(Before the COMMoN-SERGEANT and Alderman Sir JOHN KEY.) ,ROmB E Ry AT THE EARL OF AUCKLAND'S —Anna smith, a very respectable young female in appearance, ? t all indicted with stealing , on t he 30th of November tit, several articles of jewellery, a minature of the pre !eta Earl of Auckland's father, a quantity of lace, and Indian work, the property of Frances Harriet Eden, the lister of the present Earl of Auckland. It appeared from the evidence adduced that the Prison er had been in the service of Miss Eden, Zs her Lady's-maid, and that upon her leaving 'er service, she wont to reside with an old lady 15 Sused Neville, at Richmond , and took her boxes there. Suspicion being excited a g ainst the pri ,uner, her boxes were searched, and the property laid 14 the indictment found in them. That property was sworn by Mrs. Wright, the housekeeper of the Earl of Auckland, to belong to Miss Eden. Mr. CLa.nxsori defended the prisoner, and stated that she had informed him that the property had been given to her by Miss Eden. The Learned Counsel remarked il trOti on the course adopted b y the p rosecutor in not bringing 7 f o rward Miss Eden, and handed u p a letter 413 u1 that lady to the prisoner, in which she stated that ,she had no complaints to make a g ainst her when she left ‘er service. Several persons gave the prisoner an excellent cha racter. The COMMON SERGEAN T summed u p , observing that if '1 the prisoner intended to set up the defence that the Property was given to her by Miss Ede n, she ou g ht to '"e produced that lady in Court to prove the fact. The jury Acquitted the prisoner, stating that they thought Miss Eden ought to have been in attendance. The COMBION SERGEANT—She would have been a grist goose if she had. The prisoner was again indicted with stealing 31 towels, the property of the Earl of Derby. This property Was found in the prisoner's boxes. The housekeeper of the Earl of Derby proved the towels to be the Earl's Property, and, stated that Miss Eden was in the habit of visiting at Knowsley, the seat of the Earl of Derby, and ' Pl as s& upon one occasion a ttended b y the p risoner. The () ulcer who took the prisoner into custody stated that She told him that she had bought the towels eight years 11 10 from a person of the name of Fletcher. Mr. PARRY addressed the jury for the prisoner, in the course of which he remarked strongly upon the impro priety of &judge making the observations the Learned Common Ser ge ant had done to t he j ur y in the last 'cue when they had delivered their verdict, especially when there was another indictment against the prisoner. Such observations were most improper, and likely to prejudice the case of any prisoner. The COMMON SERGEANT summed up, in the course of which he stated that he had made the observations he had done not for the purpose of disparaging the verdict of the jury, but in order to justify the magistrate who had committed the prisoner. The jury, after a long consultation, found the prisoner Guilty; and, The COMMON SERGEANT sente ,- led her to seven years' transportation. The mother of the prisoner, who was in court, upon besting the sentence, immediately fell into hysterics, and has carried insensible from the court. " To Roundell Palmer, Esq., 87cC. " P.S.

" Sir,—Being on a tour in Scotland, I did not receive your letter of the 9th inst., until after post-timeyesterd a y . "I have much pleasure in assuring you that I accept with thatks your handsome and gentlemanlike retracta tion of expressions which I am satisfied you would not have used except under the influence of a temporary excitement of feeling, and which from this moment will be entirely dismissed from my mind. " As I consider your letter no less honourable to your self than satisfactory to me, I shall not hesitate to use the permission you give me to make it public, together with this reply.—l remain, Sir, your very obedient servant, " ROUNDELL PALMER. ' 4 "rhe Hon. C. F. Berkeley." A precisely similar letter having been addressed by Mr. Berkeley to Sir William Clay, the following is Sir William's answer:— " have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of yesterday's date, and can have no hesi tation in stating to you in reply that I consider it a full reparation for the observations and expressions to which it refers. " I willingly admit that the position in which you were placed by the decision of the Committee, and the circumstances under which you spoke when the ob servations in question were made, were both of a cha racter to produce not unnaturally much e xcitement of feeling on your part; and as you now state, with an explicitness that does you honour, that in your cooler judgment you regret and disavow the expressions of which, under the influence of that excitement, you were tempted to make use, you may rest assured I shall think of them no more—they will henceforth be to me as if they had never been uttered. " I abstain from any remark on the opinion you ex press upon the merits of the decision of the Committee, the rather that I perceive that it is your intention to bring that decision by petition under the consideration of the House of Commons; but I may state, without impropriety, that the result of a