METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.

THI:III4DAT, JUNE 2.—To-day's market was fairly sup-
plied with most breeds of bents, and the demand for them
ruled very inactive, at Monday's quotations. Sheep—
the show of which was seasonably good—moved off
slowly. In prices, however, no ehange took place. We
had a slow inquiry for lambs—the show of which was
rather limited—at Monday's decline in value. About
300 came to hand from the Isle of Wight. Calves were
in moderate supply, and sluggish request, on former
terms. In pip and mach cows very httle was passing,
at unaltered currencies. -

and the operations for time have increased to some
extent, must of the jobbers having shown greater con-
denee as regards the stability of the quotations.

THE ATTAIRS OF THC BRITISH BAl4l.—The assignees
of the Royal British Bank have succeeded in arranging
a pending Chancery suit, which, if proceeded with,
might have prevented the payment of another dividend
for a considerable period. A. this new 'cum of liti•
gation has been avoided, the assignees intend to pay
soother dividend in bankruptcy in the course of the pre-
sent month.

Large purchases of English horses are alleged to be in
progress for the French army. One contract it is said,
has just been entered into for 1,500, and many thousands
are reiluired. It has been asked if our dealers can be
allowed to supply these under the ezisting neutrality
laws woich prevent our sending coal to the French
ports? But the sale of coal has not been prohibited.
The authorities at the Foreign-office have expressly
declared that they do nut fed it necessary to pronounce
upon the point. They think that coal could fairly be
considered contraband, but leave it to the powers
interested to enforce their own views. All that they
say is, that if persons export coal to belligerents, they
must do no at their proper risk, and not call on their
own Government to interfere with reclamation' in ease
of capture. The only definitive prohibition has been
against Ilse chartering of vessels to either of the con-
tending Powers as troop or store ships.

The Bank of England on Thursday reduced their rate
of diacount from 41 per mat., at which it had stood from
the sth of May, to 34 per cent.

HOUSE OF COMMONS-TUESDAY.

The new House of Commons on meeting were sum-

Colonel WILSON PATTEN moved that the Right Hon.
John Evelyn Denison, member fur North Nottingham-
shire, be again called to fill that distinguished office,
dwalling upon the attention lie had shown to the dis-
charge of its duties, his impartiality, and his general
beanug towards lh members of the late House. He
added a graceful tribute to the private virtues of Mr
Denison.

The motion was eeenniled by Sir F. BARING, who ad-
verted to the difticulties with which the late Speaker
had had to contend when new to the office, and to the
mimes,' with which he had surmounted thew.
Mr. DEsiews submitted !damsel( to the pleasure of
the House, and, there being no distention" voice, he
MU conducted by the mover and seconder to the
chair, whence he offered his acklicwledgmente to the
House.
He was then congratulated upon his re-election by
the CHANCELLuIt a the EICHKQUIR and Lord PAL-
MERSTON, and the House adjourned at 7b militates to

CHINA.

From Shanghai come rumours which may }useably
have some influence on the course to be pursued by the
liritish Minister to China. It is said that the Russians
have established their Legation at Pekin, and that their
Minister has been attended there by a large retinue, but
that he has already had • difference with the Chinese
Government, from big refusing to communicate officially
with any one but the Emperor himself. This is •
Chinese story. It is also reported that Tien-Tsin
(where the treaty was concluded) had been occupied by
a large number of Chinese troops, and "difficulties'
art appreliendei when our Minister advances to Pekin
with the ratified treaty.

ACCIDIENT. On Monday evening an accident
occurred to H. Reeves, coachman to It. LedipuTl,
Esq.. by which be sustained a fracture of the leg. It
appeared that he had been a journey, and on arriving
at the lnor of his house in a vehicle, he changed the
reins from one hand to the other, in order to reach
something to his wife. The reins had by some
means become twisted, and when he was about to
drive on he pulled the wrong rein, and the horse
turned mum I, upset the carriage. and threw Recv et out
and broke hi, kg. Medical aid was soon procured,
..nrl the man is doing well.

