The Money Market to-day is a little firmer, and full rates are demanded by discounters for all de scriptions of commercial bills. The concession re cently made fot paper of a very superior description is no longer allowed, and the cause of the movement appears to be the withdrawal of supplies of money recently available for discount purposes. The low rates of interest now allowed on deposit - accounts by bankers and others has no doubt stimulated much of the joint stock enterprise lately intro duced, and the heavy calls on various de scriptions of shares also exercise an in flueace. There is now, as our readers are aware, a disposition to encourage new under takings, and, in some instances, the applications are excessive, which, allowing for the subscriptions of speculators, still show a desire on the part of the public to effect investments. No one seems to anticipate any important change in monetary affairs, but if new projects are successfully brought forward they can scarcely fail in conjunction with other circumstances to create greater firmness than that recently experienced. The dividends have been announced for payment on the Louisiana 5 per Cent. Bonds, and on the Ecuador Bonds. A dividend of 5 per cent. on the shares of the Norwegian Trunk Railway will be payable on and after the 23d inst. During the last few days there has been very little activity in the Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets. Sugars, in some instances, are a shade cheaper, but coffee, rice, fruit, and spices have re mained at about previous rates. A fair amount of business has been done in saltpetre, and the tallow market has shown symptoms of renewed animation. The operations, however, have been chibfly of a speculative description and for forward delivery. Two O'CLOCK. At Paris, this morning, Three per Cent. Rentes opened at 71f. 45c., showing a rise of I-- per cent. since yesterday. There has not been much activity in the funds to-day, but the few transactions, real and specula tive, that have been negotiated have taken place at the improved quotations of the previous afternoon. Consols are 931 for money and the 6th proximo. Although the market is by no means active the daily transactions are still in excess of the average prior to the payment of the dividends. Since then the demand for stock on behalf of investments has increased, and specula tion has been stimulated by a variety of circum stances, including the recent progress of events on the continent. _ _ The New Threes and the Reduced are 921; Ex chequer Bills show no change ; Bank Stock has de clined to 236 ; and India 5 per Cent. Loan is sup ported at In9l Foreign Securities are generally well supported, and rather more business has been transacted. Turkish 6 per Cents., 1854, are firm, at 821 83; ditto, 1858, at 691 ; the New Loan has improved to 1 prem.; and the Consolides are 38 ; Egyp tian, 891 ; Portuguese Scrip is firm, at 24 prem. ; Peruvian ditto, 11 dis. ; Russian ditto 2 prem.; Sar dinian have improved to 831 ; Spanish Passive are supported at 219 22 ; ditto certificates at 94 k ; Italian, at 721 a ; and Venezuelan, at 291 t. The dealings in the Railway Share Market Were very limited, bat prices generally have exhi bited a firmer tone. South Westerns, Midlands, and South Easterns have advanced ss. ; North Wes terns 10s. ; and Great Northerns 15s. The Foreign and C o l on i a l li nes have remained without any material variation. South Austrian and Lombardo-Venetian realize 221 1 ; Great Luxembourg 1411; Dutch Rhenish 17:-. Cape Town and Dock have declined to 1061. East Indian re main steady at 1061 , and Scindes at 1041. Joint-Stock Bank Shares were largely dealt in at a further slight advance in most instances. Alli ance of London and Liverpool realise 20i ; Bank 121; Metropolitan and Provincial, 131 1 41; and Union of Ireland, 7to 71. Standard of British South Africa are quoted 16 2 prem.; and London and Colonial, 11 2 prem. In the Miscellaneous Market there was no change of importance.

THE GREAT EASTERN RAILWAY COMPANY. This was an action to recover £lO 14s. 6d. damages to a horse under very singular circumstabces. Mr. Gray appeared for the plaintiff ; and Mr. Ashley, of Charles-square, Hoxton, for the company. The plaintiff's witnesses deposed that in the Broadway, Ludgate-hill, there was a deep hole from which rubbish was carted by the plaintiff. The cart was backed to within a few feet of the hole ; the horse's head being towards the street. On the 9th June last plaintiff's cart was in its place when a van belonging to the defendants, laden with paper, in endeavouring to get by struck the shaft of plain tiff's cart, which was with the horse precipitated into the hole, from which the latter was with difficulty extricated. Mr. Ashley —I believe it is a blind horse. In cross - examination one of the witnesses said that the wheels of plaintiff's cart were properly scotched up with a large piece of atone to each wheel. Defendant's driver could have avoided the collision with a little care. Mr. Ashley, on the part of the Company, said his clients were anxious in these cases to get at the facts. The Cora pany's driver had been in its service for ten years, and was a steady man. He was taking a load of paper to the Times office, and no doubt the noise of the heavy van frightened plaintiff's horse and caused it to back into the pit. It was usual to scotch up wheels with a long stout piece of timber, and had that been done in this case no accident would have occurred. Mr. Ashley called two officers, and, after hear ing their evidence, his Honour held that plaintiff's wheels were properly scotched up, and found for plaintiff for £7 19s. 6d. and costs. Do. do.

