SALE OF THE LIVERPOOL, CROSBY, AND SOUTHPORT RAILWAY.—The Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway proprie tors, at a meeting on Thursday, confirmed the agreement for the purchase of the Liverpool, Crosby, and Southport line, by a majority of 5,327 votes. FATAL ACCIDENT ON BOARD SHIP.-01.1 Thursday, a boy, named Regan, was employed to store some coals on board a ship in the Victoria Dock ; and when lifting up one of the hatches, he by some means slipped and fell upon some casks in the hold, receiving such injuries as caused his death in little more than an hour. CRICKET MATCH AT BIRKENHEAD.—On Thursday evening, a cricket match was concluded between the second eleven of the Olympus Club (Prince's-park), and the first eleven of the Birkenhead Victoria. There was some " hard hitting" on both sides. The Victoria won, with five wickets to spare. FINE ARvs.—A very choice and valuable collection of about three hundred oil and water colour paintings, the property of Messrs. Agnew and Son, of Manchester, has been opened for exhibition at the Old Police-office, High-street. The collec tion includes the productions of the first men in the English and French schools of art. CHANCE FOR THE LOVERS OF THE FINE ARTS.—A fine collection of paintings, by well-known masters, both ancient and modern, is at present on view at Mr. Morrish's, Mer chants' Dining Rooms, in Tithebarn-street, where they are to be disposed of, on the 7th of next month, a l'Art Union, amongst 300 subscribers, at a guinea each.

Special permission was obtained to use the fine ground of the Bootle Club. The wickets were pitched at half-past four o'clock, and the game terminated in favour of the Derby Club, by six wickets to go down. The playing on both sides was spirited, although the scoring did not run vety high. THE TRIAL TRIP OF THE LABVAN took place on Wed nesday, and was attended with highly satisfactory results, the speed attained being about eight knots an hour. The Labuan is an iron vessel of tubular construction, the sides curved round so as to form the deck ; and her double bottom will permit her to carry water ballast. She is intended for the coal trade of the Eastern Archipelago, and was built by Messrs.

The paintings are the property of Mr. Flatou, the well;known 'collector, of London, and are greatly superior to the average collections offered for auction sale in the provinces. STEALING MARKED MONEY. — At the Police-court, on Friday, John Smith, a yard-keeper in the employ of -Messrs. Humble, Grayson, and Co., Regent-road, was charged with stealing various sums of money belonging to his employers. The prisoner lived under the office, and the cash-keeper having missed various sums of money, he marked several pieces of gold coin ou Thursday, and left them in hiS drawer. He then went out, and on his return he found that several sovereigns and half-sovereigns had been stolen. The prisoner was taken into custody at his house, with several pieces of marked money in'his possession. He was committed for trial. THE CORPORATION BATHS AND WASHOITSRS—We learn. that these establiShments are in a most flourishing condition. The great demand 'for the accommodation they afford is a proof that the public ftilly appreciate the benefits which the libera lity of the towntouncil and the exertions of the baths com mittee have placed within the reach of all. Dniinglast week the number of bathers at Cornwallis-street was '6,238, at the Pier-head 3,521, and at Panl-Street 2,657, being nearly double the number of bathers for - the corresponding-week of last year. At the washhouses the number of persons who attended during the week was 243 at Paul-street, and 290 at Frederick-street All classes seem equally desirous of enjoying the baths. DEATH oF 'MR. JOHN NELSON WoOD. — This gentleman, who for many Tears carried on business as - a merchant and shipowner, in Liverpool, expired at four 'o'clock on Thursday morning, at his residence, Oaklands, Rock Ferry, Cheshire. Mr. Wood was born in the town of Maryport, Cumberland, and was 63 years of age. For ten or eleven days preceding his death he was confined 'to his bed, and for some time previous his health was declining. The deceased was for a number of years a member of the Liverpool , corporation, from which he retired in November, 1853; when:the term for which he could serve 'as alderman without being .re-elected expired according to the Municipal Act. Up to the time of his death he was chairman of the pilots' committee,- an office which he held for a considerable period. He was also for some years a member of the dock committee. Besides serving the public in these capacities, Mr. Wood was a warm-supporter of various charitable institutions of the town. He was for 30 years con nected with • the management of the Sailors' Hospital, an institution , whiclx merged in the Sailors' 'Home, and - during the latter portion of that time he held the -office of chairman of the committee. AN OLD OFFENDER.—A young woman, - named Elizabeth Rimier, about 23 years of age, of prepossessing appearance, was charged at the Police-court, on Wednesday, under the following circumstances :—She came out of Kirkdale Gaol on Monday, after serving three months' imprisonment for imposing upon parties in the neighbourhood of Bootle, by re presenting herself as a distressed daughter of more than one celebrated deceased person. The police, having other charges against her,-she was re-arrested. It appeared that, on the 7th March, She called to consult Mr. 7. P. Harris, surgeon, Clarence-street, and was shown into the -surgery. While there she contrived to abstract a case of surgical instruments, and also -the contents or managed to pawn with Mr. Little, of Brownlow-hill, by a plausible story about a distressed father. A day or two after that she obtained a situation as servant with Mrs. Nicholson, of Harford-street. There she stole a -.purse, containing £4 17s ed., 'inadvertently left on the kitchen table, and de camped. She was remanded for a week in erder to complete evidence in some other charges against her. There are some singular circumstances connected with this young woman. In 1852 a great sensation was created in this town by her mother and aunt being tried on a charge .of attempting to poison her, because she would not consent to-support them by prostituting herself. They were convicted -and sentenced to death, but subsequent inquiries into the character of their accuser led to a doubt of their guilt, and they were pardoned. WEST DEBBY GUARDIABI3.—The weekly meeting was held on Wednesday, when the balance in hand was found to be £329 12s. Bd. Cheques were drawn for out-door relief, &c., to the amount of £385 3s. Bd. The report received from the Visiting Committee upon the subject of the treatment of luna tics in the Workhouse, together with Dr..Nevins' report thereon, were received and adopted, and copies were ordered to be forwarded to the Poor-law Board. The-clerk was re quested to furnish a statement of the aggregate number of rate-payers in the 22 townships comprising the West Derby Union, with the valuation of property, and total amount of assessments. Mr. -ii. B. Reid, surgeon, Bootle-cum-Linacre, one of the medical officers of the union, having made a com plaint to the Poor-law Board that, during the late-visitation of cholera, he had only been allowed 18s. 9d. per week for his extra services, instead, of three guineas, which he considered a very moderate chargefor a professional gentleman at such a dangerous time, and the Poor-law Board having written to the guardians of the union, -inclosing a copy of Mr. Reid's letter, and requesting to be 'furnished with any observations the guardians might make upon it, it was resolved that the clerk do inform the Poor-law Board they consider the amounts ample. The number of -paupers relieved in the Workhouse last week was 701, being an increase of 76 on the correspond -lug week in last year. The number of paupers who received .out-door relief was as follows, namely :—Able-b0died,.7.76 ; not able-bodied, 890 ; children, 1,818: total, 3,484, showing an increase of 208 on the corresponding week in last half year. The amount expended in out-relief was £211,75. Bd. THE ORANGEMEN AND THE TWELFTH Or JULY.