MONEY MARKET A ND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE, TWELVE O'CLOCK. There is no change of importance to report in the Money Market ; the demand for discount accommo dation is not very active ; and as there is an abun dance of capital on offer, the rates charged for the negotiation of first class paper are unaltered, being 2 2 per cent. There were no gold operations at the Bank of England yesterday. Atlantic and Great : Western Railway debentures remain steady at 29 31, and the Consolidated Mortgage Bonds at 231 241. The directors of the General Credit and Discount Company in their report recommend an interim dividend at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum. The meeting of the London and Brighton Railway Company, to consider the proposed amalgamation with the South-Eastern, was held yesterday. Mr. Laing, M.P., who was in the chair, submitted a motion for confirming the agreement which had been made, and Sir Charles Jackson seconded the resolution. Mr. Samuda moved an amendment ad j ourning the consideration of the question, but was outvoted by a large majority. A poll was de manded, and will commence to-day and continue till Monday. The committee of shareholders of the Mineral Rights Association now report, in reference to their circular of the sth, that they 'have received the directors' reply to the requisition of share holders, in accordance with which they have appointed the 18th inst. for• holding special ge noial meetings called, by the requisitionists. The committee, therefore, request that proxies may be sent to them that they may be lodged with the company two clear days before the meeting. The report of the National Bank states that the profit for the half-year amounts to £101,338, and the actual dividend at the rate of 8 per cent. per annum, and an extra dividend of 10s. per share have been declared, leaving £1,348 to be applied to the reserve, which will then stand at £461,592. It has also been announced that the directors of the Union Bank of Australia Faye determined upon a dividend of £2 2s. 6d. per share, being at the rate of 8/ per cent. The specie movements during the past week have been on a less extensive scale of late ; the imports have amounted to about £163,881, including £6,090 from New York, by ' the Persia, £23,537 by the Weser; £35,000 by the City of . Boston, and £40,000 by the China. The Esther from Mexico bas brought £B,OOO, the William Duther from Australia £13,800, the War Queen from New Zea land £13,800, the Syria from Bombay £4,831, and about - 19,036 in silver has been received from the continent.

MANCHESTER, July 12.—The report of Tuesday's market was that prices had given way on yarns to the 'extent of fully id. per lb. since the previous Tuesday, and we have now to say that the depres sion of the market during the last three days has caused a further decline on home trade yarns of about another halfpenny. The decline on shipping yarns is nearly to the same extent. Sellers are unwilling to give way, but it Oat s be found to.. day that lower prices must be . accepted to make sales. Even at ; the decline, business is on a limited scale.,... The. "cloth market', is quite as inactive as it Was on Monday - _and Tuesday, and the actual transactions have hardly been sufficient to day to afford a test of values... On Tuesday . the de cline was estimated - at 3d. to 6d. per * piece on the shirtings, and lid. on jaconets and light goods for India, within the previous week. Since Tuesday prices have given way to about the same extent as on yarns, but the market is very irregular. There are, for instance, many contracts running in mulls and jaconets, and these light fabrics are not so much affected as some other kinds. Taking another extreme the decline on the best class of goods, such as wide shirtings and figured goods, are is. to is 6d per piece lower during the last fortnight. For other goods generally the decline bears much the same propor tion as that on yarn. The makers of 511 b to 811 b shirtings, printers, and other fabrics are still mostly running their machinery full time, and many of them having exhausted or nearly exhausted their contracts, and being unwilling to accumulate stock, arc dis posed to meet the demand at any reasonable decline consistent with the lower price of cotton. Buyers, however, are not in the market with any orders which are pressing, and their offers are in many cases too low to lead to business. The business of the day, in yarns as well as cloths, has been on a very limited scale. LEICESTER, 12th.—There is not much doing in wools among the staplers ; the supply is heavy, and Yorkshire houses seem indisposed to buy so long as the country fairs show prices to have a lower ten dency. What transactions have taken place have been very restricted, at late or hat dened prices for first-class qualities. In the worsted yarn spinning department there is a fair general trade, but scarcely equal to the average of former years. Prices con tinue firm. Fancy hosiery yarns are again de pressed, the improvement noticed during the past few weeks having fallen off. Dealers are somewhat dispirited at bad debts being too much the order of the day, which shakes confidence throughout the country. The demand for lambswool goods is also somewhat flatter, the push which followed the wool fair having subsided. Warehouses con tinue to hold off purchasing, althOgh from the advanced season it was generally thought they would have tried to buy lower. Shipping orders are very scarce, first-class goods only being required for America, where they can produce lower and medium qualities by their own machinery. The worsted hosiery autumn trade remains active, and notwithstanding that the few weeks have shown a marked improvement, the orders are not of a very numerous or cheerful character for this period, and manufacturers are only making for immediate wants. The cotton hosiery trade is steady, and at Hinckley an increased amount of business is being done. The boot and shoe trade is very active. WILLS AND BEQUESTS. (Front the Illustrated London News.) The will of Sir Thomas Phillips, Knight, Q.C., late of 77, Gloucester-place, Portman-square ; Llanellan House, Abergavenny ; and of the Inner Temple, was proved in the London Court on the 4th instant, by the executors and trustees—William Page Thomas Phillips, Esq., barrister-at law; his nephew ; the Rev.

