Mr. HENRY—WeII, you have heard these extraordinary
letters read; what have you got to say to writing such letters,
and attempting to send them to the Archbishop of Canterbury?
The prisoner, in a shrill and penetrating voicc—You should see,
Sir, the whole of the letters to be able to judge of my motive,
as it is stifficientlrapparent in them.
Mr. HENRY, to the servant of his Grace the Archbishop of
Canterbury—Are there any more letters belonging to the pri-
soner than those produced ? Lipscombe—Those were all I
had, your Worship. Some might have reached his Grace the
Archbishop through the
.post, but I don't know what has be-
come of them. The prisoner has told me to-day that he had
forwarded to the palace a larger box, and one of a similar de-
scription to that produced, by the Parcels' Delivery Company,
but I have seen nothing whatever of it.
Prisoner—Yes, that's right enough.
Lipscombe—Well, if it has been received at the palace I
have no doubt you shall have it back.
ilr. HICNRY remarked he should call upon the prisoner to
find good bail, but his impression was that he was insane, and
he should therefore send him with an officer and the letters
produced, before the medical gentleman of the parish of Lam-
beth, to ascertain the real state of his mind, and if insane he
should-be taken care of; if not he ihould then hold him to bail.
The unfortunate man was here removed from the bar, and
Mr. HENRY directed Inspector Evans to take care of the box
by having it safely deposited at the station-house for the present.
SOUTH W ARK.
Yesterday Ann Barrett, a repulsive looking wcman, was
brought before Mr. Traill for re-examination, charged with
robbing a Mr. William Boughton, of Maidstone, of two sove-
reigns, under the following circumstances :
The complainant stated that he was a stranger in town, and
that soon after his arrival, on Thursday last, he met the pri-
soner in Farringdon-street, and that under the supposition'that
she was a servant who had just left her situation, he consented
to take a walk with her. She escorted him over one of the
bridges, and as they were rambling along she made a full stop
at a linendraper's window, which exhibited a rich display of
goods. Having entered the shop, she took a particular fancy
to a shawl, and by this time she had so far ingratiated herself
into the good graces of complainant, that he consented to be-
come a purchaser-for her& the-lirtide she set her heart upon.
Subsequently to the purchase they proceeded to a coffee-house,
and having partaken of refreshment they retired to bed, having
passed as man and wife, complainant depositing his trousers,
containing five sovereigns, under the pillow, and also takins,
the precaution of securing the room door by locking it.'
In the morning, however, when he awoke, he found his
trousers had been removed, and on examination discovered
that two sovereigns had been taken. Surprised at the disco-
very, he accused the prisoner of having been at his pockets, a
charge which she denied, remarking to him that it was proba-
ble some person had entered the room when they were asleep,
and possessed themselves of the money. He, however, said
that such a circumstance could not hare taken place, as the
dour was found lacked precisely as he had left it on their retir-
ing to bed. This fact made no impression on the prisoner,
who still avowed her innocence, and they left the house to-
gether, and on his meeting the first policeman he gave her into
custody. The policeman examined the prisoner's pockets, and
the room in which the parties had slept had also undergone a
search, but the money was not to be found, The complainant
added that he was satisfied the prisoner had robbed him, al-
though the money was not found, and he said she had sufficient
opportunity of throwing away the two sovereigns as they were
going along after leaving the house.
Mr. Luau., as the complainant was se confident of the fact
of his having been robbed by the prisoner, asked him whether
he wished to take the case before a jury ?
The complainant answered in the affirmative, and the pr.'
goner was accordingly committed.

