Nearly all the reports of the condition of the crops
in Yorkshire which we publish are less encouraging than
we could desire. Tho almost uninterrupted rains of the
last two or three weeks have not only retarded the in-
gathering of the wheat crops, which, when our last reports
were supplied, it was anticipated would give an excellent
yield, but have excited no small anxiety, as to the future.
The dry winds which have prevailed, however, prevented
sprouting to the extent which would have occurred had
the ',rains been followed by a warmer Lenperature ; and
from most districts our correspondents concur in stating
that, should we be favoured with fine dry weather for two
or three weeks, ate very gloomy anticipations which some
have entertained will happily not be realised.—Leeds Mer-
cury.

TRAWLERS AND. HERRING-FISHERS.—A case of
some importance was heard before the Tynemouth
county magistrates on Monday. Thomas Losh, the master
of the Trawler Gauntlet, was charged with coming within
thi co miles of herring-boats and damaging the nets belong-
ing to the Beehive, of the Isle of Man, while fishing off
the Northumberland coast on the 17th of August. By the
Convention Act between England and Prase° trawl,ng
vessels of both countries aro not allowed to come within
three miles of craft engaged in the herring fisyng., and if
they do so they are held liable for any damage that may
be done. The Gauntlet fouled the Beehive's nets and had
destroyed 15 of them, and the master after having cut
them, had made off and refused to give his craft's name.
He was fined 20s. and costs, and was ordered to pay £75
for the damage done to the nets. He appealed to the Court
et Quarter fiessions.

Our market to-day was but moderately supplied with
beasts, chiefly iu middling condition. For most breeds the
inquiry ruled steady, but by no means active, at Monday's
currency. Tho tcp quotation was ss. 6d. per Blbs. The
show of sheep was only moderate. On the whole the
mutton trade was firm, at extreme rates. The best Downs
and half-breds realised fully 6s. 4d. per 81bs. Calves were
quite as dear as on Monday, with a steady inquiry, and
prices ranged from 4s. 6d. to ss. 6d. per Blbs. The pork
trade was in a sluggish state, at late rates.

always believed, that the process of Dixon and Co.
was protected by an American patent, and that
they had not discovered that this was not the case
until the proceedings before the police-court.
As the defendant was not heard, and the decision
turned entirely upon the right of the plaintiffs to
relief, having regard to their wrongful assumption
of the term " patent," we do not enter into the case
of the defendant upon the merits.
Mr. Daniel, Q.C., and Mr. G. W. Hemmings,
on behalf of the plaintiffs, contended that an extreme
and flagrant case of robbery of the plaintiffs' desig-
nation was established against the defendant, and
that although the Court declined to interfere in
these cases between wrongdoers, yet this principle
of outlawing a plaintiff from the protection of the
Court would not be applied where no fraudulent
intention could be attributed to him, and where

there was some ground for making the representa-
tion. The plaintiffs had adopted the term " patent"
in perfect good faith, and under the impression that
Dixon and Co. were patentees ; and although they
had been mistaken, there had been nothing ap-
proaching to intentional misrepresentation on their
part such as would induce the Court to withhold
relief.

Mr. Giffard, Q.C., Mr. Haddan, and Mr. Freel-
ing for the defendant were not called upon.

The Vice-Chancellor dismissed the bill with costs,
observing that the conduct of the plaintiffs in
making a representation as to these crucibles being
patented without any reasonable ground for
posing such representation to be true was the same
n the eye of the law (however innocently made,
and however innocent in its effects upon the public),
as a simple and deliberate attempt to defraud and
mislead the public. In the contract of purchase
from Messrs. Dixon there was not a syllable about
any patent, and even if the plaintiffs (who might
have ascertained the fact by searching the American
records) did believe that Dixon and Co. held a
patent, why did they use such a stamp, " Morgar
and Co., J. Dixon and Co.'s Patent," as woulc:
necessarily lead the public to believe that the patent
under which these crucibles were being sold was
English, and not American? It was not like con-
tinuing to call an article patented after the patent
had expired, but it was an application of the term
to that which had never been patented at all, either
in this country or in the United States. By pro'
tecting the plaintiffs in the use of their title the
Court would be assisting them to mislead and de-
ceive the public, and under all the circumstances
the bill must be dismissed with costs.