review of the whole case, as brought out in evidence, was to create in the mind of, I believe, every member of the Committee, re gret at the decision which they yet felt—and as I think rightly felt—they had no alternative but to adopt. " I have the honour to be, Sir, your obedient servant, " W. CLAY." TO THE EDITOR OF THE:SUN. Sin,—Having seen in The Sun of yesterday a letter from the respectable firm of Messrs. Simmonds and Co., of Southampton-row, Russell• square, jewellers, impugn ing the correctness of the report furnished to you by me, on Saturday, fr om Cl er k enwe ll Police-court, I think it will be no more than justice to all parties to state, that the report itself is in every respect true, except that the Mr. S. Simmons, jeweller, who was prosecuted in the case, does not reside in Southampton-row, but South ampton-place, Islington. CRICKET. ELEVEN OF ALL lAN L A ISTAND v. TWENTY OF LEEDS AND RICT. Contrary to the general expectation, after the promul gation of a letter in the early part of the season, from the Committee of the " All England Eleven," to the effect that, under no state of circumstances, would that body renew their annual " friendly relations" with the " Men of Leeds," the "Eleven" were, nevertheless, in spite and in the teeth of their own declaration, found on the Victoria Ground at that town (as heretofore) on Monday. Having won the toss they also took the bat in the first instance, and when their last wicket was lowered they had run up a score of 117, almost the largest number they have been able to effect since they quitted town. At the close of Monday's play the scorer's paper presented the following appearance:—All Eng land, first innings, 117; Leeds, first innings (with six wickets to go down), 9. THE HOP-PICKING.—This county is just now suf fering its annual Irish invasion ; thousands of shoeless shirtless, almost clotheless poor creatures have been swarming about during the past week, either seeking employment, or besieging the doors of the union-houses for casual relief. Placards, we understand, are posted in some parts of London saying that hcp-pickers are wanted in Kent ; the consequence is there are hundreds more than can get work. At Farleigh alone we hear that there are full 500 half-starved creatures whom it will be impossible to employ. At Coxheath union, on Satur day night, there was a mob of from 500 to 800, of all ages, clamorous for admission, and threatening an entry by force if denied. The difficulty of providing any sort of a ccommodation for such a host of vagrants may be imagined, and the unavoidable delay enraged them to such a degree that apprehensions were felt for the result. A messenger was sent to the barracks at Maidstone, with information of this state of things, and the troops were kept in readiness to turn out at a minute's notice. Hap pily they were not required. In consequence of the alarm caused by these circumstances, and also by several attacks on individuals and plunder of property, applica tion was made at a special meeting of the magistrates of the district, at the Town-hall, Maidstone, yesterday, to adopt measures for the due protection of the public, when a number of persons recommended by the parish officers were sworn in as special constables for the neigh bouring parishes.—Maidstone Journal of yesterday. STATE 05' TRADE.—MANCHESTER. —Th e remark ably fine weather has as yet failed to produce any fa vourable reaction in our market. During the week trade has been remarkably dull, and yesterday no disposition to operate was manifested on the part of buyers. Fears are entertained that the season will have passed aw a y for large shipments t o the Continent before confidence is restored. The feeling generally is more gloomy than last week. Prices cannot be quoted as quite so firm; foe some goods lower prices have been taken. The ac counts of the forthcoming crop of cotton being so very favourable, that article has given way in Liverpool. As a consequence our buyers here were cautious. On the whole very little business has been done. Spinners are talking of returning to short time when their present engagements are completed. The hom e trade is more satisfactory than the foreign, and during this month and next a fair return is looked for. The return of the state of employment is not so favourable as last week. There are 513 fewer hands at present in work, a decrees! , of 510 working full time, and of those working short time 57. Last week the total number at work was 41,164; this week it is only 40,631. Working full time last week 38,539; this week 37,989. Short time last week 2 ; 605; this week 2,682. THE ROYAL GENERAL ANNUITY SOClETY.—YeS terday evening a meeting of the board of directors of this institution was held at their offices in Basinghall street, City, for general business. The report congratu lated the subscribers on the steady progress which was being made, there being at present ten male and nine teen female annuitants; the former receiving 21. 55., and the latter 11. 