Letters from Liverpool mention that the Cotton Market yesterday closed with An upward tendency, at extreme rates. The sates amounted to 12,000 bales. The Railway Share Market closed quietly, at previous prices. In the Colonial Produce Markets business con tinues quiet, and the public sales advertised for t'he present week are rather limited. For Sugar the inquiry is not very brisk, but the supplies aro Small, anti refined sorts realise former values. Up to the present time the imports this year have been 12,000 tons less than 1856. Coffee is steady. Tea remains at full rates, and rice is quiet. Tallow is fiat, and Y.C. is 623. per cwt. on the spot. Messrs. Smith and Charles's circular, dated last evening, states as follows : 7 -- The tallow market has been quiet to-day, several par cels having been pressed for sale for cash down to- Morrow. The market gave way nearly Is. per cwt. in this position, and business at 61s. 61. for more distant Periods ; the market was steady without much doing. e advicea from St. Petersburg by telegraph to Satur day quote 182 rs., September, 183 to 184 ; spot, ex change, 371.

It is not expected that the remittances by the Ripon on the 20th, will p ro ve very large, especially as the Ilembay exchange is reported lower. The Calcutta, advioes ara very meagre, but the quotation in that city has no doubt also receded. Silver continues dull, but small supplies are still arriving from the conti nent. Yesterday the Clarence brought nearly 60,0001. from Antwerp, and the Seine nearly 20,0001. from Boulogne. It is stated, in advices from Turkey, that th 3 projected Government Loan would probably Le undertaken by the Credit Mobilier of Vienna, but as that Company's regulations prohibit participation in Foreign schemes, the sanction of the Austrian Government would be first required. There can be 4 0 doubt that the Sultan is in a very embarassed. Position, and for some time past he has been corn- Pelted to raise means in small amounts and at Usurious rates of interest, to supply the most press ing wants of the State. Finding no encourage- Inept in the French or English money markets, the attempt will no doubt be made in any quarter Where there is the least chance of success. The general meeting of the North of Europe .. ii iteam Navigation Company has been held to-day -wit C. Morrison, the - chairman of the new board, Presiding. He regretted the time the new board had been in existence had been so short that they could not give shareholders any opinion as to the future. The total loss was 187,167 1 . The direc tors hoped to sell as many ships as would produce 0000/., so as to adopt whatever course might be found expedient. He regretted that many idle reports a had been circulated about their vessels, "hich only tended to hinder the sale of them, and prejudice the favourable winding-up of their affairs. The chairman concluded by moving the adoption of the report, which, from all appearance, was likely be carried. The demand for discounts is rather less pressing, but no relaxation in the terms can yet be reported. 44 a few instances, where the paper offered fur ne gotiation is of a very superior quality, a concession or even per cent. may be made, but the full rate Wgenerally maintained. The English Stock Market is still in a very apathetic state, and the advices from India have f ailed to create any decided influence. An unfa vourable tendency, however, is visible, and the de pression of the stock markets of New York and Paris would almost appear to have, some .sympa , thetic effect. The accounts from the East are con sidered very unsatisfactory by many of the opera }ors, but bUsiness is exceedingly dull, and the daily transactions are unimportant. Consols for raoney were 901 t, and for account 90a I. 'chequer Bills are 7s. to 3s. discount, and the email ditto 2s. discount. Scarcely half a dozen bargains are recorded in t t}lo Foreign market. Turkish 6 per Cent s . have • 15 c9n flat at about 95 to . 951, and for the next ace. %nut 051 A. Spanish Deferred were 251, and Por_ tuguese 3 per Cents. 45k.

The Railway Share Market this morning has been rather active, but the business has been for the bbost part in connection with the settlement of the account., and prices have shown a downward' tendency. Great Western, Midland, Scottish North-Ea'stein, and South-Eastern were ss. lower ; Caledonian, Brighton, North-Western, and Nor folk, lOs. ; and Great Northern, 1/.

