CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. The rates for accommodation in the discount Market remain very firm, and little business is ne gotiated out of doors below the official rate, namely, billcent. U n d er suc h c i rcumstances, w hil e the . 01 1 l brok ers an d j o i nt•stock companies appear t o have a fair employment for the capital at their com mand, the greater bulk of the paper brought into the market is taken to the authorities at the Bank of England, where, in consequence, the amount of other securities no doubt have been very considerably augmented. The demand is in a great measure stimulated by the increased industry lately apparent in the manufacturing districts, where orders from all parts of the globe have poured in, and agents have found some difficulty in fully executing their lar ge commissions. The Delta has arrived from Alexandria with £ 1 ,147. During the last few days there has been very little activity in the Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets. Tea has remained at full rates, while fugar, coffee, and rice have exhibited no material chang e in value. There has been a better inquiry for tallow, chicfly for home consumpti on , an d prices improved for bath p resent and for have slightly Ward delivery. The Republic of Colombia (South America) is seeking, through its fiscal agents in this country, to raise a loan amounting to £200,000. The price of issue is £B6 per bonds of 1100, bearing an annual interest of 6 per cent., commencing from the let proximo. The payments can be made by instal ments, extending to April next, and the bonds are to be redeemable at par in 10 years hence by the operation of a sinking fund. The purposes to which the money is to be applied are the con struction of roads, the improvement of the naviga tion of the river Magdalena, and the development and promotion generally of the commercial resources of the country. For the due payment of the inte rest and the redemption of the principal, the Go vernment specially mortgages 15 per cent. of the gross revenues of the salt mines, and hypothecates in favour of the subscribers as an additional seen rity, the right ii possesses to redeem within twelve Years the concession of the Panama Railway. Two o'CLocK. At Paris this day, according to Mr. Reuter's tele gram, the 3 per Cent. Rentes were at 67t. 97c. to 68 f. Oc. Very flat. The market for English Securities continues dull and inanimate, and with the very little business n ow daily transacted, Console remain at one price without even a fractional alteration. The quota- lions are therefore 932 2 for money, and 931 2 for the account. The New Threes have improved to 92 1 I. but the Reduced Annuities are a little lower at 912 92i. The Red Sea Telegraph Annuities are 21 1.16, and Exchequer Bills par to 3s. prem.; In dian Stock is 224; the 5 per Cent. Loan, 1082 ; the Enfaced do., 1071; and the 4 per Cent. Deben tures, 1002.

THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER, 22, 1863, CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT,--This Day. OLD COURT. (Before the Recorder.) Walter Manning, who pleaded guilty to an indictment charging him with stealing 31 lbs. of tobacco, the property of his employer, was called up for judgment. The prisoner received a good character. The Recorder sentenced him to 4 months' imprisonment, with hard labour. CHARGE OF ENTICING CHILDREN AWAY. Bridget Murty, 45, a married woman, was indicted under the 52nd section of the recent statute of offences to the per son, making it a felony to take or lead away any child or children, for the purpose of stealing their apparel. From the evidence it appeared that the prisoner was seen by a young woman to enter into conversation with four young children in Lincoln's-inn-fields, and afterwards they went away with her. She afterwards was stopped by the witness, and on being charged with taking the children away for the purpose of stealing their clothes, she stoutly denied it. The woman was ultimately taken into custody, and committed for trial under the above statute. Mr. Ribton contended that the evidence totally failed to prove that there had been any infringement of the provi sions of the act of Parliament. After some discussion, the jury returned a verdict of not guilty. John Watson, clerk and buyer. of Messrs. Daley and largebea behalf of o f quantity his employers, o f velvet