MONEY MARKET. CITY NE W S-SATURDAY. According to the private telegrams this afternoon from, New York by the Europa, the New York stock-market had experienced a further average advance of 1 per cent., but as the premium on gold had at 4he same time risen to and the rate of exchange to 115*, the movement is of no actual importance. The introduction of the. anticipated bill for a fresh issue of £30,000,000 of inconvertible p. per is already announced. - Large operations in cotton, for home consumption, export, and speculation, continue to be reported from Liverpool. The transactions of the present week have been to the extent of 124,000 bales at Liverpool, and 18,000 bales at London, and the in terest in the question of the future supply is daily becoming more intense, The total stock of raw cotton at Liverpool this time last year was 1,107,000 bales ; the present stock is 260,000 bales. The quantity afloat from the East Indies to Liverpool this time last year was 246,000, against 220,000 afloat at the present time, and the reported quantity afloat from America last year at this time was 125,000 against none at the present time. France, it appears, is velatively even worse off than this country, as her stock this time last year was 332,000, and her present amount is only 44,000. It is assumed that the weekly consumption for the United Kingdom, at the reduced rate of working is still 30,000 bales, and we have also been exporting weekly at the rate of 14,000 bales. The excitement in tho Liverpool cotton market continues. The transactions to-day were to the extent of no less than 20,000 bales, and Surat sorts Were quoted at a fresh rise of Id. to id. per lb. The scrip of the new loans has experienced little change. Turkish was quoted 31 to 3i prem.; Egyptian, 21 to 21 prem.; and Russian, d to fi prem. Proposals have been issued for subscriptions for £BOO,OOO preference 9 per cent. shares of the Varna kiilway Company. The total capitalof the company is £2,000,000 (X 1,600,000 in shares and £400.000 in debentures) on which the Turkish Government guarantee 6 per cent. The increased rate offered on the present shares will be made up by an arrange ment, under which the other shareholders forego 3 per cent. of their guarantee. The line is 116 miles, and will run from Rustchuk, on the Danube, to Varna, on the Black Sea, and thus by connecting with the existing steam lines on - those waters will complete the route from London to Constantinople, and reduce the distance between the two places to four and a half days. The part of Bulgaria to be traversed by the railway is rich and well populated, and the line will also attract the traffic of Wallachia, while it is also of importance in its bearing on our prospects of future communication with the East, by the valley of the Euphrates. In the market for bank shares the only change 'AS a rise in Ottoman. Abgut £56,000 in bar gold was bought by the Bank to-day. According to an official statement just furnished the importations of wheat and flour into this country in the nine months from the Ist of September last to the Ist of the present month amounted to 4,919,344 quarters of wheat and 4,236,456 cwt. of flour. Thirty-five per cent. of the wheat and 74 per cent. of the flour were obtained from the United States.' The aggregate value of these importations was about £17,000,000 or £18,000,000, and of that of the American portion about £8,000,000. In the same period we have imported from the United States about £3,000,000 worth of Indian corn. The Turkish Bondholders' Committee have ascer tained that the sum of £65,000 is in the hands of the Ottoman Bank in London, on account of the dividend on the Turkish loan of 1858. Holders of paid-up scrip for £lOO (in exchange for which bonds are not yet ready) in the New Turkish Loan are to lodge it at the Ottoman Bank, in order to claim the dividend due the Ist July. The rates of discount are sustained with more difficulty now that the bullion movement has be come favourable. Transactions in good short bills take place at 2f, to 21- per cent. At Paris to-day the Three per Cent. Renter opened at 68 30, and closed at the same quota tion, both for money and the account, being about the same as yesterday. We are informed that the United Kir gdom Elec tric Telegraph Company's bill, which has been before Viscount Enfield's committee since Tuesday last, has been passed without any material altera tion in the clauses. It is said that a Portuguese loan for about X 2,000,000 sterling will be introduced here in the course of next week. CITY NEWS---THIS DAY . CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. During the past week more activity prevailed in several branches of business throughout the manu facturing districts. There was an improved demand for both cloths and yarns at Manchester, and prices have shown an 'upward tendency.

