or MONEY MARKET AN r, CODIMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

A further sum of £47,000 in gold was taken into the Bank yesterday. The last week's railway receipts ascertained up to this day are in round figures as under : Great Western North Western SOT 1865. 1864 ... ... ... £69,484 £74,061 ... ... ... 114,825 111,638 o uth-Western • 24,466 26,421 Brighton .. 18,975 18,412 Midland 44,660 47,624 South Eastern 21,214 21,263 Great N or th ern ... 32,859 34,662 Lancashire and Yorkshire 39,330 40,390 Brietm - • Jristol and Exeter ... ... 6,868 Aorth Eastern ... ... 63,044 61,852 M anchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire 17;702 17,868 Great Eastern ... 31,099 33,010 These returns, when compared with those of the .

AND HIS LIABILITIES. This was an application for release, and the bankrupt de scribed himself as of 38, Queen Anne-street, Cavendish square, captain in the army, invalided, and now a prisoner for debt at No. 1, Bream's-buildings, Chancery-lane. He states on the proceedings that "the failure arises from your petitioner having incurred debts on behalf of the Hon. Richard Bethell, which he has failed to meet." Amongst a somewhat long list of creditors are the following:— West of England Life Office £l,OOO, and the bankrupt accounts for the dobt by stating that the office holds a joint and several bond of the Hon. •R. Bethel], self, and another person ; also a policy of insurance on the life of the said Hon. R. Bethell for £2,000. J. Jacobson, 30, Aikemarle-street, £252 ; holds bank rupt's draft, accepted by the Hon. R. Bethell for £252, dated May, 1864. F. Yates, 36, Henley-street, £406, holdsbankrupt's draft, accepted by the Hon. R. Bethell, for £4OO. Messrs. Lawrence, Plews, and Bowyer, who filed the petition, supported the present application for release, Mr. Spyer opposing for Mr. Jacobson. At a quarter to one it was arranged that the bankrupt should go out on bail. After the matter had been arranged the parties applied to the Commissioner to confirm it, but he declined. The Bankrupt—l owe my present trouble to having be come security for the Hon. R. Bethell, and if I am released I can, perhaps, induce him to do something for me. His Honour—He is just as likely to do it now. Perhaps Mr. Bethell may be appointed assignee. Mr. Lawrence—l should be sorry to propose him, and your Honour would not confirm it. His Honour then formally refused to sanction the dis charge, but said the application could be renewed upon the choice of assignees. Application refused. POLICE INTELLIGENCE,—This Day. MANSION-HOUSE. STEALING A PIANOFORTE.—A man named Godfrey was placed at the bar charged with illegally pawning a piano forte. From the evidence it appeared that the prisoner and a man named Nash went to Messrs. Moore, of Bishopsgate street, and hired a pianoforte. The reference used was satisfactory, and the instrument was lent, but in a few days afterwards the instrument was pawned. John Young, assistant to Mr. Attenborough, Fleet street, said—The prisoner came and asked if he lent money on pianofortes. He told him they did, and he (witness) asked how much he required. He said £4O as the instrument cost .£7O or £BO. He told him he would take the pianoforte in pledge if he could pro duce the receipt for its payment. He told him it was no use coming with the pianoforte without that document. He said he thought he could get that, and on the 25th of February the prisoner and a Mr. Nash called and said they had brought the receipt. He then told them to take the piano to the warehouse, and they did so. After this he told the men he could lend them .£lO on the instrument, and they returned to the shop. The prisoner produced the receipt, from which it appeared that the instrument had been bought of Messrs. Moore by a person named Parker for £42. _ _ A member of the firm of Moore and Co. identified the pianoforte at Messrs. Attenborough's warehouse as the ono lent to the prisoner. The prisoner was remanded in order that time might be allowed for the capture of the prisoner's companion, Nash. BOW-STREET. STEALING THE THIRD EDITION OF " THE SUN" NEWSPAPER. Joseph Thompson, an auxiliary letter-carrier and sorter at the General Post-office, St. Martin's-le-Grand, was charged with stealing one copy of the latest edition of The bun newspaper, of the 17th inst., in its course through the