The Railway Share Market 1,5,( 0 31 was firmer and quotations advanced fully per 20 cent. 10 The Board of Trade have received a co py of a lig French decree, which enacts that during the three 50 years ensuing, flax, hemp, pig iron, and other arti- 2 , ;. 5 ties used in ship-building, will be admitted duty st . free, on condition that proof is afforded within one 20 year from the date of import ation of their applice.- Ssti. lion to the purpose in view. Reports have been recently published from the 2 g, 5 Consuls of the Netherlands i n Russia, g ivin g ac- St: counts of the state of the crops in their provinces. 10 In Livonia there has been a magnificent crop of T o t ' rye, but the wheat is neither of good quality nor 50 abundant, and the same may be said of barley s 2? and oats, while the potatoes are suffering from dis- 10 ease. In Courland the potatoes are also diseased, St. and barley and oats of good quality but middling F t quantity, with excellent rye crops. In Esthonia t.i grain is generally poor, but the potatoes are excel- It: lent, with no symptoms of disease. Altogether, commercial enterprise throughout these provinces 12 50 was in a state of utter stagnation. The Netherlands State Bank has published Mi.', its balance-sheet up to the 31st ult., showing its 3 t. position at that date as follows :—Notes in circu lation, 97,402,625 florins (Dutch) ; balances on lli accounts current, 18,915,019 florins ; coin and - it valuable securities forming the assets of the Bank, 20 83,466,084 florins. tO From BaVaria recent accounts state that one of 84. the partners of the house of Rothschild is at pre- 5 4 ( ( ) ) sent in Munich, making application to the Minister ‘26 of Finance for a concession of the projected lines 25 St. of railway throughout that State. 25 The Continental Stock Markets continue to re- .112 p main in a state of inactivity. On the Vienna Bourse 4th shares of the New. Bank ruled at 950, and the Ex- gt, changes on London and Paris were respectively 50 11.05 florins and 1321 florins. The 3 per Cent. 1 1 Rentes on the Paris Bourse yesterday declined from 2r the previous quotations slightly, but were firm at 6 1 the close of the day. At Berlin yesterday the Royal Bank of Prussia issued a notice, announcing that their rates of discount on Bills of Exchange was increased from 4to 41 per cent., and the interest 16 on Loans and Deposits raised from sto 5i per 1 1; ) cent. 8 Letters from Bogota, New Granada, have been received from the Foreign Minister of that Repub lic by the Consul in London, from which it ap pears that contracts have been entered into for the sale of lands, iu exchange for the Bonds of the Foreign Debt. An Anglo-French Company con sented to take 75,000,000 English acres, for which they were to pay at the rate of 1001. active bond for every 1,3331 acres, or 100 active and 100 deferred bond for every 2,000 acres. Exchanges for 500,000 hectaras with a Mr. Castello, and for 30,000 hec taras with a Mr. Mijuel Paz. Some important advantages are conceded to the settlers on the property, suck as exemption from taxes for twenty years, and as a guarantee for good faith on the part of the Government Bonds, active and deferred were to be deposited.

The general aspect of the English Stock Market is quiet, as the Consol account is nearly adjusted; but there is no heaviness in prices to notice. " contango "of to 1 per cent. still exists. Col sols have been 881 to 881 for money, and 881 for December. Exchequer Bills are firmer again, being 6s. to 2s. discount; and India Bonds are 5 3 . to 2s. discount. The New 3 per Cents. are 83 to I. Bank Stock is at 208. A steady but quiet market exists for Foreign Stocks. Turkish 6 per Cents. are 791, aid the New Scrip is 3to 2/ discount. Spanish Deferred are 19k, and the Committee's Certificate is at 4i per cent. Belgian 41 per Cents. are 921, Dutch Bonds have advanced, the 4 per Cents. tr 931 and 94, and the 21 per Cents. to 64. Grenada Active Bonds are firm at 191. The following are the nominal price of foreign stocks: Grenada Deferred Bondg 6,1 to 7 ; Mexican, 19,i to 3 ; Peruvian, 74 to 76; ditto Three per Cents., 52 to 54; Portuguese Four per Cents., 43 to 45 ; Russian Five per Cent., 95 to 98 ; ditto Four-a.nd-a-Half per Cents., 85to 88; Spanish New Deferred, 19i, to ; ditto Three per Cents., 371- to 8 ; ditto Certificates, 4tc ; ditto Pas- 0 p oS sive, 51 to 1. 1.00 Railway Shares are mostly rather firmer, but North-Western have advanced, and Great-Western 1: receded. The Eastern Counties also are weak, %) owing to rumours of an unfavourable repor t being 22°0 presented at the next meeting. Paris and Lyons 20 and Eastern of France are supported. The cold- 20 0 nial lines are the same as yesterday. In Mining, Banking, and Miscellaneous Shares, 1() there is very little alteration to notice.

