MONEY MARKET AND CO:017 AERCIEAL INTELLIGENCE. CITY, Two °Timm% The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday closed steady, without change in prices. The sales were 7 St if) 6,000 bales ( 1 , 000 for ex p ort and 500 on specula- i 12; tion), comprising, in addition to American, 150 Egyptian, sid. to 6d. ; 800 Surat, 311 to 41(1. ; j3i and 50 Sea Islands, 10d. to 121 d. per lb. The Railway Share Market was steady , at a n advance 41 2 ea Monday's rates. Advices from France contain an interesting statement of the Director-General of Customs, concerning the manufacture of sugar from beet-root throughout the realm, with a view to its increased production in consequence of the recent large pur *bases on English account, as well as Belgian and Dutch. The usual stock on hand is about eight million kilogrammes, which is at present reduced to 3,916,325 kilog., although the manufacture of sugar this year is greater by one million kilog., the total amounting to 11,569,999 kilog. The number of factories in operation has increased recently from 197 to 254, and those not in work are reduced from 73 to 17, so that there is every likelihood of the stock on hand soon reach ing its ordinary level, by the increased production of 59 factories, which were last season at a stand still, and one newly built. Telegraphic accounts from Marseilles inform us that ships laden with grain from the East continue to arrive in that harbour, and large quantities are landed. The difficulty of transporting flour in good con dition in Lags for the use of the French army and navy at the seat of war has induced the Minister of Marine to adopt the American plan of packing it in casks, with some improvement by means cf hydraulic pressure. The Chamber of Commerce at Paris have elected a president for the ensuing year in place of M. Legentil, who retires by rotation. Their choice has been fixed on M. Germain Thibaut as presi dent, and M. Ledagre as vice-president. The intelligence from Australia in reference to the gold production is satisfactory, the yield at most of the diggings continuing as large as hitherto. The subject of quartz crushing was occupying con- 1 3 -z t t i siderable attention, and the views of the Coin- 50 mission appointed to inquire into the ma- 10 agement of the gold fields upon the matter g had excited discussion. At Mr. Blackwood's Bt. the returns derived from the employment of good 4 2 12 Machinery exceeded the most sanguine expecta- 10 tions, and as the escorts were bringing down larger St quantities trade was expected to im p rove. Busi- hO . less in Melbourne was very languid. 25 From South Australia the accounts represent the /V demand for all kinds of merchandise as being 50 limited. The growing crops promised an abun- 20 dant yield. Owing to the decline at Sydney and St. Melbourne in the price of flour holders were in- 50 dined to press sales. 9t. The official returns relating to the Trade and 1 1 6 6 Navigation of the United Kingdom for the month 8 ending October 21, in comparison with that of the fit. two previous years, to November 5, have been 25 published to-day. The declared value of all 50 the exports this year is 8,869,594 L, which is St. an increase over the previous year of St. 10 2,384,4391. This is a more satisfactory feature than has been presented in the returns published 20 for a long time past. All descriptions of manufac tures were shipped to a larger extent than in the 10 corresponding period of last year, and the imports St. Were larger of cocoa, wheat, oats, Indian corn, 0 flour, raw cotton, indigo, and flax. Spices It . . generally increased, and also rum, brandy, and st. Geneva sugar showed a falling off. Tea was im - 50 ported to a much greater ext ent ; but of wine a z. diminished quantity waa received. The tonnage 20 of vessels employed in the foreign trade with the 20 United Kingdom was larger, both as regards the r 5 entries and clearances. An increased amount was also engaged in our coasting trade. St. St. The English Stock-Market is exceedingly bony- 2F, ant to-day, and an advance of j to per. Cent. 200 has taken place. This is chiefly produced by the ;(11) closing of speculative accounts, as the settiemeut !O is fixed for Friday next, but the gold arrivais, the accounts from Australia respecting the supplies and other circumstances are fa vourably influencing the market. Consols opened at 88k to 89 for money, but have since risen to 89k. For account the quotations are 891, and for January 89i, f. The public are taking 10 large amounts for investment. Exchequer Bills 40 are 3s. discount. Bank Stock has risen to 210. 20 5 In the Foreign Market the only featur e of im- Portance is the advance in Turkish 6 per Cents., 20 Which axe soi to 81, but the New Scrip is at 3i 18 discount. Spanish Passive Bonds are 6, and 18 Equador si, being firmer. Danish 3 per Cents g are quoted at 82 to 83, the 5 per Cents. 101, and 2 6 Brazilian 5 per Cents. 99. 20 The following are the nominal prices of foreign E docks:_Grenada Deferred Bonds, 6i to 7 ; 100 Mexican, 191 ; Peruvian, 74 to 76 ; ditto Three 25 25 per Cents., 51 to 53; Portuguese Four per Cents., 41 to 46 ; Russian Five per Cents., 94 to 96 ; 100 ditto Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 86 to 88 ; Spanish wo New Deferred, 20 to 20i ; ditto Three per Cents., 20 38i to 39 ; ditto Certificates, 4t04l ; ditto Pas- 5 sive, 6 to 6i. 5 Railway Shares have in several cases improved, 5 especially the Great Northern, Lancashire, and 20 Yorkshire, and Midlalld Scottish Central, how- 4 ever, as well as North-Western and Great Western 20i rule flat.