post. Mr. Peacock conducted the prosecution. Mr. Lord, superintendent of the Newspaper Department, General Post-office, deposed at about 28 minutes before 8 p.m. on the day in question he saw the prisoner, who was engaged in sorting the newspapers for the Eastern Coun ties line, put a newspaper into his coat pocket. He gave information to the inspector of letter-carriers. Mr. Steele, inspector of letter-carriers, stated that from the information he received from the last witness he sent for the prisoner to his room, and taxed him with having put a newspaper in his pocket. The prisoner admitted that it was true, took the paper from his pocket, and gave it up. It proved to be a late edition of The Sun. He excused himself by saying that he only took it to read because he had a son in America, and he wanted to read the American news. The paper had not been opened. It was addressed to Mr. C. M. Burton, Crown Inn, Orford, Suffolk. Mr. Andrews, the publisher of The ,s'un newspaper, stated he made up the paper himself, placed it in the envelope, and despatched it from the office by the messenger. Mr. Peacock—Do you often receive complaints of the non-delivery of The Sun newspaper ? Witness—Yes, the complaints from all parts of tho king dom were frequent, especially on the eve of an important race—the non-delivery of the paper on those occasions being particularly annoying to the subscribers. The third edi tion of The Sun, containing the return of the day's racing and the latest betting on forthcoming races, made it of special value to our numerous sporting subscribers in the country, who were dependent on the receipt of the paper for authentic information relative to the latest movements in the racing world. We have suf fered from this system of appropriation for years. Mr. Reed, the messenger, stated that on the day in question he received from Mr. Andrews, in the usual course, the copies of the latest edition of The Sun, to be conveyed to the General Post-office, which he duly delivered at St. Martin's-le-Grand at a quarter to 7 o'clock. _ _ Henry Rumbold, one of the police-officers attached to the General Post-office, deposed that he was oalled by Mr. Steele to take the prisoner into custody. On searching the prisoner he found on him two £lO notes, four £5 notes, £lO in gold, a handsome gold watch with his name "Joseph Thompson" engraved on it, a betting-book, and a number of cards relating to betting transactions, showing that he had been somewhat extensively operating on the turf. The prisoner said he only took the paper to read the American news. He was remanded for further examination. THAMES. EXTRAORDINARY STATEMENT.—A fbw days since a wo man, carrying an infant in her arms, came to this court, and said she had lost her little girl, aged five years, from her side, while passing through Whitechapel on her way from Sevenoaks, in Kent, to Bishop Stortford, in Kent, to meet her husband there. She also said that she was destitute, and was indebted to the police of the H division for her maintenance for two days. She was relieved from the poor-box. Her case excited much commiseration, and tho police were directed to assist her in looking for her lost child. The child was found, and she was sent away to Bishop Stortford with her children by rail at the expense of the poor-box fund. Mr. Partridge afterwards received several sums of money for her relief, but he refused to apply them as requested, because the woman had been already relieved, and there were no special circumstances in the case to call for the sympathy of the benevolent. This morning Mr. Partridge received a letter of which the following is a copy, and it conveys the astounding intelli gence that four men were convicted by country justices in their absence for committing an assault. Such a thing was never heard of before, and the invariable customwhich has been always adopted by the stipendiary justices of the police-courts of the metropolis was to grant a warrant for the arrest of the persons charged on their neglect to attend a summons, and not to hear the case until an arrest was effected : " Ashdon, near Saffron Walden, May 17, 1865. " Sir, —Having read an account in the newspapers of a woman losing her child in Whitechapel, I beg to submit the following for your worship's information respecting the woman who appeared before you on that