In the money market the demand for accommo dation has not been large, and the rates have con tinued at 2i and 3 per cent., the former quotation only having been accepted in exceptional instances. There were no gold operations at the Bank on Saturday. Notice is given that the application list for shares in Overend, Gurney, and Co. will close on Thursday for London, and on Friday for the country and Continent.

The accounts from the various manufacturing districts state that during the past week there has been very little business transacted, owing to the attention that has been absorbed by electioneering Platters. At Manchester prices of both cloths and yarns, however, have remained steady, while there has been a fair demand for winter fabrics in the Woollen districts of Leeds, Bradford, and Hudders field at fully previous rates. The hosiery and lace departments of Leicester and Nottingham have re mained rather quiet ; while at Birmingham, Shef field, and Wolverhampton there has been very little animation exhibited in most branches of business connected with the home trade.

Day. MARK-LANE. The trade for wheat in the country markets held on Sa turday was rather quiet. Holders, however, were firm, and previous quotations were supported. In the value of bar ley, oats, beans, and peas, no quotable change took place, but the demand for those articles was somewhat restricted. Flour sold steadily, at full prices. On the Continent the wheat trade is quiet, but the de mand for spring corn rules steady. Advises from Now York report a further increase in the export demand for wheat and flour, but at reduced quotations. Small supplies of home-grown produce were received up to our market last week. The imports from abroad con sisted of 77,393 qrs. wheat, 9,620 barley, 65,993 oats, 1,721 beans, 765 peas, 745 linseed, 2,000 rapeseed, 2,540 maize, 40 sundry seeds, 115 sacks and 3,440 brls. flour. The arrival of wheat fresh up from Essex to this morn ing's market was very moderate, but there was a somewhat, increased supply of Kentish produce on the stands. The total supply of English wheat, however, exhibited for sale was limited, whilst the condition of the produce was good. Harvest-work, as regards the cutting of wheat, rye, barley, and oats, having been commenced this morning in some of the forward agricultural districts, millers appeared desirous of awaiting the results of the crops before making any ex tensive purchases. Tho trade for English wheat was, in conseptence, in a somewhat inactive state. Nevertheless, a clearance of the supply was effected, whilst last Mon day's currency was steadily supported. Scarcely any American wheat was on offer, and the supply of foreign wheat on the stands was chiefly confined to Russian produce. Good and foreign wheats were hold at fully late rates, and inferior qualities supported previous quotations ; but the transactions were almost entirely of a retail character, and the state of the trade, generally speaking, ruled quiet. _ _ Floating cargoes of grain were in moderate demand, at about stationary prices. The supply of barley consisted almost entirely of foreign produce. English qualities were quite nominal in value ; for foreign parcels the trade was slow at barely late rates. Malt was in fair average request at last Monday's cur rency. The market was abundantly supplied with foreign oats, but scarcely any home-grown produce was on offer. Tho trade was slow for all qualities, and the prices realised ex hibited a fall of ls.-per quarter, as compared with - the late highest point, being a reduction of 6d. per quarter from Monday last. Beans—the supply of which on sale was limited—sold at last Monday's currency. Peas were in but moderate request, yet prices ruled firm. The show of samples on offer was limited. The flour trade was quiet, yet prices wero unaltered from Monday last. The supply of barrel flour on sale was limited.

