This was an action brought by the plaintiffs to rezov er a sum of £lO2 9s. 5d., to which the defendants, two brothers, pleded not indebted and fraud. Mr. M. Chambers, Q.C., and Mr. Hawes appeared for he plaintiffs, and Mr. H. James for the defendants. From the opening statement of counsel it appeared that the plaintiffs were artist; at 339, Oxford-street, and one of the defendants, Mr. Samuel Solomon; was a solicitor, and the other a commission agent, both residing at the house of their father, an optician, in Albemarle-street. On Octo ber last the defendants went to the plaintiffs, and asked them if thcy could supply them with a certain num ber of magic lantern slide; which were to be printed, instead of, as usual, painted. The plaintiffs undertook to make the necessary experiments, and for that purpose one of them went to Paris and acquired the process from a particular firm there, which possessed a knowledge of the peculiar process necessary. An agree ment was then entered into between the parties by which the defendants agreed to take a minimum number of 250 of the slides at lid. a piece, and also to take a certain number for two year; the plaintiffs stipulating not to supply any other persons, and the defendants not to employ any other manufacturers during that period. The 250 slides were duly delivered, and on some of them being slightly blemished after leaving the plaintiffs' pre mises others were substituted. However, the plaintiffs were unable to obtain their money on the grounds pleaded by the defendants. The case was not concluded at the rising of the court. COURT OF EXCHEQUER. (Sittings at Nisi Prius, beforo Mr. Baron Martin and a Common Jury.) There were several cases set down for hearing this morning, but up to a quarter to 11 o'clock none of the par ties were ready. Mr. Baron Martin said it was a great shame that the time of the court should be so wasted, anti when it was occasioned by the attorneys .in the suit, it would be only serving them right if actions were brought against them for their neglect, considering that they were paid, Central Criminal Court. —This Day. (Before the Recorder j THE CHARGE OF PERJURY AGAINST THE POLICE. The charge of perjury preferred against Midherlayes, a police-constable in the S division, wa s p rocee d e d w i th this day. It will be recollected that last session the in dictment against Berry was tried, and resulted in an ac quittal, the charge against him being that he wilfully corn mat ma perjury in 0.0 ov;aoraoo given lbohare Ciao mwbicbawbo at Marylebone police court in swearing that he and Hayes took two young men, named Pierce and Dye, into custody near 63, Gloucester-crescent, Regent's-park, on a charge of attempting to commit a burglary. The lads said thepolice arrested them near Eversholt-street, Camden-town, and that so far from attempting feloniously to enter the pre mises in Gloucester-crescent they were never near the place at all on the evening in question. The lads had stood their trial at the Middlesex Sessions on the charge and the result was an acquittal, and the present proceed ings against the police-constables were instituted. The witnesses who gave their evidence at the trial of Berry last sessions were then examined by Mr. Sleigh, and afterwards cross-examined by Sergeant Ballantine, who appeared for the defence. The trial will not be concluded to-day. NEW COURT. CHARGE OF ROBBERY ON LORD MAYOR'S-DAY. William Albert was indicted with having committed larceny from the person on Lord Mayor's -clay. From the evidence of the police-constables it appeared that the prisoner was seen standing near a lady and gentleman at the top of Cheapside, and shortly after he had taken up his position, a gentleman, who had noticed the prisoner, pushed him away from the side of the lady, entertaining a suspicion that he intended to pick her pocket. Some other persons having noticed the prisoner, and amongst them were the policemen, who distinctly stated that they saw the prisoner put his hand into a lady's pocket and take therefrom a purso. The lady declined to appear against the prisoner as the articles in the purse were of trifling value. The learned gentleman who defended the prisoner denied that he had committed the offence with which he was charged. There was the usual hurleyburley always pre valent on the 9th of November, and tho prisoner unfortu nately got mixed up in a crowd, and the present charge was the result. One of the jury, before the deliveay of the verdict, asked the Common Sergeant if he could inform him of the ante cedents of the prisoner. The Common Sergeant said the English law did not allow that, the verdict must be returned upon the evidence, as they were not supposed to have any previous know ledge of the persons they had to try. The. Foreman said the jury had given the prisoner the benefit of the doubt, and had agreed upon a verdict of 4Tot guilty. THE SUN, LONL;ON, TUESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 20, 1366.

