NONE-Y MARKET AND COMMERCr.,....L tiCTELLIGENCE, TWELVE O'CLOCK. There is no apparent change -in the immediate condition of the Discount Market, yet it is thought that an alteration will take place in the course of a few weeks. Trade requirements are likely to in crease, since it is seen by the daily accounts from almost all the manufacturing districts that orders on home as well as on foreign commission are more numerous than they were a few months ago. Operations in most quarters are being conducted i n a very quiet way, and the prevailing low rates for monetary accommodation fail for the time to induce anything like excessive speculative adven ture. Other reasons may be given for the probability of an upward movement in the rates for bills. Corn and cotton are required in large quantities, and specie will leave the country in payment. Already there is an outflow, as must have been observed by all interested in the subject, from reports of the Bullion-office of the Bank of England. It is true that only £145,000 has left this week at present, but to-day and to-morrow further sums may be despatched, the destination being eastwards. Reasonably assuming that the efflux will continue Owing to the reasons assigned, viz., corn, cotton, and expanding trade, it can scarcely be expected that the existing terms for loans and discounts will be quoted after the lapse of a few weeks. To -day the Money Market is plentifully supplied, and the rates are as low as 4 to 41 per cent., with few borrowers. The traffic for the week ending 18th August, 1866, on the Eastern Bengal Railway has been £2,463, against £1,909 in the corresponding week of 1865. On the lines of the Piedmont Railway the traffic for the week ending 30th September was £17,944, against £24,906 at the corresponding period of 1865, showing a decrease of £6,962. On the rail- Ways of Southern Austria, Lombardy, and Central Italy the receipts for the week ending 30th Septem ber were £66,273 on the South Austrian line against £49,243 at the corresponding week of 1865 ; and on the Lombardo and Central Italy line £19,699 was received against £14,970 at the corresponding period of 1865. With regard to the progress of trade it is satis factory that the protracted strike at Middlesboro' has been checked by the resumption of work at the mills of Messrs. Hopkins, Gilkes, and Co. These little events point not only to the prospect of in creased commerce, but also to the moral force em ployed by the present Government in suppres sing disaffected people who do not consider their own interests. With regard to the mills referred to the Newcastle Chronicle states as follows :—" The half-dozen furnaces are being worked by under-hands, and to-day (Thurs day) several others are to start. The Union men, however, remain unaltered in their resolve to stand out against the proposed reduction of their wages. We regret to add that during Tuesday night a most disgraceful trick was perpetrated by some malicious person. A big piece of wrought iron bad been • placed amongst the machinery, so that when it was put in motion the fly-wheel would break. Suspicion is cast upon the Union men for this. If they are guilty, they will be very much disappointed to learn that their sh ameful scheme to stop the poor under-hands and labourers from earning bread failed, for the masters had given instructions to their workmen to inspect the machinery minutely before it was put in motion, and thus the mischievous piece of it on was discovered and r emoved. At M essrs . B o lckow, Va ug h an , and 3 there is nothing new, neither is there a n y attempt'F: to start the other works in the district ; but t he Public generally still believe that the dispute is virtually at an end. The skilled workmen, how "el., Say they will not return to work unless they get their old wages, and, therefore, the struggle ay be continued for some time yet." In re ference to the affairs of Overend, Gurney, an C 0" an application w a s this day made to Mr. all , the chief clerk to Vice-Chancellor Stuart, by o'nfethe call liquidators, for an o r d er t o en f orce the p a y men t a against twelve shareholders of this com pany, not w i t h standing the order of the Vice-Chan cellor to stay the same as aganst certain share holders until the 3d November. Mr. Denton, on behalf of the liquidators, contended that the Vice- Chanc ellor had l e ft open the right to pursue other s hareho lders and the chief clerk decided that the order as gi . Lewisstaat Stating against the t we l ve mus t b e ma d e . M r . Chan that he should apply to the Vice cellor, as in the former case, on behalf of such of t he twelve who happened to be members of the ..„e nce As sociation, to oppose th e d raw i ng u p o f the order to enforce the payment of the call.

