MONEY XAB, KET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCB, TWELVE O'CLOCK. No perceptible difference has taken place in the discount market. The inquiries are few both at the Bank of England and in Lombard-street, and in all the principal cities of the Continent the same state of affairs exists. There were no gold operations of importance at the Bank yesterday. The silver market continues At the meeting held to-day of the London, Til bury, and Southend Railway the usual accounts for r the half-y ear end i ng the 30th June were presented. -rhe statement furnished by the lessees showed that the receipts amounted to £24,531, and the expenses to £18,618, leaving a balance of . 5 , 9 12. Compared with the correspond ing period of last year there is a decrease of £855 in the receipts and £647 in the expenses, making a total decrease of £1,502. The return of passenger tolls and proportion of goods receipts by the Great Eastern and North London Companies were £9,484, and £670 respectively, which, with the receipt of £24,531, make the gross receipts for the half-year £34,687. During the last few days there has been very little animation exhibited in the foreign and colonial Produce markets. Sugar has barely maintained former values. Superior qualities of coffee have been in fair request, at full values ; while, in rice, fruit, and spices only moderate transactions have been entered into. Tallow has been in very limited demand at slightly reduced rates. Atlantic and Great Western Railway Deben tures remain at 23 25 ; but the Consolidated Mort gage Bonds have recened to 20i 21i. The Rhone has arrived from the West Indies with specie to the amount of £367,526, of which £85,847 is in gold, and £281,679 in silver.

N otwithstanding the extreme dulness of specula ti▪ on and a very limited number of investments, the value of English Funds is well supported; nor is there any apparent reason why it should be other- Vise. Harvest reports are good, each morning mail bringing satisfactory intelligence. The labour supply for agricultural purposes seems to have turned out more favourable than was anticipated, the price of wheat has further declined, the stock of cereals in hand are excessive, and enormous foreign and colonial consignments are expected, and, in fact, already shipped or ready for shipment, money continues superabundant, and all good secu rities—Government especially —are worth more than their present marketable value, with a 2 per cent. Bank minimum, and bills discountable k per cent. elsewhere. Consols, consequently, are firm at 94i for money, 94- for the 10th proximo, and 944 for October. The Government broker has again made a pur chase of £21,000 Reduced Annuities, at the price of 944.

October 57i sti EXECUTION AT NORWICH. Yesterday morning Hubbard Lingley, convicted at the late Norfolk Assizes of the murder of his uncle Benjamin Black, at Barton Beudish, near Downham Market, underwent the extreme penalty of the law in front of Norwich Castle. A crowd, estimated at about 12,000 persons, assembled ; their behaviour was, upon the whole, order). The convict a few days after his condemnation began to make admis sions to the prison chaplain (the Rev. J. L. Brown). As the day fixed for the execution drew nigh these admissions increased, until at last, with the convict's full concurrence, they were reduced into a connected statement by the governor of the gaol, on the under standing that they should not be made public until after the criminal's death. This understanding was strictly adhered to, and it was not until yesterday morning that the prisoner's confession was known to any one besides the chaplain and governor. The pri soner's statement was as follows (a few of the less important passages are omitted) : " I left my house on the morning of the murder about 3 o'clock. Aly wife had no knowledge where I was going. I went to Barton Leys wood, where I found two of my companions, whom I had agreed the night before to meet. I think they had been out shooting in the w ood all night, but I don't k now. My gun was hid up in the straw in the shed. My companions had brought a bottle of gin ; they had drunk their part of the gin, and had left me nearly half a pint, which I drank. We then started to look for pheasants' eggs, and took them out of two nests, 20 in all. We