FIRRI and overpowered by the most melan choly feelings. In a word, not only nothing has been done before and since the arrival of the Grand Duke which should in any way les sen the deep and general dissatisfaction i❑ the nation ; but, on the contrary, the Government, composed of the police and the soldiers, spares no effort in rendering the indignation greater and the oppression still more unbearable. What will be the result of such a system it is more than I can discern. If the present silent but most terrible re volution which is going on in Russia does not bring the Emperor to his senses, and induce him to grant justice to his own subjects as well as to the Poles, he may, like his brother Emperor of Austria, be deprived of the finest and the richest part of his heterogeneous empire, which Poland constitutes. DIITINISHING YIELD OF GOLD IN CALIFORNIA. The Californians are anticipating the time when they shall be compelled to turn their attention to other pursuits than gold digging. Placer mining in some parts of California has already ceased to be profitable for white men. In 1852 gold miners earned 10 dole. per day, and in 1862 they are ob liged to be contented with 21- do's. It is estimated that if the fruitfulness of the gold mines continues to decrease in the same ratio as it has done for the last ten years, in 1872 no white man will be found at work in the gold mines. American writers ex press an opinion that in a few years California will get rich by carrying timber to China. The latter country having been densely populated for ages, is bare of timber, and the monster forests of California could furnish that product for centuries to come. California could also supply the fleets of steamers Which will be required for the Chinese rivers. " The Chinese," says a Californian paper, "are alive to the benefits of river steamers, and to the i advantages which shipments on European vessels give in safety and certainty of insurance. Before the pirates made the voyages of the junks almost impossible, the Chinese merchant calculated to lose one - venture in three. He now avoids the risk by freighting in foreign bottoms. The opening of the rivers will call for the construction of a fleet of light draught steamers, which California can supply. We have faith the trade may be ours if the efforts be made to secure it, and that as our mills increase and labour diminishes in value, we may make steady shipments of timber to China's great valley, and, if We will, that the return vessels may be loaded with a product which will give employment to Califor nian looms and spindles. Our northern forests will resound with cheerful industry, and our shipyards give forth the productions of ingenious labour. Youthful California and Oregon will spare to aged China the surplus of their forests for the products of her plains, made bare of wood by the wants of Centuries of a dense population."

An instalment of 15 per cent. falls due on the Egyptian Loan to-morrow, and 10 per cent. on the Russian Loan, less, in each instance, the sums paid in full. The amount of gold bought by the Bank to-day was £BO,OOO, making an aggregate of £761,000 for the week. The mail steamer Oneida has taken £12,230 in gold for Brazil. The Liverpool cotton market has become quieter. The sales to-day were limited to 8,000 bales. Long staple and American cotton was firm, but Surat was heavy, and in some instances lower. An extraordinary meeting of the National Dis count ConTany is called for the 23d instant, when a dividend is to be declared. An extraordinary meeting of the London and Provincial Marine Insurance Company is convened for the 16th inst., to confirm the resolutions passed at the meeting on the 26th ult. Vice-Chancellor Sir J. Stuart intends on the 22d inst. to make a call of las. per share on the contri butories in class 1 of the " London and Birmingham Extension, and Northampton, Daventry, Leaming ton, and Warwick Railway Company. Assuming that the rumour is correct that the fresh issue of Egyptian Government stock will be equal to 50 per cent., and be assigned at par to the existing bondholders, with dividend accruing as from the Ist September next, it is worthy of remark that the existing stock, at 7 per cent. premium, is really not much above par, the 50 per cent. of new stock being worth about £3 10s., and the first divi dend of £3 10s. becoming due on the existing bonds o❑ the Ist September. It will be safer, however, not to regard any of the proposed arrangements as absolutely certain until they are officially notified. rhe rise to-day was promoted by purchases to close speculative operations for the fall, but the principal investments effected latterly appear to have been on German account. CITY NEWS---THIS DAY. CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. Owing to the impression that the Bank directors at their meeting this afternoon may reduce their minimum rate of discount, business in the general money market is temporarily suspended. The ex pectation of a decline is strengthened by a further arrival of £450,000 in gold from New York. The Etna, from New York, has brought £450,000, and the Macgregor Laird, from the West Coast of Africa, £10,500 in specie. The first ordinary meeting of the Telegraph to India Company will take place on the 25th inst. It has been notified by the Spanish Financial Commission that the auction of the Foreign Re deemable Debt will take place at Madrid on the 29th inst., and 6,261,472 reales have been assigned by the Government for that purpose. The last week's railway receipts, ascertained up to this day, are in round figures as under :- 1862. 1861. Great Western .. North-Western South-Western ltrighton Midland youth-Eastern Great Northern aneashire and Yorkshire.. Bristol and Exeter Eastern Counties North-Eastern Edinburgh and Glasgow treat Western of Canada These returns are generally of a satisfactory character. On the Great Western there is an in crease of £9,009; on the North Western of £12,704 ; on the South Western of £10,026 ; on the Brighton of £2,888 ; on the Midland of £3,053; on the South Eastern of .£2,011 ; on the Great Northern of £1,470, and on the Eastern Counties of £2,890 ; the Lancashire and Yorkshire, however, shows a decrease of £4,712, and the North Eastern of £2,237. Two o'CLocK. ALTERATION IN THE RATE OF DISCOUNT. The directors of the Bank of England have just announced a modification of their discount regula tions, by reducing the minimum from 3 to 21 per cent. Very little surprise has been produced by this important movement, because the condition of the market and the general prospect of affairs had prepared the public for the change. The balance sheet which will be published this evening is ex pected to show a large increase of bullion and a considerable falling off in the loan and discount operations. The measure seems to meet with gene ral approbation, as the continuance of the minimum at 3 per cent, when discounts were obtainable else where at 21 per cent., was incompatible with the interests of the proprietary and inconsistent with the actual situation of monetary affairs. The English Stock Market to-day opened rather heavily, and a decline of per cent. ensued, Consols having touched 91i 92, and 92 921 for.the account; they are now, however, rather firmer owing to the reduction in the Bank rate of discount, the latest quotation being 92 94, and 921 4 respectively. Tne New Threes are flat at 918 921; the Reduced at 911 921 ; Exchequer Bills remain at 15s. to 18s. prem. ; India Stock has improved to 226 ; and the Five per Cent. Loan has fluctuated from 1081 to 107, the latest price being 1071 •4. In the Foreign department Mexican Stock has been adversely influenced by advices from the Re public via New York, and the price has receded to 284. Russian 5 per Cents. have declined to 95; ditto New Loan Scrip is firm at dis.; Spanish Certificates remain at 9 ?,-; Turkish 6 per Cents. are 841 85; ditto, 1858, 712; and the Scrip is 11 Z. prem. ; Egyptian Scrip is 61, 7 prem. Business in the Railway Share Market has con tinued moderately active, and, owing to a few speculative sales, prices have in some instances shown less firmness. Caledonians, Eastern Coun ties, Great Westerns, Lancashire and Yorkshire, North-Westerns, Midlands, and North-Eastern (Berwick) have declined 55.; North-Eastern (York), 10s. ; and North British, IL Great Northerns and South-Westerns, however, have improved 55.; and London and Brighton, 10s. The Foreign and Colonial undertakings have con tinued inactive, without any material change in values. Great Luxembourg realise 141; Dutch- Rhenisla, 171; Cape Town and Dock, 1071; Great Indian Peninsula, 1u1*; Bombay and Baroda, 100 U.

