MARLBOROUGH .STREET, THIS DAY,

THE DANGEROUS CATAPULT NUISANCE.--Jamos
Fullalove, a young man living at 25,Queen-street, Bromp-
ton, was charged with throwing stones by means of a cata-
pult in Kensington Gardens, to the common danger of
passers.

Alfred flaseler, one of the park constables, said he was
on duty in Kensington Gardens the previous afternoon,
when he saw the defendant throwing stones by means of
the catapult produced. The defendant was just inside the
gate by the flower garden at the time. The defendant said
he was sorry for what he had done, but in consequence of
the numerous complaints made by visitors to the gardens
of lads throwing stones he took him into custody.
Defendant said he was very sorry, but he did not know
he was doing any harm.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said discharging stones from such a thing
as that produced was very dangerous, and everybody must
know it. It was a practice that could not be permitted, and
with the view of protecting the publio he should fine the
defendant ss. or seven days.

The park constable asked whether he should give the
catapult back to the defendant, but Mr. Tyrwhitt told him
not to do so.

Owing to the favourable accounts at hand from the plan-
tations, the business doing in our market is mostly confined
to actual wants, at previous quotations. A few samples of
old hops, however, have been taken for export. The Chan-
cellor of the Exchequer has intimated that the amount of
drawback to be allowed stocks on hand on September 159
will be 7s per cwt.

PUGILISM.

THE CHAMPIONSHIP.—The game struggle between
James Mace and Thomas King for £2OO a-side, and the
championship, Look place in January last, when, after one
of the gamest battles of modern times for the belt, King
(though he at one period made it as Mace himself after the
tournay acknowledged, a great deal " too warm" to be
pleasant) suffered defeat. There were strong expectations
entertained that Tom would avail himself of the earliest
opportunity of again entering the list with his successful
opponent. Torn, however, did not challenge his antagonist.
Since the contest above referred to, four months have
elapsed without any candidate turning up for the champion
honours. At length this calm has given place to active
movements, and the initiative step has been taken by Bob
Brettle, the leading man of the Birmingham division.
Brettle,who has a faculty for looking up fresh " hardware,"
has recently intimated that he has discovered a mean
ncham-
of
sufficient merit to match against the accomplished
pion of England for £2OO aside, and the belt. In pro of
that Brettle is in earnest, he has deposited a "fiver," which
has since been covered by Mace to make the
the match, the
articles for which have to be ratified during present
week. Brettle's man is styled the Unknorn," and as
may be anticipated there is no little curSinguliosity marlyanifested to
ascertain " the Unknown's" identity. enough,
no sooner does there appear a fresh candidate in the field
than Mace's old opponent King rouses to action, and comes
forth desirous to enter the list, stating that he has good
reasons to give to those who require an explanation" why
he did not challenge Mace earlier. Torn as an earnest
that he also means business has posted the needful with
the stakeholder at that gentleman's headquarters;
as and
e
though he cannot put aside " the Unknown"
,6 Mystery" was first in the field, yet if Brettle does not
go on with the match, Mace, as the champion hammerman
of the P.R., will have to strike t'other iron while it is hot.
A match for the belt is closely impending.

The Journal de Rouen announces a most im-
portant di,covery which will enable the manufacturers of
cotton cloth to dispenso with the use of American cotton.
It appears that a piece of cloth has been manufactured of a
common plant which grows wild in the fields, and which
will shortly be exhibited to a commission composed of ma-
nufacturers. The discovery has been communicated to the
Emperor, who takes great interest in its success.

JOZEAU'S COPAHINE MEGE.—Copaiba and
Cubebs are doubtless the best remedies, but are of a re-
pulsive taste and odour, and occasion collicky pains, nausea,
and gastric disturbance. M. Jozeau has succeeded in render-
ing them perfectly innocuous by increasing all their curative
properties. It has been adopted by the Paris Academy of
Medicine atter more than a thousand trials in Paris and the
different London hospitals, viz., St. Thomas's, Guy's. and
St. Bartholomew's, under the care of Messrs. Lloyd, Poland,
and Leg,ros Clark.—(Lancet, Nov. 6, 1857). The Copahine,

