LION EY MARKET, CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. There is a steady demand for discount accommo dation to-day, but the rates exhibited greater easi ness, a favourable effect having been produced by the appearance of the Bank of England return, showing a reduction of only £166,125 in the bullion, although £400,000 in gold coin was withdrawn during the week for transmission to Constantinople, on account of the recent Turkish Loan. At the Bank yesterday the bullion operations were not of public interest. The foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon ex hibited a slight advance in the rates on Amsterdam and Hamburg. Since Monday last the imports of specie have been about £57,000, and the exports £820,000. At a meeting of the creditors of Messrs. T. Sv s varder and Co., brewers, of Luton, it was ulti mately agreed to accept a guaranteed composition of ss. in the pound, payable in two instalments. The traffic receipts of the South Austrian, Lom bardo-Venetian, and Central of Italy Railway, for the week ending the 20th inst., amounted to £54,560, against £49,117 at the corresponding period of last year. The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday was again Tathor active, and prices exhibited increased firm ness. The sales were about 10,000 bales. The traffic manager of the Cape Town Railway and Dock Company, under date of April 21, reports that the receipts from February 13 to April 20 amounted to £3,293 19s. 101 d. on twenty miles of live. Sixteen thousand passengers had been con veyed during that period. Formal application had been made to the Government to open a farther por tion of the• line to Stellenbosch on the Ist of this month.

John Lemon was this afternoon placed before Mr. Corrie, at the B ow-street Police-court, on remand, charged with causing t. "te (loath of Anne Gedling, of No. 11, Whitehart street, Dru'rPlane. It will be recollected that, on Saturday last, Mr. Corrie rena tided the prisoner, in order that Mr. lovatt, :he k iurgeon, might be enabled to make a pest mortern .;xamin ation of the body of the deceased, as it was at thattime very' uncertain how death was occasioned. Mr. Lovett, surgeon, of No. 23, Clare-street, said be had ,made a post mort i on .examination of the body of Anne Ged linc, and the result was that he had no doubt but that death NVES occasioned by the drinking a solution of cyanide of ptassium, and nitrate of silver. He found the remains gin in some bottles that stood in a cupboard near to where the cyanide of po l `assium was kept, and he thought it highly probable that the deceased had taken the poison in mistake for gin. Inspector Brimbscombe .aaid he had made the most search ing inquiries, and he had no further evidence to offer. The prisoner was then disc barged. ,AS;SESSMENT TO THE .SUPPORT OF THE POOR.

LAW--THIS DAY, Business done COURT OF DIVORCE. (Before Judge Ordinary.) BRAWN V. BROWN. 104 105} i i 1031 i 103 111 9} VJLDON V. WALDON. This was a petitica presented by the wife against her husband, praying for dssolution of marriage on the groend of cruelty and adultery. There was no opposition. The parties were coisins, and they eloped to Scotland, where they were marred in June, 1854. They afterwards returned to England where the marriage ceremony was performed according to the form of the Established Church, and after that they welt to reside at Berwick-upon-Tweed, where Brown's father with whom he was in partnership, carried on the business of a plasterer. The habits of the respondent became vet' irregular, in consequence of which the partnership with his father was dissolved. Mr. and Mrs. Brown came to London in 1835, and took up their residence with petitioner's mother. The respondent's tem per became very viant, and Brown was in the habit, while under the influence of drink, of striking his wife. The conduct of the reapndent became so violent that she was compelled to leave um in August, 1859. There was one child living. _ . Witness having paved the statements in the petition, The court decreed a rule nisi, with costs, directing the mother should have cetody of the child. This was a petition presented by the husband, who sued for a dissolution of narriage, on the ground of adultery. The petitioner waEa compositor, and, in 1857, in conse quence of ill-health, le was compelled to go to Southamp ton, where he remaired for about 10 months, during which time he never cohabied with his wife. On his return to London he discovere4 his wife was enciente. She admitted the adultery, but reused to give up the name of the adulterer. He subsetuently discovered that the name of the man was Harriot, and ever since his wife had left his (petitioner's) house the had been living in adultery with him. The Court made a lecree DERBY - PROPHECIES, (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) The Derby I shall refer to at length on Monday. My present impression is that if anything beats The Marquis it will be Buckstone. When The Marquis was at 20 to 1 for the Derby and 10 to 1 for the Two Thousand, I strongly advised him to be backed for both his engagements, and those who acted on my advice must now have rare good " edging" for their money, as will be seen from the follow ing remarks which appeared in The Sun of March 3 : "The Marquis has completely recovered his temper, and he will be a better favourite for the Two Thousand before long. Remember the Tom Bowline and Wizard Trial two years ago, when The Wizard was sent to 25 to 1 before the day of the race, which made Tom first favourite up to within an hour of starting, when half a point less was taken about Lupellus. The Wizard's price at starting was 25 to 1, and he won easily by three lengths, and poor Tom was third last. So my advice is not to be gulled again, as The Mar quis is undoubtedly the best horse in Scott's stable, and, if he only keeps well, will be very formidable both for the Two Thousand and Derby." A FRESH MAN. The following are the concluding remarks of the various London sporting writers : " BEAOON". ' —Bell' s _We. Having thus summed up the pretensions of every likely candidate, it will be seen that I am strongly prepossessed in favour of The Marquis, Neptunus, and Caterer, and as I see no reason to doubt the Whitewall horse staying the course quite as well as either of the others, I give a slight preference to THE MARQUIS, believing that if the trio should be destined to defeat by an outsider, Schehallion may achieve the distinction. " RHYMING RICHARD"—BeII's Life. But as they draw towards the Stand, Two horses struggle for command. Neptunus, wiry, stout, and strong, Steals like the viewless wind along, And thundering fiercely on his track Gleams out " the yellow and the black," Those colours which stern Fate's decree Bade vainly float o'er game Dundee.

