| DISTRICT ITI3W3. on LLAXSILIN. On 1 uesday week*, Sir Watklll W. Wynn, Bart's rent audit took place at the (Jros-i Foxes Inn. The tenantry attended without exception, and at Five o'clock between 80 and i)0 ot them sat down to a substantial spread, laid out in a splendid new room built expressly tor such occasions. The chair was taken by the agent (Ciptairi Burlinson), supported hv the Rev. \V. Jones, T Hughes, fi-'q., Nlr. MorHtnn. AbercynHcth, and others; the vice-chair by Mr. D ivies, Penybryn. After removing the cloth, the chairmm gave the Queen, and the usual loval toasts. i he chairman then proposed the health of Sir Watkin, which was received with en- thusiasm, and drunk with three times three, and one extra for Lady Wynn. The Iev. W. Jones gave the health ot Captain Jiurlinson, who, in re- turning thanks for the kind manner in which his healtii had been received, mentioned the serious loss Mr. Kenrick hatl sustained by fire, and the propriety of insuring, and alluded to the company of which Sir Watkin was chairman, stating that it was a society worthy the atteutiori of fanners in general. Several other toasts were given, and ably responded too. The evening was passed ill har- mony and hilarity, and the company retired at a reasonable hour Sir Watkin paid a visit to the village at 12 o'clock, and kindly pointed out a site on hi. land for the erection of a chapel for the Wes- ieyan .Wetnodist Connection, and the members in the neighbourhood seem highly gnttiticd "ith the exertions of oil their E-q., and ifrs.

TIlE MILITIA.—A notification lias been received by the Lord Lieutenant (Viscount Hill) trom LOltl Panmurc,stating that it is not the intention ofthe government to call out for training any of the militia regiments this year which were embodied in lSi¡5 -56 consequently neither the Shropshire nor Denbighshire regiments will meet for training in lSiiï, COUNTY COI RT, SATUIIDAY, JULY 20, 1857- Before E. L. Iliehards, Esq..—In the action of Cioss v; Wright, which has been before the court several times His Honour decide,1 in favour of the plaintiff, for the full amount claimed for the case of stutre(t hircls-£2 lis Gd. Breeze v. Pratt. This was an action to recover damages sustained by the plaintiff, :\1ary Breeze, who was assaulted by the defendant, John Pratt, who, without any authority proceeded :0 eject her out of her cottage, nolens volens. lie assaulted the door, which he broke open, and then attacked the plaintiff with a mop stail, and did her "grievous bodily h aui." By the evidence it appeared that Mrs. Breeze commenced the assault, so that His Honour was obliged to j^ive judgment for the defendant. The following d"Se, however, fvas administered as a sedative. Addressing the tr.Lillipliin6 bum-bailiff His Honour sail: I tell you that if you like to break into people's houses in this way, without any legal authority to do so, it will serve you right to ha.e your head broken, with the tongs or any- thing e.se, and I think it very improper for any ollice of this sort to be intrusted to one with such an intempelate spirit as yours. Each party will pay their (,wn costs. Tuese were the only cases of public interest. BRITISH AND FOUKIGN BIBLE SOCIETY.—The annual meeting of the Oswestry anniversary branch of this society was held on Friday last, in the large room of "OsburnV' Hotel, T. Barnes, Esq. in the chair. The meeting was address; d iy the Chair- man, the Rev. W. Jones, C. Sabine, Esq., the Rev. Mr. Halbert, the deputation, &c. Tne col- lection at the close of the meeting amounted to £ •5 10s Sid. On Tuesday evening a sermon was preacheu in aid of the society by the Rev. Mr. Halbert when a collection was itiane which amounted to £ 10 5s 3. OSWESTRY AND NEWTOWN* KAfLWAY.