1110NfY-XAIKET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLICIENOE, TWELVE o'CLocK. The Money Market is inactive, but the floating capital is abundant, and there is also an opinion that the present onerous terms required for the negotiation of commercial paper cannot remain much longer, and that a modification is certain within a short time. As yet the mercantile classes have to pay from 8 to 10 per cent. for good short dated bilis. A gum of £25,000 in sovereigns was withdrawn from the Bank yesterday, and £9,000 in bars was received there. Vic e - Chancellor Stuart has appointed Mr. W. Tabor and Mr. Alfred A. James, of the firm of Messrs. Edwards, James, and Co., official liquidators of the International Contract Company (Limited). The directors of the London Financial Association, at the half -yearly meeting of shareholders held to day, announced that they deemed it inexpedient to recommend the payment of a dividend for the past half-year. At a meeting held to-day of the Merchant Ship pfitpirnogCompany, th e report presented stated that the from voyages completed during the year amount to £28,478. The directors proposed to declare the usual dividend at the rate of 10 per cent. per annum, free of income tax. The directors of the English and Australian Copper Company have issued their report, which states that the estimate of the six months opera tions of the company show a profit of £2,314 120. 2 d., which it is proposed to carry over for divi sion at the end of the year. In conclusion, the directors consider that the whole year's working will be satisfactory, although the present price of copper (which is lower than it has been for the last sixteen years) precludes their holding out any hopes of very large profits on the current year. Two O'CLOCK. At the Paris Bourse, this morning, according to Reuter's telgram, the 3 per cent. Rentes were 68f. 65 c. Flat. The English Stock Market has been further de pressed to-day, and a decline of 1 per cent. has taken place in the Funds. The depreciation is chiefly owing to a few speculative sales, and there is nothing else to account for the heaviness which now prevails. Consols are 871 884 for money, and 88/ for the account. The New Threes and Reduced Annuities are 871 1 ; India 5 per Cents., 103} ; and ditto Bonds, 15s. prem. Foreign Stocks are generally flat. Turkish Five per Cents, declined to 271 1 ; Mexican, .to 174 ; Spanish Passive, k to 201 4 ; the Certificates, 1 to 15 + 4 ; Italian, 11 to 521 531 ; and the Brazilian Scrip, 1 to 3.2idis. ; Greek have adva nce d 1 to 11 fr. American Securities are also lower. United States 5.20 Bonds have declined to 691 4 ; Erie Shares, 1 to 441. ; and Illinois 11 to 771 1.

The annual rate of mortality was 29 per 1,000 persons Jiving. In London the births of 1,008 boys and 1,015 girls, in all 2,023 children, were registered in the week. In the corresponding weeks of ten years, 1856-65, the average number, corrected for increase of population, was 1,909. The deaths registered in London during the week were 1,798. It was the 29th week of the year; and the average number of deaths for that week was, with a correction for inerectsc of population, 1,370. Te deaths in the present return exceed by 428 the estimated number. While epidemic cholera has been for months pre valent in several cities on the Continent, and in some cities, such as Amiens, has been extraordinarily fatal, London has hitherto remained free from its ravages. At the end of June the temperature was exces sively high, and after that cholera cases were no ticed ; their character was not at first grave, but in the first week of July 14 cases, in the second 32 cases, of cholera were registered, half of them at least of the epidemic type. In the week that ended on Saturday last 346 deaths from cholera were re corded. This fatal explosion occurred chiefly in the comparatively poor districts of the east of Lon don. The mortality by the epidemic is much greater than it was in the corresponding week of 1854, but not so great as it was in the epidemic of 1849. Of the 346 fatal cases now recorded, 308 occurred in the east districts of the metropolis. In the sub district of Bow the total number of deaths was 77 ; of these 39 were referred to cholera. In the sub district of Poplar 93 deaths were registered, and the deaths from cholera were 52. In the sub-district of Limehouse the deaths were 54 ;of these were from cholcra. In Green sub-district, Bethnal-green, 59 deaths occurred ; 30 of these from cholera. In the sub-d'strict of Mile-end Old-town Eastern, 57 deaths were recorded ; 33 from cholera. Eleven deaths from cholera were registered in the west dis tricts, 6in the north, and 20 in the south. Only one death from the epidemic occurred in central dis tricts. Former experience should now be turned to account, and the authorities should be as prompt in defence as the cholera is in attack. The annual rate of mortality last week was 31 per 1,000 