which were booked to • very considerable amount. Buck-
stone, on the other hand, was about restored to his
former rank in the quotations, backers having evidently
sati,:iil themselves of the groundleesuess of the re •
ports that he had been Waters in his trial by
Costa sod The Knave, or that he had " thrown
a curb." Such was the disposition to invest in his favour
that at last 6to 1 was taken freely about biro. At the
commencement of business there appeared a very strong dis-
position to bet against Carisbrook at 8 to 1, but before the
close that price was accepted with some alacrity. Hurricane
was not in such force as she promised during the week, and
was only tamely supported at 14 to 1, odds offered up to the
finish. Exchequer, who had recently had • somewhat
rhequerrd existence in the quotations, returned to somewhat
approaching his previous position, and was again in demand
at 14 to 1. Argoneut's fortunes appeared hopelessly wrecked,
as in the City during the morning he wail so formidably op-
posed that he was driven to :Cl to 1, and at the " Corner"
25 to 1 was offered. Johnny Armstrong was in some request
at 100 to 6, and the Stockwell colt was " quiet" at 30 to 1.
Among the extreme outsiders we may mention that 50 to 1
was offered against Bertha, and Caswell and Warminster
were occasionally backed at the long shots of 1,000 to 10.
For the Champagne Stakes a deal of money bad been in-
vested in the City upon Lord Chides), and at that " pur-
chase money" be was made the object of renewed support at
the Corner. Early Purl, notwithstanding, was backed at 7
to 2, and Haddington war made a rare " pot" for the
Gnat Yorkshire Handicap, quite supplanting Dukibella for
first favouritism, AS will be found in reference to the odds
quoted below. For the Derby 10 to 1 was token about Lord

About 400 hands wore yesterday discharged from
the various departments of the Royal Arsenal, and a con-

in consequence of the crowded state of the stores Not-
withstanding this drawback, a meeting of the workmen has
been held at the Royal Arsenal Librsty, when it was re-
solved to co-operate for the relief of the distress in Lanca-
shire, and the amount subscribed from the whole of the
departments during one week for that purpose is 29f. 18e.

scarcely • rifle corps in the metropolis that has not sus- I

will resume them within the next week or ten days.
Amongst the first to do so will be the 29th, or North Mid-

for • period of three years, commencing from
the 6th of October next, the use of the splendid ,

On Saturday afternoon a spirited content took Owe be•

&ingot 200, 500, and 600 yards, five shots at each range,
points and bite to be added. At the conclusion the score
stood—For Waltham, 128 points and 83 hits—total, 211 ;
Epping, points 123, hits 81—total, 204. The sane after-
noon the 21st Surrey Rifles, under the command ot Op.

CITY BETTING. -9% -ATURDAY.

There was a strong muster at "The Club," and before ,1
business commenced it was evident that some "movement"
in the St. Leger betting was about to take place. Not-
withstanding the caution exercised, it was quickly seen that
Blackstone had many friends, and although the investments
in his favour were trifling, he rapidly rose into favour, and
7 to 1 was the highest offer against him at the close.
Evidently there was good mosey behind Mr. Merry's horse,
and it is highly probable ere the flag is lowered that he will
be reinstated in his former prominent position in the
betting. Exchequer, without any assignable muse,
retrograded ; and the disposition to " lay" was unmistake-
able. Argonaut received a coup, and rumour would have it
that an unfavourable trial was the cause. Speculators also
seemed anxious to continue figuring against all the favour-
ites, and from the absence of any demonstration being made
in favour of an outsider, the solution of the St. Leger of
1864 is of unparalleled difficulty.

MANSION•HOURK

John Fenno, describeil7a4itsissell-terrace, Old Kent-
road, perfumer and " professional gambler," wee re-
examined. charged with being in possession of a stolen 101.
Bank of England note. A large quantity of foreign moneys
bad been found oo the prisoner.
Mts. Blackburn, the prosecutrix, not being present, the
only additional evidenx given on Saturday wan Charles
Bowman, assistant to Mr. Vaughan, of the Strand, pawn-
broker and money changer, who deposed that on the 4th of
September the prisoner came to his maters shop, and he
obtained change in French and Prussian money for three
50/, notes and one 10/. note, Ile wrote his name and address
on one of the 50/. notes as of Sloane-street, Camberwell, but
to Mr. Vaughan he gave the address as of 10, Peacock-street,
Camberwell.
A clerk from Mr. RavenLirs, broker, in the City, proved
payment to Mrs. Blackburn of two 501. notes, three 101.
notes, and one 51. note, which were afterwards stolen from
her. Two of the 10/. notes so stolen had been traced to the
possession of the prisoner.
Sergeant Russell, detective, said be was in possession of
, important evidence, which it would not be prudent to dia-
-1 closeat present.
1 Remanded for a week. Bail refused.

