NONEY MARKET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENOR, TWELVE O'CLOCK. There is still a tendency towards greater ease in the general discount market, and the inquiries are on a smaller scale. Nor is it probable that greater activity will prevail when at the present juncture foreign politics are too discouraging to resuscitate confidence. The rates continue to range at 2! to 3 per cent., but the facilities offered fail to stimu late the inquiry. At the Bank of England on Saturday there were no gold operations of importance. The Africa, from New York, had arrived with specie to the amount of £2,150. It has been announced that a meeting of the creditors of Messrs. Christopher, Newton, Brother, and Co., of 17, Gresham-street West, will be held at the Guildhall Hotel to-morrow at 1 o'clock. From the manufacturing districts the accounts for the past week are in some instances more satisfac tory. The woollen trade of Leeds, Bradford, and Huddersfield has shown symptons of improvement, and moderate operations have been effected in spring fabrics. At Manchester, however, there has been less animation, and owing to the large importations of cotton at Liverpool prices have shown a farther slight decline for cloths and yarns. At Leicester and Nottingham there has been little change to re port in the hosiery and lace departments, while in the hardware districts of Birmingham, Sheffield, and Wolverhampton there has been little change of importance ; a fair demand, however, still continues for all descriptions of railway iron and steel. Atlantic and Great Western Railway Debentures have declined to 30 32, and the Consolidated Mortgage Bonds L, to 21i 22i. Two o'CLocx. There is a complete panic at the Stock Exchange, all the markets being in a feverish state—so much so, indeed, that it is almost impossible to obtain reliable quotations. They may be said to vary almost every minute, and such a degree of excitement has not been witnessed for a considerable period. Our last prices of Consols are 11 per cent. below those of Saturday, which were per cent. under those of the afternoon before. Heavy sales have been effected and are still in progress, and considerable orders to sell have arrived from the Continent. For a moment telegrams from Berlin of a slightly more reassuring nature caused a lull, but there is a con tinuance of turmoil and confusion. Consols are about 90 13-16 for money and the account, and 90 15-16 91 1-16 for the May [settlement.

American Securities are also very depressed. Erie Shares have fallen 36 37 ; Uiited States 5-20 Bonds 14, to 73i 74 ; and Illinois remain at 77 78. In the Railway Share Market considerable excite ment has prevailed, and prices have shown en im portant decline in most instances. Midland have receded 24 ; Metropolitan, 2 ; North Western, South Eastern, and Lancahire and Yorkshire each 14 ; Great Northern and Great Western each 1, and Great Eastern, 4. The Foreign and Colonial lines are also flat Great Luxembourg have declined 9+ ; South Aus trian and Lombardo-Venetian to 14+ ; East Indian to 107+ ; and Grand Trunk of Canada to 184. Bank shares are neglected and the few dealings reported show a slight decline in values. Chartered of India, Australia, and China have given way to 154 ; London Joint-Stock to 41 414 ; Bank of Egypt to 34 ; and Oriental Bank Corporation to 404. In the Miscellaneous Market there has been very little activity. Atlantic Telegraph 8 per Cents. have declined to 75 80, Credit Foncier of England to 2i 4, Royal Mail Steam to 94, and Viceroy of Egypt Mortgage Loan to 714. MINING MARKET. MONDAY EVENING.

