(From the Dods, News.) SATURDAY EVENING. The mining share market during the week has ptes-r i t t - 4 1 . the same satisfactory features noticed in our last review. for many descriptions, including West Providence, Tremayne, and Mary Ann shares, there have been numerous inquiries, and as most of these stocks are very firmly held, no large numbers can be picked up ut present prices. Dividend and improving shares attract a fair share of attention, and show an upward tendency. The accounts from the mining districts continue to speak of great acti vity, the fineness of the weather being favourable for operations. The attention of parties interested in the metal markets has during the week been mainly directed to the great annual sale of Itasca tin at Amsterdam, of which the result and its probable effects have been already touched upon under this I head. Since the sale the market here has been " quiet ; otherdescriptions of metals generally meet with $1 a fair demand at full prices. sl The following is the latest quotation of prices : se.

THIS DAY. Two o'CLocx. The week's market has opened extremely quiet, and, in the entire absence of active operations, the firmness of prices forms a very favourable feature. Where bargains have ban concluded to-day, better prices have generally been paid, Great Westerns, Lancashire and Yorkshires, and Midlands especially marking higher. It is not unlikely that this week may witness a good deal of movement, as it embraces two of the most important meetings, viz.: those of the Great Western and London and North Western; and the settlement of the account, expiring on Fri day, will also attract attention.

An interesting feature is the employment at the mines by the company of Illanuns and lladjows, men belonging to tribes that have hitherto been repre sented as the least civilized of any in the Eastern Archipelago. The company's agent reports that ho finds these men more industrious and physically stronger than any other class of native labourers. The statements recently made relative to the alleged adoption of the truck system by the company's ser vants at Labuan were adverted to, and unequivocally refuted by the chairman. An analysis of the railway traffic returns of the United Kingdom for the last week, published by .Thur»al, shows the total receipts on 6,185 miles to be 316,649/., or 56/. per mile per week. In the corresponding week of 1850, 291100/. was re ceived on 3,907 miles, equal to 49!. per mile per week. There is thus an increase of 53,5191., or 18.26 per cent. in the aggregate amount received, an in crease in the mileage of 278 miles, or 4.71 per cent., and an increase of 71. in the amount•:received per mile per week. The Railway Times estimates the total traffic of the United Kingdom, returned since the commence ment of the present half-year, at 1,597,1651., which, on 6,141 miles, gives an average of 2t.01/. ls. 7'd. per mile. In the corresponding period of 18.i0, the receipts on 5,107 miles were 1,328,541/., or 233/. 4s. per mile. This shows a balance in favour of the present year to the extent of 26/. 17s. 73d. per mile.

IM 1 4 i Sip Was 6 per' At eleven o'clock the accused was brought in. The reading of letters written by or to the accused, which were seized in the Post-office, wan then continued. The letters were not of much importance. Some of them were from Delescluee, the exile, in London, and referred to the Voir du Proacrit ; others from different persona, in various places, to Gent and others, described the state of the coa spiracy; others requested gunpowder and bullets. The revelations made by a man named Lombard, one of the conspirators, to an examining magistrate, ware next read, and attracted great attention. They Mika that he had been made a member of the smut so ciety called the Nouvelle Montagne, at Maresinsa, a branch of the general conspiracy of Gent, and that he had been appointed a chief of section with ten, and subse queatly seventeen men under his orders. His functions were to collect the contribution of 30 centimes a month from each member, and place the amount in the hands of the treasurer of the society. The money was chiefly employed in sending delegates from place to place, with - the letters which were considered of too much importance to be con fided to the Post-office. Delegates were occasionally sent to Paris and London. The letters scat through the Post-office were written in commercial style,and app.'. rently referred only to commercial affairs. be seamhers of the society were required to be armed, in erase to be ready to aid the insurrection, whenever it might take place, by all means in their power. Minute instructions were given toaU as to how thee were to act in the event of a rising. It was intcciled to take advantage of the agita• lion caused by the electoral law of May, Dia, to cause an insurrection. A congreas of delegates of fourteen de partments, comprised in the conspiracy, was held at Valence in May, 1850. It assembled at eleven o'clock at night, and remained in deliberation until four o'clock in the morning. Each delegate stated the force in his department ; the places in which the insurrection was certain to succeed ; and those in which it was likely to fail. After this had been dune, the plan of campaign was settled, and a chief of the insurrection was nominated. Minutes of the deliberations were drawn up, and two copies given to each delegate, but the name of the chief was left blank in them. Gent pre