MONEY MARKET AND CITY NEWS. CITY, Two o'CLocK. There is a steady demand for money in the general market to-day, at previous rates, and the inquiries at the Bank of England are rather limited. The foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon ex hibited a slight decline in the ratcs on Vienna and Trieste. At the Bank of England yesterday there were no bullion operations of importance. In the Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday the transactions were exceedingly limited, and prices were depressed. The sales only amounted to 3,000 bales. The Railway Share I%tarket was rather active, and quotations exhibited a decided improve ment. The committee of the Stock Exchange have at length published' their report upon the-Pullinger frauds, and great care seems to have been taken in effecting a thorough investigation into his connec tion with that establishment. The evidence they have been enabled to collect shows that the moneys actually paid by him to brokers, including Messrs. Bell and Ball, on account of speculative transac tions from January, 1855—when the defalcations first commenced—to April of the present year, amounted to £53,285. Of the immense balance, exceeding £200,000, the committee can only state that Pullinger passed credits amounting to £57,000 to an "outsider," named Nathan, who lately died at Paris in affluent circumstances, and that the delinquent was also largely engaged in racing transactions. It follows, therefore, that the direc tors of the Union Bank of London were not justi fied in announcing to the public in their report to the shareholders that the £263,000 embezzled had been lost on the Stock Exchange, At the meeting of the Peninsula and Oriental Steam Company, held this day, the usual dividend of 31 per cent. was declared. A moderate amount of business has been trans acted to-day in the market for Public Securities, and the liquidation of the account has caused some activity. At first the quotations appeared heavy, but the telegrams from the Paris Bourse report an advance in the Rentes, and the effect upon the Funds has been rather favourable. Consols for money have been 944 and 95 ; for the July account they are 951 1. The New Three par Cents. have receded to 93/ I; the Reduced to 93} t. The New 31 per Cents. are marked 100, and the 24 per Cents. are fiat at 79. India Stock is firm at 2221 and 2241; ditto New Loan is 1061 ; and Exchequer Bills lls. prem. In the Foreign Stock Market business continues moderately active, and prices are steady. Turkish 6 per Cents. are 751 to 76 ; ditto New, 581 to 59 ; Mexican remain at 21+ -a; Sardinian at 821; and Brazilian Scrip at / dis. ; Russian 3 per Cents. are firmer at 64i ; and Dutch 21 per Cents. at 66 ; Portuguese have receded to 441 ; and Venezuelan are marked 25. The Ocean Marine Insurance Shares are 2 1 prem.; the Thames and Mersey ditto, 13- / prem. ; and the Universal ditto, 9 t- prem.; the Imperial Thessalian Mining Shares are a ,1 prem. lin the Railway Share Market the transactions have been extremely moderate, and in some in stances prices have slightly given way. Caledo nians, Great Northern, _Midland, North British, and North-Eastern Berwicks have receded ss. ; and Brighton and Sonth-Easterns, 10s. A rather firmer tone, however, is now exhibited. The Foreign and Colonial Market remains very inactive, and prices are steady. East Indian, Great Indian Peninsula, and Great Western of Canada realise yesterday's quotations. Joint Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares have been at almost nominal quotations. London Joint stock have declined ss. ; Union of London, ss. ; Crystal Palace realise 32f ; Electric Telegraph, 107 ; Canada Land, 121 to 122 ; and Peninsula and Oriental Steam, 76.

