FRANCE The Estafette states that General Rulliere, Minister of War, had suspended the distribution of the 300 decorations which Pius IX. intended to bestow on the officers and soldiers of the French expedition. AUSTRIA. Georgey's surrender was known at Comorn on the 18th ult., and a written summons was sent to the gar ison, either to follow his example or to send in their terms of capitulation. The answer given on the 19th was as follows : " We must reply to the summons of the General of Brigade, V. Liebler, by statigg that no official commu nication as to the position TE siffairo near the Lower Danube and in the Banat had reached us, and until we know what has taken place there General V. Liebler will see that we cannot, without incurring the charge of treachery to the fatherland, consent to treat. " In the name of the Council of War, " KLAPKA." On the 20th the Austrians advanced along the right bank of the Danube, and the parley was con tinued between the garrison and an Austrian and a Russian staff-officer. The result of this was that it was agreed to suspend hostilities for a fortnight. The Wiener Zeitung states on the authority of a let*er of the 25th from Semlin, that Kossuth, Bern, and Dembinski were at Alt Orsova, under the pro tection of the Pasha (Bev) there. An article in the Wiener Zeitung declares that Venice, as a free port, has always been an emporium for smugglers, who thence inundated the Lombardo- Venetian kingdom with foreign manufactures. The article bodes no good to Venice. VIENNA, AUG. 30.—The negotiations relative to the surrender of Comorn have been without any de finite result up to this time. One party in the garrison obstinately refuse to surrender, while a great part have left the fortress and laid down their arms at Gran. Should a regular siege be decided upon, the Danube would be closed to commerce, which would occasion very considerable loss. On the other hand, it is reported that the gar rison has requested permission to quit the fortress, and obtain passports to foreign countries. The Prussian Stant& Anzeiger, of the 2d September, says—" Reports from Comorn state, that Prince Paul Esterhazy has been seen on the left bank of the Danube, in the neighbourhood of Nagy Sarlo, with some superior Russian officers, and that he had given the inhabitants of that neighbourhood hopes of a speedy termination of hostilities. So much is cer tain, that the arrival of 20,000 Russians has been announced at Neutra, and that preparations have been made for their reception." PEST a, AUG. 28.—Field-Marshal General Haynau arrived here last night. Kossuth, Dembinski, Messaros, sec., on their arrival in Turkey, were stopped at Adakele to perform quar rantine. The Pasha, on being informed of this, ordered them to be set at liberty, and provided car. riages for them to proceed to Constantinople. The TViener Zeitung states that Bern has reached Turkey. WEST INDIA and PACIFIC MAILS. G SOUTHAMPTON ' T UESD AY MORNIII . —The Royal - Mail steam ship, Dee, Captain Allen, has just arrived hers with the usual West India and Pacific mails, in charge of Lieutenant Davies, R N., AddiValty agent. The Dee has experienced fresh head-winds during her run from St. Thomas. She brings on freight 964,951 dollars, of which 600,000 are in gold dust from California. We have voluminous accounts and correspondence by this arrival from all parts of the West Indies, Pacific, California, Spanish Main, &c. From Grey Town (Mosquito) we learn that the town of Nicaragpa had been destroyed by the rebel chief Somosa, who had also been to the port of San Carlos and carried off the arms and ammunition. It was rumoured Somosa intended to attack the British settlement of San Juan, Nicaragua, but was pre vented by want of boats. The insurrection in the interior prevented the usual arrivals of cochineal for shipment At Carthagena the population had been seriously thinned by the cholera; but at the Dee's departure the disease was sensibly abating. Provisions were very scarce. Our advices from Jamaica are to the 7th ultimo, inclusive. The heat was very great, and several cases of sick ness had occurred, dysentery being very prevalent. The elections continued favourable to the popular cause of retrenchment. There were favourable prospects for the 1850 crop. Business was very depressed, and the import mar ket inundated with immense supplies. Sugar was still scarce, and quoted 163. to 203. per 100 lb. Rum dull. Exchange-60 days, 1 per cent. premium; 30 days, 11 per cent. premium ; merchant bills, 90 