CITY, Two o'CLocK. Less activity has been apparent in the markets for foreign and colonial produce during the last few days. Tea has been very quiet, as parties are limiting the arrival of the overland mail. For Agar the demand has been inactive ; fully late rates, however, have been current. A steady inquiry has been experienced for the better quali ties of coffee, and prices are firm. Stocks show a falling off compared with those of the same period last year. Rice has been dull, and in fruit and 'Aims scarcely any business has been reported. Tallow continues firm, and prices have shown an improved tendency. The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday closed heavily, and prices, were unaltered. The sales `were estimated at 7,000 bales. On the Stock Ex change only a very limited business was transacted la Railway Shares, and values tended downwards. The steamer Orissa, which leaves on the 12th inst. for Bombay, will take out silver to the amount of £81,250. The decline in the French Funds yesterday amounted to nearly 1 per cent., the 3 per cents h aving closed at 70.5 for the account. further diminution of buisiness is reported in t he discount market. Until the commercial °Perations of the New Year are actively commenced, the supply of bills will necessarily continue i kther limited. Meanwhile the abundance of money has increased in consequence of the payment of the dividends. The rates, therefore, tend down- Wards, and approved descriptions of mercantile Paper have been negotiated a fraction under the Minimum of the Bank of England, where the applications are now comparatively limited. The usual half-yearly meeting of proprietors in the London and Greenwich Railway Company took place to-day, at which the accounts for the half-year were presented showing a balance of £12,025 6s. 9d. From this the directors reeom- Mended a dividend of ss. 6d. per share for the half year, which having been agreed to, the meet ing adjourned. The Teviot has arrived from Alexandria, with £ 5 8,700 in gold. Silver continues firm at full rates, but business is very quiet, as usual just after the completion of t he shipments by the steamer for the East. The settlement of th e mon thly a ccou nt i s ma ki ng f alre ntable progress, but the market is still in a very sensitive stat e , ow i ng t o th e unse ttl e d f ee li ng w ith sal and to C on ti nen t a l p o liti cs .

The :NOW Threes are 951 to 96, and the Reduced 95 Z- to 96, Eichequer Bills are firm at 40s. to 435., and the Bonds are marked 1001. India Loan De bentures have declined to 991, and the Bonds are P s . Prem. The Government broker has made an iOvestment of £29,000 in Reduced Annuities. In the Foreign Market business is quiet, and (Potations show a downward tendency. Turkish 6 Per Cents., 901 to 91 ; ditto Scrip, 4 to 31 dis. ; the 4 Per Cents, have receded to 105/ ; Brazilian 5 per Cents, to 102 ; Mexican to 191; Portuguese to 468 ; and Dutch 4 per Cents. to 1011 ; Cuba 7 per Cents. have been dealt in at 101 ; Peruvian (Megan —Arica and Tacna) 41 per Cents, at 991 ; Spanish at 451 ; and the Deferred is flat at 30 ; Russian 41- per Cents, are marked 991 to 1001. Chilian Loan is about Ito dis. The,New Victoria Railway Debentures are nomi nally quoted 107 to 108. The Railway Share Market has exhibited rather more activity, but in most of the principal under takings a decided decline has taken place. Great Northern, Brighton, and South-Eastern have declined 10s. ; Eastern Counties and Midland, 15s. ; Caledonian, Lancashire and Yorkshire, North -Western, South-Western, Norfolk, and North astern (Berwick), £1; and North British, £1 10s, The foreign lines are flat. Northern France have declined ss. ; Paris and Lyons, Os. to 10s. ; and Lombardo-Venetian about 15s. • East India railway shares continue very de pressed, and the slight symptoms of improvement lately noticed disappeared when the decline in the value of the English funds took place. As the security is considered unexceptionable, the depres sion can only be attributed to the excessive supply of these shares floating upon the market. When it is recollected that the aggregate amount of capital N vhich the public have undertaken to s u b scr ib e f or these undertakings is £35,000,000, it will be aPParent that some time must elapse before they tak e up what may be considered their proper Position among the investments bearing high rates of interest, he i _ n the Colonial Market past Indian Shares are Trunk of havin g d eclined abo u t £ 1 to £1 10s. Grand uik 01 ' Canada and Great Western of Canada has lbeen at about former rates. Joint Stock •Bank and Miscellaneous Shares are ve ry inactive, and show little variation in values. 3 BRITISH FUNDS—CLOSING PRICES. 3 Per Cent. Reduced Annuities 96 51 6 5/ v.Per Cent.

