ATONE r iNIARKET. CITY NE W S—YESTERDAY. The renewed abundance in the money market.has been attended with a decided increase in the de mand for Exchequer Bills, which have risen 35., closing at 63. to 95. prem. The last price from Paris this evening was 68f_ 55e., showing a further advance. About £240,000 in bar gold was taken to the Bank today. _ _ In the foreign exchanges this afternoon the rate upon Paris was a shade higher ; otherwise there was no alteration of importance from the rates of last post. There has again been undiminished excitement to-day in the Liverpool cotton market, at a further advance. Later commercial telegrams from New York were received in the city this afternoon, announcing that the premium on gold had advanced to 7 per cent., and the rate of exchange to 116;, with a corres ponding upward movement in the nominal prices (in paper) of all securities. The half-yearly meeting' of the London and Greenwich Railway Company is called for the Bth of July, when a dividend of 7s. ld. per cent., or ss. sd. per share, free of income tax, witl be recom mended. The first ordinary general meeting of the share holders in the Metropolitan and Provincial Bank (Limited) is called for the 15th July. A second cad of £2 10s. is to be paid by the 12th of July on those obligations of the Netherlands Land Enclosure Company on which only £2 10s. has yet been paid. Later American telegrams, received this after noon, describe great excitement in business circles at New York with regard to the continued and important rise in the exchange, which has now reached 118. The premium on gold has at the same time risen to 7to 71 per cent. The movement in each instance is promoted by the necessity of making remittances to Europe against the large amount of American securities sent from this side. To-day's advices speak of shipments of specie to Europe to the extent of no less than 1,800,000 dollars, or £360,000 sterling. The rise in the premium on gold has also probably been stimulated by the arrangements for the circulation of an additional amount of 150,000,000 dorlars of demand notes. Meanwhile the issues of Govern ment paper are still inflating the prices of securities at New York. For foreign purposes, the American currency is of course useless, and specie must be resorted to. The foreign pressure for specie upon the American markets is aggravated by the eager ness with - which the Americans, in addition to carrying all their new Government securities, are taking their old stocks back from the hands of holders in Europe. European holders, on their part, are the more willing to sell, because they dis trust the permanence of the fabric of paper -which the Americans have reared, and in which they ex press such unbounded confidence. • Although the total of gold sent into the Bank since the last weekly return, including the amount to- day, has reached half a million, and the conti nental exchanges show increased firmness, the English funds remain without recovery. The half-yearly interest is announced on Victor Emmanuel Railway Bonds. CITY, TWELVE O'CLock. 'W ithin the last fortnight an important change bas taken place in monetary prospects. Just before • the cessation of the efflux of sovereigns from the j3an k of England i n con nection with the Turkish L oan, most pe rsons were an ti c ip a ti ng an advance in the m i n i mum quotation ; but now there appears to be greater probability of a movement in the other direction, because gold is accumulating, the com mercial requirements of the country are limited, and the available supplies of floating capital will be largely augmented by the impending release of the July dividends. Two or three new foreign loans are spoken of, but the amounts involved are compara tively small, and with the sustained importation of gold from America, Australia and other sources, there is reason to believe that the reserves of the precious metal 'will continue to be maintained at a high figure. Bankers and others are taking advantage of the opportunity to ask rather higher terms, but they still grant concessions, especially to their regular clients, sufficient to divert business from the Bank of England. A call of £1 10s., amounting together to £187,500, becomes due to-morrow on the Scinde (Delhi capi tal) Railway shares. CITY NEWS—THIS DAN . CITY, Two O'CLOCK. Speculative business in stocks and shares con tinues dull, and as the investing public still show the Stock Ex a pref erence for new enterprises, ehan ge markets necessarily remain inactive. Mexi can Bond s are now the principal med i um of time dealings, and the frequent changes must involvea they large am ount of the ' differences." Spanish Certi ficates also c on ti nue to engage attention, b ut are now c omparatively firm owing to the result of speculative influ ences, and a scarcity of t h e securi ties created by purchases on account of the public, who hav e b een persuaded to believe that the Cor ti.es really intend t o make some arrangement. The Funds are exceedingly dull and depressed, the bar gains entered i n t o to-day having been of the mos t 1 imited character. Consols are 912 4 for money, and 914 i for the account. The New Threes and the Reduced remain at 91i I ; Exchequer Bills have improved to 9s. prem. ; Bank Stock is 233 and 234; and India 5 par Cent.

