The country markets held on Saturday were for the most part but moderately supplied with wheat, yet all kiuds moved off slowly, at a decline of from is to 2s per quarter. Barley was heavy and cheaper. All other grain met a dull inquiry. The near continental markets continue dull, yet very little change hae of late taken place in prices. Advices from New York state that • both wheat and flour were I drooping. . _ Very moderate supplies of English grain came to hand last week. From abroad we received 10,207 quarters of wheat, 3,819 barley, 23,843 oats, 600 beans, 1,225 pens, 101 tares, 6,602 linseed, 749 rapeseed, 1,275 sundry seeds, 2,966 sacks, and 100 barrels of flour. Fresh up to-day the arrivals of English wheat from Essex and Kent were very moderate ; but about 3,000 quarters left over from Friday were in the market ; hence the show of samples was by no means small. Owing to the limited number of buyers in attendance, the commencement of harvest work in various forward districts, and the increase in the granaried stocks of foreign, the demand for all kinds of wheat of home produce ruled excessively heavy, at a decline in the quotations obtained on Monday last of from 2s to 3s per quarter. We were well supplied with foreign wheat in good con dition. So few transactions took place that the quotations were almost nominal. To have effected sales, a decline of fully 2s per quarter must have been submitted to. There was soarcely any demand for floating cargoes of grain, the arrivals of which continue moderate. We had a moderate show of barley, all kinds sold heavily, and the currencies gave way, compared with Mon day last is per, quarter. The malt trade ruled dull, but no actual change took place in prices, Good oats realised full prices, but damp parcels gave way 'el. per quarter. Both beans and peas sold slowly, and in some instances the rates had a downward tendency. The flour trade was very dull, and country marks were 2s. per 2801bs. cheaper. CURRENCY PER IMPERIAL MEASURE.

There was an increased arrival of beasts fresh up from our own grazing districts, compared with Monday last, but the general condition of the supply was inferior. Al though the attendance of buyers was tolerably e good,ed.T the h e trade ruled heavy, at a decli ne in the q uotatio ns of 2 d per 81bs, and a clearance was , wit h difficulty, fft highest price for Scots was 5s 21 per 81bs. From Lin colnshire, Leicestershire, and Northamptonshire we re ceived 1,100 short-horns; from the Eastern districts, B'lo Scots and short-horns ; from other parts of England, 350 of various kint , s ; and from Scotland, 200 polled Scots. For the time of year we were very moderately supplied with sheep, at least two kinds of which were of inferior quality. Prime Downs and half-breds sold steadily, at full prices ; all other breeds moved off slowly, at barely late rates, We had a moderate demand for lambs, the supply of which was by no means extensive, at last week's currency, viz., 4s 8d to 6s per 81bs. Prime small calves sold steadily, at an advance of 2d per Sibs ; other kinds of veal were tolerably firm, at full prices. Pigs changed bands to a fair extent on former terms.

