BIRTHDAY OF BIS ROYAL. HIGHNESS

THE PRINCE CONSORT.

Yesterday was the birthday of bis Royal Highness the
Prince Consort, which was celebrated by the usual ob-
servances. The tradespeople of his royal highness, as
customary on the anniversary, illuminated their respective
residences.

At Windsor the bells of the Chapel Royal and St. John's
Church sent forth merry peals throughout the day. At
noon a royal salute was fired in the Long Walk by the royal
bombardier. There was also a royal salute fired from Fort
Belvidere in the Great Park, which was answered by the
Royal Adelaide frigate on Virginia Water. In the evening,
the mayor and corporation, with their friends, dined to-
gether at the Castle Hotel—his worship in the chair—in
celebration of the auspicious event, two royal bucks from
the Great Park and a handsome dessert from the royal
gardens being kindly supplied by command of her Majesty.
The wines were of the most choice description; and the din-
ner was served by Mr. Sheriff in his customary style of
excellence. The houses of the royal tradespeople were
illuminated in the evening.

than two additional
cases. It is now clearly established that the train had
not arrived at Round Oak station on its return from Wor-
cester when it separated; and that the coaches which divided
were properly attached with shackle and side eliaiw. There
is therefore no blame attribu'able to any of the subordinate
ofliciais of the company on that score; but important ques-
tions siil no doubt arise as to the sufficiency of those fasten-
ing., the strain to which they ought .to be submitted
on such an incline as that from Bret tell-lane to Round Oak,
and the amount of break power requisite for the working of
a line of railway where the gradient is 1 in 75. The in-
quiry has been adjourned for a week, during which time the
fullest investigation into these and all other questions tier.-

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.—AUG. 26.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Pane.)
IN RE E. LOW.
The bankrupt was the landlord of a tavern in Fleet-street,
known as " The Discussion Forum."
This-was an examination meeting. Mr. Goddard, for the
assignees, did not oppose.
The Commissioner—There are no assets.
Mr. Warrand, for the bankrupt, called the attention of
the Court to a surplus expected on property as held by a
creditor.
The Commissioner—The holder of that property is Mr.
low. What relation is he to the bankrupt ?
Mr. Warrand—A brother.
The Commissioner—And the two brothers between them
have contrived to get the property of the creditors?
judgment
which Warrand—Mr. Law took possession under a
which was eight years old.
The Commissioner—That does not improve the matter.
Credit was obtained, this judgment being pending. I. see
Mr. Low (the bankrupt's brother and creditor) describes
himself as a banker in Leicester-square. As no creditor in-
terferes the bankrupt may pass.

TURKEY.

We have received Constantinople journals and
letters to the 14th, via Trieste. The Ottoman Go-
vernment appears to have at last decided on adopting
a system of economy in every branch of the admi-
nistrative services, and important regulations are now
being drawn up on this matter. It is said to be in con-
templation to suppress a number of posts, the utility of
which is very doubtful, and which entail a very heavy
expense on the country. Among them is that of Grand
Master of the Artillery, which is now occupied by
Mehemet Ruchdi-Pacha, ex-Minister of War. The
direction of the artillery would then devolve on the
Minister of War, and the command of the forts on the
Bosphorus to the Grand Admiral and Minister of
Marine. Reforms in the diplomatic body are also
spoken of. The posts of ambassadors and ministers
plenipotentiary, except in one or two cases, will, it is
said, be done away with, and the Porte will only have
charges d'affaires at the courts of its allies. This
change is not, however, expected to take place until
after the return of Fuad Pacha, the Minister of
Foreign Affairs. The war and naval departments,
the budgets of which are most onerous to the State,
will, it is said, also undergo considerable reductions
The accounts which had reached the Government
from the upper provinces were more satisfactory,
and tranquillity was becoming gradually restored,
without, however, the precautionary measures which
had been adopted having been as yet relaxed.

SPAIN.

The Madrid journals of the 21st have reached us
The Iberia of the day before had been seized. The
semi-official journals assert positively that there is
no truth in a report that was current that M. Santa
Cruz and M. Rota, two distinguished members of
the Progrestst party, intend to resign the offices of
President of the Audit Court, and Director-General
of the Public Debt, which they lately accepted under
the O'Donnell Cabinet. It is again asserted that
Espartero will very shortly publish a manifesto, but
the Ministerial journals declare that his political
prestige has fallen so low that it will produce no
effect on the country. The Queen and royal family
remained at Gijon.

