A SILLY HOAX.—SJrne of the Yorkshire papers of Saturday last contained acc(,uats of a " Curious Antiquarian Discovery at Driffield," in which the remains of mesczotc life were curiously enough jumbled up with the workmanship of man and legends of the 15th century. The main portions of the narrative are sufficiently remarkable for reproduction. They are as follows :—." In excavating a chalky quarry belonging to Mr W.Clark several interesting fossil and antiquarian discoveries have at different times re cently been made. At the depth of 30ft. fossil bones, in cluding what has been described as a human hand, shells, sponges, and other marine and vegetable productions, have been found. . . . The most interesting object, how ever, which have been brought to light are the handiworks of man. While one of Mr Clark's workmen was employed breaking up the large pieces of chalk which had been dub up from the quarry into smaller portions, for the purpose of being burnt into lime,he was somewhat startled on taking up one of the pieces to fins that it bore upon it a striking but rudely soulptured human face. This figure was found among the chalk which had come from a depth of 30 feet and corresponded in character and appearance with the chalk among which it was found. It presents the appear ance of age, and of having been in the earth for a great length of time. . . This discovery was soon followed by a still more interesting relic being brought to light under the same circumstances, This article appears to have been a model for casting a fibula or brooch. It is neatly and clearly executed in chalk, and is circular, running off in a band or strap, ornamented with lc zenge-shaped figures. It is larger than a crown-piece, and in an indented or concave border is an inscription in antique characters. The words when written at length are, Jhcsus Rex Judceorunt snise rere,' which may be rendered ' Jesus, King of the Jews, have mercy upon me.' There is no question about this being a genuine production of the period to which it belongs —about the middle of the 15th century." The incon gruity of the above statement, and the utter impossibility that any traces of man or his work should be contained in the chalk, one of the secondary rocks and a marine formation induced an inquiry at Driffield on Monday last, for the pur pose of finding out, if possible, what really was the nature of these discoveries. At Driffield, after inspecting the quarry, which certainly presents a breastwork fully 30 feet high. the whole cf the three remarkable discoveries men tioned in the abave extracts were found to have been made by one man, a quarryman. Tuffs man was very willing to give information of the wonderful things he had found. The human hand, he asserts, came out of the solid rock ; but on close inquiry he admit'ed that it was jointed, and that on being handled the joints fell asunder. It became clear enough that the so-called human hand was nothing more or less than one of the common 2crals found in the chalk, but had evidently been rather more digitate than is usual. In like manner, the only solution to be arrived at about the " fossil bones" was that the ordinary baculites and be leranites of the chalk fossils had been so called. The human face, the man protested, came out of a solid mass of chalk. This face was produced at the residence of the owner of the pit, and it is assuredly nothing more than a very bad attempt to carve a figurehead in the soft chalk by some workman who has practised sculpture with a pocket knife. The best solution is one offered by Mr Brown, of Driffield, a gentleman who has paid much attention to anti quarian matters in the locality, that this wonderful face has been carved by some amateur sculptor on the face of th e rock, which had fallen in as the excavation had progressed. It was quite certain that, so far from being of vast age, it had never know n a winter's frost. The "find," too, it ap peared, was some months old. The chalk model is now held by Mr Brown, that 100 Sk I 100 iteck Stook 20 stock 10 100 too too 100 too 100 too 100 Amy. itvk toe} et ocl s:ock THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 30, 1804.1 MISCELLAN EOUS—Continned.

