In consequence of her royal highness's ~i t thday falling on Sunday the customary honours of the ring of royal salutes from the corporafon ordnance at Fort Belvedere and the Royal Adelaide frigate on Virginia Water were deferred until to-morrow (this day). The Duke and Duchess of Marlborough arrived 14 St. James's-square on Saturday, from passing the Easter r ecess at Blenheim Palace. . Lord and Lady Templemore have arrived at their residence in Bruton-straet for the season. The Hon.

CORN EXCHANGE. glected ; nevertheless, there previous rats. For cakes thi are no sellers excapt at quite ere is a steady demand, at full The leading country markas held on Saturday were firm for good and fine qualities of wheat, at about previous quo titions ; but damp parcels were offering on lower terms. There was a fair business doing in fine barley and oats. Other kinds was dull, and easier to purchase. Beans, peas, and flour ruled about stationary. The continental market!, generally, aro heavy for all kinds of produce, at drooping currencies; but at New York, the export demand is still rather active. Very little English grain reached to our market last week. From abroad we received 29,281 quarters of wheat, 7,254 barley, 73,457 oats, 1,650 rye, 363 beans, 930 peas, 60 tares, 3,626 linseed, 312 rapeseed, 370 maize, 140 sundry seeds, 3,265 sacks aid 1,215 barrels of flour. Fresh up, to-day, the arrivals of English wheat were much restricted, nevertheless, a fair portion came to hand in fair, though by no means fine, condition. For all good and fine qualities, the demand ruled stntly, and prices were supported. Other kinds, however, met a dull inquiry, yet there were no sellers except at prices quits equal to those realised this day se'nnight. We were extensively supplied with foreign wheat. Generally speaking, purchases were made in retail, and to meet actual wants, yet previous rates were quits main tained. In the value of floating cargoes'of grain no change took place. The demand for them, however, was far from active. Fine barley was scarce, and quite as dear as last week. Inferior parcels, with which the market was fairly sup plied, were very difficult of sale, even at fully the late de cline in their value. Malt changed hands to a limited extent, at previous currencies. Although the supply of oats was large, all kinds were in good request, and prices advanced 6d per quarter. The show of beans was much restricted, and the quota tions were fully maintained. quotations.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. A BARRISTER CHARGED WITH ASSAULTING AN Ix- SPECTOR.-Mr. William Robert Brown, who described himself as a barrister, of 25, Eaton-place, St. John's Wood, was charged before Mr. Selfe with assaulting Inspector Holden, of the C division, as follows : Inspector Holden said that at a quarter to four the pre vious morning, hearing a great noise in Panton-street, he went to the spot and saw the defendant and an unfortunate female together, the defendant being intoxicated, and hav ing his arms round the female's neck. He bid the defen dant to:move away, upon which he raised his umbrella and struck him a severe blow across the shoulders, the umbrella coming in contact with the rim of his hat, and thus saving his head most probably from receiving a severe blow, the umbrella being broken in two. He then, with assistance) took the defendant into custody, when he became very vio lent, and while the charge was being taken at the station the defendant said " You have escaped it this time, but I'll giTe you a black eye next time I meet you." Defendant—l did not know that the man was a police man. Mr. Selfe—But you knew it when you got at the station. What are you ? Defendant—l'm a barrister—that is to say, I'm reading for it. Mr. Selfe—l'm sorry to hear it. You are fined 50s. or 10 days. ROBBERY OF PLA.TE.—Harriet Wills, described as a milliner, was charged with steaiing some plate, the pro perty of Mrs. Jane Ramsden, of 17, Queen-street, St. George's. Ramsden said the prisoner occupied a part of her apartments, and assisted her as a dressmaker. On the Ist of April, at nine in the morning, she left the prisoner at home, and on her return in the evening the prisoner was gone, and she had seen nothing more of her till the pre vious evening, when she missed two dessert forks, five silver spoons, a pair of sugar tongs, and other articles of plate, besides other property. The articles produced were only a portion of those. The value of the pro perty she missed was about £5. She met the prisoner in a street in Oxford-street, and gave her into custody. Mr. Alfred John Melhuish, pawnbroker, 15, Duke street, produced some articles of plate pledged by the pri soner on the lst of April for M. _ _ _ Brown, 63 C, said the prisoner owned to taking the forks but not the spoons, He found some duplicates on the prisoner relating to the forks and some common spoons. Committed for trial, prisoner saying nothing. TIIAMES. SUMMARY JUSTICE ABUSED.