MONEY MARKET. rONDAT The intelligence received this morning from Paris of a sudden fall of upwards of 1 per cent. in the Routes at the dose of the Bourse on Saturday, made a slight impression on the English funds, and caused a little hesitation at the commencement of business on the Sock Exchange. Consols both for money and account opeeei at 921 to 1. The first operations in them were marked at 921; they were then done for a short time only at 1 ; they then rallied, and were done again at 921, from which they 'lover varied to the close. They were offi cially marked at the close, 921 to 1, both for money and &cunt. The Three per Conte. Reduced were done at 921, and t. Tali Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. at 931 and 931. The market was altogether void of animation, and the amount of business done was not extensive. Exchequer Bale have not varird their quotations ; they were done at 31e. and 48s. premium. Lou Annul: s, sth January, 1880, realised 9, 8 13-1 6 , and 9; ditto, 30 years, bib October, 1839, 81. Bank Stock was marked at 1991 and 200. India Buds at 81s. and 84s. premium. • There was rather more activity in the foreign stock market, and in some descriptions an advance took place. Danish Five per Cents. ' Diech Two and-a-Half per Cents., Russian, and Spanish, were all negotiated at higher rates. Mexican and Buenas Ayres Bonds underwent little variation. The limi ness of the day is comprised in the following official returns: Barnum Ayres at 51 for mousy, and at 514, 52, and 61 foreneoulL Danish Five per Cent. Buds, 1849, at 99 and 98.

Dutch Two•and a-Half per Cents. at 52 and ; ditto Four per Cent. Certificates at 811 and 1. The advice§ from Amsterdam report a deal of bu siness having been due in Integrals acd the Four per Cents., at an advance, which left off severally on the Beene on Saturday—the Two-and-a-Half per Cents. at 52 7-16, the Four per Cents. at 80 9.16, Spanish Three per Cents., 271. From Frankfort this day's poet brings accounts of most descriptions of public securities having an up ward tendency, especially the Austrian Metaliques, which were very firm; the Five per Cents. at 77 money. The &deices received from Alexandria state that the continued scarcity of shipping prevented operations in experts. The following are the quotations for pro duce free on board :—Beans, Said, 16.. 2d. ' • Behnis, 14a. 44. • 2,500 ardebe old government had been sold on speculation at 13. r. 71 Wheat, new private Said, 194. 2d.; ditto Behnia, 17e. 43. Barley, private, 9s. 4d. A small lot of Shona linseed had realised 29a. 61. The stock on hand was about 3,000 srdebs. In flax there was scarcely anything doing. The arrival of the steamer witu accounts of our cotton market, had caused an advance in that staple, and the last quotations were, PAW() Cotton, 4.07 to 4.51. Large growers, 4.50 to 5.11. Choice lots, 5.40 to 5.70. Abut 17,000 centners had been disposed of. The rate of freight for cotton was a, with 5 pa- Cant. and gratuity. Flax, 31. 7s. 6d., with ditto. There were no freight-seeking veswls at Alexandria. The accounts from Barbadoes are much more satin factory, this year's crop of sugar having exceeded the yield of form. r years, and the seasonable weather encouraged the beat expectations for the next year's crop. There remained only about 3,000 hhds. sugar of this year's crop to be shipped ; about 30,000 hhde. had already been exported. The barque Milford, with a full cargo from Liverpool, had been wrecked on the Coblers Roar. The accounts from St. Kitts, St. Vincent, and Anti gas, all complain alike of the injury the drought has done is this year's craps in those islands. At St. Luria, the legislative council had passed the New Import Dudes Bill for a term of five years. At Antigua it was very severe, and live stock and cattle were perishing for want of water. In some districts water was selling at Bd. the buraL The crop of sugar in Trinidad bad been about an avenge, of which the greater part viz., about 22,000 hhds. and 8,000 bla.—had slready be en ex ported. In d. Porto Rico nearly the entire of this year's Inger mop had been got in. Second quality had realised 3 dole. to 31 dole., but business was not very active. The exeange on St. Thomas wu 6 to 7 per cent. premium, and on London 490 dole. per 1001. At St. Thomas the absence of foreign shipping had caused a dull market, and very little was doing is exchange in consequence. It was quoted on London sellers at 491 dots. per 1001. Letters from S.. Jago de Cuba state that no new tobacco bad yet been brought to market. The busi ness done in sugar at that port was not extensive. Muscovado.' were quoted at 21 dole. to 21 dole.; clayed assorted, two-thirds yellow, one-third white, at 31 doh. to 41 dolt. Little was doing in exchange. On leusdon it was quoted 491 40-100 