CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. (THIS DAY.) The June session of the Central Criminal Court was .I'penes' this morning before the Right lion. the Lord dayor, the Recorder, Aldermen B,domons, If. P., and Phillips, Mr. Alderman and Sheriff I,bbise, Mr. Sheriff Lusk, the Under Sheriff% he. The tint edition of the calendar contains the DAMN of l($ prisoners, and the ores comprise one charge of murder and three of manslaughter. The Recorder baldly charged the grand jury, and said that although the calendar for the present session contained a rather larger number of prisoners than usual, the asses, with a few exceptions, were not of • very serious character, and were riot likely to present any difilcultiem when they came to consider them. There was one cam of wilful murder, in which an Italian was charged with killing a young man by stabbing him in the belly with a knife. The parties, it appeared, hail quarrelled in • pub lie-house, Led they fought together, and ten minutes after the combat had ceased, the prisoner rushed at the de reseed, and struck hun with his fist, and then stabbed him, and inflicted as injury upon him of which he died shortly afterwards. Is this case the only question the grand jury would have to consider was whether the offence of the pri soner emanated to the crime of wilful murder, or to that of manslaughter only, and, if the fatal injury had been in flicted at die time of the original struggle, they would probably, taking into consideration the fact that the pri soner was at the time under the excitement of • contest, and that his blood was heated, have felt themselves jus tified in rotunda( • bill for the lesser offence, but if the witnesses spoke truly when they stated that the struggle had ceased, and that ten minutes had elapsed before the prisoner committed the act ot violence upon the deceased, this would show an amount of deliberation that would render the cacaos is law one of wilful murder. There was a charge against one of the prisoners of having taken a girl under sixteen years of age from the custody of her parent, ; and with reference to this charge it was his duty to inform them that the fact of the young woman having been willing to accompany the prisoner did Dot make any difference in the character of the offence, as the intention of the statute was to preterit parents as well as their chil dren. The leaned Reeardar then referred to One or two other mess in the calendar, end concluded by disninsing the grand jury to the performance of their duties. Aortae Pest, 13, and Alfred Tilley, 15, were charged with feloniously Livonia' a piece of wood upon the South- Western Railway, with intent to obstruct the passing of the trains and also with the intent to endanger the safety of the presagers travelling upon th e railway.

No activity is observable in the mining market to-day, and prices are generally without alteration. The only transaction officially recorded in the Stock Exchange is in Tamar shares, which are marked 11. Sortridge Console, North Downs, Wheal Harriett, and West Caradon have also, however, changed hands. No business is reported in foreign and colonial descriptions, and prices are nominally quoted the same as on Saturday. The prospectus of the East Mona Mining Com pany (Limited) is in circulation. The estate, which is to be worked for copper, silver-lead, and other ores, is situated in Anglesey, and comprises about 120 acres. Some well known and rich setts are in the immediate neighbourhood. The property has been obtained on what are considered advantageous terms, the vendors taking shares to the extent of 2,0001., and having consented to wait for the re maining 1,500/. of the purchase money until ores of this value are extracted. The capital is fixed at 12,0001., in shares of 11. each. At Collscombe Mine meeting, on the Sth inst., the ac counts showed a debit balanoe of 8111. 17s. 4d. A call of 6s. per share was made.

From s parliamentary return issued this morn ing, it appears that between the 31st of December, 1836, and the 31st of December 1860, 896 inquests were hold in the eastern division of Middlesex, 491 on males and 406 on females. In the western division there were 1,683 inquest. ; 893 on males, sad 790 on females. In the alto and liberty of Westminster, during the same period 13b inquests were held on males and 141 on f ema l es ; sn city of London and the borough of Southwark, 132 on males, and 133 on females ; in the liberty of the Tower, two on males and one on a female ; in the duchy of Laces tar, 31 on males and 17 on females ; in the coanty of Kent, 53 on males and 55 on female* ; in the county of Surrey, 360 on males, 274 on females, and three inquests in which the sex was unknown. Within the metropolitan district the total number of inquests in the period amid was 3,901. The return from which we quote gives the per ticular parish in each eses, in most instances the age, and in every one the verdict. THE Erßivas:NTT MiseloN TO CENTRAL AFRICA. —Letters received from Bishop Mackenzie by the secretaries of the mission organised,to Central Africa under the auspices of the Universities of Oxford, Cambridge. Dur- ham, and Dublin, state that the reverend prelate had com menced an expedition up the Rovouma on the advioe of Dr. Livingstone, whom he had met. The bishop proposed in the Bret instance to go up the Shire, but yie lde d to Dr. Liviaptcmee more experienced representations. The mis sies petty found Dr. lavumetone and his companions in good budth. Tice annual banquet of the Nulli Secundus Club was held at the Clarendon on Saturday last. The follow ing officers and gentlemen were present Major-Generals Lord F. Paulet, CB., Hon. A. Upton, and Hon.

