ItIONEY MARKET COMATERCIAL INTELLIGENCE, TWELVE O'CLOCK Th e money market p resen t s a very encourag i ng p r ospect. The recent stringency has brought more capital out, and has checked a too rapid promotion of Joint-stock enterprise. Capitalists who have now am o od supply o f money on o ff er are i nduced to ploy it at about d per cent. below the official minimum, and the commercial classes are now reap 10g the b ene fi t of the competition which is now being expected. The int erest due Ist November next on the Mel bourne and Ilobson's Bay R a il way C ompany De bentures will be paid by the Alliance Bank on and after that date.

Will be drawn on the Government of Bombay. The accounts from the various manufacturing districts for the past week have generally been of a I, Ba nsfactory c h aracter. At Manchester, however, less activity has prevailed, and both cloths and Y a rns have been at slightly reduced rates. The , w oollen trade of Leeds, Bradford, and Huddersfield has been steady, but not active, and only moderate transactions have been reported. In the hosiery and lace departments of Leicester and Nottingham 111 °r e animation h as preva il e d, w hil e a t Birming ham, Sheffield, an d W o l ver h ampton t h e act i v i ty lately apparent has continued in most departments.

MARKETS—This Day. MARK-LANE. The wheat trade in the country markets held on Satur day ruled firm, and in several instances an advance of lA. per quarter took place in prices. Spring corn of all descrip tions was firm, and the tendency of values, as regards good and fine samples, was decidedly in favour of sellers. The flour trade was firm at full currencies. On the Continent the wheat trade is steady, and prices are rather higher. Tho trade for spring corn rules firm. Advices from New York state that the prices of wheat and flour continue to rule high, and that the business doing for export is very moderate. Very moderate suplies of English grain were received up to our market last week. The imports from abroad con sisted of 15,216 quarters of wheat ; 16,296 barley ; 52,175 oats ; 6,977 beans; 3,365 pease ; 9,126 linseed; 13,019 rape and Orlando; 10,431 maize; 50 sundry seeds; 227 sacks and 116 barrels flour. Fresh up to our market to-day the arrivals of wheat from Essex and Kent were very moderate. There were a few samples of last year's produce on offer, of fine quality , and the condition of the supply of now wheat was tole rably good. The trade was decidedly firm for all quali ties, and the best samples were held at an advance in price of is. per quarter. Millers, however, showed no disposition to operate freely, and sales, in consequence, progressed slowly ; nevertheless the full prices of Mon day last wero realised, both for red and white samples, selected produce being, in some instances, is. per quarter dearer than on that day. • A fair clearance had been effected at the close of business. The supply of Continental wheat on the stands was tolerably large, but with American produce the market was very moderately supplied. The amount of business transacted was moder Ste, and prices of all descriptions ruled firm. Our quotations to-day show scarcely any variation from this day se'nnight. Floating cargoes of grain were in fair demand. Both wheat and spring corn fully supported late rates. The supply of English barley exhibited a falling off from Monday last, but the show of foreign qualities was tolerably large. Good and find malting produce was scarce and changed hands at very full prices, otherwise the barley trade was quiet on former terms. Malt was in steady request, and fine samples were rather dearer. The supply of oats on sale was somewhat extensive. For nearly all qualities there was a steady demand, and prices were 6d per quarter higher than on Monday last. English beans worn a short supply, and the trade ruled firm, at fully late rates. For foreign qualities (of which there was a fair supply on offer) there was a steady de mand, at full prices. Peas changed hands at fully last Monday's currency. The show of samples was very moderate The flour trade was firm, and last Monday's quotations were well supported. Barrels continue in short supply, and are held at relatively high rates. CURRENCY PER IMP. MEASURE. Wheat—Essex and Kent, rod, new, per qr. 84s to 42.

