LINCOLNSHIRE.

.....
Aw INQCERT was held at Mablethorpe on Tuesday, on
the bodies of the three youths, Mackinder, Gumless, and
Wakelin, who were unfortunately drowned on the previous
day, whilst bathing with their school-fellows. The jury,
after viewing the bodies and examining Mr. Rogers, the
schoolmaster, and other witnesses, returned a verdict of
" Accidentally drowned."

Yesterday the inquest on the body of a man found is the
cesspool at Chesterfield, mentioned in the Daily News of
Monday, was resumed. The mother of the deceased identi-
fied some of the clothes found as having belonged to her
son, he having worn them the day she last saw him. She
also identified a pocket-handerchief found, as having be-
longed to him. Thomas Harvey deposed to hear-
ing a scuffle in Platt's shop on the 7th of December,
attended with deep moaning, and he then declared
he thought a murder had been committed. He subse-
quently ascertained that Platt was in the shop, and would
not allow him to come in, alleging ha bad been unwell.
Elizabeth Harvey confirmed this testimony, adding that
shortly afterwards Platt came into her sister's house with
his left hand cut and covered with blood. James Redford
deposed to a voluntary statement made in the lock-up by
Platt, declaring his innocence of the murder, and accounting
for his possession of deceased's watch. John Holbrook de-
posed that the deceased Collis told him on December 7th,
that he was going to call on a butcher who owed him some
money, and would try to get it. He never saw Collis again.
On the same eveni tar he passed the prisoner's shopoand noticed
• light inside, and that clothes had been hung up to
I prevent any person peeping through the crevices. The watch
that had belonged to Collis was produced and identified.
Henry Knight proved that he received it from Platte to
pledge, and gave him the money he got for it. He also
bought a pair of boots of Platt, which were declared by
I Collis's mother to have belonged to him. The inquest was
proceeding when the despatch was sent off.

KENT.

THE RECENT HASTT A7O;IENTATIO,t OF THE PASSET4-
OERS' FARES by the South-Eastern Railway Company has
aroused, says the Kent Ihrald, a general feeling of indigna-
tion throughout the county. " What infatuation has pos-
eeesed the direction in this matter," continues the same
journal, "we are at a loss to conceive. No Imaginable tem-
porary gain can compensate for the injury they will inflict
on themselves by alienating the public sympathy from their
undertaking. The alteration appears entirely uncalled for,
whether we look to the steadily increasing weekly receipts,
or to the repeated declarations amounting to a
pledge that the directors looked to low fares and
ample accommodation for the public as the beet
source of success to the railway. The time chosen is most
inappropriate, the manner of making the increase without
announcement or attempted initial:anon, is most objection-
able. Parliament has separated and the rival lines are dis-
posed of, when the company which has obtained so much
support by its fair promises and liberal previous conduct, all
at once resolve upon a most obnoxious imposition. That
they will upon re-consideration retrace the false step they
have made, false in every sense of the word, we will not
allow ourselves to doubt. Should they net, the inhabitants
of Kent and the public generally must and will find the
means of impressing the directors with the truth of the prin-
ciples they have themselves on many occasions so forcibly
and unanswerably laid down."
London, England, 1846-09-11

