ti AAPKET AND COMMERCIAL tNVILLIGENCII, TWELVE O'CLOCK. A very steady business is reported in the dis count market, and there is some activity, inducing bankers and bill brokers to attempt an advance of terms. Affairs for a considerable period having been stationary the slightest movement is a feature, go there is much said of the outside market mini m. u as m being 24 inst ea d o f 2i per cent. Capitalists, king.an infinitesimal increase of rate naively r , fer to the outflow of gold to the Continent, and the, large sum kept in the country instead of being sent:to London, and adroitly disguise the fact that pro viiielal supplies would be unprofitable to remitters 14 en the metropolitan supplies exceed require- llient s, A very mo lerate amount of business has been transacted in the Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets since the reopening of tha Easter holidays, but prices generally have been steadily maintained. Sugar sold at former rates. For coffee there has been a fair demand at in some instances barely pre vious quotations ; while rice, owing to the smallness 0! Stocks on hand, is held for enhanced prices. Tal low has been in better request, but without material change as regards values. At a meetin g o f t h e shareholders of the Australian .alortgage, Land, and Finance Company, held to (lay, the payment of a dividend, free of income-tax, for t the si x months ending Dec. 31, 1866, at the rate of 1 t 0 per c ent , per annum (making a total of 10 per cen. for the year) was declared. We take the following from the American, com menting upon International Postage :--‘, It is no lon g e r necessary t o pay enormous subsidies for rapid rans mission. If this be doubted, let us have an unlimited mail at a penny a letter, and a limited ail at any price from a sixpence to a sovereign, and th en the respective earnings of the two will show rich has the preference of the public. But in these th aYs of unsubsidized freight and passenger steamers, 0 e mere statement of the proposition is enough. Any th ne w ho has studied the matter at all would say t at the penny rate in the unlimited mail would bo highertiY se lf - supporting but profitable, while the not e rate, competing, with a penny post, could e ,t he made to pay one-fourth of its expenses at any price, Postal revenues should be matters of secon -47 consideration when the intercourse between any nations is involved. But in this case we can bring eßYreasonable amount of evidence from past viptherience to show that the revenue would increase every reduction till the maximum revenue _!ltithe minimum postage might possibly be reached at,. penny letter. res ." ' t n gland and the United States are equally inte rested lane in cheap International Postage. Their unity matteangnage and community of peoples, make it a rof especial importance to them. A vast cone -B_l),oudence would spring up if all in the one country ` e v no have relatives in the other could write when knowheY would at the cost of a penny, the mutual cre e dge of the peoples would be greatly in -0 info) and each would improve much in the a t rii ° ll of the other upon better acquaintance ; eoil L fi r nat and dislike would gradually give way ; de nce and good feeling would predominate m ore and more ; the old commerce would be woul d Y augmented, and new opinions vtvi'llinid constantly occur; and we might even hope for trade w at hi all these various ways dirt two countries 2 111 d gradually become so bound together that no ad ness of th e i r rulers could plunge theminto by war, or pr event t h e i r s t an ding, ever side guar Y si de, like t rue mother and daughter, in t h e van d of civilisation." A withdrawal of 8,000 took place at of Enc , l the Bank b and Yesterday afternoon.

The return of the Bank of France for the pact Week, as compared with the former report, shows the following alterations :—There has been an increase of £316,000 in the cash, of £380,000 in the commercial bills, of £B,OOO in the advances, and of £1,560,000 in the current accounts ; but the notes have decreased £312,000, and the Treasury b alance £666,667.

