) the addi sgate ction and MONEY MARKET AND CITY 1V EIITS. CITY, Two o'CLocK. The Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets during the last few days have shown rather less activity. Tea has been dull, but a few dealings have been reported in the new season's crop, at late quotations. Sugars, owing to the high rates de manded by holders, have been in some measure neglected, and full prices are current in the Refined Market. For coffee there has been a steady inquiry, and fine descriptions of Plantation Ceylon have realised an advance. Rice has been inactive, bat quotations are steady. A fair amount of busi ness has been transacted in fruit, at previous rates. Saltpetre, however, has been inactive, and a down ward movement has taken plate in the value of tallow. P.Y.C., on the spot, is quoted GOs. 9d., and spring delivery GOs. 6d. to 61s. per evil. The attendance of home and foreign dealers at the public sales of colonial wool has been above the average during the past week. For the better descriptions of Sydney and Cape wools there has been an active competition, and the rates established at the commencement of the sales hare been well maintained. A decided improvement was exhibited in the Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday, both in the demand and in the values; particularly as regards American descriptions, which were td. per lb. highor. The sales amounted to 10,000 bales. The interest on Russian 41- per Cent. Bonds will be paid on and after the Ist proximo. A meeting has been convened of the Ecuador Land Company, "for the purpose of declaring a bonus out of the profits of the Company, and appro priating the same in part payment of the capital of shares to be issued in respect of shares now sub scribed, and other business." Although the minimum rate of discount remains at 6 per cent., accommodation is obtainable in the general market on lower terms. The opinion being generally prevalent that a reaction will take place, the mercantile classes limit their demands as much Ile possible; while the banks and discount esta blishments for the same reason are more willing to employ their resources even at lower quotations. Intelligence was received yesterday afternoon to the effect, that the contract for the £16,000,000 Turkish Loan had been signed at Paris by M. Mires, the capitalist, who it was announced some time since would undertake its negotiation. The Fulton has been announced from New York with £B,lOO in specie for England. Very little business has been transacted in the English Stock Market to-day, and the quotations, although temporarily flatter during the morning, are tolerably well maintained. Purchases effected by the broker who operates for the Court of Chan cery assist in supporting values. Consols are 931 -7,- for money and 93.11 for the account. The transac tions of the investing public are very limited. The New 3 per Cents. are firmer at 91i 2, the Reduced are rather flatter 91-1- the New 21 per Cents. remain at 772, India Loan has improved to 103 - t, ditto 51 per Cent. Enfaced Paper to 101, and the Debentures to 961. Exchequer Bills are steady at 613 - to 2s. dis. _ _ Business continues moderately active in the Foreign Market, and prices show increased firm ness. Turkish 6 per Cents. are 73 to 731 ; ditto New, 581 to 59 ; Portuguese have improved to 46; Brazilian 41 per Cents. to 891; Venezuelan to 211; and Peruvian 3 per Cents. to 73; ; Russian 3 per Cents. remain at 621 ; and Spanish at 491. Business in the Railway Share Market has been rather restricted, and a slight depression has taken Place in several of the British undertakings, Great Northern, Lancashire and Yorkshire, South-Wes tern, and North-Eastern (Berwick) declined 55., and Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincoln, 10s. Midlands have advanced ss. and Caledonians 15s. The Foreign and Colonial Markets have been exceedingly dull, with no alteration of importance in values. South Austrian and Lombardo-Vene tian realise 13k; Grand Trunk of Canada 221 ; Great Western of Canada, 11-1 a. Joint-Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares have been inactive without any material change in values. Union of London have improved ss. BRITISH FUNDS—ONE O'CLOC K. Bank Sto c k 3per Cent.

