The Bank of England retnin completed to the 2d of April is of a rather les.a favourable character.

In the Public Deposits there is no change of im portance, but the private depo6its have been largely added to, and a considerable increase is apparent in the Government Securities. The other items of the balance sheet and the changes they present are shown in the subjoined table : The subjoined table exhibits the various items, and the changes they present : Active Circulation ..

Accommodation is still offered at 2 4 , per cent. for the best bills, and the banks and dipeount houses have extensive means at their disposal whieh they are unable to employ, Owing to the moderate requirements of the com mercial community. About £36,000 in gold was purchased by the Bank authorities yesterday. The final instalment of 20 per cent. becomes due on the 10th instant on the Imperial Moorish Loan. The half-yearly interest is announced for pay- Inent on the Panama Railroad 7 per Cent. Bonds. Rather less animation has prevailed in the Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets during the last few days. Tea, however, has maintained pre vious prices, while there has been a fair demand for coffee at high rates. Sugars have slightly de clined, owing to a pressure of sales, while cocoa, rice, and fruit have only been dealt in to a limited extent, without material change in values. Saltpetre has slightly advanced, while tallow has shown a downward movement as regards prices for both present and forward delivery. In the Liverpool Cotton. Market yesterday busi ness was considerably active, and prices were very arm. The sales were 5,000 bales. The market for Amarican Securities during the past week has shown rather less animation. The subjoined ramarks are from the circular of Messrs. D. Bell, Son, and Co.:—" Daring the past week there has been altogether less activity in the market for American Securities, and prices remain Nvithout material change." CITY NEWS, THIS DAY.

He was committed to prison on the charge.— West quoff OazQttf! BOW STREET THIS DAY. ROBBING A SOLDlER.—Harriet Green was charged with stealing two war medals from John Dixon. The prosecutor, a private in the Ist Battalion of Scots Fusilier Guards, quartered at St. George's Barracks, said— Last night I was ciming along King-street, Covent-gar den, when the prisoner came up to me and asked me some question. I made her no answer, when she snatched the two medals I wore off my breast. I called for the police, and shortly afterwards the prisoner was taken into custody. _ _ Police-constable 169 F said, about 20 minutes to two, I heard the cry of " Police," and the prisoner ran past me. I was inforMed that the soldier had been robbed of his me dals. I then went after the woman, and came up with her in James-street. I told her she was accused of steal ing the medals, and she then stooped down near some rail ings in the street. I procured a light, and then I found the two medals, which I produce. Prisoner—l am sorry I took tho medals, but I was driven to do so by poverty. 1 had not broken my fast all day, and I could not go home because I owed 10s. for rent. Mr. Henry—You could not have converted the medals into money, for no pawnbroker would have taken them in pledge. Prisoner—l am sorry I took them. Mr. Henry ordered her to be remanded, in order that the police might make some inquiry about her. Hannah Rowland, a prostitute, was charged with rob bing James Harris. The prosecutor said he was a carpenter, and that he met the prisoner last night in Ludgate-street. After a short conversation they had some drink at two public-houses, and then he accepted an invitation to pass the night with her, and he went to a house, No. 3, in some street (Exeter street), which he did not know ; and after they had been in the room some time he saw the prisoner take his purse from his trousers pocket and throw it on the ground. He picked it up and found the money, about £6 10s., had been taken out. He accused her of the robbery, and a distur. banes ensued, during which the landlady of the house came up and took hold of the prisoner, shortly after _which the police arrived, and she was Conveyed to the station-house. sovereign off the bed, b u t th e rema i n d er hadile p n i o c t ke b d ee u n p fo o u n n e d . Mr, Henry-You were not sober. Prosecutor—l had had a few glasses; but I think I was. Mr. Henry—You seem to have some doubt about it. The police-constable said when ho was called to the house in Exeter-street he found both parties there drank. Mr. Henry told the prosecutor there would no chance of a conviction as he, the principal witness, had admitted that ho was not sober. The prisoner must therefore be dis charged. Ann Golding was charged With stealing a silver watch, the property of a person named Brett. The prosecutor said he was proceeding down the Strand last night, when the prisoner came up and entered into conversation with him, and while so engaged, ho dis covered that his watch had been taken from his pocket. He accused her of the robbery, when she ran away. The police-constable who took the woman into custody produced the watch which he took out of the prisoner's hand. She was fully committed for trial. MARLBOROUGH-STREET THIS DAY. COMMITTAL WITHOUT A FINE.