XONEY MARKET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE, CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. The general discount market remains without the slightest alteration, the rates continuing firm, with an active business. A further sum of £76,000, in gold, was taken into the Bank on Saturday. The accounts from the manufacturing districts last week were in some instances satisfactory. The dealings in both clothe; atd yarns at Manchester, however, were restricted by the high rates demanded by spinners and manufacturers. The woollen trade of Leeds, Bradford, and Huddersfield remained mo derately active, owing to the inquiry for winter goods. At Leicester and Nottingham there has been no material change, while business in the hardware districts of Birmingham, Sheffield, and Wolverhampton has been generally rather quiet. Two O'CLOCK. The report presented to-day to the meeting of the Ottoman rail R ay from Smyrna to:Aiden announces the satisfactory termination of the new financial arrangements entered into with the Imperial Otto man Government, under which, as already stated to the shareholders, the guarantee of 6 per cent. is extended to the increased capital necessary for the completion of the undertaking, !tow amounting in all to £1,784,000. The traffic to the 30th June showed an improvement on the previous half-year, whilst for the nine weeks to the 6th instant £3,851 had been taken, against £2,386 for the like num ber of weeks to the Bth March last, being an in crease of upwards of 60 per cent. This, however, by no means indicates the results which the direc tors are as sanguine as ever will follow from the establishment of the through traffic with the Aiden Valley ; to effect which they will continue their best efforts in the interests of the shareholders. At Paris this day, according to Mr. Reuter's tele. gram, the 3 per Cent. Relates were at 67f. 60c.— Better and animated. Bu.,ineas in the English Stock Market continues Very inactive, and there is not the slightest feature of novelty to comment upon, either as regards the extent of speculation or the current of dealing for transfer. The quotations remain steady, Consols being 931 7, 1 - for money, and 93.1 1 for the account.

The operations in the Railway Share Market have been very limited, and with one or to excep tions there is little variation to record in values. South Wes Tern have improved about 10s. ; and South Eastern, 55.; North Eastern (Leeds), how ever, have declined ss. The Foreign and Colonial undertakings remain inactive at about previous rates. Bank and Miscellaneous Shares continue in fair request, and generally sustain former quotations. BRITISH FUNDS—ONE O'CLOCK. Bank Stock 3 per Cent. Reduced Annuities 3 per Cent.

Most of the country markets held on Saturday were fairly supplied with wheat, for which description of produce the demand ruled steady, and prices were well supported. Most descriptions of spring corn were a dull inquiry, but flour commanded extreme rates. Throughout the continent wheat has sold slowly at barely stationary prices. The American markets have presented no new feature. The arrivals of English grain up to our market last week were moderate. From abroad we received 22,066 quarters of wheat, 8,574 barley, 22,638 oats, 1,701 beans, 98 peas, 14,831 linseed, 8,966 rapeseed, 340 sundry, 900 sacks and 26,647 barrels of fimr. Fre:h up to our market, this morning, the arrivals of English wheat were less extensive. The demand, however, for all qualities was by no means active, yet last Monday's currency was well supported. At the close of business, a fair clearance had been effected. There was a full average supply of foreign wheat on the stands. The amount of business transacted was but mo derate, at the rates current last week. Floating cargoes of grain moved cff slowly at late rates. The market was well supplied with English barley, and the trade ruled heavy, at a decline in prices from Monday last of is per quarter. Malt sold heavily, and the quotations had a downward tendency. The supply of oats was tolerably large. Scarcely any change took place in the value either of English or foreign parcels, but the trade was very inactive. A fair average supply of beans was on the stands, and the demand for them ruled inactive, at late rates. Peas fairly supported last week's currency. Sales, how• ever, progressed slowly, both in English and foreign qualities. Flour of all descriptions met a slow sale, but without leading to any material change in prices. The supply of barrels was somewhat extensive. CURRENCY PER IMPERIAL MEASURE.

