show consisting for the moat part of new samples, which
were taken off at rates according to quality ; old samples
maintained their value; grinding, 325. to 345. ; malting, 365.

the demand, although slow, was firm, and new sorts relined
recent currencies, :as. ; old moved off very heavily at 264.

being about the same as last quoted, namely, 4s'. to to.

KIIIKCALDT, Acute? 31.—Aithough we have bad some
severe gales with occasional heavy rains during the week,
still upon the whole a good deal of grain has been cut
down, and • prtion also secured in good order. Wheat
bulks leas than was expected barley fair, and oats good.
The quality of the grain, so Jar as we have yet seen, is nee.
At our country markets this week, we had less wheat
offering, and on the sales made • slight advance was ob..
tatued. We have seen • few 'ample* of new barley; prices
too irregular to be quoted. Oats rather cheaper. Here,
today, we had very small supplies of wheat end oats ; axles
slow, at barely but week's prices. No old barley, but we
had about 70 qr.. of new, in good condition, weights from
:Nib. to 5541 b. Wheat, old, 365. to 545. per qr. ;
barley. new, 275. 6d. to 345. lid. ; oata, old, 2lls. od. to
295. 6d.

WATERFORD, AUCUST 31.—We have had a very decided
improvement in the weather this week, of which forums
have not been slow to take advaintage. Considerable pro.
grass has been made in aecuridg our harvest; previous
reports of the wheat crop being short in yield and poor in
quality are fully confirmed, and we hear oats less favourably
spoken of. Barley, however, is expected to produce well.
With liberal arrivals of foreign grain, principally Indian
corn, our market has shown no symptom. of recovery from
the late dulnesa. All articles have been dealt in most
spariugly, at about previous rates for wheat and barley.
Oats have been offered at a trifle leas money, without find.
ing buyers. The sale of Indian corn has almost ceased for
the present, and until farmers have worked off their di..
ea -led potatoes, we can badly look for any demand worth
naming. Flour of the finest quality more readily sold.
Imports this week :—Wheat, 3,100 qro. ; Indian corn,
9,510 ; flour, 5() barrels 170 sacks. Export. thi. week
(Ist., 1,491 barrels ; flour, 937 sacks ; oatmeal, 16 backs.

The troops have disappeared from the streets and
public places of Warsaw, but they are building block-
houses at different points, and especially in Castle-
place. The Polish officers in the Russian service
are to be sent to the distant parts of the empire.
Twenty-two new prisoners have been sent off to the
fortress of Modliu. The arrest of four priests pro-
duced a conflict at Ostrolenka, in which several
persons were seriously wounded.
Fresh arrests have taken place at Warsaw and in
the provinces. The Committee of Inquiry has for
President Colonel Lek:lite, formerly head of the
secret police. Active search is made for the writers
and printers of the clandestine sheet the Vigie.
The last number announced a grand national fête

In answer to Mr. Lewis, the witness mid prisoner had
only been employed five weeks, and was paid his wages the
previous day, he being under warning to leave. The witness
also admitttid that he bad not been on good terms with the
prisoner, who had struck him. He had seen dOs. in gold in
the till, and missed it after the prisoner had been to it, but
a boy had also been there.
_ _

inspector Walker, C division, said be took prisoner in
charge, ►nd found three eove'eigna and 16 shillings on him.
He denied the charge, and said he should bring an action
against the proseeutor. The prisoner was drunk at
the time, and bad sent for a cab to Mr. Tunson's door
to leave in.

In answer to Mr. Lewis, the inspector said Mr. Timson
had paid the prisoner 2/. tls., and he found 31. lesi. on him.
Mr. Timson said, in answer to a question from Mr. Lewis,
that he had *good character with the prisoner, and that
the reason why he was discharging the prisoner was because
he got drunk.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said he had no doubt the witness thought
the prisoner took the sovereign, because he missed it from
the till dterwards, but there was not enough evidence. It
was a very odd thing that the prisoner, who had a good cha•
meter, should begin to steal when drunk. There was great
question whether the money was taken at the time, and he
should, therefore, discharge the prisoner.

