MAIN-DRAINAGE COMMITTEE.

Mr. FREEMAN brought up a report from the
Main-Drainage Committee, recommending that
Mr. Francis Evelyn Houghton be appointed, during
the pleasure of the board, as superintendent of the
Crossness Pumping Station, at a salary of £3OO a
year, with free allowance of coal,-gas, and-water.
The committee also recommended that those men
mho would be permanently located at the Cross-
ness Pumping Station should have an allowance of
gas, coal, and water for the use of themselves and
families.

The CHAIRMAN suggested that the chief engineer
(Mr. W. Bazalgette), should report to the board as
to the amount of spare land at the station, with a
view of a division of it amongst the workmen, to be
appropriated to growing vegetables, which would
be of great benefit to them, and it would at the
same time be a source of healthy recreation. He
stated that as these workmen had upwards of a
hundred children, it was the duty of the board, in
such an isolated spot, to provide them with a place
where they could be educated, or they would be left
necessarily without any education whatever.
Mr. ROCHE opposed this latter suggestion, urging
that it would be a dangerous step for the board to
take in interfering in religious education in any
class whatever, for if they once undertook to pro-
vide education of one denomination, there would be
an immediate claim on the part of the Roman Ca-
tholics and Dissenters, which would lead to feelings
of dissension if their demands were not complied
with.
After some discussion, the suggestions were em-
bodied in a motion and referred to a committee.

ment about three quarters of a mile. Jazabel led Dover's

Patron—Her Most Gracious Majesty the QUEEN.
Vice-Patron—His Royal Highness the Prince of WA LES gm

This Hospital, founded in the year 1828, the first to estab-
lish the principle of free admission to the sick poor, without
the delay and difficulty of Governors' orders. is wholly de-
pendent for support on voluntary contributions and t a tes.
It affords relief to a large number of in-patients, and, in
addition to this, the average number of attendanoe of the
destitute sick has for a considerable period averaged between
8,000 and 4,000 weekly.
The Committee earnestly solicit the ASSISTANCE of the
benevolent, as the premises of this Hospital are capable of
containing several nundred more beds, had the Committee
the requisite funds to maintain them.

EARLY WOODCOCKS.—A cloud of woodcocks must
have just passed over Cornwall, judging from the number
of communications we have received testifying to wood-
cocks having been shot here or there. The first of which
we have record this autumn, however, was shot by Mr.
N. Kendall, M.P., near St. Austell, as long ago as the sth
inst.—Western Morning News.
CHAMPIONSHIP OF THE SEINE.—This champion-
ship was contested for on Sunday afternoon, between the
Pont de Is Concorde and the Pont d'lena, under the
auspices of the Sport Nautique de la Seine Society. A.
great number of persons assembled to witness the race, for
which, however, there were only four competitors entered.
The length of the course was about three-qaarters of a
mile. A good start was effected, but it was soon evident
that the race was in the hands of Mr. Gosling, who gained
ground at every stroke, coming in a winner at his own
pace. Mr. Gosling is a young Englishman, who has
already carried off numerous first-class prizes at the French
regattas during the season, and, at this time, in addition to
the honour of the championship of the Seine, ho wins a
handsome gold medal and a work of art.

MANSION-HOUSE.

A DRUNKEN DRlVER.—Christian Black, a pork butcher,
carrying on business at Deptford, was charged before Mr.
Alderman Finnis under the following circumstances

City-constable 736 said that yesterday about one o'clock
he was on duty
in King William-street, and saw the pri-
soner driving a horse and cart in the direction of
Loudon-bridge, and he was at the wrong side of
the road. The cart came in contact with an
omnibus horse, and the shaft entered the horse's breast and
came out at the shoulder. The horse was taken to a
veterinary surgeon, but he believed it was dead. As the
prisoner seemed quite drunk, he took him into custody,
and he was bailed out about half-past six in the afternoon.
He seemed to be quite unconscious of what had occurred.
The proprietor of the omnibus said he valued it at £2O,
and on being informed that the court had not the power
to award more than £lO in a case of loss or,damage, he
decided on bringing an action in the County Court.
The prisoner admitted that ho was drunk, but said he
was not so far gone as not to be able to take care of the
horse, and that the accident occurred through the slippery
state of the street.