10s. per month. These persons comprise decayed merchants, bankers, professional men, trades men, master manufacturers, and their widows, and single females, daughters of persons of such classes. The directors also had the pleasure to state that the former rule, limiting the benefits of this important charity within twenty miles, was altered, leaving it open to ap plicants from all parts of the kingdom. The receipts for the past year were 1,3961. 3s. 2d.; the expenditure Taft a balance of only 801. PENITENT FEMALES REFUGE.—Yesterday the nineteenth annual meeting of the friends of the above institution took place at the asylum, Cambridg e -h eat h Hackney. Mr. J. Dobie in the chair. Th e secretary read the report, from which it appeared that the income of the charity for the past year amounted to 1,4971. 18s. 4d., showing an increase on the previous year of 1451. Ss. Bd. This addition to their income had enabled th e managers to increase the number ofinmates to the fullest extent which the size of the present b u il ding oc cupied by . the charity permitted. They co ntemplated, h owe ver, either building or purchasing more c ommod i ous premises, and it was stated that a sumof 3004 had been i already invested n the funds, which it was intended to devote to that purpose. The report further set forth that since the formation of the society 945 females had been admitted, and that in the p as t year 49 bad been received , who, with 31 leftin the asylum at the period when the last annual report w as made, make 80 persons who have been on the foundation of the charity during the last twelve months. Of these 25 had lost both parents, and 30 had only one parent living ; and of the entire number only 26 were above 20 years of age. Of the 80 females who were received i nto t h e house, 14 were placed in situations, 15 were reconciled and restored to their f riends, 2 left at their own request, 1 was dismissed for bad conduct, and 1 di e d . T he report having been adopted , a committee of man agement for the ensuing year, and a ladies visiting committee, were ap pointed, and the meeting separated. premium on gold at P ar i s MONEY MARKET.—The is 10i per milk, which, at the En g lish Mint price of 31. 175. lOid. per ounce for standard gold, gives an ex change of 25.41; and the exchange at Paris on London at short being 25 35, it follows that gold i s 0.24 per cent. dearer in Paris than in London. By advices from Hamburgh the price of gold is 436 k per ma r k, w hi c h , at the English Mint price of 3/. 17 s. laid. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 13.1(1; an d t h e exchange at Hamburgh on London at short being 13.101, it follows that gold is 0.23 per cent. dearer in Ilamburgb than in London. On Saturday night, the police made a descent into the tapis-francs, near the environs of the halles, and ar rested a great many repris de juslice, and men who could not give a good account of themselves.—Galignani. MARLBRO'-STREET—(THIS DAY.) R o b e rt Beadle, a young man belonging to the Wells street station of the Fire Brigade, was placed before Mr. Hardwick, charged with having assaulted Frederick Mar s h, a tin-plate worker, residing in Castle-street twit. Complainant stated that on the previous evening he went into the Ship public-house in Wardour-street, where the fire occurred on Saturday night. The defen dant was on duty there, and witness asked him about the Are. Defendant refused to answer him, and witness told he was not doing his duty because he would not give him an answer. Some other words followed, and deferiLlant became very abusive, and threatened to put bin: o ut of the house. Defendant then took hold of him by the co;.ts.r and pushed him down on the floor, and struck him several times. Witness then ran out and called a constable, and gave him in charge. Some additional evidence, corroborative of the above having been produced, Mr. Braidwood, the chief superintendent of the Fire Brigade, said, defendant was on duty in the public house. He was sober, and had borne a very good character during the time he had been in the brigade. The accused, in defence said, he was sitting in the public-house, when the complainant and another man came in rather the worse for liquor, and immediately began "chaffing him." He resented the, insult, and eventually tried to put him out of the house. In doing •o, complainant struck him, and he then knocked him sem Males ... Females SPICES.—There is not much demand for Ginger for home trade purposes, but export orders come in more freely. At auction 28 casks and 113 brls of Jamaica were all sold. Of Black Pepper large parcels have come to hand lately, and as orders are small sellers are inclined to accept rather lower rates for all sorts. Of 1,000 bags Malabar offered at auction, a small part only sold at 2jid for fair half heavy grey, whilst 1,000 bags Penang were taken in at 2i-d to 2fd for ord dusty bright grey. White is in fair request privately at from 4d to 6d per lb. Of Cassia Lignea the stock is nearly exhausted, and holders in consequence ask the high rates of 66a to 76s for low to fine, but very little desire is shown to do business. Pimento met with more attention, and realised stiffer rates. For Cloves there is a brisker sale, prices are firmer; Nutmegs are not cheaper, although there are arrivals, and buyers ope rating with caution. Cinnamon is offered at last sale's rates, and there are few buyers. FRUIT.