FORGED ANTIQUITIES.—The surreptitious trade
introduced by the man known as "Flint Jack," it appears,
is being carried on on the Yorkshire Welds by numerous
imitators. Last week Mr. Charles Hartley, of Mahon,
succeeded in tracing and exposing a wholesaVe vendor of
spurious arrow-heads of flint, who had various connexions
along the line of railway across the welds. The forged
flints aro sold to farm servants, and by them disposed of
to unwary collectors. News is also to hand that "Flint
Jack" himself (who has just been released after a year's
imprisonment in Bedford Gaol) is also at work at his old
trade of deception, and has hoed driving a lucrative trade
at Northampton—so much so that one of the local papers
finds it requisite to give a caution against the purchase of
of all "flint arrow and atone •elta."

The Price of Gold.

The quotation of gold at Paris is about at par, and
the short exchange ou London is 251. 170. per .CI sterling.
.in c.anparing these rates with the English Mint price of
.4:1 tie. 100. per ounce for standard gold, it 8ype....4 that
gold is at t+b)ut the same price in Paris and Loudon.

The ,;puree of exchange at New York on London for Gills
at tin days' sight is about 1101 per cent. At this rate there
is a trifling profit on the importation of gold from the
United states.

REMARK%

The atmospherical pressure has generally decreased : on the south
west coast of Ireland the fall of the mercury amounts to six-tenths of
an inch, whereas at Yarmouth a rise of two hundredths has taken
place. The Temperature has not much changed. A south-west gale
is blowing on the south-west coast of Ireland : at other stations the
wind is light and variable. Much fog with mist is reported. Rain
has fallen, and continues to fall in Irelawl. On the east coast the
weather is line.

A charge of manslaughter was ma le against a lad named
William Paternan, before the Bedford coroner, on the 25th
May last, when ho was committed for trial, the coroner
having no power to take bail. The evidence being of t'ie
slightest, he was acquitted ; but for two months h 3 has
been in prison, because he was unfortunate enough to
have a criminal charge laid against him.
We are actually threatened with a quiet Ireland. The
Ireland of "Peep o'Day Boys," of Whiteboyism, of
Ribandism, and Fenianism, is on dit, an Ireland of the
past. But more, the Ireland of atrocious outrages, abduc•
tions, assaults, and duels, is for the time non est. Instead
thereof, we have Irish judges congratulating Irish juries
on the absence of crime. But if Fenianism is dead
its spirit still walks the earth. The wife of
" Captain" Mackay has just given birth to a boy, which
survived only two days. Its burial, says a Dublin corra•
spondent, was made the occasion of a demonstration by the
Fenian sympathisers. The coffin containing the body of
the infant was placed on a bier drawn by two horses deco.
rated with white plumes and green boughs. Shortly before
eight o'clock p.m. a procession was formed, led by the bier,
and followed by a number of young men as chief mourners,
wearing crape tied with a rosette of green ribbon. After
them followed some hundreds of young men marching in
military order, four deep, each wearing a green leaf, or
carrying a green bough. Then followed a long line of cars,
and a numerous concourse of people closed the procession.
The proceedings were conducted in an orderly and peace-
ful manner.

From a communication addressed by a correspondent to
toe Standard, it would almost appear as if it were now
necessary to follow a telegram to its destination to inquire
if it has safely arrived. At eleven a.m. on Thursday,
July 16, a message for Littlehampton was handed to the
c7erk, at " Station 5, Lothbury." The sender drove
down the next day to the house to which he had
addressel it. It had not ai r:ved. The next
day brought no message, and he wrote to the
secretary. A week has elapsed, and no reply to the
letter ; ten days, and no telegram ! It would be interest-
ing to know to what mysterious limbo unanswered letters
and unused telegrams are relegated in this lotus-eating
department. Is a clerk kept on purpose to perform the
" happy despatch "on a heap of documents, and thus
lighten the labour of his fellows? Truly, the Go rernment
has been none too early in its interference.

ISSUE OF DEBENTURES.

The EAST LONDON RAILWAY COMPANY are
prepared to RECEIVE SUBSCRIPTIONS for DEBEN-
TURES to be issued as a mortgage on the undertaking,
under the power given to the Company by its Act of In-
corporation to borrow £466,606 against its Share Capital
of £1,400,000, the whole of which has been issued and
registered, and of which more than £1,000,000 has been
paid up.
The Debentures will be issued at par, for a term of two
years—and will bear interest from the date of issue at £6
per cent. per annum, payable by Coupon half yearly, at
the London and Westminster Bank—and will be trans-
ferable by indorsement without stamp.
In order to secure the punctual payment of the interest
during the currency of the Debentures, the Company will
set apart a sum equal to two years' interest, to be invested
in Consols in the names of Trustees.
__

Three miles of the line, from the New-cross Junction
with the Brighton Line to Wapping (where it is proposed
to open a first section), are rapidly approaching comple-
tion ; and with the aid of the loan capital proposed to be
raised the Directors expect to open the Railway to White-
chapel by the time the Debentures fall due.
Applications for the Debentures, in amounts of £5O, or
in multiples of that amount, upon the subjoined form, will
be received at the Company's Offices, 3, Great Winchester-
street-buildings, E. 0., where Prospectuses and Forms of

WOOLWICH DOCKYARD.

Mr. CHILDERS asked the Secretary of State for War
whether the Treasury had yet decided between the Admi-
ralty and the War-office as to the proposal to purchase
land and erect storehouses for the latter department at
Woolwich, while accommodation for that purpose could
be obtained at comparatively small cost in the naval pro-
perty at Deptford ?
Sir J. PAKINGTON said no such determination'had
yet been come to on the subject.