BOW-STREET.
A middle-aged, eare.worn, sickly-looking man, named
George bf'Dougall, a Scotchman, was charged with having
revoked his license as a ticket-of-leave man by subsequent
misconduct.
He was in 1858 sentenced to 10 yearn' penal servitude,
for burglary, but at the end of May, 1860, was set
at liberty on a ticket-of-leave, and returned and lived
with his wife and family in Scotland. A few days ago he
got embroiled in a drunken disturbance in the streets of
Edinburgh, and being taken before the justices, he was
hoed 10s. ,for breach of the peace, and a communication
havindbeen sent by them to the Hume Secretary, the usual
I order was issued for the apprehension of the prisoner and
; his re-committal to the convict prison to fulfil the remainder
'of his sentence in penal servitude. Although in dreadfully
ill-health, and in consumption, the prisoner has been
brought from Edinburgh by a warrant officer from Bow-
street.
The convict said he was so ill that he hoped the magis-
trate would allow him medical aid at once. Since he had
bad his liberty, in 1860, no complaint was made against him
till he had the misfortune to have this bit of a family broil.
Not content with fining him 10s., he, a dying man almost,
had been dragged from his home, and was to be sent back
to a convict prison for eight yearn, if he lived. He thought
it a very hard case.
Mr. Corrie said he thought so too, but be was bound to
administer the law, and the order was then made out for
the re-admission of prisoner to a convict gaol.
MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
• •

Edward Johnson, 18, Tivertonetreet, Borough ; Janus
Dickinson, of Webb's County-terrace, New Kent-road;
and Jots Haden, of 5, Elm-street, Gray's-inn-road, were
charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with being concerned, with
others not in custody, in stealing 400 yards of cloth, of the
value of 1001., the property of Mr. William Fisher, of 13
and 14, King-street, Holborn, clothworker.
Albert Fisher, of 20, Krogegateetreet, Holborn, said he
assisted his father, who worked for Mesas. Laudon and
Holland, woollen merchants, of Bood-street. At the be-
ginning of the month he had 28 pieces of cloth, the pro-
perty of Messrs. Landon and Holland, and sent them home
in the cart by his brother ; telling his brother, after he had
seen them packed, to deliverthem. He bad since ascertained
from those gentlemen that only 18 pieces had been delivered.
The pieces stolen contained about 40 yards, and 400 yards,
of the value of 1001., had not been delivered. On the 6th inst.
he accompanied his brother and Bash= to near the Ele-
phant and Castle, and after waiting a short time he (wit-
ness) sew Johnson and Dickinson, who were fetched by his
brother and Haslam, and he followed them. -Heard Haslam
ask the two other prisoners whether there was any chance
of getting the cloth back, as there was a row about it, and
they said " No." He heard his brother ask them formoney
and after his brother came out of the public house he
showed him 21., which he bad received from Johnson. His
(whom' s) father being absent, he did not like to take any
steps then. Did not know where his brother now was, but
believed he had gone to sea.
Sergeant Joy, 9 C, said he went in company of the last
witness to Haslam's house, 5, Elm-street, Gray's-inn-lane,
and he said, on soeiog him (Joy) " I know what you have
come for. rve had no rest since I was eoncerned with
others in stealing cloth from Mr. Fisher, and if you will
allow me to go with you I will point out the men concerned
in it ;" and he accompanied him (Joy) to Johnson's house,
and then to Dickinson's residence. Subsequently the whole
of the prisoners were taken into custody, when nazism said
Johnson and Dickinson were the men who assisted in steal-
ing the cloth and selling it, but they denied it.
The prisoners were remanded for a week, bail being re-
fused.

