MONEY MARKET AND CITY NEWS. CITY, Two o'CLocx. The diminution in the inquiry for money has induced bankers and brokers to make a slight re laxation in their terms, and first-class bills having only a short time to run, continue to be negotiated a fraction below the Bank of England minimum, but at the same time extreme caution is exercised owing to the late failures in the leather trade, and the suspicion with which other departments of business are regarded. There seems to be a plentiful supply of money, but numerous demands have to be provided for in the course of a few weeks which will no doubt give sup port to the quotations, and perhaps occasion an up ward tendency. A few days hence preparations will be made for the settlements at the Stock Ex change, and the liquidation of the bills due on the 4th, which are likely to produce temporary activity in discount circles. There was no bullion operations of importance at the Bank of England yesterday. The £58,000 by the Saxonia has been purchased for exportation. No material alteration was exhibited in the Foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon. Rather less activity pervaded the Liverpool Cot ton Market yesterday, and prices were tolerably steady. The sales were about 8,000 bales. The creditors of Messrs. David Barclay and Sons, tanners, at a meeting yesterday, agreed to a com position of Bs. 6d. in the pound, payable by instal ments in three, six, and nine months, the last to be secured. The following communication relates to the Mexican Debt :—" The Committee of Mexican Bondholders have received letters, dated Mexico, the 13th and 28th ultimo, from Mr. Whitehead, who had arrived safely in the capital, after having been twice robbed on the road, and was well received by the authorities there. The remittances from Vera Cruz in bills on Mexico amounted in July to 41,588,21 dollars, making the deposit in the capital 830,872, 13 dols. Great efforts had been made to get up a conducta to Vera Cruz in the week before the 28th ult., and her Majesty's Minister would have allowed the British Consul to have accompanied it with his flag, provided no more than the legal amount of duty were levied, and the bondholders' money taken free, at the same time warning English houses to have nothing to do with it, as it did not in his opinion afford due security. As Govern ment, however, had at the last moment issued a notice to the effect that it was not a thing pro moted by them, but that they had merely assented to certain proposals made by one Sevilla with reference to it, this appeared tantamount to a withdrawal of authority, and will most likely have put an end to the whole scheme. At all events," Mr. Whitehead could not have entrusted the funds of the bondholders to it, contrary to Mr. Mathew's opinion that it was not safe. The communication of the capital with the interior was quite cut off. General Miramon was still at Lagos, with an insufficient force to undertake anything. He has Zulnaga with him, and he is not now recog nised by any of the Foreign Ministers." A meeting took place to•day of the shareholders in the Ottoman Bank, Mr. A. Layard in the chair, who proposed' a dividend for the half-year, ending the 30th June, at the rate of 8 per cent. out of the net profits, amounting to £29,998, and £1,343, the balance brought forward. Commercial operations having been suspended for a time at Beyrout, the Bank has incurred some losses, and to provide against them it was determined to carry £10,154, the balance remaining after the proposed distri bution, to the next account. The recommendations of the Board, including also a donation of £250 to the Syrian Relief Fund, having been agreed to, the meeting separated. No alteration has taken place to-day in the po sition of the market for Public Securities; a few transactions having taken place, in Consols at 921 93 for money and the 6th proximo, and at 931 for October. The speech delivered by M. - Per signy has not produced any movement here, but the Paris Bourse is flatter. The New Threes and the Reduced are heavy at 931 4 ; India Loan re mains at 1031 ; ditto 51 per Cent. Enfaced Paper at 1011; but the Debentures have receded to 961 ; and Exchequer Bills are steady at ls. to 45. prem. Business in the Foreign Stock Market has been inactive, and prices show less firmness. Turkish 6 per Cents. are 731 to 74 ; ditto New, 601 to 601; and the 4 per Cents. remain at 1001 ; Grenada are heavy at 151, ditto Deferred at I& 5, and Spanish Deferred at 40 ; ditto Certificates are steady at 51, Russian 41 per Cents. at 031 ; but the Scrip has receded to a pm. The Ocean Marine Insurance shares are 2 t pm.; the Thames and Mersey, i t pm.; and the Universal, 1 The transactions in the Railway Share Market have been rather restricted, and prices have shown a slight decline in several instances. Caledonians, Great Westerns, North-Easterns, Leeds, and South-Easterns have improved 6s. Great Northern A Stock, North-Western, Midland and North-Eastern, York, 10$. Edinburgh and Glasgow advanced £l. The Foreign and Colonial lines have been neglected. South Austrian and Lombardo-Vene tian are steady at 101' ; Great Western of Canada have declined to 121 ; East Indian to 991, ; and Great Indian Peninsula, to 96. Joint Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares have undergone no change of importance. London Joint Stock realised 291 30; Ottoman Bank 18; and Crystal Palace 301. BRITISH FUNDS—CLOSING PRICES.

