N. C. Hamilton. Bart., K.C.8., is Chairman) are now receiv-
ing.; SUBSCRIPTIONS, and they may also be paid to the
account of the Tercentenary Committee, at the Stourbridge

home, the town he loved, and where he lived and died.

DEFACING A SOVEREIGN.—ILLEGAL CONDUCT OF A
LINENDRAFEL—A respectable young woman named Hag-
gerty, dwelling with her husband at 8, Dorset-street, Rat -
cliff, applied to Mr. Partridge for a summons against a
linendraper, named Read, carrying on business in the
Commercial-road East, a short distance from the George.
The applicant stated that she went to Read's linendrapery
establishment and made a purchase yesterday morning, and
tendered in payment a good sovereign, which was accepted
by the shopman who waited upon her, and he gave her sil-
ver for it, deducting, of course, the value of the articles
purchased. In the afternoon she went to the shop again
with her sister-in-law, to buy mourning, and one of
Read's shopman returned her the sovereign paid in the
morning, and said it was a bad one. The shopman also
demanded 20s, for it, which she gave him.

Mr. Partridge---Why did you do that if it was a good
sovereign ?

Mrs. Haggerty said she was very much frightened when
she was informed the sovereign was a counterfeit one. She
had since taken the sovereign to a jeweller, who pronounced
it to be a good one. Mr. Prevost, the laadlord of the Lamb
public-house, in Dorset-street, ltatcliff, also pronounced
the sovereign to be a good one. She could not pass the
sovereign to any one, because it was cut and defaced. She
then handed the mutilated sovereign to the magistrate, who
examined it, and said it was undoubtedly a good one, He
asked who had cut and bent the sovereign.
Mrs. Haggerty It was done at the linen draper's shop.
It was perfect when I delivered it to the shopman yesterday
morning. He returned it to me cut and bent as you see it,
your worship.

Mr. Partridge said it was illegal to deface the current
coin of the realm. He would advise the applicant to bring
an action against the linen draper in the County Court. It
was not a case in which he could interfere.

The father-in-law of the applicant was killed last week
on board ship in the St. Katherine's dock, and she went to
Read'S shop with her sister-in-law to buy mournings.

MARKETS—This Day.

MARK-LANE.

The supply of home-grown wheat on sale here, to-day,
was moderate. The trade for all qualities ruled inactive,
at Monday's decline in the currency of 2s. per quarter.
There was a full average show of foreign wheat on the
stands. Both American and Continental descriptions sold
heavily, and late rates were with difficulty supported.
Floating cargoes of grain were in limited request, at about
previous quotations.

The supply of barley was by no means extensive, yet the
trade ruled inactive at drooping prices.

There was rather less doing in malt at about previous
rates.

The trade for oats was in a sluggish state at Monday's
decline in prices. The show of samples was large.
In the value of beans and peas no material change took
place. The demand for them, however, was by no means
active.

Flour was in slow request at about Monday's currency,

MARKETS—This Day.

MARK-LANE.

The supply of home-grown wheat on sale here, to-day,
was moderate. The trade for all qualities ruled inactive,
at Monday's decline in the currency of 2s. per quarter.

There was a full average show of foreign wheat on the
stands. Both American and Continental descriptions sold
heavily, and late rates were with difficulty supported.
Floating cargoes of grain were in limited request, at about
previous quotations.

The supply of barley was by no means extensive, yet the
trade ruled inactive at drooping prices.
There was rather less doing in malt at about previous
rates.

The trade for oats was in a sleggish state at Monday's
decline in prices. The show of samples was large.

In the value of beans and peas no material change took
place. The demand for them, however, was by no means
active.

Flour was in slow request at about Monday's currency,

THE ARMY.

Major-Gen. Sir R. Dacres, accompanied by Major
Millward, Major. O'Malley, Capt. Nangle, and De-
puty Quartermaster-Gen. and Capt. Hamble, has
just made his half-yearly inspection of the troops at
Warley barracks, near Brentwood. The troops went
through a number of evolutions under the command
of Cal. Hay and Col. Ratcliffe, and at the close
Major-Gen. nacres declared that their marching
and general appearance reflected the highest credit
not only on themselves, but also on their officers.
New quarters for married men, a sergeants' mess-
room, and a gymnasium have recently been come
pleted at this depot.

The rifle practice range formed on the glacis of
the fortifications commanding the entrance to the
river Medway and Chatham harbour, which was
granted by the War Department for the use of the
Royal Artillery and the Rifle and Artillery Volun-
teers, and since constantly used by those bodies, is
situate in a position attended with such danger to
the public that, unless prompt measures are adopted
by the authorities, it is scarcely possible for
accidents to be averted. The maximum distance
afforded by the range is only 300 yards, and firing
parties are compelled to take up a position only
half-a-dozen yards from the high road, over which
considerable traffic passes. In itself this would be
a sufficient reason for the removal of the range, but
300 yards are insafficieut for even the preliminary
stages cf instruction Nith rifled artillery carbinee.
For the advanced course of musketry instruction the
range is useless, and it carmot be used by Toluntu2rs
with the long Enfield rift:). In the event of a bul-
let not striking the target owing to undue elcvatioa

THAMES.