Market opens with an excited tone, and prices of America are to / dearer. Sales probably 25,000 bales. STATE OFTRADE. MANCHESTER, April bf the regular ma r k et days, 25.—Although this is not one a taken place in th e position of sellerschange l f or m st the better. A large business is reported in cotton at Liverpool —20,000 bales at id• per lb. b e tt er than yester d ay, and this has reacted on prices here. The change is attributed in part to a statement it :a French paper, which gives greater hopes of peace th an have hitherto prevailed. The feeling here took effect too late to lead to much busi ness, b ut before the close of business a very active inqui ry h ad sprung up, an d some fair offers were making. Spinners and manu facturers,• however, were asking higher rates, and were disposed in some cases to hold over their goods till to-morrow (market day) rather than accept even the full prices which were obtainable yesterday. Everything is decidedly firmer in price, and inclin ing to an advance. BRADFORD, 25th.—The wool-market has under gone no change during the present week. The flatness in cotton and the unsettled state of political matters have such a depressing effect on wool that the question of price is nolonger a consideration whether the spinner will supply himself or not. Lower prices constitute no inducement. Operations are alto gether deferred, except for the most pressing and urgent wants. The near approach of clip also tends to induce caution. Staplers, who are obliged to sell, will yield a marked sacrifice in order to effect sales. Most staplers, however, prefer to hold, and refrain from business in the present tendency to decline. In worsted yarns there are the same de pressing influences in operation, and scarcely any business doing either for foreign or home account. A few spinners are still in possession of orders, but most are either stopping their frames or spinning to stock as contracts expire. The business done in pieces is very small and far below the average, although this is the most active department. The uncertainty in foreign politics has not only a prejudicial effect on the demand for Germany, but also interferes with the trade for other quarters. Buyers confine their operations to absolute necessity. Prices are easier. CRICKET.—The match which commenced on Monday on the English Cricket-ground in the Bois do Bou logne, between the Paris and Marylotion() Clubs, was ter minated on Thursday, the latter winning by one innings and 135 runs. The scori• g was as follows :—Marylebone, first innings, 256 ; Paris Cricket Club, both innings, 121. HOW ILLEGITIMACY IN TIIE NORTH OF SCOTLAND IS ACCOUNTED volt.—On the 3d day of April current a decrae was pronounced in the Sheriff Court of Banffshire, at the instance of a female residing in the county against a man who is resident in it, for " iulying expenses incurred to the pursuer in giving birth, on the 13th day of March, 1866, to two male and two female illegitimate children." One of the females was dead at birth, and the two males died within a short time thereafter; the fourth child, a female, being still alive. The births of the whole four must, of course, have figured in the registrar's list, and the high rate of illegitimacy iu Banffshire need not to ba won dered at when such instances of fecundity occur to swell it.—Ban/shhire Journal. The report of the directors of the Land Mortgage Bank of India recolgalend a dividend of 4 per ce4t, per annum. THE SUN, LON SHARE MARKETS.--This day. ORDINARY SHARES AND STOCKS.

Another constable having given similar evidence, The prisoner asked the magistrate to excuse him this time, as he had a family to keep. He hat a license to sell books, but his license had run out, and he was trying to get some money to get another. Re ha i always before been a sober man and a tee totaller for nine years. Mr. Knox said the prisoner had insulted every passer-by, especially ladies who could not defend themselves, and the❑ assaulted a ma❑ in a most un provoked manner. If the prisoner thought he could behave in such a manner in a civilised country he was mistaken. As a warning to others, he would give the prisoner the full penaity, and that was that he be imprisoned with Kurd labour for two mouths. THAMES. AN UNMITIGATED SCOUNDREL.—JarneS Newman, a labourer, about 27 years of age, was brought be fore Mr. Paget charged with being disorderly in the Carlton Arms publichouse, at the corner of Devon shire-street, opposite the Great Eastern Railway, Globe-road, l‘lile-end. It appeared from the evidence of Mary Black, a bar-woman, in the service of Mr. Hugh Cotter, the landlord of the Carlton Arms, that the prisoner called there yesterday afternoon, and called for a pot of malt liquor, which she refused to part with until it was paid for. He made use of abusive language, reached over the bar, .and took the quart of " half-and-half" from her, and he and his com panions drank it. The bar-woman demanded the money for it, and he made use of fearful language, which she could not repeat, and then turned on the taps of the cordials gill the brandy and wasted the liquors. He remained in the house making a dis turbance until the landlord returned, and was then given into custody. Mr. Hugh Cotter, the landlord of the Carlton Arnie, said the prisoner had been a source of re peated annoyance to him for a long time. He had forbidden him the house and refused to serve him with anything. The witness then gave utterance to some of the disguesting language used towards his bar-woman, and which the prisoner repeated in his presence. He never heard worse language in his life. The prisoner was an unmitigated scoundrel. Mr. Paget said it was not to be endured that a fellow like the prisoner was to enter a respectable publichouse and expose a young woman of decency and respectability to his brutal insolence, and to use language to her which was too disgusting for her to repeat. The prisoner was a ruffian of the worst class, and no doubt a terror to those licensed vic tuallers who kept orderly houses. He fined the prisoner 405., and, in default of payment, to be im prisoned 14 days. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE.

