Total, 2,Et7 bales. c los ed ac.:OP statement makes the total for the season just United 197,845 bales, and places the quantity grown in the St 7,8 45 at 3,335,000 bales, against 3 ,175,000 last year, COTTON 13,000,000 in 1853-4, 3,360,000 in 1852-3, and 3,100,000 in 1851-2. The export to great Britain is stated at 1,921,000 bale which is scarcely a fair comparison with the amount 1,549.716 bales exported during last season, several cargoes cleared for British outports, but landed in other countries, being this year, for the first time deducted. The proper comparison with the figures given for last season would be 1,950,000 bales ; here. after the deductions will be made, and the 1,921,000 bales will be the correct comparison for the future. The consumption the past season its the United States has been 653,000 bales, against 594,000 bales last year. The trade is in a good condition, and an increase during the coming quite expected NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 13.—Receipts for the week, 11,800 bales, same week last year, 33,000. Stock on band, 21, 000 ; prices maintained. Middling., 114 c per lb. 16th.—Market unchanged. Sales to day 1,000 bales. MOBILE, Sept. l 3.—Receipts for the week, 2,400 bales ; ;ame week last year, 2,300. Middling, lOic per lb. Crop.—The accounts from the South in relation to crop ,rospects, tend to confirm the idea that in the Atlantic States it will be less than last season, while from the Southern and Southwestern section the reports are contradictory. The posi tion at this time is somewhat critical, for under a favourable continuance of suitable weather, and a late frost, the crop cannot well be estimated at over .3,300,000, while an early fros may cut it off materially, and the yield prove less than 3,000,000 bales. It is universally admitted that an early frost this year will prove very disastrous, its position being now more susceptible in this regard than for several years past. The following is a statement of the movement in cotton since the lst September last, as compared with the previous three years : 1855. 1854. 1853 the Ports Exports to Great Britain 10,0001 30,000 18,000 8.0410 4,000 19.000 6,000 17,000 1,000 1,000 1,000 other For.

Export to Liverpool, 103. Cam peachy, 6. Vera Cruz, 75. Crottenburg, 1,232. The year closed with a stock unsold not exceeding 2,500 bales, a considerable portion being low cotton of the old crop. Since then the new crop has continued to arrive very sparingly, compared with the same period last season, and most of the receipts have been taken readily as fast as sampled at very full prices generally. The total sales amount to 3,500 bales, the bulk for France, the Continent, and the north. In prices great irregularity has prevailed, but our quotations approximate to correctness, and apply exclusively to new crop, the receipts of which, we are pleased to notice, are showing a marked improvement in quality under the favourable weather which has prevailed since the storm. The business, yesterday, was at outside figures, and in some instances above them. Freight to Liverpool, 7-16 d. MOBILE : Receipts for the week ending Sept. 5, 798 bales. No foreign export. The sales this week are ❑ot as large as the receipts, amounting to only 600 bales. The demand has been mainly for grades above middling, for which our quotations are slightly raised. The very limited stock on sale and general demand prevented the Persia's news from having any influence, and we close with a steady and firm market at the annexed figures. Freight to Liverpool, 110(11. SAVANA : Receipts from Sept. 1 to Sept. 11, 2,133 bales. No foreign export. New cotton begins to arrive freely,and the market is beginning to open with animation, though sales are yet small. Merchants are preparing for a heavy business season, and our cotton mart is being considerably extended and improved, which will contribute to the demands of an increased trade. Total sales for the week, 768 bales. Freight to Liverpool, nom. CHARLESTON : Receipts for the week ending September 11, 734 bales Up. and 27 S. I. No foreign export. There has been a decided improVement in the demand this week, and a much larger business than we report would have been done but for the very limited supply on sale. The trans actions have been confined almost exclusively to new cotton, as the stock of old is exhausted, and show a rather higher range of figures than those previously reported. We cannot, however, yet give quotations, but good middling to middling fair grades are worth 111 c to 12c per lb. Freight to Liver pool, nom. WILLIAM P. WRIGHT. THE NORTHERN TIMES.---LIVERPOOL, MONDAY. BREADSTUFFe, FLOUR: State and Western—My last report was of the Bth instant, per Niagara, via Boston. We have since been in receipt of advices pet Cambria and Arabia, to 30th ult and 4th instant.

WHEAT : An active market can be reported during the past week. A good demand has prevailed for shipments to Great Britain—some purchases having likewise been made for France. Daily fluctuations in prices have been experienced ; the market closing with little animation, under the effect of the Arabia's advice!.