There was a full average supply of foreign stock on offer here to-day, but its general quality was very middling. For the most part sales progressed slowly at about last week's quotations. The arrivals of beasts fresh up from our own grazing districts were somewhat on the increase, and in improved condition. Good and primo breeds moved off freely at full quotations ; otherwise, the beef trade was in a sluggish state on former terms. The receipts from Scotland were very limited, from Ireland tolerably good. The best Scots and crosses changed hands at from ss. 2d. to ss. 4d. per 81b. From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton shire we received 1,600 shorthorns, &c. ; from other ports of England, 500 various breeds ; from Scotland, 29 Scots and crosses; and, from Ireland, 290 oxen, cows, and heifers. Tho total supply of sheep was rather extensive, but more than a moiety of it was composed of foreigners. We had a steady, though not to say active, demand for Downs and half-breds, at extreme rates. Inferior sheep moved off slowly at about stationary prices. The top quotations were Gs Gd to 6s 8d per 81b. Most of the English sheep came to hand in fair condition. Calves, the supply of which was only moderate, moved off slowly, at late currencies —viz., from 4s 6d to 5s 6d per 81bs. The supply of pigs was rather extensive. The high rates demanded for thorn checked sales to come extent. However, the Ca pigs were worth 5s 10d per 81bs.

BOROUGH HOP. We have to report a steady trade for most descriptions of hops. All good and fine samples are selling at fully late rates, whilst the trade for inferior qualities must be considered firm as regards values. The imports into Lon don last week amounted to 517 bales from Antwerp; 249, Ostend ; 30, Rotterdam ; 25, Bremen ; 91, Hamburg ; 32, Boulogne; 76, Dunkirk; and 12 bales from Calais.

The October sessions commenced to-day before the Lord Mayor, Recorder, Sheriffs, and other civic officials. The calendar is a heavy one, and there are some serious cases to be tried. Ono of the principal cases is that of Abraham Isaacs, a costormonger, who is indicted for un lawfully and maliciously wounding John Pierce, an assis tant money-taker at one of the steam-boat piers, near Lon don-bridge. On the afternoon of the 24th of August the complainant was attending to his duty at a ticket-box, when the prisoner put a basket of nuts in the way of the customers, upon which the complainant moved it with his foot, having first asked the prisoner to do so, which ho refused. A struggle ensued, and the complainant was injured for life. Another case of violence is that of John Thomas, who with two other men attacked the pro secutor and robbed him. A further case of violent assault is that of Dennis Macarthy, who is indicted for violently assaulting two young women in the Commercial-read, Stepney. It is a serious case, but the parties were all drunk. A man named William Shaughnessy is charged with feloni ously cutting and wounding his wife in the throat with a razor, with intent to murder her. There was much bru tality about the case, but it is one with which a jury will have little diffiulty in dealing. There are three or four cases of perjury, all of them, curiously enough, having for their defendants persons who have held reputable positions in society. There will not be so many Mint cases as usual . The trial of the persons charged with victimising foreigners will, it is thought, be postponed until the November sessions, as some important evidence from abroad is ex pected. The case of the Earl of Shaftesbury against his late steward, Mr. Walters, will probably be taken on Wed- _ nesday. The Recorder, in his charge to the grand jury, referred to the above cases, and then remitted them to their room to commence their official duties. POLICE INTELLIGENCE,—This Day, MARLBOROUGH-STREET. THE BURGLARY AT THE EARL OF FlFE'S.