The quotation of gold at Paris Is about at par, and the short exchange on London is 25.14 per X 1 sterling. On comparing these rates with the English Mint price of £ lis. 100. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is about -10ths per cent. dearer in Paris than in London. The course of exchange at New York on London for bills at 60 days' sight is about 109) per cent. At this rate there is no profit on the importation of gold from the United States. FIRE AT THE KENSINGTON BAZAAR.--This (Friday) morning, about one o'clock, a fire broke out in the large double-building known as the Kensington Bazaar, in High-street, Kensington, the property of Mr. George Gutty. Conductor Green at once attended with the Royal Society's escape, but was 'seriously injured in extinguishing the fire. Shand, Mason, and Co.'s land steamers attended, but the fire was not extinguished until serious damage was done. THE FENIAN TRIALS.—The Commission for the trial of the Fenian prisoners resumed its sittings in Dublin on Wednesday morning before the Lord Chief Justice, Judge Fitzgerald, and Baron Deasy. The greater part of the day was occupied with discussions relative to certain legal technicalities and the arraignment of several pri soners. Wo learn by telegraph that the Commission was occupied the whole of yesterday in the discussion of legal objections raised by the prisoners' counsel. A jury was sworn to try Thomas Burke and Patrick Doran, after which the Court adjourned until to-day, when the Attorney- General was• to state the case for the prosecution. A letter has been published purporting to have been writtenby the escaped Fenian Centre Kirwan, who, the communication —which may or may not be genuine —states has reached Paris in safety. The Etendard publishes the following telegram : —" Stockholm, 23d.—The Duke of Dalecarlia, youngest brother of the King of Sweden, has been struck with apo plexy. Alt hope is lost of saving the life of the prince, who had just completed his 36th year." Mr. Harford Mellor asserts that lie has discovered the remains of King Alfred, which have now been buried 966 years. The bodies of Ethelbald and Ethelbert, King Alfred's two brothers, lie buried in Sherbourne Abbey. Mr. Mellor feels confident that the royal remains are new lying in the gilt mortuary over the chancel of Hyde-parish Church, near Winchester, and the two leaden plates found by him, with tho King's name upon them, aro now in the bands of the vicar. THE TURRET SHIP WTYVERN._\VC are requested to state that a report regarding her Majesty's ship Wyvern, referred to in our Irish Correspondent's Letter appearing on the 23d inst., is entirely without foundation. The ves sel did not prove dangerous or unmanageable, and was not sent into the Channel in pursuit of Kirwan, as stated. - A PARISIAN ANONYMA.—A lady, supposed to be a Javan, is now setting Paris by the cars. She is from five to six and twenty. Her complexion is of a warm golden tint, like Florentine bronze. She is never clad but in a black dross, made high, and ending at the neck in a ruw of large coral beads of a blood red, and at hor wrists with bracelets of the same material and hue. From be neath her cap, a sort of beret or Scotch bonnet—black also, end encircled with a row of coral beads— flow long and thick tresses, so black that they aro blue. She is never seen on foot. Her " Victoria" is drawn by a pair of ponies black as ebony, at a pace which makes the the pavement smoke . again. The biack and red of her costume and equipage, added to her bronzed complexion, iuvest her with a sinister and somewhat diabolical air. She is known only by the designation of " La Dame au Corail." It is said that she spends much of hor time playing on a species of goals, or else practising with a saloon pistol at a target, which target represents a female figure, of blonde complexion, about the size of the largest dolls ; lastly, that she is from Java, and lives exclusively on. fruit and preserves. She is said to have blown out the brains of one of her slaves who entered her apartment ma summoned. But the most remarkable circumstance about her is that day or night the shutters are closed, and her apartment illuminated with candelabras. At night she sings plaintive melodies more like wailings than set tunes, and she smokes opium and sleeps on panther skins. She is said to be the widow of a great personage in the island of Sumatra, who had committed suicide after au outburst of jealousy on her par., caused by his suspected attachment to the wife of an English naval al - ie.—Paris Paper.