—It has been determined that the first sod of this railway is to be cut on Tuesday, the 4th of August next, and on Tuesday last a meeting was held in the Town Hall, Welshpool, to take into consideration what proceedings are to be adopted on the occa- sion, and also to decide upon the steps to be taken to obtain money to tiefray the expenses, as the shareholders' money cannot be applied for the purpose. The secretary, Mr. Howell, informed them that Lauy Wynn had kindly consented to perform the ceremony, and that the other principal ladies of the neighbourhood would also be invited to at- tend. The first sod will be cut near to the Bow- ling Green in Welshpool. It is also probable that that the day will be kept as a gencral holiday in the town. BERSE DRELINCOURT. TREAT TO THE SUNDAY SCHOOL CHILDREN. On Tuesday afternoon last, the teachers and child- ren belonging to Berse Drelincoul t Sunday Schools, were treated by their kind benefactresses, the Misses Hayes, of Gatcwen, to what, we suppose, we must call their "annual" tea, &c., as the Misses Hayes have kept up the good old custom" for a series of years past. The teachers and children to the number of 100, assembled in the schoolroom a little beiore four o'clock, dressed in their best holiday attire; and in a short time afterwards they formed in procession and proceeded towards Gate- wen, singing along the road. When they arrived at the mansion, they were met by the Misses Hayes, and their friends—patrons of the school- who were waiting their appearance. Seven tables were spread upon the lawn in front of the mansion and in a very short time th3 expectant and delight- Ied youngsters were sitting down, each opposite a plate of fruit containing a pile of cherries, figs, currants, and raspberries and other choice dainties tit to set before a king. The 112th Psalm was then chanted as grace in a most creditable manner, Mr. G. Warburton, the clerk of the Chapel, leading this rather numerous choir. We need scarcely to state that the iz p rea( l state that the "spread" was a nice and plentiful one, or that" am pIe justice," &c. was done to it, be- cause that can very wall he imaginud. In lact, their was no end of currant bread, buns, seed cakes, and other mysterious productions of the confec- tioner, whose efforts to please gave very unmistak- able satisfaction, judging by the merry eyes and happy faces of the little guests seated at the tables. After tea was concluded, they chanted the 121st Psilm, and then retired to the lawn to play, whicu most of them did in fine style. After they had pretty well tired themselves, they again joined in a ring near to the tables when th-v were addres- sed in a very pleasing and suitahic manner by the Rev. G. Cunliffc, vicar, ot Wrexham. He reminded them to whom they were indebted for their entertainment, and hoped that they would severally return their acknowledgments to the Misso3 Hayes for their kindness—wtiieh they did. It gave him great pleasure to see them all so happy, and he hoped t ey would all be spared to meet again in after years. We forgot to say, that pre- violl to Mr. Cunliffo'a address, they suu^ a num- her of hymns, anthems, &c., in a very pleasing in 11 %-01'37 1')IL!aSIng and effeecive style, unler the guidance of Mr. Warbui t in, who was much complimented by so- veral fadtes and gentlemen of the company on the success of his teaching. As a finale to the dav's proceedings, Mr. Warburton exhibited to them the wond. rs of the magic lantern, the effect on "young Wales" in this instance being really magical, tor their astonishment broke through all bounds of propriety and decorum. The children were then dismissed, it being now half-past nine o'clock, af- t -r s: ending a must pleasintand delightful evening. There were a few of the children's parents present, each scholar who had a rosette being privileged to invite their mother. The kindness of the Misses Haves is not conlinod to the children of the Na- tional School s, but is extended to all the poor and necessitous in the district. We noticed the follow- ing ladies and gentlemen present on this occasion The Itev. G. Ca,iliffc, vicar, and Mrs. Cunlitfe; the Rev. R. 0. Burton, and Mrs. Burton Masters John and It.

