CITY, Two o'CLocx. The Bank of England returns, completed to the 18th instant, shows some rather important altera tions. The public deposits, owing to the payments of the dividends, have been diminished by over half a million sterling, and there is also a small de crease in the private deposits. In the reserve of notes the diminution amounts to about half a million, while there is an addition to the active circulation of about a quarter of a million. In the other securities, owing to the re payments of loans made during the shutting of the transfer books, there is a moderate decrease. The bullion, in consequence of the active demand for export to the Continent, and the increased supply of coin issued for the dividends, has been diminished to the extent of about a quarter of a million sterling. In the other items of the balance sheet no change of importance has taken place. They will be seen in the subjoined table : Active Circulation 222,176,165 Increase 272,320 Bullion • • 16,007,843 Decrease .. 224,967 Rest 3 , 382,850 Increase 47,737 Publi D c ec D re ep as o e sits:: 3,48.5,5 0 7 634,543 Other Deposits 15 265,312 Decrease .. 123,623 Seven Day a n d other Bills • • 760,601 Increase .. 22,592 G overnment Securitie; • .. 9,721,445 Increase • • 6,871 Other SecuritiSecurities• • • 19,419,147 Decrease .. • • 197.421 Notes Une m pl oye d .. • • 7,535,200 Decrease 498,780 At the forthcoming meeting of the Electric and International Telegraph Company a dividend will be proposed at the rate of 31 per cent. for the last six months.

A WIFE'S SUFFERINGS-LENIENT PUNISHMENT.-- Richard Coleman, a porter, was charged with the follow ing aggravated assault on a female named Ann Donovan. Police constable Coleman, 153 F, said, that at four that morning he was on duty on Seven Dials, when he heard the cries of " Pollee" and " Murder," and on proceeding to the first floor of the house 16, Lamb's-court, he found the complainant in her night-dress covered with blood. She said the prisoner had been beating her about the head with the poker produced. He then took him into custody. Ann Donovan, who was stated to be the wife of the man Donovan who hung himself in "Newgate, after his trial for throwing his wife out of window at Westminster, said she had been for some time living with the prisoner, and that mo rning about four, on his getting up to go to work he swore at her and said all he earned in Covent Garden he would spend in drink. He then stack her on th e h ea d with his fist, and then seized a poker Ind struck her several blows on the arm and head with it, and kickei her about the body. She had lost a quantity of blood, and all the injuries about her head, which were so bad that she could scarp ely bear her bonnet to touch it, were done with the poker. He hal often before ill-used her, and on one occa sion she hid herself, so as not to be compelled to appear against him. She had led a dreadful life, and several good homes had been broken up by the prisoner, whose conduct was very•bad.

Fort-a-bras, Pangu, Nuncio, Zouave, Gibraltar, Gus tave, Twilight, Rising Sun, May Morning, Marseillaise, Nemesis, Virolay, Chelmsford, Margery filly, Fortuna This great aquatic tournament commenced yesterday at Putney, but the interest excited was very small, no doubt owing to the circumstance that the races were confined to trial heats, the deciding one, with a single exception, having to be rowed this day. At two o'clock the sports commenced with the CHAMPION FOUR-OARED RACE, OPEN TO ALL THE WORLD. First prize £lOO ; second, £2O ; and third, £lO ; the first and second boat in the first heat, and the first boat in the second to row for the grand heat. FIRST HEAT. The Lord Kilmorey Crew, Newcastle (Blue) 1 John H. Clasper, E. Winship, R o b er t Ch am b ers (Champion of the Thames and Tyne), Henry Clasper, and Robert Clasper, coxswain.

The sports recommenced this day at Putney, and owing to the number of important races to be decided, the attend ance was much more than yesterday. THE SCULLERS' RACE, OPEN TO ALL THE! WORLD. FOURTH HEAT. G. Hammerton, Teddington (Green and White) 1 F. Kelly, Fulham (Pink) 2 The grand heat for this race was to be rowed shortly be fore seven.

