The market for the English Securities is unsettled
;o-day, and the tone rather flat, with more sellers
than buyers. In addition to the return of unfa-
vourable weather, the intelligence from the conti-
nent respecting the probability of fresh complica-
tions with regard to the Italian question, and the
proximate renewal of hostilities between Austria
and Piedmont, is of a very discouraging character.
There has also been a large sale of stock, and
Consols are now 92 for money,': and 921 93 for
account. The New 3 per Cents. and the Reduced

103,1 ; Exchequer Bills are at ls. to 48. prem.
In the Foreign Stock Market scarcely any
business has been recorded, prices are tolerably
firm. Turkish 6 per Cents. are 731 to 741 ; ditto

THE VOLUNTEER MOVEMENT.

This day (Saturday) the London Rifle Brigade,
numbering about 1,000 men, will march to South-
gate-park, for parade, in review order, on the invi-
tation of Mr. Sugden, of Oak-lodge, an honorary
member of the corps, who has placed his fine grounds,
about 200 acres in extent, at their disposal for a
field-day, and generously offered to afford hospi-
tality to the whole of his comrades. Several of the
metropolitan corps have been invited, and are ex-
pected to join the Brigade on the occasion, and the
demonstration promises to be an interesting one,
if the weather be auspicious.
The Civil Service Rifle Brigade will proceed this
afternoon to Fox Warren, near Cobham, Surrey,
for skirmishing practice and field manoeuvres.
The various Essex corps continue to make steady
progress. The Rochford Company was reviewed on
Tuesday by Major-General Wood, commandant of
the camp at Colchester, and Lieut.-Colonel Ibbet-
son, Assistant-1 nspector of Volunteers. Mr. Cham-
pion Russell, of Upminster, has been elected
captain of the Royal Havering Corps, in the room
of Captain Hamilton, whose resignation is shortly
to be presented to the Secretary-at-War. The
Colchester Corps will compete for a silver cup
offered by Mr. J. Gurdon Rebow, of Wivenhoe-
park, on Thursday, Sept. 6. It is expected that
one or two other prizes will also be subscribed for
on the occasion. An excellent range for the Tend-
ring Hundred Corps has been selected at Weeley,
and has received official approval. Mr. H. Sewell
has been chosen captain of the Plaistow Corps,
Mr. F. Robinson lieutenant, and Mr. J. Bell ensign.
The Dunmow Corps will have a fete on Wednesday
in the grounds of their commandant, Lieutenant J.
Maryon Wilson, Fitz John's, Great Caufield. The
organisation of the Ongar Corps is proceeding ; the
total amount received in donations is 4001., and 601.
has been promised annually. The number of effi-
cient members obtained is 40, and it is expected
that this total will be increased to 60.

The Ist Kent Artillery Volunteers (Gravesend)
assembled on Wednesday at the Terrace Pier, at 2
o'clock, for the purpose of marching to the Cricket-
ground, where they were inspected by Viscount
Sydney, lord-lieutenant of the county of Kent.
His lordship arrived on the ground at about half-
past three, accompanied by the Earl of Darnley,
when tke volunteers performed the usual field
movements of marching past in slow and quick
time, &c., and fired five rounds of blank cartridge.
They then, headed by their band, proceeded to the
New Tavern Fort, where the men were exercised
in the heavy gun drill. Viscount Sydney said that
he was highly gratified at the appearance of the
corps, and more particularly with their field move-
' meats.

LAlLbir- - T
I NEkV,,

The following telegrams have been received at
Mr. Reuter's office :

NAPLES, AUG. 16, (via TURIN).
Fifteen hundred Garibaldians have disembarked
in Calabria, and joined two thousand insurgents
who had withdrawn to the mountains.

The preparations for the defence of Naples are
being continued.

PARIS, AUG. 18.
The Moniteus• publishes a decree abolishing the
duties on capillaire.

Another decree abolishes the compensation
duties, established by a decree of February last, on
cushions made of cloth, and trimmings in silk,
wool, and ganduras.

