A vezy steady demand for money is reported in the general discount market, and owing to the easy terms for all good classes of paper the inquiries at the Bank continue moderate. The state of the ex change, the arrivals of gold, and the comparatively few exports of the precious metals, are not only ex ercising at the present moment a favourable in fluence upon the money market, but in the various departments of the Stock Exchange likewise values of most kinds being well upheld, especially those of the British Funds.

TILE TEETH AND BREATII.—IIOW often do w • find the hum ,n face dlv ne diefi;ure , i by neglecting the chi to t of its ornaments, and the breath made disagreeable to companions by n n-atter.tio to the Teeth! Though I erieet i , their et. ueture and composition, to keep them in a pure and healthy state.rt.quires tome little ttouble ; and if those will are blessed with well-formed teeth knew how soul decay steals into the mouth, makicg unsightly what otherwise are delightful to admire, and designating unhealthiness by the impurity of the breath, they would spare no expense to chase away these fatal blemishes. But although most ladies are eare:ul, and even particular in these delicate matters, yet few arc sufficiently aware of the imperative necessity of avoiding all noxious or mineral substances of an acrid na ture, and of which the greater part of the cheap tooth. powders and pastes of the present day are composed. It is highly satisfactory to point out Messrs. Rowlands' Odonto, or Pearl Dentifric), as a preparition free from all injurious elements, and eminently ca'cuiatod to embellish and preserve the_dental structure, to impart a grateful fragrance to the breath. and to embellish and perpetuate the graces of the mouth.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.—This Day. COURT OF ARCHES. (Before the Right Hon. Dr. Lushington.) IN THE MATTER OF THE REV. A. H. MACHONACHIE, INCUMBENT OF ST. ALBAN'S, HOLBORN. The defendant in this case was charged with a violation of the canon and statute law by an un due elevation of the paten and cup over the con secrated elements, by using lighted candles during the communion when not required, by using in cense for incensing " persons and things," and by mixing water with the wine in the sacrament, and sanctioning the same practices by those in holy orders who were under his authority. _ _ _ Mr. J. A. Stephens, Q C., Dr. Stvabey, and Mr. Trail "appeared fir the prosecutor, and the Queen's Advocate, Mr. W. H. James, Q.C., and Dr. 'Tristram for the defendant. Mr. Stephens having sta•ed the charges, The Qleen's Advocate took objection to thcl pro ceedings, which, instead of being brought forward under the Eoclesiasti , al Law, he contended should have come before the Court under some particular statute or canon. It would be difficult for the de fendant to meet the charges preferred against him in their present vague form, and he trusted the Court would require that they should be amended. He drew attention to the fact that the reverend de fendant had discontinued some of the practices in deference to the wishes of his bishops. Mr. James then addressed the court. Mr. Predeaux was about to follow on the same side, but the learned judge interrupted him, stating that the practice of the court was not to allow more than two counsel to be heard on the same side. Mr. Stephens then addressed the court on behalf of the prosecution. He referred to the statutes of Elizabeth and Charles 1., and contended that the omission of the practicei resorted to by the defen dant from the Book of Common Prayer proved that they were not recognised as a part of the church service, and therefore a violation of the Act of Uniformity. He denied that there was any hardship in this prosecution, because although he relinquished some of the practices in deference to the bishop and the wishes of Convo cation, a partial discontinuance of the practices did not condone his offence, and he still retained his opinion as to