THURSO, N. 8., Nov. 18. While it was blowing hard last night with showers of snow (says John Swanson, Esq.), the schooner Anna Bervie of Lerwick brought up in the bay with sails split. The lifeboat Polly of the National Lifeboat Institution put off and took out the crew of five men and brought them safely ashore. MUNDESLEY, N ORFOLK, Nov. 18. A number of small vessels were riding off hero on the 16th inst., when it suddenly came on to blow from the E.N.E., a heavy sea also running in, which caused four of them to part from their chains and drive ashore. As soon as their perilous p3sition was seen the Mundesley old life boat went to the rescue, and succeeded in saving the lives of nice men and two women from the rigging of the stranded vessels, one man and ono boy having unfortu nately perished by being washed overboard by the heavy seas as the vessel drove ashore. RAMSGATE, Monday Night. About half-past six o'clock this morning signal guns and rockets were fired from the North Sand Head and Gull light ships. It was blowing strong at the time from N:N.W. The lifeboat Bradford, of the National Lifeboat Institution, immediately proceeded out, and was niet `by the harbour steam-tug Aid, which took her in tow, and proceeded direct for the North Sand Head, where a brig was observed on shore on the high part of the sand. The lifeboat was' towed to windward, and then bore 'clown to the brig, which was observed to bo under water, with a very heavy sea breaking over her. The lugger Florence Nightingale, of Broadstairs, was just leaving her, having succeeded with great risk and skill in rescuing the crew of eight men, and a quarter of an hour afterwaids the vessel turned over and entirely disappeared. It is believed the lugger happened to be near the brig when she got upon the Sand. As the lifeboat left the wreck she observed the North Deal and Walmer lifeboats, which belong to the National Lifeboat Institution, approaching, when they were informed that the crew of the brig wei e saved, and the lifeboats there upon returned. The vessel was the brig Joseph and Elizabeth, of Whitby, bound from Shields to Dunkirk with coals. When out at the Sand a large quantity of spars and rigging was observed about a ,mile from the wreck of the brig, supposed to belong to another vessel lost during the night. HASBOROUGH, NORFOLK, Nov. 17. Intelligence was brought here last evening (reports the Rev. J. Slater) that a vessel was ashore about two miles to the south of this place. .The wind was blowingvery strong at the time, bringing up a very heavy sea. The Hudders field lifeboat of the National Lifeboat Institution was launched as soon as possible and proceeded to the wreck, and effected a communication with her, but unfortunately the crew, instead of taking the line, went aft, and the lifeboat then drifted to leeward, and such was the strength of the boiling tide that all efforts to pull back to the vessel were unavailing; and the crew of the lifeboat were there fore obliged to take the boat back to land in order that they might go along the shore and launch her again to windward of the wreck. Meantime, however, before the lifeboat could get afloat again the shipwrecked crew of five men were fortunately got safely ashore by means of the rocket apparatus. The vessel was the brigantine Amazon, from Dunkirk. Immediately after this the crew of the lifeboat heard that another vessel was ashore at Ostend • about a mile and a half to the northward of Hasborough, and they, therefore, hastened to convey the lifeboat thither, but be fore they could reach 'the scene of wreck the men heard that the lifeboat, Recompense, of the National Lifeboat Institution, stationed at Bacton, had preceded them, and rescued the hands on board. About the same time another small vessel, laden with wheat, stranded about a mile south of Hasborough. The crew of two men and a boy were saved by means of the rocket apparatus. POLICE IN Day. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. EXTRAORDINARY CHARGE—A SHAM POLICE-CONSTABLE. Hanwell, a young man, described as a baker, and Wm. Osborne, a blacksmith, were charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with - breaking open the door of Chas. Haines, a ginger beer bottler, living in Bennett's-buildings, St. Giles's, and stealing therefrom some articles. Hanwell was further charged with assaulting the prosecutor, and repre senting himself as a constable of the .P division, he' not being one, and Osborne was further charged with being drunk. .