—The value of New Valencia Raisins is still 45s per cwt., but there is not a brisk demand, and arri vals continue to get larger. Old Currants are dull of sale at 34s to 39s per cwt, and there is a fair stock here. SALTPETRE.—British refined is much wanted at 29s 6d to 30s per cwt, and at which there are not will ing sellers. Refiners have many orders on hand, and there is an enlarged consumption. Holders of rough show much firmness; and on the part of exporters and home trade buyers much desire is evinced to operate, whilst the rates paid are fully equal to those previously current. For Nitrate of Soda quotations are 12s 6d to 13s per cwt, and only small parcels have been sold. INDIGO.—For the 14th of October 8,445 chests East India is now declared. There is firmness in the market; and a fair home and export demand exists at prices rather above those of the last quarterly auctions. Spanish is held for fully last weeks' rates. At auction 140 serons Guatemala were disposed of 2s to 3s 9d for cortes and Sobres. OlLS.—Arrivals of Fish Oils are again of little con sequence, and as deliveries continue to get larger holders display firmness, and refrained from submitting any to public sale since this day week. Seal has been in excel lent demand, and prices are looking up. Southern is much wanted, and better prices are again paid. Cod has been sold to a fair extent at 231 104 to 241 per tun. There is greater firmness on the part of holders of Sperm; buyers also operated with more freedom by pri vate treaty, and stiffer rates are paid. None has been offered at auction and their is an improving consump tion Linseed Oil is not much wanted for home trade purposes, and exporters also operate with less free dom; prices are not so firm, and rule at 22s 3d to 22s ficl per cwt on the spot. For forward delivery there has been only a small amount of business concluded, al though sellers are disposed to accept 22s 6d to 22s 9d. There is an active demand for Rapeseed Oil. In Olive large sales have been made, and higher rates are paid; the stock is still getting smaller. Prices have ceased to decline for Cocoa Nut, still the demand does not get better, and a small part only of 480 pkgs at auction was sold, 393 6d to 40s 6d per cwt for good and fine quality. For Palm an active demand has been experienced, and advanced rates are paid. Lard Oil is not much in demand. TALLow.—There is still a brisk demand for Russian on the spot for all purposes, and prices are still on the ad vance, fine new P. Y. C. realising 47s 6d per cwt. On the part of holders there is also much confidence. For delivery a good business has been concluded for the last three lino , . ~ _•‘-00,,, , tie year at 47s 3d to 47s 6d, and some sales /Save - - .7.. • for the early part of 1849 at 48s. There . is an ac •nd for home made, and prices have risen to 47s •7s 6d for prime melted, nett cash, but the quantity on offer is yet large. Other kinds met with ready buyers, and at advanced quotations. The value of Rough Fat is 2s Bid per stone, which is an advance. Tallow is is to 2s per cwt higher than at this time last year. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. OLD COURT. PERJURY.—The Trial of John Brooks (continued from our Afternoon Edition of yesterday). Mr. T. Blanchard Howard swore positively that his brother came to his warehouse on the 10th of April, 1834, and directed the transfer of the 471. 3s. 6d. to his account. _ . . Mrs. Chadwick proved that the debt owed by her husband was deducted from the purchase money of the property referred to. Several most respectable witnesses—Mr. Evil, Mr. J. K. Welch, Mr. Parker and others—stated that they had known the defendant for many years, and that they believed him to be a man of the highest character. Mr. PARRY replied, and the jury unanimously returned a verdict of Not Guilty, declaring that they gave credit to the evidence for the defence, and not for the prosecution. SOUTH-EASTERN AND CONTI NENTAL STEAM-PACKET COMPANY. A half-yearly meeting of the shareholders of this company was held yesterday afternoon, at the Bridge House Hotel, London-bridge; M. L. Pritchard, Esq., the deputy chairman, presiding. The report stated that the amount received on shares was 109,242 L, and that the outlay for ships, machinery, Sze., exclusive of the reserved fund of 610,6191. 25., was 121,771/. 7s. 7d., leaving a balance due on shares of 12,735/. 7s. 7d. The amount of revenue for the last six months was 10,759/. 195., and the expenditure 7,811/. 13s. 9d., leaving a balance applicable to the dividend of 2,948/. ss. 10d. The directors recommended a dividend of ss. per share, which would leave a balance of 167/. 15s. in the hands of the company. The CHAIRMAN made a few observations upon the subject of the report, and stated that there was a falling off, as compared with the previous half-year, of 3,512/. 2s. 6d., but said he hoped, from the tranquility which was now partly established on the continent, and the opening of the Great Northern Railway, that brighter prospects were before them. The report was then received and adopted, a divi dend of five shillings per share declared, and a vote of thanks passed to the chairman, when the meeting se parated.

