LONDON, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 26, 1855.

While the secret plans of the Crimean Generals
fill us with mingled curiosity, fear, and hope, and
while we are willing parties to the ignorance, when
our knowledge might endanger their success, there
are other secrets'which we do wish to know, and
the knowledge of which might give us at home
something to do. Certain
concealed professedly
for the advantage of the
public service, would, there is reason to think, serve
the country better by being made public. We have
not a shadow of doubt that the Allied Generals,
if unshackled,- will give the best pcssible account
of GORTSCIIAKOFF and his army, also of KherSOLI,
Nicolaieff, and Odessa, WO should not even
despair of their makin; Ismail and Bessarabia
uncomfortable winter quarters for the foe.
Much less, indeed, than this may be all
they will be. able at this season to accord_

MARKET NEWS.—(This Day).

CORN EXCHANGE.

Fresh up today the supply of English wheat was
limited, and the show of samples was trifling. For most
kinds we hail only a moderate inquiry, yet Monday's
prices were supported.
Rather over 2,400 quarters of foreign wheat have come
to hand. The demand was wholly confined to retail quan-
tities, at full quotations.
There was a steady business doing in floating cargoes, at
full prices.
The barley trade ruled heavy, at Monday's curronoy.
The malt trade was far from active, at late rates.
Good sound oats were firm, but not dearer. Inferior
parcels met a slow inquiry.
Beans, peas, and flour were steady, and the quotations
were well supported.

70 THE ELECTORS OF THE BOROUGH OF SOUTHWARK.
GENTLEMEN,—I have received within the
last few hours the melancholy announcement of the death
of Sir William Molesworth. I assure you that I receive this intelli-
gence with deep and sincere regret, not only for the loss of one to
whom I, with many other of his constituents, was indebted for in-
valuablo services to the commercial interests of the borough, but
for the loss that must be of importance to a Government in which he
held so high an office, the onerous duties of which he was pre-emi-
nently qualified by his talents, his character, and his industry to
fu!fil.

Had I not been absent from England, and unavoidably detained
for some days longer, I Acuid not thus early address you; but in
order that my numerous friends may iv .t remain in doubt as to my
intentions, while at a distance from them, and encouraged by your
reception of me on a former occls!on, I take this early opportunity
to solftit your suffrazes, to fill the vacancy that has so unexpectedly
occurred in the representation of cur borough in the Commons
House of Parliament.

I an• well known to many of my brother electors in the several
cl;stricts of the borough, as having taken part in efforts for Its
prosperity and improvement; and I continue to enjoy an ilenttty
of intaest therein with all its inhabitants. _ _ _

...
The Political prlrici*s I profess are the same as those .I had the
honour to lay be,i)re yen when r addr?ssed you at the General Elec-
tion of 1852 ; I am an advocate for an Extension of the Suffrage, for
the protection of the Voter by the Ballot, for every step towards the
perfecting of Religious Liberty and Equality. and the >on-endow-
ment by the btate of any Religions Sect whatever, fur a Reform of
the defective system of Administration in our Public Departments;
and, in common with the great bulk of the Nation, I feel that no Go-
vernment should be supported that does not unflinchingly, unequivo-
cally. and by every means that it can command, prosecute the present
legitimate War to suchn termination as shall leave no doubt of the
security arid future progres of CiviliaaVon.
As a large Employer I am always anxious for the well-doing of
the Working Classes, whether as regards their Religious, Educa-
tional, or Material improvement.
If these principles and sentiments be such as to justify you in re-
turning me as your Representative, yea may confidently rely upon
my acting up t) them upon all occasions, and upon my untiring zeal
in pzomoting, and watching over, the Local Interests of our Borough.
I am, Gentlemen, your moat obedient humble servant,
G. SCOVELL.

R. HOWARD, Surgeon-Dentist, 52, Fleet-
street, has introduced an entirely new description of ARTI-
FICIAL TEETH, fixed without springs, wires, or ligatures. They so
perfectly resemble the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from
the original by the closest observer; they will never change colour or
decay, and will be found very superior to any teeth ever before used.
This method does not require the extraction of rots, or any painful
operation, and will support and preserve teeth that are loose, and is
guaranteed to restore articulation and mastication. Decayed teeth
rendered sound and useful in mastication.--52, Fleet-street. At
home from ten till five.

