THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, JAMTARY 30, 1866,

rebels were duly tried by court-martial, and those
executed were found guilty upon what was believed
to be sufficient evidence. lam told that, so far
from denouncing people by wholesale, he actually
saved many persons whose lives might otherwise
have been in jeopardy. We shall hear and see more
of him hereafter; and I offer no opinion as to the
value of his statements, or the extent to which they
were corroborated. I believe he said that he saw
hundreds of negroes take the oath. In point of fact,
two oaths seem to have been administered—one of
them pledging to secrecy ; the other binding to
some plan of action ; but, though many of the
negroes admitted before execution that they had
taken these oaths, none would disclose their terms.
The following address to Mr. Eyre, dated Decem-
ber, 1865, is being largely signed throughout the
colony, and is only one of many to the same effect :

MEXICO.

Private letters from New Orleans confirm the
capture of Bagdad on the sth by a Federal regi-
ment of coloured infantry-. Colonel Davis, their
commander, seized some skiffs, wherein he crossed
the Rio Grande, and captured and sacked Bagdad,
killing numerous persons. Three hundred pri-
soners were also taken, half of whom subsequently
turned Liberal, and formed the garrison of the
town, the attacking force then disappearing.
On receiving this intelligence Generals Crawford
and Escobedo immediately started for Bagdad, and
the former arriving first assumed the command.
General Weitzel refused to allow any one to
cross the river until Escobedo arrived. Escobedo
requested of Weitzel 200 men to preserve order,
and the request was granted. A French corvette
shelled the town all through the 6th without

damage.
A conflicting despatch says that Escobedo, the
commander of the post, had only about a dozen re-
liable men in Bagdad, the remainder having joined
Crawford, who had them on board the steamer
which was tied to the bank of the river at Bagdad.
The Herald's correspondent from the city of
Mexico states that on the 3d the Republicans cap-
tured Toluca six miles from the capital. All the
imperial forces at the capital under Marshal Bazaine
had left to recapture Toluca.

PARK.

Mr. Trn, M.P., drew the attention of the board to a bill
which had passed the House of Lords for the establishment
of gasworks near Victoria-park, and which had been the
subject of discussimi last, night in the House of Commons.

In answer to Mr. Berosfordlope, the Chief Commissioner
of Public Works had said he had no locus stanch to oppose
the bill, but he (Mr. Tite) thought it was hd.rd after the
board had spent so much money in improving the approaches
to this park that such a nuisance should be brought to it as
the establishment of gasworks.
The CHAIRMAN said the board had opposed the bill in
the house of Lords, where they required powers to take
100 acres of land, and it was therefore clear they intended
the erection of a nuisance on a gigantic scale, and it could
not fail being a great injury to those who were in the habit
of frequenting the park. Tho House of Lords had limited
the powers to the taking 37 acres, but still its existence at
all would be exceedingly objectionable, and would destroy
the public utility of the park.
" " •

After some further discussion it was ordered that a peti-
tion should be presented against the bill in the House of
Commons, and that the solicitor should take all steps in his
power to oppose the bill in committee. •

LAW INTELLIGENCE--(This Day).

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Goulbufn).
IN RE NORRIS, THE LATE M.P. FOR ABINGDON.
This bankrupt, who was formerly M.P. for Abingdon
and a Common Councilman for Aldersgate Ward, was de-
scribed as a printer of Aldersgate, and to-Jay he came up
to pass his last examination and for the order of discharge.
The assets show a total indebtedness of £74,262, of which
£30,998 is duo to creditors unsecured, and £42,671 to
creditors secured. The assets consist of good debtor
£9,952, doubtful £2,981, property £9,782, property held
by creditors £35,413, and deficiency £16,127. The ex-
penditure of the bankrupt for his wife and family has
been at the rate of £1,250 per annum. Amongst the
creditors holding security are Mr. Alderman Besley for
£3,000.

Mr. Linklater, for the assignee, said he was quite satisfied
with the accounts, and had no objection to the bankrupt's

passing.
Mr. Beswick, on behalf of two apprentices, asked Mr.
Norris as to the indentures, and the bankrupt said that
the boys were bound in his establishment, but the
premium went to the foreman of the department in which
the boys were apprenticed.
Mr. Beswick said it was a very bad case.
Mr. Linklater remarked that there was no hardship in
the case, as the boys were transferred to Mr. Norris, jun.,
and were now being taught their trade.
His Honour, then granted the order of discharge.
A good dividend is expected.