in London ; 20 in Edinburgh, and 17 in Dublin ; 22 in Bristol, 16 in Birmingham, 43 in Liverpool, 31 in Manchester, 30 in Sal:ord, 27 in Sheffield, 33 in Leeds, 21 Hull, 27 in Newcastle upon-Tyne, and 30 in Glasgow. The rate in "Vienna was 29 per 1,000 during the week ending the 7th inst., when the temperature was 10.1 deg. Fahrenheit higher than in the same week in Lon don, where the rate was 22 per 1,000. At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean height of the barometer in the week was 29.894 in. The barometrical reading decreased from 30.01 in. on Sunday to 29.74 i 1. on Thursday. The mean temperature of the air in the week was 62.2 deg., which is 0.2 deg. above the average of the same week in 50 years (as determined by Mr. Glaisher). The highest day temperature was 83.3 deg., on Sun day. The lowest night temperature was 47.2 deg., on Wednesday and Saturday. The entire range of temperature in the week was therefore 361 deg. The mean of the highest temperature of the water of the Thames was 681 deg. ; that of the lowest 67 deg. The difference be'aveen the mean dew-point temperature wad air temperature was 81 deg. The mean degree of humidity of the air was 75, com plete saturation being represented by 100. No rain fell in any of the 13 towns. STATE OF TRADE. - MANCHESTER, 24th.-IVe have had a strong and active market to-day for shipping yarns, and a fair business has been done for various export markets, but the advance of prices asked by spinners has had a tendency to check- operations. Prices had an up ward tendency to the close. The market for home trade yarns has also been strong, and business in thee has been limited by the advance required by sellers. As compared with last week spinners are demaad;ng an advance of id. to Id. per lb. In cloth prices have been forced up as in yarn by the con tinued activity and upward tendency in the prices of cotton at Liverpool. Telegrams say that 20,000 bales have been sold at Liverpool, to-day, at id. to id. per lb. advance on the rates of yesterday. Ma nufacturers say that as a rule they would have to give Id. on low counts of cop yarn, and of lid. on fine numbers. The advance which this imp'ies on cloths stops business. The India and China mer chants have nearly all withdrawn from the markets under these circumstances, and very little business has been effected for thesomarkets. The news from the Continent is regarded as amounting to a termi nation of the war, and there is generally a better feeling in the market ; but manufacturers generally find it next to impracticable to obtain prices for their cloth, which will cover the cost of cotton and yarn. Messrs. Joh n Sl agg an d C o. repor t o f thi s day's cloth-market Owing to the pacific tone of news from th e Continent, there has been a con siderable advanc e in the raw material, and most qualities of yarns, especially fine counts. We are obliged, ther e f ore, to advance our quotations ; but buyers still seem unwilling to operate, and our mar ket closes with a very small business. The failure of Messrs. Thomas Lund and Brothers, Merchants, Blackburn, is announted, and of Messrs Lunds and - Vernon, cotton brokers, Liverpool. These failures are said to have resulted from the stoppage of the Preston Banking Company." CARDIFF, 23d.—The demand for steam coal is, if anything, better than it has been for the past month. The exports to the foreign markets, espe cially those of Southern Europe, are consider able, and orders are coming in freely. Opera tions at the docks are brisk, and there are less com plaints of the detention of vessels in loading. The requirements of the home market have of late much increased ; in fact, the tonnage sent by railway to London is double what it was a few months since. The inquiry for house coal is quiet, and the coast ing trade is less active, In the iron trade no trans actions of any moment have taken place, and orders from the foreign markets conic in slowly. Many of the makers have begun reducing their establish ments, and atllirwain both the furnaces and forges have been brought to a complete standstill. Should no improvement take place, steps no doubt will be taken to further reduce the , make. The advices from America and the East show no material change. If the cessation of hostilities leads to peace, some good orders may be expected f rom the markets of both Northern and Southern Europe. There is a large con tract in the market from New South Wales for railway iron, which iS likely to come to this district. There is not much doing in pig-iron, and tin plates are a little firmer, sales being effected with less difficulty than was experienced a month since. LEEDS, 24th.