CITY, Two o'CLocx. The directors of the Bank of England, after a brief discussion, have again adjourned without announcing any chs: ge in their discount regula tions. They refuse to listen to the dictation of those who, without .a knowledge of what is passing within the establialument, clamour for a particular line of policy, bemuse it may have been adopted on former occasion s, under somewhat similar cir cumstances. The i noney market is not affected by the determination of the Court to carry out its own views upon this subject, and the commercial public, if they chose, can negotiate their bills in :the open market, in.stead of the " discount-office" of the Bank. The stock of other securities is maintained at a sat isfactory point, and there can be no doubt that the authorities would modify their regulations if they were convinced of the advisa bility of an alteration. The next two or three weekly balance-sb eets will probably prove the cor rectness of their views, and the soundness of the policy they have •thought proper to adopt. In the Liverpoo 1 Cotton Market, yesterday, there was no animation , and 6,000 bales were sold, at lower values. The Railway Share Market closed quietly, and pric es tended downwards. No perceptiblc increase is apparent in the demand for money, notwithstanding the settlements at the Stock Exchange , and the approach of the 4th of the month. The commercial engagements that will then arrive a at maturity are expected to re present a comps tratively small amount, and may be provided for wii lout causing the slightest influence Upon the discount market. The meeting of the East India Railway Com pany took plate to-day. Mr. R. W. Crawford, M.P., the chair man, congratulated the proprietors en the opening g of the line from Allahabad to Cawnpore, 126 miles in length, which he had no doubt would bring a large addittional net profit to the company. He was happy to say that the works were proceeding satisfactorily on all the sections where they could be safely prosecuted, any 1 on the whole he considered the prospects of • the company highly encouraging. The half-yearl: y accounts showed the total receipts of the lines in operation to have been £80,899 ls. 2d., and the el cpenditure £35,729 7s. 11d., leaving a balance of £45,169 13s. 3d. The report was adopted. We have b, 3en requested to state that William Lemon Olive: r, who was charged at the Guildhall, Yesterday, v ,ith having misappropriated £5,000 entrusted to him for investment, is not a member of the Stock Exchange. The trans actions in public securities to-day have again been i •estricted, in consequence of the anxiety of the ope rators to learn the decision of the Bank Court before extending their engagements. The uncerta duty felt with regard to the regula tion of the t erms of discount has interfered with this &script don of business for several weeks, and it has, no ch nbt, prevented the upward movement In values, wi xich might have been expected from the increased a l oun d ance o f money . Th e s ettlement in Foreign St ocks and Railway Shares is being pro ceeded wit} t, and the necessary formalities tempora rily occupy the principal attention of the members. Very little t 'resh speculative business is recorded, but one or two large purchases of Consols are stated to have been made for the December account. Money is very p lentiful in the " House," and loans are freely negotiated on Government at 1-} per cent. When. it became known that the mini mum had not been reduced, the funds ap peared a shade flatter, but the movement is unimportant ; with quotations at their pre sent high range frequent variation must be anticipated. Consols are about 981 I for money' and 983 sellers for the account. Bank Stock is marked 224 ; the Reduced and New 3 per Cents. have been dealt in. at 971 and 9714.

Joint Johnson, 35, and James Read, were indicted for burglariously entering the dwelling-house of James Jewell. The prisoners pleaded guilty. It appeared that the prisoners, having succeeded in effect ing an entry into the house, packed up a considerable quan tity of goods ready for removal, but previous to taking their departure they sat down in the kitchen, and having found some wine, began regaling themselves, when they were 12} discovered. Read was sentenced to one, and Johnson to two, years' imptisonment, with hard labour. CUTTING AND WOUNDING. A young man, named Sullivan, who wore the uniform of the Royal Artillery, was indicted for cutting and wounding Nicholas Barnes, with intent, &c. The prisoner pleaded not guilty. Mr. Frank Talfourd conducted the prosecution. Nicholas Barnes said—l was in Leather-lane on Saturday night, the 17th of October, about half-past 12, when I saw a crowd of persons assembled. I went up to see what was the matter, and there saw two men knocking a woman about. I interfered to protect her, when I received a blow that felled me to the ground. On getting up again'l called them cowards for ill-using the woman, when one of them struck me again and blood flowed from my cheek. I was taken to the hospital, where a blade of a knife was taken therefrom. I don't know the person who struck me. Sarah Wood—l live at Baldwin's-gardens. I recollect Sunday, the 17th. I heard a woman scream. I saw a man had been fighting, and the only persons near were the policeman, the prisoner, and a boy. I saw the prosecutor reeling. He staggered towards the prisoner, when I saw him raise his hand and strike him in the face with a knife. I saw the knife in his hand, and the blood from the man's face went on my dress. I know the prisoner is the man by the peculiarity of his dress. I did not go before the ma gistrate on the first examination, because I disliked to in terfere in such matters. lam certain the prisoner is the man who