DEVONSHIRE.

The members of the Exeter •Rifle Corps are con-
stant in their attendance at drill, and the progress
they have made is deemed by competent military
authorities most satisfactory. In the rural districts
of the extensive county of Devon efforts, it is ex-
pected, will soon be made, in accordance with the
suggestions of Mr. T. D. Acland, made a few days
ago at a meeting of some troops of the Devon Yeo-
manry Corps. Mr. Aciand's plan is to get the yeo-
men and sons of yeomen living near together to
meet regularly and receive elementary drill in the
use of the rifle, and thus, by getting a few centres
of such riflemen, a good force would soon be ob-
tained.

CORN EXCHANGE.

To-day's market was very scantily supplied with English
'wheat, cosultwise and by land carriage. Tho attendance of
millers war far from numerous; nevertheless, a clearance
of stands was easily erected at fully Monday's advance in
the quotations of 2s per qr.
Fine foreign wheat was in request, and, in come instances,
prices were a shade higher. Other qualities sold to a fair
extent, at fully previous rates.
Floating cargoes were active, and tho currencies had an
upward tendency.
There was a food consumptive inquiry for barley at ex-
treme rates.

Fine malt realised previous quotations. Inferior parcels
were a slow sale.

Oats were in improved request at 6d per qr more money.
Beans and peas commanded very full prices, and country
flour was held for more money.

HALIFAX.

This corps, formed at Halifax a few months ago,
is now in a most efficient condition. During the
summer and fine autumn months the corps met
daily, some in the morning and others at night, but
now the members arc so well up in their movements
that two days a-week arc sufficient, one day in the
riding-school and the other in the Piece-hall. They
are fully equipped with arms and uniform. A band
of able musicians, too, has been organised, and is
to be attached to the corps. They were sworn in
as members before the Mayor of Halifax last
Saturday. The corps numbers, independent of
the band, about 100 members, and about 30
more are waiting to be sworn in. A field has been
taken at a short distance from the town, and there
rifle practice is carried on. The corps contains some
excellent marksmen.

STRIKE IN TILE BUILDING TRADE.

Last night the usual weekly meeting of the
Trades Delegates in support of the men at present
on the lock-out, in consequence of their declining
to sign.the document, was held at the Shaftesbury-
hall, Aldersgate-street, Mr. C. Murray in the chair.
Mr. POTTER explained the circumstances under
which tne Conference had abandoned the strike at
Messrs. Trollope's, and hoped that as that obstacle
had been removed, the other trades would support
them in resisting the document. As the masters
had in the first instance treated the Conference
with hauteur, they did not communicate the with-
drawal of the strike to the central committee of
master builders, but Mr. Wales, the secretary of
that body, had written to the Conference to com-
plain of their silence ; that letter being considered
a rocognition of the Conference by the masters, a
correspondence was now pending between both for
the settlement of the dispute. He hoped, should
the masters adhere to the document, the other
trades would support the Conference in resisting it.
The delegate of the Compositors said that the
withdrawal of the strike was all his society re-
quired, and that if the masters did not, in return
fir that concession, retire from the document, the
Conference would still receive the support of the
body he represented.
The delegate of the Amalgamated Engineers, in
announcing that he had paid into the Conference
£l,OOO, voted by his society, explained that the
vote had been made without any condition, either
in reference to the strike or to unskilled labourers
participating in the division.
The subscriptions for the evening amounted to
about £lBO.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

UTTERING FORGED CHEQUES TO WEST-END 110TEI-
KEEPERS.—Augustus Crowell Scott, a respectable-looking
man, and who ropresontod himself as a captain in the army,
was charged before Mr. Bingham, by Silvester, a sergeant
of the A division, with uttering forged cheques to b.otol
keepers.

Great interest appeared to be felt in the case, the court
being much crowded.

From the evidence partly gone into on the former occa-
sion it may be remembered that the prisoner was charged
with uttering a cheque on Messrs. Beckett's bank, Leeds,
for £•1 10s., in payment of his bill at Maurigy's Hotel, Re-
gent-street and Watcroo-place, and on the cheque being
takont to the Commercial Bank, Henrietta-street, Covent-
garden, it was sent to Leeds, and returned by Messrs.
Beckett, unpaid.

Mr. George Booth, solicitor, now appeared for the pro-
secution.