She is appointed to convey the mails between Marseilles, Malta, and Alexandria. The South-Western Company's new steamer Southampton will commence running next month. She will convey the mails between Southampton and Jersey and Guernsey. ABERDEEN, August 25.—The Arctic, Captain Reid, from Davis' Straits, which arrived here yesterday, has 110 tuns of oil, and 6 to 7 tons bone, and reports the Lady Franklin and Sophia, with fair cargoes; the latter had lost her master, Cheyne, also one hand, by drowning ; also the Polar Star, Agostina, and Alert, of Peterhead ; Emma and Isabel, of Hall; all fairly fished. MIGRATION OF SWALLOWS.—As a proof of the unseasonably inclement weather which has recently pre vailed, it may be stated that during several days past mul titudes of swallows have been observed hovering over the river, about the Lower hope, evidently engaged in their annual migration, the present time being at least a month earlier than the usual aerial voyage of these birds. CRYSTAL PALACE.—The directors of the South- Eastern Railway, having granted a day's holiday to the men engaged at the Ashford Works, have further resolved to treat them to a visit to Sydenhain to-day, foi which pur pose special trains have been placed at the disposal of the men and their families. When on a visit to preach at Driffield a few days ago the Rev. C. 11. Spurgeon wore a white wide-awake hat and blue neck tie. Some one asked him how he could make up his mi n d to preach in canonicals, whilst on the Continent. " Oh," said he, " the people were so kind to me, that I wo u ld h ave preached in a red cloak and dunce cap if they had wished me."— York Herald. 29.

COURT OF ARCHES. THE CASE OF MR. BONWELL. This ;morning having been appointed for pronouncing judgment in this .case, the Court was very numerously attended. Mr. Bonwell osoupied a seat in Court in front of his legal adviser, Mr. Best, of the Oxford Circuit ; and Mr. John Hassrad, the Bishop of London's private secretary, was also present. Dr. Lushington, in pronouncing judgment, said the course heproposed to adopt was to examine the facts which hadbeen elicited during the prosecution, and having done so his duty would then be to deal with those facts according to the law applicable to them. There was no need of going at great length into the evidence brought forward to substantiate the charge against Mr. Bonwell, especially as it had not been met by any conflicting testimony on his part, and his duty would therefore be confined to ascertaining what that evidence contained, and then dealing with it as a whole, at the same time considering what amount of credit attached to each of the witnesses. Mr. Bonwell, the defendant, had been perpetual curate of St. Philip's, Stepney, since theyear 1845, and while hold ing that office in the church he was accused of illegally harbouring an unmarried woman, named Elisabeth Yorath, who was eventually delivered of a male child in the school house attached thereto, to the great scandal of the church and parish. From the evidence it appeared that Miss Yorath was the daughter of a deceased clergyman —one of eleven children, who, with her mother, in 1858, was residing in Wales. In that year the first witness, Miss Aimes, spoke to the commencement of the intimacy with Mr. Bonwell and Miss Yerath, at Margate, and her evidence clearly proved that he then and there con ducted himself as an unmarried man. If the evidence of that young lady required any corroboration that was un doubtedly at hand, for the evidence of Mrs. Robinson con firmed it most conclusively. He then referred b what took place at Newport, in Wales. The brother of AissYorath was there engaged in his profession as a surgeon, and it was surprising that Mr. Bonwell, a married man aid a clergy man, after a previous introduction to Miss Yorath at Mar gate, should go there and represent to Mr. Torah that lie was engaged to be married to hie eister, and that . lllr. ohancellor of the diocese, was to perform the cere mony. Mr. Yorath placed the most implicit reliance upon the representations of Mr. Bonwell, and his position in the church was then a sufficient guarantee as to the truth of his statement. Mr. Bonwell's conduct at the house of Mr. Yorath was entirely that of an unmar ried man; and if any confirmation to that gentleman's evi dence was required, the Rev. Mr. Williams, the chancellor of the diocese, says in his evidence that during the whole of the time he saw Mr. Bonwell in that part of the country he conducted himself as a single man about to contract marriage. The evidence on this point left no doubt on his mind that the conduct of Mr. Bonwell had been entirely that described in evidence. The next point of the case he would proceed to notice was that which occurred in Islington in June. There Miss (Yorath went to the house ef Mrs. Glennie and engaged apartments as Mrs. Harvey, and when she was asked for a reference she gave a card with Mr. Bonwell's address on it. The defendant had contended that that evidence ought to be struck out, as the card given had not been produced, but whether