MONEY MARKET. CITY NEWS-YESTERDAY. An instalment of 4 per cent. falls due tomorrow on the Russian 5 per cent. loan of £10,000,000, contracted in May at 94. This will make 35 per cent. paid up. The cotton market to-day was dull, and prices were irreguiar. The transactions were limited to 12,000 bales. The American telegrams set all fears at rest as to the safety of the Great Eastern, which had arrived in Flushing Bay. She had, however, sustained damage by striking on a rock, and although the damage is said not be extensive, the shares have been further depressed is. 6d. per share to-day.

The accounts from Frankfort state that the Ger man corn-markets remain dull, with a downward tendency, which has been increased by the cessation of orders from France and Belgium. Hops, it is now estimated, will this year give three-fourths of an average. There was not much alteration in the exchanges this afternoon, but the tendency was still unfavour able to this country, bills being in demand. CITY NEWS---THIS DAY. CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

On comparing these rates with the English Mint price of £3 17s. lOid. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is at about the same price in London and Paris. By advices from Hamburg the price of gold is 4251 per mark, and the short exchange on London is 13.4 per £1 sterling. Standard gold at the English Mint price is, therefore, about 3-liths per cent. dearer in London than in Hamburg The course of exchange at New York on London for bills at 60 days' sight is 127 to 127] per cent., and the premium on gold about 15i per cent. At these rates there is a profit on the importation of gold from the United States. A LESSON TO AUCTIONEERS.—At the Mansion- House, one day last week, William Bracklin, an:auctioneer, was charged with an assault on a Mr. Thomson, which consisted in hiting the complainant a violent blow on the mouth. Defendant pleaded guilty, and was fined 40s. and costs. Servo him right. Auctioneers must be taught not to knock people down.—Punch. BELLADONNA BERRIES.--An occurrence took place in the University Botanic Gardens at Cambridge on Saturday, by which the lives of some children were put in great danger. The gardens, a most alluring promenade, are liberally thrown open to the public, but not to children, unless under escort, though it is needless to say children sometimes succeed in breaking through the regulations. In the department known as " The Physic Garden" are grown, as a matte r o f course, many plants of a noxious cha racter, amongst these the Atropa Belladonna, producing at tchhiesrrayea.soki,hbee:eriweshhavin.g the appearance of a middle-sized ripe are of a violet black colour . and of a sweetish and not nauseous appearance.

The children, however, have recovered .so far 8. to be out of danger, hough they are still suffering severely.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET. A FRENCH PICKPOCKET AND JSIS PUPTLS.—Charles Conde, a Frenchman, and two lads named. Edward Taylor and George Ellard, evidently pupils of the former, were charged with attempting to pick the pockets of several gentlemen in the Haymarket, and with striking the Ser geant. From the statement of Sergeant Joy, 9 C, who had been watching the prisoners for some time, the case was clearly proved, and Mr. Tyrwhitt committed the prisoners to three months' hard labour each ; and the Frenchman, who he had no doubt was the best thief of the lot, to an extra month for the assault on the sergeant. SOUTHWARK. ROEBERY AT JEMMY WELSH'S.—A DISGRACEFUL THIEF.—John Coughlan, potman at the Griffin public house, Church-street, Southwark, was brought before Mr. Burcham, charged with stealing about two dozen knives and forks, a revolver, and a large quantity of drinking glasses, the property of his master. Mr. Welsh said that the prisoner had been in his employ as potman about six months, and he put considerable con fidence in him, owing to his supposed attention to business . Latterly, however, glasses, spoons, and other articles mys teriously vanished from the bar, and no clue could be found as to who was the thief. The prisoner came to him on Monday and charged the female servant with stealing the missing articles, which at once induced him to suspect him. Witness communicated with the police, and a search was made at his lodgings, when two dozen loaves and forks, a five chamber revolver, and a large quantity of wine and other glasses were found, all of which he identified as his property. George Holmes, a detective officer of the M division, said that from information ho received from Mr. William Welsh, the prosecutor's son, he went to No. 1, John-street, Camberwell, yesterday afternoon, and saw the prisoner nailing up a large box. He asked him what he had there, and he said only a few articles of wearing apparel. Wit ness opened the box, and found the property produced, which prisoner acknowledged stealing from his master's house at different times. Mr. Welsh informed his worship that he received a letter intimating that the prisoner was robbing him, but he could not believe it until he charged the