Head. quarters.; Oct. 13•
Sir,—ln continuation of my despatch of the 9th inst.,
have the honour to inform you that, on the 10th, I made
reeonnaisance of the walls of Pekin with General de gar

tauban.
Having selected the sites for the breaching batteries,
the works were immediately traced and constructed, an
a
the batteries were armed, so as to be ready to open .fire ,
noon to-day, in the event of the gate not being surrender'
to us.
This morning I sent c4orae officers with Mr. Parkes 0
arrange with the Chinese d' uties for the surrender of ale
gate of the city, which we had demanded of them. TllOl
endeavoured to make excuses, and delay, if possible, tbe
surrender on various false pretences; but were told in rePli
that 12 o'clock was the hour that had been fixed, and 11°
extension could be granted.
Accordingly the easternmost gate on the north side of
the city has been this day occupied by the a,'lied forces with'.
out opposition, and a letter having been reek ived from the
Prince of Kung, announcing the readiness of the Chine°
Government to agree to all our terms, I have Cvery reason
to hope to be able shortly to announce that thee campaign
is at an end and peace concluded.
Last night a French soldier and eight sowars or Fella!
Horse were surrendered to us, having been brought i.n fro'
places where they had • been confined, about 50 miles Off. 4.
These men had all been treated with great severity a,
first, and they report the death of one French officer all'
one soldier. also of Lieutenant Anderson of Fane's
and Mr. De Norman, First Attache to her Majesty's Leger
tion, and of two sowars of Fane's Horse.
The remain der of the prisoners are to be brought bat
to-night or to-otorrow morning, having been confined a
great distance off.
This letter will be' despatched by a special steamer 0
Hong Kong, to overtake the mail, and I trust to be able to
add a postscript, giving the names of those who have our
vived.—l have; &c.,

sent in, but the mail can longer be delayed. J. H. O.

On Mr. Robert Morgan's stand we observed some
very fine beasts from Norfolk, the property of Mr,
Leeds, Mr. Felton, Mr. Freeman, and Fand ; from
Scotland, the property of Mr. Mitchell, Mr. Stod-
dart, Mr. Pidd, and Mr. Garden ; from the midland
counties, Mr. Morgan had likewise some very good
stock.

Messrs. Giblett and Son had on offer about thirty
extraordinary fine Norfolk beasts belonging to
Messrs. Wortley ; also some fine Scotch beasts from
Messrs. Stewart, Martin, and Mennie, which,
although smaller than usual, were of very superior
quality.
Mr. George Dickson had an excellent stand of
Scotch-fed beasts from the counties of Aberdeen,
Banff, Kincardine, and Inverness. They were the
respective property of Messrs. Martin, Knowles,
Thompson, Kidd, Bruce, Longmore, Stodart,
Smart, Frost, Shand, Wishart, Mitchell, Thorn,
and other Scotch graziers.

Mr. William Collins had a very fine show of
beasts, forwarded by Mr. W. Shaw, Far Coton,
Northamptonshire; Mr. Wallis, of Overstone,
Northamptonshire; Mr. James Attenborough ;
Mr. Overman, of Egmere; Mr. John Hudson, of
Castle Acre. Mr. Collins had, likewise, some
remarkably good Devons, belonging to Mr. T. S.
Moore of Warham. Several other graziers had on
offer some superior stock ; but that on offer from
Sir Charles Knightley's land was not equal to
most former years. The show of sheep was by no
means a good one, either as respects number
or quality. Messrs. Weale had a good show of
sheep, belonging to Messrs. Oakley, White, Senior,
Rowland, &c. ; also several lots from Oxon and
Berks.

Messrs. Eland and Son, Mr. Hancock, and other
graziers had some fine specimens of the Lincoln-
shire long-woolled breed.
Mr. Thomas Dodds exhibited some very good
Down and half bred sheep, belonging to Mr.
Franklin, of Wallingford ; Mr. Readings, of Evers-
ham; and Mr. Dodd, of Chickendon, Oxon. Mr.
Collins exhibited some remarkably fine cross bred
sheep.

ROYAL ENGLISH OPERA, COVENT-
GARDEN.—Under the Management of Miss Louisa
Pyne and Mr. W. Harrison, Sole Lessees.

