MONEY MARKET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE, TWELVE O'CLOCK. No essential alteration is apparent to-day in the general condition of the money market. There is still a steady and growing demand for commercial purposes, and agricultural requirements, now that the harvest has set in with some activity, are expected to create a little more activity in monetary circles. heavy settlements arc impending at the Stock Exchange, owing to the recent operations in Console, the New Threes, and other descriptions of Government securities. Day by day large quantities of stock are withdrawn on account of investors, who find it inexpedient to seek for greater interest and for better security in other quarters. The funds are advancing, besiles, all things considered, they are worth more than the figure at which they are quoted. There upward tendency is also communicated by the scarcity of stock, and the erroneous views of the speculators for a decline, the operations of whom have committed themselves so heavily that two jobbers on the house have this morning been forced to declare themselves unable to provide for their liabilities. It would not create surprise if further disasters immediately followed, so wild have been the attempts made by excessive sales to depreciate values, in spite of numerous circumstances promis ing much greater prosperity in the general condition of the country. With the assurances of the 3loniteur with regard to Prussia, and the progress of the Reform Bill, together with more settled advices from New York, politics at home and abroad have now become as favourable as could be expected. As in the Cousol department, so in the markets for foreign banks, railway shares, and in the various miscellaneous descriptions, heavy 'oases have been incurred by recent dealing, the fluctuation having been considerable during the last fortnight. In many of the railway shares the movement has ranged from 5 to 10 per cent., and suspensions are therefore likely to -ensue, notwithstanding the plethora of money, and the consequent easy terms upon which accommodation can be obtained. There were no gold operations at the Bank of England yesterday. Atlantic and Great Western Railway Deben tures remain steady, at 24 26 ; and the Consolidated Mortgage Bonds, at 24 22i. At the meeting held to-day of the London and Blackwall Railway Company, the directors reported that the rent for the half-year ending 30th June last had been received, and that a dividend for that period, at the rate of £4 10s. per annum, should be declared, payable on the 14th instant. The traffic returns on the Melbourne and Hob son's Bay United Railway, for the week ending 30th May last, was £1,633 against £2,103 in the corresponding week in 1866 ; week ending 6th June, £3,083 against £3,749 ; week ending 13th June, £1,742 against £2,073 ; and for the week ending 20th June, £1,897 against £2,353 in the corresponding week of 1866. At the meeting held to-day of the London and South Western Bank the report of the directors for the half-year ending 30th June last, was presented. The directors recommended that a dividend be de clared at the rate of 5 per cont. per annum, free of income-tax, and that the balance of £BBl, includ ing £516 rebate on bills not due, be carried to profit and loss new account. In the Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets during the last few days there has again been very little business entered into. Sugar, however, has in most instances maintained former rates. In China tea the dealings have been unimportant, but sales of Indian produce, to the extent of about 10,000 pack ages, are'announced. Rice ',has continued to sup port full rates, as also superior qualities of coffee, cocoa, and spices. In tallow there has been very little variation as regards quotations for either present or forward delivery. Two o'CLocK. According to Reuter's telegram from Paris to day, the French Rentes were 61f. 82c. Very firm. The improvement in the English Funds has con tinued, but the advance is only 3-16th, though all the markets are firm, with an upward tendency, especially Consols, which are 94/ 95 for money, and 95 4 for the account.

WORCESTER, Aug. 10.—This has been a week of great excitement in the hop trade. On this market values have daily changed considerably, making the advance on 1866's since our last report equal to 25s per cwt. We never knew held at this period, both by planters and the trade, so limited a stock of hops, the total being a mere nothing as in compari son with the stock on hand in some years at this time ; which holders arc well aware of, making them sanguine that we are to witness much more enhanced rates as we approach nearer the picking season, when the public will be better able to realise the true condition of the new growth. Present Currency—litough 1866 Worces ters £lO 15s. to £ll 55., fine ditto £ll 10 to £l2, very choice £l2 125., all per cwt., cash, at the scale. With but few exceptions, planters speak most de spondingly of the growing crop, which, if anything, is worse than when we wrote last. The frosty nights in the early part of the week have checked the burr, it makes no progress ; and this materially lessens the chances of the yield on. the good grounds. The Herefordshire accounts are worse than our own; and there cannot be much doubt now but, under the most favourable circumstances, the crop of hops picked in this district will be very small indeed. With the exception of the Valley of the Froome, the pick of hops this year in this county hardly deserves the name of a crop. Of course, there are exceptions here and there, where hops will be grown ; but these are but a few favoured spots. AYLESFORD.—We find but slight improvement here. The plant looks burnt up, and we fear the hops are beyond all Lope of recovery.