At Bradford, Halifax, and Huddersfield, a steady busin ess h as b een d on e in seasonable goods, and orders on French account have slightly increase& The hosiery and lace trades of Leicester and Nottingham have continued active, but in the hardware districts, viz., at Birmingham, Sheffield, and Wolverhampton, little change of im portance can be recorded.

Smith and John Hills, was charged with marrying Eliza Salt, his former wife, Elizabeth Perrier being still alive. The prisoner, who is a tailor, appears to have been travelling about the country for some years entrapping young girls, and in one instance a widow, into marriage, and suddenly leaving them after possessing himself of all the money and pro perty he could obtain. In 1853 the prisoner ob tained employment as a tailor in Bath, and took lodgings at the house of Mrs. Perrier, who kept a greengrocers shop in that city. After being there a few weeks he made the landlady an offer of mar riage, which she accepted, and the ceremony was solemnised on Aug. 7,1863. The parties continued to live together about a month or six weeks, when Mrs. Perrier was taken ill, and the prisoner then pretended that he had received a letter to the effect that he and his two brothers had become entitled to a legacy of £5OO each in consequence of the death of a relative, and requesting his presence in London. In order to raise money for his journey, he disposed of all the furniture and other pro perty which he had acquired by his wife, and then left Bath, and nothing more was heard of his whereabouts until five years ago, when he appears to have settled down for a time at Wantage. While living at Wantage he became acquainted with a servant girl, named Salt, to whom he paid his addresses, and whom he after wards married in the name of George Smith. After living with this woman about eleven weeks, during which period he spent what little money she had managed to save by her industry, he suddenly de camped. After the lapse of considerable time, the prisoner was next heard of at St. Helens, Lanca shire, where on the 18th of January last, under the ass.imed name of John William Scott, he married a young woman named Maria Isabella Dunn, who brought him £lOO. On the 2d of May last he suddenly quitted the place, tak ing with him a gold watch, furniture, all the money he could obtain, and even the ring off the finger of the poor girl whom he had so recently duped. He next took up his quat ters in Oxford,tnd speedily in sinuated himself into the good graces of a maid ser vant, who was about to leave her placeto marry him, when his career was brought to a sudden termination in a somewhat curious manner. On the 25th of May, Eliza Salt, who happened to be residing in Oxford, in service, was present at the assembling of the Oxford militia in Broad-street, when she observed the prisoner among the crowd. He ma naged, however, to evade her on this occasion, but on the following Sunday she again saw him, in company with the young woman to whom he was paying his addresses. After watching them for some time they separated, the girl returning to her home, and the prisoner walking up St. Giles's, whither he was followed by Salt, who gave him into custody. The prisoner was committed for trial. VARIETIES. What age is the most deceiving P—The sausage. WANTED.—An artist to draw a badger ; also a few ac tive hands to collect the days as they break; persons of a mournful disposition will be preferred. A man whom Dr. Johnson once reproved for following a useless and demoralising business, said in excuse, "You know, doctor, that I must live." The brave old hater of everything mean coolly replied, "I cannot see the least necessity for that:; To act with common sense according to the moment is the best wisdom I know, and th© best philosophy to do one's duties, take the world as it comes, submit respectfully to one's lot, bless the goodness that has given us so much happiness with it, whatever it is, and despise affectation. — Horace Walpole. It is said that General Forey, without being pre cisely commissioned. to supersede the French envoy in Mexico, M. de Saligny, is armed with diplomatic powers which will enable him to dictate to the civil ambassador. Admiral Julien de la Graviere, now in Paris, will, it is said, go out again in command of the expeditionary fleet against Mexico. SINGLE SHAFTS 1N COAL MINES.—The Govern ment Bill laid before the House of Commons on MOnday proposes to enact that, after the passing of the bill (except in merely searching for minerals), it shall not be lawful for the owner of a new mine, or old mine the working of which shall be begun afresh, and after 1864, it shall not be lawful for the owner of an existing mine, to work the same with out two shafts or outlets, separated by natural strata of not less than 10 feet, and affording distinct means of egress. Any special claim for exemption is to be referred to arbi tration. The annual fish dinner to the Fox Club will take place on Saturday, the 28th instant, at the Trafalgar, Greenwich. BRIGHTON TESTIMONIAL TO LORD RANELAGH.