THAMES.

LEAD STEALING. Robert Allen, a labourer, was
brought before Mr. Yardley, charged with stealing a quan-
tity of sheet lead, the property of Mr. Percy Poole, a mea-
sure manufacturer, in the Isle of Dogs, Poplar.
It appeared from the evidence of a lad named James
Bridge, in the employ of the prosecutor, that yesterday
evening a watchman in the service of Mr. Poole called his
attention to the prisoner, and said he was leaving the fac-
tory with some lead in his possession. He stopped the pri-
soner, and asked him what he had got about him. The
prisoner immediately took some lead out of his trousers
pocket and threw it upon the ground. lie gave the prisoner
into custody.

William Ray, a police-constable, 151 K, said that he saw
the prisoner running, and the boy in pursuit. Ho also saw
the prisoner stopped. He took him back to the factory,
and there the boy picked up a piece of lead, and said the
prisoner had thrown it down. The prisoner denied it, and
said he was innocent.

The ant witness Was recalled, and said the lead W"

SPAIN.

The Madrid Gazette of the 12th contains, as has
been stated by telegraph, th© documents by which
the Infante Don Sebastien, brother of Don Carlos,
acknowledges Queen Isabella as the rightful sove-
reign of Spain. These documents are-1. A minnte
dated Naples the 4th, signed by the Prince, the
Spanish ambassador in that city, and other persons,
setting forth that the latter, at the request of the
former, had waited on his Royal Highness,
and had received his solemn recognition of
the Queen, and had administered to him the
oaths of fidelity to her Majesty. 2. A letter
from the Prince to the Queen, saying " that hav-
ing fulfilled the prescription of the law by swear-
ing loyalty to the Queen, and obedience to the
Constitution, it is his first duty to throw himself
at her Royal feet, and offer his submission and his
sentiments of profound respect ; and that he prays
her Majesty, with her usual bounty, to allow him
to present his homage in person and to kiss her
Royal hand ;" and 3, a despatch from the Spanish
Ambassador giving details of the affair, and en-
closing the preceding documents. The Prince, Don
Sebastien Gabriel Maria de Bourbon y Braganza,
48 years of age, is married to a sister of the late,
aunt of the present King of Naples. The journals
announce that the Portuguese Minister at Madrid
had suddenly left for Lisbon, a circumstance which
had given rise to some speculation.

Parliamentary champion of the courtliest species of
Germanism! Have we not also, by way of addi-
tional consolation, the knowledge that Sir GEORGE
LEWIS will try his practised hand, as Secretary of
State, upon the Home Department—that Mr.
GLADSTONE will return, to the ineffable terror of
all practical City men, to the conduct of the Ex-
chequer—that Sir CHARLES WOOD 10 ye gods
and little fishes!] that the celebrated Sir CHARLES
WOOD will assume his place (as Lord STANLEY'S
successor) as her MAJESTY'S Indian Secretary ?

We hope our readers did not overlook the sage 1
advice of the venerable Judge COLERIDGE at the
Honiton meeting (reported in
.The Sun of
Wednesday) to form a Rifle Corps in that
place. The spirit of his remarks coincided so closely
with that of those which we have ourselves made
on the subject, that we cannot .I;ut hope his
A .
weighty opinion will add authority to our own
remarks. The object of the meeting was to
interest all classes, " the agrzczaturists and
i„
labourers," and not merely the young gentle-
men of the neigbourhood, in the , formation of

a rifle corps. This distinguished and cool-headed

civilian laid stress upon the fact that we are " an
unarmed people ;" that the use of arms has been
neglected by us ; indeed, as he suggested, dis-
couraged, in consequence of the existence of game
laws. On this last point he speaks doubtless what

he knows ; and sad, indeed, is it to think that a
useless mode of protecting gentlemen's amusements

