ASSAULT, WITH INTENT TO DO GRIEVOUS BODILY HARM.—John Morgan, aged 19, a last-maker, was charged with having feloniously stabbed and wounded Martin O'Hara, an officer in the service of the Great Western Railway Company, with intent to do him grie. vous bodily harm. Mr. Clarkson appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Prendergast attended for the prisoner. Mr. CLAnttsox having opened the case, called Martin O'Hara, who said that on the 22d of August be gave evidence in that Court, and on leaving he called (looking for a friend) in a public-house near Golden square, and, not finding him, was coming out, when the prisoner, who was inside, said, " There goes a b-- railway policeman," at the same time dram ing the weapon out of a sword-stick and stabbing him in the back. Witness said " you have stabbed me in the back." The prisoner said nothing, but the landlord said " I hope not," and wished them to make it up. Witness re fused, and the prisoner was given into custody. Police-constable 185 C said that he was called to take the prisoner into custody.- He was not quite sober, and when told what he was charged with, he said, " Oh , it's only a lark, and I'm sorry for it." On the way to the station-house the prisoner said, " I'll go with you, but I won't go with that b-." Mr. PRENDERGAST then addressed the jury, and cha racterised the whole matter as of the most trumpery kind. The grievous bodily harm resolved itself into a trifling puncture of the skin, for which no surgeon had been consulted, and which would never have been heard of, if the person aggrieved had not been a policeman. Witnesses were heard to character. The Learned RECORDER summed up, and the jury, after a brief consultation, returned a verdict of guilty of an aggravated assault. The jury at the same time ex pressed their reprobation of the use of such instruments. The prisoner was sentenced to six months' imprison ment, with hard labour, the Learned Judge regretting that the Court could not shut its eyes to the fact that this crime was greatly on the increase, and, therefore, the public safety required that every such offence should be visited by severe punishment. ENFIELD AND EDMONTON RAILWAY.—(THIS DAY.) The first ordinary meeting of the shareholders of the Enfield and Edmonton Railway Company took place to day a t the London Tavern, the Act for incorporating the company having become law, and requiring that the first ordinary meeting should take place within two months after its passing. Captain Owen took the chair at half-past twelve o clock, and the preliminaries of a first meeting having bee.i gone through, The SECRETARY then read the report, from which the following are extracts The first steps taken by the provisional directors on promoting the undertaking was to place themselves in communication with the Eastern Counties Railway Company on the subject of their assent to it, and with regard to the co-operation and support they might expect from that company. In re plying to the application of the provisional directors the Eastern Counties Company expressed their readiness to support any Bill promoted by an ; independent company for making the proposed branch, and their desire, when the company should be incorporated, to make the best practicable arrangements for %Yorking the branch, and accommodating the traffic, and silbsequently that company repeated their anxiety to give ti. he Enfield Company thei r cor di a l suppor t, an d to afford esVery assistance and co-operation in forwarding the measure through Parliament. With th ese assurances the provisional directors felt justified in prosecuting the Bill. Estimates w ere made by Mr. Borthwickand Mr. Ste n, which were fixed at 36,0001., which formed the capital o f t h e eoropany, and which was divided into Imo TITE SITX S 1401qD01‘T, TU'E'SDAY EYENIIsTaI shares of 201. each, of which number 525 shares were sub scribed for by the Eastern Counties Railway Company. After a fruitless opposition, the Bill was car ried at a small expense to the shareholders. The original intention of the Company was to cross the turnpike-road at Lower Edmonton on a level, but this intention being strongly opposed by the Metropolis Roads Commissioners, the engineer suggested a diversion of the present turnpike-road, and the rail way would now be crossed by a bridge at the rear, instead of the front, of the houses on the line of the present turnpike road. This arrangement bad met with the sanction of the Metropolitan Commis sioners. After paying their parliamentary agents and solicitors sums of money on account, the directors had a balance in the hands of their bankers of 2,0661. 4s. 9d. The report of the directors on the motion of Mr. T. Bralsford, seconded by Mr. Richardson, was unani- mously received, adopted, and ordered to be printed and circulated among the proprietors. _ _ _ Mr. SMALL, in moiing - the re-election of the present directors, complimented them on the economy they had exercised, in obtaining the Act, and stated his belief of that economy being unexampled in the history of railway companies, especially one in which they had met with such unexpected opposition as the present. Mr. RICHARDSON having seconded the re-election of the directors, the motion was declared to be carried unanimously. On the motion of Mr. Smale, seconded by Mr. Dow, it was unanimously resolved, that 2501. a year be appro priated to the directors. Mr. Dow and Mr. Chambers were appointed auditors, with a remuneration of ten guineas each a year. Thanks were voted to the chairman and directors, and the meeting broke up.

