The quotation of gold at farts is about at par, and the short exchange on Loudon is 2.4. 15c. per Li sterling. On comparing these rates with the English Mint price k t tie. laid. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is about 1...0th per cent. dearer in Paris than in Lon don. rhe courfe of exchanze at New York on London for bills at 60 dsys' sight is about iO9 pei• cent. At this rate there is no profit on the importation of gold from the United States. ADVEUTISEMENT.I —Holloway's he extraordi nary range of ten‘peraturo attending the early autumn is extremely trying to the delicate chested, the weak, and the nervous. All troubled by these afflictions should resolve to resort to this strengthening and regulating medicine immediately they perceive in themselves discomfort, or that feeling of restlessness which betokens disordered digestion, and defective secretion of bile. One of Hollo way's pills taken about noon, and followed at bed time by a dose sufficiently large to act aperiently, will speedily recruit the fatuity functions and restore order throughout the whole system. A treatment so safe in operation, and so successful in result, should be known and practised, when from colds and sundry other causes disease is attempting to gain a vexatious footing.

PENL4N COMMISSION AT MANCHESTER 'I he prisoners were brought to the Court to-day under the usual military escort. The Judges took their seats at nine o'clock, and the prisoners Gould, Allen, Larkin, Macguire, and Shore were placed in the dock. John Knowles, a grocer, living close to the scene of the affray, was thefirst witness called. lie repeated the evidence he gave at the police court, but in his cress-examination by Mr. Digby Seymour he posi tively denied that he had ever said he would like to see a Fenian hanged. William Hughes, a lad 18 years of age, who gave a detailed narrative of the whole scene, was cross examined by Mr. Digby Seymour, and so pre varicated that his evidence will go for little or nothing. BRUTAL MURDER AT LAMBETH. This morning between six and seven o'clock the body of a male child, apparently a week old, was discovered by a police-constable brutally murdered in North-street, Paradise-row, Lambeth. It ap pears that as a police-constable, named Jas.Walters, 134 L, was proceeding through the above-mentioned locality, his attention was drawn to a paper parcel lying on a door-step, near Hodges' Distillery. Having a light he turned it on, and found it to be a bundle smeared with blood. He raised it, and finding it somewhat weighty, opened it and saw the body of a child with its skull frightfully fractured, and its face smashed in. The body was removed to the dead-house, and awaits a coroner's inquest. POLICE IN T.ELLIGENCE—This Day, MARLBORO UGH-S MEET. OUTRAGWOUS CONDUCT.—George Fenuing, a ser vant at No. 10, York-street, St. Jamos's, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt, as follows : Police-constable Dade, 223 C, said—About a ("limier to one this morning I was in Jermyn-street, and saw the prisoner trying to enter a refreshment house, and on the waiter refusing to allow him to do so he struck him. I asked the pa ironer, who was making a great disturbance, to go away, when he said that he would not stir a step for such a as me, and struck a gentleman who expostulated with him on his conduct, and on my attempting to remove him, he struck me iu the face and kicked me on my legs, which are now very sore. I called a cabman to my assistance, the prisoner behaving in a very violent manner, when he kicked the cab man ou the knee, and got me down and kicked me in the mouth, and it took four of us to get him to the station. Prisoner—Did you not strike me ? The Constable—No, I did not. Mr. Tyrwhitt—Was the prisoner drunk ? The Constable—lie was. George Hopkins, a cab driver, badge 12,758, said —I was standing with my cab in Jermyn-street,' about one this morning, when the constable called me to assist him. On my going up I found the pri soner behaving in a very violent manner, and on my taking hold of the prisoner he kicked me on the knee. The prisoner was drunk. The Prisoner said-1 had had too much to drink, but nothing to eat, and I went to the refresh ment house to get something to eat, but I do not remember anything that afterwards occurred. Mr. Tyrwhitt—lt is impossible to overlook this series of assaults, and it is a lucky thing for the prisoner that the others assaulted do not appear. I shall fine you 40s. or a month for the assault on the constable, and 10s. or seven days for that on the cabman.. .3.I.4RKETS—(This Day.) MARK LANE. Fresh up to cur market to-day the arrivals of wheat from Essex and Kent have only been moderate, but in fair condition. The demand for both red and white qualities was far from active, but factors were firm in demanding the advance of Monday last. In foreign wheat—the show of which was rather eaten• sive—a li►nited business was concluded at fully that day's currency. Both English and foreign barley sold steadily at very full prices. Floating cargoes of grain on passage and for shipment have been in request at improving rates. In tho malt trade no alteration has taken place. Tho supply was extensive. _ Thorn was a good show of oats on tho stands, and sound corn moved off steadily at about Monday's prices. Beans and peas commanded late rates, but there was little inquiry. Maize was held for previous terms. Linseed and rapeseed continue firm in price, but all agricultural seeds were a slow sale. In cakes very little was doing. The flour trade was steady, and values were firmly maintainel. AIRIYALB THIS 'MOM. Wheat. Barley. Malt. Oats. Flour.

