ONEY MARKET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE, TWELVE O'CLOCK. There is no increase of business in the market for discounts, the transactions being of an exceedingly limited character. The rates are as easy as ever, and there are no signs of any impending change. The sum of £6,000 in bar gold was taken to the Bank of England on Saturday. It is stated by telegram from New York, dated 24th inst., that the shipments of specie for Europe in steamers leaving that day amounted to about half a million dollars. The accounts from the manufacturing districts for the past week state that rather more animation has prevailed in most departments of trade. At Manchester, however, dulness has prevailed, and Owing to the unfavourable advices from the East Indies prices of both cloths and yarns have given way. In the woollen districts of Leeds, Bradford, and Huddersfield operations in autumn and winter goods have been to a fair extent at fully previous values. The hosiery and lace trades of Leicester and Nottingham have been seasonably heavy, while in the hardware districts a more cheerful tone has generally prevailed in most departments of business. The Supplies of new home-grown wheat on offer 111 the Cora Market to-day were exceedingly liberal, but there was very little inquiry, and quotations Were fully 2s. to 3s. per quarter lower. Foreign Wheat also experienced a decline of about I.s. to 2s. Per quarter. A notification has been issued by Messrs. Baring to the effect that they are authorised by the Spanish Government to carry out the conversion of the seve ral classes of the Passive Debt. If the conversion be made within 30 days the new bonds will carry interest from the Ist of January last. If it be de ferred till after the 24th of September they carry interest only from the Ist of July next. On the 31st of December the conversion will be closed. The terms offered are those that were unhesitatingly rejected at the recent meeting of bondholders. Atlantic and Great Western Railway Deben tures remain. at 23 25 ; and the Consolidated Mort gage Bonds at 20j. 21i. With regard to the tea market the following is fr °ra Messrs. Layton and Co.'s circular :—The tea Market during the past fortnight has continued in very depressed condition, and prices must be quoted lower for all descriptions. The tele grams received from China, reporting large shipments, have produced increased heaviness, espe cially in the finer grades of Congou, which show a haaterialdecline, whileat auction the medium to good qualities, both of black and red leaf, have gone at a reduction of Id. to 2d. per lb. The business by Private contract is, perhaps, rather above the average, owing to the decided willingness of holders to realise old stocks, but the actual de mand is very moderate, and, notwithstanding the satisfactory deliveries, home buyers are with difficulty tempted to operate, unless at still lower prices.

Common Japan green teas, and scented orange pekoes, were also rather cheaper, There h ave b een no arrivals to this port since our last. The stock of tea in the United , Kingd o m , the Ist instant, was estimated at 82,077,0001b5., against 95,037,0001b5. last year. Two o'CLocK.

Ile dulness of the weather, the absence of so larg o .a Proportion of the City frequenters, and the s eemi ng indisp os i t i on on the part of the public to Peculate freely, there is for the moment less buoy ancy in the market for stocks and shares.