(From the Gazette of this Evening.) ADMIRALTY, SEPT. 21, 1846. Dispatches have been received at this office, from Rear- Admiral Inglefield, in the River Plate, addressed to the Secretary of the Admiralty, of which the following are copies:— Her Majesty's ship Vernon, off Monte Video, 17th June, 1846. Sir,—Adverting to my letter, No. 94, of the 9th inst., I have now the satisfaction of forwarding to you, for the information of the Lords Commissioners of the Admi ralty, a copy of the report I have received from Captain Sir Charles Hotham, of her Majesty's ship Gorgon, acquainting me with the successful passage of the con voy (of 110 vessels) under the protection of the English and French vessels of war, named in the margin,* past French—San Martin, Fulton, Gassendi, Coquette, Procida. batteries which General Hoses had caused to be er , cted lon the heights of San Lorenzo, in the river ra7ana, for the express purpose of obstructing the pro gr2ss of the convoy down the river. Although this success, owing to the grounding of the Br tish barque Caledonia, was not perfectly complete, ye I feel persuaded their Lordships will give the fit lest credit to Captain Sir Charles Hotham, and hi; colleague, Admiral Trehouart, for the able and judicious manner in which their arrangements were made, and also to all the officers, seamen, and royal marines serving under their orders, for the cool and steady manner in which this difficult service was per formed, fortunately without a single casualty in any of , I the men-of-war or merchant vessels, a circumstance which, considering the strength of the position of the Buenos Ayrean batteries and continuous fire, cannot but be regarded as quite providential. I trust their Lordships will permit me to call their attention to the names of the officers whom Sir Charles Hotham especially brings under my notice, as having occupied situations more prominent than others. Their Lordships will be gratified by learning, that the unanimity and good understanding which existed be tween Sir Charles Hotham and Admiral TrCihouart, and the respective vessels under their orders, from the com mencement of the expedition, has continued, without in termission, to subsist between the two squadrons, a re mark which, I am happy to be able to assert, is equally Lee I applicable to all occasions when English and French have been acting together, during the time I have had the honour to hold this command.--I hare the honour to be, &c. (Signed) S. H. INGLEFIELD. Rear-Admiral and Commander-in-Chief. The Secretary of the Admiralty. Her Majesty's Ship Gorgon, Obligado, June 7. Sir,—l have the honour to inform you, that the con -178, voy of merchant vessels of all nations, amounting to 4s 110 in number, have passed the enemy's batteries and 2s obstacles in the Parana, in comparative safety. 6 The severe treatment4which her Majesty's ships Alc cto, (1, L;zard, and Harpy experienced from the batteries and !; infantry stationed on the heights of San Lorenzo, in i %2 their respective passages ; tip the Parana (as exemplified 1 1 4 in my dispatch of the 20th ultimo), rendered it incum bent upon Admiral Trehouart and myself to adopt every precaution which might tend to obviate disaster. The heights or barrancas of San Lorenzo are sixty feet above the river, the face is nearly perpendicular, and the ground, frcm the edge of the cliff, recedes ; a table land, of five or six miles in length, extends from one end to the other, presenting a dead level, with every facility for transporting artillery on travelling carriages to any required point. At the north end of this barranca, the cliff projects and tends westerly, thus offering a salient point for a battery commanding from N.W. to S.E. Half a mile to the southward, a position, nearly similar, had been selected for a second battery, and parapets, with embrazures, had been erected for single guns along the remainder of the barranca; the general breadth of the navigable channel is about three-quarters of a mile, widening gradually from the north-west en trance, with a current of three knots per hour running through. It was obvious that the nicest gunnery could alone drive the enemy from their guns ; the immense thick ness of the embrazures and parapets protected them from a flanking fire, and such was the character of the ground, that even with a spy glass nothing could be seen but the wheels of a carriage or muzzle of a gun. Having carefully weighed these difficulties, Admiral ihouart and I decided upon the following plan of attack, as best suited to the protection of our convoy. That the heavy steamers of both squadrons should anchor and engage the batteries during the time the convoy were passing, and that a masked rocket battery should be prepared on the island in front of the second battery, distant about one thousand two hundred yards : the convoy in the mean time passing at allotted distances under cover of the sailing ships and small steamers named in the margin. 1 . Accordingly, being favovoured with a breeze from the nothward, at 8•30 A.M., on the 4th instant, I made the general signal for the steamers, Gorgon, Firebrand, Alecto, Gassendi, and Fulton to weigh. At 10•20 A.M. the Gorgon opened her fire; and the Firebrand and Gas sendi, having reached their appointed station one thou sand yards from the north battery, anchored in an enfi lading position. The three remaining steamers, Gorgon, Fulton, and Alecto, proceededjpast the batteries and anchored nine hundred yards from the barrancas abreast, and two thousand from the first battery. On the first gun being fired from the Gorgon, the rocket party unmasked their battery, and opened a heavy and effective fire, which helped to divert the enemy's attention from the three steamers, who were passing within grape and musket range. At 10'40 A.M. the action had fairly commenced be tween the batteries, field pieces, infantry, and the steamers of the combined force, and the English rocket partyg a channel five hundred yards wide was left between the steamers and the islands for the convoy. At 11.50 A.M. the Dolphin, leading the convoy, passed the Gorgon, the respective divisions sailed by in their proper order, about twenty only remained, when I was sorry to see the British barque Caledonia, uninjured, and with the wind dead aft, run on shore on a small bank off the point of the second island. In so ill assorted and numerous a convoy of all sizes, badly equipped, and lumbered with enormous deck cargoes, I confess I cal culated on the loss of some, but I bad hoped to have been spared the pain of witnessing a fine English barque handled in a st) le by no means creditable to those on board. and grounded without any reason under the enemy's fire. I immediately signalised Alecto and Lizard to proceed to her assistance. At 12.50, the convoy havidg all passed, I made the general signal to weigh. The Caledonia still remaining immoveably fixed, she had beaten over one bank, and lay on her port side, with her bottom exposed to the enemy's fire, through which six or seven shot had already been put, and the offieers sent on that service being unanimously of opinion that she could not be got off without discharging her cargo, by my direction she was set on fire to prevent her falling into the enemy's hands, and two coasting vessels, simi larly situated, were also destroyed. This was the only drawback to a most satisfactory day ; the arrangements answered even better than my colleague or myself had dared to anticipate. The enemy brought into playfrom sixteen to twenty guns ; during five months they had prepared heated shot and studied every stratagem to secure themselves and punish us, in stead of which we dismounted some of their guns, and drove them repeatedly from others. We selected the steam force in consequence of the ad vantage which their pivot guns give, and it is difficult to imagine finer gunnery than they displayed. Marvellous to say, that although each of these vessels were hulled and hit repeatedly, and that more than three-fourths of the convoy were severally struck, there is not a man killed or wounded amongst us. I have received every assistance and support from the officers of this squadron, but some have occupied situations more pro- * E nglish—Gorgon, Firebrand, Dolphin, Fanny, Lizard Harpy, Alecto. English—Dolphin, Fanny, Lizard, Harpy. F re nch-6Q Martin , (ix Pr9cida. minent than others, and I feel it my duty to bring them to your notice. The officers in command of the rocket party were Lieutenant L. B. Mackinnon, her Majesty's ship Alecto; First Lieutenant C. L. Barnard, Royal Marine Artillery, her Majesty's ship Firebrand ; Mr. David Ham, gunner, her Majesty's ship Alecto ; the party were obliged to remain two days and nights concealed unter the enemy's nose, and they, with the marine artillery and seamen, deserve credit for the discipline and skill with which they conducted their operations, and I consider that they rendered us most essential service. I have repeatedly derived advantage from the ability and zeal of Mr. Henry Baker, Master of this ship, during my ab sence from the Gorgon; he made a most excellent chart of the passage and channels near San Lorenzo, and he piloted this ship, leading the steam force past the bat teries, much to my satisfaction. Monsieur Mazires, Lieutenant commanding the French steamer Fulton, on seeing the disastrous state of the Caledonia, hastened to her assistance, and I hope this Officer will permit me to thank him for his uniform and effective co-operation. In all pay communications I have alluded to the great satisfaction I have derived in having Admiral Ts i houart as a colleague ; during eight months we have acted together, and I make bold to say that more perfect harmony and unanimity has never existed than between the two commanding officers, to whom yourself and Ad miral Laini entrusted the direction of the service in the Parana--I have, &c., (Signed) CHAS.