COURT OF DIVORCE. (Before Sir J. W. Wilde and a Common Jury.) HATTEN v. HATTEN. This was a suit instituted to obtain a judicial separation by the wifo on the ground of cruelty, &c. The cruelty was denied, and provocation alleged. Mr. M. Chambers and Dr. Swabey appeared for the pe titioner, and Dr. Spinks, Q C., and Mr. George Browne for the respondent. It al peared that the parties were married at Deal in February, 1865, the petitioner being a widow with ono Ku aged six years. She had : been the wife of a surgeon in the navy, and had £7O a yerr income, which ceased when she married. The respondent had been in business but had retired to Deal, where he lived with three daughters, who kept his house. With the consent of the petitioner the eldest daughter continued to manage the house. About a month after their marriage her husband b"gan to treat her badly, and she w. s so astonished at the change that she asked Doctor Roberts to come and see her, and ho did so. Soon after he was gone ho began to illtreat the child, In April ono morning, he swore at her, because she would not get up early enough for him. Ile used to swear at the child, and threatened to do for it. Oa one occasion he said he Would throw it out of window. She was so frightened that she sent a note to her sister at Sandown, but the respondent stopped the servant and took it from her, and came with it to petitioner and told her so. They went to London in July. During that visit at dinner one day he took the child up and said that " he would do for it at last." He took the child by the arm and held it up, and :the child cried and she took it from him, and slapped him several times on the face. When they got back to their home, on one occasion when she :want down to draw tho beer in the cellar, peti tioner heard one of the daughters say that she was a pauper, and living on tl - eir mamma's money. She told that to the respondent, and he replied it was quite true what she said. It appeared that the petitioner had been subjected to other acts of violence in the July and August of that year, and at last she left the house and put the matter in the hands of her solicitor. She took proceedings against her husband before the magistrates, and he was bound over to keep the peace. She had not seen her hus band till yesterday since. The case was proceeding when we went to press. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day. MARLBORUGH-STREET. OUTRAGEOUS ASSAULT ON A LIEUTENANT-COLONEL.— Thomas Woolford, a law-writer, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with the following unprovok2d assault on Lieu tenant-Colonel Henry Atkins Bowyer, of the Junior United Service Club:— Colonel Bowyer stated that on his return from Guildhall yesterday evening, and while proceeding up St. Alban's place,,lowards his lodgings, he observed the prisoner mak ing signs . to another man. As soon as the prisoner observed him he' assumed to be very drunk, although there had been nothing before about his appearance indicating that he was so ; and as he was entering his lodgings the prisoner, with out saying a word to him, gave him a violent blow on the mouth, the result of the blow being that he had been unable to eat or sleep. The - prisoner then put himself in a position as if to strike him again, but his servant seized him, and he was taken to the station by a constable. John Mills, servant to the complainant, said he was in the passage of the house, and on 'the door being opened by the colonel the prisoner struck him in the mouth, and he held the prisoner, who was afterwards handed over to a constable. Reuben Blazier, ns C, proved taking the prisoner into custody, and stated that ho could not positively say whether the prisoner was drunk or not. The prisoner said he had nothing to ask the witnesses. Mr. Tyrwhitt said such assaults were becoming very common, and would be dealt with strongly. The prisoner would be committed for two months, with hard labour. THAMES. A WOMAN BEATEL—John Furneaux, a respectable look ing mechanic, was charged with violently assaulting Mar garet Custine, of James-place, Ratcliff. The complainant said she was an " unfortunate," and that she met the pri soner late on Friday night in Pigott-street, Limehouse. He asked her where she was going, to which she made no reply, and he then began to pull her about, and act very improperly towards her. She said the street was not the place for him to behave in that manner, on which he knocked her down. He then left her and returned again and struck her, knocked her down a second time, and kicked her on the forehead. Emma Wood, who was with the last witness, gave similar evidence in confirmation, and said ,the prisoner treated her and her friend with some rum. Thomas Cleli, police constable, No. 355 K, heard cries of police, and took the prisoner into custody. He said the woman Custine had annoyed him, and he hit her. ' The prisoner said he took a little more than ho ought to have done last night, and the woman annoyed him, and wanted him to go home with her. Some fellows pushed him and robbed him of £2 102. The policeman was