MONEY MARKET AND COMMERCIAL • INTELLIGENCE CITY, Two O'CLOCK The drain of gold to Egypt in connection with the expenditure at the opening of the Suez Canal continues, and a further amount of 64,000 sove reigns was withdrawn to-day. The Kate Waters left Auckland, New Zealand, on the 28th of August, with £39, 272. The Holsatia, from New York, has brought £18,832. The advices from Frankfort state that the Bourse has been dull during the last few weeks, in sym pathy with the continued pressure at Vienna, which still continues, notwithstanding the large amount of Stock sent thence for sale at Frankfort. Lombard shares alone are more firm, as their receipts are con- tinually increasing on a large scale. The quantity held has lately been in some degree diminished by orders from London. The traffic of the Buenos Ayres Great Southern Railway exhibits an increase of £23,075. The subscription list of the new Portuguese loan, introduced by Messrs. Stern Brothers, closed yes terday afternoon. The applications were consider ably over the amount required, and of a very good Character. The business doing in the scrip was, however, not extensive, and the price at the close .vas Ito prem. The trustees of the late firm of W. T. Piper and Co., builders, Bishopsgate-street, have de clared a first dividend of 4s. in the pound, which will be payable on the Bth, 9th, and 16th instant. The trustees arranging the affairs of Mr. Thos. Gaskell, late underwriter at Llyod's, have yes terday declared a dividend of 6d. in the pound. The usual interim dividend at the rate of 10 per cent. per annum on the paid-up capital of the Otago and Southland Investment Company for the half-year ending 31st July last will be payable on and after the loth inst.

One of them is by the pri soner himself, and the greater part of it is devoted to the refutation of charges which comparatively few persons have seen. Ono point, however, relates to the capital charge, and probably foreshadows Hinson's defence. After describing his waiting for the train to arrive at Wood-green Station, the prisoner says :—" I saw the said Maria Death get out of the train with William Douglas Boyd. They-were laughing and chatting together. I met her, and we walked home together . ; but - from the time when we passed ,through the, gateway of the garden of Della Cottage, through which it was necessary to go in order to reach our house, until the time when Police-con stable Neill, who has known me several years, touched me on the shoulder and said, "Fred, what's all this about ?" I solemnly affirm that I was utterly unconscious, and have no recollection whatever of what took place." Mr. Painter, of Hendon, Hinson's employer, deposes that it was a com mon thing for customers to ask if Frederick Hinson was at liberty, and to request that he might be sent to do their work, as ho was a great favourite with many of them, on account of his quiet and regular habits and good manners, All the affidavits (except the prisoner's own) bear witness to his humane treatment of Maria .

HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN, Accompanied by the Captain's escort of the 2d Life Guards. John Brown, the Queen's favourite attendant, occupied a seat at the hack of the Royal carriage, dressed in full Highland costume. Her Majesty was dressed in black, the only relief to the sombre costume being the small ermine collarette. The carriages containing her Ma jesty's suite having drawn off in advance, that containing the Queen stopped in the centre of the pavilion, and the Lord Mayor, the committee, the architect, &c., &c., advanced, and the former having tendered to her Majesty the City sword, which, of course, her Majesty returned to the cus tody of the Lord Mayor, an address suitable to the occasion was presented to her Majesty by the Lord Mayor on behalf of the Corporation of Loudon. Her Majesty thanked the Lord Mayor for the ad chess, and then formally declared the new bridge open to the public, an announcement that was re ceived with loud cheering and flourishes of trumpets, the bands playing "God Save the Queen," amidst which the Royal cortege proceeded at a slow pace to cross the bridge. The caemony