s . <. MON KET. CITY NEWS-YESTERDAY. In the Stock Exchange the supply of money has increased, and the rate for loans on Government Securities from day to day has declined to 1* to 2 per cent, The silver market is extremely flat, and the quo tation nominal, at ss. id. per ounce. It appears by the American advices today that the price of gold at New York has risen to 41 per cent. prem., and the exchange on London to 1154. A decided advance took place to-day in many kinds of American securities. The demand is en tirely in answer to the higher prices received from New York. English holders are selling, while the American speculators continue to buy largely, thus promoting the rise in the exchange, and the .conse quent efflux of gold from New York to England. The weather being fine, business in the wheat market to-day was not so brisk as on Monday, but there was no change in price. The traffic returns in course of publication this week will mostly show an increase, as they include the receipts of Whitsun week this year as against an ordinary week last year. The London and North Western return shows an increase of £10,034, which is considered good; the :Lancashire and Yorkshire an increase of £3,000, which is not re garded favourably; the Great Northern, an increase of .£253; and the Great Western, an increase o £1,620. The last price from Paris this evening was 68f. 35c., again showing no alteration. The shipments of specie by the Ceylon will be £410,251, of which £399,586 is silver and £10,665 is gold ; to Alexandria £l,OOO in gold, to Ceylon £3,000 in gold, to India £6,665 in gold and £27,020 in silver, and for China and the Straits £372,566 in silver. The corn market this morning was not quite so firm as on Monday. About £15,000 in gold was taken to the Bank to-day. The activity in the cotton market caused by the accounts from America and India and China still continues, and a further advance has taken place to day, the quotations being now id. per lb. above thosfi current at the close of last last week. The accounts from the Paris Bourse mentions that the public continue to invest steadily in Rentes and also in Italian Five per Cents., and that the cause of the prevailing flatness of prices consists in the uncertainties regarding the expenditure for the war in Mexico and the anxiety which always begins to be entertained about this period with regard to the harvest. CITY NEWS-THIS DAY. CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. The Ceylon, leaving to-morrow with the Indian and China mails, will take out £410,250 in specie. The Liverpool cotton market yesterday continued to present a. very excited appearance, and 15,000 bales wer e disposed of at a further slight advance. The last week's railway receipts, ascertained up to tials day, are in round figures as under : Great Western 1862. 1861.186 60,286 North-Western South-Western ..........,, 23,8252 5,978 25,729 Brighton Midland 41,653 37,499 ,South-Eastern Great Northern Lancashire and Yorkshire Bristol an d E xe ter 1f 6,939 6,672 orth-Eastern .. 37,100 41,228 Eastern Counties Edinburgh and Glasgow Glasgow and South-Western Great Western of Canada These returns are, in most instances, of a satisfac tory character.