On Saturday the auhorities of Dover and Folkestone, in concurrence with the South-Eastern and London, Chat ham, and Dover Railways authorities, issued a programme of general information as to the arrangements which are to be made for the transit and accommodation of the volunteers and the public, and the arrangements, &c., which are to be provided on the occasion of the forthcoming review, so far as the local authorities are concerned. Arrangements are making in conjunction with the quartermasters by local committees to select places where corps can at once pro ceed, on arrival at Dover on the morning of the review, to obtain refreshment at a moderate and fixed tariff. With regard to hotel and lodging accommodation, stabling, &c., at Dover and Folkestone, the local committee report that there is ample accommodation for volunteers and visitors, and the proprietors have been urged to adopt a moderate and uniform scale of charges. From Hythe, Sandgate, Deal, Weimer, Sandwich, Ramsgate, Margate, Canterbury, reports state there is ample accommodation, and the Dover Railway Company will give every possible facility of transit On Saturday and Tuesday, the 20th and 23d April, there is to be prize rifle shooting at Folkestone ; volunteer balls are to take place in Dover, at the Town-hall and Apollonion, on Easter Monday night, and at the Town-hall, Folkestone, on Tuesday night ; with concerts and amateur performances at Dover on Saturday and Tuesday evenings ; the castle and fortifications, reading-rooms, Volunteer Institute (to volunteers free), and military bands to play on the prome nades each day, and Waldershare Park, Kearsney Abbey and Woods thrown open for pie -nicks, audit is stated that by permission of Government there will be a naval squadron anchored off Dover, and the whole of the ships and yachts in the bay will be illuminated on Easter Monday night. In reference to the railway arrangements the stations appointed for the departure by South-Eastern route are Charing-cross and Cannon-street, and by the London,Chat ham, and Dover route Victoria and Blackfriars-bridge, and at Dover, South-Eastern station, and the Dover Harbour and Dover Priory stations. The hours of departure and re turn of trains on Easter Monday are regulated by War office instructions, and the volunteer trains are to have priority over every other traffic. As to fares and regula tions with regard to tickets none will be supplied unless in a printed form, accompanied by the Secretary of State's permission to attend the review, and none later than 12 o'clock at noon on Wednesday, April 17. Tickets may be had for Thursday, Friday, Saturday, or Sunday preceding the review, and by special trains on Easter Monday, but tickets issued for Easter Monday are not available for any previous day. The fares from London or any station between for volunteers in uniform with arms ls. 6d. ; from Reading, 2s. 6d. The charge for officers' and troopers' horses at own risk is 10s.; adjutants' horses free. Cheap excursions will be organised between Dover, Folkeston e Shorncliffe Camp, Canterbury, & c ., an d coast town commu nication between Ramsgate, Deal, and Dover. Cheap ex cursions to Calais and Boulogne and back on Good Friday, Saturday, and Easter Sunday; but it is announced that the Inspector-General desires that all who avail themselves thereof should be attired either entirely as volunteers or as civilians, and tickets will only be issued in accordance with this regulation. The public railway express trains will run on Easter Monday from Charing-cross and Cannon-street at 7.55 and 9.55 a.m., and from Victoria and Ludgate -hill at 7.25 a.m. The volunteer trains on that day will be timed by the War-office authorities. Volunteer luggage allowed-1201bs. for officers, and 601bs. for privates. The War -office authorities are making preparations not only as to the site of the ground at Dover upon which the evolutions are to take place, but as to the plan of the move ments, in which it is now understood that some four or five thousand regulars as well as the volunteers aro to take part With this object Colonel Erskine, the Inspector-General of Volunteers, and other members of his staff, visited Dover a few days ago, and rode over the ground on which the Castle-hill forts are situate, where it is proposed the review shall take place, and having made a minute inspection, passed along the whole of the sea frontage of the town with a view to arrange as to the rendezvous of the different battalions of volunteers on the morning of Easter Monday, prior to marching off to the review ground. Col. Erskine and the party afterwards visited the " Lord Warden" Hotel, where they met Mr. Knight, of the South-Eastern, and Mr. Martin, Mr. Mills, and other authorities cf the London, Chatham, and Dover Railways, and the arrange ments for conveying the volunteers to and from London and other parts on the morning and evening of the review were agreed upon. It is understood that an application has been made to the Secretary of State for War to permit the annual review of the Kent volunteers, to the number of 4,000 or 5,000, to take place in conjunction with the Easter Monday review at Dover, instead of having, as usual, a special day devoted to that purpose, but it is doubtful if such authority will be given. A great many of the Kent battalions will, however, be present as individual corps on the occasion of the general rev iew. LIVERPOOL CO r lON ailitIKET.