—There has not been much difference hdi ethe fancy coatings, an d white in the cloth-hall mark ets to - day from tho se we h ave lately had to report. The attendance of p urc h asers was not very far abo rt o f an average for a T ues d ay , but they purchased slowly. In the colo ure d cloth cloth-hall a moderate sale of heavy goods was effected. Th ere tweedshall f e w w e parcelsre made a de up, a o fplaincloths, was, however, no disposition to purchase largely, and some buyers were more intent on securing job lots than in buying goods at the full prices current. Manufacturers, however, are generally firm, and quotations for all seasonable goods are quite as high as last week. The same may be said as to wools. NOTTINGHAM, 24th.—The attendance to-day was pretty good. For lace yarns there was a moderate inquiry, and fine numbers were 2d. ; medium, 3d. ; and low, 6d. per lb, dearer. Hosiery yarns sold steadily at unaltered prices. Brown nets without material change. Silks realised higher prices. ROCHDALE, 23d.—There was a rather better at tendance of buyers in the flannel market to-day, and more disposition to purchase was shown than for the last few weeks. Plain white flannels keep rather flat, the demand being limited. Many of the best fancy fabrics sell well, and, indeed, the fancy trade keeps active, and late prices are well maintained. Yorkshire goods §tili keep quiet, though there is as RENEWAL OF THE RIOTS IN HYDE PARK. MARLBOROUGH-STREET-(THIS DAY). After the disposal of the usual night charges, Thomas Anglin was charged before Mr. Knox with stone-throwing in Hyde Park. Police-constable 606 A was in Park-lane last night, and saw stone-throwing going on. On taking the prisoner into custody he had a brick in his hand. _ _ The prisoner said it was the first time he had been in a court-house, and asked for mercy.

John Rawlings, charged with a similar offence. George Mew, 72 A, saw prisoner throw a stone and strike a gentleman, who was on horseback, on the shoulder. Prisoner denied throwing stones.

Seymour, 42 D, was last night in Hyde Park. Stones and missiles were being thrown at the police. Amongst the persons was the prisoner, who was very much excited, and struck him across the nose with his umbrella. Prisoner said he was very sorry, and that in a moment of excitement he forgot himself. Mr. Knox said, prisoner having expressed contrition, he would only fine him 10s. Patrick Doherty was next called. Garratry, aconstable of the E Division, saw the prisoner pick up a stone, followed him, and saw him throw the stone at him. The prisoner denied throwing the stone. The constable said he was knocked down. Mr. Knox committed the prisoner for two months with hard labour. George Simpson was next charged with stone-throwing. Stanly, 355 A, was in Oxford-street last night, near the Marble-arch, and seeing prisoner throw a stone amongst the persons, took him into custody, his excuse for throwing the stone being that some one had struck him. kr. Knox remarked that yesterday ho noticed that not one of the prisoners had a mark on them, though the po lice had. Mr. Knox fined prisoner 40s. or a month. Alfred Young was next charged with stone-throwing. George Carr, 78 D, was on duty at the corner of Cum berland-street last night, and saw prisoner stoop down two or three times, and take up stones and throw them amongst the crowd, towards the Marble-arch, and he then took him into custody. Mr. Knox—ls it true the windows were broken there ? The constable said it was. Inspector Harrison said several windows were also broken in Grosvenor-street. _ _ The constable said the prisoner, when he took him, dropped some stones. Prisoner said what the constable stated was not right. Mr. Knox inflicted a fine of 405., or a month. Geo. Woodbridge charged with damaging the park railings. Constable 166 D, Yates, saw the prisoner about 8 last night throw several stones at the police, and then took him into custody. He did not deny doing it. Prisoner, who had no answer to make, was fined 40s. or a month. Alexander Cullen was charged with throwing a stick at the police. Hughes, 72 A, saw prisoner shouting with a large stick in his hand. He then threw the stick at an inspector and struck him on the head. The stick was about two feet in length and as thick as a broom handle. Inspector Bradstock said he was surrounded by a large crowd of roughs, and received a blow, a severe one, on the helmet. The blow, however, did not hurt him. In answer to Mr. Knox, he said there must have been 10,000 persons throwing stones and hissing, and the people seemed to have an ill-feeling to the ladies in carriages. Prisoner had nothing to say in answer to the charge. Mr. Knox—lt is perfectly shocking to see a parcel of lads acting as prisoner had done. They would find the law too strong for them. Fined 40s. Henry Helcomb was charged with assault. Garraty, 26 D : About four yesterday at the Marble Arch 1 went with others to clear away some persons who had collected there. Prisoner refused, and told others not to do so, stating that he had no sympathy with the police, and that he hoped they would get what they deserved. Directly after I was struck on the helmet with a stone. Pushed prisoner and others back, and