OLD COURT. Ed.eard Morgan, George Beth ell, and Thomas Ballard surrendered to take their trial upon an indictment charging them with feloniously stealing a clarence car riage, the property of Richard Kean. Mr. Doane prosecuted, and Mr. Clarkson, with Mr. Ballantine, defended the prisoners. The circumstances under which this charge was pre ferred against the defendants were of rather a peculiar character. It appeared that Morgan was engaged in business as a coach-builder, and he had had some trans actions with a cab•master, named Worthington, and on the beginning of the present year there was some nego tiation between them respecting a clarence carriage, the result being, according to the statement of Morgan, that the vehicle was hired by Worthington for 51. a month, but the latter declared that a purchase out and out had been effected, and that it was to be paid for by instal ments. Very soon after the carriage came into Worth ington's possession, it appeared that he took it to a re pository and got an advance of 20Z upon it, and be then ordered a person, named Kean, to whom he .was at that time indebted, and who had brought an action against him, to repay the 20/. so advanced, and take the carriage in liquidation of his debt and costs. It then appeared that Morgan, having become acquainted with those cir• cumstances, went to the place where the carriage was kept by Kean, accompanied by the other two defendants, and under pretence of purchasing it, they obtained pos session of it, for the purpose, as they said, " of trying it upon the main road," and took it away altogether. It appeared that the matter bad been investigated by the magistrate at the Hammersmith Police-court, and he dismissed the charge of felony, but the parties subse quently went before the Grand Jury, who found a true bill. The jury returned a verdict of Not guilty. THE IRISH SOCIETY'S ESTATES. ' A deputation from the Irish Society has been for some days inspecting their estates in Derry, with the view to making improvements and giving employment to the poor. In a report of the proceedings of the deputation, given in the Derry Sentinel of Saturday, there are the following passages : " The building leases of the society, generally speak ing, will be extended, and most of the tenants who either have expended, or who intend to expend money on building, are satisfied with the terms granted them ; but with a few who hold under the society in this way the deputation have not come to a complete understanding, they being desirous that the occupiers and not the mid dleman or intermediate tenant should derive the chief benefit. " A deputation of their tenantry atterded at Milton Lodge, and they were well pleased with the result. A long conversation arose respecting the state of the poor. The society are determined to aid, in every possible way in their power, in providing work during the approach ing winter. " The deputation had small parties to dine with them every day, as it was their object to procure from the clergymen, magistrates, and gentry of this district, who were best informed, their several opinions respecting the condition of the people, their wants and wishes. When time permitted, they also drove round different parts of the neighbourhood, in order to ascertain the exact state of the crops, and the weather being remarkably fine, they had an excellent opportunity of gratifying their desire on this subject. " Another matter which engaged their attention de mands our notice at greater length than any of the pre ceding. It has frequently been remarked that the north coast of Ireland abounds with fish, and that Culdaff Bay and the Back Strand of Magillan, which are both open to the sea, are abundantly supplied with turbot, sole, plaice, &c. That they are abundantly furnished with cod is beyond dispute, but, notwithstanding, from the apathy that exists, and want of skill, there is no person of sufficient means willing to fit out a craft pro perly equipped for fishing this boisterous and exposed coast; nor has it yet been ascertained if a vessel adapted in' every way for the purpose would repay herself, al though the prevalent opinion among those best qualified to judge is, that if knowledge and industry were com bined, she would make a handsome return for the ex penditure. It was lately represented to the society by their officers, that a subscription to a pier to be built on their slob at Moville, would benefit the lough and trade in various ways, especially in affording shelter to craft employed in the deep-sea fishing, and they imme diately granted 3001. and the ground on which it was to be built. The late deputation, on their ar rival here, inquired what progress had been made with the pier, observing that there was the harbour at Port rush on one hand, and that the pier of Moville would shortly be completed on the other, and that these ought to afford abundant protection to the small fishing craft of Ennishowen and the county of Derry; but, on being informed that the latter work was not even commenced, and that their Admiralty yacht was well found in sails and ground tackle, they immediately proposed to lend her to two of their practical officers, and to grant a sum towards the purchase of a first-rate trawl, provided proper persons were brought from Liverpool to instruct them in all the branches of deep-sea fishing, and that they would supply the vessel with all kinds of fishing lines, make such alterations in her at their own expense as were necessary, keeping a true account, to be fur nisht d when called on, of the income and expenditure, and submitting to other regulations, as required by the general agent and the vice-admiral. " Their subscriptions to schools and places of religious worship were on the most liberal scale, and we greatly fear that if the pm party of the society was placed in the hands of persons resident here, local prejudices and various other causes, which it is needless to specify, would operate very seriously to the detriment of those valuable and important public institutions to which the present lords of the soil are such munificent benefactors." CLERICAL