In Caubul, the focus of Affghan, Persian and Rus-
sian intrigues, an attempt has been made to enlist
Dost Mahomed in another plot against the British.
The agent in this scheme had come from Persia,
but the old Dost was too wary to expose himself
main to the chances of a conflict with the British,
particularly after their recent successes at Lahore.
His son, the notorious Akbar Khan, was not pleased
with the pacific policy of his father, and he was
eager to have an opportunity of regaining poisession
of Peshawur and even of Cashmere. Intrigues and
counterplots were in full play at Caubul.
In the newly-acquired provinces of Jullunder and
the Doab of the Beas, the British troops have, during
six months, been healthy. The fertility of these dis-
tricts is very great, and the inhabitants appear de-
lighted at the prospect of being allowed to carry on
their industry and to collect its product, secure of
being treated with justice by the British authorities,
and not with tyrannous exaction such as their former
Seikh rulers practised.
There was a slight disturbance in the Cuddapah
collectorate of the Madras Presidency, but it was
speedily suppressed. Its leader, Nlirsima Reddy, was
hotly pursued by the polif,le, and would not be long
at large.
An attempt was made by the British Resident at
the Nizam's Court to arrange the pecuniary affairs of
that country. Some refractory landholderS have been
compelled to give accounts of their demands, and the
lawless mercenaries, who have proved hitherto to be
such a curse to that state, have been disbanded or ex-
pelled from the Nizam's dominions. The decision of
the British Government to introduce good order into
the Nizam's finances will, it is to be hoped, produce
the best results.
The conquest of the Island of Bally, which is now
attempted by the Dutch, continues to be the source
of much observation at Singapore. It appears to
have the tacit assent of the British Government ; for
otherwise the treaty of 1824 is evidently opposed to
the extension of the Dutch territory in the eastern
islands.

CLERKENWELL.—(THIS DAY.)
Joseph Clayton was charged with using threats of a
Very violent nature towards Mr. H. Benjamin, and as-
saulting his wife.
From the evidence of Mr. Benjamin it appeared, that
ha was the foreman of a jury before which the prisoner
Was convicted at the Old Bpiley, when he was sentenced
to three months' imprisonment; and since his release he
has been in the habit of using the most ferocious threats
towards Mr. Benjamin ; and a like system of annoyance
bas been followed by a number of the prisoner's com-
panions, from the neighbourhood of Field-lane, West-
court, and Saffron-hill. This morning he entered Mr.
Benjamin's shop, when he said to him " You are the
who gave me three months, but I will have it cut
of you," The prosecutor then attempted to call a con-
stable, but the prisoner swore he should not leave the
shop until he gave him 4d. for a pot of beer ; and Mrs.
Benjamin entering the shop at the moment he ran at her
and struck her two or three violent blows on the breast.
A constable arriving, he was then given into custody.
The evidence of four constables, whose united efforts
were required to tie the prisoner on a stretcher before
they could convey him to the station-house, showed that
he had used the most excessive and brutal violence to-
wards them, kicking and biting like a maniac.
Mr. Comm said there were few offences that he
should feel more inclined to punish with severity than
that of attempting to threaten or
intimidate a juror. He
should sentence the prisoner to a a of 54 or
default be imprisoned with hard labour fine
months;
for for two
for the assault on the police he should commit him, with-
out fine, for one month with hard labour; and at the
expiration of those two terms of imprisonment he must
find bail to be of good behaviour for, three months.

MARKET INTELLIGENCE

BREAD RIOT IN PARIS.
(From Galignani's Messenger.)
A serious disturbance took place on Thunday night in
the Faubourg St. Antoine, occasioned by an augmenta-
tion (of 4 centimes) in the price of the 41b. loaf. The
following particulars have reached us from an eye-wit-
ness. The inhabitants of the Rue du Faubourg St. An-
toine and adjacent streets, chiefly inhabited by cabinet-
makers, white-smiths, &c., assembled in considerable
numbers at seven o'clock yesterday evening, and pro-
ceeded to the bakers' shops in the vicinity, in order to
lay in provisions of bread, in consequence of tho rise in
price commencing this morning. The quantity left after
the sale of the day was soon disposed of, and the crowd
increasing became riotous, and broke the shop fronts and
several of the gas lamps. This scene continued for some
time, and about halt-past nine the mob commenced rais-
ing a barricade across the Rue du Faubourg St. Antoine,
with the stones of the Rue Lenoir, which they unpaved
with incredible celerity. The Horse Municipal Guard
soon afterwards arrived, anti rode among the crowds
several times, but they always opened their masses and
gave them free passage, closing immediately behind
them. A battalion of the 48th Foot, headed by its
Colonel, afterwards came to the spot. They were re-
ceived with cries of " Vive la Ligne I" and the tumult
having lasted until near midnight, the populace began
gradually to disperse, and the streets became compara-
tively quiet. The rioters did not, however, separate
without making an appointment for rendezvous at the
same quarter this evening. The bakers having been
prevented baking in the night, carts loaded with bread
this morning arrived from all quarters, and the bread
they contained was sold in the street.