BOW-STREET. WHICH IS THE PRINCESS or WALES.-A woman of about fifty years of age, and of by no means prepossessing appearance, applied to the magistrate for advice. "Your worship," said the applicant, "I am the Princess of Wales. You see it all in the papers about the Princess Alexandra, and this man (pointing to the usher) he does not understand it, and knows nothing about it, but I have come to them as understands and knows that I was married to the Prince of Wales and lived with him two nights, and !then he :left me, and now he is mar ried to the Princess Alexandra, while they made a subscrip tion for me on the Stock Exchange, and I know they have got the money. I wrote for it, and hex() I have got the answer. They say they would give me any pecuniary aid, and here are the initials "M.C.8." Now, sir, I have come to ask you what "M.C.8." means, and whether I canrot make them give up themoney. The magistrate told her her that he could not give her any advice, having nothing to do with the matters referred to. The applicant said she had been to other police-courts, and had been referred to Bond-street- She proceeded with a number of irrelevant statements, the bearing of which it was impossible to make out, except that she complained of incivility on the part of an official in a red robe at the Mansion-house, who she said evidently did not believe that she was the real Princess of Wales. The magistrate listened patiently for some time, but see ing that she was not disposed to make an end of her appli cation, his worship ultimately suggested to the usher to ,6 get the poor creature away." Ultimately she left, saying she should go to another coaxt. REV. FREDERIC WILLIAM FABER. D.D. Father Superior of the Oratory at Brompton. Our impression of Saturday briefly announced the death of the Rev. Frederic William Faber, D.D., Superior of the Oratory at Brompton, the most dis tinguished of the Anglican converts to the Catholic faith after Dr. Newman. Dr. Faber had been ill since May last, his disease being the terribly serious malady known as Bright's Disease, and for a long time his life has been despaired of. He died at five minutes past seven on Saturday morning, after receiving the last sacraments. Whatever may be the general opinion as to the conduct of the Oratorians in their self-imposed work of proselytism, no cne can deny that Dr. Faber was one of the most ear nest, most gentle, and most loving of mankind He was universally popular, and his death has caused a more widely spread feeling of grief in Catholic circles than any other death in that religious body could cause, Yesterday, after high mass, the Rev. J. E. Bowden, one of the Fathers of the Oratory, made a short address to the large con gregation there assembled. The rev, gentle man,whose voice was at times broken byemotion , spoke in the most eloquent and touching manner of the late superior. "He might not need their prayers," said the preacher but still they gave them. The golden words which lee had spoken from that pulpit made their hearts burn within them. Had they profited by his teach ing ? Let them pray to his patrons, St. Wilfrid, St. Philip, and St. Raphael. A few spasmodic breath ings were the indications of his death. As he (the preacher) knelt by his bedside he seemed to see the realisation of the picture drawn by Dr. Faber of the true Christian at the end of the 2d chapter of his work, " All for Jesus," the passage beginning " Only serve Jesus out of love," &c. Frederic William Faber was born in 1814, and was the son of the solicitor of the Bishop of Dur ham, whe was appointed judge or assessor of the Bishop's Court for the Palatinate, and died more than 20 years ago. His brothers are Col. Faber, who is serving with his regiment in India; the Rev. Francis Faber, 8.D., late fellow of Magdalen College, Oxford, rector of Saunderton, near Prince's Risborough ; and Mr. Henry Faber, a barrister, at Stockton-on-Tees. His uncle was the celebrated George Stanley Faber,B.D., the author of the works on Prophecy. Frederic Faber was educated at Har ro w School, and was sent thence to University Col lege, Oxford, where he obtained a:sholarship. 