Another decree reduces the duties on alcoholic
liquors to Gf. 25c. per hectolitre.

VIENNA, AUG. 18,

The Great Powers, in conformity with the wish
of the English Cabinet, have agreed to discontinue
all further negotiations for including Spain in the
number of the Great Powers.

The committee of 21 members of the Reichsrath,
acknowledging the justice of the reasons adduced
in the memorandum of the Archduke Maximilian

against the reduction of the Austrian navy, pro-
posed by the Minister of Finance, has unanimously
decided that the Marine Budget may be increased
by 1,000,000 florins.

PARIS, AUG. 17.

The Constitutionnel publishes a letter from Turin,
bearing the signature of M. Grandguillot, com-
mencing as follows

" Italy is now entering the most critical and
most lecisive period of her regeneration. Hence-
forth she stakes on a single card either her ruin or
her salvation. Engaged as she is in the path upon
which she has been thrown by the expedition of
Garibaldi, Italy will within two months be either
free and completely independent, or Austria will
again reign, and this time from Messina to Turin."

The letter then details the course of past events,
and states that the negotiations between Naples and
Piedmont were unsuccessful by reason of Garibaldi's
refusal to arrest his course, and on account of the
enthusiasm prevailing throughout Italy having
paralysed the measures which Piedmont might
otherwise have taken to prevent further complica-
tions.

The Patrie of this evening contains the following
despatch, dated Naples, 16th inst. :

" Tranquillity prevails in the city.
" Garibaldi is still reconnoitring the Neapolitan

littoral.

" Tranquillity still prevails in Calabria and the

Abruzzi."

BEYROUT, AUG. 5 (via MARSEILLES

Syria is tranquil, but in the environs of Damas-
cus attempts against the lives and property of the
Christians are of daily occurrence.

THE HAGUE, AUG. 17

The project of law respecting the railways has
been adopted by the First Chamber by 34 against

5 votes.

SUSPECTED MURDER AT STEPNEY.

Yesterday, shortly after 12 o'clock, a suspicious
discovery was made at No. 9, Grove-road, Stepney,
a short distance from the Tower Hamlets Cemetery,
Bow-road. It appears that the deceased was a
widow lady named Mary Emsley, aged about 70,
who up to the time of her death was in possession
of considerable landed property, situated at Strat-
ford, Bow, Bethnal-green, Victoria-park, and other
parts at the east end of the metropolis. She had,
it is said, a number of agents and collectors who
I were carrying her large sums weekly, arising from
rents and other property, which she had held since
the death of her husband, a large contractor and
brickmaker, well known at that part of London for
his eccentric habits. The deceased had not been
seen by the neighbours for some days, and a collec-
tor, named W. T. Emms, sent his son as far back
as Tuesday last for two brass taps, which he was to
put on to water-butts at two of her houses. On
each day since Emms had repeatedly sent and:called,
but though he knocked on each occasion loudly at
the door, no one answered. The impression was
that the deceased had gone out, as the garden gate
was left unlocked. Yesterday, when Emms went,
he had his suspicions aroused that all was not right,
and he accordingly communicated with Mr. Rose,
the deceased's solicitor, of Change•alley, who with
Mr. Whittaker and another gentleman named Faith
proceeded to the house in company with a police
constable. They could not make any one hear, and
proceeded through the adjoining premises to the
backgarden, where they climbed the wall and made
an entry at the back door. They searched the
lower part of the house, which seemed in conside-
rable confusion, and upon reaching one of the rooms
on the second floor he discovered the deceased lying
dead with the top part of her head forced in. There
was a large wound of the scalp, and blood had
flowed copiously from the injury which had been
inflicted, apparently by some hard substance, or life
preserver. The floor was besmeared with blood,
and it is supposed that the deceased had been killed
by some burglars who had entered the premises to
get her cash. The deceased kept large sums in the
house, although she had an account with one of the
City banks. Inspectors Ketrissey and Haynes,
of the K division, proceeded to the house and made
a minute search, and it is supposed that a great
amount of property has been removed. The deceased
lived entirely alone, having no servants, but is said
to have been of miserly habits, and dirty and intem-
perate. Last evening Mr. Stevens, the Coroner's
officer for the district of Stepney, took charge of
the body for the official investigation before the
Coroner (Mr. Humphreys), but the inquest is net
yet appointed. A number of police constables have
been seat out from Arbour-square and Bow stations,
and late last right no clue to the guilty parties had
been obtained. The deceased was, it is said, in the
receipt of an income from her property amounting
to about £5,000 per annum.

