WRECK OTF TEt TUX OF WIOET.—The wreck
of the American ship Abby Langdon, of New York,
at the back of the tale of Wight, was reported at
Ll..yd's on Sunday week. She was laden with
1,800 tune of rice. She was coining lip Channel on
I Thursday night, when she encountered a dense fog,
'mid went ashore in the vicinity of Fradishiter Bay.
Tugs and other aid were sent from Cowes and
Southampton, but were unable to get her off. She
was making water quite fast, and great fears were
entertained that she would go to pieces. The ship
and cargo are valued at £40,000.

Ponmatomi.—The bar of Portsmouth harbour
being too high to admit of the heavy draught ships
now built going over it with more than an inch or
two of water under the keel, orders have been
leaned to remove it forthwith.

THE ATLANTIC TELEGRAPH.

The line from Valenti' to Newfoundland is now
working satisfactorily both ways. The following mes-
sage was despatched Tuesday evening from the directors
in England to the directors in America
"Europe and America are united by telegraph. Glory
to G..d in the Highest; on earth peace, goodwill towards
men." . . .

Tire message, including the addresses of senders and
receivers, occupied 35 minutes in transmission and con-
sisted of 31 words. Immediately afterwards a message
from Her Majesty the Q seen to his Etrellenoy the Pre-
sident of the United States, oonsisting of 99 words, was
reoeived by Newfoundland in 67 anlnutes. Both mes-
sages were repeated back to Valentia, to test their accu-
racy, and were found to have been taken with great ex-
actness. Of coarse, unless permission be given, the
°agents of Her Majesty's despatch cannot be made
public
Welnesday morning we have the following message,
the last 38 words of which were received in 22 minutes,
from Mr. Cyrus W. Field, who is at Newfoundland
"Cyrus W. Field, Newfoundland, to Directors At-
lantic Telegraph Company, London.—Newfoundland,
Monday.—Entered Trinity Bay, noon Of the sth.
Landed cable on the 6th, On Thursday morning ship
at ones to St. John's. Two miles of shore cable, with
end ready for splicing.
"When was cable landed at Valenti'? Answer by
telegraph, and forward my letters to New York."
It will thus be seen that the line is now capable of
being worked with perfect accuracy, and the company
will now proceed, as rapidly as is consistent with the
establishment of • proper system, to make the necessary
arrangements for opening the ciounnunication to the
public, in doing which, however, some delay must
necessarily occur.

INDIA.

THE SURVIVOR OF THE CAWNPORE MASSACRE.—
In a private letter from an honourable and intelligent
resident in Calcutta, mingling extensively in society
there, we read :—" The yottng lady who survived in
the Cavnipore massacre is now in Calcutta. Her mind
is still unsettled, and she cannot bear to be spoken to on •
the subject." The date of this letter is July 1.
The Peninsular and Oriental Company have reoeived
intelligence by Telegraph, from Cadiz, that the Colombo
on the homeward voyage from Malta, broke her screw
shaft shortly before reaching Gibraltar, but that she was
to leave the latter place on the evening of the 15th inst.,
with the Government steamer Itedpole in company. A
delay of two or three days will therefore probably take ,
place in the arrival of the passengers and the heavy por-
tion of the India and China mails at Southampton.

The harvoet is progressing favourably and the
crops are generally good, but the hasty 'hewers have
occasioned a little hindrance this week. The potato
crop by far exceeds general expectation, although
haulms have long shown indications of disease, yet
the roots do not decay so fast as for several pact
years they have done. A line specimen of the
" Weigh Whites," grown by a labourer of this
palish, of the name of Swstridge, bee excited great
attention. Four potatoes (part of the roam* of one
stalk) measured 5 feet 4 inches round the greater
parts, end 3 feet 6 inch.)s round the lesser parts,
and their weight was Vbs. We wish every cottager
In the neighbourhood hail ten sacks each of those, or
a similar curt, as a store for the ensuing winter.

There was a short supply of wheat, which met a quick
sale at rates about ls. per qr. above lut week's prices.
In other grain nothing doing.