FO
HOMELESS WOMEN AND CHILDREN,
14A, Providence-row, Finsbury, E.C.
Sixty Thousand Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and
Breakfasts, have been given in this Institution to the
destitute, who otherwise would have had to pass the
nights in the bleak streets or under railway arches.
At present nearly 500 Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and
Breakfasts, are given gratuitously every week. The poor
from all parts aro admitted, the only condition being that
they are homeless and starving. The Manager, eze
receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand-
ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each
night numbers of young women, children, and orphans
are, for want accommodation, refused admittance, and have
to spend night after night in the cold, wet, and sleet. To
meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda-
tion, £2,000 has been raised, but to accomplish the
work a sum of at least £l,OOO more will be required.
Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it
is prop,,,sed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur-
pose will allow, to give bread and coals to poor families
in want. Will you, in your charity, help to carry on and
accomplish what has been begun ? Will you help to give
shelter to the really homeless, and food to the really
starving ? The smallest donation will be most welcome,
and, night and morning, the prayers of the destitute will
be offered in your behalf.
SUBSCRIPTIONS are earnestly requested, and will be
gratefully received by the liev. D. GILBERT D.D., NQ. 22,

METROPOLITAN CATTLE.

There was a full average supply of foreign stock on sale
here to-day. Its quality, however, was very middling,
The demand ruled steady at full quotations.
The arrival of beasts from our own grazing districts, as
well as from Ireland and Scotland, were only moderate,
but in excellent condition. Although the demand for all
kinds was inactive, prices ruled the turn higher than on
Monday last. The general top figure was ss. 2d., but some
very inferior Sccts and crosses produced ss. 4d. per 81bs.
From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire we
received about 1.000 Scots, crosses, and short-horns, from
other parts of England, 600 various breeds ; from Scotland.
295 Scots :and crosses; and from Ireland, 50 oxen and
heifers.

There was a good supply of sheep in the pens, mostly
out of the wool. The mutton trade was slow ; neverthe-
less, very high prices were realised. Prime Down and
half-breeds in the wool sold at from 7s. to 7s. 4d. ; out of
tho wool, 6s. per 8 lbs.

Prime lambs were scarce and in good demand at 9s. per
8 lbs., otherwise the lamb trade was heavy at late rates.
Calves were in short supply and fair request on former
terms, viz., from ss. 4d. to 6s. 4d. per Blbs.

In pigs very little was doing, at;d;prices had a drooping
tendency.

PARK•

Mr. TITS, M.P., drew the attention of the board to a bill
which hadpassed the House of Lords for the establishment
of gasworks near Victoria-park, and which had been the
subject of discussion last night in the House of Commons.
In answer to Mr. Beresford Hope, the Chief Commissioner
of Public Works had said he had no locus standi to oppose
the bill, but he (Mr. Tite) thought it was hard after the
board had spent so much money in improving the approaches
to this park that such a nuisance should be brought to it as
the establishment of gasworks.
The CHAIRMAN said the board had opposed the bill in
the house of Lords, where they required powers to take
100 acres of land, and it was therefore clear they intended
the erection of a nuisance on a gigantic scale, and it could
not fail being a great injury to those who were in the habit
of frequenting the park. The House of Lords had limited
the powers to the taking 37 acres, but still its existence at
all would be exceedingly objectionable, and would destroy
the public utility of the park.
After some further discussion it was ordered that a peti-
tion should be presented 'against tho bill in the House of
Commons, and that the solicitor should take all steps in his
power to oppose the bill in committee.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE.

There was a full average supply of foreign stock on sale
here to-day. Its quality, however, was very middling,
The demand ruled steady at full quotations.
The arrival of beasts from our own grazing districts, as
well as from Ireland and Scotland, were only moderate,
but in excellent condition. Although the demand for all
kinds was inactive, prices ruled the turn higher than on
Monday last. The general top figure was ss. 2d., but some
very inferior Sects and crosses produced ss. 4d. per 81bs.
From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire we
received about 1.000 Scots, crosses, and short-horns, from
other parts of England, 600 various breeds ; from Scotland.
295 Scots :and crosses; and from Ireland, 50 oxen and
heifers.

There' was a good supply of sheep in the pens, mostly
out of the wool. The mutton trade was slow; neverthe-
less, very high prices were realised. Prime Down and
half-breeds in the wool sold at from 7s. to 7s. 4d. ; out of
the wool, Gs. per 8 lbs.

Prime lambs were scarce and in good demand at 9s. per
8 lbs., otherwise the lamb trade was heavy at late rates.
Calves were in short supply and fair request on former
terms, viz., from ss. 4d. to 6s. 4d. per Blbs.
•

In pigs very little was doing, and:prices had a drooping
tendency.

Adelphi Theatre.

