MONEY MARKET AND COMMERCIAL iNTELLIGEN, TWELVE O'CLOCK. The Money Market is well supplied with floating capital, but there is a very small demand for it for commercial purposes. The rates are consequently very easy at 4 and 41 per cent. for the best short dated paper. Loans, in the Stock Exchange are in request at 4 per cent. prem. day to day, owing to the settlement now in progress. The Stock Exchange Markets generally present a steady appearance, but the business chiefly nego tiated has been in connection with the arrangement of the bi-montlily settlement... Some of the specula tors, who recently operated for a fall in prices, have oversold, and the repurchasing has caused an im provement, especially in railway shares. The funds are firm, and Consols have advanced 1 per cent. to 8 91 1 for money, and to 89i a for the account. Gold, amounting to £6,000, was taken to the Bank of England yesterday afternoon. The Tasmanian, from the West Indies, has ar rived with £139,433. At the twenty-seventh half-yearly meeting of the Bank of Victoria, held at Melbourne on the 7th August last, the balance-sheet to the 30th June submitted showed an available balance of £39,065 35., out of which a dividend at the rate of 10 per cent. was declared, £25,000, leaving £14,065 35. to be carried forward. From the manufacturing districts the accounts for the past week are, in several instances, more satis factory. At Leeds, Bradford, and Huddersfield, a moderate amount of business has been done in win ter goods, and there has been some inquiry for spring fabrics. At Manchester cloths and yarns have been in fair request at a slight advance. In the hosiery and lace trades of Leicester and Notting ham there has not been much variation, but a more cheerful tone has prevailed in the hardware districts of Birmingham, Sheffield, and Wolverhampton, owing to the more settled state of affairs in Ger many, money-orders for those markets, which had been previously counterbalanced, having been again issued. There was rather more animation in the general business of the port of London last week. At the Custom-house 249 vessels were reported as having arrived from foreign parts, and there was one from Ireland. The entries outwards have been 95 vessels, and those cleared with cargo 99, besides 26 were de spatched in ballast. The departures from the Aus tralian colonies have been five vessels—viz., four to Port Philip and one to New Zealand, the tonnage of which has been 4,176. Two 'CLOCK. According to Reut er ' s telegram from Paris, to day, the French Rentes were 68f. 85c. In the Corn Market to-day there has been a very fair attendance, and a moderate amount of business has been done in both home-grown and foreign wheat, at a further advance of is. per qr. on last Monday's quotations. Barley, oats, beans, peas, and flour fully maintained former values. The English Stock Market has presented a rather active and encouraging aspect. Quotations have been well supported, and in some instances at a slight improvement. Consols are 891 f for money, 8 41 for the Account. The New Threes and the Re duced Annuities are 871 ; Exchequer Bills, ls. 3 8. prem. ; Bank of England Stock, 242: India St ock, 212 ; India 5 per Cents., 105/ 4 ; and ditto Enfaced 4 per Cents., 84. Most descriptions of Foreign Stocks have been dealtin at enhanced values. Turkish 5 per Cents. have advanced Ito 291 ; Italian, to 541 55 ; and Mexican, 1 to 154 16 ; on the other hand, Greek have declined f to 13f 4 ; Spanish Passive continue at 211 1 ; and the Certificates at 141. American Securities are rather depressed. United States 5-20 Bonds are 701 ; Erie Shares, 1 9 60 ; and Illinois, 78 79. Atlantic and Great Western Debentures have declined 1 to 62 64, but the Consolidated Mortgage continue firm at 41 43. In the Miscellaneous Market there is very little animation. Atl ant i c Telegraph stock has declined to 60 ; Credit Foncier of England are at 31 ; General Credit and Financial ebb- St I i nutISMC:" Bay c on , Pan at 17 ; Telegraph Construction and Maintenance have advanced to 16 ; and Anglo- American Telegraph to 16. have The operati ons i n the Railway Share Market Pbeen to a fair extent, and in several instances rices S howed an upward tendency.

