CITY, Two o'CLocK, The markets for foreign and colonial produce during the last few days have exhibited rather more activity, and prices, in some instances, have slightly improved. A fair amount of business has been done in tea, and prices have shown an upward tendency. Sugar has been in more request, and the better descriptions of British West India have advanced fid. to is. per cwt. In coffee the transactions have been of a very limited character, but prices have been steady. Rice has been in more demand, and .iome large sales of the lower descrip tions have been effected for exportation, at slightly advanced rates. Fruit continues in fair request, and the better qualities of currants realise full values. Valentia raisins have been dealt in to a moderate extent, and at fully late quota tions. Saltpetre continues in moderate demand, and prices show a further upward ten dency. lii tallow a large speculative business has been transacted for spring delivery, and prices have improved ls. per cwt. At the public sales of foreign and colonial wool the rates current at the commencement of the series have been maintained. The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday presented a very firm appearance, and 10,000 bales were dis posed of at very full rates. The Railway Share Market closed with animation, and prices slightly advanced. It appears that the statement recently circulated to the effect that the steamer Pera, appointed to leave Southampton to-morrow for India and China, would convey £400,000 or more was incorrect, the amount to be remitted being less than half that estimate, as will be seen by the subjoined parti culars : Alexandria, silver £Boo Ditto, gold Madras, ditto 630 Calcutta, silver 104,285 Hong Kong, ditto 29,600 Shanghae, ditto 11,041 Manilla, gold lO,OOO Total.. £171,756 The following arrivals of specie have been an nounced thii morning, viz.: —£182,261 by the Magdalene, from the West Indies, and a small amount from Antwerp by the Baron Osy, valued at about £14,000. Continued easiness and abundance are reported in the New York Money Market. According to the latest advices discount accommodation was still obtainable at 34- to 4 per cent., although the im provement in trade was necessarily giving employ ment to a larger amount of capital. It appears that the exchange was heavy, and the ex portation of specie to Europe would, in all probability, diminish. The New York Herald observes that the " Exchange on England is dull at the last reported rates. It is not likely that we shall now ship any specie of consequence to Europe for some months to come, and as, by the time the cotton bills are coming forward freely, the specie will be returning to us from the South, the prospect is that in December or January the banks here may again accumulate over thirty millions of dollars." The operations in the Discount Market continue very moderate, and at the Bank of England the applications are still on an extremely limited scale, the difference between, the minimum and the terms current in Lombard-street being about s per cent., which enables the bankers and brokers to secure, with few exceptions, the current supply of com mercial bills. Very little business has been transacted in public securities to-day. The few dealings recorded, how ever, are of a favourable character, and strengthen the quotations, although the variation is unim portant. Consols are 9811 for money, and 981 for the account. It is expected that the exchanges and the Bank Return this evening will present an improving tendency, and the market is firm in consequence. Bank Stock is 225. The New Threes are marked 961 97, and the Reduced Annuities 961 K ; the New 21 per Cents., 821. India Stock remains steady at 2261 ; but the Debentures are flat at 99z 4. Exchequer Bills, June, are 295. to 325. prem. ; and the Bonds 100 , :. The transactions recorded in the Foreign Stock Market are rather limited, and prices in some in stances evhibit a slight improvement Turkish 6 per Cents. are 921 93 ; ditto Scrip, Ist issue, I dis. to par; and ditto, 2d issue, 4 to 1 prem., being flatter.

Business in the Railway Share Market has not only been naive, but prices have exhibited more buoyancy—several of the principal lines showing an improvement of about 4 to 1 per cent. Eastern Counties, Great Northern, North-Western, and South-Eastern have advanced about ss. ; Caledo nian, 10s. to 15s ; Lancashire and Yorkshire, Brighton, Midland, and several others were steady at yesterday's quotations. In the Foreign Market no business of any import ance is recorded. Pernambuco improved about 55., and Great Luxembourg brought former rates. The Colonial undertakings were dull. East Indian improved about 55., and • Grand Trunk of Canada 10s. ; Great Indian Peninsular were a shade flatte r. Joint Stock bank shares show little variation. London and. Westminster have improved 55.; and City Bank, ss. In the Miscellaneous Market Canada Land were dealt in at 113 ; Electric Telegraph at 114 to 115 ; and National Discount Company at 4f to 414.