John Wallace, who refused to give any account of him-
self, except that he had come up from Manchenter to see
the Exhibition, was charged with stealing a puree, con-
taining 7e. iu @flyer, tic., from the person of Miss Elisabeth
Ann Taylor, of Myddletomroad, Wigton, at Waterloo
station on the previous evening.
' The proeecutrix had gone with her father to see a friend
off by a train, and just as it was in motion she felt a hand
in her pocket, and her purse was gone. She instantly
charged the prisoner with the robbery, and as he made
off she told her father, who followed him, and he then ran
through the engine shed, pursued by Franklin, one of the
railway officials. and jumped from a turn-table 15 feet
high, but was still pursued, and when captured he struggled
desperately, the purse being still io his hand. He, how-
ever, managed to threw it intoan adjacent stoneyard, where
it was found.
The prisoner pleaded guilty, and was committed for six
months, with hard labour.
Henry Pafford and Charlotte Carter were charged with
plucking choice flowers at the Crystal Palace. Page, one of
the gardeners, sew them pluck the flowers, and be gave
them into custody.
The prisoners pleaded very hard, and expressed much
contrition for what they admitted was an act of thought-
lessness.
Mr. Elliott told them that at their time of life they
ought to be ashamed of themselves for their conduct. The
directors of the Crystal Palace spared no expense in pro-
viding for the gratification and amusement of their visitant,
and should be protected from such petty and diagraoeful
acts of robbery as plucking choice flowers. Hoping, how-
ever, that the night's imprisonment they had suffered, to-
gether with the disgrace which they had brought upon
themselves by the exposure, would operate as a caution for
the future, he discharged them.

COTTON.—Lrrnfrooc, Sear. 13.—There has been a
fair demand for cotton to-day, with very full prices. The
Europa's advice, are not in time to affect this market.
The sales are 7,000 balsa, including 2,160 American, 25d.
to 800. ; 4,000 finist, ltd. to 201. ; 700 Agyptian, 25d.

ham, 280. to 290., of which 5,000 are for speculation
and export. To-day's import is 2,040 bales.

COTTON GOODS.—Msscarsmo,EMPT.l.3.—The market I
opened at the commencement of this week with a downward
tendency in the price of cloth, partly attributable to the
inactive state of the Liverpool cotton market, but it was
also partly the natural result of the large business of last
week, and the very considerable rise of prices consequent
thereupon. On Tuesday shirtiop could not be sold without
a reduction of 6d. per piece, but in fact there were few
sellers, most of the cloth being held by speculators, and
these were in few instances willing to relinquish their
ventures without some better reason for a decline than
has yet transpired. There was, no doubt, mush
distrust for the moment created by the refusal of the Liver•
pool brokers to give a return of the stock of cotton. A
little reflection served to show that to whatever extant the
returnsalready published might mislead, it was pretty certain
there could not possibly be an amount of cotton in Liverpool
very materially to affeet prioes. The consequence hasbeen
that holders of both earn and cloth have been gradually re.
pining confidence. During the week and to-day sellers are
asking full rates. There are few, however, if any buyers at
these rates, though it is probable that if no advises from
aTtyelitarter come to band to disturb confidence before next
y. we shall see a renewal of activity among specu-
lators. The market closes quiet but firm.

WOOLLENS. Lame, Sam 13.—The market this
mornieg was one of an average character. There was a
tolerable attendance of buyers in the Coloured Hall, and
several very fair parcels of goods changed bands, chiefly
disgonals and other fancy makes. Plain goods were not
much inquired for. In the White.hall a good business was
transacted in autumn fabrics of various descriptions. Prices
remain firm.

HARDWARE.—BiIifir4GBAN, Sur. 13.—The repats
relative to the date of trade in this town continue to be of
afavourablecharacter. There is a continued increase of orders
given out on account of the home trade ; the effect of this is
that at none of the manufactories in the town are the men
upon short time, and the outworkers are generally better
employed. The complaints so general amongst the manu-
facturers a coop's of mouths ago have subsided, and it is
only in some of the fancy trades that the languor is other
than partially felt. The increasing demand for material is
a convincing proof that trade is generally_ more active,
as is also the fact of the rolling mills being more
busily engaged. The foreign trade continues steady ; the
continental orders in are about an average; there is a
good sprinkling of orders in for the West Indies, our trade
with that quarter being tolerably healthy. The Brazilian
trade is depressed, and with the River Plate there is not
much doing ; the reports as to these markets must, how-
ever, be regarded as exceptional to those which relate
generally to the export trade. The manufacturing trades
carried on in the adjoining district are all of them in a more
healthy state; indeed there is so small an amount of labour
out of employment that it is impossible there au be much
of depression in tarter.

list of voters for the City, ban notified that be will hold2a
court for that purpose at Guildhall, on Monday, the 29th of
September, and following days. The revision for the county
of Middlesex will commence on Thursday oext, before Mr.
Edmond Beale. From the less number of objections taken
this year. the contention will not be so furious
nor the labour so great as in the two preceding re-
visions. Last year there were some seven thousand
objections. This year the number taken by the Liberal
society is 1,200, and by the conservatives 2,200. The ra
Downed John Anthony Coates, whose thousands of objec-
tion notices served "broadcast" upon the liberal voters
created in pevions years so much sensation, has not pot is an
nce. The conservative notices are now signed by Mr.
alreirir Smith, the secretary to the Conservative Ass,icia-
tios. 1,300 new claimants to the franchise appear epos
the new lists, nearly the whole whom are objected to, that
by the cof 940 omervetives. The liberals will be repre-
sented by Mr. W. Albert Jiunt... The follow.

