Compan Winn. t this diky. this Jay . CORN .EXCEEANGt. METROPOLITAN . RAILWAY COMPANY. (THIS_ DAY.) The leading country markets held•on Saturday were but moderately sepplied with wheat, yet the trade ;ruled heavy, at drooping .prices.' - Fine - barley - realised full quo tations ; but .other kinds , Malt Was unaltered• Oats, beans, peas 4nd flo..tir ruled abou-t-stationary. 9T 99 102 - 104 The half-yearly meeting of this Company was held this afternoon, at the - London Tavern, Bishopmgate street ; W MALIN s, Esq., in thoshair. - - - The report states that the A•ctior the deviation of the line was passed this session,- and the Company were now empowered to construct, the railway from Padding ton to the General Poet_Office. The whole capital has been subscribed, and the shAre - register comPleted. The line was capable of extension so as to connect the- rail- - ways on the north of the Thames with those .on the south, and all with the - post office and the city. The Directors in order to commence the works only await, that more favourable aspect is the political and 'finan- , cial world which they trust may be shortly anticipated, and which will render less over ius to the shareholders the rapid calling up and prompt payment of the capital which the nature of the works will render imperative. The efIAIRMIN said they had been called together that day in conformity with the act of incorporation. The select committee of the House of Commons on me tropolitan railway communications had not yet made their reports, hut he had heard from private and reliable sources that the opinion of that committee would be found entirely in favour of this line as being the great scheme of the day, combining all the objects the metropolis required. After adverting to the finan cial state of the company, which was very good, the ss. call having been found sufficient for their present re quirements, the Chairman said their probable next ex tension would be to the Eastern Counties Railway, and bring that line in communication with the City and West-eiid. He reviewed the present t•tate of railway property, and expressed a belief that before many years had elapsed railways would be made a remunerative property, paying 6 per cent. Amongst the other pro jects laid before the select committee was the magnificent' scheme of Sir Joseph Paxton, but the committee thought this (the Metropolitan line),, the most practical and, in every respect the best adapted accomplish the great objects desired. He was ready to give every in formaion connected with the accounts. 11 11 Lie, —] I Most of our foreign advices state that the business doing: in grain on English account 'is very mOderste, and that stocks of all articles are very le*: Tip to our market last week the arrivals of English grain were moderate. .Fiorn abroad we received 16,828 quarters of wheat, 11,601 bar ley, 49,550 oats, 594 beans; 990 'peas, 9 tares, 8,558 lin seed, 2,265 rapeseed, 760 sundry seeds; and 372 sack; of flour. • ••• ..... 27 - 29 - no Fresh up to-day the arrivals of English wheat, coast wise and by land carriage, were very moderate, and the show of samples was small. Although rather large quan tities cf rain have fallen, the demand for all kinds of wheat ruled heavy, and, in some instances, prices were ls. to 2s. per quarter lower than on Monday last. There were a few samples of new white wheat on sale in various conditions. The finest white was quoted at Vs., the finest red 74s per quarter. some of the samples weighed 611bs per bushel. The show of foreign wheat was good. All descriptions met a dull inquiry, and the quotations, when sales took place, were quite is. per quarter cheaper than on this day se'ennight. Floating cargoes, the arrivals of which have been small, were dell. 12i - 13 23 -24 Geo '"'' ?a —2/ * - ip 57 69 The supply of English barley was small of foreign tolerably good. The sale for most kinds ruled heavy, and prices were the turn lower. Malt was in moderate supply and fair request, at full quotations. We were heavily supplied with oats, and the demand for them ruled heavy, at Cd to is per quarter less money. In beans very little was doing, at barely stationary 132 - 134 8i - 81 2i - 2i ! 2 1 32 93 94 prices. The inquiry for peas was heavy, and the rates had a downward tendency. Several parcels of new were on sale. The flour trade was dull, and the currencies had a down ward tendency. CURRENCY PER IMPERIAL MEASURE. Wheat—Essex & Kent.