—On Thursday, the members of the different Orange lodges., in Liverpool, walked in procession 4n honour of the 12th of uly. Having been forbidden to assemble within the precincts of the borough, they, by previous arrangement, agreed upon Wavertree being their head place of meeting. About half past eight o'clock in the morning the various lodges, accom panied by their bands of music, began to assemble at Waver tree -bridge. From this point they tcok the route of Brook house, Smithdown-lane, where the met the different members belonging to the southern division of the town. The various lodges having been placed in order, they moved in procession towards Gateacre, Woolton, and Childwall, and about half-past one o'clock the entire body returned to " head-quarters," at Wavertree. The procession was headed by a carriage contain ing Esq., high sheriff of the comity of Shropshire, S. Burton, and grand master of the Orange lodges in England and Ireland. There were also several flags and banners in the procession, bearing appropriate devices, amongst the most conspicuous of which was one containing a portrait of the Rev. Dr. 111.`Neile, bearing the following in scription :—" Our countryman, our Protestant defender in Church and State." A beautiful flag of "Crammer and Latimer in prison" also attracted much attention. The different clubs separated for their respective club-houses, on arriving at the Coffee-house Hotel, in Wavertree; but pre parations had been made in the bowling green attached for an unlimited number of visitors, and about three o'clock Mr. Burton, the high sheriff of Shropshire, made his appearance amongst the company, and was loudly cheered. The chair man having addressed a few words to the meeting, Mr. Burton, the grand master, spoke at some length. He con gratulated them on the splendid display they had that day made. He spoke at considerable length in favour of the loyal character of Orangemen, and eon.cluded by an energetic appeal on behalf of the order. After several other speeches the company retired, but in other respects it was a great day in Wavertree, and thousands of spectators were present to witness the procession. At some twelve or fourteen houses festive gatherings were held in the evening. CURIOUS QUESTION or OWNERSHIP. —A case, involving a curious legal question as to ownership, was heard at the County Court, on Friday. John Boyd and George Duncan, coopers, were plaintiffs, and John Tyson, also a cooper, in Vulcan street, was defendant. The claim was for £l5 les. ed., for the value of eleven water casks, of 200 gallons each. In No vember last, the plaintiffs supplied Messrs. Millers and Thomp son with thirteen water casks for the Australian ship Gold finder. There was an option on the part of Messrs. Millers and Thompson, that they might either keep or send back so many of the casks as should not be passed lay the Government emigrant officer. Eleven of the casks were allowed to remain on the Prince's Dock quay until the 20th of December, when' Mr. Tyson, the defendant, went to Messrs. Millers and Thomp son, and asked if he could remove the casks in payment of a previous account he had against them. Permission was given to him and he removed them. Subsequently the plaintiffs also applied to Messrs. Millers and Thompson for the casks, having been inforned what had become of them. Mr. Thomp son said they had been given to Mr. Tyson in a mistake, and wrote a letter asking him to deliver up the casks to the plain tiffs. Armed with this letter, Messrs. Boyd and Duncan ap plied to Mr. Tyson, but he refused to give up the casks, on the ground that they had been given to him by the owners in payment of an account. Messrs. Millers and Thompson be came insolvent, and could not pay the plaintiffs. The action against the defendant was grounded on the argument, that Messrs. Millers and Thompson never were the owners of the casks, and had no right to give them to defendant. The judge decided that Messrs. Millers and Thompson, not having returned the casks in a reasonable time, had decided to keep them, so became the owners, and could, therefore, dispose of them as they thought ht, He gave judgulePt fox the defen dant, with costs. THE LIVERP THE NEW SHIP-BUILDING YARDS AT BIRKENHEAD.—Mr. John Laird has already commenced active operations at his new ship-building yard at Birkenhead, between the Woodside and Monks' Ferries. On Thursday he laid the keel to a small vessel, which was in " frame" the following day, and at which a gang of men were energetically at work. Mr. Laird's yard is more advanced than the others, but in a few months the whole of the works will be completed, and will form a most interesting scene of industry. THE NEW COLLECTOR OF THE CUSTOMS.—SamueI Price Edwards, Esq., late collector of the Customs at Dublin, has been appointed collector in the port of Liverpool, in the place of Elias Arnaud, Esq., who retires into private life, after hold ing the responsible office of collector in this port for the long period of thirty-two years. We can only .hope that the new collector may discharge his duties in the same courteous and liberal spirit as his predecessor, and so earn the same feelings of public respect which will accompany Mr. Arnaud into his honourable retirement. How GOLD WATCHES Go AT THE RACES.—During the three days of the races last week, several gentlemen, more adventurous than prudent, were relieved of their gold watches, while enjoying the "sports of the turf." We have heard of two having been taken on Wednesday, and four upon Thurs day:-: On the latter day a sagacious gentleman went into a booth and agreed to play a game at cards for £5. He pru dently placed his watch on the table to note time. When the game was up the watch had disappeared, along with his companion. In an hour or two afterwards the owner of the watch met the individual who had taken it, and charged him with the robbery. He entreated the owner not to expose him, but to let them go into a booth close by, and he would give it up. Here, however, the fellow stated that he had not got the watch on him, but he would make a purchase of it, and gave the accuser £lO. The owner refused this, however, and sent out for a policeman. In the meantime a number of the sharper's friends crowded round the booth, and jostled so that he effected his escape.—la another case, where a gentle.. man reported that he had lost his watch, it was found by a police-officer on the ground close by. DISGRACEPVL TREATMENT OF TOWN MISSIONARIE?..