Tea at public sale brought full rates, while coffee, sugar, and cocoa were in demand at slightly enhanced rates. Rice, fruit, and spices were without material change, and a limited business has been done in saltpetre and tallow, the transactions in the latter article for forward delivery having slightly in creased. At the public sale of colonial wool there was a good attendance of both home and foreign dealers, and prices ranged much the same as those realised at the close of the previous sales. Speculation in the market for Public Securities continues very quiet, but the quotations continue rm with a buoyant tendency, Consols being 93! 1- 5 ., for money with dividend, and 92} for account ex div. The extreme easiness of money exercises unfavourable influence upon the market, although it fails to stimulate business. The New Threes and the Reducedj have improved to 911 ; Exchequer Bills, March, to 7s. and 10s. prem.; Bank Stock is steady at 229 and 230 ; India ditto at 225 ; but the 5 per Cent. Loan has further advanced to 1061. Ihe dealings in the Foreign Stock Market have been of an average character, but prices, in some instances, have shown less firmness. Turkish 6 Per Cents. are 79i d ; ditto, 1858, 671 68 ; and ditto £lOO Bonds have declined to 684 691; Mexi can to 271 4 ; and Venezuelan to 221 ; Sardinian are firmer at 821; Spanish Deferred at 421 ; and Dutch 21 per Cents. at 64!. Business in the Railway Share Market continued rather inactive, and for several of the principal undertakings rather lower prices were established. Lancashire and Yorkshire, North-Western, Mid land and North-Eastern (York), declined 55.; and Caledonian and North-Eastern (Berwick), 10s.; Eastern Counties, however, advanced ss. ; and Brighton, and London, Chatham, and Dover, 10s.

Mr. CHAPMAN said there was no doubt about the question. He then proposed the following resolu tion:—" That bills cautioning hawkers, within the meaning of the Act, against selling newspapers in the streets without a licence be printed and circu lated forthwith, and that the members of this society give boys hawking newspapers in charge for having violated the said Act." Mr. BARRET seconded the resolution, which on bein g put was unanimously adopted. The proceedings closed with the customary vote of thanks to the chairman. 13k 20 100 2s ed 124 12 It all all all 100 44 100 97 99 98 100 87 89 88 90 101 103 9} 10 16i 17i 10} 10)f 74 76 20 20 10 10 15 15i 135 137 112 115 112 115 136 138 112 115 102 104 lii 1.14.0 9.18.9 n 10.6.7 li 5.9.0 AGED IVIARRIED PAUPERS.—At the weekly meet ng of the Greenwich board of guardians, held last evening, t was resolved, by a majority of 11 to 2, to erect a range of apartnien4e for the accommodation of married inmates of the we, khouse over 60 years of age, who have hitherto been aeparated, 150 155 127 130 73 75 01 92 94 96 I ipm i die par 100 100 100 100 8. 13.1 1.0. a.

Morgan—She told me she would destroy herself. Woman—And so I will ; I tried to do it last night. Morgan—She said she had cut all her hair off; that she would kill her little boy, and then destroy herself. The husband here stepped forward. Woman—Don't come within my reach. Hero her conduct became of the most violent description. She tried her utmost to reach her husband, and, but for the exertions of some of the officers of the court, she would most certainly have done him severe injury. Mr. Tyrwhitt ordered her to find two bails fcr three months, stating that the effect of that would be to keep her in prison, where she would be properly looked after.

