CITY, Two o'CLocx. The operations to-day were confined principaly to sales, and this brought about a general dulneFs. The increased demand for specie for the Continent has not tended to improve the state of affairs. The Government Securities gave way a shade in value in sales for money, but for the Account the prices of yesterday were maintained. The demand for United States and Continental Securities has not been better than that for English, and as far as improvement goes we can only note Ame rican 5-20 Bonds as the stock to which such favour able return has taken place. The railway market is by no means active, but an improvement has taken place in South Westerns. The rate of money on 'Change is 3 per cent. for first-class paper. Consols are 924 a for money ; ditto, for Ac count, 93 ; Three per Cent.

According to Reuter's telegram this morning the French Rentes were 70f 85c. In the Foreign market Italian of 1861 and Peru vian of 1865 are to -I- per cent. lower, at 541 tol and 79 to respectively, but Spahish of 1867 have risen' i t , the present price being 311 to 31/. Brazilian of 1865, 791 to 80 ; Chillian of 1867, 941 to 951 ; Egyptian of 1864, 811 to 891 ; ditto of 1868, 754 to 76 ; Mexican, 14/ to 158 Russian of 1866, 931 to 94 ; Nicolai, 661 to 6 7 ; Ore], 811 to 1 ; Moscow, 79-4- to -1 ; Turkish o 1858, 621 63 ; ditto of 1862, 66 to 1 ; and ditto of 1865, 401 to 1. American Five-Twenty Bonds have risen to 831 to n. Erie Railway Shares, 251 to 1 ; Illinois Central,97 to 1. ; Atlantice and Great Western De bentures, 33 to 1 ; and the Consolidated Mortgage Bonds, 32k so 33. In the railway market London and South Western are 1 per cent. higher, viz., 88 to 90. Great Western has improved k, viz., to 481 to 49. London and North Western, 1131 to / ; Midland, 1168 to 1; Great Eastern, 378 to / ; Brighton, 491 to 1; South Eastern, 761 to 1 ; Metropolitan, 1028 8, ex div. ; Great Northern, 1071 to 108 ; ditto A, 1051 to 106 ; Caledonian, 78k to 1 ; and London, Chatham, and Dover, 161 to /. No intelligence has yet come to hand respecting the overdue ships on which such high premiums have bcen paid, namely, the River Hooghley, C. C. Colgate, Santiago, Jeff Davis, and the West. The premiums paying on the ship Juhn o'Gaunt, for Calcutta, have receded to-day from 50 guineas to 40 guineas, an opinion prevailing that she got safe out of the Channel, and that the wreck seen to founder off the Smalls was a much smaller vessel. The tenders for the unallotted portion of the Victorian 5 per cent. Railway Loan were opened yesterday at the London and Westminster Bank. The total mount tendered for—at or above par, the fixed minimum—was only £347,400, of which £.85,700 was above par. The highest price offered Was £lOO 12s. 6d. It is understood that the rest of the loan will be held over until receipt of fresh instructions from the Victorian Government, which cannot arrive before July next. As of the £643,000 tendered for on Tuesday only about half was on account of genuine applicants, it appears that the total now taken of the £2,107,000 offered is but about £700,000, a' natural result of a too exciting policy. At the meeting of the Great Western Railway Company, Sir Daniel Gooch in the chair, the report was adopted after a short discussion, and the divi dends declared. The chairman stated that next Month the broad gauge to Birmingham would be done away with, and the rails taken up immediately upon the narrow gauge being found secure. Bills of exchange on the Government of Ceylon for 200,000 rupees were disposed of yesterday by tender at the offices of the Crown agents for the colonies. The minimum fixed was ls. Hid. per rupee, and the whole amount was taken above that rate. The report of the London Bank of Mexico and South America (Limited), to be presented on the 19th inst., shows an available total of £25,049, in cluding a previous balance of £4,954, and recom mends a dividend for the half year at the rate of 8 per cent. per annum. Advices from the North give a further list of small failures, mostly caused by recent embarrass ments of larger firms. At Manchester the suspen sion is announced of Mr. George Milne, cotton spinner, of Oldham and at Glasgow that of Messrs. Wilson, Ker, and Co., and Messrs. Mac donald and Co., the latter in the woollen shawl trade. In neither case are the liabilities believed to be heavy. Vice-Chancellor Sir John Stuart yesterday granted an order for the Port Philip and Colonial Gold Mining Company (Limited) to reduce its capital from £500,000 to £200,000, and the shares from £5 to £2; and that the words " and reduced" be removed from the company's title from this date. At the public sale at the Open Stock Exchange (Limited), yesterday, Agricultural Hotel aad Farmers' Club Company (Limited), £lO fully paid, sold at 295. per share; Albion Bank (Limited), k . 15 paid, £8 17s. per share ; and Alhambra Com pany (Limited), £lO fully paid, x.d., £9 17s. per Share. The weekly return under the Cotton Statistics Act states that the quantity of cotton imported during the week ended yesterday was 33,803 bales, of which 11,405 were American, 10,216 Brazilian, 8,577 East Indian, 2,656 Egyptian, and 954 miscellaneous. The export was 9,868 bales, of which 6,593 were East Indian, 1,482 American, 1,280 Brazilian, 146 Egyptian, and 367 miscella neous. The creditors of the International Life Assurance Society are required to send in the particularr of their debts to Mr. E. S. Symes, the official liquida tor, by the 31st inst.

