There was an active inquiry for barley, malt, and oats on higher terms. Beans, peas, and flour moved off readily, at extreme currencies. Advises from New York, to the 7th inst., state that flour was in active request, at an advance of 25 cents per barrel. Wheat was from 5 to 10 cents per bushel higher, at which large transactions had taken place. Most of the continental markets have ruled steady. In prices, ze ma• terial change has taken place. Very moderate supplies of English grain were received up to our market last week. The imports amounted to 32,058 qrs of wheat, 9 , 001 barley, 25 , 418 oats, 9,887 tons linseed, 5,000 rapeseed, 2 5 mustard seed, 2,160 tares, 1,908 sundry seeds, 50 sacks and 5,666 barrels of flour. The quantity of wheat received up to our market, to day, coastwise from Essex and Kent, was somewhat on the increase, compared with Monday last • but its general quality was by no means first-rate. By l a nd carriage from th e midland districts, the supply was very moderate. Th e show of samples of both red and. white was by no mea ns large ; nevertheless, the demand for all kin ds was b y no l means so active as on Friday. However, a full average business was transacted, at an advance in the currencies obtained on Monday last, of from 3s to 48 per quarter. For for ward delivery, very high rates were demanded by the growers. With foreign wheat we were fairly supplied ; yet the demand for most kinds ruled firm, at 3s. per quarter above the rates current on this day s e'nnight. About 3,000 quarters changed hands for shipmen t to the conti nent. Fl o ating cargoes from the westward were firm, and sales were effected at a rise of 3 s. per quarter. Very little English barley was brought forward, but the show of foreign was moderately good. The trade was firm, at a rise of ls. per quarter. We were rather scantily supplied with malt, in which a steady business was doing, at extreme rates. There was a good inquiry for both English and foreign oats, at from 6d to is per quarter above last Monday' quotations. The stock of foreign has become much s re- We were steadily supplied with beans, duced. w hi c h moved off freely, at very full prices. The sale for peas was steady, on former term s. Several floating cargoes of Indian corn changed hands for the continent. The flour trade was firm, and American parcels were is per barrel dearer.

The name of the infant Prince is Amurath Eddin. The revolutionary party are watching with anxiety the progress of events in the East, in the hope of profiting by their further complication. It is said that another attempt similar to the recent one at Rome is in course of preparation. The instructions are that any place, even the meanest village, may be chosen for it, provided it be made, and it is left to any one that thinks proper to take the initiative. An accident occurred yesterday (Sunday) morn ing at 5 o'clock on the Paris-Bordeaux Railway, near Poictiers. Five persons have been killed, and several others wounded. The mail train from Paris encountered a merchandize train be tween Poitiers and the station of Liguge. Among the killed are some of the employes of the railroad. The news from the grain markets points to a general rise, but from Lorraine and the Alsace we learn that the prices of grain have experienced a decline. The Aigle steamer, of 400 horse power, was launched at Cherbourg on the 17th inst. So large a number of sailors has been supplied by the last levies, that there are now at Cherbourg more sailors than would be requisite to complete the crews of the vessels which are actually arriving. Orders have been given to stop the levy for the present. The inauguration of the new circus, erected by the troops at the camp of Satory, took place on Sa turday in presence of the Emperor and the Empress. The Hippodrome was ordered down for the occasion. At about half-past three, their Ma jesties arrived, accompanied by Marshal de St. Arnaud, Marshal Vaillant, Colonel Beville, the Princess d'Ess]ing, and two ladies of honour. Their Majesties were received with loud shouts of applause, the whole of the soldiers standing up when they appeared. Prince Napoleon was seated at the left of the Emperor. The