THZ BISHOP OF DIJBHAII IND 818 SON-IN-LAW. —We are happy to announce that the Bishop of Durham's son-in-law, and domestic chaplain, the Rev. E. Cheese, has just completed the arrangements for tbe endow ment, out of his own rectory, of the district chapelry of Sadberge, in Houghton-le•Skerne. In the year 1356 the Ecclesiastical Commissioners obtained an order in council, which severed Solberge from the rectory of Houghton ; but as no endowment could be made without the consent of the late rector, Dr. Bandinel, it remained a deed letter, and no incumbent wee ap pointed by the Bishop of Manchester, in whom the patron age was vested. Now this needful want has been supplied by the new rector. We have reason to know that one of Mr. Cheeee's first tete on being appointed to Houghton was to apply to the Ecclesiastical Commissioners for leave to give up the tithes of Sadherge end another township in his pariah, so as to provide 335/. 18.. id. for the incumbent of Sadbergs, whoever be might be. This arrangement has just been completed, and it has been accompanied by a most graceful act on the part of Lord Pabnerstoo. His lordship finding that the Bishop of Manchester had allowed his patronage to lapse, at once yielded to the urgent solicitation of the Bishop of Durham, and appointed, in the name of the crown, to the newly-endowed thapelry the Her. David Piper, who had been for 35 yeam the underpaid and laborious curate of the late con-re s ident pluralist rector, Dr. Bandinel—iforaing Advertiser. THZ DIATH BY LIGHTNING AT HOLLOWAY —On Saturday an inquest was held before Mr. G. ft Brent, deputy-coroner for West Middlesex, at the Old Cock Tavern, Highbury, on the body of Daniel Johns, • car pester, aged 4t. The body presented • most remarkable appearance. The back of the bead and neck appeared to have been highly scorched, and in tracing the brown seam of about four inches in width, it was found that the' electric fluid had passed across the stomach, and from thence in parallel lines down the legs to the feet, and BO into the earth. The evidence set forth that the deceased was employed with other men in repairiug the highway in the Park-road, Tufncll-park, Upper Holloway, and that when the storm came on between eleven and twelve o'clock on Wednesday last, he took shelter undone hedge which was overhung by the branches of two trees—beech and willow. He was shortly afterwards joined by Conselim Tyler, • foreman of navigators, who had an umbrella. under which both men sheltered themselves. They bed namely done so when • flash of lightning dashed through two opposite houses, striking down the sufferer.. A man, who shortly arrived on the spot, found Johns lyiag on his back qyuite dead, with his head on the path, and his feet towards the trees, and about two feet from him Tyler was in • sitting posture, but could not move, and was scarcely able to articulate. The cap of each man was torn to pieces, end lying on the ground ; the umbrella was oompletaly shattered to pieces. The ankle jack hoots, also, which Tyler wore, were forced open, the laces being broken into numerous little pieces. Tyler had round his neck • steel watc4uard, which formerly was bright, but at that time had the appearance of having been burnt. The shirt also was burnt black under the chain. The jury ex pressed their opinion that the steel-ribbed umbrella and metallic gusted chain were the conductors of the lightning, which was attracted by the trees under the shelter of which the men were standing, and finally returned a verdict of " Accidental death." Tyler is rapidly recovering. A Hoy SHOT BY 1, OLUNTZERM.—An unfortunate occurrence took place on Saturday afternoon last, on the volunteers' practice ground on the shore at Wallasey. It appears that at half-past four o'clock • small party of the 3rd Cheshire Rifles (Captain Mimbres, Walbue)) went to the shore between the Red Noses and Lemons, for the purpose of ball practice, the rifles used being the long Enfield. The men were under the command of Captain Gray, of the New Brighton Artillery Volunteer corps, and the usual precautions, it Is said, were taken to prevent accidents. Mr. Richard Cooper, landlord of the Ship Inn, was engaged to mark, and his son George, a boy a bout 9 years of age, was employed to carry a danger signal flag. The volunteers were practising at a range of 800 yards, and the lad was stationed amongst the hills at • distance of between 000 and 700 yards beyond the target. The firing continued until 7 o'clock, when a youth named Williams, who was in the company of the younger Cooper, ran up to Mr. Cooper and informed him that his son had been shot. The unfortunate boy was then discovered lying with hie face in the sand, cod blood was flowing from a wound which he had received a little above the right hip. Of course the firing was hums- I distal, discontinued, and the injured lad was re moved in a state of inaensibility to his father's house, where Dr. Parr and Dr. Bverley, who were in prompt attend ance, ascertained that the ball had penetrated through the body and had come out close to the navel. The poor little fellow lingered in great pain until seven o'clock yesterday morning, when death terminated his sufferings. The manner in which the boy was shot MOWS somewhat singular, as be was found lying under the covet of the sandhiUs. It is supposed, however, that the ball struck some hard entetance, and, glancing off in an oblique direction, struck the lad. An inquiry into this melancholy case will doubtless take place today before Mr. Churton, coroner. LIWNG A WILD.