1111836 he obtained the Newdigate prize for his English poem, " The Knights of St. John ;" in the same year he took a second class in Literis liumaniori bus ; and in 1837 was elected to one of Dr. John son's theological scholarships. He was ordained deacon by the Bishop of Ripon and priest by the Bishop of Oxford. Ho retained his fellowship at University College till 1843, when he took the col lege living of Elton, Huntingdonshire, worth about £450 a year. Mr. Faber had early in his university career adopted High Church opinions. In 1838 he pub lished a work called " The Ancient Things of the Church of England." When travelling in 1842, he had many conversations with Italian priests and strangers about the rites, ceremonies, and doctrines of their Church, and in put:dishing an account of " Sights and Thoughts in Foreign Churches," de dicated to the poet Wordsworth, he took for a motto the well-known refrain of the Shepherd's song in the Campagna " Roma I Roma! Roma! Roma! non d pin come era prima." In his tracts on the Church and the Prayer-book , (1840), Mr. Faber considered the Church to be a safeguard against selfishness and worldly times ; and did Freemasonry the honour of saying that " when it was anything more than a club, it was profane and against the Gospel"--a statement the veracity of which was only to be equalled by its sagacity. In 1838, Mr. Faber published a tract on the duty of keeping to the principles of the Re formation, and spoke of the " Roman Catholics" as " Roman dissenters." In the same year he wrote a tract on the "Burial Service: Its doctrines and its Consolation." Yet when he was on his foreign tra vels, his views must have been of an extremely Ro manised character, for we find him speaking of Luther and Petrarch in the following terms; — "Here the apostate monk Came, ere his fall, and when he saw how nigh Good lay to Evil, their baser spirits shrank As from a touchstone," It was probably about this period that Mr. Faber wrote the enthusiastically religious verses which were quaintly described as "Lives of the Sainte potted down into Sonnets." Mr. Faber remained at Elton for rather more than two years, during which time he restored his church, got up a choir, and obtained a character for ultra-High Churchism. His account of his seces sion is interesting. He said that he had long been in doubt as to the orthodoxy of Anglicanism, and his excuse for officiating then in an Anglican church was that he had "only delivered old sermons written and preached in 1837 and 18381 He had visited less sedulously' in his parish, and he had stated his doubts to persons who came to confess to him. He had preached at Elton the doctrines vulgarly called Roman, no doubt, but he was not aware of it." The end of all this was not far distant. Mr. Newman, Mr. Dalguirn, Mr. Capes, Mr. A. Christie, Mr. Cottin, Mr. Morris, and other well known Anglicans, had been received into the Catho lic Church in 1845. On Sunday, November 16, Mr. Faber preached a short sermon from Ruth, and in timated that it would be the last time he should appear in the pulpit of Elton Church. On the fol lowing day he was received into the Catholic Church by Dr. Wareing, vicar apostolic of the northern dis. trict, at St. Felix Chapel, Northampton. Mr. Faber was accompanied in his secession by Mr. T. F. Knox, 8.A., member of a noble Irish family, who had, a year or two before, taken a distinguished degree at Cambridge, and would in all proba bility have obtained a fellowship at Trinity. Be sides Mr. Knox, who was Mr. Faber's guest, the rector of Elton took over to Rome a dozen of his parishioners. Having been received into the Roman Catholic Church, Mr. Faber was for some time a resi dent of St. Wilfrid's, Staffordshire, where he founded a confraternity. In 1849 he came to Lon don, and established the brotherhood of St. Philip Neri in King William -street. Strand. He brought with him six priests. In 1854 the Oratory was re moved to the splendid buildings adjoining Holy Trinity Church, Brompton, where there are now no fewer than 20 priests, besides lay members, novices, &c. Here forlo years