The traffic receipts of the Metropolitan Extension Railways of the London, Chatham, and Dover Com pany this week show an increase of £925 over the corresponding week of last year. During the last few days there has not been much animation in the Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets. Sugars have been in only limited request, but prices remain firm. For coffee there has been a fair demand at late prices, while tea has remained inactive. Rice, fruit, and saltpetre have been neglected, while in tallow the dealings have been to a moderate extent, without any material change in quotations for either present or forward delivery. Two o'CLocx At the Paris Bourse this morning, according to Itcuter's telegram, the 3 per Cent. Rentes were 66f. 70c.

Great Western, and Lanca shire and Yorkshire have each declined 55., and Bristol and Exter 155., while North Eastern (Ber wick) have advanced ss. The Foreign and Colonial lines have remained Without any material change to report in values. Bank and Miscellaneous shares remain dull. Alliance, however, have improved to 30i a ; Lou don.

TRIESTE, June 26. The Triester Zeitung of to-day says :—The Italian steamer Principe Tommaso, and the Austrian steamer Marco Polo are now in the Theresa lazaretto. Their passengers (152 in number) are lodged in the lazarette quarters, as well as circum stances permit. All are perfectlj' healthy, and notwithstanding the great overcrowding in both vessels—the Italian steamer having brought 173 passengers to Ancona, while the Marco Polo was crammed with 105—not a single case of serious illness occurred during the voyage. All contrary reports are stupid or malicious inventions. Several travellers, however, concur in admitting that cholera prevails at Alexandria to a great degree, and that the majority of the cases have a fatal issue, but the causes of this are purely local, and mainly attributable to the wretched sanitary con dition of the town. Above 700 carcases of cattle are said to be lying on the Nile canal alone, and the water from this source supplies the inhabitants. A letter from Alexandria on the 19th inst. says : The measures taken by the Government have proved entirely useless to meet the extent of the evil, the first case of which was observed here on the 10th or 11th ult. The disease prevailed first in the north-west suburbs near the railway station, which are inhabited by some 20,000 Arabs, Greeks, and Maltese, all belonging to the lowest class. It is remarkable that the epidemic has hitherto only attacked the port of Alexandria, while hot and populous Cairo, together with the internal portion of the country, has remained entirely free. During the first few days 4.5 to 8 persons died daily, then the deaths rose to 30.39, and on the 17th 61 fatal cases were reported.' " An official telegram from Alexandria, dated to-day (26th), estimates the number of deaths hitherto at 1,034, the great majority of which be long to the native population. On the 25th 183 persons died out of a total population of 160,000. Large numbers of inhabitants were leaving the town. Arrangements have been made here that per sons coming from Alexandria are to be subjected to a week's quarantine, reckoned from the day of arrival. Ships are to be ventilated and fumigated; clothes, furniture, and bedding thoroughly cleaned ; and goods and letters exposed to the treatment cus tomary in Italian ports." The same paper publishes a report from Alexan dria as to the cholera in Mecca, an imperfect account of which has previously appeared. It says :—" The Mussulman festivals of the Kurban-Bairan took place during the first 20 days of May, when 600,000 to 700,000 pilgrims annually assemble in Mecca and upon Mount Ararat, to celebrate their pilgrimage with the usual religious ceremonies. The mode of life, utterly opposed to all rules of dietetic prudence, pursued by these crowded masses for 10 to 15 days at the holy places, yearly entails a number of diseases to which many are sacrificed. This year the cholera, or as the Government prefers to call it, cholonna—•was added to the customary pests, and is said to have carried off 20,000 people at Mecca and upon Gebel Ararat within the short space of two months. Private accounts place the loss of pilgrim life at 100,000, an estimate obviously ex aggerated, as these do not even include the deaths by cholera. We, in Alexandria, have no more exact details of this terrible drama, which made no extraordinary impression upon the pilgrims them selves, who, in their religious fanaticism, believe every one certain of Paradise who dies during pil grimage. The country being at all times inaccessible to European medical men, the meagre reports we have are derived from a few Egyptian military surgeons, ordered by the Government to accompany the pilgrims from Egypt.

