CITY, Two o'CLocr. Accounts from Liverpool report that the Cotton Market yesterday closed heavily, and prices of all descriptions were without material alteration. The males were estimated at 5,000 bales, 1,000 of which were taken by the exporters. The Railway Share Market presented a quiet appearance, and the busi ness was ed, but values slightly improved. The general state of business in the manufacturing districts, although still inactive, is perhaps quite as favourable as could reasonably have been ex pected. This is generally a dull season, but the advices both from America and Australia being more satisfactory, must encourage the millowners to look forward with some degreeof confidenceto the future. An improvement here being dependant upon a reco very in foreign and coloni4l markets, the favourable tenure of the r,cent intelligence must be regarded as satisfactory. The demand for discount accommodation con tinues very animated, and the terms charged for the negotiation of commercial paper have consequently been advanced. The movement in the rates, how ever, has been limited to an Bth or a I per cent. and as the supply is liberal, no difficulty is ex perienced in getting all the assistance required. lt is generally supposed, however, that in the space of a fdw weeks the inquiry will again subside, and as the dividends will then be in course of payment, the market is considered likely to resume its previously quiet and easy appearance. The traffic returns of the principal railways this week are expected to be more satisfactory, the re ports concerning them being of a favourable cha rat ter. Accounts from Paris state that the Bourse is still - very feeble, and some disappointment had been caused by the reaction in prices. The negotiations between the Government and the railway com *panies were still in progress, and it is not expected that the question will be immediately decided. The Market for Public Securities is firmer to day, and a rather larger business has been trans acted. Among the principal transactions was a purchase of 15,0001. Reduced by the Govern ment broker. Consols have bean 951 and 95i ; they are now however rather heavy, viz., 951. The market is easily affected by a small sale or purchase, but the general tendency seems favour ; able. The New Threes are 951 96i ; the Reduced 95i 96} ; Long Annuities, 1 ; Exchequer Bills (March), 325. to 365. pm. ; and ditto June, 18s. to 225. prem. ; Bank Stock is 221 ; and India Loan Debentures are 991. An upward tendency is apparent in the Foreign Stock Market, but business continues quiet. Turkish 6 per Cents. are 951. Russian 41 per , Cents. 1011. Sardinian 5 per Cents. 90. Dutch • 4 per ,Cents. 1011. Portuguese 3 per Cants. 47. and Brazilian Scrip 1i to 1 discount. There has been a moderate business reported in the Railway Share Market, and in most instances • prices have improved to a slight extent, as it is expected that the traffic returns of most of the leading lines will show some improvement. Caledo xlians, Eastern Counties, Midlands, North Eastern (Berwick), and South-Eastern, improved ss. Groat Western, Lancashire and Yorkshire, and North . British, 10s. ; North-Western, and Stockton and Darlington declined about ss. In the Foreign lines the transactions were confined to Paris and, . Lyons, which declined about 103. The Colonial undertakings were a shade firmer. East Indian advanced 53 ; Great Western of Canada, 5s ; and Great Indian Peninsula, ss. Joint Stock Bank Shares have been very quiet. London and County improved 5s ; and Union of Australia, SP. In the Miscellaneous Market Canada Land Shares have improved about 4/.

MEETING THIS DAY. The general quarterly court of this company was held this day, at the India House, Leadenhall-street, for the purpose of laying before the proprietors for their approbation the unanimous resolutions of the Court of Director', granting annuities to General Sir Colin Camp bell of 2,0001., and to Major-General Outram of 1,0001. per annum ; also fur laying before the proprietors a bill (No. 3) now before Parliament, entitled "a bill for the better Government of India." The chair was taken by Sir F. Currie. The minutes of the last quarterly court having been read and confirmed, The CHAIRMAN said a letter had been received from the Governor-General of India, Lord Canning, acknow ledging the vote of confidence passed at a former court. The Secretary then read the letter. ANNUITY To CoLIN CAMPBELL. The CIIAIRILAN said it now beoame his duty to call upon the Secretary to lay before the Court of Proprie tors the unanimous resolution of the Court of Directors, granting an annuity of 2,0001. to Sir C. Campbell dur. ing his natural life. The Secretary read the resolntion, which stated that the annuity was t 3 commence from the period of the taking of Lucknow, and that it had been conferred for his eminent and brilliant services in rescuing the resi- dency of Lucknow, and in restoring the supremacy of the British authority in India. (Hear, hear, and cheers.) The CHAIRMAN said it now became his pleasing duty of moving the confirmation of the resolution of the Court of Directorg. (Cheers.) He would not at that time enter into's - detailed statement of the eminent services of Sir Colin Campbell, as they wore as well known to each of the proprietors as they were to the Court of Directors. (Hear, hear.) ,He bad great gratification in being the organ in bringing forward the resolution; and that feeling was enhanced by the fact that it bad been his good fortune to serve with Sir C. Campbell, and he could `conscienciously say that a better soldier or a man more devoted to his country did not exist. (Hear, bear.) Captain Eanwica said he had great pleasure in seconding the motion, as be felt that no man bad con tributed more to the glory and fame of the British army in India than the galhnt General. (Hear) He trusted that he might long be spared to enj Iy the honours conferred upon him by the Crown and the British nation. (Hear.) Mr. CatwaMAY said he greatly disapproved of the pro ceedings that had taken place in Oude. He thought they had been unjust and ( ppressive, and to mark his feeling on the subject, although he by no means objected to reward di4tinguished services, he should move as an amendment that the Court refuse to ratify the resolution, and thus protest against the proceedings which have taken place at Oude. Mr. JONES seconded the amendment. After a few observations from the Chairman and Mr, Prinsep, the amendment was withdrawn, and the rebo. lution carried unanimously. ANNUITY TO SIR J, OUTRAM. A. resolution, conferring an annuity of 1,0001. on Sir J. Outran, was tben proposed and agreed to.

