METROPOLITAN CATTLE.

The supply of beasts on effer in to-day's market being'
rather extensive, the demand for all breeds was very inac-
tive at a decline in the qu3tations, compared with Monday,
of 2d per Sibs. The highest figure was 5s per 81bs. Sheep
—the show of which was seasonably good—moved oh
lowly. In prices, however, no change took place. The
be-t Downs realised 5s 2d per 81bs. We have to report a
dull inquiry for lambs on rather easier terms. The top
figure was 6s 6d per Sibs. There was a large number of
calves on sale, and the veal trade was heavy at a decline of
from 4d to 6d per 81bs, Pigs and mulch cows were very
dull at barely late rates.

XONFAY MARKET

AND
COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

The discount market remains in a steady position,
and any material change is scarcely looked for until
the payment of the July dividends.
The last week's railray receipts ascertained up
to this day are in round figures as under :-
1863. 1862.
Great Western £63,518 £66,255
North-Western
South-Western
Brighton
Midland
South-Eastern
Great Eastern
Lancashire and Yorkshire 35,210 33,402
North Eastern 43,038 40,537
Bristol and Exeter
Manchester, Sh(,ffield, and Lincoln 14,663 13,202
Edinburgh and Glasgow
Glasgow and South-Wtstern
Great Luxembourg 4,720 4,611
These returns again show a falling off in several of
the principal lines. On the Great 'Western there is a
decrease of £2,737, on the South Western of £3,968,
on the Brighton of £1,468, on the South-Eastern
of £1,685, and on the Bristol and Exeter of £433.
The North-Western, however, exhibits an increase
of £606, the Midland of £4,697, the Lancashire and
Yorkshire of £l,BOB, the North-Eastern of £2,501,
and the Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincoln of
£1,414.

One of the latest undertakings introduced to the
notice of the investing classes is the Torquay Hotel
Company, with a proposed capital of £70,000, in
shares of £lO each, of which, however, it is pro-
bable that not more than two-thirds will be re-
quired for the immediate objects in view. It is
brought forward under favourable auspices, and as
the locality is one of great attraction, and additional
accommodation is requisite, there is every reason to
believe tnat the expectations of the promoters will
be fully realised. The prospectus refers to the
large increase of visitors, both in winter and sum-
Mer, and the especial advantages which such an
establishment would at once secure. A very eligible
site, upon which the residence of Colonel Meyrick
now stands, has been obtained, commanding sea
views, and provisional arrangements have been
made with the proprietor of the Royal Hotel,
whereby the company will be placed in immediate
possession of a valuable connection and lucrative
business on favourable terms.
Another parcel of gold, amounting to £54,000,
'Was taken into the Bank yester ay.

The dollars by the last Mexican packet have been
sold at ss. 21d. per oz., showing a fall of sd. from
the price obtained for the former supply.

Two O'CLOCK.

At Paris this morning, according to Mr. Reuter's
telegram, the French 3 per Cent. Rentes were
heavy at 68f. 50c.
At a meeting to-day of the Canada Company, the
directors proposed a division of £1 per share, free
of income tax, payable on the 10th July. Mr.
Biddulph occupied the chair, and on introducing
to the notice of the meeting the report issued by
the directors, stated that large arrears were due to
the company for rent, and that proceedings were
being taken by the commissioners in the colony to
recover the claims. Advices had been received by
the last mail, which stated that after the harvest the
prospects of which were very encouraging
the agents anticipated the payment of the greater
portion of the debt. No discoveries of oil springs
had yet been made upon the company's lands, and
Should such discovery take place the company would
be entitled to claim additional rental. The com-
missioners were preparing and collating materials
for the issue of a new pamphlet, which, as soon as
ready, will be published. The directors had secured
offices on the site lately occupied by the old East
India Company at a rental which would effect a
Saving of £250 a year. A vote of thanks to the
chairman and directors concluded the proeeedinge.
Increased depression has been experienced to-day
In the market for the English Funds, although the
dealings have been very limited. Sales, however,
have been negotiated, and soon after the com-
tnencement of business a decline of 3 per cent.
ensued, Consols being 91% 3 for transfer, and 913
92 for the 9th proximo. The New Threes are 911 a ;
and Reduced Annuities, 913 87 Exchequer Bills
appear flat at 45. dis. to par; Bank Stock is 2333
234 ; and business has taken place in India 5 per
Cents. at 108/ ; and Enfaced 5 per Cents. at 106%.
Increased symptoms of depression have prevailed
in the Foreign Market, and a further decieed de-
cline has taken place in prices, consequent upon
the unsettled condition of political affairs Turkish
6 per Cents., 1862, are 701 713 ; ditto Consolides,
49a. 3 ; Mexican, 363 %; Greek, 353 a ; ditto, Con-