Owing to the great demand for tickets the largest public "milling in the to - .vu was engaged for the occasion, an 1 nearly 1,300 gmtlemen sat down to dinner, several hundred: more who dc,ired to be pre &Alt having been unable to procure admission. A gallery at the lower end of the hall was specially erected for the aceounnodatiou of about 120 of whom, including Mrs. Disraeli, were present. The Corn Exchange, usually a dull building, was bril liantly- decorated for the occasion. At the upper end the walls exhibited a heraldic combination contain ing in the centre the Royal arms, in the Scottish setting, with the armorial distinctions wreathed on either side of Lord Derby and Mr. Disraeli. Above was a riband with the words " Welcome to the Chan cellor of the Exchequer," and below a scroll bearing the words "Success to Lord Derby's Ministry." From the cornice of the clerestory windows were suspended shields with the armorial devices and mottoes of the whole Cabinet; and above these were hung particoloured banuerets. The elevated tables of the chairman and vice-chairman were ranged on the east side of the hall, with cross tables between. The chair was occupied by Sir W. S. Maxwell, M.P., and the vice chair by the Right Hon. R. N. Hamilton. The Earl of Strathmore, Sir Jas. Camp bell, Lord Garlies, Mr. Duudas, Major Bruce, M.P., and Mr. Lawson, late Lord Provost, officiated as croupiers. The company also included the Duke of Buccleuch, Duko of Montrose, Lord J. Manners, M.P., Rear-Admiral Sir J. C. D. Hay, M.P., Sir G. Montgomery, M.P., the Lord Advocate, the Soli citor-General of Scotland, the Earl of Dalkeith, M.P., Lord H. G. Lennox, M.P., Major Walker, M.P., Mr. B. Cochrane, M.P., and a large represen tation of the Scottish peerage, gentry, and clergy. Although the great bulk of the c,Aupany belonged to the Conservative party, a considerable number of gentlemen were present on purely complimentary grounds. After the loyal and patriotic toasts, the CHAIR MAN gave "The Church of Scotland," for which the Rev. JAMES GRANT, D.C.L., responded. The Cli-kIRMAN proposed the toast of the evening —" The health of Mr. Disraeli, her Majesty's Chan cellor of the Exchequer." (Loud and general cheer ing.) Having eulogised the distinguished services rendered to the country, he remarked that the last and greatest of them was the passing of the recent Reform Bill--a work the successful accomplishment of which was due to the energy, patience, tact, and genius of the right hon. gentleman himself. Ile ex pressed his own gratitude to Mr. Disraeli for the course he had taken and for the sacrifices which he had made in what am:muted virtually to the recon struction of a great party. Until Reform was un dertaken by the Conservatives the question was re garded as a joke; but, feeling that the just claim and pretensions of the people ought no longer to be disregarded, the Conservative party had taken up the matter, and the result was the passing of a bill, which, being based upon a sound and intelligible principle, had, he hoped, settled the question for Many years to come. (Cheers.) Tracing the pro gregs of the Reform question since 1832, he (the chairman) pointed out the trifling and insincere manner in which he said it had been dealt with by the Liberal party, and he concluded by expressing a hope that the Scotch measure of next session would be dealt with in the calm, candid, and states man-like spirit which had distinguished the English Bill of last session. lle gave Mr. Disraeli a cordial, welcome to Scotland, and expressed a hope that he would long fill the place he now occupied in the confidence of the Queen and the counsels of the nation. (The toast was drunk with great en thusiasm.) Mr. DISRAELI, when the cheering with which he was received had subsided, said—Mr. Chairman, my lords, and gentlemen, I know nothing more gratifying iu the life of a public man—nothing in its toil and its asperity more satisfactory and sooth ing than the expression of sympathy from any body of his countrymen. (Cheers.) Nor is that gratification diminished if that expression comes from those who are not connected with him by any local seutimen t, because we know how much we may value the affec tionate expression of the kind feeling of our friends; they are apt to be partial in their estimate. I can not express what my feelings are at this moment, greeted by this great assembly with so :much cor diality, distinguished as it is by those who are ex alted in rank, exalted in character, exalted in in telligence, and representing all classes of the com munity—(cheers)—and that, too, in the fair capital of a famous nation, united to England, but on equal terms, and by whose blended influence we have since that union consummated some of the greatest feats of British valour and achieved some of the most brilliant results of British genius, (Cheers.) Now, thanking