THE PENINSULAR MAILS.

The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steam-
ship Tagus, Capt. W. B. Hall, arrived at South-
ampton yesterday, with mails in charge of Mr.
Edington, Master R.N.; Admiralty agent. She left
Lisbon the 7th inst., and Vigo on the Bth, but had
no communication with Oporto. Off Cape Villano
the key of the starboard midship crank gave way,
in consequence of which the starboard wheel was
disconnected, and the ship came home with the port
wheel alone working. During the first part of the
outward voyage the Tagus experienced a heavy
westerly gale, with violent squalls of wind and
rain ; subsequently, strong north-easterly breezes
and squally, witn rain. Homewards she had strong
breezes from the southward and eastward, with
heavy sea, as far as Cape Finisterre ; across the Bay
of Biscay light easterly winds and fine weather.
No ships were spoken on the voyage.
The Tagus brought 8 passengers, 20 packages of
specie, value £12,510 sterling, 893 half-chests of
oranges, 7 boxes of wine, 75 boxes of drugs, 30
boxes of preserved fruit, 1 bag of acorns, 251 boxes
of eggs, and sundries.
The usual Portuguese squadron, and the Dutch
frigate Esertsen, were lying in the Tagus when the
packet left.
On the 6th inst., at 8 a.m., the Portuguese gun-
boat Donna Maria Anna arrived at Lisbon from
Plymouth.
Our Lisbon correspondence of the 7rh shows con-
tinued activity in preparation for the electoral con-
test, but great want of defined principles of govern-
ment among all political parties in Portugal.
Lisbon exchanges at three months are quoted

COUNTRY MARKETS.

LIVERPOOL-OCT. 25.

We had a fair attendance of millers and dealers at our
corn exchange this morning, and they were more inclined
to do business. Wheat was rather more dealt in, and,
though previous prices were generally asked, the turn was
again in buyers' favour. Flour had a better sale at the
rates of last market. The business in Indian corn was fair
at full prices. Oats ld per bushel and oatmeal 6d per load
dearer. Beans, peas, mad barley at extreme rates.

BRISTOL.

The Bristol Rifles assembled on Saturday after-
noon, and, as on the previous public parade, were
marched through the city to Durdham-down. The
members of the corps are now rapidly completing
their arming. Upwards of 250 beautifully made
rifles, with sword bayonets, have been supplied to
members who have purchased for themselves, 125
have been received from the Government stores, and
a second consignment of the same number is daily
expected. Bristol will then be prepared to furnish,
at an hour's notice, 500 well-armed, and, as their
field drys prove, well drilled and thoroughly efficient
volunteer soldiers, a number which it is confidently
expected will be Rearly if not quite doubled before
the ensuing summer. It has been determined to
provide the corps with ahandsomeshako,surmounted
by a drooping black plume, for full dress occasions,
the present cap to be then considered as a sort of
undress uniform. The 60th Antrim Rifles, under
the command of the Marquis of Donegal, are to
leave Aldershott for Horfield-barracks, Bristol, at
the latter end of this month or the beginning of
November, and it is expected that the volunteers
will then be In igaded with then'.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-(TIIIS DA. L)

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

AN UNWELCOME VISITOR TO A LICENSED VICTUAL-
LER.—Hannah Wilson, a middle-aged female, of violent
disposition, was charged as follows :
Mr. Richard Haylett, of the Admiral Duncan, 38, Old
Compton-street, said that at two the previous afternoon the
prisoner came to his house and asked to be served with
drink, but seeing that she had at the time more than enough
he refused to serve her. Upon this she became very vio-
lent, and on the waiter attempting to put her outside she
bit him severely in the hand, broke somo plates and a lamp
globe, and when she was at length got outside deliberately
smashed one of his windows.

The prisoner said she was very sorry, but liquor was the
cause.

Mr. Beadon said if she had been charged before him with
biting the man's hand, and it had been proved, he would
have given her the longest term of imprisonment he could,
as he should in all cases whore the teeth were used. He
would order her to pay the damage, and in defailt of doing
so she would be imprisoned for a month.

SOUTH MIDDLESEX RIFLES.