The grouse, a native of an-I Peculiar to the British Isles, receding before the progress of agricultural improvement, are now only to be found lu anything like their former numbers in remote dio triets, where access and accommodation for snoitancu are rcstrictzd or wanting. The sportsman, without as signing any limit-to his work of destruction, commences operations on the 12th, and generally kills most of the Yutinl birds, and leaves the old ones to die in the ap proach of wint, - r, generally iron a disease of the liver. Large quantities of old birds are found dead °o our southern hills (we refer to Selkiri , and- Peehlesshlre) in the months of Oct. and Nov. Many of these, doubtless, have been wounded birds, .and conse quently have died of starvation ; but we have frequently made an examination of some of these found dead, and an enlargement of the liver was almo , t invariably tha cause. Agricultural improvements, such as the drainirg of hill land for pasture and the burning of heather, are all hastening the already rapid decrease of muir fowl. If sportsmen woul I give this species of game a rest once in "ery four seasone, and thus allow [luxe young birds to breed, we doubt not but that the species would become 7. 44 numerous as they were 10 or 12 years ago, —.Mhz.

IE SHARES. This afternoon the half-yearly general meeting of the bharehol lers in this company was held at the London Tavern, Bishopsgate-street, for transacting the ordinary business of the company ; after that it was made special, for the purpose of reducing the number of the board of directors to seven, and the number of . directors neces sary to form a quorum to three. Mr, C. Morrison, Chairman or the Board of Directors, ,n the chair. The report and statement of accounts showing a loss upon the half-year, of 38,529/. ss. 61, and a total loss on the balance-sheet of 187,167/. LT. 3d., the particulars of which have already been published in The Sun, were taken as read. The CHAIRMAN expressed his sorrow at a second time having to appear before them to give a bad account of their funds, for the spending of which the present board was not answerable. The hen gentleman then referred to the items of expenditure and the profit and loss ac counts, fully stated in the report, and said, in reference to the liabilities of the- Company, that the new directors bad had claims made 'on them which the com mittee of co-operation bad not the slightest idea or sus picion of their existence. So . far as the directors could now see the loss of capital was 179,006/. 3s. 51, and it was impossible for the directors to give an opinion whe ther cr not the company could bepermanently continued. It was impossible forthe directors to state the exact loss because it would be impolitic for them to put any value on the ships, A low value would be injurious to the company, because it would on becoming known be the maximum sum any one would give for them, and were the directors to put a high value on them and did not get it, if they sold them they would be mi4cadieg the shareholders. The directors thought the best plan was to write off a depreciation of 5 per cent. per annum from their value. In speaking of the future he reminded the shareholders that the directors had only been in office three months, during which time they had made great retrenchments, and during that time -the actual result had been a profit, which must be consolatory to the shareholders to know that no more of the money had been lost during that time. It should, however, be biome in mind that the period in which the profit had been made was the best part of the year. The directors had given the ques tien of winding up their serious consideration, but they were unable to come to the determination of adopting that course, and under the cireninstances they thought it would be better to continue the working of the com pany under the new system of management till the end of the year, by which time they would have a better opportunity of judging what had best be done. To peremptorily wind up the concern and send 27 ships into the market would have a prejudicial effect on their value, and the directors had not courage to recommend such a course. He thought it was better for them to continue working till the end of the year, and in the ,mean time probably some of the ships might be advan tageously disposed of. In conclusion he complained of the conduct of two proprietors, members of the late Committee of Co-operation, who bad unjustifiably attacked the directors by letters in .the news papers, adding that if the attacks were made in that room, as they ought; with the shareholders present, the directors would meet them, but that it was impossible for them to do so in a newspaper controversy. He also condemned their conduct in depreeiatiog the value of the ships. St. 100 20 all 10 all 12); 5 : 100 25 all 25 all St. 100 10j 1 10 1 1 London SiN. Western Do. Fifths .. Do. JO/. Sh.,M&B 0 Do.