At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, the members formed in procession, and headed by a splendid brass ba,.J, they proceeded to Plasmadoc, the residence of G. H. Whalley, Esq, and formed themselves inline on the lawn in front of the mansion-the band playing a number of spirited airs. In a short time Mr. Whalleymade his appearance,-and after thank- ing them for the compliment which they had paid him, he gave the juvenile members of the society a handsome treat. The procession then proceeded past the British Iron Company's Works, round by Rhosymcdre and back to ituabon along the turn- pike road. A dinner of the most sumptuous cha- racter was ready prepared for them, which was enjoyed very much by the members after their Country Stroll. Mr. Whalley honoured the dinner with his presence, and in the course of the even- ing delivered an eloquent and appropriate address on the advantages and beneficial tendencies of Friendly Societies generally, as they are calculated to ra:se the social and moral condition of the work- ing classes. The utmost good humour and har- mony prevailed during the whole of the evening, I and the members separated much pleased with the day's proceedings. Several new members were entered on the books during the day. ) I Rhosllanerchrugog, LOVE'S LABOUR LOST."—The adage says that the course of true love never did run smooth and we suppose it is never destined to do so. An exemplification of this has occurred at the It ho.* within the last few days. The sweetheart of a young girl was about to proceed to Australia—the mo- dern El Dorado—and she accompanied him as far as .Liverpool to "see him off," and to bid him a liual farewell. It is a end thing to part from those we love, and out Heroine leil that she CL-uid not do so —and live. Sue accordingly determined to cross the ra-inv sea" with her swain, and share his lot" for better or for worse" in that far distant country. One thing, however, there lacked to enable her to accomplish this—they had no money; and it is all but impossible to get to Australia or anywhere else without it. In this emergency she, with a woman's ready wit, hit upon a plan to ob- tain a passageover free. Sae dolfjJ her woman's clothes, and eaLing in aid the kind services of a gallant Jack tar, she rigged herself out as a sea- man, trowsers, hat, and all, and then boldly went to the captain and engaged as a steward. So far all went smoothly enough, but the denouement is unfavourable. As a sailor she was presumed to be fond of grog, aud being invited by her brot;er tais to a night's spree she got top-heavy, aud in the rough weather which ensued, sac discovered her sex. For practising this deception she was taken before a laud lubber in the shape of a magistrate, who ordered her to sheer off back to the Rhos as quickly as possible. She arrived at home dispirited j itis true, out 1101 vanquished. Love was powerful within her, and she deteimilled to escape once more anu to try her luck as a man in a suit of her father s. The plot was skilfully planned, but ac- cidents will occur to mar the best laid schemes, and our heroine to her great mortification was again doomed to suffer the pangs of being found out. They who have felt the pangs of "bitter disappointment" must but sympathise for this love-stricken and true-hearted maiden for (and we quote Barry Cornwall), .Love is an oircrilltz ortlle whole heart, Madam A sacrifice of all that poor life liath And he that gives his all, whate'er that he Uivcs greatly, and deserveth no one's scorn. W DEMONSTRATION AT CARNARVON.— The annual gathering of the North Wales support- ers of the Maine-law movement was held on Thurs- day, in the yard of Carnarvon Castle. There were special trains to Carnaivon, on the occasion, from several places, including Manchester, Warrington, 'I 1 Chester, an i Liverpool. Mr. Alderman llarvcy, Mr. Samuel Pope, honorary secretary to the Alli- ance for the Suppression of the Liquor Tratlie, witb. other supporters of the movement in the localitv, proceeded by tue Manchester train, whi,;h reached Carnarvon at halt-past eleven o'clock in the fore- noon. Altnough the eirly part of the day was showery, tiie afternoon was exceedingly fine, iheie weie taree meetings iielu in the spacious yard of the iLieresting old castle. The pi rtform was raised in the lower part of the slope, near the Eagle Tower, that in which it is said Edward II first drew bieath. it appeared to be almost a gèn- eral holiday in Carnarvon, many of the inhabitants } being members of the temperance society. When the large audience was assembled, it presented a very picturesque appearance. Besides those on the grassy floor, there were numerous grouDS of listeners peering from all points 01 the hollow walls and vast towers of the castle. The great thickness of the ride walls uniting the towers afforded sittin" room along the top (upon for ns) for lengthy rows of people, (Ii if in a gallery others stationed them- selves, in theloophotes of the towers and n,)t ,i fetv ladies might be seen looking down from the very tops of the lofty turrets which surmount the towers,and from which they dislodged the custom- ary occupants, the jackdaws, which new about with apparent anxiety for the close of the procecd- ings. The first meeting commenced at tell o I cl,)'cli in the forenoon, and was presided over h, Mr 1 Phillips, of Bangor. The audience was addressed by the Rev. Owen Jones, of Manchester, in Welil, and the lioa. Neal D„w.—At the afternoon meet- ing, the Rev. Thomas Thomas, the i-ic-ir of the par- Ish of Llanbeblig, Carnarvon, occupied the ehair; and the speakers were the ltev. Canon Jenkins of Llandaff; and Mr. Samuel Pope, of Manchester.