MOIV EY MARKET AND C ITY NEWS'. CITY, Two O'CLOCK. The Bank of England return completed to the 25th inst. shows some rather favourable features. The bullion, owing to the recent arrivals and the diminution in the shipments to the East, has been slightly augmented. The reserve of notes exhibits an addition of more than a quarter of a million. In the public deposits there has been a large in crease, but the private deposits, as well as the active circulation, shows a falling off. The other securities consequent upon the easy state of the Money market and the less active demand for dis count accommodation, have been reduced to the extent of about a quarter of a million sterling. In the other items there is little change of importance to notice, and they will be seen in the subjoined table Active Circulation .. 221,222,175 Decrease .. 167,120 Bullion 17,407,969 Increase 212,001 Rest 3 , 219 , 964 Increase ..

INTRODUCTION OF GAS TO HONG-RoNG.---We glad to learn that th ere i s some prospect of H ong _ are K on being li g ht e d b y gas, a proposition to t h at effect having bee g n made by an Ameri can compan y, w hich has already intro- Seed gas to Mauritius and the Havannah; This proposal j ". ,1 been sent into the local government, but it will require te, be sent home before an answer can be given, and we un eerstand that the terms asked are rather high, having pro ably been drawn up in ignorance of the price of coal here. It has been remarked that the introduction of gas would be dangerous, owing to the probable carelessness of Chinese 4er vants, but there is no ground for the fear. The_ proba bility is that the Chinese would be very careful in the t he atter—more so at least than the Indians of Calcutta and negroes of Havannah, where no catastrophe has ensued h em the use of gas.—China Mail.

LAW INTEL . WHO IS TO WIN THE DERIIY? THE DERBY PROPHECIES. The following are Tn . n DERBY "prophecies" of the principal sporting journals : " Observer" of Bell's ;Life gives Pnomrs ED LAND, with the expectation of seeing Iklusjid and Gamester his imme diate followers. "Rhyming Richard" of Bell's Life goes for MARION ErrE, thus-- "The Land" is beat I his backers' "eyes With Idle tears are wet ;" One name is ringing to the skies, That name is MARIONETTE! " Harlequin" of Bell's Life says : The Derby's won—THE PROMISED LAND i 8 one ! ENFIELD t2(.70, and TRUMPETER three have run "The Lay of the Tout" of Bell's Life goes for VOLCANO in the following strain : _. _ Ticket of Leave, Old Robert, Enfield, I advise you not to back, But R eynard's sure to run r i g ht we ll w i t h F rench upon his back. Thus I've rather held it better to go through them one by one, Than to give a host of " cockboats," like the " Tizer" or the "Sun." Having dipped into the future, far as ever I could get, I will tell you (you hav e l o t s o f ti me to w i n a fortune yet), For on the judge's board I see, VOLCANO . (Ashinall) one, ELECTRIC next; then, perhaps, REYNARD—farewell, I've done! "Touchstone" of the Era places the first three in the following order : Promised Latid. Musjid . , % 2 Trumpeter. The " Stable Mouse" of the Era says, " The blue riband of the turf for 1859 will decorate THE PROMISED LAND. " Votes," of the Morning Advertiser, gives Promised Land; Electric, and Cavendish ; and although " Argus," of the Morning Post, has not yet given his prophecy, there is no doubt but he will follow suit anwn.gst the supporters of Promised Land and Trumpeter, as every thing from the Days' stables always finds favour in his eyes ; sad very likely he may couple Musj s id with the two above named. " gentinel" of the Sporting Life, in summing up, says : " 1 fancy the finish will be confined to Promised Land, Musjid, Trumpeter, Marionette, Defender, and Glenbuck, from which I should give the preference to Musan, or the best of John Day's lot." " Record," of the Sporting Life, in his " Derby Dream," says—" I first dreamt that the proprietors of one Sporting life were so pleased that they tipped me a twenty pound note. Now I'll go to Epsom, dream't I. I then dreamed that I stepped over to Hoares', the l',ankers, for gold for the note. The cashier suspiciously ar..ks what I want gold for, so I whispered him, "I'm Record," I want it to spend it. " I beg your pardon," (I drOamq) he said, gave me the gold, and very politely wisbod me a pleasant day. I then stumped up Chancery-lane, :Tossed Holborn, and (still dreaming, you know) asked an old friend for his horse and