(From the Landon New Price Current of October 2.)
SUGAR.—To-day the market presented a very heavy ap-
pearance for all grey, brown, and common yellow kinds of
West India Sugar, and rather lower rates were taken, mak-
ing the fall for the week is per cwt; but bright grocery sorts
were sold to a fair extent, and fetched prices equal to these
of Friday last, but not above. Holders of all inferior Sugars,
both Colonial and Foreign, are anxious sellers.
REFINED.—To-day the demand was limited for Refined
goods for home consumption ; the value of brown lumps ac-
cording to quality is 62s to 63s 6d, and standard lumps 64s
to 64s 6d per cwt. There are sellers of Bonded Crushed
Sugar at 33s 3d for first quality, but there are few buyers to
be met with.
MAunmus.—This afternoon the quantity of Mauritius
Sugar offered at auction was large and amounted to 10,114
bags; good and fine yellow sorts met with attention and
brought full rates, but other' kinds went off heavily • grey
and the low and middling kinds of yellow at a fall of Is, and
on brown sorts the decline was is 6d to 2s per cwt—nearly
the whole, however, sold.

strenuous efforts, they succeeded after a few hou most
rs, in
extinguishing, with only the loss of two or three rooms.
The exertions of the sons of the Noble Viscount (who
was himself absent), were beyond all praise, and they
Were greatly assidted by the villagers, servants, and ladies
of the family, who carried buckts of water in the most
adefatigahie manner, and displayed the utmost courage

means no one is able to discover) in the Viscountess
Gage's bedroom.
D.LEADFUL MURDER AND SUICIDE..---A dreadful
murder of a woman and child, with the suicide of the
perpetrator of the deed, too;c place oa Wednesday morn-
ing, at Eltham, Kent, The coroner lost no time in
issuing his warrant for summoning :a jury, and early in
the afternoon the inquiry was gone into, by which it
appeared that Sharruck Rudd Bragg, a brie Mayer, had
murdered his wife and child, by beating them over the
temples with a hammer, and afterwards cut his own
throat. When the deed became known the man was
dead, but the woman and child, though totally senseless,
still breathed. The child, V.ged five years, died about
two hours after the discoiery was made; but the woman
lingered till about len o'clock, when death put a period
to her existence. When discovered, an infant, aged
four months, -was found by the side of the woman, un-
injured. Prom the evidence adduced, no doubt could
exist ort the question as to the man at the time being
insane, Paid verdicts to that effect were accordingly ,',re-

:., .tXPERIMENTS IN THE ROYAL ARSENAL, WOOL-
VICH.—The experiments with three 42-pounder guns,
one on Mr. Monk's principle, one on the Admiralty prin-
ciple, and one on Lieut.-Colonel Dundas's principle,
were completed to-day by the bursting of Lieut.-Colonel
Dmidas's gun. Mr. Monk's gun burst at the eighteenth

ells rge. The Admiralty gun stood forty rounds, with
two shot and a charge of 10} lbs. of powder each charge,
and, ten rounds with three shot, and 10i lbs. of powder
eae'h charge, and burst at the 51st round with three shot
and 12 lbs. of powder. Lieut.-Colonel Dundas's gun

tun rounds with three shot and 10i lbs. of powder, and
five rounds with three shot and 12 lbs. of powder; at
the last of which it burst into numerous pieces, having
axe eeded the Admiralty gun in strength, by sustaining
four additional very heavy charges.
It NAUTICAL FACTS.—A writer in the New Quar-
terl,y Review states that the average number of
wrecks
(31 iSritish merchant ships a year is 600 ! The average
aunt lost above two millions and a half sterling ! The
butaverage of lives lost, the lamentable number of 1,560 ;
theg
t_,wrecks of fifteen out of every twenty are attri-
us'u to some incompetency or other on the part of the
la.