ASHES : Pot continues steady at 7 dols 311 c, with sales of 50 ht.'s, notwithstanding the diminished demand for export, as the receipts are lighter tha❑ for many years past at this period of the season. Pearl are steady at 7 dols 75c, and are taken on arrival. Sal _,Eratus, as for some time past, 7 cents. COAL : Liverpool is in fair supply, but quiet; 75 tons Orrel brought 9 dols 4 mos. HOPS : For new, there is a fair demand, and prices are more regular ; the sales reach 170 to 180 bales Eastern and Western at 11c to 14c—mostly 12ic ; and 50 do old, 6c to 7tc cash. METAIA : The iron market has not undergone any change, except in English merchant bars, which are dull, and can only be sold at reduced prices. 150 tons English common bars sold on private terms. Scotch pig is rather firmer, and may be quoted 30 dole cash to 31 dole 50c, 6 mos, with sales of 500 tons at 31 dole to 31 dole 50c 6 mos. We understand the market has been nearly cleared of railroad iron here and to arrive, at 65 dols to 67 dols Me. 40 tons English boiler plate brought 3c, 6 mos. Russian sheet is in good demand, and prices tend upward. With respect to the market for copper we have to report new sheathing and yellow metal steady and firm at our nota tions. Refined ingot is quiet ; last sales of Lake Superior 251-e, 4 mos. Old copper remains scarce and wanted. There has been more doing in lead, but prices have not varied. OILS : Whale continues to be held very firmly, but the market of late has been quiet. Sperm is held at 1 dol 60c to 1 dol 65c, without sales. Linseed :has become dull, late high prices having checked consumption—nothing done from first hands—the price for American and English, in lots, from store, is 98c to 99c, cash—to arrive, in thirty days, it can be bought considerably leas. Olive is quiet, at 3 dole 311 c to 4 dole 311 c, 4 mos. Tallow oil brought 11c cash. PROVISIONS : The market for pork is a shade firmer for mess and steady for other kinds. The market for beef rules steady and the demand is moderate, with light receipt S. Prime mess beef hams remain inactive, and quotations are nominal. Cut meats aro in limited request, and the market is the turn easier. There has been some speculative movement in lard, and with a reduced stock, prices are 3o to 1c higher. Cheese is selling at 7c to 9c. RICE has continued in good demand, mostly for export, and the market is firm, especially for the good and better qualities, with sales of 1,000 tierces, at 3 dols 311 c to 4 dole 50c, cash. SALT continues in fair request, and the current receipts are readily taken at previous prices. The sales include 1,300 sacks Ashton's Liverpool fine at 1 del 474 c ; 840 do Jeffreys and Darcey's do, 1 dol 371 c ; and 1,951 do Liverpool ground, 874 c, four months. SUGAR: We notice a continued good demand from the trade and refiners, and as holders offer sparingly, prices have again appreciated one-eighth of a cent, so that they now stand five-eighths of a cent above the lowest, and one-eighth below the highest point of the season ; the arrivals of late have been modezate, and the stock has lessened some 10,000 to 12,000 hlids since first instant. Refined is in good demand, and sales are making for future delivery at the advance recently noted. TALLow : The market remains quiet, but firm ; the sales are some 30,000 to 40,000 lbs prime, in lots, at 12c cash. ToßAcco: There is a steady fair demand for most descrip tions, and the market is firm. Sales 50 hhds Kentucky at 9c to 15c ; 107 Virginia, If& to 14c; 269 bales Havana, 24c to 32c ; 114 cases seed leaf, 71c to 24c ; 61 bales Carmen, for export, 50 do Yara, and .50 do Kentucky stems, on terms we did not learn, WirAißriONz remains inactive, but is held very firmly.

FREIGHTS : The market has been generally more active, without any material change in rates ; there is more inquiry for vessels to load grain for the Continent, principally to Spanish and Portuguese ports, but they are difficult to be had for the present, even if comparatively higher rates were offered. To Liverpool the engagements include 200.000 bushels corn and wheat at 8d to 81d, closing at the higher rate ; 5,000 brls flour, 2s; 500 trci rice, 22s 6d ; 1,200 bales cotton 8d; 100 tons logwood, 17s 6cl ; 100 fustic, 15s; 500 boxes cheese, 30s ; 100 tons lard, and 30 do oil, 2.5 s ; and some Chrome ore, on private terms.