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day.) COURT OF EXCHEQUER. Sittings in Banco before the Lord Chief Baron, and Barons Martin, Bramwell, and Pigott. SLADE V. SLADE. This remarkable case, which involves the descent of the titles and estates of the late Sir Fred. Slade, Q.C., a gentleman who obtained great distinction at the English bar, was argued this morning before the Barons of Exchequer. The Solicitor-General (Sir John Karslake), Mr. Kingdon, Q.C., and Mr. Balla were counsel for the pl tintiff ; an I Mr. Coleridge, Q.C., Mr. Mel lish, Q.C., Mr. Henry Matthews, Mr. Montague Bere, and Mr. Wallis, represented the defendant. The plaintiff in this case is Ueutenattt-General Sir . Marcus Slad., a twin brother of the late Sir Frederick, and formerly Lieutenant-Governor of Guernsey, and the defendant is Sir Alfred F. A. Slade, the West son of the late baronet. The question at issue between the parties is the validity of the marriage of Sir Frederick with hi.;, wife, Barbara Maria, the only sister of lord Vaux, of Harrowden. It is alleged on the part of the plaintiffs that the lady had been previously married at Milan in 1825 to the Baron von Koerber, an officer in the Austrian service, and who was alive a the date of her marriage with Sir Frederick. On the other side it is alleged that the Baron having been a Protestant and Miss Mostyn a Roman Catholic, the formalities required by such a marriage were not complied with according to the Austrian law, and consequently that the marriage was void. The case was originally tried at the Somersetshire Assizes, but the points at issue were considered too compli cated for a jury ; and a special case was stated in order that the question should be brought before the judges, who should have power to determine all questions of fact as well as of law. The Solicitor-General having briefly introduced the case by narrating the facts above stated, pro ceeded to read a number of documents, narrating the proceedings of the marriage ceremony between Lady Slade and Baron von Koerber, who, he con tended, were conducted with all the fnlemuity and force necessary to make the marriage legal. According to the rules laid down, it was necessary that the marriage should be intended by both parties, that there should be consent and a knowledge that they were about to marry ; and in raising a question as to the validity of marriage at a future period these points must be thoroughly ascertained. For instance, the clergyman ought to be a regularly ordained Churchman, acting in that capacity. In the case of this marriage it was ob viously so. Then there would be the subsequent conduct of the parties, where the wife might be treated as the lawful wife and the children as legiti mate children. (The case is expected to last several days.) COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner Holroyd.) IN RE VARCIS—THE AUTOGRAPHIC MIRROR. The bankrupt was the editor of the " Autographic Mirror," and to-day was appointed for the order of discharge.. The accounts show a total indebtedness of £3,500 ; the assets being £3,100, the large sum of £1,470 having been handed over to the assignees. His honour adjourned the case as the parties are endeavouring to annul the bankruptcy. POLICE INTELLIGEACE.- 2 -This Day. BOW STREET. POCKET PICKING AT A FlRE.—George Donovan, a youth of about 19 or 20 years of age, was brought up on remand, charged with attempting to cut away the pocket and purse of a lady in Arundel-street, Strand, on Wednesday night. Miss Jessie Purvis stated that she had recently come to London from Scotland, on;her way to Paris, and was staying at a friend's in Arundel-street, Strand. On Wed►:es.lay evening, while the fire which destroyed some of the sheds on the Thames Embankment was burning, a crowd had assembled in Arundel-street to witness the conflagration. She also paused for a moment, but her attention was almost immediately wiLhdrawn from the fire by feel ing a tug at her pocket. She seizA the hand which was pulling at her dress and c)ufr inted the pick pocket, the prisoner at the bar. In one hand he held her pocket containing her purse, and in the other a knife With which he was cutting it away from its fastenings. lie had cut the pocket com pletely away, but had not yet disentangled it from her dress. Police constable Dowdell, of the F division, said he was on duty in private clothes, and had been watching the prisoner about five minutes previously t) the attempt. He saw the prisoner cutting Miss Purvis's dress, and seized his hand at the'same time she did. A gentleman, who was with the prosecu trix, caught