London Chartered__ of Australia, however, have improved to „r 2.1. Consolidated are marked 5/, and Union of a-,ondon 3i The Port Phillip and Colonial Gold Mining Co mpany have to-day received more encouraging advines, the yield showing an improvement for the months of July and August over June of about 10 qrs. per ton. A profit of £l,BOO during July Paid off p rev i ous debt, and enabled £1,200 to had be divided between the Associated Companies. A re mittance of £7OO has been received. The directors of the English and Australian Cop- Der Company (Limited) have received advices from their manager, dated Adelaide, 29th August last. The quantity of coal at Kooringa was 710 tons ; at liapunda, 454 tons ; and at Port Adelaide, 436 tons. There were three furnaces at work at sort Xooring 11 a, and se ven f urnaces and two refiners at Adelaide. Since date of last advices ship nlents of 200 tons of copper had been made. MINING MARKET.

We have often had occasion to make honourable mention of this name in the columns of The Anglo- American Times. It is a very gratifying circum stance that the high opinion we expressed of his merits has been universally approved by our readers. Our purpose has not been to flatter Mr. FIELD, or to indulge in anything akin to a fulsome eulogy. He is far above and beyond aught of this kind. As faithful chroniclers of passing events, we have re corded the facts of his public career, being perfectly content to leave our contemporaries and posterity to do him justice. Recent occurrences, especially in connection with the Atlantic Cable Banquet, at Liverpool, have again called attention to the name of Mr. FIELD. It will be remembered that he was officially noticed in that brilliant commemorative occasion by the noble lord who presided. The regret was expressed by the distinguished chairman that, it was not in the power of her Majesty, Queen VICTORIA, to bestow the well-earned honour of Knighthood on Mr. FIELD, coupled with the avowed opinion that if it were tendered to that gentleman it would probably be declined. We are not in the councils of Mr. FIELD, and know nothing of his private convictions with regard to regal honours. It is not for us, thqrefore, or, in deed, for any one but himself, to state how far he 1 1 may agree on that subject with Mr. GEORGE PEA BODY. Neither is it to be presumed that the titled presiding officer of the banquet at Liverpool had held any communication with Mr. FIELD touching this matter, because, if he had done so, he would undoubtedly have announced it to the guests at that memorable board. No one could suppose. that Mr. FIELD knew that any allusion would be made to him, or, that, if he had a right to infer it, he would offer any suggestions with reference to the part he has taken, from the inception of the - idea and commencement, to the successful close of this world-wide enterprise. What Mr. FIELD has done in the work of laying the Atlantic Telegraph Cable is before the nations ; and no patent of nobility can add one jot or tittle to his hard-won honours. There stand the facts on the fair pages of history; and there they will stand as long as the ocean rolls its waves, or the electric flash shall pass through its wide and deep waters. It cannot, and will not, be deniel that Mr. FIELD was one of the first men, either in England or America, to move in this matter. It was he who drew up the first papers. He obtained the first subscriptions. He persevered when almost all ot4rs gave way. He crossed and recrossed the bil lows, beneath which the wire was to be laid, oftener than any other man, for the sole purpose of per fecting those plans without which the work would never have been done. He bore the scoffs and sneers of unbelievers, the cold rebuffs of calculating financiers, the callous indifference of the unthinking mass, the jealousies of rival interests, the secret and avowed hatreds of national animosities, 1 1 through winter and summer, through sunshine and storm ; and, in the midst of all this, he never fal tered for a day—no, not for an hour. In reviewing these facts, in the pages of The Anglo-American Timer, we have no complaint to make with regard to the course of British states men and publicists toward Mr. FIELD. It is for them to decide as to the standard of duty in this case. They are as well aware as we' are that. all they and we may say and do in such a public con cern must be passed in review by posterity. If they have done justice to Mr. FIELD, well. If not, pos terity will do it for him.—Anglo-American Times. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