VICE-CHANCELLOR STUARTS COURT. NOTTIDGE V. PRINCE.-THE AGAPEMONE. Mr. Bacon, on the part of the defendant Prince, resumed his address this morning. He said the judgment of Lord Justice Bruce such as in some way to prejudge'the present case. Miss Nottidge, he contended, according even to the witnesses brought forward by the plaintiff, was a person of sound mind, with respect to the disposition of property, although she appeared to labour under certain delusions with respect to the divinity of Mr. Prince. Mr. Rouse, the attorney, who had resided seven years in the Agapemone with his wife and child and conducted the whole of the correspondence relative to the transfer of Miss Not tidge's property to Prince, gave it as his opinion that the lady was perfectly sane with regard to money affairs; and as to the exaggerated notions prevalent as to the practices within the Agapemone, he stated that, during the time he was a resident, he had nothing to say with regard to the daily practices therein. He, however, did not seem to approve of the doctrines which it was but fair to say he now considered to be mischievous. During the whole of the time that Mr. Rouse was engaged in the transfer, he had frequent opportunities of ascertaining whether there was any undue influence on the part of the defendant, but none such had teen proved on the other side. On the contrary, it appeared that Miss Nottidge had made the gift of the money to Prince, as a free gift, and in accordance with the rules of the Agape 'none. The money was not given by Miss Nottidge on her first taking up her abode at the Agapemone, but after she had left on the first occasion, and quitted the asylum she had been placed in, she again returned, and then in the presence of Thomas she made the money over to Prince without his knowledge, as he should show that he did not know of the transfer of the property until 15 days after it had been made. It was no uncommon thing for money to to made over to the defendant, because Rouse himself when he entered the Agapemone paid £1,500 to the fund of the body. Mr. Starkey had paid £B,OOO, and several others bad made similar donations. The learned gentleman proceeded to read a number of affida.rits, amongst which was one of Miss Nottidge to the effect that she had transferred the money to Prince without his knowledge. The case will not be concluded before to-morrow at the earliest. THE REV. eTAIIIES BONTVELL'S C SE. COURT OF ARCHES THIS DAY. (Before Dr. Lushington, Dean of Arches.) THE OFFICE OF THE JUDGE PROMOTED BY THE BISHOP OP LONDON V. THE REV. JAMES BONWELL, INCUMBENT OP ST. STEPHEN'S, STEPNEY. The Rev. James Bonwell, perpetual curate (orrector, the point being undetermined), of St. Philip's Church, Step ney, appeared personally in court this morning, for the pur pose either of opposing or admitting certain articles filed against him by the bishop of the diocese, arising out of grave charges of immorality of which he is alleged to have been guilty. Owing to the rules of the Arches Court, Mr. Best, of the Oxford circuit, who has been Mr. Bonwell's counsel throughout, could not appear professionally being a member of the common law bar, and the rev. gentleman therefore determined upon conducting Lis own case. Sir J. Harding, the Queen's Advocate, appeared for the Bishop of London, and Mr. J. B. Lee, his lordship'e secre tary, was in attendance to watch the case. The learned advocate briefly stated the nature of the al- tides. The first article set out the general law; the second set forth the institution and license of Mr. Bonwell to the incumbency of St. Philip's. The remaining articles set forth, that, on or about the month of September, 1858, Mr. Bonwell made the acquaintance of Elizabeth Yorath at Margate, and that he represented himself to her and her friends as an unmarried man (he being married at the time) ; that subsequently, in London, he harbour d her in St. Philip's school-room, where she gave birth to a male child, which afterwards died and was buried. Thcy then pro ceeded to set forth the various acts of intimacy between Mr. Bonwell and Miss Yorath in London and various parts of the country. They also set forth the facts connected with the birth of the child, and traced Mr. Bonwell's connexion with the birth, such as fetching the doctor, hiring the nurse, &c., the priviLte baptism of the child 'by Mr. Bon well, and his instructions to the und, rtaker to bury it. The last article alleged that Mr. Bonwell was a priest - of the United Church of England and Ireland, and therefore amenable to its laws. The Rev. Defendant said that this was a legal question of the admissibility of the articles, and he could not, there fore, enter inte the merits of the case. The bishop could have proceeded in two ways. He could as soon as the scandal came to his ears have sent the case to that court, or he could have issued a commission. His lordship elected to take the latter course, but he allowed the case to stand over for five months before he took any proceedings whatever. He ar gued at some length that the Court could take no legal cog nisance of immoralities committed without the boundaries of the diocese of London, the commissioners having been ap pointed to inquire merely into hie conduct in the diocese of