--- ••• Irr TT .., EOTOILED AS SAULT ON A FEMALE.—William 31 111/Idy, a farrier at Messrs., Meur's brewery, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt a h b e le-looki ng with the following unprovellecl and ruffianly assault on Mrs. Catherine Mieigley, the wife, of a, person in the employ of Mesas. Fearen, wine merchants, of lielborn. female, with a ehil T d he i cnwhnierPalainrmsan,Previous evening she was going to meet her husband, having One child in her arms and one by her side, when the defendant insulted and an noyed her by forcing himself before her and pushing up against her. She told him that she would give him in said t'a th r6 a s t Pe on et t charge, when ho aimed a blow at her, which fortunately missed the child, but was received by her on her face. The defendant also hurt the child by her side very much. Thomas Midgley, husband of the complainant, said— Seeing his wife crying as she was coming along towards him, and finding that she had been insulted and struck by the defendant, who ran away as soon as he had done so, he pursued bim and gave him into custody. Ile believed the defendant, although he hull been drinking, We ll knew what he was about. Defendant said he had been drinking, a n d di d not know what happened. Mr. Tyrwlutt—That may be true, but it is no protection to innocent women walking along the streets. I shall send you for six weeks to prison, and shall make it a rule always to punish for unprovoked assaults as seve re ly as I can . _ _ _ The defendant was then locked up. ASSAULT ON A MISTRESS BY HER SERVANT.-•George Holloway, servant to Mr. David Llewellin, of 35, Duke street, St. James's, was charged with assaulting his mis tress, Mrs. Augusta Llowellin. The prisoner was under notice to leave, and some alter cation took place as-to the amount of wages he was to re ceive. Ho then went dovu.into the kitchen, and Mrs. Llewellin having told' hini to leave, he refused, and then aimed a blow at her, but Mrs.-Llewellin putting up her hand received the blow on it. A constable was then sent for and he was taken into custody. In answer to defendant, Mrs. Llewellin said she did not strike him, nor try to pull him up the kitchen stairs. From the defendant's statement it appeared that there had been several notices to leave from both sides. Mr. Tyrwhitt said the defendant, as he had left, had better enter into a surety to keep the peace towards the complainant. Defendant asked what he was to do about his wages. Mr. Tyrwhitt said, if necessary, he could go to the county court, THAMES THIS DAY. EXTRAORDINARY OUTRAGE.—Elizabeth Armstrong, a vicious-looking girl, about 17 years of age, was brought before Mr. Selfe, charged with breaking windows. A few days since a boy was brought before Mr. Selfe, charged with breaking a pane of glass in the skylight over a smithy in the occupation of Mr. John Griffiths, a smith and augur maker, of No. 61, Penny-fields, Poplar. The mischievous urchin ad witted his fault, and he was locked up until five o'clock in the evening, and then discharged, on a promise made by his father to pay for the damage. Tho money was never forthcoming. Since the boy was discharged, stones, brick ends, and other missiles, have been continually flung at the skylight, and many have passed through and struck Mr. Griffiths and his son. Other persons have been placed in jeopardy. All the efforts of Mr. Griffiths and his family to discover the perpetrators of the mischief proved fruitless until last night, when a boy, the son of Mr. Griffiths, and Sibley, a police-constable, 264 K, were on the watch and saw the prisoner mount a tub in the yard behind the house, No. 1, Elizabeth-cottages, overlooking the smithy, and throw a large piece of brick at the skylight. It went through a pane of glass and struck Mr. Griffiths, who was then working at his forge, upon the head. The prisoner after committing this diabolical act, rushed into her home, and was taken immediately afterwards by Sibley. It also appeared that in the course of the last ten days 133 panes of glass had been broken in the skylight, and other damage committed. A large basket filled with stones, bricks, pieces of tile, and other substances, were found in a water closet in the yard close to where the prisoner was seen to throw the brick. In the earlier part of the day when the boy Griffiths was on the watch the prisoner said to him, " You young - if you watch me I'll out your - eyes out of your head." Mr. Selfe, after a two hours investigation, said he was satisfied of the prisoner's guilt, and she had been guilty of a nasty ill-conditioned spiteful act, and also personally injured Mr. Griffiths, and placed the lives of many persons in great peril. He sentenced the prisoner to be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for ten days. THE WRAY/IBR. PROBABLE TO-MORROW.