his other hand at the same moment. Finding himself in the grip of three persons at once the prisoner made no resistance, and witness took him to the station. The prisoner said there were two others " in it," and it was one of them that cut the pocket. The witnesses adhered to their statement that they seized him with the pocket in his hand. Dowdell said he believed, if time were given, be could show that the prisoner had been previously convicted. Miss Purvis said it would be very inconvenient for her to attend again, as she wanted to go on to Paris. The prisoner upon this altered his tone, and said he should plead not guilty, and take his trial. The magistrate, however, reminded the prisoner that he had power to deal with him as a rogue and vagabond, which h e p ro b a bl y s h ou ld do if it turned out that Dowdell _ . was right in believing that he had been previously convicted. The prisoner was remanded for further inquiry. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. OUTRAGEOUS CONDUCT IN lIYDE-PARK. — John Ailsop, a man of colour, describing himself as a sea man, was charged before Mr. Knox with being drunk and disorderly, and assaulting George West, a labouring man, in Hyde-park. The complainant said he was sitting on a seat in Hyde-park, yesterday afternoon, when the prisoner came up to him with some books in his hand, and said, " this seat belong to me," and immediately struck him as hard as he could two or three blows in the face. In answer to Mr. Knox, the complainant said the prisoner had been drinking, but well knew what he was about. - The prisoner said that when he fell on the com- P c a l a l l i e n d a n h t im he a be " g black ged h.i's pardon, but the co m pl a i nan t ' The complainant denied this. Mr. Charles E.

He a fterwards saw the pris oner go up an d insult same ladies in a similar manner, and while he was speaking to a constable and a park-keeper, he said the prisoner was already in custody higher up the park. The prisoner had been drinking, but was not drunk, and well knew what he was about, but he seemed drunk to every person he approached —especially ladies. He (Mr. Saunders) had at tended the court at some trouble, but felt it his duty to do so on behalf of the public, who, like him self,went tothe park for recreation, aslie considered they were entitled to protection.

Dr. Lankester held an inquest this afternoon at the King's Head, Broad-street, Bloomsbury, into the circumstances connected with the death of John Willmer, a child about three years of age, whose extraordinary disappearance from home a great r t s n e t m e ree:tta were u a neighbourhood. ted by the for more than a fortnight has been the cause of father, Billa w an h d o e th c e irc carried on the business of a tailor at 191, Holborn, all to no purpose until last Tuesday afternoon, when a labourer engaged in pulling down the premises lately in the occupation of Camerer, Kuss, and Tritschler, 201, Holborn, discovered the body of the unfortunate child in the cesspool of the house. The firm had given up possession of the premises some time before the child was missed, and they were, therefore, unoccupied. Between No. 201 and the adjoining house, also being pulled down, a gateway leads to the back of the premises of the two houses, and it is supposed that the poor child strayed down the passage, and, as the doors were all open, he went into the closet of 201 and accidentally fell into the cesspool beneath, and there met with a horrible death. Dr. llarvey, the surgeon of the F division of police, stated that he was called to see the unfortunate child before it was taken from the cesspool, and it was his opinion that the child, from the position in which be saw him, must have climbed upon the seat and then unfortunately fallen through the hole. The place was in a most disgusting and filthy state. The Coroner said he entirely agreed with him in that opinion. It was most desirable to see who was re sponsible for the condition of the cesspools of both the houses, because had they been in a proper state the poor child could not have fallen through. 'd Dr. Harvey was of opinion that the death of the child was caused by suffocation. Dr. Lankester . thought it would be advisable to adjourn the inquiry in order that the most searching inquiry might be made relative to the abominable state of the back premises of both houses. The jury coin cided in that opinion, and the inquiry was accord ingly adjourned for a week. Inspector Brannan, of the F division, attended to watch the proceedings on the part of the Commissioners of Yohcb.