the reception of that evidence was right or wrong it did not much signify, as there was ample evidence without it. There was no doubt but that Miss Yorath was staying at llrs. Glennie's house under the assumed name of Mrs. Harvey, that Mr. Bonwell was in the habit of visiting her while she was pregnant, and that he was perfectly well aware of every thing passing was incontestibly proved. Then again Mrs. Gunn stated that the female was taken by the defen dant to his own house during the absence of his wife, where she remained all night, and from the appearance of the bed-room everything went to show that two persons had occupied it. In order to allay suspicion he told the witness that the lady was his cousin, but that was not the fact. Dr. Godfrey, in his evidence, distinctly stated that Miss Yorath was delivered of a child at the school-house of St. Philip's, Stepney; that Mr. Bonwell was in the constant habit of visiting her and giving orders, during the 10 or 12 days she remained ; and then followed the removal of Miss Yorath and her infant to the Sussex Hotel, the death, burial, and payment of the expenses by Mr. Bonwell. No sort of answer was givex to any of these facts; they were all admitted by him, as no witness was called to disprove them. If he had any explanation to such charges, surely his position as a clergyman ought to have induced him to give it. After the most careful con sideration, he had come to the conclusion that Mr. Bon well, being a married man, had been guilty of seduction ; that he promised the girl marriage, and the better to con ceal his visits he had harboured her in his own school house, where eventually she was delivered of a child, and his conduct throughout showed that he was the father of the child. No rational person could doubt that adultery had been committed, but time and place had not been clearly proved in evidence. That, however, was of no im portance, as the case of Trotter v. Trotter held that proof of time and place, in such cases, was not necessary. His opinion was that the whole of the charges made against Mr. Bonwell had been fully proved, and whether adultery had been committed in or out of the diocese did not avail, but that he had conducted himself as the father of the child, no sane person, as he had said before, could doubt, and he could not be such without he had committed adultery. He was satisfied that ho been guilty of seduction, adultery, fraud, and deception, and he fully considered the sentence he should presently pronounce. There were no extenuating circumstances, no palliation for such conduct on the part of Mr. Bonwell. He could not plead early youth, when all are so liable to temptation, as he was a man of ripe years, with a lady for his wife who was the head of a college and the mother of a family, and the victim was the daughter of a deceased clergyman, and one of the supports of an aged mother. The place, again, where the scenes had been enacted was no less than the school-house of the church—a place where the great principles of religion were inculcated, and where nothing but good ought to be known. But this place Mr. Bonwell had polluted—the ministry of the church he had disgraced—and for such conduct he could not inflict less punishment than deprivation of the living and condemnation in costs. Mr. Bonwell, when the learned doctor had concluded his judgment, rose and said, I hereby protest against a griev ance, and give notice of appeal. The Registrater said it was the order of the court that the appeal should be prosecuted in the first session of next term. The appeal will bo heard before the judicial committee of the Privy Council. SECONDARIES' COURT. (Before Mr. Potter and Jury.) SINGULAR 'BREACH OF PROMISE OF MARRTAGE. - DAMAGES, £lOO.-THOMAS V. DYER. This was a writ of inquiry to assess the damages, laid at £5OO, in a breach of promise of marriage case, defendant having suffered judgment to go by default. Mr. Lawrance, instructed by Messrs. Scarborough and Alderson, of Bloomsbury-square, for the plaintiff, said she (plaintiff) was a young person 25 years of age, formerly lady's maid in the service of a stockbroker who failed. She was of respectability and was compelled to come into court in con • sequence of the scandalous conduct of defendant. Defendant had been a soldier and clerk to the military camp at Col chester. He had been wounded in the Kaffir war, and had received a pension of 2s. per day. In addition to his emolu ments he had lately come into a legacy of £6OO left him by an uncle lately deceased. Plaintiff and defendant met at a party, and defendant was much smitten. He had written a great many affectionate letters to plaintiff, and in one ex pressed a hope that he might once more put "his arm round the waist of his dear Lizzie, and give her the first kiss of affection." After many letters to the same effect, defendant wrote a letter in which ho said he was recommended not "to marry at present," and supposed that "no doubt plaintiff would be disappointed," but it would be all right. Plaintiff was rather angry at that let ter, and expostulated