CITY, Two o'CLocx. The efflux of gold from the Bank of England continues active, about £96,000 having been ap - propriated yesterday ; and during the period em braced in the weekly return, completed yesterday for publication in the Gazette to-morrow, the total quantity withdrawn has represented about £350,000. Some anxiety, therefore, has been created in monetary circles by the probability of a further advance in the minimum—viz , to 31 per cent. Greater caution has been evinced by bankers and brokers, who are now disposed to demand higher terms for the negotiation of long-dated bills, although there is a good supply of capital, and the inquiry is still comparatively moderate. The Peninsular and Oriental steamer Euxine, Which leaves to-morrow, - will take £14,570 in gold to Alexandria, and £144,650 in gold, and £296,680 in silver to Bombay, making a total of £455,900, the whole of which is on private account. At the foithooming meeting of the Electric and International Telegraph Company, a dividend for the half-year will be proposed at the rate of 7 per cent. per annum. In the Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday a rather large amount of business was transacted, and prices were firm. The sales were 12,000 bales. The Railway Share market closed with more ani mation, and quotations tend upwards. There is a steady demand for money at previous rates, the Bank directors not having found it neces sary at their meeting to-day to make any further alteration in the terms of discount. The English Stock Market, although quiet, con tinues steady with an upward tendency. The deci sion of the Bank Court not to make a further ad- Vance has had a favourable effect, and Consols have been firmer in consequence, the quotations being 94f 1 for money, and 941 y for the account; The New Threes are firmer at 944 951; the Reduced are steady at 991 95 ; India New Loan Stock re- Maims at 1031 104 ; ditto 5 per Cent. Enfaeed Paper is heavy; ditto 51 per Cent. ditto has improved to 1051 '; and the Debentures aro 981 1. In the Foreign Market business continues mode rately active and prices are firmer.

DEPUTATION TO LORD JOHN RUSSELL (THIS DAY.) This morning a deputation from the city attended at the Foreign-office for the purpose of presenting , to Lord J. Russell a petition, signed by 10,000 in habitants, on the subject of Reform in Parliament. There were present—Col. Sykes, M.P., Mr. Roupel!, M.P., Mr. J. Caird, M.P., Mr. Whalley, M.P., Mr. Heywood (formerly M.P. for North Lan cashire), Mr. Samuel Morley, Mr. Whitehurst, Mr. White (formerly M.P. for Plymouth), Messrs. Baring, Mr. Allan, Mr. R. Higgins, Mr. Heywood. Mr. R. N Philipps, (Common Councilman), Mr. Donald Nicoll, Mr. W. Connell (Common Council man), Mr. Hodson, and other gentlemen. When they assembled his lordship's private secretary entered the room, and stated that Lord John Russell was confined to his room by a severe cold, and that he would either receive them on a future day, or at once if they would proceed to his house in Chesham-place. The members of the deputation determined upon waiting upon his lordship at once, and repaired in a body to Claeslaam-place, where his lordship gave them a very courteous reception, and expressed his regret that be had occasioned them so much trouble. The following petition was then read to his - lordship : TO THB HONOURABLE THE COMMONS OT GREAT BRITAIN AND IRELAND IN PARLIAMENT ASSEMBLED. The humble Petition of the imillrsigned Inhabitants of the City of London, Sheweth,—That your Petitioners accept with satisfac tion the assurance of her Majesty's Ministers that they will be prepared, in the ensuing session of Parliament, to introduce a real and honest measure for the amendment of the laws which relate to the representation of the people. That, in the judgment of your Petittoners, no measure will be regarded as a settlement which does not include a large extension of the suffrage both in counties and in boroughs; an equitable redistribution of seats in proportion to the' population and property of the constituencies ; an assimilation of electoral laws for England, Scotland, and Ireland; and such protection to to the voter, by means of ballot, as may arrest that corruption and intimidation which have been so fearfully prevalent in the late election, and which threaten to undermine the political institutions of the country. In the opinion of your petitioners, these offences should be visited with more severe and disgraceful punishments, and conviction be rendered more summary and more easily attainable than under the present Corrupt Practices Pre vention Act. Your petitioners therefore pray your honourable House speedily to pass such a measure into law. And your petitioners will over pray. - - - - Mr. S. MORLEY explained at some length the circumstances under which the petition had been signed so extensively in the City of London, where there was an eager desire for a wide and substantial measure of reform. He then went over the various points of the petition. Lord JOHN RUSSELL said that as a representa tive of the City of London in the House of Com mons, he would gladly take charge of the petition, and he quite agreed with the petitioners, that the time had arrived when a substantial measure of Reform should be submitted for the consideration of Parliament. He had, in conjunction with other members of the Cabi net prepared a measure which he trusted would be satisfactory to the country at large. It was his intention to state the details of this measure to the House of Commons on the 20th of February, and the public would have ample means of consi dering and discussing it prior 0 its second reading. At present it would obviously be premature to state more with regard to it. After some further conversation the deputation thanked the noble lord for the courteous reception he had given them, and retired. POLICE INTELLIGENCE -(THIS DA Y.