DICKINS. This was a petition presented by the wife against her husband for dissolution of marriage on the ground of cruelty and adultery. Jane Edge Dickiis, the petitioner, said she resided at Clinton-terrace, Coiontry. In 1851 she was married at St. Thomas's Church, Rrmingham, and they afterwards resided at Draper's-terrace. She did not live with her husband 12 months, as about time months after marriage he began his ill-treatment, in ccasequence of her receiving one of her sisters, who came on a visit. On that oc casion he gave lur two black eyes. A few months atter that he took tp the carving knife and made her go down on her knees aaa swear no one had been in the house since he had left. aie remonstrated with him about his conduct but he continued to illtreat her. He used also to level a gun at her ald threaten to shoot her, and one Sun day she recollected him taking a whip with which he flogged her. The Judge—Did he strike sharply ? NVitnessa—Yes, eery. The Judge-Ordinary—And leave marks ? Witness—Yes. The Judge-Ordinary—Did anybody see them ? Witness—No. Re-examined—Tvo or three persons saw the black eyes. On another oc.casiul her husband took out a penknife and threatened to open one of her veins that she might bleed to death. She screamed out and her brother cams to her assistance and took her away. Her husband struck her two or three days from her confinement because she had permitted her father to keep her. In a short time after she got about again he threatened to murder her. He made her kneel down to say her prayers as he said he intended. He used to keep a lotion that he compelled her to use to pre vent her appearing vith 'black eyes.'., . several witnesses corroborated the evidence of the wife, and proved the adultery. The Court made a decree nisi. POLICE -THIS DAY. BOW-STREET, Tills DAY. ASSAULTING A MARRIED WOMAN.-- George Holiday was placed before Mr. Corrie charged with assaulting Elizabeth Hewson. Th e complainant said, last evening, she was passing through Trafalgar-square, and from what she saw was induced to believe that the prisoner intended robbing an old soldier, who she afterwards found had two medals and a quantity of in oney on his person, as he had; just returned from India. She refused to leave the soldier until she saw him in safety, when the prisoner struck her two blows on the chest. She called out, and two.or three persons came to her assistance. Phineas Yewen said he was near the spot at the time when he was attracted by a small crowd of persons, and on going up saw prisoner strike the woman a violent blow on the chest. William Westc..ott, a private in the Coldstream Gnarls, said the complainant called out to him to protect an old soldier, who was atout being robbed. He went up, and saw the prisoner aita a blow at the complainant. He warded it off, and thet in consequence of the violent con duct of the prisoner he held him until a policeman came up. The prisoner denied;the charge, and said the complainant had suspected him w.thout a cause, and it was in conse quence of the bad names that she had called him that he struck her. The magistrate fined him 20s. for the assault. MARLBOROUGH•STREET, THIS DAY, MURDER/US ASSAULT.—MichaII Zumpf, a German tailor, living in West. street, trolatua•are, Nyaa obarvd with stabbing a Pole, named Johann Rochell, a carver, of Silver-street, with a knife; an t Charles Iredall, a tailor living in Carnaby-street, was also charged with assaulting the prosecutor. Mr. Chalres Albert interpreted the evidence, which was given in German. The prosecutor said he was passing Zumpf's house ,a little after 12 last night, when he knocked at the door wanting to speak to Zumpf's wife, and when he had one foot in the doorway, Zumpf rushed upon him with a knife in his hand, the knife being about a foot long. He (Rochell) seized Zumpf's hand, but could not hold him, and Zumpf then struck aim in the cheek with the knife, and retreated into the house. Prosecutor fell, but afterwards got up and ran into 1. court, where he received a severe blow on the head, and wlile on the ground he was kicked several times by five or sixpersons, among them being Iredall. He afterwards met an dficer and gave the prisoners in charge. He went to Dr. Dancan's, in Cambridge-street, having lost a large quantity of blood, and had his wounds dressed. He knew no cause or the attack, not knowing the prisoner, In answer to the