The " Benicia Boy" was warmly received on lauding, by a large number of friends who were awaiting his arrival. He ap peared in first-rate health, and his fine open countenance bore no marks whatever of the pugilistic profession, of which he is so distinguished a member, nor were the slightest traces visible of the outs and bruises he sustained in his terrific encounter with Sayers. Heenan's second visit to England is to encounter Mace for the belt and championship, and the friends of Heenan appear confident of success. THIS DAY'S SHIPPING.

TILE WRECK OF THE MARS STEAMER. • The Western Daily Press, speaking of the unfor tunate steam-ship Mars, the wreck of which, with the loss of 50 lives, we announced in ?lie Sun of yesterday, says :—" The captain's name is Blinman, the mate's Marshall, and these and several of the crew were Pill men. The news created the deepest anxiety at Pill. The steamer was the property of the Waterford Ste am Navigation Company. She was of 100 horse power, was of the largest class of steamers,and drew more water than any, other steam vessel from the port of Bristol. The Mars was the favourite boat between Waterford and Liver pool for many years, and finally took the place of the Camilla between. Bristol and Waterford. It is not known how'many of the crew have been saved. A telegram, dated Milford, Wednesday evening, says :—" No further important particulars have yet been obtained. The men saved have gone on to Pembroke Dock. The Mars was bound to Bristol. Portions of the wreck are coming into Freshwater West. The exact number of lives lost is uneertain. A curious case came before the Galway magis trates'on Monday. A girl of the town robbed a small farmer of £B6. There were four £2O notes. It is alleged that a merchant gave £6O in sovereigns for the £BO in notes, but this is yet to be proved. The 60 sovereigns, however, were restored through the confessional. The Rev. Mr. Kear ney was examined and refused to say from whom he got the money, as it was in the confessional he got it, though it might be six months after the confession when he actually received it. The Bench decided that he was not bound to answer tho attorney for the prosecution, and the case was adjourned in order to allow time for making the merchant amenable. • HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE.- - Among the "prime dome enumerated in our notice of yesterday, as engaged for the ensuing season at her Majesty's Theatre, should be included the sisters Carlotta and Barbara Marchisio, who, with Mademoiselle Louise Eiehal, the Swedish singer, have been added since the first edition of the “prOspectus." This makes Mr. Mapleson's company remarkably strong in the ladies' department. COURT OF COM,IfON COUNCIL. The Court met yesterday, inhe Council Cham ber at Guildhall, the Right Eton, the Lord Mayor in the chair. THE INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION. Mr. SNELLING asked the Lord Mayor whether he could give the Court any information relative to the opening of the International Exhibition, and whether the members of the Court were to take any part in it, or to bo invited to be present on the occasion. The LORD MAYOR said he had been in communi cation with one of the commissioners, and he under stood that arrangements were to be made for the invitation of all the aldermen of the City and their ladies, and forty members of that Court and their ladies. BLACKFRIARS BRIDGE. Mr. WM. HARTRIDGE put the following T ies tions to the Comptroller, viz. :—What progress had been by the Bridge House Committee in respect to the plans and estimates for rebuilding Blackfriars Bridge P When the Bridge House Committee were likely to make a report to that Court ; and whether, in the course of their deliberations, they had deter mined on recommending a bridge at Blackfriars of five arches P Mr. BRAND, the comptroller, gave a narrative of the various proceedings that had taken place in re ference to the proposed bridge to be placed across the Thames by the London, Chatham, and Dover Railway Company, and the various plans which had been proposed by them. He said, in the first place, the plan for a nine arch bridge had been submitted to the Bridge House Committee for consideration, but an intimation having been sent to that committee of the appointment of a Royal Commission on the question of the embankment of the Thames, the committee had had to consider whether the prnrosed embahluncnt - would interfere in any way with the bridge which might be erected by the Corporation at Blackfriars. They