The inquest has been held on one of the children who died on SundAy, and as it was evident that scarlatina had been the cause of death, a verdict to that effect was returned. DETECT IN THII NEW ACT ON BILLS OP EXCHANGE.— 11 The lawyers have discovered a great defect in the new act on bills of exchang!, and promissory notes. It seems that there is no provision to allow costs. The question a rises, whether by the Common L aw P roce d ure Act, 2 which is incorporated with the new law, or by the judges 2 framing rules, as they are empowered to do, a remedy can be found ?

LAW INTELLIGENCE—(This Day.) particulars of each marriage, birth, and death which can be compared with the facts that . the census of 1851 has placed at his disposal. In that year we find that 154,206 marriages were cele brated, so that 308,412 persons were married, or a number equal to four-fifths of the deaths and to one-half of the births. Of these marriages 130,958 were performed according to the rites of the Established Church, 6,570 of the Roman Catholic Church, and 9,540 of other Christian denomina tions, 6,813 being married in Superintendent-Re gistrar's offices. Rather more than five per cent. of the men and fifteen per cent. of the women were, it would appear, minors, while in 36,186 instances both husband and wife signed with marks; in 73,141 both wrote their names, and in 44,879 ono of the parties only signed with a mark. The pro portion of bachelors married was 58 per thousand. The births (615,865) were at the rate of 3.425 per cent. on the population. Of the entire number 42,000 were born out of wedlock, or nearly 7 per cent. (the proportion in London being the lowest, or 4 per cent.). The mortality of the population was at the rate of 2.199 per cent (the deaths were 395,396, the relative mortality of males and females being as 2.276 to 2.124). The reader, it is to be hoped, has by this time resolved to obtain the re turn, and if he does so he will find a multitudinous array of useful information on these important subjects, tho labour, care, and judgment required to gather which up and tabulate it cannot but have been immense. QUEEN'S BENCH. (Sittings in Banco.) TYRRELL AND ANOTHER V. THE COHEIIARA MINING COMPANY. Mr. Browne applied for a rule calling on the defen dants to show cause why the plaintiff :3 should not ho at liberty to issue execution on a judgment obtained herein against four gentlemen, shareholders in the company, which was registered under the Joint-stock Registration Act. The judgment was for 129/. obtained in August last, but the plaintiffs had been unable to obtain satis faction by an execution against the effects of the com pany. His application was for an execution against the four gentlemen named, who were shown to be share holders at the time the judgment was obtained. Lord Campbell said the practice was to proceed seria• tim, against shareholders because their position with re ference -to the company might be -different in each. One might not have been a shareholder at the time of the contraction of the debt whilst another was. _ _ evening. Cineas . Ceres.. Chere Petite.. Mr. Browne said he would consider whether he would take one rule including the four, or a rule against each of the four shareholders. THE QUEEN V. GILLING. Mr. Palmer applied for a certiorari against a magis trate of the Isle of Ely, for remanding under a warrant Thomas Gilling into the custody of the gaoler of Ely. The warrant was at present in the custody of the gaoler, and a question arose whether this warrant was of such a nature as required to be quashed before an action could be commenced against the magistrate under it. The sircumstances of the case were these. Thomas Gilling was an Irishman, and brought beasts from Ireland to Norwich. On the 22d September he took a ticket at the Trowbridge station for London. At Ely he produced his ticket, which the railway official declared was a false one, and that be was travelling without paying his fare. lie detained him, and took him to the police station, where