"HOUSE OF COMMO.Y.c.4—(THIS DAY.) Thr SPEAKER took the chair at one o'clock. The Lords' Amendments to the Derbyshire, Staff,rd shire, and Wcrcestershire Railway (No. 2) Bill were considered and agreed to. The following bills were read a third time and passed :—Halford's Estate, Hadow's Divorce, Ewing's Divorce, and Wyndham's Divorce. MARSHALL'S CHARITY DILL. On the notice for the consideration of this bill, Mr. PELLATT, who had riven notice of certain amendments in it, complained that the bill had been sent down from the Lords at this late period of the ses sion, when there was no time to consider it. Mr. FITZROY hoped the house would not prevent the progress of the bill, the principle . of which had been fully considered and approved of by the Court of Chan cery. Mr. HADFIELD said it was a strange doctrine that this house should have no jurisdiction over a bill be cause it had been approved of elsewhere. After a few words from the ATTORNM-GENEItAL in support of the bill, The bill, as amended, was considered and read a third time and passed. . Mr. SPOONER presented petitions from Whitehaven and other places, in favour of the c'osing of public houses on Sunday and for the prevention of the sale of any spirituous liquors on that day, except for medicinal purposes. LUNATIC ASYLUM (IRELAND) ADVANCE BILL. On the motion fur the third reading of this bill, Mr. MAGAN complained of the third reading of this bill being pressed at the present moment, especially as there had been a distinct understanding that it was not to be proceeded with. After some observations from the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER and Colonel DUNNE, the bill was real a third time and passed. NAVIGATION WORKS (IRELAND) BILL. This bill was read a third time and passed, the 9th clause being struck out. DISEASES PREVENTION BILL. This bill was,- read a third time and passed. - EXCHEQUER PILLS (7,000,0001) BILL. This bill went through committee and was reported without amendments, and ordered to be read a third time to-morrow at twelve o'clock. CONSOLIDATED FUND (APPROPRIATION) BILL. This bill went through committee, was reported with out amendments, and was ordered to be read a third time to-morrow at 12 o'clock. MILITIA PAY BILL. This bill went through committee, was'reported, and ordered to be read a third time to-morrow at 12 o'clock. COAL MINES INSPECTION BILL. The Lords' amendments to this bill were considered and agreed to. CRIMINAL JUSTICES DILL. On the motion for the third reading of this bill, Mr. T. CHAMBERS moved that it be read a third time this day three months. He said he considered he was justified in pursuing this course, be- cause this bill, which, whatever might be its merits, was one of grcat importance, altering the crimi nal tribunals of this country more than any other, had passed to its third reading without any debate on its principles. He considered the practice of sending such bills to a select committee of this house to to be evade an expression of opinion of the house on measures to which there was so much opposition. The bill has no pre amble, and gave no reason why it was brought in, but from other sources it was stated the bill sought to remedy two evils—one the great delay at present existing i❑ the trial of persons charged with light offences, and the other to save expense. He proceeded to argue there was no foundation for such com plaints, because in counties quarter sessions were held, and intermediate sessions every six weeks, and in large cities and boroughs they were held oftener, where gaol deliveries took place for these classes of offences. He thought it would have been better to have enlarged the powers of taking bail, instead of introducing this bill for the abolition of one tribunal, and the setting up another unknown to the common law of the land. Tile argument of expense was the most trivial and unworthy that could possibly be urged. This bill would not cure either the delay or the expense complained of, because if a remand takes place at petty sessions under this bill, without bail, the person would be confined for as long a period as now. The expenses would be greater. It would entail the build ing of houses for holding their petty sessions, and em ployment of persons to look after them. Prosecutors and witnesses would have to be paid for attending these petty sessions as now. [LEFT SITTING.] LLOYD'S SHIPPING-(THIS DAY.)

ANOTHER BUROLART.—On Saturday some sensation was created in the City, in consequence of a third exten sive robbery of silk having been committed. Police con stable Humphreys on going his rounds about six o'clock, observed a skein of raw silk lying on the pavement op posite the door of Mr. Vim. ganderson, silk manufac turer, 7, Gresham-street, City. But a few minutes be fore he had tried the door of the house, and found it quite secure. On entering the premises, which were un der repair, a large hole was found cut through a sheet of glass in the skylight of the warehouse, and two stools, to which was tied a rope, were let into the warehouse with knots about a yard apart. Although some persons reside in the house not the slightest noise was heard. Mr. Inspector Mitchell and Sergeant Sheppard are most actively engaged in investigating the robbery. Little doubt is entertained but that it was effected by the gang who broke into Messrs. Dean and Cc.'s, and Mr. Bar ber's. TERRIFIC GUNPOWDER EXPLOSION.