—Charles Gustaldi, alias Dubois, calling himself a wino merchant, but refusing his address, and Joseph Newman, a cabinet maker, also refusing his address, were charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with burglariously breaking and entering the residence of the Earl of Fife, No. 35, Dover-street, Picca dilly, and stealing a:quantity of jewellery, previously said to bo of the value of £3OO, but now said to be a much larger amount, were again brought up, a fresh charge being preferred against them, that of breaking into the re sidence of the Earl of Eldon, No. 1, Hamilton-place, Piccadilly. Mr. Edward Lewis, of Great Marlborough-stroot, ap peared for the prosecution, and Mr. Hannant, the super intendent of the C division, attended to watch the case on the part of the police. The greatest interest seemed to be felt in the case, the court being much crowded. _ _ Mr. Lewis said his worship would remember that some time since the metropolis was thrown into a state of great excitement owing to a number of burglaries being com mitted at the residences of several noblemen. Superin tendent Hammond, using the greatest discretion, employed Inspector Draper and Sergeant Cole, and the latter, a most expert and active officer, succeeded in capturing the pri soner. He should give some evidence to-day, and then ask for another remand—the case of the Earl of Fifo being completed. Mr. Wolfries, in the service of the Earl of Eldon, was then called, and said that at 12 o'clock on the night of the 3d Oct. he saw the house safely secured. Shortly before 7 the next morning he was called by the police, and found the street door standing partly open. Ho went with the police into the library and found the furniture disturbed. Lydia Fisher, housemaid in the service of the Earl of Eldon, said she went into the library on the 4th October. The drawers were on the tea table. Mr. Farron lives in the house. Tho initials have been picked out, but the marks remain. A scarf produced she believed to be his, as also a silk pocket handkerchief. A card case produced eho believed to be the property of Lady Selina. In answer to Mr. Collins, for the prisoner, the witDoss said she could not say when the articles were last seen safe. In re-examination by Mr. Lewis, the witness said the drawers of Mr. Farren's dressing-room were in confusion. John Brown, coachman to the Countess of Roseberry, 139, Piccadilly, said he was in Piccadilly on the evening of the 2nd Oct., about 7, and saw Gustaldi there, at the end of Hamilton-place. In answer to Mr. Collins, the witness said he had never seen Gustaldi before that evening. Sergeant Kenwood, 16 H, proved that on the morning of the 3rd of October he was in Piccadilly, shortly before one and a little later, and saw Newman each time near Hamilton-place. Police-qonstable 202 0 proved seeing the door of the Earl n in g with the name to prisoner he found th of Eldon's house open—time being a qua r t er b e f ore seven. Sergeant Charles Cole, C division, - who has sho wn the greatest activity throughout the case, prov e d apprehend ingg the prisoner, and afterwards going to 36, Dean-st ree t, and in thee art room es pointed of Dubois on it, that bei n g t h e name he was known by. He had, prior to apprehe ndin g th e prisoner, been watching icl p rodtlee in a a s portmanteau belonging the house iii company o f Webb, 112 C, and had seen them go into the house on different days. lira. Elizabeth IPLaren, 36, Dean-street, Soho, said she knew Gustaldi by the name of George Dubois, and he oc cupied the second floor back room in the house. She had never seen Newman at the house. Henry Dawson, 301. A, said he assisted Sergeant Cole in taking the prisoners into custody. He took Newman, and found on him a bag containing a " jemmy" and other articles. Inspector Walker, of the C division, said that on the morning of the 4th October he went to Hamilton-place, and examined the roof and a window leading to a closet, and found the beading of the window had been broken off, so as to enlarge it as to admit the body of a man passing through. The body of a man had passed through, and the window led to all parts of the house. In the back drawing-room lie found a davenport had been broken, in the centre drawing-room a desk had been broken, and in the dining-room a cellaret and a pickle case. The drawers of a table had been forced open, and the top of a table forced off. In another room a drawer was forced open. Ho found a small padlock of the outer gate had been broken. He found the whole of the marks on the furni ture to correspond with the " jemmy." In answer Mr. Collins the:witness said that the jemmy waedpeculiar one, and he had neverseen one like it before. Henry Morton, 63 L, said he knew the prisoner Gus taldi, and said he was tried at the Surrey Sessions on tho 12th June, 1859, in the name of Durand, for breaking into a jeweller's shop. He pleaded guilty. He was convicted and sentenced to six years' penal servitude. A former con viction at the Central Criminal Court for burglary was preferred against him. Subsequently he had the prisoner in custody, but being unable to attend owing to illness to complete the case against the prisoner, ho was sent back to do the remainder of his sentence, he being out on a ticket of leave. Inspector Draper, C division, said that on the 17th Oc tober he went to 3, Litchfield-street, where Newman re sided, and found a portmanteau (produced) locked, and opened it, and in it found a long rope, a jemmy, small vice, two files, a pair of tweezers, some skeleton keys, picklocks, &c., the usual implements of burglars. The prisoner was remanded for the completion of the depositions. RINGING THE BELL AT CAMBRIDGE HOUSE.