On Friday a meeting was held in the concert-room, Hanover-square, convened by the members of the Agape mone Institution, near Bridgewater, for the purpose of publicly making known the testimony of what the Lord Jesus has done to redeem the earth. The large room was densely crowded. At eight o'clock two gentlemen, not presenting any ecclesiastical appearance, acended the plat form. They were dressed in block with coloured waistcoats, and appeared to belong to what is called the higher class of society. Their names did not transpire. After a few minutes of deep silence, the elder gentleman rose and said—" You may probably have heard of Brother Prince, although you may have never seen him. Some have been so foolish as to ask whether Mr. Prince is God, or the Messiah, or the Holy Ghost. None could ask that except through foolishness or wickedness. I will tell you what brother Prince is. He was by nature a child of wrath. He is by grace a vessel of mercy. You know what a vessel is. It is that which contains or conveys something from one place to another. For instance, a jug is a vessel which contains and conveys water and milk ; a ship is a vessel which contains and conveys merchandise ; and Brother Prince is a vessel used by God to contain and convey mercy. The testimony of Brother Prince is con cerning"what Jesus Christ had done by his own person, but I cannot omit to men'ion what Jesus Christ did in Brother Prince's presence. (Ironical cheers ) Jesus Christ re deemed us from the curse of the law, bei- g made a curse for us. Here the speaker cited a number of Scripture texts on the subject of Redemption, and said that when the old law as a dispensation was fulfilled, it was superseded by him who fulfilled it; because be who fulfilled it brought in a new dispensation, namely, the gospel. In like manner Jesus Christ superseded the law, first, by fulfilling it ; and secondly, by his own authority. In like manner the Holy Ghost has superseded the Gospel, first, by fulfill ing the Gospel, and, secondly, by his own authority The Holy Ghost fulfilled the Gospel in Brother Prince. (Hisses ) You will ask me by what means. (Hear, and laughter.) It means that the Holy Ghost fulfilled in Brother Prince all that he came to be and to do, as the spirit of the Gospel dis. pensation. He found Brother Prince a child of wrath, and made him a child of grace and a vessel of mercy. The Holy Ghost, by the mouth of his servant, Brother Prince, about 11 years ago, went forth in many places in England and Wales, testifying of Jesus Christ. But as we read in the word of the Lord, " In the last days scoffers shall arise," so the message of Brother Prince was scoffed at by the professing Church. Yet did the spirit strive through Brother Prince ; it gathered from the Church and the world a people, few indeed, but washed in the blood of Jesus Christ, and waiting for his coming; and when this was done the Holy Ghost declared that the day of grace was past, that the dispensa tion was ended, that the sun of the gospel had set, and that the last ray of mercy had beamed on man. (Loud hissing.) Not so, however, with those who had been gathered out by the message of Brother Prince, for their hearts were purified, and they were no longer under the dominion of the Devil. Behold be comes, and his coming is the redemption of the world. This address was delivered with extraordinary earnestness and deliberation, amidst con siderable interruption from the hearers, and cries of" De lusion and blasphemy !" The younger of the two then rose. He carried a glass in his eye, according to the modern fashion of some young men. This at first caused great merriment, but in his address he was as earnest and as solemn as his colleague. He repeated the views previously expressed, and said the Holy Ghost in the servant of the L9rd, Brother Prince, took flesh, but such was the ignorance on this point, even in the Aga pemone itself, that the people there could not see what God had done. The flesh at first was not willing, and hence the ignorance. (A loud shout of disapprobation assailed the speaker, but he took no notice of it.) Such was the igno rance of the persons in the Agapemone that they did not see what God had done until afterwards. He had then destroyed in Brother Prince all personal consciousness, all independence, all knowledge of himself. and thus the Holy Ghost became the life of that body, and thus Jesus Christ, through the body, was enabled to carry out the purpose for which he came on earth. (Hisses.) A Voice : All this is gross blasphemy. It is worse than Mormonism, which is very bad. (Cheers.) The Speaker, who was totally unmoved by the uproar that ensued, said : I come to testify what I have seen. You are not bound to believe it. When I have told you what I know, it will be a matter between you and God. I say again in seriousness that the Holy Ghost took the flesh of a woman (loud hissea), and declare, in the presence of all assembled there (the Agapemone), that he would take flesh, and did so. It was clear that it was God who did this wonderful thing, and none other. (Loud cries of shame, shame:). A Voice : Where did he do this ? The Speaker : At the Agapemone. A Voice : When ? The Speaker About five years ago Here great laughter and liissing arose, amidst which the speaker stood unmoved, and at length said, with perfect calmness, " I will not go on if you interrupt me. God will hold you responsible for