INTOLERANCE. (From the Newcastle Guardian.) A glaring and shameful act of clerical intolerance has just occurred in this neighbourhood —a case , unhappily, not uncommon, but, for that reason, all th e more de serving of the most unqualified condemnation. It appears that the Rev. Mr. Armstrong, the incumbent of the parish of Wal!send, deems the rite of baptism to be valid only when administered by a clergyman of his own denomination. Accordingly, when recently asked to. grant Christian burial to the child of one of his parishioners, he stoutly refused, on the ground that the child had been invalidly baptised by a Wesleyan minister, put the keys of the church-yard into his pocket, and, unceremoniously walking off, left the poor heathen, as we suppose his Reverence would call him, to bury his child the best way he could. The corpse of the child was taken to the church-yard, conducted through the sexton's house, instead of by the usual entrance, and interred without the customary service. Can any one imagine the feelings of the parent so harshly and so rudely treated ! He immediately communicated the circum stance to the Lord Bishop of the diocese, who as promptly returned the following reply:— " The Bishop of Durham is very sorry to hear that any of his clergy has acted in the manner stated by Mr. Giles. If Mr. Armstrong has refused Christian burial to a child, because it had been baptised by a Dissenting minister, he has acted unworthy of his calling, and ren dered himself liable to punishment in the ecclesiastical courts if Mr. Giles or any other wish to prosecute him. The Bishop will not fail to write to Mr. Armstrong." This is the answer we should have expected from the worthy Bishop, and it is highly creditable to his lordship. The parishioners followed it up by sending a deputation to Mr. Armstrong to remonstrate with him on his un feeling conduct, and to assure him that unless he'pledged himself never to repeat it the bishop's recommendation would be carried out, and proceedings instituted forth with. This is said to have had the desired effect on Mr. Armstrong, and we are promised that such an outrage will not again occur at Wallsend. We purposely delayed noticing this until its publicstion became absolutely ne cessary. Such cases, we know, are not more disagreeable to dissenters than to many pious and liberal members of the establishment. Yet the system that allows a minister of any religion, Episcopalian, Congregational, or Wesleyan, to practise such acts of intolerance must be bad—radically bad—and in need of serious reformation. Mr. Armstrong is blameable; but how much more so are the laws that allow him or any other clergyman —we care not of what religion—to degrade themselves and their, profession so miserably ? Verily the country has need of many reforms, but church reform is the crying necessity of the times. EAST SURREY REGISTRATION. The Revising Barrister, S. C. C. Fyshe, Esq., com menced the revision for the above portion of the county of Surrey, at the Town-hall, Reigate, yesterday. Messrs. Drummond and Chrees attended as the Con servative agents ; Mr. Jeans appeared as the agent for the Surrey Reform Association, and Mr. R. Russell at tended on behalf of the free trade party. The Learned Barrister went through the lists of the whole of the parishes, but none of the cases involved any new point, or any question of importance to the public. The next court will be held at Croydon on Wednesday, at eleven o'clock. ANDOVER.—CONCEALED TREASUIE.—Some alter ations being found necessary to an ancient dwelling. house in the High-street, the workmen, in removing the bricks from the bottom of a chimney, were agreeably surprised by finding several gold coins of great antiquity. It is conjectured they were concealed by the removal of a brick and replacing it, nearly two centuries since. Two of the pieces are about the size of the present half-crown, but much thinner ; they were coined in the reigns of James I. and Charles I.,and are in good preservation, having apparentl y l a i n ormant almost from the time of their issue. It would appear they were deposited in their hiding-place wrapped in linen, but which was entirely decayed, leaving only a decayed cover of dust about the coins.—Hampshire Independent. The paragraphs which have appeared in the English papers, stating that saloons were to bo provided on the Eastern C ount i es line for the accommodation of smokers, have attr ac t e d much attention on the Continent, which is but n a t ura l , as there every male traveller is by habit a consumer of cigars. The example will most likely be extensively followed in Germany and Holland, should the system be found to answer the expectations of the Eastern Counties Company. Without wishing to inter fere with the taste:: and pursuits of the public, we think, however, that smoking on railways ought not to be en couraged, simply o n t h e groun d t h a t it m ust be more or less dangerous. W it h a strong curren t o f a i r p ass i ng through railway carr i ages i n mot i on, t h ere mus t a l wa y s be a chance of ignition in the case of clothing and other inflammable articles which may happen to lie loosely in the way. The accident on the Versailles Railway a few years since, from fire, should operate as a caution to rail way boards with regard to smoking. The paint and varnish were found, on that occasion, to contribute freely to the melancholy and extensive loss of life that took place. MARKET INTELLIGENCE. (From the London New Price Current of September 22.) Scca.n.—To-day there was a strong desire manifested by grocers and refiners to operate in West India Muscovadoe Sugar of every description, and althougn there was an in creased quantity brought to market, still merchants were enabled to obtain an advance on the rates of Friday of 6d per cwt. for the parcels disposed of by private treaty ; indeed at a public sale of 324 hhds 15 trs and 76 barrels of Jamaica the rise was 6d to Is. day Refined goods were much in demand for home consumption, and prices are still rising —brown lumps selling at 63 s t o 645, and standard lumps at 64s Gd to 65s per cwt.