= • The prosecutor, a young man, who gave his evidenee in anything but a clear manner, said—About 1 o'clock this morning I sa - as in my room, 1, Bennett's-buildings, St. Giles's, when my door was broken open by Hanwell, who seized hold of me and said he was a police-coUstable of the division, that he had got something against me, and that I was to come along with him. I went along with him, and on getting into Denmark-street I told him that I would go with him, and that the first constable I saw I would make him take us both to Bow-street station. Han well then struck me a violent blow in the mouth, knocking me down, and ran away till he was caught in the arms of police-constable 145 F. I lost my apron and scarf pin. By Hanwell—The lock of the door was easily forced. There was a second Verson in the room. I will swear that you said that you belonged to the F division. By Mr. Tyrwhitt —I have seen Hartwell before. David Gamble, 145 F—l was on duty this morning in High-street, and heard cries of "Police" in Denmark-street, and met the two prisoners and another running at a fast rate. I stopped Hanwell, who had a leather apron in his hand. The prosecutor came up bleeding, and said that Hanwell had broken into his room and represented him self as a police-constable. He said that Hanwell had taken the apron and Osborne the pin. I took them to the station and searched them, and found on Hanwell 305., but no pin. Musicll said the money was his master's. William Hughes, 172 C—Hearing cries of " Police," I went into Denmark-street, and saw the prosecutor lying on the ground, and he said Hanwell bad knocked him down, and that his apron and pin had been taken from him. Prosecutor recalled, said in answer to Mr. Tyrwhitt Osborne did not come into the room but was outside, whilellanwell was in. Sergeant Chappell, 4 F—The pin was brought to the station this morning by a female. I wish for a remand, as I think I shall be able to produce further evidence. Mr. Tyrwhitt remanded the prisoners, and refused Han well's father's application for bail. SHARE MARKETS,—This Day. share/ Railways. Bristol and Exeter .... Caledonian ..

The admiral was well received by the Governor and the autho rities of the country. He reports that French commerce has sensibly increased at this point during the last three years. On leaving St. Paul the Zenobie visited Mossa modes and Elephant's Bay, which serves as training ground for the ships on this station. The day after the arrival of the frigate at Lagos an English schooner brought news from Dahomey. The Xing was preparing to go to war with the Ashantees, and, to propitiate fortune, had ordered 200 men to be sacrificed to the Genii, This is the third time within a year that he has indulged in this hor rible barbarity."

MONTAGU DYER AGAIN.—M. Dyer, "gentleman," 11, Arthur-street, Chelsea, who was concerned in prosecuting. Mrs. Allen for perjury, was charged with uttering a cheque with intent to defraud, it being valueless. John Crowther, stonemason, of Marlborough-square, Chelsea, proved that the prisoner came and introduced himself, about a fortnight ago, stating that he could give witness some work. Saturday he called, and asked witness to cash a cheque for him, and produced one for .£lO lase 9d. on the London General Bank, crossed, drawn by a man named Burgess upon one Welsh. Witness was paying his men and could not cash it, and offered to get it cashed; he went with prisoner to a public-house kept by a Mr. Bil lington, who, on the cheque being presented, said "Is it all right ?" to which prisoner replied "It's as safe as the Bank." The cheque was afterwards returned, marked "no account," as also was another which had been pre sented, drawn by the same party. Prisoner said the cheque was given to him as a valuable one, and he had no intention of fraud. He did not know the parties whose names were on the cheque, as he had only been introduced to Burgess a few days ago. He asked for bail to find them. Mr, Belle said he would not bail him. Lot him give their addresses ; it was a miserable attempt to swindle, and rscvnatny ptunbutnl u ne al CI not clear himself. TIIAMES. BEWARE or JOHN JONES.--A strange-looking man, named John Jones, was brought before Mr. Paget, charged with stealing 12 sheets, the property of George Westby, the proprietor of the Queen Coffee-house, 144, High-street, Poplar. The prisoner hired a bed last night at the Queen. He was leaving this morning enormously increased in bulk, and was suspected by Mr. Westby, who directed Ralph Garbey, his servant, to follow him. The prisoner attempted to run, but the load he had about him prevented him making any rapid progress, and he was soon overtaken, brought back to the Queen, and 12 sheets, which he had about his person, were taken from him. He had stripped six bads of their sheets, including the one on which he had slept. He was given into the custody of Moon, a police constable, No. 207 K., to whom he stated that he was very sorry for what he had done. It was stated that a man answering the description of the, prisoner had robbed other coffee and lodging houses. Notice had been given to other victims, but they did not appear. Mr. Paget expressed his surprise that a man should dis pose of a dozen sheets round his body. Moon said the sheets were twisted round the body and limbs of the prisoner. The sheets were worth 2s. each. The prisoner made no defence, and Mr. Paget committed him for trial. ATTEMPTED ROBBERY AT A LINEN DRAPER'S SHOP.