days, par ; exchange on New York, 4 per cent. premium ; American gold, 4 per cent. premium; Spanish gold, 2 per cent. From Barbadoes we learn that the sugar crop was nearly manufactured, and would exceed 33,000 tons, generally of superior quality. The weather was so sc•azonable, and such a spread of canes had been planted, that a crop of 40,000 tons was expected in 1850. The population was quiet, orderly, and industri ous, and the island perfectly healthy, a favourable contrast, says a correspondent, with the present position of Demerara and J ama i ca . I n T r i n id a d , up to the 6th of August, the weather was very favourable, and the crops would amount to 28,000 hogsheads. The crop of 1850 would scarcely equal the present year on account of many estates having been abandoned. Grenada was healthy; exports would a trifle exceed 5,000 hogsheads. Prospects for the next crop good. In St. Vincent, up to the Bth of August, the crop was much retarded by the prevailing sickness. Many estates were backward, and it was doubted if some would be able to reap their crops. The crop of the Danish island of St. Croix had fallen very short from excessive drought, and the pro - Teets for next crop were very bad. We have accounts from San Francisco up to the 2J of July, the latest yet received from California, and at that time everything- was quiet in Upper California ; the water in the mountain streams had subsided, and the difficulties whiA had previously existed in the collection of gold were in a great measure disappearing. It was estimated that the mines would this year produce 25,000,000 dollars, provided that ordinary health and quiet continued. From Panama we are informed that the Isthmus will be free to the transit of all nations on and after the Ist of January. Vessels from American ports were obliged to per form a quarantine of eight days at Chagrea; there were 114 vessels of all flags lying at the different ports on the coast of California, most of them without crews. -- - Seamen's wages were 150 dolls. per month. Freight from Panama and San Francisco 50 dolls. per ton ; passage, 400 dolls. The Dee performed a quarantine of five days at Port Royal, in consequence of having communicated with Carthagena. The West Indian squadron was generally healthy, but amongst the troops in Jamaica dysentery had appeared, which it was feared was the precursor of cholera. In Demerara business was very dull and the wea ther extremely unfavourable. The constant rains have almost wholly destroyed the crop, endangering also those of next year. The accounts from Hayti are of a very distressing character, President Soulouque having ordered many of his superior officers to be shot ; amongst others General Similien. After these revolting and sangui nary measures, the British and American Consuls came forward and protested against so wanton a sacrifice of human life, and succeeded in saving seven teen unfortunate persons from destruction. REVIEW OF MARKETS. (From De Cordova's Mercantile lntelligeneer.) The general depressi on of every ieterest throughout the island has marked the business of the fortnight pre ceeding the August holidays with increased dullness. There has been very little activity, and the immense supplies which shippers have so madly sent on, are assist ing to keep the market in a state of miserable stagnation. The arrivals of butter within the last few weeks have b.-en ridiculously superfluous, so much so, indeed, that we fear much of it will have either to be sent back again or thrown into the sea. Our means are so reduced at this moment, that unless importations are regulated on the most prudent scale they must result in loss. We have endeavoured for some time past to impress this fact on the minds of merchants abroad, but with little effect. We, however, reiterate the caution, because we conceive it to be our duty to do so, and the result will show, as experience has already shown, that we do not advise without reason.

LABUAN.—In a letter from a correspondent of the Friend of China, dated Labuan, 15th April, 1849, the following item is contained:—" Some more people who were held in slavery in Borneo have escaped to this place. They immediately found their way to the Lieu tenant-Governor, and great was their joy when he kindly assured them they were perfectly free, and could not be taken away again. This fact the Pangerans and Orang Cayu (rich men) studiously keep from their slaves, well knowing that, if awar e of the fact, the y would not willingly continue in bondage to them.