At Vic'
On Saturday evening an adaptation of ---•
torien Sardou's comedy, " La Famille Benoiton't
by Mr. B. Webster, jun., entitled the " Fast
Family," was produced at this theatre. The pie:h
cannot be said to be exactly suited to an pie:
audience, because there are various portions 0' ca
which persons of right feeling and good taste w°11:
have wished omitted ; yet, notwithstanding
the comedy elicited great applause, and inust4oB
pronounced a success. The " Fast Family" eonsis a
of an elderly retired tradesman, M. Benoiton,
his three daughters and two sons, all of whom are
more or less decidedly "rapid." Blanche the eldest,
has married a man of business, M. Didier, who
with his wife and infant son resided in Benoiton
mansion—thus the sayings and doings of the faso
family are presented to the audience. The twa
_
unmarried daughters, Rose and Camille, atte nt
races, make bets, dress in a sensational style, s;if
their chief speculation is a rich husband. a
Benoiton boys, one Polydore is a fast student, 9130
the other, Fanf an, is a spoilt child ; and when Wo
have mentioned the names of a selfish oldgentlenlao

to
r‘i
married daughter of Benoiton, although
degree improved by her marriage,
now and then given to extravagance ; this the huof
band discountenances, and the principal feature 1 by
the piece is the jealousy and unhappiness caused b;s
the refusal of the husband to provide funds for e 5
wife to purchase some expensive lace which she sou'sepa!
not need. This leads to a temporary
and then the wife is supposed to have fallen loos
e
the snares of -the Viscount de Champrose, heca tea
is still eel,
when next she is met by the husband the ee've,es
lace is in her possession. The husband reproae.'idst
his wife, she retorts on him, and in the 1111 to
of the misery Mdme. Clotilde attempts
restore peace, but her good intentions only tell airo
increase the quarrel. While this state of 01,0
reigns in the married circle,we are permitted to ta.
a peep into the sayings and doings of the unmarritebue
We pass over the questionable actions a
lila_
Benoitons, and come to the matrimonial cafe
oro
tions of Prudent, and certainly anything Into
humorous cannot be imagined. Of coupe
end suspicion is removed from the wife, she resivir.,o
to study her husband's happiness, and all deter/11e
to live wiser and better. Miss H. Simms,tilo
extravagant wife, threw her whole energies i10:to
part and gave us a very powerful deline3t'°
while Mr. Billington, as Didier, acted with ra°l:
than ordinary care. Mrs. Mellon delighted tie
audience with the warmth and geniality of her 3,-t
ing, and Mr. P. Bedford and Mr. Toole were all that
could be desired ; in fact a finer piece of geniii-o,
comedy has rarely been performed by thelatter gent
tlemen. We have, in conclusion, to coraPlin'hich
the rest of the company for the manner in lc--
they supported their respective parts.

MARK-LANE.

The country markets held on Saturday were quiet for
wheat. The best samples steadily supported previous
rates, but inferior qualities were rather cheaper. Barley,
oats, beaus, and peas met a slow sale, at last week's cur-
rency. The flour trade was quiet, on former terms.
On the Continent the corn trade generally is quiet, on
former terms. At New York the trade for wheat and flour
is very firm, and an advance has taken place in the quo-
tations.

But moderate supplies of English produce were received
up to our market last week. The imports from abroad
consisted of 17,304 quarters of wheat, 3,349 barley, 41,502
oats, 110 rye, 409 beans, 45 tares, 10,544 linseed, 3,169
maize, 110 sundry seeds, and 529 sacks of flour.

Fresh by to our market to-day the amount of English
wheats were only moderate, but the condition of the
samples was tolerably good. The trade for all qualities
was firm, and an advance of Is. to 2s. per quarter from
Monday last was demanded. Sales, however, progressed
slowly, at an improvement in the quotations as compared
with this day se'nnight, of ls. per qu,,,rter.

The supply of Continental wheat on sale was moderate
—of American qualities small. The trade for all descrip-
tions ruled firm, at very full prices.
Floating cargoes of wheat were iu improved request,
and prices were lather on the advance. Spring corn,
afloat, ruled steady.
The market was very moderately supplied with English
barley, but the show of foreign qualities was good. The
demand ruled inactive, at last Monday's currency.
Malt was in but moderate request, at late rates.
Oats were in good supply. Good and fine samples were
in steady request, at full prices ; but inferior qualities met
a slow sale, at late rates.

Beans were in supply, and the trade ruled firm, at an
advance in prices of is per quarter.

No change took place in the value of peas. The trade
was quiet, although the market was very moderately sup-
plied.
There was a fair demand for most descriptions of flour,
at late rates.
