RONEY _MARKET AND CITY NEII S. CITY, Two o'CLocx ADVANCE IN THE BANK RATE OF DISCOUNT. The directors of the Bank of England announced at an early hour this morning that the minimum rate of discount had been raised from 3 to 4 per cent. This important alteration, although it amounts to 1 per cent., and has been adopted so early in the week, was in some measure anticipated, owing to the rapid flow of gold to the continent, and the ex citement created in the Discount Market by the impression that a change would necessarily ensue. The demand for money yesterday afternoon be came unusually active, as some of the commercial community hastened to obtain all the assistance they required during the seat few weeks while the rates remained unaltered. The advance, therefore, became necessary; and, if it should arrest the drain of bullion, monetary affair% may soon settle down into a quiet state. The ordinary requirements of trade are yet too moderate to create any pressure for money ; and, notwithstanding the recent intro duction of new schemer., the present disturbance is attributable to diminished receipts of specie and augmented shipments of gold to the Continent and of silver to the East. During the last few days the transactions in the Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets have been rather restricted owing to the increased value of money consequent upon the advance in the mini mum rate of discount. Prices, however, have, in several instances, been fully sustained. For tea there has been a steady demand, and the finer descriptions have realised full rates. The transac tions in sugars have not been extensive, only the finer qualities finding purchasers, at about late quotations. Coffee has been neglected, and the dealings in rice, fruit, and spices have been re stricted to immediate requirements. At the public sales of cinnamon less firmness was apparent, and the rates realised were a trifle under those obtained at the previous sales. Saltpetre has maintained its value, and more activity has been apparent in the tallow market, the demand for consumption having considerably increased, the trade having operated to a fair extent in most qualities at slightly advanced rates. Letters from Liverpool report that the Cotton Market yesterday closed with a very animated ap pearance, and prices of all descriptions were well supported. The sales were estimated at 10,000 bales. In the Railway Share Market only a very small amount of business was transacted, and quo tations exhibited a further decline. About £76,000 in gold was withdrawn from the Bank of England yesterday for exportation. A meeting has been convened of the Mediterra nean Extension Telegraph Company for the pur pose of considering the general position of the company's 4fairs. Therdr*Snoebeen inueh animation i n th e mar k et for Publics Securities to-day, the rise in the rate of discount not having stimulated speculative business. Instead of creating depression, however, the mea • sure, which it is thought, will artaboilWeilhix - Of gold, has led to a fractional recovery.

The shares of the Ocean Marino Insurance have been dealt in at 21 prep. ; the Universal ditto at preen. ; the Bank of Turkey, k dis. to prem. ; and Canada Loan, 2 prem. (the second instalment of 8 per cent. is due to-morrow). The transactions in the Railway Share Market have been 'rather limited, and the few dealingi • entered — int,o have been at further reduced rates.

Joint Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares have been in very limited request, with little variation of importance in prices. ehl'rllllll PIXIE THIS DAT AT ONE O'CLOCK. "lank Stock $ iker Cent.

Sir,—On Saturday night the supply of gas by the Equitable Company was so deficient that the stage of this theatre was almost in total darkness, While at many houses in the neighbourhood candles Were used to enable persons to carry on their busi ness. At this season of the year, when the managers of all the metropolitan theatres have gone to great oxpense in the production of their Christmas enter tainments, it is very disheartening to find their *torts entirely frustrated through the want of suf ficient light. I have frequently remoistrated with the company, but without effect, and I now make my eomplaint public, in the hope that something may be done to r emove a monopoly that leaves a consumer entirely at the mercy of the companies controlling the various districts of this metropolis. As I pay a b ou t £l , OOO per annum t o th e Equit able, I must say their treatment of me does not at all illustrate the title of that compat., Knowing ho w w illi ng you are " all times to urd a space in your influential journal in order to call attention to a public grievance, I trust you "ill oblige me by inserting this communication. Yours obediently, J. B. BUCKSTONE. Theatre Royal, Haymarket, Jan. 30. case, V. BOYNTON.—I n re f erence t o thi s e, Which was t r i e d i n t h e Divorce Court on Saturday, iz John.

