COPPER.

The number of copper mines worked in these
islands in 1862 was 230; of these 201 in Cornwall
and Devonshire. For several years there has been
a steady decline in the rate at which copper has
been produced from our mines; the relative pro-
duce of the last three years has been as follows :
Ore. Fine Copper.
Tons. Tons.
1860 ~, 236,696 .. 15,968
1861 .. .. 231,487 .. 15,331
1x62 224,171 14,843
Our imports, which were 74,163 tons of ore and
20,317 tons of regulus in 1861, increased to 84,054
tons of ore and 35,388 tons of regulus in 1862.

TIN.
The returns of dues paid to the Stan nary Court,
which are made up to Sept. 29 in each year, give
the production of the tin mines of Cornwall and
Devonshire as 11,841 tons of ore, producing of white
or metallic tin 7,578 tons, valued at £879,048. The
keeper of mining records gives the production of
the whole year 1862 as 14,127 tons of tin ore, pro-
ducing 8,476 tons of metallic tin, valued at X 983,216.
This is the largest quantity of this metalliferous
ore which has ever been produced in any one year,
the probability being that this will be exceeded by
the yield of the Cornish tin mines in the present year.
For certainly more than 2,000 years tin has been
obtained from Cornwall and Devonshire, and yet we
find the granite and clay slate rocks of these counties
yielding a larger quantity than ever to the industry
of man, and there does not appear any reason for
supposing that we are exhausting any of the stan-
niferous districts. A fear has been expressed by
many that the copper mines of Cornwall are nearly
worked out. That there has been a falling off in the
quantities of ore mined for some years past is cer-
tain ; but if ever mining is permitted to be carried
on again with honesty and zeal, so that the full
amount of the subscribed capital shall be expended
in subterranean explorations, judiciously directed
by experienced miners, we believe it will be found
that ample stores of copper are yet to be discovered.

THE POLISH INSURRECTION.

A Warsaw letter, in the Czas of Cracow, says
" Another body of 300 political prisoners have
left this city for Siberia. Among them were
several women, and sowe of the me❑ were in
chains. Their departure was so sudden, that
their friends had not time to supply them with
the articles indispensable for their long journey.
Tnis is the fourth convoy that has left the city for
Siberia within a fortnight."

COALS.

The number of collieries at work has increased
from 2,397 in 1853 to 3,088 in 1562. In these col-
lieries there were employed in 1861 no less tha❑
235,590 colliers. The quantity of coals produced
and sold in 1861 amounted to 83,635,214 tons, this
being the largest quantity produced in any one
year. Owing to the interruptions which several of
our manufacturers experienced in 1862 the amount
of coals which passed into the market, or were con•
sumed at the place of production, fell to 81,638,338
tons. Very large stocks have been stored in Lanca-
shire and other districts ; the actual drain, there-
fore, upon our coal beds was probably as large as it
was in the previous year.
In 1861 it is stated in these returns that nearly
two millions and a half tons of coals were burnt or
wasted at the pits in Durham and Northumberland
alone. In the publication for 1862, Mr. Hunt says
" the amount of the coals burnt or wasted at pits
has been so differently represented, and appears
such an uncertain, although very large quantity,
that it is for the present omitted." Some attention
having been directed to the rate at which exhaus-
tion of our coal beds is going on, it becomes a really
important element to determine with all p)ssible
accuracy the extent to which this system of waste
prevails on the surface, and it is no less important
to determine the waste which takes place in the
mine. In Derbyshire about one-sixth of the quan-
tity of coal raised, which amounted last year to
4,534,800 tons, is lost in the colliery, and this is net
much in excess of the quantity of coals lost in the
workings of coal in other districts. In estimating,
therefore, the rate at which we are draining our
coal measures of their fossil fuel we cannot take less
than 90,000,000 tons as representing the annual rate
of exhaustion.

The exportation of coals in 1862 amounted to
7,671,670 tons, and was an increase of 443,032 tons
on the exportation of 1861.

IRON.

The quantity of iron ore raised in 1862 in these
islands amounted to 7,562,240 tons, and we im-
ported 36,270 tons. This was used to feed 531 blast
furnaces, which were distributed as follows:—In
England, 306 ; in Wales, 130 ; in Scotland, 135 ;
the quantity of pig iron smelted being 3,243,469
tons, which is an increase on the two previous years.
In 1860 we made 3,826,752 tons, and in 1861
3,712,390 tons. The value of the pig iron at this
place of production last year is estimated at
£9,858,672.
London, England, 1863-10-23

Frank Blair, a General and a member of Congress,
an accomplished and ambitious man, has been for
the last two or three weeks addressing from St.
Louis very deliberate attacks against Mr. Chase and
the President, ignoring their policy in general, and
inveighing especially against those obstacles raised
by the officers of the Customs against the naviga-
tion of the Mississippi to which I alluded in one of
my letters from St. Louis. More lately, Mr. Blair's
brother, the Postmaster-General, a member of the
Cabinet, has spoken out and written in the same
sense, and his long smothered hostility to Mr. Chase
and to the Ultra-Republican faction in the Cabinet
threatens to come to an open outbreak,

The Western merchants endeavour to explain the
recent rise in the price of gold—which is now at
1471—by the fact that Mr. Chase has effected large
purchases of it at the New York market, and wily
endeavour, by further purchases, to keep it up at
150, with a view to pravent its exportation to
Europe, and to compel the merchants to export pro-
duce instead.