— r!IJa" Harvey presided in the evening, and the HOll, ATeal Dow again spoke at some leno-th There was a strong choir of male and female suig- erj irom several congregations, and thev added much to the pleasure of the proceedings by their vocal efforts. THE BISHOP OF OXFORD AT ST. ASAPII AND RHYL.—It having been announced that the Lord Bisaop of Oxford was to preach at St.Asaph Cathe- dral on Sunday last, on behalf of the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts, there was a large number from the neighbouring towns of Denbigh and Itf yl, and places adjacent, at an early hour in the city, all anxious to hear. Long before the Sunday School, which is held in the broad-aisle, was dismissed, that part of the Cathedral was crowded, and every seat in the sa- cred edifice was occupied. The service was com- menced by the Dean the first lesson bein"- read 0 by the Rev. 0. Wynne Elwards, RhyddlarT; the second by the usual ordiil,.I,y; tll,, litany by the Dean an i the commission service bv the L')rd Bishop of Oxford and the Dean. The anthem was taken from the 35th I)salrii-" Piei(I my cause, 0 Lord," and was exceedingly well sung. The text of the Bishop of Oxford's sermon was from the 12th chapter of the Acts of the Apostles and the 24th verse—' But the Word of God grew and multiplied.' The picture which the Right ltev. Prelate drew of Herod's fate, and those of all preceding empires disobedient to the commands of the Oajaipotent, was very forcibly drawn then the reference to this our own country, endowed with so many bless- ed gifts by the same Almighty hand, and the great responsibility we were under to work out Ilis be- hests, for the furtherance of His glorionr, kingdom our presumption in supposing that our riches, our greatness our immense possessions at home and in our vast colonics, were our own, and at our own disposal, fearfully and most truly compared with the fate of Herod then the appeals to oar grati- tude for all these great benefits conferred upon us, and the inestimable love of our blessed Redeemer to our fallen race, never relaxing or growing cold throughout eternity towards us guilty creatures so earnestly and affectionately set forth, might well cause a deep and, it is to be hoped, lasting sensa- tion the audience. It is impossible, in this brief and imperfect sketch, to give anything like a mere outline of this most eloquent and heart-search- ing discourse, suffice it to say, for the present, (in hopes that it will be published,) that the collection amounted to £ 35 Us.. The blessing was pronoun- ced by the Lord Bishop of St. Asaph. In the even- ing the Bishop of Oxford preached at Hhyl, for the liquidation of the dubt on the chnrch,-(the prayers were read by the Rev. Hugh Morgan) —from the lOth chapter of Luke and the 31st verse-" If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be pursuaded, though one rose 'from the dead." The church, inconvenient and small at all times, was densely crowded and the sermon, if anything, surpassed that of the morning, in forcible reason- ing, sound doctrine, energy, pathos, brotherly love and affectionate interest for the eternal welfarw o his hearers. A most liberal collection was-contri- buted. HB'i ■

A SOLICITOR AND HIS CLERK DROWNED.—A sad and painful event occured on Thursday week, at Car Mill Dam, a Urge reservoir of water situate on the estate of Sir Robert T. Gerard, Bart., ami midway between St. Helen's and Billingo. Nri i-, Samuel (laskell, a solicitor, in practice i:1 Sr. Helen's, and his clerk, all intelligent little boy, of the name of George Dixon, aged about I yeirs, went to fish with a rod an'! line at the dam, early on Thursday morning, accompanied by the brother of the former, Mr. Allanson Gaskell, surgeon, who, shortly after partaking of some luncheon, in a little hut there, about eight o'clock, left them, to visit his patients. In the afternoon, Mr. Allanson Gaskell became alarmed at his brother's pro- longed absence, and about three o'clock he went again to the dam, when he saw his brother's hat floating on the water, and the boy's clothing lyin" on the embankment close by. He returned fo St. Helen's, and informed Superintendent Jarvis of his apprehensions, and that gentleman immediately proceeded to Carr Mill, and there found Mr. At. procee d e d to CArr lanson's fears too truly realised. At the top end of the dam, which at that point becomes narrow, and in the centre deep, lay side by side the two dead bodies 01 Mr. Samuel Gaskell and his clerk. They weie drawn out with the grappling irons, the former with all his clothes on, and a strong line, probably used for catching pike, tightly wrapped round his arms and body, and attached to the wrist of the boy, who was naked. The hat was still found floating, and near the spot where the bodies were discovered were found a rod and line, and a fish caught at the end of the line. No evidence as to how the distressing accident happened was adduced before the coroner, but there is no doubt that the opinion formed by the jury is. correct, II namely, that the fish having drawn the rod fioin the embankment, the boy undressed and went into the water to recover the rod, having the strong line fastened to his waist, and held by Mr. Gaskell; that the boy getting near the centre, suddenly plunged over his head, and Mr. Gaskell rushed in to save him, when he got his arms en tang-led with the cord, and thus both were drowned. Viscount Althorp, M.P., has left England, with the intention of making a tour of several months' duration in the United States.

