terpsichore } will give each evening, after the concert, a " B a l P ar e D'Hi ver ," under the di rettlion of six masters of ceremony.

The evidence adduced on the former occasions have, from time to time, appeared in our columns. The unfortunate affair had excited much interest, in conse quence of the respectable connexions of the parties im ',heated. Yesterday several hours were occupied in examining witnesses, who identified those of the party 1 who had beaten the d ecease d. The Coroner summed up at great length. The jury, after a short deliberation, returned a verdict of manslaughter against Richard Heywood, Henry Boddy, and William Branch, and the Coroner issued his warrant for their apprehension and AEROSTATION EXTRAOREINART.—Yesterday even ing being the last night of the season at Cremorne Gardens, the proprietor, Mr. Ellis, engaged the " Royal Nassau" balloon for the occasion. As the gas could not be provided by the Imperial Gas Company, who required three days' notice, the proprietor applied to the London Gas Company, at Vauxhall, to fill the balloon with gas. Their consent having been obtained, about twelve o'clock it was conveyed there, and in the course of three hours in the car), taken it had sufficient gas to secure its ascent. It was then, g arold steamers, for by means of ropes (Mr. C.

In consequence of this dei;:.7- an ascent did not occur till about half past six o'clock, at wi ' - ;:_eh time there were eight gentlemen in the car, the balloon, from bein g saturated with wet, not being able to sustain any more. The aerial machine arose during a heavy shower of rain, in a north-easterly direction, and was soon out of sight.

The business of nations is like the business of indi viduals ; it requires the employoaent of stipendiaries to carry it on for the good of the master and his family. That is the only object and end of management, whether of a family or of a nation.—Hampden's History of the Arrangements could easily be adopted for having the troops to arrive there during the dry season. Some of the Bth Regiment were obliged on their march to Poonah to seek for dry spots on the hills, in order to Fitch their tents and to sleep. W understand that the dispatches for Government and the Hon. the East India Company were deli vered at the respective offices before daylight this morning. COMMERCIAL IN THE BOMBAY MARKET. (From the Chamber of Commerce Overland Price Curi-ent.) B O MBAY, AUG. 27. — The commercial sea son is noNv fairly re-opened, but hitherto the business. el one has been limited, few of the traders from the interior having as yet entered the market, ar.d the local dealers ha ving only purchased such goods as it is imagined wlll be re quired by these latter when they make their appearance. There has been but little rain since our last, and the monsoon (save in some districts of Guzerat, which have suffered from excessive rain) has proved very favourable to the agriculturist. By next mail, when the communi cation with the coast will be thoroughly open, we May probably be enabled to report an extension of transac tions. Meanwhile the rate of exchange on England has gradually fallen, and this has of course rendered it neces sary for holders to ask higher prices. The scarcity of money is no longer felt, and the rates of discount charged by the banks have been lowered. Metals—There has been a slight improvement in the prices of copper, but the transactions have not been large, holders generally being indisposed to sell at the current rates. We are apprised of sales of, 440 cwt sheathing at 551 rupees, and 100 cwt. braziers' at 55 rupees. In iron there have been some operations, and both Swedish and British bar are in request, though the advance in prices has as yet been but slight. Besides the above, we hear of some sales of Swedish bar at 50r. 5a., and British at 311 r. ver candy. tozethe MOLASSES.—The value of West India is 21s to 24.4, but there has been only a limited business transacted. Bally nal Treacle has been in good demand at 21s 6d to 225. RlCE.—Bengal is wanted, and in consequence of the small supply at market, a further improvement in prices has taken place, many parcels having been disposed of privately. At auction the sound of 200 bags was taken in at 21s for good white, but the damaged sold at 17s to 19s. There are buyers under these rates, the consumption is going on satisfactorily. Madras has been much sought after, and 16s to 17s 6d are the rates offered, but the supply is scanty. There are buyers of Java at 18s to 21s, but few parcels are to be had. Cleaned has been largely dealt in. Spanish and Italian white are wanted. Prices are expected to be much higher for all sorts of Rice, owing to the large quantity that will be required for many months. SALTPETRE.