POLICE INTELLIGENCE.---MIS DAY. B 0 W-STRE ET. A Pious MENDICANT.—Mary Crawley, an old woman, well know a at this court as a " blind" beggar, was brought up again on the usual charge. Police-constable Wiudebank, 361 A, said that on Saturday he saw the prisoner begging in front of Drummond's Bank, when one gentleman gave her a florin. Witness told her she could not be allowed to beg, and ordered her away. She next went , to the gate of Northumberland House, where she again began begging. He saw her receive ls. and several sixpences and coppers, in all 4s. 2d. Ele told her to go away, but she refused, and declared that she would not go away. till she chose. At last he was obliged to take her into custody. She used a great deal of bad lan guage, as indeed she usually did. The moment she saw bins coming, Ele invariably began to discharge a volley of abuse at him. Mr. Flowers— How can she see you if she is blind ? Witness—She is not totally blind. She can get her eyes open when she tries, and then she shades them with her hand and she can see quite plain. On Saturday, a blind man came to Northumber land-gate, and as soon as she saw him, she flew into a passion, asked him how he dare come there to " rob" her, set upon him with her stick, and be laboured him so severely that ho was glad to make his escape. Sergeant Refiners said the prisoner could see well enough when she liked. He had often seen her at work in her own lodgings, mending her stockings by candlelight. When she went to the chandler's shop to make purchases she looked at the articles supplied to her to see that she got what she wanted and of proper quality. The prisoner kept up throughout the examina tion a series of whining protestations, mixed up with pious phrases and appeals to the Deity. Reimers•—That is the way she goes on, sir. She gets hold of ladies and gentlemen, and talks to them about God and Jesus, and they pay her for it. Then, when she sees a policeman, she attacks him with all sorts of blasphemy. When she is locked up she strips herself, and dances about the cell, cursing and swearing horribly. She has been 34 times convicted since 1864, and her conviction was lately returned. Mr. Flowers committed her to prison for three months, and cautioned her that if she was brought there again she really must be sent to the Sessions, when probably, on so many convictions being proved, she would be sent to prison for a year. Mr. Alfred Langridge, proprietor of the San and Falcon, Damio-street, Piccadilly, said that last evening he went to the Three Compasses, Pimlico, and sat in the parlour while he drank some sherry and water. When about to go he found that his umbrella, which 'he had placed in a corner of the room, had disappeared. The landlord, the waiter, and prosecutor, all took different routes to see if they could find the umbrella, which it was evident had been taken by some person who had left the room. Prosecutor, fortunately, found it. He went towards Chelsea Hospital, where opposite the College he found the prisoner carrying the umbrella partially con cealed under her shawl. He charged the pri soner, who bad been at the Three Compasses, with stealing his umbrella, when she declared tihe did not take it, al - ,hosgh ho had wrested it but a moment before from her. Prisoner said she was taking 50013 refreshments in the Three Compasses, when she, by accident, knocked her umbrella, whioh was behind her, down, and picked it up, and replaced it in a corner. When she was about to go, she did not think that the umbrella belonged to anyone, and, consequently, that she might as well take it as any one else. Mr. Selfe —They call that thieving. A friend of prisoner, a pensioner from the army, said he took her in there to give her some ale, and she must have thought the umbrella belougei to him or a friend who was with him. Mr. Selfe— She has not said that herself. Witness—She scarcely means what she says. It is quite a mistake on her part. She does not un derstand how to give a description of it. It was stated that prisoner had worked for the same laundry six years, and bora a goo.' charac ter. Mr. Selfe, in order to punish her for the offence, formally remanded her for eight days, at the same time expressing great doubts whether he ought not to convict her of felony. what had judges those parties must have been who heaped the money on him for tho Goodwood Stakes. He started first favourite for the Welter Cup, but was never in the race, and if his running is correct, which there is no cause to doubt, ho is dear at the price that Captain Michell paid for him; but, perhaps, he may win him a selling race or two. Wolverhampton Meeting takes place on Tuesday and Wednesday next. This meeting, once so highly patronised ' when under the management of that highly respected gentleman, Mr Marshall, has fallen from the high position it then held to a leather-flapping meeting. I have often heard the question asked, How is it there is more public money going at Wolverhampton than many of her neigh