MONEY MARKET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGIINOX, TWELVE O'CLOCK There is no alteration in the Discount Market, and the amount of business transacted to-day has been extremely limited. The sum of £12,000, in sovereigns, was received at the Bank of England yesterday from the Con tinent. It has been resolved by the London and Brighton Railway Company to issue scrip for £1,250,000 new stock at 45, under discount of 5 per cent. in instalments. NEW GRENADA DEBT.—Messrs. Baring and Co., have this day received a remittance on account of New Grenada dividends of £2,103 from the Custom House of Santa Marta. The agent at Santa Marta Writes that the state of war in which the country has continued has interfered with the collections during the past month, and the Chief of the State has made use of the bondholders' money to the extent of $12,000. Atlantic and Great Western Railway Debentures have declined 1, to 27 29, but the Consolidated Mortgage Bonds remain steady at 221 23i. The Metropolitan dividend is to be at the rate of 7 per cent., carrying over to next account the sum of £7,223. The directors of the Devonshire Great Consoli dated Copper Mining Company, at their board meeting held yesterday, declared a dividend of £7,168, being £7 per share, arising from profits on sales of copper ores sampled in the months of March and April last.

A deposit of £2, amounting in the aggregate to £250,000, will become due on the Scinde and Delhi Bank, new £2O shares, on Monday next. The specie movements during the past week have again been of a rather extensive character. The imports, which have amounted to about £ 7 83,597, have included £24,238 from New York by the Union; £96,102 by the Saxonia ; £276,613 by the City of London ; £39,016 by the Java ; and £50,000 by the Erin.

The exports have been £362,722, chiefly in remittances to the Continent, through Private sources. Two O'CLOCK. Upon the whole there has been a rather firmer to ne in the market for the English Funds to-day, a nd Consols closed at 931 for money, and at 93 1 546, 94 1-16 for the account. ~,The New Thr ees ar e 931 i; Reduced Annuiti es , u , u „i ; New 21 per Cents., 76 ; Exchequer Bills S• pm. forch, and 225. pm. for June ; Bank of E ngland Stock, 2578 9 ; India Stock, 220 ; ditto 5 Per Cents., 1111 1 ; ditto Enfaced 5 per Cents, 1024 ; ditto £l,OOO Bonds, 665. prem.

The last of the celebrated Bow-street runners, Mr. Leo, aged 76, died on Tuesday last. This officer was well known from the fact of his having captured Corder, for the murder of Maria Martin in the "Rod Barn," and it is only about three years ago, when a theatrical benefit was given for him, that he took the " original part" of the runner, and again made a capture of the murderer. For 36 years he enjoyed a handsome pension, which he monthly received at the Lambeth Police court.—South London Press. Loss OF THREE LIVES AT MAIDENHEAD RE QATTA.—After the races at Maidenhead Regatta on Thurs day had concluded, a deplorable accident, resulting in the loss of threo lives, occurred on the Thames near the Great Western railway-bridge, in the Bray Roach. Between nine and ten o'clock a pleasure boat, containing eight per sons, were being pulled across the stream, and au eight-oar manned by Etonians came into collision with it. Both boats were overturned and the occupants immersed. A scene of painful excitement and anxiety succeeded. The Eton boys, who were good swimmers, did their utmost to save the lives of the parties thrown out of the other boat, and to some extent succeeded, but, notwithstanding the efforts made, George Tubb, a carpenter, 20 years, Anne Pocock, and Eliza Ayres, 10 years (whose father is a carman) met a watery grave. Tubb was a sailor and could swim well, but it is supposed that he was borne down by ono of the females. All the bodies were recovered yesterday and re moved to the King's Arms Hotel, where an inquest will be held. ODD NUMBERS.—Sir James V. Simpson stated recently, at the Obstetrical Society of Edinburgh, that ho had seen seven cases iu Edinburgh of intrauerino am putation, all of the left arm;' with rudimentary fingers existing; and he remarked, that it was almost waiver sally the left arm. He calculated, some years ago, that if this deformity were as common elsewhere as in Edin burgh —as was probably the fact—some 40,000 or 50,000 such single-handed individuals probably ex isted in the world. Ho related the case of a girl who had neither arms nor legs, residing in the Highlands; also a Student, and lately an A. 31. of the University of Edinburgh, without arms, who wrote his exercises with his feat. — Briti4 Medical Journal; DIE SUN, LON 1, ON, SATUItoA Y EVENING, JULY 27, 1867.