— There are some men who have not the slightest degree of reverence or respect for those who labour in the Cause of religion, but iu a most disgraceful manner insult and annoy them. On Friday, on the racecourse at Aintree, an occur rence took place which ought to draw down on those who committed the outrage condign punishment for their improper behaviour. Several of the Liverpool town missionaries, during the first two days of the races, had taken advantage of the immense concourse of people to circulate tracts, and to make remarks entirely uncontroversial in tendency. On Friday morning, at eleven o'clock, they were again pursuing their labours, when some parties, who bore the appearance of officials on the course, induced the police-officiers to attempt to remove them by force. The missionaries very properly refused to go, and the police did not interfere further in the matter. About two o'clock, however, a gang of men, who had no doubt been organised for the purpose, fell upon the mis sionaries, threw two of them over the rails of the course, knocked down a third with a stone, and cut another on the temple very severely. The proceedings of the missionaries were of the most unobnoxious character possible. MAJOR GBEIG AND THE ORANGEMEN.—WiIIiam Harkness and James Hampton were brought up at the Police-court, on Friday, under thefollowing circumstances : —Police- officer Leahy stated that he was on duty the previous day in Wavertree-road, when he observed the prisoner Harkness coming over the bridge; he had an orange flag in his hand and was wearing an orange sash; they took him into custody, fearing a breach of the peace would be committed. In Paddington a mob col lected, and he was assaulted; the prisoner Hampton wasin the mob, and he attempted to rescue the other prisoner. —Major Greig was in attendance in court, and said he was much pleased to bear testimony to the good conduct of the:Orange men on the previous day. He had had communications with the officers of the Orange lodges, and he was assured by them that eVeFy measure wouldbe taken on their parts to preserve the peace of the town, and he had been informed that very stringent resolutions had'been passed in the lodges, with heavy fines attached, to any one offending. He was glad to say it had saved his men fromlong and harassing duties, which they would have had to undergo had it not been for -each precau tions. Under these circumstances, he would recommend the prisoners to the merciful consideration of the bench, as he did not wish to press the charge against them.—Mr. Mansfield said it was evident there was no disposition on 'the part of the authorities to interfere with them, so long as they conducted themselves in a proper manner ; but they must be well aware that it was necessary for their own safety, as -well as that of others, that the quiet of the town should not be disturbed. LIVERPOOL AND BIRKENHEAD DOCK Bums.—The select committee appointed by the House of Lords to try the merits of the Birkenhead and Liverpool Docks (Trust Property of Birkenhead Dock Trustees) Bill, add the Liverpool Docks Bill, met in the Painted Chamber of the House of Lords, on Wednesday, the Marquis of Winchester in the chair. The other members of the committee were the Earl of Pontefract, Lord Colchester, Lord Faversham, and Lord Portman. Mr. Serjeant Wrangham opened the case for the first bill, which he explained to the committee as having been much considered in the House of Commons. The object of the bill was to enable the docks at Birkenhead and Liverpool to be united under one general manazement, a measure which would secure great public advantages in more respects than one. The learned sergeant went. at length into the arrangement which has been made for paying off the creditors of the Birkenhead. property.—Mr. Ewart, the ex-Deputy-Chairman of the Bir kenhead Docks, Mr. Tollemache, M.P. for South Cheshire, and Captain Evans, Acting Conservator of the Mersey, gave evidence in support of the amalgamation, believing that it Ivould greatlylaenefit the trade and commerce of the country generally, and Liverpool, Lancashire, and Cheshire in particu lar.—Evidencemas then put in as to the financial condition of the Birkenhead Dock Trust and the Birkenhead Dock Com pany. This evidence was called for by Mr. James, Q.C., who, with other learned counsel, appeared for the opponents of the bill.; but similar evidence was given over and over again in the Commons,- and, therefore, it is unnecessary to repeat it. The opposition• came from Messrs. Gandy, -Bibby and others, who object ta the arrangement which give... set of c,editocrs a preference over the others. Mr; Edward James, Q.C., Mr. Johnson ml of the opk.o nents.—The ease being closed for the promoters of the bill, Mr. Johnson addressed the committee for Mr. Gandy, con tending that the bargain for the transfer of Birkenhead was a very bad one, and that his client ought to be relieved from its obligations. This closed the proceedings, as no witnesses were called by the opposers of the bill; and Mr. James, who appeared for Mr. Lawton, did not addressthe committee. GENERAL INTELLIGENCE. TKE whole of-the property and effects of Sir J. D. Paul is to be brought to the hammer on the 23rd of the present month. GOVERNMENT has resolved on forming an encampment at Stirling for four or five regiments of militia. Dundee Advertiser. Ix accordance with a new arrangement, a messenger is to leave London for the seat of war every Saturday instead of Friday.. Tuz SUNDAY 'BEER BILL.—The Select Committee on the Sunday Beer Bill •met on Tuesday, when ,several London magistrates were examined, all of whom objected to the bill in its present shape, and advised important alterations. Teas ease of Strahan, Paul, and Bates was again heard at Bow-street Police-offiee, on Wednesday, when the prisoners were further remanded for another week. Application for bail was made, but refused. DECIMAL COlNAGE. — Government, says the Times, are stated to have resolved upon appointing a commission to in quire into the subject of decimal coinage, to be,ccmposed of Lord Monteagle, hfr. - Hubbard, and Mr. Norman. Mr. RIISSE'LL - GURNEY and Mr. O'Malley have given their opinion that under the act 52 Geo. 111. cap. 166, =embers of the Church of England, as well as dissenters, may protect themselves from penalties by registering their housos as places of religious worship, in compliance with the terms of -the act. MRS. ISABELLA SPRAINGER, wife of Mr. M. Sprainger, of Ramsey, Isle of Man, and who had been residing for some time past with her sister at Laxey, committed suicide, on Monday last, by suspending herself from a beam in the bed room. EDIT TUE STAFFORDSHIRE SESSIONS, last week, a man and woman were charged with stealing £7O from a horse dealer at a fair at Leek. The man, who was acquitted, had been in gaol sixteen times within ten years ; and the woman, who was sentenced to fourteen years' penal servitude, had been in prison eight times. A COLLISION occurred on Tuesday evening, near the Rose grave station of the East Lancashire Railway, and a short distance from Burnley, occasioned by a passenger train from Accrington to Colne running into a goods train. The van of the luggage train and a waggon, loaded with iron, were smashed to pieces, but no serious personal injury was sustained. FATAL QUARREL IN AN AaIEBICAN SHIP AT BALACLAVA. —From a letter received from Balaclava, on the 26th ult., we learn that a tragedy, attended with fatal results, occurred on board the American ship Arlington. One of the men, in an altercation with the mate, struck him, when the latter armed himself: ith a pistol, and discharged its contents into the chest of the unfortunate man. This wanton abuse of power occurred at an anchorage where there were upwards of fifty sail to render assistance in case of mutiny. FEARFUL THUNDERSTORM.