bouring towns ? The place is situated near to various training stables. The important names of the stakes to be run for at this meeting proves how the town is surrounded by iufluential families. For instance, the Enville Welter Cup, the Chillington Stakes, the Holyoake Stakes, the Wrottesley Stakes, and Patshull Stakes. The meeting has been liberally sup ported by some of the noble lords after whom these stakes are named ; but from SOM) cause or other it only las s for a short time, and their patronage is withdrawn. There Must be something rotten in this state of things, and we would advise those in authority to inquire into the cause and stop their downward tendency. We notice that the Lord of Enville has not nominated a single horse for any race there this year, which looks very much like his lord ship's having withdrawn his support from the meeting altogether. It was thought that his lordship was dis satisfied with the handicap for the Wolverhampton Stakes last year; and, indeed, it was evident from the first appearance of the weights it was made for the home stable. as Honeymoon won iu a canter. It looked at one time a good thing for Fidelia this year, but she ran badly at Goodwood, and has incurred a 101 b penalty for winning the Nottingham Handicap. I think there are others in the race that can beat her, if wanted. Caithness has too much weight ; indeed, I don't see anything with a chance until I come to Pairwind, and I don't suppose his day has come yet, and your readers must look out when they see any money go on. Mr. Parr's good look ing horse Ecarte will most likely run, but, from the run ning at Goodwood, ho can have no chance with ILIUM. If the stable back him, he will win, if not, 1 shall stand the home stable with FIDELIA. The Stamford Biennial looks a good thing for BADSWORTII, if he runs, if not, MELODY will win. Of the fifteen horses that aro handicapped for the Stewards' Plate I like GORDIAN KNOT and BRENDA the best, the latter has often deceived the stable this year, but I believe she invariably wins her trials at home, and if she would only take it into her head to try, she would win in this com pany. I have no idea what is likely to run for the Staf fordshire Nursery, therefore I shall not hazard an opinion ; and for the Euville Plato, I shall stand SALLIET with all her weight, as 9st will not stop her in this company, the distance (half-a-mile) being just suited to hoc The Cleveland Cup, once the principal race at this meet ing, when liarkaway, Charles the T waltb, and other famous horses used to contend for this much-contested prize, has now dwindled down to a regular leather flapping race ; and, although there has been several altera tions made iu the conditions, it has often ended in a walk over. Within the last few years there have been a very moderate lot entered for it. On the present occasion, LORD PALMERSTON and RURIC are the best, and as the latter can stay, as he was secou I for the Ascot Stakes, and will have all the allowances, I shall stand him to win. There are a very moderate lot accepted for the Borough Members' Plate. Ironmaster on his Northampton run ning would seem to be good enough to beat all the lot, but he has never ran up to that form since, and as tho Skipper will not be pulled out Lady Clinton may be good enough to beat all the others. The Chilliugt en Stakes looks a good thing fur Melody. The Ho'yoako Stakes I shall award to Befouls). ,A groat many of our New market horses are entered for the Great Autucau Han dicap, and on my return to hoed-quarters I s hall keep your readers well posted of their doings, and hope to bo as fortunate as I was last year, when I was your New market correspondent; as your readers will remember I stated the great favourite Honesty was a duffer, and that Julius would win. SPORTING NOTES. Wolverhampton meeting will be held on Tuesday and Wednesday next, when, let me hope, the programme will be conducted in an equally satisfactory manner as under the management of a former clerk of the course—Mr. Devareux—when it was patronised by all the surround ing nobility and gentry, besides any quantity of the " fair sex," who invariably dressed themselves for the occasion. Tuesday's programme does not require much specula tion. SALLIET or LADY HIGHTHORN Will win the En vile Plate. As regards the Wolverhampton Stakes, I fancy is a certainty; indeed nothing else appears worthy of notice unless it be FIDELIA, who may turn out next best. For the Tenth Stamford Biennial Stakes I fancy MELODY, but I am sure King of the Ravers is a good horse soma day when he is asked. A; regards the Staffordshire Nursery Ilan...Heap, I consider KICKSEY WICKSEY is likely enough to turnout the winner, and really can see nothing good enough to beat her. tithe Stewards' Plate is only of the value of 50 sovS , and it is therefore uncertain what animals may run ; but if BRENDA dons, she must represent me. 0-1 Wednesday, I believe in LADY CLINTON for the Bo:Ough M!mbars' Plate, and for The C lillingt3n Stakes, after