within the pavilion did not occupy much over 10 minutes, and immediately after the company left their seats and proceeded to promenade the bridge. Ilhe Lord Mayor, on the Royal carriage leaving the pavilion, attended her Majesty up Farringdon•road, which, like all other places, was crowded by thousands of people, who cheered most vociferously. On reach ing the Viaduct Bridge the procession proceeded up Charterhouse-street, and finally arrived on the Holborn Viaduct at its eastern end. At the pavilion here erected, the company was as numerous and enthusiastic as at that of Black friars Bridge, and when the enthusiasm of the reception of her Majesty had some what subsided, the Lord Mayor presented the members of the Corporation and others who had been instrumental in carrying out the improve ment. The Queen then drove along the Viaduct, which, like the new bridge, was filled the entire length by an enthusiastic company, and the whole progress of the Queen was marked by the warmest demonstrations of loyalty and attachment. .11tr Majesty on reaching the end of the Viaduct took leave of the Lord Mayor, and the royal cortege proceeded along Holborn to route to Windsor. - The line of procession was kept by the Life Guards, and the royal carriage was attended by a squadron of the same ; the guard at the pavilions being furnished by the Household Brigade. There was a large attendance of Volunteers at either end of the viaduct and at the four angles of the bridge, and certainly the whole of the interesting proceed ings could not have gone off better. The police— both Metropolitan and City —acted with the greatest forbearance, and when called upon to be ,a little decisive it was done in the best temper, and happily we heard of nothing occurring that could tend to mar the success and pleasure of the day. Fortunately, the arrangements of the committee were such that our reporters were enabled to obtain admission to the pavilions without the six or eight inches of brilliantly printed pasteboard which the committee kept so exclusively for themselves and friends.

The arrangements for the opening of the new bridge, at Blackfriars, and the Holborn Viaduct, as far as the reception of her Majesty was concerned, ail resulted in perfect success. The weather, which throughout the previous day had been most un favourable, cleared up during the night, and the morning of the 6th of November was about one of the brightest it was possible to desire. The public turned out in enormous numbers to welcome her Majesty, and throughout the entire line of the pro cession the utmost enthusiasm was exhibited. The display of flags, of all colours and all nations, was something extraordinary; there was scarcely a house that did not sport its favour, in addition to the windows being filled with sightseers. On passing along the line, previous to the arrival of the Queen and the Royal suite, the first object of importance was the pavilion at the foot of the new bridge on the Surrey side ; here the Lord Mayor, the Sheriffs, Aldermen, and the rest of the civic dignitaries, assembled to meet her Majesty. Thii erection has been so thoroughly described that all that need be said about it at the present time is that, filled with the great civic authorities, their wives and daughters, and a few very special per sonages to obviate its becoming designated thoroughly exclusive, it looked remarkably well, and presented a very attractive commencement to the proceedings. The visitors began to assemble shortly after nine, and at half-past eleven all the seats were occupied, add from that hour until thearrival of her Majesty ; the interval was filled up by the vari ous military bands playing different airs at the same time ; the Aldermen, Common Council men, and military officers rushing backward and forward, in the most unaccountable manner, apparently on messages of the most mysterious im portance. Precisely at 12 o'clock the Royal cortege, con sisting of four open carriages in addition to that containing her Majesty arrived at the en trance of the pavilion, where it was received with flourishes of trumpets within, and the cheering of the thousands assembled without the enclosure.

