We are informed that the Board of the Great Indian Peninsula Railway Company have ap pointed Mr. Walter Knox, formerly general traffic m anager on the company's line in Bombay, to the Post of agent in Bombay, in place of Gen.

The Anglo-Mediterranean Cable has, since its submersion between Malta and A!exandria, been wo rked with accuracy and success. The result is most gratifying, for it shows that the cable is de cidedly the best ever yet constructed, its capacity of tr ansmission being at the rate of more than twenty Words a minute. The returns for the last fortnight Show that the traffic will yield from 15 to 20 per Cent• on the capital. It is expected that Sir James Anlerson will come froth Alexandria in a few days, and it is probable that arrangements may be then entered into for extending the line across Suez down the Red Sea, and so direct to Bombay. The Great Westeru Company (says the Railway News) is at this moment in the enviable position of ha ving more money than it knows what to no with. - Ihe time was, and that not many months ago, when i t Was impossible for them to obtain a renewal of their debentures, and the concern was on the verge , °1 bankruptcy. By the financial arrangements, ti,°Nvever, which they have recently made, they now Ind them Selves in a position to pay off all the de- Dentures as they fall due ; but such is the perversity °I capitalists that they decline to be paid off, and ask to h ave the b onds renewe d at a re d uce d rate o f l liter est• Meanwhile the surplus which remains in the hands of the company is placed at loan with i'ne bankers, at something like 2 per cent., to be available in case of necessity. irt The traffic receipts of railways in the United r l ngdom amoun t e d, f or th e wee k en di ng O c t. „?' on 13,355 miles, to £309,676, and for the ' l) r responding week of last year, on 13,039 miles, to £ 7 76 2 930, showing an increase of 316 miles and of £32,746.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. ASSAULTING A WIFE.—THE HUSBAND'S COM PLAINT.—John Conway, a mason, living at No. 39, Great St. Andrew-street, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with assaulting his wife, Jane Conway. The wife said that yesterday her husband came home about three o'clock, called her bad names, and then kicked and struck her. In answer to Mr. Tyrwhitt, the complainant said the prisoner assaulted her both when he was sober and when be was drunk. All she wanted was to have him bound over to keep the peace. The Prisoner said he could not keep anything at home. Mr. Tyrwhitt asked him whether he meant to say that she parted with his things. The prisoner said he could not keep a second coat—his wife pledged everything. Mr. Tyrwhitt said that if the wife parted with her husband's things the best thing her husband could do was to part with her. He should order the prisoner to find a £lO bail for three months. ANTICIPATING THE FIFTH OF NOVEMBER.—Three boys named John Lynch, Arthur Ring, and Robert Day, were charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with dis charging fireworks in the public thoroughfares. One of the boys said he did not know there was any harm in it. Mr. Tyrwhitt said it was hard on boys that there was not some place where they could let fire works off. The boy said he used to let fireworks off in the country. Mr. ITyrwhitt said that setting them off here made all the difference. Another boy sail that he waa very sorry, he would not let off any more. Mr. Tyrwhitt said the boys were anticipating the sth of November, and he was ballad to fine them, but it would only be half-a-crown each. WESTMINSTER. EXTRAORDINARY CASE OF ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.— Mary Anne Skates, a poor miserable-looking woman, was placed at the bar charged with attempting to drown herself. Police-constable Malson, 42 B, said that on Satur day night the defendant complained to him that her husband was iatreating her. Toe constable said that he would remain on the spot if she would go indoors and interfere if there was any necessity, but she refused. Shortly aft:Twards ho saw her with her husband. They were quarrelling, and he heard the husband sAy, "Arou • •., gccand drown yourself." They were at this time is Cambridge terrace, Chelsea, near the water, and she rushed towards the Thames, followed by her husbani and witness. The former caught her, and they returned to the door of their own house, where they had more words. Witness then spoke to the husband on his wife's behalf, and while he was doing Eo pri soner slipped from behind them and