A MAYOR COUNTERFEITING A MAN-SERVANT.—
The Mayor of Windsor, Thomas Clarke, Esq., was placed in a
very unpleasant situation, a few days since, in his journey
from that town to Southampton, accompanied by his daughter,
a young lady about twenty years of age. On his arrival at
the Farnborough station from Windsor, he proceeded thence to
Southampton by one of the fast trains, by which only first-
elass passengers are conveyed, a limited number of servants
only being permitted to travel by these trains, for whom ac-
commodation is afforded at second-class fares. Mr. Clarke
placed his daughter alone in a first-class carriage, and took a
ticket for himself as a servant, thereby saving 35., and seated
himself in a carriage exclusively devoted to that class. Shortly
after the train had left the Farnborough station, it was dis-
covered that instead of Mr. Clarke being the lady's servant,
he was no less a personage than the Mayor of Windsor. This
extraordinary fact was instantly, by means of the electric tele-
graph, communicated to the railway authorities at the
Southampton terminus, where, upon the Mayor's arrival, he
was ushered into a private room and charged with having tra-
velled as a servant to the young lady who was with him, when
in reality he was her own father. He was made to pay the
difference in the fair which ho had saved by the ruse he had
practised, and very politely told that he had rendered him-
self liable to be fined 403. The money was paid and the
Mayor and his daughter pursued their ourney to the Isle of
Wight.

1-'ll E CROPS.—Harvesting has been commenced in
this vicinity, and haymaking has progressed. On Sunday we
saw some hay being turned, which was ready for making a
month or five weeks ago, had the weather permitted the opera-
tion. It is, of course, greatly discoloured, and deprived of
sweetness. Sunday, being a drying day, gave a spur to the
reaper, and a great quantity of corn fell on Monday ; but on
Tuesday, thelfields were deluged with heavy raini—sueceeiled
yesterday by sunshine and fine drying winds, which, if conti-
nued a few days, would prove of inestimable value. The
disease in the potato crop is increasing.—Dever Chronicle.

