OXFORD INTELLIGENCB.—We are reminded by a cor-
respondent that the name of J. Leigh, Esq., commoner of Bra-
zennose College, Oxford, was omitted in our list of seceders
from that University to the Romish faith. The number now
amounts to thirty;. and we have good reason to believe that
several more are contemplating secession. We learn from
Oxford that the Rev. Mr. Coffin, vicar of St. Mary Magda-
lene, in that city, as not. performed the duty of his Church
since the secession of Mr. Collyns, his curate, his place being,
at present, occupied by the Rev. W. Macmullen.—Church
and State Gazette.

THE— REV. R. W. SIBTAORPE.—It appears to be
the general opinion (says one of our correspondents) that
the Rev. Mr. Sibthorpe has returned to the Protestant com-
munion. If he has (which is doubtful), he would be doing
immense service to the Protestant cause by publishing the
reasons for his return, as an antidote to the publication of
his reasons for joining the Roman communion, under the
titles, " Some Answers to the Enquiry, Why are you Become
a Catholic?" and, "A further Answer to the Enquiry, Why
have you Become a Catholic?" Our correspondent, there-
fore, publicly requests most earnestly, in behalf of the Pro-
testant community of which he is a minister, that Mr. Sib-
thorpe will favour the public with some answer to the
enquiry, "Why are you again Become a Protestant?—
Church and State Gazette. _ _