prisoner and another tried to pull me into the crowd. Told him if he did not desist I would take him into custody, and as he refused to do so I took him, and he then kicked him the (constable) on the legs. Re fused to walk, and had to carry him. Prisoner denied kicking the constable. He told the con stable he was a respectable tradesman, and would leave. Constable again pushed him, and he certainly did put his his hand on the constable, and then ho was carried off by the police. Tho prisoner called a witness, who said he saw the con stable push the prisoner down. He never heard prisoner make use of an ill word. Mr. Knox asked the witness whether he did not think it would be more prudent to keep out of the park. The witness said it would, but he had business that way. Mr. Knox said what they had heard yesterday was a scandal to the town. The police had a right by law to clear away an obstruction. Another witness said there was an order given to clear these persons from the gate, as there was an obstacle. He considered the constable's conduct scandalous, as he struck women and children, and if ever a person exceeded his duty it was the constable. The prisoner said he was a linendraper in Lisson-grove. Mr. Knox said it was a case which must be thoroughly and properly investigated. Although he was determined to put down the ruffianism in the park, nothing was further from his intention than to permit an excess of duty ou the part of the police. He would adjourn the case for a week. Mr. Hutchinson said he had to apply for a 'warrant against the constable :Gerroty for assaulting a gentleman named Wright, a railway clerk, The gentleman had his head cut open. Mr. Knox said a summons would servo the purpose, and granted one. Francis Bevan and W. Clevins were charged with throw ing stones, and assaulting John Norman, 159 Y. W. Cox, 143 Y, saw Clevins standing in the window sill of an area in Bryanston-street throwing stones, and he took him in custody. ' Norman, 159 Y, said stones were thrown from one side of Bryanston-street at the police, and on turning round to look received one on his breast, and on looking down an area saw the prisoners. Took hold of Clewins, who be. , gan :to struggle, and got his (constable's) finger in his mouth and bit him through, the same finger having been bitten six months ago. Clewins denied biting the constable's finger, and said the reason why they got down the area was because they thought the horse police were coming. Sergeant Butcher, 37 Y, received a stone on the leg, causing it to bleed. A gentleman in Bryanston-street said stones were being thrown from his area, and on getting into the area he found the constables and the prisoners struggling together. Bevan said seeing the people• running ho did not know what to do, Wing afraid, and so he got down th e area. Bevan's master gave him an excellent character, and stated that if the boy had misconducted himself he re gretted it. Mr. Knox said there was no evidence Bevan threw a stone, and as he would make a mistake on the side of mercy he would discharge Clewins, who would have, to pay 40s. for the stone throwing, and would decide as to the assault when he saw the doctor's certificate. John Talbot was next charged with throwing stones. Rook, Y Division, said the prisoner threw a stone, and asking what he had got in his pocket, he said " a pipe." On searching him ho found two large stones. Mr. Knox fined the prisoner 40s. or a month. John Hole, a dcci and dumb lad, was charged with damaging the park railings. Police-constable 160 Y saw the prisoner in the Bays water-row last night about 10 wrench a railing from its place and put it on his shoulders and walk away. The evidence was explained to the prisoner by a gentle man from the Association in Aid of the Deaf and Dumb. Prisoner denied the damage but admitted lifting it, H e was at work at a marble works, Mr. Knox wished he could take the boy's infirmity into consideration. Prisoner said he was out of work and had nothing to do. Mr. Knox—And so he goes into the park and does this mischief. I cannot let him escape altogether, and he must pay a shilling for the damage and 20s. fine. His father had better keep him out of mischief. Count de Reiset, Minister of France at the Court of Hanover, has informed the leading manufacturers of that place that the opening of the French Universal Exhibition stands i , .revocably fixed for the Ist April, 1867, and he has eapiessed a wish that this information should be generally made known. The German journals state that Col. Peehmann, of the Bavarian army, in despair at the defeat of his regi ment at Kissingen, a lighted from his horse dur:ng the retre:A after the battle, and going into tho room of a wayside inn, committed suicide by blowing out his brains. much doing in them as we have lately had to report. Wools arc steady in price, but manufacturers still purchase cautiously. There is a general anticipa tion that the flannel trade will improve on the re establishment of peace on the Continent, to which few goods have lately been sent. Naval and Military Intelligence. The annual celebration of the garrison athletic games and races came off yesterday at Woolwich, under the sanction and patronage of Major-General Warde, C. 8., commanding the district. The com mittee of management consisted of Col. E. Wode house, C. 8., Royal Artillery, president ; Col. the Hon. G. T. Devereux, R.A. ; Col. C. V. Cox, R.H.A. ; Lieut.