LIVERPOOL-00T. 6.

The Witch of the Wave, for Rio Janeiro, has put back
with a loss of figure-head, cutwater, &c., having been in
contact off the Bell Buoy with the Active, of New Quay,
which lost bulwarks, stancheons, &c.
The brigantine Little Bray, from Troon to Swansea, was
abandoned yesterday morning,
,off the Calf of Man, in a
sinking state the crew, five in number, were taken off the
foremast head by the Montazuma, for Grenada. In getting
out her boat to rescue the crew, it swamped alongside,
severely injuring the carpenter, and snapping the main
yard 'of the Montezuma, which compelled her to put back.
A brigantine put into Holyhead at 9 a.m., with loss of
mainmast.

HOTEL' CHARGES.—A correspondent, who signs him-
self "A Country Squire," writes to confirm the obser-
vations which we made under the head of "Reform of
Hotel Keepers' Charges." He gives a perfect history in
his adventures—or, as he calls them, mis-adventures—
in search of a dinner, for the amusing details of which
we have not space. It would seem that he attempted
to dine in an equal style at the different establi6hments,
and that a costly charge has generally accompanied an
exceptionable dinner. He appears at length, however, to
have settled down at the " Wellington," where, proba-
bly, the eulogies he bestowed upon "first-rate viands
and excellent cookery " may be, in some measure, •due
to the fine appearance of the apartments themselves,
although the accompanying bill, for himself and friend,
would tend to justify his choice :—" Wellington, St.
James's-street ; entrance 160, Piccadilly, October 5,

JOHN OSBORNE'S

string of Derbyites at Ashgill, Middleham, numbers
five, two of whom have been backed for a little.
Mr. W. E. Milner's b c GRAPESHOT, by Alarm, out of
Volley (sister to Voltigeur), by Voltaire, nominated by
Mr. Carew, was purchased at the sale of the last-named
gentleman's stud in December, 1851, for the small
sum of thirty-three guineas ! I understand he is likely
to prove a highly remunerative spec., but not in con-
nection with the Derby. Has started thrice, and been
defeated each time.

b c SAQUENAY, by St. Lawrence,
out of Amaranth, by Bay Middleton, nominated_ by
Lord Bolton, has never appeared in public, andis, in
my opinion, a very inferior animal.
Mr. J. Osborne's MocAsslN, by Cotherstone (winner
of the Derby), out of Miami (winner of the Oaks), nomi-
nated by J. Hawley, after running wretchedly in a couple
of races, has been put out of training. How about
-blood as a criterion to judge by after this ?
Mr. Walter's b c LORD FAUCONBERO, by Irish Bird-
catcher out of Alice Hawthorne, by Muley Moloch out
of Rebecca, by Lottery, was an early foal, having drawn
breath for the first time on the 12th January, 1850. His
name was introduced to the ring at Tattersall's on the
31st of May last year, when"4o to 1 was laid against him
—the price at which lie has been occasionally quoted ever
since. Ho made his debat at Newcastle, where he ran
a bad second to the celebrated Vindex for the Produce
Stakes. His next appearance was at Liverpool, where
he finished a good second to Game Tommy for the Tyro
Handicap. His last run placed him, for the third time,
in the second position, Zeta having beaten him, with
some difficulty, by a neck, for the T. Y. 0. Stakes at
Northallerton. This animal is the best produce of the
far-famed Alice, and, I presume, will be the representa-
tive of the stable at Epsom ; but, although uncommonly
useful, is not the sort of horse to carry off the. Derby.
Mr; V. Surtee's br c 110NRYWOOD, by Sweetmeat out
of Maid of Team Valley's dam, was backed for the first
time at "the corner" on the 3d inst., at 66 to 1. This
horse, without any pretensions to speed, gives every
sign of being able to stay. He is rather large and
loosely built, and is the sort of horse to shine among
second-class animals, but will not do for the Derby.

were asked for beef than has been for the last four yowl,

were few sheep penned, which soon found buyers, at high
prices. Fat calves were scarce. The number of pigs was
less than it has been for many months past in this market.

CORN EXCHANGE.

The present week's arrival of English wheat up to our
market coastwise has been on the increase, it having
amounted to 4,980 quarters, almost wholly from Essex and
Rent. By land carriage, the receipts of that grain fresh
up to-day were limited ; and the show of samples of both
red and white was very moderate. The few selected
qualities on offer changed hands at fully Monday's prices ;
but low and damp parcels commanded very little attention
'at late rates.

The imports of foreign wheat are 6,680 quarters, mostly
from the westward. On the whole, the demand was
steady, but we have no change to notice in the quotations.
Floating cargoes were held at very full prices.
Although the supply of barley was on the increase, the
demand ruled steady, and the quotations were well
Supported.
We had a fair sale for malt, at full currencies. •
The oat trade was firm, and prices were well main-
tained. About 14,000 quarters have come to hand this
week.

Beans, peas, awl flour moved off slowly at lato rates.

