remains ungarnered, and reports are current that the new
wheat is sprouting in many places. In the Long Sutton
district harvest operations have been much retarded by
stormy days, but during the past week the weather has
happily been more favourable, and large quantities of
corn have been secured in fair condition, although, in
several instances, carrying has been too hastily effected.
Reaping-machines have done good service in this neigh-
bourhood. Several samples of new wheat have been ex-
hibited in Spalding market ; the quality has varied con-
siderably, and has not been very good. A large quan-
tity of corn has now been carried about Thorney ; the
quality and quantity are inferior. In the Market Rasen
district a few stacks have been raised, but a great propor-
tion of the corn is still unfit for loading. A Lincoln report
says that in that neighbourhood harvest operations have
been greatly impeded by unsettled weather and frequent
showers ; a great breadth of corn is down. A similar report
is made from Trentside, where fears are entertained that
there will be sprouted corn.

The Price of Gold.

The quotation of gold at Paris is about per mille pm., and
the short exchange on London is 25.22. per £1 sterling. On
comparing these rates with the English Mint price of £3
17s. 104 d. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is
nearly 2-I‘ths per cent. dearer in London than in Paris.

'1 he course of exchange at New York on London for bills at
60 days' sight is 1081 to 109 per cent. At these rates there is
no profit on the importation of go 'd from the United States.
By adviccs from Hamburg the price of gold is 428 per mark
and the short exchange on London is 13.71 per £1 stcrlin
Standard gold at the English Mint price is, therefore, about
3-10tha per cent, dearer in London Ulm in Hamburg.

cautious, and they only took for immediate wants. Foreign

in good supply, but the condition poor, and sold at irregu-

Shocking Parricide.

EVESUAIS, Saturday.

A man named Charles Vale has bean to-day committed
for trial on the warrant of Mr. Best, the coroner for Eves-
ham, on the charge of killing his father. The inquest was
held to-day before Mr. Best, when it transpired that the
prisoner lived with his father (the deceased) and his brother
and sister, at Pi-idgenorth ; that on Thursday night he
came home lsie and was making a noise, when his father,
told him to desist, on which one of the daughters pushed
her father out of the back door. He then got in at the
front, when the prisoner seized him by the shoulders and
with an oath pushed him into the street and knocked him
down, feacturing his skull and causing instant death. The
following witnesses were examined :
George Tombs, cooper, heard a quarrelling at the Vales
between ten snd eleven o'clock on Thursday night, and
saw the deceased and the prisoner struggling together in
the passage. Told the prisoner not to strike his father,
and he said he would not, but that he would turn him
outside. When they got outside the passage the prisoner
struck his father, and the latter fell on the pavement on
the back of his head.

Two other witnesses, a printer named Gestingham and
a gardener named Baylis, who saw part of the affray, cor-
roborated Tombs's evidence. The prisoner, when thrust-
ing his father out of the house, had his hands at his throat,
and threatened to " kill the -." Deceased fell with
great force on the pavement, and no signs of life were
visible in him after. Baylis heard the prisoner say to his
father, as he pulled him out of the passage, " - your
old eyes, come out and Pll give you something."

[ADVERTISEMENT.]—HoIIoway's Ointment and Pills.—

THE HARVEST.

The weather hus continued unpropitious for harvest
work in many parts of the eastern district, although the
constant showers which have fallen are very partial. In
the neighbourhood of Stamford a large quantity of grain
remains =garnered, and reports are current that the new
wheat is sprouting in many places. In the Long Sutton
district harvest operations have been much retarded by
stormy days, but during the past week the weather has
happily been more favourable, and large quantities of
corn have been secured in fair condition, although, in
several instances, carrying has been too hastily effected.
Reaping-machines have done good service in this neigh-
bourhood. Several samples of new wheat have been ea•
hibited in Spalding market ; the quality has varied con-
siderably, and has not been very good. A large quan-
tity of corn has now been carried about Thorney ; the
quality and quantity are inferior. In the Market Rasen
district a few stacks have been raised, but a great propor-
tion of the corn is still unfit for loading. A Lincoln report
says that in that neighbourhood harvest operations have
been greatly impeded by unsettled weather and frequent
showers ; a great breadth of corn is down. A similar report
is made from Trentside, where fears aro entertained that
there will be sprouted corn.

WARWICKSHIRE.

'ln addition to the 70 cases of cattle plague which
occured at Meriden, near Coventry, five of which
were fatal, a few weeks ago, the disorder has broken
out more recently at Hurley, near Coleshill, but any
further extension was prevented by the destruction
of the affected animals by their owners, who by this
means fortunately lost only seven cows. The above
were the only reported cases in this county up to
Saturday last. They were mentioned in The Sun.
The same day a meeting, to take measures to pre-
vent the extension of the plague, was held at the
Shire-hall, Warwick, the High Sheriff, Mr. H. T.
Boultree, took the chair, and among those present
were Lord Leigh, Mr. Adderley, M.P., Mr. Newde-
gate, my., Mr. A. W. Peel, Sir R. Hamilton, &e.

in contact with North London, going ahead of them second,
the other Thames pair also collaring North London, who
were in no sort of form. Near Simmonds's the Mouflets,
half way over the London, ran into a yacht at anchor, and
capsized; this enabled London to get away, and, the others
rowing well to the Point, North London were beaten.
London held a good lead right home, winning by ten
lengths ; North London four lengths astern of Thames.