—" I can only sure you a few lines ; the latest iota lligence
received from the camp. On Sunday morning last (the 12th)
at daylight. 2.50 men of the regiment, under tour officers and
the doctor, were marched off to the scene of d sturbance,
which is said to be about 70 miles from Cuddapak. Since
their departure the rain has come down incessantly, so they
have not been able to reach the place ; the riven being so
swollen that they aro forced to remain on this aide until rafts
can be prepared. On the 17th the detachment was at Nossum.
detained by another river which they hoped to cross that day,
Narsimma Reddee and his numerous retinue were then in a
town about 18 miles from our party; he is surrounded by
150 of the Kurnool Irregular Horse, under the command
of Lieutenant Russell. Our men will hem him in on the '
other side; he will probably make a desperate fight.
Ho has sent word to say he has got six thousand fighting
men with him ; our commandant is told fur a certainty
that he has 2,000, and most likely many more, as some
petty rajah is assisting him, and has given him 400
Arabs. He has displaced the (tahsildar) native magis-
trate of a town ahuut thirty miles from this ; he has cut
off his ear and X.ken him away. He has also sent word
to another man that ho had better be on the look out,
as he intends to come and ettack all the towns in the
district. He also wrote to the Jemadar of Mr. Russell's
horse to come and side with him, but the man sent
word back to decline the invitation. If our troops suc-
ceed in crossing the river, they hope to come up with the
rebels on the night of the 18th. The officers have been
warned that the rebels intend to take up their position
in a strong fort en the top of a hill, which they have
for some mnoths put been stocking with ammunition ;
if this proves true, our party cannot, I suppose, attack them
before the arrival of arti levy and a European corps from
Rellary. The collector and his assistant, with their peons,
have gone out with the party. The heaviness of the rain is
a great hindrance. The villages for many miles from Cud-
dapah have been plundered, and the inhabitants have taken
Hight."—Athenream, July 23,
VIZAGAPATAM, J1.3.r 14.—1 understand that the hill
tribes in the Goomsoor Zemindary are in a very dis-
turbed state, owing, I believe, to the active me.sures
adopted by the government agent for suppressing the
Menah sacrifices; and hostilities are expected ere long
to be the result. Consequent on the divided state of the
troops in the division, a requisition I hear has been made to
Army Head Quarters for tho services of two or more native
regiments, one for Vizianagrum iu addition to that already
there, and a complete corps for Ruaselloondah instead of, as
at present, only a wing. It is also said that Government
have been solicited to allow two companies of Native Vete-
rans to be stationed at Vizagapatam, owing to the very
arduous duties the 41st regiment has to perform.—Circulator,
July 24.

PROVINCIAL.

HYMENEAL ADVERT:SEMEN/b.—The hfancheste► Guar-
dian has lately had a number of advertisements from parties
panting fir partners in the conjugal state—individuals evi-
dently who bad tried the usual modes of procuring wives
without success, and to whom advertising in the public prints
has become a dernier ressort. Some of these advertisements
have been remarkable fur their coolness, the penniless specu-
lator insisting that the honour of his hand was not to be put•
chased at less than a few hundreds a year; while others have
exhibited a great degree of modesty, gently intimating that he
was "rather prepossessing in his appearance." " If newspaper
proprietors (says the Liverpool Standard) could adopt the
rule of compelling each party who thus introduces himself to
the compassionate attention of the fair sex to permit *faith-
ful portrait of himself to accompany his advertisement, and
also to make a deposit of a sufficient sum of msncv, or a
sufficient number of title-deeds, to guarantee his ability to
keep a wife, the number of these advertising spouse-seekers
would be diminished."

CORN.

MARX-LANE.—Tteo o'clock. —The little English
Wheat at market this morning, was disposed of at Is. to 2s.
per qr. above the rates of Monday last. Free foreign Wheat
was generally held far a similar improvement, and where
sales were made, that advance was obtained; but there was
evidently less life in the trade than of late. American
Flour in bond is held at 275. to 28s. per barrel.
Malting Barley unaltered in value, but Grinding and Dis-
tilling sorts were in request, and maintain the improvement
of Is. to 2s. per qr. noted on Wednesday last.
The arrivals of Oats since Monday have been small ; the
high rates which factors generally demanded this morning
had the effect of checking business; the few retail sales
made, however, were at price about 6d. to Is. beyond those of
last Monday.
Beane and Peas fuPv support their value.

SCOTLAND.

REPRESENTATION OF STIRLING BUROIIB.—We (Seal-
wan) understand that Mr. J. B. Smith, of Manchester, has
resented himself as a caniidate for the representation of the
Stirling distract of Burghs in the ensuing parliament. He was
one of the most active founders of the Anti• Corn-law League,
and was chairman of that important combination during the
first three years of its existence, when his impaired health
compelled him to retire f; r a time from the arduous duties
devolving on him, and to go abroad. His acquirements in
the science of political economy, and his great knowledge of
commercial subjects, have been duly appreciated by the
leaders of the free-trade party ; and we believe that it is
upon their recommendation that the electors of Stirling have
now solicited him to come forward. The reception which
Mr. Smith has met with in these burghs has been of a very
favourable character.

