JAPAN.

Commander McDougal, of the Federal steamer
Wyoming, under date of Yokohama, Japan, July,
22d, officially reports an engagement between his
vessels and the land batteries, and three war ships
at Simosak, in the territory of the Prince of Nagota.
The fire of the Wyoming sunk one, disabled another,
and drove off the third of the vessels, after which
the Wyoming withdrew, being herself considerably
injured in the contest. The Wyoming was struck
11 times, and had four men killed and seven
wounded. Tho attack by the Wyoming was in
consequence of an American merchant steamer
having been fired upon by vessels of the Prince of
Nagota.

British and French ships.

flag-ship and a gunboat, for the purpose of punish-

ANOTHER LITTLE WANT OF RULE.

Mr. Chidley applied for the release of a bankrupt from
custody.

'us Honour said he could not hear it; the case was not
in the " list."

Cdr. Chidley submitted that his client ought not to be the
sufferer for that, for it had been entered in his presence by
the Registrar in the book, and the bankrupt had been
brought up on his Honour's warrant.
His Honour said he could not understand it. It was
not in his list.
The Registrar's book was produced, verifying Mr.
chidley's assertion, but after all it became a question
whether it had not been struck out at the last moment, and
as no one could be found to answer for the scratching the
case proceeded, but was of no general interest.

GREEK-BONDHOLDERS,

MEETING TUs DAY.
A public meeting of the Greek bondholders, con-
vened by the committee, was held to-day. Mr.
ileslevvood, who occupied the chair, opened the
proceedings by stating that the meeting had been
called together to consider the present condition of
the holders of the loans of 1824 and 1825, He con-
gratulated them an the fact that their position had
eaanged for the better since he last had the honour
of addressing them in April, 1862. There were now
limy doubts in the minds of the bondholders
which the committee were desirous to clear up,
and which it would be fur their benefit to be ex-
plained. The committee had abstained from seek-
ing an interview with King George, now sojourning
in this country, because as a constitutional monarch
lie could not reply to their address without consult-
ing his responsible minister, even were he conver.
cant with the subject. Another reason for not
Presenting themselves to the King was, that Count
410onneck was not his Finance Minister, and
the seeking of the Count's opinion might place
im in an insidious position, and bring down upon
him the adverse feeling of the parties in power at
Greece. The committee had a right to expect that
When the new Government was formed, after the
arrival of his Majesty at Athens, that the settle-
tnent of the debts should claim priority of attention ;
and if that p alicy be followed, a Minister might
12,robably be despatched from Athens with
full, powers to treat upon the matter. The
in:tnedh?ld'are had a right to believe in the
confide4tY 3f the new Government, and to have
vi,,,od bee! in their upright intentions. Mr. Hazle-
showing athreviewed the various resources of Greece,
enabled to dig by a judicious policy she would be
the positioe vvehh.arge her debts, and
place herself in
cancelled red boleh she was entitled to hold. The
:blue to x50,01:18 amounted to 1250,000, and the
.by moving a Mr. Haz'ewoed concluded
ins satisfaction, theartles of resolutions, express-
about to enter upon the kingdom of Greece was
under King George, tZ et the meeting perceived byonstitutional Government
this event a sure guerent
existing debts of the State, and that the Govern-
1i
!Went would direct its
earliest attention to their
quidation, and that when the
Pr
oer time arrived
the committee would undertake p
to
Poaal for the discharge of the debt in a man make a fair prat
that
'with
should be consistent with the honour of Greece, and
the just rights of the bondholders. M.

quarters that only pression that pre_

money contracted for had been received b

THE POLISH QUESTION.
The Memorial Dtplonzalique publishes the fol
lowing :

" We belieVe that all that can be stated with certainty
respecting the intentions of Russia towards Poland is re-
duced to this. It is decided in principle that a constitution
and provincial institutions will be given to every portion of
Russia. This determination has been communicated to
the great powers. No definitive steps have'as yet been
taken. The Marquis Wielopolski and a person of high
rank (who has recently been on a mission at Paris) have
been called to St. Petersburg, to co-operate in drawing up
the project of the new Constitution."

MR. TOOLE'S BENEFIT.—Mr. J. L. Toole, the
highly popular comedian, announces his annual benefit, and
if humour of the purest kind, pathos in its most natural
phase, and a generous and ever ready desire to serve profes-

will be filled to repletion on Wednesday evening.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE.