performances were then resumed, and concluded at half-past four, with the representation of the Field of the Cloth of Gold. Their Majesties, on withdrawing, were again greeted with loud acclamations from the troops, who thronged round the Imperial car riage as their Majesties entered it to return to St. Cloud. CITY, TWO O'CLOCK. tLiverpool, on Saturday, the cotton market ele l s e t d heavily, but without material variation in Prices. The sales were estimated at 4,000 bales, of Which 1,000 were taken for exportation. Per 12ara and Maranhani sold at 6-4-d. to 80 ; Bahia, ; and Surat 3g-d. to 41 1 c1 per lb. There was an unproved market for railway shares, and the mar- Ica closed firmly The grain market is very stiff, and rather higher than last Friday. The exports of tallow from St. Petersburgh to wie 10th inst. were 54,421 casks against 23, 624 casks at th e corres p o nding date of 1852. ,-Bullion to some amount is on the eve of arriving The steamer Thames due last, will have 4,00 0,000 dollars on board in silver, at present so b ungs wanted. •The Orinio3o from the West Indies 205,0001., and a ship - of - war from the pacific,, will soon be here with the same amount. Pe Arabia from New York has 200,000 dollars on ward. The letters from Calcutta delivered this morn ing state that more business was doing in imports, although prices had not improved. Money was a bundant. The markets in China appear to have been de- Pressed, and money was scarce. The accounts by the Arabia from New York re cord a buoyant market for stocks at the latest date With a good deal of speculative dealing. Money :a8 rather tighter. The shipments of breadstuffs to London, Liverpool, and the Continent were un- Usually large. There was a steady exportation of ec tten. The imports into New York in the week e nding 2d Sept., were valued at 4,976,823 dollars. The cotton market was in a good condition. New shipping returns have been published in York of a highly interesting character. Dur ing the month of August the total number of ves sels arrived in the port was 410, representing a t onnage of 160,040 tons, of which 31,068 tons be longed to British vessels. The number of persons arrived daring the same period was 33,731, of Which 18,624 were British, 8,847 German, and '',879 French. The exports of specie from Boston during the month of August amounted to 246,775 dollars, in culding 238,765 in gold, and 8,010 in silver. The 'Ports were 13,926 dollars, viz., 2,600 in gold and the rest in silver. wing weather in Jamaica was improving , there " 41 'ing been occasional showers and cooler tempe rature. The plants had a healthy appearance, but s hort returns were expected owing to the late drought. There were feu er deaths from fever in kntigua, though many were attacked. The Por tuguese labourers to the windward of the island ' B4 greatly suffered. The shipping had almost entirely escaped the epidemic. Agricultural la bourers were much wanted. There had been an a rrival from Madeira of a vessel with 125 emigrants nu board. If not absorbed in Antigua, the sur plus would be conveyed to Jamaica. Respecting the consumption of rum in d oes, it it is estimated the quantity made and used. 114 amounted to 6,500 puncheons or 7 70 , 000 gal lons. The sugar crop would, it was thought, be ralleh less than that of 1852. The season was late, au d the work on many estates backward. The scar city of manual labour was severely felt. The quantity of sugar shipped to the sth August, Was 3,691 hhds., 799 tierces, and 1,253 barrels. The English Stock Market opened well, but has not been very brisk.

The Land Companies' shares have improved and the Gold Mines are firm. - - The Ambassador from the King of Denmark has arrived in the Austrian capital, on a mission con nected with the demand made by Austria for the expense of occupation in Holstein. The Duke of Cambridge is expected at Olmutz. A letterfrom Vienna, 13th, says :—" The Emperor will leave to-morrow, with the Archduke Charles Louis, for the camp of Olmutz. The Emperor of Russia, who will arrive there on the 21st, will re main until the 25th, and on the 26th will leave for Warsaw. He will be accompanied as far as the frontiers by the Emperor of Austria.