trap to go to Epsom in. "Certainly, with pleasure," said he, and forthwith his little black mare was harnessed to the dog -cart. Well,in I got, drove home, and found Mrs. Record,' and the two little R's waiting. I handed them in, jumped up myself, turned the mare's head southward, and (still dreaming) off we went. " Wo-o, gently lass, there's plenty of both time and work for you ; take it easy, my gal." On we went over Vauxhall-bridge, through South Lambeth, turning sharp round at the Swan at Stockwell, through Clapham and Mitcham to Tooting, where I pulled up with the mare full of go. We all had breakfast, Puss's mouth being washed out with a pint of good old ale, and (still dreaming, understand) away again we went. Lor, how the little black mare did pull and trot, she seemed to glory in the exhilarating run. We passed butchers, bakers, pubs., swells, and everything. " There goes ' Record' and Puss," cried everybody. " Yes," answered I (still dreaming), " here we do go, and I only wish we had the black Bess colt trying against us. We'd Derby him, wouldn't we, Pussy ?" On, on, we rattled. Turpin's Ride to York was nothing to it. Into Epsom town, up the chalky hilly little road on to the course, put up the mare, and (still dreaming), right into the ring I go, and take 3 to 1 to a fernier about Trumpeter of F— B—tt. Then, after twice asking, the eighteen runners, are fairly started for the Derby; round Tattenham-corner they come like a flash of greased lightning—The Land, Muajid, Glen luce, Cavendish, Actaeon, are all roared out in turn. But I am fascinated by and keep my eye on a certain purple cap that is gradually creeping up from the rear; the cap gains a clear length and a-half at the road ; this gain is doubled at the back end of the Stand, the jockey now gathers him self and horse up—raises his whip—down it comes—the thwack is heard all over the din and roar—the purple cap is seen high in the air, it rushes past them _ all, and the Derby of 1859 is won by ALPRED DAY ON TRUMPETER. I then (still dreaming) go up to F. B. for my £4O, and, " Why, what little game are you up to now ?" is squalled in my ears. l open my eyes, and find "alas I that it is all a dream !" "Brevity" of the Weekly Times prefers PROMISED LAND, TRUMPETER, and PHANTOM, and says :—" Those of your readers who have followed the advice I always gave, and backed The Promised Land to win, and Trumpeter for a win and place, will have made the best investment I can see for the Derby of 1859." The Sunday Times says :—'The success of Promised Land is deemed by many persons—sound and practical judges, too—to be a foregone conclusion. We have, however, stated our reasons for withholding our confidence from him, and the arguments which we have used cannot readily be disproved. Only his success can convict us of an error of judgment. We shall, therefore, have the temerity not even to assign him a place. Our Derby Day-dream shapes itself into this form : Trumpeter . 1 Defender 9 Actaeon Close upon their heels may be Musjid, Electric, and Bal namoon," The Review, after analysing the respective merits of those likely to start, sums up thus :—" We have now waded through the list of those that have the semblance of a pros pect of responding to Mr. Hibburd's mandate, and are still of the opinion, expressed by us for weeks back, that the great eharapien of Wednesday next will be furnished by 0 NA of the DAYS ; but in the present state of affairs we will not venture confidently to assert which of the twain ; it would be folly to do so, though we are inclined to fancy that it will be William Day, with his PROMISED LAND. If it should happen that the brothers are to be vanquished, pro bably the victor may be found in ELECTRIC. The Field favours PROMISED LAND, and remarks : " Many changes will of course take place before the long looked for day arrives, but our present opinion is that THE PROMISED LAND will win the Derby ; and we should not be surprised to find that hard work and hard ground had caused Trumpeter to sound a retreat,' and to see Alfred Day mounted on the crack next Wednesday. Enfield is our pick from the outside division ; some people say he is a roarer—we have not heard him. Gaspard will run for ward. We have now looked through the list, and fancy there will be about 31. The sporting prophet of The Sun has gone to Epsom to "take stock" of the different Derby candidates, and will give his opinion to our readers on Monday or Tuesday. THIS DAY'S SHIPPING.