In the country markets, held on Saturday, the demand for good and fine dry wheats ruled steady, at full prices ; but as regards damp produce, the trade was in an active state, on former terms. Fine barley was firm in price ; but middling qualities sold heavily at barely late rates. For gther articles the demand ruled quiet, at late quota tions. On the Continent, the trade for wheat and flour rules firm, at full quotations. At New York the amount of busi ness done in wheat and flour for e:cport to Great Britain is small. The arrivals of English producP. up to our market last week, were but moderate. The i aiports purchased con sisted of 21,352 quarters of wheat:; 3,596 barely; 36,374 oats ; 30,000 linseed ; 1,592 rape a:d oil seeds ; 375 sun dry seeds ; and 2,065 sacks of flour.. About an average business was transacted in flour, at fully rate rates. Several parcels of-Russian flour have re cently been received from Moscow . ria St. Petersburg. The quality is fine, the price being 5.05. to 525. per sack of 2801bs. Town made advanced to s►.`•ls. per 2801bs. _ . .._ ..... East India linseed and rapeseed ruled firm, at quite late rates. Other seeds met a slow sale; on former terms. The cake trade was firm, and American qualities realised an advance of 2s. 6d. per ton. The supply of English wheat received fresh up to our market to-day was very moderate, and the total supply of home-grown produce on offer was somewhat restricted. There were several buyers from Yorkshire and Liverpool in attendance, and the supply of wheat was taken off readily, at an advance in price, as compared with Monday last, of fully is. per quarter. The market was mod era t e ly supplied with foreign wheat • Dry parcels . were in req ue st, a nd changed hands at rather more money. Damp produce was firm in price. Floating cargoes of wheat were in request, and transac tions were concluded on French account. Prices were rather higher than on Monday last. Spring corn afloat realised full quotations. The supply of barley on sale was but moderate. Fine parcels changed hands at fully late rates. Secondary and inferior qualities wero dull, at the recent decline in their value. There was a fair demand for malt at late rates. The market was moderately supplied with oats. There was a good sale for most qualities at an advance in the quotations of is. per quarter. Beans were in short supply, and the trade ruled steady at late rates. Peas supported last Monday's quotations with a mode rate demand. The market was scantily supplied. - - ---- ---- Wheat— Essex and Kent, red,. old, Per qr 4Bs to 533 Do, old sBs 640 Do., white, old 64s 67s Do, new Norfolk and Lincoln, red, old —s —s Do., nev.• Taavera 6ss 665 . • Rye— Harley—Grinding Malting 4os 58s Malt--Suffolk and Norfolk Brown Kingstown and Ware Chevalier 7os 76s Oats—Yorkshire and Lincolnsh., Feeding 190 26s .... ,.— Potato - Youghal and Cork, black 193 25s Cork, white 223 27s Scotch, Feeding l9s 25s Beans—Tick . 3Bs 42s Pigeons ,,.. 46s 50s Peas—Grey, Maple White Boilers Flour—Town-made, per 2801 b • Suffolk 49s 53s 32s 34s Stockton and Norfolk American, per barrel French, per sack 268 36s WOOL.

R. Mail, 71 THE STRAND UNION, says the Lond on R ev i ew , has a large amount a decayed human refuse always in store. For ever hearseing off some of it, more yet comes to hand to await its cemetery turn. Under the best of circumstances, sores and sickness, internal disease and external maiming, are hard to bear. They who have nursed where all that wealth could command and affectionate service offer, know yet what it is to watch by day and night for one moment's light of ease, to dispel the clouds of weariness and pain which have made the sufferer's life mise rable. But when suffering present, and painful to body and soul, comes upon the lot of those to whom all life has been a struggle ; when it is to be endured under shelter grudged, food stinted, medical aid made cheapened piece work, medicines prescribed by contract, left to be adminis tered by the ignorant, and very often by the drunken ; when the sick pauper becomes but one drop of a large lake of sickness pumped into theparochial reservoir to be tended, comforted, or any way aided, by an ill-appointed live machinery of the coarsest and least sympathetic material; when the dying are for ever in company with the dead, and the lot of all tends—for any effort made to prevent it— to more suffering and then death, the picture is one revolt ing to humanity. Tne quotation of gold at Paris is about at par, and the short exchange on London is 25.25 per XI sterling.

