The condition of the pro duce was good, but—owing to the favourable weather, and the satisfactory accounts respecting the crops—the trade ruled very inactive, and prices had a drooping tendency. The market was moderately supplied with foreign wheat. The transactions were mostly of a retail character. In prices, however, scarcely any change took place. Floating cargoes of grain were in but moderate request at late rates. The supply of barley on sale was moderate. The trade was quiet, but at full prices. Malt sold slowly at late rates, There was a good supply of oats on sale. Good and fine samples moved off steadily at full prices; otherwise the oat trade was dull at barely previous rates. Beans and peas were dull on rather easier terms. For flour there was only a moderate demand at lat rates. ARRIVALS THIS WEEK. Wheat. Barley. Malt. Oats. Flour.

MONEY MARKET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE, TWELVE O'CLOCK. The Money Market continues to present the same appearance of stringency as it has during the last few days. The brokers ask 3f per cent. for the best bills, and, as a consequence, the Bank is still negotiating the principal discount business brought forward. The directors of the Land Securities Company have issued their report, showing a profit of £2614, which they recommend to be carried forward. The Metropolitan Sewage Company have, it is understood, made their first contract with a farmer in the neighbourhood of Barking. The commercial public will learn with satisfaction that Mr. Thornton, the English Minister at Buenos Ayres, is to proceed to Rio to re-open diplomatic relations with the Brazilian Empire• . The Merchant Shipping Company have issued their first report, which states that the net profits are £33,080 from the completed voyages of 12 ships, and from the business of the dockyard during that period. The directors recommend the pay ment of a dividend of 10s. per share, free of income tax, in addition to the interim dividend of 38. per share already paid, being together at the rate of more than 10 per cent. per annum on the paid-up capital of the company. These will absorb £6,144 2s. Bd. ; to the opening of a reserve and depreciation account, £20,000 ; leaving to be car ried to profit and loss new account, £6,936 12s. 6d. The Marseilles Extension Railway and Land Company requires a capital of £400,000, in 20,000 shares of, £2O each, 7,000 of which are stated to have been already subscribed, and 3,000 are re served for issue as paid-up shares. The objects of the company are, first, to construct a railway about nine miles in length from the " Old Port" of Mar seilles to Podestat, to afford increased facilities for the commerce and manufactures of the town and port ; secondly, to acquire land on both sides of the line throughout its length, for building and other purposes, to which great value Will be given by the construction of a railway. The reputation of Marseilles as the first city of France is well known, second only to Paris in population and wealth ; its position and capabilities give it the command of French commerce in the Mediter ranean. The pecuniary results expected are exceed ingly favourable. A large income will, no doubt, be derived from the railway, besides which good Profits will be realised by the sale of the land. The railway to the Old Port will no doubt secure a very large amount of goods traffic, as the line will pass through populated districts containingfactories, ke. The shares have been dealt in at the Stock Exchange at 1/ to 2. The General Credit Company have notified with regard to the approaching conversion and unifica tion of the Internal Turkish debt, that the prevalence of cholera and the consequent quarantine regula tions having delayed the arrival of the official verifi cations from Constantinople, the arrangements for the purpose will be deferred from the Ist to the 15th of August. The eighteenth half-yearly meeting of share holders of the National Discount Company was held to-day. The report, which was adopted, stated that the accounts ending June last show evidence of the steady progress of the business of the company. The gross profits for the last half-year amount to £112,745 14s. 9d., and after deducting the current expenses, directors' and auditors' remuneration, Writing off in their -entirety all bad and doubtful debts, and reserving for rebate of interest on bills not yet due '£36,571 Is. id., there remains the 81113 1 of £65,339, Id., which, with the addi tion of the balance brought forward from the 31st December last, will then amount to £70,092 Os. sd. These satisfactory results will enable the directors, after appropriating £60,000 to the payment of a dividend at the rate of twenty per cent. per annum, free of income tax, to carry forward to the next half-year's profit and loss ac count the sum of £10,092 Os. sd. The dividend will be payable on and after the Ist of August. Two O'CLOCK. At the Paris Bourse this morning, according to Reuter's telegram, the 3 per Cent. Rentes, were 67f. 60c. The English Stock Market has shown but little animation, and prices continue to exhibit a down ward tendency. The attendance of late has shown a marked diminution, the public having now taken their usual holiday vacation. Consols are 898 90 for money, and for the account 898 90 1-16.