Emmerson Crawford, clerk to Messrs. Beckett and Co.,
Leeds, said the cheque produced was sent down to their
bank by the Commercial Bank of London, and it was re-
turned to that bank, no person of the name of John Charles
Crowley having an account at their bank.
Sergeant Silverton, 293 A, said he took the prisoner into
custody at Fenton's Hotel, St. James's-street, and on ask-
ing about the cheque at Maurigy's, where he had lodged,
ho said it was a mistake, and that he had not lodged there.
He (Silverton) told him that it was not the first time he
had made a similar mistake, and took him into custody.
Mr. Booth said the next case was that of uttering a forged
cheque at Mr. Fenton's, of St. James's-street. where the
prisoner had been staying for 13 days—the cheque being
signed Augustus Scott, on Messrs. Tow and Co., bankers,
Wakefield and Pontefract.

Mr. Francis Edward Fenton, Fenton's Hotel, St. James's-
street, said the cheque prodaced for £l6 17s. was sent to
his banker's (ikhaving been received from the prisoner),
and after being sent to Wakefield, was returned unpaid a
few days afterwards.
Mr. Booth said it would be observed that the cheques
bore different names. He wished for a remand in Mr.
Fenton's case for the attendance of a person from Wake •
field.

—The prisoner (against whom, but for the witnesses being
in America, a charge of larceny at Mr, Fenton's would be
preferred) was then remanded,

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 he 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 Spermatorrhoea and the
various forms of disease which resemble it arc accurately de-
scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of
the malady.".HMedical Circular.

" 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."—

ONE HUNDRED POUNDS REWARD ON
CONVICTION.
The fearful dangers to Invalids from spurious imitations of
DU BARRY's inval sable HEALTH-RESTORING REVA-
LENTA ARABICA. FOOD led to an investigation, and,
upon application in 1354 for protection, the High Court of .
Clianeery granted an injunction restraining Alfred Hooper

any article resembling or being a colourable imitation of Du
Barry's Revalenta At abica, of which we are the sole pro-
prietors. Now, therefore, this is to give notice that the above

VOLUNTEER CORPS.

The following arc the minutes of a meeting held
at Spencer-house, London, on the 29th of October,
1859 ; present—the Earl Spencer (chairman), the
Earl Grosvenor, M.P., the Lord Elcho, M.P., the
Lord Vernon, Capt. Wilbraham Taylor, Capt. Tem-
plar, Capt. Gladstone, Mr. G. Russell, and Mr. A.
Boyle.
" The members present of the Committee for a
National Volunteer Rifle Meeting, appointed at
Irythe, on the Ist of August last, resolved, that a
similar project having been entertained by some
members of the London Rifle Brigade, it is expedi-
ent that the above committee should be dissolved,
as they are most imxious that the movement should
become a national one, and as they feel that with-
out complete union among those interested, this
object cannot be attained.
" The meeting agreed to the following resolutions
as the basis of the proposed association :
" 1. It is proposed to form a national association
for the encouragement of volunteer rifle corps and
the-promotion of rifle shooting throughout Great
Britain. _ _

"2. The association shall consist of all persons
subscribing annually the sum of or giving a
donation of . There shall be a patron and presi-
dent elected by the council 'vice-presi-
dents and a council elected at the general meetings
of the association, the council consisting of

ordinary and extraordinary members, or whom one-
third shall go out of office in each year, but shall be
eligible for re-election. There shall also be a paid
secretary and treasurer in London, and honorary
corresponding secretaries in such parts of the
country as may be fixed hereafter.
" 3. Meetings of the association shall be held
periodically in different parts of the country, to
which the several corps will be invited to send a
certain number of their best shots, who will com-
pete for prizes according to the School of Musketry
at Hythe. Prizes will also be offered for competition
by riflemen, whether connected with rifle corps or
not': Gen. Hay will be requested to act as umpire.
" 4. The prizes given by the association for the
encouragement of volunteer rifle corps shall be open
to all members of such corps qualified as above.
The prizes given by the association for the general
encouragement of rifle shooting shall be open to all
persons on payment of as entrance money.
" 5. It is contemplated that the association shall
also offer prizes for the improvement of firearms,
sighting of guns, or anything relating to the science
of rifle shooting.
" 6. It was resolved to hold a meeting of those
friendly to the proposed association at the Thatched-
house Tavern, on WAnesday, the 16th November,
at one o'clock; and the members of the present meet-
ing agreed to communicate with their friends, and
such others as are likely to attend, in order that the
association may be established on a satisfactory
footing, Lord Elcho undertaking to communicate
with the Lord Mayor, and to request his lordship's
attendance and co-operation on behalf of the Lon-
don Rifle Brigade.