—Charles Harvey, a bootmakor, living at 38, Greek-street, Soho, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with unlawfully ringing the door-bell atCambridge,-house, the residence of the latoLord Palmerston. Police-constable Reeves, 41. C, said that about 2 o'clock on Sunday morning he saw the defendant, who was drunk, go up to the door of Cambridge House, Piccadilly, and ring the bell. On asking him what ho wanted, he said he wished to know when Lord Palmerston was going to be buried. He requested the defendant to go away, and as ho would not, and was drunk, ho took him into custody. _ _ The defendant said he wished to know when Lord Pal merston was going to be buried, for a gentleman staying at the White Bear, Piccadilly. He rang the boll twice, and the constable came up, and ho then asked him if he could give him the information he required. The constable told him he had better go away, when up came another con stable and said, "Oh, run him in," and then he was taken to the station. Mr. Tyrwhitt said he did not see why the lodge-keeper should be disturbed at such an hour. Tho defendant said he often weutto Buckingham Palace et to ask for information. Mr. Tyrwhitt fined tho defendant ss. or four days. THAMES. ROBBERY BY A BARNIAN.—John Kennard, aged 17, described as a barman, in the service of Mr. Waymond Holmes, landlord of the Conaught Arms, Hainsby-road, Poplar, was brought before Mr. Paget, charged with stealing large sums of money belonging to his master. Mr. Holmes said the prisoner had been in his service five weeks, and yesterday afternoon, from something that had occurred, ho stopped him as he was leaving the house, and said, " John, sit down ; I want you." The prisoner was very much agitated ; there was guilt in his face at once, and he said, " What is it you want me for ? " to which ho replied " I'll tell you presently." He sent fora police-con stable, and in his presence said to the prisoner, "John, you have money belonging to me in your possession." He said, "No, sir." He told the youth it was no use denying it. "I know you have, and you had bettor speak the truth, it will be much bettor for you." The prisoner then said, " I have," and pulled out a purse from his pocket. It con tained £2 18s. Gd. in silver. Ho said, " That is all you have got." Tho prisoner said, "No, it is not." Ho said, " Where is the other ?" The prisoner said, "In my box upstairs." Ho told the constable to go upstairs with him, and Clark, a police sergeant, No. 40 K, wont up and re turned with a small box, containing 245. in silver. He again said to the prisoner, "That is not all tho money you have taken from me while in my service by a groat deal." The prisoner said, "No, sir; I put £lO of yours in the bank last Monday." He then said, " You have had more money than that since you came into my service ; where's the remainder." The prisoner said he spent in in luxuries of some sort or other. George Clark, a police sergeant, No. 40 K, was called to the Connaught Arms yesterday afternoon. The prosecutor said ho believed the prisoner had stolen a largo sum of money. The witness then confirmed generally tho state ment of the prosecutor, and produced a sayings' bank book, from which it appeared the prisoner had deposited £lO there on Monday last. Mr. Holmes, in answer to a question by Mr. Paget, said that he had missed money daily since the prisoner had been in his service. He had missed upwards of £25. Mr. Paget —£s per week ; if you had not made the dis covery you might have been ruined. The prisoner, who appeared much dejected, said ho had robbed his master. The money in the Post-office Savings Bank, and all the money taken from him and in his box, all bolonged to Mr. Holmes. He hoped he should not do so again. Mr. Paget committed tho prisoner for trial. SOUTHWARK. A DARING CASE OF GAROTTINO AND ROBBERY.