In reply to a question from me relative to the correspondence, he did not say it was of such a naturo as he had never before received. Mr. Savery said he " would not leave my house by being turned out like a dog," or fiomething to thr. I isql R&ILtTh . Leasink Compan, Ctosing Price, this day. Business this day. London & N. West.

I positively swear I had not a stick at any time in my hand during the transaction, although my servant before the magistrate said I had at one time. I did not strike him over the face and head with a stick. I might ha re struck him with my hand. I was not aware that his f ace and mouth were cut, and that blood was over his shirt. I never saw it, but my servant said she sa , s - a little, and that she saw his face was cut. lam not aware what he meant by reporting me to the Medical Board. I did not state before the magistrate the nature of the wound I had re ceived on:the wrist. Gt.Nrthn. E. Count. Do Gt. Wes.= Ik. Now. & Berw. Y. &NM , Do S. Easton Do Peto &Co Norfolk Do Louisa Smith, servant to the last witness, deposed admitting Mr. Savery on the day in question, and to her being afterwards rung for. On going up she saw the plaintiff and defendant in the library, and plaintiff desired her to show the defendant out of the house ; defendant was using abusive language to the plaintiff. The witness described the defendant's refusal to leave the house and the plaintiff rushing to the drawing-room, followed by the defendant, when the latter's hat was crushed in the door. Defendant used abus.ive language, and I said to him, " Pray don't stand there irritating my master." In the scuffle that afterwards took place Mr. Savery said " You ought to be ashanted of your self ; tam old enough to be your father." Dr. King laid "I know that, and that is why I am ea lenient to you." I saw a stick in Dr. King's hand, hut it might have been the stick of the umbrella. Dr. King does not use a stick. I never saw one in the house. I did not see Dr. King strike Mr. Savery with a stick. I told defendant if he bad gone out of the house when he was requested, this would not have happened.

Darlingt Do Cross-examined—l don't think I said Wore the ma gistrate that my master had a stick in his hand—it must have been the stick of the umbrella_ Mr. Ross, one of the Yeoman of the Guard, and who was one of the eight men who went in search of Sir J. Franklin, said Dr. King was surgeon of that expedition. He met the defendant descending the staixa and heard he doctor request the defendant to leave his house. I said "Come, sir you had better go—the more quietly the better." Defendant said, " That servant (meaning last witness) says I have insulted the doctor." She replied, "Yes, sir, you have, very much ; it is all your fault." I don't recollect the defendant making any reply. I said to him again, " Come, sir, you had better go out ;" and he went down the stairs, and I opened the door, and let him out. He went out, and then wanted to come again, but I put my ehoulder to the door and I shut it. Mr. Bridgman, surgeon, deposed to the wound on the wrist of the plaintiff, and his attending him for it about three weeks. It was a serious wound, and might have resulted in a stiff joint, which would have prevented the plaintiff from following his profession. Evidence was given of the commencement of the ac tion to enable the plaintiff to make his statement before a jury. This was the plaintiff's case. Mr. Sergeant Shee addressed the jury for the defend- ant, in the course of which he adverted to the dexterous course adopted by the plaintiff in bringing this action, and its being tried first to enable him to make a state ment, which he was deprived of doing under the indict ment. He, however, felt satisfied they would not allow their minds to be prejudiced by such a proceeding, and hoped he should be able to show them that Mr. Savery's conduct in this case was such as became an honourable man, who was satisfied the complaints made by Dr. King were unfounded. The learned sergeant then read the correspondence between the plaintiff and defendant in 1854, in which the plaintiff charged the defendant with their business being grossly mismanaged, and the last letter written by hina in May 1855, in which he stated it was neoessary for the credit of the establishment that one of the firm should call on him. Mr. Savory under the circumstances thought it his duty to call on the defendant, thinking there were more serious complaints than a bad gazogene, and a misunderstanding relative to the return of Major Ford's prescription requiring investigation, and accordingly called on Dr. King when that occurred, which was different to that stated by the plaintiff. The learned serjeant then detailed the defendant's statement of what he sail really occurred, and whom he should call to substantiate it—contrasting it with the evidence given by the plaintiff, and that portion of it confirmed by the female servant relative to the crushing defendant's hat. He also commented on the statement of