Captain Hunter, of the Marine Board, will assist in the proceedings, A meeting of Vice-Presidents of the Conference on the Licensing System was held on Saturday Y afternoon at the Earl of Shaftesbur residence, in Gros venor-square. It was attended by the Earl of Shaftes bury, the Earl of Harrowby, Mr. W. E. Forster, M.P., Mr. Ayrton, M.P., Colonel Sykes, M.P., M r. Akro d, M.P, Y Archbishop Manning, Sir John Bowring, Mr. Robert ' Rawlinson, C. 8., Mr. Henry Pownall, Rev. henry Sony, Mr. Hugh Owen, and the Secret ar y, M r. C. Ribton Turner. Thu principles of the Liverpool Licensing Bill were discussed, and it was resolved that the Earl of Shaftes bury, the Earl of Harrowby, the Earl of Lichfield, and Lord Lyttelton should be requested to consider the expe diency of introducing a bill into the House of Loris, with reference to the opinions expressed by the vice-president. ANOTHER QUESTION FOR MR. WALPOLE.—It is satisfactory to learn that, in the matter of jurymen, Glocestershiro is a more rational county than Berkshire. The unprotected male traveller will take some little coin fort from reading that a certain young woman, one Eliza beth Gay, has been sentenced to six months' hard labour for swearing falsely that she had been outraged by a fel low-traveller in an omnibus, at Bristol, last February. She swore that the crime was committed during the short time that the omnibus was driving 236 yards and down hill; and, as in Toomer's case, there was nothing but the unsup ported evidence of the two parties concerned to help justice to a decision. Fortunately for the accused— who is a young man—the magistrate before whom the case was brought refused to believe the complainant, although she was a woman, and a young woman, and, moreover, a married woman. But since then corroborative evidence turned up, and an action for perjury became possible. Tho prosecu trix, who seems to have relied on the absence of the con ductor, had never noticed that a boy was standing upon the step of the omnibus at the very time that she swore that she was criminally assaulted, and the boy having con tradicted her story, a conviction for perjury was pressed for, and the jurors not being Reading men, brought in a verdict of " Guilty." Now what will Mr. Walpole do in the matter ? 'Will he let off this hopeful criminal from a portion of her six months' hard labour, on the ground that she is a young woman and may possibly become the mother of a family ? It is impossible to foresee. As to those who have nothing but common sense to guide them, they will ask what is to be said for a condition of the English law which assigns only six months' hard labour as the punishment for imputing to an innocent man a crime for which, if she had been believed, he might have been sen tenced to fifteen years of penal servitude. Surely there are degrees in the guilt of perjury; and next to false swearing away a man's life, which is simply murder in ono of its most aggravated forms, it can scarcely be more atrocious than when its aim is totally to destroy a man's reputation, and to inflict on him the punishment which is r3served for the worst crimes short of actual murder.— Pa 4-55511 Gazette.

MARK-LANE. There was a moderate demand for wheat in most of the country markets held on Saturday, at about stationary prices. Barley, oats, and all other kinds of produce were a slow inquiry, at late rates. _ . . The cBntinental markets keep steady for wheat, but the transactions on English acc3unt aro only moderato. Spring corn sells steadily. Higher prices have boon realised for both wheat and fhur in America. The imp wts of foreign and colonial produce into I on don last week amounted to 36,263 quarters of wheat, 8,703 barley, 29,191 oats, 3,312 beans, 399 p3as, 70 seeds, 760 sacks and 100 barrels of flour. The arrivals of English wheat fresh up to our market to-day, coastwise and by land carriage, was very moderate. The show of samples was, therefore, rather limited ; but the quality of the supply was tolerably good. The pro spect of an open rupture with Spain induced the factors to demand extreme rates. The business doing, however, was only moderate, at is to 2s per qr above the prices of Mon day last. The quantity of foreign wheat on the stands was rather Last week's quotations were supported ; but extensive. le domand was far from active. Fine dry samples were is dearer. Floating cargoes of grain were steady in price. We were fairly supplied with foreig❑ barley, but the show of English was very moderate. In all kinds sales progressed slowly, at the late decline iu the quotations. Malt was in full average supply and sluggish request, on former terms. Good sound oats moved off steadily, at full prices ; but inferior kinds were very dull, at barely late rates. Beans commanded very little attention, at late curren cies. The sappy was good. Peas met a dull inquiry. Prices, however, were sup- ported. Both English and foreign wheat were neglected. Most seeds were very inactive, but not quotably lower. In cakes very little was passing.

