THE ARM 7.

The Secretary of State for War has decided on
making an important alteration in the dress of the
troops serving in India, in order to promote the
health and comfort of the soldiers exposed to that
climate. For the present dress is to be substituted
a suit of a light drab colour, made of a strong ma-
terial chiefly composed of cotton, consisting of a
tunic and loose trousers. Instead of the Govern-
ment providing. the men with this dress, as at pre-
sent, commanding officers of regiments and depots
will be permitted to employ any contractor they
please to furnish the new clothing, the authorities
at the Horse Guards paying the colonel or other
commanding officer a certain price for each suit
supplied. As soon as the necessary arrangements
have been completed the regiments now in India
and the troops about to embark will be supplied
with the new clothing.
The following vessels were on Saturday taken
up by the Council for India for the conveyance of
reinforcements to India :—viz., the Colgram, to sail
on the 4th of November ; the Bombay, to sail on
the sth of November; the Mary Harrison and the
Mystery, each to sail on the 6th of November.
A considerable number of invalid soldiers from
India are now in the military hospital at Great
Yarmouth. Sick men are also received from the
various camps and depots throughout England.
The hospital is on the Denes, near Yarmouth.
Lieut.-Colonel R. C. Moody, Royal Engineers, in
charge of a detachment of Sappers and Miners
about to proceed to British Columbia, has shipped
a two 7-inch cylinder Boydell's traction engine of
10-horse power and endless railway cars adapted
for the rough roads of that country, to serve in
the erection of the Government works to be con-
structed there.
Sergeant-Major Phillips, 14th Battalion, Royal
Artillery, Woolwich, and Sergeant-Major Kinnear,
sth Battalion, have succeeded jointly to the £2O
annuity relinquished by Quartermaster Martin on
obtaining his commission ; and two gratuities of
£l5 each have been awarded to six gunners of the
Royal Artillery at Woolwich.

THE .RUSSI eiN BART FOR GERIES.

Win. Woolley, chard Webster, John Webster,
and Simon Barnett, who have beeJi. in custody for
several days, the former with eng raving, and the
three latter with hitying in their posSession, three
plates for the forgery- of 10-roub lc notes of the
National Bank of Russii,:, were on Saturday again

placed at the bar' before Mr. Elliodt, at Lambeth
Police-court, for further e:taminatien,l.

Mr. Sleigh, instructed by Messier. Peachy, Oli-
verson, Lavie, and Peachy, attended. on the part of
the Russian government to prosecute ; and for the
prisoners Mr. Solomon, Mr. Gwyne, nd Mr. Binns
appeared.
Mr. Sleigh having indicated the in ature of the
additional evidence which he intended to offer,
called.

Inspector Holmes, who deposed that on the Bth
inst. he was pre.t.ent when the prisoner Woolley
was taken into custody- at Woohs ich by Inspec r
M'Kenzie, and accompanied that uilicer and his pri-
soner to town. In the City Mr. M'Kenzie had occa-
sion to call at the solicitor's, andloft Woolley in his
(witness's) custody, and while tovther the prisoner
said, " Can they do anything with me, the plates are
not perfect ?" I said to the prisoner that I did not
know. The prisoner then said, " They are not
correct ; they have got me into it. What a fool I
should be to make them correct. 'rliey got me to
do it." I was present at this corn t when Inspec-
tor M'Kenzie confronted Woolley- with • Richard
Webster, and, producing the plates, asked the latter
if the former was the man he got them from, and.
Webster replied that he was, and 'Woolley added,
" What he says is right." I was als iv present when
the third plate produced was found mt the residence
of Bennett, in Knightsbridge.
A witness named Kelly deposed to Barnett's re-
siding at the house in question.
Mrs. Mary Ann Dalton, a widow, residing near
Woolwich, said that the prisoner W oolley resided
at her house up to six or seven -weeks ago, and
while there she noticed a plate similar to that pro-
duced in his room. The plate was nc.t so bright as
it then appeared, but she noticed thug it had some-
thing written on it, and the prisoner asked her if
she did net think it a clever piece of workmanship,
and said he did it himself. She aske d +him what it
was good for, and he replied she .did not under-
stand it, as she could not read.

Other witnesses were called, whose testimony
was a mere corroboration of the evidence before
given ; and after a lengthened inve 3tigation Mr.
Sleigh asked for another remand, when he said he
should complete his ease and call on ,his worship to
send theprisoners fo trial at the Central Criminal
Court.

The prisoners were accordingly r emanded, but
John Webster was admitted to bail.

LOANS ON L.LNDED SECURITY.