The following is from the Friend of India of

" For some months Ram Rao, a rebel who claims
to be the natural head of the Mahrattas in the en-
forced absence of the rival pretensions of his uncle
Nana Sahib, has been exciting discontent in Hyder-

annexed. But for the energy of Salar Jung, the

TEA.—The business of the fortnight has been small,
prices aro firm, and have an upward tendency, but the small
assortment remaining is hardly sufficient to indicate a mar-
ket. The supplies next season will be large, unleFs the
movements of the rebels interrupt the trade. Shipments of
new congous will probably be made direct from Hankow to
London. Large supplies ere expected there. The Canton
men have managed to secure 200 to 300 chops, which will
be sent down to Canton as usual. Sanguine expectations
are entertained of Kewkiang as a market for green teas in
future. At Foochow as much tea is expected as there was
the pre:ent season.
The shipments this season to Great Britain are expected

over more than a quarter of a century, most strongly
recommends those Pills as the best purifiers, the mildest

delusive, or merely give temporary relief, but attack all
ailments of the stomack, lungs, heart, head, and bowels in
the only safe and legitimate way, by depurating the blood
and removing those imperfections which are the foundation
and support of almost every disease. Their medicinal effi-

i in the harbour were mustered and marched out on
1 the day mentioned, equipped for active service, and
the prospect of a warm engagement. That night
the whole force bivouacked at a rendezvous a few
miles from the camp, which was 12 miles west of
1 the settlement.

" On the morning of the 4th they marched on the
camp, driving in the outpost of the enemy, and
about ten a.m., stormed the intrenchments, which
were of a very formidable character. The rebels
showed fight, but evidently the great body of them
had escaped by the rear. There was a sufficient
number, however, to do some damage to the attack-
ing force, for we learn that two or three men on
our side have been killed and several wounded.
Among the latter is Dr. Escott, of the Snake, The
camp was soon taken by storm, and the rebels, who
fled beyond the entrenchments, were attacked in
the rear by some Imperial troops, with consider-
able loss. The fortifications were as far as practi-
cable, destroyed, and the entrenchments rendered
untenable. It was conjectured that the retreat-
ing rebels would retire upon Tbing-poo, when
in all probability their progress would be inter-

Colonel Ward with a party of his men, told off to
attic& a second position of the enemy. They had
scarcely come within gunshot of this post when the
insurgents seeing only Chinese troops advancing,
made a rush at them, and the Imperialists retreated
without effecting their object. In the skirmish a,
stray bullet wounded the British admiral in the leg,
which necessitated Lis returning to Sik-a-way for
• medical assistance. The whole party is expected to
return to the settlement to-morrow."

PUGILISM.

ea,hd"-as'e:gmdse
THE CHAMPIONsHIP —Tb.e game struggle between
James Mace and Thome; King for £2oolt a-side,h afteran d the
championship, took place in
of the gamest battles of modern times asfOrwtheenbelt Koinne
(though he at one period made it as Mace himself after theg
tourney acknowledged, a great deal "too warm" to be
pleasant) suffered defeat. There wore strong expectations
entertained that Tom would avail himself of the earliest
opportunity of again entering the list with his successful
opponent. Tom, however, did not challenge his antagonist.
Since the contest above referred to, four months have
elapsed without any candidate turning up forthe champion
honours. At length this calm has given place to active
movements, and the initiative step has been taken by Bob
Brittle, the leading man of the Birmingham division.
Brettlo,who has a faculty for looking up fresh "hardware,"
has recently intimated that he has discovered a man of
sufficient merit to match against the accomplished cham-
pion of England for £2OO aside, and the belt. In proof
that Brettle is in earnest, he has deposited a " fiver," which
has since been covered by Mace to make the match, the
articles for which have to be ratified during the rsna:
week. Brettle's man is styled " the Unknorn,"..er_

Disease, as also to free these questions from the Professional
Fallacies, the Popular Delusions, and the exaggerations of

THE PRESENT DISTRESS IN TRADE
fully explained in J. GROSSMITII'S
" GOVERNMENT UPON FIRST PRINCIPLES."
The cause is there predicated of the monetary difficulties ex-
perienced in 1860. The Crisis is at hand. Anxiety in busi-
ness has now become the grim torture. Purity of motive.
Intelligently exercised, must animate all Governments, or all
is lost, All denominations of Constitutions are carefully
examined in J. Grossmith's "Government upon First Prin-
ciples."
