MONEY MARKET. CITY NEWS-YESTERDAY. The arrangements are advertised in connection with the payment of the half-yearly interest on the shares of the Madras and East India Irrigation Companies. . The guaranteed interest on Zealand Railway shares is announced by Messrs. C. J. Ilambro and Son. The half-yearly dividend is advertised on Portu guese Three per Cents., also on Peruvian Uribarren and Arica and Tacna Bonds, and on New South Wales Government Debentures. With regard to the over-issue of Indiana State Stock, the circular of Messrs. Cammann and Co., dated New York the 3d inst., has the following : The total amount of the over-issue of Indiana stock is not as yet ascertained; and, pending the investi gation, the 5 per cent. loan i:3 not quoted at the Stock Board. It is, however, "understood that all the stock which has been transferred to the names of the buyers on the boijks of the state is valid. The Admir,alty will receive tenders on the 23d instant for the supply of 50,000 gallons of rum, 15,000 gallons of vinegar, 5 tons of pepper, and 600 quartets of split peas. _ _ The Royal Mail steamer Tasmania, for the West Indies, takes out £21,150 in gold. The advices from Paris state that the Lyons Rail way Company have announced an issue of 340,000 new 3 per cent. obligations of £2O each, at the price of £l2. The sum thus required will be £4,080,000. Vienna letters mention that the Austrian Govern ment have sold to private capitalists £7,300,000 of the 5 per cent. loan of 1860, lately held as security for advances by the National Bank. The £5OO and £l,OOO Bonds of the New Turkish loan are now in course of delivery, in exchange for the paid-up scrip.

Another str.:amer has been captured by the Federal fleejc—the Nassau, off Charleston. The following telegram, dated St. Petersburg this day (Monday), eleven o'clock, is to the follow ing effect :—" We have had no more fires. Every thing is quiet, and the people are becoming more composed." This very late telegram consequently casts strong doubt upon the accuracy of a rumour which prevailed this day, according to which an insurrection had broken out in Russia. The half-yearly meeting of the Rhymney Iron Company is called for the 2d of July. CITY NEWS---THIS DAY. CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

COURT OF CHANCERY. (Before Vice-Chancellor Sir W. P. Wood.) BOUTICAULT V. WEBSTER. Mr. Dickinson moved for an injunetion to restrain the defendant from interfering with the plaintiff in the manage ment of the artistic prittion of the Adelphi Theatre, he, de fendant; prevented from so doing by an agreement entered into with the plaintiff, directing that Mr. f h e e n had d a n t ; Webster's duties should be confined to the financial depart ment, and the control of the front of the house. The agree ment was drawn up and signed in July, 1861, and was to remain in force for the term •of three years. The drama of the " Colleen Bawn" proved a great success, and was succeeded by another of the plaintiff's pieces, called " The Octoroon," but the latter was by no means so successful as the former, Early in the present year some correspondence took place between the parties relative to the entertainments for the month of June, July, and August, and the plaintiff proposed that "The Colleen Bawn" should be performed on alternate nights with "The Octoroon," This arrange ment Mr. Webster objected to, as he thought that some thing of a novel description should be produced at that particular period of the year. He (Mr. Webster) then di - rected that an announcement to the effect that a new play by Mr. Boucicault, a new drama by Mr. Watts Phillips, and other attractions would be produced, in the bills of the theatre, On the 2d of June Mr. Boucicault, on his arrival at the theatre, asked by whose authority the announcement was made in the play-bills, and on being informed that it was Mr. Webster's, he accordingly applied at this court to call upon the defendant to carry out his portion of the agreement, and to cease from interfering in the artistic portion of the management. Mr. Willcocks, on the part of Mr. Webster, opposed the application. He read at length the affidavit of his client, who denied many of the allegations contained in the bill presented to the Court by the plaintiff, It also objected to "The Octoroon" being played as proposed by the plaintiff, because it had been by no means a great success, as on the nights of representation there had been a great falling off in the receipts compared to those produced by the representation of the " Colleen Bawn," It subsequently became known that the plaintiff was in treaty for Drury-lane Theatre, at which he proposed to produce the "Colleen Bawn." Such a proceed- ing he considered a direct contravention of the agreement, because the object of Mr. Webster entering into the agree ment with the plaintiff was to provide for the exclusive ser vices of the plaintiff, his wife, and his pieces at the Adelphi Theatre only. The