MONEY MARKET. CITY NE ‘4 S-SATURDAY. The Asia, from Boston, has brought £lO,OOO in specie. A similar amount is being brought over by the Edinburgh. The advices just received from Me'bourne an nounce the departure for England of the Lincoln shire, with £195,000 in gold; the Blue Jacket, With £104,000 ; and the Anglesea, with £28,000; making a total of only £327,000. The Orwell, re ported by the previous mail, is still at sea with £124,000. There is renewed excitement in the Liverpool Cotton Market. A fresh advance of id. to id. per lb. took place to-day, and the sales increased to 15,000 bales. Advices from Frankfort mention that the panic on the Vienna Exchange caused by the movements of Garibaldi and the fear of new complications in Italy, has in a great degree subsided. The market, however, has been affected by a heavy demand for bills on London on the part of the Trieste merchants, to provide for large orders for cotton and other Produce. Hence the Austrian funds will show a con siderable decline since the beginning of the month, amounting in some cases to 3 per cent. The Chartered Mercantile Bank of India, London, and China have announced a dividend of 5 per cent,, free of income tax, for the half-year ending the 30th of June. The directors state that the loss to the bank from the recent opium fraud at Hong kong will not, they believe, exceed £B,OOO. At the half yearly meeting of the Melbourne and Robson's-bay Railway Company, held at Melbourne On the 3d of June, a dividend of £2 10s. per share Was declared, and is now payable to the shareholders on the London register. CITY NEWS-THIS DAY . TWELVE O'CLOCK. The accounts from the manufacturing districts, for the past week, are of a less satisfactory charac ter, owing to the prevalence of unfavourable 'weather, and the effect it may have on harvest pro -B?ects. The woollen trade of Leeds, however, has been steady, and owing to the smallness of stocks on hand manufacturers generally are well employed. elothm and yarns at Manchester have fully sustained Previous prices. The hosiery and lace trades of Leicester and Nottingham have remained without toaterial variation. In the hardware districts, viz., at Birmingham, Sheffield, and Wolverhampton busi ness generally has continued inactive. he . l Tasmanian, for the West Indies, has taken out £421,800 in gold, chiefly on account of the Peru -Ilan Loan. An ad interim dividend, at the rate of 10 per cent., has been declared by the directors of the Agra and United Service Bank, for the half-year fending 30th June last. The directors of the Chartered Mercantile Bank of India, London, and China have announced a di- Irdened of 5 per cent. for the past six months. The }LIU-yearly meeting of the Oriental Inland Steam Co mpany will take place on the 28th inst. Vie directors of the St. John del Rey Mining Company (.invited) have received, by a duplicate telegram from Lisbon, the following report, dated Morro Velho, July, 1862:—Produce for June, 4 3,660 oitavas ; cost for do., £9,315 ; profit for do., £7,154. Produce (11 days of July), 14,823 oit. ; yield, 7,115 oit. per ton. The Money Market continues firm and active. Pall rates are asked by the joint-stock and private establishments for all the securities presented to them for negotiation, and the Bank of England authorities are obtaining a very large share of the bills now brought forward. There is still an idea in some quarters that an early advance will take place In the value of money, but the future tendency of affairs Nvill greatly depend upon the extent to which the shipments of specie on account of recent foreign loa ns may be neutralised by arrivals from Victoria, &c., and results of the harvest. A large supply of Australian gold, viz., 2.318,460, has just come in, :and it is also satisfactory be able to record an Iruprovement in the weather, which, if continued, Will exercise a very favourable in_quoce upon the yield of cereal products, The re was a meeting to-day of the proprietors of the Bank of Australasia, at which it was t.'tatedt that the directors continue to receive from I.he euperint9ndent and managers satisfactory accounts o f the current transactions of the Bank. They have also the pleasure to state that the indications of active and healthy progress in the general condition of the Australian Colonies, to which they alluded in their last report, were becoming more apparent. Trad e was improving ; and although the price of 'Wool has fallen, better rates were being obtained for Other kinds of colonial produce. The yield of gold fr om alluvial diggings had declined, partly owing to the d ificulty of procuring water, Quartz mining Was balg prosecuted with success ; and the dis coveries which were taking plane of fresh gold fields, e sPeetally in New South Wales, tend to confirm the °Pirions entertained of the richness and extent of the mineral resources of Australia. The directors to l z e tt n ie ow i4 ou th ly to declare their intention of paying of October, the same dividend and It : i ne as for th e half-year at April, being together, t the rate of 121 per Cent. per annum, free of In come-ta x .