The Chairman—Allow me to say I did not interfere at
the time, because I did not think it was seemly to inter-
rupt an important criminal investigation with such discus-
sions ; but I was aware at the time that Mr. Marshall was
very much annoyed and did take your remarks in the way
iu which Mr. Wyndham has put it. But Ido believe that
no insult was intended, sad that you only wished to stop
what you thought was an irregularity. However, I am
bound to say, that according to the constitution
of this court, lam not sitting here as a judge in sole and
separate dignity, but only as one of a bench of magistrates
elected by them to preside, and that the whole bench has
as much right to interfere and ask any question as I have.
Mr. Marshall came here sitting as a justice in the exercise
of his ordinary privilege, and doing as he sometimes does,
taking a little part in the case ; but I am sure lie did not
intend to act partially.
Mr. Sleigh-1 am sure of it ; and lam sorry it occurred
to any magistrate to make any observations to me. Mr.
Marshall is, I have no doubt, a man of integrity, and I shall
have his sanction for saying that it would be more seemly
if a man so connected did not communicate with the judge.
The Chairman -1 asaureyou there was nothing said to
me to Liss my mind.

LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

FRIGHTFUL MURDER IN ITALY BY

AUSTRIAN OFFICERS.

"The Austrians," says the Nationalit4s of Turin,
" have just committed a revolting act at Monteochio
Maggiore. A postmaster, named Finato, lately
received orders to take two officers to a neigh-
bouring village, and he sent his son, a lad of 19,
with a carriage to drive them. When the lad got
to the place where he was to take up he found five
officers who wanted to get into the carriage, and
as he had been hired but for two he refused to
carry them all. Thereupon one of the offioers,
named Count Buri, struck young Finato violently,
and the latter returned the blow. The officer then
attempted to draw his sword, but Finato, more
active than he, pushed the weapon back into the
scabbard. Upon this the other four rushed upon
the young man ; one of them wounded him mor-
tally in the neck, another cut off ono of his arms,
the third fractured a kneecap, and all four con-
tinued to cut and thrust at him till he fell lifeless.
As many as thirty officers, of all ranks, looked on
quietly while this horrible assassination was
going nu."

EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

(110/1 OUB 01n1 COBIZIIPONDMIT.)
PARK THUIL4DAY Emma.

There is little news to-day, but the newspapers
are very free in their censure of the two leading
domestic events of yesterday—namely, the Grand-
guillot attack upon Geneva, and the Moniteur's
threats against anonymous pamphlets.
On the first of the above subjects the Pr esee
says :
The

replies to-elay to the Geneva
Council of State. Letting alone the ridiculous solemnity
of this defence, we will confine ourselves to the remark
that the journal has failed to produce any serious answer
to the contradiction inflicted upon it.
The Tempo writes

The Conditattionmei would have done better to have kept
its defence to dealt We know not what effect it may pro-
duce in Geneva, but wo can hardly think it possible that it
will be accepted as serious. Under pretence of fortifying
its former assertions, or rather of substituting others for
those which the Genovese contradiction has destroyed, it
descends to the last degree of old woman's gossip. But
what is particularly odd I. that the letter which it cites in
support of Be allegation, and which, by the way, is in no
sort proved to be authentic, purports to come from an old
Frenchman of a quiet disposition named Dubois. How does
it happen that this respectable elderly gentleman, who lives
upon his property, and therefore is under no necessity to
reside in Switzerland, should choose to dwell in n spot
where there is no safety for his eettritrytnert,and where any
body may be killed for 5 francs ?

Even the legitimist journals,which have no great
leaning towards republican Switzerland, join in the
cry against the outrageous inventions of the Con-
stitutionnel. The Munde showed its feeling by pub-
lishing the letter of the Geneva Council of State
while the Cionatitutionnel was taking time to CAMIL•
eider what it should do.
The Union speaks as follows :

The Co•stitntio•nel ham • right to enter into discussion
with the Geneva Council of State, and we only hope that
truth and justice may prevail. But, in our humble opinion,
the Constitutionnet is bound. as • preliminary step in the
controvers3, to prove the falsity of the words put in the
mouth of M. Thouvenel. Bow can the Constittaionnel
take upon itself to affirm that it knows what the Minister
for Foreign Affairs declares he does not know? This
is surely very presumptuous, and the Constitution/se/ had
better mind what it is about ; its defence is almost an accu-
sation of M. Thouveners diplomatic and consular agents.
The Sielck, in remarking on the reply of the Con-
atitutionnel to the letter of the Council of State of
Geneva, observes that if a Swiss journal thought
fit to enumerate all the crimes and grave offences
committed in any large French town, such as

interesting and full of promise :for the future of
Italy, has not attracted so many visitors as the

HAMBURG, Ocr. 17.

