The bullion shows a large decrease, while there is also a considerable diminution in the revenue of notes. The private deposits exhibit a falling off of over a million sterling, but there is a rather large addition to the public balances, caused by the pay ments made on account of the Indian Government. In the other items of the balance sheet there is no change of importance ; the variations will be seen in the subjoined table : Active Circulation • • • • Increase •• •• •• Bullion •• •• •• Decrease Rest •• •• •• Increase •• •• .• Public Deposits • • • .

In the Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday there was an increased demand for all descriptions, and prices exhibited a further improvement of ls. Bd. per lb. The sales amounted to 20,000 bales. Only a small amount of gold, viz. £1,600, was withdrawn from the Bank of England yesterday. No alteration of importance was apparent in the foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon.

G ALLANT EXPLOIT OF A NAVAL OFFICER. —As her Majesty's ship Exmouth lay off Canes, Crete, on the 24th of September, a sailor, who had been up the rigging, lost his hold and fell into the sea, a depth of 30 feet; one or two sailors jumped in after him, but their efforts were without effect; he mink to the bottom. At this inoment Lieutenant G. L. Sullivan came up and jumped overboard, and it was thought that he, too, had sunk to rise no more •, but after two minutes of breathless suspense he reappeared much exhausted, but witk the man he had so bravely risked his life to save, and it is satisfactory to know that both have now recovered from the effects of their long immersion. Lieutenant Sullivan was complimented and congratulated by Captain Paynter for his gallant deed, while the ship's company came forward with the noble- heartedness of true British tars grateful for the safety of their comrade, and expressed their desire to offer Lieute nant Sullivan a lasting testimonial of their esteem, and the sum of from £BO to MO was at once handsomely subscribed by them, but their kindness was respectively declined by Lieutenant Sullivan, and expressed himself sufficiently re warded by saving life. In 1852 the same officer received the Humane Society's silver medal for rescuing a rasa from drowning who had fallen off her Majesty's ship M e g ora, when the ship was going at a speed of more than six knots an hour.

SUN OFFICE, Six o'clock,. AUSTRIA. The Opinio;te of Turin says :—" The news given some time ago about Austria's objection to a Congress is fully confirmed. In the Conference at Warsaw it was found impossible to draw up a general programme of the Congress, and at Vienna Count Rechberg is said to have declared to the Envoys of France and England, that, before de ciding, Austria must be made acquainted with the intentions of their respective Governments, since she cannot accept a Congress if the theory of accomplished facts is accepted by the other Powers. On the other hand, it is said that Baron de Bach has, from Rome, informed Count Rech berg that Cardinal Antonelli is by no means favourable to the proposal of a Congress. It is certain that at Rome the intervention of Austria would be preferred ; but the probabilities of an aggression have diminished, and France and England having asked the Cabinet of Vienna for explanations touching the reinforcements of troops sent into Venetia, that Cabinet has replied that it was a merley precautionary measure, rendered ne cessary by the situation and by the threats of the Italian revolution. We learn that the Conference at Warsaw has led to no result, because both Austria and Prussia were opposed to the revision of the Treaty of 1856 relative to Turkey. Nego tiations for this revision had been opened between Russia and France, and we believe they are not yet interrupted. It is well known that Russia attaches great importance to the revision of that treaty, which is, besides, acknowledged to be the source of great difficulties by the other Powers, whose only reason for oppo s i ng an y modification iof it s that of, avoiding still greater complica tions." SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. BETTING AT MANCHESTER-YZSTBRDAY. It is difficult to make quotations so as to give anything like a correct idea of the betting on the Liverpool Cap. It seemed as though everything, with the exception perhaps of Light and Killigrew, had to undergo the operation of " knocking out." Light was 'backed as low as Bto 1, then 9to 1 was offered—take 10 to 1. The Brower was at one time at 100 to 6, then 100 to 4 was offered. Summereide seemed friendless, though we heard nothing higher than 100 to 6 offered. Heiress and Chere Arnie figured at one time at 100 to 3 (offered), and Golden Pippin at 50 to 1 (offered). An offer afterwards to back Heiress was met with (100 to 5), but declined. The quotations are as near the actual state of the market as we can make it.