PRESIDENT LINCOLN'S FUNERAL.—The bills con sequent upon the death of Mr. Lincoln, including those for decorating public buildings and those for tho funeral, have all been delivered to Secretary Harlan. The aggregate is but a trifle over $25,000, while the expense of President Harrison's funeral, when the display of mourning was much less general, and the ceremonies much less imposing, was $30,000.—New York Times. LIGHTNING AND THE TELEGRAPH.--On Thursday last Banffshire was visited with a slight thunder storm, and the lightning interfered to an unusual extent with the telegraph wires on the lower portion of the Strathisla or Banffshire Railway. About half-past two o'clock in the afternoon, when the rain was accompanied by several smart peals of thunder and flashes of lightning, the electric fluid entered the railway station at Tillynaught, running along the wires and penetrating the box of the telegraph instrument, setting the place on fire. Fortu nately there was no person at the instrument at the time. The station agent happened to be outside, and hearing a sharp report inside, he entered and found smoke and fire issuing from the box. Opening the door of it he found it was in flames, and had to expend some pailsfal of water before the fire was extinguished. Otherwise they eis no doubt the whole establishment would soon have been burnt. It was discovered on examination that the wires leading to the telegraph instrument, and bonnected with the battery, were completely destroyed—the gutta percha reduced to a cinder, and some of the wire itself quite melted and run ning on the floor. Otherwise, apart from the charring of the box, no material damage wes done, the instrument itself and the batteries having escaped injury. At Banff, Lady's-bridge, and Portsoy, the magnetic coils were burnt, the small wires in some instances being fused into a mass, the needles in every instance completely demagnetised, and the instruments, of course, rendered unworkable. Above Tillynaught Junction no damage was done, the lightning, in so far as the telegraph was concerned, confining itself to the fork below, towards Banff on the one hand and Portsoy on the other.—Banffshire Journal. THE SURVEY OF JERUSALEM AND THE ADJACENT COUNTRIES.—CoIoneI James publishes the gratify ing intelligence that the party of Royal Engineers from the Ordnance Survey, which left England under the com mand of Captain Wilson, on the 12th of Sept. last, for the purpose of making a survey of Jerusalem, and levelling from the Mediterranean to the Dead Sea, have accom plished their task, and arrived in England on the 10th inst. Colonel James has received the authority of the Lords of the Treasury for publishing the plans, sections, &c., and hopes to be able to add to these photozincographic copies of about 100 photographs of the most interesting places included within the area of survey. The levelling from the Mediterranean to the Dead Sea has been per formed with the greatest possible accuracy, and by two in dependent observers, using different instruments; and the result, Colonel James believes, may be relied upon as being absolutely true to within three or four inches. The depression of the surface of the Dead Sea on March 12, 1865, was found to be 1,292 feet, but from the line of drift wood observed along the border of the Dead Sea, it was found that the level of the water at some period of the year, probably during the winter freshets, stands two feet six inches higher, which would make the least depression 1,289.5 feet. Captain Wilson also learnt from inquiry among the Bedouins, and from European residents in Palestine, that during the early summer the level of the Dead Sea is lower by at least six feet ; this would make the greatest depression to be as near as possible 1,298 feet. Colonel James adds—" It may interest those who have subscribed to the fund for paying for the survey and levelling to know that my estimate for the survey was £5OO and the cost £519 10s. Id., the esti mate for the levelling was £2OO, and the cost £214155. 6d., and that this small excess was caused by the unexpected detention of the party at Alexandria for a fortnight, in consequence of an accident to the mail steamer in the Red Sea."

