Ii T 1111 " 131 -24 I MARKET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. CITY, Two O'CLOCK. hr The Liverpool Cotton Market 'yesterday closed with a hardening tendency and with less offering. si„ The demand for Boweds, between sgd. to 51d. per tfq lb., for export has again been very good. Prices of ~(:) American were fully id.. per lb. dearer, and in IA many cases even more. Surat and Egyptians 33 were also id. per lb. dearer. The sales wore 8,000 bales comprising 6,500 Americans (500 for 17i export and 1,000 on speculation), 300 Egyptians, 22 52d. to 71d., and 1 , 200 Surat, 30. to 42d. per lb. 2ti (500 for export). The Railway •Share Market 3t. yesterday was steady, and closed at an advance. - st. The general tone of business on the Paris Bourse tO yesterday was heavy and uncertain. Transactions 5 1 in the Three per Cent. Rentes were made in anti- 20 cipation of to-day's settlement. The Four-and-a- E s Half per Cents. declined 25 centimes for the ac- 1 0 count, and 20c. for the close of the current month, 60 In Railway Shares there was little doing, and not 25 much fluctuation in the quotations, with the excep- £5 tion of the Lyons, Mediterranean, and the Austrian t• Society Shares, which receded 10 to 15 francs on St. St. previous prices. 25 For several days past the Hollando-Belgian line 25 of railway has been carrying large quantities of St. silver ingots in transitu for Paris, which are sent by L the Bank of Amsterdam for the Bank of France. St. The Madrid Gazette has just published a decree I _- ( 0 ) for the regulation of the floating debt as proposed 20 by M. Bruil, the Minister of Finance. Treasury St. notes will be issued, bearing a certain rate of in- 6 .? terest, and taken as a legal tender for the payment St. of duties, for the sum of 200 millions of reals. St. St. The advices by the La Plata from the West St. Indies state that at the next meeting of the House B t. of Assembly an attempt will be made to reduce the 12 direct taxation in Jamaica, and substitute in its 50 stead an increase in the import duties. Opinions, NI of course, differed as to the measures which ought st. to be adopted with a view to obtain a revenue ~,?) sufficient to meet the liabilities of the island. Among 114 the poorer classes there was a cry for a diminution St. in the high salaries of some of the officials, and it was ;t0 observed that the expenditure is excessive. Upon to the subject of the proposed alterations, it was con- l i r sidered that as the members of the House of As- 50 sembly entertained adverse views upon the Import 40 Duties' question that there would be considerable lig opposition. St. There was no alteration in the prices curre nt on ,r 2, the London Corn Exchange to-day, but the busi- lo st. ness doing was limited. St. The last week's railway receipts, ascertained up 50 to this day, are in round figures as follow : 25 1855. 1854. 11) , Caledonian Deeside 20 Brighton 14,469 15,243 Manchester and South Junction South-Eastern _ 20,728 17,087 50 South Devon Kendal and Windermere West Cornwall West Hartlepool 2,702 2.313 8 Glasgow and South-Western 6,179 5,579 :t Ulster There is no improvement to notice in the market for Public Securities, but, on the contrary, a slight decline has occurred in the absence of any large purchases. Consols opened at 87i to 87, at which they have remained, but for money they have touched 87i and 88. The New 3 per Cents. are heavy at 87!- to 87k, and the Reduced at 86i to 871. New 2g per Cents. are 731. There is rather an active demand for money in the Stock Exchange, this being " pay day" in the Foreign Stock and Railway Share markets, and Exchequer Bills have dropped from par to 10s. discount. It is generally stated that the late in crease in the rate of interest on the Unfunded Debt was insufficient. Foreign Stocks ruled quiet, and there was very little alteration in the quotations. Turkish 6 per Cents. are at 78i to 78a, while for account they are as high as 79 to 79i. Sardinian Bonds have declined to 84, but Peruvian are steady at 73L Equador Bonds at 4i, and Brazilian 41 per Cents. at 92. Dutch 21 per Cents. have advanced to 62 to 63. Spanish Passive Bonds are 51. The following are the nominal prices of foreign stocks: Grenada Deferred Bonds, 18 to 20 ; Mexican, 191 to ; Peruvian, 72 to 4 ; ditto Three per Cents., 52 to 4; Portuguese Four per Cents., 43 to 5 ; Russian Five per Cents., 95 to 8 ; ditto Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 85 to 8 ; Spanish New Deferred, 19, 1 z to ; ditto Three per Cents., 37i to 8 ; ditto Certificates, 41 to ; ditto Pas sive, 4i to si. The business in Railway Shares is contracted, awl the few transactions entered into have been at about yesterday's rates. Great Western, how ever, rule heavy. The Canadian lines are dull, and the Foreign neglected. Copiapo Mine Shares are marked 20. Oriental Bank are quoted ex dividend. Canada Land Shares are fully 3/. lower.