Very little interest has been manifested today in the weekly meeting of the Bank of England directors. A week ago their proceedings were watched with some anxiety, because it was pre sumed that a change in the discount regulations Was imminent on account of the large withdrawals of sovereigns for transmission to Turkey. The out flow, however, suddenly ceased, and since then the movement has been in an opposite direction, a large proportion of the late Australian arrivals having been disposed of to the authorities. The last balance -sheet exhibited a !decrease of £453,623 in the stock of bullion, being a smaller diminution than most persons interested in the subject had anticipated, and it is not improbable that the return completed this afternoon for publication to-morrow will show a reactionary tendency, because as much as £220,000 has been sent in to the establishment, While the contraction of the circulation, usual at this period of the year, will no doubt have econo mised the supplies of coin in the hands of the public. To-day the market presents a very easy appearance, and instances are recorded of bills of a superior class being negotiated at 21 per cent., but 2i in the general charge for three months bills. The English Stock Market to-day has presented a firmer appearance, and Consols are nearly per cent, higher, viz., 911 92 for money, and 92 I for the 10th proximo. Speculation, however quiet, indicates an impression on the part of the operators that prices will improve rather than otherwise Owing to the abundance of money, and the tendency to accumulation in the bullion of the Bank of England. The New Threes and the Reduced have improved to 911 1. Exchequer Bills remain at 3s. to 6s. prem.; Bank Stock is flat, at 234 and 235 f ; but the India 5 per Cent. Loan has advanced to 1071 108. In the Foreign Market Mexican Stock has expe rienced a considerable decline, dealings having taken place at 281, the latest price being 281 29. Most of the other securities, how ever , are we ll sup r;z:r3teld. Egyptian Scrip has further advanced to dniaBnPBr2ein; Moorish 6 per C en t s. are 951; Sar- Spaniah Deferred 44/ • l9: ditto Passive ; ditto C ert i ficates have improved to 81 9; And More t o 23 4 24, More activity has prevailed American Securities during t he th e p ast week, and Mr. 14 market fo r s_. F. Satter prices have tended up wards. thwaite, in his weekly report, states that "the markets for American securities in London, to-day, have been characterised by unwonted activity, the —........„..... news received by Hibernian having been of that nature as to induce extensive purchasing for ship ment to New York; in fact, the market has been completely stripped of all bonds offering at anything like late rates. The plethora of the American Money Market, with the inflation of the currency, had caused an unusual speculation in stocks and shares of both fired and doubtful value; and not withstanding the advance in the rate of exchange to 115 k, and the increasing efflux of gold, specula tors seemed evidently bent upon forcing prices still higher. The mrrkets close firm, with an active in quiry for all descriptions of bonds." Business in the Railway Share Market has exhi bited slight symptoms of improvement, although there is little change of importance to record in prices. South-Western and North-Eastern (Ber wick) have advanced about 55., and North - Western, 10s. ; Caledonian, however, have declined 15s. ; Midland, as. ; and Norfolk, 10s. For the Foreign and Colonial lines there has been only a limited inquiry. Bahia and San Francisco remain steady at 17t ; Sambre and Meuse have declined to 107 g ; Grand Trunk of Canada, to 23; and Great Western of Canada, to 111; East Indian are steady at 1061 ; and Great Indian Peninsula, at 104 to 1041 ; Bombay and Baroda are very flat at 1024.

(Before Mr. Moody.) NOVEL AND IMPORTANT QUESTION UNDER TRE PAWN BROKERS' ACT.—HILTON Y. MALLAKS, This was an action to recover £lO damages for the alleged wrongful detention of a gun, pledged at defendant's shop, plaintiff being a baker of Islington, and defendant a pawnbroker of the Caledonian -road. Mr. Jay called the plaintiff, from whose testimony it ap. peared that on the Ist March, 1861, a gun was pledged at the defendant's shop for £2. On the 2d March, 1862, plaintiff called and inquired for his gun, tendering pia c i. pal and interest. Defendant said he was busy, but the gwi was all right, and if plaintiff sent in a day or two he co u ld have it. Plaintiff did call again as requested, but was again put off until a future occasion. The third time plaintiff called defendant said, "Oh I I've sold your gun by pu blic auction for £2 17s, 6d., here is your balance." pl a intiff declined to accept the money, and brought th e present action. Mr, Kemp having cross-examined the plaintiff, mo iled de.. fendamt, who said the plaintiff did not call upon bim until after the sale by auction, and he never promi se d to save the gun. Mr. Jay—lt is difficult to trace these thing s , but I hav e seen the gun this morning. Defendant—Yes, I bought it in for 42175, 6c19 and sold it privately for 43 10s. Mr. Jay—Then it was not sold b y auction at all ? Defendant—l bought it in. His Honour was clearly of opinion that plaintiff was en titled to damages under the circumstances, and he awarded L 5 with costs. CRIMINAL COURT-THIS DAY. OLD COURT. (Before 11ir. Justice ergoPtort.)

Early on Monday, keepers were out on the moors in all directions, to ascertain as far as possible the conditi on o f th e grouse after the heavy rain falls and cold weather of the previous fortnight. Their reports are more encouraging than was anticipated. On the low grounds the prospects are encouraging. Blackoock are numerous in most of their haunts, and on the covers partridge s promise to be abundant. In the Puie woods the espereailzi e is somewhat numerous and in a thriving con- Hares are plentiful.—Scotinian. LINES LEASED AT FIXED RENTALS. Railways. p a i d Leasing Closing Business Co. a Price.

