MOSEY MARKET. CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. The monthly liquidation of commercial engage. ments has passed off without the sightest feature of interest. The bills maturing were very moderate owing to the continued inactivity of trade, and the mercantile community had no difficulty in provid ing for all their requirements. The Money Market has retained its quiet and easy appearance, and although gold continues to be withdrawn from the Bank of England for exportation, no further imme diate change is anticipated. There was a further withdrawal of 200,000 sove reigns from the Bank of England yesterday on account of the Turkish loan, and other supplies for the same purpose will no doubt be sent away in the course of a few weeks, while the of is likely to be stimulated by remittances to Russia. In the meantime, however, large imports of the precious metals are announced, and it is satisfactory to know that about three quarters of a million sterling are coming forward from the antipodes. The monthly biddings for bills on India took place at the Bank of England yesterday. The minimum price declared was ls. Hid. per rupee for bills on Calcutta, and 2s. on Bombay and Madras being the same as before. I❑ the Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday busi ness continued active, and prices were again slightly higher. The sales were estimated at 10,000 bales. The last week's railway receipts, ascertained up to this day, are in round figures as under : Great Western 1862. 1861.£58,635 56,509 .north-West ern South-Weste rn Brightonidland M 37,325 33,487 youth 37,3 . 25 20,285 20,909 Great Northern Lancashire and Yorkshire 30,289 37,665 Bristol and Exeter North- E astern 16 948 41 , ,511 Ea stern Countie s Manche s t er, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire 13,371 14,409 Edinburgh and Glasgow Grand Trunk of Canada great Western of Canada These returns, compared with those of the same period of last year, are in some instances more satis factory. On the Great Western there is an increase of £2,026, on the North Western of £1.276, on the 'Midland of £3,838, on the Great Northern of £1,209, on the Grand Trunk of Canada of £1,414, and on the Great Western of Canada of £1,103. The South -Western, however, shows a decrease of £5,539, the Brighton of £10,017; owing to the late period thi s year of the Derby-day on the South Eastern there is a decrease of £624, on the Lanca shire and Yorkshire of £7,376, on the North Eastern of £4,563, and on the Eabtern Counties of £997. With regard to the leather trade the following remarks are from Messrs. Page and Welch's monthly circular :—" The demand for leather has been rather more active during May than for some time past, and a fair amount of business has been done. Prices keep remarkably steady, and buyers seem to operate more freely, evidently considering that the values of leather have for the present reached their lowest point, and that a good harvest or restored activity in the manufacturing districts w ould probably cause an advance. Large sales have been lately made of South American hides, c hiefly Rio Grande, of last season's import, at 6d Per lb, for heavy ox. Buenos Ayres and Monte Video hides have also been sold at reduced prices, though some tanners still hold the conviction that rates Will yet be lower. By the mail just arrived from Buenos Ayres and Monte Video, the ship ment of hides for England and the Continent was progressing satisfactorily, and there is little doubt there will be ample supplies from the South Ame rican ports this season at moderate prices."

IN RE DENBIGH. This bankrupt, described as a Tottenham-court-road dealer in hams and tongues, passed and obtained his dis charge. The accounts, by Messrs. Hart Brothers and Hayles, shows a total deficiency of assets. (Before Mr. Commissioner Holroyd.) IN RE HALL AND HALL. These bankrupts were described of Whitechapel-road, builders, and this was an application for discharge. The debts aro about £1,500, and the :assets insufficient to mee the expeuses of the bankruptcy. Mr. Linklater appeared for the assignee, Mr. J. holding, of Church-street, Shoreditcb, boot and shoe manufacturer, who was a creditor for upwards of £l,OOO for damages and law costs. Ho was, of course, excessively angry at losing such an amount, but as there had been a dispute with Mr. Golding he was afraid he could not bring the brnkrupts within the 159th section of the new aot. There was no doubt, however, that the bank rupts had struggled on in the proceedings and expended their money in the attempt to get the award, which, how ever, went against them, and the consequence was that Mr: Golding was a creditor for £l,OOO, and would not get a farthing. His Honour said that no one appearing to oppose the bankrupts, they might take their order of discharge. POLICE---THIS DAY. EPSOM R. A CES --- THIS DAY, (By ELVOTIC TELEGRAPH.) FOUR-YEAR-OLD STAKES.