An alarm prevailed at Aden in the beginning of
August in consequence of a threatened attack on that
fortress by some Arab chiefs.
Several transports with detachments of her Ma-
jesty's Bth Regiment of Infantry, and of the 10th
Regiment of Hussars, had arrived in Bombay, but
there were apprehensions entertained respecting
others, and, in particular, relative to the Anne
Armstrong, with a portion of the Bth Regiment on
board. She was reported to be the quickest sailer of
the transports, yet she had not arrived when the
steamer left Bombay.
The weather during the month of August was fine,
and, fortunately enough for the troops arriving frail
Europe, who were obliged to march to refinah. It
ought to be impressed on the memories of the military
authorities at the Horse Guards that the practice of
having soldiers to arrive in India during the rainy
season is to be deprecated, as endangering the lives
of hundreds by exposure to violent changes of tern-
peratutz.

COME.—This afternoon there was no public sale of
Coffee, but 3,400 bags of Ceylon, 166 casks 20 barrels of Ja.
maica are declared. By private treaty there was little
business done in any sort, but good ordinary pale Native
Ceylon was not to be obtained ander 39s per cwt.
Tna.—Holders of Congou are unwilling to further reduce
their prices, although the trade act with caution, and do
not take more than their wants compel them. Pouchong is
wanted, and the supply being small, holders are enabled to
obtain 4id to 6fei for low to middling, and 7d to 10d for
good to fine. • Tvrankay has met with little attention.
For Scented Orange Pekoe there are not many buyers,
although good to fine can be obtained at is 9d
to 2s, and plain at 9d to 10d. Of Hyson several parcels have
been sold in consequence of merchants further reducing their
prices. In Gunpowder there has been little passing, and
prices are lowering. For Imperial the market has a dull ap-
pearance. The consumption is going on satisfactorily, and
the trade in town or country are not over supplied, but the
stock held by importers is immense, and far exceeds that of
last year. Merchants are complaining of the loss they ex-
perience on the importation of the common kinds of black and
green tea.
FRUIT.—This afternoon at public sale 260 boxes of new
damaged Valentia Raisins were sold at 39s to 43s 6d ; 50
boxes 170 half ditto of old sound sold at 30s; 1,328 boxes
1,094 hf do new Muscatels in layers 525, damaged at 42s to
49s ;190 boxes of New Jordon Almonds, taken in at 8115 s to
91 for sound, and the damaged at 81; 248 pkgs of new Patras
Currants, sound nearly all taken in, butts 565, Carateels 575,
but damaged sold at 53s to 553; 1,970 pkgs Imperial French
Plums were all withdrawn; 90 pkgs of Prunes taken in half
brls at 80s, 'Aland W, ditto 82s.
SPICES.—For Nutmegs the demand has been less active,
and the market having been more freely supplied, prices
have slightly given way. Mace is still wanted, and nearly
fetch late rates; 36 chests at auction were sold. Pimento
has been in excellent request. Black Pepper is not offered
at any further decline, and the market has been less freely
supplied; but there has been only a limited business
transacted privately. Several parties are surprised that the
demand is not husker, as prices are low compared
with those of former seasons, and the stock not large. White
has met with little attention, and prices continue to rule low.
Cassia Lignea is wanted, and in consequence of the small
supply prices are rising. Cloves have been sparingly
dealt in, but lower rates are not taken. For Jamaica
Ginger prices ruling low occasions the demand to be
good, and the parcels disposed of were at rather
hi -her rates • the better qualities being the most in request.

COCOA.—The demand has fallen off for West India; and
the
market having been more liberally supplied, a decline in
prices of la to 2s per cwt has taken place. Of Grenada 499
bags were offered at auction, and a part only sold. Foreign
has met with little attention.
SAGO is wanted, but at present no advance in the value

PUGILISM.
THE CIIAMPIONSHIP.—Perry, the Tipton Slasher, has ad-
dressed a letter, challenging Caunt to a pugilistic tournament
for 2001. aside, and adds that Bendigo will be in town next
intention
of with the belt, which he has announced his
of presenting to the winner, should there be a contest, or to
that man who shall be ready to meet all corners, without
being able to find a customer. Caunt Is understood to sti-
pulate that the stake should be 3001. a-side, and that the
affair shall come off upon a stage. In reply. it is urged,
that it was formally settled, some years since, that the holder
of the title of Champion should be compelled to do battle for
the minimum stake of 200/., or forfeit his claim to be so
called ; and furthermore, that to propose a stage at the
present day is a palpable evasion of the encounter, as its con-
struction would be a signal of defiance to the magistrates in
any county where its fixture took place. These seem to be
be valid objections, and time will shortly show which of the
pugilistic candidates is in earnest in his proposal of a match.