The prisoner was fined 405., which he paid.
ROBBERY BY A FOREIGNER.—Auguste Dues, a German,
was brought up on remand, charged with stealing a
portmanteau containing different articles of clothing, the
property of Victor Mahner, a Swiss.
From the evidence it appeared that Mahnor and thirteen
other men, who had just arrived from America, went to an
hotel in the Crescent, Minories, bringing their luggage
with them. The portmanteau was placed in the hall, and
on the prisoner, who had been staying in the house, leav-
ing about an hour after Mahner's arrival, it was missed.
Mahn(); who was going to France, declined to prosecute,
but the proprietor of the hotel gave the prisoner into cus-
tody. The prisoner was traced to a lodging-house, kept
by a person named Seers, in Ship-alley, Wellclose-square,
where the prisoner had been lodging,
and the portmanteau
was found there. The prisoner was taken into custody at
a public-house on the Bth inst., but he denied any know-
ledge of the portmanteau.
Another charge was preferred against the prisoner this
day of having stolon a pair of gold ear-rings and other
articles from the lodging-house of Seers.
The prisoner was remanded.

NEWMARKET.

This morning we had a large number of horses in real
good work, and amongst them several Cambridgeshire
nags. Ostregor was leading Actma a mile and a half, and
Broomielaw was galloping a like distance with Out-and-
Outer, Vespasian, and Mineral, the Scheldt and Breadal-
bane doing very little. Saladin and Jollity had a mile and
three-quarters gallop ; and Charley Blanton was working
the Duke of York and Harefield freely, Tormen-
tor being quiet. Peeress sweated. The American
string were in active training, and Paris was
going uncommonly wall. Peon's legs are very
"dickey." Il Re Galantuomo showed temper. The
Squite galloped about two miles. Regalia worked by her-
self, as usual, and Caithness took Chepstow a mile and a
half at a clipping pace, the latter pulling hard all the way.
Mount Palatine did rather better than a mile, and Cotton
gave Robin Hood half a mile further than that. The senior
Hayhoe sent Dalesman, Guinivere, and Tomahawk a mile
and three-quarters, and they moved beautifully. Green
was exercising Medina, and Nash paying attention to Clax-
ton. Jennings was bowling Sultan, Fleurette, and Puebla
for a mile and a half, and Roland galloped nearly a couple
of miles in the presence of his owner and trainer, Charley Ray-
ner, whom we wore pleased to find convalescent. Lightning
and Countersign were doing literally nothing; but young
Hayhoe gave Ambition a rattling mile and a half gallop.
The principal two year olds at work this morning included
the Hermit, D'Estournel, The Rake, Knight of the Garter,
Stradbroke, Dragon, Friponnier, Pericles, Cerf Volanta,
and Trocadero ; but of these D'Estournel and The Rake
exorcised the least, the others doing about a mile each. We
also saw the following animals getting forward :—Lochaber,
Pedagogue, Stolen Kisses, Satyr, Imporator, Sunnylocks,
Star of India, Bombastes, Jasper, Janne, Julius, Falken-
stein, Littleport, and Court Card.

Mr. John Groves, clerk, engaged at 28, Eastcheap, said
he was in'company of Mr. Lynch when the assault took
place. Another person was also present. Cowell came in
with about 10 or 12 persons. He saw Mr. Lynch hold up
his hand as if to protect his property, but he did not see
the pin taken away The prosecutor was quite sober when
he was attacked, and he loft the public-house to look for
the police. He did not know how the pin was lost.
Mr. Paul, a surgeon, gave evidence to show the extent
of the injuries received, which were very severe.
Mr. Denny, who appeared for the defence, having
addressed the magistrate,
_ . _

Mr. Vaughan said if he had to deal with the case he
should more than problably send the defendant to prison
for some time; but under all the circumstances he thought,
as the assault was a very aggravated one, he should send
it for trial by a jury.

Mr. Denny hoped the magistrate would do nothing of
the kind.

Mr. Vaughan said if, after what he had stated, it was
wished for him to decide the matter, he was quite ready
to da so.

Mr. Denny said he had not yet examined the wit-
nesses on behalf of the defendant, who was a most respect-
able man.