London. He objected to the 4th; sth, Gth, and 7th ar ticles, on the ground that they charged offences not com mitted within the jurisdiction of the Bishop, under whose authority the commission was issued, and he objected to other articles because they were not founded upon any portion of the commissioners' report. Then the dates were set out with much vagueness, and he should ask the Court to direct that more specific dates should be given, as in teeny cases he believed he should be able to prove an alibi. He ybjected to the 18th and 20th articles (that of harbour ing Miss Yorath), which he contended constituted no eccle siastical offence; and to the 22d article, because it did not set out with sufficient explicitness where the child, Philip Yorath was baptised, are where he gave instructions to the undertaker for its interment. Sir John Harding, in reply, said the report of the commissioners bore directly upon the articles which he now asked the Court to admit. lie considered that Mr. Bon. well was in error in contending that the articles could not embrace any acts of immoralily in other dioceses, because it was necessary to insert introduction, acquaintance, arrange.. meats, adsignations, &c., in order to lead up to the main charges alleged. It has, morever, the intention of the articles to prove adultery in the diocese of London, and one of the articles was specifically pointed that way. There was no intention to visit Mr. Bonwell with ecclesi astical penalties on account of his acquaintance with Miss Yorath, or for having represented himself to her and her friends as an unmarried man, although if it were true he had co omitted a most outrageous moral offence. Mr. Bon well said—lf I had said so, I should be willing not only to be deprived of my benefice but my orders. There was no truth in the allegation. Sir J. Harding submitted that the dates were sufficiently set forth in the articles, but if the Court thought that the article must be struck out on account of want of proper specification of dates, he must submit to the decision. With regard to the private baptism of the child, it was not right to make it an ezclesiastical offence in this case. Dr. 'l'restram followed on the same side, contending that this was not an appeal from the commissioners, but ft was an entirely new proceeding, and that, therefore, the pro moters of the suit were entitled to embody in the articles facts and circumstances last brought before the commis sioners. With regard to dates, Mr. Bonwell could easily supply them if they were material—for instance, as to the time Mrs. Bonwell was at Margate. Mr. Bonwell—She never was there, and it is upon that ground I want dates. Dr. Lushington said he was sorry he had not seen the report of the commissioners, and without he should not like to express any opinion. He would, therefore, defer judgment. POLICE INTELLIGENCE--( THIS DAY.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. ROBBERY By A SERVANT. —A BAD CAM—Mary Ann Keller, a rather good-looking young woman, was charged before Mr. Seeker with stealing £7 14s. in money, and a dress of the value of £1 10s., the property of Helen Alexan der, assistant to Mr. Glen, baker, of Regent -street ; and also with stealing a shawl, the property of Elizabeth Nor ton, also an assistant in the same employ. Helen Alexander said the prisoner entered Mr. Glen's service as a servant on the 30th of April, and on the even ing of the Bth of May asked to go out for an hour, which was permitted, but she never returned. On going to her box shortly after the prisoner had loft the house, she missed £7 14s. in gold axd silver, and also a dress of the value of 308., which she had seen safe two days before. Elizabeth Norton said she missed from her box the same evening a shawl and a gold and enamelled brooch, both of which were safe the previous evening. Gordon, 336 A, said he apprehend e d t h e prisoner in Regent-street the previous evening, and on charging her with the robbery, she said she had been induced to do it by a girl named Thompson, and that she had taken her to a house in the Waterloo-road, and that th ey went to bed together, but that in the night the girl Thompson got up and went off with the money and property. F rom the de scription the prisoner had given him of Thompson, he be lieved her to be one of the worst thieves in London. The prisoner, who had no questions to ask, was then re manded. BRUTAL SPORT.—On the complaint of the Scottish Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, two carters—one residing at Fountainbridge and the other in High-street—were on Saturday, the 2d inst., charged before Bailie Forrester, in the Burgh Court, with cruelly ill-treating and torturing two horses ender their charge on the afternoon of Wednesday, the 16th ult., under the bridge on the road leading from King's Stables to St. Cuthbert's Church, by tying together, back to back, the two carts to which the horses were yoked, and lashing the animals with whips, to cause them to pull against each other, until one of the horses was overpowered and dragged a considerable distance. The carters pled guilty, and were each fined in 10s. and costs, with the alternative of 20 days' imprison ment.—Caledonian Mercury. ( ASCOT ILIC_E,F.--(This Day.)