The weather in most districts has checked harvest
operations, but in some places, on in Norfolk and in
Suffolk, all the wheat hos been got in, but there is
generally much barley in the fields. The reports of all
descriptions of grain continue to be satidactory. Trade
in wheat last Saturday was mostly dull, and al about
late rates. Barley was in demand, and the early.
secured crop fetched good prices.

LIVERPOOL WOOL MARKET, AVG. 21.
Foreign wool continues in good demand, and, although
there is no material change in prices for most descrip-
tions, they are tending in favour of sellers. All kinds of
medium to line colonial or foreign can he readily sold at
full-quoted rates. fliontch has been in fair demand, and
prices are well maintained.

WORCESTER HOP-MARKET, Aug. 21.
Although we hear of hop-picking in Kent, there is no
probability of a commencement being load. in the Wor-
oester district for some time. The crop will be better
than gym expected at one time, and the warm minx
which have fallen stare Saturday lent seem to have
cherished the plant at a rather critical time. In the
market there is very little doing in last year's crop, o
which there is still a good balk in the country. Simon
lation has oonimenoedon the duty, which I. estimated at
4115,000.

ITALY.

In Turin—the main to of conversation is still the
visit of Count Cavour to Plombieres. There are nume-
rous versions of what there passed between the French
Einiseror and the eminent Italian statesman, and every
version is guaranteed as correct u if the propounder
had been hidden under the table In the room where the
sleeting took place. Count Cavour, does not oonceal
his gratification at the kindness with which the Emperor
received him, or his belief that Napoleon's interest in
, and good will towards Italy are in no degree diminished.
Be had no Isis reason to be gratified with the reception
he met from the Prince of Prussia, his meeting with
whom at Baden was unexpented. The impression at
Turin la highly favourable, and the interview is taken as
a proof that Piedmont has won many sympathies even
in Germany. The compliments paid by the present
ruler of Prussia to King Victor Einmanuel's Prime
Minister are gall and bitterness to Austria. In short,
Count Cavour's journey has excited great hopes through
out the whole of Italy, and has largely increased
Piochnontese influence in the Peninsula.

Somersetsbire.

TAR HARVEST iv SOMERSET.—It is gratifying to
record that in this ()aunty a large portion of the
wheat crop is well secured. Oats arid barley have
been saved in about the same proportion —more than
half of each crop, take the county through ; but in
early district, they are almost oompletely-harvested.
From very extensive information, we are led to the
conchtsion that the yield, estimating it from the
straw, will be rather more than an average, and
superior in quality, if not in quantity, to that of last
year. White wheat, in particular, stands up better;
we have already heard of 63 to 661 b. weights of the
new crop. In some instances these weights were
attained last year; but the average this season is
expected to be heavier, We shall have some prime
qualities of barley—heavy, and, we should think, an
' average crop. Winter ()eta have reached 42 to 441bs.
per bushel ; and the spring ones will be of good
quality, and promise to he an average in quantity.
Beans—including winter ones, which are very good
—are considered less than an average; but, while
there are 1101216 bad pieoes, on deep, heavy soils,
there are some very good crops of spring ones, the
cutting of which has just commenced. Vetches are
the worst crop we have ; and peas are little better.
Many of the former intended for seed have been
given to cattle. Clovers are very short ; and there
will not be nearly the usual quantity of seed saved.
Mangold generally good. Few plants of swedes,
and they are stunted. The late storms have im-
proved the plants, which have come up after the
twenty-four hours' rain we have mentioned, es-
pecially mustard, rape, and turnip, a good deal of
which was sown where the ewedes failed. Our pas-
turfs and after-grass have improved in appearance,
which haa greatly increased the sheep feed. There
has lately been a decided increase of the potato
disease; and the haulms appear likely to be des-
troyed, as in former years; but, as the season is
advanced, we shall probably have a larger crop of
line potatoes than last year, except on the light, dry
soils, where they will be small.