IMONEY MARKET.--The premium on gold at Paris is 10 per mille, which, at the English Mint price of 31. 17s. 101 d. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 25.40; and the exchange at Paris on London at short being 25.421, it follows that gold is 0.10 per cent. dearer in London than in Paris. By advices from Hamburgh the price of gold is 436 per mark, which, at the English Mint price of 31. 17s. 1011 per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 13.101; end the exchange at Hamburgh on London at short being 13.104, it follows that gold is 0.11 per cent, dearer in London than in Hamburgh. The course of exchange at New York on London is 1091 per cent., and the par of exchange between England and America being 109 23 40 per cent., it follows that the exchange is 0.07 per cent. against England; but the quoted exchange at New 1 York being for bills at 60 days' sight, the interest must be deducted from the above difference. An effort is again making at Leeds to induce the Lords of the Treasury to confer on that town tho pri vileges of a bonding port.—Yorkshire Gazette, LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 5, 1849, POLICE INTELLIGENCE,. GUILDHALL. Two inhabitants, residing in London-wall, entered the court, and in the midst of the business addressed Sir P. Laurie in an agitated manner, and wished for his inter ference to cause the removal of a coffin which was under stood to contain the body of a person who had died of cholera in the churchyard of St. Alph age, in Philip - lane, London-wall. They stated th a t th e coffin had been brought there and laid upon the ground with the lid off, there being no grave in the churchyard at the time, and it being understood that it had been removed to that place by order of the coroner of London, merely that it might be viewed by the gentlemen composing the coro ner's jury. One of the innabitants said one of his children was now ill, and he did not know how it might aggravate the disease. The people were looking out of several win dows that commanded a view of the churchyard. How long it might lay there he did not know, if something were not done to abate the nuisance. Sir P. LAURIE said the public mind was fed by the newspapers with accounts of cholera, and it frightened them into it by hundreds. He should order Roe the officer of the court to go and see the churchyard and ro port as to the facts stated. On the return of Mr. Roe, he said that from the first and second floors of the houses close to the churchyard the coffin could be t een as d escr ib ed, but not from the pathway in the street, in consequence of their being a very high wall. The lid was off, and he certainly thought that instead of exposing it in the churchyard, it might have been taken into the church. Mr. M'Lellan, one of the churchwardens, said that application had been made• to him to allow the body to be placed in the churchyard, but he positively re fused, but having occasion to go out on business, he handed the keys and corarnuuicated his views to his brother churchwarden. During his absence the ward beadle repeated the application in such a way that the churchwarden felt bound to obey the coroner; and gave up the keys. Sir P. LAURIE asked why an inquest was being held on the body? Mr. M'Lellan explained that in going round to in quire from house to house the health of the parish, he found a woman was dead whose sickness he had not heard anything of. Finding the shutters were not open as usual on Sunday, some children had pulled them open, and seen the body. As it was known her hus , band was entitled to 161 from his club, the neighbours were greatly excited, suspecting the poor woman might have been murdered. As this information was being given to him, the man came walking up the court with a pipe in his mouth, as unconcerned as if nothing had happened. Sir P. LAURIE then said he had no doubt this was a proper case for inquiry, and observed that with respect to these house-to-house visitations, it did more harm than good, as it continually reminded the tenants of the pestilence that was going abroad, and whatever trifling indisposition betel them, they were reminded that it might be the cholera. In the district where he lived the medical officer had declined to vi.it from house to house, believing that the alarm might create more mis chief than the knowledge of cases of sickness could do good. In ordinary times an inquiry of "Is anybody sick in this house?" would be harmless enough, but the people now were in such a state of excitement that it must be mischievous. He wished to know when the inquest would be held and the body removed? Mr. INPLellats said the inquest was then assembled. The jury had viewed the body in the open yard, being afraid to enter the room where the death had occurred. Sir P. LAURIE said he did not see that he could inter fere with the coroner to any purpose, as