the legality of these practices. He quoted the opinion of the Queen's Advocate as against the burning of incense, to which, however, there was a note appended, in which he stated that, since delivering that opinion, he had come to the conclusion that the opposite view admitted of consi derable discussion. He said that, if there was any obscurity in the proceedings, it was the wish of the promoters of this case to give the defendant the fairest and fullest opportunity of vindicating him self, and not to have the questions at issue decided on a technical point. Mr. Coleridge, Q.C., followed on the same side. The Dean of Arches, having gone through the arguments in detail, decided that the amendments required by the defendant should be made, and the canon alleged to have been violated specified. DREADFUL ACCIDENT AT BLACK FRIARS NEW BRIDGE. INQUEST THIS DAY. At 12 o'clock to-day Mr. William Payne, the City coroner, held an investigation at Guy's Hospital touching the- circumstances attending an accident at Blackfriars New Bridge, by which Thomas Oronfield, aged 37 years, lost his life, and three other men were seriously injured. Messrs. G. 11. and S. Brandon, solicitors, of Essex-street, Strand, attended to watch the pro ceedings on behalf of Messrs. Thorne, the contrac tors for the erection of Blackfriars new bridge. The first witness called was Thomas Jones, who said that he lived at No. 2, Great Guilford-street, Southwark, and that ho was employed as a labourer at Blackfriars new bridge. Ile knew the deceased, and had worked with him as a diver, and he had dredged the cylinder out. On last Saturday morning, at 20 minutes to ten o'clock, witness was at work on the No. 4 stage concreting. The deceased was then lying in the water outside an iron cylinder, and between that and a tim ber pile. Witness then helped to get him into a boat. Witness did not see anything that hap pened. 11 itness then saw the cylinder or iron caisson near the water, and it was broken. It had been intended to have lowered that caisson into the river for the purpose of allowing men to work inside it for the purpose of making the foundations of the pier of the new bridge. It wai 20ft. iu diame ter, or more. Witness thought it weighed about 40 tons. The iron caissons were lowered into the water by means of chains and pulleys. There was a piece of iron riveted on the iron caisson for that purpose. There was a hole made in the piece of iron for the purpose of slipping the chain through, before it was lashed round the caissons, which, in the present instance, was a " cutwater one." In the present case a piece of iron had been riveted at three different parts of the caissons, and chains were "lashed".round it three times. The chains were then passed through three blocks, or pulleys, and then they were worked by a "crab" or winch, and by means of turning the handles of the winch the men on the platform gradually lowered the caisson into the river. Witness had assisted in puttingreeedie gthe f the c chain occurrence.non thecra b on the Wednesday preceding By a Juror—The chain was not a new one. It was rusty. Witness noticed that when he put it on one link was " cracked through." Witness con tinued :—I called the attention of our ganger to it. His name is Walter Smith. He is now in the hos pital. We had a conversation about it. Smith told the foreman " one of the links of the chain is bad." He said " Take it to the blacksmith's." After some further evidence, a verdict of acci dental death was returned. MARKETS.--This day. HAY.

SUGAR.—A very moderate amount of business has been entered into, and the sales have led to no important changes in values. Refined goods also continue very quiet, but prices remain steady, common dried goods being quoted 435. per cwt. COFFEE.—A moderate amount of business has been done in colonial descriptions at steady prices. The stocks on hand, however, compared with those of the corresponding period of last year, exhibit a falling off of about 100 tons.

