Two ATTEMPTED SIIICIDES.—Thomas Stewart, an old
man, was charged before Mr, Tyrwhitt with attempting to
commit suicide by drowning in the Serpentine.
One of the boatmen of the Royal Humane Society de-
posed that hearing cries for assistance from persons on the
shore of the Serpentine, he rowed up in his boat and found
the defendant in the water—which at the spot was not less
than six feet deep—in a state of insensibility. He imme-
diately got him out and took him ashore to the society's
receiving house. •
In answer to Mr Tyrwhitt, Jhe boatman said that the de-
fendant was 30 yards from the shore when he rescued him
Mr Tyrwhitt asked the poor follow what he had to say to
the charge, and he replied that he was in a state of poverty,
and that had induced lant to do it. He had been out of work
for six weeks, and had not a relative in the world.
Mr Tyrwhitt remanded him for a week.

MARKETS—This Day.

DIAII.K-LANE.

Fresh up to our market to-day the arrivals of home-
grown wheat wore moderate. The trade for all qualities
was in a sluggish state, at Monday's decline in the quota-
tions of is per quarter. _

The supply of foreign wheat on the stands was by no
means extensive. Dantzic wheat was held at quite pre-
vious rates; otherwise the foreign trade was dull, at barely
late rates.

Floating cargoes of grain moved off slowly, at previous
quotations.
For all descriptions of barley the trade ruled heavy, at
fully the late decline in the currency. The show of sam-
ples on offer was tolerably large.
Malt sold heavy, at the late decline in the currency.
For oats there is a moderate inquiry, about stationary
prices. The market was fairly supplied with most descrip-
tions.

Beans and peas ruled firm, at extreme rates.
In flour a moderate business was transacted, at previous
quotations.

Presentation of the Freedom of the City of

London to Garibaldi,

(Tins DAY.)

General Garibaldi, to-day, met with another ova-
tion in his progress from Prince's-gate to the
Guildhall to receive the freedom of the city of Lon-
don. At a very early hour large numbers of the
metropolitan police were posted on the different
points in the line of route, but on this occa-
sion they were placed in clusters at the en-
trances of the principal streets, and not in
the usual way, when they are called upon to
keep clear any particular road for a public proces-
sion. The c.ucitement occasioned by the rumour of
Garibalth's abrupt determination to quit England,
although officially contradicted in both Houses of
Parliament last night as being in any way con-
nected with political reasons, no doubt greatly
augmented the crowds of persons aesemblcd, and
opinions were freely discussed as to the real nature
of the necessity that had led General Garibaldi to
forego his proposed visit to the principal towns and
cities in the United Kingdom. The spectators
assembled along the entire road, from Mr, Seeiey's
to the west of Temple-bar, although large, were as
nothing compared with the gigantic gather-
ing that took plebe to welcome the
General's arrival in London. At the National
Gallery and on the steps of St. Martin's Church
the largest numbers took their station, and as a
matter of course at these particular places the cheer.
ing was the loudest and the most prolonged, but
along the whole line of road traversed by the
general he was received by the most cordial greet-
ing. Very little display in the shape of flags,
banners, &c., was made without the City bounds,
although a somewhat greater attempt was made in
Fleet-street and Cheapaide.
About 12 o'clock an open carriage and four drove
up to Mr. Seely's house, and in a few minutes after
General Garibaldi, Mr. J. Richardson, the
mover of the vote in the Court of Common
Council, and Mr. Alderman Abbiss the seconder,
in his scarlet robes, en'ered the vehicle
and attended by his suite in other carriages, the
cortege, aided by a body of the metropolitan police,
drove along Piccadilly, turning down St. James's
street into Pall Mall, and straight on, along the
north side of Trafalgar-square, in front of the
National Gallery, into the Strand. The carriages
passed through Temple-bar, along Fleet-street,
Ludgate-hill, the south side of St. Paul's, Cheapside,
turning up King-street to the Guildhall. Upon
the arrival of the General and his suite at the
Guildhall, he was received at the entrance by the
members of the City Lands Committee, and con-
ducted by them through the hall and loggias (the
line of route being lined with raised seats on both
sides), through the chamber of the aldermen, to the
council chamber, and to the dais prepared for him
on the left of the Lord Mayor, where the presenta-
tion of the, freedom took place. The reception of
the General by the civic functionaries was enthu-
siastic, the ladies vieing with the gentlemen in
testifying the warmth of their admiration,
After the usual formal introductions,

The City Chamberlain, Mr. B. SCOTT, then, in
his usual fluent style, proceeded to congratulate the
gallant General upla his ar:ival in England, end
alluded to the many distinguished personages who
had been presented with the freedom of the City of
London. The Chamberlain then, in the prescribed
form, delivered the freedom, enclosed in a gold box,
to the General, who, at the conclusion of the cheer-
ing, replied, and thanked the citizens of London for
the honour they had conferred upon him, and also
expressed the gratification his visit to England had
afforded him, where he had received nothing but
honour from the bravest and noblest people in the
world.

