THE PENINSULAR MAILS.

SOUTHAMPTON, Tuzanst MostNixo.
The Oriental Company's steam-packet Tagus,
Captain T. K. Joy, has arrived here, and landed her
mails, under the charge of Lieut. J. Stephens, R.N.
Her dates are : Gibraltar, Jan. 15; Cadiz, 16 ; Lis-
bon, 19; Oporto, 20; Vigo, 20.
The Tagus brings twenty-three passengers and six
packages of specie. On the 22nd Jan., at 7.45 p.m.,
she broke the main-shaft of her engine, whereby the
starboard engine was rendered entirely useless. At
11.30 she proceeded, working her port engine only.
She brings eight of the crew of the Sarah Parks, of
Newry, wrecked near Oporto.
The weather has been fair, considering the time of
year, with a heavy north-west swell.
H.M.S. Britannia (flag-ship), Trafalgar, Albion,
Bellerophon, Arethusa, Retribution, Sampson, Niger,
and Antelope were at Gibraltar. The Sans Pareil

FRANCE.

YAMS, MONDAY Sesame).
There was to-day a still fur.her decline in the
Rentes, beyond the depression noted on Saturday.
The attempt made by some agents to realise at Fri-
day's improvement proved quite unsuccessful, and an
additional fall of 40c. took place on the Three per
Omits., and of 20c. on the Four-and-a-Half per
Omits., the former closing at 79f. 80c., and the latter
at 104 f. 80c. for the account. Bank Stock, after
undergoing a trifling depression, closed at Saturday's
=on, but there was no improvement in railway
or any similar investment.
This morning's Motsitoor announces that the grand
ball to be given by the Minister for Foreign Affairs
b definitively fixed for the 4th of February.
On account of the storm in the Channel yesterday,
the steamboat was unable to cross from Dover to
Calais ; there was consequently no mail from England.
The Patric announces that the Archbishop of
Paris has been desired to celebrate the sacrament of
matrimony for the imperial couple at Notre Dame,
on Saturday next.
Notwithstanding the decided contradiction given
in some of the Paris papers, it is still confidently
believed in usually well informed quarters, that
Prince Napoleon Bonaparte will be married to the
Princess Wagram shortly after the marriage of the
Emperor. In fact, the rumour still prevails that
both marriages will take place on the same day.
Business affairs in France are generally reported
as dull, and little improvement is anticipated before
next month, when extensive orders are looked for
from America. The prevailing inactivity is attri-
buted chiefly to the extraordinary decline in the
public funds, which has sensibly affected every branch
of commerce. The grain market has been rather do-
pressed during the week, but to-day there is a shade
of improvement both here and at Bordeaux. In the
silk trade, however, an exception must be made as to
the general depression, a fair average business being
reported at the full rates which have latterly ruled
the market.

The almost absolute silence hitherto observed by
the press upon the only subject of present interest is
broken to-day by three journals. The Pays, Journal
de Climpire, in a laboured article of three columns,
undertakes to prove that from the time of Cloves
downwards it has never been the traditional policy
)f the sovereigns of Frans to strengthen their
foreign alliances by intermarriages with royal
limilics. With the exception of some marriages
contracted in time of war with the hope of striking off
certaiu powerful states from the list of the enemies
of France, or iu the expectation of acquiring useful

HAMMEI SMITII.

A stout, respectably-dressed young woman, who at first
gave the name of Mary Johnson, but afterwards said her
right name was Jones, both of which are believed to be as
suss brought up on remand before Mr. Hendon,
charged with stealing a purse, containing two sovere.gns
and some silver, from the dress of Mrs. Mary Harry, the
landlady of the Hind's Head, l'ark-lane, Kensington-gore.