A MERCHANT CHARGED WITH THREATENING THE PROPRIETOR OF THE CAFE DE L'EUROPE.-Mr. Joseph Davison, 156, Cheapside, merchant, was charged with an noying Mr. Wm. John Wilde, proprietor of the Cafe do l'Europe, 9, Haymarket, and also with threatening to anni hilate him. Mr. Edward Lewis, of Great Marlborough-street, ap peared for the defendant. Mr. Wilde said at a quarter to one o'clock this morning he was in the coffee-room when he heard the defendant and three others making a great disturbance. The defendant took hold of him and said, " I'll annihilate you if you dare say a word." He (Mr. Wilde) then called his porter and sent him for a constable. On the constable coming he told him that the defendant had threatened him, and asked him to remove him. He told the defendant that he must put his hand on him to remove him, and that if he resisted he 'should charge him with assault. The defendant then turned round and struck at him, but he moved his head and avoided the blow. The constable then at his request took the defendant into custody. By Mr. Lewis—There was a great disturbance in the coffee. room. There were :some foreigners there, and one of them complained of the waiter charging too much. I said the foreigner was a contemptible fellow. The defend ant said he would annihilate the whole in the coffee-room and also outside. 1 did put my hand on the defendant. Two or three of Mr. Wilde's waiters were called, with the view of showing that the defendant and his friends, who had been supping at Mr. Wilde's, were leaving without paying, and that they detained them. Some of them said thakthe defendant used the words, " I'll annihilate you" in the coffee-room. Mr.,Lewis addressed the magistrate at some length, and said that the defendant had been assaultad by Mr. Wilde. Mr. Frederick North, of Leeds, cloth merchant, was called for the defendant, and denied the words " I'll annihilate you" were used in the coffee-room, but admitted' they were used by the defendant in the passage when Mr. Wilde put his hand on the defendant. Mr. Buckely, of South-street, Thurke-squgre, confirmed Mr. North, and said that they bed a deal of trouble in getting their bill from the waiters, having asked for it two or three times. He paid the bill lor himself and three of his friends before they left the coffee• room, and smother friend paid his own bill. They were all sober but one, and he was not quite so. Mr. Richard Glaister, barrister, of 10, New-inn, confirmed the other evidence for the defence. Mr. Knox said he should discharge the defendant, and should make no remarks about the case. The business of the Court, much to the inconvenience of all parties, did not commence till an hour after the pro per time. WESTMINSTER, THIS DAY. WHAM, DAMAGES AND GROSS MISCONDUCT AT TAVERNS. —Eliza Maratan and Frederick Edwards were brought before" the magistrates, the former charged with wilfully breaking a pane of plate glass, and the latter with attempting to rescue her. . _ Harry Jarrett, barman to Mr. Woodward, the proprietor of the Lord Nelson, King's-road, Chelsea, said that at an early hour that morning the female defendant came to the bar, and began making a disturbance. She was told to leave, when she refused, and was then put out, upon which she broke a valuable pane of plate glass. She was then taken into custody. and on her way to the police station the male defendant came up and endeavoured to take her from the constable. Police sergeant 35 B said he saw the female defendant break the window, and took her into custody. Male defen dant then came up, and laying hold of her by the hand, said she should come with him, and pulled her and witness half across the road. Male defendant was then taken, and went quietly. Female defendant said she was put out of the house without good reason. Male defendant said he had been drinking, which would alone account for his foolishly interfering with a matter that did not concern him, Mr. Arnold—This sort of case has become very frequent of late, and must be put a stop to. Persons going into pub lic-houses and conducting themselves in a disorderly way are very properly put out, in return for which they turn round and break the windows. In all these cases lan fully determined to support the tavern-keeper, and shall, therefore, treat the offence with severity. I shall commit you, Eliza Maratan, for 10 days to hard labour in the House of Correction ; the male defendant must enter into his own recognizances to keep the peace for three months.

