MONEY MARKET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE, TWELVE O'CLOCK. A rather active business is reported in the gene ral discount market, and the rates are consequently very firm at their present level. There were no gold operations of importance at the Bank of England yesterday. The Chartered Mercantile Bank of India, Lon don, and China have declared a dividend to-day at the rate of 3 per cent., free of income tax, for the half-year ending the 30th inst., payable on the Ist proxi mo. Atlantic and Great Western Railway Debentures remain steady at 31 33, and the Consolidated Mortgage Bonds at 25 26. The traffic receipts on the Great Luxembourg Railway Company for the last week show an in- ' crease of £1,397 as compared with the correspond ing period last year, while the Metropolitan exhi bits an addition of only £262 for the like period. At the meeting of the shareholders of the Bank of London the proposals of the liquidators were agreed to, and resolutions adopting the report of the committee empowering them to carry out the project were unanimously passed. An immediate application will now be made to the Court of Chan cery to give effect to the proposed arrangements. With regard to the tea trade Messrs. Layton and Co., in their circular, state as follows :—Since our report of 9th inst. the tea market has continued without any material alteration, and the home de mand has not been sufficiently active to induce general buying on the part of the trade ; exporters have, however, operated rather more freely in the common descriptions of blackish-leaf Congou, which may be quoted firm at fully previous rates to a shade advance. The recent arrivals have afforded a very poor assortment, and it is unlikely that the few vessels now afloat will bring anything but third-crop qualities, so that the me dium and fine must be selected from parcels already in warehouse, of which the former have to some ex tent been held back by importers. Prices for green teas, especially the finest qualities, have been well maintained. The small auctions of China tea, which commenced on the 18th instant, were brought to a conclusion the same day ; 8,822 packages passed, of which 6,583 were sold, all without reserve. The sales passed without any material alteration from previous rates : common to fair blackish leaf Congou brought 11/d. to ls. per lb. Two O'CLOCK. In the market for the English Funds a few pur chases on the part of investors has caused a more buoyant tone. Consols have improved I, being now 941 / for money, and 94/ 951 for the account.

SHAMEFUL CRUELTY.—Henry Rumble, a young man, living at Langley, Essex, was charged before Mr. Knox by the Royal Society for the Protection of Cruelty to Animals with cruelty to a horse, by working it while in an unfit state. Hayward, one of the officers of the society, while in the Tottenham-court-road, saw a horse attached to a waggon laden with hay, the horse appearing to be in great pain. Ile asked the defendant if he was the driver, and he said he was, and that he had driven the horse 30 miles. On examining the horse he found it very lame, in a wretched condition, worn out, and totally unfit for work. The defend ant, when he took him into custody, asked to be allowed to go, stating that the horse belonged to his father. Mr. Knox said the best course would be to send the horse to the Greenyard, and summon the owner. The defendant said they did not work the horse often, and the reason why ho used it was because he had to bring some hay up to pay the rent. The defendant was remanded on his own recog nisance that his father might attend. STEALING GOLD LACE.— William King, a young man, a tailor, in'the employ of Messrs. Hill, mili tary tailors, No. 3, Old Bond-street, was charged before Mr. Knox with stealing 2} yards gold lace, the property of his employers. Mr. W. Foyle, foreman in the employ of Messrs. Hill, said that on Saturday last he gave the pri soner a pair of uniform trousers to alter. Instead of altering the trousers the prisoner ripped off the gold lace and went away, leaving the trousers be hind. He was found at Barnet yesterday and brought back to Bond-street, when he admitted his guilt, and stated that he had sold the gold lace. In answer to Mr. Knox the witness stated that the prisoner had only been employed by the firm a fortnight, and since the robbery he had ascer tained that the prisoner had gone in a false name. Wm. Masters, 80 C., said that, on receiving the prisoner in custody, he said he had sold the lace, telling him where he had sold it, and on his going to the place he was informed that it had been sold again to a Jew. The prisoner choosing to be tried by the magis trate, Mr. Knox asked him if he wished to say any. thing. The prisoner said he had a widowed mother to support, and it was through . misfortune he had acted as he had done. Mr. Knox said the prisoner was in employ, and had no kind of excuse for his conduct. He would be committed for three months with hard labour. THAMES. UNMANLY ASSAULT ON A FEMALE.