last, between 1 and 2 o'clock, the presecutriz ertered ono
of the Kensington omnibuses near the White Horse Cellar,
in Piccadilly, fur the purpose of riding home, sad she eat
on the kit hand of the prisoner, who was then sinks in
the vehicle. Oa parsing Eden Lodge, in the Kensington-
road, the prosecutriz took out her purse, which at that
time contained two sovereigns and some silver—the exact
sum she could not tell—for the purpose of getting the
money ready to pay the conductor when she alighted.
She took sixpence from the purse, and then carefully
returned it to the pocket in the right side of her dress. The
omnibus stopped at the top of Park-lane, and the conductor
gave her twopence from the sixpence she handed him in
payment of the fere. When she alighted the omnibus
went on, and the prisoner remained inside. When the
i.rosecutrix reached the pavement she put the twopence
into her pocket, and immediately missed her purse and its
contents. She quickly sent a boy alter the omnibus, and ,
she followed on behind. When the omnibus reached Ken-
sington turnpike gate it stopped, and the prisoner got out,
apparently in great haste. The prisoner then went down
a turning leading from the road, to which there was no
thoroughfare, and while the prusecutrix, who had reached
the omnibus before it started, was mentioning her loss to
the conductor, the prisoner returned up the turning, and
then made off as fast as posssible towards Knightsbridge.
The conductor pointed to her, and several persons
went M pursuit of her. She turned down Park-
lane, and e.itered some mews. A brewer's servant,
named Lee, followed quickly behind, and saw the
prisoner in • stooping position, and as he went
into the place she met him, rubbing her hands, upon which
was some dirt. He stopped her end told her she was charged
with picking the pocket of a lady in an omnibus, and she
begged of him to let her go, and said she was the mother of
five children, sad had a baby suckling at her breast. A
constable seeing the mob, came up and took the prisoner,
who di dared that she was as innocent as the saints above,
into custody.
A monied woman, named Hallet, in Psrk•lane-mews,
nearly opposite to the place where the prisoner entered,
saw her from the window stoop down and cover the dirt
over something. She afterwards went to the spot, and
found two sovereigns slightly covered over, and upon pick-
ing them up she felt them to be quite warm, as it they had
been held in the hand for some time.

The officer had searched about for the purse, but had
been unable to find it. Several of the detectives identified
the prisoner as having been in custody before fur pi•king
pockets, and stated that she was the wife of a well-known
Irish prizefighter.
The prisoner reserved her defence, and Mr. Beadon fully
committed her far trial.

THE PUNJAUB.

That "Arch-fiend," Saadut Khsn, the Momund
chief, seems destined to remain a thorn in our side so
long as he remains at large, so the sooner he is
caught and caged the better. The Lak9re Chronicle,
of the 13th instant, says of him and his doings :
Saadut Khan, The blomund thorn in the sloe of the
British Administration of the Province of I'eshawur, is
again astir. Ile was at the commencement of this entiath,
at Peendeealee, and had been amusing himself with carry-
ing off a kaffia bound to Bajaor. It was believed, in some
quarters, that on the conclusion of the Hamm, he would
prepare for an attack on some of the frontier villages.
Should ho tarry out the intentions he is supposed to enter-
tain, lie may be mere successful than has hitherto been the
case, as the rivers, and even the smaller ludas, are reported
unpiussable ; the bridge of boats connecting Peshawar with
the Doaba and Ilushtnugur, has been destroyed by logs of
wood floated down the river, so that reinforcements cannot
well be sent to the outposts, in case of necessity.
The posts are, of course, safe against any numbers
that the Momund Chief can bring against them,
but they cannot afford any aid to the surrounding
villages, in case of an inroad, and these may be plundered
and burnt before an efficient force could reach the exposed
districts from Peshawur. " Government should," says a
correspondent, in more energetic language than it is per-
haps necessary to quote, be prepared to protect their
ryots at all seasons." But, worse than this, " the Kobac
pus is closed, and has been so for some days. This is
another very derogatory affair; a handful of scoundrels
take up a position on our tide of the defile, and allow no
one to pass, and yet we do not, will not, or cannot drive
them off! How can we call ourselves masters of this
soil? Who ever heard of a British force in the field acting
so entirely on the defensive, as we are doing, to the great
disgust of those who, like himself, think we can only be
masters or servants, and that we look much more like the
latter than the former, under present circumstances." A
report was abroad in Lahore yesterday, that Shubkudr had
been attacked by Saadut Khan, that he had succeeded in
taking the place, and that Captain Fisher, the commandant
of the post, had been killed. We can only say that letters
were received by yesterday's dsk, which say not a word on
the subject, and that we have also communications this
morning (dated 13th July) which are equally silent.

