Mr. Tyrwhitt said he must hear some evidence.

Mr. Leonard Appleton, cashier to the prosecutors,
said that on the 17th February he gave the prisoner
change for a cheque for the sum of 210 drawn
on the Wilts and Dorset Bank, Bath, and it
had subsequently been returned through Messrs.
Hill, bankers, Messrs. Herries, Farquhar, and Co.,
unpaid. He would not have parted with the 110
had he not believed that the prisoner had sufficient
funds at the bank to meet the cheque.
In answer to Mr. Tyrwhiti-, _

Witness said that Prisoner was introduce-1 by a
customer.

Mr. Froggatt said the prisoner having been only
apprehended that morning, he was unable to pro-
duce any further evidenc3 that day.
Mr. Tyrwhitt remanded the prisoner, and refused
to take bail.

PRICES BASED ON READY-MONEY
SYSTEM.

\HE ADVAN rAGEs of the READY-MONEY
I SYSTEM cannot be better expressed than in the following
extract from a leading article in the " Times:"—
`• Everybody knows the difference between a credit and a
ready-money business. It is this partly which affords one tailor
the excuse for charging £7 7s. for a coat while another will
charge £4 4s. • . It is true that every tradesman ought to
abate his charges to customers who pay him punctually. Still
we know how in this particular we all suffer for a few delin-
quents."

Thp Indian mails are rather late this week. The dates are
Li out Bombay to the 2nd inst., and from Calcutta to the

,f intelligence :

The troops have not yet begun to arrive from Abyssinia.
The Viceroy in Council has, in a general order, expressed
admiration at the whole conduct of the (Abyssinian)
expedition," and conveyed thanks to the different local
Governments fir the assistance they had rendered.
Sir Charles Jackson, president of the Bombay Bank

bill for the appointment of the Bombay Bank Commission
has been passed by the Viceregal Council, and has re-
ceived the assent of the Governor-General. The news
from Afghanistan records a defeat of Abdoolrahman
Khan by the Ameer of Maimanah, the latter acting at the
instigation of Sheer Ally Khan. Lieutenant-Colonel
Sir Charles Herbert, agent to the Governor-General
with the King of Oudh, has been appointed Political
Agent and Consul• General in Turkish Arabia (Bagdad)!
A Calcutta journal states that there is considerable com-
mercial uneasiness and difficulty there. There have been
severe thunderstorms with heavy rain, at different parts
of the Presidency (in particular Poona) during the week.

PHEASANTS, PARTRIDGES, and
POULTRY.—Landed Proprietor; Gentry, &c., of
the United Kingdom wishing to rear Gams for 18G8 and
to be successful, are respectfully asked to send six stamps
for Mr. CHAMBERLIN'S new BOOK, containing .500
certificates of the utility of his FOOD. J. 0. supplies the
Crowned Heads of England and France and the chief of
the aristocracy. By the use of his " Spanish Meal" any
quantity of birds can be raised.
The hundreds of thousands of heads of Game reared on
my system during the last ten years proves its utility ; the
loss from every cause has not averaged three to the hun-
dred. Gapes and Roup (the two most fatal diseases which
attack game) the birds have been and always are free
from. This is attributable to their robust constitution
and excellent condition. Pheasants fed on my food show
their beautiful plumage with hardness and closeness of
feather to the greatest advantage; they cannot bo sur-
passed.
The magnificent Foreign and English Pheasants at the
Zoological Society's Gardens, London, and his Imperial
Majesty's Pheasantry at Compiegne and St. Gormains, are
fed with my food.
Address, Mr. JAMES CHAMBERLIN, Post-office-
street, Norwich, England.

1 AMBERT'S ASTHMATIC BALSAi\L—AN
ILA EFFECTUAL REIIEDY, without confining the
bowels or affecting the heal, truly efficacious and pleasant,
is admitted to be the best medicine for immediately re-
lieving coughs, cold?, confirmed cases of asthma, and inci-
pient consumption. It frequently cures persons whom the
faculty pronounce incurable, and admirably allays the
ticking which pzovokes frequent coughing. In approach-
ing consumption its effects are truly beneficial. Persons
deprived of sleep, or even lying down for fear of suffoca-
tion, may depend on relief in a few minutes after taking it.
Prepared only and sold by W. LAMBERT, Chemist, 8,

GRAND REVIEW AT ALDERSHOT.

