POLICE INTKLLIGENCE.

BOW-STREET.—The Rev. Joseph Elliott, said to be
a dissenting minister from Glasgow, was paced at the
bar, charged with indecent exposure in the shop of Mrs.
Crow, tobacconist, of Long-acre.
The prisoner declined to put any questions to the wit-
nesses, whose evidence was direct, but sought to ex-
tenuate his offsnce by stating that he was occasionally
unable to control himself, owing to an unaccountable
state of excitement which came upon him. On the oc-
casion in question, too, he had been without food for a
long time, and the little drink he had taken tended to
aggravate his natural malady. The defendant then called
Mr. Spalding, the wholesale stationer, of Drury-lane, to
speak to his character, and said that a great many per-
sons of respectability could satisfy his worship on this
point.
Mr. Spalding stated that it was true he had known
the prisoner for a very long time, and always beliesed
him to be a person of most unexceptionable character. He
was extremely well connected, and popular in his voca-
tion. He hat never any reason to suppose that the de-
fendant's mind was affected.
Mr. Hall or lured him to enter into his own recog-
nisanees in 801. to be of good conduct for the future if
Mr. Spalding would be also buund for him in the sum
of 401.
This was agreed to by Mr. Spalding, who underto k
to communicate with the prisoners' friend, and keep
him out of London.

" I have now to request you to inform his lordship that
the society will proceed to make the necessary recommen-
dations, as promptly as a due regard to the caution re-
quired in ascertaining the qualifications of candidates will
permit.

" Your obedient servant,
" ERNEST HAWKINS.

" B. Hawes, Esq."
In reference to our notice of some experiments made
on the 22d ult., at Shoeburyness, with a new cannon
shot, the invention of Mr. Worssam, engineer, that
gentleman requests us to explain that the charge used
for the Government round shot of 91b., against which
the new shot was tried, was 31b. of powder, while
Mr. Worssam's, weighing 161 b. (nearly double the
weight, but for the same bore), was tried with 21
and 20b. only. Mr. Worssam's shot, with the for-
mer of these charges, ranged 273, and with the latter
744 feet beyond that of the service. It is, therefore, a
natural inference that if Mr. Worssam's shot were fired
from a gun the weight of metal of which would allow of
the full charge of powder, it would obtain a range of, at
least, from 1,200 to 1,500 feet beyond the shot in pre-
sent use.
The following gentlemen have been appointed acting
assistant-surgeons on the hospital staff :—Mr. Henry
J.
Rose, Mr. W. J. Moffat, M.D., Mr. Wm. Skeen, Mr.
A. Grant, Mr. W. K. Brock, Mr. Wm. Henry Harris,
Mr. George Hayward, Mr. H. R. Dew, and Mr. Peter
Allen, M.D. •
Lieutenant-General Thomas, C. 8., has returned from
leave of absence, and resumed the command of the troops
serving in the Belfast district.
The 96th Regiment, which has just returned to En,-
land from the East Indies, after a lengthened tour of'l.
fareign service, is under orders for Ireland% and will
shortly be passed over from Liverpool to Templemore,
where it will be stationed for the present. This regi-
ment proceeded to New South Wales, the first divi-
sion on the 24th of July, 1839, and the head-quarter
division on the 25th of March, 1840 • and, after a
tour of duty in that colony, embarked for the East
Indies.

The monthly return of deserters from the army, the
navy, and the militia, made up at the Horse Guards and
Admiralty on Saturday last, show a large increase in
the number of defaulters, the total being 646. Of these,
280 are from the regular troops, and comprise 37 from
cavalry regiments, 32 from the Royal Artillery, 4 from
the Royal Sappers and Miners, 13 from the Household
troops, 13 from the Rifle Brigade, 6 from the 60th Royal
Rifle Regiment, 11 from the Royal Marines, and the
remainder from infantry of the line. The list of deser-
ters, stragglers, and men discharged with disgrace from
the navy is also large, there being 74 deserters, 15
aragglers, and one person discharged with disgrace
from her Majesty's ship Colossus—there are 24 deserters,
and from the Euryalus 18, From the various regiments
of militia there are 275 deserters, 216 of whom belonged
to the Ist Surrey Regiment.