PIMLICO.

Last night a public meeting of the general com-
mittee of the Queen's Volunteer Rifles was held in
the hall of 43, Lower Belgrave-strcet, Pimlico. Mr.
E. Stephens, deputy-chairman, in the absence of
Earl Grosvenor, chairman, presided on the occasion.
The committee of this corps have been holding
their meetings for the purpose of organisation for
some time past in this district, but hitherto their
meetings have not been made public. Earl Gros-
venor has been chosen Colonel ; the uniform has
been decided upon and fully approved ; it is similar
in colour to that of Lord Elcho's, as worn by him at
Hythe. The shooting is about to be adopted for
practice. The corps drill three times a-week in
Westminster-hall, and now number upwards of 100
effective members, besides a large addition of
honorary members. _ _

A communication was submitted to the meeting,
received from Messrs. J. R. and A. W. Jaffray, pre-
senting to the corps a donation of £2l. A large
number of single annual subscriptions were also re-
ceived •, also another donation from Mr. W. Holle-
bone of five guineas.
Among a numerous body of new members, the fol-
lowing candidates were proposed and unanimously
enrolled as eifect ive members :—Earl of Durham, the
Hon. Evelyn Ashley, Mr. Hastings Russell, Mr.
John Woodford ; also, Messrs. J. R. and A. W.
Jaffray and W. Hollebone were enrolled as honorary
members.

It was unanimously resolved that Lord James
Butler, an effective member, should be a member of
the committee.

Reports from two sub-committees appointed for
the incorporation of St. Gabriel's Volunteer Rifle■
in a neighbouring district of Pimlico with this corps
were received, stating that the incorporation had
been effected.

The meeting deemed this a highly advantageous
and satisfactory arrangement, and the reports were
unanimously adopted with applause. The selection
of the uniform was again reopened, and the subject
of some discussion, whereupon it Iva? resolved that
a gray serge jacket for drill should be at Once
adopted._
Mr. RUSSELL (hon. secretary) announced that he
had just been at the War-office, and secured 25 more
Enfield rifles, which would beready by the next drill
meeting.
It was further announced that a general parade
of the effective members of the corps would take
place this evening (Wednesday), at half-past 6, in
Westminster-hall, for the inspection of Major-
General Hay, of the School of Musketry at. Hythe.

After a dte cusk.ion, in which the meeting unani-
mously repudiated any idea of amalgamation with
St. George's Volunteer Rides, as stated by them at
their last meeting, and after the despatch of routine
business, the proceedings terminated.

STATE OF TRADE.

LEEDS, Nov. 15.—There has been rather below
than over an average attendance of buyers in the
cloth-halls this morning; and the same may be said
as to clothiers. All things considered, the season
of the year and the small variety of new goods
offered in the public markets, a fair amount of busi-
ness has been done. The general condition of the
trade continues steady, and prices are firm.
MANCHESTER, 15th.—In yarns there has been a
good business this morning for all markets, anal
prices have advanced another 4- d. per lb. upon the
rates of Friday last. The principal foreign buyers
have been those for the markets of Germany, India,
and China, most of whom have operated freely.
The home trade have also done a good deal of
business, and almost all counts and qualities of
mule twist, including fine spinnings, are in request.
For water twist there aro also some heavy con-
tracts in hand, and 60's doubled and upwards par-
take in the advance of prices. In cloths there has
been less actual business than this day week, but
the inquiries made with a view to operations have
shown more fully how extensive were the pur-
chases of last week. Mercantile men of some ex-'
perience say that they never recollect the market
so bare of stocks before. Domestics, which Lave
so long been neglected to an extent that left prices
barely remunerative, and in many cases not equal
to the cost of production, are now exceedingly
scarce and difficult to buy. Lang-cloths, T-cloths,
and printing cloths are also scarce, with manufac-
turers in many cases engaged for months forward.

