MONEY MARKET D CODIMEP.CIAL INTELLIGENCE. CITY, Two O'CLOCK. The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday closed very firmly, and compared with Friday prices were buoyant. The sales were estimated at 8,000 bales, 1,000 of which were taken for export, and 2,000 on speculation. In the Railway Share Market a de cided improvement again took place. The withdrawals of gold from the Bank must be causing a reduction in the stock of bullion, for the revenue collections aro now being prosecuted with less vigour, the quarter being over, and it has not transpired that any large amount of coin has been received during the last few days from the coun try. A further sum of 70,0001. was sent away yesterday for transmission to France, and un less the gold by the Royal Charter, now 87 days at sea, soon becomes available, other withdrawals will be effected. The next weekly return published by the Bank will, no doubt, show a falling off, but owing to the excessive stock of the precious metals still on hand, a little temporary decline should not excite uneasiness. The extraordinary glut of gold in all the great banking institutions of the world — viz., England, France, and America, may look ler Y Pleasing, but unfortunately it indicates commercial prostration. A little reactionary movement, both in the bullion and the other securities, must therefore be regarded with sa tisfaction rather than otherwise. In most di- rections the amount of paper now offered for dis count is much larger than it was a short time Since, and the general inquiry will no doubt con tinue to expand, as a recovery in trade seems pro bable. By the arrival of the European, from Australia, at Alexandria, with 138,1081. in gold, we learn that the following vessels are en route for England, viz• . : --The Shooting Star, for Liverpool, with 41,598 oz. ; the Heather- Bell, for London, with 75 )792 oz ; and the Eagle, for Liverpool, with 25,945 oz. The dollars by the last West India steamer have been purchased at ss. Oid. per oz. The half-yearly meeting of the Colonialßank has just been held, at which a favourable report was read, and which stated that the profits of the half year were 30,768/. 12s. 7d., after providing for all bad and doubtful debts. The effects of the late crisis had not been very severe, which was foreseen by the directors at the last meeting. The accounts 'Were as follow : Specie £256,040 14 3 Due to Bank 934,228 11 10 Do. in current accounts Do. in London 1,166,567 3 2 Bank premises, &c. Being total assets £2,383.923 7 7 A dividend of 3 per cent. for the half-year, or at the rate of 6 per cent. per annum, was agreed to, and the report was adopted. There is rather a buoyant market for English Securities to-day, a rise of i t per cent. having oc curred, and the tendency is further to advance owing to an increased demand for stock. The speculators appear to be more inclined to operate, and several purchases for the August account are reported. Consols have been 951, buyers. and 951 for A ugust, and are now quoted 951 1 for the pre sent account, and 951 96 for August. The New 3 per Cents. are steady at 951 96, and Reduced An nuities, 951 96. India Stock is 221 ; Bank Stock, 222 ; and the March Exchequer Bills, 345. prem.

ELTON moved an address for copy of a me morial addressed to the Secretary of Sate for the War Department by quartermasters placed on half pay pre vious to die date of ihe declaration of war with Russia : and, return of the names of quartermasters who would be elitit!ed to the benefi - a of the Royal Warrant of the 17th day of December, 1855, if the prayer of the memo rialists were granted ; stating the age and length of service, as well as the war services of each of the said quartermasters. The motion war agreed to. NEW TRIAL IN CRIMINAL CASES BILL. Mr. M'MAHON moved the second reading of this bill, providing for new trials in oases where it was sup posed a mistake on the part of a judge or jury bad led to a wrong conviciion. He proposed that the appeal should be to the Court of Queen's Bench. Mr. WALPOLE said he would not oppose the se cond reading, but he thought the bill would require very material alterations in detads. He must not be understood to be responsible for the principle of the bill. Mr. J. D. FITZGERALD considered that it would be very unwise to allow the bill to be read a second time. Mr. MILES contended the bill was unnecessary He moved the second reading of the bill this day six months. Mr: ROE BUCK said that all human tribunals were fallible, and, recognising that fact, they allowed a man in a civil case involving a few trumpery pounds to ap peal to the House of Lcrds, but in a criminal case, where a man was tried for his life, there was but one trial and no appeal, except a review of the case by Mr. Waddington, the Horne Secretary's secretary, sitting in his back parlour. He supported the bill. Mr. 13. BLACKM.ORE opposed the bill. [LEFT SPEAKING.] SHIPIUG.—(This Day.)