CHARGE OF THREATENING A GENTLEMAN.-ThOTHIS Daniel, a greengrocer, living in Lancashire-court, New Bond-street, was charged before Mr. Knox with being drunk and using threatening language towards Mr. George Scurr, gentleman, of No. 33, Camden-road. Mr. Scurr said that on getting out of a cab in Oxford street, the previous afternoon, the defendant, who came out of a public house, and had evidently been drinking, said he would smash his - head if he did not give him some money. He told the defendant that he did not know him, and had never seen him before, and the defendant then raised a stick as if to strike him: He then went for a con stable, the defendant continuing to follow him, and the constable heard what the defendant said. Police-constable 55 D said the defendant ran away on seeing the complainant speaking to him. He went after the defendant, who said that comphiinant owed him £l9, and that he would smash his head if he did not pay him. The defendant said he had been drinking, and ho was sorry for what had occurred. Mr. Scurr said as the, defendant was not sober ai the time he did not wish to have him punished. All he re quired was protection. Mr. Knox said he would take the defendant's own recog nisance to be of good behaviour. THAMES. FEARFUL DOINGS.—A woman named Mary Ann Mulcahy, about 40 years of age, was brought before Mr. Partridge, charged with assaulting and wounding her husband, Michael Mulcahy, who described himself as "an independent gentleman living on his Property." The parties are natives of Ireland, and it was stated by Police-sergeant Dillon, 19 K, that they had given much trouble, and had been in the habit of spending large sums of money which they acquired by the possession of houses of a questionable character in Victoria-place, Shadwell, where gross outrages and robberies had been committed. The prisoner was jealous of her husband, and had assaulted him repeatedly. She had also beaten several women, and had been fined and imprisoned on sum mary convictions, and also convicted at the Mid dlesex Sessions. She had also severely wounded a woman, and compromised the matter by paying her a large sum of money. The complainant was generally a quiet man, but he had been committed with his wife for seven days for riotous and disorderly conduct. Last night his wife came home drunk and abused him. She threw a pail of water over him while he was in bed, and he struck her. She went out, and returned in a quarter of an hour armed with a brass candlestick, and struck him a tremen dous blow on the head with it, inflicting a deep and dan gerous wound. She then ran away. He went to a surgeon and his wound was dressed. His wife afterwards met him in the street, and made an attempt to strangle him with a black silk neckerchief, in which she would have succeeded if the police had not interfered and secured her. Mr. Partridge—How long has her bad conduct lasted ? Malcahy—Only 20 years, sir; ever since we have been married. The prisoner—He knocks me about, but don't mark my face. lam black and blue all over my body. He kicks me and ill-uses me daily. The complainant—lt is no such thing. She fights with everybody, and is the terror of the district. Mr. Partridge ordered the prisoner to find bail to keep the peace for 12 months, and asked the husband if he would become surety for his wife. (Laughter.) The husband—No, certainly not. I shall have peace now. WESTMINSTER. DISGRACEFUL CONDUCT AT A TAVERN.—WaIter Robert son and Walter Leader, respectably dressed men, were charged with the following disgraceful conduct. Mary Ann Boyd, barmaid, at the Cadogan Hotel, Sloane street, said that at seven last evening the defendants came to the bar and conducted themselves very offensively. They accosted several persons who came in, asking them to treat them to drink, and they then called for tobacco. He informed them that they could not, have tobacco there, and desired them to leave the house, instead of which they intruded themselves into another compartment filled with gentlemen, and grossly insulted them. The barman was called to expel them, when they assaulted him and Leader, and wilfully broke a pane of plate glass, valued at a 12s. The police were at length procured, and they were given into custody, but not until they had caused a great obstruction in the business. John Clarke, cellarman, said that he put the defendants out four times. He expostulated with them, and endea voured to'get rid of them quietly, but he no sooner got rid of them at one door than they entered at another. Both defendants struck him, and made his nose bleed. Defendants, in general terms, denied the charges against them, and Leader complained that he had been struck, One of the gentlemen who had been annoyed, said that Leader, when he came to them, wanted to fight, and struck a gentleman, who returned it with interest. Defendant Robertson was fined 155., or seven days ; Leader, 205., and £2 12s. damage or one month. MARKE TS-=-This Day. MARK-LANE.

