Aa there was a settlement on the Stock Exchange during the week, if allowance be made for this circumstanoe. it follows that the ordinary commercial clearings have maintained an average. Tho weekly return of the Bank of France shows the following changes (the exchange being takes at 26fr. to the pound) : Coin and bul l ion Bills discounted Decrease 1,300,000 Notes in simulation lnman 762,000 Private deposits Treasury balsam Decrease 1,300,000 Advances The farther large falling off in the disoounts indicates a continuance of stagnation and distrust in the trade of France, which is lamentable, seeing the continuous additions to the stook of bullion. The Bank, by the present addition, holds no lees than 32,672,000/._ The return of the Bank of England for the week ending Wedneeday, tient 2, compared with that ach for the previous weal, shows the following issue i2L 634,729,565 Increase IMAM Ow:stake active Pnbiiedaposits 3,224,416 Increase 296.005 Other deposits 19,677,730 Decrease 261,109 Government securities in Other i ri - 13,790,131 No change. seentses in bank ing department Coin and bullion in both departments 20,846,663 Increase 72.661 Seven day and other bills 663,027 Increase 60,024 The Rent ..- Note. in rescue 10,422,460 Decrease 2:115,266 Total reserve (notes & coin) in tanking dekiartment 11,539,648 Decrease 278.923 This return indicates an improvement in the demand for money from the falling off in the private deposits, and tho increase in the private securities, which will account for the variations in the circulation and in the reserve. The addition to the bullion is less than the amount reported to have been sent into the Bank according to the daily accounts. The difference probably arises from additions to the coin circulation, owing to harvest and other temporary demands. Only an inconsiderable sum has been added to the publio deposits, so that they remain at an unusually low point for the period of the quarter. The rest is returned at 3,611,4371. This includes two days profits beyond those made up to the end of the half-year on Monday night. As a dividend of 4 per cent for the past six months will require 606,2141., it is probable that this division will be declared at the approaching meeting of the Court of Proprietors. rNO!.AIiD.

This morning an inquest was held by Mr. John Humphreys, the Middlesex coroner, at the Bull Tavern, St. Luke's. respecting the death of Police-constable Cloy, aged 32 years, who died a short timeagounderratherstrangemr enmstances. It was clear from the evidence do ceased was a drinking min, and was under the iutiueuce of liquor shortly before his sudden death, which many persons thought arose from falls. On the other hand, the de ceased himself stated to a police-sergeant that he had been assaulted. Dr. John F. Rogers deposed that last Saturday morning he was sent for and found the deceased suffering from ffuFion on the brain and partially insensible, his left arm being twitched. On Sunday he became sensible, and said, one has assaulted me; I was taken with a Fiddiness in my head and I fell backwards." Ile post mortem examination proved that the skull was tiactinect for six inches. The liver was enlarged by drink. Death might have arisen from natural causes ; but after the evidence be thought it was caused by injuries. The inquiry was adjourned. 711 E CABMEN'S STRIKE.--/THIS 1).11-.) At a meeting of the Amalgamated Hackney Car riage Proprietors' Association, held to-day at the offices, the following resolution was unanimously adopted:— " That, as the railway companies still deny the nght of all hackney carriages to enter their stations to bring away fares we, the non-privileged proprietors and drivers, refuse to enter the stations to take there any fare what ever ; and we hereby pledge ourselves to withdraw our cabs from the stands on Saturday morning, Sep tember 3, and to keep them so withdrawn every day afterwards (subject only to a bare compliance with the requirements of the act) until the railway companies shall have thrown open their stations to all cabs subject to proper regulations." An immense meeting of drivers was held this morning at the Orange Tree, Artillery-row, Westminster. Resolutions in favour of a complete strike Were passed. At midnight the cab drivers met at Bones-yard, Earl-street, Edgware road, and continued deliberating until 3 o clock. Iter,olutions in favour of a strike were plowed. ASI aggre gate meeting of the trade is about to be held on Primrose hill. An excursion train having left King's-eroas this morning, almost all the excursionists had to carry their luggage, or get it earned, to the terminus. The utmost unanimity exists between the unprivileged masters and men, and there can Le little doubt that to-morrow Loudon will be cublees.

The tenants here have been in some diffi culty of late, not from any apprehension of their land lord's interfereitoo with their votes, but in consequence of the decided part taken by his lordship's agent in the sup port of the conservative candidate. The agent, especially where the landlord is a good one, is often mom formidable than he. All fears, however, have been completely set at rest by the circulation of the following letter : " A report having reached Lord Lansdowne that he was believed by some of his tenantry to be desirous of influencing their votes at the coming election of a member of parliament for Chippenham, he takes this op pionzrtwu.:3 of informing all Mader* on whom he may be su to have any influence, that far from having this , he is anxious to avoid exerting any such influence over them, and truant that in their choice of a candidate they will be guided by their own judgment alone.— August 26, 1865." Now for the contrast. A part of the village is, as said above, only rented by Lord Lansdowne, and may pass over at Michaelmas into other hands. The agent for the reversioner is canvassing for the conservatives. On the flame day that this letter reached the tenants from their present liberal landlord the agent for their future landlord celled to canvass, and presented the option—" Vote for us. How would you like to bo turned out of your house ?" SHIPPING IXTELLIGENCIL-(THIS DAT.) Lorioon, Sept. 4.—Wind at noon 8., light brew, and very fine.