The brig Day Star arrived off Gravesend on Fri day, in charge of the chief mate and a portion of the crew of the ship Golden Dream, now on her voyage to Japan, having picked her up at sea with a portion of her crew dead under shocking circum stances. The report made by the chief mate of the Golden Dream is as follows :—" At 5.30 a.m. on the 15th July, St. Nicholas, one of the Cape de Verde Islands, bearing N.E., distant about forty five miles, saw a sail two points on our star board bow. As we approached saw that sh e had a signal of distress flying in her main riggi ng , and her sails all aback. On getting within hail, asked her what was the matter. A very feeble voice answered, The ship is half full of water, and all our crew are dying with fever.' Our captain ordered a boat to be lowered, and I put off to the vessel, our captain giving strict orders to be careful in boarding. On getting alongside we found her to be the brig Day Star, from Bathurst, Rio Grande, bound to London in ballast. On boarding her, found the crew in the last stage of exhaustion. They were lying on the deck, some evidently dying. The chief mate of her could just manage to crawl about, and he referred me to the ship's log-book for information. In it I found that the day after thu ship's Bailin°. from Bathurst a fever broke out, which in a few days c ompletely prostrated the entire cr e w, t wo on l y being able to navigate the ship, and these were subsequently stricken down and the ship laid helpless. On the 19th of July, one able seaman named H. Nichols was the first to perish from the effects of the fever. He was found dead in his berth. His corpse was at once committed to the deep. The next victim was the master, Captain Lever, then a cabin boy, and so went on till only five remained alive, and these were considered in a dying condition when I went on board the vessel. The vessel, when off Mayo, sent a fisherman to ask permission to anchor the brig Day Star off the island. The Portuguese boat came off with a letter from her Britannic Majesty's Consul stating that, as the ship had sickness on board, it would not be permitted, and directed her to proceed to St. Vincent; and it was while she was thus proceeding that she was fallen in with by the Golden Dream. On attempting to leave, the survivors implored to be taken into my boat, as they knew they should all die. I told them not to think I intended to abandon them, but I must report the condition of the vessel to my captain, and that I would soon return. I then had the steward lowered into the boat, and took him with me to the Golden Dream. Captain Wise, on hearing the condition of the ship, determined to remove the survivors to his ship, which was directly done, and they received every comfort and attention. Five of our crew volun teered with me to return to England and take to the pumps, and succeeded in pumping the water out. They then well washed and fumigated the cabins, and made sail for London. The crew of the Day Star went on in the Golden Dream to Japan." SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE.—ThIs Day.

The imports of foreign grain, &e., into London last week consisted of 25,681 quarters of wheat, 2,874 barley, 39,075 oats, 3,205 beans, 5,983 peas, 157 tares, 150 linseed, 10,798 rapeseed, 5,610 maize, 4,191 sacks, and 8,4-16 barrels of flour. The supply of old English wheat on sale hero to-day was very limited--of new, seasonably extensive. 0 wing to the favourable accounts at hand in reference to tho progress of harvest-work, and to the yield of the now crops, the de mand for both rod and white qualities was heavy at a de cline in the .quotations, compared with Monday last, of from 2s. to 3s. per quarter. At that decline a clearance Was not effected. The show of foreign wheat was good. Even the finest samples wore neglected, and prices gave way ls. to 2s. per quarter. 127 k 501 I 50 I There was a fair demand for floating cargoes of wheat at about previous rates. Barley, owing to its scarcity, was quite as dear as last week. Tho malt trade was heavy, and late rates wore barely supported. The supply of malt was tolerably good. Oats maintained their previous value, with a steady con sumptive demand. The few beans on the stands commanded full quotations. Peas were quite as dear as last week. The flour trade was heavy, and prices had a drooping tendency. Country flour was offering at quite is per 2801bs. less money. Samples of new Eng'ish barley, grey peas, and white mustard-seed were on offer in good condition. Prices, however, were uncertain. Barley was held at 40s, and grey peas at the same price. Agricultural seeds supported previous rates. In cakes very little was doing. CURRENCY PER IMP.

There was a fair average supply of foreign stock on offer here to-day. The general condition of the beasts was inferior, of the sheep and calves good. Sales progressed slowly, and prices were a shade lower than last week. Compared with Monday last, the arrivals of English boasts were rather on the increase; but the quality of most breeds was only middling. On the whole, the be f trade was in a sluggish state. Prime Scots, short horns, &c., sold at full prices, but inferior stock was rather cheaper. The top quotation was 53 per 81bs. From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton shire, we received about 1,560 short horns, &c. ; from other parts of England, 600 various broods; from Scot land, 8 Scots ; and from Ireland, 160 cows, &c., the latter in very poor condition. We were again but moderately supplied with sheep, the quality of which was by no means first-rate. Primo Downs and half-breds realised full quotations; but in ferior breeds were rather cheaper. Tho highest price was 5s 4d per 81bs. Lambs— the supply of which was seasonably good— moved off heavily at late rates, viz., from 4s 6d to 5s 6d per 81bs. W o had a dull sale for calves at drooping prices. Tho highest figure was 5s 2d per Blb3. The supply of foreign calves was extensive. 1006 100 112 11} The demand for pigs was heavy at barely stationary week consisted of 12,331 bales from the Cape of Good Hope, 8,196 New Zealand, 1,530 Sydney, and 215 bales from Port Philip.