the inquest would soon be over and the body removed; but he should like the churchwarden to assure him such was the fact as soon as the jury gave their verdict. In about half an hour afterwards Mr. M'Lellan re turned to say that the jury bad given a verdict of death by cholera, and that the body had been instantly re moved to the Golden-lane burial-ground to remain until a grave could be dug. One of the applicants said that the terror of the dis ease tended much to p ro d u ce mischief, for his servant, who had b een looking out of an upper window, had sup posed she had caught the infection, and was then seriously ill, as was likewise his son. When the ward beadle was spoken to, he became very pompous and self-opiniated on the subject. Sir P. LAURIE—SO they are all by virtue of their otlice.—(Laughter ) Mr. kt'Lellan said he was exceedingly sorry his bro. ther churchwarden parted with the keys at all. The two applicants having thanked Sir P. Laurie for his prompt attention to their case, then retired. !VESTA' IN S T.E R. Edward Rees Sitzenich, late a clerk in the establish ment of Messrs. Mare, upholsterers and house agents, 21, Lower Belgrave-place, was brought up for re-exa mination, charged with embezzling upwards of 4001., re ceived by him in the transaction of their business. Mr. Ballantine attended for the prosecution, and Mr. Humphreys for the prisoner. The circumstances of the case, in which there were three distinct charges proceeded with against the pri soner, are briefly these :—The accused entered the ser vice of Messrs. Mare in January, 1847, as a clerk, his dnty particularly being to attend to the house agency department, sec those who wished to let or take houses, receive the money from the residents, and account for it to the firm. Tho Messrs. Mate let a house belonging to a gentleman named Fletcher, of Manor-house, Esher, to a Mr. Ilarris, upon a written agreement drawn by the prisoner for 300/., which was paid in three instalments, Mr. Ilarris handing the prisoner a cheque for 100/. at the time of signing the agreement in March, it being his wish to pay that sum before taking possession, a second and like amount on the 13th of July, and a correspond. ing sum on the 17(h of August, in anticipation of the instalment due in September (the present month). The first of these amounts the prisoner handed over to Mr. Fletcher, but never accounted to either of the Messrs. Mare nor the owner of the house fur the other two sums. In the third charge against the accused, his em ployers had let a house belonging to the Hon. Adolphus Liddell to a lady named Burgoyne fur 420 guineas, the term of occupancy being from the 20th of February to the end of last July. In May the prisoner handed over to Mr. Liddell the first moiety of the amount agreed upon, deducting the commission for agency ; and sub• sequently, at the expiration of the term, wrote to Messrs Mere, requesting them to receive the residue, 2201. 103. The prisoner both wrote on the 9th of August and waited upon Mr. Liddell on Wednesday fortnight, on both of which occasions he denied that he had received the money, alleging in the letter that Mrs. Burgoyne had been too ill to attend to business matters. Mr. Liddell wrote to the lady, and it was then ascertained that Mrs. Burgoyne 's butler had paid Edgar Reader, a junior clerk in Messrs. Mare's firm, the second 220/. 108. 1 on the 29th of July, which he had handed over to the prisoner, who, in writing the letters to Mr. Liddell, had done so without the knowledge or authority of his em ployers, whose names he signed. Mr. Ballantine baring called two witnesses to prove that the two last cheques of Mr. Harris and Mrs. Burgoyne had been severally paid into the banker's upon which they were drawn, asked for the committal of the prisoner for trial, at the same time observing that he felt it his duty to state that there were two other cases against the prisoners, and that in the event of proceeding with them, he would give Mr. Humphreys four or five days' notice. The witnesses in attendance were then bound over to prosecute the prisoner at the Central Criminal Court, but as there were two, whose evidence had been pre viously taken, absent, it was arranged that the prisoner should be remanded from time to time, until the 17th, on which day it is expected that the absent witnesses will be able to attend to sign their depositions, and be bound over to prosecute. Bail, upon the application of Mr. Humphreys, was refused. MURDER OF THREE CHILDREN, AND SUICIDE, BY A FATHER. On Monday morning, about half-past eleven, a most fearful tragedy took place at East-street, Ipswich, when a man named Grayson, murdered three of his male children, of the respective ages of fcur years, three years, and eight months old, by cutting their throats with a razor, and afterwards cutting his own throat with the same instrument. An inquest upon the bodies; was