he remained from that time (Saturday night) till Monday morning, when he was taken before the magistrate, who remanded him, on a warrant, till the Thursday following, on which day he was discharged, it having been shown that he was travelling with a true and proper ticket. The first ques tion was whether such a warrant was the subject of a cer tiorari, and, if so, whether under the Act for the Pro tection of Magistrates it was such a proceeding as would need to be quashed. Punch's Pocket-Book for 1850. This will be found as useful if not so lively a companion as some of its predecessors. As usual, it is divided into two parts—one devoted to the practical, and the other to the humorous and satirical—the whole being enlivened by whimsical or laughter-moving illustrations by Leech and Tenniel. Tho first pare contains an almanac, a diary and memoranda for every day of the week, the names of court and public officers, and of Peers, Peeresses, and Commons, in connection with their respective functions, ranks, Sic., besides a largo amount of business information. Among the more noticeable contents of the second part aro " A Quiet Street "—a pandemonium of vocal and instrumental diz,zcord and dire confusion, felici tously depicted in a fly illustration• " The Ro mance of a Button "—showing that the insecure fastening of a button may lead to the most terrible events. "Plurality of Worlds"— settling the question by pointing out seine half dozen whose existence is generally reccgnised. " The Boys in the Street '—posing and practical. " A Story of a Lamp "—a Moderateur, offered at 21., and requir ing, according to the 'modern trade fashion, some 31. more to sot it a-going. And " The Language of Flowers"—in which the crabbed Grteco-Latin nomenclature in vogue among botanists is plea santly satirised. On the whole, however, Part 11. for '56 will, we are afraid, be considered a failure. Lord Campbell—For what object ? Mr. Palmer said it was to prevent the railway com pany or the magistrate from setting up the authority of this warrant in an action for damages. Lord Campbell considered the court should not set aside the warrant if it was available for any purpose. Mr. Palmer—The magistrate acted without authority. Application refused. The Farmer's Almanac Calendar for 1856. By 0. W. Johnson, Esq., F.R.S., and W. Shaw, Esq. IN RE AN ATTORNET.-Mr. Q C., moved for a rule calling on certain attorneys of this court to an swer certain matters contained in affidavit , . The appli cant, who was also an attorney, had a debt owing to him of 1,8151., and ho instructed his agents in London, who were also the agents of the attorneys in question, to send a writ to them for execution against his debtor. The writ was forwarded on the 15th December last, artived in the country on the 17th, and should have been served according to ordinary practice the same day. Instead of that, the attorneys, who were also bankers, sent for the debtor on the 19th, and, producing a mort gage deed, insisted on his executing it in their favour for 2001. they tad advanced to him. The mortgage was executed, but afterwards found to be for 3001. instead of 2001. They then served him with the writ, and wrote the agents saying the debtor had entered an appearance to the writ to obtain time. It turned out that the at torneys in question acted as the debtor's attorney, and entered the appearance. The result of these proceedings had been to inflict a loss of 2001. on the attorney com plaining.. A correspondence without prejudice had taken place between the parties, which accounted for the delay of the application. The important clasg for which this annual is especially designed will find in it a vast amount of information, more or less necessary for their guid ance towards the profitable cultivation of the soil and the breeding of stock. A more useful com pendium of the kind we do not remember to have seen. The statistical tables will be found not the least useful of its contents. Sporting Intelligence. LIVERPOOL AUTUMN MEETING.