RESUMED INQUIRY.-(THIS DAY.) This morning Dr. Lankester, for the fifth time, presided over a jury, at the British Stores, New-street, Portland town, for further inquiry relative to the death of Mdlle. Marie Bullet, the young French lady who died at 28, Portland-terrace, St. John's-wood, after the procuration of abortion. Mr. Montague Williams and Mr. Lewis again appeared for their respective clients. Mrs. Georgiana Friend was first examined. She said she knew a lady calling herself Marie Bullet. She spent ten or eleven days in witness's mother's house, in St. George's-road, Pimlico. She came about the 9th or 10th of March last, and left on the 21st. She came in a cab by her self. She bad lodgings there. A gentleman canie there also, and on the second day he gave a card bearing the name of Francis Moret, Athenaeum Club. He came to visit the young lady. He said, on the first occasion, a young French lady was committed to his care, the family being highly respectable, but had met with misfortunes. This was before the arrival of the young lady. He said his trust was given him by a mutual friend. After the young lady left a passport was found on her bed from Brazil, made out in the Spanish language relative to herself. It was dated Rio Janeiro, January 7, 1865. She had some luggage in a box, and a large tin case. By a Juror—No other gentleman than the one named called upon deceased, nor in fact any other-person. In answer to the Coroner—Witness described the ap pearance of Mario Bullot, which agreed with the passport. By a Juror—The gentleman never slept at witness's mother's house. She would know him again if she saw him. He was about 61 or 62 years of age. By the Crown—Mdlle Ballot ostensibly went to Paris accompanied by a servant, but on arriving at Charing cross station the servant was dismissed. Witness did not receive any letters for her from Paris, but she had heard one read after Mdlle. Ballot left. Witness found a piece of a French paper while Mdlle. Ballot was in the house referring to Monsieur Ballot, who had been tried and sentenced to five years' imprisonment. Mrs. Eliza Davis, of 2, Upper Belgrave-place, said Marie Bullot came to reside in her house on the Bth of March and stayed a week. A gentleman called about the 4th or sth of that month and engaged apartments for her as a boarder for six months. He called four or five times and took her out for a walk. Ho was a tall man about 60 years old. Witness last saw her on the 19th March, she having called for some linen which had been at the laundress's. She said she came from Paris to England to learn English. (Witness identified the boxes, blue bonnet, and earrings which were produced.) By the Clown—Witness was positive about the Bth of March. She kept books, but had not got them with her. The previous witness was here recalled, and, relative to the date of the arrival of Mdlle. Bullet, said she received it from her sister. Miss Arabella Friend was next called, and could not re member the date on which Mdlle. Bullot arrived at their house. It was somewhere about the middle of March, and she remained there about 10 or 11 days. She had no means of speaking positively as to the date. She had a small pencilling dated March 21st, but she could not tell to what it related, By a juror—The young lady paid ono week's rent, and stayed a few weeks afterwards. She said she was going to Paris. They had no other recommendation than that of the gentleman. The Coroner said that the evidence clearly pointed to some gentleman, and the question was whether the jury would adjourn for his appearance, after being served with a summons. Mr. Lewis said if it were the wish of the jury he would produce the gentleman. The jury said that was their wish. Mrs. Oliver, the landlady of the house where deceased died, deposed to the soiled linen being sent away to wash. They were sheets marked " Verner." They were put away by the gentleman, and witness's servant was after wards told to fetch them from a greengrocer named Hodges. The sheets were sent away on the Friday, the day before the death of the deceased. Witness changed the sheets twice on account of their being slightly soiled. Hodges, the greengrocer, was sent for, but he stated that neither he nor his wife reeeived the sheets to wash. It was his servant, who was then out of town. The question of shrieks having been heard as proceed ing from deceased was referred to, Mrs. Oliver denied that there wore any shrieks. Tho Coroner said the question was, whether improper means had been used to procure abortion. It did not fol low that in such a case shrieks would be heard. Mr. Francis Mowatt here entered the inquest room. He said he lived in Eccleston-squaro. He knew Marie Bullot. Ho took lodgings for her. He was not aware when he took the lodgings that she was pregnant. Between three and four years ago, when in Paris with a friend, they met Marie Bullet accidentally at a shop. She was crying bitterly, owing to some difference about money with her employer, which she could not replace. After inquiries they gave her 500 f., the amount required. She called at their hotel several times, when she said her life was insupportable, and she wanted to go to the Brazils—Rio Janeiro. Witness and his friend paid her