ONEi MARKET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE, Two O'CLOCK. At the Paris Bourse this morning, according to Reuter's telegram, the 3 per Cent. Rentes were 69 f. 30c. Inanimate. The Stock Exchange Markets have been very animated to-day, and the tendency has been in a d ownward direction. No important alteration has, however, occurred, except in the English depart ment, ... Consols having receded 89i 4 for money, and to 894 90 for the account. The New Three 11 Per Cents. and the Reduced Annuities are 881 ; Exchequer Bills, 2s. dis. to 2s. prem. ; India 4 per Cents., 97i ; do. Enfaced 5 per Cents., 1011 102 ; and Bank of England Stock, 2481. I( In the Foreign Stock Market prices show but little alteration. Turkish Consolides are 491 ; Mexican, 24! ; the New Loan, 23! ; Greek, 2 04 21; Spanish Passive, 2911 30 ; the Certificates, 6 14 i a ; Italian, 65 ; and the Confederate L oan , 7. American Securities are steady. United States Government 5-20 Bonds, 68 72 ; Erie Shares, 55 and Illinois, 791 Business in the Railway Share Market has been dull, and prices have shown less firmness. Great Western, Lancashire and Yorkshire, and Midland have each declined 10s. ; and Great Eastern, North Western, and South Eastern, each ss. In the Foreign and Colonial undertakings there has been little change of importance. Bank and Miscellaneous Shares have remained v ery quiet at about previous rates. London and County are dealt in at 77 78 ; London Joint-Stock at 50 ; Union of London at 54 ; National Dis count Company at 151 ; and Scottish Australian Investment at 126.

The discount demand b y the TW commercial public is rather active, but there is again shown a reluctance by the banks to take bills more than below the official minimum. Capital, however, is not scarce, and the desire to hold it in reserve, no doubt, arises from an anticipated large inquiry for paper matur ing at the end of the quarter. The directors of the British and American Steam Navigation Company have announced a call of £,2 10s• per share, to be paid on the 2d October. Advices have been received by the Imperial Ottoman Bank, dated Sept. 1, from their Bucharest branch, of the usual monthly payment by the Go vernment of £5,300 on account of interest, and I , £ 1 ,400 for the sinking fund of the Danubian P rincipalities Loan. From the manufacturing districts the accounts for the past week state that business generally has continued to proceed in a satisfactory manner. The operations in both cloths and yarns at Manchester have been on an extended scale, and prices in some instances have slightly advanced. The woollen trade of Leeds, Bradford, and Halifax 2 2 has conti nue d ac ti ve, part i cu l arly as regards the latter place, owing to an extensive demand for carpets for America and Canada. In the hosiery and lace departments of Leicester and Nottingham there has been more business transacted in both Plain and fancy goods, and the prospects of trade in the hardware districts of Birmingham, Sheffield, and Wolverhampton have shown a decided improve ment in most departments, owing to the demand for home requirements and for exportation to America and Canada.