THIRD EDITION. SUN OFFICE, SEVEN O'CLOCK. ASCOT RACES...THIS DAY. (FROM 017 R OWN CORRESPONDENT.) The attendance of visitors to-day at Ascot Heath exceeded all expectations, and despite the absence of the Queen the crushing and crowding in the Grand Stand enclosure was as uncomfortable as on all former occasions. The day was gloriously fine, and erratic husbands who had not taken their wives to Epsom found no excuse in the weather not to fulfil their promise to accom pany them to Ascot. Windsor was, perhaps, less lively than usual, and, as a natural consequence, the Hymen less extortionate in their demands; but under the circumstances, the "harvest" must have, been above an average: The Great Western Railway afforded ample facilities for the residents of the west end of the town to make a trip to Ascot, and their arrangements were of the most satisfactory description. The Lendon and South Western, how ever, had the great bulk of the traffic, and nothing could exceed the regularity with which train after train was despatched. Ladies this morning took their seats with a■ much ease as they would at the Opera, and at the close of the journey they emerged from the carriages looking as fascinating and attractive as if they had but that moment left their boudoir. From ten o'clock this morning until about noon the platform at the Waterloo -station was thronged with people, the variety of colour of the ladies' dresses glistening like a tulip-bed of different forms and shades. The officials of the company attended to the comforts of the voyageurs in person, and nothing but commendation was heard at the ar rangements, which were carried out with the greatest order. The course at Ascot never appeared more crowded, and the Grand Stand was so fully at tended that it was with difficulty and no small dexterity that any one was enabled to elbow or pass from end to end. Disconsolate ladies had no resting-place; they could neither see nor be seen, for they appeared completely hidden in the mass of people who swarmed in every direction. The raised seats in the balcony and every avail able space from which a view could be obtained was occupied some time before the commencement of the proceedings, and the scene presented by the disclosure was picturesque beyond description. The principal feature of interest in the ring was the advancement of Carbineer to the rank of first favourite, and desertion of Asteroid by many of his most ardent admirers since his running on Tuesday. Many attempts were made to restore him to something like his former position, but the sup porters of Carbineer were firm in their selection, and 6 to 4 was freely taken about him.

The demand for cotton continues unabated, and this day's business exceeds 16,000 bales-8,000 on speculation and for export. Prices Id. per pound higher than yesterday's rates.

THE EASTERN FISHERIES —There is at last some improvement to note in the mackerel fishery now being pro secuted off the eastern coast. At Great Yarmouth a fair quantity of fine fish have been landed during the last few days, one boat having brought in 800 fish, while others have landed 200 to 500 each. Price's have ranged from 35s to 4 5 s per 120 for fresh fish, and 25s to 30s per 120 for overday lots, The prospects of the fishery have also improved at Lowe stoft, one boat haying made a catch of no less than 1,700 fish.

The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at the usual hour. Lord OVERSTONE presented a petition from the gold and silver smiths and porcelain dealers of the metropolis, praying that their productions might be duly considered before the Copyright (Works of Art) Bill was disposed of. The petition was referred to the committee at present sitting on the bill. MEXICO. Earl RUSSELL drew the attention of their lordships to the position of affairs in Mexico. He said he wished to correct Borne misapprehension which existed with respect to a convention signed for a satisfaction of the British claims in Mexico, The treaty, it was true, had been signed, but as it was found it had reference to another treaty, by which the Mexican Government gave certain considerations to the United States for a loan to be raised in the country. Her Majesty's Government thinking such a convention would lead to great difficulty, had determined not to ratify it. He had also to refer to another circumstances which had created an unfavourable impression in Paris, viz., that the British troops had been withdrawn, and that the French troops had been left alone to meet the difficulties. The fact was, a naval force hal been sent on board, of which there were 700 marines, but as there was no fear of a collision at Vera Cruz, those troops were removed, it never being intended that they should march up the country. When the rupture, with the French on one side, and the English and Spanish on the other, the officer in command determined to haul down his flag. There never had been any British land troops in Mexico, therefore it was a misapprehension to say they had been withdrawn, and there was no foundation to the statements that such a proceeding took place. The Earl of MALMESBRY said it was most important that the impression, that the French had received a reverse in consequence of the desertion of the English Govern ment, should be removed as speedily as possible. The Earl of CARNARNQN asked whether there would be. any objection to lay the correspondence bearing on the subject on the table of the house Earl RUSSELL said he would give the papers on the subject as soon as possible. [LEFT SITTING.] HOUSE OF COMMONS—Tras EVENING. The SPEAKER took the chair at 12 o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The following bills were read a third time and passed : Briton Ferry Dock and Railway—Kensington Station and North and South Louden Junction Railway—North Bri tish lasurance Company—and West Shropshire Mineral Railway. Mr. C, FORSTER moved :—" That the standing orders, Nos. 181, 182, and 210, be suspended in the case of the Glasgow Barony Parochial Board (recommitted) Bill; and that the report from the committee be considered to morrow, provided the amended piints shall have been deposited with the doorkeepers this day," which was agreed to. PETITIONS. Several petitions were presented against the Burial Bill, in favour of the Sale of Spirits Bill from licensed victual lers in the provinces, in favour of the Permissive Bill, against the order of the Lord Chancellor respecting the printing of papers to be used in Chancery proceedings from the law writers of the metropolis, &c., &c. On the motion of Mr. GREGORY, a return of all the stipendiary magistrates in Ireland over the age of 60 ; of all those incapacitated by bodily infirmity or otherwise from active duty, and the districts of the different stipendiary magistrates, was ordered. IMPORTS FROM FRANCE, On the motion of Mr. PACKE, a statement, showing the respective value of tha merchandise imported into this country for each of the months of the years 1860, 1861, and 1862, was ordered. CAPTAIN SHERRARD OSBORNE, &e. Lord R. MONTAGU asked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether it was true that the ser vices of Capt. Sherrard Osborne, or of any other officer of her Majesty's navy, are to be placed at the disposal of the Chinese Government ; whether such officer would be paid by the Chinese Government, and whether he would, at the same time, retain his commission and receive pay as an officer in her Majesty's navy : and, whether one or more gunboats were to be lent to the Chinese Government for any purpose they may think proper. Mr. LAYARD said that an application had been made for gunboats by the agents of the Chinese Government, and the subject was under the consideration of Government.