-Col. Stewart, Royal Marine Light Infantry ; Lieut.-Col. Ord, R.A., and many others; Capt. L. Clarke, R.A., and Capt. Carrington, Royal Marine Light Infantry, hon. secs. ; and other offi cers filling the posts of stewards, judges, umpires, and clerks of the course. The exercises on the hori zontal bar, &c., by the gymnastic instructors, ob tained immense applause, and were certainly un equalled on any previous occasion ; and the races, which varied in distance from 440 yards to a mile, were very closely contested. In some there were 53 and 54 competitors. The flat race over 200 yards, in marching order, with 161 b. kit, rifle, bayonet, belts, &c., and 20 rounds of ammunition extra, was well sustained. The prizes varied from £5 to £1 10$., and one to the winner of the greatczt number of prizes was an elegant silver claret jug, given by Prince Arthur, who was present a great portion of the day, and was the guest of General and Mrs. Warde at luncheon. The result of these and similar performances instituted by the present commandant in place of the ordinary field drills has proved highly satisfactory. The chartered East Indiaman Agamemnon, which has been taken up for the conveyance of the 11th (Prince Albert's O wn) Hussars to India, was in spected yesterday by Major-General Sir R. Wal pole, K.C.8., commanding the Chatham district, accompanied by the diNisronal Staff. Should the inspection of the vessel prove satisfactory, the Aga memnon will embark her troops to-day. The chartered troopship Renown was yesterday expected at Gravesend from the East India Docks, to be in readiness to embark upwards of 400 artil lery and infantry for conveyance to Bombay. There are several other vessel's chartered for the convey ance of the annual draughts and reliefs to India, there being upwards of 1,000 cavalry and infantry troops, of various regiments, still under orders for e albarkati on. The undermentioned battalions of the Brigade of Guards, under the command of Major-Gen. Lord F. Paulet, C. 8., were inspected by his Royal High ness the Field Marshal Commanding-in-Chief in Hyde-park yesterday :—The 2d battalion Cold stream Guards, commanded by Col. Hepburn, and the 2d battalion Scots Fusileer Guards, commanded by Col. Stephenson, C.B. The battalions were formed into line in review order, opposite Grosve nor-gate, to receive the Commander-in-Chief, at 10 a.m. His royal highness, accompanied by his staff, arrived on the ground at the above named hour, and was received with a royal salute ; he then rode down the line and inspected the men, after which he took up his position at the saluting post, and the battalions marched past in quick time, first by grand divisions, and afterwards in quarter distance column by battalions. They were then put through the usual. evolutions of a firing field-day. The re view lasted about two hours, and at its conclusion his royal highness expressed himself entirely satisfied with the appearance and steadiness of the troops under arms. The battalions were then marched to their respectivebarracks and dismissed. The ground was kept by a detachment of Life Guards and a party of the 2d battalion Grenadier Guards. The Recorder of Liverpool on Strit es. In h;s charge to the grand jury on Monday, at the opening of the borough sessions, the Recorder of Liverpool said :—Tbere was one case to which he wanted to draw their attention, not so much be cause of any difficulty which it might occasion them, but because of its nature, and because it xv as desirable that something should be said about it. He saw there were two or three people who would be charged before them with having committed violence on certain other persons in consequence of differences arising out of one of those strikes which unfortunately so often arose in all great centres of pop ul ation and labour. Now, a strike was very of ten an unfortunate thing in itself, even though the persons who engaged in it might have had, in the first instance, some grounds for the dissatisfaction which they evinced at the rate of wages which they were receiving ; but a strike by itself was not an unlawful thing—that was to say, in itself, pro secuted by purely legal means. Labourers and ar t;ficers had as much right to combine and consult for the purpose of regulating the wages which they would receive, as their employers had to combine or consult for the purpose of settling what wages they would pay, or as merchants or tradesmen had a right if they