held in the afternoon at the Dove Inn, when it appeared, by the testimony adduced, that the father was a painter by trade, about thirty-three years old, and had been mar ried nearly ten years, the fruit of his marriage b-iing seven children. lie was always kind to his wife, fond of his children, and of particularly t em p erate h a bi ts. During the last five or six weeks, however, his appetite failed him, and he frequently ex hibit e d a s t rong tendency to despondency, arising from the cares of his large family, whom he seemed to apprehend he should not be able properly to bring up. Latterly he suffered from acute pains in his head, producing lowness of spirits, and ho sometimes was heard to say " I shall never live to get through nay- troubles." On Sunday he retired to bed, and appeared to sleep as usual ; but after breakfast yester day complained to his wife that he felt very languid and faint. Shortly after eleven o'clock Mrs. Grayson went shopping into the town, leaving her husband and children in the house; but she had not been absent more that half an hour when she heard the awful tidings of what had occurred. As soon as she returned the shecking spectacle presented itself of the four bodies lying on the ground in the front roon, with their throats cut, all dead —a razor lying between her husband's logs. It appears that no sooner had his wile left the house than the un fortunate man said to the three deceased children, who were playing in the room, " Come to me here and play in the front room, and I will give you a halfpenny each." This observation was heard by his daughter Emma, aged eight, who wns washing up platcs in the adjoining kitchen, and she in consequence left the kitchen and stood at the back door, where she saw her father take the babe in his arms and carry him into the front room, the other two children following. She then returned to the washhouse, but in a few minutes went into the front room, when sho beheld her father and three brothers lying dead on the carpet. An alarm was given, and surgical assistance instantly procured, but, of course, it was ineffectual. After a lengthened examination of several witnesses, the jury returned a verdict, that Gray son had cut the throats of Arthur, Walter, Frederick, and his own, while in a state of temporary derangement. MARLBOROUGH- STBE ET. John Veal, a noted burglar, who lately escaped from the Middlesex Hospital, where he had been confined in consequence of a serious accident which he sustained when attempting to escape from the police about ten days ago, was brought before Mr. Hardwick, having been retaken by the police yesterday morning. The prisoner, it will be recollected, was devoted, with a com panion, on the top of some houses in Argyll-street. The prisoner made his way over the tops of the houses, and entered a house, from which he leaped, and seriously injured the bones of one of his feet. His companion fell from the roof of a house, and was killed on the spot. The prisoner, it appeared, contrived to elude the vigilance of the constable who had charge of him in the hospital, and secreted himself for several days with success. Police-Inspector Whall r.nd Police-Sergeant Gray ob tained a clue to his hiding place, in Corbel-place, Brick lane, and making their way into the house by the back premises, in order to avoid an attack from a large and ferocious bull-dog kept in the passage, they took the prisoner as he was lying in bed, playing a game of cards with ono of his companions. The prisoner was remanded till Saturday, and removed for the present to the infirmary. THE BERMONDSEY MURDER. Yesterday afternoon Inspector Yates, of the M divi sion, who was bound over by the Coroner as the prose cutor of Frederick George Manning, and Maria his wife, for the wilful murder of Patrick O'Connor, at No. 3, Minver•place, Bermondsey, waited on Mr. Seeker, at the Southwark Police Court, for his sanctioe to allow a tradesman in the City to see the prisoner, in Horse monger.lane Gaol. The Inspector stated that on the afternoon of the Bth of August a man answering the description of the male prisoner called at the shop of Messrs. Eastman and Yeo, stationers, No. 100, Cheapside, and requested to leave a small air-gun, concealed in a cloth wrapper. Mr. reo was in the shop at the time, and observed that the man appeared in rather an excited state, but being particu larly engaged at the time, he made no observations to the stranger, but received the gun and deposited it be• hind his counter; and on the man promising to call for it the next morning ho left the shop. About 12 o'clock at noon (on the day of the murder) the same man called for the air-gun, which was banded to him by Mr. Yeo, and he had not seen him since. Hearing of the murder, and the particular mode in which it - was perpetrated, and observing in the newspapers the apprehension and examination of the suspected