CRIMINAL COURT —(This Day.) OLD COURT. (Before the I4corder ) The Court having to wait for the arrival of a juryman in the case of Edward Hastings, charged with wilful and corrupt perjury, which commenced yesterday, John Llewellyn Griffiths, 30 years of age, clerk to Messrs. John Forster Porter and Co., was placed at the bar and pleaded guilty to embezzling and stealing the several sums of 121. 55., 401, 84/. 6;., 91., 131. ls., and 151. 114., the moneys of his empl )yers. Mr. Sleigh, who appeared for the prosecution, said that the prisoner had been upwards of ten years in the prosecutor's employ, and as he bad exhibited all the coalition possible since the discovery of his de falcations, he (Mr. Sleigh) was not instructed to state anything to aggravate the charge. The , prisoner's em ployers had no doubt been great sufferers by his conduct. The prisoner, a very respectable looking man, when asked if be tiad anything to say in mitigation of punish,4 ment, said he could only throw himself on the mercy of the Court. The learned Rec)rder, in passing sentence, said that the prisoner had been placed in a situation of confidence, which he had taken arivantage of to plunder his em ployers to a considerable extent. The indictment to which he had pleaded guilty contained charges of em bezzlement amounting to upwards of 1001., and there was every reason to believe that those charges were bat a few of a long series of acts of a similar character. lie sentenced him to four years penal sertitudo. PERJURY. The missing juryman having arrived, the case of Ed ward Hastings, charged with wilful and corrupt perjury was resumed. A. number of witnesses were examined during the day relative to the construction of the fur naces used respectively by Messrs. Price and Co., and Messrs. Bauwen and Co., and the tri 1 partakes more of the character of a disputed patent case at nisi price than a criminal prosecution. The case, is expected to occupy an , ther day at least. NEW COURT. (13eforo Mr. Prendergast.) The learned commissioner was occupied the greater portion of the day in hearing charve of passing coun terfeit coin. They were of the ordinary description. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. (This Day.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. ATTEMPTED MURDER OF AN INFANT.—Bridget Rave nagh, a milk carrier,residing at No. 22, Fitzr ry-nsarket, was brought before Mr. Beo.don, charged with attempt ing to murder her infant child, by atrusinisteting to it some kind of narcotic poison. Mr. William Boyd Muebed, surgeon, University Hos pital, deposed that yesterday afternoon, about three o'clock, the prisoner at the bar was brought to him at the hospital, with a child in her ar ns, by a man. Mr. Beadon—What was the age of the child ? Mr. Mushed—About four or five months old. Mr. Beadon—ln what state was the child ? Mr. Mushed—The child appeared to be suffering from some narcotic poison. Mr: Beadon—Had yon any conversation with the prisoner I . • Mr. Mushed—Yes, I asked her the particulars, to see if I could gather anything from her as t, the symp toms, but she gave me no answer. The man who was with her gave me the bottle produced, which smelt very strongly of laudanum. The prisoner then said she had purchas©d a pennyworth of aniseed at a public house in Tottenham-court-road, which she had given to the child. I then directed the child to be removed to one of the wards, and the usual remedies were at oncesap- OA to restore animation, but with very little success, as the child was just alive and that was all. • Mr. Beadon— What wore the symptoms.? Mr. Mustied—The symptoms were compatible with those of a child poisoned by opium, or some narcotic poison. The pupils of the eyes were contracted, and the featurz.s pals and emaciated. The chill was of so tender an age that it was impel-Me for it to recover. The child was no doubt dead by this time. John Maynard, No. 31, Fitzroy-market, said—Yes tfelay afternoon I was in my workshop when I heard the noise of a woman crying proceed from No. 32. I went to the apt, but seeing the doors and windows closed, I returned to my shop. In about five minutes afterward', I saw my next, door neighbour go into the house - and heard her say, "shut the child's mouth." I went into the house and saw the Child lying on a chair. Prisoner was there. I asked her what was the matter with the child, and told her it appeared to be dying, aid recommended her to take it to the hospital. I then took up the child and carried it as far as the hospital, followed by the prisoner, to whom on her arrival I gave it up. The bottle produced was glvsn to me by a peron named Ward, as he Was re turning from the hospital, and I gave it to the surgeon. Another witness was examined, who proved heating the prisoner wish the child was dead, as she war tired of the troulie oc nursing it. This witness eiro proved seeing the prisoner administer corns liquid to the child out of a bottle. The child immediately became insensible and appeared to be dying. The prisoner, who appeared to feel her position most acutely, was remanded for a week. WESTMINSTER. A BAD EXAMPLE. —Maly Webster, a