The accounts already published of the outrage committed at Drumaloor on Mond a y even i ng were i n su b s t ance correct. A party of men, accompanying two Roman Catholic priests of Belturbet on their way home from the Cavan tenant-right meeting, were suddenly fired at by persons lying in wait for them, and one man was killed. Saunders's News Letter, a Protestant journal, "regrets to say that the perpetrators of this atrocious deed are Pro testants, and not Fenians, as was suggested." A coroner's inquest has been held at Belturbet on the body of the murdered man, Edward Morton. Six men—John White, Alexander White, Robert Henry Hewitt, John Edward Rea, Joseph Hewitt, and George North—were present in custody.—The first witnsss examined was Thomas Hinch. He said that he was coming home from Cavan on Monday evening, about half-past five o'clock, on a' car with five other persons who had been present with him at the tenant - right meeting in Cavan. When they got as far as Drumaloor they met a party of men on • the road, amongst whom he could identify Alexander White. White presented a gun down the road near where witness was, but did not fire it. Wit ness saw Robert Henry Hewitt with a gun in his hand, A man named George North was there, and seemed to be very actively engaged in trying to keep the parties quiet.—Francis M'Avinea deposed to having seen John Edward Rea fire a shot at Morton, who fell after it. It was between light and dark when the shot was fired. Before he saw Rea, fire a shot, ho hoard four other shots. Witness was about two yards behind Morton when ho was shot. Could not say whether Morton was riding or walking. Rea was standing at the end of Hewitt's house on an eminence when ho fired the shot.—John M`Call stated that when ho was on his way home to his own house, on the evening in question, he called at the resi dence of an uncle of the prisoner Rea. That was after the firing on the road. The prisoner Rea came into the house with a gun in his hand.—John King deposed that he saw John Edward Rca firing a shot from the end of Hewitt's house. It was not dark at the time. Could not say whether it was a gun or pistol ho fired. He was standing near witness when he fired the shot. Saw nothing happen after the shot was fired; but when he came to the road some short time after, he saw the man lying on the road.— Hugh Hinch swore that he saw the party on their return from Cavan. Some of them were carrying a flag. Heard -some persons shouting to put it down, and heard another man shouting, "To hell with the Pope." Immediately after that shots were fired.—John Phillips deposed that he was the driver of the car on which the Rev. Mr. Dunno and tho other clergyman were seated. When the shots were fired at Drumaloor the priests got off the car. Morton asked for a seat, and as the deceased was getting up he was. shot in the leg. The shot was fired by the prisoner, named White.—[lden tified prisoner.)—Dr. Thompson deposed that Morton died from the effects of a gunshot wound in the left thigh.— The Jury found a verdict to the effect that Morton came by his death from a gunshot wound inflicted by John White, at Drumaloor, on the evening of the Ist November; and that John White was aided and assisted by Alexander White, Robert Henry Hewitt, John Edward Rea, Joseph Hewitt, and George North. The Whites are tinsmiths by +rade ; the other prisoners are described by a local correspondent as "rather comfortable farmers.' The funeral of 'Morton, on Wednesday, passed off without any disturbance—the only party exhi bition being a procession of about fifty men, all armed with formftlable-looking sticks, headed by a person wearing a green scarf. The Dublin Express says the character of the outrage assumes a different character when viewed in connection with antecedent facts furnished by a correspondent " upon whose statements the utmost reliance can be placed." According to this correspondent, a procession carrying green flags and other party emblems, set out in the morning from Belturbef and district for Cavan, and at Drumaloor, "a strong Orange colony," some of the throng gave vent to their feelings in cries of "To hell with King 'William !" Th e writer adds :—" The priests endeavLured to pr even t these party expressions as well as they could. Surmises of an attack in the evening, and a wreck of houses by the party on their return, began to spread, and heightened the excitement with which the event of the morning had been viewed. Tho Protestant clergy of the parishes in which the townlands are situated visited the locality in the course of the day, and endea voured to allay the ill-will which had been stirred up. counselling the people to keep in their houses and take no notice whatever of th e par ty expression s w hi c h th e opposite party might use ; and to prevent, as it was sup posed, all danger of collision between the parties, two informations were sworn before Mr. T. F. Kempe, J.P., at between four and five o'clock in the evening, with a view of having the troop of Hussars now stationed in Bel turbet Barracks sent out to the place. Most of the police had been drafted to Cavan in the morning. Unhappily before the troops could reach the place, that which had been dreaded took place." THE VACANT LORD JUSTICESHIP.