The whole of the battering wall, about 30 feet in height and 6 feet in thickness, which had been erected with the best available materials, together with the massive piles of timber placed as shores along the roadway, extending from the end. of the tunnel to the corner of Vine-street, about 100 yards in length, is lying indiscriminately in a heap of rains. The accident is supposed to have arisen from the deep cutting necessary for the railway loosening the earthworks at the sides of the sewer, which at this spot runs close by the tunnel, causing the crown of the sewer to collapse. The great volume of water always pouting through the sewer after heavy rains was thus enabled to make its way under the foundations of the battering wall, and the work of this being quite new, and- the soil around being of a light loamy description , it soon becam e a prey to the great body of water every minute accumulating. The gangs of navvies who were set to work yes- terday to form a new trench for the purpose of diverting the waters of the Fleet sewer into the course of the old ditch, which still remains undis turbed, continued their labours during the night, and it is expected they will be able to open a commu nication at each end during the day. Until this is done there is no safety for that portion of the arch work still standing, or for the arch connecting the railway between Ray-street and Crawford-passage. During the night great quantities of earth, brickwork, and timber weee constantly falling. Immediately on the spot where the accident has taken place was a few years since situated the burial ground of St. Peter's, which was removed consequent upon the making of the new street. The bodies then remaining in the ground were collected and placed in a mausoleum erected on the spot in an excavation purposely made. Last night this building was struck by the falling tim bers of the railway, and the upper portions of the walls shattered to pieces, while the lower part was flooded by the water from the sewer to the depth of several feet, and many of the bodies, or what re mained of them, were washed out into the open excavation, presenting a most sickening sight. At the time of high tide in the river Thames the water comes up this sewer as high as the end of Ray-street, forcing back the regular water of the sewer, and this being the case at 12 o'clock this day, the water was pouring into the tunnel at the rate of many thousand gallons per minute, and at that time it was estimated that there were at least 10ft depth of water in the tunnel as high up as King's-cross, and which it is feared by its force will materially affect the founation of the line. As soon as the navvies are able to divert the course of the water, pumping engines will be set to work to clear the tunnel and excavations of the water, as until this is done it will be impossible either to recommence the work destroyed, or clear away the debris. Mr. Jay, the contractor, with a large staff of engi neers and others, has been upon the ground since the accid en t,an d they all have exerted themselves as much as possible to prevent any further destruction of property. The chief loss will fall upon the con tractor, although the railway company, from the delay which will be occasioned in the opening of the line, will also suffer to some extent. MARKETS-THIS DAY. TO CANADA. Col. W. STUART asked the Secretary of State for War whether a free passage would be granted to the wives and families of officers who were sent out to Canada during the past winter, or any other allowance be made to enable them to join their husbands in Canada ? Sir G. LEWIS said that arrangements were being made by Government for the conveyance of the wives and fami lies of such officers to Canada. HUSSAR REGIMENTS. Sir A. AGNEW asked the Secretary of State for War why the officers of the 19th, 20th, and 21st Hussar®, and of the regiments of Infantry from the 101st to the 108th in clusive, were not gazetted ; it being understood that all these regiments are embodied, and that tho officers of most of them have been appointed, and have performed the :r regimental duties for a considerable time. Sir