female servant. Then he suspected him. Mr. Burcham told the prisoner that he was a disgraceful thief, and he should sentence him to six months' hard Labour. GREAT DESTRUCTION OF PROPER2Y BY FIRE-7111S DAY. Shortly after midnight a call was heard at the various fire stations that a serious fire had broken out in the neighbourhood of Clerkenwell, and the lurid glare in the atmosphere satisfied the firemen that a conflagration of no little extent was raging in the above nam e d l oca lit y. M r. Fogo, the chief officer of the B district,and foreman Garrard, with engineers Perryer and Glyn, were remarkably early in arriving, and also the land steam engine by Shand and Mason, of Blackfriars. It was then found that the fire had taken place in the 'premises of Mr. J. B. Lovell, a picture frame maker, situate at No. 2A, Suffolk. street, Clerken well. The fire, which commenced in the lower portion of the building, was first seen by a constable of the G division. He gave an alarm, and after knocking at the various doors, he succeeded in arousing the inmates, who all for tunately managed to effect a safe retreat. Plenty of water having been quickly procured, the engines set to work, but the fire continued its ravages, and eventually rushed in great columns through the roof and windows, jeopardising the premises of Mr. C. Hunt, a gilder, and igniting the front of the house of Mr. T. Glover, gas meter maker, in Suffolk-street, on the opposite side of the road. The fire men, under the direction of their superior officers, at lengtk got the mastery over the fearful element, but not until Mr. Lovell's premises were destroyed, the contents and stock in trade consumed. The principal loss will fall upon the Phoonix fire office. The skylight and roof of Mr. Hunt are also broken, and the contents damaged by water. The sufferer was insured in the Phoenix fire office. The premises of Mr. Glover have the windows broken and frames scorched, and some damage has been done to the metal warehouse and zino works No. 21, St. James's-walk. The orgin of the misfortune is unknown. Another fire happened in the premises belonging to Mr. J. Campbell, a cooper, carrying on business in Robert street, Mile-end. The engines of the parish and four manual power engines, with the land steam engine by Shand and Mason, were quickly in attendance, and a good supply of water having been procured from the mains of the East London Company's works, the steamer was set to work, but the fire could not be extinguished until the premises were destroyed. This sufferer was uninsured. The origin of the fire is unknown. MARKETS-TIIIS DAY. MARK LANE. A very small supply of new English wheat was re ceived, fresh ap to this morning's market. The trade, how ever, for all qualities ruled heavy, and prices were barely supported. There was a large show of samples of foreign wheat on the stands, In all descriptions sales progressed heavily, on rather easier terms. Floating cargoes of grain met a dull inquiry, at droop ing currencies. Barley, owing to the small supply on offer, ruled km, at extreme rates. The malt trade was dull, and inferior samples were rather cheaper. Oats moved off slowly, and, in some instances, prices ruled the term in favour of buyers. Beans and peas were in limited supply and steady re- quest, at full quotations. The flour trade was dull, and tho currencies had a droop ing tendency. ARRIVALS THIS WELL Wheat. Barley. Malt. Oats.

HINTS ON ETIQUETTE.—Before entering a drawing room, look through the keyhole to see who's there, and adapt your style to your company. If announced by any other name than your own, correct the servant publicly, and, should it be a boy in buttons, kick hire. Should any stranger in the company observe that " it is fine weather," wink slyly, and say, "you mustn't tell :" thus you will gain a character for caution and secrecy. If you have not been introduced to a lady with whom you are desirous of speak ing, address her as "What's your name."—N.B. There are exceptions to this rule. Dancing a waltz by yourself is generally set down to vanity or misanthropy, therefore 'tie best avoided. Should you bump against other couples in a dance, swear horribly at your partner, and refuse to give her any refreshment. Be the first down to supper, eat a lobster salad and anything else you like best; if questioned say "it's for a lady." If on leaving you cannot find your own hat bring an action against the master. We forgot to mention that the hat should be held between the legs during the greater part of the evening, and especially while engaged in a quadrille. On recognising a lady in the street whom you have seen at a party on the previous night, cry out, " How are you—eh ? all right ?" You can jocosely allude to her excessive dancing by a tender inquiry as to the state of her poor feet. Should she not courteously answer your questions, set her down for a bloated aristocrat, and pass on. BOROUGH HOP. Picking being now pretty general, and the result, so far, satisfactory, the business doing in our market is small, yet prices are supported. New qualities are quoted at from £6 to £9 per cwt.