THE SHOCKING CONDITI)N OF OMNIBUS HORSES.— ANOTHER CASE — James Curner, dziver of omnibus 7,390, belonging to the London Gtneral Omnibus Company, was charged before Mr, Tyrwhitt by the .11.)yal Society for the Pre.vention cf Cruelty to Animals, with working two horses in an omnit•us in a state totally unfit for working. The horses wero brought to the front of the court for the magistrate's inspection, and it was apparent to everybody that they were only fit for :he knackers. nu' herford, one cf the officers of the Society, proved seeing defendant driving two horses attached to an omnibus near the end of the Tottenham-court-road. The defendant was flogging the poor animals to get them along, the omni bus being heavily laden. On asking the defendant why he flogged the horses, he said if he did not do so they would stand still in the street. The officer then described the state of the horses as being in the most wretched condition, and said they were both unfit for work. Mr Arthur Cherry, the Government veterinary sur geon, described the horses as being in a worse state than those brought in front of the court a few days ago, s.nd stating that they were both lame and old, and quite unfit for any kind of work. The defendant said the horses were given him to take out by an odd man, and if he had seen their condition he would not have taken them out. Rutherford said the defendant had driven the horses from Paddington to London-bridge, and was on his way back again with a load when he was taken. Mr Tyrwhitt said in all these cases there was an " odd man," who was the cause of the horses being sent out. Tho proprietors of the ho:ses were far worse than the drivers. Rutherford said that the horses had been whipped till they bled to make them go; the insides of their thighs having dry blood on them. Mr Tyrwhitt fined the defendant 20s. or a month, and ordered a summons to be taken out against the manager of the company—stating that he should consider if he should not inflict imprisonment in the next case.

AN IRISHMAN AND THE PASTRY COOK.—Patrick Crawley, a determined Irishman, with his coat torn in many places, war brought before Mr Paget, charged with assaulting William Hogg.. he At eight last night, The complainant, a little man, said he was a pastry contcook in o u f e d h N t o. et 36, complainant,Ratcli f f Highway. that t a re gentlemen came into my shep for a halfpenny " tater." I sold him the " tater," then he asked for a ha'porth of eels. I told him I could not let him have a ha'porth of eels, and with that he made use of foul language, and threatened me. I told him to leave my shop, and he would not, and struck me in the face and scratched it. Mr Paget—l see your face is scratched, but that was not done with the fi3t ? Witness—No, sir, he might have done it with his open hand. He caught me by the neck and pummelled me un mercifully, and would have strangled me if a policeman had not interfered. John Wilson, 152 K, stela that ho found the prisoner with the complainant's head under his arm, and he could not extricate himself. Mr Paget—His head was in Chancery, Jt could not be in a worse position. Wilson—He struck him twice in my presence. The prisoner, in defence, said he went to Hogg's shop for his supper. He commenced with two eel pies, and de voured them in an instant. There were only two mouth fuls, He could have swallowed a hundred of them. Well, he thought to himself he would have a hapenny prater, but the prater was bad, and he askA for a haporth of eels instead. " We don't make any hap rrths of eels," says he, and tould him to leave his shop, Well then the paetrycook "fit " aim, and he " fit " the pastrycook. Mr Paget—ls the prisoner known? Wilson—Yes, air, he is. He was sentenced by Mr Woolrych to six weeks' imprisonment for assaulting a man with a pair of scissors, and he has since been imprisoned for 21 days for assaulting a police-constable. The prisoner is a hawker. Mr Paget•—The prisoner is a very rough, irregular, and disorderly fe I sentence him to 11 days' itnprisoa ment spd hard labour. MARKETS—This Day. MARK-LANE. The supply of home-grown wheat on sale at Mark-lane to-day was but moderate.

Missionary, Tennyson, Siberia, Le Bearnais, and seven others tried their strength in the Seventeenth Triennial, and Lord Coventry's colt looked like the winner at the distance, but, showing the white feather when challenged by Furze Chat, was beaten cleverly. Sheridan, with a heavy commission en him, just managed to land his backers by a short head, thanks to Loates's riding, in the handicap across the fist; and the Whiteleg filly squan'ered her horses in the T wc-Year- Old Sweepstakes, upsetting the great favJurites, Herschel and Lady Egicia—the former a very warm one—in the hollo:vest style. There was a good race for the Qaeen's Guineas over the severe Beacon Course between Evelina, and Oldminster, the latter appeating to have the best of it at the distance; but he was beaten on the mare getting up with him, and D sky landed the B Iron's colcurs by a head.