OP PLANTATIONS.-CANTERBURY, July 26. —Up to within the last few days considerable apprehen sion existed among the hop growers in the important dis trict of East Kent that this year the crop would be a failure, and this feeling extended to West Kent. At the time re ferred to the plants, with very few exceptions, wore thickly populated with vermin, and the leaf much discoloured by honeydew. Tho rains of the past few days, and especially the thunder storm on Friday morning, have to a great ea tent removed these deterrent influences, and at least half a crop is now looked forward to. The Austrian journals state that the Emperor Francis Joseph, on loarning the execution of hie brother Maximilian, declared that he would never again pign a doath-warrant. LAW INTELLIGENCE—This Day. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT. (Before Vice-Chancellor Stuart.) THE GOVERNORS OF CHRIST'S HOSPITAL V. TIIE LON- DON, CHATHAM, AND DOVER RAILWAY COMPANY. In this case there were a petition and a cause, and the object of the plaintiffs was to recover possession of some land which the defendants had agreed to purchase at Ludgate-hill for the purposes of their railway, but they, becoming insolvent, were unable to perform their contract. His Honour referred the petition to Chambers, and ordered the case to stand over. ROBERTS V. MASSIF. In this case the plaintiff, a married woman, was confined in a lunatic asylum, and the petition was presented on her behalf by her next of kin. She had been married twice, and had a son by her first hus band, on whom £5)O was settled with a reversion to her in the event of his death. She married again ; her husband Eqandered her money and deserted her, Her son died, and she having previously obtained a protection, now claims the reversion in question and £412, to which it was decided in another suit he was entitled. It further appeared that the Master of the Rolls bad decreed, in 1866, that £3O a year should be applied to the maintenance and education of the son ; but that amount was not paid, and had accumulated. The plaintiff now ap plied for the settlement of the accounts, and the payment of the money into court, and also prayed for an inquiry into her state of mind, with a view of knowing if she was competent to manage her affairs. His Honour decided that the last part of the prayer should be referred to Chambers, and granted the other two applications. POLICE INTELLIGEffCE.—This Day. MARLBOROUGH-STREET.- A STORY OIL• MlSERY.—Charles, Alfred, and Mary Peck, three children, were charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with begging. Police-constable Joseph Edwards,"224 0, said that about half-past five yesterday afternoon, his attention was called by a lady to the children, who were singing and begging in Davies-street, Berkeley-square. It was rain ing hard at the time, and on his speaking to them they said their mother had sent them out since two o'clock to get some halfpence, as she was sick. Ile took the children to the station, and afterwards went to where they lived in Suffolk-place, Edgware-road,. and found the home one of the most wretched description, there being scarcely a vestige of furniture in the placo. Tho father of the children was lying down and the mother nursing an infant, they having six children. On inquiry at the Marylebone Workhouse, he found that the family had received relief. Mr. Tyrwhitt told tho constable that he had done very well in looking the matter up, and asked him whether he saw the childron receive any money. The constable said he did not. The mother of the children said she did not send them out to beg. Her eldest boy was unable to go out, as she had been compelled to pledge his guitar. She only sent the children to Seven Dials to get some songs. Her hus band was convicted throe years ago for deserting her and his family, and while he was in prison she had, with her children, to go into Marylebone workhouse, and her hus band had been idle since. The constable stated that tho children had some frag ments of songs with them. The mother asked for her children to be given up. Mr. Tyrwhitt said he was afraid the children were sent out with the impression that it being a rainy day they would get more given them. He would give the children up, and havo inquiries made respecting the mother, and if she was found to bo a decent woman, something should bo done for her. THAMES. Mr. Elliott, of the Lambeth police-court, officiated for Mr. Paget, and took his seat on the bench at 10 o'clock. There were only six charges for him to hear. Edward Avon was fined 10s. for being drunk, Frank Woods was sentenced to ten days' imprisonment for un lawful possession of a bunch of onions; Ann Moore, charged with being drunk, was discharged ; no evidence was offered against Ellen Welch, charged with an assault; and Anne Wilson, too drunk yesterday, now reported sober, was discharged. Those few charges, in the densely popu lated district of the Thames police-court, is attributed to the heavy rains of yesterday and last night. Among the nume rous applicants was a poor woman named Eleanor Cooper, whose son, a fine boy about 14 years of age, lost his right arm at the manufactory of Tupper and Carr, Galvanized Ironworks, Commercial-road. The'boy's arm was drawn into the machinery and mangled, and amputation took place. Mr. Elliott said if the machinery was not properly guarded the lad would be entitled to campansation. If the accident was caused by any neglect on the part of the boy, he was afraid ho would obtain nothing. It was not a case in which he could interfere. Some respectable soli citor would probably advise the poor woman how to act iu the matter. MARKE TS.-- T his day. COVENT GARDEN.

