MONEY MARKET AND CITY NEWS. CITY, Two O'CLOCK. There has not been much activity in - the markets for foreign and colonial produce during the last few days. At the public sales of tea prices opened at an advance of about 2d. per lb., but a decline of id. to ld. per lb. has since taken place. Sugars have been 'dealt in to a fair extent, at about former quotations. Coffee has remained inactive, and in rice and spices the operations have been on a very moderate scale. There have been moderate inquiries for saltpetre, but no sales of importance have been effected. In tallow the dealings have been limited, and prices continue firm for both present and for ward delivery. In the Liverpool cotton market yesterday a fair amount of business was transacted, but American descriptions were rather lower. The sales were estimated at about 10,000 bales. About £40,000 in gold, being a portion of the late Australian arrivals, was sent into the Bank of England yesterday. Notice has been given of the meetings of the London and Westminster Bank, and of the Bank of London, for the purpose of declaring a dividend, &c. The Tyne has arrived at Lisbon from the Brazils en route to this country with £27,000 in specie. There is an active demand for money at full rates. The inquiries at the Bank are numerous, and an extensive business is reported in the general market. At the meeting of the Australian Royal Mail Steam Navigation Company a division ofthe assets amount ing to ss. 9d. per share, after reserving a small sum for probable contingencies, was agreed to, a dissolu tion of the company having been determined upon by the shareholders. The market for Public Securities closed yester day with a very heavy appearance, but a few purchases having been effected the tendency of prices is rather more favourable. Consols are now quoted 931 1, but very little business, real or speculative, has been negotiated. The New Three per Cents, and the Reduced are steady at 931; India Debentures at 961; and the Bonds at 12s. to 7s. dis. ; and Exchequer Bills at par 4s. prem., but Bank Stock has improved to 229 and 2301.

JAMES'S THEATRE.—We understand that the management has been obliged to postpone the representa tion of " Les Noces de Cleopatre " from this evening till to-morrow. The tickets for to-night will be available for to-morrow. SIGH PRICE OF PROVISIONS.—The English papers teem with complaints of the high price of provisions. I dont' know exactly what London prices may be just now, but I rather think those of Paris will beat them hollow. My butcher—not by any means one of the dearest—tells me this morning that he is charging his customers the fol lowing prices for meat of beef, 2s. the lb. (1) rum p steaks (and fearfully tough they are), ls. 2d. ; in ferior beef for making soup (bone included), 9d. • ordinary joints of veal and mutton are ll d, the lb.—Letter from Paris. ___ MAN KILLED IN A PUGILISTIC ENCOUNTER.— On. Monday morning a pugilistic encounter took place near Erakine Ferry, on the Clyde. The combatants were Irish men, and came from the Saltmarket of Glasgow. Every thh ig was carried on according to the most inviolate rules of the prize ring. Round followed after round, the com batants being cheered on by their respective supporters nut it a full hour passed on, at the end of which time Reid, mutilated and disfigured by the blows of his opponent, fell to the ground completely exhausted and gave in. His friends carried him (for he was totally unable to walk) to the ban at the ferry, where, from the mortal injuries he Bus t aine d during the fight, W 3 died in the course of a few hours. Ichlan is a young man of about 22 years of age, and Reid was somewhat younger, Death was occasioned byre blow received by deceased on the temples. The body was cony eyed to Glasgow on Tuesday. The police are still on the look-out for M'Lachlan, who has absconded. Deceased, who Baas a powerful man, fought successfully a well-known pugilist, named Mooney, near Glasgow, about two months ago,- —.Edinburgh Courant. - - Iv; Is said to be in contemplation to have a grand review of the volunteers in Scotland in the King's-park, Stir Eng:, by the Queen, on her journey to the north in August.