4BKET NEWS-(THIB DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE.

The leading provincial markets held on Saturday were
but moderately supplied with wheat. Most kinds moved
off slowly, yet very little change took place in the quota-
tions. The barley trade was tolerably firm. Oats and
flour were dull; but beans and peas sold steadily, ut full
prices.

Our last advices from New York state that both wheat
and flour were firm, at very full prices. On the Conti-
nent only a limited business has been transacted in grain
on English account.
Very moderate supplies of English grain were received
up to our market coastwise. The imports from abroad
were 3,654 qrs of wheat, 1,693 barley, 6 beans, 893 tares,
8,202 linseed, 2,202 rapeseed, 108 mustard seed, 38 sundry
seeds, 539 sacks and 4,742 brls of flour.

Fresh up to our market, this morning, the arrivals of
English wheat, coastwise, were on a moderate scale. By
land carriage the receipts were small, and the show of
samples was rather limited. The attendance of millers
was by no means extensive ; yet, the demand for most
kinds of home-grown wheat ruled somewhat steady, at
last Monday's currency._ The general quality of the sup-
ply was seasonably good.
Foreign wheat, the supply of which on offer was but
moderate, was inactive as regards business. Importers,
however, were very firm in their demands, and late rates
were well supported.
In floating cargoes no business was reported.
Scarcely any foreign barley was in the market, and the
show of Englieh was but moderate. The barley trade was
firm, and, in some instances, paces were is per quarter
higher than on Monday last.

The sale for all kinds of malt was heavy. In prices no
change to )1c place.
The supply of oats was very moderate; yet the oat trade
was rather inactive, at late rates.
We had a fair inquiry for beans, at full prices. The
supply was small.
Peas sold steadily, but no change took place in their

value.
The flour trade was rather firm, at last week's currency.

THE MISSION OF DROUYN DE L'HUYS.

We extract the following from a letter received
this morning from Paris. It is dated Sunday 6

p.m. :
" When we are told that M. Drouyn de l'H
is
is going to Vienna with
pacific intentions,' it s
net meant that he is charged by the Emperor a-
poleon or by the English Government to propose
guarantees or conditions less stringent or less
energetic than those already proposed to Russia ;
or that he i 3 to accept whatever concessions
the Czar may think proper to allow us. On the other
hand, it has never been intended that on entering the
hall where the Conference holds its sittings, M. Drouyn
de l'lluys is to open a fire of opprobrious epithets on
Prince Gert3cbakoff, try a croc-en-jambe with M. de
Buol, use scurrilous language behind his back against
the Prussian resident Minister, or, failing in his object,
propose to the company -all round -(coming fresh as he
does from England) to decide the quarrel there and
them by a pugilistic encounter, with Lord Jot
Russell, as his bottle-holder. We are all pacific, •
have been so, some think, too long ; had we
otherwise at an earlier period man,: believe
matters would not- now be as they aro.' To
that the presence of the French 1111-4,,ter at Vienna
is a proof of our disiloilawn to a"..esurne a leis decided
attitude, to withdraw tour,. armies from the Crimea,
and consent to our owif cf...tscredit, and become the
oltject of the eulogy or tl:e pity of the Assemblee
Nationale, is what cannot be all'owed. IT. Drouyn de
Lliuys' reason for going to Lena lon was, very probably,
to come to an understanding with the English Govern-
ment on the necessity of notallocwing time to be frittered
away at Vienna, but at once to present another ultnna-
tire, and call upon the Russian Plenipotentiary to declare
bl ae It
latter,
to
e 0
n s iinsist
rejectionuponof
theit
ia.
at'sd breaking
kh eventng u p
of the
of the Conferences. To this very likely the Eng-
lish Cabinet bas assented, and hence. the supposition
that towards the end of the present -week we ehall be
able to form a pretty clear idea of the state of affairs.
In the meantime it is expected that nos relaxation of hos-
tilities will take place before Sebastopol ; that the
siege will have been pressed on with a. vigour commen-
surate with the improvement in the .condition of the
tr.)ops and the favourable change in th e weather, sect
that, in the fulness of time, the
.long-talk ed of assault'
will be made."

ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE.

WESTERN CIRCUIT.-TAUNTON, MARCH 31.
- ATTEMPT AT MURDER BY •A MOTHER.

Mary Jennings, 29, was indicted for the attempted
murder of her son, Robert Jennings, at Wiveliscombe,
by throwing him into a cesspool.
Mr. Prideaux conducted the prosecution ; the pri-
soner was undefended,

The prisoner, who is a single woman, has three illegi-
timate cbilren, one of whom, an infant, she held in her
arms at the bar. The one whose attempted murder was
the subject of this trial, is a little boy, seven years of
age, and it appears that in the opinion of the prisoner
stood in the way of her being married to a young matt
who sometimes kept her company. Site had frequently
told some of the neighbours that she believed the young
man would marry her were it not fir the boy, and said
that she wished she might some day find the child dead.
Shortly before the occurrence which gave rise to the
present charge she also professed to have had horrible
dreams, and said to the neighbours that she was sure
"Bobby," meaning the little boy, would be drowned ;
anti she believed it would be in thJ pit. The pit was a
large cesspool in front of the privy, common to all the
houses in the court where the plisoner lived ; but it is
covered over with a large stone, which it would be int-
peesible for such a child to remove, and some of the wit-
nesses bad accordingly recommended her to calm her
fears 'on that account. On the afternoon of the sth of
October, however, the prisoner went to the houses of
some of the neighbours iu a very excited state, and cried,
" Oh, he's in the pit, he's in the pit:" They ran to the
pit, which contained filth upwards of four feet 'Jeep, and
there the hands of a chid were discernible strogg!hig
above the soil, and the prisoner's child wa3 dragged out
in a very exhausted state. When asked why she had
not pulled hint out, the prisoner said she could not. It
was clear, however, front the evidence of the witnesses
that some time must have elapsed before she gave the
alarm, as she had been to her father's cottage, where she
did not mention anything about the child immediately
before she came to them. The child was in court, but
Mr. Justice Erle, after tt. kieg to him privately, inti-
mated that he did not consider it desirable to call him
as a witness.
The jury found the prisoner guilty.
The learned judge, iu passing sentence, said he could
net conceive a more atrocious crime than that of which
the prisoner had been found guilty, violating, as she had,
all the feelings of a mother, and planning the death of
her own child, for some supposed advantage to herself.
She was sentenced to be transported for the term of her
natural life.

were intended for London. General Luders has
not as yet given any decision in the matter.

MR. HANNAY'S NEW NOVEL.
Now ready at all the libraries, in 3 vols.,
FUSTACE CONYERS
By the Author of" Singleton Fontenoy," &e.

From the .
Atheneum :—" Eustace Conyers is a fresh, genuine,
healthy book—beyond comparison Mr. Hannay's ablest, wisest, and
enatur st work. There is something in it better than story—there
is abundance of character. Character is Mr. Hannay's strength.
Much of Eastac t Conyers wia delight the reader beyond the por-
traits— glimpses of natural s'enery—pleasant satire on political and
social ways—brilliantepigrammatic sayings, thrown off with an afflu-
ence and carelessness testifying to no ordin try wealth of imagination,
but the present fascination and 'Asti ,g charm of the Wok will be
found in its gallery of living, vigorous, and subtle portraits."