Long, for so many years huntsman to these hounds, has re signed his situation. He had held his post 54 years, under four dukes, three of whom he has followed to the grave. FATAL BOILER EXPLOSION NEAR EDINBURGH.—On Friday morning, between eight and nine o'clock, a fear ful accident took place at Eurdiehouse limekilns. The works were proceeding as usual, when suddenly the boiler exploded, fragments of it being carried from 200 to 300 yards by the violence of the shock. James Gilchrist, foreman of the quarry, and Win. Bennett, bank heads man, were killed on the spot. Mrs. M‘Gill, wife of a la bourer at Edgehead, who had just reached the kilns with her son's breakfast, was awfully burned, and died soon after in the Royal Infirmary in Edinburgh. Her son, Thomas MgGill, the engineman, was also very much burned, and he lies in the Infirmary in a dangerous state. John Renwick, blacksmith at the works, was very severely injured, but it is thought he will recover. —Scotsman. SOCIETY OF NOVIOMAGITS.—On Friday evening the Lord Mayor entertained at dinner, at the Mansion House, his brethren of the above-named eccentric anti quarian club, composed exclusively of Fellows of the Society of Antiquaries of London. The Noviemac , ian S. C. Hail R. Lemon present were Messrs. WanseY, Durham, ' G. R. Corner, Stevenson, G. Godwin,t J.W.. Butterworth, Bennoch, Chaffers, and to meet the hem his Lordship had invited Mr. Hawkins and Rev. J. Hunter, two of the vice-presideuts of the parent Society of Antiquaries, together with M r. F. Ouvry, treasuArierr, and Mr. Akerman, secretary. Mr. Tite, M Alderman Wire, Mr. Alderman Carter, Mr. F.S.A., Mr. Butterworth, F.S.A., Mr. Deputy Lott, 100 F.S.A., Mr. Anderton, Mr. I'Anson, and others, were 100 also present. Covers were laid for about thirty. 100 PRICE OF GOLD.—The quotation of gold at Paris is 20 about 5 per mille premium (according to the last tariff), 20 which, at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. 10d. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 25•29 A ; 20 and, the exchange at Paris on London at short being 50 25.35, it follows that gold is about 0.22 per cent. dearer 10 in London than in Paris. By, advices from Hamburg 50 the price of gold is 42q per mark, which, at the Eng- 10(1t lish Mint price of 3/. 17s. 100. per ounce for standard 2c gold, gives an exchange of 13.51 ; and, the exchange at 5( Hamburg on London at short being 13.54, it follows that 2( gold is 0.06 per cent. dearer in London than in Ham- 2: burg. The course of exchange at New York on London for bills at 60 days' sight is 109 per cent. ; and, the ,Of par of exchange between England and America being if 109 23-40 per cent., it follows that the exchange is nom i na lly 0'53 per cent. against England ; but, „ after making allo wance for char ges of transport and o“, difference of interest, the present rate leaves no profit on the transmission of gold either way between the • two countries. 5( 40 50 25 20 SHARE MARKETS.