Thus row—The two women who were acquitted
of the charges of murdering their children, at the
Sninereet 111111liell, remain in custody during her
Majesty's pleasure.
Timm. —Joke Harrison and William Oorby, two
tramps, the one from Hampshire and the other from
Bridgwater, tore up their &thee in the Yeovil
Union house on Thursday morning, after having
been provided with supper and breakfast. When
the porter went into the ward in the morning they
were discovered in estate of nudity. They demanded
fresh clothes, and after being provided with shirts,
waistmata and tremors, ungratefully broke in the
windows of the ball. P.C. Farthing wee sent for,
and apprehenelad them. 'They were taken before

It confirms the intelligence already published :
ALEX &NDRIA, Feb. 10.

The Pekin, with intelligence from Bombay to the
24th of January, reached Sues on the Bth of February.
The capture of Parruckabad and Futtyghur by Sir Cohn
Campbell is confirmed. On the 2nd, while marching
upon Futtyghur, he routed and dispersed a large body of
rebel/4 with slight loss to himself. The Nawab fled
across the Ganges into Rohilcund, whither Sir Colin
was about to follow him. After the subjugation of
Rohilcund, the Commander-in-Chief was to advance
again upon Lucknow. Brigadier Walpole joined
Colonel Seaton's column at Bawer, near Mynporee, on
the 3rd of January. The whole of the road is clear of
rebels. In Rajpootana nothing of note. The Rajah of
Kotah is said to be anxious to make terms. All well in
the Punjab, and in the Madras and Bombay Presiden-
cies. On the 12th and 16th of January Sir James
Outram was attacked by the rebels, who on both occa-
sions were driven back with great slaughter. In the
last-mentioned engageinent the leader of the rebels, a
Hindoo fanatic, was wounded and taken prisoner. The
Bhowal Contingent were disarmed on the 9th of
January, at Seliore, by the force under General Rose.
150 of the mutineers were tried and shot on the 12th.
Sir Robert Hamilton and Sir Hugh Rosa, with the Cen-
tral Indian Field Force, were on their way to Saugor.
The Kamptee column was also advancing on Bangor.
General Roberts had taken command of the Rajpootans
Field Force, which left Deese on the 2nd. The Go-
vernor-General is said to be on his way to the North
West Provinces. The import-market had improved,
Exports were dull. Exchange 2a. ld. for credit bills.
The money-market was rather tight. The Waterloo,
with the head quarters of the 56th, has arrived at Bom-
bay. At Kurrachee the Alipore, with Artillery, and
the Oriental with the 04th. This latter was looked for
back at Sues. The Vectis, with the homeward Bombay
mail, left here for Marseillem on the 14th at 10 a.m.
The Valetta arrived from Marseilles on the 14th at
7 c m., and sailed for Alexandria at 10 a.m. The Pert,,
from Southampton, arrived on the 15th at 10 cm.,
having experienced strong head winds. She leaves at
4 p.m. for Alexandria."

SARDINIA.

The Sardinian Government has received a note from
that of Naples, couched in moderate and courteous but
decided terms, the substance of which is that the latter
government rejects the view taken of the affair of the
Cagliari by the consultative commission at the Turin
Foreign-office, and declines in any way to interfere
with the decisions of the Neapolitan tribunals. The
trial at Salerno is suspended, in consequence, as we are
here informed, of the mental derangement of the unfor-
tunate Watt.

HOUSE OF LORDS-MONDAY.

The Earl of ELIC—N-80-11-0073-Et inquired if the govern-
ment had received any intelligence with regard to
the execution of 150 mutineers by Bit Hugh Rose,
and recommended a lenient course of policy to the
government.
Lord GRANVILLE replied that the government had as
as yet no information on the subject except through the
telegram. The government quite agreed, and so it
would seem did the Governor-General, with the gen-
eral principle laid down by Lord Elleuborough.
The Duke of CAMBRIDGE expressed his satisfaction
at the despatch written by Sir Cohn Campbell in ex-
culpation of General Windham' s conduct at Cawnpore.
Certain returns in connection with the Bankruptcy
Commissioners were ordered, on the motion of Lord
'Brougham, and their Lordships then adjourned.