Co., Grand Parade, Cork, pleaded guilty to an indictment table-clothscharginghim and other with obtaining articles, a on with intent to defraud. Sentence deferred. John Smith, labourer, was indicted, and found guilty of stealing a chest of tea, value £3 10s., the property of Wil liam Garmint, from a cart in the City. The prisoner was seen to take the property, and when he was challenged with the robbery, he said he was the driver of the cart, and was going to deliver it. Nothing was known of the prisoner by the police. The Recorder sentenced him to eight months' imprison ment. NEW COURT. (Before the Common Sergeant.) Joseph Garbit, alias Frederick Joseph, alias Frederick, described in the calender as an "editor," was indicted fer bigamy. The prisoner, it appeared, was connected with one of the halfpenny journals published in the suburbs of London, and a married man. A separation had taken place between himself and wife, and some time after he became acquainted with the prosecutrix, Anne Pearce, representing himself to be a single man. Eventually he married her, but, on the fact becoming known, his first wife again appeared upon the scene, and the present indictment was the result. The prisoner made strong appeal to the court. The Common Sergeant told him he had done a great wrong to the person, whom he had deceived, and he could not pass a lighter sentence than six months' imprisonment with hard labour. POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Dal. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. COMMITTAL WITHOUT A FINE FOR A RUFFIANLY AS SAULT, &C.—Michael Donovan, a rough Irish labourer, was charged before Mr. Knox with the following outrageous conduct : Mrs. Mary Ann Barwell, wife of Mr. Barwell, of the Spread Eagle, Ox f ord-street, said that about half-past five the previous afternoon the prisoner and some companions came into the house and had a pot of beer. Shortly after some words took place between them, and upon her telling them to behave themselves, the prisoner turned on five of the spirit taps, and as fast as she turned them off he turned them on again. He then struck ber in the face, tried to break the beer engine, saying that he would smash it, and then broke one of the taps, his conduct being of the most violent description. Mr. Knox asked Mrs. Barwell how much spirit she sup posed was lost, and she said not less than les. worth. Lazarus Howes, 95 C, said on being called to the house he found Mrs. Barwell's face quite red, as if from a blow. The prisoner said that the beer had been complained of and given back, and that, as he could get neither beer nor money back, he was annoyed, but he hoped it would be looked over. Air. Knox said he would not look over it. Such ruffianly conduct must be put down, and he should commit the pri soner for a month. DISGRACEFUL CO NDUCT. - -SaMliel Barnes, a private of the 2d Life Guards, and Charles Rice, of 4, Davies-street, were charged before Mr. Knox with disgraceful conduct in the Coach and Horses' yard, Burlington-street. After hearing the evidence of Wm. Morris, 173 C, and another constable, Mr. Knox committed both prhonors for trial, SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. TATTERSALL'S-LAST EVENING. It would be difficult to name a St. Leger settling day that presented a stronger muster than that at Hyde-park Corner this afternoon. Subscribers began to drop in very early, and before 3 o'clock the subscription-room and lawn had quite enough to do, to say nothing of the crush of " out siders" in the yard. Indeed, it was generally remarked that " the Derby settling was nothing to it." Money seemed to go " easy," and if a show of crisp bank-notes be any evi dence of money being abundant there must have been no lack of the circulating medium on the Turf Exchange to day. It was agreed on all sides that the squaring of accounts progressed well, and although several had to be transacted by deputy, which involved additional labour, and occupied more time, still the amount of business got through was some what amazing, and very little "stands over." During pro cess of paying and receiving some intermittent betting took place on the two great Autumn handicaps, and after a con siderable portion of the subscribers bad taken their dept.- lure we wore enabled to collect the following quotations, which comprised all the business done on future events : CLOSING PRICES.

