METROPOLITAN CATTLE.

Our market to-day was heavily supplied with foreign
stock; but the quality of both beasts and sheep was very
middling. Sales progressed slowly, but at full prices.

The arrivals of English beasts, fresh up this morning,
were again very moderate for this time of year, and most
breeds came to hand in middling condition. Prime Scots,
short-horns, Downs, &c., sold readily at fully late rates.
Otherwise the beef trade was in a sluggish state at about
last week's currency. The value of the primost short-
horns ranged from 5s 4d to 5s 6d. In some instances 5s
8d per 81bs was realised. The supply from Scotland was
prime, from Ireland very moderate.
From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton-
shire, we received 1,800 short-horns, &c., from other parts
of England, 800 various breeds ; from Scotland, 280 Scots
and crosses; and from Ireland, 50 oxen and heifers.
With English sheep we were again but moderately sup-
plied, and we observed no improvement in their general
quality. Downs, half-breds, and Lincolns, changed hands
freely at full prices. Inferior breeds were dull, and rather
cheaper. The top quotation was 6s 4d per 81bs.
Lambs—the supply of which was only moderate—were
in fair request at late rates—viz., from 6s to 7s per 81bs.
_ . .

There was a fair demand for calves at full quotations
The top price was 5s 2d per 81bs.
The demand for pigs was in a sluggish state on former

ABRIDGED PROSPECTUS

This Company has been formed to take over the busi-
ness of the Accidental Death Insurance Company—the
existing constitution and capital of which aro now found
to be inconvenient and inadequate to its recently largely
extended operations.

That Company ,(empowered by special Acts of Parlia-
ment, 15 Vic., c. 06, and 22 and 23 Vic., c. 22) was founded
in 1849, with a nominal capital of £250,000, in 50,000
shares of £5 each, of which 20,000 have been issued. Tho
following statement, embracing the amount of Premiums
since the commencement of the Company, shows the pro-
gressive and steadily increasing nature of its operations:—

The accounts of the recently formed Marino Insurance
Companies, which have exhibited good dividends and
shown prospects of great value, leave no doubt on the
minds of the Directors that at any rate equal success will
attend the efforts of the Corporation in this direction. The
services of a gentleman of experience have been secured as
Underwriter.

The extensive machinery of agents (of which there are
between 4,000 and 5,000) is in full work, and is of great
value—indeed the directors confidently believe that all
that is required to secure a rapid increase in the existing
business is a proper adaptation of modern requirements as
regards capital and position.

Applications for Shares, accompanied by a remittance
for the deposit, may be made to the Bankers, Brokers, and
to the Secretary at the Chief Office, on the accompanying
form.

Gale's Gunpowder Experiments.

Mr. Gale, the inventor of the impalpable powder
which, being mixed with gunpowder, renders it
non-explosive, is determined that his invention shall
be made generally known ; and indeed it seems
only necessary that its character and uses should be
understood for it to be appreciated. He showed
his experiments at Wimbledon, and has repeated
them since before those in authority and interested
in the manufacture and storing of gunpowder.
We believe that we are right in saying the impal-
pable powder consists almost entirely of ground
glass, and according as the powder is mixed with
the gunpowder in large or small quantities so is its
explosiveness diminished. On Saturday Mr. Gale
went through a serious of tests and experiments on.
the lawn at Mr. W. Edgcombe Rendle's mansion,
Torwood, Wimbledon Park. Amongst those pre-
sent were—Sir John Hay, Mr. Gilpin, M.P., Mr.
Thomas Chambers, who was recently returned for
Marylebone, Alderman Gabriel, D. Wilson, Esq.,
J. S. Scarborough, Esq., W._ Irving Hare, Esq.,
Captain Connor, W. E. Rendle, Esq., and other
gentlemen.
Amongst many other tests four bowls were placed
side by side, No. 1 containing an ounce of gun-
powder ; No. 2 an ounce of gunpowder and two of
Gale's powder ; No. 3 an ounce of gunpowder and
three of Gale's powder; No. 4 an ounce of gun-
powder and four- of Gale's powder. A fuse was
put in each and lighted ; of course No. 1 exploded
instantly, No. 2 went off like a squib, in No. 3 there
was scarcely any combustion, and No. 4 put the
fusee out and refused to burn, although several
ordinary cigar lights were placed in it: In another
instance 211 b. of gunpowder was mixed with Gale's
powder in a wooden box, in its centre was placed
an ounce of gunpowder and covered with the mixed
powder ; a match was passed down to the ounce of
gunpowder, and it exploded without communicat-
ing the flame to the mixed powders in the midst of
which it was exploded.