a short distance from the Tower Hamlets Cemetery,
Bow-road. It appears that the deceased was a
widow lady named Mary Emsley, aged about 70,
who up to the time of her death was in possession
of considerable landed property, situated at Strat-
ford, Bow, Bethnal-green, Victoria-park, and other
parts at the east end of the metropolis. She had,
it is said, a number of agents and collectors who
were carrying her large sums weekly, arising from
rents and other property, which she had held since
the death of her husband, a large contractor and
brickmaker, well known at that part of London for
his eccentric habits. The deceased had not been
seen by the neighbours for some days, and a collec-
tor, named W. T. Emms, sent his son as far back
as Tuesday last for two brass taps, which he was to
put on to water-butts at two of her houses. On
each day since Emms had repeatedly sent an dyalled,
but though he knocked on each occasion loudly at
the door, no one answered. The impression was
that the deceased had gone out, as the garden gate
was left unlocked. Yesterday, when Emms went,
he had his suspicions aroused that all was not right,
and he accordingly communicated with Mr. Rose,
the deceased's solicitor, of Change•alley, who with
Mr. Whittaker and another gentleman named Faith
proceeded to the house in company with a police
constable. They could not make any one hear, and
proceeded through the adjoining premises to the
backgarden, where they climbed the wall and made
an entry at the back door. They searched the
lower part of the house, which seemed in conside-
rable confusion, and upon reaching one of the rooms
on the second floor he discovered the deceased lying
dead with the top part of her head forced in. There
was a large wound of the scalp, and blood bad
flowed copiously from the injury which had been
inflicted, apparently by some hard substance, or life
preserver. The floor was besmeared with blood,
and it is supposed that the deceased had been killed
by some burglars who had entered the premises to
get her cash. The deceased kept large sums in the
house, although she had an account with one of the
City banks. Inspectors Kerrissey and Haynes,
of the K division, proceeded to the house and made
a minute search, and it is supposed that a great
amount of property has been removed. The deceased
lived entirely alone, having no servants, but is said
to have been of miserly habits, and dirty and intem-
perate. Last evening Mr. Stevens, the Coroner's
officer for the district of Stepney, took charge of
the body for the official investigation before the
Coroner (Mr. Humphreys), but the inquest is not
yet appointed. A number of police constables have
been sent out from Arbour-square and Bow stations,
and late last night no clue to the guilty parties had
been obtained. The deceased was, it is said, in the
receipt of an income from her property amounting
to about £5,000 per annum.

TILE EAST.

The Levant Herald of the Bth inst. states that
the Turkish Government, on the representation of
Fuad Pasha, has determined on replacing all the
officers of the army of Arabistan by others from
the army of Anatolia. Those who have been im-
plicated in late events will not be included in
this arrangement, but be dealt with separately.
Kourschid'Pasha, the late Governor of Beyrout,
was placed in arrest, it appears, on the express de-
mand of Admiral Martin. Kourschid arrived at
Constantinople on the 6th, by the Austrian Lloyd's
steamer Stamboul. That he has been sent back to
Beyrout, to be tried with Ahmet Pasha, has been
already announced. Two of Kourschid's subor-
dinate officers, his Kehaya, and Cavas-Bashi, are
both in prison at Beyrout. From the fact that
they are kept in irons, it would seem that the dis-
placed Turkish officials have less influence in the
province than they would be able to command at
Constantinople.

