MONEY MARKET. CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. There is still a tendency towards increased activity and firmness in the general discount mat het, although the movement hitherto has been of little importance. The mercantile community are in the position to negctiate securities as low as 2, and in exceptional cases at 2 per cent., and the available supplies of floating capital appear to be exceedingly abundant, A small quantity of gold, viz., £3,000, was pur chased by the Bank authorities yesterday. No material alteration took place in the Conti nental exchanges yesterday afternoon. Gold is now about 2-10ths per cent. dearer in London than in Paris, but about 1-10th per cent. cheaper here than in Hamburgh. In the Liverpool Cotton Market, yesterday, busi ness was inactive, and prices were steady. The sales were estimated at 4,000 bales. The half-yearly dividend at the rate of 10 per cent. on the Ecuatorian Bonds has been announced for payment. _ _ The traffic receipts on the Lancashire and York shire Railway for the past week show a decrease of about £5,000. The failure was announced yesterday afternoon of Mr. J. G. Vallentine, merchant, whose liabilities are estimated at 1200,000. The assets, however, are expected to prove very satisfactory. The fol lowing circular has been issued to the creditors "4, Cullum-street, London, May 6, 1862. "I regret to have to inform you that in consequence o' the non-arrival of anticipated remittances, I am under the necessity of suspending payment. " Messrs. Coleman, Turquand, Youngs, and Co., have been instructed to prepare a statement of my affairs, which will be submitted to a meeting of my creditors at the earliest possible period. In the meantime, requesting your for beargnce, I am, your obedient servant, " J. G. VALLENTINE." CITY NEWS---THIS DAY. Two O'CLocic.

On Friday last, a man, named Thomas O'Connor, assumed the garb of a Catholic clergyman, and pro ceeded to Bray by railway. Captain Richard Dug gan of Kingstown, who is a little disabled in the limbs, slipped on the platform, when the supposed clergyman ran to his assistance. The captain thanked him for his kindness, but the bland O'Con nor told him not to mention it, that he was only too happy to be of any service. When the train was about to start, his would-be reverence was getting into a third-class carriage, when the captain in ___ terposed, and paid the difference between a third • and a first-class fare, and travelled With O'Connor to town. _On the journey • they 'conversed most familiarly, and "the gentleman in black" represented himself as a priest travelling for subscriptions for the erection of a church. The captain gave the zealous collector five shillings as a subscription. When the train arrived at the terminus the captain invited his friend to join him at dinner. The invitation was accepted. Dinner was not ready when they arrived, and the captain went with his newly made acquaintance to a bedroom. The captain being a little weary from his journey, lay down on his bed to have a nap till dinner was announced. He pl ace d a purse, in ,which contained over £7O notes under hi s pil• low, and in a short time fell ' asleep. In about `half an hour the reverend gentleman came down stairs, and took his departure, wishing the servant • womi the enjoyment of the choicest b l es s i ngs. When - . inner was ready, , the captain was ca ll e d, d t it was then discovered that the purse was emp y. O'Connor was nowhere to be found, but the police were put upon his track, and he was eventually captured in Dublin. The police :however found • upon him £56 of the cap tain's money, a French story book, and some music elegantly bound. He had also stowed away -on his person the designs and plans of the intended - new church, and a number of documents, which proved that the distinguished artist had "raised the wind" by offering to get persons situations, and that he had advertised himself as a situation agent. —Freeman's Journal.

CCURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (B,fore Mr. Registrar Roche.) Ix RE JONES. This bankrup was a hosier, at Tottenham, and this was a meeting for choke of assignees. Mr. T. Beard Lppeared for the petitioner, and put in a list of creditors vho had proved their debts, and proposed a Mr. King, warekieseman, in the City, but a counter pro position was mate by a widow lady, who proved her debt by power of attolie - c, and was not in attendance. Mr. Beard cbjectad, and said the trade creditors wished for a trade assignee, and not an old lady of 75. The learned Registrar said that was not desirable, but he suggested there should be a joint assigneeship. Mr. Beard said that would be worse still ; some very ant'quated notions night be brought forward not at all con sist eat with present views. The Registrar gild he could not decide ; the question was one for the Commissioner, and he should adjourn the choice till the last examination. (Before Mr. Commissioner Fane.) :N RE MORGAN. This bankrupt wasdescribed as of Poppin's• court, Fleet sttret, dairyman, an/ this was a meeting for last exami nation. Air. Beard opposed, on the ground that the bankrupt had unfairly got rid of his property. His Honour said that if persons would denude themselves of all their property lefore they came to this Court they must take the conseqtences. The case would be adjourned. Bankrupt would be a lowed to come up at his own expense, or the petition would be dismissed. SECONDARIES' COURT. (Before Mr. Potter and a Common Jury.) EXTRAORDINARY CASE . OF TRESPASS AND EJECTMENT. - DAMAGES £150.--PAW SON V. SMITH. This was a writ of inquiry sent down from the Court of Common Pleas to assets the damages laid at £l,OOO under circumstances detailed as under by the learned counsel for the plaintiff. Mr. Griffiths, for the plaintiff, said that there were in the south side of St. raid's Churchyard, some very exten sive premises known as St. Paul's Hotel, and it was in reference to those premises that the present proceedings arose. Mr. Pawson cbtained a lease from the Dean and Chapter of St. Paul's for a period of 21 years, and he found that under a former lessee there was a sub-lessee, who again let to the defendant, then in possession and carrying on the hotel. When ylaintiff made known to defendant that he had become lessee of the premises, defendant's term had nearly expired, but 'le begged plaintiff would allow him to remain for a short tiro € longer. This was permitted, and defendant offered plaintir £2Ol to be allowed to remain for three months more, Plaintiff granted this request, and defendant continued in cceupation ; but upon a certain day defendant wrote to plaintiff that, acting under the advice of his solicitor, ho declined l o come to any terms with plaintiff, who had said defendant hid no right or title to the premises. Under these circumstances plaintiff sued out a suit of eject ment, which defendant o/posed, but unsuccessfully, before a judge, and the trial wet ordered for hearing, when sud denly defendant turned ratnd and admitted the wrong. He (the learned counsel) pointed out the expense to which plaintiff had been put, Qui urged the loss sustained by plaintiff, as defendant not ~n ly refused to quit the hotel, but actually shut it up, and to this day plaintiff had been unable to gut a tenant. Mr. Needham, for defen/ant, consulted with his client, and the result was a verdict for £l5O. POLICE - THIS DAY. BOW-STEEET, THIS DAY. THROWING BOILING WATER OVER A BOY.—James Williams, who keeps a ccffeeshop in the neighbourhood of the Seven Dials, was charged with throwing a quantity of boiling water over Charle; Creasy, a boy about 12 years of age. The boy Creasy said—The saucepan was on the fire in Williams's back room, ant I was in the passage. He had been quarrelling with mymother, and I had taken her part during the row. I saw lim take up the saucepan, and I ran away, but he followed and threw the hot water atter me. It scalded the back 07 my head. Mr. Abrams, the solicitor, who attended for the prisones, asked the witness whether his mother was not living with Williams a , his wife? The witness replied she iad done so for five or six yearn. Mr. Abrams—Did you B - 4 your mother throw a bottle at the prisoner. Witness—No; I didn't. Mr. Abrams—Did he thrcw the water at you, or at her ? Witness—Ho took up the saucepan to throw the water at her, but she got out of the way, and then he threw it at me. Mr. Henry —lt would not alter the case if it were so; the law is that if he threw it at her, and it missed, and went over the boy, that would be an assault. Mr. Abrams—l am quitiaware of that, but then it makes a aifference, I submit, in a degree. The mother of the boy and the prisoner had been quarrelling, and she bad given him great provocation. I believe up to the present time my client has always treato4 the lad with kindness. He now extremely sorry for what has occurred. I am not offering these remarks to your worship as an excuse for what the prisoner has done, but I am bound to point out that the case, bad as it is, does not arise out of a deliberate attack on the child who had given no provocation. The mother of the boy contradicted many of the state ments put forth on the part of the prisoner. His conduct to her had been very bad, and the should have left him long ago, but being without money she was compelled to remain with him. She had pawned all her clothing at the request of the prisoner, and if she attempted to look after a situa tion in the shabby things she row had on, which were all she had in her possession, she was certain to one would employ her. She was willing to leave him at that moment if he would but give her some money to get clothes with. Mr. Abrams said, if an arrangement was permitted, the prisoner was willing to make a provision for the woman and her son. Mr. Henry remarked that pity for the poor woman and her child would induce him to consent to any such arrange ment; but he wished it to be distinctly understood that he was not influenced by any merciful consideration towards the prisoner, whom, on the contrary, he had determined to send to prison without the option of a tine if he did not sa tisfy the mother and her boy. He looked upon the assault as one of a very cruel nature. The poor fellow's bandaged head and scarred face showed tiat he had suffered very severely. Mr. Abrams--The scars on the boy's face arose from other causes—certainly not from hot water. Mr. Henry—Well, if the prisoner knew that, that was an