The rates of discount and exchange remained the same at the close of the year as they were during the month of November. Government debentures were:steady, and ter minables were quoted at par, and interminables at 98i. The total revenue for the year 1859 amounted to £1,540,550 Bs. 7d. For 1853 the amount received was £1,422,466 16s. There is therefore an increase of .£118,083 12s. 7d., or over 8 per cent., in favour of revenue. Since the commencement of the year 1860 the share mar ket has become firmer ; and, as the news from England per Salsette is favourable, prices have an upward tendency. The quantity of gold dust received by the escorts from our several goldfields during the month of December amounted to 27,7940 z. For the corresponding month of 1858 the amount was 24,8450 z. The increase on the month is therefore 2,8490 z., or about 113- per cent. During the year 1858 the quantity of gold dust sent down by escort was 255,535 oz. For the year 1859 the amount received has been 213,574 oz., which is an increase of 38,039 oz., or nearly 15 per cent. in favour of the past year. The yield of gold from our goldfields has steadily improved during the last three years, and the increase in the receipts of the year 1859, as compared with 1857, is 145,448 oz., or about 8 per cent. The following are the total amounts received from the western, southern, and northern goldfields during the years 1857, 1858, and 18.59 : 1857. 1858. 1859. Oz. Oz. Oz.

As compared with the year 1857, the increase in the yield from the western goldfields is 33,029 oz., or nearly 40 per cent. ; in the southern, 78,510 oz., or 254 per cent. ; and in the northern, 33,909 oz., or 115 per cent. -HONEY MARKET AND CITY NEWS. CITY, Two o'CLocx. The arrivals of specie both from America and Australia continue limited, but some large remit tances are coming forward from the latter source) of supply, which may prevent any extensive efflux from the Bank of England. The following is a list of the vessel's which have left the colony for this country :—The Commodore Perry, £58,000; Cleadon, £68,000; Saldhana, £64,000; Essex, £56,000 ; Indemnity, £71,000 ; Copenhagen, £156,000 ; Wellesley, £93,764 ; Champion of the Seas, £176,080 ; and the Suffolk, £129,532, making a total of £873,276. No change of importance is exhibited in the money market, the demand, which is moderate, being readily met at the current quotations. Tho requirements of trade are not at present sufficient to create much activity, and, as the demand for other purposes is tolerably quiet, the market is steady, but full rates are still maintained, and there is no immediate prospect of a reaction. The foreign exchanges yesterday exhibited a slight decline in the rates on Amsterdam and Hamburg. At the Bank of England yesterday there were no bullion operations. In the Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday only a very small amount of business was transacted, and prices were depressed. The sales were 3,000 bales. The Railway Share Market closed quietly, and quotations were rather lower, The transactions in the market for Public Secu rities to-day have been very moderate, but further symptoms of depression have been exhibited, Consols being 941 1 for money, and 941 I for the April account.

HER, 21121JEST1"S RECEPTION OF THE VOLUNTEERS. (THIS DAY.) From an early hour this morning St. .James' Palace was all alive with preparations for her Ma jesty's reception of the officers of the various volunteer corps throughout the country; and from nearly every county in England, if not from all, gentlemen who have never before been in a position to avail themselves of a presentation to the Queen, have flocked into London within the last day or two, full of excitement on account of the honour about to be conferred upon them. Ample pre parations were made outside the palace to pre vent the possibility of any confusion, and although the military officers who had charge of the troops which kept guard seemed to look down upon their brethren of the volunteers, everything was conducted with perfect order and decorum. Amongst the earliest arrivals at the Palace were the lord-lieutenants and the military authorities summoned to attend the Court. They entered the Palace by the Ambassadors'-court, and passed at once to the entree room. There were present his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, the Com mander-in-Chief; the Right Hon. Sidney Herbert, M.P., Secretary for War; the Earl de Grey and Ripon, Under Secretary for War ; Viscount Combermere, G.C.8., Constable of the Tower; Viscount Sydney, Lord• Lieutenant of Kent; the Earl of Malmesbury, Lord-Lieutenant of Dorset ; the Marquis of Westminster, Lore- Lieutenant of Chester; Earl Ducie, Lord- Lieutenant of Gloucestershire ; the Duke of Newcastle, Lord• Lieutenant of Nottingham ; Sir John Walsh, Bart., M.P., Lord-Lieutenant of Rad norshire ; the Marquis of Winchester, Lord-Lieu tenant of Southampton ; Earl Fitzwilliam, Lord- Lieutenant of the West Riding of Yorkshire ; Lord Lyttelton, Lord-Lieutenant of Worcestershire ; the Duke of Devonshire, Lord• Lieutenant of Derbyshire ; Lord Carington, Lord-Lieu tenant of Buckinghamshire ; Colonel Lloyd Vaughan Watkins, M.P., Lord-Lieutenant of Brecon; the Marquis of Exeter, Lord-Lieutenant of Northamptonshire; the Marquis of Lansdowne, Lord-Lieutonant of Wiltshire; the Duke of Marl borough, Lord-Lieutenant of Oxfordshire ; the Marquis of Salisbury, Lord-Lieutenant of Middle sex ; Earl Grey, Lord-Lieutenant of Northumber land ; the Earl of Hardwicke, Lord-Lieutenant of Cambridgeshire; the Duke of Richmond, Lord- Lieutenant of Sussex ; Lord Mostyn.

