table opoosito each chilli. Besides those engaged in play, there were several other persons, whose features and manner proclaimed their dissolute character, collected in little knots in different parts of the room. They were betting together, making matches for Epsom and Newmarket, or disputing about the merits of different cock-feeders and trainers. Amongst these groups, the gayest-looking and most notice able comprised Tradescant and Chatteris, with their fishionabh friends, Wilkes, Tom Potter, Sir Francis Dash wood, and Sir William Stanhope. With them also was Sir Theodosius Turnbull, a Leicestershire baronet, who had been a great foxhunter till he grew too fat and heavy for the saddle. He was now in pretty good cue, having drunk three bottl es o f t h e delicious Haut Brion, for which Pontac's was renowned. These personages were talking and betting much in the same style as the rest of the com pany." The glimpse here caught of Tradescant and his " surroundings" gives the key to the whole of the present instalment—every chapter of which is dashed off with the fluent and sparkling pencil that has already given to its wielder so wide a fame as a romancist. The Wild Flowers, Birds, and Insects of the Months. By H. G. Adams. Hogg and Sons. This is a pleasant book, issued at a seasonable time, published at a moderate price, and treating of interesting subjects. To those young people on whom the deli g ht s o f d olls and toys begin to pale it will be very acceptable. the Papal Criminal History. By Dr. Beggi. Laudable as is the aim of Dr. Beggi's work—that of revealing Roman Catholic iniquity—we fear the indolent general reader will be appalled at its bulk. Few in these degenerate days care to wade through 800 pages of controversial theology, especially when plentifully garnished with Latin extracts. MONEY MARKET. CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. Daring the - past week there has been little change of importance to record in the progress of business throughout the various manufacturing districts. The woollen trade at Leeds, however, has been steady, owing to the increased demand for goods suitable for the autumn demand. Business at Man chester has continued dull, although the more favourable advices from India and China have caused a slight advance in the value of both cloths and yarns. The hosiery and lace trades of Leices ter and Nottingham have remained inactive, but a more cheerful tone has prevailed through the re ceipt of orders from Canada, and a better inquiry for home requirements. In the hardware districts business generally has shown little if any improve ment, although there is an increased demand for plate iron for ship building purposes. There was again an active demand for cotton in the Liverpool 11Iarket on Saturday, and prices were very firm. The sales amounted to 10,000 bales. The bullion operations at the Bank of England on Saturday were of an unimportant character. The Shannon, which sailed to-day for the West Indies, conveyed £9,800 in silver." The West India steamer La Plata has brought about £820,000 in specie. A call of £lO per share becomes due to-morrow e n the Danube and Black Sea Railway new shares. There is a steady demand for discount accom mod,ation in the general Money Market, and it is supplied on the terms current at the close of last week, namely, from 21 per cent. upwards, according to the date and character of the secu rities offered for negotiation. Owing to the im pending liquidation of mercantile accounts it is , expected that the demand will temporarily in crease, and the rates will probably exhibit greater firmness, although no permanent alteration of importance is anticipated, unless largo quantities of specie shall be transmitted to the continent.

A WORD ABOUT COPLEY.—The visitors to this gallery will make friends with a great painter with whose 'orks they have been familiar only through engravings, and the one picture of the " Death of Chatham" in the }Louse of Lords. They will now see the incomparably finer Nvork, " The Death of Major Pierson at Jersey, in 1780." Tehe struggle of a hard fight and the sweeping tide of vie ' tory were never rendered in a truer manner than in this little episode of the Channel Islands. The artist will, however, be more struck with the power of Copley as a portrait painter. Let every lover of the art study No. 61 " Family Portraits," as we question if, in any quality of tgood paintin g , sp l en d id drawing, and composition, J is etuorrpassed by the best efforts of either Sir Joshua or Gains Here the three generations of the Copleys are to mughe tilt youngest child romping in its mother's lap burst hi Ver y Nestor of th e U pper House, Lord Lynd • y ears a ; . : LI This picture wes pa i nte d more t h an 80 `'hat ages of on e of it s s it ters still adorns our senate. tress and in Power of the adv ance En g; an d h as made in material great powerportraialas I h ow s h e b as retrograded in t h e life I —Once a Week.

