MONEY MARKET COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE, TWELVE O'CLOCK. A more subdued and satisfactory feeling prevails in monetary circles, and as evidence of this fact the brokers are evincing a desire to secure the best com mercial bills at the official minimum of 7 per cent. There is still, however, some anxiety existing as to the p rogress discount affairs may take ; and though it is believed that the present high rate may prove sufficient to check any extraordinary demand for money, it would not create astonishment if a further advance were deemed necessary. ithin the last few days there has been less ani mation in the market for foreign and colonial pro duce. Sugars have maintained former rates, while Superior descriptions of coffee have slightly advanced. A moderate business has been done in the new season's teas, at full rates, while rice has been dull. In the tallow market prices, after rising to a con siderable extent, have since receded, consequent upon speculative sales induced by the rise in the value of money. The half-year's interest due on equipment mort gage bonds of the Grand Trunk Railway Company of Canada will be payable on and after Monday next. A meeting of the shareholders of the Continental Union Gas Company, Lewis Cubitt, Esq., in the chair, was held to-day, when a dividend at the rate of 8 per cent. per annum was declared. The subscription list for the London issue of the National Bank of Australasia will close on Satur day next, the 14th inst. Two o'CLock. At the Paris Bourse this morning, according to Reuter's telegram, the 3 per Cent. Rentes were 67f. 80c. Firm ; rather animated. A further improvement has taken place in the market for the English Funds. The transactions have not been numerous, but the public, as inves tors and speculators, have bought freely--hence an advance of 1 per cent. Consols are 881 for money, 891 1 for the account. The New Threes and Reduced Annuities are 86} ; Exchequer Bills, ss. to 9s. die ; India 5 per Cents., 104/ 105 ; and ditto 4 per Cents. 961. Foreign Stocks are a little flatter, owing to a few sales. Turkish Consolides are 481 1; Mexican, ex all bonds, 251 1 ; the New, 241 ; Greek, 20 1 ; Spanish Passive, 281 ; do. Certificate, 131 14i ; Italian, 63/ 64 ; Confederate Loan, 6 8 ; and Brazilian Scrip, 31 prem. Business in the Railway Share Market has been dull, but prices generally show an upward tendency. Brighton and Metropolitan have each improved £1 ; Lancashire and Yorkshire, and North Western, each 10s. ; and South Eastern, ss. In the Foreign and Colonial lines there' is little chang e of importance. American Securities have not been in good re quest, and quotations are generally unsteady. United States 5-20 Bonds are 681 1 ; Erie shares, 6 8 1; and Illinois, 821 1. Bank and Miscellaneous Shares continue very quiet. London Bank of Mexico have declined to 14 ; Mexican Bank to 251 ; Bank of Egypt to 301 Hudson B ay C ompany are dealt in at 151; London Financial at 22/ ; and Overend, Gurney, and Co. a l , t a l7 l ; Gale's P ro t ect i on Gunpowder Co. is quoted C°111.21 prem. ; Allan's Transatlantic Telegraph 2 i Pm . ; Me rc h ants ' Company, 1.1 pm.

