I. N., MONEY MARKET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. CITY, Two O'CLOCK. The business on the Stock Exchange to-day was resumed in a desponding tone, the fears entertained for Victor Emmanuel's life have had as bad an effect here as in Paris yesteaday. Consols are now at 931 to 93i for mcney ; ditto, for Account, —; Three per Cent.

American Bonds are dull, and fractionally lower. Erie and Illinois remain steady, the former at the recent recovery. The present prices are :—Five- Twenty Bonds, 83 to 831 ex div. ; ditto (1865), 8 1i to 821 ex div. ; ditto (1867), 831 to 83i ; Ten- Forties, 771} to 77i- ; Erie Railroad Shares, 21 to 21 f ; Illinois, 98k to 99 ; Atlantic and Great Western Consolidated Bonds, 24 to 25; and Deben tures, 26 to 27. Telegraph Shares are steady. Anglo-American Telegraph is quoted at 201 to 201; French Cable, 16 1 to 16k. ; Construction and Maintenance, 311 to 321; and Atlantic Eight per Cents., 21 to 2f. In Colonial Government Securities the transac tions are unimportant, and prices are without Change. Canada Five per Cents. are marked at 95 4 to 95i ; New South Wales Five per Cents., 101 to 102 k ; New Zealand Five per Cents., 91 to 92 ; Queensland Six per Cents., 109 k to 110 ; and Victoria Six per Cents., 114 to 115. The critical state of the King of Italy's health has caused a fall of 1 per cent. in Italian Stock, and the Foreign Market is dull in sympathy, but with out important change. _ _ _ The . rortuguese Loan, which is telegraphed to have been a great success at Lisbon, stands about 1 prem. The Rail way Market is very quiet. The prices are as follows :—Caledonian, 80/ to 81; Great Eastern, 86i to 36-i-:; Great Northern, 107 i to 108/; do. (A), 105. to 1061 ; Great Western, 551 to 551 ;Lan eashire and Yorkshire, 1241 to 1244 ; London and Brighton, 42 to 42/ ; London, Chatham, and Dover, 161 to 16i ; London and North Western, 11 81 to 1191. Not much business is doing in Bank Shares, and the only feature is an improvemen of 10s. in Union of London. A final call of £5 per share has been made by the London Commercial Sale-Rooms Company, to be Paid on the Bth December. The corn trade is dull, and prices have a down- Ward tendency. The efflux of bullion continues. Bar gold to the amount of £61,000 was taken from the Bank on Saturday for export to the Continent. , The Ripon has arrived with £443,318 in Austra lian gold from Alexandria. The Ethiopian has also brought £45,172 from Melbourne. These supplies Will probably be re-exported. The Neue Freie Presse says, with reference to the Position of the money market in Vienna, that a ueeided improvement seems to have manifested itself. The monthly returns of the Bank exhibit a decrease of notes in circulation, and but a slight increase in the discounts. The circulation of notes of the Nieder Osterreichischen Escompte Company has again declined to the extent of 1,068,900fi., and the total is now only 16,220,95611. The notes of the Handels Bank in circulation amount now to " 1 Y 1 ,393,60011, showing a reduction of 581,3001 ; a nd the returns of other deposit banks exhibit a like result.

The admission to the choir was only to be had by tickets, and these were distributed only amongst the aris tocracy. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. Lord Wrottesley Russell, assisted by Lord John Thynne, the sub-Dean.

Disraeli and the Vis countess Beaconsfield. Dr. Cumming, D.D., &c., were amongst those present. The wedding breakfast was given at the resi dence of the Duke of Abercorn, Chesterfield House, South Audley-street, Mayfair. LA TV INTELLIGENCE.—This Day. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. CALCOTT V. SULLIVAN.- THE MANAGER AND SCENE PAINTER. Mr. Ilawkins, Q.C., moved this morning for a rule to show cause why the verdict given for the plaintiff in this case with £lOO damages might not be set aside. The causewas originally tried at Croydon, and was a suit instituted by the plaintiff, the well known scene painter, who was engaged by the de fendant for the New Holborn Theatre. The plain tiff was to paint all the scenes required, but the defendant asserted that the plaintiff neglected his duty, -and therefore he sum marily dismissed him, and the action was brought for the recovery of salary in lieu of notice. At the trial it was al:eged that the scenes provided by the plaintiff for the " School for Scandal" were in a very important part of the play quite absurd' and the defendant told him so, whereupon a quarre ensued, which ended in the defendant dismissing the plaintiff. The plaintiff brought his action for wrong ful dismissal, and the jury gave him £lOO damages, and this verdict, Mr. Hawkins said, was returned against the weight of evidence produced at the trial and also by reason of misdirection on the part of the Lord Chief Baron, before whom the trial took place at Croydon. The Court granted a rule nisi. FENIAN ASSASSINATION IN IRELAND. CORK, Monday. A man named Daniel Callaghan was murdered in Cork last night. He was seen with three other men. Shots were heard, and the three men ran away, Callaghan's body being found with two bullet holes through the head. It is believed that all of them were Fenians, and that Callaghan gave the Brotherhood some cause of offence. BANK OF FRANCE. PARIS, Nov. 3.