Mr. James Chambers, shipowner, of 27, Leadenhall street, was summoned before Alderman Sir Robert Carden, sitting at the Mansion-house for the Lord Mayor, at the instance of Mr. George William Nalder, zesiding until re cently at Bristol, for an alleged breach of the Passengers Act of 1855. Mr. Westall, solicitor, of Gray's•inn-square, conducted the prosecution ; and Mr. Sleigh was counsel for the defence. Mr. Nalder, the complainant, was called. He said I am a solicitor. I have resided at Long Ashton, near Bristol, for 15 years. In August last I resolved on proceeding to New Zealand with my wife and family, consisting of a son of 21, two daughters, of 19 and 17 respectively, another of 12, and two boys of 15 and 9 years. With that view I put myself in communication with Messrs. Wilson and Bilbrough—and on the 27th of August I took three saloon cabins in the Chariot of Fame, a vessel of about 640 tons register, and one of the White Star line of passenger ships belonging to the defendant's firm. The contract price for the passage was £357 10s., and I paid £l7B 155., the half of it by way of de posit. The ship was to sail from London for Otago, New Zealand, on the 15th of Sept. In pursuance of that agree ment I sold my business and my property, by which I was put to an expense of £5OO. About the beginning of Sept. in consequence of a communication from a friend I tele graphed to the owners to ask if it was true that they were going to take troops out in the ship. I received an answer to the effect that they were about to take Government stores out in her. On the sth of September I received a letter from them, stating that the Chariot of Fame had been taken up for troops, and that they proposed to send ma and my family out in a ship named the Ulcoats. On the 15th I went on board the Chariot of Fame. She then seemed to be undergoing repairs, and the three cabins which had been assigned to me were being pulled to pieces. We are now living in lodgings at an hotel. I had sold, in order to go out, one of the prettiest houses in Bristol, and am now entirely on my beam ends. Cross-examined by Mr. Sleigh—l wrote to the effect that if troops were to be taken out in the vessel I should not go with her. I received an answer that they were willing to take us out in the Ulcoats, where they said we should have no worse accommodation than in the Chariot of Fame. I objected to go with troops, having a wife and three daughters. By Sir R. Carden—When I took cabin berths the vessel was advertised as a passenger ship, and nothing was said about taking out troops. Mi. Westall, the complainant's attorney, said he was not there to say that the taking troops was any breach of con tract ; but what he contended was that the taking troops put it out of the defendant's power to allow her to sail at the time specified, and that she was entirely taken up with troops. Witness said the cabins he had taken were not ready for him on his visit to the ship on the 15th. His furniture was all packed to go, and he had the rest of his passage money i n his pocket to pay down. He admitted he did not tender it. Mr. Arthur Bilbrough, the defendant's partner, deposed, in reply to Mr. Westall, that the Chariot of Fame was ad vertised to sail on the 15th September. Witness tendered the ship to the Government for the conveyance of troops on the 2d September. She had been previously tendered for stores, and when witness wrote on the 2d September to the complainant to say that the ship had been ordered to be surveyed by the Admiralty, with the view to her taking out stores, she had not then been taken up for troops. She was not taken up for troops until several days afterwards. Witness tendered her for about 400 troops, or it might be a few more. He would not undertake to say she was not ten dered for 500, or for between 500 and 600. After the first tender he tendered for 100 more; but Mr. Nalder's cabins were reserved notwithstanding. The ship would carry between eight hundred and nine hundred troops, not in cluding the crew, and quite as many passengers. They contracted with the Government to carry the Governmenthemenat fianhdeinagd themand abouttinheneorffitecinertshiantgs;hnt they 4ely9, did not give up tho the whole of the vessel to them. The ship was to call at Cork, and the date of sailing depended upon the Government. At Cork they were to take up between 200 to 300 more troops. The Government had to fit the vessel up for the reception of troops, and she could not sail until the 23d. All the cabins were now taken up, and Mr. Nalder could not now go in her. Up to the 15th (witness added in cross. exami. nation) the cabins was reserved for him, and up to that time there was an abundance of convenience for him and his family. It was only on his declining to go in th e Chariot of Fame that a pass a ge was offered him in the Ulcoats. Witness admitted the ship was not in a condition to receive passengers on the 15th. Sir R. Carden, admitting the importance o f the case to emigrants, said it appeared that the thre e cabi ns assigned to Mr. Nalder were really at his service up to the time the vessel professed to sail. The question of the ship not sail ing was simply one of expense to the complainant conse quent on the delay, for which he had a remedy. Th ere could be little doubt that when Mr. Nalder visited the shi p on the 15th, if ho had tendered the balance, and said he was ready to take possession of the cabins, notwithstanding the troops were going out, he could have had them. He did not do that, and was offered a passage in the Ulcoats. He (Sir Robert) was sure the defendant would not, under the Circumstances, retain the passage-money. This proceedin g he thought h a d b ecome necessar y f ro m some little want of tact oa the part of the complainant. Undor the circum stances, he did not think there had been such a breach of contract as would warrant him in adjudicating in the matter, but he did not regret that, for he was sure substantial jus tice would be done to the complainant by the defendant either returning the deposit on the passage-money, or find ing him accommodation in one of the White Star line of ships suitable for him and his family.