A FRENCHMAN CHARGED WITH HAVING IN ins Pos- SESSION COUNTERFEIT FRENCH COlN.—Augustus Villemot, commission agent, of No. 34, Theobald's-road, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt by Sergeant Druscovich, of the detective department, Scotland-yard, with having in his possession several counterfeit coins of the empire of France, with intent to utter the same. Mr. Charles Albert, the interpreter, attended to interpre - - Sergeant Druscovich, of the detective department, Scot land-yard, said—About six or eight months ago I received information of the prisoner and another being engaged in passing counterfeit French coins. Yesterday, having kept observation on his movements, I saw him at a money changer's window take something out of one pocket and put it into another. I followed him about, and saw him go to the Cafd de L'Etoile, in Great Windmill-street. He there played cards for some time, and then went to the back part of the hotel. With the assis tance of Sergeant Shore, I followed and stopped him, and, on searching him, I found in his possession several packs of cards, tickets, and eight pieces of 5 francs each, wrapped in a paper, all of which are counterfeit. He asked me what I wanted to do with the money, and tried to get it away from me. He wished his worship to remand the case to a future day for the attendance of the French Consul-General. Mr. Tyrwhitt having referred to the Act, said that he found that if a person had moro than five pieces of coun terfeit foreign coin in his possession he was liable to the penalty under the act. He should, therefore, remand the prisoner. The prisoner has been known to the police for some time as a notorious card-sharper. WESTMINSTER. SWINDLING SHOPKEEPERS.—Mrs. Mary Jane Richardson, a tall and handsomely dressed woman, was charged upon a warrant with fraud in obtaining goods of value from the firm of Youngman and Hayman, silk mercers and drapers Sloane-street, Chelsea. Mr. James Lewes, of the firm of Lewes and Lewes, ad dressing the magistrate, said he appeared for the prosecu tion, and entertained no doubt that he should fully estab lish the charge upon which the prisoner had been appre hended. He might futher add that this was only one of the many other charges which would be exhibited of a like nature against the prisoner by different shopkeepers whom she had defrauded. Prisoner was a married woman, but had not lived with her husband for a long time, and he was suing in the Divorce Court for a separation. On Thursday afternoon the prisoner went to the shop of Mr. Alfred Hayman, who carried on business as the firm of Youngman and Hayman, and there selected goods to the value of between £3O and" £4O, which she desired to be sent home to the address she gave —Mulberry-terrace' House, Harewood-square. Amongst the articles was a silk dress value £7, which she requested to be allowed to take away with her to her dressmaker, as she was anxious to have it immediately made up. She then wrote her address, and gave a reference to a well known hand, and she was then permitted to take away the dress and some gloves in a cab. When the goods wore taken on the following morning to the place stated it was found that she did not reside there, and that Mr. Hayman had been cheated. When the application for the present warrant was made and appeared in the newspapers, Mr. Hayman was overwhelmed with communications from different tradesmen who had been similarly treated. Her husband had discarded her for her profligate habits, and there was no pretence for saying that she lived at the house where she had given her address, and upon the strength of which representation, confirmed by the name of Richardson in the " Court Guide," the various shopkeepers had parted with their property. The prisoner had been convicted of drunkenness and such like conduct, and a caution had been printed and issued by her husband to tradesmen, with a view of pro tecting them. Still she was going about and by falsehood and fraud obtaining goods. Prisoner—l have been acting under the advice of my solicitor, who told me to go to different tradesmen's shops and get what I wanted, and go to different hotels to lodge. _ _ Mr. Selfe—l should like to see the solicitor who recom• mended you to do so. Prisoner—My husband has not made me any allowance. What was I to do ? Mr. Selfe—Told the truth to the tradesmen. Mr. Lewis said the prisoner was apprehended at the Albemarle Hotel at ono o'clock thin morning. There was only 2s. Bd. found on her. Prisoner-1 have had no money lately from my husband. Mr. Schell, proprietor of the hotel, showed that she had given respectable references when she came there a week ago. She had paid nothing whatever. ' Mr. Hayman—There are twenty tradesmen here who have to complain of her. One stood up and was about to make a statement, but ii was considered better to defer it. Mr. Selfe (to prisoner)—You are remanded for a week. THAMES. A SAILOR WRECKED ON SRORE.