" , di U ,1, 24 A K T AND 00MAIER,CIAL INTELLIGENCE, CITY, Two o'CLocx. The Liverpool Cotton Market on Saturday closed very quietly, but prices of all descriptions were fully r aaintained. The sales were estimated at 5,000 ba les. The railway Share Market closed with a rather brisk appearance at previous rates. The accounts from mcot of the principal maufac 111ring towns in the north of England sho w that trade is still restricte:l through the dearness of the r aw material, the advance in the price of which has emused a proportionate rise iu the value of cloth.BYers consequently act with caution, and du rin g le past week, business in Leeds, Manchester, hid Bradford has been less active. For /014 (ii articles there is a fair de mand for ~ 1 01 a and the Continent, but the inq uir y for ' homeuse is rather limited. The lace trade of Nut 'irighain is quiet, but manufacturers are acting Prudently, and do not increase their stock at the Present enhanced term , ; . for silk and cotton. From t he iron districts of Birmingham the accounts are s atisfactory, the demand for America having 1 4roved. _ • The general features of the money market remain ntlaltered, but during the last two or three days the Pressure has slightly relaxed. Both in Lombard treet and at the Bank the inquiry is still suffici entl y utisk to prevent a decline in the current terms of "Iseounr, and although occasional symptoms 'f relief may be experienced, the mercantile Public seem prepared for a continu ance of I the existing minimum. Some, however, are Predicting an advance to 6 per cent., owing to the 415 'orption of gold on Continental account, and the tattle r unfavourable appearaxice of the last bank ;Item , with the probability of its succ essor shows u g no impreveinent. Nearly all the Australian t :l tdreceived duringithelast fortnight hasbeen sen t to 'lance, partly in payment for silver, and partly for t he Bank of France. The 424,0001. brou g ht b y the N orfolk is likely to be exporte d thither, but, if so, "i l5 immediate requirements will perhaps be satin rd, and the next receipts may be d e p osited in the khreadueedle-street vaults. The Australian ad tices report favourably upon the Victoria gold fields, 41 (1sve may calculate upon large and continuous Pe rnittance9. Last week the imports of the th e me t a ls w ere estimated at 1,2 48 ,7 311 ., and 11 ' 3 exports at 781,0591. The advices from New York report continued " e Pression in the Stock Market, and it is stated 4 the stringency of money was affecting trade. The supply of capital had diminished, and the banks * ere limiting their discounts. The last City B re turn showed an increase in the bullion of 986,589 1' 13 ., but a diminution of 4,367,55 1 dole. in the 'ans and discounts. British Steam Fisheries Company agreed to " ° '°d-up at the meeting of this day. The variation in the English Stock Market this kerning has not exceeded 1-16th per cent., and it re mains in almost precisely the same position as on Sa turday. Business is nearly suspended, and Pekes therefore appear heavy ; and, in the event of 4 . f ew sales, a decline would probab l y occur.

CORN EXCHANGE. ...,.. The leading country markets held on Saturday were but moderately supplied with wheat, in which very little was doing, on rather lower terms. Barley sold slowly, but oats, beans, and peas were firm. The flour trade was heavy. The French and American markets come lower for 'both wheat and flour. In the north of Europe, the former article has become rather heavy. Spring corn, however, is firm. Up to our market last week the arrival of English pro duce were only moderate. From abroad we received 13,6; 1 0 quarters of wheat, 20 , 024 of barley, 67,027 of oats, 2,167 of beans, 459 of pea; 7,691 of linseed, 4,534 of rape seed, 229 of mustard-seed, 58 of sundry seeds, and 638 sacks of flour. Fresh up, to-day, we received a full average supply of wheat from Essex, Kent, &c., coastwise and by land car riage. The general condition of the samples was good, and some of them weighed 64 lbs. per bushel. As a portion of last week's unsold supply was in the market, and as the a ttendance of millers was less numerous, the demand for all kinds of English wheat ruled heavy, at a decline in the quotations realised on Monday last of from 3s. to 4s. per qnart er. There was a good show of most kinds of foreign wheat. Although the trade ruled heavy, fine parcels were held at full prices. Inferior kinds were offered on lower terms- The floating cargoes of grain off the coast, the inquiry was rather limited. The show of English barley Wit 3 limited, of foreign, extensive. The trade was heavy, compared with this day se'nuight. is. per quarter. Fine malt sold to a fair extent on former terms. Inferior qualities ruled heavy. The show of foreign oats was very extensive ; neverthe less, the oat trade was tolerably firm at full prices. Both beans and peas were in moderate supply and steady request at about last week's currency. We had a dull trade for flour, and country marks were rather cheaper.

