PRUSSIA.

BERLIN, Aug. 16.--The Dresden Journal states
that Baron Seebach, the Saxon Minister in Paris,
has just arrived in the Saxon capital, and is about
to proceed to Moscow. The nomination of a repre-
sentative for the Crown of Saxony at the eleventh
hour excites a little surprise in certain circles,
while in others the choice of representative that
has been made is taken to confirm the belief
that has been [entertainedl there for some time
that the Emperor Louis Napoleon' is still endea-
vouring, through the intermediation of the re-
presentative of 6axony3 to bring about a meeting

with the Emperor of Russia. The private
sion of the Illaropt to St. Petersburg previous to
the conclusion of peace is referred to now as the
first link in a chain of private overtures that is to
end in au intimate and confidential relation be-
tween the two Emperors.

The Vossische Zeitung andith© Kolnische Zeitung
contain the announcement that the lEmperor of
Austria had ordered the immediate mobiliastion of
the whole army, and the troops are being moved
on Galicia and Italy.

GROUSE SHOO TIN -•-4).1"..8N1NG DAY.

The dawn of the long-anticipated 12th of August
brought with it no diminution of that deep and exciting
interest which is invariably experienced by the lovers of
amuse shooting, and the pleasures and excitement of the
day were entered into with more than usual spirit.
Bradfield Moors had a larger amount of coveys than
many parties had been induced to expect. The weather
in the morning was favourable, and the birds were found
to be numerous and remarkably strong on the wing. In
the early part of the day:the coveys laid su wed that
heavy bags were confidently expected. About noon, how-
ever, indications of a change were visible. Thunder was
heard in the distance, and shortly afterwards the rain de-
scended in torrents, and continued with slight interrnis•
sion till the approach of evening—a circumstance which
in this as well as all other similar cases had the effect
of making the coveys very wild, without packing. Pre-
viously, however, some of the " old hands" had made
short work with the matter, and, considering the length
of time, were successful. Had it continued favourable
till sunset, remarkably heavy bags would have been se-
cured. As it was, they were satisfactory. R. F. Hall.
Healey Hall, had the largest, viz., .244 brace, 181
brace of which were brouebt down before 12 o'clock
20 brace fell to the lot of W. Carr, Esq., of Wads, and
144 brace to J. Milward, Esq., St. James's Cottage,
Doncaster. Mr. Waterfall bagged 12 brace, and Mr.
J. Kirby 101. A Crimean hero—an officer of the gal•
lent 98'.11----made a good bag, but the exact number
could not be ascertained. On the moors in the neigh-
bourhood of Woodhead, Tburlstone, and Fiddler's
Green, the attendance was numerous. Here also the
coveys were found to be numeroue, amounting to be
tween three and four hundred. Unfortunately, how
ever, the weather was more unfavourable than on tht
Bradfield Moors, and became so showery that the bird,
were very wild, and extremely difficu:t to approach.
Some parties, however, well acquautte4, with their pecu
liar habits, succeeded in securing as many as 12 or 14
brace, but others were unable to bag more than one
or
two. But this check was only calculated to rouse acti•
vity and energy for the succeding clays. On the whole,
the lovers of grouse shooting, considering all cireuni•
stances, have reason to be satisfie:), especially when the 3,

MILITARY SWINDCERS.

The practice has become so prevalent of late amongst
several young officers at the garrison of giving fictitious
bills to their tradesmen in payment, that the command-
ant (Col. Jefferies) has fou,:d it necessary to caution the
public through our co urnus, and those of our contempo-
raries, never to take any of them in exchange for goods or
cash without first ascertaining from their bankers or army
agents whether there were any balance in hand to meet
them. The complaints to the colonel of this practice
Were of almost daily occurrence, several tradesmen in
Newport, Portsmouth, and Southampton, having bean
fleeced within these few weeks past of cash and goods to
a very considerable amount by some who Were cre-
dited with necessaries or luxuries, and often with both, to
a very large amount, on the strength of their names or
title, but who—not content with obtaining the goods for
the mere trouble of sending for them—have in many in-
stances given bills on their agents for much larger
amounts, and drawing the overplus in hard sovereigns
(for a present supply of pocket-money) from the unsus-
pecting dupes, who were only awakened from their
pleasing reverie of "getting paid their accounts" by a
postal announce►nent the next day with the highly disap-
pointing appendage, "no effects I" We understand that
two of these scamps have been allowed to retire from her
Majesty's service without getting back the price of their
commissions, in order to avoid criminal proceedings,
whilst others have been placed under arrest by the com-
mandant, who, we find, goes with us most cordially in
the opinion that such a course of proceeding is neither
more nor less than downright swindling, and should be
punished "as the law directs." We should like to!see one
of these swindlers at the barof public justice, in order to
shame the rest.—Hampshire Independent.

