Th e commercial public did not gene rally expect a change, and no surprise has been evoked at the protracted maintenance of the quota tion ; but a reduction in the interest of trade is nevertheless desired, and the time is not considered far distant when an amelioration can with clue pro priety be conceded. Th e restrictions which so high rate of discount impose upon business have neces sitated a great curtailment of operations, and the demand for accommodation upon mercantile paper is therefore comparatively small. The quotations of the brokers remain firm at 8 per cent, for the best short-dated bills. At the Bank of England yesterday there ws,s an influx of £40,000 in bar gold. The general meeting of the St. James's Hotel Company will be held on Saturday next, when the usual dividend of 10 per cent. will be recommended. The report of the directors of the London and Suburban Land and Building Company has been is sued prior to the meeting of shareholders on the 2d of August. The dividend and bonus proposed i s at the rate of 15 per cent. per annum, with a l arge balance of profit to he carried forward.

If you think these acts are to be done with impunity you are mistaken. You will go to prison for two months with hard labour. . George Bromage was charged with disorderly conduct and throwing stones. Sergeant Isaacson, 2 D, saw tho prisoner with about 40 lads and mennearsome trees on fire. As the policy went up to disperse them, he saw prisoner and others stone throw ing. Ile then took the prisoner into custody. The prisoner denied having thrown a stone, or taken any part in the stone throwing, and called a witness (Den nis Leary), who said that while with the prisoner and some others talking to a man who had been injured the pre vious night by the police the constable rushed up and took the prisoner into custody, the prisoner never having thrown a stone, and having his hands in his pocket at the The prisoner's brother was called by him, and he swore that the prisoner never threw any stones. Mr. Knox called the sergeant, and, in answer to ques tions put by Mr. Knox, the sergeant said he was positive the prisoner threw stones. The prisoner said the constable had not told the truth. Mr. Knox said if that was the case the constable could be indicted for perjury. He should fine tie prisoner 40s. or a month. Specks, 121 D, was inside the Marble-arch about five yesterday evening, and at that time a large section of police was marching out of the park. Prisoner said, " There goes the last of the butchers—now's your time." A female was detained by the police, and prisoner cried out, "Here, the police butchers have got a female here.' At the time he was surrounded by a number of boyS, some of whom had stones in their hands. Prisoner called out, "Now's your time," and took his hand out of his pocket and held it up, and he thought prisoner had a stone in his hand, but he had not. On taking the prisoner into cus tody he said that he was very sorry. In answer to the charge the prisoner said he never intended to throw stones, that ho was rather excited, and perhaps he said too much. The prisoner said he was a respectable mechani&` Mr. Knox said he could see that, and that made him the more surprised to see him where he was. The prisoner said he saw constables knocking a man about, and he said " What a shame ;" and afterwards, at the Marble Arch, seeing a woman in custody, he said, " Here's a woman in custody," and he was then locked up. As for making use of the bad word alleged, he did not do so, and never made use of a profane word. The constable must have been mistaken. Mr. Knox was glad to hear what the prisoner said, as it was so different to what he had heard from the persons he had had before him, and he wished to ask him if he did not think what had occurred of late a disgrace to London. The prisoner said he did. Mr. Knox said he was glad to hear a person of the pri soner's description saying so. If decent mechanics would keep out of the place, and leave the police and the ruffians to settle the matter, there would soon be an end of it. It was on such men as the prisoner, decent mechanics, who worked for their living, that they relied for the preservation of the peace of the town, and who were as much interested in its preservation as any one. He had been dealing with cases of idle boys who had been doing all sorts of damage and splitting persons' heads open as ordinary police cases, but if the matter went on, and there were more of them, the end of it would be that they would be sent down to the sessions in batches, where they would get six months or much heavier sentences. As he believed the prisoner to be a person of a very different class to those he had had be fore him he would deal leniently with him, and should order him to enter into a surety of £lO to be of good behaviour. Margaret Stocker was charged with assault. Windall, 217 A, saw the prisoner at the Marble Arch, and as she was disorderly he requested her to go away. She refused, and struck him in the face. Earl, 157 A, said the prisoner, while he was taking Watts into