Good and fine fresh dry samples of English wheat changed hands more freely in the leading country markets, held on Saturday, and in some instances an improvement in prices of is per quarter was obtained. Inferior parcels, however, were dull inquiry, at previous rates ; and the demand for spring corn was in a sluggish state, on about former terms. Flour was in moderate request at late currencies. The corn trade on the continent has continued inactive ; but from New York we learn that wheat and flour were in steady demand for shipment to this country, at slightly rates. Up to our market last week, the arrivals of English wheat were very small. From abroad we received 35,121 quarters of wheat ; 22,943 barley ; 54,407 oats ; 1,573 beans; 686 peas; 14,599 linseed; 11868 rapeseed; 6,544 maize; 443 sundry seeds; 190 sacks and 4,805 barrels of flour. A very small supply of English wheat was received fresh up to this morning's market, and although there were sam ples on offer which had been left unsold at the close of business on Friday, the total quantity on offer was much restricted. The condition of the supply was unsatisfactory. A few good-conditioned parcels were taken off at prices barely equal to those realised on Monday last; otherwise, the trade was in a very sluggish state, and in order to effect sales, a reduction, say of is per quarter, was compulsory on the part of factors. The market was well supplied with foreign wheat. Good and fine qualities, chiefly from Dantzic and Rastock, were in fair request, at last Monday's prices ; but inferior de scriptions met a dull sale at barely late rates. Floating cargoes of grain were in slow request, yet no quotable change took place in their value compared with Monday last. There was scarcely any malting barley on offer, and the quotation for it must be considered quite nominal. Grind ing and distilling sorts, with which the market was well supplied, but chiefly with foreign, sold heavily at a decline of is per qr. The business doing in malt was very moderate, at pre vious rates. Really fine samples of oats were firm in price, but all other kinds moved off heavily, at a reduction in value of 6d per quarter. There was an extensive show of foreign oats on the stands. The demand for beans, the supply of which was small, was far from active, yet the quotations ruled firm. White peas were in request, at an advance of 2s per quarter. In other kinds no change took place. The flour trade was in an active state, yet prices were without material alteration from Monday last.

Privately, the English wool trade is dull, at barely late rates. METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET: There was a moderate supply of foreign short-horn s to day, in fair condition. The Spanish beasts were of prime quality, and realised good prices. From our own grazing districts, as well as from Scot land, the arrivals of beasts fresh up this morning were sea sonably extensive as to number, and generally prime as to quality. Although the attendance of butchers was nume rous, the demand for all breeds ruled heavy, at barely last week's currency. The best Scots and crosses realised 4s. 4d. per Sibs. We understand that stock will begin to arrive from Lincolnshire in about a fortnight from this time. From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, we received 2,650 Scots short-horns, and crosses; from otter parts of England, SO various breeds ; from Scotland, 350 Scots and crosses.; No arrivals from Ireland. We were aesswiably well supplied with sheep, both as to number and quality. Downs and half-breds moved off steadily at full currencies, the top figure for the former being 4s. 10d., in some few instances 55. per 81bs. Heavy breeds, however, were a dull inquiry, on rather easier terms. Inferior sheep ruled about stationary. There was a fair supply of lambs on offer, in byno means first-rate condition. Down qualities of lamb moved off steadily at full quotations, but inferior breeds were a dull inquiry at barely late rates. The top price was 7s. Bd., but a few pens realised Bs. per Sibs. About 360 lambs came to hand from the Isle of Wight. Calves were in good supply and moderate request at late currencies. No change took place is the value of pigs, the supply of which was good.