GENTLE WOMAN.

With these combined advantages of example and educa-
tion, Milly Ryan was seldom mentioned except in terms of
dislike, if not suspicion. Stern, inflexible, and vindictive,
she soon acquired, even among a stubborn and vindictive
population, the name of possessing those qualities in an un-
usual degree. Her appearance was remarkably tall and com-
manding, her expression suspicious and watchful, and few
saw her for the first time without having their attention
sore or less arrested. Some might have been reminded, to
a certain extent, of Scott's Meg Merrilies, but would soon
have changed their opinion, for, instead of the wild dignity
and touches of noble feeling evinced by the latter, even in
physical expression, there was in this woman a total want
of anything so interesting or so redeeming. Her extraordi-
nary height and personal strength would soon have been
disccvered as the only real points of resemblance presented
to Scott's immortal character. Her features had been, in-
deed, rather handsome as a girl, but now, though not more
than fifty, she looked worn and much older, owing chiefly
to the indulgence of naturally strong and violent passions.
Her only daughter, Mattie, was, in every respect, a con-
trast to her mother. Weak, silly, and delicate, it would
have been difficult to see any one more exactly the reverse,
both in character and appearance.

Milly Ryan possesses a little independent tenement
on the demesne of Lord Kilsorrel. Although her-
self descended from the former possessors of the soil,
her feudal veneration for the actual lord of the land
is intense. So much so that (strange to say) Milly
Ryan regards with pride and reverence, rather than
with shame, her little grandson, Albert Lindsay, the
illegitimate son of the Earl of Kilsorrel. When later
on, the earl having left Kilsorrel, his tenants hear
of his marriage, and then of the birth of an heir to
the title and estates, the angry indignation of Milly
is without bounds, as is evidenced by the following
painful scene :

BRITISH POSSESSIONS.

M ARLBOROUGH•STREET.

THE OUTCASTS IN THE PARK.—Esther Parsons, de-
scribed as a laundress and of no home, was charged before
Mr. Knox with sleeping in the open air in Hyde Park.
George Fassnige, 604 A, deposed that while patrolling
the park about 11 the previous night, he saw the prisoner
asleep under a tree near the Royal Humane Society's
receiving house. He then took her into custody.
Mr. Knox asked the constable whether the prisoner gave
any account of herself, and whether she was one of the
wretched women who infested the parks ?
The constable said the prisoner frequented the park, but
he had never seen her asleep there before.
In answer to Mr. Knox, Inspector Bowles, C division,
said the park gates were closed from nine at night till six
in the morning, during which time persons were prohibited
from being there. Constables were, however, on duty till
12 o'clock at night.
Mr. Knox said it was highly desirable the women should
be removed. It was a terrible story altogether. He should
send the prisoner to orison for a month, and when she
came out she could go to the workhouse. Anything was
better than what she had been doing.
Whether from feir of being taken into custody, so much
publicity having been given to the matter, or from some
other cause, last night there was only one woman found
sleeping in the park.
ALLEGED FRAUD.—Alfred Styles, a tall, well-dressed
young man, who gave the address 8, Buckingham-street,
Strand, was brought before Mr. Knox, charged by Sergeant
Thompson, of the detective police, on a warrant, charging
him with having obtained, at HO, Jermyn-street, from
Martha Cattle, the sum of £lO by false pretences, with in-
tent to defraud Mr. Charles Cattle.

The accused was formerly a grocer's assistant, now a
sot- disant captain, and is the " enthusiastic youth" recently
discharged at the Old Bailey for the indictment charging
him with enlisting young men to go to Poland.
Upon the case being called on, the Sergeant informed
Mr. Knox that there was no prosecutor present, whereupon
the accused was discharged.

MARKETS—This Day.

MARK-LANE.
Fresh up to Mark-lane to-day the arrivals of English
wheat were on a very moderate scale. The demand for all
qualities was by no means active ; nevertheless, a fair clear-
ance was effected at Monday's currency.
The show of samples of foreign wheat on the stands was
large. Sales, generally speaking, progressed slcwly, yet
prices ruled tolerably firm.