The supply of foreign stock on offer in to-day's market was only moderate, whilst its general condition was rather inferior. The trade was heavy in the extreme, at de pressed quotations. From our own grazing districts the arrivals of beasts fresh up this morning were seasonably good, and, for the most part, in excellent condition. The attendance of butchers being limited, the demand for all breeds of beasts was in a depressed state, at a decline in the quotations ccmpared with Monday last of quite 2d per 81b. The extreme price for the best Scots and crosiies was 5s per 81b.

There were no fresh arrivals from Ireland. We were again well supplied with sheep, the quality of which was prime. All breeds were heavy in the extreme, and prices gave way 4d per Sibs.

THIS D.Y. The adjourned sessions of the Central Criminal Court commenced this morning before the Lord Mayor, Re corder, and the sheriffs. Colonel Nelson and Lieutenant Brand, who stand committed for trial at the Bow-street Police-court, but who are in the meantime liberated on their own recognisances and on substantial bail besides, will be indicted at the instance of the Jamaica Committee, for the alleged murder of George William Gordon, on the 23d of October, 1865, at Morant Bay, and in the event of the grand jury finding a true bill the occasion will be in vested with all the dignity of a State trial. Already pre parations are being made for it. Ordinarily the duty of charging the grand jury devolves upon the Recorder of London (Mr. Russell Gurney), but he has not thought It desirable on this occassion to assume it, so far, at least, as the charge against Colonel Nelson and Lieutenant Brand is concerned, in consideration of his having acted as one of the Royal Commissioners for :nquiring into the circumstances connected with the rebellion in Jamaica. That being so, the Lord Chief Justice of England has intimated his intention to attend the court on Wednes day morning and deliver the eharge to the grand jury in that. particular case. Sir Alexander Cockburn will be ac companied on the occasion by two other of the judges, who will probably be Mr. Justice Montague Smith and Mr. Justice Lusk, for their names are upon the rota for th 3 April Sessions, and it is said that nothing will be wanting in the constitution of the Court, or in the arrangements calculated to lend dignity to the occasion. The agents for the prosecution are about to indict Colonel Nelson and Lieutenant Brand not only for the alleged murder of Gordon, but also for that of Samuel Clarke. In the case of Clarke the proceeding is excep tional in this respect, though not without precedent or au thority, that no evidence was adduced before Sir Thomas Henry, the committing magistrate, and there was, in fact, no commitment for the murder of Clarke. The commit ment was for the alleged murder of Gordon alone. Clarke, it may bo remembered, was tried by court-martial for re bellion, and hung at Morant Bay on_the 23d of October, 1865, the same day on which Gordon was executed. In the event of a bill being found by the grand jury, if is understood that the case for the prosecution will be con ducted by Mr. Edward James, Q.C., Mr. Fitzjames Stephen, and Mr. Horne Payne. The defence of Colonel Nelson will be taken up by the War Department, and that of Lieut. Brand by the Admiralty. The Attorney or Solici tor-General will probably defend Colonel Nelson, with Mr. Hannan and Mr. Poland. Lieut. Brand will, it is said, bo defended by Sir R. P. Collier, Mr. Huddleston, Q.C., counsel to the Admiralty and Judge-Advocate of the Fleet, and Mr. West. To-day the Recorder charged the grand jury with respect to all the rest of the prisoners committed for trial, of whom there is more than an average number. There are two cases of wilful murder to be disposed of. The first of these is that of a Swedish seaman, named Karl Andersen, which was postponed from last session. The prisoner, it will be remembered, was one of the crew of an English merchant vessel, and while she was on her voyage, and, without any provocation, he nearly severed the head of ono of his comrades from his body while he was asleep. The pri soner appeaped to have conducted himself in a very extra ordinary manner for some time before he committed the act