D r. Faber has worked with great success, as far as regards proselytism, and the spa cious chapel of the Oratory is filled with a con tinually increasing number of worshippers. The baptism of the captain of Westminster School, fre quently dealt with of late in the public columns of the newspapers, need only here be alluded to. Dr. Faber is well known as a writer, but it may not generally be remembered that 25 years ago he was considered one of the most graceful and charm ing of young poets. The " Cherwell Water Lily" and other poems was a most popular book in the early days of Oxford High Churchism. The author's friendship with the poet Wordsworth may Account for his enthusiastic affection for the moun tain and lake scenery of Cumberland and Westmore land. His intense love for Oxford, his description of Oxford in spring, and of St. Mary's by night, may take high rank among the poetical triumphs of the 19th century. One or two of the poems are ao:dressed to Lord John Manners, his fellow travellar and most intimate friend, to whose " soul's hereditary gentleness,'' as well as to the " blaze and the poet b ears a warm splendour .of his boyhood," testimony. His " ltosary" aid other poems he de dicated to Mr. Beresford-hope, " out of a humble mind, with cheerful augury, redeemed from sacrilege the Abbey of St. Au gu sti ne , an d h e ld it but in trust for the churea of better times." His poems on Scio, Candia, Parnassus, Therapia, Snow den, Hevellyn, Rothsay, and others, show a great rower of descripti on an d muc h poet i ca l f ee ling. His works of late years, since his secession, have deep ened the poetical element in his nature till it has approached fiction. Few writings of modern times are comparable to Dr. Faber's; there is in them such a wonderful combination of piety, credu lity, earnestness, and eloquence. Amongst Fattier Fanef; ooer works are po. I pular " All'for Jesus," which has had an i mmense sale in England, and of which 40,000 copies have been sold in America alone; "The Saints and Servants of God," " The Spirit and Genius of St. Philip Neri," " Si r L ancelot, " " S p i r i tua l Confe rences," " Growth in Holiness," "Jesus and Mary,' " Tales of the Angels," "Discourse on the Sacra ments," and many others. Several of his works have been translated into French, German, Dutch, and other European languages. Of all the converts to Catholicism from the An glican faith, the Morning Post of to-day ob serves that none have been more zealous, more successful, more earnest, than Dr. Faber. His ac complishments, his administrative tact, his brilliant conversational powers, his unfailing good temper and geniality, having brought round him a band of devoted and attached friends, who attended him day and night during his painful illness, and who now bitterly lament his death. METROPOLITAN CATTLE. The supply of foreign stock on offer in to-day's market was again extensive. Most of the Dutch sheep and calves appeared in good, in some instances prime, condition; but the quality of the beasts was inferior. From our own grazing districts, the arrivals of beasts were extensive as to number, but somewhat deficient in quality. Very few Scotch beasts were on offer; but there was a fair sprinkling from Ireland. All breeds met a heavy inquiry at a decline in the quotations compared with Monday last of 2d per 81bs, and a clearance was not effected. The top figure for the best Scots, &c., was 4s 10d per 81bs. This, however, was obtained in very few instances. The receipts from Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northamptonshire, comprised 2,950 short-horns and crosses; from other parts of England, 600 various breeds; from Scotland, 10 Scots; and, from Ireland, 600 oxen and heifers. The show of sheep was seasonably good, and, for the most part, in prime condition. Nearly all breeds m ove d off slowly, at 2d per 81bs less money. The best old Downs changed hands at 5s 2d per 81bs. We have to report a dull sale for calves— the supply of whioh was good—at 4d per 81bs less monoy than on this day se'nnight. There was a fair averagc business doing in pigs, at very full prices.