The supply of foreign sheep on sale here to-day was mo-
derately good, but was less extensive than on Monday last.
The trade ruled firm, on rather higher terms. The beasts
came to hand in somewhat improved condition.
From our own grazing districts the arrivals of beasts
exhibited a falling off, compared with Monday last, and
there was a great deficiency in the weight of nearly all
breeds. Prime Scots, Devons, and crosses sold freely, at
2d per 81bs. Otherwise the beef trade ruled inactive, but at
full prices. The primest stock realised 5s per Sibs.
From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northamptonshire
we received 2,700 shorthorns, &c.; from other parts of Eng-
land, 600 of various breeds ; from Scotland, 11 Scots ; and
from Ireland, 400 oxen and heifers.

The supply of sheep from all quarters showed a heavy
decrease, and most breeds were received in but middling
condition. The demand generally was more active, and an
advance of quite 2d per Sibs took place in prices, compared
with this day se'nnight. Prime Downs and half-breds
readily commanded 5s 4d per 81bs.
A few prime lambs were disposed, of at 6s per 81bs; other-
wise nales ware effected at about mutton prices.
The supply of calves was only moderate, yet the trade was
in a sluggish state. In prices, however, no change took
place, the top quotation being 4s 8d per Sibs.
Pigs wore in slow request, at last Monday's currency.

rate form, is to establish the fact that the Romansch
language is not, as is generally supposed, a dialect of
the ancient Latin, but that it is a relic of the Scytho-
CimcrOrienne, that is, of the language of a nation
who anciently dwelt on the northern shores of
the Black Sea having, emigrated from the summits
of the Hymalayan mountains. The Duke, in sup-
port of his theory, proceeds elaborately to examine
at very great length the names of a vast number of
places, and certainly arrives at some surprising re-
sults, which will be new to our antiquarians and
archwalogists, to whose attention we earnestly re-
commend the book. Some of our readers may not
be aware that Romansch is spoken by the peasantry
at Coire, in Switzerland, .and that there is a news-
paper published there weekly in that language►
entitled Il Grischum.

MARK-LANE.

There was a much better feeling in the trade for English
wheat in the country markets, held on Saturday, and in
many instances prices advanced is. per quarter. Barley
was firmer, and malting qualities were held at enhanced
rates. Other articles ruled steady in price. Letters from
New York represent the trade for wheat and flour as in a very
sluggish state, at reduced currencies. On the continent
the export demand for produce is much restricted.
The arrivals of English grain up to our market last week
exhibit a further increase. The imports from abroad were
95,836 quarters of wheat, 8,717 barley, 26,301 oats, 5,039
beans, 400 peas, 1,826 tares, 1,825 tares, 8,281 linseed, 6,953
oilseeds, 3.950 maize, 160 sundry seeds, 661 sacks, and
1,357 barrels of flour.
A moderate supply of home-grown wheat was received
fresh up to this morning's market, and the quality of the
produce was, for the most part, excellent. There were
several buyers in attendance from the North, and the de-
mand ruled active both for red and white qualities. A
clearance was readily effected, and the prices realised were
from 113 to 2s per quarter above those current on Monday
last.
The foreign wheat trade did not participate in the im-
provement to the same extent. However, an increased
amount of business was transacted, particularly in Ameri-
can produce, and in several instances an advance of quite is
per quarter took place in prices.
Floating cargoes of grain commanded more attention,
and the quotations had an upward tendency.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE.

The supply of foreign sheep on sale here to-day was mo-
derately good, but was less extensive than on Monday last.
The trade ruled firm, on rather higher terms. The beasts
came to hand in somewhat improved condition.

From our own grazing districts the arrivals of beasts
exhibited a falling off, compared with Monday last, and
there was a great deficiency in the weight of nearly all
breeds. Primo Scots, Devons, and crosses sold freely, at
2d per Sibs. Otherwise the beef trade ruled inactive, but at
full prices. The primest stock realised 5s per Slbs.

From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northamptonshire
we received 2,700 shorthorns, &c.; from other parts of Eng-
land, 600 of various breeds; from Scotland, 11 Scots ; and
from Ireland. 400 oxen and heifers.

The supply of sheep from all quarters showed a heavy
decrease, and most breeds were received in but middling
condition. The demand generally was more active, and an
advance of quite 2d per 81bs took place in prices, compared
with this day se'nnight. Prime Downs and half-breds
readily commanded 5s 4d per 81bs.
A few prime lambs were disposed of at 6s per Sibs; other-
wise tales were effected at about mutton prices.

The supply of calves was only moderate, yet the trade was
in a sluggish state. In prices, however, no change took
place, the top quotation being 4s 8d per 81bs.