refusing to bear what I have to say." - The two speakers, having consulted together, then left the room, amidst general yelling. A Working Man then moved a resolution that the statements of the speakers were " contrary to common sense, degrading to humanity, and blasphemy towards God." This was carried with loud cheers. A Sergeant of Police then stepped forward, and good humouredly said : Now, gentlemen, the meeting is over. The meeting then separated. CAREER OF A PROFLIGATE WOMAN. A short time ago application was made to the magistrates of Durham for a warrant to apprehend William Outhwaite, joiner, of Claypath, on a charge of bigamy, in having, en the 14th of June last, married Mary Chandler, a widow, also residing at Claypath, his former wife, Lavina Jane Mason Harvey Outhwaite being then alive. It was alleged on the part of Outhwaite that the woman said to be his lawful wife had been twice previously married, and that therefore his marriage with her was invalid. Mr. Superin tendent Robison was instructed to investigate the case, and he ascertained from unquestionable testimony that the mar riage of Lavine Jane Mason with Outhwaite was at least the third matrimonial alliance which she has contracted. In December, 1844, being then of the age of nineteen, and a young woman of great personal attractions, she married a gentleman from Chiltern. On the sth of February, in the following year, while residing with her husband in Liver pool, she formed an acquaintance with a Captain George Frederick Miles, whose regiment was then stationed at Birmingham. On the 15th of February she eloped with the captain, who became so deeply enamoured of her that be subsequently obtained a marriage license, and wanted to marry her. Being informed, however, that it would be necessary to make an affidavit which might subject him to a prosecution for perjury, he entered into negotiations with Mr. Chiltern, through the medium of a third party, with a view to procuring a divorce of the lady from her lawful husband. Mr. Chiltern appeared nothing loth to acquiesce in this arrangement, and accepted money to enable him to procure a divorce from his wife ; but thinking, probably, that he was under no particular obliga tion to keep faith with a man who had robbed him of his martial rights, he, in his turn, duped the captain, and devoted the money to other purposes. The infatuated seducer, foiled in his plan of securing a divorce, afterwards embarked with Mrs. Chiltern on board a yacht, and went to the island of Jersey, where he obtained a license, and in January, 1847, she was married to him under the title et " spinster." He settled £2OO a year upon her, and likewise insured his life for £5,000 in the Royal Exchange Assurance, the policy being placed in the hands of Mr. Folkes. They continued to live together until the July following, when some disagreement took place, and a separation ensued. Captain Miles then sought to release himself from the trammels into which his extravagant folly had led him, and in January, 1849, he was finally released, in the Consistory Court, of the engagements he had entered into with his charmer. Being now left to her own resources, Mrs. Chiltern, who was then in her twenty-fourth year, succeeded in exciting the tender passion in the heart of William Outhwaite, and finally induced him to marry her. This third union was cemented in the district church of Bellerby, in the diocese of Ripon, where she is described in the marriage registry book as " spinster," and " lady." This alliance, like the two former, was soon dissevered by the fickle and inconstant disposition which the lady exhibited, and since then she has run a long career of vice and profligacy ; her last liaison that we have heard of being with a subordinate constable at Portobello. All traces of her former beauty are now fled, and riot and dissipation have effectually deprived her of her powers of enchantment. She is now living in the Flesh market Close, in Edinburgh, where Superintendent Robi son communicated with her by letter, and received a reply, of which the following is a literal copy : " Sir,--I have received yours and shall be most happey to come forward. lam Is Wife until he can prove other wise.—L. J. M. 013THWAITE.-" To Mr. Robison." The above unique gem sufficiently denotes the intel lectual character of the writer, and, bad we not ample evidence of the fact before us. we should deem it incredible that any gentleman of rank and position, holding a com mission in her Majesty's service, could have become so far infatuated as to marry such a woman, and to settle £2OO a year upon her. It is almost needless to say that the magis trates of Durham refused to grant a warrant against Outhwaite. POLICE INTELLIGENCE LIVERPOOL (BEFJRB MR. BOLTON.) GARROTTING.