SAVAGE ASSAULT ON A WIFE BY TIER HUSBAND. — Daniel Sullivan, a labourer, of No. 28, Siducy•etreet, Counnercial-road East, was brought before Mr. Ingham, charged with assaulting his wife, Mary Ann Sullivan. The complainant, a thin, careworn young woman, stated that she had been married 41 years, and for the last three years her husband had been in the practice of beating her at intervals, and was in a state of intoxica_ tion two.or three times a week. On Tuesday night he came borne drunk and turned her out of doors, and after- wards throw all the things in the room into the street. She was admitted into lier house again, and had to sleep on the stairs at night. Her husband did not work yester day, and came home sober in the evening and went to bed. She entered her room soon afterwards, and her husband got out of bed and threw a large bundle of slop work she had to make up at her head and knocked her down. He then seized her by the hair of her head and dragged her about the room until she became in sensible. Her husband beat her, kicked her, and nearly strangled her a few weeks ago, and she took out a sun'- mons against him which he never appeared to, and she forgave him. He was kind to her when sober and all she required was that he should be bound over to keep the peace towards her, 'and keep away from her. She could obtain her own living.

Mrs. Elizabeth Burridge, living in the same house as the complainant, said she heard screams of mur der, and saw the prisoner dragging his poor helpless wife about the room and knocking her with great violence against the door. The complainant was very much hurt, and had been ill al! night. A police-constable said he was called into the house, 28, Sidney-street, last night, and found Mrs. Sullivan lying upon the floor insensible, and she continued in that state for some time. The prisoner said he was very sorry for what ho had done, and it would not have happened if ho had not been drunk, and should not happen again. He was willing to be bound over to keep the peace. Mr. Ingham said the longer ho sat in a police-court the more he was convinced that nine-tenths of the crime in London was caused directly or indirectly by drunkenness. The • prisoner had been in the practice of beating his wife at intervals for three years. Ho looked on the prisoner's drunkenness as an aggravation of the offence, and although the wife had begged that her husband should ❑ot be punished, he could not overlook the brutality of the prisoner, which had been exercised so often on his young and most unfortunate wife: He sentenced the pyisoner to be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for ,two months, and also to enter into his own recogniEance in the sum of 201. to keep the peace towards his wife and all her Majesty's subjects for the next twelve months. SOME MORE LIVES SAVED BY THE ROYAL SOCIETY'S FIRE ESCAPE.—Yesterday morning, between the hours of three and four o'clock, a fire, which was nearly at tended with the loss of not fewer than six lives, broke out in the premises belonging to Mr. Brown, shell-fish warehouseman, carrying on business in Bishopsgate street-without, near Sun-street. The discovery was made by Police-constable No. 622 of the City force. Smoke which he saw issuing from the building con vinced him that the house was on fire. He, therefore, without delay, gave an alarm, and sent off for the aid of more police, the escapes, and engines. In a very brief period, Warten, the conductor of the Bishops gate escape, belonging, to the Royal Society for the Protection of Life from Fire, attended, and had it not been for his prompt and energetic exertions there is no doubt entertained but six human beings would have been hurried into eternity ; for when the con ductor arrived he found Mr. and Mrs. Brown, three children, and a brother of the proprietor, at the third floor, screaming piteously for help. The man imme diately raised his escape in front of the burning house, but the poor creatures were so anxious to eflect a re treat that even the conductor himself had a narrow chance of losing his life, for they nearly overturned the machine in their anxiety to get from the window, at a time when the heated smoke was nearly stifling them At the same moment, a female in the next house, named Tergen, could be heard crying for help, the smoke hav ing filled the building, and which had nearly suffocated her. Warren, with great coolness, seized hold of an infant, which he carried down in his arms, having pre viously put the mother into the canvas of the escape, and both were by that means saved from a horrible death. The conductor again ascended the escape, and brought down in safety other four persons, amidst the cheers of those assembled to witness the fire. Having accomplished that arduous task, he went and assisted Mts. Tergen out of the premises at a moment when she was in the act of falling a victim to the suffocating na ture of the smoke, thereby saving the lives of seven per sons. The engines of the parish and London Brigade quickly attended, and a good supply of the East London Company's water having been obtained, the firemen, under the direction of Mr. Fogo, the foreman, went to work, and eventually succeeded in extinguishing flames, but not until consider including lower part of the house up to the first fl.ooro,_ the discs the staircase, being consumed.

