(TEES DAY.) AND " COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. Two The cotton market at Liverpool on Saturday closed with much animation at generally extreme prices, and in many instances an advance of 1-15 d. per lb. was paid for Americans, ranging from sd. to 54d. per lb. The sales amounted from 10,000 to 12,000 bales, of which 1,000 were taken for ex port, and 2,500 on speculation. Railway Shares generally advanced. Mercantile advices from the Continent this morning present no new feature in commercial tran sactions. There are no arrivals from the Austra lian colonies, although several vessels are due. Accounts from Paris indicate a probable reaction in the state of affairs on the Bourse. Purchasers were acting with caution, which had the effect of checking speculation. The intelligence received from New York this morning by the steamer Baltic, contains the latest weekly returns of the City Banks, and these, as Compared with previous statements, present some remarkable changes. The loans and discounts decreased 1,196,509 dollars, the specie 1,736,267 dollars, and the deposits 3,287,039 dollars. These important alterations had generally the effect of intimidating the speculators for a rise in the public securities, but up to the , latest date the market did not appear to have been much affected. For railway bonds, however, which were freely offered, there was scarcely any inquiry. Large shipments of bread-stuff, were taking place, and the weekly report showed thatlarge qqantities of flour had been forwarded to nearly every continental port. As regards the wool market an active business was doing in domestic fleece, while the operations in foreign were moderate, as the prices ha I rather advanced. Of the latter the imports were mode rate, and the stocks in the hands of the manufac turers were limited. Some complaint was being Made of the high duty which is imposed on this article and which it is remarked is highly prejudi cial to the interests of the manufacturers. The imports of merchand se generally, during the week to September 30, were of the value of 3,164,499 dollars, against 3,438,795 dollars in 1854. The steam-ship Star of the We3t, arrived at New York on the 2d inst. from California, with news to the sth September. She brought 551 passengers, and treasure to the amount of 1,033,427 dollar=. The Sacramento Valley Railway was finished, and a trial trip made on the 18th August. The new custom-house and post-office were approaching completion, and met with general admiration. The monthly return of the Bank of France pre sents some important changes as compared with the previous statement. The metallic reserve de creased 25,428,865 francs in Paris, and 30,869,486 in the branch banks, but the discounts increased 26 ,236,735 in the former, and 22,114,146 francs in the latter. Advances on Public Secu rities were made to the extent of 2,103,100 in Paris,and 401,500 in the departn The notes in circulation were larger by 5,149,900 francs in Paris, and by 3,124,750 in the provinces; but there was a diminution in the Treasury account of 2 9,577,187 francs, while that of private persons increased 26,476,014 in Paris, and 1,939,939 in the departments. In consequence of the very favourable character of the news from the Crimea, the market for the English funds was expected to open this morning with some unusual degree of ex citement, but the feeling has been very partial. Consols were first quoted at 881 to 88i, being a rise of per cent., but they soon went to 881 to for the account, and 88i to g for money. There would probably have been more movement, but for the jobbers being all still busily occupied in settling the past month's account, which is ex tremely heavy. It is as yet too early to learn how much the market will be influenced by the payment of the dividend; but, as to morrow a payment of 10 per cent. on the English Loan, and next week a payment of 20 per cent. falls due, making together two and a half millions sterling, i t is thought that there will not be very l ailch support afforded the market. There is 4 2 s ° much uncertainty as to what the Bank Directors may do next Thursday, opinions being still divided as to whether the rate of discount will not go up. Exchequer Bills ;are 2s. to 6s. dis., and the B on d s 9 8i to I . I n di a B on d s 3s. dis count, 3s. premium. In the foreign market there is rather a large amount of business doing, and the prices are in Most instances buoyant. Turkish 6 per cents. had risen about 4 per ceut., namely, to 81i to 82, and afterwards to 82k, though at the present moment lurked 81g. The rise is attributable to the defeat of the Russians at Kars. The New Scrip, however, has been rather heavy at 3 to 21 discount, o wing to the settlement. Spanish Deferred had advanced to 19g. Sardinian are at 841. Peruvian are 72k, Equador 41, and Buenos Ayres 55, being t full rates. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. are 6 4e, and Four per Cents. 93,1 to 93g. The following are the nominal prices of foreign 1 stocks :—Mexican, 214 to 1 ; Peruvian, 72 to 74 ; ditto Three per Cents., 53 to 55; Portuguese Four Per Cents., 43 to 45 ; Russian Five per Cents., 95 to 98 ; ditto Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 85 to 88 ; Spanish New Deferred, 19k to ; ditto Certifi cates, 4 to The arrangement of the account in the Railway Share Market is attracting chief attention, and the general business is consequently restricted. Still the buoyancy of the Funds has favourably affected prices, which are in some cases per cent. higher. Foreign lines are dull but firm. Mines, Banks, and Miscellaneous Shares are dull.