— Alfred Miles, a youth, was brought before Mr. Paget, charged with attempting to steal 40 yards of calico, valued at 125., the property of Henry Joseph Browning, draper, of No. 164, White Horse-street, Stepney. The prosecutor saw the prisoner and another boy trying to take away a roll of calico, which was made fast to a bar at the door. Both fellows were pulling at the calico, and could not succeed in removing it. Mr. Browning seized the prisoner, who said he did not intend to steal the calico —he was only looking at it. The prisoner consented to the magistrate disposing of the case, and Mr. Paget sentenced him to three months' imprisonment and hard labour. STEALING MEAT. —Ann King, a woman who appeared to 'be in tolerably good circumstances, was charged with stealing 61bs. of pork, the property of Mr. J. Basmore, but cher, of No. 3, Duke-street, St. George-in-the-East. The prosecutor carries on an extensive retail trade, and has been frequently plundered. He, has prosecuted many persons for stealing meat from his shop, and they have been severely punished. The robberies have continued, and Mr. Basmore's men have kept a sharp look-out after pilferers. The prisoner was observed to take a hand of pork off the counter and put it under her shawl. She was seized instantly and the meat taken from her. She now said she was not guilty, and that nothing was known against her. Mr. Paget committed the prisoner for trial at the Mid. dlesex Sessions. Serious Charge against Three Railway Directors. At the Mansion-house yesterday, Mr. Chas. Seale Rayne, of N0..8, Eaton-square; Sir John Campbell' Lees, of 26, Carlisle-terrace, Kensington, and Mr. David Smith, of 5, Pall-mall-place, appeared to answer a , summons issued at the instance of a Mr. John Taylor Fielder, described as of No. 4, Red Lion-court, for that " they in the month of September last, then being respectively directors of the Northern Railway of Buenos Ayres Company (Limited), did unlawfully make, publish, and circulate, and did con cur in making, circulating, and publishing-, a certain writ ten statement or account relating to the said company, they respectively well knowing the, same to be false in divers material particulars, with intent to defraud and deceive the members and creditors of the said company, contrary to the provisions of the statute 24 and 25 Viet., cap. 96, sec. 84." Mr. T. Beard appeared in support of the summon; and Mr. Murphy, barrister-at-law, attended for the three de fendants, who were accommodated with seats at the clerk's table. . Mr. Beard, in opening the case on the facts of which the summons was sought to be sustained, stated that the sum mons was issued under the 84th section of the Criminal Justices Act, under which the offence was only punishable by fine, but under a subsequent section or clause it was provided that if any director, manager, public officer, or secretary connected with a public company shall publish or circulate any written false statement with intent to de fraud or deceive the shareholders or creditors of the com pany, or with a view to induce persons to become share holders, that such published falsification of accounts, or statement of affairs, shall be a misdemeanour, and punish able at the discretion of the court. Now the case was this. The three defendants were directors of the , Northern Railway of Buenos Ayres Company, which' had recently become connected with the San Fernandez Railway, and the two companies be came amalgamated, and he (Mr. Beard) was instructed to state that the three defendants had no real interest in the amalgamated company except some shares registered to them at ss. each, and that with regard to Mr. Hayne, he did not at the time of his registration possess any qualifi cation ; the second defendant, Sir John Campbell Lees, stood in the same category, and the third defendant, Mr. Smith, was in the same position, except tl - ,Mt he had ob tained a qualification by the transfer to him of certain shares by the solicitor of the company. This, he was in structed, had been done to carry out tho views of a parti cular section of the shareholders, and that the office of directors had only been sought for the purpose of receiv ing the fees to which, as directors, they were entitled. In 1865 the amalgamation with the San Fernandez Company took place, and under it (the amalgamation) it was ar ranged that the shareholders should be placed in three classes ; first, the guaranteed preference shareholders ; next, the deferred preference shares ; and third, the ordi dinary shares ; and it would also appear that 