" Curiosities of Plant Life," " A Plea for Music in Common Life," and "From the Ocean to the Sea" are among the most attractive of the general papers. THE SUNDAY.-High principled, well written, and varied in its character, this serial is not adapted for so wide a circulation as Good Words, but it is admirably adapted for those who think with Dr. Guthrie. There are many articles not directly re ligious, but all are instructive and profitable in some way or another. Its type, numerous illustra tions, and vigorous style, make it very suitable for working folks in their brief hours of Sunday leisure. THE BOYS' OWN MAGAZINE.-THE BOYS' MONTHLY MAGAZINE.—These two little serials keep on their course with unabated spirit, and he must be a very dull or discontented youth who does not find something to attract him in their contents. SCIENCE Gossir deals with the notable features of eery-day life in a scientific aspect, and is less learned and ambitious in its character. It is intended chiefly as a medium of interchange for students and lovers of nature, a purpose it is well calculated to fulfil. THE ENGLISH MECHANIC is too well known to need much criticism. It is an excellent publication for the intelligent and educated working-man, who will find in it plenty to instruct, interest, and en lighten him. THE TRUE HISTORY OF A LITTLE RAGGAMUFFIN has reached the fifth Part, of which the pictures tell the story vividly enough. Our philanthropists had better study this chapter of London life, which will show them that there is something for idle hands and heads to do in this great metropolis of ours. THE INTELLECTUAL OBSERVER contains, as usual, a vast amount of curious and valuab/e information. . = etralliar The Prince and Princess of Wales. The Prince and Princess of Wales, accompanied by the Queen of the Belgians, rode out on horse back yesterday forenoon, attended by the Countess of Macclesfield and Major Grey. The Princess of Wales drove out in the afternoon, accompanied by the Queen of the Belgians. TENNYSON AND HIS HOME.—An american gentle man, Mr. Harry Harewood. Leech, has supplied the New York Rome Journal with the following account of a visit he recently made to Tennyson :—" Mr. Tennyson's residence at Farringford House,' Isle of Wight, is at once spacious, unpretending, and elegant. It has a wide front, all clustered over with the trailing ivy-leaves; to the right of which runs a picturesque porch, completely fes tooned with woodbines, and at the left side appears a plea sant conservatory filled with choice plants. I was charmed with the broad paths, as I approached the house, which were sheltered irregularly, on each side, with ancient oaks, which threw their spreading branches completely over them. Then the wide level lawns extended ou each side to shaded allees, in which I loved to think the poet wandered, weaving the sweet fancies that should charm the world. . . A butler, in plain clothes, ushered me into a cabinet until he could inform the poet of myarrival. Per haps no better index to the tastes of Mr. Tennyson could be found than this collection. (gathered mostly by himself) of minerals and fossils, curious crustacea, shells and crystals, all labelled and arranged carefully. In a few moments I was shown into the drawing-room, where I saw Mrs. Ten nyson and the poet's maiden sister. The ladies entertained me by showing me some exquisite photographic albums, and a packet of photographs of Mr. Carlyle. As I was ex amining them Mr. Tennyson came in from his study. How can I describe him to you. He,is, perhaps, 5 feet 9 inches in height, but he stoops much as he walks, and thus looks shorter. He does not seem to be above 50 years of age,yet his gait is feeble, and the wearing of glasses adds to the impression of his being older. His dress is extremely old fashioned— indeed, he looked more like an old picture stepping out of a frame than a gentleman of the nineteenth century. His coat, short in the waist, was of a sort of linsoy-woolsey material, of a grey mixed colour, and fitted him very tight ; vest and trowsers of the same material. - Around his ample shirt-collar a black cravat was loosely tied. But nothing could de tract from the power of his massive forehead, high and broad, and nothing could be more pricturesque than the long black hair, fine as silk (but plentifully mixed with grey), which fell over his fine head, down even to his shoulders. His eyes are dark grey, I think, and have the peculiar appearance about the lids common to all students, and especially night readers, which is very clearly per ceived and defined in photographs of the poet. His mouth is constantly smiling, but his