(From the London New Price Current of Sept. 19.) SUGAR.—To -day there was no change for the better in the position of the raw sugar market. Holders of West India refused to make any further concession in prices, but on the other hand refiners and grocers ope rated with caution, and privately the purchases did not exceed 500 hhds, &c. There is a desire to accept former low rates for all sorts. At suction 1112 hhda, and 6 trcs of Barbadoes Sugar, a small part only sold at easier rates ; fine yellow 40s to 425, good 38s to 39s 41d, mid 36s 6d to 38s, and low 36s per cwt. REFINED.—To-day prices are further depressed for refined goods; brown grocery lumps were offered at 48s to 48s 6d, and Standard lumps 49s 6d per cwt, still tow buyers were to be met with. For Bonded Crushed Sugar the market is firm, and a good demand exists, first sort 27s to 27s 6d, and second 26s to 26s 6d per owt. MAURITIUS.—This afternoon there was not much de sire evinced to do business in Mauritius Sugar, and 4,277 bags at auction went 6d per cwt cheaper, but the whole sold; middling yellow at 34s 6d to 355, fine brown 33s 6d, syrupy 33s to 378, inferior 28s to 30s 6d, washed 32s to 36s per cwt. The chief portion was out of con dition. EAST INDIA.—This afternoon two parcels of Bengal Sugar amounting to 2,900 bags were offered at . auction, and the whole sold ; white at full rates, but grainy went rather cheaper ; Benares, fine white sold at 42a to 435, middling and good 40s to 41s 6d, damp and washed 378 6d to 41s, fine strong grainy yellow 39s to 41s, good 38s 6d, middling 36s 6d to 37s 6d, fine white 43s 6d to 475, damp and washed 37s to 47s per cwt. FOREIGN. —To-day there was no public sale of Foreign Sugar, but privately 2,C00 chests of fine yellow Savannah YOUR REPORTER. SETTLING FOR THE DONCASTER ST. LEGER.— We have received a letter from one of the parties men tioned in our report of the racing at Doncaster of Friday last, as one of the trio of defaulters, who had left Don caster without settling their accounts, and who adopts in his communicatioa to us the soubriquet of the " Boy Jones," by which he is known on the turf. The " Boy Jones " declares it was incorrect; to state that he was " one of the three that had altogether absented them selves on the settling morning," cr that he was at the rooms pa) ing as fast as he received, until several par tiea pounced upon him and insisted upon being paid, whether he had it or not; that he was glad to get out of their clutches, as " they would not listen to reason," or take transfers of what he had to receive; that he was thus made a defaulter " before the idea entered his head ;" that he was at least an hour " endeavouring in vain to appease their fears, one after another;" and that he was at last obliged to withdraw to an inn in the out skirts of the town, to which he was pursued by two gal lant captains and three other persons, one of them a pro fessor of pugilism. One of these pursuers stood over him with a poker, whilst another locked the door of the room, and he was compelled to write an I 0 U for 4001. He complains that some parties found him " green," and " have had good pickings;" and as they have done all in their power to injure him, they may get their money how they can, or at least wait his pleasure," parties not fre quenting Tattersalls excepted. Till he saw his name ( t he "Boy Jones") in the papers,he intended to pay every one (why the insertion of his name altered his very laud able intention he does not explain) and that he had written a letter to two well-known sporting writers to that effect. He thinks this last fact proves his honesty s e o n m t io e ; h a but s stronger n is g e probable n c e h i t s o c c r o e n d c i u t o r r i s n m h a i s y o r p e i BURNING OF THE OCEAN MONARCH.—Yesterda y u n q f i u o i n ri re.i Times. t there was a large crowd assembled at the Abney Park Cemetery, Clapton, to witness the interment of Bacon, the late master of St. Luke's workhouse, who lost his life on board this ill-fated vessel. Ile had been for many years the master of the above institution, but some few weeks back he deserted his wife and children, and, with the wife of the schoolmaster of the workhouse, started by the Ocean Monarch for America, with which place he was well acquainted, having some years ago travelled nearly all through the States in search of the rate-col lector wg e aa c ays t d pounds oe washed n o y f, a St. and was nL of w ashore,u ak thes e ' Luke's, parish, u w ar b h e do o u t money. absconded te n there.