VIENNA, Nov. 16.—The monument erected at Prague to the memory of the late Marshal Radetzsky was uncovered on Saturday, the 13th inst., in pre. sence of a great concourse of spectators of high and low degree. Already at nine o'clock the prin cipal streets of the capital of the ancient kingdom of Bohomia—which was incorporated with Austria in the year 1437—were crowded with people, who were on their way to the scene of action, and an hour later only persons who enjoyed the especial protection of the authorities were able to get to the square or Platz, on which the statue of the deceased warrior stands. The windows of the housess which overlook the place were occupied by the fashionable of the city and on the tops of the roofs were "perched" very many members of the stronger and more adventurous sex. At 10 o'clock the garrison, under the command of Lieutenant- Field-Marshall, Count Clam-Gallas, reached the Platz, and on its arrival the military bands struck up the march which Strauss wrote some years ago, snd dedicated to the Marshal. The open space left between the temporary galleries and the monument was filled with veterans who bad served with Radetzky during the War of Liberation (the war against the Emperor Napoleon I.), and in the galleries, or tribunes, as they are here called, were assembled the high and mighty of the land. Among the persons present were his Eminence the Cardinal-Archbishop of Prague, the Marshals Prince Windischgratz and Count Wratislaw, Baron Mecsery (the Stadtholder of the province), the Generals who served with and under Radetzky in Italy, - the Estates (Stande) of Bohemia, and the Burgomaster of the city of Prague. Shortly before 11 the Archdukes Albrecht, Ernest, and Joseph arrived, and as the clock struck the hour their Majesties made their appearance in a car riage drawn by six beautiful bays. The Empress was conducted to a box which had been prepared for her, but the Emperor went with his suite into an open tent. As soon as their Majesties, who were received with loud and prolonged acclamations, were seated, Count Erwin Nostitz, the President of the Society of the FriendS of Art, addressed the Emperor, and humbly requested him to put his signature to the document by which the friends of art in Bohemia made over to the city of Prague the monument which had been erected by them to the memory of the deceased Marshal. The deed of gift having been read aloud, the bands struck up the na tional anthem, and salutes were fired while the linen covering was being withdrawn. It is not known to me whether the monument is likely to take a high place as a work of art; but it must be sup posed that the cast is good, as the Emperor congra tulated M.

THE MISSING POLICEMAN.—The body of the missing policeman was discovered yesterday afternoon in the canal, opposite the Boyton Arms. There did not appear to have been any violence. The supposition is, that a gale blowing at the time, the unfortunate deceased lost his hat, and in attempting to recover it lost his balance, and was precipitated into the canal. He was much respected, was 32 years of age, and leaves a widow to lament her loss. A MYSTERY UNSOEVED.—About eight years since the whole county of Sussex was in a state of ferment, at the supposed murder of Mr. Griffin, of the Rock Bre wery, Brighton. The circumstances wider which this gen tleman came to his death were enveloped in a great mystery —a mystery which has not been solved to this day. It will be recollected that he was returning home from Horsham, and had called at llenfield in the way of business to receive money and orders. On the high road at New timber (near the Devil's Dyke) he was found dead, having been [shot through the heart. The horse and gig with which he was travelling were found at some distance away, the reins were cut, one step of the gig was bent, and from the disordered state in which everything was left it was surmised that Mr. Griffith (who was a powerful man) had been attacked by robbers, and that a severe struggle had ensued, in which the unfortu nate gentleman had been assassinated. He was known to have had a considerable quantity of money on him at the time and also a watch ; but when his body was discovered bosh money and watch were gone The latter had been atfached to a chain, and portions of this chain were left on the neck ; and the inference was that great violence had been used in effecting the separation. This watch was found on Monday last la the mud of a pond a t N u tk now l, by a man who was " muddling." The pond is close to the turnpike-road along which Mr. Griffith passed on the night of the murder, and about three miles distant from the spot where his body was discovered. The watch was a gold one, and the dial plate and hands are quite destroyed, but it is identified by the remaining portion of the chain, which was hanging to it. The discovery of the watch does not in any way serve to elucidate the mystery which still en shrouds this singular murder.— West Sussex Gazette. ACCIDENT TO MR. LANGTON, M.P.—We regret to state that our respected representative, Mr. Langton, M.P., met with an accident on Monday evening, which might have been attended with serious consequences. About six o'clock in the evening Mr. Langton was passing along Regent-place, Clifton, and stepped into the hole of u coal cellar, which had been carelessly left open by a carter, who having delivered a load of coal, had gone into the house to be paid for it. Mr. Langton sustaided some severe bruises, but happily escaped without a broken limb, and we are glad to find that the honeurable m:mber has not been confined to his house.—Bristol Mirror. PRICE. OF GoLD.