haStened to the river. She threw herself off the bank, and he was just in time to seize her by the foot, and with the greatest difficulty he held her by it until he pro cured assistance. _ Mr. Arnold—Where was her husband during all this time ? Policeman—He was standing at the door without making any effort to save her. He was drunk ; she was sober. Defendant—Your Worship, for 14 years my life has been a burden to me. Every Saturday night that comes round my husband gives me a biding when he comes home. lam very sorry for what I did. Husband—l had a drop of drink on Saturday. Mr. Arnold—Hold your tongue, sir the less you say the better. Prisoner was remanded for a week. TIIAMES. DIABOLICAL OUTRAGE.—EIIen Sullivan, aged 19, who was described as a hawker, but who is known to be the most disorderly, savage, and noisy prc sti tute in the district, was brought up on remand be fore Mr. Paget charged with being drunk and dis orderly and assaulting Charles James Childs, a police-constable, No. 193 11. On Friday night last the prisoner, three ticket of-leave convicts, and others, were making a noise and endeavouring to make a disturbance in Dock-street, Whitechapel. Their object was to get up was is called a " Barney," a mock row, and rob any sailor or others who might b 3 disposed to look on or take part in the " Barney." The ticket of leave rascals and several disorderly females wer4 sent away, and after wine mutterings did not pre sent themselves again, but the prisoner made use of the most diabolical language and threats, and tried to carry out her threats in an atrocious way. Fortunately she did not carry out her desire. The constable, however, had a very narrow escape of being mutilated and ruined for life. Air. Paget commented at great length on the vile and dangerous nature of the assault committed by the prisoner. He adjourned this case because when the prisoner was first before him no charge of assault was entered in the police-sbect. The constable had very properly interfered with ticket-of-leave convicts, thieves, bullies, and prostitutes, whose intention was to ill-use and plunder any person they could lay hold of. Th e prisoner, who was a vicious and desperate savage, and after using the most horrible language he ever heard repeated made an attack upon the con stable, put her head between his legs, and after declaring in course words what she intended to do to him made an attempt to carry out her murderous intent on a kind officer who was doing his duty most properly. He was quite satisfied that Childs did know of the assault committed upon him when he made the charge against the prisoner of being drunk and disorderly, and that owing to the for bearance of the police constable the acting inspector Saunders did not tntcr the more serious charge. The police had most difficult and dangerous duties to perform, and when they performed them properly they should be protected. It was not for constables to exercise forbearance in respect to the charges made by them, but to state all the case to the in spector or acting-inspector at the station-house. It was in the power of the magistrate to exercise forbearance if he pleased. Ile sentenced the pri soner to be imprisoned for two months and kept to hard labour. There was not a worse nuisance in the public streets than drunken and disorderly prostitutes, and he should on every occasion of this kind inflict a severe punishment. raid.

" The desecration of the Sabbath" was one charge brought against him by his opponents. This being brought under his notice, he made inquiries, the result of which was that he wrote inone diately to the chairman of the meeting. He said: " I seed not assure you that I feel grateful for the support of any portion of my fellow-townsmen; but I hope you will excuse me when I say that I entirely disapprove of political meetings being held on the Sunday, and that I believe a very great number of our townsmen have the same conscientious objection. Allow me, then, to express my earnest wish that you would oblige me by dissuading any of my political supporter's from again meeting for such a purpose on Sunday. Whilst we advocate religious liberty, I hope we shall all feel it a duty to abstain from proceedings that would grieve the, consciences of rood men." FRENCH AND ITALIAN INTRIGUES. - 4 -- It is said at Florence that a serious split is imminent in the IliuLtcrial party on account of the attitude of the Government towards Spain. In September a friend of General Prim came to General Menabrea at Florence to ask him to support the designs of the Revolutionists, and