Miami - rms.—This afternoon, at public sale, 179 bags were sold at rather higher rates—middling yellow fetching 48s 6d, low greyish 43s 6d to 445, and washed 43s to 44s tid per cwt. FOREIGN.—This afternoon amnia Sugar was purchased with more freedom, and 5,990 bags at auction were all sold at an advance on former rates of 6d to Is for the better quali ties ; whilst inferior and brown sorts sustained the former value. Of China 900 boxes were sold at 49s for middling soft white; privately only a limited business was transacted in yellow Havannah at 24s 9d for fine quality ; the quantity sold was 900 chests. EAST INDIA.—This afternoon the public sales of Bengal Sugar, consisting of 3,718 bags, went off briskly at an ad vance on former rates of Gd t o Is. Of Madras 7,302 bags were sold at auction at 35s 6d to 43s 6d for damp. COFFEE—This afternoon there was no public sale of any kind of Coffee, but large parcels are declared. Privately ex porters and the home trade operate with caution, and holders experienced difficulty in supporting prices—good ord Native Ceylon was obtainable at 39s 6d per cwt. TEA.—lmporters of Black are unwilling to further reduce their prices, but there has been no increase in the demand, the trade only purchasing sufficient for their immediate wants; cheap as all sorts are, common Congou for cash only being wo.ith 8d to 80, and good common 9d to 9id per lb cash. The value of l ow to fine Pouchong is 3d to 9d.. Of all descriptions there is a fair quantity on offer. Although Green can be obtained upon rather lower terms, still few purchases have been made in any kind, and the market is well supplied, especially with common and middling kinds. Public sales are announced to take place on Thursday. SPICES.—To-day Black Pepper was only in limited re quest privately, and 1,873 bags of Penang at auction wee taken in at 2id to 2nd for good but rather stalky and dusty, being rather above the value, but the sea damaged sold at 2id to `2#d; 81 bags White were taken in at 3id for mid dling, but two lots of damaged sold at 3id ; 83 barrels Ja maica Ginger went at stiffer rates; 84 cases 83 bags Culti vated Bengal sold at 24s to 26s for low, and at 29s to 31s for middling, which is rather dearer. SPlRlTS.—Jamaica Rum is not offered upon lower terms, although the demand has been limited ; for low and mid dling sorts, however, 3s 6d to 3s 9d. and for good to fine 3s 10d to 5s per gallon are the rates insisted upon—there is not a large quantity to offer, and that a brisker demand will take place shortly there is every prospect, as stocks in second hands are small, and there being a large consumption going on. Leeward Island is little wanted, and, prices are rather lower. Although Calcutta can be obtained at Is 10d to Is lld proof with certificate, still few buyers are to be met with, and the supply is getting larger. Demerara has been sparingly dealt in. For Leeward Island prices are 5d to 6d, for Jamaica 9d to Is, and for Calcutta 3d to 4d per gallon above those of last season. Brandy has been in ex tensive request, and prices are still looking up; the stock is on the decrease, and the consumption going on largely. Geneva has been in brisk demand. For British Corn Spirits prices are still rising. INDIGO.—To-day there was an increased desire manifested to operate in East India, in consequence of the unfavourable accounts come to hand from Calcutta, relative to the crop, the estimate being only 85,000 to 90,000 maunds. Several purchases were made, and at, prices showing an advance on those of the last; quarterly sale of 3d to 4d per lb. Mer— chants evinced much firmness, and several declinedto sell at present. FRUIT.—New Patras C urran t s h ave b een selling at 565. Valencia Raisins are much wanted at the opening price of 425, but the market at present is without a supply. COCHINEAL.--There has been less demand, and prices have slightly given way. The prides are much the same as they were last year at this time, but the deliveries are much larger, while the stock is heavier. SALTPETRE.— To-day Rough was purchased with caution, and 1,095 bags of Calcutta at auction, of middling quality, sold upon rather lower terms; 7 to si per cent refraction dingy grey rather damp went at 25s 6d, 7i to 10 per cent ditto 255, and damaged al 22s to 235. OlLS.—There has been an increased desire manifested to operate in Seal Oil, and rather higher rates were given, the home demand has been good,and low sorts are wanted for expor tation. Holders evincarmness,and supply the market sparingly —especially with common qualities, and the tendency of prices is decidedly upwards for all sorts. Cod is little wanted, and holders are more inclined to sell as arrivals are shortly ex pected. Southern has brought further improved rates: the supply continuing to be small, and the demand good for all descriptions. No improvement has taken place in the value of Sperm, but there has been a brisker demand; holders have evinced more firmness, and supplied the market less freely. There is, however, a large quantity remaining on importers hands. The arrivals of all Fish Oil continue to be small ; whereas the deliveries are on the increase, and prices are 30s to 90s per tun under those of this time last season. None has again been offered at auction, but some parcels, consisting of 40 tuns of Sperm and 40 tuns of Seal are declared. Cocoa Nut has much in demand, and higher rates are given. For Palm the mar ket has a firm appearance, a good business has been trans acted privately, and there is but a moderate quan tity on ofier. Linseed Oil has been in excellent request for home consumption ; some purchases have been made by exporters, and 24s 9d to 25s have the rates given for; for forward delivery several contracts have been entered into at 25s to 25s 6d per cwt. Rape Seed Oil has been sparingly dealt in, and there are sellers upon rather lower terms. Olive has risen in value, and a large business has been transacted. American Lard Oil has been purchased more freely. TALLOW.—An extensive demand has prevailed for' Russian on the spot, and prices continue on the advance, although arrivals are increasing; fine new Petersburg!' yellow Candle has been selling at 43s to 43s ad, and old 42s 3d to 40s 6d ; holders are firm. For forward delivery a good desire has been evinced to operate. Home made has been in brisk demand on the spot at 41s 6d to 42s nett cash, but there is a plenti ful supply ; this is, however, yet the cheapest sort of Tallow ; the consumption thel largest. All other sorts are wanted, but at present not much is to be had; the value of American of low to fine quality is 37s to 42s 6d, and Australian 38s to 43s ; at auction 60 casks of Odessa Ox were sold at 42s to 42s 9d, and loose 38s 6d; 10 casks Taganrog Sheep 42s 3d to 423 6d per cwt. K ENSINGTON.GARDENS.—The band of the Royal Horse Guards, stationed at Knightsbridge, have dis continued for this season their promenade concerts on the lawn in Kensington•gardens, on Tuesday and Friday afternoons. SEPTEMPER 22, 1846. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. MALTA, SEPT. 1 l.