THE FRENCH IN MEXICO.

The Paris papers publish the following news
from Mexico to the 10th of August, and from Vera
Cruz to the 17th of August :
" Since the last report received by the Minister of
War no particular change has taken place i❑ the
state of affairs. The military operations have been
chiefly the pursuit of the guerilla bands which are
spread in the neieibourhood of Mexico and the
occupation of various points, as Apam, Teotihuacan,
and Tlalpan, which enables us to form a sufficiently
extended rayon to protect the populations from
brigandage.
"On the 16th of July Col. Hennique, with the
regiment of marines which he commanded, left
Puebla for Vera Cruz, where he arrived on Aug 6,
and immediately embarked for Tampico; the battery
which defended the entrance of the river and the
bar was destroyed on the Bth by the guns of the
ships ; the troops landed on the 9th, and on the
11th the town surrended without resistance.

" On July 28 General Miramon arrived at Mexico,
where he was received by the Marshal Com-
mander in-Chief, to whom he intimated his inten-
tion to recognise the French intervention.
"The political state of affairs is daily improving,
the spirit of the population is favourable, and the
conviction that the new system will be maintained
mslcs them frankly accept the intervention of the
❑ew Empire.
" The news from the coast is also satisfactory.
The Mexican Empire has been declared at Carmen,
Tabasco, and Minatillan, and a small body of
auxiliary troops suffices to maintain ordi,r.
"The health of the troops is gocd.''

METROPOLITAN CATTLE.

Our market to-day was extensively supplied with foreign
stock, for which the demand ruled heavy on easier terms.
The arrival of beasts fresh up from our own grazing dis-
tricts were seasonably extensive as to number, but the
general quality of the stock was by no means first rate.
Prime breeds commanded a steady inquiry at full prices—
the top quotation being 5s per 8lbs; otherwise, the beef
trade was in a sluggish state, at a decline in the quotations
of 2d per 81bs, and at which a clearance was not effected.
From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton-
shire we received 2,500 shat-horns, &c. ; from other parts
of England, 500 various breeds; from Scotland, 5 Scots;
and from Ireland, 700 oxen and heifers.
The show of sheep was on the increase, and most breeds
were in fair condition. The mutton trade ruled somewhat
heavy, and the currencies gave way 2d per Bibs. The best
Downs sold at 5s 2d per 81bs.
The few lambs in the market sold at mutton prices.

The supply of calves was only moderate, and the veal
trade was inactive at last week's prices. The top figure
was 4s 8d per 81bs.

We have to report an improved sale for pigs, and a slight
upward movement in value.

THE EXPLOSION AT HouNsLow.—The property
destroyed is said to be very great. The following is a
copy of the report of the manager of the works, which w s
transmitted to the head of the firm in the City :—" Gentle-
men,--Threo of the incorporating mills et Bcdfont blew up
this morning at half-past two o'clock, One pats= was
burnt by the accident. Of three mills blown up one was on
that part of the works called the lower head. Two of them
were not in work at the time, the process having ceased
owing to the want of water. The explosions were loud, and
the building much damaged." We have received the fol-
lowing from Messrs. Curtis and Harvey :--" Three of the
incorporating mills at the Bedfont Gunpowder Works ex.,
plodod on Saturday morning, about two o'clock, but fortu-
nately no person was injured. Two of the mills standing
still and the third only working upon the ingredients be-
fore milled into powder, prevented the accident assuming
any more serious form than a loud report,"

MARK-LANE.

The trade for English wheat in the country markets held
on Saturday, was very dull, and prices declined from is to
2s per quarter. Fine malting barley was firm in price ;
but all other articles met a slow trade, and the quotations
had a downward tendency.

Advices from New York state that the export demand for
wheat and flour was very limited, and that prices had fur-
ther declined. On the Continent the corn trade generally
is dull.