Yesterday afternoon a smilers' race for the above amount took Oleo from Putney to Mortlake, in outriggers, the competitors being Thomas King, the ex-pugilist, and Frank Kilsby, a waternaan. Of King and his doings as a pugilist and a rowing man the public need no reminding, while of Kilsby all that can be said is that he has rowed several scullers' races, with varied success, against indifferent per formers. Ile trained at Putney, King being trained at Barnes. Two steamers accompanied the race, with large parties on board, betting opening at 5 to 2 on King, and closing at 7 to 4 ; but the layers of the odds were miserably deceived, for Kilsby, who won the station, came right away from the start, cleared his man in 100 yards, and King, rowing very indifferently, never had a chance, be ing beaten by six or eight lengths. Mr. J. Ireland was re feree, and the pilots were - Drewitt for King, aid Kelley for GALLOPS AT EPSOM THIS MORNING. Rain having fallen heavily throughout yesterday afternoon and during the night the Downs were unpleasant to the tread of the horse-watchers this morning, and the air was chilly and damp too. Showers also prevailed ; therefore all things.con sidered, especially as Achievement and Vauban were still absentees, not having yet left their home quarters, no wonder the attendance of on-lookers at exercise time was short. As the herbage was thick on the running ground, more particularly at Tattenhain Corner, " the track " was by no means injuriously affec'ed by the recent succession of heavy rain, and, unless the " down pour" con tinues strong, the course will be in capital order to morrow, especially if the wind gets up. Still there are symptoms of prolonged wet, and if the ground becomes heavy, the Derby chances of a great many will not be worth a sous, though it cannot in the least affect such animals as 'Vauban, Van Aniburgll, Roquefort, Fitz Ivan, &c., who like soft laud and a distance. This morning the Blue Riband candidates that exercised included the Amanda colt, Corporal. D'Estournel, Dragon, Fitz -Ivan, Flying Scud, Hermit, Julius, Leases, Lord Hastings, Man of Ross, Marksman, Master Butterfly, Maid of Masham colt, Nine Elms, Plaudit, Rus in Urbe, The Rake, Rescue, Roquefort, the Teddington colt, and Tyne dale. The Amanda colt and Ben Nevis were about the first of these to show, but the latter appeared to go lame, and the former did most work, galloping a mile and three quarters at a good pace. Watson set Lozenge to give Plaudit and Strath- Conan three smart canters, and then a gallop of over a mile and a half, Plaudit again sweating pro fusely. Strathconan is much improved in looks and action since Chester. The Corporal, Tynedale, and Minster Bell were led nearly a couple of Miles by The Czar, and they went uncommonly well. The Prelate pioneered the rest of Tom Dawson's string, which consisted of lona and Child of the Islands. The Corporal goes uncommonly free, and, being fit, is a good rough outsider for the Detby. The Dragon and Leases each galloped very little short of two miles ; and Liddington took Marks man along at a rare pace over a mile and a half. Sealskin was busy leading D'Estournel and Roquefort, and the three moved freely, there being no symptom of lameness in D'Estournel when in action. Mr. Saville's chance is not done with yet. The Hermit was bowling steadily over the ground with Problem and another, but he was never ex tended, and appeared nervous. The Baron's lot attracted much attention, the magnificent Hippia acquitting herself first-class, as did Restitution and King Alfred. Jasper is in form too. Mat Dawson set Julius, and Flying Scud to fol low Sultan two smart canters, and then a mile and a half gallop, Julius looking fresher and moving more freely than he did in the Two Thousand. Ninny, Nike, Speculum, Clemente, and lnnerdale cantered, and subsequently galloped a mile steadily. Moulsey took Queen of Trumps and Lady High thorn a famous mile gallop, and the three then trotted about. Four of Lord Glasgow's Derby and Oaks horses were at exercise, but we missed them ; and we did not get to see either what Rescue did. Man of Ross and Fitz-Ivan, however, went nearly two miles at a fair pace. Lord ilastings, after a deal of trotting and a couple of steady cantering bouts, started off on a mile and three-quarters' gallop, with Master Butter fly in his wake ; but the latter tired very much at the finish, evidently from want of condition. On the Leatherhead Downs Westwick led Grand Cross and Taraban two nice canters, and Knight of the Crescent took the latter pair over a mile . and a half at rare §peed, and no horse could go better than Grand Cross. IVestwick, War, and Klarinska did a couple of miles. Merry and Wise had a mile gallop. Skirmish gave Gipsy King a long smartish canter, after which Beeswing took the Derby colt a mile and a half rt a rattling speed. A lot of other horses were working, but none of any note ; and the weather was so raw and depres sing that few troubled about any of the gallops beyond those taken by the Derby and Oaks horses. Amongst the three year old fillies we noticed that Bounceaway, Skysail, Sur de Charite, and Sweet Home were particularly busy, and went as well as they looked. The Rake was amongst Joseph Dawson's long team, but he did nothing beyond trotting and cantering about for half an hour, and then a steady mile gallop. He looks very dull this morning, but otherwise appears fit, his trainer evidently having given him a most painstaking preparation up to the time the colt broke a small bloodvessel in his head last Friday. Since then he has been kept quiet, and most of the veterinary surgeons here agree that he MAY escape a repetition of the disaster, even when passing through the severe struggle of to morrow ! Bamblekite, Vauban, Van Amburgh, and a lot of others were hourly expected when our parcel was despatched from Epsom at ten o'clock this morning. NEWTON SUMMER MEETING. WEDNESDAY, May 29.