--The quotation of gold at Paris is about I per mine discount, the short exchange on London is 2i-10 per £l. On comparino these rates with the Eng lish Mint price of £3 17s. 101 d per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is 2-10ths per cent.:dearcr in Paris than in London. By advices from Hamburg the price of gold is 425} permark, and the short exc h ange on London is 13-11 per £1 sterling. Standard gold a t t h e Engl i s h Mi n t price is therefore about 2-10ths per cent, dearer in Hambarr than in London. The course of exchange at New York on London for bills at 60 days' sight is about 110 Far cent., which when compared with the Mint par between the two countries, shows that the exchange is slightly in favour of England ; and, after making allowance for charges of trans port and difference of interest, the present rate leaves a small profit on the importation of gold from the United States, [UST. LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.) COURT OF CHANCERY. (Before the Lord Chancellor.) APPEAL.-WRITTINGTON V. EDWARDS. At the conclusion of the arguments of counsel in this cause, the Lord Chancellor dismissed the appeal, with costs. COURT OF PROBATE. (Before the Judge Ordinary and a Special Jury.) TRYSON AND OTHERS V. WESTROP AND OTHERS. The examination of witnesses in this case, which has already been before the Court for two days, was resumed this morning. It is a testamentary suit with respect to the last will and codicils, dated respectively the 17th of Jan., the 23d of May, and the 24th of August, 1857, of Mr. Eyre Coate, of Cambridgeshire, deceased. The plaintiffs in the case were the executors named in the will, and the defen dant, Mr. Westrop, opposed the grant of probate of the codicil dated the 24th of August, on the ground that at the time of its execution Mr. Coate was not of perfect testa mentary capacity, and that he had been induced to sign it by the undue influence of other parties. Mrs. Cut ting, who was deceased's heiress-at-law, and her son, opposed the grant of probate of the will and both the codicils. The testator was a superior farmer, living on and farming his own land, at Fordham in Suffolk. At the time of his death he was 46 years of age, a bachelor, and possessed of personal rproperty valued at about £12,000, and real estate amounting to £l,lOO per annum. It appeared that Mr. Eyre Coate was , addicted to habits of intemperance until within a short time of his decease. Mr. Westrop was a very intimate friend and near neighbour, who associated much with the testator, and accompanied him in his excursions to the coast. An other intimate friend named in the will was Mr. Hurstwick, who was a solicitor in practice at Fordham, and who had managed Mr. Coate's affairs for nearly ten years. Deceased was of perfect testamentary capacity at the time he signed his will and the two codicils before the Court, and his rea son for making the last codicil was, that during his last at tack of illness Mr. Westrop had done several things to displease him instead of endeavouring to make him comfort able. Mr. Eyre Coate had for some time before his death been afflicted with a pulmonary complaint, which ended in consumption. He died on August 25, 1837, at Lowestoft, where he resided for his health. [The case was proceeding when our reporter left.] THIS DAYS MARKETS. CORN EXCHANGE'. The arrivals of English wheat, coastwise, dm:ng the week have amounted to 1,570 quarters Fresh up this morning the receipts were very moderate, and the show of samples was consequently somewhat limited. Good and fine qualities were in fair request at full prices, but other kinds moved off slowly at late rates. We were again extensively supplied with foreign wheat, in which very little business was transacted at Monday's cu'rency. There was a fair enquiry for malting barley—the supply of which was :I 4 mited—at high quotations. Grinding and distilling sorts were dull, but not cheaper. Malt changed hands to a fair extent on former terms. Oats were steady at late quotations. Beans, peas, and flour quite as dear as on Monday. ARRIVALS TATS WEEK. Wheat. Barley Malt. Oats.

POLYTECHNIC IN STITUTION.—AmongS t the varied attractions of this celebrated institution, that which at the present time excites the greatest curiosity is an invention of a scientific gentleman named Moule, called the photogen, or light generator, by which photographs are taken by light. Previous to the introduction of the photogen, at tempts had been repeatedly . made and much money expended by some of the most eminent photographers in England, France, and America, to obtain photographs by artificial light, but without success ; the electric, hme, and other lights proving, through want of diffusive power, irrespective of their costliness, totally inadequate, but this difficulty has now, in a most perfect manner, been surmounted. In order that the important discovery may become generally known, a lecture of great interest is now in course of delivery, by Mr. E. V. Gardner, late of the Royal Naval College, and professor of chemistry to the institution, which, for origi nality of thought and beauty of illustration, has never been excelled even at this celebrated establishment. The lecturer enters into all the many attempts that have been made to produce a light of sufficient diffusive brilliancy for photographic purposes ; and, ix the course of his remarks, introduces the " Moule" light, which, as he truly remarks, rivals the sun in brilliancy. In order to test the invention the apartment is darkened, and, in a few seconds, one of the most beautiful specimens of photography is produced, far surpassing in tone and colour those taken by the ordi nary day process. The lecture on artificial light is alternated during the week with another, also delivered by Mr. Gard ner, on the adulteration of food, which, although not affording such scope for brilliant expeliments, is equally interesting.