that the General replied to him in these words :--" The policy of Queen Isabella is, no doubt; openly hostile to us ; but, as the Minister of a constitutional King, I consider that even a war between Itr.ly and Spain would be preferable to a revolution which must cause troubles in the neighbouring monarchies. As for the crown which you wish to offer Prince Amadeus, I am certain the King would reject it rather than increase the elements of revolution in Europe." An opposition to Menabrea is being organised by M. Cambray-Digny, and the Principal Secretary of the Foreign Office has been sent to Paris to strengthen therela tions of Italy with France. The conciliatory spirit shewn by France in this matter is attributed to a desire to detach Italy from Prussia, and it is added that Napoleon is also striving to bring about an understanding with the new Government in Spain." PRINCE NAPOLEON'S VISIT TO ITALY. A Florence letter in the Journal de Bruxelles gives of Prince Napoleon's mission to Italy some curious details, which would be extremely important if they should prove true. It says that the Prince arrived unexpectedly and had a long interview with the King. The subject of the conversation was the conspiracy of the Italian Democrats to overturn the dynasty and set up a republic in its place. It appears that the details furnished of this conspiracy were so circumstantial that the King was greatly struck by the danger which impends over the House of Savoy, and convinced that it is high time to provide for the safety of himself and his children. It is not by conspiring with Prussia and Russia against France and French policy that the House of Savoy can hope to avert its fall. Any such treason could only hasten its ruin, for France would then have to consult her own interests. The Imperial Government is perfectly aware of the interchange of ideas which took place between Italy and Prussia at the various inter. views of last summer, and the projects, plans, and combi nations discussed in the view of eventualities. Franc can well understand, and is disposed to tolerate that Italy should keep up good relations with Prussia and Russia the moral weakness of Italy, the disastrous state of her finances, the organic defects in the organisation of her army, explain and excuse this attitude. But if unified Italy, forgetful of her origin, and carried away by an inordinate desire to drive the Head of the Church out of Rome should league itself with the enemies of France, and turn against France those arms which she owes to her patronage, she would do more than be guilty of an un grateful action, she would do a foolish one which would draw down upon her chastisement without delay. The only thing, therefore, for the King's Government to do was to give up the pursuit as a vain dream, and break up that demagogical organisation which he had hitherto encouraged rather than tolerated. Sir John Lawrence has been offered a peerage. THE BISHOP OF EXETER.—We are glad to be able to state that the accounts of the bishop still continuo satisfactory. His lordship has several times during the past week been seen taking his accustomed drive in the Torbay-road.—Exeter Gazette. The clerical press in France is very angry with gaeMahon, who, it appears, at his recent tour of inspec tion tirough Algeria, informed the "brethren of the Chris- Can schools who were presented to him, that ho thought it w,uld be much moi e to the purpose if they taught the Arabic children under their care less French . Catholicism, but more French law and Christian morals." THE EARTHQUAKE AT PERU AND ECUADOR. — The contributions to the Sufferers' Relief Fund during the past week have exceeded £4,000, including £l,OOO from Mr. William Gibbs. The Bishop of Durham Las contri buted £lO. It is satisfactory to know that the com mittee has received through Lord Stanley, the promise of active assistance from the diplomatic agents in the distri bution of the sums collected. His lordship has just for warded interesting official despatches from these gentle men to the treasurer. THE DRUGGING CASE.—John Newing, the sea man charged with having caused the death of a Mr. Doar, by putting snuff into his beer, with a felonious intent, has been brought up again at the Woolwich Police-court. On this occasion the prisoner made a statement, in which he admitted all the facts proved, except that it was he who put the snuff into the deceased's beer. That, he said, was done by a young man who was in the public-house, for a bit of fun. The prisoner was committed for trial on the charge of feloniously administering a stupefying drug to enable him to commit a felony. THE BRITISH ASSOCIATION.