The raffle receipts of the Great Western Railway of Cane da for the week ending the 18th ultimo, amount :t 'd to £10,184 against £9,970 last year. The e Letup nd for discount accommodation is quieter as usu al, just after the monthly liquidation of com merci al accounts, but the market still retains a very firm appearance, and it seems to be the general opin' ion that the rates will shortly exhibit a fur ther upward tendency, through the transmission of spec ;ie to Turkey and Egypt, on account of the low as lately introduced, and other influences. The cle .citations at present, however, are indicative of a 1 Jundant supplies and moderate requirements, the 'dank of England minimum being 21 per cent., while accommodation is obtainable in other quar ters as low as 2 per cent.

Rothschild received applica tions for abv P.tl:ls,ooo,ooo,whereas the amount for appropriat.,,Len represented £10,000,000. This result has crea' tcm). some little surprise, owing to the apathy she,wn on the Stock Exchange, and the aPPare - at indifference with which the operation was /iewe d by the public at large. It is under stoe'd, how ever, that the Continental Markets have largely contributed to the tsuccess of the affair.

Full average supplies of wheat were exhibited in the various country markets, held on Saturday, and all kinds moved off slowly, at, in some instances, rather less money. Spring corn, however, was in fair request, at full prices. In flour, only a moderate business was transacted. The continental markets still continue dull for wheat, and advises from New York bang rather easier currencies for produce generally, owing to the large quantities on offer. Somewhat increased supplies of home-grown produce were received up to our market last week. The imports from abroad were 17,256 quarters of wheat ; 19,624 barley ; 30,496 oats; 2,089 beans; 322 tares; 2,375 linseed; 1,836 oats ; 50 sundry seeds ; and 250 sacks of flour. There was a comparatively good arrival of English wheat fresh up to this morning's market, both from Essex and Kent, and most samples came to hand in fair condition. The trade, fJr all qualities, was in a most sluggish state, and sales could only be effected by submitting to a reduc tion in the quotations current on Monday last of 2s per quarter. At the close of business a considerable portion of this supply was left unsold. The show of samples of foreign wheat was somewhat ex tensive. For all descriptions the demand ruled heavy in the extreme, and, compared with Monday last, prices exhi• bited a decline of ls, in some instances 2s, per quarter. Floating cargoes of grain were a dull inquiry, and the currencies had a downward tendency. We were very moderately supplied with English barley, all good qualities of which sold freely, at extreme rates. Inferior as well as foreign parcels were in slow request, on about former terms. Good and fine malt was firm as to price; but inferior parcels were a dull inquiry, Oats—notwithstanding the increased supply—changed hands to a fair extent, and prices, on the whole, were steadily supported. _ _ . - Beans were in short supply, and steady, though by no means active, request, at full quotations. Peas moved off steadily, at quite previous currencies. The supply on offer was small. The flour trade was dull, and prices had a downward tendency, CURRENCY PER IMPERIAL MEASURE.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET The supply of foreign beasts and calves here to-day, was very moderate—c f sheep tolerably good. The latter from Germany were held at from 23s to 32s each. On the whole, sales progressed steadily, at fully last week's currency. There was a decided falling off in the arrival of home-fed beasts fresh up this morning ; but the quality of the stock was very good. Nearly all breeds commanded a steady sale, at an advance in the quotations compared with this day se'nnight, of 2d per 81bs, and at which a fair clearance was effected. The best Scots and crosses realised 4s 4d per 81bs. From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, we received 1,900 Scots, shorthorns, and crosses; from other parts of England, 600 various breeds ; and from Scotland, 420 Scots and crosses, No beasts reached us from Ireland. The number of sheep on offer was seasonably good. The quality of most breeds was prime. On the whole, the mutton trade ruled firm, at prices fully equal to those realised on Monday last. Nearly the whole of the sheep were out of the wool ; consequently, our quotations now refer solely to shorn qualities. The best Downs and half breds realised quite 4s 8d per 81bs. Good and prime lambs sold steadily at full prices, but inferior breeds moved off slowly. The quotations ranged from 6s 4d to 8s per 81bs. About 800 came to hand from the Isle of Wight. _ _ Calves—the supply of which was moderate—met a steady sale, at last week's prices. The top figure was 5s 6d per 81bs. We have to report a dull inquiry for pigs, at previous currencies. Per Slb. to sink the offal. P. d. s. d.