IMPERIAL PAIUMAMEN HOUSE OF COMMONS.—(This Day.) The SrEAKER. took the chair at 12 o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The Lords' amendments to the Edinburgh and Glas gow and Stirling and Dunfermline Railways Bill, and the Fife atcl Kinross arid ICinrcs3-shire.Railways Bill, were considered and agreed to. The Severn Valley Railway (Extension of Time) Bill was considered, and ordered to be read a teird time. REGISTRATION OF PARTNERSHIP BILL. Viscount GODERICH moved the second reading of this bill. The obj,ct of the measure was a very simple one. It merely proposed that all persons who entered into partnerehip, or who traded either under other names than their own, or under the indefinite appella•• tion of a " company," should be required to make kniwn to the public who and what the partners were. To obtain that object be proposed that the names of persons so trading should be entered in a register, and be open to the examination of all persons interested and requiring information. That being the single object of the bill, it appeared to him to be worthy the considera tion of the house, first for reasons which recommended the adoption of such a system necessary, and then be cause he thought ha should be able to show that the adoption of such a system had received the sanction and approval of a large portion of the commercial commie nity. He thought no one would deny that the greatest facilities should, be afforded to the trading public of knowing who the parties really were with whom they were dealing. The present system of persons trading under the name of old and respectable firms admitted of great fraud. There were numerous instances of such frauds on record, but be would not detain the house under the present state of the surrounding atmosphere —(hear)---which he thought ought to be remedied with out delay—(hear)---by entering at great length into them, but he should content himself with quoting two instances, which would illugratt the whol jeorkit g of the system, and a hich it was tk 3 duty of the house to take ire aiediatestepsto remedy. One was the case of Mr. Stephens, who was connected with the Eastern Banking Company, who in his examination before the Scstch Bankruptcy Court admitted he was the head and sole representative of a variety of firms, each trading under a distinct and separate name ; and the other was a recent case in Dundee, where a person in insolvent circumstances had for a number of years maintained a false position and credit on the faith of the name of the firm. The bill had been introduced at the request and on the approval of all the Chambers of Commerce in that part of York shire which be had the honour to represent. The history of the bill was this: In 1856 the Commercial Association of Manchester took the subject into their considera tion, and, with the aid of legal assistance, they drew up a paper on the subject in accordance with the beads of the bill before the house, and the machinery it pro vided for carrying out its object. In 1857 the heads of the paper referred to were submitted to the considera tion of the Mercantile Law Conference, presided over by Lord Brougham, and at that conference a resolution was agreed to approving of the principle embodied in this bill. The Chambers of Commerce of Leeds Brad ford, Sheffield, Huddersfield, Manchester, Bristol, Wol verhampton, and other places in England bad petitioned the house in favour of the bill, and the Chambers of Commerce of Edinburgh and Dundee had petitioned that its provisions might be extended to Scotland. It was true that a petition had been presented from Manchester against the bill, and if that was to be urged as a reason for the house not approving of the bill, he had a right to say that he had a larger number of the commercial community in its favour, whose opinions, he contended, were entitled to weight and consideration in that house. The bill had been characterised as an in quisitorial measure, but he thought it an inappropriate appellation. If the commercial community were un willing to receive such a measure, that would be a suf ficient reason for the house rejecting it, but that was not the case, and he hoped the house would agree to his motion. The motion having been seconded, Mr. COLLIER considered the bill would inflict iejury on the trading community without a corresponding ad vantage. The bill would press heavily on the poorer classes, for if it were carried any two coetermongers or fish-women who joined in a speculation only one day , would be obliged to pay half a-crown each for registra tion before they could recover the value of the goods they had sold. This bill was inquisitor;al in i s charac ter, and