MARKETS—This Day. MARK-LANE. nferior qualities exhibit a slight decline. Lambs' wool shows an advance of id to 2d per lb., the supply on offer being limited. For English wool, by private contract, there is a steady demand, and prices rule firm. The im ports into London last week were 1,424 bales from Sydney, 475 from Port Philip, and 3,330 from Algoa Bay. Current prices of English wool per lb. The country markets held on Saturday wore very dull for wheat. Old samples were about 2s. per quarter lower than in she previous week, whilst new qualities sold at irregular prices. The demand for spring corn ruled far from active, but very little change took place in the quota tions. The flour trade was dull, on easier terms. On the Continent, the wheat trade is quieter, and prices are lower ; but most descriptions of spring corn support previous rates. At New York the news of an advance here has caused considerable activity both in wheat and flour, and rather an important rise has taken place in the 47i I quotations. Very moderate supplies of home-grown produce were I received up to our markets, last week. The imports from abroad amounted to 27,735 quarters of wheat; 5,921 bar ley ; 22,042 oats ; 975 rye ; 226 beans ; 300 peas ; 6,589 linseed ; 7,936 oil seeds ; 407 sundry seeds ; 60 sacks and 3,561 barrels of flour. Fresh up to our market, to-day, the arrivals of home grown wheat were but moderate. The condition of the supply of new produce exhibited a slight improvement as compared with Monday last. Tho trade for all qualities, both old and new, was in a most inactive state, and the day's business was chiefly confined to transactions in old and the better samples of new wheat, at a decline in prices from this day se'nnight of ls. to 2s. per quarter. A portion of the supply, therefore, was left unsold at the close of the market. The market was moderately supplied with most descrip tions of foreign wheat. The demand generally was in a sluggish state, and a fall of is per quarter took place in the rates current on Monday last. Floating cargoes of wheat were in limited request at a decline in prices of is per quarter. Spring corn afloat, however, was tolerably firm in value. A very moderate supply of barley was on the stands, and the quality of the produce was mostly inferior. The trade was dull for all descriptions, yet prices were without change from this day se'nnight. There has been a better supply of oats on offer, the trade for which was dull, at barely late rates. Oats were in good supply. For most qualities there was a steady demand, at last Monday's currency. New grey peas were dull, and prices declined is. per quarter. The flour trade was in a sluggish state. Country marks gave way in price is. per 2801bs. CURRENCY PER IMP. MEASURE.

To-day's market was extensively supplied with foreign beasts and sheep. With the exception of some excellent Normandy beasts, the quality of the stock was very mid dling. The trade was slow on easier terms. The arrivals of English beasts fresh up exhibited a slight increase as compared with Monday last. The re ceipts from Ireland were somewhat extensive ; but the show of Scotch was confined to 40 head. Generally speaking, the beef trade was dull. The finest Scots, crosses, Lin colas, Devons, and Herefords, changed hands at mostly full prices ; but in the value of superior breeds, a decline of about 2d. per 81bs. took place. The top quotation was 5s 4d per 81bs. From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton shire, we received 1,700 head; from other parts of Eng land, GOO of various breeds ; from Scotland, 40 Scots and crosses ; and from Ireland, 400 oxen and heifers. Apart from the foreign supply, the arrivals of sheep were more extensive than ou Sunday last, the increase being chiefly confined to Scotch and Irish breeds, of which there was a considerable number in the pens. The quality of the stock was very middling. Good and fine breeds changed hands at prices barely equal to Monday last ; but inferior stock gave way in price 2d per 81bs. Prime Downs and half-breds sold at Gs 8d per 81bs. A few lambs were on offer, and the primest breeds rea. used 7s per 81bs. Calves were in but moderate supply. The trade was slow at about late rates—the top price being 5s 4dper 81bs. The pork trade was quiet at last Monday's currency.