imputed to him, and there seems to be very little doubt that he was insane at the time, and the trial was adjourned from the last session in order to afford an opportunity of bringing forward evidence to establish this fact. Another charge of murder is one which created a good deal of sen sation at the time the matter was under inquiry by the police magistrate, the prisoners, who are man and wife, named George and Mary Condy, being charged with causing wilfully the death of their child, a boy 12 years of age, by starvation and ill-treatment. There is a case of conspiracy, in which a father, mother, and daughter are accused of obtaining a considerable sum of money from a widow lady by representing that the last mentioned_ prisend3r_ was an heiress, and entitled to large estates, and producing various pretended deeds and other documents in support of the assumed claim. Upon the faith of these representations, the prose cutrix was induced to advance a large sum of money to the prisoners, the whole of their story turning out, in the re sult, to be an entire fabrication andfraud. The offence of stealing.post letters, which, under the recent regulation of the Post-office compelling the registration of all letters containing coin or valuables, was apparently put a stop to, appears to have revived; and there are no fewer than four prisoners charged with that offence in the present calendar, and among them is one of a letter-carrier who has been employed in the Post-office for a period of 23 years. Ut tering and counterfeiting coin would also seem to be on the increase, and there are no less than 31 prisoners com mitted for trial at the ensuinesession for that offence. POLICE INTELLIGEtICE.—This Day. Ai ARLB 0 RO UGH- S T REE T . ROBBERY.—John O'Donnell, a shabbily attired man, who described himself as a clerk, of no fixed home, was charged with stealing a plated fish carver, a fork, and spoon, the property of Mr. Smith, of the Cremorne Branch Tavern, New Coventry-street. . - - - G. Smith, cook, in the employ of Mr. Smith, said that about eight o'clock last night he was told there was a man in the kitchen. On going there he saw the prisoner, who offered him a penny, and said " Victuals." He told him that sort of thing was not allowed, and that ho had seen him in the house before on the same errand. While the prisoner was being shown upstairs, he (witness) noticed that he had something bulky in his pocket, and asked him what ho had got in it. He replied, "Nothing ;" but, not being satisfied, he put his hand into his pocket, and took out a fish carver, a fork, and spoon, Mr. Smith's property, and of the value of 255. The prisoner asked him to let him go, but ho declined to do so, and gave him into custody. police-constable Henry Forme, 323 A, said that on re ceiving the prisoner in custody last night tho prisoner made no answer to the charge, but on the way to the station he said, " They wanted to have a 'lark' with me by putting them into my pocket." In answer to Mr. Tyrwhitt, the prisoner said he had nothing to say. _ Barnes, the gaoler, said he believed the prisoner had been at the Court before, and for felony. Mr. Tyrwhitt remanded the prisoner. THAMES. SAVAGE ASSAULT ON A POLICE-CONSTABLB.-401111 Gog gan, an Irish labourer, was brought before Mr. Paget charged with assaulting Joseph Bull, a police-constable, No. 204 K. The constable stated that he was in High-street, Poplar, on Saturday night, and the prisoner accosted him and asked him the way to Limehouse. He directed the pri soner on his way to Limehouse, and was walking back on his heat when the prisoner struck him a violent blow under his left oar, and knocked him down. Ho was half stunned by the blow, and when he got up asked him what he meant. The prisoner said, "I'll kill every -- police man iu this neighbourhood," and hit at him again. lie parried the blow, and a constable came across the road and captured the prisoner. John M'Craklin, a constable of the S division, confirmed the statement of the last witness. The prisoner—l have been locked up for nothing. I was drunk on Saturday night, and re collect nothing at all. Mr. Paget asked some questions about the prisoner, who said he lived at No. 9, Silver Lion-court, Poplar, and was generally at work among the guano. Mr. Paget—lf I were to overlook this, and not punish such brutality very severely I should leave the police, when doing their duty, exposed to all kinds of violence. The constable civilly directed yon on your road, and you knocked him down. You are sentenced to one month's imprisonment and hard labour. SANGUINARY AFFRAY.