FRANCE.

PARIS, FRIDAY.
SOlllO malicious reports have lately been circu-
lated concerning Prince Napoleon and the Princess

CI otilda. Amongst other things it was stated the
Princess lived on such terms with her husband that
she was about to retire from France, &c. There is
no truth in such statements. The Princess may
not think herself the mo►t fortunate wife in the
world, but she is certainly by no means unhappy.
The kindness she receives from the Empress, Prince
Jerome, and the members of the Imperial family is
frequently the subject of her conversation to those
who know her intimately, whilst her husband
never fails to show such attention to his bride as
princes intend for affection.

AUSTRIA.

A Vienna letter says :—" It may be remembered
that during the late war, when the Treasury was
exhausted and altogether unable to supply the
urgent wants of the army, the Emperor Francis
Joseph was compelled to make an appeal to the
taxpayers, and accordingly decreed, on May 13, a
very considerable increase on all the direct taxes
throughout the empire; but that augmentation
was to be limited to the duration of the
war in Italy. It was therefore expected that,
after the peace of Villafranca, the taxes would
be reduced to their normal state. That hope,
it now appears, will not be realised, for a
new decree has just appeared, prolonging thein-
creased rate of direct taxes to the Ist Nov., 1860.
The additional burden thus imposed on the tax-
payers amounts to one-half on the land-tax, one-
sixth on the other direct taxes generally, and one-
fifth on the income-tax ; lastly, it is directed that
one-fifth shall be deducted from the half-yearly
payments of the interest of the national debt."

oN TRUE and. FALSE SPERNIATORRIVEA;
with the View to the Correction of wide-spread Errors
in relation to the Treatment and Cure of Sufferers from De-
bility of the Generative system, or Sexual Hypochrondriasis.
Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD.
" 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 non-medical reader. We trust that this may not be the
last, if he shall detect any other equally 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 Urcular.
" We have delayed so long upon the contents of the preli-
minary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for
any notice of the subject specially treated of by Dr. Pickford ;
but the moderate price at which the 'brochure' is sold, places
it within the reach of every one interested in the matter."—

HER MAJESTY'S SHIP SAPPHO,

TO THE EDITOR OF TILE SUN.

Sir,—l enclose a paragraph taken from the Over-
land Summary of the Friend of India of the 16th of
July relative to her Majesty's ship Sappho, Com-
mander Moresby, supposed to have long since foun-
dered on her voyage from the Cape of Good Hope
to Australia. All the officers and men had been, of
course, given up for lost, but, if any reliance can be
placed on this report, they, or at least a portion of
them, are still alive. The Admiralty, if in posses-
sion of such information, ought surely to have made
it public as soon as possible. As nothing appears
to be known here of the important news I trust you
will give it publicity.
I am, sir, your obedient servant,
Sept. 10. R. S. MOLESWORTH.

" Tidings have reached the New Zealand papers
of her Majesty's brig Sappho, which was supposed
to have been lost on her voyage to Australia. She
stranded off an uninhabited island some distance
from Sydney, and became a total wreck. The por-
tion of her crew that was saved formed an encamp-
ment on the island. A merchant ship, when pass-
ing, found them in a very distressed condition. The
few who had survived the exposure were living on
the wild cats and seeds which they found on the
island. Commander Moresby, from grief at the loss
of his brig, had become insane."—Friend of India.

There was a fair supply of foreign beasts and sheep in
to-day's market ; but the number of calves was rather
limited. The trade ruled heavy, at drooping prices.

From our own grazing districts, the receipts of beasts
fresh up this morning ware seasonably good as to number,
but somewhat deficient in quality. For nearly all breeds
the demand ruled very inactive, and in most transactions
prices were 2d per Sibs lower than on Monday last.
The arrivals from Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and
Northamptonshire amounted to about 2,000 shorthorns
and crosses ; from other parts of England, 800 of various
breeds ; from Scotland, 100 Scots and crosses ; and from
Ireland, 240 oxen and heifers.
We were again well supplied with sheep. On the whole,
the mutton trade was in a sluggish state, at Thursday's
decline in the quotations. The extreme value of the best
old Downs was 5s 2d per 81bs.