passage, together with something extra, and she went to Rio Janeiro in April or May, 1863, about ten months after their first meeting with her. He subsequently heard from her in London, she stating that she was tired of Rio Janeiro, and wanted to do something in her own business—a dressmaker—with his help. She was then in a French house at the top of the Haymarket. Witness's friend having died, he told Marie Bullot that h could not do anything for her. She then requested that he would gee her lodgings until she could do for herself. He obtained lodgings for her, and eaw her there, but only in the presence of other people. On her arrival from the Brazils she had another project, the rearing of silkworms, and for this purpose went to Forge d'Allais, in the depart ment of the Gard, South of France. Some time after wit ness received a note from her, in which she regretted hav ing left London, and stated that she should return. He wrote back to her discouraging her, but she insisted on his taking lodgings for her. He received a telegraphic mes sage from her on Wednesday, the 21st June, stating that she would arrive at Charing-cross that evening. He went there, and took a bed for her at the Charing-cross Hotel. He called upon her the next day, when she told him she had had a bad sea voyage. The next day ho took her to 28, Portland-terrace, when she told him she was pregnant. She told witness that she had lived with a French gentleman at Lisle as his mistress, and that that gentleman was then living in the South of France. She told him of her sea sickness, that she had slipped down on the deck of the vessel, and her fear that it would be serious. Witness recommended that a medical gentleman should be called in, and she desired a French doctor. On Wednesday, the 28th ult., he called about two o'clock, when the landlady said the French lady had been taken ill, and she had sent her servant in a Hansom cab for two doctors. He saw Dr. Meredyth subsequently, when he was told by that gentleman that she had miscarried. The child was about four months old. Dr. Meredyth said she at became a v was getting on we ll .

Dr. Meredyth brought in another doctor with him, and they attended on her immediately. Witness heard her moan ing when he knocked at the door, and on Dr. Meredyth appearing, witness expressed his fear that something was wrong, but Dr. Meredyth, although in a somewhat doubt aerntic7ulaa and danger. dBinth eNit evening en went ftuhlmannert, to his said there wa s dinner —between —and then heard that the young woman was dead. Wit ness had recommended a French nurse. He believed that she was well attended to in fact, had every attention. . - By a Juror—Witness did walk out with deceased occa sionally. He believed that the slip on, the deck of the ves sel had produced the miscarriage. By the Coroner—Witness had not seen the child. At the request of deceased he bad purchased a pair of sheets for her, and applied to a greengrocer to have others washed. By a Juror—Witness was not a medical man, and all ho knew of the caso was what he had been told by the medical man and the deceased. He merely visited the young woman. as a friend. There being no further evidence, the coroner referred to the whole of the evidence and the suspicion that had been attached thereto. He then alluded to the explanation that had been made by Mr. Mowatt, and after an allusion to the me di ca l evidence left the jury to decide upon their verdict. The jury then re tired, and, af ter an absence of half an hcur, abortion,i•eturned but the h following poowringduce4 unanimous verdict—" Death from there was not sufficient ev idence to show'," CLIFTON COLLEGE.—The annual meeting of share holders in this institution Was held yesterday, the Rev. J. Hoyworth in the chair. The report stated that the number of pupils had risen during the past year from 222 to 235. A feeling tribute was also paid to the memory of the late Canon Guthrie, chairman of the council, and it was resolved to establish a scholarship of £5O per annum, to be called the " Guipie Scholarship," in commemoration of the services rendered to the College by the late Canon. The examiners, the Rev. G. S. Ward and Mr. H. Sedg wick, pro nounced the work of th e sc h olars to b e very satis factory. The prizes were distributed by the Principal, the Rev. J. Percival. DROWNED IN ONE FOOT OF WATER.—On Thurs day evening last Joshua M'lntosh M'Leod, a fine not been over three minutes u toy agedls months, anti only son of M r . J a mes M'Lood, ho t k of md h u ee ll his death by drowning in To house,-d3 nlianhdull'e methad from under th e eye o f hi s mo th er , o s m e m r , 111 d i when she went to look for him. For about 10 minutes the mother, assisted by several others, searched in vain, but at last found the little fellow in part of the mill-dam where the water was only one foot deep, head downwards, and quite dead. It is supposed that he had been chasing some ducks, and had ventured after them into the dam, where he had met his sad fate. Dr. Creyk, Inveravon, was speedily in attendance, but the vital spark had fled.