at such prices and of such superior quality as prove the most abso-
lute benefit to imilvidnals and families.
E. Moses and Son have gnat pleasure in acquainting their friends,
patrons, and the public with the msgnificent arrangements they have
completed for furnishing the most fashionable and useful Dress, com-
prising new materials of the highest class, devised with incomparable
skill into the most superior attire, accrmpanied with Hats, Caps,

GUILD HALL.

VIOLENT ASSAULT. —J ohn Wrench, and William
Stanner were charged before Alderman Farncombe
with a violent assault upon John Clambert, Poppin's
court, Fleet-street.

The complainant stated he was at Blackfriars'-bridge
yesterday afternoon, when the prisoners came np to
him, and, without saying a word, commenced " bon-
neting." He remonstrated with them, when Stanner
struck him a violent blow, which blackened his eye.
He ran across the bridge, both the prisoners following
and beating him.

The two policemen who took the prisoners into cus-
tody, spoke of their violent conduct, and that they both
struck and kicked the policemen, on their interfering to
protect the complainant. They were both drunk.
Wrench was committed for 14 days, and Stanner
7 days.

ROBBERY OF 1001.—This morning Frederick Ra
Barrell, formerly clerk in the employ of Messrs. Wood-
head, of James-street, Adelphi, was placed at the bar
in accordance with remand, charged with stealing one
hundred pounds.
It will be recollected that the prisoner was a few
days ago brought up at this court charged with stealing
the sum of one hundred pounds, the property of Messrs.
Woodhead, navy agents, of James-street, Adelphi, and
that he was a confidential clerk in their employ, and
received a salr.ry to the amount of 1501. per annum. A
few weeks ago, under the plea of illness, he absented
himself from his employment, and during that absence,
as it continued for a considerable time, the books kept
by him were examined, when it was discovered that a
cheque for 197/., the amount of which had been received
by him, was entered as one of only 97/.
Mr. E. W. Stanley, cashier to Messrs. Coutts,
bankers in the Strand, stated that Messrs. Woodhead
kept an account at their house. On the 27th of July a
cheque for 1971. drawn by the firm was presented by
the prisoner and paid to him. He received thirty Si.
notes and the rest in cash fur the cheque.
Henry Smith, a detective policeman, stated that he
had traced the two notes produced to have been paid
away by the prisoner. The notes in question formed a
portion of those received by the prisoner at Coutts'
bank in payment for the cheque. He believed on a
future occasion he should be able to produoe further
evidence if time wore allowed him.
Mr. Mullins, who appeared for the prosecution, said
that, owing to the absence of Mr. Young, one of the
firm, he must ask for a remand till a future day.
Mr. Lewis, on the part of the prisoner, bad no objec-
tion to the remand, but he did hope that his worship
would indulge the prisoner by accepting bail, namely,
two sureties of 1501. each for his future appearance.
Mr. Henry stated that that was the first time he had
ever heard the amount of bail to be accepted for a pri-
soner suggested by a solicitor.
Mr. Lewis apologised for doing anything out of the usual
course. His only object in mentioning the sum be bad
done was to induce his worship to name a small amount.
At the same time, if the bail he bad mentioned was ac-
t ceptiri he was prepared with it, and he proposed giving

,THE DANUBE.

A private letter from Silistria, in the Prussian
Correspondence, states that the Turks are actively
employed in repairing the fortifications of that
place and those of Rustchuk, expecting 4, as they
do, an offensive movement on the part of Russia.
The streets and squares of the fortress and the
banks of the Danube
,are still covered with balls
and shells of last year's siege. There are about
40,000 Turkish troops at Silistria and 10,000 at
Rustchuk.

SPAIN.