The _Dublin. Mercantile Advertiser contains the
following statement :
" In consequence of the great abundance of money,
and the difficulty of finding desirable investments,
loans on the security of real estates with title from
the Encumbered Estates Court can be had upon
easier terms than heretofore. Any amount can be
obtained, for first charge, at 4 per cent., and loans
have recently been contracted upon still lower
terms. There seems to be an impression that the
rate of interest will be permanently reduced. Pos-
sibly this may occur, but it should be remembered
that the dulness of trade has caused a considerable
augmentation of unemployed capital ; and that this,
with other causes now affecting the value of money,
may prove merely temporary."

purchases have been effected at lower prices. Rapeseed is
less active, and rather cheaper. Tares, and 'White Mustard
Seed fully support last week's rates. The Clover Seed
trade is devoid of interest. Clokes move off slowly, on

SELF-PRESERVATION.—A Medical Treatise
on the Functions and Disorders of the Generative System,
and on the cure of Nervous and Physical Debility, resulting
from vicious habits acquired during the critical passage from
youth to Manhood, with practical observations on the Phy-
siology of Marriage in its social, moral, and physical rela-
tions. To which are added remarks on the wonders of the
licroscop2 in revealing the hidden mysteries "of Life within
Life," and its advantages in detecting, by urinary examina-
tion, the cause and effect of every variety of these complaints,
with numerous engravings and cases.
BY SAMUEL LAWERT, M.D..
.i 7, 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
a cure. -

tolerable show. White wheat made 42s to 50s • red 40s to
45s per qr. There was very little change in fine barley—
quotations ranging from 38s to 435; inferior sorts, 28s to
30s per qr. Oats were not materially altered in price, fair
samples realising 30s per 24 stone. Old beans, 48s to 50s ;
new ditto, 40s to 42s per 38 stone.

LOANS ON LANDED SECURITY.

The Dublin Mercantile Advertiser contains the
following statement :
" In consequence of the great abundance of money,
and the difficulty of finding desirable investments,
loans on the security of real estates with title from
the Encumbered Estates Court can be had upon
easier terms than heretofore. Any amount can be
obtained, for first charge, at 41 per cent., and loans
hive roe:Way been CJ ! lower
terms. Theie seems to be an impression that the
rate of interest will be permanently reduced. Pos-
sibly this may occur, but it should be remembered
that the dulness of trade has caused a considerable
augmentation of unemployed. capital ; and that this,
with other causes now affecting the value of money,
may prove merely temporary."

Numerous burglaries were from 1856 to 1858'
committed in the town of Bergerac and the environs, and
the police were not able to discover the author of them.
One night, in April last, they captured a man who was in
the act of stealing planks from a wood yard, and he turned ;
out to be an Alsacian, named Zehender. This man, being
brought to trial before the Court of Assizes of the Dordogne,
was condemned to five years' imprisonment. As after this no ,
more burglaries were committed, he was suspected of being
the author of those which had been perpetrated, and on being
questioned, he frankly confessed to not fewer than 25, and
gave details, respecting them. In addition, there was strong
reason to believe that he had perpetrated 18 other burgla-
ries, robberies, or frauds. lie used to enter houses by open-
ing the doors-and windows with the implements usually
used by burglars, and in some cases by cutting the locks
out. His booty consisted of all sorts of objects, but princi-
pally plate and money. Three days ago he was brought to
trial before the same Court of Assizes, for the 25 burglaries
to which he confessed, and being declared guilty was sen-
tenced to 15 years' hard labour.

The weather (writes our correspondent on the

The atmosphere is very heavy and clouy. At

thunder and lightning.
When the Alhambra left Lisbon on the 19th the
settlement of the French claims was understood to
depend upon the arrival of the Portuguese Minister
from Paris, who was daily expected with con-
ciliatory proposals from the French Government,
in respect to which he had telegraphed to Lisbon.
The British steamship Victor Emmanuel and the
steam corvette Racoon were at anchor in the Tagus,
as well as the French ships of war Austerlitz and
Donawerth, and the steam corvette Yonne.

The Lisbon exchanges by this packet are quoted
—for three months on London at 53:;1 ; Paris, 528 ;

CORN EXCHANGE.

Good and fine wheat were in fair request in most of the
country markets held on Saturday, and prices were well
supperted. In other qualities very little business was
doing, at about previous rates.

Fine barley and oats realised extreme rates ; but all other
produce was a slow inquiry, _ _ _

Throughout the continent wheat has been 'held at full
quotations. The amount of business doing in it, however,
has not been extensive. Spring corn has supported pre-
vious rates, with a fair inquiry. In the United States
wheat and other articles have continued very inactive.

The arrivals of English grain up to market last week were
on the increase. From abroad we received liberal supplies,
viz. :-16,678 quarters of wheat; 17,277, barley; 109,946,
oats ; 860, rye ; 241, beans ; 6,965, peas ; 20, teres ; 4,640,
linseed ; 220 rapeseed ; 3,979, sundry seeds ; 1,105 sacks and
1,290 barrels of flour.

Fresh up today, both from Essex and Kent, the arrivals
of wheat were very limited, and the show of samples was
consequently small. However, the demand for all kinds,
as millers generally showed no disposition to get into stock,
was in a very inactive state. Factors, however, were toler-
ably firm in their demands, and the bulk of the supply
changed hands at prices barely equal to Monday last. At
the close of business, however, Kent wheat gave way ls.
per quarter. There was a large quantity of foreign wheat
on offer, fresh as well as ex granary. Even the finest
samples were much neglected, and, in some instances,
prices ruled almost nominal.
In floating cargoes of grain, off Falmouth, very little was
doing.