—A few days ago the safety fuse manufactory of Messrs. Hawke and Co., of Gwennap, in Cornwall, was completely destroyed by a gunpowder explosion. It appeared that there were ten women employed in the manufactory, and that two of them were engaged in binding lengths of fuse called "rods," when one of these broke, and friction being caused by the machinery, some loose powder was ig nited, which communicated with 1001 b. weight of gun powder, and a terrific explosion was the result. Two of the women were killed, and all the others were more or less injured. They presented a sal spectacle after the accident. One of the young women killed was to have been married in a few days. THE ROCHDALE MURDER.—CAPTURE OF HEYWOOD.— The Rochdale Sentinel announces the capture of Jona than Heywood, the supposed murderer. He was appre hended by police officer Berry, at a place in Rossendale, called Coupe or Cray Delph, near Edenfield, and distint from Bacup three and a half miles. He was employed carrying rushes, and previous to that he had been work ing at a farm-house lower down. He appears to be a man whose step is less firm than Martin's. In height he is the same within half an inch. He has a dimple on the chin, as described by the witness Albinson. He is less full and paler in the face, and wears a smock-frock. Many persons recognised him as he went along the streei to the lock-up. Both in the streets and the police-office he manifested the utmost indifference. The Carnarron Herald says :—" Much excitement was caused on Tuesday, in the beautiful little watering place of Beaumaris, by the arrival of the ex-Queen of the French. Her Majesty arrived soon after six on that evening at the Bulkeley Arms, where she had secured apartments for a month. The Bangor road and the streets were crowded with persons anxious to have a glimpse of the Royal party as they passed. Mr. Richard Bulkeley, Lord Lieutenant for the County and Mayor of Beaumaris was in waiting in the hall of the hotel, to pay his respects to her Majesty as she entered. The Royal party consisted of her Majesty the ex-Queen Emile, his Royal Highness the Duke de Nemours, her , Royal ' Highness the Duchess de Nemours, Count 12u, Duke d'Alancon, Princess Margar ettee, Countess .1% 1 1 14"1., Count Dumas, Captain Bell i, Miss Muise , Chap lain, and suite," 1555. lli i 90 68 ri 64i i 7f 99 8j 86* 72i 3 13 13 91 48i 9 12$ 721 12? 10 dig I 20 10k 10 e 2 9$ a. 37a 24 i 221 i f fi 41 x a 42} SPORTING NOTES. GOSSIP ABOUT GOODWOOD. When Turf authorities agree their unanimity is won derful. Two or three years ago one and all were la mentng the departing glories of Goodwood, and pro phetically fixing the time when the Grand Stand and the magnificent course would be turned from their pre sent use. Like the celebrated traveller from New Zealand, who, Mr. Macaulay informs us, will one day take his seat on a broken arch of London Bridge to sketch the reins of St. Paul's, it has been predicted that the coming Turfite will sit a ruin amid ruins, on the summit of the Trundle Hill, and trace out, through tangled fern and bushwood, the arena of many stirring encounters, and weep over the broken columns and fallen walls of the once Grand Stand, where were wont to congregate the beauty and the chivalry of the country. These dismal anticipations are, however, not likely to be realised within the pre sent generation, and sporting writers are, therefore, now eagerly bearing testimony to what they call the sustained popularity and undiminished prosperity of the glorious Goodwood meeting. The facts by which they back their assertions are patent and indisputable, and to adduce any additional evidence in support of their statements would be merely piling Pelion on Ossa. The Duke of Richmond has expressed a hope that he may long receive his friends at Goodwood, a hope which is shared in common by every sporting man. Certain racing incidents which marked the proceedings have an enduring importance. The mania which existed about a year or two ago for giving extravagantly high prices for yearlings is not likely to be revived. Scarcely one of the " dear purchases" have answered the sanguine expectations which were formed of them, and the way in which they have turned out would indicate that they had been fattened and fed on oilcake on purpose for sale. Voivode, who was bought by Mr. J. Merry for the ab surdly high price of one thousand and ten guineas, made his debut on Tuesday, and proved an utter beast with out the shadow of racing merit. He is a confirmed roarer, and is not worth a twentieth part of the money that was given for him. The signal defeat of Fly-by ni.elit for the Ham Stakes created a sensation. He was reported a " little off," but his backers did not for an instant doubt his ability to achieve success. He was, however, unmistakeably beaten, and Alfred Day gave him too such " galvanisers" with his whip as disturbed the echoes of the place. Mary Copp, who was recently purchased from Lord Eglin ton, by J. M. Stanley, Esq., won easily. She repeated her success on the following day, and by her two victories it is said that her owner cleared the amount which he paid for her and the entire stud of the Lord of the Tournament. Lord Eglinton, if he have any love of racing, must regret parting with so valuable an