m:ddle aged Irishwoman, was charged with being drunk and creating a disturbance at the house of Mr. William Nate, the White Hart, Milbank-street. Complainant said, that about 8 o'clock last evening the defendant came to his.house intoxicated, and created such a disturbance that he found it necessary to put her out, upon which she assatilted him and created a crowd of persons, at the same time using very bad language. She was so violent that he was obliged to hold her to prevent her breaking his windows. Defendant said she wont down to -the house to bring her boys home, and there found her husband drunk. In coining out she slipped down by accident, and thinking that her husband was by her side, began beating him for getting in the state. She found him drunk, instead of coming home and putting the boys to bed, as he ought to have done. Mr. Arnold—But you were drunk yourself. Defendant—rd taken three drops; but why didn't he put the boys to bed ? Mr. Arnold—ltAeems to me that while you are find. ing fault with your husband's impropriety of conduct, you are entirely forgetting your own. If you wish him t 3 keep sober, you should set him the example of sobriety yourself. Defendant—l went to the pawn-ofEce to get a little money to pay the rent, and met a body there, who treated me, and then I went for him to put the children to bed. Mr. Arnold—ln plain English, I suppose you got so drunk that you could not, so went for him to do it. You are setting your children as well as your husband a bad example. Mr. Neate informed the magiAt ate that the husband was a very quiet, respectable man, not addicted to drunkenness; He was sober when she came to the house last night. In consequence of her habitual drunkenness, her children came to his house repeatedly for shelter. Mr. Arnold said that her conduct was very disgrace ful, and committal her for 14 days in default of a flue. THAMES. A MEAN AND DESPICABLE TlllEF.—Robert Newell, an able-bodied fellow, aged 22, was brought before Mr. Yardley, charged with stealing the lunches of two men, named Thomas Mayaar3, a cooper, and Cornelius Cor bett, a labourer. Maynard saw the prisoner go into a shed on the north quay, where the former had deposited his dinner, consisting of bread and meat, and which he intended to eat at 12 o'clock, the " lunch time" in the dock. The prisoner was immediately captured, on which he raid, "Take your dinner, and let me go." Oa searching him, some bread and butter belonging t Corbett, which he had deposited in another shed, was found upon him. Mr. John Payne, a dock constable, said, a great many poor men, labourers in the dock had lost their food in the course of the last month, and it was believed the prisoner who had been seen prowling about the dock was the thief. The loss fell with great severity on the popr labourers who provided themselves with a little repast to eat in the middle of the day, and who could not leave the dock until four in the afternoon. The prisoner admitted his guilt and asked for mercy. Mr. Yardley raid the prisoner was a mean and despi cable thief, a,.1 ill conditioned lazy fellow, who would steal and eat the food of the hard working men, insteadprisoner to be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for one month. The hearing of the petition for the winding-up of the London and Eastern Bulking Corporation, in the Court of Chancery, ie postponed until the 214 inst., when it will come on before Vice-Chancellor Wood, at ipwioh, 5, 1857 GAFFER TROOPS FOR INDIA. . , Mr. Richard Browne, t in a letter to tlie Times, dated GlasgoW,.Sept. 12, sais :—" T have read with pleasuee the letter of "Q. S. E." hi your paper of yesterday as to recruiting negroes for tropical ser vice in the East: " I was in Ceylon in 1816, just after the conquest of the island by our troops, and at that time there were five or six colonial re4iinents embodied, sevo ral.of which were‘composed of Africans and officered from the Line. These Africans were recruited almost exclusively from the Caffre tribes between _Natal and Sofala, of a height at least eqUal to the average of any English regimen', were brave, do .rile,,good-tampered, and clearly. They had left behind in Ali is any religion they had, and believed in nothing but their officers, to whom they, as a rule, b: came strongly attached. " What his been done before may be done again, and-there must still be many officers surviving who served in and with those regiments, and can speak. as to their value and how they were raised. They might he made available for many duties that are .harrassiug to the Englhh soldier, as their confreres in the West Indies are, and, besides, every Caffre that you EO employ withdrawa from Africa one who is a thorn in the side of our countrymen there, and an item in the hordes who periodically carry destruction and death into the colony, and are with difficulty driven out by the 'very troops to whom in proper hands they might prove such valuable auxi'iaries. "I trust that the subject may receive the serious attention of some one morel _potent to deal with it." . COM THE ROYAL BRITISH BANK. Annex , d is a summary furnished by Messrs. J. E.