you, Mr. Chairman and gentlemen, for the too kind manner in which you introduced the consideration of my name to this assembly, I can not for a moment forget that it is chiefly to be attri buted to the passing of a memorable measure which has distinguished the present session of Parliament, and with which I have been in some measure con nected. (Cheers.) I am glad to hear that the cha racter of that measure and its consummation have been received with favour and confidence in the city of Edinburgh—(cheers)—and the more so because I might have been deceived by some expressions which had reached me before I visited the country, and supposed that a different opinion both as to the character of the measure and the character of those who are, responsible for it prevailed in this city. (Hear, hear.) I heard, indeed, or read very recently, and the words came from a per son of considerable position, if he were alone the representative of this great city, but still more so as one who has held very high office connected with the administration of the kingdom of Scotland —I heard that we had carried a measure not entitled to such a distinction as that for which the Whig party had toiled since the time when in the year 1793 Lord Grey had been defeated by the machinations of Mr. Pitt. It is important, because it is in another form A revival of the old political dogma, that upon the most important of political subjects—viz., the ques tion how power should be distributed in a State — one of the great historical parties is to be forbidden from ever touching it. (Cheers.) If we are to go to the origin of the question since the constitution of the country was settled on its present basis, it is purely and entirely a Tory question. The question of Parliamentary Reform was first introduced to public notice by the great statesmen flourishing at the beginning of the 16th century. Whatever their motives may have been, the fact still remains—the great Tory leaders of that day, no doubt, were in a minority in the House of Commons, and were anxi ous to alter the principles of the representation of the country. Motions for shortening the duration of Parliaments, for extending the suffrage, for secret voting, were introduced ; and we aro told that it was by the machinations of Mr. Pitt that the Whigs have been perpetually baffled in their desire to carry household suffrage, and have been deprived of their rightful heritage by the ma noeuvres of the Govern ment of Lord Derby. Allow me to say that the great leaders at the commencement of the 18th century who brought forward these measures for Parliamen tary Reform, and who vindicated these measures, were formed of a very powerful and intelligent oli garchy, and no doubt for many y ears those opinions were in abeyance. But the time came at a moment of public calamity, when the country began to doubt whether it was wise to entrust to au °lig - achy the most considerable portion of the power of the State, or whether we should trust inure to the power of the sovereign and independence of the nation. When these opinions became prevalent, shortly after the American war, a man, as alway s happens, appeared to advocate these opinions ; and who was that man ? Why, it was a young statesman who had formed his mind by studying the conduct of the great states men of the 18th century. lie gave up his time—for we have it upon record he gave up his time by day and by night—to the study of their lives ; he adopted all their leading principles—the opinions he found in the treaty of Utrecht— w h i ch would have given us all the advantages of free trade, now so much vaunted; a century beforehand he found those principles con tained the principle of religious tolerance an d the priu elide of Parliamentary rekifm, and he advocated it as a means by which he alone could control the oligarchy which then prevailed. Now, who was that statesman ? It was the son of Chatham-- (cheers)—that very Mr. Pitt who, as we arc now told, by his machinations prevented Lord Grey, and for 70 years has prevented the Whig party, front • conferring upon the English people the boon and the advantage of the household franchise. (Cheers and. laughter.) My lords and gentlemen, no doubt in 1832 Lord Grey was perfectly entitled, front his high character and front his politic it conduct, to take the line which he did take. Lord Grey had fairly earned the leadership upon that question of Parliamentary Reform; but when Lord Grey formed his Government he never pretended that in the policy which he recommended he was recommend ing a policy peculiar to the Whig party ; on the contrary, he said from the first that it was impossible for him to form a Government except upon a very Woad basis. He appealed successfully to the friend ship of Mr. Canning, but that was not enough. He applied to the Duke of Richmond, the father of ono of my colleagues, to form one of his