MILITARY SUICIDE.—nout half-past 2 o'clock on Saturday a loud report of a musket was heard in the encampment of the Military Train on Woolwich-com mon, when it was discovered that a sergeant of the corps named William Benns, of No. 23 troop, had committed suicide. No reason can be assigned for the rash act other than that he had been somewhat addicted to intemperance and had been treated for delirium tremens. It likewise ap pears that he had been recently in charge of the camp re creation-room, and had been removed in medical charge. He was at that time put under stoppage for debt. Since his return from hospital his habits were remarkably ab stemious, and his friends entertained hopes of his thorough reformation. On Saturday morning, at a quarter past six o'clock, he proceeded on duty, and returned at 1 p.m., at which hour he dined with his brother sergeants at their mess, and was in good health and spirits. After dinner he took a single glass of porter at the canteen, and on his re turn to barracks he found Mrs. Driscoll, the wife of one of the privates, there, who had brought home the men's wash ing, and offered to assist her in allotting each man's to its proper place on the beds. This she declined, stating that he always misled her. He then disappeared unnoticed into a small apartment at the end of the room called the bath room, loaded one of the men's ca r bi ne s, and shot himself through the head by pointing the muzzle in his mouth.. Death was instantaneous. Officers and men rushed to the spot on hearing the report, but assistance was of no avail. The unfortunate man bore a good character in the regiment. He joined the Military Train in 1857 as a volunteer from the 10th Hussars, and was nearly 22 years in the army.H e was unmarried. COBDEN'S LAST WORDS IN PARLIAMENT. — The last words of this remarkable speech, and the last words uttered by Cobden in the Rouse of Commons, were these. They are a sacred legacy left to the nation he loved so well :—" I know of nothing so calculated some day to produce a democratic revolution, as for the proud and com bative people of this country to find themselves in this vital matter of their defence sacrificed through the mis management and neglect of the class to whom, with so much liberality, they have confided the care and future destinies of the country. You have brought this upon yourselves by undertaking to be producers and manufac turers. I advise you in future to place yourselves entirely in dependence upon the private manufacturing resources of the country. If you want gunpowder, artillery, small arms, or the hulls of ships of war, let it be known that you depend upon the private enterprise of the country, and you will get them. At all events, you will absolve yourselves from the responsibility of undertaking to do things which you are not competent to do, and you will be entitled to say to the British people, Our fortunes as a Government and nation are indissolubly united, and we will rise or fall, flourish or fade together, according to the energy, enter prise, S and ability of the great body of the manufacturing and industrious community.' " Speaking with strict ac curacy, these were not absolutely Cobden's last words in the house; for, subsequently, in the same debate, he curiously enough interrupted a speaker with the characteristic ejacu lation, "It is ridiculous to compare times of peace and War."—.3PGilchri.ses Life of Cobden. MORISON'S PILLS OF THE BRITISH COLLEGE OF HEALTH, EUSTON - ROAD, LONDON.—AII persons should know that the above medicine can be sent by post on re ceipt of 30 postage stamps for two boxes, Nos. 1 and 2, 131 rd, size —[Advertisement.[ ; nagement of friendly societies, the principle on which they are founded is very popular, and the number . of the institutions themselves appears to be increas • ing. During the past year the Registrar received only 120 notices of the dissolution of societies, 65 of which have been gazetted as dissolved ; while he has certified the rules of 1,056. A still larger number have made alterations in their rules which the Re gistrar has approved. Thus cases of organisation are far in excess of those dissolution—an encouraging fact, as it indicates the increase of foresight and pro vident habits. The Registrar has still to lament another•defect in the management of friendly societies, though he hopes the evil is decreasing, and is able to show that the working classes themselves are becoming aware of the injurious consequences of a very old practice. It is that of holding the business meetings of these clubs at a publichouse, with the accompanying obli gation of drinking for " the gqpd" of the establish ment. The score run up is the landlord's rent, and very dearly is the occupation of his room for an evening paid for on these terms. Unfortunately, it is often very difficult to obtain the use of a room on other conditions. On this subject, and that of " an niversaries, "Mr. Tidd Pratt thus remarks The Registrar still continues to receive complaints by and on behalf of members of old-established societies with respect to the compulsory payments they are required to make monthly and annually for beer and the anniver sary meetings. The place of meeting, as stated on a former oc casion, should, if poasible, be at some public institution or school-room, and if that cannot be obtained, and there is no other place except an inn or a publicho use, a certain fixed payment should be made for the hire of the room, lights, and fire, with a stipulation that no beer, &c., should be brought into the room until all business is concluded, when each member shall pay for any refreshment he may