The marriage of Miss Ina Sarah Forbes Bonetta and Mr. James Pinson Labulo Davies, a short his torical sketch of whom was given in last Thursday's impression, was duly solemnised on that day, at St. Nicholas Church, Brighton. The following details of the ceremony from the Brighton Observer will be read with interest:—" As early as 10 o'clock the approaches to the Old Church by way of Churci.- street, North-street, and Church-hill were thronged with crowds of persons, anxiously waiting for the opening of the church doors. For about an hour they were detained in the pelting rain—that is, such portion of them as were unprovided with tickets of admittance. Before that time a large number of ladies, provided with the aforesaid tickets, were admitted by the north-east entrance, and took up the best position they could near the altar. About half-past 10 a " couple" presented themselves at the hymeneal altar to be made one. The reverend vicar per formed the ceremony, which had scarcely con cluded when the first carriage of the party arrived at the northern entrance. All eyes instantly left the newly-married couple, and were directed to the vestry-door. Here entered four bridesmaids—ladies of colour—apparelled in white dresses, with red rib bon trimming extending round the neck and across the chest ; a broad sash of the same coloured mate rial being fastened around the waist, long streaming ends reaching almost to the ground, white tarlatan opera cloaks were thrown over their shoulders, and their heads were encircled with bonnets of tulle of the purest whit e, and of the latest fashion ; the caps being formed of blonde, interspersed with apple blossom. In these all interest was centred, until a few minutes later four fair bridesmaids entered the sacred edifice, two of whom were attired similar to their sister—African bridesmaids, whilst the other two wore " Forget-me-nots" in their bonnets ; and their white dresses were trimmed with blue ribbon, with sashes to match. The next party that arrived included the bridegroom and five coloured grooms men. Then followed six fair young ladies varying from about twelve to six years of age, also brides maids. These, too, were also dressed in white, with white Tuscan hats trimmed—two with apple-blos soms and four with "forget-me-nots," with white lace streamers hanging tastefully down their backs. Four English bridesmen and one coloured gentleman concluded the party, with the exception of numerous friends. The excitement then became intense—all that was wanting was the bride. Some few minutes elapsed, all eyes being rivetted on the door. At length a cheer and a clapping of hands from the hundreds without the building announced her arri val. Steadfastly was she scanned from head to foot. She was robed in pure white. Her dress was of glace silk, the trimmings being of the same material. A wreath of orange blossoms encircled her brow, and a veil of white lace hung tastefully from it over her shoulders and bosom. She was met at the door by the bridegroom, and appeared considerably ner vous, the incessant throbbing of her deeply-coloured breast being very perceptible through her thin gar ments. Of her personal qualities we may safely say s h,. , is one of the prettiest coloured ladies we ever beheld. There is a distinct absence of that abrupt ness In tno rt.tures so often seen in females of the African race , which gives them an air of ferocity. . She has an eye ,expressive of tenderness and beam ing with intelligen.le, whilst her whole deportment is ladylike in the extreme. On the arrival of the bride all was in readiness. The bridal party were ranged before the altar. Next behind the bride and bridegroom stood the childen, then the African and English bridesmaids, mingled in pleasing confusion, whilst the groomsmen brought up the rear. The en tire length of the nave of the church was crammed with people, anxious to obtain a glimpse of the cere mony. The Right Rev. the Lord Bishop of Sierra Leone, assisted by the Rev. Henry Venn and the Rev. Wm. Nichol (a gentleman of colour) performed the service, which was strictly in adherence with the form of the Church of England. Immediately on the rev. bishop commencing the prayers the ut most silence prevailed,but the responses were uttered in so low a tone by the bride and bridegroom that they were perfectly inaudible at but a few yards from the altar. Capt. Forbes, R.N., father of