THE " NATIONALIST" PRESS. The Dublin' correspondent of a contemporary, sum marising the contents of the Fenian newspapers last week, says :—The "raid" of the Fenians on the tenant right meeting in Limerick is the subject which chiefly occupies the Irish weekly journals. The Irishman repre sents the meaning of the demonstration thus :—" It is not that they (the Fenians) love the cause of the tenant farmers less, but they love that of the prisoners more." In the passionate desire of the nation on this one subject (an Amnesty), it grudges every thought that is given to anything else." The people (the same journal says)" will not tolerate a revival of the trade of agitation under the pre tence of advecating the rights of the tenant-farmer." The Irishman says also, ".We strongly incline to the belief that most Irish farmers are sufficiently shrewd to' see that if fixity of tenure can be got from the English Parliament, not agitation, but Fenianism will get it." "Some men may try to persuade themselves that they aro discharging the debt they owe their country by attending tenant-right meetings, and assisting to send representatives to the foreign Parliament, pledged to support fixity of tenure, but in theii inmost souls they know the only real tenant right movement is Fenianism, and nothing but Fenianism." The Flag of Ireland says that "from Limerick the decree of the Irish nation has gone forth with both manliness and dignity. That decree is, that constitutional agitation is dead and buried for ever—that there can be no peace in the land, and no toleration for English government or its friends until the restoration of the political prisoners." Fenianism (it adds) has "set up a new political gospel. . . . . The occupation of the is agitator for ever gone." This journal likewise attacks Cardinal Cullen for his jubilee pastoral, describing his Eminence as a "propagandist of English misrule in Ireland." The People of Ireland has an essay on "Sepa ration," ending thus : "De Lolme said a hundred years ago, The Irish and the English are as different as if they inhabited, not distinct islands, but distinct planets' Differing as we do so completely, Nature, like the sea which rolls between the two islands, seems to proclaim in unmis takable tones the necessity of separation, and the centuried struggle between the two nations must continue until that separation takes place." The Nation and Weekly News, on the other hand, complain bitterly of the injury done to the tenants' cause by the violent proceedings of the Fenian party at Limerick. " How," the Nation asks, " can any end of theirs (the Fenians) be served by exhibiting the Fenians as a party distinct from and antagonistic to the peasantry of Ireland ?" "The Irish tenants," it continues, "have this week been set upon by their own fellow-countrymen in a manner which must fill the hearts of their landlord oppressors with rejoicing." The Weekly News speaks of the conduct of the Fenians as "a poor requital to the Catholic clergy for the noble part they have taken in the Amnesty move ment." " The tenant-farmers of Ireland are in a cruel case if they are to be butchered by Orangemen in the North and threatened and opposed by Fenians in the South." The Flag specially reminds its readers that the 23rd of November is the anniversary of the Manchester tragedy, and calls for a solemn mass in every chapel in Ireland "for the repose of the souls of the martyrs." This, it says, would be, "in the crisis which has arisen, one glorious and unanimous profession by the Irish nation of faith in the principles for which they offered their lives on an Englisk scaffold." TRADE AND FINANCE. After a long delay arrangements appear to have been effected for carrying out the Roumelian Railway scheme, a scheme that the Porte has long contemplated, and which if completed according to the programme laid down, will be a most important addition to the Turkish Empire. It is well known, however, that Daoud Pasha has invariably failed in his many attempts to raise the necessary funds, and the difficulty of obtaining a loan of £20,000,000 for a State in the financial position of Turkey may be easily imagined. The frequent additions to the public debt and the consequent depreciation of its credit have caused capitalists to be cautious in their financial transactions with the Porte, and additional securities have been demanded. The arrangements made by Daond Pasha with the view of strengthening the credit offered, are worthy of great praise, and will probably have the effect of finally floating a somewhat difficult loan in the market. The entire extent of the contemplated not work, consisting of a main line from Constantinople to Brod, on the Save, where it is intended to join the Croatian Railways, with branches to Varna, Enos, and Salonica, will be about 1,800 to 2,000 kilometres, and the cost of con struction being estimated at £lO,OOO per kilometre, the entire capital required will be £20,000,000. In view of the difficulties of raising so large a sum the Porte has granted the concession to a company which undertakes to construct the lines, while a second company will be formed for the purpose of taking over the lines as they are completed, of providing the rolling stock, and of working the sections asthey become available for traffic. By these arrangements it is believed that greater efficiency and rapidity of construction will be attained, and greater security offered to investers for the right application of the capital. The Government undertakes to make an annual paymment of 14,000 f. per kilometre to