the fe• male servant before the magistrate, when she stated she saw the plaintiff with a stick and an umbrella in his hand, and her evidence to-day. _ Mr. John Taytor Savery, of the firm of Savery and Co., deposed that on the 21st May, 1855, he called upon Dr. King in consequence of receiving the note from him. He was shown into the library. Dr. King said to me, in rather a brusque manner, "Take a chair,Mr. Savery." I did so. Dr. King also seated himself. He asked me if I was aware of the correspondence that had taken place between him and the firm. I replied " Yes." He asked if it was with my sanction. I said "yes." "Then you take the part of your people in this transaction ?" he asked. I said, "Yes, I did ; from inquiries I had made I had every reason to believe they were right." He got up from his chair at that moment, and in an agitated state walked backwards and forwards in the room, and said, "Then I consider that to be one of the most disgraceful, discreditable, and disreputable transactions in any house that calls itself respectable." I said, " Sir, these are very hard words for me to hear ;" to which he replied, " I repeat what I say ; and as a proof of the bad management of your house, the first time I was in your shop was to buy some sulphate of iron, and a more disgraceful preparation I never saw." I said, "Everything appears to be bad in your eyes that comes from my establishment." He then said, " Touch ing that gazogene apparatus, if Captain Thompson is in the house I will call him before you ; I have never mentioned the subject to any one yet." On that he rang the bell, left the room, and went on the landing place, where I heard him ask if Captain Thomp son was in the house. The answer was " No." He returned to the room, and I said I should be happy to see that gentleman any other time. You have sent t fo o r sa nl y ln e for an explanation. Will you hear what I have He said, " No, I will hear no explanation, nor enter into any particular whatsoever." I said, "you have sent for me, sir ; you shall hear what I have to say ;" he said, "he would not ;" rose and rang the bell, violently. The servant came into thr room, when he said to her, " show Mr. Savery my door." I was taken by surprise, and stared with astonishment. I said " I will not leave your house in this manner—to be turned out like a dog." He replied, " You shall," and passing behind me to leave the room, I, not knowing where he w as go i ng , en d eavoure d t o follow him. He opened a door on the same landing and I endeavoured to follow him. Being close behind him, my hat, which was in my left hand, was caught in between the door and the Jam in attempting to enter. My umbrella was in my right hand. Plaintiff opened the door a little. I withdrew my hat, and then he closed the door. I then tapped at the door and asked him to come out, saying to him, " Who are you, sir, that you should send for me in this manner ? Who are you ? You call yourself a gentleman—you call yourself a doctor—you are a disgrace to the profession to which you belong, and I will expose you to every branch of it." The door opened and Dr. King came out with a stick in his hand, (the umbrella being still in my right hand) and laid it across my shoulders, closed in upon me, and instantly threw me down on the ground. I fell on my hack, and whilst in that position he struck me violently with his fist at the same time making use of most vile swearing language. We get up. He was holding my umbrella in his hand. He said, " Will you leave my house." I said, " I will if you give me my umbrella." He said "He would not do it himself, but would do so through his servant." He gave it to the servant, and desired me to go down stairs. I retired several steps down the stairs. The servant followed me, and gave me the umbrella. I said to the servant, "Your master has insulted me most grossly." I left the house, and returned to Bond-street, with my shirt and face covered with blood. Referring to the letters that Dr. King had written to the house, he asked "Was there anything disrespectful in them." I replied "They were written in a tone such as I bad never been in the habit of receiving from any member of the profession during the 30 odd years I had been in Bond street." When I tapped at the door the servant said, "Pray, sir, don't irritate my master, he is a most violent and passionate man." When on the landing-place plaintiff had a stick iu one hand and my umbrella in the other. I did not advance towards Dr. King with the umbrella in a threatening attitude before he rung the bell. I used no words of reproach to him in the library. I never said to him, " You d— scoundrel." I am not in the habit of making use of any suoh larsuage. said I would expose him to every branch of the medical profession. I did not say board, for I know of no such thing. Cross-examined by Mr. James—When the warrante came up I was standing by the chair I had sat on in t library. I attempted to get into t he drawing-room,h and in so doing my hat was crushed.