--Elgin Courant. LAW INTELLIGENCE—This Day. COURT OF PROBATE AND DIVORCE. (Before Sir J. P. Wilde.) ARGENT V. ARGENT-JUDGMENT. This was a case of probate, in which the plaintiff prayed for administration as the administrator of the estate of her deceased husband, who was a soldier in her Majesty's army, and for some time in the Cape Mounted Rifles, and who was resident at the Cape of Good Hope for many years, and died there. It appeared that in 1850 the deceased married a woman of the name of Amelia Adams, and that marriage was dissolved in 1852 by the courts at the Cape in consequence of the adultery of the wife some time after; and while still resident at the Cape the deceased contracted a second marriage with Selina rudmore, wi'o is the plaintiff in the present case, and who claims administra tion. The plaintiff's claim was opposed by the defendant as next of kin of the deceased, on the ground that the second marriage was illegal according to the laws of England. the courts at the Cape having bad no authority to dissolve the first marriage, the deceased being a domiciled English man. • The learned Judge, in giving judgment, sai(c, he did not think it necessary to go into the question of domicile, so ably discussed by the Scotch lawyers, who seemed to hold that the law of the country whore the parties were married was the law of the domicile, no matter to what country they might belong. In this case the deceased had been for many years resident at the Cape. The first marriage had been regularly contracted and dissolved there by the competent tribunals. The second marriage had also been contracted there, and he was not inclined to hold that marriage to be invalid. He should therefore decree ad ministration to the plaintiff as administrator to the testator Decree of administration accordingly. SHERIFFS' COURT. CHLOROFORMING A PATIENT AND PULLING OUT THE 'WRONG TOOTH.-WAINWRIGHT V. GALPIN. This was an action to recover a sum of money for per forming a surgical operation upon the defendant, for whom Mr. Beard appeared. _ _ _ His Honour—Do you owe this money, defendant? Defendant—lndeed, Ido not. He administered chloro form to me and pulled out the wrong tooth. (Laughter.) Plaintiff—l deny it. He asked me to extract a tooth which gave him pain, and I did so. Mr. Beard—What are you ? Plaintiff—A surgeon dentist. I did not attend upon de fendant as a friend, though we were both living in the same house at the time the operation was performed. I did not pull out the wrong tooth. lam quite sure. Mr. Beard—Now, defendant, just tell his Honour what occurred. Defendant—l had a tooth which pained me very much, and plaintiff agreed to extract it. He gave me chloroform, and then pulled out the wrong tooth. His Honour—Did he pull out a sound tooth ? Defendant—lndeed, he did. His Honour—And left the unsound tooth in your head ? Defendant—Yes, and it is there now. Mr. Beard—The loss of the sound tooth was serious to he defendant. Y .. His Honour—You cannot recover in this case, plaintiff, as it is very clear you have made a blunder. You must be non-suited. Plaintiff non-suited, and costs granted to defendant. PHOSPHATE OF LIME.—The Abeille Medicale publishes a paper by M. Collas, a chemist of Paris, in which ho shows that, while the attention of scientific men has been chiefly turned to the subject of finding agents capable of preventing or suspending the putrefac tion of animal substances, it may not be uninteresting to take up the contrary question, and endeavour to find out those agents that favour putrefaction. Gelatinous phos phate of lime, he informs us, is of this class, as the follow ing experiments show :—Having made a solution of isin glass in distilled water, and strained it through a cloth, he poured it into two porcelain basins, one of which con tained a small quantity of the gelatinous phosphate, while the other was empty. Both vessels, on cooling, were found to contain a jelly, the former an opaque and the other quite a transparent one. They were both put into a room, the temperature of which ranged between 10 and 15 dog. centigrade. At the end of 36 hours, the isinglass containing phosphate of lime was in a state of putrefac tion, emitting an intolerable stench, while the other con- tinned for six whole days in a sound state. M. Collas has made similar experiments with beef and other kinds of butcher's meat, and obtained similar results. Examin ing the question theoretically, our author is of opinion that phosphate of lime, so extensively used for manure in agri culture, acts as a powerful stimulant of vegetation ; that, if the flesh of fish is much more corruptible than that of mammalia, it is because the former contains much phosphate of lime ; but that, on the other hand, if a fish diet is recom mended to patients on account of itsbeing easy of digestion, it is on account of the same ingredient, and that therefore a small quantity of phosphate of lime added to butcher's meat would render it much more tender and easy of diges tion.—Galignani. LIFE IN THE BUSH.