The India and China Alail steamer Tanjore has taken out £36,124 in specie. A letter has been published in defence of the good faith of the Roumanian Government. In Eng land, which is so largely interested in the honour of foreign countries, there must always be a dispo sition to receive statements showing the absence of any ground of complaint, and it would therefore be satisfactory to accept as conclusive iu the pre sent case the representations offered. But it is be lieved the individuals interested will be able to show that their claims are not so baseless as is alleged, and even if this were not the case the justifica tion of Roumania in altogether repudiating them, so far as it is based on the respective grounds that the city of Bucharest and not Roumania itself is liable, and that a State has a legal right to forfeit caution money, would appear to most persons con versant with questions of international finance to be rather specially than absolutely satisfactory. At the same time, it is to be admitted that a sys tout on the part of speculators of obtaining conces sions which they have no certainty of being able to Carry out, in the trust that in the event of failure they will be able to escape the stipulated penalty by frightening the contracting Government with threats of damaging their public credit, has in many cases been pursued, and is one that requires con demnation.

Wilkinson and Cooper, all of them settlers at Mohaka, were massacred on Sunday last by 'Te Kooti, with about 40 friendly natives, prin cipal! women and children. On the 14th part of the force from Napier reached Moliaka, when Te Kooti was found to have retired with his plunder the day before, having lest about ten of his party killed. He burnt the settlers' homesteads, &c., before retiring. After leaving some cavalry and a part of the force in the district, most of the militia returned to Napier, which is now declared to be threatened. The settlers' families between Mobaka and the suburbs of Napier (a district of about 40 miles) have taken refuge in that town.

APPREHENSION or A COINER. —A young man named Cane was placed at the bar charged with having counter feit coin in his possession. Brannan, the police-officer engaged by the mint, said that on Saturday last he went to the isoner's lodgings, in Smith's-court, and there ho found 30 half-crowns, 30 florins, and 35 shillings, all counterfeit. The base coins had all been " sbumned," that is rubbed with lamp Llack and tallow grease to give them the appearance of having been used. The pri soner denied all knowledge of the cAns, and sail ho did not live in the house in South-court, Drury-lane, in which they then were. The landlady, however, said the pri soner had occupied lodgingings in the hou3s for about six months. When he was taken into custody ho succeeded in swal:owiLg a number of counterfeit shillings, but he cuult not. be prevented from doing so, as he had got the shillings in his mouth bolero t hey could bo taken from him. Ile, however, denied swallowing the shillings, and said it was only tobacco. The counterfeit coin was all car, fully wrapped up in bits of newspaper. Inspector Brennan, of the F division, said be was pre sent when the prisoner was taken. On being searched o took from his coat pockot, among other things a por t:on of a newspaper, and on comparing it it corre sponded with the paper the conterfeit coins were wrapped in, and on the two pieces being placed together it fitted exactly. Evidence having been given of the finding of a box con aiuing the base coins in the prisoner's bedroom, Mr. 4aliBltatu fully committed the prisoner. THAMES. SAVAGE ASSAULT ON A WIFE.— Alexander Cook ; of No. 113, Cornwall-street, St. George-in-the-East, was charged with violently assaulting his wife, Ann Cook. The parties had a slight quarrel, which ripened into mischief, and the prisoner knocked down his wife, dragged her about his room by the hair of her heal, and after breaking a large quantity of crockery and other things, he kicked her vio lently on the eye, and reduced her to a state of insensibi lity. A politte,nan named \Vickers, No. 17U K, found her in a moat dep!orable condition, covered with blood, and her head and face with bruises. Tho case could not be completed at present, an d the prisoner was remands d. ANOTHER VIOLENT ASSAULT.—WiIIiam Hutchins, a labourer, aged 22, of Ratcliff- highway, was charged with assaulting Mary Jane Martins, in the Green Boat beer shop, St. George's-in-the-East. A quarrel took place between the parties, and they called each other very bad names. The prisoner struck the woman, kicked her, an rendered her insensible. Ile was fined £5, and in default sentenced to two months' imprisonment. MARLBOROUGH -STREET. A POLICE MISTAKE—Annie Myers, a respectably dressed young female, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with being a common prostitute and behaving in a dis orderly manner in Regent-street. Mr. Sayer, from the office of Mr. E. Lewis, of Great Marlborough-street, appeared for the accused. Middleton, 55 0, gave evidence to the effect that about one yesterday morning he saw the accused in the Hay market (accompanied by another female) following gentle men and accosting them, and having seen her in the Haymarket on a former occasion, he took her into