A BOY SHOOTING AT A FEMALE IN LEEDS.-At

the Leeds Town Ila en Monday a youth named Samuel
Johnson, cloth-dresser, Charles-street, was charged with
having tired a pistol at Miss Jane Woodhead, daughter of
Mr. Woodhead, &c., Chorley-lane. Shortly after
nine o'clock in the morning, Miss Woodhead was walking
towards Caroline-street, when she met the defendant and
two or three other boys. As she approached them, the
defendant, addressing his companions, said, " Watch me
fetch this lass down to the ground," and suiting the action
to the word, he presented a pistol and fired into her face,
the powder nearly blinding her and greakdisfiguring her
face. Miss Woodhead screamed out, and a man who was
passing, named William Kenrick, observing what had oc-
curred pursued the mischievous lads, who, however, reached
Mr. Booth's factory, in Chorley-lane, where they were
working. Policeman Griffin apprehended Johnson, and
found two pistols in his possession. In his defence, the de-
fendant stated that he was not vware there was a cap on
the pistol when ho fired. Ho was remanded until the next
day, in order that the medical man who had attended. Miss
Woodhead might•be present.

THAMES.

COMMITTAL OF AN OLD COAT STEALEIL.—John Brown,
alias Cushion Brown, alias Dennis Hayes, a labourer, who
appeared in great want, and was described as 47 years of
age, and dwelling in Flower and Dean-street, a place solely
oocupiod by thieves and loose characters, was brought be-
fore Mr. Selfe, charged with stealing a coat and a silk
handkerchief, tho property of Richard Tucker, alabourer in
the London Dock.

Yesterday afternoon the prisoner was leaving the Lon-
don Dock at the principal gate, when Philip Bindley, a
police-constable, No. 137 H, recognised him as an old thief,
and asked him where he get the coat from ho was wearing,
to which he replied that it was his own. Bradley took him
into custody and took from the prisoner a coat which ho
was wearing over an old one not worth a shilling. In one of
the pockets was a silk handkerchief. The coat and hand•
kerchief were identified by a labourer named Richard
Tucker, in the employ of the London Dock Company, who
hung his coat up in the Eastern Dock Warehouse at ten
o'clock in the morning.

The prisoner said ho was guilty, and that ho was not
allowed to work in any of the docks, and was in groat want.
John Cressy, a police-constable, 221 11, said there wore
four or five convictions recorded against the prisoner. Ho
was present on the sth of September, 1853, when the pri-
soner was convicted for stealing two coats in the London
Docks, and sentenced to twelve months' imprisonment and
hard labour. The prisoner was at the same time convicted
of assaulting witness and sentenced to three months' im-
prisonment and hard labour.

Mr. Selfe—l have convicted him sinco then.

Pussy—Yes, sir, you sentenced him to six months impri-
sonment and hard labour for stealing a coat in the London
Dock. He has been bonvictod on other occasions for steal-
ing coats. A great many coats have been missing in the
London Dock, and the prisoner, who was formerly employed
there, was suspected of being engaged in all those robberies.
The prisonor said he could not obtain any work.
Mr. Solfo—l don't wonder at that. You appear to be an
incorrigible thief.

Pussy—And the prisoner has been convicted of embez-
zling 2s. 6d. which was paid to him by mistake by a clerk
in the London Dock.

Mr. Selfo—There is quite enough on the depositions with-
out stating that. I shz.ll not convict the prisoner sum-
marily on this occasion, but commit him to the session's for
trial.
London, England, 1859-11-16

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

UTTERING FORGED CIIEQUES TO WEST-END HOTEL-
KEEPERS.—Augustus Crowell Scott, a respectable-looking
man, and who represented himself as a captain ii the army,
was charged before Mr. Bingham, by Silvester, a sergeant
of the A division, with uttering forged cheques to hotel-
keepers.

Great interest appeared to be felt in the case, the court
being much crowded.

From the evidence partly gone into on the former occa-
sion it may be zemeuibered that the prisoner was charged
with uttering a cheque on Messrs. Beckett's bank, Leeds,
for £4 10s., in payment of his bill at Maurigy's Hotel, Re-
gent-street and Watoroo-placo, and on the cheque being
takent to the Commercial Bank, Henrietta-street, Covent-
garden, it was sent to Leeds, and returned by Messrs.
Beckett, unpaid.

Mr. George Booth, solicitor, now appeared for the pro-
secution.