COURT OF DIVORCE. (Before the Judge Ordinary and a Special Jury.) TURNER Y. TURNER. This was a petition presented by the wife, praying for a judicial separation on the ground of cruelty. The respondent, who denied the cruelty, was a surgeon, carrying on business at Kensington, and the petitioner, his wife, was a lady of property, of which she become pos sessed through a person to whom the respondent had been medical attendant. The petitioner, in her examination, said she had the mis fortune to lose one of her legs some years previous to her acquaintance commencing with the respondent, and one of the acts of cruelty practised by him towards her was that, whenever he wanted to annoy her, be used to take away her artificial leg and lock it up, leaving her to be carried to bed by the coachman. While in Wales, shortly after her marriage, they had a quarrel at the hotel at which they were stopping, when the respondent rang the bell, and on the chambermaid making her appearance he (respondent) gave her petitioner's artificial leg, which usually laid at the side of the bed, to take down to air. (Immense laughter,) She also spoke to other acts which she considered cruelty. The petitioner was under examination when the court rose at quarter past four o'clock. CRIMINAL COURT...THIS DAY. OLD COURT. CHARGE OF MANSLAUGHTER. Mary Mahony, 29, was indicted for feloniously killing her infant child, Mary Mahony, aged seven years. The prisoner, it appeared, had been out drinking, and returned to her home at an early heur in the morning, and through intoxication she fell down on the floor with her child in her arms and went to sleep. On awaking it was discovered that her unfortunate child had died through suffocation. The learned judge stopped the case, observing that the child no doubt had lost its life by accident. After a severe admonition the prisoner was discharged from custody. CHARGE OF ARSON. William Kersey, shoemaker, was indicted for unlawfully attempting feloniously to set fire to a certain dwelling-house, George Brennan and others being therein. The jury returned a verdict of acquittal. PREFERENCE S Blythe and Tyne :0 p.o pref. issued at £5 Res.. Exet. 4p. c. st Do. shares l'7aledon. qr. shrs, No. 'Cork & Bandon, 55 p. c.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET. ROBBERY AT HER MAJESTY'S THEITRE.—HeIIty Mat thews, a well• dressed young man, who gave the address, 16, Water•place, Hackney-road, and described himself as a commercial traveller, was charged with the following rob • bery at Her Majesty's Theatre : Mr. C. W. Noble, varnish manufacturer, 117, Long-acre, said—l was at Her Majesty's Theatre last night at 8 o'clock with my wife, and waited some little time at the pit en trance, and on the door being opened there was a rush to the side door, and the prisoner so pushed in as to separate me from my wife. The prisoner then again pushed me, turning me right round, and at that moment, while stand ing sideways, I felt my watch, of the value of £3O, go. I immediately turned round and said to the prisoner, " My watch is gone," at the same moment observing the pri soner's arm go towards another man. I rushed to the man and seized him, but he had nothing in his hand, and on turning round I saw my watch under the prisoner's foot. The watch produced is the same, and is a presentation watch. I picked it up and seized the prisoner, there being no other males present but myself, the prisoner, and the other man, the other persons being ladies. I called for the police and the prisoner then endeavoured to get away by getting under some ropes which divide the opera-house from Charles Matthews' entertainment. A constable then came up and I gave the prisoner in charge, the other man getting away. On charging the prisoner he replied, " Oh, sir, you are mistaken." inspector T. Cavanagh, of the A division, in charge of the police arrangements at Her Majesty's Theatre, said— Last night I went to the Hackney road, but could find no Water-place. I then went to a Warner-place, but could gain no information of the prisoner. Of late there had been numerous robberies at the same part of the theatre, and I have seen the prisoner several times about the theatre. Gideon Mansfield, 139 A, proved apprehending the pri soner while trying to escape. Remanded. SHAMEFUL CRUELTY TO A HonsE.--J ames Stonor, in the employ of Mr. Collis, a market gardener, of Lower Common, Putney, was charged, at the instance of Mr. W. Love, chief officer of the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, with using a horse in a total unfit state. The horse was brought to the front of the court, and pre sented as wretched a spectacle as could well be conceived. The evidence of Sinclair and Smith went to show that they saw the horse drawing, or trying to do so, a cart heavily laden, and finding the wretched state the poor brute was in they took the prisoner into custody. The owner of the horse was in court, and wished to take it home again, and ho would then have it killed. Mr. Knox refused the owner's request, and said he should order the horse to be killed, and he would then discharge the prisoner. The owner—who, however little he thought of his horse, evidently took good care of himself, judging from his portly and robust appearance—consented to have the horse at once killed, and left with the society's officers. WESTMINSTER. VIOLENT ASSAULT ON A POLICEMAN BY A SOLDIER.