T4I-ONEY MARKET AN; COlVlrttlillteTAL INTELLIGENCIt, TWELVE O'CLOCK. A very good inquiry for discount acccommodation has prevailed in the open market. 'The rates remain at 2i 3 per cent. Telegrams from Vienna announce the suspension of the mercantile house of Messrs. J. G. Schuller and Co. The firm was old and very respectable, but its business is supposed to have declined. It is not thought that any of the loss will fall on this country. There was a withdrawal yesterday from the Bank of England of 10,000 sovereigns for Alexan dria. The dissentient allottees of shares in the Estates Investment Company are to hold a meeting on Thursday next. The prospectus has appeared of the General Estates Company, which proposes to obtain land in and near London, to create ground-rents, and make advances, &c., to contractors and others. This description of business is generally considered to be a very profitable one, and the directors are business men holding good positions in the commercial world. The capital is fixed at £250,000, but only half the amount is to be first issued in shares of £2O each. Two O'CLOCK. At the Paris Bourse this morning, according to Reuter's telegram, the 3 per Cent.

', Fin,sbury Election. Letter from the South. The nomination of two burgesses to M.:present the borough of Finsbury in Parliament took Pace to-day at Clerkenwell-green. The attendance of "free and in dependent" was very great, and consequently the proceed ings were of a very lively charactr,r. Mr. Cox was the first to make his appearance on tb..e hustings, and as his caval cade of carriages approached the scene of action it was welcomed by his party with loud cries of " Cox for ever." Mr. Torrens next 'nada his appearance, and met with a like cordial reception. Alderman Lusk and Mr. Phillips' wel come was more uproarious than the other candidates, but the great feature of the opening proceedings was the arrival of the " people's" candidate, Mr. Perfitt, who drove up to the hustings in a:yellow post chaise and four, with postillion to match, his supporters all wearing white hats. The writ having been read, The Returning officer came forward, and said he had called them together for the purpose of selecting two fit and proper persons for the great council of the nation, the House of Commons. He hoped they would give each gen tleman a patient hearing, and that both electors and non electors would aid him in quietly conducting the election. Mr. DENNIS Sai':t it gave him great pleasure in proposing to them their ol.d and tried member, William Cox, who was a thoroughgoing reformer. He could fearlessly point to his attends nce in the house during the session, and his vote wars always to be found on the side of the people and reform. (Loud cheers, and cries of " Gammon.") Mr. G. SHILLIBEER seconded the nomination of Mr. Cox. _ _ gation Mr. E. J. THOMPSON, proposed Mr. Alderman Lusk. (Great confusion.) He sought the high honour of repre senting the important borough of Finsbury in Parliament. He was a gentleman who gave his undivided attention to the interests of the borough, and therefore he confidently proposed him for the acceptance of the electors. (Uproar.) Mr. SURR seconded the nomination, Mr. TLDMARSEI proposed Mr. Phillips. He was a gentle man of the greatest energy, and if they elected him he would do honour to the borough. (Here a great deal of confusion and fighting was carried on in front of the hustings by the breaking of one of the barriers. The police triod to keep the crowd back, but for some time that was impossible, and one policemazi was knocked down, and, unfortunately, received such severe injuries that he had to be carried to the hospital. A. strong force of the constabulary was, however, soon brought to the spot, and as the confusion somewhat abated, Mr. GEORGE ROUTLEDGE came forward to second the nomination of Mr. Phillips. He said he was a thoroughly good man, and as such he confidently recommended him to the electors of Finsbury. (Cries of " Bravo, George.") Mr. Horwoon proposed and Mr. TYLER seconded Mr Torrens ; and Mr. LAKE proposed and Mr. G. HOLYOAKE seconded Mr. Perfitt amidst the most indescribable confusion. The Returning Officer having asked whether there was any other candidate to be proposed, and no response being made, he then called the candidates forward, and each ad -dressed the electors, but their eloquence was lost upon the electors, who seemed disinclined to hear anybody. How ever, each candidate occupied the post of honour for a few moments, during which, we presume, they reiterated the opinions they had been promulgating for the last three or four days. A show of hands was then called for, and was declared to be in favour of Cox and Perfitt. A poll was demanded on the part of the other candidates, POLICE INTELLIGENCE,—This Day. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. COWARDLY ASSAULT ON A FEMALE.