TIIE SULTAN'S PIITSICIAN AT NETLEY.—MatCO Pasha, .Physician-in-Chief to the Sultan, and Director-General of the Medical Department of the Turkish Army, paid an official visit to the Royal Victoria Hospital, Notion on Tuesday, attended by Omar Bey. The Pasha miuutely inspected tile) hospital, and inquired into the details of its administration and the working of the Army Medical Elehool. This eminent person is, we understand, a Greek, educated in France. He speaks the language with the purest Parisian accent, and is evidently thoroughly acquainted with all the details of military medical administration. The Pasha holds the high rank of General of Division, and it is understood is much in the confidence of the Sultan. After partaking of luncheon at the medical staff mess, the visitors returned to London, well pleased with what they saw, and with their reception. —The Lancet. NEW ROMAN CATHOLIC COLLEGE.—Dr. Grant, Bishop of Southwark, laid the foundation stone of a new college at Beaumont, near Windsor, on Wednesday after noon, in the presence of a large number of distinguished members of that communion, it is to be known as OP College of St. ptaniglituti. • - HE MYS7ERIOUS TRAGEDY AT LIME. HOUSE. LATEST PARTICULARS THIS DAY. This morning it was ascertained that John Wiggins was not sufficiently recovered from the effects of the wound in his throat to allow of his removal from the London Hospital, and it has been decided to keep him in the hospital ward a few days longer. There is not the slightest danger of his death taking place, and he is rapidly recover ing. The police arc on duty in the hospital watching him. As there is a rumour that Wiggins while he was in the hospital made what is called "a confession,'' we are in a position to state that such is not the fact. He has made a statement to the police, but it is not a confession. The rumour was very current through out the East end, and it had gained a wide c"rcula tion. Dr. Horton has made a second examination of the body of the deceased since the jury met yester day afternoon for the purpose of ascertaining whether there there were any signs of scars or cuts upon the hands. There are none. A young woman states that when she first saw the body of the de ceased on the morning of the fatal occurrence, the hands were clenched—they were grasped convul sively. Wiggins has stated to some of the witnesses in the case that he took the fatal knife out of the deceased's hand after she was dead. An interesting question in connection with the medical evidence will be as to whether the hand of a dead person is likely to become clenched after death has taken place. Some important evidence has been procured, and a woman named Sarah Martena, living at 3, Rhode ville-road, Limehouse, has come forward and stated that at 2 o'clock on the Wednesday morning she heard loud screams coming from the direction of the house ; and another witness will prove that Wig gins had been drunk on,l.he Tuesday night before he returned home. The Storms of Yesterday. IMMENSE LOSS OF PROPERTY. A storm of lightning, thunder, and rain visited the metropolis and the suburban districts yesterday, which for its violence and the destruction of pro perty occasioned thereby has not been equalled since the memorable tempest of Saturday the Ist of August, some 19 or 20 years ago. This storm, we regret to state, has been attended with a far greater destruction of property than that before alluded to, and will be bitterly felt by the poor ; for notwith standing the present high price of provisions, the damage done by the storm must as a natural sequence tend to increase the price of the staple article of food. According to the readings of Capt. Fitzroy's storm glass at Messrs. Negretti and Zambra's estab lishment in Hatton-garden, although the principal part of Thursday was sa fine, the sun shining with much brilliancy and not a fleeting cloud to be seen, the glass indicated that in, less than a dozen hours the metropolis would be visited by a storm of no little fury, which would not be confined to rain alone, but would also be accompanied with light ning, wind, and thunder. Unfortunately the glass, to the no small astonishment of we "Londoners," turned out to be correct, and property . .valued at a high amount has been sacrificed in the metropolis and surrounding districts, while several hundred workmen have for a time been thrown out of em ployment. This storm began as early as 10 o'clock on Thurs day night. At first only a few drops of rain fell, which, owing to the sultry state of the weather, it was stated and firmly believed were only "heat drops," but such a change in less than five or ten minutes came " o'er the scene" as to even terrify men of the strongest nerve. Lightning, forked and sheet, shot through the air. At the corner of the Albany-road, Camberwell, the electric