This circumstance, coupled with the prospect of a larger root crop, may induce our graziers to withhold from oar market a portion of their stock for the present. • There was only a moderato show of foreign stock in to day's market. The beasts were mostly in poor condition ; but the sheep, some of which realised 3/ each, were of more than average weight. From our own grazing distrists there was a falling off in the arrival of beasts, and their general quality was very middling. Compared with Monday hot, there was a decided improvement in the trade, and the primest Scots, kc., sold readily at an advance of ,quite 2d per 81bs, the top figure being 4s 10d. Other breeds were tolerably firm at extreme rates. The arrivals from Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northamptonshire were, 2,309 short horns ; from other parts of England, 350 of various breeds ; from Ireland, 500 oxen ; and from Scotland. 27 Scots. There was an unusually small Ripply of sheep in the market for the time of year, and their condition was by no means first rate. The mutton trade was very brisk, at an improvement in the quotations of fully 2d per Blbs. The beat Downs produced quite 5s 6,1 per 81bs, and a good clearance was effected. The lamb season is now over. The few lambs on sale, however, sold at comparatively high rates. We were but scantily supplied with calves, which sold at 2d. per Kb. more money.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE. (This Day. MANSION-HOUSE. BURGLARY IN THE ClTY.—Gao:•ge Sinclair, 17 years of age, and Alfred Smith, 23, were charged before Alder man Sir R. W. Carden, M.P., with breaking into the warehouse of Mr. R. Penning, wholesale boot and shoe manufacturer, 11, Queen-street, and stealing therefrom a quantity of boots and shoes. It appeared from the evidence of William Kempe, a young man in the employ of Mr. Croi<er, printer, occu pying the third floor of the same premises, that Sinclair was an apprentice of Mr. Croker's, and Smith occasion ally worked for him. On Mr. Ceuker'e premises dogs are kept for security, but from their being lc own to the prisoners is probably the cause of their giving no alarm on the prisoners entering the premises. On Saturday night witness doulde locked the front pas sage door; and on Sunday morning, when he went to feed the dogs, he found the door was only single locked. That excited his suspicions, and he requested his friend who was with him to remaine at the door, whilst he went up stairs to see if anything was wrong ; in the passage, near the stairs adjoining Mr. Fenning's ground floor warehouse and over his cellar, he noticed that two boards had been taken up, leeving a space eufficint for a man to enter. He then went back, locked the door, and asked his friend to go up stairs with him. He did so, and as tbey went up stairs witness pushed the water-closet door open, but no one was there ; he then wentto Mr. Croke?' door, which he found had been braken open, and on looking into the cutting elacbine, he saw a quantity of boots and shoes ; his friend heard a noise in the loft over, and witness called out "George, who's there!" having a suspicion that it was the prisoner Sinclair. No answer was returned, and they went down stairs, witness watching the premises whilst his friend went for policeman. Police-constablee 452, 454, and others came, and they all west up stairs. Witness's friend on going up pushed the water-closet door, and finding it would not open, he called their attention to it, when one of the policemen burst the door (pen, and there found the prisoners with a carpet-bag belonging to Smith containing 10 pairs of women's bouts, 4 pairs of children's boots, and 3 pairs of children's shoes. Police-constable 464 deposed that after the prisoners were taken into custody, they were searched, and on Sinclair, besides other things, were found, a key that fitted the carpet-bag, and a number of Lucifer matches ; at Smith's residence, at Kennington, were found, under the bed, 10 pairs of women's boots and also come men's boots and shoes. Police constable 452 deposed that in Mr. Croker's room were found, packed up, 30 pairs of women's boots, 4 of men's ditto, 4 pairs of children's shoes, 5 pairs of children's boots, and 5 pairs of women's dippers. There were also found a bundle of shirts. On searching Smitb, amcngst o her things he found a key of a carpet-bag and a front-door key, which opened and locked easily the pas sage-door of the premises in question. The robbery was effected by entering the cellar from the passage. On a bench near the boots in Mr Croker's room, he found a hammer, pair of pinchers, and a screwdriver. A young man in the employ of Mr. Finning deposed that they had been continually losing goods for the last two years. He identified most of the ariicles pro duced, and valued them at 101. His employers stock was so large, that it was imposeible to detect the loss of so small a quantity. The prisoners, who declined saying anything, were committed for trial. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. DARING STREET ROBBERY, WITEIVIOLENCE.—Thomas Nolan and John Arundel, alias Randall, two notorious thieves, were placed at the bar before Mr. Bingham, charged with stealing a gold watch, value 71., the pro perty of John Murdoch, No. 6, Eccieston-place, Eaton square Pimlico. Mr. Lewis, jun., of Ely•place, appeared for the priso ners. Mr. Robert Bull, landlord of the Harrow Tavern, White Friar-street, Fleet-street, stated that on Saturday night, about half-past ten, he was proceeding down Duke-place, St. Martin's-lane, when his attention was attracted to the prosecutor, who was leaning with his back to the wall, apparently the worse for liquor. He then saw the prisoner Nolan and two other men, one of whom he believed to be the prisoner Arundel, go up to the prosecutor, when Nolen knocked him down. Directly afterwards the prosecutor called ont, " I have lost my watch 1" and " Police 1" The prisoner Nolan then butted the prosecutor with his head, and threw him down again, and while he (prosecutor) was lying on the ground the prisoner passed the watch to one of the other men, who he felt convinced was Arundtl, and they then ran off. Witness rushed for ward and seised hold of Nolan, and with the assistance of another person who subsequently came up detained him till the arrival of a constable ' when he was given into custody. John Murdoch, the prosecutor, deposed that on Saturday night, a little after ten o'clock he was in Duke's-court, with his bands in his pockets, when the prisoner Nolan and two other men came tip is him, and before he was aware of it he was knocked down by Nolan, who took his gold watch from his waistcoat pocket. On feeling his watch going, he laid boll of him and called ont, " You have stolen my watch," and " police." Nolan then " butted " him in the stomach, and doubled him up on the ground. While prosecutor was lying ia this defenceless position, he distinctly saw Nolan hand the watch to one of the other men, who ran off. Prosecutor was slightly in liquor at the time, and could not identify any of the other men. Carnelly, 11 A, was passing down St. Martin's-lane, on Saturday night, when he heard the cries of "police" proceed from Duke's-court. He ran to the spot and found the prisoner Nolan in the hands of the first wit ness and another gentleman, who gave the prisoner into custody on the present charge. Sergeant Crocker, 9 C, proved apprehending the pri soner Arundel on Sunday morning, at his lodgings in Dudley-street. Mr. Bingham remanded the prisoners until Saturday next. WESTMINSTER. .fAN ABOMINABLE NUISANCE; IN A RESPECTABLE NEIGHBOURHOOD. A gentleman waited upon Mr. Paynter this morning, and entreated hie assistance under the following circumstancse. Applicant said he had to impl tre him to abate a hor rible nuisance, and not only did so on his own be half, but for the respectable neighbours by whom he was surrounded. He was the proprietor of 113, Warwick street, Pimlico, and a short time ago let a suite of apartments in his house to a woman of la.fy•like appear ance, who represented herself as an cflicer'w widow Before she had been there mat,y days, he discovered that she was a most violent person, addicted to habits of intoxication, who, while la that state, continual), rushed into the street screaming and shrieking, and col lected hundreds of people, who naturally felt tlat she had sustained some gross illtreatment. Applicant's servant had been so intimidated by her violence, that she was afraid to approach her. • Mr. Paynter —Take a peace summons agair.st. her. The 2d Warwick Militia have received orders to be embodied on the 14th of October. The regiment is complete. CRYSTAL PALACE.—The veteran trumpeter Distin gave a farewell benefit at the Crystal Palace on Saturday, when he was ably assisted by Medarne Clam Novelle), Mr. Charles Braham, the younger Distine, and other favourites—the sax horns certainly telling with greater effect than the vocsliets. The number of visitors was 19,293, of whom 3,198 held season tickets. and therefore were of no benefit to Mr. Distin. Notwithstanding the attendance upon this occasion, we are convinced that Saturday can never be properly made a people's day, and, looking at the excellence of yesterday's programme, we believe, had the benefit been on a Monday, sometbing like double the number of persons would have been pry sent. In truth, though the Saturday half-holidarinay give a little additional time to the City clerks, it cannot affect the majority of the people—the respectable mecha nics, who do not receive their wages until the Saturday evening ; nor the large class of shopkeepers and the r assistaut4, who depend upon the custom of the working classes, and whose returns on the Saturdays in very many instances far exceed those of the whole of the rest of the week. GLASGOW HARBOI7II.