dole. per 1001. Commercial advice, from Valparaiso report a con siderable degree of animation in the market during the month, and that a good business had been done in manufactures, particularly for Mexico and Salta, but he California the inquiry had almost entirely sub sided, and scarcely anything had been done in them for that part. A number of vessels bad arrived there, the greater part with emigrants hound for California. The rates of freight to San Francisco bad risen to 2.5 deli, and there was sufficient cargo to fill six to eight vessels waiting to be shipped for that port. The national vessels bad found tk• traffic to California so remunerative, that they were then much wanted to convey provision, to the north, and the govercment were recommended to employ in the meantime foreign bottoms in their stead. Wheat and flour were in good demand ; the latter at 6 dole. 2c. per sick of 2 quintals. The entire stock of wheat in port had already been bought up at 11 dole. to 12 dolt, destined for Calloreis. Discount was 1 ch ad o . nt os per month for fist - rite bills. Freights to ad, 31. 12s. Bd.; light freight, 61. Exchange on 46d. per current dollar for 90 days' sight. Hard dollen at 8 per osat. premium. The advises from Lima to the 13th June report the mast as hies well supplied with most descriptions of woollens. The exchange on Load= was , 2t per dollar tar 90 days' sight. Freights hem c to Enema% 31 17s. Bd. to 31.15 s The silver mines of Chili continued to yield a good supply of diver. Clold to the value of about 400,000 dole. had been chipped at Chagrin per Ammer for New York. The Erma of this afternoon gave a summary of the intelligence received hem the United States and Quads by the Niagara steamer at Liverpool, which erns is the merchant* . bands previous to the close of boshess on 'Change. The letters and papers by that opportunity have not yet been received for delivery. The Hamburg mail has not yet arrived. THIS DAT.

Tut news rieteived by the West Indian mail affords ao prospect of a speedy termination to the embroil ment of Jamaica affairs. The governor has dis-olved the Hone of Assembly. As the house desired him to do so he could not well refuse to comply with their request. If they were bent upon being dissolved they had it in their power to oblige him to dissolve them by persisting in their rdusal to transact business. But it is pretty c'ear that, when the majority of the house asked to be sent beck to their constituents, they saw their way, or believed they saw their way, to strengthen thenthely.s by an election. On the other baud, the supporters of the government declare that the country is not prepared for an election, which may fairly hs interpreted to mean that their own party is not prepared. Between the declarations of both parties, it seems pretty clear that government has not sought the dissolution, and that it is likely to lose orrength in the legislature by the new election. But, though there can be little doubt that the go vernmer t will be weaieened in the House of Assem bly, it is not so easy to see what will be the practical consequences of its loss of strength. The truth is, that both of the parties in the house are in a false po eition. The ostensible question at issue is the pro priety of reducing the public expenditure of the colony. And the extraordinary spectacle is presented to us of retrenchments zealously, and, we may even say, fiercely urged, by a party not previously charac terised by any remarkable love of economy, and of government supported in its resistance to these re trenchments by the party who have hitherto been the unflinching advocates of &reduced expenditure. To understand this anomalous position of affairs it will be necesary to look into the composition and relation, of the parties. The advocates of reduced expenditure are the representatives of the planters ; the supporters of government are the representatives of the lately emancipated class, and their few friends aming the whites in the time of slavery, principally missionary agents. The planters we believe to be per fectly sincere iutheirezpree.ed desire tor retrenchment ; the embarrassment' under which they have for years been labouring are a guarantee for their good faith. But they are animated by a strong vindictive feeling towards the home government, to whose measures they impute all their sufferirg, and, with tree West Indian pride and impetuosity, they rather take a pleasure in displeving this feeling. The party oppo sed to them have hitherto taken a more impartial and just view of the economical condition of the island ; they see that for much of their &streets government is in na way responsible; they see that the suffering parties have, in not a few instances, contributed to bring it down upon themselves. They are therefore