custody, followed, inciting the crowd by say ing, "Look at the fellows; why don't you take him away from them ?" This caused a large mob, and he had to draw his truncheon. She told the people to throw stones at the police. The prisoner was very violent. Mr. Knox—Was the prisoner used roughly ? Constable—No, sir. Mr. Rogers appeared for the prisoner, instructed by the Reform League, and pleaded in mitigation of punishment. Mr. Knox—This is the first woman I have had before me. Did they take any part in the matter ? Inspector Green, A Division, said they did, and that there were large numbers of them in the park each day. Mr. Knox said he should have thought women would have exercised their influence with their husbands and brothers to keep them away from the park. Mr. Knox said he would not under the circumstances deal heavily with the prisoner; she will have to pay 10s, or 7 days. Alfred Byot was charged with throwing stones and assaulting Wyatt, 364 A. Wyatt said the prisoner threw a stone, and on taking him into custody he kicked him. Head, 201 .1), went to the assistance of Wyatt and saw prisoner kicking Wyatt. In answer to Mr. Rogers, who appeared for the prisoner, the constable said he only saw one stone thrown. The prisoner was not very violent. Mr. Rogers called Mr. Jordan, a cigar merchant, who said he was in the park yesterday to see what destruction had taken place. 'Saw prisoner in custody o f three con stables, and one of them behind, 364 A, kick e d t h e prisoner. He asked the constable his name, and he said "Be off, or I'll lock you up," and not wishing to be locked up he went away. 364 A denied kicking the prisoner. Mr. Knox supposed there was great confusion. Mr. Jordan—Sir ; there was. Mr. Knox said he was afraid the prisoner threw the stone. He would ask the prisoner to see what had been done. A parcel of blackguardly ruffians had thrown stones and done immense damage, and disturbed the peace of the town. He would take into consideration the little rough treat ment he might have received in being taken into custody. Ho would not do as he had done in some cases, merely send the prisoner to prison without the option of pay ing a fine, but he would have to pay 40s. or a month for the stone throwing, and a fine of £5 or a month for the as sault on the constable. James Costello was charged with throwing stones. Chorley, 392 A, proved seeing the prisoner throw stones at two constables. A woman at the back of the court said the prisoner was silly. Mr. Knox said prisoner had sense enough to go into the park and throw stones at the constables. He will have to pay 40s. or a month ANOIIIER STATUE OF PRINCE ALBERT. —.

THE RIOTS IN HYDE PARK.-THE LAST OF THE ARRESTS. MARLBOROUGH-STREET-(THIS DAY). Joseph Brown was charged with stone-throwing in Hyde Park. Inspector Green, A division, was in Hyde Park yester day afternoon, and saw the prisoner throwing stones at the police. The prisoner was seized by a gentleman (the Hon. Arthur Annesley), and handed over to the police. The Hon. Arthur Annesley, of 15; Victoria-square, Grosvenor-place, was in Hyde Park, and saw the prisoner throw a stone at the police. He seized the prisoner and handed him over to the police. The prisoner said he had been ill-treated by the police and struck on the head. Mr. Knox inquired hotv the prisoner's head was injured? The Hon. Arthur Annesley said the prisoner kicked him, and he struck the prisoner with his stick. Henry Reeve, 387 A, saw the stone thrown by the pri soner, and it was meant for him (the constable). It missed him, and he picked it up. (The constable produced the stone.) Mr. Knox said throwing stones was a most unmanly and brutal thing, and it was a mercy that several of the Police had not lost their lives. Ho only wished that the public had had the manliness to do what Capt. Annesley had done, and he considered the public were indebted to him. The prisoner would have to pay 40s. or a month. John Hicks, a boy, was charged with stone throwing. Sergeant Isaacson, 2 D, was in the park yesterday after noon. As the police were retiring some trees were set on fire, and there was some stone throwing. He saw the pri soner throw a stone, and took him into custody, and found a large stone in his pocket. Prisoner denied throwing a stone or having one in his pocket. Mr. Knox said if the prisoner was roughly handled amongst a crowd of such persons as had assembled in the park, it was no more than he might have expected. lie should fine the prisoner 40s. or a month. John Watts was charged with stone throwing. Lane, 158 C, saw the prisoner throw three stones. Mr. Knox said he wondered that decent people in the park, who saw stone throwing, did not themselves take the persons doing it into custody. Earl, 157 A, saw tho prisoner throw some stones and then run away. Ile pursued the prisoner some di s t ance and took him into custody. On doing so he said, " Don't strike me." Mr. Knox—Had you done so ? Constable—No, sir. Mr. Knox fined the prisoner 40s. or a month. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.---This Day. TEE ATLANTIC CABLE.