—Patrick Kennedy, an Irish labourer, was brought before Mr. Partridge, charged with assaulting a very respectable young woman, named Jane Elizabeth Cole, of No. 8, Old Andrew-street, Limebouse. The complainant was passing alcng the Commer cial-road last night, at half-past eight o'clock, and the prisoner came behind her, seized her, and tore her clothes. She ran across the road to avoid him, and he ran after her, and put his arms round her neck, and was proceeding to further acts of violence when her cries brought several persons to her aid, and they released her from the prisoner's grasp. Thomas Salmon, 421 K, saw the prisoner stand ing against a wall, and the female crying and in great distress. The prisoner was intoxicated and extremely violent. Several witnesses corroborated the statement of the complainant, and said she was very basely treated. The prisoner said he was drunk last night, and had no recollection of the occurrence. Mr. Partridge said that drunkenness was no ex cuse for crime. A gross outrage had been com mitted, and it was necessary to pass a severe sentence to put an end to such assaults on females in the public streets. He sentenced the prisoner to be imprisoned for two months, and kept to hard labour. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKS!—This Day Market quiet. Sales probably 8,000 bales. M. Benedict has kindly undertaken to conduct the musical arrangements of the Newspaper Press Fund Dinner on Saturday next. Among the artistes who have in the most generous manner placed their services at the disposal of the Committee are Mdlle. Enequist, Madame Cosenza, Madame Weiss, Miss Poole, Mr. Cummings, Mr. George Perren, and Mr. Weiss. The Committee are in debted to Messrs. Broad wood and Sons for the use of one of their finest grand pianofortes. Baron Ferdinand ,de Rothschild, whose young wife died in childbirth a few months ago, has determined to found an hospital to her memory. Direct action to this end has already been taken ; and a site for the projected building has been purchased on the east side of South wark Bridge-road. The establishment will be a lying-in hospital. It is the baron's intention to spend £lO,OOO on the building ; the site costs probably as much more. THE TREATMENT OF FENIAN CoNvicrs.--Yester day morning was issued the report to Parliament of Mr. A. Knox, the police magistrate, and Mr. G. D. Pol lock, who were appointed commissioners to inquire and re port upon the treatment of certain treason-felony convicts in English con'rict prisons. Tho report extends over 25 pages. It is to the effect that the complaints are ground less, and in some instances pure inventions. They assert that at their visits not only were the convicts properly fed and lodged, but exceptional pains were taken to make their position as tolerable as is consistent with true discipline. At Pentonvillo a temporary Roman Catholic chapel was fitted:up for their use, and the services of a priest wore ob tained. This gentleman's'evidence was to the effect that the prisoners had no just ground of complaint. It seems, however, that some of the men are in wretched health, and that the ordinary prison discipline is in their case very trying to bear. A letter has been published from Mr. W. F. I Taylor, Auditor of Public Accounts, Richmond, Virginia, dated the 27th ult., giving a description of the present con dition of the finances of that State. According to an Act passed by the General Assembly on the 2d of March, 1866, a dividend of 2 per cent. is to be paid on the State Bonds on the Ist of July next,.and 2 por cent. on the Ist of January, 1868, and these semi-annual payments are to be continued " until otherwise provided by law." The reduced rate thus aiopted is that " which the State feels obliged to pay until there is a settlement of accounts between the State of Virginia and the new State of West Virginia," the two having com prised one State until the civil war, when a portion broke off, and has since been constituted with an independent organisation. The arrears of dividends are to be funded on the same principle. Mr. Taylor intimates that the tax imposed by the Legislature of his State will bo amply sufficient to meet all the demands on the Treasury, and that there is nothina in the futui e he can foresee "to in duce the supposition that the interest on the public debt will not be regularly and punctually paid." .At the same time ho mentions that for the amount of interest held by the State in abeyance pending the question with West Virginia certificates will be furnished. The total of the State Debt on the 17th of April, 1861, at the commence ment of the war, was $34,977,298, or in round numbers £7,000,000 sterling, against which the State holds au interest in various railroads and the James River Canal to the amount of $27,963,300. Certain of the companies possess the power of redeeming their stock by paying State bonds for it at par. The portion over which this option extends is $11,285,718, and if the option be exercised as it is expected to be the State debt will be proportionably reduced. The balance of the railway stock, &c., then held by the Government will he $16,677,582. Shire Bristol and Exeter .... Caledonian Jambrian Oork and 8and0n......

The course of exchange at New York on London forbills at 60 days' sight is about 110 per cent. At this rate there is a •ma 1 profit on the importation of gold from the United States. COMPLIMENT TO CALEDONIAN M.P.'s. —A private London letter, from one with good opportunities of judg ing, somewhat rudely says:—".Depend upon it, from the feeling in the house, you have very little chance of getting more members.

