RONtERY AT THE LONDON AND BIRMINGHAM RAIL.•
*Ay TERMINI:S.—WiIIiam Ilatherton, a well-dressed man,
and described as a gentleman of private fortune, was indicted
for stealing a purse containing a five-pound note and other
monies, the property of Miss Harriet Lillywhite. The pri-
soner was observed,!in company with two more men at the
Euston-square Station, by a policemen, to brush by the pro-
socutrix, and immediately walk away. They were fel-
lowed, and the prisoner separated from the others, ~vd ran
between some omnibuses, and on a cry being raised the pri-
soner was stopped, and the purse found dose to where
he was taken. 'For the defence, John Murphy said the pri-
soner lodged with him, and had done so for the last three
years ; he was a man of independent property, and paid him
(witness) 11. per week for his board and lodging. On being
r asked how much property the prisoner had, he said he did
not know, neither did he know %hat his property consisted
of, nor where it was situated. The jury found the prisoner

SCOTLAND.

EDINBURGH. CROWN PATROICIOR IN SCOTLAND.—
Although Lurd John Russell has not the same scope for
patronage here that he has in England, still small droppings
are taking place. Just now the Professorship of Oriental
Languages in Marischal College, Aberdeen, is vacant, and
so is a deanery of the Chapel Royal—the first by the death
of Professor Bendy, and the other by the demise of Dr.
Bennie, one of the established mini.try. The gi and patronage
dirertissensent (as Mr. Bunn would say) will take place
among the lawyers. Since Peel's accession in 1841, the
current of Whig promotion has been stopped, and with
some three dozen advocates of both parties since added to
the roll, a plethoric impatience begins to be manifested
amongst the members of the long rote, which must speedily
be relieved somehow. Nature apparently refuses to do any-
thing, and if she continue obstinate, art must be had re-
course to, and in anticipation of what the artificial will
consist cf, some sae that Lord Murray will be raised to the
peerage; that Mr. Solicitor-General Maitland, M.P. fur
Kirkcudbright, will succeed nim on the bench, and that Mr.
James hloacrieff will get the solicitor's gown. Others talk
of the resignation of Lords Jeffrey and Moncrieff, both or
either. All the three were pleaders last century, and there-
fore may be permitted to quit the stage with satisfaction to
the community, as veterans who have done the state some
service. But whither they or others of their brethren are
to be the retiring judges is not yet satisfactorily ascertained,
but it is manifest that some of them must "bine yont."

RAILWAY NSW!.

The market was yesterday heavy for shares and
scrips generally. In North British a partial re-action took
place upon the late continuous decline ; the shares were done
I/. better. In other lines the transactions were of little con-
sideration ; and the indisposition to embark in speculative
dealings was evident. The Scottish Railway Gazelle re-
ceived this evening gives a deplorable account of fhb mischief
done to the North British line by the floods following the
" heavy and continuous rains " on Monday and Tuesday last
week.
The business at Livelpool was limited, without any im-
provement in prices.
The Manchester share-market was very depressed. Prices
were generally lower.
The business at Birmingham was again trifling, and prices
for nearly all descriptions of scrip had a downward tendency.
There is manifestly a growing inclination on the part of
speculators to ease themselves of scrip as speedily as possible.
[Our attention has been directed to our notice of the Bir-
mingham market on Saturday, with reference to Oxford,
Worcester, and Wolverhampton ; by an inadvertence it was
printed, sales at 53. 2d. dis. instead of 51 d.]
At Leeds there was a moderate business done at genet ally
lowering prices. North British (Carlisle Branch), and West
Riding Unions, continued in demand, at a decline of 35. per
share each. Leeds and Thirsk lowered 55., and Ormskirks
7s. Gd. per share. Huddersfield and Manchester realised Is.
per share more.

DEATH OF COLONEL LORD JOHN SOMERSET.—CoIoneI
the Hon. Lord John Thomas Henry Somerset, Inspecting
Field Officer of the Bristol district, died on Saturday last at
Weston-super-Mare, in the 60th year of his age. He had
been ill for some months, and had removed to Weston-sur-
Mare under the advice of his medical attendants. Lord I.pe T.
Somerset was a son of Henry the fifth duke, brother of the
late, and uncle of the present Duke of Beaufort. His lord-
ship was born on the 30th August, 1787, and was married on
the 4th December, 1846, to the Lady Catherine Anaesley,
daughter of Arthur first Earl of Mountnorris. Lord John
Somerset catered the army at an early age. He was at the
battle of Waterloo as a staff officer, and received an honorary
medal. He was appointed Inspecting Field Officer of the
Bristol district a few years since, on the promotion of
Colonel Faunce.

