TRIALS OF PRiSONERS. The fin/6 trial proceeded •with, -was that of Alice Roddy, dressmaker, :and Mary Jones, charwoman both of Liverpool, charged with !Wing, on the 4th May:last, in their 'possession a mould. for -the making of counterfeit shillings. .-They were also ckrged.With having in their pos session eight oeunterfeit shillissgs, with the intent to pass ;them. for good , moriey. The prosecution was conducted by Mr Cobbett, and neither of the priamers was defended. From the ev-idence it appeared that, from information re ceived, Murphy, the inspector of detective police, and Cousens the detective ettieer, went to tlae lodgings occupied by the prisoners in Collingwood-street, On the day named in :the indictment, and : :found the prisoners there. On searching casually the person of Reddy, the mould was found. Jones, when finding thediscovery likely to beinevitable, threw some thing away, and imthe place to which thoi was thrown the eight shillings referred to were found. She was clearly detected in the act of throwing away a fourppny-piece, which on examination proved to be spurious, and which she ad mitted she had received from the prisoner Rc4dy. Both prisoners were ,fend guilty, and The learned Judge, ..after remarking on the mischievous ~nature of the of ence.wkiet had been proved Igainst them, .sea each to be imprisoned 18 months, withebard labour, remarking that Jones•must the an inveterate offender, as she had been up previously on feur different occasions. The prisoner Jones here:requested his lordship to. order her imprisonment in any other gaol elan that of Kirkdale. They were-ordered to be sent to - , Lancaster Castle. John Connor was next charged with having in his ~possess ion fifteen counterfeit shillings .10th intent to pass them off as good.nioney. In this case, ids% Mr. Cobbett promoted, and the prisoner was undefended. It appeared from the evidence that this case was. in a con siderable degree mixed up with 'the previous one, Connor having been connected with the two former prisoners. From the testimony of the two detective officers above alluded to, when the two women were taken into custody, Connor busied himself in showing all the materals, and advising the officers to leave nothing belonging to them. In this way he pointed out the mould found and referred to in the preceding case, as also other materials and implements used in the manufacture of false coin. On Friday last he was taken into custody, with fifteen base shillings in his possession. On being searched, eight additional spurious shillings were founcfsin one of his pockets. He was found guilty, and sentenced to be impri- coned for 18 months, with hard labour. George Marsden, block printer, charged with burglary and stealing, in Manchester ; Thomas Heaton, weaver, charged with burglary and stealing, in Manchester ; Matthew Bell, plaisterer, charged with bigamy, at Manchester; an d Thomas Taylor, collier, charged with burglary and theft, at Bolton, pleaded guilty. Sentences deferred. A WHOLESALE UTTERER OF FORGED NOTES.—Joseph Hall, (35) packer, was indicted for having, at Manchester, on the 21st of June, passed a forged Bank of England note, with in- tent to defraud the governor and company of that bank. On the evening of the day named, the prisoner was met in a public house in Manchester by a woman named Anderson, who told him, in answer to enquiries, that he could have lodgings at her house—one of disreputable character. On sitting down he . . proposed to treat the females, and pulled two or three shillings out of his pocket, but immediately remarked that it would not be enough. He then produced a £6 note and gave it to Mrs. Anderson, desiring her to bring a bottle of whisky. Mrs. Anderson and one of the girls took the cote to the Pack-horse public-house, the landlord of which, also named Anderson, discovered that it was a forgery. The prisoner, on being told of this, said he would "make it all right at the bank in the morn ing," but he was at once taken into custody. The Prisner had passed a forged £6 note on the 18th June, at the Shakepere Hotel, and April he had also given one or two forged notes to a girl named Anne Cort, a native of Bol ton, with whom he had lived at Manchester for some time. Cort was called as a witness under rather curious cir cumstances. She received the notes from him at Manchester, as a consideration for his having taken her from her native place. When she returned to Bolton she got one of the notes changed by one of her friends, and shortly afterwards it was discovered to be a forged one, and she was taken up, and com mitted for trial, the magistrates not believing her story as to how she became possessed of the note. On being arraigned at the bar amongst a number of other prisoners she at once recognised Hall, who was also in the dock, as the man who had given her the forged note. She communicated with Mr. Harris, the head constable, who informed the prosecuting counsel, and the result was that Cort was transferred to the witness-box, and gave her evidence against Hall, who feebly denied her story. The jury, however, believed it, and found Hall guilty. Sentence was deferred until this (Tuesday) morning. The prosecution against Cort was abandoned, and at his lordship's direction she was set a liberty. BrItGLA.BY AT MANCHESTEII.—John Maddocks, 16, tailor, and Henry Campbell, 18, factory worker, Were indicted for having at Manchester, on the night of the 30th of March last, burglariously entered the dwelling-house of Charles Chaplin, and stolen a shawl, a cloak, a pair of boots, two coffee-pots, and sundry other articles, to the value of £lO. The police discovered that the house had been entered, and saw two men coming away from the place, one of whom (Maddocks) they captured.