murderer, he had every reason to believe that Manning was the person who had called at his shop under the circumstances above de scribed. Mr. Yeo accordingly communicated with the police authorities, and it was at his request the present application was made, so that he might hare an oppor• tunity of seeing him. Mr. Sacker—ls it your opinion that the person who left and called for the gun is the man now i❑ custody ? Inspector Yates—From the description given to me by Mr. Yeo, I have reason to believe he is the party. Mr. Seeker (to Mr. Yeo)—Hsd you a sufficient op portunity of observing the man's features so that you might be enabled to identify him? Mr. Yeo—l had, Sir. When he called on the - morn ing of the 9th I took particular notice of him, as he was a stranger to our establishment. Mr. Seeker—Under those circumstances I shall fur nish you with an order to visit the gaol immediately, so that you may have an opportunity of pointing out the suspected person to the Inspector, if he is arnong;t the inmates of the gaol. The order of admission was accordingly made out by the chief clerk, and Mr. Yeo, accompanied by Inspector Yates, forthwith proceeded to the county gaol, where every facility was afforded them by the Governor. The male prisoners in the various wards were then mixed together, and Mr. Yeo was allowed to examine the fea tures of each minutely. After a close inspection of all present he was, however, unable to identify either of them as the man who had deposited the air-gun on his premises. They then left the prison and returned to the police court, when they informed the magistrate of their unsuccessful inquiries. Later in the day Mr. Adams, of the firm of Adams and Hellstard, pawnbrokers, of Bermondsey-street, waited on the magistrate, and produced a pair of pistols, which he said had been pledged at his shop by a person answering the description of Manning. The applicant stated that on the previous evening he was standing at his door, when be was accosted by one of the officers of the police, who asked him whether he had taken any pistols in pledge from any man during the last month. Ile (applicant) considered for some momenta, and recol lected that on the 14th of August a man called and pledged a pair of pistols for 4s. lie gave his name Frederick Jennings, and said he resided at No. 24, Morgan-square. lie then minutely examined the pistols and found one of them had recently been fired, and that the other had not been used. llis suspicions were im mediately excited, which caused him to come forward and produce them. Mr. Seeker then asked him if he had made any in quiries at the house where the man had given his address ? He replied that he had, and that the house was occu pied by a Mr. Walsh ; but that person denied all know ledge of any man of the name of Jennings. Applicant then described the person of the man who pledged the weapons, and he said that he had no such party ever lodging in his house. Mr. Seeker asked him by whom the pistols were ma nufactured ? .Alr. Adams said they had engraved upon them the name of " Blanch, Gracechurch-street." Mr. Seeker said he had better leave the discharged pistol with Inspector Yates who would make the neces• sary inquiries, and report thereon at a future period. The pistol was then marked by Mr. Adams, and handed over to the inspector. In the course of the day Mr. Binns, as solicitor on the behalf of Manning, made an application relative to the sum of mosey, 201., which had been handed over to Mr. Solona, n,t se legal adviser of Maria Manning, to be applied to the purposes of defence in the forthcoming prosecution. lie said that out of the above amount he had received 51. 165., a sum totally inadequate to defray the expenses which will be necessarily required for his defence, and that the object of th e p resent applica tion was for the purpose of requesting that a lair proportion of the money already advanced might be given up. He then quoted from " Chitty's Reports" a clause on the relative rights of husband and wife, and bearing upon the subject of his application, and which was to the following effect:—" In general every contract made with, or security given to, a married woman vests in her husband, and be may sue alone to enforce the contract; but if a note be given to a married woman, as administratrix, even by her husband and others, then, after her husband's death, she may sue the latter: If a gift or legacy, whether specific or.otberwise, be given to a married woman, for her own use, and at her own dis posal, without other words, this vests the beneficial interest separately in .her, and in those cases, if no other trustee be appointed, a court of equity would treat the husband merely as a trustee, and compel him to act accordingly. But if the bequest be to a married woman for her own use and benefit without adding the words at her own disposal,' the wife does not take a separate interest, but her husband is entitled." Having given the above quotation, which he applied on the part of Man ning, that, at all events, half the sum already given up should be devoted to the purposes of his defence; that there were seventy-three sovereigns, besides some French Rentes of considerable value, found on Mrs. Manning, and which had no connexion with the pro perty of the murdered man; and he contended that Manning, as the husband, was justly entitled to the whole of it. THE CHOLERA AT SEA.