The great feature of the day was the final heat for this great honour and prize, and for some time previous to the si art the excitement was immense. As the Thames crew showed themselves, they were loudly cheered by the whole of the assemblage, and the same honour was paid to the other competitors, but in a subdued manner. The Thames crew were awarded the Middlesex side (the position given Clasper's crew yesterday), the Newcastle crew the centre, and the Manchester and Tyne the Surrey side of the river. The Newcastle crew seemed rather displeased with the position assigned to them, but the arrangements were strictly adhered to, and the preparatory gun was fired without discussion. In a few minutes after Mr. Casamajor was rowed to the starting-point, and without the slightest delay gave the order "Start," and instantly the oars of the men dashed into the water. In the first two or three strokes the Manchester and Tyne crew seemed to have a slight lead, but Clasper's crew seemed determined to wrest the temporary honour from them. After a few very desperate pulls, Clasper's crew brought their boat so near that of the Manchester men that a foul occurred, but not of a very serious character. Trif ling, however, as the incident was it was seized by the Putney crew, and away they went with a clear lead of about two boat's length in advance. At starting the Putney crew were the favourites, and having secured the lead, made them still greater. After a most exciting race the winning point (Hammer smith-bridge) was reached in the following order : The Thames Crew (Putney) (White) 1 Thomas Pocock, Joseph Wise, Thomas White, Henry Kelly (stroke). W. Peters (coxswain). A. P. Lonsdale's crew (Manchester and Tyne).. (Yellow) 2 J. G. Taylor, T. Matfin, H. Ault, M. Taylor (stroke), T. Harrison (coxswain). Lord Kilmorey's Crew (Newcastle) .. (Blue) 3 J. IL Clasper, Edwin Winship, R. Chambers, Henry Clasper (stroke), Robert Clasper (coxswain). According to the rules of the Thames Subscription Club, fouling on the part of any person or persons engaged in a race disqualifies them for any prize whatever, but the committee being of opir ion that the foul was unintentional, ordered them a small sum from .the funds of the so ciety, but not the sum to which the third boat would have been entitled.

Sheppard, Chelsea ' (Yellow) 0 The final heat was to be rowed at seven o'clock. SCULLERS' RACE, OPEN TO THE WORLD. FIILST HEAT. E. Bell, Richmond J. Chandler, Hammersmith H. Corby, Gravesend This was a very fine heat, and won in very masterly style. They got away together, when Chandler took a slight lead, Bell and Corby being scull and scull. Ere their arrival at the point Bell had rowed so vigorously that he went into Chandler's stern, but immediately stopped his boat and backed till the other got well away, and then he resumed the race, rowing by Chandler off the Crab Tree, and win ning by two lengths. Second Heat. T. Pocock, Lambeth 1 G. Wade, Ratcliff. 0 The winner took the lead, and kept it with ease. Pair-oared Race. Open to the world. First prize, £25 ; second, £lO ; third, £5 ; fourth, £3. First Heat. G. Hammerton and G. Francis, Teddington J. G. Taylor and M. Taylor, Newcastle As two boats out of this heat were qualified to row in the grand heat this could not be considered in the light of arace, as the men were, of course, not disposed to distress them selves without occasion. The absence of the whole of the other pairs, three in number, U. Clasper and J. H. Clasper, S. Peters and T. Royal, and 11. Kelly and T. White, caused some surprise ; but it was conjectured they were husbanding their strength for the great engagement in the Four-oared Champion Race they have to-day. Second Heat. R. Chambers and E. Winship, Newcastle.... John Mackinney and Thomas Makinney, Richmond T. Pocock, Lambeth, and J. Wise, Kew 0 Bain and Martin had also 'seen entered in this heat, but did not come to the starting post. The race was admi rably started, immediately after which Chambers and part ner took a slight head, followed by the Mackinneys, Pocock and Wise being close up. Chambers and partner were pressed hard by the Mackinneys for some distance, and the third pair gradually fell off till the two leading boats had it all their own way. The grand heat excites much speculation. Hammerton and Francis appear to be taken for preference in the race of to .day. WATERMEN'S SCITLLERS' RACE. Third Heat. G. Everson, Greenwich.-- 1 G. Drewit, Chelsea W. Hemmings, Richmond Almost directly after the start Everson began to draw ahead, and Hemmings pulling too closely on Drewit they fouled, but Hemmings broke away well and made a deter mined effort to overhaul Everson, but without effect, the latter keeping the lead to the finish, winning by nearly a length.