—O n M on d ay a court-mart i al was held on board her M , Ajosty's ship Tyne, for the trial of William Johnson, David Douglas, and Charles Wright, engineers of her lviajesty's steamer Hecla, the first for contempt and disobedience of orders to his captain, Duffil, in refusing to send a forge on deck for the use of the ship without a written order from the captain, and on being placed in arrest turning sneeringly round and saying, 'll thank you, sir, very much;" the last two for refusing to take charge of the engine -room and engines when Johnson was put under arrest. The charges were fully proved, and Johnson was sen tenced to be mulct of his pay and allowances due to the day of sentence, to be dismissed the Ilecla, and reduced to the rank of second engineer for 12 months, with a re commendation to the Admiralty to reinstate him, should his conduct be good during that time. Douglas was acquitted, owing to an informality in his description. Wright was sentenced to be mulct of pay due, and to remain a second engineer, without being able to advance, for 12 months. The Hecla went to Tripoli to day with Mr. Crowe, the new consul. The Fantome went out yesterday with provisions for the Inconstant at Beyrout. The Indian mails are daily expected. DISTRIBUTION OF THE MEDITERRANEAN SQUADRON. In Malta Harbour.—The Ceylon, 12, receiving ship, bearing the flag of Rear-Admiral Sir L. Curtis, Bart., second in command and Superintendent of Malta Dock yard; the Tyne, 28, Captain W. N. Glascock ; the Amazon, 49. Captain J. J. St o pf or d ; th e H ar l equ i n , Commander Curry; the Avenger, Captain T. Williams; the Locust steamer, Lieutenant-Commander Power; and the Wee Pet steam-tug. On Surveying Duty.—The Bonetta, Commander T. S. Brock; and the Research cutter, Lieutenant Spratt. At Sea.—The Hibernia, 120, Captain Peter Richards, C. 8., bearing the flag of Vice-Admiral Sir W. Parker, Bart., G.C.8., the Commander-in-Chief. At Gibraltar.— The Virago war steamer, Commander John Lunn; and the Phcenix steam-vessel, Commander Dennis. At Corfu.—The Meteor, Lieutenant-Commander Butler. At the Piraeus of Athens.—The Jackal] steamer, Lieu tenant-Commander W. M. J. G. Pasco. At Beyrout.—The Inconstant, 36, Captain C. IL Fre , mantle. At Smyrna.—The Syren, 16, Commander H. E. Edgell. At Constantinople.—The Bloodhound steamer, Lieu tenant R. Phillips. En route to Tripoli from Malta, the Hecla war steamer, Commander C. Starmer. En route to Beyrout from Malta, the Fantome, 16, Commander Le Hardy. • MAIL STEAM-PACKETS. At Malta—The Spitfire, Lieutenant J. A. M'Donald, and the Trident, Lieutenant C. E. Rigge. En route from Malta to Marseilles, the Flamer, Lieu tenant La vie. En route from the lonian Islands and Greece to Malta, the Volcano, Lieutenant Crang.

PENINSULAR AND ORIENTAL STEAM NAVIGATION COM PANY'S FLOTILLA. . . ... _ At Southampton—The Pottinger, Tagus, Ariel, and Duke of Cornwall. En route for Southampton and Gibraltar from Malta, the Montrose. En route for Constantinople and Ports of the Black Sea from Malta, the Achilles. En route from Alexandria to Malta, the Oriental. At Malta, the Iberia. FOREIGN SHIPS OF WAR AND PACKETS IN PORT. French steamers, the Mentor and Hellespont. PORTSMOUTH, SUNDAY.—A circular has been issued from the office of Rear-Admiral J. W. D. Dundas, M.P., C. 8., one of the Lords of the Admiralty, calling upon the lieutenants upon the active list to state if they are prepared to serve at sea, or would prefer the Coast Guard appointments. This would appear like prepara tions for organising an available force for an emergency. Much dissatisfaction is expressed at the manner in which the new China medal has been executed. The medal is of silver, but the receptacle for the riband, a conspicuous feature in the, honour, is of albata or Ger man metal. Thus, whilst the medallion looks bright and respectable, the clasp presents a dingy, brassy ap pearance. We yesterday saw twenty medals lying upon the counter of a silversmith in this borough, which had been sent by various officers to have silver substituted for the spurious metal, which entails an expense upon their purses of about 16s. each. Such is the manner in which bravery is rewarded. The Echo steam-tug took down yesterday to Cowes a capstan and hawsers for the Ajax steam guard•ship, in tended to be floated out of dock at Cowes on Tuesday. The Moozuffer, Captain Ethersey, I. N.. a very fine handsome steam-frigate, recently launched, belonging to the fleet of the Hon. the East India Company, arrived on Friday at Spithead, under sail alone, in most beauti ful style. It would seem that while the royal dockyards turn out steam-vessels of the most inefficient descrip doe, the merchant builders achieve the most enviable excellence in that all-important branch of naval archi tecture. The Moozuffer is a beautiful sample, built by Fletcher and Co., of Limehouse ' with beam engines by Seawark and Capel. She is 250 feet long; 37 feet beam outside the wales; 1,444 k tons burden; has a comple ment of 180 ; mounts two 68 and four 32 pounders, and is 500 horse power. Her funnel and paddle- wheels are unshipped, as she proceeds to Bombay under sail alone, brig-rigged. The Helena, 16, Commander Sir Cornwallis Ricketts, was in the Mozambique Channel on her passage thence to the Cape on the 25th of June. Fever and dysentery were raging on board, and had been fearfully prevalent. Elevert of the crew had died, and at the above date forty three were on the sick list; the infection, however, was subsiding. Sir Cornwallis had himself been attacked, and the ship had for a fortnight been worked and commanded by the first lieutenant, Mr. Phillips. At one time, we are informed, only fifty -seven of the crew were fit for duty, the commander, two lieutenants, and master at the same time being sick. Only four of the officers had escaped. The Cygnet, 6, Commander Layton, was at Loando on the 15th of June, at which time Commander Mon tresor had not arrived to supersede Commander Layton. Four of the slaver prizes, out of 17 taken by the Cygnet, had turned out blanks in adjudication. The Abo, Russian store-ship, saluted the Commander in-Chief this morning soon atter eight o'clock, with 17 guns, which was returned immediately by the Victory, with Sir Charles Ogle's flag temporarily suspended at the main. She also exchanged salutes with the garrison this afternoon. The Adventure, naval transport, arrived this morning, with stores, from the eastward. A temporary cessation of the traffic between this place and Gosport was occasioned yesterday by one of the chains of the floating bridge breaking between four and five o'clock in the afternoon, when the bridge was in the centre of the passage ; the passengers, &c., were obliged to be removed in boats at the expense of the bridge pro• prietors. It was very fortunate no large vessels required to pass in or out during the time the obstruction lasted, which was removed at ten this morning. The Cambrian, 36, was undocked (having had a thorough repair) this morning. The master of the Victory, Mr. Flynn, and his party of men, who took the Rifleman steam-gun vessel to Woolwich for her engines, returned by train from Lon don this evening. The Comet, steam-vessel, Lieutenant-Commander Johnston, arrived at Cork from Waterford on the even ing of the 17th inst. The squadron of evolution were not expected there. The Madagascar, store-ship, Master-Commander.Burney, and the Dee, steam-trans port, Master-Commander Driver, were in harbour at Cove when the Comet arrived. The Stromboli, steam sloop, Commander Fisher, left Cork for the Shannon with grain on the 16th. The I)ee was about to ship a similar cargo. The Comet landed at the Custom-house 40 boxes of specie, each box containing, in crowns, half crowns, shillings, and si x p cnces , 500/ . ster li ng. Between five and six o'clock on Friday morning she left for Tralee, whence she would - proceed to Limerick, Galway, Sligo, and Westport, disembarking at each port money, &c., for the relief of the prevailing distress. WOOLWICH.