There was a full average supply of foreign stock on offer in our market to-day, in fair condition. On the whole, the trade was in a sluggish state, and, in some instances, the quotations had a drooping tendency. The arrivals of beasts fresh up from our own grazing districts were only moderate, but of improved quality. The supply from Ireland was on the increase. From Scotland, however, no stock was received. Prime breeds changed hands freely, at full currencies. Otherwise the trade was heavy, on rather lower terms. The top quo tation was 5s 4d per 81bs. From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton shire we received about 1,300 short horns, dx., from other parts of England GOO various breeds, and from Ireland 290 omen and heifers. The supply of sheep was again limited for the time of year. Prime Downs and half-breds were in good request, at full quotations. Heavy sheep, however, were dull, and 2d per 81bs lower than last week. The highest quotation was Gs 4d per 81bs. Calves were in short supply and fair request, at late rates, viz., from 48 6,1 to 52 Gd per Blbs.

MANSION-HOUSE. ASSAULTING THE POLlCE.—Francis Allen and Fanny Ellis were charged, before Mr. Alderman Finnis, with as vaulting a police-constable under the following circum stances : City Constable 853 said that about 12 o'clock on Satur day night he saw the female prisoner, who was a prosti tute, in Bishopsgate-street Without, and he desired he r to go away. She refused, and when he endeavoured to move her on she caught hold of his hand in her teeth and bit him severely. lie then took hold of her, when she threw herself down, screaming and biting him on the leg. There was a large crowd collected, and the male prisoner attempted to rescue the female from him. Ile struck the witness on the ear and knocked him down twice. Another constable came up, and he took him into custody, when the prisoner attempted to escape. The female prisoner was v'67 violent, and it required two constables to take her to the station. Another constable deposed that ho found the female prisoner struggling on the ground, but he saw nothing of the assault. _ _ _ . _The prisoners both denied the charge, and the female said that the first witness knocked her down without any provocation. They were fined 10s. each, or in default seven days. EMBEZZLEMENT.—Richard Waddington was charged with embezzling £416 14s. 2d., the property of his em ployers. From the evidence it appeared that the prisoner was agent for alarge flax warehouse in Manchester, and that although his salary was only £2O his income averaged £8 a week. On the 10th inst. a letter was received by the manager of the firm from the prisoner, admitting that he had em bezzled a large amount of money, and praying his inter cession, stating at the same time that he would pay £3 a week off his commission, and sell his furniture to meet his defalcation. Mr. Lewis, senior, attended for the prosecution, and two cases of embezzlement to the amount of £76 were fully proved. The other charges were not proceeded with, and the prisoner was committed for trial . MARLBOROUGH-STREET , A VIOLENT SCENE IN A LIA.TUARKET SUPPER-ROOM.— Margaret Prescott, an unfortunate, was charged before Mr- Tyrwhitt, with assaulting Mr. Kalinski, artist in glass works, at Wade-lane, Leeds. Mr. Kaliuski said—Being in town on a visit to his brother, he went witblim to the Argyll-rooms on Saturday night, and afterwards went with him to supper at the re freshment rooms, No. 66, Haymarket. The prisoner was there with another female and two gentlemen. The gen tlemen left, and the prisoner and her companion came and sat by me and my brother, and asked us to stand come supper. I refused, and then the other woman made use of very bad language, and prisoner said, "If you don't I'll throw this glass at you,"and sbe went to the table and took up a glass and deliberately threw it at me, cutting my head very badly. I lost a great deal of blood. I think it a most scandalous thing that because a person who goes to a place to take supper does not think proper to treat persons of the prisoner's class that they are to be treated in such a way. My friend went after the other female and held her, but the landlord took her part and she got away. We have as much right in the place, even if we are Jews, as anybody else, and I think the landlord's con duct most unjustifiable. By Mr. Tyrwhitt—l was attended by a doctor (Dr. Tothill, the divisional surgeon), and think it fortunate that I am still alive, as it is a bad wound. Mr. 11. Kalinski gave similar evidence to his brother, and went on to