3 10NEY MARKET AND CIT. IF NEWS. CITY, Two o'CLocu. During the last few days there has been rather Less animation in the Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets, although previous prices have, in most instances, been fully maintained. At the public sa les of tea the biddings were active and previous roes were obtai ne d f or th e b e tt er d escr i p ti ons: agars were dull, particularly British West India ; holders, h owever, were • firm in their demands r previous rates. In the better descriptions of coffee the dealings have been numerous, and full v alues have been obtained. Rice continued in active request at an advance of 3d. to 6d. per cwt., and for cocoa extreme prices were realised. Fruit a nd spices were in fair request, and a steady busi ness has been done in saltpetre. The Tallow karket has shown symptoms of inactivity, but few sPeeolative dealings have been entered into, and the demand for immediate consumption has slightly fallen off. P.Y.C. on the spot has declined to 578. 9 d. per- cwt. In the Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday busi ness continued rather active, and prices exhibited no change of importance. The sales were estimated at 10,000 bales. The Railway Share Market Closed with some animation, and quotations further improved. Notice has been given that tenders will be re ebived for debentures, bearing 6 per cent. interest, and having five years to run, secured on the ample revenues of British Guiana. The debentures are in s ouls of £5OO and £l,OOO each. Continued activity and firmness are the most Prominent features - of the Money Market at the pres e nt moment, and very little improvement is expected until the dividends are paid at the Bank of England'. At the extraordinary meeting of the Commercial Dock Company to-day, Mr. D. T. Morgan pre l'ided, when the report, of which 'the following are ext tuts, was adopted :—" The accounts for the yam ' ending 31st December, 1859, have been pre pared by Messrs. Quilter, Ball, Jay, and Co., and sho w a balance to -credit of the ' rest' or reserve Ipflt and loss account, of L 59,395 6s. 11d. The h ire ctors are ' of opinion that the period 44 43 now • arrived when the reserve fund t ° tad be appropriated among the proprie :4 ; as from the different mode in, which the H t shiess of the company is now conducted, the °lt ting capital represented by ' debts due to the ' 111 Pany' is materially diminished; and also, hav es two entrances from the river for ships, there ' nu longer the necessity to provide against the risk . 4 d exp ense t o w hi c h th e compan y m i g ht h ave been eAble when the entire business was dependent on one rance. The directors, therefore, immediately on te eeivin g ti the balance-sheet from the accountants, et erWned on calling an extraordinary meeting of the Proprietors for this purpose ; and they now re nlkend that they be empowered to deal with the ,rest' or reserved fund by transferring.the sum of 61 ,441 from that fund to the present capital ac e:l44 of £514,410, by a bonus of 10 per cent. in h c ! Stook, in' respect of each proprietor's present °4l ing, in both old and new stock, which will then u se the t o tal amount of capital £565,851. This , w ill still leave the sum of £7,954 6s. 11d. to the 'tedit of the' rest' account." t T he market for Public Securities remains in a II " but quiet state, the few operations recorded °‘ havin g l e d t o any variation o f i m p or tance.

Mr. Hotten said that about a fortnight ago the prisoner entered his shop, two , gentlemen being there at the time, and asked some question and left without making a purchase. The next day he missed the two books produced, a splendid edition'of " Bewicre's Birds," and of the value of £3. He mentioned his loss to the trade, and yesterday Mr. Heath, of Oxford-street, bookseller,• called on him and gave him such information as led to the apprehension of the prisoner, who he was positive was the same person as called at his shop the day before the books were missed. ' Mr. William Heath, bookseller, of 497, Oxford-street, said that on the fith March the prisoner, producing the two books,. asked him to purchase them, and as he asked three and a half guineas, which was near the value, he was thrown off his guard, and purchased them, thinking, in fact, he was in the trade, at the same time giving him £2 108. for them. He (Mr. Heath) afterwards heard they were missed from Mr Hotten's, and gave him information, and in con sequence of the prisoner having given an address—though he gave a number that was not correct—they made in quiries, but did not find him. While shutting up on the previous night the prisoner entered his shop, doubtless owing to the inquiries that had been made, and he then told him that he was charged with stealing two books in Picca dilly, and, admitting the, fact, asked that he might be for given. He then gave him into custody. Synan, 134 E, asked for a remand, as at his lodgings he found several other books, and as several booksellers bad lost books, he thought they might be identified. • The prisoner, who wears a fashionable Inverness cape, was then remanded. BLEACHING AND DYEING WORKS. For the credit of the House of Commons, for the credit of British humanity, and, we may say, for the credit of the British race, we