MINING INTELLIGENCE.—NitIiOUgh we caralpt refer
this week to any important discolq rice, our home mines,
taken generally, are lookinc, as well, if not better, than
for some time past. Metalsa are at good remunerative
prmee, and without any prospect of immediate decline ;
yet there is a total want of activity in the market,
and shares are flatter than they usually are, even in
the dullest of times. This refers, almost without ex-
ception, t) the dividend stocks, for when those who
purchase solely for investment find the market gives
way immediately after they have purchased, they T atL-
rally withhold further orders, until they think shares
have reached their lowest (point.—Mining Journal of

THE RUGELEY POISONING CASES.

At the opening of the Stafford assizes on Thursday,
Mr. Baron Bramwell, before addressing the grand jury,-
called for Mr. W. W. Ward, coroner, before whom the
inquests in the case of Palmer were conducted, and in-
quired if he had the depositions against Palmer in his
possession ? Mr. Ward said he had, and added that a
writ of certiorari had been served on him to return them
to the Court of Queen's Bench. His lordship observed
that Mr. Ward had perhaps done right ht retrining pos.
session of them, but the indictment was returned to that
court. In his address to the grand jury, the learned
judge remarked with reference to the charge against Wm.
Palmer, for the murder of John P. Cook, and others,
that it would be for them to consider in the first place
whether there was satisfactory evidence that the deceased
was poisoned. The facts were that the body of Cook
being opened, no appearance was found which could ac-
count for death in a natural way, without the assistance
of something done by art, and the symptoms, it was
said, were each as strychnine alone, or some similar
poison, could produce. If they should be satisfied that
the deceased was poisoned, it would be for them to con-
sider whether the accused was the perpetrator of that
deed. They would inquire whether he was a person
possessed of sufficient skill to employ such a drug, whe-
ther it was in his possesaion, whether he had in reference
to any mater connected with it made any statements
that were untrue, and whether there appeared any
adequate motive for the commission of such a deed ;
although he was not of opinion that it was necessary to
discover what might be thought an adequate motive for
the commission of such an offence, since it was impos-
sible amid the infinity of motives that acted upon men
to say what would be sufficient to induce to the com-
mission of ouch a crime.

PRUSSIA.

A letter from Berlin, of ii:;lotb, in the Cologne
Gazette, gives the following particulars of the duel
which has taken place between M. de Hinckeldy
and M. de Rochow

" The cause of the duel is stated to be that M. de
Hinckeldy having, a few days ago, presented himself in
uniform at a place where a carousal, organised by the
princes of the blood and by some members of the highest
nobility, was takingplace,-M. de Rochow, one of the corn-
nib series, went up to him and told him no police agents
were wanted there. This led towards, and subsequently
to a challenge. The due/ took place in the Grunewald
forest. M. de Hinckeldy's second was M. de Munhau-
sen, a head clerk iu the Ministry of the Interior. M. de
Rochow's second was his own brother. The duel was
with pistols. The distance was 15 pace?, and each of
the adversaries could advance five paces. It was agreed
that if on pistol miesed fire the duel was to recom-
im nee. M. de Hinckeldy fired first, but the pistol did
not go off; his adversary, who had his finger on the
trigger, bad just time to raise his weapon. On the
second attempt both p': tcls went off. M. de Rochew
was not hi', but M. de Einckeldy fell dead, the ball
haying pierced his heart. It is said that the second
of the latter et ()nee want to Cilailettenburg to al-
qra'nt the King of the fa.al event. M. de Rechow
nteneeiately aet,r placed himsrlf at the dispo-al of
the Minister of the In e ier, and of the Military
Commandant, Major-General Vtri S hlich ing, at
the same time requesting thErn to allow him to
remain at large for a few days. People are sur-
prised that M. de Hreekeldy should have consented
to fight with pistols, labouring as he did under exces-
sive short-sightedness. The body was brought back
to Berlin from Witzleben, near Charlottenburg. During
the whole night before the duel, M. de Hinckeldy bad
:men busy putting his affairs in order. M. de Hinckeldy,
formerly a councillor of the government at Merseberg,
bad been appointed president of police at Berlin in 1848,
and has been director-general since 1854. He was also
a superior privy councillor with the rank of councillor
'of the first class, director at the Home-office, a membei•
of the Council of State, and decerated with 12 order!,
among which were the Red Eagle of the second class,
Nit h the oaken garland, the Order of St. John, and the
Order of Hohenzolfern."

GREECE.
ATHENS, MARCH 4.—The Court of Athens hav-
ing waited in vain for an invitation to be repre-
sented at the Congress in Paris, has determined on
sending her Ambassagor at London, M. Tricoupi,
to present a memorandum to that dip!omatic
assembly.

On the preseit occasion two writers for a news-
paper puLlished in Athens, in support of Russian
interest, are supposed to have been despatched to
Paris to meet M. Tricoupi, with the aforesaid
document, which has been composed by the Athe-
nian Camarilla, to be presented by his Excellency
to the Congress.

ARTICLE X.

The English and Siamese mutually agree that there shall
be an unrestricted trade between them in the English
countries of Prince of Wales' Island, Malacca, and Singa-
pore, and the Siamese countries of Ligor, Nlerdileng Sin-
gore, Patani, Junkceylon, Queda, and other Siamese pro-
vinces. Asiatic merchants of the English countries
not being Burmese, Peguers, or descendants of Euro-
peans, shall be allowed to trade freely overland and

being Burmese, Peguers, or descendants of Europeans, de-
sirous to enter into and trade with the Siamese dominions
from the countries of Mergui, Tavoy, Teuasserim, and Ye,
which are now subject to the English, will be allowed to do
so freely, overland and by water, upon the English furnish-
ing them with proper certificates. But merchants are for-
bidden to bring opium, which is positively a contraband
article in the territories of Siam ; and should a merchant
introduce any, the Governors shall seize, burn, and de-
stroy the whole of it.