(From the Money _Market Review.) The recent advices from Mexico complete the picture which that country had previously presented of the entire loosening of all the bonds of social order and security. It is somewhat curious to trace the progress of events in that country during the last two or three months, and to observe how they have all been tending towards the consummation now approaching. The inconsiderate conduct of a French officer, who, being sent on a more party of reconnoisance to Puebla, thought fit, without the authority of his command ing officer, to commence a regular attack on a fortified posi- tion, of the strength of which he was unaware, and in which attack he was repulsed, was a great triumph for the Mexi cans. They had beaten the French—it could not be denied. If anything would have imparted vitality or consistency to the existing Government here was the event to d• it. What has followed ? They mustered all their forces under some amount of prevailing enthusiasm. They went to attack the French in their isolated position. They chose their own mode of attack. Their force was superior to the French. They were utterly defeated and driven back ; and since the 14th of June not a Mexican soldier has ventured to show himself in the presence of the French, except as an ally. The generals began quarrelling with each other, Zarogoza wrote to the Government in Mexico (part of his despatch was inserted in a Madrid newspaper), complaining that at the moment of action Ortega, with his men, were nowhere to be found. There has been no rally of military force since, and the Mexican army is, in short, for all practical pur poses, annihilated. At the very same time the Government by every act of violence and tyranny that can be imagined, by ddefiance of the principles of public law and the usages of nations, shows itself utterly incompetent to carry on the political functions of a Government. Nothing could more completely support the Emperor of the French in the course which he has taken than this development of the entire rottenness of the whole Mexican system. Whether it be the Government of Juarez, or Miramon, or Comonfort, it is all alike. An utter want of principle prevails throughout. Happy for Mexico will be the day (and it is not far distant, for it appears that 4,000 French troops had left Martinique for Vera Cruz) when the French commander shall arrive in the city of Mexico, and invite the sober and respectable part of the nation to come forward and choose their own Govern ment, under such a protectorate as France will afford them. As soon as this done, we shall have a splendid trade with Mexico. As regards the bondholders, their rights, we trust, will be permanently secured. We see already that when the allies had possession of Vera Uruz, 90 per cent. of the Customs duties were at once ordered tt, be put aside to meet the bondholders' and other pecuniary claims. Two inter ventors were appointed to see this done. We shall hear no more of " misappropriations" of funds specially dedicated to the discharge of most solemn engagements, when once the new Government is eaablished, and we must honestly confess that we shall have to thank our neighbours across the Channel for doing it. The agent of Messrs. Baring was in the city of Mexico by the last accounts. SHIPPING-THIS DAY.

The service at the Cathedral was accompanied by the organ only. The Rev. Mr. Clark, precentor, chanted the pieces, and the lessons were read by the canons in residence. The service was Croft's in A. The " Venite" was sung to a single chant by Tallis, and the psalm to a double chant by Leslie. The anthem was Croft's " This is the day the Lord hath made ; w e will rejoice, and be glad in it." Tallis's pieces and responses were used as usual. At the close of the morning service the Bishop of Gloucester and Bristol ascended the pulpit, and preached from the text, Revelations, chap. v., verses 11 to 14. The oratorio in the afternoon was Haydn's "Creation," which was given entire, including what are commonly described as the " love songs," in the last part. The attendance was not large, the cathedral being little more than half filled. The whole strength of the choir was put forth in the execution of this wonderful piece. Next to Clara Novello, none can approach Mdlle. Titiens in this peculiar walk of the musical art, and to her was entrusted the soprano airs, " In verdure clad" and " On mighty pens," and her execution of this glo rious specimen of vocalisation made the listener forget Novello herself. Mr. Weiss declaimed the passages descriptive of the creation of the various animals with great care, and Sims Reeves sang the airs " In splendour bright" and " In native worth" in his best style. The band acd chorus were fault less, and as a whole the performance was superb. , CRYSTAL PALACE. The great national brass band contest took place yesterday, and proved a very great success. There were no less than 30 bands entered to compete for the respective prizes, which consisted of musical in struments and various sums of money. The contest attracted upwards of 17,000 visitors. In the prelimi nary competition each band was required first to play a selection from Meyerbeer's "Robert le Diable," arranged especially