Canterbury, deposed that about ten o'clock on that forenoon
the prisoner presented himself at the principal entrance to Lam-
beth Palace and demanded an interview with his Grace the
Archbishop of Canterbury. Having been in the habit of
frequently calling at the palace with letters and oackages for
his Grace the Archbishop, and also having refus-d to give any
account or explanation of his object in addressing his Grace,
witness stopped him, and in order to put a stop to his fur-
ther annoyances, and fearing also that some time or other
he might avail himself of an opportunity of getting access to
the palace, he (witness) sent for a policeman and gave him
into custody. In reply to the question of Mr. Henry the
witness said the prisoner had been in the habit, for upwards
of a .month, of endeavouring to get an interview with his
Grace the Archbishop, and also endeavouring to for-
ward letters and parcels to his Grace ; but, as he had always
refused to disclose his object or the purport of the letters, he
(witness) had received instructions from the steward not to
forward them to his Grace. Having particularly noticed his
writing, witness stopped two of the prisoner's notes, addressed
to his right rev. master, but he had no doubt, from what ho
had himself acknowledged, he had managed to forward some
communications to the Archbishop through the post. The
prisoner appeared to him (witness) not to be in his right mind,
and upon one or two occasions, about a fortnight ago, he
threatened that if he did not get to speak to his Grace he would
stop the carriage and address his Lordship.
Mr. HENRY—Are you aware whether he has done so?
Witness—l am pretty eertain he has not, Sir, for his Grace
find the family have been out of town, so that he had no oppor-
tunity ; but his Grace is at present in town. The witness, in
continuation, said that a box, which was at present. in the pos-
session o: the constable, had been forwarded by the prisoner to
Lambeth Palace, and, according to the prisoner's own state-
ment, a second box had been forwarded to the palace also by
him, and, in conclusion, the witness handed to the bench the
two letters to which he had made reference, and which :he
prisoner himself had acknowledged to be in his handwriting.
The police-constable, 135 L, who had taken the prisoner
into custody, here produced a large square parcel covered with
great care, sealed up and directed to" His Grace the Archbishop
of Canterbury, Lambeth Palace ;" which Mr. Henry directed
to be opened. This was done, and upon the paper being removed
a ladies' work-box of considerable size and beauty was exhibited.
In fact it was a splendid specimen of art, and must have occu-
pied the unfortunate prisoner several months in its completion.
Its top, ends, and sides were composed of the most choice and
beautiful rose, maple, and coloured woods of different hues,
and the figures which it exhibited by the inlaying of small por-
tions of the variegated wood were of the most tasteful and
beautiful description.
Henry Hutchin, an assistant to Mr. Mathews, a pawnbroker
in Princes-street, Princes-road, Lambeth, and who happened
to be in the court on other business, here stated he had known
the prisoner for two years or upwards, and though somewhat
eccentric, believed him to be a most ingenious person. He
had pledged a table at his (witness's) master's shop for six
guineas, which was inlaid with woods in the most beautiful
manner, and be believed it to be his invariable practice to pledge
all tne work he had done, as it was not his wish that it should
get into the market and become common. The box produced
had been executed with the greatest taste and care, and must
have occupied the prisoner at least three months in its com •
pletion. The witness added that the prisoner was always
dressed, winter and summer, and hot or cold, just as he then
appeared, in a thick pilot coat buttoned up close to the chin.
English, one of the summoning officers of the court, said the
prisoner had on one or two occasions made application to Mr.
Norton at this court for his assistance, and complained of the
annoyance which he had experienced from being followed by a
parcel of idle boys, and he (English) had been sent to make
inquiries, and warned the parties guilty of the annoyance of
the consequences of their persisting in it. On going to make
the necessary inquiries the neighbours complained of his being
a nuisance in the neighbourhood, as he alone occupied a house
which had all the appearance, from its closed up and
dated appearance, being completely deserted, and that he kept
loaded pistols there.
Mr. HENRY asked the prisoner what he had to say to the
charge which he had heard made against him? He (Mr.
Henry) should in the first instance request the clerk to read the
very extraordinary letters addressed by him to his Grace the
Archbishop of Canterbury, and should then request some ex-
planation of his conduct.
Mr. Gunn, the clerk, then read the following letters, which
we give verbatim, and which were written in a careless and in-
different hand, and addressed to " His Grace the Lord Bishop
of Canterbury" :
" My Lord, —You will question me what object i have in
♦iew—i shall be able to tell much better what i am fit for when
my mind is more settled. Should i gain your favour you will
be able to make something of me—i think i shall be fit for a
member of Parliament or els a magistrate. Aly Lord, i want
to he away from here, can you lodge me anywhere, i wish some
one would come up to my house the next time i come to the
palace i want to come for good, there will be time for me to re.
move to-day after you have received this note.
" i am, my Lord, your obedient servant,

THE EXPLOSION AT JARROW
COLLIERY.
(FROM A CORRESPONDENT.)
INQUEST ON TILE BODIES.

The inquest was begun by the examination of Mr.
Jobling, viewer of the colliery, who was observed fre-
qnently to shed tears as he detailed the proLTedings that
he and others adopted as soon as made acquainted with
the occurrence, and informed the jury that, in his
opinion, the lire had originated in the low main scam, at
a spot denominated the West Flat Mothergate Board,
and gave as the only reason for th4t opinion that he hri'l
on the Saturday and tinivlay heard the gas issuing from
the coal or stone, he could not tell which, seeing that
he could not get to the spot on account of some very
heavy falls cf stone. lie gave testimony al oas to the
general safety and excellent ventilation of the pit previous
to the explosion, which was corroborated by the sub-
sequent witneses.

There was one (imam:dance connected with the Coro
net's conduct in this melancholy. affair that I feel desi-
rous of drawing your attention to, namely—on Saturday
last, several of the friends of the sufferers requested Mr.
Thos. Horn, of Newcastle, Mr. James Mother, of South
Shields, and myself to attend the inquest, and solicit the
Coroner to allow us to ask a few questions of the witnesses,
which might appear to us requisite to elicit every infor-
mation connected with the explosion, also to request the
Coroner to adjourn the inquest for a day or two, i❑
order to ascertain whether Sir J. Graham would
consent to send down the Commissioners lately appointed
to examine into the ventilation of mines, }se having been
written to for that purpose. However, the Coroner re-
fused to adjourn the inquest, although one material
witless was absent—the man who had been saved after
being thirty-six hours in the pit, but who is in so weak
a state at present as not to be able to be examined.
This conduct on the part of the Coroner, to say the
least of it, did appear to ui as very uncourteous to the
relatives of the sufferers.

