DIONEYMARKET AN COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE, TWELVE O'CLOCK. No alteration has been made this morning in the Bank of England rate of discount. A reduction of tz per cent . was generally expected, although it was flown that the expenditure of the country for agricultural purposes was large, and that the coin Withdrawn on this account would somewhat dimi nish the bullion reserves. The rate out of doors r emains at 31 and 34 per cent. for the best bills. Messrs. J. and Henry Schroder, agents for the , ' III Y of Havana and Mantauzas Railroad, have finds subscriptions for a loan of £400,000, in "eilds of £lOO each, to be issued at £9O, and bear- I ng interest at 7 per cent. The money is required for the purchase of the Coliseo Railroad, which runs f or the purchase of the Coliseo Railroad, which runs I'oni Matanzas to Bemba, a distance of 35 miles, and forms a direct junction with the Havana and Matanzas Railroad. The new line is mortgaged for the due payment of the interest and the opera tion for the sinking fund. The Havana and Matanzas Company also hypothecate their line, Which, however, has some prior claims. The directors of the Mauritius Land Credit and Agency Company have issued their report for pre sentation at the half-yearly meeting of the share iaelders. It appears that a net profit of £3,502 has u een made, and it is recommended to declare a dividend of 10 per cent., free of income-tax, and ca rry £471 to the credit of preliminary expenses. Two O'CLOCK. At the Paris Bourse this morning, according to Reuter's telegram, the 3 per Cent. Itentes were 69f• 15c. Heavy. Quotations for English Stocks have been well 811 13 ported to-day, although no improvement has taken place. The favourable weather, and the ten dency of monetary affairs exercise a satisfactory influence on prices. Consols for money are 89i 90 and for the account, 90* 1. The New Threes and Reduced Annuities are 881 1, ex div. ; India 5 per Cents., 105* 1; Bank of England Stock, 248. Foreign Stocks generally remain steady. Turkish Consolides are 491; Mexican, 241 1 ; the New Loan, 231 ; Greek, 20/ 21 ; Spanish Passive, 30 1; the Certificates, 14415 ; Italian, 644 65 ; and the Confederate Loan, 6* 71. In the Railway Share Market there has been rather less animation, and prices in several in stances have shown a slight depression. Great •"-astern, North Western, and South Eastern have each declined 1 ; Manchester, Sheffield, and Lin -Lincoln, Metropolitan, and Midland each 4 ; and Lancashire and Yorkshire, 1. American Securities continue firm. United S tates' Government 5-20 Bonds, 681 1 ; Erie Shares, 54 1 ; and Illinois, 78/ 91. The Foreign and Coionial lines are, in one or two lastances, rather firmer. Dutch Rhenish have tvd lranced and East Indian I. Bank and Miscellaneous Shares are quiet. Stan dard of British South Africa, however, has im- Proved to 16 ; and London and South African to 10 1 ; and Credit Foncier and Motilier of England to 8/ 9.

No FINES FOR ASSAULTS ON THE POLICE.—David Parish, a tall and strong man, was brought before Mr. Paget, charged with assaulting James Dix, apolice-constable, No. 129 H. This morning at an early hour the prisoner was drunk and disorderly in Great Alie-street, Whitechapel. The constable requested the prisoner to move on, which he refused to do, and the policeman repeated his request. The prisoner made use of foul language, and the policeman put his hand upon him, and was immediately struck by the prisoner on the head. The blow was described by a wit ness named Sutton as a very full one, and Dix and Parish both fell. The prisoner said he was carman to a horse-slaughterer, and went into the country yesterday for a horse. He got rather too much drink. Mr. Paget—Yes. Nearly all the offences committed are under the influence of strong drinks. You are sentenced to 14 days' imprisonment and hard labour. The Prisoner—Pray, sir, make it a fine, and I will pay it. . Mr. Paget—No, certainly. I never inflict fines for violent assaults on the police. The constables have diffi cult duties to perform, and when they have been in the right and violence is committed I have always ordered imprisonment without tho option of paying fines. The Prisoner—l shall lose my situation if lam sent to prison. Mr. Paget—l will not alter my sentence. DARING ROBBERY ON BOARD SHlP.—Henry Glover, a man about 25 years of age, was brought before Mr. Paget, charged with stealing a silver watch. Hans Berg said he was master of a Norwegian ship. At seven o'clock this morning he was lying down in his berth in the cabin and saw a hand come over his head and take his watch, to which a gold chain was attached. He thought it was the steward of the vessel who wanted to know the time of day, and took no notice at first, but on turning round and seeing a man with a grey coat on who was not one of his crow leaving the cabin, he jumped out of bed, called out " Stop thief," and ascended to the deck. He saw the prisoner running and get over the rail of the ship on to another, and from there to the quay. The mate of the ship followed him, seized him, and brought him back. The prisoner got away from the mate, but was caught again. The prisoner struggled, and his grey coat was torn right off. The mate of the Norwegian confirmed the latter part of the captain's statement. Richard Smith, a constable, said the prisoner was a thief, and was brought to him at the import gate of the West India Dock. Mr. Paget—What has become of the watch and gold chain ? Captain Berg—The watch and chain were thrown into the dock. The prisoner said he was innocent, he would take his Bible oath of it. Police-sergeant Briden, 4 K, said the prisoLor had been convicted. Mr. Paget committed the prisoner for trial, MARKETS—This Day. METROPOLITAN CATTLE. The supply of English beasts on sale at our markets to day was limited ; but that of foreign was tolerably large. The trade for good and prime beasts ruled firm, at fully late rates, the top price being 5s 6d per 81bs ; otherwise the beef trade was in a sluggish state, at barely late rates. The market was fairly supplied with sheep, for which the trade ruled quiet, but at quite previous quotations. The general top figure was 6s. Bd. per 81bs. Calves were a fair demand, at Monday's currency. The pork trade was steady and prices ruled firm. We understand that a cargo of foreign beasts, numbering about 300 head, was seized at the wharf this morning, some of the animals being in a dis eased state.