—WiIIiam Sinclair, Alfred Pooh, and George Holmes, were brought before Mr. Bolton, at the police court, by Detectives M'Culloch • and Bibby, on a charge of having committed a violent assault on John Jones, of 15, Pembroke Gardens, and for robbing him of his watch and some money, and also on a charge of having garotted Me. Handwell, a pupil at the Royal Infirmary, on Thursday night, in Dansie-street, and robbing hire of his watch. The prisoners are good looking young men. and were dressed in the most gentlemanly style. The facts of the case, as appeared in evidence, were as follows :—On Thursday night, Mr. Handwell was passing through Dansie-street, when he was suddenly seized by the neck, knocked down, and robbed of his watch ; and about half-past seven on Friday night, a young man, named John Jones, was passing through Heath-street, when he was suddenly seized by the neck by three men, who flung him down, and robbed him of his watch, and 3s 6d, and left him in a state of insensibility in the street. Some time after, Jones went with the officers to Lime-street, where they saw the Prisoners ' who were at once recognised by Jones - par ticularly Sinclair, as the person who robbed him. He swore most positively to the identity of Sinclair, as the person who caught him by the neck. In reply to Mr. Goodier, who was for the prisoner, the witness said, he was engaged in the snuff trade. Mr. Goodier Oh, indeed, and you appear to be up to snuff. Mr. Bolton : He has given his evidence fairly and clearly, and I do not think you are justified in using that imprOp obser- vation, sir. Mr. Goodier Oh, very well sir, 'He cross examined the witness, but could not shake his testimony. Mr. Handweli , toted that he was seized in Dansie-street, about eight o'clock on Thursday night, by three men, who near;v choke,l him, and robbed him of his watch. Pools and ilohnrs, to the best of his belief, were two of the men, although he picked them oat of seven or eight persons at the station house, yet he would not swear positively to them. Mr. Clough asked for a remand, but Mr. Goodier loudly called for their discharge. Mr. Bolton said : Why, sir, here is the clearest case of evi dence I have ever heard of, against one of the men, and the other two, no doubt, were with him, although, not positively sworn to. There is abundant evidence for me to remand them, and I think it absurd to a;li for heir discharge. I will remand them, in order to give :he officers an opportunity of looking after the watches. EXTRAOUDINARY CASE ABOUT A GOLD WATCH.-Mr. John William Hickson, of 74, St. Anne-street, charged a female, named Mary Anne limes, with having stolen his gold watch, value .£2O, and Michael Mooney, a bar man at Moss's public-house, 19, Pitt-street, was charged with having received the same, knowing it to have been stolen. The prisoners were in custody of detective officer Horn and officer 504, and the details presented some unusual features. The prosecutor said, he went into a beerhouse in Argyle-street, kept by a woman named Johnston, to get a glass of ale ; just as he entered, his bat was knocked down on his face, and he was hustled about, and his watch taken from him. Horn said, when he heard of the robbery lie went to the public-house of Mr. Henry Moss, 19, Pitt•street, where the male prisoner was barman. He asked him about the watch, when Mooney hesiiated:b7lii)en ... le;;ia that the prosecutor and the female prisoner en!ered the shop, and gave him the watch to keep. He asked if there was any one present, and the prisoner replied that Mrs. Moss was ; he went up stairs and asked Mrs. Moss the question, and she said there was no one present when the woman gave the watch to the barman, and then the female prisoner said she folded the watch un in a silk handkerchief and gave it to the man: He then took both into custody. - Mr. Goodier proceeded to cross-examine the prosecutor, and asked him—Are you sober P—that is a question. Prosecutor : I am, but it is very questionable if you are sober just at this moment. Mr. Bolton : The witness has given his evidence very correctly. He may have taken something, but these insinuations have no right to be made ; he gives his advocatepolice ef t r o formo a m c st thatxtl o'clock ts , i cli . loocuk O r Officer c nt hedre was quit qn said z evidence clearly, soberly, and f a i r l y ; i t is not quite tnh oe dproinl a t p l s i r e o h p w e e i w r t n a f e s o s r w s a l i a n t a i sober. Mr. Bolton : No doubt lie is. Mr. Goodier (to witness): Are you a married man, and where did you sleep last night ? Prosecutor : I am a married man, and slept at home, and that's more than you can say. Mrs. Johnston, the keeper of the beerhouse, was examined, and she stated that the prosecutor and the prisoner entered her house together, and at the time she said they were talking about the watch ; the guard was banging loose from the prosecutor's neck, and lie took off the watch and gave it to the prisoner, telling her to take care of it for him till morning ; he was very drunk at the time. This witness was cross-examined by Mr. Clough, and she prevaricated very much, and officer 504 and Horn swore most positively that Mrs. Johnston told them two different stories to what she now swore to about the watch, and the latter officer said she was afraid to tell the truth, as she resided in the locality of several bad houses, and got a great deal of custom from them. Mr. Bolton said he did not believe a word of what the woman had stated. It was lamentnble to see such an exhibition in a court of justice. Mr. Goodier (to the prosecutor): Then you passed the night with the female prisoner? Prosecutor: I told you, sir, I slept at home, and I now tell you, that I did not pass the night with her, nor did I ever see her to my knowledge before she was arrested. Mr. Goodier : Oh, I thought you swore so. Mr. Bolton : He swore nothing of the sort, sir, and if you were attending to the case you ought to know it • this conduct on y our p ar t i s not at all pr o per, l e t me tell you. :Mr. Goodier : I defy any jury on earth to convict