In Foreign Stocks an improvement of i to 1 has taken place in Egytian of 1868 and Italian Five Per Cents., and Mexicans are 1 higher. Spanish are rather firm. Turkish of both the 1865 issues a shade higher than yesterday. Russian Orel Rail way Shares have declined 1, the present quotations being 481 to 85. In American Securities the only feature is a recovery in Erie Railway Shares of 1, viz., to 27 to 271. Lombardo-Venetian Railway Shares are 201 to 2 4, and Great Luxemburg 114 to 14. In the Indian Railways East Indian Shares are 1 111 to 112, and Scinde 1061 to 107. Grand Trunk of Canada Shares are 151 to 151, and Great Western of Canada 151. French Cable Shares are 16 to 16f. There were no gold operations at the Bank. The Shannon, for the West Indies, has taken out £7,200 in specie, principally silver. The Frankfort advices state that the liquidation for the middle of the month was completed without difficulty, and that the heavy losses incurred by the recent wild speculation were punctually met. It appears to have been ascertained that the shares w hich had been thrown at ruinous prizes on the but rket did not come from frightened speculators, from operators for a fall. Thus French-Aus trian railways had been so much oversold that, on the settling day, Ifl. had to be paid for the loan of e ach share to the end of the month, and, as subse oently there remained some thousand shares which had not been delivered, 311. to 4fl. per share was then T he for the required quantity for the f or t n i g ht. - _ , pe pri ce went up to 360, b ut th i s was for the end of the month.

IMPOSING ON THE MAGISTRATE. —Mary Shaw, A low looking woman, was charged before Mr. Knox with using threatening language to Mrs. Roach, of N 0.22, Pitt-street Tottenham-court-road. The prisoner was brought before Mr. Kuox yesterday afternoon, but as she was not sober she was put back till this morning. It appears that the complainant and the prisonor live in the same house, and yesterday the prisoner, who was drunk, abused the complainant, swore she would have her life, and also burn down the house, and the landlord of the house attended and gave the prisoner a very bad cha racter. The prisoner said she would never come to the court again. Mr. Knox said the prisoner was a gross impostor. A short time ago she came to him with a story that she was in the family way, in great distress, and that her landlord was going to put the broker iu. She said something about a box of baby linen that was going to be seized, and think ing it was ono of those boxes lent her by benevolent societies, ho sent an officer with her to maks inquiries about the baby linen, and to see that she was taken into the workhouse. The officer wont with the prisoLer, and her story turned out from beginning to end a lie. Welsh, the office keeper, said a month ago the prisoner took out a summons against a man, and afterwards came and asked that it might be altered to a warrant, as she would not be able to attend being so near her time. She had been to the court frequently in a state of drunkenness and was very noisy. _ _ . Mr. Knox said the prisoner was a vilo, drunken impostor, and ordered her to find a £2O bail for three month.. THAMES. AN UNSENTIMENTAL MAGIsTRATE.—Hannah Leary, a woman about 30 years of age, of No. 17, Anthony-street, St. Ueorge-in-the-East, was charged before Mr. Benson with stealing a coral necklace, value 65., from John Isaacs, dealer, of Cleveland-street, Mile-end-road. The prosecutor was on his way home last night, and was accosted by the prisoner, who made someovertures to him, which he rejected, and told her to go about her business. She clung to him, and he had some difficulty to get rid of her. After she had loft him he missed a coral necklace. He went after her and gave her into the custody of Walter, a police--constable, No. 40 K It, who conveyed her to the station house. Nothing was found upon her, and the police-constable then wont back to the spot near to which ho had captured the prisoner, and by the light of his bull's eye lantern found the necklace. The prisoner made strong asseverations of innocence, and Mr. Benson said he should commit her fot: trial. She then aet up a loud wailing, wrung her hands, and exclaimed, `• My poor dear husband, he is coming home from sea, and it will break his heartito hear I am in prison.py dear, duar, dear husband! oh, dear ;no !" Mr. Benson—Don't attempt to impose upon me by talk ing about your husband. You are a common prostitute — prowling about to mob men. Stuff and nonsense to talk alout your husband. The prisoner—Oh, sir, lam not a prostitute. I am a married woman. Mr. Benson—Then I sincerely pity your most unfortu nate husband who has got such a vile character for a wife You were walking the streets last night "soliciting pro stitution," in the language of the law, and have robbed this man. You aro committed for trial. BILKING A CABMAN.