THE GREAT CHESS MATCH-The final game in the chess match which has, during the past week, caused so great an interest among the chess fraternity, came off yesterday afternoon, and resulted in the triumph of Herr Kolisch, the great Hungarian player, who succeeded in winning three games to a single one scored by his antago nist, Herr Horwitz.

TILE STEPNEY MURDER. EXTRAORDINARY STATEMENT OF THE PRISONER A memorial drawl up by the prisoner James Mullins himself, in his own language, was yesterday transmitted to the Home Secretary, through his solicitor, Mr. H. Wood, praying for a commutation of the capital sentence. The memorial is as follows : " James Mullins wishes to explain some difficul ties against him at his trial. These are chiefly the alibi proved in favour of Emm on the Monday night, and the hour at which he states he saw him deposit the parcel. • " There may be two suppositions with regard to the time of the murder—one placing it on the Mon day night, the other on Tuesday morning—in either case no proof against me. First, if committed on Monday, my children swear I was at home all night from 7 o'clock. He also wishes that Mrs. Mudie should be found out, as she would probably swear she knew him to be at home on that night or even ing. The alibi in favour of Emm would only show that he did not commit the murder on Monday night, but yet he might have received the parcel from the man who did. In the second supposition— that it was committed on Tuesday morning, no evi dence was given to show that Emm, or any other person, may not have committed it, as the alibi was proved only for Monday; yet it was distinctly sworn by Mrs. Barnes, living opposite, that she saw some person moving papers at the top window on Tuesday morning, between the hours of 9 and 10 o'clock. That must be just before the murder was committed, as the person could not go back again after committing the deed on the previous night. Why should not this woman's evidence be believed, when she had the daylight and could not be mis taken in seeing the person moving the papers. The witness Stephenson, who has proved that he saw a man named Rowland, one of the de ceased's collectors, come from the deceased's house on the morning of Tuesday, between the hours of 10 and 11 o'clock, with a quantity of Pr ,Japerhangings under his arm ; this witness proved that Rowland seemed quite confused when spoken to by the witness on trade, who had known him a long time before, and after hearing of the murder, gave information to the police. This man Rowland was in conversation with Emm on the previous night. This was sworn to on the trial. With regard to the hour stated of the placing of the parcel in the shed, prisoner might be easily deceived, as he had no watch to tell him the hour and he could not see any clock. Prisoner submits that he was not convicted from legal evidence, but through preju dice • and he trusts the Home Secretary will consi der the whole case without prejudice, and prove to the world that the life of a man is too sacred to be taken on mere suspicion. Prisoner feels that the police have been very sharp towards him, and not in endeavouring to ascertain whether some one else might not have committed the crime ; and that if they had gone immediately on receipt of informa tion from prisoner, they might have found the re mainder of the parcel in Emm's cottage. (Signed) " JAMES MULLINS." In addition to the prisoner's own statement, Mr. Wood has also urged upon the consideration of the Secretary of State the following facts :—That neither on the hammer, the clothes, nor the boots, was any trace of blood found, though they have been carefully examined, and from the evidence, this fact is quite irreconcilable with Mullins's guilt. 2dly, That the evidence of Mrs. Barnes, a highly respectable witness, entirely corroborates the wit ness Stephenson, and their evidence throws consi derable doubt on the case for the prosecution. idly, That the Chief Baron's remarks as to the prisoner not giving any account of the possession of the cheque is not in accordance with the principles of the law of England, as no man is bound to crimi nate himself, and even if Mullins had been a re ceiver he would not be liable for murder.