A decree of the Ist of September, inserted in the Bulletin des Lois, takes off the sequestration placed on the Bordeaux to Teste railway. F. de Persigny, Minister of the Interior, has addressed a circular to the Prefects, stating that the reports made to the Government respecting the political journals are not satisfactory. It then proceeds—" This omission must be repaired. It is, in fact, necessary for the Government to have complete information as to the state of the French press, and non-political periodical writings are en titled to share in its solicitations. The Govern ment, as far as regards the press, has for its mis sion not only to watch over the execution of the laws and regulations which govern the matter, but also to study the legitimate wants of journalism and its material and moral interests, and to con tribute thus to the work of reparation pursued by the Government of the Emperor. I therefore re quest you Monsieur le Prefect, to send a complete report on the press of your department, including not only the political journals, but all the pe riodical publications, whatever may be their spe ciality, either literary, scientific, advertising, &c." On Saturday the Three per Cents. opened at 76f. 90c., rose to 77f. 15c., and fell again to 76f. 90c., at which they closed for the end of the month.

The Russian despatch, containing the rejection •f the modifications proposed by the Porte, arrived at Vienna on the 14th, and persons who derive their information from Russian sources say that the St. Peter sburgh cabinet has also addressed a kind of explanatory Note or Manifesto to the four great PowErs. The Manifesto, or whatever the document is called, is probably short and concise, as the sense of it was communicated to me in a few words. In order to prove his sincere de sire to maintain peace, the Emperor of Russia al though justly incensed against the Porte, readily consented to accept the mediation of Austria, his friend and ally. In order to bring the differ ence to a more speedy settlement, conferences were held is Vienna, and the draft of a Note was pen ned wi►ich the four Powers were inclined to believe would prove acceptable to both parties. The Rus sian Cabinet, fully confiding in the justice and honour of the mediating Power, promised to raise no di faculties if the Porte unconditionally ac cepte l the Note. The Turkish Government has not thought fit to do so, and therefore Russia is necessitated to retain the Danubian Principalities as a pledge. It is said, that even now the Emperor is willing to evacuate the Principalities if the Porte will consent to the original Note " pure and simple," but this no Turkish Cabinet would dare to do if so inclined. Private letters from Constantinople of the sth inst. speak of the excitement which continues to prevail among all classes of the Turkish population in that capital, and the placards posted up in vari ous parts, of the most irritating and incendiary kind, tending to rouse the fiercest passions of the popu lace. Several persons, on whom suspicion alighted as the authors of these dangerous documents, were arrested, but, for want of sufficient proof to trace the fact home to them, were subsequently liberated. In these placards the Ministers are accused of cowardice or of treachery, and the allies of the Porte, but particularly England and France, are held up to the reprobation of the nation ,and " war to the death " is demanded. Redschid Pasha is reported to have declared that if Russia will not acept the note modified by the Porte and by the four Ambassadors at Constantinople, war will surely be the consequence. The opinion at Constantinople was that, if war break out, hostili ties would first take place in Anatolia, or Batoun, near the Caucasus. Important dispatches arrived at Vienna on Satur day the 10th from St. Petersburk, brought by Colonel Sziwitsch to M. de Meyendorff, and also from Constantinople. The English minister also received dispatches from Lord Stratford de Red cliffe, and yesterday had a long conference with the French envoy. It is said the Sultan will not accept the Vienna note without the modifications, or something tan tamount to the modifications. Private letters from Vienna, of the 12th, state that the members of the Conference had assembled, that the best understanding subsisted between them, and that a fresh note had been prepared by them, which was couched in the most conciliatory language, and is calculated to be accepted by the contending r arties. From Bucharest, Sept. 2, we have a confirma tion of the news of the march upon Bucharest of the third corps of the Russian army, under the command of General Osten-Sacken. 4,000 Russian troops are on the road from Focktchany to Jassy. From Servia the last dates are, Belgrade Sept. 4, and Semlin, Sept. 9. Redschid Pasha insisted on having a decision from the Servian Charge d'Affaires as to the position Servia is prepared to take in case of war. The Servian Charge d'Affaires replied that the Servians could not fight against the Russians, as members of the same religion, but that the Servian Government would promise to ab stain from hostile movements against the Ottoman Porte. The Turks are actively arming on the Servian frontier. A number of cavalry posts have been established on the Turkish bank of the river from Silestria to Jestow. Gunboats, too, have been stationed on various points. 1t is said that the Sultan has called on the Ser vian government to pay their tribute for ten years, and that he has addressed letters to the Hospodars of Moldavia and Wallachia, authorising both to remain in their Principalities, on condition of their continuing their relations with the Porte, and pay- BRITISH FUNDS THIS DAY AT ONE O'CLOCK ( From the Official List.)