LAW: - INTELLIGENCA-( 17 118 DAY.) COURT OF CHANCERY. (Before the Lord Chancellor.) APPEAL-WYTHES V. LABOUCREitE. The farther hearing of this part-heard appeal was re. sumed tiii s morning. Sir Rid lard Bethell, Q.C., is being heard for the r espon dent. It is expected the arguments will occupy the whale day, (Before the Lords Justices.) At the sitting of the Court of Chancery this morning the following gentlemen, on their being severally appointed Queen's counsel, took their places within the bass of the Lord Chancellor's Court, the Lords Justices' Court, the Master of the Rolls' Court, and the Vice-Chartcellors'— Sir R. T. Kindersley, Sir John Stuart, and Sir W. Page Wood—Courts, viz., Mr. Rodwell, Q.C., Mr., Hawkins, Q.C., and Mr. Giffard, Q.C. question, and that about three that morning an altercation having taken place between her and the landlady, the complainant came to the assistance of the latter, when by some means, she got a severe wound on the forehead front a heavy, plated candlestick, used by the accused, which was of such a nature &s to compel her to seek surgi cal advice, and from which she still appeared to suffer some pain. Mr. Lewis said he understood, from the gentleman who represented the complainant, that she had no wish to pro secute the case, as the accused would undertake to leave the house, and, with his worship's permission, the charge would be withdrawn. The complainant's advocate said that there were medica and other expenses. Mr. Lewis said he would undertake that the expenses (x all kinds should be paid. The accused was then discharged. RIDDLE V. JACKSON.-PETITION. This was a petition of a ward of court, menial fourteen days after attaining majority, to draw a reversionary in terest of one-third part of the sum of £4,000 stock, £lB7 consols £96 17s. 6d. reduced, and £1 Bs. sd. cash. Mr. Deane appeared for the petitioner, and referred to the following decided cases in support of his application— Long v. Long—Chancery Reports, Lord Lyndhurst's opinion, 123, Stewart and Chambers. Ball v. Hughes, Money v. Money—Milvey, Chambers' Reports, 98-2 d De Gex, Macnaughten, and Gordon. Longbottom v. Person, sth March, 1858. Lord Justice Knight Bruce said that his difficulty in this case was whether in a promise of marriage to aninfant ward of Court, carried into effect in majority, the Court could act upon the consent of the wife ; or, whether the Court should not deal with such a case as if the marriage had taken place in minority, and act accordingly ? Its a matter of feeling, so far as his lordship was concerned, he would not grant a warrant of committal in this cas a, separately -and distinctly from the matter of right. In the case of Flanders v. Flanders, before the Master of the Rolls, the Court refused - to grant the order. It was clearly proved that proposals for marriage were made and accepted during the wife's minority. It was arraigned enter se that a part of this money was to be paid to the mother. Mr. Deane proposed to take a reference to chambers. Lord Justice Knight Bruce said that it should be dis tinctly understood that the wife was not bound to make a settlement of her reversionary interest unless she pleases, and the Court were not at present prepared to pay her the money. It was arragned that the case would be again mentioned on a future day. The Master of the Rolls is expected to give judgment to morrow morning in Swinfen v. Swinfen. CITY 'SHERIFFS COURT. EXTRAORDINARY ACTION UPON A BILL OF EXCD:ANGE. -CAUTION TO ACCEPTORS,. important judgment. At this court, yesterday, was tried (IVlayhewv.Siht in theeppard) l t a h w e f o o f ll b or s g of s e i x n e V att ar l 4v e , as a e n , d inv a o m lv o in st g a novel point The plaintiff is a solic:itor, and the action was brought to recover a sum of £lO Is. 6d. due upon a dishonoured bill of exchange, drawn by one Bolton, accepted by defendant, and discounted by plaintiff. As the bill was in defendant's possession, he gave the first version of the transaction as foll ows :—Being in want of a sum of £5, he called upon Bolton, who was clerk to plaintiff, and whom he had known for a long time, and asked him if Mr. Mayhew would le] id him £5. Bolton said, "Ho won't lend so little as that, but £lO he will advance if you will give him a bill.":Bolto n then drew and defendant accepted a bill for £lO 4s. 6d., and 'it was handed to plaintiff, who cashed it and paid it to his bankers. Of the proceeds Bolton kept £5 and defendant had £5. The bill became due on the 9th Aug. last, and was on the 