l'ortuguese, 493 a ; the New Venezuelan Loan, 13
to d dis. ; and the Confederate Loan, 2 to 1 dis.
The operations in the Railway Share Market
have been of a very restricted character, and prices
generally have exhibited a downward. movement.
Caledonian, Great Eastern, North Western, and
Midland, have each declined about ss. ; and North
Eastern (Berwick), 10s.
The Foreign and Colonial lines have also been at
Slightly reduced quotations. Bahia and San Fran-
cisco realise 203 ; East Indian have declined to 110 ;
Great Indian Peninsula, to 110.

London and Westminster realise 803 ; Alliance of
London and Liverpool, 343 ; Crystal Palace Stock,

LAW INTELLIGENCE—This Day,

COURT OF PROBATE.
(Before the Judge Ordinary.)
RIDGWAY V. ABINGDON AND OTHERS-WEDGWOOD

INTETWENING.

The hearing of evidence in this case (the opening of
which will be found in another part of .77ae Sun) was re-
sumed this morning.

Mr. P. Smith was called to give evidence as to the capa-
oity of deceased to make a will, and was of opinion that he
was quite capable of doing so when the instrument was
executed.

Mrs. Ledbetter, the nurse who attended to the testator up
to the time of his death, said that Mr. Mayer always ap-
peared to be quite collected. He took food up to the hour
of his death. She gave him milk and water, with bread
crumbs in it. She had seen the servants give him a spoon-
ful of sherry in some water. The doctor who attended him
always mixed the wine before he left him for the night.
The night More his death Mr. Abingdon was with Mr.
Mayer, who was then suffering great pain, and young Mr.
Abingdon went to the druggist to get something from him
to allay it. The pain was very uncertain iu its attacks.
Mr. Mayer did not appear near his death on the day he died.
He was very ill, but death was not expected that day. About
two months before his death he was very much concerned
about a nest of throttles (thrushes) which he had in his
garden. He regretted the loss very much, and Mr. Wedg-
wood brought two old ones, which were put in a cage and
placed near the place the nest used to be. She did not
notice more particularly that the day before his death a
large number of letters were lying on his table unopened.
Ann Faire said she lived in Mr. Mayer's service for 11
years before his death. She recollected the last witness
coming to wait on him. She saw Dir. Mayer frequently
before his death, and he always appeared quite right in his
mind.

By Mr. Chambers—She gave him his food. He got
worse and worse, and died on a Thursday. He was very
bad a week before his death. She did not recollect seeing
old Mr. Abingdon there at that time. lie never went into
Mr. Mayer's bedroom without he was invited up. Mr.
Abingdon called frequently, and appeared very
anxious about Mr. Mayer a week before his
death. Mr. .A stle called once and saw Mr. Mayer.
On the Tuesday before his death, Mr. Mayer sent for Mr.
Abingdon, junior, and he slept in the house until he (Mr.
Mayer) died. She had never told any persons when they
called that Mr. Mayer was not in a state to do business.
He was able to do writing business. She had seen him
write before 11,8 death, but he was not propped up with pil-
lows. He was not able to attend to business a week before
his death. She did not know that during that time
he was attending to business, because she left the room,
By the Judge - Weakness of body prevented him doing
any business. He perfectly understood everything that
passed,
Wm. Chester, gardener to the testator, said he always
went of a morning to his master's bedroom to receive orders.
Up to the day before his death Mr. Mayer gave him direc-

tions the same as usual, and always appeared to understand
everything he said.
The case is not expected to conclude to. day.

