SCULLERS' RACE FOR £lOO.
A scullers' race for £5O a-sideVas rowed on Saturday
afternoon, over theruMBl7l7ltrinb-urse, between Benjantin
Edwards, of the Tower, and D. Coombes, of Horselydown,
and notwithstanding the dismal state of the weather was
largely attended. The men are about the same age, and both
watermen, but there is a great disparity in their height
and weight, Edwards weighing considerably over 11 stone,
while his opponent is well under nine stone, and stands
four or five inches lower. Each has attained consider-
able notoriety, Coombes having won Doggett's Coat and
Badge, and figured well in other matches; while Ed-
wards' principal victory has been over Toni Pocock, and
the fact of his having displayed great improvement within
the last twelvemonth, caused his friends to lay 2 and 3
to lon him freely. Citizen B accompanied and conveyed
the umpires, Mr. Wilcox for Edwards, and J. A. Cal in for
Coombes; Mr. C. Bush being referee. Edwards won the
station, but did not get the load, although he was soon
alongside his man. They then rowed a capital race to the
London Boat-house, where Coombes spurted half a length
ahead, and presently they were indistinctly observed
fouling in the log. Coombes got away to the Crab Tree,
where they fouled again, and after this they were all over
the river, fouling repeatedly, and although Coombes
maintained his lead to the end, on the umpires appealing
to the referee, that functionary gave the race to Edwards,
with good reason.

THE WAR IN PARAGLAY.

The news from the Brazils and the seat of war in
Paraguay, brought by the French packet via Bor-
deaux, are of the greatest importance, not only to
the belligerents themselves, but to the commercial
world at large, and particularly so to England, who
has so vast an amount of capital invested in these

countries.
The finances of the Allies, particularly Brazil
have suffered to an enormous extent through this
long-protracted war, which as yet has brought them
no laurels. According to a speech made by one of
the Brazilian Deputies in the Chambers at Rio,
Senator Silveira da Motta, voting for an issue of
of 145 millions of paper money, said :—" I vote for
the proposition of the noble Minister. I vote for
this pest of paper money. I vote for the emission
of 145 millions, and if the Minister asks for more
ir will still vote for more. This war, this frightful
caia,-21ity, which could so easily have been avoided,
must ap2ear in history followed by all its misfor-
tunes, like an immense funeral cortege." And
this war is far from 'Wing ended. We do not
believe there is in the whole world a country
with so scant a population ao Brazil which has such
an enormous amount of paper money in circulation,
amounting now to the immense sum of five hundred
millions. The news by the French mail are a series
-up to the latest
of military operations, which have
date ended in a fatal defeat of the Allies and the
complete destruction of all their Acores, provisions,
barracks, and magazines.
On the 29th of October last the bsrazilians sent a
force of nearly 5,000 men, infantry aod cavalry, to
take possession of a large Paragua Yan pasture

TALLOW.

MARK LANE.

The supplies of wheat on sale in the leading country
markets held on Saturday wore very moderate. Fine dry
samples sold steadily, at an advance in the quotations of
Is. :per quarter, and the value of other kinds was well
supported. In spring corn and flour about an average
business was doing, on former terms.
On the Continent produce generally has ruled about
stationary. In America both wheat and flour have com-
manded very full rates.
In imports into London last week were: —30,409 quar-
ters of wheat, 441 barley, 41,934 oats, 678 beans, 12,822
deas, 638 tares, 5,211 linseed, 12,515 rapeseed, 55 sundries,
284 sacks and 12,373 barrels of flour.

18G7,

The quantity of English wheat received up to our mar-
ket to-day, coastwise and by land carriage, was limited
and in very middling condition. Owing to their scarcity
really fine samples sold at an advance in the quotations,
compared with this day se'nnight, of is per quarter.
Damp qualities, however, moved off slowly at late rates.
Only a retail business was passing in-foreign wheat ;
nevertheless last week's currency was well supported. The
supply was rather extensive.
Indian corn moved off slowly at last week's currency.
The flour trade was heavy at late rates.