—William Daniels, a sun-dried, weather-beaten seaman, was brought IJ - dor° Mr. Paget on a charge of wilful damage. Mr. John Skinner, a shopkeeper, of 154, High-street, Shadwell, said the prisoner fell into his shop through the window last night and broke three panes of glass. The frame and all was carried away. He could not say the prisoner was drunk or actuated by malice or ill-will. He believed the occurrence was not intentional—it was an ac cident. He was much alarmed by tho sudden intrusion of the prisoner into his shop through the window. The Prisoner—l was brought up all standing, and pitched in the - gentleman's shop head on, damaging my larboard cheek and ono of my fins. I struck on a piece . of cabbage leaf, and although I was net top-heavy, your honour, nor even three sheets in the wind, I could not heave-to, and overboard I went, carrying away that old gentleman's glass. George Richards, hairdresser, of No. 54, High-street, Shadwell, saw the sailor slip and fall into Mr. Skinner's shop. His head went first and his heels after him. When the sailor was picked up he was a complete wreck. Mr. Paget said he had no power at all in the case. It was not proved that the sailor wilfully broke the window and frame. It was accidental damage. The prisoner was answerable for his own carelessness, but not before a ma gistrate. Mr. Skinner—He refused to give any address, and he put me to much trouble. Mr. Paget—l can't compel him to give you his address. The prisoner—l intend to cast anchor at the Sailors' Home in Well-street. • Mr. Paget said the complainant and his witness had expressly declared the damage was not intentional. The accident might have been unavoidable. If the sailor was tripped up:by any substance on the pavement he was to be pitied, not censured or punished. If the prisoner had been careless he could be summoned • before Sir Walter Riddell at the Whitechapel County Court, who would give redress. Mr. Skinner—He is nowhere ; where am Ito find a sailor if I do summon him ? Mr. Paget—lt is bad enough to have your windows broken. It would be much worse if I broke the law. The prisoner has not committed any wilful damage, and I will allow him to be discharged. 'United States of America Debt. MEETING THIS DAY. A public meeting of the holders of the bonds, stocks, and shares on which coupons and interest of which are now in arrear, owing to the late civil war in America, was held this day, at the London Tavern, for the purpose of con sidering the present position of these securities, and for the formation of a committee to protect their interests. Mr. E. HAZLEWOOD presided, and expressed his regret at the absence of his brother, Mr. J. Hazlewood, who was prevented by domestic calamity from being present. There was a great necessity for such an organisation as was now proposed for the protection of the interests of the bondhold ers, and to give them an authoritative position in America, and to restore them to their former status. Having gone through the accounts owed to bondholders by the different States of America, he said that there was no apprehension that their debts would not be paid in consequence of the emancipation of the slaves. For 30 years the debt had been punctually paid. He contended that the effect of the abolition of slavery in the South would have the effect of introducing the white population into that part of America to the manifest advantage of the productive power of those States, which, up to the present time, had not been fully developed. What he proposed was that they should fund all the arrears up to the present time into one debt, the coupons to be paid in this country, and to have a sinking furid to pay the debt in twenty-years. This proposition did not originate with the proposers of that meeting, but emanated from a corporation in the United States. (Hear, hear.) Ho concluded by moving the appointment of a committee, consisting of gentlemen who were interested largely in the present subject. Dr. BLACK, in the course of an able speech, combated the theory of the general insalubrity of the Southern States, and contended that slavery was the curse of the States, which would become immensely more valuable in the hands of white men: He contended also that the South Americans were a noble race, and that they would be the last to do anything dishonourable towards those to whom they were justly indebted. After a short discussion it was agreed that the following gentlemen, with power to add to their number, be ap pointed, viz.--the Chairman, Mr. E. Hazlewoad, Mr. Scholefield, M.P., Dr. Black, and Mr. G. Gowan. Other resolutions were agreed to giving effect to the wishes of the meeting, and the proceedings terminated with a voto of thanks to the chairman. THE THAMES EMBANKMENT.--Within the last few days the cofferdam fronting Somerset House, and ex tending to the west end of No. 2 contract, near Waterloo bridge, has been completed and made water-tight. The dam at the eastern end is also fast approaching completion, and thus by the completion of both dams the entire line of works will shortly bo enclosed from the effects of the tide. By the arrival of the overland mail from 13ombay we have received Calcutta and Bombay papers dated respectively, the Ist and the Bth of September. The substance of the news was comprised in a tele gram which we published last Saturday. The following additional items of intelligence are from the Bombay Gazette : The agent of the G. I. P. Railway Company is about to propose to the postal authorities to run on express train through Bombay to. Kundwah and Budhaira at the end of the year, within an hour or two of the arrival of the Eng lish mails, provided the Postmaster-General will contri bute towards the expenses. It is understood that Mr. C. Gonne is to act as Under Secretary to Government in the Legislative Department, in room of Mr. Birdwood, on that gentleman's resignation. An amended scheme for the amalgamation of a number of the new banks in Bombay has been decided on. A new bill has been introduced into the Legislative Council to regulate and restrict the sale of poisons in the Bombay Presidency, in assimilation of the English Acts. The official title of the Accountant-General to the Mili tary Department has