'FRE GROWING GRANDEUR OF PARIS.--A mag nificent plan has been propounded for palace-like wansions ou the beautiful site of Chaillot. MARYLEBONE. SHOCKING CASE OF WIPE DESEBTION. — Edward Char man, a bootmaker, was brought up on a warrant before Mr. Mansfield, charged as a rogue and vagabond, for running away and deserting his wife and child, thereby rendering them chargeable to the parish of St. Marylebone. Mr. Richard Thomas Tubbs, assistant overseer, attended on behalf of the board of guardians, and said—ln this case the defendant has been brought up on a warrant charged with deserting his wife and child, and I think your wor ship will agree with me that it is one of the most painful cases that was ever brought into a court of justice. The desertion took place in August, 1862. It was early in the month that I had my attention drawn to the case, and oa proceed;ng to No. 17, Quebec-street, I saw the defendant's wife and child inn shocking state of destitution, and almost starving. The poor woman was very excited, and we had to use every precaution to her get her and the child to the workhouse, where every care was taken of her. She went into a very low dejected state, and ultimately went out of her mind, and had to be conveyed to H.anwell Lunatic Asylum, where she now remains. I have seen her lately, and her chance of recovery may be considered as hopeless. A reward was offered for prisoner's apprehension, but no tidings could be got of hiss till recently. The age of the wife is only 26 years. The child, which was only two years old, died on the 4th of November last. James Itace, the warrant officer to the parish, proved apprehending the prisoner. Samuel Jupp said he knew the prisoner and his wife. He behaved very indifferent to her at times. He struck her and gave her a black eye. He was often quarrelling with her. _ Prisoner, who was well dressed, and seemed to take every care of himself, said impudently to witness—Perhaps you had something to do with— Jupp—You base fellow to ray that ? Mr. Mansfield—What have you to say to the charge of desertion ? Prisoner—l believe she deserted me, and lived with a man in adultery. I have a letter to show something about _ . Mr. Tubbs—l have seen that letter, and it is the effusion of a mad woman. _ Jupp—The wife was always a virtuous, well-conducted woman. Mr. Mansfield—lt does seem to me that this is about one of the most shocking tragedies that I ever heard. The poor creature of a wife, through your barborous and brutal conduct, has been driven mad and placed in a lunatic asylum, and your child consigned to a pauper's grave. Goi forgive you, man, you have a deal to answer for, I sen tence you to three months' hard labour. THAMES. CHARGE OF CRUELTY AGAINST A SCHOOLMASTER.— A poor woman, named Jones, applied to Mr. Partridge for a summons against George Wilson, the Master of the Aldgate Charity .School on Tower Hill, adjoining the Royal Mint, for excessive severity to her son, a delicate boy, 11 years of age. It appeared from the boy's statement that he was rubbing his eyes, and for doing s o the schoolm as t er ca t hi m severe l y across his hands with a cane, and injured him severely. His hands were sorely bruised, and there were marks upon them now, although the chastisement was inflicted a fort night ago. The same schoolmaster again flogged the boy with great severity for some violation of the school regu lations. The boy wasblind folded, and the schoolmaster flogged him with a strap over the body. The boy was directed by the magistrate to strip, and he did so. The boy was much bruised, and there were several weals and black and blue marks on his person. The mother of the boy said her child had suffered much from the cruel inflictions of Mr. Wilson, the schoolmaster. Mr. Partridge granted a summons. A DRUNKEN FISHMONGER.—The early drunkard, Thomas Harlocik, fishmonger, of No. 7, Charles-street, St. George-in-the-East, aged 29, was brought before Mr. Partridge, charged with being drunk, and incapable of taking care of his horse and cart at 5 o'clock this morning in the Bow-road. The charge was made out by George Birch, a police-con stable, N'o. 267 K, •who said the prisoner was making a ridiculous exhibition of himself in his cart, and could not manage his horse. The prisoner, who leant against the hack of the dock, and put on a defiant air, said--" Well, I was half tight this morning." Mr. Partridge —You were intoxicated very early, indeed. The prisoner (insultingly)—Well, well, I was drunk— people will get tipsy sometimes. Mr. Partridge —You should keep sober; a drunken man is quite unfit to have the charge of a horse and cart. You endangered the public safety. I fino you 405., and in de fault 21 days' imprisonment. The penalty was paid. WESTMINSTER. TIIE SHAM SALE OF AN ADvowsoN.