OUR COMMERCIAL RELATIONS WITH BELGIUM Mr. BEAUMONT gave notice of a motion this subject. REPORT OF THE POOR-LAW INSPECTOR (IRELAND). In answer to Mr. MAGuntE, Sir R. PEEL said that Mr. Horsley had made his offi cial report, but it would be establishing a bad precedent if confidential communications to the Government wets made public. Mr. ItIAGUIRE asked fora specific answer to his ques tion, namely, as to whether the report in question would be laid on the table. Sir It. PEEL said ho would rather not produce the document in question. COLONEL BENTINCK. _ In answer to Mr. CONINGIIAM 7 Sir G. LEWIS said that the retirement of Col. Bentinck did not take place in consequence of the warrant to which the hon. member referred. It had been usual to treat cer tain cases of retirement as exceptional, and the one in ques tion was of that character. There was no favouritism shown to Colonel Bentinck, and on the contrary both he and his friends were of opinion that he had been treated with great severity in being compelled to retire. With re spect to Captain Robertson and his superior officer, he took on himself the responsibility of what had taken place. WOODS AND TRUSTS. In reply to Mr. TOBRENS, Mr. PEEL, hi the absence of Mr. Cowper, said there was no power iu the Commissioners of Woods and Forests to sell any portion of the woods and forests which be longed to the Crown, THE MURDER OF M. TIIIEBAULT. In reply to Mr. SCULLY, Sir R. PEEL said it was proposed to charge the four townlands in the neighbourhood where the murder was committed the expense of the police which had been sent to the locality. Of course, as he had stated, the townland of the murdered man's brother would be exempted from the tax Mr. WHITESIDE drew attention to the attempted mur der in Ireland that had been reported in the papers this morning, and asked the right hon. gent'eman (Sir It. Peel) whether any steps would be taken to repress these murders? Sir H. PEEL said that it was true that another attempt had been made on the life of a gentleman in Ireland, but he was fortunately only shot in the arm. Government were taking all the stop , in their power to put an end to these crimes, and a commission would be issued between the 15th and 20Th inst. THE INDIAN BUDGET. In reply to Sir H WILLOUGHBY and other members, Sir C. WOOD said he could not pledge himself as to when he should bring on the subject of Indian finance. Mr. BRIGHT expressed a hope that Government would not imitate the practice of their predecessors in dela3ing to deal with important questions relating to India, and he drew the attention of the house to the state of Lancashire, and the anxiety that was felt in reference to any progress that might be made in respect to the growth of cotton in India. THE STATE OF IRELAND. Lord PALMERSTON moved that the house at its ris ing should adjourn until this day week for the Whitsuntide holidays. Mr. MAGUIRE availed himself of that opportunity appealed to the noble lord at the head of her Majesty's. Gto vernment on a matter personal to himself and of greaatrisn rest to the people of Ireland. He had been tert in that house, and nobody could accuse him of makingyedelibe rately a false statement. From time to time hehadbrought forward, with pain and humiliation, the u b r ject of the pre sent distress in Ireland. The ho n. me be s rthenHors urged upon p the noble lord to produce th e of Mr. ley, in order to satisfy the feelings of Irrieshoirnembers who concurred with him as to the distress prevailing in 171. After some observations by Mr. ScuLLl, Lord PALMERSTON said that he had not seen the re port of Mr. Horsley, but he.would look into the document, and if there was nothing objectionable in it he would lay it on the table, o r if otherwi se he would direct the substanc e of it to be submitted to the house. With reg ou a a i n • n d ttdrhy to aotfw so t hmheine s remarks of the last speaker (Mr. Scully), he drew the attention to the fact of the h differencerif this feelings Ireland pre vailed in!the minds ofratempaelosple country in regard to c crime was committed the public joined in'end' eavouring to bring the criminal to justice ; but in Ireland thepublic en deavoured t, scram him. Lord FERMOY traced the feeling in favour of criminals in Ireland to a want of confidence in the laws of the admi nistration of justice. He contended that feeling must Mr. WIiiTY,SIDE considered that a commission was unnecessary, and that a vigorous administration of the law would be the best means for repressing crime in Ireland. necessarily increased in consequence of the injudicious con duct of the Secretary for eland in insulting the priest hood and the Irish members when they endeavoured to draw attention to that distress in Ireland, the existence of whic h he was compelled to admit. (Hear, hear, from the Irish members.) Sir J. BOWYER contended that there tvould be no security for the preservation of the peace of Ireland until that country was regarded as being a Roman Catholic country, and treated accordingly. After some remarks from Mr, LEFROY, After some remarks from Mr. LEFROY, Sir G. GREY said it had been property stated by the last speaker that Government had taken upon themselves the responsibility of adopting efficient measures for the protection of life and property in Ireland, and I he wished to state that the Government felt bound to un dertake that responsibility. If police were actually en gaged in tracing out the persons engaged in the recent murders in Ireland, a commission would shortly be issued. Ho referred with pleasure to the fact that these murders in Ireland had nothing whatever to do with dissatisfaction towards the Government, and he was happy to hear it stated in the course of the conversation that a great number of the Roman Catholic laity in Ireland approved of the policy pursued towards Italy.