At a meeting held at Hong Kong, Aug. 16 last, the second report of the directors of the Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Company was pre sented, which showed a net balance of $202,39i 86 e. for the half-year ended June 30, after deduct ing all expenses, rebate of interest, amount written off preliminary expenses, &c. From the profits thus shown, the directors recommend a dividend of $5 per share, equivalent to 8 per cent• per annum, which will absorb s l oo,ooo—and of the re smaining amount the directors purpose carrying 6 6,700 to thereserve fund (which will increase it to ' ,1 00,000), an d t h e further balance of $45,696 86c. forwa r d to the credit of the new account in addition to P 5,573 79c. being rebate on bills not due. Within. the Gazette week there has been a large diminution in what used to be termed the portfolio of the Bank of England, i.e., the amount of bills Under discount.

The prince and Princess will not bo present at the concerts on the Monday and Tuesday even ings, but they will attend the morning performance on the Wednesday, and probably also some of ;the other concerts. The Royal visitors will also attend the ball on the Friday evening. The festival promises to be a pecuniary success —the amount received up to yesterday from the sale of tickets being upwards of £3,000. This must be considered a highly satisfactory result, as the sale will continue, of course, during the ousting teu days, ritEFERENCE t3HAREs. Great Eastern, E.

Peel did not order the goods. Mr. Baylis (for the plaintiff)-1 beg to say that I have affidavits in answer to that filed by the baronet. Mr. Osgood (the registrar)—You had better send them in. His Honour then read an affidavit made by the plaintiff yesterday (Thursday), to the effect that in July, 1864, he re ceived an order from John A. Watson, whom he believed to be the agent of the defendant at Geneva, to forward samples of glass to Villa Lammermoor, at Geneva, and that the samples were - duly forwarded as requested. Subse quently, in March, 1866, plaintiff wrote to Watson at Villa Lammermoor, and received for answer that the goods had been duly received. Application had been made on four or five occasions to the defendant, and finally this action was brought. The second affidavit was to the effect that the goods had been forwarded to Watson, who was de scribed as the steward of Sir Robert Peel, at Villa Lammermoor. His Honour said he would grant a new trial on payment of the costs of the day. Freshfield considered that the question of costs should be reserved, as it was evident the summons had not been served on the defendant. It was well known that at the time of the service nearly all the members of Parliament were out of town, and at that time Sir Robert Peel was in Paris. His Honour—The summons was left in accordance with the terms of the act of Parliament. Mr. Freshfield—The house was shut up. His Honour—The summ k ons was delivered to a man who is described as a person above 16 years of age. Plain tiff will be entitled to call the officer of the Westminster County Court to prove the service. Still as the question was raised, the costs would be reserved until the hearing of the new cause. Mr. Baylis—l would ask your Honour to order the at tendance of Sir Robert Peel at the next hearing. His Honour—l have no power to do so. You must sub poena Sir Robert Peel in the ordinary manner. Mr. Baylis—We have had some difficulty in serving the defendant. Mr. Freshfield—That is not true. His Honour—l have granted a new trial upon the merits, reserving the question of costs. POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day. BOW-STREET. A STRANGE VISITOR. —A peculiar-looking individual, who refused to give either name or address, was placed at the bar charged with assaulting Alfred Clench, a cab man, by first kicking and striking him, and afterwards presenting a pistol at him. Clench said he resided in New Church-court, Strand, and about half-past 7la st evening he heard some one knocking at his room door, and on openingit he found the prisoner in the passage. He made a rush at him (witness) and seized him by the throat, when a violent struggle ensued, during which the prisoner kicked and hit him in the face. The prisoner said he had called to see a Mr. Wilson, but when he (witness) told him that was not his name he went away, but returned in about a quarter of an hour armed with a revolver, which he presented at witness, and swore he would shoot him. He (witness) seized the pistol, and succeeded in taking it from the pri soner, but on examination he found it was not loaded. He then put the prisoner out of the house, but he con-) tinued his annoyance for so long a time that he (witness was compelled to send fora police-constable, and on the prisoner becoming aware of what he had done, he took to' his heels and ran off at the top of his speed, but he was ultimately stopped and taken into custody. Police-constable Leeman, 157 F, said he was on duty in the Strand last evening, and was called to New Church court to remove the prisoner, who was drunk. He refused to give his address, or to offer any explanation of his strange conduct, and as he refused to desist from creating a dis turbance he took him into custody. The Magistrate asked the prisoner what he had to say in answer to the charge ? The prisoner, in reply, said he had nothing to say. He did not take the pistol to do any harm to the complainant, it was out of rer, air, and he was going to have it mended. The Magistrate told the prisoner he should not lot him go until he had caused some inquiry to be made about him, and for that purpose ho should remand him to enable the police to do so. MANSION HOUSE. WHOLESALE ROBBERY.