We had only a moderate show of English wheat in i°
day's market. Select qd samples, which were very scarce,
were mostly disposed 0_ at full prices ; but inferior kill
ruled heavy, with the turn: in favour of buyers.
The imports of foreign N'wheat continue on a iiraiteil
scale for the time of year. Most descriptions change'
hands slowly, at about Monday'' currency.
The barley trade ruled heavy, at the late fall in price,*
Malt was dull, but not cheaper.
The supply of oats was very moderate, and the oat trag°
ruled steady, at full quotations.
Beans and peas were firm, but country flour was rather
cheaper.

3. The landing, shipment, or transshipment of goods
may be carried on only between sunrise and sunset.
4. All cargo landed or shipped shall be examined and

ARTICLE I.

On the Old Treaty concluded in 1826.
The articles of the old treaty not abrogated by the
new treaty are 1., 11., 111., VIII., XI., XII., XIII.,
and XIV., and the under-mentioned clauses of articles
VI. and X.
In article VI. the Siamese desire to retain the follow-
ing clause :
" If a Siamese or English merchant buy or sell, with-
out inquiring and ascertaining whether the seller or
buyer be of a goad or bad character ; and if he meet
with a bad man, who takes the property and absconds,
the rulers and officers on either side must make search
and endeavour to produce the property of the-absconder,
and investigate the matter with sincerity. If the party
possess money or property he can he made to pay ; but
if he does not possess any, or if ho cannot be appre-
hended, it will be the merchant's own fault, and the
authorities cannot be held responsible."
Of Article X. Mr. Parkes desires to retain that clause
relating to the overland trade, which states :
" Asiatic merchants of the English countries, not
being Burmese, Pegouans, or descendants of Europeans
desiring to enter into and to trade with the Siamese do-
minions, from the countries of Mergui, Tavoy, Tenas-
sem], and Ye, which are now subject to the English,
will be allowed to do so freely overland and by water,
upon the English furnishing them with proper certifi-
cates." Mr, Parkes however desires that all British
subjects, without exception, shall be allowed to partici-
pate in this overland trade. The said Royal Commis-
sioners therefore agree, on the part of the Siamese, that
all traders, under British rule, may cross from the
British territories of Mergui, Tavoy, Ye, Tenasserim,
Pegu, or other places, by land or by water, to the
Siamese territories, and may trade there with facility,
on the condition that they shall be provided by the
British authorities with proper certificates, which must
be renewed for each journey.
The commercial agreement annexed to the old treaty
is abrogated by the new treaty, with the exception of
the under-mentioned clauses of Articles I. and IV.
Of Article I. the Siamese desire to retain the follow-
ing clause :
"British merchants importing fire arms, shot, or gun-
powder, are prohibited from selling them to any party
but the Government; should the Government not ro
quire such fire arms, shot, or gunpowder, the merchants
must re-export the whole of them."
Article IV. stipulates that no chargo or duty shall be
levied on boats carrying cargo to British ships at the
bar. The Siamese desire to cancel this clause, for the
reason that the old measurement duty of 1,700 ticals per
fathom included the fees of the various officers, but as
this measurement duty has now been abolished, the
Siamese wish to levy on each native boat taking cargo
out to sea, a fee of 8 ticals, 2 salungs, this being the
charge paid by Siamese traders ; and Mr. Parkes under.
takes to submit this point to th consideration of Her
Majesty's Minister Plenipotentiary to the Court of
Siam.

ance of increased activity in the market for manufac-

The interests of all British subjects coming to Siam
shall be placed under the regulation and control of a

ance by British subjects, of all the provisions of this
treaty, and such of the former treaty negotiated by
Captain Burney in 1826, as shall still remain in opera-
tion. He shall also give effect to all rules or regulations
that are now or may hereafter be enacted for the
government of British subjects in Siam, the conduct of
their trade, and for the prevention of violations of
the laws of Siam. Any disputes arising between British
and Siamese subjects shall be heard and determined by
the Consul, in conjunction with the proper Siainese
officers ; and criminal offences will be punished, in the
case of English offenders by the Consul according to
English laws, and in the case of Siamese offenders, by
their own laws, through the Siamese authorities. But
the Consul shall not interfere in any matters re':erring
solely to Siamese, neither will the Siamese authorities
interfere in questions which only concern the subjects
of her Britannic Majesty.
It is understood, however, that thearrival of the British
Consul at Bangkok shall not take place before the ratifi-
cation of this treaty, nor until ten vessels owned by

and, upon proof of their guilt or desertion, shall be
delivered up by the Consul to the Siamese authorities.
In like manner, any British offenders resident or trading
in Siam, who may desert, escape to, or hide themselves
in, Siamese territory, shall be apprehended and delivered
over to the British Consul on his requisition. Chinese,
not able to prove themselves to be British subjects, shall
not be considered as such by the British Consul, nor be
entitled to his protection. •

nuck, unless expressly permitted to do so by the Siamese
Government ; but in the absence of a British ship of

sul with a force sufficient to enable him to give effect to
his authority ever British subjects, and to enforce disci-
pline among British shipping.

Siamese officer, who shall each have the power to call
in an equal number of merchants as assessors, not ex-
ceeding two on either side, to assist them in coming to
an equitable decision.