We extract the following from a letter which appears in the columns of a contemporary : "As it is improbable that any very decisive events will occur before winter sets in, it is important to consider what will be the relative strength of the armies next March, should the war unhappily con tinue. Suppose that the nominal force of the North at the opening of this campaign will exist in reality next year. It is, indeed, difficult to imagine how the Washington Government will support and handle in the field 700,000 men. Whatever the number of men, there are limits to the supply of arms, stores, transport, and the power of floating paper money. Were the North next month to call for and obtain another million of men, this, so far from adding to its strength, would weaken it. They must be fed and paid, and they could neither be brought into the field nor used there to advantage in a country so ill adapted for the operations of very large armies. But, taking 700,000 as the number on the one side, what will be that on the other I' It may be safely estimated that the Confederates have now 300,000 men under arms, and that in March next, after the new levy has come into action, they will have 450,000, including irregulars and all branches of the service. If, then, the attempt to subdue the country has proved futile when the propor tionate strength was as 500 to 150, what will be the prospect of success with the numbers as 700 to 450? With these elements, and basing a judgment upon the experience of the past, there cannot be a reason able doubt of the ability of the South to maintain its independence." Mr. Chase informs us that he is spending at the rate of £155,000,000 sterling a year. The whole in come of the Federal Government when the war began was £11,000,000. EAST CUMBE.RLAND AGRICULTURAL At the dinner of the East Cumberland Agricultural Society, G. H. Head, Esq., of Rickerby House, presided ; the Hon. Charles W. G. Howard, M.P., officiated as vice chairman. Mr. R. FERGUSON proposed the health of the members for the city. Mr. LawsoN, M.P., in returning thanks on behalf of his absent colleague and himself, said he did not know that during the last session of Parliament there were any sub jects discussed having a particular bearing on the agricul tural interest. The last session, if not one of the most in teresting, was certainly one of the most unexciting and uneventful of any they had seen for years past. At the com mencement they seemed of such friendly dispositions and so quiet, and seemed so to agree with one another, that the old simile of the happy family seemed perfectly applicable (Laughter.) But this blessed calm did not continue the whole session. (Laughter.) After a while the trump of war was blown, the battle was set in array, and the hostile forces faced each other—(laughter)—but when they ex pected the shock of battle the opposing party left the field and left them in possession of it. (Laughter.) It was one of those things which would have given the greatest plea sure to his volunteer friend—a sham fight. (Laughter.) Members of Parliament were in the habit of getting up and confessing their faults and saying they had done very little, but he did not know that any great complaint had been made of this. Some were of opinion that the House of Commons was a perfect reflex of the national wishes, and the reason why they did not carry any great measures was that they were not wanted. (Laughter and cheers.) He congratulated the gentlemen who held that opinion that the theory was consistent with the prac tice—the theory being that the country wants the House of Commons to do nothing, and the prac tice that they do it uncommonly well. (Laughter.) One thing they never neglected—they never neglected raising the revenue. (Hear, hear.) Their rulers wished them tobe well prepared against any foreign foe, and the cheerfulness with which the country bore a taxation unheard of in times of peace was most extraordinary, and in some respects most gratifying. (Hear, hear.) But they could Rot conceal from themselves that if bad times should continue, and if the con flict across the Atlantic should not be brought to a conclusion, they would have great difficulty in raising the enormous revenue. (Hear, hear.) No Legislature or bad Govern ment had conduced to the distress they saw, and he did not know that any measure of the Government could afford relief; and although they could do nothing to stop the miserable conflict which was now going on in America he was sure he expressed the feelings of this meeting when he said they most earnestly longed for a message to arrive which would proclaim the restoration of peace on the other side of the Atlantic, and restore prosperity to our own suffering classes. (Cheers.) The Hon. C. HOWARD, M.P., proposed " The Mayor and Corporation of Carlisle." There might bo times of diffi culty in Carlisle, and it would require all the energy of the Mayor and Corporation to do what was in their power to relieve those who have been hitherto employed in the cot ton manufactures. He hoped the time might soon come when peace would pl.