THE QUEEN'S VISIT to BELGIUM. ARRIVAL OF HER MAJESTY. OSTEND, THURSDAY AFTERNOON. After my dispatch was forwarded yesterday the weather became so threatening that few imagined the royal yacht would leave her snug quarters in Cowes roads to knock about in the boisterous waves of the Channel. Night closed over Ostend in storm and rain, and there were many who judged that her *Ma jesty would abandon her intention of coming over al together, as it was but natural to suppose the same wild sort of work was going on at the other side of the water. It was therefore with some surprise, not withstanding her Majesty's reputation for punctuality and tenacity of purpose, that they heard the royal squadron might be positively expected in harbour before noon to-day. Any doubt they might have had as to the accuracy of this information was speedily dispelled by the preparations which were visible soon after eight o'clock. Drums began to rattle away at the rappel in all quarters, to collect the soldiery from theirvarious billets, and about ten o'clock the sight of three or four companies of the corps cf elite marching along the quays, with some half-dozen of " dry drums"—that is, without any accompaniment—rolling away at the head of the column, condensed the scattered numbers of the crowd and brought them up to the steam-boat jetty, where the men took up their posi tion forming two sides of a square, one of which was at right angles to the river. Soon after the full strains of a very fine brass band announced the ap proach of more troops, and a couple of companies of the 7th Regiment of the Line wheeling round by the Custom-house stockade, dressed into line so as to form another side of the square, which was then com pleted by the jetty-trout, where the packets lie, just opposite the Douane. These arrange ments were explained by the intimation that the Royal squadron was actually in sight, and, on re pairing to the lighthouse embankment, and looking away to the eastward, there, far down on the horizon, could be discerned just one little trail of smoke streaked across the sky. Sharp eight, aided by a good glass and the elevation of the marine look-out post, had already ascertained that these feint indications of life on the waters proceeded from four steamers close together, of which the foremost loomed like the royal yacht. Acting upon the intelligence, the crowd moved down along the dique, and there cettled themselves into chairs and upon benches with great composure to await the course of events, clustered upon the Phare and on the jetties, and scattered their masses on the sea-wall ; every sort of " bring in near" was in requisition, from the tiniest of lorgnettes to the longest of telescopes, but as the vessels took time to rise on the horizon, the greater part of the company devoted themselves to the creature comforts which the restaurants and estaminets supplied, and the whole line of coast was soon hazy with tebaeco smoke. Looking seawards there was a turbid ms=s of water heaving with a gentle undula tion from the effects of the recent wind, and dashing over toe hithers and in among the bathing-boxes at your feet in kreekers of yellovv-seep suck—near in shore a solitary lazy old schuyt aaabbllingabout on the swell, aed far cut and on the very horizon soil, floe little black spo's with dark smoke wreaths above them. A t either side was the sea wall covered •,eith hundreds of brave Belgians, male and female, in all the taste ful eccentricities of an ad libitum sea-side attire. S area of our excellent countrymen, half ashamed of their incipient moustaches, and in a state of high im portance, and groups of booted genedarrens in yellow lea•her and cocked hats, pigeon-hearted guides, more aureate than Solomon in all his glorieg, stray chasseurs, dapper infantrymen, and sombre priests, trying to look as if they did not care about such worldly matters. Behind you the inas,ive ramparts faced with bright and verdant sward, rose from the deep moat high around the town, so that you could only see the church steeples or a few aspir ing old gables and house-tops shining painfully with bright red tiles in the sun above them. Here and there glanced the shako of an artilleryman above the parapet, just putting one in mind that if there should be a shot in that particular 32-pounder which was trained there just astern of you, with its grim muzzle peering out through the fresh grass like a tiger from a jungle, the consequences would be excessively unplea sans. And fLr beyond lay the b ire level country, sleep ing as it were beneath the blazing heat, and licking up the canals that crept over its bosom into dirk woods and d :zy oldtowns, till it was lost in the warm fog which came up heavily from swamp and marais beneath the fervent heat. In the streets some slight aceassions were made to the decorations of flag and floral emblems, and additional triumphal arches had been hastily and lightly run up across the route from the jetty to the royal residence. Every outer wall in the neighbourhood displayed its banner; the glass:pen dants of the mural crowns in the streets made pleasant music, and peals of fine toned bells from orthodox steeples rang out cherily, albeit in honourofa