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. CURIOUS ASSAULT AT "BEN CAUNT'S."—Mr. John Gill, of 11, Everett-street, Russell-square, appeared to an swer a summons, at the instance of Mr. Albert Garrod, of Eaton-place, for an assault under the following circum stances : Mr. Humphreys, junior, appeared for the complainant and Mr. Edward Lewis, of Great Marlborough-street, for the defendant. The evidence of the complainant, which was rather lengthy, was to the following effect :—Oa the 16th Dec., between one and two in the afternoon, the complainant went into the house of Mr. Caunt, the Coach and Horses, St. Martin's-lane, and continued drinking champagne and other things till between eight and nine, when Mr.tCaunt in troduced the defendant to him as Mr. Thompson, a cab pro prietor. They then commenced playing at cribbage, at first for small stakes, and afterwards increasing them till the last played for was 120 a side. They continued drinking cham pagne, and about twelve the complainant said he felt very ill, as if he had been drugged, and was obliged to leave the room for a few minutes, and when he returned an alterca tion took place, the complainant saying he was too ill to continue the game, and having during the game seen some thing to induce him to believe he had been cheated, he put his back against the door of the room and refused to allow the defendant to leave until he called the police. The de fendant then seized the complainant by the throat, an d dragged him from the door and left the house, and that was the - assault complained of. The stakeholder said if he did not finish the game he should hand over the stakes to the defendant, and he did so. He then went to the Vine-street station and saw Inspector Webb, who now proved that he had at the time marks on his face and throat. Mr. Lewis cross-examined the complainant, who said he was in the habit of playing at cards and going to betting houses, and mixing with betting men—that he had been a lawyers's clerk, and had acquired some property, but not by betting. Mr. Lewis addressed the magistrate at some length, and contended that the assault had been committed in the first instanoo by the complainant, who had made a prisoner of the defendant in the room ; and that, had the case been brought before him as a common assault, he was sure it was a case the magistrate would not have sent for trial. Mr. Bingham said he thougiiejuW should decide it, there being a justification pleaded. The defendant was then committed for trial at the next Westminster Sessions, bail in the sum of £lOO being taken. RES FOR 1860. VARY.

The following are some of the credits respecting the army and navy set down in the Budget of 1861 : The effective of the army, like that of 1860, is calculated at 392,000 men and 83,000 horses -65,600 of the men and 15,300 of the horses be ing set down for Algeria. The expenses, however, are 6,600,000 fr. more than in 1860, owing to the au ;mentation of the Garde de Paris, the dearness ' of forage, the increase of salaries below 1,200 fr. (there are 650 persons with such salaries in the central administration), the appointment of three new marshals in the war in Italy, the assimila tion of generals commanding at Lyons to those of Paris as regards allowances for expenses of recep tions, &c. (9,000 fr. to generals of division and 4,000 fr. to generals of brigade), and the esta blishment of artillery schools at Versailles and Grenoble. The total of the budget of the War De partment is 346,058,744 fr., and the principal items composing it are, in round figures— staff, 20,000,000 fr. ; gendarmerie, 30,900,000 fr. ; troops, 184,500,000 fr. ; forage, 29,500,000 fr. ; and engineering material, 17,000,000 fr. The Bud get of the Navy is 124,351,883 fr., which is enly 848,700 fr. more than in 1860. It proposes, among other things, to provide for the protection of the coasts by the establishment of posts in communication with lines of electric telegraph, the said posts to be occupied by 190 men, and to improve the condition of the sailors by adding to their rations on land a hot breakfast, and by increasing the rations on board by a larger allowance of meat and vegetables. No change is made with regard to the fleet, properly so called ; and consequently the sum of 65,000,000 fr., will (as has been the case every year since 1857 and as is to be for ten years to come) be devoted to the expense of transforming sailing vessels into screws, etc. The budget sets down the number of vessels in commission at 152, and the number of men on board them at 26,300. The vessels are to be-8 screw ships of the line, 1 sailing ditto ; 6 screw frigates, 1 paddle wheel, and 2 sailing ditto ; 3 screw cor vettes, 6 paddle wheel, and 5 sailing ditto; 20 screw advice boats, 37 paddle wheel ditto, 6 brigs, 6 screw gunboats, 23 transports, 28 small vessels. In addition to those there are to be 9 vessels, 1 of them a screw frigate, to replace others which may be damaged ;16 armed by way of experiment, 1 of them a screw ship of the line, 7 screw frigates, 3 iron-plated frigates ; 7 vessels disposable (one a ship of the line) ; and 90 in reserve. The budget shows that the officers to be employed at sea are-1 vice admiral, 8 rear•admirals (out of 20), 116 captains (out of 340), 299 lieutenants (out of 650) ; 285 passed midshipmen (disciples) (out of 550). The principal items in the budget are—pay, 41,000,000 fr.; provisions, 12,000,090 fr.; workmen, 16,000,000 fr. ; stores for the fleet 36,000,000 fr. and hydraulic works 12,000,000 fr."