The Madrid journals of the 10th have arrived,
but all their contents of any interest were men-
tioned in the letter of that date received yesterday .
A letter of the 11th, says :
"Out of the papers announces that the Queen is in an
' interesting situation,' but the government has received
no official notification of the fact. The laying of the first
stone of the buildings connected with the agricultural
school, the establishment of which was recently decreed,
is to take place on the 19th November, the anniversary
of the Queen's birthday, and it is to be built on land be-
longing to her Majesty at Aranjuez. The united bands
of Tristany, Casa Serra, and Altimeran, 152 strong,
were attacked a few days ago by the Queen's troops at
San Felice de la Sierra, and were dispersed with a loss
of seven killed and one prisoner. On the other hand the
Carlist chief Borges entered, four days back, the town of
Sonahaja, carried off the arms of the national guard, and
killed its commander. There is reason to believe that in
one of the first sittings of the Cortes, the Ministry will
propose an alliance with France and England, and will
make the adoption of the proposition a Cabinet question."

The Prvssian Correspondence contains a letter
from Galatz of the 29th ult., which states that the
new French consul at that place, Count de Bros-
sard, has entered on his duties. During the Rus-
sian occupation French interests were not repre-
sented in the principalities. At Galatz, where
there are but few French subjects, Viscount de
Lemant has been provisionally acting as represen-
tative of France during the last few months.

A letter from Vienna, of the 11th, in Voss's
Gazette, of Berlin, says :—" We are assured that
France and England are disposed to accept the
propositions made by Austria and Bavaria as re-
gards the affairs of Greece. These propositions
are to the effect that the troops of occupation
shall be diminished one-half, the remainder being
sufficient to maintain tranquillity, and that all
measures calculated to prejudice the King's sove-
reignty shall be avoided."

/MALT'? OF LONDON DURING THE WEEK.

( Front the Report of the Registrar-General.)
The mortality of London is still high ; the deaths,
which Lad fallen from 1,560 to 1,377 in the previous
week, again rose last week to 1,425. The mean wv:•ekly
temperature was 40.8 dog. in the beginning of M arch,
higher by 14 deg. than it had been in the latter h alf of
February. It fell to 36 deg., and in the week that has
now passed it was 38.5 deg. nom natural causes, as
wAI as from the circumstance that deaths are not, always
registered as soon as they occur, the consequences of a
change of temperature in one week are only dervoloped
in the returns of the week following, or at a later- period.
Tlw return shows that 169 persons died above the esti.
mated number.

Diseases of the respiratory organs were fatal in 339
cases, whilst the average is 260 ; besides these, phthisis
numbers 160, hooping-cough 78, and. influenza 9.
Last week the births of 906 boys and 873 in all
1,779 children, were registered in London. In the ten
corresponding weeks of the years 1845-54, the average
number was 1,537.

At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean
reading of the barometer in the week was 29.339 in. ;
the highest was 29.70 in. The mean temperature of the
week was 38.5. deg., which is lower than the average
by 2.8 degs. Sunday (the 11th) was cold ; the highest
temperature was 36.3 deg. ; and the mean 31.2 degs.,
or 9.5 degs. below the average. Snow and sleet fell on
that day. The following days were warmer, and to-
wards the end of the week the mean temperature rose
above the average. The wind blew chiefly from flea
south•east and south. The highest temperature of tiie
week was 53.3 degs. on Friday ; the lowest 24.5 degs.
on Sunday. The mean dew point temperature was
33.7 degs., and the difference between this and the mean
air temperature was 4.8 degs. Rain fell to the amount
of 0,70 in., about half of which fell on Monday.

STATE OF TRADE.