require. When an anniversary or annual feast is held, the contribu tion thereto and attendance thereat shall be voluntary, though there seems no legal objection to a rule that every member who lives within a given distance should have a ticket sent him, which, if not returned at a certain time, say a week before the day of the feast, he should be re quired to pay for; but a better plan appears• to be for the stewards to keep a book in which each member who in tends to dine shall enter his name, and pay a monthly con tribution for that purpose. This regulation of course could not be incorporated as a rule, nor would the money sub scribed form any part of the funds of the society. As the compulsory payments for beer; &c., are of no benefit to the members, but `for the good of the house,' and as no such payments are inserted in any rules certified under the 18th and 19th Vic., cap. 63, it appears desirable in future legis lation to provide that no such payments "shall be made, any laws, rules, or regulations of any friendly or benefi society to the contrary notwithstanding.' In reports o, previous years the Registrar has had to mention instances of large expenditure for drinking purposes, and the evils arising frOm clubs being held at publichouses, on which subject there has from time to time been considerable dis- cussion in the press and other periodicals; and although the mischief is not now carried on to the extent it used to be a quarter of a century ago, yet the evils now existing are sufficient to cause a desire for a reform in this matter." As a proof that a feeling against this forced ex penditure is growing up, the Registrar quotes a letter on the subject from the organ of the Society of Fores- tern, in which the effect of the practice in encourag• ing intemperate habits is fully illustrated. Crime in France. The Court of Assizes of the Bas-Rhin tried, tho day before yesterday, a man named Steiner, aged 25, on charges . . . of attempt to murder and robbery committed on the 12th May last near Epfig, on the person of a carrier named Joseph. On the above-mentioned Joseph arrived at Itte willer (Bas-Rhin), on his way to Schlestadt, with a load of poles, which he purposed selling to the hop-growers of that neighbourhood. Not knowing the road, ho inquired his way at a public-house, and the prisoner immediately said that he was going to the place, and would not only accom pany him but introduce him to several persons who would purchase his merchandise. They accordingly started to gether and had travelled about a league when the prisoner, who was walking behind Joseph, struck him on the head with a large stone and knocked him down. He redoubled his blows till ho thought the man was dead, then stole from his person a knife and a purse containing 6Ofr., and made off. Joseph was, h ow ever, only stunned, and, hav ing recovered his senses, ho with difficulty got to th e nearest village and gave information which led to the prisoner's arrest on the following day. The evidence of Joseph and other witnessos being conclusive against the prisoner, the jury found him guilty, but with extenuating circumstances, and the Court sentenced him to hard labour for life. — The Military Tribunal of Paris has just tried the Turco, named Ali-bel-Abbes, of the 2d Regiment of Algerian Sharpshooters, who, on 25th June last, killed one of his comrades named Abdel-Kader-ben-Taar in the Garden of the Tuileries. The circumstances of the case, which were given in the journals at the time, are briefly and clearly explained in the prisoner's confession, made on the following day to Captain de Lignieres, of his regiment, as follows:—" Last evening I went alone to the Gardens of the Tuileries. I there met two women, and was going to speak to them, when Abdel-Kader-ben-Taar accosted me. The woman asked me why I was nearly white while he was black, and I replied that in Africa there were black fathers and white mothers. A sharpshooter, who, in passing, had heard what we said, remarked to the women, as he pointed at Abdel-Kader, that in our country negroes were bought and sold for money. Abdel- Kader, incensed at this remark, vented his anger on me : he struck me repeatedly, till I fell, and while under his feet I drew my bayonet and struck him as he stooped over me." When asked by the President whether he intended to kill his comrade, the prisoner re plied that he was furious at having been insulted and thrown down in the presence of women, and that he thought only of avenging the outrage. lie deeply re gretted what he had done, as he had never had any quarrel with Abdel Kader, and did not even know him. After hearing a number of witnesses and counsel for the prisoner, the Tribunal declared him guilty of wilfully wounding, but without intent to kill, and condemned him to fi v e years' imprisonment. The Tribunal of Correctional Police yesterday tried a man named 011ivier, aged 34, on a charge of having in the evening of the 12th Aug. last snatched a