WALBRooK WARD. THREE O'CLOCK. Lawrence 6B 59 Linklater Majority for Lawrence 9 --- LONDON AND NORTH-WESTERN RAILWAY.—We are pleased to learn that Mr. Robert Savill (the assistant secretary of this company), who has during the last 27 years been closely connected with the progress and prosperity of the undertaking, has so far recovered from his serious indis • position that, in the opinion of his medical advisers, it is probable he will be able to resume his duties within a short period.—Morning Herald.—[We sincerely trust it may be true.—En. Sun.] REPRESENTATION OF PEMBROKESHIRE.—Two o candidates_ are in the field for the representation of the county f Pembroke, void by the elevation of Viscount na zlyn to the peerage as Lord Cawdor. These are Mr. L. s Philli p , the master of the local hunt, and a conservative in pohtics, and Ai r • Hugh Owen, who comes forward on independent p rinciples. I n hi s address to the electors, Mr. Owen says— ` I advocat e aa no extreme opinions, I deprecate rashness on the one side Ido a stand-still timidity on the other. Change is not is ne cessarily i an improvement be cause it is change, neither gress which the exigencies _ wisdom to resist the pro of the time req uire . I claim elect th ere fore, should you do me the ho nour t o uil pledged and unfettered course of action," It me tis Ba , id that Cawdor both parties will go to t h e poll. Lord giv e s his in fluence to Mr. Lort Phillips. SOUTHWARK ELECTION.—A deputation waited on Mr. A. H. Layard yesterday afternoon, in consequence of a resolution passed at a large and most influential eme t lag held at Mr. Healey's, the St. Georg Ens Tavern , ,c3t. George's-road, South wark. The learned g e ntleman ac cepted the invitation he ld out to him, and we have reason to believe that Mr. Layard's address will be im me di ately issued. His talents and capacity will doubtless render bim a formidable candidate. ACCIDENTS ON THE ItITER.—At an early hour yesterday morning a schooner, heavily laden with coals, was sailing up the river, and when near the Kentish shore at New Charlton, she was rill into by a brig, and received such injuries that she rapidly filled with water, but the crew escaped. She now lies in a very singular position, completely on end, her stern in the water, her keel resting on the mud, and her bow uppermost. About the same time, a heavily laden vessel, in tow of a steam t u g , b y some un explained means got into shallow water near Blackwall, and became so embedded that steam power was unable to extri cate her; and at low tide she now lies high and dry. Loss OF LIFE BY FlRE.—Yesterday an acci dent of a most heartrending nature occurred at the residence of Mrs. Dodd, 26, Botolph-lane, Tower-street, which un happily ended in the death of Ellen Margaret Dodd, 10 years of age. The deceased was taking a kettle off a kitchen range, when her dress was wafted by the wind against the bars of the grate, and she was quickly enveloped in flames. Her screams brought assistance, when the flames were extin guished., and she was conveyed to St. Thomas's Hospital, but expired shortly after her admission. We all know that regimental colours are con secrated, and generally find their last home in the aisles of a cathedral, or in the Hall of Chelsea; but in 1763 the colours of the 25th Regiment, then commanded by Lord W.Lennox, having been riddled with shot at Minden, and hanging in mere strips from the staff, were interred in Newcastle-on-Tyne, with military honours. On the other hand, the standa rds captured at Culloden were burnt by the common hangman.—Once a Week. THE ISMAIL.—This vessel, some days over due, With a valuable cargo from Havre to Liverpool, was spoken yesterday off the Isle of Man, by the steamer Ostrich, which attempted to pass a t ow li ne b u t f a il e d.

JUDGMENT.-ADA 3 ISON V. THI TRUSTEES OF THE BIRKENHEAD DOCKS. The Lord Chancellor said the question in this case is whether the Birkenhead Dcck A(t of 1855 deprives Mr. Adamson of the right to get payment of the debt due to him by the trustees ; that there should be a deduction from his debt without any equivalent ; that he should receive no more than 13s. in the pound in place of 20s. in the pound —the Act of Parliament could not have committed such injustice. His Lordship considered that Mr. Adamson had a lien on the land purchased from hint by the dock trustees, end that he was entitled to full payment of the price. The 4,5, and 17 sections of the Act provides for the full pay ment of the price of land purchased by the trustees, and it never was intended to deprive him (the ;vendor) of one third of the price of his land. There was no agreement entered into by him with the trustees to make any deduc tion whatever from the price of his land. He dismissed the appeal with costs. (13tfore Vice-Chancelba Wood.) JUDGMENT - HODSON Y. WEEKES. The plaintiff filed his bill to set aside an agreement, dated 25th March, 1851, for a lease of a mine by the incumbent during his incumbency, on the ground that the patron and ordinary had not consented to the agreement, and for in junction to restrain the defendant from working the mines. His Honour the Vice-Chancellor declared the agreement unlawful, and directed an account to be taken of the work ings of the mine, and ordered the money in court to be ap plied in the improvement of the vicarages and payment of costs of suits—the agreement to be delivered up to the plaintiff to be cancelled, reserving further consideration of the cause, with liberty to apply. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH. (Before the Lord Chief Justice and Justices Hill and Blackburn.) EXPARTE LIEUT. ALLEN. Mr. Sergeant Shee having obtained a writ of habeas in this case, the Solicitor-General and Mr. Welsby this morn ing showed cause against it. It appeared from the statements of the learned counsel that Lieut. Allen had been sentenced to four years' impri sonment by a court-martial at Agra, and that place was fixed upon as the place of his imprisonment. The Mutiny Act and Articles of War, however, required that the court martial or the officer commanding in the district, should specify the place of imprisonment. On the 24th Nov. he was removed to Cawnpore, thence to Calcutta, and subsequently to England, where he was confined in the Penitentiary at Milbank. It was contended that no competext authority had sanctioned his removal, and that he was illegally con fined in custody and entitled to be discharged, the officer of the district having fixed upon Agra as the place in which he should be imprisoned. On the other side it was urged that the sentence being four years imprisonment it was a matter of no moment in which of her Majesties gaols he was confined. The Lord Chief Justice said little as the court would desire to relieve this gentleman from the punishment to which he had been most properly sentenced, unless it was shown that the prisoner had been removed under the order of the proper officer as required by the 41st section of the act, via., the officer commanding the district garrison or colony, they would be bound by law to discharge him. On this state of the facts, the Court doubted not that Lieutenant Allen was illegally in prison, and must be discharged. The Court was clearly of opinion that this imprisonment could not be legally maintained. lf, therefore, the learned Solicitor-General could show to-morrow that any proper authority for re moval of Lieutenant Allen had been given, this decision would not be considered final. The Solicitor-General said he had no reason to believe that he could produce any such authority. He would, however, make the necessary inquiry. THE ROAD MURDER. Na application respecting the reopening of the coroner's inquest had been made up to the time of going to press. POLICE INTELLrGENcE—(TRIS DAY.) MARLBOROUGH STREET. ANNOYING A COFFEE-HOUSE KEEPER.—Mr. James Wilson, 4, Groat Ryder-street, gentleman, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with the following singular behaviour : Mr. John Saul, builder, St. James's-street, Haymarket, and also a coffee-houso keeper in Castle- street, Leicester square, said that defendant came into his house on the pre vious evening, and having asked his barmaid for two cups of tea, began pulling her about in a very indelicate manner. She called to him for assistance, and he put him out, and while doing so he attempted to strike him, but he warded off the blow. Phcobe Sutch, barmaid to the complainant, said that, having served the defendant with two cups of tea, he began taking liberties with her. She called her master, and he put the defendant out. She saw him attempt to strike her master. A cabman here stepped forward and said he wanted Os. of the defendant. Ile had engaged him at half-past nine, in St. James's-square, telling him to drive him to the Cafe Chartant, Leicester-square, which he did, and then to Castle-street. Finding that he was likely to keep him some time, he told him he had better take him by time, and he did so, keeping him till nearly one o'clock. The defendant told him to go into the coffee-house and ask for a Miss Burns, and he did so four or five times, tho defen dant sitting in the cab, but at last going into the house himself. The defendant kept him the whole time occupied. Mr. Tyrwhitt asked the defendant whether he was willing to pay the cabman, and he said he was, and did so, at once kanding the money to Welsh, the gaoler (,f the court. Mr. Tyrwhitt—With regard to the other charge, it is clear you went to the complainant's house seduced by the charms of Miss Burns. You will have to make some com pensation to the complainant for the assault; and I must bind you over to keep the peace towards him for six months, for I shall not let it pass off so easily as you think. 23, 18'60: THE SIEGE OF GAETA. French papers have published, the following letter from Gaeta :—" On the ni , ght of the 10th the Piedmontese began to give of life. They threw 50 or 60 bombshells into the Neapolitan camp atthe gates of Gaeta. The soldiers have made a mound of Piedmontese shells, which produced little or no effect. They merely - wounded three or four rneu. While the firing wan taking place the Piedmontese advanced on the road from Mola to Gaeta as far as the Devil's Tower. Siege guns and ammunition have been landed from the Sardinian ships for several days past. A battle took place yesterday morning on the hill of the Capucines, between our'riflemen and the Piedmon tese Bersaglieri, which lasted all day. I was look ing at it from the top of the fo'.