say—" The prisoner and her companion were very violent. Knives and forks and glasses - were thrown at us, and were flying about the room. I seized the pri soner's companion, and the landlord struck his hand to release her. I lost my hold and she got away. I have every reason to believe that women are encouraged to the place by the landlord for the purpose of preying on cus tomers. Police-constable Evans, 113 o—Hearing a smashing of glass in the Haymarket I went to No. 66, and the prisoner was given into my custody by the prosecutor, who was smothered in blood. The prisoner said it was her companion who threw the glass at the prosecutor, and called a witness, a waiter at the rooms, to support her assertion, but the waiter admitted that he was only present during part of the time that the glass throwing was going on. Mr. Tyrwhitt--I believe the propecutor's statement, and I shall fine the prisoner £3 or a month. The prosecutor appears to have got amongst a nice set of people, and such a man as the landlord ought not to be allowed to have a license. THE CIRCULAR NUISANCE.—The following letter was handed this morning to our reporter by Mr. Tyrwhitt : " Abbey-road, N.W., Oct. 13. "I venture to forward for your inspection a circular left at my house last evening purporting to be issued by a firm called Clay and Co., of Regent-street, in reference to a sale of cotton goods, which they state formed part of the stock of ilsburg, Spursfield, and Corven,' bankrupts, of Can non-street West, E.C. Especially I would call your atten tion to the highly objectionable nature of the envelope in which these circulars are issued, doubtless used to call special attention to the contents. In the London Direc tory' of 1865 and 1866, there is no such firm to be found_as that whose stock is said to have been purchased.—l am, sir yours obediently,—" The writer enclosed his card. The circular is one of the usual kind respecting a " Sublime Stock of Silks" for sale at the usual "Alarming Sacrifice." THAMES. FURIOUS DRIVING.—THE MARINER SHIPWRECKED ON SHORE.— Capt. Angus M'Sennon, the master of a ship, was brought before Mr. Paget charged with being drunk and furiously driving a horse and chaise. Nicholas, a police constable, No. 36 11, stated that last night he saw the prisoner driving a horse and chaise at a most furious and reckless pace along the High-street, Whitechapel, and he drove against the posts of the re tiring place in the middle of the road. The shafts of the chaise were broken to pieces, and the prisoner and his lady were both thrown into the road, and were much hurt. He raised them from the ground and took the prisoner into cus tody. Tho prisoner was very drunk and quite incapable of taking care of himself or driving a horse and chaise properly. Mr. Paget—At what pace was he driving ? Witness—About 10 miles an hour and very wildly. Mr. Paget—Were there any horses and vehicles about the street ? Witness—Not at that time; there was nothing about. The prisoner -I deny being drunk, I could notoll the horse in. I can steer a ship very well, but I could not steer the horse ; it got out of its course a point or two, and would not obey the helm. Mr. Paget—ls there any doubt about the prisoner being intoxicated ? Nicholas—None whatever, sir. There is a large erection in the middle of the street, and he drove right upon it, and both shafts were smashed up in a moment. Mr. Paget said it was fortunate for the prisoner that he had put no one in danger but himself, and that there were no vehicles about at the time. He would take into consi deration that the prisoner brought a severe punishment upon himself by his recklessness and inebriety, and that being so he would discharge him, but in doing so he must say it was not very creditable for the master of a ship to bo drunk on a Sunday night, and to drive recklessly along a public thoroughfare. A NEW LIFE OF GARRICIC.—Mr. Percy Fitzgerald promises, in January, a new and complete Lifo of David Garrick, in which his claims to recognition for social gifts, private worth, generosity and virtue, as well as for dra matic ability, will be put forward and insisted on. That there is an opening for such a work, says the Athol /rum, a single glance at the meagre accounts of Murphy and Davies will show. A " GUIDE DE PARIS" is to be brought out for the Great Exhibition. It will be splendidly printed, and will contain contributions by Victor Hugo, Larnartine, Theophile Gautier, and other writers of note. GALLERY OF ILLUSTRATION. —This evening (Mon day) Mr. and Mrs. T. German Reed and Mr. John Parry will re-open for the seaso n.

