MONEY MARKET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE, TWELVE O'CLOCK. There is no appreciable alteration in the general state of the Money Market ; the supplies and circu lation have increased instead of showing the diminution usual at this period, owing to the millions sterling locked up in provision for the half yearly dividend. A further sum of £76,000 in gold was taken to the Bank of England yesterday. The return from the Bank of _England for the week ending the 3d of July gives the following re sults when compared with the previous week : £3,180,866 Increase.. £57,840 Public deposits ... 9,356,727 Decrease 1,748,686 Other deposits 18,858,210 Increase 1,014,104 On the other side of the account : Government securities £12,830,773 Decreaso...Xss,sll Other securities 20,456,251 Increase ... 358175 Notes unemployed 12,088,710 ... Decrease... 803 ,630 The amount of notes in circulation is £24,353,860, being an increase of £1,148,950 ; and the stack of bullion in both departments is £22,495,855, showing an increase of £209,171 when compared with the preceding return. Usually the first return after the end of the half year shows a decline of about a quarter of a million in the bullion, owing to with drawals of sovereigns for Government and other payments. Subjoined is a comparison of the present position of the Bank of England and the prioe of Consols with the corresponding week of last year : Same week At present. bust year.

Pries of Consols ... 941 36} The Bank of France returns show the following changes compared with the previous return. The cash in hand has increased £103,500, the bills receivable £592,000, and the votes £178,400, while the Treasury has decreased £620,000, and the pri vate accounts £860,000. The Union Bank of London have announced that at the half-yearly meeting, to be held on the 10th inst., a dividend of 7} per cent., and a bonus of 5 per cent. will be declared for the six months ended 30th June last, making, with the distribution of profits in Januarylast, 22k per cent. for the year, being the same rate as in the previous year. Atlantic and Great Western Railway debentures have declined k, to 30 32, but the Consolidated Mortgage Bonds remain steady at 241 254. During the past few days there has not been much animation in the Foreign and Colonial Pro duce Markets. The dealings in sugar have been restricted, and prices have shown little variation of importance. Coffee has been in fair request, par ticularly superior qualities of Plantation Ceylon which have brought full rates. In rice scarcely any business has been reported, and quotations are a shade lower, while only moderate transactions have been entered into in tallow, and insufficient to cause any material change in values. With regard to the corn trade in Birmingham, Mr. W. C. R. Cane states as follows :—Weather until Monday night continued fine, with a high temperature. We had then a splendid rain, which will be of immense benefit to the growing crops and pastures, but more especially to the barley, which was showing serious signs of want of moisture. The corn trade during the week has remained in the same dull, inactive state so long noted ; this is caused chiefly by the continued determination of manufacturers to work on the hand to 'month system, and by the entire absence of speculation. Supplies of English wheat continue most moderate. Arrivals of Foreign are to a fair extent. At our market to-day we had again a poor show of fine English wheat, and such sold at the prices of last week, while secondary were unsaleable. The subjoined circular, with reference to the affairs of the London, Brighton, and South-Coast Railway, has been issued by Mr. S. Laing, M.P.:— " Company's Offices, London-bridge, E.C., July 2, 1867. "Sir,—Having consented to become chairman of the Brighton Company in the hope of saving it from its present embarrassments, I am satisfied that au amalgamation with the South-Eastern Company is the first step to place both properties on a sound footing. lam further satisfied that the enclosed agreement is perfectly fair for both.sides, and mutually advantageous ; and as it is of great importance with reference to the application to Parliament that it should be adopted by large majorities of the shareholders, I beg earnestly to request that you will attend the meeting to be held on Friday, the 12th of July next, at one o'clock, at the Bridge House Hotel, Southwark; or, if you are unable to attend, that you will sign the enclosed proxy in favour of myself or Sir Charles Jackson.--Yours faithfully, "S. LAING." At the meeting held to-day of the Colonial Bank, Mr. C. M. Marryatt in the chair, the report, seconded by Mr. Gurney Hoare, was unanimously adopted, and a dividend declared at the rate of 6 per cent. for the half-year, being equal to 12 per cent. for the year. It was stated by the chairman that there were no fresh losses, and that the bad debts of last year were all cleared off. The net profit for the half year amounted to £41,121. The reserve fund amounted to £136,000. Two O'CLOCK. According to Reuter's telegram this morning, the French Rentos were 68f. 60c. Scarcely any business is reported in the market for Consols, and the quotations for money and ac count are now exactly the same, viz., 94 1 for both. The dealers and brokers, investors and speculators, are now awaiting, with some anxiety, the issue of the settlement.