The nearer we approach the great event to be decided on Wednesday the more open the race appears to be. Yery few of the candidates for the blue ribbon of the turf ap peared on the Downs yesterday morning. The Marquis was the principal attraction, and no horse looks or goes better. His condition is perfection, and John Scott is very sanguine of success. The Marquis, Hurricane, Ace of Clubs, and Q.E.D. were the selected few that came in for the largest share of praise, Q.E.D. decidedly having "the call" over the present Oaks favourite. The Ace of Clubs is a great, good-looking horse, but I fear he is a roarer. On the Downs at Epsom, Wadlow had Miss Julia, Spice box, Lord of the Manor, Lord Clifden, and Ace of Trumps. Lord Clifden is a real good-looking horse, and will take a deal of beating in the Woodcote Stakes. Lord Glasgow's lot comprised Stockwell colt, Clarissa colt, Brown Bess colt, Flutter colt, Stockwell filly, Coalition filly, and the Weatherbit and Maid of Masham fillies. Of this lot the Stockwell colt •is decidedly the best. Wingrave and Norroy did gentle work together, but I think the Baron must wait for another year. Joseph Dawson had four out, but Ensign had not arrived. Zetland and others of John Osborne's lot got here late last night, and were out on the Downs up to the time of writing. Laughing Stock and others of Godding's lot arrived towards noon. Mr. Merry's horses were expected to arrive this.morning. It is not yet decided who is to ride Buckstone, but it %r• rumoured in well informed circles that at the last moment Sir Joseph Hawley may be induced to let Wells have the mount. Everywhere the sole topic of conversation is the Derby, and it is impossible for any human being to escape being bitten with it. The favourable change in the weather will add greatly to the crowd of visitors as well as to their amusement, and Mr. Dorling, as manager of the entertain ments, might head his card on Wednesday with " the first appearance of the Japanese Ambassadors." The list for to-morrow extends to six items, two of which have yet to close, the Craven and the Horton Stakes, the former of which will doubtless be the most important event of the day, from the light it is sure to throw on the Derby, as most of the great stables will, as usual, send out a pilot to see how things are likely to go, and should Tim Whiffler, Cape Flyaway, and Asteroid meet, as they most probably will, the contest will evoke an immense amount of interest. The Woodcote has a splendid entry of fifty-nine, or twelve more than last year, of which the following fifteen have been in public : —Saccharometer, the Orphan, Escape, King c! Eutopia, Batsman, Sibyl, colt by Windhound out of Elcot's dam, Tarragon, The Avenger (Capt. Coates's), Declaration, Trumpeter, Judea, Dunkeld, Lady Superior, and Semley. Both Lord Strathmore's horse and Lord St. Vincent's filly have shown good form, but my decided pre ference is for the Orphan ; though, at the same time, it will not surprise me if the winner springs from the " dark " division, and those whom I have heard well spoken of are Tom Fool, by King Tom out of Skit, the Fronch pair— Hospodar, by Monarque out of Sunrise, Lord Clifden, and Alcibiade, by The Cossack out of Aunt Phyllis—and the colt by Stockwell out of Ennui, bought by Mr. Fisher at the Middle Park sale last year for 750 guineas. The winner; I expect, will Le LORD CLIFDEN, brother to Lady Clifden. In the Rous Free Handicap the acceptances are one in excess of last year, as they now number twenty-five, of which the best to my thinking are Cantine, Miss Vivian, Bloodhound, and Adrasta, while the Heathcote Plate seems likely to be won by Shillelagh or Lady Clifden, though some speedy ones are engaged with them, such as Fravola, Little Lady, and Voltella. Wednesday is the " Derby day," when the great race which has earned a world-wide fame will be brought to issue in the presence doubtless of the greatest multitude ever as sembled on Epsom Downs, and that it will be contested in a manner worthy of the renown which has so longattached to it there can be no question, and there is every probability of the field exceeding that of Teddington's year, when 33 horses ran, as from what I can learn not more than three or four of the following will be absent when Mr. M'George gives the signal for the start. _ _ _ Horses. , Probable Riders.

Bevill Alchymist Drew Maharajah Brewty Hubert .... J Snowden The half of those that will take part in the tourney are scarcely above the level of platers, an d therefore I shall only refer to those from which the winner is likely to turn up. The great Whitewall stable will certainly run four, The Marquis, Ace of Clubs, Malek , and Yard, and some say Welcome is also likely t o be ado Thousand,daendgtuothe list. Mr. held the Hawke's horse has, ever since the that f ore most place in the betting , and he is entitled to tak e precedence of all the horse s which ran in that race no one can question. He is now fi rst favourite, and is certain to run first or second. 