COURT OF DIVORCE. (Before the Right 'lon. Sir J. P. Wilde.) SCOTT V. SCOTT. This was a suit instituted for a dissolution of marriage on the ground of the wife's adultery and drunkenness. Mr. Inderwick appeared for the petitioner, the respondent did not appear. According to the statement of the learned counsel it appeared that the parties were inar►ied many years ago at St. 'fellers in Jersey, and continued down to the year 1859 to live in that island in the utmost harmony, but, that the petitioner, in the March of that year came to London to fill a better situation. They resided at Chelsea, and it was alleged that (luting this residence the respondent committed adultery with various persons, and also according to the evidence of Mrs. Stewart, with whom they lodged, she on one occa sion when her husband was absent called in a broker and sold all the furniture, and ultimately left her husband. Another witness, a Mrs. Matthews, said that the respondent, after she left her husband, came to reside in her house, and would frequently bring men home, and on several occasions Gen. Remen called and inquired for Mme. Scott. This was at 17, Grove Cottage, Chelsea. One night, the day before she left, she brought home a man in a white jacket, whom, as the petitioner was a cooper, witness thought he was the petitioner Scott. She said the next morning that " she sup posed she had brought home Mr. Scott," when the respondent replied "it was her cousin." She replied that respondent's cousin had no right to be in her room all night, and that she would not have such goings on in her house. The learned Judge Ordinary said that he though the desertion and adultery had been fully proved and, therefore, he should grant a decree nisi. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. (Sittings at Nisi Prius before Mr. Justice Byles and a Common Jury.) LILLEY V. THE EARL OF CARDIGAN. This was an action brought by the plaintiff to re cover compensation in damages for false imprison ment and pecuniary loss sustained thereby, arrears of wages, &c. Mr. Iluddleston, Q.C., and Mr. Sleigh appeared for the plaintiff ; and Mr. Coleridge, Q.C., Mr. 7 Garth Q.C. and another learned gen tl eman for the defendant. The plaintiff was a groom of the chamber in Lord Cardigan's family for the last five years, having been previously employed as footman at his lord ship's. It appeared that Lady Cardigan had drawn a cheque on the London and Westminster Bank for .£lB I.6s.,which she enclosed in a registered letter, with the intention of sending it to a firm at Brighton, and was under the impression that she had given it to Lilley to post. Lord Cardigan ultimately gave Lilley into custody in March, 1866, on the charge of felony, and he was brought before the magistrates at Marylebone Police-court, and having been remanded for eight days, and bail having been refused, the case was sent to the Middlesex Sessions for trial, but the jury immediately acquitted Lilley. The expenses of defending him self cost Lilley nearly £l5O, and much injury was done to his books and other property, his boxes having been broken open pending the trial. It appeared, further, that his lordship acted prin cipally upon the information of his hall porter, a man named Hayes, since deceased, who said he had changed a note for Lilley, which was proved to have been paid at the London and Westminster Bank, but the impression produced on the mind of the jury was that Hayes was the party who stole the cheque. (The case was proceeding when we went to press: COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Registrar Roche.) IN PE JAMES HUTTON. The bankrupt was described as of 49, Essex street, Strand, and 17, Richmond-terrace, West bourne-grove, newspaper proprietor. Ile applied to the board, on his own petition, in consequence as lie alleged, of losses occasioned by the failure of the Day newspaper, of which he was the proprie- tor, and which newspaper he was unable to carry on by reason of inefficiency of capital. The Day, it will be remembered, was started a few months back as the organ of constitutional liberalism, and for the purpose of advocating the views of that section of politicians known as Adulla mites. The preliminary statement, filed by Messrs. Johnstone, Cooper, Wintle, and Evans, the accoun tants, returns the sum of from £2,000 to £3,000 as due to unsecured creditors, who are about 120 in number. The debts are principally of small amount, and vary from ss. and upwards, the claims of 86 of the creditors being under £lO. The following noblemen are also inserted in the list :—Lord Elcho for £1,500 ; Earl Grosvenor for £1,500 ; and the Earl of Lichfield for £9OO. In reference to these debts the bankrupt states--" I received the first and second of the above sums as loans to furnish me with capital to start the Day newspaper, and such sums were advanced upon the condition that if the paper was successful the amounts were to be repaid within a year, and if the newspaper failed within a year the above accounts were to be treated as gifts, and no claim made for the