OCCUPATION OF TIEN-TSIN. (From the Special Correspondent of the _Times.) CAMP, TANG-KOW, ON THE PEIHO, AUG. 25. The Taku Forts are captured. The enemy made a gallant and desperate resistance at the upper Northern Fort, which was only stormed by our troops after three hours and a-ha . lf's hard fighting. The others surrendered soon after the action. Part of the army , occupies Tien-thin ; the remainder will follow on 'Tuesday , leavi ng a small garrison in the forts. Not a Tartar or Chinese soldier i s now i n arms ; and Sang-ko-lin-sin has fled to Pekin. Finally, the Armstrong gun has be en we ll tested in the field. Its success is triumphant and unequivo cal. Beyond question or dispute, it is the best gun yet used in action. Now for the details. On the 9th inst. a reconnaissance by Lieut.-Colonel Wol seley, Capt. Brabazon, Col. Dupin, and some other officers, with a party of cavalry, was made across the mud on the right of Pehtang up to the Tien thin road, about six miles in front. The result was satisfactory. The mud was discovered to be prac- ticable fur cavalry and artillery during dry weather, and beyond the four or five miles to which it ex tended was a hard plain with abundance of good water. It rained in torrents during the 10th, so it was impossible to start on the 11th, as originally intended. The weather having improved on that day, the Commanders-in-Chief determined to lose no time, and the army was ordered to march at day break on the 12th. The small town of ginito, against which operations were directed, lies on the road from Tang-kow and the Northern forts to Tien-tsin, About seven miles south-west of Pehtang, three miles north-west of Tang-kow, and six miles north-west of the Northern forts, it forms the most advanced position of the Chinese on the north bank of the river. Three in.- trenched camps, commanding the causeway from Pehtang, had been made towards the east of the town, the last intrenchment resting on Sinho itself. They were constructed in the usual fashion of mud and straw, with crenelated walls and a deep ditch, and were of very recent formation. After the reconnaissance of the 9th, it was deter mined to make a double attack on this position, so as to turn the left flank of the Tartars, cut them off from the Tien-tsin road, and drive them into the forts in their rear. For this purpose General Napier with the Second Division was to diverge to the right 300 yards from the causeway gate, and march across the mud to the Tien-Wu road, while the First Divi sion and the French marched along the causeway and attacked the intrenchments in front. At 5 a.m. on the 12th the division commenced defiling through the gate. First came an advanced guard of three companies of the Buffs, with two of Capt. Milward's Armstrong guns in support; then four other Arm. strongs, of Milward's battery, the 23d company of Royal Engineers, Bth Regiment of Punjabees, 44th Regiment, Rotton's rocket battery, Royal Marines, Madras Sappers, and right wing of the 67th Regi ment. The rearguard was formed by the left wing of the 67th. The cavalry—King's Dragoon Guards, Probyn's Horse, and Fane's Horse, with Stirling 's battery, followed soon aft er , an d were attached to the division. On leaving the road it became abun dantly apparent that the mud was most difficult to cross. The infantry were ankle deep, and before proceeding 200 yards all the Armstrong waggons had sunk above the axle. In vain were ropes attached and fatigue parties of soldiers called into requisition. All their efforts were in vain. The waggons were immovable, so the limbers, containing 30 rounds a-gun, were detached and brought on, the remainder of the waggons being left in the I marsh, and eventually taken back - to Pehtang. These waggons weigh 10 cwt. more than the guns, and are much too heavy for service. Meanwhile ' the guns themselves kept advancing through ground such as has seldom been traversed by artillery. Over and over again the horses' legs disqppeared in the mud, and the carriage sank above the axle. Quick as thought the horses were unharnessed. the guns unlimbered, ropes applied to the wheels, and, with a strong pull and a pull together, the men had the guns out of the hole. Then came large ruts, or rather small trenches, over which they had to be