—On Tuesday afternoon Not tingham and the immediate neighbourhood were visited by a terrible thunderstorm, which lasted for nearly three hours, raging during that time with remarkable violence. The rain fell in torrents, accompanied by hailstones of a very large size. The storm commenced about three o'clock, and con tinued, with very little intermission, until six. In Bilbie street, and in other parts of the town walls were washed down, and considerable damage done. A great amount of damage has been sustained in the fields contiguous to the river Trent, by the loss of stock, &c. There has not been so great a fall of rain for some time past. ORDER OF AFFILIATION ON A ROMAN CATHOLIC PRIEST. —The County Justices in Quarter Sessions were on Wednes day occupied at Durham in hearing an appeal made by the Rev. Richard Singleton, a Roman Catholic priest, against an order made against him by the borough magistrates of that town for the support of an illegitimate child. The mother is Miss Beatrice Jane Jones, the daughter of a Church of Eng. land clergyman residing at Douglas, Isle of Man. Various proceedings have taken place in the case, but the result of the investigation on Wednesday was that the county magistrates confirmed the previous order, directing Mr. Singleton to pay 2s. ed. per week during 13 years for the maintenance of the child. A STATEMENT has been issued by Mr. James Low, from which it appears that the shipments of specie from England to India, China, Egypt, and Malta for the half year just ended have been £2,614,006, of which, £396,847 consisted of gold, and £2,117,169 of silver. As compared with the cor responding half of 1864, this shows an increase of £140,992, although the total export was then unusually large. The proportion of gold, however, is smaller in the present return. The sum inclUded in the aggregate total as having been sent to China this half year is £833,466, of which all but £140,524 was silver. In the first six months of 1864 the total sent to China was £1,289,548. The recent augmentation in the ship ments to the East, has, therefore, been caused exclusively by the Indian demand. NEWSPAPERS FOR THE BRITISH COLONIES AND FOREIGN COUNTRIES.—The following notice has been issued from the General Post-office :—" Many newspapers for British colonies and foreign countries having been posted unpaid,. contrary to the Printed Instructions, No. 45,1855, recently issued upon the subject, the Postmaster-General thinks it necessary to repeat the intimation that a postage (the amount of which can be ascertained by an inspection of the notice No. 45, at any post-office) is now required to be pre-paid, in addition to the newspaper stamp, upon all newspapers sent to the British Colonies, and upon those sent to all foreign countries except the following, namely,—France or Algeria, Belgium Prussia rid Belgium, and any foreign country (except Turkey) rid Belgium and Prussia, New Granada, Peru. Any newspapers which may be posted without the requisite pre-payment, can not be forwarded to their destination," , OL STANDARD. PINNOCIC, who murdered the old man at Rothwell, last week, has been tried and convicted at Northampton, and sen tenced to death. ONE hundred and two walking sticks were last week sold, among the miscellaneous effects or a gentleman, recently de ceased, at Lancaster. GRAIN TRADE IN THE DANUBE.—Letters from Constanti nople to the 28th of June report the arrival there, during the preceding five days, from Brailow and Galatz of as many as 91 cargoes of grain, and the departure for those and other Danubian ports, to load similar cargoes, of 'no less than 53 other vessels. !V EVESHAM ELECTION: A UNIVERSAL REPRESENTATIVE.— The nomination took place on Wednesday at the Town-hall ; Mr. Holland was the only candidate, the two others having previouslyretired. Mr. Holland was declared duly elected. In returning . thanks he said he was for a vigorous prosecution of the war, and not only of the war, but of everything right and just, whether at home or abroad. He was not a member for any particular class of politicians, but for every class, for every elector, and every non-elector, DISTRESSING OCCURRENCE. — Two young ladies, the daugh ters of J. H. Rees, Esq., of Carmarthen, were bathing, on Saturday, on the shore, near their father's house, when, having ventured too far, they sank in a pool about ten feet in depth. Their governess, who was with them, rushed to their rescue, and, failing to save, died with them. Mr. Rees was hastily summoned from a meeting which he was attending at the church, and on coining out, the first objects which met his gaze were the lifelessbodies of his children and governess, which were being borne along to his house. REPRESENTATION OF THE CITY'.—We understand that a movement is now being made, with the view of gettieg up a requisition, calling on Lord John Russell and Baron Rothschild to resign their seats for the city. The, ground on which Lord John is to be called on to resign is, that he grossly misrepre sents the sentiments of his constituents on the question of the war ; while the reason which is to be urged for the resignation of the Baron, is, that he does not represent them at . all. There is, we are assured, a large and influential party ,in the city, who are determined that it shall be hereafter efficiently represented in the House of Commons.—Advertiser. EXTRAORDINARY ESCAPE OF THE CREW OF A STEAIiTUG AT SHIELDS.—The Welsh, a tug steamer belonging to Sun derland, brought a foreign schooner into Shields from sea on Tuesday, and after seeing her moored, the master of the steamer went on board the schooner to get his towage. He had not been on board the schooner above a minute, and the other two men belonging to her were standing forward in the steamer, when her boiler exploded with fearful violence. In an instant it blew everything in the cabin to pieces, and forced out the stern and after deck. The boat immediately sank, but, strange to say, the two men were rescued without having sustained the least injury. The steamer has since been raised, and it is found that her engine is all twisted and de stroyed.__ THOSE who have implicit faith in the universal " honour of the English Tradesman," and a fortiori of " the British Banker," may be surprised to hear a story which is current in 'commercial circles, and is as well authenticated as it is gene rally believed. A highly-respected London banker, on his death-bed, called his.children round him, and asked them if they believed in his reputed wealth ? They answered that they shared the general opinion as to his large fortune, and he then surprised them by the assurance that he had been insolvent for the last thirty years. He, however, entreated them not to be depressed by the intelligence; but recom mended them to go to Doctor's Commons immediately after his decease and swear his property under half a million. The advice was taken. The customers of the house were agreeably edified on hearing of the enormous wealth of the late partner, and the bank was firmer than ever, in the opinion of those who trusted their money to its keeping. THE STOLEN £5OO -NOTE.