THE EXPRESS, FRIDAY

SURD= DEATK Or MR. R. LA/OVCRl.—During the
reeirartkreCurragh for the Anglesey Stakes, an awful ca-
tastrophe took Idace. Mr. Robert Latouche, second son of
the late Robert- Latonette, of Harristown, county Kildare,
Req., who was standing upon the upper leaded roof of the
stand-house, suddenly dropped downbeside his friends, with
whom he was conversing in the full enjoyment of good
spirits a few moments before. From the instant he fell he
betrayed but little signs of life, and although medical aid was
instantly at hand, and every possible means resorted to for
his restoration, he expired with a slight motion of his eyes
and mouth. The immediate cause of his death was supposed
to be diNease of the heart. A sudden and solemn gloom per-
vaded all parties when the melancholy event became known,
and the majority crowded to the temporary station for
Dublin, impressed with the solemn and sudden visitation
which fell upon this highly estimable member of so practi-
cally benevolent, useful, and beloved a family. The lamented
gentleman was between 32 and 33 years of age, end was un-
married. 1-here were some matches to be run off, but they
were, with great propriety, postponed.

SCOTLA ND.

NARROW EscarE.JOnTiunday last, about nine o'clock
in the evening, an alarm of fire was sounded at l)unblaie.
The children of a sub-contractor on the Scottish Central
Railway had act tire to the bed-curtains with a candle. The
furniture of fly.' bed was instantly in a blaze, and the apart-
ment being a small attic, situated at the Cross. the It omes
spread with rapidity. As there is no fire-engine in Dun-
blear, the populace mustered and rendered every) assistance
in their power to extinguish the conflagration. The surprise,
indignation, and alarm that took possession of the minds ,4
the multitude may easily be conceived when it was ascertained
that in the house adjoining the dwelling where the lire was
ragiiqr, and which was occupied by another subcontractor
and his family, on the same floor with the blazing apartment,
and separated from it only by a seey thin partition, there
was stored nearly half a ton of gunpowder, similar to that
used in railway mining operations!! On the first alarm of
the tire being given, the proprietor of the gunpowder
hastened into the premises, and carried off his family, his
money, and the portable valuables which be could snatch up
at the moment. When the danger from the gunpowder
became known, John Nicholson, a mason, followed by a
number of people, rushed up to the apartment, and suc-
ceeded in extinguishing the flames. No person was injured
but the poor melte r of the children, whose hands and arms
were dreadfully burned in her attempts vainly to extinguish
the fire by pulling down the blazing furniture.—Sluing

RAILWAY NEWS.

The share and scrip market was heavy in the early
part of yesterday, but towards the close there was a manifest
appearance of improvement. Blackwalls advanced to 91
buyers. Brighton were also better. The Richmond share-
holders are taking their money, it appears, instead of the
South Western stock. The fact would seem to show an opi-
nion adverse to any immediate improvement of the South
Western. According to the terms of agreement, it will be
remembered that the South Western Company give the
Richmond proprietary a bonus of ten per cent., to be paid
either in money or in South Western stock, at option. A
fair business was done in Cornwall and Devon. Lciccsters
and Bedfords heavy, and sellers. Cambridge and Oxford
were firmer. Boston, Stamford, and Birmingham, steady.
Manchester and Southampton were flat. The Taw Vale

INSOLVENT DEBTORS COURT.

UNSATISFACTORY ACCOUNTS.—ThomasCTIAM hen, who
had been several times remanded for want of giving a satis-

factory account of his property, and who had been in custody
at the suit of Mr. Newton, fur a period of four years, was
brought up again to-day to explain the manner in which he
had disposed of a specific sum of 4001. On former occasions
he had described himself as a journeymen baker, but he
to-day admitted that he was a master cook and confectioner.
It appeared that the insolvent had been tenant of his
detaining creditor, from whom he had obtained a lease of
the premises. Ile afterwards sold this with the good-will
of his business for 4721., and then decamped. In the course
of his previous examinations he gave very contradict try
accounts of the way in which be got rid of the
money. But, his story to-day was different from
all the rest, and was designated by Mr. Cooke,
the oppo-ing counsel, "as the last resource of a dis-
honest debtor." His talc now was, that he went into the
country with a female, and that on one afternoon he walked
with her into the fields, when, being somewhat in liquor, he
laid himself on the grass, and fell asleep. On awaking, the
female had gone away, and he discovered that lie had been
robbed of 3001. in notes, which he had carried about with
him. Ile gave no information of his loss to any one, nor
had he adopted any means to recover the property.—Mr.
Cooke said the tale was too improbable for the court to enter-
tain. The notes had nev. r ixen presented to any bank for
payment, which made the case of robbery a mete fiction.
•—The Commissioner lamented, that, by the present state of
the law, the pow,.r of the court was rendered almost abor-
tive, by its sentence being required to refer back to the time
of the vesting order, instead of taking place from the day it
was pronounced He then dismissed the schedule and order
for hearing.