—Charles Evans, a young man, st Aid by the police to belong to the Keate•street gang in Spitalfields, was brought before Mr. Woolrych charged trith - eteallng a prime piece of beef, weighing 71b., from the shop of Mr. Jacob Sulan, butcher, of No. 22, High street, SVhitcchapel. Mr. Sulan stated that at 10 o'clock on Saturday night, while his shop was full of people and he was very busy, a female servant who was behind the counter called out to him, " There's a piece of meat going." Ho turned round and saw the prisoner removing a piece of beef from one of the hooks. The prisoner succeeded in taking away the beef, and not knowing the neighbourhood well, ran down Pickford's yard a few yards from the shop, in which there was no thoroughfare. He pursued the prisoner, who, finding there was no outlet, threw away the meat at the end of the yard, retraced his stops, and was stopped by the son of witness, who secured him. Mr. Sulan, who has been a great loser by the depreda tions of thieves, then produced the beef, and said he would have given the prisoner a sound thrashing, and not have troubled the magistrate with the case, but if ho had done so it was probable he should have been abused by all the old women in the street. He lost a side of pork a little while ago, caught the fellow with it, and gave the thief a good hiding, for which he was abused. Mr. Woolrych—That was summary justice abused. You had better bring the thieves here, Mr. Sulan. The prisoner pleaded guilty. Mr. Woolrych—This is a very impudent robbery. You are sentenced to be imprisoned for two months, and kept to hard labour in the Nouse of Correction. Colonel and Lady Caroline Towneley have arrived at their residence in Charles-street from Paris. Count and Countess De Bergen and the Baron Mocreirinah have left the Brunswick Hotel, Jermyn-street, for Paris. A letter from Cracow states that Baron Buklar, a Prussian subject, and writer in the Cracow Gazette, had received orders to leave that city, where he had resided for many years, within 48 hours. REPRESENTATION OF MARYLEBONE.—The return ing officer has fixed Wednesday next for the nomination of candidates who are desirous of the honour of representing this borough in Parliament. The nomination will take place, as usual, on hustings erected at the top of Portland place. There are now five candidates in the field, all of them professing Liberal principles, viz., Mr. llarvey Lewis, Mr. Wingrove Cooke, Mr. Harper Twelvetrees, Mr. E. Auchmuty Glover, and Mr. J. C. Marslmen. Both Major Lyon and Col. :Romilly have declined to be put in nomi nation. In order that there should not be anything like a split in the Liberal camp, Mr. Harvey Lewis has expressed his readiness to abide by the decision of a public meeting of the electors convened for the purpose; but there will be scarcely time for such a proceeding. DREADFUL FIRE IN DUBLIN—ELEVEN LIVES LOST-DUBLIN, April 14.—Last Sunday Dublin was ex cited by the dreadful omnibus accident that occurred at Portobello-bridge, and this morning an equally fearful catastrophe took place—namely, the burning of a house in "Patrick-street," and the loss of 11 lives. It is said that this fearful accident was caused by drink. A man who in • habited the upper storey went to bed drunk, and uncon sciously Eet the curtains on fire, when the flames soon spread all over the premises. The Tribunal of Correctional Police on Friday tried a married woman named Cordier for receiving money which she must have known to have been stolen, and her husband and two brothers named Tournier for having as saulted a police-offieer sent to arrest her. A little boy, 9 years of age, named Vallot, was placed in the witness-box. " You stole 45f. from your father I" said the President. "Yes," answered the boy. "On going one morning to my father's chamber to say good day, I saw his waistcoat on the floor, and on picking it up 45f. fell out. As he was asleep, I took the money." " And what did you do with it ?" " I carried 40f. of it to Madame Cordier, who kept a shop, and told her to give me fried potatoes, barley sugar, and gingerbread for it." "And what did you do with the other sf. ?" " Spent them in riding on wooden horses in a booth!" " What did the woman give you for your 40f. ?" " One day she gave me, my brother, and an other boy If. worth of fried potatoes, the next day 8 sous worth, and the third lf. 4 sous worth of barley sugar. She then told me all the money was spent, and that I could have nothing more." It was then stated to the tribunal that the boy's father having complained to the police, an officer was sent to queston the woman, but he learned that she and her husband had hastily sold off the goodwill of their busi ness, and wore about to take the Lyons railway to go to Savoy, their country. The man were to the railway station and presently the woman and her husband, accompanied by the two Tourniers, their friends, arrived. lie advanced to wards the woman to arrest her, but she ran away, and when he wanted to run after the three men held him, and Cordier struck him. Two other policemen, however, came, and the three men were secured , the woman also was captured. In a basket carried by the latter was a sum of 1,010 francs. The Tribunal condemned Cordier and his wife each to three months' iraprie9nulOtt and the twQ brothers to a I ,OrtaiSilt each, 1861. LINES LEASED AT FIXED RENTALS. Railways.