Notwithstanding that the supply of beasts on offer in
to-day's market wasverylimited, the demand for all breeds,
owing to the small number of buyers in attendance, was in
a sluggish state, yet Monday's prices were supported. With
sheep we were very scantily supplied. On the whole, the
mutton trade ruled firm, at full rates of currency. Prime
small calves moved off freely, and, in some instances, the
quotations had an upward tendency. Inferior calves com-
manded very little attention. The sale for pigs was some-
what heavy.
Mulch cows met a dull inquiry, at from 141. 10s to

SEASONABLE FESTIVITIES.—At the social

MACASSAR OIL, for creating and sustaining a luxuriant head of
hair; Rowland's Kalydor, for rendering the skin roft, fair, and
blooming ; Rowland's Odonto or Pearl Dentifrice, for imparting a
pearl-like whiteness to the teeth ; and Rowland's Aqua d'Oro, a frag-
rant and spirituous perfume, an essential accompaniment to places of
public amusement and crowded assemblies. The patronage of
Royalty throughout Europe, and the high appreciation by rank and
fashion, with the well-known infallible efficacy of these articles, ren-
der them a peculiarly elegant and seasonable present. Beware of
spurious imitations. The only genuine of each bears the name of
" Rowlands' " preceding that of the article on the wrapper or label.

ance, to the great annoyance
requestedtnuag
the prisoner,
toon whoiavereethe house, was making
whnguisceh he fu
of verreydseisd-
gusting language,
to do. Complainant then called his waiter to eject hini
from the place, whereupon he (prisoner) broke six squares
of glass, and after he got into the street he assaulted the
waiter. Witness added, that the prisoner belonged to a
gang of bad characters, and he had frequently forbid
them to come into his house, and he was determined to
put a stop to their annoyance. The damage done
amounted to 30s.
Police-constable, 51 F, was on duty in Dury-lane
about half-past 10 last night, when he heard the cries of
police, and perceiving a scuffle at the door of the
Craven Head, he went to see the cause, when prisoner
was given into his custody for breaking the windows and
assaulting the waiter. He at once took him in charge,
and on their way to the station, prisoner struck him and
kicked him with great force on the legs, the skin of
which was considerably abrased, and hewas now in such
pain that he could hardly walk. Witness struggled with
the prisoner, and had it not been for the timely assist-
ance of a person named Harrison he had no doubt but
that the prisoner would have fearfully injured him. After
considerable resistance on the part of the prisoner, he
was at length lodged in the station.
Mr. Harrison, professor of the Indian Club exercise,
said he went to the assistance of last witness, whom the
prisoner was violently assaulting —in fact the prisoner's
conduct was that of a second Cannon—he was butting
at, and kicking the officer, who behaved with the greatest
forbearance. Witness aided the officer in conveying
him to the station, and on their way thither the prisoner
tripped him (witness) up and fell on tho top of him. As
soon as he recovered his feet prisoner struck him in the
face.

The prisoner, in his defence, said he was too drunk to
remember about what had taken place, or to be conscious
of what he had been about.
Mr. Jardine said—For the assault on the constable
you are committed for a month ; for the assault on Mr.
Harrison, 20s. or a month ; for the assault on Boswell,
20s. or a month, and for the damage done to the windows,
30s. or another month; making in the whole four months,
each month to commence at the expiration of the other.

TO IiENBY RUSSELL.

'Tis o'er ! The last deep tone hath died away
Upon the lavished car, and yet we pause ;
Hoping to catch one lingering note, we fear
To break the solemn stillness that pervades
The raptured throng. Although the voice be mute,
Not so the answering tone the soul gives back—
The fond response that spirit yields to spirit.
The awakened chord rings on, the throbbing heart
Beats with a wild pulsation ; for a storm
Of melody hath swept the soul's clear depths—
A magic power bath stirred the placid tide ;
So the wave rolls, although the tempest's hushed.
Oh ! fondly cherished tones, so dearly loved—
Prized above all our memory's treasured hoard.
What though the summer roses fade away.
With gentle care we tend the scattered leaves ;
They can recal for us the summer's smiles.
Dear friend ! what power, what witchery is thine I
As the rock parted 'neath the Prophet's touch,•
So at thy bidding doth the heart of stone
Give forth a stream of love and charity.
Great is the talent yielded to thy care—
A blessing unto thee, to us, to all
Who share thy gentle teachings. May we take
Each lesson to the heart, and learn to love,
With deeper awe, the God who gave to thee
A gift so beautiful and good !

EISTEDDFOD AT BANGOR.—The next grand provincial
Eisteddfod of North Wales will be held at Bangor in
the autumn of 1854. The ceremony of proclama-
tion took place on Tuesday. in a field in the im-
mediate vicinity of the city. Several hundreds
of persons were present, including many English
visitors, who appeared to be much interested in the,
to them, novel proceeding. In the centre of the field
was a large stone circle, called a Gorsedd, in the middle
of which
was placed a single stone of imposing dimen-
sions. Into this circle the principal bard, Eben Fardd
(Ebenezer the bard) entered uncovered, holding a
sheathed sword, and .wearing a massive silver medal,
won by him
in a bardic encounter at Welshpool. Two
other bards, Clwydfardd and Mewaigg Idris, imme-
diately followed, also uncovered. The graduated
bards and ovates were then summoned into the cir-
cle, all being uncovered, and wearing blue ribbons
round the right arm. The sword was then unsheathed and
placed upon the stone in the centre of the circle, Eben
Fardd pronouncing the words, "The truth against the
world." He then took
,the sword and pointed it towards
the sun, exclaiming, In the face of the sun, and in the
eye of day." He afterwards read the proclamation,
which summoned all bards, minstrels, and others inte-
rested in the promotion of arts, music, and literature, to
meet at the Provincial Eisteddfod, to be held at Ban-
gor, " one year and a day " from the date of the procla-
mation—viz , September 21, 1854. The presidency of
the Bangor Eisteddfod is not yet fixed upon.
CHELSEA SUSPENSION BRIDGE.—The Commissioners
of Woods and Works have given directions that the
works in connexion with this new structure shall be ac-
celerated in their progress.

WILTS, SOMERSET, AND WEYMOUTH.

Official information in reply to inquiries from the
shareholders has just been furnished, to the effect that
it is the intention of the Great Western to carry on the
works over the whole line from Frome to Weymouth,
so that they may be simultaneously opened for traffic,
and that the works will be carried on as rapidly as pos-
sible, that the heavy outlay may be rendered productive
without delay.