—We under stand that no Lord Justice will at present be appointed to succeed the late Sir C. J. Selwyn , and that the scheme of elevating the Master of the Rolls to that position, or of consolidating the offices of Lord Justice and Master of the Rolls, has not been entertained. Lord Justice Giffard will sit alone, pursuant to the power conferred by the recent statute, while in cases of high importance it will of course be open to the Lord Chancellor and Lord Justice Giffard to sit together.—Law Journal. An important atop has been taken by the iron masters of South Staffordshire. A few days ago it was agreed to advance puddlers' wages 6d per ton, but great dis content was manifested in the other departments of milling, shingling, Ice., in which no advance was granted. A strike seemed as imminent as over. Business is no doubt much improved. A London firm having advanced iron 20s. a ton, and a similar rise having boon made by an eminent firm at Dudley, the association of South Staffordshire, on Thursday, agreed unanimously to advance iron 20s. a ton, to raise puddlers' wages another 6d.-- making an advance of Is. altogether— and to raise the millmen 10 per cent. THE IMPERIAL TRAIN OF FRANCE.—The most right-royal production in the world in the way of travelling carriages is the imperial train of France. It is a veritable train, not merely one carriage in a train. First, after the engine and tender, comes a luggage-carriage —not an uninhabitable van, but a structure which, besides ordinary luggage, contains pantry arrangements for refreshments, and accommodation for some of the company's and imperial servants. Next is a carriage adapted as a dining-room— or at least as a refreshment - room —with a centre table, arm-chairs, and hinged seats ; and when, at night, the seats are drawn away from the wall, they fall back so as to form bedsteads for the attendants. Third in the list stands an open or platform carriage which may be opened or closed at the sides at pleasure, and used either as an open-air look-out or as a refreshment room. Then comes the grand carriage, the imperial saloon, with a retiring-room attached, and doors at the sides and ends. All that luxury can do is here done in the provi sion of couches, arm-chairs, febling.chairs, moveable chairs, small tables and stands, curtains, wire-gauze blinds, to exclude dust when the windows are open, a timepiece, pendent lamps, and mirrors. The fifth is a sleeping car riage, divided off into seven distinct compartments; these comprise a sleeping chamber or bedroom, two dressing rooms, two rooms for the Empress's ladies, one for the Emperor's valet, and a retiring room. The sleeping chamber contains two beds, on opposite sides of a com. partment nine feet wide. Next to the sanctum of the imperial papa and manuna is a carriage for the Prince Imperial, with numerous snuggeries for sleeping, dressing and attendants. Lastly, there is a luggage-carriage, the counterpart of the one at the head of the train. All the carriages have doors at the end, and platforms which make a convenient gangway from carriage to carriage; and there are electric bell from the imperial saloon to all the other carriages aml to the engine-driver and guards,—aihea.9 New; PARIS CORRESPONDENCE. The necessity for a speedy dissolution of the Corps Legislatif is being discussed in several journals. The Fresse, the Temps, the Avenir National, and the L'Electrur Libre, are unanimous on the point, and they are supported, strange to say, by the France itself, the organ of M. Rouher. This would seem to indicate the truth of the reports of the sudden conversion to Liberalism of the ex Minister and still reigning favourite. The Siecle esteems the dissolution so imperative that it considers the maintenance of the Chambers in statu quo as a reason for doubting the sincerity of the Government. The Corps Legislatif is, it remarks, to-day the product of a system condemned by the Government itself, and it is useless to think of reforming it. There has been some talk about the letters which the Princess Mathilde sent to M. Sainte Beuve, and which she is very anxious should be returned to her. She will probably receive them when the seals are broken. Prince Napoleon has also sent some letters, but he has given his permission that they may be published, provided the testamentary executors give him notice of the same. The Nord gives some details concerning the state of the Empress Charlotte, who is still staying in the Chilteau de Tervueren. She is closely watched because she has sometimes tried to escape, but the confinement irritates her. She spends a great part of her time in sending telegrams to different places to complain of her captivity. Her condition is indeed a deplorable one, and she is haunted by the idea that people want to poison her. It was reported that M. Henri Rochefort had ar rived in Paris. but his friends are not aware of his inten tions, and his movements seem quite uncertain. The Gauloie of this morning say the Emperor, on hearing of the arrest of M. Rochefort, expressed himself in the following manner : " M. Rochefort is to be allowe I full freedom to urge his candi lature. Although an irreconeili tble candidate opposed to myself, I wish that he should enjoy the immunity of a Representative." POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-7iis Day. 31ARLDOILOUGH STREET. CAUTION TO HORSEKEEPERS.