MONEY MARKET AND CITY NEWS. CITY, Two o'CLoeK. A further small withdrawal of gold—viz., £4,ooo—was reported at the Bank of England yesterday; but the movement, it is thought, will be checked by the supply just arrived from Aus tralia, but which has yet to be delivered. The state of the Exchange and the extensive arrivals of foreign grain will, in all probability, lead to ex t ensive shipments of specie ; but with steady imports from Victoria and the United States, the stock of bullion at the Bank of England is likely to be well supported. No alteration can yet be reported in the general condition of the Money Market. The rates are steadily maintained, and there is a moderate en quiry for the ordinary purposes of trade, although the reports from 'most departments of business are indicative of continued quietude. In the Liverpoool Cotton Market yesterday the transactions were on a limited scale, but prices re mained without change. The sales were only 6,000 bales. No alteration of importance was apparent in the Foreign Exchanges yesterday afternoon. To-day the final instalment of 20 per cent. is due on the Imperial Brazilian 41 per cent. loan of 4373,000. The Magdalena, from the Brazils, has arrived at Lisbon en route for this country, with £3,600 in ° pecie. The Market for Public Securities opened this Morning with a buoyant appearance in consequence of the lett er a dd resse d b y th e E mperor t o C oun t p e rtngoy, and as it induced buyers to come forward, an advance of per cent. took place. Consols being 93 1 - I for money, and 931 4 for the account ; this improvement, however, has led to a few sales in realisation of profits, and the upward tendency has consequently received a check. The New 3 per Cents, and the Reduced have advanced to 93i 941-; India Stock is firm at 2181 ; and Bank ditto at 2291 and 230; India Loan is 1041; and Exchequer Bills have improved to 3s. to 6s. prem. Increased buoyancy has been exhibited in the Foreign Stock Market, and a fair amount of busi ness is recorded. Turkish 6 per Cents. have im proved to 761 to 77 ; ditto New, 61 to 62 ; the 4 per Cents. to 101 ex div. ; Russian to 108 ; Mexican to 211 ; Spanish to 481 ; ditto Deferred to 391 1; ditto Passive to 211 1, and Danish 3 per Cents. are Marked 84. The Ocean Marine Insurance Shares are 21 prem. ; the Thames and Mersey, 4 1 prem. ; and the Universal, } I. prem. Considerable activity was apparent in the Rail- Way Share Market, and a further improvement of about 2 to 1 per cent. took place in prices. The chief feature, however, has been an advance of about 3 to 3-t per cent. in Midland Stock, owing to the announcement that the dividend will be at the rate of 6i per cent. per annum. Caledonian, Lon don and Blackwall, Great Northern, and North- Eastern (Berwick) have improved ss. to 10s. ; Great Western, North-Western, and South- Eastern, 155.; and Lancashire and Yorkshire, £l. Bristol and Exeter declined 10s. The Foreign and Colonial undertakings have also exhibited more firmness. Lombardo-Venetian realise par. Grand Trunk of Canada have ad vanced 155.; Great Western of Canada, 55.; and East Indian, 10s. Joint-Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares have been moderately active, with little change of im portance to record in values. London Joint-Stock are at 291 30 ; Union of Australia, 411. Royal Mail Steam have declined to 491. The shares of the United Kingdom Telegraph Company are quoted at ?. prem. ~, BRITISH FUNDS—CLOSING PRICF,S, Bank Stock . % per Cent.