—Henry Hill and Georgo French, two young men of ruffianly appear ance, were charged before lir.Woolrych, this day, with tho following assault and robbery. Thomas Brown, the prosecutor, an old man, said that he was a bill hanger, and lived at 10, Brent-street, Borough. On Saturday evening between seven and eight o'clock, ho was going up Lant-street. He had a short time boforo that changed a sovereign, and had about 9s. left. The money was in his right hand side trousers pocket, and he had his hand on it. French came up to him and wanted to get the money out of his hand, which he pulled out of his pocket, and cried loudly " Thieves." Ho then felt another man's hand round his face and neck from the back. At the moment an officer came up and the prisoners were taken into custody. Ho found all the money except 25., and he was quite positive that he had more than 7s. at the time he was attacked. Ho also lost his hat, a pocket handkerchief, and a specification of the work for which he had been paid that evening. He could swear to French, but not to the other prisoner. French said that he was drunk, and that he joined in a row that was going on in Lant-street without knowing what ho was about. Tho prosecutor said that in his opinion the prisoner was perfectly sober. He was quite sure that he lost the 25., and he was not the worse for drink. George Holmes, a detective attached to the South- Eastern Railway, said he was going up the Borough in company with another constable, about a quarter to 8 o'clock yesterday, when he saw the prisoners and two other men following the prosecutor up Lant-street. In conse quence of what he saw he watched them, and when they got about four yards up the street he saw the prosecutor struggling with the four men, while he cried out "Police," "Thieves!" He and the other constable went up to them, and ho took hold of French, while the other constable seized Hill. The prosecutor at the time was insensible. He saw one of the men with his arm round the neck of the prosecutor. The other two men ran away. Britelle, 167 M, corroborated the evidence of the last witness, and said that ho took Hill into custody. It further appeared that the two shillings, the handker chief, and the specification were found on the ground near the spot where the prosecutor was attacked, and were iden tified by him. The prisoners, who steadily denied the charge, wore fully committed for trial. Fall of Five Railway Arches• On Sunday night, about eight o'clock, during the time the rain was falling in torrents and the wind was whistling loudly, the inhabitants of Battersea and Wandsworth were aroused from their usual state of quietude by hearing a tremendous noise, similar to four or five separate severe claps of thunder. For a few minutes speculation was of a varied form—some imagined that a dreadful collision had taken place upon the London, Chatham, and Dover Rail way, and many persons ran out of their houses to render assistance to the supposed ill-fated passengers, when the cause of the alarm was soon apparent. Near Battersea bridge, and close to the last-named line, the contractors for the extension of the Brighton Railway have been turning large brick arches, in order to form the supports of the permanent way. Owing, however, to the great quantity of rain that has fallen during the past few days—more especially on Sunday—it is supposed that the water had penetrated the concrete foundations before the material had obtained that solidity necessary to keep up the weight of the arches ; but one thing is quite certain, that all of a sudden one arch came down with a loud and rumbling noise, and fell almost as flat as a sheet of paper upon the ground. In a minute or less afterwards, another fell in the same way, and a third succeeded, and one on either side followed in a similar way, making, in the whole, five of the massive arches that have been razed to the ground. Fortunately, it being Sunday, none of the mon were at work, consequently no one was injured. The other arches, from the examination made, appear not to have suffered the least from the violence of the heavy rains. NEW ROYALTY THEATRE.—A new comic operetta, entitled, "Felix ; or, The Festival of Roses," will be per formed this evening, for the first time. Felix, Mr. Eliot Galer. VICTOR HUGO (unquestionably one of the greatest French writers of the age), is also, says a Paris letter, one of the most successful in a pecuniary sense. He received 400,000 f. (.