Precisely the very volume we have long wished for—and to the which we are here enabled at last to accord the heartiest welcome imaginable. In this charming little volume will be found collected together for the first time, we believe, the nume rous lyrics scattered through the romances, novels, tales, and historiettes penned by Harrison Ains worth. The musical, comical, pathetic, humorous, legendary fragments of verse sprinkled up and down those wondrous stories of gloom, and mys tery, and adventure which have built up gradually but perceptibly the fabric of our author's reputa tion. Here they all are at length strung together like !'gems in ono ample coronal. " Fantastical Ballads" from Old St. Paul's, that grill and ghastly tale of the fire and plague. " Romantic Ballads" from Crichton, that most romantic if not most chivalrous of adventurers. " Legendary Ballads" from the Flitch of Bacon, that quaintest memorial of the quaint old Custom of Dunmow. " Humorous Ballads" from Book,wood, still to our mind incomparably Mr. Ainsworth's masterpiece, and from Jack Sheppard, in many respects the most enthralling and animated of his motley com positions. Among these same "Humorous Ballads" those wonderful slang ditties which are far and away the very best things ever accomplished in this most curious branch of our popular literature. Hero they all are at last collected together as they ought to have been long ago—classified under the distinctive heads already indicated, and embellished with eight graceful illustrations from the inex haustible fancy of John Gilbert. So—here we may listen to their strange melodies once more—apart from the long interruptions of the prose letterpress. Listen ! It is the old gravedigger chaunting again to the clank of his greasy mattock and spade— The Carrion Crow 's a sexton bold, He raketh the dead from out the mould; He delveth the ground like a miser old, Stealthily hiding his store of gold. Caw! (,yaw! The Carrion Crow bath a coat of black, Silky and sleek, like a priest's to his back ; Like alewyer he grubbeth—no matter what way— The fouler the offal, the richer his prey. Caw I Caw! the Carrion Crow ! Dig! Dig! in the ground below! Or, hark ! again—lt is Manger the headsman croaking to the whir ! of the wheel, sharpening the edge of his axe— - - • -• " Salisbury's Countess, she would not die As a proud dame should—decorously. Lifting my axe, I split her skull, And the edge for a month it was notched and dull. Whir—whir—whir—whir !" Again !—lt is the witch-howl-- At the foot of the gibbet the mandrake springs Just whore the creaking carcase swings ; Some have thought it engendered From the fat that drops from the bones of the dead ; Some have thought it a human thing; But this is a vain imagining. Maranatha— A nathent! Dread is the curse of Mandragora! Rathanasy I Do we want a defter verse, or daintier tones of music ? Listen ! Marguerite, with early wiles— Marguerite On light Chains and D'Antragues smiles — Margot, Marguerite. Older grown, she favours then, Smooth Martigues, and bluff Turenne. The latter but a foolish pas, Margot, Marguerite en bas. Aro we inflamed with a zest for tho bacchanalian? Hero aro assuagements for our literary thirst plen tiful and appetising • " sadly afraid of my Old Complaint— Dying of thirst.—Not a drop I've drunk For more' than all hour : 'Tis too long to wait. Wonderful how my spirits have sunk ! Provocation enough it is for a saint To suffer so much from my Old Complaint !" Or—" a bettor song than t' other :" " The Toper who knows how to empty his can Is not half so afraid of a highwayman As he is of indifferent tipple : With the last a stout fellow may fight for his purse; Of the other the consequence certain is worse Down the throat if permitted to ripple." Or--- " With my back to the fire and my paunch to the table Lot me oat, lot me drink as long as I am able ; Let me eat, lot me drink whata'or I set my whims on, Until my nose is blue, and my jolly visage crimson." And that reminds one—best of all—of—what ? The gutteral voice of glorious Paul Bedford and the fiddles of poor Rodwell, rollicking off to the tune of— Jolly nose ! the bright rubies that garnish thy tip Are dug from the mines of canary : And to keep up their lustre I moisten my lip With hogsheads of claret and sherry. Jolly nose he who BOOS