them. Mr. Bolton : I don't think the evidence against the man is sufficient, and I will discharge him. Let the woman go for trial. Mr. Goodier : Then, sir, let me tell you, a jury will not convict her. Mr. Bolton : Sit down, sir, and hold your tongue. The man (Money) was then discharged, and put into the witness box, but he seemed so bewildered that he could not give a clear account of the transaction at all, and said he was so frightened by the police that he did not know what he was saying or doing. The woman was committed for trial, and Mr. Clough said lie would report the publichouses for the conduct exhibited by them on the occasion. A VOYAGE FROM THE GEORGE TO THE BELVEDERE HOTEL—A gentleman, who gave his name as James Davidson, a corn merchant from London, charged two women, named Julia Moran and Mary No wlan, with having robbed him of two £lO notes, and £ll lOs in gold. The complainant said he was spending the even ing with some friends at the George Hotel, and after having some wine there (a little too much he was free to confess,) he proceeded on his way to the Belvedere, in South Castle-street, where he was stopping. The prisoner Moran followed him from the George, and induced him to accompany her into the house of the other prisoner in Atherton street, where he was robbed of £3l lOs which he had in a small bag, such as merchants use in the corn exchange, London—the name James was stamped on the bag. He was awoke by some one pulling at his watch guard, and then lie seized the person (it was dark,) who proved to be one of the prisoners, when the other said she would go for the police, as her house was 14 hi g hly respectable," (?) and she would not allow any robbery to be committed in it. She went away, and did come back in about an hour with a policeman, but he was sure she had deposited his money in some place whilst she was away. He prevented his watch from " going," Mr. Goodier got up to cross-examine the witness, and com menced by threatening a terrible exposure on him, if he proceeded in the case ; so it would be better for him to give it up than suffer the exposure. Mr. Bolton said such conduct on the part of the advocate was highly reprehensible—no threat should be used. The witness told the " learned advocate," that he cared not a straw for him or his exposure ; his threat would not have the least influence on him, and he defied him to put any question that lie would not answer fairly. Mr. Goodier then proceeded to make the " awful exposure," which consisted in his eliciting from the prosecutor that he was now living on his own property ; that he came here on the 29th of August, and that he brought £l7O with him—this was the whole " exposure." The pri soners were remanded, as Mr. Clough said there was a chance of the money turning up—the notes being known. THE TRAVELS OF Two SCOTCH YOUTHS.—Tyvo genteel youths, apparently about 17 years of age, who gave their names as John Adams and Colin M'Cloud, were charged by Mr. John Push, an officer of the London and North Western Railway, who said at nearly one o'clock in the morning, he w as go i ng h i s rounds with his dog at the station in Lime -street, when the latter discovered the boys under the bookstand at the centre of the station. They had only 2s 8(1 in money. In reply to the magis trate, the boys said they were apprentices to an architect at Perth ; that they had got some holidays, and came to spend them in Liverpool ; that their money was spent, and then they went to the railway, thinking to go as far by that conveyance as the money would take them towards Glasgow, and then walk the remainder of the way. Mr. Clough said he believed the story of the boys, and that they did not contemplate anything wrong. They were discharged. (BEFORE MR. AMIN.) • - A DEBBv "CnicKEN."—A tall green-looking youth, named Samuel Hamersly, charged an old woman named Anne Wil son, with having stolen a sum of money from him. The comp l ainant was on hi s way to Amer i ca, having his passage paid. He went sauntering about the town, when he met with the prisoner, who robbed him of the cash, and then bolted. In reply to his Worship, the youth said the door was not locked, but fastened with a knife. A person who attends the court, and who is remark a bl e for dullness, remarked that he suppose d that was th e reason w h y t h e woman h ad " cu t:" This frightful The priso ner was reman d e d. Perpetration caused a good deal of laughter. COUNTY MAGISTRATES COURT.-SATURDAY (BEFORE MR R. THICKSTONE AND CAPTAIN ASPINALL.) JUVENILE THIEVES.—Two little girls, named Mary Williams, aged 12 years, and Mary Clayton, aged 10 years, were charged with stealing a quantity of wearing apparel. They admitted the offence, and also confessed that they had been in the habit, for a considerable time, of committing daily robberies of a like character, and of disposing of the clothes as they best could, The father of the girl 'Williams is a labourer, generally employed in Cheshire, and the father of the other prisoner is a fire man on board a steamer, their residences being in Jerry bill, Toxteth-park. A washerwotnan, named Ellen Bramble, was brought up, charged with receiving a shawl, part of the stolen property, but, as it appeared that she bad bought it, though very imprudently, from one of the children, she was discharged with a caution, the magistrates observing that her conduct in purchasing any article without enquiry, from children of such an