AUSTRALIAN CEREALS AND MINERALS. The statistical accounts from South Australia are highly satisfactory, and show that the steady reliance on, and the substantial development of, its three staple productions of corn, wool, and copper gives it great commercial weight, as respects the other Aus tralian dependencies, in its trausactionswith this and other countries. We find during the past year its pro gress has been most remarkable in comparison with its sister colonies. Within twelve months it has doubled its exports. In 1855 the total declared value of the produce of the co!ony shipped from its port; was 686,9531., while in 1356 the amount was 1,398,367 i. Notwithstanding that as yet no remunerative gold fields have bean wet with in Sopth Australia, its commercial advance is much more marked than that of Vict7)ria, with its extraordinary yield of the precious metals ; fur scarcely any excess of ship ments are shown in 1356 as compared with 1855 in the returns from that colony, demonstrating, there the South f n e e i g v ie ly a g tl r i i a c t ul w ti l t i r i a l e l t d l .eevVictorians have been Australians have not cl.4)arted from the more staple occupations to search for gold, and have been fully rowarded by the great yield of cer.tel productions, to an extent, iu fact, equivalent in benefit to the result of gold workings in Vietot ia, when the difference of population is considered. It is argued, and appa rently with much force, th a t although Victoria, with its numerous gold fields, and large yield of the precious metals, has proluced in the aggregate a great amount of we dth to the inhabitants, yet, , taking into consideration tha vast number of bands thus. employed, and the distribution of the wealth among that numlier, the sister colony of South Australia, with its comparatively limited popula tion, his yielded even greater wealth by its agri cultural and animal productions, apart from its vast supply of copper.—Mining Joarnal. A CHILD .FALLING INTO A WATERBuTT,'—Yesterday afternoon a child was taken' to University College Hospital with a tractured thigh, and nearly drowned, by falling into a waterbut'. -It was left in a room by itself, and it clambered up to the window, when, looking on its own r:flection in the water, it fell over. Fortunately the mother heard the splash, and, rushing to the place, was enabled to prevent the infant being drowned. THE PETTING STONE AT A NORTHUMBERLAND WED DING —On coming out of a country church the other day, alter a wedding, I found• a sort of •barrier erected at the churchyard gate, consisting of a large paving stone placed on its edge, and supported by two smallest stones, and on either side a rustle., who made the happy-couple and everyone else jump over it. On inquiry I was told it was the " petting stone,' which the bride had to jump, in case she should re pent and refuse to follow her husband. I have heard of a custom of a football being placed before the bride on leaving the chrrcb, which the husband ordered her to kick, and so makes ht .r immediately commence her obedience to him. Perhaps the petting stone and the football may be for the same purpose.—Notes and Querns. A Constantinople letter of the 2d in the Gazette du Midi giies the conditions of the concession lately granted by the Porte of a railway from the Danube to the Black Sea, startinr , from Boghaskeni un that river, wid terminating at .

PORTRAIT OF MISS NIGHTINGALE.—She is rather high in stapre, fair in complexion, and slim in person ; h er hair is brown, and is worn quite plain ; her physiognomy is most pleasing ; her eyes, of a bluei4h tint, speak vo lumes, and are always sparkling with intelligence ; her mouth is small and well formed, while her lips act in unison, and make known the impression of the heart — one seems the refit xof the other. Her visage, as regards expression, is very remarkable, and one can almost anti-. cipate by her countenance what she is about . to s t ay ; alternately, with matters of the most grave import, gentle' smile passes radiantly over her couuteancoe,l proving . her evenness of temper ; .at when.othetsr.thinre-bappy, wit or pleasantry prevails, the heroine in lo r a th good-natured smile which pervades recognise only the charming woman . s , e e-11 _ ef _ ra a tc r de a r'e a assn s d i i ro s 3,ge nerally of a greyish or black tint; h u_ r w oy e er , 6 culim i' gry white cap, and often a rough apro .

" Within the town of Carrick-ar..-Stfir; distant about 12 miles from Clonmel, we learn that one of those advocates of Sepay barbarity,!ehirlded by the darkness of the night, has, in several inflanithatory addressee; chalked upon the gateways grid doors in one of the leading thorough fares, given vent to Lis own treasonable' malignity, and has endeavoured to incite the people of that district to overt acts of the. most terr ible character.