Seeds and cakes were very inactive. In prices we have
no change to report.
Fine malting barley was scarce, and quite as dear as
last week. Grinding and distilling sorts maintained their
previous rates.
There was a fair sale for malt on former terms. The
supply was seasonably good.
. .

In oats about an average business was transacted at the
late decline in the quotations.
Beans were steady in price, but the demand for them
was by no means active.
The sale for peas was heavy. In prices, however, no
change took place.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SIR,—We deeply regret to state that an explosion
took place at our powder-mills, Faversham yester-
day, at 11 a.m., when a corning-house and press-
house (separated by two huge brick traverses, which
wero intended as an effective barrier to communi-
cation) blew up, and the unfortunate workmen
therein employed, to the number of 11, unhappily
lost their lives. These men were, in point of skill
and remuneration, at the head of that branch of our
works, and our sorrow for their loss is °lily less
than that of their afflicted families.

In the present state of public feeling we think it
proper to say that we have no reasonable suspicion
of anything felonious connected with the catas-
trophe ; we, like others engaged in dangerous
trade s, have had hints and warnings of mischief,
and have endeavoured by extra precautions and
watching to provide against it. We hope that sad
as this event is, the coincidence of the explosion
with these anxieties and fears will prove to be a
coincidence and nothing more.
We did not lose a moment in communicating with
the authorities at the Home-office for their infor-
mation and guidance. We are, sir, your obedient

servant,

Fresh up from our own grazing disiricts, the receipts
of beasts were rather rather limited, but the general qua-
lity of the stock was good. The demand for all breeds
ruled steady, at an advance in the quotations, compared
with Monday last, of 2d per 81bs. The best Scots and
crosses sold at os 2d per Blbs, and a good clearance was
effected.

From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton-
shire we received about 1,000 short horns, &c., from Nor-
folk and other parts of England 900 various breeds, from
Scotland 193 Scots andcrosses, and from Ireland 210 oxen
cows, &c.

We were tolerably well, but not to say heavily, sup-
plied with sheep for the season. Prime Downs and half-
brads moved off slowly, at very full prices. A few pens
realised 5s 2d per 81bs, but the general top quotation was
53 per 81bs. Long-wooled sheep were a slow inquiry, but
not cheaper.
The sale for calves was very inactive, at about sta-
tionary prices, viz., from 4s 4d to 5s 4d per 81bs. The sup-
ply was rather limited.
Pigs commanded very little attention. Prices, however,
were fairly supported.

The Price of Gold.

f: The quotation of gold at Paris is about at par, and
the short exchange on London is 251. 22,:e. per £1 sterling.
On comparing these rates with the English Mint price ct
£3 lie. lOid. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that
gold is about 2-.oths per cent. dearer in London than in
Paris.

The course of exchange at New York on London for bills
at 60 days' sight is about lOn per cent. At this rate there
is no profit on the importation of gold from the United
States, .

LONDON, WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 18,
_1867.

Speeches from Members of Parliament are now
the order of the day ; and it is a curious and in-
teresting task to notice the difference between them
and the various views expressed by the several
speakers. Just now we have before us two very
dissimilar speeches, one delivered by Mr. NEWDE-
GATE and the other by Mr. FOSTER. The former
availed himself of the opportunity afforded by the
annual meeting of the Warwickshire Agricultural
Society to pass some remarks upon public affairs.
Ile observed that we had had one fact called to
ruind during the discussions that took place in the
Reform Bill, and that was that the county members
of England were not members of the counties only.
For a period of forty years Mr. NEWDEGATE said
that he had had the honour of representing in
some degree the town of Birmingham, and in point
of fact the county members were the only ones who
could claim to be the representatives of the whole
community of the district which they represented.
Now that it is so much the fashion in certain quar-
ters to decry the county representatives, and
put such stress upon the boroughs being the

GUILDIIALL.