On Monday his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge,
Field-Marshal Commanding-in-Chief, paid a visit to,
Aldershot, and reviewed the whole of the troops at present
m the station. The Commander-in-Chief was accompanied
)3, his Royal Highness the Prince Louis of Hesse and his
Serene Highness Prince Teck, and attended by Colonel
Sir E. R. Wetherall, C. 8., K. 5.1., deputy quartermaster-
feneral, and Col. A. J. Herbert, C. 8., assistant adjutant-
;eneral. The royal party travelled from town, arriving
st Farnborough at 9.15. Mounting their chargers,
:scorted by a few dragoons, they rode slowly to the review-
;round in rear of the clubhouse. The troops, which were
'ormed up as usual, infantry in front, and artillery and
avalry in rear, received the royal visitors with the cus-
tomary salute ; and after a very brief inspection the move-
ments of the day commenced. A series of well-executed
manoeuvres, tending to the discomfiture of an enemy
supposed to be marching on the camp from the south-
west, were then gone through, lasting something over ar
hour, at the termination of which the troops, having ar-
rived on comparatively favourable ground, marched past
in review order, infantry in front, artillery and cavalry
next in order. As the regiments defiled past the saluting
base, they marched off to their respective quarters, which
were reached about one o'clock. The troops on the ground
were three batteries of Royal Horse Artillery, three
batteries of Royal Artillery, the let, 4th, and sth Dragoon
Guards, the 10th Hussars, a troop of Engineers, and 2nd
battalions of the sth, 6th, and Bth Regiments ; lat.bat-
talons 20th, the 34th, 40th, 51st, 54th, 57th, 80th, 97th,
and 98th Regiments, in all some 8,000 men. The duke and
his distinguished visitors, after a visit to the camp and
barracks, left Farnborough for town by the 14.34 train.

CHRONICL and CHARACTERS.. By the

are happy to observe that the work before us is no hasty or
passing contribution to our poetical literature. The plan of it
was conceived many years ago, and its execution has been
elaborated. the poet t-,:: us, during seven years of careful think-
ing. It appeals only to'ferious, earnest, and discriminating cri-
ticism, and is worthy dl that patient perusal which its author
claims as a preliminary to any final judgment. There is no
,masked atheism here,;lno brutal passion veiled under the thin
disguise of elaborate icholarship, no curious raking amid the
'dead and foetid embers of forgotten lusts. In all these respects
Chronicles and Characters' set a noble example to our younger
generation of poets. The author has set himself seriously to
improve and cultivate is rare gifts by conscientious study and
deliberate carefulnes§, and he has presented the fruit of them to
tbo world in a series of*lm, connected pictures, so arranged as
tqillustrate one of the; noblest conceptions which could possibly

SALE OF TEE DUKE OF BEAUFORT'S STUD AT

TATTEMALL'S.

TLe brood mares, yearlings, and foals of the Duko of
Beaufort were sold at Messrs. Tattersall's yesterday, under
Lord Exetipr's conditions as to engagements. Of the brood
mares, which were, generally speaking, very moderate,
!Iva were sold at low pi ices. The yearlings were a colt
by Prime Minister, out of Winifred, taken by Mr. Man-
nington for 200 guineas, and a colt by the same sire, out
,tf Lurley (Mr. Pitt's dam), with a nasty splint on the near
fore leg, but promising to be a galloper ; he was bought by
J. Day, jun., for 143 guineas. The Duke of Hamilton got
1 nice colt (brother to Herall and Duke of Beaufort) by
PrumpAer, out of Palm (Vauban's dam), but gave enough
'or him. John Day bought the filly by Prime Minister,
,ut of Figtree, for 100 guineas; and Mr. H. Chaplin was
fortunate in securing a very neat and racing-like filly by
Trumpeter, out of The Roe.
The list of purchasers, with the prices is appended : -

PRIVATE BUSINESS.

The Thames Embankment (Chelsea) Bill ; the South-
Eastern, London, Brighton, and South Coast Railway
Company's Bill were real a third time and passed.
LONDON BRIGII I'ON, AND souirtr. COAST
RAILWAY BILL.

With regard to this bill the Marquis of CLANRICARDE
moved that the 26th clause of it be struck out. lie urged
that it was highly desirable that such a course should b
pursued as it would be ntost advantageous to the public.
as it (the dame) was designed to benefit the co:npan
rather than the public.
(LEFT SPEAKING.)

HOUSE OF COMMONS—TiIIs EVENING.
The SPEAKER took the chair at 4 o'clock.
TUE STEAMER GARONNE.

Admiral ERSKINE asked the Vice-President of th.
Board of Trade (with reference to as inquiry lately help
at Penzance into the loss of the steamer Garonne)
whether the report of the inquiry published in tin
Western Times, wherein it was stat)d that Mr. O'Dowd,
Solicitor of the Board of Customs, said in his speech,
"The boats were got out, and he would be able t 4
show that the men who were saved brought
w:th them bags full of clothes" was true ; and whether
the fact so stated by Mr. O'Dowd had been proved by the
evidence to have occurred, whilst the passengers, includ-
ing several women and children, were left to perish; and
if he would lay copy of the evidence and report upon the
table of the house.

Mr. CAVE said Mr. O'Dawd was at present in Ireland,
but a telegram had been received from him that afternoon
to the effect that his statement was accurate. Then
seemed to have been very little effort to save the passen
gers, and altogether there appeared to b 3 a total want of
discipline amongst the crew ; and to such an extent did it
prevail as to amount to a total disregard of safety by tht
captain and chief officer, who went down with the ship.
If the hon. and gallant gentleman wished for the papers
alluded to, he should have no objection to their pro-
duction.