Yesterday a destructive fire happened in a large double house, the property of Mr. Christopher Keel, but lot out to several families, in what are termed tenements, situate at No. 2, Faleonberg court, Crown-street, Soho-square, a densely popu lated and narrow thoroughfare. From the inquiries made on the spot it appears that a man named John Ashman, who lived in a backhouse forming a portion of the same premises, whilst standing in the yard, noticed smoke pouring through a small square window over the first floor. Not being exactly convinced whether the premises were on fire or not, he ran off to George-yard en gine -station, and requested the firemen to proceed to the premises and see whether the house was on fire or not. Flexmore, one of the firemen of the brigade, upon going to the spot, found a woman named Catherine Bryant, with a baby in her arms, crying for help, the smoke at the same time com pletely darkening the court in front of the house. Flexmore, having borrowed a ladder from a neigh bour, placed it in front of the building, and seizing hold of the female and (_:11:," he carried them down in safety. A man named George Holman broke open one door and rescued Charles Kell, but un fortunately, during the excitement which pre vailed, it was forgotten that three children, who had been locked in a room on the second floor. had not been rescued, and consequently, not having been heard to cry, were left to perish in the burning house. As soon as the smoke had somewhat passed away, the firemen upon entering the second floor discovered three children lying on the floor crouched together, not at all burnt, but apparently insensible. Mr. Staples, the foreman to the bri gade, at once sent off for surgical assistance, and Mr. Bannister, surgeon of Oxford-street, promptly attended, and upon examining the children he pro nounced life in each case extinct, the childrEnhavin g perished not from the effects of burning but from suffocation. At the time of the outbreak there were 29 per sons in the house, and it seems a miracle that se veral others had not been lost. The bodies of the unfortunate deceased were removed to the dead house of St. Ann's parish to await an inquest. A 2'URKISII BATH IN NUBIA. When I had taken possession of the house as signed to me, feeling irritable and feverish after the fatigue of the journey, I suggested to Ibrahim Effendi that a Turkish bath would be a great luxury. He said that he would order one; and leaving the room, he presently returned, telling me he had given instructions for a bath to be brought to me in the evening. A Turkish bath to be brought to me ! What did he mean ? Oh ! it was not the kind of bath in use in Egypt, but of a portable de scrition, which would answer my purpose just as well, and which I must be content with, as there were no public baths as in Egypt in the town. The aesha, or supper, having been served at about seven p.m. a couple of hours later, feeling weary, and inclin ing to retire for the night; our old landlady entering, announced that the bath had arrived ; on which Ibrahim Effendi, who had kept me company, retired to his apartments on the opposite side of the way. The old woman, who had disappeared, now returned in company with a young woman, attired in a " ferde," or large scarf of white muslin. relieved with red fancy borderings, and as black in the face as night, furnishing sufficient proofs of her negro descent; this damsel held in one hand a small wooden bowl, and in the other a teacup. The old lady, wishing me a good night, replied to my question as to where the bath was, by pointing to the objects in the girl's hands, saying, " These, sir, constitute the bath, and this regress will apply them." Curious to learn how I was to bathe in so small a vessel as either of those produced, on examining them, and questioning the sable maid, I found that the wooden bowl contained dough, and the cup a small quantity of sweet oil, scented with aromatic roots ; the former of these, well rubbed on the bare skin, cleansed it; after which the per fumed oil was applied, the whole operation being called the " dilka . ," After a little consideration, although not much liking the idea of being smeared with oil, I submitted to the operation, and folind its effects much less unpleasant than I anticipated. The following morning I awoke quite revived ; the feverishness had entirely subsided; and with a calm pulse I felt a universal cool and refreshing sensation through my limbs and body.—Petheriek. 2111 S DAY'S SHIPPING.