thought proper—and he supposed cases sometimes arose when they thought it desirable to do so—to combine for the purpose of settling the price at which they would sell or buy any article of produce.. But in according to the working m'n that right which undoubtedly he had, there was the greatest possible necessity, both for his own sake, or at least for the sake of his own class, and for the sake of the general public, to guard against any excess of it being allowed. It was possible to overrate the danger of such au event, consider ing that those strikes were generally the action of very large bodies of men, Fable to excitement, and liable to be led away by dangerous or crafty persons to tumultuous and dangerous conduct. It was there- fore of the greatest possible importance that they themselves should b 3 taught what was the line be yond which they must not go, and how far they might go in the prosecution of their desires and their designs, for such prosecution seemed allowed to them without reference to its wisdom, because with that they (the court and jury) had nothing to do. The courts of justice and the public had nothing to do with that,:excepang so far as they might take in terest in it without interfering with the progress of a strike, though they should be of opinion that the men were wrong in the view which they took. The only thing with which they bad to charge theni,?elves was to prevent them becoming illegal, but beyond that they had no right to interfere with their ob jects and opinions. No set of working men, however strong an opinion they might have formed as to the rate of wages for which they and their fellows ought to be obliged, or ought to consent to work, had a right to use the slightest degree of violence or the slightest threat towards any other working man or any other set of working men who might differ from them. Because it was perfectly obvious that the very liberty which they claimed for themselves, to act upon their own opinions, made it equally their duty to allow other people to act upon their opinions, and made it the grossest of all possible tyranny—a greater tyranny than could possibly have been in flicted upon them by their employers—to interfere with another set of men who did not entertain their opinions. Because 20 or 2,000 men might have con vinced themselves that a certain rate of wages was the lowest for which they ought to work in the in terests of themselves and their families, and if it should so happen that another set of men, equally well able to judge for themselves, were of a different' opinion, nothing could be more dangerous in the end to the principles and cause of the working man himself than to allow one or other set to have a right of annoyance over one another, or using threats to prevent them from acting on their own opinions. Therefore, on the one hand, nobody must go away with the opinion that a combined action on the part of the working man was unlaw ful for the pursuit of his object, so long as he kept within the law ; and on the other hand it was most important that he should be taught that the moment he stepped out of the law, the moment he attempted to exercise any undue tyranny over those that dif fered from him, that moment he would find that the hand of the law was too strong for him ; and when he did anything of that sort, that moment he would find, not for the sake of his employers, but to pro tect those of his own class who differed from him, that in outraging the law he had consigned himself to severe and painful punishment. ,ITIE6.

BORMAN (THE QUEEN'S PROCTER INTERVENING). The hearing of this case, which was fully reported in The Sun last Saturday, was resumed this day. It was an action by the wife for a dissolution of marriage on the ground of her husband's adultery and cruelty, the latter. charge being that he imparted to her a loathsome disease. The case was proceeding when we went to press. MARKETS.---This Day. MARK-LANE. Fresh up to our market to-day the receipts of wheat from Essex and Kent were very moderate. For both red and white parcels the trade was very dull, at quite Mon day's decline in the currencies. The quantity of foreign wheat on offer was somewhat extensive. There were very few buyers in attendance. The transactions in consequence were chiefly in retail at fully late reduction. In floating cargoes of grain sales progressed steadily, and the tendency of prices was in favour of buyers. The market was well supplied with barley, but scarcely any English produce was included in the supply. Th e demand was in a sluggish state, and inferior foreign parcels were rather easier in value. Malt was dull, at late rates. Oats, the show of which was large, changed hands slowly, and the value of inferior produce had a drooping tendency. Beans and peas were in limited request, on former terms. The flour trade was very quiet, at the late reduction in prices. ERIE ARRIVALS THIS WEEK. Wheat. Barley. Malt. Oats. Flour.