Sales, consequently, progressed slowly, but at full prices. A few of the beasts from Tonning sold at from 4s. 8d to 4s 10d. per 81bs. With English beasts we were very moderately supplied, and the quality of each breed was by no means prime. The arrival from Scotland was seasonably good. Prime Scots, crosses, Lincolns, &c., moved off readily at prices fully equal to last week. Otherwise, the trade was quiet, at late rates. Tho general top figure was ss. 4d.; the extreme price, ss. 6d. per. Sibs. From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton shire we received 1,700 shorthorns, Ice. ; from other parts of England, 500, various breeds ; from Scotland, 200, Scots and crosses ; and from Ireland, 60 oxen and heifers. Tho show of sheep was again very moderate, and in middling condition. Good and prime breeds changed hands freely at high currencies ; but inferior sheep moved off slowly at late rates. Downs and half-breds realised Gs. to to Os. 4d., in some instances Gs. 6d. Lambs were in moderate supply and fair request, at from 6s. to is. 4d. per 81bs., being previous rates. The supply of calves was moderate, and the demand was quiet, on former terms, viz., from 4s. 2d. to ss. 2d. per 81bs. _ Prime small pigs moved off freely, at full prices.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Mr. Registrar Murray.) IN RE J. PRIME-AN ENGINEER IN THE ROYAL NAVY. This bankrupt was described as an engineer on board one of hor Majesty's men-of-war now stationed at Sheer ness, and to-day was appointed for proof of debts. The claims already filed amount to £250, and the bankrupt ascribes his failure to the insufficiency of his pay to main tain himself and his family. IN RE A. D. HIGMAN-A CAPTAIN IN THE ROYAL MARINES The Improved Industrial Dwellings Company (Limited). This company, which our readers will recollect was started a year or two since in furtherance of Mr. Alderman Watelrow's efforts to provide the working classespf large towns with suitable dwellgs at remunerative rents, held its fourth half-yearly meeting at the Mansion House on Saturday. The minutes of the previous meeting having been read by the secretary, Mr. J. A. Mays, were confirmed, and the report of the directors and statement of accounts to June 30 were received and adopted. The report stated that the whole of the subscribed capital, £30,000 has been paid up, less £l5O, still outstanding. Up to the date of closing the accounts, the sum:of £23,542 ls. id. had been expended in the purchase of land and in the erection of buildings; and it is expected that the balance will, in the course of a few weeks, be absorbed in completing the seve ral undertakings now in hand. At Tower-buildings, Brew house-lane, Wapping, nearly the whole of the GO dwellings for families are occupied. The block of buildings at King's cross-road, Bagniggo-wells, has been named Cobden-build ings. The dwellings here have been occupied for some few , weeks, and the shops on the ground floor are also let. Of the five blocks in Old St. Pancras-road, two were fully occupied in the first week of the present month. It is expected two others will be ready for occupation in a few weeks, and the fifth completed in October. These five blocks, which have been named Stanley Buildings, provide ample ac commodation for 100 families, and as they are in the immediate neighbourhood of the Great Northern Railway Station at King's-cross, and several large manufacturing establishments employing a great number of hands, the applications already received are greatly in excess of the number of tenements. From the experience of the working of the company up to the present time the directors believe that a minimum dividend of £5 per cent. per annum may be permanently relied upon. Mr. Alderman Watorlow has recently been in communication with the Government, and has obtained from the Lords of the Treasury, a promise to introduce, at the opening of the next session of parliament, a bill to enable the Publio Works Loan Commissioners to advance money at 31 per cent. interest upon the mortgage of improved dwellings for the industrial classes; and, in order to enable the company to avail itself of favourable opporunities of borrowing money upon security of its pro perty the directors recommend that a resolution be passed authorising the directors to mortgage the company's pro perty to such an extent as they may deem advisable. The accounts show that £B2l odd remains standing to the credit of the company's profit and loss account. The directors recommended that £750 of this sum be appropriated to the payment of a dividend of 5 per cent. per annum on the paid-up capital of the company. Since the 30th June, £2,000 has been subscribed to the capital of the company ; land a considerable sum is likely to be subscribed by friends of the movement in Greenwich, with a view to the erection of three or four blocks of buildings on a vacant piece of ground close to the parish church. Nego tiations are pending for an eligible piece of land in the City-road, about a mile from the Bank, as a site for three blocks of buildings. If this is secured a further sum of £B,OOO will be at once required, which will have to be raised by mortgage, or by additional capital. The directors feel it necessary again to point out that favourable sites for the erection of additional blocks of buildings aro frequently brought to their notice ; but for purchasing or leasing these, and for erecting