custody. In answer to Mr. Sayer, the witness said that ho was un able to say the night when he last saw the accused in the Haymarket, but on that occasion the accused behaved in a disorderly manner. Another constable gave evidence of having seen the accused in the Haymarket, but he could not say when. Mr. Tyrwbitt said her evidence was very loose. Mr. Sayer addressed the magistrate on behalf of the accused, and said that she was a very respectable young woman, and that there were no grounds for the accusation against her of being a prostitute, she being a respectable young woman living with her brother, who was empl oye d at large premises in Jermyn-street. The accused with her brother had been to the theatre, and were waiting for a cab, when the constable came and took hold of the accused and took her into custody. Ho (Mr. Sayer) considered that there was a great want of discrimination on the part► of the police. Mr. Tyrwhitt, while admitting that the police had a troublesome duty to perform, said that ho had noticed that there had been a good deal of indiscriminate seizing o f p , :rsons in the Haymarket of late, and he could not help thinking that the police were rather too sharp. The ac cused ought never to have bean in custody, and she would be discharged. 'DESTRUCTIVE FIRE AT ISLINGTON.--This morn ing, between the hours of 8 and 9 o'clock, considerable alarm was caused by the sudden outbreak of a fire on the extensive premises of Mr. Brown, a carpenter, and Mr. Wilcox, a pianoforte maker, in St. James's-street, Pack ington-street.

PACIFIC ATTITUDE OF THE PARIS WORKMEN. PARTS, SUNDAY. The riots in Paris attained their clim a x on Thursday. The next day there was a visibleialling off in vivacity, and yes. terday there was nothing deserving the name of riot. To whomsoever these extraordinary disturbances may have been due, it seems to have been decided that they have fulfilled their mission, and that Paris may now be left in peace. As on the preceding evenings, large numbers of people congregated in the neighbourhood of the Boulevard Montmartre, in the hope of enjoying a little more of this cheap entertainment. On the whole, however, in the Montmartre neighbourhood, they passed a somewhat dull evening. The crowds came up earlier than before, and by seven o'clock the Boulevard was closely packed. The circulation of vehicles speedily became impossible. At the same time it was evident that the authorities meant to tolerate no more kiosk smashing. At seven a regiment of dragoons passed down the main thoroughfares from the Madeleine to the Place de la Bastille. The Paris Guard took up its position again, and at half-past seven a regiment of cuirassiers made its appearance. All these arrivals were welcomed with cheers from at least a part of the populace. Probably the multi- tude wanted employment of some kind ; possibly they were angry with the rioters for the wholesale destruction of the preceding evening. These little incidents, however, did little to' relieve the tedium of the evening, for after the arrival of the troops the performanze became intolerably slow. At nine o'clock the region round about was as densely crowded as at any time during the week; but still no revolutionary operations were attempted. There were a few confused cries, just the same as in any other crowd, but nothing of the seditious character, not even the " Marseillaise." Some playful larks were inaugurated by the gamins weary of waiting. One or two indi viduals, sitting enjoying their coffee or wine at the caftS tables, were upset ; and there was a general uproar, caused by the announcement that the Emperor was coming. Then folks settled down again, awl there was shortly another small assault by gamins upon the occupants of the caf6s. This piece of civil war decidedly did not prosper. The eaters and drinkers formed line and repulsed the assailants, many of them receiving a castigation with caf6 chairs which they are not likely to forget. "One is never Bowel] protected as when one protects oneself." At half-past ten a second regiment of cui.assiers came up by the Rue de la Paix. All the Boulevards from the Rue Pelletier were completely blocked up, and one caf6 set the example by closing. At the same time the Rues Vivienne, Richelieu, Montmartre, Faubourg Montmartre, and Drouot were closed by bands of serpents-de-ville. But no rioters appeared. The business became ridiculous. At last some few persons, anxious apparently to save the credit of the city, began with "Vivo Rochefort !" and " Vire La Lanterner Shops began to close very speedily upon hearing this. A band of roughs coming from the direction of the Faubourg Montmartre, and singing the " Marseillaise," appeared upon the scene next, making their way towards the Place de la Bastille, "evidently," says the Patrie, " with sinister intentions." Sommations to disperse were made, and the cavalry then came up and charged down the street. General sauce-cruiTeut. Several persons were wounded, and the crowd was driven from the central streets into the adjoining by-ways and pas sages. The irrepressible Parisians soon came up again, however, and disorder recommenced on the Montmartre Boulevard. A mob, numbering about 500, according to an official paper, armed with sticks and the like weapons, obtained from the