—A communication has been received from one of the jury who were supposed to.have given a verdict for the plaintiff in the Court of Common Pleas, at Guildhall, on Tuesday last, in an action brought on behalf of M. St. Paul, a moneychanger in Paris, against the- Bank -of England, to recover a £5OO bank note, forming one of those stolen from Messrs. Brown; Shipley, and Co., to the effect that the jury -.did not intend to express, and had by no means arrived at a conclusion favourable to the right of the plaintiff. The feelingof a large portion of them, at least, is stated to have been that M. St. Paul, having received notice of the robbery, and liming wilfully disregarded it, or, at all events, having adopted no steps to give effect to it, could not be considered to have-taken the-note-hostel fide. The question is one of so much moment as to make it important that the law should not be settled on a misunderstanding of the intention of the jury, and 'hence it is deemed -essential that their views Should be ascertained on the point more clearly than appears to have been possible in the hurried manner in which their verdict was taken.— Timer. POLICY OF PnrssrA.—According to the Berlin correspond ent of the Times, the opinion prevalent in that capital is "that the Prussian Royal Family and the Court are bound hand and foot, and sold body and soul to Russia." He adds : " The before-mentioned view is based on the fact of a Prussian Princess being the consort of the Emperor of Russia who was reigning at the time of this conflict being brought about by him, on the very strong presumption of there being a power ful party at Court here imbued with Russian sympathies, and the patent factthat Prussia has not openly and actively joined ua in the struggle against Russia. The three facts are cor rect, but the_imputed cause of Prussia's policy is incorrect; there are so many perfectly valid reasons, military, financial, political, and economical, to withhold Prussia from taking a forward part in the war, however convinced King, Ministers, and people may be of the necessity of profiting . by the present opportunity of •asserting the independence of the country; that we have no need to suppose feelings of brotherly affection on the part of the King, or political sympathies for Russia on the part of certain members of the Court, to have been more than subordinate accessories in determining the course that Prussia "has hitherto:taken." ANECDOTE or THE QUEEN.—A few days ago, in the beautiful little cemetery of Rose Bank, our attention was directed to a handsome monument of Aberdeen granite, having the following inscription in letters of geld:—" Sacred to tno memory of Miss Ida Deno.uorai, tine foltlAful esteemed dresser of Queen Victoria, who departed this life October 15, 1804, in the thirty-seventh year, of her age, be loved and respected by all who knew her. This stone has been placed' by Queen Victoria as a mark of her regard." On inquiry we found that one day, whether in the autumn of 1.-864 or at a former period we were not told, when Miss Be nanomi was accompanying Queen Victoria in her morning walk on Arthur's Seat, she called her Majesty's attention to the beautiful cemetery in the distant valley, and expressed a wish that when she died she might be buried there. Last year, when her Majesty was going north, Miss Benanomi, who, as usual, was attending her royal mistress, became in disposed in Holyrood Palace, and was unable to proceed fur ther. By order of Her Majesty, Miss Benanomi was attended by an eminent physician, but she never recovered, and died in Holyrood Palace. Her Majesty was deeply affected by the death, and, remembering the wish of Miss Benanomi, ordered the remains to be buried in Rose Bank Cemetery, and the monument with the inscription quoted to be erected to her Memory.—Caledonian Mercury.—[Rose Bank Cemetery is in a suburb immediately to the south of Edinburgh.] A REMARKABLE MAN.—This city is now the home of one of the most remarkable men of the age—a man who has tra versed the civilized globe, and established in almost every country which he has visited the sale of his medicines for the relief of human suffering, and which are a certain cure for disease in all its forms. We allude to Professor Thomas Holloway, of London. It is now several years since this benefactor of the human race first proclaimed to the world, through the British press, that he had, after deep research, pre pared a remedy that was sure to eradicate disease. Years of patient investigation into the laws of human physiology which control our bodies in health and when diseased, led to the in vention and preparation of the world-renowned Holloway's Pills and Ointment. Nearly, if not quite, one half of the haman race have taken his medicines ! His name is as uni versally known over the globe as that of Alexander, Napoleon, or Washington, when in the height of their ambitious career. If they conquered nations on the field of battle, Professor Holloway has, with no weapon but that of science, conquered disease in all its forms. His meritorious career is bounded by no imaginary lines of latitude and longitude short of those marking the confines of civilization itself. No isolated country or nation was sufficiently extensive for the operation of his enterprising and gigantic intellect. Wherever disease has a residence, there he has penetrated with his medicines, and left an enviable and enduring reputation. After enlightening Europe, his fame spread over Asia, and the civilized portions of Africa, and finally appeared in America. He has translated the cures he has performed, and the virtues of his medicines, into as many languages as the missionaries have the Bible. GOvernments, otherwise the most despotic, have been forced by the great value of his medicines, and their popularity with the people, to remove antiquated and time-honored restrictions upon the introduction of foreign medicines, and open their custom houses to a free introduction to the Pills and Oint ment, of this distuingished man. Empires and kingdoms removed the barriers of ages against the introduction and sale of proprietary or patent medicines, and freely permitted Hollo way's medicines to become the physician of the masses.—New York Dispatch. TRIAL ROR MOBBING AND RIOTING.—At the High Court of Justiciary, Edinburgh, on Monday last, four young men were placed at the bar charged with mobbing and rioting, and with assault and injury to property, at Greenock, on the of April last, on which occasion a large mob assembled in front of the Roman Catholic Chapel there, beat in the doors with a large beam. broke the windows with Avn., anti couunlited other damage to the chapel, as well as to the school and the adjoin ing dwelling-houses of the priest and teacher. In sum ming up the evidence, the Lord Justice-General laid down the law as to participating in or giving countenance to riotous acts. He said,—" All those who were in- the mob and who took an active part in it were guilty of the whole proceedings of that mob generally. The jury returned a verdict of guilty of mobbing and rioting against the prisoners, but not of participating in the acts of assault and injury libelled, The Lord Justice-General, after stating that the Court were disposed, from extenuating circumstances in each case, to treat the prisoners with leniency, said,—" You must not suppose that you are punished because of the particular object you had in view, as being connected with any following out of the religious opinions which you yourselves entertain in opposition to those of the persons whose property was to be sacrificed by these proceedings. It is not because you entertain particular opinions , or because with zeal, that we are going to ris it because of any yproounmonanincetaian sentence opuipnoinyoin it particular favour to the religious opinions of those whose property has been assailed. In this country all parties, all subjects of the Queen, all who are residing within the range of the laws, are amenable to the laws, and entitled to the protection which they afford. We know no distinction of