occasion, and who gave the name of Priscilla Curzon, and who also left Ashdon under the following circumstances :—For almost two years past she has cohabited with a man whose name is Robert Curzon (which name she also assumes), a railway labourer, at Linton, Cambridgeshire, and Ashdon, Essex. On the 24th ult., at Ashdon, Curzon, with,several other railway labourers, committed a violent assault upon Mr. Paul Artis, agent to the contractor who is making the railway from Saffron Walden to Bartlow, for which offence Mr. Artis summoned Curson, with three others, to appear before the magistrates at the potty sessions, held at Saffron Walden, on the 29th ult. They neither of them appeared to the summons, but were convicted in their absence, and committed for six weeks hard labour without the option of paying a fine, and we now hold warrants of commit ment against Curson and the other three. The woman mentioned above took a very prominent part in that assault and broach of the peace, which I was called upon to quell, together with the assistance of the three parish constables ; consequently Curzon and the woman with the two children left Ashdon on the morning of the 29th ult., a few hours before the magistrates assembled in Petty Sessions at Saffron Walden. I beg that your worship will excuse me for taking this liberty, but knowing the woman's conduct whilst at Linton and Ashdon as being a a disreputable character, and finding that her statement as stated in the paper was truthful throughout, I have thought it my duty to submit the above remarks for your worship's further information.—l am, sir, your obedient servant, "ExocH RAISON, Police-constable, 96, Essex County Constabul ar y. _ _ _ . . "P.S.—I have written this with the belief that the woman who appeared before your worship is one and the same person that I have referred to. She is a tall, pale faced woman, about 35 years of age, wearing a plaid shawl. 6, E. It." Mr. Partridge said there was no doubt the woman calling herself Priscilla Curzon, who lost her child, was the per-- son who absconded from Ashdon on the 29th of last month. There was no doubt she lost her child, and was glad she had since found it. She had committed no imposition on him as regarded the loss of her little gill, SPORTING INTELLIGENCE, YORK SPRING MEETING—WEDNEsDAT. The near approach of the Derby always brings with it some starling movement affecting the position of favourites. York has not been wanting in this respect, and Gladiateur's sudden decline yesterday afternoon was followed up at the rooms at night by his still further retrograding to 14 to 1. However, before the close be was brought again and rein stated in the position he held before dinner. There are various rumours as to the cause of his decline, some assert ing that it has been found necessary to stop him in his work, while there is also a prevalent opinion that the horse is only being used for market purposes ; time will show. The sale of Mr. Jackson's and some other yearlings occu pied the morning, and the St. Albans and Thormanbys be longing to that gentleman fetched good prices. It was his first appearance as a breeder, and the condition and general appearance of the various lots reflected much credit on the care of his stud groom. There are only two events in the second day of York Spring that command much attention, and these are the Londesborough Cup and the Flying Dutchman's Handicap. The Consolation Scramble saw the great favourites, Regi nella and Summerside, upset by a scarcely backed outsider, Gil Blas; and the Eglinton Stakes was an easy win for Osiris. The Londesborough Cup w 0 a great surprise. Sundeelah, a horse who had run fourth in the Consolation Scramble, hero came out on a stone better terms, and squandered his field in a hollow style. The talent over looked him, for he was unmentioned in the betting. The attendance was smaller than yesterday, the weather everything that could be desired. We may add that Gladiateur has recovered from histem- Pol:arY "indisposition," 6 to 1 being offered about him this afternoon. Match for 50 sous ; llst each. Mile and a half. Mr. Bower's Redpole, 5 yrs (Mr. Boynton) 1 Captain Vyner's Bryan, aged (Mr. Thompson) 2 Betting-5 to 4on Redpole, who waited upon the non favourito to the turn into the straight, where he got up, and won very cleverly at last by three lengths. .