buildings thereupon, additional ca pital will be required. There are 180 unalloted shares, for which the directors are ready to receive applications. Resolutions were passed authorising the directors to mortgage the company's property, and declaring a dividend at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum on the paid-up capital. Mr. Alderman WATERLOW, in moving a vote of thanks to Lord Stanley, adverted to the influence which his lord ship had exerted as chairman in securing for the company the hold it had on the public estimation, and he congratu lated the shareholders that, looking at the progress already made and the profits realised, there was every ground for asserting that a profit of 5 per cent. might be relied upon for the future. Sir C. Fox alluded to efforts which his son was making towards raising the capital for erecting improved dwellings at Greenwich. Lord STANLEY expressed his anxiety to do all he could to further the objects of the company. The only thing that could be said against them was that their capital was too small, and their operations confined in consequence. He thought they might now legitimately ask the public to extend the funds at their disposal, on the ground of the enterprise having been proved to be commercially success ful as well as highly beneficial to tho working classes. Mr. Alderman FiNms said ho had felt all along that the best course would be to refrain from asking his friends to join in the undertaking until it had been made to pay, and now that that result had been gained he should certainly advise them to join. The mooting then concluded. Remarkable Railway Aceidnit. value of other kinds, in which this improvement was less marked, has had a drooping tendency.

"A SAD STORY."- - Under the above head a case was reported a few days ago, in the course of which it appeared that a little girl named Baker was living with her mother, who was leading a profligate life. Mr. Knox told her mother that is she attended on the following day he would endeavour to get her daughter into some school, with the view of removing her from the scenes she was likely to witness, and thus saving her from destruction. On Satur day the mother, accompanied by the little girl, attended, and the latter was taken by Mr. Welsh, tho office-keeper, to, and readily received at, the Training Refuge for Girls, Lisson-street, 'Marylebone ; an excellent institution, sup ported by voluntary contributions, where a number of girls, whose ages vary from 11 to 16, are being fitted to become domestic servants. A USEFUL CAUTION.-Mr. Tyrvrhitt this morning re ceived a letter (enclosing a handbill), fn which the writer says, " Good service would be done . by tho press noticing the enclosed handbill, and that if the plan were more gene rally adopted the community would gain in a sanitary and moral way, besides the saving that would bo the result ; it would, for instance, relieve the dustholo, which is a fever nest, and causes much siokness, especially at this season of the year." Tho handbill, which is headed "Area Thieves—Caution to Householders"—is issued from the Central Depot of the Rag Collecting Brigade of the London Ragged Schools, and says :—" As numerous robberies takelplaco in conse quence of encouragement given to a class of persons who, under the pretence of selling or buying various articles, find their way into the areas and kitchens _early and late in the day, employers are earnestly requested to secure their promises against the intrusion of such as hawkers, jar collectors, &c. Tho rag collecting brigade of the London Ragged School is commended to the notice of heads of households as a legi timate medium for the utilisation and disposal of these commodities, which are either wantonly wasted or made the moans of unauthorised profit. By patronising the rag brigade, moreover, a most i mpor t an t an d b enevolent o bj ect would bo assisted, viz., the employment of a largo number of poor, deserving boys in honest industry." THAMES. STEALING BRANDY FROM A SHlP.—Johnson Robinson, a black man, was brought before Mr. Knox charged with stealing a bottle of brandy. Yesterday morning, at half-past 11 o'clock, a London Dock gate-keeper, named Francis Andois, stopped the pri soner as he was leaving the dock, and found upon him a bottle of brandy. The prisoner said he belonged to the barque Trinidad in the doek, and the brandy was given to him by his boarding-house keeper. He was confronted with the man he mentioned, and his statement was denied. The cargo of the Trinidad was overhauled, and a case of brandy in the aftorhold was found to be tampered with. Two bottles of brandy were missing from the case. The one found on the prisoner bore a label similar to the bottles in the case. Captain James Lodge, the master of the Trinidad, said the prisoner was with him last voyage, and ho had so much faith in his honesty that he made him ship-keeper, and intended to take him to sea next voyage. The prisoner, with groat effrontery, said that his board ing-house keeper puchased the bottle of brandy and made him a present of it. Mr. Knox said ho did not believe a word the prisoner said. The case was one of felony, and clearly made out, but in con sideration of the good character which the pri soner had received ho should treat the case as one of unlawful possession. He sentenced the prisoner to two months' im prisonment and hard labour. The Late lefarylebone Election.