religious parties in any question of this kind. In this country all persons are entitled not only to enter tain what religious opinions they please, but to profess those opinions, and to worship according to their own faith, whatever it may be. Be they Jews or Gentiles, Pagans or Christians, Papists or Protestants, Episcopalians or Presbyterians, it is all the same. The law says that they have a right to worship after their own fashion, and that law will protect them in the exercise of this right. Therefore you must 'not suppose, and no persons must suppose, that we enter into the religious question here ; but while we hear rumours of persecutions for religious opinions in other countries, and are inclined to sympathize with the sufferers, and to feel indigna tion at the conduct of the oppressors, it would be very wrong indeed if in this country which boasts of being a land of liberty, where persons are entitled to freedom of conscience without any restraint, except that which conscience itself imposes, any proceeding which involves violence against parties on account of their religious opinions should be permitted to go unpunished. While the law permits them to have liberty, those who administer the law must take care that that liberty is pre served to them, and not abused by the strong. It is because you have violated that law, and for no other reason, that we now pronoun& sentence of imprisonment upon you." His Lordship then sentenced three of the rioters to six, and one to , three months' imprisonment, MR. BERKELEY has been returned for Cheltenham by a majority of 682 over Mr. Ridler. ON Friday evening a lomotive engine, employed on the North London • Railway, exploded; but though it destroyed some property, no persons were injured. THE COLONIAL SECRETARYSHIP.—Tnn Advertiser says Sir William Molesworth and Sir George Grey are spoken of for the colonial vacancy. The Herald says Mr. Vernon Smith, Sir Wm. Molesworth, and Lord Harrowby are mentioned. THE QUEEN, accompanied by Prince Albert, the King of tha Belgians, the Count de Flanders, the Prince of Wales, and Prince Alfred, attended by their suite, left Buckingham Palace on Tuesday, for Osborne. DURING a debate in the House of Lords last week, no little sensation was caused by the entry into the house of Sir - Au gustus Clifford, bearing on his arm the celebrated Miss O'Neill, now Lady Wrixon Becher. • THE Advertiser states that a meeting of Conservative members of the House of Commons took place on Saturday, at Mr Disraeli's. The attendance was very numerous, and never was the feeling of the party more cordial and unani mous as to the course to be pursued by it. THE SPECIE' arrivals during theweek have been moderate, and do not amount to £185,000. The exports of which we have any notification are little more than £60,000, but the shipments to the Continent by the bullion merchants have been considerable. ON Tuesday morning the corning -house at Messrs. Curtis and Harvey's Clyde Gunpowder Mills, Glenlean,' about five miles from Dunoon, blew up with a fearful explosion, by which casualty the lives of not fewer than four men have been lost. COLONEL FLEURY, the colonel of the French Guides, has married Mad'lle Calais St. Paul, a daughter of a rich homme d'affaires of Paris. On this occasion the Emperor made the colonel the munificent present of 500,000 franks from his private purse, and also settled a pension of 12,000 franks a-year, to make things pleasant, to a lady who went down on her knees to supplicate his Majesty to prevent the marriage. MILITARY DISTURBANCE.—The town of Chatham, on Thursday evening, exhibited a scene of military riot, between the marines and sailors against the 27th regiment. Several of the soldiers were wounded in the affray, and one man was so severely injured that he was taken to the hospital, having received three bayonet wounds. ___ SCA.ELATINA. IN THE ROYAL HOUSEHOLD AT OSBORNE.— Their Royal Highnesses Princess Louisa and Prince Arthur have been attacked with scarlatina. Their Royal Highnesses are going on very favourably. The same disease has declared itself in his Royal Highness Prince Leopold, who was left at Buckingham Palace in consequence of a slight accident. THE PRESIDENCY OF THE UNITED STATES.—The work for the next Presidental election has seriously commenced. The political events have sharply defined the three great par ties of the campaign, and the champion of each for the suc cession. These three parties are—the American party, the Seward anti-slavery coalition party, and the Democratic party ; and the candidate of each, as broadly foreshadowed by these late events, is, of the American party, George Law, of New York; of the Seward coalition party, W. H. Seward, of New York; of the Democratic party, Henry A. Wise, of Virginia. THE GRIND STAND AT. AINTREE RACE-COURSE - was, during the late meeting, entrusted to the care of Mr. Morrish, of the Merchants' Dining Roams, Lancaster-buildings, Tithe barn-street. The care and judicious attention bestowed on the cuisine and the cellar were such as called forth the warmest encomiums from the numerous visitors ; while the orderly and ready service bestowed on the guests reflected the highest credit on the skill and assiduity of Mr. Morrish as a caterer for even the most refined tastes. Every delicacy was to be 'et with in ready profusion, and the more substantial elements of good cheer were served with equal alacrity and abundance. The wines and liquors of all kinds were excellent, and met general approval. THE DANUBE.-A letter from Bucharest of the 3d, in the German Journal of Frankfort, says :—" The Ottoman troops are still advancing into the Dobrudscha. From 1,200 to 1,500 Turks from Silistria have passed the Danube in boats, and landed at Kalarasch. Although the Turkish corps now in the - Dobrudscha are sufficiently provided .with bridge equipage, and is supported by a flotilla, and, although the coast of Bes sarabia is only defended by about 10,000 Russians, yet it is not expected that the Muchir Ismail Pasha has any present intention of attacking the Russians. He appears inclined to wait for the fall of Sebastopol, in which case he would doubt less be supported by some allied troops. The greatest com mercial activity prevails on the Lower Danube. It is calculated that, since the opening of the navigation, more than 500 vessels, of which 200 were Austrian, have taken on board cargoes at Ibrail and at Galatz." . _ flit LATE CAPTAIN Lroxs.—The enclosed extract from a letter from one of the officers of the Miranda may be interest ing to our readers:—" Tlaerapia, June 25.—Our brave Captain is no more. His wound was mortal, and he died on Saturday night. C— was with him the whole time, and S--= - = says his death was worthy of his life. He forgot nothing, sending messages to each of us individually, and arranging for the smallest trifles. He said to C--, ' I die '.s a captain of a man-of-war ought to die.' The navy has lost its greatest ornament ; and we have lost one who, to us, was more than a friend. He was so brave, so great,' so good,'and so amiable, that we all loved him much snore than we knew. We buried him on Monday evening, the 26th of June, with all naval honours. Crowds of people of high rank attended Isis funeral. The head of our figurehead, Miranda, was shot away almost at the same moment. that our dear captain received his death wound. FIRE AT ILITECIERFORD-MARKET.