An analysis also gives the number of workpeople in each town and the periods for which they are employed, and the gross result is as follows : WORKPEOPLE. Number working full time Ditto five days Ditto four days Ditto three days Ditto stopped li2 Total number of workpeople enumerated 172,257 These returns are imperfect, as there are several im portant districts lot enumerated, and it is feared that the last item of the number of workpeoplo totally out of employment, and for whom no re source is left but the poor-rates or charitable sub scriptions, is below the actual state of the case, and that the total will continually increase. With reference to the reiterated recommendations to millowners to work only three days a week, and to the speculations as to the effect such a course would have on the cost and supply of cotton, one corre spondent remarks that they show a very imperfect knowledge of the condition of the trade. There are, perhaps, 400 to 500 millowners in Lancashire, but the cost of working short time is comparatively so great that it is questioned if there are more than a hundred that could afford to resort to it beyond six months. In corroboration of this, the fact is cited that numerous masters are giving notice to their workpeople that their mills will be entirely closed as soon as their present stock of cotton is exhausted. That manufacturers are working to a great loss is clear from a comparison between the cost of the manufactured article and that of the raw material. For the first five months of 1860 the cost of 81b. 2 —4oz. shirtings was 10s the exact price at which they stand at present, while in the former period the cost of middling Orleans cotton was aid., which is now 12d. The cost of 32's twist and 34's weft also was 12d. and 11td. respectively, as against 142 d., and 14d. now, and when the extra relative expense of working short time is incurred the loss on the manufactured article is considerably in creased. In Preston, the masters having given notice of a reduction f7l per cent. in the wages paid to their spinners, the latter have determined on a strike, although support in this suicidal course can hardly be expected from fellow-workmen who are on the verge of severe want.

UTTERING Bisz COIN.—Two fashionably-dressed men, having the appearance of mechanics, who gave the names of Edward Dixon, aged 25, chain maker, and Edward Palmer, 20, umbrella maker, and both of 5, Queen's-road, Holloway, were brought before Mr. Selfe charged with uttering base coin. The prisoners visited Poplar yesterday, and succeeded in passing seven or eight counterfeit shillings. At last they were suspected, a base shilling offered by Palmer was given back to him, and he was seen to join the other prisoner immediately afterwards. Information was given to the police, and Moses Nichol], a police-constable, No. 97 K went in pursuit of the prisoners, and saw them occa sionally looking behind them, and in great fear, in the East India-road. When they saw Nicholl they mended their pace, and a very exciting chace ensued. The prisoners were run down and captured near Limehouse Church. Nicholl said " I charge you with passing base coin," to which they replied, "You are quite mistaken, we are respectable men, and live in Stratford." They afterwards gave their address at the same house, No. 6, Queen's-road, Holloway. No money of any description was found upon Palmer, who had passed a bad shilling to Miss Emma Horspool, the daughter of a baker, at No. 1148,. High-street, Poplar, and another to Susan Green, barmaid at an eating-house and beer-shop in Brunswick-street, Poplar. Ho purchased a penny roll at one place and a pennyworth of pudding at another, receiving 11d. change at each place in change. He also received change in silver and coppers for counterfeit money at other places. Dixon was also searched, and the officer took from his pockets ss. 4 3 / 4 d. in copper moneys, eight sixpences, four penny pieces, and four three penny pieces. /N icholls had no doubt the money found upon Dixon was the change received by Palmer. It was the custom for " smashers" when a base coin was tendered to have no other money in their possession. Palmer frequently declared that all the witnesses wero mistaken. He passed no counterfeit money. But when Miss Horspool, the baker's daughter identified him, he said "How could you take a bad shilling of me, you sounded and bounced the one 1 gave you on the counter several times." Mr. Selfe—Very good, you were in the shop. Both prisoners were remanded until Tuesday. THE WEATHER. PROBABLE BEFORE MONDAY. North Britain N.W. to N. and E., strong to gale; snow.