the late Capt. Forbes, who brought Miss Bonetta to England, gave away the bride. The ceremony lasted about three-quarters of an hour, when, the registry having been signed, the happy couple and the bridal party left the church, being lustily cheered by the populace which had assembled in hundreds at the vestry door. A merry peal on the church bells added much to the cheerfulness of the scene at the conclusion of the ceremony." A breakfast on a splendid scale, served up in the garden of West Hill-lodge, followed, which was partaken of by a large and distinguished company, including the newly-married couple, the Bishop of Sierra Leone, Captain Forbes, several clergymen connected with the district and the Church Mis sionary Society, and a number of ladies. The Rev. H. Venn proposed the health of the "Bride and Bridegroom," to which the bridegroom replied, and in doing so, expressed himself highly indebted to Englishmen for their kindness since he had been amongst them. The proceedings were brought to a conclusion about half-past four by the singing of the " Doxology," and the happy pair left for Lon don, and it is said they intend to start shortly for I Sierra Leone, and expect to be there in a bout a month, DEATH j. 0 h I I L N H A u mp ßßlCK hrey s, Ii ILN.—This ( A MAN I‘ ROASTED ionday) the following shocking occurrence : -- Abo ut one of the coroners of Middlesex, receivedutisnifxormo,caloticoknoonf mo T rn O ing D , Ambler's brickfield s , in the Lower -road, Ball's-pond, -road top of one of the Saturday morning, a s two boys were passing along Messrs.

The body was taken to the Islington dead-house to await a coroner's inquest. Upon searching the body only two pieces of yellow tape were found in his pockets, but nothing to lead to his identity. The inquest, it is expected, will be held to •morrow. There is a rumour that the telegraphic wires between Sicily and Naples are cut.

Divi , MARKETS-THIS DAY. MARK LANE. The country markets held on Saturday were firmer for wheat, and prices were on the advance. All kinds of spring corn commanded full rates, with a steady inquiry- The flour trade was moderately active, on rather higher terms. On the Continent, nearly all cereals have sold slowly, but very little change has taken place in their value. Advices from New York bring lower prices for wheat and flour. The arrivals of English grain up to our market last week were exceedingly small. The imports from abroad were 31,728 quarters of wheat, 6,935 barley, 61,918 oats, 3,335 beans, 5,576 peas, 555 tares, 3,040 linseed, 530 rapeseed, 1,350 maize, 2,331 sundry seeds, 780 sacks and 7,190 barrels of flour. Scarcely any old home-grown wheat was on offer in this day's market. Of new produce, however, nearly two thou sand quarters came to hand, but the quality generally speaking, was much inferior to that of last year's crop. Owing to the prevailing unfavourable weather, there was decidedly more firmness in the trade, but without leading to any anxiety on the part of millers to effect sales, and prices must be considered Is. per quarter higher than on Monday last. The quotations for new wheat varied from 58s to 64s per quarter. The market was well supplied with foreign wheat. In some instances, importers demanded Is. per quarter more money, but they were almost generally willing to sell at fully last Monday's currency, at which a good retail business was transacted. ----- Floating cargoes of grain were in steady request, and the quotations had an upwards tendency, There was some very fine new Kentish barley on sale, which sold at 41s. per quarter. Middling and inferior qualities changed hands, at from 365. to 385., but the show of new produce was small. Foreign descriptions were disposed of at extreme rates. The malt trade was somewhat inactive, yet no change took place in prices. An increased supply of foreign oats was on the stands, but the show of home-grown qualities was exceedingly small. Good and fine parcels moved off steadily, at full quotations; otherwise the oat trade was slow, on rather easier terms. lisedßeans, owin gates to the limited qu an tit y in the market, rea extreme r. Peas ruled firm, at full currencies. Very few parcels of new were on offer, the value of which was unchanged ; grey, 38s to 40s ; white, 41s to 42s per quarter. For flour there was a somewhat improved inquiry, and prices ruled the turn higher. CURRENCY PER IMPERIAL MEASURE.