demolitions at the Vaudeville, com menced smashing glasses and injuring the fronts of shops. The cavalry again came up. There was another somma tion, another charge, and another general stampede. This ended the "riot." By a quarter to twelve the Boulevard Montmartre was quite calm. A small crowd lingered in some of the adjacent streets, but quiet was restored much earlier than on any preceding evening. The loss in this battle was proportionately less severe. Tie insurgent army left many score prisoners in thehands of the police. Imperialism, on the other hand, was damaged to the extent of one kiosk upset, divers panes of glass smashed, the forcible amputation of some caf6 chair legs, and the further disfiguring of a few shop fronts. At Belleville, however, a graver disturbance took place. There a large mob gathered together, as early as six o'clock, on the site of the old barrier of La Cour- tille. The crowd numbered four or five hundred, but did nothing until the arrival of the soldiery, horse and foot, who came up about half-past seven. Their appearance was greeted with some confused cries, and a shower of stones plainly testified that the Democrats of Belleville did not hold the military in such high esteem as did the people of Montmartre. The troops passed up and down towards Menilmontant, but the longer they stayed the more hostile the assemblage became. The showers of stones became more frequent, and at length the work of devastation was recommenced. Some kiosks were over- turned, the neighbouring workshops were invaded, and the planks taken away. With these the mob endeavoured to form a barricade. Sommations were then made, and the hussars of the Guard charged no less than five times, finally succeeding in clearing the Belleville Boulevard. Before midnight things were pretty quiet. The damage in this district was very considerable ; but it is difficult to ascertain to what extent the work of demolition went on, for the ruins of Thursday evening were still visible. One wine•shop was quite destroyed, and two houses wore the appearance of being burnt. An apothecary had his establishment invaded, and most of his medicine bottles smashed. The Gaulois says that one rioter was killed. lie attacked an officer of the 11th chasseurs at Menilmontant, and tore off his epaulette. An encounter took place, in which the officer was injured, and, losing temper, thrust his sword through the man. By accident, one cuirassier fell from his horse, and was severely injured. These represent all the casualties of the evening. Yesterday the force of the riots was entirely spent. Nowhere was there any attempt at violence. At the Boulevard Montmartre the crowd was as large as ever, but it consisted solely of lookers-on, who grouped and walked about without any disturbance. The caf4s were all open, and compensated for the miseries of the week by driving a roaring trade. Hussars, cuirassiers, Gerdes de Paris, and sergents-de-ville were all on the spot, but not once were their services required. Now comes the great question, and all the Liberal papers unite in asking it, What has been the true cause of the week's tumult ? The question is difficult to answer with- out making assumptions which do not rest upon evidence, but it is certain that this riot differed from all others of the kind. The violence of the police was requisite in the first instance to commence it. Throughout the week there has been nothing like a collision between the mob and the police or the soldiers. The former pursued their devasta tions until the latter came up, when there was a general dispersal. The Paris public generally has had nothing to do with the riots. They have been carried on in gangs by men of disreputable appearance, who met with very little sympathy, and in some cases with opposition. Is it probable, as the Temps inquires, that insurgents seeking to overturn the Government would have taken up their position on the most open boulevards, would have chosen night as the time of their operations, and have confined themselves to smashing the property of innocent persons? Another fact is not of less significance. The Paris workmen, the respectable men in blouses, took no part in tl:e riots. At Belleville it was noticeable th a t numbers of the workmen stood at the doors of their houses, ready to protect themselves, but that the marauders were left to themselves. In many instances—and even the Patrie recounts some—the workmen formed themselves into detachments, and beat off the scoundrels who were wantonly injuring private property. At Belle ville, indeed, the disturbances seemed to have been stopped entirely by the determination of the workmen to punish the next gang that made its appearance. Who, then, is answeralle for this week's work? Many rioters who are now in custody were given up by the workmen. The people—properly so called—cannot be held account able for the destruction. There has been a remarkable raid upon editors of journals during the last day or two. The R flyer has come to great grief. All its writers have been arrested, or have disappeared ; but it is announced that the paper will still go on. Some of the editors of comparatively moderate papers, such as the Sack, are in custody. 1) urn' LLE and Co., Belfast, are the largest olders of Whisky in the world.

