MINING INTELLIGENCE,
(From the Mining Journal)
We are happy to note an improvement in our mining
prospects, there having been a tolerably large amount of
transactions during the week, in the heavy dividend
mines in particular-whilst the same increased demand
is perceptible, followed by transactions, in most of the
smaller, both dividend and non-dividend, concerns; and
we have no doubt that the nearer we approach the
middle of next month the more marked will be the im-
provement in mining property generally. As to prices,
there is scarcely an instance to be noted of a decline,
whilst, on the other hand, a very marked rise has taken
place in the stocks most sought after.
The Mining Exchange Committee have called a meet-
ing of its members for Tuesday next, when we have
reason to believe that a more liberal system will be pro-
posed and adopted. so as to secure a much larger body
both of town and country members, and to afford greater
facilities to dealers and brokers, and thus make a Lon-
don Mining Exchange what has so long been required-
the central mart for the purchase and disposal of mining
shares, and obtaining iuturoastion so difficult of attain-
ment throueh other channels. We intended to have
made some observations, pointing out the most desirable
course, in our opinion, to pursue; but, perhaps. it is
bete that the matter should be left to the discretion
and management of the perties concerned.
In the Metal Market, Copper is in steady demand.-
There have been some considerable dealings in Lead;
end an improved price is anticipated -Tin is very ac-
tive, and quotations well maintained. Large purchases
have also been made in Tin-Plates.-Spelter is ad-
vancing.
The price of gold bars (standard) was 31. 17s. 9d. per
z ; silver in tears (ditto), ss. OD. per oz.; and new
dollars, 4s. 1111 per t Z. It will be perceived that the
price of silver has receded *d. per oz , which is in con-1
sequence of heavy stocks.
The shareholders of the Tincroft Mining Company
are summoned to attend a meeting on the 17th July,
when the report of the committee will be submitted.
South Tenser Mines sold on Thursday 95 tons of lead
ores, at 151. 7s. 6d. per ton, to Locke, Blacket, and Com-
pany.
The biddines for 100 tons of Newtonerd's lead ore
varied from-Poutifex and Wood, 81. Bs., to that ef the
purchasers, Newton, Keats, and Co., at 101 se. 6d. per ton.
Callington Mines sampled 45 ons of lead ore.
Trelawoy Mine sampled 100 tons (computed) silver-
lead ore, of good quality, on Saturday last.
Great Wheal Baddern sampled on Saturday about 60
tons of lead ore, and a farther sampling will take place
on the 30:h July; this concern seems to be steadily pro-
gressing, both in actual returns of ore and in the disco-
very of new ore ground, some of which is of superior
quality. rho 51 fm. level produces already a coneldera-
nne quantity of ore, and when further developed there is
-every reason to expect it will be enhanced both in quail-
•ity and amount. The stopes are highly productive, and
the tribute pitches doing well.
Toe tin obtained from the Great Polberro Mines in
tie present month will be abut 26 tons, and fur the
'est two months 56 tons. The pitches continue to yield
.bout the usual produce.
Wellington Mines sold on the -18th inst. about 451.
worth of tin.
Lewis Mines have sampled 30 tons of tin.
Est Wheal Leisure sampled on Tuesday 147 tons
•f copper ore. The tribute department is looking well,
sod 50 tons per month anticipated from the orey
ground already opened.
Wheal Russell sampled on Friday 80 tons of copper
ore.
At Wheal Crebor, 32 tons of copper ore have been
weighed this week.
At Wheal Russell some splendid gossan, strongly
.rained with "greens" of copper, has been raised from
Murchison's shaft
At Treloweth Mine, the shaft at Harrison's is nearly
down 22 fathoms, lode yielding 2* tons of good quality
ore per fathom. The engine.shaft under the 45, and
cress-cut in that level, are progressing favourably.
At East Wheal George, as expected, by driving the
crosscut south in the 23, they have found the main
part of the lode standing, and which presents a very
kindly appearance, 3 ft. wide, saving work. The hide
in the wipe() under the 12 west is worth from 81. to 10/.
per fathom.
At Wheal Golden, Thorne's shaft is sunk and cased
to 8 ft. under the 87 fm. level; and on driving an 87
fm. level the returns will be greatly increased, as the
lode is productive both north and south. In the wii.ze
under the 77 south the ground is good, producing 9
owls, of ore per fine and north 7 cwts. per fm. The 70
north produces 6 owls. per fm., and the rise in ditto 10
cwts. per fin In the 60 north the ground is moderate,
producing 3 cwts. per fathom. Webb's shaft is com-
municated to the 70. Young's shaft will be immediately
commenced. The tribute pitches are looking very well.
At Wheel Anna Consols, some parts of the engine
have been already delivered; and the most active exer-
tions are being made by Capt. l'ackey to expedite ope-
rations.
An improvement of an important nature has been re-
ported in Wheal Penton. The north end in the 30 fm.
level is producing fine stones of lead, and continues im-
proving; the lode in the south end is cut, but is at pre-
sent disordered.