Russian Scrip con tinues flat at par to 4 pre,,,, Turkish 6 per Cents., 1854, have improved to 834 ; ditto 1858, remain at 701 4, and the Scrip at 31 4 prem. In the Railway Share Market the dealings have again been limited, and prices have remained with out change of importance, Lancashire and Yorkshire, however, have improved ss. ; and South Westerns 10s.; North Westerns, and Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincoln, declined ss. ; and London and Brigh ton 108.

HOUSE OF COMMONS—THIS DAY. The SPEAIiF,R. took the chair at 12 o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. . _ The United Kingdom Electric Telegraph Company (Lords) was cmsidered ; and the Dover Reclamation Bill was read a second time. PETI LIONS. Some petitions were presented against the Tramways Bill, the Sale of Intoxicating Liquors, and a large number from different parts of the ITnited Kingdom against the Burial Bill. INNS OF COURT GOVERNMENT BILL. Sir G. BOWYER, on moving the second reading of this bill, gave a very interesting and erudite account of the origin, progress, and government of the four Inns of Court, comprising the Temple, Lincoln's-inn, and Gray's-inn. He said it had been contended that as these societies were of a voluntary character there should be no interference in their management. The duties of the benchers were very important, because they held the keys of admission to the bar, which was frequently the stepping stone to some of the most elevated political offices. Such being the case, and holding property as they did under the Crown, he considered that these institutions should be amenable to the control of Parliament. He alluded to the case of an eminent barrister who had attained to the dignity of Queen's counsel, and who some time back had been re fused to be called to the bench by the benchers of one of the inns of court. The inns were subject to the visitation of the judges, to whom the gentleman in question appealed, and they investigated his case. He was unable, however, to obtain any redress, for the judges reported that the benchers of the Inner Temple, the institution in question, had a right to regulate the number of those whom they should call to the bench, but at the same time they recommended that they should not exercise their privilege too stringently. No doubt his hon. and learned friend behind him (Mr. Bovill), who had under taken the defence of these inns, would quote the authority of the commissioners who sat in 1845, and like Cicero, pro demo sure, make an eloquent oration on the class of which he was a member. It must be remembered that the com missioners were either benchers, or were expecting to be come so; but, at the same time, they suggested that there might be improvement in the management of these insti tution. He did not for an instant impute to the benchers any improper application of the funds entrusted to their care ; but not only did he object to the arbitrary power of the benchers, but he contended that there had been extrava gance in regard to what were called the embellishments of the Inner Temple. Some of these ornaments, as they were called, were of a most ridiculous character ; and, as an in • stance of this, he alluded to a statue of a knight templar in the Inner Temple, who was represented with a bridle in his right hand and flourishing a sword in his left. (Laughter.) The chief object of this bill was to extend a control over the admission of students to the members of the inns generally, and to give them also other functions which were now monopolised by the benchers. Mr. COLLIER moved, as an amendment, that the bill be read a second time that day three months. [LEFT BITTING.] POLICE-THIS DAY. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. CONSPIRACY OF TUB CABMEN.--Not a day elapses without cabmen being summoned to this court, the com plaint against them not being that of exacting more than their legal fare, but of refusing to take a fare when there is only one person to be carried. Lord Huntingtower sum moned a cabman, named George Harrison Dobbins, badge 10,100, for refusing to take him as a fare, the cabman pre tending not to have seen his lordship, although only ten yards off; but directly after managing to see a party of four persons, and taking them up. Crooke, 'lO6 E, who was a witness for Lord Hunting tower, said the cabmen would not now take single fares, and he heard as many as 100 complaints a-day against them, he being stationed in the Regent-circus. Mr.Tyrwhitt fined the defendant 205., and suspended the cabman's license for 20 days, at the same time stating that there was a most impudent conspiracy existing among the cabmen against the public. Lord Huntingtower having stated that he did not wish the man punished, Mr. Tyrwhitt said that being the case he had no other alternative but to discharge him ;- but at the same time he would state that in all cases of the kind he should deal most severely with the defendants, and revoke their licenses. Another cabman, named James Wanton, badge 1,836, was summoned for refusing to take Mr. John M. Sewell, of 2, St. James's-street. In this case the defendant drove from one side of Regent-street to the other in answer to the complainant's hail, but on the defendant seeing that some ladies who were standing near the complainant were not going in his cab, he drove off. Mr. Tyrwhitt suspended the defendant's licence for. 10 days. DANGEROUS DRIVING.--Mr. Robert Garden, saddler, of 29, Piccadilly, was fined 40s. for being drunk and furiously driving a horse and gig in Piccadilly, as also assaulting Mr. Read, gasfitter, of 2, tiond-strcet,,Golden-square. Mr, Tyrwhitt, in fining the defendant, said it was a most dangerous thing for a man to drive a gig while drunk. ,AST IYIGHT.