- - -
should have been the cause of discouraging the

manly practice of shooting, and the acquisition
by the thousands of the people, :so invaluable
to an invaded country, of skill In marksman-

ship. We are, indeed, as he observed, " a singu-
larly unarmed population ;" in this respect we stand
below almost every Continental State, and below

TO TILE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Sin,—Under the above heading, in the Mechantes
Magazine of yesterday, I have read a letter signed
" Justice," and dated the 17th inst., addressed to
the editor of 27w Sun ;I did not see The Sun which
contained that letter or I would have instantly
answered it, by quoting an extract of a letter to
the editors of the Mechanics' Magazine, dated 29th
of December, 1855, and inserted in their number,
12th January, 1856, on the subject of Capt. Disney's
liquid-fire shell :

cg Ido not pretend to any claim on the liquid-fire con
coction, bisulphunt or carbon and phosphorus, which I
consider to be the most naufragious' fire. stuff ever 111'
vented by the ingenuity of man."
In my recent experiments at Chatham I only
used my own rifle-shells charged with the liquid'
fire which Dr. Scoffern gave to me about three
years ago, and Mr. Wentworth Scott filled a few of
my rifle-shells with his own liquid-fire, which I
fired from my heavy rifle in his presence in the
garden of the Rosherville Hotel about the same
period, and found his liquor to be very potent,
which was reported in some of the daily and weekly
papers of the time,-.4 am, Sir, your obedient ser‘
vant, JOHN NORTON.

OUDE.

Since the date of my last message the rebels,
under the Begum and Ram Singh, have re-crossed
the river Gunduck, and have marched westward
through the Nepaul Terrai. On the 16th of March
about 200 rebels, supposed to be an advanced party,
entered the Toolseepore territory. The main body,
with the chiefs, were said to be at Bootwul, about
25 miles east of the Toolseepore boundary. They
are believed to number about 5,000, including
women and children. Brigadier Kelly was to have
been at Lotun, 36 miles from Bootwul, on the 18th
instant.

The province of Oude continues tranquil; the
disarming of the country and the demolition of the
forts progress satisfactorily.
CENTRAL INDIA AND RAJPOOTANA.
Information has been received from Chundeyree
that the Rao Sahib, with 2,000 cavalry, arrived ill
the Chundeyree district on the 13th inst. Arrange•
ments had been made for pursuing him. Overtures
of surrender had been received both from the Rao
and Feroze Shah, who are both said to be anxious
to come in.

Tantia Topee, when last heard of, was threading
the jungles on the Chumbul, under the assumed
name of Rao Singh.
REWAH AND BUNDELCUND.
On the 4th of March Brigadier Fordyce (?)
attacked the rebels under Furozund Alec and Run*
must Singh ; 102 of them were killed, and the regi"
mental colours of the 30th Native Infantry, with 70
muskets and rifles, besides numerous matchlocks
and swords, were taken. On our side three Sikh
were killed, and one officer and 16 men wounded•
After this defeat Runmust Singh with the remainder
of his party crossed the Kijmoor range, and on the
19th of March were 30 miles west of Singrowlee, in
the Mirzapore district.

DESPATCH OF THE ELECTION WRITS.—About
seven o'clock on Saturday night, a special messenger ar-
rived at the General Post-office with the election writs,
which were immediately despatched to all parts of the king-
dom, so that they would be received in the course of yester-
day (Sunday). The principal part of the proclamations
will consequently be made this morning. As three clear
days must elapse before the nominations take place in cities
and boroughs, the bulk of them will be fixed for Friday.
The county elections will follow in the ensuing week, and
all the returns will be completed within a month.
London, England, 1859-04-25

CORN EXCHANGE.