This little town is all astir, on Saturday, and had been so for several days past, with the news that the Channel squadron, under the comma nd of Admiral Martin and Admiral Corry, were about to taY it a visit, and to remain for some days i n the arbour widely celebrated under the now almost Obsolete name of the " Cove of Cork." They were e xpected there in the course of that day. By way Of preparation for their arrival, Mr. Verling,th e harbour -master, was engaged in the course of Thursday and Friday in removing all the merchant N 'essels and fishing craft—both of which classes are ve ry numerous here—from the man-of-war anchor aFe under Caroline Point, and they now lie close a longside Queenstown, and in the direction of 1 1 " .

The arrivals of home-fed beasts fresh up this morning were seasonably large as to number. The condition of most kinds was, however, by no means first rate, hence the primest kinds were in steady request, at fully last Mon day's prices ; indeed, in some instances, the best Scots were worth 4s 6d per 81bs. Short horns, Devons, runts, &c., were in fair request, at full quotations. From the northern grazing districts, we received 2,200 short horns ; from other parts of England,. 500 of various kinds ; and from Scotland 140 horned and polled Scots. With sheep we were tolerably well, but not to say hea vily, supplied, the time of y aratear considered, Prime old Downs, from their comparative scarcity moved off steadily, at full quotations ; but all other breeds meet a dull inquiry, at a decline in the I currencies obtained on this day se'nnight of 2d per 81bs.

SHOCKING ACCIDENT. —On Saturday a frightful oc currence took place at the candle manufactory of Mr. Fontaine, in East-street, Hoxton. It appears t h at Saturday was the prin ci p al melting day at Mr. Fontaine's factory, and James Davis was employed at the melting copper, where above five hundred wei g ht o f fat was ' being reduced to a fluid state. In the course of the operation Davis had occasion to reach over the boiler for one of his implements, and stood on the edge of the copper, which being grelsy he missed . his footi ng , an d fell into the boiling liq uid, in which he was totally submerged. His fellow-workmen, hearing his cries, hastened to his assistance and extricated him, and on removing his clothes a portion of his fl es h ad h ere d t o them. He was then taken in a cab to St. Bartholomew's Hospital, where he was instantly admitted under the care of Mr. Archer, resident surgeon, an d conveye d to Rahere's Ware. On inquiry yesterday afternoon it was ascertained that no hopes were entertained of his recovery. INDIA RUBBER THREAD.—A parcel of thread, made of Indian rubber, and possessing remarkable elasticity and power of elongations, has recently been brought to this country from France. In the present tariff, com prising the new duties of the last session of Parliament, manufactures: of caoutchouc are specially mentioned, and charged with the duty of 4d. per lb. weight, and this India rubber thread being considered to fall within the meaning of that rate of duty, it has been decided to be liable to 4d. per lb. on importation into this country, and directed to be charged accordingly. 10 20 20 20 PREFERENCE SHARES.