Floating cargoes of grain moved off slowly at late rates.
There was an increased supply of foreign barley on offer,
but the show of home-grown parcels was somewhat re-.
stricted. Malting qualities changed hands rather more freely
at lull prices.
Malt sold heavily at about previous rates.

THE SUN, LOISDON, FRIDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 23, 1863.

Death of Mr. Weld, of Lulworth Castle.

The death is announced of the head of one of the
most distinguished Catholic families in England,
Mr. Joseph Weld, of Lulworth Castle, Dorsetshire,
the fine old English gentleman who received Charles
the Tenth at his noble ancestral seat, the popular
yachtsman who continued to compete in aquatic
contests even to the last years of his great old age.
Mr. Joseph Weld was born on January 27, 1777,
and was the third son of Mr. Thomas Weld, of
Lulworth (the founder of Stonyhurst College), by
Mary, eldest daughter of Sir John Stanley Massey
Stanley, of Hooton. He was the third child out of
16. His eldest brother, Thomas, on the death of
his wife in 1815 took orders in the Church of Rome,
and became a bishop in partibus in England for
some time, till the ill health of his only child, the
wife of Lord Clifford, of Chudleigh, induced him
to go to Italy. In 1829 Pope Pius VIII. made him
a cardinal--.-the first English cardinal since the pon-
tificate of Clement IX. Cardinal Weld transferred
his estates to his brother (though he himself did not
die till April,
1837), and su it came to pass that Mr.
Joseph Weld received the royal family of France
in August, 1830." Lulworth Castle had previ-
ously been visited by royalty—James 1., Charles
11., James 11., George 111., and George IV. (when
Prince of Wales), and in the middle of that month
of August it opened its gates to the royal exiles,
after the " glorious days of July." The king and his
family remained the guests of Mr. Weld for some
days, till their removal to Holyrood Palace. Mr.
Joseph Weld virtually succeeded his brother in
1837. He had married, Nov. 23, 1802, the Hon.
Elizabeth Charlotte, daughter of Charles Philip,
16th Lord Stourton, by whom he had issue three
sons and two daughters. He is succeeded in his
h"
ltirey,
au s e r his l
and m
ato estates by his eldest son, Edward Joseph, born in
1806, and married in 1838 to Ellen Caroline, daugh-
ter of Sir Bourchier Wray. His second son is Mr.
Thomas Weld-Blundell, who succeeded to the Blun-
' dell property in Lancashire. Mr. Weld was a
ilyhleardant gentleman, been
for
centuries,
and he
a a bnoto-
riously
any
averse to of the proselytisingintrigues
Which have been lately before thu public. His
tiorse4
s ire never felt the pressure of
the relit'
screw, "
and it was known through-
" Weld of Lulvrortipthe word and the honour of
from religious bigot w_ere pledged to abstinence
largely known for his
pl‘..lr. Weld, who has been
always very fortunate in'toweess in yachting, was
the construction and sail-
ing of his vessels, and his !niecese

tests in which his yachts have beenus the many
engaged was

trious services to his country', resolved to erect a publ
monument to his memory in his native city."
Mr. W. BUCHANAN, M.P., seconded the resolution,
which was cordially agreed to.
On the motion of Sir JAMES CAMPBELL, a number of
noblemen and gentlemen were appointed a committee to
collect subscriptions and decide upon the form and site of
the monument, and the artist to be employed.
The LORD PROVOST intimated that although no effort had
been made to obtain subscriptions, contributions amounting
to upwards of £7OO had been voluntarily made.
A vote of thanks to the Lord Provost brought the pro-
ceedings to a close.

J. L. Daniel in the chair. As the bank only com-
menced operations last May, sufficient time had not
elapsed to admit of a full balance sheet being given.
The report was carried, the remuneration of the
auditors fixed at £lO each, and certain clauses
relating to the management in the articles of
association expunged.

At Paris, this day, according to Mr. Rmter's
telegram, the French 3 per Cant. Rentes were

The improvement which occurred in the English
Stock Market yesterday afternoon is well main-
tained to•day. Speculation continues inert, but a
better tone prevails, and Consols remain at 93 1- for
transfer, and at 931 / for the account, with rather
an upward tendency. Additional strength has been
promoted by the easier aspect of monetary affairs,
and the Bank of England return, which is more
favourable than anticipated. Transactions have
taken place in the New Threes and Reduced
Annuities at 911 1, the 5 per Cents, 1071; India 5
per Cents., 1091 H ; ditto 4 per Cents., 1009 ; and
Exchequer Bills, ls. dis. to 2s. prem.