snared one rabbit, and then shot one outside the wood. That must be the shot my uncle heard. Afterwards we all three cam e down the glade way towards the gate, where we found my uncle standing. I have no doubt that he could hear us, but we did not care for his hearing us. He could not see us until we got close to the gate. When we came up he could see we had got some pheasants' eggs, as one of them was carrying the eggs in a handkerchief by his side. My uncle said, ' You master Hubbard, I have suspected you a long while; now, you just been promised a house and home as long as you live ; I will not screen you one bit.' One of my companions said, 'Shoot the -- ; if you don't I will ; give me the gun.' My uncle said, I should think you will never do that, you bloodthirsty rascals,' and began to get himself be hind the clap post of the gate. Seeing that I imme diately clapped my gun to my shoulder and shot him down before he could do so. He twirled partly round from the effect of the shot and fell dead on the spot. My companions then rifled his pockets and took out his money, Bs. 6d. in silver, which they gave to me. There was also a sovereign, which they took. 'said, So you will have more than me,' when they said they would give me 2s. more for my share as soon as they could get it changed. They then tried to get. his watch out of his pocket, but ii stuck at the top, and I advised them to leave it, as the number was so well known, and the watch was well known also by many persOns. I then took the gate off for the purpose of misleading people, and one of the men made the place to appear as if some one had been kneeling, waiting, and fired from there; but this was all done to deceive. . . . lam the real mur derer ; it was my shot, my gun, and my hand which pulled the trigger and caused the death--no one e l s e. . . After the murder I went to the place, laid down, and went to sleep, and so did not hear the first call." A few days since the convict wrote a letter to his wife containing the substance of this confession, and also some good advice with reference to her children and herself. He also sent a becoming message to his aunt, the widow of the murdered man, express ing his deep regret for what he had done. The ser mon preached in the prison chapel on Sunday was fonnded on the text, " The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." The sermon, which had of course a special reference to the prisoner, affected him greatly. On Sunday night he slept little, although he had about a couple of hours of broken slumber. The chaplain arrived at the prison about 6 o'clock yesterday morning, and remained with him in prayer until the time prescribed for the prison ser vice. The Sacrament was administered to the pri soner, who received it devoutly. He then retired to his cell, w h ere h e remained till a quar t er t o 8. Refreshment was offered, but he could only take a cup of t ea . li e was then summoned to a small office where Calcraft was awaiting him ; and he continued to pray pinioned. A procession was all pinioned. yard headed by the ea lane ssh ll ef or t h irffm e t e( i d m m e ira. h J e t h. w eF a s ops b rt e ies i ro n )n g , bearing a black wand, the chaplain following in his robes, and reading part of the service for the dead. The condemned man came next, supported by the governor (Mr. Pinson), and Calcraft and a few of the prison officials brought up the rear. The pri soner took leave of the chaplain, and expressed great hope that the Lord would have mercy on his soul. lie also thanked the governor for his kindness on earth, and expressed a hope that they might meet in heaven. The last fatal preparations were then completed, and after a convulsive struggle the con vict ceased to exist. After hanging the prescribed time, the body was -cut down and buried within the precincts of the prison. Nothing is known of the two men to whom the prisoner refers in his con fession, and this part of his statement is received with some incredulity. SUICIDE AT DURHAM. —On Saturday morning last Mr. Mountford Reginald Dolman, the observer at the Durham University, committed suicide. He was found in the room where the observations are taken, hung by the rope which draws the shutters , over the glass dome, and quite dead. It is stated that for months past he has at times fallen into a desponding mood. A MERCHANT FINED FOR SDIUGGLING.