The body of th e gu il ty partner of his flight has not yet been found. ACCIDENT AT SAW MlLLS.—Yesterday a ft ernoon a most severe and probably fatal accident occurred at th e North Green Saw Mills, situate in North-street, City road. A boy named George Castles, about fourteen years of age, who was employed there, by some means g ot entangled in the machinery attached to one of th e saws, and was slightly cut in the hand, and while en deavouring to disengage himself, he unfortunately fell w ith one of his legs against the saw, which cut instantly t h ro ugh the centre of the thigh, completely severing the limb from the body. Such surgical assistance as could found l3 r A e a c bceo : - his pocket were sent to t own , an d his frienedsa. be had on the spot having been obtained to stop the effu sion of b'..ood, he was conveyed to St. Bartholomew's Hospital. R YE .—VACANT APARTMENTS IN YORES' TOWER. —lt is a gratifying sight to observe the doors of our borough gaol standing open, more particularly just at this time, when from the influx of strangers waiting for the hop -picking to commence, and several railway labourers who had come to reside here, a contrary re sult might have been expected. There has not been a single prisoner in gaol for the last five or six clays.— Laser Advirtiser. found buyers for exphi tation at 22s to 22s Gd, but chit 11 . 1 at 22s 6 I; a cargo ut mid yellow at 188. COFFEE.--This alerneon Plantation Ceylon Iva, dealt in wirl, fr.. edom, and 1.596 bats at auction sold at. firm rates; good 55s to 5Gs, mid 42s to 495, low mid 39s to 41a, fine fine ord 35s Gd to 3Ss, tine ord 303 to good ord 2Ss to 29s Gd, low 26s Gd to 275, pea berry 47 Gd to 565, damaged 22s to 43s 6d.

TEA.—Green has been operated in with caution, anti as there is a larger quantity en offer, prices have slightly given way. For Black there is less demand, and pre vious rates cannot be obtained, although there is no material increase of supply. The value of common sound Congou is Bd, and good ord 83-d to 9d per lb. SrmiTs.—Brandy has been in excellent request, and in consequence of a decreasing stock, and large deli veries, holders display much firmness. Cognac, best brands of the vintage of 1846 is selling at 4s 10d to ss, ditto 1847 at 3s 10d to 4s, inferior 2s 6d to 3s Bd, and Bor deaux 2s to 2s Gd. The rates asked for Geneva are 2s to 2s ld for shipping kind, and 2s 8d to 3s 6d for home trade sort; the stock does not get larger. British made Spirit still finds a ready sale at former rates; there is also much firmness in the market, and stocks are small. To day there was much dullness in the market for Rum, and a desire is shown to sell—proof Leewards at is 7d fur plain quality, and East India is 5d to is 6d per gallon. RICE.—To-day little desire was shown to do business in East India Rice by private treaty, and 2,317 bags Madras at public sale went 6d cheaper—good pinkey white at 9s 6d to 10s, middling 9s Gd, good and fine cargo 8s 6d to 9s, ordinary Bs, good pearl barley 9s, damaged 3s 6d to 9s per cwt. Cocoe.—For West India the market looks firm, and little has been offered at public sale. Purchases to a fair extent have been made by private treaty upon fully former terms, red fetching 39s to 445, and grey 38s to 42s per cwt. There are still few buyers of foreign, and 30s to 34s is the value according to quality. MOLASSES.—Few sales have been raado by private treaty, and sellers are disposed to accept rather lower rates. At Auction 100 puns of old West India were taken in at 15s per cwt, finest new will not fetch above 18s 6d. The stock is still much smaller than last year. Bengal Treacle is held for 15s to 16s, but few buyers are to be met with. FRAN CE. [The following appeared in our Third Edition of last night]:— A review of 14 battalions took place yesterday in the Champ de ➢tars, in presence of a large assemblage. A letter from Dieppe, in contradiction to a former account, published by the Government, from New foundland, states that the cod fishery had not been very productive this season, and that several vessels had lost their boats, and sustained great damage in their rigging in a violent gale which prevailed on the 22d and 23d ult. " We learn from Lyons," says the Debats, "that there has been another serious disturbance at La Guillotiere. The following are the circumstances : The cure of Notre Dame, in consequence of some differences, the particulars of which have not reached us, had retired from the parish until he thought the adverse feelings against him had subsided. A few days ago he returned, and, notwithstanding his being received with charivaris, officiated every morning in the church before the usual time of its being opened. The