defendant, in consequence of the dis agreement, was compelled to enter into arrangements for a lease of the Princess's Theatre, and when it was proposed to M. Boucicault to commence the joint management of that theatre he objected altogether. The reason for such refusal, no doubt, appeared to arise from the fact that Mr. Boucicault had become the lessee of Drury-lane, at which theatre he (Boucicault) proposed to perform the " Colleen Bawn." The performance of that drama at that theatre, he contended, would be a great in jury to Mr. Webster, and he therefore gave the plaintiff notice that he should take steps to prevent it. A number of affidavits were read with respect to the pre- parations that were made for the reproduction of the " Col leen Bawn" at the Adeiphi, and also that there was nointen tion on the part of the plaintiff to entrap the defendant into any agreement he in the slightest manner objected to, or that his proposed opening of Drury-lane would in any manner interfere with his arrangements for the direc tion of the affairs of the Adelphi. The learned gentleman also read a number of letters that had passed between Mr. Webster, Mr. Boucicault, and liarria relative to the occu pancy of the Princess's Theatre. Mr. Willcocks then proceeded to open the cross cause of Webster v. Boucicault, the object of which was to restrain Mr. Boucicault from performing the Colleen Bawn at Drury-lane Theatre. The case was proceeding when we went to press. CRIMINAL COURT--THIS DAY. OLD COURT. (Before the Recorder.) THE HENDON TRAGEDY. The Wel of James Lawrence, who stands indicted for the wilful murder of Ann Sarah Coi, was postponed until next session, on the ground that he was not yet in a fit state to appear in court.

POLICE---THIS DAY. MARLBORO U GH-STREET. OBTAINING A SITUATION AT MRS. CAVENDISH BEN TTNCK'S BY MEANS OF A FALSE CHARACTER.—Richard Field, footman, was charged by Inspector John Wilson, of the C division, with obtaining a situation as footman to Mrs. Cavendish Bentinck, of 48, Charles-street, Berkeley square, by means of a false character. Mrs, Cavendish Bentinck said the prisoner came to her in the month of March last offering himself for the situation of footman. She inquired where he had last lived, and he said with a gentleman named King, at East Woodley, Hants. She asked him whether he could have a personal character, and he said that the gentleman was then out of town. She wrote to the address, and received an answer containing an excellent character of the prisoner, and in consequence she engaged him and he entered on his duties. Finding the prisoner's conduct not at all in accordance with the character she received of him, and which she sup posed came from Mr. King, and which had induced her to engage him, she wrote to Mr. King, asking how it was that he had given the prisoner such a character, but re ceived no answer. She then discharged the prisoner on the 15th of May for insobriety, and afterwards received the letter she had last sent to Mr. King back through the Dead Letter-office of the General Post-office. In answer to Mr. Tyrwhitt, Mrs. Bentinck said she was led to suspect .the prisoner from the peculiar way in which he did his duty, and from his not being at all sober—fre. quently incapable. He had frequently spoken of Mr. King to her, and said that he had lived with him at an hotel in Albemarle-street. Inspector Wilson said about six yesterday evening he went to the Coach and Horses, Mount-street, Grosvenor square, and seeing the prisoner in the bagatelle-room, said, "Field, I want to speak to you." The prisoner then made off through a door in the room he (Mr. Wilson) was not aware of, and after a smart chase he was captured in South Audley-street. On telling the prisoner the charge, he said "Yes, it's all right, but I never took anything while I was there." He had written to the superintendent of police at East Woodley, and found no person of the name of King resided there. Prisoner was remanded. WESTMINSTER. DISGRACEFUL OUTRAGE AT THE TREVOR TAVERN, KNIGHTSBRIDGE.—John Caddemore and Wm. M'Luskey were charged with gross misbehaviour, assault, and damage at the Trevor Tavern, Knightsbridge. Mr. Henry Edward Street, proprietor of the tavern, said that at eleven last evening defendants came into the house, and having been served with some ale by the barmaid, re fused to pay for it. Complainant then spoke to them upon the subject, when he was assailed with the most indecent and disgusting language, which was used by M‘Luskey without the slightest hesitation, and in the hearing of cora : plainant's sister and barmaid. M'Luskey then seized com plainant by the throat, when complainant sent for a police man. Defendants were then put out after refusing to go, when M'Luskey returned again and assaulted the com plainant, and Caddemore endeavouring to force his way Into the house broke a large pane of glass. When Caddemore was removed he was very violent. Alfred Robinson, waiter at the