-tifications. Five or six hundred riflemen, NO-10 were relieved according as they were fad.igued, held firm against several battalions c.f . Piedmontese, It was really ,an interesting sight. Several French naval officers expressed their admiration of the steadiness with which. The Neapolitans fought. They advanced shoulder to shoulder and at one time I saw the Pi e d montese retreat. In the mean time, the Piedmontese might have been outflanked by other troops who Were unemployed. No as sistance, nevertheless, v as given to the riflemen, except that a few g•cenades were thrown from the batteries of Gaeta, which fell among the Piedmontese and caused them some loss. We could distinctly see the Bersaglieri fall under the fire of the Neapolitans, who . on their part did not lose many men. Towards :evening the Piedmontese, who were not less than 3,000 or 4,000 strong— that is, seven to one,--gained ground. The Nea politans retreated slowly under the batteries of the town, and during the night all the troops were brought in from the camp. The Piedmontese left from 20 to 30 prisoners in the hands of the riflemen. Will you believe that the officers had abandoned the camp before the troops were called in ? It is really a pity that the soldiers, who are so willing to fight, should always be so badly commanded. It is said tha tIGO or 180 soldiers of the foreign legion who remained too late in the direction of Terracino were taken prisoners. Yesterday was remarkable for acts of cowardice and treachery. First, Colonel I Pianelli, brother of the ex-Mipister of War, led the 15th battalion of Chasseurs into an ambus cade, and commanded them to lay down their arms in presence of the Piedmontese. The second case was that of Lieutenant-Colonel Nunziante, who suffered the Bth Chasseurs to fight without an offi cer to command them and returned to Gaeta. Gen. Bertolini, the chief of Marshal Salzano's staff, sent to visit the advanced posts, and who returned to say there was nothing new, without having left the town, was cashiered and expelled. The King had been informed by another officer that the troops composing the Neapolitan and Piedmon tese advanced posts were amusing themselves together. In truth it was nothing new. Generals Salzano, Barbalonga, Collonna, and Polizzi have resigned. Colonma had the audacity to write that if his resignation were not accepted he would pass over to the enemy with the troops under his command. These generals quit Gaeta to-day. I think that the above facts will sufficiently describe our situation. General Cialdina has at length consented to accept Garibaldian prisoners in exchange for Neapolitans. 1,200 Garibaldians were exchanged yesterday. They were sent from the Castle to Mola, where an equal number of Neapolitans were collected.

The men in Mahomedan countries are expelled, as we all know, from the inner chambers, whether in tent or seraglio, and the Empress was left alone for some time with the ladies of the establishment. What paced has only been vet y lately discovered, in consequence of the hard pressing of Dr. C—, whose quick perception enabled him to discern that an unnatural cause must exist for the un natural state in which the Empress was plunged. It seems that, while within the tent, the chief's wife, who was a woman of superior intelligence, having been told that Eu ropean ladies were most curious to see some of the magical ceremonies of the Arabs, had called a Babalouk, a negress who, gifted with the second sight, professed to tell the future destinies of the consultant. The negress, entering in a state of frenzy, disclosed to the Empress the dying condition in which her sister then was lying—the fatal consequence which would ensue—and, after having given warnings of dire import,which it would be indiscreet to mention kere,bade her hurry back across the seas, and never more trouble the Arab in his tt.nt. The impression was so fearful that, owing to the exact account by the negress of her Majesty's early history, a conviction of the truthfulness of the future as well as the past took such hold of the Imperial mind, that her Majesty, as we know, refused to attend the ball offered to her by the city of Algiers ; and when, on landing in France, she learnt that all was over as had bean predicted, she felt no doubt that the rest of the prophecy would prove true, and I began from that moment to despair." THE NEW TURKISH LOAN. The arrangements for the new Turkish 6 per Cent. Loan of £16,000,000, to be introduced by the banking-house of M. Mires and Co. at Paris, have been completed, but the precise terms are not yet known. A portion of the £3,000,000 of Hazine Tavilis which fall due in December is to be received in payment. The contract price is still said to be 534; that at which it will be offered to the public remains to be fixed. Some rumours, which seem improbable, represent that 60 is to be named. The London 6 per Cent. Loan of 18.58 is only at 581. To account, however, for the higher pretensions of the new issue, it is asserted that it is to be secured by the re ceipts of the custom-houses in Syria, which are certain to be vigilantly protected by French arms. Still in no case can this lien be superior to that held by the English bond holders on the Customs of Constantinople. According to the reports in circulation, the cession of the Syrian Cus tom-houses has been for some time past a point of diplo matic contention, the Sultan having with great reluctance yielded to the urgency of the French demands. BRAWLING IN A CHURCH.—A great deal of ex citement was occasioned at the church of St. Peter, Clifton Wood, during the evening service of Sunday. The Rev. Canon Girdlestone preached a powerful and effective ser mon there, in the course of which he made reference to false witness, and, as he was doing so, a tall, powerful looking man suddenly rose up in the midst of the congre gation, and exclaimed, "That's true ; I be -- if it aint." This interruption caused much consternation. A policeman was called in, and the man was apprehended and removed to the station-house, when it was found that his name was Nash, and that he had once before been in custody on a similar charge. He was consequently locked up for the night, and was brought before t he magistrates Monday, when the charge was prove d, and the prisoner day s, with committed to the House of Correc tion for seven with hard labour.—Bath Chronicle.