The Piedmontese Gazette states that the troops executed all the evolutions with the greatest precision. A letter from Milan, in the Corriere Mercantile of Genoa, states that the rigours of the state of siege continue unabated, notwithstanding the late pro clamation purporting to mitiLate it. The Messaggere of Modena publishes a decree of the Minister of Finance of the duchy, prohibiting the exportation of corn, and admitting wheat, maize, and oats free of duty until further orders. Never theless, the trade in corn and flour is free as before with those states that belong to the Austrian Cus toms Union. SPAIN. M. Calderon de la Barca, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, was expected in the capital on the 16th or 17th. The new Minister of Marine, was not to be nominated until after his arrival. The Queen, says a Madrid letter, was in perfect accord with her Ministers, and had shown them marks of favour. THE NORTHERN MEETINGS. These meetings were held at Inverness on Thursday and Friday. They consist of an annual assemblage of the nobility and gentry resident in the Highlands of Scot land at this season of the year, and, while they afford opportunity for fashionable reunions, they have chiefly in view the encouragement of Highland sports and ath letic games. The great gathering came off in the Academy Park. A. portion of the lawn was railed in for the competitors, and a grand stand was erected for the nobility and their friends. Formerly the public were admitted free of charge, but this year is. bad to be paid for admission, the effect of which was to limit the number of spectators greatly, and thus to divest the games of the popular in terest which used to attach to them. The attendance of the aristocracy, however, was very large, and among those present were Lord Lovat, Lord- Lieutenant of the county, and Lady Lovat, the Earl and Countess of Hardwicke, Earl and Countess Talbot, the Earl of Annesley, Viscountess Dupplin, Viscount Hamilton, Lord Claud Hamilton, Viscount Chelsea, the Countess of Waldegrave, Sir John and Lady Harrington, Lady Elizabeth Yorke, Sir Thomas and Lady Louisa Moncrieff, Lady J. Parry, Sir Kenneth Mackenzie, Lady Grey Egerton, Major Leith Genkendie, Sir Henry Meux, &c., with family parties. The amusements of the day commenced with some of the simple games, and then there was a keen competition for the prizes offered for the best playing on the bagpipes. Nine competitors entered for the trial of the pibroch music, and in the opi nion of the most competent judges displayed the highest proficiency in this department of bagpipe music. The first prize, a splendid set of bagpipes, was gained by William Ross, a piper of the 42d Regiment; the second, a valuable silver brooch, by Angus M'Millan, piper to Cluny ; and the third, a Highland snuff-mull, by Kenneth M'Millan. The same candidates were successful in the strathspeys and marches. The games consisted of the usual routine of " putting" the stone, throwing the hammer, and tossing the caber. The heavy hammer of 161 b was thrown 93 feet by John Tait, from Ayrshire, who thus gained the first prize ; and the light hammer of 121 b., was thrown 106 feet, by Donald Fraser, game keeper, of Killin. John Tait at the first throw sent the putting stone of 211 lb. 37 feet, on seeing which the other competitors at once withdrew. It was rather a mortification to the stalwart Highlanders to be thus dis tanced by a firm knit and well• built, but nowise formi dable-looking Saxon, and this, we believe, is the first time that the first prizes have gone so far south. The sports of Friday were of a more lively character and went off with much éclat. They consisted of dances, lighter games, and were characterised by great spirit. In the evening there was a grand ball in the Assembly Rooms, which wa3 brilliantly attended and kept up to a late hour in the morning. T.HE BRAEMAR GATHERING. The annual gathering of the Highland clans for the practice of athletic sports and games was held at Braemar on Thursday, and was honoured by the presence of the Queen and Royal family. The preparations for the oc casion were of a more than ordinary character, and the weather being unusually fine an immense number of people were congregated from every part of the county. On Wednesday evening Sir Charles Forbes marched to Corriemulzie at the head of 120 men of the Forbes clan, all elegantly dressed in the Forbes tartan and richly accoutred. They pitched t heir tents in military style, and on Thursday morning resumed their march for Braemar, where they were joined, first, by 80 of Mr. Farquharson's men, commanded by that chief and two of his sons, who presented a fine appearance, and then by the Duff Highlanders, commanded by Mr. Duff, M. P. for