£16,000) for "Les lliserables." H e has sold a pros. work, "Les Travailleurs de la Mer," to Lacroix, of Brussels, for £6,000, and five volumes of poems, "Les Chansons des Rues et des Bois," the first of which is announced to appear next week, have been disposed of to the same firm for £B,OOO. Accord ing to the Athenaeum, however, thus within five years Victor Hugo has made £30,000 by his pen—a very hand some sum, but I must say I can hardly understand how such heavy prices can possibly pay the publishers. The Figaro, to which I am indebted fur these details, adds some curious particulars about M. Hugo's mode of composition. It seems that up to this time ho has never allowed a single lino of his writing to go to the printer's. Ho has all his " slips" copied out by his wife or daughter, and forms a kind of autographic museum of the original MSS. of all works. From that rule, however, he has departed, as re gards the new poems, which were jotted down chiefly in pencil on an album ; the slips were tern out of the book and taken directly to the printer's, at Brussels, whore they are being set up under the author's own eye. It is a curious fact that Victor Hugo should labour under the delusion that he has mistaken his vocation, and that as a painter he would have achieved greater fame. The house of Lacroix and Co., of Brussels and Paris, has purchased the right of publication for twelve years for the sum of 40,000 f., or £1,600, 130 T 30 1 150{ i En 4} 361 1224 1 9) 8-4 1051 44 38 5) 4 121& 54 96i 131 401 40 5) 4 103 4 126} 6 i I 5 11C} i i 101 80, / IT [LS. 1032 i 6 34k 1 3i SPORTING NOTES. The Cambridgeshire Stakes, the last of the great autumn handicaps, will be decided to-morrow. The field, in all probability, will be one of the largest that ever contested the race. From recent market operations, it would appear that most of the following will face the starter : Horse. Yrs. st. lb. Jockey. Gladiateur Argonaut Moulsey union Jack John Davis Regalia Bacchus Breadalbane The Duke General Hess a Fantail The Clown Gratitude Claxton Catch-'em-Alive 6 1 Exchequer Soutnise Zambezi Vertugadin Calista gelding... 4 Lord Douglas ... 4 Gontran Lady Bohun Zephyr Count Cavour ... 5 Trincrede Persuasion Met ry Wife _Carrolli Alabama Red Earl Tattoo Hornblower Acolyte Elland King Charming.. 3 Endsleigh Edinburgh Doan Swift Gomera Jupiter Gardevisure Moldavia Provisor Ostreger Custard Castle ... 4 Sister to Drake... 4 Wedding Peal ... 3 Holstein Morris Dancer ... 3 - 5 8 Nu Victory Lady Egidia Gladiateur has occupied the position of first favourite for the last week or two. There is no denying the fact that he is the best three-year-old that has trod the turf for many a year; but, great horse though he be, it is an utter impossibility for him to win with the Welter weight of 9st 121 b. Salpinctes, the winner of the Cesarewitch, has suddenly receded to 100 to 1 offered, without any cause. It is said that the horse has broken down, and that the division are going for Ostregor. lam cre dibly informed that the horse was never better. How ever the owner has scratched him after having served his purpose. Regalia has too much weight, who I ex pect to see beaten by The Duke. Provisor and Garde visure have been the two most steady horses in the market. Ostregor, if better than Salpinctes, must have a chance second to none. Holstein will likelyjturn out the best of Mr. Jackson's lot. Baron Rothschild has four engaged. He will likely run Zephyr and tho Calista gelding. The former carries the same weight as Tomato did last year, when she made such close race of it with Ackworth, just being de feated at the finish by a short head. Sir Joseph Hawley will start Argonaut and Merry Wife for the off chance. The latter was fifth for the Cesarewitch, and there is no better place investment. Custard Castle has been a ruling favourite ever since the weights ap peared, but has now received his quietus, by being sent to the 100 to 1 division. King Charming has 21b. less to carry than he did in his race with Crisis, when he ran him to a head, and must be in the first flight at the finish, if ho does not actually win. The race, in my opinion, will be carried off by one of the following lightly-weighted three-yr-olds, viz., Gardevisure, Provisor, Ostregor, King Charming, and Holstein. To come to a final decision, I shall expect the judge to place— PROVISOR OS TREGOR 2 MERRY WIFE or GARDEVISURE 3 A FRESH MAN. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. NORTHALLERTON RACES—SATURDAT.