—In the latter part of the Parliamentary session of 1845 a Bill was brought in and passed into a law, empowering the Admiralty and Board of Ordnance to take, without any previous sessional notice, as was formerly the case, any quantity of ground that might be required for the service of the army and navy, or for naval and military works contemplated to be constructed in the United Kingdom. This Bill was framed to meet the difficulties which had occurred in the attempt to ob tain a better practice-ground in the marshes at Wool wich; and, although that object has not yet been ac complished, in consequence of other localities having been suggested, the powers of the Bill have been made available in introducing very important improvements and additions to Woolwich dockyard. The whole of the buildings on the north side of George-street, Woolwich, leading on the Greenwich road from the residence of the captain-superintendent of the dockyard to the large chimney of the foundry has been valued by a jury, and the amounts decided on paid to the proprietors, and in the course of the present week the dwelling-houses will be sold for the value of the old - bricks, the whole cleared off immediately, and the walls of the dockyard extended so as to enclose the newly-acquired property. From what has transpired since the visit of Field-Marshal the Duke of Wellington,Commander-in-Chief,andGeneralthe Marquis of Anglesey, Master-General of the Ordnance to the fortifications at Tilbury Fort, Sheerness, and Chatham, it is contemplated that Woolwich will be made the greatest, as it is certainly will be the securest, naval depot in this kingdom or in the known world. In order to extend the resources and accommodation of the Wool wich dockyard, a jury has been summoned to decide upon the value of the marshy ground ou the west side of Charlton pier, extending as far as the manor-way on the Greenwich side of the dockyard, for the purposeof form ing a basin capable of containing ships and steam-vessels of the first class, for which the place is admirably adapted, the depth along shore on the Kent side being fifteen feet, at low water, close to the land. This spot would be the most eligible of any in the country, from the facilities it possesses of receiving ships in ordinary, instead of allowing so many of them to remain exposed, as is the case when moored in the Medway. It will be recollected that several of the French steamers of war visited Sheerness last year without any pre vious announcement of their visit, and after a short stay returned to Treport, where the King of the French decorated with his own hand several of the non-commissioned officers on board the steamers with the cross of the Legion of Honour, in consequence, it was surmised at the time, of the manner in which the vessel bad arrived at Sheerness, and the satisfactory re ports of the voyage. At the present moment a fleet of French war steamers, in the event of hostilities taking Place, could leave the coast of France under secret orders, and proceed to the Medway, and cut out all the ships in ordinary without much risk, the flag-ship at Sheerness being of no use except to give a passing broad side to the steamers employed upon that service, as at the present period there is not a war steamer of sufficient power to assist at that station. Under these circum stances Woolwich possesses immense advantages, owing to the vicinity of the dockyard to the garrison, and the great resources of every description at the head-quarters of the Royal Artillery. It was no doubt desirable to select the Medway as an eligible situation for ships in ordinary, before the introduction of steam navigation; but since the introduction of that power, and the facili ties with which vessels of the first rate can be towed to the Downs from Woolwich, the advantages and security of the latter naval depot are unquestionable, and have attracted a great share of attention on the part of the authorities, who appear now to be actively engaged in the adoption of measures which cannot fail to be of the utmost importance to the country. SPORTING IN THE HIGHLANDS. "Did you ever see finer weather?" is the constant remark of sportsmen; and certainly few can remember so many weeks pass over with scarce a shower to wet a jacket or gun. Be the days fair or wet, however, grouse do get wild; and by the middle of September grouse shooting is a different kind of sport from that during the first week, when dogs go straight to the coveys, rousing the birds in a compact cluster. Later in the month, they have to maintain a quick pace to keep up with the running broods, which often give dogs and men a march before a shot is fired. This is a " great fact;" but still the sportsman who ranges over the flat, round the hill side, and up and down all the declivities of his moor, can, in many places, carry home his twenty or thirty brace of full-grown birds; and we know of the larger number being more than doubled in one day of late. Deer-stalking has not, on the whole, given an average number. The noble animals have been greatly molested by swarms of flies, which abound in their retreats in the hot weather, causing the stags to leave the corries and take to mountain ridges, where the balls whistle round them in vain ; for only the stalker's skill and patience can bring his rifle within shooting distance. In the forest of Achnacarry, we hear that Mr. Tomline and friends have killed I 1 stags. At Glengary, Lord Hatherton, Mr. Littleton, and Mr. Ellice, shot '2 stags and five roe deer in one day. On Monar Hills, H. W. White, Esq., shot a couple of stags, one of them with large wide-spread horns. Oa the 10th instant, Lord Claude Hamilton shot a stag in the forest of Lochlui chart ; and on the 11th, Sir James J. R. Mackenzie, Baronet, killed a stag with ten antlers, in fine condition. At Garve, a red deer and a roe were shot by A. W. Mackenzie, Esq., yr. of Ord ; also a hind and roebuck by others of the same party. At Rhidarroch, Mr. Hay Mackenzie of Cromertie shot a very fine stag, which weighed, when cleaned, 22 st. 9 lbs., and possessed a very handsome royal head of antlers. On the sth inst., Sir St. George Gore, Bart., captured near Inverbroom the largest and finest stag ever seen on the grounds. At Strathvaich, Sir St. George shot in one day lately 90 brace of grouse, a snipe, and 2 hares; and on the 7th, 76} brace of grouse and 5 hares. A roebuck, with horns curiously differing from the natural form, was shot lately by Mr. Petre, Scatwell. The horns are full-siz , d and completely palmated—the front and back antlers, including the centre one, being a solid mass of bone. A very beautiful specimen of fallow deer was killed the other day by Robert Reid, Esq., Castle Leod. The head had eighteen branches, and was a rare trophy of a variety of deer nearly extinct in this part of the country.—lnverness Courier. RAILWAY SHARE MARKETS. MANCIIESFER, SEPTEMBER 21.