eyes seem to be absent while he is speaking, searching everywhere for something that is not present—that strange, speculative look that is not easy to convey by description, and must be comprehended rather than clearly defined. His voice is rich and sonorous, but he chooses his words slowly, and, I should think by this betrays that, in his composition, he is equally careful and slow. A sort of dreamy, ruminating voice, that has spoken, yet is far beyond the voice in thought. In speaking of Carlyle, the poet, on looking upon the picture of the author of Barter Resartus' he said—' He has a sad face. Do you not think so?' Yes-!' I replied, but I can conceive that he has many of the same qualities he loved in Frederick the Great.' Doubtless,' was the reply, accompanied by one of those strange smiles. Our conversation turned upon the beauties of the Isle of Wight, England generally, my own stay in it, and gradually upon America. He had many questions to ask me of Boston friends—the sudden death of Mr. Ticknor (of Ticknor and Fields), and, finally, asked me if I knew Mr. Henry Tuckerman. I said I had not that pleasure, and I understood him to praise that gentle man. At last I expressed the hope that some day, not far distant, we should have the honour of a visit from him, so that the thousand lovers of his song in America could wel come him. He inters upted me by a firm—' No ! I think not." Why ? may I ask.' Ah ! you are too violent over there for me' (referring to our late evil war). ' But now that we are at peace,' I advanced, and slavery is at an end'—He interrupted quickly. Ah ! but your press,' he raid, it is positively outrageous and violent.' I tried to prove that some he named—ultra-political papers—were exceptions, and that our moderate, hig'i-toned journals, would compare favourably with those of England; but I soon gathered from the laureate that he, in common with the governing class in England, had but little sympathy with the peaceful settlement of our late rebellion, and I was much pained by the reflection that, though our deeds were 6 writ in iron,' we should not have this 'shadowy honour' upon their tombs. However, on all sasthetical subjects we clasped hands, and the moments fled' all too quickly in converse with that pure soul. So, with tender memories, I left Farringford House, carrying away with me some sweet souvenirs of pictures, flowers, and auto graphs." QUESTIONABLE TRIBUTE TO A LADY'S MEMORY.— A comical contributor to Harper's Magazine, among other whimsical recollections of typographical mistakes, observes that upon the occasion of a decease occurring in Slumgullion an obituary suitably prepared was sent to the for publication by a d;szonsolate widower. It was con structed according to the usual formula which distinguishes that class of composition, and suitably garnished with di luted sentiment and Scriptural quotation. I handed it over to the ininter without comment or correction. On looking over the proof, however, I perceived thrt the lady was spoken of as having been "remarkable for her chastity." As this was evidently intended to be " charity," and not a malicious slur on the fair fame of the rest of the village, I underlined the obnoxious word, made an in terrogation point in the margin, and sent the proof to the bereaved husband, with the request that he should return it directly to the printer after making his correc tions. Other engagements kept me away from the office until after the Slumgullion Independent had gone to press. The next morning a zealous friend called upon me an early hour, and imparted the pleasing information that the bereaved husband was, iu the local dialect, "hunt ing me." "You see," added my sympathising friend, " the old fool An% take a joke, and he swears he'll have your life." "But I haven't joked him !" I began in amazement. " You don't mean to say that you mean that for good ?" said my friend, with some concern de picted on his face. " Mean what ? For goodness sake what do you mean ?" " Why, that joke on old Follies bee's wife. You see," he continued confidentially, "the innocent old ass thought everything of old Suke Follius bee, and that air dig of yours in the paper rather got him. It was pretty rough on Suke, too, but it was very good. Ile ! he!" I snatched the paper from his hand and ran my eye rapidly over the obituary. It had never been cor rected. But as it went on to recount the virtues of the deceased, it seeme d t h at the ingenious printer had seen fit to interpolate my query as an editorial doubt of one of the qualities of the esteemed Mrs. Follinsbee, and she was spoken of as having been "remarkable for her chastity (?)"