There was a fully average supply of foreign stock on offer here to-day. The beasts were mostly in middling condition, but the quality of the sheep and calves was good. From our own grazing districts the receipts of beasts fresh up this morning were only moderate for the time of year, Those from Ireland, however, were good, but frcm Scotland they were trifling. Prime Scots, crosses, and shorthorns moved oft freely, owing to the small number on offer, at Thursday's advance in the quotations, the top figure being 4s 10d per 81bs, but all other breeds met a slow inquiry, at late rate. From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northamtonshire we received 2,600 shorthorns, &c. ; from other parts of England, 400 various breeds; from Scotland, 31 Scots and crosses ; and from Ireland, 400 oxen and heifers. Nothwithstanding that the supply of sheep was some what extensive, all good and prime breeds commanded a steady inquiry, at fully last week's currency. Inferior breeds, however, moved off slowly, on former terms. A few very superior downs realised 6s 6d per 81bs, but the general top price for mutton was 5s 4d per 81bs. Prime small lambs were in request, at extreme rates, viz., 6s 2d to 6s 4€l per 81bs. Otherwise the lamb trade was in a sluggish state, at previous rates. Calves, the supply of which was tolerably good, moved off slowly, at Thursday's currency—viz., from 40 to 5s per 81bs. We have to notice a dull inquiry for pigs, at about sta tionary prices.

This morning the August Sessions of the Central Cri minal Court commenced at the Sessions House, Old Bailey. The calendar contains a list of no fewer than 151 prisoners for trial. The Grand Jury having been sworn, The Common Sergeant (T. Chambers, Esq., Q.C.), in the absence of the Recorder, delivered the charge, and said that although the calender was heavier than usual, owing to the lapse of time since last session, the cases for the most part were not of a very serious character. He was, however, sorry to say that, among them there were three cases involving loss of life. The first charge was against a sailor for stabbing another seaman. The other case was that in which a woman was charged with stabbing a man. The next case was that in which a woman, named Mary Ann Harris, was charged with the murder of her child, and who attempted to destroy herself. In the case of James Macroft Osbourne, who was charged under the Fraudulent Trustees Act of misappropriating funds to the extent of upwards of £3,000, as trustee under the will of William Macroft, deceased, the jury would have no difficulty is returning a true bill. There was another charge of a most remarkable and serious character against a person named Charles Rey nolds, alias Davies, for sending threatening letters to Sir Anthony and the Baron Rothschild with the intention to extort money. The Grand Jury would have no difficulty in sending the case for trial before the petty jury, as the prisoner hal admitted he wrote the letters. The learned Judge said in the other cases there was nothing to call for any remarks from him, except that he regretted to say that e i n assaults which o ld mena uponr s f e girlsiffi f e r e thene different ages there were e e seveneharg charged d r eight with casesfe felonious u tender years. If any legal difficulty should jury would communicate with the Court, it would readily afford them every assistance. The Jury then withdrew, and during the morning re turned a number of true bills. POLICE-THIS DAY. WESTMINSTER. SERIOUS DEPREDATIONS IN AN ORCHARD,--Henry gunge and Thomas Dagerley, two little boys desoribed as only nine years of age, but who looked much older, were charged with the following robbery __ William Watts, 253 B, said—On Saturday evening, at half-past seven, he was on duty at Walton.street station, when two gentlemen came there and said that there were a number of boys in Mrs. Catleigh's garden, close by, stealing some apples. Witness was directed by his in spector to go and endeavour to apprehend them. On proceeding to the spot he saw the prisoners and another boy running across the garden in the direction of Walton street. He gave chase and caught Dagerley, upon whc ra he found a large quantity of fine large apples tied Up 111 his jacket. The other boys escaped, but one of them was after wards caught. Henry Rayner,hackney carriage attendant, proved appre hending gunge, upon whom he found the apples. Mr. Dayman inquired 'whether there was any fence to the garden ? Inspector Butler replied in the affirmative. It was no less than between 7 and 8 feet high, and Mrs. Catleigh had lately been at considerable expense in having it thrown up, in consequence of the alarming depredations by the boys in the neighbourhood. She had been plundered to a great extent lately. James Smith, foreman to Mrs. Catleigh, fruiterer, Ann street, Chelsea, identified the apples as his mistress's pro•. perty. There were besides these between 20 and 30 apples lying loose in the garden, which he had no doubt would have been taken had the boys not been disturbed. Mr. Dayman asked the boys whether they had anything to say? Defendants, as usual, said some bigger boys had sent them into the garden. They were locked up for 14 days, in default of paying 10s. 6d. each. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. STEALING A DIAMOND RING.--Mary Ann Mills, who said she was 17, but really looked no more than 14, was charged with stealing a diamond ring of the value of £l5, the property of Mr. George Lewes, jeweller, of 12, Port man-street, Bryanstone-square. 1 Prosecutor said he met the girl and went with her to a house in Arundel-court, and while there the prisoner took off his diamond ring and pretended she had dropped it. He observed her place her hands behind her, and told her that if she did not return it he would give her in charge, and then sent for a constable. Billet; a constable, said he was called to Arundel-court. Mr, Tyrwhitt observed that he believed it was a most notorious place. Billett said it was, He searched the place, but could not find the ring, Sergeant Stephens, 11 C, said the prisoner was brought to the station on Saturday night and searched by the female searcher, who found nothing; from what he observed when he went in the cell subsequently, the prisoner having her gown off, he felt in the pocket of it, and there found the ring, which the prosecutor identified. Prisoner, whose voice was that of a child, asked to be for given. Mr. Tyrwhitt asked her whether she was really 17 Years of age. The girl said she was, and was remanded for a week, having given a false address. A FOREMAN CHARGED WITH ROBBING HIS MASTER. --Stephen Cann, foreman to Mr. Alfred Gorton, butcher, of Great Windmill-street, ,was charged with robbing his employer. Mr. Gorton said he was induced to watch the prisoner, who came down before the usual time, and he observed him open the door and let in a man, who laid down a cloth. The prisoner then selected a leg of mutton, a large piece of beef, &c. The man then left with it, and he pursued him and gave him over to another person, and on returning to the house the door was shut against him, and the prisoner made his escape over the roofs of several houses. The other man managed to escape from the person he had left him in charge of. It was the fourth foreman who had served him the same way, although he paid them what ever wages they asked. Sergeant Curm, C division, said he found the prisoner had escaped over the roof of some houses, and took him into custody while he was secreted in a cellar. Mr Edward Lewis, of Great Marlborough-street, said it would be idle for him to address anything on the prisoner's behalf more than to say, that before quitting Mr. Gorton's service he had been suffering for a long time from illness. Mr. Tyrwhitt remanded the prisoner for a week. NEWGATE AND LEADENHALL. Fair average supplies of meat have been on sale here to-day.

The Federal flotilla has for the present aban doned the siege of Vi c k s b urg. Fifteen hundred men of General M'Clellan's army have crossed the south side of the James river. It is supposed that an advhnce on Fort Darling may be made from the south side. The Now York enlistment committee urge a general arming and drilling of the people. The Mayor of New York has recommended the appropriation of 1,000,000 dols. for the construc tion of rams and gunboats for the defence of New York harbour. The drafting order has caused considerable ex citement, and large crowds are applying for exemption papers. An Irish mob attacked a fac tory in Brooklyn where negroes are employed, and threatened to burn the premises with the negroes inside. The latter were, however, protected ley the a ns police, who succeeded in restoring order. The only cause t ipa a t h s y i negroe s .

The Herald en tered the harbour safely. The captain of the British steamer Greyhound has protested, and the matter will be referred to the home Governments; The Northern Light, from Aspinwall, has arrived at New York with 1,000,000 dollars in specie. The Arabia was intercepted off Cape Race on the 3d inst. Speculation is rife concerning the future Federal and Confederate military movements, but nothing definite can be ascertained of the future plan of campaign. Important movements are expected at any moment. The report of the evacuation of Richmond has not been confirmed. Governor Sprague, of Rhode Island, is raising e. coloured regiment for the war. The Edinburgh sailed yesterday for Europe with 50,000 dols. in specie. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. NEW YORK, AUG. 7, Evening. Money easy. Gold, 14,1- per cent. premi.um. Ex change fiat.