Mr. CARD WELL observed that there was no chance of the bill being passed this session. ECCLESIASTICAL COMMISSION, &c., BILL. On the order for the second reading of this bill, Mr. SELWYN moved that the bill be read a second time this day six months. He considered that a measure of this kind should, on the motion for its second reading, be introduced with some preliminary remarks. He regarded the bill as a measure which had for its object the vesting of the whole landed property of the Church in the hands of the Ecclesiastical Commission, and in his opinion there were three great objections to it, namely that it was a mea sure which comprised centralisation, compensation, and confiscation. The centralising element of the bill would have the effect of severing to a considerable extent, in some cases, the important ties that at present existed between the Church and landlord and tenant. Having stated the opinions expressed by the Committee of the House of Lords, of which Lords Brougham and St. Leonardo, and the Duke of Buccleuch, and other competent authorities, were mem bers, on this subject, in support of his views, he- adverted to the last report of the Ecclesiastical Commission in No vember, 1859. That report stated, that the property en trusted to its care already was situated in different counties, which rendered its collection very difficult; and that the annual income amounted to no less than £173,560. It was now proposed to vest the cathedral property, as well as the property belonging to the deans and canons, in the same commission. In his objection to the functions exercised by the Commission he wished it to be under.,too', that he did not object to the constitution of that body, as'he believed it was composed of gentlemen the best qualified to discharge the duties entrusted to them ; but practically they merely carried out the instructions of a subordinate official body. He referred to the mode in which the accounts were au dited, which he described as most imperfect, and illustra tive of the defective principles on which the bill was founded. There was another defect arising out of the sys tem of centralisation, one of the main elements of the bill, namely, the expense incurred in collection and manage ment, which in one year amounted to £13,583 15s. 10d. With regard to the application of the money collected, it appeared that the magnificent sum of £lO4 was ap plied to schools; to new schools necessitous livings £52,000, to new districts £36,ooo—making a total in round numbers of £89,000 appropriated to meet the spiritual destitution that prevailed in the country, and that out of an income of £173,000, being about double the amount ex pended in the expenses of mere management. With respect to his second objection, that of compensation, the other principle of the bill. At present the whole management of the cathedral estates was in the hands of chapter clerks, whose duties were proposed to be transferred to other officials. These chapter clerks would have to be cowensated for the loss of their office, and their successors would have to learn their duties.. The hon. and learned member then proceeded to argue that the bill would lead to extensive litigation, the expenses of which would have to be defrayed out of the income that would b voted in the hands of the Commission. With reference to the third objection, confiscation, he would ask whether, looking at the question practically, it could be expected to work satisfactorily or equitably ? How was any one to know the time when confiscation sib ould take place, and on its operation it would lead to litigation that would be unavoidable and expensive. He should be happy to see alterations that would remove any defects in the Church, but he strongly deprecated any attempt to deprive it of the property to which it was as well entitled as any lay corpo ration. The Emperor of the French had set the country an example in dealing with Church property, but his con duct had been described as spoliation and confiscation, terms which applied with equal propriety to the attempt in this bill to infringe the vested rights of the State Church in this country. What he would suggest was that the Crown should exercise its right in remodelling the estates, and that the commission should have only that fair propor tion of the property to which they were justly entitled. If they desired to create a new body let them forni a board of a diocesan character and possessed of local knowledge. To a proposition of the kind the members of the chapter were ready to acceh, and nothing of a fairer character could be submitted for the adoption of the house. Mr. Alderman COPELAND seconded the amendment, and went into figures to show that the commission incurred an extravagant expenditure, and before conferring on them additional powers, Lie thought it right that there should be some inquiry into the mode in which they had managed their business. He dwelt particularly on the item in the account of the commission of £8,675 annually for clerks, which, as a man acquainted with commerce, he was satis fied was a sum that should not be appropriated to such a purpose, considering the duties these clerks were called on to discharge. Mr. FRE ELAND said this bill was only a step in a a certain direction, and not a settlement of the question. He considered the bill might have been divided into two bills, the one that would deal with capitular estates and the other with lessee's claims. It was opposed to the principles of centralisation, but he was of opinion that, in the present case, what he would call intermediate cen tralisation would operate beneficially. (LEFT SPEAKING.)