same. The third abovementionedsum was advanced upon similar terms after the paper had started, to assist in carrying it on. This was a sitting for choice of assignees. Messrs. W. and H. P. Sharp, of Gresham llouse, appeared as solicitors to the petition. Mr. Bagley said he appeared for Earl Grosvenor, Lord Elcho, and Lord Lichfield, to tender proofs on their behalf for money which they had lent the bankrupt to the amount of £12,000, for the purpose of assisting him in establishing a daily journal, feeling that their political views had been misunderstood and misrepresented. He then read letters embodying the terms upon which the advances were to be made, but distinctly disclaiming any intention on the part of the noble lords to be come in any way connected with the paper, other wise than as creditors. They felt, however, that having 1 ossibly incurred some moral responsibility, although they were wholly fro.; from liability, they were Under some obligation towards the trade creditors of the bankrupt, whose claims they would undertake to pay in full, with two exceptions, in cases where it had been attempted to fasten a legal responsi bility uppn them. The learned gentleman then read some further correspondence which had passed upon the subject. Air. Reed also appeared for the creditors. The Registrar having expressed his satisfaction at the statement which had been made, said it would be very convenient to discuss the claims upon another occasion after they had been investigated by the assignee ; and Mr. Wentle (Johnstone, Cooper, Wentle, and Evans) having been appointed assignee, the proceedings ended. RAILWAY ACCIDENT.—Between six and seven o'clock last evening a goods train ran off the railway on the viaduct between the Borough road and the Blackfriars Stations of the London, Chatham, and Dover Railway.

The SPEAKER took the chair at 12 o'clock. TENURE OF LAND (IRELAND) BILL. Sir C. O'LOGHLEN moved the second reading of this bill, which dealt with the question of the tenure of land. The main object of the bill was to discourage tenure at will, and to substitute in its place the grantingofleases. The hon. and learned gentleman contended that a tenancy from year to year was the most objectionable tenure that could exist in any country, because no occupier felt inclined to im prove his land, liat.le as ho was to be turned out of his holding at six mouths' notice. The bill was a permissive one, and it did not deal with tenanteies at present in 'ex istence, but it referred only to tenantcies commenced after the passing of the Act, and it, also enacted that in the ab sence of any agreement in writing the tenantcies should be taken to le) leasehold, and for the term of twenty one years. With respect to tenants-at-will, the most effective way was to put every difficulty in the way of persons insisting on them, and therefore he proposed that the notices to quit should bo given 12 months beforehand, instead of six, and that the tenant should be entitled to one half of the county coca from the landlord. In the next place, he proposed that the land lord should lose the right of distress, which, in conse quence of the guards thrown around it by the Legislature, was never used in Ireland except for purposes of oppression. The bill also gave the right of compensation to a tenant from year to year—if dispossessed by a notice to quit—for the growing crops or manure that may have been put upon the land, and compensation was also given for tenant right where the man was turned out against his will, and that racing stock should not be liable to the landlord beyond the amount of the racing money. He did not ask the house to accept .the whole of the clauses of the bill, but that which he was most anxious for was, that the house should affirm the preamble of the bill, which was to discourage the system of year to year tenan cies, and the encouragement of granting leases in writing for a given term of years. He believed the bill would be productive of the greatest good in Ireland, and that in a short time that country would become as quiet as Scotland. The reason that it was not so was because in the one country the land and Church question had been settled, which made the people contented and loyal, whilst in the other both those questions were in process of agitae tion, which, rendered the people disloyal and discontented. , Sir HARVEY BRUCE moved the rejection of the bill ; ho did not attribute the unhappy state of Ire land to the causes stated by the hon. and learned member but to former legislation of that house, who repressed the rights, the commerce, the in dustry of the country, and which it would ,take years to restore. He thought a great deal of the discontent was caused by the introduction of little peddling bills into Par liament, and to parties who were continually haranguing the people from the platform respecting the lost rights and abject condition. He thought the bill would not carry out the intention of the hon. and learned gentleman, and therefore he moved that the bill be read a second time that day six months.