Before he could get up one of the thieves fell upon him and rifled his pockets, from which he took 2.25. 6d. in money and a tobacco-box. The prosecutor called out " Police," and the thieves ran away. Mr. Leitch immediately proceeded to the station-house in Leman street, and gave some information of the robbery and a description of the thieves. A few minutes afterwards the prisoners were :apprehended in Lambeth-street, Whitechapel, by police-constable Deeble, No. 195 H. The prosecutor at once identified them, and he swore to Finn alias Fenn (he is called by both names), as the person who first seized him by the collar. Manning was standing by at the time.

In answer to Mr. Yardley, the witness said that he was quite positive as to the identity of the prisoners. He could not say which of the four rifled his pockets. Mr. Yardley asked if the prisoners were known. Inspector Weakford, of the H division, said the pri soners lived in Lambeth-street, which for a long time had been a notorious receptacle for thieves. Manning was convicted some time since, and fined 51., for hav ing in his possession 50 silk handkerchiefs, suspected to have been stolen. Finn was the constant associate of thieves. . Easton Po 1 12i -- 13 ,lib -- 120 Sarah Beaumont deposed that she was the wife of the prisoner, and resided with him at 22, Little Britain. She had been married to him 15 years, and had had separate maintenance for the last nine years, in conse quence of the prisoner leaving her. She had returned to him about three months. Last evening the prisoner, who was sober, struck her a violent blow on the eye, which blackened it, in conse quence of his imagining she was conversing in the kitchen with a man. He then went out, and returned between 12 and 1 o'clock drunk, and attempted to strike her with his boot, which she had offered to assist him to take off, but she evaded the blow. He went to bed, and asked her to do so, but she refused, saying she was afraid of him. He promised her if she came to bed he would not touch her. She went to bed, but shortly after he seized her by the hair of the head, and shook her head on the pillow. She got out of bed and he followed her, swearing he would knock her teeth out, at the same time giving her a blow in the mouth, which knocked out four of her teeth. She was in danger of her life when her husband was in liquor. This was the first time he had assaulted her. FPeto k Co. ~Nortolk.. L.&N.

She came again into the house, when he turned her out, with the assistance of his barman and another person. She then became very violent, and with a stone smashed a pane of glass, which cost about Si. He laid hold of her, but she got away. He followed her, and it was with great difficulty that he was able to prevent her from doing him a serious injury. Mr. Long—Did she strike you ? • Mr. Cottrell—Repeatedly, sir. She tried to bite me, and other persons who were assisting me. Berridge, D 33, sergeant of police, said that when he had hold of the prisoner she made a desperate struggle to get away. She threw herself on the ground and scratched his face. Had it not been for his coat she would have done him a serious injury. The prison* was fined Si. for breaking the glass, o r one month in default of payment ; 205., or in default 14 days, for the assault on Mr. Cottrell ; and 10s., or seven days, for the assault on the policeman. JUVENILE THIEVES.—Four children, two boys and two girls, were charged with stealing 421bs. of bolts, the property of the Great Western Railway. Neither of the prisoners was above 13 years of age. Mr. Herring, instructed by Messrs. Maples and Pierce, appeared to support the charge, and Mr. J. Collard, the active superintendent of the company, also attended to watch the proceedings. Mr. Herring stated that the company were building an iron bridge near Kensal Green, and that adjoining there was a heap of bolts intended for the construction of the bridge. The company have lost a large number of bolts ; in consequence of which a watch was placed over the property. It was subsequently discovered that the prisoners had left a quantity of bolts at a marine-store dealer's, opposite the Royal Saxon Tavern, Alfred•road, Paddington. Upon Mr. Collard going there he heard that about 40th. of bolts had been purchased by the per son who occupied the shop. There was no desire on the part of the company to proceed against the prisoners, as they felt that they would not have stolen the property but for the facility afforded by the marine-store dealer to dispose of them. , - John's Farmer, J., 8.A., Caius Farrar, J., 8.A., Trin.

CORN EXCHANGE. - - Although the supply of English wheat on sale in to•day's market was very moderate, the demand for all kinds ruled very inactive, at Monday's decline in the quotations. The imports of foreign wheat have been only 2,270 qrs. Importers generally were firm in their demands, and prices were supported. The business doing, however, was trifling. Floating cargoes of grain were quite as dear as last week. Fine barley realised very full prices; but inferior parcels commanded scarcely any attention. Malt was tolerably firm, at late rates.