The Marquis of CLANRICARDE, who had a motion on the paper for the appointment of a select committee to inquire into the causes of the great and frequent inundation of the river Shannon and its tributaries, said he was com pelled to postpone bringing forward the subject until that day week. DECLARATION OF TITLE BILL. Lord CRAN WORT H moved the third reading of this bill, the object of which was to enable parties to go before the Court of Chancery and make a declaration that they had a perfectly good title to certain property, and, having made the declaration, that they might then go into the market and sell the land if they felt so disposed. The bill created no new tribunal, neither did it involve any expense ; and as it was founded on the principle of the Encumbered Estates Court in Ireland, which had worked so well that he thought it desirable that that system should be introduced into this cluntry. The bill could do no harm, but in his opinion it was calculated to do a very great deal of good, especially as it was founded on the system which had been in existence in Ireland for the last 14 years. Lord CHELMSFORD explained his reasons for agree ing to the bill which differed so essentially from the one he had introduced. The bill was then read a third time and passed. SECURITY OF PURCHASERS BILL. Lord CRAN WORD moved the third reading of this bill, which was for registering the declarations made under the bill their lordships had just agreed to. After a few words from Lord ST. LEONARDS, the bill was read a third time and passed. TRANSFER OF LAND BILL. The LORD CHANCELLOR moved the third reading of this bill. Lord ST. LEONARDS said he looked upon the bill as one for the general registry of all assurances, a proposal which the select committee had been unanimous in con demning. The measure would call for the establishment of a new tribunal to be called a registers court, and the ex penses of register and clerks followed as a necessary conse quence.

Mr. GRIFFITH gave notice that he would to-morrow "I ca question as to whether any attempt had been made to induce the Government of this country to take a part in these hostilities. COUNTY INFIRMARIES, &c. (IRELAND). Capt. STACPOLE asked the Chief Secretary for Ire land when the returns relating to county infirmaries and fever hospitals (I re land), ordered on the 26th July, 1861, and 28th Februaly, 1862, would be laid upon the table. Sir E. PEEL was understood to say that the documents in question were not yet completed, but they would shortly be submitted to the house. VOLUM EER cow's' DRILL INSTUCTORS. Mr. GRIFFITH asked the Soeretary of State for War whether he was aware that the drill instructors appointed to volunteer corps by the War-office were not contented with the pay they receive from the War-office, but required pay in addition from the volunteers ' and whether such proceeding was in ac c or dance with the intention of the War-office; and, if not, whether the Government would prevent its occurrence, either by prohibiting the drill in structors from making any demand on the volunteers, or in any other way, Sir G. LEWIS said that those instructors who had pen sions received the same pay as sergeants of militia, namely, 2s. 4d. a day, and those who had not pensions received 2s. 7d. a day. With regard to the last question, the matter rested entirely with the volunteers, and the War-office had only a few communications on the subject. THE REVISED CODE OF EDUCATION. The house went into committee on the Revised Code. Mr. WALPOLE said that he had to discharge a duty which would be at once agreeable and painful. It was agreeable, because he hoped that the present controversy would be terminated to a considerable extent ; but it was painful, because he believed that, however far the Govern ment would go in adopting alterations in the Re vised Code, they would dis a pp oint some persons. The Vice-President of the Board of Education had in the n.ost frank, and he need not say in the most able manner, announced the modifications which the Govern ment had determined on adopting in the Revised Code, which were important in their character, very extensive in their operation, and, he must add, highly. conciliatory to the tone and temper of the house and country. He thought the Government should be met in the sa me spirit, n advised Parliament to accept the Revised Code with those alterations, although some doubts might exist as to par ticular portions of the code even in its modified form. He thought it right, however, while he abandoned opposition to the code, in which some of his resolutions had been introduced to make some observations which he thought were not uncalled for. He had received some communica tions during the Easter recess relative to the principal points of the Code. In the first place it appeared that the c,ertill.• cated teachers did not think they were justly treated, and strong objections were entertained respecting all the rants under the existing system being converted into capitation grants. Some of the masters in question contended that they were badly treated, because, on the faith of the Government grant, they had effected insurances on their lives, which they would not be able to continue under the proposed alteration which deprived them of all security. He He did not think that in reality there would be any injus tice inflicted en the body alluded to. It was also said that the Revised Code would be worse than the system it pro posed to supersede; but, as he did not take that objection in the first instance, he was not prepared to do so at present. The right honourable gentle man then went in detail through the alterations which he had embodied in his resolutions, and which the Government had virtually adopted, and he vindicated them at some length. He contended that they ought not to adopt as correct the objections to which he had adverted, but at the same time he impressed on Government the ad visability of limiting the code to a period of two years, when its operation would be sufficiently tested. He could not accept the code as a final settlement of the education question until it was amen tained whether it met the requirements of the country. The right hon. gentleman said that, of course, he would not move his resolutions, but would merely move the first as a matter of form, in order to enable hon. members to express their opinions on this important subject, Mr. PULLER asked whether it was intended by Go vernment that the managers of schools might present any child under the standard for examination. He took ex. ception to different points in the Code, and prticularly ob jected to the reduction in the number of teachers, which he contended was not calculated to secure efficiency in the national education. Mr. HENLEY also objected to the Code in detail, and said that the language used in that document, as regarded the tabulated matter, realised what Tal leyrand had said as to language being intended to conceal our thought, or it was unintelligible to any 1 otdinary Christian. (Laughter.) Had the code remained as it originally stood, he should have felt bound to offer it the strongest opposition, and he censured eery severely the difference which had been made in it between religious and secular education, but at the same time he gave the Govern ment credit for the course which they had pursued in refe rence to a subject of such gravity, and one on which such diversity of opinion might be expected to exist, as that of national education. (Hear, hear.) [LEFT SPEAKING.] LAMBETH ELECTION.—(This Lay.) OFFICIAL DECLARATION OF THE POLL.