—W. Young was brought up on remand, charged with stealing various articles, tho pro perty of Mr. Block, hardware-dealer, Houndsditeh. In the early part of last week the prisoner, who was a custo mer, came to the shop of Mr. Block and purchased some• waiters. Tho shopman noticed him throw a rug which he throw over some things which were lying on the counter He followed him as he was leaving the shop, and, lifting up the rug, found the knives and corkscrews under it The prisoner said he had taken them by mistake ; and on being told that he would give him in charge the prisoner begged to be forgiven, stating That it was his first offence. He gave him into charge of apoliceman, and they both went with him to his lodgings at Penge, Surrey, where a considerable quantity of the same description of property was discovered, a portion of which was identified as belonging to Mr. Block, and since the prisoner's apprehension the remainder of the property has been identified as belonging to different establishments at Southwark and other parts of the metro polis. Mr. Beard attended for the prisoner, and cross-examined one of the witnesses, but could not shake his evidence. The prisoner was remanded till Thursday. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. SHOPLIFTING. —Two young women, named Maria Martin and Jane Brown, charged with shoplifting, were brought up for final examination. The prisoners were seen to leave the shop of Mr. Hooper, draper, of No. 52, Oxford-street, in a hurried manner by police-constable 733 A, and as he suspected something was wrong he followed them into Berners-street, and asked Martin what she had under her cloak, he having previously seen the prisoners examining something. Martin took from under her cloak a dress piece, and the constable then took the prisoners to the police-station, where upon them and near where they had been standing a new pair of boots, a pair of slippers, and about a dozen pairs of socks, all the articles being new, were found. On being asked their addresses one of the prisoners said she lived in Bristol, while the other stated that she lived in Buckinghamshire. Walter Davis, assistant to Mr. Hooper, identified the dress piece as the property of his employer. A constable having proved that Brown had been twice sentenced to penal servitude, and that Martin had been twice convicted—once in a police-court and once at the sessions—and the socks having been identified by Mr. Samuel Denny, hosier, of 59, High-street, St. Giles's, Mr. Knox committed the prisoners for trial. WESTMINSTER •. CRUEL HUSBANDS AND THEIR FAMILIES. —Joseph Good child, a labourer, was chargod with violently assaulting his wifo. Complainant, a very creditable, hard-working-looking woman, said that she was continually being ill-used by her husband. On Saturday night, while she was getting pro vision for the Sunday, defendant went out to a publichouse opposite in Eden-place, Chelsea, and soon after was engaged in a fight with another man. Complainant want out ands brought him away, and when he got home he said that a he could not have his revenge upon the man he would upon her, and immediately set to and beat her about the face without the least provocation. Mr. Selfe—Have you ever complained of him here be fore _ _ Complainant—This is the third time I have complained, but the first time he has come before you. Mr. Selfe—Have you any family ? Complainant —Four children ; and he broke up all my little home excepting two or three things. Defendant—lt is all through her friends. She lodged in her mother's house. Her brother-in-law struck me. I had been drinking. Mr. Selfe—lf I send your husband to prison, Mrs. Good child, what will become of your children ?—that's the question. Complainant—l must work for them, as I have had to do before. Mr. Selfe— Then he is committed for one month, and must enter into recognisances for six months. FACTORY ACTS.—The inspectors of factories, Mr. Alexander. Redgrave and Mr. Robert Baker, in their last half-yearly governmental report, speak very favourably of the continued and ready observance of the factory regula tions in the various kinds of works now under their inspec tion. "We cannot," they say, addressing the Home Secre tary, " express to you too strongly our sense of the vast benefit recently conferred upon the operatives by the Fac tory Acts Extension Act of 1864, and our earnest hope that other employments, of which the evils and hindrances to moral and social progress have been so ably reported by the Children's Employment Commissioners, may, as soon as possible, be brought under the influence of factory re gulations." Mr. George Peabody some time since offered to pay for the erection of a Congregational Church at George town, Massachusetts, as a memorial to his mother, and was lately present at its dedication. fie has now offered to erect a library building for the town and stock it with books for the use of the pooplo. His first appropriation for this is $12,000, SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. HEREFORD RACES-THURSDAY. The TRIAL.