Mr. Barker, manager at defendant's house of business —I was present on defendant's return from Dr. E:ing. He was In a most agitated state. The first word.s he said was "the fellow has half murdered rne." He had his .handkerchief to his mouth, which was bleeding. He had a black eye, and a black mark over each tena -1 ple. There were spots of blood on his shirt front, and his handkerchief was stained with blood. Cross-examined by Mr. James—lt takes three of four minutes to walk from Saville-row to Bond-street. The eye was quite black. Mr. William Houghton, stationer, Bond street--Saw the defendant in his shop shortly after his return. De fendant was in an excited state, and witness saw several marks on his face. Mr. John Cooper was in the defendants shop. When the defendant returned he had a handkerchief to his mouth. I asked him, " How are you Savery r He said, "as well as a man can be who has been half rnur dered." He noticed that his face was cut and bruised, and that blond was on his shirt. Mr. Charles Savory, son of the defendant, gave simi lar evidence. On the Sunday following (four days after) he came to my bed-room and showed me two marks on the shoulder, as if made with a sack. The deposition of Louisa Smith, taken before the magistrate at the police station, was put in and read, v.herein she stated she-saw a stick and umbrella in the the plaintiff. She was recalled, and explained that por tion of her statement similar to that already given in her evidence in chief. This was the defendant's case. Sergeant Shee having addressed a few words to the jury, Mr. James called their attention to tho evidence ad duced on both sides, and defended the course adopted in bringing the action, to enable them to decide the ques tion on the evidence of both gentlemen, instead of on the cx parte statement of the defendant under the indictment preferred before the Middlesex Grand Jury. He denied that the correspondence complained of contained a per sonal attack on the Messrs. Savery, and charac terised the course pursued by the plaintiff, in bringing before the firm the irregularities practised iuthe establishment as being actuated by the most honourable motives, because it was of importance the prescription entrusted to the defendants should be accurately dis pensed, and ir the instance of Major Reid's complaint a mistake had occurred. The irritation was on the side of the defendant„ and so desirous was the plaintiff of keeping peace, that he retreated from the library and locked himself in the drawing room. The whole of the circumstances showed Mr. Savory was the aggressor. This was an unfortunate quarrel, and it was for them to say who committed the first assault. Lord Campbell, in summing up, said it was satisfac tory to find the jury had heard the evidence of both gen tlemen. He considered they were bound to return a verdict for the plaintiff on the civil action, with very moderate damages. In the other case they would have to consider who first committed the assault, and in the event of their finding it was Dr. King, whether he used more violence than was necessary in defending himself. The jury, after a few minutes consideration, returned a verdict for the plaintiff in the civil actio damages one farthing, and on the indictment returned a verdict of guilty, with a recommendation to mercy. Lord Campbell, in passing sentence on the defendant, said he did not for a moment doubt but that be was a very skilful and honourable man, and was of opinion that he had proceeded in an arbitrary manner in sum moning Mr. Savery to his house. Although he was an educated man some part of the proceedings had shown that his temper was not altogether under his control, and his lordship advised l im to be careful and not get into such difficulties again. In consequence of the re sommendation of the jury he should pass on him a lenient sentence. He sentenced him to pay a fine of 20s. to the Queen, and to be imprisoned until the fine was paid. The fine was immediately paid, and the defendant left the court with his friends. CRIMINAL COURT.—Crhis Day.) OLD COURT. PosT-OFFICE ROBBERIES.