• MONEY MARKET.-(THIS DA }.3 Two o'Cloes. The tendency of the funds is still downwanla fresh reduction of per cent. has taken place to-day. In the other departments of the Stock Rachangs business continue, very inactive, and the only movement of importance is a rise in Caledoni an and Lancashire and Yorkshire railway stocks. At Paris this morning, according to Mr. Reuterit telegram, the Three per Cent. Rentals opened at 67fr. 65c., ex div., being the same as on Saturday. Consols are officially marked 881, 4. and I, ex div., for money, and 90k and 90 ex div., fee the acoouut. The present quotations are BAI to 4, for money, and 90 to for the 10th of July. The official business report is as follows :—Rank Stock, 231; Three per Ceuta. Reduced, 894, ; New Three per Cents., 894, 4, 89, ; India Stook (shut), 225 ; ditto Five per Cent. Stock, 97i, el div. ; ditto Bonds, 18e. dia. The Turkish Loan of 1854 has declined * per Gent, being quoted 74 to I. That of 1858 is supported at 55 to }. Other foreign stocks have met with scarcely any busiuess. Sales are recorded as fel lows :—Portugueso Three per Cents., 1853, 47} ; Russian Three per Cents., 1859, 62 ; Spanish Passive, 163 ; Turkish Six per Cents., 1858, fer account, 55, }. The Prince of Wales and Peru have arrived from Melbourne—the former with 89,0001. in gold, and the latter with 58,0001. The discount market on Saturday was rather quick., but not much business was done below 6 par ' cent., as it is foreseen that during the present month, -when the revenue will accumulate, the Bank will have a large degree of control over the market. The applications at that establishment were to a fair extent for a Saturday. Only 6,000!. in gold was bought by the Bank on. Saturday. The Tyne, for Brazil, will take 14,0001 in silver and 3,5001. in gold. The Africa, for New York on Saturday, hes taken 65,1151. in specie, making altogether 6,693,0001. since the end of last November. The remittances are checked for the present, bj the difficulty of procuring loan s on securi ties in the Stock Exchange, as well as by the feet that a certain amount of securities is at present being moat back to America, where the prices of many kinds of state and city bonds are now higher than inLondon. The Manchester journals announce the &Hume( Messrs. Pearson and Briggs, manufacturers. The amount of their liabilities is not stated. The Liverpool cotton market on Bi;turday was steady, with sales to the extent of 8,000 bales. The London agents of the Illinois Central Company have received from New York the following report, which shows how general is the dis turbance occasioned bythe present political troubles: °Moe of the Illinois Contest Railway Company, New York, May Z. Messrs. Robert Beason and Co., London. Gentlemen,—There has been a great prostration of boa nese in Illinois for the last week or two, in cioasequenee el the depreciation of the currency. The basis of seenrity ea which the issue of bank notes was founded is state sees ritise—eay, Missouri, Tennessee, he.—formed • masidssabls item, sad differing in the respective banks as to their rim- Mon. These securities are very much reduced in vales—a very few of the banks have other representative valseetehar Nowa. Many of them have little or no lbw's= bat sittalwr notes. These notes, exoept the few, are not worth over Ms. to 90e. on the dollar. The people have repudiated this cur rency at par rates, and it his been proposed that thy should be taken and paid out at the MOO they are napes tively valued at. Another proposal is to take ea welsegedl elms at par, including in them bank hones valued at 80s. be 90c. ; a third proposition that all but specie paying beaks should be refused altogether. Telegraphic repeats hod I to the belief that the latter is to be astablisieei. It mast be so in the end, se it is impossible to maintain • depreciated currency in a community which has so !ergs as export of absolute necessities of life as Illinois. files ma command the specie. This disturbance, and the unsettled skate of polities! affairs, has influenced our receipts, both from operations and land. It will take a little time to pat basins= in eta regular frail. In the meantime it is satisfactory to Sad we are keeping a-head of last year, and that the land inquiries an showing an increase over those in the early part of the mouth. The mouth's movements will afford a fair oppmtnnity et forming some conclusion as to the business o the company in prospect.—Yours truly, (Bisned) THONAB E. WALW. Chairman Executive Committee. At the annual meeting of the emperor Life Assurance Society, held on the 30th May, the direc tors' report Mated that during the past year the company's progress has been more satisfactory than on an previous occasion. The number of policies issued in the year was 5,425 for 30t,6961., against 2;850 policies for 209,4021. In 1860. At the same time, both the expenses and claims for the past year were considerably less than for the previous one. A dividend of 5 per cent. on the paid-up capital was again ',recommended and declared. In the Fire Insurance department the directors' repast likewise shows a favourable result. A dividend meeting of proprietors of the Londe& and Westminster Bank is called for the 17th July. The arrangements are notified preparatory to the payment of the half-yearly interest on the shares of the Oriental Inland Steam Company. akTUILDAT levamea.
