in the N. and E. Temperatures have not altered much, but a slight
decrease has occurred in the N. and E. Winds continue moderate,

The Independence Beige denies that the reception of the
King of Prussia at Hanover was of the enthusiastic
character described in the telegrams. On the contrary,
the people absented themselves, and King William was
received almost exclusively by the troops (of whom there
were 10,C00), by an army of police, and by the Government
officials. He has now left the somewhat dreary old
Guelphic capital.
The Paris correspondent of the Times, referring to the
rumoured appointment of M. do Lagueronnibre to the post
of Minister Plenipotentiary at Brussels, observes that the
Moniteur makes no sign on the subject. This silence, M.
de Lagueronniere's friends say, is owing to his hesitation
about accepting the appointment, which they attribute,
rightly or wrongly, to the Government preferring his
absence to his presence, at least for some time.

ROYAL CALEDONIAN ASYLUM.

The fifty-third anniversary festival of the friends of this
institution, which bas • for its special object the clothing,
educating, and supporting of the children of Scotch soldiers
and sailors who have died or been disabled in their coun-
try's service, also of the children of indigent and deserving
Scotchmen resident in London, was held" at the new grand
hall, Freemasons' Tavern, G reat Queen-street, on Wednes-
day night. The society, which has for its patrons her Majeaty
the Queen and H.li. H. the Prince of Wales, and for its presi-
dent his Grace the Duke of Buccleuch and Queensberry,
K.G., was honoured at this gathering by the presence of
H.R.H. the Prince Christian of Schleswig-Holstein, K.G.
The chair was taken by his Grace the Duke of Richmond
and Lennox, K.G. His Royal Highness Prince Christian
responded to the toast of " The Visitors," and on rising
was received with loud cheers. He said that in the name
of the visitors he begged to tender the company his best
thanks for the compliment which they had been pleased to
pay them. He desired to be regarded not merely as their
guest, but as a sincere well-wisher of their noble insti-
tution. He begged to express his gratitude to the
chairman for the kind terms in which he had referred
to the Princess Christian and himself. (Cheers.) He
recalled.at that moment with feelings of pleasure the sport
in which he had engaged in company with his Grace the
Duke of Richmond. He could truly say that it was plea-
sant to be associated with his Grace in works of charity
for the benefit of Scotland. (Cheers.) It was his heart-
felt desire as a member of the Caledonian Society, that
meetings like this might have the effect of stimulating
their interest in the excellent object which they had
so much at heart. (Cheers.) The concluding toasts,
which were drunk with Highland honours, were the
healths of the president of the institution, his Grace
the Duke of Buccleuch, and the chairman of the day,
his Grace the Duke of Richmond. Mr. Daniel, the
secretary, read the list of subscriptions, which amounted
to about £l,lOO.

THAMES.

MunDEnous ASSAULT ON THE POLICE.—James
Hynes alias Isles, a dock labourer, and Mary
Crane, a woman of loose character, were brought
before Mr. Paget charged with being concerned in
violently assaulting Thomas Payne and John
Martin, police-constables, 15 and 29 H.
The male prisoner was half naked. The shreds
of his upper garments were laid across the top of
the dock, and he was in a deplorable condition
from drink and the terrific encounter in which he
had been engaged. Yesterday afternoon the male
prisoner was drunk and making a disturbance at
the Crown public-house, in Upper Smithfield, op-
posite the London Dock. He was removed from
the public-house, and was guilty of very bad con-
dust and used obscene language outside. Payne told
him to go home. Prisoner refused, and made use of
filthy and violent threats, and among others, that
he would kick his - guts out. Payne laid hold
of him by the collar, and Hynes tripped him up.
Both fell, the policeman undermost. As Hynes
rose he kicked the constable once on the thigh and
twice in the groin. Payne said "If you kick me
again I will use my staff on your head." Hynes then
struck Payne on the mouth, threw him, and bit
his thumb. Payne drew his staff. Before he
could use it the prisoner seized him by the belt, and
struck him three times while he was on the ground.
The female prisoner then seized him:by the neck,
d knocked his helmetsor d
e off l while he was struggling
with p
Y mob collected, and a
scene of riot and violence took place. The mob,
a ayne.A dr
principally consisting of roughs, prostitutes, and
thieves, assembled shouted and interfered with the
police. . _

Martin, 29 H, came to the assistance of Payne,
and Hynes said he would not go for forty police-
men, and made use of horrible maledictions. He
kicked and struck Martin several times. A fearful
scene ensued before the prisoners were secured.

Hynes said he was drunk last night. He was
fearfully bcatcn by the police, who knocked all his
things off. His arms were bruised and his head cut
open. _ _

Mr. Paget examined the man's bare arms. They
were very slightly bruised. Ills bead was slightly
cut.

Mr. Paget sentenced Hynes to four mouths' im-
prisonment and hard labour, and the woman Crane
to one month's imprisonment without hard labour.

THE CARRIERS ACT.

Mr. CARTER asked the Vice-President of the Board of
Trade whether her Majesty's Government, in withdraw-
ing from the Railways Regulation Bill the clauses they
had inserted in it for amending, in certain respects, the
General Carriers Act, are satisfied that the provisions of
that Act, passed forty years since, are suitable to the re-
quirements of the present day; or whether the Govern-
ment are still of opinion that the Carriers Act requires
amendment, and ought to be revised by Parliament.
Mr. CAVE said that after the greatest consideration the
Board of Trade were of opinion that the Carriers Act now
in force was not suited for the present time. An inquiry
would be made next session, after which he hoped a now
act would be introduced to Parliament.
POSTAL CONTRACTS.