CARMARTIIE.VSUIRE AGRICULTURAL
SOCIETY.

The annual gathering of the agriculturists of Car-
marthenshirs took place on Wedue-day last, when the show
of stock was lather superior to that exhibited last year, but
in no respect such as so large a tract of country ought to
produce. The bulls and sheep were pre-eminently excel-
lent, but horses were by no means of a superior character.
The sheep and pigs, however, were such as would not hare
disgraced the recent Royal Agricultural Society's show at
Gloucester.

The customary dinner took place at the Boss's Head
Hotel, the chair being occupied by D. JONES, Esq., M.P.,
the post of vice-president being filled by Viscount Einvis,
M.P. Amongst the company were D. Monis, E.g., M.P.;
the Hon. W. 11. Yelvertem ; Sir John !Hansel, Bart.; W.
Chambers, jun., Esq.; W. G. Hughes, Esq.; Rev. G. W.
Green ; W. Du Buisson, Esq. ; T. C. Morrie, Esq.; W.
Morris, Esq. ; A. Stonehouse Vigor, Esq.; C. Bishop, Esq.,
&c.
After the accustomed loyal and local toasts had been duly
honoured, and the list of premiums read,
The CHAIRMAN proposed t. Success .to the Society of
which they were all members." He need hardly impress
the importance of that society upon them, as the numerous
attendance that day sufficiently showed their appreciation
of its power end influence, and that was only by uniting
their energies that they could hope to improve agriculture
in the way that it ought to ho improved in such a besutiful
county as this. They had hitherto been more backward
than the counties which surrounded them, but a happier
era was now dawning, and he hoped they would ahortly be
enabled to compete, not only with Breconshire, which was
acknowledged to be the best county in South Wales, and
the farmers of which county had carried off prizes at the
Royal Agricultural Society's shows, but could also compete
and defeat some of the Euglish counties.
Several toasts followed, and after the chairman had
vacated Lis position an agricultural discussion upon practi-
cal subjectkfullowed for some hours.

MAIMING FM IN MAIM-LANE, ClTY.—Yentei-

ma to be attended with the most disastrons results, broke
C.V.:4%4)mi me range of premises, numbered 12 in Mark•

'meth perceived seneke issuing from the first floor, aces-
p.ed by Mr. Brod. ek. At that time there were nearly a

pltntiful supply of water having been obtained, the engines
'one, under the direction of Mr. Superintendent Braid-
1100d, Mr. Fogo, and Mr. conuorton, worked with full
• glur, but owing to the many vacant spaces between the
laliZlO of the wall, the firs took pcuession of the same,
sad travelled along into other parts of the building, thereby
Ix a cosnidervblc period defying the exertions of the bri-
lade. The men, by ripping up the' wainscate, succeeded I
at last in dis.rihnting the water in the right quarters, and
they ItaPP4 nviusited, by great exertion, to get the flames
titdned, but not until Mr. Brodock's premises were, toge-
ther with thou of Meters. Crawley and Masten, greatly
dtstliged by fire and water. The wonting-house of Mr.
lane, another @urchin , was also severely injured by fire
arid water. It was impoeeible to learn whether the property
itstrcred was inured, as no one slept on the premise".

MANCHESTER.

The first case of Asiatic cholera in Manchester was
reported to the board of guardians on Friday night, by
Mr. Walker Holland, medical officer to the market-street
district. Happily it was not a fatal cue. Mr. Holland says
he was called in so early as Tuesday last to a cuo in a con-
fined alley leading out of Back Thomas-street, of a woman
named Mary Heald, who is an out-door pauper (having a
husband who is a cripple), suffering from cholera. She was
in the told stage of the disease, quite pulseless, and in a
state of collapse, but he succeeded in giving relief in four
hours, though 24 hours elapsed before she rallied suf
&justly for the symptoms to be coaaidersd decidedly favour..
able. She is now quite recovered. There had been several
bad cases of diarrbcca among the families living in the same
entry. It is to be regretted that the authorities of Man-
chester have not, on this as on former occasions, published
and distributed directions, to show how the disease may be
detected by its premonitary symptoms and warded off by
timely resort to medical advice.