Banffshire, and proceeded to the Castle grounds with music and banners. A large space in front of the Castle was set apart for the games, the Highlanders forming three sides of a square, and the populace standing in the rear. On the green embankment by which the Castle is surrounded a carpeting of the Farquharson tartan was laid, and ele gant sofas were placed for the Royal family, while seats were reserved immediately behind them for a distin guished circle of visitors, among whom were Mr. and Mrs. Farquharson, of Invercauld, and family, Miss Farquharson, Colonel Dundas, the Hon. C. C. Caven dish, Miss Dalrymple and Miss Ross (from Invercauld), Mr. and Lady Agnes Duff, Mr. George Duff, M.P., Viscount and Viscountess Campden, Lady Alice Hay, Sir Maxwell and Lady Wallace, the Hon. Mrs. Hope Johnstone, Sir James Carnegie, with a party from Cor riemulzie, and the Marquis of Abercorn, Lord Stanley of Alderley, the Hon. Charles Hardinge, Mr. William Wills, M.P., Mr. Charles Leslie, M.P., Sir Edward Landseer, with a party from Mar Lodge. The games commenced about one o'clock, but when the Queen and Court were announced they were sus pended, and the Royal cortege was greeted with a truly Highland welcome. The Queen and Prince A lbert wer e accompanied by the Prince of Wales, Prince Alfred, the Princess Royal, the Princess Alice, and Princess Helena and suite, the Earl Granville being the Minister in at tendance. There were present also, from Balmoral, the Lady Augustus Bruce, the Hon. Mrs. Colonel Gordon, Lady Cooper, the Hon. Miss Bulteel, Dr. Becker, Dr. Robertson, and Mr. Carl Hoag. The Queen was received by Mr. Farquharson and Mr. Duff, and walked to the Royal dais with Prince Albert, where her Majesty conversed freely with Mrs. Farquhar son, Lady Agnes Duff, and others of the distinguished circle around her. The games were then resumed, and continued with much spirit for nearly two hours ; they consisted of the usual practice of putting the stone, throwing the ham mer, and tossing the caber, the dull monotony of these exercises being relieved by a variety of Highland dances and excellent music, the whole concluding with a foot i race, n which the competitors all distinguished them selves for agility of limb and strength of lung. The heavy hammer of 161 b. was thrown 74 feet by John Wlntosh, of Braemar, who gained the first prize • a stone of 281 b. was thrown 25 feet 7 i nc h es by Charles M'Hardy, of Woodhill, who also gained a medal for throwing a hammer of 161 b. a distance of 81 feet 7 inches. An in elegant luncheon was provided by M r . Farquhar son,the Castle, for the more select v i s it ors ; and the festivities of the day were closed by a ball in the even ing, at which the nobility and gentry mingled freely with the humblest of the peasantry of Mar.

OF THE DONCASTER MEETING. The sporting and pecuniary success of the Doncaster Meetirg are unequivocally indicated by the satisfactory character of the racing and the return of the Grand Stand receipts. Indeed, the supply of sport was unex pectedly ample, and the betting in every instance un usually brisk. The " fielders" were particularly fortu nate in their investments, and on this occasion the victory of the leading favourite for the St. Leger Was perhaps more profitable to the majority of them than would have been the success of The Reiver, Sitting bourne, Cineas, or Rataplan. The "Leviathan Book maker" was a winner of 5,000/. by the result of the race, and by the end of the week I am informed that his balance sheet showed double that amount in his favour. The losers are principally confined to the "gentlemen." Friday's proceedings were marked by certain ques tionable ‘` doings," which excited much just indignation, and the chief actors in them are not likely to escape easily from the odium and contempt which they have incurred. The pernicious practice of "post scratching" was seldom carried out with a more daring disregard of public opinion and honourable principles than on Friday last. Rataplan, The Reiver, and Goorkah were respec tively backed for the Doncaster Cup, and, after a large amount of money had been invested on them, they were successively declared not to start. Goorkah was not scratched until 1.45 p.m., within an hour and-a-half only of the time appointed for the decision of the race ! The conduct of his owner admits of no extenuation, and in all sporting circles it is freely and justly canvassed in no measured terms of censure and indignation. The racing at Doncaster confirmed in a striking man ner the opinions which were stated in The ,Sun respect ing its probable result. For the St. Leger and the Cup, I selected the absolute winners ; for the Great Yorkshire Handicap my selections were second and third ; and for the minor events I was equallyfortunate in my "guesses at truth." The racing fixtures for the current week are remark ably numerous, but interest attaches only to the Man chester Meeting, which will take place on Thursday and Friday. On Wednesday I will enter into a discussion of its programme of sport. September 19. A FRESH MAN. PROGRESS OF THE CHOLERA. NEWCASTLE.