—On Sunday evening considerable alarm was caused in the vicinity of Hungerford market, London, in consequence of a fire breaking out on the wharf of the market, occasioned by some boys accidentally emptying their pipes on a waggon laden with straw. On the sudden outbrezk messengers were despatched for the Chandos street, Watling-street, West of England, and various other engines, which promptly arrived, and speedily got to work, with a good supply of water from the mains of the New River. The wind blowing strongly, the flames spread with amazing rapidity, and five carts and one waggon belonging to Mr. Mil igan, hay and strawdealer opposite the booking-office, on the wharf, as well . e Mr. T. kiendersua'3 cavts; speedily ignited. The firemen worked most strenuously, and by dint of great perseverance the flames were subdued, but not until the straw and carts were nearly destroyed. LORD Jorm Rus - sr.r.L.—Lord John Russell is no longer a member of the Administration. In consequence of repre sentations from some of the members of the Government in the House of Commons as to the difficulty under which they laboured with regard to the motion of Sir E. B. Lytton, his lordship came to the resolution of removing their embarrass ment by retiring from the Ministry. Accordingly, at his re quest, Lord Palmerston yesterday acquainted the Queen with the resolution to which Lord John had come, and her Majesty was pleased to accept his resignation. No successor to Lord John Russell as Secretary of State for the Colonies has been appointed, but it is not improbable that one will be desig nated for her Majesty's approval at the Cabinet Council to be held this afternoon. We cannot, of course, speak with cer tainty upon the subject, but we believe it is not unlikely that the new Colonial Secretary will be taken from amongst the present members of the Cabinet, and we apprehend that his fitness for the post will be at once recognized by the country and the colonies.—Globe, of Saturday. THUNDERSTORM ON SATURDAY.—ShortIy after 6 o'clock on Saturday morning, the metropolis was visited by a violent thunderstorm, which continued for nearly an hour. The lightning was of a vivid character. The rain fell in torrents, and many of the small streets at the east end of London were flooded for several hours. The market gardeners' grounds were also inundated, and considerable damage was done by the great fall of rain. At Bristol the storm took place an hour or two previously. It commenced about half-past three o'clock, and exceeded in violence anything of the kind that has occurred in that city for the last 30 years. The thunder was very violent, and the lightning so vivid that the Captains of African and Indian ships in the port describe it as being the nearest approach to a tropical tornado that they ever witnessed in this country. Considerable damage was done by the hail, which beat the wheat down in all the surrounding country, and broke thousands of panes of glass; and at St. George's,Gloucestershire,the electric fluid struck a house near the Don John's-cross, destroyed the chimneys, and split the house from the roof to the basement story. SUNDAY DISTITEBANCES IN LONDON. HYDE-RAIZ/K.— The Sunday demonstrations in this park are unmistakably dying out, and in another week or two there will be no trace left of the commotion. On Sunday the number of people assembled showed a decided falling off, and the more respectable classes held themselves carefully apart from the crowds of urchins and thieves who had collected. Of course, they did all in their power to get up a disturbance, rushing hither and thither, making as much noise as possible, and scurrying away as soon as they came in collision with the police. Beyond a con siderable amount of pocket-picking very little mischief was done, and the number of offenders taken into custody tended powerfully to check the disposition to riot. The police did not show in the park itself, but at the different outlets and in the neighbourhood they were mustered- in ample force, while a mounted patrol kept up with the quick movements of the mob, and prevented any serious injury to property being at tempted. No carriages appeared in the drive, so that no fa cilities existed for getting up a disturbance, and we may fairly hope that next Sunday afternoon the park will present its usual peaceable aspect. Two attempts were made by the rabble to penetrate into Belgravia from Albert-gate, but both were promptly repulsed by the police, and the ringleaders ar rested. STATE OP THE MORMON COMMUNITY.—The Cambridge 0h.•. ,,, ; , 1. Rives a letter from Salt Lake City by a woman who bad embraced tile ‘ l .lmign. and left that neiolbour hood. The expose speaks for itseir and Mormonism in the old country are two entirely distinct systems. You know not whom to trust; in fact, you are sus picious of everybody, and everybody suspects you. Human life is of no value here ; cutting throats is as carelessly talked of from the stand as clipping your finger-nails ; indeed, if they consider you becoming at all disaffected to their principles, it is considered doing you a kindness to kill you, that your soul may be saved. It is heresy to think of leaving the, society ; and should any make the attempt, every obstacle is thrown in their way. Scandal and lies the people fatten on. I would defy the smallest village in the world to propagate the same with more avidity than this people. A woman's character is taken away by the slightest breadth ; you are at everybody's mercy, no matter how low, mean, or contemptible the party may be ; and woe to you should your husband be on a mission! They set husband' against wife : try to get the husband into 'plurality; and women's hearts are as ruthlessly broken as a piece of straw by bending. Divorces can be readily obtained, for from five to terrdollars ; and there exists not, I verily be lieve, as I believe in a God, a more miserable, broken-hearted, canwor work Utah. There is no employment by which a delicate woman t s h i c o k s e e n w e d h , o sp d i r r a i g t eosus outset o m f s e o r n a i b e n l ono o x t i h s t e o f n a c c e e o in f t t li k e i s earth v e r t t o h b a l n e supportinthe l herself, ots aod though gardens, all plant,are expected sozii elp tot shear a s r o ; sheep,they unload hay, chop wood, make shoes , t ailor, make soa p , candles, molasses, feed pigs, milk cows , raise cak es, hoe p otatoe s , cut corn, irrigate the land, raise babies (one in twenty-seven months is the allotted time), besides attending to the no less essential points in a house, viz., washing, scrubbing, and cook ing; the latter item is by no means an unimportant one in a Yankee household, as Yankee Doodle must have tea three times a day, and hot bread at each meal. The United States sent out a detachment of men in the fall, ostensibly en route to California, but really to investigate the many crying atroci ties in this horrible place. There has been a slight intermix ture with the officers and our people in society; but I think Brigham was afraid of their influence, and at once, without any preliminiaries, they were denounced from the stand in the most bitter terms ; and so general was the insult that the commanding officers ordered the United States flag to be taken down. Happy as 'I should be to save others from the degrada tion and misery of this evil place, I dare not have my name known, or my head would pay the forfeit ; and they would think they were doing God and me service. Although I have lost all desire for life, I should dread falling into their hands; for verily the tortures of the Inquisition were nothing to those they inflict here, and in the end I should be consigned to a horrible decapitation."

