LEEDS.

Tho news of Lord Palmerston's death, which was
telegraphed to Leeds early on Wednesday afternoon,
caused a very painful sensation among all classes of
the inhabitants, many of whom, besides greatly ad-
miring his lordship as a statesman and as the Pre-
mier of the country, had a pleasing recollection of
a public visit which he made to the borough a
few years ago, when he was presented with seve-
ral congratulatory addresses. The announcement
of the death of the noble lord took most persons by
surprise, there having been no general intimation in
the public organs that his lordship was suffering
from anything but an ordinary illness. Everywhere
might be heard expressions of regret that the man
of whom the nation has long been proud had been
called from his earthly labours. The great bell at
the Town-hall was tolled, and its solemn tones
added to the feeling of sadness which was excited by

the first announcement of the demise of the aged and
much revered statesman. In the evening, at a
public meeting of the Leeds Auxiliary of the British
and Foreign Bible Society, Mr. E. Baines, M.P.,
who presided, said that there could be no gathering
of persons that night in any part of the country
without allusion being made to the startling news
which had flashed through the country an hour or
two ago. Without making the slightest reference
to party politics, he could allude to an event which
had occurred of national importance—of world-
wide importance—that event being the death of a
man who had held high office in the Councils of
England for nearly 60 years, and who for many
years had held the chief place in those Councils.
Lord Palmerston was dead, and though the Bible
Society had nothing whatever to do with politics, it
was not insensible to considerations of national im-
portance. No religious society could be insensible
to the solemnity of an event which removed from
his position a man of such great mark as Lord Pal-
merston was; and still, even the death of a Prime
Minister sank into comparative unimportance when
contrasted with the work of the Bible Society—a
work which transcended all political andallnational
interests.

NEWCASTLE-ON-TYNE.
The great bell of St. Nicholas announced to the
inhabitants of Newcastle on Wednesday evening
that Lord Palmerston was dead, and universal re-
gret was expressed by all classes at the loss the
country had sustained by the sudden death of the
Premier. All the local papers were in mourning
yesterday morning, and the feeling of sorrow is
general throughout the north-eastern district.

The Bank of France return shows the following
alterations, which, regarded as:a whole, cannot be
considered very unsatisfactory. The bullion has
been decreased £266,670, but the notes in circula-
tion have been diminished £710,000, the advances
on stock £16,000, the bills discounted £550,000,
and the current accounts £496,000. The Treasury
balance has been increased £lO,OOO.
At the meeting to-day of the Northern Assam
Tea Company the report stated that the accounts
refer only to those kept in London, as no detailed
Indian accounts can be prepared until receipt of
accounts to end of current season. The adjustment
of the balances therefore must be deferred until
these arrive. Meanwhile the directors desire to
assure the shareholders that the strictest economy,
consistent with efficiency, is enforced in all depart-
ments.

MANCHESTER.

Intelligence of the death of Lord Palmerston did
not reach Manchester yesterday till after the close
of business, and was not very generally known till
yesterday. A profound feeling of regret was
expressed generally, and a good many flags on ware-
houses and public buildings were hoisted " half-
mast." Conversation on the Exchange turned very
generally on the loss the country had sustained in
the death of so eminent a statesman, and to a great
extent business appeared to be lost sight of in the
more absorbing topic of the day. As might be ex-
pected there was a good deal of speculation as to
who is likely to succeed Lord Palmerston as Premier,
and the names of Lord Russell, Lord Granville, and
Lord Clarendon were among those most freely men-
tioned. Mr. Gladstone was also spoken of, and an
opinion was rather freely expresSed that whoever
might be Minister, on Mr. Gladstone, as leader of
the House of Commons, the burden of power
would rest.

Naval and Military Intelligence.

The Zebra, 17, 200-horse power, Commander C.
G. Lindsay, from the West Coast of Africa, which
is now being dismantled preparatory to being paid.
off into the Chatham steam reserve, has returned
her guns, shot, shell, and most of her War Depart-
ment stores into the ordnance stores at Chatham.
Within the last few days a number of her crew, to-
gether with two officers, have been admitted into
Melville Royal Hospital, Chatham, in addition to
several of her crew removed to hospital immedi-
ately after the arrival of the ship in England. This
has so reduced the number of the effective seamen
on board that there are not sufficient hands remain-
ing in the ship to carry on the necessary work con-
nected with dismantling her, and a large party of
riggers and other hands from the dockyard have ac-
cordingly been sent on board to assist in stripping
the sloop. Only two of her officers, and a small
number of her crew, who left England with the
Zebra three years ago, return with her, the re-
mainder having either died, been invalided, or trans-
ferred to other vessels.