The York running has altered the St. Leger betting, the hollow defeat of Vauban by Colonel Pearson's filly having sent the Duke's horse to 16 to 1, whilst 5 to 2 is freely taken about Achievement. There can be no ques tion that this splendid filly must have boon " dead amiss" at Epsom and Ascot, or, worse still, must have been " got at" before she ran in the Oaks. Individually, like many others, I thought her defeat was attributable to inability to get over a distance of ground, but in the face of the Groat Yorkshire Stakes, which is one mile and three quarters, that theory cannot be correct, she having won in a canter by at least ten lengths. Hermit still continues re markably firm in the market, and deservedly so, but his winning the Great Northern event is by no means the certainty it is evidently considered by his party. Fit and well at the post, it is reduced to a match between the pair who always proved themselves when in form a long way the best of their year. The talent appear to be laying odds on the two coupled. Julius is supported in very good quarters for large sums of money, and having made ex traordinary improvement since the Derby will most likely run into a situation. Challenge, who has been purchased by the Marquis of Hastings, will probably have a spin before the day with the Two Thousand Guineas winner ; but, good handicap horse as he has proved himself, he will find the company too good for him at Doncaster either to win or even bo mentioned by the judge. According to the Ebor Handicap running, for which Gomei-a gave the Marqufs's late purchase 261 b and a beating, it would be putting the Duke's mare in the St. Leger at lOst 81b, and who would back her on those terms ? It may be objected as unfair to handicap the Goodwood Stakes winner so much above racing weights ; in that case, suppose she carried Bst 101 b, and Hermit, Achievement, or Julius two stone less, what earthly chance would she have ? The principal handicap at York was won by Mandrake, who landed some largo " books," as well as heavy stakes for his party, amongst whom may be mentioned Messrs. Jackson, Steel, Nicholls, &c., &c. There can be no ques tion the race was won by ono of the luckiest " flukes" on record, but I presume the owner of - Doeswing, whose mare ought to have won, did not wish to let the public know how good his mare was, otherwise it is natural to suppose, unless he had received instructions to that effect, Pryor would nut have pulled Beeswing back to the others, but have come away and won by half a dozen lengths, which he might have done. One fact is very certain, that Cameron, to the delight of his partizans and the bookmakers gene rally, stole a march on her jockey, and won by his head. Mr. B. Johnson deserves great praise for having made de • Cidedly the best handicap of the year, which, consequently, brought out a superior field, in point of quality, to what we have seen together in any handicap this season, and from the great chance they seemed to possess induced the public to back at least a dozen of the animals engaged for large sums of money. There are no less than six different meetings to be run off in different parts of the country this week, and, as a guide to your subscribers, underneath is a list in tabular form of the different stakes which will be contested for at each place, together with my selection. As most of the horses are engaged at several of the meetings, they would be best let alone till their numbers go up. A FRESH MAN. (From the Newmarket Correspondent of the Racing Timis.) The York Meeting just past will long be memor able for the defeat of so many favourites, for although the past week has not been so disastrous to the backers of horses as in the two former years they had a very bad time of it. It will be seen that Vauban was the only horse that won during the meeting with odds on him in the Biennial, and what bookmakers could have fielded for in that race is passing strange, yet they took as short odds as they did about him in the Great Yorkshire S takes, where he had Achievement to meet. I partly prepared your readers last week for the defeat of Vauban and Moulsey, as I was quite sure the course would not suit Lord Bateman's horse, and that Vauban had to be ridden to beat the second rate Tyne dale for the Goodwood Cup. The Duke of Beaufort is one of the most fortunate men on the turf, as he has won some large stakes with a moderate horse. I must boldly ask what he ever beat ? He won the Biennial by only a head from Wroughton ; and what has the latter done since ? He was beat in the Derby by a horse that was not fit to run for a shilling, as every one knew Hermit was only the shadow of his former self on the Derby day. I boldly stated last week that Julius would beat him in their places for the Leger, and I have several times mentioned in these columns that he would have no chance with Hermit pro vided the latter came fit to the post, and now, as