Ennuerson Crawford, clerk to Messrs. Beckett and Co.,
Leeds, said the cheque produced was sent down to their
bank by the Commercial Bank of London, and it was re-
turned to that bank, no person of the name of John Charles
Crowley having an account at their bank.

Sergeant Silverton, 293 A, said he took the prisoner into
custody at Fenton's Hotel, St. James's-street, and on ask-
ing about the cheque at Maurigy's, where he had lodged,
he said it was a mistake, and that ho had not lodged there.
He (Silverton) told him that it was not the first time he
had made a similar mistake, and took him into custody.
Mr. Booth said the next case was that of uttering a forged
cheque at Mr. Fenton's, of St. James's-street• where the
prisoner had been staying far 13 days—the cheque being
signed Augustus Scott, on Messrs. Tow and Co., bankers,
Wakefield and Pontefract.

Mr. Francis Edward Fenton, Fenton's Hotel, St. James's-
street, said the cheque produced flir £l6 !.7s. was sent to
his banker's (it having been received from the prisoner),
and after being sent to Wakefield, was returned unpaid a
few days afterwards.

Mr. Booth said it would be observed that the cheques
bore different names. He wished for a remand in Mr.
Fenton's case for the attendance of a person from Wake •

The prisoner (against whom, but for the witnesses being
in America, a charge of larceny at Mr. Fenton's would be
preferred) was then remanded.

THORLEY'S FOOD FOR CATTLE.—Vvery
person having an interest in domestic or farm animals
should obtain a supply of this celebrated and economical
food, which will prove invaluable during the approaching
season. For keeping horses in good condition it is unequal-
led. Pigs fatten with surprising rapidity upon it, and their
flesh increases in flavour and value. Cowkeepers will find
great advantage in the increased quantity and improved qua-
lity of the milk during its use. All animals are benefitted by
it. A pamphlet on this interesting subject, accompanied by
Testimonials from the principal Nobility, Gentry, and Agri-
culturists, forwarded on application. In casks containing
448 feeds (measures enclosed), price 505., carriage paid to any
Railway Station in the United Kingdom. Post-office orders
payable to Joseph Thorley, 77, Newgate-street, London.
N.B.—The public are cautioned against being imposed upon
by worthless imitations.

NORWICH CATTLE-JAN. 29.

There was a large show of store cattle to-day, consisting
of Scots, shorthorns, Irish, and Devons. Sales were very
fair, but at the close of the market one-fourth remained un-
sold. The selling price for Scots was 4s to 4s 6d ; short-
horns,i3s 6d to 4s 6d ; Irish, 3s to 3s 6d per stone of 141195.

—very prime, 8s 6d per stone.
Sheep—Fat sheep, 8s Od to 8s 6d, prime lots 9s per stone.
Pigs—Good store pigs, 15s to 18s per head. Fat pork,

[ADVERTISEMENT,]—HoIIoway's Pills.—When we con-
sider how uncertain are I;fe and health and their value is
appreciated by all human beings, it is strange indeed to
observe how often men neglect the means of preserving
these blessings at even the most trifling cost. They psi
heavily to insure their premises from fire, or their goods
from accident on flood and field, but they often put off until
it is too late, the _expenditure of a few shillings on a box o f
Holloway's pills, which they might keep by them as an un-
failing safeguard, as a charm which will protect the pos-
sessor against all diseases. They must certainly do good •
If used according to the instructions given with each box,
they never fail.

GALWAY POLITICS.

Mr. John Orrell Lever is in the field for the
borough of Galway. The following is a copy of
the placard in which he positively announces his
intention of seeking from the ratepayers and free-
men of Galway the support which he so justly
merits.

"TO TILE ELECTORS OP GALWAY.

" Electors of Galway, reserve your votes I I will have the
honour of addressing you and soliciting our suffrages in a
few days. "JOHN ORRELL LEVEE.
" Glasgow, Jan 31."
A letter from Galway, dated last night, says:—
"As yet no other person has announced his inten-
tion of starting, but probably they may think
it premature as yet. Mr. Roebuck will move
the writ for this town on the first day of the
meeting of Parliament, and there is every proba-
bility that it will not be opposed. Mr. Lever left
to-day for the metropolis, but will return on next
Wednesday, accompanied by Lord Bury and several
directors of the company, when he will issue his
first address to the constituents in case of a writ
being granted. The strongest feeling exists in
favour of Mr. Lever, who, it is said, will have a
I walk over."