MANCHESTER, March 20.—There was a rather better
feeling in the yarn-market yesterday, and the improve-
ment, though not general, has been still more apparent
this morning. To this the advices from London and
Liverpool, as well as the tendency of business in Man-
chester itself, has contributed. The business done has
been of a more general character than of late, and
buyers have operated for India, Germany, and the Medi-
terranean, as well as for the hOrne trade. Water twist,
which was the most depressed last week, is to-day in a
rather better position than mule yarn, and may be quoted
fully Id. per lb. above the low rates prevailing at the
commencement of the month. Mule-yarn shares the
improved demand, and in some cases prices are a shade
higher, but not generally. Manufacturers are still com-
plaining much of the unremunerative position of the
cloth-market, and give the advance demanded in cops
very reluctantly. The improved rates f.,r yarn have it:-
dueed manufacturers to advance their quotations also for
cloth; but not very generally with success. In some
cases sellers have done rather better than last week, and
a somewhat improved tone is reported in several quar-
ters. The better class of shirtings for China are reported
rather firmer, hut, generally speaking, the houses in the
India and China trade are waiting for their lettere,
which are due this evening, before entering upon any
new badness. For the same reason the Greeks are to
some extent inoperative. Messrs. John Slagg and Co.
say of the cloth-market :—"The market has been very
flat throughout the week, and the general tendency of
prices has been in favour of buyers. To-day, although
there is no improvement in the demand for goods, manu-
facturers, influenced by the state of the cotton-market,
are generally asking higher rates, but without success,
and there is consequently very little business done. The
Indian letters will be in to-night, but, if we may judge
by the telegraphic report, they are not likely to do us
much good." Messrs. George Fraser, Son, and Co. re-
port :—" There is no material alteration in our market
to-day, beyond the firmness usually arising from an ac-
tive and hardening cotton•market. Somewhat higher
prices are thus in many cases demanded, but buyers, as
a body, show little inclination to follow them."
LEEDS, March 20.—The tone of the cloth-markets to-
day has been moderately cheerful and prices firm, but
less business has been done than on Saturday last.

FANDANGO OR REDLANDS.

Matilda I shall reserve as a " cock-boat."
The betting on the City and Suburban Handicap has
within the last day or two been somewhat brisk. Its
principal incident was the sudden advance of Noisy and
Quince. The former belongs to Pharsalus's stable. To
extend my remarks to an examination of the comparative
chances of every animal likely to put in an appearance
would be to trespass too much on the crowded columns of
The Sun. Theliit of starters will perhaps comprise Scherz,
Vindex, Frantic, Epaminondas, Eulogist, Quince, Mr.
Sykes, Testy, Remus, Seducer, Robin Rood, Billing-
ham, Topsy, Pollard, Duke of Lancaster, General
Picton, Noisy, Rajah, Plausible, Hodda,m, and
two or three others. ' The following lot, in
my opinion, comprises the winner, Scherz, Frantic,
Quince, Remus, Seducer, Duke of Lancaster, and Hod-
ham. Notwithstanding Scherz's steadying weight I
have been induced to place him among my "select few,"
because he is a horse of sound racing ability. He has,
however, other engagements, for which he may be in-
tended. The animals which I may be inclined to "stand
on " at the post will be
REMUS AND QUINCE.
Should an " outsider " be destined to pull through, I
shall not be surprised to see the Duke of Lancaster the
winner !

The minor items may be thus briefly dismissed. The
starting of Hospodar and Scherz for the Trial Stakes
would excite much interest,: Both, however, have also
engagements in the Inkerman Plate, for which they
may be reserved. Should Scherz not 'do battle for the
City and Suburban, I shall expect him to be the
successful competitor for this plate. In his default,
Hospodar will, doubtless, be first past the post.
For the Railway Plate I shall select Noisette, William
the Third, and Flageolet. On the Two•yrs-Old Race
and the Selling Stakes I shall not venture an opinion.

PRUSSIA.