WES TMINS TER.

AN INCORRIGIBLE YOUNG FEMALE THlEF.—Harriet
Childs, a pretty-looking girl 12 years of ago, was placed at
the bar, before Mr. Selfe, charged with stealing a large
bundle of knitting cotton from the shop of Mrs. Augur,
28, St. George's-place, Knightsbridge.
The son of the prosecutrix said that in consequence of
several pounds of expensive wools having been stolen
during the last week, ho kept a watch upon the shop this
morning when the prisoner presented herself as the shutters
were being taken down, and said she wanted to buy a
thimble. Availing herself of the man who was opening the
shop turning his back, the prisoner slipped behind the
counter and adroitly stole a bundle of cotton, with which
she was making off when witness stopped her, and al-
though the cotton was taken from her she denied the
charge.
Prisoner—lf you will forgive me this time I will never
do anything wrong again.
Mr. Selfe•-.ls anything known of this child ?
Mr. Augur said that, upon inquiries, he found that
although so young she was very old in crime. He had
taken her to her mother when she was detected in the com-
mission of the felony, and she informed him that she was
a most incorrigible thief, and that all attempts to reclaim
her had been unavailing.
Mr. Selfe—ls her mother here ?

Tke police observed that sho was not.
Sergeant Purchase, 10 B, said that to his knowledge the
prisoner had been twice charged at this court with felony
during the last few months.

Prisoner-1 will never do it again.
Mr. Selfo —Yes, you will if you have the opportunity, of
which I will endeavour to deprive you. Although so
young you are a little practised, hardened thief, and I
shall send you for three years to an industrial school.
The child's parents are respectable people.

The following is a portion of a communication to-
clay addressed by a member of the Cabinet to a friend
of the Administration in New England, who seemed
to be apprehensive that the difficulties between the
President and Congress might induce action on the
part of the former which would tend to widen the
breach if it did not put important interests in peril.
The member of the Cabinet says :
" Notwithstanding his long public career, few
men seem to be less understood than President
Johnson. That he is a man of strong convictions
and earnest purposes is evident from the manner in
which he advocated and pushed forward important
measures in Congress, like the Homestead Bill, and
the stand which he took against secession and in
favour of the Government during the late civil war.
He believes that the manner in which he pro-
posed that the Government should deal with
the Southern States was not only a mag-
nanimous one, but the only one likely to re-
sult in a speedy and hearty reconciliation be-
tween the sections, and he has felt it to be his duty
to sustain his views by the exercise of such powers
as the Constitution had clothed him with. But
while this has been, and doubtless will continue to
be, his course, he will violate:no law, nor fail to per-
form the duties which are legally devolved upan
him. He will veto every bill that he may regard
unconstitutional, no matter how unpopular it may
be for him to do so ; but he will execute with scru-
pulous fidelity all laws, and especially those to which
he has declined to give his Executive sanction.
The apprehension which you seem to feel, and
which many others share with you, that Mr. John-
son will attempt to force Southern representatives
into Congress, or do any other imprudent thing by
which the public peace will be disturbed, or the
public credit be deranged, is utterly unfounded.
While he will exercise fearlessly the power which
he possesses under the Constitution, in furtherance
of the measures which he thinks are best calculated
to promote the public weal, he will not quarrel with
Congress for pursuing the same independent course.
He regrets the disagreement between the Legisla-
tive and Executive branches of the Government,
and would, I doubt not, yield much to effect a re-
conciliation. He will not, however, sacrifice his
principles nor violate the Constitution, according to
his interpretation of it, no matter what pressure
may be brought to bear upon him. He seems to do
right as he understands the right, and will trust to
time for the vindication of his course. He will be
as true to the Constitution and the Government as
President of the United States as he was true and
steadfast to the Union in the darkest days of its
trials."