—The accounts of the local committee for conducting the Norwich meeting of the British Association for the Advancement of Science have just been made up, and show a balance of £332. This sum is to be applied as follows :---250 for the purchase of elementary scientific books for the Norwich Free Publie Library, the selection to be left to the Rev. Hinds Howell ; £lOO to be granted to three trustees for the purchase of meteorological instruments for Norwich; and the balance to be granted to the Norfolk and Norwich Museum uncon ditionally. THE LICHFIELD TENANT NOTICES. —The dispute between Major Anson and Colonel Dyott, the rival can didates for Lichfield, waxes warmer. Last week Colonel Dyott repeated his charge that notices to quit had been, served on some of his supporters, who are tenants of the Earl of Lichfield, Major Anson's brother; and on Friday evening last, at a meeting of the Lichfield Working Men's Liberal Association, Major Anson not only gave an em phatic denial to the charges, but "publicly cast upon Colonel Dyott's character the imputation of deliberate falsehood." Bishop Whipple, of Minnesota, calls the attention of hie countrymen to their treatment of the Indians. lie denounces the national conduct and policy towards the In dians as "a foul blot on the national honour." Speaking of making treaties and covenants with them, he says, "You know—every man who ever looked into cur In dian affairs knows- it. is a shameless lie. The trea'i.-s aro often conceived in fraud, and made solely to put trolley in some white man's pocket." He traces the subsequent steps by which a war is brought about, much as they have often been described in these pages. "'We spend millions, wo kill ten of our own people to one Incl'an, and finally settle down on the devil's own idea that our only hope is in exter mination." An American writes to the Chester Examiner to say that—" Trade societies for mutual improvement and for charitable purposes are no now thing in America. It is also true that money has been raised here, and delegates have been sent out to organise societies for the purpose of dictating the terms of labour; and that some apparent success has been made among the more ignorant, end tEe workmen o , foreign extraction that swarm in New York city, is quite possible. Knowing what had been done, I took an oppor tunity to call attention to the feet that such an effort was contrary to the genius and the laws of my country." Ho concludes that only harm to men themselves, and no prac tical result whatever in America, can come of an attempt to introduce there a system which is utterly repugnant to all Democratic notions, whereby tyranny is merely transferred from capital to labour, and the tree of liberty is cut up root and branch. GENER AI PRIM AND THE REFORM LEAGUE.— The secretary of the Holborn branch (f the Reform League has received a letter from General Prim, dated Madrid, Oct. 29, ISGS, of which the following is a translation : " Sir, I have received the resolution which you communi cated, and which the Holborn branch of the Reform League were good enough to pass, on the subject of the revolution which has changed the destinies of Spain, and which will at length regenerate her. lam very sensible of all the marks of sympathy which the Holborn branch of the Reform League have been -good enough to tender me personally ; and, with them, I have firm confidence that my country is about ;o enter upon a new era of prosperity and liberty. Receive, sir, and will you transmit to all the members of the branch, the assurance of my dis tinguished sentiments.—J. par r.—To _ Mr. J. Higgin bottom, secretary of the Holborn branch of the Reform 4eague,". SPORTING NOTES. There was some good sport last week. at Lincoln and Worcester. The Worcester Autumn Handicap was won in a canter by Vortigern, a .remarkably useful half bred son - of Lifeboat and Madeline, who beat Fidelia Kidderminster, and several others. Surely, after the wretched form shown by Kidderminster on Pitchcroft, his friends will be chary in trusting him again for any race save a selling plate. The Nursery fell an easy prey to Fragrance, the prettily-named daughter of Ace of Clubs and Perfume; but tho performance was nothing to boast of, seeing that Winifred, who finished second, gave the winner 181 b. Moonbeam, though beaten, ran well in the Flying Stakes, as she was only half a length behind Wini fred, and twelve speedy horses came in the rear of Sir Cling. Rushout's beautiful filly.