been charged to that of Controller- General of Military Expenditure. A new club has been started at Poona to be called the Club of Western India. Her Majesty's steamer Hugh Lindsay was wrecked in the Persian Gulf on the 18th ult. No lives were lost. The vessels of the Anglo-Chinese squadron, which have been lying in Bombay harbour for the last 18 months, are to be sold forthwith. It is again rumoured that Scinde is to be transferred to the Punjab Government, but it is not expected to takeplace during Sir Bartle Frere's incumbency. The Ameer of Cabul is reported to have imprisoned Mahomed Raffeek Khan and another Birder on account of their being suspected of haring been concerned in sowing the late discussions In the family. It is also stated that Sheik Alee Khan is dead. A Persian letter has been received confirming the report of the occupation of Samarkand by a Russian army, and that a Russian and Persian envoy have had a conference with the Ameer Sher Allee Khan at Candahar, and have induced him to return to Cabul instead of proceeding to Herat. There is a rumour that Colonel D. M. Stewart, deputy adjutant-general of the army, is to bo appointed to the command of the force destined to enter Bhootan, with the rank of brigadier-general. It is rumoured that the Governor-General is once more moving the Home Secretary to allow the head-quarters of the Government to remain at Simla during tho hot season as a permanent measure. It has now been officially settled that the Governor- General's camp will break up about the sth proximo, when his Excellency will proceed towards Lahore to hold the annual Durbar of the native chiefs. The trial of Raja Biigbejee Sing, of Mohana, in Oudh, commenced at Lucknow on the 17th ult. He is charged with rebellion, complicity in the murder of Europeans, ike. The disturbances at Bhawulpoor resulted in a battle be tween the insurgents, under Beyram Khan, and the Na wab's forces, commanded -by Goolam Mahonied, near Chokea Abra, which lasted from eight in the morning till eight at night. There were about 100 men killed and wounded altogether, all of whom, with the exception of 13, belonged to the insurgents. The leaders escaped and put their women to the sword to prevent their falling into the hands of the victors. With regard to the Durbar of the chiefs and Sirdars of the Deccan, held at Poona on the sth of September, by Sir Bartle Frere, the Bombay Gazette observes : His Excellency's text was education, and his pointed, plainspoken, and nervous remarks, which were delivered in Marathee, the language of the chiefs, were a scathing rebuke to the proud and unlettered men who had come up to their ancient capital to meet the representative of thence which had conquered them. Thirty years ago, said his Excel lency, he knew some of them, but such had been their stagnant and apathetic life, that they are not better in structed now than when his Excellency's acquaintance with them began. Sir Bartle Frere acknowledges that his personal and private influence over them has failed to awaken them to a sense of the magnitude and . course of the events which are transpiring around them, and we confess we do not expect that his public rebuke willhave much effect upon men who " can neither speak the language of their government," nor read nor write their own. It is well that it should be administered ; well that they should know the length and breadth of their short- comings. It was never the intention of the English Government to preserve a native aristocracy of ignorance and pride ; and if not by legislation or policy, at least by the inevitable march of events, must they fall from their power and influence among their countrymen, and the re spect of the government which has preserved to them their dignities and rights. Every year ought to make it make apparent to them that it is only by acquiring the language and some of the learning and knowledge of their conquerors that they or their descendants can ever retain their repute in India. His Excellency very forciblypointed out to them that the old standards of nobility and the old regime of honour were passing away and that they must strive now to improve their own estates and the condition of their ryots and take an active part in the administration and improvement of their country. The same journal contains the following respect ing the loss of the ship Eagle Speed at themouth of the Mutlah : The Eagle Speed left Port Canning on the morning of Sunday, 20th August, having on board 497 coolies who were being conveyed to Demerara. On Monday afternoon, while still in charge of a tug steamer, Lady Elgin, she struck in the western channel of the Mutlah, but was dragged off by the steamer, and anchored in the channel for the night. She continued to make so much water that signals of distress were made to the tug. Shortly after midnight and by Tuesday afternoon, after unaccountable delay and mis management in the efforts to save the unfortunate creatures the tug steamed back to Port Canning, with, forsooth, the captain and crew of the Eagle Speed and with 207 of the coolies, leaving 290 coolies helpless and without any one in supervision or authority over them on the sinking ves sel. Of these about 30 were subsequently saved, the rest, numbering 265, have perished. The catalogue of blunders seems to have numbered legion. 1. The crew of the Eagle Speed, numbering 25 men, is said, with the exception of five or six, to have been unfit for duty although shipped only a few days before sailing. 2. The tug did not ap proach the Eagle Speed till after dawn on Tuesday morn ing notwithstanding that signals of distress were shown after midnight. 