Ahmet Pasha was the Commander-in-Chief of the
Army of Arabistan, and Governor-General of Da-
mascus. Before being sent back to Beyrout, for
trial, he was, according to an order from the Sul-
tan, publicly degraded from his rank in the great
square of the Seraskeriat. A large body of troops
and civil functionaries were assembled on the ground
to witness the ceremony of degradation, which was
performed with all the humiliating precision usual
on such occasions. The Imperial order having been
read aloud, the brass feztbutton, epaulets, and sword
of the degraded General were roughly taken
from him,
and his deprivation of all rank and
honours proclaimed to the spectators. He was then
marched back to his prison, and the troops with-
arters. This well•deserved act of

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

ASSAULT ON A COMPOSITOR, AND FALSE ACCUSATION.
—Charles Perkins, a house decorator, living at the Black
Dog public-house, Markham-square, Chelsea, was charged
with assaulting John B. Weaver, of 80, Gloucester-street,
Cambridge-heath, a compositor.
The complainant said he was passing along Cranhourne •
street on the previous evening, having just left his employ,
when the defendant, who was far fro►n sober, seised him by
the collar, and said he was one of the persons who had
robbed him in a public honse. He told him he was entirely
mistaken; but ho persisted in the statement, got a large
erowd round him, and detained him for 10 minutes, and on
a constable, Smith, 72 C, conking up, he gave the defendant
into custody.

The defendant said he was not sober at the time, but
somebody had robbed him in the public house.

Mr. Bingham, in fining the defendant 205., said he
would recommend him to keep sober for the future, or, at
all events, not to give innocent persons into custody, as he
had not only kept the complainant a prisoner inthe streets,
but disgraced him also.
A NICE LODGER.—Emma Taylor, of 49, Well-street,
Middlesex Hospital, was charged on a warrant by
0' Shaughnessy, one of the warrant-officers, with threaten-
ing the life of Mrs. Mary Ann Wilson, wife of Mr. Wilson,
surgeon.

It appears that Mr. Wilson, who is in s very delicate
state of health, has only lately taken the house, the defen-
dant being at the time a lodger, and that she had threatened
the life of Mrs. Wilson, and also to sot the house on fire.
The defendant was ordered to leave the house this day,
and her husband's security was taken for her future good
behaviour.

published anew illustrated pamphlet on watches (free by ps•S
for two ;stamps). It should be read by all who are abotlS
buying a watch, as it contains prices and important informs'
tion as to—What watch to buy ! where to buy it 1 and how W
use it!

[ADVERTIBEMENT.3—Notice.—In consequence of Mesita-
Lewes and Morton having just oommenoed 1860 with opposi-
tion similar to that which they previously advanced, and wish•
ing to do those gentlemen every justice, Mr. Thorley is induced
to enlarge his coming pamphlet, making it 64 pages instead
of 32-- showing beyond doubt that their observations on th•
so-called "Concentrated Cattle Food," and so-called "feeding
statistics," are without foundation ; that the ttothamsted
experiment was not made with his food, and consequent!,
that this complete failure must either be through mismanage'
ment or from buying the Condiment at the wrong shop. The
first impression of One Hundred Thousand Copies will be
ready about the first day of March, and may be had post free
on receipt of Three Stamps, on application to Joseph Thorley,
the Inventor and sole Proprietor of " Thorley's Food for
Cattle," 77, Newgate-street, Londen ; 21, Broadway, Nei/

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.

A fair average supply of beasts, both as to number and
quality, was on offer in to; day's market. All breeds met a
slow :inquiry ; nevertheless, compared with Monday, no
change took place in the quotations. The show of sheep
was moderitte, and the mutton trade ruled inactive, at the
late advance in prices. Prime swell calves sold readily—
other descriptions of veal slowly, on former terms. Pigs
were in fair request ; but mulch cows were very dull.