After one failure, in which Syren and Gil Blas ran into the distance, the lot left the post in close company, Sum merside in company with the favourite ; the Lady John filly and Syren being slightly in advance. They ran thus to half way in the distance, where Summerside was beaten, and•her place was taken by Reginella, who was imme diately after headed by Gil Bias, who crept up next the rails, and won very easily by three lengths, two lengths separating the second and third, and a length divided the third and fourth, Moll Flagon fifth, Barnoldby sixth, and Syren next. The last two were Dagmar and Lady John filly. The Eglinton Stakes of 10 sovs each, half forfeit, with 50 added, for 2-yr-olds, 7st ; and 8-yr-olds, Bst 121 b. Win ners extra, with certain allowances.

They were despatched from the post at the first attempt,' Grappler having slightly the best of it, Flying Horso and Skylark being his immediate followers, and wide on their right came Reindeer, Lozenge, Venice, and Sundeelah. On reaching the distance Grappler dropped back, and his place was then taken by Lozenge, who in turn was headed by Sundeelah, who came up next the rails and won very cleverly by a length ; twice that distance separated the second and third, and a length divided the third and fourth, Tartar fifth, Skylark sixth, and Reindeer next. The last two were Flying Horse and Castle Espie. The City Purse of 50 sovs, added to a sweepstakes of 5 sovs each, for 3-yr-olds and upwards. Weight for ago, with selling allowances. T.Y.O. 7 subs.

GRIFFTH said to-morrow he should ask the Government whether the reward of $lOO,OOO for Jefferson Davis had come under their attention, and whether any representations to the Government of the United States might not be to the effect of expressing a fervent hope that the hour of triumph might not be sullied by acts which appal the civilised world. THE SLAVE TRADE. Mr. POLLARD-URQUHART asked the Under Secre tary of State for Foreign Affairs when the slave trade correspondence for last year would be presented, and whether it would be distributed to members of both houses instead of its being left to members to ask for it ? Mr. LAYARD said it had just been laid on the table, and would, he hoped, be delivered to members on Saturday next. THE BISHOP OF CAPE TOWN. Mr. G. DUFF asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer under what circumstances a portion of the expenses in curred by the Bishop of Cape Town in his unsuccessful lawsuit with Mr. Long were repaid to him by the Trea sury ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said the circumstances of the case were peculiar. The Bishop of Cape Town presented a memorial to the Treasury saying that as he was engaged in trying a cause in which the rights of the Crown in the colonies was involved that a certain portion of the expenses might be borne by the Government. The memorial was referred to the Colonial-office, and it was there thought that the request of the bishop, owing to tho peculiarities of the case, ought to be assented to. Had it not been so decided the Government would have had to instruct the Queen's Advocate and the Solicitor-General to watch the case, but when it was found that tho Bishop of Cape Town had retained the services of those gentlemen the Crown thought the expenses which would have been incurred by the Crown might very justly be paid over to the Bishop of Cape Town. He was quite ready to produce the correspondence if it was required. Mr. H. SEYMOUR asked whether the amount would appear in the estimates ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER told the hon. member he had better move for the papers. ADMIRALTY ESTIMATES. In reply to Mr. Coanv, Lord C. PAGET said it was quite true that the number of marines was below the number voted in April, 1864. The number voted was 18,000, and the number raised was 17,061, nearly 1,000 under the estimate, and not the number the hon. member had stated in his question. The reason the original number was not raised was accordingly the ex treme difficulty of procuring recruits. With respect to the other number mentioned by the hon. and gallant gentle man, the number was only 55 under the estimate. He should have no objection to placing a tabular statement in the Navy Estimates which would show the state of the force each month, distinguishing the marines from the seamen and boys. THE CHAPTER HOUSE. Sir. S. NORTHCOTE asked the First Commissioner of Works whether it would not be possible to give the public greater facilities for visiting the Chapter House at West minster than they at present enjoyed? Mr. W. COWPER said the Chapter House had been closed since the records were removed from it. It was not open to the public, but it could be seen by any pe rs on desirous of doing so by applying at the o ffi ce of the Board of Works. notM bog ven. Mr. H.