ILLNESS OF ONE OF THE CAMBRIDGE CREW. —The aquatic public will learn with the deepest regret, fully shared in by the Oxford crew, that one of the Cambridge men, Mr. Mellor, No. 7, is so unwell that be is obliged to be withdrawn from the boat. lb was labouring under an affection of the throat and cold, on Thursday, when Mr. Stall, of Caius College, took his place for the day. On Fri day Mr. Mellor resumed his place in the boar, but this morning was so much worse than before as to leave no prospect of his being able to renew his labours in the boat. The Oxonians went out this morning a little after 11 dow❑ through Putney-bridge for a paddle. T hey are rowing strongly and well. SPORTING PROPHECIES. THE NORTHAMPTON MEETING. " BELL'S LIFE."

Thomas Mills, a lad, was charged with stealing a spoon and fork, the pro - perty of Messrs. L0i!..1 and Souhatniner, of the Loudon Pavilion Music flail. Mr. Philip Fry, pawnbroker and salesman, of No. 2, Crown-street, Soho, said the prisoner came to his shop and showed him a spoon and a fork as a sample of some he wanted to sell. lie said he got the articles from the London Pavilion, and that ho wanted 9s. for them ; that he had pached up some spoons al.(1 forks ready for re moval, but that be could not bring then away tid twelve at night, as at that time the people were leaving the place, and every 0116 was busy, and that the way he got away with the articles was by going down stairs into the bowl ing alley, and thou working his way into a little court that took him into WiLdmil!-street. lie detained the prisoner, and gave hint into custody. Mr. Charles Smihannuer identified the articles produced as his property, and sail that the prisoner had beets em ployed for a day bottling beer, and in consequence hal access to the place where the spoons and forks were kept for the purpose of being cleaned. Police-constable, 19 F H, said that he went to No. 2, Crown-street, at the request of Mr. Fry's daughter, and on asking the prisoner for the spoons and forks ho denied all knowledge of them.

The prisoner would be committed for three months' with hard labour. THAMES.

The mother of the child, Sarah Saunders, said that she lived with the defendant as his wife for seven years, and he was the father of two children. One was dead and the other was in court. Her " husband" came into the posses sion of money and property about three months ago, and he then abandoned her and her child. Mr. Paget—Why did he do so? Complainant—l had outlived his liking. He is the father of my child, and he was a good husband when he was a poor man, but since he has become rich he has discarded me. Mary Ann Hill, of No. 69, Lucas-street, St. George-in the-East, said the parties lodged in her house, and oc cnpied one room, between three and four years ago, and she knew that * they had lived together since as wan and wife. Mr. Paget said it appeared to be a hard case on the young woman, and as there was no denial, and no ap pearance of the father of the child, he must make an order upon him to pay 2s. 6d. per week and 4s. costs.