POISONING AT BRADFORD

On Saturday night a person named William
Hardaker retailed a large quantity of peppermint
lozenges in the Bradford market-place. On Sunday
morning it was reported that two boys had died
suddenly in the town. Little was thought of the
incident at the time, but as during the day several
other persons were reported to be ill, and others
dead, an inquiry was instituted, which led to the
discovery of the fact that these persons had died
ftom the effects of taking arsenic, which was mixed
in the peppermint lozenges. These lozenges had
been made by Mr. Joseph Neil, wholesale confec-
tioner, of Stone-street, Bradford, and sold by him
to Hardaker to retail. About a fortuight ago Mr.
Neil purchased 121bs. of plaster, of Paris, called by
the trade " daft" or " allibi" of Mr. Hodgson, drug-
gist, of Shipley, near Bradford. A young man
named George Goddard was in the shop at the
time, his master being ill in bed. He asked his
master whether he had got any of the ingredient
called by the person " daft," and was told by his
master that it was in a cask in one corner of the
cellar. Goddard went there, and, it appears, in mis-
take served the customer, Neil, with arsenic instead
of plaster of Paris, the casks containing both
ingredients being in the same corner, and neither
of them being labelled. The mistake was not dis-
covered till several persons had died on Sunday
from taking the peppermint lozenges made by
Neil, and sold in the market by Hardaker. 121bs.
of arsenic were mixed in 401bs. of sugar, which
would give eight or ten grains to each lozenge, as
much as would poison two persons. - Many persons
have died from each taking one lozenge ; and yes-
terday afternoon no fewer than thirteen adults and
children were reported to be dead at the police
office. Thirty or forty others were very ill. Neil,
the maker of the lozenges, remarked, in making
them, that they were unusually long in drying, an(
bore a darker colour than usual, but he never s:
petted they contained poison. Immediately the
fact was discovered, Mr. Leveratt, the chief con-
stable, took steps to put the public on their guard
against eating lozenges purchased in the market-
place, by sending out bellmen and policemen to
make it known in various localities, and placards
were thickly posted upon the walls. The fatal
effects, however, will be seen far and wide, as vast
numbers of persons came long distances on Satur-
day night to attend the Bradford market. Besides
the thirteen persons known to be dead, there are
eight or ten other deaths reported in the district.
Goddard was yesterday brought up before the
Bradford magistrates, and remanded till the coro-
ner's inquest.

A corps of volunteer Engineers, under the com-
mand of Capt. Parson, arrived at Panama on the.2sth of
September, from England, by the Royal West India mail
steamer. They consisted of 20 men, sent out by the British
Government to Vancouver's _lsland,._for..the_ _purpose of
making surveys in tha Hudson's Bay territory.

AQUATICS.

PAIR-OARED RACE FOR SILVER CUPS.
A very interesting pair-oared race, though not of a very
exciting nature, was rowed yesterday afternoon over the
course between Ilattersea and Wandsworth meadows. The
competitors were all members of the Westminster Rowing
Club, the following being the results : -
Blue and White
H. Finney . I C. Wood
T. Slade, coxswain.
Green and White
J. Elsmore I D. Slade
A. Harper, 'coxswain. .
Red and White
E. Walton H. Baker
W. Godfrey, coxswain.
Pink and White 0
E, Nolan I J. Foster
C. Knight, coxswain.
The race was to have been started in the morning from
Putney, but owing to the dense fog that prevailed, the dis-
tance was reversed, and postponed till the afternoon.
Green and White were the favourites, Red and White
having the best station:
A capital start was effected,-Blue and White taking the
lead, which they maintained throughout, winning easily
by about eight lengths. Six lengths between Green and
White and Red and White. The race between Red and
White ;and Pink and White was very spirited, Red and
White only beating them by half a length.

MOYEI MARKET AND CITY NEWS.