(Before Mr. Commissioner Kerr). PHILLIPS V. AHHAHAms.--This was a judgment summons against a married woman who is living with her husband, the facts being probably of an unprecedented character.—Defendant and her hus band are living together, he carrying on a public house, and she conducting a clothes business in another place. Some dispute arose between plain tiff and Mr. Abrahams in reference to a particular transaction, and she was sued personally. At the time of the trial it was decided that although she was a married women, she could, in accordance with a well-known statute, be stied as a . fenie sole, having carried on trading in the City of London. his Honour found a verdict for the plaintiff, aad as Mrs. .Abrahams had not paid the money a judgment sununons was issued. '[his morning Mr. Abrahann appearelas the agent of the defendant, his wife, and informed his honour that defendant, was unable to appe:tr in consequence Plaintiff said that defendant was well able to pay he money. The husband—She does not owe it. His Honour—lt is too late to say that now. A verdict has already passed for the plaintiff. Plaintiff—Why Mr. Abrahatns can well afford to pay ; he has a publichouse. Tho husband—All my people are paid at the publichouse. I can pay 20s. in the pound. I have nothing to do with this debt. His Honour—ls your wife so ill that she cannot leave the house? The husband—She is, and any of the bailiffs can soon be satisfied upon the subject. His Honour—This case must be adjourned—too ill to attend. Plaintiff--The husband can pay and so can she. His Honour—You should be careful how you ,rust married women.' POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day, FATAL ENCOUNTER.—WiIIiam Mahoney was charged with causing the death of. Edward Evans. William Williams stated that ho was in a publichouse in Herbert's-passage with the prisoner, Evans being there also. Evans had been drinking at different publiehousos during the whole of the day, and was therefore in a state of intoxication. A short time before the quarrel com menced the deceased was lying asleep on the bench near the bar. On Mahoney waking him up he said, "Why, Ted, I thought you was dead." lie then ordered some beer, and having paid for it offered it to Evans to drink. He had no sooner done so than ho soomerto take a sudden dislike to Mahoney, and after some violent abuse, he (Evans) called Mahoney a monkey, and said he would fight ton such as he. Mahoney treated the matter with the utmost indifference until Evans began pushing him about, and finally bonneted him. Mahoney told him not to destroy his hat, but Evans continued to act in such a vicious manner, and to provoke Mahoney so much, that at last they went to the Thames Em bankment with the intention of fighting it out, Mahoney all the time saying he did not want to fight. Evans wouldinsist on Sighting, and, taking up a position, he attempted to strike Mahoney, but he rather warded off the intended blows than to return them. Evans, finding ho could not roach Mahoney's face then made a run at his legs, and succeeded in throwing him down. On attempting to repeat it a se cond time, Mahoney struck out at Evans, knockod hint down, and then went away, leaving him lying on the embankment. A number of the bystanders went up, and, on raising the man, found him, to all appearances, so helplessly drunk as to be quite incapable of walking. The police then arrived, when a stretcher was sent for, and ho was conveyed to the Station house, where it was discovered ho was dead. Mr. Flowers, on hearing the evidence, remanded the defendant until Monday next, in order that the Coroner might hold the inquiry into all the circumstances connected with the case. The prisoner was liberated on his own recognisancos. UNDER THE BED.—llobert Spencer, of Compton-street, wa s charged with being found in a Soho, bodro oi Ns n 'a a te t h t m he al r u'r residence of Mr. Johnston, the proprietor of the Morning herald and Standard newspapers, 31, Montague-street, Russell-sqare, supposed for an uula w ful purpose. Mr. Abrams, defended. It appeared that between 12 and 1 o'clock this morning Mr. and Mrs. Johnston, leaving boon out for the evening, returned somewhat unexpectedly, and discovered that there was a strange noise iu the house. The bedroom of ono of the servants was found locked, and it was with some difficulty that Mr. Johnston got the door open. The prisoner was found undressed, and concealed under tho hod, upon which his clothes had been placed. The prisoner stated that be had come to visit ono of the servants, who asked him to stay, as the master and the mistress were out for the evening, and who were not expected home until late. They camp, however, sooner than sho antici pated, so she told him to conceal himself in her bedroom. Mr. Abrams said there was no doubt that the young man had no right on the