—There are sellers of Rough by private con-. tract rather under previous rates, still few purchases have been made by exporters and the home trade. On English Refined the demand bas been good at 29s 6d to 30s, but there is more desire to sell thereat. Nitrate of Soda can be obtained at 16s to 16s 6d per cwt, but little business has been done. Oils.—ln Seal Oil large purchases have been made this week, principally by the home trade, and further advanced rates are gi►en. Holders evince much firmness, and some will not sell at present prices; the stock not being heavy, and the consumption going on satisfactorily. For Cod, reduced rates having been taken occasioned the demand to be brisker. No further advance has occurred in the value of Southern, but the demand has been good, and the supply at market is still small. In Sperm Oil a good business has been transacted, but holders are inclined to realise, as there is a fair stock. The arrivals of Fish Oili have increased since our last report. No further improve. ment has taken place in the value of Linseed Oil, as there is a large quantity being produced. Rape Seed Oil has been in excellent demand, and prices have advanced.- There has been a good business transacted in Palm, and prices rule firm. For Olive the market has a firm appear ance, large purchases have been made. In American Lard Oil several sales have been made at 361 to 401. There has been no public sale of any kind of Oil. TALLow.—This afternoon at public sale 59 casks of New South Wales sold, good and fine 43s 3d to 465, low and mid 40s to 42s 6d, very low soft 338 9d; 14 casks of East India, good and fine 47a 6d to 48s 9d ; 29 casks of Cape 48s Gd to 49s 6d for good and fine ; 50 casks of nrst sort new Peters burgh yellow Candle 45s to 45s 3d; 200 casks of stranded Petersburgh, town melted, 45s 9d to 465. Holl6.—Prices rulinglow, occasions the demand to be good ; but there is a large quantity on offer, and a desire is mani fested to realise. TusparmNE—Prices continue rapidly to advance ; the supply being small, and the demand extensive. ELECTION OF LORD MAYOR. CLOSE OF THE FOURTH DAY'S POLL. The cause of Alderman Wood, or rather that of the independence of the Livery of London, progresses as well as its best wishers could hope for or expect. At three o'clock yesterday the fourth day's poll closed, and before halt-past three the following was declared by the Sheriff to be the state of the poll: Mr. Alderman Wood Sir George Carr01l Mr. Alderman Hooper 216 Mr. Alderman Farncomb. 1 Mr. Alderman Moon 1 We need not again repeat the statement of yesterday, that the two last announcements were received with much laughter. In the course of the interval, between the closing of the poll and the announcement of the state of it, jests among . the members of the Livery were at a premium. Among them was one, for which we take some little credit to ourselves : one of the Livery seeing Mr. Carroll (we presume the son of Sir George, on the hustings), exclaimed, " Well, Mr. Carroll, have you seen The Sun newspaper of yesterday? because there is something there for you to mark, learn, and inwardly digest I—(Laughter.) The state of the poll having been announced, Mr. Alderman WOOD came forward amid tremendous cheering to address the Livery. It was not his purpose to detain them for any length of time. The state of the poll demonstrated the steady progress that was being made on his behalf, , and showed the good feeling that was entertained on his behalf by the Livery.—(Hear, and cheers.) For himself, he returned them his most sincere thanks for the exertions they had made in his behalf. He was gratified beyond all measure at the way in which they had supported him.—(Cries of " We are determined to do so.') The contest was peculiarly that of the Livery, and he was happy to see that a liveliness had been thrown about their proceedings that day which had relieved the dull tedium of a slow election.— (Cheers.) He begged of them not to forget to -morrow morning, at nine oclock ; and he was sure he need not request of the Livery to continue their exer tions, and augment the splendid maj orit y that appeared that day in his behalf.—(Cheers.) Between himself and those who were associated with him on the poll no unkind feeling existed, and he was sure there never would--(Cheers)—fur himself he had only to say, that he should be the last to disturb it.—(Cheers.) Mr. ENGLISH (the editor of the Mining Journal, as we understood) then came forward to address the Livery ; he was met with considerable confusion, when Mr. flour stated that it was the wish of Mr. English to explain away an injury that he had unintentionally inflicted, some time ago. on Alderman Wood. Mr. ENGLISH said that be had nothing to retreat, but something to explain. It had been re ported, be knew, in particular quarters, that as far as himself and Mr. Aldermas Wood were con cerned, a Compromise had taken place between them. He begged most unequivocally to state 'that such a report was totally without foundation—that I he had not seen Mr. Alderman Wood since the statement he made some time ago till the day previous, and that no communications bad passed between them.