' SHERIFFS' COURT.
(Before Mr. Kerr.)

A CITY MERCHANT SUED By A RAILWAY COMPANY FOR
2S. 101 .-SOUTII-EASTERN RAILWAY COMPANY Y.

FLA TEAU.

This was an action to recover 2s. 10d. under circum-
stances of considerable importance to persons receiving re-
turned goods. It appeared that defendant sent a parcel of
boots to a customer in Maidstone named Marchmont, and
Marchmont, atter examining them, refused to accept them
from the plaintiff, but returned them to defendant, The
goods were taken to defendant's warehouse, and he, after
the delivery, refused to pay more than Is. 6d., the carriage
from Maidstone.

Defendant pointed out to-day that the sum in dispute
was but ls, 4d., but he did not see why he should be called
upon to pay this, because it was not his debt. Mr. March-
moat had opened the package, or he could not have told
whether the goods were equal to the sample. If Mr.
Marchmont chose to open the package, it was clear he was
liable to pay the carriage.
A person who appeared for the company said that the
consignee at hl aidstone refused to receive the goods, and
di,ected the company to take them back to defendant. The
company's carrier told defendant that there was carriage to
pay, and defendant said he would pay it.
His Honour—The company have a lien upon the goods,
and they are entitled to hold them until they are satisfied.
You (defendant) have received the parcel with all its liabi-
lities, and if you have any claim for the ls. 4d. it is rather
against your customer at Maidstone than plaintiffs, who are
entitled to a verdict, with costs.
Verdict for plaintiffs.

THAIS,IES.

PLATE ROBBERY BY AN AREA. SNEAK.—Thora3s
Tyer, a well-known thief, was brought before Mr. Wool-
rych, charged with stealing four tablespoons, three dessert-
spoons, three forks, a pair of sugar-tongs, two saltspoons,
and six teaspoons, all silver, and valued at about £lO, from
the residence of Mr. Kiddill, a builder, of No. 11, Adding-
ton-road, Bow-road.
On Monday last, between the hours of 11 and half-past
one o'clock the kitchen of Mr. Kiddill's residence was
entered in the temporary absence of the servant, and the
plate above mentioned stolen from a cupboard. The
kitchen window had been incautiously left open, and the
thief had no difficulty in obtaining an entrance. Suspicion
fell upon the prisoner who is a well known "area
sneak," and another man of the same character, and whose
pursuits are similar. The prisoner and his confederate were
seen near Mr. Kiddill's house before the robbery, and the
prisoner was seen coming away from the direction of the
Addington-road. He was taken into custody yesterday
afternoon in a place called Gloucester-gardens, Bethnal-
green. Police Sergeant Pullen, No. 10 K, a detective
officer, said the prisoner was a well known thief, and had
been already convicted.
Two witnesses identified the prisoners; and it was stated
that if be was remanded other evidence would be forth-

coming.
Inspector Kerressoy, mho heard of the robbery a few
minutes after it was committed, had sent police-constables
in all directions in search of the thieves and the property,
but their efforts were unsuccessful, and it is feared the plate
has been melted down.

From the result of the race, it will be seen that
the decision of the judge and the prophecy of " A
Fresh Man," in The Sun, very nearly agree ; as our
correspondent actually named the first three horses
in the race, a circumstance never known to have
been done in a large handicap by any prophet
before. An instance nearly similar occurred
with a celebrated sporting nobleman (was it not
Lord George Bentiock ?) who, for a very large bet,
undertook to place every horse as they passed the
post. When the race was over it was found that
the noble lord had won, as the horse he named came
in first, the rest of the field being distanced.
The following appeared in The Sun of Monday,
June 15:--

Royal Military Academy, Woolwich.