therefore considered that it would not be prudent to consent to the erection of a nine-arch bridge. Since then the railway company had proposed another bridge with five arches, and upon this plan several engi neers had been called, and the opinions given by those gentlemen were in the course of being con sidered by the committee. Until this had been done, he could not say what decision the committee would eome to. He mentioned that it had been agreed to by the engineers generally that the pre sent bridge was in a sound state, with the exception of one of the piers, and if that pier, and some portion of the arches were rebuilt only, that the bridge would be put in a thorough state of repair, and he might say that the entire question of rebuilding the bridge had only been brought about in consequence of the plan of the London, Chatham, and Dover Railway Company. (Hear.) The matter then dropped. THE METEOEOLIS LOCAL MANAGEMENT ACT AMENDMENT BILL. The Town Clerk laid before the Court a commu nication from the Committee 'of the Commissioners of Sewers, drawing the attention of the Court to certain amendments proposed by Mr. Ayrton, M.P., to be made in the above bill. It seemed to the Committee that the subject was one that demanded careful consideration when before the Committee of the House of Commons, which would be the case in the course of a few days. Mr. Deputy HARRISON said the proposed amend ments could not be discussed that day, but he thought the matter should be referred to the Law and Parliamentary Committee, to act in any way they might think desirable. He then moved to that effect, and the proposition was agreed to. Mr. H. L. TAYLOR asked the Chamberlain whether the precept which . had been received from the Metropolitan Board of Works, due on the 25th of last month, and which amounted to between £16,000 and £17,000, bad yet been paid. Mr. B. SCOTT (the Chamberlain) replied that the fund out of which the amount was payable was not sufficient to meet the demand. The matter had been before the Commissioners of Sewers at their last meeting, and they had requested him to ad vance the money, and that request he should com ply with, and the money would be immediately paid. Mr. H. L. TAYLOR expressed his regret that the city of London had not on this, as on all previous occasions, paid the amount of their liabilities on the day they became due. At the last meeting of the Metropolitan Board they had been reported as defaulters, and it was desirable that the amount should be paid before their next meeting, in order that they might not then lie under the imputation which they did at the present time. MR. PEABODY'S GIFT TO THE LONDON POOR. Mr. Deputy CHAS. REED gave notice of the fol lowing motion, viz., "That the honorary freedom of the City, in a gold box of the value of 100 guineas,be presented toG. Peabody,Esq., an American citizen, in grateful recognition of the princely muni ficence displayed by him in devoting the sum of £150,000 for the benefit of the needy and deserving poor of the metropolis, and of the Christian sensi bility of the sentiments which dictated that the funds thus created should be administered irrespec tive of distinction or nationality, party feeling, or religious belief. THE MERTITTR TYDFIL ACCIDENT. Mr. Deputy LLOYD gave notice of a motion as follows ;—" That the Court do subscribe the sum of £lOO towards the relief of the sufferers by the acci dent at the Gethin Colliery, Merthyr Tydvil." MARKETS...THIS DAY. CORN EXCHANGE. The show of samples of English wheat hero to••day was much restricted. Dry parcels were in moderato request, at Monday's currency; otherwise the English wheat trade was in a sluggish state, at previous quotations. We were fairly supplied with foreign wheat. Good and fine qualities wero in fair consumptive demand, at full prices, but inferior descriptions meet a dull inquiry, on for mer terms. In floating cargoes of grain only a moderate business was transacted, at late rates. •• _ _ _ Malting barley was quite as dear as on Monday, but grinding and distilling sorts moved off heavily at about that day's prices. About an average business was passing in malt, and prices were fairly supported. Good and fine oats changed hands steadily at full quota tions, but inferior corn was much neglected. Beaus and peas were in slow request, at previotis rates. Barrel flour was disposed of slo , kly at the late reduction in its value. Town-made qualities, as well as country marks, commanded but little attention. ARRIVALS THIS WEER. Wheat. Barley. Malt. Oats. Flour.