the company holding the concession; and as each section is completed, it will be handed over to the second, or work ing, eompany, and this latter also guarantees the former a further annual sum of B,ooof. per kilometre, and will supply the rolling stock at its own expense. In order to raise the necessary capital, the 14,000 f. granted by the Government will be capitalised at the rate of 11 per cent., while the B,ooof. guaranteed by the working company will be capitalised at 7i per cent. This will produce, it is said, a net capital per kilometre of 267,000 f., and the fact of the guarantee of the company of B,ooof. per kilometre being capitalised at the rate of 7i per cent. against 11 per cent. on the Government grant, effects an immediate saving of upwards of 7,000 f. per kilometre per annum. A great advantage is, therefore, secured by the formation of this second company, for not only does it , effect a considerable saving of capital, but it goes on to ensure an efficient construction of the works as it has a money interest in seeing that the lines are thoroughly made, and are in complete working order. The control of the whole system will be in the hands of a private company, whose interests will induce it to extort from the constructors everything necessary for its future safe and economical working. There are many stipula tions in the concession and in the articles of association which shew that the projectors have taken every precau tion against failure. It was very evident, on the promulgation of the Mol davian Railway scheme, that Turkey would soon bo drawn into the current, and would bo unable to resist the march of improvement. The new railway system, however, has a greater importance than at first sight appears, and will probably exercise no little influence upon our commer cial relations with Central Europe and the south of Russia. The railway itself has every chance of success, although as it will open up a new country to which this means of transit will be entirely novel, it will have to create the traffic necessary for its maintenance. Experience chews us, however, that there is little to fear on this score, and in the case of a country so well situated as Turkey, from a geographical point of view, the success of the scheme may be con sidered as certain. We shall find, in the course of a short time, a new source of grain supply opened to our use and one that will probably be a liberal one. The difficulty of getting the produce to the sea coast has prevented agricul turists in the interior of the country from entering into com petition with more favourably situated opponents except in extraordinary seasons, and the new lines will supply a great want that has been long felt in this respect. In addition to this the journey to Constantinop7o will be greatly shortened, and that capital will be readily accessible from every part of Europe. The proposed system greatly reduces the distance between England and India, and gives a locus stundi to such schemes as the Euphrates Valley Railway, which have long been regarded as impracticable. No one can look at the map without being struck by the gradual and almost insensible manner in which India is being brought nearer to us, and it begins to be evident that, notwithstanding the difficulties attending their construction, a system of railways to India is by no means improbable. If attention be directed to the resources of Syria and Persia, we shall find ample room for the suggestion of similar schemes, and every new addition to the railway system of the East in this direction will reduce the distance between ourselves and our magnificent Indian possession. It appears probable that our connec tion with India will be completed rather by gradual ex tension than by the accomplishment of one grand project. SPORTING PROPHECIES. LIVERPOOL MEETING.

ASSAtLT ON ACOIIIO SlNGER.—Francis Reynolds, brush maker, of No. 20, Frith-street, Soho, was charged before Mr. Mansfield with violently assaulting Gus Douglas, a comic singer. Tho complainant, who appeared to have received a severe injury to the head, b,sides having the disfigure ment of a black eye, said that on Saturday night he was at the Green Man, in Berwick street, Soho, and after sing ing several songs he heard a disturbance in the house between the prisoner and a female th' prisoner had been living with. After leaving the house the prisoner joined another female, and upon that the first female swore she would knife the prisoner. Fearing some mischief might be done he went up to them and as soon as he did so the prisoner turned upon him, struck him on the nose, blackened his eye, and then, with something in his hand, struck him a severe blow on the head. The prisoner was taken into custody and ho (complainant) to the hospital, where he had his head dressed, bad to attend yesterday, and was to go again. Mr. Mansfield asked the constable who took the prisoner nto custody whether ho had a certificate from the surgeon at the hospital ? The constable said he had not. Mr. Mansfield remanded the prisoner. WESTMINSTER. UNFOUNDED CHARGE OF FELONY.