It did not ap pear to him, however, that, although the cases were of a serious character, they were likely to present any diffi culties to the grand jury, and, therefore, be felt that it was ❑ot necessary for him to detain them by making any observation in reference to those cases. There was nne case, however, of so much importance, in a commer cial point of view, that he should not perhaps do rightly if he did not say a few words to the grand jury. The charge to which he referred was one against two persons named Davidson and Gordon, who were accused, in conjunction with another person named Cole, who had already been convicted of a similar offence, and was now under sentence, of having carried on a series of frauds cf the most extensive and serious cha racter upon the commercial community. These frauds were of so extensive a character that, but for the high commercial character of the country, it might have really tended to have injured it in the eyes of the com mercial world, and it was absolutely necessary, if they were established against the parties aooused, that an at tempt should be made to repress them by severe punish ment. He bad not had an opportunity of looking closely at the depositions that bad been returned to the court in this case, but he believed the prisoners would be charged with having obtained a large sum of money by the de posit of furged warrants, also with having obtained goods three months before their bankruptcy in anticipation of that event, and also with combining with the man Cole, who, as he had informed them, was already under sen tence, to obta;n money by false pretences. It appeared to him that, if there were anything like the amount of facts that were stated on the depositions there laid before them, they would be bound to find a bill, aad leave the matter to be fully inquired into by the learned judge who would preside. He was unwilling to make any ob servations; with reference to the conduct of other parties in the transaction on the present occasion, but he could not help observing that it was to he regretted that par ties of position, who were mixed up in the matter, had not taken steps entirely to put a stop to the practices of those parties, and that there could be very little doubt that, by their having neglected to do so, they had en abled them to carry on these frauds for a much longer period. 12 ... 8 The grand jury then retired. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.) MANSION-HOUSE. A female named Ann Standen, evidently suffering from distress of .mind, was charged before the Lord Mayor with attempting to destroy herself by throwing herself off London Bridge on Tuesday last. The act was witnessed by police constable 536, and other per sons. The stream was running very strong at the time, and she was carried some distance down the stream towards Billingsgate, where she was received by some lightermen, and taken to St. Thomas' Hospital, where she had remained ever since. The poor woman who walked lame from the injury she had received, said her husband bad deserted her, and having no means of sup porting herself life had become such a burthen to her that she determined to pub an end to her existence. The Lord Mayor after pointing out to her the enormity► of her offence, ordered her to be discharged, and handed ov,r to her friends. The prisoner, who cried bitterly, Raid she would take his lorlihip'rs advice - s and refrain from attempting her life again. 1 , :eo fowl an , s Blot ;;;ley BuckZhams). , Clydes,isle 7, Col.

The prisoners had been drinking and fighting at the White Horse, Moor-lane, and when they were turned out at 12 o'clock at night they commenced fighting in the street. They were taken in charge by Police-constable 150. The woman, who was very drunk, behaved in a violent manner, re quiring the assistance of four men to take her to th• station-house. At the lat er place she bit Police-con stable 130 on the arm. The male prisoner behaved quietly when taken into custody. Both prisoners are well known to the police. The female has been impri soned seven days almost every month for the last twelve months. . _ Sir John Musgrove sentences the female to twenty one days' imprisonment. The male prisoner was cau tioned, and discharged. GREAT WEIGHT OF A PRISE RAM.—A. four-shear Lei cester ram, the property of Mr. T. Hannam, of North Deli;bton, which had won sever al agricultural premiums, has been killed in consequence of taking cold at the Yorkshire Agricultural Show at; Malton. Its weight was 60Ih. per quarter. ABDUCTION OF THE AFRICAN TWlNS.—William Miller, a person in the employment of Mr. William Thompson, the pr'prietor of the African grins, absconded on Tues day night, and carried off these interesting specimens of Nature's freaks, from the Bedfoecl Hotel, Covent-garden, where Mr. Thonipson and his charge were staying. Information has been given to the police, and the offender fully described as being about 43 years old, 5 feet 10 inches high, dark moustache . aisoi whiskers. The twins are five years old, joined at the back. A. reward has been offered for the apprehension of Miller and recovery of the twins. A case has occurred which calls f or attention in these I days o demand fir administrative reform. Si r J o h n 80. fpiliaging a province, h as ma d e a e i lire.

From our own grazing districts- the receipts of beasts fresh up today were but moderate. In their general con dition, however, we observed a slight improvement. The primest breeds moved off steadily, at prices quite equal to those obtained on Monday last ; otherwise the beef trade was in a sluggish state, and the currencies were barely supported. The bullock supply from Lincolnshire, Cambridgeshire, &c., amounted to 1.100 Shorthorns ; from Norfolk 300 Scots ; from other parts of England 400 of various kinds, and from Scotland 130 Scots. We were but moderately supplied with sheep in, for the most part, middling condition The demand, however, far all breeds was in a sluggiAi state, and, in some instances, prices had a downward tendency. The top figure for Downs was ss. per 81bs. Lambs, the supply of which was by no means extensive, moved off slowly, at a decline of from 2d. to 4d. per Blbs. We had rather a slow _ inquiry for calves, at, barely late prices. Pigs sold heavily, at barely late rates. Per Bibs to sink the offals. s. d. s. 3.! S. d. s d.