disposed to promote economy by other arguments and incen tives. Personal feelings also come into play. A lively sense of old antagonism still prevails on bath sides. The triumph of the planter party would be a triumph over government, and consequently would weaken it. Their opponents have been accustomed to rely upon government as their protector from these men, and cannot help entertaining fears as to what might be the consequences of their getting the upper hand. The contest is, in fact, not purely a finaceal struggle; it is a trial of strength between government and its el-decant client., now freemen, on the one hand, and the planters on the other. And, as is uniformly the case when party becomes personal each side strains its principles and professions a little I to accommodate them to it. present position. This has always been the case hitherto, aid will pro trebly, as long as men are men, cantinue to be the case hereafter in political controversies. Men must aim at what they conceive to be right and just, with out scanning too curiously the sentiments and mo tives of their allies. But there is this further difficulty in Jamaica, that while the old liberals are, in order to strengthen the hands of government, playing fast and loose with their convictions, the planters do not appear to nee very distinctly what they would them selves he at. And what with the embarrassment of a party obstructing its own wishes, and the aimless efforts of a party which has no definite purpose, it is difficult to conceive what issue their strife can come to. There is much more of plosion and excitement in the contest than of practical aim. The financial question is fast merging into a constitutional question. The planter party call for responsible government, but have never satisfactorily explained what they mean by the phrase, or by what means they seek its attainment. They complain of the constitution of the legislative council, bat have never shown how it can be improved. Their antagonists, on the other band, naturally reluctant to present themselves in the light of opp 'cents to economical government and free institution', seek to shift the field of battle. They have got up an agitation against slavery by which they hope to di vide their antagonists, or at least divert them from their present pursuit. They have raised an outcry against what they call the encouragement of slavery by the home government and legislature, and are getting up public meetings and petitions for the more strict enforcement of the Spanish and Brazilian treaties. They are asking in other words for renewed and perpetuated protection to the sugars and other pro duce of the British tropical colonies, at least against the same articles when the growth of count ries in which slavery still exists. They have certainly succeeded in obtaining the countenance and concurrence of the planter party in this new agi tation; whether they will thereby succeed in divert ing them from the course they have lately been pursuing, and in modifying the results of the im pending elections, remains to be seen. The elections will not be completed before the end of this month. Meanwhile hints, by no means obscure, are thrown out that government sanctions the so-called anti slavery movement. This new strategy has removed the contest of par ties in Jamaica out of the sphere of those purely local questions which, according to all pound principles of colonial government, ought to be left exclu sively to the local residents. The question of restrictions span trade, whether on commercial, finan cial, or purely political pretexts, is a question for the decision of the imperial government. • The anti s/every agitation now in progress in Jamaica is meant to influence the determination of government on the relations to be maintained between this country sad the Brasile, and on the continuance or abandonment of the attempt to suppress the slave trade by force. Without attributing too much weight to the hints' , thrown out that government countenances the move ment, it will be well to keep them in mind, and to be prepared to meet any arguments that may be based on the Jamaica petitions when the questions wrerlg the African squadron and our intercourse ) n razil are raised again in the House of Commons next session._ _ The unsatisfactory state of public opinion and party relations indicated by the local disputes in Jamaica are incident to all countries which have institutions more or less popular, and are inevitable in a country where ea great a social revolution as the emancipation of fall one-half of the population from slavery has re cently occurred. It would present no difficulties to a government which had a plan of administration and sufficient energy of character to insist upon carrying it out. But the whole