—John Scanlan, a tall, well-dressed man, was brought up on a wit/rant before Mr. Benson charged with refusing to pay a cab fare. Merrett, an officer of the court, 296 K, arrested the pri soner last night in a beerhouse in Peckham. The prisoner described himself as a builder, of Garsdale-road, Peckham, 38 years of age. Thomas Cooper, a cab driver, said ho drove the prisoner from Paddington to Bow; the fare was 6s. He had ex pended 4s. for a warrant and a summons, and a good deal of money in looking after the prisoner, whose wife had just paid him a sovereign, and he was satisfied. Mr. Benson—You ought to ba ashamed of yourself Mr. Scanlan to be evading payment of the cab fare and not af.pearing to the summons. Mr. Scanlan—l never received it. Mr. Benson—l don't believe you. The summons was left at your house. You have tried to shirk payment, to bilk that poor man. The Prisoner—l am very sorry. lam a gentleman, and this is unpleasant to my feelings. Mr. Benson—You are no gentleman, but a blackguard, to attempt to oheat that poor man of his fare. Now go about your business, and don't sot up any pretences to tho character of a gentleman. WESTMINSTER. EXTENSIVE ENIBEZZLEMEXT.—henry Morrish, late as sistant to Mr. White, baker, of 88, King's-road, Chelsea, was charged with a series of embezzlements. Prisoner's wages in the service amounted to about 225. per week, and it was his duty to take round the bread, and at evening to account for the money received. A few days ago he went out with the broad and never returned, and it was discovered that ho had embezzled several sums of money, £2 12s. from Mr. Charles Dean iu ono day, and other sums amounting to £lO. Phe prisoner, having been duly cautioned by the ma gistrate, pleaded guilty, said nothing in reply to the charge, and when asked if ho had anything to say before son tenco, replied iu the negative, and could give no account of the money. Mr. White said he would not have been hard on the prisoner were it not that he had discovered that iu his last situation prisoner had boon charged with embezzlement and locked up, but the prosecutor did not press the charge against him. Mr. White said a week ago ho came home and said ho had lost £1 10s., and ho forgave him. Mr. Soil° said it was a bad case, and under his recently conferred powers by a now Act of Parliament, sentenced him to six mouths' hard labour. THE SIN; LONDON,.

NEW CLAIM TO THE WICKLOW The . latest and not the least extraordinary claim to this disputed peerage is now made on the part of a child torn some years ago in the Liverpool Workhouse, and efforts are being made to trace the parentage. A communication was yesterday laid before the workhouse committee from a Mrs. Hinson, formerly an officer in the lying-in ward of the Liverpool house, describing the birth of a pauper child, and its subsequent adoption by a lady. Mrs. Higginson re quested permission to examine tho books upon the subject, but the committee declined to grant tho permission until some further information was received. Mr. linger, clerk to the vestry, stated that he was in possession of some information en the subject, which he would lay before the committee if silence were imposed on the representatives of the press. The reporters, however, declined to give any pledge, and therefore the communication was not made. MR. JACOB BRIGHT, 111. P., ON THE RELIGION OF TORIES. Mr. Jacob Bright attended a meeting on Thursday night in support of Sir Edward Watkin's candidature for East Cheshire. In the course of his speech, referring to Mr. Cunliffe Brookes, the Conservative candidate, the hon. member said he always noticed that the Tory party was especially the religious party. It professed to care much more for religion than any other party in the country. In fact, it cared so much for its own religion that it had oven taken the most irreligious means to force it upon others, almost up to this present day, and had visited with penalties and disabilities those who would not accept item)] particular form of religion. lie had sometimes wondered what the religion of the Tory