SUDDEN DEATH FROM EXCITEMENT.—About half past two o'clock on Tuesday afternoon a gentleman fell dead on the platform of the Scarborou g h railway eta, tion. Ho was a visitor at Scarborough, and was about to enter the express to proceed to London, in order to poll there on Wednesday. Deceased during the morning had attended the nomination at Scarborough, and had applauded Mr. Cayley's speech so highly that he had become ex tremely excited, and had hurried lo the train. Hi s name is believed to be Jarrett. Another gentleman, wh o saw deceased's death, had a lit on the platform, but recovered, —Eastern Montitig News. A RUNAWAY LOCOMOTIVE. One of the most singular accidents that have occurred for many years took place on Saturday afternoon last, on the Great Northern Railway, about a coupli of miles south of Peterborough station. There is a goods train due out of this latter place daily at 2.30 p.m., and on Saturdays it has long been customary to add three or four passenger car riages to the tail end of it, for the conveyance of the market people to Holme and Ramsey. On the above afternoon this train left at its usual time, taking about 100 passengers, but it had scarcely been out of the station five minutes when a telegram was received by the officials from the locomotive depot at New England, about a mile and a half on the north side of Peterborough station, that a large goods engine, under full pressure of steam, had escaped from one of the sheds, minus a driver, or any person whatever in-charge of it. Tho greatest alarm was naturally felt, and before the officials had time to act in any way upon the warning thus conveyed, the runaway monster dashed through the sta tion at the rate of five-and-twenty miles an hour in pursuit of the ill-fated market train, and it was evident that a collision must occur before any one could hope to overtake it, on a eecond engine, even had one been ready at the moment to start; the only hope being that the market train had gained such impetus as would lessen the violence of the collision. Happily this proved to be the case, and although at the spot above indicated the runaway caught the market train and ran into it, the results were not so serious as were at first anticipated, but the last carriage, a coupe second, and almost filled with passengers, had its end completely stove in. As soon as the disabled train was brought to a - stand it was found that forty or fifty passen gers were more or less injured, but all of the number, ex cept seven occupying part of the last carriage, were able to proceed to their destination. The persons in question were brought back to Peterborough by the railway offi cials in a special train which had been dispatched to the scene of the accident, and all except one wore convoyed to the infirmary, where their injuries were speedily attended to, and wo are happy to say they aro in a fair way of reco very. The seventh, Mr. W. D. Gachos, a solicitor, was conveyed to his residence. As yet the positive cause of the casualty is enveloped in mystery, though the blame clearly attaches to the man who had, or should have had, charge of the engine. A searching investigation is to take place, and the offender will doubtless receive the punish ment due to his culpable negligence. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE—This day BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.