going over the performances, I have most faith in RJBESPIERRE, next to whom MELODY reads most dange rous. If TELE RETURNED should be started for the Holy oake Stakes I think he will win, but in his absence BAR NABO reads like a certainty. I consider it is a really good thing for MILTON, Wile his sundry allowances, for the Cleveland Cup, which oaght to make it a certainty for hint. Of course Toe Earl will not run for The Ninth Stamford Biennial Stakes, and as I should not think Speculum will be sent to contest the prize, my opinion is that UNCAS will win. Bromley is so much of a local gathering that I decline to interfere with it. Stockton races will occupy Wednesd ty, Thursday, and Friday, and never have they been so successful as under the auspices of Mr. T. Crazgs, who, as clerk of the course of this and other meetings in the north, has rondo himself a reputation second to none. The fact is, he possassos two cardinal virtues, viz., civility and perseverance, which are sure to make him conspicuous amongst his compeers. There are thirty-three subscribers for the Cleveland Stakes, but as DRY.kI3. obtains 31b. allowance it should be a certainty for her. The Stockton Tradesmen's Handicap has only fourteen acceptances, and of these I have a decided opinion that FORTUNIO will prove the winner. ELVIRE is not overburihened with weight for the Harry Fowler Stakes, arid I b lieve TILE SPY will carry his penalty of Sib. extra, a•ld win the Zetland Biennial Stakes for three-year-olds. Nly preference isforJENNY MILLS, engaged in the Town Place, but if d - fasted, it will be by BOOTY. Thur -day's engagements at this mo3tiag aro Tho Wyn - yard Handicap, for Which ATEACIIE seems 111)st favour - ably handicapped; and the Elton Juvenile Stakes, for which I prefer POMFRET. Tho Middlesbro' Handicap is run ou Friday, and if ever TimAix could gallop she has an opportunity of winning this stake. The Garbutt Nursery Handicap is a gift to Pom- PRET, Unless LORD BOTUWELL should beat him. Concern ing the thirty subscribers for the Stockton Stewards Cup, FROLICSOME appears to have a chance second to none The Windsor Meeting, which is fixed for Thursday and Friday, is sure to b 3 well patronised, as Mr. Frail, of Shrewsbury, under whose management it is, is a groat favourite amongst the "swells," and in my opinion de servedly so too. On the first day PRESIDENT LINCOLN ought to win the Castle Handicap, - unless LICTOR should beat him. In the Park Nursery Handicip KING OF THE ROVERS and ToTr are not heavily handicapped. If Musa runs she will win the Frogmore Handicap, and in her absence I fancy REDIVINUS. Should ZISCA come well to the post for the Forest Handicap Plato I shall look no further for the winner. The best animal engaged in The Olewer Stakes is CIIANOINESSE, and I think she will win in spite of her 71b penalty, but if she should not I have most faith in PREBENDAL, who is a good looking filly in a small compass. On Friday, The Windsor August Handicap has only about a dozen competitors left in, and of these I think CHORAL has only HONESTY to fear. I do not see anything more favourably in than DISTAFF and TAB VIXEN COLT for the Welter Handicap, whilst SELEITCUS and LURE are equally well in the Winkfield Nursery Handicap. The Hamilton Cup has some of the best speed of the day engaged, and I presume LEO:NIE will beat all corners, but I should very much like to see FLEETWING brought out for this engagement. Their re spective weights would be Leonia 3 yrs 9st, Fleetwing 2 yrs 6st 101 b, and my impression is that the youngster will win. A FRESH MAN. (From a Correspondent of the Racing Times.) The Brighton Meeting only requires a few remarks, as with several exceptions, the horses that ran during the week were very little above plating form. Of course Speculum is the best of the lot, and all those who selected him to win the Goodwood and Brighton Cup will now applaud themselves to the skies, but his backers for the Goodwood event won their money in consequence of Julius having lost his temper and refusing to go near his horses when Daley called on him. The stable held the same opinion that 1 formed of the latter the week before Goodwood, as both his noble owner, trainer, and jockey, thought he was sure to win, and started Speculum to make the running for him. The Brighton Cup was a mere canter for Spacu lum, as Blueskin, who was shinsore,could not move from the effects of the severe race ho had the day before in the Stakes, where, I think, he ought to have won. Had he come a little sooner, an I got up to Thorndyke's head, it is the opinion of many people that the son of Thormauby would have cut it as ha did at Hampton and Ascot ; but Blueskin never quite reached him, and was just defeated by a head. Paul Jones ran like a bad horse for this event, which corroborated the opinion I formed of him the week after Chester, as he boat nothing of any merit. Ho has been called by some sporting writers Mr. Hodg man's steam engine, and it was said Mr. Brayley had backed him for a £l,OOO, and chat Pordham would like to ride him in the Derby. Such remarks are sure to make bad horses into favourites, but Mr Hodgman must now be convinced that the celebrated " Pirate" is a third-rate horse instead of a steam-engine. Sir Oliver did his stable some service by winning three races. I told your readers he was very fit before he went to Goodwood, but all those that he beat are very moderate. Tho Duke of Newcastle was apparently afraid to pull out Speculum for the Cham pagne Stakes against Vespasian, and if he bad he would certainly have been second. He has now returned to New market with all his full-blown honours on his head, and some writers would make the public believe that h 3 is a re gular clinker, but he has done nothing first rate, as I pies Lion if the stable backed Tabouret for any money on the Good wood Cup ; therefore, the latter's running should not bo set down as any criterion to the Ebor Handicap, for if that., is his true form it is 20 to 1 agst him for the York event. The victory of Storm King in the Nursery shows the un certainty of private trials at Newmarket, as the Impera trice colt beat him before they left home, and the stable stood the latter for some money. Tho backers had a bad time of it over Becky Sharp filly, sill they put the mone y down like men, and with as much confidence as if they I were sure to pick it up again. Tho class of horses that ran at Lewes were much the same as those we saw at Brighton. The running of Leonie proved what a lot of weight a good animal can give to bad ones, and the running of Reindeer was much better than the form he showed at Brighton, as he made Leonie gallop. Haymaker is a good looking horse, and is sure to pay his way before the year is over. Cannon Ball's miserable performance showed MARLBOROUGH-STREM. CHARGE OF MANSLAUGHTER.—John Howe, a silversmith, residing at No. 23, %Veils-street Oxford-street, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with causing the death of Thomas Price iu Wells street. Mr. George Lewis, jun, of Ely-place, appeared 'or the prisoner. James Morris, 1.8, Wells-street, Oxford-street, bootcloser, said on Saturday night, shortly after twelve, he was standing outside his door and heard an altercation outside of the Tiger public-house, and on going up to see the caul he saw the prisoner knock a man down. The man raised himself up again, and the prisoner again struck him, and the man became insensible. Some person procured some brandy and tried to get the man to take it, but he could not. The prisoner stood by all the time. The man was afterwards taken to the Mid dlesex Hospital, and the prisoner followed to the hospital, and when he was informed about five minutes after the mau was taken to the hospital that the man was dead he was much affected. In answer to Mr. Lewis, the witness said he did not see the first part of the affair. Joseph Sorry, a tailor, of No. 27, Wells-street, Oxford-street, said he was standing at his door and saw the prisoner and another man talking together, and the prisoner suddenly struck the man a blow on the head and the man fell. The prisoner then picked the man up and struck him again and he fell. He asked the prisoner why he had struck the man, and said it was a shame, the prisoner threatening to serve him the same. In answer to Mr. Tyrwhitt, the witness said the prisoner struck the man brutally, and would have struck him too if he had had a chance.. Police-constable Melhuish, 49 E, said he was sent for to the Middlesex Hospital, and saw a man lying dead there, and took the prisoner into custody, and on telling him the charge he said he was sorry he had done it. Mr. Tyrwhitt said he would remand the prisoner for a week. Mr. Lewis asked the constable whether the pri soner gave any explanation of the affair. The constable said he did not. Mr. Lewis asked the magistrate to take bail, stating that only one side of the case had been heard at present. Mr. Tyrwhitt refused the application. Mr. Lewis said he would like to call a witness. Henry Parke, a young man, was then called by Mr. Lewis, and said that he saw no second blow given, but he saw the deceased while in a sitting position after the first blow, fall back, and severely strike his head. Mr. Tp•whitt ramanded the prisoner, and de clued to accept bail. THAMES. ROBBERY BY A SERVANT.