Two SOLDIERS DRUMMED OUT OF THE TOWER.—On Saturday morning the ceremony of drumming two sol diers out of the regiment stationed at the Tower was performed, in the presence of a vast concourse of spec tators. The men had been guilty of disgraceful conduct, but of what character did not transpire. They wen marched between files of soldiers to the Tower gate... and then, having been ordered to strip themselves o' their red coats and caps, the drums and fifes struck DI the ~B,,,gue'A Marzb," and they were ordered off 11 I , ground, and took their departure amidst the loud ext.- - Srationa of the Nolchery And the populace. 5 5 10 -N) sr, 20 zu 100 100 100 20 20 '0 f W 5 al -31 . • 25 al •1. .r , .0 u a I a 1, 5 • 0 ~ 0 ti 8 40 I 3 2011' 2(1 1 1 1 18 al g. 76 w 1: 20 11 20 11 20 11 00 Z i 25 1! 25 0.1 107 17; LOO 20 RAILWAYS. 101rea . rap Pricz Saturda7. 23 Y 4 3; - 4i 71 7i 16 - 15 14 - 15 9 - 8 87 89 58i 59ixd 111 • - 66 - 7 1.1 - '2. 9,', 9i - 69 49 - 51 16i -17 i 71 -- 73 6t - 7 5. 67 -- 'l9 1 LOO - 102 54 54?. 50 55 65 • • 70 5 - 6 5 6 p, 751 ~ 6h 94 -- 96 921 92 2i id 24 94 84 8 7 - 36 - 38 ••• .. .

Mr. Sleigh, who appeared for the prisoner, said he thought it would be needlessly occupying the time of the court if he were to make any observations. He could not struggle against the facts that had just been stated in evidence. The Assistant-jtulge said he found that there were no less than nine former convictions against the prisoner. The fir# was in 1850, when he was then 13 years of age, and now he was again before him at the age of 18. He thought the presht system of treating convicted pri soners was utterly wrong. Under all the circumstances be shonld sentence the prisoner to four yeari' penal servitude. POLICE INTELLIGENCE—(This Day.)

Witness and Richards got over and pre vented them from committing any further injury, and on the arrival at the London-bridge Terminus he took them into custody. The prisoners were extremely vio lent, and were with difficulty restrained. In answer to the charge, the prisoners said they bad drank a little beer before they left Sydenham among their fellow-labourers, several of whom were about to leave for the Crimea, but they did not intend to insult or injure any one. Mr. A'Beckett said that their conduct was very dis graceful, and be should fine each of them 303., or twenty one days' imprisonment, with hard labour. PR e'.fi'wd:.(ENci , szi[lAit 112 148 • (1 .