porte-monnaie, containing several hundred francs, from the hand of a lady at the moment she was getting into her car riage, on the Boulevard des Italiens. The thief was pur sued and taken a few yards from the spot, but not before he bad thrown away the porte-monnaie, which was, how ever, recovered and restored to its owner, who, when the prisoner was brought, into her presence, clearly identified him. In his defence the prisoner asserted that he was inno cent, that he had seen the porte-monnaie snatched from the lady's hand, and was running in pursuit of the real offender, when he was arrested and charged with the theft. Abundant evidence was however produced to prove the falsehood of this statement, and the tribunal accordingly condemned him to six months' imprisonment. Mr. Tidd Pratt, the Registrar of Friendly Socie ties in England, has just made the Report of the proceedings of his office for the year 1864, or rather that report has been printed by order of the House of Commons since the month of July, and is now accessible to that large part of the community directly interested in the condition of these Unions. Nor is the report without interest to thousands not immediately connected with the Societies, but to whom the official returns present reliable data for studying the condition of many classes among whom such inquiries by private persons, however zealously pursued, are beset with difficulties. The law itself, carried into effect by a public officer, is only partially successful in obtaining information as to these bodies. Aknowledge of the exact state of the funds and the number of members of each society, published every year, would be a great protection to the working classes themselves, and a consider able check on local abuses. But the wholesome publicity directed by recent legislation is not so readily or generally given by the managers of these Societies as it ought to be. The present annual report closes with a complaint of the registrar of the neglect with which the official forms sent to be filled up by the trustees and officers of the Societies are treated. Last year 22,511 blank forms were sent out by the registrar, but only 10,398, considerably less than half, were returned, filled up with the details the law requires for pub lication. The Act of Parliament is certainly a new one, and its object may not yet be clearly understood. Mr. Tidd Pratt ascribes the gross neglect of a duty rendered as easy to perform as it possibly can be to the fact that "it generally happens" the omission to make the return "is owing to the accounts not having been kept or audited." If this is really the case in any large proportion of 10,000 or 11,000 societies, the state ment ought to excite the attention of the members of those bodies without loss of time. But the more hopeful view of the present inattention to the require ments of the law is that the meaning of the act is not yet understood, and this defect is one that time and better knowledge will remove. The law would protect many thousands against fraud if they would' I take advantage of it, which at present they do not.

UNPROVOKED AND BRUTAL ASSAULT.—CharIes Downs, a tailor, was charged before Mr. Knox with assaulting Mr. John Willis, foreman to Mr. Bywater, carpenter and builder, of Carnaby-street, Regent's-street. The complainant, whose head was enveloped in ban dages, said that on Saturday night while talking to Mr. Marsh, a carpenter, residing in Silver-street, Golden square, Mr. Marsh at the time sitting in a chair at his door, the prisoner and another young man came against him and made use of most insulting language towards him, and then assaulted him, knocked him down, and severely injuring his head, and also bruising him about the chest and body. He became insensible and was obliged to have medical attendance, and still felt a great deal of pain in his head. In answer to questions put by Mr. Knox, the complainant said the prisoner threatened him before assaulting him. Mr. Marsh, carpenter, of Silver-street, who gave his evidence seated, being paralysed, said that while sitting at his door the prisoner and another man came up and grossly insulted the complainant, and said they would do for him; the prisoner then struck the complainant three times in the mouth. The prisoner and his companion then closed on the complainant, threw him down, and he became in sensible. The prisoner said the complainant, in the first instance pushed against him. Mr. Marsh said that was not true, and that the prisoner lifted up the complainant's head while ho was on the ground and bumped the back part of it three or four times on the pavement, and afterwards made off with his com panion, he (Mr. Marsh) not being able to render the com plainant any assistance owing to being paralysed. Police-constable Grinbam, 132 0, said that on stopping the prisoner, who was running pursued by several persons, in John-street, Golden-square, he said it was a bad job, and that he could not help it. Mr. Knox asked the constable whether the prisoner was sober at the time, and the constable said he had been drink ing but was not drunk. Mr. Knox remanded the prisoner, and ordered a warran . :o be issued against his companion. 