CENTRAL CBrilinv COURT—(This Dny: OLD COURT. (Before the Recorder.) Charles Sharpe, Thomas Brown, LllllOl Slater, and Patrick. Campbell, were indicted for feloniously, breaking and entering the district parish church of St. John, Isling ton, and stealing several articles, the property of the Rev. Henry Salkeld Bratnah and the Rev. Charles Edmonkone ; also 801%10 velvet, the property of Joseph Kingston° Gal, lard, and another. The facts of the case have already appeared at length in The Jun, during the time the prisoners were under exami nation before Mr. Corrie, at the Clerkenwoll police-court. The jury found Slater, Sharpe., and Campbell guity, and acquitted Brown. The Recorder sentenced Sharpe to eight years, and Slater and Campbell to four years penal servitude. ROBBERY FROM TILE PERSON. Thomas Jones, 'a lad 15 years of age, was indicted for stealing a gold pin from the person of M. Rickwood. The evidence was extremely clear and proved the pri soner to be an adept in "the profession." The jury found him guilty. The Recorder in sentencing the prisoner said, it appeared from the evidence of the policeman, that he had obtained some standing amongst his associates, as they called him " captain." It would be for the good of 'the public if he was removed, at all events, for some period from them, and, under such circumstances, he should sen tence him to three years' penal servitude..

THE FAIR SEX AND rHE VOLUNTEERS.—Sir John Ogiivy, , M.P., in an address delivered at a public meeting in Dundee on behalf of the volunteer movement, •said—" I , hold in. my hand a beautiful ornament, a prize which has been offered to the Volunteers of Dundee for beat marks man in the corps, to be decided, under such regulations as the committee may arrange, at a competition to take place on the 14th of July next. The letter convoying this prize signed by one who was the first, I believe, to give any effec tual assistance to the Dundee Volunteers, under the name of "An Old Woman.'—(Loud applause.) It has been re marked to me that I should call upon the younger ladies to follow such an example, but I would beg leave to say, on behalf of thy se ladies, that ,they offer themselves prizes of another kind—(laug hter and cheers)—and to the Volun teers I would' remark that, .',None but the brave deserve the fair.' (Loud cheering.) , The ornament was handed down for the inspection of the audience, and was of a very handsome appearance, being composed of an elegantly wrought knot, from which a bugle is suspended by a silver chain, and on this are inscribed the letters; D. V. R., 1860.' On the knot is the motto, Mo t to m an i nue .Prosta."' COLONIAL GOVEIC • D.Gov.6p.e.Ja. & Ju y Do. 6 p.c.F b. &Aug. Do. 6 p.c.Mr. k Sep.

The; prisoner then left, and shortly afterwards he missed two chairs, part of a set, from the door: and which were covered with the piece of cloth produced. In about twenty minutes after the prisoner came bask to his shop with something wrapped in the piece of cloth and drew from the cloth a pestle and mortar, which he put into his hand and offered for sale. At once recognising them as his own property, ho asked how he came by them, and he said he had had them two Months, while the fact was the things were safe in his shop in the morning. The prisoner then made off, throwing ►way the piece of cloth, but he was taken into custody shortly after wards. Prisoner said he picked up the pestle and mortar in the street. Waring, 33 C, said he found the three bagatelle balls on the prisoner, who said he had had them some , time, and the pestle and mortar 18.rcionths., Mr. John Wilson, .of the Had Bull, St. Ann's e non.rt, Soho, identified the bagatelle balls as his property.