CITY Or LONDON HOSPITAL YOU DISEASES OF THE
CHEW, VICTORIA-PA/PAL—The number of patients relieved
at this institution daring last week was 993, of which 140
were new oases.

OORN.--CAMBIUDGL, SEPT. 13.-We had a large supply

COLCHISTRI, tlerr. 13.-A large supply of wheat, the con-
dition generally good, and the quality superior to what was
expected ; prices declined le. A fair amount of business
transpired. Beans and peas. nossinaL An increased show
of barley, but few buyers, prices rather declining. Harvest
finished.
GUILDFORD, Seer. 13.-The quantity of wheat to-day was
limited for this seams of the year. Five sorts most be
noted lc lower, and middling descriptions la. to 25., Made
being dull and the demaed restricted. Wheat, new, 48a.
to 60s. ; old. Ma. to 66s ; barley, 355. to 40s. ; oats, 245.
to 'LPs.: rye, 365. to 38s. per qr.
FIRRITORD, SEPT. 13.-We have again a very small
market, but rather more new wheat offering, quality oily
moderate and rendition not prime. Old samples sold at
last week's prima, viz, Me. per load for red, sod 40s. pet
load for finest wheats ; prices of new all M. to le. per lead
lower, and very few buyers even at that decline. All spring
corn as before.
Leicerrree, Sen. 13.-At today's cora market there was
a fair show of new remples of wheat, the quality sod con-
dition o' which were irregular. For all descriptions less
money had to be taken ; commies runs were reduced in
value Is. to 24. per quarter ; new red sold at 535. to 58s. ;
new white, Ms. to 595. ; old red, 575. to 61s. ; old white,
We. to 63e. per 36 stone. Barley came to hand mom freely,
and new samples were quite as cheap as last week ; old as
before ; malting, 38s. to 425. per quarter ; grinding, 30s. to
32a. per 30 stone. For oats the demand was steady, and
recent currencies were established ; old, 265. to 30s. ; new,
245. to 265. per 24 stone. In the value of beans (which were
in abort supply) the change was trifling-emotes made 403.
to 435. per quarter. Flour, 391. ; seconds, 41s. ; fine, 44e.
per 20 stone.
NEWCABTLE-DroN.TTNR. Barr. 13.-At our market this
morning we had • very moderate show of wheat from the
growers, amonge which we observed three samples of the
new crop, quality and condition only poor. The magnitude
of the receipts from abroad and the coast, a considerable
portion of which has passed direct into the hands of the
miller', induced our buyer to hold gulf ; hence, at a decline
of Is. per qr. upon old and Is. to 2s. upon new, very few
transactions reunited, an impression prevailing that by
waiting until Tuesday purchases will be made upon some-
what easier terms, an opinion in which we do not partici-
pate. Flour may be called lc per sack cheaper. Grinding
barley less inquired for. Malt tending lower. Very little
demand for been. or peas. Oats sold slowly, although
offered at a reduction of la. per qr. The arrivals this week
are:-Wheat, coastwise, 3,766 qm ; foreign, 11,686. Bar-
ley. coastwise, 127. Malt, enestwies, 10. Oats, coastwise,
1.762 ; foreign, 790. Peas, coastwise, 60. Beans. coast-
wise, 15). Flour, coastwise, 903 sacks ; foreign, 900 brls.
Indian corn flour, 350 sacks.
Noumea, SEPT. 13.-There was • full attendance of
farmers at this market to-day, and • good supply of
wheat sold its reduction of le. to 2a. per qr. upon all de-
scriptions. These was rather snore barley offering, and last
Saturday's prices were fully supported. Flour Is. per track
cheaper. New white wheat (weighing 5711 e. to 631 he. per
bushel), 53a. to 564. ; new red ditto (weighing nibs. to
6.31 be.), 46e. to 54a: ; beat chevalier malting barley, 375. to
38s. per qr. ; Boar, 39a. per seek. Averages :-Wheat,
3,692 qrs. 53.. lid. ; barley, 36 qrs., 325. 3d. On Tuesday
and Wednesday some quantity of rain fell, but since then
the weather has been very favourable for finishing harvest
work, which is now about completed in Norfolk, although
somelittle quantity of barley is not yet carted in • few parts
of the county.
NOTTINGHAM. BKPT. 13.--There was • moderate show se
new wheel at our corn market to-day, but only few sanucks