Protestant Q Leen. All thepoints from which aviewcould be obtained of the harbour and of the landing-place were fully ccett piA. In a word, Ostend gentle end simple, inhabi tant and stranger, made universal holiday in honour of the friendly Sovereign who was so rapidly ap proaching their shore. Another half-hour and the little squadron could be discerned with the naked eye—a few minutes more, and to a practised vision the identities of each vessel established themselves. There came the Royal yacht in the van, throwing the spray in sheets from her bows, and moving on with steady stateliness to port, behind, the grace ful little Fairy rolling her gilded sides in the water, which was whisked up into foam by her screw, and shaking her slender reeds of masts to and fro as if in play ; then the Vivid—worthy of her name—checked to quarter speed, and dancing along like a curbed sea-horse. After her the Admi ralty yacht, the Black Eagle, which is certainly not a sea eagle, and, nearly hull down in the distance, the Stromboli, vomiting out as much smoke as its insular namesake in a vain attempt to join her com panions. In this order the ships swept on, and about half past eleven o'clock the Royal yacht dashed up the narrow entrance between the two piers, which lead to the harbours (it being then just at the top of high water), the Royal standard at the main—the Admi ralty flag at the fore—and with the lead going from the chains. As she rounded the light house a spurt of flame flashed from out of the grass rampart, and the thuncLr of the first gun of a royal salute echoed through every street in Oitend. The crowd on the piers took off their bets and waved handkerchiefs as the yacht pasted, hut so far as my ears could judge there was no cheer ing. The water not being very ileep, the engices were " sloweJ," and she proceeded with diminished speed on to the place of debarkation. Her Msjrsty was on the quarter-deck NN ith Prince Albert and four of the royal children, and returned the mute saliva tion% of the people with curtsies. At the Custom -horse the troops got under arms at the first gun from the battery, and kept the square in front of the land ing-place clear for the reception of the Queen. In side the square were King Leopold (dressed in the uniform of a Belgian General), Major Connt Moerkerke, General Goblet, and the members of his staff', and the bands of the regiments on duty. Before the echoes of the last gun of the salute had died away, the yacht had nearly arrived at her moorings by the jetty. She was piloted by Mr. Smithett, R.N . ., Commander of the Vivid, and was so admirably managed, that in a few moments she was abreast or, and nearly parallel with the jetty. The space reserved for her was but little more than her own length, notwithstanding which she was hauled alongside in a marvellously short space of time, and made fast so as to allow of a gangway being run from the shore astern of the paddle-box. Her Majesty and Prince Albert, who had left the quarter-deck, and mounted up to the paddle-box platform, with the Prince of Wales, his brother, the Princess Royal, and the Princess Alice, soon atter the yacht en tered the harbour, seemed in high epirits, and looked as if they enjoyed the scene amazingly ; just at this moment a heavy drizzling shower begin to fall which made the shelter of the platform canopy very acceptable. In attendance on her Majesty were Lady Canning and Miss Dawson, Colonel Phipps and Sir James Clark, M.D , the latter en route to Brus sels, where the Queen of the Belgians is stated to be detained by the delicate state of her health ; and on the platform was Sir F. T. Bering, First Lord of the Admiralty, who was a passenger on board the yacht, having returned from his visit to Cherbourg. Her Majesty was dressed in plain silk mourning. Prince Albert wore a black froekcoat and trousers, and the young Princes were attired as sailors—little black glazed hats, round jackets, and wide pantaloons. As the yacht hauled up alongside, at twelve o'clock, the Queen and suite descended to the quarter-deck, and the King of the Belgians stepped up the gang way an d welcomed his Royal guest with great warmth. Toe interview was like that whi c h ta k es place between old friends. The King shook bands and was shake n bands with most cordially. H e took particular notice of the children, who looked in good but not in robust health, and the whole party were soon engaged in animated and apparently in happy conversation. Meanwhile the bands had been - "God save the Queen," till they were all out and an interval of about half an hour any movement was made which the ietentiona of the Queen. the English Consul, wont on 'as graciously received by her Ma ' members of the King's staff, but no the Chore. At 1 o'clock five of the drove into the square in obedience to the yacht, and soon afterwards King ncovered head, led her Majesty along im the deck, and hand* d her into the principal equipage. The crowd cheersd vigorously soon as they perceived the Queen ; every h q was off, and as Prince Albert followed with the Royal children, the cheering was renewed, the troops closing playing "Uod sz of 4 .. , and ti v i virtLlP 37-i- . beore 41 ,: 1 p f ,- ;a.