A DISGRADEPUL AND SANGWINARY APPRAY.—Johanna Ccrnish, a masculine and savage looking woman was brought before Mr. Selfo charged with assaulting Catherine Smith, who appeared in court with what the Magistrate has so often described as the London Hospital head dress, sur gical bandages with the words London Hospital painted thereon in large capitals. The two women are members of the frail sisterhood, and frequent the classic land of Shadwell. Last night they met in a public-h , Juse in the High-street, and quarrelled. As the complainant was emerging from the house, the pri soner flew upon her like a tigress, and struck her repeatedly on the head and face, inflicting severe wounds. The blows wore accompanied by the most infamous language and threats, and the complainant was left upon the ground weltering in her blood, and was conveyed upon a stretcher to the London Hospital. She lost a large quan tity of blood. Her elothes were saturated with gore, and she was in a very weakly condition. Mr. Selfe asked the complainant why she left the hospi tal in the frightful condition she was in ? Witness—l must go back at 4 o'clock this afternoon. Mr. Selfe—Get back as soon as you can. He then sen tenced the prisoner to 14 days' imprisonment and hard labour. A Turin letter of the 18th says :—"I have already mentioned that Garibaldi would be on the scene again ere long. I find a further proof of that assertion in a letter dated from Caserta, Nov. 6, and addressed by himself to the committees of as sistance, the same which organised the expedition to Sicily. Here it is Brethren, you have well served the country; Italy owes in part to your efforts the deliverance of its southern provinces. Do not separate ; do not leave your undertaking incomplete. What you havo done for Naples and Sicily you must also accomplish for Rome and Venice. The artifices and meannesses of others should stimulate your zeal instead of discouraging you. The end must be attained. You will see me ever ready to hasten to the spot where the standard of Italy and Victor Emmanuel shall be raised.' This language is clear and precise, and you may be certain that it will be attended to by the persons to whom it is addressed." BANK OF UPPER CANADA.—With regard to the position of this bank, the last advices from Toronto men tion that a meeting had been held between representatives of that institution and of some of the other leading banks of the province—namely, the Bank of Montreal, the Commer cial Bank, and the Bank of British America. The object apparently was to obviate any feeling of uneasiness that might have been created by the recent allegations against the management of the Bank of Upper Canada, and to de vise measures of mutual support in case of necessity. An arrangement is stated to have been come to under which they will sustain each other with specie on any emergency. " The banks," it is observed by the Toronto Leader, " are in the habit of receiving one another's notes as a mat ter of course, but the mutual confidence is henceforth to lead to a more extended mutual support. Under the new arrangement nothinc, but a universal panic such as sometimes takes place during a period of commercial crisis, can deprive any one bank of a supply of specie that is for all practical purposes unlimited." The same journal refers to rumours bearing on the probability of the Government deposits being withdrawn from the Bank of Upper Canada, and announces that they are totally without foundation. At the same time a denial is given to an assertion that the Government have become responsible for the advances made by this bank to the Grand Trunk Railway. The security for those advances consists of pro perty belonging to the Grand Trunk Company in three States of the American Union—Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine, and which "is of the most undoubted character and ample in amount." The question whether such secu rity, however ample, can in any case be regarded as strictly suitable for banking purposes is not discussed, but a de claration is put forth that "not a dollar of the amount ad vanced by the bank to the Grand Trunk Railway Company is in peril." It is understood that Mr. Kirkman Daniel Hodgson, of the firm of Finlay, Hodgson, and Co., is the Bank director who will be recommended in March next to succeed Mr, Latham es Deputy-Governor. 144 15 - 22 31 5 61 30 32 35 37 18 20 13 15 111 115 24 25 28 30 99 1(1. 