In the United States large quantities of wheat and flour
have lately changed hands on English account.
Up to our markets last week the arrivals of home-grown
produce wore small. From abroad we received 30,680 qrs.
of wheat, 11,360 barley, 24,029 oats, 1,090 beans, 2;245
peas, 4,531 seeds, 50 sacks and 41,973 barrels of flour.
A very limited supply of English wheat was received
fresh up to our market today, coastwise and by land car-
riage. Owing to the prevailing changeable weather, we
had a much better feeling in the demand for all kinds, and
prices advanced, compared with Monday last, from is to
23 per quarter. A few samples of new wheat were received
from Essex. The quality was very fine, and the prices
ranged from 80a to 82s per quarter. Very little wheat has
as yet been carted in the home counties.

Although the show of foreign wheat was extetisive,
there was a slight improvement in the demand, and late
rates were fully supported.

In floating cargoes of grain next to nothing was doing,
New barley sold readily, A 48s to 503 por quarter. Old
parcels were steady, at full currencies.

The amount of business doing in malt was comparatively
small, at about stationary prices.
Oats were in moderate supply and fair request, at last

week'a currency.

The show of beaus was limited, and most kinds were
steady, at late rates.

For peas we had only a moderate inqairy. Prkces, how•
ever, were supported.

The flour trade was steady, and country marks wore
rather dearer. A large quantity of inferior American
flour was on sale.

HAMBURG.

HAMBURG, AUG. 14.
A difficulty has arisen among the directors of
the Great North of Germany Banking Company of
our city, not how they can manage to raise the
needful capital to carry out their scheme, but,
from among the extremely numerous applicants for
shares, how they shall make the selection of tem-
porary proprietors of such shares so as to render to
each applicant even the smallest allotment. This
will be no easy matter for them to accomplish, so
as to avoid giving the " cold shoulder" to some of
their very best friends even ; for the fair division
of 40,000 shares among applicants who have, in
reality, demanded to the extent of 40,000,000
shares, with a capital sul4scribed to the enormous
amount of 2,000 millions of marks banco, will
vastly puzzle them. We must wait patiently the
result of their determination in this respect, but
certain it is, that subscriptions to the amount of
2,000 millions have been received by the directors,
on which the deposit of 10 per cent. is paid into
their hands, and security given in most instances
for as many more instalments as may be required
to be paid up.

THE CRYSTAL PALACE.

The whole system of waterworks at the Crystal Palace
was again displayed on Saturday. The weather was upon
the whole favourable, though not all that could be wished,
there being a little too much wind, and a total absence
of sunlight, upon which, with calm, the exhibition de-
pends for its full effect. Some 9,000 people were pre-
sent to witness the spectacle, a small number compared
with that which it attracted on previous occasions, but
attributable to the almost complete abandonment of
London at this year by persons with means and leisure
at their command. Fortunately, just as the display
began, the wind, which was from tne N.E., and cold,
slightly abated, and, but for the want of sunlight, we do
not know that it was ever seen to greater advantage.
The grand fountains in the lower basins rushed upwards
to almost their full altitude before theyb were broken into
spray, and the innumerable jets d eau with which they
are surrounded played throughout with the greatest
vigour in all their beauty and diversity of design. The
display commenced at half-past 4 o'clock and lasted half.
an-hour. The greater part of the company, as usual,
witnessed it
.from the more elevated portions of the pla-
teau separating the lower basins from the part of the
grounds assigntd to the exhibili m of the extinct animals,
and from the adjacent terraces and sloping banks, and
nothing seemed to detract from their enjoyment but the
cold wind into which the summer heat of the previous
part of the day suddenly subsided.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Fane.)
IN RE PEMBLE BROWNE.

This bankrupt was described as of Grosvenor-street,
Bond-street, and formerly in partnership with John Ed-
win Browne, at Melbourne and Victoria, Australia, as
merchants, &c., and since his return to England, in
July, 1854, had been in partnership with a person named
Walsh, but that partnership was broken off. The bank-
rupt bad dissolved partnership with his brother, whom
he left to carry on the business in Australia- His pri-
vate debts in England are small, and his bankruptcy was
occasioned by his joint liability in the firm to the
amount of about; 1,7801. The creditors were satisfied
with the accounts filed, and bankrupt accordingly passed
his examination, and a day was appointed for the certi•
ficate meeting.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

CAUTION TO CARMEN.—Thomas Avery, a carman in
the employ of Mr. Cheal,' carrier to her Majesty, was
brought before Mr. Beadon, charged with being drunk
and furiously driving a horse and cart. He was also
charged with assaulting Police-constable O'Brien, 196 C,
and James Parry, hackney-carriage attendant, No. 39,
while in the execution of their duty.
O'Brien stated that on Saturday evening he was on
duty in St. James's-street, when his attention was called
to the defendant, who was driving a horse and cart at a
furious rate down the street. ' Witness endeavoured to
stop him, but the defendant flogged the horse and drove
faster, and would have got away had not one of the
wheels come off the cart and flung the prisoner out.
Witness, perceiving him to be in liquor, took him into
custody, when he (defendant) struck him and knocked off
his hat. Parry, the attendant at the cab-stand, came to
his assistance, and after a deal of trouble the defendant
was eventually lodged in the station-house.
Parry corroborated the evidence of last witness, and
added that the prisoner struck him (Parry) several times
when on the way to the station.