( vail between the North and South. (Hear.) Enough bloodhad already been shed, and he hoped the North would now see it was not in their power to make conquest of the South. (Cheers.) But while he said this he did not wish his feelings should be misunderstood. It would be a grievous thing to humanity if the South, in addition to obtaining their independence, should acquire any consider• able extension of territory—(hear, hear)—as it would be likely to lead to the greatest evil that can happen mankind —the extension of the system of slavery. (Cheers.) Mr. BENDLE responded, and called attention to the fact that he had net fulfilled his promise of providing a bull, as the Mayors did of old, for the benefit of the city. (Laughter.) Mr. P. H. HOWARD proposed the health of the Presi dent of the Society in complimentary terms, and in the course of his speech he alluded to American affairs. He paid he trusted the time had arrived er was very speedily to arrive, when the intervention of this coun• try and the other Great Powers of Europe might re store peace to that land—so that we should be able to claim those high promises and blessings bestowed and proclaimed as belonging to peace makers in Holy Writ. (Cheers.) We know that unless in a state of complete exhaustion, neither of those mighty belligerents san sue for peace, and, therefore, peace must come from ex ternal well-wishers, We aro by no means so unpopular in the United States as the more exaggerating portion of the press of that land would seem to say ; and he believed we should lose more by any coldness and indifference to their lot than by anything like active intervention. By thus per The i ty t e o ll o A u i r n s m u A ff N e ri repliedng o p e i r n a t a i ves. restoring peace t o th a t l an d we should also restore pros suffering lengthy( Chsepeerese. ) h, in which he traced the progress of agriculture in the last few years. He advocated the introduction of improved breeds of stock, and new machinery, and pointed out the advantages of deep drainage and other modes by which the fertility of the soil could be increased. Capt. JAMES, of Barroch Park, in proposing the health of the hidges, referred to the remark made by the chairman about farming by the almanack. He thought our ancestors were not so far wrong. From his own experience he knew that on fallow wheat sown before Brough Hill, and on other land wheat sown before Martinmas would be nine times out of ten better than if sown at other times—(hear, hear)—and he had also found that oats sown on the let of April would be nine times out of ten better than if sown on any other day in the season. (Hear, hear.) He called on the judges not to be mealy-mouthed, but if there was a blot in the show to tell them what it was, (Cheers,) Mr. FORSTER having replied, speaking highly of his de partment, Mr. FAWCETT proposed " The Vice-President," who replied. Mr. LAWSON, M.P., proposed "The Press," suggesting the formation of a farmers' club in Carlisle. Mr. W. STEEL responded on behalf of the representatives present. The SECRETARY read the following report of the In spectors of Green Crops : GREEN CROP.—INgPECTOR'S REPORT. " To the Committee of the East Cumberland Agricultural Society. "Gentlemen,—Agreeable to your instructions we pro ceeded to examine the different lots entered for competition for the prizes offered for the best green crops. The num ber of competitors was large, being no fewer than fifteen, and, being spread over a great extent of country, entailed a considerable amount of labour, and required a good deal of time ; but for which we felt sufficiently rewar ded by having to examine crops so much superior to what we had expected to meet with, owing to the unfa vourable nature of the season. For farms above 150 acres there were four entries, and for farms under 150 acres there were 11 entries, and after a careful examination of the dif ferent points required to be attended to by any one who may wish to compete for a premium for green crop, we award the prize for the larger class of farms to Mr. Robert Graham, Holm Gate, and for the smaller class of farms to Mr. John Harrison, Ure , erby. And we feel we should be wanting in duty to the society which, in offering those premiums, hopes to be able thereby to encourage an improved mode of culti vating green crops, if we did not suggest to some of the oacom petitors that th ey m i ght have had their land morecln and the turnips b e tt er thinned and got up. This recom mendation, however, we are glad to say, applies o . n o ly , !La very few, several of the others, as well as those to good we have awarded the prizes, are not only very com mended,crops but are well got up and deserve to be hi the weather during the past season —We_ Thomas Wright, yours respectfully, Thomas Donald, more especially after the un f a vou a ra re b , le ge n n a t t l u e r m e en o f Robert Armstrong." health of the Secretary (Mr. Thomas,, J Te Successful The Chairman, in complimentary term_ re sponded.—The Vice-Chairman ge o v f e Broomhills, Com petitors,"replied.— The to which Mr. Birkett, Unsuccessful Competitors," to Chairman gave "The dr.Donald gave "The which Mr. Ballantyne responded M :, m proposed e s who there.