—Mary Hunt, aged 20 years, was brought before Mr. Benson charged with stealing a quantity of lace, four white cotton hand kerchiefs, two napkins, some black silk, and other property belonging to Mr. Benedict Mellish, resid ing at 30, Colet-place, Commercial-road-east. The prosecutor said the prisoner had been in his service two months up to yesterday, and that lately Mrs. Mellish had complained that she had lost a good many things, and that the consumption of provisions had increased beyond the consuming powers of the household. Inquiries were made, and it was ascertained that the prisoner, who was very fond of indulging in a love of finery, had been rob bing her master and mistress. Her box was opened with her own consent, and a large piece of bacon, a veil of black Maltese lace, two expensive ostrich feathers, five pocket handkerchiefs, some black silk, and other property, was found in it. Some silver spoons were also missing, and the prisoner said that a young man who kept company with her, and "followed," tilted the plate basket, some of the spoons dropped out, and he put them in his pocket and went away with them. Mr. Benson said the young man should be sough after and taken into custody. Mr. Mellish said the prisoner was discharged from a former place for encouraging the visits of the young man. Michael Hanby, a police-constable, No. 27 K, said the prisoner had acknowledged she took all the things found in her box. The prisoner said that her sweetheart, a young man, took other things while she was out. The mother of the prisoner made a defence for her daughter, who she said had been misled by " her young m an," who had himself robbed Mr. Mellish. Her daughter was subjected to fits, and she had one which lasted nine hours.. A doctor said her daughter's mind was affected. Mr. Benson said he could not attend to assertions not supported by evidence. The prisoner pleaded guilty, and her master re commended her to mercy. Mr. Benson said the prisoner had been keeping bad company and robbing her master. A young lady's box had been cleared out and plundered by the prisoner, and the articles found in her box were stolen at different times. Ile would take into con sideration the recommendation of the prosecutor, and sentence the prisoner only to six weeks' im prisanment and hard labour. A disorderly woman, a friend of the prisoner at the back of the court, here doubled her list at the prosecutor, and exclaimed, " Oh, you wretch." She was immediately removed. WESTMINSTER. AN AWKWARD MISTAKE.—Martha Carroll, a woman upwards of 50 years of age, of respectable appearance, was charged with stealing an umbrella. WEDNESDAY. LEWES RACES.- FLUDAY. SATURDAY.

At Mark-lane to-day there was again a good attendance, including several buyers from Yorkshire. There were fair arrivals of English wheat, which met a ready sale at 2s over the rates of Monday last. For foreign wheat is more was asked, but this chocked sales, as there was not much demand, and general quota tions can hardly ba raised above the extreme quotations of last week. Flour is rather more firmly held, but the market is quiet. Beans and peas are held for late rates. Malt steady value, with a slow trade. Feeding barley in molerate request, at late rates. Some samples of forein malting have arrived, and sacks of fine are reported at 453 46s per quarter. Oats were in moderate demand, and the turn in favour of the buyer. Linseed steady at late rates. METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET. There was a good supply of stock up to market, and in some cases the Gond:Eon was improved.

The demand was steady and rates unchanged. Quotations:—Betf, 3s 2d to as 2d; mutton, 3s to 4s 10d; veal, 3s to 5s 4d ; pork, 3s to 4s Gd; lamb, 4s 641 to 5s Gd per stone of 81b, sinking the offal. There was rather a better demand, and prices for mid dling to prime qualities were firmer. Of sheep and lambs there wore 30,910, including 6,710 from abroad. Thu trade for the former was steady, and rates firm. For the latter the demand was dull, an d prices irregular. COTTON.

A NEW RECIPROCITY TREATY WITII CANADA. — Secretary Seward has notified the Committee of Ways and Means that he will regard their recent recommendation to Cmgross to ascortain the views of Groat Britain in rela tion to a new Canadian treaty as sufficient authority for him to open negotiations on the subject. Mr. W. G. Grace's feat of scoring over 100 twice in the same match is, as far as I know, without precedent since 1817, at the beginning of July in which year, in a match at Lords, between Sussex and Epsom, both sides being strengthened by given men, William Lambert scored 107 and 157 against the bowling of Howard and Mr. Budd, two of the best in England.—Land and Water. W. KING.—We are sorry to record the death of this celebrated trainer, which took place at Alfriston, Sussex, of Tll?S lay, last. Mr. King was in his forty seventh year, sad sufficed from disease of the kidneys. lie was brought up is John Scott's stable, and was head lad at Whitewall louse for some time. Shortly after wards, on marrying a Miss Tarlton, of Aintree, he became landlord of the Salutation Inn at Doncaster, where his agreeable manners made him a host of friends. His ability as a trainer, for the resumption of which occupation ho shortly seceded from hotolkeeping, needs very little com ment, as he twice trained Dolby, the winner of the Chester Cup, for his owner. The wonderful success which he had with Challenge, The Skipper, &0., belonging to Mr. Richard Porter, for whom ho was training at the time of his decease, must be quite fresh in the recollection of our readers, and we can only say, "Requioscat in pace." ;hare LCD at 20 10i 10 100 1031 1061 I