sided at this congress, and he caused the sections of the Montagne at Valence to keep themselves en permanence, whilst it was in deliberation. Ile had also men stationed at intervals on the watch to give warning of the approach of anyone. The insurrection was to have taken place simultane ously in fourteen departments; the signal for it was to he given by the directing committee at London to the committee of resistance at Paris, which was to transmit it to Gent. An attempt was to be made to seize Marseilles; in the event of its failine, the railway . was to be broken up, and the works of the telegraph were to be destroyed. The fifteen departments of the east were to rise in insurrection imme diately after the rising of the southern departments and the insurrection was afterwards to spread all over France. A national convention was to assemble at Lyons, and the scaffold was to be erected. Committees of public safety were also to he organised in each commune. Meetings similar to that at Valence were held on different occasions in towns in the south, but none were so important as that had been. One of these meetings at Avignon was to have been attended by the reprreentative Lagrange. The name which the conspirators of Lyons gave to the association was not that of the Nouvelle Montagne—it was the Invisiblex. The motives which prevented the insurrection from break ing out in May were not known to him ; the rising, however, WAS put off to the 13th of August, then to the 27th, arid the meeting of the National Assembly. But in the meantime Gent was arrested, and the arrest of other of the principal conspirators followed. The society of the Nouvelle Montagne was first formed in l'aris in March, 1848, by Ledru Rollin, BurN:s, and Blanqui. At first, to keep the direction of the democratic party in their own hands, they only received few persons, but afterwards established branches in the department of the Seine, at Marseilles. Lyons, and other laces. Gent was the correspondent Of the committee of Loudon and Paris, and on that account he was considered the chief of the conspiracy in the southern departments, though in point of fart he was not higher in rank than any chief of a department. The passwords and signs of the society were changed from time to time ; in some months the words were—" Universal suffrage—llepublic—Lyons" —in another " Sign—Neutre—Lyons"—in another "Atten tion—Courage—Macon ; " and once it WAS "Home is in chain., and we must de liver it." At one time it was de sired nt Marseilles so to re-organise the society as to have a hundred men under the command of a captain and other officers; but the design had to be abandoned because the men refused to turn out in arms, except under command of a chief whom they knew and who generally belonged to their corporation. The consequence of this was that whilst some companies consisted of 200 men, others had only 30. At the end of last year there were 1,3.30 men at Marseilles belonging to the Nouvelle Montague, and they were divided into fourteen companies. Every candi date for admission to the society had to be presented by a member ; he was taken to the place of meeting with his eyes bandaged. A number of questions were put to hint, especially if he were ready to turn out in arms, and do all that he should be ordered, even should it be assassination. 'l'o frighten him, he was then told that he was in, not a re publican, but a royalist, conspiracy,. and they would give him up to justice or 101 l hint if he diit not reveal the names of his chiefs. Übe pressed boldly through this proof, he wag told that he was required forth with to go and assassinate a general at the theatre, or to attempt to release Some prisoners. If his replies were con eidered favourable, he was declared worthy of admission. Ile was then made, with his right hand on his heart. and his left on a poignant, to take an oath in the name of the martyrs of liberty," to arm himself against political or religious tyranny—to labour fur the democratic and Facial republic —to give all the assistance in his power to a brother—to put to death a traitor, if the lot should fall on him—to give himself up to a most infamous death, in the event of his becoming a perjurer to his oath. Ile was made to kneel down, and the president gave hint three taps on the head with a poignard, and said, "In the name of the Montagne, I baptise thee a Montagnard." Then all the conspirators gathered round him, and presented their poignards at him, whilst the president, taking the bandage from his eyes, said, " Brother, if you are faithful to your oath there will always be ten thousand poignards ready to defend you ; if you are not faithful to it, you will find, no matter where you may hide yourself, some one to kill you." When a member was suspected of being in communication with the police, or even with making revelations from imprudence, it was resolved that he should be killed. A meeting of the conspirators was then called, at which he was not allowed to be present ; and the names of three of them were drawn be lot from a hat— one was to strike the fatal blow—the other two to exhort him to be courageous in the (emit of his displaying weak ness, or if need should be to strike themselves. The documents relative to Bouvir, Dupont, Montegid, Berthomieu, and three or four other accused were after wards read. The court then adjourned. The spectators and others quietly dispersed, and the people outside made no demon stration.