—The following is an ex- tract from a letter dated 300 miles south-west of Brisbane, Queensland, in which the writer gives a sketch of his experience, and a picture of squatter life in the Aus tralian bush :-=-" As you have already learned, growing cabbages or anything else in the bush is a delusion and a snare ; but in this country, more than at home, one must buy one's wit; the only question is, whether what is called `colonial experience' is not dear at any price. It consists in being a good rider, having the digestion of an ostrich, an utter disregard for comfort and cleanliness, a brutal manner, and being a thoroughly accomplished blas phemer, cum multis aliis, and similar accomplishments. The yarns told about this country are lies, and the Go vernment emigration agent ought to be hanged. He is sent to England to get a poor lot of people out by the govern ing power here, the squatters, i.e., men who keep stations,' and rear flocks and herds, and their object is to get men at low wages. I have lately walked some 400 miles through the country, and met no end of men seeking employment, which they could not get in certain seasons. At lamb ing' and shearing' men are in great request ; but these are but a small portion of the year. It is the same with the land, so much vaunted. A small proportion is good, and they talk of it to people at home as if this were the rule, and not the exception. They write accounts of what a farmer can do, and it looks well on paper ; but oven if he gets good land, if he is not near a town (and all cannot be in fact very near), he cannot get a market bpi his crops. He must get them to market by a dray and ten bullocks, with some five or six to spare, two or three men, and a horse or two, and men he will get along 84 the rate of ten or twelve miles a day. Such are a farmer's prospects. And to take a station one must have £5,000 or £6,000 at least, and credit for more. This is the only game which will ever do here. Putting the above agricultural diffi culties on one side, there is another you can never depend on—the weather. As a rule you aro either flooded out or dried up. Last year we were nearly drowned at this time ; this we have not had a shower for weeks and weeks. I forget when I last wrote to you. I have had severe trials since I did so. I was breaking stones on a railway. I had to give up that. I could not make my salt at it. I then turned 'bum' for a bit, but could not get my money from the sheriff's officer. I then went down to Brisbane, and tried to get a berth again. Then I determined to go up country and seek my fortune there ; so on I went to a place called Too woomba, some ninety miles from Brisbane, and here I got work on the Government roads, at £1 per week and rations. When the job was ended, and the gang was broken up into three or four smaller ones, I got the sack ; but to show how men are treated here I was discharged, but got no money, only two bits of paper, showing what was due to me ; no cash until the cashier came along, and it might be two or three months ere ho came. I was told to do as others did, and found one dodge was to get the butcher who supplied the meat to cash my paper, which ho did, modestly deducting one-eighth, or 75 per cent. per annum for the accommodation. This is your Government employment. I must either have done this or walked 90 miles back again to get my money in person." Several accidents from lightning occurred three days back during a storm which passed over Ant werp and the neighbourhood. In the town a young lad, aged 12, was killed, and a man was also struck, and had his right side paralysed. The electrid fluid entered the Contich railway station by the electric wires, and set fire to some papers, but no great damage was done ; but at Bazel the church was struck and almost entirely burnt down. CHINESE SHOPS.—The Chinese shopkeepers are fat, comfortable -looking fellows, with pleasant good-humoured. faces. They showed me their curiosities very willingly, and none the less courteously excl4anged a smiling "chin-chin" With me, if I left the shop without purchasing anything. Tea-shops are numberless. They are piled up with chests such as we see in England, and with open basket Bof coarse mid inferior tea for the poor. The cheapest kind is MI& itt thin round cakes or large Wafers, strung Upon slips of batubon. It partially dissolves in hot water, and is flavoured with salt by those led dtitik it. Of this form of brick tea I have never seen any mention in the books published by travellers. There are poultereri' shops with fowls roasted and raw, and vegetable sellers' stalls, and fish in baskets, dead and not over fresh, or alive in large tubs of Water. They Were all of the carp family, including rdhoos, mirgals, and kutlas, so familiarly known in India, also several species of the *siluroids, called vul garly " catfish." The fish brought from the sea aro salted and sun-dried, and, with strong aid from immense festoons of of sharks' fins, set up a stench that it is not easy to walk through.—Dickens' " All the fear Round." Late on Sunday night, or early on Monday morning, the mansion house of Bower-house, in the vici nity of Dunbar, was broken into, and silver plate to the value of at least £l3O carried off. There is a good deal of mystery attached to the robbery, inasmuch as there does not appear as yet to be any clue as to how the entrance was effected. The thieves, however, had made their exit by the front door, as it was found upon in the morning, The robbery is the more remarkable as the family of Mr Dalmahoy, the proprietor, were living in the house at Uio time.—Scotsman.