MICHAEL, Acting Registrar of Bank Returns. Inland Revenue Office, Nov. 13, 1858. THE PUNJAUB. (From the Times' Correspondent) LAHORE, SEPT. 28. By the last mail you will have heard that there had been more bloodshed in the Punjaub. The disarmed sepoys broke out at Mooltan, because they could not stand being quietly discharged. They mutinied in the pluckiest manner ; they were utterly "licked" in half an hour, and driven into the jungle, where in the course of one week they were hunted up and " accounted for ;" and you know that in Punjaub phraseology " accounting for" means the extreme fate due to mutineers. We are very sorry that they would insist on breaking. out. Mre meant that they should go quietly home ; as they decided otherwise, their blood is on their own heads. At other stations they are going off quietly enough in parties of 50 a day. In the course of two months or so we shall have got rid of some 12,000 of them. They had all along been hoping that an opportunity would arise when they might once more strike for power. At times, however, they were heartily sick of remaining in camp in front of guns and guarded by sentries, and doubt less they sighed for home. But when the time cline for going home, and also for being finally dis charged, and losing all h o p e o f res t ore d i n fl uence, then their hearts tidied them and their disappoint ment was bitter. Moreover, they could not believe our assurances ; they felt that they had given us cause for undying vengeance, and they expected that when separated into small parties on the road they would be " polished off" in detail. They ex pected to be buried in the jungle or drowned m the rivers. Such are the terrors of a sei oy consci nee.' The last of the fugitive mutineers who took refuge in the Himalayan regions are pricked up from time to time. The other day a party of ninety, after ex traordinary wanderings, were trying to escape by Thibet and Chinese territory. Fancy that world of glaciers and rocks and literally howling wilder ness being traversed by sepoys born in the hot and fertile plains of ilindostan ! But a pur suing destiny awaited them. They were fol lowed by a civil officer (Mr. Knox) and some th'rty Sikhs and hill-men .and were captured in Chinese territory. That a single European with a few Punjaubee followers, separated by some 20 marches over several mountain ranges from all European support, should be able to take so large a party in the remotest Himalayan uplands shows that British prestige still lives even in the rudest localities. _ _ _ You will hear by this mail that a moveable column of some 700 Europeans—lnfantry, Cavalry, and Artillery—have left Lahore for Dera Ismail Khan. The abortive conspiracy which occurred there some six weeks ago will be fresh in your recollection. Since then nothing further has gone wrong. But still the symptom was and is significant. You know how in epidemics the first case is thought so ominous. That Dera I sma il Kh an a ff a i r was with us- the first case of political cholera. We have had a brush of the fiend's wing, and, perhaps, he may pass on in his flight! But it is no good to cry peace, when, after all, there may be no peace ; and the Punjaub Government is on the watch, and will take every precaution. At Dera Ismail Khan there is a fort and magazine, which heretofore has been held by Punjaubces. That will now be gar risoned by Europeans. Punjaubee troops on the frontier—our own subjects there—our indepen dent neighbours on the border—will now be shown that even on that remote and isolated frontier we trust ultimately to nobody but our own people. The lesson may, perhaps, be in time; and the people there, seeing that we are able to command, may be willing to obey. Is it not strange that tha a t t s a o u b l e v e e ll troops ol. i tr r i a ni s t n h ut e il er K isr lan of w l T E r 5 e 7 the mutinous 39th N.I. was sent there to be dis ttihleouPgliltrij armed and guarded, and the duty was done right faitAfullv at a time when we were really in the air ? A year afterwards, when we are comparatively strong, a conspiracy is found out among the Pun jaubces, while the 39th N.I. remain quiet! Otherwise all continues well in the Punjaub as yet. The symptoms in the heart of the Sikh coun try—i.e., round Lahore and Umritsir—continue quite satisfactory. Our military service is still very popular with the Sikhs ; we could raise any number of yeomen at short notice, and that is a capital sip. The Punjabee soldiers serving abroad in Oude and Hindostan write home 'in the best spirits, and send remittances to their villages, which remittances are highly appreciated as among the blessings of British rule. Numbers of Punjabee women will this next cold weather be travelling down to Hindostan to see their husbands, and to bring back home the savings and the plunder. On the frontier, no doubt, the Mahomedan tribes are watching to ace whether an opening in our armour will not show itself, so that they may give us a stab ; but they give no overt sign whatever ; in fact, they commit fewer raids on their territory than they used to do. BELIEFFOR THE HOMEWARD BOUND Application to the Admiralty for the despatch of one or more men-of-war to the Chops of the Chan nel for the relief of the mercantile marine in want of assistance has been promptly granted : "Admiralty, Nov. 18.