-Stephen M'Carthy, a tailor, residing at 77, Berwick-street, Soho, appeared before Mr. Tyrwhitt to answer the complaint of Mrs. Gater, the wife of a tailor, of assaulting her. It appears that some ill-feeling existing between the defendant and the complainant's husband, he stopped her and asked her where her husband was, and then gave her a violent blow on the breast. The complainant was labour ing under a severe illness at the time, and it was much increased in consequence of the defendant's violence. The defendant said he had several witnesses to call, but they were not then in attendance. Mr. Tyrwhitt declined to adjourn the case again, it hav ing already been adjourned two or three times, and fined the defendant 20s. and costs. The following letter, from a Southern gentlemdu to a friend in Edinburgh, is interesting as showing the state of feeling in the South since its subju- Columbia, South Carolina, May 23, 1865. The blow was sudden and entirely unexpected. Matters had gradually culminated to that poiot that the surrender of General Lee necessitated the capitu lation of General Johnston. The principal caus,:s that led to this result was the fact that the Southern Confederacy was fighting such fearful•odds—five to one at least—directly, and the whole world besides indirectly; for all the Governments supported the United States Government, and the only sympathy we had was from citizens of Great Britain (a large number, I believe). I could never believe until now that the Governments of England and France would be so wanting in real statesman ship as to allow this country to become re united, and I am satisfied that the future will prove that their true policy was to interfere, and recognise the Southern Confederacy. If we had got our ironclads in 1863 we could have raised the blockade, supplied our exhausted country, and to day have been free and independent. We have been overwhelmed ; not conquered. We feel no loss of manhood. Nobly we contended against the fearful odds—gave up our all for our cause—" The right of self-government." The Yankees could not conquer our men. They had to resort to a war upon our women and children—our homes. Sher man's army publicly declared that. I heard many of them say so myself. Most ruthlessly did they carry out their design. The track of Sherman's army—some 40 to 50 miles wide and 400 to 500 miles long—through it he carried fire and sword— nothing left in his path but smoking ruins anddeso lation ; live-stock of every description driven off, or killed, for his army ; killed what they could not carry away ; all the grain and produce not con sumed by his army burned or 'destroyed : all the towns in the track more or less burned ; women and children left houseless and starving. All this in the 19th century, by a Christian army ! and upon those they, a short time ago, called their brothers ! And all for what ? Why, for our simply asserting the great principle of the right of self government—a principle upon which this Govern ment is founded, and for which their fathers and ours fought only 90 years ago. With all these cir cumstances against us, we should still have con quered if the Yankees had not called in the negrQ to their help. The negro did not render them much assistance in fighting ; but they took him from his labour and seriously injured our indus trial pursuits. The negro has given us no trouble by insubordination ; but he could not withstand that which was held out to him, to do nothing and be fed and clothed—his idea of liberty. The Yankees (except in the case of a small number of genuine, though mistaken phi lanthropists) care' nothing about the negro, except to use him. Sherman's army robbed the negroes here in Columbia (that I saw) and through the country, just as thoroughly as they did the whites, and many a poor slave they carried away came back to his master, saying " he had seen enough of the Yankee." Hundreds perished in the track of his army. At first, I thought a liberal policy would prevail, and something like sound statesmanship rule the North. Even Sherman, with all his infamy of burning, still had sense enough to learn, by his intercourse with the South, that the true way to settle the difficulty between the sections was to act generously, and thus prevent future trouble ; but his counsels were cast away—wild, blind, devilish fanaticism must have its way until it has burned itself out. The " Puritans," under Cromwell, the French, under Robeppierre, could not be stopped; so with the present " Puritans," their wildest passions will have sway until the whole nation, North and South, becomes sick of them— then " The King will have his own again." The sober second thought of the Northern people them-. selves must soon become disgusted with the set that rule at Washington now. My soul sickens, how ever, at the thought of what we must suffer in the meantime. We shall be overrun with a herd of the most avaricious, thieving, unprincipled set of men the world ever saw—the United States Government trying to get as much as possible out of us, and the army of