The Gorgon and the Niagara arrived this morn ing. Three attempts have been made to lay down the electric telegraph cable. The Agameamon and Velorons are expected hourly. The squadron ex perienced vary bad weather during their cruise. On the 13th of June a heavy gale sprang up, during which they were separated, but all met again at the rendczvoty, 52 2 lal., 33 18 long. On the first attempt about 10 miles of cable was lost, on the second about 120 miles, and on the 28th the cable was again joined, and about 250 miles were paid out, when communication ceasing to be received the cable was parted, and the Niagara and the Gorgon proceeded to this place. Much to their surprise, the Agamemnon and Valorous were not in before them, as tl:ey 11. Ad more ti - Au 200 miles start. The Agamemnon is report,cl to have suf ferei some damages in the gale. The following ver , h,n, which appears in a second edition of the Cork Reporter of yesterday, way not be without, interest : _ ...... " The__ Niaesia and Gorgon, attached to the squadron for the laying of the Transatlantic cable, ! arrived in Queenstown at an early hour this more , ing. We regret having to announce that the object of the expedition has for the present failed, and we shall now give our realers such particulars of the events which occurred in the course of the ' undertakieg as we have been able to collect. The Agamemnon and her tender the Valme us, and the Niagara and her tender the Gorgon, sailed from Flym.eith on the 10th of J tine ; eaee of the }peat vowel. ceiryiug about 1,500 wils of ceb,e, with a new and improved apparatus for paying it out, whic - n:it wan calculated would have allowed for ail , st sit or unequld motion of the ships, as the very speed of the vessels r egide ed by automatic arrange- ' mente the rate at which the coil was to be die- charged. After having been three days at sea the expedition was overtaken by a fearful gale, which . continued without intermission for nine days. Ou the seventh day of this heavy weather the ships, which coutiuued to keep together, had to part com pany, and the Agamemnon was obliged to scud be foie the weed for 36 hours ; her o :als got adrift, and a coil of the cable shifted, so that . her captain_ for some tithe entertained serious apprehensions for her safety, and from ' the immense strain her waterways were forced "pen, and one of her ports Was broken. Two of her sailors were severely ii - jured, and one of the marines lost his reason from fright. Yet such was the consummate skill, good seamanship, and intrepidity of her commander, Capt. Priddie, that he was enabled to bring her to the appointed rendezvous, lat.' 52 deg. 2 win., long. 33 deg. 18 min. The Niagara rode out the storm gallantly, having only carried away her jib- ' boom and one wing of the figurehead, the great American eagle. "All the vessels having at length arrived at their central point of junction, the first splice of the cable was made on the 26th. After having paid out two and a-half miles each, owing to an accident on board . the Niagara, the cable parted. The ships having met, the splice was made good, and they commenced to give out the cable a second time ; but after they had each paid out 40 miles it was reported that the current was broken, and no communication could be made between the ships. Unfortunately, in this instance the breakage must have occurred at the bottom, as the electricians, from the fine calculations which their sensitive in strumen's allow them to make, were able to decline such to have been the fact, even before the vessels came together again. Having cast off this loss, they met for the third time and recovered the connexion of the cable on the 28th. They then started afresh, and the Niagara having paid out over 150 miles of cable, all on board entertained the most sanguine anticipations of success, when the fatal announce , ment was made upon Tuesday, the 29th, et 9 p.m., that the electric current had ceased to flow. As the necessity of abandoning the project for the present was now only too manifest, it was consi dered that the opportunity might as well be availed of to test the strength of the cable. Accordingly, this immense vessel, with nl! her stores, au., was ellowed te se- La,; to idle cattle, and, iu addition, a strain of four tons was placed upon the breaks, yet, although it was blowing fresh at the time, the cable held her as if she bad been et anchor for .over an hour, when a heavy pitch of, the sea snapped the rop6, and the Niagira, bore .away for