COMMITTAL OF A POLICE CONSTABLE AS A DESERTER.

—At Greenwich Police-court, yesterday, Richard
Walker, 29 years of age, a police-constable in the It
division of metropolitan police, was charged with being
a deserter from the sth battalion of Royal Artillery.
The prisoner had deserted from Woolwich about twelve
months since, and during the time he bad been in the
police force his duties had brought him into close proxi-
mity to the barracks from which his desertion bad taken
place. No suspicion, however, had attached to him,
owing to his always appearing in police uniform ; but
some one gave information to the Commissioners of
Police, who caused the prisoner to betaken into custody.
He admitted the charge, and was ordered to be conveyed
to head-quarters at Woolwich.

MOORS.—The

shootings in the High
lands are in brisk demand this season. Fully an average

o r
number have been let, and there is every prospect that
all the moors to let will find tenants against the advent
of the 12th of August. Many noblemen and gentlemen
have already arrived at their shooting quarters, espo•
cially where rod fishing is attached. We have little to add
to our last report on the state of the moors. They will be
found, we believe, to contain a fair stock of grouse on the
low grounds, but a deficiency on the high shootings
generally, caused by the want of an adequate number
of old birds from last year. Some of the best moors have
not yet, however, been examined by dogs, the pro-
prietors wishing that the young birds should obtain the
justice of not being disturbed at this early period
of the season. To compensate for any disappoint
meat in the upland districts on account of the falling
off in the grouse, there were never more favourable ac-
counts from the deer forests. Stags are abundant, and
far heavier at this time of the year than they have almost.