The much-wanted rain rather damped the first day of Stockbridge races, however beneficial it was in other re spects. There was a very close thing in the Andover Stakes between Beadle and Columbia, Mr. W. BeviNe just _ _ managing to land the former by a head. The Stockbridge Cup promised to be an interesting race froin the presence of •ne or two horses with a fine turn of speed. They made the Tartar the favourite, but he, in company with' Birch Broom, showed temper at the poSt and ran unkindly throughout. The struggle was between Attache,-Attritc lion, and Scarborough, who finished a fine race with only necks between them, Attach 6 having a little the best of it from the Stand, and winning rather cleverly. The 6th Biennial brought out a fair field ; among them Siberia, Sydmonton, and Farewell, the latter the favourite at start ing, though Sydmonton had the call at the opening. It was a very hollow affair, Sydmonton taking the lead at a clipping pace, and maintaining it to the end. Farewell soon found the ground did not suit him, and the wiener had all his horses in trouble before reaching the enclosure. The other racing calls for no particular notice. A great damp was flung over the' proceedings by the rain, and the racing seemed to go off flatly. Tho Andover Stakes (handicap) of 5 sovs each, with 100 added ; gentlemen riders. Old mile ; 12 subs.

Betting•-7 to 4 agst Durham, 2to 1 agst Beadle, and 7 to 1 agst Overstone. Columbia jumped away with a clear lead of Beadle, in whose rear followed the favourite, Lord Douglas, and Idle Girl, Overstone being last. They ran in these positions until they entered the dip, where Columbia in company with B eadle, slipped their horses and finished the race home, the former winning after a slashing finish by a head. Overstone, who ran past his horses at the enclosure, was a bad third. The others were pulled up some lengths from the chair close together. The Stockbridge Cup, value 300 sovs, by subscription of 10 says each, the surplus (if any) to be divided between the second and third horses, for 2-yr-olds and upwards, weight for age-; winners extra, with maiden allowances ; the owner of the second horse to save his stake.

At the third attempt they left the post in close company, but on reaching the foot of the hill Copenhagen rushed to the front for the purpose of making a pace, and came on several lengths in advance of Attache on the left and Scar borough on the right ; to these succeeded in the centre of the course Attraction and Catalogue, side by side, and in their rear came The Tartar and Ackworth. Half way into he bottom Copenhagen gave way, and the lead was then left with Scarborough, who carried it on to half distance, when he was joined by Attaché. Wide on the left of At teaction and Catalogue, the four as they reached the en closure closed up and ran locked together to the stand,when by a neck ; a similar distance separated the second and third ; Catalogue was fourth, close up ; the Tartar fifth, Ackworth sixth, Copenhagen seventh, and Birch Broom, who was extremely fractious at the post, last, beaten off a long way.

The last named held a slight lead of Filbert and Imo gene, who were followed by the favourite and Lady Flo rence into the dip, where the leader was beaten, and -the running was then taken up by Filbert, who held a clear lead to half-way in the rails, when he was joined by Imogene and Lady Egidia on their right. From this point the three ran nearly abreast to the stand, when Imo gene quitted her horses and won easily by three-quarters of a length. There were three lengths between the second and third.

Siberia was the first away at the second attempt, but was almost immediately after headed by Sydmonton, who made play at a strong pace, Siberia going on second, and close in her rear were Audax and his stable companion Swift, a length only separating them from Gomera, Tilt, and Fare well, who ran nearly abreast, the rear being brought up by the Sortie colt, Attach 6, and Nukuheva. As they skirted the kill side opposite the stand, the leader somewhat im proved his position, and as they made the turn for the bushes hill Siberia gave way to Gomera, who followed Lord Portsmouth's colt, Audax still lying third, Siberia fourth, and Farewell fifth on their left, and as they reached its brow Attach 6 was seen on the inside, having gradually made up his lee way. On reaching the rails Gomera and Siberia were out of it, followed in a few strides further by Farewell, leaving the issue with Sydmonton, Audax, and Attach 6 ; the two latter, however, never had a chance of reaching the leader, who landed the popular colours of his noble owner in a canter by three lengths, Audax de feated Atta,chd by a length for second, Siberia fourth, Swift fifth, Farewell sixth, who headed a lot of pulling up horses, the last of whom were Nukuheva, Tilt, and Grace Darling, the latter walking in the absolute last.