10th returned' from plaintiff's bankers dishonoured. It appears that Bolton had communi cated with defendant on the 9th, and defendant called at plaintiff's office on the 10th and paid Bolton £5, and received the bill from him. He (defendant) did not see any harm in paying Bohm. Bolton agreed to pay his share. Mr. Mayhew, as plaintiff, stated that Bolton came to him one morning, and said he was in great distress, and wanted to borrow £lO. As he had been some time in plaintiff's ser vice, that person agreed to lend him the sum if he could get a responsible person to accept the bill. Bolton proposed defendant, and Mr. Mayhew agreed to take the bill. He (Mr. Mayhew) looked to the defendant as the respon sible party. Now, when the bill was dishonoured, it should have been handed to the plaintiff, and most certainly Bolton had no right with it. He was not authorised to receive money. He had robbed plaintiff, and was now in the house of Detention awaiting his examina tion, which would t Lke place on Friday next at Bow street. The first intimation plaintiff had that the bill had been dishonoured was in going through his cash accounts. He contended that defendant had not obtained the bill in the usual course and that he was still responsible. His Honour thought so too. In any instance, even if Bolton had a general authority to receive money, in the . present one he was the very last person to whom defendant should have paid money, as the drawer of a bill, as a person jointly liable. Defendant knew a great deal better, though he talked about paying his share. There was no such thing as shares in a bill of exchange, and the acceptor was liable for the whole amount. In this case defendant might have honestly ob tained the bill. Certainly he did not in the usual course, and he must pay it now. Defendant—What ! all of it ? His Honour—Yes ; all of it. Mr. Mayhew will not be hard. You can pay it by instalments. An order was then made in favour of plaintiff, and de fendant was ordered to pay the whole amount by instal ments. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-(TIIIS DAY.) BOW-STREET ROBBERY BY A SERVANT.—WiIIiam Day, a middle aged man, was placed at the bar, charged with robbing his employer, Mr. Baldwin, a cab proprietor, of Southampton mews, Russell-square.' Mr. Baldwin said the prisoner was, up to the 4th of September last, in his employ as horsekeeper. His wages were 20s. a week with rooms for his family, and part of his duty was to. wait up once or twice a week to receive the earnings of the men as they returned home with their cabs. On the 4th of September it was his turn to remain up, and between one and two in the morning seven cab drivers brought home their money, which was delivered to the pri soner, and the names of the men entered on a list with the amounts they had paid attached to their names. The prisoner it appeared received £3 Is., and next day it was found he had gone off with the money. It was not thought he had stolen it until in the course of the day the boxes, into which the men always placed their money, were re turned, through the parcels delivery company, empty. Information was then given to the police, but until yester day nothing had been heard of the prisoner, when he was taken into custody. Henry Holt, a cab-driver, said, on the morning of the sth of September he left his money box with, the prisoner. It contained eight shillings. It ought to have been de livered to Mr. Baldwin the same day. William Green,wood gave similar evidence. His box contained nine shillings. Sergeant Lambert, of the E division of police, said he took the prisoner into custody yesterday, at Notting-hill, Bayswater. Ho was , at the time working in one of the omnibus yards of the General Omnibus Company. He told Day he was a police-constable, and that he must consider himself in custody on a charge of robbing Mr. Baldwin. He said he had taken $3 ls., and it was a bad job. Mr. Jardine asked the prisoner what he had to say to the charge. Day said he had nothing to say, excepting that he had had the money. Drink had led him to commit the robbery. He lost part of the money, and got drunk with the rest. Committed for trial. ROBBERY IN ST. GAES's.