— Joseph Mahoney, Royal Engineers, was charged before Mr. Arnold with being drunk and riotous, assaulting Police constable B 79 (Hemming) and tearing his trousers, and also with assaulting other persons. It appeared that about four o'clock on the previous after noon the prisoner was in the Queen's-road, Pimlico, in a state of intoxication, and causing a great disturbance. He was seen by some gentlemen, who spoke to 122 B, advising that he should be taken to the station-house. The prisoner resisted in so determined a manner that the officer was obliged to obtain the assistance of B 79. The prisoner upon seeing that officer, put his right leg between those of the officer (79) and throw him down. The constable was much hurt. He got up, when the prisoner repeated the assault. He also tore that officer's trousers. It required the assistance of four constables to carry him to the station house, (as he was very violent and unable to walk there through his intoxication. H em ming said that he was unable at present to go on duty in consequence of being so injured. Prisoner, as he was being carried to the station-house, seeing twe Guards men, called upon them to rescue him, when one of them (the officers) " Let him go." Mr. Arnold—What is the damage to the trousers ? Hemming—Ten shillings, your worship. Mr. Arnold (to the prisoner)—What is your answer to the charge ? Prisoner—l have been a teetotaller many months. Yes terday I met my father. I had not seen him for some time, and took a little too much to drink. Mr. Arnold—That was your fault. You are fined 30s. and also the amount of the damage done. The prisoner, in default of paying the penalty, was locked up. SHIPPING---THIS DAY. LONDON, July 10.—Wind this day at noon—South- Westerly; moderate breeze, and fine weather, but cloudy at times.

PROSECUTION OF "ESSAYS AND REVIEWS."—It is generally r eported in circles likely to bo well informed upon the m atter, that there will be no further progress i n the legal proceedings wh;ch have been taken against two of the writers of " Essay s and Reviews," the h R e v.

The Cumberlan d Pac q uet sa y B—T few visitors at the lakes this season, the prev a ili ng we t weat h er , dulness of trade, and the opening of the Interna tional Exhibition having, no doubt, prevented many parties from visiting the charming lake and mountain scenery o f their native land.

At a meeting of the Common Council this day, at the Guildhall, the freedom of the city was presented to Mr. George Peabody in accordance with the terms of the follow ing resolution, which had been carried in the Court a short time ago, on the motion of Mr. Deputy Reed : "That the honorary freedom of the Corporation of London, in a gold box of the value of 100 guineas, be presented to Mr. George Peabody, an American citizen, in grateful re cognition of his priucely munificence in devoting the sum of £150,000 towards the relief of the needy and deserving poor of the metropolis, and of the Christian liberality of feeling which dictated that the fund thus cleated should be administered irrespective of considerations of nationality party, or religious belief." HANGED IN ERROR A man of considerable property, in or near London, died, leaving an only child, a daughter, aged about eighteen, and by his will appointed his brother his guardian and sole executor. The will directed that if the daughter should die without having married, or if married without children, her fortune should go to the uncle, whose interest was therefore supposed to be incompatible with that of the niece. Several of the relatives, discontented with the father's ultimate dispobion, threw out dark hints that they ought not to live together; notwithstanding which, the uncle removed the niece to his own residence, near Epping Forest. They were both seen one day walking together in the forest, but the young lady suddenly disappeared, and the uncle declared that he had sought her as soon as he had missed her, and knew not whither she had gone, or what had become of her. This account was considerable impro bable, and appearances being clearly suspicious, he was arrested and brought before a magistrate, where other cir cumstances, which were hourly coming to light, rendered his position serious. A young gentleman from the neigh tourhood had been paying his•addresses to her, and it was stated, and generally believed, that he had gone a few days before she had been missed on a journey to the north, she having declared that she would marry him on his return. The uncle had repeatedly expressed his disapprobation of the match, and she had loudly reproached him with unkindness and abuse of his authority over her as his ward. A woman was produced, who swore that about eleven o'clock in the forenoon of the day the nieoe was missed as she was passing through the forest, and heard a young lady's voice earnestly expostulating with a gentleman, and, upon drawingnearer to the spot, distinctly heard the following expressions : " Don't kill me, uncle—don't kill me