The arrivals of English grain up to our market last week
were but moderate, '.rhe imports from abroad amounted to
14,026 quarters of wheat, 7,755 barley, 68,868 oats, 1,063
beans, 698 peas, 12 tares, 7,911 linseed, 544 oilseeds, 1,000
maize, 534 sundry seeds, 65 sacks, and 1,166 barrels of flour

Fresh up to Mark-lane to-day the arrivals of English
wheat were only moderate, but the quality and condition of
the produce were excellent. The demand both for red and
white qualities ruled heavy in the extreme, and the prices
realised were 2s per quarter lower than on Monday last•
The fall was equally great on Kent as on Essex produce.
There was a full average supply of foreign wheat on the
stands. All descriptions sold heavily, and a decline of is
per quarter took place in the currency of this day se'nnight.
Floating cargoes of grain were in limited request, and
the value both of wheat and spring corn had a downward
tendency.

There was an increased supply of English barley on
offer, and several parcels of Saale produce were on the
stands, in fine condition. Grinding qualities moved off
steadily at quite previous rates, otherwise the barley trade
was less active, at a deeline of Is. to 2s. per quarter.

In malt a fair average business was transacted, and prices
ruled firm.

The supply of oats on sale was very largo. The trade for
all qualities was in a sluggish state, and prices were 6d to is
per quarter lower than on Monday last.

The show of beans was very moderate, yet the demand
ruled inactive, at about previous rates.
Peas met a slow sale, on former terms. The show of
samples was much restricted.

Flour changed hands to a limited extent, and both Eng-
lish and foreign qualities changed hands at somewhat re-
duced rates.

WOOL.

The amount of business passing in English wool is less
extensive; nevertheless, toil Down and long descriptions
fully support last week's quotations. The demand for
colonial parcels is by no means active. Holders, however,
either of Cape or Australian produce are very firm, and the
tendency of prices is somewhat in favour of sellers. The
import, last week, was 1,107 bales from Jamaica, and 557
bales from Port Elizabeth.

BOROUGH HOP.

A full average business is passing in our market. Goad
and fine new hops command somewhat higher rates, and
the value of all other kinds is well supported. Picking is

POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

TILE LOVE OF PLEASURE AND DRESS—ROBBERY BY A
SERVANT.—HeIen Sarah Jollie, a young female, smartly
attired, and wearing a hat with feathers, was charged before
Mr. Knox with robbing Mr. Andrew Beresford, tailor, of
62, Margaret-street, Cavendish-square, of a quantity of
property.
Mr. Beresford said that on Saturday week the prisoner,
who had only been three weeks in his service as a nurse,
was dismissed by him, and after she had left he missed six
blankets. and several other articles. He at once communi-
cated with the police, and on Saturday night last he gave
her in charge in the Haymarket, when she said she had not
taken the things. a

Leaks Mann, a girl about 14 years of age, said she was
in Mr. Beresford's service at the same time as the prisoner,
and one day the prisoner asked her to go to a loan office to
get her a form, stating that she wanted to borrow £25 to set
up in business. At the loan office 4s was wanted for the
form, and as the prisoner had not got the money, she gave
her (witness) two of her master's blankets to pledge, and
she (witness) went with a friend, who pledged them at Mr.
Aldons's, in Berwick-street, for 6s, and the money was
given to the prisoner.
Mr. Knox asked the witness whether she made the state-
ment entirely voluntarily, and the witness said she did, and
that she told Mr. Beresford about the blankets last Satur-
day night, having left the previous Saturday.
Prisoner said the witness did not leave on the previous
Saturday.
Mr. Knox asked the witness whether she was with the
prisoner on Saturday night in the Haymarket?
The witness said she was, but not with the same set.

Police constable Davy, 47 C, proved taking the prisoner
into custody on Saturday night in the Haymarket. On
being searched only a bunch of keys, an empty purse, and
a loan office form for £25, filled up, were found in the pri-
soner's possession.
Mr. Knox remanded the prisoner for a week.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE.