THE MANUFACTURE OF WATCHES AND CLOCKS. — A most interesting and instructive little work, describing briefly but with great clearness, the rise and progress of watch and clock makin , has just been published by Mr J. W. Benson, of 25, Old Bond-street, 99, Westbourne-grove, and the City Steam Factory, 58 and GO, Ludgate-hill. The book, which is profusely illustrated, gives a full description of the various kinds of watches and clocks, with their prices, and no one should make a purchase without visiting the above establishments or consulting this truly valuable work. By its aid persons residing in any part of the United Kingdom, India, or the Colouies,tare enabled to select for themselves the watch best adapted for their use, bud have it sent to them with perfect safety. Mr. Benson, who holds the appoint ment to the Prince or Wales, sends this pamphlet to any address on receipt of two postage stamps, and we cannot too strongly recommend it to the notice of the intending purchaser :CLIE 157411'1i ().Z LIE COUNTY OF TIPERRARY, - Baron Deasy, in opening the commission for the Sotiiii Riding of Tipperary, a few days back, referred to the un satisfactory state of the county. Ile observed that the calendar gave but an imperfect idea of its real condition. Shortly after the last assizes two men had been shot dead and several others fired upon at Ballycohey, but none of the persons concerned in the crime had been made amen able to justice. Shortly afterwards the public were shocked by the murder of Mr. Baker in his own demesne, near Bansha. In that case, too, no one had been brought to justice. That was a lamentable state of things. It produced a feeling of insecurity among all classes, and society became disorganised. He attributed the failure of justice to one of three causes, he could not say which— sympathy with the offender, sympathy with the crime, or terrorism, which closed the mouth of witnesses. He expressed a hope that every effort would be made to vin dicate the law. He found by the constabulary returns that no fewer than eleven threatening letters had been received by persons residing in the Riding. One gentle man had been threatened with death if he continued to make himself so conspicuous by his exertions as a magistrate to discover the murderer of Mr. Baker. His lordship alluded to other outrages, and remarked that the state of the Riding presented a sad contrast to its condition during his former visit to it. He added : " Then tranquillity appeared to exist, but now it appears Lhat beneath the surface there lay a spirit of lawlessness n d turbulence which has developed into open crime. I nnot tell to what we are to attribute this turbulence. It cannot be to distress or pressure, for the last harvest as admittedly an abundant one. There are no wrongs tinredressed. There must be some other cause for this state of things, although I cannot discover what it is." It may be observed that, in opening the Commission twelve months ago, Mr. Justice O'Brien congratulated the grand jury upon the tranquil' state of the county, as *hewn by the calendar and confirmed by the reports of the county inspector. There were then only twenty-two cases for trial ; whereas in the previous year there were eighty-two. When opening the commission at Mullingar, Chief Justice Monahan offered similar felicitations. The revival of crime in these and other counties this year must be a matter of deep concern to everyone who desires the welfare of the country. INDIAN AFFAIRS. The Duke of Argyll, Secretary of State for India, has instreceived a deputationof members of Parliament, mem bers of Chambers of Commerce, and other gentlemen from Manchester and the manufacturing districts generally, who waited on his Grace for the purpose of presenting memorials urging the policy of increasing the agencies by which India could be made a cotton-growing country, and praying that the means of irrigation and navigation and transit generally should be extended. -- The Duke of Argyll said he agreed with those who had urged that there should be a considerable com mercial element in the Indian Council. It had been arranged when the constitution of that body had been remodelled that seven of its members should be elected by the directors and eight by the Crown. As it had been also provided that some of them should have practical knowledge of India, the desideratum sought had been to a certain extent obtained. He mentioned the names of Mr. Arbuthnot and Mr. M`Na,ghten as those of gentlemen who had a thorough knowledge of the commer cial affairs of India. Some of the members of the Council who had at one time been connected with the East India Companyweie most go-ahead as regarded the promotion of public improvement in India. As an instance of liberal deal ing with Indian affairs, he would mention that some time ago it had been urgel that Darwar should be opened up as a cotton-growing district. His predecessor had asked for information on the subjeA, and as that information had not yet arrived, he had himself made inquiries, and having .ascertained that there was a strong pri2nd, facie case in favour of the project specified, he had given instructions that a surveyor should be sent out to make the neces ary examination. It was to be remembered that Government stood in a peculiar position as regarded land in India. It was the owner to a certain extent ; to that extent, however, there was a definite limit. The commercial classes should remember what a wide field for private enterprise existed in India. It was a great mis fortune that the aid of Government should be looked for in almost every instance ; scarcely a fence could be built in India without a claim for Government assistance. This, as he had intimated, was an unfortunate state of things which bad been developed by a system of grants and gua rantees. It was unfortunate for the agricultural prosperity of India that natural manure was to a large extent in that country used for fuel.