SECOND EDITION.

The half-yearly award of commissions and dis-
tribution of prizes to the gentlemen cadets of the
Royal Military Academy, by the Duke of Cambridge
(in accordance with previous examination by the
Council of Military Education), took place yester-
day afternoon in the Gymnasium at the rear of the
institution, in the presence of a large number of
military officers, professors, and masters of the
academy, and relatives and friends of the students.
The several classes of cadets assembled on the lawn
fronting the building at half-past two o'clock, with
the Royal Artillery band, and carried out a series
of manual and platoon exercises in a highly credi-
table manner. At half-past three a salute from a
battery of artiliery announced the arrival of his royal
highness and his staff. The line of gentlemen cadets
having been inspected front and rear, they marched
past at slow and quick time, and subsequently
carried out various evolutions. The cadets then
marched in companies to the Gymnasium, and
formed into square near the table whics, contained
the numerous prizes for presentation. The pro-
ceedings c:immenced by Major General Hamilton
reading the report of the Council of Military Edu-
cation, which stated that of 44 cadets of the first
class, 42 had been found qualified for commissions
in the Royal Artillery and Royal Engineers. • 12
commissions in the Royal Engineers had been an-
nounced ; the 12 senior cadets en the list having
elected or that service, the remainder were recom-
mended for commissions in the Royal Artillery.
In the first class, the examiner in fortifications,
field works, and bridges, considered the result
very satisfactory, every one of the cadets having
obtained a higher credit than half the total num-
ber in the minimum course, and the nature
of the answers showed that the subjects had
been carefully studied. The examiner in
chemistry reported the results to be on the
whole satisfactory. In the second class, the progress
in German and other subjects of study had been
satisfactory. In the third class, the progress hed
also been very satisfactory. In Hindostani, the
grammatical questions had been fairly answered,
and considerable progress had been made in draw-
ing. Col. Yorke, R.E., then read a report from
Major. Gen. Sandham, Lieutenant-Governor of the
Acadmy, which stated that the whole of the fiat
class, who had just- been under examination, were
fully qualified for commissions, as regards conduct,
discipline, and proficiency in military exercises.
The number of marks gained by each cadet for for-
tifications, mathematics, and other branches of study,
as certified by the Council of Military Elucation,
were then read over, and the following successful
candidates were called to the front by his royal
highness, and informed that they would receive
commissions, as under (the numbers given being

and staff subsequently witnessed a series of gym-
nastic exercises by the gentlemen cadets, and left
the institution at half-past five o'clock, the cadets
firing a royal salute from the guns of their miniature
battery. His royal highness and staff then pro-
ceeded to the messroom of the Royal Artillery Bar-
racks, where a banquet was provided, covers being
laid for 100 guests.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT

-
HOUSE OF COMMONS--Last Evening.

The SPEAKER took the chair at a quarter past twelve.
UNIFORMITY ACT AMENDMENT BILL.