with defendant, who replied, " that he had not the least thought of breaking off the engagement," and begged Lizzie to forgive him. Soon after this an in terview took place, and then defendant said he could never look upon plaintiff in any other light than that of a sister. He refused to make her any compensation, and declared he should defend himself to the last. The plaintiff's charac ter was irreproachable, and she was obliged to ask the jury for such damages as they might think reasonable. Mr. Green, librarian to the camp at Colchester, said the plaintiff was his niece. Defendant had lost a leg in the Kaffir war. This witness generally proved the love passages between plaintiff and defendant, and deposed to defendant's having told him he had lately come into a legacy of £6OO from his uncle. Other witnesses deposed to the same facts, and the learned Secondary having summed up, The jury assessed the damages at £lOO. No one appeared for defendant. NEW ACT ON THE LAW OF PROPERTY.--The late Act to Further Amend the Law of Property is certainly one of the class " which must lead to the more satisfactory ad ministration of justice." By this measure, brought forward by the Lord Chancellor, freehold, copyhold, and customary estates are placed on the same footing with leasehold estates, and all writs of execution are to be registered. No judgment is to be entered up after the passing of the act, nor any writ of execution to affect any bind, of whatever tenure, as to a bone fide purchaser or mortgagee, although execution or other process be issued and be duly registered, unless such execution be executed and put in force within three calendar months from the time when it was registered. There is a provision for the protection of heirs and executors against unregistered judgments. In the construction of the term "judgment," decrees, orders of Courts of Equity and Bankruptcy, and other orders having the operation of a judgment, are included. Under the 22d and 23d Victoria, cap. 35, a trustee, executor, or administrator may apply for the opinion, advice, or direction of the Court of Chancery, and it is now enacted that the petition or statement must be signed by counsel, and the judge by whom it is to be an swered may require the petitioner or applicant to attend him by counsel either in chambers or in court, when he deems it necessary to have the assistance of counsel. The Lord Chancellors of England and Ireland are empowered to make general orders as to. the investment of cash under the control of the Court. The order to take account of debts, &e., of a deceased person may be made immediately after probate is granted. The act is not to extend to Scotland, 1 and only a part to Ireland, POLICE INTELLIGENVE-(THIS DAY.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. CHARGE OF ATTEMPTED BURGLARY.—Timothy Neale and William Walker, two young men, were charged, before Mr. Beadon, with attempting to enter burglariously the house No. 12, is New Compton-street. George May, a constable of the F division, said that between three and four in the morning he heard a noise in New Compton-street, and going there he found the two prisoners near the house No. 12, the shutters of the shop being down. On seeing him approach, the prisoners turned round and ran off. On going close up to the house he found that two of the shop shutters had been taken down and a window broken. He pursued the prisoners to a coffeeshop in High-street, and went in and took them into custody. The prisoners said they had not been in New Compton street, and that they had been in the coffee-shop half an hour. The prisoners were the same persons. Tricker, 168 E, said he saw the prisoners enter the coffee shop, and last witness follow them in. They said they had been over the water till then. Mr. Robert Garrett, of 12 New Compton-street, said he was called up by the police, but found nothing removed, though the shutters were down and a window broken. The prisoners were put back and inquiries made, but nothing against their characters found out. Walker was found to have only lately left a smallpox hospital, and is an apprentice to a working jeweller in Clerkenwell. Mr. Beadon said he should remand them, but would take bail for their re-appearance on Friday next, but it was not provided. THIS DAY'S MARKETS. CORN EXCHANGE. Scarcely any English wheat was on sale here to-day. The demand for it was not to say brisk, yet there were no sellers except at a further advance in the quotations, com pared with Monday, of 2s per qr, owing to the continuance of unfavourable weather for harvest work. Over 13,000 qrs. of foreign wheat have come fresh to hand. Both red and white qualities sold at is to 2s per qr. more money. Floating cargoes of grain were 2s dearer. Barley sold freely, at quite Monday's improvement in value. Fine malt was rather dearer, and other kinds were steady in price. We had a good demand for oats, and fine samples were again rather dearer, Beans and peas commanded extreme rates, and the flour trade was healthy, on rather higher terms. ARRIVALS THIS WEEK. Wheat.