—The ship Sheridan, Captain Cornish, arrived at Quarantine from Liverpool. She lost 31 of her steerage passengers and seamen by cholera. The following are their narnes:—Mr. Sim mons, of New York, second officer of the ship; J. An derson, of Liverpool, carpenter of ditto; William Ogden, seaman, of Liverpool; Frank Conklin, ditto, of Rouen, France ; Walter Riley, ditto, of Weatherfield, Connecti cut; George Simmons, ditto, of Dantzic. Steerage pas sengers—John Grimes, of Sligo; Frank and Ellen Dal ton, of ditto; W. Hollyridge, and Martha, his wife (who have left four children on board the ship, without rela tives or friends); Mary, Catharine, Sarah, and Charles Barnes, of Craxton, England (all of the same family, and the mother is on board); John Mickleworth, of Leeds, England ; S ara h P ra tt, of Oxford, Ireland ; John and dward Richards, of Leeds, England; Catherine Doyle, of Ireland; Michael Breene, of Tipperary; James and Richard Smith, of Ireland; Martha Farrell, of Longford; William and Dorothea Oldman, of Cornwall, England; Sarah and Morris and Edward Lloyd (mother and two children), of Kidderminster, England ; John Shannon, of Rosscommon, Ireland ; (Joseph Kavanah, of Dublin, fell o ver b oar d and was drowned). Captain Cornish had a very ser ious and trying time the first week out. The cholera broke out among the crew on the 7th of August; for the first eight days there were from eight to ten new cases, and from three to five deaths daily for eight days in succession. 0-,it of 22 semen, only four could be mustered in a watch. 80 cases and 31 deaths occured since the ship sailed. All that could be done was done by Captain Cornish and his officers for the sick. Several were ill when she reached Staten Island; they were taken to the hospital. The vessel has been detained at Quarantine.—New York Herald. The shipwrights who struck work in Shields some time ago, in consequence of an attempt on the part of their employers to reduce their wages, persist in refus ing to submit to the proposed reduction, and the most of them have been set on again at their former rate of wages,—Neweastle Journal, Mr. Seeker said that at present he should make no order on the subject, but should take time to consider the matter. Mr. Binns then withdrew. Cmuous ACCIDENT.—On Tuesday night last, Mr. J. Crineau took a ticket for Starcross, at Bristol, where he resides, intending to go to Sidmouth by way of Ex mouth. He left the Bristol and Exeter down platform at the usual hour, 1.15, A.M., and at about 6, A.M., some labourers on their way to work discovered him lying oa the up-rails, about half a mile above Wellington. As sistance was rendered, and he was promptly conveyed to the Half-moon Hotel, Wellington, where it was dis covered that several ribs were fractured, his body was much bruised, and his head cut in many places. He must have lain upon the line for upwards of three hours. Mr. Blackmore, the intelligent superintendent of the Bristol and Exeter Railway Police, was sent down to make some inquiries, and he found that the unfortunate gentleman must have fallen through the window, as the doors were locked on the off-side. It is supposed that at so late a period of the evening Mr. Crineau must have felt drowsy and fallen asleep; but, stank(' by the whistle previous to coming into the Wellington station, he must have forgotten where he was, and from the lights, imagining himself in bed with his room in flAmes, scrambled through the window, and met the accident, from which, it is believed,, he has every chance of recovering. He is, we understand, registrar of births and deaths for one of the Bristol districts.— ll'estern Times. THE Gears SEASON.—Partridges are said to be very plentiful arid in good condition, so that sportsmen are likely to have " game" enough before long; but the poor birds will have a temporary respite in many cases, till the corn is off the ground. Grouse shooting and deer stalking in the north are the groat royal and aristo cratic pursuits at this time, and the sport is said to be xcellent, great quantities of, game having been almost daily " bagged" by even ordinary shots, whilst " crack" sportsmen bag their " braces" by scores. Hares are also said to be plentiful, so that the pleasures of the field are likely this season to supply a satisfactory recrortion to the lovers of the "dog and gun."—Newcastle Journal.