'WESTMINSTER. THE TABLES TURNED.—Anna Langharn, a woman about 35 years of age, was charged with violently assaulting and wounding John Flynn, a labourer. The prosecutor said that he lodged with his wife in the house of the prisoner. On Friday there was a few words between them at the gate, and they were repeated the next morning. On Saturday night, prosecutor found his wife quarrelling with the defendant, and took her away. Sub sequently, as he was coming in, she attacked him with a gallon can, and wounded him on the head, at the same time, throwing water over him. Tho accused said that the prosecutor entertained ill feel ing against her because she had distrained upon him for arrears of rent. She was the only support of an aged, bed ridden mother, who was constantly being placed in fear by the frightful threats that he would burn the old woman in her bed. She remonstrated with him upon his violence when he seized her by the hair of the head, dragged her' about the place, and shamefully ill-used her. She escaped him, and took the water 2 oan in her own defence. After that the complainant hurled a basin at her, and cut her. Mr. Arnold asked prosecutor if ho had any witness. Flynn replied that ho had nol iu attendance. Mr. Arnold inquired whether there were any for the defence ? Two were immediately produced, respectable persons, who clearly proved that complainant used disgraceful threats, and dragged the defendant about with great vio lence. It was shown that there were no marke of violence upon him until after his serious ill-treatment of the woman. Mr. Arnold said he should adjourn this case and grant the defendant process against the complainant for the ill treatment of which she complained. She must attend on a future day, on her own rocognisances, and then any further evidence might be produced. SOUTHWARK. INDUSTRIOUS PIC RPOCRETS.—Robert Turner and Tho mas Leack, two boys, between 14 and 15, were charged before Mr. Woolrych with picking pockets. From the evidence it appeared that a police constable who was on duty perceived the two boys together in the Borough, last Saturday evening, and suspecting that they were young thieves, he watched them. He saw them pick several gentlemen's pockets of their handkerchiefs, and took them into custody. Both prisoners denied the charge, and were committed to prison for one month each. A MUSICAL MENDICANT.—Denis Burke, whose accent proclaimed him a native of the " Emerald Isle," was charged with beggin g . Policeman L5B said that about hall-past 8 o'clock on Saturday eveni ng h e saw the prisoner in the Lower Marsh, Lambeth. He w as s i nging, and received money from dif ferent persons. On being desired to move on he went about 15 yards further, but in doing so occupied about half-an-hour, and during that time continued his vocal performance. He took him into custody, and 2e. 7d. was found on his person. The Prisoner —I was only singing, and never knew that singing in the open streets was begging. Mr. Woolrych—lf is begging accordi ng to law. you get money by sin g i ng o p en l y i t . The Prisoner expressed some surprise at this decision of the worthy magistrate, and was dismissed with a caution not to repeat the offence. THAMES. THE GROOM AND HIS MASTER.—George Smith, a groom in the service of Mr. Poole, a gentleman residing in the Mile-end-road, was brought before Mr. Paget charged with assaulting and wounding his master. The prosecutor had occasion to find fault with the pri soner for not properly cleaning out his stables. Some words and a scuffle ensued between them, and the prisoner threatened to hit Mr. Poole with a pitchfork. Mr. Poole immediately took the pitchfork from the groom's hand and told him to leave the premises. The prisoner directly struck his master a violent blow on the mouth and wounded him. Dr. Ansell, who dressed the wound on the complainant's face, said it was 3 in. in length and a third of an inch in depth. The prisoner admitted striking his master, and said the wound was inflicted with the nail of his thumb. Dr. Ansell, who is a gentleman of great experince in his profession, and is Medical Officer to the Poplar Board of Works, said he would take upon himself decidedly to say tho wound was inflicted with a sharp instrument. It was a clean cut. The thumb nail could not have inflicted such a wound. Mr. Paget belived the prisoner had used a k n if e.

He then pours a neutral liquid of his own composition ipta•the ear, and a few minutes after the spectators are surprised to find that the patient can hear. From that moment the cure commences, and is almost always crowned with success. sd s d Fleeces—South Down hogets 1 81. 1 9 Half-bred do 2 0 2 1 Kent fleeces South Down owes and wothers 1 81 1 91 Leicester do Sorts—Clothing Combing SEEDS.