The General then, with his suite, returned and
proceeded to the Mansion-house, where a luncheon
was prepared, and a whole host of guests invited to

receive him.

The General returned to Princes-gate by MOOT-
gate-street, into the City-road, up to the Angel,
along Pentonville-hill and Pentonville-road, by way
of King's cross to Euston.road, Euston-square, and
IVlarylebone-road, turning southwards down Port=
land-pleas, Langham-place, and so into Oxford..
street and Hyde Park.
The casket in which the freedom was derositcd
is of solid gold, and weighed nearly 18 ounces,
is of a very simple character, rising with what is
called technically an "ogee" projection, carrying
its ornaments over the whole of the lid, which is
decorated with elaborately foliated scrolls, sur-
rounding an emblazonment of the City arms. In
front is an ornament in diamonds, containing what
the general himself has called, not his coat of arms,
or heraldic bearings, which ha does not profess that
his family ever possessed, but " the family mark" of
gs.
a star with five points, in the centre of which is the
initial of the surname, " he having expressed a
hope that the City would think proper so far to iden-
tify the gift in connection with the emblems adopted
by his family. In other respects the box is massive
and simple. On the inner side of the iid is engraved
the following inscription :
"Lawrence, Mayor.—A Common Council holden
in the chamber of the Guildhall of the City of Lon-
don, on Thursday, the 7th day of April, 1864.
" Resolved,—That the Honorary Freedom of the
City be presented to General Giuseppe Garibaldi,
on the occasion of his visit to the City, as a tribute
of respect to the roost generous, brave, and disin-
terested of patriots; and that the same be presented
to him in a gold box of the value of one hundrel
guineas. . " WOODTHORPE."

[The courtesy of
a ticket of admission to
the Council Chamber Was not extended to some
of the representatives of the daily journals, and
consequently many Were left dependent upon the
kindness of friends for their information. When the
ancient privileges of the corporation are in danger,
either in Parliament or
elsewhere (as in the case of
the amalgamation of the city and metropolitan
police), then the representatives of the London
press are to a man treated with very marked
attention !]

Mutinous Outbreak at
Reformatory,
the Castle Howard

An outbreak of the most serious nature, but fortunately
not resulting in sacrifice of life, occurred at the Castle
Howard Reformatory about six o'clock on Sunday evening.
It seems some ill-feeling had been engendered among the
inmates against the labour master, who is stated to have
whipped some of the lads. From the circumstances, it
would seem a favourable opportunity had been waited for
revenge, and on Sunday the Rev. Ishmael Fish, M.A., the
was absent at duty, and nut return to the school till
superintendent (who possesses the most complete authority),
did
evening. In the morning the inmates of the reformatory
were all marched to Welburn Church, as usual, and no signs

made upon the doors, which were broken open. A des-
perate fight was kept up for some time, and eventually
nine of the inmates succeeded in making their escape.
It appears, however, that more than one-half of those
concerned in the riot repented early, and did not leave
the place, but a regular hue and cry was raised after
those who had absconded, and as they had all set
off in the direction of the Castle Howard Woods,
almost all the inhabitants of Welburn village joined in the
pursuit. Tho result was, that by 8 o'clock six of the runa-
ways were retaken. A messenger was despatched to Malton
for the aid of the police, and Superintendent Walmsley,
with constables, at once set off to the reformatory, and on
the way met and captured one of the lads. Before midnight
all save a lad named Heaton were captured, and six of the
ringleaders, named Arnold, Hill, Davis, Walker, Pollard,
and in
custody at the Malton police-
aothers—West and Gibson—were confined in
s t,
o another.
Two were
ot
hers_ placed
e w
cells of the reformatory. A reward was promptly issued for
the capture of Heaton, who is supposed to have made for
the coast. The narratives of eseapes from the extemporised
truncheons of the rioters used against the officers are really
marvellous. The only person seriously injured is the
schoolmaster, who was attacked with fire •irons, which it
appears had been made red-hot. By seizing them to defend
himself, he is much burnt about the hands and arms. By
midnight the riot was entirely quelled, and the prisoners
await their examination before the Malton Bench.