would comp'icate and perplex the already diffi cult question of partnership. This measure was a step in the wrong direction. It was re-enacting protec tion, which was contrail to the principles, of modern legislation. The commercial oomenunity did not require the measure, but the registrars generally throughout the country. They were the prime movers in the affair. They had a strong organisation throughout the country, and they were continually agitating registration, and he believed they would never be satisfied till they had registered everybody and everything. If the shop keepers of the country really knew what the bill, if carried, had in store for them, they would unanimously rise a,ainst it, and petition for its rejection. He moved the second reading of the bill this day six months. Mr. MOFFATT' seconded the amendment. He con sidered the bill would prove a mockery, a delusion, and a sham with regard to the trading community. Mr. BUXTON was in favour of the measure. It would be a protection to the country. It did not med dle with the law of partnership. It left that where it was, and al it proposed was to provide a check against dishonest firms carrying on business under false pretences. Many of the objections to the bill could be considered and, if necessary, remedied in committee. They did not apply to the principle of the bill. The main evil in this country, as coutradistinguished from most others carrying on large commercial transac• tions was, that firms were allowed in this o.mntry to re tain and to use their original designation and tides, when the old and monied partners had retired from the concern, and young men of no capital traded on the reputation awl credit Of the old concern. Mr. WARREN considered the legi-lature ought act to interfere in matters of this kind. Lord Mansfield was the illustrious founder of the mercantile law in one of its great aspects, and that learned authority said the mer cantile law flourished most when it was not interfered with by the State, but when it was left alone to deal with matters connected with its own welfare. He had a fundamental objection to the principle of the bill. He believed the unexpected but sure effect of the bill would be to drive capital outof trade. Money was advanced by capi alists to a great ee ent to traders for the double olject of increasing the means and furthering the interests of those to whom the capital was advanced, but this bill would prevent its continuance. and the effect would be to cripple trade by diverting the salubrious stream of capital from the channels of com merce. This bill, if carried, would disturb exist ing partnerships. It would inflict loss on the most sober and small enterprising traders, and prevent their becoming legitimately large traders. Mr. M. T. BAINES supported the bill. The objec lions that bad been made to it were more of detail than of principle. He considered one of the leading effects of the bill would be to check fictitious trading and fal-e credit, arid these were the persons who mostly dreaded the pas=ing of this measure. There could be no harm in compelling firms to give in formation under this bill they were compelled to give on pleas of ab atement, after put ing the creditor a great and unneces sary expense. Mr. WEGUELLIN had a stroll , ' objection to the principle and the details of the bill. Parliament ought tot to regulate commercial transactions, but it should be entirely left to individuals themselves to perform. He thought it was impossible to separate the details of the bill from its principle. He denied that business was earmd on under false pre tences, for tradesmen trusted only those they knew. (Hear, hear ) The public a ere moray interested in knowing who left a firm, and not who joined it because the former generally took their capital with them, and that information was provided f.,r by its announcement in the Gazette under the head of dissolutions of partnership. Mr. SPOONER concurred with much that had been said about the details and machinery of the bill, but the question [LEFT SPEAKING SALE OF A NEW RIVER COMPANY'S SHARE.—Yesterday, at the Auction Mart, Mr. Debenham offered to public aution a one-sixth part of an entire thirty-six share in the Adventurers Moiety of the New River Company, a pro perty which very rarely appears in the public maaket. The annual income (inclusive of the annual payment in r,- spect of redeemed land tax), as declared at Christmas last, was stated to be 1491. 6s Bd, being at the rate of 896/. per entire share. The eatire property is divided into only seventy-two shlrrs. The lot sold for 3,3001., and a similar one-sixth share was taken by the purchaser at the same prise. ADVE MSS/MT.