promises, but ho was a very re spectable tradesman, and had not been in the house for any unlawful purpose in the moaning of the Act, but simply to visit the servant. Mr. Flowers said that was often the way with servants, that they no sooner got into a good place than they did something wrong or foolish to get themselves out again. Probably the excuse was true, as far Gs' it wont ; but if servants began by letting mon into their masters' houses to visit them, it was natural to apprehend that they might end by admitting them for other purposes. At all events he should adjourn the case to ascertain the truth of the statement as to the defendant's respectability. Subsequently the prisoner's brother attended, and con sented to become bail for his good behaviour. Mr. Flowers (to the prisoner)—Then I will take your own recognisance for £lO, and your brother's for £2O, for your future good behaviour. At the same time what you have done is very serious. Many robberies aro committed in that way, though I don't say that you had any such puaposo. The girl, of courso, will lose her situation. ho would kill all of them before the' night was out. He immediately struck her in the face, and knocked her down. She was cut and bruised about, and ho struck her with a chair. Her other son then assaulted her, and when her husband and daughter came to her assistance they wore likewise badly treated. The youngest son (Thomas) fre quently beat her, and between them they broke all the things in the place, and they were broken now. In cross-examination she denied assaulting either of them. She knew nothing about the half-sovereign. Thomas declared that they often stole his money. He never assaulted anybody, but only took the shovel away from his mother. The father would not appear against them, and the sister was not present. They wore ordered to find each a surety in £lO to ap pear on Thursday next. IRELAND. DUBLIN, Aug. 12. The coroner's jury in the case of the Bray accident have achieved the rare distinction of completing in one day an inquiry which it was thought would be protracted. Their verdict is substantially a confirmation of the judgment at which the public had already instinctively arrived—that the disaster arose from a defect in the permanent way. They were unable to offer any opinion as to what the pre cise- nature of the defect was, and this renders it the more desirable that a full investigation should be held by a Government officer unfettered by local interests and responsible for the efficient discharge of his duties. The history of the accident was quickly disposed of by the evidence of one or two respect able witnesses. Mr. Henry Ebbs, solicitor to a grand jury of the county of Wicklow, deposed that before the train came to Bray-head the pace was slackened, as is usual. About three perches from the bridge he felt the first shock, and the first-class carriage in which he sat, which was in the middle of the train, got off the rails after bumping for a little. He looked over the bridge and saw what had hap pened. He recognised Murphy of Tinahely, lying quite dead beside the engine. He remarked that the new T or flange rail had been laid down,joining the old rails, and that while both rails were per fectly even at the top the old railway projected fur ther at the bottom. He believed that the engine was off the line before his carriage, but was not sure. Daniel Smith, a signalman, saw the train coming on very cautiously, and gave the signal "All right." Some repairs had been made the previous evening a little beyond the bridge. He could not say if the men did anything with the repairs that evening. The night mail from Enniscorthy and two other trains had passed over before the acci dent. The men were at their breakfast when the accident occurred. The down train to Enniscorthy passed over the line ten minutes before the acci dent occurred. He had not examined the rails, because that portion of the line was not in his charge. William Cosgrave, a platelayer, deposed that he had been putting rails down at the place on the previous day, and dideverything that was necessary to be done. Was there on Friday night, when an engine and another train ran off at the same points. In reply to Mr. Clay, attorney for the next of kin, the witness stated that he did not put new timbers under the rails which he had laid. Simon Carty, a " gaffer," or milesman, who was in charge of the " length" in which the accident occurred, said he had inspected the place before the train came up, and that 11 trains had passed over from the time the rails bad been relaid. He examined the line for the passing of the first train in the morning, but not afterwards until after the accident. In cross-exa mination, he said that since the accident the rails bad been lowered at the place where it took place. That had not been done by direction of the engi neer, but