His Honour the Master of the Rolls said—ln this case the question is, what is the construction to be put on the words of the codicil set out on the Sth page of the bills, which state—" I direct my executors to pay out of my per sonal estate the exact sum of £5OO a-piece to each child that may be born of either of the children of either of my brothers, lawfully begotten, to be paid to each of them on his or her attaining the age of 21 years without the benefit of survivorship. He had previously given a legacy to five of that class. His Honour considered that there should be a subdivision of this class--that as there were five named in the codicil and seven not named, those children alive at the date of the codicil and death of the testator (who died on the same day as the date of the codicil) excluded those children who were born afterwards. This point was de cided by Sir John Leech in the case of Storey, 7 Milne's Reports ; and by Vice-Chancellor Kindersley, in the case of Earley, 2d vol. Colier's Reports; and 14 Beaven's Re 301 ports. His Honour decreed accordingly, with costs of all parties out of the estate. SECONDARrES' COURT. (Before Mr, Potter and a Jury.) BATSON V. BARNES-BREACH OF PROMISE OF MARRIAGE AND SEDUCTION-DAMAGES L2OO. This was a writ of inquiry to assess the damages, laid at £l,OOO, in a breach of promise of marriage, defendant hav ing suffered judgment to go by default. Mr. Tapping, instructed by Messrs. Deacon and Taylor, for the plaintiff, said his client was a milliner, living with her father at Sawtry, in Huntingdonshire, and defendant was a coal dealer of the same place, and had a depot for coals at the station of the railway which runs through Huntingdon. The parties in this suit had known each other for years, and indeed had lived next door to each other. Alter this long acquaintance, when the young lady became attractive defendant made a formal offer of marriage and was accepted as her husband in futuro. Somo short time after wards his attentions began to slacken, and plaintiff's father observed this, and that his daughter was in the family way. He questioned her, and she, with many tears, admitted that defendant had seduced her. Mr. Batson had an interview with the defendant, and pointed out to him that the plain tiff's mother was dead, and that plaintiff acted as mother to her younger sisters, to whom her example might be ex tremely hurtful. Defendant then repeated his promise to marry, but he had failed to fulfil his promise, and had since married another woman. Mr. Batson said he was a tailor, and the plaintiff was his eldest child. When witness spoke to defendant about the sta'e of his daughter, who was present and cried, defen dant said he must marry her. He promised to come in in the evening, but did not. He had since married another girl, He was 30 years of age, and plaintiff 22 now. De fendant was doing very well in the coal trade, and hiei father possessed landed property. A child had been born in November, 1859, which had since died. The learned Secondary then summed up, and said this was one of the sad eases upon which juries had to decide, and the jury found for the plaintiff, damages £2OO. The plaintiff was in Court, and Mr. Tapping was about to call her, but the learned Secondary said the father's evi dence would be sufficient. POLICE INTELLIGEN CE-( THIS DAI .) BOW. STREET. AN UNGRATEFUL THIEF.— Ann Smith was charged with stealing a pair of boots. The prosocutrix stated that last night the prisoner ap plied at a coffee shop, in the neighbourhood, for a bed, with which she could not be accommodated, and as she (witness) was anxious to prevent her walking the streets all night, as prisoner said she must, she offered her a part of the bed she, in conjunction with another female, had engaged. The offer was accepted, but on waking this morning she found the prisoner had stolen her boots, and had succeeded in obtaining a shilling from her friend. The robbery was made known to the police, and the prisoner was appre hended ; on her person was found a purse with 10s. in it. Mr. Jardine said he regretted he could not detain the price of the boots the poor girl had lost by her kindness, but he had no such power. He would, however, sentence the prisoner to three months' hat d labour. WATCH ROBBERT.—A young man, named Phillips, was chargsd with stealing a watch on the day of the Volunteer Review, from the person of a lady who had just arrived from Liverpool. The offence was clearly proved. As the prisoner had been previously in prison, and had only returned a few days from transportation, he was remanded in order to obtain copies of the former convic tions. PICKING POCKETS IN THE LOWTHER ARCADE.