ST. PETERSBURG' Oct. 16.—The Marine Journal
publishes a despatch from the port captain of Ayan
—a port belonging to the Russian American
Trading Company on the coast of the Sea of Ochotsk
—Captain Lieutenant Kashswaroff, to Major-
Wentzel, Governor-General of Siberia, in which
he states that on the 9th of July an English
squadron, composed of two sailing frigates and a
steamer, under the command of Charles Frederick
(?), appeared in the bay of Ayan. As soon as their
approached was perceived the inhabitants of the
little town and the small garrison evacuated the
place, "in obedience to the instructions receive&
from the Governor-General." The enemy took
away a quantity of deals, timber, and other mate-
rials belonging to the company. A small new iron
steamer, also the property of the company, had
been sunk in the port, but the enemy succeeded in
raising it and blowing it up, whilst three smaller
craft were carried away by the frigates. They

I last wrote OrotFe to you a considerable change took
place all along our line. It is one of those changes
which, without materially altering the relative po-

On the Tchernaya and on the Baidar line, on the
contrary, our position has changed by an advance
of the Sardinians and the French. The Sardinians,
who had hitherto only a small detachment on the
ether side of the Tchernayai have since Wednesday
last, the 10th inst., taken up a position on the
plateau running along the left bank of the Tchou-
lieu river as high up as Upu. The next day a
battalion of infantry and a squadron of cavalry
went np to Ozembash and made the round over
the plateau leading down towards Aitodor. There
is very little to be seen of the Russiaus.-in: that
neighbourhood. They have entirely left the left
bank of the Tchouliou, and their moat advanced

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Sin,—The recent foolish law regarding the transmis-
sion of newspapers is already, manifest. Parties attach
the penny stamp on unstamped newspapers, concluding
they go free ; whereas, if they happen to exceed the
specified weight, are "surcharged" pretty heavy, and,
consequently, are refused by those to whom addressed,
and sent to the "Dead-letter" office, where they are
s, used up 1"
.This piece of newspaper folly is on a par with the
florin and threepenny-bits, the coining of which opened
a wide door to the dishonest, inasmuch as a receiver, in
most instances, takes them for half-crown and four-
pence, and the roguish payer reaps the benefit of this
Government oversight, or mistake, or folly, or whatever
you please to call it.

Mr. V. Houlten, the newly-appointed chief secretary
to the government of Malta, in place of Mr. Henry
Lushington, deceased, has arrived in that
island.
The Leipzic Gazette publishes the.follo wing letter from
Danmark, under date of October 1i ;—" Agood
said here about the arrival of two members deal is
of the Eng.
limb parliament, Sir Watkin W. Wynn and Sir Fitzroy
view
of who have come direct from London with the
of ascertaining the state of the negotiations betwee
Denmark on the one hand, and North America, as also
Prussia, on the other, respecting the Sound Dues. These
gentlemen appear to attach a decisive importance to the
resolutions which Prussia will take in this affair. It is
also said these gentlemen have been sent by a great Lon-
don banking-house, deeply interested in the loans for
which Denmark has given, by way of security, the pro-
nee of the Sound toll."
ITALIAN TUVITRES.—The Spener'scheZeitung contains
an- interesting article on the statistics of the Italian stage,
according to which the total number of Italian theatres
amounts to 117. Of these, 95 are in Italy (viz., in Lom-
bardy, 28 in 20 towns; in Sardinia, 20 in 17 towns ; in
Naples and Sicily, 9 in 6 towns ; in the Papal States, 16
in 11 towns ; in Tuscany, 16 in 8 towns ; in Lucca, 1 ;
in Parma, 2 ; in Modena, 2 ; in Corsica, 1 ; and the re-
maining 22 are scattered over the globe. Of these latter
we find 6 in Spain and Portugal (at Madrid alone there
are 5), 6 in Greece, Turkey, and the lonian Islands, 3 in
1 in England (London), 1 in France (Paris), 1
in Denmark (Copenhagen), 1 in Holland (Amsterdam),
1 in Germany (Vienna), 1 in Africa (Algiers), 1 in Ame-
riea (Rio Janeiro). It needs scarcely be mentioned that
by far the greatest part of these theatres are exclusively
dedicated to operatic performances.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.

The supply of beasts in to-day's market was but mode•
rate ; the trade, however, was excessively heavy, at barely
Monday's decline in the quotations. We were scantily
supplied with sheep, which moved off slowly, at barely
stationary prices. The general quality of the stock was
interior. The number of calves was comparatively small ;
yet the veal trade was very dull, at a decline of 2d per
Blbs. Pigs were a slow sale, on former terms. Mulch cows
were heavy, at from 141. to 191. each, including their mail
calf.

Sni—The inhabitants of this district are much indebted
to you for. our able exposition of the proceedings of the
churchwardens of this church, in your paper of the 23d

they will continue to make hay while the sun shine..

BOW-STREET.

Emily Legg was this morning again placed at the bar,
charged with violently assaulting Leah Livingstone.
It will be remembered that the unfortunate child,
Leah Levingstone, was on Saturday week playing in the
kitchen of a house in St. Martin's-lane, and having done
something which displeased the prisoner, she being a
servant to its parents, she seized a common kitchen
fork and drove' it into the child's eye.