for the contest, and, this over, each played music of its own selection. In the preliminary trial which filled up the time from eleven till two, a considerable degree of skill was evinced by all the competitors, and the ap plause of the public was pretty generally, and cer tainly quite impartially, distributed. At 3 o'clock there was a general rush towards the centre transept and the great Handel orchestra to hear a grand united performance of all the bands, assisted by the buglers and drummers of her Ma jesty's Foot Guards. The programme was led off by the " Coronation March" from " Le Prophete," in a manner which at once proved the bands to be masters of their profession ; not a note was out of place, and the time was perfect. In the " National Volunteer Artillery and Rifle Corps March," the bands, most of which belonged to the volunteer service, were quite at home ; but they excelled themselves in the "Rifle Gallop" which followed. The great test of mastership was the " Hallelujah" of Handel, and truly it was an imposing perform. ance, when it is considered that the 30 bands were strangers to each other, and had only had the ad vantage of one solitary hour of joint rehearsal. "Rule Britannia" and " God save the Queen" brought the united performance to a close, The first prize of £3O and a handsome silver cup, to gether with a fine contre-bass in E flat, by Distin, were awarded to the band of the Chesterfield Rifle Corps. The second prize of £2O, with " Chappell's Brass Band Journal," to the band of the Black Dyke Mills; and the third prize, of £l5, to the Keighley Band. FUNERAL OF THE ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY. —The remains of the late Archbishop of Canterbury will be interred at Addington on Friday morning next. Although the arrangements have not been finally made, we believe we are correct in stating that the funeral will be conducted as privately as possible, in accordance with the wishes ex pressed by his grace before his death. The chief mourners will be the Rev. John Thomas, D.O L., Canon Resideu tiary of Canterbury Cathedral, his grace's son-in-l a w ; th e Rev. Julia IL Sumner, M.A ., of Uiversity College, Dur ham, his son and chaplain; the Bishop of Winchester, his brother; the Rev. J. M. Sumner, rector of Burston; the Rev. C. V. H. Sumner, rector of Ringwould,:and chaplain in ordinary to the Queen; Dr. Travers Twiss, vicar-general of the province ; and Mr. Felix Knyvett, his grace's secre tary. The pall will in all probability be borne by the Bishop of London; Dr. Croft, the archdeacon of Canterbury; the Rev. John Lingham, M.A., rector of Lambeth; the Rev. Dr. Okes, provost of King's College, Cambridge; the Rev. Dr. Goodford, provost of Eton ; the Very Rev. Dr. Alford, dean of Canterbury; and the Rev. Dr. Russell, rector of Bishopsgate. The coffins in which the Archbishop will be interred are extremely plain, and the outer one bears merely the names and principal designations of his grace, the year of his consecration to the bishopric of Chester, and that of his translation to the archbishopric of Canterbury. The funeral service will be performed by the Rev. M. T. Farm, M.A., vicar of Addington. THE RUGBY SCHOOL SWIMMING MATCHES.— , The annual contest came off on the afternoon of Saturday last, in the river Avon, at the junction of the river Swift. The watermill ceased working, so as to render that part of the river more deep. The diving part of the performances came off first. The purses offered were £1 for the first, and 108. for the second best. There were nine competitors, and the winners were Blackwell, Hart minor, Buckland, and Moultvio, the two last being equal for the third prize. The swimming match 500 yards (250 out, and home), was decided by heats, two of which took place, but owing to its being nearly " calling over time," the finale was left until another time, probably some day during the week. THE NEWS FROM AMERICA.—The only key to the actual value of the further American news yesterday is to be found in the account of the prices of securities at New York. The latest statement is, " Stocks inactive," and, as money is particularly reported to be easy, this would seem to indicate that the battle at Bull Run, which, according to the despatch of General Pope, resulted in the loss of 8,000 Federals and 16,000 Confederates,' cannot, by the operators in Wall-street, have been regarded as a sue cess. Usually each report of the Federal Generals has been followed at New York by a sudden rise in prices, which has been lost only after several days, as the more correct accounts gradually crept into circulation, and the present total absence of even momentary buoyancy must therefore be considered to show either that the veracity of General Pope is more doubted than that of any of the other Federal commanders, or that the public have some other cause to suspect that the position of the contending armies is different from that which has been represented. Under any circumstances, the tenour of the intelligence is more unfavourable than ever to the prospect of an early s ettle , ment. The statement that the Federal Government are very short of arms leads to the expectation that largo fur ther orders will have to be sent to this side.