FATAL RESULT OF AN ELECTION QUARREL.— CHELTENHAM, Friday.--The recent election which, as has already been mentioned in The Sun, excited a great deal of party spirit, has, unhappily, been the cause of loss of life by violence. To-day an inquest has been hold before Mr. Lovegrove, coroner for Gloucestershire, on the body of Wm. Lynes, a messenger for Col. Berkeley, who died yes terday morning from the effects of a pistol shot wound re ceived on the previous night. It appeared from the evidence ailduced before the coroner that on Wednesday night (the day of the poll for Cheltenham), about 9 o'clock, the de ceased was standing in the High-street, Cheltenham, when a band of music passed playing the tune of " The Bonnets of Blue," blue being the colours of the victorious party. When the band passed Lynes he shouted, " Hurrah for the bonnets of yellow," yellow being the colour of Mr. Ber keley. On this Mr. John Thomas Glass, eon of the parish clerk of Cheltenham, a supporter of Mr. Schreiber, said something to Lynes, who called out "Berkeley for ever," saying that he had worked hard for Mr. Berkeley. Glass thereupon drew a four-barrelled revolver from his pocket, and exclaiming, ," Here's Berkeley for ever' for you," fired it at Lynes, who immediately fell on his knees, exclaiming, " Good God, I'm shot ! I shall die." A crowd csllected, the pistol was taken from Glass, and it was found that three of the four chambers were loaded with powder and ball. After the occurrence Glass, who had been ob served to be in a very excited state all day, seemed sud denly to become calmer, and assisted in raising Lynes from the ground. When Lynes said " I'm dying," Glass seized hold of him and said, " No, no, not so bad as that, I hope." Lynes was carried to the Cheltenham Dispen sary, and on the road exclaimed, " The Lord have mercy and fa b n u 'i t ly b ." ein W g c h ar en ri h ed e on me.

The shot had taken effect in the un fortunate man's mouth, and proved fatal. He lingered until next morning, when ho expired. Glass alleged, through his attorney, that the affair was an accident, that he had no intention of shooting Lynes, and only pointed the pistol at him by way of threat.

SPORTING NOTES. The meetings last week were remarkable for the advance of Gladiateur in the quotation s for the Goodwood Cup, and the increased Support awarded to Clarem on t f or th o Good wood Stakes. Th e f orward position obtained by Moose in the Burghley of Tom Pa rr ' s l ot. The state of the weather Handicap makes him look like the most trustworthy at Stamford on Thursday m orn i ng had an injurious effect upon the general attendance, which was far below the average ; and the afternoon turning out very wet, marred the enjoyment of what under more favourable auspices would have been a capital, day's sport, however inauspi ciously it may be said to have commenced with so small a field for the opening race, and a walk over " to follow.' Only three of the five and twenty entered wont to the post for the Westmoreland Plate, aad though the distance (a mile) was generally supposed to be too far for Cutaway, she had slightly the call of Troublesome at 211 b, as much as 100 to 8 being offered against their solitary opponent, Sundeelah, who did the fielders such a good turn on his. last appearance in the Londesborough Cup at York, in the spring, which he won, beating eleven others. Cutaway's success was never in doubt, and she verified her appellation by cutting out the work from start to finish, winning with appaiently so much in hand that she was very naturally made the favourite for the Borough Members' Plate, which followed Siberia's walk over during a heavy storm for the Doncaster St. Leger. A 51b. penalty increased Cutaway's weight to 7st 71b ; but as the shorter distance (five furlongs) was considered to be all in her favour, this was regarded by her owner as great a "cer tainty" as the previous race, and as none of her opponents were backed with any spirit, the field had only a slight call of Mr. Barber's mare. To Mr. B.'s astonishment, how ever, Cutaway appeared to run slow, and was never in the race, which resulted in the victory of Desiree, after a close struggle with Sundeelah, who, in J. Snowdon's hands, not only performed better than when ridden by his stable boy, but beat his previous conqueror much farther than sho beat him when carrying only 51b less weight. Mr. Barber (who bet close upon £2OO