A GRATEFUL DONATION.—The lifeboatmen at Caister, near Great Yarmouth, have just sent £lO to the National Lifeboat Institution. These brave men have now been afloat since 1858 in their lifeboat, 23 times in service, and have saved 135 lives from fearful ship wrecks, besides helping to bring four disabled vessels to harbour. Tho lifeboat which has done such noble work is now unfit for further service, and on Wednesday next she is to be replaced by a magnificent new lifeboat, 43 feet long, the gift of the working people of Birmingham to the National Institution. They had previously given the society the expense of the lifeboat at Sutton, on the Lin colnshire coast. A deputation, who expect to be accom panied by the Mayor of Birmingham, will be present at the launch of the Caister lifeboat on Wednesday. THE FOUR BRONZE STATUES UNDER THE DOME OF TIIE NvALIDEs, in Paris, representing Peace, Justice, Prudence, and Charity, which wore melted and sold in 1793, are to be replaced by four statues representing the four Evangelists, each of which is to be 12 feet high. SHOT BY JULIUS CIESAR.—The Surrey Standard says that the unfortunate keeper, named Foster, who was accidentally shot on Wednesday, while pheasant shooting, by Julius Caesar, the celebrated cricketer, died on Thursday. Dr. Balchin and Dr. Parsons made all haste to the spot, but soon found that the wounds were beyond their skill to heal, and that his life was fast ebbing away. Tho poor man's wife and eldest child also arrived, and being still sensible he took his farewell in a manner which all who witnessed can never forget. Julius Caesar is also much to be pitied, for although the circumstance was so purely accidental his peace of mind is wrecked. The deceased leaves a widow and seven children, the eldest 17. THIRD EDITION SUN OFFICE, lIALF-PAST 7 O'CLOCK THE LATE LORD PALMERSTON. Arrival, of. the Body at Cambridgg House 1 .,. (This Evening). • Exactly at 25 minutes to six the great gates of the court-yard of Cambridge House opened for the last time to admit all that remained mortal of Henry John Temple, third Viscount Palmerston. The hearse containing the body of his lordship was transmitted to London by the great north road, and but very few who noticed the sombre carriage on its progress were aware of the illustrious dead it contained, us the general impression was that the Great Northern Railway would have been the route by which the body of the deceased statesman would have been brought to London. As soon as the hearse passed the outer gates of Cambridge I - louse they were immediately closed, and thus but very few were present to witness the solemn and impressive scene. Immediately the hearse drew up at the front entrance of Cain bridge House the coffin was placed upon the shoulders of eight bearers, and the Hon. Evelyn Ashley, his late lordship's private secretary, and the Rev. Henry Sulivan, the only surviving nephew of his lordship came forward to receive the body. By them it was conducted to the great dining-room, and there, amidst the most profound silence, it was placed in the centre of the apartment which, with the exception of a large tray of funeral feathers, and a black cloth on the floor, was extremely devoid of all funereal display. A large black velvet pall was placed half over the crimson velvet cushion, and thiS having been done, the attendants of Mr. Banting, of St. James's street, who has the arrangement of the funeral, withdrew. During the whole of the proceedings, which did not occupy more than about 15 minutes, the most profound silence prevailed. Scarcely a word, • and that not above a whisper, was spoken by any one within the apartment. The funeral is fixed to take place on Friday next, in Westminster Abbey, at one o'clock.