Th e CHANCELLOR, of the EXCHEQUER said the in troduction of the bill mu st nece ssarily d epend _ on the time the estimates were produced. The inr?duction of the bill before the estimates, as was the case in 1862, would be found inconvenient, and, therefore, it would not be re peated. He thought it better that the discussion should first take place when the estimates were submitted, Mr. H. SEYMOUR asked when the estimates would be produced. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, in reply, said the moment the matters between the Board of Works and the trustees of the Museum were settled. THE CASE OF MR. BETHELL. Mr. FERRAND asked the Attorney-General to inform the house by whose authority the written statement was prepared from which, on Monday last, h to the questions relating to the Ba n k ru ptcy s y read Court a t L r % F ed i e s s , and whether he would lay it upon the table of the house ; also, whether he would lay upon the table the letter of Mr. Welch, tho registrar, which he read to the house on Tuesday last, to complete his previous statement, as well as the letter of the Hon. Richard Bothell, confirming the same ? The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said he felt certain that such an extraordinary question had never been heard in that house. (Hear, hear.) When he saw the hon. gentle man's former questions on the, paper, he felt it to be hie duty to obtain the best and most authentic information 4 , 114 to givo it to tlus houso ou PWU good faith and responsibility. The memoranda h? had collected in the course of that duty was not, and could not, be considered public property ; and, therefore, he should boldly refuse to produce it. (Hear, hear.) The letters he had read last night we re a l so not public documents, but if, between man and man, the hon. gentleman wished to see them, he could do so. The other letter for Mr. Bethell he could see as a gen tleman, but he distinctly, and on his own responsibility, should object to produce them. (Hear, hear.) Lord R. CECIL asked the Speaker whether letters quoted by a Minister of the CroWn in the course of his speech ought not to be produced if desired. The SPEAKER said the Attorney-General was not bound to produce the papers referred to. (Hear, hear.) CROWN SUITS, Mr. HADFIELD aiiced the Attorney-General if he in tended to proceed with the bill to amend the practice in Crown suits, or whether he would delay it until after the holidays, to give time to consider if the practice of regis tering Crown debts could be amended by clauses to be in troduced to render it unnecessary for bona fide purchasers of real estate to incur the expense of searching the registry before they can complete purchases. Tho ATTORNEY-GENERAL said he did not feel dis posed to postpone the bill until after the holidays. Ilet would put it off until that day week. MILITARY TELEGRAPHY. Capt. JERVIS asked the Under Secretary of State for War whether any system of telegraphy had been adopted for the army. The Marquis of HARTINGTON said a committee had inquired into the subject, and had made certain recommen dations. He believed the plan submitted by Capt. Bolton would be adopted. As soon as the matter was decided the house should immediately be made acquainted with the facts. UNION CHARGEABILITY BILL. The house then went into committee on this bill. (LEFT SITTING.)