rejoice that the Bill ter Limiting the Hours of Labour Of Women and Children in Bleaching and Dyeing Works has been carried by a very large majority. Amid the storms of European politics, amid the rise and fall of dynasties, amid Indian outbreaks or Transat lantic squabbles, the deep, silent stream, of our national life flows on with hardly a notice from politicians and their followers. Statesmen in quire hardly anything about the people of this country. The only test of their prosperity is their quiet, and it is concluded that the satis faction of hunger is sufficient to counterbalance every cause of dissatisfaction. Yet there may be high wages with the greatest misery, large ex ports with a deteriorating population, and beef and beer and gin consumed in houses where pale faces and distorted limbs give evidence of the ruin that is at work. The case of the women and children in the Bleaching Works deserves, and has at length received, the attention of the Legislature. The stories which are told of these poor creatures must move every One whose hea' A the bigotry of so called economical science has not turned into stone. The dullest imagi'dation must be moved by the tortures inflicted by grasping traders and ruthless parents on the young, the delicate, and the sickle ; and it re quires no philanthropical wisdom to teach us that a persistence in such a system is not only a disgrace to a Christian land, bit a national impolicy which will bring with it a Leavy retribution. It is a melancholy reflection that enlightenment and liberalism are entirely relative, and cannot be predicated of any class in the community. The Conservative gentry, as the possessors of the chief privileges of the country, have been for forty years taken as the type of stolid resistance to beneficial changes, and of blindness to philosophical demon strations. But their adversarie seem only to have been accidentally on the right side, for whenever an abuse is threatened which has hitherto been for their advantage no Tory can be stronger against interference and innovation. The bill on Wednesday was met by the usual argument about the impolicy of interfering between master and servant, between employer and employed. We need not go into this subject. We are a people of precedent. We are lawyers, even in, our highest acts of policy, and it will be sufficient for Mr. Turner and those who argue with him to say that the point has years ago been decided against them. The House of Commons, in reading the bill a second time by an immense majority, only refused to re verse the policy which has been embodied in the Ten Hours Act and other legislative measures. The people of England have solemnly proclaimed that the principle of Laissez faire shall not apply to the using up of human flesh and blood. That women and children are not free agents, and that society in its corporate capacity has a right to interfere for their protection, is a principle which it is now too late to combat. Indeed, the Legislature has gone much further, as in the Acts for the regulation of shipping, where seamen and emigrants are placed under the special protection of Government, and the doctrine of non interference in private contracts utterly repudiatel. Far above the advantage to society of material gain is the advantage of a vigorous and healthy people, and if a cancerous growth of dwarfishness and imbe cility is allowed to come into existence in any part of the island no one can tellwhat maybe the consequences in the next age. In spite of all the care of Parliament and all the labours of sensible and right-minded employers, the population of a Lancashire town cannot be contemplated without a certain misgiv ing. Watch them as they pour along the streets to dinner, observe their pale faces, their stoop, their thin hands and their somewhat unsteady gait, and it will glance across your mind that the first place in the commerce of the world may be too dearly purchased. But, whatever that may be, it is the universal testimony of the factory inspectors that the evil Would have been far worse without Go vernment interfeience. Mr. Horner, in his report for the half-year ending the 31st of October, 1859) says, " The experience of twenty-six years con vinces me that the legislative interference for the regulation of the labour of children, young persons, and women, in factories, is now viewed by the greatmajority of the occupiers as having done, and as continuing to do, a great amount of good without any interference with the prosperity of their trade." Mr. Horner is sanguine respecting the employment of children. He thinks that under the present law they are not overworked, that the three hours they get in school daily give them the rudiments of education, while their employment sharpens their faculties and gives them independence at an early age. Mr. Baker says,--" I think I can show that the Factory Acts have put an end to the premature decrepitude of the former long-hour workers ; that they have enlarged their social and intellectual privileges; that by making them masters of their own time they have given them a moral energy which is directing them to the eventual possession of political power, and that they have lifted them up high in the scale of rational beings, compared with that which