The Day of Small nings. By the Author of " Mary Powell," &c., &c. Arthur, Hall, and Virtue. There is an attraction in the works of this authoress that rivals many more brilliant compositions. In the present instance the story is very simple, being the diary of an invalid lady who lived a solitary life, but who intereqed herself so much in the concerns of her friends that her sad and suffering existence was robbed of its sting, inasmuch as she forget her self in others ; anxiety for them diverted her thoughts from dwelling on her o•:sn pain, and in forming plans for their welfare she enlivened the weariness of her lonely hours. As is written in the motto on the title-page— " Young and old all brought their troubles, Small and great, for me to hear. I have often blessed my sorrows, That made other's griefs so near." The various characters who are recorded in Mrs. Cheerlove's diary aptly represent the chances and changes of life. The prosperous Mrs. Pevensey, who seemed so impervious to trouble and so active in the discharge of her manifold duties, in pursuing a plan of pleasure, meets with a fearful accident, and is fur life a helpless cripple. Arbell, her daughter, who at first seems in the background and neglected by her juvenile mother and arrogant governess, suddenly becomes the chief person in the household. Harry Prout, the enthusiastic young man, was a would-be poet, but the sudden death of his father, and consequent destitution of the family, forced him to turn his attention to sober prose, and the change was beneficial to him. Miss Burt is a good specimen of that odious class who go about from house to house, discontenting all near them ; her presence was a real infliction to one whose nerves were sensitive, like Mrs. Cheerlove, and her presence was a great, trial in the establishment. The domestic storms caused by the conduct of Phillis are amusingly told, and the trick practised upon her by Harry Prout, in dressing up as a servant to take her place, was very efficient in giving her a wholesome warning. The simple occurrences here recorded gradually work out important changes in the life of those who appear before us, and the quiet manner in which they are told makes them the more impres sive. This is a most pleasing little book i❑ its way, and will not be found unworthy of its more strik ing predecessors. The Life of Schleiernzacher. Translated from the German by Frederica Rowan. 2 vols. Smith and Elder. The name of Schleiremacher is less known in this country than in his own ; nevertheless it is one that deserves to be remembered among us as well as in the Fatherland. The opening passage of the translator's introduction to the volumes before us will best show the estimation in which he was held among his own people— "On the 15th February, 1834, a funeral procession was seen moving through the streets of Berlin, the like of which that capital had rarely before witnessed. The coffin, covered with a black pall and simply decorated with a large copy of the Bible, was borne on the shoulders of twelve students of the University, thirty-six of the most robust of whom had volunteered to perform, alternately, this pious service. After these came a train of mourners on foot, extending upwards of a mile in length, and these were followed by one hundred mourning coaches, headed by the equipages of the King and the Crown Prince. Along the wh o l e line tra versed by the procession, dense crowds of sympathising spectators had gathered, while in the cemetery, beyond the gates of the city, similar crowds were assembled ; and on every countenance might be read the fact, that the indivi dual borne to the grave, was one of those representative men in whom are concentrated, as it were, in a focus, the moral and intellectual life of the nation and the period to which they belong, and who become, in consequence, centres of new light and diffusers of new and vivifying warmth. Such was, indeed, the case ; for it was Friedrich Ernst Schleier • masher, whom, by a spontaneous movement, the capital of Proteetant Germany was thus honouring, in death. " During a quarter of a century Schleierinacher had exer cised in that city the double function of a teacher in the university and in the church ; and approving himself a fear less citizen in times of imminent peril, and an inspired preacher during a period of great religious indifference, he had, at a most critical juncture in the history of Prussia, contributed more than any other individual to keep alive, in all classes, the pride of nationality and the love of inde pendence, and to awaken religious earnestness and quicken ing moral sentiments. Ever ready to sacrifice himself in the interest not only of his country but of the whole German nation, then bending under the yoke of France, his example had acted contagiously, in Berlin more especially, where his influence was supreme, and had sustained in the people that determination to liberate themselves when an opportu nity offered, which was ultimately so nobly carried out." Five and twenty years have passed since then, and though the preacher's name and works are still in high repute, his admirers have asked in vain for the biography, which from their knowledge of his per sonal