rattled at a gallop, and then mud, marsh, and slush again. For fully five miles were thee guns knocked about before reaching hard ground. Arrived on the plain, General Napier hafted the division, aid or dered the cavalry to advance from the town. Capt. Milward then made a careful examination of the Armstrongs—" those delicate weapons which would never bear the rough work of war." Not one gun was a pin the:worse, none of the "gingerbread" was damaged ; the sights were uninjured, the screws in good order, the carriages perfect. Capt. Milward having been appointed to command a division, con sisting of his own battery and Govan's, the imme diate command of this battery of Armstrong's de volved on Capt. Harrison. From officers to men there was but one feeling—every one had pride in the gun and fall confidence in its success, and each worked as if the entire responsibility rested on his own shoulders. Muddy, drenched, arid draggled, the men were hearty and cheery, though their knapsacks and a great part of their rations had been left behind in the waggons. It was a treat to see the artillery horses over the first bucket of good water they had drunk for ten days. At Pehtang nearly allot' them refused the brackish filthy compound of mud and salt water, and they were beginning to suffer; but the fine plain on which we halted was studded with pools of clear fresh water, whence men and beasts were abun dantly refreshed. After an hour's halt the cavalry ar rived, and the whole force advanced, right wheel, on Shill°. First came a picket of Sikhs under Major Probyn. Then two companies of the Buffs in skir mishing order, with the Armstrongs on their left. Behind them the main column of infantry, with the cavalry on the right, up to the Tien-tsiu road, and protecting the rear. Videttes of Tartar horse were seen in front, flank, and rear, but they retired as the army approached without firing a shot. After march ing upwards of an hour we arrived before S in ho,about a mile from which place Gen. Napier halted the divi sion. The plain extended up to the town, which was open in front. On the proper right of the Tartars were the three large intrenchments, on their left market gardens and a small intrenched camp on the road to the river. The possibility of their being at tacked on the road from Tien-tsin had never occurred to them, so no preparations whatever had been made to receive us. A large body of Tartar cavalry took up position in front of the town when they saw the army approach, their line extending for about a mile and a half. Gen. Napier's dispositions were soon made. The infantry was formed in line of con tiguous columns at quarter-distance, the Buffs in advance in skirmishing order, three Armstrongs in the centre, three more on the British left flank, the cavalry on the right, partially concealed by the Tien-tsin road, with Stirling's battery to cover that road. And now the Armstrongs in the centre were ordered to open fire on the Tartar cavalry. I stood by Capts. Milward and Harrison as the first gun was fired at 20 minutes to 11 a.m., at a range of about 1,200 yards. The first shot was bad, the elevation was too great, and the shell passed harm lessly over the eneziy. It was the only failure. The second shell burst right in the midst of the largest group, and half a dozen saddles were instantly empty. " Three degrees," shouted Capt. islilward, and the range was got by every gun. For upwards of 10 minutes the battery made magnificent practice. Not a shot failed, not a shell that did not burst in the exact spot to which it was directed. Right and left, at the cavalry in front, into the entr enchments on the flank, at 1,200 yards, at 1,600, at 2,200, weer the shells pitched with unerring aceara.cy..e d A ivision d breeze and no file firing enabled the wb I to witness the effect of the Armstrong gun, as g on g e u o n n o w first tested in action, and there was but one The Tartars to its absolute and unqualified stood right manfully for 10 so, after some trpseiunmetie;tes, when they found the place too hot for h desperate resolution of wavering, they took the hd anksof the English, and attempting to turn bot A large body of Tartar so get into their cavalry rushed up threeaTrien-tsin road, while a smaller I force advanced on ou r left.