FORGING A MONEY ORDER. - Joseph Rodman was charged with forging a post-office order for Ll. From the evidence produced by Mr. Peacock, the Post office solicitor, it appeared that on the 20th of July a letter was delivered at 17, Prince's-court, Gibraltar-walk, Beth nal-green, addressed apparently to a man named Edwards. The landlady of the house, a Mrs. Reynolds, thought it was for her lodger, James Headford, and consequently put it under the door of his bedroom, after calling his attention to it. Headford got out of bed, put the letter on his drawers, and, being unable to read or write, left it unopened and got into bed again. Shortly after the prisoner called and asked to see a man named Peale, who had been living there, but he was informed that Peaks had gone away. Headford then asked the prisoner if he could read writing, and find ing that he could, requested him to open the letter and see if it was for him. The prisoner did so, and asked him if he baa got a sister named " Sarah Edwards." He said "No." ,t mei..." said the prisoner, " this letter is not for you, and it had better' be sealed up and returned to the Post-office." He undertook to do this himself, as he was going near a post office, and Ilea.i f ord saw no more of him. The prisoner then went to the office at which the order was made pay able, and presented it. He was told that it was not pro perly signed, and that he had come before office hours, upon which he took away the order and alter ed the signa ture, saying, "it was the Welch way of writing the name," and eventually obtained the sovereign. It afterwards transpired that the order WAS really intended for a man P r ince's-court, Victoria-road, named Edwards, living at 17 , in the same neighbourhood, but that the letter had been misdelivered owing to the badness of the writing, or the stupidity of the postman. The prisoner, on being appre hended in Spitalfields, where he worked, said, " All eight; I will see how the case goes before I make any statement." He afterwards said, "Poverty drives a man to do many things." Committed for trial. THAMES. A DANGEROUS DRUNKARD —Lichfield Randall, aged 40, a wretched and very dirty-looking man, was brought before Mr. Yardley charged with being drunk and incapable of taking care of himself. Yesterday, in mid-day, great alarm and consternation was excited in the Whiteohapel Haymarket, by the dis covery of a load of straw being on fire. The whole of it was destroyed, and the flames had very nearly communi cated to other waggon-loads of hay and straw. The pri soner was lying on the ground in a beastly state of intoxi cation. He had been smoking his pipe alongside the straw and it is supposed that some of the sparks from his pipe fell upon the straw and set it on fire. The prisoner would have been burnt if he had not been removed by the police. Childs, a police-constable, No. 193 11, stated that the pri soner was a Hertfordshire carter, and came to London with a load of straw yesterday morning. The prisoner was not in a fit state to be brought before the magistrate yesterday afternoon. Mr. Partridge—ls there any one here to charge him with setting fire to the load of straw ? Inspector Dendy, of the H division, said there was not. The whole of the property was in danger, and three en gines were in requisition to subdue the flames. Mr. Partridge said that smoking of pipes and cigars ought to be strictly prohibited among the hay and straw in the Whitechapel hay market. There was no one to charge the prisoner with setting fire to the straw. If there had been the prisoner would have been in a serious difficulty. He discharged the prisoner, and recommended him to go back to Hertfordshire as quickly as possible. WESTMINSTER. VIOLENT ASSAULT.—Roger Ryan, labourer, was charged before Mr. Arnold with wilfully breaking two squares of glass at the shop of Mr. R. Hyam, pawnbroker, Fulham road. _ Arthur Warren, an assistant, stated that he was in the shop yesterday afternoon when the prisoner came in and took off his boots, which he wanted to pledge. Witness refused to take them, seeing that he was very drunk. The prisoner left. In a few minutes witness was alarmed by the smashing of a pane of glass. A brick came through the window close by him. Soon after another brick was through another pane of glass. The value of the panes was 30s. Witness went out and seized hold of the prisoner. Witness asked him why he broke the window. Ho made no reply. A policeman came up, and took him to the station• house. ' The prisoner, in answer to the charge, said that 'he was so drunk that he did not know what he was doing. Mr. Arnold remarked that his conduct was most violent, and that drunkenness was no excuse. The prisoner was fined 20s. for the damage done, or in default one month's imprisonment.