The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at five o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The following bills were read a third time and passed: Poole Roads, Orkney Roads, Eton Gas, Ross and Mon mouth Railway, Middle Level Drainage, Heywood Im provement, and Mold Gas and Water. PURCHASE AND SALE OF SHARES BILL. Lord REDESDALE said that he had no hesitation in putting this bill before their lordships, for they must all see the advisability of a loptiug such a measure. The ob jection to the bill was that it would be a restriction, but it was entirely different if they looked into the matter fairly. Ile moved that the bill should read a s•coud time. TENURE.: (IRE i.AND) BILL. Lord CLANRIGARDE moved the second reading ot this bill, which was agreed to. LEI T tsITTIXG. HOUSE OF COMMONS—TiIIs EVENING. The SPEAKER took the chair at four o'clock. THE 110/AL ENGINEERS. Sir B. L. GUINNESS asked the Secretary of St ato for War if lie would furnish to the house a return of the names of the civil officers of the ltoyal Engineers who he ve died on foreign service during the past ten years; a,nd, why their widows had not pensions allotted to them, as was the case with the widows of the other officers of the Royal Engineers ' and whether the Government purposed to ma k e them such provision in future ? Sir J. PAKINGTON said he would willingly furnish the names required. Tho reason pensions were not al lotted to widows of officers was that the officers were under the Superannuation Act, and therefore they were not entitled to public pensions. THE POOR LAW BOARD. In reply to Col. l'AtExca, The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, in making the appointment of President of the Poor Law Board, he had been influenced solely by the consideration of securing the services of the person most fitted to fulfil the duties of the office. Although the appointment had been held since its creation uniformly by members of the House of Commons, there was nothing in the act cur tailing the privileges of the Premier in confining his Cabi net appointments to a particular House of Parliament. It was quite true that Lord Devon had been appointed to fill the office of President of the Poor-law Board, and he felt that it was an appointment which Parliament would approve, and in which the country at large would have confidence. Mr. BOUVERIE thought the appointment an excellent one, and he was of opinion that if both sides of the Houses of Parliament had been hunted round a better selection could not have been made. Lord Devon's acquaintance with the duties of the office were well known, and that circumstance very greatly strengthened the appointment. NAVAL SAVINGS' BANKS. Mr. KINNAIRD asked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether the Government intend to extend the operation, of the Naval Savings Banks to all the ships of the Medi terranean squadron and to the navy generally ? Mr. CORRY said the experiment on board the flagship of the Commander-in-Chief in the Mediterranean had been very successful, as in three months there had been no less than 292 depositors, and the amount placed in the bank amounted to £3,500. Instructions had been given to establish savings banks in all the ships in the Mediter ranean squadron, but with respect to the navy generally more experience was required before such an arrangement 'was made throughout the navy. THE MILITIA. Mr. 0. STANLEY asked the Secretary of State for War if his Royal Highness the Commander-in-Chief had ever been consulted about the Bth clause in the Militia Reserve Bill, and had given his sanction to it ; and, if the late Secretary of State for War bad handed the clause over to the right hon. baronet, or approved it ? Sir J. PAKINGTON said the clause had not been sent to the Commander-in-Chief, who had not seen the bill until it was in print. There was nothing new in the clause, which was at present the law of the land. Militia men, as the law now stood, could be sentenced to service in her Majesty's regular land forces. ISH POOR LAW. In reply to Mr. REARDEN, Lord NAAS said there was no intention of proposing any alteration with respect to the out-door relief in the poor-law in Ireland. THE RATING FRANCHISE. Mr. D. GRIFFITH asked the Chancellor of the Ex chequer whether he was aware that in Ireland no property not exceeding £4 in value was rated ; and that the proposed Parliamentary rating franchise could not devolve on oc cupiers in