—A German female named Joezf was charged with picking pockets in the Lowther Arcade. From the evidence it appeared that the prisoner went up to the front of one of the toy shops and there took her sta tion near a lady who had a child in her arms. She then stooped as if about to examine some of the articles exposed for sale, but she was observed to put her hand in the lady's pocket and withdraw a purse. The prizonor plcodcd hard to have the case summarily disposed of on account of her two young children, which she had locked up in her room in Whaechapel before she committed the robbery. A policeman, by direction of the magistrate, went to the woman's residence and there found the two children as de scribed. Mr. Jardine thought the prisoner was a practised thief, and the manner.in which she had stolen the purse proved the fact; he ought to commit her for trial. The prisoner urged the magistrate to settle the case on account of the children. The magistrate said it was too late to make that excuse; but, instead of sending her for 4ial, he should sentence her to four months' imprisonment with hard labour. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. CAUTION TO LADIES—PICKPOCKETS IN REGENT-STREET. —Susan M'Clarky, Michael Birmingham, Itosina Dalton, and Edward Baines were charged before Mr. Beadon with attempting to pick pockets in Regent-street. Sergeant Henry Joy, 9 C, said that on the previous after. noon he was at the corner of Beak-street, Regont••street, at a jewellers' shop standing up out of the rain, when he saw the prisoner Dalton go up to the side of a lady, who was also sheltering herself, and put her hand into her pocket, the prisoner M'Clarky being behind Dalton all the time. Dalton then tried the pocket a second time, and they both left the doorway and joined the male prisoners. They ben all crossed the road, and he (Joy) having watched the prisoners for a short time, saw Dalton put her hand into another lady's pocket, who was also standing up for shelter from the rain. He then followed them, and saw them go up to eight or nine different doorways, where persons were collected togethcr, and had no doubt the whole of them were acting together, the men being in waiting for what ever booty might be received. He got assistance, and they were taken to the station. M'Clarky and Dalton refusing their address, he wished for a remand. Remanded. THIS DAY'S MARKETS. CORN EXCHANGE. We had only a moderate show of samples of English wheat in to-day's market. Owing to the continuance of showery weather factors generally were firm in their de mands, but for the most part millers purchased cautiously at e Is to 2s per qr. beneath last week's quotations. There was only a limited inquiry for foreign wheat ; nevertheless, compared with Monday, no change took place in prices. The fresh imports are 12,740 qrs. Floating cargoes of grain supported previous currencies. Barley, both English and foreign, moved off slowly, yet the currencies were supported. Fine malt sold steadily, other kinds slowly, at late rates. We were heavily supplied with oats, which moved off slowly on easier terms. Beans and peas were steady in prico, but flour was a dull inquiry. ARRIVALS THIS WEEK. Wheat. Barley. Malt. Oats. Flour.

He found by a report then before him that Trotman's anchor was an improvement upon Procter's, but both were on the same principle which had been condemned by the majority on board ship. According to the opinions of nautical men there was gi eat uncertainty about anchors on Trotman's principle holding tile ground, and such being the case' he thought it a very great objection. The preceding Board of Admiralty were as much to blame as the present, if blame was to rest anywhere, for the anchor referred to not being more generally used.. He had been informed that during some very severe weather the whole of the ships having the Admiralty anchor rode out in safety, not one having what was technically termed " dragged." The merchant service had not fared so well, and he believed they generally adopted Trotman's anchor. He would not say that in the gale he referred to that the whole of the merchantmen that broke away adopted Trotman's anchor; that he could not be certain about. It seemed to be the plan of all inventors now to convince the different members of the other house to advocate their inventions, and thus the House of Commons was made a large advertising van. He had himself asked many naval men their opinion of Trotman's anchor, and they said it was a very good one to put away in the hold, as it took up so little room—(laughter)—but that, according to his view, was not exactly the use for which anchors were intended, The late Board of Ad miralty refused to patronise - the anchor of Mr. Trotman because the naval profession did not think very highly of it. He thought it was a question that ought to be left to the naval profession, and ho felt satisfied that a fair trial would be given to Trotman's anchor. The Earl of HARDWICKE thought the answer of the noble duke unsatisfactory. He talked about Trotman's anchor receiving' a fair trial, but they had been already tried, and that most extensively, and at great cost, and had come out supreme. The nobie duke did not seem to think very highly of Mr. Trotman's invention, but he put it to him if it was right, in his own opinion, the safety of the Queen of England ought to be left to an unsafe anchor. If the anchor of the Royal yacht was such as the noble duke seemed to think, he did hope that it would be instantly removed from the vessel and one of the Admiralty pattern supplied. He did not think Captain Denman was of the same opinion as the noble duke opposite. The subject then dropped. [LRY'T SITTING.] HOUSE OF COMMONS.—(Tnis DAY.)