magistrate, the prosecutor said he was acquainted with Ztmpf's wife, and used to visit her two or three times a week but never saw Zumpf there. Zumpf asked tte prosecutor whether he had not forbid den him the houst, as he (Zumpf) was a married man and had a daughter, bat prosecutor denied it. Louisa Zumpf, laughter of prisoner, paid her father did not live with her mother. He had been abroad, and her mother had got aprotection order. He came to the house yesterday evening and most evenings. The witness corobrated the prosecutor's statement. Weeks, C division, proved taking prisoner into custody. Prosecutor first gave Iredall into custody and afterwards Zumpf, who deniel doing it. There was a great quantity of blood outside Nl's. Zumpf's door, but he could find no instrument. He heard Mrs. Zumpf say Rochell should come when he Remanded. • TIAMES, THIS DAY. UNLAWFUL PotSESSION OF TEN SOVEREIGNS. THE Two GERmANs,Heinrich Meyer was brought up on remand before M.. Woolrych, charged with stealing 10 sovereigns, the moneys of Freidenbach Hassenbuttel. The parties are German sugar-bakers, and the very anti podes of each other. They were both living in the same house at No. 1, Neptune-street, Wellclose•square, up to the 21st of May. The prosecutor, an industrious, frugal, and sober man, had saved upwards of £2O, and a few days before the robbers, had paid £9, half the passage-money to New Zealand. The remainder of his hard earned savings were in his trutk in his bed-room. On Wednesday e vening, the 21 s; of May, the prisoner absconded from his lodgings, atd under particularly suspicious cir• curnaances. Oa the same night Hassenbuttel missed his gold from his :NA. Suspicion fell on the prisoner im mediately, and inbrmation was given to the police. In spector Graham, of the Thames division, traced the prisoner to the Howe, a foreign steamship, trading between Bremen and London. and lying off Horsleydovvn• The vessel was searched, but the prisoner could not be discovered. On the following morning Inspector Graham and his boat's crew again overhauled the Howe, and found the prisoner doubled up and secreted under the bowspit. The inspector could obtain no tiding; of the ten sovereigns until yesterday, when the chief mate of the Howe, a German, admitted that the prisoner cane on board the Howe on the evening of the 21st instant, and gave ten sovereigns, which he requested him to take care of. He consented to do so. He afterwards returned to the pri soner one sovereign. The other nine sovereigns were pro duced by Inspector Graham, and the chief mate of the vessel said they were given to him by the prisoner. It also appeared that the prisoner took up and left in Hassen brittle's chest a£s Bank of England note, and that he told the officer he suould have taken that if he had known the value of it. Early on the e morning of May 21 he let fall a bundle of his ovn wearing apparel from the staircase win dow of the house, 11 Neptune-street. The bundle fell close n wasi y, named Carlos Bitango , The pr i fntee of b the people in the house to s e o eo 4 a j e e S t p a eh b o to 0 lead to the believe that he had also been robbed as well as his country man, but he went to work very clumsily indeed, and he left his own watch in his chest. It was also proved that th e prisoner had only b een in England a few months, that he was very poor when he left Germany, and that he had been living beyond his means. Mr. Woolrych was very glad the money was recovered, and ordered it to be given up to the prosecutor. The pri soner was a very bad fellow, and he should order him to be imprisoned for two months, and kept to hard. labour, f or o I the unlawful possession of ten sovereigns. ... . , .. . , " JEAN OF LEADEN"—BeII'S Life. Dear Brethren I as the preachers say in sermons, The great thing in a Derby is to back firm ones— Marquis and Buekstone ; and (I feel perplexed Which after these to take) Sir Joseph next I But MARQUIS, so ends my vaticination, Shall find me my "rewards of devination I " " ORANGE BLOSSOM"—BeII's Life. As, ere reaching the distance, The Marquis compounds, And a gallant bay steed thro' the thick of the brunt Bears the golden-hued Russley flag up to the front; And Zetland's brown vest, as The Marquis falls back, Hugging closely the rails, follows hard in his track Side by side they come on,'tis a match'twixt the pair, 'Twixt the grandchildren twain, of the !nighty Voltaire.