A WARNiso To DRUNKARDS.—Catherine Donovan and William Pettigrew were brought before Mr. Woolrych, charged with being drunk and disorderly last night in High-street, Wapping. Charles Francis, policeman, stated that he was returning from duty after seven o'clock last night, and saw Petti grew (a soldier in the Royal Artillery), lying upon the ground helplessly drunk, and with his uniform torn. He raised him from the ground, and was leading him to the station, when the female came up and spat in his face. She abused him, and attempted to strike him. He then took her into custody. The soldier came from Netley Hospital on Tuesday with a comrade, and while drunk he was rob bed of his boots and money, and the boots he now had on were new ones, and he was likely to lose them also if he did not keep sober. The soldier's comrade, with whom he was drinking, was drowned, and his body was found this morning on the hard near New Crane Stores, Shadwell, by Inspector Taylor of the Thames police. The female prisoner said she always lost her senses when she had the dhrop taken. Mr. Woolrych —Most people do lose their senses when they become intoxicated. Your conduct was very offen sive. Pettigrew said he had been drinking with his comrade, who was missing. Mr. Woolrych—Yes, he is drowned. Pettigrew am sorry for that, Sir. I will keep sober, your worship. Mr. Woolrych—The fate of your unfortunate comrade ought to be a warning to you. He has been serving his country in the Cape of Good Hope and other places, and when he comes home from the Cape he gets drunk and is drowned. Take warning by his fate. You are discharged. The woman Donovan is fined 55., and in default of pay ment a week's imprisonment. Olympic Theatre. Actors and Amateurs having fraternised, the doors of this house were thrown open on Tuesday, the 24th inst., and a Soirée Dramatique given to upwards of 500 fashionables, who were fortunate enough to receive cards of invitation. The pieces selected were—" To Parents and Guardians," " Still Waters Run Deep," and "The Rough Dia mond." Mr. Horace Wigan sustained the role of Monsieur Tourbillon, the French usher, in the first piece, and, we need scarcely say, played the part to perfection. The character of Waddilove was undertaken by Mr. P. Head, an amateur who managed to keep the house convulsed with laughter by his great comic humour. Miss E. Warren was the Bob Nettles, and Miss Alice Austin the Virginie. In " Still Waters Run Deep" Mr. P. Morton was the John Mildmay, and displayed a very fine concep tion of the Lancashire lad, whilst his father-in-law, the eccentric Mr. Potter, was played by Mr. Leinster. The acting of this gentleman in the scene, where he is waiting to receive the company, and takes up a Bradshaw to pass away the time, was excellent. Mr. Montague was a capital Hawkesley ; Miss Lydia Foote made the most of Mrs. Mildmay, while Mrs. St. Henry was quite at home in Mrs. Stern hold. The piece throughout was exceedingly well played, and really which were actors and which were amateurs was a difficult task for the unini tiated to discover. In " The Rough Diamond" the Margery of Miss Farren, and Cousin Joe of Mr. F. Head, appeared to delight the audience. The band, which was entirely composed of amateurs. was entirely under the direction of Mr. Wilhelm Vandervell, who is already known to the public as a composer of many pleasing melodies, played a charming collection of music between the acts. Every credit is due to the promoters of this Dra matic Union for the manner in which they carried out the entertainment. Nothing appeared to have been forgotten that might have added to the enjoy. ment of the visitors. In the saloon champagne ices, and every description of refreshment were al their disposal.

