yue UIOANTIC LIHIHITIUY CLOCK.

Mr. C. Shepherd's electric cluck, which is to he placed
over the south entrance of the transept, is now completed.
The mechanism fur musing the monster hands is extremely
simple, as the actual impelling power is a series of eleetro
magnets which move the escapement sod push the minute
hand Messiest at each Mat of the pendulum, by which the
clectro magnets are brought into action. The minute hand
is 16 feet lung. One of the peculiar features of Mr. Shep-
herd's electric clucks is the striking apparatus, which is an
contrived that at each hour a separate series of electm
magnets are brought into action and pull the hammer to
the list.

PRINCE ALBERT has manifested the deep interest
which he feels in the operations of the Society for Improv-
ing the Condition of the Working Classes, by engaging to
build, at his own expense, an Exhibition Model House, for
four families, and to place the same in the stable-yard at
the west end of the ca airy barracks, Hyde-park, immedi-
ately opposite the Exhibition building. The intended house
is to be of hollow brick, with fire-proof &ors :and fiat
roof; showing the applicability of these important prin-
ciples to houses of but very moderate dimensions.

tickets for the Great Exhibition has been entrusted to

EGYPT.

We find the following in the Journal des Debats :
—" The various letters which we receive from the
Levant agree in sayingthat the differences whichhad
arisen between the Sultan and the Viceroy of Egypt
appear as far removed Meyer from being amicably set-
tled. The Divan of Constantinople will give up none
of its pretensions; it still clamis the reduction of
the Egyptian army, the repeal of the measures for
providing for fresh armaments, and the introduction
Into the Egyptian government of some of the liberal
reforms which have distinguished the administration
of lteschid Pasha. On the other hand, the Viceroy,
Abbas Paella, resists, and latterly he has called to
him the charges d'affaires of the powers which gua-
ranteed the treaties of 1840, to solicit the interven-
tion of their governments in his favour, and in the in-
terest of the treaties on which lie pretends to found
his right of resistance even by force of arms. Inde-
pendently of his quarrel with the divan of Constanti-
nople,Abbas Pacha appears tobe entering on one also
with the Consul-General of France, in consequence of
the rigour with which he dismisses all the Frenchmen
who were formerly employed in the public service,
and that, frequently in the face of positive contracts
and engagements. They whose term of ser-
vice had finished, have no complaint to make,'
but those who had entered into contracts with
the 'Egyptian government have applied to!
the French consul, and demand at least an indem-1
nity, which the ministers of Abbas Pasha refuse to
grant. Such is the state of affairs; it has lately
been becoming much worse, but we cannot believe
but that it will be settled by amicable means."

MR. HOBBS'S MODE OF PICKING LOCKS. His
mode of working, as we are told, is this:—He applies a
lever to press the bolt in a backward direction, and then
proceeds, by means of instruments previously manufactured,
to lift the tumblers of the lock one by one, and retain them
in their right places. When the last tumbler is lifted, the
bolt flies back. Thirty days were given to Mr. Hobbs for
his attack on the Bramah ; and to make his instruments he
was allowed to take impressions of the key and the top of
the wards. Dry after day he was shut up alone with the
lock, noes being permitted to enter the room while he was
at work; and, with the aid of "thieves' wax," a hinged
mirror in the keyhole, a strong light, all sorts of odd instru-
ments, and his own great cleverness, he has succeeded iu the
task. For our own part we did not think that any lock ceilidhe
found, made at a cost which would admit of sale, to resist
such appliances, anal are astonished that Messrs. Bra:nab
consented to submit it to such practices for so long a period.
Whether, after all, Messrs. Bramah's challenge, as written
on the lock, has been met by Mr. Hobbs, is • question : we
think not, spite of the arbitrators' award. The challenge
was, "The artist who can make an instrument that will
pick or open this lock, shall receive 200 guineas reward the
moment it as produced." Where is the instrument ? As to
the American's own lock, the " Parantoptic," it is a woo-
lderful piece of mechanism, put by its price irate out of the
list of commercial locks ; but whether this is even impreg-
nable remaiss to be seen, and will, we hope, be tried. le

COMMERCIAL AND MARKETS

WEEKLY SUMMARY OF THE PRODUCE
MARKETS.

MINCING-LANE, SATURDAY MORNING.

The colonial markets this week have been rather
quiet, and for some descriptionsuf produce lower rates have
been accepted. For Sugar there has been more demand,
and former quotations have been generally obtained. The
public sales of Coffee have been large, and occasionally im-
porters have accepted prices about Is. per cwt. below those
previously current for the plantation kinds of Ceylon ; in
other sorts there has not been any alteration. In Spice the
only change to notice is in the value of East India Ginger,
which has again been sold at prices in favour of the buyers,
while Pimento also has fallen fully td. per lb. Saltpetre
continues flat The public Tea sale went off flatly, but
nevertheless 5,500 packages were sold out of 16,700; prices
were nut materially altered.

ROMAN STATES.