The Battle of Custozza. (REUTER'S EXPRESS.) VIENNA, June 30. The Archduke Albrecht has addressed to the Em peror a report of the battle of Custozza, of which the following are the principal passages : " The cavalry brigade of Col. Pultz had orders to retire slowly by Villafranca to Verona, and to avoid any serious engagement, but at the same time to remain continually in contact with the enemy. " It is known that our adversary had not observed the delay of three days, fixed by himself, for the commencement of hostilities, for on June 21 he bad already commenced erecting a bridge at Molina di Volta, near Pozzolo, without being impeded from our side. " On the 22d June the enemy, not without some hesitation passed the Mincio near Goito, Pozzolo, Valeggio, and Monzambano. On the morning of the 23rd day of June the detachments of the Pulz brigade evacuated Villafranca after having collected together all other detachments stationed to the south. The enemy occupied Villafranca only at 2 o'clock in the afternoon by . Bersaglieri, and threw strong columns of cavalry, with artillery, in the direction of Dossobuons, where towards 4 o'clock some cannon shots were exchanged with our cavalry brigade, which had encamped during the night of the 23rd and 24th of June near Fort Gislea. Staff Colonel Baron von Ruber, sent out to re connoitre on the morning of the 23rd, announced to me at 2 o'clock from Somma Compagna that that point as well as the neighbouring mantilons to the south were not occupied by the enemy, but that long lines of dust to the south of Villafranca indicated the enemy's march towards the east. I, therefore, took the resolution to occupy that same day the heights between Somma, Campagna and Sandra. The brigade under Colonel Prince Von Saxe Weimar, belonging to the reserve division of cavalry, advanced towards Sandra, with orders to send de tachments as far as Castelnuovo. The sth Corps marched on Sona and pushed forward outposts to wards Zerbare. In the same manner the 9th Corps took up a position on the 23d at Santa Lucca, and the 7th Corps at Massimo. These two corps had to guard these positions during the night, not withstanding that the 7th Corps in particular had during the day effected, in an overpowering heat, the fatiguing march from San Bonifacio to San Massimo. At three, on the morning of the 24th, the 9th Corps advanced in a straight line upon Somma Compagna, while the 7th Corps, intended to serve as its reserve, took the direction of Sona. The sth Army Corps received orders to occupy early San Giorgio in Salice, maintaining, at the same time, its position at Sona until the arrival of the 7th Corps, while the division of infantry would occupy Castelnuovo. Eight squadrons were taken from the cavalry regiments belonging to the diffe rent army corps to reinforce, under the orders of Colonel Beganovics, the Pulz brigade, which was under instructions to advance on the 24th on the left wing of the 9th Corps towards Custozza, and thus to cover the left flank of the army. The enemy, who had occupied during the night of the 23d Villafranca, Custozza, Monte Mamaor, and Montevento, and pushed forward his left wing as far as Castlenuovo, must have been apprised of our army having marched from Verona, for at the break of day his outposts had been advanced on the line from San Roccodi di Palezzuolo to Fenile Corte and Oliosi. This last point especially was strongly occupied. The successive appearance of large columns on Mount Vento, Mount Mamaor, Mount Godio, etc., as well as the array of masses of cavalry and infantry near Villafranca, and to the south of Somma Compagna, proved to me that the enemy, finding himself in front of the whole Aus trian army of operation, had recalled all his columns previously sent out towards the east. At about seven in the morning a heavy artillery fire began, while the reserve division upon the right wing near Alzarea, the sth corps to the east of San Giorgio in San Salice, and the 9th Corps at Somma Campagna and Zerbare came into action. Our artillery fire was maintained with coolness and ad mirable precision, and produced a considerable effect, although the enemy successively brought into line a superior number of pieces. " I ordered the 9th Corps to maintain itself, under all circumstances, at Somma Campagna and upon the heights of Casa del Sola, and to push forward vigorously, should it be possible, towards Custozza by way of Staffalo. The gap between the 9th and the sth Corps was filled by the brigade of General Scudier of the 7th corps. The sth Corps and the reserve division had orders to advance, to former by Rocco di Palazzolo, the