BOROUGH HOP.

There is a steady, but by no means active demand for
nearly all new hops at full quotations. Yearling and old
qualities continue very dull. The imports last week were
five bales from Hamburg.

Translated from the German of Dr. PIGKFORD.

" Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent
practical contributions to German medical literature. This
is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself
to the nou-medical reader. We trust that this may not be the
last; if he shall detect any other squall y flagrant evil which it
may be in his power to correct."—London Medical Gazette.

" The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers
from this distressing malady by translating this little book,
and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified
adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they
know nothing, with no other object -than .to fill their own
purses. The difference between true Spermatorrhcea and the
various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately de-
scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of
the malady."—Medical Circular.

" We have delayed so long upon the contents of the preli-
minary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space fQr
any notice of the subject specially treated of by Dr. Pickford
but the moderate price at whichthe 'brochure' is sold, places
it within tha reach of every one interested in the matter."—

The half-yearly meeting of this company was held at
Edinburgh on Friday, Mr. T. Hill in the chair, when a
report was submitted, proposing a dividend at the slightly
increased rate of 68. per share, recommending that, as a
debenture of £17,000, held at 5 per sant., fell due at Whit-
suntide, the shareholders applying should be entitled to pay
up to that extent on their shares (the full amount of which
had not been called up) and to receive 4 per cent. on such
prepayment. The report was adopted.

The r-epo-rt stated that the directors recommended a divi.
dend on the ordinary stock of the company at the rate of 6

RUSSIA.

The Journal de St. Petersbourg publishes the fol-
lowing reply of Prince Gortschakoff to the Prussian
proposition of mediation, and states that it is the
only document which issued from the cabinet of St.
Petersburg on the subject :
ST. PETERSBtfRG, JUNE 25.
M. le Baron,—M. do Bismarck has transmitted
to us the propositions of the Berlin Cabinet for
uniting Russia, England, and Prussia in a joint
attempt at a pacific mediation in order to effect a
resumption of negotiations between the powers now
at war in Italy, and to hasten the termination of a
war that excites to so high a degree the solicitude
of Europe.
The mode suggested by the Prussian Govern-
ment is detailed in the despatch of Baron Schleinitz
to M. de Bismarck, of which your excellency will
find the copy annexed to this present.
His Majesty tha Emperor has received most cor-
dially and sincerely this overture from the cabinet
of Berlin. It corresponds with the wish his Ma-
jesty has unceasingly entertained from the very
commencement of the present complications, that of
co-operating with the powers placed, like ourselves,
beyond the pale of the conflict, bat interested, like
I ourselves, in restricting its area and abridging its

Thero was again an extensive show of foreign stock in to-
day's market, in fair average condition.
A fair supply of beasts.was received fresh up from our
own grazing districts, but their general condition was by
no means first rate. Prime Scots, crosses, &c., were in
fair request, at fully last week's prices ; but most other
breeds moved off slowly, at late rates. The top price
was 4s. Bd. per Blbs.

The arrivals from Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and
Northamptonshire amounted to about 1,900 short horns
and crosses; from other parts of England, 400 of various
breeds ; from Scotland, 140 Scots and crosses ; and from
Ireland, 350 oxen and heifers.

The supply of sheep was rather limited, compared with
several previous weeks. For all breeds there was a fair de-
mand at full quotations. Prime Downs sold at 5s per 81bs.

There was a slight improvement in the lamb trade, but
no advance took place in prices. The top figure was 5s 6d.
We have again to report a dull inquiry for calves, at the
late decline in value. The supply was seasonably good.
Pigs moved off slowly, at last week's, currency.

of Conservatism against the mischievous tendencies

A NARROW ESCAPE UPON A RAlLWAY.—lleinrich
Muller, a German sugar baker, a remarkably heavy look-
ing man, was brought before Mr. Selfe, charged with tres-
passing on the North London Railway without lawful ex-
cuse, and with being drunk and disorderly.
Samuel Quested, a guard in the service of the North
London Railway Company, said he was proceeding with
the down train last night about 10 o'clock, and saw the
prisoner on the line crossing the metals. He first ob-
served him on a siding where bricks are placed, and ho
then went upon the main line, crossing in front of the
tender, narrowly escapingdestruction, and went up upon the
up line. The train was stopped, and he went back after
the prisoner, who was staggering, and he seized him,
put him into the break and conveyed him to the Bow sta-
tion. The up train passed directly after he seized the pri-
soner, and if he had not taken him away he would have
been killed, and his body cut to pieces. The passengers
were very much alarmed.
Mr. Selfe—How did he get upon the line ?
Witness—l really don't know. Many trains were con-
tinually passing up and down the line, and I can't under-
stand how he escaped being run down.
Mr. Ellis, travelling inspector on the North London
Railway, said the prisoner was very drunk and disorderly,
and he not only endangered his own life, but put the whole
train of carriages, with their passengers, in peril.