The scene of this dreadful murder has throughout the whole of this morning been visited by thousands, and the landlord of the beer shop, The Stag, adjoining the house in which the murders were committed, has in consequence been doing a thriving trade. A number of constables of the P division of the Metropolitan Police have been stationed in front of the premises, No. 16, Manor place, to prevent the obstruction of the thoroughfare; but notwithstanding this arrangement, large groups of persons assemble in the road and stand for hours, alternately gazing up at the second floor window and discussing the " latest particulars" relative to the murder. Of course the most absurd and ridiculous rumours are current, but the only facts at present known are those which appeared in Th. Sun of yesterday, in the examination of the accused at Lambeth Police -court. On inquiry at the principal police-3tation of the P divi sion, our reporter learned that the relatives of the girl, Mary Wells Streeter, had arrived in town and identified the body, who lies with the other three:unfortunat e persons at the Newington Workhouse. The police are busily engaged making inquiries respecting the prisoner, but the information collected will not be made known until it is given before the Coroner at the inquest, Which is appointed to be held to-morrow morning. The prisoner firmly adheres to the story he told upon being taken into custody, and denies that he was ever seized with insanity. THIS DAY'S MABEE: CORN EXCHANGE. We had a very limited supply of home-grown w heat on offer in to day's mark e t. For both red and wh i te th e de mand was far from acti ve; nevertheless, Monday's prices were supported. The imports of foreign wheat continue on a liberal scale, nevertheless holders were very fi rm, at full quotations. Floating cargoes of grain mai n t a i ned their previous value. The barley trade was firm, and late currencies were well supported. Malt, however, moved off slowly, at late rates. Most descriptions of oats were taken to a fair extent, at last week's decline in value. The arrivals from abroad still continue on a full average scale. Beans and peas were a fair inquiry, at late rat es. The flour trade ruled steady, on former terms. ARRIVALS THIS WEEK. Wheat. Barley. Malt. Oats. Fl our.

THE INDIAN ARINIY.—A parliamentary return, issued yesterday, states that 93 non-commissioned officers and 233 privates of the late East India Company's armies, took their discharge with pensions as time-expired men, subsequently to the order whereby they had granted to them the benefit of two years' service on account of their not having already taken their discharge under the above +, an +in n rl order of tho env ern nr trpn are 1 _ With All npn . e, at came atilt ipper stair litary eef of ridge right Hon. a Sir ;, the ii Sir John r Jas. reton, l Col. ferent tcalfe, Lord resent L coin )rs of 711 =ease )ra this 2.

COURT OF CHANCERY. !Before the Lord Chancellor.) THE NAMUR AND LIEGE RAILWAY COMPANY Y. PONS- I'ORD-APPEAL JUDGMENT. This is an appeal from a decree of Vice-Chancellor Sir William Page Wood. The suit was instituted by the plaintiffs to repossess them selves of three thousand £2O scrip certificate shares in their own company, deposited by them with Messrs. Swaine and Bovil, and by them handed over to the defendant Ponsford. Ponsford claimed to have a lien on the shares for money due to him by Swaine and Bovil, to secure which the shares had been pledged. The Vice-Chancellor decreed that Ponsford had no lien on the shares for the specific sum of £2,25Q. From this decision the present appeal was brought. The Lord Chancellor, on considering the terms of the deposit, and minutely examining the accounts and bill transactions between the parties and the evidence produced on both sides, came to the conclusion that Swaine and Bovil had not paid the bill for £2,250, for the pay ment of which the shares were originally deposited. And that the accounts showed that this sum of £2,250 was still due to the defendant Ponsford. The Lord Chancellor re versed the decree of the Vice-Chancellor, and dismissed the plaintiff's bill with costs COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. Mr. Commissioner Fano was the commissioner of the day, but there was Duly one case—the examination meeting of a person named Coutes, who had carried on business as a draper in Bridge-street, Lambeth. The debts were very small—about £350. The bankrupt passed without opposition. SECONDARIES' COURT. (Befura Mr. Pato • nd a Jury.) 'AXTRAORDINARY FRACAS 1113 TWEEN AN INSURANCE BROKER AND SHIP OWNER.-DAM)-GliS £15.-PHILLIPS , V. DELANY. - This was a writ of inquiry, to assess the damages, laid at £5OO, in a case of assault, defendant having suffered judg ment to go by default. Mr. Silley, for the plaintiff, said his client was an insu rance broker, of Lloyd's and Cornhill, and defendant a ship owner, of Duncan-terrace, Islington. The parties had had various business transactions together, and plaintiff had oc casion to write to defendant for money for various premiums of insurance. Defendant sent 120, and plaintiff wrote for more money. To this letter defendant made no an swer, and again plaintiff wrote. Not obtaining any replies plaintiff called upon defendant on Mon day, May 1. Defendant pleaded illness as the cause of his not answering the letters. Plaintiff then said, " Oh, you could get out on Sunday, surely you could manage to reply