Just at this moment the guns of the First Division and the French were h eard on the A r mstrongs were ordered to cease thine. b left, so t he into the intrench ments . I galloped across to Stir ling's battery , and was admiring his practice, when to the surprise of every one a body of 80 or 90 Tar tars rushed from their front to take his guns in flank. On they came with the most wild and unearthly cries. So unexpected was this attack that Capt. Stirling had barely time to fire two rounds of case, when they were within 100 yards of the guns. There was no infantry near, but a guard of 25 of Fine's Horse, under the command of Lieut. M'Gre gor, was attached to the battery. Now was the time, now the chance to test the Sikhs against the Tartars. Without a moment's hesitation, and regardless of numbers, Lieut. M'Gregor gave the word to charge, and away went the Sikhs in most gallant style. No flinching, no craning; every spur was well in the horse's side, when one-half the Tartars met them in full shock. The effect was instantaneous. One of the leading Sikhs ran his spear right through the body of a Mongol horseman, the head entering at his chest and going out at bis back. The spear broke in the middle, the Mongol fell to the ground spitted, and never moved a limb. Lieut. M'Gregor singled out his man, and was in the act of spearing hi, when another Tartar fired his matchloc k within 10 yards point black. The slugs hit the Lieutenant n n., 1 0 five places, t'aree lodging in the ch es t , 7 b y the rn forehead, For a moment he was bhp . a a . a fire, which burnt his face, but the work was &tie. The Tartars dispersed in every direction, the whole affair lasting little more than a minute. I am happy to say that Lieut. M•Gregor is fast recovering from his wounds, which, though severe, are not in the least dangerous. Nothing could be more gallant than his conduct, for he had no supports, and but a handful of men. The Sikhs were delighted with the result, which naturally inspired them vi ith the greatest confidence, and proved their unquestion able superiority over the Tartar cavalry. 'I he First Division and the French, who had advanced along the causeway, now commenced a tremendous fire against the more advanced intrenchment. .Barry's Armstrongs and Desborough's and Govan's Eng lish batteries, with three batteries of French rifled cannon, were in full play. The Tartars op ened a sharp and harmless fire from gingals and :match locks, but were driven from one intrenchment to the other by the artillery alone, no infantry having been engaged. At the end of an hour the en emy had retreated along the causeway to Tang-how, and down to a ferry over the river. Sinho was in pos session of the allies. Meanwhile Probymand Fane were dealing with such bodies of Tartars as kept within reach. Lieut. Anderson of Probyn's horse got detached from his regiment, with Eve of his own men and two of Fane's. Three or four hundred Tartars surrounded them, when Probyn heard of their condition. On seeing him advance with one squadron of his own regiment and a small party of Fane's Horse the Tartars quietly retreated a slow trot. The Sikh horses were much exhausted by their struggles in the mud, so Probyn ordered his men not to charge too soon, arid pursued the enemy quietly, saving his horses until he neared them. At length, when within two hundred yards, the Sikhs became impatient and difficult to restrain. The chief Rissildar could contain himself no longer. He shouted his war yell at the top of his voice, the others followed suit, and down they went full speed after the Tartars. Away they rushed, helter-skelter, along the causeway, but the little galloways of the enemy were nearly a match for the splendid Arabs after their day's fatigue; and, to use the words of one of the officers engaged, they " killed awfully few, not more than 50 or 60." Of these no fewer than seven fell before the sword of Lieut. Anderson, whose blood was fairly up. Sower Wayeer Khan, of Fane's Horse, was killed, as he manfully stood by Lieut. Anderson. Duffadar Berjon Singh, of Probyn's, was dismounted early in the fight, but he refused to leave the field, and. on foot had two desperate encounters with several of the enemy. He was severely wounded, and his life was only saved by several Sowars going triGhis assistance. Sowar Khowajah Mahomed was cut off with Lieut. Anderson. He charged tie enemy several times, heedless of numbers, and when An derson's right arm was disabled by a blow he rushed to his assistance. Lieut. Anderson saw him slay four of the enemy. In another direction. Fane maintained his well-earned reputation as a skilful swordsman and leader of irregulars. Re was the first to get at the Tartar horsemen, of whom he gave a good account, though they escaped rather too quickly for his wishes across a canal. After the action was over I walked carefully over