—Deaths on the 16th—Cholera, 101 ; diarrhoea. 4. No returns from Gateshead. Great efforts are making by the medical authorities, and it is gratifying to find that the mortality has made no material progress in the last twenty-four hours. A house of refuge has been opened, and bedsteads supplied from the barracks, by authority from the Board of Ord nance. Dr. Sutherland has received directions to pro ceed under the Provincial Interments Act of last session to close the most over-crowded burial-grounds. At Hexham, the epidemic has as yet made little way ; only 6 deaths are recorded, though diarrhceal tendency is general. The authorities are very active, and great good effect must be attributed to their timely efforts in the way both of medical visitation, cleansing, and washing. SHIELDS.—Except the fatal case on board the Expert, of Peterhead, at the South Stanhope and Tyne drops, on Tuesday, the medical officers have no information of any other person being attacked with cholera on ship board, or on the south side of the water. A female of the name of Hall died after a few hours' illness, in Ste phenson-street, North Shields, on Thursday morning. It is stated that she died of cholera, but we have no medical authority for saying so. The board of guardians of South Shields have organised the medical staff. The poor law guardians at North Shields, and the public health committee, are taking every step to purify the town, and to prevent the extension of diarrhoea. Fifty notices have been served by the police in South Shields for the removal of nuisances. DARLINGTON.—The local board of health is on the alert, owing to the cholera having made its appearance in Newcastle, and are taking effective measures to clear away nuisances. LEEDS.—The mayor of Leeds, with his wonted vigi lance, has issued a circular, recommending the prompt reassembling of the district sanitary committees which were appointed in Leeds in September last, for the pur pose of making a house-to-house visitation of the dif ferent wards of the borough, recommending and assist ing the inhabitants to adopt all sanitary measures, and ordering the removal of all nuisances. The mayor urges that the committees shall at once proceed to fulfil the purposes of their appointment, and shall report to him the progress they make. He wisely intimates that early precautionary measures, taken whilst the enemy is yet at a distance, combine the greatest degree of efficiency with the least degree of alarm. The Nuisance Com mittee of the town council have already taken vigorous measures for the removal of all accumulations of filth, and that the Ward Committees also are in movement. MANCHESTER.—The first case of Asiatic cholera in Manchester was reported to the board of guardians on Friday night, by Mr. Walker Golland, medical officer to the Market-street district. The case which was, hap pily, not a fatal one, was that of a woman named Mary Heald, an out-door pauper, living in a confined alley leading out of Back Thomas-street. She was in the cold stage of the disease, when visited by Mr. Golland, quite pulseless, and in a state of collapse, but he suc ceeded in giving relief in four hours, though 24 hours elapsed before she rallied sufficiently for the symptoms to be considered decidedly favourable. She is now quite recovered. There had been several bad cases of diar rhoea among the families living in the same entry. DUBLIN.—The extension of cholera in the north of England has led to the adoption of precautionary measures at Dublin. At a meeting of the Privy Coun cil, held at the Castle, on Saturday, an order in Council was passed, in anticipation of the approach of cholera, for bringing the Nuisance Removal Act of 1848 into operation throughout the whole of Ireland for the next six months. No general board of health will be ap pointed, the Poor-law Commissioners being constituted by the Medical Charities Act the authority who are to take the necessary precautionary measures for the pre vention of the epidemic. THE ACT FOR THE PREVENTION OF CONTA GIOUS AND EPIDEMIC DISEASES. The Act of Parliament under which the Order in Council respecting the cholera was issued, passed on the 4th of September, 1848. It is entitled, "An Act to renew and amend an Act of the 10th year of her present Majesty, for the more speedy Removal of certain Nuisances, and the Prevention of Contagious and Epi demic Diseases." The first part