A private despatch says that the steamer was beached, and that there was a chance of saving the specie. THE ROMAN QUESTION. Another pamphlet has appeared on the "Roman ques tion," it is called "La Capitel de Phalle ;" the author is M. Francois Potier. M. Potier is of opinion that " all the efforts of diplomatists for a compromise are chime rical so long as Italy maintains in its programme Rome for its capital. The Papacy could make no con cession on this point without abdicating its Sovereignty." He is also convinced that "if the promoters of the Italian idea frankly give up placing at Rome the seat of Government, and if they admit the principle of the Pontifical Sovereignty, they would no longer find the Papacy resisting the patriotic part of their aspirations. The Papacy would even co-operate with them by resuming its historic part of moderator among Christian Princes and protector of the independence of Italy." He denies the necessity of Italy fixing the seat of its Government at Rome, and:contends that, far from securing the freedom and unity of Italy, it would endanger both. He suggests Ravenna as the proper capital. " Italy ought to be a modern idea, a Chris tian nation, like Prance and Spain, and not a poor imitation of the classical period, Christian Italy has ever had a capi tal ; it was Ravenna on which the duchy of Rome depended —Ravenna, which for two centuries was the seat of the Go vernment of the Exarchs, or Viceroys of Italy. The Ita lians who wish to be archaeologists, but Christian archaeolo gists, should take Ravenna for their capital." If they do not desire this, he suggests that the Italian Parliament should choose by lot the name of the new capital. He admits there is no precedent for such a mode of proceeding, but this is noargumentagainst it. "It would:be a noble and touching spectacle to see the representatives of all the glorious cities of Italy laying their respective claims and their ancient rivalries on the altar of their country, closing all disputes, and calling upon a Royal child, the presumptive heir to all the Crowns, to draw from the ballot-box the name of the future capital." M. Potier would prefer Naples, but for one reason :—" Naples, were it not on military grounds, would have greater claims than any other to the suffrages of all. Naples has double the population of Rome, three times that of Turin, four times that of Florence, and, so far as population is worth anything. has that advantage. It is equally distant from the two extremities of Italy, from the northern frontier and the point of Sicily. Naples would be a splendid capital. But its magnificent posi tion on the sea makes it weak. A few English or French vessels could at any moment reduce it to ashes. Now, unless the Italians aim at being soon masters of the sea, they ought not to desire for their capital a city without defence, constantly exposed to the insults of a squadron. Their national independence requires a sanctuary better protected against the foreigner. They are expected to choose the site ; it is their business to make it impregnable." The only solution of the problem is to build a new city and make it the capital of Italy; and be quotes precedents in support of this view :—" When Constantine became a Christian, he at o nce understood that the destinies of the empire were c h anged, and that at Rome there was a majesty greater than his. But, not • hing to be second in Rom e , h e founded at Byzantium the seat of his empire. It i s t h e fashion to speak with disdain of the empire of C ons t antine ; yet a work which has lasted 11 centuries, and which may again acquire new life, has a right to respect from history. When Peter the Great, on his return f rom his travels inthe countries of the West, re solved to ma k e of Russia a modern European nation, he despaired of accomplishinghis work by reason of the traditions associated 'with the old Asiatic city of Monsceowof. the e founded St. Petersburg, and his doing so Wh w-as en o , after the mostwhich secured re markable traits of his ge ei nence and which victory bad been dePe es n s not choose th e United States of America aided by French a rmB ' became a nation, the Congress for a capital York or Charleston. It Boston or PhiladelPh m, city to be the seat of Government, and gave it founded a ei awe of Washington. Alas where is the the glorious n viw ,hi n gton worthy of giving his name to the capi talltalian their in of Italy ?" But, whatever be said of a new capital, M. Potier is decidedly of opini on th a t i t must no t b e R om e. The same majesty which at Rome drove away the first Christian Caesar drives away the first Ring of Italy. Rome i s silll the centre of the wor ld, not t h a t o f a nation. Who ever wishes to found an Italy should loave Rome to the Pontiff, and seek a capital elsewhere."