Nov. 15 The Earl of Strathmore (says the Dundee Ad vertiser) since his succession to his estates has won "golden opinions" in Forfarshire. His lordship has made an allowance to each tenant on his property equal to one half of his losses from the cattle plague, which, on account of its extraordinary devastations in Strathmore, involved a largo sum. As several farms on the estate wore lot at a time when agricultural prospects appeared much brighter than they aro now, his lordship has himself voluntarily offered to reduce the rents on NM of the larms,. NOTES FROM TRAINING DISTRICTS. (THIS DAY.) NEWMARKET. Though a great deal of rain has fallen the exercise grounds are in capital order, and trainers were again very active to-day, particularly with their Cambridgeshire and Criterion horses. Amongst the former were Broomielaw, Out and Outer, Vespasian, the Scheldt and Mineral, from Mr. Bloss's ; Duke of York and Harefield, from Blanton's ; Peeress, from R. Boyce's ; Robin Hood, from Cotton's, Ostregorand Actrea, from Drewett's ; Sultan, of the French division ; Saladin and Jollity, from Godding's ; Nu, Saccha rometer, and Godmersham, from Goodwin's : Medina, from Chris. Green's; Flueretto and Puebla, from Jennings's ; Dalesman, Tomahawk, and Guinivere, from the senior Hayhoe's ; Ambition, from the younger Hay hoe's ; Claxton, from Charles Marson's ; Peon, Paris, and Il Re Galantuo:no from Pryor's ; Mount Palatine from John Da , wson's ; Caithness and Chepstow from Peter Prices; Roland from Charles Rayners ; Lightning and Countersign from Tom Stephenson's ; Pepper's Ghost from Alex. Taylor's ; and Lozenge from Watson's. Amongst the Criterion horses working wo noticed Stolen Kisses, Lochaber, Pedagogue, Blinkoolio, The Hermit, Star of India, Suunylocks, Van Amburgh, The Teddington's dam colt, Imporator, Cerf Volante, Trocadero, Dragon, Flamingo, Friponnier, Janne, Chignon, Cincinnati colt and the Jewel ; all of whom were in fair work, but The Hermit, The Dragon, and Fripounier were doing tie most, and are the cream of the role. In fact ono of these are sure to win the Criterion, de spite Taraban's high private trial, and possibly it will be Dragon, as he is more fit than the Hermit, and Friponnier has a very uncertain temper. Louisa again led Lozenge a mile and a half, and the latter goes uncommonly free and strong. Ostregor took Actaaa nearly a mile and three-quarters, and the mare was never better in her life ; our professionals are very fond of her chance. The Chap lin-Machell lot severally galloped over a mile and a quarter, but not very fast. Caithness and Chepstow had a mile and a half fast gallop, and the latter showed no temper, but wont as quiet as a lamb, yet as strong as a lion. No fault can be found either with his action, pace, or condition. Saladin and Jollity each did over a mile and a half. Ambition galloped a mile and a quarter, very fast. Tour malin gave the Baron's trio a mile and three-quarters, smartly, and Tomahawk moved beautifully. Paris and Peon went nearly a mile and a quarter at a clipping pace, but the latter is not near ripe yet. Jennings gave Fleu rette a rattling mile and a half spin. Sultan was spinning along splendidly. We also noted Gladiateur,in good work ; as well as Regalia, Stradbroke, Breeze, Magpie, Hippie, Jasper, Julius, Bombastes, Pericles, Littleport, Goodfellow, Lytham, Chapel Royal, Othello, Rector, Python, the Amanda colt, Delium, Seringapatam, and several others. Hickman has just received an allotment of promising yaarlings. LITTLETON. ' Proserpine has had a spin with Abergeldie and Salpinetes, at the Cambridgeshire weights, and won. They finished as enumerated. The two first, however, will both run, and may leave here for Newmarket early to-morrow. ILL MINES.