that country at or below that amount ; and, if so, whether he proposed to establish a lower Parliamentary franchise in England than in Ireland ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said the language of the question was not correct. It stated that no property under £4 value is rated, but the fact was that all property under £4 was rated. Witk respect to the second part of his question, he thought it would be more convenient if he would wait for inforn,ation on that sub ject, when his noble friend the Secretary of Ireland brought forward the Irish Reform Bill. For 33 years the franchises of England and Ireland had not been identical. THE DERBY DAY. On the motion of the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHE QUER, it Was agreed that the house at its rising adjourn until Thursday. DWELLING HOUSES. Mr. AYRTON moved for a return of the number of dwelling houses (not included in a composition under any geueral or local Act) on account of which the land lord or owner paid the poor rates by agreement with the overseers or other authority assessing or collecting the same in the cities and boroughs in England and Wales returning members to Parliament. —The return was ordered. MUNICIPAL CORPORATIONS (METROPOLIS). Mr. MILL moved for leave to bring in a bill for the establishment of municipal corporations in the several dis tricts of the metropolis. Mr. AYRTON thought the bill when brought in would not fulfil the object the hon. member had in view. Mr. LOCKE thought it far more preferable to divide the metropolis into wards, each of which should elect an alderman and common council in the seine manner as the City of London. Colonel Sykes thought the 1411 was an attempt to sweep away the liberties of the City of London. Mr. G. HARDY said, on the part of the Government, he should offer no opposition to the introduction of the bill ; but with respect to the course the Government might take after that measure had been introduced, he would give no promise. The subject was a very intricate one, and the metropolitan members were themselves not agreed upon the subject. Leave was given to bring in the bill. THE SALTERS' ESTATE IN IRELAND. Mr. O'REILLY called attention to the circumstances under which the Salters' Company had refused a site for a Roman Catholic Church in Magherafelt; and moved an humble address to her Majesty, praying that she would be graciously pleased to revoke such portion, if any, of the charter of the Salters' Company as impeded the obtaining of a site for a Roman Catholi c Church on their property. (LEFT SITTING.) LONDON GAZETTE. -THIS EVE NING. Up to the hour of going to press we had not received our usual copy of the " Gazette." MURDER , AT WHITECILAPEL. Mr. John llumphreys, the Middlesex coroner, received information last night of the murder of a carman, named Charles Crackett, aged 39 years. It appears that the deceased was walking along the \V hitechapel-road, on Monday night, when he was knocked down by two men, and stabbed through the head with a large knife. The unfortu nate man's cries brought assistance to the spot, when the deceased was found to be lying on the pavement in an insensible state, and covered with blood. He was at once picked up and was con veyed to the London Hospital, when Mr. Adams, the house-surgeon, found that he had received a severe stab wound on the scalp, in which was the part of a blade of a steel knife, and before a magis trate could be sent for to take his deposition the unfortunate man expired. An inquest is expected to be held this evening. Foreign Mail Packet List. MAILS DUE. Australia and New Zealand, via Southamptoa May 0. Ditto, via Marseilles Juae 2 :3.

ILL-TREATING A ClllLD.—Richard Bishop, the marker at the Hereford rith butts, who was recently charged with gross cruelty to his chill, has been had up on remand. It appeared that he had served 28 years in the 36th Regiment. In addition to the evidence previously given, Fanny Ilerriot said she saw the poor child lying on the ground ; she complained of her chest, and said, " Oh, it is whore father hit: me." She turned down her frock and her chest was covered with several cuts, rod and black, appearing to be the marks of heavy stripes. The nurse at the union said that the child cried so she could hardly wash her, and her feet wore so bad that she evi dently had not worn boots for a month. The prisoner was sent to gaol for three months' hard labour. 20 St St 'Co 31 li i(2i par boi V3i 1