IMPORTANT NOTICE.
The Management find it necessary to announce to their
Patrons that it will be impossible for a few nights at Christ-
mas to perform Balfe's eminently successful Opera with the
Grand Pantomime. The time in representation and scenic
preparation for an Harlequinade of such magnitude, renders
the temporary suspension of the brilliant Opera imperative.
Boxes and places will continue to be booked daily at the
Box-office for the reproduction of the Opera at an early date.
The sensation created with the public on the first represen-
tation of Balfe's New Legendary Opera was most enthu-
siastic. Continuous applause marked its progress from the
rise until the fall of th, curtain. The demand for places daily
at the Box-office to witness this great music I work of our
popular English Composer, places the Management in the
prowl position of announcing the performance of BIANCA,
THE BRAVO'S BRIDE, Every Evening until further
notice.
THIS EVENING, and during the Week, Balfe's New
Legendary Opera, BIANCA, THE BRAVO'S BRIDE :

AUSTRIA.

VIENNA, DEC. 14.

At 10 o'clock in the morning of yesterday the
following sentences were passed on Messrs. Richter,
Krumbholz, and Bayer :-
1. " Francis Richter, partner in two cotton mills,
and principal director of the Credit Bank, is guilty
of the crime of having led to an abuse of official
power (Verleitung zum Missbrauche der Ands-
gewalt) by giving to the Imperial Royal Field
Marshal Lieutenant Baron von Eynatten Northern
Railroad shares of the value of 25,634 fl. skr.
Austrian currency, with the intent to induce him
to be partial in his d cisions relative to the sup-
plies for the army.
"2. On accoun insufficient proof Ile is
acquitted of the c ge of having been guilty
of defraudation by artfully bringing into account,
and teat to the disadvantage of the z,upreme com-
mando of the army, a sum of 50,746f1. 37kr. on
bills of the value of £20,000. .

"V 3. Francis Richter is declared to be innocent
and to be acquitted (schuldlos erkannt and losge-
sprochen) of the following charges of fraud made
against him. Of having drawn up a false account
to the advantage of the Ministry of Finances and
to the prejudice of the Credit Bank ; of having, to
the detriment of the State, intentionally reduced
the quantity and quality of the material used for
making the 4,000,000 ells of calico which he under-
took to supply; and of having, to the prejudice of
the sub-contractors, diminished the quantity of
calico he had undertaken to deliver."
The verdict of the Bench having been read aloud,
the counsel for the Crown rose, and declared that he
intended to appeal against a part of it. He, how-
ever, to the surprise of the public said, that as
there were " many extenuating circumstances," and
Richter had long been in confinement, he recom-
mended him to the mercy of the Court. After the
President had stated what had induced him and his
Sour colleagues to give such a verdict as they had
do►le, the Court retired for about hclf an hour, and
on it.' return pronounced the following sentence :
►► The defendant, Francis Richter, is condemned
to imprisonment for one month, during three days
of which mo►nth he is to fast (to have nothing but
b-ead and water). The present of 25,634f1. is to be
given to the eleemosynary fund of the city of
Vienna, and the costs of the trial are to be borne
by'the defendant.
" The defendants, John Krumbholz, the manager
of Richter's cotton mills, and Henry Bayer,
Richter's agent, having been found innocent, are
acquitted, and the State has to pay all costs."
London, England, 1860-12-17

CORN EXCHANGE.

There was a fair demand for wheat in most of the coun-
try markets held on Saturday, and good and fine sample
sold on rather higher terms. Barley commanded more
attention, and the value of other kinds of produce was well
supported. Flour was in improved request, at very full
prices.

The Continental markets have ruled steady for wheat os
English account ; but the business done has been by no
means extensive. Spring corn has moved off steadily, os
former terms. Advices from the United States are to the
effect that scarcely any produce was in progress of ship•
ment to England.
The arrivals of English produce up to our market, last
week, were very moderate. The imports from abroad were
seasonably good,—viz , 35,561 quarters of wheat, 12,009
barley, 43,942 oats, 10,435 rye, 756 beans, 8,404 peas, 831
tares, 13,693 linseed, 4,259 rapeseed, 10 sundry seeds, 340
sacks and 18,079 barrels of flour.