The court-martial at the Royal Barracks re sumed its sittings yesterday. The trial of Lance- Corporal 11I'Clean having been concluded, Private Thomas Kerry was arranged for the same offence-- namely, having harboured Corporal Thos. Cham bers, a deserter, and an alleged Fenian. Private Abraham and Private Foley gave evidence against him, after which he was removed, and the Court cleared. Private Connell was then placed on his trial on the same charge. The same witnesses were examined in this case. Colonel Redmond gave the prisoner an indifferent character. He had no coun sel, but in his defence he denied the charge, stating that he had just come out of hospital at the time of arrest, that he was in Pilsworth publichouse by ac cident, and that he did not know Chambers was a deserter. He said that Abraham had sworn falsely, and he wished to procure evidence as to the charac ter of that witness. The Court was then adjourned to allow time to get from the Curragh Camp docu ments to which the prisoner appealed. The Commission for the King's County was opened at Tullamore yesterday by Chief Justice Whiteside. The grand jury having been recalled and resworn, his lordship addressed them as follows : "Mr. Foreman and Gentlemen of the Grand Jury, —lt is my duty to inform you that I have been summoned to complete the labours of this circuit already commenced by my venerable predecessor ; but I am happy to be able to assure you that his re tirement has not been occasioned by indisposition, but by his desire to promote the public good. I feel some difficulty in following in the footsteps of so distinguished a judge. He began his professional career when there were many great men at the Irish bar, and he soon became conspicuous for the preci sion of his judgment, the depth of his arguments, and the solidity of his understanding. He preserved for us the decisions of one of the most accomplished and philosophical jurists that ever held the Great Seal in this kingdom. His temper on the Bench, I may say, was most serene, his knowledge was pro found, and the weight of his character carried with it a respect he was never called on to enforce. He has left not merely the name of a great judge, he has left the example of one whose virtues endeared him to his friends, and whose life was without a stain. Gentlemen, this is not a personal subject I have to deal with. The learning and independence of a judge are essential for the impartial administra tion of justice, and are conducive to the interests of the whole community. Gentlemen of the jury, I have no doubt my labours here will be assisted by your vigilance and attention, and by that which has never been denied to any judge—the aid of a highly educated and enlightened bar." Mr. Justice O'Hagan in opening the assizes for the county of Antrim at Belfast yesterday con gratulated the grand jury on the condition of the county and of the great town in which they were assembled, remarking that he never went there without new amazement at the evidence of its mar vellous prosperity and its unexampled progress. Referring to the lightness of the calendar, his Lord ship said : " This is a very happy state of things, and espe cially so when we remember that so recently in the town in which we are at this moment—the capital of your province, and in many respects the indus trial capital of Ireland—society was convulsed by civil strife, and the people were disgraced by con tinuous and scandalous outrage. All that appears to have passed away, through the energy, of your magistracy and the vigilance of your police, who, I believe, are guided by a very a bl e and eff i c i ent . _ officer. And I trust and hope —and lam sure you will join with me—that such a state of things may long continue." MARKETS.---This Day. ~--~ METROPOLITAN CATTLE.