EXECUTION IN IRELAND.—TULLAMORE, Wed nesday.—King was executed for the murder of Lieutenant Clutterbuck at halt-past seven this morning. He confessed his guilt and went to the gallows firmly. He struggled for five minutes, and apparently died in great agony. THE MOTHERS OF ILLEGITIMATE CHILDREN.— Who are the mothers of these little ones ? Let us see. According to the last census there were in England and Wales about 1,000,000 female servants, and nearly 300,000 dressmakers ; and though we would rather not tell the truth, yet duty compels us to confess that it is in this large class that the seducer finds his most easy prey. Most women desire to get married; it is their natural, as it is a most honourable estate ; and here we have 1,300,000.gir1s of a marriageable age exposed to the snares of the human, or rather inhuman, fowler. The wonder is not that they are here and there seduced, but that the chastity of the class is so generally preserved. But let one of the frail ones yield to the allurements of the tempter ; let her listen to the voice of the false charmer; let her become a mother, and what is her condition ? Helpless is not the word, nor hopeless either ; she finds herself cruelly stabbed and wounded in her tenderest feelings. Her honour has been outraged; her dearest affections blasted. She has become the victim of treachery and voluptuousness where she fondly hoped to be the object of pure and individual love. She is abandoned to be pointed at by the finger of scorn, to be cast out from every avenue of honest industry; and in the frenzy of her anguish is it astounding that she curses the offspring that thus rouses society against her, and in a moment of madness becomes an infanticide ? Society proclaims war against her, and, overweighted with a burthen too heavy to bear, she has to fight the battle— and that battle, too, alone. It is scarcely marvellous, then, that her agony should triumph over her natural instincts, and that she should make away with the burthen and the stain together.—Once a Week. M. Stubeurauch, professor of law at the Uni versity of Vienna, and a member of the municipal council of that city, has committed suicide with his wife, in consequence of the discovery of a deficit of 21,000 florins (52,500 f.) in the funds of the Savings Bank, of which ho was director. His second son has disappeared from Vienna. E SUN, LONOOI\, THMSDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 7, 1865. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. OBTAINING GOODS BY FALSE PRETENCES.—Thos. Edward Jovett, described as an agent, of No. 7, James • street, Covent-garden, was brought before Mr. Knox on a warrant, by Dawson, 301 A, charged with obtaining furniture of the value of £l6 10s. from Mr. John Nash, upholsterer, of No. 37, Prince's-street, Leicester-square, by false and fraudulent pretences, with intent to defraud him of the same. Mr. Edward Dillon Lewis, of Great Marlborough-street, appeared for the prosecution, said the prisoner was charged with obtaining goods from Nash by false and fraudulent pretences—the false pretences being twofold—the first re presentation made by the prisoner being that he was sole agent to Mr. Thompson, of the Amber Mustard Mills, Derby, and the second that he had been recommended to Mr. Nash by ono of Mr. Nash's customers, both of which representations were entirely without founda tion. As the prisoner was only taken into custody last night, he was not prepared with all the witnesses, and would therefore have to ask for a short remand. Mr. Nash said that on the 14th of August the prisoner called upon him, and, presenting a card, said he was the sole agent to Mr. Thompson, of the mustard mills, Derby ; that the agency produced him £5OO a year, and he hoped shortly it would amount to £l,OOO. He also stated that he had been recommended by Mr. Decesares, of Bermond sey, that person being one of his (Mr. Nash's) customers. He supplied the prisoner with furniture to the amount of £l6 10s., consisting of a mahogany desk, table, and other articles, parting with the goods on the faith of the pri soner's representations that he was the agent to the Mus tard Mills, and recommended by Mr. Decesares, and hav ing since ascertained that the representations were untrue, he applied for a warrant. Henry Dawson, 301 A, proved taking the prisoner into custody in a publichouse near Covent-Garden. On telling him the charge, he said he never intended to deprive Mr. Nash of his property, and he afterwards asked Mr. Nash to forego the prosecution, and said he would find the things where they were sent to, in Villiers-street. In answer to Mr. Knox, Dawson said the goods were in Villiers-street. There was also a case against the prisoner for obtaining goods from Messrs. Hampton and Russell, upholsterers, Leicester-square. Mr. Knox remanded the prisoner, and refused to admit him to bail. -- - 1,13) THE AUTUMN HANDICAPS. NEWMARKET SECOND OCTOBER MEETING. TUESDAY.