As the season for lamb is now over, we have ceased to
quote it.
Calves, though in short supply, were a dull inquiry, and
4d per 81bs lower than on this day week.
There was a moderate inquiry for pigs, at late currencies.
The supply was rather limited.

prison punishments, 147 by the scourge. The gross
total cost of the convict prisons in the year (all
charges included) was £284,168 ; the average gross
annual cost per convict was £33 7s. 6d.
The total official cost of the prisons is set down

THAMES,

Mr. John Hall, who has been established in business
many years, and who keeps a first-class ale and beer-house
in the Commercial-road East, at the corner of Stepney-road,
came before Mr. Selfe and asked his advice how he was to
act under the following circumstances :—A person named
Thomas Stowell, who was well known, and who had
brought numerous actions against licensed victuallers and
beer-house keepers, had recommenced his work, and had
served him (Mr. Hall) with a writ for permitting music to
be played in his house. He had a cottage piano to amuse
a few friends and customers twice a week. No charge was
made for admission, and no objection was made to it by his
neighbours, the police, or anyone else, and an action was
commenced by Stowell to recover a penalty of £lOO under
an old Act of Parliament.
Mr. Selfe—You must defend the action in the best way
you can.
Mr. Hall—l wish to know, sir, if Stowell can be com-
pelled to give security for the payment of costs on my de.
fending the action F
Mr. Selfe said he wished to give advice on matters affect-
ing the public peace or the prevention of crime, but he
could not be the legal adviser to the whole district. He re.
commended Mr. Hall to act upon the advice of a solicitor,
was a matter over which he (Mr. Selfe) had no control.
Mr. Hall said he would act upon the magistrate's advice.

CORN EXCHANGE.

Only moderate supplies of wheat were on sale in the
leading country markets held on Saturday ; nevertheless,
sales progressed slowly, at about previous currencies.
There was a fair business doing in spring corn, especially
in fine barley, at frill quotations. Flour, however, was
somewhat neglected.
Throughout the Continent, produce generally continues
to be held at steady currencies, and in the United States
both wheat and flour are selling at comparatively high
rates.
The arrivals of English wheat up to our market last
week were very moderate. From abroad we received 8,457
quarters of wheat, 1,660 of barley, 63,'04 of oats, 830 rye,
21 beans, 65 peas, 40 tares, 8,510 linseed, 5,995 oilseeds, 82
sundry seeds, 400 sacks and 6 barrels of flour.
Fresh up to-day only a moderate supply of English
wheat came to hand, coastwise and by land carriage, and
the condition of the new samples was by no means first-
rate. Compared with Monday last, there was a slight im-
provement in the demand ; but millers generally purchased
cautiously, at about that day's currency, and at which the
bulk of the supply was disposed of.
We were tolerably well, though not to say heavily, sup-
plied with foreign wheat. Good and fine samples realised
previous rates, but other descriptions were very dull, at
late currencies.

Floating cargoes of foreign grain met a slow inquiry.
Fine barley was scarce, and in request at full quotations ;
but light samples moved off slowly at barely late currencies.
We had a fair demand for malt at full prices.
There was a fair inquiry for fine oats, at full prices. In-
ferior kinds were very dull, at barely late rates. Beans
were a slow inquiry, and in some instances prices were a
shade lower.
In the value of peas no change took place. The demand
was by no means active.
The flour trade was steady, on former terms.

The Admiralty having obtained possession of the
ground required for the enlargement of the Royal
Victoria Victualling and Dockyard at Deptford, the
works for the extension will commence forthwith,
its present space being found totally insufficient.
The Channel fleet was off Plymouth on Saturday
afternoon. At half-past 3 o'clock they were under
steam only 31 miles south of the Mewstone coming
from the eastward, and led by the Royal Albert ;
they then edged in towards the Breakwater, under
jibs and spankers only; wind N. by W. The ships
afterwards payed off towards the south, and at 5
o'clock were four or five miles east of the Eddy-
stone, under steam only, apparently going down
Channel. The fleet consisted of the flagship,

THIS DAYS MARKETS

CORN EXCHANGE.

Only moderate supplies of wheat were on sale in the
leading country markets held on Saturday ; nevertheless,
sales progressed slowly, at about previous currencies.
There was a fair business doing in spring corn, especially
in fine barley, at full quotations. Flour, however, was
somewhat neglected.

Throughout the Continent, produce generally continues
to be held at steady currencies, and in the United States
both wheat and flour are selling at comparatively high
rates.

The arrivals of English wheat up to our market last
week were very moderate. From abroad we received 8,457
quarters of wheat, 1,660 of barley, 63,904 of oats, 830 rye,
21 beans, 65 peas, 40 tares, 8,510 linseed, 5,995 oilseeds, 82
sundry seeds, 400 sacks and 6 barrels of flour.
Fresh up to-day only a moderate supply of English
wheat came to hand, coastwise and by land carriage, and
the condition of the new samples was by no means first-
rate. Compared with Monday last, there was a slight im-
provement in the demand ; but millers generally purchased
cautiously, at about that day's currency, and at which the
bulk of the supply was disposed of.
We were tolerably well, though not to say heavily, sup-
plied with foreign wheat. Good and fine samples realised
previous rates, but other descriptions were very dull, at
late currencies.