I " Being greatly terrified she hurried away from the scene, and imme diately afterwards heard the report of fire-arms. On this combination of circumstantial and positive evidence, coupled with the suspicion of interest, the uncle was tried, convicted of murder, and immediately after, accord ing to the Draconic code then in force, executed. About ten days after the execution the young lady reappeared, and, stranger still, all the evidence given on the trial proved to be strictly true. The niece they declared that, having resolved to elope with her lover, they had given out that he had gone on a journey to the north, while he had merely waited near the skirts of the forest until the time appointed for the elopement, which was the very day she disappeared. He had horses ready saddled for them both, and two servants in attendance on horse back. While walking with her uncle he had reproached her with her resolution to marry a man of whom he disapproved, and after some remonstrances she passionately ex claimed, " I have set my heart upon it. If Ido not marry him it will be death to me; and don't kill me, uncle, don't kill me !" Just as she had pronounced those words she heard a gun fired, at which she started, and she after wards saw a man come from amongst the trees with a wood pigeon in his hand, which he had then shot. On approach ing the spot appointed for the meeting with her lover, she formed a pretence to induce her uncle to go on before her, and having fled to the arms of her suitor, who had been waiting for her, they both, mounted their horses, and im mediately rode off. Instead, however, of going to the north they retired to the neighbourhood of Windsor, where they were married the same day, and in about a week after they went on a tour of pleasure to France. There they passed some months so happily, that in those days, when news papers were scarce, when there was no very regular postal communication, and no telegraphs, they never heard of the uncle's sad fate until they returned to England. —.Dick ens' s " 411 the Year Round." GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY.—An adjourned Wharncliffe meeting of this company was held yesterday at the Paddington station, to consider certain bills relating to alterations in lines in connection with this railway. The secretary reported that the bills were not ready, and the meeting therefore stood further adjourned until the 14th instant. LONDON AND NORTH-WESTERN RAlLWAY.—Yes terday a special general meeting, adjourned from a previous day, took place at the Euston station, to consider the pro visions of the following bills—Mr. Richard More in the chair :—A Bill for authorising the Abeiystwith and Welsh Coast Railway Company to make and maintain additional 1 nes of railway, and to reclaim lands near to their lines, and to raise further moneys ; A Bill to enable the Eden Valley Railway Company to construct certain extension and branch railways, to use portions of other railways, and to raise additional capital; a bill for authorising extensions of the Oswestry, Ellesmere, and Whitchurch Railway. The chairman announced that neither of the bills referred to was in a sufficiently forward state to be submitted to the shareholders, and therefore the meeting must be adjourned till a future day. The meeting was accordingly adjourned till the 15th July. UNPAID PASSENGERS ON BOARD THE GREAT EASTERN.—The Cork Reporter says that no fewer than 14 men, principally tradesmen, were brought on shore from the Great Eastern by the Queenstown police, who went on board to search for some parties charged with the murder of a policeman in Manchester; but though not finding the accused, they succeeded in easing the ship of 14 unpaid pas sengers, who had secreted themselves on board at Liver pool, determined to have a free passage across the Atlantic. MR. W. D. SEYMOUR AT SOUTHAMPTON.—Last night Mr. W. D Seymour addressed a monster meeting of upwards of 2,000 persons. The Mayor of Southampton took the chair. Mr. Seymour denounced the Middle Temple benchers by name, and also the conduct of Mr. Bovill, Q.C., in the House of Commons. He read a cor respondence between himself and Sir George Hay ter in reference to his having been appointed Recorder of New castle, and in which Sir George denied that the appoint ment was prompted by political motives. A resolution de nouncing the conduct of the benchers towards Mr. Seymour was passed amidst tumultuous cheering and the waving of handkerchiefs by the ladies. Some fearful fights took place, and several persons who attempted to interrupt the meeting were dragged out and maltreated. Mr. Seymour spoke for nearly three hours. THE CASE OF STABBING IN THE DOVER-ROAD. — This morning Mr. Inspector Tupin and Acting-Inspector Wise, upon proceeding to Guy's Hospital, to inquire into the state of Mr. Jas. Meens, who was fearfully stabbed by the female with whom he cohabited, were informed that the unfortunate man died about 10 o'clock the over night from the effects of the injuries inflicted upon him. As he lay in a state of insensibility when visited by the magistrate, his depositions could not be taken. The deceased was a surgical instrument-maker and flint-glass merchant.