NAVAL.

PORTSMOrTR, MONDAY.--A court-martial was assembled
on board the Victory this morning to try Lieut. C. G.
Crawley of the Avenger steam-frigate, by his own request,
on a charge of improper conduct. The court was composed
of Rear-admiral Hyde Parker, president ; Captains, Pasco,
of the Victory, Chads, of the Excellent, Williams, of the
Avenger, Lushington, of the Retribution, and Stanley, of
the Rattlesnake. It was believed that the charge was the
result of a conspiracy between the boy (who was his servant)
and four or five of the ship's company wlao had been punished
for neglect of duty. The finding of the court was, " The
court as of opinion that the charge has not been proved against
Licut. Crawley, and it appears to be frivolous and vexatious,
and the court doth adjudge him, the said Lieut. Crawley, to
be fully acquitted," The president added, " I have great
pleasure in returning you your sword, Licut. Crawley,
and at the same time beg to state that you leave this
court without the slightest blemish on your character."
The St. Vincent arrived at Spithead from the squadron
of evolution this day. She can bring no news, having
left the squadron before the Avenger and the Retribu-
tion. The Maria Somes transport arrived here on Satur-
day from the Cape of Good Hope, which she left on
August 4. The Resistance, from Monte Video, bad
reached Simon's Bay with the reserve battalion of the 45th
regiment, and was to be followed by the Apollo with the 73rd
regiment, which was daily expected. There is no confirma-
tion of the death of Sir Cornwallis Ricketts, Bart., com-
mander of the Ilelena, and a hope, therefore, is entertained,
although most of the officers of that ship had been unable to
do their duty, that the report of his death is incorrect.;
The Gladiator, st. v., Captain Robb, has completed her ,
repairs at Woolwich. It is reported that she is to be placed
at the disposal of Sir Henry Pottinger, to convey that gallant
officer to the seat of his new government. The Sidon, s. f.,

We have received telegraphic notice that the Royal
Mail Company's steamer the Medway, Captain
Andrews, has arrived at Southampton, with the West
India and Mexican mails. She brings no news of
importance from Mexico. Up to the moment of
sailing everything was quiet.
Santa Anna was at bis country seat, dissatisfied
with his reception at Vera Cruz. Commodore Connor
was too pacific, and was superseded by Commodore
Party. The Americans had made an attack on a small
fort, but had made no impression on it. The manner in
which the attack was made is said to have been very
discreditable to the Americans.

DEVONSIMIE.

A DOUBLE SUICIDE ATliiirraTl-On Friday week, two
factory girls, Mary Ann Oldridge and Jane Smith, were
visited by a man of indifferent character, from whom Old-
ridge contrived to possess herself of half-a-crown to get some
liquor with, and never returned, the other following her,
The man subsequently meeting with them, threatened to
expose them to their employer, Mr. Newbery, silk factor, if
they did not immediately return him his half-crown. Not
having sufficient to make up the required sum, the threat ap-
pearedto operate so powerfully upon their minds, that they
went to the neighbouring chemist and purchased 3d. worth
of arsenic, with which they resolved to destroy themselves.
They then returned to work at the factory, and on leaving
at night went to a public-house kept by a person named
Taylor, where they mixed the poison in some cider and
drank it. Oldridge died in dreadful agony on Wednesday,
and Smith in twenty-four hours after. On Friday last an
inquest was held on the bodies of the unfortunate women,
when the jury, after several hours' deliberation, returned a
verdict of fete de se. Both bodies were interred late at
night in the parish churchyard.
SANITARY STATE or PLINOUTII.—A correspondent
states that the inquiries, made under direction of the Local
Health of Towns' Association at Plymouth, have terminated,
and have elicited some 'twain facts. Eleven thousand
persons (nearly one-third of the population) live in single
rooms. There arc 625 rooms with four inmates in each
room, 320 with five, 266 with six, 112 with seven, 49 with
eight, 14 with nine, 8 with ten inmates and upwards. There
are 9.56 houses without any drain, 753 without town water
laid on, and 607 without privy or water-closet.