FitiTrs or INTEXPERANCIL—On Thursday night
last, the attention of P. C. Domony was called to
the house of Mr. King. pilot. of this port, by a boy,
who on arriving found %Ira. King on the floor of the
room in flames, in a state of intoxication. Seeing
nothing in the room to wrap round her, he got some
water and threw over her, and 60 subdued the flames,
but not before the woman was very much burnt
about the legs and arms. Mr. I.lcy. surgeon, was
sent for and promptly attended, and she is believed
to be progressing favourably. Great praise is due to
the officer for his exertion, in putting out the lire,
for had he not been near the poor woman would
inevitably have lost her life. It is supposed that the
accident occurred by her knocking the candle off the
table, as the officer found the candle lying by her,
and no tire in the grate.
ACCIDENT.—Au inquest was held on Saturday
last by 11. M. Aldridge, Esq., coroner, at Lilliport
Hill, on the body of Thomas Rogers, aged 3 years
and 9 months. It appears the father of the child is a
brick maker, and works near his house. The parents
missed the child, and his brother ring to the well
for some water, found the poor little fellow in it
head downwards and quite dead. Verdict, " Acci-
dental death," with an order that the well should be
filled in or a cover put over it. The father
promised to fill it in.

the British fors** had invested.

COMMON SENSE IN THE INDI A N BUREAU. - Sir
Trevelyan's first act at Madras has been to hews
an order which, though it will appear simple enough to
our readers, seems to Indian officials a measure of
Jacobin audacity. He has prohibited the transmiasion
of oflicial reoonls to the India HOW unless they are of
some importance. Hitherto, every letter, no matter
how insignificant, every dispateh, and every order have
gone house to the India House in triplicate. So enor•
mous has the correspondence become that the greater
portion is never read for years, and orders return "sp.
proved" three years after they have been esecuted.

With the exception of about 30 shipwrights, the
whole of the additional labourers, shipwrights, and
mechanics ordered to be taken on at Chatham dockyard
for the augmentation of that establishment have now
been entered. Owing to the great demand for chip-
wrights at private dockyards, the Adsuiralty have ex-
penenced some difficulty in procuring a sufficient num-
ber of that class of artisans to complete the entries
ordered to be made, but, from intelligence which hu
been received at Chatham from the shipbuilding yards !
in the north, the full number of men required will
shortly be obtained, several first-class workmen having
expressed their intention to enter at Chatham dock-
yard.
A contract having been taken for the works necessary
for the enlargement of Deptford Dock and Victualling
Yard, the boundary wall has been commenced ; and the
add.t coal land marked at, and which has been recently
pun hued by Government, is nearly equal in extent to
the site of the existing establishment. Several new
buildings. consisting chiefly of storehouses for provilions
kc., are ordered to ha erected, but the work has been de-
layed in consequence of the builders' strike.
The departure from Woolwich of the Artillery force

On Thurerlay morning a large party of non-corn-
missioned officers and men of various corps who have re-
cently arrived at the invalid depot from India, wounded
and disabled, were discharged from that establishment
and forwarded to their respective homes, in consequence
of their unfitness for further service.

Hollowit-ii Pills for the cure of dropsical affections.—
The causes of this direful disease are various. It is often

COURT OF PROBATE AND DIVORCE, Nov. 10.
(Before Sir C. Ciumswei.i..)

CIOCCI V. cIoCCI.

This was a suit originally instituted in the Consistory
Court of London by a wife for • divorce a nutlet cf Moro 1
on the grounds of adultery and cruelty. That Court 1
held that the charge of adultery was made out, but not !
that of cruelty, and pronounced sentence of divorce.
She has since filed a petition in this court fur a judicial
separation on the ground of adultery.
Dr. Phillimore, Q.C. now moved, under the fifth sec-
tion of the 21st and :rind of Victoria, cap. 104, that the
evidence taken in the suit in the Cunsistory Court
might be used in support of the petition in this court.
Sir C. Cromwell said, the lady was already sepal se,ed
from her husband.
Dr. Phillimure said, her object in presenting the
present petition was to obtain protection for her pro-
perty.
Sir C. Cresswell entertained very grave doubts whe-
ther he had jurisdiction to re-hear cases which had been
heard and determined by the Ecclesiastical Conrta. The
lady was in no peril, for if he dismissed her petition she
would still remained divorced. The case of • petition
for • dissolution of marriage stood on • different foot-
ing, for there the jurisdiction given to the Court was
substituted for that formerly exercised by the House of
Lords, and a suit in the Ecclesiastical Court was almost
a necessary preliminary to an application to the House
of Lords. He should not refuse to hear the cause, but
he hoped that on the hearing this point would be fully
discussed, for it was one of considerable importance.—
Application granted.