The screw ship Icarus, 11, 580 tons, 150-horse
power, fitting in the great basin for the first-class
steam reserve in the Medway, in readiness for im-
mediate commission, is getting well forward, and
already most of her lower wire standing rigging
has been set up. Her fittings on board are being
proceeded with, and opportunity taken to overhaul
her engines and machinery. The Icarus is intended
to relieve one of the v essels which will arrive home
in the ensuing spring.

ever, was received in good condition, and the trade, on the
whole, ruled steady at full prices.

A tolerably large supply of foreign wheat was on the
stands. The amount of business transacted was moderate,
and Monday's currency was steadily supported.
Floating cargoes of grain were in fair demand, and prices
ruled firm.

Good and fine barley was scarce, and changed hands at
full quotations. There was a good supply of inferior barley
on offer, the trade for which was dull on former terms.
Malt changed hands to a moderate extent at late rates.
Oats were in good supply,_and the trade for them ruled
firm at full prices.

Beans and peas were in but moderate request, but Mon-
day's quotations were supported.

LEEDS.

The news of Lord Palmerston's death, which was
telegraphed to Leeds early on Wednesday afternoon,
caused a very painful sensation a-nong all classes of
the inhabitants, many of whom, besides greatly ad-
miring his lordship as a statesman and as the Pre-
mier of the country, had a pleasing recollection of
a public visit which he made to the borough a
few years ago, when he was presented with seve-
ral congratulatory addresses. The announcement
of the death of the noble lord took most persons by
surprise, there having been no general intimation in
the public organs that his lordship was suffering
from anything but an ordinary illness. Everywhere
might be heard expressions of regret that the man
of whom the nation has long been proud had been
called from his earthly labours. The great bell at
the Town-hall was tolled, and its solemn tones
added to the feeling of sadness which was excited by

the first announcement of the demise of the aged and
much revered statesman. In the evening, at a
public meeting of the Leeds Auxiliary of the British
and Foreign Bible Society, Mr. E. Baines, M.P.,
who presided, said that there could be no gathering
of persons that night in any part of the country
without allusion being made to the startling news
which had flashed through the country an hour or
two ago. Without making the slightest reference
to party politics, he could allude to an event which
had occurred of national importance—of world-
wide importance—that event being the death of a
man who had held high office in the Councils of
England for nearly 60 years, and who for many
years had held the chief place in those Councils.
Lord Palmerston was dead, and though the Bible
Society had nothing whatever to do with politics, it
was not insensible to considerations of national im-
portance. No religious society could be insensible
to the solemnity of an event which removed from
his position a man of such great mark as Lord Pal-
merston was ; and still, even the death of a Prime
Minister sank into comparative unimportance when
contrasted with the work of the Bible Society—a
work which transcended all political and allnational
interests.

THAMES.

CRUEL ROBBERY.—WaIter Middleton, a dirty little shoe-
maker, of No. 21, Turner-street, St. George-in-the-East,
was brought before Mr. Partridge, charged with stealing
three dresses and a shawl, valued at 51., the property of
Sarah Austin.

The prosecutrix is an industrious young woman, a ser-
vant out of place, and was staying with a friend named
Elizabeth Hardnam, of No. 20, Turner-street, where she
deposited her box, containing all the property she had in
the world, the fruits of her own industry. The prisoner
was in Mrs. Hardnam's room on Saturday night. He was
in distress, and had received assistance from her. Yesterday
the prosecutrix missed her dresses and shawl. Suspicion
fell upon the prisoner, who was taken into custody by
Donald M‘Kay, a police constable, No. 275 K, to whom
he stated that he had committed the robbery and pawned
the property for 265. He expended the money in the en-
joyment of his own sensual gratifications. His wife, who
came to the station-house with him, was nearly naked, and
there was no furniture in•their room.

Mr. Partridge asked if tho property had been recovered ?
M'Kay—No, sir; he said he pawned tho young woman's
clothes for 265. and destroyed the duplicates.

Mr. Partridge—Find the property if you can. I will
romand the prisoner for a week.

MARKETS—This Day.

MARK LANE.

The arrivals of home-grown wheat fresh up to our market
to-day, coastwise and by rail, were very moderate ; the
receipts coastwise, indeed, were small. The supply of
samples on offer being limited, there was continued firm-
ness in the trade, and Monday's advance in prices was well
supported.
About an average supply of foreign wheat was on offer.
American produce moved off steadily on full currencies,
and the trade for European descriptions was decidedly
firm. As compared with Monday the quotations exhibited
no alteration.

Floating cargoes of grain were in steady request at full
currencies. _ _

There was a good supply of barley on the stands. In
most descriptions sales progressed slowly, on former terms
Good and fine malting qualities were scarce and firm in
price. _ _ .

Malt:changed hands slowly, at late rates.
With oats the market was well supplied, and the trade
was dull, at drooping prices. • There was a large supply of
damaged Scotch oats on sale.- • -
Beans were dull, at the recent decline in prices. Peas
met a slow sale, at late rates.
,The ftour trade was-steady; and prices ruled firm.