106 ICB 93 96 2 1 21 2} - - 11 1 (1 1 1 11 21 i 11 1 1 } pr 8 50 74 76 13 14 17 174 p 17 19 5 6 44 46 120 1%5 34 35 i I 5 4 7 } 8 10 PARLIAMENTARY SPEECHES. On Wednesday evening a dinner was given to the Mayor of Derby, Mr. Cox, at the Royal Hotel in that town. After the usual loyal toasts, Mr. Bass, M.P., after a few remarks, said,—Gentlemen. much has lately been said, and, as I believe, not altogether unjustly, with regard to the great waste of public time by unnecessary speech-making in the House of Commons. I agree with Mr. Gisborne that the House of Commons has to some extent been depreciated in the estimation of the public; It has been said that we have done very little for the public, and that we have left undone a great deal that the country expected ns to do. Be it so; but I can assure you that, though comparatively fe w good results may have accrued from our labours, there has been no lack of real hard work. (Hear.) I do not think that in any session of Parliament upon record there has been a greater—or perhaps so great—an amount of labourin the House of Commons as during the past sitting. Indeed, I for one felt so exhausted that, as 1 have stated, I was obliged to appeal to your kindness for relief. It is quite true that the result is not what one would have wished to see under other circumstances; but whose fault is it? Why, gentlemen, in the first place, you sent two parties to the Commons pretty equally balanced, so that each is capable of frustrating the measures of the other. If you have two cooks in your kitchen with equal authority, and one says you shall have roast and the other boiled, you stand. a good chance of not having any dinner at all, especially if you have a maid anxious to sup plant one or the other, and take his place. (Cheers and laughter.) However, I am not quite `sure — looking to what has been, and is, passing around us, if we might not have done worse by doing too much, instead of too little. (Hear, hear.) Our facetious friend, to whom we always listen with feelings of approval, and whose jokes, though pun gent, are generally harmless, and therefore well meant, is inclined to debar certain members of Parliament of the luxury of much talking. (Laughter:) That, doubtless, as regards the public convenience, and the health of the sometimes re luctant listeners, 'is a grievous fault. But, after all, the talking is done, and the public time consumed, by comparative few talkers. When I tell you that during the past Session 10,473 speeches were de livered, can you wonder that so little real business was done, when there was so much talk? (Hon. and Rev. F. Curzon-6. So much tongue.'') Yes. Well I will show you how few members are charge able with this grave fault. Notwithstanding Cabinet Ministers have to speak on most questions of public importance—the able and distinguished Chancellor of the Exchequer, to wit; Sir George Cornewall Lewis, who never utters a word more than is necessary to elucidate his meaning ; Lord Palmerston, one of the most genial of men, and one who displays so much ability and tact as a leader of the Commons ; Lord John Russell, one of the most Parliamentary leaders of the time; Sir John Pakington, Mr. Henley, Lord Stanley, one of the most rising politicians of the day ;—these great Par liamentary men, occupying the important positions they do, never speak oftener than is absolutely requi site ; while Lord Stanley with his great ability, only spoke nine times, some private members spoke at least 200 times in the last session. (Laughter.) Now, I don't wish to disparage anyof the speakers, for sorue of there are undoubtedly able debaters, but when I tell you that some of them spoke at least 100 times, and others as often as 200 times, I think I give you a pretty good reason why so little has been done. (Hear, hear) For instance, Mr. Ayrtou, a clever man, spoke 217 times ; Mr. E. James, Q.C., spoke 196 times ; Mr. Newdegate, 123 ; Mr. Bouverie, 120 ' Mr. Pope Hennessy, 109; Mr. Malins, 103; and Mr. Darby Griffiths, 101. (Laughter.) But no doubt not one of these gentle men spoke oftener than he believed the true interests of the country required. (A laugh.) Again, nine metropolitan members (exclusive of the city of London and Middlesex) made 955 speeches, and if all the rest of the House had spoken in the same proportion it would have taken five years to get through a session of Parliament. (" Hear, hear," and laughter. Mr. Mundy—" We should be there now.") No doubt of it, instead of being present on this most agreeable occasion. (Cheers.) Well, gentlemen, it has been suggested that 27 additional members should be given to these metropolitan boroughs, and, allowing them the same proportion of talk, that would add 2,700 more speeches to the 955. (Laughter.) Ardent Reformer as I am, 1 confess to you that I shudder at the idea—(laugh ter) ; —and when that day arrives, though lam prepared to go many lengths, if it is to be an in crease of mere talking power, instead• of apply ing to you for " a ticket-of-leave," I shall soli cit a final discharge. (Cheers and laughter.) In saying this, however, I will not omit to express my gratitude to the 245 