this port. Before starting an arrangement was made, that should any accident occur in giving out the cable before the ships should have gone 100 miles, they should return to their starting place in mid ocean ; but that in case that distance should have been exceeded before any casualty should happen, they should make for ,Queenstown. In eccordance with this understanding, the Nia-. gara, having made 109 wiles before the mishap, re turned to this port. Upon her homeward way she must have passed the Agamemnon, but owing to the heavy fogs which prevailed for the greater por tion of that time, she missed seeing or gaining: any tidings of her. "As the Agamemnon has not yet arrived, al though her destination was directed towards this shore, it is conjectured that she might not have delivered the arranged quantity of coil at the time of i's failure, and may have 'consequently returned to their place of meeting. which will unavoidably protract the suspense which must necessarily be felt, as, until she be spoken with, nothing definite can be leareel as to the occasion of this disaster. The two principal electricians, Dr. Santy and Mr. Lasses, on board the Niagara, are inclined to be lieve that the accident occurred on boatel the Aga memnon, which, as it would implicate a faulty ar rangement of some of the apparatus, would still leave hope of the ultimate success of the undertak ing, whereas, if the separation has occurred at the bot'om, its effects will be greatly to damp, if not deter, the enterprising spirit of the directors from persevering in this gigantic project. Should nothing be heard of her consort the Niagara will, after coal ing, proceed to her ocean station, having still on board about 1,300 miles of the cable,l which, sup posing that the other vessel has retained a similar amount, would still admit of the junction being completed, and allow 30 per cent. for casualties. • In this last trial some 500 miles of the rope was lost, and when it is calculated that it is roughly estimated that the value of the cable is about 1001. a mile, it will be seen that the sacrifice up to the present has not been so extensive as might at first sight have b:en supposed." The Cork Examiner, of yestAnlay, supplies the following particulars of the parting of the Atlantic cable :—" This morning at seven o'clock the Niagara, American corvette, andthe Gorgon, Eng lish war steamer, entered our harLour, with the unwelcome intelligence of a new failure in the at tempt to carry out this gt e,t undertaking. It ap pears the squadron Lad Lot to a point in the At lantic about 1,000 miles to the ivfst of Ireland, when they fell in with a heavy gale, in which the Agamemnon capsizd her portion of the cable. In the effort to get it right again it is supposed it got what is technically called a kink, which was the cause of the subsequent disaster. On joining the cable for the purp se of paying out the weather wai fine and everything lool<ed promising. The Agamemnon steered east, towards Ireland, and the Niagara west, for Newl.undland. at board the latter vessel the inAchiaery was found to work ad mirably, and the betweeu the two ships went on without intermision a nd the highe st hopes of success were entertained. On the 29th of June, however, when 250 miles of cable had been paid out, tho'e superintending 'the work on board the Niagara found the signals to cease, and became aware that something wrong must have occuraed on board their consort, and the continuity of tho current having ceased they cut the cable. The Niagara bore away for Queenstown, which is the appointed rendezvous. The reason of the ships coming back to Queenstown Was the running short of their coals, owing to the quantity consumed dur ing the experiment." MARKET NEW.-- (This Dal. ) CORN EXCHANGE. An unusually limited supply of English wheat was on sale in to-day's market, and the dessand for all kinds was rather active, at fully Monday's improvement in value. Fine . wheats, had they been on offal-, would have produced snore money. We had a ,teady demand for foreign wheat ; but as most of the holders refused to cell, except on higher terms, the amount of business was only moderate. There was a fair sale for barley and malt, and prices were well supported. Oats, the supply of which was only moderate, were firm, and again rather dearer. Beans, peas, and flour sold at fully Monday's currency. ARRIVALS TUIS WEL Wheat. Barley. Malt. 450 30 I 2.710 Oats. Flotr. 1,250 English Irish Foreign..... 2,060 2,450 5,360 sky. brlw BOROUGH HOP.