RECAPTURE OF PRINCE MENSCiNIKOFF'S CARRIAGE.— The carriage of Prince Menschikoff, captured at the battle of the Alma, was some time ago purchased by Mr. Hough, the proprietor of the model of Sebastopol now exh i b i ting at the Queen's Hall, Bold-street. The party who sold it was Cap tain Barclay, of the ship Mohawk, who brought it direct from Balaclava. For several weeks it has been exhibited at the Queen's Hall, along with the model of Sebastopol, but a person of the name of Rafferty now claims it, In order to enforce that claim, a large number of men went _with a cart to the Queen's Hall, on Thursday, and whilst a lecture was going on in the hall explanatory of the model, - the men rushed up stairs in a body, entered the room after overcom ing a stout resistance offered to them, seized the carriage, and attempted to take it away. Two of the attendants were struck by some of the men, and the assailants would have accomplished their object (for they had succeeded in drag ging the carriage out of the room, and partly down the stairs) had not the police arrived and put an end to the disturbance by taking the ringleaders and five others into custody. The rest of the attacking party ran away. As it was, the claim ing party succeeded in possessing themselves of the carriage wheels, which were pl ace d i n th e cart b roug ht by them, an d which, along with themselves and the wheels, was taken to the Police-office. On Friday, Rafferty and hig assistants were brought before the Magistrates, charged with attempting to steal the carriage. It appeared, however, that Rafferty had some reason for believing he had purchased the carriage from Captain Barclay, although some conditions of the alleged pur chase were unfulfilled, and the case was dismissed, COMMERCIAL and MONETARY NEWS. MONDAY NIGHT. THE Money Market during the week has presented very little worthy of notice, the fluctuations, as in the preceding week, being very trifling, and the standard price of 91 for Consols not being departed from more than a quarter per cent. This absence of vitality is owing no doubt to the season of the year, most persons enjoying recreation in the country or at the sea-side rather than attending to business, for which there is little inducement at present. At the same time, the news from the seat 'of war have been merely variations of " all's well," without either successes or reverses to give an impetus to speculation. The repayment of the deposits on the French Loan, which will be made in a day or two, will, no doubt, render money more plen tiful; while, on the other hand, the passing of the Limited Liability Bill may give employment to more capital. The Bank returns, on Friday, show a dimi nution in the stock of bullion to the extent of £153,658, but the notes unemployed have increased £111,155 ; notwithstanding there is an increase of " other secu rities" of £679,663. The other changes are compara tively unimportant. Money for commercial purposes is still very easy, the rate of discount for first-rate paper ruling as low as 21 per cent., the Bank minimum remaining at 3-1- per cent. • The accounts from Manchester are rather of a desponding character, the trade being dull, owing to 'carious causes, which, though combined, may account for the present indisposition to operate, but are neither of them more than of a "te nporary character. The remedy sought is in diminished production, and in Blackburn a I - osolution has been come to, to work the factories only four days a-week ; but according to the circular of Messrs. 110 - ofi BALFOUR :and Co., a rapid return tom' e 'usual )ours of labour is anticipated. The , a rivals of. Oecie last week amounted to about £520,000, all in gold. The shipments being estimated at about 2100;00, and as the -Foreign Exchanges are favourable, .it is - believed that 'the greater portion will go 'into 'the liarik coffers. The Great-western dividend will be'dt - thorate of only 21,per cent. per annum. Anote the following remarks from the circular 'of Messrs.' f. and H. LIit'LEDALE and Co. A strong apprehension prevailed for some days, flag 'the 'Chancellor of the Exchequer was going to impose an addi tional 'lO per cent. on Ace import duties, and