The operation being purely mechanical, and not
chemical, the gunpowder is not impaired in quality.

Messrss. Gouverneur, Butler, and Eicholbrenner, a
scientific trio, claim to have invented a process by which
cheap and excellent gas can be produced from the dregs
or mash remaining of apples or pears after the cider is ex-
pressed. The process is stated to be so simple that it can
be performed in every household. Experiments on a large
Gala are now in progress.

Senor Alvaro Reynoso, director of the Government
laboratory at Havana, has introduced a new process for
the refinement of sugar by the use of phosphate of alumi-

every process hitherto attempted or proposed. The French
Academy
of Sciences has appointed a commission to in-
quire into this invention.—The

The most gigantic railway project in our engineering
age seems on the eve of practical realisation. It is nothing
less than a railway through the Swiss Alps, connecting
Northern with Southern Europe by a continuous track for
the locomotive. There appears to be no doubt that the
physical difficulties, enormous though these are, can be
overcome-with money, of which there is no lack, and the
only question has hitherto been as to the choice of routes.
The city of Genoa had appropriated 6,000,000 f. towards
the work on condition that the Lukmanier pass was se-
lected; Milan contributes 10,000,0001. on a similar con-
dition in favour of the Splugen pass. Switzerland and
Bavaria, on the other hand, prefer respectively tho St.
Gotthart and the Brenner. Signor Jacini, the Italian
Minister of Public Works, has just appointed a commis-
sion to examine the various plans and report upon the
locality of the proposed road best suitable to the interests
of the whole kingdom. Ile has also induced the cities of
their appropriations to what-
Genoa and Milan to apply
ever route the commission might recommend. In addi-
to these 16,000,000 there is 10,000,000 which, by a
clause in the treaty for the sale of the State railways, the
new', company is bound to contribute towards the proposed
undertaking. A bill, based upon the report of the com-
mission, will be introduced in the Chambers at the next
session, and negotiations are now on foot with the Go-
vernments of Switzerland and Baden to settle the amounts
of subsidies to be paid by them. The participation of
Wirtemberg, Bavaria, and the German Customs Union is
also invited and expected, though the latter have not yet
diplomatically recognised the kingdom of Italy.—The Index.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

SAD OCCURRENCE.—James Took, a cab-driver, badge
9,843, living in Pool's-buildings, Gray's-inn-lane, was
charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with causing the death of a
boy about 13 years of age, named Alfred Garrett, by driv-
ing over him with a horse and cab.
Police-constable llarv®y Lee, 91 A, said—On the pre-
vious afternoon he was on duty at Hyde-park-corner when
he saw the prisoner driving a horse and cab and a boy
named Alfred Garrett crossing the road. While the boy
was doing so, and was just in front of the horse, he slipped
suddenly, and the wheel of the cab passed over his head.
The boy was immediately taken to St. George's Hospital,
but died before getting there. •

In answer to Mr. Tyrwhitt, the constable said the pri-
soner was going at a steady trot, and that if the boy had
not slipped he would have got across safely.
Mr. Tyrwhitt remanded tho prisoner on his own recog-
nisance.

It was stated in court that the mother of the deceased
boy is now in a dying state, having been ill for some time

but did not touch it. The prisoner, without saying a word,
gave him a violenk blow upon the cheek. Complainant
remonstrated with the prisoner, when the latter repeated
the blow in the same place. A police-constable came up,
who was also struck. He was then taken into custody.

FALMOUTH.

There is, after all, to be a contest for this borough. Gen.
North will come forward as a Conservative, and will, it is
said, go to the poll. The Liberals will have no fear as to
the result of any contest, although it seems clear that their
opponents will do all in their power to gain one of the
seats. The announcement of the new candidate has occa-
sioned considerable excitement.