The question of the formation of a German fleet
was discussed by the Burgerscbaft in its sitting of
yesterday evening.
It was resolved that the Senate should be again
earnestly requested to act iu conformity with the
views of Bremen in the negotiations now pending
for the protection of the Get man coasts, and to
bring forward a proposition to that effect for the
consideration of thu citizens as soon as possible.

BREMEN, Ocr. 17.

The Weser Zeitling publishes the plan submitted
by Bremen for the formation of a German fleet, ac-
cording to which Prussia would undertake to
construct a fleet sufficiently strong to guard the
coasts against any attack by Denmark, and to pro-
tect the German flag in Eastern Asia. This fleet
would also have to comply with the requisitions of
the consular agents of all the German States.
The amount to be contributed by the people of
the different German governments towards the cost
of constructing and maintaining the fleet would be
fixed according to the following scale :
In tho states in the interior of Germany the
people would pay 2 silbergroschen per head ;
In the states bordering on the sea, 3 saber-
groschen per head ;
In the Hansa Towns, 12 silbergroscheu per head.

SUSPECTED MURDER IN GLASGOW.

The North British Mail of yesterday says :
" Scarcely has the excitement caused by the ' Motherwell
Mystery ' had time to subside, when we are startled by
another case equally mysterious, and in some points dearly
resembling the ' Mysterious Occurrence at Motherwell.' A
man named James M'Caffery, a furnaceman in the employ-
ment of Masers. Merry sad Cunningham, at Cairnbroe,
disappeared on the morning of Sabbath last, and has not
since been beard of. The bob of the case, so far as we
have Loanable to gather them, are as follows :—On Saturday
night last M'Caffery was in Airdrie along with his brother,
John M'Caffery, and other two men, named respectively
John MulholLind and William M'Grorty. They had been
in one or two public-bomea, and at a late hour they left the
town to go home. The brother autos that, instead of going
direct home, they went round by Whiffiet, and went to a
public-house there, where they had ' half a mutchkin."
He and his (now missing) brother then left to go home
When they were near the bridge which crosses the
Caledonian Railway at Whifßet he heard two men
coming running after them (not those with whom they
hail been in company previously), and who, on coining up
to where they were, began to quarrel with his brother.
James M'Caffery then ran away, and the two men followed
him towards the village of Greenend and acmes the bridge
over the Calder branch of the lifooklaeda Canal. In a short
time one of the men returned, and, addressing John M'Caf-
fery, said with an oath, If you were not such an old man.
I would give you as much, or words to that effect, and
then passed on ; and John 111•Caffery, who seems to have
been pretty much under the influence of drink at the time,
also went on homewards. A woman, who lives at the Old
Store, Calder, just immediately beside the bridge which
crosses the meal before referred to, say. that about one or
two o'clock on Sabbath morning she bean! a noise as of
men quarrelling and fighting, and that she heard some
am say, e' I'll have your life before you go to Cairn.
broe ; and she also beard cries of 'Murder!' Since the
occurrence diligent inquiries have bees made by the
police at the missing man's relatives both here and in
Glasgow and elsewhere, but no tram of him has been
found. The canal has also been dragged by the police,
wader the superintendence of Captain ('lark and John
M•Donald, Esq., procurator-fiacal ; but although it is
stated that the misaiug msn's bonnet has been touod on the
canal bank, near to Suicide-bridge, nearly a mile distant
from the place where dm quarrel commenced, up to the
time we write the body has not been discovered. Those
who lived beside ki`Catfery state that he and his wife some-
Cows quarrelled, and that he was in the habit of leaving
her for a short time, but this statement is stoutly denied
by the woman herself. John M'C'affery states that the two
men who ran after his brother were not personally known
to him, and they are still at large. The whole affair is
shrouded in a mystery- which, judging from present appear.
awes, will not be easily solved."

THE SULTAN AND HIS HOUSEHOLD.