recalled, and said the prisoner did complain he had lost money ; he did not know haw much. Mr. Paget said if a man was annoyed by a woman in the street he had no right to strike her, but he should call the police and give her into custody. He sentenced tho pri soner to one month's imprisonment and hard labour. The National Rifle Association. WIMBLEDON, Friday Evening. To-day the shooting for the Association Cup continued, but no score was made to surpass that made yesterday by Private Marsh, whose 37 was better than the same number made on the first day by Mr. Ross, of the London Scottish. In the shooting for the first stage Queen's Prize, Captain Wright, of the 30th Cheshire, secured the high score of 52, and was looked upon as safe to win the first place in the preliminary competition ; but it was not long afterwards that Corporal Lake, of the Ist Stafford, made up the same score. The next score to this was 50, made by Private Ryrie, of the 10th Cumberland ; and late in the evening, just before the close of the firing, Lieut. Evans, Ist Notts (Robin Hoods), made up a score of 50 also, This stage of the Queen's Prize closed a few minutes before gunfire, the winner being Capt. Wright, of the 30th Cheshire, who wins £6O and the silver medal. Private James, of the 22d Middlesex,who won this prize last year with 48 points, made 40 to-day. The shooting for this prize has been excellent, taken all together, and the scores of the first 30 and first 60 show an average better than those of former years. The highest scores made for the Albert Prize to day at 200 yards were made by Captain Heaton, adjutant of the 3d Manchester, and Private Martin, of the same corps, who each made five bull's-eyes, scoring 20, the highest possible number. Captain lleaton also put in five bull's-eyes at 600 yards for the extra prizes, 3d series. For the Martin's Cup, Ensign • Gow, of the Queen's (Edinburgh), made a score of 18 at 600 yards range, with an Enfield rifle, firing in the llythe position. The Carbine Priz2s were also shot for to-day by the effective artillery volunteers. The score will be found below. The first stage of the Alexan'dra Prize at 200 yards was decided to-day, there being no fewer than five of the competitors who scored 18, but on counting backwards it was found that Private J. E. Roberts, of the Bristol Rifles, had closed his score with two bull's-eyes, and he was adjudged the winner. The remaining scores were also highly creditable. LIVERPOOL COTTON ARICET—This Day. The market opens quiet, but unchanged, Sales probably 10,000 bales. WASHING TIi3IPIA BAIL—The tat 4 ,oof old Temple Bar was subjected to a thorough washing at two o'clock yesterday morning, the operation being performed by the aid of a couple of steam fire-engines. The venerable structure is tc be decorated with evergreens, in honour Of our visitors. :DESTRUCTIVE THUNDERSTORM—Loss OF LIFE. —A severe thunderstorm, accompanied by heaty Mils of rain, broke over Darlington, Oldicaro, and tire neighbour hood on Wednesday afternoon. • At Shaw Hall a building was struck by lightning and severely damaged, and near the some place a cow and a horse were killed. Two girls, named Shirgley and Walker, wore struck by the eleetric fluid on the road from Sholver. The former died in a short time, and the latter is suffering severely from her iniuries; Several buildings in Oldham itself were more or loss jured by the lightning, and the flood of I . llthr rushing into the underground storerooms did damage to . the extent of £l,OOO. At the western end of the town hardly any rain fell. THE CHEPSTOW OLD BANK. ---.A. second dividend of ls. 6d. in the pound is announced by the trustees of Snead and Co., Chepstow Old Bank. The suspension took place in Juno, 1866, and the liabilities amounted to £56,000, and it was estimated at the time that the estate would realize 10s. in the pound. A dividend of Bs. was paid some months since, and with the ls. Gd, now announced makes a total of 9s. 61 The assets aru not yet all realized, and it is understood that there ill be another small dividend. The trustees are Meelt_ FE, Cure, and iliggiu§. . • • • RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. Rights to the new shares in the Western Railroad were sold at Boston on Wednesday, June 26, for $l6 toll 7 a tenth.' Under the new management of Alvah Crocker, of Fitchburg, the monthly expenses at the Hoosae tun nel have been reduced $20,000. The Portland and Kennebec Railroad, which has been in operation twenty years, declared its first dividend, 3 per cent., on Saturday, June 22. The plan of selling mileage tickets at a reduc tion from regular rates has been adopted by the Rutland and Burlington Railroad. These tickets are good at any time, the conductor punching out only the number of miles travelled on each journey until the entire ticket is consumed. Judge Peckham, of the Supreme Court, has de cided that a railroad company is not responsible for the criminal conduct of their conductors. The de cision was given in a case in which a man brought a suit against the Forty second and Grand-street Railroad for injuries he suffered