t• me.' A conversation ensued about the business, and defendant accused plaintiff of an intention to ruin him. This being repeated, plaintiff said it was an untruth, a false hood, or a lie, and defendant flew at him, striking him such a severe blow in the eye that his handkerchief was covered with blood. Of coursa plaintiff was prevented from follow ing his business, and could not show at Lloyd's. Under these circumstances the jury would say what damages they would award plaintiff. The plaintiff was called, and bore out the observations at his counsel, adding that when he was struck defendant called out, "Dare to give an Irishman the lie in his oivn house." Defendant's daughter came into the room and said, "Oh father, you ought to be ashamed of yourself." Plaintiff, at the time of the assault, had a large balance against de fendant. Defendant appeared in person, and cross-examined the plaintiff about business affairs. Plaintiff had, a short time before the assault, injured his arm, so that, if he had felt disposed, he could not have re taliated. He admitted giving the lie, defendant having accused him of keeping back policies. Did not kick defen dant, who called out, " Get out of my house, you vaga bond." The surgeon proved the extent of the injury, and plain tiff's clerk said that the absence of plaintiff from business considerably injured him, Defendant said he had not come here to justify the as sault. He was very sorry for it. He threw himself upon the mercy of the jury. He had expressed his regret for this occurrence, and thought his apology would be accepted, but it had not. He was then sworn and cross-examined, and the learned secondary summed up. The jury gave plaintiff £l5 damages. POLICE INTELLIGENCE -(THIS DAY.) SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

The Tigris RiN re r Navigation Improvement Bill was read a third time and p assed. The Brandon E states Bill was considered and ordered for third reading ATTORNEYS, SOLICITORS, PROCTORS, AND CERTIFICLA.TED CONVEYANCERS BILL. The committee divided on the motion to report progressi when there appeared — Ayes Noes Majority —92 The question was then put that the clause should be read a second time, when there appeared— For the clause Against it . -84 Majority The clause was accordingly lost. Mr. SHERIDAN said he felt it his duty again to move that the chairman report progress, as he felt that the pre sent proceeding was an attempt on the part of the metro politan members to impose taxation upon the whole of the country. Visoount ENFIELD appealed to the hon. member for Dudley not to persevere in his motion for reporting pro gress. After a few words from Sir J. SHELLEY and Mr. DEEDtkit the motion was negatived withbut a division. Sir J. SIIELLEY moved an additional clause with re• spect to the parish of St. Paul, Covent-garden. Mr. HENLEY objected to the clause, which was even• tually negatived without a division. Mr. HUBBARD then moved the following clause " No order for payment of any sum of money shall be made by any district board upon any parish or place enu merated in schedule (B) to the act firstly above re cited, except for the amount of expenses actually incurred, or about to be incurred, within each parish or place re spectively for which a general rate or a lighting rate may, under the one hundred and fifty-eight and one hundred and sixty-first sections of the said act, be raised and levied, or for an amount of sewerage expenses equal to the outlay incurred or about to be incurred on behalf of each parish or place, or for an amount named in a precept from the Metropolitan Board of Works as charged upon the specific parish or place; and if any dispute arise as to what are expenses or outlay incurred within or on behalf of any parish or place, the parish or place on which any order shall have been made for payment may, within two months after the service of such order, appeal to the Metropolitan Board of Works, which shall hear both sides in open court, and whose decision upon the matter shall be final. Mr. AYRTON thought the clause would in effect exempt the St. Katherine's Dock Company from the pay ment of its proportion of the rates, and he therefore should oppose its addition to the bill, Sir F. KELLY said the question raised by this clause was whether each parish should pay its own portion of ex penses under this bill, or whether a number of parishes should be formed into a district, and a general rate be levied thereon. Sir J. SHELLEY said the question was a simple one. The present bill did not make any alteration in the mode of levying rates by the Metropolitan Board of Works, but the amendment of the lion. member opposite proposed alte rations of a very extensive nature. He objected that such an extensive alteration in the system of taxation should be smuggled in at the present stage of the bill. He thought it the dut y of the house to support the recommendation of the select committee up stairs and reject the clause. Mr. SHERIDAN supported the amendment. • Mr. lIUBI3ARD said he was asking for nothing novel or unjust in the amendment he proposed. He was sur prised that he should be charged with smuggling in the amendment. After a few words from Mr. E. JAMES and Sir F. KELLY. The committee divided on the question that the additional clause be read a second time, when there appeared— . 114 . -106 2.11.101 1 16 7.4.0 541 17s 12.13.9 94 1116 8.12 4.8.8 1.8.6 9i 11 5s 9.18.9 14 10.6.7 12s lE.