CITY, Two o'CLocx.
The markets for foreign and colonial produce
during the last few days have been exceedingly
inactive. In tea the transactions have been to a
very limited extent, at about previous rates. Sugar
has been depressed, and the operations have been
Confined exclusively to parcels for home consump-
tion. In the Refined Market scarcely any business
has been done, and prices show a downward move-
ment. Coffee also continues in very limited request,
and no change can be reported in values. Rice has
been flat, lower rates being current for all descrip-
tions. In fruit a steady business has been done,
and good qualities of new currants sell at fall quo-
tations. Saltpetre is steady, but the dealings have
been unimportant. Tallow has exhibited rather
more activity. The advices from St. Petersburg
announcing a slight frost, have caused a slight
advance there, and an upward tendency is ex-
hibited here in consequence.
The steamer La Plata, which sails to-day for the
West Indies, takes out £5,046 in gold.
There is a good demand for silver for shipment
to the East, and the steamer which sails on the
4th inst, is expected to take out a larger sum than
for some time past. The price of bars, for this mail,
has advanced to ss. led., and dollars to ss. 2d. 4d.
The demand for money is rather more active
°wing to the preparations in progress for the com-
mercial bills due on Thursday, the 4th inst. No
alteration, however, has taken place in the terms
of discount, although the supply of bills is rather
larger.

The ftllowing memorandum is from the Com•
puttee of Mexican Bondholders :

The Committee of Mexican Bondholders have received
advices from Mr. Whitehead, dated Mexico, the 3d October,
nth a copy of a letter, dated 19th September, sent by way
of the United States, the original of which has not yet
reached them. The agents at Vera Cruz had sent Mr.
Whitehead 33,318 dollars in short bills on Mexico,
received from the merchants in payment of duty
bill
8. The question of the expenses entailed on
the bondholders by taking the payment in this way
Was still under discussion. Mr. Whitehead will
forward this money as soon as there shall be a conducta
from the capital to Vera Cruz. In politics the state of
affairs had not materially altered. The Government troops
Under General Casanova, at Guadalajara, had, after suffer-
ing a defeat, pronounced, and shot their officers. On the
other hand, General Vidarri had abandoned San Luis
Potosi without a blow, and had since, according to a
telegram from Queretaro, been completely routed by the
forces of the Government under General Miramon. It was
said that on property of the clergy to the amount of
700,000 dols. the Government was about to receive a loan
of some 500,000 dols. from the agent of a London house in
Mexico.

37, BEDFORD SQUARE, LONDON,
Matriculated Member of the University of Edinburgh, Hono•
rary Member of the London Hospital Medical, Society, Li
centiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &c.

The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fear-
ful consequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities,
and excesses, which have produced more misery in Youth,
degradation in Manhood, and premature decay at all stages
of life, than, perhaps, any other class of disease known to
modern pathologists. Its perusal is particularly recommended
to persons entertaining secret doubts of their physical condi-
tion, and who are conscious of having hazarded the health,
happiness, and privileges to which every human being is en-
titled.

It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that
there are principles of personal management which cannot be
violated without incurring grievous penalties, and when
wisdom and regret succeed the heyday of inconsiderate self-
indulgence, how those penalties may be mitigated, how the
sting of their bitterness may be removed, and how the evil
and its consequences may be avoided, and, above all, that
there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional
derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply
s cure.

FRANCE.

PARIS, MONDAY.
This being All Saints' Day, the Bourse and all
the public offices are closed.
General de Brigade d'Oullenbourg has been ap-
pointed to the command of a division of cavalry at
Luneville, in the room of General Count Lion, who
has retired from ill health.