THE BALLOT IN AUSTRALIA. Mr. Wm. Cooper, of the National Bank of Aus tralia, Melbourne, has addressed to Mr. Cobden; M.P., the following interesting letter on the " working of the ballot" in the colony of Victoria : Nov. -15, 1859. . _ Dear Sir,—Among the . newspaperS which have just arrived by the mail from England, I have read with interest a report of your speech at the Roch dale banquet ; and though a personal stranger to you, I feel inclined to address you these few lines in corroboration of the sentiments you expressed in favour of the ballot, especially as I did not observe that you instanced this colony as a country in whieh it had been thoroughly successful. I am aware that the person who was chiefly instrumental in introducing the system of secret voting here, William' Nicholson, was under your notice whilst on a visit to England some time ago, yet as all the elections under_ our new Coo§:1- : tution (inauguratedllirce years ago), hie taken place since that time, I thought it might not. be un interesting to you-to know how the system hat , ' been found to work in actual practice. With hardly a single exception, all the 'elections (say over 100 in number at the least) have taken place with an_ entire absence of disorder, drunken ness, intimidation, or known or even allefiedbribury, though in a large number of cases party spirit ran very high. In all the elections which have come under my personal observation, such was the com plete contrast to the scenes enacted in England, that a stranger coming into the town would never have known that a hotly contested election was going on, except perhaps by the posters on the dead walls. Out of them all 1 can only recall one in stance in which intimidation was practised, and one case of " treating" on a very small scale ; the latter ! offence sufficed to unseat the only member of the Victorian Parliament who has yet been unseated. So far from there being any disposition to return to the old method of Open voting, almost all those who opposed the introduction of the ballot, now acknowledge its advantages, and amongst them is the then Premier, whose Cabinet was beaten on the question and who resigned in consequence. No imputation of tampering with the voting papers in any way has yet occurred, so that one of the flimsy and plausible objections of Sydney Smith is practically refuted. The returning officers are chosen from men of the highest standing and honor, and only in one instance has there ever been any suspicion of partiality or unfairness on their part, - and in that instance it was only a question of two or three votes,:which in no way influencedthe elec tion. As I think it is very probable that you may have made yourself acquainted with the the precise way in which the voting is here conducted. I will not enter into details in the matter; I will merely con clude by saying that th oug h always a believer in the ballot I never saw, till I witnessed its opera tion here, how flimsy and groundless are all the objections of its enemies. Asa point of Reform I should be more glad to see it carried in Britain than any other, but I know that it will be most keenly contested by the " Upper ten thousand" and therefore I wish that its advocates may be, in pos session of every argument which can be brought to bear; and as one fact is worth six arguments, I have taken the liberty to trouble you with a few— hoping that if th'ey are at all fresh to you they may prove of some little use,—l remain, your sincere admirer, WM. COOPER. Richard Cobden, Esq., M.P. RESTORATION OF TILE SIIRUBBERLES IN HYDE-PARE. On Saturday last, at the weekly meeting of the St. Marylebone Representative Council, held at the Court-house—Mr. Churchwarden Poland in the chair—the subject of the recent destruction of the shrubberies in Hyde-park was again brought under consideration by the reading of the following com munications from the members of the borough on the subject : "2, Dr. Johnson's Buildings, Temple, Jan. 23, 1860. " Sir,—l acandirestad by Mr. Edwin James to communi cate to you, for the information, of the vestry, that he has seen Lord Palmerston, and announced to hiui his intention of putting a question in the hoUse at an early opportunity upon the subject of the present state of.