The prisoner had been remanded from Alonday last
until to-day, in the hope that the unfortunate child
would be in attendance to give evidence against the
prisoner, but s'ich was not the case.
The mother of the child produced the following certi-
ficate :

44 Westminster Ophthalmic Hospital, Charing-cross.
" The inflammation in the left eye of Leah Living
stone is subdued. At present she can merely distin
guish light from darkness. Some improvement may
take place, but the natural vision of the organ is for
life destroyed.
(Signed)
" Sept. 3, 1854."
Mr. Jardine asked when it was thought that the child
would be able to attend
Mrs. Livingstone stated that she thought about Satur-
day next the child would be sufficiently recovered to
attend.
Mr. Jardine—Well, I shall remand the prisoner till
that day. Let her be brought up again on Saturday
next.
The prisoner hero again denied the charge, and stated
that she only struck the child with the handle of the
fork.
The prisoner was then removed from the bar.

CLERKEN WELL.
VIOLENT ASSAULT ON A FEMALE.— William. Greig,
aged 22, was placed at the bar before Mr. Tyrwhitt,
charged with assaulting Mrs• Margaret Bateman, a

cripple.
It appeared from the evidence that the prisoner, who
is the son-in-law of the complainant, went to her resi-
dence, 14, Clarendon-street, Somers-town, yesterday
afternoon at four o'clock, and asked if his wife was there.
The complainant stated that she was not there—that she
had taken her child to the doctor, he having shook the
child and made it very ill ; and that he was a great
brute, and if anything happened ho would be punished
for it. When she was about closing the door the pri-
lsoner, who has several times ill-used her before, pushed
her against the wall with great violence, and struck her
on the mouth, and caused her a great loss of blood. He
had cruelly ill-treated her daughter, whom she, a poor
needlewoman, and a cripple, was compelled partially to
support, and the only money he had given her was the
email sum of 2s. 6d. since the commencement of last
July. He called her several beastly names, and having
pushed her with great violence against the wall, ran up
into her room. When the policeman was called he
found the prisoner in a fighting attitude, and very
violent.
The prisoner said that it was all false.
Mr. Tyrrwhitt, after commenting in very feeling terms
upon the conduct of the prisoner, said that, in striking
his mother-in-law, be only showed his brutal propen-
eitieQ, and to mark his sense of his conduct, ho should
fine him 405., or two months hard labour in the House
of Correction.
The prisoner was locked up.

THE BALTIC FLEET.

NAIaGEN, Aug. 22 to 28.—The gale which was
blowing from the westward when the Geyser left
the fleet, with the mails, for Dantzic, last Tuesday,
increased next day to such violence as to oblige us
to let go a second anchor, our top-gallant masts
being already on deck. It continued until the 24th,
when the wind changed to the northward, and
lulled.
Aug. 22.—The Mercator transport arrived with
the bullocks from Elsinore.
Aug. 23.—The Amphion sailed to the eastward.
Aug. 2t, 4 a.m.—The French steamer Pelican
arrived from Dantzic,and in the evening two French
gun-boats joined the fleet from home. It is rather
late for them to come out, but not too late, I be-
lieve, for what they have to do, and from what I
hear work is in store for them,
Aug. 25.—At 10 a.m., the 'Vulture took the
Aolus in tow, and proceeded with her to sea for a
short distance. She returned at 6.30, and took the
Calcutta in tow as far as the Dager-Ort. The Cal-
cutta takes home the invalids of the fleet, in charge
of Dr. Jeffcot. She will call at Faro for those who
were on board the Cottingham on their way to
England when she was wrecked. They are at pre-
sent in the Belleisle hospital ship.

the magistrate, this moring for a summons against Mr.
Drirnsdale, a patent manure manufacturer, cat rying on
business at Carr-street, Limehouse, for causing an
alarming nuisance in the district to the annoyance of
the inhabitants, who were in a state of ill-health and
great alarm through the poisonous effluvia emitted from
the premises in question.

LEAMINGTON STAKES.

Shoreham was backed with a strong display of con-
fidence at 7 to 2, 100 to 30, and 3 to I—the last bet laid
was 240 to 80. The other quotations in reference to this
event were to comparatively small sums.

ST. LEGER.
The principal transaction was 250 to 100, twice, about
Rifleman. Lord of the Isles was nominally at 7to 2,
and Oulston at 4 to 1 ; the former was dropping back to
Oulston's " figure," but an offer to lay 200 even he beats
the latter gave him the vantage ground again. Grreculus
Esuriens was backed at 12 and 10 to 1, and 12 to 1
would have been taken about Capucine. Marchioness