party was. It seemed to bear only a faint resemblance to Christianity, because, as far as he understood Christianity (he did not, of course, judge of the Tories excepting as to their politics), it enjoined equal dealing with all men, and no respect of persons. But the Tory party never obeyed that injunc tion. They were always - defending privilege, always endeavouring to shut out somebody else from some thing which they possessed themselves. Take the question of the franchise. Mr. Brooks was asked whether he would give the same privileges to the ratepayers in the county ar respects voting as they had in the towns. "No, certrinly not," he replied, "they are quite a different lot." The volume containing the evidence given before the) Select Committee on Parliamentary and Municipal Eleo tions was issued on Friday. Tho total amount cf ex penses allowed to witnesses who were examined was £2.18 10s. The volume extends over GOO pages. According to the. Limerick Reporter, resolutions were unanimously agreed to at the Roman Catholic Diocesan Synod of Kilialoe on Monday, in favour of holding meetings throughout tho diocero "to adopt strong matures in sus tainment of tho teraut-right movement." The Pall Mall Gazette is informed that gi Mr. Shir ley, of Loughfca Castle, Monaghan, intends purchasing the whole rent charge of his estates, and presenting it to the new Church body." Mr. Shirley is ono of the Conservative members of the county of Monaghan, having Leon elected at the last election. On Wednesday evening a landblip cccurred at Mr. Johnston's quarry, llighe r robington, which buried two young manarried men, man( d Jein Jonts and Timothy Davis, who were at work in the quvrry. Immediate mea sures wore taken to remove the debris, hut when the bodies wore reached life was extinct. On the. Beverley Election Commission evidence was given on Frrny that in 1857 it was proposed that Walker should pay all the Conservative expenses. The commit,- sloners said there had been scandalous schemes in 1859. Glover was bought cut of the field, and it coat Edwards £2OO. At Bridgewater several uitnesses had been called to provo bribery.

At Strabane petty sessions on Thursday the magis trates were engaged in investigating the cause of the late There were heavy charges against about sixty Cutholicg, but a large number cf Protestants were also charged for assaults, &c. About 200 witnesses have been summoned altegetlur, and the hearing of the cases promiSes to Le a very protracted business. The Corrorat ion of Dublin on Thursday adopted re solutions in raw ur of fixity of tenure for all occupants at. such fair 'cuts and on such terms as may be found uccessary to maintain the rights of property for tlh, lund;ords and the lights of industrial occupancy for tho tenants.

On Thursday the old workmen resumed work at the Denaby Main Colliery, nenr Mexbro', where they have been out since the 3d of March last. 'rho first shift went to work at live o'clock in the morning, and the second at two o'clock. Althoqh over 100 of the old hands are still em ployed at the lit, Le iii feelino The memorial to the late Etta' of CatMe was inaugurated on Thursday. It hasbeett erected at Buliner Hill, near Castle Howard, the residence of the late Earl, and is in the fcrm of a Grecian column. From its site an extensive view of the three ridings of Yorkshire, in which the Earl was so well known and esteenkel, tau be obtained. Them was a diminution in the number of volunteers who left London for Belgium on Friday. Among the corps represented at Charing-cross, Ludgate-hill, and Vic toria stations to-day wore several front the provinces, in cluding Hampshire, Northampton, Oxford, 'Warwickshire, Wilts, and Dorset ; but the metropolitan corps still maintain a proponderance of numbers. The North German Correspondent says that the Prussian military authorities aro said to have expressed their approval of the Martini-Henry rifle, and it is not im probable that experiments will soon be made with it on a largo scale. The now English knapsacks, with which a part of the 2d Ilegimout of Guards has been supplied some months ago, aro favourably mentioned, and likely to be sub kctod to a more cotnpleto trial. Tho Lancet is informed that it is the intention of the Admiralty to hold a medical examination for the entry of naval cadets and navigating cadets at Somerset House for the future, a board being summoned by the director-general for the purpose. This is probably only a stop towards the whole of the