— A large and influential meeting was held at the Brighton Town Hall, on Thursday night, at which Mr. Alderman Burrows presided, for the purpose of taking into considera tion awl determining on the best means of applying the amount already subscribed in Brighten, and that which may be hereafter contributed, to the contemplated testimo nial to Viscount Ranelagh. The chairman explained the object of the meeting, which was to pay a compliment to Lord Ranelagh for his conduct in relation to the volunteer sham fight h e ld on B r i g ht on D owns, i n 1861 an d 1862, a nd Mr. mitte e ttitn l in hrt.eof Stanford having put the first resolution, namely, "That inion of the meeting it was advisable that a com should b e f orme d to cons id er t h e proper steps t o b e taken inn or r r e y fereneeto the subj e ct u n d e r consideration." Cap his lord s hi p in seconded the mo ti on. Thi s gen tl eman a lluded in forcibl e terms to the zealous and di s tinguished services of ghctoounnexion with the volunteer cause, and as a native of Bri argued ,ta that a testi mon i a l wor th y o f the oc casion kin sho u ld be pr g great int eres t i n the local affairs of the tow n , he that a sword iof honeosuernted to his l or d a bi p , an d su ggested sent Ca vifuotueldd be the p roper thi ng to pre . ptan Merry pointed out to th e mee ti ng th a t so long ago as 1845 L or d Ranelagh had written a pamphlet en titled " Observations'on the state of our National present that a volunteer Defences ;" in which his lordshippresn Downsergedd to L or d R ane l ag h' s ' force should be formed.

The resolution to carry passed unanimously , and several ot her appropriatnre speeches having having been ma de, a vote of thanks aas carried to th e chairman, and the me etin g ad j ourned. A FEMALE CAPTAIN O F BA NDITS.__A letter from Madrid, in the Debotts, says:—"A woman known as the She Wolf' has been the terror of Gallicia and the neighbouring provinces for the last 20 years. Always on horseback, and followed by a small number of bandits, she was at the head of all the robberies and murders committed in that part of Spain. Woe to the travellers and muleteers who crossed her path ? Any attempt at resistance was sure to be punished by death, which was often accompanied by the most atrocious tortures. Josepha Perez, as the woman was named, committed the most revolting acts of ferocity on her victims. Often she has had to defend herself against armed forces, and the advantage has always been on her side until now, when the Mayor of San 'Jacob° de Comphs . tells, who was in search of a criminal, discovered the cave which served as a place of concealment to the She Wolf,' and in which she was arrested with one of her accomplices."

The leading country markets, held on Saturday, were scantily supplied with wheat, for which the trade ruled firm, and in several instances prices advanced is per quar ter. All kinds of spring corn fully supported previous currencies, and flour changed hands somewhat freely on rather higher terms. The French markets continue dull, but in the north of Europe rather more firmness has been observed in the wheat trade,oand prices have had an upward tendency. At New York the market both for wheat and flour is less active. Very small supplies of English produce were received up to our market last week. The imports from abroad were 20,316 quarters of wheat, 11,891 barley, 50,938 oats, 4,300 beans, 4,386 linseed, 1,108 rapeseed, 320 maze, 305 sundry seeds, 197 Sacks and 9,638 barrels of fliur. A very limited supply of home-grown wheat was received fresh up to this morning's market, both from Essex and Kent, for the most part in tolerably dry condition. The trade, however, for all qualities, was devoid of animation; nevertheless, a clearance was effected at the close of busi ness, and, compared, with Monday last, vices exhibited a rise of fully is per quarter. Millers appeared determined no:, to effect sales beyond their actual requirements, and there was an almost total absence of speculation in the trade. The show of samples of foreign wheat was tolerably ex tensive ; generally speaking, the demand ruled steady, and in most transactions an improvement of is to 2s per quarter was obtained. The business doing, however, was, for the most part, in retail. _ _ . , Floating cargoes of grain were in fair request, and the currencies had an upward tendency. _ Th9re was a fair supply of foreign barley on the stands, the receipts of English produce were much restricted. Both grinding and distilling sorts met a steady sale, and prices were well supported. In malt a fair average business was transacted at full quotations. Very few samples of English oats were on offer, but there was a large show of foreign qualities. Good and fine qualities were in fair request at full currencies, otherwise the trade was dull at a reduction of 6d per qr. Foreign beans were in fair supply, and the market for them was steady, at full prices. English parcels were scarce, and quoted as dear as on Monday last. The market was very scantily supplied with peas, for which the trade ruled firm at full quotations. Flour moved off somewhat freely, and the quotations were on the advance, especially as regards American barrels, which were 6d dearer. CURRENCY PER IMPERTAL MEASURE.