This afternoon a suicide of a most terrible description was committed by a person occupying, we believe, the position of cashier to Messrs. Soares and Co., wine mer chants, No. 4, Mark-lane. The uahappy man, it was rumoured, had been very unfortunate in certain racing speculations, and his losses, which amounted to over £2,000, produced such a terrible effect upon him that as one of the heavy provision waggons of the Messrs. Todds, containing about 4 or 6 tons of goods, was passing along Fenchurch-street, he rushed from his offf!,e and threw himself under the vehicle, one of the wheels of which went over his head and completely crushed the brains out of his skull. The desperate act was seen by a great number of people, and every effort was made to pre vent the unfortunate man from carrying out his design of self-destruction, but without effect. The lifeless body was conveyed home, and when the shocking circumstance became known to his wife it had such an effect upon her nervous system as to produce in sensibility. BANK OF ENGLAND.

A report on the division on the motion for leave to introduce the Ballot Billwas received, showing the actual vote to be as follows : Ayes B5 Noes .. 52 Pairs Tellers 2 Tellers 2 This completely refutes the allegations in the Times, that the ballot as a parliamentary question is going down. The following resolution was agreed to :-- " 1 het this committee begs to tender its best thanks to Lord Fermoy, Sir Charles Douglas, M.P., Mr. White, M.P., Mr. E. H. J. Craufurd, M.P., Mr. Gore Langton, M.P., and Sir J. V. Shelley, M.P., for the valu• able aid which they gave to Mr. Berkeley, M.P., in bring ing in his bill for vote by ballot, and it feels assured that the assistance thus rendored to the cause of freedom of elec tion, will be appreciated by the friends of the ballot in all the constituencies of the kingdom." Tt was reported that the Ballot Bill had been brought in and read a first time, and the second reading fixed for Wed nesday, July 2. Instructions were given to the officers of the society to communicato with friends in the constituen cies to secure a full attendance of the members favourable to the measure, at the division on its next stage. The re sult of the Shrewsbury election having been reported, and the fact that the cause had gained a supporter by the elec tion of Mr. Robertson, a ballot man, the following resolu tion was agreed to : " This committee congratulates the electors of Shrews bury on the return of Mr. Robertson, M P. for that borough by which a difference of two votes will be made in favour of the ballot ; and points to the large majority by which he was returned as a pleasing proof of the popularity of a really Liberal candidate, as contrasted with that of the half. and-half men who have lately appealed to various con stituencies in vain."