The " glories" of A scot were certainly much diminished by the inclement weather. The alternations of rain and sunshine were frequent, but the plurial visitation certainly damped the ardour of the visitors. Although the attend ance was perhaps an average one, yet the spectators seemed to regard the sport with almost indifference ; still the racing was perhaps more abundant and more interesting than has been known at Ascot for years. The arrangementm for Thursday in every compartment are complete, and only fine weather is required to render the present gathering the most successful ever held on the far-famed heath. The sport to-day was of an unusually interesting description, but speculation on the Stakes and any race to come was very dull. ASCOT RACES, TUESDAY.

On rounding the Top turn, Magnum took his place at Rupee's quarters; the othar two running side by side about six lengths off. These positions were held until they had entered the Swinley course, when Rupee separated herself from Magnum, but soon afterwards bolted, and left Avalanche with the lead; Magnum and Horror lying close up; the three ran home together, Horror getting the best of it at the distance, and winning cleverly by half a length; the second beating the third by a head.

After some little delay, occasioned principally by the breaking away of Speculation, Zaretan, and one or two others, the flag was dropped. They ramin a line, General Hesse having a slight lead, with Prelude, Predictor, Baron Munchausen, and Speculation lying next in attendance. The result was never in doubt, the General winning by a length, half a length between the second and third, and a head between the third and fourth. Prelude and Sir Ed ward were next.

Moura vieff, however, ran home a clever winner by a head ; a length between the second and third. Flitch was fourth, about six lengths off.

TEE DEBATE ON THE .REFO.R3I BILL. Lord John Russell introduced into the debate on the Reform Bill' two topics which have seldom heretofore formed the staple of discussion in the House of Commons. He invited the Legislature te consider the merits of an article in the Quarterly, written, as he said, 13y "some obscu re i n di v id ual, " whose bscurity, however, did not shelter hini from censure, and he threw_ out a still more delicate question for a leading member of the Government to handle,--Who is at present the leader of the Opposition? Lord John seemed to be in as• much difficulty as an old-established Government in con tact with a country undergoing the fever of a revo lution, which knows not to whom to give a diplo matic recognition—whether to treat as the existing power the old Sovereign or the young aspirant— whether to offend the friends of the old order of things by recognising revolution, or the friends of the revolution by still adhering to the old order of things. Lord John has a dim kind of consciousness that all is not right within the Tory camp, that sedi tion is abroad, and that it is not the Liberals only who have seen fit to change their leader. Though Mr. Disraeli is not the only Parliamentary chit f who has met with rough usage from the political periodical of bis party, Lord John seems discomposed by the phenomenon, and anxiously inquires upon whom has devolved theleadership of the Tories,which. passed by so strange a caprice of fortune from Sir R. Peel to Mr. Disraeli. The question has remained unanswered, except so far as Mr. Disraeli's modesty permitted him to answer it in his own favour. The party did not respond heartily to the challenge of their opponents, and the question thus thrown out still awaits its solution. We have as little right to answer for the Con servative party, on a matter so peculiarly relating to their own internal police, as Lord John Russell himself, but we confess it would be to us a matter • of the most profound astonishment were it possible that the Conservative party should depose their present leader, and put any new aspirant in his place. Reminiscences are tedious, and comparisons , are odious, but before the Conservative party make up their minds to discard Mr. Disraeli they would do wisely to consider calmly whence they are come, whither they are going, and what other leadership is at their command. Let the Conservative party never forget the hopeless Slough of Despond in which they were wallowing when kind fortune first sent them Mr. Disraeli for a leader. They had undergone the heaviest misfortune that can befall a political combination. They had grown weary of a chief who was too liberal for their con tracted views of national policy, and avenged them selves upon him by an act of renunciation which left them without leaders, and apparently at the • mercy of their opponents. They were irretrievably committed to a cause the very worst and most un popular to which a party ever sacrificed its honour and its prospects. The Tory party, when Mr. Disraeli first took the lead of them, were in a posi tion of the most marked and violent hostility to the material interests of the whole country, and em barked on a career which seemed to tend to some thing little short of political annihilation. With untiring patience Mr. Disraeli set himself to bring order out of this chaos; he soothed