PHENOMENON AT WAINYBROLCII, MONMOUTH SHIRE.—Oa Monday the bees and wasps congregated from east, west, north, and south, and engaged in deadly warfare. They appeared in swarms as far as the eye could see, and the ground for a large space underneath was covered with the dead, mostly wasps. Loss or MAIL BAGS.—On the arrival of the mail cart from the Swindon station on Sunday morning, it was found that the bag containing the letters, &c., for Aldermaston, and other places around here, was missing. Immediately the man was dispatched back to make inquiries, when no tidings could be had of the same. Several large dealers were at the Hind's Head Inn, Aldermaston, awaiting the mail, which should arrive at ten o'clock, when it did not arrive till one o'clock, and then without the letters and papers so anxiously looked for. It is feared the loss will be severe'y felt, as to morrow (Monday) being the great Reading horse, beast, and cheese fair, many of the large cattle dealers stop at this place, Aldermaston, the day before, it being ten miles only from the fair. At this place the stock rest, and money, with orders, are transmitted to the dealers. Sir Howard Elphinstone and party, and Captain Macdonald and party, left Blackwall on Sunday in the General Steam Navigation Company's steam-ship Soho, for Ostend. BOY DROWNED.—Yesterday evening an inquest was held before W. Baker, Esq., at the Bunch of Grapes, Broad street, Ratcliff, on the body of John Digby, a boy aged ten years. James Winn deposed that he and an other boy were with the deceased on the Thames in a boat on Sunday afternoon, about half-past four. The deceased had his hands against a barge pushing the boat off, when he lost his balance and fell into the river. Charles Bigg, a waterman, stated that having been told a boy had fallen into the water, he went to his assist ance ; but as he had disappeared he could not recover him without the aid of the drags, and as there were none near, to his knowledge, he pulled across the river to obtain those which are kept there, and immediately re turned and succeeded in bringing the boy to the surface. He was quite dead. The boy had been under water 20 minutes or so. He felt quite sure that if there had been drags near the spot he could have saved the boy's life. The jury considered it very desirable that drags should be kept at the " New England Lighthouse," and the Coroner said he wo u ld wr it e to t h e Humane Society on the subject. Verdict—" Accidental Death." A ROBBERY FRUSTRATED THROUGH FEAR.—The Excise-office connected with the Lochrin distillery in Gilmore-place was surreptitiously entered on Wednesday evening, last, by means of breaking some panes of glass in one of the windows. Having gained admittance in this way to the outer apartment of the office, the thieves nett forced open two doors, which enablei them to get across to a room in which some boxes, containing wear ing apparel and other articles, were deposited. These they appear to have at once removed to the outer room; and, while looking about to see if anything else could be added to the plunder which they had collected, before making their exit they would seem to have been attracted by a large package, securely wrapped up, and appa rently placed with great care in a quiet nook of the apartment. Curious to know what was in it, they im mediately unloosed the cords and unfolded the sheeting, when, to their extreme horror and alarm, the pale visage of a human form was revealed. Without waiting another moment, they appeared to have darted out of the window, perfectly terror-stricken at the sight, leav ing all their booty behind. It turns out that what ex cited their alarm was the model of a statue, which an artist had left for safety with some of the officials con nected wsth the distillery, while he was on a short tour on the continent.—Scotsman. SURREY ZOOLOGICAL GARDENS.--A grand fire work gala took place last night at these gardens, when the skill of the pyrotechnic artist was tasked to the ut most for a surpassing display of the powers of Nature's free daughter," fire. After a few preliminary fiery fountainsand burning b ouque t s , a m imic naumachia, or sea-fight, betw een a B r i t i s h man - o f- wa r a nd a piratical schooner, was exhibited. This was followed by the descent of Signor Farinelli in a flaming car, surr oun d e d by fireworks ; the s pectacle concluding with the erup tion of Vesuvius, and destruction of Pompeii and Her culaneum. This was excellent, and quite supersedes the necessity of visiting Naples, as we are sure the real affair cannot be half so good. INFORMATIONS UNDER THE FACTORY ACT.--011 Monday last Mr. George Foster, of Horbury, manufac turer, was charged before J. F. Carr and T. H. Mar shall, Esqs., at the Court-house, Wakefield, by Mr. Bates, the sub-inspector of factories, with neglecting to perform certain duties enacted by the Factory Acts. The first information against Mr. Foster was under the 21st section of the Act, which orders that the machinery shall be properly fenced off to prevent accidents. The magistrates inflicted upon the defendant the mitigated penalty of 51. The second charge against Mr. Foster was fir employing a woman named Tamar Heptonstall near the machinery not fenced off; and which he had been ordered to do by the inspector, from which neglect the poor woman had been seriously injured, from her clothes getting entangled in the machinery. The magis trates considered the case to be a flagrant one, and, as it proceeded from the neglect of the defendant, they would inflict a penalty of 201. Mr. Samuel Lee, of Thornes lane, Wakefield, manufacturer, was charged by Mr. Bates with having employed four children without sur geon's certificate, as directed by the 11th section of the Act of William IV., and also with employing the same children before being duly registered. Mr. Leo was fined to the amount of 21. for each child in each offence, making altogether the sum of 164 ,• WORKS by ROBERT J. cuLvERwELL M.D. 31.7Z•C•S' E .