Sir W. HEATHCOTE presented a petition from the
convocation of the University of Oxford against this bill.
The hon. baronet also petitioned to the same effect from
undergraduates of the University.
Mr. WALPOLE presented several similar petitions from
the University of Cambridge.
Mr. BOUVERIE said that in reference to the state of
the bill and of the session, he had considered whether there
was a fair prospect of carrying it this session. He had
arrived at the unwilling conclusion that he
should have no chance of carrying it this
session, and he should therefore ask the house to
withdraw the order this year, in order that he might re-
introduce it next session. it was not a bill to compel uni-
versity authorities to open their doors to nonconformists,
but to remove restrictions which were imposed 200 years
ago, and which had entirely failed The object of those
who had promoted the bill had been greatly misunderstood.
They had no hostility to the Church or the universities, on
the contrary, the object was to improve the universities and
the educational system which prevailed there. He
attached no weight to the petition from the
University of Oxford, for there hal been no
measure of public utility in connection with religion or
education introduced which had not been opposes by the
University of Oxford. The petitioners from the University
seemed to be based upon an error of facts. Ho begged to
move that the order be discharged.
Sir W. HEATHCOTE said that 2,000 non-resident mem-
bers of the University had expressed their approval of the
course Convocation had taken in opposing the Lill. The
young men, also, of the University, from whom the right
hon. gentleman looked for liberality, had also declared their
opinion that the bill was a dangerous one.
Mr. IVALPOLE defended the petitioners from the Uni-
versity of Cambridge. He himself had presented a petition
from every head of a college but two, from all the tutors,
and from a large body of undergraduates. He hoped the
right hon. gentleman would not next session bring in this
or an amended bill, unless he proved some overwhelming
necessity for it, which he felt sure would not be the case.
Mr. HADFIELD spoke strongly in favour of such a

" Although the Northumberland Plate stands for deci-
sion next week, no demonstration of any importance has
yet been made in favour of any of the horses engaged, as
much as 10 to 1 being still offered on the &ld. At present
I can see nothing with more formidable pretensions to carry
off this rich stake than the three top weights, namely,
Carbineer, Caller Ou, and Adventurer, giving the prefer-
ence to the former, as I cannot forget his gallant struggle
with Tim Whiffler in the Gold Vase at Ascot last year,
where Tim' only beat Carbineer by a short head."

measure.
Mr. NEWDEGATE deprecated the bill, and considered
that it would endanger the Church of England, which
for centuries had been the great bulwark of Christianity.
Mr. GOSCHEN thought that a full discussion of the
question would have assisted that strong and influential
party which existed in both Universities, and which was
desirous of reform. He could not think it could be
said that the right hon. gentleman was disturbing the re-
pose of the university by his bill, for that repose had been
disturbed, and it was not by resisting measures like this
that repose could be artificially mair twined. He would not
support such a bill if he thought it would interfere with
the Church, but he considered that the Church of England
was in more danger from those who fainted at every attack
than from those who boldly faced danger. He thought the
Church would be greatly strengthened if she could fight
with a freer hand.

And again in his final notes on Tuesday last,
after discarding the claims of Polynesia and Stanton,
the two first favourites, he concluded his letter as

_The prisoner denied all participation in the robbery, and
said he was not in or near the Addington-road on Monday
last.

Mr. Woolrych remanded the prisoner for a week.

SHIPPING—This Day.

After some remarks from Mr. Monsell, Mr. R. Mills,
Mr. Henley, and Mr. Dunlop, the order was discharged,
and the bill was withdrawn.

The Opinion _Nationale publishes a letter from a
correspondent referring to a singular historical
error in the following inscriptions placed, the writer de-
clares, at the four corners of Pont do la Tournelle • Pont
construt sous le regno do Louis XIII., 1656." In 1656
Louis XIV. was already in the 14th year of his reign.
A letter from Bologna of the 20th states that on
the previous day the tribunal of the arrondissement
condemned a shoemaker named Brasini, gerant of the
Journal the Eco, to 20 days' imprisonment and 200 fr. fine
for a libellous attack on the steward of the property which
Emperor Napoleon possesses in the Marches.

A
number of the Arab soldiers now quartered on
the Quai d'Orsay were observed two days ago
washing their linen in the courtyard of the barracks. A
large flat Eton° was placed on the ground, on which the
linen,
well rubbed with soap was laid. Water was then
thrown gently on it, au operation which was repeated from
time to time, while another Arab, with his lega and feet
naked, kept jumping and stamping on it, his feet thus per-
forming the part of a wooden beater. This is the way in
which the Arabs always wash their linen and burnous,
never touching them with their hands, a plan which, they
say, is better and more expeditious than any other.