MONEY MARKET.

TVESDAT ETENI7O.
Money Stock was rather brought to market to-day,
and the result was a decline tifl on the quotations, those for
time remaining as before; Consols being last quoted 951 to
I for money, and 96 to 1 for account. Exchequer Bills
heavy at 84. to 12s. premium. The low rates of the latter
are attributed to the large payments making into the Exche-
quer, probably on Customs or Excise account, for a hich pur-
pose Exchequer Bills had to be disposed of. India Bonds
were 225. to 265. premium. India Stock, 259 to 261.
The settlement of the account engrossed the attention of
the dealers in the foreign house. The fluctuations have been
rather strong in the course of the account now concluded in
Mexican and Spanish bonds, and in Portuguese a serious fall
occurred. The settlement appears to have passed over, how-
ever, without any mischance. An improvement took place
in Spanish, supposed to be owing to the bears having over-
sold themselves, and being therefore obliged to make up or
buy stock for delivery at the higher rates imposed by the
holders or speculators for the rise. AA opinion, moreover,
seems to gam in some quarters that Spanish bonds are likely
to be better ; when and why is not said. The Fives left off
271 to 1 ; the Threes, 384104; Deferred, 174 to 4 ; Pr-
im, 6 to 4. Portuguese 43 to 4. Mexican, 25 to 4.

Newcastle—Lady Jane, three fish by report. Hull—Prince

Traveller, two ditto, spoken 15th of July; Abram„ three
fish, spoken 17th July. It appears from the report of
Captain Peterson, that the ships had madi several ineffectual
attempts, both north and south, to get to the west land, but
could not, as a barrier of ice interposed. Having given up
the trial to the northward, they were, on the 7th August,
when last seen, about to try still farther south. The few fish
were caught in the early part of the season.—Caledonian

It is generally admitted that the Hops this year
are lighter than last, but then the quantity is greater and
the quality good. The duty in this part is hacked from
210,000/. to 220,0001., though in some pars of West Kent an
opinion prevails that it will not exceed 200,0001. The last
accounts from Maidstone state that in many instances the
quality is inferior, and condition very deficient. Picking
having almost universally begun before the Hope and
arrived at maturity. We cannot help thinking that
for good Hops the price must very materially improve
—it the planters will only have the patience to wait.
MEREWORTIT, WATERINGEURT, AND TESTON.—
The quantity and quality have realised the expectations of
most of the growers, but the general opinion is against the
present supposed amount of duty.
SEAL AND IGHTDA5l.—'fhe general complaint is
that the hops have come considerably short of w 5 at was ex-
pected owing to their weighing so badly according to bushels,
and the duty is thought to be too high at the present esti-
mate. _ _

EAST MALLING.—The planters consider the hops
to weigh well to the number of bushels, and the quality
exceedingly good.
ROLVENDEN.—We have still the same complaint of
lightness as we had at the commencement. This is easily
i accounted for. The growth of the Hop was so extremely
rapid, that the time of gathering instead of being very late
was much sooner than last year. Hence there was a great
paucity of seed, and, as a natural consequence, a want of
pollen, which detracts much from their weight.
TICEIWRST.—The crop does not exceed expecta-
tion. There is a disposition on the pert of many growers to
hold their hops a time from market, in order that better
prices may be obtained; the present growth being good,
and but few good old ones being on band
WEYHILL FAlL.—Nearly 1,000 pockets of Hope
have already been brought from Farnham awaiting this
great annual sale or malt. Saturday neat will be the Nbeep
fair; Monday, the Horse and Beast ditto; Tuesday, Hops
and Cheese ditto ; and Wednesday, the Pleasure ditto.