considerable quantities of Sugar and Zea were in consequence released from bond; but the very'recent date of the late increase—the immedtuteclose of the'Sz'ssion of parliament, andthe injurious "effect of such a pleasure, at this critical period of the year, seemed to combine toFrender it most improbable—and by the meaoire now proposed, of issuing £7,000,000 of Exchequer ' bills and bonds, any' change in customs' duties may be con sidered at an end--.that an increase may be imposed by the spring budget, should the war continue, is inure than probable, and may justly enter into the calcalations .of 'merchants now stnding out theittrders to the Mauritius and elsewhere. The +quantity of Sugar thus duty paid duriug She month makes our stocks appear tt:en lighter than they are.; but of refinin g qualities there is a decided scarcity, as -shown by the relativ e advance in {bete kinds compared with grocery descriptions— the one having improved ss. in vane since the change in duty, and the latter only 2s. 6d.

The winning club was only formed this season, and this early success augurs well for its futur9_progress. A STRANGE WAY OF "SAVING ONE'S BACON."---AIM Jane Brewer, a distressed-looking young girl, was charged by Mrs. Mary Ann Moss, of Lowndes-street, with d e f rau di ng her. The complainant said the prisoner's parents having had their house and property stripped by bailiffs, she had given her meat and clothing, and employed her to run on errands, or to do any little service in return for the charity bestowed on her. On Saturday afternoon she sent her with 12s. to release some articles from pledge. This the girl did, and she was sent a second time with 45., to redeem some other articles. This time she appropriated the money and spent it. Mr. Bluck, who appeared for her, urged that it was merely a breach of trust. Addressing the complainant, he asked, " She was not a servant at all, was she ?" Complainant : "Oh no, sir, she was merely in my house out of charity ; I wasn't to pay her anything !" Mr. Bluck : " Oh, of course not ; that's just what saves ,her bacon !" (Laughter.) The bench viewed the case as one of breach of trust, and discharged the girl. A STREET ROBBERY SMARTLY DETECTED.—WiIIiam Dickenson, a carter, was charged yesterday before the magis trates with stealing a bag of Indian corn. About six o'clock on. Saturday evening, while police-officer 395 was on duty in Regent-street, a person came up and informed him that he sus pected a robbery had been committed. He then detailed what he had seen. The prisoner was proceeding along Regent-road with.acart load of empty sacks. Before him was a cart with full Saeks of Indian corn. He took one of the full sacks, and with the assistance of the other driver placed it upon the shafts of his own cart, and shortly afterwards transferred it to a donkey cart which came up, and began to drive off. The person who witnessed the transaction then informed the officer,wlio apprehended the driver of the donkey cart and the prisoner, who was following it. The donkey cart had been en gaged by,semc man who was also following it, but disappeared on seeing it stopped by the police-officer. The prisoner's cart and the other, it appeared, were employed in carting from a ship to a warehouse in Barton-street, for Messrs. Franghedi and Co. These circumstances having been proved by witnesses, Super intendent Clough ask where was the driver of the cart from which the sack was stolen ? The Officer : He was at the horse's head when ; the bag was taken, and did not see the robbery.—Mr. Clough: You should have brought him here.— The case was remanded until to-day, for the production of the other carter. No MISTAKE, Tarps TlME.—George Maitland, a showily dressed young man, of "smart " adress, and a decided "me tropolitan" accent, was b roug ht up at the Police-court yester day, by of f icer 534, charged with attempting to pick pockets at the Prince's-parade. Mrs. Priscilla Robinson, a rather plain-spoken" old lady, from Manchester, said :—" I was on the pierhead this morning wi' my good man, looking at the ,Isle of Man packets going off, -when I felt summat thrutching me, and a turnin' roun' I see this young chap's hand in my poaret.