There was a full average supply of foreign stock on offer in to-day's market, but its general quality was very middling. Sales progressed slowly, and prices had a droop ing tendency. From our own grazing districts, as well as from Scot land, the receipts of beasts fresh up this morning were only moderate, the time of year considered, but their general quality was tolerably good. Compared with last week there was less activity in the beef trade, and in some in s►ancea prices gave way 2d per 81bs. The best Scots and crosses realised 4s 8d per 81bs. The arrivals from Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cam bridgeshire comprised 2,000 Scots, shorthorns, and crosses; from other parts of England, including Lincolnshire, 1,050 various breeds ; from Scotland, 300 Scots and crosses ; and from Ireland, 20 oxen and heifers. The general quality of the sheep exhibited was somewhat superior, but the supply of most breeds was large. Primo Downs and half-breds changed hands steadily, at full rates. Otherwise the mutton trade was in a sluggish state, and pricer were 2d per 81bs lower than on this day se'nnight. The top figure was 5s per 81bs. Owing to the unseasonable weather the lamb trade was in a sluggish state, at Friday's decline in the quotations, which ranged from 5s to 7s per 81bs. The supply of lambs was large. Amongst it were 100 from the Isle of Wight, and 430 from Ireland. Calves were in moderate supply and slow request, at late rates. The top price was 5s per Sibs. We have to report a dull inquiry for pigs, at previous currencies. Per Slb, to s e. d. s. d.

Since our last report there has been a somewhat improved demand for English woo], and, in ssmo instances, a slight advance has taken place in the quotation. Colonial and f o reign parcels., however, have commanded very little at tention. Last week's imports were 1,147 bales from Laun ceston, 1,996 from Melbourne, 1,711 from New Zealand, and 694 from Algoa Bay. BOROUGH HOP. The business doing in our market is very moderate. Prices have undergone scarcely any change since we last wrote, and good and fine qualities may be considered firm. The plantation accounts are less favourable. Mid and East Rents 126 s to 168 s per cwt. Weald of Rents l2os 135 s ~ Sussex loss 130 s ~ BOROUGH AND SPITALPIRLDS. The supply of old potatoes is very small, and prices must be considered nominal. New produce is in fair supply and moderate request, at 180 s to 200 s for Essex Ware, 1608 to 200 s for Jersey ditto, and at 140 s to 170 s for Cornish ditto. The show of foreign potatoes is seasonably good, for which the demand rules steady, at from 130 s to 170 s per tou. TALLOW.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET. CARRYING A S WORD - STICK.—George Faquard, a gen tleman residing at 24a, Old Cavendish-street, was charged as follows : Francis Walker, 30 C, said about half-past 12 on Satur day night he saw the defendant drunk and making a dis turbance at the door of a cafe in Coventry -street. He requested him to go away, but he refused ; and on his calling another constable to his assistance, he said he would stab him. The defendant when he went up was having an alter cation with one of the waiters, who refused to give up a sword-stick belonging to him. On the way to the station, as the defendant threatened to stab 103 C, and put his hand into his wa!stcoat pocket and pulled out a knife, they threw him on the pavement and took it away by force. The defendant said that first of all the constable said he threatened to stab 103 C, and then that he meant to stab himself. George Pope, 103 C, said, after the defendant had threatened to stab him, he seized his arm, and, not being able to get the knife from him, they threw him down and got it away. The defendant denied the fact that he was drunk and dis orderly. He had been to dine with some friends at Ful ham, and on retiring, drove to the cafe to have some coffee. In this place he met with a friend and had some words with him, and while talking, the sword happening to drop from the stick, and the waiter seeing it, and thinking, perhaps, he meant danger, seized the stick and refused to give it to any one but the police. On the way to the station he put his hand to his pocket to save a good deal of money from falling and then the knife fell out, and was picked up off the ground by the constables. He thought if there was any case as to the knife that it would not have been given up to him when he was bailed. Mr. Tyrwhitt said he should order the defendant to find two bail in the sum of £lO each for six months. He was evidently a dangerous person when drunk. The sword-stick was ordered to be detained, Mr. Tyr.. whitt stating that it was a dangerous practice to carry such a thing. WESTMINSTER. VIOLENT OUTRAGE 13Y BOYS.—James Parkins, aged 14, was charged before Mr. Arnold with assaulting Mary Sanford, between 70 and 80 years of age, an inmate of some almshouses in the Cromwell-road, and with also making use of abusive and indecent language towards her. The complainant stated that about ten o'clock on Satur day night, the prisoner, with some other boys, came into the garden in front of the houses, and threatened her, making use at the time of very bad language.