patriotic members who have been " eloquent in their silence ;" who, al though they scarcely ever spoke, and thus did not lose a moment of their country's time, nevertheless devoted themselves to the real and arduous duties of Parliament by a vigilant attendance on committees and a rigid regard for the public good. (Cheers.) That is their best re ward. (Renewed cheers.) Of course, every Eng lishman values and holds dear the liberty of speech. It is not against the liberty, but the abuse of it that many complain, for mere garrulity or loquacity, without some good object to serve, can never be re garded with approbation or complacency. (Hear, hear.) Complaining as many de of this abuse of speech, it would, after all,be a sad day for England —for this great and free England—if ever its peo ple should begin to decry and disparage its Parlia ment. Not only the interest of this country,.but of the human race, is deeply concerned in maintain ing the authority and independence of Parliament. (Hear, hear.) We must treasure our free institu tions, knowing, as we do, that in so doing we set an example to the nations abroad, and stand in the vanguard of freed')m—the pioneers of liberty and the defenders of all that is sacred to hearth and home. (Loud cheers.) TINS DAY'S MARKETS. CORN EXCHANGE. Fre-h up to-day very little English wheat came to hand, hence the show of samples was limited, though in some what improved quality. Owing to an immense influx from abroad the trade was in a depressed state, and to have forced sales, is to 2s per quarter less money must have been sub mitted to. The arrivals of foreign wheat are nearly 58,000 qrs. Even the finest samples were very dull, and the quotations were nominally is to 2s per qr. lower. Floating cargoes were a very heavy sale. We have to report a dull inquiry for barley, at a further decline in the value of Is per qr. There was a moderate demand for both old and new malt at last week's currency. The suprly on offer was only oderate. Good sound oats supported previous quotations, but in fed, r parcels were 6d per qr. cheaper. No change took place in the value of beaus, but peas were very dull at the late decline. The flour trade was in a very inactive state, and prices wore rather drooping. ARRIVALS THIS WEEK. Wheat.

The Empress, accompanied by the Countess de 7;1ontobello, 7vlaclame de Sillley, and the Marquis de la Grange, left Douglas's Hotel in an open car riage about 11 o'clock yesterday (Wednesday) fore noon. and proceeded by the bridges, Nicolson-street, and so on to Daliceath. The weather was far from favourable to the enjoyment of the beautiful Lilly and sylvan scenery encountered on the way, the sky being dull and clouded and the air strong and cold. In the latter part of the journey rain began to fall, but not so heavily as to cause the carriage to be closed. A rumour of the unexpected arrival having got abroad, about a hundred of the townspeople collected in the palace grounds to welcome their distinguished and royal visitor. After being con ducted through the palace, the Empress with her t nt suite returned t o th e i r carriage. Her Majesty next Grove o theisp Palace ee c d, Uaapel, which she entered and carefully expressing herself highly de lighted with the objects that came under her notice. The illustrious party was deterred from inspecting the romantic ground s o f t h e palace b y the weather, which had now become quite boisterous, the wind furiously howling among the trees, and scattering their sere leaves far and wide. Her Majesty there fore returned to the carriage, and left the palace at a quarter past one. It was int en d e d on leaving the palace that Roslin and Hawthornden should be visited, but the weather frustrated the inten tion, so the royal carriage returned as it came, ar riving at Douglas's Hotel about half-past two. The Lord Provost called at Douglas's Hotel y es , terday afternoon about five o'clock, when his lord ship had the honour of being presented to the Empress, and met with a most cordial receptioia The Lord Provost, we believe, assured her Ma jesty that the corporation of the city, as well as the whole of his fellow-citizens, were highly pleased and delighted that Edinburgh had been selected as a place of temporary sojourn during her visit to Scotland. He added that her Majesty must have witnessed the interest which was felt and manifested in herself personally, and he hopes that this had not inconvenienced her Majesty,but would rather be regarded as indicating the grietification which was felt at the confidence manifested by the Emperor of the French in the good feeling of the people of this country. Permission was given to the Lord Provost to read the following add ress , w hi c h was d rawn up b y hi s lordship's com m itt ee , i n accor d ance w i th