T R. 'rids Year. Aug.to 35740 20390101 rather of a conflicting character, it appears an admitted fact that the quantity of useable Fruit will not exceed that of last season ; and, looking at the great disparity between the stock on hand now, which is under 400 tons against 1,600 tons at this time last year, we see just cause to apprehend a great scarcity may be felt even to meet the demand up to the end of the year, and as a natural consequence prices may be forced up far beyond present rates ; so that the present appears a favour able time to make safe purchases. A complete stagnation appears to prevail in Raisins generally, and particularly for Black, which were in general demand a short time back for the French market, and purchases may now be made much below former rates. Valencias show rather a more healthy appearance, although still in only retail demand : other descriptions not inquired for. We have lately had a tolerable supply of Lemons from Sicily, and which have met with a steady demand at improving prices. Very few Oranges now now coming in, and a scarceness prevails. WooL.---We have no alteration to notice in this market during the week ; the attention being drawn towards our public sales which commence this day,l and at which about 6,000 bales, comprising East India, Egyptian, &c., will be offered. The imports for the week consist of 155 bales, Mediterranean ; 368 bales, l Portugal ; 2 bales, United States ; 408 bales, Scotch ; 54 Irish ; and 10 coastwise ; total, 997 bales. METALS.---There has been a very active demand for Scotch Pig Iron at improved rates, the latest quota tions being 775. per ton for store warrants mixed numbers f.o.b. at Glasgow. Manufactured Iron has also been in good demand at a proportionate improve - - ment. Other Metals without alteration. The late advance in Tin has been maintained. WAVERTREE BOARD OF HEALTH. THE monthly meeting of this board was held last night, in the Public Offices; the Rev. W. Badnall occupying the chair. There were likewise present Messrs. Halhead, Hill, Bradburn, Clark, Gore, Chaffers, and Rishton. The minutes of the previous meeting were read and ap proved of ; after which the business of the meeting chiefly consisted of the reading of communications from inhabitants of the township, generally complaining of some matter or other, the neglect of which occasioned inconvenience or detri ment to the complainants. Litinrnic. PIQUE-LANE.-A memorial was read from the inhabitants of this district of the township, complaining that although the attention of the board had several years ago been called to the fact that no public lamps had been put up in Pique-lane, or, as it was also called, Dryden-road, while the Liverpool Gaslight Company's mains had been long laid down in the lane, and craving that public lamps might be put up before winter sets in. In reference to this memorial, it was explained that, the expediency of erecting lamps wherever the gas mains had been laid down, and such lamps should be applied for, had been long ago agreed to. Mr. HALHELD then moved, and Mr. CHAFFERS seconded the motion, that lamps be put up in the quarter now applied for. MR. PICTON'EI SEAT AT TILE BOARD.-Mr. PICTON, at this stage of the proceedings, entered the board-room, and ex plained that he had come in consequence of a note he had re ceived from the Law-clerk of the board, intimating that from protracted absence from the meetings be had forfeited his seat at the board. He said he did not know exactly how the matter stood, but that he had not abstained voluntarily from attending, he having for some time been prevented by pressing business. Still he did not think he had been so long absent as to forfeit his seat. Mr. ATHERTON, the Law-clerk, explained that the statute declared any seat forfeited, the occupant of which had been absent for three consecutive months. He also, by reference to the minute-book, showed that Mr. Picton had not attended any meeting for three and a half months. PrrioN