PARLIAMENTARY BUSINESS. The struggle between the two Houses of Parliament commences this evening, when Earl Granville will move that the Irish Church Disestablishment Bill be read a second time by the Upper House. The Eail of Har rowby intends to propose that this stage of the bill shall be postponed for three months, which is tantamount to a rejection of the measure. The debate will, in all likeli hood, last four nights, and the division will probably take place during the small hours of Saturday morning. The House of Commons has its work cut out for to-night, there being thirty-five " orders of the day" entered for consideration. Prominent among these are the Endowed Schools Bill (committee), the Contagious Diseases Bill (committee), and the Habitual Criminals Bill (second reading). The city of Dublin will in all probability occupy a considerable portion of the time of the House. In the first place, Mr. O'Reilly intends to ask the Attorney-General for Ireland what course the Government propose to take with regard to the Dublin freemen, taking into account the fact that a commission cannot now issue. Mr. Noel, the Conservative " whip," will endea vour to get a new writ issued fur that city in the room of Sir Arthur Guinness. This, however, will not be granted before Sir George Grey has asked leave to bring in a bill for the purpose of disfrancbisingthe freemen in the Irish capital. The statue of Sir R. Peel will give rise to two questions ; and Sir F. Heygate will want to know something about the Irish policy of the Government, especially the views taken by her Majesty's advisers con cerning the Party Processions Act. Sir Percy Burrell intends to ask for a return of all the expenses consequent upon the bringing in of the O'Sullivan Disability Bill ; stating also from what source they have been, or are to be defrayed. There will be another morning sitting to-morrow, for the purpose of getting the Bankruptcy Bill through com mittee. In the evening Mr. Pease has given notice to call attention to the need of an early report from the Royal Commission, appointed in 18G7, to inquire into the dura tion of the coalfields ; and Sir John Hay will bring for ward the question of the Flying Squa Iron, and will propose " that it is inexpedient to employ so large a force without any specific object where they cannot be readily available for the public service." The adjourned debate upon the Hypothec Abolition (Scotland) Bill will be continued, after which the Libel Bill is to be considered in committee. The Sunday Trading Bill is also entered for the same stage. _ Among the measures down for second reading on Wed nesday are the Seeds Adulteration Bill and the Sunday and Ragged Scl.o As Bill. The Married Women's Pro perty Bill will be taken in committee, and the adjourned debate on the Marriage with a Deceased Wife's Sister Bill is also appointed for Wednesday. On the following day two important bills the Mines Regulation Bill and the University Tests Bill—are entered for committee, and the County Administration (County Financial Boards) Bill for second reading. On Friday Mr. Stavely Hill will ask for a select committee to in moire and report upon the operation of the Commercial Treaty with Prance ; and Sir John Trelawny will call attention to the arrangements of the House of Commons. TRADE AND FINANCE The ann yancements of constant failures throughout the manufacturing districts shew the great dulness that still exists in trade. This week some prominent firms have gone, and it is stated that the failure will affect other firms, and that thus a considerable number of hands will be thrown out of employment. Although this must be productive of great immediate distress to the operatives, there is no doubt that, so far at least as the cotton trade is concerned, con sumption cannot be too much restricted. We are, there fore, inclined to look upon the shutting up of the mills with more complacency than we otherwise should, as we feel convinced that such a course will be for the ultimate good of the trade. The course of the cotton trade has been a matter of sur prise to everyone interested in it. It is very evident that great difference of opinion exists between the producers of cotton and the ultimate consumers of it as to its present value, and until this great discrepancy is done away with no return of activity can be looked for in the trade. For a long time after the American Civil War the question as to the supply and probable value of cotton at Liverpool was very problematical. Accordingly the heavy ship nients of manufactured goods made to foreign markets were readily disposed of at very satisfactory prices, native consumers being convinced that if prices did not go higher the rates then current would at least be maintained. In course of time, however, the markets again became re-stocked, and it was soon disco vered