[A portion of the following appear •LL in our first edition.] THE QUEEN V. KING, AND KING V • AAVERY. This was a prosecution and action arising out of a misunderstanding between Dr. King physician, of Saville-row, and Mr. Savery, chemist, ,of Bond-street, of the firm of Messrs. Savery, relative -to certain com plaints Dr. King had made to the firm of the manner in which they conducted their business. , The case was taken at the time before the magistrates at Marlborough street, when Dr. King was bound ov( it to answer any indictment that might be preferred age ►it ist him for an assault. A bill having been preferre. 1 on the applica tion of Dr. King, it was received in' to this court by certiorari. Dr. King subsequently bro ,ht this action, and it was arranged to-day the same Jury should try both cases, and that the evidence in the. _action of King v. Savery should decide both cases. Mr. James, Q.C., and Mr. J. Clerk appeared for Dr. King, and Sergeant Shee and Mr. (3i; fford for Mr. Savery. Mr. James having opened the case, Dr. King deposed—l am a physician,, :residing at 17, Saville-row, Bond-street. In April, 18.53, I had a friend named Captain Thompson staying wi tb. me, who pur chased a gazogene apparatus for me of :Messrs. Savery. It was found to be faulty, and was ret urned to Messrs. Savery fur repair. In the autumn of 1854 I had to complain of the manner in which a press in . ption had been made up at the defendant's establish, ut •nt. In May, 1855, Captain Thompson again visited him. At that time I had every reason to believe my complaints had not reached the heads of the firm, and I wrote a letter on the 21st of May to the fin n stating that it was necessary for the credit of the firm that one of the principals should call on him that day or the following ; that day the defendant came to my house :and was shown by my servant into the room in which I ;receive my pa tients. On entering I requested him to sit down, and on the retirement of the servant I saiiil, " Are you aware of a correspondence that has taken :place between me and your house I" Defendant replied, "he was." I replied, " Then you took a part in that corresps.,ndence ?" He said, "Yea." I said, "I will go over the various transactions I have had." I said, "The first time I went into your shop was to purchase an ounce of sul phate of iron, when I tendered half-a-crown in payment, receiving ls. in change too much, which I returned to the assistant, who said, " You ought to have accepted it." I left the shop without making any' reply, being determined to report the circumstance to you by letter. When I got home I found the sulphate of iron was unfit for use, which broke my confidence in the house, and I resolved not to write to you or take any notice of the two circumstances. I then went on to the other matter, the purchase of the gazogene, which was found to be faulty, and returned for repair, and said "that has never since come into my possession." I went to the third grievance, saying, " Then there is Major Ford's letter relative to the prescription for his wife, of which you did not keep a record." Upon this Mr. Savery rose from his chair and said, "You are no gentleman, a disgrace to your profession, and a d— ecoundrel." I replied, "My case is at an end ; I have nothing further to say to you. Capt. Thompson is in my house, and he will tell you that he knew nothing of the gazogene from the moment he presented it to me." The defendant had an umbrella in his hand at the time, and approached me with it in a threatening attitude, holding it by the middle ; he was almost close to me, and I retreated towards the bell and rang it twice, according to an established rule, that it was for the servant to come to that room ; but before the servant came up I told Mr. Savery that my sole object in sending for him was to prevent Capt. Thompson's family, who had dealt with his house for half a cen tury, being aware of the defective state of the gazogene, but that I would send for that gen tleman, who was in the house at the time. The servant made her appearance, and I directed her to Worm Captain Thompson that I wanted to speak to him. She replied, " I have just let him out of the house." I said to Mr. Savory, " Captain Thompson is not here, and therefore I have nothing further to say— Captain Thompson shall call upon you." He said, "You must hear me explain." I said, "The corre spondence I had had with the house explained itself if he took a part in it," and I declined saying "I was satisfied now