MONEY MARKET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE, A further influx of gold amounting to £112,000 was taken to the Bank of England yesterday after- noon. The interest on the debenture issue of the East India Land Credit Company will be paid at the London and Westminster Bank on and after the 29th instant. • The specie movement during the past week has been of a rather extensive character as regards the imports, which have been £868,753, chiefly from the West, and Pacific, and the East Indies. The exports have only amounted to about £200,900, chiefly in silver to the Continent. Two O'CLOCK. All the Stock Exchange Markets are dull, owing to the inertness of speculation. There are, more over, no investments of importance to create buoy ancy, but there is nevertheless a:considerable degree of stolidity. Consols,for example, areB9kkformoney, and at 891 I for the account, being the same as they were yesterday afternoon. Not until thefull holiday season shall have elapsed is there likely to be any revival of enterprise. Dealings have taken place in other securities as follows :—New Threes and Re duced Annuities are 864 87 ; Exchequer Bills, 3s. prem. ; India 5 per Cents., 1041 ; and ditto En faced 4 per Cents., 84. Very few alterations of importance have taken place in the prices of Foreign Stocks to-day, but Turkish 5 per Cents. have receded to 31i 1 ; and Italian 1, 564 I.

The discount demand at the Bank and in the open market is very active, and the commercial community are providing for the engagements ac cruing at the end of the quarter. The 4th of the month is also approaching, and there is therefore little doubt but the inquiry will continue brisk till the end of the week. The floating capital of the bankers is not so abundant, and the increased want of money tends to enhance the value of the rates, 'Which are firm at the Bank minimum.

Can any of your readers give me a correct list of these serials, with the dates of their issue, and any particu lars as to the line of religious and political argument which they follow ? I have in my library several such serials, more or less perfect ; but the earliest of them is called "Catholicon, or the Christian Philosopher, a Roman Catho lic Magazine, ece.(Keating,Brown, and Keating, 1815)." The first volume, which bears on its title-page the motto, "Si quis Cathedra] Petri jungitur, meus est, S. Moron," ex tends from July to December, and comprises only 240 pages; and, to judge from the advertisement and preface, t was originally brought out as " The Publicist," but the name of " Catholicon" was adopted at the conclusion of the first volume, as more characteristic of its views and objects. It appears, also, that it was a long time in embryo -before the first number appeared ; at all events, " The Publicist" was announced among the new books in "The Laity's (R.C.) Directory" for 1810, which, of course, would be published in NoVeniber, 1809, though the publication of the magazine was delayed till July, 1815. 1 shall be glad if any of your readers will kindly supplement these re iwtrks by any information Irvin other sources. 122 /23 S 3 F 5 20 21 2 25 10 117 )IS 10 82 64 10 67 18 11 128 129 84 2 3 p 0 101 11 11 94 9k i 1201 1/ 2 a 2 17 99 V 0 22 10 IC3 tut t 37 G 9 CO 102 11 34 36 18 9 10 /1 120 i 25 7 1 2p 7 1 2p 10 71 73 11 114 118 /0 152 156 )0 75 ;7 - - 43 15 67 68 11 8 _9 14 145 2 3; 00 - - 51 63 SESSIONS.' 11 51 66 0 I 93• 100 8 id 44 ip 1 4 Ll 74 86 76 80 16 60 65 11 100 102 JO 991 ICO 0 99 101 I I 2 - i; 22 I 86 8D ,1 58 58 I 48 52 [1 50 55 11 45 50 11 40 0 11 36 3) 11 25 27 11 24 26 )0 104 107 8 4 1 1 6 1 95 100 91 93 11 111 141 ,8 51 5 d 11 al 93 11 ti 3 2' i )0 .08 00 10 h S 4 80 8; 8•I ,00 96 98 100 94 ;t6 2 1} 1(1 100 95 97 00 - - S BEARE 'THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 29, 1866, This Day. Election of Lord Mayor—This Day. IRELAND. The annual assembling of the livery, for the pur pose of electing a citizen to fill the office of Lord Mayor for the ensuing year, took place to-day in the Guildhall. The Lord Mayor, Aldermen, and Sheriffs having attended Divine Service, at St. Michael's, Bassishaw, proceeded in procession to the Guildhall. After the usual proclamation had been made, The Common Sergeant, in the absence of the Recorder, come forward and told the liverymen they were assembled that day, according to ancient usage, to elect a fit and proper person to fill the office of Lord Mayor for the ensuing year, and, in order that the choice of - the limy might be made impartial, the Lord Mayor and Aldermen would retire while the election took place. A LIVERYMAN said, before the aldermen retired, he should like to ask Alderman Gabriel, in the event of his