fled form. They even offer their support to the Sultan,
in case of need, not against the Russians, it is true,
but spinet his own subjects, should his adhesion to
the s ienna note provoke troubles in the Ottoman
empire." The Oest. Deutsche Post remarks that an
untavourable reply from Russia would not for the
moment be attended with such danger as would have
been the case some few mouths since. The menacing
straw fire which burned on the banks of the Thames
and the Seine is extinguished, and the Turkish cause
is abandoned. Should Turkey remain obstinate, a
war must inevitably ensue, and should the Russian
arms triumph, as the probability is they would, the
Oriental question would be more complicated than
ever. The cabinet' certainly have not lost sight of
this fact, and therefore the negotiations will not be
broken off even if Russia should reject the Turkish
negotiations.

BELGIUM.

The law on lei decrees altmentaires was voted on
the 28th by the Senate. M. Cassiers declared his
adhesion to the absolute freedom of commerce in
corn, and observed that all the measures which have
hitherto been taken to restrain it have terminated
in results diametrically opposite to those intended.
M. Anethan, who spoke on the other side, endeavoured
to demonstrate that the prohibition of free exporta-
tion did not necessarily diminish importation. The
Senate and Chamber have a decided baia towards
free trade. The law was finally voted without
amendment.

TILE WEATHER AND THE PARKS.

Yesterday morning the Parks presented a very
melancholy aspect u compared with the previous day. On
the frosen waters of St. James's, llyde, and Regent's-
lurks, as also Kensington-gai dens, but a few solitary indi-
viduals were to be found. At 7 o'clock on Thursday night
the thermometer stood at 24 degrees, having previously been
at 161. From that h ear the mercury rose rapidly, the wind
changing from N.N.W. to W.S.W. during the night; and
early M the morning a fall of rain took place, with the
moon's change at 6h. dm. A rapid thaw then commented,
the wind bearing during the entire morning S. by S.W.
The ire in the Parks was soon covered with water. The
snow, from the WI of the previous day, melting, adding to
the rotten state of many portions, rendered it unsafe ; and
the icemen, acting under the directions of Mr. Williams,
the superintendent of the Royal Humane Society, took
every precaution in their power to keep persons from ven-
turing then on. Their exertions were, however, better
*exuded by the weather. as the miserable appearance of
the morning kept away all except the most devoted skaters,
who, notwithstanding the caution, ploughed the ice in a sea
of water. No accident occurred. The frost again set in
with great severity tower,' the close of the day, and there
every prospect of more skating.
1 be official return of the number of skaters and sliders
in the Parks, made to Mr. Charlie,. the secretary of the
Royal Humans Society,amounted to 66,770,0ut of which large
num'ier only 45 suffered immersion. All these were saved
by the precautions employed by the Humane Society, and
by the activity of its icemen ; but it is remarkable that
although the institution's expenditure exceeds its income,
not a penny has yet been received in the way of subacrip-
tints from any of the individuals whom its agents herein all
ptubability saved from death.

prince confirmed the sentence, and read it himself to the
people. The out'aws are at Critmen, rata give out that the
prince is the victim of his own m suspicion, and that
the whole still of the conspiracy has been invented by one
of his servants, a worthless fellow.

SPAIN.

The HeraWo of Madrid of the 22nd states that a
deputation of senators and deputies of the liberal
party had waited on the Minister of Justice, to re-
quest that a certain degree of liberty should be al-
lowed to the periodical press. and that the newspapers
should be protected from sudden seizures and editors
from arrest by the local authorities. The minister
said that it was impossible for the cabinet to take
the matter into consideration, until the President of
the Council should be better. A letter says that the
President was getting better, and that he had been
able to transact business.

PERSIA AND AFFGHANISTAN.