DREADFUL ASSAULT BY A MAN ON MS WIFE.-Mr. Stoddart, solicitor, applied to Mr. Woolrych for a warrant to apprehend a dock labourer named James Elson, of No. 4, Salter-street, Canon .street-road, for committing a savage assault on his wife. He pointed to a woman who was in a weakly condition, and who was supported by another fe male. Her eyes were frightfully swollen and blackened, and her face one mass of bruises. Mr. Stoddart said the woman's husband came home intoxicated on Friday night and demanded money, which she could not give him, on which he beat her with his clenched fists about the head and body, and when she fell he kicked her on the side. She had been under medical treatment. She had been raised from her bed, and brought to this court on Saturday evening, but owing to a pressure of business she could not see the magistrate. Dr. Kay, of the Commercial-road, who had been in attendance on Mrs. Eisen, said she was much in jured, and was afraid her nose was ken. About twelve months ago the husband was charged at this court with an aggravated assault en his wife. The case was adjourned for three weeks to enable the parties to coma to some ar rangement. Mr. Woolrych—You may have a summons against the husband. Mr. Stoddard—Will you grant a warrant, sir. This is a very bad case. Mr. Woolwrych—lf the husband will appear to the summons there is no occasion for a warrant. If he does not appear to the summons, I will grant a warrant for his apprehension directly. CATTLE DRlVlNG.—lnspector Allison, of the R. division, applied to Mr. Woolrych for six summonses against as many drovers, for driving cattle along the streets and roads of the district, between the hours of 12 at nocn and seven in the evening, contrary to the regulations laid down by Sir Richard Mayne, Commissioner of Police of the Metro polio, and approved by Sir George Grey, the Home Secre tary. Mr. Woolrych had no doubt of the wisdom o f the new r egulations, and he had already convicted several erovuiers for violating the law. Ho w ished to know if the r g a tions had been promulgated I' I ns p ec tor Allison—Yes, sir; very extensively. Mr. Woolryoh—rHave they been published in the news papers P Inspector Allison—l cannot say that has been done. Large placards containing the new regulations, printed in large type, have been posted at every police station in the metropolis, at the Metropolitan Cattle Ms rket, and at all the wharves where cattle are landed from foreign ports.

