SMITHFIELD.

Our market to-day has been seasonably well 911.13:
plied with Beasts as to number, but their general quallq
was inferior. The primest breeds were in moderate,
request, at full prices. Otherwise the Bed trade rut,°
exceedingly heavy, at barely late rates. Notwithsta3o.
ing that the supply of Sheep was considerably
than that exhibited on Friday last, the 1Y utton trade'
owing to the large receipts of countr).killed Meat 119
to Newgate and Leadenhail, ruled dull, but we have 0°
actual fall to notice in -value. Calves were slow in sigleif
at about stationary prices. Prime small Pigs moved off
steadily, at fully Monday's currencies; but large flog.
wale selling at low rates. Milch Cows ruled heBo
at from_l4/ to 181 5 each, including their small Calf.

BOW-STREET.-(THIS DAY.)
Arthur MiEnvoy, a veteran who fought under Wel-
lington in seven battles, and amongst others that of
Waterloo, was placed at the bar before Mr. Henry,
charged under the following circumstances:—
Police-constable, 192 A, depose.' that he was on duty
in Whitehall yesterday afternoon, about three o'clock,
when three ladies came to him lin a most excited state,
and, pointing to the prisoner, who was a little way off,
said that that man had assaulted them. Witness meat
to the prisoner, and found him going through all the
manoeuvres of soldiering. He had a large,crab stick,
which he was flourishing about his head, to show that
he was master of the sword exercise. Witness suc-
ceeded in getting him away into
.Parliament-street,
where ho, with his stick, charged a gentleman
as if in the act of bayoneting him ; and then, rushing
from the custody of witness to a female who was passing,
he greatly alarmed her by pointing his stick at her as if
in the act of firing. He was ultimately taken to the
station. The prisoner in defence stated that he bad re-
ceived_ his quarterly pension yesterday, and unfortu-
liatalY he met some friends whom he treated to some
drink, which soon took effect upon him, owing to a
bullet wound in the head which he received at Waterloo.
Mr. HENRY could not pass unnoticed the assault com-
spitted, but under the circumstances he would mitigate
the fine to 10s., which was immediately paid.
MARLBRO'-STREET.-(THIS DAY.)
IMPUDENT ROBBERY.—John Walker was brought be-
fore Mr. Hardwick charged with stealing a looking-
glass value 21., the property of Mrs. Cook, looking-glass
manufacturer, 54, Upper Marylebone- street.
The prosecutrix stated that about eight o'clock last
night she was upstairs, in her room over the shop, when
she heard the shop-bell ring, and on going down to an-
iuer it, she found the prisoner and a neighbeur of hers
the shop. On inquiring the reason of their calling,
she was informed by her neighbour, that he had caught
the prisoner leaving her shop with a large looking-
glass under his arm, and as he suspected the prisoner had
had stolen if, he detained him until witness had
Seen him. Witness looked over her stock, and
missed the glass produced. On examining the shop-
door she found that a hole had been cut in a square of
glass just over the fastening. She then sent for a con-
!node and gave him in charge.
Mr. Burton said he saw the prisoner and two other
Men lurking about Mrs. Cook's shop. All at once the
prisoner left his companions, and went into her shop,
where he remained about thtee minutes, when he cause
out with a looking-glass under his arm. Witness, sus-
pecting the prisoner had stolen it, ran after him and
brought him back to Mrs. Cook's, who sent for a con-
stable and gave him in charge.
glass
The prisoner, in defence, said a man gave him the
to take to Cavendish-square, and on his
way there he was collared by the last witness, who taxed
him with stealing the glass.—Committed for trial.