The quarter sessions foi• the Belturbot division of the county Cavan was opened at Bailyconnell on Thursday, by Mr. P. M. Murphy, the Chairman. The court was unusually crowded. The learned gentleman addressed the grand jury as follows : ,‘ Mr. Foreman and Gentlemen of the Grand Jury I deeply regret lam unable to re p ea t on this occasion those congratulations on the p eacea bl e con di tion of the district which I have had so much pleasure in address ing to you for a considerable tim e b ac k . I regret it the mo re because there is but one solitary case for your in vestigation during these sessions ; this, however, only proves what experience has long taught us, namely, how fallacious a criterion the calendar, either at sessio ns or assizes, affords of the condition of society which exists among us ; and how strikingly exemplified has this observation been by the appalling event which has taken place ! It is a matter of notoriety that some years back this part of the country was in a fearful state of disorganisation, arising, as we all know, from the secret proceedings of an illegal confederacy but too well and too familiarly known as the Riband Society. However, from the almost complete disN)- , pearance of those crimes usually denominated agrarian outrages, in common with yourselves T had shared the hope that a sound state of society had been perma nently established. Is it permitted us still to indulge those pleasing hopes, or must we join in the apprehen sions of those who tell us that under this smooth and tranquil surface there still runs that treacherous under current which bears along in its poisonous course the seeds of crime, of desolation, and death 'I God forbid that by any word of mine I should prejudge a case which may yet, I trust, undergo a solemn judicial investiga tion ; nay, so far, indeed, from doing so, I would fain hope that this surpassing crime, which has just affrighted the heart of every man in the community, is an isolated case, and has no connection with a more extended com bination. But if, indeed, the fears of many should prove to be true, and the dreadful crime is symptomatic of a return to those evil days to which I have adverted, then should I say, Woe betide this unhappy and devoted district.' I have already said I shall abstain from allu sion to the circumstances of-this case ; but having had a long experience, both at the bar and on the bench, of the disastrous consequences springing from those illegal confederacies, I can speak with something like authority on this subject ; and, therefore, I think it not out of place on this occasion to raise my warning voice, and to supplicate every man whom my words may reach to consider deliberately the character, the objects, and consequences of this Riband confederacy. In quire, then, in the first instance, of any man, the oldest and the most experienced in the community, if he can point out one single benefit arising to any human being from this association. Now, let this question be fairly considered and canvassed in a candid spirit, and I pledge my experience there will be but one answer, and it is this—that misery, and misery alone, has been the result. Let us next examine the object of these associations. That object is clearly this—by the influence of terror and intimidation to establish an au thority paramount to the law of the land, and, through the instrumentality of this machinery, to deter men from prosecuting their rights, whether for the recovery of lands or rents, or the execution of any legal process in connection therewith. This I conceive to be a succinct but perfectly accurate description of their objects. Now, suppose for a moment that these confederacies had even a temporary success ;isitto be bel eyed that a-1y man having the power to cast his fortunes in any part of the world out of Ireland would remain among us ? What, then, would be the inevitable result t Why, that all the evils of absenteeism which are so generally deplored would be aggravated tenfold ; rents would be collected— of course they would—by the agents of absentees, and enf reed with increased vigour ; all avenues and ap proac:ies to the proprietor would be shut up, he would be far away in a distant land, while the poor cultivator, bound down by necessity to the soil, would be compelled to struggle on in adversity and distress, unregarded and unpitied ; and to complete the picture of this misery, in no respect overdrawn, all these calamities would fall indiscriminately on the innocent as well as the guilty. Now, mark well, this is the result of the Ribandrnan's success—his complete success. Let us now turn to the consequences of his failure. He has brought down the vengeance of the law upon his district ; he has stimulated the activity of every magistrate and policeman around him ; he has compelled the Govern ment to put forth all the terrors of the law, and, if these are found insufficient, he has induced the Parliament to forge new fetters for the Irish peasant. He it is who