THE YELVERTON MARRIAGE CASE.—This cele brated case will be agsin brought before the Court of Com mon Pleas, Dublin, during tho ensuing term, which com mences to-day. It will on the present occasion be discussed before the full court upon except ions taken by tl - ie defend ant's (the Hon. Major Yelverton's) counsel to the charge of Chief' Justice Monahan in laying down the law to the jury. The exceptions have reference both to the Irish and Scotch marriage, and allege that the learned judge should have told the jury that there should be undoubted evidence that the defendant was a Protestant to render the Irish mar riage void, and then to prove the Scotch marriage he should have told them that there should either be evidence in writing by the parties themselves to prove it or other clear evidence wholly independent of the parties. Whatever de cision the court may arrive at, the case will no doubt go to the Court of Error and House of Lords.--Saunders News. In a letter from Naples of the sth we read : "DT. Meuricoffre, consular agent of the Swiss Con federation in this city, has just been nominated Consul-General. The late King Ferdinand would never consent to give that title to any but the re presentative of Maritime Powers. This nomina tion, combined with those of MM. Hirzel and Gouzebach as :Helvetic Consuls at Palerino and Messina, confirms the recognition of the kingdom of Italy by Switzerland. It, moreover, leads to the supposition that the other European Powers will probably appoint here Consuls-General to replace their legations which have been withdrawn. The Normal Schools of Naples were inaugurated yesterday in presence of Prince de Carignan and M. Nigra. Two speeches were delivered; one by M. Ambriani, and the other by Professor Scavia, the former containing the promise that much §hould be done for popular education. LO V.?, URI? kl?. AND 2:TEMPTED SUICIDE. -_____v_ The following' is a condensed report of one of the most romantic an extraordinary cases of murder and attempted suicide thatilas ever happened in Paris. It is oiler all simply an affair of two lovers agreeing to the together—a catastrophe so common in France as to be in itself scarcely worth recording. But the circumstances of this case are so remarkable, so " thoroughly French," and afford so much food for the moralist, the student of comparative jurisprudence, and above all for the student of the problem of death and its terrors, as to stand forth distinguished from other causes celebres in the like category. The lever who killed his mistress, and beyond all doubt intended to kill himself, is Corporal Rouard, of the Gth Regiment of the line. He was a well-conducted and intelligent soldier, and his education was so far above the common level, that he had filled the office of librarian to his reg , - ment. his age is 27. At the end of last year, his seven years' term of service having expired, he voluntarily deter mined to serve for another term, and received the re-enli::- mout of 1,000 f., \Thieh in his case, as in that of many others, has teen in point of fact a curse instead of a Lenelit t) the rrci,:,irnt„r'ufflce it to say that Rouard, like tco many others, finding himself in possession of a sum of money such as he never saw before, and never could hope to see again, determined, as an English soldier in like case would be apt to do, to " knock out life" with it as long as it lasted, and to enjoy a sumintom bonum of sensuality beyond his wildest dreams. The story, of his saturnalia is told by the summary of the report of the advocate-general to the Paris court-martial, before which he was brought on April 11, and of which Colonel Pinard, of the 34th Regiment, was president. The statement of this report was in every es sential particular borne out by Rouard's statement on his examination, and by the dying declaration of his mistress, Denise Herbin. On Dec. 2 last Corporal Rouard made the acquaintance of Denise Herbin, an artificial flower maker, of the Rue St. Denis—a pretty girl, only seventeen years old—at the dancing rooms called the " Grand Salon," in the Faubourg Poissonniere. They took a fancy to each other. Rouard had a lodging in Paris, in which he installed Denise, and he gave up to' her every moment that he could spare from his military duties. As long as his re-enlistment money lasted, which was only a few weeks, they led a joy ous life, and troubled their heads little about the