A correspondent of the Morning Poet, writing
from Constantinople, Oct. 7, says :—" I believe that I re-
ported at the time, in common with everybody, that the
Sultan had, on his accession, struck a heavy blow at poly-
gamy by declaring his intention to reform his harem bills
by keeping only one wife. If so, I regret to have to spoil
the excellent impression which so exemplary a piece of
news must have produced byf now apprising you that his
Majesty has already increased his conjugal stud to four
kadins, several ikpals, and a tolerably strong con-
tingent of guNlis, which, being interpreted, mean, 'the
lofty in rank; 'those who have found favour,' sod 'those
who please the eye.' The first of these categories may Le
increased to seven, and includes the fortunate ladies whose
rank is as nearly as possible equivalent to that of ' wives
for it is a western fallacy that the Sultan ever
marries.' The first scveu of his ladies have, in the
order of their accession, wifely rank; but mar-
riage ceremony, such as loosely binds other true
believers, there is in his august case none. Next
to these in the haremic hierarchy come the ikpals, for-
tunate fair mica, from whom the supreme seven are geite-
rally recruited in awe of death or penal bestowment on a
Yacht. Whilst each of the kadins has a suite of about 40
attendants, these secoad-cless heeds hove severally an at-
tendance of 'Si or 30. They are themselves either singled
out by the imperial taste front amongst the retinue
of the kadins, or are special purchases and presents to
his Majesty by one of these latter. The gozdis, like
the ikpals, are limited to no number, and differ
from the latter rather in the degree of their hold on the
imperial 'eye' than in original inferiority of rank in the
household. But when they have gratified the sublime
optic, be it only for once, they cease to belong to the rank
and file of the great female brigade, and attain a substan-
tive status and attendants of their own. With
all three of these categ ries of pro-conjugal stock,
then, I am assured by no meaner authority than
one of the palace physicians th►t his Majesty
■ already well provided, having, es I say, four of the first
sod a fair number of both the wood and the third.
So much for the highly respectable story of one
wife. And not only does what I now report dispose

PAR" Ocr. 1&
The Moniteur of to-day publishes • circular,
dated 16th instant, addressed by Count Persigny,
Minister of the Interior, to the prefects of the
departments, explaining the necessity of bringing
the charitable societies established without the
formal sanction of the government under the
operation of the law.
Count Persigny acknowledges the benefits diffused
by these associations, and then speaks of the free-
masons, who, he says, are animated by a patriotism
which has never failed them in great emergencies,
and have not for a long time given the public
authorities any serious cause of complaint, unless
in reference to their central organisation, whose
mode of election, tending to excite rivalry between
the different lodges, and to disturb their good
harmony, calls fur some modification. "But,"
Count Peraigny continues,!" it is advantageous to
authorise freemasonry, and to recognise its ex-
istence." He also acknowledges the good done
by the local societies of Saint Vincent de
Paul, but regrets that the provincial committees,
while pretending to afford encouragement to the
different charitable societies, deprive them of the
right of choosing their dignitaries, thus imposing
themselves upon all the societies of a province, as
if they wished to make them serve as the tool of
an idea foreign, to charity.

In reference to the Superior Council of the Society
of St. Vincent de Paul, now sitting in Paris,
Count Persigny says :—" The government cannot
approve of the ertistence of a kind of committee
not appointed by the local societies which fills up
its ranks by its own sole authority, assumes the
right of governing the local societies iu order to
form them into a secret association whose ramifica-
tions extend even beyond France, and collects from
the societies a budget respecting the employment of
which nothing is known. Such an organisation, in-
explicable on the sole ground of charity, is useless.

part of the oversold accounts for this ear bad
been settled by the large business t for the
period at that time. The opinion we then expressed ban
teen fully justified by the closing up of the remaining con.
tracts for October and December delivery. There was
very little to settle to-tley, and the " ca," even, were
supplied with tallow without any diMenlV. The market,
consequently, closes very4there etly. But littlespeculative

THE HUNGARIAN MOVEMENT AND THE

PRINCIPALITIES.

The Austrian journals have accused Prime Couza
and the government of the Danubian Provinces
of favouring the attempts recently made by some
Hungarians to introduce, by the Danube, arms and
ammunition into their country to aid in an insur-
rection. An inhabitant of Galati writes to the
Brussels ind;penciance to say that the Moldo-
Wallaohian government, far from being an accom-
plice in these manceuvres, has given its agents the
strictest orders to prevent any attempt against
Austria. Five vessels have been seized : the three
last were taken at Galata on account of their re-
fusal to allow of ► visit ; two others, which had
succeeded in escaping the vigilance of the Ottoman
government, were unable to disembark their cargo,
and were obliged to return to Galata. They had
on board 12 guns, with carriages and accessories,
15,000 muskets, a great quantity of bullets, car-
tridges, shot chests, cartouches, and many millions
of knapsacks and cartridge boxes. All this ma-
teriel, sufficient to arm 15,000 men, has been
seized as contraband and deposited in the barrack
ships of Galata.