A SAD CASE.—A GIRL CHARGED 'WITH ROBBING HER FATHER.—Mary Anne Sawyer, a girl, was charged with robbing her father. Henry Sawyer, the father, a respectable looking man, living in Warren-street, Fitzroy-square, deposed that the prisoner was his daughter, and that on the Bth of July she stole a pair of boots belonging to a younger sister and then absconded, nothing more being seen of her till Saturday night last, in answer to Mr. Knox, the father said he could do no thing with the girl, for although only fourteen years of age she had ten times run away from home. Mr. Knox asked the girl, who hung down her head, and either cried or pretended to cry during the hearing of the case, whether she wished to say anything. Without rais " I wish my f at h er would forgive ing her head she said, me." A gentleman stepped forward and said the girl had lived as servant with a medical friend of his, but while there several articles had been missed, and a poor servant girl robbed of 255. Goddard, 302 A, said on taking the girl into custody on Saturday night, and asking her what she had done with the boots, she made no answer. Mr. Knox said it was a sad case, and that he had no doubt she had been associating with young prostitutes and bad characters of her own age. He would remand her for a week. WESTMINSTER. DaiviNG HIGHWAY ROBBERY WITH VIOLENCE.— John Ryan, a low-looking fellow of about 18 years of age, was charged with assaulting Charles Gilbert, an Irishman, and stealing from him 3s. Prosecutor said—l was going along College-street, on Sunday morning, at half-past 1, when prisoner and two more men came up to me and asked me for a light. I re plied that I had none, and turned away, but had not gone above 10 paces before the prisoner came up, seized me by the back of the neck, and threw me down. The others then commenced kicking, striking, and pulling me about. Prisoner kicked me in the head and rifled my pockets, taking 3s. and a screw of tobacco, all I possessed. My coat was torn all to pieces and I was rendered almost insensible, A gentleman came to my assistance, with a constable, and prisoner was given into custody. Thomas M'Donald sworn—l was in College-street on Saturday night, and witnessed the assault. Prosecutor was very shamefully kicked and beaten about, and I went to his assistance. I caught hold of prisoner's accomplice, but the prisoner on the arrival of the constable escaped. Joseph William Todd said—l saw the struggle and went to the assistance of prosecutor with a constable. Prisoner ran away on our approach, and we pursued him. He threw himself down in a doorway, but was overtaken by the constable, and I pursued the other man, but failed to catch him. Police-constabl e 307 B, confirmed the above statement, but added that the prisoner kicked and fought very much, and with the assistance of a police sergeant he was taken to the station. Sergeant Young, 1 B, corroborated the constable's evi dence, and added, that prisoner struck and kicked him. Prosecutor was knocked about very much. His head bled profusely and his eye was closed. Mr. Arnold thought it very strange that the prosecutor should have said he held the prisoner, whereas he escaped. The sergeant said that might be accounted for by the state of insensibility i n was remanded till P r i s oner said he w as d run k , an d which the prosecutor was. Thursday next. THAMES. THE ENRAGF,D MUSICIAN.—Edward Jeffs, or Jepp, a tall young man, was brought before Mr. Partridge charged with being drunk and disorderly, assaulting Thomas Munt, his landlord, and destroying furniture. Mr. Munt, of No. 12, Jubilee place, Jubilee-street, Stepney, said the prisoner occupied two rooms in his house. On Saturday evening the prisoner, who was intoxicated, came into the kitchen of the house and wanted to remain there. He told the prisoner that he could not do so as he expected some friends. The prisoner made a great disturb ance, abused him, and made use of the most dreadful language. He led the prisoner to his own room and was about to leave it when prisoner took up a violin and struck him on the none with it. The prisoner then took up the violin and smashed that also. The door was the next ob ject of attack, and that was broken up. The prisoner then dt , ,molished the partition of his room, and destroyed the chairs and other furniture. lie called a police-constable and gave the prisoner into custody. Mr. Partridge—He plays on the violin ? witness—Yes; he was playing with it on Saturday evening, and then broke it. Mr. Partridge—He appears to have acted the part of the enraged musician. The prisoner, in defence, said he was a berber as well as a musician, and he had so much business to attend to on Saturday, and so many noses to pull, that he became quite unnerved, and thought he could put his nerves in order and carry on his business if he drank some liquor. The liqucr had an effect contrary to what he intended, and made his nerves worss. He played a tune on his violin, but that did not soothe him, and he did not know what he did after wards. Mr. Partridge said the prisoner was a very foolish man, and ordered him to enter into his own recognizances to keep the peace to all her Majesty's subjects, and especially towards Mr. /Aunt, for six months. SFRIOUS INJURY TO A CONSTABLE TItROUGH AN EXPLOSION OF GAS.