T 43 filly by Oal ;too out of Crucifixion, since named Atonement, w n the Blankney Stakes, after au exciting contest w:tn Conrad, by a neck, and after her victory the "learned pedigreaist was warmly congratulated by his brethren of the "fourth estate." Kingsley won the Johnstone P.ate solely throngla obtaining the bast of an indifferent start; but in the Bar ton Stakes Sir F. Johnstone was recompensed for the de feat of Bel Giorno in the above plate by the success of Historian, who upset a great "pot" carried by Ventnor. The sport on Friday was equal to that 83312 on the first day of the meeting, aid the principal races ware wan re sp:ctively by Bonnie Katie, Pearlfeathor, Choral, Bel Giorno, and Pensioner. The announcement in a contemporary that it was pos sible no Derby would be run at Epsom nest year has created quite a consternation in the sporting world. Tho shareholders of the Epsom Grand Stand or managing committee have, it appears, advertised that they will run the Derby over a portion of Mr. Studd's property, without having first obtained that gentleman's consent. Naturally indignant at being treated with contempt by parties whose avaricious and monopolistic tendencies have never been questioned, Mr. Studd very properly, in our opinion, declines to allow his ground to be used, until a proper agreement has been drawn up and signed. Whz.t the result of all this will be, it is difficult to guess. The Epsom authorities will be taught that they cannot ride roughshod over Mr. Studd. If the Derby, however, were. run for at Newmarket, Ascot, Goodwood, or York, it would be a boon to both jockeys and horses, as the Epsom course is by no means to be considered as either safe for the jockeys, or calculated to try the merits of first-class racehorses, without risk in the shape of a break down or other serious accidents. The only fixture of note is the Liverpool Autumn Meet ing, which commences oa Tuesday and extends over Fri day. If all the proposed items in the programme fill, 33 races will be decided ; but at this date the list presents an unfurnished appearance, as many of the stakes remain open till the evenings prior to running. For Tuesday the closed races in the card are the Flying Handicap, the Knowsley Nursery Stakes, the Welter Cup, the Croxteth Hurdle Handicap, and the Trial Steeplechase. In the Flying Handicap (4 furlong course), 50 horses belonging to the speedy class have been engaged, and the weights begin with The Corporal Bst 101 b, and end with Clara sst 71b. Those particularly adapted to act well over the course are Indian Star, 7st 101 b; Ironmaster, 7st 81b; Evoliva, 7st 71b; Pew:Heather, 7st 51b; Dawdle, 7st 41b; Virtue, 7st 21b ; Snowdrop, 6st 101 b ; Vex, Est 101 b ; Hereniansv, sst 121 b ; and Bassoon, sst 111 b. Herennianus, who is superior to Macduff, would win easily if he could only be induced to run in public as he does at home ; but, as he is an uncertain colt, I prefer trusting to Wat son's representative—Virtue or Evelina. There are sixty nominations for the Knowsley Nursery Stakes (four fur longs), and the top weight-Bst 101 b—has been awarded to Cocoa Nut. Good filly though this daughter of Nut bourne, however, undoubtedly is, I question her ability to beat such two year olds as Palmitin°, 7st 91b ; Dun bar, 7st 81b; Winifred, 7st 71b; colt by The Care out of English Rose, 7st Glb ; King of the Rovers, 7st 21b ; April Morn, Est 121 b ; Longborough, Est 81b; and Lady-in Wait ing, Gst 31b. Longborough showed fine speed in a mils race at Worcester on Wednesday, and he appears likely to grow into a useful colt. For this race, however, this nice half-brother to Moonbeam may fail to beat April Mora and Lady in Waiting, and this pair appear likely to finish in the front rank, if the batter, indeed, chea act win. The Welter Cup 0.-} miles) will, in the preen net absence of the Makeshift colt, who is likely to be reserved far his more important engagement on Fri lay, be see ire 1 by The Rescue or Three per Cant. In the Ceexteth Hardle Hendicep (2 miles) 24 horses have been weighted, and if Baruaho is clever at jam sing, he mast be bad te bee'. Nevertheless, for this rac e my vote must be Li f Wee' of Nit and Sujah Dowlah. Tue Teia' Ste tp'ee't U. 3 (ab not 2 miles) nary be carried off by The Nan or The Plover, bath possessing the necessary speed for a country like tie at at Liverpool. On Wednesday, four out of the eight rae s in the list are completed, the most important of which aro the Liverpool Nursery an 1. the Sefton Han lie tie. The Liverpool Nursery has a similar oatry to the Knowsley, on Tuesday, and it is not improbable that the same h erse may win both races, as Tormentor did in 1833. I there fore again intend taking my