age, was most impropar. The magistrates ordered the children to be committed to gaol for a month, and after wards to be sent to a reformatory for five years, their parents to pay for each 2s a week towards their maintenance. Ass/xi:l%—A mendicant Spaniard, named Julian De Cora, was charged with having committed a violent assault on Mr. Benjamin Scott Riley, of Walton. The prisoner was trespassing on Mr. Riley's premises, and when that gentleman was directing him from the ground, he turned round and struck him a violent blow on the temple with a stick. He was fined £5, or in default of payment, two months' imprisonment. ATTEMPT AT HIGHWAY ROBBERY. ATTACK ON A STAGE COACH. A daring and unprecedented highway robbery, resulting in the death of one person and the wounding of three others, has been made under the following circumstances : At about 4/ o'clock, p.m , as the Cimptonville stage was entering Marysville, and when near Dry Creek, it was stopped by six mounted highwaymen. The object of the assault was 100,000 dols. in charge of Messrs. Langton and Co.'s express messenger. Near the point of attack the roads fork. Mr. Rideout, dealer in gold dust at Camp tonville, was on one of the roads, and the stage on the other. Mr. Rideout was stopped by the robbers, who all presented their arms and commanded him to dismount. For a moment he hesitated, when the highwaymen threatened to shoot him. Ha then dismounted and passed towards the stage, which was on the other road on the opposite side of the ravine. The robbers then called him back and demanded his money, but being satisfied that he had none, they took his horse, and per mitted him to cross over the ravine to the stage. The highwaymen then commanded the driver of the stage, John Gear, to stop, and threatened to kill the first mar. who should attempt to oppose them in their intentions. The treasure on board the stage was in charge of Mr. Dobson, Langton's messenger. He immediately drew upon the highwaymen, and commenced firing. His first shpt struck the spokesman of the robber band, and unhorsed him. By this time Mr. Hideout had reached the stage, and an indiscriminate fire commenced between the robbers and the passengers. Forty shots, it is said, were fired on both sides. The robbers, finding themselves so strenuously opposed, retreated, leaving the passengers masters of the field. The driver of the stage, John Gear, was shot through the right arm above the elbow. Mrs. Tilghman, wile of a barber in Marysville, was shot in the head and killed, the ball entering over the right eye and penetrating the brain. John Campbell, who was also a passenger, received a glance shot over the eye. Another passenger was shot in both legs. The stage is completely riddled with bullet holes. When the stage was stopped and the firing had commenced, one white man and four Chinese passengers left it and ran back on the road, and since then they have not been seen. As the stage was about starting, and after the first party had retired, a mounted Mexican commenced firing from the opposite direction. Mr. Dobson returned his firing and unhorsed him. Two other men were also seen concealed in the thicket, who were not mounted—all members of the same gang, it is supposed. All were Americans save the one ' Mexican just mentioned.—American Paper.

SINGULAR ACCIDENT TO A FBENCH COUNTESS.—At her Chateau in Manly, recently, the Countess Charles de Fit zjames having trodden upon a Weiler match, her dress caught fire. She at once ran towards the sea, which was some distance from her residence, and her progress natu rally increased the intensity of the flame. She was severely burned, but happily her life is not in danger. PUBLIC DINNER TO MR. RUSSELL (" TILE TIMES" CRI MEAN CORRESPONDENT).—The Hayor (Mr. Andrews) and the Corporation of Southampton have invited Mr. W. H. Russell, the Tinos correspondent in the Crimea, to a public dinner, in commemoration of the valuable services he ren dered the nation by his letters from the East. Mr. Russell is on his return from Moscow, having been the representative of the leading journal at the coronation of the Czar. THE Mooßs.—Positively nothing is doing on the moors. The sportsmen, tired of travelling the hills without getting a shot, are going south in considerable numbers, and, after the northern meeting of the week, the Highlands will be emptied/of the greater portion of their visitors. , Smile of the best sport has been got on the Carr Bridge Moors, where, inleleven days' shooting, there were:bagged 1,700 head of grouse, of which 1,100 wero old birds.—Banifshire Journal. THE INDIA MAIL.—The East India and China Associa tion have entered into correspondence with the Postmaster General on the inconvenience caused to the mercantile community by the freqnent detention at Marseilles of the homeward East India and China mails. It appears that during the last eighteen months nine instances have oe. curred in which the monthly mail has been detained on an average about twelve hours. The Postmasser-General has promised to communicate with the French authori ties on the subject without delay. _ _ _ LETTERS FOR THE COLONY OF NATAL.—Referring to the notice issued on the 22nd ult., in which it was stated that letters for the colony of Natal, when forwarded from this country by ships proceeding only as far as the Cape of Good Hope, would be liable to an extra charge on delivery, for their conveyance from the Cape to Natal, the Postmaster-General has now to announce that he has received official information of the abolition, by the government of Natal, of the extra charge in question, thus placing the letters on the same footing, whether they are sent to Natal direct or via the Cape of Good Hope.