by witness and the " walking gaffer." They found out that the rails were too high, and he thought it was likely that was the cause of the acci dent. If they had been properly laid it would not have occurr ed. He had received instructions from the engineers not to disturb the rails after the acci dent, and had been suspended in consequence of disobeying them. Edward M'Donnell, the signal man in charge of the place, swore that he had in spected it 15 minutes before the accident. He did - not think one side of the rails was higher than the other. Police-constable John Hans gave evidence as to the engine of the second up train going off the lino at the same place on Friday evening. It was stopped in half a minute, and he observed that the two leading wheels were off the rails at the lefthand side.- This closed the examination of witnesses, and the jury, after deliberating for 20 minutes, found that the accident which caused the death of the de ceased " occurred from some defect in the perma nent way," adding, " but we have not sufficient evidence to show what that defect was." No addi tional deaths are reported, but the fate of two or three of the sufferers is trembling in the balance. Airs. Williams, of Streamtoun, Newcastle, lies in the International Hotel in a very precarious state. She is in a condition which renders her case the more distressing. Mr. Jordan lies in the Loughliutown workhouse, with but slight hopes of her recovery. Corney, the butler of Mr. Acton, has suffered severe spinal injuries. Miss Cummins, J. Kavanagh, J. Keenan, and Mr. and Mrs. Bloven, of Armagh, are in the International Hotel, danger ously hurt. All the others, includi n g M ur phy and Lane, the driver wad stoker, are doing well. The adjourned assizes of Kerry, specially devoted to the trial of Fenian prisoners, terminated on Sa turday. Three of the principals in the February movement were brought up to receive sentences. The first put forward was Captain Moriarty, as he called himself, but whose real name is Mortimer Shea. He was arrested on his way to Cahirc iveen with despatches from O'Connor, the Fenian General, whosince escaped after shooting the policeman. The captain was tried on Thursday, and found guilty. Ur. Justice Kheogh, in passing sentence, denounced with characteristic vigour and earnestness the cowardly and abominable conduct of O'Connor and his confederates. He observed that those who came over from foreign slioras to disturb the tranquillity of the country, and delude the unfortunate people who were simple-minded enough to be seduced by their misrepresentations, were entitled to no sym pathy, and he felt none for them. They must be de terred by adequate punishment—punislim3ut that will certainly be inflicted—from engaging in similar enterprises. Ho sentenced the prisoner to 10 years' penal servitude. Noonan, who took the desperate leap from a railway train to escape from custody, but was recaptured and convicted on Friday last, was next placed at the bar. He had been recom mended to mercy on the ground that he did not ap pear to have been a ringleader, and the learned judge stated that on consideration of that circumstauce he had reduced his punishment to seven years' penal servitude. The fact that ho was in a comfortable condition of life, with the prospect of independence and wealth before him, and that he bad abanne it to take part in the conspir ac y , made his gu do ilt, in his lordship's judgment, the more h e inous, and if it had not been for the interposition of the jury be would have imposed the same p u nishment astwo iothern the case of Moriarty.

ISPEC TS. Last week opened with a breezy fine day, wind N.W. Monday proved fine, but was thick at times, and threatening. Tuesday was a very wet day, put iug a complete stop to harvest work ; wind S.IV., thermometer 65 deg., barometer -29.80 in. Our ad vices on that day were as under :—From the West Riding of Yorkshire, " The weather on Saturday and Sunday was summerlike and forcing, but yes terday and to-day have been dull and showery, with a medium temperature, which will suit the root crops generally, and not do much harm to standing grain. The hay crop is nearly all secured. Potatoes are complained of in this district, but I hope thi disease is not wide-spread." From the East Riding it was stated : " w.lier on the whole has been favourable for the growing crops, but harvest is not likely to commence in earnest for at least 14 or 21 days, under the most faveurable circumstances ; of course early patches may be cut sooner, but we speak now of general harvest. We again repeat that the wheat, crop is not likely to turn out nearly so productive as was anticipated some time ago, although with favourable weather the quality may prove fine." From Suffolk " Reaping has com menced in some fields of early white wheat ; but harvest will not be general for 10 