tavern, said that when the disturbance commenced he quietly asked Caddemore to• go out, when he refused. Witness and a fellow barman then removed him, when he seized them by the throat and twisted his legs round them. M'Luskey subsequently struck at Mrs, Street. Wm. Seymour, 187 B, said that when he was called he found ISPLuskey in the act of striking Mrs, Street. He saw Caddemore follow one of the inmates to assault him. Defendants wished torte e to the station and witness allowed them, but when they gt to the station they refused to pay the cabman. Caddemore said he was turned out for smoking, and went back for his hat, which was left in the house, and the glass was broken by accident in the struggle at the door. M'Luskey declared that a dispute arose about payment for the ale, when Mr. Street took his hat off to keep until they paid. Ile then seized Mr. Street to make him give up the hat, and was put out. He went to the station to see what became of his friend, when ho was locked up, All the dis pute arose in consequence of his hat being taken. Mr. Street and the witnesses proved that his hat was not touched by Mr. Street until after he had assaulted him. Mr. Arnold said that the conduct of the two defendants was altogether most disgraceful, and had they been 405., three or ono month, and also find bail for ferently charged they would have been liable to more punishment. Caddemore must find bail for three months, and M'Luskey pay three months. Two hundred of the inmates of the Blind Asylums in London have been presented by Mr. G. W.

This celebrated musician has returned to this country only to renew with fresh renown his extra ordinary repute as a pianoforte player. Yesterday he gave his second matinee, at the Queen's Concert Rooms, leaving two more morning performances—the only other occasions on which be can appear before a London audience this season. It is not surprising, therefore, that the room was crowded with a most elegant and critical audience, the elite of the aristocracy of the fashionable world. The entire performance was by Mr. Thalberg, whose extraordinary power of performance was thus shown in quantity as well as quality. He com menced with a selection from his " Soirees de Pau silippe," in which he gave an andante and an allegretto movement, the letter rising into the Tarantella. In expression and delicacy, whether applied to loud or low utterances, Mr. Thalberg is unsurpassed; and his notes roll in harmonious thunder, crackle with the vehemence of lightning, or dissolve into lucid drops falling from a fountain. He carries a feeling to its very utmost expression, but never pushes it beyond itself intto affectation or mere fan tastic folly. This pecular capacity of dealing with a theme was particularly exemplified in a quartetto by Rossini, and in his fantasia on the Last Rose of Summer. Altogether, this matinee may be pronounced one of the most important and delightful of the season, and doubtless the two next performanceson the 28th instant and the 7th proxime, will be eagerly looked for by all professors and admirers of piano forte music. SOUTH AUSTRALIAN BANKING CO. MEETING THIS DAY. A meetirtg has been held to-day of the South Australian Banking Company. The profit and loss account gave the following results :—Balance as per last statement, £44,513 2s lld ; annual profits from all offices, £46,382 lie ld; together, £89,895 14s. Dividend, July, 1861, £20,003 15s ; ditto, January, 1862, £20,003 15s; income tax, £1,181; total, £41,188 12s; leaving a balance of £48,707 2s, sub ject to a deduction of £4,870 for the reserved fund; the net profit for the year being then £43,837 2s; from which the directors recommended a dividend of 10 per cent per annum, free of income tax, The chairman, previously to submitting the motion for the adoption of the report elicited several ques tions from the proprietors, and in reply he stated with regard to the failure of Messrs. Fisher, who were sheep farmers in the colony, that the direc tors did not anticipate any loss, although they could not arrive at any very accurate information at the present time. The Colonial-office had stated their willingness to comply with the request of the bank to increase their capital. The new shares thus raised would be distributed pro rata among the shareholders, :each of whom holding four shares would be entitled to one new share. The reserve fund, which already amounted to more than £90,000, would, it was thought, reach £lOO,OOO in the course of the year, and with that increase it was proposed to augment,paripassu, the capital by an additional £lOO,OOO. This additional capi tal was required for the several branches este iished, and practically on account of the great extension of the commerce of the colony. A motion for the payment of the dividend was then carried, and the retiring _directors re-elected. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT HOUSE OF COMMONS.—Tms DAY. The SPEAKER took the chair at 12 o'clock.