A man named William Rowley, and his son, a
lad about 15, were charged with forgery.
Henry Swabe, a tobacconist, 164, Strand, said
that on the 20th August last, the younger pri-
soner brought him a letter, purporting to
come from Mr. Smythe, a retired publican,
residing in Grove-street, South Hackney, re-
questing him to give to him two descriptions of
cigars to the amount of £6 18S. The letter contained
a cheque for the amount, drawn on the London
and County Bank. He sent a boy with the prisoner,
and they went in an omnibus as far as Victoria-road,
when they got out, and he gave the prisoner one of
the parcels of cigars to carry, while he took the
other himself. When they reached the residence
of Mr. Smythe the boy gave the prisoner the other
parcel, and returned. He paid the cheque into the
London and Westminster Bank, but it was returned
to him marked "No account." The cheque was
crossed, which was the reason he did not pay it into
the London and County Bank.
Mr. Abel Smythe said that he had known the
elder prisoner, who was his brother-in-law, for 15
years. He had received letters from him, and iden-
tified the letter produced as being in his hand-
writing.

After some further evidence the prisoners were
remanded until Thursday next for the production of
additional evidence. It appeared that the elder
prisoner had been convicted- three- times, and there
was another charge against both prisoners, which
was postponed in the absence of a material witness.

7HE COLLISION ON 7HE RIVER.

The inquest on Sergeant Barry was resumed this
morning.
John Keddy said he was Captain of the Went-
worth, but Mr. Allen, Trinity pilot, was in charge
of her all the day of the collision. If the Metis
had continued the course they first saw her taking
she would have cleared the Wentworth. The
witness gave some practical evidence as to the
rules governing ships' courses.

Mr. Jackson, Chairman of the Woolwich Steam
Packet Company, was examined, and also Thos.
Blackland, who considered that if the Metis had
gone to the north she could have cleared the Went-
worth.

The inquiry is still proceeding, ,and is likely to be
very protracted.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

EXTRAORDINARY CONDUCT IN A CHAPEL.—
Mary Nagle, described as a lodging-house keeper,
of No. 1, Fitzroy Market, was charged before Mr.
Tyrwhitt with being drunk and disorderly at the
Roman Catholic Chapel, Ogle-street, Marylebone,
to the annoyance of the congregation.
The Rev. David Nicols said—Yesterday, just after
the evening service, the prisoner came into the
chapel and called out for the priest, saying
that she had a charge to make against him,
and that she would expose him before the whole
congregation. I went up to her and asked her to
sit down and hold her tongue, but she refused, and
made such a disturbance that I was obliged to call
upon two persons to put her out of the place.
Mr. Tyrwhitt—Was she drunk ?
Witness—She was considerably in liquor.
Mr. Tyrwhitt—Was the service over ?
Witness—lt was just over, but the whole congre-
gation was there.

Matthew Morris, of No. 14, Grafton-street, said
—Just as the service was over the prisoner walked
up to the altar in a very excited state, and called
out at the top of her voice to the priest. I tried to
appease her, but could not, and then requested her to
go out, but she refused to do so, stating that it was
a public church. The Rev. Mr. Nicols requested
me to assist in putting her out, and I did so, when
she made a grasp at my face and scratched me.
Police-constable Robert Pitt, 171 E, said—l was
fetched to the chapel last night, and found the pri-
soner at the door, and three persons, including the
two witnesses, holding her. The prisoner had been
drinking, was very much excited, ani used most
abominable language.
Mr. Tyrwhitt—What was it all about ?
Constable—l believe there is some grievance be-
tween her and the authorities of the chapel.

Prisoner—l did not go to insult the gentleman in
court. The priest had scandalised the character of
my daughter, aged 18, who could not hold up her
head in consequence, and I can get no satisfaction.
I have been to Lincoln's-inn-fields, and they sent
me elsewhere. I went to the priest's house, but the
housekeeper always denies him, and so I thought I
would go to the chapel as I might meet him there,
intending to scandalise him as he had done my child.
Mr. Tyrwhitt—You will have to pay 108. for
being drunk and disorderly.