has revived the Coercion Acts, the Arms Acts, the In surrection Acts, the Whiteboy Acts ; in fact, he it 'I that has drawn forth the sword that has long remained rusty in the scabbard, to fall upon the devoted heads of his countrymen. Then, let him count the gains. He has turned the heart of the landlord against the tenant, of the tenant against the landlord ; the kind and affec tionate regard he has converted into the averted look of mutual distrust, and then, perhaps, he terminates his guilty career by becoming the informer against those very associates in crime whom he first seduced and after wards betrayed. Is this an exaggerated picture, or is it the experience of every man among us ! Trace the career and progress of the youthful Irish peasant who has been seduced into these illegal associations, and is met, perhaps, at some gathering or dance by some artful knave, who, at the very moment the unconscious boy consents to take the unlawful oath, is gloating over the price he will receive for his betrayal. How many and many an artless lad has thus been inveigled ! His youthful vanity is first flattered by being enrolled,' as Ribandmen call it, in this association. His young heart would then have recoiled at the bare con templation of murder, but soon, through the vile companionship of wicked and dissolute associates, he becomes familiar with crime, the barriers of vir tue are broken down, and, step by step, he descends in the paths of guilt. He is afraid either to advance or retire ; he is oppressed with terror at every step he hears, and at length he terminates a wretched existence either by the hands of the hangman or the assassin. Who, then, that has a heart to feel, or a tongue to give the feeling utterance, will not join me in imploring all men to unite in crushing in the bud the reviving efforts of this hell-born coefederacy ? Away with all recreant fear, and, still more, all guilty connivance. Ido not appeal to those higher sanctions which, I doubt not, have been, and will continue to be, inculcated upon the hearts of the people by their spiritual instructors. They will tell them, no doubt, that from the day of the first murderer the wrath of the offended God has ever pur sued the footsteps of the assassin. I purposely abstain from alluding to the circumstances connected with the outrage upon the hapless lady who now lies almost in view of this court a lifeless corpse. The sad story of Charlotte Hinds has reached every corner of the earth. She, poor mangled and mutilated victim, has just been released from the indescribable agonies of her seven deadly wounds; her bruised spirit has been summoned before that dread tribunal where one day assuredly she will be confronted face to face with her ruthless mur derers. There is, however, one caution which I desire to circulate far and wide, it is this—that every man or woman who harbours" or conceals, or assists in any way whatever in the escape of the murderers, does, in fact, by so doing become an accessory to the fact, or, in more intelgible language, an actual party to the murder ; and I have reason to know that the Govern ment is intent on hunting out and punishing to the ex tremity of the law any man who harbours or conceals the assassin. Let every man, therefore, use his best exertions to bring those wretches to justice. In this way, and this only, can you wipe away the stain which has been cast upon this district, by the perpetration of an outrage which, I will say, amid all the dark and dis mal records of Irish crime, stands forth without a parallel." This address was listened to with breathless silence, and produced a profound sensation. At the conclusion of its delivery the grand jury and magistrates presented an address to the learned Chairman, and requested a copy of his charge, as they considered its publication would be attended with the most beneficial results. The interest of the proceedings was heightened by the fact that during the delivery of the learned Chairman's charge he coroner was holding his inquest in the imme- Hate neighbourhood on the remains of the unfor tunate Charlotte Hinds. BATH THEATRE.—The performances at this establish ment, both on Saturday and Wednesday, were well at tended. On the first-named night, after the drama of Susan Bopley, which seems to retain its full amount of , interest with a largo class of "the patrons of the stage" in this city, there was presented a military spectacle en titled the Fall of Sebastopol. With the characteristic energy which distinguishes the management, Mr. aChuute, no doubt, contemplated an amusement which choiltd. satisfy the cravings of the public appetite in the pr excitable period ; so far as scenery, machinery,.o..o,tuasetoe: to be and stage effect were concerned, nothing was 1 ft desired. But though an exhibition of this kind [eight receive, as it would deserve, universal elsewhere, people expect stage iep r e exernplia _ witness the development of some plot,re public ta applause t Stocqueler, cation of character.