—Thomas Pollard, a car man in the employ of the Midland Railway Company, was charged before Knox, by the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, with cruelty to a horse, by working it in an unfit state. Dobie, officer of the society, saw the defendant driving a pair of horses attached to a van heavily laden with crates, and noticing that ono of the horses was staggering on its toes ho examined it, and found the near hind leg in a state of disease—matter dropping from it. On speaking to the defendant he said he could not help it, and that if ho did not take the horse out some one else would. Mr. Cherry said the horse was suffering from a disease culled "grease," and in great pain. Mr. Ralph, agent to the Midland Railway Company, said he was not aware the horse was sent out. It was not the wish of the company that horses should be sent out in an unfit state, and he would take care nothing of the kind occurred again. Mr. Knox said he did not think he had ever had a case against the Midland Railway Company before. Mr. Cherry E aid he only Lew of one case against them —at Bow-street. Mr. Knox said he must inflict a fine by way of caution. It would be 10s. or 14 days, and half a guinea costs to the veterinary surgeon. THAIIES. Tim DUTCH BUTTER FACTORY.—Frederick Lavender and Georgo Lavender, brothers, and Richd. Brown, young men described as labourers, wore brought before Mr. Paget charged with breaking into the refined tallow factory of John and Wm. Goldbloed and Co., Glaucus- street, Bow common, and stealing 61 stones of suet, valued at £lO. Brown was in custody last Monday and discharged. He was again arrested yesterday with the Lavenders by How lett and Furze, detective officers, who called several wit nesses to prove that the factory was broken into on Sa turday afternoon, the 30th ult., and 64 stones of suet taken away, and placed on a barrow by the prisoners, and an old man, not in custody. It was also proved that the pri soners borrowed a barrow of Mrs. Elizabeth Oliver, of Glaucus-street, and two sacks, in which the suet was de posited on the barrow of John Minor, general carman, of No. 8, Fern-street, in the same locality. Mr. George Roberts, carman and storekeeper to the prosecutors locked up the factory on Saturday afternoon at six o'clock, and on the same night between eight and nine o'clock he discovered a hole in the roof, and 64 stones of suet gone. The suet was in sacks on a barrow in Weston-street. The suet was worth 3s per cwt. wholesale. The fat was not melted down for Dutch butter but for refined tallow. It would not mix with butter without instant discovery by the appearance, smell, and taste. A witness—The Dutch butter factory is at Hackney- Wick, not at Mes, , rs. Goldbloed's establishment. Mr. Paget said it was curious that the factory on Bow common had the reputation of being a Dutch butter manu factory. Mr. Charles Young, solicitor, said a good deal of beef and mutton suet was mixed with " the real Dorset" and the "dairy-fed Cambridge," and the pieces of fat would be easily distinguished in this but ter. English and Dutch farmers both sold the spurious compound, aLd no doubt there was plenty of butter sold which the cow never pro duced. Mr. Paget should like to see the stolen suet. Mr. Roberts said it was a perishable article, and had been melted down and made into refined tallow. Mr. Paget—Not Dutch butter ? Mr. Roberts—No, sir. A. piece of the suet which had been salted for preser vation was produced, and Howlett and Furze said Messrs. Goldbloed's premises were always called the Dutch butter factory. The prisoners Frederick Lavender and Brown were well-known to them, and had been convicted of felony. The prisoners were remanded for a week, bail being ac cepted for George Lavender. MARKETS.—This Day. LIVERPOOL COTTON. Nov. 6.—Sales probably 10,000 bales. The market steady. Prince Poniatowski has gone to Milan to direct his opera, " Pierre de Medicis," at La Scala. A monu ment to the memory of Cherubini has been inaugurated at the church of Santa Croce, Florence. At the new Cairo opera-house there is to be a grand "box" for the ladies of the "establishment" of the Khedive.-31usica Standard. LITERARY. —William Cullen Bryant is the latest story writer announced for the New York Ledger.—Mark Twain is going to lecture this winter on " Curiosities of California." JOURNALIS3I.