thee across a broad glass Beholds thee in all thy perfection; And to the pale snout of a temperate ass Entertains the profoundest otjection." Which in its turns calls back to mind the chirrup ing tones of delightful Mrs. Keeley as that archest of arch-scamps, Jack Shepherd, trolling out the best slang song over written " In a box of a stoao jug I was born, Of a hempen widow the kid forlorn, Fake away. And my father, as I've heard say, Fake away, Was s merchant of capers gay, Who cut his last fling with great applause, Xix my dolly pals, fake away. Who cut his last fling with great applause, To the tune of a hearty choke with caper sauce,' Fake away. The knucks in tined did my schoolmaster play, Fake away, And put me up to the time of day, Until at last there was none so knowing, Nix my dolly pals, fake away. And so forth to the close of the song of the " regu lar rollicking Romauy"—flashiest of flash chaunts, the pride of the aCEXOL., as it would have been of old the glory of Alsatia ! A gladly welcome treat to every lover of genuine lyrical poetry this volume must prove beyond all question, from the earliest of the wild legends herein recounted to the latest of Mr. Ainsworth's animated and ingenious trans lations. The Martins of Cro' Martin,. No. 12, Introduces us to Captain Martin about to make preparations for his journey, from which, however, he is deterred by an unworthy suspicion that after all lie may only be the dupe of et designing woman anxious to try her power over him. Could he not send Fletcher instead, who would be back in a fortnight with the whole state of the case ? Before he has arrived at a conclusion, Mr. Merle makes his appearance in apparent trouble and anxiety. Government has been carrying things with to high a hand, and mischief is brewing. Stocks g o o going rapidly down. lie will bo a loser of some thirteen thousand pounds, needs money, and must turn some of the Captain's Irish securities into cash ; which of them shall he select ? The Captain is indignant and imprudently sarcastic ; when he gave those securities, had he not received a pledge that they should not be negotiated ? There is some sparring, and finally the Jew money-lender takes his departure with letters of introduction in his pocket to " Mademoiselle" and Mr. Scanlan—hav ing consented to undertake an inspection of the Cro' Martin estates. At night, the 'captain repairs to his club, in the magnificent salon of which he finds a number of haughty young bloods assem bled, who vote the infliction of a fine on a n y member who alludes to the great question that is stirring the Parisian mind to its depths. Pl a y follows, and Martin, after losing heavily, has a run of luck. Massingbred enters in great disorder, fresh from an unexpected conflict, in which he has barely escaped being shot by the military, and trodden down by the people. Paris is in arms. The revolution has commencod. Massingbred, with a duel in prospect, having its origin since his arrival at the club, and otherwise meditative, repairs home ward with Martin, under whose roof he consents to pass the night. On the same evening- Lady Dorothea has a rout , durin g which Kate Hender son electrifies Villemart, and horrifies the guests by a fierce retort to an unfair and depreciatory por traiture of the great leaders of '92. The room is and ordereo rapidly cleared, and alone with Lad y Dorothe a , Kate is haughtily taken to task, sit down and write an apology at once, ore s t he leaves a roof under which she can be no longer suf fered to abide. In stead of an apolo gy , howev er , her ladyship is presen ted with a pass signed "J u l es Lagrange, Minister of Police, ad interim." Kate, it turns out, is deep in the councils of the insur gents. Martin enters and urges immediate flight. The mob are getting the best of it. Finally, Lady Dorothea, accompan ied by her son and Massing bred, and escorted by Kate, issue into the street, and are suffered to pass through the neighbouring barricade just as the troo p s arri ve. An exciting scene follows, and Lady Dorothea is borne amid the rattle of balls into an archway for safety by Kate, who receives a shot in the arm. Lady Do rothea is unable to withstand this proof of devo tion, and the number closes on her ladyship while ex pressing the strongest sympathy f or h er woun d e d reserver.