sharpers robbing both us and the Govern ment. I think the Yankee Government intend to take all our cotton, some 172 millions to 200 millions bales, on some pretext or other, and all the other property they can lay their hands upon—in other words, we are to be generally plundered. Such is our conviction now from all we can see. I presume the Yankee Government intend to emancipate the negroes, but their great problem is " what to do with them." The Southern people, the slaveholders, care very little about it. Slavery has been gradually changing during the past fifty years. The negro of the present day is no more like the savage landed on our shores by foreign and Yankee traders (for be it always borne in mind that the Southerner was not engaged in the slave-trade, it was principally carried on by the fathers of the very men now fighting us), some _ _ • 00 years ago, than the Saxon slave of William " the Conqueror" was like the peasant of England of the present day. The process of emancipation was going on silently and gradually, but surely. We took the negro a wild beast ; to-day he is far advanced in civilisation and Christianity, clothed, and in his right mind, and his condition more improved than that of the Saxon serf during a like period. The negro was making his way up surely—the master was giving way to his advance ment—in a few years their sale at auction and separation of families would have ceased ; it had engaged the attention of all our religious bodies, and must soon have been effected ; public opinion was steadily tending that way, and the negro would have soon obtained that position in the social scale that God designed for him ; what that is or was, Ido not pretend to say. Five thousand years have shown him to be inferior to the white man, still we were willing to leave that to God to deter mine. His emancipation would then have come gradually, like that of the Saxon slave, for no one can point out exactly when that took place. The proof of the mildness of our so-called " slavery" is in the fact that the Yankee has failed to incite the negro to deeds of revenge or murder against their masters. They were induced to leave their masters under the allurements of no " work and plenty to eat." Thousands of British subjects would have done the same during the excitement of the French revolution if an army had landed near Manchester promising plenty of food an d immunit y from toil, and the distribution of the nobles' estates among them. If the Yankee would only consult the Southern planters, they would cheerfully devise a scheme that would work harmoniously and prove beneficial to both classes, but I am afraid it will be managed in such a way as to produce a violent shock and antagonism between the races, in which the negro must go down. I am satisfied the Yanke es mean to drive out andexterminate the negro ; they have no love for them really (I mean, of course, to ex cept always a few honest ones). Into the future, I confess, I dare not look ; what is to be unfolded God alone knows, and it is only the conviction of his superintending care that supports us in this dark and trying hour. If the oppression becomes too great, the soldiers of an hundred battles will not submit, and a new scene in the great drama of blood will be enacted. So much for my bleeding country! The murder of Lincoln and attempt on Seward has been attempted to be put on the leaders of the Southern Confederacy by the designing politicians of the North, but be assured they had no hand in it whatever ; it is not our way of doing business. Assassination is not characteristic of the South, and it was not to our interest to put Lincoln and Seward out of the way ; for we knew we could get better terms out of them than we could hope for out of Johnson and the violent clique that now rule. Johnson is a man of the lowest origin (not poor and virtuous parents even), and a renegade Southerner ; so from him we had nothing to expect. The Southern people repudiate the imputation ; they think, of course, Lincoln met but a righteous retri bution for plunging this country in war; but *e THE GENERAL EL: POLLING THIS DAY.

May God and Jesus, Holy Gh., one in three—welcome Minnie. Prayer on prayer till mine be o'er ; everlasting love. Save us, Lord, for thy dear Son." THE HAYTIAN INSURRECTION. —The royal mail steamer Plantaganet, belonging to the West India and Pacific Steamship Company, arrived at Li verpoo l on Sunday night from Port-au-Prince, which port she left on June 20. Salnare had fortified the town, and with his 500 or 600 followers was keeping the Haytian army in check. The steamer Giffrond left on the 18th with heavy artillery. Since the 14th of June the port and town of the Cape had been declared in a state of blockade. An efficient force was to establish an effective blockade. All the members of the Provisional Government had disappeared, and Salnare was the only one remaining. Business at an entire standstill. Gold, 248 to 252. Coffee, 168 to 170.