—John Donovan, James Jones, and Ann Leary were charged with robbing Ignatz Welszheimo German, of 14s. 3d. The prosecutor, a poor deplorable-looking object, whose only covering consisted of tiny bits of cloth sewed together, and strips of dirty calico bound round that part of his body not covered by his other tatters, said he lived in Church-street, Bloomsbury. On Sunday last, about 11 o'clock he was partly undressed—(laughter)—and about going to bed, when the three prisoners burst into the room and commenced searching for his money, which just before he had put into a bag and placed under his bed. One of the prisoners held him firmly down, whilst the others rummaged the place about, and having found the;bag con taining twelve shillings, two sixpences, twelvepence in cop per, and a threepenny piece, they left the room. All three of the parties lived in the same house as he did, but till the robbery he had never seen them before. He was certain they were the people who robbed him. On being asked what they had to say, Donovan (a big Irishman) said—Rob him, indeed I—the poor devil; who'd ever think he'd got any money ? I've no occasion to take his dirty money, He's been telling great lies. All I know about the business is that I was called to his room in consequence of his throwing this woman on his bed and swearing she'd got his money. The dirty vagabon'— I got his money 1 why I know no more about it than the most innocent thing unborn. (Laughter.) Got his money I well, I like that. (Laughter.) He was taking liberties with the woman, and I went to see what he was about. I never went into his room. There were four other people sleeping in the Frenchman's room, and they were all wide awake. I never had his money. (Laughter.) The other prisoners also denied all knowledge of the robbery. The prisoners were remanded for a week. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. VIOLENT ASSAULT ON A FEMALE.—Mary Thompson, a ladylike female, was charged with violently assaulting Christie Annette Hayward, at 29;Lower Grosvenor-street, Grilsvenor-sqUare, with a plated candlestick. Mr. Edward Lewis, of Great Marlborough-street, ap peared for the, accused, and a solicitor appeared for the couiplainaut. The accused on being placed in the dock seemed greatly to feel the position she was placed in. It appears that the accused is a lodger at the house in SPORTING EVTELLIGENCE. TATTERSALL' S--YESTERDA.T. A great show of business was made, but if the actusl transactions were not important, yet the incidents of specu lation were sufficient to excite Curiosity. The most inte resting movements were with regard to the Two Thousand. 5 to 1 was laid once to a poney against The Promised Land, who was not exactly firm, and those odds might have been obtained with ltttle difficulty throughout the afternoon. A report was circulated to the effect that Ralpho, who has recently been very uns t ea d y i n the market, had 'been sold by Lord Zealand, and that the horse had quitted Yorkshire and is now located at Joseph Dawson's stable at Ilsley. 10 to 1 was offered against him; Phantom, perhaps, being the second favourite.

The following additional correspondence has been handed to us for publication : War-office, Nov. 17, 1858. My Lord,—ln acknowledging the receipt of your lordship's letter of the 16th inst., recommending Major Walker to be lieut.-colonel of the 2d Tower Hamlets Militia, vice Dickson displaced, I have the honour to acquaint you that I deem it expedient to give the latter officer one more opportunity of withdrawing his refusal to resign his commission. In communicating this to him, your lordship will inform him my instruction that he be displaced in consequence of his refusal to resign was based on the grounds that while in command of the regiment he did not administer the interior affairs of the corps, more particularly those connected with the officers' mess, with that good judgment and unre mitting attention and superintendence which the regulations of the service enjoin, and which it is my duty to enforce. It is on these grounds alone that I came to this decision, and should Colonel Dickson still decline to avail himself of this opportunity of resigning, now for the last time presented to him, I shall feel it my duty to adhere to the decision that he be displaced. I have the honour to be, .my lord, your lordship's obedient servant, (Signed) J. PEEL. To Field Marshal the Viscount Combermere, G.C.8., &c. 10, Stanhope-terrace, Hyde-park-gardens, Nov. 25, 1858. _ _ Sir,—l have the honour to acknowledge the re ceipt of your letter of the 20th inst., together with a copy of a letter addressed by the Secretary for War to Viscount Combermere, and in reply I beg you will inform his lordship that in vindication of my own honour and standing in the service I adhere to my determination not to resign my com mission, as I feel