F. Young, M.P., at an entertainment given to hint at Tynemouth, on Friday, said:—lle had felt somewhat ashamed as a shipowner that in the struggle tho agricul tural interest had been so long maintaining so little real sympathy had been manifested by their brethren in the mane ports. He had Men sorry that till now they had not recognised that the mode by which their adversaries had achieved their ill-omened and disastro ous success over all they cherished and held dear was by dividing and separating in terests—(hear)—bi cause, by taking anti destroying them in detail, they had ruined the whole, to teach each ruined in terest that it must unite with the rest, if it would retrieve its dimsti rv. mid regain what it had lost. That, however, be believed in hi. conscience. was over. ((•heering.) Be held this meeting as a public demtmstration that the shipping intend of this country was determined now to associate itaell in tie. closest bonds with the agricultural, not fur the support shone of its own peculiar and separate interest, but in the maintenance of that principle, the abandonment of which destroyed equally the navigation laws and the torn laws. Fro,m that roam that night he felt assured a voice would goo forth that would echo over the length and breadth of the land, and summon around the banner of a moderate and equal protection to every English interest against the foreigner a combination which should bid proud defianee to all the vaunting arrogance of their enemies, and should achieve from them that justice to which allusion had been matte, and which was all that they claimed, which was what tle y would resolutely donated, and which they would ahort:s have. Therefore did they allow him to feel this pleas ing assOtrance, that they would uuite themselves with the agri culturists, with the colonists, with the manufacturers, with all who were oppressed by this cruel and impoverishing fps too, that they would unite themselves firmly together in one common trotherhomi, which would then Lid defiance to all their enemies. (. Yes," and applause.) Thus united, they to elated interminable war against those doctrin es and that systi in which had falsely animated to itself the title of free trade, to which it had no claim whatever. (Bunts of applause.) The British agriculturist was prevented by law from cultivating his land as he himself felt to be most consistent with his own interests. lie was impeded by MAN lations refusing to allow him to grow tobacco on his laud. It tr.,:lit be said this was a trumpery complaint, and that the agriculturist would not grow it if allowed. But in that case where was the necessity for the restriction ? Hear," and applause.) The produce of his soil was further harrassed by restr etions, as in the case of malt and hops, and he was impeded in his purmita, because it was alleged the safety el the revenue required that he should be thus harrassed, restricted, and impeded. (Hear.) But to have free trade they ought to be released from all these, Oh' but revenue eemaitlerations would not allow them to he released ; and therefore revenue considerations would not allow them to have free trade in agriculture. (Loud applause.) Pass to the colonies. The colonist told diem, and not only the colonist. but. singular enough, a recent series of government re. ports, from all the West India colonies, bore testimony that sugar could not be cultivated in those colonies by fres as cheaply as it could by slave labour. Yet why not allow them to employ slave labour as well as their competitors? They called it free trade and let in the competition of slave grown sugars. and vet put this restriction upon the labour of lithe colonies, for the sake of what?—(humanity.) (Loud cries of Hear.") Did he question the propriety of this ? God forbid! Let humanity have its swing—let cheapness go to the dogs. (Cheers.) But let them roes knowledge that humanity was not consistent with bee trade, and tint they could not have both. lie gave, aa a third illustration, their own navigation laws. They were not allowed to manage their ships as they pleased. (Hear.) The principle of interference ran through all the marine acts, and restrictions were placed in their way in all their movements. (lieuewed criesof " Hear," andapplause.) The manning question stood prominently forward. He had proved over and over again that while the ships of some counties which were placed in direct competition with theirs, and which loaded alongside their own shiandps, THE BISHOP or GURIIA3I has given 3i 0/. to wards the erection of a church at Pantasa.