Baker, the coroner for Middlesex, held an inquest at the St. Katharine Dock Hotel, on the body of Richard Billingsley, aged 59, a wataman, who die' under an attack or Asia , ic cholera. The deceased, who lit-el in a narrow court in Upper East Smithfield, was in the habit of plying at Irongate--tairg, near the Tower, and lived a re gular and sober life. Since the warm weather Lad set in, he complained of a general debility, and a great nausea, arising, as he stated, from inhaling the poisonous air of the river. He also suffered from diarrhoea. On returning from work on Thurs day evening, he complained of the increasing stench of the Thames, which had much affected him. He took to his bed, and on the following day the parish doctor made up a prescription for him. He, how ever, btcarne worse, end on Saturday night Mr. English, a surgeon, visited him, and found him labouring under all the symptoms of Asiatic cho lera. He vomited, and was violently purge 1, and complained of cramp in his extremities. The de ceased did not recover, and died on Sunday after noon. Mr. English stated that the d-ceased remarked that be was much affected by the stench arising from the river. He died from the effects of an attack of Asiatic cholera. The widow deposed to her husband complaining of a great nausea when he returned home on Thurs day. He could not eat anything, as he said h could not get the wench off his lungs. In answer to . a juror, Mr. English said there was no doubt the attack bad been brought on by in haling bad air. Near the stairs where the deceased worked a large sewer ernpti-d itself into the river, and the effluvia arising from it must be very offen s:ve. Several of the jury alluded to the present dan gerous condition of the river and the docks (St Katharine and L ‘ndon) in that neighbourhood, the basins of which could only be compared tt. large cesspools. The water was as black as ink, and emitted a most poisonous vapour over the whole district. It was a reproach to the large dock companies that they had not done something to wards remedying this serious state of things, and which endangered the lives of the whole popula tion in the district. Mr. English, in answer to the foreman, said there was no doubt that the present condition of the water iu the docks was very detrimental to the public health. The air was charged with a noxious vapour. This wa3 the first case of Asiatic cholera that had occurred in the neighbourhood. The Coroner observed there could be no doubt as to the state of the river and the docks being pre judicial to the public health, and it was to be hoped that every possible precaution would be taken to mitigate the evil. A juror trusted that this case would operate as a warning to the proper authorities whose duty it was to protect the health of the public. The jury then returned a verdict that the de ceased died from the effects of an attack of Asiatic cholera, brought on by inhaling the noxious vapour of the Thames. MURDER AND SUICIDE IN PARIS. A dreadful murder and suicide, cotnnaitted yes terday morning in the house No. 40, Rue Bourbon- Villenuve, produced an immense sensation in the whole of the Quartier 8-. Denis. It appears that about two years ago a woman, aged 38, having been left a widow with two little girls, formed the acquaintaece of a widower aged 44, having two sons. In the curse of time a marriage took place between the man and woman, but the husband, a land-measurer by occupation, turned out an idle, drunken fellow, and the whole onus of keeping the family devolved on the woman. The two sons of the man did not live in the house, being bound out to trades. Differences soon 'arose between the husband and wife, and these quarrels at last be came asuhject of conversation in the neighbour hood. " reSterday abotit right, the two little girls, aged ten and eight., having gone to school, the husband and wife were left together in the house. Aftcr a while, cries were heard to proceed from their apartment, and the wife of the concierge hurried up to see what was the matter. She knocked at the door, and heard the wife exclaim, " Come in ! come in 1" but the do , r was locked, and the husband re fused to open it. The porter's wife then hur ried down stairs, and sent at once for the com missary of police. When that functionary arrived, finding the door still closed, he had it forced open, and to his horror found the corpse of the woman lying just inside with the head nearly separated from the trunk, and further on, the dead body of the husband, pierced with five stabs in the region of the heart. Near his right side was a large kitchen knife, with which he had evidently committed suicide. It is supposed that the wretched man, after some dispu e with the wife, drew a razor suddenly across her throat with such free as to kill her instantaneously, and then, after throwing the razor out of the window, killed him self. Just as the commissary of police was ascend ding the stairs, a razor st fined with blood fell iu the street, near a passer-by. It is, therefore, in ferred that the murder and suicide must have taken place within less than a minute of each other, and iu the space of time which elapsed from the mo ment of the commissary entering the house to that when the door wrs burst open. This dreadful event caused crowds to congregate in the neigh bourhood during the whole day. MARKET NEWS.—(Thi Day.; CORN EXCHANGE. We had a very limited quantity of English wheat on offer to-day, coast wise and by land carriage. For most kinds the demand was steady, and Monday's prices were well supported. Over 11,600 quarters of foreign wheat have come in this week ; nevertheless holders wore very fine, but the trans actions were restricted, at previous rates. We had a very slow inquiry for both barley and malt, on former terms. The show of foreign oate was large, yet the oat trade ruled steady, at full currencies. Beans, peas, and flour were in fair request, at Monday's quotations. ARRIVALS THIS WEER. Wheat. Barley. \ Malt. 950 170 2,840 Oats.