being elected, whether he would support the charter and uphold all the rights and privileges of the livery ? He thought that vas a question that ought to be answered by every alderman before they were elected to fill the important office of Lord Mayor for the City of London . . Mr. Alderman GABRIEL said he had no hesitation in answering the question. No person venerated more highly than he did, or could do more than he would to uphold all those charters which conferred liberty and privileges on the livery of London. (Cheers.) Mr. Sheriff WATERLow called upon the Common Crier to read the rest of the names of those alder men who had not yet passed the chair, and a show of hands was tdten as each name was announced. For Alderman Gabriel nearly every person present held up his hand, and for the others but one or two hands were displayed. The Sheriff then announced that the election had fallen upon Alderman Gabriel and Alderman Allen, and the names of these two gentle men were then forwardeil to the Court of Aldermen. _ . After an absence of about a quarter of an hour, the Lord Mayor and aldermen returned to the Guildhall, and announced that the election had fallen on Alderman Gabriel. The Lord Mayor elect then returned thanks, and said he should do all in his power to uphold the dig nity and hospitality of the office. Mr. C. REED moved a vote of thanks to the Lord Mayor, after which the proceedings terminated. fore an object of great importance to o;e — ishe; to render the passage between the lakes practicable. During the famine an attempt was made to run a canal be tween them, but it failed, and by using thispartially Messrs. Ashworth attempted to construct a pass for the salmon. But though this answered in the winter, when the water was high, the pass was all but dry in the su mmer , an d _ _ some other means had to be attempted. At length, by groat labour and perseverance, and by cutting through much of the robk, Messrs. Ashworth have contrived, after au expenditure of between £2,000 and £3,000 to make a now pass some 50 yards in length into that part of the canal which can be made serviceable, and thus the diffi- culty has at length been overcome. This great under taking will have the effect of throwing open to the salmon a district of between 30 and 40 miles square, which abounds in fine breeding streams never yet tenanted by salmon ; and the result inn few years will probably bo to make Messrs. Ashworth's fishery the most prolific in the world. And well do they deserve such a reward. It is by steady perseverance in works like this that Ireland may hope to raise herself from poverty and discontent ; and it is to be hoped that these brilliant examples of what can bo done in salmon breeding will not be lost upon ourselves.—Pall Mall Gazette.

SINGULAR SUICIDE.—On the 9th of September a married woman, a German, residing in New York, poisoned herself, led to do so by continued depression of spirits, superinduced by bad health. Before committing suicide she made up a set of mourning dresses for her mother and children, put crape round her, husband's hat, and prepared and laid out her burial clothes. SALMON BR If Ireland is behindJ7son737ranches of industry, in one at least she is before us, viz., in the cultivation of her salmon fisheries. No people have fought so hard or so successfully to rescue their salmon fisheries from the de struction that threatened them from the employment of impassable weirs and nets, which, by obstructing the pas sage of the salmon to their spawning beds, would soon have made their rivers barren altogether. That the more en lightened part of the Irish community, backed in their efforts by the poor fishermen themselves, have succeeded in removing these fatal obstructions to a large extent is solely due to a strict unity and a sturdy perseverance ; and if all Irish difficulties were dealt with as this has been, there would soon be little talk of injustice to Ireland. Bu t the Irish have gone far beyond this, and by the ingenuity. perseverance, and judicious speculation of various owners of fisheries, they have carried • out some of the most striking works fur the, enouragement of salmon breeding to be seen, not only in the kingdom, but iu the world. Whoa M. Crumes made his tour of inspection of our salmon fisheries on behalf of the French Government some years since, the work which he thought most worthy of notice was the formation of the salmon ladders on the CaUoonoy River near Sligo. Here there are three falls, ono of which is about 301 t. in depth, and over these no salmon could possibly pass, the consequence being that two fine rivers and a chain of largo and important lakes remained entirely unproductive. The