-011 Fri day Mr. Douglas, a commission merchant, of Glasgow, was charged at the Leith Police-court with having concealed 231 b of tobacco and 50 boxes of cigars, weighing 451 b, in all about 681b5., in 6 bales of yarn, which were landed in Leith Dock from the Times steamer, from Antwerp. Five of the bales contained 10 boxes each of cigars, and the other 231 b of tobacco. The seizure was made on the 13th inst. by the Leith Custom-house officials while the goods were undergoing an examinatio,n and tieing landed. The defendant denied all knowledge of the tobacco and cigars, and claimed the bales. Ito produced a letter from the sender of the bales, which made no reference whatever to their containing tobacco and cigars. The penalty of £lOO was imposed. The magistrates offered to mitigate the fine to £5O, and so end the matter, but the defendant preferred to pay the £lOO penalty and appeal to the Board of Cus toms. The bales, valued at upwards of £lOO, are forfeited in the meantime. THE COUNTESS DANNE R.—The name of this lady, the relict of the late King of Denmark, has not been men tioned of late in any foreign correspondence.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day. Iftutnrnous ASSAULT OX A WlFE.—Charles Earnstring, a labouring man, living in Cecil-court, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with violently assaulting his wife, Anna Earnstring. The wife, who appeared in a state of great suffering, was assisted into the witness-box, and gave her evidence seated. She said that she lived at No. 12, Cecil- court, and the prisoner was her husband. In the course of Satur day night the prisoner came home, and while she was un dressed beat her about and kicked her on the back, her sister holding her down while the prisoner iil-used her. She came to the court yesterday, and applied for a warrant, which was granted, and last night the prisoner camp home, burst open the door, and set kicking her about the legs, foot, and loins, saying that he would not leave her till lie had her life. She was very ill, and in great pain. A certificate was banded in to Mr. Tyrwhitt, signed by the house surgeon of the Charing-cross hospital, to the effect that the complab,ant was suffering from severe con tusions of the logs and back. Mr. Tyrwhitt asked the complainant whether the pH soner had ever assaulted her before. Tho complainant said that he had continually beaten her about, but being her husband sho had never appeared against him, and had forgiven him. In March last sho wag in the hospital, the prisoner having knocked out somo of her teeth, and put her thumb out. Mr. Tyrwhitt remarked that the complainant appeared to be very ill. The complainant said it was entirely through the pri soner's ill-usage. She had been married three years, and now the prisoner wanted to leave her for her sister, and her sister had been the cause of unhappiness between them. In answer to th 3 prisoner the complainant said that she had never carried a knife about with her to stab him. James Rogers, a waiter, living at No. 17, Castle-street, Leicester-square, said that hearing cries of "murder" pro ceeding from the house No. 12, Cecil-court, ho went there, and on entering the prisoner's room found him lying on a sofa, and heard him say to the complainant, " You I'll do for you before I have done with you." Police-constable Davidson, 153 C, proved going to the house and bursting the door open and taking the prisoner into custody. The prisoner said to his wife, "If you give me into custudy, I'll swing for you." In answer to • Mr. Tyrwhitt the complainant said the prisoner never gave her more than a shilling a week, and ho took away froth her a shilling she earned on Saturday. Ile could earn a good deal of money if ho Mr. Tyrwhitt remanded the prisoner for a week, at the same time telling him that he might depend upon it that he would get sharp punishment for his wretched and cowardly conduct. The poor woman, whose legs were covered with bruises, was sent to the hospital in a cab. SNARE LlST—This Day. ORDINARY SHARES AND STOCKS.

ROBBERY AT SEA.—William Lynch, a seaman, was brought before Mr. Benson, charged with stealing a watch valued at £5, the property of James Passmore, on board the ship Tynedale, on the high seas.