MARKET IN TELLIGENCE.
(From the London [Veto Price Current of Aug. 26.)
Sue Asa.-To-day there was less desire shown to purchase
West India Sugar of all descriptions, and only a small business
was transacted. Holders, however, for the most part were
firm, and refused to sell but at former rates, the supply at mar-
ket being still small : in some cases, however, a slight decline in
prices was submitted to. At public sale 100 hhds of Barbadoes
Sugar went off at very full rates-low yellow at 495, mid-
dling 49s 6d to 51s 6d, good 52s to 52s 6d, fine 53s to 545,
and one lot of very fine 56s (3d per cwt. The total quantity of
Sugar sold to-day amounted to only 400 hhds and tres. Eight
vessels have arrived off the coast from the West Indies, chiefly
laden with Sugar.
REFINED.--To-day prices further • declined for Refined
goods, standard lumps selling at 675, and brown grocery at 65s
so 6tis per cwt; at these rates, however, a fair business was
done, but several parcels are offering for sale. Bonded Crushed
Sugar is held with firmness at 43s to 43s 6d per cwt, but there
is still little to be had.
I<lAualTlus.--Thjs afternoon the market was better sup-
plied with Mauritius sugars-fine yellow fetched 535 to 545,
good 52s to 52s 6d, good mid 51s, mid 49s to 50s, low yellow
48e to 48s 6d, fine brown 47s to 47; 6d, good 45s to 46s 6d,
mid 43s to 44s 6d, low 40s to 425, low to good grey 43s to 51s,
washed 38s 6d to 51s, and sugar drainage damaged 43s 6d to
50s 6d.
EAST Itinta.-This afternoon the market was better sup-
plied with Bengal Sugar-good middling white at 57s 6d to
58s, middling 55s to 565, low 54s 6d, damp and washed 53s
to 56s 6d, middling sound yellow not grainy 53s to 54s 6d,
damp and washed 51s 6d to 525!6d,- low date sound grey 455,
and damp 44s 6d, but brown -was taken in above the value-
middling damp bright at 40s, and good 40s 6d to 41s per cwt.
FOREIGN.-To-day several inquiries existed for all kinds of
Foreign Sugar, and stiffer rates were offered. A floating cargo
of 800 chests of fine white Havannah was sold at 42s per cwt.
A mixed cargo has been sold, but the particulars have not
transpired.
COFFEE.-This afternoon Coylon Coffee was in limited re-
quest privately, but holders would not take lower rates; 600
bags 14 casks at, public sale were partly sold at 47s to 48s
for good ordinary Native; in casks, fine ordinary pale
was taken in at 50s per cwt. 42 casks of British
Plantation went rather cheaper; Jamaica, low middling
mixed at 80s, fine fine ordinary 75a, fine ordinary 555, good
ordinary 47s 6d to 50s, low ordinary 37s 6d to 40s, triage 30s ;
Demarara, ordinary mixed red unclean 345. 52 bags of La
Guayra were taken in, fine ordinary grey at 50s, and good
ordinary at 45s to 48s per cwt: Bir private treaty some par-
cels of Padang were sold at 395, and Rio at 31s to 35s per cwt.
TEA.-An increased desire has been shown to purchase Con-
gou, and a good business has been transacted at 1,%d per lb ad-
vance for the lower sorts, whilst the better fully support late
rates. Pouchong has been in excellent request, and
brings stiffer rates. Twankey sells freely and prices are firm.
Of Hyson many parcels were disposed of, but holders at present
cannot obtain better prices. For Young Hyson a much better
demand has been experienced, chiefly for exportation, and
a slight advance in the value has taken place. For Gunpowder
prices do not improve, but the trade are more inclined to get
stocked with this kind of tea. Scented Orange Pekoe is held
with tirmness, and there has been more doing at 2s lld to 3s
2d for good and fine.