days longer. From the best judgment wo can bring to bear upon the question of the yield of the crop, we feel persuaded our district will not yield an average crop, while the quality will mainly depend upon the weather during the next month. Barley is a full average acreage ; at one time, it promised so badly that we feared it would be lost. The rains of July greatly revived it, and we now look for a moderate yield, say about one-fifth less than on average seasons ; while the quality, from the great bulk of it being laid and the weeds growing up among it, will be coarser than could be desired. Beans are a large crop, and promise unusual abundance, a great fact for our graziers, who c onsume.all they grow. Peas do not promise so well as to yield. Potatoes are badly spoken of, and disease has appeared in many places." Some slight rain fell at 9 a.m. on Wednesday, which was showery up to noon, with some smart rain occasionally afterwards, and the night unsettled. No harvest work, where such was the case, could be a ccomplished. From the east coast of Scotland it was remarked : " We have had a week of favour able weather for our growing crops." On the west coast : " The weather has continued favourable." On Thursday showers fell from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., but afterwards the day became sunny and more promis ing, with a higher t em perature. Our advices were — From the coast of S uffolk : " We had fine weather up to Tuesday morning last, when it was wet all day, yesterday we had light showers, but to-day is dry, although cloudy. Thus far, from the very dry season we have lately had in this district, the rain has done us good, but we have now had quite enough, and shall rejoice to see bright, dry, w arm, -ripening weather. A chance piece of Talavera wheat is cut round us, but harvest has made slow progress, and will not be general here before the 19th inst. ; even with fine dry favourable weather we cannot look for a moderate supply of new wheat before September." From Warwickshire on the same day : " Until Mo nday evening, weather in this district continued fine, but sunless. Monday night we had heavy rain, Tuesday showers with more rain at night, Wednes day and to-day mostly fine. On the whole it is very unfavourable for harvest operations, and sadly re tards the ripening of the corn crops, whilst farmers are looking most anxiously for some hot sunny weather." From Buckinghamshire : " The crops are much laid in consequence of the heavy rains, and on the deep heavy land much blight is to be seen, and the quality and quantity must be very variable. Reaping will be pretty general next week—little has been cut up to the present time. Spring-sown oats are very:green. The harvest will be a long, dragging one." Friday was a fine day, although occasionally threatening, and harvest work was proceeded with. Our advices run thus from Devonshire : " The last two days have been bright and su nn y ; but I fear the weather is not settled. Harvest is fully on, and the state of the weather for the next two or three weeks will be of the utmost importance. Considerable complaint is now made by farmers as to the damage done by rain and rust : the a mount of 108.3 on anticipated crop of wheat during the last fortnight being from five to ten b u shels per acre. lam by no means sure that this will be found correct. I am still hopeful for the crop of wheat, it it bo well saved." From the West Riding of Yorkshire our advices stated " Since Tuesday the weather, thoug h unsettled, has not bee n mischievous ; a few days of alnny weather would alter the appearance of the crops materially and has bring un on h arv est quickly ;in fa ct, wheat cutting beg in this neighbourhood in an isolated case or From Lincoln shire : " Harvest has not yet com menced in this distri ct ; but may partially begin in a week, though g enerally we are yet a fortnight off. The grain appears to be filling well, and with fine weather a good quality may be looked for, especially of barley. There are, however, sonic casesof mildew in th ew heat, which when they hb occur m ust do mischief." The Essex, in the neig hood of Maldon : " wea ther since our last has generally been cool and cloudy,with some days very wet. Under such circumstances our grain crops ripen slowly, and harvest is necessarily delayed." From Norfolk, in the neighbourhood of Downham Market : " We have had some rough weather this week, and I fear our wheat crop is taking harm." Saturday was a fine sunny day, and much harvest work would be well accomplished in all the early districts, farmers being most anxious to gat on now that the time has arrived when great progress should be made. The week closed with a good prospect as regards the weather, thebarometer being steadily rising, and appearances more f a vourable. -- Murk Lane Express of yesterday. SHARE LlST—This Day.