JACK AND THE BISHOP.—When Dr. Lipscombe,
the late Bishop of Jamaica, went on board her Majesty's ship
the Magnificent, to dine with the Admiral, on making his
appearance on deck, in full canonicals, which of course in-
cluded the significant apron, a tar sagaciously inquired of
his brother Neptune, " I say, Jack, do you know who this
'ere is ?" " No, I don't," said he, " except it is the master
blacksmith who is come to take measure of our new funnel."
—Baptist Herald.
WHOLESALE SHEEP-STEALING.—The graziers and
farmers in various parts of the country have recently been
thrown into a state of much alarm in consequence of the
wholesale plunder they have experienced of their sheep and
other produce, and information of the robberies were forwarded
during the past week to the officers and stations of the Metro-
politan and City police—viz., from the grounds of Mr. Thomas
Hargreves, of Lamb hill Fell, near Slainburn, Yorkshire, were
stolen a few days since no fewer than 120 sheep, of different
ages and kinds; from a field at Northtleet, Shadwell, were
stolen 36 sheep, the property of Mr. Westhopp, biscuit-baker
of that place ; from Brunsop, Hereford, the property of Mr.
Adams, farmer, 9 ewer, and 2 lambs; from Peopleton, near
Upton Snodbury, the property of Mr. John Rogers, butcher,
5 ewe sheep ; from Abbiugton Lodge Farm, by the shepherd,
3 wether sheep, the property of Mr. Etty ; from a sheep-fold.
at New Farm, Bagshot, 2 tegg sheep, the property of Mr.
Lane, farmer; from a turnip-field, on the farm of Clifford
Forge, 2 lambs ; and from a field near the Ferry-gate, Rye,
were stolen 3 ewe sheep.
A deception of a somewhat novel nature was prac-
tised at Romsey in the early part of the week. On Sunday
evening a person applied to the parish clerk, representing
himself as a servant of Mr. Cheyney, a respectable farmer, of
Beaulieu, in the New Forest, and stating that he was sent
by his master to give notice of the fun eral of his son on the
next day. He had the appearance and manner of speech of
a rustic labourer, and from there being a vault in Romsey
churchyard belonging to relatives of Mr. Cheyney, and a
simple truthfulness in the fellow's story, it was accredited, and
on Monday morning preparations were accordingly made, and
the vault opened. He had obtained a shilling or two on
Sunday, on the plea of having lost half-a-crown, which had
been given him by his master; and on Monday morn-
ing, after witnessing the commencing labours of the men
employed in the burying-ground, he pleaded cunningly, both
to the clerk and sexton, for the temporary loan of two shil-
lings more, but here his artifice failed, and he was shortly
afterwards missed. Mr. Cheyney (who has recently been
twice falsely and vexatiously misrepresented) has expressed
his ignorance of the vagabond, and his determination to
punis him if he can be detected. The churchwardens have
also taken up the matter, and information has been lodged
with the police, which will, it is hoped, lead to his appre-
hension. To further their efforts to bring to punishment
this wanton violator of the sanctity of the tomb, the follow-
ing description of his person is given, which may serve to
establish his identity :—He is about sft. 4in. high, about 19
years of age, and has the appearance of a country servant ; he
is of dark complexion, has dark brown hair, and is without
whiskers; he wore a blue frock coat, white trona( rs, and a
brown cap, and had with him a small black terrier dog, of the
Scottish breed.—Devizes Gazette.
Notwithstanding the temporary suspension of rail-
way sveculation, bona fide schemes still occupy much attention. The
numerous schemes for opening a railway communication with liar-
wich form a prominent topic of discussion, and the general impres-
sion appears to be, that that scheme which unites a railway with
extensive docks at the above-mentioned port, is the one which will
most contribute to national interests, as well as to the advantage of
individual shareholders, and that scheme will no doubt meet with the
cordial support of both the honourable representatives of this ancient
bnorogh and the Members for Essex.—Railway Times,;Nov. S.
MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE OF LADY ADELA
VILLIEES.--This young lady has left her home in a clandestine man-
ner, deeply to the grief of her Noble father ; who, we lament to
learn, is dangerously affected by the imprudent step taken by his
daughter. It appears ftom the account furnished by a relative of
the family, that Lady Adele was remaining with her father, the Earl
of Jersey, at East Lodge—the Countess of Jersey, accompanied by
Lady Clementina Villiers, and Prince and Princess Nicholas Ester-
hazy, having gone on Tuesday, the day previous to Lady Adela's
mysterious departure, to Arundel Castle, on a visit to the Duke and
Duchess of Norfolk. At dusk Lady Adele was in the drawing-room
with the Earl, and affectionately took leave of his Lordship to go, as
she stated, to the nursery ; but, at the ginner hour, on the Noble
Earl inquiring after his daughter, a search was made, and she was
nowhere to be found. We are informed, that on inquiry the Earl's
family received intelligence that a lady answering the description of
the fair fugitive was observed to leave by one of the railway trains
for London, in the protection of a tall gentleman, but at this point
all trace has been lost. Immediately on the sad information reach-
ing the metropolis, the Hon. Captain Frederick Villiers left town
express for Gretna-Green. There is not even a conjecture as to the
probable retreat of the young lady, and up to a late hour last even-
ing no additional information was gained. No attendant accompa-
'ied her Ladyship. Viscount Villiers arrived in town yesterday after-
noon from Upton House, his scat in Warwickshire.
A new steamer, called the Cygnet, has been placed
on the Trent, to ply between Nottingham and Oainsborough.
RICH DlSCOVERY.—Yesterday afternoon a pooraboy
of the name of Neville, who resides with his aunt (having no parents)
in Lincoln-court, Drury-lane, was playing with some lads near the
mortar, in St. James's-park, and observed a small book, upon open-
ing which it was found to contain a number of papers, letters, and
notes to the following amount :—Three Bank of England for 200/., one
for 100/., and two for 101. ; two cheques, one for 75/., and the other
for 9/. ; besides a number of promissory notes and bills of acceptance
upon continental houses, amounting in all to above 2,000/. The book
is of foreign manufacture, and the letters, which arc principally in.
German, gave no clue to the right owner.
DEFINITION OF A LOW-BRED WOMAN.—One who
stays at home, takes care of her children, and never meddles
with the business of her neighbours. Species almost extinct.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Sin,—Do you not think that an illuminated dial to the
clock of the Royal Exchange would, in the evening, be more
acceptable to the citizens of London than the one now in
use, and which would be seen quite as well during the day,
while the expense would be comparatively very small? By
carrying out this hint in the pages of your valuable, and
therefore widely-circulated journal, you will oblige yours,
obediently, A STRANGER TO LONDON.

MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS.

CITY. FRIDAY EVENING.

