CITY, Two o'Ceocie. During the past few days only a moderate busi ness has been done in the Foreign and Colonial sealer's Markets, many of th e l ea d ing b ro k ers an d uealers having been absent in consequence of Ascot l ' a ces. There have been few public sales of most of the leading articles, but privately prices have generally been well supported. Tea continues at h all rates. Sugar of the finer qualities, fit for ho me Consumption, is steady, but inferior descrip teok4 are a shade lower. Rice, rum, and fruit has exhibited little alteration in values, and saltpetre and tallow have been firmer. The latter article is (Illoted--spot, 525. 6d. to 525. 9d ; June delivery, 64 3i. to 525. 6d. ; July to September, 51s. ; and last three months, 50s. 6d. per cwt. The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday closed rather firmer, and prices were well maintained. The sales were estimated at 10,000 bales, 1,500 of wi nch were taken on speculation, and 1,500 for elPortation. In the Railway Share Market there wad no animation, and quotations declined. The 'withdrawals of gold from the Bank of Eng land Yesterday, for exportation to the continent, were about 40,0001. The specie brought by the West India packet, La. Plata, has been delivered, and the gold, amounting to about 102,7001., has also been taken for the continent. The Tagus, arrived from the Peninsula, has "nveyed specie valued at 54,2111. The arrival of the Australian mail, via Suez, is awaited with much interest, because it is expected t ° report the departure from the colony of several yealels with specie. A few ships are already over due) and their arrival, together with what may be received from America and Mexico Will ensure a .large aggregate supply, and Prevent any serious declension in the Bank's metallic reserves. Although the Bank have announced no alter ation i n their terms of discount, they have iatimated their willingness to make advances during the period when the transfer books are closed, viz , from this day to the 14th July. The terms upon which this accommodation will be Panted are 3 per cent., and loans will be made on 'Ong dated commercial paper of six months' cur znney, as well aa.on Government Securities. A mass of commercial paper will f a ll d ue t o -d ay, being the 4th. No failures are apprehended, ample P r°7lll. kon having apparently been made. Money in L ombard-street is obtainable at 24 per cent., and the Stock Exchange it is lent at 1i and 2 per cent, The variation in the English Stock Market to dav has been limited, and very few bar ga i ns are ee orded. Speculation is conducted on a most me n berg scale, and the attendance of th e 'eritbers is much smaller than usual. Con -4:18 'are marked 97 1 and 974 for money ; a 97 44 and 974 for account.

If we had any conrentions with foreign powers it ought to be com municated to Parliament, as well as the demands, it any, that hal been made on China. (11 , 1 w.) Parlia ment had a right to ask what was oar actual relation with Gina, and the policy her Atitsty'F, Go verament was pursuing in rderence to that country. N. article of the treaty wits re.pect tn opium had been notiriouvly vi , :lated, no doubt with the col,curreilce of +be people of China. It was desirable to revise tka , , treaty. He only asked f.)r a general statement of our policy towards that country, as it was difficult to under stand the objects of a mission that appeared to be going beyond its critical purpose and intention. THE DEANERY OF YORK. Mr. W. EWART inquired of the Chancellor of the Exchequer for what special reasons the recent appoint ment had been made to the Deanery of York? Lord DOTHAM complained of questions of so wide a , range being put. It would probably be a matter for the hon. gentleman to explain why his constituents had se lected him over other candidates, and it 'night be not b-cause he possessed better qualifications than the others, but for special reasons resting with his constituents, and were the house to call upon the right bon. baronet the member for Wells to state the grounds on which he had made appointments—(laughter)—during the five years he bad been in office, it would be found to be a document that would excite as great a curiosity as any document that had been pre sensed to the house. Tee present Dean of Yo:k was a man of blameless and irreproachable character. He was unconnected with any extreme party in the Church, and preserved in a proper manner the aignity and appearance of the deanery. He (Lord Hotbam) had come to the conclusion in this matter that her Ma jesty's Government bad faithfully and judicially been advised, and acted on such advice, in the appointment they had made. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said the appointment was made for the advantage of the public and on grounds of public benefit. With regard to China, in consequence of the small time her Majesty's Government had been in power it was impossible for them to give further information on the subject than was already known. The late Government gave Lord Elgin very wisely a wide discretion. In all pro bability he was not aware of the change of her Majesty's Government. and having the utmost confi dence in Lard Etgin, her Majesty's Government had continued in him that wide discretion of action given to him by their predecessors. It was impossible for him to give the motives that had induced Lord Elgin to leave Canton and go to Shanghai. He (the Chancellor of the Exchequer) had no doubt Lord E-gin bad adopted a wise and proper course in doing so, but beyond that he could give the house no information. He was also unable to give the h , ,u , e any information on the demands made by Lord Etgin, that rest nn with the noble lard in the wide discretion that had been given to him. Ilia obj'ct was to effect a direct commu nication bet ween this coon ry and the highest, autbortie. in China. England was joined in the beginning with France, and afterwards with the United States, and Russia had lately given a pat tial concurrence in what we were doing in China. soon as possible, and con sistent with our allies, he would give the house further information on the subject. A mes,age bad been sent .n Lord Elgin to return to Canton to meet the Chinese Commissioner, Mr. BBIGEIT complained that the Chancellor of the Exchequer as usual bad answered the question of the noble lord without giving any actual information. He had not a seat in Parliament when the question first came before Parliament, and he had had no opportunity of stating his opinion on the origin of the complicated affairs they now foaud themselves involved in. He entirely concurred in the course his hon. friend the late member for the West Riding took on the occasion alluded to. Two unfortunate things resulted from fo reign co-partnerships in matters of this kind. One was, that the course of negotiations was by such alliances to a large extent taken uut of the hands of the English Government; and, secondly, that, according to the theory of the right honourable gentleman, the House of Commons, is co.is-que - ice of inch alliances, could know nothing about the matter be cause having allies we must act with them. (Hear, hear.) They did not know what object France had in j lining us in the affair of China, any more than they did their own object, and it was not to be expected the House of Commons would wait until the negotiations were at an end to know what our objects were towards China. (Hear, hear.) The last war with China did no good beyond opening Canton to the commercial world, and this war was likely to ba less productive if these complicated affairs were to be con tinued. He warned her Majesty's Glvernment against continuing a war that originated with their predeces sors, and by adopting a straightforward course they would earn the respect of the people. Sir J. PAKINGTON said there were between 60 and 70 vessels, including between 18 and 20 gun-boats in the East, and there were rather more than 12,000 men there. That included the whole of the naval forces in the East Indies and Caine. That force would be re duced at the earliest practical moment. ARREST OF CAPTAIN JUDIKINS—THE SLAVE TRADE AND COMMISSIONER YEH, Mr. HORSFALL asked the Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether her Majesty's Govern• ment bad received any intelligence from New York of the arrest of Captain Judkins r.f the Royal Mail steamer Persia ; and, if so, whether the circumstances of the case warranted such a procedure on the part of the American authorities. Mr. WILSON asked the Under-Secretary of St tte for Foreign Affairs whether there was any objection to lay upon the table copies of correspondence between the British Government and that of the United StateQ, upon the measures taken fir the suppression of the Slave Trade ; and, if not, when such papers would be pro duced I Mr. LAURIE asked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Aff.irs how Commissioner Yeh WAS to be disposed of ; whether he was to be cmfint.d as a pri soner in India or in Enland Mr. S. FITZGERALD said her M;jesfy's Govern ment had not received any official information on the arrest of Captain Judkins, and of course he could give them no official information respec'ing that circumstance, and they w.re unable to say if that arrest was justifi able or not. With reference to the qu , s•ion of the hon. member for Devonport. Her M,j,•sty' s Govern ment would give the correspondence reterrati to, espe cially as the American Goverornent had published their virsion of the matter. Her Maj,isty's Government had been in correspondence with the A merican Government and expressed their regret should anything have occurred, but her Majesty's