The Royal suite having got into the other carriages, after an interval, followed her Majesty, who, preceded by outriders, had slowly driven up to the Royal residence. Her reception was very gratifying, very quiet, but full of sentiment and respect. From my airy and very tarry elevation (for I was obliged to get up the rigging of a lucky vessel alongside the quay, in order to get a view of what passed) nothing was visible but waving kerchiefs and hats, while the faint buzz of the multitude with difficulty rose above the swell of the band, which were playing cheerful polkas and waltzes in the square. The few vessels in the harbour were crowded with men, and one thorough-built British coaster, rejoicing in the happy name of Prince of Wales, threw out her dirty fig to the world, and displayed a flaming union jack from her stern. The Royal yacht soon afterwards hauled out into the middle of the har bour, below the Great Sluice, and lay alongside the Black Eagle, the Fairy took her station a-head, the Vivid still further down the channel, towards see, whilst the Stromboli anchored in the offing alto gether. In a few minutes her Majesty arrived at her destination, and but for a guard of honour before the door and a few stragglers, nothing would have given notice that anything particular was taking place in the dull-looking mansion. A clejeiiner ri la fourchelte was prepared for the Royal party, after partaking of which the Queen, King Leopold, Prince Albert, and the Royal children took a drive to the West Strids, where they got out and walked for a little, returning to town in about half-an -hour. The day is very fine, but the wind is still a little sharp, though everything promises fine weather. Her Majesty will dine with the Bing at his house, and Sir F. T. Baring and Lord A. Fitzclarence have had the honour of receiving invitations to join the royal party. The officers of the squadron, Commander Crispin (Victoria and Albert), Master Commander Walsh, Master Commander Cooke, Master Commander Smithett, and Sir J. Hamilton (who was on board the Vivid), &c., have been invited to dine, by his 111-jesty's command, at the royal mansion also ; and printed cards of invitation to that effect have been issued by the principal aide-de-camp. It is affirmed that up to the lust moment the King did not know whether her Majesty would come on shore or not, but it certainly seems as if preparations were made on the supposition that she would. It is arranged that her Majesty will stop here for the night, and will leave at twelve o'clock to-morrow for England. lam happy to say they had a very fine passage over here. The • quadron left Osborne, as you most probibly know, a little before six on Wednesday evening. The wind was low, and the sea sm :otb, and so they steered under easy sail, or rather at low steam, all the night for thecoast of Belgium skirting the shore to Dover, which they passed about five o'clock this morning. They were seen by the sharp-eyed sentries on the heights ' and received a royal salute es they pasted. The Royal party dine at seven o'clock. All sorts of balls and little enter tainments are going on in the town, and Ostend is retrieving its character as much as possible, and de porting itself with ge eat j )11ity. The military have been under arms nearly all day, but are now dis missed.—Times. A 7.‘ C E. We read in the Evencincnt —`' S'3veral members of the National Assembly, and two generals, old friends of the Orleans family, left Paris this morning for Brussc.ls, on a visit to the Prince de Joinville, who has arrived in that city, and taken up hii residence at the Ho - el de Sixe." I: is confi icntly stated, says the Presse, th the French Governmee, following the example of En;- land and Russia, is about to send to Copnbogen an extraordinary envoy ; at the same time several vessels of the Cherbourg squadron have received, it is said, an order to hold themselves ready to sail to the Baltic. The funeral of M. de Bala is took place on Thursday, in presence chiefly of literary men, and of his pri vate friends. The corners of the pall were held by M. Victor Hugo, M. Alexandre Dumas, M. S2.intc- Beuve, and M. Baroche, the Minister of the Inte rior, who, without receiving an invitation, came to pay a last compliment to the literary merit of the deceased. Amongst the persons present was Ba ron de Rothschild. When the cortege quitted the church of St. Philippe-du-Roule, it