chance with Lady in Waiting and April ISlorn, though it is easy for both animal; to be defeated, when it is remembered that the inej erity of the juveniles entered may have been awed for this class of race. There is an excellent entry of fifty for the Soften Handicap (6 furlongs), and the most notable names therein are Moonbeam, Bst 71b; Etoile Filante, 7st 121 b ; Evelina, 7st 41b; Viridis, 7st 21b; Virtue, 7st 21b; Last Rose of Summer, Gst 121 b ; Vex, 6st 101 b ; Kettleholder, 6st 21b ; and Herennianus, sst 121 b. One of Watsoa's re presentatives—Virtu', Last Rose of Summer, or Evelina —must be dangerous, and if Last Rose of Summer does battle for the Benoist° stable, we shall associate her with Moonbeam as the best pair in the handi cap. The Grand Sefton Steeplechase (about three miles) reads like a "good thing" for The Lamb, even though this year's Grand National winner should be op posed by Globule, The Nun, Goldfinder, Pensioner, and King Arthur. In the Corinthian Hurdle Handicap (li miles) Steamboat and Sujah Dowlah have not been over weighted, albeit the better of the pair may find a difficult task to defeat Barnabo. On Thursday, in the Westmore land Cup (1 mile) twenty-eight horses have boon h.andi capped. Measured through their Doncaster positions, it must be a fine point to decide as to whether Evelina can beat Master Willie, but neither of them may defeat Indi gestion and Sirocco, who are smart mile horses. The Stewards' Plato (6 furlongs) has 33 nominations, but, un less the Warrior, Get 121 b, is in his old form, Weather Isle or Snowdrop will be heralded the winner. The Handicap Plate and Steeplechase Handicap will be better understood after the first and second day's decisions have been published than they are at this date. On Friday, the only closed race is the Autumn Cup (1i miles), and for this event 47 horses remain in from the original 116 entries. Fripennier, 9st 21b, is the highest weight accepting ; but although this horse, in addition to Knight Errant 7st 91b; Griinston, 7st ;91b; and Friday, 7st 51b, are the property of Mr. Pryor, the Mexican blue will be carried, and right prominently too, by Grineston, who is a speedy colt, and will stay the distance. Knight of the Garter, Bst 121 b, is far superior to the cripple Vauban, Bst 51b, and; as the Knight knows his way to the winning post on Aintree, is a high-class colt, and not ovarweighted, he is likely to play a prominent part in the contest. See-Saw, Bst 41b, despite his clever Cam bridgeshire victory, has not a remarkably taking appear ance, as the Liverpool course is longer than at Newmarket and we fear this speedy son of Buccaneer is a non-stayer . The Palmer, Bst 21b, is strongly fancied by an influential division ; but, as he has never yet stayed over a long and severe course, I am compelled—unwillingly—to look in another direction for the winner. Tynedale, Bst 21b, is ,nicely handicapped, and a dangerous opponent to the leading favourites will bo found either in this horse or one of his stable companions —Tabourot, 7st 51b; The Dean Get 121 b; or Minster Bell, Gst 61b. Of this team we like Tynodalo and Tabourot best. Goodwood, Bst 21b, is a goo 1 honest horse, and we believe he will beat Tarabau. 7st 121 b ; Van Amburg, 7st 121 b ; Dalby, 7st 101 b; Abergellie, 7st 71b; Christmas Carol, 7st 71b; and the filly by Now minstor out of Irish Queen, 7st lb; notwithstanding the fact that Abergellie has been backed by a very clever party. Tormentor, 7st Mb, will beat more than beats her ; and, if a rank outsider performs the winning trick, this daughter of King Tom and Torment will bo the one, as she has done well since the Cesarewitch, in which race she ran forward to the Bushes. The Special, 7st 511, cannot beat Orion, 7st; and the latter, who is very speedy, ,nay secure a place. Of the Ilolywell trio —Fairwind, 7st slb ; Deceit, Get 101 b ; and Electricity, sst 71b—Deceit is the best at the weights. And if this son of Fandango reaches the post fit and well, he will beat all comers. Paul Jones, 7: t, is a moderate horse. The remaining candidates with the oxception of Tribune, 7st 3ib; Aggravator, Gst 101 b; Now Guinea, Gst Gib; Lady Henrietta, Gst 51b; the Makeshift colt, sst 121 b ; and Ajax, sst 101 b—call for no comment. And the pick of this lot aro Makeshift colt, Tribune, and Ajax, the latter of whom has been tried with Cock . of the Walk and others. Summing up these curt remarks, I have only to point out Knight of the Garter, Grimstou, Tabourct, Deceit, Ajax, and Orion as the horses that seem likely to produce the winner ; and unless Deceit is sent to the post in his best form, I apprehend the suc cessful candidate will be discovered in I KNIGHT OF THE GARTER or GRDISTON.