On Wednesday, Madame Celeste auti:drikir. B. Webster . were the great attraction, and well did they sustain their well-earned reputation as leading artistes in their peculiar walk of the drama. The first piece, Janet Pride, is a drama of intense interest, ex hibiting vividly the awful effects of the vice of drunken nes,i. Truly might the stage be made a school for morals, were people only willing to be taught. The career of Richard Pride is a homily more powerful than a score of sermons, or of ten score teetotal disquisi tions. The after piece was /The Pretty Girls of Stilberg, so well known for the opportunity it affords Mr. Web ster of exhibiting his extraordinary portraiture of the Emperor N a p o l eon . Th e genera l a pplause by which the audie nce t es tifi e d their satisfaction was the best evi dence both of the merits of the pieces and of the actors. To-night Madame Celeste and Mr. Webster will appear again, a again, in two popular dramas, when we have no Journal. no d large audience will be again assembled. Da.

UNFOUNDED CHARGE OF ROBBERY. —CAUTION TO THE PUBLIC AGAINST PURCHASING WATCHES OF HAWKERS. — William. Edmunds, a decent -looking man, described as a labourer, was brought before Mr. A'Beckett, charged with stealing a watch, purporting to be a silver one, from Joseph Lyons, under the fol lowing extraordinary circumstances The prosecutor, who was attired in the garb of a sailor, with large bushy whiskers, said he was a licensed hawker, and resided at Mile-end, New-town. Last evening, about seven o'clock, he went into a public house, in Duke-street, London-bridge, to treat an old friend, and wanting a little money to do so, he took his watch out and offered to sell it for 30s. The prisoner, who was in the house, said, "Let me look at the watch." Witness handed it to him, when he said he would give him 20s. for it, and at the same time walked out of the house with it, and refused to return it. A constable came up at the time, and he gave the prisoner into cus tody. The prisoner declared that it was all false as to his intending to steal the watch. The tact is, the prosecu tor thought he had money, and could impose upon him, consequently, when he got hold of the watch, he called the constable, so that his imposition should be exposed. His worship would see that the watch was block tin, washed lightly over with silver, and of the coarsest make. It might have done for a drunken man. Police-constable 462 said he was on duty in Duke. street, last evening, when the prisoner called him over to the door of the public-house, and handed him the watch, saying that the prosecutor attempted to sell it him, but believing it was a " duffer" he would not buy it. The prosecutor then said that ho should give the prisoner into custody for stealing his watch, and he then took him to the station-house. The prisoner said that the p r osecutor actually followed " him up after he had said he would give him 20s. for it, " but on looking at it he sa w it was a duffer and he gave it him back. Ile, however, handed the watch again to him (prisoner) and said he would take 15s. for it, when he called over a constable and gave him the watch. The prosecutor then gave him into custody for steal- ing it. Mr. A'Beckett, to the prosecutor—How much is this watch worth? Prosecutor—About ten or fifteen shillings, sir. I, however, would have sold it for the latter sum. Mr. A'Beckett, after examining the watch, said under the circumstances, which looked rather strange on the prosecutor's part, he did not think any jury would con vict if he sent the prisoner for trial. He should there fore discharge him with a caution to have nothing more to do with public-house hawkers. THAMES. DARING HIGHWAY ROI3BERY.—James Finn, aged 25, and described as a labourer, having no home, and John Manning, 23, of No. 54, Lambeth-street, Whitechapel, was brought before Mr. Yardley, charged with assault ing and robbing Nicholas Leitch, a sofa-maker, of No. 18, King-street, Turk-street, Bethnall-green. It appeared from the evidence that last ni g ht abut half-past 11 o'clock , the prisoner was walking along Leman-street, Whitechapel, when he was accosted by two women, who made some overtures to him. He re pulsed them, and said he would have nothing to do with them. Directly afterwards, and before the prose cutor had well got rid of the women, the prisoners and two other ruffians came up to him, one of them seized him by the collar of his coat and another by the neck.. He struggled with the villains, and released himself, and one of the fellows then struck him a violent blow with his ,w~~~~ _ 3 81 ex n 9a 24 6.1 6, 10 10 St. 20 50 10 St 26 , 4 13; 20. all 100 10 6 IDo . [Do.. 30 291 a pin Pm x d x d .BLE PLA A ceremony was performed the other day, which at the first blush appears to be about the most stupid and disgusting act of Vandalism which we ever happened to have heard of. A number of gen tlemen "interested in the advancement of the fine arts," to use the words of the reporter of the meet ing, attended at the Albion Tavern, Aldersgate street, on Thursday evening, to bear witness to the destruction of the steel plates " of some of the best known and most popular steel engravings which ever existed, and which were published by the pre sent Lord Mayor, Sir Francis Graham Moon, when he carried on the business of a printseller and pub lisher, and the original cost of engraving, copy right, &c., of which has been little sh o rt o f 30,0001." Among these were " The Waterloo Banquet," " The Queen receiving the Sacrament," " The Re turn from Hawking," and several others equally well known to those who gaze at print-shop win dows. The steels of these magnificent plates were in the first instance destroyed by disfiguring the engravings, under the superinte n d ence o f Mr. Boys, of Oxford-street, their present proprietor, and Messrs. Dixon and Ross, the printers, of the Hampstead-road, who have taken the whole of the impressions from them for distribution among the public. Tho plates were subsequently cut to pieces by machinery, and were exhibited nailed to boards on a surface of white cloth, at the Albion, on Thursday. Mr. Boys, formerly of the firm of Moon, Boys, and Graves, presided, and remarked, that perhaps this might be looked upon as the most extraordinary epoch in the annals of the fine arts. He believed it was without a parallel that from 25,0001. to 30,0001. should have been voluntarily sacrificed and destroyed, as they saw was the case with the beautiful and celebrated plates around them. Some of the subjects he was justified in saying had cost, with the various adjiacts in engraving, &c., 6,0001. each. They were, as they saw, destroyed beyond all re demption : and now must be stated the object of such voluntary destruction. The patrons of art devoted a considerable sum every year to the decoration of their mansions with such specimens as the impressions of the plates before them bad produced, and it was felt that those who had paid 10, 15, or 20 guineas for a work of art should be protected from seeing the same work at a later period, as was too frequently the case, hawked about at incredibly lo p sums. One effect, therefore, of the destruction of these plates was that a large increase in the standard value of the existing impressions was created. A lasting value was imparted to them, and as those in the hands of the trade diminished in number that value would increase. Under these circumstances, as a guarantee to the trade as well as the public, these valuable plates had been destroyed. Mr. Graves, Mr. Straker, Mr. Marks, and other gentlemen, spoke upon the subject ; and the various copies in the hands of the proprietor was then put up to a trade sale, the competi tion being very spirited. A liberal entertainment ter urinated the proceedin g s. One of our earliest- recollections is of a picture, in a certain child's history of the world, called "Turks Destroying Works of Art," where three or four sturdy Osmanlis, slippered, bearded, turbaned, and with fine muscular development, were sawing away at a fluted Greek column. We have never been able to forgive the Turks for this —no, not even now that they aro ourallies. But they were barbarians, and they knew no better I When we read the above ac count of the Albion Tavern meeting, this picture was immediately recalled to our recollection. The acts wore the same ; but, as for the reasons, they are very different in the two cases. Mr. Boys, Mr. Graves, Mr. Colnaghi, and Mr. Ackermann, and " the large number of gentlemen interested in the advance of the fine arts," are not barbarians. Oh, no ; they are interested in the fine arts. We hope Mr. John Lemoine—who makes him self merry with English absurdities, and shows ua up to his compatriots, and whose facetious notice of our legal and Sunday legislation we translated a day or two since—we hope that Mr. John Lemoine never reads the Daily News. For these gentlemen interested in the fine arts would indeed be exhibited as English originals. The observations of his to which we refer began with the sentence " What are laws without manners ?" and very apropos is such a maxim in the present case. When we have succeeded after ages of struggle in destroying the obstacles of the law to free trade, when we have destroyed many, and—please God—intend to destroy many more monopolies—when we,hav• done