They were started very unfairly, a barge being on top of
the West London pair as they got away. This left them
three lengths astern ; Twickenham, athough in the worst
water, obtained a fine lead ; Ariel and London together.
The West London pair soon recovered, and rowing fast
• but without style, collared the Londoners and Ariels,
Twickenham leading, and they rowed a fine race to Situ-
monds's ; hero London, endeavouring to avoid a foul with
the Ariels, came into collision with West London, and by
this became third ; West London last. The Londoners
soon got clear and cut down the Ariels, and when level
with Twickenham they ran into a boat, Fenner being
thrown on his back ; the West London came over their
stern, crossed, and came out third, but when off again the
London pair put it on, disposed of West London and Ariel
at the Point and Dung Wharf, and, catching Twickenham
at the Crab Tree, went to the front. The Ariels now steered
badly, but came up over the Twickenham stern; the latter,
however, by good watermanship, washed them right home,
and came in second by two lengths to London; Ariel third,
a length astern of Twickenham; and West London last.
No foul allowed, but claimed by West London. The row-
ing in the first three boats was good, but that of the Aridl
pair deserves great commendation.

WEST CORK.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was
held on Friday, at the offices, Gracechurch-street,
Sir C. P. Roney in the chair.

Mr. H. WOOD, the secretary, read the report,
which stated that owing to several unforeseen diffi-
culties in obtaining possession of certain houses
and land in the town of Bandon, the opening of
the line to Dunmanway had been unavoidably
delayed beyond the time anticipated. Those diffi-
culties had, however, been entirely removed, and
the works required to complete the junction with
the Cork and Bandon Railway had so nearly ap-
proached completion as to leave only an excavation
of 130 yards in length to be removed for finally
completing the junction of the two lines. The di-
rectors made a satisfactory trial trip over the line
on the 14th March last, from a point near the town
of Bandon into the town of Dunmanway, a distance
of 17 miles. The rolling stock was all delivered on
the railway, the engines were ready, and the sta-
tions and other requisites for opening were com-
pleted up to Dunmanway. Of the 151 miles of line
to complete the line from Dunmanway to Skibbe-
reen, four miles had already been finished, and the
permanent way and fencing for the whole length
had been delivered. The works on the remaining 11i
miles were easy of construction, and a considerable
extent of land was expected to be obtained by pay-
ment in shares of the company. The preference
share capital of £120,000, bearing interest at 6 per
cent. per annum in perpetuity, authorised in the last
session of Parliament for completing the line to
Skibbereen, was now ready for issue in shares of £lO
each. On the completion of the works between Ban-
don and Dunmanway the Cork and Bandon Rail-
way Company would be required to pay their sub-
scription of £20,000, as per agreement. The direc-
tors were of opinion that the consolidation, of the
Cork and Bandon, the Cork and Macroom, the
Cork and Kinsale Junction, and the West Cork
Railways into one uniform and reciprocal system of
management would not only enhance the value of
the several properties, but stimulate further exten-
sions westward to Clonakilty, Bantry, Crookhaven,
and other places. They also looked forward with in-
creased confidence to the ultimate establishment of
Crookhaven as a port of call for Tiansatlantic
steamers. The capital account to the 30th of June
showed that £306,656 had been expended, leaving
a balance of £2,026.

The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the
report, said his confidence in the success of the
undertaking • was undiminished, and he believed
that when the lime was completed and opened for
traffic to Skibbereen further extensions west-
ward would be promoted, for the purpose of open-
ing up a large area of country hitherto undeveloped.

Mr. J. W. HOLLAND seconded the motion for the
adoption of the report, and it was agreed to.
The proceedings concluded with a vote of thanks
to the chairman.

means 800 or 1,000 miles might very likely be re-
covered, as instead of the sudden strain of pulling
two miles off, the line would be gradually drawn up
from shallow to deep water. We have not spoken
of the additional difficulty of finding the lost cable,
though the lapse of several months will hardly facili-
tate that.

With regard to the manufacture of the new line
there are plenty of suggestions, as usual, forthcom-
ing ; and some very sensible remarks are made in the
current number of the Mechanics' Magazine, from
which we quoted on Saturday. The writer objects
to a spiral cover to a straight copper wire, alleging
that the natural extension of the spiral covering
would help to break the enclosed wire by subjecting
it to an excessive and unnecessary strain. Other
persons advise the adoption of a hempen covering,
and various plans and improvements are suggested.
We can only hope that whichever be the method
adopted it may prove in the end successful, and
that the directors will not be influenced by any
prejudice or partisanship, but will take the best
opinions on the matter, and follow the course
which offers the most reasonable chances of suc-

AUSTRIA.
VIENNA, AUG. 28.