—An immense number of Irish from Ratcliff and vicinity assembled opposite the court to learn the result of an investigation commenced by Mr. Paget at 11 o'clock. The inquiry arose out of a sanguinary affray between the pollee and several Irish in Brook-street, Ratcliff, on Saturday night. It commenced at nine o'clock. A large pane of plate glass was broken in the window of the King's Head publichouse, in Perriwinkle-street, a few yards from Brook-street. The landlord asked Pead, a police-constable, No. 404 K, for advice, and he said you had better summon the party who has done the damage. The word " summon" was no sooner mentioned than the constable was struck by en Irishman. Peed took his assailant into custody, and was immediately attacked by a number of Irish of both sexes. The prisoner was rescued. Stones and flints were hurled at the police, Sergeant Freeston, No. 58 K, and Sergeant Butt, 62 K, were fearfully wounded and disabled, and other officers were cut and bruised. The police were compelled to use their truncheons, and several of the Irish received blows and contusions. Four persons were captured and brought before Mr. Paget. They were a rough lot, and gave their names as follows :—John Bar nett, Michael Sullivan, Mary Murphy, and Honors Bayley. They were all identified by Pead, Freeston, and Butt, as taking an active part in the affray.

WESTMINSTER. A BRUTAL HUSBAND.—WiIIiam Powell, a costermonger, was brought up on a warrant, charged with threatening his wife. Complainant said that she had been married to the de fendant 20 years, and had five children. On Monday last her husband threatened to kick her brains out, and she very much feared him. Mr. Arnold—What was the cause of his using the threat ? Wife—lle was drunk on the Saturday and drunk on the Sunday. On the Monday he only got food for himself. I did not ask for any for myself, but for my little child. Mr. Arnold -Has he ever ill-treated you ? Wifo—lle kicked me violently in the back on Sunday night. Mr. Arnold—ls there any cause for this conduct ? Wife—He is seldom or never sober—that is the cause. He is my husband. and I don't want to hurt him. I only want him to keep away from me. I will work to support the children if he will leave me alone. Defendant entered into a long, rambling story, in the course of which he charged his wife with having assaulted him, and endeavoured to convince the magistrate that ho was always anxious to live a cosy, quiet life. Davis, one of the summoning officers—This man is one of the greatest brutes alive. He is constantly beating and knocking her about. He would have killed her one night if I had not been present. Inspector Bates, of the B division—He has been using her shamefully for 10 years. The wife again said she did not wish to press the charge, and was anxious to separate from her husband, declaring that she would work her fingers to the bone to maintain her children. Defendant said he would make her a separate allow- ance. Mr. Arnold told him he had nothing whatever to do with arrangements of that sort, but he would take care that the woman was protected from his violence. lie was then ordered to find bail for six months. The Earthquake in the Archipelago. A correspondent of the Levant Herald, writing from Mitylene on the 20th of March, says " I cannot yet give you the final details of the havoc caused by the calamity which has befallen us, as shocks still continue, and it has been impossible to prepare up to the present moment any reliable official return ; even the ruins have not yet been completely explored. So far in the town of Mitylene itself 150 bodies have been dug out and interred, and to judge from the fetid smell which prevails, especially near the bazaar, there are perhaps still many victims lying under the mass of fallen rubbish. The number who have perished throughout the island is estimated at about 1,300, the entire popu tion being 80,000, of whom.lo,ooo only are