latter towards Oliosi. These troops acquitted themselves of their task in a brilliant manner. The Piret brigade of the sth Corps and the reserve infantry division carried the village of Oliosi, set on fire by our artillery, not withstanding the desperate resistance of the enemy, and the murderous fire of several batteries esta blished upon Monte Vento. " The two other brigades of the sth Army Corps under General Maring and Colonel Baucr carried the farms of Corte and of San Rocco di Palazzolo, and the the Scudier brigade of the 7th Corps ad vanced in a continuous and obstine struggle from Zerbare towards Monte Godio. Lastly, the Taply brigade, and subsequent the Welsersheim brigade of that army corps were able to enter the line to participate with overwhelming ardour in the sanguinary combats for the possession of Monte Godio. " Between one and three in the afternoon one brigade of the sth Corps carried Monte Vento, and the two others, after a most desperate struggle, gained possession of Santa Lucia and Monte Marnar. During this time the reserve division reached Salionze and pushed forwards towards Vallegio. Notwithstanding all the efforts of the 9th and 7th Army Corps they were unable to succeed in carry ing Custozza up to three in the afternoon. " The troops being exhausted, partly by the burning heat and the fatigue of the struggle, I gave them a short rest, and:subsequently ordered the 7th Army Corps, reinforced by a brigade of the sth Corps, to make a last attempt to carry Custozza, defended by the enemy with stubborness and great bravery. Before, however, my order had arrived, the 7th corps efficaciously supported by the well maintained fire of the pieces of the 9th Army Corps placed at Casa del Sole, had gained possession of Monte Arabita, and Belvedere. Tnere still re mained then the difficult task of taking Custozza and Monte Torre, and of repulsing the continual and very violent attacks of the enemy against the 9th Corps at Somnia Campagna and Casa del Sole. " The enemy, led by the Princes Humbert and Amadeus, attempted with picked troops to advance to g Naffalo and hold Custozza, but the 9th Corps energetically repulsed every attack, and ultimately, to wards 7 p.m., the 7th Army Corps, supported by the brigade of the sth Corps, succeeded in carrying Custozza. The Pultz reserve cavalry, with the eight squadrons of Colonel Beyanovics, had main tained with various fortune a series of combats from 4 o'clock in the morning until the fall of night. These valiant troops, who, under their excellent chief, performed prodigies of valour and devotion, sustained considerable losses, owing mainly to the impetuosity of their attacks. " At nightfall the two cavalry brigades were with drawn behind Dossobuono. As late as 9 o'clock artillery fire was heard in the direction of the 9th Corps and the Pultz brigade. The enemy had by this time abandoned further resistance, and clouds of dust towards Goito and Valeggio pointed out his his line of retreat upon the Mincio. It would be impossible to deny to the enemy the testimony of having fought with obstinacy and bravery ; his first attacks in especial were impetuous, and his of ficers set their men good examples. " The enemy, brought into line of battle under the eyes of the King and the orders of Princes Humbert and Amadeus—the latter of whom was wounded—the complete army corps of Durando and Della It occo ; also, as repo rted by prisoners, a strong force of the Cucharia army corps and several cavalry regiments, in all nearly 11 divisions of infantry, being a force of about 100,000 men, and almost all his reserve artillery, but it was im possible for him to resist the tried and persevering bravery of the Imperial troops. " Our losses in killed and wounded are not small, owing to the impetuous dash of our troops. lam unable to state the figures until I receive detailed reports. According to an approximate estimate we have made about 3,000 prisoners, many of whom are officers. We have also captured some guns, but the number is not yet certain. " It is my opinion that the splendid victory of Custozza will have all the more effect as symptoms of demoralisation were visible in the Italian army towards evening after the capture of Custozza, many of the prisoners not having tasted food for 48 hours. "In retreating beyond the Mincio the enemy burnt the fine bridge of Valleggio, where he left 500 wounded. He evacuated Villafranca the same night, and also abandoned a great number of wounded there." ELECTION CO3llll/TTEES..