In the negotiations between the Sovereigns of
Austria and Prussia for the definitive settlement
of the succession question to the Duchies, the fol-
lowing points have been agreed to by both Powers
as the basis for the future organisation of the
Government of Schleswig and Holstein :

1. Austria and Prussia recognise the Vienna
treaty of peace as the only legal basis for the
settlement of the question of the sovereignty of the
Duchies. Both Powers therefore form the only
tribunal which, so soon as they shall come to an
understanding on the subject, shall have the
authority to decide on the future political organi-
sation of the Duchies.

2. The duty of defending the Duchies will be
undertaken by Prussia, and whatever ultimate
settlement of the succession question may be arrived
at, the military resources of Schleswig and Holstein
will be placed at her disposal.

CALCUTTA AND CHINA MAILS.

MARK-LANE.

The trade for wheat in the country markets held on
Saturday ruled firm, and, in some instances, good and fine
old samples were rather dearer than in the previous week.
Spring corn of all descriptions changed hands at full quo-
tations. The flour trade was steady at quite previous rates.
On the Continent the corn trade generally is firm, and
prices have an upward tendency. A t New York, however,
breadstuffs have commanded very little attention for ex-
port.

The arrivals of English grain up to our market last week
were very moderate. The imports from abroad amounted
to 28,159 quarters of wheat, 3,198 barley, 136,444 oats,
1,600 beans, 429 peas, 900 rapeseed, 658 sundry seeds, and
1,108 sacks of flour.

Fresh up to our market to-day the total amount of old
and new English wheat was moderate. Last year's pro-
duce was of prime quality, and the supply of new wheat
came to hand in fair condition. The trade for all qualities
was decidedly quiet. Factors commenced business by
demanding higher prices both for red and white qualities,
but were eventually compelled to accept the rates of Mon-
day last in order to effect sales. At those prices a fair
amount of business was transacted. Our quotations, there-
fore, are without material variation from those of this day
se'nnight, but as regards the best old wheats they were the
turn higher.

The market was fairly supplied with Continental wheat,
but somewhat scantily with American produce. As regards
prices the trade was firm, but the demand for nearly all
qualities ruled far from active. Last Monday's currency,
however, was well supported.

Floating cargoes of grain were in fair demand, at full
quotations.

The supply of new home-grown barley on sale was
limited; prices ranged from 30s to 35s per quarter. For
foreign barley the trade was firm, at full prices.
Malt fully supported precious rates. A fair business
was transacted.

There was a very large supply of oats on offer, and the
trade, in consequence, ruled slow, but without leading to
any change of importance in prices. As compared with
Monday last, the quotations exhibited a decline of 6d. per
quarter, chiefly in Russian produce.

Beans were in short supply, and late prices were sup
ported.

The market was scantily supplied with peas, in which
business was done at late rates.

About an average business was transacted in flour, a
last Monday's currency.

NORTH LANCASHIRE.

A circular, of which the following is a copy, has
been prepared by the council of the Royal North

)

Lancashire Agricultural Society, and will shortly be
among the cattleowners and farmers of the northerzi
division of the county :
" The Cattle Plague. Precautions and Suggestions.
—l. Attend diligently to cleanliness and proper ven-
tilation in your shippons and cattle-sheds ; use water and
the besom, quick lime, or other disinfectants freely, and
frequently limewash the interior of your buildings. 2.
Pay the strictest attention to the wholesomeness of the
food and the purity of the water supplied to your cattle ;
house them in good time ; and do everything possible by
care and attention to maintain a high standard of health.
3. Buy no stock but such as is absolutely necessary, and get
a warranty from the seller, or take the opinion of a skilled
person:before you buy. 4. Keep separate each lot of newly-
bought stock, whether cattle or sheep, for a fortnight; and
do the same with the animals you may bring back unsold
from a market or fair. 5. Lose no time in insuring your
cattle agains t the effects of the cattle plague. 6. Keep a
strict watch over your stock, so as to detect the first symp-
toms of the disease ; should any appear, send at once
for a skilful veterinary surgeon ; remove the animal
attacked immediately to a situation as far as possible
from the healthy stock; and avoid any and every pos-
sible means of communication between the diseased and
healthy stock, by man or beast, by clothes, pails, fodder,
litter, manure, or any other thing. 7. Carefully destroy by
fire the fouled bedding, dung, &c., of the animal affected,
so that nothing connected with the disease may be re-
moved to the midden or flow into the tank."

GUERNSEY.
On the 23d inst. the Royal Court of Guernsey
passed an ordinance, whereby from and after Mon-
next, the 28th inst. masters of vessels are forbidden,
under penalties, to import cattle from the United
Kingdom into Guerniey unless they are provided
with a certificate from a person exercising the pro-
fession of a veterinary surgeon declaring that the
cattle on board are healthy and free from all conta-
gious disease when shipped in the United, Kingdom ;
such certificate to be authenticated by a justice of
the peace or notary public. By other provisions of
the ordinance no cattle to be imported into Guern-
sey except at the harbour of St. Peter Port ; and
all cattle imported thereat are to be declared to the
harbour-master on arrival, and not to be taken away
from the quay without his leave.