Mr. V au elan said he would defer doing so until that
day week.

The prisoner was then remanded, but was Admitted to
bail.

THE GREAT Su ROBBERY. —Abraham Marks was again
placed at the bar on remand, charged with stealing a large
quantity of silk of the value of £BOO. The evidence against
the prisoner was completed to-day, and he was fully com-
mitted for trial.

Naval and Military Intelli,;enee.

The Vulcan iron screw troop-ship, after having

her return from Chink was removed to the steam

cluding the 121-ton gun which has undergone a
course of experimental firing on board the gunnery
ship Excellent at Portsmouth, and is now returned
to the Royal gun factory to be re-vented. The cargo
also comprised several thousand Armstrong shot in
transit from Bermuda, Montreal, and other foreign
stations, now ordered out of stock, and to be re-
placed by Major Palliser's chilled shot for service.

The further test of one of the 64-pounder rifle
guns constructing on Mr. Fraser's plan, as suggested
by Col. Campbell, superintendent of the Royal gun
factories at Woolwich, for testing the exterior or
jacket of the gun, has been completed in the mos+
satisfactory manner according to the usual systematic
proof. During the whole course of the experiments
the outer jacket of wrought-iron had to sustain the
brunt of the explosion, as the inner tube had been
worn and split in three places by the severe test to
which it had been formerly applied. Notwithstand-

A PRECOCIOUS TIIIISF.--Georgo Sherry, aged 13, was
brought before Mr. Paget charged with stealing two
packets of cocoa in a get teral shop, 35, Stracey-street,
Stepney.

Eleanor Tingay, the pros 3cutrix, said that she was in
her parlour and saw the pria Dner enter her shop, walk to
the end of her counter, and tt ',lv) up two packets of cocoa.
She entered her shop, and the prisoner, with much appa-
rent simplicity, said, " A ha'po.,-th of bread, mam." She
told him he had stolen her cocoa, and took the two packets
out of his pockets.

Stephen Moore, a police-constabt:e, 609 A, said the pri-
soner was in custody last week for stealing a bottle of
vinegar from. the shop door of an oil a zd colourman in the
Commercial-road. He was then allowed to go at large
owing to the reluctance of the prosec utoz- to proceed against
him.

Mr. Paget—Where did you buy it ?
Prisoner—ln a shop, to be sure.
Mr. Paget—No, you did not. Will yt )u be tried by me
or at the sessions ?
Prisoner—lll be tried by you.

Mr. Paget—Very well. I find you guilt- of stealing the
cocoa, and sentence you to three montl ►s' imprisonment
and hard labour in the House of Correctic

STABBING A BoY.—Henry Miffen, aged 28, and Otto
Berger, 22, German shoemakers, of No. 62:, Cannon-street-
road, St. George's-in-the-East, were brought before Mr.
Paget, charged with stabbing a boy whose name was not
mentioned.

George Macarthy, a koutcher, stated that at five minutes
to 11 last night he saw Miffen kick a lad, and he said to
the prisoner "Why did you kick him ?" The prisoner
made no answer, and kicked him again. The boy bit the
prisoner, and the latter ran away. The boy ran after him,
and Berger then handed a knife to Miffen, who stabbed the
boy with it. The boy called out, "I am stabbed, lam
dying." The boy was carried to the hospital.'

The house surgeon of the London Hospital said the boy
was stabbed on the left side, just over the heart. He was
happy to say the wound was not dangerous.
The prisoners said that several boys aggravated them.
Mr. Paget remanded the prisoners.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET,

SAVAGE ASSAULT.—Jane Hogan, a young roman, was
charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with the following assault
on another young woman named Mary Hayes, residing in
Market-street, Newport-market.
The complainant said—Yesterday afternoon I was stand-
ing talking to my mother in Gerrard-street, when the pri-
soner, without the least provocation being given, came up
to me and struck Ine several times, tore my hair, and bit
my arm.
Faulkner, 340 A, said that on going up I saw the pri-
soner holding complainant's hair with both hands, and
biting the complainant's arm. 1 produce some of the com-
plainant's hair which the prisoner had in her hands.
Prisoner—And I produce some of my own which the
complainant pulled out. I've got quite as many marks
as the complainant. We had a fight—

Complainant—There was nothing of the kind.
Mr. Tyrwhitt— The prisoner will have 40s. to pay or a
month. Violent women must be checked as well as men.