A STRANGE CASE.—STEALING A PUBLICAN'S SIGN BOARD.—Two men, named Payne and Porter, the former dressed as a gentleman's servant, were charged with st••aling a sign -board, the property of Mr. Goodson, licensed victualler, the Burton Coffee-house, Freemasons' court, Cbeapside. Police-constable 473 stated that last night, about half past nine o'clock, he saw Payne in Laurence-lane with a dog cart and horse, and shortly after both the prisoners lift a large sign-board into the cart. He went at once and charged Payne with stealing it. On searching the cart be found a quart pot in it belonging to Mr. Adams, of the Shakespeare Head, Wych-street, Strand. He took the prisoners into custody, with the assistance of Police-constable 452. Police-constable 452 stated that when he took Payne into custody, he was very drunk, and assaulted him and another policeman. Porter was a respectable man, whom he had kno mu for five years ; he believed he worked at Mr. Clay's, the printer. Mr. Goodson stated that the sign board in question was hi , : property, and stood against the wall in the court which communicated with Laurence-lane. The policeman stated that the dog cart belonged to a gentleman named Hurst, of Leadenhall-street, who, with a friend and the prisoner, had used the dig-cart that night. Mr. Hurst was called, but was oblivious as to how tf•e dog-cart got into Laurence-lane. He couA only ac count for the circumstance occurring from "stupid fully." They were all the worse for liqu.r, and he had no knowledge of their having called at the Shakespeare, in Wych-street. Porter said he was returning tohis home, when he wi's a ked to assist the prisoner Payne, and he had but just put his tiai.d to the bard when he was taken into ens toidy. He was afraid he should lose his situation. Toe Lnrd Mayor in discharging Porter said he left the court without any imputation on his character, and regretted what had occurred to him through the folly of the other prisoner, bis roaster and his friend. Payne he fined 10s for the assault on the police, and ordered the sign board and post to be given up to the owners. The flue was paid by Mr. Hurst, and the parties left the court. GUILDHALL. SERIOUS CHARGE AGAINST A CITY CONTRACTOR Frederick Collingwood, butcher, of High-street, Isling ton, was summoned before Mr. Alderman Sidney for supplying unwholesome meat to Newgate prison. Mr. Cope, the governor of the prison, deposed that the defendant had the contract for supplying the city prisons up to March next. On Saturday last the de fendant's man delivered a quantity of meat at Newgate prison, consisting of different pieces of beef. The cook directed his attention to two of the pieces of beef, and he saw that in each piece a hole had been cut, into which had been placed three pieces of mutton ; two of the pieces of mutton stunk, and the other piece had maggots in it. By Mr. Alderman Sidney—Complaint had been made to the defendant for sending bad meat on a former occa sion. Meat could be, bought now at the price defendant contracted for. By Mr. Collingwood—The beef waq very good. Mr. Collingwood—The bad meat wag put in by men without my knowledge or consent. Benjamin Sidman, cook at Newgate, deposed to hi s directing the governor's attention to the meat. Th e beef was very good, and the bad meat could only be seen on turning the beef over. . Mr. Alderman Sidney said there had been complaints made by the governor for the last s:x weeks of the bad meat sent into the prison. It was impossible for him to say what the contractor's motives were for sending in such meat. Mr. Robert Pocklington, inspector of Newgate market, described the meat, and the state it was in. The defendant is a great lo er by the contract. He received but 6s. a stone for the meat. Mr. Cope said there was on an average 500 prisoners in the city prisons, and as they an. allowed 3lbs, of meat a week, 1,5001b5. of meat would be required to supply them. Mr. Collingwood said be cut the meat sent into New gatN prison on SAturdav himself, but the men who took it bad suddenly left him this morning, and he was un able to say how tho had meat got into the beef. It was true he was losing by the c )ntract, but he intended to fulfil it honestly. It was not worth his Ahile to attempt such a fraud as this. Alderman Sidney said, if it was not the defendant's motiveto sen.l meat to disgust the magistrates, and induce them to break the contract, he must satisfy him he was not cognizant of the state of this meat when it left his house, or it would be his duty to. commit him. The case was ultimately adjourned on the defendant entering !nto recognizances to give him an opportunity of producing his men to show' the bad meat was not put into the beef before it left his weinises. SOUTHWARK. ASSAULT AND