influence they had so ardently desired. At length the work before us, founded on his own autobiography and letters was brought before the public. We do not wonder at the cordial reception it has met with in Germany. Among those inti mately acquainted with his works, his character and his fame, we can readily imagine that it has, as the translator observes, made Schleiermacher once more a living presence. For an English public less warmly interested in the subject, the work is almost too diffuse and lengthy, butit would perhaps have been difficult to have compressed it greatly without interfering with its struc ture and with the full length portrait of its subject's life and character which it presents to us. Like many another bold and liberal advocate of great principles, Schleiermacher had much to contend against. In matters of church government and other polemical questions he met with vehement opposition. lie took an active part in the proposed reform of the Prussian Church, and the Union of the Lutheran and Reformed Churches was one of his favourite projects. He strongly objected to the proposal which was spoken of in influential quarters, to make subscription in the Evangelical Church compulsory, and in the minor questions of reforming the liturgy and hymn-book he also took a prominent part. These points, as is often the case, though of little vital importance. caused as much excitement and dissension as the greater questions, and the enmities resulting from their discussion caused Schleiermacher much annoy ance. We are told, however, that neither these vexations or far greater troubles could disturb the equanimity he drew from a deeper source. After the war of liberation, when the reaction set in, Schleiermacher was denounced to the King, being looked on with suspicion in high circles, " like most of the men who had infused into the nation the spirit which had driven the foreigner out of the land, but which was now to be quelled, lest it might insist with too much vigour on the fulfilment of the promises made by the Sovereign in the hour of need." Ho remained for some time under apprehen sions that he might lose his professorship at the uni versity. These anticipations were, however, ground less, as in 1831 his services to the constitution were officially recognised by the bestowal of the order of the Red Eagle. It was during the struggle for national existence that Schleiermacher most dis tinguished himself. He took an active part in all political associations formed for the purpose of freeing the country from French despotism, and his sermons, full of eloquence and fervour, stirred the hearts of the people and encouraged them for the struggle. The description of one of his ser mons, addressed to the volunteers of Berlin in 1813 when they were about to start on their expedi tion, shows the wonderful power with which he preached, and the high and noble spirit with which he sent them on their mission. " We, also, the preachers of peace," he says is one of his letters, " if we have not all seized the sword, have at least had recourse to the telling battery of words, and have from the holy altar called the people to battle, to share in the life and death struggle." The letters, which occupy the greater portion of these volumes, do credit to their author's head and heart, and show him to have been as fervent in affection and as admirable in private life as ho was eminent for his scientific attainments and distin guished for the vigour and eloquence of his preach ing. In early life he seems to have been slightly imbued with the tinge of the prevailing mysticism and dangerous sentimentality of his time; but in maturer years his strong moral perception and com mon sense regained the ascendency, and emanci pated him from its influence. The reader will find much to interest and gratify him in the perusal of this life of a good and great man. The Volunteer Rifleman and the R ifle. By John Boucher. W. 0. Mitchell. To the scientific, or, rather, would-be scientific reader, this volume will prove acceptable ; and cer tainly the veriest tyro cannot complain of a lack of minuteness of detail, whether in dynamics, pneumatics, or chemistry. The author gravely in forms us in his opening chapter, that "A bullet, on leaving the muzzle of any firearm, makes a passage through the air more or less short before it reaches the mark." With such very particular and obvious information to commence with, the reader has little cause to fear being left in the dark on more abstruse subjects. But, apart from this, there is useful in formotion to be gathered fr om the book ; and i t is a relief, after the number of p roductions which have emanated from the pen s of "Smith, Jo nes, and Robinson" on the volun teer q uestion, to meet with a work which goes deeper into the subject than drill and uniform; upon the latter of which the author makes the following remarks The question of uniform and g enera l equipment is, i n fin s o f far more i mportance than may appear at f i rst sig h t which has abolished epa u l e tt es an d gorgets, w hi c h laughs at the Lord Mayor's carriage, and has substituted fact, of age plain tunics for the gorgeously embroidered doublets which were formerly worn by