from bring cut with a knife in the hands of a conductor of a car he was riding in, who was at the time furious from delirium tremens. Drunken and raving conductors would make a new element of annoyance which the rail roads might thus introduce without fear of damage to their pockets. The suggestion will probably not be lost on them. The Pennsylvania Central Railroad Company has purchased the Susquehanna and West Branch Canals. It is the intention of the Company to deepen and improve this line, and use it to assist the railroads in getting the immense lumber trade to market. The lumbermen of Williamsport are hampered, and their business curtailed to some ex tent, in consequence of the inability of the railroads to supply cars enough to ship their lumber. The act of the Pennsylvania Legislature, passed at its last session, authorising the Allegheny Rail road Company to issue additional stock and bonds, and to repeal the act entitled " An act to authorise the Allegheny Valley Railroad Company to mort gage its road and branches to complete the same," was accepted last week by a stock vote of 19,464 to 1,377. THE UNION PACIFIC RAIL ROAD.—The Ellis Loco motive Works at Schenectady now employ 480 men, and turn out a finished locomotive every week, having a contract for twelve from the Union Pacific Railroad Company. Track-laying on the Eastern Division of this road is progressing at the rate of two and one-half miles per day. The road was completed to Fort Harker, and graded fifty miles beyond, on the Ist of Jthae. The business of the road last month was $lOO,OOO, and the earnings for the first week in May $35,000. Rolling stock is being largely increased to meet the public demands, while the work of construction goes on with energy. The citizens of Texas interested in the project are urging the importance of the railroad chartered by the last Legislature of that State connecting Columbus via San Antonia with the Rio Grande. The railroad from Boston via Hartford to Fish kill, N.Y., opposite Newburg, on the Hudson, to connect with the Erie Railroad to and from the West, is soon to be completed. The State of Mas sachusetts has loaned three millions of dollars to the enterprise, which is to be known as the Boston and Erie Railroad. At au election held Jane 3, at the office of the South Side Railroad Company, of Long Island, the following gentlemen were unanimously elected di rectors for the ensuing year, viz. :—Charles Fox, William Floyd Jones, J. Boorman Johnston, Daniel T. Willets, Alex. J. Bergen, Robert 0. Colt, John A. Dix, Alex. M'Cue, William C. R. Ruchmore, Martin Willets, Vandewater Smith, F. B. Baldwin, and John Tappin. At a meeting of the Board sub sequently held, Charles Fox was re-elected Presi dent ; Alexander M'Cue, Secretary ; and William C. Ruchmore, Treasurer. This road is now complete as to its location, and contracts for construction from the East River to Islip have been made. A project of great importance to the business and travelling public, in connection with the Mobile and Ohio Railroad, is reported to be on foot. It contemplates the extension of the track of this road from Columbus, Kentucky (its present terminus), to a point opposite Cairo, oa the south side of the Ohio, and a bridge over the Ohio is even talked of. It is stated that work is to be commenced at both ends simultaneously, and pushed forward as rapidly as possible. This will render railroad communication from Chicago with Memphis, New Orleans, Mobile, and other southern cities continuous, and thus remove a great source of annoyance and delay in the trans portation of passengers and freight. Cairo aspires to become an important railroad centre, being about to vote on a proposition to take $lOO,OOO stock in a railroad projected between that place and Vin cennes. According to a Washington despatch, among the assets turned over by Mr. T. P. May to make good the defalcation in the sub-treasury at New Orleans is the New Orleans and Carrollton Railroad, seven miles in length, which is now operated by horse or mule power. Mr. May had a lease of it for thirty years, at $20,009 per year, with an increase of $5OO each year. Certain friends of General Beauregard now desire to purchase it, and offer $240,000 for it, which the Government declines, and will offer it at public auction soon to the highest bidder. The new assistant-treasurer has not yet perfected his bonds, and Mr. Knox, the treasury agent, is still in charge. ___ THE HUDSON RIVER RAILROAD COMPANY.-At the annual meeting of the stockholders of the Hud son River Railroad Company, held at the office of the company in the City of New York, on Monday, June 10th, 1867, the following named gentlemen were elected directors for the ensuing year : —C. Vanderbilt, W. H. Vanderbilt, Horace E. Clark, Augustus Schell, Jno. M. Tobin, D. Thos. Vail, J. H. Banker, Oliver Charlick, W. A. Kissam, J. Harker, M. H. Sandford; Walter S. Gurnee, and Samuel Barton. The board is the same as last year, with the exception of Messrs. Gurnee and Barton, elected in place of Smith Barker, jun., and John Steward, who resigned in consequence of being ab sent in Europe. Upon the organisation of the board, Cornelius Vanderbilt was re-elected presi dent, Wm. H. Vanderbilt vice-president, and Augustus Schell secretary. ANOTHER RAILROAD ENTERPRISE IN NEW YORK STATE.