A meeting of this corps took place at Beaufort-
house, Walham-green, on Tuesday last, Viscount
Ranelagh in the chair, when the committee decided
that tenders should be advertised for the butt,
and the works commenced forthwith.
The greatest
cordiality exists among the members, and the regi-
mental drills now take place at 4 o'clock on Tues-
days, Thursdays, and Fridays. Mr. J. W. Prout,
of Neasdon, has forwarded the committee a hand-
some donation of £2l, Lieut.-Col. Evelyn, Colonel
Merrick, Mr. J. Wylde, Q.C., &c., have also sent
donations in addition to those last advertised. A
general meeting of the corps will take place on
Saturday next, when the uniform will be selected
and forwarded to the Lord-Lieutenant for approval.
The corps musters nearly 400 members, including
many members of Parliament.

ABERDEEN.
At a meeting of the corps, which was held in the
Court-house on the 19th, it was agreed that the fol-
lowing gentlemen should be recommended to the
Lord-Lieutenant of the county for appointment as
officers :—Mr. W. Jopp and Mr. A. Thompson as
captains, Mr. G. Cadenhead and Mr. A.Edmond as
ensigns, and Dr. Keith and Dr. Carr as medical
officers. These gentlemen were elected by the
members of the corps generally, and it is intended,
in order to save any clubbing together or attempt
at exclusiveness, to divide the corps into companies
by ballot. The corps contains at present upwards
of 120 gentlemen, who have furnished themselves
with a very neat dark gray uniform and the short
Enfield rifle and sword-bayonet. Drill has been
carried on in the quadrangle of MarischaLCollege,
under the superintendence of Sergeant-Major Phyn,
of the Royal Aberdeenshire Highlanders, for the
last two months, during which time the members
have made marked progress.

OXFORD UNIVERSITY.

In consequence of a notification from the War-
office that only long Enfield rifles can at present be
supplied to volunteer corps, the original intention
of arming all the companies with the short Enfield
rifle has been unavoidably abandoned. As, how-
ever, many members of the corps have already
ordered short Enfield rifles, it is p:oposed to arm the
third company exclusively with them. All mem-
bers wishing to belong to that company, providing
their own sword-bayonet and rifle, are requested to
communicate with Lieutenant Warner, commanding
the third company. The third company will not be
allowed to exceed the average strength of the other
two. The price of the short Enfield sword-bayonet
and rifle will very little, if at all, exceed five
guineas. Arrangements will be made to furnish
long Enfield rifles and bayonets to those members
who wish to purchase them at cost price.

CORN EXCHANGE.

Notwithstanding that only a limited supply of English
wheat was on offer here to-day, the demand for all kinds
was very inactive. Compared with Monday, however, no
change took place in the quotations:
Fine foreign wheats supportdd previous currencies ; but
the inquiry for them was by no means active. Inferior
parcels were almost nominal.

There was a good consumptive inquiry for all kinds of
barley, at very full prices.

The malt trade was inactive, at previous quotations,
We had a fair demand for oats—the supply of which
was good, at very full prices.
Beth beans and peas were dull, and lower to sell.
The flour trade was steady.

LINCOLN.

The volunteer movement has at last been taken
up here with considerable spirit. Major Weston
Cracroft, Ancotts, has received the appointment of
captain of the corps formed for this city and
neighbourhood, and at a meeting held at the Guild-
' hall a few days ago, Mr. Arthur Trollope was re-
commended to the Vice-Lieutenant of the county to
be the lieutenant, and Mr. Joseph Shuttleworth
(the mayor) was recommended to be the ensign of
the corps. Mr. Councillor Clayton was appointed
treasurer, and Mr. Councillor Hall, hon. secretary.
The corps, which has been named the First Lin-
colnshire Volunteer Rifles, underwent a day's drill
in the barracks of the Royal North Lincoln Militia,
for the first time on Saturday last, when a large
number of volunteers attended. The uniform
adopted is that of the 60th Rifles with the short. En-
field rifle. The West-common has been selected as a
practising ground, upon which it is proposed to erect
a wall of somewhat large dimensions at a consider.

penses of thecorps a subscription list has been opened,
and about £lOO already subscribed. The members
at present will meet only one day a week for drill,
on Saturdays, at two o'clock.

THE STATE OF TRADE.