Our market to-day was extensively supplied with foreign
stock, for which the demand ruled heavy on easier terms.
The arrival of beasts fresh up from our own grazing dis-
tricts were seasonably extensive as to number, but the
general quality of the stock was by no means first rate.
Prime breeds commanded a steady inquiry at full prices—
the top quotation being 5s per 8lbs; otherwise, the beef
trade was in a sluggish state, at a decline in the quotations
of 2d per 81bs, and at which a clearance was not effected.
From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton-
shire we received 2,500 shat-horns, &c. ; from other parts
of England, 500 various breeds; from Scotland, 5 Scots;
and from Ireland, 700 oxen and heifers.
The show of sheep was on the increase, and most breeds
were in fair condition. The mutton trade ruled somewhat
heavy, and the currencies gave way 2d per 81bs. The best
Downs sold at 5s 2d per Sibs.
The few lambs in the market sold at mutton prices.

The supply of calves was only moderate, and the veal
trade was inactive at last week's prices. The top figure
was 4s Sd per 81bs.

We have to report an improved sale for pigs, and a slight
upward movement in value.

THE ANNAMITE AMBASSADORS.

The Annamite Ambassadors were on Friday re-
ceived by the French Minister of Foreign Affairs.
The Moniteur gives the following account of the
reception :—" The Envoys and their suite wore on
the occasion the costume used for grand ceremonies,
which is precisely the same as was worn in the time
of the old Chinese dynasty of the Mings. Phan.
than• Gian, in spite of his profound emotion, ad-
dressed the Minister in very suitable language, and
the reply, together with the cordial reception of
which he was the object, soon set him at his case.
Phan•than-Gian told M. I)rouyn do Lhuys that on
the occasion of the ratifications of the treaty entered
into between France and the Emperor of A nnam,
the Emperor Napoleon having sent a mission to
Hue, the Emperor Tu-Duc, on his side, had desired
to send an embassy to compliment the Emperor of
the French, and that he was happy at having been
chosen by his Sovereign to fulfi that mission, and
at being thus able to present his homages to the
Minister. M. Dronyn de Lbuys replied that the
Emperor regretted that he could not at present re-
ceive the Annamite mission, but that his Mbjesty
had charged him to give them the most cordial
welcome ; the Ambassador expressed his gratifica-
tion at the attention which the mission had met
with on their voyage, and particularly since their
arrival on the French territory. Thanks to Captain
Aubaret, who acted as interpreter, the conversation
was kept up without difficulty, and turned succes-
sively on the visit to the arsenal at Toulon, the
arrival at Marseilles, &c. After taking tea which
was served to them, the Ambassadors and their
suite took leave of the Minister and returned to
their hotel much pleased with the reception they
had met with."

After what we have said about the uncertainty and diffi-

country, many hours in advance of the change, we need
hardly add that the eye thould always be ready to detect
the slightest indication of any change. Let not the farmer
doubt but that careful and constant attention to these points
will prove of infinitely more use to him than all the empiri-
cal predictions extant.

ROBBERIES BY SHOPMEN.—Edward Haycock, about 23
years of age, was placed at the bar charged with systematic
and continual robbery of his master, Mr. William Watts, a
chemist, at 71, Fulham-road.
Prosecutor said that the prisoner entered his employment
as assistant on the 26th of last month. In two or three
days afterwards prosecutor had occasion to leave town for
four or five days, the prisoner having charge of the business.
On the prosecutor's return he found the takings in the shop
to be very small, and spoke to prisoner about it, who said
he was not aware that he had sent any customers away.
Immediately after this prosecutor accompanied his wife for
three or four days on a visit to Hertfordshire, and on his
re-
turn again was so struck with the smallness of the takings,
and having consulted with the Superintendent of Police
at the Cottage-road station, it was determined that some
money should be marked and paid to prisoner. This was
acordingly done, and on Saturday a small sum was missed
from the till, and prisoner was asked to produce the money
he had in his pocket, when a marked shilling and some
halfpence were found after some concealment, The pri-
soner's portmanteau was then searched, when some more
marked money was found, and several bottles of scent,
which prosecutor had very little doubt belonged to him.
Prisoner did not say anything in answer to the charge,
and was conveyed to the station. Prisoner was remanded
for a week.