Mr. Benson committed the prisoner for trial. An Alpine Escape. Mr. A. G. Girdlestone, of Magdalen College, Oxford, in a letter to a contemporary, says : I send you for publication the following account of a very remarkable accident which befel Mr. C. J. Trueman, of Oakwell, and myself yesterday, because our very singular escape, and, already, the most absurd reports of it, extending even to our deaths, are in circulation. We left the Stein Alp yesterday at 1.30 a.m., meaning to come to this place by the Steinlimnir and the Trift Glacier Jocb —two glacier passes— without guides. On reaching the base of the Thalistock Rocks, which have to be mounted in order to avoid the upper ice-fall of the Trift Glacier, we found that our best route was to cross a long bridge of frozen snow and ice connecting the glacier with the rocks. We had to cut steps. along it, and while I was cutting the last, close to the rocks, the whole bridge suddenly gave way. I was instantaneously thrown backwards of the extremity of the brdge r , a down d t more than 20ft. through b between the rocks and h fell against f a lli ng masses tt eei air, and glacier, by bumping ri into the n t headlong, t e t as tilting chasml gti of ice. When all was still I found myself un able to move, under blocks of debris, lying head downwards, while Mr. Truernan lay a little higher up * in a similar position. After resting a little I was able to get my knife and free myself from my havresack, the strap of which was cutting my chest. I next slipped off the rope which was co il e d y down under a round immense me, but b block coat of ie ewbays thehel de elbow and the right pocket. Had the block fallen an inch nearer my right elbow must have been crushed, and we must have lain there and died. Slowly, out of my co a t and got sippedthat we were und er the glacier, and but a narrow band of sk y was to and m by y f feet. degrees, I found visible. Mr. Trueman was lying in pain, his right knee and calf under a very heavy 'inn:lovable block. Recovering my axe, I cut away sufficient ice to free his leg and allow him to slide down into my former position ; but here his knapsack jimmed him against the block of ice, and it was not until I had unfastened it that he could slide out and get on to his legs, when we found that, beyond bruises and abrasions, wo had sustained no serious injury, and had not lost anything, except a knife, guide-book, and a portion of my coat, which I had to cut off and leave in order to carry off the rest. Our first thoughts and words after ascertaining that we were both alive were to thank God for so narrow an escape. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKE7—This Day. Market opens very quiet ; not quotably lower.

Archibald Logan, alias " Captain Logan n ll was indicted for stealing two sealsldn cloaks h value £55 135., the property of Grace LinieraP• The prisoner was a person of very dashing ap pearance, and from the evidence it , appeared that he went to Mr. Lillicrap's place of bufgnms and stated that having lately return ea from India he had been desired to pur chase the seal-skin cloaks, of which was one for Lady Mary Springfield, who was at Windsoi r, and the other for the wife of Major Johnson. 'l' wo cloaks of the value of £55 were entrusted. to the prisoner, on approbation, it being at the same time arranged that if they were approved of and kept, ono would have to be paid on the day following, but from the time the cloaks had left the premises ha I neither seen then nor received the money for either of them, It had since been ascertained that the prisoner lad sold them to a man named Moss Benjamin, -who had since the transaction kept out of the way. The jury found the prisoner guilty, and the judge sentenced him to 10 years' penal servitude. SALES OF BLOOD STOCK. The following valuable blood stock, the property of Mr. R. Bell (now giving up breeding), were disposed of on Monday at Albert Gate by Messrs. Tattersall. The prices realised were in some instance high, but not more so than might have been anticipated from the well-known character of the stud. Mr. Blenkiron, it will be seen, bid largely for several of the lots. s. Plague, by Daniel O'Rourke out of Brown Jug, by Sleight-of-Hand (bred in 1860); covered by Dundee ... ...