Mr. STANILAND moved the second reading of this
bill. He explained that the taking of corn by servants to
feed their masters' horses' was a felony. The punishment
was so disproportionate to the offence that he proposed in
his:bill to reduce the crime from felony to one cognisable
by the magistrates. He proposed that the penalty for such
an offence should be imprisonment of not more than three
months, or a penalty not exceeding £5.

Sir G. GREY said the bill would require some altera-
ion in committee.
The bill was then read a second time.
ADMIRALTY BOARD.

Sir H. WILLOUGHBY resumed the adjourned debate
on the question proposed (June 9)—" That a select com-
mittee be appointed to inquire into the constitution of the
Board of Admiralty, and into the different departments
under the control of that Board." He expressed hie opinion
that at the present period of the session it would be uselesm
to appoint a select committee on so large a subject as Aa-
tairatty reform. His own opinion was, that if the Admiralty
itself would take up the matter, and make those changes
which were necessary in the department, no committee.
would be necessary. The great point to be gained was to
make the Admiralty itself responsible to Parliament, so that
there might be some efficient control over the expenditure
on account of the navy.

Sir J. HAY agreed with the last speaker in thinking
that a committee at this period of the session could not ar-
rive at any useful result. At the same time, it the motion
were proposed he should vote for it, as he was of opinion
that something should be done to secure, if possible, unity
of action and individual responsibility in the department of
the Admiralty.
Mr. C. P. BERKELEY opposed the motion, on the
ground that inquiry had already been instituted.
Mr. STANSFELD said he had not been long enough at
the Admiralty to express that decided opinion which greater
experience would have enabled him to do. He con-
tended, however, that the First Lord of the Admi-
ralty was responsible for the conduct of the
heads of all the departments which were in con-
stant communication with him, and he did not believe
any First Lord of the Admiralty would even attempt in
Parliament to disclaim that responsibility. He did not, he
said, wish to rest the defence of the Admiralty on broad
generalities, but he pointed out that a great deal had been.
done to carry out the recommendations of the select com-
mittee and to comply with the requirements of the house.
The finance and building departments had been placed on
an improved and satisfactory footing, and other reforms
were in progress. The nature of the latter the hon. gentle-
man explained in detail.
Sir J. PAKINGTON thought the real question at issue
was not what individual reforms had been introduced into
separate departments, but whether the present constitution
of the Board of Admiralty was satisfactory and such as the
house could approve of. With regard to the motion under
discussion, it would be delusive at the present period of the
session to vote for an inquiry which could not be conducted
with any public advantage.
Sir F. BARING said an inquiry had taken place, and
he recommended the withdrawal of the motion. It might
be revived next session.
Sir S. M. PETO also urged postponement.

THE POLISH INSURRECTION.

CRACOW, JUNE 24.
The National Government has published a warn-
ing to the citizens of Warsaw, that the Russian
Government is desirous of exciting a rising in that
capital.

n~

Eight hundred and sixty nine gentlemen are
confined as prisoners in the fortress of Dunaburg.
Six hundred persons, partly public functionaries
and partly gentlemen, are shut up in the barracks
at Mohilus, while ladies and aged men have been
brought bound into the city.
M. Krzywichi, the Polieh Minister of Public
Worship, has sent in his resignation.

The Court of Assizes of the Seine yesterday tried
a young man named Philipinetti, a journeyman
fumist, on several charges of robbery committed by entering
attic windows from the roof. On the 51 h March last the
prisoner was seen on the roof of a house in the rue de la
Douane, and recognised by the concierge as a man formerly
in the employ of M. Crispi, a fumist, who had .tischarged
him for misconduct. He escaped along the roofs of the
adjoining houses, but was soon after arrested. On search-
ing his lodgings a number of pawn-tickets were seized re-
lating to a gold watch and other articles stolen from five
different house 3, always by the same means. The owners
were soon found, and all of them identified their property-.
The evidence against the prisoner being conclusive, the
jury brought in a verdict of guilty, and the Court sentenced
him to four years' imprisor'•.*uent,