Linseed Oil has been in excellent demand by home dealers, and some shipping orders have been executed.

HULL, SEPT. 4. Messrs. Taylor and Bright's circular states—Since the statement of imports was made up, there is a further considerable arrival, chiefly of spring corn, with which the market is now well supplied. During the week, though more rain has fallen than of late, harvest operations have received no interruption, and by the end of the week a large quantity of grain will be housed. The trade has been very much depressed all the week, and where sales have been effected a further reduction must have been submitted to; at such a time prices are often irregular. Owing to the harvest being so general, there was but a thin attendance of farmers, and a consequent small show of old wheat, and our mil lers, notwithstanding a decline in Mark-lane, were free buyers at last week's prices. In foreign wheat but little doing, though we had more inquiry from district millers. More samples of new wheat were exhibited, quality not generally fine, or condition good, but reports are favour able as to the probable yield. Some fine Seal barley on the market, but maltsters are hardly general buyers yet. A continued good demand for grinding qualities. We note no alteration in linseed, but the market is rather weak, and cakes are easier to buy. No transactions in rapeseed, but a good demand for cakes, which are scarce.

Fr m Europe little has been received, but from the United Stares large supplies of Indian corn and flour have come forward. The exports in the same time are small. The weather has been far from favourable for harvest operations, ranch rain having fallen at night with 1 a close and warm temperature during the du'. A great deal of wheat in this neighbourhood is still unsecured. The trade has been ch , incterized by great dullness, and in the limited transucti, , ns in wheat and flour a decline of fully 2d per 701 b. and 6d per 1961 b. has ben submitted to. Indian corn was held firmly at previous rates, but little business done. Oats and oa'tneal slow sale, at a decline of Id per 451 b. and fid per 2401 b. Barley, wit h a fair demand, receded hi per 601 b. No change in beaus and peas. At this day's market there was a fair attend ance of town and country dealers. Wheat and flour met a fair consumptive demand, at Friday's decline of 2d Per 701 b. on the former, and 6d per barrel on the latter. The demand for Indian corn was very limited; in the few sales 6d per 4801 b. less was taken, 25s 6d being the top price for tine yellow. Barley, beans, and peas without chang e from our last quotations. Oats and oatmeal neglected, at id per 451 b. and 6d per 2401 b, r e d uc ti on . Sel'la small parcels of new Irish wh ea t an d oats were ex hibited for sale, the condition of both being very bad, were dis posed of at prices ranging from 5s 4d to 5s 10c1 per 701 b, and 2s 4d to 2s 7d per 451 b. New oatmeal, 24s to 253 per 2401 b. LEEDS, SEPT. 4.—The arrival of wheat at mar ket to day is only moderate, but the continuance of f a vourabl e harvest weather causes the corn t ra d e to b e ver y (I°l i 4 and old wheat is 2s per quart e r, an d new w h eat fully 19 to 23 per quarter lower than last week, and the millerg buy for itnmrdiate consumption.