IC2i 31 SPORTING NOTES. The Newmarket meeting last week was full o interest and excitement, the commencement of which was the unfortunate and fatal accident which befel Mr. Ten Broeck's Fitzroy on Monday whilst running in his match against Pericles, the more serious as he was winning in a canter, and had previously been backed for large sums by his owner for next year's Derby. The Cesarewitch brought out a field of 25, and upon the num bers being hoisted Proserpino became a warm favourite, as little as 3 to 1 being accepted in many quarters, whilst Chepstow and Lecturer had a great many supporters at their respective prices of 7 and 10 to 1. After a fine race from the Bushes with the first four—all3-yr-olds—Lecturer proved himself one of the best horses of his year by winning cleverly, and lauded a stake for his party estimated at little less than £lOO,OOO. The Marquis of Hast ings, it appears, wins nearly half that sum, whilst John Day and Mr. Wilkinson, to whom the horse belongs, win large sums. Mr. S windells' filly was only beaten a neck for second place. The excite ment of this great handicap had scaicely cooled down before it was disagreeably (to the backers of horses) increased by the defeat of Achievement, who, giv ing away 61b., was beaten a head from Plaudit, whose owner. had such a good opinion of him for next year's Derby that a large commission executed in town on his behalf was the principal feature of the betting during the week intervening between the First and Second October Meetings. In both this instance and on the ensuing day forthe Middle Park Plate, where she had to succumb to the Rake, her partisans have had a fearful time of it, as odds . of 3 and 2 to 1 laid in both cases made a serious inroad into their exchequer. My impression is, like scores of other good two-yr-olds, she has been literally run off her legs, and will never be heard of again successfully. Not one animal in a hundred will do the work she has been asked to do throughout alp season ; indeed about the only one I recollect who turned out a first-class three•yr-old after such punishing performances, was Thormanby. It appears that Mr. Sutton has challenged Count La grange to run a. match with Lord Lyon against Gladiateur at a difference of 141 b at the next Newmarket meeting, which has been declined. A great deal of unpleasantness was caused on Thursday by the unconditional withdrawal of. Purchase, after running a dead heat with Ea.sby in a Sweepstakes of 10 sovs each. The betting was 6to 4 agst the latter, whilst 7to 1 was laid against Purchase. The following is the owner's explantiou : "Newmarket, Thursday. . . " Gentlemen,—l fear I have this afternoon committed a mistake in not running off the dead heat between my mare Purchase and Easby—most unwittingly on my part, for really, to tell the truth, I was ignorant of the rules con cerning dead heats. I merely consulted my own interests, and finding that, though I had backed both, I won most by Easby, 1 ordered my mare to go home w►thout thinking any more of the matter. The only answer I can make is to place my mare Purchase at the disposal of the stewards to run off the dead heat to-morrow. I shall be perfectly satisfied with any decision they may come to.—l am, gen tlemen, &c., " HENRY CHAPLIN." It is a great pity that Mr. Chaplain did not allow the dead heat to be run off, or divided the stakes, as by doing so he would have given universal satisfaction. However, he did everything in his power by placing himself entirely in the hands of the Jockey Club, who decided the race in favour of Easby. The most noteworthy feature of Friday was Baron Rothschild's running Janitor in a Seventy Pound Plate, which he won in a canter, and in conse quence allowing him to be claimed for the 300 sovs he was entered to be sold for in that race. The Cambridgeshire with its 101 acceptances is a difficult nut to crack Between the top and bottom weights there is at first sight the alarming difference of four and a-half stones, but many of the horses handicapped,would not be in the race with any weight on their back, and it will answer my present purpose to discuss the chances of the following eighteen horses, from whom I think the winner is likely to spring.