—Wm. Henry Ewen, a respectable-looking man, described as a cab proprietor, was charged with stealing a watch and chain, value £8 108., the property of John 0. Wilson. Prosecutor stated that on the night of Thursday, Oct 21, he hired tho defendant to drive him from the Crown, in York-street, St. James's, to Godfrey's dining-rooms, in Knightsbridge, his lodgings, at 3 Harriet-street,.Lowndes square, being close by. When he reached there he found he had no money, and asked the accused to wait while ha borrowed some money, but as the cabman seemed dubious he gave him his watch and chain to hold while he got the money, and on his return the man had gone and his pro perty with him. Prisoner was identified by him and ap prehended on Saturday. In cross-examination by Mr. W. D. Levey, who ap peared for the accused, witness said he had been out of a situation three years. During that time he had been confined by his friends, and had escaped by a top window by means of two sheets, which he fastened round a dress ing table. It was not true that he had played a two string banjo in the streets for his living, but he had played it for his own amusement, and not for his neigh bours, and the boys got round him of course. Wheu he escaped from confinement he fell, and was taken to the hospital for the injuries. He had seen the accused three times after the robbery, but did not give him into custody because ho did not wish to frighten him, or expose him before his fare. (Here the witness's answers were of so vague a character that the Court was in roars of laughter), and witness failed entirely to satisfy the magistrate why he hal not given the man into custody on the occasions he had seen him. Ile added that it was not true that he treated two ladies to a tripe supper on the night in question. He had on another occasion. Mr. Arnold—What, you, a married man with a family, and such fatherly feelings as you tell us? Witness—Yes, my wife was 179 miles away. James Seymour, 176 B, proved apprehending the ac cused, who was identified by the prosecutor. The latter was generally supposed not to be quite right in his head, and the divisional surgeon was sent for, who considered him sane at that time. He had known the prisoner for 16 or 17 years, during the whole of which time he had borne the highest character. Mr. Smythe then called a number of witnesses who clearly proved an alibi, while he had a number of others to give the prisoner the highest character for honesty. Mr. Arnold said he had little doubt that this was a case of mistaken identity ; but as another witness not present might be able to set the matter quite at rest, he would re mand the accused till Thursday, and take his own recog nizances for his appearance. THAMES. ROBBERY IN TUB LONDON DOM.—Edward Dorset, aged 32 years, was charged with the unlawful possession of two candles, a cork screw and a duster, which he had stolen from a shop in the London Dock, where he had been employ Ad. He was stopped by Mr. Edward Spencer, an inspector of dock police, as he was leaving the dock with the above-named property iu his possession, and was sentenced to two niunthb' imprisonment and hard labour. THE TEMP ER AND TILE TEMPTED.—AIfred archer, aged 14 years, a warehouse boy iu the service of Messrs. Pinchin and Johnson, wholesale oil and colourmen, Cable-street, St. George-iu-the-East, and Thos. Hostler, 20, costormongor, were brought up on remand, and charged with stealing two casks of treacle, the property of the prosecutors. It appeared that the elder prisoner had tempted the boy to rob his employers. The proceedings wore watched by Police sergeant Dune away and Foster, constables of the detective force, U division, and they were seen to remove a cask of treacle from Pinchin and Johnson's warehouse, and they were taken into custody while rolling it along a street. Another cask of treacle and a cask of varnish were, missing from the prosecutors' promises. Dunaway said to Archer, " This systmn of robbery has b3en going on so:n 3 tirnl, to which A: cher replied, " Yes it has, and things have been taken away two or three times a week. Hostler, who had tempted the boy to plunder his employers, also made some admissions, and said nine Lad another cask of treacle front he boy on Monday night. Dunaway said that Hostler had been living on this system of plunder for sight months, and was confirmed by Foster The prisoners pleaded guilty. Mr. Paget said that he ha•l no doubt Hostler tempted the boy Archer to rob his employers. Be sentenced Hostler to six months' imprisonment and hard labour, and Archer, who was the to ser offender, and had been tempted to co:nmit crime, to three months' imprisonment and hard labour. SPORTING NOTES. There are two handicaps to be decided yet before the racing season may be said to have drawn to a close, namely, the Liverpool Autumn Handicap and the Shrewsbury Cup. Fur the Liverpool Cup there has been a very great deal of betting. Sir Joseph Hawley's lot, before the flag falls, will no doubt be backed against the field. Siderolite has been first favourite ever since the handicap appeared, but is now scratched, Lictor and Blue Gown have also come in for a good share of support. The latter has a very fishy appearance ,et preseat. Mr. Hodgman has both Van Ambuigh and John Davis engaged. The latter is too slow, but the former will render a good account of himself, if he does not absolutely win. George Osbaldeston has too much weight, and cannot give a horse like Walmer 251 b. Fair wind, Argyle, Flora, and Cocoa Nut are sure to run well, but I must rely on Argyle, Sir Joseph's intended, and Van Amburgh to pull me through. A FRESH MAN.

The vessel caught fire on the night of Wednesday, the 27th ult. Her cargo, which consisted chiefly of hay, was piled on deck. The fire spread rapidly, and she was run on a shoal, but the depth of water prevented the peopla reaching land. The night was cold, the wind high, and a swift current was running. Few of the sufferers were burnt, nearly all of them being drowned. Boats from the shore rescued the survivors.