(From the Report of the Registrar General.) The deaths registered in London, which had been 1,092 in the previous week, were 1,241 in the week ending Saturday, July 3. In the ten years 1848-57 the avezage number of deaths in the weeks corresponding with last week was 1,111 ; but as the deaths of last week occurred in an increased population, theyshould be compared with the ave rage after the latter is raised in proportion to the increase, a correction which will make it 1,222. The comparison shows that the mortality as re turned for last week is rather in excess cf the eve rage .as calculated for the end of June. The deaths itz London during the week would have amounted at the healthy rate to 799 ; the deaths in excess of this number are 442. The vio dew hs proiuced by evident mechanical, chemical, rn i physical c Loses are 108, they are registered in more than their due weekly proportion, as is usual at the end of the quarter, and they constitute part of the excess ; but a large majority of the ,442 deaths are unnatural, and caused by impure air and other imperfect sanitary conditions.' The cesspools, sewers, and gullyholes, the dirt in the streets, 'and the dirt iu the Thames are the chief sources of the poison in the atmosphere, which might be main tained cimparatively pure by arrangements tide quate to the occasion. The progress of diarrheas is seen in the deaths from this disease during the last four weeks; They were successively 18, 31, 54, and (last week) 94. This last number has hot been attained in pre vious years so early in the season, for the average of corresponding week-4 is 34. The present r•tur contains also 11 deaths from cholera, only 4of which occurred am , ngst adults. One of these cases is returned as " cholera gravior,"•and occurred in the Christchurch sub-district of Mary, lebobe ; another as Asiatic cholera in Holloway. Scarlatina, including diphtheria,and "malignant sore throat," WAS fatal in 61 cases, al except 4 amopgst children. The disease has attacked with great sevei ity the family of an unbeneficed clergyman in Gloucester-terrace, Pimlico, whose wife arid four children have fallen under its violence. The deaths -of three - Of the children were re - corded in the'pre vitals week. The following note is from Mr. Croft, assiritank surgeon of the Dreadnought hospital ship :—"The two cases of fever reported by me on the 19th as having occurred on b tard rapidly recovered, and no fresh cas, has arisen. The health of the patitnts g-nerally is very satisfactory. how ever, I learn from res . deots on board, and others passing a large portion of each day on the water, that they are affected at times with nausea, loss of appetite, and inclination to diarrhoea, though none of them have been so severely affected as to require moles' aid." Since the 15th ult. four persons have died in London from sunstroke. Toe deaths of two men, aged respectively 94 and 96 years, and of two women aged 95 and 96, were registered last week. _ - Last week the births of 828 boys and 775 girls, in all 1,603 children, were registered in London. In the ten corresponding weeks of the years 1848-57 the average number was 1,605. At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean heght of the barometer the week was 29v954 in. The barometrical readings rose from 29.85 in. at the beginning of the week to 30'07 in. at the end of it. The mean temperature of the week was 58 . 6 deg., which is 2.8 deg. below the average of the Fame week in 43 yews (as determined by. Mr. Glaisher). The mean daily temperature was below the average on every day except Wednesday, and on the last two days it was 6 deg. below the average. The highest points in the sun and the shade were attained on Wednesday,.. the former 104 . 5 deg., the latter 79 deg. ;• tLe lowest point 45.3 deg. on Monday. The range of temperature iu the • shade was therefore 33.7 deg. The mean daily rangq. w%:l-, 2: ,7; Thu mean teiiirr!Au:e water of the Thames was 66 u utg., which exceeds the mean temperature of the air by so much as 8 deg. The difference be tween the mean dew point temperature and air temperature was alto great, viz , 13.5 deg. ; it shows the dryness of the air. The mean degree of humidity of. the air. was 62; on Monday the humidity was only 54, complete saturation being represented by 100. On five days the wind was generally in the north-west ; on the last two it blow from the north. No rain was measured by the gunge, though a few drops fell on Friday and Saturday.
