The f l n ti , of the wools is taken by the home trade, as e ' r eign buyers are still thinly represented, and operate tautiously.

An elderly man named Monk was placed at the bar of the Bow-street Police Court charged with fraudulently transposing stamps with intent to de fraud the Commissioners of inland Revenue. It will be remembered that a day or two ago two men named Bennett and Shipley were placed at the bar charged with having a quantity of fraudulent stamps in their possession, which they said they had received from a man named Monk. They were remanded, and the report of their examination ap peared in the papers. Yesterday the prisoner at tempted to raise money on stamps of a similar nature and fortunately failed. The fraud was perpetrated by the oval Queen's head being cut from a penny foreign bill stamp, and appeared very neat and cleverly over the can celled Queen's head of a two-shilling bill stamp, giving the cancelled stamp all the appearance of never having been used. The first witness was Fredk. Evans, a retirel army offic.r, who said— I was in the Boar's-head public-house, Fleet-street, yesterday, when the prisoner came in and Flak) " Your better dressed than I am. I've some foreign stamps, and I want to get rid of them." I asked him to let me see the stamps, and,he handed me over the four packages of foreign stamps I now produce, saying they were worth about 12s. I asked him if they were genuine, and he said, " Yes." As I had not the money I took them over to Carter's, the pawnbroker, in Shoe-lane, and asked £6. The assistant told me to sit down and that ho would speak to his master. After waiting some time in the shop I was invited to go to Mr. Carter's private office, where I was given into the custody of a policeman. I was asked where I got the stamps, and I told them from a man named Monk. I was then taken to the police station, but on the representation that I could find the prisoner I was conducted by the police to the Boar's Head, where the prisoner was found, who was taken with me back to the police station, and on Monk being asked whether he gave me the stamps, he replied that he had. George Duncan Arthur, a person who was pre sent when the transaction spoken to by the last witness at the Boar's Head public-house took place, confirmed his evidence in every particular. Mr. Richard P. Walker, chief examiner of spoilt stamps at Somerset House, said he had looked at the stamps produced. He found there were 14 at 25., 20 at 35., 21 at 41., and 16 at 55., purporting to re present foreign adhesive bill stamps to flat amount. All the stamps had been fraudulently transposed from bills that had been used, and a " Queen's head," carefully cut from some other foreign bill stamp, pasted over each stamp. It is intended for the future to have the value of the stamp engraved around the " Queen's head." The prisoner was remanded. 111ARKE7 S-7 HIS DAY. COLONIAL AND FOREIGN PRODUCE.

Brock man, Navigating Lieutenant, steam yacht of Vice- Admiral Sir Baldwin Walker, Commander-in-Chief, in which they proceeded down the harbour to the ironclad ship Hercules, 12, 1,200-horse power (no minal), which is being brought forward for sea as rapidly as the resources of the dockyard will per mit. Their lordships were received on board by Capt. Lord R. J. Gilford, who has been appointed to the Hercules. Mr. Reed, from whose designs the Hercules has been constructed, conducted the members of the Board over the vessel. Not one of the 18-ton 450-pounders which compose the main deck central battery armament of the Hercules has yet been delivered at Chatham from the Woolwich Gun Factory. Each gun has also to be fitted and mounted on Captain Scott's carriages. Their lord ships landed at the dockyard, some continuing their inspection of the joiners' shop, smithery, factories, and other portions of the establishment not visited on Thursday, while others were engaged with the heads of the principal departments. shortly before 12 o'clock their lordships left the dockyard to make the customary inspection of the corps of Royal Marine Light Infantry, the officers and men of which, contrary to the usual custom, were drawn up on the Chatham lines, instead of in the barrack square, to await the arrival of the Board of Admi ralty. Their lordships were received on Chatham lines by Major-General J. 0. Travers, C. 8., In spector-General of the Royal Marine forces; Col. S. N. Lowder, C. 8., Deputy Adjutant-General ; Col. G. Lambrick, Aide-de-Camp to the Queen, commandant of the division, and the Staff at head quarters. The afternoon was devoted to the in si:ection of the Royal Naval Hospital at Melville, and the Royal Marine establishments. Their lord ships returned to town in the, evening.