—(Cheers.) Mr. HOLT was delighted to see the Livery adopting the course they were now pursuing.—(Cheers.) They were showing to the world and their fellow-citizens that they were alive to their rights, that they were deter mined to show their abhorrence of injustice, and give to Alderman Wood the only reward in their power—the high post of the chief magistrate of the first city in the world.—(Cheers.) The Hall was then adjourned till this morning at nine o'clock. ARMAGH, COLERAINE, and PORT •RUSH RAILWAY. A meeting of the shareholders was held yesterday, at the London Tavern, at the instance of five of the scrip holders, to determine on the propriety of dissolving the Company. Mr. Griffin C. Galt was called to the chair. The SECRETARY read the requisition of the scrip holders and the advertisement convening the meeting. Mr. CREED wished to know why this meeting had not been called prior to that which was convened to de termine on amalgamation with another company ? The CHAIRMAN said, because the requisition calling this meeting had not been sent in before that. Messrs. dames Stride, William Palmer, and Thomas Culverwell were appointed scrutineers. The SECRETARY then read a report from the directors of the affairs of the company since the date of the last meeting. It stated that, in January of the present year, an amalgamation with the Dublin, Coleraine, and Belfast Company was resolved on, and such parts selected from both lines as, in the opinion of the best authorities, would make a good line and the directors were of opinion that, but for the state of the money market, it Would have perfectly satisfied the whole of the shareholders. They had at once complied with the requisition, and called this meeting, and were resolved to remain neutral, that the shareholders alone might determine the ques tion of dissolution. If the result of this meeting should be the dissolution of the company, then the directors were prepared to return the money of the shareholders, less the expenses, as settled by the deed of agreement. If, however, it should be resolved to go on, then the company would either go to Parlia ment during the coming session for a line between Armagh and Portrush, or they would endeavour to effect an arrangement with the Dublin, Coleraine, and Belfast Company for the exchange of scrip. To do the former would be most, ruinous, and the change of scrip with the other company, if it could be effected, was the most rational course which they could adopt. Mr. WATT, Queen's Proctor for Ireland, thought it monstrous folly to go to Parliament for a line from Ar magh to Portrush. As a representative of 6,000 shares, he had come to London to vote against a dissolution of the company. An Act had been granted to the Dublin, Coleraine, and Belfast Company, for a line along the same route, which was a good line, and one that would pay. He moved that the company be not dissolved. Mr. E. FAULKNER seconded the motion. Mr. SCHULTZ thought that Mr. Watt was out of order in moving this other than as an amendment. He moved that this company be dissolved. Mr. CREED, in seconding the motion, complained of the conduct of the directors and secretary, and asked if the chairman would lay a financial statement before the meeting ? The CHAIRMAN said that question was not before this ' meeting ; they had met only to determine whether this company should be dissolved. He then put the questions to the meeting, and the shareholders proceeded to the vote ; the result was— For dissolution.... Against it 9,965 Majority against dissolution --8,305 The CHAIRMAN said the directors would take this as a confirmation of the amalgamation of the 28th of August. A vote of thanks to the Chairman was unanimously passed, and the meeting separated. AGRICULTURAL WAGES IN OXFORDSHIRE.—MT. W. Collingridge, farmer at Goding, was summoned to appear at the petty sessions, at Bicester, on Friday last, to show cause why he refused to pay John Freeman, a lad of thirteen, wages amounting to 6s. 6d. It was for three weeks' wages all but one day. The defence was, that the lad had misconducted himself by leaving on a Saturday morning. It appeared the complainant had worked for the defendant for some time ; that he left home at about Ave in the morning, and that he had not done his work till late at night; that until May he had had threepence per day, and twopence for Sun days, but that his wages were then raised one penny per day ; that on the day he left his place Mr. Collingridge told him he had " a whip in pickle " for him, and that the boy left is consequence. The magistrates ordered the defendant to pay the boy his wages for two weeks, 4s. 6d., and to pay the clerk's c osts, 9s. 6d. The farmer appeared very angry at the decision, and said he should appeal against the conviction. FATAL CART ACCIDENT.