INCENDIARY FIRE AT ILATCLIFFE.—On Wednes day afternoon a serious fire, the work of incendiaries, broke out in a stack-yard on Leys farm, Ratcliffe, the pro perty of Mr. Joseph Burgess, farmer, of Rohm: Pierrepout. About twenty minutes to five a lad. named John Spencer, the bird-starer, saw two men, apparently about the age of 25, running very hard in a direction from Mr. Burgess's stack-yard, from which they were then nearly a hundred yards distant. Immediately after he saw one side of a bean stack in flames, upon which he instantly raised an alarm. A servant was without delay despatched on horseback for assistance to Nottingham, from whence engines were speedily forwarded, and the fire was entirely extinguished at two o'clock. The clover stack, which was the produce of 28 acres of land, and contained nearly 60 tons, was al . which 1-^;-- notednaVi - by - men the ;CMavan. maiitassance a.. 1 wages -- did eed one-half of what they paid, yet the law said most entirely destroyed, the remains of s., ... being so much they should on no consideration whatever employ these men, damaged as to be quite useless.

XL EFFECT:: OF LOW RAILWAY FARES.—Thc low fares at which the Midland and Great Northern railways are conveying passengers to London, have stimulated the curiosity of the humbler classes to visit the Exhibition in a very extraordinary degree. A trip to London and tuck for ss. is what no one had dreamed of seeing. Tens of thousands have gone from the West Riding within the last two or three weeks; and not only have persons gone who possessed the pecuniary means, but great numbers have raised the means by pawning watches, blankets, and other articles. We bear that the pawnbrokers of York and many other towns in the country are full of pledged articles. — Leeds Mercury. HOLYHEAD llAnnoun.—The works for the filling up and formation of the new breakwater in the harbour at Holyhead are steadily progressing. A large number of men are regularly employed, and the stones and material are conveyed from the quarry to the breakwater by locomotive power, which runs along the staging. The new wharf commenced on the western side of the harbour, for the ac cemmodation of the Irish cattle traffic, has been abandoned, owing to the impracticability of making • deep ch annel from the entrance of the inner harbour up to the proposed wharf, in consequence of the hard and rocky ground. The eastern side of the harbour is now spoken of: a wharf erected there would be in close proximity to the railway station, and in every way convenient. .1:5 I Dt. J shams 11',, Do. Fifths 11,1 Do.