Mussul mans. No further assistance has come to hand since that I last reported, but the tents, stores, &c., which had already been sent are being distributed every day to those who are in most pressing need of them. Marco Pasha and the staff of medical men under his orders have been most assiduous since they were sent here by the Sultan in their charitable work. They have paid every attention to the sick and wounded. The other day Marco Pasha went in person to Moliva and Calonni, and at the latter place, which has suffered severely, he has opened a couple of places of refuge for the homeless and two temporary hospitals." Another letter in the same journal dated from Cephalonia, March 15, gives the following details;— " The island continues to feel indications of vol canic action. Forty days have elapsed since the calamity which has inflicted so much injury first burst upon us, and the shocks have not yet ceased, although they have become much weaker. People are looking forward anxiously to the opening up of a crater on one of the mountains, which will, in all probability, take place, and thus give vent to the eruption and put an end to the shocks of earthquake. At Argostoli there are not 20 houses left standing, and the distress there is at its height. The fields are left untilled, for their owners have no means to pay for labour, and many have emigrated. Trade is completely paralysed, and, with the exception of carpenters and masons, the workmen in the towns have nothing whatever to do. Rents have risen to enormous prices, 20 talaris a month being offered for a miserable little place of two or three rooms. Pe - cuniary assistance has been sent here from various quarters, but the sums remitted so far will cover but a small portion of the total loss, which is estimated at about 3,000,000 talaris, or some £600,000, in ad dition to the loss of 300 lives and the number of wounded. The King, who spent four or five days here, went in person to all the places that have suf fered, and after he left sent a cargo of provisions and of wood for building purposes. The two Eng lish ironelads which came here from Malta brought quantity of biscuit and of general provisions ; their surgeons showed the greatest attention to the wounded, and our Consul, Baron d'Everton, kindly put a considerable sum of money at the disposal of those who were in most pressing need. The official returns of the victims of the late disaster show 231 killed and 156 wounded. OXFORD AND CAMBRIDGE BOAT RACE. Marvellous was the assemblage at Putney, Barnes, and Mortlake, on Saturday ; those whose life is a continual holiday, and thosa who enjoy the boon of a Saturday half holiday, were mingled together to the number of thou sands. Not only was the bank thickly peopled, but the London and other rowing clubs mustered in great force, the one named manning two twelves, besides a number of other boats, so that the flotilla was considerable. There was no practice in the morning, the tide being unfavour able. At three o'clock in the afternoon the Oxonians launched their boat and paddled down to the Putney Aqueduct, from a yard or two above which they started up with a very fine flood tide. They commenced their work at 32 strokes p er minute, with all their enormouLondon s power ow thrown into it ; rowed 34 when opposite the R ing Club boat house, and 36 at the point, their pace being so great that they reached it in 3} minutes. Here they thickened their number of strokes till they stopped at Barnes Bridge, which was reached at a little above 19 minutes. They then paddled up to Wilcox's and down to Hammersmith Bridge, after a slight rest. They then started off again and came down the reach to the aqueduct at 36 strokes per minute, which were again thickened at the end. The Cantabs paddled up at just before high water at Mortlake, and then came down to Hammersmith Bridge smartly, where, after a short pause, they had a very dash ing pull to their boat house at 36 strokes per minute. They kept good time, and their stroke was long, but there was some amount of unevenness in style amongst the rowers. The competitors have, as usual, been invited to dine with the Thames Subscription Club after the race. SHIPPING INZELLIG.kNCE. (By Telegraph.) GRAVESEND, Monday Morning.