counts were examined and passed, showing-Labour

The General Mining Association held their annual
meeting on Thursday, when the report and accounts
were unanien •usly adopted, and a second dividend of
10s. declared for the halt-year. The operations of the
company continue to be satisfactory, and the shipments
of coal have increased during the year.
At the Marmato Gold
,Mining Company's meeting,

The extraordimuy excellence of these reaeings consist
in the merveilous variety imparted to the characters, and
the strength and individuality with which each personage
is represented. Remat.kable and unequalled as Mrs.
Ketuble has shown h. rself in thus giving an actual ex-
istence to these creations, yetis is impossible but that some
of them must be in greater accordance with her sy mpe •
thies and capacities than others. Her genus tends, as
we take it, towards the heroic; the high, the courageous,
the daring, and we feel that the deeper passions, love,
h.pe, anti grief, and the graver emo ions, and the pro-
founder speculations, call ferth more strongly her genius.
is therefore not surprising that we should imagine we
perceive In her cotnedy less impulsiveness than in her
tregedy ; and that it does not excite in a manner cor-
responding to her sterner portrayals; or to those ren•
derines which, having a mixeire ut sentiment, admit of
a deeper shadow and sterner contrasts. It, how-
ever, must also be remembered that there is some-
thing in one's own idiosyncrasy, and that eieh of us
has a temperament and a tendency which in-
duce us more forcibly to appreciate some utterances in
preference to others. The mighty author himself is not
always equal, and some of his plays are much batter
calculated to produce strop g effects than others.
These reflections were forced upon us in listening
with great attention, and we must add with great plea
sure, to Mrs. linnble'e reading of Much Ado about
Nothing. That any author should have been able to fix
into veritable words such a character a Beatrice is most
wonderful. The charms, the graces, the witchery o
such a woman are as aerial, as changeable as the tints
of the sky—depending so much, indeed, so entire!)
on manner and mode, that she is a creature whom ever)
one pictures in the colours of his own fancy, and deck,.
with the graces and inimitable charms of such speci-
mens of womanhood as be may have the good for-
tune to have seen in lice's journey. It is for this
r ason one of the most perilous parts an actress can
undertake; and that it is so is proved by the few per-
formers that have made a reputation in it. It is still I/
tradition of the stage that Mrs. Abington has never had
an equal in the part. So difficult is it for a woman to
be wi,ty and gruceful, sententious and enchanting; Mrs.
Kemble's reaeieg gives the wit, but not the grace; tee
pity but hardly the simple impulsiveness of the joyous
creature; and she succeeded much better in bringing out
the wit that Benedick utters, and the humour of the
situltion in which he has involved himself.
The scenes with Hero and all the graver portion were
admirably given. The Dogberry scenes were rendered
with a full pointed recognition of that incarnation of
beetiledom; and the greet command she has over her
voice, gave a striking effect to the old and fatuou-
Verges. Though we may. prefer Mrs. Kembto in the
mere serious plays, we must say we know no one who
could approach her in reading this play; and that it was
equally admirable for its characterisation, sense of the
poetry, and complete recognition of the author.
We should in justice aid that it received a larger
portion of applause than others which we have more
admired.

to the Chstnber of Deputies ft OW thn Commandant G.
nor l of Sonora, stating that en expedition was on toot
at San Diego for tar invasion of Lover California. The
intelligence was received with doubt in the city of
Mexico; but, in the opinion of the leading journals, the
present course of the G .vernment tended to provoke an
invasion, ,vhich would include Lower California, Sonora,
and Tehuant-pec. Tbe present relation with the United
States, which had been seri usly embirrashed by the
course of the Legislature and of the presii, involved the
very existence of the Mexican republic. The arrival ce
G-neral La Vega at C,mpeactiy, which took place on
the 20.11 ult , was welcomed by the authorities with
general enthusiasm. The war had taken a turn in favour
of the whites. Colonel Rosario had made a successful
excursion into the eastern portion of the peninsula, re-
ducing a great numher of the rebels to subjection. The
city of Carmen, which was nearly destroyed by fire on
two occasions last year, has suffered another extensive
oonfisgration, which supposed to have been caused by
incendiaries intent ou the destruction of the city.

Extract of a letter from Lieutenant Lawrence to the
Uydrr gr4pher:—
" During tbe.ccurse of our eperations weluve very un-
expectedly come across a coral shoal at the entrance of
the harbour, having only 20i feet of water on it at low
tides. It stands directly in the F.Airway, and is a dange'
of some consequence. The shallowest part of the shod
extends in about a north and south direction from 80 to
100 feet, and east and west from 30 to 40 feet. It ap-
pears to be of coral formation, and full of inequalities,
'rum the lead dropping off the surface of the rucks into
5 and 5i fathoms. Beyond the nucleus of the shoal al•
c extendb 60 fathoms to the westward, with depth,
of from 26 to 28 feet, and about 40 to the eastward.
having 28 to 30 lest, and, occasionally, 34 feet. The sur-
rounding ground is comp,sed of sand and rock, with a
depth ut 37 feet un the north edge, and from 37 to 39 feet
ou the south."