fluid riddled an umbrella, broke the metal rods, and nearly blinded the nun carrying it. At the same time rain fell in tor rents; and gardens on the south side of the Thames, especially in the neighbourhood of EpsCan, Ewell, and Cheam, had the plants literally washed out of the ground, and they were sent floating down the high roads in terrible confusion. Trees nearly a hundred years old, which have stood many a pitilesa storm, were broken asunder, and in some cases up rooted. Many pleasure-gardens and parks about Kenning ton and Camberwell had their trees dismantled, beds of flowers were uprooted, and even the gravel walks were washed away. The main drainage works, ex tending from Addington-square to Southampton street, Camberwell, were completely inundated, and all hands were obliged to cease work until the water is pumped out. _ _ At Beckenham, which lies high, the rain fell iu such torrents that it ran down the declivity, filled a cottage to the first-floor; and it is stated that a poor child was carried down the hill and terribly con tused. Sydenham-hill presented a fearful aspect, the lower portion of the lands resembling an immense sheet of water, many imagining that the river had overflowed. The houses at the bottom of the hill had at least 18 inches of water in the basement, and at one time the occupants made a precipitate retreat, expecting momentarily that the water would reach their bedrooms. At the premises of Mr. Roy, not fewer than 11 fowls and 33 pigeons were drowned by the rain that fell. The country residence of Mr. llarris, of the Equestrian Tavern in the Blackfriars road, was for some time under water. Upon the breaking up of the storm the water passed away, and no material damage was done. A scene such as has rarely been witnessed in the neighbourhood of Esher is thus described by Mr. Tredwell, the great naturalist. He states that after leaving the South-Western Railway he took a cab for the purpose of proceeding to Egham. He had hardly got a quarter of a mile when the water oozed through the bottom of the vehicle and he became immersed up to his knees. Fearing that he would have to encounter greater difficulties if he proceeded farther, he told the cabman to return, but as he was doing so the water rose higher and higher still until it reached his armpits. The work of de vastation amongst the flower gardens in this district is most deplorable. Chertscy, which lies somewhat higher, has also suffered severely by the violence of the storm, but the. beautiful grounds of Mr. Biddleco:ne of the Royal Hotel, Owing,. to the judicious precautions adopted by that gentleman, have sustained .very little damage. Ellesmere, looking into Chertsey, stands upon an eminence nearly 100 ft. from the old turnpike road, and the water fell in such torrents that only one vehicle was able to pass in the morning, and that was the fish van from. Billingsgate. The corn in the district, brown and ripe in ear, and almost ready to be cut, has been beaten down upon the earth, and it is feared has been nearly spoiled. Along the Chatham and Dover Railway a strange scene presents itself. Every bit of hollow ground is under water, even the permanent way of the line is rendered almost impassable. The trains in conse quence have been from ono to nearly two hours be hind their advertised times, the water in the cutting being so deep as to reach the fire boxes of the engin es.s The South-Western Railway did not escape the ravages of the storm. Between Datchet and Wind sor the ponds overflowed, covere d the metals, and n early reached the fire boxes; b u t with the excep tion of a few detentions of the trains, everything passed off tolerably well. Such, however, was not the case on the Great Northern Railway ; for persons who had to pass from Hatufield, S to wadet. Albans,through and oththe er p l a ces adjacent, were nable water to reach thencevarious station from whence they intended to ped to London.s The waterside premises on the banks of the river Thames have been completely inundated, and great damage has been done to the cellar stock by the in flux of water. About Battersea and Fulham the loss by the overflow of the Thames and the great fall of rain has been most extensive. Many parts of the Thames Embankment are flooded, and the works are in many portions of it entirely stopped.

Since the Trafalgar has been in harbour she has been surveyed by the offi cials connected with the master shipwright's staff, and from the report made upon her there is no pro bability that she will be again placed in commission and she may be expected shortly to follow the other vessels which hwe been sold out of the navy. The Waterwitch, 4, hydraulic propelled gunvessel, Commander P. R. Sharpe ; the Viper, 4, double screw gunvessel, Commander H. E. Crozier ; and the Vixen, 4, double screw gunvessel, Commander C. D.