Prosecutor requested a warrant to search the apartments
of a young woman with whom the prisoner is intimate.
She had been to the house, and about that time a florin and
other property was missed.
Mr. Arnold—There is nothing to show that she had the
property, and I cannot, under such circumstances, grant a
search warrant.

THE VALUE OF A SPARROW.—A large crowd of
persons attended at the sale-rooms in Adelaide,
attracted chiefly by the announcement that the birds, &c.,
brought out in the Orient would be submitted to public
competition. They fetched in many instances very high
prices. An English sparrow without his sage fetched lls.,
rather a high price for a sparrow, although as it is the sole
survivor of 100 shipped by the importer, it will be rather
dear to the buyer than profitable to the seller. A couple of
blackbirds sold for 688., a goldfinch canary for 355,, and
other birds fetched high prices. Swan River parrots sold
for 30s. each. The auctioneer dwelt facetiously upon the
qualities of sparrows, considered as the farmer's friends,
although, as the sparrow he sold was warranted to be the
" only one in the colony," it is difficult to see how the race
of sparrows is thereby introduced. A similar difficulty
presents itself with regard to the blackbirds, which the for-
tunate purchaser was assured were both cocks l— flustra•
lien and New Zealand Gazette.

The Alleged Poisoning Case at Hull.

O❑ Thursday Augustus Wells, assistant to Mr.
Day, surgeon, and George Z. Wright, landlord of
the Tynemouth Castle public-house, o.borne-street,
charged with attempting to get poison administered
to an illegitimate child, were again brought up at
the Hull Police-court before Mr. Travis, the sti-
pendiary magistrate.

Mr. Gresham appeared for Wells, and Mr. Stead
for Wright.

The witness Woodmancy was recalled, and, in
answer to Mr. Gresham, said—l know a ruilyman
named Robert Norris. I remember meeting Wells
in Wellington street some time ago, and asking him
for the 23s Alice owed me. I never asked him to
give his watch up. I never spoke to Norris about
having seen Wells in Wellington-street on that occa-
sion. I know a person of the name of David Dalton,
a rullyman, and if he says that I told him I had
asked Wells for £3 he is not speaking the truth.
If Norris says I told him I had asked Wells for his
watch he is not speaking the truth. The box in
which the two bottles were kept I bought in Len-
don, when I was up in London at the Exhibition
year. It cost 9d. or Is., in the Lowther-arcade.
(The box was produced in court and identified by
the witness.)
Mrs. Woolmancy was also recalled, and in answer
to Mr. Gresham, said—l remember the police-con-
stable coming to my house last Friday to fetch the
box in which the bottles had been. (The box was
again produced and identified.) I told him I would
get the key and empty it of its contents if he would
wait. He replied that be was in a hurry, and I was to
bring it down to the Mansion-house. The box had
some money and papers in it. We have had the
box about seven years. (Sensation in court.) [The
stipendiary said if the persons in the gallery did
not restrain their feelings he would have the court
cleared, as it should not be turned into a bear gar-
den.] Witness continued—My husband bought it
for our little girl, who is dead. It was a money-
box, and when the child was living she used to put
her money into it. After the child died the box
was put away, and none of the other children were
allowed to have it. About three months ago my
husband wanted a box to put his papers in, so I
brought out this one, and it has been in use since.
We have no other box in our house like this one.
I was not at the Exhibition last year, but my hus-
band was. He brought home a doll a-piece for the
children and a cruet-stand for me. He brought
neither myself nor the children a box like the one
produced. Of this lam quite positive. My hus-
band never told me that he had purchased a box at
the Lowther-arcade. I never heard him say one
word about having brought anything of the kind.
He could not have brought the box home without
my knowledge.
The Stipendiary—l shall give no further opinion
about the case, but discharge both prisoners for tile
present. (Applause.)
The prisoners were then set at liberty.