3. Although it was known that the vessel was sinking, all her boats were not used, and those that were used were eithor wantonly and intentionally smashed by the lazy, cowardly crew who were sure of saving their own lives, or so carelessly handled that they very soon became unfit for further use. 4. The brutal European crew finally totally refused to exert themselves further, o telling Capt a i n H oskins, the port-master of Port Canning, who happen e d t o b e on board the tug, and who appears to have be en th e only one that laboured zealously in saving those wh o were taken from the wreck, that " they would be --- if they w o uld make another t r ip." 5. From th e fi rst moment of the catastrophe till the tug boardleft, the everythingone vessel, llke h a l i n k d e order naenu i c ty e a o s cease d e aorn nestness, or eve n a comprehension of the magnitude of the a s n e d a m n a n o t h s i n i p g disaster prevailed in the other. 6. The tug was not a first class steamer, and first class steamers are only allowed by the port regulations to tow coolie ships ; and 7, the pilot was not a master pilot, although the regulations require that master pilots only shall have charge of such vessels. To the list of blunders, of which the above are but a few, must be added several accidental circumstances which did not help to diminish the misfortune, such as rough weather in the channet, the bursting of a steam pipe on board the tug, the imperfect way in which the Mutlah is buoyed, &c. The several versions of the wreck do not conflict with each other in any main particular, but the inquiry which is ordered will bring to light the authen tic particulars, and show oa whose shoulders the responsi bility rests. With respect to the trial of 31r. Fraser the Bom bay Gazette says Not the least among the striking results of that hasten ing to be rich. which was the moving spirit of the late spe culative mania is the terrible illustration which it has been left to Calcutta to furnish within the last few days. Mr. A. B. Fraser, the agent for the Calcutta branch of the Indian Peninsula, London, and China Bank, has been found guilty, after a trial of three days' duration, of criminally misappro priating to his own uses a sum of over £16,000 belonging to the bank, and vitiating his account bythe entry of a pre tended cheque which was devised to make his superiors at Bombay, to whom he had periodically to report the state of the funds, believe that there was a balance in his favour, instead of £16,000 at his debit. Fraser has lived in Calcutta for a period of 10 or 12 years, but came from England to t take the m o c u h t a h r s g e a g o o f the a Calcutta d s shortly b a iia t n e r c h his f t a h n e bank i val his about bre f course of speculation began. Ho was in supreme charge at Calcutta of the funds of the bank's branch there, and, pro- bably, in the best faith, imagined that a loan to himself was as legitimate an operation as to another. Facilis decensus Arerni, and Mr. Fraser no sooner trusted himself to the slippery gradient than his course downward into indis putable criminality was rapid. It was strongly urged that it was his intention to restore the money, but the jury took the only view of the case 'that was properly open to them, and found him guilty. He was sentenced to four years' penal servitude. THE ABSCONDING CONNECTICUT BANK CLERK. —Jeremiah Townsend, who was arrested at Liverpool for absconding with $lOO,OOO of the money of the Townsend savings bank at New Haven, Connecticut, was placed on trial at New Haven on the 19 th of Septemb er . Th e pro ceedings were brief, for he pleaded guilty, an d was sen tenced to seven years' solitary con fi nement, with hard labour, in. the State prison. The eagerly longed-for rain, gladdening to the heart of the trainer as well as agriculturist, and, indeed, every class of the community, has ushered in the Cesarowitch week. The Heath is no longer the dusty Sahara it was last meet ing, and though the long drought will require more mois ture than has fallen to penetrate the hard ground, yet that dread of the racing man, small fields, will not this meeting be the rule. " The Cesarewitch Trial," as the £5O Plate over that course is called, is generally one of the principal features of the opening day, but this year, limited to four runners, with only Hippolyta to beat the moderate trio opposed to her, there was very little interest in the event, and very little "line" to be got as to the result of the great race to morrow. The Baron's mare won hard held, and Zephyr's chance is, therefore, a slightly improved one. Kilkenny, at the top weight, carried off the Handicap Sweepstakes over the T.Y.C. with great ease, and Ambition, Miss Roland, and Sister to Amber made a good finish in the £5O Plate for 2-yr-olds, the former winning by a head. One of the most exciting events of the day was the Free Handi cap over the Rowley mile, in which Breadalbane gave Sydmonton 111 b., and showed his magnificent rate of speed by running his field to a standstill. The Cesarewitch betting underwent no very important change beyond a slight decline in Alabama's position, and the coming of Privateer and John Davis, the latter of whom is announced to be the Danebury representative. The French horse Vertugadin was largely supported inthe course of the afternoon at 33 to 1. The attendance was hardly so large as we have remem bered it, but the town is full, and a great influx is expected to-morrow. Handicap Plate of £5O, for 3-yr-olds and upwards. Cesarewitch Course.