The Himalaya, screw troopship, Capt. S. Piers, arrived at Portsmouth yesterday from the Mauritius, last from Queenstown and Portland. The Coast guard squadron, under the command of Commodore J. Tarleton, C. 8., arrived in Portland Roads from the Channel on Thursday evening. The St. George, 72, screw Coastguard line-of battle ship, 500 horse power, Capt. M. S. Nolloth, has gone into Portsmouth harbour to be docked, &c., previous to returning to her station. Mr. E. J. Reed, Chief Constructor of the Navy, arrived at Portsmouth yesterday morning from London, and, with a gunboat placed at his disposal, was busily engaged during the day on board the ships anchored at Spithead. His Italio : Majesty's corvette Iride, Capt. Rat facile Noce, ,sailed from Spithead yesterday after noon for. the Mediterranean. A NEW CEMENT, M. Sorel last week communicated to the Academy of Sciences a new cement, being a basic hydrated oxychloride of magnesium. It may be obtained by slacking magnesia with a solution of chloride of magnesium in a more or less concentrated state. The denser tha solution the harder it becomes on drying. This magnesium cement is the whitest an d hardest of all those known to this day, and it can be moulded like plaster, in which case the cast ac quires the hardness of marble. It will take any colour, and has been used by the inventor for mosaics, imitations of ivory, billiard balls, &c. The new cement possesses the agglutinative property in the highest degree, so that solid masses may be made with it at a very low cost by mixing it up on a large scale with substances of little value. One part of magnesia may be incorporated with upwards of 20 parts of sand, limestone, and other inert sub stances, to form hard blocks ; while lime and other cements will hardly admit of the incorporation of two or three times their weight of extraneous mat ter. By means of these artificial blocks building may easily be carried on in places where materials for the purpose are scarce. All that is required is simply to convey a quantity of magnesia and chloride of magnesium to the spot, if there be none to be had there, and then to mix them up with sand, pebbles, or any other matter of the kind close at hand ; blocks can then be made of any shape, and imitating hewn stone. This magnesian cement may be obtained at very low cost, especially if the mag nesia be extracted from the mother ley of salt works, either by M. Balard's process, whereby magnesia and hydrochloric acid are obtained at the same time, or else by decomposing the ley, which always contains a large proportion of chloride of magnesium, by means of quicklime, which by double composition yields magnesia and chloride of lime containing a certain quantity of chloride of magnesium, and which, with the addition of vari ous other cheap substances, may be used for whitewashing. SHORT WEIGHT. Fifty-two tradesmen were fined at the Newing ton sessions this week for having in their posses sion unjust weights, scale; and measures. The list comprised 19 licensed victuallers and beer retailers, 7 grocers and cheesemongers, 4 butchers, 1 ham and beef dealer, 1 oilman, 6 bakers, 2 chandlers, 6 coal-dealers, 1 corn chandler, 1 marine-store dealer, 2 leather merchants, 1 iron merchant, and 1 copper smith. The fines amounted to £7B 6s. The wife of one of the defaulters, Mrs. Scott, 205, South ampton-street, Camberwell, appeared to plead her husband's cause, and behaved in such a disrespect ful manner to the bench that the chairman threat ened to have her removed. She held that the inspector ought to have warned her first ; and flatly declared that the law was unjustly car-• ried out. "It is scandalous," she added " that people who pay rent and taxes should have to come here." Evidently, Mrs. Scott thinks she 'ought to pay rent and rates out of the profits gained by unjust weights. There were several very bad cases brought to light. Edward Sturley, grocer, Princes-street, Walworth-road, had placed a piece of putty under one of his scales—a proceeding which the chairman justly termed a " gross robbery." Henry J. White, grocer, Hill street, Newington, had inserted a penny under one scale and a farthing under another, and actually pleaded badness of trade as an excuse. John R. Hennessey had a machine in his possession with a piece of soap under it, and tried to put the blame upon his wife. John Wright, grocer, Wyndham road, Camberwell, was fined £5 (second offence) for having ioz. weight of cards under a machine. Donald Scott, baker, Kent-street, a member of St. George's vestry, was fined £2 10s. for having six unstamped weights in his possession, while all the weighed-up flour was found to be deficient in weight. This " gentleman" supplies the workhouse with bread—about 1,500 loaves per week. Evi dently, imprisonment without a fine is the only punishment that will prevent cases like the fore going.—South London Press. THE SLADE CASE.,—A_paragraph which originally appeared in the Owl, and has been copied into otherpapers, to the effect that this case has been compromised, is a inis representation of the true facts, which are as follow: —Bo - fore the trial commenced an arrangement was made by the plaintiff and son with the defendant that the unsuccessful party lathe Court of Exchequer, if he chose to accept the 'civeisii:;ti as final within 23 days This of lodgment, sh ould.bave a right to Slade to his costs from the successful party.and his arrange ment has been a cted upon by sop, who have announced their intention of not appealing, and will sign a deed confirming Sir A.

THE SCARCITY OF HARVEST LABOURERS.—The scarcity of laboureis competent to reap the corn in southern counties has iLduced farmers to f)rm small companies for the purchase of horse reaping-machines to cut the corn at the approaching harvest. Many of these " reapers" will clear 10 to 15 acres a-day, and women and children are employed in tying the corn into sheaves.