Floating cargoes of foreign grain met a slow inquiry.
Fine barley was scarce, and in request at full quotations ;
but light samples moved off slowly at barely late currencies.
We had a fair demand for malt at full prices.
There was a fair inquiry for fine oats, at full prices. In-
ferior kinds were very dull, at barely late rates. Beans
were a slow inquiry, and in some instances prices were a
shade lower.

In the value of peas no change took place. The demand
was by no means active.

The flour trade was steady, on former terms.

THE LEEDS MURDER.

The examinat'ou of the prisoner Normington was
resumed on Saturday morning at the Leeds Town
Hall, before Ralph Markland, Esq., and
.other
magistrates. Bearder was also brought up on re-
mand.

After several witnesses had been examined, and
the depositions had been read, the persons in the
dock were ordered to sit down, and
Mr. Barr told the prisoner that he was charged
with the murder of Richard Broughton, on the 6th
of August, near Roundhay.
Mr. Markland then charged the prisoner in the
usual way, and
Mr. Barr asked him if he had anything to say.
The prisoner replied " Yes ; well, it was not me
that did it ; and after observing that he was reliev-
ing himself as the old man passed, he continued—
Just after I had got down I heard, the old man
scream, and I jumped up and saw -the old man sit
down against the stoop in the foot road. I ran with
my breeches down. There was another man stand-
ing over him with a stick over his shoulder. Then
I ran, and the other man overtodk me in Foundry-
lane, and when we had got a little past there he
showed me a watch, and I asked him where he had
got it, and he said he had pushed yon old man
do xn, and then hit him with a stick on the side of
the head and maddled him. I said to him, " Where's
the stick ?" and he said " I have thrown it away."
I said to him, " Have you hurt him?" and he re-
plied, "No." I told him that I had seen a drop of
blood running down his cheek as I set off running,
and I said to him " Thou murderer ! if I had known,
I would not have come up fields with thee ;" and
he replied, " Thou has no occasion to be frightened
as long as it is me that's done it." I said, " Well,
I know thee, and can tell thee when I see thee," and
he replied, " The next time thou sees me it will be
in a farther country." I said, " Well, it doesn't
choose where I see, I shall know thee."
The prisoner was next charged with stealing the
watch.

The Prisoner—l have nothing to say on that
charge.

Mi. Barr—There is a distinct charge that you
robbed the man.
The Prisoner—l did not rob the man. The
other man did, and. I did not know of it until he
had done it.

The Bench then committed the prisoner for trial
at the assizes on both charges.
The man Bearder was next ordered to stand up,
and

Mr. Markland said—There is not sufficient evi•
dence against you on this charge, and, you are
therefore discharged, so far as this case is con-
cerned. If any other evidence transpires we shall
know where to find you.
Bearder asked if he could not have his clothes
hack with him ; upon which
Mr. English said they were in the custody of the
West Riding police.

A QUEER DEFENCE.—Mary Ann Wilson and Catherine
Murray, two unfortunates, were charged before Mr.
Bingham with stealing a purse containing 19s. from the
person of Thomas Horton, a groom, of 20, Brick-street.
The prosecutor said he met. the two prisoners in Park-
lane at half-past twelve overnight, and they asked him to
"stand a drop of gin," which he did, and just as he got
outside of the public-house 'Wilson took from his pocket his
purse containing 19s. He charged them with robbing him,
and they walked off in different directions, but seeing that
Wilson had passed the purse to Murray he dragged her by
her dress after her, and gave them both into custody.
Murrell, 80 C, said be found on Murray 151c1., on Wil-
son 3s. 6d., which she said was all she had. The prosecu-
tor told him that he had four half-crowns in his puree, and
that he changed one at the public-house ; and on Wilson
being further searched by the female searcher, notwith-
standing her denial, three half•crowns were found.

The female searcher said she found three half-crowns in
Wilson's hand, which she kept tightly closed, and. Wilson
told her not to say anything, but keep the money.
In defence, Wilson at first said she "won" the money of
the prosecutor in tossing in front of the bar, she being
"very lucky," but afterwards, on being told by Mr. Bing-
ham that he should remand them, said that she took it
from the prosecutor, but that her companion was innocent.
Mr. Bingham discharged Murray, and said but for Wil-
son's miserable condition, and that the prosecutor had
been foolish in treating such persons, he should have dealt
severely with her. Committed for one month, with hard•