THE INCUMBENCY of GR_E.AT 01?0SBY, IN the York Ecclesiastical Court on Tuesday, the case of Myers v. Clarke was heard. Mr. Blanchard was advocate, and Mr. Mills proctor for the promoter, and Mr. Shepherd was advocate, and Messrs. Lawton, sen., and W. Lawton, were proctors for the defendant. This suit was brought by letters of request from the diocese of Chester, the office of the judge being promoted by John Myers, Esq., of Crosby-house, Great Crosby, near Liverpool, against the Rev. Joseph Clark. of Lunt, in the parish of Sefton, in Lancashire, of which parish he is now curate, under the Rev. R. Rainshaw Roth we ll ; the rector, and had been so for twenty-five years. From the statement of Mr. Blanchard, it appeared that Mr. Clarke had been presented to the incumbency of Great Crosby, and that rumours having reached the ears of Mr. Myers, one of the principal inhabit an t s o f th a t p l ace, respect i ng Mr. ark's alleged propensity for intoxicating liquours, he felt it his duty to bring the matter before the court. It had been admitted that the clerk, Thomas Williams, had a public-house, near the church-yard, and that the custom had been for the clergy man to go there before and after christenings and funerals, and take a glass of spirits, or something of that kind. A general charge was made, and particular instances were ad duced by the witnesses in which, during the years 1853 and 1854, the defendant was said to have been in a state of drunkenness, and had staggered to and fro. Mr. Blanshard, therefore, prayed that Mr. Clark might be canonically cor.-- rected. _ Mr. SICEPTIERD, in praying that his client might be dis missed from this suit, delivered a long address. He would say, with unbounded confidence, that whilst this was one of the most painful cases a court could investigate, it was a case in which there was not the slightest ground or foundation for the charge which had been made. He denied there was any truth in the allegation brought against the defendant, and one of the parties who had given publicity to the accusa tHinenlahma de lamented dn that deci d 3, ea fr. hi ry n e i rs nrY ha t cl hove not applied to the tYfd lii n s a b; to have a commission appointed to inquire into this matter, by which an enormous expense and great delay might have been avoided, and he also regretted that Mr. Myers had not done something by way of atonement for the charge which had been preferred. Mr. Shepherd then went through the whole of the evidence, noticing the great amount of testimony there was to rebut the accusation of intemperance, besides that of the defendant himself, and to prove that, except at the christening of his eldest child, when he became, unintention ally, a little elevated, he had invariably being an abstemious and temperate man. It was also shown he was a zealous, amiable, and kind-hearted man—a man, as one of the witnesses described it, in whom there was no guile —a man who was generally loved and esteemed in his parish —a man in whose religious teaching his parishioners had confidence, and one who was constant in his attendance upon the sick. He was a person, however, of a curious and staggering gait whilst walk ing, which might give rise to the impression that he was in liquor when he was perfectly sober, and he frequently had a swimming in the head after he had been preaching. He had likewise a scorbutic affection in the face, which did not arise from drinking. These circumstances might have given the witnesses a colourable reason for having fallen into the mis take which they had done. _ Mr. Blanshard having replied, the Chancellor, after stating his reasons at some length for having come to the conclusion he had done, dismissed the case, leaving both parties to pay their own costs. A nomination had, previous to these proceedings, been pre sented to the Bishop of Chester, through Mr. Brabner, Mr. Clark's solicitor. COURT AND FASHION.

Camden and Fuller mention this circumstance. The horn is still preserved at Pusey. AN INCIDENT TO ROYALTY.—Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent embarked from Southampton docks, on Friday, on board the Fairy, Captain Crispin. Just as her Royal Highness embarked an incident occurred which caused some little sensation and amusement. A respectably-dressed elderly gentleman, wearing a profusion of rings, evidently of great value, and carrying a cane, the top of which was set majestically that hehad wk g w a i n th gw h a u y ada al present the the ed down for Queen, which " he wished presented by her august mother." ge into precious the Fairy, stating nes Sir George Couper's attention was instantly drawn to the circumstance, who politely bowed the gentleman ashore, inti mating that he must take some other method of communicating with the Queen. The gentleman, much chagrined, retired into one of the offices of the docks, and calling - for pen, ink, and paper, hastily wrote a letter, which he declared he would immediately post to Osborne ; and, having sealed it w ith a .4.tt.

TnE QUEEN AT ALDERSHOT.—The Queen paid her first public visit to the encampment at Aldershot, on Tuesday. Her Majesty was accompanied by the King of the Belgians, the Prince Consort, and their royal highnesses the Prince of Wales and Prince Alfred. Her Majesty first drove through the Guard's quarters, and after making the circuit of this portion of the encampment, ascended the elevated plateau opposite Caesars' camp, where the whole of the troops at present en camped were drawn up in review order. After Her Majesty had passed along the line, the royal party took up a position near the flag staff, on the saluting point, while the several regiments marched past in review order.