COURT FOR DIVORCE AND ItATRIMONIAL
CAUSES, Fits. 17.
(Before the JUDGE ORDDGET.)
EIOWBOTH/111 V. ROWBOTIVI.M.

This WA a petition by a wife against $ husband for dis-
solution of marriage on the ground of adultery and
bigamy.
Mr. Macqueen moved, under the 42E1 section of the
Divorce Act, that service of the citatiai upon the father
of the respondent might be subetitntec for personal ser-
vice. The learned gentlemen read allidsvits, from which
it appeared that the respondent left lie wife in March,
1856, that she had not heard from him since that time,
and that his father, who was living in London, knew
that he was residing in New York, and had received
newspapers from hiin as late as January last, and was
probably acquainted with his address.
Sir C. Creaswell had some doubt whether he had
power, sitting alone, to make the order prayed in a suit
fore divorce a 'Anemic. That was a question for future
consideration; but, even if he had jurisdiction, he should
decline to exercise it in the present case. There was
strong evidence that the respondent was at New York,
and he thought some effort ought to be made to serve
him with the citation there. A copy of the citation
might be sent to New York and served by an agent, who
might send back an affidavit of service.

MORE R. MORI.
This was a suit promoted in the Eoclesiastieal Court
by • wife against her husband for divorce d menad et
thoro, on the ground of cruelty and adultery, and trans-
ferred to this court._

Dr. Wamby, on the part of the wife, applied for leave
to proceed before the full Court for a dissolution of mar-
riage, instead of going on with the suit for a judicial
separation.
Sir C. Cresswell said, the Court must deal with the
suit in the form in which it had bees transferred, and
he could not, therefore, grant the application. The
wife was at liberty to drop this suit and commence
another • indeed,he did not know that a iudioial separa-
tion would be • bar to a petition for a dissolution.
Dr. Wamby said he would proceed with the snit for a
judicial separation.
Dr. Deane, Q.C., for the husband, was unable to offer
any opposition, and
The

LORD CAMPBELL'S ACT.

BOW STREET POLIO & COURT.—.WedDeSday.

The summonses taken out by Mr. Bodkin, counsel for
the Crown, under Lord Campbell's Act for the more
effectual suppression of the sale of obscene representa-
tions, were heard before Mr. Henry.
In the first case the defendant, Sidney Powell, who
was charged with having in his possession • number of
stereoscopic slides of an indecent character, contended
that they were for academic and artistic purposes. He
had been for many years connected with artists, and
had sought their advice as to what really constituted an
indelicate picture. These were single forms, and could
not be more objectionable than the exposure of living
models in our schools of art. However, he NW no wish
to deal in them if they were considered improper.
Mr. Henry said there was no analogy whatever in the
two instanoes. These were representations of low,
vulgar obscenity, attitudes which only the coarsest
minds could suggest. The', were clearly within the
meaning of the Act, and must be destroyed.
Mr. Bodkin requested the.; his worship's order might
stand over for a week, in ease the authorities should
think proper to indict the ddendant, in which case the
slides produced would be reqiired as evidence.
In the two other cases ths defendants (Mr. Bush and
Mr. Hillier) were charged with selling obscene pipes,
tobacco stoppers, pouches, Lc., of which an immense
stock had been seized by the police.
Mr. Lewis, jun.' who apreared for both defendants,
contended that the sot did no; apply to the sale of pipes,
"pictures, prints, and drawings," and such representa-
tions being expressly specified. Moreover, the whole of
theproperty had passedthro4 the Customs(having been
imported from France), and, objectionable, why were
they not detained?
The same decision as in the former ease was pro-
nounoed.

Bettonsbire.