SAL:NION FISIIERIES (SCOTLAND) BILL. The house went into committee on this bill: Clauses 1 to 28 inclusive were agreed to with a LW amendments. On clause 29, Mr. CAIIW moved an amendment to the effect that the measure should not come into operation until January, 1867, in order to give those who had been engaged in fish ing in these rivers sufficient time. Mr. E. NVEKYSS moved the omission of the clause altogether, but said he would not press his motion if the amendment of the hon , membe r (Mr. Caird) were agreed to. The LORD ADVOCATE considered that a reasonable time should be allowed, and would consent to delaying the operation of the bill till 1865. After some discussion, in the course of which Mr. CAIRD said he would reduce the time he proposed an d substitute for 1867 1866, which would begiving three clear years to the tenants of these fisheries. The committee then divided, when the numbers were — For the amendment Against Majority The amendment was negatived. The LORD ADVOCATE said that, notwithstanding the result of the division, he would not object to make the amendment he himself proposed, and extend the time of the operation of the Act until January, 1865. The clause, with this amendment, was agreed to. The remaining clauses, as well as the preamble, were agreed to, and the Chairman was ordered BILL report the bills LUNACY (SCOTLAND) B.

THE POST-OFFICE. the Earl of SHAFTESBURY presented a petition from 1,608 persons employed in the Post.office, praying for a committee to inquire into the state of their,pay, the system of promotion, the new system of introducing supplemental letter carriers, and the non-production of the commissioners' report of 1860, which has caused great dissatisfaction throughout the service. ITALY. In reply to the Marquis of NORMANDY, Earl RUSSELL said he believed that General Garibaldi had been in communication with certain persons in Italy, with the view of organising a revolutionary expedition to the Venetian provinces, but the movement had been dis covered by the Italian Government. He had no doubt that a proclamation had been issued declaring that if an expedition were sent to Venetia 100,000 men were ready to join it, but he had received no official information of the fact from Sir James Hudson. He believed that an expedition which was got up a short time ago was intercepted by the Italiari Government, and the persons who took part in it were imprisoned. Lord BROUGHAM deprecated the course which the promoters of these revolutionary expeditions had taken. He respected General Garibaldi as a soldier, but not as a statesman ; and as to M. Mazzini, he had no respect for him, either as a warrior or statesman. CANADA. Lord LYVEDEN wished to put a question to the noble duke with reference to the extraordinary act of the Cana dian Legislature in rejecting the Militia Bill, the first measure for the self-defence of the colony which had been submitted to them. It seemed to be a very strange return for the promptitude with which we had sent out troops to support them, when hostilities with America appeared im minent. lie wished to know from the noble duke if he had had any correspondence with the Governor-General which would enable him to state the causes which had produced this result. The Duke of NEWCASTLE said he was not in a posi tion to give any information beyond that which had ap peared in the newspapers. Probably many of their lord ships \NAId be aware that a Militia Bill passed through the Canadian Legislature some seven or eight years ago, but Erolll Val ioun oiroutnotwaoeo it La.l kapveilea that that militia force had only existed on paper. In consequence of what occurred last winter, and the earnest representations which were forwarded to Canada some three or four months ago, a militia bill was introduced, which was rejected on its second reading, on the ground that it would not work well. NV hen the new Ministry got into working order a new bill would, he thought, most likely be introduced. SECOND READINGS.