MILLER, Chief Cashier. May 18, 1866. City Sewers Commission, The Commissioners of Sewers for the City of London met on Tuesday at the Guildhall, Deputy Do Jersey pre siding. The Commissioners were for a long time occupied in hear ing appeals against the rating of certain premises in the City, and in receiving tenders for cleansing, dusting, and watering the City for one year from the 25th June next. A letter was read from the City Remembrancer stating that the Union of Benefices Amendment Act had been with drawn, and the petition in opposition which had been agreed upon would therefore be unnecessary. Deputy BURNELL said he considered that the petition from the commissioners against the bill should have been pre sented a long time since, in order that the attention of the House of Commons might have been drawn to the subject, which, in his opinion, was one of very considerable import.. ance. The inhabitants of the parish of St. Benet, Grace church,hadbeen induced to agree to theunion of that bene fice and to the removal of the parish church, in order that a great public improvement might be carried out there by the widening of Gracechurch-street and Fenchurch-street; but now, instead of that improvement being effected, it was contemplated to sell the site after the church was removed to the highest bidder, and the original idea would be com pletely frustrated. The bill which had been introduced into Parliament was for the purpose of getting rid of the sanction of the Venerable Archdeacon Hale to the proposed sale by auction, which had up to that time been withheld, but since then, ho (Deputy Burnell) understood the arch deacon had withdrawn his opposition, and it was now de termined not to proceed with the bill. He strongly de nounced any attempt to sell the site of the church in the manner proposed, which would have the effect of defeating the original intention of the inhabitants in giving their consent to the union, and he regretted that a petition hid not been presented to the House of Commons directing their attention to the question. (Hear, hear.) The matter then dropped. A petition was presented to the Court on behalf of several of the inhabitants of King William-street, asking the Court to take into consideration the necessity of the removal or modification of the present statue of King William. The petitioners considered that the entire removal of the statue, and the substitution of an ornamental pillar, would be a great boon, inasmuch as it would give to the roadway a considerable increase of space all round the present base ; it would prevent nuisances which at present existed ; it would afford a safer land ing-place for foot passengers, and give light to the road, which was so much needed, especially in the winter season. They also contemplate the future state of the traffic in that neighbourhood with great anxiety. The new railway terminus in Cannon-street (now almost complete) must of necessity add considerably to the present traffic, and as the principal traffic from the east of London to that terminus would necessarily pass behind the statue (it being the only direct line of communication), it became a serious question how such a stream could ever pass through a road which was only 22ft. wide, and which at present was always in a crowded state. In addition to this a station of the Metropolitan District would be erected still closer to the statue, where every fraction of available space would be required for the accommodation of the traffic which must be expected. Should the commissioners consider it inex pedient to remove the statue entirely, the petitioners sug gested a modification of its present dimensions by remov ing the railings and massive lamp-posts which now encir cled it, and cutting away the projecting base of the pedes tal. This would effect a clear gain to the roadway of 6ft. all round it and the footway as wide as at present. They trusted that one of these propositions would meet the favourable consideration of the commissioners, thereby correcting a great evil. They urged the first as the effectual remedy, and the last as a great improvement. The matter was referred to the General Purposes Com mittee to examine and report. In consequence of repeated complaints made by the inha bitants of the Poultry of thenoise and inconvenience arising from the iron pavement laid down there, Mr. Deputy Tegg presented at a recent meeting of the commission a nume rously-signed memorial asking that it should be removed, and a granite pavement substituted for it. On that occasion the subject was referred to the engineer to consider and re port, and to-day Mr. Haywood brought up his report, in which he stated " The object of laying down the iron pave ment was to ascertain if it would last longer than granite, and lead to economy as well as diminish the inconvenience to the public consequent upon the frequent stopping up of the carriage-ways for paving purposes. Experience has not hitherto proved this to be the result. It remains, however, to be seen how long the iron pavement in the Poultry will last, but if it be removed immediately this experience will not be gained, and the main object of the experiment will be lost. The pavement is at present in a sound condition, and will, I think, last very well if not disturbed till next spring, and I consider that it is a secure pavement for vehicular traffic." . ------- Deputy TEGG — said he did not desire to o ffer opposition to the report of the engineer, but at the same time he thought the expression of opinion on the part of the inhabitants of the locality was entitled to som e consideration at the hands of the Court. Every shopkeeper in the Poultry had, he be lieved, signed the memorial which had been presented, in which they set forth the disadvantages and inconvenience arising from the iron pavement, and he thought that their request to have it removed ought to have some weight. After some conversation, it was decided to allow the sub ject to stand over for the present. The City Chamberlain, Mr. Benjamin Scott, who is the treasurer to the commissioners, was stated to have in hand on the sewers rate £11,636 2s. 3id., whilst there had boon overdrawn the sum of £1,863 19s. 9d. on the consolidated rate, and £2,871 ls. 6id, on th e me t ropo li s ma i n d ra i nage rate. The commissioners, after disposing of some further busi ness, adjourned. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE—This day.