later Mr. Cooper, of Markree Castle, Sligo, however, conceived a plan for making these fine waters a noble salmon fishery ; and, having obtained an act of Parliament to the possession of that which might result from his skill and labour, he set to work to render the falls passable to the salmon. Two simple lad ders were applied to the smaller falls without difficulty-- the highest, however, required much care and labour; and after many failures he contrived, by means of a double ladder or a flight of stairs with a resting pond in the middle, to render the fall practicable to salmon ; then by stocking the river above with breeding fish he in a very few years became the owner of a fine salmon fishery worth many thousands of pounds a year. Some time afterwards, Mr. Boswell came into possession of a group of small lakes near the sea coast in Connemara, not far from Clifden. At a place called Doohullah, asmall obstructed passage permitted the overflow of those lakes to find its way to the sea. Mr. Boswell, by advice of Mr. Ffennell (the present inspector of salmon fisheries for England, who at that time was inspector for Ireland), cleared out this passage and made it a practicable stream to the sea. He next connected several of the lakes by cut ting channels between them so as to combine them together ' into one fishery. He then stocked the head waters with the ova of the salmon trout, a fish in value only second to the salmon ; and in due time had the satisfaction of finding himself the proprietor of an astonishingly prolific salmon trout fishery, in which it had boon no uncommon thing for ono boat to take 1 cwt. of fish to a couple of rods in the day. The fishery then passed into the hands of the present pro prietors, who conceived the desire to convert it into a salmon fishery, and, under the care of Mr. Romsbottom, of Clitheroe, whose son is so successfully conductingthe great experiments in Australia, they contrived to stock the head waters with a large quantity of salmon ova. It was thought for some time that the experiment had failed, but at length the happy day arrived when a fine shoal of grilse ran into the lakes and took up their abode there, and since that time the fishery has flourished and increased in value. Many important and perploxing points in the history of the sai mon were solved in the course of this experiment. About the same time Messrs. Ashworth bought the far famed Galway fishery. Its fortunes were at a very low ebb when they bought it, but by opening the weir to the passage of salmon and by judicious preservation of the tri butary breeding streams, Messrs. Ashworth increased the production of the river to an anormous extent. It is now one of the most valuable in Ireland; and perhaps no more striking sight can be seen in its way than to stand on the bridge at Galway and net the salmon lying in shoals below. The water is extremely clear, the channel rocky, and the salmon within a space of 100 yards or so may be seen of all sizes, from 61b. weight up to 101 b. or 201 b., in shoals to the number of from 300 to 500; a most astonishing sight, and worth a journey thither to behold. The upper water of the Galway fishery consists of a large lake, Lough Corrib, but there are few breeding streams running into it, and there-. fore the produce of the fishery is to some extent limited. Situate at the head of Lough Corrib is another large lake, Lough Mark, which sends its water into Lough Corrib by a semi-underground passage, impracticable to fish. Many fine breeding streams fall into Lough Mark and other small lakes connected with it. It was there LAW INT tiSHOREDITCH COUNTY COURT. (Before C. Coleman, Esq.) IMPORTANT POINT IN THE LAW OF MASTER AND SERVANT.- LAWS V. SILVERSTONE. This was an action to recover wages actually earned, and defendant pleaded that plaintiff had discharged him self without giving proper notice. It appeared that the plaintiff was a carter in the servico of the defendant, and he said that one day he worked seven hours, at the expiration of which time he met a gentleman who offered him more money than ho was getting from de fendant: In consequent° of this offer plaintiff did not go to work any more for defendant, but sent another man to take his place. It was customary in his calling for both masters and men to give up work at a moment's notbe. . _ llis Hotiour—You surely do not mean to say that in your business you can quit your work without giving any no tice ? Plaintiff—lndood I do. Defendant said that although the men worked seven hours a day they did not work under the hour system like carpenters, being always pail on the Saturday night as weekly servants. In all his experience ho never knew such a custom as that detailed by the plaintiff. The man sent iu by the plaintiff did not suit, and plaintiff by his absence caused defendant considerable inconveuience. His Honour said he could not b e li eve - that the custom sworn to by the plaintiff could exist ; if it did, it would be perfectly monstrous, and it would enable every man who perceived he could get a better place to leave his master and cause great loss in trade. Looking at the facts of the case, the verdict certainly must be for the defendant. Verdict for defendant. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day. -~- MARLBOROUGH STREET. WHOLESALE ROBBERY BY A TOWN TRAVELLER.--401.111 Alison, traveller, in the employ of Mr. Septimus Augustus Whitfield, silk mercer, of Nos. 141 and 142, New Bond street, was charged, before Mr. Knox, with stealing 141 yards of silk, the property of his employer. Mr. Samuel Stalham Hope, Mr. Whitfield's Manager, said the prisoner entered Mr. Whitfield's employ, as town traveller, in August last, and the prisoner had the privilege of taking out silks to sell. Th e p r i soner t oo k out several pieces of silk, and they were entered to the customers' account in the day-book on the prisoner's coming home every evening. The prisoner had absented himself from business on two occasions, alleging as the reason the deaths of friends. The last timo was on Monday last, and as tho prisoner did not . re turn he sent to inquire if the persons the prisoner spoke of were dead, and found they were aot, and in consequence of this he wont to the persons the silks were entered to, and found that they had never received them. He then sent one of the young men for the prisoner, and the young man brought him to the house, but while ho (Mr. Hope) had been sent for the prisoner made off, first having given up four duplicates to the young man, all of which related to silk, and a number of other duplicates were found in the prisoner's desk. The prisoner was last night met with and given into custody. Charles Henry Ewins, clerk in the employ of Mr. Whit field, proved seeing the prisoner in the White Bear Hotel, Piccadilly, last night, and, on telling him the charge against him, he asked whether he thought ho would get off if his friends compromised the matter with Mr. Whit field. He Then took the prisoner back to Bond-street, and gave him into custody. Goorge Herbert, assistant to Mr. Starling, pawnbroker, of Great Portland-street, produced a piece of silk pledged by the prisoner in the namo of "Spencer" for £B. Mr. Hope said the piece of silk was exac - ly like that taken out by the prisoner, and lie could swear to the wrap per being the same. The invoice of the silk was found on the prisoner. Sergeant Shillingford, 4 C, proved taking the prisoner into custody, and finding the bottle labelled "Poison" in his possession, and the invoice of the silk. The prisoner asked him if he thought Mr. Whitfield would_ compromise the matter. Mr. Knox remanded the prisoner for the attendance o. other pawnbrokers. WESTMINSTER. BRUTAL ASSAULT UPON A WOMAN.—James Downey, a labourer, was charged with a most unmanly assault upon Ellen Gappery. • The complainant, a slight young woman, with an infant in her arms, exhibited a closed eye and much contused face. She said that she had had the misfortune to become acluainted with the accused, who was the father of the child she held in her arms. Yesterday morning she was sitting with a friend on the step of the door of her houso in Ball's-head-court, Westminster, when defendant came to the other side of the way and called her. Ho imme diately approached her, and assaulted her in the way she now appeared. Mr. Selfe—What did he strike you with—his fist? Complainant—No; he took his boot off and struck me with it. Mr. Selfe—Had you the child in your arms ? Complainant—l had. I don't wish to hurt him; he has a hold over me, by being the father of my child. Mr. Selfe—lt is not what you personally wish, it is what is beneficial to others. Defendant—l was rather the worse for liquor. Mr. Selfe—That is no excuse. Y ou d r i n k , an d tho na tural brutality of your disposition comes out. Defendant—l am verry sorry. Mr. Selfe—And so you ought to be. This is not one of the cases where the brutality is committed upon the in stant. You deliberately take off your boot and beat this poor woman about the head with it like a brute. lam de termined not to lot the intercession of women interfere to prevent proper punishment of such offence; which aro a great deal too common. Defendant—l hope you will be lenient. Mr. Selfe—l will not. You are committed for two months to hard labour, and to enter into recognisances for six months more. MARKE TS. —This Day. COVENT GARDEN.