MISCONDUCT IN A CRYSTAL PALACE RAILWAY CARBIAGE•_ - Two labourers, in the employ of the contractors of the Crystal Palace West-end Railway, named Sullivan and Mahoney, were brought before Mr. A'Beckett by Inspectlr Carpenter and Richards, detec tive officers, charged with committing an assault on John Hayward, and grossly misconducting themselves in a railway carriage. Tquiet and i no ff ens i ve -look i ng elderly he complainant,man, saidh Was an engineer employed in the Crystal Palace, and on Saturday evening he came up by the usual train for the working men, and in the nest compartment to which he sat in the two prisoners were making use of disgusting and obscene language. Wit ne..,s merely turned round and requested them to desist, and both of them abused him in a dreadful manner. Perceiving this violent conduct he avoided them, but before the train arrived at the terminus they jumped over the railway into the compartment where he sat, and threatened to throw him out. They knocked him about, and had not the inspector and the other of:6oer been in the adjoining compartment he believed they would have seriously injured him. As it was he was much frightened at their outrageous conduct. Mr. A'Beckett asked whether they were sober ? Complainant replied that he believed they had been drinking, but they well knew what they were about. Their o-nduct caused considerable confusion in the train. Inspector Carpenter said he came up by the same train from the Crystal Palace, and after the train left the building he observed the prisoners' disgraceful con duct in the same carriage. The complainant, who was titan near him, Fequested them to deviiit o when they THAMES. A BAD LOT.—SAVAGE ASSAULT By 1 WO3fAN.— Mary Sullivan, an Irish prostitute, was brought before Mr. Yardley, charged with assaulting Margaret Lacey. Both women, the most desperate and infamous thieves in the district, live in the same house in Hair-brain court, Rosemary-lane, Whitechapel. On Saturday even ing they quarrelled because the prisoner refused to divide some money she had stolen from a drunken sailor who was in veighled into their house. From words they came i to blows, and the prisoner first struck the complainant with her fist and then inflicted a wound on her head with a pair of tongs. The complainant began crying, and the prisoner said, "I'll give you something to cry for," and then took up a large shell and hit heron the eye with it. The woman received a severe gash and her left eye was close d up. She also appeared to have lost a gond deal of blood. Ellen Sweeney, a woman of the town, confirmed the statement of the complainant. A boy named Sullivan, the brother of the prisoner, who said he bad lately arrived in England from Cork, swore that the complainant received the injuries on her head and face at che hands of a policeman, No. 138 TI. who beat her and threw her down several times. The magistrate investigated the truth of this statement very fully. The boy's evidence turned out to be quite false. Mr. Yardley asked if the woman were known. Ruche, the gaoler—l know all of them, your worship. All three are very bad characters. The prisoner was here last week, charged with stripping a German of his clothes. She bas robbed and assaulted many persons. The complainant is also a thief, and very disorderly. Mr. Yardley said it was quite shocking that a boy should come forward and perjure himself as the brother of the prisoner had done. He fined the prisoner 3/. fur the assault, and in default of payment one month's im prisonment. STEALING PEARS FROM A GARDEN.—James Lovett aged 12, and George Smith, 13, were brought before Mr. Yardley, charged with stealing 14 pears from a garden in the occupation of Mary Hunt. Police -constable No. 452 K said the owner of Ole pears, a poor woman who was very deaf, came to him this morning in the Iron-bridge-road, near the East India-road, and said there were two boys in her garden stealing pears. He went to the garden and there saw the prisoners busily engaged stealing pears. He found 14 large and ripe pears upon them. The prisoners were called upon for their defence. They had none to make; and their parents and frieuds not being present they were remanded for inquiries to be made about them. MARYLEBONE. VIOLENT ASSAULTS.