CHRONICLE.—There seems to be a general gloom over the Money
Market, as if the country were on the eve of sonic convulsion. The
long and frequent sittings of the Cabinet have been the cause of this
anxiety ; it being naturally supposed that measures of great and
pressing importance must form the subject of their adjourned delibe-
rations. The truth must come out on this subject in a few days, and
should it lead to a 'conviction that the "corn-laws are doomed,"
there does not appear reason to apprehend any serious derangement
of the currency from such a desirable concession. We have observed,
on previous occasions, that the first results of opening the ports would
be to drain off bullion in exchange for corn, and to create a greater
demand for money at home. The Bank Directors, with their
diminished store of surplus notes in the banking department, could
not continue to supply the void in the currency which would be
created by the return of notes for gold to the issue department
by enlarging their discount business or by the purchase of Stock
and Exchequer-bills. They have, indeed, been operating as
sellers of the latter already, and if the exchanges were to
assume an unfavourable aspect they might feel it necessary to in-
crease the rates of discount to four ;per cent. But with money at
that rate, and the fears of coming scarcity removed by the admis-
sion of food free of duty, the want of confidence which is now so preva-
lent would be alleviated. Supposing that the Bank should lose five
millions of its specie, there would be still a good supply left on hand,
and with that drain upon its store, the failure of the potato crops and
deficiency of the harvest in England and Scotland might certainly be
overcome. The railroads will form employment for the population,
and with open ports the clouds now hanging over the commercial
and trading interests would disappear. We are thus led to the con-
clusion that there is more fear than occasion calls for, and that after
the 30th of November, when many of the scrips of new projects must
be witl.drawn and cancelled, that the Stock and Share Markets will
assume a healthier appearance. A clearance of considerable extent
must take place in the market for scrips after the 30th of November,
from the neglect er inability of the promoters to prepare
their plans and sections, and to make the deposits of documents in
the Private Bill offices, enjoined by the standing orders. The rail-
way world should all turn corn-law repeaters. If the ports of this
country had been open free of duty for the importation of foreign
cora, the alarm created by the deficiency of the harvest would not
have been felt, and the schemes of internal improvement would have
escaped the check which so materially interferes with their fhture
progress. A high price of corn and a high price of railivay shares at
one and the same time is an impossibility. The money that would
be employed in railways is diverted to the purchase of:the necessary
means of subsistence, and enterprise of every kind suffers when food
is dear. All that can be said of the Railway Market to-day is, that
prices of registered shareS are not lower than yesterday, but many of
the scrips of new schemes are still unsaleable. The scrip of Great
Canada West is now bordering upon par; Rhenish 13.6 to 2 prem.
We understand that the failure of Mr. A. Young, of the Stock Ex-
change, who was lately declared a defaulter, was occasioned chiefly
by the inability of his principals to meet their engagements.
HERALD.—The advance in the minimum rate of interest and
discount by the Bank of England to 3 per cent., which we notified
last night, has formed the leading topic of interest in the City
throughout the day. People are, however, gradually becoming bet-

ter acquainted with the relation in which the Bank now stands with
the public, and the influence of the:alannists is lessening in proportion,
. . . . . . .

In addition to what we have lately stated on this subject, it 'is not
out of keeping to state that for a considerable time past the Bank has
not in practice adhered to their minimum rate ; and it is on that
ground chiefly that the formal publication of notices has been con-
sidered superfluous if not actually injurious. Nor has the change
in the value of money, which the advance now made by the
Bank would indicate, been anything like so sudden or extensive
as people generally seem to have imagined. For several
months past the current value of money in the Market was
observed to be sensibly on the increase, and, in point of fact, it had
advanced beyond the minimum now named by the Bank for any-
thing but what are termed first-class securities. It was only in con-
sequence of the Bank of England continuing to transact a portion of
its business at the rate of two and a half per cent., that the currant
rate for ordinarily good paper was not up to from three and a half to
four per cent. upwards of three months ago, and the Bank Directors
have been much reflected upon by the other banks and discount
houses for by that means keeping the value of money, nominally at
least, below the natural level. The Bank Directors were, however,
not at all blameable, in the' new relation in which they stand, for
following that course. Their object was to attract customers to their
shop on the usual principle of competition for the benefit of
their pi oprietors, and the large extent of their capital enabled
them for a time to underbid their neighbours to accomplish
that object. Their conduct was therefore identical with that of every
trader in the country possessed of larger capital, who calculates that
by reducing his rate of profit he so increases the nnmbor of his cus-
tomers that the low rate produces a larger aggregate return than
the relatively higher one. This is precisely the position of the Bank