Dolt Mahomed, who is well known to be no friend
to Russia, has sent two ambassadors to the Shah of
Persia, in the persons of Mirdat Khan and Cohen-
debit Khan, to demand that the 16,000 men, the
Persian garrison at Herat, be withdrawn; and that
the Sheik Heidar, governor of Herat, and son of the
Persian Sheik of Jitsehet, be dismissed, and the
government given back to Hussein, son of the late
Viceroy of Herat, Ytu. Mahomed, who died poisoned
two years ago. The ambassadors from Affghanistan
further stated, on making these demands, that their
powerful sovereign had the intention of firmly
supporting tee ill-acknowledged rights of Prince
Yar Hussein.
The Imaum of Muscat has refused to pay tribute
to Persia for the salt mines of Senderabasaiz.
The following appeared in the Official Journal of
Persia, No. 134 :—" His Majesty the Shah of Persia
has intimated the order to the chary; d'affaires and
personnel of the British legation at Teheran to pro-
ceed with him to Solkan, Kertch, and to Talkan,
and from thence to the military camp at Soultanie."
This is assigned as the cau-c of difference between
the British representative and the Shalt.

THE LAST DAY OF THE YEAR.

THE TRADE OF 1853.
The year now closing has been eventful for trade.
The changes have been great, but not unfortunate.
Let us be understood as using the word Trade in its
most general sense, not confining it to the exchanges
made between England and other states recorded in
the Board of Trade Tables. It has now become ob-
vious to every one that this branch of the business
of society depends to some degree on the state of the
Money Market; and it is not less plain and certain
th►t it depends in a still greater degree on the sea-
sons, and on the quantities of commodities—such as
corn, and cotton, and hemp, and silk, and tea—pro-
duced both abroad and at home. To speak only of
imports and exports would be therefore to take a
narrow view of trade. On another account it is very
desirable to use the word in its most general sense.
Certain persons continually speak disparagingly of
some branches of industry, while each and all of
them are essential to one another, forming an homo-
geneous whole. The merchant and the manufacturer
cannot succeed without the banker and the agricul-
turist, and both these would want a money-making
occupation were the others not in existence. The
separate businesses of society are like our legs and our
arms—we can live deprived of one of either or both, or
yen of all ; but we are indescribably better if we
have them all perfect. Society might exist deprived
of any one branch of business, but it is perfect when
it possesses them all. We aim, therefore, at lessen-
ing a prejudice when we proceed to speak of the
trade of 1853 under this enlarged aspect.
The year began under the most favourable auspices.
In consequence mainly of the then recent large im-
portations of gold from Australia, a great impulse
was given to our exports. The demand for our
manufactures increased, there was great activity
throughout the busy hives of the north ; "new mills
were built everywhere;" according to the Factory
Inspector's report, "hands were scarce, machinery
was standing idle for want of workpeople, and
wages rose." Consumption was great and rapidly
increasing. Market. which had been heavy became
buoyant, and supplies were barely adequate to the
increased demand. Though the quality of the har-
vest of 1852 was bad, the quantity was large, and
though importation had also been large, the price of
wheat at the beginning of the year was 48s. per
quarter in the London markets—a considerable rise
on the price of the year 1852. At the same time all
kinds of meat were much in demand, prices were
rising, and the agricultural interest, in common with
the mercantile, the manufacturing, the carrying, the
colonial and banking interests, were all full of hope
and exertion. Money was rising in value, as busi-
ness extended and profit increased. The close of
1852 was very prosperous, and 1853 began so well
that it was confidently predicted the national pro-
gress in it would be greater even than the progress
n 1852.

HOLYIIEAD BREAKWATER. -- The storm, which
was severely felt in many parts of North Wales, has caused
serious damage to the works at the new harbour at Holy-
head, particularly to the pilings. It is calculated that up-
wards of 500 loge have been driven by the gale to leeward,
oa the opposite side of the bay. At Bangor the greater por•
tiun of a new chapel now in course of erection fur the min-
nistic methodists has been blown doge, the damage being
estimated at 1001. The gardens and plantations at Bulywell,
Ruthin, and other places, have suffered severely, the trees
being completely stript. At Carnarven the fee washed
completely over the quay walls, but fortunately no damage
was done. The disasters to the shipping have nut been

SPAIN.