It appears that Sergeant Silverton, of the C division, hav ing received information of the robbery, went to the hotel, and having questioned all the servants, at length suspected the boy and went into his room, and under the carpet, which was nailed down, found the pins and studs now produced. He asked the prisoner if he had taken the articles, and he denied all knowledge of them. In a box he found about 100 cigars, some paper belonging to his master, several knives, &c. After a further search, Sergeant Silverton found behind a water tank a packet of notes, consisting of two £5 notes, eight £lO notes, four £2O notes, one £5O, a cheque for £2O 14s. BJ., one for £l4, and three others. Sufficient evidence being given for the purpose, a remand at the request of the sergeant was granted. THAMES. AN HONEST FRlEND.—Frederick Merchant, a rather genteel young man, was brought before Mr. Yardley on a charge of fraud. Lawrence Burgess, 100 11, who had charge of the case said that several persons had accused the prisoner of de frauding them, but none of them were in attendance. Mr. Yardley—Then the prisoner must be discharged. Inspector Dendy, of the II division—lt is a new system of fraud, your wors'iip. Mr. Yardley—For very small amounts Inspector Dendy—,Yes, sir; but he had carried on his system of fraud to a very great extent. He has been in the habit of taking bottles to licensed victuallers and saying, " I left 2d. on this last night," and obtaining that amount, the bottles only being worth a halfpenny. The prisoner has done this in 30 places. Mr. Yardley—lt is surprising that publicans, who are generally very sharp, should be so exceedingly:green as to give 2d. for a halfpenny bottle. It only shows they exact a ralich larger deposit on bottles than they are actually worth. Inspector Dendy—The prisoner has been very successful in this mode of fraud. Mr. Yardley—The publicans Can soon correct that by only asking for a deposit the real worth of the bottle. Is there any one here ? Inspector Dendy—No, your worship. Mr. Yardley—Discharge him, then. Inspector Dendy—The prisoner carried on the same game in the city, and was very successful. He had a month's imprisonment for it. Mr. Yardly recommended, if a bottle in which liquor was served was only worth a halfpenny, to receive a half penny deposit upon it ; and he would also recommend the prisoner to apply his talent to some useful purpose, more particularly as lie had some originality. The Prisoner--Thank your Worship. He then left the court. THIS DAY'S SHIPPING. LONDON, Aug. I.—Wind this day at noon—South- West ; light breeze, and fine weather.