WESTMINSTER.

OFFENDING THE PUBLIC DECENCY.—John Williams, a
country lad, about 17 years of age, was charged with wil-
fully destroying his clothes in the casual ward of St.
Luke's Workhouse, Chelsea.

William Coombes, the porter, said that the prisoner 'was
admitted as a casual last night on a police order. At half-
past six Lthis morning he visited the casual ward, and
found prisoner sitting up in his bed, tearing up his cloth-
ing. He asked prisoner why he tore it up, and he said it
was in a bad state. His clothes certainly were very bad,
but they were so fit to wear that they would not offend
public decency.
Prisoner said ho went to King-street,Whitehall station,
to get an order for St. Martin's Workhouse. The sergeant
on duty told him he was not fit to walk about, as he was
indecent. He then wont to Chelsea Station to get an
order. They made no remarks to him. He tore them
up as they were indecent.
Mr. Arnold told prisoner he should have applied at the
workhouse to get better clothes, and not tear them up to
compel the workhouse authorities to give him fresh
clothes.

Prisoner said ho had asked for them and been refused.

Mr. Arnold sentenced the prisoner to 14 days' hard
labour.

fTONEY MARKET

AND

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENOI,

TWELVE O'CLOCK.

The Money Market presents no special feature.
Very few bills are in circulation, because there is a
probability that a reduction may be made to-morrow
in the official minimum, although should the present
quotation be continued for another week little sur-
prise would be evinced. The best bills are negoti-
able at 4 per cent., and bankers' acceptances at 3i
per cent.

The Stock Exchange Markets show little altera-
tion of importance. The English Funds are being
steadily maintained through the distribution of the
dividends, and Consols are 891 for money, and
891 for the account. Foreign ;stocks and some
of the principal shares are at slightly enhanced
value.

THE CITY GAOLS.

Mr. Alderman and Sheriff WATERLOW brought
up a report of the state of the City gaols, by which
it appeared there are at present in Newgate 112, in
the Debtors' prison (Whitecross-street) 124, and in
Holloway prison 291 prisoners.
Upon the motion of Alderman WILSON, the ser-
mon preached by the Rev. M. Gibbs, the Lord
Mayor's chaplain, on Michaelmas-day, was ordered
to be printed, and a copy sent to each member.

LORD MAYOR'S DAY.

The usual orders having reference to the preven-
tion of obstructions in the streets on Lord Mayor's
day were then made, and Colonel Frazer, the com-
missioner of police, was authorised to make any
arrangements he might think proper with regard to
the employment of the police, and the closing of
certain thoroughfares in the line of the procession,
subject to their being approved of by the General
Purposes Committee.

THE CORPORATION PLATE.

Ald2rman COPELAND gave notice of a motion at
the next Court that a committee be appointed to
examine the condition of the plate at the Mansion-
house, and also whether it would be advisable to
make some additions to it. He said that formerly
it was the custom for £lOO worth of additional
plate to be purchased upon the occasion of every
mayoralty, but the practice had been discontinued;
and he believed that at present the plate at the
Mansion-house was not in the condition it should
be, and that it was not equal to what was possessed
by many other corporations in the country. His
object, therefore, was that the subject should be
inquired into.

MARK LANL.

English barley came slowly to hand, and the show of
foreign was by no means extensive. Fine malting parcels
were in steady request, at full prices ; The trade was

heavy.
•
Malt was firm on former terms.
A fair average business was passing in oats, at Monday's

currency.
Beans and peas were operated in to a fair extent, at late
rates. _ ..

The flour trade was firm. Country marks were held for
more money. The top price of town-made flour was 53s
per 2801bs.
Fresh up to-day the arrivals of English wheat coastwise
and by land carriage were only moderate, but, on the
whole, in good condition. For all qualities the trade ruled
firm, and sales were readily effected at the advanced prices
of Monday.
The show of foreign wheat was moderate. In all kinds
sales progressed steadily, and the recent improvement was
well supported.
Floating cargoes of wheat were firm in price. In other
kinds of produce afloat a moderato business was transacted
at late rates.