BOROUGH HOP. Although rather more business has been transacted in hope of the growth of 1854, no improvement has taken place in the quotations, which rule 71. to 111. per cwt. Very favourable accounts continue to reach us from the plantations, and the duty is called 270,0001. to 280,0001. No foreign hops arrived last week. BOROUGH AND SPITALFIELDS. No supplies of fortign potatoes came to hand last week, but the arrivals of English were very extensive, and in excellent condition. Although a large business is doing in all kinds, prices, from the extensive nature of the supplies, are drooping. Inferior qualities are not worth more than from 2s 3d to 2s (3cl ; prime do, 3w to 4s per owt. WOOL. Since the close of the public sales, scarcely any bisiness has been transacted in any kind of wool, and the quota tions are almost nominal. To effect large sales of English wool lower rates must be submitted to. The imports last week were 543 bales from Portland Bay, 200 from the Cape, 730 from Algoa Bay, 600 from Bombay, and 100 from various other quarters. The following are the current rates of English wool : South Down flocks, is Oid to is lid ; mixed tegs and ewes, is lid to Is 3id ; half-bred hoggets, ls 2Ad to is 3d ; do. ewes and welhers, Is ld to is 2d ; Swinton fleeces, mixed, is ld to is i d ; Bent, fine, is ld to is 12d ; Lei cester fleeces, is Oid Co is ld; flannel wool, is Od to is 3d; blanket woo l, Bid to is Oid per lb.

The Lords of the Admiralty are expected at Portsmouth this evening to make their annual inspection. The new screw three-decker Marlborough, 131, was taken out of dock at Portsmouth on Friday night, and placed in the steam,basin to get in her machinery. Mr. Bean. master of her Majesty's .ship St. Yin&nt, at Portsmouth, em barked in the steam-t ug Pigmy on Saturday to lay down moorings at Aldern e y. She sailed in the evening, tow ing the Lively and Duck lighters and the buoy-boat. The Gibraltar steam-transport, No. 183, left Spithead on Friday evening for Woolwich, to discharge condemned stores from the Crimea. The frigate-built Indiaman Blenheim, Captain John Atkinson, arrived at Spithead from the Thames on her way to Calcutta on Saturday morning with detachments of the Bth, 35th, and 81st Regiments. This was the only ship in possession of Spithead on Saturday and yesterday. She is to sail on Wednesday. Lieut.-Colonel Mills, ot the 7th Royal Fusiliers, died at Portsmouth on Saturday evening. The deceased offi cer returned from the Crimea only a few days ago, and lai,ded at Portsmouth from one of the trap sports. The Earl of Durham steam-transport, No. 230, arrived Seithead from the East yesterday afternoon at five o'clock. She left Balaklava on the 18th of July, and Constantinople the 24th. On Thursday, the 26th, she ' receiver! orders from the commander of her Majesty's ship Vulcan to render assistance to the bark Uirundo, transport No. 3, with French troops on board, having been ashore, and still in a dangerous position, on the north-west of the island of Zea. She towed her off into safety, and at 4 p.m. again received orders from the Vulcan to tow the brig Maio, " with mules on board and short of water," up the Dardanelles (being bound fer Balaklava) as far as Cape Abydos, to a place called Chanalla, where she arrived on Tuesday, the 28th, left on the 29th, Malta on the 9th inst., and Gibraltar on the 11th, bringing a mail from that station. The Saxon steam transport arrived at the Rock at 6.30 p.m. on the 12th ; on the same day, 80 miles east of Cape St. Vin cent, the Earl of Durham exchanged numb, ra with the screw steamer Sheldrake and an English barque showing the second distinguishing pendant 8,563, from Cardiff for Constantinople ; on the 14th, off the Rock of Lis bon, the English brig Ayrshire Lass, steering south ward ; the steamer Leipsic, Colburn, master, 9 days from London, with railway truckte, &c., for Balaklava ; and the steam transport Holyrood, Fudge. master, 8 days from London, with shot and shell for Balaklava.

Just before the invalids who came home in the Great Britain from the Crimea were landed on Saturday at Portsmouth, Major Anderson, R.A., the officer in charge, presented Dr. Gilmour, the medical officer of the Great Britain, who had medical charge of the invalids from Scutari, with a letter thanking him for his constant at tention to and skilful treatment of the invalids who had been under his care since the vessel lett Scutaria. Oily one man died out of nearly 200. Dr. Gilmour also re ceived a similar testimonial from the officers of the French troops (1,644 men) conveyed from Marseilles to Karni• esti in the Great Britain, who were under his medical charge. _ _ A correspondent at Southampton, in a letter from Gibraltar dated the Bth of August, has received intelli gence of the arrival at that port of the General Screw Company's steam-transport Jason, Capt.