Warwickshire and Leam ington Hunt HIGHLAND AND AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY OF SCOT LAND.—The half-yearly meeting was held at Edinburgh. on Wednesday, the Earl of Rosslyn presiding. 120 new members were ballotted for and admitted. The secretary reported that for the general show to be held at Inverness on the first week in August there were 325 head of cattle, 125 horses, 850 head of sheep, 38 swine, 288 poultry, and 700 implements entered. The exhibition of stock would be larger than at any of the society's shows since 1859. The show for 1866 would be held at Glasgow, and of 1867 at Aberdeen. The Moniteur publishes a reply to an article in the Presse against standing armies, in which the writer, after asserting that life in barracks not only causer the soldier to lose his previous habits of industry, but de moralises him, quotes a passage from a work of M. de Girardin, declaring that the mortality in the rank and file of the army is 22 per cent. among men between 20 and 30 years of age, while it is only 10 per cent is the civil popu lation of the same age. The Moniteur declares that the as sertion with regard to the demoralisation of the soldier is disproved by all statistics and by the eagerness with which discharged soldiers are sought after by private individuals and directors of commercial and industrial establishments to fill places of trust. With regard to the statement respect ing the mortality in the army, the Illoniteur says that the statistics the Presse drew its concl us i o ns from are those be longing to years prior to 1846, since which time a great change has taken place, as shown by the Statistique Medicate of the army published by the Ministry of War in 1864. That work proves that the mortality in the army in France was 9.42 per 1,000 in 1862, and only 9.22 in 1863 ; the mortality in civil life, between. the ages of 20. and 30, being 9.29 per 1,000, which is higher than it was in the army for all ages in 1863. Even including the troops in Africa and in Italy, the average mortally Is only 10 per - 1,000, - instead of 24 per cent., as Stated by the Presse. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE —This Day.