The llfoniteur de la Reunion gives the following
details connected with the seizure of the French
ship the Alfred by the Portuguese, as briefly men-
tioned by the telegraphic despatch from Nantes
" The Labourdonnais steamer
.has brought to the
Government of Reunion news from the coast of
Africa which lead us to augur favourably of the
mission of the French brig of war Le Genie. She
has also brought reports from Capt. Cahours, of
the Alfred. That vessel was at AnjoUan when
she fell in with the English corvette Persian, by
the captain of which she was visited, every in-
quiry being made as to the operations which she
was engaged in. The clear and explicit replies
made by the captain of the Alfred prevented the
commandant of the Persian from carrying into
execution his intention of searching the vessel.
The interviews which the captain of the Genie
afterwards had with the commanders of the Eng-
lish cruisers on the 'station and the energetic lan-
guage he made use of were of a nature to prevent
the renewal of similar pretensions. The instruc-
tions for the vessels on the Mozambique station,
by the Governor of Reunion, give the French mer-
chantment all the support necessary for their
commercial operations. The Alfred, on leaving
the Comores, where she had made some engage-
ments, proceeded to Ibo, on the eastern coast of
Africa, to convey three European passengeis to
that place. The Portuguese Governor seized the
vessel, and sent her to Mozambique. The Governor
of Reunion received the intimation of this fact from
the Governor-General of Mozambique, who in the
same despatch announced that the Alfred had been
released, and the Governor of Ibo summoned to
Mozambique to give an account of his conduct.
Thus satisfaction hattbeen given before it-has Veen
applied for."

THORLEY'S FOOD FOR CATTLE.-
It is only a short time since this singularly efficacious
article of animal diet first made its appearance ; and already
its celebrity is world-wide. It has been a subject of wonder,
and has puzzled many a brain to explain how this has been
brought about. Yet when we are acquainted with a few facts
concerning the food, our wonder will cease. A few days since,
a gentleman wrote, stating that he had a horse which was a
" perfect bag of bones." He tried all kinds of things to get
the animal into condition, but in vain. He then bought some
of Thorley's food; and he says the effect was wonderful. The
horse rapidly grew fat, and in the course of a few weeks had
gained no less than 12 stones. Again we find at the late agri-
cultural shows at Birmingham, Cardiff, drc., the animals which
carried off the highest prizes had been partly fed with Thor-
ley's food for cattle. Such facts speak for themselves, and we
are forced to the conclusion that its celebrity arises solely
from its own intrinsic merits, and the great demand 'or it can
proceed alone from the good opinion and testimony of those
who have tried it. All parties interested in horses and cattle
will do well to apply to 77, Newgate-street, London, for a
pamphlet which is sent post-free.

PAIR-OARED RACE FOR SILVER CUPS.
A very interesting pair-oared race, though not of a very
exciting nature, was rowed yesterday afternoon over the
course between Battersea and Wandsworth 'meadows. The
competitors were all members of the Westminster Rowing
Club, the following being the results:—
Blue and White 1
H. Finney I C. Wood
T. Slade, coxswain.
Green and White
J. Elsmore I • D. Slade
A. Harper, coxswain.
Red and -White
E. Walton I H. Baker
W. Godfrey, coxswain.
Pink and White - ... 0
E, Nolan I J. Foster
C. Knight, coxswain.
The race was to have been started in the morning from.
Putney, but owing to the dense fog that prevailed, the dis-
tance was reversed, and postponed till the afternoon.
Green and White were the favourites, Red and White
having the best station.
A capital start was effected, Blue and White taking the
lead, which they maintained throughout, winning easily
by about eight lengths. Six lengths between Green and
White and Red and White. The race between Red and
White ',land Pink and White was very spirited, Red and
White only beating them by half a length.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SlR,—About a year and a half ago the little
village of Chiselhurst, in Kent, had the misfortune
of having their peal of bells destroyed by fire, and
such quantity of the old metal as could be gathered
together was sent to Messrs. Warner and Sons, bell-
founders, who purchased the same, and the casting
of the new peal was entrusted to them as well.
On Saturday last eight members of the St. James's
Society, of London, paid a visit to Chiselhurst, and
rang upon the bells of the parish church, Mr.
John Holt's original one-course peal of Grandsire
triples, having the doubles in the last four leaves,
containing 5,040 changes in two hours fifty-three
minutes. Performers—Mr. Henry Haley, treble ;
William Bannister, 2d ; John Bradley, 3d ; Henry
Booth, 4th ; Robert Jameson, sth ; Charles 'Wilson,
6th; John Rogers, 7th; Jesse Hortin, tenor. Con-
ducted by Mr. Henry Haley. The above was a
masterpiece of change-ringing, and was worthy of
the bells, which are a noble peal in the key of F,
from the above foundry, and which cannot be sur-
passed by any peal of their weight (tenor, 17 cwt.)
in the country. A space in your valuable paper
will much oblige your obedient servant,