This was said with a look Qf, " What have you to say to that, mum ?" I found contention with him hopeless. I had brought the loveliest plants with me, which all died under his hands, so his days in our service were numbered ; for utterly deprived of society as I was, if my garden had failed me as amusement, I should have been badly off indeed.—Once a Week. THE FIELDFARE.—AII the ornithologists anclgene ral naturalists, English and Scotch, that we have read with reference to the fieldfare, class it as a bird of passage, that leaves these islands in spring and returns in autumn. Meyer, in his masterly work, says it is a native of the sombre forests of Europe, that it comes to Britain in November, and that "very few instances of the bird remaining to breed have been authenticated" Snapp, one of the most correct of local observers, in his " Journal of a Naturalist," says that he every year no ticed a few field - fares that h ad de ha th ems elves from the main flock, and he adds , "I ha reason to believe that these retreats are occasionauy f orme d for the purpose of forming note, th ou g h they are a ft er wards abandoned with ou t i ncu bation." Fi e ldfares are resident natives, however, in the Border counties, and schoolboys there know their nests and eggs as well as they know those of the hecige•sparrovr.—Once et Week, THIRD JH)ITION.

The Marquis of CLANRICARDE asked the noble and learned lord opposite (Brougham) whether he intended to postpone a bill which stood in his name for second reading relating to cases in the Divorce Court, relative to the vali dity of marriage being tried by jury. Lord BROUGHAM said he would proceed with his bill with as little decay as possible, but (as we understood) ha did not think it would be during the present session. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The Duke of Cleveland and the Earl of Sandwich's Es. tate bill was read a second time. The Metropolitan Meat and Poultry Market (western approach)—Rickmansworth, Amersham, and Chesham Railway—London, Chatham, and Dover Railway (Batter sea Junction)—and Stafford and• Uttoxeter Railway bills were read a third time and passed. DEPAR i'MENT OF JUSTICE. Lord BROUGHAM asked whether there was any in. tention on the part of the Government to give effect to a re solution of the other House of Parliament, which was come to about five years ago relative to the establishment of a Department of Justice. Earl GRANVILLE said at that moment he could not give the noble and learned lord an answer to his question. SALMON FISHEIUES (SCOTLAND) BILL. Their lordships then went into committee on this bill.

ALLEGED GH!EVANCES ON THE PART OF THE IRON SHIPWRIGHTS. Mr. DOULTON presented a petition from a number of shipwrights who had been engaged in the iron ship-build ing trade complaining that persons who were acquainted only with the construction of wooden ships were employed in the Government docks in the making of iron vessels, for which they had not a requisite mechanical' know ledge, which was alike unjust to the men engaged in the peculiar department of iron vessel building, and most injurious to the public service. SIR W. ARMSTRONG'S GUNS. In reply to Mr. OSBORNE, Sir G. LE WIS said that a number of the 12 ton guns of Sir W. Armstrong's invention had been ordered by Govern ment, and guns of a still larger calibre were ordered by the Government. _ __...,. RECOGNITION OF THE KINGDOM OF ITALY. n reply to Mr. C. BENTINCS, Lord PALME RSTON said that from information which the Government had received, he understood it was the in tention of the Russian Governinent to recognise the king dom of Italy, without reference to any conditions, the inten- Cons of that kingdom being pacific towards the neighhouring States. He believed some negotiation had taken place pre viouslv between the French and Russian Governments on the subject. RELAXATION IN THE LAW RELA.TING TO LICENSES. In reply to M.

The great point which had been achieved b h . y t is country in regard to this mat ter was the facility of concentrating troops at a given point, which rendered anything like the permanent occupation of this country, to which he alluded, most improbabl e . At one ti me a l arge body of troops could be conveyed from one portion of the kingdom to another at the rate of only three miles an hour, while at present they could be conveyed at 30 miles an hour. He contended that it was an inevitable sequitur that the maintenance of the forts proposed would require a large number of soldiers, which must necessarily detract from the military efficiency of other departments. From the published opinions of compe tent military authorities, it appeared that 6,000 gunners would be required for the working of the ordnance of the pro posed forts.