—A new comic paper, Punch and Judy, has taken the field, been collared by Punch, and car ried before "the beak." Punch alleges that the name is an infringement of his rights, but the judge did not see it, so all Punch did for his little brother was to give him a good advertisement. Judy has adopted an artful style of advertisement. The back page, sweetly illus trated, deludes the public into the belief that there is something there for them to read and be amused at, and they find gymnastics, machine-made jewellery, and other trade announcements enticingly displayed. A comic sheet, The Chip Basket, edited by a mere boy, the son of Mr. Silver, has been sent to us from New York, and it is creditable to so youthful an editor. Echoes has changed into The Period, which for some time has been announced, but we have not yet seen a copy. The Times has a comic habit of announcing births as deaths; first plunging families into mourning, and then telling the afflicted to wipe away their tears, for they only moult to say that a child had been added instead of the mamma subtracted. The Times must delight in producing revul sion of feeling, for the joy at the unexpected death of the heir-at-law must turn to the point of suicide on learning that a son and heir had been born. Although occasion ally very heavy reading, at times the Times is the most comic of all papers, though perhaps the home friends of Mr. Currie, of the Bengal Civil Service, whose wife the Times announced as having died at Nynee Tal, when it meant a daughter had been born, may not see it in this light.--Mr. Joseph L. Shipley, formerly assistant editor of the Republican (Sp ingfield), but for some years ono of the ekitorial writers of the Boston Journal, has accepted the editorial charge of the Scranton Republican, the leading daily paper in the flourishing city of Scranton, Penn sylvania, and will assume the duties of the position almost immediately.—The Kennebec Journal of Augusta has been enlarged, and made the largest paper in the State of Maine.—Rev. Sidney Dean has retired from the Provi dence Press Company, of which he has been agent and treasurer, and from the piper, of which he has been editor. FRIDAY. The electoral candidates are still the heroes of the hour, and electoral meetings are the order of the day. The delegates who went to London for the express purpose of learning M. Ledru Rollin's determinaticn about the oath, have returned bringing with them the answer which might have been expected. M. Ledru Rollin refutes uncon ditionally to take the oath, but allows the electors to do what theylike in other respects. The Journal de Paris of last evening states that ho declined altogether the offers made to him. The general feeling is strongly opposed to the election of lea cxylidats ins.:2-mentes, that is to say, cf members who will refuse to take the 'oath ; and will bo consequently disqualified for sitting in the Chamber. The powers that be are not at all in the habit of taking hints or being influenced by silent protests, and the people think with reason that they are far more likely to do the State good service by returning members who will take a practical part in the debates and strengthen the bands of the Opposition. Even M. Louis Thane, greatly as he desire; the abolition of the oath, thinks that it would be better to procure it by those means which in England aro understood by "popular agitation," than to run the risk of provoking a collision in the streets. It is no secret that the Ministers are endeavouring to secure a majority for the opening of the Chambers, and are professing that they have fulfilled the programme of the 116. THI U) EDITION.

The Lord Mayor's procession, on the 9th inst., will be quite up to the average, both as regards the state carriages, liveries, and general adornments and appoint ments, The liveries in question are very richly embroi dered in gold, the design being oak leaf and acorn. The colour of the cloth is ultra marine blue, with crimson facings, the epaulettes being of massive gold bullion. The vests and breeches are white cassimere, richly laced and braided in gold. The state hats are elegant in design, black beaver, trimmed with real ostrich feathers, colour white. The design and manufacture of all the liveries, including the coachman and postilions' wigs, have been in trusted to T. S. Freeman and Sons, of 48, Fenchurch street, who have also to provide his Lordship's state hat, and the whole will be on view on Monday next between ten and four, on presentation of visiting card.

It appears that of the 258 persons on board only 38 are known to be saved. The vessel caught fire on the night of Wednesday, the 27th ult. Her cargo, which consisted chiefly of hay, was piled on deck. The fire spread rapidly, and she was run on a shoal, but the dep,e of water prevented the people reaching land. The 111 . 41 it was cola, the wind high, auu a swift current was running. Few of the sufferers were burnt, nearly all of them being drowned. Boats from the shore rescued the survivors. Some of those who aro missing may have floated down the river, but their fate is unknown.