SCENE AT THE QUEEN'S THEATRE, HULL.-011 Saturday night, whilst the drama of " Jeanie Deans" was being performed at the Queen's Theatre, Hull, a num ber of planks fell from the roof on to the stage during one of the scenes, in which the well-known actress Miss Mar riott, and several members of the stock company were taking part. This circamstance gave rise to a belief that the roof was falling in. Moreover, a cry of " Fire !" was raised in the gallery, which served to increase the fear that had seized the audience—a crowded one. Under the dread of one or other alarm being well founded, the audience arose en masse, and rushed to the doors. A fearful scene ensued. The doorways became choked up, and the attempts made to get out were vain. Amid screaming, yelling, struggling, and the:wildest disorder, a great part of the audience were either knocked down, trampled upon, and severely bruised, or frightfully crushed against the passage walls. The greatest sufferers were removed to a neighbouring chemist's, and surgical aid was soon obtained. As soon as they were able to be removed they were taken to their respective homes. In the more serious cases, however, it was deemed advisable to convey them to the infirmary. There was not the slight est cause for alarm; the roofing which fell in was very small indeed. Some time elapsed ere order was completely restored. 'rive performance was resumed. THE BAPTISM OF PRINCE GEORGE OF WALES.— Yesterday a supplement to the London Gazette of Friday last was issued. It contains an account of the ceremonial observed at the baptism of the infant son of the Prince and Princess of Wales, full details of which have already appeared. had no hand in it, and think the true cause lies near Washington itself. Personally, I am about ruined ; the destruction of this place by Sherman destroyed my store and a large stock of goods, and my Confederate securities are now worthless. Many of us would quit this country if we had the means of seeking a new home, but we know not where to turn. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE, TAT TERSALLS'—LAST EVENING. Noting shows the great change that has come over the spirit of speculation more than the aspect of Tattersall's on a Monday aJternoon. For the last five or six weeks we have had but to repeat the almost stereotyped phrase, " very little busizess done." The room is generally well attended, but nearly the whole of the time is taken up with the settling. Men bet as heavily as they ever did, proba bly more so, but it is in a different fashion. The large sums of money which now change hands at Knightsbridge represent fox the most part transactions at the post. Book making on future events seems rapidly becoming a lost occupation. Time was when the G oo d wood Stakes was one of the greatest betting races of the year, and at this period speculation in full swing. Now the utmost apathy prevails about that and the Cup, and the few quotations below are in marked contrast to the long list of prices of three or four years since. Claremont was in great favour among the few backers present; 9 to 2 was all that could be obtained about him, andin some instances,wo believe, hardly that. Lady Hylda did not appear to go quite so well, and Sister to the Drake andScheldt were the only horses that could be called at all in demand. For the Cup, Eltham had tho call over Gladiateur. The mare we did not hear mentioned. There were a few transactions on the Derby, which will speak for themselves.

The anticipated arrival of Dr. Pritchard in Glasgow, by an early train from Edinburgh, caused a crowd of people, anxious to get a look at the notorious convict, to assemble waiting on the train at the Edinburgh and Glasgow sta tion, but they were • disappointed, as the doctor had been taken out at Cowlairs. Governor Stirling having arranged for his reception, left Edinburgh by early express on Satur day morning, and, lest his own widely-known visage should attract attention, sent the prison clerk to Cowlairs station in a plain carriage to wait on the arrival of the prisoner. Mr. Ferguson, with his charge fast bound to the officers on each side, duly appeared about 11.30, and getting into the carriage almost unobserved, drove rapidly away to Duke-street prison, where he was handed over to Gover nor Stirling, in the presence of Sheriff Strathern and the assistant-surgeon of the prison. After being stripped of his clothes and dad in prison garb he was removed to the condemned cell. Five warders have been detailed to guard him, two being present with him during the day, and relieved by other two at night, while the third at tends in the corridor without. Tho cell for the condemned is simply two of the common cells put into one, and fitted up for the reception of the convict and two warders. Dr. Pritchard's extensive acquaintance with subtle poisons being known and dreaded by those whose duty it is to keep the unhappy man alive till the laws he outraged avenge themselves, he will be watched with more than the usual care. Careful guard has all along been kept on him in this respect. During the course of the trial in Edin burgh, every night when he left the court his clothes were taken off and carefully examined, and a prison suit handed to him after he had undergone a bath, and had his beard and finger nails carefully cleaned, lest some potent poison in minute form might be concealed about him. No one will now be permitted to see him, unless on special permit from the Prison Board, and the interview will take place in the presence of Governor Stirling. The demeanour of the unhappy man is a striking contrast to what it was before he left the prison for Edinburgh. Then he either assumed or naturally carried himself in a jaunty, confident way, never for a moment expressing himself as otherwise than sure of being freed after trial. Now his over-confidence has given way to prostration of both mind and body. On Saturday, as he descended in the court-yard of the prison from the carriage his weak and tottering gait showed that he required assis tance, and he was accordingly helped by two of the warders to a room, where stimulants were admininstered to him. On Sunday he continued during the whole day lying is a sort of stupor, speaking not to those around him, and apparently absorbed in the greatness of his own misery. The excitement which the trial in Edinburgh gave rise to did not terminate with the verdict and tho sentence ; for on Friday evening about ten o'clock a report was current that Pritchard had succeeded in poisoning himself. Many and absurd were the surmises as to how he had obtained possession of the poison. Such a hold did the report take of the public mind that messengers were despatched to the various newspaper offices from the hotels to ascertain whether there was any truth in it. The usual'sources of information were, however, equally in the dark, as it was only at a somewhat late hour that they learned that there was no truth whatever in the report.—North British Daily Mail.