The committee appointed a short time since to consider various plans for embanking the river Thames, and the best mode of obtaining the money to carry out such a plan, has concluded its labours of taking evidence, and will, probably, shortly present its report. A large nuniber of witnesses have been examined, and the walls of the committee-room have been almost covered with plans and designs submitted by various individuals. The question of embanking the Thames above London-bridge is one that has revived more or less of public consideration ever since the great fire in 1666. Sir Christopher Wren first, and afterwards Sir John Evelyn, prepared plans for such a work, and upon one occa sion it was so far adopted by the Government that they ac tually provided the " ways and means" for it in the coal tax, which the city of London was authorised to impose. Some thirty years ago, Sir Frederick (then Colonel) Trench agitated the question in public meeting, by pamphlets, by engravings, and by every means in his power. The idea was a bold one, the plans comprehensive, and the gallant colonel urged its adoption with so much pertinacity as to bring down upon him no small amount of ridicule from those who could not or weuld not see the value of his pro posal. Sir Frederick brought the subject under the notice of the House of Commons; and it is curious to find the late Sir Robert Peel, then in office, refusing, on behalf of the Government, to give his sanction to the pan, on the ground that an embankment of the Thames would spoil the pro spect of the small streets leading out of the Strand. Sir A. Peel was no doubt a great statesman, but in matters of public improvement he was certainly somewhat crotchety, and his notions respecting the National Gallery and Tra falgar-square, "the finest site in Europe," were not on a par with his sagacity in political or commercial questions. In 1843 the Metropolitan Commissioners were appointed, and once more this question of embankment was consi dered, and with everyl prospect of success, for the commis • sioners reported in favour of carrying cut the work. That commission came to the conclusion that the plan then submitted by Mr. Page, C.E., and referred by them to Messrs. Rendell and Cubitt, ought to be adopted. They state that. " the portion which could be most con veniently carried out is that which lies between Westmin ster and Blacitfriars bridges, whereby the great objects of public recreation and health would be promoted, and con siderable relief be given to the existing insufficient thoroughfares between the eastern and western districts of the metropolis ; that the plan proposed would effect this without detriment to the trade conducted on the Mid dlesex shore," and they further resolved that " they would proceed to ascertain the expense and see in what manner the funds could be provided so as to press with the least possible weight an inconvenience upon the in habitants of the metropolis and its environs." In this state the question now stands ; for two centuries it has been considered a work cf great value and importance to the metropolis, but a great and wealthy coun try has practically confessed its inability to provide some half a million of money to construct the embankment of the river that runs through its metropolis. So late as 1855 there was also a committee of the Reuse of Commons to inquire into the subject of metropolitan communica tions. They sat for nearly four months, examined forty five witnesses, and of course incubated a Blue-book with abundant illustrations of plans and drawings. This com • mittee endorsed to a certain extent the dcision of the commissioners, and once more there appeared a prospect of giving to London a new route and a direct communication by means of a road on the river from cast to west, and some relief to the overcrowded thoroughfares of the metropolis. Had London possessed a municipal government worthy of the name, such as that which exists at Paris, a committee of the House of Commons would not now be sitting to con sider its report upon the embankment of the Thames at London. The work presents no extraordinary difficulty, requires no enormous outlay, and might be made self-sustaining. If one tithe of the time and attention bestowed in Parlia ment upon subjects of useless party contest, and given to futile attempts at legislation upon the hobbi es of inividual members, were directed to this really practical question, all apparent difficulties would soon be got over. The plan ap proved by the commissioners of 1813, sanctioned by the