Saturday was appointed for transferring men from the let Regiment of the Royal Surrey Militia to the line, when the corps were inspected, and, being asked whe ther any wished to leave for the regular army, 176 men stepped forward, and were draughted principally into the Rifle Brigade and the Royal Artillery. Later in the day 60 other men offered themselves for the Land Tran sport Corps, making a total of 430 men who have left this regiment for the regular army since November la-t. During the past week upwards of 20 of the West Suf folk Militia have volunteered into regiments of the line. In consequence of the drain from the country districts of the men into the Militia, it was feared that the sbortite of hands would be severely felt in the agricultural die tricts. In West Essex this difficulty has been removed by an offer on the part of the Lieutenant-C , donel Com mandant of the West Essex (19th) corps to allow any of his men to leave head-quarters for a limited time to assist the farmers in the harvest field.

The propietors of this popular place of recreation, in struction, and amusement, ever intent oa presenting as much variety of entertainment as possible to their innu merable patrons and supporters, have succeeded, we understand, in securing the services of that prince of clowns and posturemasters, Mr. Flexmore, under whos e tasteful directions a fete of a nature hitherto unatte ccPted in this country, and of unexampled attractions, will come off on Monday next.

B. A Campaign with the Turks in. As la. By Charles Duncan, Esq. Smith, Elder, and Co. The critical state of the War in A siatic Turkey, and the probability that unless promp t and decisive steps are taken the whole of Anatolia will fall into the hands of Russia, render the appearance of a work like this exceedingly opportune, since it nar rates the events of that unfortunate campaign which had its disastrous issue at Kurekdere, and lays bare the causes of its ill-success, and the presont state of things in a lively and effective mannei!.. The author introduces us to the principal actors in the campaign, and while bearing cheerful testim , ')ny to the valour of the Ottoman soldier, and tlre pa triarchal simplicity of the Turkish peasant, attri butes the existing crisis to intrigue, the miscon duct and venality of the highest Turkish officers,. and the over s i g ht o f th e a lli es . Th e narra tive of his adventures on his journey from Constantinople to the seat of war is rich in graphic and humorous Illustration, and throws much light on the pecu liarities of the country and the habits and manners of the inhabitants; while his description of the table lands of Armenia, and of the mode of life of th e inhabitants possesses all the charms of skill and novelty. His remarks on the impirtance to Russia, and consequently to Turkey, of Anatolia, and the folly of suffering it to become a prey to the former power, are well worthy of notice ; as also his dissipation of the notion that Schamyl and his predatory bands are able to lend the Allies an appreciable aid. Rarely, in short, h as a wor k ushered in with so few pretensions been more de seeving of public favour, to which, in conclusion, we cordially recommend it. The Journal of Psychological Medicine. John Ohureclill. Among the usual variety of papers relating to mental disease, those respectively headed " The Autobiography of the Insane," based, by the way, on "Scenes from the Life of a Sufferer ;" " Does any analogy exist between Insanity and Demonia cal Possession?" and " On the connection between. Morbid, Physical, and Religious Phenomena," will probably prove most generally interesting. The first presents many touching features ; and to the second an answer is given in the affirmative ; and in the third it is inferred that the philosophy of physical circumstances is largely and decisively recognised by Revelation, and that every human mind is liable, at least, to morbid influences from physical causes. The " Case of Baranelli" is given in full, we suppose as an appendix, and medico-legally considered by the editor, who pin nounces his execution " a foul stain and a damned spot on the intelligence of the nineteenth century," and as likely to " do an incalculable amount of in jury to the advancement of the science of medico legal testimony in cases of alleged lunacy, and sericusly retard the progress of British medical psychology." We should not omit to notice a valu able " Analysis of Guislam's work on Insanity," and a useful paper on " American Institutions for the Insane," containing numerous facts and figures. MYSTERIOUS MURDER OF A CHILD. BRISTOL, Sunday Afternoon.—lntelligence wax re ceived here this morning of a brutal murder having been perpetrated near this city.

Last evening, between 7 and 8 o'clock, one . of the children, a girl named Melinda, about eight years of age, was sent by her parents for conic beer to Cook's Folly, a public. house on Dordham-down. The distance of this tavern from Payne's house is about amile ; and, as the child did not return by the time at which she had been ex pected by her parents, fears were entertained that she might have fallen over the precipitous rooks which fora a continuation of the celebrated St. Vincent's Range.