the constant attendance of the chaste Diana). A line of _
torch-bearers and soldiers keeps an avenue open, at the
end of which is the balcony of honour, and beneath that
balcony are the spolia °pinta of the deer deceased. I mean
no pun. I hope lam above joking on a subject so serious _
as the chase. At a given signal the great windows of
the palace open, and the Emperor, the Empress, and
their suite come on to the balcony, and then the hounds
arc loose.; and after being twice or thrice head back and ,
baffled, are permitted to " worry" the offal of their hunted
deer. Torcles are gleaming—bayonets glistening —the
"horn of the hunter" is hoard in the courtyard—Merry-
man and Marksman quarrel over a tit-bit—ladies in hake-

aloud with a vulgar delight—the men who, perhaps against

JEREMY CATNACII, OF SEVEN DIALS.--TO him
is due the honour of first publishing " songs three
yards a penny"; a price which, in former times, was
charged for a single ballad. His accumulated stock of
songs, last dying speeches, murders, doubtful slanders, dtc.,
was something immense; and prior to retiring from busi-
ness, he is said to have amassed a fortune of over £lO,OOO.
During Queen Caroline's trial ho could not produce his
sheets, "beautifully illustrated," fast enough to supply the
demand. His hand-presses were going day and night, and
many a weighty load of "coppers" his journeymen took
away with them ; for, as we have been informed by an
old journeyman printer, he always paid their wages in
coppers.—The Stationer and Fancy Trades' Register.

The Pound Sterling.

A correspondent of the New York Journal of
Commerce states the following as the data from
which to calculate the value of a pound sterling
In England 22 ounces of pure gold are mixed
with 2 ounces of alloy ; this is called 22 carats fine,
and is valued at £3 17s. 10d., 2 grains an ounce.
In the United States 90 ounces of pure gold is
mixed with 10 ounces of alloy of no value. 100
ounces of coin is worth $1,850 46 ; an ounce 01
coin is worth $lB 60.
One ounce of pure gold, 1,000 fine, is coined into
$20.67 18-100.
A sovereign of England (new) weighs 5 dwts.
3 grains (worn ones not so much), and passes for 3
pound.
By the above statement you may compute the in'
trinsic value of a sovereign or pound. By the hell)
of a little arithmetic you will find that a pound
sterling is $4 86-3 mills, and a little over.
Less than 100 years since one of the States passed,
a law that if any one owed 28 shillings he should
be allowed to settle it with a guinea, which W
called 21 shillings, and weighed 5 dwts. 9 grains.
Since then the British Mint changed the coinage,
and made sovereigns of 20 shillings.
Twenty-one sovereigns to go for 20 guineas. The
21 sovereigns contain more pure gold than 20 gui-
neas by several shillings value.
The United States (1803) made eaglets with 3
cap on the head weighing 11 dwts. 6 grains, 11-12
fine, at $lO ; they were then more valuable than
silver. In 1832 Congress made them a tender for
$10.66, and made a new coinage with the hair
curled, 9-10 fine, which are the eagles that people
now talk about, but do not often see.
And by the changes of the coinage of two nations
you may see why a pound was once called $4.111:
and now $4.84 to $4.85. New pounds are worth
$4.86 38-1000, if not worn.
The habit is still to call the pound $4-44 4, an
5d
then add 91 per cent., which brings it up to $1 80
for a pound. By this incongruity of calling th
.
pound one sum, and estimating it at another, tlw
contradiction is presented that exchange between
England and the United States is really at I)3t'
when it is nominally at 91 per cent. premium in
favour of England.

INDIAN TRAMWAY.

'The half-yearly general meeting of this company
was held yesterday at the offices, Moorgate-street ;
Sir Macdonald Stephenson iu the chair.

The report, an abstract of which has appeared in
The Sun, was taken as read.
The CIIAIR3IAN, in moving the adoption of the
report, said that although another meeting must be
shortly convened to receive and consider the deci-
sion of the Secretary of State with reference to the
future extension of the company's operations in
India, it would be as well to recur to the past. The
company's railway of 19 miles in length had been
completed at a cost, in round numbers, of £3,000,
with £2OO for general charges, and £7OO for rolling
stock, in all £3,900 per mile. The further expenses
incurred were for interest on capitalduring construc-
tion, and on account of other proposed lines in the
three Presidencies. The year's traffic receipts bad

NEWMARKET.