A cut _ ENT TO A STEAM FIRE ENGINE—Last night, about ten o'cia.:9ll7 Messrs. Shand and Mason's steam .fire engine was proce,:ding from Ohandos-street to the scene of a fi re i n Th an „ s _ sti :et, and when in Picket-street, Strand, nearly opposite St. Clei2ent's Church, was ob structed by a cab, in avoiding which tit: wheel skidded on lent of the kerb, and the engine, with a full corno,3: fire men, was upset. One of the men was slightly injured. The engine was much damaged. A GRAVEDIGGERS' STRIKE.—The Courrier de Saone et Loire says :—" Sepulchral news reaches us from Autun ; the gravediggers have struck! The people of Anton must not, therefore, die; unless they wish their bodies to remain unburied. We see no other way of oppos ing the pretensions of men who live by other people's deaths. Such a result as this it was scarcely supposed would be produced by the law on coalitions." THE ATTEMPTED MURDER AT PLYMOUTH.—The marine store-dealer Bunter, who stabbed Detective inipeavt Annie with a sword on Saturday, committed izzicide in tilt" police cell yesterday. He broke his break fast basin, nod with tile*Pieces cut the arteries of his arms and throat so severe'" that he afterwards die d of the wounds. Inspector Annie is st;:: alive. apt The Atoniteur de l'Algerie states the transport Rhone has just left Algiers for the Antilles am: Me xic° with two companies of Zonaves and some Turcos em barked in that town. That vessel had previously taken on board at Toulon a number of militar y , naval, and civilian passengers, among whom were 100 men of the Foreign Legion, and the officers and crew o f the Brandon. deuce G R EAT BRITAIN AND BRAZIL —A correspon has taken place between the British, Portuguese, and Bra zilian Governments, the result of which is that Brazil accepts the proposals of her Majesty's; Government of February last, and diplomatic relations will be very shortly re-established. This happy reconciliation is in a great degree owing to the mediation of the Portuguese Govern ment and the persevering friendly efforts of Count Lay radio, the Minister of his Majesty the King of Portugal at the Court of St. James's.

Elthana, having been knocked about, is now restored to life again. The field will likely comprise the following PROBABLE STARTERS AND JOCKEYS. • Horse. Age st lb Rider. General Peel Ely Cambuscan Union Jack Privateer... Breeze Hollyfox Eltham Breadalbane Todlebon Friday - Wild Charley - Union Jack holds all the four-yr-olds safe, and Eltham, Wild Charley, and Breadalbane are the best of the three yr-olds. Eltham can stay the distance, as was lately seen at Ascot. Wild Charley has now quite recovered from his illness, and no horse could be in finer condition: His easy defeat of Ackworth at Northampton is enough to stamp him one of the best horses in training. Cambuscan holds both General Peel and Ely safe. Breezeand. Eltham ought to finish close together. The judge, I expect, will place — UNION JACK 1 WILD CHARLEY CAMBUSCAN • = 3 Holyfox has the best outside chance. ____ A FRESH MAN. RACING FIXT rRES FOR 1865.