PRICE OF GOLD.—Tho quotation of gold at Paris is
about at par (according to the last tariff), which, at the
English Mint price of 3/. 17s. 101 d. per ounce for stand-
ard gold, gives an exchange of 25.17 ; and, the exchange
at Paris on London at short being 25.15, it-follows that
gold is about 0.08 per cent. dearer in Paris than in Lon-
don. By advices from Hamburg, the price of gold is
426 k per mark, which, at the English Mint price of
3/. 17s. 10d. per ounce for standard gold, gives an ex-
change of 13.54 ; and, the exchange at Hamburg on
London at short being 13.51, it follows that gold is 0.12
per cent. dearer in London than in Hamburg. The
course of exchange at New York on London for bills at
60 days' sight is 1104 per cent. ; and, the par of ex-
change between England and America being 109 23-40
per cent., it follows that the exchange is nominally 0'67
per cent. in favour of England ; and, after making allow-
ance for charges of transport and difference of interest,
the present rate leaves a small profit on theimportation
of gold from the United States.

were intended for London. General Luders has

General Pelissier :

JUNE 3, 11 P.M.

The Russians have evacuated Soudjak Kaleh

and themselves destroyed 60 guns and six mor•

tars. The Circassians occupy the place.
A telegraphic despatch from Ruitchuk, dated
the 4th of June, announces that the telegraphic
communication between Varna and Balaklava has

been interrupted. It is feared that some days

will be required to establish it.

The Moniteur announces the official closing o.
tho Vienna Conferences.

VIENNA, TUESDAY EVENING.
A despatch, dated Galatz, June 1, says :
There was a great fire last night in the Artil-
lery and Cavalry stables, close to the ammunition
depot. The Austrian garrison succeeded in ex-

tinguishing the fire, but 103 horses were burnt.
The cholera is said to have appeared in the

Austrian army in Gallicia.

Letters received from the East mention the
probability of an attack on Anapa by the Allied
armies, supported by Mustapha Paella's corps and
the Circassians. It is probable that some notice

of such an intention has prompted the new move-

ment reported.

NEWSPAPER STAMP DUTIES BILL.

This bill was read a third time and passed.
Lord PORTMAN moved for returns of the actual
amount ofcorn sold and imported into England and Wales
in 1854.

Lord STANLEY of ALDERLEY had no objection
to the returns, but suggested that a select . committee
should be appointed, in order that a better mode of
taking the corn averages might be adopted, and to
whom the question of agricultural statistics should be
referred.

After a short discussion, in which the Earl of Malines-
bury, the Duke of Argyll, and the Earl of Harrowby
took part, the returns were ordered.
On the motion of Lord BROUGHAM, certain re-
turns connected with the amendment of the criminal
law were ordered.

On the motion that this bill be read a second time,
•Mr. MACGREGOR said that he did not rise to
oppose the second reading, but merely for the purpose
of stating that he had a great objection to the clause
which proposed that the Government should be em-
powered to lend to the company the sum of 400,0001,
for the purpose of enabling them to carry on their
works. He was no longe7 connected with the direction
of the South-Eastern Railway Company, and it, there-
fore, could not be said that he had any interested
motives in view in objecting to the clause.
Mr. RICH was glad the honourable member for
Sandwich did not oppose the second reading of the bill.
He was not aware that such a clause as the honourable
member had alluded to had been inserted in the bill.
The bill was then read a second time, and ordered to
be committed.

RUSSIA.

A letter from St. Petersburg states that Prince
Menschikoff, after a short stay in the Russian capi-
tal, had set off for Finland.
A letter from St. Petersburg, of 27th ult., in
the Constitutionnel, says :

" Accounts horn Sirnpheropol and Katasabasar state
that the families of the Russian employ6s and soldiers
are abandoning Tanrida, under the pretence of the dear-
ness of provisions, but in reality from a fear that the
whole of the Crimea will be conquered. For some time
past orders have been given not to send any more troops
into the Crimea, in order not to cause too lunch difficulty
in procuring supplies for them. and also in order not to
sacrifice their all, the picked troops of the Russian
armies. The Grand Dukes Nicholas and Michael are
not to return to the Crimea."