The two candidates, Lard Alfred Churchill on the Liberal side, and Mr. Bowel Gwyn on the Conservative, declare their deter mination to go to the poll, and the contest promises to be a severe one. The constituency is very limited. Both the candidates were present at an agricultural dinner at Brecon last week, but by mutual consent refrained from political talk. THE STRIKE IN THE IRON TRADE.--There are hopes of a settlement of the ironworkers' strike at Cangett, in the county of Durham, one of the large districts which are now out. A number of puddlers went down to the office of the works on Thursday, and gave in their names as wil ling to commence work at once at the reduction; and down to Thursday night 100 names had been entered. That night the managers of the works sent round the bellman with a notice that all puddlers, furnacemen, and others desirous of going to work were to be at the furnaces yesterday (Friday) morning to light up, so that it is likely that tho mills at Cowell would work yesterday.

Extraordinary Charge of Robbery against ti Bank Clerk. At the Mansion-house, yesterday, James Wm. Woods, a tall, gentlemanly-looking man, who was stated to be only 22 years old, was brought before Alderman Lusk, M.P., who presided in the absence of the Lord Mayor, in custody of Michael Haydon, the detective officer, charged with stealing a £lOO Bank of England note, the property of Messrs. Barnett, Hoare, and Co., the bankers, of Lombard street. Mr. Muliens, the solicitor to the Bankers' Asso ciation, attended on behalf of the prosecution ; Mr. IVeatherhe id, from the office of Mr. T. Beard, ap peared for the prisoner. The case appeared to create a good deal of interest from the cireunistances connected with it, and also from the fact that the prisoner, who had been for some - time in the service of the bank, is most respect ably coanected, and his father, who is an evensive farmer in Kent, has been for many years a tenant of Mr. Hoare, one of the partners in the firm. It appeared that on the 14th of September a sum of 1185 103. 61. was paid into the bank of Messrs. Barnett and Co., by a firm who kept an account with them, Messrs. Fauntleroy and Co., ivory and 'hardwood merchants in SouthWark, which amount was composed of a Bank of England note for £lOO and cheques, and in due course this note should have been placed to the credit of Messrs. Fauntleroy and Co., in their banking account. At the close of the day the balance was found to be £lOO short, and after an investigation had taken place into the accounts, it was ascertained that the defi ciency amounted in the loss of the £lOO note that had been paid in by the Messrs. Fauntleroy; and further inquiry led to the discovery that on the same day the note had been changed for gold at the Bank of England, and that it then bore the endorsement George Robson, King's Head, Borough. The matter was then further investigated by Mr. Mullens, who placed the inquiry' in tlie'hands of Haydon, a most experienced detective officer, and in the result the prisoner was taken into custody, and the evidence that was obtained to support the charge of having stolen the note in question was of rather an extra ordinary character. Mr. Gray, one of the principal cashiers in the bank of Barnett, Hoare, and Co., spoke to the ordinary course of duty being, when notes were paid in, that they were marked with the name of the customer and placed in a box, and were afterwards placed in .a ledger, but this particular 1100 note never seemed to have been so entered. He said that in the beginning of the mouth of September the prisoner asked to be permitted to have £lO as a loan for a few days, and he produced a letter purporting to be signed by a Mr. Farman, residing at Paddington, and which represented that he had sold a horse for the prisoner for £1410x., and that he should have the money in a few days. He allowed the prisoner to have the money, believ that he would be in a position to repay it when he received the money for his horse, and at the time he did not pay particular attention to the handwriting of the letter, but having since examined it more carefully, he was of opinion that it was written by the prisoner. - Some further evidence was then adduced, the effect of which was to show that the prisoner received the £lO and that he did not repay it at the time he had promised, and he was reminded of this fact, and he stated that he had sold a horse and would pay the money he had borrowed when he was paid for it. On Sept. 14, the day the note was stolen, the pri soner asked for leave of absence for two or three hours, saying that he was going up to the west end of the town to receive the money for his horse, and he left the bank, and it appeared that very shortly afterwards the note was changed for gold at the Bank of England. When the prisoner returned to the bank he appeared to have handed the cashier who hal advance.' him the £lO a post-office order for that amount, and at the same time asked him to change another for £4 103., representing that he had received the two money orders as the price of his horse. It turned out that on the day the note was changed at the Bank of England some person had obtained the two money orders in question at a post office in the neighbourhool of thford-street, in