The annual regatta of this celebrated club commenced yesterday at Cowes, with the contest for the Prince Con sort's Cup, by cutters belonging to the Royal Yacht Squadron. The day broke cloudy, with light winds from W.S.W. to N.W., and with little promise of a sailing breeze. Off Ryde the Aurora and Zouave, with the re nowned Audax and a number of other yachts, were under way, and proceeding towards Cowes Roads to witness the struggle of the cutters for the cup. Off in deep water, the Marquis of Downshire's ship-yacht Sylphide, in tow of a steam tug, was on her way to the same spot. Cowes Roads presented an animated spectacle, upwards of 60 craft bear ing the burgee of the Royal Yacht Squadron being at an chor, besides vessels of every description or rig belonging to other clubs. Her Majesty's royal paddle yacht the Vic toria and Albert was lying at her moorings with coloured ensigns at her mastheads, and the graceful little Fairy, with the royal standard flying at the main, was steaming across for Southampton water, all lending life and anima tion to the scene. Five cutters were entered for the race, but one of these, the Marina, withdrew from the contest. The four which started were the Names. Tons. Flags. Osprey .... 59 .. Blue, white, blue. Brunette .... 70 .. Red and white, chequered. Arrow .... 102 .. Blue, with silver arrow. Lulworth 80 Red and white, diagonal. By the mode of measurement adopted by the club, the Osprey measured 79 tons, the Brunette 85, the Arrow 145, and the Lulworth 115. According to this scale the allow ante of time was as follows : s. Arrow allows Lulworth Arrow allows Brunette Arrow allows Osprey Lulworth allows Brunette ..... 7 30 Lulworth allows Osprey Brunette allows Osprey The course was from the starting vessel off the Royal Yacht Squadron Castle (Club - house) round the Warner Light vessel, returning to the westward and passing to the northward of Calshot Light vessel and the Brambles, round a mark vessel off Egypt, and thence between the station vessel and the Castle ; twice round. The Arrow arrived at the winning point at 6 42, and the Lulworth at 6 53. The others had no chance. ARRIVAL OF HEENAN IN AMERICA.—A letter from New York says :—The arrival of Heenan, in the Vagderbilt, on Saturday, was signalized by a ludicrous ovation on the part of the " roughs," but failed to produce the sensation which his friends had expected.

Mr. MO WB BAY moved the following clause :—" All parsons who, p re viously to the passing of the act, shall have beon duly . lmitted and enrolled attorneys and soli citors of the cou r t, of the counties palatine of Lancaster or Durham, or eitl - Le of them; or who shall be admitted and enrolled attorne rs of the High Court of Chancery, and in her Majesty's gtxperior courts of law at Westminster, in pursuance of the provisions of this act, without farther exami n ation, upon the payment of suck fees and duty as - by law required, provided always that such admission and ( rolment be perfected on or before the first day of Trinity 17( , rm, 1861." Tho clause w• L s read a second timo and added to the bill. The CHAIRIL A N was then ordered to report progress and the house resur a ed. Mr. HENL F :Y remarked that the bill had passed through commi tee in a manner somewhat hurried, without he would ventu r e to say many members of the house know ing what was r t ew in the bill, and he hoped the hon. gen tleman who hai i charge of the bill would consent to have it reprinted. tr, hear.) Mr. MALIN 3 said the bill had passed through commit tee very unexp , &3tedly, and he would advise his hon. friend who had charge I. of the bill to adopt the suggestions that had been just Ide. Mr. MURK A. Y said he had no objection to the course proposed. The bill was • t hen ordered to be reprinted. VOTES FOI DISQUALIFIED CANDIDATES. On the order v f the day for going into committee on this bill, Mr. HENLI V. I expressed a hope that the hon. member would withdrm r the bill. It was quite clear that the mea sure would not I bi ;come law during this year, as it could not be said to be a . very urgent bill. Under these circum stances, ho rnm re( 1 that the house go into committee on the bill that day thi months. The SOLIC [1 'OR-GENERAL quite concurred with the right hon. g ntleman that at that period of the session there was no prt )8 pest of the bill being taken by the House of Lords, and he la oped theywould not be pressed to proceed further with the 13 ill this session. (Hear.) After a few rerc .arks from Mr. BUTT, The order was d ischarged, and the bill withdrawn. METROPOLIT/ I.N AND LOCAL MANAGEMENT Ayes Noes Majority The clause was rejected. Mr. CAVE moved an addition to the clauses of the bill exempting all property which at the time of the pass ing of the said first recited act was not liable to be rated for paving expenses from all rates to be hereafter made, so far as respects any paving expenses. The hon. gentleman said the object of the amendment was merely. to restore the law to what it was before the Local Management Act was passed. Mr. AYRTON said if the Dock Company felt aggrieved it was their duty to have gone before the committee which sat to hear objections against the bill. All docks along the banks of the Thames contributed to the rates, and as he looked upon the Dock Company as a combination of warves, he thought they ought to contribute to the rates. After a short discussion, in which Mr. Bovill, Sir S. Graham, and Sir J. Shelley took part, Mr. CAVE withdrew the first portion of the clause. Sir G. C. LEWIS trusted that as there were other amendments to this bill, and as the time had so far ad vanced, the house would allow the bill to pass its present stage; and the other amendments could be moved upon the bringing up of the report. After a short discussion this course was agreed to, and the chairman reported the bill with amendments. AUGMENTATION OF SMALL BENEFICES (IRE LAND) BILL.