The Danish \ scheoner,' Yoaimil,,Andrews master, of and (or Copenhagen,. with fruit from Messina, put in here to-day and landed James P. Call, the master, and ten of the crew of the barque Stalk, of 359 tons, which was laden with barley from the Black Sea, and went down 100 miles west of Lisbon, having on Saturday, January 21, been in collision with the barque *William_ Marslatid, of 350 tons, from Swansea for Chili, said to be laderr with iron and coke. The accident occurred in lat. 38.50 N., long. Xl2 W., at 2 a.m.; wind N.W. by W., strong, w ith a heavy sea. he Stalk was on the port tack, under single-reeled topsails and maintopgallant sails, sailing by the wind, and making about five knots. Without any warning she was struck on th 2 star boat 'bow and cut down to the water's edge by the Marsland, chich then turned round and with her stern struck her again in the , same place. Her crew 'had only time,to get the jollyboat :out of the longboat and shove off, when she went down, her night lights showing to the last moment, and was shortly afterwards followed by the other barque. Ralph Johnson, 22; is supposed to have been drowned in his bhnli 'in the Stalk's forecastle. Robert Johnson, 18, was astern in the quarter boat, and was engulphed with the ship. Andrew Roland, 16, is missing, and is said to have gone on board the Marsland. One of her passengers, Wm. Mill, miner, of Redrut h, Corn wall, dropped down over her stern, and joining the Stalk got into the jollyboat, which then pulled away before wind and sea for the coast of Portugal, and at five o'clock in the afternoon fell in Provi dentially with the schooner, on board which they were well treated. Mill states that the Marsland had two other passengers (miners) and a crew of 20 persons. The chief officer was called Clark. She was on the starboard tack, going seven knots. The master had unfortunately ordered the discon tinuance of night lights three days before the acci dent. CAPTURE OF A SHIP WITH 888 SLAVE,! BY H.M.S. PLUTO. We have received the following letter from the relatives of the writer. It is addressed to his mother, and will be read with great interest : " _H.M.S. Pluto, at Sea, Nov. 30, 1859. " We left Mazemba on Friday last, and stood out for a cruise. We are now about 200 miles off the land, and yesterday and the day before we chased a Yankee brigantine--but this morning—what do you think ?--we have actually taken the notable. Orion, with 888 slaves on board. Only fancy, after the Yankees have sent her to New York, and she has been let go, and now the Yankees have taken her into the Conga and detained her, and the Triton had her in tow, that we should take her with very little trouble ! It was a glorious sight. I shall never forget it. We saw her at daylight, about eight or ten miles off, and steamed after her, coming up to her in about an hour. Well, we did not hoist our colours till we were close to her, and then she sent up the stars and stripesthcn we steam, d round ~her, and our captain hailed to knew what ship it was—the fellow sung out .‘ Orion,' and that he-was going to New York ;so our captain.said he would board her, and as he was stepping out of the boat to go on board they hauled down their colours, tore them in half, and hove them overboard. Our men then gave three cheers, which was answered by the liberated slaves in a manner that we shall all remember as long as we live. She is a splendid prize. This is a great loss to the slave-dealers, as they feel the loss of slaves more than ships, and this makes 2,080 taken in less than two months." From previous letters it appears that this no torious Orion was captured in April last by H.M.S. Triton. She then nailed the American flag to het mast, and refused to surrender; but was afterwards taken possesssion of by the American cruisers and conveyed to New York. --- 7" Major-Genefal den, Commanding the Cork District, will resign his coramancl on the let of April next. awl Navy Gazette. ..23 The Instructive Picture Book. B y MH H . H T M. H. T. Edmonston and Douglas. This is a really admirable work, alike excellent in design and execution. It will perhaps be re membered that a former'work of this series, having for its object general information - on common things, was issued some time since. `We then took occasion to speak of it in terms of high commendation, and this second part is fully equal in merit to the first. It takes for its subject the Natural History of the Quadrupeds, which characterise the princip a l divi sions of the globe, andthus impresses on the mind of the student a clear idea of the geographical distribu tion ofanimals. Europe,the abode ehieflya domesti cated animals, occupies the first place, and aecord., ingly we meet with plates of the lynx, the wi cat, the moose and reindeer, the chamois !tad - Al,pip,k hare, the Ilarb-Ary ape, the ca'ing whale,. ii cattle and sheep of various kinds. Asia