committee of 1855, which has been examined by the present committee, and which formed the basis of some score of designs, was, as we have already intimated, prepared by Mr. Page. The proposal was to commence a solid em bankment at a point a little above Queenhithe on the Mid dlesex side, and to terminate at Milbank, opposite Lam beth Palace; and on the Surrey side the work would commence opposite Queenhithe Dock, and terminate at a point between Lambeth Palace and Vauxhall-bridge. Be tween Westminster-bridge and half-way from Lambeth Palace to Vauxhall upon the Surrey side, and from Queen hithe Dock, upon each side of the river, up to Black friars, it was to be a promenade for foot passengers only. From Blackfriars-bridge to "Whitehall -place, on the Middlesex side, there was to be a carriage-way 50 feet in width, combined with a footpath for pedes trians • and between Blackfriars and Westminster bridges, on the Surrey side, the roadway would also be adapted for vehicles and foot passengers. The embankment at first proposed was four feet above Trinity datum high water, but, at the suggestion of the late Sir Robt. Harry Inglis, it was raised in parts to 12 feet above high water. At West minster-bridge the embankment would be on a level, and 12 feet high, but in front of Temple-gardens it would fall to four feet above high water, so as not to in' erfere with the view of the river from these gardens • would rise to ten feet between Temple-gardens and Black friars-bridge. The principle upon which the embankment was designed was that of encroaching as little as possible upon the river, and of affording the greatest amount of pub lic accommodation on each side. The causeway was to be detached from the wharves on each side of the river, leav in as much water as possible between the embankment and the wharves for the accommodation of barges. As designed, this " roadway in the river" would give a considerable ex tent of acreage of dock on each side of the river. The space between Richmond-terrace and the grounds of the Board of Control and the embankment would be not less than 130 feet, which might be available for a garden, and in front of Somerset House there would also be a large area, which could be made available for advancing some portion of the present buildings into the river. Along the embankment would be placed tidal gates, at various distances, to admit the entrance of barges into the wharf docks. If the em bankment were carried to the height of twelve feet, it would admit of the passage of barges through these open ings without the necessity of swing bridges, the only ex ception being what were called straw barges, nearly the whole of which now go to Hungerford-market ; but as it was shown that the market will shortly become a railway station, and that the barges would cease to go there, this difficulty was removed. The work could be made self-sustaining by various plans which were suggested, among others the lay • ing down of an omnibus tramway along the embankment, and letting it out at an annual rental to persons who might be disposed to run omnibuses upon it in a manner similar to that of Paris and Versailles, or which las just been sanctioned at Birkenhead, and which is so ably and ener getically advocated by Mr. G. F. Train. Railway com panies, too, might also be disposed to run trains upon the line ; or a rental might be received for wharfage, to be constructed upon the outside of the causeway. One very , important point which the committee has been appointed to consider is, how far it may be practicable to make suc h a work useful in the carrying out of the system ofconstruct the drainage. The Board of Works propose to main Ludgate-hill, sewer along the Strand, Fleet-street, and quired to and it is anticipated that two 3 com plete this section of the obstructionwork.:eTaihsehwi.cllbere to business h such a work would and to these great thoroughfares cause, has led to the opinion thatwit' would be desirable to combine this portion of the i d i ra" ame with an embankment, given n to show that it will not and ample evidence has only be perfectly practicableb. to do so, but that it will be very much more economical, and avoid that risk to house e property which will g attend the deep cutting or tunnelin s required for the s ewer metropolis It through this part of the t is too much, perhaps, to hope that the House oftorn-. mons will ta ke any action on the report of th e committee during t h e present i session; but there are many su bj ec t s w hi c h will occupy its attention, which are of a far