UNFOUNDED CHARGE OF ROBBERY.—William
Harris was charged with stealing a silver watch,
the property of Richard Blake, an errand boy.
The prosecutor on the previous evening was stand-
ing in a crowd in Warwick-street, Pimlico, listening
to a quack doctor, and the prisoner was standing
next to him. Missing his watch suddenly,
and the prisoner being the nearest person
to him, the prosecutor, upon a constable coming
up, gave him into custody.
Police-constable 277 B proved apprehending the
prisoner, who protested his innocence. Nothing
whatever was known of him.

An application was ,made by the police for s
remand, but was refused by Mr. Arnold, there
being, he said, not a tittle of evidence against the
prisoner, who merely happened to be the person
nearest to the prosecutor. Prisoner must be dis-
charged.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.

The supplies of fat stock in the market to-day was mo-
derate, and generally the tone was steady.
Of beasts there were 510, including 100 from abroad.
The demand was dull, but prices were supported.
Of sheep there were 6,450, of whom 330 wore from the
Continent. The trade was slow, but rates cannot be
quoted lower.
The veal trade was brisk, and prices higher for choice ;
-247 calves came to hand, of which 167 wore from abroad.

The demAnd:for pork was moderate, and prices dull, at
the quotations.
There were 55 pigs on sale, of which 5 were from the
Continent.

Quotations—Beef, 3s la to 5s ; mutton, 3s 4d to 53 6d ;
veal, 3s 4d to 6s; pork, 3s to 4s 4d per stone of 81b sinking
the offal.

POTATOES, etc.

Supplies of regents and flukes have further increased,
And the trade being less active prices have given way lOs
to 20s per ton on all but the very primest aamplos. The
average qualities of rocks and French are also lower, but
Dutch, which were previously relatively cheap, cannot be
quoted at any reduction.

Green stuffs are in short supply, and, brocoli sprouts and
turnip tops being now over, the demand is thrown upon
other descriptions, which are consequently enhanced in
value. Greens, 2s 4d to 2s 6d per dozen bunches ;
summer cabbage, Gd to is ; brocoli, English, is Gd to 2s 6d ;
Jersey, is to 2s ; French, 2s to 3s ; turnips, 1 to 2s ; car-
rots, 2s to 4s per dozen bunches ; loose carrots, £2 to £4
per ton.
HAY AND STRAW.

There was a good supply at market, and rather more
demand, without material changes. Meadow hay, bos to
; clover, first cut, 80s to 100 s ; second, 60s to 84s ;
straw, 30s to 34s per load.

INDUSTRIAL SCHOOLS (IRELAND) BILL.

The house then went into committee on this bill, when
two additional clauses were added, and the bill was re-
ported with amendments.

THE ELECTRIC TELEGRAPHS.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER asked for
leave to introduce a bill to enable the Postmaster-Geueral
to acquire,work, and maintain electric telegraphs. The ad-
dition of the facilities of the electric telegraphcommunic,a-
don to the Post-office could not but be productive of good
results. England was very far behind in the matter o
electric telegraphs; and in order to show this, the right
hon. gentleman quoted from a document, showing that
while in Belgium and Switzerland the telegrams in com-
parison with letters were very small in England, and
there was only 1 telegram for 197 letters. This state
of things was owing no doubt to the high rate of charges
for telegraphic messages. The present system of tele-
graphy did not give satisfaction to the commercial classes
and there were various other grounds upon which he was
induced to ask for the introduction of the bill. The bill
he proposed to introduce would give the postmaster
power to purchase the existing lines of telegraph of pri-
vate companies and railways, and to work thorn in an
improved manner, and at certain fixed rates. The hon.
gentleman was abrutly compelled at a quarter to six to ask
leave to introduce the bill.
Leave was given and the house adjourned.

[ADVERTISEMENT.] - Holloway's Ointment and Pills.—.
Tumours,Cancers, and Bad Breas's.—lf any departure
niheath requires earlier attention than another to pre-
vent disastrous consequences, it is the class of diseases now
under review. To save hazard and future pain, the bud-
ding tumour must have early attention, or days of discom-
fort and nights of disquietude will be the sufferer's por-
tion. Whenever the ailment first appears, after fomenting
the spot with warm water, Holloway's Ointment must be
energetically rubbed un the part till a considerable quan-
tity is absorbed. The pills, too, must be commenced with
early. If these remedies be diligently persevered in, the
simple tumour or the fell cancer is arrested. In cases of
bad breasts, with or without milk fever, relief is almost
laStUtsasoul.

THE ABYSSINIAN EXPEDITION.

Sir .4. -NORTHCOTE said he was not yet enabled
to state what would be the exact cost of the expedi-
tion. He did not think he should be able to give
any direct or positive information on the subject until
after the holidays. It might bo interesting to know that
he had received a telegram from Sir B. Napier, who had
now arrived to within 25 miles of King Theodore's
camp, so that as at that time he had started no doubt
he should be able to announce the reselt of Gen. Napier's
close proximity to the King. He hoped not only to be
able in about three weeks to state the total cost of the ex-
pedition, but that the expedition was returning home-
wards. (Hear, hear.)