(From the _Liverpool Albion.) The steamer Ganges, a shallow - vessel belonging to the Oriental Inland Steam Company, and in tended for the navigation of the rivers of the East, recently left the Mersey to proceed to India under sail. This vessel, which attracted considerable at tention from her unusual appearmace, has shown herself to be a safe and excellent seaboat. The fol lowing account, given by the captain, of the be haviour of the vessel in a heavy gale which she en countered immediately after leaving port, will be read with interest, as it shows the power of shallow vessels, when properly constructed, to contend with a heavy sea without injury lam very much pleased indeed to tell you that our noble little craft is a first-rate seaboat. I was rather glad we had the gale—it gave us all confidence in her. When it began the.pea hit hard abaft the sponson, so I set all fore-and-aft sail, and to the surprise of all -of us she never took a drop of water there, and the weather sponson dried up. The Teazer made far worse weather of it than ourselves. lam glad we came in here, as the White Star put iu this morning, hav ing very bad weather indeed down Channel. I shall send an account to the directors, and tell them what I think of her. She is the most buoyant vessel I was ever in, and has the least motion.' __-- - GEMSTONE'S EYE SNUFF.—A certificate proving the virtues of this snuff, from Dr. Ure, M.D., F.R.S., 25, Keppel-street, Russell-square :—" I hereby certify that the eye snuff invented and manufactured by Mr. Wm.

The Earl of HARDWICKE called attention to the answer that had been given in another place with respect to Trotman's anchor. The question was one of great importanee especially to the navy, and consequently to the nation, and the inquiry to which he alluded was whether or not Trotman's anchors were not in general use in the Royal Navy. The answer given to that ques tion was that they were not, in consequence of their being generally objected to by the profes sion. He was there to give a most distinct denial to that statement. The trials that had taken place proved that Trotman's anchors instead of being the worst were the very best, and this was borne out, in his opinion, by the fact that her Majesty's yacht, the Victoria and Albert, carried it. He had before him the opinion of a gentleman who had been appointed to test the capabilities of a great number of anchors, and in their opinion Trotman's was the best and the Admiralty one was the very worst. The Admiralty anchor broke at a strain of 13.17 hundredths, and Trotman's bore 23.30 hundredths. There were also a number of figures attached to the other anchors tested, which he would not trouble the house by repeating, but the sum and substance of the report was that Trotman's anchor was 28 per cent. better than the Admiralty anchor. There had been some confusion with respect to other anchors, but as the experiments that had taken place proved the superiority of Mr. Trotman's invention, he would conclude by asking whether there was any intention on the part of the Admiralty to order any given number of them for the royal navy. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The Lords' amendments to the following bills were con sidered and agreed to :—Abergavenny Improvement; Marchburn, Kelso, and Lauder Road ; Oswestry and Newtown Railway (Additional Capital, &c.). TENURE AND IMPROVEMENT OF LAND (IRELAND) BILL. The house went into committee an this bill and resum'd at clause 27, which was agreed to. Clauses to 3 kinclusive were also agreed to. On clause 32, Mr. LONGFIELD moved an amendment to the effect that leases should not be granted for a less period than three lives or 33 years. The bill proposed to facilitate the mak ing of leases, but it did not give the necessary terms for leases that would be sufficient for the purpose of inducing the tenant to improve the land. He considered that 25 years' possession at least was requisite to remunerate a tenant fur his outlay, and iP leases for a proper time were granted the highest rent would be required and received for land. Mr. DEASY did not see any abjection to the adoption of the amendment, but suggested that it should be moved as a separate clause. Mr. LONGFIELD acceded to the suggestion, and with drew the amendment for the present. The clause was then agreed to, as well as clause 33. Clauses 34 and 35 were then agreed to. On clause 36, Mr. BLAKE moved to add at the end of the clause : " And shallnot be liable to eviction after commbncing such improvements, except for non-payment of rent (unless in the opinion of the chairman the completion of same has been needlessly delayed) until the expiration of the longest period (according to the nature of the improvement) named in clause 25, for agricultural improvements and building leases." After some discussion, the amendment was withdrawn. On clause 37, Mr. MAGUIRE moved the following amendment: — Line 41, leave out all after " and," and insert " if, upon the hearing of the case before the chairman, it shall be proved that the proposed improvements are not necessary, or that they would be prejudicial to the estate, the tenant shall not be entitled to commence such improvements; but in case the chairman shall decide that the proposed improvements are necessary, useful, and beneficial to the estate, the tenant shall be enabled to proceed with the improvements in the same way as if he had received the assent of the owner." The clause as it at present stood gave deadly effect to the absurd apprehensions of a class of landlords who were afraid that the tenant would improve out of the land. He believed that there were classes in Ireland who would not avail themselves of the provisions of this bill, and he proposed to make it compulsory on them to do so. He thought the tenant ought not to be allowed to make improvements that were not beneficial to the land or that were not necessary for agricultural operations. At the same time, however, they should not allow landlords to obstruct necessary improvement. There was a continual stream of emigration from Ireland which it was only the policy to arrest, and if a stimulus were not imparted to the industry of the country misery and disaffection would ine vitably ensue. Mr. POLLARD ITRQTJLIART approved of the amend the appointment of Lieutenant-General Sir Charles Yorke, K.C.8., Military Secretary to his Royal Highness the General Commanding-in-Chief, to be an Ordinary Mem ber of the Military Division of the First Class, or Knights Grand Cross, of the Most Honourable Order of the Bath.