struck the blow. When he had done so he said, " I've done for the ---;" and ran away. Mr. Justice Erle—Have you any question to ask the witness ? Prisoner (to witness)—How do you know I'm the man ? Witness—l know you by your dress. Mr. Justice Erle—Have you any more questions to put ? Prisoner—No, my lord. I've only to say that the woman's purging herself. (Laughter.) Elizabeth Ready—l live in Baldwin's-gardens. On Sun day morning I saw there had been a fight, and I saw the prisoner run away after he had struck the prosecutor with a knife. lam certain the prisoner is the man that ran past me. I know him by his dress. The red strip in the pri soner's trousers particularly attracted my attention. William Dayman, police-constable, said—l was on duty in Baldwin's-gardens at the time the man was stabbed. From what I was told about a man having been stabbed, I went into Holborn and found the prisoner in company with his brother. I told them I wanted them for stabbing a man, and they said " It's all right, governor, we are not the men." I said, " You must come to the station, and if you are not the men you will be let go." They refused to accompany me to the station, and I was compelled to ob tain assistance before I could convey them there. I re ceived the blade of the knife I produced from my sergeant. He told me it was taken from the man's cheek. The prisoner, in his defence, said he was not the man who struck the blow. His brother was the person who stabbed the prosecutor, and he was ready to own it. The jury found the prisoner guilty of felony. Mr. Justice Erle said he did not think he should be doing his duty if he did not pass upon the prisoner a severe sen tence, as he had been convicted on the clearest evidence of having maliciously stabbed a man who was engaged in a praiseworthy object—viz., rescuing a woman from violence. The sentence of the Court was, that he be kept in penal servitude for the term of four years. THIRD COURT. (Before the Common Sergeant.) STEALING A COPPER COFFIN. James List and William Savill were indicted fcr feloni ously breaking and entering the church of St. John's, Stratford, and stealing therefrom a copper coffin and a leaden coffin, the property of Jabez Leff. The prisoner List pleaded guilty, and Savill not guilty. Mr. Robinson, who appeared to , prosecute the prisoners, stated the case. It appeared that the prisoners were grave diggers to the parish. In 1850 a gentleman named Taylor was buried in a copper coffin, which, on an examination of the vaults a short time ago, was discovered to have been stolen. He proposed to call up the prisoner List to give an account of the transaction. Nuffield Salaam . OLDS. Last half A.B.M. Two ran. GLASGOW STAKES. Three ran. MATCHES. Delusion beat Soothsayer.

He then gave a description of the manner in which Savill and himself entered the vault and broke open the coffins, and other details of a most revolting description. Mr. Cradock said—l am sexton at Stratford church. Savill was a gravedigger, and List assisted him. When once the wooden door was open access was obtained to all the vaults. The outer door of the vault was never left open all night. I was present on the 23d of September, when the vault was examined. I discovered the vault had been broken open the day before. In consequence of the talk in the neighbourhood I went down into the vault and found the wall had been broken down, some coffins had been broken open, and a copper coffin had been stolen. Cross-examined by Mr. Atkinson—l was absent from one of the examinations of the prisoners before the magis trate. I went with Biggs, the clerk of the church, to see List, one of the prisoners. We had no particular object in going. We had known him a long time. We walked three miles to see the prisoner. We had no other object than to see how he was. I did not say to him, "If you don't give evidence we shall lose our situations." I will be on my oath that neither I nor Biggs ever asked the prisoner to confess. We considered the whole business was very unpleasant, and we said so. We were with List about a quarter of an hour. When Biggs went in, he said, "Jamie, how are you ? this is a bad job both for me and Mr. Cradock. I never should have done it but for Savill, and I wished I had never seen him." He said he was working in the graveyard in June, when Savill came up and said, " What do you think of having Taylor's coffin ?" He said at first, " I'll have nothing to do with it," but, unfortunately, he said he assented, and went and got some tools, and Taylor's coffin was opened. The churchwardens attached blame to myself. By Mr. Metcalfe—l never held out any inducement for the prisoner to confess to a crime he had not committed. William Wallis said—l am a bricklayer, residing at Stratford. I recollect the funeral of Dr. Samuel Taylor in 1850. I was employed to brick up the vault. When I bricked up the vault there were two coffins there. James Bogden—l am a bricklayer. I was also employed in the vault izt 1850. I saw the coffins there then quite safe. William Strange—/ live at Stratford. I know the pri soner Savill. I saw him ort the 24th of August last. I was in my garden. His garden ianext to mine, and List's next to his. He came up to me and said, " What do you think I have had thrown in my teeth to-day t" I said, " I don't know ;" and he then said fie had been accused of steal ing a copper coffin from underneath Stratford Chun*. He then pointed to Lists' house, and said, "He's the --.ti e 4 stole the:coffin, an d I' m the that sold it. I don't care about myself, as I know I shall be transported." After he stole the coffin he whitewashed it over. Several other witnesses having been examined, The Common Sergeant summed up. The jury had not returned their verdict when we went to press.