BRISTOL AND EXETER RAILWAY.--The report of
the directors of this company states that the interest
on the preferential capital and debt of £1,724,738
averages £4 3s 10d. per cent. The expenditure on
capital account amounted on the 31st of December
last to £3,236,392, showing an increase of £4,546
during the half-year. The gross traffic receipts on the
line, including those of the Exeter and Criton, and
Somerset Central Railways, amounted to £171,363,
being £8,140 less than in the corresponding half of
1856. The working expenses amounted to £80,562,
or 46-49 per cent., leaving a balance of £90,801.
The passenger traffic was seriously affected in the
early part of the half-year by the diversion of plea-
sure travelling to the Exhibition of Fine Arta at
Manchester. The deficiency of the goods traffic
arose partly from the continual competition with the
Great Western Railway Company for traffic from
the North of England, and from Bristol to Yeovil and
the adjacent district, and partly from the severity of
the monetary crisis in the latter part of the half-
year. The local traffic has, however, remained un-
impaired. The balance of the revenue account, in-
cluding £3,742 from the previous half-year, amounts
to £60,041, and admits of a dividend at the rate of
5 per cent, per annum for the half-year ending the
31st of December last, leaving a balance of £10,041 ;
being £1,296 in excess of the balanoe carried forward
at the corresponding half of 1856.
At her Majesty's levee on Thursday the following
addresses of congratulation were presented to the
Queen on the marriage of her Royal Highness the
Princess Royal with Prince Frederick William of
Prussia :—From the Mayor and Corporation of
Exeter, by Mr. H. Hooper, Mayor, Mr. W. Buck-
ingham, late Mayor, Mr. W. D. Moore, mover of
the address, and Mr. C. Arden, late sheriff, and

sented by Mr. R.. Somers Gard, M. P. From the

AFRICA.

_
The WEST COAST OF AFRICA.—The African Steam
Navigation Company's ship Propeller, which left Ply-
mouth Nov. 24, 1857, and reached Fernando Po on the
25th december, has returned to Falmouth, where she
arrived on Wednesday. The Propeller sailed from Fer-
nando Po December 29, and left Bonny January 1,
Lagos January 10, Accra January 16, Cape Coast
January 17, Sierra Leone January 26, Bathurst Feb-
ruary 1, Teneriffe February 17, and Maderia February
10. She ogled at all the intermediate porta on the
Slave Coast. Her cargo consists of one box of specie,
and elephants' tusks, cotton, palm-oil, tobacco, wine,
ho. The Propeller reports from Ferdinand Po, that her
Majesty's ship Bloodhound sailed for the river Bonny on
the 26th of December, having on board the Bntish
Consul, who went to investigate the circumstances
connected with the murder of a woman who was killed
by the natives. The Bloodhound anchored on the 30th
off the town. Shortly after the steamer anchored the

Prince, chiefs, and the two prisoners accused came on
board. The latter were tried and condemned to death.
The chiefs took them on shore, where they were partially
strangled and their brains beaten out with club. H.
steamer Ileala and Her Majesty's gunboat Brune were
at anchor off Lagoa on the 13th of January. The Fire.
fly sailed for the Cape on the Bth of January. At Sierra
Leone on the 22hd of January were Her Majesty's ships
Veativiva, Spitfire, and Heron at anchor. Her Majesty's
ship Heron sailed next day on a cruise. On January
the 22nd Her Majesty's ship Archer arrived from
England ; January 24 Her Majesty's ships Pluto and
Childers arrived from a cruise. Admiral Sir George
Grey, in the Boscawen, was daily expected from the
Cape. The natives residing on the banks of the Scarcies
river had openly violated their treaty with our Govern-
ment, and Commodore Wise, of the Vesuvius, had
given them a certain date (tome time in February),
when, if he did not receive a favourable reply, an
armed expedition was to be sent against them. The
Propeller met with very strong winds and heavy head
sea after leaving Madeira; average speed about seven
knots.

-THURSDAY.