MIDDLE CLASS FEMALE EDUCATION. She's taught to be (-uri'd, scented, crinolin'd, and around. With feet too delicate to touch the To look on useful hc?)thrul labour with disdain. As l'ar below :t proper lady's object and her aim."— CowrEK. 70 the Editor of the Denbighshire Advertiser. Sir,-I have had a desire for a considerable period to say something regarding the kind and quality of female education, especially that kind of it which seems to be so highly appreciated at the present time, among the middle classes of society. Before proceeding further, however, let me first en- deavour to explain what I consider to be the essen- tials of female instruction —what those branches of intellectual culture and manual ability arc, in which every woman ought in early life to receive a fair amount of instruction. As a matter of course, I think every one will admit, that reading, writing, and arithmetic, ought to form a very prominent sec- tion in every system of female education. The ability to read fluently and intelligently, to write a well defined and legible hand, and to express with e.ise,perspicuityand distinctness, the thoughts, ideas, and feelings which arise in the mind, are female accomplishments of a very high order far higher in my opinion than that of being able to play for- eign polkas on the piano, dance contre dances, or chatter indifferent French. A fair knowledge of arithmetic too, of the theory and practice of nu- merical calculation, ought unquestionably to form a component part of female mental tuition. In- stiuction also in the kindred branches of intellec- tual culture, such as grammir, history and geo- graphy, are calculated to fit woman to understand, appreciate an 1 perform those important duties, which in the course ofeveuts, must devolve upon her, both as a wife and mother. At the same time, however, that her mental faculties are properly and j udieiously exercised, and her powers of expression both in spoken and written language duly cultivated, it is absolutely essential that her mind he early embued with a healthy morality, and her whole conduct, character and daily deportment, habitually and svs- teinatically trained to conform thereto. This is a matter of vital importance in the formation of the female character, but before it receives that amount of moral appreciation from the public to which it is clearly entitled, not only must a great reformation take place in the minds of the middle classes regard- ing female education and its proper objects, but I teachers of a far higher moral and intellectual grade must be engaged in this great work than with few exceptions arc yet to be found. In female training, there is no truth that oug'ht more frequently to be impressed upon the mind, to whatever class of society the individual belongs than that in the sphere in which nature and Pro- vidence intends she should move and act, she'shall have important duties to fulfil, aud that the great object of her educational training, is not onlv to impart to her mind a mere intellectual knowledge of those duties, but the manual dexterity and mo- ral ability to discharge them efficiently and well and that hur^own happiness, usefulness, and proper iuiluence, within the ran6 of the domestic and so- cial circles, and ultimately on society at large, will, in a great measure, depend upon the energyj faithfulness, and fidelity, with which she performs those important duties which naturally devolve upon her, in presiding over the management of her house and family. There is still another branch ot' female education to which I have not yet especially adverted—a branch of education which 1 believe to be of the utmost importance to qualify every woman, rightly to sustain the responsibilities of her destine-l lot in lite. The particular branch of female instruction to which I here allude, and which I think so necessary for every worn ;n to be taught, to whatever rank in society she belongs, is what is technically styled domestic economy, or more simply, a training to a knowledge of, and ability efficiently to perform, the various duties of a well c ndueted household. This is peculiarly woman's work; and all experience, with few ex- ceptions, tends t,) show that a family's happiness, comfort, and the future Well-being of its various members depends very much indeed upon the mo- ther's previous training in this most essential I branch of female education. I know that spurious gentility, and the orthodox: creed of conventional manners repudiate the idea of a young Miss ever being taught anything so low and vulgar as plain sewing aud needlework, or how to knit, shape, and darn a stocking; and as for looking after the condi- tion of the various articles and utensils of domestic utility and comfort, oh, horrible young Miss would immediately lose caste if it were known that she had ever been taught such low and unladylike w rk, or so far forgot hor station an I as actually to engage in