LEEDS, OCT. 25.—The woollen cloth trade con-
tinues steady, and prices are firm, but, owing to
a dense fog prevailing during the usual period for
holding the market in the cloth•halls to-day,
scarcely any business was done. A fair amount,
however, was done afterwards outside the halls.
Wool continues firm in price. The next series of
sales of colonial wools in the metropolis has been
fixed for Thursday, Nov. 10. Since the last sales
about 31,851 bales have arrived, viz.,-8,084 bales
from Sydney and Moreton Bay, 3,813 bales from
Port Phillip and Portland Bay, 1,909 bales from
Tasmania, 332 bales from Adelaide, 2,897 bales from
New Zealand, and 14,816 bales from the Cape of
Good Hope.

MURDER ON THE HIGH SEAS.

Charles Annois, a foreign seaman, was placed at the bar
on an indictment charging him with the murder of Philip
Barker on the high seas. A second count charged him
with wounding John Cumming with intent, &c.
The prisoner pleaded not guilty to both indictments.

Just as the trial was about to commence it was found
that two important witnesses were absent, upon which the
learned judges ordered the other cases to be proceeded with.

STEALING A LETTER.

A respectably-dressed young man, named Hughes, lately
in the employ of the Post-office, was indicted for stealing a
letter containing-•two half-sovereigns, the property of the
Postmaster-General.

BRISTOL.

The Bristol Rifles assembled on Saturday after-
noon, and, as on the previous public parade, were
marched through the city to Durdham-down. The
members of the corps are now rapidly completing
their arming. Upwards of 2:50 beautifully made
rifles, with sword bayonets, have been supplied to
members who have purchased for themselves, 125
have been received from the Government stores, and
a second consignment of the same number is daily
expected. Bristol will than be prepared to furnish,
at an hour's notice, 500 well-armed, and, as their
,
field days proe, well drilled and thoroughly efficient
volunteer soldiers, a number which it is confidently
expected will be nearly if not quite doubled before
the ensuing summer. It has been determined to
provide the corps with a handsome sbako,surmounted
by a drooping black plume, for lull dress occasions,
the present cap to be then considered as a sort Of
undress uniform. The 60th Antrim Rifles, under
the command of the Marquis of Donegal, are to
leave Aldershott for llortield-barracks Bristol, at
the latter end of this month or the beginning of
November, and it is expected that the volunteers
will then be brigaded with them.

to be in cotton manufactures, hardwares, machinery.

siderable falling off in the export of wool, and a
moderate decrease in linen yarn.

As regards several of the principal articles, in-

the figures relating to the payment of duties, owing
probably to the unusual activity which prevailed a
couple of months previously. The consumption of
foreign and colonial breadstuffs has also again
diminished.

CORN EXCHANGE.

Notwithstanding that only a limited supply of English
wheat was on offer here to-day, the demand for all kinds
was very inactive. Compared with Monday, however, no
change took place in the quotations.
Fine foreign wheats supported previous currencies ; but
the inquiry for them was by no means active. Inferior
parcels wore almost nominal.

There was a good consumptive inquiry for all kinds of
barley, at very full prices.
The malt trade was inactive, at previous quotations.
We had a fair demand for oats—the supply of which
was good, at very full prices.

Both beans and peas were dull, and lower to sell.
The flour trade was steady.

LINCOLN.

The volunteer movement has at last been taken
up here with considerable spirit. Major Weston
Cracroft, AncDtts, has received the appointment of
captain of the corps formed for this city and
neighbourhood, and at a meeting held at the Guild-
hall a few days ago, Mr. Arthur Trollope was re-
commended to the ice-Lieutenant of the county to
be the lieutenant, and Mr. Joseph Shuttleworth
(the mayor) was recommended to be the ensign of
the corps. Mr. Councillor Clayton was appointed
treasurer, and Mr. Councillor Hall, hon. secretary.
The corps, which has been named the First Lin-
colnshire Volunteer Rifles, underwent a day's drill
in the barracks of the Royal North Lincoln Militia,
for the first time on Saturday last, when a large
number of volunteers attended. The uniform
adopted is that of the 60th Rifles with the short En-
field rifle. The West-common has been selected as a
practising ground, upon which it is proposed to erect
a wall of somewhat large dimensions at a consider-
able cost, to meet which and other preliminary ex-
penses of the corps a subscription list has been open:. d,
and about £loo already subscribed. The members
at present will meet only one day a week for drill,
on Saturdays, at two o'clock.