the Warders in the Tower. There is in many quarters, 1 admit, a well-founded objection to unnecessary sumptuary display, to gingerbread finery and party coloured masquerading when practical duties have to be performed ; but this love for plainness and sobriety of attire may be carried too far, and is dangerously apt to de generate into Quakerif-m. To tell the truth, this rifle shoot ing is bat an appreutice , hip to the great trade of man kill ing, and that is a craft. requiring som a little dressing- to dis guise its abstract horror. Slaughter, or its simulation, without sonic moderate amount of drumming and trumpet itig, must be repugnant and abhorrent to every heart in which glows a spark of humanity ; and if the very simplest and most convenient costume that oxisfs were adopted by :soldiers, our Guards would go foi th to battle in the blue frocks of butchers, and with their sleeves tucked up to their elbows. Let there, then, in the name of common sense, be no pea cock finery, but let us have a sufficient amount of military smartness and military gaiety in the costume. We don't want legions dressed in the fantastic array of the American. Volunteers, the " Boston Tigers," the " Syracuse Scor pions," or the " Mississippi Fire-eaters ;" but we may well shudder at the notion of having sw arms of English itifle men, dressed in hodden grey and wide-awake hats, half convict, half plough-boy looking. It is easy to combine taste and elegance with practical utility, A general key note of colonr, a margin of appearance, mustbe ‘istahlished, and minor detail and ornamontation may be safely left to the good taste of those to whom the Lords- Lieutenant of Counties may be pleased to confide the training and drill ing of our volunteers. The Rifle Volunteer will find information on the range of projectiles, and other observations, which, if properly attended to, may be of service to him. The Old Coal pit ; or, The Adrentures of Richard Boothby in Search of his Ottn Way. A Story for Boys. By E. J. May, author of " Louis School Days," &c. John W. Parker. This is a very superior work, and can hardly fail to achieve its object, that of setting before young boys, in strong characters, the danger of such head strong actions as are here spoken of. Man_y a boy may take warning fr om th e sa d l i fe of Richard Boothby, who ended, as is generally the case, in imposing upon himself far more severe re strictions, and exposing himself to more pain ful ordeals than could have awaited him un der any circumstances had he followed the orders of his parents, and those set in authority over him. He was naturally of a good disposition, which rendered his many derelictions from duty and subsequent calamities all the more distressing. Ile was, however, of that irritating carelessness of character that nothing seems ever to affect in a serious and lasting manner. The extraordinary adventures he met with in Italy may appear to some exaggerated; but such occurrences are by no means improbable in the imperfect state of the law abroad, and if such is not the danger to be apprehended at }lame, those who make enemies by inconsiderate trifling with the feelings of others, as Richard did to Silvio, will most assuredly reap a bitter harvest. When he had thrown away all his opportunities, and consigned himself to a very different position to the one originally intended for him, and which would have been more consonant with his tastes, in reality; too late did he recarthe:many, many means of grace he had cast aside. The gentle exhortations of his sister which he had so disregarded when uttered, bat which when she had been laid in the dust rose up in his memory as the beacon lights which had warned him of destruction, and which he had, in the blindness of his infatuation and the wilfulness of his pride, neglected at the time when they would have been of such signal service to him. We commend this little volume to the earnest attention of the young as an excellent lesson to their inexperienced minds, and an able illustra tion of the world's ways, in which they will find a fair picture of the trials that await the self-suffi cient and overbearing when they leave their school days to enter on the battle-fields of life. It was truly said of Richard, " Unstable as water thou shalt not excel ;" and his boyhood of folly, which refused the teaching of wisdom, was fol lowed by a youth of strife and sufferings, to result in a lifetime of bitter regrets. THE EMPEROR OF TEE FRENCII AND TILE POPE. (From the Liverpool Daily Post.) We arc in a condition to affirm that the follow ing statement is true : The Emperor of the French has written a second letter to the Pope. It was brief, but emphatic. His Majesty is willing and anxious to remain, as hitherto, " the eldest son of the Church," and con tinue deferential to the Holy Father in all things ; but if his Holiness oppose the late propositions, let him remember Henry the Eighth' The Pope having called for the withdrawal of the French troops from Rome, the Emperor in the same letter says that they shall be withdrawn if his Holiness persists ; but that he (the Emperor) will cause a month's notice to be given to all strangers resident in the Eternal City. 11115 DA Y'S MARKETS.