ROME, Orr. 14.
In no country, and at no period, does history pre-
sent us with a more violent revulsion of popular feel-
ing towards one individual, and that individual a
Il sovereign, than the example we have at present be-
fore us in this city. It was on this very day, the
14th of October, four years ago, that Pio Nono wit-
nessed a manifestation of the attachment of his peo-
ple, well suited to the fervent character of the south,
and to the feelings of enthusiasm which his newly-
initiated, and alas, short-lived political concessions
gave rise to. His Holiness had been to spend the
day at his palace of Castel Gandolfo, on the shores
of the lake of Albano, and in the afternoon, some
hours befire he was expected, the streets in the
direction of the Porta San Giovanni began to be
crowded, the various battalions of civic guard awaited
him on the Piazza, and, towards evening, a dense
crowd assembled before the Quirinal, the adjacent
palaces were illuminated, and multitudes were to be
seen lining every roof whence a view of the cortege
I was to be obtained. The distant shouts, the vivas
of the crowd as the beloved sovereign approached,
I then the deep silence and the solemn benediction,
reverentially responded to by kneeling thousands,
arc still vivid in everybody's recollection who was in
Rome at the time. The love of their pontiff was
leading the Romans to love their religion also. Now
alas, how many of them renounce, as far as they
dare, the very principles of Christianity out of hostility
to their ecclesiastical rulers! The aspect of the city
just now presents no less a contrast to the gaiety
prevalent at the period to which I have alluded, than
• the manner in which the sovereign is now received,when
' he comes abroad does to the joyous transports pro-
duced by his presence four years ago. Homo is most
lugubrious, and its sadness is especially observable
in this month, which, in former times, used to be
consecrated to holiday keeping and festivities. Little
heart have the Romans to sing and dance this year.
They arc ground down by the continual oppressions
of die police, and are too glad to find the day get'
over without changing their own homes for the
inside of a jail. Continual arrests thin the ranks,'
although they do not diminishtho political spirit of

a rare and venerable wine, worthy of the palate of tho

sure in giving such a wine to him ; a pleasure such as an
artist [eels in the applause of a flinger. I ask, with
bumble awe, who might claim the distinction of being the
best judge of port ? I learn the name. It is a good name,
—a name as good as bank notes ; for, scrawled at the foot
of oblong little documents, it commands the payment of
thousands of pounds, and the awe of hundreds of citizens.
I cherish that name iu my memory ; and if I ever meet the
bearer (may it be at a feast!) I rather think I shall ho
very civil to him. But " whether draggest thou me, 0

was thee compelled to disrate the mate, and if he had out
done se, there would have been a mutiny in the ship. Ho
had repeatedly told the mate not to strike the men.
Mr. Yardley—What say you to this, Mr. Bartlett ?
Complainant—l struck a man with a bucket, certainly.
Mr. Yardley—What did you do that for ?
Complainant—Deceits.: he refused to obey my orders.
Mr. Yardley—ls it true yuu knocked down other men?
Complainant—Yes; if they refused to obey my orders I
knocked them down. I struck a man, and all hands
turned to in the morning, and the captain told them to beat
me, and they did so.
Captain Lemon—l deny that emphatically. Is it likely
I would tell the men to heat one of the odiecrs of the ship?
Mr. Yardley asked the mate what amount of necessity
there was for knocking doss n one man and cutting another's
head open with a bucket?
The mate replied there was a necessity. If a mar dis-
obeyed orders he knocked him down. The man he knocked
down with a bu:ket refused to obey orders.
Captain Lem-n—The men aiwaye obeyed me and the first
officer. I never had occasion to knock down a siiiler in my
life. aud I have been a commander of large ships many years.
Mr. Yardley-1 mint say I have heard something of this
knee king down sort of di.eipline in foreign ships before;
but I am very happy to say captains in the English mer-
chant service won't couutenance it. It's abominable.
Cap sin Leman—lle car:seal a loaded pistol about with
Lim on board, and swore he would shout some w the men.
Complainant—l had a loaded pistol in my berth.
Mr. Yardley-I'er what purpose ?
Complainant—l said I would blow their brains out if they
diseaLeyed my orders.
Mr. Yardley—Well, upon my word, this is a strange case.
Complainant—The crew knocked Die down, sir. All of
them tell upon me—sia or seven of them.
Captain Leman-1 was below when the row commenced.
I jmnped out of my berth, and went upon deck to veil
the disturbance.
Mr. Yardley—You were not only justice, :1 in disrating
him, but it is very much to your credit teat you did so.
You could do no less. Have you any objectS.o to pay him
his T. ages up to the 13th of October ?
Captain Lean—None whatever, sir.
Mr. Yortlavy—Vcry well; pay him &balance of It. sa. SI
and costs. _

Complainant—The captain sap I mu not qualified. I
shoultt like him to prove it.
Mr. Yardlry-1 don't think you are, indeed, if you
knock down 111:31111:11. You are not a fit prsou fur au °dicer

lyre it would stand at x! year. Or, as he has been ezpend-

if he had valued at the same rate last year, would his
eolance he the better for it this ? I say, thew, it is a fallacy
to Pat all the loss down in that way, tbr If yes value it so
tOt yna must another. If all the money Mr. Mechi
is to he found in the land, it comes out

REVIEW OF THE FOREIGN CORN TRADE.