The old sweetness of voice remains, and now and then he warbles with moving tenderness many of those songs and melodies which have madetim famous throughout Europe.

SUGAR.—Thero has been a fair demand for home con sumption ; and owing to the stocks on hand being rather smaller than usual, prices in most instances are well sup ported. Refined goods are in fair request at steady rates. COFFEE.—The inquiries for colonial descriptions have been to an average extent, and quotations generally a re well maintained. RICE.—A moderate amount of business has been done, and late prices are well sustained. TALLOW.—The market remains very quiet. P.Y.C. on the spot is quoted 41s. 6d., and for last threo months deli very 425. 6d. to 425. 9d. per cwt. Liverpool Cotton Market—This Day. Market opens rather quiet. Saks, probably 6,000 bales. We announced in our impression of Saturday that the iron sailing ship Chili, of London, would go into dry-dock on Monday to be examined, after being afloat for thirteen months and seven days without scrub bing, careening, hogging, or repainting ; and certainly could not help considering it a somewhat bold step for Messrs. Peacock and Buchan to adopt in inviting the public to inspect a ship after so lengthened a period of service afloat in salt water, on their own faith in the merits of their preparation for keeping away tostacas, weeds, &c. ; however, we understand that the result has been most triumphant for these gentlemen. Officials from the Admiralty, Transport Board, Troop-Shiro Department, and Emigration Board attended, to gether with several shipowners, iron shipbuilders, ships' husbands, &c., who all congratulated the inventors on its signal success ; for the ship, we aro informed, as the water left her, was found to be per fectly clean, with the exception of a little slimy excretion, and one solitary sizable barnacle which was clinging to a spot where the composition had evidently been rubbed off before leaving London last summer, the exception thus proving the rule. THE EVACUATION OF SAN DOMINGO BY SPAIN.— Advices received at Madrid from San Domingo to the Bth ult. give the following as the terms of the conven tion concluded between the Spanish and Dominican gene rals prior to the evacuation of the island by the Spanish troops :—" 1. The Dominican Government recognises that it is solely to an act of magnanimity on the part of the Spanish people that they will owe the independence they are about to enjoy. 2. The Dominicans who, faithful to Spain, may wish to remain in San Domingo, will live under the protection of the laws, their persons and inte rests being respected, and those who may leave the country will have the option of returning thereto when they wish, and will enjoy the same advantages during their absence. 3. The Government of the Republic will pay to Spain an indemnity for the expenses of the war, the amount of which will be subsequently determined by treaty. 4. The Domi nican Government solemnly engages not to alienate all or any of their territory without the consent and authorisation of Spain. 5. Upon the abandonment of the island by Spain, the sick of the Spanish army now in hospital will remain until their restoration to health, being tended and assisted with care ; their expenses to be paid by an officer of the Spanish Military Administration, who will remain on the island for that purpose." THE ATLANTIC TELEGRAPH CABLE.----The Kerry Post states that the local coastguards have been much occupied for some days past in taking soundings for the shore end of the Atlantic cable, and otherwise preparing for its temporary reception on tho shore at Foilhamurram, at the west end of Valentin. The operation of laying down the shore end was to be commenced yesterday, so as to have everything prepared for the arrival of the Great Eastern. It is expected that she will be off Valentia, and that the work of splicing the ocean cable to the shore end will be completed in time for her to proceed on her voyage wind and weather permitting, on the 12th or 13th. The Great Eastern will come within a couple of miles of the land off Valentia ; but in no case will unofficial persons be allowed to go on board. as it would interfere with the work to be done. ;e. ly a- in Lib 1- as Id to 204 10 100 { ICO 100 100 {lOO 2 100 100 [NES. 103 104 15i 11! i 102,1 1001 1 loot 1031 107} 95i 6 49 } 130 , 1941 121 f & I