GRAND CASINO AT THE ADELAIDE GALLERY,
STRAND.—M. Laurent, who first gave the public a taste
for Promenade Concerts, has converted the above well-
known establishment into a grand Casino, which will be
opened for the winter season on Monday next, in a style
of splendour that eclipses anything of the kind ever at-
tempted in England. The building has been entirely
re-modelled, under the direction of Mr. J. Breckell, the
theatrical machinist, the various scientific specimens
and articles of vertu have been removed, and
the spacious hall now forms a grand salle de danse, which
has been most superbly decorated by Mr. Hurwitz,
and ether skilful artists, the ornaments being designed
in Paris. Some beautiful statues,:by Brucciani, are
tastefully arranged in the orchestra, the vestibule, and
other parts of the building, while the walls of the lower
part of the grand hall are covered with plate glass, orna-
mented with wreaths of laurel, evergreens, and bou-
quets of artificial flowers, which present a coup d'eeil
the most brilliant. Magnificent beaufets have also been
fitted up, where refreshments of the most recherche
description will be served. It is the intention of the pro-
prietor to give a series of soirees musicales, for which a
band of upwards of fifty talented performers have
been engaged, under the direction of M. Laurent, jun.
The solo performers include Messrs. ratey (leader),
Grattan Cooke, Carte, Patton, Winterbottom, Maycock,
J. Streather, Stanton Jones, Shargool, Pratten, Winter-
bottom, jun., Catchpole, Range, and Sedgwiek. Among
the vocal performers engaged, are Mr. J. W. Sharp, and
Mr. Binge (from Vauxhall Gardens), Mrs. J. Roe, and
Miss Clairton. M. Laurent, in order to gratify the taste
of the votaries of Terpsichore} will give each evening,
after the concert, a " Bal Pare D'Hiver," under the di-
rettlion of six masters of ceremony.

month. The evidence adduced on the former occasions
have, from time to time, appeared in our columns. The
unfortunate affair had excited much interest, in conse-
quence of the respectable connexions of the parties im-
',heated. Yesterday several hours were occupied in
examining witnesses, who identified those of the party

at great length. The jury, after a short deliberation,
returned a verdict of manslaughter against Richard
Heywood, Henry Boddy, and William Branch, and the
Coroner issued his warrant for their apprehension and

AEROSTATION EXTRAOREINART.—Yesterday even-
ing being the last night of the season at Cremorne
Gardens, the proprietor, Mr. Ellis, engaged the " Royal
Nassau" balloon for the occasion. As the gas could not
be provided by the Imperial Gas Company, who required
three days' notice, the proprietor applied to the London
Gas Company, at Vauxhall, to fill the balloon with gas.
Their consent having been obtained, about twelve o'clock
it was conveyed there, and in the course of three hours
in the car), taken

COMMERCIAL IN
THE BOMBAY MARKET.
(From the Chamber of Commerce Overland Price Curi-ent.)
BOMBAY, AUG. 27.—The commercial season is noNv
fairly re-opened, but hitherto the business. el one has been
limited, few of the traders from the interior having as
yet entered the market, ar.d the local dealers having
only purchased such goods as it is imagined wlll be re-
quired by these latter when they make their appearance.
There has been but little rain since our last, and the
monsoon (save in some districts of Guzerat, which have
suffered from excessive rain) has proved very favourable
to the agriculturist. By next mail, when the communi-
cation with the coast will be thoroughly open, we May
probably be enabled to report an extension of transac-
tions. Meanwhile the rate of exchange on England has
gradually fallen, and this has of course rendered it neces-
sary for holders to ask higher prices. The scarcity of
money is no longer felt, and the rates of discount charged
by the banks have been lowered.

Metals—There has been a slight improvement in the
prices of copper, but the transactions have not been large,
holders generally being indisposed to sell at the current
rates. We are apprised of sales of, 440 cwt sheathing
at 551 rupees, and 100 cwt. braziers' at 55 rupees. In
iron there have been some operations, and both Swedish
and British bar are in request, though the advance in
prices has as yet been but slight.
Besides the above, we hear of some sales of Swedish
bar at 50r. 5a., and

British at 311 r. ver candy. tozethe