COURT (before the Lord 0ki,11€6114 ArrOintEr.GEZIERAL V, clumßErts--AtTdriiy.atf4tßAL V. RU :S. These causes came on to be spoken to on to minutes. The Solicitor-General, Sir Hugh M'Almoi Cairns, Q.C., addressed a few observations to his lordshipn the form of inquiry proposed to be adopted in this 'case. l was proposed last term to try the case before a jury, and iues were ac cordingly prepared to ascertain the right of thCrown to the alvins of the sea shore opposite the defendats' lands at Llannelly, South Wales. The learned cowl contended that Mr. Rees was excluded from this Ingo , in restx.ct that his interest had been already disposed oby his lord ship. Mr. Reech submitted that Mr, Rees was atitled to be heard before the jury. The Lord Chancellor considered that Mr. Res had been already fully heard and his cause disposed of, and that he was not entitled to be heard again. His lordshipvas anxious to save expense to all parties. The Solicitor-General then observed that the,ase would be better disposed of by a judge at chambers thin by ajury. The learned counsel contended that the case should be re mitted to the Master of the Rolls, to take the Ividence of engineers and witnesses as to the use of the sea fore above and below the medium line, and the natural cr artificial alteration of the shore or high-water mark oWosite the defendants' lands, by the old and neW works cf the de fendants. Mr. James, Q.C., and Mr. Giffard, Q.C., wer► at first disposed to prefer issues with special directions; but, con sidering the great expense of trial by jury and uncertainty of obtaining a true verdict, it was ultimately agreed to send the case to the Master of the Rolls to be disposed of on the evidence already taken by him on the points in dispute between the parties, with liberty to apply. The Lord Chancellor considered that this was the best way of disposing of the case, to save expense to all parties, and remitted the case to the Master of the Rolls accordingly. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT. (Before Vice-Chancellor Sir John Stuart.) JUDGMBNT-FRAZER V. THOMSON. His Hondur the Vice-Chancellor said—This is a suit by the assignees of the bankrupt to set aside an indenture of settlement by the husband and wife in November, 1856, on the ground of fraud against the creditors of the bankrupt. So far as the settlement included the property of the bank rupt himself, unless it can be supported by the considera tion of marriage, the evidence of the precise state of hh affairs at that time was so strong that it could not stand ; but the policy of the law • has given a paramount importance to the consideration of marriage (unless the marriage is a mere fraudulent contrivance to defeat the claims of creditors), that both in law and equity such deeds are supported. They all support the settlement of the husband's property, whether the wife was in the know= ledge of his embarrassed circumstances previous to entering into a bona fide honest marriage or not. So it was held in the case of Champton v. Cotton, 17 Vessey ; Arbuthnot v. Miller, 25 Simons ; Smith v. Giffard, 1 vol. Collard. But if the marriage is not bona fide, and entered into for the purpose of withdrawing the husband's pro perty from his creditors, the law is the revvrse, and such connivance cannot be supported, e- d was fount in the case of Columbine v. ?mei. His Hon our considered that this marriage was a bona ,fide marriage, and did not fall under the operation of the 12th and 13t1 sections of the Bankrupt Act. The wife before marriage advanced her husband £l,OOO to carry on his precarious business. The marriage was regularly solemnised, and their furniture was publicly carted through the streets of Liverpool to her house by one of the witnesses, and no steps were taken by any of his creditors to secure it. His Honour dismissed the plaintiff's bill with costs. SHERIFFS' COURT. CItARTERERS AND SHIPOWNERS.-ROSS V. DATHIE. This was an action to recover £l3 58. for 60 tons of bal last, alleged to have been ordered by defendant. Mr. Buchanan, for plaintiff, said that the ballast had been ordered by a person to be supplied to a certain ship, and defendant was the charterer of the ship. The party who ordered the ballast was agent to defendant. This was denied on the other hand, and his Honour in quired where was the captain ? Mr. Buchanan—He is upon his voyage, but will be home very shortly. His Honour—You had better take an adjournment for a short time, as the captain appears to be the only person who can throw any light on the matter. REFUSAL TO COMMIT—THE TALLY STSTEM. In a number of tally cases which came before the court, his Honour made some very strong remarks upon the sub ject of the charges. He thought the poor got Bs. 6d. worth of goods for 21s.—that a system was general of dragging a string of poor people to the court for the purpose of getting costs. Now he was determined not to allow costs in this matter, for it was making a good profit out of the court in addition to that made on the goods. In one case his honour refused to commit, as the defendant had shown himself to be without means. The proceedings in the courts of law at Westminster, this morning, were entirely devoid of interest. The Court of Queen's Bench was occupied hearing the arguments in a cause for the infringement of a patent for making metallic capsules for bottles, &c. In the Exchequer the cause before the Court was whether certain buildings sold at a public auction had been correctly described; and in the Court of Common Pleas the part-heard case of "Mackie v. Faker" was being proceeded with. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. -('HIS DA E MANSION-110r, SE. ROBBERY Or AN EMPLOYEa.—Francis Ferris, a car penter's workman, in the employment of Mr. Gleston, of Blackheath, builder, w',*,s charged with stealing 49 lbs. of lead under the follo - ,ving circumstances : Policeman James Fawkes, C 112, deposed that on the previous a'jernoon about three o'clock he saw the prisoner in BP:steheap with a wonderfully bulky protruberance 4 11 -but the body, and from the peculiarly stooping posture in which, he walked suspected that he had something very heavy Concealed in his trousers. Accordingly, he went after him, tapped him on the shoulder, and asked him if he had any lead about him, upon which the prisoner said, "Yes, he had," and produced two small pieces from his waistcoat pocket. Witness told him he had more than that, and as he continued to persist in denying the fact, witness took him to the police-station, where, on searching his trousers he (witness) discovered a roll of lead, suspended round the prisoner's body by a cord, which weighed no less than 59Ibs. Upon subsequent inquiry, witness found that the prisoner had been working at some old buildings, from which he had no doubt stolen the lead ; and as the prisoner had left his work at 12 o'clock, he must have carried the lead about in his trousers for three hours. Noah Geddes said he was time-keeper Sir Mr. Gleston at some buildings which were being pulled down in Mincing lane, and that the prisoner had been at work there for some weeks. He left the place at 12 o'clock the previous day and did not return in the afternoon, but whether the lead produced belonged to the premises or not witness could not positively swear, although it was very likely. The foreman of the plumbers working at the place also examined the lead produced, but could not swear to it, although it was of a description never used now, and re sembled some belonging to the buildings. The prisoner said he left work at 12 o'clock to get his dinner, and on his way back passed a house where a man was at work who owed him 35., that man threw down the lead to him, and told him to make his money of it, and he took it away thinking it was all right. The Lord Mayor told him it was all wrong, and sent him to the treadmill for a month. GUILDHALL. THE FOLLY OF FLYING TO THE BOTTLE.—AIice Hatch, a tall, handsome girl, about 20 years of age, was charged with being drunk, and assaulting her employer, the pro prietor of Peele's Coffee-house. Mr. Mackay, from Mr. Buchanan's, attended for the pri soner, And urged on her behalf that family matters of a most unpleasant charactor had arisen, which excited the prisoner, ;and induced her to fly for consolation to the "cup that does ►tot soothe, but more inebriates." Not being used to ardent liquor, she lost all control over herself, and was certainly very violent to her employer. The worthy Alder man would recollect that the prisoner had been locked up all night, and that was sufficient punishment for a girl evi dently moving in a respectable sphere of society. The pri soner exceedingly regretted having so foolishly forgotten herself, and he (Mr. Mackay) hoped the Alderman would not, for the sake of her future prospects, inflict any further imprisonment or penalty. The Alderman most kindly pointed out the folly of drunk enness, and hoped this would prove a warning to the pri soner. He would discharge her on this occasion, as her employer had refrained from pressing the case. Discharged accordingly. CRYSTAL PALACE.—ONE SHILLING DAY.— THURSDAy, MAY 26.—Admissions on payment, 3,964; ditto by season tickets, 503; total visitors, 4,467. PAINFUL CASE.—On Wednesday an interesting looking little girl, about 16 years of age, was brought before the North Shields bench, charged with attempting to com mit suicide. It seems that on Monday afternoon , abDut three o'clock, as Mr. Charlton, clockmaker, was pulling down the narrow in a boat, he observed a bonnet on the water, and near to it the body of a little girl, floating. He immediately got the girl into the boat and pulled to the shore, and fortunately, though she was quite unconscious for some time, she recovered. The girl, who was placed in the dock on Tuesday morning, was Sarah Gilchrist, daugh ter of a keelman, residing at St. Anthony's. She had been a domestic with Mrs. Elsdon, of Linskill-street, and some unpleasantness had arisen with her sister, who had told her her father would be a t h er . The father, who is married a second time, was in court with his wife, but they denied any intention of offering violence to her. The girl had walked into the water in front of Percy-square, and when picked up was about 15 yards from the shore, and about 30 yards above the lower buoy. The poor creature had had a marvellous escape. The magistrate spoke a few kind words to her, and she was allowed to go home with her parents. —Newcastle Chronicle.