their passions, he deferred to their prejudices; he even conde scended to speak their language; he fought their losing battle for them with heartiness enough to conciliate their confiience, and dressed up the jar gon of an exploded financial creed with rhetoric, metaphor, and epigram. It may be that these are not the portions of his past life upon which Mr. Dis raali looks back with the greatest atisfaction ; but, whatever the consistent advocates of Free Trade among his contemporaries or the philosophical his -torian who shall sit down to weigh his conduct in the balance of a rigid and impartial criticism may think of him, it would be unjust, ungrateful, and ungenerous in th e p ar t y , w hi c h he has redeemed from absolute disorganization; and made once more a real and effective power in the State, to forget for a single moment its signal obligations to him. Gra dually, almost imperceptibly, Mr. Disraeli has weaned his party from their most flagrant errors. He has taught them a lesson which they have been slow indeed to learn, but at which they are profi cient indeed, compared with what they were in the glorious days of Lord George Bentinck. He has taught them to profess, at any rate, and probably to feel, a sympathy for the great body of their couLtrymen, and to recognize the necessity og looking to opini o n f or su pp or t. Wh en h e found the Tory party, they were armed in impenetrable Prejudice ; under him they have become no longer an impediment, but competitors with the Liberals in the career of progress. Twice has he led them into office, and, if they were not or. either occasion able to find good anchorage for their storm-tossed vessel, the fault was not his, but rather that of his colleagues, who seemed on both occasions indefati gable in proving their incapacity fur the manage ment of affairs of State. It is Mr. Disraeli's mis ' fortune, and not a little also his fault, that he has been acting ever since he became a party leader with men whose mediocrity has been uo safeguard against the most extravagant mistakes, and who have uniformly contrived, by some gross and easily detected job, to draw down upon themselves the indignation of the country. But for Mr. Disraeli himself it must be said that, having uniformly to .fight an uphill battle, and to sustain a losing cause, he has acquitted himself in a manner to gain the sympathy of those most keenly opposed to his policy, and to prove that he possesses talents which, under happier circumstances, might have made his Administration eminently creditable to him self and useful to the country. Although unable to retain power, he has always retired from it . with undiminished strength, and never shown himself more powerful than at the moment when he has sustained the heaviest and most mortifying reverses; and all this he has done under every possible disadvantage, without large possessions, without aristocratic connexion nay, with the burden of an extraction peculiarly odious, as subsequent events have shown, to the party of which he was the leader. Which of all the county magnates whose broad acres have returned them to the House of Commons possesses a surer seat, and enjoys in a fuller degree the unhesitating confidence of his constituents, than the member for Buckinghamshire? Although peculiarly exposed to contests from the vicinity of his county to the metropolis, he has ever set all opposition at defiance, nor has his repeatedly avowed change of opinion on the subject of Protection, nor the general tendency to Liberalism which has marked his conduct, ever produced, so far as the public are aware, the slightest coolness between him and his supporters. We have never been slow to point out Mr. Dis raeli's errors, but if he be once deposed, who is there that can be put in his place ? Is it Mr. Henley whom the party would select to lead them back into the miry pool of prejudice from which they have just emerged? Will they find a Moses to conduct them once more to the promised land of office in Sir J. Yakington, Mr. Walpole, or the statesman and orator when: they at present delight to honour Mr. Bentinck ? The folly of such a choice would not be long in making itself felt. Such men would never have freed the Tories from their former diffi culties, nor would they maintain for a single month the advanced position which the party now holds. Let them remember that eight years ago they were all " cannon balls," impenetrable on one subject, at least, to the plainest and clearest argument. They may chafe at the hand which leads them, but they should never forget what they owe to the man who has taught them to be legislators, if he could not make them statesmen, and who has adorned their cause with a wit and eloquence such as it never merited, and which up to the present moment they seem wholly unable to appreciate.—Brass. THIS DAY'S MARKETS. To-day's market was very scantily supplied with Eng.. fish wheat, especially from Kent. The quality of the samples, however, was tolerably good. On the whole , about an average business was transacted, at Monday' 8 advance in the quctations. ua Foreign wheat was very firm in p rice, a n d there were no se llers except at quite 2 s per qua r te r above last week's cur rency.