it. These foolish and absurd ideas and views, entertained by, I fear, a large portion of the middle classe^ regarding female edu- cation, arc prejudicial in their results and unniis- takeably indicate a very unhealthy tone of think- ing, and a mischievous standard of conventional mumers an 1 deportment. Iain sipp this opinion by many eminent female writers them- selves, Mrs. Ellice among the number, who deplore the false frivolous education given to their young countrywomen, and who very conclusively trace those domestic tragedies and catastrophes, which so puniiuly attract the attention ot the puolic irom time to time, to that superficial mental ani moral <liscipline and absurd conventional training, embo- died in the programme of fashionable middle-class education. I have thus endeavoured Sir, to draw an outline of that curriculum of female education, through which every woman ought to graduate, before she can be considered qualified, cither to undertake or superintend the domestic management of a house- hold. In these days, we hear much about the wrongs of woman, of the injury she sustains in being ex- cluded from the exercise of political and municipal rights; but this oxoliLsion, if it be a wrong at all is one, in comparison to those entailed Oil her, by a total want of any education on the one hand, and a false fashionable conventional one on the other. Although woman, from the constittitioiiall)iasof herillind, aii(I the gentle inherent qualities of her nature, is exclud- ed from tilling magisterial and political offices, yet I think it is questionable, if upon the whole she does not exercise more influence throughout the various interests of society than even man himself. That influence of course will be either good or bad, beneficial or the reverse, according to the kind na- ture and extent of the domestic and educational training through which she had previously passed, during the days of her girlhood. It is a matter of history, that almost all great men, those who have been the leaders and lights of the age in which they lived, warriors, statesmen, poets, politicians and philanthropists, have nearly allattributcd the great- ness to which they attained, and the vast power which they wielded in shaping aud directing the world's destines, to maternal influence in early life. And this is indeed only what we should ex- pect for it is to the mother that the early training and management of the child is almost exclusively committed—from her he receives his first impres- sions of right and wrong during those years, when his mind is most plastic, and most susceptible of vir- tuous or vicious biases; her conduct and bearing form to him the highest moral example, according to which he uniformly shapes his own. Here, how- ever, for the present we must stop. V* ith your kind permission I shall have something further to say 00. this important subject at an early period. I am, Sir, yours respectfully, Wrexham, July 20, 18.37. EIUTAS. I OPES AIR PREACHING. I To the Editor of the Denbighshire Advertiser. Sir,—I should feel glad if you would permit me to say a few words to the different religious com- munities of Wrexham through the medium of vour paper. I have been a resident in Wrexham for four years, and during that time I have observed hun- dreds of my fellow townsmen who never attend any place ot worship. Last summer a great effort was made to promote open air preaching, both on the Sabbath and in the evenings of the week, and I am persuaded that much good resulted from it. This summer there appears to be no regularly or- ganised plan, but the matter is left to individual im- pulse and personal inclination, and with the excep- tion of Pentrefelin, where the work has been ear- ried on mainly by the exertions of one individual, very little has been attempted. I think it is much to be regretted that such a fall- ing off has taken place, and fed anxious to know if I nothing could be done to bring back some of the 'I I '-cai anu activity exhibited by us last sum-nor. It seems to me that it would be a very practicable plan for every religious body to confine their operations on Sunday to the immediate neighbourhood of their own chapel. Say Fcnybryn chapel to undertake l'enybryn —preach in the afternoon in the open air and after the service is over invite all who are in the habit of attending no place of worship to come to chapel in the evening. This plan faithfully pur- sued by the friends of every chapel I feel confident would be the means of increasing our congregations, adding to the number of our Sunday schools, and diminishing the drunkenness and vice of every character which exists to such an alarming degree in our town. The lower classcs must not only be preached to, but talked to,—visited in their houses, and invited to come, otherwise but little good will result from all the religious machinery now at work. Yours, ece., A FOLLOWER OF CHRIST. Pentrefelin, July 21, 1857.