The prisoner, in defence, said he had only three pints
of beer on his way from Windsor, but as his head could
not stand the drink it overcame him.

Mr. Beadon said that had nothing to do with his gdpia,.:
full gallop down the street, to the danger of the public,
and then assaulting the officer who attempted to stop
his, mad career. As a caution to him for the future, he
(Yin Beadon) should fine him 40s. or one month for furi-
ous driving, and 403. or one month for the assault on
the officer.

ROBBERY 13Y THIMBLE RIGGERS.—.Robert Costello,
a man well known at races and fairs as the King of the
Thimble riggers, from-the expert manner in which he
changes the pea, was brought before Mr. Seeker, for
further examination, charged with stealing a 51. Bins of
Ergland note from the peirson of Philip Rives, a Jersey
sailor.

Mr. M'Oubrey, of the northern circuit, ir4ructed by
Mr. Howe, attended on behalf of the prisoner.
It appeared from the evidence given on a former ocoa.
siion, that on Wednesday morning, the 6th inst., the prc-
secutor and two other sailors left their ship at Limo-
house in a cab for the purpose of proceeding to Jersey,
by the South-Western Railway. Being too early for the
train they all went to a cook shop opposite the Victoria
Theatreand partook of refreshments. 0 n leaving the house
they were accosted by a yank man who asked them to
partake of a glass of ale with hire, when they all entered
a beer-shop in Webber-skeet. While sitting there
drinking the prisoner came in, and offered the two
breast-pins for sale, which they declined to purchase.
The prisoner 'then took out three thimbles and a pea,
which he kept shifting about, telling them that they
should have the pin for nothing if they could tell him
which thimble the pea was under. Some of the men
sitting there were making bets, and, thinking that be
might win something, he agreed to bet, and put his
hand in his fob-pocket to get at his money. He bad
that pocket a 51. Bank of England note, a half-
crown piece, and some gold. In endeavouring to get
at the half-crown the note came partially out of his
pocket, when the prisoner ran up to him and snatched

it from him, and ran away with it... On the Friday
afterwards prosecutor saw the prisoner enter the
Hit-or-Miss beer-shop, in the Waterloo-road, when
he told a police-constable, and they entered that
house and found the prisoner secreted up4tairs
There were several men with 'the prisoner,
and as some of them ara suppostd to be hi league with
him, Mr. Seeker remanded himilintil to-day to give the
cacer.(est?p, 65 L) an oppofitunity of finding them.
The prosecutor was also bound over to attend. When
the case was called on,

Weston said that the prosecutor was not in
attendance, and ho understood that he had, since the
last examination, sailed to Australia.
Mr. Seeker asked whether there wag any witness who
saw the prisoner snatch the note ?
Weston replied in the negative.

Mr. M'Oubray said that the prosecutor bad made a
mistake in his man ; that was the reason he was not in
attendance. •Rad he been present he should have been
able to show the prisoner's innocence.
Mr. Seeker said that as there was no prosecutor in the
case the prisoner must be discharged.

THREE MEN SUFFOCATED IN A WELL—On Thursday
a lamentable accident occurred on the farm premises of
Mr. Coulton, of Armin, near Goole, Yorkshire. On the
premises is a well used for the purpose of watering cattle,
and this having become nearly exhausted it was neces-
sary to have it cleaned out. Fur that purpose Mr. Coul-
ton and his foreman had opened the well, and the latter
had descended by a ladder to the bottom. He was in
the act of dipping a bucket into the water, when Mr.
C Algot] observed him to fall over. Mr. Coulton irnme•
diately vent down to his assistance, wid bad just seized
him by the collar when he ei as overpowered by the foul
air in the well and fell over. The cries of the women
who were at the top of the well attracted the attention
of a man known as "Bus Joe," and be at once descended
the well, but had no sooner done so than he shared the
fate of the preceding two. A fourth man now wt 111;
down the well with a rope round his body, and he suc-
ceeded in fastening another rope to two of the sufferers,
who were drawn up, but life was extinct. The third
man, also dead, was afterwards got out by a fifth man,
the man who had rescued the other two being too ex- ,
hausted to descend the well a second time.