Next came the officers of the various rifle corps according to priority of formation, as far as it was possible to carry that arrangement out. On ac count of the shortness of the time which elapses between the arrivals and the time of our going to press, we are not enabled to give more than a few of the earliest arrivals, with the names of the officers who attended. First amongst those who arrived were the officers of the various Middlesex regiments, comprising a host of names holding various ranks of military distinction.

The SPEAKER took the *hair at twelve o'clock. CLARE ELECTION. The committee appointed to try the merits of the countl Clare election petition were sworn at the table, and wil meet to-morrow at eleven o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The following bills were considered and read a third _time :--the Lewesiter . Sias mud -the- Raii*ray (Rowsley and Buxton Lines). Mr. C. FORSTER moved that the order of the 31st day of January last, that the London and South-Western Railway (New Line to Exeter and Crediton Railway, &c.) Bill be committed, be read, and discharged :—That the bill be withdrawn.—Agreed to. PETERBOROUGH, ATHLONE, AND NORWICH. The respective committees appointed to try the electien petitions in the case of these boroughs wore nominated. SAVOY AND NICE. Mr. M. MILNES (rave notice that on the motion of the hon. member for Bridgewater for an address to the Crown relative to the annexation of Savoy and Nice to Fiance, he would move, as an amendment, to leave out all the words after the following words, "annexation of Savoy and Nice," for the purpose of inserting these words, humbly ex pressing to her Majesty "deep regret at the aoitatien of a question affecting the frontier of a great State ' defined and secured by the consent of Europe, and on apparently very insufficient grounds; humbly- assuring her Majesty that this house will earnestly support her Majesty's advisers in conducting the negotiations upon this question to an issue compatible with the true interests of Europe, and with the faithful observance of the treaties, and for the maintenance of the peace of Europe." CHINA. Colonel COCHRANE gave notice that to-morrow he would ask if her Majesty's Government had any objection to lay on the table of the house the despatches relative to China. REGISTRATION OF VOTERS BILL. - Mr. M. MILNES, in moving the second reading of this bill, observed tharit was drawn up to meet a grievance that existed with reference to the voters of the West Riding of Yorkshire, and to effect a limitation of the number of the objections which the revisin barrister might be allowed to hear in one day. Mr. E. JAMES considered that the effect of the bill would be to lead to the introduction of local legislation in regard to other parts of the c oun t r y, w hi c h would be highly objec tionable He concluded by moving that the bill be read a second time this day six months. Sir G. C. LEWIS said that the Government had under consideration a measure, of a general character, which would moot such cases as the hon. member alluded to. After some discussion the motion and the amendment wore withdrawn. PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT BILL. This bill went through commutes, and the house re slimed. CORONERS' No. 2 BILL. Mr. COBBETT moved the se ( re reading of this bill, the object of which is to substitute payment of coroners by salaries instead of fees, which was the present mode of remuneration. The necessity for the bill was shown by the fact that 15 counties refused to allow these fees. The hon. member contended that the effect of such refusal would vir tually be to abolish in tote the office of coroner, and there fore the legislature was called on to pass some enactment that would meet the exigencies of the case. He added tha he proposed the salaries should be regulated by extent of area and population, and in cases where th e mag i strates for counties could not agree with the coroner, the matter should be settled by the Secretary of State. Mr. E. JAMES moved, as an amendment, to leave out from the word " That" to the end of the question, in order to add the words " a select committee be appointed, to con • eider the state of the law and practice as regards the taking of inquisitions in cases of death, and the remuneration now paid to coroners ; and whether it is expedient that any and what, alteration should be made in the manner in which such remumeration is now made; and to consider the effect and operation of the statutes now in force upon that subject, and to report thereupon to the house." There would be two substantial questions that could be settled by a select committee. Firstly, the question of the remunera tion ; secondly, the mode of payment, whether by salary or by fee ; and thirdly, whether or no the office should be abo lished. The hon. and learned member referred to the cir cumstances connected with the case of Palmer, and the large increase in the crime of infanticide, to show the ne cessity that existed for the retention of the office. Sir G. C. LEWIS said that no doubt existed as to the importance of the office of coroner, but owing to modern improvements, the diffusion of intelligence