Thi:re are lbw subjects to our attention can
b:, usefully drawn than to the example of thute
paha men who have calved ,7,ut, their own fortunes,
and have forced their way onward by the impulse of
their own ardent aspiration. England is fertile in
such examples ; and the profession of the law has fur-
nished them beyond any other, a fact to which the
Peerage list bars ample testimony.
Eloquence has been usually regarded as a quality
which is sure to win its way from the bar to the
senate; but in the present day mere eloquence is by
no means all that is wanting ; nevertheless, what
Cicero ha said of it will always hold good, pracipue
semper jloruit sempirque dominata est, and there is
no likelihood that its influence will ever fail. But
the value of this acquirement is growing every day
less and less. The schoolmaster is going the round
of Europe, and one visible consequence of his tour is
an increasing demand fur integrity and plain speak-
ing. No stronger evidence can be adduced in proof
of this than the gradual progress of Lord Truro to
the height of professional eminence.
The ordinary business of the bar affords no very
extensive scope for the display of oratory. A case
of crint. con., or an action for the breach of a promise of
marriage, may give room for a favourable exhibition
of it, but such cases are not within the every-day em-
ployment of an advocate. The attributes most
wanted, and which Lord Truro eminently possessed,
was the untiriug perseverance with which he mas-
tered the details of his client's case, the clearness with
which he placed it before the jury, and the care with
which he brought all its leading points under their
consideration. The case of " Small v. Atwood" was
a memorable instance of this. It was a labour to
which few other minds than his own would have
been equal.
No attorney thought his ease safe that had omitted
to retain Sir Thomas Wilde as his counsel. He came
into court prepared at all points; his adversary never
took him by surprise, for, knowing well where the
weak points of his own case lay, he gathered up his
strength to apply it where it was most wanted, and
his success rewarded his caution. His independence
was based on the consciousness of his own strength—
his moral courage was put to the test very early in
his career.
Judge Best, afterwards Lori Wynford, having
laid down a principle fatal to his client's case, Ser-
geant Wilde tendered a bill of exceptions ; hat it
was well founded may be inferred from its never
coming on for argument. The judicial displeasure
incurred by such a step would have operated as a bar
to the future success of a less intrepid advocate, but in
this case it had a contrary effect; it secured him
against any future attempt to put him down by autho-
rity, as in such a contest no judge would willingly
expose himself to the chance of being beaten. But in
no instance was he ever wanting in his respect for
the Bench; he felt, however, that his first duty was
to his client, and he never sacrificed the one to obtain
favour from the other.

C AT
The diveOLYMPI
rtissement from T
the HE
ballet RE.of the Peri,
which is known as the Sultan's Dream, was produced
here last evening with great and deserved success.
The principal characters were performed by Ma-
dame Louise and Mdlle. Adele, who excited quite a
fsrore by their elegant and effective style of dancing.
In the course of the divertissement a new and very
effective pas was introduced, it is called Le Pas des
Quatre Nations, and is danced by the pupils of Ma-
dame Louise. In this pas Miss L. Coleman more
particularly distinguished herself by the very graceful
manner in which she danced and acted La Francaise
she seems to have been thoroughly imbued with the
spirit ofla Belle France. The ballet was completely
successful, and the house was crowded in every part.