On the 27th inst , Tapioca out of the Oaks, and Market RESULT OF THE DERBY AND OAKS.—Youatt William Gray is confident of winning and placing two out of three for the Derby and the Oaks. Take his advice, and get on the two named for places—fin t, second, or third. You can get 20 to 1 each for places. This is better than backing the favourite at 2 to 1. to win. I have watched every move at Bath and Harpenden, but what I have seen there has not altered my opinion. Do not be alarmed or timid in doing as I suggest. This is another Daniel O'Rourke, Ellington, and Blink Bonny move. Terms — Derby and Oaks, 2s. 6d. ; the full meeting, s s. Please to supply stamped-addressed envelopes. Address, 15, Charing cross.

DBS2R UCTION- OF THE SHIP DALRIADA By FIRE. . The total loss by fire of the Dairiada, while on her voyage from Bombay for Liverpool, is thus reported by the captain : The Valraida sailed from Bombay, Feb. 3 (seed, cotton, and oil), for Liverpool, having a crew of 36 men all told ; and Capt. Ewing having also his wife and child on board. They had a pleasant voyage with light winds up to March 1, being in lat. 9.50 S., and long. 69 E., when at 5 p.m. an alarm of fire (was raised, and smoke was found to be forcing its way from under the covers of the chain pipes for ward ; these being taken off, the ship was found to be all in flames on the port side, as far as could be seen. All hands set to work to pour water down through holes cut in the deck, but in spite of the most strenuous efforts, at midnight the fire was spreading very rapidly over to the starboard side, and working more slowly aft ; also the foremast commenced to burn, although some hands had been souring water upon it from the time of the dis covery of the fire. At this time there were two feet of water in the well, which was attributed to the quantity of water poured down, as the ship pre viously was making little or no water. The scuppers were stopped up, and the decks flooded to keep them cool, and water ran down through the holes that had been cut forward. At 1 a.m., in sounding the pumps, the ship was haling no more water than usual. About this time a crackling noise was heard, close to the water's edge, a little abaft the forerigging, and on examination they found the pitch boiling out of the seams, the smoke oozing through, and the planks scorching hot. Finding the fire to be increasing, and working aft very rapidly, the decks, fore and aft, as far as the front of the poop, scorching hut, and the pitch in several places melting in the seams, although there were two or three inches water on desk, and expecting every moment to see the flames bursting up fore and aft, the longboat and lifeboats were got out, in preparation for abandoning the ship. At 3 a.m. there were 31 feet of water in the well, and the flames were-bursting -up forward as high as the topmast stays, setting fire to the sails, the smoke and flames driving all hands aft. At 4 a.m, a heavy squall struck the ship, causing the flames to burst up with redoubled fury, with vo lumes of smoke filling the poop and cabin. The ship was put before the wind, which cleared the cabin of smoke, and enabled them to get some pro visions on deck to take in the boats. At six o'clock there were 9 feet water in the well, the fire having burned through the ship's side close to the water's edge, and the flames bursting up the port bilge pump and poop ventilator. All hope of saving the ship being lost, the boats were got alongside. At 7 a.m.,the ship gradually settling down forward, and the foremast beginning to totter, all hands got into the boats and pushed off from the ship. In about 15 minutes the flames burst up fore and aft. At 8 a.m. and at 9 o'clock the main and wizen masts fell with a tremendous crash and the ship was enveloped in one mass of flame. The crew being divided into three boats, made sail, and stood to the north-east ward, hoping to meet with a ship, or to fetch some of the isles in the Chagos Archipelago. Next day, finding that the small boat could not sail so well as the others, the people were taken out of her, and she was set adrift and they proceeded on their way, the captain, his wife and child, and 21 men in the longboat, and chief mate with 13 men in the life boat. Providentially they encountered only fine weather, and for five weary days and nights they held anxiously on their course ; and in the after noon of the sixth day from leaving the burning wreck, all being well, they reached the island of Diego Garcia, where there are three cocoa oil manufactories, by the managers of which they were most kindly and hospitably received and cared for. The captain describes their kindness, and especially that of his entertainer, Mons. Gassiab, as beyond all expression. Here, too, they were so for tunate as to find the Futteh Salaam, Capt. Croad, who had put in for water for the coolies on board. The captain received them on board his ship, and treated them with the greatest kindness on their passage to Calcutta, and Capt. Ewing desires to take the opportunity publicly to express the gratitude felt by him and his crew, both to Capt. Croad and to their kind hosts at Diego Garcia." THIS DAYS MARKETS. COVENT GARDEN.