FRAUDS BY A SRA➢I LAUNDRESS.—Ann King, of 2, Smith's-place, Somers-town, calling herself a laundress, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with obtaining linen by fraud, it being alleged that other cases will be preferred against her. Mrs. Mary Harvey, a widow, and a dressmaker, residing at 38A, Howland -street, Fitzroy-square, said that about three weeks ago the prisoner called on her and said she came from " Madame's, 47, Newman-street, for the linen." She told the prisoner to call on the Wednesday, but she did not call ; and directly after the prisoner left the proper per son called, and she (Mrs. Harvey) then discovered that a fraud had been attempted upon her. Yesterday the pri soner again called and said that " Madame " had sent her from Newman-street for the linen. The prisoner, on her telling her that she was never sent by Madame for the linen, attempted to get away, but Mr. Hart, a gentleman residing in the house, having come to her assistance, the prisoner was detained and given into cusi.ody. Madame Theresa Pelle, 47, Newman-street, laundress, said she never sent the prisoner for the linen. Prisoner said she met a woman in Tottenham-court road, who told her to go to Mrs. Harvey's and ask for the linen. She did so, but never mentioned any name or street. Mr. Tyrwhitt remanded the prisoner for a week at the request of Sergeant E. Davis, 11 E, that other charges may be preferred. SOUTHWARK. PICKING POCKETS.—An elderly woman, named Julia Leuster, was charged before Mr. Burcham with attempting to pick pockets last evening. Police -const a bl e 178 M said, that while on duty the pre vious evening he had been informal that the prisoner had been attempting topick pockets, and accordingly he watched her. At the corner of Wallis-street he saw the prisoner put her hand into the pocket of a young lady, and she then ran away. He took her into custody, but the lady had disap peared, and he had been unable to trace her out. The prisoner denied the charge, and said she was merely standing at the corner of the street when the policeman took hold of her and brought her to the station. It did not appeal that the prisoner was known to the po lice, and she was remanded till Monday. MORE PICKING POCKETS.—A veryyoung man, decently dressed, who refused to give his name or address, but who subsequently said that his name was John Taylor, and that he resided at 5, Meeting-house-lane, North-street, Brighton, was charged, with another party not in custody, with steal• ing a purse containing 6s. 2d., the property of some person unknown. Carpenter, the Inspector of the Brighton line, said that last evening when the six o'clock train was leaving the station he saw the prisoner with another man come out of the booking-office, and they went round to the South- Eastern Railway station. His suspicions being excited, he instructed one of the police-constables on duty to watch them. He lost sight of them for some time, but afterwards saw them coming out of the station with a crowd of persons who had just returned by the excursion train. He saw the other man offer the prisoner a purse, which he refused. He then attempted to seize the latter, who flung the purse, now produced, at his feet and ran away. He then took the prisoner into custody, and he had since communicated with the different station-masters on the line. The prisoner, who denied the charge, said that he had no business or trade, was remanded till Saturday. MARKETS-THIS DAY. HAY MARKETS.

ROBBING POOR BOXES.—The Court of Assizes of the Seine yesterday tried a man, named llonnard, a Bel gian, on several charges of robbing poor-boxes in the churches of Paris and its environs. The prisoner, who had already been condemned for theft and vagrancy, was dis covered, on the night of the 30th May last, concealed in a confessional of the church of St . - Germain-des-Pres. On bis person were found eight keys, iron c hi se l s, a long piece of whaletone, and other articles adapted fur forcing poor boxes, or extracting money from them if too strong to be broken open. The prisoner was recognised as a person who had been seen lurking about the church of St. Bernard the evening before the poor-boxes were broken open, and 80fr. or SOfr. abstracted. Two of the keys found on him were recognized as belonging to the church of Argenteuli, whence they had been stolen on the same night the poor-boxes were emptied of their contents. I t wa s also ascertained that he had not slept at his usual lodgings on toe ni g ht s th e above robberies were committed. In his defence the pri • soner pretended that he was a shoem a k er, and that the tools were used by him in his trade. As to the keys he declared that they belonged to his own trunks, but where the latter were ho could not say. These explanations were not considered sati,factory by the jury, and they brought in a verdict of guilty.