proceeded along the boulevards to the cemetery cf Pere la- Chaise. M. Victor Hugo pronounced a farewell ad dress over the tomb, and M. Desacyars, President of the Society of Men of L?tters,. likewise uttered a few words of respect and eulogy. M. de &Inc leaves no firtune, so that Madame Eve de B.4lzac remains but ind;fierently provided for. The political prisoners under sentence of tr.mspor tation for life, and who are now confined at Doul lens, are, it is said, to be removed to the citadel of Belle-Isle-en-Mer, that place having been fixed on by a decree of the President of the 'Republic us to the place of confinement fir prisoners under that sentence. The Nourelliste of-Marseilles, of Tuesday, had the following "communicated note:'— "As s: veal journals have anfriunced, the Supreme Board if Public Health at Naples recently rasolvcd, after several deliberations, to impose a quarantine of 21 (lapin aq arrivals of passenger;, merchandise, and vessels from Mal:a, Kirseilles, and Bone. Such a measure, inspired, it appears, by the incidents which have recently taken place at Marseifle vv,..s calculated to cause much anxety to commerce. We have the satisfaction of announcing on authority of a letter from the French legation at Na ples, received this morning by the special commissary of the sanitary se-vice, that this quarantine of 21 days has been taken off, with respect to Marseilles, by a re solution of the Board of Health of Naplei, dated the 13th. The quarantine consequently remains a: it pre viously was.' THE LEGITIMATIST CONGRESS AT WIESBADEN. If we are to credit the Pouvoir, the following is the result of the political conferences hell at Wiesbaden:— " Twenty-eight Legitimatist Deputies," it says, " were received in a I),,dy by the Count de Ch. mh , rd, after being individually admit!ed by the P:ince to private andienc.s. After a conference of nerly three buns, in which tf e situation of Frs nee was examined, analysed, and discus Fed, it was decided-1. Th it the 14-..gitimatist party should immediately abandon the system of conciliatior, tusume an attitude and policy of its owe, and act exclusively with a view to promote the triumph of its principles. 2. That, in case it was proposed to the National Assembly to prolong the powers of the Pr:- stdeut, the L-gitimatists should systematically oppose that prolongation, hecatise the measure giving the Count de Paris time to complete his mjority, the chances and p:e erssions of the Count de ChamLerd would thereby be e,m6iderably diminish/A. 3. That M. Berrycr should continue to be the cfficial and avowed chief of the party, and that all the loyal and devoted L"gitimatists should combat unch r his direction. (The Gazelle de France was specially disavowed a , sd blamed, on account of ail acrimonious tone of its polerCque.) 4:h. Finally, Count de Chamhord declared that the report of a recon ciliation bateveen the two branches ef the house of Bourbon was totally uTlyandecl; but he added, that if the chief of the Lranch of Orleans made one step, ho was ready to make ten." collieries of the Sheffield coal company the amount of copper taken was not more than about one-fourth of what it was three years ago. Councillor DEWSNAP said that during the last two years the value of copper had not been more than 101. per lb., while the value in pence would be about 17d. per lb., for it took about seventeen old pennies to weigh a pound. Councillor LAWTON observed that it was profitable to the Mint to coin copper, and therefore he thought it probable that they had plenty of copper coin. Councillor BRETTAIN said he had made no inquiry at the Mint on the subject, but he thought that if the inhabitants of this town did not get copper coin enough till private parties sent for it from the Mint at their own cost, they would not have a sufficient supply yet awhile. Councillor ATKIN warned the council that they would be committing themselves to an absurdity if they adopted the memorial, without first ascertaining that there was not copper in the Mint. Mr. Brittain was mistaken when he said the parties would not send to the Mint for copper coin ; he knew of a cave in which 251. worth of new farthings was got from the Mint by a shopkeeper for the purpose of inducing custom to his shop. Councillor BUITTAIN having read his memorial, it was carried by a large majority.—Sheffield Times. PRICES OF SHARES IN BANKS, ASSURANCE, AND OTHER COM, PANIES' STOCK.