VIENNA, Sept. 11.—The folloiving official docu ment has been published, which proves that ne greater political privileges will be granted to the Hungarians than to the inhabitants of the other ft ovinces of the empire : " Dear Cousin Archduke Albrecht, —During my re cent tour through the greater part of my kingdom of Hungary I everywhere met with the most lively expres sion of attachment on the part of all the different races, and innumerable striking, and on all occasions wed meant, proofs of loyal homage and sincere devotion. " I alzo observed with satisfaction the remarkable pro gress which Hungary has made in all respects since I travelled through it five years ago, and convinced myself that the institutions which—after ripe consideration and with due regard to the peculiarities of the country, were introduced in accordance with my organic ordinances of December 31, 1851, have essentially contributed to its evident improvenent. "I feel assured that their salutary infiuence will be still more felt when the commerce of the country is more developed and there are grea' 2r facilities of cwnmuniza tion— when the mearnras relative to the emancipation of the soil are entirely carried out, and the new organisa tion is completed. "Being resolved that the fundamental principles which have hitherto guided me in the government of my empire shall be maintained inviolate, it is my will that this vhould be universally known, and particularly that all the organs of my Government do teke my will for their exact rule of conduct. "At the same time it will be my anxious care that allowance shall be made for the national pezuliarities of the different races, and that due attention shall be paid to the cultivation of their language. "To you, my well-btl wed, I return my wannest thanks for the circumspection and devotion with which you have conducted the government of my kingdom. I at the tame time commission you U express to the pro vincial authorities my extreme content with the zeal and devotedness which they have displayed under various difficult circumstances (enter vielfacken Schvierigkeilcit), anti I expect that they will in future do ail in their power to realise my benevolent inteLtious for the benefit of the country and of its inhabitants. "FRANCIS JOSUE!. " Laxenburg, Sept. 9, 1857," , PROMPT DESPATCII AND RAPID SAILING.—About,I 2 days ago a telegraphic messa g e was sent from the War office t, Mesi , rs. D. and C. M:re - Ivor, in Liverpool, inti mating that a powerful and fast steamer was wanting instantly to proceed to Gibraltar, and bring home a regiment of soldiers. Immediately on receiving the mes sage, the screw steamer Jura, one of the Cunard line, was put in preparation, and was despatched halm Livers pool within 23 hours after the message had left London. She proceeded at once to Gibraltar, and, immediately en arriving there, began to embark the troops. She took on board 1,100 soldiers, besides a nuin• her of women and children. So soon as -they were safely embarked the Jura started on her homeward voyage, and landed the whole safely iu Portsmouth liar beur within 10 -days after the order was received iu Liverpool that a steamer was wanted to go to Gibraltar —a promptitude of despatch believed to be without parallel. - CALCRAFT ABROAD IN LIVERPOOL—On Saturday evening, Calcraft, the " finisher of the law," • having been on a visit to Altsopp's Wax-work, in Lime-street, Liverpool, for the purpose, it is understood of nigotiat ng a sale to that gentleman of the clothes -in which Captain Rogers had been executed that morning, and the object of his visit having been accomplished, be took a stroll into St. John's:-market, for the purpose, as he said, of purchasing some partridgele In the market he was recognised, and met with a reception more warm than cordial, e: Well induced him and a g entleman. who accompanied him to beat a speedy retreat, which they succeeded in aceomplishing by one of the side entrances, and took refuge in a celebrated " s aloon" close by Here the luxurious refugee, while " settlin g his nerves" . by a " caulker" of Cogniac, accidentally laid down his a . p or ec a n i l t i7 sound, revealed to wit, the hook s h o a m nd e k o e i rc o h e ie i f, m v p v l h e i tn ch e , nt rn s a o k f iu h g is and chain which were supposed to be appurtenances of the gallows.

SUMITARY POSTPONEM -ENT OF A SALE.—As anything connected with the affairs of Cel.mel Waugh has now become as it were public property, it may not be out of place it we give the particulars of a little oircurnstaoce that occurred on Thursday, at Lytchet Matraverr, j ust as related to us. It appears that the colonel occ u p ied, rip to the time . o f hi s " smash," a farm called Castle Farm, and that he had hired a bailiff from the north of England to manage it, who, however, has so far given six months' ser v ice without any consideration. A_soale of the stock and effects was an nounced for three o'clock I c_ k on Thursday afternoon last , b y M r • Clark, auctioneer, of _ Wimborne, without rese rve, under a distress for rent, owing to R. Trenchard, Esq. C onse q uentl y a g oodly number of persons assembled, with the view, doubt less, of meeting with a bargain or two ; but just b e fore the hour n amed a fly end pair of horses drove up at full gallop from Poole, and out jumped Mr. Spillman , t and 1: M K • r ight, the an auctioneer fm thformeroe rne rpe .s, m a n liff fro ro m the place, by who nerttee of hi g h-ba , , replevin was handed in. Mr. Clark at first refused t o refinquish his authority over the goods, but be *As politely handed off the premises by the high-bailiff, and all the would be purchasers had to follow. Every one grumbled loud and deep at the disappointment, and at tee loss of time they had thus uselessly lauetained. It is said that Mr. Spillman had previously announced the sale for Saturday, on which day he attended, n uclei' was sold in about au hour, most of the corn being bought in. On whose suit Mr. Spillman ultimately sold our infor mant does not say, but there is little donbi, it was in connection with the London and Eastern Bank Waked —Dorscl Chronicle.