Ministry, and he did so. Had he not done so I very much doubt whether Lord Grey's Cabinet could have been estab lished ; therefore I say nothing could be more idle than the pretence that we invaded the band to which we had no right of approach, and that our political opponents had a vested interest in the question of Parliamentary Reform ; that for 70 years they had been vainly trying to confer the boon of household suffrage on the people of England ; but that we have come forward in a manner most unauthorised, at the last moment, claiming a position to which we were not entitled. When the Reform Bill of 1832 was passed, Sir R. Peel, by his political Tamworth mani festo and his speech in the House of Commons, pledged the Tory party not to interfere with that settlement which was arrived at. It was then the hatit of those who passed the bill of 1832, and who found, to their great surprise, that there was a great danger of a Tory Government being formed, to de clare that the real object which Sir R. Peel and his friends had in view was to repeal the now Re form Bill; and Sir R. Peel, with great prudence, as it was then universally deemed, entered into that compact, the reason for which I have always had great doubts ; but whether that compact was wise or not, no one will deny it was religiously observed by the Conservative party. (Cheers.) Every man who acted with them scrupulously supported and assisted Sir R. Peel in carrying that compact into fulfilment; and I never heard it for one moment whispered that wu long departed from that engagement ; but when 20 years after the bill of 1832 a Minister, filling the high capacity of Prime Minister of England—when in 1852 a Prime Minister announced that that law was no longer adequate to the circumstances, and that he should himself introduce a measure to super sede it—why then, I say, the Tory party was im mediately exempted from the engagement into which they had entered, and it was for them to consider the course which they ought to pursue. (Loud cheers.) I. touch upon this point because it is a subject which has now for a very long time been circulated with impunity in the country ; and I want to show to you that our title was clear to deal with this greatest and j most important of political questions—the distribu tion of political power in the State. (Cheers.) After Lord John Russell had announced his retreat from the doctrine of finality there was a meeting of gentle men connected with the Tory party; and, taking all the circumstances of the case into consideration, they communicated with their friends, and came to a de finite and determined resolution that under no cir cumstances whatever was the Tory party ever to be induced to paws a new Reform Bill ; that they would always assist its introduction, and then attempt to mould it into that form which they believe.l would be most advantageous to the country—(cheers) - and to that resolution, passed nearly 20 years ago, they had invariably and religiously adhered. And I can only say for myself, from the. time I over presume 1 at the request of my friends to take any lead in public affairs, I have never omitted au opportunity of claiming, whenever this question was brought for ward, the right of the Tory party to deal with it (cheers), deeming that historically we had as good and better a right than our opponents, but that, totally irrespective of these considerations, it was a fatal position that one of the great constitutional parties of England should commence their programme by the admission that on the most vital and interesting of public questions they were to be considered to be debarred from ever interfering. (Cheers.) Well, then, I think, my lords and gentlemen, it must be agreed, notwithstanding the speech which has re cently been delivered in the city of Edinburgh—(a laugh) -- , that the question of Parliamentary Reform was a question for the Tory party to deal with if they thought proper. (Cheers.) I say so, first, on. abstract political grounds; and, secondly, if neces sary, but it is not necessary, I vindicate it on histo rical facts totally opposed to that perverted state ment which has recently been made in this city. (Cheers.) 