Oa Tuesday last considerably excitement was caused in Preston, by the apprehension of Mr. Henry Blackhurst, a solicitor practising in Preston, on a charge of forging a codicil to the will of his late wife, Mrs. Catherine Blackhurst. Mrs. Blackhurst was t .vice married, her first husband bring Mr. Max well, a wealthy merchant of Glasgow, and through him she became possessed of considerable property, which, at the time of her marriage with Mr. Black hurst, 25 years ago, was settled upon herself. Mrs. Black!ourst died on the 31st of July last, and Was in terred on the 31 inst., and since her death disclosures have been made which led to the apprehension of Mr. Blackhurst on a charge of forgsry. On Wednesday last the prisoner was brought up for examination before the borough magistrates. The court was crowded to excess, Mr. Blackhurst being well-known throughout the whole of the county. Mr. Catterall, solicitor, prosecuted, and Mr. Segar, barrister, de fended. Mr. Catterall, in opening the case, said he had a serious charge to prefer against Mr. Blackhurst---a less thanheforgery r7e 3 f forging n a codicil to the will of consisted in the prisoner chargehi his la late e of wife. no T having, after a codicil had been made and properly at tested, inserted in that codicil a devise to himself. The evidence would in a great measure consist of the do cument itselr, and he was afraid when the magistrates tine to look at it that they would have no doubt that the words which gave the property to Mr. Blackhurst had been inserted in the codicil subsequent to its ex ecution by Mrs. Blackhurst. Oa the present occa sion the prosecutors were the bailiffs of the city of Glasgow, and the way in which they became prosecu tors was by a will dated the 25th of September, 1847, which gave to them the whole of Mrs. Blackhurst's property in certain charitable trusts for the foundation of a school, to be called the Maxwell School, after the name of her late husband. The codicil which was the subject of the present charge was dated the 3d of June, 1850; and on that day Mr. Aseroft, the attor ney, and Mr. Ambler, an attorney's clerk, were at Lisbon-hall, the residence of Mr. Blackhurst, when they were invited by Mr. Blackhurst to attest a codi cil to his wife's will, which he (Mr. Blackhurst) was then preparing. Mr. Ascreft and Mr. Ambler signed the will, and shortly afterwards left the place. Since the death of Mrs. Blackburn the codicil had been produced, and f..orn its appearance he should prove that it had been altered. Mr. Catterall then called Mr. Ascreft, who said that he had not observed at the time he signed the will the crowding_ cr inter lining which now appeared upon the first page. Had it been there, he must have seen it. It consisted in the insertion of the words "And, lastly, I give, de vise, and bequeath all my real and personal estate and effects to my husband, his heirs and assigns for ever absolutely." As a professional man, had he seen any interlining he should have placed his initials opposite to it. Oilier evidence was called to prove the will of 1847, and also several codi cils to it. Two witnesses were then examined who deposed to Mrs. Blackhurst having, previously. to her death, stated that she was afra:d the prisoner would put her hand to paper after she was dead, and that it was her intention to leave the interest of her property to her husband 'luring his lifetime, and that her real and personal estates should afterwards go to the trus tees in Glasgow. The bench remanded the prisoner till Monday next, to give time for the production of further evidence. B s il was refused, and the prisoner was at once removed to the House of Correction. DEATH OF MR...TAS SCOTT WALKER. Not unexpectedly, but still with feelings of regra, we have to rect.rd the devil of Mr. James Scott Walker, who was well linewn in this town from the long period that ho had teen cennected with the local press. ' The melancholy event took place at half - Ast five o'clock on Wednesday morning, actor an illness of everal sacks' duration. In the (a-1 er part of his life Mr. Waik , r was connected with tho Liverpool Mercury as its sub-editor, and the duties of that laburious office