charivaris, however, increased into riots, and it became necessary for the police to interfere and put them down ; which was done without bloodshed, although the parsonage had been invaded, and the windows and furniture broken and destroyed." The Sardinian Government has sent an order for twenty thousand uniform coats to three mercantile houses of Lyons. SAXONY. A Leipsic letter of the 14th states that the insur rection at Chemnitz had been crushed by the ener getic intervention of the troops. All the barricades were taken and destroyed. The obstinate defence of some points, and the fire kept up by the insurgents from the houses of the Johanisgasse, have made many victims. The workmen had fourteen killed and forty were grievously wounded; some accounts represent the killed on both sides as twenty. It had been ascertained that the insurrection arose from political causes, probably republican attempts. The town was being rigorously watched, but no fear was entertained of a renewal of disturbances. A battery of artillery and 4,000 troops were in the town or the immediate vicinity. SICILY. The Risorgimento of Turin of the 14th contains a proclamation from the Government of Palermo, an nouncing the fall of Messina after four days' defence, and the necessity in which the Messinians were to abandon their town, become a mas s o f ruins. It then proceeds to call upon the people for vengeance; a levy en masse is decreed. " War, then," it says, " war of extermination against the Bourbons ! Messina, Messina! shall be our war-cry, and recollecting that that heroic city, whose name will live eternally in history, has suffered Itself to be destroyed and reduced to ashes, without consenting to any conditions, without treating with the enemy, our courage like that of the Messinians, will become fury !" Further accounts add that the reported defection of Catania from the Sicilian camp is false. The Piedmontese Gazette of the 14th publishes te legraphic dispatches, stating that the Vesuvius steamer had been ordered by the Sicilian Govern ment to land troops at Milazzo; that the Neapolitan troops that had advanced from Messina had been re pulsed on the Bth, and that the Government had ordered the immediate formation of seven camps, viz., at Alilazzo, Taormina, Catania, Syracuse, Girgenti, Trapani, and Palermo. All the armed forces are divided into national guard, regular troops, and com panions of arms ; voluntary squadrons and paid squadrons under the command of the first officers of the island. GUTTA PERCHA WORKS. We lately visited the extensive works belonging to the Gutta Percha Company, in Wharf-road, City road, and confess that we were delighted and asto nished. The premises in which the business of the company is carried on cover a large area of ground. Several floors of the building are devoted to the operations of the workmen, amounting ..to nearly 170 individuals, including a sprinkling of stout, hearty looking boys. The basement is occupied by two steam-engines, without whose presence the works would be by no means complete. These groan from " early morn till dewy eve ' in turning lath es i n th e engineering department, in kneading the gutta percha, cutting out soles and heels for boots and shoes, rolling out driving-bands of every dimension, and heating the steam-chests, by which the gutta percha is ren dered pliable and fit for the hands of the workmen. On the principal floor there are several powerful hydraulic presses, used in the process of manufacture; and we had the good fortune to witness the produc tion • of a complete dessert service of the most chaste and elegant pattern, and in imitation of gnarled oak. The subjects of adornment were brought out in high relief, and after undergoing the process of varnish ing, were surprisingly beautiful, light, and incapable of being fractured or broken by a fall or a blow. Some of these sets were of the vine-leaf pattern, in close imi tation to nature. These things were pressed out with some rapidity, but not without great manual labour, notwithstanding the aid of the powerful presses alluded to. Inkstands of the most beautiful character, were also fashioned in a short time; indeed, ;all "sorts of ornaments, elaborated with the most ingenious de vices, were made during our stay. We observed a vast deal of ornamental work, intended to supersede the labour of the carver. There were frames of large dimensions ready for the reception of pictures. We were particularly struck with the appearance of one intended for a large pier-glass. The foliage was of the most sumptuous workmanship, and possessed a sharpness and finish which the hand of man could scarcely accomplish. A design for a bible cover was exhibited. The