7 per cent. ought to be applied generally to the shareholders. The accounts were made up to June last under the cognizance of the three defendants, and anything above 7 per cent. ought to have been paid as a bonus to the guaranteed shareholders after the completion of the railway. The accounts and the balance-sheet complained of had been published by the three defendants, and did not embody or carry out this arrangement, and objections having been taken to it, a proposition to refer it to Messrs. Quilter, Ball, and Co., the accountants, was refused by the de fendants, and it was a rather remarkable circumstance that when they were required to affix their signatures to the document they refused to do so, but the report, with the balance-sheet and the accounts, were adopted by the meeting, on the motion of Mr. Hayne, supported by the other defendants. Mr. Board then proceeded at some length to recapitulate the items of the balance-sheet com plained of as being false, and amongst these were the following :—That it was stated that up to the 30th June shares had been issued to the amount of £2.5,800, whereas the issue ought to have been stated at £35,000, a portion having been issued to a large creditor of the company, who had also received bills and promissory notes from the com- pany. With respect to the revenue account, items had been published which ought to have been passed to the capital account. There were other items which would be explained by the witnesses he should call, and which he (Mr. Beard) was instructed were falsified with a view to deceive. Ho should be glad if the defendants could offer a satisfactory explanation. Mr. Rayne bad been the chairman of the company, and the other defendants were directors of the company, and if all were concerned in the preparation of the report they were all equally liable under this summons if the falsification was proved. To support the case lie had to go to, as he might say, into th© enemy's camp for evi dence, for ho must call in the first instance the present se cretary of the company. Mr. E. Eyres was then sworn, and proved that he was the secretary of the Northern Railway of Buenos Ayres Company, which had offices at No, 206, Gresham-house. The defendants were three of the directors of the company, Mr. Hayne being the chairman. They became so in the autumn of 1865, with the exception of Mr. Smith, who was elected in the spring of the present year. A general meet ing of the shareholders took place on the 17th September last, at which printed balance-sheets, signed by Mr.llayno, were published. At that meeting Mr. Leverson made a violent attack upon the directors, and called upon them to agree to refer the accounts to Messrs. Quilter, Ball and Co., which was refused on the ground that, acting under the ad vice of the solicitor of the company, the accounts had already been agreed to and passed by the meeting. There was a spe cial meeting, at which the three defendants attended, and at that meeting a proposition was made that the accounts should be referred to the firm of accountants already named, and this was rejected as on the former occasion. After detailing the number of debentures issued prior to his coming into office as secretary the witness stated that the guaranteed debenture holders were to receive 7 per r cent., and the interest due previously until the arrears were paid off before the other classes of shareholders were to be paid anything. He bad made up his accounts, not from the debenture books, but from the ledger of the com pany, the debenture books having been made up 15 months before he came into office. The examination of the witness went on to a considerable length, and involved a peculiar investigation of the accounts, which without their publi cation would scarcely be understandable to the general reader. At the close of the examination, Mr. Beard proposed an adjournment of the case for the production of other witnesses, but Mr. Murphy objected, on the ground that a serious charge, for which there was not the slightest pretence or foundation, would bo kept hanging over the heads of three gentlemen of the highest possible character and position. Before the application for an adjournment was entertained, he desired to put one or two questions to the witness now. Mr. Beard remarked that his client had not instructed him as to the details, and as he and his witnesses were not present, he was compelled to ask for an adjournment. The Lord Mayor observed that Mr. Beard's client ought not to have preferred these serious charges without being fully prepared to instruct Mr. Board to carry them out in proof, and therefore an adjournment ought not to be asked for. • Mr. Beard intimated that he had sent three times for his client—but the last messenger had returned with the in formation that lie was ill in bed. . _ Mr. Murphy then