he execot el with ability and discrimination. On leaving this establishment, he started a literary periodical of his own called the "Lancashire Museum;" and the varied powers and acquirem . ents which he brought to the task, together with his Ekili in enlisting the services of eble"contributors, chtiincd fur the periodical a stand ing and a circulation which were deemed wonder ful in a town then notoriously n-glectrul of all local efforts of a literary character. Almost every num ber of " The Museum" was enlivened with 301112 story, essay, anecdote, or goss i p i n g article written by the facile pen of its editor; arid some of those produc tions e a v n in d ced in g i e m nu a f i 3 n, , notati°n' humour, vigour of treat ment, often surpassed by writers whose names are household words. His poetic taste was not one cf the least remarkable of his lite rary endowments; and though we liked his own poetical efforts less than his prose productions, we must admit that eeveral of them ranged far abuse medio crity. In the course cf his chequered lire Mr. Walker had visited the West Indies end South America, and a fear-ful earthquake, which took pace during his residence in the latter country, formed the subject of his longest, most ambitious, and most successful poem. After the abandonment of his local periodical, AIL Walker was for several years tho editor of a Literal paper in Preston. About a dezt - n years ago returned to Livrrpool, and in the intervening period he had acted as contributor and reporter to several local papers, but more especially to the Liverpool Standard. With politics, however, he rarely intermeddled during the whole of his last term of residence in the town. Mr. Walker had not only a literary but a mechanical . genius, and un d er more favour able circumstances his constructive faculty might have been brought into fuller and more pro fitable play. In naval architecture he W4S an enthusiastic amateur, and he had executed many beauti!ul models . cf differ en t d escr i pt i ons o f vessels. One of Ina favoirrites consisted of a design for a ship with . a double keel, the object of this sin well spoken of . by practical men, he at ono gular construction being to give the vessel greater steadiness in the water. This &sip, which we are told has been ea m a rc e te r d ; on him their chastisement, time thought of patenting. Amongst his fellow workers on the press the deceased was esteemed for his and, though he had his as the too common inheritance of tf k ah i ie n l yidn failings, which ere hr e ei o cg r iai t e r. e dh u ead i d our frail humanity.—Liverpool merevy.

LIVERPOOL, Atm. 23 —At this morning's market thtra was a thin attendauce of town and country dealers, who purchased very sparingly of wheat at the full prices of Tuesday. Flour, both sack and barrel, brought late rates. Oats and oatmeal in limited demand, r without change in value ; the same remark applies to barley, beans, and peas. Indian corn met a good demand at an advance of 61 to 13 per quarter; fine yellow being held firmly at 27s 63 per 480Ibs. NEWBURY, AUG. 22.—The weather during the last two days has been wet, which has quite interrupted har vest operations. The previously few fine days enabled a good deal of wheat to be secured in fine condition, and to-day we have a considerable quantity of new wheat in offer, which, although not so fine in qaality and condition as last year's crop, is better than could be expected from the blighted aspect presented in the field. The weight varies from 60 to 641 b per bushel, but the yield is badly spoken of. The trade to-day has been dull, at about Is per quarter decline from last week. In spring corn but little passing, at unaltered rates. EXETER, AUG. 23.