Mr. Barber, the owner of The Clown, who came in second for the Members' Plate, having legally objected to Wind.. ham, the winner, for having carried short weight, has since withdrawn his objection, for what reason it is impossible to imagine. The conditions of the race were the following:— " The Members' Plate of 100 sovs., added to a handicap of 5 sovs. each ; winners of any handicap value 100 toys. after Juno 13 (at eight a.m.) 51b., of two ()roue of 200 sovs. 71b., or of one stake value 300 sovs.9lb. extra (extreme penalty); the second to save his stake. Newcastle Turn in (nearly one mile). 22 subs." Now Windham won the following race the previous week at Liverpool : "The Molyneux Cup (Handicap) for sll ages, of 300 sovs. in specie, by subscription of 10 sovs., with 100 added ; a winner of any handicap after June 11 of 100 sovs. 51b., twice or 200101 b. extra. Three-quarters of a mile. 30 subs." It will be seen at a glance from 'the above that Windham won a stake value £4OO including his own stake, or £390 without it. The conditions of the Members' Plate were that any horse having won 300 sow. was to carry 91b. extra ; consequently, Wind ham having only carried 71b. extra, the race belongs to The Clown, independent of the barber's withdrawal of the objection. No horse having carried too much or too little weight without a declaration to that effect can be re corded the winner. The Clown being the legitimate winner of the Members' Plate is consequently disqualified for the Gold Cup Stakes, as he ought to have carried 71b extra, as the following conditions will Show : ' The Gold Cup Stakes (handicap) of 10 sovs each, h ft, with 100 added ; the winner of the Northumberland Plate 91b, and the second 41b, or of any other handicap value 100 soya after May 31 (at half-past eleven) 51b, of two, or of one stake value 300 soya 91b extra (extreme penalty) ; the second to save his stake ; Newcastle Turn in. As the Jockey Club lawi of racing are in force at New castle, I shall quote the 64th rule with reference to the weight that Windham ought to have carried, which will show that Windham is no more the winner of the Members' Plate at Newcastle than the owner himself is, but that The Clown is the winner : RULE 64. In estimating the value of any prize no deduc tion shall be made, except of the winner's own stake and of any sum or sums required by the conditions to be paid out of the stakes to the owners of any other horse or horses in the race—the entrance for a plate not to be deducted. And every prize, not in specie, shall be estimated at its adver tised value in sovereigns, and if such value is not desig nated it shall be taken at the cost price. The winner of the Queen's Vase at Ascot is exempt from any penalty for such winning, unless this prize is specially mentioned in the conditions of the race. Those who backed the Clown for the Members' nate are entitled to their money, and the same remark applies to Curtain Lecture for the Gold Cup Stakes, as the Clown is disqualified for not carrying 71b extra. A similar case to the above happened two years ago at Ascot, when Knowsleywou the Stand Plate, Umpire being second. It was discovered on the Monday following that the former had carried too little weight, and the race was awarded to the latter. A FRESH MAN. Lamentable and Fatal Accident. e--- We deeply regret to record a very melancholy and fatal accident which has occurred in this island, and has caused great distress in one of our most respectable family circles, and very deep and general sympathy. The Rev. D. M. Lempriere, chaplain of the General Hospital and Prison, with his wife, children, and a lady friend, set out in the morning on a picnic excursion to Bonne Nuit, and while Mrs. Lempriere was walking along the ridge of one of the dangerous precipices there, one of the children having, it is supposed, ran too near the edge, in the attempt to save the little girl from the imminent danger in which sho was placed, Mrs. Lempriere herself slipped and fell over the precipice. The unfortunate lady was dashed to pieces, and her husband, who was a short distance behind, alarmed by the cries of his little daughter, ran to the spot, when he hadl the agony of mind to find his wife lying at the foot of the precipice a lifeless and mutilated corpse. The following is the evidence adduced at the inquest held on the body : Sergeant Francis West, R.A., deposed that in the morning, about 10 o'clock, while he was at work at the Bonne Nuit Battery, St. John's, his attention was drawn to a person falling down the slope to the beach. He looked through a glass and saw a gentleman raising a lady, who appeared insensible. He hastened immediately to the spot for the pur pose of rendering assistance. When he arrived he saw the body of a lady in the arms of Mr. Lempriere. Witness directed Gunner Davis, who had accompanied him, to run and fetch water and a towel from the barracks. At the re quest of Mr. Lampriere, who was getting exhausted, ho supported the lady until such time as a hand barrow and rug had arrived. With the assistance of the gunner he had the deceased conveyed to the nearest house in the neighbourhood. Ho had examined the place where Mrs. Lempriere had fallen. It was about 60 feet in height from the beach, with a slops, of 40 feet, and a perpendicular drop of from 13 to 20 feet. The deceased did not breathe. She must have been killed in staneously. Mr. Lempriere showed his wife's hat to wit ness, and it contained about half a pint - of congealed blood. She had fallen on her head on some stones imbedded in the beach. He believed the skull• must have been severely fractured. The pathway near the spot was very dangerous. Gunner B. Davis corroborated the statement of the former witness, and added that he saw the deceased fall from the slope upon the beach. Mr. Lempriere was next examined. He said—We loft town in the morning about 9 o'clock for the purpose of spending the day at Bonne Nuit, and arrived there in due course of time. After alighting from the car riage we went down the hill, when we came abreast of some soldiers' wives who were on the slope, and asked them for the pathway leading to the beach. We intended to bathe the children. The servant went ahead, carrying pro visions, and I followed, carrying my youngest child. My wife and a lady, our friend and companion, with two children, followed in the rear. I looked round several times to see how my wife and her companions were getting on. Mrs. Lempriere told me to go on, and as soon as I had deposited the child on the beach to come back and fetch her. I proceeded a short way, when to my surprise 'my eldest daughter, aged seven years, ran up to me and said, "Poor mamma has fallen down the hill !" I ran to the spot whore she should have stood, but I saw nothing but her parasol. I ran down the path to the beach, and only found a corpse there. I raised my poor wife's head ; but alas 1 all was over. Death must have been instantaneous. I was soon joined by two soldiers, who rendered every assistance in their power. I inquired for a surgeon, but I was told that none lived in the neighbourhood. The path was narrow, but the descent was gradual, and no danger a pprehended. The pathway was not difficult, for the chil dren trotted along it with ease. I surmise that Mrs. Lempriere must have got out of the path for the purpose of protecting one of the children, who may have gone too close to the precipice, and thus sacrificed her life to save that of her child. The accident took place in an instant. The mother fell with a shriek. Her maiden name was Maria Jane Cones, and she was a native of St. Saviour's. Her age was 37 years. Dr. Charles Le Vesconte Godfrey, surgeon of the General Hospital, said he had examined the body of the deceased lady. The whole of the cranium was completely fractured, and there was no doubt but that death was instantaneous. Marie Pincemen, a servant-maid in the family of Mr. Lempriero, was at the place with her mistress, but said sho did not see her fall ; she heard a shriek, and that was all. Tho deceased has left six children. The jury returned a verdict of Accidental Death."- -eey Paper. A MAN GORED TO DE.A.TII.--On Tuesday a man named James Diethley, at Barnsley, died from injuries re ceived on the previous Sunday by being gored by a bull. A bull belonging to Ur. Hattersley having got into a field in. the, occupation of his employers, he went up to put it out. For that purpose he got hold of the ring attached to the nose of the bull, when the animal -resisted and forced him down on the ground, and then gored _him in a very savage manner.