—About five o'clock this morn ing an explosion of gas, attended with serious consequences to a constable named Thomas Evans, 113 C, took place at the Marlborough-mews Police-station. It appears that at the time above stated, Evans, who had a lamp in his hand opened the library door for the purpose of seeing the time that he might call some of the constables, when hR was blown with great force against the wall, and the gas with which the room was fully charged ignited. Assistance was promptly at hand and the flames extinguished, but not before great damage was done to the room and its contents. Evans, who was badly burnt about the head and hands, was at once removed to the Middlesex Hospital, where he now remains, the extent of his injuries not yet being ascer- tained. The quotation of gold at Paris is about per mine pm., and the short exchange on London is 25.27 i per Ll sterling. On comparing these rates with the English Mint price of 17s. 100. per ounce for standard gold, it appear that gold is aD9l.lt 0-10ths rer cent, deazer in London than m Paris. ' THE VOLUNTEERS. On Saturday a field day, sham fight, and bivouac took place at Hadley, near Barnet, under the com mand of Lieut.-Col. Wilkinson, commandant of the 2d Administrative Battalion of Middlesex Volun teers, and was one of the most interesting as well as, generally speaking, best conducted field days, although upon a small scale, of the season. The ground selected for the evolutions was a piece of land situated near Hadley Common, of triangular form, measuring from east to west a distance of about 1,350 yards, and at the base about 450 yards. Two-fifths of the ground beyond this westward was a plateau of green sward, trending eastwards into a shallow ravine, abutting upon a wood. Brushwood and forest trees, skirted on the south by a bridle path ,and intersected by glades,covered the remainder eastward to the level crossing of the Great Northern Railway, at the apex of the triangle near Barnet station. The corps engaged were the Post Office and Whitehall companies of the Civil Service, under command of Captain Du Plat Thylor ; the 33d Mid dlesex (Tottenham), under command of Captain Hill; the 41st Middlesex, under command of Cap. tain Sendy ; the Enfield Lock Rifles, forming part of the 2d Administrative Battalion of Middlesex ; the 12th Middlesex (Barnet) Rifles, under command _ _ of Lieutenant Hendery, in the absence of Captain Hanbury ; the Cadet Corps attached to the 12th Middlesex, and the Hatfield and Hadley Trocp of the Herts Yeomanry Cavalry. The force was under the command of Lieut.-Colonel Wilkinson, aided by Major Wilbraham Taylor, of the 2d Administrative Battalion, who acted as brigade major; and Captain Baylis,of the 36th Middlesex (Paddington), and Ser geant F. E. Baines (by whom the whole arrange ments had been organised), of the 12th Middlesex, acted as aides-de-camp. On the plateau before referred to, just at the brow of the ravine, an ad vanced lunette had been constructed, in the centre of which was a flagstaf f with its flag flying, whilst the various tents and arrangements for the bivouac gave to the scene an appearance of reality such as has scarcely ever before been witnessed on the occaeion of volunteer evolutions in the field. It was arranged that the attacking force, consisting of the Civil Service end 33d Middlesex, which had been entrusted to the command of Captain Du Plat Taylor, should commence operations as soon as they got into order outside the Barnet station, which they did by marching from the station along the bridle path on the western side of the Great Northern Railway. The defending force which was under the direct command of Col. Wilkinson, consist ing of the 41st and the 12th Middlesex and the cadets with the Enfield rifles, occupied the plateau in rear of the lunette, and as soon as the announcement was made by the cavalry, who had been sent out to reconnoitre, that the enemy had arrived and were marching on their position, skirmishers were sent forward into the wood in front to intercept and check their advance. On reaching the wood on the eastern side the attacking force was divided, the 33d making their way by the bridle path on the left. The main body, or Post Office division of the Civil Service, took the central or principal glade, whilst the Whitehall division of the same regiment formed the right flanking party of the enemy. Scarcely had the attacking force entered the wood when the cracking of the rifles told that they had come upon the pickets