Fine malting barley was scarcer, and in good request, at
very full prices. Grinding and distilling sorts moved off
slowly, at barely late rates.

Old malt sold at full prioes ; but new qualities were a
slow sale.

Owing to the large arrivals from abroad the oat trade
ruled heavy, at 6d to is per quarter less money, compared
with Monday last.

Beans supported former currencies ; but most kinds of
peas were fully is per quarter lower than last week.
We had a moderate inquiry for flour, at last week's quo-
tations.

ROCHESTER—OcT. 23.

At this market to-day there was a full supply of wheat,

SIR,—An impression having gone abroad that
the Royal Alhambra Palace is to be opened as a
casino, we beg to state that such is not the case,
but that it will remain as a circus during the term
of our lease; and that the celebrated American
Equestrian Company, with several novel additions
and extra talent, will shortly return to London for
the winter season. Yours, &c.

Stratton-street, Piccadilly, was proved in Doctors' Com-
mons on Oct. 7, by the executors, Andrew Robert Drum-
mond, Esq., and Robert Drummond, Esq„ the son. The

banking-house where other wills were kept. Two codicils
wore also found in the same repository, in a separate enclo-
sure, one dated January 11, 1847 ; the other October 16,
1850. Mrs. Drummond the relict, is left a life interest in
the estates both real and personal, and at her decease a

PERSIA.

A letter from Teheran of the 15th September
says :—" The examination made into the accounts of
Mirza-Agha-Khan, ex-Sadragan (Prime Minister),
who, with his two sons, is still in custody, has re-
vealed facts which are almost incredible. Thus,
though his salary was not less than 1,000,000 f. a
year, he appropriated annually 6,000,000 f. ; and
during the war with England he levied on all
the country a tax, which he called ' Tax for the
Holy War,' which amounted to 12,000,000 f.,
but of that sum only one-fourth went into the
treasury—the three others not hating been ac-
counted for by him and his creatures. It is alleged
that one or two influential parties have strongly
solicited the Shah to take this individual into his
service again, and on his refusal have even em-
ployed threats. But the Shah has remained firm."

THE BOMBAY MAILS.

The screw steamer Malta, belonging to the Penin-
sular and Oriental Company's fleet, Captain
Henry Down, arrived at Southampton on Saturday
morning, bringing the heavy portion of the Bom-
bay mails. She left Alexandria on the 11th inst.,
Malta the 14th, and Gibraltar the 18th. On
freight the Malta brought four packages of specie
value £1,700, and 1,325 packages of miscellaneous
articles, principally consisting of silks, shawls,
and flax.

Among the passengers by the Malta (10 first-
class and 13 second) were Capt. Sir Lionel Smith,
Lady Smith, two children, and servant ; Capt.
White, 12th Lancers; Lieut. D. G. Clery, 4th
Regiment ; Lieut. Le Brien, 18th Regiment; Mr.
G. C. Musters, R.N., Dr. Moekler, Dr. Martin, Mr.
W. Dundas Cleote, Mr. Duncan, &c.
Her Majesty's steamer Medina left Alexandria
on the Bth inst., for Candia, for the purpose of
assisting in the laying of the submarine telegraph
cable.

At Malta on the 14th were her Majesty's ships
Hibernia, Ceylon, and Wanderer, and. the Penin-
sular and Oriental Company's steamship Panther.
On the 14th the Malta passed the company's
steamer, Pera, outside of Malta, bound for Alex-
andria, with the India and China mails of the 4th,
from Southampton ; and on the 15th she passed a
steamer supposed to be the Damascus.
The latest quotations of exchange at Gibraltar
stood as under :

London, 20 days' date, 50 146 ; Paris, ditto, sf.
28c. ; Marseilles, ditto, sf. 30c. ; Madrid, eight
days' sight d dis. ; Cadiz, ditto, a dis ; Valencia,
dis. ; Barcelona, y pm. Spanish pillared dollars,
3 per cent pm., nohe and no demand.
The Malta made the quickest run out to Alex-
andria on reord, having accomplished the voyage in
10 days 13 hours, including 19 hours' stoppages,
being under 10 days in actual steaming. She hail
light winds and calm weather during the passage.
On the homeward voyage she met with moderate
weather in the Mediterranean, but after leaving
Gibraltar she encountered heavy gales from the
north-west, veering gradually round to the north-
east. Had it not been for this heavy weather the
Malta would, no doubt, have also made the quickest
run home, having been only six days seven hours
from Alexandria to Gibraltar, inclusive of eight
hours' stay at Malta, and without any assistance
from her sails.
Quarantine is still exacted at Gibraltar and.
Malta ; so that, although this steamer had a per-
fectly clean bill of health from Alexandria, the
passengers who landed at Malta would be subjected
to seven days' confinement in the Lazaretto.

we make no alteration in our quotations. Fine barley fully
as dear, but inferior is per qr. cheaper. Oats realised quite
as much money. Beans is per qr. lower. Little doing in
peas.