Mr. Mullins said the prisoner was a cashier in the Bank of London, and from circumstances that had transpired an examination of his books and papers had been made, and a fraud amounting to £3,500 had been dis covered His books showed a greater amount of money in hand than was really the fact, and on the last occasion that he made up his cash and posted his book, he represented that he had £3,000 in hand,when on examination it was discovered he had but £1,300. The prisoner made it appear that £1,600 was to be transferred from Mr. Martin's deposit to his drawing account, and a debit note for that amount was passed through his book, and there ought to have been a credit note made out, by the prisoner crediting his drawing ac count with the £1,600, but no such note was passed through the bank, as it was found in his desk. He was then taken into custody. The prisoner had made certain fictitious entries in the names of two of the depositors in the Bank of the names of Martin and Mortimer, and thus he rn had been able to conceal his fraud. The prisoner received gold for three Bank of England notes, one for £l,OOO, one for £5OO, and one for £lOO from one of his fellow-clerks. The second robbery of £1,900 had been discovered since the prisoner had been in cus tody. None of the cash has been recovered. Mr. Martin, 16, John-street, Crutched-frairs, said I have a deposit and current account in the Bank of London. On the Bth of November I had £2,800 on deposit there. I did not give the prisoner any directions as to having £1,600, transferred from deposit to my current account. I did not know of any such transaction having taken place until after the prisoner was in custody. The sum of £1,600 has not been transferred. On the Bth of November I did not draw a cheque on the Bank of London for £6OO. I did not receive the bank notes for £5OO and £lOO, of which the particulars have been stated. Mr. Mash—l am in the employ of Mr. Mortimer. I have the care of his cash account, and I am in a position to know what cheques he drew on the Bth of November. Mr. Mortimer did not draw a cheque on the Bank of London that day for £l,OOO or £1,600. I did not receive the bank notes spoken to during the examination from the prisoner. Mr. W. F. White—l am a clerk in the Bank of London. It is my duty to enter particulars of notes of the Bank of England received at the Bank of London during each day. I find in the proper place for bank notes received an entry for £1,600 in bank notes received for Mr. Taylor. Those notes are the same as those spoken of and produced by Mr Another clerk in the Bank of London, who had charge of the deposit ledger, said—ln 1865 I debited Mr. Richard Martin's account for £1,600, the initials are in the pri soner's handwriting. We have no more than one depositor of the name of Richard Martin. Mr. Mullins said that was all the evidence he had agains the prisoner. The Lord Mayor then cautioned the prisoner, and asked him what he had to say in answer to the charge. He merely replied—l leave the matter in the hands of my solicitor. The Lord Mayor fully committed him for trial. The Case of Mr. Tommey, TO THE EDITOR OF TILE SUN.

SPORTING NO TES. DONCASTER RACES. The above meeting will commence to-morrow. There are thirty races to be decided.. The Great Yorkshire Handicap has a very fair acceptance. The field will be made up from the following :—Planet, 4 yrs, Bst 121 b ; Ackworth, 4 yrs, Bst 71b ; Hippolyta, 4 yrs, Bst 51b ; Gra titude, 5 yrs, Bst 41b ; Dalby, 4 yrs, Bst 21b ; Claremont, 4 yrs, Bst llb Dunkeld, 5 yrs, 7st 121 b ; Nightwatch, 3 yrs, 7st 31b ; Nemo, 4 yrs, 7st 21b ; Verdant, 3 yrs, 6st 101 b; Brindisi, 4 yrs, Est. 91b; Swordsman, 3 yrs, Est 81b.; La Fortune, 3 yrs, Est 71b ; Holstein, 3 yrs, sst 121 b. Immediately the weights appeared Claremont was selected as the favourite from the close run he made with Verdant in the Ebor Handicap. He has now 51b the best of the weights with the latter, and, from the improvement the horse has made since, he is bound to finish in the front rank, if he does not turnout the actual winner. Ackworth, from his easy victory over Success and Pearl Diver, must have a great chance, but he had better be left alone at present, as he has lately become very fishy in the market, otherwise he would have been one of my selections. Hippolyta ran well last year, has 21b less to carry than Ackworth, and was always considered to be bettor than Breeze at laiel weights. The most dangerous of the light division are Brindisi, Swordsman, and Holstein. Swordsman will be ridden by J. Grimshaw, and if this is his journey in preference to tie Cesarewitch and Cambridgeshire he will be difficult to dispose of. Holstein has now superseded his stable companion Brindisi in the market, but I would rather trust the latter. The winner, however, will be either CLAREMONT or HIPPOLYTA. The Glasgow Stakes Chibisa or Lord of the Vale will win ; and the Filly Stakes Gretna will have no difficulty in securing. Queen of Trumps or Liddington will win the Revival Plate. Primate and Lord Lyon are the most trustworthy pair in the Champagne Stakes, giving a slight preference to the former. The great race of the meeting is the St. Leger, which comes off on Wednesday. The field will be very limited, in conse quence of the immense support awarded to Gladiateur, the winner of the Two Thousand and Derby. A strong body of the most noteworthy members of the Pugilistic Associa tion, headed by the celebrated Jerry Noon, have been en gaged as a guard to protect the French horse from any hostile demonstration that may be made at the weighing room. The most of those quoted under are likely to face the starter : HORSE. TRAINER. JOCKEY. Gladiateur T. Jennings H. Grimshaw Regalia C. Peck J. Osborne Kate Hampton C. Peck Wheatley Klarinska J. Scott J. Adams Arid J. Scott T. Ashman Reginolla J. Scott T. French The Duke J. Day G. Fordham Kangaroo J. Day J. Grimshaw Breadlbane W. Goater Custance Broomielaw W. Goater J.