Achieve ment is herself agar], I must give her the preference over Mr. Chaplin's horse, as she could have beat Vauban with another stone on her back; and never, in the history of racing, were two favourites, with odds on them, easier defeated than Vauban and Moulsey. Again, if John Day thought Vauban had any chance of beating Hermit in the St. Leger it was bad judgment to hack him about the country, from Goodwood to York, whilst his former conqueror was doing a good preparation at Newmarket. It is really surprising to see a horse backed for so many thousands for the Leger while he is running all over the country. As every one knows horses can't run for ever. Danebury has no more chance of winning the St. Leger than the writer of this, so long as Hermit and Achievement keep well, and all those who have read the R ac ing Times for the last month will now see that I was quite right in asserting that Vauban had no chance to beat Hermit. The Marquis of Hastings has bought Chal lenge for 3,500 guineas, but he is not worth half the money. What chance oan he have for the Leger ? I must admit he is a fair handicap horse ; but the quality of horses he has had to meethave been very moderate, and we all saw Gomora got before him in the Ebor Handicap, giving him 2st, and how, in the name of common sense, would John Day try a Leger horse with Gomera ? Challenge is not worth £l,OOO for racing purposes, as he is not a cup horse, and will never get in a handicap again with any chance of winning, at any rate this year. I have no doubt I shall be found fault with for writing so plain, and condemning horses that other writers think so much of ; but it will be remembered I wrote quite as plain before the Two Thousand Guineas, as I then wrote the following words:—" I don't care a rush for what Mat Dawson thinks; Julius is too light, and can't win either the Guineas or Derby ;" and I stated that the Dragon is what an Irishman would call a " Garron," when other writers wore lauding him up to the skies. I publicly stated that the only credentials he had was that the Frenchman had once a Gladiatenr in the same stable. I wrote all those things from what I saw the horses do on Newmarket Heath, and as "Augur" justly remarks, " What on earth can a man know about horses that always sticks in London?" I went to Newmarket to see Guy of Warwick, when there was so much fuss made about him for the Goodwood Stakes, and certain writers selected him to win. lat once pro nounced him a regular duffer, as it was plain from his style of going that he had no earthly chance of over winning a great race. I am afraid I have dwelt too long on the merits of the Leger horses, but I have only told your readers a plain unvarnished tale, as 1 don't profess to come up to the standard of a first class writer, nor do I think a eporting writer requires a college education to convey his ideas of horses to his reader, for it must be admitted that first class writers make some fearful mistakes about horses. I have neither time nor space to go through the perform ances of the different horses that ran during the week, and if 1 were allowed to tell the secrets of the prison house, I saw one or two cases of roping, which I hope the gallant Admiral saw as well as myself, as he will soon have to perform on those animals for the Cosarewitch and Cambridge,and it is quite certain there have been a lot of horses running lately with an eye to those two great races, and a lot of them have been kept on the quiet, likewise thinking they will get well in. Before taking my leave of the York Meeting, I must allude to the disgraceful scene in the ring on Thurs day, when a notorious welsher was nearly torn to pieces. This reminds me forcibly of the old system of bull-baiting, when wo used to see a lot of dogs worry a bull. Such scenes are disgraceful in enlightened England. Surely there must be a remedy to prevent these vagabonds from gaining admittance into a ring at any of our race meet ings. Wily not send Mr. William Elliot to all the meet ings, and have them all turned out, as no one knows those scoundrels better than he does? He pointed out one of those fellows to us lately, with the name of G. Webb, a respectable bookmaker of London, on his bag, and ho ordered the fellow out of the ring directly. I have no doubt if Mr. Elliot was placed in authority at all the race meetings ho would soon rid the ring of such scoundrels. There are several meetings next week, but I am not in a position to know what is likely to run, therefore I shall merely state what I consider well in at Derby and Lichfield. There are 24 acceptances for the Tradesmen's Plato at Derby, and if Mrs. Allan can't win with 6st 21b, she ought to be turned out of training, and the same may bo saidabout Life Guardsman in the Moira Handicap. Lord Ronald is in such form just now that he will nearly win the Chatsworth Stakes with all his weight. Mrs. Stratton will win the Drake ' IoW Makes.