RICE.—The market for all kinds of East India was in a dull
state all last week, and although there were sellers at a consi-
derable decline in prices, stilk.f.gas buyers 'were
.to be met with.
To-day Bengal Rice was 501d1.6 a 'fair *eit4lit' privately at 14s
to 17s per cwt, according to quality—none has been .offered at
public sale.
SPlCTS.—Cassia Lignea is much wanted, and the supply
being not ample for the demand, prices keep high. Black
Pepper has been in excellent request, and the rates pre-
viously established are supported for Malabar and Pe-
nang, but Sumatra must be quoted at id per lb
cheaper. White has been in excellent request privately, and
stiffer rates are given. Pimento is much in request, and prices
have risen id per lb. For Jamaica Ginger the demand
has improved, and 81 pkgs at auction were chiefly sold at the
former value. In East India the operations are upon a more
extended scale at late rates. Mace fully supports the former
currency. Nutmegs are much in demand, and the tendency of
prices is still upwards. Of inferior and jungle kinds of Cin-
namon several parcels have been disposed of, in consequence of
holders taking very low rates.

and.prices keep up, for 159 puns 31 to 34 per cent over proof

cutta refuse to reduce, but the demand has become limited.
Leeward Island is 4cl to 6d per gallon cheaper than
last year. In Brandy sales to a large extent
have been made for all purposes, and an advance
,

Spirits, and the supply is not large ; 10s 2d per gallon is the
value, nett cash.
SA LTPETKE. —To-day Rough met with little attention, and
of 1.660 bags of Calcutta offered at public sale a small part
only sold at about the former value, viz., good strong grey, 51
per cent refraction, at 25s 61, unretracted 24s 6d to 25s ; da-
maged ditto, 223 6d ; the remainder was all taken in—fine
strong grey, 2* per cent refraction, at 26s 6d ; to per cent,
good strong 26s ; 6 per cent ditto 25s 6d. There were buyers
of the whole 6d per cwt under these rates.
OlLs.—Southern Oil has been in good demand at previous
rates. For Seal the demand has been brisk by private con-
tract, and prices continue on the rise. The market for Cod
is in a dull state, and prices are drooping ; there are
sellers at 30/., but few buyers to be met with. For Sperm Oil
prices do not improve, but the demand privately has been good at
81/ to 831 for British, and 71/ to 801 for American; at auction,
however, 30 tuns were withdrawn. For Palm prices are fully
as high, and several transactions have taken place privately; 124
casks at auction fetched 24s to 29s per cwt for low to
fine quality. 3i casks of Ceylon at auction were
disposed of, fine at 321 to 321 Iss, good 31/ 105, and
middling at 301 5s to 30110 s per tun. For Linseed Oil further
reduced prices having been taken occasioned buyers to come
'forward with increased freedom. The demand for home con-
sumption has been very good. Rape, pale at 35s to 35s 61
and brown 34s to 34s 6d. Olive, Gallipoli at 401 to 40008,
Spanish and Sicily 381 to 39/, Barbary, Levant, and Portugal
3t3 10s to 37/ lOs per ton. Lard Oil is 42/ to 441.
TALLow.—Prices have ruled firm for Russian on the spot
since this day week, and the demand has been very good for
town and country consumption. For forward delivery exten-
sive purchases have been made at 41s 6d to 41s 9d for new for
the last three months of the year, and 42s per cwt for separate
months ; indeed, some parties will not sell at these rates. For
other kinds of Tallow the demand-has been active, and prices
continue on advance, although the market is yet well supplied.