A letter in the Manchester Examiner says :—I happened in a recent letter to mention the curious fact that the son and heir of Lord Lovelace, late Lord Ockham, and now by Lady Byron's death, Baron Wentworth, and heir to the very large landed property bequeathed by the poet's widow, is now working at Woolwich Arsenal as a smith, at weekly wages. My friend of the Inde pendance Beige, in an almost textual translation of the whole letter which contained this paragraph, heightens the interest of this statement about the grandson of Lord Byron, by adding—" His pay is 30 shillings a week ; I have seen him at work in the shop with as much pluck and industry as any of his mates. Between ourselves, there is at the bottom—or rather at the top—of this eccentric proceeding a young and pretty girl of the lower orders, whom his lordship is unwilling to aban don, even to live in the highest and most envied sphere of society." I need hardly say that this is pure invention on the part of my indefatigable translator, the correspondent of the Independance. There is no " young and pretty girl of the lower orders" in the affair at all. The young nobleman in question ran away from school at an early age, was missing for several . Tears, in spite of large re wards offered for the discovery of him, bound him self apprentice aboard a coaster, underwent much hardship in this miserable position of cabin-boy aboard a north country collier ; was even at one time reduced to the workhouse at a little town in Yorkshire ; and, finally, when discovered by his relatives, preferred to win his bread by the work of his hands as a bolt maker at Woolwich arsenal, where he is still, or was very recently, working. He often, while in this employment, walked up to Lord Byron's seat, near Ham, and remained over Sunday, his day of leisure, as his guest, but always was careful to return to Woolwich in time to begin his work on Monday morning. I may add that though I have not seen him at work in the arsenal, a near relative of my own has seen him on the trudge from Woolwich to Ham—a fine, stout, handsome young man—in a blue pea jacket, long boots, and a wide-awake, with a short pipe stuck through the band. There may be eccentricity in this conduct of the young nobleman, but I do not believe there is anything either of excess or irre gularity in his conduct, or anything discreditable in his metives. THE EMPRESS AND THE YOUNG LADIES.—When the Emperor and Empress were at Macon, the young ladies of the town were permitted to offer a bouquet to her Ma jesty. They were headed by Mdlle. Lucotte, the mayor's daughter, who addressed a neatly-turned compliment to the Empress. Her Majesty drawing the young lady to her, graciously expressed her thanks, and presented her with a gold watch, at the same time embracing her with warmth, which moved all the spectators, and drew forth criea of " Vivo I'Empereur !" " Vive Imperat rice I" " Vive le Prince Imperial !" The young ladies then ranged them selves on each side of the throne, and a deputation of girls from Chardonnay, Uchizy, Plottes, and Les Bressanes, wearing the picturesque costume of the Macconnais, wore admitted to the Empress, and one of them, Mdlle. Coma trait, of Uchizy, delivered a suitable addres, and presented her Majesty with a bouquet. The Empress expressed her thanks, gave the speaker a gold watch, and complimented all the deputation on their good looks:and pretty dresses. The girls then withdrew, crying " Vive l'lmperatice I" " Vive le Prince Imperial A RIFLE VOLUNTEER SUMMONED FOR NON PAYMENT OF SUBSCRIPTION.—At the City Police-court, yesterday, James Kelly, a private in the 10th Company cf the 2d Manchester Rifle Regiment, was summoned under the 51st sec. of the General Volunteer Act, for neglecting snd refusing to pay on demand a certain sum of money subscribed or required by the rules or regulations of the corps. Lieutenant Furniss produced the written contract of the defendant to pay 21s. as a subscription to the regi mental fund, and Os. to the company's fund, and explained that the defendant had paid 63. towards this amount, leaving a balance of 245. which was now demanded. The defendant admitted his liability, but said that in conse quence of having been out of work for a time it was not in his power to pay the money. Captain Percival, who com manded the company, had sent for his (defendant) uniform and accoutrements, and as he had given them up, he did not think that he should have been pressed for payment. Mr. Ellison said there was no reason why the law should not be put into operation The defendant had become liable to a double payment (485.), an.l it must be levied upon him. Eventually, on the defendant pleading for a little time, Mr. Ellison said the Bench had considered very seriously what the defendant had said, and they would go so far as not to allow the warrant fer distress to issue for 14 days. In the meantime Captain Percival would have an opportunity of deciding whether this was a fit case for miti gation of penalty, and if he thought it was, the Bench would mitigate it iu some degree,—Atancheskr Guardian. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. BETTING AT MANCHESTER, TUESDAY. Many of our su')scribers being absent at Lichfield and Stockton, the lusiness done on the St. Leger was but of a very meagre character; 5 to 2 was offered on the field, and 9to 2 was taken about Sabreur. There was a disposition to back both The Wizard and Sweetsauce. We think 7to 1 would have been taken against the former, and 10 to 1 was asked for about the latter.