As a child he is spoken of as a chatterbox, and boxes of toys, with, of course, a jack-in-the-box, furnish kis amusements. In boyhood, he attains the summit of juvenile felicity, when he becomes possessor of a " boxer" peg-top, obtained perhaps from the facetious uncle who speaks.of his head as a knowledge box. A musical box delights his ear, and for bringing it in his school-box, and making it play when he is at work, he gets a box on both ears. His first start from home is likely to have been made on a box-seat by the side of a driver in a box-cart, using a box-handled whip. For economy he has frequently to box Harry. If he go to sea he must box the compass. In the army lie- will learn how much depends on the cartridge-box, and in the medi cal profession on the pill box, whiltt his reputation as a lawyer will depend on his appeals to the witness-box and the jury box. Success puts him in possession of an opera box, bunting-box, or a shooting-box, near Box-hill or Box moor, reached by railway through the Box tunnel. His respectability (authorities Turncock and Postman) will de pend on the amount he dispenses in Christmas-boxes, and the people's greatest holiday is boxing-night. The ballot box is believed to be the panacea for all political grievances, and the band-box is generally the source of domestic ones. Out of the band-box and the snuff-box man derives his con solation ; the happiness or misery of each day depends on what he finds in his letter-box, and the troubles that per plex his life only cease when he is " boxed up." THE BONAPARTES AND IHE CROWN OF MEXICO." - On the occasion of the death of Joseph Napo. leon Bonaparte, elder brother of the first Emperors written Napoleon, a notice of his life , entitled " Quelque Mots sur Joseph Napoleon Bonaparte," was by the present Emperor of the French, which may be found in vol. ii. of his works, at p. 415. The following extract acquires especial interest, from the peculiar attitude which France occupies just now in relation to the United States and Mexico : " Joseph saw his brother for the last time at Rochefort ; be proposed to deliver himself, in his stead, to the English, who, deceived by the resem blance, would :suppose they were conducting the Emperor to England, whilst he might pass q u i e tl y to the United States. Napoleon refused, and the two brothers bade each other an eternal adieu departed for St. Helens, and the other for the United States and America. Here commences for Joseph a ne w life, which will be variously esti mated, since it cannot escapeentirely the political even to near this dad. He Phila delphia, feeling by which France is d He fixed hi s residence a t Point Breeze, . wh ere he soon acquired the influence and th e esteem which are derived from an illustrious na me, an ample fortune, simple e and prepossessing manners, and a large generosity. " - While Joseph wa s living tranquilly on the shores of the Delaware, thinking only of the well being of those who surrounded him, he re ceived a • propositi on as surprising as it was touch ing. A deputation of Mexicans came to offer crown him th e cro _ of Mexico. The former King o f Naples and Spain replied to the deputation nearly in these terms :—" I have worn two crowns, and would not take a step to wear a third. Nothing can be more flattering to me than to see men, who, when I was at Madrid, were willing to recognise my authority, coming to-day to seek me in my exile to place me at their head ; but I do not believe that the throne which you wish to elevate anew can secure your happiness. Every day that I pass upon the hospitable soil of the United States only serves to convince me of the excellence of repbl can institutions , for America. Cherish them, then, as a precious g ift of Providence. Stay your intes- s eek ti ne quarrels, im itate the United States, and man o f WW2- m ore a mong your own fellow c itizens a . ca pable than myself to play t he great part iugton." I,VEST2dINSTER. THE SWELL MOB AT THE EXHIBITION.--John Clara and Mary Williams, a very fashionably attired man and woman, were placed at the bar charged with attempting to commit robberies at the Exhibition. John Share, 16 X, said—l was on duty at the Exhibi tion yesterday afternoon at a quarter to four, when I saw the prisoners in the North Court. There was a piece being played, accompanied by a flute, and a number of persons listening. I saw the female prisoner, accompanied by the man, walk up by the side of a lady and stand close to the right of her. The man then placed himself behind the female prisoner, and I saw her place her hand in the lady's pocket. After that the female prisoner walked away, followed by the man, who spoke to her. I asked the lady whether she had lost anything, when she replied that she had not, that Fhe had only got a handkerchief in her pocket. The prisoners then followed three ladies, and the female placed herself on the right of one of them, the man, as before, going behind her. The female then plaeed,her hand in another lady's pocket, but got nothing, and left. I then follcwed and took them into custody, when the female dropped a pair of scissors used for cutting ladies' dresses. Female Prisoner—lts a mistake altogether about the