and skirmishers of the defenders, and the fight appeared to approxi mate closer and closer to the plateau, and to wax warmer and warmer every succeeding minute. A few minutes more sufficed to bring the retreating skirmishers of the defending force and their antagonists into sight at the foot of the ravine skirting the wood at the foot of the plateau. The enemy were gathering force and concentrating their companies rapidly, and as speedily succeeded in clearing the woods and in driving the defenders' skirmishers out and up the ravine into the open. The defenders' cavalry were instantly ordered down to charge the advancing foe and cover the defend ing skirmishers' retreat_ The skirmishers of the attacking force formed rallying squares to receive the cavalry and succeeded in causing them to de camp to the rear of the lunette. By this time the main body of the attack made its appearance through the various glades, and commenced opening a galling file fire upon the position of the defenders, who also, from behind the lunette, to which their skirmishers had retired, opened an Equally brisk fire along the whole line upon the advancing foe. The enemy formed and ad vanced in line to storm the lunette, whilst the whole of the defending force of infantry moved down in its support. The effect of this movement and the deadly volleys they poured in upon the assailants was understood for the moment to check the advance and to drive them back some 50 or 60 yards to re form and recruit their strength, owing to the loss of men they were supposed to have sustained. Having re-formed, the enemy advanced up the bill against the lunette in direct echelon of wings, but were again met by a charge of cavalry, and were com pelled to form close column of sections to repel cavalry. At this moment the flanking column which had taken the glade diverging to the right was now seen debouching from the wood, and a part of the defending force being detached, with the cavalry to check its advance, the main body of the enemy, profiting by the confusion, under the cover of a tremendous vol ley, rushed forward and succeeded in capturing the lunette, and amidst the cheers of the attacking force the defenders' flag was lowered and that of the attacking body substituted. The defending force then returned to the plateau and formed line in front of the tents facing south, whilst the attack having also reached the plateau, faced in the op posite direction, and after a series of volleys from both by companies' wings, and finally by each battalion, the grand charge was made by the attack. After forming together in line into close column, and marching by subdivisions round the c e ntre, terming battalion squares to receive cavalry, and per forming other evolutions, tha whole force marched past first in open and th e n i n cl ose co l u mn to the music of the band of the Civil Service Rifles. They then formed in line, and advanced in slow time, and in review order, the whole of the movements being performed in a very soldierlike and efficient manner. Three sides of a square having been formed, Lieut.-Col. Wilkinson addressed the officers and men assembled, and expressed the high satisfaction he had experienced in witnessing the admirable manner in which the evolutions had been performed, and his thanks to the Civil Service and other corps who had come to aid them in that which b e h oped had proved a useful and instructi ve volunteer field-day. On the part of the Barnet division of h e bid t h em how his battalion Welcome to the hospitality they had provided. Men having been told off to take charge of the various tents where refreshments were provided, and others to light the fires for the bivouac, this part of the day's pro ceedings closed with three cheers for Col. Wilkin son, three for the Civil Service and other corps which had attended, and for which Captain Taylor returned thanks. The men were marched in de tachments to partake of the more substantial portion of the entertainment. By this time the moon had made its appearance high above the trees of the wood, and the b;uze of the camp fires, with the crowds of volunteers around them, and the bands playing merrry tunes, rendered the scene altogether one of the most pleasing and interesting charact er which can pouibly be i=gined, SECOND EDITION. SUN OFFICE, HALF-PAST 4 o'CLocK. SPAIN. The Spanish journals state that accounto have been received from Melilla to the 17th instant. Everything was then calm in the camp of the Moors, who seem to repent of the atti tude which they had assumed. The iVerta steamer, from Malaga, landed a battalion of infantry. The Spanish expedition destined to chastise the Moors of the Riff will, it i s said, be from 8,000 to 10,000 strong. Ge.aeral Alsldonaldo has had a conference with the Governor of the Riff, who is encamped before Melilla, and the result of the interview wilt be immediately sent to the Government.