Hubbard, late Governor of the Bank of England, has under taken to build a large church, at his own expense, in Bald win's-gardens, a densely populat e d di s t r i c t on the north side of Holborn.

RARA Avis.—A beautiful specimen of that very rare bird, the cream-coloured courser, Cursorius Europesus, was shot this week in the Hackney Marsh, near the Vic toria Station, by Mr. G. Beresford, of the White House. It was found in the open marsh, and ran with incredible swiftness, so as to render it very difficult to make it take wing, and thus secure a better aim. The last of this species known to have been killed is in the possession of the Rev. T. Gisborne, F.L. S., of Yoxhall-lodge, Staffordshire, which was shot on the 15th Oct., 1827. The bird is now in the care of J. Cooper, Radnor-street, St. Luke's, for preserva tion, SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. NEWMARKET HOUGHTON MEETING. WEDNESDAY.

Since the announcement was made a few days ago by the Secretary of the Atlantic Telegraph Company that a message had been received through the cable from Newfoundland, the public have naturally expected to hear from day to day that the electrical communication has again been firmly established between Valentia and Newfoundland. But since Wednesday. the 20th, the day on which the message was received, there has been no indi cation of a permanent improvement in the electrical condition of the line. As, however, the circum stances under ;which the few words which passed through the cable were received at Valentia have not been made public, it may be as well to mention them. On Wednesday, the 20th, the day in ques tion, about three o'clock in the afternoon, consider able appearances of signals manifested themselves upon the galvanometer, with oscillations of the needle equal to 50 divisions of Professor Thomson's scale, which, as they occurred at very regular in tervals, were rightly supposed to be the usual re versals every 15 seconds. These appearances con tinued until between five and six o'clock in the evening, when the words " Two hundred," and some 15 or 16 letters, of which no sense could be made, were received. Subsequently, the signals " Can you ?" (no doubt " read") were received very clearly. Messages were, of course, immediately sent back to the effect that the Newfoundland sig nals and words came very distinctly, and, if they could read from Valentia, to send " V ;" but, as no direct response was received to this, it was of course concluded th a t it was not received. Between seven and eight o'clock on the same evening the words "Daniels now in circuit" were distinctly recorded, together with a great many signals which were not intelligible. These unreadable motions of the needle continued until between nine and ten p.m., when the words " Two hundred and forty," which no doubt alluded to the number of cells contained in the Daniels battery, which was spoken of in the message previously received, and a great many letters and signals, of which nothing connected could be made, were received. During the next hour for receiving, say from eleven to twelve p.m., the needle of the galva mometer was watched most closely, yet strangely, though the insulation of the wire appeared to be in precisely the same condition, not the least indica tion of even a " reversal" was observed, the wire appeared to have sunk into its usual lethargic con dition. During Thursday and Friday, though the most vigilant watch was day and night kept upon the galvanometer, no appearance of returning cur rents could be observed, though the earth current during the whole of this period seemed to be re markably steady. On the morning of Saturday last, between 9 and 10 o'clock, some slight indica tions of signals and reversals were noticed ; but they were neither very intelligible nor enduring. From thence up to the present time nothing more has been received. And yet the testings do not show that the cable, in regard to insulation, is in a worse condition than it was a month back. It is certainly a most extraordinary and unaccountable fact that, apparently with all circumstances the same, the cable should at times be found capable of transmit ting signals, while at others not the faintest trace of a signal can be made to pass from shore to shore, even with the greatest amount of electrical power. There is, indeed, " more 'twixt heaven and earth than is dreamt of in our philosophy." The advance of electrical science every day brings to light start ling facts connected with submarine telegraphs of which no one previously had the least idea. Thus within the last few days some important discoveries have been made in connexion with submarine cables by Mr. Charlton Wollaston, of Derby, who has elucidated the fact that currents of water passing across submarine cables produce in them induced electrical currents. To put this theory to a practi cal test, Mr. Wollaston a day or two ago immersed a