The Right Honourable the Lords of the Committee of Privy Council for Trade and Plantations have received, from the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, a copy of a despatch from her Majesty's Minister at Vienna, enclosing the following declaration of the Imperial Austrian Go. Tornment ; viz.: Whereas Auettian steamers enjoy full liberty of transporting passengers, with their baggage and effects, to the ports of Great Britain and Leland, and of all British possessions, with the sole exception of the coasting trade in those British colonies where a similar exceptiOn' may exist in regard to all foreign flags ; whereas further, the undiminished maintenance of this liberty for the future is assumed also, it isherebydeclared on the side of the Impe rial Austrian Government, by the organ of the undersigned Minister President, and for F oreignAffairs, that in pursuance of an arrangement agreed te, British steamers shall also enjoy the full liberty of transporting passengers, their baggage and effects, between any Austrian and any foreign port, and vice versa, and in such wise with the privileges of the Treaty of Commerce and Navigation of July 3, 1838, and .that for this object on the part of the Imperial Govern ment an exempti n will be made in favour of the British steamers in the application section 16 of the Austrian Postal Law of November 6, 1837, concerning the periodical passenger traffic. __ It is well understood, that if such a periodical line of steamers should be organized on a line which is already carried on, or shall in future be carried on by the Austrian Postal Establishment, a previous understand.. ing upon the principal points of the respective sailing arrangements, that is to say, on the times of departure, shall take place, in the interest of public security and order, as well as in the intere..t itself of the two competing com panies, and for this purpose the projected sailing regula tions of the English undertaking shall be submitted to the Imperial Post Direction of the Austrian harbour in ques tion. - Vienna, June H, 1860.

GRIFFITHS considered there was much mis understanding in reference to the subject,:and opposed the amendment. Mr. DEASY said that this was an amendment of great importance, but would involve the destruction of the measure, and it had proved fatal to the bills introduced by three successive Governments. The present bill as it stood dealt only with tenants from year to year, and if he desired to avail himself of the privilege proposed to be conferred by this amendment, the landlord might oust him as soon as he ' attempted to carry out any improvements which he con sidered not requisite. Mr. MONS ELL said that the bill introduced by Lord Aberdeen's Government failed in regard to this provision solely because it proposed a retrospective action. He denied that landlords would turn out their tenants on the high ways merely because they desired to effect some necessary improvements. Col. DICKSON supported the amendment, and denied that the landlords withheld leases merely because they were afraid that by granting them they would diminish their political power. He contended that landlords generally, were not opposed to granting leases cf fair length, though he admitted there were some classes who entertained different sentiments. He believed that without the adop tion of the amendment, or some similar provision, the bill would be an utter failure, and that its adoption would benefit both landlord and tenant. He suggested, how ever, that for the chairman of quarter sessions the Encum loe'red 'Eiates Coirt should be substitutd. Mr. BUTT said that this was the tenants' part of the bill, the other parts being those of the landlord. This bill was not the result of agitation, but the product of the Devon Commission, under the Govern ment of Lord Derby. He could not see how the Conservative party in the ht.use could oppose the amendment; and he contended that those who offered such opposition were prac tically affirming the proposition that the landlord was en titled to restrict the benefits to be derived from the land which was given for the good of all. (Cries of " Oh, oh.") He repeated that statement, for if they did not allow the necessary improvement in the land, they were com mitting to all intents and purposes what he described. The emigration that was taking place in Ireland was not among the poor and needy but the better class of farmers, who had a little money, but no means of profitable investment in Ireland. Sir J. WALSH opposed the amendment as a gross in fringement of the rights of landlords. A very protracted discussion ensued Es to whether the amendment would operate injuriously on the interests of landlords. The committee divided— For the amendment Against it l4O Majority —92 The amendment was lost, and the clause agreed to. TAX BILLS COMMITTEE.