Proserpina 3 5 7 H. Goater. Master Richard, who was first favourite for the Great Eastern Railway Handicap ; and, as is customary nowadays with animals supported by the public was not started for it, is, I should think frOm the state of the market, likely to be an absentee for this event also, otherwise he must have a great chance, as he has a wonderful tarn of speed over this distance of ground. Xi belongs to Sir Joseph Hawley, one of the most popular sportsmen of the day; and is decidedly one of the best class horses in the race. As a two year old his performances wore first-rate, and ho was always considered a better horse than Blue Riband when they were together in the late John Osborne's stable, but un fortunately ho was not engaged as a three year old in any of the principal weight for age races of this season. Since he came into the possession of Sir Joseph for a large sum of money at the late Mr. Osborne's sale, he has only appeared in public ou two occasions, and as he did not figure conspicuously in the City and Suburban Handicap, the best test of his for m is a reference st 71h to the Stewards' Cup at Goodwood, when carrying 7 nth he ran second to Sultan, 4 yrs, who onl y gave him for the year ; and it should not beforghoesttteenn that, in lengths n ng t t h h is s field of 21 horses, he gave to Plutus, from him, and who ran third, no less than 211 b. Toma hawk is likely to represent the Baron. E toile Filante is no unworthyrepresentative of the French division, and arepe tition of Palestro's victory with him is by no means out of the question. The Duke of York had won the October Handicap a long way from home, and is sure to distin guish himself again this journey. Caithness and Chepstow have already been made notorious, but there is a great probability of the latter becoming distinguished as well ; indeed it is only a question of market operations to in sure the latter, in my opinion, being enrolled amongst the Cambridgeshire celebrities, notwithstanding " his rolling about so much." Claxton is reported to be a good thing, but with Paris fit and well the American has a chance second to none, and he only wants to be in the same form as when he won the Earl Spencer's Plate last year, with Bst 21b, in a canter by two lengths, beating the Queen of Trumps and 20 other horses, giving Lord Bateman's mare 2 yrs and blb weight. Any demonstration in his favour is decidedly worth following. Abergeldie and Proserpine are a danger ous pair, but my present impression is that the former will turn out the real" Simon Pure." Scarborough, who is very quiet just now in the market, is reported to be one of William Day's certainties, and no trainer makes fewer mis taites than he does ; but at present I know very little about the horse. Scheldt will like the course,.and should he re present the stable must have an outside chance. Side-. wind and Thalia have been reserved to bring off a good stake, and whichever it, at the post will certainly get a situation, if it does not absolutely win. Acttea is running into form, and of all the Cesarewitch starters I believe most in her chance. Ambition is very healthy in the market, and on her last year's form is bast in of any of the 3 yr olds, but 1 doubt if she is as good as she was last season. Black Prince is well enough in, and as from his Goodwood Stakes running he cannot stay, will be more likely to perform respectably over a course like this. However, at this pre sent time of writing, my preference is for X I, Paris, Aber geldie, and Tomahawk, but it will bo soon enough to come to a final conclusion about the race next week. The meetings of the present week include Cheltenham, Harrow, and Hereford, but I can say very little about them. At the first named, which is judiciously limited to one day, M. Brayley has only to send ENDSLEIGII to secure the Gloucestershire Stakes. Harrow, on Tuesday and Wednesday, under the management of Mr. J. F. Ver rall will be a nice out for Londoners, but has too much plating form for me to make any selection. Hereford occupies Thursday and Friday. I think DUET will win the Herefordshire Stakes ; and on Friday Miss ELizAnEhr e n ought to win the Nursery Handicap Plate, according her : running in the Nursery Plate at York, w here she wa good second to lnes.

In consequence of a report made by the Stewards of Walsall races, the Stewards of the Jockey Club have dis qualified Ward and E. Taylor from riding again in races under the Newmarket rules. _ _ Easby and Purchase wero both claimed after running their dead heat on Thursday, the former by Mr. Chaplin, and the latter by Mr. Ten Broeck. R. Boyce has declined to train any longer for Mr. J. La Mert, and the latter's horses, which comprise Ivanhoe, Aladdin filly by Rataplan out of Carlotta, and a yearling filly by Thormauby out of Prinooo Alaude, have left his stable. Mr. B. has purchased Flamingo, with his Derby and St. Leger engagements. Old Calabar was put up to auction at Newcastle on Wed nesday last, but not sold. All Mr. J. Wood's horses in training will be brought to the hammer on Thursday in the Houghton meeting. Lord Stamford has bought Precise (own sister to Dio phantus), with a filly foal by Claret, and in foal to Ben Webster. At a general meeting of the Jockey Club, held at New market on Wednesday last, Mr. Richard Sutton was elected a member of the Club.