all this, here we hate this fine-art people, who have no " law " to trouble them, showing themselves apparently to be as little troubled with " manners." Apparently, we say, for are they not interested in the fine arta ? We have all read; of Shakspere's or King Lear's " farmer, who hanged himself for fear of plenty ;" arid we h 'ave heard that during the good old times quantities of corn were now and then absolutely destroyed to enhance the price of the remainder. Now the corn destroyers and King Lear's farmer were interested in agriculture ; so their case at first seems parallel to that of Messrs. Boys and Co. But it is not ; for the farmer and corn destroyer wore interested in agriculture as being sellers of corn, and though they did the corn eaters harm, they did themselves good—or thought so. But Messrs. Boys and Co.—and by the Co. we mean all the per sons concerned in the Albion ceremony—according to the statement of Mr. Boys, destroyed the steel plates only to benefit others, by raising the value of the engravings, which had been bought for many guineas by people who decorate their mansions. Tile fact is, Messrs. Boys and Co. are aristocrats or philo-aristocrats ; they worship people who have mansions, and they flow their abundant love by making a voluntary sacrifice of 25,0007. or 30,0001. entirely for the sake of their lordly patrons. We therefore see now what they mean by being inte rested in the fine arts. We have heard of print sellers destroying engraved plates immediately after they had taken as many impressions as could be called perfect copies, so that no inferior ones should appear in the market to beget a poor taste in art and take away from their high repute as priutsellers. These latter were interested in the fine arts in a dif ferent sense from Messrs. Boys and Co. There are some people, too, who labour to make the best things common—who would rather decorate the peasant's wall with a good engraving than with a bad one— who think it better that the aesthetic faculty of the poor man should be drawn out by offering to his gaze a Raphael than dulled by the vulgar and atro cious daubs which alone are now within the reach of his purse ; and who think, in fact, that there will be always natural causes enough in action to make a difference between the cottage and the mansion without resorting to the barbarian, brutal, and wicked process of voluntarily destroying what is beautiful or useful. Are Messrs. Boys and Co. content to be consi dered as interested in the flue arts in this sense, viz., that they aro meant only for the mansion, and not for the cottage ? Is this really th e i r excu se for their stupid barbarian act ? and for the brazen front with which they take credit to themselves for the act, and harp a president, speeches, and a " liberal entertainment ?" To do them justice, we don't think they saw the full meaning o f their ex planation, or that they intended to do any such barbarous thing • and as the barbarity would con sist in the knowledge of what they wer . e t acquit them of brutality and barbarity h that the said at first, it is only at the first b pect, in short, affair wears this aspect. Ae Welabsorate trade puff. doing, we u s, tio h n ad a t m ak on en g that after all it was only a f n impressions from them on Mr. Boys, the proprietor a o lor tn d e consideration : and this the public" ...... for a c i p st l r a i t b e no more could possibly it became known that that Mr. con sideration would amount to a higher figure if Boys took care and that ho and the gentlemen impressions should be taken as the th W fi e n h e o a p r e ts who entered into " the t b h e a p t ro a d s prod uced. We ' competition for the engravings may make s pire good thing of it. We hope that the whole a very plates interested a bear, -e „ world will now have an opportunity of buying some of those prints ticketed " very rare ;" that they may, no twithstanding, be bo ug ht cheap enough to adorn a cottage, while the owners of the mansions may fancy that all their engravings are from plates that have been voluntarily destroyed, so that their souls may not be vexed by having anything that the million can attain to. We hope that this latter is the real explanation of the Al bion meeting that, in fact, it was a peddling trade puff ; that Mr. Boys made so good a thing of it that the cost of the liberal entertainment was a flea-bite ; that it was not the dull-headed act of Vandalism which it at first appeared ; and that this time we shall escape the kind notice of Mr. John Lemoine.—Daily News. of Fri- THE CAMP AT SnonlicrarrE.—The galestrong ie, day severely tested the buildings on Shormucel fffear for the troops.