admissions to the Eervice being decided by a medical board instead of a single medical cfficer as at pre sent. The Engineer contains an illustration of some pyrometers for various purposes, by Bailey and Co., of Sal ford. The pyrometer is an instrument pointed at the end, which, on being thrust into a hay stack, indicates the tem perature on the dial. Other modifications of their instru ments aro being introduced for indicating rpontaneous com bustion by Messrs. Bailey. One is to test corn in bulk another as a fixture in coal-carrying vessels. The masons of Sheffield have, at a meeting presided over by the mayor, for the purpose of bringing about an amicable settlement of the dispute between masters and men in the building trade, deliberately adopted a resolution in which they decline to s ubmit the question to arbitration. They alleged as a reason that by so doing they should isolate themselves from the 290 lodges forming their national association, by none of which has arbitration ever been adopted. Twenty-five North-German scholars and artists of distinction have been invited by the Viceroy of Egypt to be present at the opening of the Suez Canal. They are to pro ceed to Paris, and from thence they will travel to Egypt with other guests at the expense of the Viceroy. Professor Iferatusen, Dove, Drake, and Richter have received invita tions. Dr. Petermann of Gotha has also been invited. Hussein Pasha, son of the Viceroy of Egypt, has left for Paris to return home for the inauguration of the Canal. The will of the Right Rev. Walter Kerr Hamilton, D.D., Lord Bishop of Salisbury, was proved on the 4th inst., and the personalty sworn under .£14,000. Ills wife, who is the daughter of the late Very Bev. Francis Lear, Dean of Salisbury, receives, beyond her interest in £12,000 under deed of settlenn nt, a legacy of £5OO and a life interest over the residue of his property, with power .to appoint at Ler decease the principal amongst their children, three sons and five daughters, as sho may think proper. The Weekly Register Las the following We have good reason to believe—and we are not speaking with out the book when we make the statement—that ere long three very important announcements w ill be made public by Ministers. Ono of these is a measure to ton.nd very thoroughly the tenant's land tenure in Ireland, which will fully satisfy the peasantry throughout that country. 'rho second is, that au amnesty will be granted to all the political offenders now in prison, under certain condi tions. The last, but certainly not the bast, will ho that the "difficulty" with America has been entirely got over in such a manner that even our sensitive cousins across the Atlantic cannot of to the way the problem has been solved, and that there is no chance whatever of any war between the United Slates and Great Britain. All three announcements will be of the utmost use in trail• quillising Ireland, and promoting the welfare and stability of the whole empire. It is also said, in the best-informed circles, that the Government will support a meastkc t9tutl - 9- duos tho ballot next soolon. SHARE LIST.

Custance was able to ride Bst 71b during the Doncaster week. Royal Oak has been severely blistered on the throat for a cough. We understand that Sir Joseph Hawley did not back Pero Gomez until the night before the race, when through a friend he had a commission out to take 3,000 to 1,000, but the first but obtained was 1,000 to 400. Mr. Herring, the Kingsclere Commissioner, also, on die, invested ..C3OO the same night. Mr Merry, it is said, had not a *billing on the St. Leger until ho inspected the horses, when, disliking Pretender, he took 300 to 100 about Pero Gomez. Mr Caledon Alexander's brood mares will bo sold on Monday next at Tattersall's. Tolson d'Or's victory in the Park Hill Stakes is the twelfth which has bon gained by the Whitewall stables this season. Allegro, tho dam of Stanley, was purchased as a foul 1 Mr. Sadler, and was for two or th roe seasons i u Will 6 Day's at ablos. Tho half-sister to Thunderbolt was tho only lot tlia was put up at Doncaster under the condition to bo ru turned at the end of their racing career. UNDEMIAND.—This stallion was sold at Doncaster, to close a partnership, and was knocked down for 200 gui neas to Mr. Winteringliain. AN UNSEASONABLE CIIANOE.—Afr. Christopher Sykes M.P., was obliged to leave Doncaster in order to give evi dence bcforo the Beverley Election Commissioners. The Grand Stand receipts at Doncaster on the Tuesday were about £3,800, and the St. Leger take swelled them to about £lO in excess of what they were last year. THE WARWICK Cur.