COMPENSATION TO BRITISH SUB JECTS BY THE MEXICAN G-OVERNMENT. Lord It. MONTAGU gave notice that he would move for a return on this subject on an early day, THE WAR IN AMERICA. Mr. HOPWOOD gave notice that on the Ist of July h e would move a resolution to the effect that it Was the duty of the Government of this country to endeavour to term' nate the civil war in Ameriert hv their friendly interferer:: OMNIBUSES. Mr. DAVISON asked the Secretary of State for the teeheanbesteenrcae () o f f omnibuses in any present H lim ora ita e t p ion ep o a f rt f m ar e e n s t demanded whether, conductors by the metropolis, it would not be desirable to place these public conveyances under the same regulations as hackney carriages; an d, w hether the Government wou ld u ndertake l eg islation with that object. • Sir G. GREY said that it Would not be possible to adopt th e same regulations relative to omnibuses that were in force in respect to hackney carriages. Omnibuses came u nder the denomination of stages coaches, and they went l u ng and stated distances, and there was aregulation by which the proprietors were obliged to plaee inside the carriages a list of fairs for the different distances in their routes, and they were not entitled to charge more than the price which they specified. EXAMINATIONS UNDER THE NEW CODE. Lord R. CECIL asked the Vice-President of the Coun cil on Education whether arrangements had been made at the Council Office for the appointment of clerks and deputy inspectors to assist in the examinations required by the New Code ; and whether, before such appointments are made, an estimate of the expense to be incurred on that account will be laid before Parliament ? Mr. LOWE said there had been no such appointment as that alluded to by the noble lord, and it was not anticipated that any such would be required during the present year. THE QUEEN'S COLLEGES. Mr. HENNESSY asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland, when he will lay before the house his scheme for reducing the professorships in the Queen's Colleges, and appro priating to other purposes the grant now given for main taining the libraries arid lighting and cleansing the buildings. Sir IL PEEL said that the matter was being considered by the proper authorities, and it would be necessary to have a statute to give effect to the decision at which they might arrive. OMNIBUSES. In reply to Mr. GRIFFITH, Sir G. GREY repeated in substance the answer he had already given on the subject. Mr. GRIFFITH thought it wo uld be de4rable if the list of fares were placed outside as well as inside omnibuses. Sir G. GREY said all he could do Was to inform the house of the law on the subject. I.ll,Sjyara TRANSFER OF LAND BILL (LORDb). On the motion for going into committee on this bill, Sir H. CAIRNS moved that it be referred to a select c ommittee. He was desirous that the bill should pass this session, but from its importance it was necessary that it should pass in the most perfect form possible. It had. been said that this measure was merely a permissive bill, but that was only true in a limited sense, and the result of the measure in its present state would be to bring the purchaser of an estate into conflict with the owners owould. f surrounding estates whose titles to their properties have to be investiote,d. The result of this would be that there would be endless disputes and litigation. (Hear.) With the greatest respect to the opinion of the Upper House, from whom the bill had come, he tho Lght the course he recom mended would be most conducive to public interest. Ho drew the attention of hon. m embers to the fact that there was not an entire concur rence of opinion amongst tho members of the house as to all the provisions of the bill and he analysed at some length the sth and -three con" lowing clauses, which he considered required ti's alteration. He d enied that there any identity between this bill and the Eneu ni bered Estatedes- C o urt in Ireland, from which it was said to have been rived. M r , COLLIER said that if this bill were referred to a select from its comm ittee it would be strangle d, for the hOuse /mist know experience that in the case o f any bill :el'crred to a select comm itt ee at that period of the y ear, it ,)uld be e xtremel y difficult to secure the attendance of meinbeni on a committee upstairs. But were it otherwise, he did. not think the measur e