We regret to have to add to the already long catalogue of casualties on the north-east coast dur ing the late fearful gales which swept those shores, the total loss of the Yarborough, screw steamer, a fine ship nearly 600 tons burden, while on her passage from Grimsby to Cronstadt, and three of her crew, who were left in the rigging ; and the truly marvellous escape of the City of Norwich, steam ship, from sharing a similar fate, which, however, sustained the serious loss of upwards of 200 head of cattle. Yesterday a notice was posted at Lloyd's an nouncing the loss of an English vessel in the Chan nel near Furnes, on Sunday. The crew are all supposed to have been drowned. Four bodies have been found. One had a silver watch and chain con taining the following name :—" P. Alexander, jeweller, 21, George-street, Sunderland." Another had also a silver watch and chain, without any name. All had a medal with the following inscrip tions (on one side the bust of a king or admiral) : "England expects every man will do his duty," and on the reverse, " Shipwrecked Mariners' So ciety." One of the bodies had a certificate from "David Ditchburn, master of the Caspian, of Whitby, in favour of George P. Jackson, given at Amble, port of Shields, the 28th January, 1860." The following initials were on their stockings : " G. M.," " T. R.," "J. B.;" and one of them had a portmonnaie, with 13 pieces of foreign money. Another fatal catastrophe is reported to have happened in the mouth of the Bristol Channel. The ship Solides, which arrived at Queenstown with a cargo of sugar, from Demerara, left the former port for Bristol on Thursday. A Bristol pilot went down to meet, and spoke her below the Lundy Islands, about eight o'clock on Friday. Owing to the terrific sea that was running it was impossible for him to board her, bat ho directed the captain the course to take, and tha t he the pilot should follow, and board the ship when an opportunit y p rese nted itself. Owing t o the severit y of the stor m , heavy the pilot lost si g h t o f the daylight the following morning, wuahedtidl snow, that she h a d gone ashore .on and .on a shoal called Scarweather, off the a Mumbles, re and every soul belonging t o h er had perished. The wreck and cargo wa s s t rewed about the coast. Off Flamborough Head the brig Sunbeam, be longing to Shields, was run down by the American ship Borodino, and we regret to add that six of the crew of the former perished. The Sunbeam went down in deep water. The Borodino was bound north from the Thames. The Union, from Grimsby to Brest, reports from the Downs that she saw a schooner (apparently Welsh), and advised her to get the long boat ready for launching, and while the crew were in the act of shortening canvas, saw her go down with all on board. Farleigh bore north-west four miles. The Saba Public of Lyons says :—" All Saints Day has brought us winter this year, as a cold north wind has set in, and been the more severely felt through coming upon us so suddenly. It froze on Sunday throughout the valley of the Brevenue, at Sairi-Bal, and Arbresle, Snow also fell in abundance at St Etienne ; and on Monday morning Lyons was visited with a fall of sleet and snow. On Tuesday morning at seven, the thermometer was only one degree above freezing point, having been below it du" ing the night," LITERATURE. Sir Richard .Hanzilton. A novel. 2 vols. durst and Blackett. This is a romantic story that may serve to amuse many who like excitement and variety in their works of fiction. There is no particular merit in its style, and some parts of the descriptions are exaggerated. Still, despite these drawbacks, we find some smart representations of character and some likely sketches of society. The gentlemen who f. gure conspicuously in the tale are well drawn, better than the ladies, who are too tame or too ()lift& For instance, Miss Hartopp appearing at a ball in a country house in the dress of a jockey is far too overdrawn, and Marcia is hardly a natural girl, with her intense feelings and her morbid sus ceptibility that amounted to something quite in comprehensible to those around her. Sir Richard Hamilton is the most attractive and the most likely personage met with in the book. There is some thing manly and noble in his demeanour that is sure to propitiate all who corns in coatact with him, and which shows to peculiar advantage by the side of the inconsistent Mr. Gwynne, the briniant hero of the London world. It is true that Sir Richard made a great mistake in determining to propose to Marcia, but even in that case— " His failing leaned to virtue's side ;" for it was from motives of generosity that he was induced to offer her a home when she was about to be cast on the world. Maud D'Abernon is an un satisfactory maiden ; she improves at last in some respects, but she was too easily influenced by tnose around her, and it was by a concurrence of cir cumstances that she at last was rendered happy, not by the exercise of her own discretion or the effect of her own resolution. The