future ; but when the purse was nearly exhausted the soldier per ceived that he was seriously in love with the girl whom he had only thought to make his temporary mistress. He had been guilty of deceiving her as to his position in life; for, instead of admitting that all the wealth he had in the world consisted of his re-enlistment money, he had represented, himself as having some private income, and had promised to allow her permanently 50f. a month—a large supplemen tary revenue to an ouvriere of the Rue St. Denis. This mis representation made it the more painful for him to break with Denise, which he felt it absolutely necessary to do It was not till the very last day of a leave of absence which he had spent in her company, that he summoned cour age to broach the subject. He began by asking her the question, "In what way do you love me ?" She gave a true woman's answer—" I love you because I do love you; if you abandon me I shall be found at the Morgue" (mean ing that she would commit suicide.) The idea of suicide then rose in his mind. He afterwards repeatedly told her that she must leave him ; but her unvarying answer was, " Where you go, I will go; and if you die, I will die with you." The lovers at length agreed to die together, They made up their clothes into separate bundles, which they ticketed with the names of the re lations whom they intended to have them, and then Rouard wrote three letters; one to his father, another to his sergeant-major, and a third to a sister of Denise, an nouncing their intentions. While the above preparations were going on Denise asked Rouard what sort of death they should die? "We will die," he replied, "as we began. We will die in a moment of happiness. We were first in timate at the Cadran Bleu, there let us finish our career. In order that death may be prompt, and that no one may come to rescue us, I will plunge the poniard into your bosom, and I will then draw it out all bloody and stab myself." Rouard says that by drawing this bloody picture of death he hoped to frighten her and divert her from her purpose, but that she, far from being daunted by his words, flung herself into his arms in eestacy, exclaiming, " I could never have hoped for such an honour." At six in the evening of Jan. 9 Rouard accompanied Denise to the shoe where she worked, that of' Madame Vielle, artificial flower manufacturer, Rue St. Denis, and there she distri buted her working tools among the shop girls, kissed them all round, took a solemn leave of them, and, raising her hand in the way which French people do when they take an oath, said, " I swear before God, and by the ashes of my mother, that I am going to kill myself." The people in the shop, who had 'always looked upon Denise as rather flighty and eccentric, did net for a moment suppose that there was anything serious in this oath. On leaving the flower ship Rouard and Denise went to the Bal Robert, where they danced till 9 o'clock, and then went to the Cadran Bleu, but finding that establishmentelosed, they proceeded.to Michel's Restaurant, nearly opposite, and asked for a private room, pens, ink, and paper, and supper. On the threshold of the house Rouard said to Denise, " Let me die alone ; I will tear up the letter." She firmly persisted in the resolution to die with him, ran to a post-of f ice near, and threw the three letters into the box, and then said, " Now you can make no more objections ; the persons to whom we have written will know that I wished to die with you.. " On entering the private room in the restaurant the poinard was placed on the table, and Rouard said to Denise, " The truth must be known after us—l should not like to be thought an assassin." Thereupon Denise wrob, " I die struck by the hand of my lover; I have ordered him to do name. Rouard s in w y ro w t b e iell 7 ,u d s e e r underneath After wsiust wishes ep e se ri f ,t o : l l a o nl w d i d n iw g e hw w ei o nt r h d th s h — e er it because I wish t o di e w ith hi m ;" an d s h e s i gne d h er b " e a s u t s i e b m suchy mistress i minute•hand of the clock pointed to eight minutes to 11, which was the exact hour they had fixed upon for the com pletion of the drama, Rouard said, " The hour has come." Denise then laid down upon a sofa, undid the upper part of her dress, and bared her bosom. Rouard took the poniard, advanced towards her, and said, "It is yet time" —meaning to ask if she would change her mind. She