The Loss of Her Majesty's Ship Racehorse

The following account of the loss of her Majesty's
ship Racehorse is from the North China Daily
News:--
" We regret to have to report the total loss of her Bri-
tannic Majesty's despatch boat Racehorse, which occurred
on the evening of the 4th of November, in the Bay of
Lung-mun, about twelve miles to the east of Chefoo. At
eight o'clock on the above evening the weather being at the
time extremely thick and hazy, it was thought that the
vessel was entering Ohefoo harbour, to which Lung-mun
bay bears a great resemblance. Similar accidents have
occurred or; previous occasions, as, for instance, in the case
of the British barque Homer, which was' totally wrecked
there during last winter, and the steamer Swatow which,
under exactly the similar circumstances, was indebted to a
mere accident for preservation from destruction. As soon
as the Racehorse went ashore the masts were cut away
and every attempt made to lighten her and get her off.
These efforts were, however, unsuccessful, as a gale, which
had been threatening for some time before, set in with ter-
rific violence, and prevented the men from either working
at the ship or launching the boats. Nothing remained,
then, for the crew to do but to fasten themselves down as
best they could. Enormous seas continued to sweep over
the deck so that next morning, out of a total strength of
one hundred and eight officers and men only nine survivors
were found, the rest having perished of cold and exhaustion,
or having been iswept off the decks. The survivors are
the commander, the paymaster, boatswain, and six sailors
who saved themselves by taldng to the last remaining
boat, and drifting about for 36 hours, when they were
picked up by a junk. On the morning after the wreck
her Majesty's gunboat Insolent, accompanied by a French
despatch vessel, cruised for a considerable time in the
neighbourhood, but did not succeed in picking up any
others of the crew."

STEEL PEN MANLTFACTURE.—In one of the pro-
cesses of steel-pen making by females at Birming-
ham, a quick worker will cut out in one day of 10 work-
ing hours 250 gross, or 36,000 pens, which involves 72,000
distinct motions of the arm, two in every second.—Report
of Children's Zmykrdment Commiaion.

ITALY.

The.military quay in the port of Naples will be
ceded to the mercantile navy. The Committee, of
which General Valfue is president, have set out for
Naples, to select a site for another military arsenal.
M. de Malaret, the French Ambassador to the
Italian Court, has arrived here.

SPAIN.

MADRID, JAN. 6.

The Correspondencia of to-day says :—" If it is
true that Peru demands that we should give up the
Chincha Islands before granting us satisfaction, a
conflict is unavoidable. We shall not leave in that
case without proving that Spain is not to be
offended with impunity, nor without reimbursing
ourselves for the expenses of the war.

FRANCE,
TILL POPE'S ENCYCLICAL.
PARIS, JAN. 6.

The Moniteur of this morning says :—" The last
portion of the Pope's encyclical letter will be pub-
lished throughout the Empire in the ordinary form.
This portion is received without any approbation in
consequence of the clauses, formulas, and expres-
sions it contains, and which are or might be con-
trary to the law of the Empire, as well as to the
liberties, franchise, and maxims of the Gallic
Church."

FALMOUTH DOCKS.

A special meeting of this company was held at the offices,
Falmouth, on Tuesday, Mr. E. B. Tweedy in the chair, for
the purpose of obtaining the necessary sanction to the issue
of 80,0001. preference stock, in addition to the 50,0001.
authorised at the last half-yearly meeting, in order to the
more speedy completion of the dredging and surface works,
as laid down by Mr. Abernethy, the engineer. The motion,
authorising the issue of the preference stock, was put by
the Chairman, seconded by Mr. J. Freeman, and carried
unanimously.

The Secretary, in reply to a question, stated that the re-
venue of the company for the half-year would approximate
1,7001. in the present crude state of the works ; and the
Engineer said that in less than one year the additional ac-
commodation and deepening to 18 feet at low water over
the entrance, and the outer basin of 00 acres area could be

BALLADS and SONGS of BRITTANY. By
TOM TAYLOR. Translated from the " Barsaz-

Original Melodies harmonised by Mrs. Tom TAYLOR. With
Illustrations by J. Tissot, J. E. Millais, R.A., J. Tenniel, C.
Keene, E. Corbould, and H. K. Browne.
"We have not, indeed, for an age had such a volume of
ancient ballads, such echoes from the archaic world which
underlies our very selves, such odd sanguinary aspic attons,
such plaintiff superstitious moans from the depths of our
common savage human nature. . . The book abounds in
Illustrations, some of them of a very supert( r excellence. .
A very choice production, which there is little occasion to re-
commend further to all scholars and lovers of poetry and
art."—Times.