confident that when fairly brought, as I intend to be, face to face with my accusers, I shall be able to prove that the charges of Colonel the Earl of Wilton are as frivolous as they are false, and as an officer and a gentleman I have never dis graced a profession to which it has been my pride for so many years to belong. This determination, I am happy to say, is ap proved of by every military man and a large circle of friends who have done me the honour to look into all the circumstances and correspondence connected ' with the case, independent of which, having taken legal advice on the subject, I hereby solemnly pro , test against the Secretary for War's sentence, as being contrary to law—vide Militia Act. 55 Geo. 111., c. 168, secs. 1,2, which require due notice of any offence involving punishment being served upon the accused within six months after the dis embodiment of the regiment ; and as my offence, if 'moved, after all, is admitted to be only an error of judgment with regard to the mess by Gen. Peel, and that took place in 1855-6, during the embodi ment of the regiment, and as no notice whatever has subsequently been delivered to me, the illegality of the recent and partial proceedings, and my threatened displacement founded upon them, is as undeniable as it is unprecedented.—l am, sir, your very obedient servant, _ _ (Signed) LOTHIAN S. DICKSON, Lieut.-Colonel 2d Tower Htmlets Militia, Deputy-Lieut. and J. P. for Middlesex. Bertie Williams Wynn, Esq., Cle - ± to Tower Hamlets Lieutenancy. MYSTERIOUS AFFAIR.—The following mysterious circumstances, which have produced no small amount of ex citement in the neighbourhood of Glasnevin, took place on Friday last. A fine little girl named Mary Gartland, the daughter of a poor man residing at a short distance from the seventh lock on the Royal Canal, went on Thursday evening to fetch some water, and, not returning-, her brothers and sisters became alarmed, and on their going to the canal bank they saw the jug which the little girl had carried with her floating on the water. Information of the circumstance having been conveyed to the police station, the next morning police-constable 63 D proceeded witliatae drag, &c., to search for the body of the ch il d , of whose there was very little doubt. While eng a g ed in the search the constable found the drag resisted by some soft substance. After vigorous efforts he succeede d in bringin g to face the body of a man, which, o n being got on shore, seemed the by the the dress, &c., to be that of a gentleman, and to have been in the water about th ree weeks, decomposition havin g gone on extensive 3 , . Around th e neck of th e body a red e sthilekohtrerdeknedrchiwaefs Navasttactodttaedr by iee e on ot e , its b of rassw ends, w'b to the ta. was found afterwards to hay belonged This mass of me 1 to a force pump. Its weight was sufficient td keep the body under water, despite of the buoyancy consequent on de composition, and the remains would doubtless have re mained much longer submerged and undiscovered had it not been for the circumstance of the canal being dragged. for the missing child. The body of the deceased ap peared to be that of a man about 27 years old and five feet seven inches in height, wearing short dark whiskers and dark hair. The clothes on the body comprised a black cloth frock coat with outside flaps at the hips, but without pockets, the cDllar and breast bound with black silk and black silk lining. The vest was of dark brown tweed, also bound with black silk. The trousers were of the kind called " shepherd's plaid." The shirt was of fine linen, and round the neck was a black silk scarf. A pair of fashionably made Wellington boots were on the feet. The body was conveyed to St. George's Cemetery, Whitworth-road, where it remains in charge of the police, awaiting the coroner's inquest, which will be held this day. It is feared that the deceased encountered some parties who had been committing a robbery, and that he met with foul play at their hands. The piece of brass which was used to sink the body is thought to have been part of the plunder. Others are led to believe that it was a ease of suicide, inasmuch as the sum of ss. 90. and abunch of keys were found in the pockets. The detective police are actively engaged in making inquiries for the purpose of ascertaining the identity of the deceased. The body of the little girl, Mary Gartland, was taken out of the canal, and was conveyed to the house of her afflicted parents, where =inquest will be held this day.