ENCOURAGING A BOY TO A CAREER OF CRIME.-- George Thompson, a boy, was charged before Mr. Knox with stealing a pair of silver spectacles and two half-crowns, the property of Mrs Ann Eaton, butcher, of No. 21, Silver-street, Golden-square. W. Eaton, son of the prosecutor, said that while in the parlour the prisoner ran into the shop, put his hand in the till, and ran out. He missed from the till a pair of spectacles and two half-crowns, and ran after the prisoner and caught him. The spectacles wera afterwards picked up in the enclo sure of Golden-squ tre, where the prisoner had passed. Police-constable Arthur Cantle, 196 C, proved pursuing the prisoner and taking him into custody, when he said that he went into the shop to buy some matches, and that being in want he took the spectacles. The prisoner pleadtd guilty. Mr. Knox asked him his age, with the view of sending him to a reformatory. The prisoner said he was fifteen, an age which would enable the magistrate to carry out his object, but the prisoner's mother, urged on by some per sons standing near her at the balk of the court, said that her son's age was 16. Mr. Knox said the best chance he could have given the prisoner had been cut away by some scamps at the back of the court putting his mother up to say that he was 16 years of age. It was just possible that in years to come the prisoner would remember what he (Mr. Knox) was saying to him. The prisoner had got into bad company and amongst thieves, was caught committing a robbery, and for doing so would go to prison for a time. After a year or two of misery and pain the prisoner would be brought up again and go to the sessions, and the end of it would be Portland. It the prisoner had any idea in his mind what misery he would then have to endure he would abandon the career he had enterel on. What he (Mr. Knox) was going to do was not in a spirit • of severity, but in that of mercy. He would send the prisoner for a long term, so that he would see what misery was before him, and it was just possible that the prisoner might alter his present career. The prisoner would go to prison for six months with hard labour. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. COLONI&L M."

Cadiz Leghorn THAMES. AN AFFRAY ON BOARD AN AMERICAN SKIP.--- VVilliam appeared before Mr. Paget charged with cutting and wounding John Holm. Mr. Pelham conducted the defence, and Mr. Stod dart appeared for the prosecution. The complainant is a Chinaman, and second cook of the American ship Hudson, and the defendant, a Yankee, is the steward of the same vessel. 'The Chinaman's head was almost covered with large surgical plaisters. He produced a large carving knife, which he said was used in cut ting up meat on board, and brandished it, regardless of the throats and faces of those near him. He stated, in broken English, in answer to questions by Mr. Stoddart, that on Monday last the Hudson was in the London Dock, and the chief mate struck him, and then the complainant came up into the galley, a cook-house on deck, and asked for a scrubbing brush, and because he did not give him one directly, he took up a knife and cut him on the bead with it. Mr. Paget—With that great knife ? Witness—Yes, sir. Ile cut me three times on the head with that large knife, and I went to Mr. Ross, a surgeon in Shadwell, who dressed my wounds. Mr. Paget asked how it was the complainant rested over his injuries until Thursday before he came to that court for process. Mr. Stoddart explained that the complainant went bleeding and wounded to the King David-lane station, Shadwell, and the police refused to inter fere because the Hudson was an American ship. Mr. Paget said on the same ground a mur der might be committed in the London Dock on board an American ship and the murderer allowed to escape. The Hudson was in our waters in a dock at the time the alleged assault was committed. In cross-examination by 111 r. Pelham, the China man said that the chief cook gave him the large knife last night. Mr. Paget—Take it away from him, or he will be doing mischief. Mr. Pelham said the complainant met with very trifling injury, but not in the way stated, that he was absent two days from, the ship, and that he had a black eye when he returned to the ship. He called Mr. Charles Fowler, an English man, who said he was sufercargo of the Hudson. On Monday morning last the defendant asked the complainant why he had been absent from duty two days, to which he made no answer. The de fendant then asked the Chinaman for a scrubbing brush, and the complainant told him to go to hell. He caught the complainant, who struck him on the eye. A struggle ensued, and complainant took up a knife and tried to stab Corrison, who took the knife away from him. The complainant seized a cleaver, and attempted to strike the defendant. In the struggle the complainant fell against the ironwork of the cook house and injured his head. The complainant cut off with the cleaver. Mr. Pelham—He did not cut off any person's head ? Witness—No, sir ; he cut away with it. Mr. Paget believed the defence, and that the Chinaman had first assaulted the Yankee. He dis missed the case. WESTMINSTER. AN INHUMAN PROCEEDING.—A young woman of very lady-like appearance applied to Mr. Selfe, the sitting magistrate, for his advice and assistance, under the following distressing circumstances : Applicant said she had a sister, who was a married woman, separated from her husband ; her sister had been living at 13, Cadogan-street, Chelsea, and the night before last she died there, owing some money. Applicant went to the house and asked for the corpse, and they refused to give it up unless some money was paid. Applicant was willing to bury the body if it were given to her. Mr. Selfe said they had no right to detain a dead body, or a living one either. Applicant said they told her if £lO was not paid the corpse should not leave the house. Mr. Selfe asked whether an undertaker had performed his preliminary functions. Applicant replied yes, and the corpse was in the coffin ; they refused at first to let the undertaker in, and insulted and turned her sister out of the house, who went with the undertaker. She wished to bury her sister, and wished to pay the expenses. She would have paid what her sister owed, but her position did not permit of it. Mr. Selfe said if she and the undertaker went to the house he would send an officer to see that the body was given up to her. Applicant thanked his worship and retired. Major-Gen. Lord George Paget, C. 8., Inspector- General of Cavalry, made his annual field inspec tio❑ of the 17th Lancers, stationed at llounslow, on the 25th inst.

