THE CUSTOM OF DIJNMOW.—A correspondent
states that the Rev. William Boyle Coghlan, and his wife,
of the Galley Parsonage, Gate-house, N. 8., are accepted
by W. H. Ainsworth, Esq., as claimants for the Dunmow
Flitch, to be presented in September, 1860, on the second
anniversary of their wedding-day—it being considered that
Mr. Coghlan's position as a clergyman of the Church of
England is no bar to their reception of what he and his wife
so earnestly desire.—Essex Herald.
EXTENSIVE ROBBERY FROM THE MIDLAND RAIL-
'WAY COMPANY.—A system of robbery of the most exten-
sive nature has been discovered to have been pactised upon
the Midland Railway Company at Nottingham.r For months
past articles entrusted to the company for conveyance have
been unaccountably lost, and heavy sums have been paid in
some instances as compensation. On Saturday morning,
Mr. Farmer, the detective officer employed by the company,
and Mr. Palethorpe, superintendent of the Nottinghamshire
police, went to the houses of two men named Robert Shel-
ton and John Manchester, in Clifton-street, Lenton, a vil-
lage near Nottingham. On the premises they found lace,
brocade, sugar, tea, tobacco, guns, rifles, a number of locks
for which the company had paid £49 compensation six
months ago, and a quantity of other property, amountino.t,
altogether to over £lOO in value, which has been identified
as having been stolen from the Midland Railway Company:
The prisoners were taken before Lord Belper and the sitting
magistrates at the County-hall, and were remanded for a
week. Both had been in the service 6f the company.

ANOTHER BRUTAL OUTRAGE IN SOUTH STAF-
FORDSRIRI4.—An account of another brutal outrage come
from South Staffordshire. At Sedgley, near Dudley, u.n-
-s
fortunately the scene of too many crimes of a like descrip-
tion, some men were drinking in the Swan Inn, on Satur-
day evening. A quarrel took place, and a young man
named Slater interposed. Two men, one of whom was en •
gaged in the quarrel, and the other his companion, turned
upon Slater, and whilst one beat him about the head with
a jug, the other struck at him with a knife, and wounded
him in the hand. The company interposed and rescued
Slater, but he is seriously injured, and the two fellows are
in custody.
PRICE OF GOLD.—The quotation of gold at Paris
is about dis. and the short exchange on London is 25.10
per £1 sterling. On comparing these rates with the Eng-
lish Mint price of £3 17s. 100. per ounce for standard
gold, it appears that gold is at about 2-10ths per cent. dearer
in Paris than in London. By advices from Hamburg the
price of gold is 423 per mark, and the short exchange on
London. is 13.31 per £1 sterling. Standard gold at the
English Mint price is therefore at about 1 10th per cent.
dearer in Hamburg than in London. The course of ex-
change at New -York on London for bills at 60 days' sight
is about 1101 t per cent., which, when compared with the
Mint par between the two countries, shows that the ex-
change is in favour of England ; and, after making
allowance for charges of transport and difference of inte-
rest, the present rate leaves a small profit on the importa-
tion of gold from the United States.
The Admiralty will receive tenders on the 10th
inst. for the supply of 150,000 lbs. of suet, 50 tons of raisins,
300 tons of sugar, 800 qrs. of split peas, and .240 tons of
salt.