conduct of our colonial govern ment shows that it has neither. CATHIDRAL cities are popularly believed to be the hallowed seats of learning and of piety. The grosser and more exciting incidents of life are not supposed to disturb their tranquillity. Their inhabitants re- We, acoorditg to the theory, quietlyand calmly under the shade of their cathedral ; disturbed by no more exciting causes of emotion than the burst or the music from the choir or the chiming of the vesper-bell; apart from worldly strifes and cares; free from private and political animosities ; in youth instructed, in man hood guided. in old age comforted, consoled, and blessed by the wise and liarned men who are richly paid in hew places to promote the cause of reigion and the church. _ _ And yet we do hear sometimes of maters con nected with cathedral cities that give us eta-e to doubt how far this popular idea is consonant with the reality. Even the quietest if these places is occasionally brought under public observation by some incident that seems to militate against the general notion that they ere the ma's of learned repose and of political and private virtue. Peterborough and Ely, two of the most classical cathedral retirements in the kingdom, have each furnished of lase years their tale of scandal 'to the public gossip. The records of eosin intelli gence for the present circuit give us reason to suppose that Lichfield and Rochester, two other snug resorts' of deans and chapters, afford about as remarkable examples as can any where be found of the height to, which party spirit can be carried, and of the malevo lence and private hatred which it is possible for it to engender. At Lichfield, it seems, a late town clerk and a late Mayor were on adverse sides io politica. The Mayor's party turned the town clerk to the right about. In return for this compliment, the town-clerk brings an action assitst the Mayor to recover penalties for bribing a voter at oae of the municipal elections. THOMAS BAILEY was a labourer at Lichfield, with a wife end homily. "He had been in gaol several times. He was found guilty once of steeling bacon. got six months, and was well contented that ho did not get more. In 1840 he was committed for six months, not, as he believed for deserting his wife and family, but for being drunk. In 1841, he was again committed for a month for an indecent exposure of his person. Lei 1843, he was tried and acquitted on a charge of stealing stockings. He had been in the union several times, and so had his family." This was his owe aecoant of himself: the ace mat of a eit;zen of the cathedral city. Tne Mayor of Lichfield, in October, 1847, was sitting on the bench administering justice and punish ing offenders. THOMAS BAILEY was brought before him—not for the first time nor the second. He was charged "against the peace of oar Sovereign lady, the QUEEN, her crown and dignity," with being drunk in the public streets—for aught we know in the cathedral close itself. The Mayor fined Thomas BAILEY sixpence, and ordered him to pay the fine, I together with nine shillings costs, before the expire -1 Lion of a fortnight. Ere the fortnight had expired there occurred a great contest fir the election of common councilmen for the city of Lichfield. All the e:ty was excited. The very vergers, to say nothing of the dean and canons, were enlisted on one side or the other. In the midst of the contest the Mayor of Lichfield met " TOM BAILEY," whom he has fined for drunkenness, in the public market-place. No doubt he shook hands with him, as every " worthy candidate" does with his constituents on such occasions. " Tom BAILEY,' scratching his head, suggested to the mayor that he was in a little trouble • about that 'ere nine and sixpenee,• " and inquired of him, as he solemnly deposes, "if I goes and votes for your par ty, how will it be ? " To this, as " TOM BAILEY further swears, Mr. MAYOR replied, " Oh, yes, go direct, and I will see it all right." Oa this, Tom BAILEY went up and personated another voter of the same name, answering all the three questions as to identity and Qualification, and thereby going pretty far towards committing an act of perjury. At a later hour of the day, Mr. MAYOR met Tom BAILEY again, and fa miliarly inquired, " Tom, have you voted ?" to which Tom replied in the affirmative, and was assured that "that was right." A month or so afterwards, a warrant in doe course was issued against "TOM BAILEY," to arrest him for the 9e. O. The officer about to execute the process meets the MAYOR, and tells him what he is about. The MAYOR says that as BAILEY is now in work, it would be a pity to throw his family on the union by putting him in prison, and he charitably instructs the officer to tell Betimes wife to call on Mrs. MAYOR in the evening, and SOO what she can do for