Their Lordships mei-taTol-croCk.
The Earl of CARNARVON, in moving for a return of
the actual strength of the Militia regiments at present
embodied, compared the vote for the Militia proposed
by the estimates of this year, with the same vote of
1855, and expressed his opinion that it was insuffi-
cient. He doubted if the sum of £150,000 would be
sufficient to maintain the embodied Militia in the force
required.
Lord PANMURE stated that a body of 10,000 Militia
would be sufficient, as the ranks of the army were now
more freely supplied by voluntary enlistment. Since
the Ist of January 8,500 men have thus been raised ; the
number of recruits raised in the past week was 2,000.
If recruiting went on in the same ratio for two months
longer, the Government would have raised by voluntary
enlistment, since the month of July last, a force nearly
equal to the army sent to India. The vote of £150,000
for the Militia would be enough for the number of that
body required.
The motion was agreed to.
Lord BROUGHAM introduced a Bill for effecting
various changes in the present jurisdiction in bank-
ruptcy. His Lordship described seine of the incon-
veniences of the present system, the chief of which was
that throughout an extensive district of the country all
the bankruptcy business was necessarily brought before
the Colrt in London. From seven counties, containing
the important towns of Norwich, Yarmouth, Southamp-
ton, and Brighton, the whole bankruptcy business was
brought to the Central Court. This evil Lord Brougham
proposes to remedy by giving a jurisdiction in bank-
ruptcy in those districts to the present County Courts.
A main object of the measure is to localize the ex:minis-
tration of the law of bankruptcy in the same manner as
the general administration of justice.
The LORD CHANCELLOR would not promise to
adopt the Bill, but would give it his best considera-
tion.

Lord CAMPBELL and Lord WENSLEYDALE concurred
in the opinion that the whole law of bankruptcy required
revision.

Lord STANLEY OF ALDBBLEY stated that the Govern-
ment intended to propose • Bill that would facilitate
settlements in bankruptcy (seises by agreement between
the debtor and creditors, by which it was hoped much
loss of funds by litigation would be prevented.
Their Lordshipe then adjourned.

HARK•LANE CORN EXCHANGE.

FRIDAY. FEB. 19.—Fresh up to-day, coastwise and
by land carriage, the arrrirals of English wheat were
very moderate, and the show of sample. was, conse-
quently, limited. Most kinds were in fair, but not to
say active, request, and Monday's prices were well sup-
ported. Over 7,000 quarters of foreign wheat have
come in this week. Fine red and white qualities sold at
full quotations; but inferior kinds were a slow inquiry.
Barley moved off steadily, at fully Monday's currency.
We had a moderate inquiry for malt on former terms.
Good, sound oats sold at full quotations; but low sam-
ples met a dull inquiry. Beans, peas, and flour moved
off slowly at Monday's currency.

THE PACIFIC.

The arrival at Southampton of the West India mail
steamer Orinoco puts us in possession of files of the
Panama Star and Herald to the 23rd of January.
The news from Valparaiso is of a more satisfactory
nature than that previously received. The harvest was
an abundant one, and the scarceness of provisions had
in some means been relieved. The mines of Atacama
were growing better every day, and the yield of silver
ore was becoming very large. The particulars of the
loss of the Pacific Steam Navigation Company's steamer
Vildivia had been published. At 7 a.m., on the 11th
of December, she struck during • thick fog on a rock at
Duos Point, II miles south of Llico. The ship at once
began to fill rapidly, and the passengers and crew were
immediately landed. In less than two hours she went
to pieces. The accident was attributed to deviation of
the compass, the ship being built of iron. A destruc-
tive-fire took place in Valparaiso on the 17th of Decein-
ber, at 1 a.m., in the square in front of the former
Custom-house. By the exertions of the fire brigade,
assisted by the mows of Her Majesty's ship Monarch
and the French frigate Einbutoade, the flames were pre-
vented front spreading. The loss was calculated at
L)200,000, partly covered by insurance. The national
steamer Maria Isabel, recently purchased in England for
$200.000, was lost in Misericordia Bay, in the the Straits
of Magellan. Her crow (consistining of 117 persons)
were saved by the Sardinian bark San Jorge, and had
arrived at Valparaiso. The San Jorge, from Genoa,
was previously reported lost or in distress in the Straits,
and the Maria Isal was ordered to search for her, and
offer any assistance required. She was in sight of the
San Jorge when the accident occurred. The republic of
Bolivia, under its provisional President, appeared to be
at present quiet. The Government was engaged in re-
forming the postal service. The pay of the army had
been reduced.