the heads of the firm were aware of it." He repeated the epithets that " I was a d— scoundrel, no gentleman, and that he would report me to the Medi cal Board." He had ceased to make any threatening attitude, the servant Wog present. I requested him to withdraw, and he said he would not. I then wont round the table to avoid a collision with him, left the room, and passed on to the front drawing room. He rushed after me and tried to force his way into the front drawing-room. I succeeded, however, in closing and bolting the door, on which he struck the door violently, saying "Como out," repeating again and again the epithets above stated for at least five minutes. The noise having ceased, I opened the door to return to the library, where I had had the inter view with the defendant, believing he had left the house ; but I found he had only descended about six steps of the stairs. Seeing he was quiet, I went to the library, the defendant at the same time rush ing up the stairs, and endeavouring to force him. self into the room, Before I could fasten the door the defendant had thrust his umbrella between the door and the jam, and I lifted my right arm to defend myself, in doing which I received a severe wound of an inch and a half in extent on my right wrist. I then succeeded in crushing the umbrella between the door and the jam, but was prevented from closing it owing to the silk. Savery forced the door open. I resisted his entrance into the room, a scuffle took place, and we both fell down on the landing. I took the umbrella from him whilst he was down, and I said to him "If I let you up, air, will you go quietly out of the house." He said he would, but on his getting up he rushed at me again. I threw the umbrella from me, seized him, and threw him. I asked him a second time if he would leave the house if I let him up. He said he would, and on getting up he asked fer his umbrella, I said, " No, that has done quite enough mischief.' Lord Campbell—You retained that as a trophy. (Laughter.) Witness continued—" When you are out of my house my servant shall giro it you." He continued to ask for the umbrella, and I afterwards gave it to him. He then went down the stairs, where he met a patient of mine named Ross. I said to her, "Ross, see Mr. Savory out of the house." I returned to my room and resumed my occupation. My hand was paralysed, and the wound bleeding profusely ; the ferule of the umbrella had been broken off, and I afterwards found it on the floor in the room, near where I was struck. The umbrella was much pieces —by the cl os i ng o f t h e broken—the whole thing to door. I had not a slick in my hand during any part of the transaction. I went afterwards with Dr. Bridgman to a consultation, sad s howed him my wrist. He dressed it, and attended to ,t for three or four weeks. I had not one action of the wrist for four months. On Wednesday following he received a summons, at the instance of the a t the Marlborough P o li ce - court, defendant, to attend when I attended without counsel or attorney. The de fendant had professional assistance. I was bound over to answer any indictment that might be preferred against nie. I commewed an action immediately after. Cross-examined by Mr. Sergeant Shee—l had no per sonal acquaintmce with the defendant till 23d May, and no cause of grievance other than I have named. The oorrespondencerespecting the differences ceased about Sept. 14, 1854 Between that and May, 1855, nothing had occurred to cause any further disagreement. I did not at the interview with the defendant say, " I con sidered it one of the most disgraceful, disreputable, and dishonest transactions that any house calling itself re spectable could be guilty of." At one part of the inter view, defendent said, "These aro very bard words for me to bear.' That was not after he said the correspond ,,, , .., :011., friend vas r:tit his coneurreecc. I did not say "The filet time I was in your house was when I bought some eulplate of iron, and that it was the most dis graceful pr3paratiPU I had over oen,,, il, mail tio.rocol7 I atw, 20 20 10 10 20 20 31i 10 55 i 5 iii 871 Si 103 49i 50 Pm 7 5 i i Ci I 61 931 4 851 41 231 63 iiiii 66} 7i 22 1 Si 73 I 1! 1 1 311 1 12 19/ I 11 II 7i i lot I ?1. 351 5 ii 21 21 21 15k t 98 3 / 4 93/4 1 all 1 all As. all 1 all 1 all 1 , all XI I all 1I LO all 5 1 ;t. all 31 22 3i 2f 7 44 x a 301 1 16 18k i 18 i 73 5 1 1 &11 .5 I all 1 I all 1 I all 1 all 1 all 1. 120. 1 I ail MISCELLANEOUS. 25 174 Australian Agricult. 26 27 le all Ausizaln.