—This Day. lIELSTONE. This election committee assembled to-day to in quire into the merits of the petition presented against the sitting member, who, it will be recollected, was declared elected by a majority of 1,. the contest it was alleged being decided by the casting vote of the returning officer. The committee decided that the vote was not in fact given for the sitting member. Another voter for the sitting mem ber having been found disqualified, the result was that Mr. Brett was placed in a majority, and the committee accordingly come to the conclusion that the sitting member, Mr. Campbell, had been anduly elected, and that therefore the seat in the House of Commons belonged to Mr. Brett, to whom they awarded it. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.---This Day. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. ROBBERY AND ASSAULT.—Francis Schnell, a shirt cutter ately in the employ of Mr. James Drew, hosier, of No. 1, Burlington Arcade, was charged before Mr. Knox with stealing some shirts, collars, &c., the property of Mr Drew. Mr. Drew said the prisoner was:formerly in his employ, but in consequence of receiving some complaints as to shirts cut by the prisoner being misfits, he spoke to him, when he became very insolent, upon which he paid and discharged him. Subsequently facts came to his know ledge which induced him to believe that the prisoner had robbed him, and in consequence yesterday evening he went with Dawson, 301 A, to the prisoner's lodging in Charles-street, Knightsbridge, and searched the place and there founi four knight-shirts, seven collars, and a silk umbrella, all of which he could identify as his pro perty, and he believed a number of other articles were also his property. The prisoner said all the property belonged to him. Henry Dawson, 301 A, proved finding at the prisoner's lodging 12 shirts and 13 collars in the prisoner's drawers, one of which were identified by the prosecutor as his property, as also were an umbrella and table-cloth. While he was searching the place, a woman the prisoner lived with began crying. The prisoner was remanded. HONEY MARKET ose singular specimens, and the description of a mud bath is so dreadful that we are tempted to exclaim at the outset that the cure is worse than the disease, whatever that may be. " Twenty per Cent." is a banking tale of the present time, " which is most appropriate in its appearance just now. Many might profit by the periisal of the ad ventures and misadventures of the hero of this sketch, and take his advice to heart in their rash ventures and foolish speculations. "A Lay of the National Portrait Exhibi t ion" is well written and interesting, and the sketches of " Modern Eccentrics" continue to put before us some noticeable characters with their peculiar. ways. COLBURN'S UNITED SERVICE.—The United Ser vice partakes more of the " Line " than of the saline element this month. " How to Reform the Recruiting System of the British Army," being its first article, and certainly the system needs a thorough reform, for the abuses which have crept into the establishment are worthy of the good old times The writer is a medical gentleman, and his experience may be taken as a voucher for the knowledge he displays. There are in Great Britain seven recruiting districts—four in England, two in Ireland, and one in Scotland. These seven aro divided into sub-districts, or sub-divisions, and the officials comprise an inspecting field-officer, an adjutant, a paymaster, a surgeon, and non-commissioned officers and men, the latter being spread over the districts according to circumstances. Besides all which, there are other sub:divisions or superintending officers, with a host of others to see that these do their duty ; the orderly doing little, and the disorderly doing less. And this is the way that recruits are manufactured into the service, and at a cost not to be reckoned. No wonder that the army esti mates keep increasing, and the people ask the reason why? To make the matter worse, the generality of the recruits turn out to be worse than useless—not worth the "bad shilling" which hooked them—and still the regular expense goes on for the good of the service. But even now the authorities seem to be more alive to the sub ject, for the expense is so unaccountable that two of the districts are broken up and the recruiting entrusted to the local pensioners. Even this will be found inefficient, for the pensioners will be getting old and indifferent. Now, our medical friend proposes to do away with the militia as useless, for in case of any emergency not one-half of them would be fit for duty, or, if fit, would be unwilling to serve; he would therefore disband the men, reserving the staff, and