THE TWEED AND TEVIOT.—Last week the water has been in good order for angling, although one or two of the days were too bright for salmon fishing. The number of salmon which have reached the upper parts of the Tweed is not so large as was anticipated, and until we have another flood anglers will not have the sport they were wont to have in the autumn. In the Floors Water, the Duke of St Albans has angled one or two days during the week, but has not had much sport. On Wednesday, Colonel Brainston killed three salmon in the Floors cast ; and at Sprouston on Monday Dr. Geldart killed one weigh ing 211 b., and on Wednesday one 171 b., and another (Jll3. ery little sport is being got in trout-fishing, owing to the chilly nature of the weather. —Scots man. GALASHIELS.—There has been but indifferent sport in this district so far as the season has gone. A few fish have been captured, bnt only in sufficient numbers to keep hope from dying out. On Tuesday Mr. p.l , Vine, of Newcastle, has had the good fortune to kill a magnificent fish in the Ca•idonfoot Pool. It weighed 33 lb., and mea sured 3 feet 4 inches in length and 2 feet 1 inch in girth. The same gentleman killed other two fish this week. The river has again fallen, and the water is clear. Sport is not likely to improve until we have a fresh flood. INNERLEITHEN.—Since the last flood on the 28th and 29th ult. anglers have had but poor sport. The shoals of fish that ascended after the flood were apparently not large, and their numbers were soon reduced by poachers. The river was frequently swept last week with nets, and cleeks have been used with success. On Saturday last fish were being sold in the town at 4id. per lb. On Tues day, which was observed as a general holiday in the dis trict, there were seen flpating down the river branches of trees and other rubbish, which it was supposed bad been thrown in for the purpose of "hauling" the fish—that is, to frighten them to the sides so that they might be within easy reach of the c/eOirs. SOme thorns were recently thrown into the river to prevent the working of the nets, but most of these have again been removed. Amid so much poaching the fair angler has no chance. We have before referred to the expediency of the winter police being sooner stationed on the river. During October, when the river is not under special supervision, a considerable num ber of fish is annually destroyed. THE CLYDE. --- Notwithstanding the prevailing dull muggy weather, the Clyde and its tributaries aro still affording good sport to anglers, particularly on the upper waters. On Thursday Mr. Alexander Bolton made a fine basket of 121 b. with the fly near Abbington. Among his take were two fine grayling, weighing 11 . 1 b. each. Another gentleman, on the same day, near Culter Water, succeeded in landing 81b. Trouting has been very good on the Calder (east) during the season ; and on the Avon the rod has been also plied with success of late. An unusual num ber of salmon have already been seen running the water at Blantyre. Liverpool Cotton Market.—This Day. Market excited in consequence of receipts of letters per Java.

TRIESTE, Oct. 12.—News from Calcutta to the 7th Sept. announces that in the Kingdom of Bir mah the rebels bad been beaten. The King, who had been made prisoner by them, has been delivered. continues.

The Paris correspon dent of the Morning Star gives the following curious ac count of the affair :—" The head was separated from the corpse during the first revolution, at which period the popu lace was seized with a mania for breaking open the tombs of the aristocracy. M. Fortoul was the first person to whom it occurred to restore the head to the re3nains of the once mighty Cardinal, but, in spite of all his exertions, he failed to do so. The present Emperor, with the help of M. Durny, the Minister of Public Instruction, has been more successful. Authentic documents proving its identity have been sent up with it. It appears that the head of the Cardinal was b agge d by a hosier of the Rue St. De n i s ito during the breaking open of his tomb. The mob got the co ffi n, and, trampling upon the embalmedcseorepes° in to cut n of it in . pieces.