interrogated the witness, mil elicited from him that the three defendants had been elected on`re moval of the previous directors, and that their first act was the removal of the late secretary, Mr. Elborough, on the ground of his mismanagement of the books. The defendant, Sir J. C. Lees, was a retired chief justice of the Bahama Islands; Mr. Hayne, was a gentleman of fortune residing in Eaton-square ; and the third defendant, Mr. Smith, was a large railway contractor, superintending several railways in Wales. The great part of the accounts as to locomotives were made up from the returns of the company's super intendent at Buenos Ayres, and over these the directors had no control. The witness was asked whether he could find the name Mr. Fielder, the informant in this case, in any of the directories, and replied in the negative. Mr. , Murphy further elicited from the witness that the accounts were strictly correct from the accounts which came to the defendants on their accession to office. The witness was further interrogated by the Lord Mayor as to some of the items of the account, and Mr. Murphy repeated that there was not a shadow of a pretence for the charge, which Lied been got up by an almost unknown individual to fish pp information for pur poses of his own. The Lord Mayor said he was clearly of opinion that the charge was wholly untenable, and therefore he could nct for a moment entertain the notion of an adjournment of the case. The absence of the complainant corroborated the views of the learned counsel, and there was no evidence to show that the accounts complained of were false. He repeated there was not the slightest evidence to support the charge, and the summons must, therefore, be dis- Missed. 41.10.

Mr. J. L. d F e F. Graham, Mr. Ashton, and many other buyers of thorough bred stock, consequently the bidding was very spirited, and some good prices were realised. The Limber stud was first "put up," and the two sisters, Christabelle and Fern, who are severally the dams of Brahmin and Rama, brought good prices. The former, after some lively bid ding between Mr. Blenkiron, Mr. Ashton, and Mr. Came ron, was taken by the first-named for 350 gs ; but, in re spect of Rama's dam, Mr. Ashton, of the Owmby Pad docks, near Brigg, Lincolnshire, outbid all competitors, and got her cheap enough for 500 gs. Parvati, another nice-sized thick mare, in foal to Nottingham, was also t*en by Mr. Ashton cheap for 110 gs, as was also a very large and handsome half-bred mare by Professor Buck, for whom he had to give 150 gs, as two other Lincoln yeomen came from the Fens specially to buy her. Suttee, a mare by Cheddington (son of Lanercost) . out of Christabelle, being on the small side, went cheap, as Mr. Parsons got her for 28gs.

The Duke of Beaufort'S lot comprised Lord 7 o '4- land,.Rinderpost, Charming May, Mr. Pitt, 'and S b 4 Lord Zetland was at first sent back to his stable, nn e bi being made for him, but on its being announced that there d was no reserve on any of his grace's horse that was subse quently sold to Mr. Baker fur 50 gs. Rinderpest and Charming May were sold under Lord Exeter's cuaditions, _but they fetched a mere bagatelle, 30 gs and 25 Ks, they fo:nior being taken by.

Siberia, though the winner of the One Thousand last year, "hung fire" for some time; but at length Lord Falmouth bid 100 gs, which got her fur his lordship very cheap indeed, as she is a large roomy mare that ought to do well at the stud. Mr. Pitt, who appeared to b 3 as sound on his legs as the day he was put in training, looked very thin in condition, but as it was known he was parted with for " making a noise," he only went to 70 gs, which Mr., Clayton gave for him. Glendale, owing to his soundne s s, and to his being shaped to get across the country, wam bid for with great spirit, and was eventually knocked down to Mr. J. Nightingall for 300 gs, and in such experience a hands he is sure to make a first-class steeplechase horse. Among the others sold were Adelina. and Rattler. 'The former, it will be recollected, was bought by Mx. J. B. Morris for 700 gs when a yearling, but she was never brought to the starting-post, and though now in foal to Canary—a very good cross —she brought but 100 gs, an d goes to join Mr. Jackson's stud at Fairfield. Rattler, w h o is the making of a s pl en did par k horse, was bid for wi•ay. groat spirit, but eventually fell to Lord Vivian for 120 gs. The Fyfield lot sent up for disposal were 11 in numbe r, among whom were Staghound, Captain Kidd, Dulcimer, and Bradamante, all of whom looked remarkably well, bu t the bidding for none of the quartette having reached they reserved price they returned to their boxes unsold. The remainder were so indifferent looki ng that nothing brought the " three figures" except th 3 filly by Leamington, out of Splitvote, whom Mr. Graham bought for 150 gs.