Granier de Cassagnac contains some interesting comparisons between the public expenditure of France and England, which, though not accurate, so far as our own finances are con cerned, may be worth reading : Fran ce. Civil Service £9,080,000 .. Army 14,760,000 .. Marine England. £10,000,000 24,000,000 9,760,000 £29,880,000 £43,760,000 M. Granier de Cassagnac estimates the number of men in the French army at 400,000, and the total of the English army at 300,000, 100,000 of whom are employed in Great Britain, and 200,000 in India. The interest on the national debt being omitted in both cases, we have no means of drawing any fair comparison, but the total amount set clown as the expenditure of Great Britain for army, navy, and civil service is correct. The exact figures, according to the recent budget, were : Army, Militi a , an d C h i na War £16,500,0 00 Navy 11,800,000 Civil Service ........ This, although the £43,760,000 total is the same, gives a very different complexion to our national expenditure as compared with that of France; but as we shall write on the French budget when M. Fould has more fully explained the details, it is needless to pursue the subject at present. The increase of the national wealth of France is also worth notice. The law of Aug. 7, 1850, prescribed the drawing up of a decennial inventory of the land rvvenues, which was accordingly done. On Jan. 1, 1851, they amounted to £101,840,000 On lan. 1, 1861, they amounted to • 128,640,000 Showing an increase during the ten years of or a mean augmentation of £2,680,000 per annum. LORD CANNING AND THE FREEDOM OF 2.111 Cl 2 Y. ~,,,~....~~ ,-. T=..~-.-.~ The sudden death of Lord Canning is an event of greater magnitude, and of much more moment to the affairs of this country than it has been as yet regarded. There is something extraordinary in the quiet manner in which be has passed away, and we observe a general unconcern as to the event which we cannot regard as either creditable or natural. If we may use a common-place expression o n diedf o n t m i n o g s t death, nopp o i r t tu m n a e y ly b ; while Canning c be saidthough L theord great labour of his lire was completed, and the jus tice of his Indian policy had been • recognized, the man himself had received but few tokens of national regard, and might not have been thoroughly satis fied if his self-sacrifice, devotion, and patriotism were fully appreciated, either by the Crown or the people. The City has especial reason to take note of the quiet passing away of this master pilot, who steered the Indian empire through rocks and whirl pools to open water and benignant sky. It was but the other day that Lord Canning was selected for the addition of his name to the list of Honorary Freemen of the Corporation. The " freedom," en closed in the customary box for preservation, had been unanimously voted him, and the presentation of the gift was deferred, in consequence of the bad state of his lordship's health. The opportunity for a graceful act of recognition by the City of Lord Canning's services to the country and the Crown has gone for ever. " Mors ultima linea reruns. est," says Horece, and it is the lesser evil that a great man should miss a social compliment than that he should sink in the midst of the enterprizes on which rests the hopes of a nation and his own political fame.—City Press. IN A BOAT OVER THE NORFOLK FENS. , e• We made but slow progress through the waters. The tide was ebbing, and we bad it against us. Sometimes as we passed along, the twigs of a submerged hedge would grate against the bottom of the., boat; sometimes as we rowed across a little hillock, or a raised portion of one of the roads which divided the country, the boat would strike. Once we got aground, and once we had to get out, that our boat might be pushed over a dry bank whieb. It was neces sary to cross. Row dreary the few scattered and deserted houses looked as we approached them I It is true that the inhabitants might, if they had chosen, have continued to occupy the upper floors, which were high and dry, lut there would have been risk in it. 'When the wind rose, the waters of this great inland sea became rough, and doubtless such a epechnenas the neighbours had lately seen of the power of the tide made them mistrustful of the strength of their submerged foundations, continuously ex • posed to the action of the water. Most of the windows were blocked up with closed shutters, and some of the doo:s were carefully pedlocked ; for, disgraceful to relate, before the goods had all been removed from the houses, there had been wretches who took advantage of this miserable dis aster to go out in boats in search of any plunder they could lay their hands upon. Here and there one would see some agricultural implement lift upon the thatch of a shed or outhouse. Sometimes the handles of a wheelbarrow would appear sticking up out of the water ; in one place the shafts of a cart that had been abandoned to its fate, rose up above the level of the flood. At last we came to a cottage that seemed to have been less carefully secured than the rest, and having found a gap in the fence of thelittle orchard that sur rounded it, we rowed through the fence, the stakes of the hedge grating ever so little as we passed. The little apple trees in the orchard were partly covered with blossom, and on some of the branches the fruit had even set. It was lo h s e v water, as I have said, and we could see on the treesst of brown mark left by the higher tides.

The water was not so high, though, as it had been a few days before, when one of the men in the boat with me had been to the church with other authorised per eons to remove the communion -plate to some place of safety. The man who had unlocked the church door on that occasion had to plunge his hand deep under water to get at the keyhole, and, when the door was open, waded breast-high through the church to get to the spot where the plate was kept. There was water enough now to float ae contents of the little chapel, and wonderful the interior of the building looked.