additional reason why he should not have thrown the water over him. The parties then retired, and after a short absence, Mr. Abrams said he would agree that the prisoner should be bound over for six months to keep the peace towards the complainant and her son—that he 'would provide the furni ture and clothing according to the list drawn up by her— and that he would pay to the party appointed by her to re ceive it the sum of 10s. Gd. per week for their support. Mr. Henry said he would reserve his judgment for three months. During that time he would take care to be well informed as to how the prisoner performed his part of the contract; but of this he might rest perfectly satisfied, that if he omitted his payments, or in any way annoyed the poor woman, ho would send him to prison without the liberty of paying a fine. IMPERIAL PA LIAM EN T. HOUSE OF COMMONS--Tats DAY, The SPEAKER took the chair shortly after 12 o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The Banstead and Epsom Downs Railway Bill was read a third time and passed. PETITIONS. Petitions were presented by Sir B• Colabrooke, Lord E. Scott and Mr. Finley, From various places in Scotland, against certain portions of the Publichouses Act Amend ment Bill. COUNTY COURTS PROCEDURE BILL. Mr. M'MAIION moved the second reading of this bill, the chief object of which was to give to parties suing in the county courts the same right of appeal which they had in the superior courts. In the county courts, where the sum sued for was under £2O, the decision of the county court judge was as absolute and irrevocable as the fiat of any Turkish Pasha, and that was a state of the law which he considered ought to be altered. It was, in fact, giving the county court judges a penal power over the person f the party sued ; and there was a case where a debtor was by +he judge consigned to prison for thirty days when the debt was only tenpence. He did not wish by the measure to give the right of appeal in all cases, but only when the judge might see it necessary to giro leave to appeal. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL opposed the measure. The procedure and practice of the county courts were in a great measure above the observatit n of the bar, or of the class of attorneys and solicitors, and were in fact confined to the County Court judges themselves. It, was, therefore, those parties who were best able to decide as to the work ing of that procedure and practice, and having obtained the opinions of the majority of the judges of those courts, he was bound to say that they were all opposed to the provi sions of this measure. Besides, that five out of the eleven clauses of the present bill—namely, 2,7, 9, 10, and 11 were all taken from the Common Law Procedure Act of 1852, and were in operation at the present time in the procedure and practice of the county courts. Of the remaining six clauses, three had relation to interpleaders, as to giving these courts jurisdiction to entertain equitable defences; and one, the eighth clause, to give the right of appeal. lie considered that the adoption of any of these clauses would have the effect of interfering with the original purposes for which the county courts were established, and he must, therefore, oppose them. Ho had communicated with the county court judges, for the purpose of ascertaining if any amend. ment could be made in some portions of the county court procedure, and on receiving their reply it might be necessary to found a measure on their suggestion, and in these circumstances he would move that the bill be read a second time that day six months. Mr. HENLEY considered that having now almost re leased the upper and middle classes of imprisonment for debt, it was unjust and unfair that the poorer classes sued before the county court judge should be consigned to pri son simply upon the caprice of the judge. He thought that was an anomaly in the law which ought to be amended. Mr. AYRTON also condemned the present system of imprisonment for debt as respected the lower classes. If a man can manage to contract a debt of £2O or upwards he would not be permitted to get into a prison, but might release himself from the whole of his debts, while the poor man, who could not manage to contract a debt of £2O, was cast into prison for the small debts he had contracted, and had the whole of his goods taken from him. Sir G. GREY said the state of the law was certainly an anomaly, and would receive the attention of the Govern ment. After a few words from Mr. MWAHON in reply, in the course of which he stated that were the County Court Judges consulted, as proposed by the Attorney-General, no alteration of the law would ever take place, the socond reading of the bill was negatived without a division. SMOKE NUISANCES (METROPOLIS) ACTS; AMENDMENT BILL. This bill passed through committee, and was negatived without amendment. PUBLIC HOUSES (SCOTLAND) ACTS AMEND MENT BILL. On the order of the day being read for going into com mittee on this bill, Mr. CRAUFURD moved as an amendment, "That in the opinion of this house it is not expedient to sanction any further legislation on the subject of Public Houses in Scotland which does not consolidate as well as amend the present acts." In moving that resolu tion, he was not opposing the measure before the house ; but as there was much uncertainty and difficulty respecting the existing law on the subject, what he wanted was, that the matter should be postponed with a view to the consoli dation of the existing acts of Parliament, by which the public-houses system in Scotland was regulated. All he wanted was, that the House should not be called upon to add confusion to confusion, which they would most certainly be doing by adding this confused and unintelligible act to the others equally confused and unintelligible which already existed. Mr. BUCHANAN having seconded the amend men t, _ _ Mr, MURE, who has charge of the measure, opposed the amendment, on.the ground that the adoption of it would be the means of postponing all legislation upon it for the present session. All the public bodies in Scotland had petitioned the house in favour of the measure,; and that at all events showed that the measure in their estimation was not so confused and unintelligible as the honourable and learned gentleman seemed to insinuate. [LEFT SITTING.] PARLIAMENTARY DIVISION. HOUSE OF COMMONS.-MAY 6. MAYNOOTH COLLEGE.

She was found to be lunatic and in the afternoon was forwarded to the Brentwood Asy lum.—Essex Telegraph.