—John Black, a carter, residing at No. 53, George-street, Hampstead-road, was charged before Mr. Long with assaulting Robert Gardner, a cab proprietor, and police-constable Hull, S 264. The complainant, Gardner, stated that about five o'clock on Saturday night the prisoner hired his cab in Drummond -street, Euston-square, and directed him to drive to the Hampstead-road. When complainant reached there, the prisoner got out, and said he would return in a few minutes. He came back in about an hour, when he was very druuk. Complainant asked him to let him know where he lived, and observed that he would take him home. The prisoner said he did not wish to go home, and insisted upon being taken back to Euston.square. Complainant drove him to Melton street, near the railway station, where he asked the prisoner for his fire. He refused to pay it, and com menced kicking abd knocking him about. Mr. Long--WLat caused him t , asFault you ? Complainant mid he wai going to run away without paying him. I then laid hold of him, upon which he kicked and struck him (c , nnplainant). I then gave him iitto custody. Tne far was 31. The policeman stated that the prisoner wag given into custody for refusing to pay the cabman his fare. The prisoner remarked that he had not been in any at all. Complainant observed that he did not wish to lock the prisoner it? if he would pay him his fare. He then took the pi i , oner in charge, and placed him in the cab. As soon as the pr soner got into the cab he strug gled and kicked him vi ,, leutly. He called the Cti)111411 to stop, who did so, upon which witness was compelled to have a person in the cab for hit, protection. Mr. A. Fullager, No, 12, Carter-streat, Doct')rs' Commons, corroborated the evidence. The prisoner was fined 205., or in default of payment 14 days' imprisonment, for the assault on the constable, a similar fine for the assault on the cabman, and be was directed t 1 pay the fare with 1a 61 for the cabman's loss of time. VIOLENT ASSAULT UPON FEMALES. —Bruce Perrin, No. 10, Park-road, Regent-park, a person of respect able appearance, was charged with violently assaulting Anne Mahoney, No. 5, Exeter-street, Portman Market (a laundress), Wm. West and Catherine West, his wile, and a man of the name of Ward. Mr. Cooper attended for the prisoner. It appeared that about 11 o'clock on Saturday night the complainants were in the William the Fourth, Exeter-street, where were also the prisoner, his brother, and father. The prisoner made a remark about the nose of Mr. Mahoney, which was rather of unusual proportions. Mr. Mahoney remarked, " Never mind about his nose, it is an honour to his face.'' He was requested to leave the complainant's company, upon which it was alleged .he had intruded. Mrs. Mahoney opened the door. He was laid hold of by the prisoner's brother, when they both fell while on the ground. She was struck by the prisoner. When she got up the assault upon her (Mrs. Mahoney) was renewed, and who stated that she had several bruises about her person, and that she then felt the effects of the attack upon her. The complainant (West) and his wife also deposed to a series of assaults upon them. The latter said that her gown was completely destroied, and that her petticoat was also torn. The prisoner was drunk, and expressed him self in very unbecoming language. Mr. Cooper said in behalf of his client that the dis turbance arose in consequence of some chafing " that arose between the prisoner and Mahoney, who, to the remark he made about his nose observed, but you have a moustache." Mr. Long a4ked Mr. Cooper if he had any witnesses. In reply he said he had not. The prisoner was fined 40s , or in default of payment a month's imprisonment for ti e awsault on Mrs. West, , r 14 days for the assault on Mr. Mahoney, and 10s. or 7 seven days for the assault on Mr. West.

ALL'S WELL THAT ENDS WELL. The incidents connected with the Cesarewitch have been so talked about and discussed in all their bearings on past and future events that it is impossible to dis cover a;.ything new to say about them, or to add a single interesting item to the stock of information which has already been placed before the public in the daily and weekly papers. Mr. Sykes at length fulfilled the expec- tations which his owner ever entertained of him, but the frequent disappointments which the horse occasioned him, doubtless prevented Mr. Clark from carrying out his oft•repeated determination of giving the ring "Jack up the Orchard." I don't exactly know what dreadful threat those words convey, but should Vander mulin win the Derby I shall perhaps be better informed. It was really quite pleasant to see how warmly Mr. Clark was congratulated after the race, and winners and lovers lent their voices to swell and prolong the loud huzzas. Re, however, did not "stand" Mr. Sykes for a very large amount, and it is said that his winnings in bets do not exceed 8001. The gentleman who " leased" Mr. Sykes is the principal gainer, having tried the horse to do a "great thing." The Ring generally lose on• the race, albeit some of the "smaller fry" "saved" the horse, whilst others kept him harmless. Mr. Adkins and party, to whom Mr. Sykes was let last year, were heavy losers, having faith in nothing but what. they erroneously supposed