A telegraphic despatch has heed received in Paris,
announcing the safe arrival of the French Princes at
Vittoria on the evening of the 3rd inst., from whence
the}• would proceed onwards the following morning
to Burgos, and proposed reaching Madrid in the
course of this day. According to the French accounts,
throughout the journey to Vittoria, they had received
rcom the authorities every possible testimony of
respect, and :tom the populace demonstrations of the
liveliest enthusiasm.
The visit of the Marquis of Normanby to Count
Mole has caused much speculation in Paris. It is slid
that M. Thiers has been invited by the British Minis-
ter t 3 Paris, to deliver his opinion on the Spanish
affair, which is calculated to produce a coolness
between France and England.
In Madrid, on the 29th, there appear to have been
apprehensions of a movement in some of the pro-
inces. Cabrera was understood to have rn 'vest at
Valencia. Speaking of the progress of the Dukes
d'Aumale and de Montpensier through Spain, a letter
;corn Bayonne says:—Although there is no reason to
apprehend disturbance, the authorities are evidently
I uneasy respecting the Prince's journey through the
provinces. Very strict orders have been given to the
Spanish police to be vigilant, and there Rill be a
strong escort throughout the journey. It is said that
some Spaniards have sworn not to allow the Duke
de Montpensier to reach Madrid.

INCENDIARY FlRE3.—We(Essex Herald) briefly noticsd
that a fire occurred on Sunday, the 13th instant, upon a farm
in the occupation of Mr. J. Brewer, at Docking. Three
stacks, one of barley, one of wheat, and the other of beans,
peas, and oats, stood in a row, and there is every reason to
believe the fire was wilfully occasioned, two of the stacks
being seen to be on fire at the north end, and both were
totally consumed, but a third, owing to the prompt assist-
ance of those first on the spot, was saved.-1 wo boys,
named Frost and Wakelin, having been apprehended, were
on Wednesday taken before 0. S. Onley and S. W. Basil!,
Esqrs., when several witnesses spoke to seeing the pri-
soners at different times between seven and eight the same
evening. Frost's amount was that he was in bed by half-
past six, and Wakelin stated that he was at home by
seven. The magistrates remanded both the prisoners until
Saturday, when they were again brought up and further
remanded until Wednesday. Itmay be in the remembrance of
our readers that in 1844 the town of Braintree was kept in a state
of continual agitation and alarm by incendiary fires. Within
a circle of a quarter of a mile there were four, and five oc-
curred within three miles of the centre of the town. Every
endeavour to detect the perpetrators was unavailing ; a cora-
-1 mittee sat for several weeks to alleviate the distresses of those
who had lost their goods, and to take measures fur the dis-
covery and punishment of the offenders; rewards of 1001.
each, with an additional 1001. and free pardon from govern-
ment, were offered; innocent persans were apprehended on
suspicion, and every circumstance appearing to offer the
slightest clue was fully investigated, but all remained a
mystery until a twelvemonth afterwards it was discovered by
the confession of some of the parties that six of the fires were
occasioned by four boys for no earthly or conceivable motive
but the mere love of mischief. At the summer assizes, 1845,
two of them, Alfred Coote and Isaiah Fish, were tried before
Chief Justice Tindal, and transported for 15 years. Since
that time the neighbourhood of Braintree has been undis-
turbed by fires.

Coates, and two troops under their Jemadars, to keep the
°hauls on the Kurnool side. The tappel was atopned thr-ugh
the Ghaut the day before the detachment passed, and when
the above detachment of the 19th N.I. was threading the
Ghent, the Poligar attacked Lieut. W. and &company of the
19th N. 1., at Giddelore, to which place they had tome from
Cumbum, to check his progress.
An attempt wee made during the night of the 22nd, but
some of the rebels falling at the first fire they retreated.
Next day es many as 5,000, w ith some 20 gin**, again attacked
Giddaloor. Lieut. W. took his position in a ruined fort, and
after fighting till b p.m., and the Talualdar and four sepoys
being killed and several wounded, and his ammunition also
nearly expended, they bravely rushed on with their
bayonets, and forced the rebels hack, killing between one
and two hundred, haying captured six gingals and several
other arms, Sce. Lieut. W. then found it necessary to retreat
on Served, where he could procure provisions for his men,
Giddalnor having been entirely cleared out during the fight.
The other detachment under Captain Nott, on crossing the
Gheut at half past three, P.M., hearing of the above attack,
halted for a few minutes to clean their arme—havingoserched
through pouring rain and up steep hills since four o'clock
P.m.—and then went on immediately to Mondlepeud, where
the rebels were reported to be in great force. Having
'reached this place at five o'clock P. M., a party of
horse who had been sent to reconnoitre, reported the
rebels getting ready, and the torn toms beating to
arms, we went to work instanter; the light company
under Lieut. Clogstonn supported by the grenadiers
under Lieut. Newlyn, taking the right of the town : the
irregulars under •
Lieut. Russell taking the left. The
reserve of two Companies was under the command of
Captain 1. At the first charge a Sawa- was wounded,. anti
in a few minutes afterwards another was killad ; but
"sieve qui petit." was the order of the day, and th:• quick-
ness of the attack so astonished the rebels, that in an hour
we had taken the fort, arms, and ammunition, also about 30
prisoners,—as teeny having falhn during the fight. Nur-
ume Reddy unfortunately escaped at the outset, and con-
cealed himself in the gardens on the banks of the river,
from whence he escaped during the night ; his force is en-
tirely dispersed, and he himself is closely tracked in the
hale. The Amildee was released. and also the Vakeel ;
in the hurry they could not take them away. A Sirchissunt
se Omegans*, wee serried off end killed. Next
we went on to Kota Kota, which we found deserted.
The force broke up to-day ; the horse returning at° Gun-
pallay, and the foot to that delightful station, Cuddapah,
leaving one company behind to guard the Ghauts.