ROYAL lionTicuLtußAL GARDENS.--In comme moration of the 49th anniversary of the birth of the late Prince Consort, the Royal Horticultural Gardens, South Kensington. were opened free to the public yesterday, by command of her Majesty. A great number of persons, in cluding various schools, proceeded thither, and military and other bandS were in attendance, and played at intervals during the day. This was the fourth occasion on which the birthday of the founder of these delightful grounds has been celebrated in this manner. The persistent rain that fell during the afternoon, however, spoiled the fete. THE FATE OF DR. LIVINGSTONE.—Letters re ceived from on board her Majesty's ship Highilyer, now stationed near Zanzibar, state that the Sheik of Kielwa had informed the officers that Dr. Livingstone was still alive, although many of his followers had been killed in a fight with the natives. Since this time twelvemonth the High ilyer has been very successful in intercepting the dhows employed in the slave trade on the Mozambique and Zanzibar coast. It has captured in all sixteen of those vessels, containing 574 slaves. FATAL FALL FROM A RAILWAY BRIDGE.—On Sunday night a number of youths wero playing on the Midland Railway Bridge at Nottingham, when one of them, named Nathaniel Needham, who had climbed to the top of the bridge, was seen suddenly to miss his hold and fall on the iron lines below. The poor lad's skull wa , ; smashed in by the violence of the fall. He was instantly taken to the General Hospital, but ho expired a few minutes after admission. MAILS FOR INAGUA AND NASSAU, BAHAMA ISLANDS.—The Government of Bahamas have established a sailing packet between Nassau and Turk's Islands, call ing at Inagua, in connection with the vessel conveying the Turk's Island mails, which sails once a month between Turk's Island and St. Thomas. Correspondence intended for transmission by this route to Inagua or Nassau must be specially addressed "via St. Thomas," and will bo charge able with the same rates of postage as correspondence for Bahamas forwarded in the egular mail via New York. A PROLIFIC Cow.—A farmer of the name of Dewey, residing at Littleport, has a fine cow which this year (on the Ist of July) gave an addition to his stock of two fine calves, the same cow having, on the 31st of July in last year, had three calves at one birth, thus making five (time male and two female) in sothething less than twelve months, all fine thriving animals. A JURY HOOTED.—After the recent trial of Smith for murder at tho Liverpool ..k.ssizss, as the jury left the box a feeling of dissatisfaction with their verdict was ex pressed by an immense number of persons present, who hissed and hooted at them, notwithstanding the.protesta lions of the ushers, whose repeated calls for silence were 9f ne Share COLONIAL GOVERNMENT SECURITIES.

On Sunday Tom Lund was out early with fifteen, but they were only cantering. Elliott only let his lot canter, and Jon Watson's long team only trotted. Lord Zetland's exercised iu the Home Park. Derwent is the only horse engaged this week from here, and he will not run at Derby. MIDDLEHAM. On Sunday morning Fobert's merely walked in the home pasture, whiie Osborne's did nothing beyond walking exercise on the Low Moor. Dawson took his team on to the IFgh Moor, where they went a mile and a half gallop at a gentle pace, with the exception of those who returned from York. Prelate has been sold, and is likely to perform across-country. Fervacques seems to be the cream of our St. Leger lot here, but Fortunio's performance in the Ebor doesn't say a great deal for his chance. T. Masterman's are merely trotting in the home pasture, viz., Fitzroy, Gayous, Honest ish, and Cadley, who have improved considerably by their rest of late. They are likely to be saved for Scotland in the back-end meetings. ILsLET. On Saturday Lord Lyon had a nice gentle canter and a steady sweat of about three miles, as if being prepared for the Doncaster Meeting ; he never went better. Gardevisure did one canter and a steady gallop of a mile and three-quarters, and I never saw the old mare looking or going so well. I feel cer tain there is a good race in her yet over a short course. Rickards again gave Watchman, Tina, Rally, La Sorrentina, Crafty, Cumberland, and Wild Dayrell colt a couple of good steady gallops of a mile and a half, all going free and well. Lowe was busy with his lot very . early, the work done being a repetition of that of the previous day. T. S. Dawson again gave My Love, Mochrie, and Merry Monarch some steady gallop/ of a mile and a half ; whilst the Orlando filly, Rataplan filly, Van Dieman, Broadholm, and Triphthong had a couple of brisk canters of three-quarters of a mile. LAMBO URNE. On Sun , lay morning the majority of