TRULY RURAL. (From Punch) IN A COTTAGE NEAR A WASPS' NEST. VOTES BY A DISGUSTED VISITOR FROM LONDON. Moking.—The early bee on my dressing-table. Suicide of earwig in my bath. Have to shake all my clothes to see that nothing has crawled in during the night. Feel in the toes of my slippers with the tongs. Once knew a man who found a wasp in the toe of his slipper. Repeat proses! with boots. _ Breakfast Time.—First appearance of wasps. Desultory feeding in consequence. Everything on the table, including napkins, becomes a defensive weapon against the wasps. Some are knocked down. Uncertainty as to their being killed. They crawl and sting. Once knew a man who was stung through his stockings by a crawling wasp. Everyone sits like a tailor or Turk on his chair. Ladies nervous. Pocket-handkerchiefs used for hitting at wasps. Knew a man once who got a wasp in his pocket-handkerchief, and it crept up his nose. Forget what became of him. Between Breakfast and Lunch. wasps on the gra ss . Under the trees. In the sun, in the shade. Any place on the grass free from wasps is occupied by ants, or bumble bees. They say bumble bees don't sting. I tried one. Didn't it. Sit by side of murmuring brook. Dragon-flies, fearful-looking creatures that come at you with a whirring noise. They say they don't sting.

They ran thus to the T.Y.C. post, when Lady Bohun joined Principal, and raced with him to the distance, where she obtained a slight lead. At the enclo sure General Hess, ridden with great patience, was brought to the front, and, biding his time, Captain Little waited until within a stride or two of the chair, and won a fine race by a head.

These positions were retained to the distanceovhere the gelding upon sufferance got to the favourite's quarters, who as they neared the stand shook him off, and won with hands down in a canter by a couple of lengths.

Here she was beaten, and the favourite and Nu joined Vixen. A good race home then ensued. Exchequer, who appeared to have the best of it at the stand, cut it a few strides from the chair, and was beaten cleverly by a bead, but defeated Nu by a couple of lengths for second ; half a length separated the latter from Side wind.

It is altogether above reason ; it is a holy passion, in which all others are absorbed and lost. It is a sacred flame on the altar of the heart, which is never quenched. That it does not require reason to feed it and keep it alive is witnessed in the in stinctive maternal love which pervades all animal nature. Every one must have instinctively felt the aptness of the Scriptural illustration of maternal solicitude, which likens a great love to a hen, which gathers her chickens under her wing. The hen's maternal care, so patient, so un selfish, is a miniature replica of Nature's greatest work. No doubt, it is carried on and on ad infinitum, until we want a microscope to see it. There are myriads of anxious mothers in a leaf; whose destiny is to live for a single day and then die for ever ; as there are millions of anxious mothers in the human family whose span of life is three score years and ten, with a glorious eternity lying beyond. The mother is the mainspring of all nature, the fountain of all pure love—the first likeness on earth of God himself. Man did not deserve to have the first entry into the gar den of Eden. Burns, with his great sympathetic soul, seems to have felt this when he sang of Dame Nature, " Her 'prentice han' She tried on man, And then she made the lasses, 0 I' —Dickens's " All the Year Round."