—Pork Carcases—A very small supply, but as it was all of very good quality, prices ranged high, from 8s to 83 9d per score. Cattle Market —The supply has been small to-day, especially of Leasts, caused probably by Crediton fair having been held en Wednesday. Good beef sold at 7s 91 to 8s per more; in some instances 8s 3d to 8s 6d way made fur very good articles. Pannier—Turkeys, 5s 6d to 7s each; geese, 58 to 6s ditto; ducks, 3s 61 to 5s per couple; fowls, 2s 6d to 4s 6d ditto; roasters, 3s 6d to 4s 63 each; butter, 9d to 104 per Ib ; ezgs, 16 to 18 for Is. Corn Exchange— The attendance to-day has ben again small, farmers being still busy harvesting. Prices have rather receded the ruling figure for the best warranted old wheat has been 6s per bushel, although a penny or twopence more has in some cases bean obtained. New wheat has sold at 5s 6d to 5s 9d per bushel. The quotations fur barley must be considered nominal, at 3s to 3s 34 per bushel. Old oat., 23 3d to 2s 5d per bushel; new ditto 2s to 2s Id ditto. The quotations for fine flour are rather wide, ranging from 32s to 35s per sack, although we hare heard of no actual dealings at the latter figure. BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, AUG. 23. The offices have been cleared of ell the el i drawn sugars, and every new parcel that has been brought forward has a'so found a Free, at gradually improving prices. The transac tions of the weak, including foreign, are to a large ex t-nt. The refined market is very lively, and higher rates are again freely raid for all goo3s rvady for deli very. Rum is in fair demand.—Bristol Mercury. BANcoa, Arc. 23.—There was a good attendance at our market to-day. Prim were the tarn favour of THE COPPER COINAGE. At the meeting on Wednesday of the Sheffield town council, Councillor W. S. BRITTAIN moved that an ad iress he presented to Lord John Russell, requesting him to advise her Majesty to order a new issue of copper coinage. He said that the shopkeepers in this town, and he believed in many other towns in the kingdom, were inconvenienced by a great scarcity of copper. Sometimes he was himself obliged to stand still in his business until, his messengers could obtain him a supply of copper, and he found it was so generally in the town. Mr. Brittain went on to say that he based that remark upon information derived amongst trades people whom he had interrogated in High-street, Moorfields, the Park, the Shambles, Glossop-road, Devonshire-street, at the Midland railway station, and upon information received from Bury, in Lanca shire, and Keighly, in Yorkshire. Af er detailing some of the inconveniences with which he had become acquainted, he said that about 23 or 30 years ago there was so much copper coin in circulation in Sheffield that it was a perfect nuisance, and several parties made a living by exchanging it for gold and notes. He ascribed the present scarcity of copper to the great increase of population, and from the with drawal of penny and halfpenny tokens. He had endeavoured to ascertain the age of the copper coin now in circulation, and out of a certain sum that he had looked over he found that only 11 § per cent. had been coined within the last 40 years, to supply , perhaps 50 per cent. of tokens withdrawn from circu lation during a rapid increase of population. Councillor WOODCOCK seconded the motion. Councillor HARVEY said that in his own neigh bourhood, in which there was not much retail trade carried on, he had known people have men out, hour after hour, and day after day, and still be unable to get enough copper to carry on their trade with. Ho attributed the scarcity to the increase of population, and the reduced price of articles of general con sumption. Councillor SOLLY thought Mr. Brittain had made out a very strong cast; but he wished he had in cluded in his memorial a request for an extensive issue of threepenny pieces in lieu of fourpenny pieces. It would hardly be compatible with the existence of fourpenny pieces, he admitted, but it happened that the latter were not very abundant. The TOWN CLERK—There was an issue of three penny pieces last year, and if you send to the Mint you can get any quantity. Councillor SOLLY sail that if that were so, his ob servations would go for nothing. Councillor SELLARS and Alderman SCUOFIELD both said they had been inconvenienced by the want of copper. air. DU NN suggested that the scarcity might he because the old Fenny was worth more than a p enn y t o m e lt. He had ascertained that the circulation of the copp r coinage had decreased suddenly during I the last two years, and within that period the price of copper had risen consiler a bl y .