on Cut away this time) was far from satisfied with his mare's per formance, and although Ward had weighed for Helen for the Burleigh Handicap before Jimmy Grimshaw arrived from Abingdon, Mr. B. put up the latter on finding him disengaged, and from the favourable terms upon which she was handicapped, Mr. Barber was again made favourite. Helen's opponents consisted of Stanton, Raglan, Brada mante (51b extra, which told in the heavy ground), Clax ton, Moose, Privateer, Auricula, and Verdant ; Sir Roger, who was a favourite at the lists in town, being an absentee, owing to his having been tried and "found wanting" at the close of the previous week, though a different version of the trial, it seems, got abroad. At first, as little as 4to 1 was taken about Moose, but he declined to 100 to 15 at starting, to which price Privateer advanced after the pre paratory canter, in which he went so much bettor than any thing that the public quite took to him. And the result bore out their excellent judgment, as ho made all the runuingat a good pace, and after a show of a finish with Mr. Parr's horse, won by a length, Helen, who looked as well as anything up to the distance, finished a bad third. This is the first handicap of any consequence that Mr. Savile has won since the Metropolitan, with Parmesan, in 1861, and his success pleased everybody ; though ho was unfortunately stalled off backing the winner for any amount by those who had previously ridden Privateer stigmatising him as "a slow horse, with only one pace." Mr. Savile accordingly took ten ponies and eight fifties only about the winner, and "covered" the outlay by backing Moose for the latter amount r Privateer was tried a good horse last spring, and backed for a large stake for the Derby, and in the Craven meeting ran Tomato to a neck in tho Bennington Stakes, giving her 31b; but having a temper he was afterwards operated upon, and has now evidently got back to his form. live of the half-dozen entered went to the post for the Rutland Stakes, a halt-mile selling race for two-year-olds, and Master Shutt, on the strength of his Chelmsford run ning, was a " pot,, which Fordham only just landed by the shortest of heads, after a slashing set-to with a Colster dale filly belonging to Mr. George Fitzwilliam (who was first in the next stride past the post) and Bismarck. Another field of five came out for the succeeding Fifty Sovereigns Sweepstakes for two year olds, includipg couple of "dark" youngsters in Bugler, by Trumpeter out of Bohemienne, and Othello, by Fazzoletto out of Maid of Newton, neither of whOm pleased the cognoscenti, though Mr. Payne's colt was introduced with a fanfaron as being 101 b better than Staghound. Theiropponents were Chibisa (71b extra), Amazon, and Lucifer, and though it looked "any odds" on Lord Stamford's daily-improving colt, the gt en h ab o l f in th g e th o e u g tl e a n y tl o o n me ß o u t g o le g r e , t to s o ll k th 6 o t i o r 4"kindly," fielders, on thethereby st ren previous kisses back, with something to the good, as the which,e ad winner'scertainty" rfollowed,successtai nty, e n s never in a „ n d o o s u e b_t o . n d O e n r, the ho w W e e v l e t er,rasC tho hw it easy looked on paper for Tippler led to high odds being betted on him. His opponents were Warrior and Red Earl, both of whom " bested" the favourite ; and tho poor pace at which the race was run serving the " roar ing grey," he won cleverly ; the finish between the three accomplished amateurs "up" on this occasion being almost as find as between Fordham, Goater, and T.

The handicap mile Stand Plate either Hesper or Cranbury should win, who are both well suited to the dis tance. The Chesterfield Handicap will go to either Pri vateer or Moulsey, and the Bunney Park Stakes to Miss Harriette. King Hal ought to dispose of the moderate lot opposed to him in the Ruffen].

MARYPORT LIFEBOAT.—On Thursday a grand demonstration took place on the occasion of the launch of the new lifeboat just sent thero by the National Lifeboat Institution. Some thousands of people from the town and the surrounding district witnessed the interesting proces sion. The cost of the station, amounting to £550, was munificently defrayed by Henry Nixson, of Manchester. Although living far inland, Mr. Nixson will thus bo directly, by his lifeboat, assisting in the great and national work of saving the lives of shipwrecked sailors. MR. AND MRS. A.