less practical and important character than this long-pending question of the Thames embankment, BEYBOUT. The following letter, received yesterday morning from Beyrout, gives some insight into the causes which, have produced the present lamentable state of matters in the Lebanon. The writer has been settled for the lost 20 years in the country, and is consequently well acquainted with the various tribes which inhabit the mountain : Shemtain, Jnne 30, 1860. You will, no doubt, before this can reach you, have seen accounts of the feud which has been rag ing in this quarter between Druse and Christian, and you will doubtless have seen a great many exaggerations and misrepresentations. I should like to give you a true statement of what has passes, but I almost flinch from telling the truth. The so-called Christians are so palpably in the wrong that any one calling himself Christian, and having any respect for the name, must feel humiliated in making statements that, if they do not justify, must at all events palliate the conduct of the Druses. You will remember that last year there was a Druse and Christian quarrel at a village called Beyt Mary. That quarrel was settled by aeompact between the Christian Emir and the Druse chiefs to maintain peace,'the Druses paying 30,000 piastres as indemnity for Christian property destroyed. However, as the Christians found, to their surprise, that they had killed more Druses than were slain of themselves, it appears that it either entered or was put into their heads that matters were now altered, and, as the Christians were, by far the most numerous, they could now overpower the Druses. Be that as it may, it is now positive that a society was formed, of which it is said that the Roman Catholic Bishop, Tobia, and the Emir Kais Shehab were presidents, fbr the very Christian purpose of exterminating the Druses of Lebanon. An executive committee was organised, composed of Naum Kicano ; Assad, son of Isaac Tabet ; Michael Fargialla, native merchants and bankers of Beyrout ; and it is said that Ayoub Trabilsy, a mer chant of Deir-el•Kamar, was attached to them. The duty of this committee was to furnish arms, ammu nition, and money to the Christian population, which they did chiefly through the priests of the villages, gratis, on the sole condition of fighting the Druses •, otherwise they were to be charged with the value of the arms, &c. It is asserted that upwards of 14,000 muskets and a proportionate quantity of ammunition were in this way delivered to the pea santry. I will not vouch for my correctness in the names of the individuals of the committee, but they are thole given by public report, and what seems to confirm the report is that, with the exception of one (M. Fargialla), they fled as soon as it was seen that the Druses could not be conquered so easily. Kicano and Nacash ware bankers in Beyrout—a sort of joint-stock—and Kicano fled first, and now his partner in the _management, Nacash, has fled, taking the books and assets of the bank, and leaving shareholders and creditors to whistle. But to return to my account. As soon as the Christian leaders thought things ready, they began to assemble their men, and it was evident that mischief to the Druses was intended. The Druse chiefs began to look about them, but being really averse to -a fight, being altogether unprepared, they did everything in their power to prevent it, or at least to delay it. They. wrote to the Christian Emir, pointing out the evil that would ensue to both parties by the loss of the silk harvest (the most important of the country), and asserting their willingness to settle all differences amicably; but the Christians would listen to nothing; they were determined ; and the only step taken by the Turkish authorities to prevent bloodshed and disorder was to march a handful of men from Beyrout to the foot of the mountains near the new Damascus-road, where they encamped. _ It appears that it was arranged by the Christians that the first Druse places to be attacked were Shweyfat and Aitat. The first place is the resi dence of the Druse Kaimaikan, and the other is the residence of one branch of the Tel hooks, whose chief is Sheikh Hasein Talhook, the most intelligent and knowing, perhaps, of all the Druses. On their way to the above-named places, the Christians had to march past the Turkish camp pre viously alluded to, and they positively did so within 50 paces of the regular troops, without a single effort. being made to arrest them ! The Christians pushed en to Hadat and Babda, where they were to be joined