The Leeds Bank Failure, Three petitions for the winding up of this company have been presented, and this morning the matter came on before Vicc-Chancellor Kindersley, at his private residence. One petition is from Mr Ward, an offi3er of the bank; another from Messrs. Smith, Payne, and Smith, the London agents of the tank; and the third is from Mr C. Kemplay, of Leeds, Mr Warren said all the petitioners requested his Honour to fix a day fur the hearing. His Honour said seven days no tice was required. As it was vacation, none of the creditors could do more than issue a writ. After some conversation thn Vice-Chancellor fixed the 13th October for hearing the petition, which will take place at his Honour's priv.te re sidence. The meeting of the Leeds Banking Company, fixed for Wednesday, at Leeds, has been looked forward to wi,h ex treme interest, The total liabilities were stated at the meet ing at £1,330,308, including unsecured creditors for £639,337. Other creditors hold security to the extent of £9),571. The liabilities on bills receivable bearing the en dorsement of the bank amount to no less than £1,990,991, Of this, £1,000,000 is estimated to rank against the bank, and, deducting this from £400,000, estinia'ed as likely to be recovered from the drawers, &c., there appears to be a de ficiency of XGO ',OOO on the bill accounts. This of itself seems to involve a call of upwards of £BO per share upon the unfortunate shareholders. The total assets of the bank were stated at £3_6,6)5. The meeting decided that the company shall be wound up, and Mr C. Butler, (;1 London, Mr AV, Ledgard, of Eyres and Sons, Leda, and Mr Wm. Turquand, tne accountant, of Mtsst a Coltman, Tat pi infi, Youngs, and Cu., of London, were recommended as deters. In the Times city article is stated that about 253 p-r -sons were present at the sharcheldele useetibg. At the meeting of creditors the accounts were eitcUssed end ques tions asked, Lut no resolutions were adopted. The general itnpres,ion among them seemed to be that the assets woto overvalued and the liabilities under estimated, nee that .£1.,0e0,00,1 will be rcquireo. At this meeting the number present was also about 250. At both meetings the conduct of Mr Greenland, the manager, was deservedly reprobated with great severity. Among the provincial failures announced during the past few days have been Messrs. Lightfoot and Sous, sugar refiners and rice millers, at Liverpool ; Mr Robert Wien dell, of Manchester, corn merchant ; and Mr David Rams den, of Cottingley, near Bradford, spinner and ruanufac tut er. Mess's. Walker, Cotesworth, and Co., of ,Liverpoel I have addressed a circular to their creditors, reque,,tieg for bearew_.e until the result shall have baeu ascertained of the negotiations pending with regard to the Leeds Backing Company. FAILURE AT BRADFORD.-. On Wednesday a meeting of the creditors of Mr David Ramsden, worsted spinner, of Bradford, was held in his counting-house in that town, Mr Joseph Oidy presiding, Mr Blackburn, accountant, read a copy of Mr Itamsden's stocktaking made in June last, which showed him to be solvent, and possessed of a small surplus, Re then read a statement of his affairs brought forward to the present time, by which it appeared that Mr Ramsden's liabilities amount to £40,148, of which about which £lB,OOO is owing t o the Leeds Bankin g Compan y . The result of i h ehaassets were estimated to r ealise £39,076. Mr Black burn said the books ha d been admirably kept, and he had bee n able to extract particularstheretromeeprtae showing the year in b transactionscarious inquiries, i d ri uiners were satiefactorily j a nswerei by i whichg every his present business. The credit ors ma d e Mr Ramsden and the accountant. Mr. Ramsden then with drew, and his affairs were discussed with freedom. A re solution was unanimously passed to the effect that the creditors were willing to accept from Mr Ramsden a com position of 15s in the pound on the amount of their respec tive debts, such composition to be paid by three instahnents of 5e each, at three, six, and nine months each, provided the last instalment should be satisfactorily guaranteed. Messrs. J. Oddy, T. Renton, Crabtree, and E. li, Ward were appo'nted a committee to c infer with Mr Ramsden as to the course to be put sued until the composition arrange ments are fixed, and power was given to them to approve, on behalf of the creditors, persons who may be proposed as guarantee for the paymeet of the last installment, The creditors present expressed their sympathy with Mrßams. den, and a hope that he might be able to re-establish him self in business. The quotation of gold at Paris is about 3 per milk pm., at d the short exchange on London is 25.321 per LI sterling. On comparing these rates with the English Mint price of 17s. 100. per ounce for standard gold, it appewts that gold is about 3-IMo per cent. dearer in London than ix Parl3.