'Well, my lords and gentlemen, if that question was one with which we had a right to deal, the next question—and it is a much more important one—is this, having the right to deal with it, ought we to have dealt with it ? Well, now, it does appear to me that any man of calm mind, any man accus tomed to consider public affairs, any Englishman, any Scotchman, or any Irishman, who, living in a free country, does not pass idly this important ques tion, as in other countries he might, as to the distri bution of power—l think any man who has calmly considered this question must have felt it was abso lutely necessary for Lord Derby in 1867 to deal with this question. (Cheers.) Why, what are the facts of the case? The facts of the case are very brief. They aro these : for 15 years, from 1852 to the end of 1866, the Government of the Queen had been dealing with the question of Parliamentary Reform, not the Parliament of England, for that is a totally different thing from the Government of the country dealing with the question, and that being a question of merely Parliamentary interest supported by some Parliamentary connection,• both may endeavour to obtain public confidence and public applause by supporting a particular line of policy. A ques tion may be a purely Parliamentary question, such as the abolition of slavery and many other questions, when it may be right that they should not be precipitate in their resolution, and that they should be matured by frequent and continuous dis cussion, not merely of years, but, if necessary, on some questions of generations. But the moment the Queen's Government comes forward and says that the question ought to be settled, the country has a right to suppose that the wisest men have given their consideration to it, and that State necessity requires that some settlement should be arrived at. (Cheers.) You might say that it was merely the Whig party that were of this opinion. Is that the case ? Every Prime Minister during these 15 years, and every party that has been in power during these 15 years, had heard announced from the Throne that the question of Parliamentary Reform, which is the question of the distribution of power in the State, was one which demanded consideration and settlement. (Cheers.) Every Prime Minister of every party in power had dealt with that question, and had failed. Lord John Russell had dealt with the question, and had failed. (Cheers and laughter.) Lord Aberdeen, at the head of one of the most powerful Governments, so far as personal talent is concerned, that ever existed in this country—Lord Aberdeen had dealt with the question, and had failed. Lord Palmerston had dealt with the ques tion, and hal failed. Lord Derby hal dealt with the question, and had failed. Lord John Russell had dealt with the question again and had failed. (Cheers.) Well, you talk about the agitation iu the country—you talk about the unprincipled conduct of men practising for self-interest :tut] private ends —but what do you say to agitators who, year aft e r year, announce that the most important political question requires a settlement, and year after year, Ministry after Ministry, the attempt is made and no settlement is arrived at? (Cheers.) Why, what is the practical conclusion, under such circumstances, at which every man could arrive ? It must be this, and everybody does feel in England, that the great machine was not adequate to the question, that it could not meet the difficulties. Well, if the Govern ment of the country was not adequate to that which the country required, then ' my lords and gen tlemen, I venture to think that I have shown BOROUCHI HOP.

SUICIDE IN THE CITY GAOL. —Yesterday Mr. Herford, city coroner, held an inquest on the body of William APDough, aged '29 years, who hanged himself in the city gaol on Sunday. The prisoner had boon committed for trial for tho manslaughter of a man named Al•Evoy, and on Sunday he hanged himself in his cell. Ono of the warders found him suspended by a pioco of towelling and coir yarn from a pipe that projected into the coll. During the hearing of the case it was inciden tally stated that the deceased was in the punishment cell, and that consequently ho did not go to chapel. The jury returned a verdict of felo de se, and recommended that all prisoners should have the opportunity of going to church or chapel on Sundays, and that there should be no projec tions into tho cells like that to which the deceased hanged himself.—Manchester Guardian. SERIOUS ACCIDENT TO A VAN.—At a few minutes past Lino o'clock last night an accident happened at the Waterloo Railway Station to a van loaded with reams of paper. The vehicle was being driven up the incline from the Waterloo-road to the main lino of the South-Western Railway, and when near the curve of the roadway the horse swerved from the weight of the van, and turned it com pletely on its side. At the time of the accident three or four men were in the van, and, with the exception of the driver, who was removed in an insensible state to the hos pital, marvellously escaped injury. The injuries sustained by the driver are of a very serious nature. ATTEMPTED SUICIDE BY A SAILOR.—An English sailor, named fful. I)oa►uan, belonging to the Gloucester, lying iu the port of Havre, contrived some days back to get into the garden of M. Courant's habitation ou the Cote, and thence into the kitchen, whom ho snatched up a carving knife and attempted to commit suicide by cutting his throat. The servants gave au alarm, and the man was removed to the hospital. No doubt is entertained of his being mad.