The same principle governed his conduct when, at
a more advanced period of his professional career, he
passed through the offices of Solicitor and Attorney-
General. In no instance was he ever known to
disavow the principles of constitutional liberty. In
no debate in the House of Commons was he ever
found arguing on the side of arbitrary power, or
giving a hasty utterance to ill-considered opinions.
He never threw his arguments into the scale without
weighing them. His party knew the value of his
support, and he never withheld it.
Lord Truro was distinguished in early life for the
clearness and quickneskor his apprehension, two ines-
timable requisites for a lawyer. He is gifted, more-
over, with an iron constitution, which no mental
exertion can weary. In this respect he resembles
Lord Brougham, whose herculean vigour of intellect
not only fits him for the endurance of labour, but
makes even its intensity an enjoyment. There are
few men with minds so constructed. If Lord Truro
has not that gigantic span of intellect which dis-
tinguishes the ex-Chancellor, his endowments are not
of less practical value. There is no topic of legal
discussion with which he is not more or less familiar.
His store of legal information is not only ample for
his purpose, but is always at hand. His memory
affords him a ready reference to the reports which
encompassed the four sides of his library. In the
arduous pursuits of the profession this accompaniment
is indispensable. Lord Coke was proverbially learned
in the law ; he was the oracle of the age in which
he lived, and posterity still do him homage. But his
commentary upon Lyttleton is lost in the voluminous
mass of laws which load the shelves of the student in
the present day. The progress of statute legislation
has swept both the one and the other out of memory.
The folios of that day, with their pages doubled down
and dogs-eared, are now never disturbed but to wipe
the dust from them. As reason advances mankind
become impatient of jargon and mystery. It is in
human nature that it should be so. As time wears on
the demand for common sense increases, and if the
supply is not equal to the demand things go wrong ;
and law reform becomes the most urgent of outcries.
This outcry has been raised, and with a voice, too,
that has made itself heard ; R result for which we
have reason to be thankful. To Lord Brougham
belongs the praise of having led the way, and Lord
Truro, we feel assured, will not be slow to follow it.
As regards the Chancellorship it would appear that
a new division of labour is contemplated, having for
its object the more prompt administration of justice.
That the forensic duties of the Chancellor are too
much open to interruption from political require-
ment has been a frequent subject of complaint by
Chancery suitors. There is no one more competent
than Lord Truro to suggest a remedy for this evil,
or that would more promptly give effect to it.

peared a month ago.—En. Sun.l

INTRAMURAL INTERMENTS AND MR.
WALKER.
W e have bad occasion to mention that a committee
as been formed in London to get up a national testi-
!tonial
favour of Mr. Walker, surgeon, universally
known and praised as the originator of the grave-yard
eiorm, now strikingly successful in many parts of the
Fountry. An address has been issued by this body,
aywhich they notice their friend's earnest self-de-
g efforts for the benefit of the country in one
most
important department of social arrangement—
rather,
_we ought to say, of flagrant mal-arrangement.
Alike by his
writings, by lectures, by evidence before
,11. Committee of the House of Commons, charged with
!Ile investigation of the subject of interments; Mr.
Walker has rendered inestimable service to the sani-
tary
cause. He has done more ; he has vindicated
the sanctities of the dead, and elevated the feelings of
the community in the case of departed mortality. In
the,ap of
Peal the committee it is observed—
., The publication of succeesive editions of many
thousand books, the large expenditure connected with
the diffusion of information through the press and by
public meetings, to say nothing of the time and atten •
.:
"°a abstracted from professional pursuits —these
things involve an outlay and demand a devotion which
"'toot be adequately repaid, requiring, as they do,
that individual peculiarity of mind which, as it can-
not be I.urchased, admits of no scale according to
'which its recompense may be justly fixed."
It is well known that Mir. \\Talker has most se-
riously neglected his private fortune in the prosecu-
tion of a scheme of public importance. Let us trust
the nation will not prove ungrateful, but by liberal
Measures at once mark their esteem for a benefactor,
and also stimulate others to enter upon new measures
of reform and amelioration. We are much gratified
to find that strenuous measures are being adopted by
the committee in London for securing the object
we have the pleasure of warmly recommending._