Lund's horses galloped two miles. Roderick Random was in slow work. TEE INSURRECrioa IN CRETE. --41. - The llfoniteur du Soir gives the following news from Crete, which, while not confirming the asser tion that the insurgents have accepted an amnesty, clashes considerably with the other news that they have resources which they mean to use for carrying on the war for months to come. The events in Crete seem to be entering on a pa cific phase. In the face of the difficulties which recently arose the Emperor's Government remained faithful to that policy of conservatism and progress which it has constantly followed in the East. The Cretans represented their grievances to the Sultan. The French ambassador at Constantinople recom mended the Porte to take them into its equitable consideration, and used all his influence in support of the resolution ultimately taken—to send a com missioner to Crete, of sufficient personal considera tion, and furnished with sufficient powers to mediate with effect, while at the same time our consul at Canea used language calculated to dispel popular illusions. But the impatient and uncompromising spirits who wished to make the crisis au occasion for an appeal to arms would not wait the arrival of the Ottoman envoy, and got up arising on the day before he landed. Blood flowed, and the movement— encouraged by manifestations in. the Archipelago and in Greece itself assumed in the begin ning an alarming character. The new French Minister of Foreign Affairs having been requested by King George to visit Athens on his way from the East did all that he could to allay the irritation. Penetrated with the benevolent sentiments towards Greece which inspire the French Government, the Marquis de Moustier expressed his views to the Hellenic Cabinet with the most friendly frankness. These counsels were accepted with gratitude. The agitation has now lost its gravity in the islands and in the Hellenic provinces bordering upon Crete, and the Cretans themselves appear to be less indisposed than heretofore to respond to the conciliatory appeal made to them by the Porte. The Ottoman Go vernmet is moreover at this moment endeavouring to solve pending questions concerning the interests of the Christians. The affair of the Principalities approaches. a settlement, and the election of the foreign prince called upon to govern them will very shortly be confirmed by the Porte. The French Government will thus witness the realisation of a combination which it was the first to suggest in 1855 ; which it subsequently favoured during the negotiations in Paris in 1858, and which it again supported in the recent conferences at the com mencement of the present year. MARKE T his Day. MARK LANL. The supply of English wheat on sale here to-day was very moderate. The trade was firm, at the full prices of Monday, and a clearance was effected. The market was moderately supplied with foreign wheat. There was a steady demand for most qualities, and the quotations ruled firm. Floating cargoes of grain were in stoady request, at ful currencies. The barley ruled firm, at full quotations; but inferior qualities were a dull inquiry, at late rates. Malt was steady, at full quotations. Oats were in fair supply and steady request, at fully late rates. Beans and peas moved off steadily at full prices. There was a fair demand for flour, at quite late rates. SHIP ARRIVALS THIS WEEK. Wheat. Barley. Malt. Oats. Flour.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET POLICE COURT. This afternoon Young, who stands charged with causing the death of Edmund Wilmot, in a pugilistic encounter, which took place at the Queen's Head, Great Windmill street, on the 9th instant, and William Shaw, the landlord of the house, Edward Donelly, Thomas Paws, James Evans, Flynn, and Goode, who were also charged with aiding and assisting, were placed before. Mr. Knox for further examination. Inspector Silverton, of the C division of police, informed the magistrate that he had. not yet succeeded in arresting the fourth man, who it was proved was acting in the ring during the match, and therefore he had to ask for a fur ther remand. Flynn had admitted that he acted as referee. Mr. Avery, the house surgeon, at Charing-cross Hos pital, was in attendance, but he was not examined. Mr. Knox thought it better that every exertion should be made to have the whole of the persons charged present before the matter was further proceeded with, and there fore he at once remanded them for a week. The reeognisan;e7ol;;l7Of the defendants having been renewed, they were admitted to bail. LONDON GAZETTE.—This Evening. --+ WAR-OFFICE, PALL-MALL, OcT. 19.

(Lord Ivory), which took place yesterday, at his residence iu Ainslie-place, in his 75th year. The late hour at which we receive the announcement permits us only, in the meantime, briefly to state that the deceased gentleman was born in 1792, and admitted to the Scotch bar in 1816. After having served on the Scottish Municipal Commission, and held in turn the Sheriffships of Bute and Caithness, he became Solicitor -General for Scotland in 1839. In 1840 he was made one of the senators of the College of Justice—assuming the courtesy title of Lord Ivory; and iu 1849 he was further appointed one of the Lords of Justiciary. He retired from the Bench in 1862.—Scotsman.