animal. Despite his many triumph•, however, he was always a faint-hearted sportsman, and he doubtless repents his want of pluck. Mat Dawson was not a little rejoiced in winning the Steward's Cup for Lord John Scott with Clotilde. The success of Quince for the Goodwood Stakes proved the misguiding tendency of his running at Newmarket and Ascot. Surgeon-General " cut up" an utter brute, Ivan was incapable of stay ing, and Epaminondas's running was regarded with suspicion. The doubts which were created with respect to Epaminondas had their rise in the many rumours which were circulated about him, and the assertion which was made with respect to his owner not being " on." The scratching of Homily certainly afforded another argument in favour of the abolition of p. p. betting. It admits of no extenuation, for the mare was well and perfectly fit to run, and the cause of her withdrawal can only be traced to a mone3- ge•ting motive. When gentlemen play such fantastic tricks with their horses, no wonder that their example is followed to a ruinous extent, and to the destruction of the sport. Such a Homily is not likely to be soon for gotten by sporting men. Goorkah was, struck out be cause his owner could not get on at the price he wished. Although, however, I acknowledge Mr. Barber's tact and ability, yet I am compelled to confess that if he really desired to back his horse be went somewhat clumsily to work. His repeated oilers to take 30 or to lay 25 to 1 were simply preposterous. Did he really imagine that anybody would lay him 30 to 1 against Goorkah when it was well known that not a dozen starters would go to the post ? Hervine's running was not a little surprising to those who were informed that early in the year she had dropped a foal to Caravan. I shall not attempt to explain the opposition which set in against Oulston on the Wednesday, and which was sustained in certain quarters down to the hours of start ing. They who pronounced him a roarer would find it difficult to state their reasons for forming such an opinion. After the Cup race he pulled up sound in wind and limb. It is no exaggeration to state that Baron cino " won all the way." Homily made running for him, and Fordhani was frequently compelled to shout out to Crouch, who was riding her to make the pace stronger. Lord of the Isles was, I fancy, only started to got a line with Oulston. The conditions of the Cup are abent to be revised, and the allowance■ to foreign horses are to be materially reduced. The absurdity and injustice of making English horses concede 221 b. to French horses that are by English sires, and have all the benefits of an English training, are too ob vious and too widely acknowledged to require indication. Baron Rothschild and party won an immense stake, whilst Mr. Elwes, the owner of Oulston, was judicious enough to couple the " foreigner "in his investments. The Nursery Stakes proved a " good thing " for La Victims, who was the favourite at Goodwood. Elfrida, however, was an im mense " pot " in London. The Chesterfield Cup was carried off by Pumicestone, who, strange to say, found few supporters in the ring. Brother to Grey Tommy, the favourite, got badly off. Instructress won the Nas sau Stakes in a style which caused not a little grumbling among those who had backed her for the Goodwood Stakes, and who found themselves "put in the hole " by her withdrawal. Verily, the good easy public will, for the future, be cautious how they deal with Mr. Magen nis's horses. To-morrow I will collectsome "Bits about Brighton." August G. A FRESH MAN. MR. W. S. LINDSAY AND yrrE REPRESENTA TION OF TYNEMOUTH. TYNEMOUTEI, SATIIIIDAY NIGHT. Captain Linskill, cousin to Mr. R. W. Grey, M.P , the latter gentleman being private secretary to Lord Palmerston previous to his election for Liskeard, having announced his intention to contest this borough at the next election in the somewhat uncertain character of a Liberal Conservative, Mr. Lindsay has issued an ad dress to the electors. With regard to the motives in ducing Captain Linskill to contest the borough with him, he says : " Considering that there is not likely to be a general election before next session, I should think, to say the least of it, that gentleman's address has been somewhat premature ; as there is, however, a great deal behind the scene—far more than I can tell you in a letter—l will postpone what I have to say till I have the pleasure of seeing you when the business of this session is over. Till then, I ask you (and in common justice I feel you will grant my request) to withhold your pledges to one who has hitherto made professions of friendship, but who now appears as my opponent, should he adopt the unusual course of personally waiting upon you to invite votes, long before there is any prospect of an election. I will then ask from you, in public, a continuation of that support as your representative which I am sure the majority of all sections will readily grant, when they hear from my own lips a full explanation of my conduct as a public man ; and more especially when I tell them the extraordinary way in which I have been dealt with." There is a rumonr that Mr. Hugh Taylor, of the London Coal Exchange, who it will be remembered was unseated by a committee of the House of Commons for treating, will be brought forward by the Tories to con test the borough.