to be the horse's utter ba lness. Their prejudice, however, was perhap, well grounded, for I believe that the horse wou:d nt4; have won the Ce , arewitch if he had not run at Egham a,,,a accidentally discovered how improved he was. F.rtunately, too, his performance there was after the w.'ghts were declared. When a two-yrs-old Mr. Sykes was most highly tried, but not until the past week (Id he display the racing ability which his owner always as serted he possessM. Indeed he was popularly deemed a cor, ' and incapable of staying. Great credit is due to J. Dawson for the blooming condition in which tie hcrse was sent to the post. So frequently do th, Newmarket people make mi, takes that an instance of the correctness of their joti,:- menu must be recorded. Tbriugh good and through evi! report they adhered to Crown Pigeon, and always expressed their opinion that he would beat all the thre, yr-olds. He is deservedly the first favourite for tht. Cambridgeshire, and according to Mr. Sykes's running on Thursday he seems likely to win the last great handicap of the season. Poor little Plumb, however, was severely ceni.ured by his master for the use which b. , made of the horse, and was blamed for persevering tf: the end. The lad, however, said he didn't know he wa, beaten, and thought, when he entered the cords, thai he should win easily. Down to the very hour of starting, Mr. T. Parr ex pressed his confidence in Robgi ll's chance. His judg ment was, however, at fault, and people are suspicious and ill-naturtd enough to assert that this error was inte► - tonal. Robgill certainly seemed incapable of staying. and was in difficulties on g ing over the " choke jade." If Saucebox's running at Doncaster was not a mistake , altogether, the forward position which Lady Tatton ob. tamped strengthens the opinion which was widely enter tained that Saucebox would have been a very formidable opponent to Mr. Sykes. Siding proved the impostor I always believed him to be, and Aaron's " chaff ' about his being trained on potato peelings is likely to a be stand ing joke among the Manchester men. Bing Tom's rac ing career is brought to a conclusion ; he broke down at the brushes hill when, as Chatterton asserted, he wa going a.; well and as "comfortably" as any horse in the race. Both Monarque and Sultan are good horses, and although they were defeated they were not disgraced. The particulars of the race have, however, already been published in The Sun, and, as I heard an experienced jockey remark on perusing them, they could not have been more accurate if the reporter had ridden in the race. The last scene of all connected with the Cesarewitch will be played out at the corner this afternoon. It will be devoted to the settling, and it may be suggestive of Who is the Dupe? The steepleclia-e season will be inaugurated at Wrt wh.k on Wednes.lay, but the "event" is at present rt garde,l with indifference. Some little attention bas liken directed to the handicap which will be run for to ftw, but Mr. Sykes bas stopped specuiption, Should he he i• taaided," he will, I fancy, follow up hi, succes.ea. Ido iof know whether Pole Star will 1,, allowed to :Aline. The other noteworthy names air Poodle and Jack Leemiug. The running of the lattar wil!, of course, (lepend materially on the i tentions ui the Mr. Sykes' party. Either Speed the Plough or Ma: of War may carry off the Welt. r Cup.

On last Saturday morning Mr. Anderson, the Wizard, gave what was termed in the bills a "Special Scottisi: Performance," many of the Scottish nobility being pre sent. The Wizard himself appeared in full Highland costume, and went through his performance in that at tire. That the representation might be thoroughly na tional, the orphan children of the Caledonian Asylum had been invited, and were present in the upper boxes, " All plaided and plumed in their tartan array." At the conclusion of the performance they were marched down upon the stage, there to have each a flag, a bun, and a glass of wine. Fourteen of them stood promi- nently forth from the rest, and were specially introduced by Professor Anderson Ps the children of Highland sol diers wuo had died in upholding the fame of England in the Crimea. We understand that eight more children similarly circumstanced, are to be admitted to the asylum next Wednesday. When Mr. Anderson alluded to the story of their orphanhood, tears stole into the eyes of the youngest, but the elder boys, when called upon t, give their cheer for the Queen, gave it in a manner which proved that they were ready to emulate the bravery and patriotism of their pareots. Mr. Andersoa's morning entertainment on Saturdays is one of the most iatere-t -ing sights in London, while his evening performances are, if possible, more attractive than ever.