FATAL RAILWAY ACCIDENT AT KIDDREMINSTER,
YESTERDAY'.—An accident of an appalling kind took place
near the Kidderminster Station of the West Midland Rail-
way, by which a platelayer immediately lost his life. A
fast train leaves Worcester at 10.25 a.m., only stopping at
Kidderminster for passengers hooked to the north. Yester-
day morning the weather was rather misty, and it wu per-
hap owing. to this cause that the accident occurred.
Thomas Smith, the platelayer in question, was on the Hoe
Brook viaduct, a mile south of Kidderminster, when this
train came up. He was evidently aware of its approach.
for he had signalled to another man on the line below him
to get from between the metals. He himself, however,
neglected to do so in time. The consequence was that the
front part of the engine caught him, and he wan hurled on
to the line. The train immediately passed over him,
cutting off his hoed and one of his arms, sad otherwise
mutilating his body in the most frightful manner. The
train was proceeding at the rate of about 35 miles an hour
at the time of the accident, sod was pulled up about a
quarter of a mile from the spot where it occurred. Death
wan, of course, instantenernia Au engine was sent from
the Kidderminster Station to pick up the poor fellow's
mnaiva and they have been removed to an inn, where the
inquest will be held.

AUSTRIA AND ENGLAND.

A communication from Vienna, in the German
Gam& of Berlin, says :—" A brochure which
has just appeared here, entitled, 'The Austrian
Navy by an Austrian Sailor,' with the signature
Aut-aut,' has caused much sensation here.
The Archduke Ferdinand Maximilian, brother of
the Emperor and superior commandant of the
Austrian navy, is the author. He proposes a vote
of 36,000,000 florins to create • navy equal to that
of Italy. In urging this proposition he says that
he regards the lose of Venetia as verypossible ; that
he recognises the great political talents of Cavour ;
that he has familiarised himself with the idea
of a united Italy ; and that Austria ought to seek
to form an alliance with England. " Austria," he
says, " ought so to reform her internal system that
England would not fear in the presence of public
opinion to take the hand which we stretch out to
her."

THE POLICE COURTS.

BOW-STREET.

Yesterday beings ppoi niedlortlelOrther bearing of the
case of M. tans Deader, who was summoned on the prose-
cution of the Treasury for keeping an illegal lottery, all
the parties were in attendance at the appointed hour—three
o'clock.

- Mr. Sleigh, the counsel for the defence, said, is award-
anee with the understanding arrived at at the last examina-
tion, M.Detbier had completely abandoned his undertaking.
Tho establishment had been closed, no further ticket. bad
been issued, and it had been announced that the den V
would not take place. Under these circumstencest he h
that the government would withdraw from the prosecution,
and that the matter would here end. He was sorry to say
that M. Dethier had been premed very much by some, be
would not say vindictive. creditors, and that proceedings in
bankruptcy had been commenced spinet him. He, how-
ever, would resist those proceetlings. It ought also to be
mentioned that M. Dethier, anxious to fulfil his engagement
with the public as far as he could do so without offending
against the law, had iuseited advertisements in the news-
papers, offering to deliver to every holder of a shilling
ticket a portion of the cake to the value of one shilling—
namely, a pound. That day (yesterday) had been appointed
for this purpose ; but he was sorry to say that the pro-
ceedings in bankraptcy alluded tolled so interfered with the
oontemplated arrangements, that M. Dethier bad not yet
been able to commence the delivery of the cake. This,
however, showed his disposition to keep faith.
Mr. Metcalfe, the counsel for the prosecution, said that
for the very reason that the defendant bad fixed that very
day for the distribution alluded to, although he bad not
carried out that announcement, it would certainly be desir-
able that the matter ebould dead over for the present. It
had been originally announced that the lottery would con-
tinue until the sth January.
Mr. Henry thought there could hardly be any objection to
adjourn the awe till after the sth Jan.
Mr. Sleigh would be happy to assent to the adjourn.
ment, which would only give another opportunity of show-
ing how completely M. Dethier was Acting in good faith.
The are was accordingly adjourned, and the pasties left