scissars, I was picking my nails with them, and they fell out of my hands. Policeman continued—l found £4 in gold and silver upon the male prisoner, and £2 6s. on the female, £2 of which she had in her hand. I found a gold watch and chain upon each of them. Mr. Arnold—Were they wearing them ? Policeman—Yes. Mr. Arnold—Openly ? Policeman—Yes. Mr. Arnold—Why did you take them from them ? Policeman—We always take everything from them. Mr. Arnold—Do you take their hats, their mantles, or their boots ? Policeman—No. Mr. Arnold—Then why take anything else (they wear ? Have you any reason to believe they were siolen ? Policeman—l have not. Mr. Arnold—Give them their watches at once. This was accordingly done, and the prisoners, who are expert old thieves, wero remanded. MARKETS-THIS DAY. MARK LANE. The fresh arrival of English wheat to this morning's market was small. Generally speaking, however, sales pro gressed somewhat slowly ; nevertheless, Monday's advance in the quotations was well maintained. Thera was a fair show of samples of foreign wheat on offer. In most descriptions a moderate retail business wai transacted, and the currencies ruled firm. Floating cargoes' of grain were in moderate request a full quotations. For barley there was a steady demand, and late rates were well supported. The malt trade was steady at quite previous quotations. Good and fine oats met a steady sale at full currencies, but inferior qualities moved off heavily at the late decline. Beans and peas changed hands at the extreme prices of Monday. Flour sold freely, and the quotations had an upward tendency. ARRIVALS THIS 'WEEK. Wheat. Barley. Malt Oats.

The supply of meat is seasonably extensive, for which the trade rules heavy, as follows : Beef, from 2s 8d to 4s Od ; mutton, 3s 2d to 4s 4d ; lamb, 4s 8d to 5s 8d ; veal, 3s 8d to 4s 8d ; and pork, 3s 10d to 4s 10d per 81bs by the carcase. LEEDS, 24th.—There is nothing new to report as to the condition and prospects of the woollen cloth trade here, to-day's markets in both the halls being rather quiet, and the purchasers indicating that the same feeling pervades both the home and the foreign demand. About a late average amount of business was done in light Meltons and Tweeds, with quite as much in velvets and heavy goods, and also in plain cloths. Both wools and cloths keep steady in price. 65i i I 291 9 100 107 k k stool stock 122 k stock 45i 5 stock 914 20 100 li P d I 10 20 131 I 20 I 20 135 i 20 2( 82; all all all all 100 1041 100 100 100 all all 106 5i all all all all 100 all 1 5 1 sli 2 1 Lieutenant-Colonel Frederick Westbrooke, Bombay In fantry.

ELECTION OF SHERIFFS. STATE OF THE POLL-ONE O'CLOCK THIS DAY. Jones 323 Lawrence Nissen 313 94 ANTI-SLAVERY MEETING.—(This Day.) This afternoon a very large meeting assembled at the London Tavern, at which Lord Brougham presided. His lordship, in opening his address, said he was there that day, after sixty years' warfare, to do battle in the cause of the freedom of the slave. He thanked God that the inhuman traffic in England was not now called a trade, but a crime —(cheers)--but, notwithstanding that, Spain, who had received so large an amount of the British tax-payers' money for the suppression of slavery, still con tinued to foster and encourage it in the island of Cuba. To that place all the ruined nobles of Spain were succes sively appointed governor-generals, in order that they might reinstate their shattered fortunes. He asked the meeting whether such a course of proceeding did not merit their utmost condemnation. And he trusted the influence of that great assembly before him that day would tend to bring Spain to a full sense of her obli gations. After the noble lord had concluded a very elo quent speech, a number of resolutions were adopted by the meeting, all expressing the utmost detestation of slavery, THE PROSECUTION OF ESSAYS AND REVIEWs.,, JTJDWIENT THIS DAY. The Office of the Judge promoted by the Bishop of Salis bury v. the Rev. Dr. Rowland Williams, and the Rev. J. Fendall v. the Rev. H. B. Wilson. ry (Before Dr. Lushington, Dean of the Court of Arches,) Dr. Lushiugton having explained the circumstances under which the case came before the Court, and stated that he had advisedly withheld his decision on the admissibility of the articles in the ease of Dr. Williams until the decision of the Privy Council in the case of Mr. Heath had been pronounced. The learned doctor admitted, in both cases, some of the articles, rejected others, and ordered some of the remaining to be reformed, with liberty to appeal against the decision. THE SOCIETY OF ARTS. The Society of Arts gave a dinner last night in the cen tral dining-room at the Exhibition building, which was one of unusual eclat. All the Foreign and Colonial Commis sioners, and a large number of the distinguished strangers now visiting the Exhibition were invited, and most of them were present. Mr. Gladstone took the chair, and among the most notable of the English guests were Lord Lyttel ton, Lord Harris, Vice-Chancellor Wood, the Solicitor- General, Sir W. Dilke, and others. After the healths of the Queen, the Prince of Wales, and the Royal Family had been drunk, The CIIXIMIAN proposed " Prosperity to the Society