BARNET CArrLE Dar.)—This morning the fair was opened with a large supply of stock from various counties. BUFillebB was commenced among breeders and dealers, and advanced prices obtained. The home-fair extends over a large scope of ground, and is studded with a miscellaneous show of animals. There are very large droves of Welsh ponies and Irish horses, and an active sale is made. The great pleasure fair is open, and will be continued throe days. The horse tacos are fixed for Monday. A GOODS TRAIN ON FIBE.—On Wednesday afternoon, as the Great Western goods train, which is due at Patrictoft from Cheeter at 3.20, approached the former station, it was seen to be on fire. (In arriving at Petri emit it was discovered that three wagons, two of which were loaded with straw, and a third with woollen shirtings, bottles of soda water, and other goals, wore enveloped in Hamm. These waggons were next to the engine, and were quickly unecuph-d from the. rest, and taken away. The Nile of Bridgwater's canal runs close by the station, and underneath the line. The burning waggons were drawn up to this spot, and Meters. Leigh's tire-engine having arrived, a copious supply of water was poured on the flames, which, however, had got such a hold, that they were not extinguished before the whole of the straw was reduced to ashes, the shiitings destroyed, and the soda-water had all "popped" off, like so many pistol shots. Ihe waggons were also very much damaged. The fire was caused by sparks from the etigine.--lbotehretes -I.lrominer. GUN ACtIDENT.—About 10 o'clock on Tuesday morning last a party of friends, with Mr. Hooper, of Littleton House, Weet Lavington, started from that gen tleman's house, for a day's shootang. They had not gone about 400 yards before a covey of birds got up, which the party drove into a strip of potatoes ; on their rising the ncond time, the birds Hew all around the shooters, one of them flying behind young Mr. Hooper, who,. with out noticing that his father was not to line with the party, fired, and unfortunately sent the greater part of the charge into his father's kg. 311 x. Hooper was at the time standing under a hedge about 30 yards off, and hie clothes being somewhat of the same colour, presented his eon from so easily distinguish ing him as he might otherwise have done. At first it was thought that the shot had had a fatal effect, as Mr. Hooper fell to the ground, and was obliged to be carried home. But we are glad to hear that there is every prospect of his recovery. About 20 shots entered his leg, from his thigh downwards, one going through his ear, and another through the boot into his foot. A few of the shots have been extracted, but the greater part of them it is impossi ble to get at. Had the shots taken effect higher up, they would in all probability have punctured the bowels, and led to a fatal result. —.Derius gazette. ARRIVAL OF ANoTHER TEA-flair.---The steam ship Agamemnon has arrived with new teas from Hankow and Hong Kong, having left the latter port on the 30th of June, making the voyage, including coaling, in sixty- A ve days. This, compared with the clippers , shows that had they sailed together the new teas would have been in this market nearly a month sooner. The Agamemnon is one of a line of six steamers, owned by Mr. F&lt, now running regularly between Liverpool and China.

COMMERCIAL AND MARKETS MARK-LANE.-(11118 DAY.) Only moderate supplies of English wheat were on sale this morning, but the quality of the produce was excel lent. The trade on the whole ruled firm, at the recent improvement in value. There was a good chow of foreign wheat on the stands. in which the transactions were on a moderate scale, at late rates. Floating cargoes of wheat were rather deerer. Most other descriptions of produce afloat were steady in . value. With foreign barley the market was well supplied, but scantily with home-grown produce. Most kinds were in fair request, at full prices. Malt moved off slowly on former terms. There was an improved demand for oats, at steadier rates. --- Beane were firm, on former terms. Peas changed hands quietly, but at full prices. Flour commanded more attention, at previous quota tions. Liureed and rape.eed sold slowly. Agricultural seeds met a lair bale. Cakes were dull.

Having landed some of her passengers she pro ceeded for Liverpool. The alleged ease of libel against the Times and Telegraph, on the information of Mr. Bewicke, of Threep wood-hall, Northumberland, again came before Alder man Hale, at Guildhall, yesterday. An additional cause of complaint against the last-mentioned paper was the publication of a leading article commenting on the pro ceedings at the trial. The notes taken by Mr. Merck.le's reporter were handed to the magistrate, who will decide to-morrow whether the discrepancy between them and the statements in the newspapers is sufficiently wide to justify him in issuing the summonses which have been applied for. IMPRIsONMENT FOR STY-ALIN() AN APPLE.—it the Salisbury Petty Sessions, on Tuesday last, before VlA count Folkestone, General Bucklz, ( E. Hinzman, Esq.. Major Heathcote, A. Ferryman, ~ J. Go ff , jun., Eeq., James Homey. Esq., W. Pinckney, sq., and G. M. Fort, George (lark, of Salisbury, was charged with striding an apple, value a halfpenny, the property of Mr. Edward Waters, of Stratford. Police-constable Crook, who was watching . Mr. Waters' orchard, saw the defendant open a gate, go in, and pick up one apple. A companion, who was keeping watch outside, raised an alarm, and the defen dant went away.