required to be considered before a select committee, as the subject had been ventilated for the last 30 years, and how could it be expected that when there were so many other measures to be legislated on for the re mainder of the session, members could devote their time exclusively to this bill, notwithstanding its importance . Mr. WALPOLE considered that it would be savinte: the time of the house if the bill were referred to a select commit- , t e e, and that th e b il l would be improved b which he considers. - tion it would r eceive from the tribunal to it was pro ' posed to submit its details. Mr. MALINS said that he had already expressed his o pinion that this b ill was not worth paseing, a nd that no select committee could improve it to an extent that would. render it worth passing. For that reason he itra.s not pre pared to give the bill any active opposition ; and he agreed. that referring the measu re to a select committee would. have the effect of strangling it for this session. Mr, SCULLY opposed the reference of the bill to a select committee, and contended that no evidence off any voter in be addition to what had been previonsly d could brought before any select committee. Mr. ROLT supported the amendment for referring the bill to a committee, Sir F. GOLDSMID opposed the amendment, as he con sidered the details of the bill could be efficiently discuesed in a committee of the whole house. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said that the duty of the Goverument was to pass this bill without delay, a ide rd th ere fore their course was to ask the w hole house to dec on the bill without a preliminary enquiry, which would. endanger its passing this session. A few remarks b y Mr. HADFIELD, in support of the amen dment, brought the debate to a close, and on a divi sion the amendment was negatived by 180 to 124. The house then went into committee, and proceeded with • the consideration of the varietts c l a uses of the bill. On reaching the 14th clause, the house resumed, and, at a quarter-past 12 o'clock, the Chaim:All reported progress. The order of the day for considering ate report o f com mittee of supply gave rise t o some discussion upon the vote for Britium, which elicited all. • exp l ana tion from the the CHANCEL sh LOR Muse of the EXCELECLUER, in _defence of the late bill of the Government fo r the p urchase of land and cons truction of buildings for th e rece p tion of the natural history collection at South Kensington. The rig ht hon. gentleman stated that, viewing the Museum as an institu tion which was likely to require considetable extensions, the Government did not deem it wise 'to proceed with such extensions upon a site so costly as that of Bloomsbury. He could not, therefore, hold out any expectation that they would consent to adopt the recommendation to opurchase land for the extensions at Bloomsbury at the rate 450,000 an acre, when it could be obtained at South Kensington for V. 0,000 ; and he was not prepared to submit any Owls to the house upon the subject in t he course of the present session. Lord 11. LENNOX expressed himself is favour of eel's, ration of the collections, and decidedly preferr ed Kensington as the site. The land there was cheaper, and the estate a large one. He suggested, above all, Kensing. ton as a site, because it was known the Albert Memorial was to be erected opposite Kensington Gore,and bethought South that if collections were moved there, the new Museum of Natural History would make a suitable portion of that great memorial which the nation was anxious to raise to the memory of the Prince Consort. The report was then agreed to. The Artillery Ranges Bill and the Naval and Victual.. ling Stores Bill were passed through committee. On the order for v 33i1l a second time, Major KNOX moved as an amendment that it be read u second time that day three months. Di s cussion ensued, and ultimately, at the suggestio n of Lord NAAS, Sir R. Peel consented to withdraw the bill for the present session. The order for the second reading was thereupon dig.. charged. The order for reading the Courts of Justice Building Bill was also discharged. The Discharged Prisoner.' Aid Bill was read a the time and passed. Sir G. GREY obtained leav e to brin g in bills for the safe keeping of petroleum, and to a mend the law rel,ating tO coal mines. The house aijourned at a quarter to two o'clock. MARKETS-THIS DAY.