the ground, including the intrenchments taken by the First Division and the French. The effect of the Armstrong fire was everywhere visible. Many of the shells had gone straight through the embra sures, bursting on the other side. The wounds were awful. One man was cut completely in two. A shell had burst right in the middle of another and blown him to pieces. Horses were lying about with their legs hanging by a thread, and the frightful effect of the missiles was completely proved. There lay the sectional pieces into which they burst, each shell exploding into 49 fragments, in addition to the top and leaden casing, all the same weight and size, all sharp-pointed and angular. Notwithstand ing the tremendous disadvantages under which they labou red, the enemy acted like brave men. 4,000 or 5,000 Tartar cavalry, with a few gingals, fought against enormous odds, for the English had up wards of 10,000 men engaged in the two divisions, and the French about 4,000 or 5,000. They did. their best, and no troops could have shown more resolution. But bows and arrows could hardly prevail against Armstrong guns and French rifled cannon. '1 he Mongols and Mantchoo cavalry en gaged on the 12th are strong, bread-shouldered, muscular fellows, who, with proper training, would make first-rate soldiers. They had no swords ; each man carried a bow and arrows, in addition to which every sixth soldier carried a matchlock, and every tenth a spear. Each gingal was carried on one horse, the stand on another. At full speed the matchlockmen turned in their saddles, and fired on their pursuers, loading again as they gallopped off. Their defeat was certain, but by no means disgrace ful. It is almost impossible to ascertain their lose in this affair. During the hottest firing, when the Armstrong shells were scattering death and de struction in every direction, they could be seen laying their wounded across horses, and hurry ing to the rear. About 200 deed bodies were found, and for days the wounded, who, during the hurry and hustle, had been left on the plaia, were brought in by pickets and reconnoitering parties. Six days after the action Major Hay found a Mongol about two miles and a-half from Sham. He was sabred about the head and shoulders, but had no fatal wound. For six days had he lain on the plain without food or water, and, though much attenuated, he was still alive. Major Hay gave Lim bread and water, for which he signified liisgratitude, and, a doolie with two sowers having been sent out he was brought into camp, and is doing well. Nearly all the loss was inflicted by the Armstrong guns and the Sikhs, for the infantry, with the exception of the skirmishers, was never engaged. In the First Division of the English there was but one casualty. Gunner Travers, of Barry's battery, was dangerously shot in the left thigh. The French had three or four wounded. In the Second Division the loss was heavier, for there the cavalry was en gaged. I append a nominal list of the killed and wounded, and include the Sikhs, as it is not impos sible the 'limes may convey the information to their families in India. Every man did his duty well, never thinking of danger. The three privates of the 44th were wounded by the bursting of one of our own rockets. After an hour's halt the allied commanders took a careful survey of their position. A narrow raised causeway, about three miles long, led across the plain from Sinho to Tang-kow, where a large in trenched camp was visible. This road was bordered_ on either side by a deep trench 12 feet or 14 feet wide, full of water, and without a bridge. On tho left was marsh, and the ground on the right was intersected with ditches, making it e rd by the r imprac ticable for artillery.

Ho states that the Chinese merchants had made out from the barbarian merchants that the latter were unanimous in pro nouncing Bruce " utterly intractable." If any of them deprecated hostilities, he replied, " I shall carry out my policy ; lam not tobe gulled by you." He was very irate at having been enticed into a snare at Taku ; and, although Ho desired no ' trouble, it was not so easy in a moment to bring him within bounds. Ho goes on to remark that, while " there is no proof that the statements made in the newspapers are true, it is by no means certain that they are utterly without foundation," and that it would not be right when an increase of the allied forces spoken of not to be prepared against them. He encloses a long translation from the English papers of the debate in the House of Commons, and Comments on the notable propositions of sending an expedition up the Yang-tse, occupying Nankin and cutting off the supplies of Pekin through the "broken up" Grand Canal, The Great Council thereupon addressed Sank;k:i lin-sin, and Hang fuh, in a decree dated the 27t h March last, enclosing the ultimatum and of the from the newspapers.