The quantity of English wheat received fresh up to-dsit
coastwise and by land-carriage, was only limited, end
chiefly in poor condition. The attendance of buyers W$
tolerably good, and both red and white parcels moved off
freely, at an advance in the quotations realised on Monde/
last of from is to 2s per quarter, and at which nearly the
whole of the supply changed hands. Some of the samples
were only fit for starch purposes.
Notwithstanding that the supply of foreign wheat, fresh
as well as ex-granary, was very large, most descriptions
changed hands freely, at an improvement in value of from
is to 2s per quarter. It is computed that nearly 10,000
quarters changed hands.
Floating cargoes of grain were held for more money; but
the business doing in them was by no means extensive.
We have to report a good consumptive demand for barley►
and most kinds were is per quarter dearer than on this dsl
se'nni ght.

Both old and new malt moved off steadily, and priO
were well supported.
There was a good consumptive demand for oats, at 6a
per quarter more money.
Both beans and, peas were in request, and, in some 1
stances, is per quarter dearer.

The flour trade was steady, Country flour advanced 16
per 2801bs.

either in the tr.eaties concluded the yoar before last, or
in
the conventions negotiated this year at Tien-tsin.
The Command'srs-in-Chief have consequently no remark

those now in its hands with mt delay, and at the- seine
hue depute a competent officer to prepare the conventions
and other documents, their Excellencies the Allied Ambits'
sadors will name a day for the sign attire of the conventions'
the exchange of ratifications, and siniilar formalities.
Late events, however, considered, it will not be proper
that faith should be placed at random in the Chinese GO'
vernment or its pe,,ple. It becomes expedie.nr to take mew'
sures of precaution beforehand against evil that may te
done. Before, thereThre, their Excellencies cut-0' Pe•l‘jut
gate of the capital will have to be occupied by an ascot. t de'
tached from both arni-les. The Commanders-in-Chief will
decide which of the gates, and the Chinese troops will be
then requirrenall back for the time being from the Cate
their Excellencies choose ,to hold.
This effected, if the officers and people of the capital re'
main quiet without giving trouble, as in the case of Tien'
tsin and Tun gehow, the allied forces will conduct there'
selves towards them as they have done towards the officers
I and people of those two cities.

as we have repeatedly bad occasion to men-
tion, the white and the negro population are
nearly balanced—the actual slaveholders being but
a small minority of the people. What could such
States do against a nation of persons double their
number, with more than double their wealth and
military resources, invading them in the interest of
the slaves themselves ? In that view coercion is
practicable enough, but it would be with the sacri-
fice of the slaveholders' lives to the rage of their in-
furiated bandsmen. Humanity shrinks from
emancipation by such methods—almost as much as
it does from the brutal and inhuman atrocities of the
slavery itself of the Southern States.

THE PRESENT DISTRESS IN TRADE
fully explained in J. GROSSMITH'S
" GOVERNMENT UPON FIRST PRINCIPLES."
The cause is there predicated of the monetary difficulties ex
perienced in 1860. The Crisis is at hand. Anxiety in busi-
ness has now become the ,zrim torture. Purity of motive,
Intelligently exercised, must animate all Governments, or all
is lost, All denominations of Constitutions are carefully
examined in J. Grossmith's "Government upon First Prin-
ciples."

LEICESTER-DEC. 31.

There was a moderate supply of wheat to-day, a fair
attendance, and trade heavy. White wheat, 44s to 49a
—red, 40s to 45s per 36 stone; a very fair inquiry for fine
barley, grinding, 27s to 30s ; malting, 38s to 42e per qr. ;
the oat trade was slow, at quotations ranging from 24s to
34s per 24 stone. Beans a moderato sale, at 42s to 52a
per 38 stone. _ _ _

Fine flow, 3ls Seconds, 32s I Thirds, 30s per 20 stone.

NORWICH-DEC. 31.

Here, to-day, there was rather a fair attendance of the
trade, and an inactive market. There was a small show of
wheat, prices for both old and new were at no advance
on former rates. The supply of malting barley was fair,
at fully the currencies of last market. In oats, beans, and
peas little or no change.

An average show of wheat, with a dull sale, at barely the
rates of last market day. Malting barley was in small sup-
ply at former rates ; grinding qualities the turn in favour
of the buyer. Beans were at high prices. A very fair
business was transacted in oats, at former rates.

THAMES.