Meeting this Day. The usual half-yearly general meeting of this company was held at the terminus, Paddington, this day, Mr. R. Potter, chairman, presiding. After the usual preliminaries, The CHAIRMAN moved the adoption of the report and statement of accounts, which having been published were taken as read. He said that he regretted he could not offer the shareholders a larger dividend for the half year than 2 per cent. ; notwithstanding that there had been an increase in the receipts of £45,000 as compared with the corresponding period of 1864. That increase was derived from 45 additional miles of railway, and it was less than had been anticipated and provided for in the calculations that had been made in the early period of the year. Its not having reached their expectations was owing to the cessation of the civil war in America, by which there was a consider able falling off in one or two large parts of the trade passing over their line, particularly the coal trade, and there was also a general diminution in their northern mineral trade, especially between Birmingham and Staffordshire, chiefly in the months of May, June, and July. There had been an increase in the expenditure for maintenance of way as compared with last year, and he believed that relatively to other railway companies that expenditure was large. That expenditure amounted to £154,000. By the substitution of iron and masonry on these works for wood, there had been a cost of £llO,OOO incurred, but the advantages of that substitution had been admitted. He next drew attention to the locomotive expenditure, which was the same as the corresponding half-year of 1864, notwithstanding it was relatively large as compared with other companies. The increase on this head and others amounted to £50,000. In reference to the unfortunate accident on the Shrewsbury line which might cost the company £30,000 or £40,000, towards which £12,500 had been laid by, and out of the fund appropriated to accidents £4,700 would be applied. Endeavours had been made, which, he trusted, would prevent the recurrence of such accidents. The great increase that had taken place in their expenditure was caused by the making of branch lines. He was happy to state that, with regard to the permanent way and main line the branches were in a more satisfactory condition than he ever remembered before. He defended the selection of Oxford by the directors as the chief workshop for the construction of carriages and wagons, in preference to Abingdon, Reading, and other lace which had at theardbeenr smallness ecommend of theedH diecovlcelun, andddedby repeating ps his regret expressing his faith in the future prospefit . y . of the com pany. - . Mr. FENTON (deputy chairman) seconded the motion. Colonel LINDSAY, M.P., strongly condemned the selec tion of Oxford, and moved an amendment to the effect that before deciding on the subject it should be considered more fully. Sir C. RUSSELL, M.P., seconded the amendment. After some discussion the amendment was negatived and the original motion adopted. The meeting then adjourned. . England Return,.—Tl;lii Evening.

Sept. 7, 1865. The Price of Gold. The quotation of gold at Paris is about 1 per mille pm., and the short exchange on London is 25.221 per £1 sterling. 03 comparing these rates with the English Mint price of £3 17s. 104 d. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is nearly 2-ICths per cent. dearer in London than in Paris. By advicas from Hamburg the price of gold is 428 per mark and the short exchange on London is 13.71 per £1 sttrlin Standard gold at the English Mint price is, therefore, nearly 2-10ths per cent. dearer in London than in Hamburg. The e-ourse of exchange at New York on London tor bills at 60 days' sight is 109 per cent. At these rates there is no profit on the importation of go'd from the United States. PREPARATIONS OF STRYCHNINE, Mr. C. J. Cart a quantity women, tyof pre_ tar, coroner for West Kent, hel d an inquest yesterday on , t v h heo b< c ) o d l y nm of it F te r d an su ce ic s id S e ym b o y n s d w s, a a ll g o e w d in 6 g B, a m pared powder usually sold for killing rats, and known as B a ttle's Vermin Killing Powder," the ingredients of which contain a lar ge port i on of strychnine. The ev id ence showed that the d ecease d , who was addicted to ha bit s o f intemperance, left home on Sunday morning last and pur chased a 3d. packet of the above powder at a neighbouring chemist's, and on returning home mixed it in some liquid and drank it. The chemist at whose shop the poison was supposed to have been purchased said it was generally sold to persons who asked for it without any questions being put, and Dr. Cogan, who had been called to the deceased, said that a 3d. packet of the poison would contain a grain and a half of strychnine, and that the deceased must have suffered excruciating agony. The Coroner said it could never have been the intention of the Legislature that such a compound should not come within the Sale of Poisons Act. Verdict, " That the deceased committed suicide while labouring under temporary de.rangemeut." 4 1 I I I 204 10 100 100 100 'OSSEI all iO3 100 {lOO 2 100 100 190 100 100 1(0 100 100 2.1.0 2.14.6 3.4.0 2.7.0 2.13.6 9.10.6 601 all 1.1.0 40 7.8.3 8.13 4.18.0 go 4.3.0 37/ 4.2.0 2.8.0 7.1.6 10.6.7 18.18.91 30.17.6 3.12.81 1011 121 13 gii 241 6