Mr. BAXTER asked the Secretary to the Treasury
what was the present position of the negotiations
between Her Majesty's Government and that of the
United States on the subject of a new Postal Convention ;
And whether the Government, in making now contracts for
the conveyance of the mails, intend to place all the com-
panies on the same footingas to terms of payment and con-
ditions of service, carrying out the declaration of Mr. Chan-
cellor of thelExchequer on the 20th of March, " that the
present arrangement was faulty, because it was wrong that
the companies carrying mails to America should be under
different terms with the Government.' "
Mr. BOOTH said the matter was still under considera-
tion, therefore he could not further refer to it. With
respect to the latter part of the question, ho had to say
it was their intention to carry out the recommendation of
his right hon. friend.
THE NEW LAW COURTS.

Mr. M. CHAMBERS asked the First Commissioner of
Works if the intention of the Government to appoint Mr.
Street (whose design was approved by the judges for
elevation only) sole architect of the New Law Courts was
communicated to the Royal Commission, and whether the
Royal Commission had expressed any opinion on the ap-
pointment.
Lord J. MANNERS said the decision had been com-
municated to the Royal Commission, but there not having
been a meeting of the Royal Commissioners no opinion on
the matter had been expressed.
SUPPLY—IRISH REVENUE.

On the motion for going into committee of supply,
Gen. DUNNE called the attention of the house to the
Irish revenue returns with a view of showing their in•
correctness.

THE REGISTRATION BILL.

The Registration Bill is in the hands of a select com-
mittee compoted of nearly an equal number of Conserva-
tives and Liberals. The difficulty of accelerating the
registration is aggravated by the postponement of the
Registration Bill. The original scheme was proposed
probably in April or Mar, and if the bill had been
passed before the 10th of June a most material
sbric.igment of time might have been effected. On or
before June 10 in each year the clerk of the peace in every
county issues his precepts, with forms of notices, to the
3verseers. These have already been issued, and cannot
rell be recalled. All, therefore, which the select
committee can do in accelerating the election is
deal with the procedure at the secondary
stage, when it passes out of the hands of the
Overseers. Mr. Hardy proposes that the remission should
:ominence on the 14th of September. It might surely,
however, be begun a week sooner, and be concluded by the
Ist of October. Then comes the printing the lists for the
returning officers. That has been hitherto a tedious
process, through certain difficulties with respect to the
alphabetical arrangement of names, which the bill very
properly proposes to mitigate. It seems pretty well agreed
now that three weeks are enough for the printing. That
brings us to October 21, when, as it is very confidently
submitted, the lists might be ready for actual use by the
returning officers. The new bill postpones the date to the
lst of November. Thus far we have dealt with the process of
registration only. But with respect to the election also, a
considerable economy of time may be effected without in-
convenience. There seems no sufficient reason why the
writs should not be issued some time before the register is
completed, and there -might be a special statutory provi-
sion that the election shall take place according to the new
register, and on the day when it comes into operation.
By this expedient some days may be saved. Again, it is
c'ear that the interval between the commencement of the
election and the actual meeting of Parliament need only he
the period required for concluding the elections and allow-
ing members to reach London.

THAMES.

A RUFFIAN.—ATLEMPTED MURDER OP A POLICE-
MAN.—AIfred Inglish, a stout,lred-faced man, about
30 years of age, was brought upon remand before
Mr. Paget, charged with violently assaulting a
woman named Ann Rawlins, and with attempting
to stab a police-constable.
On Friday night last the prisoner, who was in-
toxicated, quarrelled with the woman Rawlins in a
public .house and struck her on the mouth with his fist
and cut her lips. He was given into the custody of
a police-constable, named Robert Davis, No. 193
K, at midnight, and on the way to the sta-
tion he made a violent resistance, kicked
the police-constable, and bit him. He was
secured by the aid of several other persons,
and removed to the station-house in King-
David-lane, where he was asked by Police-sergeant
Gamble, acting inspector on duty, if he had a knife,
the sergeant believing it was not safe he should be
locked up with one in his possession. The prisoner
with some reluctance took a knife from his pocket,
opened it, made use of a horrible exclamation, and
said he would rip Davis up with it, at the same time
running towards the constable and making an at-
tempt to stab him. He would no doubt have com-
mitted a murder if Gamble had not struck him and
made him drop the knife, which was within an inch
of the constable's person. The prisoner was then
locked up.
Mr. Paget said he should send the prisoner for
trial for attempting to murder the police-con-
stable.
The Prisoner —I hope you will not send me for
trial. I Was quite drunk at the time, and don't
know anything of the affair.
Mr. Paget—You have committed a very serious
offence, and drunkenness is no excuse but rather an
aggravation of the offence. I should recommend
in this case that counsel be employed at the Ses-
sions. If crimes of this nature are not prosecuted
with success no constable and no one else will be
safe from the attacks of drunken ruffians armed
with knives.
Inspector Allison, of the K division, said the re-
commendation of the magistrate should be at once
conveyed to the Commissioner of Police.

MARKETS—(This Day.)

CORN.

There were fair arrivals of foreign grain at this morn-
ing's market, and liberal supplies of foreign oats. The
general character of the trade is unchanged, the tone being
quiet, but firm, with a tendency to improvement.
The country markets are steadily creeping up.
From abroad quotations come firm.
Arrivals off the coast, though good, do not materially
accumulate, but went off steadily at full prices.
On the stands this morning English wheat sold rather
slowly, but at the full terms of Monday last.
Foreign wheat was firmly held, the purchases could not
be made under the terms of last market, but business
was restricted.

Off the coast tho number of cargoes by fresh arrivals
reported in this morning's lists has been increased to 31
of what on sale,- all of which are tory firmly held.
New Barley is all cleared off coast. On stand, supply
is moderate, and the tone firmer.
Beans and peas are unchanged.
Oats in liberal supply, aad selling steadily at moderate
rates.