The supply of English wheat in to-day's market was chiefly composed of Monday's unsold samples. For all kinds we had a very limited demand, at that day's decline in ♦alue. _ _ _ There was a small show of foreign wheat ; nevertheless, the trade ruled hoary, and the quotations wore almost nominal. We had very few inquiries for floating cargoes. The barley trade was dull, and the demand for malt was very inactive. Oats, beans, peas, and flour were in good supply, and heavy request, at Monday's prices. ARRIVALS THIS WRNS. Barley. I Malt. 1,630 670 Wheat. 1,570 Zngllsh .. Irish ...• I Foreign 3 , 1,540 1 " Oats.

The following bulletin was published by the Turkish Government, on receipt of Omer Pacha's despatches at Constantinople : A previous publication announced that his High ness Omer Paella had quitted Soukum-Kaleh with the troops under his orders, and had advanced into the interior at one hour's distance in the direction of Aniklia, on this side of the Ingour. On the other bank the Russians were stationed—they were from 15,000 to 16,000 in number, and wore fortified by means of redoubts and other works. There posi tion was formidable. On the 25th of the month of Sefer the Imperial troops advanced boldly towards _ the river, for the purpose of crossing it, and attp ey c ing the enemy. Arrived on the ban to k, 11 which were received by a violent cannonade, they replied. Carried on by their of the their patriotism, and braving the grapetwo points at ardour and Russians, they crossed the stream on with the the same time, and fell on enemytheanobstinate resist bayonet.

In his first report the general men tions with great praise the conduct of the troops under his orders, and promises that he will send a more complete report. The Military Gazette of Switzerland publishes a statement of the armed force of which the confe deration can dispose in case of war. The federal army, of which nine-tenths are well organised and prepared to march, reckons 115,000 men with 476 pieces of cannon. The militia could reinforce it with from 10,000 to 20,000 men. The cavalry/ though weak, is abundantly provided with hors ,e,s._ A. letter from Copenhagen, of the lltb, in the Cologne Ga ze tt e , says :—" We learn from a good source that the opening of tho Sound conferences has been adjourned solely for the reason that the Minister of the United States ha d received no in structions.

What can be done for our soldiers in t'se Crinteat That is the question which has been asked in a thou* sand forms since we have been engaged in the present sanguinary war ; and this other follows as the natural consequsnce of the first :—What can we do for the widows, the orphans, the helpless dependents of those gallant men who have sacrificed their lives in the cause of their country ? England need not feel ashamed of the reply which must, in justice, be given to either ques tier). In every household in the land. the point has been mooted in a thousand forms. In the drawing-room, in the schoolroom, in the servants' hall, there has been ' but the one thought —the one wish, to carry relief t• the soldier, or, when his brave spirit had been called away, to his widow and his children. The societies that have been formed, the subscriptions that have been raised are material guarantees of the sincerity of the desire. It has certainly not been the fault of the English people as individuals if any grief of this kind has remained with out csnsolation, any distress without relief. The Government has left to the public the office of pro viding for those whom the soldier had left without pro tection. Whatever arguments map' be urged in favour of such a course, the Government may at least be thoughtful, if net generous—just, if not humane. We do not, however, bring any specific charge against it in connection with the matter to which we are about to advert; whatever blame can be in fairness imputed is simply for negligence or error. The point is this :—lf a soldier dies intestate, the sum which he may tease l behind him—the produce el the sale of Lis effects or arrears of pay—is distributed among his children, brothers, sisters, &e., according to the usual terms o the Statute of Distribution of the personal estate of per sons dying intestate. If any of the relatives who are legally entitled to share are under ago, their portions are invested under the special authority of the Secretary of War, in the Regimental Orphans' Savings Bank. When they come of age, and can prove their identity,' &c., the money is paid to them ; but, as we are inform(el, in the vast majority of cases the children are so you ng at the time of their father's death, that lorg before, any little sum to which they may be legally entitled from this source really becomes due they are so scattered about the w(rld, or would find so much trouble in establishing their identity, that their claims drop through alto gether. The tradition in the family of a laundress— widow of a deceased soldier—that in 14 years' time lit tle Bartholomew, who is not yet of strength to turn the mangle, and that in 17 years' time the still smaller Susannah who is only yet of capacity to s uc k th e hot end of an Itali.in iron to the additional distress of her poor mother, will become severally entitled to the sum of 14s. 31 on attaining majority, gradually