--Mr. George Lamer, who is stated to have passed by 13 aliases, among which were the names of Lords Henley, Onley, If)ley, Macdonald, and Charleville, was placed at the bar for final examination, charged with having fraudulently obtained £3OO from the Rev. John Cox, by pretending to sell him an advowson, to which was added a variety of charges, as it is stated, of fraud. The proceedings commenced with the completion of the advowson case. '1 he evidence in this had been taken, and was now produced in legal form, for the purpose of being read over. This occupied a considerable time, owing to the voluminous character of the evidence, to which there were no fresh witnesses added. Mr. Arnold, addressing the prisoner's solicitor, said he supposed he was going to reserve his defence? Mr. Lewis—We shall reserve our defence. Prisoner was then fully committed for trial. Mr. Paten, barrister, instructed by Mr. Warrund, then said that he was instructed by the directors of the West of England and South Wales District Bank to prosecute the prisoner for obtaining the sum of £5 on the 7th of May, 1859, by forging a cheque on Messrs. Coutts' Bank and representing to Mr. Marshall, the manager of the bank, that he was Lord Onley. Mr. Paten further stated that Lord Onley was bedridden and could not attend, but his solicitor was there to prove that the prisoner was not Lord Onley, and thai Lord Onley had not an account on Coutt's Bank. Mr, Ribton then observed that the magistrates had no jurisdiction in the case, as the offence was committed at Wells, in Somersetahire, and further stated that the pri soner had been charged at Hastings, in Sussex, with the same offence. A denial we, promptly made to this. Mr. Arnold said he had no jurisdiction, and could not proceed further in that matter , which was accordingly dropped. Further charges were being preferred against the pri soner when our reporter left. Accounts from Japan via San Francisco are to the 24th of July. According to these the English ship M e d usa was, on t h e 15th of July, a tt ac k e d b y so me forts and vessels that had previously fired on the American ship Pembroke. The Medusa received 24 shots and was much injured. She had four men killed and six wounded. On the 20th July the American ship Wyoming arrived at Kanagawa from a trip to punish the Dairnio whose vessels and forts fired on the Pembroke. The Wyoming reported that she had blown up the Japanese steamer Saucefield, silenced nearly all the neighbouring forts, and left the Japanese steamer Laneck in a sinking condi tion. The Wyoming received 20 shots, and had five men killed and six wounded, when she deemed it prudent to proceed to Kanagawa. Two thousand Japanese troops were reported to be descending towards the British vessels, but it was not thought that they would attempt to pass within the range of their guns. On the 24th of July Ad miral Juarez, in the British steamer Semiramig, returned to Kanagawa, and reported having arrived with the ciemi ramis on the previous Monday in Simonosaki Straits. The British steamer Tancredi received the fire from the Ja panese batteries, which, with the forts, were bombarded for about three hours. 153 British troops then landed, who destroyed the forts, batteries, and the town, spiked the guns, blew up the powder magazine, and burnt the village. HEALTH OF THE ARCHBISHOP OF DUBLIN.—The following bulletin was issued on Sunday by his grace's medical attendant :—" Sept. 20, 1863.