of the statute has reference to the removal of certain nuisances, and the second empowers the Privy Council to issue orders for putting in force the provisions relative to contagious and epidemic diseases. The order having issued for Great Britain for the next six months, the General Board of Health, by the 10th section, is empowered to issue directions for the prevention, as far as possible, or mitigation of the disease. The Board may provide for the frequent and effectual cleansing of streets and public ways ; for the ventilating and disinfecting of dwellings ; for the removal of nuisances, and the speedy interment of the dead, and generally for preventing or mitigating such epidemic, in such manner as to the Board may seem expedient. Medicines may be dis pensed, and medical aid provide 1. A medical member of the Board of Health, during the operation of the order, can be added. The Poor Law Board is to carry out the regulations, and to compel the Guardians of the Poor to do so. Houses can be inspected during the day time, and anything injurious to health removed. The expenses are to be paid out of the poor's rabe. There are various provisions to enforce the act, and penalties are to be levied and recovered for obstructing its execution. All orders and regulations are to be laid before Parliament, and Gazetted. It is expected that the General Board of Health will forthwith issue direc tions and regulations, which will appear in the London Gazette, and immediately be acted upon by the Poor Law authorities—they will have application, by the order of the Privy Council for Great Britain, and may be altered or revoked according to circumstances. ADMIRALTY VISIT TO PEMBROICE.—Sir Jas. Graham and the other Lords of the Admiralty intend paying an official visit to Pembroke dockyard, in the course of the present month. A MAN STABBED BY AN ITALIAN. —Yesterday (Sun day) morning the policemen of the E and F division had their attention directed to to a brawl and cries of murder proceeding from Middle-row, Holborn, and, on going to the spot found a man, William Buckley, a bricklayer, aged 21 years, who resides at 28, Sharp's-alley, Cow cross, Smithfield, lying on the pavement in a pool of blood, which was streaming from his bead, the wound having been inflicted with a stiletto knife by an Italian named Ekniara Antonio, aged 25 years, barometer and looking-glass maker, residing in Hatton-garden, who, on the alarm being raised, ran down Southampton buildings, Holborn, for the purpose of making his escape through Staple's-inn, the gates of which were fortunately locked. He then endeavoured to get over the iron rail ing of No. 28, Southampton-buildings, which is let out as chambers to barristers, in doing which he fell through the window, cutting himself in a dangerous manner, and the iron spike penetrated his thigh. A desperate en counter ensued with the policemen, but other constables came up, and, by their united exertions, he was eapture.d and taken to King's College Hospital. Buckley was, in the meantime, taken to t he same hospital, where every assistance was rendered by Mr. George Lawson t andwas Mr.- J. W. Hulke, the medic al resident officers. las certained that the stiletto had entered rel the forehead, ex tending over to the right ca r, which was seve. There are, besides, stabs in the a rms and thighs, Which were found to be of a frightfu l description. Th e origin of the affair cannot at present be ascertained. C OMP LAINTS OF ENGINE DRIVE its.On Saturdayof the last a deputation of engin e drivers in the employ London and North-Western Railway Company attended at the terminus, Euston Grove, for t purpose of obtaining an inter view with the chief of . the locomotive department, Mr. 31:Connell, f wh i and the directors, in r e. f eren ce to certain grievances o ch they consider they have to complain. It is stated that another attempt has recen tly been ma de in the locomotive department to re duce the wags tohfe theengine drivers and firemen, at the same time amount of labour imposed upon the t g ha es t. men has been i ncreased. The more prominent ground i of complaint s, that steps are being taken to remove the old hands one by one, and the introduction of new, and, as the old servants allege, wholly incompetent engine drivers. They do not contemplate a turn out. They contend that they are overworked, and that a contem plated reduction in their pay is an injustice, and they desire an explanation as to the causes which are ope rating to induce the locomotive head to be c ontinually discharging the old hands. The deputation waited for some considerable time in the hope of obtaining an in terview, but it was found imp ossible to receive them on account of the pressure of other business, 324 4 24 A S
