them to have an almost distinct view of the whole
scene ! For ten minutes (according to the statement
of one of them on his afterwards entering the house)
had these guardians of the night stood before the
hou-e, witnessing what they thought was a
simple act of chastisement on the part of
a man towards his wife (or son, as another
said), at such an hour in the morning, and in one
of the most respectable houses in Great Hampton-
street ! While the conflict was going on, too, Miss
Marston implored them, for heaven's sake, to come to
the assistance of her father, and told them that if they
simply broke one of the panes of the front window
they would obtain access, as the shutters were not
fastened. Although both might be presumed to be
experienced officers, from the circumstance of one
heiner a sub-inspector and the other a sergeant, yet
they do not appear to have had the least tact or presence
of mind, even when a glimmering of the real state of
things came across them, and no proper precautions
were taken to prevent the escape of the burglars,
which they consequently effected at their leisure.
Ultimately the door was opened from the inside, and
the officers found Mr. Marston in an insensible state,
covered from head to foot with blood, which flowed
chiefly from wounds about his head. He was con-
veyed up to bed, and medical aid being sought, Dr.
Bell Fletcher and others were soon in attendance. It
was found that the wounds he had received were of a
very serious character, and such as might render his
recovery a matter of the greatest uncertainty. In-
spector Glossop, examined the premises in the course
of the morning, and took possession of a hat which
had been dropped by one of the burglars, as
well as the poker, which was covered with blood
and much bent. No property of any kind was missed
from the premises. Having a suspicion of the right
parties, he stationed sub-inspector Tandy and three
or four of the detective force, during the day, in s
lodging-house in Carey's-court, Moor-street, and be-
fore night they had in custody five young fellows,
most of whom belong to a gang of London thieves
who have recently taken up their abode in Birming-
ham. Their names are—Christopher Heeley, Wil-
liam 'Wallace, George Green, Henry Jones, and
Henry Thompson and the hat found by Mr. Glossop.
will, we believe, be identified as the property of one of
them. Conceiving that the officers mentioned above
had been guilty of a gross neglect of duty, Cbief
Superintendent Stephens very properly summoned
them before the sub-committee of the watch commit-
tee on Tuesday last, when Miss Marston attended and
stated the facts of the case. A long and somewhat
angry discussion took place, but the result was that
the men were simply remanded by the Mayor. Oe
inquiring at Mr. Marston's house last night, we found
be was somewhat better, although there is no proba-
bility of his being able to leave his bed for several
days. The suspected parties will therefore be simply
brought up to-day for remand.—Birmingham Journal
of Saturday.

MANCHESTER, OCT. 12.—A somewhat improved de-
mand for flour has been experienced during the pas
t
week, and although in the early part rather lower rates
were in some instances accepted, factors have subse'
quently exhibited more firmness, and the depression hag
been fully recovered, with a moderate business for cow
sumption passing. Oatmeal, on the contrary, was i°
less request, owing to many buyers being supplied for
the moment, and prices consequently again receded a
little. Of oats and oatmeal from Ireland the import!
into Liverpool and Runcorn are to a fair extent, ha'
scanty of other produce thence; whilst from our own
coast very limited supplies continue to be received.
From abroad the arrivals of wheat and flour are large,
but of other articles trivial. At our market this morn'
ing a decidedly better feeling was apparent in the trade, •
and all descriptions of wheat, excepting only inferior
qualities of Irish new, firmly supported the quotations
of this day se'nnight. Flour likewise, although the sale
was by no means extensive, fully maintained its previous
value. In either old or new oats no material change
occurred, but new oatmeal declined 6d. per load.

GLASGOW CATTLE MARKET, OCT. 10.—Our cattle)
market this morning was but poorly supplied, and veil
few good beasts shown—almost all from Ireland. Those
of best quality brought last day's rates, but coarse and
inferior cheaper. Best ox beet' 463, second 44s to 450,
third 41s to 435, cows, bulls, and inferior 30s to 38s Per

some fine lots of black-face:] wethers. Prices somethill
similar to last day. Best aged wethers 51d, second 4P

DUBLIN, OCT. 11.—Our corn market to-day was vlO.ll

CORE, OCT. 11.—We have had very few arrivals e
foreign grain. With home grain we are rather liberalli
supplied, the receipts for the week being—Wheat, 2,128
brls, at 14s to 22s per brl; barley, 9,151 brls, at 8s S°
12s per do; oats, 15,385 brie, at 7s to 9s per o°,:
Wheat and oats, which in the early part of last wee'.
gave way in value, at its close in a great measure re'
vered the decline, and since then have undergone no al'
toration. Grinding barley, however, continues to, be
sold on easier terms, but malting fully maintains i?
value. In prepared and foreign wheat very little base
ness has been done, and both appear easier to purchase'
In barley we have not heard of any transactions of rue:
ment. Prepared oats are diffiault to place, and manifest"
a downward tendency. A parcel has been placed at the
low figure of 8s 3d per brl, the current value of the,
article being 8s 3d to 88 63. The flour trade continue'
in the same dull and inactive state as when we last wre,te:
Stocks and supplies are still light, but fully equal to ts'
demand, which is very moderate. Coarse flour is inOre
looked for. In Indian corn we have buts very modeler:
business passing, but the value of the article is flaw/
maintained, and exhibits rather an upward tendency'
The falling off in the supply of potatoes, and the aci;
VaLC 3 in their value, tend to enhance the price °`
maize. Indian meal meets a quiet, consumptive sale-