A THIEF BAULKED AND A Tuna, CAUGHT.—James
Shardon, aged 17, was brought before Mr. Yardley, charged
with stealing a pair of boots, value 7s. 6d., from the shop
of Mr. James Thomas, boot and shoe maker, of No. 122,
lligh-street, Poplar.

The prisoner was detected and captured under the fol-
lowing curious circumstances :

_
Last night Mr. James Jackson, a cheesemonger and
provision merchant, was standing at the door of his shop,
No. 131, lligh-street, Poplar, when ho saw the prisoner
make an attempt to steal a largo piece of bacon on the win-
dow-board within the shop, but a little thing prevented
him, in the shape of a very clear sheet of
plate glass, which formed the window. The prisoner
struck his hand against the glass, and appeared very much
surprised. Mr. Jackson had no doubt the prisoner thought
the window was an open one, and that there was no glass
at all. The prisoner walked on, soothing the 'pain in his
hand with his mouth, and uttoring maledictions on the
plate glass, until ho reached the shop of Mr. Thomas,
where he pulled down a pair of boots, exposed for sale at the
shop door, and walked away with gem. Mr. Jackson im-
mediately followed,and seized the prisoner, who said, "What
do you want with me P" to which Mr. Jackson replied,
I want the boots you have stolen. The prisoner said I have
no boots, and at the same time dropped a pair close to his
feet. Mr. Jackson picked them up and delivered them to
his neighbour, who identified them as his property:
The prisoner pleaded guilty.
_ _

Mr. Yardley said thn prisoner appeared to bo a very expert
thief, and sentenced him to four months' imprisonment and
hard labour in the House of Correction.

The prisoner thanked the magistrate, and as he left the
dock said he was glad it was no worse.

THE ACCIDENT OY THE MERSEY.

Thomas Grue, the boat-man who was removed to
the receiving house at the Prince's Dock, made the
following statement relative to the above melan-
choly occurrence :—Thomas Mackay, the owner of
the boat, and myself were engaged to attend the
Grand Trianon, and we accordingly went over to
Birkenhead and saw that vessel out of the dock
into the middle of the river opposite Rock Ferry.
At about half-past three o'clock, the captain of the
sdip and a number of riggers, labourers, and others
got into our boat for the purpose of going on
shore. There were about 28 or 29 of us alto-
gether. The wind was blowing fresh from the SW.
but the water round the Grand Trianon, when we
left her, was not very rough, and we did not con-
sider it dangerous to go ashore in the boat. We
had a foresail up. When about 200 yards from the
Coburg Dock Pierhead the sea was very rough, and
I had some foreboding that something wrong would
take place. To prevent accident the people on
board were told by Thomas Mackay to sit steady,
but immediately afterwarl ie boat was struck
with a very heavy &pro' back sea from the
pierhead filled her nd she instantly
went down un aped as far as I
could from 'und that a lad
had hold •der that both
of us shot.. ed him off.
i The screams o. r for assis-

tanco were drea,

waves. I heard Wm. 'Wu_

TUSCANY.

The .Arazione of Florence relates the following
strange occurrence :—" On the 27th ultimo two
English ladies were seen in the Piazza del Duomo
of that city, writing on the walls, Long live Ferdi-
nand 111 !—Down with the Government !' A car-
bineer, taking them in the fact, arrested them, but
they, without noticing his intimation, offered him
a 2')f. piece if he would allow them to finish their
sell-imposed task. Meanwhile a cro w d had gathered,
and there was reason to fear a disturbance, when
Major Ginori, happening to pass that way, stepped
up to the ladies, and advised them (in English) to
enter a hackney coach with the carbineer, whose
prisoner they were, and thus to prevent any further
mischief, on which the mob seemed to be intent.
The ladies obeyed his advice, and thus the matter
ended."

ARMING THE

Undaunted by the defective state of the law
which bars all parties in Ireland from participating
in the volunteer movement, the people of Cork are
about making an experiment with a view of bring-
ing the matter to an issue. A local paper (the
Constitution) states that preparations are making
for the formation of a rifle corps for the city and
county, and the parties promoting it intend imme-
diately placing themselves in communication with
the authorities, in order that the necessary powers
may be obtained to carry out the object. It is
added that the Mayor of Cork has signified his
readiness to subscribe £l,OOO towards the expenses,
and donations to a very large amount have been
promised in case the corps is established.