In the Foreign Market there is less animation,
but prices are firmer. Turkish 6 per Cents., 1858,

federate Loan, 65 67 ; and the New Portuguese
Loan, 1/ 1 prem.
Business in the Railway Share Market has been
rather more active, and prices have in several in-
stances slightly improved. Midland, South-Wes-
tern, Great Eastern, Great Western, and Lanca-
shire and Yorkshire have each improved about 55.;
North-Eastern (Berwick),los.; and Great Northern
A Stock, £2.
In the Foreign and Colonial undertakings there
is no material change to record in prices.
Bank Shares are in fair request at about pre-
vious quotations. Imperial Ottoman realise 188 0 ;

gage are quoted 3to 3/ prem.; Anglo-Austrian,

with terrified emotions,Dixon cruelly tells him that
Tommy Cooper is his father. This supposed revela-
tion is full of horror to the sensitive child, and its
recollection casts a shadow over his future life. Of
course he is not the son of Cooper, nor of Dixon.
His real parentage is discovered, after a proper
amount of mystery. By a most improbable acci-
dent Ralph, wishing to take another name, takes
unconsciously his father's name, his own actual
patronymic ! Improbable though it is in many
points, the story is sufficiently interesting. Mr.
Baxter and Mr. Ireton are two very delightful in-
dividuals, -whom one is gratified to meet with, al-
though only in a book ; and Julia Baxter, and Mrs.
Evelyn, and Lady Edith are very charming heroines.
The fatal accident that befalls Major Evelyn at the
moment of his attempted crime is very skilfully ar-
ranged, As a happy specimen of the author's style,
we may quote the following :

The Mineral Wealth of the United Kingdom.

The Stationery-office has just issued the " Mine-
ral Statistics of the United Kingdom of Great Bri-
tain and Ireland for 1862, by Robert Hunt, F.R S.,
Keeper of Mining Records."
From this important publication we are enabled
to glean the following particulars relating to the
mineral produce of these islands, the annual pub-
lication of these records being, we conceive, one of
the most valuable divisions of those labours, over
which Sir Roderick Murchison presides.

COURT OF COMMON COUNCIL,

A Court of Common Council was holden yesterday in tho
Council Chamber, Guildhall.

The Right Hon. the Lord Mayor presided, and among the
members of the Upper Bench present were Alderman Sidney,
M.P., Alderman Carter, Alderman Gabriel, Alderman Mechi,
Alderman Sir F. G. Moon, Alderman Finnis, Alderman
Dakin, and Alderman Lusk, who took his seat for the first
time since his election to the cffice, and who upon doing so
was received with cheers from the members of the Court.
There was a very full attendance of Common Councilmen,
as it was known that there was a notice upon the paper of
business having reference to the charges made against the
Entertainment Committee upon the occasion of the visit of
their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess of Wales
to the City in June last.

The LORD MAYOR, after the Court had been formally
opened, rose and said that as this was the last time he should
take his seat as chief magistrate of the city of London, he
would take the opportunity of expressing his sincere thanks,
both individually and collectively, to every member of the
Court for the kind assistance they had rendered him during
hit, year of office in pertorming titu duties of their president.
He had had the unprecedented honour of being chief magis-
trate of the City during one of the most eventful periods in
the history of the Corporation, and when they had sought to
give an expression of their loyalty to their beloved Sovereign
and her family under most eventful circumstances. The
coming of age of the Prince of Wales and his marriage with
the beautiful lady the subject of his choice were events that
called upon this great Corporation to express their feelings
of loyalty, and he thought it was a matter of congratulation
that they had done so in the most satisfactory manner ; and
he thought it was also a matter of congratulation that the
country generally had so well followed their example. For
his own part he could only assure them that he had most
anxiously endeavoured to perform all the important duties
that devolved upon him in a satisfactory manner, and he
again thanked them for the kind assistance they had ren-
dered him in doing so. (Cheers.)
FARRINGDON-MARKET.

Mr. ANDERTON gave notice of a motion for the next
Court, the object of which was to improve the present con-
dition of Farringdon-market, which, he said, in its present
state was a disgrace to the Corporation. (Hear, hear.)

CIELEBRATION of the TERCENTENARY of

r. st their claims upon the ground that Stratford is not only
the birthplace of Shakepeare, but the centre of attraction to

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

MARKETS—This Day.

MARK:LANE.

Fresh up to Mark-lane to-day the arrivals of English
wheat were on a very moderate scale. The demand for all
qualities was by no means active ; nevertheless, a fair clear-
ance was Effected at Monday's currency.
The show of samples of foreign wheat on the stands was
large. Sales, generally speaking, progressed slcwly, yet
prices ruled tolerably firm.

Floating cargoes of grain moved off slowly at late rates.
There was an increased supply of foreign barley on offer,
but the show of home-grown parcels was somewhat re-
stricted. Malting qualities changed hands rather more freely
at full prices.
Malt sold heavily at about previous rates.

The supply of oats was very large. The trade was dull
for all qualities. Good and fine samples supported former
prices, but inferior produce sold at low rates.
Beans and peas met a slow sale at Monday's decline in
prices.

In flour a moderate business was transacted at previous

curren ties.