---
The Berlin papers publish a summary of the dis-
cussions which took place in the Committee of the
Second Prussian Chamber on the War Estimates.
The discussions lasted 4 days, and terminated with
the proposed address to the King already published.
The following is from the National Zeitung
" The committee named by the Second Chamber to ex-
amine the question of extraordinary funds applied for by
the Government has submitted to the Chamber a sum-
mary of the discussions which took place in its interior
on the subject, and which lasted four days. The most
important part is that which refers to the declarations of
M. de Manteuffei. That statesman refused to give the
committee any explanations relative to the foreign policy
of the Government. The application for funds was, in
his opinion, sufficiently accounted for by the necessity
which exists for Prussia to arm in presence of the war-
like preparations of all the States around her. , To enter
into particulars, even on points which relate to the
past, would be to necessitate communications from
which conclusions might be drawn as to the future
attitude of the Prussian Government. Put that
course would not be prudent, not with respect to the
Prussian Chamber, but with respect to foreign Powers.
As to the past conduct of Prussia, he felt a firm convic-
tion that she had acted mast consistently throughout.
At present she was anxious for a union with Austria, an
understanding with the Western Powers, and the re-
establishment of peace by means of equitable concessions
on the part of Russia, and he did not despair of seeing
that object attained. In the course of the discussion the
hon. Minister observed that Prussia had carefully
avoided entering into any engagement with Russia, and,
referring to the treaty concluded with Austria, he said
that Prussia was still determire.l to fulfil most faithfully
all her bbligations concerning it. As to what was said
about Prussia being placed by that treaty in the position
of a merely auxiliary Power, the answer might be that
Austria herself was of the German States the most in
that position, and the most menaced. He could truly
declare that the Prussian Government was disposed to
impart the greatest possible clearness to her obligations
towards the German States and the Western Powers.
He concluded by saying that he had more confidence in
the future than the Prussian Chambers seemed to
have."

SAXONY.
A letter from Dresden of the 16th announces
the arrival at that capital on that day of King
Frederick William of Prussia. Tho Queen of
Prussia has been staying there since the 18th. She
is a sister of the Queen of Saxony, both of them
Princesses of Bavaria.
Since the accession of the present King of
Saxony to the throne the relations betwean the
two Courts have been very intimate. The visit of
the King of Prussia to Dresden at the present
moment is regarded as of political importance. M.
de Manteuffel has also proceeded there, and deli-

THE COUNTRY NO WSPAPE.RS.

At a meeting of newspaper proprietors, held in
Glasgow ou the 17th of March inst., Mr. Pagan, of
the Glasgow Herald, in the chair, it was moved by
Mr. Gunn, of the North British Daily Mail,
seconded by Mr. Alexander, of the Glasgow Cou-
rier, and unanimously resolved,-
1. Tbat the abolition of the newspaper stamp, and the
removal of the exiPting legal securities, are calculated to
lower the character and injure the usefulness of the press.
2. That the term "Taxes on knowledge," as applied
to the newspaper stamp, is delusive and untrue.

3. That the privilege of free transmission by post is an
ample equivalent for the stamp charge, and tends to the
equal distribution of intelligence throughout remote and
poor districts, as well as in populous and wealthy locali-
ties.

4. That in the opinion of the meeting a continuance
of the present system is'desired by the great mass of the
community.
5. That the meeting concurs in the resolutions adopted
on this subject by the London newspaper proprietors,
which embody the above sentiments in detail, and a
copy of which it is understood has been placed in the
hands of every member of Parliament.
0. Tbat a cojiy of the above resolutions, signed by
the chairman, be scut to the menalltra of Parliament for
Scotland ; and that they be respectfully and earnestly
requested to support the views indicated therein.

favour of the project, and nearly all of them have agreed
to accept the fair value of the land required fur the rail-

KENDAL AND WINDERMERE.

The statement of accounts to be submitted to the pro-

received on capital account, and 213,1741. expended,
leaving a balance against the company of 1,8241. The
revenue account for the half-year ending the 31st of Dec.
last shows that 7,005/. had been received, and 2,8251.
expended, leaving a profit on the working of 4,1831.
Out of this sum 1,2191. is deducted for interest on de-
bentures, and 1,2411. for interest on preference shares,
leaving a balance of 1,7221. The reserved profits amount
to 2,7771., which, added to the latter sum, make a total
of 4,500/. to the credit of revenue. A dividend of ss.
per share, less income tax, would amount to 1,070/., and
leave a balance of 3,430/.