--An inquest was held last evening before Mr. Payne, at Guy's Hospital, on the body of Richard Fieldwood, Reed 56, a gardener. From the evidence of the witnesses it appeared that on Tuesday last the deceased, and a man natneiThotnpson, were sitting on the shafts of a van as it protsed St. Mark's Church, Kennington, when the horse started at the noise made by an omnibus. Thompson jumped off to stop the horse, and the deceased followed him, but his foot, unfortunately, caught in the wheel, and he was run over. He died in the above hospital on Thursday last. The jury returned a verdict of " Acci dental death." COWES, ISLE OF WIGHT. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) THE OLD COMMODORE. The remains of the late Commodore of the Royal Yacht Squadron were on Thursday deposited in the mau soleum at Brocklesbury. The coffin was borne by the seamen of his yacht, the pall by the officers. The good old Earl is laid with his fathers, and " His flag shall never float again." The Kestrel being no longer the property of a member of the Rszal Yacht Squadron, will return to Cowes under the red 'ensign, will be dismantled, and laid up in hoar old berth in our river, and eventually probably sold otzt. The office of Commodore will be executed by the Vice-- Commodore till the next general meeting (May next), when be will, it is supposed, as a matter of course, he offered the commodoreship of the squadron; and when we consider that nearly all the old members who founded the club are either dead or have given up yachting, it is a subjka of congratulatio i that the members should have been so fortunate in their choice of a Vice-Coninio • dore It would have been an unpkasant task to elect another to the chair over the Vice's head, but which, ire some instances, they might have been tempted to do ' from the Vice-Commodore's not going afloat, or only for a short time during the regatta, or at a distance frill). the Squadron House; but these difficulties are removed in the prevent instance, as the Vice-Commodore is as ardent en admirer and supporter of yachting as the old Commodore was, and has done everything in his power to increase its interest. He has had built for him, under his own superintendence, some of the fastest said most beautiful yachts that ever soled— the Harriet, the Louisa, and the far-famed Water-Witch; and we hope that the party who may be selected to fill the office of Vice-Commodore may be as warm an admirer arid able supporter of the interests of the squadron as the present Vice has been. Our yacht clubs are a nur ser y f or seamen o f t h e first class; the Royal Yacht Squadron alone employs 1,500 men, and the yachts are above 9,000 tons. The great benefits which the naval and merchant service have de rived from the yacht clubs are far beyond what is gene rally known. A consequence of our peers and princely commoners going afloat has been an improvement in our naval architecture, and an anxiety on the part of our manufacturers to produce everything that could add to the comfort and convenience of the great ones g oin g afloat in their little barques; and eventually our tars are greatly benefited in their health and comfort by having those conveniences, which were at first onlyin tended for the great, adapted to our naval and merchant shipping. In a national point of view, our attention is drawn to Mr. James Brooke, the present Raja of Sarawak, in the island of Borneo, one of the members of this club, who went out there in his schooner yacht Royalist; and to Mr. Benjamin Boyd, who is now in New South Wales, in his schooner yacht Wanderer, forming a town after his name called Boyd Town.

On Wednesday evening last, appearing poorly and desponding, he was prevailed upon by his sister to retire to bed at the early hour of six o'clock. About nine his mother went to his room, when h . e requested her to fetch him a glass of beer, for which purpose she left him, but on her return found the door fastened. She knocked, and called to deceased by name, but, receiving no answer, she raised an alarm, and on the door being forced open by an as sistant in the shop, deceased was found lying on the Boor in a pool of blood, with a frightful gash in his throat, nearly severing the head from the body, death from which must have been instantaneous. Deceased was considered to be wealthy, and no cause, beyond that of great nervous excitement, can be attributed for his having committed the suicidal act. Verdict—" Tempo rary Insanity." Dr. Phillimore and family have returned to town from the baths of Wiesbaden.