then made his obeisance to the chairman, and retired. The CHAIRMAN expressed regret that the board should be deprived of the valuable services of Mr. Picton, who had, he said, proved himself one of the most useful of its members. He suggested that some expression of this feeling should be made by the board. Mr. RISHTON said such a course would be altogether irregular and a bad precedent. When a gentleman was elected to fill any office, he was of course expected to dis charge its duties. The matter then dropped. On it representation from George Williams, one of the lamp-lighters, his wages were raised from 12s. to 14s. per week. 'SEWEILING OP SANDOWN-LANE.—An application from Miss Poole was read, setting forth that she was subject to great annoyance, in consequence of the contractor for the sewerage in that lane blasting in the course of his operations, and pray ing that lie might be debarred from doing so. A protracted conversational discussion arose upon this sub ject, in which it was stated that the complaint of Miss Poole had been referred to Mr. Newlands, as the engineer under whose direction and controul the contract was being carried out. That he had issued orders to the contractor to desist from the use of blasting; and that, under all the circum stances of the case, the board could not interfere. Mr. HALHEAD moved that the Law-clerk be instructed to acknowledge Miss Poole's communication. This was agreed to, and after the transaction of some rou tine business, the board adjourned.

DESPATCH FROM GENERAL SIMPSON: The Gazette contains a despatch from General iiMpson dated 31st July. Notwithstanding the rocky nature of the gronnd.and light ness of the nights, the works were steadily thirugh slowly advanced in the direction of the Redan. An agreeable change had taken place in the weather ; heavy showers of rain had occasionally fallen. Several reconnaissances had been made from the Valley of Baidar towards Ozenbash, Aitodor, and through Phoros Pass towards Allupka—the enemy nowhere appearing in any force; but the narrowness of the mountain road, with the exception_ of the Woronzow, makes it unnecessary for them to alter their concentrated position on the heights of Mackenzie and the Plateau of the Belbeck. Health of the troops continued satisfactory.. Casualties from 27th to 29th July, inclusive .—Killed, 1 sergeant and 11 rank and file. Wounded, Lieut. A. Goren, 19th, slightly; Captain L. Thornton, 44th, slightly; MajOrC. F. Campbell, 460, slightly; Captain N. Steevens, 88th, slightly; Assistant-Surgeon E. Lundy, 79th, slightly; 2 ser geants, and 106 rank and file. Prince Gortschakoff telegraphs on the 9th :—" There is nothing new. The fire of the enemy is weak." The Times' Paris correspondent, writes :—" A private letter from St. Petersburg mentions that great depression prevails among all classes in that city, owing to the duration of the war, which completely paralyses all branches of commerce and industry. This depression has gained even the leading per sonages of the old Russian party, hitherto so warlike, but who are now beginning to despond. Nearly all labour is suspended in the manufacturing quarters, in consequence of the want of primary materials, which no longer arrive from abroad, and also from the want of hands—all being employed in the defence of the empire. The produce of the soil has no longer a market abroad, and in the interior business is at a stand still, and articles of the most indispensable kind have attained an exor bitant price. Coffee, sugar, and salt are now luxuries hardly, to be seen, except on the sacrifice of money imposed by the present circumstances; and the number of Bayards who will. be ruined by the war is beyond all idea." OVERLAND MAIL. TRIESTE, AUGUST 12TH. The steamer Bombay arrived at 6 30 p.m. She left Alex andria on the 7th. Despatches by the Indian Mail left Alexandria on the 7th, with advices from Bombay of July 11th, and Calcutta of. the 4th. THE FUNDS, STOCK, AND SHARE MARKET.