Harlock gave Lord Brownlow, the three Toxophilito
colts, and the Barbatus colt out of a West Australian
mare, three smart canters; and Peter Price galloped Re-
galia a mile and three-quarters, Chepstow a mile and a
half, and Stradbroke about a mile, Barrington and the rest
cantering. Mat Dawson set Julius, Aaron, and Bombastes
to gallop a mile steadily, and they went uncommonly
strong and free, the Flying Scud, Archimage, and Pericles
also acquitting themselves well. From Gilbert's we
had D'Eitournel and Ravioli, and the first-mentioned
galloped so beautifully tl•at it is a great pity ho is not in
the Two Thousand, for ho looks as if he was quite good
enough to b 3 dangerous to the cracks therein. The Hermit
showed early, and went a mile and a quarter with Knight
of the Garter, Blinkboolie, and Pedagogue; Thornby, King
Charles, and Tempest being this morning restricted to gentle
canters. The Dragon galloped about a mile first rate, as
did Eachanteur and Itnperator; Trocadero,Longehamp, and
Genf Volante trotting. The Rako had several brisk canters,
but did not gallop. Van Amburgh, however, galloped a
mile and a quarter, Friponnier leading him. Cecrops and
Friday took Guy of Warwick, Numa Pompilius, Londes-
borough, Ettrick, and Cyclone briskly. Hippia had a nice
mile and a quarter gallop with Janus, and Jasper followed
Falkenstein a similar distal:me, also quietly. Amongst tho
other animals , out we noticed Gladiatour, Vespasian,
Mount Palatine, Vandervelde, Star of India, Argentel,
Beauclerck, Assineboine, La Puce, The Miss Erskine colt,
Apsley, Honesty, Highwood, Littleport, The Arrow

NOTES
FROM
TRAINING DISTRICTS

(THIS DAY).

NEWMARKET.
The Bury Hill was well patronised this morning,
and about the earliest out at exercise was D'Es-
tournel, who followed Leybourne in some smart
trotting and cantering, and then went a mile and a
quarter gallop. Ravioli galloped about a mile, led
by Sealskin. The Rake had a nice steady gallop
with Friponnier of over a mile ; and Van Amburgh
went for nearly a mile and a half, at a quiet pace
though. The Hermit galloped a mile and a bit ;so
did Knight of the Garter. Stradbroke went better
than a mile, sharpish. Dragon trotted and can-
tered, but Enchanteur and Imperator had a
mile gallop at a fair speed. Broomielaw
is leading the Hermit. Trocadero trotted
with Gladiateur, Wild Agnes took Avron,
Archimage, and Honesty a mile and a quarter ; and
Bombastes led Julius, Pericles, and Flying Scud a
similar gallop. Amongst the other animals in
healthy exercise were the Nailor, Apsley, Nike, La
Puce, Vespasian (leading yearlings), Breadalbane,
Blinkhoolie, King Charles, Pedagogue, Tempest,
Assineboine, Beauclerk, Friday, Cecrops, Cyclone,
Ettrick, Londesborough, Numa Pompilius, Guy of

Mann is gradually recovering, R. Cotton is seriously
indisposed. A report is current here that Jemmy
Grimshaw is to be married to one of Joe Saxon's
daughters iu the early part of next year.

MALTON.
The weather is still unsettled, and the N olds are
exceedingly heavy, but Grand Cross, Taraban,
Knight of the Grove, and Wild Wind continue to
gallop a mile and a quarter each favourable niorn-
ing, led by Knight of the Crescent.

RICHMOND.
Plaudit galloped a mile and a-half steadily to-day
with Strathconan, being specially wanted for the
Rowley mile encounter. Rose had a similar gallop
with Newland. Plaudit's half-brother, the Proctor,
progresses most satisfactorily.