her. In the evening, Mrs. BAILEY accordingly goes to Mrs. MAYOR, and Mrs. MAYOR gives Mrs. BAILEY 10e. to keep her hus band out of gaol. Thereupon Mr. BAILEY repairs to Mr. Town Cl rk and informs him that the money was given as a bribe; and Mr. Town Clerk sues Mr. Mevon at Stafford for all the penalties thereby in curred. The jury believe that the money was given as an act of charity, and they instantly find a verdict for the defendant. The judge characterises the action as "most scandalous," and the jurors all say they quite concur in the opinion. Scandalous or nut, what, let us ask, are we to think of the private morality and public virtue of the city in which such scenes as this are permitted to be enacted? What a state of society is here represented; what a depth of social degradation does not the entire case uofo!ci ! We scarcely kuow which to admire most, " Tom," the thrice-convicted "citizen,"—the worthy mayor who is upon Each familiar terms with him, or the public minded town-clerk who brings the action to recover penalties. Delightful specimens they all are of cathe dral society. Fm thePrlaidivstone,wefacssliti of a case tr i ed onldconcludeß Saturda yohenster tobe ai even t worse than Lichfield. An action was brought against a Mr. WINCH, the mayor, to recover a penalty of 100!., for wilfuly neglecting and refusing to revise the list of burgesses entitled to vote at municipal elections. The city of Rochester, it seems, is divided between " Blues" and "Pinks." Party feeling runs so high that everything else is considered secondary to it. Public improvements are of no avail. Public baths and wash-houses, fur instance, would be of not the sligh•est use, for no Pink will bathe in the same bath with a Blue, nor wash his face in the same basin. Each party has his own side of the street, his own ooffee-hrmse and his own barber. S.rjeant Saes declares that no Blue would allow himself to be cored of cholera by a Pink doctor, and that no Pick would on any account consent to be purged by a Blue pill. Such being the state of parties, it appears that in 1847 flora was what was called a "Pink burgess roll," and of course the Pink burgesses elected a Pink =pr. The year following, however, there were expected to be a great many changes in the roll. Toe Blues had made numerous objections, and a vast num ber of new chime, and more than all they had brought down from London "the great revising agent, Mr. Stem," to set the register to rights and secure them a great victory. The Pink mayor was the presiding officer. It seems that most of the objections which were taken on both sides were frivolous, and it was proposed to withdraw them, in order to get at t he r e al business which was comprehended in the list of claims. When the time came, however, for considering the Blue objections, the Pinks refused to permit them to be withdrawn. One Pink declared that " he would never receive a courtesy from a Blue.' Another contends 4 that his credit was impugned, and that it was due to him that his dis puted qualification should 'be thoroughly examined. " The celebrated Mr. SMITS protested against all this. He said it was only done to avoid going into the real merits. He made several long speeches, " though," says one of the witnesses, ' not so long as those upon the other side;" and after his speeches he adjourned to the tavern over the way to wet his whistle, and also to concoct " a solemn protest against the course the court was pursuing," which protest he banded in yr hav e ito bt a de n y t :t t e i s t i htti E :ceoedn : n i: h areqed n e k v a uee o in . nn f ‘ tece P p o dt i ulh was i theket with due formality, but which the Pink Mayor refused altogether to receive. The Pink Mayor, indeed, seems to have been as thoroughly pink as his friends could wish. "He seemed," said one witness, " quite to enjoy it. He frequently burst out laugh ing, and seemed quite in hie glory all th e time." " The whole affair, ' deposed another witness, " was a continual scene of squabbling and wrangling in the court ; and I consider the Mayor on one or two coca haieonsdoesactednovet ry see r m ade to l • l l' oo ir onbes naid jet.;. era ßU ti yl o t n iemarea of te th tilny e g cl ti a bl i eese me P , dein an lak that the lists not being properly revised within the time specified by the Act, it became necessary to fall back upon the lists of the preceding year, which was all the party wanted. The Pink Mayor was acquitted by the jury of " wilfully and negligently rearing" to revise the I RAs. But we must say, that this trial gives us no very high opinion of the working of the Municipal Reform Act as regard s th e revision of the lists of voters. The defendant's counsel talked of "the Temple of Justice being desecrated by actions brought solely to gratify apolitical animosity."