IMPERIAL PARLIAXENT HOUSE OF COMAIONS—THIS DAP. The SPEAKER took the Chair at 12 o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The Lords Amendments to the North Eastern Railway (Leeds and Wetherby Branch) Bill were considered and agreed to, and the bill was read a third time and passed. The following bills with amendments were considered, and ordered for third reading :—Bute Docks, Cardiff;; Car marthen and Cardigan Railway, Midland Railway (Branches, &c.), North Metropolitan Railway, "Weariale and Shildon District Water Bill. The following bills were read a third time and passe'a --East India Irrigation and Canal, Madras Irrigation and Canal, Rawson's Estate, and Sutherland- Walker's TAstate. On the motion of Mr. C. FORS TER„ the order for the second reading of the Dagenham Dock Railways Bill was discharged, and the bill was withdrawn. THE GOVERNMENT DOCKYARDS. On the motion for going into committee of supply 011 the Naval Supplementary Estimates, Mr. SEELY called the attention of the House to the general administration and to the accounts of her .Majesty's dockards, and the two returns, Nos. 465 and 465 1, dated the 4th day of July, 1865, and moved the following reso lutions :—" 1. That the course pursued in paving the road ways, workshops, and other places in the dockyards with iron ballast was inexpedient. 2. That anchors are pro vided for the use of her Majesty's navy without a due re gard to economy. 3. That the manner in which the affairs of the dockards have been managed in these and other re spects renders it desirable that the superintendents should be possessed of a practical knowledge of the business car ried on therein, and that it is also desirable that their term of office should not be limited to a term of 5 years." The kon, member then entered into details to prove that the expen diture on the vessels constructed and repaired in the Go vernment dockyards was very extravagant. That state of things was not denied by the late Admiralty authorities but they promised to remedy it ; yet he did not see any dis position on their part while in office to make any improve ments in the existing system. Ho thought that there should be something on the face of Government accounts to show exactly the financial position in which the Government works were, which desideratum was not supplied under the present system. He trusted that, as there was a transfer of authority on the part of the Admiralty, that the present First Lord of that important department of the public service (Sir J. Faking-- ton) would introduce those alterations in the accounts which would represent the actual position of the naval Governments works, and which had been adopted in a sister department of the public service. He instituted a comparison between the manner in which Governfnont works were carried out in the dockyards and by indi vidual enterprise, which was much in favour of th e latter both as to economy and efficiency. He then described the inaccuracies in which the military accounts were kept, which exhibited clearly the position in which that branch of the public service was placed, and he could not understand why a similar system of accounts should not be introduced in the naval department of the public ser- F v i r c e e d . e r ke Williamr efer r ed t h o a t d he fact ct c e t e h s a t t r e a c t e v d e s i s e e 1 e called t t h h e e h t Government anh dockyardsed b ceel laste built b y u ea t r atie a a n excessprivat private f £l4 7 ,000 more dockyard.

Mr. CHEETHAM moved the insertion of the following clause :—"No person or persons shall be assessed or rated or be liable to pay to any county, borough, parochial, or other local rates or cesses in respect of any land, houses, or buildings, or parts thereof, belonging to any public library or museum established under any of the said acts, and occupied by it for the transaction of its business and for carrying into effect its purposes." After some discussion the house divided— For the clause 54 Against it lO Majority —44 The bill then went through committee. LANDLORD AND TENANT (IRELAND) BILL. The order for the second reading of this bill was dis charged, and the bill was accordingly withdrawn. SEA COAST AND FISHERIES (IRELAND) BILL. Mr. BLAKE moved the second reading of this bill. Lord NAAS said that the subject was one of great im portance, and that it was proposed by the Government to bring in a bill on the subject next Session. The order for the second reading was discharged. •""'" FINSBURY ESTATE BILL. On the motion of Mr. AYRTON this bill was with drawn. CHARITABLE DONATIONS AND BEQUESTS (IRELAND) BILL. The order for the second reading of this bill, the object of which is to create a public board paid out of the Con solidated Fund for the purpose of controlling charitable donations and bequests in Ireland, was also withdrawn, after some observations from Mr. Blake, Mr. Synan, Mr. Pim, Mr. M'Laren, and Lord Naas, the latter of whom promised a bill on the subject if there. was a fair prospect of such a measure being carried. The committee on the Church Rate Abolition bill (Mr. Ilardcastle), and the order for the second reading of the Church Rate Commutation (No. 2) bill (Mr. Newdegate) were postponed till Wednesday next. TENURE AND IMPROVEMENT OF LAND (IRELAND) BILL On the order for ihe adjourned debate on this bill, Mr. C. FORTESCUE moved that the order for the second reading of the bill be discharged. In defending the principle of the measure, he said it was founded on this idea, that the law of Ireland should be put upon a wise and just basis, securing in the absence of a special contract to the con trary the fair rights of the tenant. That was an idea which he thought wiser and more practicable, certainly different from former bills, and he maintained that th e reso l u ti on o f his noble friend (Lord Naas), applying rightly as it did to former bills, including the bill of the Government of which the noble lord was h member, and the bill of Sir Robert Peel, did not meet the principle or the idea which lay at the root of the present bill. The bill asked whether the tenant should not be put on a proper footing, at the same time leaving to the individuals concerned the right to make any special contract. The amendment of his noble friend (Lord Naas) was that compensation to tenants should be made on those improvements only which were made with the consent of the landlord. That answer was no an swer to the bill of the late Government, the principle of which he maintained was the most practicable and most efficient which had yet been brought under the notice of the house. Although they withdrew the bill, they were con fident that it was founded on wisdom and justice, and that some such bill must be introduced if the relations of England and Ireland were to be maintained. (Hear, hear.) They reserved the right to introduce the bill next session. Certainly the matter would IN considered at the proper time, but their action would depend mainly on the course taken by the Government. Lord NAAS defended the principle of withholding compensation for improvements in respect of which the consent of the landlords had not been obtained, and ex pressed a hope that a settlement of the question would be arrived at. Mr. GLADSTONE was glad that the noble lord had this serve subject. when he did not s ee hi s way Lord NAAS denied having stated th a t h e did not see his t s o po in k t e r n od w u i ce th a so bi m ll ue on h way to introduce a bill. Mr. GLADSTONE said he was glad that he had mis taken the noble lord, and that he did see his way to in troduce a bill on the subject. That being so, he could not reconcile the speech of the noble lord. However, if it was his intention to bring in a bill, it was his duty, as Chief Secretary for Ireland, to state the principle on which it would be founded, but that the noble lord had not done. Mr. HENLEY said he was one of those who wished to see the law of England and Ireland assimilated. Mr. CLIVE hoped if the noble lord opposite (Lord Naas) introduced a bill next year he would not sanction compen sation for improvements made without the sanction of the landlord. He maintained that the relation between land lord and tenant was in a satisfactory condition. The discussion was continued till a quarter to six, When the order was discharged. po T ne h d e t s i e u co to t r o e rr ad o i w ng of the Inns of Court Bill was post - The second reading of the Public Schools Bill was post poned till Tuesday. rAeamdenadmtheinrtd B ti i rme n w an a tl e Inland iteve l n r u e e lan ß d il ) A w e: The Tramways ( passed.

A J P CH Ap ANT int A E re cently absconded with £1,600, has been apprehended, but subsequently escaped, under the following circumstances. On Monday, three of his creditors, receiving information of 1 I T I I I ZLEr his whereabouts, after he had been absent for a year and 10 months, proceeded to Knaresbro'. There they found him in a field, making hay, and, after a good race, succeeded in securing him in a hedge. They brought him home to Guiseley, a distance of more than twenty miles, hav ing arrived there about five o'clock on Tuesday morn ing. Be asked to be allowed to call and see his family and wash himself. This favour his captors granted, and two of them went to inform some other creditors, leaving him in charge of the third merchant. Barrett went into the kitchen, professedly to wash himself, but at once availed himself of the opportunity, and succeeded in escaping through the back door, thus again eluding his creditors, and leaving behind him what consolation they could gather from having caught him and lost him again immediately. _ _ . BUILDING LAND ROUND LONDON.—Owing to the clearances effected by the metropolitan railways, the Conservative Land Society acquired a valuable build ing property, called the West London Estate, close to the station on the West London Railway, with extensive frontage to the New Richmond-road, North-end, Fulham, thus enabling the tenants of the houses to be erected on the land to communicate promptly and cheaply with all parts of London on both sides of the Thames. As this estate was bought with a view to accommodate specially the middle and working classes dislodged by the new linos of railway, there was more t han ordinar y interest attached to the allotment onthe 25th inst., and the sale of the build ing plots was one of the largest e v er m ade by the society. P ar ti cu lar attention has been paid to the opening of new roads and to the drainage in laying out the land. OLE.