In vain Johnny's steel gores the flanks of the brown, And home in a canter comes BUCKSTONE — " ha nds I down!" "P. W ."--Bell's Life. I'll not keep you longer in suspense, " Don't make any mistake, sir," The shouting it will be immense— The Epsom Downs will shake, sir. Now who's to win the trick this year, I'll tell you in a minute— THE MARQUIS is the horse for me, For I know full well he'll win it ! Singing—Bow, wow, wow, THE MARQUIS for the Derby, Now, now, now.

THE MARQUIS STOCK WELL COLT NEPTUNUS ____ ....,_. _...._ BUCKSTONE " STABLE Morn."—Era. But I am too long delaying you from the account of the interview in the Melton Stable that I spoke of at the be ginning of my letter. There were several tip-top swells present, and the Wizard of the North exhibited the great Derby crack to them, and explained his points. " I say if ever I had a Derby horse under my care, that is one," said he. " What sort of ground, John, will he like best in quired one of the swells. " Why, he will like it a trifle hard, but anything will suit him but mud. If it's mud on the day, why then of course all our calculations will be upset, because in that case it will not be which can go the fastest, but which has got the broadest feet. And lam afraid," he continued, looking out of the stable door, " that it looks very like mud for the Derby Day." " But you think, if it's fine, that he ill be all right ?" inquired one of the gentlemen. "All right I" replied the Wizard, "give me the Downs in good racing order, and I will snap my fingers at everything. When we get to the distance post he will have disposed of everything except Bucketone. It will then look like a match between the two, but in the end we shall knock the Actor over." Such was the opinion of the Wizard, and, therefore, I go for THE MARQUIS. " DERBY ALPHABET." —Era. Gone amiss, and scratched out now is OW Calabar, Or first in the lot he'd be counted by far; So THE MARQUIS shall first as the winner be reckoned, With Buckstone to finish a very fair second : For Caterer the third place we boldly assign, And Neptunus pronounce to be fourth in the line; On Tringrave we venture for fifth place to fix, And _Ensign just fills up the number of six.

Although I may stand alone in my selection, which I think will be the case unless some of my prophetic bre thren " eat their own words," let me at once throw out my representatives in alphabetical order, thus : ARGONAUT, BUCKSTONE, CATERER, with no small amount of assurance that I sha ly anxill have ous re tained the winner in th at trio, and feeling doub in the present instance for a tepetition of the great success that has followed up m y divinations in all nay " single" selections for the great races. Althoughit is perhaps ask ing the fickle goddess too much, yet for the last time let me take my reputation on BUCKSTONE. "COUNSELLOR' —Sporting News. Merely reiterating the opinion I expressed last week, I will say that my fancy points to ZETLAND or BIJCKST ONE as the most likely to carry off the " blue riband" of 1862, and if they are overthrown, I think Caterer is the most likely one to effect it. " OBSERVER"--field. It will be seen from the above remarks, how strongly prepossessed I am in favour of the winner of the Two Thousand. And as Ido not think my arguments can be og ily refuted, I need not take up any more time by pre dicting THE MARQUIS as the winner of this rich Derby ; and next to him I shall e xpect to find Buckzione and Caterer. FLY-11Y-NIGUT"— W eckly Times. I will conclude by expressing a firm conviction that the three present favourites will obtain honourable mention from the Judge, and (though 1 have a wholesome dread of the;Malton crack) relying with considerable confidence '' 551 i 1091 9 72-i f 2 1071 8 Si , St , St , St 931 II 81 127 g i I p FOREIGN RAIL Algerian • LO Antwerp & Rotterdam !CI Ardennes.... •• • • !O Bah.&S.Fran..Lim.7 p.c. 5 Belgian East.

" VATICINATOR"—Sunday Times. Having thus descanted upon the merits and demerits of every likely candidate, and endeavoured to lay before my readers, to the best of my ability, the views I entertain of each competitor, it only remains for me now to give my final selection for the event, the issue of which is involved in much difficulty, and, sink or swim, rise or fall, I cannot desert my "old love," but still asssrt that my faith, although partially shaken, remains firmly attached to the house of " Merry," believing that BUUKSTONE on Wednesday next will be hailed the winner of England's blue riband for )862; whilst the three most worthy of being supported for places are Caterer, Neptunus, and Carac tacus. " AllGllß"—Sporting Life. I have now examined patiently the claims of every ani mal likely to face the starter, and cart see no cause to depart from what I have so long relied upon being fulfilled. I have shown that THE MARQUIS ought to win, and firmly believe in ray own mind that he will win . , He is the best public performer in the race, bar none; he carries the full confidence of his stable, and all the money that could be scraped together at Mallon. Should no accident befall him, should lie escape riarikoff's mishap at the post last year, we are bound to conclude, as shown in nay arguments, that he will win, and easily, too. I am persuaded that he will beat all the other favourites, but shall be prepared to see ZETLAND and CATERER in company with John Scott's horse at the finish. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