by means of newspapers, and the establishment of county police, that importance was much diminished. There was an evil which required a remedy, arising out of the conflict between magistrates and coroners, and the different decisions given in different counties, in which cases the Home 'office had no power of interference. He hadintroduced a bill on the subject which proposed to confer a right of appeal in cases of such conflicts, and which should be decided by the Court of Queen's Bench. He strongly objected to applying for redress to the Home-office, until it had been shown that the di ff erences could n ot be judicially settled. He objected also to the mode in which the bill pro posed to deal with the subject of remuneration, and he would vote ag ainst its second reading. However, he would not object to the appointment of a select com mittee to inquire into the subject. Mr. 31. SMITH supported the amendment, and consi dered that, in addition to the questions specified, the com mittee might also inquire beneficially into the mode of the election of coroners. Mr. V. SCULLY also supported the amendment. After some further discussion, in which Mr. Henley, Mr. J. Locke, Sir G. Grey, Mr. Ingham, Mr. Mills, Lord 11. ;Vane, and Mr. Bovill took part, Sir G. C. LEWIS said that his bill proposed to apply a constitutional remedy for an admitted grievance, and left the questions involved in the bill of the hon. member for Oldham untouched. However, in deference to the wish expressed by some hon. members, ho would not press his bill at present. Mr. COBBETT said that he had elicited an opinion as to the utility of the office of coroner, and he was quite willing to accede to the proposition of the hon. and learned mem ber, and allow the bill to be referred to a select committee. The motion was formally withdrawn, and the amend ment was agn ed to. SPIRITS (IRELAND) ACT AMENDMENT BILL. The bill went through committee, and the house resumed. OXFORD UNIVERSITY BILL. The house went into committee on this bill. Lord R. CECIL moved a series of verbal amendments which were agreed to. The bill as amended then went through committee, and the house resumed. CORON ERS' BILL. Sir G. C. LEWIS, in accordance with his statement in the discussion on Mr. Cobbett's bill, postponed the second reading of the bill for a fortnight. WAYS AND MEANS. The house then went into committee. Mr. LAING moved the following resolution :—That, towards making good the supply granted to her Majesty, the sum of £4,500,000 be granted out of the Consolidated Fund of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. —Agreed to. The house then resumed. CUSTOMS ACT. The report on resolutions 11 and 12, relating to the tim ber duties, was brought up and agreed to. The house adjourned at 20 minutes to four o'clock. POLICE INTELLIGENCE-( THIS DAY.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. ASSAULT ON A RIFLE VOLUNTEER. —James Fits morris was charged as follows :—Mr. Wm. Montgomery, of 32, Shaftesbury-terrace, clerk, said that at one o'clock that morning he was in the Black Horse, at the corner of Jermyn-street, Haymarket, with two friends dressed in Rifle Volunteer uniforms, when the defendant •said in a most offensive manner to his friends—" You are smart fellows," and continued his sneering and jeering. One of his friends said he had not got the pluck to join the corps, when he struck him (complainant) a severe blow in the eye , and he then gave him in charge. Defendant admitted the assault, and said that he was in sulted. He merely said, " How stupid it is to come herein such a dress." Mr. Beadon said it was as well perhaps not to wear the .uniform more than necessary. The complainant said they had been to Willis's Rooms to the dinner of their corps. Mr. Thomas Webb said he was in uniform. Defendant called them riflemen, and said they were a parcel of fools, and everybody was laughing at them. His friend said he had not pluck enough to come out in uniform, and he then struck him in the face, and afterwards struck him (witness). Mr. Beadon said it was a most unprovoked assault, and he did not see wilt men who chose to belong to rifle corps were to be chaffed while in their uniform. He had no no tion whatever of it, and should fine him £3 for the assault. EMBEZZLEMENT.—Henry Bailey, a young man in the employ of Mr. Peter Robinson, draper, of 106, Oxford street, was charged with embezzlement. Eleanor Eades, serva nt to Miss Connel, of 2 , St. John's - Gardens, Kensington Park, said, that on Saturday, pri soner brought a parcel containing a black silk dress, and Miss Connel gave her £3 to pay the bill, £2 10s. Ild., and the prisoner gave her the change and a receipt which he signed. Robert Patten, cashier to Mr. Peter Robinson, said it was the prisoner's duty to hand over all monies he received to him. He had never accounted to him for the sum in ques tion, and said that, not having change for a £lO note, he had not been paid. The signature to the receipt produced was in the prisoner's handwriting. The prisoner had been in the employ of the firm for two years. Prisoner was remanded for a week, but will be committed for trial. z Z , f . LA TV INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day.) HOUSE OF LORDS. Peers present—The Lord Chancellor, Lord Cranwortb Lord Wensleydale, Lord Kingston and other peers. APPEAL.