H. Blundell, of Liverpool, who is at present in Canada with his regiment, has just communicated to his agent in Liverpool his intention of placing at the disposal of the Liverpool committee 5,000 tons of coal for the relief of the Lancashire distress. In a monetary point of view this contribution is the most muni ficent yet given to the relief fund, although Liverpool has acted nobly in the present emergency. A letter from Lindan, of the sth in the Augsburg Gazette, says : ' The cable intended to establish a direct telegraphic communication between Bavaria and Switzer land was yestyday submerged. The total length, as already stated, is 70,000 feet, and its weight 280 quintals. Accord ing to the soundings which have been made, the greatest depth of the Lake of Constance, where the cable will be placed, is 300 feet." The domestic Three per Cent debt of Chili is 2,342,225 dollars. The British debt in Chili is 12 million dollars, seven millions of which were contracted in 1858 to ccuplo Q 11w yalpgain and Santiago Railroad, THE OVERLAND MAIL: (From the Times of India of Aug. 12.) The Benares, with the English mail of July 18, arrived in the afternoon of the 7th inst. Like the Behar the Benares made a remarkably quick pas sage, landing her mail in 19 days 18 hours from London. The English divers sent to Ceylon report the pos sibility of recovering, within a few weeks, every article of value sunk in the Peninsular and Oriental Company's steamer Ava, near Trincomalee. The native who was so severely flogged by Lieut. Jackson (Bengal Engineers) at Dhera Ishmael Khan, has since died, and that officer will be tried by court-martial for murder. Cholera has again broken out at Meerut, and the troops have been moved into camp. It has disap peared from the troops at Peshawur, but has broken out in the city. The French treaty with the Anamese provides against the formation by the latter of further trea ties with any European powers without the know ledge and consent of the French. Meer Afzul Khan, Governor of Furrah, treache rously surrendered:that fortress to S here Allee Khan, the leader of the Ameer Dost Mahomed of Cabool's army, on the 29th June, while the Ameer himself was yet one day's march from that place. The Dinapore military scandals have resulted in the resignation of the Brigadier of that station, Colonel Burney, and the loss of his commission by Lieutenant Crohan, of her Majesty's 35th Regi ment. Nepaul ese A breach has t a k en pl ace between th e and Thibetan Governments, ceased by the murder of a subject of the former at Lassa. The Dhurma.. raj of Thibet has, in revenge, sent to the British authorities a letter written to him by Sir Jung Ba hadoor in December last, declaring his intention to wage war again the British ! The Rao Sahib has been found guilty on the ge neral charge of rebellion, and sentenced to be hanged. The total fall of rain for the present monsoon, it is feared, will be much below the average. A bronze statue of the late Sir Jamsetjee Jee jeebhoy, Baronet, has been placed in front of the western gate of the Grant Medical College at Bombay. Private letters from Persia state that the eldest son of the Shah of Persia has been appointed Go vernor of Ispahan and its dependencies. Kurrachee has been declared a warehousing po r t from the Ist September. The patent for the establishment of the new High Court at Bombay arrived by the last overland mail, and will be promulgated shortly. The salaries of the native judges of the small Cause Courts in Bengal have been raised to 1,000 rupees a month. Colonel Cuthbert Davidson, C. 8., Resident at Hyderabad, died at the Residency on the 2d of August. The rumour that additional troops would be sent from India to China is said to be unfounded. Only the ordinary reliefs have been ordered. A reduction in the native cavalry is officially ordered to take place from the October next. The 2d Poona Horse, 4th Sind, and the 2d and 3d. Mahratta will be disbanded. The disturbances amongst the Khonds of the Boodh district of the Orissa Tributary Mahais, have been suppressed. Captain Smales, late paymaster of the Ennis killen Dragoons, has been charged at the police court with criminal breach of trust on the prosecu tion of Government. The inquiry is still proceed ing. The Star of the South, Captain Renner, which was spoken off Cape Comorin leaky, has put into Trincomalee, and had to discharge the greater part of her cargo. The Meteor, bound hence to Liver pool with cotton, has also put into the Mauritius leaky, and will have to discharge nearly all her cargo. Compton, Judge of Poona, was accidentally drowned at the Sungum on the 12th of August whilst bathing. The body had not been found. 