CHARGES of WIFE - BEATING.—Robort Coleman, a young man, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with assaulting his wife Emma, and also with assaulting floury Dawson, 301 A, and damaging his hat. The complainant, a respectable-looking young woman, working at Messrs. Grosso and Blackwell's, stated that the prisoner was her husband, and having been out of work some time she had to work to keep him. On Saturday last, on going home, the priaouer, who had undertaken to clean up the place, told her to move tho child or ho would knock her down, and on her expostulating with him, ho com menced striking her on the back of the head and arms, had her eye blackened, and she was covered with bruises. In answer to Mr. Tyrwhitt, the complainant said her husband was a smith's labourer. Police-constable Henry Dawson, 301 A, said that on telling that ho had a warrant to apprehend him, and the charge against him, he said "I am-- if 1 will go without fighting for it," and set to striking and kicking him; and on another constable ooming to his assistance the prisoner struck and kicked him also. Bo closed with the prisoner, and fell with him and damaged a hat of the value of 15s. In reply to Mr. Tyrwhitt, the witness said the prisoner was quite sober. Police- constable 734 A proved being assaulted by the prisoner. The prisoner said if he struck his wife it was by accident. As for assaulting the police that was not true ; the officers assaulted him, and ono of them threatened him with a good hiding. va police. fined him 20s. or Mr. Tyrwhitt ord ered the P riso ner to find a b ail in £lO toll days s p ftuhreepaocahcooftothwe assaultsardshis rife,on the and THAUES. l c a li st ar i g ii e g d h t.

Mr. Paget said the prisoner was only charged on the police sheet with being drunk and disorderly. The policeman admitted he said nothing about the as sault at the station-houso last night. Mr. Paget said it was the duty of every constable to state the whole charge at the station-house, and not keep anything back. It would be productive of great inconve nience if ono charge was mentioned at the station-house and another before the ina,gistrato at the police-court. lle was in the practice of inflicting severe penalties on all persons assaulting the police officers, who had very difficult and dangerous duties to perform. If the charge of assault had been stated at the station-house and entered on the police-sheet ho would have gone into it, and unless the prisoner had a good defence would have sent him to prison. Under tho circumstances he should not enter into too charge of assault, He discharged the prisoner, WESTMINSTER. VIOLENT ASSAULTS UPON A FATHER AND MOTHER. — Patrick Carey and Thomas Carey, the latter of whom has been convicted for assaults on the police, were charged with assaulting Bridget and William Carey their father and mother. Bridget Carey, whose face was strapped up and covered with contusions, said—Last evening her two sons came home when sho was out, and sent her daughter to say that Patrick had left a half-sovereign in his coat pocket, and it was gone.

The thief was captured ou the following day, and was duly executed without further ceremony,— Cambridge Independent. Needles were first made in London by a negro from Spain, in the reign of Queen Mary. He died with out imparting the secret of his art. The art was recovered in 1565. Elias Growse first taught the English to make needles, but the art was again lost for nearly a century, when it was again recovered by Christopher Greening, who settled at Long Crondon, in Buckinghamshire. Needles are now chiefly made at Redditch, in Worcester shire, Hathersage, in Derbyshire, and in and near Bir mingham. Some years ago 100,000,000 needles a week were made in Redditch.

An atrocious crime was committed at Belper, Der b ys hire, on Sunday morning , by a young milk man named Spendlove. In the course cf Rev. his usua Mr l b us iness he called a t the house of the . Lloyd, Unitarian minister, and delivered the milk on the slab in the entrance-ball, Mrs. Titterton, aged sixty, the housekeeper, being present.

She fell on to the floor of the entrance hall, the sho t hav i ng penetrated through her stays into her left breast and left arm. As the family were from home at the times here was no one on the spot to raise an alarm. pendlove coolly went out of the house and walked acroEs the street to the e resid delivered some ence of Mr. Brown, tailor and draper, where h pass age and t hen hid the pistol under m ilk in the the door mat. Ile then went down King-street at a rapid pace, but afterwards returned to Mr. Brown's, removed the pistol from under the door mat, and again set off. lie has not been seen since. Some persons e re the huse and found Mrs. Tit team' lying nte in t d he entrance hall, bleeding from the wounds, and Mr. Johnston, surgeon, extracted the shot from her arm. Ile does not anticipate any fatal results from the wounds, but the shock to the old lady's system is so great that she lies in a pre carious state. Spendlove, after the outrage, took the road to Derby, and although the police were quickly on his track, up to noon yesterday he had not been taken. Not the slightest reason can be assigned for the perpetration of this foul outrage beyond the fact that for a year or two Spendlove has devoted his leisure hours to reading " The Life of Dick Turpin," " Jack Sheppard," &c. Ile is 18 years old. DISCOVERY OF A NEW COAL BED IN NOTTS.— For some months past borings for coal have been made on the estate of Sir R. Clinton, and on Friday they proved successful.