considerable length of an insulated conductor in the Thames, opposite East Greenwich. As the tide rose, a very considerable current of electricity was observed flowing through the wire in a direction contrary to that of the tide, which increased in force as the motion of the water became more rapid, and again declined at high water, ceasing altogether just before the ebb. When the tide fell the current again manifested itself in the wire, but its direction was changed. The varying and irre gular currents which are observed upon the galva nometer at both ends of the Atlantic cable have been attributed to the inductive influence of natural im pulses of electricity which are continually travers ing the surface of the earth. Since that discovery of Mr. Wollaston's, however, it is quite evident that they may partly, if not entirely, be due to the effect of the ocean currents. It is known that a very rapid tide flows in and out of the estuary of Dingle Bay, across which the cable is laid, and it would, therefore, be very easy to put the matter to practical test by noticing the force and direction of the supposed " earth " currents at the rise, fall, and turn of the tide. The Stag, with seven miles of the shore end of the cable on board, arrived in Valentia harbour last night, and Captain Kell will no doubt commence laying it without unnecessary delay. There is one rather dangerous reef of rocks lying about one mile and a half or two miles outside the mouth of Valentia harbour, called the Coast Guard Patch. On this rock there is about ten fathoms at low water and about 26 fathoms all round it. Un fortunately, as the Agamemnon entered the har bour, owing to the wind being unfavourable, she was obliged to lay the cable over this spot. It is thought that the drifting of the cable over this place might have partially caused the injury which has stopped the working for so long a period. From this point it will, of course, be removed, and deposited in the most secure and level channel into the harbour. With the view of discovering such a channel, Captain Kell has for the last few days been closely sounding every approach to the bay, both on the Valentia and the Lough Kay sides of Beginiah Island. As there is already between four and five miles of the shore end of the cable laid down, the additional seven miles which will be added to it by Captain Kell will render the rope quite secure against injury from the wash of Cie tide. _ _ It is understood that Mr. Henley, whose powerful magneto-electric machines have for some time been used at Valentia, has undertaken to superintend the electrical operations at Valentia for a short period. If the next accounts from Newfoundland should show that the reversals from Mr. Henley's instru ments have been received from Valentia, no time will be lost in despatching a similar piece of appa ratus to the station at Trinity Bay.—Daily News.

Although to-day's market was but moderately supplied with beasts, all breeds moved off slowly, at Monday's cur rency. The show of sheep was rather limited in number, and of very middling quality. The mutton trade was heavy ; nevertheless we have no change to notice in the quotations—the best old downs having sold at 6s per 81b. Calves were in short supply, and sluggish request, at un altered currencies. Pigs and lunch cows were heavy, at barely stationary prices. Per 8113 s. to sink the offal. s. d. a. d.

The iron paddlewheel steamvessel Jackal, 4 guns, late an particular service, Lieutenant-Commander Charles T. W. G. Cerjat, is ordered to be received at Woolwich to be fitted with a couple of boilers, constructed of the newly-invented homogeneous metal. Other samples of a different description of plate iron for making ships' boilers have also been. received at Woolwich for experiments. The plates are made and case-hardened on each side by two separate establishments in Yorkshire. The paddlewheel steam transport Dee, Master Commander Pullen, recently fitted with Mr. Part ridge's improved superheating apparatus, is to sail from Woolwich to-day, laden with steam gear, for the westward. Mr. Taplin, assistant inspector of steam machinery, is ordered by the Admiralty . to accompany the Dee for the purpose of witness ing and reporting on the machinery, and to conduct the experiments, that an accurate comparison may be made between the performance on the machinery worked by the new apparatus on the present and former voyages. A Dutch squadron of five screw men-of war, con sisting of the frigate Evertzen, 51, Captain May, flag of Rear-Admiral t'Hooft ; the frigate Admiral, van Wassenaer, Captain de Vaynes van Bracken, 45 ; the corvettes Vice-Admiral Koopman, 12, Capt. Ivan der Mare ; Citadel van Antwerpen, 12, Capt. W. A. de Gelder ; and Vesuvius, 12, Captain F. de Casembroot, arrived in St. Helen's-roads on Tues day at 8.30 p.m., and steamed up to Spithead yes. terclay morning, where it anchored at 9 o'cloc k. The Dutch Admiral saluted