the horses were restricted to walking exercise. Marksman cantered the same as on the two previous days, pulling up at the back of the bill. The Sunflower colt had a couple of cauters about three-quarters ters of a mile each. Wetherell cantered Bliss, Lady Diana, Singapore, and Zisca for three-quarters of mile, after which Zisca went a good mile gallop.' Neville cantered Rebecca, and, after walking some little time, sent her a mile gallop at her best pace. MALTON. On account of several of our horses having only returned from York on Friday evening, and the re mainder on the following morning, there was really very little business of importance going forward with the few animals at exercise from the various stables. On Saturday morning Shepherd had only a couple out, Malta and Policy, but they did no thing beyond walking and two or three short canters. I'Anson had but four out, Bab at the Bowster gelding, Marquis gelding, Lapidist's dam filly, and May Morn, all of whom took a couple of canters of a mile each time, and afterwards gal loped steadily about a mile and a quarter, all look ing and going well. The Spring Cottage colt, Be trayal, merely cantered a mile once at a slow pace, after which he took long walking exercise. The next to show were half a dozen from Whitewall. After walking a short time War was sent to lead The Spy and Merry and Wise a couple of smart canters of a mile each, while Southminster led Vis count and Thorsgill similar canters, after which the lot were restricted to long walking exercise, except , the two former. FINDON. Owala Glyudwr walked for two hours, and went a slow gallop of a mile. Sweet Home walked for an hour, and then went home. Souther❑ Cross, Pro serpine, and Thalia, after doing a couple of canters of a mile, went to the far sile of Lea Farm Bottom, and had a gallop of two miles and a quarter up to Muutham Beeches. STOCKBRIDGE. On Monday morning rain commenced to fall, and continued during the early part of the day, conse quently there was nothing doing. Lord Ronald, Ines, Lady Hester, and Roe filly have gone to Derby and Lichfield. Several from here are en gaged at 'Weymouth, viz , Black Prince, Nelly, Harpenden, Lady Ruse, and Minnie IVarren, all of whom are fit to run. EPSOM. On Monday Milly and Browa Jug had two can ters, and then a rattling gallop, both going well. Variation, after cantering, went a rattler with Ebury nearly a mile. Watchbox, Sabreur or Wool wich gelding, Merry Andrew, Nutpecker, and Alarmist did well. Skirmisher . filly and Nannie, after cantering, went a rattling gallop three-quar ters of a mile. Maid of Burghley, Queen Ebba, and another, after cantering, wenta splendid gallop, all going well, specially Maid of Burghley, who improves every day. Mr. Heathcote's exercised in the park. The following left for Canterbury : Monitress, Her Ladyship, Ulan, Nightwatch, Me dicis, Skirmisher filly, and two or three for over night entries. Several also left for Derby, Cecil being of the number. FYFIELD. On Sunday the weather was fine. Alec Taylor was out with his team between six and seven o'clock. He had about 30 out, all of whom cantered up the Clatford Downs and crossed over to the Barton Downs, where they had another canter. The only horses th y ; ed were Pintail, Staghound, Cap tain Kidd, Sa ; f .'l7 ke, Dulcimer, Boanerges, Brother to Knight of t e Garter, Franchise, Citron, and Dulcet. The first named five galloped about a mile and three-quarters and the rest a mile. All the remainder only walked about, after cantering. NEW3IARKET. The business of Monday was not fini.ilied till a late hour, owing to . a heavy fall of rain. Hermit was the last to make his appearance with the rest of his stable companions, Bloss giving him one steady canter, and then a long, steady gallop ; Target, Blinkhoolie, Mail Train, and Edgbaston doing the same. Hayhoe galloped Lothario, Suffolk, Jasper, and two or three more ; and Boyce did the same with Courtmantle and Kingsley. Blanton was doing steady work with Tormentor, Duke of York, Stephen Langton, Demonstration, Cater, and Mel bourne. The same horses mentioned on Saturday from Jos. and M. Dawson's separate stables repeated that day's work, while John Dawson's, Godding's, Price's, and Jenuings's respective teams did a fair amount of work. Several horses left for Yarmouth and other places during the morning per train. LEWES. Yesterday morning (Monday) the following can tered for a mile :—Actan, Pirate Chief, Thermo meter, Violent, Whitworth, and the two year olds, Lictor, Peter, Samson, Nightingale filly, Carbine filly, Emily de Lona colt, and Limner. Afterwards Act t and Pirate Chief were scut a good gallop for about two miles. All the others named above gal loped a mile at a steady pace. —Sportsman. RACING FIXT RCS FOR 1867. AUGUST.