WELLINGTON STATUE.—Mr. C. R. Cockerell, R.A.,
the architect, has addressed a letter to the Times, on the
subject of this much-talked-about statue, and added, "one
more voice to the outcry already so justly raised against the
erection of the statue on the arch at Hyde Park-corner."
He calls it a solecism in art, seriously involving the honour
of the country. "The solecism consists," he says, "in the
proposition to place a statue of colossal dimensions as an
ornament to a triumphal arch of disproportionate magni-
tude, so that the ornament and the principal are in danger
of changing places, and the major may become the subor-
dinate of the minor ; and again, in proposing to place that
ornament on an axis at right angles with that of the arch
itself." An unparalleled hero, it is said, may have an un-
paralleled position ; hut in questions of this nature, he pro-
perly observes, we naturally turn to classical examples. We!
We wish the committee w. uld ! All B, lion's examples in
his book on the triumphal arches of Home arc against this
infatuated sub-committee; the architect of the arch, Mr.
Decimus Burton himself, is against its being there; the
artists, the journals. and the good sense of the country have
denounced it. " Had the sub-committee condescended," he
says, " to seek the advice of professional men, the disgrace
they are preparing for themselves, and the trouble to the
public in replacing this fine work in an accessible and proper
site might have been spared." Come down it must is Mr.
Cockercll's belief and hope, and his opinion is important.

REMNEKAHLE PHENOMENON.—The sea, at a short die-
tame from the coast here (says the Aberdeen Herald) has
presented same remarkable appearances daring the present
week. On Tuesday last, about four o'clock in the afternoon,
about low water, the sea, for about all yards from the share,
and along the coast from the Cove to the bay of Niog, ap-
peered of a purple colour, and continued to darken as the
afternoon advanced. Our informant, who, with a large
number of fishermen, Omen cd the appearance, thinking it
might arise from any reflection of the sky, went out in a
boat and examined the water. To his astonishment he
thund the boa: actually in a sea of purple, and the water of
a glutimma r.ature, containing so much colouring matter
that it actually died red whatever object it touched. No
effluvia could be perceived arising from the water. As the
tide rise the coloured matter peeked chaser in shore, and
continued to become darker and darker. Next afternoon,
the same appearances were observed to occur, hot not to such
an nvt::nt. .Fothing of the kind acems ever to kave, bees

MONEY MARKET.

TUESDAY EVENINO.
The funds are still in decline. Consols left off 9.5 s to 4 for
money, and 954 to I for account. The fears for Ireland, and
the Spanish question, are still the weight upon the market.
Exchequer-bills, lls. to 14s. premium. India Bonds, 20s.
to 235. premium. Bank Stock for account, 210 to 11. The
absence of the Hebrew dealers, on account of their particular
holidays, contributed to render business more inactive than
perhaps otherwise it might have been.
In the early part of the day there was some movement in
Spanish bonds, but it was not long sustained, and prices be-
came heavy, and drooped, the Fives to 261 to ; the Threes,
374 to ; the Deferred, 164 to I ; Passive, 54 to /. Portu-
guese, 41 to 3. Mexican, 241 to 5. Brazilian, 89 to 90.
Peruvian, 37t0 9. Dutch Two-and a-Half per cents, 591 to
4; the Fours, 944 to I.
Foreign exchange was rather higher on Amsterdam and
Paris; on Vienna and Trieste, rather lower. The rates
negotiated were, on Amsterdam 12.7 to 4 ; on Rotterdam,
12.71 to ; on Antwerp, 26.5; on Hamburgh, 13.121 to 13 ;
on Frankfurt, 121#, to ; on Paris, 25.974 to 26; on Vienna,
10.74 to 85 ; on Trieste, 10.8 to 9; on Lzahorn. 30.50; on

COMMERCIAL 4 MARKETS.