ACCIDENT ON THE MERSEY.—LIYERPOOL, Friday.— The iron barque Retriever, while being towed from the Sandon to the Prince's Dock, and when in the act of turning round opposite the Birkenhead pier, was caught 'twist wind and tide, and being without ballast capsized. A number of steamers at once went to her assistance, and succeeded in taking off all parties on board, several of whom had received contusions frcm the shock. The unfortunate barque sank in about fifteen minutes after capsizing. Mme,secial THE LAUNCH or THE MARLBOROUGIL-13-- of command of her Majesty, Mr. T. R.

THE CRZMRA KAMARA,Lv 24. Omer Pac•kha has not yet returned from Constan tinople, and the idea is more and more gaining ground that he will not again return to the Crimea. But, nevertheless, he is expected back by the soldiers with great anxiety. When he left he made a kind of address to the soldiers, in which he told them that ho was going away for a short time, but that he would he back soon. The soldiers, in that free and off-band way which characterises the intercourse of high and low in the East, if there is not some dirty interest in question, exclaimed—" Come back soon, or else we will go off too." The poor fellows did not reflect in the excitement of the moment that the Crimea is for us au island, and that in our scep tical age the genii disdain, even in the East, to build bridges over 150 miles of sea, or to carry an army of true believers through the air. Fortu nately, the Turkish army is a school of patience, and so every one is waiting quietly the decision of his fate. Yesterday the news arrived that Omer Pasha had landed in Kamiesh, and horses were accord ingly sent down to meet him ; but they returned in the evening. The whole had been a mistake ; it was Abdi Pashi, the same who commanded last year in Epirus and Thessaly, and who is daily ex pected here, who had arrived. In the rear—for since all idea of an advance on this side has been given uplve again form the rear— there is nothing new, except that some English light cavalry had been sent down to the Vale of Baidar. They are detachments of the 4th Light Dragoons, the Bth and 11th Hussars, and the 17th Lancers, and they have occupied an open place alongside an old Tartar cemetery? near the Woronzow-road, where this latter begins to ascend towards the sea. A little,beyond the old cemetery there are some curious old graves, very likely the burial places of Tartar chiefs. They are of the most primitive construction, and closely resemble those found in the, mounds in the neighbourhood of Eunatoria, with. the, only difference that these latter were imbedded in the mounds, while those at Baidar are above-ground. Both are formed of four roughly-split limestone slabs without any polish or ornament, Three of these slabs enclose the grave from north, east, and south, leaving it open to the west, while the fourth is placed on the others without any cement. Two of these graves are constructed on a kind of plat form, surrounded by smaller stones._ All these graves are in a row, suggesting the idea of some family burialground. I asked several Tartars about them, but all they knew was that they were very old, a piece of information which we may gather at first sight, without claiming any unusual penetration. The French have moved on to Tchouliou, near the bridge leading over the Tchernaya. Here this latter river forms our boundary. It is occupied in its whole length from the spot where it comes out of its native mountains, near the village of Skelir, down to Inkermau. The only exception forms that part of it where, leaving the Valley of Baidar, it runs through a precipitous narrow gorge, which defends itself, being only, and that w ith considerable difficulty, accessible t) pedestrians down to Tchorgoun, where it leaves this gorge. Our outposts were, until lately, everywhere on the opposite bank of the river ; but a slight change occurred a few days ago in this respect. The Russians had, for some time past, been seen working on the road leading up to Mackenzie's Farm. In the beginning it looked as if they were fortifying, but it soon became clear that, on the con trary, they were repairing the road, where it had been cut up, in order to make it inaccessible to any advancing force. Lately they have come down and repaired likewise the battery which commands the ascent of the road, and which has been