—Ifia grace h a d a good deal of refreshing sleep last night, and, ru ir ers less pain. There is no increase of weakneFs." A Cumberland Wrestling Match. Our earliest recollections of Cumberland wrestling (says a writer in the London _Review) recall the famous champion, Richard Chapman, of Penrith ; his young and sometimes successful opponent, Wil liam Jackson, of Kinneyside ; George Donaldson, the prince of light weights; the broad-chested and sinewy Robert Gordon; Thomas Donaldson, of Patterdale ; Isaac Woodend, John Selkirk. and Isaac Hodgson. No doubt wrestlers of equal science and stamina are to be found at the present day. But a sketch of the ring when Chapman' s f ame was at its zenith may be read with interest. Let us, then, suppose the ring to be pitched in some pie turesque spot in Lake-land. The day is hot, and the surrounding mountains present a hazy softness of outline. Thirty thousand spectators might see the sport from the rising ground which forms a natural amphitheatre on all sides. About three thousand people, mostly dalesmet o are in the booths, and lounging about the large and well-kept ring. Ile turf within the arena is soft, smooth, and elastic. The lots are drawn for the first round for wrestlers of any weight, in which not less than 124 men compete, It happens that in this round the champion has to try a fall with a mere tyro in the art. A well-set man in white begins to " peel," and all eyes are turned on Richard Chapman, of Penrith, the hero of a hundred victories. He might have stood to one of the ancient sculptors for a youthful Hercules. In height he is about five feet nine, his hair light-brown, his eye blue. His head is not large but well set; his neck is of bull-like strength. Those arms might have slain the NemEean lion, if such a beast infested our happy land. Saw ye ever a leg so " clean," combining s o much muscultir strength with so much activity ? The amateur is, perhaps, most struck with the back and loins, which have a round and compact appear ance which seems to render a complete grasp or hold exceedingly difficult, if not impossible. The simple and rather loutish country-fellow who has drawn the champion in the first round, walks into the ring with a mien of composed and decent despair. He has small affection for his task, but there would be want of pluck in succumbing even to this re doubtable opponent without trying a fall. The novice does not even take off his coat. They stand face to face and throw their arms around each other. They soon have hold, and soon the yokel is lifted off his feet by Chapman, in whose strong grasp be shakes like a reed. Vain is the quivering of those legs, for they may not touch the ground in the descent of the uplifted man ; or, if they do, they will be thrust from under him. He falls to the ground heavily, with something of a thud, and then picking himself up, walks sheepishly towards the ring, to lose himself in the crowd. Roughish work this, Master Richard Chapman I Thou halt a giant's strength, and dost, indeed, use it like a giant ! Surely, a less force would have sufficed to make yonder novice measure his length on the green turf. That fine, stout, good-humoured fel low, Selkirk, would have done his spiriting more gently. So would the Uiverstone champion of last year, sweet good-natured young William Jackson. Gordon, too, the broad-chested and sinewy, would have stooped with his ear to the turf to break the force of a yokel's fall. Sometimes a picked wrestler may draw his match in the first round, but when the ring is large it is not until the third round that the weaker combatants are weeded out. Then the interest becomes intense. Two alone now remain to contend for the cham pion's belt—the redoubtable Chapman and young Will Jackson, who last year, at the Flan sports, floored Chapman and som3 of the oldest and best wrestlers. He is very young—much younger than he appears. His frame is that of a man of twenty eight or thirty, but he is said to be only eighteen. He stands 6 feet 1 inch. He has great breadth of shoulders, and a thin waist. He moves with care less and unconscious grace. Among a number of cheerful, good-humoured young dalesmen, he is the most prepossessing and best-natured. The enthu siasm in his favour mounts to fever-heat as the two men approach each other. They are well contrasted. Chapman's physique is more consolidated ; and the coolness and confidence of long experience give him an advantage which the greater height of Jackson appears by no means to counterbalance. Before they take hold, Chapman throws open his shirt, and displays a chest covered with folds and lines of flesh and sinew such as are seen in old statues of the " father of gods and men." The champion's friends say, indeed, that he has