There was a very large gathering of north and south countrymen last night at 11. Kelley's, " The Bells," Putney, to witness the last deposit of £25 a-side in the match which takes place on Thursday next for £2OO a-side, from Putney to Mortlake, between Robert Chambers, of Newcastle-on- Tyne, ex-champion, and Joseph Sadler, of Putney, both landsmen. A couple of hours before the time appointed the house was crowded with aquatic celebrities, among the Northerners being Messrs. W. Blakey, J. H. Baird, John Leithead, John Gilton,W. Thompson, W. Oldham, Harvey Nicholls, H. Clasper, and J. 11. Clasper ; and the London representatives were Hoare and Wise, of Hammersmith ; Messrs. Hipkins, Roddy, M'Mahon, R. Clay, C. Bush, Tom King, John Phelps, Henry Kelley, C. Willcox, and others. Mr. Leithead put down £25 for Chambers and . Kelley did the like f or hi s man , Ch am b ers receiving £25 for expens es . B o th were present, and very well. The Newcastle party offered tc take 2 to 1, but the Londoners offered £lOO to £BO to any amount, one " Cockney" offer ing to take 7 to 4. The men, by their representatives, then agreed to shut the race higher up the river than usual, so that the steamers in company might be enabled to take up their moorings at Putney Aqueduct behind the men. It was then publicly stated by Kelley that the men would not start without the steamers were well moored astern, so that they might have a fair race and no favour—not to be hampered, as compe titions always are; so the public will see no race onThurs day without steamboat captains attend to these orders. Mr. Bush was in the chair, and in a neat speech hoped there would bo no unpleasantry, and that the batter mark would win. XA RICE TS. --This - Day. ~•--_ 11A Y.

TEA.—The market has remained very quiet, inquiry having been checked by the large quantity to be offered at public sale to-day. SUGAR. —There has been a steady demand, and a fair business has been done at fully late rates. Refined goods continue in good demand, at former values. COFFEE.—The transactions have bees to a fair extent, and holders generally demand full rates for both plantation and native Ceylon. RlCE.—There is a fair demand, but the high prices still demanded by holders in a great measure check. business. TALLOW.—The tallow market has been very quiet throughout the week, with but a small business doing, th . e demand from the trade having been slack. The na•vigA_ tion at St. Petersburg has now closed, and there are about 18,000 casks to come into this port ; some portion of this is still in the hands of the importers. The accounts from the Black Sea lead to the belief that the quantity of tallow likely to come from that quarter will be considerably less than was anticipated, the Continent having diverted a large portion of the supply. At St. Petersburg business was doing for next August at 50 silver roubles ; the ex-- change was firm at 310. Quotations remain steady at 445. for new Y.C. on the spot, 435. 6d. to 435. 9d. for old ; 41s. is demanded for all the year's, 41s. 6d. January to March, and 13s. for March. There are hardly any `sorts" in the market ; 455. 61 is asked for South American and town tallow; 435. :31. net cash. A novel scheme (says a Scottish correspondent) has just been propounded at Edinburgh by the Rev. Francis Johnstone, for the establishment of a " Divinity Hall for working men." Or rather, although at first announced as being for " work ing men," it turns out on further explanation that it is for " laymen"—for men of all profes sions, and of all ages, to whom the existing Divinity Halls are not properly available. The proposed ball is to Le thrown open to all sects and denominations, and to embrace the study of all sorts of theological questions—also the study of the Scriptures iu the Greek and Hebrew languages. The most notable feature of the proposed Divinity Hall is that it is to be thrown open also t o women. were [ c , of ror f the r. G. atia