Government did not think it fit to lay secret correspondence at present before the house. Orders bad be.n sent out for an inquiry into the circum stances of the Cuban affair, and also instructions to our officers there to use the Brea est caution in exer cising the power with which they had been en trusted. With reference to the third question, it was found desirable to remove Commissioner Yeti :rom China, and he was taken t ) Calcutta, where he now re mained, and he (Mr. Fitzgerald) feared the hon. gentle man who bad put the question would not have an oppor• trinity of Peeing Commissioner Yrh in this country. (Laughter.) STATE OF THE THAMES. Mr. GRIFFITH raked the Chief Commissioner of Works whether he was not aware that, in any conside ration of the state of the water of the Thames, the whole que,tion at isssue was that rf the effect upon the purity of the air which might be producel by the liberation of wises injurious to health from the water. (The hon. member addressed the house amidst loud and repeated cries of "Oh, oh "aojourn," "order," and much laughter.) Lord J. MANNERS admitted his inability to answer the question, and suggested he should address a letter to the chairman of the committee now sitting, with re• ference to the Thames, staving his willingness to give valuable evidence on the subject. RIOTS AT BELFAST. Mr. J. FITZGERALD called the attention of the house to the recent riots at Belfast, and asked the Cuief Secretary for Ireland whether it was the intention of Government to propose any measure for the better pre servation of the peace and protection of property in that borough. (LEFT SITTING.) THE VICTORIA CROSS. (Front the Gazette of this erening.) WAR-OFFICE, PALL-MALL, JUNE 2. The Queen has been graciously pleased to signify bet intention to confer the Decoration of the Victoria Cross on the undermentioned Officers and Non-Commissioned Officers of her Majesty's Army, who have been recom mended to her Majesty for that decoration, in accordance with the rules laid down in her Majesty's Warrant of the 29th of January, 1856, on account of Acts of Bravery per formed by them in the Crimea during the late War, as re corded against their several names, viz : Serjeant Henry Ramage, 2d Dragoons, for having, at the battle of Balaklava, galloped out to the assistance of Private McPherson, of the same regiment, on perceiving him surrounded by seven Russians, when by his gallantry he dispersed the enemy, an I saved his comrade's life ; for having, on the same day, when the Heavy Brigade was rallying, and the enemy retiring, finding his horse would not leave the ranks, dismounted and brought in a prisoner from the Russian lines. Also for having dismounted on the same day, when the Heavy Brigade was covering the retreat of the Light C ,valry, and lifted from his horse Private Gardiner, who was disabled from a severe fra'ture of a round shot. Ser geant Ratnage then carried him to the rear from under a very heavy cross fire, thereby saving his life, the spot where he must inevitably have fallen having been imme diately afterwards covered by the Russian cavalry. • Brevet-Major Mark Walker, 3d Regiment (late of the 30th Regiment), for having, at Inkerrnan, distinguished hinsself in front of his Regiment, by jumping over a wall, in the face of two battalions of Russia❑ infantry, which were marching towards it, for the purpose of encouraging his comrades by his example to advance against such heavy odds, which they did, and succeeded in ()riving back both battalions. Colour-Serjeant George Gardiner, 57th Regiment, for distinguished coolness and gallantry upon the occasion of a sortie by the ene m y, and whe n h e was act i ng as orderly serjeant to the field-officers of the trenches—left attack upon Sebastopol—in having rallied the covering parties which had been driven in by the Russians, thus regaining and keeping possession of the trenches. Also, for un flinching and d evo t e d courage in the attack on th© Roden, on the 18th June, 1855, in having remained, and en couraged others to remain in the holes made by the explosion of shells, from whence, by making parapets of the dead bodies of their comrades, they kept up a continuous fire until their am munition was exhausted, thus clearing the enemy from the parapet of the Redan. This was done under a fire in which nearly half the officers, and a third of the rank and file of the Party of the regiment were placed hors de combat. Surgeon James Mouat, C. 8.. late of 6th Dragoons (now Deputy-Inspector -General of Hospitals), for having volun tarily proceeded to the assistance of Lieut.-C.donel Mortis, C. 8., I.7th Lancers, who was lying dangerously wo - atuled iu expov3d situation after the retreat of the Light Caval:7 at the bmtle of Balaklava, at2.d having drez , secl that officer wounds in presence of, and und er a heavy fire from the enemy.