—The deputation then withdrew. PRESERVATIO.Y OF SEA BIRDS. From New Zealand not long since a cry came forth that the small birds were getting day by day scarcer and scarcer, Early navigators had spoken with delight of the melodious notes with which the feathered songsters filled the woods' Now scarcely a note is to be heard. " The silence of our summer mornings," wrote a colonist, "is like a note struck out of natural melody." The common rat had worked all this mischief, robbing the ne Is of their eggs, and devouring the young fledglings. And now a complaint is made that in England cer tain birds —chiefly sea-birds—are being rapidly destroyed. In this case, it is to a cause of quite a diffe rent character that the destruction of the birds is ascribed. Can our .readers guess what that cause may be ? As Madame de Sevignd would have said, we " give them the riddle in ten ;" and we might give them a hundred guesses without their lighting on the truth. The ladies and the fashion are the cause of the terrible destruction of sea-birds. We have it on the authority of a Fellow of the Royal Society. Mr. Flowers states that " the fashion adopted by ladies, of wearing feathers in their hats and bonnets, has resulted in the terrible destruction o f g re b e s, kingfishers, seagulls, &c." So far has this destruction proceeded that the Manx authorities obtained a special Act of Parliament—not, indeed, to pre vent ladies from wearing feathers in their hats, but to prevent the destruction of sea-birds on the coasts of the Isle of Man. And the reason they allege for desiring the preservation of the birds will perhaps seem to many as sur prising as the cause of the birds' destruction. It appears that the cries of the birds are a more effectual warning to seamen of the dangers of a rock-bound coast than light houses or fog-bells. In storms, doubtless, the roar of the breakers would drown the cries of the birds. Yet birds when they please can make hideous noises. Audubon speaks of one "which utters a shriek so loud that the woods echo for miles around to the dismal sound." And White of Selborne, says he has " known a whole village up in arms on account of the cries of the white owl, imagining the churchyard to be full of goblins and spectres." It has been calculated that within a short time last year 230,000 eggs and young birds were destroyed along only eighteen miles of the coast of Yorkshire. It is time that something were done to save these useful creatures. We fear ladies will hardly adopt Mr. Flowers's suggestion, that they should leave off wearing feathers in their hats, nor is it likely that an Act of Parliament will be brought in to render the wearing of feathers a misdemeanour, punish able by the confiscation of the offending ornaments. But we may help the sea-birds in other ways. Bustards, storks, and cranes have been lost to this country in long past ages for want of efficient protection ; it will not do to let seagulls, grebes, and kingfishers be destroyed likewise. We must watch our sea-birds as carefully as we have been watching our river fish ; and the process will doubtless be as effective in one case as in the other. Nature, says the Poet Laureate, is " careless of the type ; she cares for nothing ; all must go ;" and if Nature operate in this particular case through the fashions, her destructive influence is likely to be none the less effective. It is in the power of man, however, to limit her action, or at least to delay its effects ; and this is a case in which it behoves us to exercise this power.—Daily News. Archbishop Manning is now in France, and is expected in London in the middle of next week. CHURCH DISPUTES.—Mr. Arthur Helps, in Good Words, says : " I am lost in astonishment when I contemplate the questions,' as they are called, which are debated by the different religious parties, and respecting which they become furious. Vestments, iutonings, pro cessions, altar-cloths, rood-screens, and genuflexions, are made to be matters of the utmost importance; and all the while the really great questions are in abeyance. It reminds me of children playing at marbles on the slopes of a volcano, which has already given sure signs of an ap proaching eruption." SHELL EXPLOSION AT WOOLWICH ARSENAL.— An accident occurred at about eight o'clock an evening or two back, at the Leal Rooms of the Shell Foundry at Woolwich Arsenal, by which three men, named John Merrick, John Early, and James Fuller, were severely injured. It appears that they, with three others, were melting the lead off some condemned 40-pounder Aim strong segment shells, by placing them in a bath of red hot metal, held in huge cauldrons, and one of the shells, which had, through i n ad v e r tence , been returned as " emp ty," must have still held its bursting charge o r powder, and, in consequence, no sooner had the charge become ignited by the heat of the metal, than the shell exploded, dashing the fragments around, and scattering the scalding metal over the unfortunate men attendin g the operation. Several pieces of th e s h e ll b urst tl ° the roof, tearing the solid frames an d thick shee:trt of g a g u las h :- into splinters. Happily the inj ur i es received are n fatal nature, though Early an d F u ll er are terribly bruised and scalded. EDITION . NOTICh.

CARDINAL CULLEN AND THE FENIAN TESTI MONIAL. DuELIN, March 13. Cardinal Cullen, in a letter published this morning, tells the amnesty committee he will give no permission, direct or indirect, for a collection on St. Patrick's Day, at Dublin chapel-doors, for the released Fenians. He regards the movement as a stratagem to obtain from the country a mark of approbation of their conduct. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE —This Day KINGSBURY MEETING -THIS DAY. (BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.)