LIVERPOOL, THURSDAY.
By the Pacific, Captain Nye, we have advises from
New York to the 29th ult.
The Pacific was advertised to leave New York on
the 28th; but when about to leave the wharf her
paddlebox came in contact with a shed, by which a
gentleman named Walker was killed, and others in-
jured. Some of her floats having been knocked off,
it was considered advisable to detain her until the
following morning.
The Pacific passed the mail steam-ship America,
Captain Shannon, hence, at nine o'clock on Tuesday
morning, about 620 miles from Liverpool. The
America had made ,very fine progress considering
the detention consequent upon the humane conduct of
her commander in towing a dismasted vessel into
Waterford, and the heavy gales she had experienced
up to the time of being spoken by the Pacific.
In Congress no proceedings of importance had oc-
curred, excepting a small fracas between Senators
Foote and Fremont, which was, however, fortunately
settled. The Herald describes the scene in appro-
priate language :
" A small fight occurred in the Senate antechamber
between Senators Foote and Fremont. Mr. Foote had
said, in debate, that to pass certain propositions for Ca-
lifornia would be a disgrace to the Senate. Mr. Fre-
mont asked Foote out, complained of his language, and
said it was ungentlemanly; Foote resented with a blow.
They then both clinched.'
Jenny Lind was at Boston, singing at concerts.
Such was the excitement that as much as 625 dolls.
had been given for a single ticket.
All the attempts of the Protectionists to raise the
tariff on British goods had failed.
Congress had passed a very valuable Bill for se-
curing reciprocity of trade and navigation with Ca-
nada.
Flogging in the navy has been prohibited by Con-
gress by a vote of 131 to 29 ; and the grog ration,
which has been considered a frequent cause for its
infliction, has been abolished ; the estimated cost of
the ration is to be added to the sailors' wages.
No little surprise is expressed at a prospect of new
trouble regarding another descent upon Cuba. It
is said that an expedition is on foot for the conquest
of Hayti, and making that island the centre of opera-
tions against the other. All this may be mere rumour,
but certain it is that Mr. Webster has considered it of
sufficient importance to warrant his ordering the im-
mediate departure of two vessels of war for that
quarter, and has desired the attendance of the Spanish
Minister at Washington.
There had been a moderate demand for sterling ex-
change for remittance by the Pacific, without change
in rates, the best bills being at 10 to 10i per cent.
premium.
The packet-ship New World, Captain Knight,
from this port, arrived at New York on the 27th, with

THE POLISH BALL. - With their accustomed
liberality the members of the Court of Com-
Inon Council of the city of London have, we
are rejoiced to perceive, kindly granted the
use of the Guildhall, with all its Lord Mayor's-day
trappings, to Lord Dudley Stuart and the friends of
Poland, for the purpose of bolding the annual ball for
the benefit of the distressed Polish refugees in this
country. The knowledge of the fact that the use of
the Hall was granted for this purpose by an unani-
Mous vote, and the the announcement of the grant was
rect-ived with enthusiastic cheers, cannot but be gra-
tifying to the friends of Poland, who, we trust, will
do their duty as nobly as the members of the Court
of Common Council have performed theirs.

The Governor of South Australia, in his finance
minute laid before the Legislative Council on the 23d of May
last, gives some interesting statistics of the trade of the set-
tlement. The population on the 31st of March last ex-
ceeded 54,000 of the European race. The immigrants in
1849 were 13,824, of whom 6,769 paid their own passage, and
7,055 arrived at the expense of local funds. The fenced
land had been increased in 1849, as compared with 1848,
from 126,613 acres to 138,710 acres. The Customs
revenue in the year ended the sth of April, 1850,
had increased, as compared with the corresponding
period last year, 201 h per cent., viz., from 62,610 i. to
15,379/. The imports increased in value 344 per cent., viz.,
from 471,5391. to 632,6/0/. The exports decreased one-half
per cent., viz., from 485,9511. to 483,4751. The tallow ex-
ported was 5,571 cwts., against 3,867 cwts. the previous
year; the wool exported reached 1,841,1311 b., against
2,243,0861 b. ; the wheat exported to Great Britain and else-
where was 14,497 quarters ; meal and flog r, 1,924 tons. The
amount of tonnage inwards and outwards had increased 43
per cent., viz., from 112,338 to 160,497 tons. Two measures
which had been brought forward for public discussion corn-
rised an ordinance for regulating internal distillation, and
also a system of a penny postage throughout the colony. By
the latter a loss of revenue of:about 1,4001. per annum would,
it was estimated, be incurred.