A paragraph has gone the round of the papers pretending to show the difference between the civil lists of the Queen and her predecessors, in which it is stated that William and Mary received £700,000, George 11. £800,600, and George 111. £1,000,000 annually, while William IV. had half a million, and the Queen has but £385,000. The difference in all these figures is more apparent than real. The civil list of George HI. was charged with the salaries of ambassadors and all the judges. In the reign of George IV. these charges were separated from the personal income of the Sovereign. William IV. had the same allowance as the Queen, but with the addition of £50,000 a-year added for Queen Adelaide. The £30,000 a-year voted for the Prince Consort does not appear in the sum set down for the Queen. Where her Majesty really suffers in compa rison with her predecessors is in the loss of the private revenue of the Sovereign from the kingdom of Hanover. How much this amounted to w as alwa y s kept a Sta t e secret, but there is no doubt i t was something vary y consi derable. - It has been estima ted at above £lOO,OOO a year. —Court Journal. IMPORTANT TO PRINTERS.--On Thursday, the Ist inst., at the Nottingham Police Court, Wm. Burnett, a machine and pressman, was charged before the sitting magistrate with having left his situation without givi ng the fortnight's notice customary to the trade. It appeared that the defendant, who is " a society" man, had been in the employ of Messrs. Sutton Brothers for some time past, and on the 26th of April he left, having only given notice of his intention to do so late on the Saturday night previous. Defendant stated that no contract was made when he en tered Messrs. Sutton's employ. Mr. A. Sutton said that when he engaged a man it was understood that a fortnight's notice was to be given on either side. Had he wished to d i w b ar ge the defendant he should not have done it without adher i n g to the custom of the trade, which vas to give him a fortnight's notice. That was the regular rule through. out the trade. Mr. Cowley appeared for the defendant, and urged that there was no written agreement between the parties. He hoped that the bench would be of opinion that the week's notice which had already been given, and the week's wages which the defendant had offered to Mr. Sutton, when he heard that a fortnight's notice could only be considered satisfactory, would be sufficient to warrant them in recommending Mr. Sutton and the defendant to settle the matter by arbitration. Mr. Sutton said his only object in bringing the case forward was to maintain the rules of the trade, or else he might be subjected to much inconvenience. Ultimately the case was settled by the de • fondant paying £3, a fortnight's wages, to Mr. Sutton, and 4s. 6d. the court expenses. Mr. Sutton returned the £3 to the defendant. - --- - ETON COLLEGE.—The old adage, " There is many a slip between the cup and the lip," was never more truly verified than on Tuesday, in the appropriation of the vacant rectory of I,Vorplesden, near Guildford, in Surrey, which had become vacant through the death of the Rev, Charles Luxmore. It was generally understood that tho College Chapter was to be held, merelyproforma, to confirm the appointment of the Rev. Edward Coleridge, one of the Fellows, to the rectory, and that gentleman had considered he had sufficient reason to justify him in already making arrangements with the widow of the late rector for the purchase of the parsonage property belonging to her late husband, when, at the eleventh hour, the Rev. George John Dupuis threw up the living he previously held of Maple the senior Durham, near Reading, of the value of about £l,OOO per annum, and claimed the preferment to Worplesd . en rectory, of the value of about £1,200 per annum , as b ein g Fellow to the Rev. E. Coleridge. Consequent!), the latter Worplesden, gentleman takes the living of Maple Durham, instead of, as he had reason to calculate upoa, the rectory of SPORTING NOTES. The Newmarket First Spring ➢teeting commences this day, but there is no event of any importance to be decided. The great race of the meeting will come off to-morrow, and afford some clue to the winner of the Derby. The starters for the Two Thousand will be selected from the following : Probable Riders. Alvediston Brasenose Buckenham .. Basham. Colt by Stockwell Aldcroft. Clarissa colt Caterer Costa Exchequer Gemse IJubert Instructor J. Daley, Knight of the Bath , .. , Laughing Stock Marquis, The .... Ashmall. Nottir-ham sitting Wingrave The decline of Old Calabar originated from the unsatis factory character of his performance in the Bennington Stakes, as well as from the little work he has done since, and has to a very grea t ex t en t o p en ed the Two Thousand, forit will not b e d en i e d th a t h e was by f ar the best public horse of last year, and justly occupied his pride of place in the betting. As is nat ura l w h en grea t f avour it es for any r aoe of importance are in technical