HEAVY DAMAGES AGAINST A RAILWAY COM - PANY.—On Friday, at the Leeds Adsizes, Mr. Dyson, a cot ton waste dealer at Huddersfield, brought an action against the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway Company for inju ries sustained by a collision at the Victori a station, Man chester, on the 7th of last August. The train in which the plaintiff was seated was standing still, when, owing to some misunderstanding of the signals, another train came up and ran into it, hurting him so seve rel y about the head and body that he was yet hardly able to wove about. De fendants did not deny their liability, and theque.stiou was entirely ono of amount of compensation. T he jury gav the plaintiff £l,OOO. damages. The Royal Mail steamship Africa, from New York on the 26th ult., arrived at (.2ueenstown at 5 a.m. yesterday (Sunday) with 62 passengers and 10,600 dollars in specie. After landing 120 sacks of mails and three pas.. sengers she proceeded at 5.15 am., for Liverpoool. All well. NEWMARKET RACES—THis DAY‘ Deli= La Sorreutina Rhymer BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.

The Newmarket Craven Meeting will be watched with a groat deal of interest, as it will have an important bear ing on future events, and most probably throw consider able light on the great problems which have to be solved on the 23d of April and 22d of May next, on which dates the Two Thousand Guineas and Derby are competed for. The Newmarket Handicap will most likely go to one of the horses trained at " headquarters," as amongst that lot are Apsley, Jasper, Othello, Primrose, Leap Year, Leases, Clarice, and Numa Pompilius ; and as I fancy this is to be his journey, I shall stand upon NUMA POMPILIUS and WILD BRIAR. In the Ninth Sale Stakes, as Saytr does not take any allowance, and MID WIFE and GOLDEN BLOOM take 91b and Glb respectively, I shall look to one of the two last-mentioned to furnish the winner. The Sweepstakes of 100 sovs, Ditch Milo, will, I presume, go to THE DUCHESS. The Beacon Stakes is a foregone conclusion, unless Sedalia can improve her Liverpool performance, for GRIMSTON. The Sweepstakes of 50 sovs each, Ditch mile, will only be a canter for THE RAKE, should he be brought ont for this engagement. The Ninth Newmarket Biennial Stakes, Rowley mile,' has a lot of the Derby candidates engaged, and notwithstanding Vauban, Taraban, cum muftis aliis are engaged, I expect to see the winner turn up in Jumus or D'ESTOURNEL, unless the Rake puts in an appearance, and then he would be my absolute choice. I have a decided preference for LAND TAX in his match with Rhymer. Wednesday's racing brings me to the Column Stakes, which I think will be 'credited to the Owner of RINGTAU. SCREAMER. KINGSLEY and EAU DE VIE ought to win their respective matches on the same day. The Eighth Newmarket Biennial Stakes, run on Thurs day, has a lot of indifferent horses engaged, and of these, as I believe, AMMUNITION claims a 101 b allowance, I shall plump for her. The Abingdon Stakes is between Ninny, -Haymarket, and PYRENEES, of which I prefer Prince D. Soltykoff's representative. The Claret Stakes will go to AUGUSTE, the Aske Produce to SCHUR DE CHARITE or RAVIOLI, the Sweepstakes of 25 says each to Eau DE VIE, ) unless the Baron's North Marston bowls him over. The Sweepstakes of 100 sovs each, and the Match between Offington and Dr. Syntax, I would rather not speculate upon. The Port Stakes on Friday will go to LORD GLASGOW. For the Bennington Stakes, in the absence of Vauban, I fancy the RINGTAIL SCREAMER. Of course Hermit will not come out of his shell for the 100 sovs. Sweepstakes Ditch Mile, in which case ()WAIN GLENDWYR or FRI. rotonEn will win. The Sweepstakes of 30 sous each, T.Y.C. should go to Hum, though I believe Blinkhoolie has made great improvement. PYRENEES ought to make short work with Chantilly at their difference of weight itt t►eir match. A FRESH IiAN. TATTERSALL'S—SATuRDer. CHESTER CUP.