'B uc k s tone is a bay colt , by Voltigeur, out of Burlesque 1 (the dam of Pantomime, Polmoodie, Head Knowledge, and Newburgh). With the exeeption of Pantomime, it will be seen that Burlesque has not foaled a single animal capable of stayg, and as that property invariably comes from the female aide, the student of equine physiology may not be an admirer* Mr. Merry's colt. Buckstone is a "foreigner," having `been foaled in France, but made his debut at "Aristocratic Ascot." Although he had undergone a hur ried preparation, his appearance' impressed the talent so favourably that h e was made a hu g e fa vourite, and, in re ceipt of 101 b. from Marignan, he landed his first race by the shortest of heads. Behind the pair was a large field of flyers oecr this distance of ground, including the celebri ties, Miss Julia, Twilight, Gabrielle d' Estrees, Lady Ripen, Hester, Amsterdam, General Hess, and Pellucid, all beaten an immense distance. At the Game meeting, he ran second to Alvediston, giving him 61b., and being only beaten by a neck, and conceding 101 b to Hippodamia (second), beaten a similar distance, while Wingrav e , then slightly " off," was fourth, at level weights with Mr. Merry's colt. Upon these two performances Buckatone's claims must chiefly rest, but Alvediston verified the Ascot " form" at Stockbridge; for, in receipt of the blb from Mr. Merry's colt, he won in a canter, the four behind them being very moderate, Blood hound and Watchfire being the best of the quartette. This closed Buckstone's career in 1862, and, although engaged in the Criterion, he was not brought out, because Mat Daw son felt convinced that, being a great raw, unfurnished colt, i he required time, and he was consequently thrown up for r the remainder of the season. During the winter months he remained first favourite for the Derby with scarcely any interruption, though in the spring he was temporarily de pressed in the market. Ho was the very first horse quoted in the public points in connection with the Derby, and when this borne is in mind, he may be said to have stood his ground with remarkable firmness. Buckatone has trained on well since he last appeared in public, and those who have taken liberties with 10m wily regret it when they see him stripped for the Derby, as Mr. Merry is more sanguine this year than he was last with Dundee. I expect to see la . na start as good a favou rite as the Marquis. Caterer has been completely knocked out of the betting, and will not likely trouble the starter. He was as fit as it was possible to make him when he ran for the Two Thou sand. Even should he come fit and well to the post The Marquis is sure to beat him again. Lord Glasgow has determined to run his four, but the best is the Stockwell colt, and shows signs of improving on his Two Thousand form. Neptunus, from having last year run a dead heat with The Marquis, is now a great favourite, and if the running was correct Mr. Jackson's horse must have a great chance. Zetland, though not out this year, has worked his way point by point in the betting until he now holds the position of third layout ite, with, as they say in the City, "an up ward tendency." On what grounds he is entitled to be held in such favour lam at a loss to know. It is not cer tainly on the form he displayed in public, as he only won three of the 14 races for which he contended iast year; and any one who reads "Baily" and " Ruff" attentively will at once see that Neptunus alone must hold him safe. For Ensign, Norroy, Warminster, and the Typee colt, I have no fancy whatever. Sir Josephßawley's three, Argonaut, Duke Rollo, and St. Alexis, have all been backed recently, the weight of th• money being put on Argonaut - , which leaves room to infer that his owner fancies him most, but I cannot have it that he is better than Duke Rollo, Sir Joseph's horses have all been out recently, and if public running is any criterion to go by, Duke Rollo is certainly the best of the trio, as he gave Canwell, the one that beat Argonaut, more than a 141 b beating. Therefore, if Sir Joseph wins the Derby it will not be with Argonaut. The other starters are not worth referring to, as I believe the Derby is reduced to a match between the MARQUIS and BUCKSTONE. By way of anticipating the judge in his decision, I will place them in the following order.— BUCKS FONE THE MARQUIS 2 NEPTUNUS 3 If an outsider wins the Derby it will be DUKE ROLLO, as Harlequin who ran fourth to Duke Rolla in the race that he won in a common canter beat Carbineer the same week at weight for age, for the Queen's Guineas, which was a great performance. With reference to the Oaks I will state my opinion on Thursday, but in the meantime I cannot see anything in the race likely to upset Hurricane, the One Thousand winner, unless it be Q.B.D. or Moula. A FRESH MAN. BETTING AT MANCHESTER-SATURDAY. For the Derby The Marquis remains very firm. There were takers of any advance upon sto 2 freely. 11 to 2 was booked against Buckst3ne, but afterwards 6 to 1 was laid and offered. Anything beyond that would have been taken The only other feature of the day was the support given to Neptunus, who came with great force, and all the bets at 100 to 8 that could be got were taken 100 to 9 was booked, but 10 to 1 was freely offered. There was a little business also transacted on the Oaks, in which Hurricane was at 4 to 1 (offered), and 5 to 1, but not very freely, about Q. E. D.