language "knocked out," the most ungenerous suspicions are invariably indulged in about all connected with th em. On Saturday he was co ple t e l y k uo cked out of the betting, as much as 10 to 1 havingl been laid that he did not face the starter . [Since the fore going remarks were written I have since learned that Old Calabar was scratched at 11 45 this forenoon.] Alvediston is now first favourite. A month ago I stated in The sun th at, owin g to the shaky p osition of Old Calabar sad The Marquis, it would be better to let them both alone and back Alvediston, as he was a thorough racehorse and was sure to see a short price. He has acquitted himself in his trial to the entire satisfaction of his clever trainer, and in the hands of such an accomplished artiste as Fordham I fully anticipate his success. The Marquis comes as the winner of The Cham pagne at Doncaster and the Prendergast at Newmarket besides two stakes at Pontefract and one at Beverley. Among those that have succumbed to him have been Impe ratrice, winner of the Hopeful, Johnny Armstrong, Zetland, and Carisbrook ; and with Neptunus, the winner of the Con vivial at York, the Tyro at Liverpool, and the Saplings at Richmond, he ran a dead heat, mainly owing to his jocy h a ving had a march stolen upon him. During.the winter he was a good favourite, but upon being put into work in the spring, he showed a great deal of temper. This has been satisfactorily accounted for, and lately he has gone on so well as to allay any apprehensions that might have been enteftained about him. Caterer, in the Findon Stakes at Goodwood, receiving 51b from both Alvediston and Wingrave, only managed to beat them by a head, and that the Woodyates horse ought to have won was patent to everybody. Still, however, it must be borne in mind that Mr. Naylor's horse was out for the first time, and was besides shin-sore ; while hie defeat at York by The Pilot may be excused by the fact of his carrying 61b more than Mr. Jackson's horse. So far as an opinion could last week be formed of him in his clothes, he appears to have grown but little and lengthened nothing, so I much question his "Jollity to cover the ground so rapidly as will be necessary in this great contest. Nottingham has been knocked about by the betting men like a shuttlecock, and there is little doubt of his having been beaten in hie trial with Man-at-Arms ; but as he was asked to get before him at even weights, we are not sur prised at his having been easily defeated, He will no doubt acquit himself creditably in the great contest. Buckenham is certain to run a good horse, for his game ness is undeniable, and the course will be adapted to his stride and action. Wi ngr ave ran a very long way in front of the lot in the Derby Trial Stakes far a horse that was not thoroughly up to the mark, and carrying a penalty. It is now thought the change in the distance, and the extra time Hayhoe will have had with him, will enable him to cut a better figure. In this opinion I entirely agree, and expect to see the Baron's horse one of the first three at the finish, if he does not turn out the actual winner. It must not be forgot that last year he beat Alvediston at level weights. Ace of Clubs is a slashing fme horse, but comes of a family with an hereditary propensity for whistling, At one time he was a good deal fancied for the Derby, but lat terly he has gone quite out of favour. Carisbrook ran well in the Newmarket with a heavy weight, and it would not surprise me to see hint get a place. The colt by Stockwell has come with a rush into the market, having, in a trial, cleaned out ail Lord Glasgow's lot. His lordship's success would be hailed with great satisfaction, but I am afraid the noble lord has ia othmo g good enough in the stable to try his horses with for a race of this description. For Brasenose and Instructor I have no fancy. Argonaut, from Sir Joseph Ilawloy's stable. it is said,, will help to swell the field, but in my opinion will be found wanting. He has no right to bo backed for the Derby. Having stated my opinion of the different horses likely to take part in the race, it will be seen that my fancy points • to ALTEDISTON, THE MARQU IS, or WINGRAVE, to furnlth the winner, and I fully expect to see A LVEDISTON recorded the winner of the Two Thousand Guin,aas of 1862 The field for the One Thousand will comprise tire greater lumber of the following : Probable Riders. Bertha A. Edwards. Black Pearl Bonny Breast-knot -- Cantiniere Ethel Express Gorse Hecate .......... G. Fordham. Hurricane • Imperatrice S. Jung Frau ktogers. Lorelei E. Sh.`trli. Olive Branch .. - J. Adams. Repose Sappho .. % J. Goater. Physalis filly .... The race appears to be reduced to a match between BERTHA. and IMPERATRICE ; the only other likely to terfere with the success of one o f them being Ethel. The Newmarket Stakes is a gift to Duke Rollo, and I have no doubt he will come warm for the Deri!lr) a s I do no t believe Sir Joseph Hawley has a bette r horse in h i s s table. A FRESH MAN.