The Turkish Ambassador was presented to the Pre-

The Washington Republic states that recent ac-
counts from California in part confirm the prediction
of Com. Ap. Catesby Jones, that " forty millions will
be obtained there, during the course of another year,
by working and digging." That gentleman traversed
the country with a view to a knowledge of its agri-
cultural capabilities,' he being a practical farmer
himself, and he came to the conclusion that four
fifths of the country are valuable for agriculture.
He saw wild oats and wild mustard covering fields as
far as the eye could reach, and of the most luxuriant
character. A large tract had been cultivated in corn,
and affording every appearance of a heavy crop in the
dry and hot season. A ditch has been thrown up as
a fence around this corn field ; and the earth forming
the embankment had afforded a luxuriant growth of
lettuces, onions, &c. The country was a sheet of
verdure, and yet without a drop of rain ; neither is
there any dew, as he had found by camping out in the
hottest weather. There would seem to be something
in the climate, soil, or atmosphere, which supplies the
place of rain and dews in the vegetable creation.
Forests of white oak, whose trunks are six or eight
feet in diameter, exist, and some of the trees are so
ancient that they are fit only for fuel. Timber is
abundant and valuable.
Philadelphia was visited by a terrific thunderstorm
on the 27th. Several buildings were struck by
lightning, amongst them a Roman Catholic chapel and
the North American office. Several persons injured
and stunned; no lives lost.
In the Supreme Court, in the case of Catherine N.
Forrest v. Edwin Forrest, Judge Edwards had given
his decision upon the writ of ne exeat. He said the
writ of ne exeat had been abolished by the code ; and
that, as he considered the writ for the arrest of the
defendant had not been regularly issued, the order
must be that Mr. Forrest be discharged from arrest.
A terrible accident occurred on board the steamer
Kate Kearney, at St. Louis, on the 25th ult., by
which a number of lives were lost. She was on her
upward trip when one of her flues collapsed. Four
persons were instantly killed, beside nine who were
severely scalded, and some of whom it is thought
cannot survive. The cabin passengers escaped un-
hurt. The boat was towed back to St. Louis.
Considerable excitement bad been occasioned in
New York by the arrest, under the new law, of a
fugitive slave, who had resided in New York for
some years. He was brought before the authorities,
and ordered to be taken to Baltimore in custody, and
to be then given up to his owner, which order was at
once carried into effect. It is understood that there
are several hundred fugitive slaves in New York, for
the arrest of whom warrants will be forthwith issued.

THE LATE S TORM.—lntelligence has been received
from different parts of the coast of several disastrous wrecks,
attended with loss of life, during the recent storm. On
Wednesday a fishing lugger, named the Henry, arrived at
Yarmouth, and the master reported the loss of two fine
vessels upon some dangerous shoals a few miles from that
port. It appeared that during the violent gale on Monday
the lugger was riding at anchor under the Leman and Owen
sand, when the crew observed a fine ship of between 250
and 3C3 tons bu,den, supposed to have been engaged in the
north trade, coming upon the shoal,. The wind was blowing
a hurricane at the time, and on the ship striking the sea made
a perfect breach over her, and she speedily went to pieces.
Shortly afterwards another vessel, of about the same site
and build, under press of sail, was seen driving towards the
sands, upon which she struck. The crew made vigorous
efforts to get her off, in which they were successful, but the
ship almost immediately sank in deep water. The fearful
state of the weather prevented the lugger from rendering
the least assistance, and the crews of both vessels, number-
at least 20 men, were lost. Other casualties have been re-
ported. The mate and a seaman belonging to the Dove,
from Shields to London, were washed overboard from that
vessel and drowned, off Spurn Point. Several wrecks and
numerous collisions have occurred on the Welsh coast, but
none of them appear to have been attended with any serious
loss of life.