THIRD READINGS. On the motion of Lord REDESDALE the Trent Navigation bill, and the London Dock Company bill were read a third irne and passed. CHANCERY AMENDMENT BILL. The LORD CHANCELLOR brought up the report of the committee 071 the Chancery Amendment Bill. The report was received. - SALE OF POISONS RILL. The Earl of DERBY moved the second reading of this bill, which was mainly founded on the recommen dations of a committee which rat last year on the sub ject. It was sought by the present bill to increase the dif ficulty of persons obtaining poisons for criminal purposes, and to prevent the accidents that frequently arose, partly from accident, ignorance, or carelessness. The bill con tained stringent clauses with respect to the sale of poisons. After the passing of the act no poisons were t o b e so ld to unknown person s u n less in the presence of a witness. A party wishing to purchase poison would have to do so in the presence of a witness, and both would then have to enter their names and addresses and the quantity bought in a book to be kept for purpose. Another enactment of the bill was that no person, cxcept of full age, ce,,uld be allowed to sell poisons. The four poisons laudanum, opium, tartar emetic, and ehloroform were not to be dealt in so stringent a manner as other known poisonous substances, because it would in come degree interfere with trade and manufacture. Another clau-e enacted that no person should sell poison except he had received a license to do so by a properly organised body. This board of examiners it was proposed sheuld con sist of three pereons,a member of the Pharmaceutical So ciety, a member of the College of Physicians, and a member of the College of Surgeons, who would have power, after the person apply for permission to sell, had undergone astriet exam i nat i on, to a license to do so. With respect to thews persons now se lli n g poisons, the bill laid down that persons who had been in prac tice one year prior to the passing should be allowed to do so for five years, after which time they were 1 required to undergo an examination, then to re ceive the licence in thei manner laid down in the bill. There Was also a power given in the act to certain properly appoiLted persons to enter the places in order to ascertain whether the provisions of the bill were being strictly carried out. The bill also laid down a certain amount of penalties that were to be infi;cted according to the number of times the act was transgressed. Eirl GRANVILLE regretted that opium was treated differently to other poisonous substances, but he thought that with a very few alterations the bill was well cal culated to remedy the evil that at present existed. Lord CAMPBELL heartily supp , rted the motion. The bill was then read a sec)nd time. INDIA. In reply to the Marquis of BREADALLtNE, The Earl of DERBY said the power of the Governor- General in India was supreme over all matters civil and military. There ,4 as no reason to suppose that any but the and best C. 3,1 understanpbendivg exist e d b e t ween L or d C anning Sir in Ca l, The Marquis of LANSDOWNE expressed his grati fication at the announcement made by the noble earl.

PaNANG, ‘ A prii 15.—The ship Julia, of Bombay, put in yesterday -hort of provisions and water, she having been 66 days from Bombay to Singapore, with convicts. Oa her passage she was ac nearly taken by the convicts as pus ibis, and was only saved by the prompt and ener getic mea , ures taken by Captain Fettick, her commander. I thick his conduct beyond all praise and dk serving the greatest publicity. It appears Capt. Fettick was going to br(akfast when he heard the noise, and report of the convicts being adrift ; he at once seized a double-bar. relied gun, w hich he fortunately had loaded, and ran to the main hatch, where ho saw the most desperate con vict of the whole gang using a bayonet freely to all about him. Capt. Fettick called to him, and on the fel low looking up and seeing Capt. Fettick, took deliberate aim at him with a musket be bad seized ; Capt. Fettick therefore let fly, and shot him dead. Another convict, a little farther cfl, was also making free use of a bayonet, when Capt. Fettick gave him the contents of hie other barrel, and dropped him a corpse. It is hard to say what might have b een th e resu lt b a d the Chiefta i n armed, and hove in si g ht, as t he conv i c t s were so well would have soon off,hadtheiriro ns hthem.