too much flesh upon him, which seems to be true. The Younker is a good deal distressed by his six previous encounters with very tough wrestlers, and Chapman throws him very cleverly. Jackson seems a good deal dispirited at the loss of the first fall, but he comes bravely to the scratch. After a good deal of delay in taking hold, the young wrestler, by a prodigious effort, and without himself falling, throws Chapman fairly on his back and along his full length. The shouts are deafening, and the hopes of Jackson's friends revive. Wrestling, like everything else, has its light and shade. The uninitiated may not be aware that taking hold—" takin' baud," in the Cumberland dialect—is more than halt the battle ; and the delay which sometimes takes place between first-rate wrestlers, before this important preliminary can be adjusted, occasionally detracts from the pleasure of a great match. In the third fall, which is to deter mine the championship, caution becomes the order of the day, and is carried perhaps to an unfair and vexatious point by the older wrestler. Jackson is evidently afraid of his opponent; and Chapman has just had such a taste of Jackson's gr ip e an d l e ngth of reach, that he is determined to have the superiority of the hold, if he must wait all day for it. Th e patience of a wrestling ring is shown in w aiting nearly an hour whil e t h e com b atants ad just their hold for this last fall. Jackson complains that Chapman will not take a fair hold, and certeo the Patterdale hero seems to insist upon such a grasp as leaves his taller opponent the least possible play of his arms. Jackson at length puts on his coat, and declares that he will not wrestle with Chapman. He is persuaded by the judges to make another trial, but with no better success. All this time Jackson is getting weaker, for the process of taking hold is more exhausting than it would ap pear to thecasualobserver. Refreshment in the way of drink is frequently brought to the combatants while thus employed, and a good deal of laughter is occasioned by Jackson's nonchalance in leaving his antagonist to go and eat a pie at the booth. The pie is eaten and Jackson returns. There is reason to think that Chapman's " little game" has succeeded —that Jackson has lost patience and is reckless. They pass their arms over each other's back, and now they have hold They instantly start into a state of intense muscular activity —always an attrac tive sight even in the lower animals. It is this which gives its fascination to a dog-fight, a coursing match, or a horse-race. In the present case the element of human interest comes in, and gives an additional charm to the contest. They endeavour by turns to lift, to trip, and to topple each other ON er. A gallant struggle takes place, but Chapman has the best " baud," and, when both parties have hold, neither is allowed to relinquish it, but must stand or fall by the strength of his grip. This trial is the best of three falls, and Chapman, having won the first and third, is declared the winner of the silver cup. A MASS COMPOSED BY CHILDREN.—The Paris correspondent of the Times remarks :—" Those in England who recollect Biagioli, the celebrated commenta tor on Dante and Potrarch, will feel an interest in hearing that his g randchildren, Henry Perry, 10 years old, and his sister Antonia, 16, both endowed with extraordinary musi cal genius, have composed a mass in music, which was lately performed for a circle of friends at a villa near Paris. The performance was so successful that the youthful per formers were requested to repeat it in one of the churches in Paris. They have consented to do so on condition that a collection shall be made in the church for the suffering Poles. The performance is to take place as soon as the arrangements are completed. The Homeward-bound off Deal signal their number to the shore, and from thence a magnet carries the piaci news to the owners. The same inscrutable force is employed by Mr. Herring in his magnetic brushes, &c. Dr. Hassall states " I regard them as the most perfect brushes hitherto made, as respects their mechanical construction and their maguetical action." They are the remedy for grey hair, neuralgia, rheumatism, &c. N.B.—Counterfeits are being made. Oflices,:32, Baena - ha:l-street, London. THE POLISH INSURRECTION. CRACOW, Sept. 21.