PLYMOUTH, Tuesday.—The Orient, 1,032 tons, belonging to Messrs. James Thomson and C o ., L on d on, sailed last evening , w ith 60 cabin and intermediate passen gers, a full general carga, and 3(1 valuable rams, for Ade laide. This is the ship the cargo of which (2,400 bales of A us tralian wool) ignited spontaneously on th e 2d of Jan., last year, shortly after touchin g a t the Cape of Good Hope. When the ship was cleared out in the London Docks 12 of her timbers and five beams were found so much burnt and charred that they had to be replaced, as well as all the main d e ck from the mai n h a t c h way forwora Her repairs, which were most compl e t e, cost about £2,000. When the fire broke out the passengers were transferred to a Dutch merchant. roan commanded by Captain Vanzanten. Capt. Lawrence then poured water into the hold until he smothered the fire. H e ran t h e vessel to Ascens i on an d di sc h arg ed the injured porti on o f hi s cargo th er e. In recognition of ser vices rendered on this occasion, the Board of Trade pre • sented Captain Vanzanten with a gold chronometer worth £lOO, and various insurance companies presented ono piece of plate to Captain Barnard, Governor of Ascension, an other to Captain Lawrence, and the sum of £BOO for distri bution among the master, officers, and crew of the Orient. The wool is supposed to have ignited in consequence of its being packed in a damp state when pressed or " dumped" by hydraulic machinery for stowage on board ship. EXPORT OF FIREARMS FROM BELGIUM.—The export of firearms from Belgium, which in the first four months of 1860 amounted in value to 3,399,000 fr., and in the year 1861 to 4,397,000 fr., has in the same period of this year reached the sum of 7,010,000 fr., being an increase of 60 per cent. on 18 61 , and of 100 pe r cent. on 1860. . From the returns published by the Belgian Moniieur, ale imposn sible to know to what coun tries those arms have gone, se amou nt of 2,565, 000 fr. is set down as hav in g been sent to s e‘ France, where the import o f t hem is prohibited, and they can co nsequently have only gone there in trans i t ".

A Marseilles letter says:—" M. Lambert, the envoy of the King of Madagascar, has not made a long stay in Rome, as he has returned here in the Capri," DEATH OF GENRRALSAN MIGUEL. The Madrid papers of the 30th of May announce the death of General Evaristo San Miguel. Of such men as San Miguel Spain may well be proud, ' for he was a gallant gentleman worthy of her best days. San Miguel was a native of Asturia. He was born in 1780. He entered the army as a volunteer in 1808, when, on the signal given on the 2d of May in Madrid, th e Sp an i s h people fie to arms, and soon proved to Europe that the Bayonne Junta, who basely sold their country to Napoleon, did not represent the Spanish nation. In a few years he rose to the rank of Lieutenant-Colonel; joined the army of Cadiz in 1812 ; and was elected member of the Cortes of that city for his native province. He was placed on the retired list of the army after the restoration of Ferdinand VII., who repnid with the blackest ingratitude the services of those who had bled in his cause. He founded the Espectaclor newspaper a few years after, and was one of its ablest and, for those times, most coura geous writers. When the tyranny of Ferdinand destroyed all hope of liberty in Spain, he joined the expedition of the unfortunate Riego in 1820. He was one of the first victims of the reaction that soon followed, and was exiled to Zamora in 1821. Ferdinand was unable to stem the tide of public opinion; he tried wh a t dissimulation, in which he was an accomplished adept, cou l d de. He affected to yiAd to what he could not control, and accepted a Liberal Ministry. San Miguel was recalled from his banishment, and offered the post of Minister of Foreign Affairs, which he accepted. In accordance with the secret treaty of the Con gress of Verona, which declared th e h os tili ty of th.a great Powers—Austria, Franc e , P russ i a, and Russia—to atnhe, above establishment bvneata t the e o of liberty constitutional a f th a press, go vernment, d as incompatible with the principl e o f monarchy, France was charged with putting down at all cost the Liberal movement in Spain. Each of these G o . vernments addressed a note to the Madrid Cabinet in which these opinions were expressed, and sum. moned it to return to the old system; and their ambassadors resident in Madrid were ordered to demand their passports in case of refusal. San Miguel, as Minister of Foreign Affairs, replied to those notes. He declared that the Spanish nation, 12 was governed by a const i tution formally recognised thnaant constitution, which w E h m a p i e n r Emperor o f Russia in promulgated 81 that ; b n y iar th ds e which had been put down by violence in 1814, were not perjurers as they were called, but the organs of the nation's will ; that the constitutional Sovereign