—It is proposed to build a new railroad from Chatham Four Corners, iu this State, to Benning ton, or North Bennington, Vermont, where it will connect with the Western Vermont and other rail roads, and thus in conjunction with the New York, Harlem and Albany Railroad, a new and very direct line of railroad communication between New York and Montreal (30 miles shorter than any other route). The stock has all been subscribed for, and proposals will at once be advertised for and received for the construction of the new road ; and the work is to be pushed forward with the utmost vigour. The new connecting link will be about fifty miles long. THE MACON AND BRUNSWICK RAILROAD.—The Augusta(Geor . gtia) ChoortklesaiS l--" We are pleased to learn, on what we consider good authority, that the President of the Macon and Brunswick Railroad has succeeded in making arrangements with per sons at the North which will scours the completion of the road hi a very short time. The road al ready finishe I, and the cars running over it d ail y from Macon to Hawkinsville, some 53 miles. o f thg grad ing is also flnitilicd on the lover en line from Brunswick to the " Initial Point" Savannah and Gulf Road, some o n the 47 miles from Brunswick.

On the bringing up of the report of the committee on this bill a discussion took place on various matters of detail, none of which involved any particular point of importance in the bill, and the consideration of the clause conferring the franchise on lodgers. Mr. BOUVERIE made a somewhat lengthy statement, the effect of which was that he considered it inexpedient to confer the franchise on persons in such a position. The result, however, was that the amendment of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, which was merely to clearly define that lodgers should be of full age and subject to no legal incapacity before they should be entitled to vote, was agreed to. Mr. TAYLOR moved an amendment to the clause, the effect of which was to secure the vote to lodgers changing their place of residence. The CHANCELLOR -of the EXCHEQUER said he was of opinion that the proposal would be inexpedient because it went to the extent of giving the vote t) lodgers in sue- cession. The proposed amendment was rejected. Mr. AYRTON moved the following addition to clause s:—" Where, after the 29th day of September next, any premises in any borough are let for a less period than one year, or the rent reserved in respect thereof is made payable at any shorter period than three months, the owner as well as the occupier shall be rated to the relief of the poor, and shall be liable to pay the rates in respect thereof, with out prejudice to any contract between the owner and oc cupier regarding their liability as between themselves to the payment of such rates. The person receiving the rent of any premises from the occupier or occupiers thereof on his own account, or as agent or receiver for any corporation or person under disability interested therein, shall, for the purposes aforesaid be deemed and be rated as the owner of the premises." The hon. gentleman saidj the object in do in g so was to prevent the owner of premises such as he described of making such an arrangement as to letting them for shorter periods than one year, whereby he could utterly set at defiance the rate collector. The adoption of the clause in no way in terfered with the actual exercise of the franchise. Neither would affect the question of composition. The SPEAKER decided that the question could not be put at this stage of the bill," as it would be putting a charge upon curtain persons. It could not be entertained then. It ought to have been l submitted to the com mittee. The consideration of a number of technical and verbal amendments to the bill occupied the attention of the house up to seven o'clock, at which hour the sitting was sus pended. On the reassembling of the house at nine o'clock, the orders first on the paper,were postponed for the purpose of resuming the consideration of the amended Reform BilL Mr. LOWTHER moved to strike out from clause 46 the concluding words, which provided that no person should bo entitled to vote at an election for the city of Oxford or town of Cambridge in respect of the occupation of chambers or premises in any of the colleges or halls of either University. The effect of adopting the amendment would be to give to lodgers in the university—say of Oxford—the privilege of voting for the city of Oxford. Mr. CARDWELL- supported the cause, contending that the university and the town bad always been separate bodies. •'• • Mr. Secretary HARDY was prepared to vote for the amendment, in deference to what ho believed to be the wish of the university. Mr. Neate and Sir R. Palmer spoke in favour of the clause, and Sir H. Heathcote against it. The house having divided, the amendment was carried by 145 to 84. amid Ministerial cheering.