is rep* sented by the tiger,. huntingleoplrd, m =lc deer, zebu, and yak. Java, Ne* ANstralia, and Van Diemen's Land follow Oe'kett gave°, of course, occupying a prominently§itiint ilk the latter. Africa shows us no less than 16 plated, ine:uding the most striking specimens Of vild-ani mal life. Th e li on , th e l eopar d, e l e ph a nt, rhino.: eeros, hippopotamus, buf alo, giraffe, zebra, ant hyena are the tno,t prominent. .goutia. America has, among othprs, the puma, jaguar; llama ' sloth, anteater, and chi nc hill a —th e l a t ter grace f u l little animal forming one of the prettiest pictures, in the book. North America, for its share, sends the grisly bear, racoon, bison, mountain sheep, beaver, and several kinds of deer. Even the ends of the earth are made to contribute—the Arctic regions being the domain of the walrus, the musk ox, and the narwhal, 'or sea unicorn ; and the plate belong ing to the Antarctic Seas showing us the sperm whale. The various tribes of monkeys furnish a large proportion of the plates. The table of con tents scarcely does justice to the number and va riety of the pictures, as in many instances groups of animals are introduced in the back. ground. Eack,plate is. ',accompanied by a clear and careful description of the nature and habits of the ani mal, giving his proper sioological name, his species, when first known, where most common, and similar information, interspersed with anec dotes of their chase or capture most interesting to young lovers of adventure. The size and beauty of the plates are remarkable ; they are admirably coloured, the landscapes and sea views being as carefully drawn and brilliantly coloured as the animals themselves. They are really excellent, and the great variety of scene offered by the different climates has been taken full advantage of. The luxu riance of tropical vegetation and the barren wastes of snowy mountains are skilfully contrasted. Where all are so good of their kind it would perhaps be difficult to select the best, but we may mention as especially remarkable for brilliancy and effect the plates of the British wild cattle, the Lapland rein deer, the tiger, the elephant, the tapir, the walrus, and sperm whale. There are in all sixty plates, and many of them will serve to teach in some degree botany also. They will delight very juvenile scholar'', though the general character of the work is suited to those much more advanced, and indeed elders need not scorn to turn over its pages. The drawings are really works of art, and we heartily recommend it to the public, at the same time ex pressing a hope that the series will be continued in the same style. Ornithology would afford some excellent subjects for the skilful pencil of the artist. The present work can scarcely fail to meet with a large share of public favour. Liberty Hall, Oaon. By W. Winwood Reade. Charles I. Skeet. _ . It is a great pity whea an author writes upon a subject of which he knows nothing - that he does not chose the wilds of Siberia, or any other out landish part of the globe about which the general public know little and care less, rather than one of our oldest institutions with which most educated men are directly or indirectly connected. The author of " Liberty . Hall" lays himself open either to this charge or to the graver accusation of misrepresen tation. Let any University man say whether the following extract is a fair representation of the undergraduates of Oxford : He had about twenty guests, all pretty much of the lame cast. Handsome, well-dressed young fellows, distinguished chiefly by their snow-wall collars, their protruding wrist bands, their bunches of dangling watch-chairi bijouteries ; their attention to appearance, displayed in their hair po maded to daszlement, their handkerchiefs perfumed to satu ration, their young whiskers overwhelmed with assiduity, and on their cravats, the patience, if not the talent of a Brummell. Their veneration for fashion might be dis cerned in the uniform cut of their dress, changed every month at the dictation of the leading tailors, and which has so often lifted the eyebrows of Belgravia. Their conversa tion ran on the stage of which they knew nothing, of the world in which they had no experience, and of their own street-dirt.of which they knew too much. They choked up the interstices of their talk with oaths, and daubed over their.ignorance of English with a profusion of slang. They had no particular ',ices except a very great one : that of spending money wl4ch was not their 03V11, - titat 'of ruining their families, , relibi,ug their. tradesmen, disgracing, im poverishing themselves. After the foregoing it is unnecessary to dwell upon the description given of " college dons ;" but• we advise )Ir. ,W. I.;‘adc in his future publications to adhere more to common sense, and not in his at tempts to reach the sublime to fall - into the ridicu lous. In the