— By command of the Postmaster-General, ROWLAND HILL, Sectretary. General Post office, Sept. 23. WELLINGTON MONllMENT. — lndenendently of 150 speci fications, containing plans of St. Paul's Cathedral, which have been sent abroad, and about 100 more which will be required for the same purpose, no less than 350 applications have been sent in from architects, sculptors, and other artists, for copies of the specifications. It is very clear that there will be some few models from architects who will pro bably study or bear in mind those magnificent monuments which exist in Westminster Abbey and the cathedrals of foreign nations, and that the designs of the models will not be confined to those allegorical devices which are sometimes wholly unintelligible to even the learned in such matters, and which require the author, or, after his decease, his ghost, to explain. ANOTHER SADLEIR MYSTERY.—A correspondent, upon whose high character we place the utmost reliance, inquiries what became of the body alleged to be that of John Sadleir, which was shipped in the month of February last, in one of the City of Dublin Company's steamers, and landed at the Custom House ? It was deposited in a shell, regularly booked and docketed ; but since that period no one living can tell, except the parties concerneJ, what became of it, or where it was interrel, as our correspondent affirms that it was never heard of in Thurles, Tipperary, or Clonmel, where inquiries took place subsequently on the subject, with a view to ascertain the place of burial. That the body found at Hampstead Heath, and interred in a neighbouring cemetery, was raised and sent to Ireland is a fact placed boyond doubt; but from the moment of its arrival at the Custom House quay all further knowledge of it terminates. Here is another Sadleir mystery ; who will unravel it ? It is an important question in elucidation of the eventful history of John Sadleir.—Carlow Sentinel. THE FREEHOLD LAND MOVEMENT IN HEREFORDSHIRE. —This important social and political movement has nowhere made more rapid progress than in the purely agricultural county of Hereford. Freehold.land societies are flourishing in every market town throughout that dis trict, and valuable building sites have been secured in each case through their agency. In Hereford, Leominster, and Ledbury, recent acquisitions of property have been made by this means. but by far the greatest step in advance has been taken by the Ross society, which has only been established some six years, and in that time has become possessed of four most eligible estates in close proximity to the town, besides which the society has just laid out a handsome new street to the railway station, and is alto gether one of the most thriving associations of this kind in the kingdom. The Ross Freehold Land Society was established by a few working men, and inaugurated under the auspices of the renowned James Taylor, of Birming ham. The number of intelligent and independent voters of the labouring class thus added to the register will have a telling effect on the next election for HezTfordshire.

Sir,—Allow me to call your attention to the following abuse of power on the part of some one at Woodside Ferry, viz., the closing of the public promenade there at seven o'clock in the evening, instead of eight o'clock, as has been the rule heretofore. Now, as this is rather a favourite resort of many of the residents of Birkenhead, who go down there after the hours of business to inhale the salubrious breeze from the river, and enjoy the many beautiful sights to be seen from the pier, it is a clear case of injustice to deprive them of it. The excuse I believe is, that sundry unruly boys are in the habit of congregating there, and making a disturbance; but, surely, there is so:re other way of remedying this, than by closing the gates altogether. Let the policemen be instructed to remove any noisy individual, and peace will soon be restored; but. to punish the whole for the sins of a very few, is a decided infraction of the spirit of the British constitution, and, in this case, a manifest wrong to the great majority of those who frequent the promenade at Woodside.—Yours, &c., A WOODSIDEAN.

WHIRLWIND AT GLASTONBURY. —A tornado or whirl wind passed over this town on Monday last. About two o'clock p.m. a terrible commotion in the air gave notice of its approach, and in an instant it swept across the lower end of the town, in a direction almost due east, stripping thousands of tiles from the houses, car ry ing off the roofs of several buildings, and uprooting or tearing limb from limb the trees standing in its course. In an orchard behind St. John's church twenty four large appl e t rees were completely destroyed, and further on several hundreds of apple and other trees shared the same fate. A party of giants bent on mis chief could not have produced a scene of greater devastation. Northload-street was covered with fallen tiles and chimneys, and the stables of the George Hotel suffered severely. It moved with astonishing rapidity, producing a noise like a railway train, but the breadth of its destructive influence could not have exceeded 100 yards.