—One of the heaviest and most costly works ever undertaken by the Ciyde Trust is now approaching completion—the new addition to the South Quay wall. Tne length of the new wall is nearly one third of a mile, and when it is completed there will be a stretch of quay wall westward from Glaegow-bridge of 2,028 rude, or fully 1i mile of quayage fur vessels on the south side of the harbour. The section of the wall is curvilinear iu front and vertical at back, is in thick ness seven feet at top and 16 feet at bottom, and contains in all about 650,000 cubic feet of masonry and c oicrete, or about 47,000 tons weight. Some of the stones employed in the wall weigh fully three tons, and the only dressing they receive is from the " pick." It is intended to give a depth of 20 feet at low water, so that the largest vessels when laden may lie afloat at all times of the tide, as in the docks of London and Liverpool, and in this respect it forms the most important addition that has yet been made to t he harbour. Its cost is about 50,0001.—50/6:h Press.

Thts morning the street in front of the Thames Police o mrt, and the avenues leading to it, were crowded with an excite:llls multitude who were anxious to catch a glimpse of au Italian seaman named Jose de Rosano, aged 22 years, who it was known would be brought up for examination on a charge of murdering a Greek sailor named George de Matras, last night, in Neptune-street, Ratcl , ff-highway. The most intense excitement prevailed in that neighbourhood and near the Leman-street station-house last night and this morning. Upwards of 4,000 persons were as ernbled in Wellclose-square, near the scene of the murder, and as many more were assembled in Lecsan-street. Inspector Gernon of the II division, and 30 police-constables were patroling, the streets all night to preserve order. At ten o'clock there was a dense mob assembled near the station-house, and among them were several Greeks, who gave utterance to loud vociferatione, and called out "bring out the murderer, we want his life, blood for blond." A cab was brought to the back of the station house, into which the prisoner was hastily pushed, and Inspector Gernon and two police-constables got in after him. As the cab drove away the yells and execrations of the mob were perfectly frightful, and several Greeks attempted to stop the horse and cab, and demanded vengeance. The police drove them away, and the horse and cab proceeded at a furious pace along Leman street, Alie-street, Church lane, Commercial-road, to this court in Arbour-street, Bast Stepney, and was followed a considerable distance by the indignant Greeks. Inspector Gernon ordered the driver to proceed at once into the court-yard, between the court and the station-house, and the gates were im mediately closed upon the multitude, who saluted the murderer with loud execrations. After the disposal of the other night charges, the prisoner was arraigned in :he felon's does, before Mr. Yardley, and charged with the wilful murder of George de Matras. It appeared from the evidence that the prisoner and two prostitutes were quarrelling in Neptune-street last night, and the prisoner struck one of them. The deceased, who was standing by, remonstrated with him, on his cowardice and said, " DJa't strike the girl.' The prisoner said to the deceased " I'll fight you English, Italian, or Greek fashion." Tile deceased replied in broken English, "Me no fight," on which the prisoner took a large sheath knife from his pocket and plunged it into his abdomen. The deceased staggered and the prisoner followed him up, inflicting blow after blow en the defenceless man who fell to the ground mortally wounded. The bystanders called out " Murder, seize the fellow"' and the prisoner was pursued by a police constable named Castles Gascoyne, 98, 11, who took him and soon had him secured in the station house. The wounded man was immediately taken to his lodging-house, No. 200, Ratcliff highway, where he was immediately attended by Mr. Starkey, a surgeon, of Wellclose-square, and Mr. Graves, an army surgeon, of No. 201, Ratcliff-highway. The deceased in reply to a question of Mr. Gernoc, said he knew the murderer, and described him, and said he lived in the same house. Mr. Gernon sent a policeman to the station-house with directions to bring the prisoner immediately to the house where the deceased was bleed ing to death, in order