latter events that are related in these pages are most melancholy as regards some of the characters. The giddy and vain career of Ada Delacourt is a very apt delinea tion of the sad descent which so many make, who, by listening to the tempter, fall never more to rise. One feels pity for the sorrow of the hapless husband who trusts so implicitly the • guilty one who deceives him. He had hardly a defined " idea" in his head, but he felt in his mind the worship for honour, and in this he was far above the unprincipled set who glittered in his house, looking down upon its master as a fool, be cause he had not their brilliant parts and their reckless indifference to all sober thoughts that might set a check on their lawless lives. "The only thing for which the little man valued himself was his temporary guardianship of a name transmitted to him by a long line of ancestors. In his person was represented the head of an honourable house, and in the imagination of the gentle civilian, his armed ancestors were ever calling upon him to give an account of his stewardship, and of the family honours committed bright and unsullied to his hands." With this prominent notion in his mind, this ruling spirit animating his otherwise dull being, it was a crushing blow to find that family honour lost, the brightness of its virtue passed away, and the glory of its spotless purity trodden under foot by the wife whom he so loved and trusted. The reader feels it a relief when Maud is freed from the shackles that bound her to Mr. Gwynne. This erratic man is described well in some respects, but the account of his speeches in the House of Commons is overstrained:; all such things should be left to the intelligence of the reader to divine, and they always fall flat or tame when the grand idea and the poetic illustration are put into actual words that are not good enough, and yet too grand for the occasion. " Milly," the old nurse, is a truthful, honest representation of a race fast dying out of attached servants, who follow through good report and evil report, in sorrow, sickness, poverty, and trouble the one family they have engaged to serve. There is something of feudal fidelity, mingled with friendship, in this resolute clinging to old associations. Consistency and fidelity can ennoble the lowest station, and impart a dignity to the humblest being who reflects credit on human nature. Lady Beauxyeux is a correct impersonation of a fashionable woman who was so absorbed in her foolish ideas of grandeur and gentility that she ignores all better and worthier sentiments. It is lamentable to think that this sketeh is the prototype of very many people who are wasting time, ruining the fortunes of many, and indulging the worst passions in order to gratify vanity and feed self-love. They indeed carry out the idea of the poet in those em phatic words— " And to the mercies of a moment leave The weighty cares of an eternal scene." The retrospect of such lives, when measured by the unerring test of a death-bed's reflection, must be, indeed, dreadful, and the veriest trifler would pause and tremble if a magic mirror held the closing scene before the gaze, when the world's pomps are over, the revels of fashion passed away, and all things become changed. It was well for Maud D'Abernon that she escaped when she did from such an atmosphere as that of Lady Beauxyeux's mansion. This story possesses the charm of relating many scenes in a lively manner of giving a spark ling picture of some events in fashionable circles, and of combining them with th e i n t eres t o f roman tic passages, and th e exc i temen t o f some startling transactions. It has the drawback of some exaggeration, in many places, as has before been stated, a fault which it would be well for the author to take heed and remedy, as it spoils the effect of some otherwise good descriptions. On the whole " Sir Richard Hamilton " will, doubtless, find admirers for its varied pages of the good and ill that befell its creations of fancy, and the light and easy style in which the nar rative is told will do much to make its perusal pleasant, and its'presence attractive. It is always a mistake to render a work of this class heavy or dry by the insertion of any elaborate accounts and descriptions, or the recapitulation of long sentences and prolonged discourses. This novel is quite adapted for the lovers of fiction, "eon (more," who take up a book to be amused, ex cited, interested, and employed after a fashion but not to be too deeply engaged, and not to be overwhelmed with abstract ideas and recondite reflections. In such this novel is quite the thing, and they can sit down to follow Sir Richard Hamilton through his trials, and Maud her mis takes with a pleasurable excitement and a genial interest. They will not find themselves out of their depths with too much wisdom in the rela tion, but their attention will be kept . up, and their time agreeably wiled away by its scenes its vivacious anecdotes, its• pourtrayed sketches and vivacious style.