of Arts." After tracing the history of the society from its foundation, 108 years ago, and pointing out the benefits which it had conferred on the arts, industry, and commerce of the country during its career, Mr. Gladstone said that duly to appreciate its performances we must not look only at the harvest which was now being gathered, but we must go back to the day when the seed was sown—perhaps in wintry weather, and with little encouragement for the results which were to be obtained. The period in which the society was formed was of marked stagna tion in most things pertaining to art and indus try, and we who now contemplate the immense development which had since taken place, and who looked with confidence to the future progress which was to be achieved, ought not to forget what were the earlier difficulties through which the society had passed. (Hear, heaf.) Passing from the earlier history of the society to its present position, Mr. Gladstone next alluded to the loss which it had sustained in the death of the Prince Consort, who, as its President, had been so long and intimately connected with all its transac tions. It was within the bosom of this society that the Prince had happily matured that great and fertile idea, destined to take its place among the great discoveries of the present century, of bringing together the members of the various families of mankind by means of those great ex hibitions of the different objects of their arts and industries. When first the Prince Consort was called on to stand the in public and explain the object with which the Exhibition of 1851 was undertaken, he said it was to become a point from whence all future progress was to be measured—a point at which all past progress could be compared, and to afford an opportunity to all the nations of the civilised world to estimate their comparative merits and defects; to discover what each of them could teach an I what each had to learn, so as to enable each nation to develope still further its pe culiar excellence and to remedy its shortcomings. (Hear, hear.) That the Exhibition of 1851 had served the purpose was proved by the magnificent collection now gathered under that roof. This Exhibition of 1862 shoe, ed how far the Prince Consort was justified in saying that the first Exhibition would be a point from which all future progress would be measured or stimulated, and it contained within itsufficient evidence of progress to warrant the conviction not only that an immense advance had been made by the industry of civilisation in (he limited period of 11 years, but also that still further advance would yet be made from the impetus which had been given from the comparison instituted in 1851. (Hear, hear.) It was not too much to say that these great International Exhibitions were established now as institutions not only of this coun try but of the civilised world, and with the foundation of these institutions will be established for all time to come the illustrious name of the Prince Consort, which on that ground made sure of its immortality. (Cheers.) But those who recognised that title to immortality ought to bear in mind the humble but true and faithful partner of the Prince Consort's labours. The Society of Arts, over which he pre sided, was his partner either in the conception or develop ment :of that idea, and it was entitled to the second place and to no small share of the honour of that g reat conception. To have had a share in so great a work, and to have con tributed to the gathering toget her of the gradt s pectacle which some sixty or seventy thousand peoplehad at come that day to visit, dispensed with all attempts laboured eulogium. Another recommendation of the society was the efforts it had mad e for the e d at uca on ti e on tim o e f the working classes—a point in which we very much behindhand, but in which we w make great advances. For , as Enghinenewieerbeeginning to no point could It n eeded only a visit d w e h ri a v t ed ad f v ro a m nta th ge e be of greater importance than this. to the French Court, for instance, the actual generation.

The right hal , gentleman concluded, amid loud cheers, by calling on the company to drink prosperity to a society which had done so much to promote undertakings which would teach the nations of the world to know one another, and to accelerate the arrival of the time when peace would remain among men, and the arts of strife and discord be no more learnt. Sir T. PHILLIPS, the vice-president, returned thanks, and concluded by proposing " The health of the Foreign Visitors." M. MICHEL CHEVALIER, who was very loudly cheered on rising, returned thanks on behalf of the foreign visitors, who, he said, had been universally delighted with the wel come they had received here, and who had not failed to learn many valuahlo lessons from what they had seen in this country. The CHAIRMAN next proposed "The Health of the Royal Commissioners of 1862," in returning thanks for which Sir WEIcTWORTH Danum said that,whatever mistakes the Com missioners might have fallen into, they had, at least, pro duced an Exhibition with which, after all his experience in 1851, he was confident there had never been anything seen .. at all comparable.