that he might be enabled to iden tify the murderer. Before the policeman could return the wounded man expired. Upon an examination it was ascertained that the deceased had received three wounds in the abdomen, one on the left breast, one on the left armpit, and another on the back of the shoulder. Inspector Gernon produced a large sheath knife of the ordinary description used by sailors. It was found iu the street after the Greek was murdered. The blade of the knife was stained with blood. Mr. Yardley inquized whether there had been any post mortem xlmination of the body. Inspector Gernon replied in the negative. Mr. Yardley said he should remand the prisoner until Monday tit xt. The holy of the deceased is now lying at the lodging house, 200, Ratcliff-high way. It was laid out accord. ing to the Greek custom this morning, and was visited by a great number of Greek sailors. The prisoner is a person of youthful appearance and fresh, complexion, and his appearance is rather prepos sessing. MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. The Spars of Beechwood. A True Tale. By " Scrutator." 3 vols. Hurst and Blsckett. This is an amusing story, and although no very wonderful events occur, the interest is kept up to the last by the ingenious pons.ruc ion of the plot, and the pleasing style in which it is related. The . chief point of the tale is the long engagement that xisted between Henry Howerd and Mary Malt land. The adventures end misadventures that be fell them, the officiousness of meddling stranee re, the injudiciousness of friends, the slanders of enemies,and the fetal interference of family con nectons, all conspired to render the aoquaintauce of these two estimable individuals anything but a happy one. It is sometimes ludicrous, and sometimes irritating to observe how continually both partiea persisted in believing all that was detrimental to the other's character, by whomsoever uttered, even after repeated proofs of the falsity of such asser tions had been met with. Iu this particular the author has well displayed the blindness of jealousy and the inconsistency of pride. Mrs. Selwyn, the mother of Mars, shows to us a perfect model of a : meddling mother, a woman who really loved her child, and yet was mainly instrumental in causing that child's misery, perhaps, by her very folly . weeckiog her peace for life, at the moment when she would willingly have sacrificed her own exis tence to procure some signal blessings for her dar- • liu g. She was ever on the inert waiting and watching. It is no wonder that an excitable nature 1 ke Mary'a should have been driven almost to distraction by such demeanour, and it forms so ne part of her ex cuse for wavering, when it is considered that she was really attached is her mother, and placed re. Hance on her judgment. This is another part of the . harm committed by such persons—the very respect in which they aro held increases their responsibi lity as it adds to their influence. Robert Howard, the cousin of Henry, is:a remarkable contrast to him " in every respect. It would be a satisfaction to the reader, when his various plans fail, if in his ruin he did not contrive to involve h's cousin. In this in stance, Henry Howard showed great want of sense, and indeed of principle ; for a man like him, with a family dependent on his fortunes, had no right to risk the welfare of the innocent to sere en the guilty from the effects of their crimes. This mis called charity never profits the giver nor the recipi ent, and Henry bitterly rued the hour when he ' consented to lend his aid to Roberts ruinous affairs. It is welcome news to hear at last that the path of the upright and generous hero, whose wanderings we had followed from early youth to an advanced. period of maturity, becomes less thorny and rugged and to know that his latter life will be passed un der the shades of Beechwood, from whence he had been driven by the machinations of crafty rogues. Sir William Beaumont is a sketch of a noble minded man, one of whom there are few, but who is yet natural in his description. For ose rightly to: pourtray human nature, it is but fair to intro..: duce ono like Beaumont into a s:ene that has witnessed the entrance of Robert Howard. —to say nothing of his myrmidon Smirke, who eventually provedtoo sharp-witted for his employer. Many of the earlier passages of the story are bril-. lant and gay, from the frequent recurrence of ball, banquet, and diversified entertainments, amid whose sparkling scenes the hero and heroine played their pelts in the exciting drama before referred to. Fur ther on the sunshineof liteis exchanged for its shade, and even for its storms. Through the fitful course ou which our eyes have rested, the attention is fixed by the spirit