under the new currency law, and the sooner that the community is
familiarised with the idea that the movements of the Bank of Eng-
land, in respect to the rate of interest, are of no more moment or
value than that they represent a given amount of cap:tal to be turned
to the highest attainable rate of print, the better. It will require
some time to take off the prestige with which the institution was
surrounded in the minds of the people from the association of
ideas that almost formed part and parcel of the Govern-

went ; but the . real position it now occupies is well
understood by the moneyed interest, and their knowledge
will be gradually diffused. That was obviously a part, and a
most essential part, of the plan of Sir Robert Peel in his late currency
measures ; and it is proper that the banking interest throughout the
United Kingdom should not lose sight of the fact for a moment, that
in all emergencies they must rely upon their own means, and not on
the Bank of England. With respect again to the advance in the
real, and not merely in the nominal value of money, we repeat, that,
in so far as it arises from the increased demand for the construction
of railways and other industrial investments over Europe, it is a mat-
ter for gratulation and not of regret. For many years past it was
An almost universal complaint on tile part of persons that had accu-
mulated capital, that they could find no profitable mode of investing
it with adequate security; and every new opening for its employ-
ment with an increased rate of profit acts upon the interests of the
community in the same manner as an addition to our fertile land for
the production of food.

THE FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE

BRISTOL AND BIRMINGHAM RAILWAY.

SroKE, FRIDAY EVENING —The inquest on the body of the
unfortunate man, Humphrey Willis, who was killed yesterday
morning by being run over by the mail train from Birmingham to
Gloucester, has been held this afternoon before Mr. Hughes, co-
roner, and a respectable jury. _ .

After viewing the body, and a short address from the coroner,
the jury proceeded at once to examine the witnesses. The body
presented a most horrible spectacle, being smashed to pieces, and
defaced from all human resemblance.

Mr. Saunders, secretary, Mr. Beale, one of the directors, and
Mr. Connell, superintendent of the goods department, attended
the inquiry.

Mr. W. Davis, shoemaker, of Stoke, was the first witness exa-
mined. He was with the deceased drinking en Wednesday night
until half.past eleven o'clock, when they lett together. The de-
ceased expressed his intention of proceeding home up the line, as
he bad done before, and witness tried to dissuade him from so
doing, but with gut avail. The deceased said he knew what he was
about, and that by the linehe should save some distance in travel-

ling. Witness was perfectly sober, and the deceased did not appear
drunk. They had been drinking ale together, but the deceased
had had two noggins of gin.
The next witness was a man named Shellard, who had also been
with the deceased and the last witness drinking, on Wednesday
Hight. lie corroborated the conversation spoken to by the List
witness, as having taken place between Davis and Willis. Ile
(witness) knew it was useless to attempt to dissuade Willis from
going up the rail, as he was an obstinate 10an,,, and would have his
own way. He had known him frequently pass up the rah when
trains were due at night, and when he was not sober. The de-
ceased appeared fresh, but not drunk, on Wednesday night.
Edwaid Cheshire, the engine-driver of the mail train on Wed.
nesday night, deposed that he left Birmingham with the train at
ten minutes past one o'clock, and on approaching Stoke station he
observed a man standing on the line. He immediately shut off
the steam and put on the whistle, with the object of alarming the
party and stopping the train. They stopped in about two hundred
yards, but the deceased being only abotA thirty yards off when wit-
ness first saw him, and not moving out of the way, the train passed
over him. Witness sent the fireman and guard back to the spot,
where they found the deceased lying on the line. It was a dark
night, and raining at the time.
Richard Barnett, the fireman, spoke to similar facts as the
driver of the train, and described the appearance of the body when
picked up. The train was proceeding at a speed of about 9.8 or
30 miles an hour; not faster than usual for a mail train. The
rails were slippery from the rain, and the train not easily stopped.
Mr. Stubbs, manager at the Stoke station, stated that he had
repeatedly warned the deceased off the line.
The CORONER having summed up, the jury unanimously re-
turned a verdict of " Accidental death,'' inflicting a deodaud of
one shilling only on the engine. At the same time the jury ex.
pressed themselves perfectly satisfied with the conduct of those who
had the charge of the engine.
It was stated in the course of the proceedings that no report
had been made to the board of Directors of the repeated tres-
passes on the line by pedestrians.
The Company intend burying the deceased at their own cost.
He has left a widow, but no children.