the resolu tion of the Council at their meeting on Tuesday : " " To Eugeni e , E mpress of th e French. May it please your M a j esty,—We, the Lord Provost, magistrates, and council of the city of Edinburgh, beg leave, for ourselves and on behalf of our fellow-citizens, to convey to your Majesty our expression of unfeigned satis faction at your arrival in this city, and our hope that your visit to Scotland may prove beneficial to your Majesty's health. As the Cons°, tof the Emperor of France, and as connected with our own country by the ties of kindred, wo humbly present our assurance of sincere and deep respect, and of interest in your Majesty's welfare. Althoulzh your Majesty, in coming among us, is unattended by the state and ceremonial of your high position, we aro desirous to take this occasion of expressing our belief that y our present visit will tend to maintain and , promote good will and peace and friendly intercourse between France and Great Britain. We hope that your Majesty, on returning to the Emperor . and to France, may carry with you the remembrance of a kind reception in a country fur which we believe you have a special affection.—Signed in name and by appointment of the Lord Provost, Magistrates, and Council, and the seal of the city affixed hereto, at Edinburgh, the 21st day of November, 1860.—F. BROWN DouuLis, Lord Provost." The Empress, in reply, was graciously pleased to say that she felt very much gratified at receiving this communication ; and regretted that ber know ledge.of the English language would not allow her to express herself so fully as she could have wished! But she had a very kind and affectionate feeling towards Scotland and its people, and she re gretted that her visit was necessarily so short. She would look back with much satisfaction to the very kind feeling'manifested towards ber is Edinburgh, and would always feel great plea sure at the recollection of her visit to the city. Her Majesty added that as she was visiting this coun try not in state, she could not receive any mere formal address (which might be inconsistent with her duty to the Queen of England), but she was very glad to be assured of the feeling entertained towards her by the citizens of Edinburgh, and was very happy to receive the address thus presented to her. Her M.,jesty assured the Lord Provost of the earnest desire on the part of the Emperor to main tain the alliance, and to cultivate a good feeling with the people of this country, and expressed a 'lope that the people of Great Britain would be fully persuaded of this. The Lord Provost having thanked the Empress for the gracious manner in which the address had been received, then took leave. The Duke of Hamilton arrived yesterday even ing at De-jay's French Hotel, Princes-street, and shortly afterwards visited Douglas's Hotel, where his grace dined with the Empress. It is rumoured that her Majesty will leave Edin burgh to-day for the north, but whether finally or not is unknown. NEWGATE AND LEADENIIALL.

WILLS AND B_EQUES2'S. The will and codicil of Mary Lady von Stierne man, who died at Norrkoping, Sweden, on the 15th of July last, in her 70th year, which are dated severally in 1851 and 1852, have been proved in Doctors' Commons by Mr. D. M. Johnston, the sole executor in England. The personal estate is sworn under £3,000, and the executors nominated for Sweden are her husband, the Hon. Frederic William von Stierneman, and John Aloselius, Esq., the late British Vice-Consul in Sweden. Her lady ship's first husband was Colonel James Inglis Hamilton, of INlurdieston, Lanarkshire, who fell gallantly at the head of the Scots Greys at Water , 100. She subsequently married Captain Edward Payne, also of the Scots Greys. A dowry of £133 was charged on the estate of Murdieston, and she also received, for the long period of 45 years, from Government, in recognition of Colonel Hamilton's meritorious services, an extra pension, of £230, partly from the 'Waterloo fund, and partly from the Royal bounty. She was probably amongst the last recipients of such proofs of national gratitude for services rendered at and antecedent to Waterloo. Captain Payne having died in 1841, she married, thirdly, in 1844, the Hon. F. W. von Stierneman, a member of the Swedish House of Lords, and to him she makes a bequest equivalent to £1,400. She likewise makes specific bequests to a n ephew and to nieces of Captain Payne. The residue her ladyship bequests to her executor, David Morice Johnstone, Eq., of Moorgate-street, London, but subject as to £l,OOO Consols, part thereof, to thel contingency of his surviving her husband; interred s ie desires that her remains shall be ultimately in England, in the tomb of her tr second ofondChailey, husband, Captain Payne, in th e churchyard , _ Commandant iII Sussex.