of Spain was in the full enjoyment of the preroga. tives granted to him by the constitution, and th ose who maintained the contrary were enemies of their country and calumniators; that the Spanish nation had never interfered in the domestic concerns of any other country ; that the evils of which the great Powers complained were not caused by the constitution but by its enemies; that the Spa nish people never would admit the right of any foreign Power to intermeddle in their internal affairs ; and that his Majesty's Government would not deviate - from the line which national honour and its unvarying adhesion to the constitu tion of 1812, and which it had sworn to observe, had traced out for it. These notes and the answer to them were submitted. The Cortes, "faithful to their oath, and worthy of the people they repre sented, would not allow the constitution to be altered or modified but by the will of the nation, avid in the manner and form prescribed by it." The Ambas sadors demanded their passports ; they were handed to them the following day, the 11th of January, 1823, by San Miguel. The French Government lost no time in entering on the honourable office of executioner allotted to it by the Holy Alliance. Eighty thousand troop s , under the command of the Duke d'Angouleme, crossed the Bidassoa, and opened the campaign which closed with the capture of Cadiz. San Miguel quitted Madrid when he could no longer be useful, and joined the bands of Mitaa in Cata lonia. In the warfare of the mountain be greatly distinguished himself. He was wounded in almost every affair with the French, and in an engagement with the enemy's cavalry in 1826 he received a sabre cut in the head so deep that it astonished those who saw it many years afterwards how any one could have survived it. He was taken pri soner, and soon after released, on condition of quitting Spain. The home that the gallant exile sought was England ; and in England, where he maintained himself by his daily toil, he resided until 1834, when the amnesty promulgated by the Queen Regent, Maria Christina, who required the support of the Liberals for her daughter's throne against the assaults of the Carlists, enabled him and others in the same circumstances to return to their native country. tsouplitpheoertlas some time after named by the Que e . r o f Cortes. liberalf A n o e ragon and continued monarchial t waso Government, be e e l theec te d deputy warnaenesand Captain-General t of the dynasty of Queen Isabella. He was appointed Captain-General of the Basque Provinces in 1842, under the regency of Espartero.

The revolution of 1854 called him once more from his retirement. Whenafter a fierce struggle for existence, the Sartorius Ministry was overthrown, and Madrid left without a Government, the Queen, kn ow i ng she could confide implicitiy in tll3 honour and loy a lt y of the veteran of liberty, named San Miguel Ca ' Captain-General of Madrid and Minis ter of War, or, more properly speaking, Universal Minister, until such time as Espartero, who had I been summoned from Logrono, arrived in the ca pital. San Miguel, on the first breakiug out of the Vicalvarist movement in July, had been named President of the Junta that met in Madrid to aid, and at the same time control O'Donnell, in ease of success. Himself a soldier, no man was more averse from military rule than San Miguel, and both O'Donnell and Espartero were held in check by the Junta, which was the nucleus of the Union liberal. On the success of the revolution, San Miguel was raised to the rank of Field-Marshal, and named In spector-General of the National Militia. He was elected deputy to the Constitutional Cortes, of which he was for some time President ; and he recorded his vote for the maintenance of monarchical govern ment in Spain. O'Donnell, who had l on g been trying to get rid of Espartero and keep the supreme authority in his own hands, effected his coup d'etat in 1856 ; and Espartero once wore, and probably for ever, retired to Logrono. By the previous Go vernment San Miguel had been appointed Com mandant-General of the flalberdiers, or the House hold Guard. By old usage, the post could not be a grandee of the first class ; and San heldi buelut by wa s a plebeian. The Queen did not hesi tateM to confe r on Lim the indispensable qualifica tion. She raised him to the rank of grandee, with the title of Duke de San Niguel, and maintained hire i n the post. As a grandee and Field M ars h a l be sat by right in the Senate, where he supported Liberal Gover2ments to the last. Whatever may hive been the faults of the Pro gresistas, as a political pally, and their faults were many, their bitterest enemies never denied them the merit of probity, and of those who were, most noted for a virtue so rare in revolutionary periods, San Niguel stood among the foremost. In private life he Was one of the most modest of men, toleran t, gentle, courteous, and affectionate.