With, however, small supplies, the favourable character of the weather for the growing crops very naturally makes buyers relue- taot, to-do more than is absolutely required for the pasing cilnslunption, so we can only report alimited business during the week, small stocks merely ar- resting a decline in prices. MARK LA.Vl-—MONDAY. The supply of wheat from Kent small, from Es- sex moderate, but with that left from last week made a good show; the former was sold at a decline of 4s to 5s per qr. from the prices of this day week, but, satisfactory otters for the latter not being ob- tainable, it remained unsold; in the absence of buyers for foreign, quotations were quite nominal, but a reduction of 2s to :3s would have been accepted. A few samples of new English barley were shewn, quality dry but rather hard, but no sales reported j foreign Is cheaper. Beans and peas bring last week's prices. Some few samples of new peas, of dry and good quality, were exhibited white brought 44s and dun 42s. Oats dull, and Gd to Is cheaper. Xo alteration in the top price of town-made fiour Nor- folk sold at 40s barrrels offered Is to 2s lower. MARK LAN E.—\V EDXF.S DAY Nearly the whole of the supply of English wheat here to-day, was left over from Monday, and the show of samples was tolerably good. There was no life in the trade, yet most of the holders refused to submit to any further reduction iu prices. Over 13,000 quarters in foreign wheat have come in this week. To-day the market was rather extensively supplied, and the amount of business transacted in all kinds was limited, at barely stationary prices. Floating cargoes ruled dull. Fine barley sup- ported previous rates but inferior foreign was Is per quarter lower than last week. Malt sold to a moderate extent, at late rates. The oat trade was less active, and inferior samples were drooping in value. Deans, peas, and flour iis on Monday. HOP-MARKET —BOROUGH, MONDAY. In some quarters a slight improvement is reported; but in other districts the blight has be- come general, and the prospects of anything like an average crop are becoming very unfavourable. The trade continues steady and prices very firm. PonFtc,N.flic- imports of foreign hops into London last week were 53 bales from Hamburg. ENGLISH WOOL MARKET.—MOXDAY. The Colonial wool sales having commenced briskly, and prices, compared with the previous sales, having aclvanccd Id to H per lh, we have to report an improved demand for all kinds of English wool—the supply of which on otter is very moderate and there are few sellers unless at an improve- ment in the quotations of Id per lh. The business doing, however, is not extensive. LEADENHALL LEATHER MARKET.

MOIIE SLAUGHTERS nv THE INDIAN'S.—The St: Joseph Journal of the second inst. publishes a re- port brought by a French trader, that a hundred troops and filty teamsters, under command of Col- onel Summers, were attacked by a large body of Cueyenee an,l Arrupaehee Indians, 200 miles west of Fort Kearney, and all slain. The report is con- firmed by a trader who arrived at Pacific City, Iowa, on the 3nd, and also by the emigrant train from Salt Lake. THE ITALIAX REFUGEES.—A Paris letter in the The runioiir is cur- Independance Beige, says:—"The rumour is cur- rent here that the complaints of the Italian gov- ernment against the refuge granted to Mazzini in England, have been laid before Lord Palmerston by the representative of Tuscany. The rumour adds that Lord Palmerston has declared that the English law did not permit him to refuse hospital- ity to Mazzini, but that Mazzini's movements I would be henceforward watched." THE NEW POLICIJ "—The following letter, found on the person of a professional thief, who robbed one of the equestrian company at Lutter- worth, will show the wholesome terrors inspired by a good police force. A new police force has recent- ly been established in the county of Derbv: "Hakewcll, June 15, 1S57.—Dear Wife, You will surprised at not receiving any money from me, but I assure you there is n, t a chance of doing anything, on account of the new police which is put on in this county, but 1 expect to be in Shef- field to-morrow, and if all be ell, I will send to you from Sheffield. I am very well, hoping you and Tom is the same, from your most loving and affectionate husband, W.II Lcicestcr Mercury. The late review of the 1st and 2nd Life Guards at Wormwood Scrubbs was, o. e (United Service Gazette) hear, anything but satisfactory to either the commander-in-chief or the inspector general of cavalry, and we have reason to believe that more than one resignation has been sent in to the Horse Guards, arising entirely from the wigging the of- ficers received upon that day.