—lt is stated that this prize will bo in future retained in name only on the Warwick Septem ber programme, the committee, after several years' failures having resolved to give the value of the cap (200 sovs) in specie for a handicap. Fisherman, the 1,200 guinea colt of the Doncaster sales, was bred by Mrs. Wilkinson, of Neasham Abbey. Thu colt is called after Fisherman, a favourite hound in the Hurworth kennel, of which the late Mr. Wilkinson was master. This is the highest-priced colt of the year, with the exception of Mr. I'Anson's colt by Rataplan out of Borealis, which made 1,250 guineas at York. Sir Tattoo Sykes's yearling "Flint Jack," which made 370 guineas, is called after a celebrated character in the East Biding, who has driven for some years back a large trade in fossils, real and spurious. Ile is generally in trouble, and is at present under lock and key "for his •country's good." Hence the hypothesis that the name was the brevet title of a celebrated millionaire is quite incorrect. RYSHWORTIL—WO aro informed that this horse, who was said to havo broken down, only bit his leg, and is now quite sound, and will be able to fulfil his engagement at Nen castle. Mr. T. Jefferson bought Mr. Newcoinen's chesnut yearling colt Faulpolz, by Loiterer, out of Lalage, by private contract, for 125 guinea; at Doncaster on Thursday. FORTUNIO.—It was reported at Doncaster that this horse broko down in an exercise gallop at Middleham on Thurs day, in consequence of which he was not able to start for the Doncaster Cup. THORMANLY.-Mr. Merry has let this horse to Mr. Vaughan for next season, and he will stand at Middle ton-ono-Row, and cover mares at 50 guineas each. Lord Portsmouth had also been in treaty for him for ho Hurst bourne Stud. Captain Cornish sold Consternation at Doncaster for 450 guineas to E. Weaver, for one of his employers. The same trainer also bought by private contract tho yearling filly by Blair Athol out of Breeze, for 210 guineas. FANNY DRAPE.—This mare retrieved her lost laurels at Brampton by carrying off the first prize (C 8) for hurdle leaping, at Wigton, on Wednesday. She was ridden by young Mulcaster, and took all her leaps in splendid style. Eight competed. Mr. Casson's Redcap also carried off the hackney prize. In a field of twenty-eight, Mr. Bell, of Plumbland, was successful with a four-yr-old for the first prize (XlO 10s.), offered by Mr. Moore, for mares and geldings for field or road. There is said to be "nothing new under the sun," but this doctrine was overthrown at Doncaster. A smart shower took place just before the St. Leger, but the weather "lifted," and the umbrellas were furled onto more. A loud noise was then heard, and it was thought at first that the crowd was chaffing a " Bobby " or hooting a dog, but it turned out that they were only cheering the rainbow, which made its appearance and kept its word, as the many thousands got home after all without a wet jacket. KING'S LYNN RACES.—This meeting came off on Thurs day, and was well patronised by the gentry and people of the neighbourhood. The following aro the results of the events decided :—Railway Plate—Mr Archer's Chow first, Meta second; four ran. Members' Stakes—King of Ilearts first, Evil Eye second. Trial Stakes—Mr Middle ton's The Gift first, Clasp second; four ran. Ladies Plato—Mr Gulliver's Treasurer first, Maid of Orleans second, Maid of Trent third. Sandringham Park Stakes— Mr J. Ilaye's La Belle Jeanne first, Clasp second. Harbin ger third. Match—Maid of Trent beat Chow. PLACE BETS ON CORPORATION STASES.--As three horses ran a dead heat for second place for this race, and many questions may arise as to how Lets should go, we may state that the odds laid against and the amounts staked on either of the dead-heaters should be put together, and that the backer is entitled to receive two-thirds of the amount. Supposing, for instance, one of these three horses had been backed for a sovereign at 5 to 1, and the money staked, the backer has £4 to receive, but if the money was not staked, then his claims would be £3 Gs. Bd. while the layer would be entitled to Gs. Bd., being ono third of time stake money. The net result in either case is a wiu of £3. A similar case to this occurred in the Me tropolitan Stakes, 1864, won by Joco—King Charming, Touch-and-Go, and The Major running a dead heat for second place. THIRD EDITION.