Garrett, a labouring man, was charged before Mr. Tyr. whitt with annoying Mr. Herbert Allcorn, licensed victual ler, 31, Great St. Andrew-street. Mr. Edward Lewis, of Gi eat Marlb,rough-street, ap peared for the complainant, and said he had for some time been so much annoyed by the defendant, his business at times being completely upset, that he must ask that the defendant be put under heavy bail. Mr. Allenrn Gait] the prisoner was in the habit of coming to his house sometimes drunk and sometimes sober, and using the most disgusting language towards him in the presence of his wife and daughter. He came three times to his house on the previous day, and on each occasion made use of the most violent language, challenged him to fight, and then went outside and behaved in a similar man ner. At times be interrupted his business, assaulted his customers, and several of them had left his house in con sequence, and his conduct collected mobs round his house. Mr. Tyrwhitt, having ascertained that the prisoner was a dealer in birds, ordered him to find two responsible house keepers in the sum of £2O each to be bail for his good con duct for six months. THAMES. A FEMALE SAVAGE. — Catherine Regan, an Irish basket woman, was brought before Mr. Woolrych charged with cutting and wounding Julia Fitzgerald, her rival in busi ness and the affections of a tall fellow who stood near the pro secut rix. The complainant said that between 12 and 1 o'clock this morning she was on her way home, and was accosted by the prisoner in Glasshouse -buildings, Rosmary-lane, who said " I have caught you now, and mean to serve you out," and immediately struck her with a spit, and broke it with the force of the blow. The witness presented the remains of the broken spit, and turning round exhibited to Vie magistrate the surgical plaster on the back of her head where she had been wounded. The witness added that the prisoner had repeatedly threatened to do for her, and she was in anticipation of further illusage. Julia Bryant confirmed the statement cf the com plainant. The prisoner set up an alibi, and said she was in bed with her mother from Marrowbone (Marylebone) at the time meni lotted by July. She then called Catherine Macarthy and Bridget Donovan, who deposed to being present at an Irish row, at 2 o'clock this morning, in Cherubim-court. The row had nothing to do with the case against the pri soner. . Mr. Woolryc- , fined the prisoner 10s.or 7 days imprison ment.

At the Liverpool Police Court yesterday a well dreesed young man ? who stated his name to be Arthur Wellesley Simmons, was brought before Mr. Raffles, the stipendiary magistrate, charged with having stolen a quantity of watches and other articles of jewellery from his father, who resides in London. A few days ago a communication was received at the Liverpool detective station from the metropolitan police, giving information of the rob bery, and stating that suspicions were entertained that young Simmons had gone to Liverpool for the purpose of taking a passage for some foreign country. In consequence of this the Liverpool police were put on the qui vive, and about 12 o'clock on Monday, officer 262, from some information which had been given him, proceeded to the Crown Hotel, in Lawton-street, where he apprehended the prisoner. The prisoner had been remaining at the Crown Hotel since his arrival in Liverpool a few days ago. In his bedroom the officer found 5 chains, 26 rings, 12 brooches, 8 lockets, 3 breast-pins, 2 seals, a pair of shirt-links, and 2 eye-glasses, all of which articles were gold. In addition the officer also found upon the prisoner's person and else where 19 pawn tickets, having reference to watches; ten pounds in gold and silver coin, a quantity of miscellaneous jewellery, new clothes, and articles suitable for the outfit of a person about to take a foreign voyage. In one of the pockets of the pri soner a document showing that he had taken a passage to Australia i❑ the Black Ball ship City of Melbourne, and had paid £5 deposit, was found. When apprehended the prisoner said he had been in his father's service as shopman, in Led bury-road. Bayswater, London, and had left on the Ist of May and came to Liverpool, bringing with him the jewellery which had been found in his possession. He had sold two gold rings for 255., a gold watch and chain for £2 35., and a gold breast-pin for 7s. the case was remanded, in order that the metropo litan police might be communicated with. MARKETS-THIS DAY. MARK-LANE, The fresh arrivals of English wheat to this morning's market were small, yet the trade was in a sluggish state for all qualities, at fully Monday's decline in the quotations. There was a fair average show of samples of foreign wheat. All descriptions sold heavily at barely Monday's prices. Floating cargoes of grain were in slow request, on about former terms. The barley trade was in a sluggish state, and the curren cies had a drooping tendency. Good and fine malt was firm as to price; but inferior qualities commanded very little attention. The oat trade was in a sluggish state, yet no quotable change took place in prices. Beaus and peas were in short supply and fair request, at full quotations. All kinds of flour sold heavily at about previous rates. ARRIVALS THIS WEEK. Wheat- Barley. Malt. Oats. Flour. Eng1i5h........ 493 i 520 1,690 .630 ; 450 sack , .