The prisoner in defence said he drank two glasses of rum
and a glass of beer, and some hock (German beer), and it
got the better of him
Mr. Selfe—You ought to be thankful you were not killed.
It is a sad thing, by your propensity for strong drinks, you
put your life in danger. It was God's providence you were
not killed. You are a very foolish fellow, and you owe
your life, in a great measure, to the activity of the guard
who stopped the train and picked you up. You are fined
20s. for unlawfully trespassing upon the railway.

THE BUILDERS' LOCK-OUT THIS DAY).—It
was anticipated that this morning would bring about some
change, but, contrary to expectation, the workmen's resolve
not to sign the obnoxious declaration remained unshaken, and
all the workshops and buildings in the metropolis appear
doomed to continue in the same inactivity that they have
remained in during the last fortnight. This morning
having been appointed for the payment of the first dividend
from the Conference to the men locked out, an immense
assemblage of the operatives took place in the vicinity of
the Paviors' Arms, Johnson-street, Milbank, and at noon
not less than 12,000 men were collected on Milbank and
the adjacent streets. Several additional remittances arrived
yesterday from all parts of the country, and it is stated that
there is upwards of £20,000 in hand. All the men enrolled
as lock-outs, whether society men or nnt, received the divi-
dend. It is expected by both masters and. men that several
weeks must yet elapse before anything.hke a satisfactory
adjustment of the dispute can be arrived at. The men
boast they can stand it for three months,

RUSSIA.

The Journalde St. Petersbourg publishes the fol-
lowing reply of Prince Gortschakoff to the Prussian
proposition of mediation, and states that it is the
only document which issued from the cabinet of St.
Petersburg on the subject :

ST. PETERSBURG, JUNE 25.

M. le Baron,—M. de Bismarck has transmitted
to us the propositions of the Berlin Cabinet for
uniting Russia, England, and Prussia in a joint
attempt at a pacific mediation in order to effect a
resumption of negotiations between the powers now
at war in Italy, and to hasten the termination of a
war that excites to so high a degree the solicitude
of Europe.
The mode suggested by the Prussian Govern-
ment is detailed in the despatch of Baron Schleinitz
to M. de Bismarck, of which your excellency will
find the copy annexed to this present.
His Majesty tha Emperor has received most cor-
dially and sincerely this overture from the cabinet
of Berlin. It corresponds with the wish his Ma-
jesty has unceasingly entertained from the very
commencement of the present complications, that of
co-operating with the powers placed, like ourselves,
beyond the pale of the conflict, bat interested, like
Ourselves, in restricting its area and abridging its

ONE HUNDRED POUNDS REWARD ON

CONVICTION,

The fearful dangers to invalids from spurious imitations of
DU BARRY's invaluable HEALTH-RESTORING REVA
Eli TA ARABICA FOOD led to an investigation, and,
upon application in 1854 for protection, the High Court of
Chancery granted an injunction restraining Alfred Hooper
Nevill, and his agents, under a penalty of 18,000, from selling
any article resembling or being a colourable imitation of Du
Barry's Revalenta Arabica, of which we are the sole pro-
prietors. Now, therefore, this is to give notice that the above
reward will be paid, upon conviction, to anyone giving infor-
mation of any breach of the injunction. An intelligent
public requires no admonition to shun all shopkeepers who
may attempt impositions. London : BARRY DU BARRY

There wail again an extensive show of foreign stock in to-
day's market, in fair average condition.
A fair supply of beasts,was received fresh up from our
own grazing districts, but their general condition was by
no means first rate. Prime Scots, crosses, &e., were in
fair request, at fully last week's prices ; but most other
breeds moved off slowly, at late rates. The top price
was 4s. Bd. per 81bs.

The arrivals from Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and
Northamptonshire amounted to about 1,900 short horns
and crosses; from other parts of England, 400 of various
breeds ; from Scotland, 140 Scots and crosses; and from
Ireland, 350 oxen and heifers.

The supply of sheep was rather limited, compared with
several previous weeks. For all breeds there was a fair de-
mand at full quotations. Prime Downs sold at 5s per 81bs.
There was a slight improvement in the lamb trade, but
no advance took place in prices. The top figure was 5s 6d.

We have again to report a dull inquiry for calves, at the
late decline in value. The supply was seasonably good.
Pigs moved off slowly, at last week's currency.