Messrs. Pattenden and Smith report that the accounts from the plantations continue to come unfavourable; ver min and honey dew in many places continue to increase' the last dry east winds have much injured the bine and burr, end name some favourable change shortly takes place the crop must be very small, Duty, 8.5,000 i. to 90,0001. Market very firm. Two o'CLocx. The market for the home funds remains quiet, with only a routine business offering, and prices have been steadily supported, at Saturday's range. Consols are quoted 961 to 1, bath tar money and to-morrow. The arrangements for the monthly settlement of the account are in progress, but do not attract any large share of attention, the busi ness during this period having been upon a scale the reverse of extensive. The official list reports business as follows Three per Cent. Consols, 90, ; ditto, for account, 961, ; Three per Cent. Reduced, 971, ;. New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents.. 99, 981, 99. Annuities of 30 years, expiring in 1859, 71.. Exchequer Bills remain steady, at 465. to 19s. premium, without particular movement; and India Bonds, 545. to 575. prem. In the furcign stock market there is no extensive movement, though Mexican and Spanish have at tracted a few operations, Spanish Actives arc tirm, and mark 21. To-day's advices from Madrid notice the publication in the official G«:ctle, of the law relative to the public debt, as sanctioned by the Queen. Mexican Bonds cannot be said to show any rally, the price having ranged between 301 and 301. The accounts from the city of Mexico must be regarded as decidedly unfavourable to the bondholders, as showing the melancholy position to which the finances of the country have arrived, and from which the ministry, by , means of its recent financial measures, seems to be desperately struggling to extricate itself. Bargains are reported to-day as follows: Brazilian Old Five per Cents., 92; ditto, New, 1843, 89. Danish Three per Cents., 1825, 78. Austrian Five per Cents., 83; ex change, It) guilders per X. Dutch Two-und-a-Half per Cents., t,O; ditto Four per Cent. Certifs., 931, 1. Mexican Bonds, 30 1 ,, 1, 1. Peruvian Five per Cents., 1819, 901. Russian Five per Cents., 115, ; ditto Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 102. Sardinian Scrip, par. Spanish Active Five per Cents., 201, 21; ditto, Three per Cents., 381. By the Asia, from New York, we have received a further import of specie of 124,300/. The shipments of specie were continuing on an undiminished scale, and amounted since the Ist January from New York to no less than 24,450,00 dollars. The exchange. however, luau experienced a sensible decline, and well-informed parties at New York were inclined to the belief that the shipments may soon full off: SATURDAY EVENING. Letters received this morning from well informed quarters at Madrid, on the subject of the settlement of the debt, would tend to afford some hopes that the . final result of the question may be more favourable to the bondholders, and more in consonance with the dictates of justice than has been gent rally antici pated. The exertions of Lord Howden to procure the full capitalization of the coupons are understood • to have been unremitting, and certainly deserve the gratitude of the bondholders. Although the idea of any further money grant receives nut the least encouragement, an assurance is understood to have I been given that the terms of the agreement will be adhered to by the Spanish government as favourably as possible to the bondholders, and some parties go even so fur as to entertain strong hope.; that an im proved condition of Spanish finance would not fail to benefit the bondholders, even after the definite closing of the present agreement. The exertions of Col. Sir Henry Bayly, Mr. Tusker, Mr. Henderson, and the other gentlemen who have taken a promi nent part in endeavouring to obtain full terms for the coupon holders as for the other classes of the Spanish creditors, are regarded as equally judicious and beneficial to the cause, by those best able to ap predate them. The discount market cannot be termed easier this week, neither have the rates become more stringent. Good paper cannot be discounted under 3to 3 per cent., the rate "on call" remaining at 21. Some demand for money on the part of the country bankers is spoken of, which may be fairly attributed to the increased movement noticed in some branches of trade, combined with the demand for agricultural operations usual at this season of the year. On the continent rates of discount continue to rule easy, but the money market is decidedly tighter at New York. The Bank of England returns, published this morning, present scarcely . any tiature out of the usual course, though the increase in the bullion, showing itself so soon atter the turmination of the dividend payments, must he noted as very satisfac tory. The contraction of the circulation is customary at this period, and is partly attributable to the increase in the payments into the Bank on account of the govermiceit. The bullion markets at home and abroad, as before noted, remain in a quiescent state. The present quotations of the market are thus reported by Messrs. Sharps and Wilkins: Bar gold, 31. 