of the narrator. In a decided manner, and with a genial feeling, he has worked out his purpose, and attainel to his object, to pre sent to our notice the record of the woe, and weal, the light and shade, the good E nd evil, that mingled in the momentuous career of the Squire of Beech weed. The Story of my Girlhood. By Mrs. Lynch. Longman. This is a pleasing domestic story, written with .taste and feeling. The incidents are scarcely pro 7 bable, and decidedly romantic, and the characters are certainly not such as are commonly met with in everyday life ; but the plot is novel, the actors in is interesting, and the principles and sentiments inculcated are pure and elevated. The story, in its chief incident bears some resemblance to " L'illa Rookh." The heroine, Annie Falconer, when very young, is persuaded by her mother, who is in declining health, to enter into a secret mar riage with a youth of her acquaintance, in order to be secure from the possibility of a step mother's dominion. This very rash and Injudicious proceeding does not produce the anticipated result, for, owing to a misunderstanding with his youthful bride, Lynn Forester departs, and is not heard of for years. The mother dies, and her place is filled, as she expected, by another, but that other is one of her daughter's friends, who is of such a good and gentle disposition that the mother's fears are proved groundless. In• the mean time the secret, which is known only to herself, becomes a heavy burden to poor Annie, and is not made made the more agreeable by the appearance of a Mr. Warren, who pays her much attention, and to whom she becomes deeply attached. Great is her distress and perplexity, when all is happily arranged, by the discovery that Mr. Warren is but the assumed name of Lynn Forester who had resolved to win her affections in dis guise. There are several other characters with interest of their own. The chief of these is Ada, the stepmother, whose patience and gentle ness at length meet their reward. Edith Falconer, the sister of Annie, is also the heroine of some romantic episodes ; and some amusing sketches of neighbours and friends fill up the corners of the story very pleasantly. It is apparently an early work, and gives evidence of considerable ability in the department of light and graceful fic tion, deepened by touches of sentiment and pathos.. There is also considerable variety in the delinea tion of the characters. It is a welcome contribu tion to the literature of the day, and the authoress is apparently one who, with care and experience, will be likely' to enrich the field of domestic fiction. History of a Flirt. T. Hodgson, Paternoster Row. The cheap reprint of a novel of this description, which many of our readers may remember as being very popular a few years since, must doubtle-s sell well. 'Maze is a considerable amount of wit and smart dialogue in its pages ; and the heroine, a most incorrigible and distinguished disciple of the school she is intended to represent, goes through a long course of unprincipled folly, to be rather too well rewarded at last ; however, the book is a fair specimen of the modern novel, Vaterton's Essays on Natural History. Long man and Co. The name of Waterton is well known in this department of literature, and the present volume fully sustains the preceding reputation of its author. Mr. Waterton is to 1 of anecdote, and gives a va riety of wonderful stories conne(lte I with animals and their habit. We will not uudertike to say that our belief is as great as his own relative, to some incidents which ha relates, but making due allowance for the strong colouring of enthusiastic zeal, we have perused the book with great pleasure. TO THE EDITOR OF THE BUN. Slll,—Will you kindly permit me, through the medium of your columns, to correct an impression which is gaining ground, that the " Victoria Rifles," or Mid dlesex Volunteer Corps, is simply a club of gentlemen, not sanctioned by Government. Such an impression to a great extent frustrates the exertions of these who are endeavouring to raise the corps to its full compleineut- I therefore wish to state in contradiction, that the Victoria Rifle Corps is enrolled under the direct sanction of her Mkjesty, with the approval also of • Lord Pal merston. The corps is governed by the Volunteer Act, is entire!) , self-supporting, and is, believe, the only volunteer rifle corps, with the exception of the " South Devon," whose officers' names appear in the Army List. Ten of its members have received commissions in various militia regime nts ; o ne was gaz atted direct from its ranks as Paymaster to the German Legion, and two are now fighting in India as officers of her Majesty's 60th Rifles.—l am, Sir, your most obedient servant, FREDK.