they had attained in 1833." So much for the right of Parliament to interfere with the labour in factories, and for the consequences which this interference has produced. Tarn now to the bleaching-works. Nothing in the annals of Manchester or Stockport, in the days when Lord Ashley carried on his campaign against the millowners, can be compared with the revela tions which have been lately made respecting the condition of these abodes of misery. Mr. Roebuck only quoted a few of a whole series of heartrending narratives. We may give some further extracts. One youth says, "At times, if a sudden order has come, we have not been in bed more than 16 or 18 hours a week." Another says, "At my commencement" (when he was a child of 11) " I begun at. 12 o'clock on Sunday night and worked till 6 o'clock on Monday night. Then we started at 6 o'clock on Tuesday morning, and worked till 12 at night ; and we did this for two or three months without stopping." Wright Mather says, " I am foreman of the clamping room. In summer I have seen the room at 130 deg. ; in winter it is generally about 80 to 100 deg. We have come at 6 a.m. and worked till 9 p.m. all last week. . . There are four clamping rooms, and when they are all a-gate there are 16 females at work in them. In the other drying-place there are five boys; they work very often 16, 17, and 18 hours a-day. The heat is very great in that room—from 100 to 150 degrees, and that is under the mark." James Thomson, of Mr. Wallace's works, Burnbank; Glasgow, says, "We em ploy about 10 men and 40 females ; in sum mer some of the hands work occasionally from 6 a.m. to 12 p.m. the whole week through; we did this last summer several times. Three days we worked 20 hours each day. The ages of most of our girls are from 40 to 18. - . I feel when I am urging the females to work these long hours that I am doing what is not right, but I have beta urged to do it to get a lot of goods finished. Sometimes they stay here all night, and then we make a plaeesfor them to lie down upon in a store-room upon the pieces of goods unfinished. Sometimes 14 or more girls will pass tho night in this manner, after working 19 hours, and coming out of those hot places drip ping wet with perspiration, and their clothes wet through with it." We feel that we need add nothing to this horrible picture. If such revela tions do not rouse society to rescue these girls and these children from their living death, then do we as a natieta deserve the worst that the world can say of us, and an hour of just punishment will inevitably arrive.-■-Times. LAW INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day.) • HOUSE OF LORDS. —APPEAL. Peers present—The Lord Chancellor, Lord Cranworth, Lord Chelmsford, Lord Wensleydale, Lord Kingston, and other peers. THE ATTORNEY•GENERAL V. fIRUNNING. This was an appeal from a decision of the Court of Exchequer, declaring that legacy duty was not payable on £115,000, in respect of the agreement entered into to sell the freehold lands in question before the death of the testator. * Their lordships were unanimously of opinion that as the executor of the testator could only recover payment of the price of the purchase of the freehold virtuti o.fficii, that legacy duty was payable on the purchase money in terms of the statute. The Lord Chancellor reversed the decision of the Court of Exehquer, and entered up judgment for the Queen. 86 88 97 98 4,1 6 1 7 i 77 82 72 77 70 75 Par i 1) p i i d 15 d id i'd 1021 104 I *PI p 1005 10 1 1025 1021 205 215 36 3/ 93 94 73 74 85 87 73 75 72 74 991 100 Id 1 d 1 fd 12f 131 8f 81 d 95 100 95 100 , 95 100 91 94 971 92 88 981 92 94 id id 5 7 MISCELL. 10 Anglo-Mexican Mint 1000 Atlantis Tel.

SIR N. M. LOCKART, RAM. This was an appeal from a decision of the Court of Session, in Scotland, dismissing the appellant's action of reduction to set aside the aribiter's award of compensation to the respondent for lands taken for their line of railway. Their lordships were unanimously of opinion—lst. That the arbiter had not exceeded his powers in making the award. 2d. That the arbitration did not fall by the expira tion of three months, nor by the decease of one of the par ties. And, 3d. That the arbiter was entitled to award com pensation for prospective damage. The Lord Chancellor affirmed the decision of the Court of Session, and dismissed the appeal with costs. SHERIFFS' COURT. (Before Mr. Kerr.) NECESSARIES TO MINORS-CAUTION TO TRADESMEN BARRY V.

The quantity of English wheat received fresh up, to-day, was only moderate. Although the attendance of millers was by no means numerous, the trade ruled steady, and Monday's improvement in value was well supported in every instance. We were well supplied with foreign wheat, almost wholly ex•granary. Good and fine samples were held for more money; but the demand was somewhat restricted. Inferior parcels commanded very little attention. Very little barley, either English or foreign, was on the stands, and the demand for it ruled firm, at extreme cur rencies. Malt was in good supply, and heavy request. Prices, however, were supported. Oats were scarcer, and in steady request, at full quota. tions. Both beans and peas were fire in price ; and the value of flour showed a tendency to advance. ARRIVALS THIS WEEK Wheat. Barley. Malt. Oats.