following passage, we think, lie shows his talent for the latter : Come with me to n part where one of the green plots Is girdled by a ring of buildings turretted and imposing.:The April sun that is warm without heat, and gleams, without dazzling, flickers merrily on the smiling grass, and loses itself in the repulsive shadows of the court. We beg to suggest that warmth cannot exist with out heat, that grass does not smile, end that the sun cannot loser itself in a " repulsive shadow." True lore, however sincere and disinterested, may betar ried beyond the bounds of reason and good taste; and we do not think that the hero of the tale would raise himself in the estimation of his beloved, unless she were as devoid of common seise as himself, by the subjoined conduct : " When her form had melted from my sight, I returned with a throbbing brain to the spot on which she hid been resting. I covered it with fierce kisses, and even with my tears. In the soft black earth, the marks of her feet were imprinted : I kissed these also, and believed that I was embracing the feet of Margaret. 1 reclined upon that bank, and as the shadows fall round me, I fancied that Margaret was also there. When the night warned me I should go, rising heavily, I perceived a little flowenupon-thedull sod by my side. It was the flower that had seamed •t 0 smile in the hands of Margaret ; it was the flower she had.carried in her breast; it was faded and withered, for the warmth of her bosom had dried up the dew within its; leaves. I pressed it to my lips without ceasing, as I 'want slowly back towards the town, and I dreamt that the lips of Margaret Adie were burning beneath my own." The tale, setting aside its misrepresentation of facts and absurd diction, is amusing, and those who are not particular on these little points may find in its perusal some entertainment. M , INCIIESTER UNITY OF ODD FELL OWS. Last night the sixteenth anniversary of the British Oak Lodge was celebrated at the Gate House Tavern, Highgate. About 80 sat down to a capital feast, provided by Host Crane ; and P.G.s Chapman and Hughes filled the chairs with great credit. The usual loyal and patriotic toasts (including " The Volunteers"), being disposed of, the Chairman proposes " The Manchester Unity, its Directors, and the North London Officers," which was responded to by G. M. Rough, who said the order now numbered about 300,000 members, North London having 7,500 of them, an annual in come of about £B,OOO, and surplus capital invested, £50,000. The " Widow and Orphan Fund," was re plied to by Secretary Cumpston, who explained it was an adjunct to the district, and that in 22 years £21,500 had been distributed to widows and chil dren, and and there was now in hand £9,500. " Continued prosperity to the British Oak Lodge and the health of Mr. Broadbent," having been drunk, that gentleman, as one of the founders of this branch, returned thanks. He gave as an instance the experience of this lodge—one of 3,000 —to show the good that must be effected by the order. 145 members had been initiated since the opening, six had died, and allowing for secessions and those removing, they had now 41 good 'nem- hers. About £215 had bee n paid away for sick relief, and the surplus funds were £427. Mr. Haines, a long resident at Highgate, responded for " The Visitors," expressing his pleasure on hear ing such a favourable rep ort ; and no little amusement was no u cau sed g n by s ome gentlemen rising t oget h er n thvr intention to beco me members. The musical depa rtment was a dmirably conducted by • G . G Alford, who himself sang an excel lent song, by his father, extolling the 'violin ; and the fine old Assembly-room was tastefully d by Mr. Boggs. At a v ery late 1 • ecorated hour the proeeod ings of a long and pleasant • •, eA ening were reluct antly closed. Ir E . :HE .11IPEROR AND THE POPE.—About three months ago, says ,the jVcro Elu-orroP e hre c r al al ed d, o S n en t ihte E o rS n e l p w e a r r o d , , who was m a ki ng a tour of who happ ene d to beat Cotonii , gne. , The senator wasshow n into an antechamber, and Napoleon soon made his appear ance. Afti,r the usual salutation, and taking his position standing with his back to the fire, he offered the senator cigar. and commenced smoking another himself. Ire asked him all about New York and Col. Webb, and then asl. ed him about his visit to Europe, and whom and what he saw. Mr. Seward, among other objects of interest, said he had seen the Pope. " Oh, yes, the Pope," responded Napoleon; "tell me all about him. What do you think of the Pope ?" The New York senator hesitated a moment, but, notwith standing his characteristic caution, the Emperor wormed out his opinion, and Seward said, " I confess I think him much more of a priest than statesman." " Precisely so," rejoined the Emperor, " you have just hit the nail on the bead. That, too, is my opinion."