THE OLD BLUES.—It will be remembered that meeting was held about a month since, at the London Tavern, to form a rifle corps from among those pupils edu cated at Christ's Hospital; but as so few names were en tered as candidates for admission, and on account of the many other difficulties which beset the formation of the corps the committee thought it advisable to accept the offer of Viscount Ranelagh to take them into his corps, the South Middlesex, and make them a separate company, until such time as the Old Blues were sufficiently strong to form a dis tinct corps of their own. The members now muster in pleasing numbers for drill in the grounds of Christ's Hos pital. The uniforms are finished, and wait only for the buttons to be cast ; the dress is dark gray, with blue facings and a narrow edging, a round collar, and cuff o f red. The cap is the same as worn by the South Middlesex Rifles, with the addition of a narrow band of blue, much resembling the uniform of the Eton Volunteers. developed, g.eneya a ll n y a it th ia e THE CROPS IN NORFOLK AND SUFFOLK.—The part on wheats are presenting, on the whole, a a nd f b a t v ht o e ur l a ow bl e e r appear ance in Norfolk.

On comparing these rates with the English Mint price of £3 17s. 101 d• per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is nearly 2-10ths per cent. dearer in Paris than in London. By advice & f rom i Hamburg the price of gold is 423 per mark, and th e s h or t exchange on London is 9.41per,L1 sterling. Standard gold at the English Mint Price is therefore nearly 1-10th per cent. dearer in London than in Hamburg. The course of ex change at New York on London for bills at 60 days' sight is lost to 110 per cent., which, when compared with the Mint par between the two countries, shows that the ex change is in favour of England ; but, after making allow -. ,f,r, Ann:ma _ n£_tranannrt _iu, d __difference _interns& AC'. r AMENDMENT BILL. Upon the motio n for the further consideration of this bill in committee, Mr. BRADY a ontended that the operation of the mea sure was unjust t 3 some parishes, and that it gave powers to the Board of W orks of a most arbitrary character, which they ought neve] • to possess, and which might be exerted most prejudically to the parishes. Under these circum stances he felt it his duty to resist by every means' in his power the progres sof this bill. He moved that it be con sidered a second t •ime this day six months. Colonel FRE NCH seconded the amendment. He thought it unnecessary they should waste their time in considering a bill which they could not hope would pass the other house. I his session. Mi. lIENL E Y supported the amendment, adopting the view of the last.; I speaker. The hon. gentleman then went through the ai ai mdments on the paper, and asked the house would it be use if al to consume time in discussing them there when they cot 1.1( 1 not be considered in another place. Sir G. C. LEI VIS pointed out that this was substantially a private bill, a nd had been fourteen days before a com mittee of the ho )use, and the promoters and opponents had been at:great e xpense in supporting and opposing it, all which expenst N time, and trouble would be thrown away if they refused t( ;I consider it. He thought, if there was no serious objectim ito the principle of the bill, they might pass it this session.. Mr. TITE a ated he brought the bill in last session, and it had been fu ll y and fairly before all the vestries, and their suggestion ar A objection had been fully considered. The bill had been. 14 days before a committee, who had heard about 30 cow io .el in reference to it, and the bill was neces sary to facilil is to the operation of the metropolitan board. Mr. LIDD ;LL suggested that the supporters of the bill should aster to in whether the other house would consider the bill if it lis .ssed this house. Mr. LOCI Cl E supported the bill in its entirety. Mr. E. JA .1 lES thought they ought to go into committee and see if it \vi is practicable to get through the bill, and do so if possible,.: Ind thus show that the house was prepared to perform its duty. Mr. MALIii ; - S said, seeing the consideration and sifting the bill had ho id, and its great urgency, he thought the house would d o well to consider it.