that the supply of goods available was more than sufficient to meet all immediate wants. Purchases were accordingly made more cautiously, and the quotations abroad gradually receded until, as has been the case for some time past, goods could be purchased abroad at a leas figure than they could be laid down in Manchester. This arose, after all, from the most natural causes. The spinner at Manchester looked for his standard of prices to the pro bable supply of cotton at Liverpool and the course of the quotations there, while the native consumer in the East as naturally took the basis of the available supplies of goods immediately on the spot or on passage. And there is no doubt that both were right, and had things taken their usual course the event would have proved far otherwise than it has been. Consumption has been restricted within the narrowest limits, owing chiefly to the adverse times upon which we have fallen, and to the fact that mercantile profits, both at home and abroad, have been reduced to a minimum. The great distrust which has been the characteristic of the interval that has elapsed since the closing of the " Corner House" has materially affected all branches of trade, and has checked speculation in all descriptions of produce. We fully believe that, while profits have been less, they have been more secure, but the savings of the people generally have been very small, and the amount of money available for articles of clothing and luxury has accordingly been greatly dimi nished. In point of fact, it is a great question whether, looking at the relative proportion of the supply of cotton at Liverpool, and the extent of the consumptive demand, whether the present range of quotations is not considerably higher than the cicutnstances of the case warrant. Apparently such is the truth of the case, but the changes in the aspect of the market have recently been such as to lead to the inference that a considerable decline must soon take place in the value of the raw material, the addition to the stock since the Ist of April being about 70,000 bales, while there is an excess of the quantity at least over last year of 53,000 bales. A good cotton crop would go far to obviate all present difficulties, but there is reason to believe that the present yield will not be greatly in excess of last year. Opinion in America points to 3,000,000 bales as the probable out turn, but this is certainly . an outside figure. The position of the Southern planters is certainly satisfactory so far as pecuniary matters are corcerned, as last year's crop was raised at a minimum of cost, and was held at very remunerative prices. This year, how ever, the freedmen are in a more independent position, and have shewn very little disposition to turn out into the fields. This is a difficulty that threatens to become chronic in the Southern labour market. After an unpro fitable year, when common adversity has drawn freedmen and planters into closer dependence upon one another, labour contracts will be secured on advantageous terms. But in times of prosperity there will always he a difficulty in getting the negro to work, and it is only natural that he should advance his terms for his labour in proportion to the competition for it. With regard to the crop itself, a larger area of land appears to have been placed under cultivation this year ; but, so far, the weather has not proved favourable, and the plant is decidedly backward. The p lanters appear te have resorted largely to the use of fertilisers instea d of opening up virgin soil. There is, therefore, rea d th pti_tp s believe that not only will the c backwF season, but that it has cost a greater. ].onurop be tl w ay ill t s o ev ra e r e e than season, last year's.

The Ascot meeting has thrown no new light on the St. Leger,with the exception of proving that the whole of the horses that ran in the Derby are a very mo3erate lot indeed. It is a pity that Bri gantine was not entered, as she could not have lost this rich prize. There is nothing with a chance now left in but Pretender, Thorwaldsen, Duke of Beau fort, and The Drummer. The Windsor gathering commences to-morrow. The Two-year-old Plate looks a good thing for Swift or Saxon. Border Knight ought to secure the Eaton Handicap, and Acorn or Stork the Thames Handicap Plate. The Royal Stakes i s at the mercy of Flyawsy Jack or Prince. Choral is my selection for the Windsor Handicap, and First Emperoif meant, is will w net badly treated in the Welter in the Windsor Stakes. Cup. lialnGpationn°Taces take place on Thursday and Fri day, and if the weather is fine will be sups to attract an enormous attendance of Londoners. For the Surrey and Middlesex Stakes I think the race will result in a match between Our Mary Ann and Distaff ; and after Temple's running at Ascot he ought to have no difficulty in securing the Claremont Stakes.