Half-way in the cords Alice Lee and the favourite were beaten, when Regina and Camball, who had been in wait ing, made their effort, but failed to reach Lord Westmore land's colt, who won in a canter by three lengths; a like distance separated the second and third.

They ran thus to halfway in the cords, where Ambition and Miss Roland closed up with Sister to Amber. The three from this point ran so close a race home that it was not until the numbers were exhibited that it was believed Ambition, who ran the long est, had won by a head, a short head separating the second and thud; Alberta finished fourth, a couple of lengths in their rear, Fortunatus fifth, Isabella sixth, The Rector seventh, and Miss Harriette next.

Quaker, on the lower ground, having a slight lead of Pantaloon, close up with whom, on the right, were Sydmonton, the favourite, and Tancrede. They ran in these positions to the Bushes, when the two Frenchmen were beaten, and Sydmonton then took a clear lead and came on with the running, with Pantaloon on his left and Breadalbane on his right, into the Abingdon Mile bottom, where Custance brought out the favourite, who had his opponents beaten half-way up the hill, and won in a canter by four lengths. Quaker, who ran past Pantaloon a short distance of home, finished third, a couple of lengths in advance of the Marquis of Hastings's colt.

SCULLERS' RACE FOR £lOO. A scullers' race for the above amount (f5O aside) took place yesterday, and proved most remarkable. The com petitors were George Cannon, of Blackwall, and Th omas Hoare, of Hammersmith, both watermen, of about the same age, Cannon having advantage over his opponent of half a stone in weight, which was counterbalanced by Hoaro possessing considerably more skill at handling the sculls than his opponent. Both had previously figured against some excellent men, and as they trained at rival houses, Hoare at Wilcox's, the White Hart, Barnes, and cannon, at Harry Kelly's, the Bell Tavern, Putney, considerable interest was excited ; steamers were chartered to accompany the race, which were densely crowded with the fri en d s o f the competitors, among whom betting was pretty animated, at 6 to 5 and guineas to pounds on Cann on . M r. Ireland, of the London Rowing Club, had been previously appointed referee, and Mr. J. Messenger having been appointed umpire for Cannon and Mr. Wilcox for Hoare they got to stations at five o'clock, in a blinding rain, which lasted all the way, notwithstand ing which the pace was so great that had the winner put on a little more at the finish this would have been the fastest race on record. After one attempt they got off, Cannon, who had the station, obtaining the lead, but in half-a-dozen strokes Tom Hoare rowed so fast and well that, at the Star and Garter, he was nearly clear. Can non's lon ger s t ro k es, however, told in his favour. He began to come up with his opponent, and after a tremen dous struggle went ahead, passing him by a clear length at Craven, where ho took his o pp onen t' s wa t er . I n t h ese positions, Cannon perhaps increasing his lead, they rowed to the Crab-tree, when Hoare putting on a splendid spurt drew again on Cannon and over-slipped his stern at Ham mersmith-bridge. Both were now doing their very best,and it was long before Hoare could conquer his opponent. In the middle of Chiswick Eyott they were level, and then Hoare's more polished style began to tell. He gradually stole ahead in the rough water, and at the top of the Eyott succeeded in drawing clear, after rowing one of the finest races on record for nearly three miles. After this the race was oTer. At Barnes-bridge there were four lengths between them, Hoare ultimately winning by five lengths in 23 minutes 16 seconds. The course was from Putney to Mortlake. Twenty-seven ran. Won by a bead ; two lengths between second and third. HANDICAP SWEEPSTAKES OF 15 SOVS. Attache 1 Camball 2 ROYAL STAKES.