17s. ttd. per ounce standard; American gold Iles, V. 16s. 3d. per ounce ; bar silver, without. gol , ss. Old. per ounce standard ; bar silver, containing gold (all gold above five grains in the pound to be puid ter), ss. I ld. per ounce; Mexican and South American dollars, 4s. 11; per ounce ; United States dollars, 4s. I ld. per ounce; quicksilver in bond, 3s. 4d. per The imports of bullion this week have been as follows :—lty the Canada, from New York, 1145,090 dots.; by the Montrose Peninsular and Oriental steamer, 3,1701. (of which KOO/. was from Gibraltar, 1,970/. from Lisbon, and 40)1. from (Oporto); by the Tagus I'cninsular and Oriental steamer, 3001. from Gibraltar ; by the Franklin, from New York, 110,000 dole. (besides 860,000 dole. for Havre); and by the Trent, West Indian and Mexican steamer, 1,240,939 dots. The total amount of these imports is about 322,000/. The total amount of the precious metals exported direct from London during the week ending Thurs day last, we learn from official sources, was as fol lows :—Silver bars : To Dunkirk, 7,500 ounces; to , . Hamburg, 12,000 ounces ; to Boulogne, 2,030 ounces; to Rotterdam 107,300 ounces. Silver coin : To Dunkirk, 75,000 ounces; to Belgium, 214,000 ounces; to Boulogne, 18,132 ounces; to Rotterdam, 91,000 ounces. Gold dust: To Havre, 76 ounces. Oold coin : To Dunkirk, 3,730 ounces ; to Belgium, 6,370 ounces; to the Mauritius, 1,($10 ounces; to ham burg, 900 ounces. Specie to the Mauritius, 7,000/. The tital amount of these exports is 12,096 ounces of gold and 311,200 ounces of silver, besides 7,0001., the aggregate value being nearly 140,000/. Besides the exports from London, the Clyde took out 3,000/. for the West Indies, and the Peninsular and Oriental steamer Madrid, 1,500/. for Spain and Portugal, both from Southampton. The third annual meetin", of the Eastern Archipe lago Company was held this day, when the report was unanimously adopted, and the retiring directors were re-elected. The operations of the company have been as yet limited to the working of the crown coal mines at Labuan, and to the establish ment there of a colliery capable of furnishing sup plies of coal to the steam vessels of all nations navi gating the eastern seas; and the prospects of the undertaking so far are stated to be highly promising. The excellent quality of the Labuan coal for gene rating steam quickly has been fully demonstrated after repeated trials by her Majesty's and other steam vessels, and highly satisfactory reports on this im portant point have been addressed to the Directors by the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navi gation Company. Coal is at present supplied to this company at Singapore at 30s. 9d. per ton, and the company 'have notified their readiness to enter into more extensive contracts on the same terms as those for which the best English coal can be laid down at Singapore, a fact which speaks highly for the quality of the article. The quantity of coal raised by the company to the Ist May, 18.51, amounts to 3,829 tons ; the stock in store at that date was 1,800 tons, and 2,2861. 16s. 4d. had been received for coal up to the same period.

The supply of English Wheat at market this morning, by land-carnage samples from Essex and Kent, was smog; nevertheless, a reduction of Is. per qr. had to be submitted to before much progress could be made in sales. One or two parcels of new Essex Wheat appeared at market, quality not tine. In foreign Wheat there was wry little business transacted, although holders would have accepted rather less money for parcels on hoard ship. Earley barely sold so well as last week. Oats of home-growth supported their value, being scarce ; but foreign being plentiful, were easily purchased ut the decline of Cal. per qr. noted on Friday last. Beans and Peas were a dull sale, and rather cheaper. BRITISH IThilliap per Qr. Wascr,a.rrz &arid . - ..red 37 to 39 to 41... white, 4o to 42 to 43 Nolfolk and Suffolk-.

SMITHFIELD MAItKET.—THIS DAY. The supply of Beasts is very large; it exceeds the de mand, notwithstanding this is con‘iderable. On the ave rage we do not notice much decrease in price, although middling descriptions arc somewhat lower. fhe number of Sheep and Lambs is also large, but the majority aro of in ' ferior quality,conscquently choice descriptions arc readily dil -1 posed of at fully late rates—indeed a fair clearance is effected of all kinds. Trade is dull for Calves, and it is difficult to maintain Friday's quotations. From Germany and liolland there are 1,06(1 Beasts, 5,200 Sheep, 245 Calves, and 65 1 figs; Spain, 700 Sheep - Scotland, 100 Beasts ; 100 front 1 Norfolk and Suffolk ; 2,500 from the Northern and Midland Counties ; 30 from France, and 20 Calves.