replied, " Go on ; and, above all things, don't make me suffer." He then placed one knee between her legs, pushed up with his left hand her left breast, so as:to • leave clear the region in which he supposed the heart was beating, and :plunged the weapon into her body up to the hilt. She heaved one sigh, closed her eyes, and remained motionless. Rouard drew out the poniard, and, while warm and bloody, as he had said, inserted the point into his own bosom; he then placed the handle against the body of Denise, and, folding his arms around her. pressed her against it with all his strength. It is deposed by witnesses (for Denise did not die on the spot) that she subsequently affirmed, when in the hospital, that, "feeling her lover tremble, she pressed herself against the handle of the poniard as hard as she could, in order to help to drive it home. After this Rouard fainted and fell oft the sofa. When he came to himself, and sought to collect his ideas,. he felt an acute pain in his breast, and found the poniard sticking in it. Ire drew it out, laid it on the table, and then sat down on the sofa where Denise was lying,. It being now late, the waiter knocked at the door of the room, and Denise had strength enough to stretch out her hand from the sofa and draw the ,_bolt. Both Renard and Denise, severely wounded in the lungs, were removed to the Hos pital Saint Louis, where Denise lingered 20 days, and died on Jan. 23, Rouard has sufficiently recovered to take his alai, but he is still very weak, and speaks with difficulty. A case of the above kind invariably results in a trium phant acquittal before a French jury. A court martial, however, might be supposed to be made of " sterner stuff." In this case, however, the majority of the military tribunal showed itself susceptible of those feelings which, though admitted by no civilised code, generally give impunity to crimes of this nature in France. Rouard was acquitted by five votes against tio. His mother, who was in court, loudly thanked the judges, and there was a general shout of applause. THE FRENCH FISHERIES.—The Moniteur con tains a long report to the Emperor from M. Coste, of the Institute, "On the Organisation of Fisheries, as regards the increas3 of the naval force of France." Ile begins by stating That the production of oysters on the plan recom mended by him has taken such a prodigious development that in the Ile de Re alone more than 3,000 men, who have come from the interior, have already established 1,500 parka, which produce annually about 378,000,000 oysters, of the value of from 6,000,000 f. to 8,000,000 f. These men have also formed themselves into associations for the de fence of their common interests. Those associations and others like them which could be formed on different parts •ofoysters, establish parks for the production. of of the coast might, production instead of confining themselves soles, rays, turbot, lobsters, crabs, &c. .But the formation would necessitate the employment of vessels in which the of the parks would not only cost oonsiderable sums, but men could go out to sea to fish ; and that course again would necessitate further outlay. As th men have hot the funds to do all this, M. Coste suggests that advances shall be made to them by what are called the Maritime Caisses de Retraites, subject to the condition of their paying back 3 per cent. per month of the produce of their fishing, in addition to the 3 per cent. which they are already bound to pay to the said Caisses, in order to obtain relief in sick ezcid B;c., paid sick ness or old age. He ad ds, that such a payment would not b ti e m i e u m an ae y k w t a h y om bu p rd ro e p n r s i o e m th e rs to ol th th em e ;easnsedisNyv p ou arlkds b, for by means of the advances. As several millions are granted annually for tho encouragement of the Newfound laud fishery, M. Coste submits th a t t h ere i s nothing un reasonable in what he propo ses, and he affirms that, if his suggestion be acted on, a vas t i ncrease wou ld b e ma d e t o the maritime population, which augmentation would naturally strengthen the Imperial navy. He likewise observes that the fishing associations which he wishes to see established would not only p rov id e a l arge an d constant supply of fish for the inl an d t owns, an d t h ere by cre ate an im branch of trad e , b u t m i g ht lead to obtaining fish'b, insec s, and plants in great quantities for manure.