-MAXWELL (PA,UPER) V. M'CLURE. The further hearing of this appeal was resumed this morning. Mr, Adams was heard for the appellant. The Attorney-General (Sir Richard Bethell, Q.C.) was heard for the respondent. Mr. Anderson, Q.C., followed on the same side. The contention was whether Samuel M'Clure, late of Wigan and Dumfries, was at the time of his wife's death a domiciled Englishman or :Scotclintan. The Court of Session, on the 18th of December, 1857, held that he was domiciled in Wigan. Mr. Mundel was heard in reply. The learned counsel submitted that the evidences showed that Mr. M'Clure changed his residence from Wigan to Dumfries, and that his domicile was Scotch, and that his wife's (Ann Donald son's) personal estate, which was considerable, should be distributed according to the law of Scotland, and not the law of England. The Lord Chancellor was of opinion that the decision of the Court of Session ought to be affirmed. It was clear t hat on the Bth of April, 1851, Mr. M'Clure's residence was in Wigan, England, and that although he went to live at Laurel Mount, Dumfries, he did not intend to abandon his English residence. The Lord Chancellor dismissed the appeal without costs in respect the appellant was suing in forma pauperis. The other noble and learned lords entirely concurred. JUDICIAL COMMITTEE OF PRIVY COUNCIL. THZ REV. ALFRED POOLE V. THE BISHOP OF LONDON. This morning the Judges of the Privy Connell consisted of Lord . Chelmsford, Sir John Coleridge, Lord Justice Knight Bruce, and Lord Justice Turner, who sat in the Council Chamber, Whitehall, for the purpose of hearing the appeal of the Rev. Alfred Poole, whose licence as curate of St. Barnabas was some time since suspended by the Bishop of London, and the decision afterwards confirmed on appeal to the Archbishop of Canterbury. Dr. Phillimore, in opening the case for the appellant, said this was an appeal on behalf of the Rev. Alfred Poole against the decision of the Archbishop of Canterbury con firming-the revocation- of his lieence.- - The Bishop of Lon don revoked Mr. Poole's licence on account of some alle gations that were made against him, under the 98th section of the act applying to such cases. Upon this decision Mr. Poole appealed to the Arch bishop of Canterbury, who conceived that by merely looking into the case he was complying with the terms of the act, and confirmed the bishop's decision. Mr. Poole urged that this was not a heanng, as provided by the eleventh section of the act, and requested that he might be heard in due form, and a decision duly pronounced. The archbishop refused to accede to this request, and Mr. Poole found it necessary to appeal to the Court of Queen's Bench for a mandamus. This was granted, and the archbishop held a Court at Lambeth Palace, when the Dean of Arches (Dr. Lushing ton) pronounced the judgment of the Court, and the Arch bishop officially added these words—" With the able assaist ance of my learned assessor I have given the merits and circumstances of this appeal my most serious and careful consideration. I am of opinion that the proved and admttted allegations alleged in the language of the statute are good and reasonable causes for the revoca tion of the license and that the Lord Bishop of London has exercised a sound discretion in revoking the same ; and I am further of opinion that the course pursued by the appellant is not in accordance with the rubric or the doc trines of the Church of England, but most dangerous and likely to produce most serious mischief to the cause of morality and religion." The question to-day before the court was whether, against the sentence so delivered, there did not lie an appeal to the Crown. It was a matter of the greatest importance, as the revocation of the licence by the Bishop of London tended to prevent him from obtaining preferment in any other diocese ; and the question so deeply affected the 6,000 or 7,000 clergymen who were connected with the Church, He (Dr. Phillimore) had, in connection with this matter, to submit these propositions :-Ist. That proceed ings before the Archbishop of Canterbury were proceedings before the,Ecclesiastical Court. 2d. That from every EMT siastical Court there lay an appeal. 3d. That it was the I duty of the Crown to all ow parties facilities for prosecuting that appeal. Judgment has not yet been delivered.

The show of English wheat in to-day's market was very moderate. For good and fine samples there was a fair de mand at cult to Monday's curren c y, b ut damp parcels were very diffi quit. For foreign wheat—the supply of which was seasonably good—the inquiry ruled inactive ; nevertheless, no change took place in the quotations. Floating cargoes of grain supported last week's currency. There was a fair demand for barley, at very full prices. Fine malt maintained previous prices, but the denial - id was much restricted. Oats commanded extreme rates, and the transactions, from want of supply, were almost wholly confined tc4 gra naried samples. Beans, peas, and flour moved off slowly at MondAY . , 's quo tations.