PRUSSIA AND RUSSIA.

We are informed from Berlin that, at the interview
held at Breslau, the Emperor of Russia and the Prince
Regent of Prussia have determined not to content to a
revision of the treaties of 1815, nor to take part in any
Congress in which England should not be represented—
the last resolution being proposed by Prussia. This state-
ment, which very much bean the look of probability, is
contradicted by some foreign journals. They maintain
that the conference between the Russian and Prussian
Potentates has resulted in a conspiracy to isolate Great
Britain from the rest of Europe for her continued obsti-
nate adherence to the bygone principles of faith and
honour, and respect for her plighted word. The Prussiais
Gazette has an article on this subject. The following is
a summary of it :
The AIIf/mein Zeituteg hoists on its statement that
the interview between the Emperor of Russia and the
Prince Regent of Pills Sill has a tendency hostile to Eng-
land. The same paper pretends that Prussia had entered
upon the policy of France and Russia to isolate England
and had promised to maintain an unconditional 'mitre-
lity in case war should be declared by France against
England. In order to support these absurd insinuations,
the Allgesitise Zeitmeg refers to the imaginary state-
ments of some Prussian newspapers which are known to
belong to the opposition press, and which have a self-un-
derstood interest to disfigure every step of the Govern-
ment for the sake of obtaining a basis for attacks against
it. The writers of the Allgemieute Zeitumg place them-
selves, by their conduct, on the same footing with certain
French journals which, in translating the malevolent
conjectures of the Prussian Opposition press, trandonned
them into positive facts. These tactics may be consi-
dered ingenious, but are hardly patriotic or useful to the
interest/ of Germany.

full quotations. 'Yearling and old parcels are very dull.

healthier tone to our market, and induced more activity
in the demand for fine samples of every description. In.

valise. The imports of foreign hops into London last
week, were 5 bales from Hambro'.

AUSTRIA.

The Austrian Correapowdemee publishes an article
which commenoes by stating that some foreign papers
had given an incorrect and partly a false account of
certain events connected with the meeting between •
high Austrian functionary and several Hungarian mag-
nates. The article expresses regret for the controversy
on this subject in some home newspapers, as the pi inn-
pal want at the present moment is moderation, and the
strengthening of the moral peace between the different
nations comprising the tustrian empire, and concludes
by expressing a hope that this conviction will soon be-
come general.
The Schiller Festival was celebrated at Vienna bril-
liantly. The torchlight processions were numerous, and
the greatest order and enthusiasm prevailed throughout
the city. The weather was exceedingly fine until to-
wards the conclusion of the festival, when rain fell, but
not in any considerable quantity.

The natives of New Zealand are turning their atten-

PARLIAMENTARY REPRESENTATION Or LCITIT.—At
a meeting at the Chamber of Commerce it was unman-
niously resolved to memorialise Government that in
the new Reform Bill provision should be made to have
a member to represent Leith unconnected with Porto-
bello and Slusselburgh ; and that a copy of the memo-
vial should be sent to the First Lord of the Treasury,
Lord Palmerston, Lord John Russell, and the Lord

CHINA.