Paul Bert on a peculiar property of phenic acid, which he thinks may be of some use in forensic medicine. If a diluted solution of hydro chlorate of strychnine be mixed with a few drops of phenic acid, the liquid assumes the aspect of an emulsion. It then loses much of its power when introduced under the skin, but this is only owing to a greater difficulty of absorption, and not to a destruction of strychnine by phenic acid; for, if the latter be taken away by ether, the limpid solution that remains is quite as poisonous as before. If the emulsion be carefully filtered, the filtrate treated with ether will be found to have lost its poisonous quality, while the re sidue remaining on the filter, ou being deprived of its phenic acid by ether, will yield all the strychnine employed. The salt of strychnine, therefore, does not pass through the filter, being suspended in phenic acid, and may thus be easily extracted even from animal substances, and this may be useful in forensic researches. The Indian poison called woorali or curare may be separated in the same way. A farmer in the province of Limburg has hit upon a curious way of deriving profit from horse-flesh. He keeps some 2,000 fowls, which are the fattest in the country, owing to the way in which he feeds them. Every week he buys two or three dead horses, which he cuts up and boils. The broth is given to his pigs, that seem to enjoy this novel soup very well and thrive admirably upon it. The meat that has been used for the broth is hashed and given to the fowls, and what remains of the horses' carcases is sold to the sugar-refiners, who convert it into lamp-black. The eggs of his fowls he sends over to England, realising six centitnes a piece for them, and the fowls go the same way when they have done laying eggs. M. Humbert de Mo lard has contrived a way of getting a number of successive photographs of the same sitter, so as to reproduce - them even when moving. The camera is provided with a certain .number - of- object glasses, all corresponding with - diaphragms of proper dimensions behind. Before the opera tion begins all these object-glasses are covered with a thick curtain which will roll up in stantaneously like those of a carriage-window, by touching a spring, but the motion may be regu lated at will. As the curtain rises it presents a round hole to each object-glass in succession, so that each receives the image at a different moment. All these images, each representing a somewhat different attitude, are successively thrown on the same sensitized plate, whereby a whole series of different photographs of the same person is ob tained. BALLOON ASCENTS IN PARIS.—Two balloon as cents took place on Sunday afternoon iu Paris. Shortly before five M. Godard's balloon went up front the Hippo drome, and shortly after the Geant of M. Nadar ascended from the esplanade of the Invalides. The spectacle of both these aerial machines at once was an unusual one ; but it was of short duration, for they got speedily above the clouds, and were borne rapidly away by the breeze in the direction of Orleans. A few minutes before the ascent of the Geant the Emperor, in a carriage driven by postilions, on his way to St. Cloud to visit the Prince Imperial, passed along by the Cours la Reine, and five minutes later the Empress followed in a carriage and four, with out riders. Their Majesties were loudly cheered. The Geant balloon came down safely the same evening at eight o'clock near Longjumeau ; while the other balloon, which had gone up from the Hippodrome, descended at Clamart. A YEAR'S CHURCH APPOINTMENTS.—The Irish Ecclesiastical Commissioners state that in the year ending with July last appointments were made in Ireland to five church dignities, 17 prebends, and 84 parochial benefices. PARIS ExrnßrrlON.—lt is understood to be the wish of the Imperial Commission that all persons entitled to be present at the ceremony of the distribution of the prizes oa the - lst of July should appear in official (Cr other uniforms.

Days of Running Brampton, Cumberland Mr. Warwick OCTOBER. Ancaster and Willoughby, Lincolnshire Mr. Spafford Mr. Newham Woolley writes to the Times from Bardney, about nine miles from the town of Lin coln, giving an account of the new black death which appeared in his locality. Early in January the village was startled by the sudden and unex pected death of some of the parishioners attacked by a disease of no ordinary description. One after noon a stout, healthy man called on him complain ing of sickness and intolerable headache. Though he resumed his work next morning, about 3 p.m. he staggered into the surgery very sick, with acute pain in the back part of the head, and complete prostration. his pulse was weak and frequent, the pupil contracted, the skin moist and bathed in per ahse night covered h m e with t c h a ae purpledelirious, e r u a p n t d i i n i a , s t p h i e ra m tio or n n . ing ln w t showing every symptom of approaching collapse. Under the influence of powerful stimulants he again rallied, and a small blister was applied to the nape on s r had on se elvBer others of the neck, f rom w hi ch the most fetid discharge the known took occurred, but all reco vere d . On the subsidence of the epi cnrred,vaqing in intensity, While attending place epi demic a mild t yp h us fever supervened. The d i sease was, in fi r . IV oolley ' s opinion, con fi ne d to t h e dis trict. If this disease is the same as that lately reported from Ireland, the success of the treatment in Lincolnshire is in strange contrast with the fatal results there. The sooner Mr. Woolley's system is tried the better, and be attributes his success to ascertaining satisfactorily the difference between irritation and inflammation, and prescribing for his patient accordingly. de es )1c '55 id 30 •d at 1- 20 et et 100 190 100 100 100 100 100 ISSESi WO 100 100 all 100 100 1051 111 & HI 4 1031 931