wears away and is forgotten. When there are no children, but only brothers and sisters under age, any amount left behind him by a soldier at his death is invested in the names of trustees for their benefit in the public funds. Each claimant, as he attains the age of 21 years, can, upon legal proof of identity, &c., receive his portion. It one claimant die before majority, his portion, accord. ing to all due legal forms, goes to increase the portions of the survivors. If all die during nonage, and no other claimant appear, the whole amount, by forfeiture, de volves upon the Crown. Now, with all duo respect for legal authorities, pre cedents, &c., surely this is a case in which a grain of common sense would be worth a pound of l aw. The case of the soldier is a very exceptional case, and such it was acknowledged to be by the Roman law. We will not, however, abuse the reader's patience by discussing military testaments in the olden time, but pass at once to the case of the late gunner and driver, John Ruddock, of the Royal Artillery, who died on the 31st of July of the present year of diarrhoea at Karina camp. Ms few things anJ little articles of property were sold, and the produce of the sale was 21. 14s. 4d. A. formal communication was made from the War -office to a benevolent gentleman who interested himself in the case that his legal representatives could receive the little sum in question on application at the office of Messrs. Cox and Co., the army agents, in Craig's -court. When the agents, in the discharge of their duty —we impute to them no shadow of blame—came to look into the state of poor Ruddock's affairs they found the con dition of his immediate relations to stand thus :—He has left a mother—a married sister—a brother, 17 years of age, now serving with his regiment in Corfu—a second brother, 11 years of age—and two sisters, aged respec tively 13 and 8 years, the three last named actually residing with their mother. Each of the six is entitled to 9s. ld., being the sixth part of the capital sum of 2/. 14s. 4d., the property of the intestate gunner. The mother and married sister take at once, but the re• maining four must respectively await the period of their majority before they can receive their quota of their de ceased brother's estate. Surely a system which leads to such a result cannot be right. If the case which we have so particularly cited, with every detail of place, name, and date, be a fair sample of occurrences of the like kind, we would go even further, and say it is a public scandal, and amounts to downright robbery of the soldier and his poor heirs. It is said, indeed, that when very special grounds are shown, and when th• amount is trifling, the Secretary of War will authorise a departure from the strict rule ; but it appears that al). plications of this kind are so surrounded with forrnali- ties that the exception is practically of little benefit to survivors. Surely some means might be devised for handing the little balance to the widow, the eldest son, or any person who may have charge of the children, without upsetting our legal system. As it is, the English soldier dies for his country, and makes his euuutcy his hcir. ANOTHER INSULT TO A FRENCH SUB JECT IN THE PRINCIPALITIES. A letter from Bucharest, of the 15th, relates the following : "The town of Tergovitz, in the district of Dim bovizza, has just been the scene of a fresh act of violence on the part of an officer in the Austrian ser vice against Dr. Schramm, a medical man in the Walla chian service, son of an officer formerly in the French service under the empire, and himself educated in France and long under the protection of her authorities. Dr. Schramm bad been before insulted in the person of his wife by an Austrian captain named Micoulitsch, an account of which was sent to General Coronini, who, at the demand of the French authority, ordered an in. quiry to be instituted into the affair. On the Bth Nov., the day when the inquiry into this affair was going on, as Dr. Schramm, who had been requested by the administrator of the district to attend, was pro ceeding along the street of Tergovitz, he was rudely accosted by a brother officer of the first offender, a Captain Krafka, who seized the doctor by the arm in a violent manner and asked him how he, a vile reptile and a miserable worthless fellow, could dare to lay a complaint against an officer of the Imperial army. The Doctor quietly replied that he had nothing to do with passers-by in the street, and begged the officer to let go his arm. Captain Krafka immediately released his hold, but it was for the purpose of drawing his sabre, with which he aimed a violent blow at the doctor's head, who, however, parried it with his cane, and was only wounded in the right arm. The doctor then went into the court where the inquiry to the first affair was going on, and gave an account of the outra ge t o w hi c h h e h a d been subjected. In the mean time, the interference of an armed force was found necessary to subdue the violence of the captain, who was raving like a maniac. Another application was made to the superior Aus trian authorities, to which General Lallemand, who commanded in the absence of Count Coronini, re plied that he had already degraded the capta in, or dered him to be brought to a court-martial.