AURORA. BORE/ULM—On Tuesday night the north western quarter of the heavens was illuminated by a brilliant aurora, which extended from the visible hori zon several degrees towards the zenith, with here and there a more brilliant pencilling of rays, which conmq cated more or less as they shot upwards. It was the first decided symbol of approaching winter we have ba d, and yesterday felt keen and frosty.—Gl asgow Da i ly Mail. MINES.— To the mere casual observer it may seem matter for surprise that, whilst the greatest depression exists in Government securities and in railway stocks, mining shares are not only ;well supported, but are more sought after as means of investment, as well as of specu lation. Railway stocks, which for a time were the prime favourites with all who bad money to invest, and were the principal shares deal in by by the Stock Exchange body, are in a manner "used up,' and are declibing as much in public estimation as in profitable returns for the money kiirested them.--Miltis9 Jortml.

The quotation in sup. port of this is sufficiently remarkable, and on a perusal of Mr. Jackson's paper many will be dis pcsed to concur with him in thinking that, " con templated as a lucide, her every thought and achievement is perfectly and easily explicable, and her whole life constitutes but a beautiful episode in the history of interior illumination, while without it she seems but like an unaccouniable and meteoric manifestation sent to dazzle and blind, not en lighten." Among a number of interesting contri butions may he noticed those in which cures by the agency of mesmerism are recorded. These are of so extraordinary nature, the diseases for which the parties were mesmerised being generally ex ceedingly difficult to treat successfully by ordinary methods—delirium tremens, for example, the cure by mesmerism, after opium had failed, of a sev ere case of this frightful disease being communicated by Dr. Elliotson, under whose superintendence it vas effected. The remainder of the number is de voted to the vindication and exposition of cerebral , ihysiology a n d mesmerism—an elaborate "Ph reno- Examination of Marshal Radetzky,' byDr. Castle, contributing to the former. Journal of Public Health. Samuel Highley. A well-timed editorial note, des , rving of careful perusal, on "Sanitary Legislation," points out the lirections of the labours of the true sanitary re t4iner, the fourth and last of which is, "in giving free scope and enc luragement to tho-e mechanical arts which tend to improve the beauty and conve aience of towns and cities, to lessen muscular la i•our and to increase the comforts of the poor roan's home, and in instituting such an elevated class of amusements and occupation for leisure ;foments as shall make the heart more happy and `he mind less animal." Another editorial note points out the main physical and moral errors in our workhouse system ; while a third treats on " Burials in Charcoal," and dec'ares that the use of - hat destroyer of animal matter is absolutely indis pensable in the common graveyard. In another paper the manufacture and cost of charcoal for sanitary purposes is the subject of inquiry by a eAltributor. A useful "Dictionary of Foods and Drinks" is continued, and " The Sanitary Regula tions of Ancient Rome " are presented to the reader's attention. In addition to the above will tie found a large amount of information respecting , pidemics, including the transactions of the Elm.- lemiological Society of Londe'. he Journal of Physiological Medicine. John • Churchill. The October number will be found inferior to none of its predecessors in variety of information respecting cerebral disease and its various develop nents, accompanied by philosophical remarks thereon, and indications of the most eligible modes of treatment. Among the numerous papers may n o noticed a very interesting one on the "State of Lunatic Asylums and the Insane in Ireland," from which we gather that the inspectors speak highly of the benefits which have resulted to the insane from bringing them within the sphere of religious instruction, " and that since tha Report of 1851 there has been a decrease in the number of insane to the extent of 1605," a decrease '' attributable to the decrease of insane in poor-houses and gaols 1" The subject of in in connection with religion and education, and more especially the former, is treated several p ip-rs with much ability and fairness. Not the leastimportant contributionQ, however, are r -14 - so respectively h ea d e d, "O n t h e P. -H ey of Main ;tinitig the Lim.ts at present imposed by Law on t!te Criminal Responsibility of the Insane " and "Claim of Pribrity in the Reformation of the Treat !tient of the Insane," the drift of w Bich may readily surmised.

The work t•auslated front the manuscript ~f the author, by Mr. J. E. Taylor, and may be rogarded as a continuation of a larger work on Trans-Caucasia. In it will be found a narrative of lie past history and present condition of the Cau -asiati tribes, including the career of Schamyl and he Murids, together with a key to the policy of Russia, and the hindrance offered to her ambitious tiros and aggressive prcgress by these countries.