CHARGE OF EMBEZZLEMENT.—Joseph Lilley, a respec tably dressed man, was charged on suspicion of having embezzled v&rious sums of money received by him as pub lisher of the St. James's Chronicle. Mr. 3. G. Stuart, solicitor, of Gray's-inn. square, said he was the registered proprietor of the paper, which was pub lished at 13, Tavistcck,treet, Covent•gatden. It was defendant's duty to receive all moneys across the counter, to deduct his own salary of two guiner.s a week, and all payments made on account of the paper, to keep accounts of the same and pay the balance once a week into the bank of M,ssrs. Twining. Mr. Thomas L. Coward said he was an accountant to the paper, and being dissatisfied with the accounts the defen dant rendered, he appointed to meet him on Good Friday last for the purpose of examining the books. The defendant waited on him and told him he was unable to get at the ac counts, as the person in charge of the office was not within. Another appointment was made, but defendant did not keep it, and witness saw nothing of him till his appre hension on the present charge. The defendant had not at tended at the office during the interim, but had handed over his duties to Mr. Stacey, a friend, who was now pub. lishing the paper for him, Ile considered the deficiency, as far as he bad at present ascertained, to be about £l5O. Cross-examined by Mr. Lewis, who appeared for the defendant—The defendant no doubt had to pay for stamps and receipts, and to make other disbursements. Mr. Stacey said he handed over three sums of money to the defendant on the 21st, 23d, and 24th of April amount. ing on tho whole to about £32 on account of the St• James's Cht onicle, and that money had not been paid to the bank. Mr. Stuart, who appeared for the prosecution, sad he would confine himself to charging the prisoner with ab sconding with those three sums. Mr. Stacey, in continuation of the examination, said he paid the money to the prisoner at his (witness's) house, and, as the duty was being performed for him (defendant), as a friend, he did not take the receipt for the same. Mr. Corrie observed that the witness, in fact, acted as Lilley's deputy. Witness answered in the affirmative. In cross-examination by Mr. Lewis, the witness said Lilley p•tid for stamps for the paper out of the money, but he could not tell the amount. He would also deduct his salary, and make other -petty charges. He could not say whether these charges would or would not absorb the whole of the money he (defendant) received. Mr. Lewis contended that the whole question was a mat ter of account, and he was prepared to pay down £lOO to abide a proper investigation into the whole of the circum stances connected with the case. His client had made payments fully equal to his receipts, but the books had got confused. The defendant was a most respectable man, and the charge was most preposterous. Mi. Corrie said he thought the best thing ha could do was to enlarge the bail for a week, during which time the accountant and the defendant could go over the books to.. gether. Th;s course was adopted, and the defendant left the dock stock stock stock stock stock stock st,ck 20 1061 I I i 3.0.6 561 17s ($.15.f 8.12 4.14 1.14. 4.3.0 12.3 2.3 0 2,2.9 1 10.0.7 5.11.6' 1 18.1 •.1 28.9. 1.7.2 It 09i 60 THAMES, THIS DAY, D _James Reid, a stonemason, who l w N a G s E d ß e ° sc7ibe A d s a g s AllL av T. very respectable man, wa s b roug h t brought before Mr. Woolrych, char ge d with assaulting front" of the London Hospital, Mrs. Hannah Loveridge, the landl a d y of the British Oak, pu blic-house, Oxford-street, S opposite th e "b ac k tepney, The prisoner was ordered to pay for the damage he had d on e, and to keep the peace towards the plaintiff for six months.

THE MERSEY, 'EWELL, &c., PROTECTION BILL. ' On the motion for going into committee on this bill, Lord KINQSDOWN presented a petition complaining of the extensive powers and penalties granted by certain provisions in this measure. The noble lord thought the bill ought to be well considered before it was allowed to pass as a private measure. Lord REDESDALE said at first he had great doubts about this bill being allowed to proceed as a private bill, and he was of opinion that it cameunder the new order lately made. The powers complained of by the noble lord were necessary to protect the navigation of the river, as the select committee, after great consideration, approved of them, he thought the bill audit to be allowed to pass. Lord OVERSTONE supported the prayer of the peti tion presented by the nolile and learned lord. Lord CAMPER DOWN opposed the meosure, and moved that the house go into committee that day six months. Lord CHELMSFORD hoped the bill would be allowed to go into committee. Lord STANLEY of ALDERLEY thought the house ought to hesitate before they granted such extensive powers as the bill conterred, and that it was desirable to postpone it for general legislation. The Esti of DERBY supported the motion for going into committee. Earl GREY said the bill differed in no essential particu lar from the ordinary bills granted for the protection of harbours and rivers ; it only extended over a larger dis trict of country.