The Madrid Gazette of the 25th contains a royal
decree, enacting that, in addition to the articles
already exempted, tools, machines, carriages, and
matertal of all kinds, which may be destined exclu-
sively to the making and working of railways, shall
be imported free of duty. Some of the journals say
that some of the generals nominated to different
posts by the new ministry will not accept them.
I The Espana mentions General Lersundi as one of
these, and the Clamor Puldico says that General
Jost de la Concha has already resigned the post of
director of cavalry, hut the resignation is not yet
official. The Herohlo states that Queen Christina
and her family are to return to Madrid at the begin-'
wing of October. Several arrests had been made in '
connexion with the recent clandestine publication of,
seditious pamphlets. The Minister of the Interior
had stopped a prosecution against the Diario
pond, for publications connected with the coal affair'
of the ex-Minister of Marine. The works of the
different railways are being pushed on vigorously.
Those of the Northern line, in the province of Bar-
celona, are far advanced, and the section to Moncuda
will, it is said, he soon opened for traffic.
A Madrid letter of the 26th ult. says: "The
Cortes will very probably be convoked for the 15th
November. There is nothing positive with respect
to the alleged resignation by certain generals of the
posts conferred on them by the new cabinet ; and it
is said that the cabinet will not accept the resigna-
tions if offered. The provinces generally have re-
ceived with satisfaction the nomination of the new
Gener..l Narvaez is expected here at the
beginning of October. After a short stay he will
go to Arunjuez to await the opening of the Cortes.
The Marquis de Moline, the new Minister of Marine,
intends to visit the dockyard of Ferrol before coming
to Madrid."

A letter from Ferrol (Galicia), of Sept. 28th, says :
—" The day before yesterday the 78 gun ship, Rey
Don Francisco de Assis, was launched from the stocks
of the royal arsenaL This is the first vessel of war
since 1798 that has been launched frum the royal
arsenal."

ROUEN TO HAYRE RAILWAY.

The half-yearly general meeting of the share-
holders of this company war held on Friday, in one of the
large rooms connected with the Paris terminus in the Rue
d'Arnsterdam, M. C. Lerrirra, the president, in the chair.
The report showed that the total amount of the establish-
ment account up to the 28th of February last, was
68,298,2361, which sum had since been increue& by 21,9621.

the day just mentioned' had been 2,490,4491.; and the
charges and expenses. 1,736.3301. 9k., leaving a clear profit
of 764,1081. 9c. ; to which must be added the balance re-
maining over from the last half-year, 3,604 f. 91c.—
making an available total of 757,613 E, or a divi-
dend of 18f. per share, with • balance of 37,6181.

traffic of the line during the past half-year was to be con-
sidered most satisfactory. The report then referred to the

A Bit alitoLDia expressed a wish to learn something of
the state of the suit pending with the municipal council of
Havre, relative to the guarantee of 4 per cent. on 10,0001
shares.
The Ctiatanettr was happy to state that there was
at present every proepect of the matter being ar-
ranged amicably. The snit had come on In Pre-
miere Instanze, and • verdict had been given
in favour of the shareholders. The Municipal Conseil
then proposed the following arrangement:—The Sum at
present due on each guaranteed share being 36fr. 60c., the
council proposed to reimburse the whole amount due by
means of bonds at 4 per cent., to be paid off in four yearly
payments, commencing in that; the payment of each of
the first three years being lOfr. per share, and that for the
fourth year 6fr. 60c., plus the interest due on the whole
sum up to that time. This arrangement had not Jut been
signed, in consequence of some late changes in the Muni-
cipal Conseil, but there was.° doubt that the matter would
be terminated without delay.
The sateen's were then approved of, the dividend voted,
sad the retiring directors re-elected. The proceedings

inferior remain unsold. The number of *limp is about
the same u of late ; trade is heavy, and last Monday's quo-
tations cannot be supported, neither can a clearance be
effected. Good calves maintain Friday's prices, but mid-
dling ones are lower. The season for lamb is now at an
end. From Germany and Holland there are 1,923 beasts,