(Prom the Mark-Lane Empress.)

The latest accounts from Danzig (23rd September) inform

us that sellers of wheat had bect7nie ratherr more 'anxious
to realise, and that a reduction on previous rates had been
submitted to without leading to transactions of much im-
portance. Some 601hs. new mixed wheat had been sold at
equal to 335. to 315., and old of 61 to 621bs. had been
offered at 375. per qr., free on hoard. There was very
little being shipped to Great Britain, and freights were
exceedingly low; for London vessels had been offered at
2s. 2d. per qr. Rye had, owing to a demand from the in •
tenor, brought high rates—say 295. per qr. for parcels
weighing 571 lbs. per bushel.
From Konigsberg wo learn that after three weeks rough,
wet weather a favourable change had taken place, and from
the 16th to the 22nd the weather had been tine. The
wheat crop had, with the exception of a small portion re-
maining iu the fields, been harvested in dry condition, and
the rye having been all secured before the rain set in, had
been carried tolerably. The latter crop was, however, said
to be very short; and prices having risen at Berlin, Stet-
tin, tic.. the article had advanced to 275. 61. per qr. at
Konigsberg. In wheat little or nothing had been done
for export, the prices asked having preveuted business ;
611 be. high mixed was then quoted 335. 6d. ; mixed,
375. Gd.; and red, of the same weight, 365. Gd. per qr. free
on board.
At Stettin, on the 24th inst., rye was in lively request,
and prices had, in a comparatively short period, risen 4s. to
6s. per qr. Thu supplies of wheat had been small, and
60 lbs. to 611 be. ycUow Silesian was then quoted 31e. 6d.,
while for Pomeranian of 62 lbs. weight 365. Gtl. per qr. free
on board knit been asked. Of new barley scarcely any had
come forward. The nominal price for subs. to 52 lbs.
Oderbruck was 20s. 6d. per qr.
Letters from Stralsund, dated Sept. 22, inform us that
stocks of old corn had become greatly reduced, and hardly
any new having appeared, nothing of interest had
transpired. In this position of affairs quotations can, of
pewee, be but little depended upon; and the same may
be said to be the case at the Lower Baltic ports generally.
At Hamburg, on Tuesday, prices of wheat were precisely
the some as the preceding post-day—say 375. Gd. for 60 to
60 lbs. red Upland, and 395. 3d. per qr. free on board for
61 to 62 lbs. Wahren. Seale barley had been enquired for;
and for a small lot of new, weighing only 54:11 tin per bushel,
265. 6d. per qr. had been offered and refused. New barley
from the Banish Islands, weighing.i3 lbs., had been offered,
deliverable in October, at 203. to 20. i. 31 per qr. New
Danish oats, of 3S lbs. weight, might have been bought at
16.. Gd.

From Holland the accounts speak badly of potatoes ; and
from present appearances there is little prospect of ship-
ments of grain being made from thence to this country,
excepting perhaps a few oats.
Our trench advices inform us that farmers had com-
menced the preparation of the soil for autumn-sowing.

A COUNTY COURT JUDGE VERSUS A

amenable to the fair criticism of the press, the act of Mr.
Whitty was one not within the jurisdiction of the law; and
should his honour be of a different opinion, he would advise
. his client, rather than pay. any fine, to go to prison for the
term which his honour might decide.
' The learned Judge here recalled the officer of the court,
' Mr. Sumner, who, in answer to some questions from his
I honour. said that he knew of many eases wherein insults
to the judge and the officers of the court had been given,
chiefly, he believed, in consequence of these placards. That
very morning • person in court had insulted the officers
before the judge took his mat.
The Judge—is that person in court ?
Witness—lle is, your honour. (Ile then pointed out one
of the reporters for the Albios.)
, I Judge—What were the words used?
. .

Wittier—lle asked me to give him a chair; and u he
bad been pointed out to me as one of the reporters for the
Juurne, I refused, when he said that I was as mad as my
master. _ _

----•
Judge (to the reporter)—Stand up, there.
The reporter stood up.
Judge—What is your name ?
Reporter—Simon Harker.
Judge—Let this ease stand over until the other is dis-
posed of.
The learned Judge then went over the evidence of Mr.
Sumner and the comments of the learned counsel, elating
that he eons:limed the offence to be one of great
enormity, and, for the protection of the court, and as an
I example to other, he inflicted the full penalty of SI., or
'sees days' imprisonment in Uneasier Gaol. lie was sor
taw law did sat Lwow a Ems asowirgesalily, MA be felt
bound to inflict the very highest that the act allowed.
Mr. Whitty was then ordered into the custody of the
bailiff, and placed in the dock appropriated to defendants,
where, for more than three hours, he remained, while some
other eases arising out of the same transaction, were pro.
ended with.