This would not be attempted except ts, some sin'ster purpose. It is impossible to view it k any other light, and although I have accorded totbe cabinet high qualities as statesmen, and augured i ss a fur their career, it was in the assurszoe that they would lay aside the tricks of politicians, and sum the lofty position of patriots. Power, however, is corrupting, and the beat of men seem to change imsle its fascinations and reeponsibilities. Oar domestic news in g.neral is of but little in. portance to an ordinary English reader. The sildres of Mr. Calhoun to the southern states, in reply told:. Beaten'a speeches, attracts mach attention, and it is supposed it will have the effect to units them against the north on the questions which have so long divided them. For my part, however, I do not see how a tan gible opportunity for an outbreak cm occur. The question of slavery in the new territory is disposed of in all human probability by the people there. It is of no kind of c metquence whether the Wilmot proviso pass or not. Slavery cannot exist in California. We have another death to record among our note• bility, that of our late minister to !feinted, Hermann' Bleccker, at a ripe old age. He was a descendant of the founder of the Bleecker family in this state, and preserved many of its finest qualities. He was en educated, well read, gentlemanly man, of the legal profession, and a classical scholar. The one prevailing interest of the day is that which attaches to the progress of the cholera. However we may disguise the get, yet it is not to be denied that it makes a wide difference in our feelings. Although our official reports would at this moment induce us to believe that the epidemic was on the decline, those of the sextons tell a different stoey. Two huodnd people have been buried every day last week, at the rate of 73,000 a year, or of not quite one out of eves, seven inhabitants. This is worse than dec'mattoo. Four to one, however, among the deaths, occur amq the Irish and Germans, the most ignerans, dirty, aid reckless of our population. The Americans nee least, and this is to be attributed to their more cleanly habits, their easier circumstances. The Americus, who are the earliest victims are very apt to belong to a class of dare devils, careles and dissipated men, who undertake to enjuyths "largest liberty," and who neither fear "God not man." We have many such in all our large towns, and they have the air and wear the dress of mend fortune. Nothing, however, can penetrate the skalla of the Irish. A few days since a friend of mine, while visiting the outskirts of the city where these lowest of the Irish labourers congregate, asked woman near one of those cabins I have already de scribed to you, if there had been any cholera nem her. She replied in the affirmative, at the same time preparing a mess of uncooked cabbages and of other materials squally prohibited, for her husband's dinner. The gentleman remonstrated with her on her impru dence, but she replied her husband could not do with• out them. The meal was prepared and eaten, an the next day the men was dead. It is of no kind of use to talk to these people. At Valparaiso it was found that the emigrants to Califurnia had been excessive. All the tam of enterprise had emigrated. The government of Chili was ectually alarmed at the desertion of its youngest and meat promising citizens. Tae impree. sione made on the Americans at Valparaiso were these—that the few good and patriotic men were powerless against long-seated despotism, though wearing a republican garb ; that tho masses are too ignorant to read and appreciate what is said to them through books or newspapers; and that, finally, the native races will recover their supremacy under the influence of their unbearable wrongs. The l'resident of Chili is in favour of schools, and occasionally ap propriates by a decree a few hundred dollars per annum to their support in districts where there are none. Tnere are many at this moment in Chili, with a population of 12,000 inhabitants, where there is not one "schoolmaster abroad." No doubt, however, the presence of these American emigrants will have a powerful effect on the South American countries which they visit. This influence is, however, at first indirect. For example, the people of Valparano were areounded to see so many strangers in their city, one throng succeeding another. Who an these? "Hijcs del Norte." The moment them Hijcs landed, the whole town changed its aspect. The public walks, the hotels, the squires, the streets, and the theatre were filled with well-dressed young men (for the California garb is laid aside on these cc caaions), wearing the fashionable costume of the day. The police was charged not to meddle with them if it could be avoided. The consequence was, that so much mirth and hilarity were never before witnessed by the Chilians. In this spirit these gay Amercaas would form choruses and proceed at night to serenade the Senoritas. One set styled themselves the " pheene," and for sport (possibly to make a little money) appeared on the stage with dress coats, nets, white kid glove., pantaloons, and glazed boots, and sang glees, trier, quintetta, &c, to the delight of the Chilling. Yet these very men, most of them, ex pected to dig at the mines! The officers of the Asia man-of-war would not believe that these merry, well behaved, well-dressed men were American me• ehaMes, but such they were. The sudden irruption of these gay North Ameri cans has everywhere had its effect ou prices, which have in fact doubled in every port where they hare touched. The affairs of the United States in Chili have, how ever, been somewhat complicated by a curious clime stance in the private history of Col. Barton, oar minister to Chili. It appears that gentleman fell in love with a beautiful lady, named Isabella Astaber• saga, a member of the Homan catholic church ; the archbishop refused to sane'ion their marriage, be cause the minister would not renounce the protestant faith. The lady consented to be married by the American chaplain of the flagship Independence. The wedding was attended by all the diplomatic corps. by Commodore Shubriek and suite, and the wealth,' and fashionable residents of the capital. The arch bishop immediately addressed Mrs. Barton a letter, charging her with becoming the concubine of a disso lute foreigner, threatening her with the anathemas of the church. Col. Barton then appealed to the Minister of Foreign Affairs for the protection of the govern ment, but was informed that it could not be g ranted, because the archbishop was a member of the govern ment.