PLUNDERING A CARGO —Johu Delany and Joseph
Craigie, labourers, were brought before Mr. Woolrych,
charged, the former with stealing half a gallon of beer, the
other with stealing a bottle of gin on board the ship Blen-
heim in the East India Dock. The Blenheim is about to
take out troops to Bombay, and has been loading provisions
and stores for them in the East India Dock for several days.
Upwards of 150 men have been employed in stowing away
cargo, including large quantities of bottled ale and beer,
spirits, and wine, and also barrels of beer and stout for the
use of the officers and men on the voyage. The plunder
on board has been very large, and would have been
much greater if a sharp look-out had not been
kept. Yesterday afternoon Mr. Robert Espies. the
manager and ship's husband, met the prisoner Delany on
deck with a bucket containing a half gallon of beer which
he had taken from a cask in the temporary absence of the
prosecutor. The cask had been pierced and a portion of the
contents abstracted. The prisoner, on being asked to ex-
plain his conduct, said he found the beer in the cask, and
was carrying it away. He now coolly said to the magis-
trate " that he took a little beer and meant to conceal it and
drink it when he was dry ; sure, that was all he meant to do
wid it." The other prisoner Craigie, a youth, was detected
leaving the ship with a bottle of Old Tom in his possession.
There were 200 cases of gin on board, containing one, two,
or three dozen bottles in each case. The prisoner said he
got the bottle of gin between decks of the Blenheim, and
asked the magistrate to be lenient with him, for he sup-
ported an aged mother.
Mr. Woolrych said he had disposed of many similar
cases since he had been a magistrate, and it had too fre-
quently happened that labourers employed among wine,
spirits, and beer, gave way to plunder. He sentenced
Delany to 21 days' imprisonment and hard labour, and
Craigie to eight days' imprisonment and hard labour, for
unlawful possession of the beer and gin.

Royal Highness, attended by the Hon. Mrs. Bruce, has
driven up to Kensington-gardens in a plaice brougham, and
taken a seat on a bench commanding a view of the ride.
The incognita of the Princess was hardly ever discovered,
and by the few who did recognise her it was always re-
spected. Hence these pleasant morning lounges have con-
tinued uninterruptedly.

TRIAL TRIP OF THE MESSAGGIERE.—A trial trip
of a new despatch steamer or aviso lately built by
Messrs. Money Wigram and Penn, for the Italian Go-
vernment, took place on Monday. The new boat, which is
constructed on similar lines to one built by the same firm
for the King of Italy a few months since, is 250 ft, in length
between perpendiculars, 30ft. in breadth, and carries
engines of 350 horse power. They are of oft. stroke, and
their cylinders are 71in. in diameter. The paddle wheels
are over 32ft. in diameter and are fitted with feathering
floats. As in most boats constructed by Messrs. Penn,
the engines are oscillating, and the boilers are on the tu-
bular system. The trip extended from 'Tilbury Fort to a
little beyond Sea Reach, and the speed attained in running
the measured mile was at the rate of 17 knots, or 19.6 miles
an hour, As the Messaggiere starts for Genoa this morning,
she had already taken on board over 180 tons of coal, be-
sides nearly the same amount of stores and spare gear,
which caused her to draw almost a foot more water than
she would have done under ordinary circumstances. With
a normal load there appears to be little doubt of her run-
ning at a speed of 174 or even 17f knots an hour—a swift-
ness hardly ever yet gained by the fastest of the many fast
boats launched from Messrs. Penn's yard. The company
on board included Lord R. Grosvenor, the Marquis
D'Azeglio, the Chevalier D'Albidi, Captain Achmet Bey,
M. Souschoff, Captain Armitage, Messrs. Appold, Nasmyth,
Crampton, Glaistier, and many other gentlemen known in
the engineering and scientific world• The Messaggiere re-
turned to Blackwell pier about 6 o'clock, and Mr. Penn's
private yacht Engineer carried her passengers back to town.

MARKETS--This Day.

MARK LANE.
Fresh up at this morning's market, the receipts of Eng-
lish wheat were on a limited scale. Both red and white
qualities met a steady sale, and Monday's currency was
well supported.
With foreign wheat, the market was extensively sup-
plied. The demand was by no means active for any de-
scription, yet no change took place in prices, compared with
Monday.
Floating cargoes of grain were in slow request, on former
terms.
The supply of barley was very moderate. The trade,
however, ruled heavy, but without leading to any probable
change in prices. Malt was dull at late rates.
The supply of oats on offer was moderately large. All
descriptions met a slow sale, at about previous rates.
Beans and peas were dull, and prices were barely sup-
ported. The supplies on offer were very moderato.
Flour changed hands slowly, at last Monday's currency.