MR OiBORNE'S MATINEE MUSICALE.

Mr. Osborne has been long known to the musics!
public of P,tris and London as a composer and pianist
of distinguished ability. His works, which are chit fly
fir the instrument ho professes, are characterisold by a
light and facile vein of melody, considerable fancy and
vivscity, elegant phrasPolugy, and remarkably brilliant
and welltconstructed bravura passages.
As a player, his equality of lone, delicate smoothness
of touch, and distinct articulation, entitle Lim to rank
amongst the first performers of the day.
Mr. Osborne played, on this occ tsion, three composi-
tions o$ his own, namely, a fantasia on airs from Don
Gi,vanni, a " Serenade," a trio for piano, viol* and
violoncello, in which ho was ably assisted by Messrs.
Sivori and Pmitt, and a caprice. entitled " ude et
li,mheur." From these clever works we select the trios,
as possessing a higher order of merit than either of the
others.

It contains many very charming passages, is con-
sistent in design, and well writtfn for all the instru-
meets. We thouglit the slow mivement the beet of the
three of which the piece consi,t-i, and the audie e
seemed to be of our opinion, for it narrowly escaped en
encore.

In his own compositions, as well as in others by
Mend.lssohn and Chopin, which the bine ficiaire al,o
performed, he was enthusiastically and deservedly ap-
plauded.
The vocalists were M. Stockhausen and Miss Cathe-
rine Hayes. The former gave excellent versions of two
German songs by Schubprr, and the latter elicited a rat -
turons encore by her exquisite rendering of Meyerbeer's
"Ah! Mon Fits," from " Le Propt a:e."
The rooms were crowded, and the concert gave gene-
ral satisfaction.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.
COURT OF EXCHEQUER, June 28.
(Sittings in B men.)
NEW TRIAL PAPER-ABBOTT V. BACON.

HORRIBLE D6ATLI BY SUICIDE.-00 Wednesday
last a stranger, who represented himself as an engineer, was
observed loitering about the blast furnaces of the Gartsherrit
Ironworks, near Glasgow. The man appeared to be some-
what eccentric in his proceedings, and stated to some of the
people that he had made an attempt to drown himself in the
canal, but he was sorry to find that there war not enough
water in it for that purpose. No one paid attention to him,
as it was not believed toe man was speaking seriously. A
little afterwards he appears to have ascended unperceived a
stair or ladder to the tunnel head of one of the immense fur•
naczs, for before any effort could be made to arrest him, het
was seen to leap into the flaming gulf. The damper or blast,
was immediately put down, but the action of the great body
of fire which is kept up by the action of the hot bl st was so
instantaneous that not even the ashes of the unhappy man
could be distinguished from the burning ironstone. The
stranger had stated that he was employed at Gartsherrie
some years ago, when the works were in their infancy, but,
beyond that, nothing is known of him.

The plaintiff was formerly superintendent of police at
Denham, in Norfolk. The defendant is the proprietor
of the Norwich Macury, in which there appeared an
article imputing to the plaintiff that he had stolen a
b ittle of pickles, some cigars. and a bottle of maeassar
oil, from a shop in the town of altharo. The detendant
plea led that the plaintiff did steal a bottle of capers, a
toothbrush, a cigar, and a piece of rottens,tone. The
ease was tried at Norwich assizes before Chief Justice
Jarvis, when a verdict was found for the defendant, the
jury saying that the plaintiff had taken the bottle of
capers 001) ; and, upon his Lordship's r, quest. as.ess.d
the damtges, in ease the Court should think that ihe pi, a
had not been made out, or that it was inaufbciebr,at orm.
farthing Sergeant Byles, however, for the plaintiff, had
obtained a ruin for a new trial.
Mr. PRENDERGAST and Mr. RAYMOND now showed
cause.
Mr. Baron PARKE. before the case was argued, said
that it was clear that the plea had not been proved. The
beiter course, therefore, would be to enter the verdict
fir the plaintiff for one farthing.
This was agreed to on both sides.—Rule accordingly.

SUNDERLAND, JUNE 24.—This day several steam-
vessels proceeded from this harbour with passengers to New-
castle, to attend the races. One of the vessels attracted
considerable attention, and excited great disgust, by exhi-
biting the American flag above the British union jack.
When she was on the point of starting, a few seamen on the
quay consulted with each other on the propriety of going on
board and tearing down the striped flag, considering its then
present position to be an insult to British feeling. Ihe de-
parture of the vessel, however, prevented the proposed
effort. We hope the above display of a foreign flag above
the British flag n board of a British vessel, and in a British
port, has been the resalt of sheer ignorimce, and not from
considerate att,ention.

We are requost“:l to state that Mr. Merry's horses
have left Mr. Ge•irge Taylor's stables, and will la,
trained for their future engagements by Mr. William
Saunders, of Hednesford.

Sir George F. B,)wen had an interview on Saturday
with Earl Gray, et the c9lon.ittl-L,Mee.