Letters from China bring intelligence down to Sep-
tember 12; it principally relates to the movement of
the French squadron. In consequence of rather serious
news from Japan, the Admiral had immediately sent
the Duchayla to Nagasaki. The steamer was to visit
the different porta open to Europeans, and enforce
respect for the French liag. The Japenese Govern-
ment seemed anxious to avoid executing the chief stipu-
lations of the treaties concluded with foreigners, but it
was not supposed that recourse to arms would be neces-
sary to bring them to a sense of duty. The French and
English Admirals had been informed that the Chinese
were adding to the defenses of the Peiho, by construct-
ing new batteries in advance of the other+. On the hill
to the right of the forts they had built a small temple to
commemorate their victory, and had celebrated its open-
ing by bonfires and fireworks for several consecutive
nights. Notwithstanding those demonstrations, how-
ever, the intercourse of the French and English with
lb. Chinese authorities continued on a friendly footing.

to omit any opportunity for training and discipline,
to enable them to be of use to resist an invading
enemy. ((Ire.) In replying to the toast of hot

AMERICA.

The despatch of General Cms, in reply to Lord
John Ramiell's despatch on the an Juan affair lbw
been forwarded to London. It is described as firm and
decided in tone. A correspondent at Washington,
writing on this subject says, "If the language of the
British Ministry in their late despatch is what I have
good reason to believe it is, the position of Great Britain
can hardly be reconciled to • strictly peaceful policy,
and will require • goal deal of forbearance on our part.
The affair in its present shape may be considered
serious, if not threatening. The instructions to General
Scott are understood to be peaceful and conciliatory.'

ITALY.

The apprehension felt by the Neapolitan Government
for its northern frontier seems DOi to have peered away,
for we are informed that the army of the Abruraos will
go into cantonment during the 'lntel. A letter from
Naples, of the 30th ult., states that a oonsiderable body
of insurgents bad assembled at Corleone, iv Sicily.

after sunset. Meanwhile the troops of General Pianelli
that were quartered in the neighbourhood of Learn*
twenty-four leagues north of Naples, have advanced by
forced marches towards Teramo in Abruzso Uteriore,
and other troops me daily leaving Nvlmi on their way
to the same destination. Wagon-Imids of all kinds of
ambulance stores are being sent off to the army, and all
the biscuit obtainable at Castellamare has had to be de-
livered up on requisition for the same purpose. It is
believed that hereafter Neapolitan troops will

their turn are to relieve the French troops at Rome."

A SACIIIID TRAGEDY.— Remembering how the Ray.
John Home was driven out of his pulpit in the Church
of Scotland for writing • tragedy, we reed with astonish-
ment the following announcement in • Scotch journal:
—"On Tuesday the Rev. Mr. Waddell, of Girven, read
from his own pulpit • poetical tragedy, of which he is
the author. entitled 'King Saul,' illustrating the power
of madness, superstition, and jealousy combined. It is
• five set tragedy, adhering throughout to the narrative
as it appears in Holy Writ, and containing on every
page delineations of character, and fine dramatic taste,
which would not disgrace the pen of the greatest drama-
tists."

THE Coxeugrrtog or SPIRITS IC SCIITLAND.—Mr.
D. M'Laren, quoting statistics from • recent Perlis.
inentary return, maintains that, mainly in consequence
of the Forbes Mackenzie Act, " during the four years
ending May, 1858, in place of the alleged increase in the
quantity of spirits consumed in Scotland, there was •
decrease of 6,465,702 gallons, as compared with the
quantity consumed during the preceding four years
under the operation of the old law." Mr. sFLaren con-
tinues :—" During this period the population of Scot-
land must have increased, according to the ratio of the
last census, at the rate of 14 per cent. per annum, or 5
per cent, in all; and if no change had taken place in
the drinking habits of the people the quantity of spirits
consumed must likewise have increas.d 5 per cent. ; but
in place of this there has been • positive decrease 01 224
per cent., making, with the comparative decrease of 5
per cent., • total decrease of 274 per cent, in the average
consumption for each person in Scotland. In England
the increase during the last four years was 7,226,935
gallons. In England the population must have increased
at the rate of 14 per oent, per annum, according to the
ratio of the last census, or 6 per cent, during the four
years; but the increased consumption came& 124 per
cent., so :hat the average consumption for each person
in England has increased by 64 per cent, during the
last four years, although the Scotch consuinption has
decreased 274 per cent, during the same period." Mr.
IFLaren combats the statement that the decreased con-
sumption was caused by the increased duty, and that,
in fact, the people of Scotland expended more money
on whisky during the last four years than in the pre-
ceding period.