destroyed by the French on the occasion of their advance to the Tchernaya. In consequence of this movement of the Russians the French outposts retired over the bridge of Traktir. All this looks as if the Russians had some inten tions to attack us, instead of waiting for our ad vance. Perhaps they are tired of waiting, which would not be at all surprising ; although, on the other hand, it seems scarcely credible that they who hitherto knew so well where their advantage lay should be carried away all of a sudden by an untimely warlike ardour. However, as you say in one of your latest numbers which have reached us, " War is a tragedy of errors, and we must hope that all the blunders will not be on ono side." According to all accounts, a great deal of sickness prevails among the Russians. In one of my rambles in the neighbourhood of Baidar I found in a solitary country house on the seashore, which had been lately deserted by its inmates, several letters from Simpheropol of a recent date—the be {4inuing of June—which were strewed about in the rooms, and all of them speak of a fearful morta lity. As they were private letters, and left behind in the hurry of a sudden departure, there can be no doubt about their veracity. Tho Tartars pretend that it is the plague, and that several cases of it occurred likewise in the Tartar villages, infected by the presence of the Rus sian troops. It must be a virulent kind of fever which, like the epidemic last winter among the Turks at Balaklava, is called plague by the Tartars, for the plague season is over. In Egypt and Syria, after the middle of June no case of plague ever occurs. However, if the accounts of the virulence of this epidemic are true, it answers just as well as plague for reducing the Russian forces. _ _ _ _ On the night of Sunday or Monday we had some heavy firing in front. According to the accounts which have reached us, the French were vigorously attacked by the Russians in the Mamelon works, but repulsed the attack. The Highlanders are spoken of as having taken a considerable part in repelling the Russians. It seems as if the Crimean summer heat, which everybody has hitherto been expecting ;with such dread, has set in at last. For several days we had 98 degrees in the shade, notwithstanding all possible contrivances used to establish a current of air, and thus to mitigate the beat of the sun. As usual in hot climates, the mornings, up to 11 o'clock, are the most oppressive ; about noon the sea breeze springs up and moderates somewhat the heat of the tem perature. The nights afford scarcely any relief ; except the sudden chill which accompanies the sunset and sunrise, and brings down the thermo meter by 10 or 15 degrees in a few minutes, there is scarcely any difference between day and night. The consequence is a nearly uninterrupted Rus sian bath, with a very moderate allowance of water for an occasional douche. We have, indeed, the whole sea before us, but the descent to and the ascent from it over the steep cliffs more than counterbalance any advantage to be derived from it. The springs and wells in the neighbourhood are very scanty, considering the number of men who expect to be supplied by them. They are be sieged from morning to night much closer than Sebastopol, and in greater danger to be soon re duced ; for, besides the Turks, there are numbers of Frenoh and Sardinian fatigue parties cutting brushwood for gabions and fascines, who refresh themselves on their way to and fro. for the construction of a flight of steps for the e s p ecial The Southampton Dock Company have given orders use of her Majesty's landing and embarking at the docks. . the The first order issued by Sir B.

AUSTRALIA.—The advices from Australia to-day are dated Sydney the 12th of May, being nearly a fortnight later than those previously received. According to a circular from Messrs.

The delay of communication was much complained of, the February mail from England being still due. Immigra tion from New York was setting in, a considerable num her of persons having recently arrived by the Tropic. ThP latsst departures from Sydney had been the Duke , of Northumberland on the 20th of April, with 1,712 ounces of gold, and the Lady Wharncliffe on the sth of May with 1,634 ounces. The accounts from Port Philip were to the Bth of May, and the produce of the goldfields was very satisfactory. THE T URKISH