Most of the country markets held on Saturday were but
moderately supplied with wheat, and all kinds moved off
steadily on higher terms. Barley was tolerably firm. In
the value of other produce very little change took place.
Throughout the Continent wheat has been held on
higher terms, and all spring corn has commanded full
prices. In the United States the dealings in wheat and
flour have been very moderate.
Coastwise, the receipts of English grain up to our market
last week were moderate. From abroad we received 13,610
qrs. of wheat, 13,970 barley, 65,376 oats, 365 beans, 65 tares,
3,800 linseed, 3,090 rapeseed, 2,600 maize, 110 sundry seeds,
4,318 sacks and 60 barrels of flour.
Fresh up to-day a very moderate supply of wheat came
to hand both from Essex and Kent. The warlike rumours
afloat, added to the small show of samples, induced the fac-
tors to hold all kinds at an advance in the quotations of
from 3s. to 4s. per quarter. Millers, however, showed very
little disposition to operate ; yet, in most instances, 2s. to
3s. per quarter more money was realised by the holders.
The amount of business doing in foreign wheat, the
show of which was seasonably good, was by no means ex-
tensive. However, fine samples may be considered fully
2s. per quarter higher than on this day sen'aight. Inferior
parcels were held for a similar advance.
We had rather more inquiry for barley at fully last week's
currency.
The malt trade ruled heavy, but no decline took place in
prices.
Good sound oats were firm, and quite as dear as last week.
Inferior samples were dull. •

Beans were held at is advance, but the demand was not
to say active.
In the value of peas no change took place.
The flour trade was firm, and prices had an upward
tendency. Town-made flour advanced to 43s per 2801bs.

NEIVGATE AND LEADENHALL.

The supplies of meat are seasonably good. Prime beef,

BOROUGH HOP.

Since our last report new hops have found buyers to a
moderate extent, at full prices. A fair business is doing
in yearlings, but all other hops are a dull inquiry.

TIIE BALLOT SOCIETY.

The weekly meeting of the Executive Committee
was held on Tuesday last at the offices, 6, Guild-
hall-chambers; Thomas Prout, Esq., the treasurer,
in the chair. Mr. Whitehurst, Mr. Richardson,
Mr. M. C. Marsden, Mr. Samuel Harrison, Mr. T.
F. Le Maitre, Mr. Elt, Mr. Francis Clowes, Mr.
Hyde Clarke, Mr. W. Campbell, Mr. Sleigh, Mr.
Gilbert Ponuey, Mr. Sydenham Nodes, Mr. James
Campbell, Mr. G. Staveley, and Mr. W. E. Dawes,
were present. Subscriptions were announced of
£lO from James Simpson, Esq., of Accrington ;
£5 from Mr. W. M. Thackeray ; L 5 from Mr.
George Thomas, of Bristol ; £2 from Mr. lames
Peard Ley; £1 from Mr. Bushly (Grantham) ;
and several smaller sums. Reports from the
various constituencies respecting the posi-
tion of the ballot at the coming elections
and the views of candidates thereon were
laid before the meeting and considered. It was
reported that 25,000 copies of the address to
the electors of the United Kingdom -agreed to by
the committee, had been distributed through the
country.

Mr. WHITEHURST then called the attention of
the committee to an advertisement by the Central
Committee of the four Liberal candidates for the
City, containing a letter from the society's chair-
man, Mr. Berkeley, M.P., to the chairman of the
Central Committee, the object of which letter was to
support Lord J. Russell, in spite of his continued
opposition to the Ballot. Great surprise was ex.
pressed by the committee at this letter, as an
address to the electors of the City of London,
advocating the opposite policy, was agreed to oil
the sth April, and a copy transmitted to Mr.
Berkeley, who expressed no dissent therefrom.
After a long and animated discussion, the fol-
lowing resolution was proposed by Mr. GILBERT
PONNEY, seconded by Mr. M. E. MARSDEN, and
unanimously agreed to:—

" That, disclaiming any intention of dictating to
Mr. Berkeley, or any other member of the society,
as to his exercise of the electoral franchise, this
committee declare that the letter of Mr. Berkeley
to Mr. Ingram Travers, the chairman of the central
committee of the four Liberal candidates for the
city, recommending the friends of the ballot to vote
for Lord John Russell, was not written with their
knowledge or concurrence."