C ovey : l e l beaten every h orse i n the race, W Goater J. at co G:o wit e h r the exception of Klarinska and The Duke. His easy victory in the Derby, after being shut in at Tattenham Corner, where he lost several lengths, stamps him as the best three yr-old of his year. Klarinska, and Regalia are about one and the same, as the former won the Yorkshire Oaks and Great Yorkshire Stakes quite as easily as Regalia won the Oaks. Peeress, although she defeated Klarinska at Good wood, must succumb to the latter on the present occa sion. Breadalbane may run a better horse than he did in the Derby, as it is impossible to tell how good. he may be, especially considering the parti es who had the management of him. Witness the out-and-in running of Blink Bonny in the One Thousand Guineas in 1857, who belonged to the same division, and was backed for pounds shillings and pence by the public, but in the race run nowhere, which was won by Imperieuse. Three or four weeks afterwards Blink Bonny carried off the Derby, and on the Friday following won the Oaks, beat ing Imperieuse by nearly a quarter of a mile. Then came the Leger, for which Blink Bonny was made a hot favou rite, but she had to lower her colours to Imperieuse. They may have been fair run races, but " Miles's Boy" is very a pt to think otherwise. It is needless to discuss the merits of the other horses engaged, as there really seems only four horses in the race, viz., Gladiateur, Klarinska, Regalia, and Breadalbane.

Lincoln Autumn Liverpool Autumn Shrewsbury THE APPOINTMENT OF CAPTAIN SIR F. LEOPOLD MCLINTOCK TO BE A COMMODORE OF THE 2D Class AT JAMAICA, in succession to the late Commodpre Peter Crn croft, is one which cannot fail to give satisfaction to the service. Sir Leopold has completed his 34th year in the navy, having entered it in 1831. He passed his examina tionOt we e ea for lieutenant in 1838, but, being without wasthoutpa advanced l c i ad in terest, he was not promoted until 1845. to the rank of commander in 185 1 , and w as p romoted to be a captain in 1854, owing to his gre at merits, and i n defe rreecenc,ent a to ethhearpauctbalric tow il re l. qui S r i e r a L n e y op fr o a l s d h 's career is nof too notice, n bu not refrain from alluding once more to the happy knack which ho possesses in rendering his officers and men com fortable. The Aurora, while under his command, has been an example which may be well followed. She has been always contented and well disciplined—the model of a British man-of-war. We can say nothing higher in praise of her captain and her crew.—Army and Navy Ga zette, INGENIOUS DEVICE.—A gentleman near Ware ham, in Dorset, who has a small field in which there are crops of carrots and mangold wurzel with which bares and rabbits have been making free, has put a dog's house in the field for the accommodation of a small puppy. The puppy is loose by day, and be barks all night long. This effectually scares away the hares and rabbits. SHOWING HIS TEETH !—lt is rumoured that a private examination of Gladiateur's mouth is likely to be made before the " St. Leger," in order to set at rest the doubts raised by the opponents of the horse as to his exact age. STRANGE TASTE. —A grand landscape in mosaic has been made by a clerk in the French War-office. It is composed entirely of insects—of beetles alone there are more than 45,000 —of nearly 4,000 different species, and took four years in making. The painful piece of work forms one of the chief attractions of the exhibition of insects at the Palais do rlndustrie.