When an objection made by the Liberal party was about to be heard by the barrister, the Conservative advo cates (Mr. T. J. Bremridge and Mr. F. Sanders) took ex ception to the notice, which bore the post-mark " August' 26," a day too late. Mr. Strowbridge, the Liberal "runner," had produced his duplicate notice, saying, "Served by post, August 25," and this duplicate was handed to the bar rister. On examination of the post-office stamp it was evident that there had been an alteration of the date. U. l lis post-office clerks were sent for, and they were positive tha t not only had the figure " 6" been turned into "5," but that the index letter, showing the mail by which the notice had been issued, had also been altered. Moreover ono of the clerks distinctly recollected Strowbridge bringing on notice and duplicate on the morning of the 26th, and that he (the witness) had observed that it was a day behind time. He likewise remembered part of the address on the notice. Strowbridge, who had formerly been a letter-carrier, persisted in his statement that he had posted the notice on the 25th. The barrister said until Strowbridge had cleared himself ho must hold him guilty of altering the post-office stamp. He should retain the notices, and take time to consider whether he could take further notiee of the matter. On Friday the Conservative advocates obtained a summons against Strowbridge, and on Saturday ho was brought before the city magistrates on the charge of wilful and corrupt perjury. The revising barrister, his clerk, and others were examined. Mr. Fryer, on behalf of the defendant, argued that the oath admini stered to Strowbridgo, to give a true answer to all ques tions, was administered to him in his capacity of assistant overseer, and not as a server of notices ; also that the altera tion had not been traced to him, and that ho believed he was speaking the truth when he said the notice had been served on the 25th. The bench considered the case prove d and committed Strowbridge to take his trial at the spring assizes. Bail was accepted, himself in £lOO and two sure ties of £5O each. CRUELTY ON BOARD SKIP. —.Another case of vio lence to a boy on board ship came before the Green wich magistrates yesterday morning. The depositions cf the boy, who is lying in the Dreadnought hospital ship, with his back broken, and without the slightest hope of recovery, was taken by the magistrate, and was to the following effect :—" I am seventeen years old, and was brought up on board the Marine Society's ship Warspite. From that ship I was apprenticed to Capt. John Breme, of the Hudgill, collier, belonging to Newcastle. I had only been on board three days, and on the night of the third day, about twelve o'clock, I was standing on deck. One of the men was passing a rope along the deck, and he said something to me, speaking in a north -country lan guage that I did not understand. I did not say a word to him, and because I did not do what I suppose he wanted me to do, he struck me on the back of the neck with his fist, and the blow knocked me down into the middle;.hold. I was standing close to the hold, and the rope the man was handling ran between me and the hold. I remember nothing after that until I found myself here. The man had not spoken to me more' than once. It was dark, and I could not see which of the crew it was who did it. All the crew were on the deck at the time, an consisted of not more than six persons besides the captain. The ship was lying off tho ballast wharf at Gravesend; I am sure the blow was struck intentionally." The man who struck the blow is not in custody. u N CLE I D O u U r S i n iki g t O h D e E fi r O s F t h C a O If NIT of E Y t the Tthen gentleman married a lady in [lull, and conveyed from Hull to Whitby in a . waggon, heaped by two m en m IN h the eighteenth h t ß ee i n i i t y p h h E o c ' e S n h t a F u d r °R y t then large fortune of £lO,OOO, which was c p l a r i t d o i i n . w gu a ine o as, heaped up with straw, an d accompanied dressed as rustics, each armed with a formidable hayfork.