ROYAL MAIL STEAM PACKET COMPANY. A
general meeting of proprietors in the Royal Mail Steam
Packet Company was held yesterday, when a dividend of 21.
Per share was declared for the last half-year, free of income
tax, payable on and after the 15th inst. The report of the
directors is very satisfactory. The working account of the
company exhibits an iucrease in receipts of 11,7151., and a
decrease of expen-diture of 1,767/., making the surplus
13,4811. 16s. 101. more than iu the first halt of the year
1849. The directors allude to the conclusion of the nego-
tiations for the River Plate and Brazil packets, and the re-
newal of the contract for the service of the West India,
Mexican, and South American mails, with her Majesty's
Government. The Brazilian mail service will commence in
the beginning of the next year, for which five new ships are
nearly ready for sea. The advantage in the saving of time
by the present route to the West Indies, which commenced
OR the 2d of August, is referred to, and the directors finally
congratulate the proprietors upon the prospect of a full remu-
neration for their capital, enterprise, and patience.
IIioNMASTERS QUARTERLY MEETINGS.
But-
THURSDAY.—The mi eting in the Town-hall to-
day was well attended, and the settlements generally were
deemed satisfactory. The state of the iron trade has already
been sufficiently discussed, and the proceedings in Birming-
ham elicited nothing new upon the subject. Some trifling
differences of opinion, as is always the case, were expressed
as ta what may be considered the present nominal prices of

ORGAN PERFORMANCE.-0a Wednesday evening,
Mr. Adams, the celebrated organist, exhibited the qualities
of a new organ, just finished by Mears. Gray and Davison'
fur the Centenary Wesleyan Chapel, of Boston, Lincolnshire'
to a large company of amateurs, assembled at the manufac-
tory in the New-road. It is a noble instrument, remarkable
not only for its magnitude and power, but the exceeding
richness and mellowness of its tones. It has three manuals
from the eight4eet C to Fin alt ; the pedal organ extends
from the sixteen-feet C to two octaves and a fourth.
There are two bellows, one for the manuals, and the other
for the pedal organ. The dimensions of the instrument are,
twenty-six feet high, twenty-three feet wide, and eighteen
feet deep. It has 49 stops, and 2,490 pipes. Mr. Adams's
performance was of a popular cast, rather than in the severe
and profound style, of which he is well known to be a great
master, and which is peculiarly adapted to the genius of this
king of inArunien.s. But it was ‘veil suited to the occasion,
and exceedingly elegant aud pleasing. His principal pieces
were selected taum the vocal works of Hamel: " Gentle
airs," " Oh, hail I Jubal's ly re," the chorus, " I'e Sous or
Israel," from Joshua, and " When His loud voice," from
Jepththa. He alw played the second organ concerto, with an
extemi.orary fugue ; en extemporary fantasia, introducing
airs 11% m Don Giovanni; and a melange of airs by N.l giber
and Marschner.

in her internal arrangements as to present a very fine

It may be mentioned that on trying the indicator
after the last experimental trial it was found that the
actual power given out by the engin es, nominally
140, was 602-horse power, with 36 to 37 revolutions
per minute, and a pressure of from 15 to 16 pounds,
of 1.873

This was a great performance, but it shows what an

NEW YORE, SEPT. 29.—There was considerable ani-
mation in the stock-market to-day. A greater portion

the market closed firm. At the first board United
States Sixes went up per cent.; Canton Company 1;
Newhaven Railroad, ; Norwich and Worcester, /;
Reading Railroad, 2; Rochester and Syracuse, 2, from
last sale. Reading Railroad had fluctuated considerably,
within the past day or two. At the second board yes-
terday there were large sales at a decline of lh per cent.
from prices current in the morning; and at the first
beard to-day there were sales at an advance of 2 per
cent. on prices current at the close yesterday. There
ware large orders in the street to-day fur United States
' Sixes, on roreign account, some of which were fulfilled
and some withdrawn for the present. United States
Coupon Sixes sold to-day at 191 per cent. premium.
At the second board all the fancies improved but