employing them in recruiting for the line. This would be saving a vast expense, and would be having an active force always ready to meet any necessity. Besides, he would like to localise the names of regiments, as of old, in order to promote a patriotic rivalry in the several corps, so as to make them " Brethren in arms, but rivals in renown." We think the plan is well worthy of a fair trial. " The Theory of Carrying Weights and the Infantry Knapsack" is another subject well worthy of the consideration of the War Office and the Horse Guards, for it has become a pro verb that "the knapsack kills more men than the bullet and bayonet taken together ;" and we verily believe it, for the pressure of the knapsack straps on the blood-vessels, and still more on the nerves, obstructs breathing, and pro. duces paralysis and even apoplexy. It is only in active service that the absurdity of our red-tape fooleries is •brought to the test. The Peninsular war produced Brown Bess, and the Crimean war abolished the old, stiff stock, which choked many a good soldier. " Naval Pensions," and "A. Visit to Admiral Fitzroy's Weather Office," are well deserving of attention—the weather indica tions of changes more especially so from their novelty. Most people pretend to be weather-wise, but it requires more acquaintance with the elements than some are gifted with to foretell what day will rain and what will not. The public are under very deep obli gations to Admiral Fitzroy for having brought the science tosu manychsa serviceable purpose, by being the means of saving valuable lives along our stormy coasts. There are about 200,000 ships,with about 1,000,000 of men, now upon the ocean, and more than 1,000 wrecks annually occur upon our own shores. " Lifeboat Oars" is an article made up from one that has appeared in the journal of the National Lifeboat Institution, and commends itself to the public attention. The chief requisites are lightness, stiff ness, and strength, and these are principally found in the Nor way and Baltic white spars. But there is another -the Oregon or Vancouver Island pine—a wood peculiar for its being free from knots, and growing to a very great height. It is chiefly imported for the masts of yachts, and very dear, on account of the distance. " The flagstaff in Kew-gardens is the finest and longest spar in Europe, be ing 159 feet high, and only 19 inches in diameter at its base. The tree from which it was made was 220 feet high.' Th e Report of the Jamaica Commissioners is justly de nounced as a species of "tinkering" that may well make M r. E " yre and hi s ass i s t ants of the army and navy register y ew never to save another colony" so long as Exeter Kali continues unhappily in the ascendant. " His case," says the writer of the article before us,." reminds us of the old story of one of Vernon's seamen, who, going on shore without leave at Portobello, found himself suddenly in front of a small fort. Being equal to the emergency, he made a dash at the Dons, who, supposing he had assist ance at hand, at once surrendered. Some boats crews Were sentfrom the fleet, the fort secured, and Jack brought on board. Here he was threatened with the cat for his absence, when he exclaimed to the Admirrl, "Let me off this once, your honour, and I'll never take another fort as long as I live !" MACMILLAN.—The story of " Cradock Nowell" is continued with vigour, and is the first thing to meet the reader when he takes up " Macmillan." Events crowd quickly one upon another, and the death of one of the foremost characters, and, as it no w appears, the real murderer of Clayton, occurs u nexpectedly. What effect this will have upon the for tunes of the unlucky hero, who by-the-bye is reported to to be lost at sea, remains to be seen. Mrs. Norton's story of "Old Sir Douglas," having from some unexplained and Mysterious reason disappeared from the pages of this maga zine, its place is filled by the first chapters of a new romance by henry Kingsley, author of " Ravenshoe," even more wild and Weird than usual, although dealing with nothing more alarming than an English country squire, his two ab nat and his poachers. The Rev. H. Whitehead, who sstormesetpmp timeu ago gave us th e d e t a il e d hi story of the Broad and its connection with the epidemic of some years a 6 n. o, returns again to the c h arge, an d traces " The influence of impure water on the s p rea d o f c h o l era " i n a startling manner. The th rea t ene d v i s i tat i on of the dreaded disease has as y e t spare d us, b ut that is no reason why we should disregard plain facts so closely associated with the p u bl ic health.