7IIE AFFAIR OF ASPROMONTE. STATEMENT OF GENERAL GARIBALDI. The following letter from General Garibaldi, re lating to the unhappy conflict at Aspromonte, will be read with interest : " On board the Duke of Genoa, Sept. 1. " They thirsted for blood, and wished to spare it. Not the poor soldier who obeyed, but the men of the clique who cannot forgive the revolution for being the revolution—it is that which disturbs their Conservative digestion—and for having contributed to the re-establishment of our Italian family. " Yes, they thirsted for blood ; I perceived it with sorrow, and I endeavoured in consequence to the utmost to prevent that of our assailants from being shed. " I ran to the front of our line, crying out to them not to fire, and from the centre to the left, where my voice and those of my aides-de-camp could be heard, not a trigger was pulled. It was not thus on the attackin g s id e . H av i ng arr i ve d a t a dis tance of 200 met ers , th e y b egan a t r emendous fire, and the party o f B ersag li er i, w ho were in front o f me directing th e i r s h o t s aga inst we,struck me w ith two balls, one in the left thigh, not serious, the other in the ankle of the right foot, m a ki ng a serious wound. at the openi ng o f the con . 1 Ei ic ' t ' "a s n a d l l i this w as happenedcarrie carried to the skirt o f the wood after being wounded, I could see nothi ng more, a th i ck crowd having formed a r ound me while m y w ound which w as at my li tter, an d to that of 1 21 Y was b e neeingd d aides-de-c amp, not a single musket was fired. As there was no firin g on our s id e , it was easy for the troop s to approach and mingle with ours, and, wh en I was told that they wished to disarm orfe thess ed line I feel ce r t a i n, however, that up . us, I replied that the men might dis arm themselves. The intentions of my companions were, however, so little hostile that I only by this disarmed in the crowd some officers and regular soldiers. "It was not so on our right_ The Picoiotti, at tacked by the regular troops, replied by a fire upon the whole line, and, although the trumpets sounded to cease firing, there was at that spot a smart fusil lade, Which lasted not more than a quarter of an hour. "My wounds led to some confusion in our line. Our soldiers, not seeing me, began to retreat into the wood, so that little by little the crowd round most faithful alone remained. so At te this s k m e u u m p, e a n n t d h I the e rned that my Staff and Colonel commanded be Pallavicino, who man fr d e e e d w t it h h e my regular staff t t o r w oo i p th s, were negotiatinbc,u .. the following considerations : —First, that I h draw whereess I ); that, t r , ep h l a i v e i d n , g , On arrived v board t t an e h English v seas hore, the rest of my companions should be set at liberty. Col. Pallavicino conducted himself as a valorous and intelligent chief in all his military movements, and he has not been wanting in respect or courtesy towards me and my people. He showed his grief in having to shed Italian blood, but he had received peremptory orders and had to obey them. My arrangements had been purely defensive, and I had hoped to avoid a conflict, seeing the very strong position that I occupied, and entertaining the hope that the regular troops had received orders loss sanguinary. If I had not been wounded at the outer set, and if my people had not received the order under all circumstances to avoid any collision what soever with the regular troops, the contest between men of the same race would have been terrible. However, far better as it is. Whatever may be the result of my wounds, whatever fate the Govern ment prepares for me, I have the consciousness of having done my duty •, and the sacrifice of my life is a very little thing if it has contributed to save that of a great number of my fellow countrymen. "In the hazardous enterprise in which I and my' companions had thrown ourselves, with heads bent) I hoped nothing good from the Government of Ratazzi. But why should I not have hoped for is rigour on the part of the King, most is nothing the old programme, and h h a a v v in in g g el d a e e c l to alter it at any price ?