by the Emir Kills Sheilah and some others. In the meantime the Druses, who are naturally bold and high-spirited, and accustomed to look on the Christians as no match for them in fight, did not wait to be attacked, but made a simultaneous rush from Aleih, Aitat, and Ainanib, down the Waady, and on towards Hadat and Babda. '['he Christians made but a poor show of fight : the Druses carried all before them, and destroyed by fire Hadat and Babda. Thus the war began, and afterwards the whole Mittu was one continued scene of battle and burning, until the Druses were victorious at all points, with the exception of Zahleh and Dceir-el-Katnar. In the meantime the wild, lawless Deuses of the Haouran were rushing to the assistance of their brethren on the Lebanon, and, having no doubt been informed of the avowed purpose of the Christians to exterminate the Druses, these Haouranese committed the most deplorable ex cesses on the first of the Christian populations they met—viz., at Hasbeyah and Rasheyah. At Has beyah, I believe, at first they cut down Druse and Christian indiscriminately, and, although there were Turkish soldiers there also, they made no effort to stop the havoc. From these places the Haouranese continued their march towards the plain of Bekaah, sweeping as it were all the places in their route inha - iited by Christians, until they came opposite to Kub Elias, when a party of them encamped, while the rest continued their march further east, and en camped opposite Zahleh, on the south side of the plain. The Zahleh people had taken possession of Kub Elias, but after a skirmish or two with the Druses under the Arnads they retired to Zahleh, which they fortified by erecting breastworks, and sallied out occasionally to annoy the Druses. .In Zahleh were assembled nearly all the best fighting-men of the Christians, and they, no doubt, thought them , selves very secure, for they committed the most revolting atrocities on two Druse women (mother and daughter), who had been left in charge of a Christian by a Druse, who was his partner in agri culture. To the honour of the Christian be it said that he, poor fellow, did all in his power to keep his co-religionist from their detestable conduct, offering his all as a bribe, and supplicating them on his knees but all to no purpose. The attack on Zahleh was made by the Haoura nese from the plain, supported by the Lebanon Drases under the Arnads, and they were kept at bay for a good while by the Zahleh men, when a few hundred (about 300) Druses from the Ghurb made a rush from the heights above, got through the breastworks or over them, and entered the town. The retiring Haouranese, being reproached bitterly by their chief (Ismail Attrash), and seeing the red flag of the Druses in the town, rushed back furiously, and carried all before them ; and then ensued some hand-to-hand work, but in less than two hours Zahleh was emptied of its live male population, and it is said that the Emir of the Harfush family (Melawali) fell in with the fugi tives and cut wp some of them. And the feud now exists in the Kissrowan and Jebail between Chris tian and Metawali, who aro burning each other's houses. Nothing now opposed the Druses save Deir-el- Kamar, in which place there were about 600 Turk ish soldiers. The Druses demanded of the Christians to deliver up their arms, but the Turkish authorities interposed, and told the Christians that if they only trusted in the Sultan, and delivered up their arms to the Pasha, or Mitziilin, no harm would befall them. The Christians trusted the Turks, and were basely betrayed. I believe it will yet be found out that the 'lurkish soldiers slew more in cold blood than the Druses did in their raga. There never was such destestable conduct as the Turks were guilty of at Deir-el-Kamar, and I be lieve that Kurschid Pasha is guilty of being the deliberate destroyer of the Christians slain at Deir el-Kamar and other places also. He is an arch fanatic. ' He was sent expressly by his Govern ment to oppose European influence on the popula tion here, and has been u ndeviatingly, zealous and consistent in hatred of Frank or Christian ever since he came to 13eyrout, and it is no fault of his and almo , t a miracle that the fanatics of Damascus and Aleppo have not riscn on the non-Moslem popu , when indig nlaattiioonn, i a s n i d .o cut u sed t , h ‘ e l m i lloiffn. e Port e all likelihood its s ch a createurerealubreut tae f its end s, e t ri e acts of employ u t h e y toi, i n their wickedn ess est, pretend ignorance. is England has before this stood in. the.