the name of Farman, and the usual post-office form for these money orders was filled up in the handwriting of the prisoner. It was also proved that the Mr. Farman referred to by him knew nothing of the pri soner, and there was no truth in his statement that he had been engaged in selling a horse for him. Michael Haydon was then examined—He said that in consequence of a communication he received he went on Sept. 20 to the bank of Messrs. Barnett, Hoare, and Co., and found the prisoner in a private room with Mr. Mullens, the solicitor, and Mr. Bar nett, one of the partners. Mr. Barnett, when wit ness went in, addressed the prisoner, and said he was sorry to tell him that he was suspected of having stolen a £lOO note, and he added that the circum stances were so suspicious that the matter had been placed in the hands of Mr. Mullens, the solicitor, in order that he might investigate them, but no one would feel more pleasure than he should if the pri soner could clear himself. Mr. Mullens then ad dressed the prisoner, and said the matter had been placed in his hands, and that it was necessary he should at once tell him that he had been assured that he had stated that he had gone to Oxford street to receive the money for a horse he had sold for £l4 10s., and that he was paid in two money orders, one for £lO and the other for £4 103. The prisoner bowed, and said " That is so." Mr. Mullens then proceeded to state to the prisoner that he had procured the forms when the money-orders were applied for, and produced them, and said it was his duty to tell him that the filling up of those forms, and the endorsement on the back of the £lOO note, when it was cashed at the Bank of England, ap peared to be in his handwriting. The documents re ferred to were then shown to the prisoner, and after looking at them he said, " If any one has been copy ing my handwriting I cannot help it. I never had the money, and know nothing about it." Mr. Mul lens then said that it would be his duty to charge him with stealing the £lOO, and witne3s took him to Bow-lanestation, where the charge was read over to him, and he made no reply. The prisoner, at his request, wrote the address of Mr. Farman in his pocket-book, and he produced it. The entry referred to was shown to the bench, and the writing appeared to entirely correspond with that relating to the alleged sale of the horse. There was also this remarkable coincidence that the word Paddington terminated in both documents with " don" instead of " ton." Mr. Mullens said this was all the evidence he was in a condition to produce on the present occasion, as the witness from the money order office could not attend on account of illness. He asked that the prisoner might be remanded in order that he might be enabled to bring forward additional testimony. Mr. Weatherbead asked that the prisoner might be.admitted to bail, urging that he was most respect ably connected, and that securities to any amount could be obtained. Alderman Lusk remandel the prisoner for a week and refused to accept bail. THE WORKING MAN'S FLOWER SHOW.—A very interesting ceremony took place last evening at the Agricultural Hall, Islington, viz., the presentation of the prizes awarded to the successful exhibitors at the flower show, which, during the present week, has boon' the groat attraction of the Industrial Exhibition. The monibers of the executive committee having taken their seats on the platform, at the extreme end of the lecture hall, in which the flowers have been so tastefully displayed, the secretary came forward and read the report, which stated that the flower show had been a great success, and tho floral specimens exhibited did the highest credit to those who had reared them.

At the termination of the proceedings, Mr. Broome, as ho left the platform, was perfectly overwhelmed with the congratulations of tho company. 1 THIRD EDITION. SUN OFFICE, 6 O'CLOCK. HOLLAND.

' The official returns relating to trade and naviga ! tion for the eight months en d e d A ugust 31 have ' been published. From these it appears that the total declared value of the•exports from the United Kingdom for that period has been £125,265,820, against £102,400,696 on the corresponding period of 1865, showing an increase of £228,651,124. The increase has been most perceptible in coals and culm, cotton yarn, cotton manufactures, earthenware, haberdashery, and millinery, hard ware and cutlery, linen manufactures, and woollen and worsted manufactures, but there is a falling off in beer, ale, machinery, thrown silk, and British spirits, and sheeps' and lambs' wool. The importa tionsof the principal articles have been larger as regards live animals, raw cotton, hemp, provisions, rice, tallow, sheeps' and lambs' wool, coffee, wheat, flour, brandy, unrefined sugar, tea, and wine. There has been, however, a diminution in palm oil, barley, rum, currants, and tobacco. The shipping accounts exhibit an increase in the amount of tonnage em ployed in the foreign trade of the United Kingdom for the eight months of 1 ,261,580 for the entries inwards, and of 1,069,324 for the clearances out wards. In the coasting trade for the same period there is also a slight increase in the tonnage of vessels employed for both the entries inwards and the clearances outwards.