At Mark-lane this morning there was a fair attend ance of the trade, but demand in all departments was inactive. Wheat was saleable at last Monday's rates. Flour unaltered in value, without much doing. Barley steady, and tine malting fetched quite as much. money. Oats firm, but no dearer. Beans and peas with out any change. METROPOLITAN CATTLE. The supply of stock at market to-day was rather scarce as regards sheep, and about an equality as regards beasts. Tho very unsatisfactory condition of Newgate dead meat market, which was glutted, thinned the at tendance of buyers, and, together with the close wea ther, rendered those who were present sxtremely cautious in their proceedings. The beef trade was very dull, and except perhaps for a picked lot here and there prices ruled lower. Otherwise, with few ex ceptions, sales altogether impracticable. The same features prevailed in the mutton trade, and with similar result, a large number remaining unsold. Veal and pork sold steadily, and in some cases lower. Quotations, per stone of 81b, sinking the offal:—Beef, 3s 4d to 5s 6d; mutton, 3s to ss; veal, 3s 4d to 4s Gd; pork, 3s 2d to 4s Bd. Total at market—Beasts; 4,360 ; sheep, 21,500 ; calves, 73 ;. pig, 270. BOROUGH HOP. We have to report a continued steady demand for all sorts of now English hops, and, in some instances, at more money. The Belgian and New Yorks markets are much firmer, and there is also more doing at Nuremburg and Alsace. Old hops are inquired after for porter-brewing purposes. COTTON.

The quotation of gold at Paris is about at par, and tite short exchange on London is 451.171 c. per LI sterling. On ciusparing these rates with the English Mint price of ioid. per ounce for standa:l gold, it appears gold is about the same price in London and Paris. The course of excluinge at New York on London for bills at 60 days' Eight was on the last date about 1 91 percent. At this rate there Is no profit on the importation of gold from the United States. Princess Mathilde has appointed Theophile Gaultier, the most brilliant of the feuilletonistes, her libra rian, to which sinecure is attached a salary of two hun dred a year. M.

The Belgian Government has at this moment under consideration plans for the erection of an immense ptlace in the Champ de Manoeuvres, at Brussels—which is larger than the Champ de Mars in Paris—for the Great Exhibition which is to take place in the Belgian capital in 1870. THE METROPOLITAN POLICE. —Au inquiry is proceeding, at the instance of the authorities of Scotland yard, into the conduct of certain of the police whose duties principally bring them in contact with the night-houses and houses of ill-fame in and around the Haymarket. The result of the investigation; as far as it has yet gone, has induced the Commissioners to remove three of the C Divi sion Inspectors to other localities, and also one or two con stables. A great number of police-sergeants are included in the investigation. THE EARTHQUAKE IN PERU AND ECUADOR.—The contributions to the Sufferers' Relief Fund during the past week have exceeded £l,OOO, including £l,OOO from 111r.Wm. Gibbs. The Bishop of Durham has contributed .£lO. It is satisfactory to know that the committee have received, through Lord Stanley, the promise of active assistance from the diplomatic agents in the distribution of the sums collected. His lordship has just forwarded in teresting cfficial d3spatelF2s from these gentlemen to the treasurer. One man was killed and seven were injured by the fall of the walls of anew building in St. Louis. Ca.