the Governor and the Port Admiral, and the compliments were duly acknowledged by her Majesty's ship Victory and the garrison battery. On anchoring. his Nether. lands Majesty's Consul at Portsmouth, the Cheva. lier Van den Bergh, went off and paid his respects to Admiral t'Hooft on board the Evertzen, and, haying received his commands, left, under a salute of 11 guns. Subsequently, Admiral t'Hooft, companied by his Flag Lieutenant, was presented to the Commander-in-Chief, Sir George Seymour, at the Admiralty-house, and to Major-General Sir James Yorke Scarlett, the Governor, at the Government-house, by the Consul. On the arrival of the Prince Consort with Prince Alfred at Spit. head, the whole of the squadron manned yards and saluted, which was repeated when the Euryalus put to sea. The Dutch squadron is from the Texel, and will remain at Spithead a few days to coal, &c., after which it will lea v e f or a cruise i n th e Mediterranean. The screw steam-sloop Racer, 11, Commander the Hon. T. Pakenham, sailed from Plymouth for Lisbon on Monday. On Sunday the transport Havering, 775 tons, Captain C. Vane, arrived in Cork harbour for the purpose of embarking troops for India. She had on board draughts comprising 12 men of the first battalion Ist Regiment, 30 of the 44th, 55 of the 66th, 12 of the third battalion 60th Rifles, 14 of the 74th Highlanders, and 50 of the 91st, which. had been embarked at Gravesend on Friday week. She will take on board 116 men of the 68th Regi ment, and 18 of the 69th, from the depot battalion at Fermoy, and will then proceed with the whole to Madras. The troopship Hougoumont sailed out of Cork harbour on Sunday for Calcutta with the detachments she had embarked for that port. The fifth battalion of the Military Train passed through Dublin on Tuesday en route for the Cur ragh of Kildare, where they are to be stationed for the winter months. The troops were in full marching order, and were accompanied with the re quisite number of guns, ammunition waggons, &c. The following appointments were made yester day at the Admiralty : Lieutenant—William S. Brown, to the Boscawen. Midshipmen—E. C. Hawarth, to the Virago ; S. Howe, to the Marlborough ; T. S. Dickson, to the Renown. Paymaster—H. E. L. P. Bailey, advanced to third class. Clerk—William A. Haverfield, to the Hannibal. THE ARMY. Instructions have been to the officers com manding the battalions of infantry at Chatham that the whole of the non-commissioned officers and men under orders to embark for India early in the ensuing month are to be furnished with the new description of uniform recently sanctioned by the Secretary of State for War. The usual half-yearly inspection of the troops at Chatham is ordered to be made by the Commandant of that garrison, commencing with the corps of Royal Engineers, under the command of Colonel H. Sandham, after which the battalions of the depots of the line will be inspected. Brevet-Major C. S. Gordon, Major of Brigade at Chatham garrison, has been granted leave of ab sence until the 30th of November. Since the removal of the North Cork Rifles from Sheerness to Aldershott the garrison duties at that station have devolved on a body of 200 Royal Marines fromChatham,under the command of Lieut, Colonel March, and a party of the Royal Artillery, It is now intended to remove another Militia regi ment to Sheerness, when the Royal Marines will rejoin head-quarters at Chatham. MILITIA. The Royal Glamorgan Light Infantry Regiment of Militia, under the command of Colonel C. I. Kemeys Tynte, M.P., was inspected at Cardiff, on the 14th inst., by Colonel Patton, inspecting field officer of the Bristol district, who expressed himsel much pleased with the steadiness of the men under arms and the progress they had made in their drill. The regiment was dismissed, after 21 days' tre! in _ ing, on the 18th inst., and since then a consiAerable number of the men have volunteered to the regular forces. The West Suffolk Militia, upwards of 500 strong, having undergone their 21 days' training at Bury St. Edmund's, were reviewed on Monday in the Cricket-field by General Slade, from Colchester Camp. The men were put through a variety of evolutions, at the conclusion of which the General expressed his satisfaction at their martial appearance. Colonel Deere then addressed them, and advised them to enter the regular service. The men were disbanded on Tuesday, and since then recruiting has been going on pretty freely. MR. T. BAZLEY AND THE _REP.RESEN: TATION OF MANCHESTER. Mr. Thomas Bazley issued the following address to the electors of Manchester yesterday : " Gentlemen,—A vacancy in the representation of this borough having occured by the lamented death of the late Sir John Potter, M.P., many of you have done me the honour of requesting me to offer myself as a candidate to represent you and the important interests of this mercantile and manufacturing city in the Commons' House of Par liament.