BEGGING IMPOSTORS. James Perkins, a well known begging impostor, who gets his livelihood by imposing on the benevolent, was placed at the bar be fore Mr. Long charged with obtaining alms under the following artful circumstances : Fryer, an active officer of the Mondicity Society, said that the previous afternoon he was in Baker•street, when ho observed the prisoner with a basket of water cresses on Lis aria. As he knew him to be a notorious beggar, ho kept a watch upon him, and saw that he ac costed several ladies and gentlemen. He got up so close to him, that he heard him say, upon being refused by a lady, " Do you think you can take your money into the other world when you refuse to let them have it in this world who are in want of it I " Prisoner get■ his livelihood by begging. Mr. Long--alas he ever been in custody before ? Fryer—Yes, sir, He has been in custody many times, and has been, during the last two years, in pri- son five times—on each occasion for one month. Mr. Long remarked tbat he (prisoner) seemed de sirous to live more by begging than by industry, and that by his habits he received the money that ought to be bestowed upon those who get their living by thEi labour. The prisoner was sent to the House of Correction for ono month. MODE BEGGING IMPOSTORS.--:'!Margaret BrQlDrs and Emily Smith, the latter holding the hand of a little girl, were also placed at the bar for begging, they being charged by Uorsford, jun., an active officer of the above society. The officer stated that be found them yesterday after noon in Gloucester-terrace, begging of passengers. He has known Smith, who was at 'Vestminster Police-court in December last, charged with begging. Brown stated to aim that she was selling memorandum-books. Smith said that she had not been iu custody since December. Mr. Long, on discharging the prisoner, observed that if they wanted relief they musk apply to the workhouse.

As it has been decided that the French will garrison the Fort, the English troops will return here, mid I ex pect them about the 3d November. I have to report the arrival, on the 25th inst., of a de tachment of prisoners to the number of 132, from Odessa, where the greatest part of them arrived on the 24,h September. Amongst them is Lieutenant James, of the Royal Engineers, who was taken on thO night of the 2d of July ; he has been kept at Reaza,n, and reports having been very well treated by the Russians. The prisoners have been kept at Voranetz on the Don, and when they left there were only two remaining, who were sick, and fifty-one deserters. I transmit the nomi nal list of the men. The force from Eupatoria, under the command of Ge neral D'Allonville, made a reconnaissance on the 221 instant. They fell in with a large force of the enemy and offered them battle. The Russians, however, re treated before them after an exchange of a few rounds with the Horse Artillery. I beg to enclose a copy of the report of Brigadier- General Lord George Paget, in command of the English cavalry at that place. I have the honour to report the departure of all the Turkish force that were here, for Asia, with the excep tion of some Artillery, which has been transferred to the Contingent.

Sir, --I have the honour to report that the allied troops stationed here, under the command of General of Division D'Allonville, marched from Eupatoria on Mon. day morning the 22d inst. The force advanced in two columns, the details of which are in the margin,* the one taking a northerly direction, and skirting towards the east of the lake Susik Guiloie, until it arrived at the village of Kara gurt ; the other proceeding by the strip of land between that lake and the sea, to the town of Sak. The Light Cavalry Brigade and troop of Horse Artil lery, under my command, formed part of the first-men. tioned column, which was commanded by General D'Al. lonville himself. We marched at daybreak, and arrived at Baragurt (13 rules) about 4 p.m., when we bivouacked for the night, and which, before leaving, we destroyed. When we had advanced within about three miles of this village we came in pi e:>ence of a force of about 20 squadrons of Russian cavalry, who retired before us, af ter some shots from the French Horse Artillery, which told with some effect. On the evening of the 23d we proceeded, at daybreak, in a southerly direction, passing close to the village of Temesh, where we came in sight of a body of Russian cavalry, considerably superior in numbers to that we bad seen the evening before, a strong force of guns, and, I believe, some batallions of ? infantry. This body also retired before us, at ,!a considerable distance, while we continued our advance to the village of Tuzla, on a rising ground to the left of which village General ll'Allunvill e took up a position and offered battle, Captain Thomas's troop of Horse Artillery firing