SPORTING NOTES. Although the racing season is now rapidly drawing to a close, still there are several important events to be decided, viz., the Cesarewitch, Cambridgeshire, Liverpool Autumn Cup, and several other minor handicaps. The first of the three Newmarket October meetings commences to-morrow. There are 12 raves in the list for the first day, the most important being the Great Eastern Railway Handicap, which has the enormous entry of 94. As it is almost impossible to select the winner from such a large number as will face the starter, I will content myself in directing attention to those which are most leniently treated by the handicapper. From the top weights I would select Queen of Trumps, Gcmma, Fravola, and Biondella, Soapstone and Turcos from the middle weights, and Poland and Bohemia from the light weights ; and, if compelled to stand on three, they would be BIONDELLA, POLAND and QUEEN OF TRUMPS. The Triennial will be an easy victory for Hurricane, which will make her first favourite for the Cesarewitch. The mare never was better, and those who back her at her present price (100 to 6) will have no cause to regret their investments. The Buckenham Stakes will result in a match between the representatives of Lord Portsmouth and Mr. Merry, but I think the former, with Becky Sharpe, will be victo rious. The Grand Duke Michael Stakes, in the absence of Kemptown, will be a match between Fantail and Escape e The Hopeful Stakes, I expect, will be secured by either Crytheia or Guardsman. For the Croombe Stakes, Cam buscan is not likely to face the starter, or I should stand on him alone, and in his absence I must look to Durham to furnish the winner. The Tippler and Little Savage ought to win their matches. The Two-year old Biennial will fall to Baron Rothschild's representative, with either Tomata or Evelina ; the Rutland Stakes to Claremont, even with his 41b. penalty; the Two.year-old Sweepstakes to Midnight Mass; and the two-year-old race over the T.Y.C. to Fille de I'Air. The Lothians Meeting commences on Wednesday, and extends over Thursday. The handicaps are all well filled and two days' excellent sport is expected. There are nine teen acceptances for the Lothians Handicap, Mr. Merry having three—viz The Knave, Costa, and Lioness ; and whichever he sends ought to be returned the winner —the most likely one being Costa, as Lioness will be reserved for the Cesarewitch, for which she is about as good a favourite for money as anything.

GEORGE BUCKLAND, the well-known buf f o s inger, takes his benefit at the R o y a l C o l osse um to-morrow, full particulars of which will be found in another column.

THE REMAINS OF KING Tomes PALACE at Old Ford, Bow, converted into a iucifer-match manufactory re cently, were destroyed by fire on Wednesday morning. HAIRBREADTH EsCAPES DURING THE EARTH QUAICE AT MANILLA. --I heard of the most extraor dinary instances of escape. The tower of one of the churches fell in a mass across the open space in front of the chug ch. who had just t urne d to take his chil dn in moment; his the arrn s, A Spaniard, his wi fe, and two chil dren were passing at the man, waa crushed, t oget h er with his little chil dren,re while his wife, who wan not a yard distant from him, escaped unhurt, as did also, with the exception of a few bruises, five persons who were standing within the basement of the tower when it fell. A woman had been ordered to fetch some water from a spring, but had ne glected to do it, which made her master so angry, that on her refusing to go, he took her by the arm and put her out of the house. She had only got as far as the open space h , which surrout ded the nearest church, when the earthquake took place, which shook down the house from which she had just been expelled, and killed all who were in it. One Pietro Mastal, the driver of a public vehicle, had just left a wine shop at the corner of a little street facing the church of Vera Cruz, with a friend of his, a muleteer, when the latter saw something glittering at his feet. lle picked it up, and it was a small silver coin. Both turned back to spend tho money in wine. At the door the muleteer turned round and jestingly told Pietro that he should not share it, and with the rough playfulness of that class he gave Pietro a push which sent him staggering some distance. Before he had time to recover himself and follow his friend, the earthquake came, the wineshoP crumbled to pieces, and buried all within its walls, leaving him standing at the threshold uninjured— All the Year lound, ieti ibbed same Latioa )d by e eye.