CI, LE WIS said that the officers in question could not be gazetted until the rolls had been received in this coun try. CONTRACTS FOR FORTIFICATIONS. Sir A. WILLO UGHBY asked the Secretary of State for War, what amount of public charge was created by con tract at the fifty-five places stated in Parliamentary paper, No. 276, of this session, where contracts on account of for tifications have been made : And, whether he will place a document on the table of the house, showing the amount of such charge under contract at each of the fifty-five places ? Sir G. LEWIS said that if the hon. baronet would move for a return on the subject, as the more regular course, he would lay it on the table. BARRACK MASTERS. Colonel FRENCH asked the Secretary of State for War whether, in the revised warrant for barrack-masters now under consideration, would the officers whose ages vary from sixty-five to eighty, and who might under its provi sions be expected to retire, be included in the improved retiring regulations. Sir G. LEWIS said the subject was under considers. ion, but the repoort on the subject was not yet prepared. THE TREATY WITH JAPAN. Mr. WHITE asked the Under-Secretary for Foreign Affairs, now that the Japanese Ambassadors had l e ft th e coo country, n rthe w T h r e e th aty with er b.ewould Japan in had form been the house f the postponed.carry out Mr. LAYARD said that the Government had come to the determination to defer the carrying out of the sth article of the treaty, relative to the opening of the ports, for five years after Januaz 1863, but the other provisions would come into operation without delay. THE MERCHANT SHIPPING ACTS, &C., AMENDMENT BILL. The helm then proceeded to the consideration of this bill. Mr. LINDSAY moved the following clause :—" The masters and owners of all ships, or of any classes of ships, shall not be obliged to employ pilots in any pilotage dis trict, or shall not be obliged to pay for pilots when not em- ploying them in any district, or in any part of any pilotage district." Mr. BENTINCK said he agreed to a considerable ex tent in the opinion of the hon. member (Mr. Lindsay), and requested that the bill did not go much further; but he be lieved the ultimate effect of the measure would be to lead to the adoption of the voluntary instead of the compulsary principle, After some remarks from Mr. Horsfall, Mr. Hodgson, and Mr. Clay, T . .. ni !l c . aca G o.r lT ti S ny, ON tr, s cni ai l l p t , i s i t a . t nn th d e li G n oze m rnm adn en s t om ha e d a g l : e v r e a n . tions in reference to the previous system which pre vailed. They had removed the enforcement of the practice of compulsory pilotage in: the case :of: vessels availing themselves of harbours of refuge. They had taken, powers also of altering pilotage districts, and establishing pilotage authorities where they were required. Ile hoped the house would consent to take this bill as it was, and that the hon. member would not press his clause. Mr. LINDSAY withdrew the clause. An additional clause, moved by Mr. AYRTON, was negatived without a division. Another clause, moved by Mr. LAIRD, was opposed by Mr. M. GIBSON as not being of a practical character, LBPT SITTING.

C ar t er J onas. Th ere was a very large attendance of breed ers f rom almost a ll par t s of England, may be regarded at the original home of the Southdown, being powerfully represented, Ail° buyers were also present from France, Germany, Spain, Sweden, and America. The lots disposed of coaaprited 148xams and 289 ewes, and the former realised altogether £2,711 25,, and the latter £2,209 Gs., making the total proceeds of the day £5,720 Sc. Last year, when the first portion of the flock was disposed of, 967 animals realised £10,926 6s. 6d., so that this great flock, which is now scattered throughout E ng land, Europe, and, indeed, it may be said, the world, has altogether produced to Mr. Webb the satisfactory sum of £16,646 14s. 6d. The highest priced ram yesterday was taken by Sir T. B. Lennard, but most of the owes which provoked any competition ,were purchased for exportation to Spain and Germany, while a few lots were taken for America.