TATTERSALLS'—LAST EVENING. Settling upon the Ceearewitch and the meetings at New market occupied the attention of a large number of members and notwithstanding the utter defeat of the favourites Umpire, Silkstone, and Balder—there seemed to be no per ceptible deficit among backers. Bookmakers upon the whole had a bad week, and some of the layers lost more money than they have done throughout the whole of the season upon any single gathering. Those who supported Hartington—the winner of the great event—were chiefly the personal friends and acquaintances of the owner. Mr. James Smith and Mr. Sydney Smith—no relations—are the principal winners, and some idea of the sums they netted may be formed from the fact of the former gentleman having sent to his bankers' on the day after the Cesarewitch, over £22,000—a portion of his "account" collected at Newmarket. Mr. Steel, of Sheffield, as mentioned previously, won up wards of £B,OOO by the result, and several other fortunate speculators throw in for nice handy stakes. Betting on the Cambridgeshire was rather spirited. Um pire, who left off in the City in the morning at 100 to 7 (taken and offered) was speedily installed first favourite, and, after lumps of money had been entrusted to him, his price at the close was 11 to 1 (taken). Dictator advanced half a point, and left off firm at 14 to 1, while Aurelian, who was first favourite at the club in the early part of the day at 14 to 1, receded at 16 to 1 (taken).

A most serious fire occurred at Hull on Sunday evening. About seven o'clock an alarm was given that the ware house of Messrs. Lee, Smith, and Co., wholesale grocers, Efigh-street, was on fire, and a large body of the police, with the nect.ssary apparatus, were despatched to the spot. At the time the fire was discovered, and indeed during the whole of the day, a terrific storm was raging in Hull, and the southerly wind served to fan the flames into a tremen dous conflagration. The upper portion of the warehouse, containing hemp and flax, was speedily in a blaze. Every effort was made to arrest the progress of the flames, but all Ittempts proved fruitless. The firo had obtained too great a mastery, and for nearly twelve hours it raged with un interrupted fury, consuming everything in the build ing. From the position of the building, the hose had to be taken up a narrow passage. Along this pas sage on the right hand side was the warehouse wall, and while the fire was at its height this wall fell with a dreadful crash, burying a number of police officers and other men who were beneath attending to their duties. For a moment all was consternation, but, speedily recovering themselves, the men who had escaped at once set to work to remove the debris and recover their unfortunate com rades. In a short time three men were brought out. The search for the remaining men was made under the most exciting circumstances. Close to the place at which the accident had happened the fire raged with fearful fury, and the men engaged in removing the ruins were exposed to the heat of the flames, while the smoke almost suffocated them. Besides this another portion of the wall remained in a very threatening state ; but the labourers were not deterred from their humane work, and as each man was recovered, the cheers of the multitude stimulated them to renewed exertions. A policeman, named Redfern, was taken out dead, having been literally crushed to pieces. He was a native of Mirfield, in the West Riding, and had been in the Hull police force many years. The following were injured : Police Constable M'Cormick, very seriously wounded ; Henry Parkin, employed by Messrs. Lee, Smith, and Co. also seriously hurt; Police Constable Revel, injur ed in the foot, and bruised by the falling of a beam ; Police Con stable Franks, much bruised ; Police Constable Hard battle, suffering much from the quantity of smoke inhaled while in the discharge of his duties; Sergeant Bentley, much bruised. A seaman belonging to her Majesty's ship Cornwallis, was also injured by the falling of the wall; and, indeed, nearly all who were engaged in attempting to extinguish the fire suffered in some way or other, the operations being carried on under the most difficult cir cumstances. The o r i g i n o f th e fi re i s no t yet definitely known, although it is supposed to have broken out amongst Some hemp. Neither can the amount of damage be yet estimated, but it will be many thousand pounds.

His unsuccessful opponent was then 0 new Viscount Palmerston, who has entered on his 79th year. How the latter lad looked w h en unsuccessfully can vassing the university which subsequently was delighted to have him, will be seen from a passage in a letter of Isaac Milner's now before us :—" By-and-by in came Lord Pal merston. He conversed a full hour on the subject of tht sieve trade, and, I can assure you, a more ingenuous ap pearance I never saw. The young man's conscience seemed hard at work for fear, not of saying too little, but of saying too much, viz., of saying more than he could justify to his own mind, from the little consideration he had given to the subject." What this young man has since said and done, we all know ; but some of us may have forgotten what Lord Henry Petty did in his day—he calmed the hot heads of our grandfathers by abolishing the tax upon hats. The trial of the Gavazzi rioters at Tralee has been postponed t o the next quarter sessions, on th e appli- I cation of the Crown, in consequence of an informality in the form of the indictment. They were brought up for trial on Friday, I,':fore a very full bench of magistrates, and all concerr e a i n the prosecution appeared quite resolved to do tteir duty. The form of indictment, however, although the one in general use in the county, did not exactly apply to the circumstances of the case, and the Crown prosecutor thought it better not to proceed on it.