several rounds with precision, which were answered by the enemy without effect. After waiting here for two hours, and seeing that the enemy were effecting a further retreat, General D'Al lonville formed a junction with the column, under Musbir Achmet Pasha, at the town of S a k, Aere we bivouacked, destroying the town and considezable Rus sian cantonments. On the 24th inst., yesterday, we returned to Eupa• toria by the sea coast road. On the first day's march, the French cavalry were in front, the English cavalry in support ; the Turkish cavalry on our left flank. On the second day, the cavalry under my command were in advance, supported by the French cavalry, the Turkish cavalry on our left flank. I have great satisfaction in stating that General D'Allonville expressed' to me his approval of the manner in which the cavalry I have the honour to command manceuvred in the field, as likewise of the good prac tice of our Horse Artillery ; and I may perhaps be per mitted to express my acknowledgments of the courtesy evinced towards me, and the troops under my command, by the General during the time we were in the field, and since we landed at Eupatoria. I beg to enclose a return of casualties+, caused by ex. haustion from the want of water, of which there was a very great scarcity everywhere. Captain Hai/Alen, Royal Navy, has requested me to inform you that the French brig of war, Allouette, and her Majesty's ship Diamond, co- operated with the troops on this occasion ; but that he, finding a sailing vessel unhandy on tl is servic placed the guns and men of the Diamond on board the steam transport Oneida, from which he fired on the flanks, and on some advanced pickets of the enemy.— ' I have, &c., (Signed) GEO.

APPREHEIVSION OF LOB. MARTINSON. Robert Martinson, the Newcastle-on-Tyne Bank cashier, who absconded, after stealing nearly 5,0001., was apprehended yesterday at Southampton, on board the United States mail steamer Washington, just as she WAS about to leave that port for Now York. lie has been advertised for the last week, and 100 guineas reward offered for whoever would give such information as would lead to his apprehension. A detective police offi cer has been in Southampton for some time on the out look for him. Martinson, it appears, arrived at South ampton on Friday last, and frequently passed the detec tive without being noticed. Mr. Hillier, a clerk to Messrs. Croskey and Co., the agents for the Washington steamers recognised him amongst the other passengers on board the Washington, and gave him into custody of the detective. The delinquent cashier had been living at an inn in the town very freely. Yesterday morning, two or three hours before the Washington sailed, he gave the landlord of the inn two 1001. Bank of England notes to get changed. The latter took thew to a bank in the town, where some demur was made as to giving change fur them. The presenter of the notes stated that they belonged to a gentleman who had put up at his house. This caused him to decline changing them, unless that gentleman could give a reference. When the landlord re turned to his house, he found the owner of the notes had gone on board the Washington to arrange about his berth, and he t'ken thought that ho would take the notes to Messrs. Croskey and Co., to endeavour to obtain change for them there. Mr. Hillier, the clerk in the office, hearing the landlord mention the circumstance about the notes, and having read the advertisement about Martinson, went on board, saw him, and also saw that he answered the description given in the advertisement, and he then very quietly put himself en rapport with the detective, and gave the robber into custody. In lees than an hour afterwards, the latter was on his way to London, instead of to New York. JEW GRENADA DEBT. The following letter has been addressed to a contem porary : Sir,--Your approval.

Messrs. Baring are employed in this dirty business, and no house in London better knows how shamefully the holders of South American Bonds are treated. Their own contract with Buenos Ayres is a sad illustration. A loan to Buenos Ayres, in 1824, at 85 is worth now about 55, with, or including, only 1501. per cent. more overdue for about 26 years' of unpaid interest. The position in which Baring and Co. are placed, as honourable men, it is needless to mention. This affair of New Grenada, however, is one quite with out parall e l, as your able correspondent will discover on inquiry. It is, in short, a " bill paid," and money wanted to be refunded! This is my apology for again directing your attention to it. At page 42 of Report t Lord Clarendon's letter is a settler of the case ; and if the committee of bondholders give up to Baring and CO., or give back the said bonds to Montoya, Sacres , an Co., there is an end to Lord Clarendon's advocacyread; interference in future.