MONEY MARKET & CITY INTELLIGENCE.
Quarter to Three O'C/ea.—The funds opened very
heavy this morning, and Consols were as I,:re et one time as
951 toy for money, and 95; to for account, but h.,vo reco-
vered since to 9.51 to ' for money, and 951 to I for time. Ex-
chequer Bills, 10v. to 14e. premium.
3 he foreign market was also more depressed in the earlier
part of the day, but is rather more firm now, and prices
with little variation from yesterday. Spanish Fives, 261 to
1, the Threes 371 to I. Portuguese, however tell to 40 to
2. Mexican, 24i to 5. The speculator, and dealers are
eagerly waiting for intelligence of decisive movements in
some direction or other of the Peninsula.
AtSTAlA.—According to athices from Vienna of
the 14th instant, it appears certain the Minister of Finance
had come to the resolution of intert ring for the relief of the
financial embarrassments which had hrought on a crisis in
the money market of that city. Ilia intention was to
make an advance to the mercantile interests of four
or five rel'llons of florins. This ii.tlmation was
speedily turned to account, as might be expected, by the spe-
culators in stveks and shares, and a general rise was the
consequence, especially in railway shares. The fact speaks
for the general impoliey of lending the public money fur the
suppon:of mercantile credit, which had not cuff red so meek
from losses incurred throur,li en unfavourable and stagnant
state of commercial affairs, as from reckless speculations on
the Stock Exchange, The millions to be advanced were
destined doubtless fer employment in the same direction.
The institutim of a new loan bunk, recently announced,
will tend to favour still more the sort of stock and share spe-
culations rArered to. The national bark advances only two-
thirds ,i the value on public securities, charging 4 per cent..
but not on shares at all. The savings oink makes advances
on shares against an interest of 4; or 5 per cent. The new
bank is tc, be supported, as,aid, by the State, Auld the tide
of interest legally fixed at 5 per asst. The Austrian
government, which does not enjoy, the best rep":
tation for the skilful management of its financial

quent price. Lambs fetched from 20s. to 325. Business was

TURKZT.—The qualities of raw Silk in the market
at Constantinople, on the Ist September, were so mixed that
buyers preferred to transact business at Brou.uia, the central
place of production, and the more so as the last advice' from
that quarter reported a fall of prices, with the probability
of a still further decline. Considerable funds were
consequently dispatched there with orders of purchase :
as might naturally be concluded the prices were raised forth-
with, which put a stop to business. As the accounts from
England and France were not encouraging, and as indeed
they contemplated a further decline of prices upon those
quoted by the previous post, it was understood that the
buyers could not give way to the rise demanded,
therefore that few transactions could be managed.
It was observed that lower rates of prices were indispensable
for helping to increase the consumption of the manufactured
products by their cheapness. As the news from China
announced quantities of Silk for shipment sufficient for the
wants of the Silk manufacture haduro for the year if not
beyond, the usual speculators ceased to present them
selves altogether in the Constantinople market. The
prices at Brooms were: for blestoupe L. 0., medium
and superior, 138 to 145 piastres; 145 to 155. for
sales; 185 to 172 p. for the Dimitache ; 130 to 135 for the
Mestoups C. l 7 ; 127 to 128 for the Brooms L. G. ; 122 to
125 for the Brows& C. 0. ; 140 to 145 for the miles of Bite-
gik. Persian silks were much sought after at Constantino-
ple, and sales were made at 135 to 145 piastre* the oka, ac-
cording to quality.
The sales of Woollen Cloths, on occasion of the Remazan
at Constantinople, were not proportioned to those of last
year. The shopkeepers were sufficiently in stock from old
purchases, and were in want of little beyond. The sales by
retail, however, were also of little importance. The quan-
tity of Woollens at market was not large, and being held in
few hands the prices were well sustained. Extra fine Cloth,
from London, was quoted 27 to 271; Cassimeres, 23.