The Earl of Derby had an audience of the Queen. AND COMMERCIAL tNsE LLIGENOE, TWELVE O'CLOCK. The Money Market is active to-day, accomodation being in request, to liquidate securities arriving at maturity to-morrow, the 4th. There are also other exceptional engagements to be provided for at the end of the quarter, and for the moment money is wanted. After to-day it is believed that the inquiry will greatly abate, and that the rates will then show a receding tendency. First class bills, however, are now negotiable as low as 81 per cent. There were no gold operations of importance at the Bank of England yesterday. The shareholder~ and depositors in the Ramsgate branch of the English Joint Stock Bank have adopted resolutions, appointing a committee of their n body to invite the co-operation of other branehes in 'an united effort to effect a winding up of the company, and deciding that the committee should communicate with the directors, and urge upon them the necessity of immediately calling a general meeting of depositors and shareholders in London. It is stated that the question of the Spanish Cer 4-ertificates was disposed of on Saturday last, and also that the act had received the signature of the Queen. Two o'CLocK.

As the Prince Was riding at tho Kensington end of the row, a horse over whom his rider seemed to have lost all control dashed at a furious pace along the ride. The animal came direct upon his Royal Highness, who, seeing that a concussion was inevitable, disengaged his feet from the stirrup-irons, and fell clear of the horse. The concussion came with such force that the Prince's horse was dashed down; rolling over and over. The other animal did not fall, but con tinued its onward career. His Royal Highness was not much hurt, but he must have received an awkward twist, for the heel of his boot with the spur thereon was subse quently picked up by a groom on the spot where the accident took place. So little was the Prince discom moded by the accident that in the evening he was present at the royal banquet at the Trinity House. BRITISH Atlantic & St. Lawrence nom., Baroda. gu. 5 per cent..

BURGLARY.-JACK ROBINSON IN TROUBLE.—A well known thief, who called himself Jack Robinson, was brought before Mr. Paget charged with burglary. Martin Fall, a police constable, No. 232 K, stated that at half-past 2 o'clock this morning, he saw a woman at the window of the house, No. 3, Union-terrace, Commer cial-road. She called for assistance and said there was a thief in the house. She told him to go round to the back of the houses in Dorset-street. He did so, and got on the top of a wall of the yard next to No. 3 Union-terrace. The prisoner at the same time climbed on to the top of the wall and jumped into the street. He jumped off the wall and pinioned the prisoner. Eliza Bromage, a single woman, of No. 3, Union-terrace was awoke this morning by the breakage of a pane of glass. She went down stairs and saw that a pane of glass had been forced out, and that a piece of rug was plastered over it with gum to deaden the noise. The pane of glass dis turbed was near the catch of the window. Directly after wards she heard a door tried. She looked out to see what was the matter, and saw the prisoner standing on the cis tern. She went to the drawing-room window and called the police. She afterwards went to the back of the house and saw the prisoner in the yard and climb the wall. John Phillips and George Robjent, police constables, said they gave chase to the prisoner, and after a long run he was captured on the wooden bridge at Shadwell. The prisoner was committed for trial.

A firm trade. COLONIAL. In the foreign and colonial produce markets during the last few days there has been rather more animation. Sugars have changed hands to a moderate extent at steady prices. Coffee has been in better demand, at fully the late a d vanc e ; while in rice, tea, and tallow the dealings have been to a limited extent at about former rates. TEA.—Thero has been very little business doing, the trade having deferred their operations until the public sales which commence to-day, when about 40,000 packages of Chinese produce will be offered, all without reserve. SUGAR.—A fair amount of business has been entered into, and prices generally remain steady. In refined goods there is little variation to report as regards values. COFFEE.—The market has shown symptoms of activity, and superiorqualities of plantation Ceylon have sold readily at the late advance. liJcE.—Only a moderato demand has prevailed, and the few dealings entered into have led to no material change in value. SALTPETRE.—Business is very dull. There have been no public sales, and quotations aro nominally unaltered. TALLOW. --The market is dull.