Bird seeker, Amethyst colt, Red Rice, Lady Cecilia, and Stan dard Bearer were walking, then Bonnie Lass, Iberia, Beata, and Crucifixion filly went a nice gallop of about a mile, followed by Arbaces, Burford, Rowallan, and Scot tish Queen the same distance; then Logarithm led the Earl, Herald, and Equerry a nice gallop of nearly two miles. On Thursday the same lot were out again, and cantered twice, about a mile each time. Friday, 7 p.m.—Nothing the matter with the Earl ; sweated yesterday, walked to day ; usual thing after sweating. KINGISCLERE.—On Tuesday the following horses were out on Cannon Heath : —The Palmer, Blue Gown, Satyr, Xi, Green Sleeve, Vabalathus, Adosinda, Cotytto, Pero Gomez, King Cophetua, Sister to Rosicrucian, and Sidero lite. Some walking and trotting took place, Vabalathus and Green Sleeve being sent, as of late, into the hollow. Blue Gown, in company with Xi, cantered twice nearly a mile each time. Satyr and Sister to Rosicrucian cantered twice the like distance. The Palmer, Pero Gomez, Siderolite, and King Cophetua cantered twice the same course. Cotytto showed the way over three-quarters of a mile twice to Adosinda. Xi was then sent to lead King Cophetua, Siderolite, Pero Gomez, and Sister to Rosicrucian a good gallop of a mile. Adosinda and Cotytto galloped a mile and a half. Blue Clown was led a mile by 'The Palmer, Vabalathus then taking " the Gown" at his best pace an other mile. Blue Gown going freely and well. Wednes day.—The same team again patronised Cannon Heath, and the same work as the previous day's was done. Thursday. —The Palmer, Blue Gown, Xi, Satyr, Green Sleeve, Ado sinda, Cotytto, Vabalathus, Sister to Rosicrucian, Pero Gomez, Siderolite, and King Cophetua all walked and trotted for some time, when Green Sleeve and Vabalathus were sent into the hollow. I believe Sir Joseph Hawley is shortly expected, when no doubt her death-warrant will be signed for the St. Leger. NEWMARKET. — On Tuesday morning, Typhoeus went a very good gallop on the Limekilns with Nine Elms. Thursday. —Typhoeus again went about a mile and three quarters gently with Nine Elms. The others did their usual work. Ilayhoo sweated Jasper and King Alfred, going round the Limekilns on the outside. liippia led Restitution and Suffolk a steady gallop of quite two miles. The two year old Director I saw quite lame after his gallop. Tourmalin galloped by herself. Brother to Breeze, Sister to King Alfred, and Sister to Tomato are all going on well. A.

Corporal cantered a mile twice. Wednesday.—Dawson's and Osborne's did the same work as on Tuesday. Cumrox.—At the time of writing there are very few of Stevens's horses at home, therefore my report will be brief. I have not yet seen a complete programme of War wick Meeting, but I don't think Stevens will have any thing there. Abingdon is within a few miles, and I ob serve from the entries that our trainer intends playing a most conspicuous part there. FINDON.-At Warwick, for the Leamington Stakes, we have the filly by Newminster out of Irish Queen, but as she has the top weight to carry it is not likely she will put in an appearance. If she does, I should say that she can have no cossible chance, though the same time I must say she has done pretty well of late. She is also entered in the Welter Cup on the second day, but in my next I shall refer fully to the Wednesday's racing. Our horses engaged in the Cesarewitch and Cambridgeshire are Romping Girl, Thalia, Wolsey, Owain Glyndwr, chestnut -filly by Newminster out of Irish Queen, and Hermitage. Since I last wrote, Hermitage has co..tinued to do nothing but walking exercise. STANTON.—On Tuesday Christmas Carol, See-Saw, and Fidelie. galloped about two miles.

Saunders has about fourteen doing steady work, amongst whom are Nemo, Turn of Luck, Adelphi filly (by Cape Flyaway), and several others. RICIIMOND.—On Tuesday Nothing Mora, Gleaner, and Rel-Tub, after their usual canter, went two miles gently. The Prior and a nice looking lot of two year olds were taking half-mile work. Geant des Bataille3, Brennus, Brantingham, and Valtz alone represented the Asko lot, who wore doing good mile work, after which the "Giant" went two miles. Parasol, Declaration, and Bessie Dixon were doing two ►vile work. Attache, Roderick Random, and Snider did goof mile work. Plaudit has been fired on both fore legs, and is nosy only walking.

Maiden Two Year Old Stakes.—Sagax. Craven Handicap.—Dulcet and Victress. Column Stakes.—Tremble. All are well. Warwick.—Leamington Stakes. Whalebone is well, and does his two mile gallops Each day, going well, and I think will be near winning. Ho is also engaged in the Welter Cup, but I like his chance tho best for the Stakes.

Francis Christian, of her Majesty's ship Eclipse, for suffering the said ship to ground off Heli goland on the 22d of July, to the hazard of the said ship. The Court consisted of Captain Lord Gilford, additional captain of her Majesty's ship Formidable (president) ; Captain Trevenen P. Coode, of her Majesty's ship Terrible ; Capt. John H. J. Alexander, C. 8., of her Majesty's ship Forte; Commander William A. Smyth, of her Majesty's ship Formidable ; and Commander William G. Silverlock, of her Majesty's ship Cumberland.