The Paris papers publish the following intelli gence from Rome to the 16th inst. "The second procession of the jubilee in favour of Poland took place yesterday with far more splendour and pomp than on the first occasion. One hundred and fifty thousand persons were assembled around the basilic of St. Jean de Latram, at the Colysee, and in old Rome. Prince Constan tine Czartoryski and a few other Poles, who were provided with special authority, followed the pro cession of prelates through the city. The Aus trian Ambassador, M. Bache, having returned from Albano, attended the proceedings at St. Marie Majeure, in a State carriage. " The Pope arrived at the Basilic yesterday with out having been expected. His Holiness met the precession of Poles singing in their own language, and exchanged signs of sympathy with them. " The deputations from the towns and villages of the Appenines have succeeded in obtaining a prolongation of the jubilee until the 20th Septum. ber inclusively. General do Montebello has caused the Ceptano station to be occupied by the French, in order to prevent fresh collisions between the Italian troops and pontificial gendarmes. " Advices received from Naples to the 16th inst , s tates that the brigand chiefs returned u p on t h e day which had been fixed, bringing with them 45 wounded men who had been concealed, and other brigands now capitulating. " General Sirtoa hes published a proclamation urging the Calabrian chiefs to submit. " The Duke de Morny has arrived, and the Duke de Galliera is expected." A Comic Funeral ; being an Anglo-Italian, Ceremony. Once, I dwelt in an Italian city, where there dwelt with me, for a while, an Englishman of an amiable nature, great enthusiasm, and no discretion. This friend discovered a desolate stranger, mourning over the unexpected death of one very dear to him, in a solitary cottage among the vineyards of an out lying village. The circumstances of the bereave ment were unusually distressing; and the survivor, new to the peasants and the country, sorely needed help, being alone with the remains. With some difficulty, but with the strong influence of a purpoe3 at once gentle, disinterested, and determined, my friend—Mr. Kindheart—obtained access to the mourner, and undertook to arrange the burial. There was a small Protestant cemetery near the city walls, and as Mr. Kindheart came back to me, he turned into it and chose the spot. He was always highly flushed when rendering a service unaided, and I knew that to make him happy I must keep aloof from his ministration. But when at dinner he warmed with the good action of the day, and conceived the brilliant idea of comforting the mourner with " an English fune ral," I ventured to intimate that I thought that in stitution, which was not absolutely sublime at home, might prove a failure in Italian hands. However, Mr. Kindheart was so enraptured with his concep tion, that he presently wrote down into the town requesting the attendance with to-morrow's earliest light of a certain little upholsterer. The uphola.. terer was famous for speaking the unintelligible local dialect (his own) in a far more unintelligible manner than any other man alive. When from my bath next morning I overheard Mr. Kind heart and the upholsterer in conference on the top of an echoing staircase; and when I overheard Mr. Kindheert rendering English Undertaking phrases into very choice Italian, and the upholsterer reply.. ing in the unknown Tongues; and when I further, more remembered that the local funerals had no resemblance to English funerals; I became in my secret bosom apprehensive. But Mr. Kindheart informed me at breakfast that measures had been taken to ensure a signal success. As the funeral was to take place at sunset, and as I knew to which of the city gates it must tend, I went out at that gate as the sun descended, and walked along the dusty road. I bad not walked far, when I encou.n. tered this procession : 1 . Mr. kindheart, much abashed, on an immensegrey horse. 2.A bright yello w coach and pair, driven by a coachman in bright red velvet knee-breeches and waistcoat. (This was the established local idea of State.) Both coach doors kept open by the coffin, which was was on its side within, and sticking out at each. 3. Behind the hthe mc.urner, for whom the coach was in tended,coac in the dust. 4. Concealed behind a road side well for the irrigation of a garden, the unintel ligible Upholsterer, admiring. It matters little now. Coaches of all colours are alike to poor Kind heart, and he rests far North of the little cemetery with the cypress trees, by the city walls where the Mediterranean is so b e autiful. —CHARLES DICKENI in his last " Uncommercial," just published.

DISCOVERY OF ROCK SALT AT MIDDLEO BOROUGH.—The following is an extract of a letter from Newcastle-on-Tyne:—" I do not know w hether your have observed anything about a very interesting discovery that has been made in this district, under the new red sand stone—a bed of rock salt at Middlesborough where th e y have bored, It is about 120 feet thick; it is deep, I think about 200 fathams. It. is likely to prove very valuable in this great chemical district, salt being the basis from which many of our great works derive their product. It will, of course, interfoie with the Nantwich mines and Liverpool salt. It opens out a curious speculation in con nection with the coal Mr. --- went to see, also under the new red sandstone a t Canobie. Of c ou rs e nobody kncws how far and which way it extends. It is now pretty well understood that salt lies in large natural basins, as if the water of a natural lake or sea arm had been evaporated and the salt left behind." tPj&4' t 3.14.1 6.4.0 12.10 7 8 1251 } 127 t } 135 1134 1011 101 i