subject harmonised with the nature of the book it was intended to enclose, and was in bold relief. It is believed that gutta percha will, in a short time, be in general use among bookbinders, not only in the shape of massive covers, but to supersede the present cotton binding, which has so pretty an appearance, but is not of that lasting character as to induce persons to adopt it in cases where strength and durability are required. In other portions of the factory workmen were employed in making instruments used by surgeons, to be employed in cases of a delicate nature; others were finishing off the nu merous objects just turned out of the moulds. Amongst the articles of curiosity we observed several yards of gutta percha rendered exceedingly thin by machi nery, and intended for ladies' dresses ; it was of a light pink colour, by no means displeasing to the eye, and possessed of great strength. By the aid of deli cate machinery the gutta percha was run out into thread, to be used in the manufacture of ladies' work bags, fishing-nets, and for a hundred other purposes. Large tubing, and some with an inconceivably small bore, was run out to lengths of vari o u s dimensions. Waggon and cart harness, of enormous strengtb t co t m; bined with lightness, we observed hanging up in the es t a blishment, besides gentlemen's riding whips, and thongs of every kind. Greatly as we were delighted with all these things, we had yet another treat to come, which infinitely surpassed anything we had een. We were shown several specimens of enormous pannelling. in imitation of ancient oak, on which the carving of the original design was brought up with remarkable fidelity. Considering that gutta percha is an indestructible material, we have little hesitation in stating, that the mansions of the nobility will soon be decorated with ornamental work produced by this new system of multiplying objects produced by the ancients to their glory and eternal honour. The gutta percha works are under the direction of Mr. Frederick Moore, a gentleman of great intelligence and me chanical knowledge, and we advise all persons, who have a few occasional hours of le isure, to p a y a visit to Wharf-road, and examine this really wonderful_ museum of curiosities. The utmost f a cilit y is afforded :o visitors.— Weekly Dispatch. It is stated as a fact, that since the late insurrection in Paris, there has been a large importation of human teeth into this country, which have been taken from the corpses of the insurgents and their opponents slain during the battles of the barricades, the object of the importation being to supply the makers of artificial teeth with materials for their business, (to us, at least) a disgusting practice, and fraught, we conceive, with dan ger to those who wear them, inasmuch as it is quite pos sible they may convey any disease with which their original possessors were affected to their subsequent wearers. We therefore consider that the newly improved Mineral Teeth, just produced by Mr. Moggridge, the Dentist, of Old Burlington-street, which most accurately represents the human teeth in that peculiar bony enamel ewaY has,lpearly as to give the a m p a p n e a a g r e a d n c b e y colouring he rin t gor tinting them so opaque and semi-transparent effect of the real tooth. Those, therefore, who require such things, need never fear their detection under any circumstances, are free from any of the dange rs we before while th e y at the same time they are perfectly orrodible and free from any smell or taste. DItEADFIL RAILWAY ACCIDENT.—CIIELTENZIAM, MONDAY.—An inquest has been held at the Compasses Inn here, near the Great Western Railway station, on the bodies of three railway labourers, viz., Joel Witte, aged 32, William Bull, 24; and John Newman, 32, who were killed on Friday afternoon by a train passing over them at 'latherley bridge, near this town. The men were engaged in laying ballast upon the line of the Bristol and Birmingham Railway, jointly used by the Midland and Great Western Railway Com panies (being constructed on the double broad and nar row gauge), when a luggage train of 54 waggons came down from Cheltenham, and while these men, and one or two others, were absorbed in counting the carriages, an up train came up on the broad gauge unnoticed by them, and, passing over them, killed three men on the spot, dreadfully mutilating two others, named Wilks and Ford.. The coroner (Mr. Lovegrove) having addressed the jury on the nature of the injury, witnesses were examined as to the manner in which the accident occurred. The catastrophe having been proved to result from tb e care lessness of the men killed, the jury returned a yl_rdiet of " Accidental death,"