Only a moderate amount of business has been transacted in the Railway Share Market, but prices in most instances exhibit greater firmness. Brighton have advanced 11 ; South-Western and Metropoli tan each 1 ; Midland, 4 ; South-Eastern, ; and Great Western, 4 ; while Great Northern have de clined 4. In tha Foreign and Colonial undertakings little variation was apparent, Great Luxembourg being dealt in at 11 1 1. ; South Austrian and Lombardo- Venetian at 15i ; East Indian at 107} ; Great Indian Peninsula at 106; ; and Bombay and Baroda at _lOOl Miscellaneous and Finance shares are without material variation.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH. (Sittings at Nisi Prins, at Guildhall, before Lord Chief Justice Cockburn, and a Special Jury.) GOLTIB V. THE GREAT EASTERN RAILWAY COMPANY. This was an action by the plaintiff, a hair dresser, at Barclay-road, Essex, an d his wife, to recover damages sustained by the latter while tra velling on the company's line. The defendants denied that they were indebted to the plaintiffs, or that their servants had been guilty of any negligence on the part of their servants. Mr. Sergeant O'Brien was counsel for the plaintiff ; and Mr. Powell, Q.C., for the defendants. Mrs. Rachel Gotlib, the female plaintiff, stated that last November she went by the second-class on the company's line from the Barclay road station. There were in the carriage with her two ladies whom she did not know and her brother. On the arrival of the train at Stratford one of the railway" porters opened the door of the eltrriage, and the ladies got out. As she was about following them, the carriage gave a jerk, and she was flung on the platform. She fell very heavily, being large in the family way. When she returned home she became very ill, and the next day she suffered severe pain from a contusion in the knee and other injuries from the accident. She was soon under medical treatment, but fortunately no premature confine ment took place. The injuries were serious, if not permanent, in their character, and Mrs. Gotlib had been unable to render her husband any assistance in his business for some time after the accident. She was also obliged to have the con stant attendance of a nurse. The company took no notice of an application for compensation, but when they had been served with a writ on behalf of the plaintiff, they took out a summons against the lady for having got out of the carriage while the train was in motion, but up the present time the latter was not proceeded with. Other evidence was given on behalf of the plaintiff. The jury found a verdict for the defendant. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. (Sittings at Nisi Prins, at Guildhall, before Mr. Justice Keating and a Common Jury.) ABSALON V. POUNCETS. Mr. IL James was counsel for the Plaintiff, and Mr. M. Chambers, Q.C., for the defendant. The plaintiff in this cas3 is an artist, and the defendant a gentleman of fortune, who has a taste for paintings. Last November the plaintiff exhi bited a picture in water colours at the Pall-mall Exhibition, which the defendant agreed to purchase for £l5, and a label was fixed on it with the word " sold" written on it. The picture was entitled " Idlers," and was framed and glazed. For the plaintiff Mr. R. Thackwaite, a keeper of the pictures at the exhibition, was examined, and stated that the defendant agreed to purchase the picture in question without the frame. - . This was deni ed by the defendant, who alleged that he bought the picture with the distinct under standing that the frame was to be included in the purchase-money agreed to be paid by the defendant. The jury found a verdict for the defendant. • SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE—This Day. LONDON, July s.—Wind this day at noon—North- Westerly; moderate breeze and fine weather, but rather cloudy.

The Earl of DENION presented a petition from tho city of Leitrim against the Sunday Trading Bill. FATE OF MAXIMILIAN. In answer to a question from Lord KIMBERLEY, relative to any official intelligence as to the fate Of Maximilian, Tho Earl of MALMESBURY stated that, as far as her Mojesty's Government sere concerned, no offioial informa tion on the subject had yet Imp recaivod, and the only confirmation had bean by the telegrams in the second edi tion of the Times. MOILRO VELHO MARRIAGE BILL. This bll was read a seecnd time. LAND TAX COMMISSIONERS' NAMES BILL This bill was committed: TILE GALWAY HARBOUR (COMPENSATION OF DEBTS) BILL. The Earl of DEVON moved that the order of the 3d May last, with respect to this bill, be dispensed with. The order was.then dispensed with. THE BLAOKWALL BRIDGE BILL. The Earl of DEVON moved that the order of the 3d May, as to this bill, be dispensed with. Thid bill was then read a second time. SALMON FISHERIES (IRELAND) ACT AMEND. MENT BILL. The report as to this bill was received, and the bill, as amended, was read a third time and passed. BRITISH WHITE HERRING FISHERY BILL. This as amended by the Commons was passed. THE LUXEMBOURG QUESTION. Lord HOUGHTON asked the noble lord at the head of her Majesty's Government as to the construction which they placed on the words " collective guarantee' in the Luxembourg treaty. He wished to know what practical effect that guarantee had. It was stated the other day, he thought, that by this guarantee all the signataries to that trusty agreed and provided that if anything of a tyrannous nature was done to wards Luxembourg that the signataries should declare that all the conditions of the treaty were at on ce null and void. It was not Greeco or Belgium or Sweden, or any of those Powers that these signataries guarded against, but Prussia or France, who wish to take Luxem burg from Holland. If the aggressor to the con ditions of this treaty was a signatary, he had the greater responsibility to answer for. There were political agitations going on in the countries of France and Prussia, and this point was one of vital importance. The Earl of DERBY said that ho was prepared to give the explanation again that he had already given, and which did not seem to satisfy the noble lord, but whatever construction he might put, or the Government and house might put, upon the words, he was sure that all viewed them with the utmost fairness. He was not much of a diplomatist, but he would impress upon them that the guarantee was collective, and there fore nothing could be done by one power with out the consent of the whole. He would call their lordships' attention to the terms of the guarantee. Prussia laid down they should have a full and free guarantee. His noble relative in the other house, in drawing up the treaty, had not inserted the word guarantee, but had declared only the neutrality of the Powers, but to this Prussia demurred, and asked for a collective guarantee, which was accord ingly complied with. He would wish the noble lord to declare his view of what a collective guarantee was. He thought that if the noble lord thought that all the Powers were bound to enforce the conditions of the guarantee, if this had been the case they could hardly have expected Prussia to have asked for such a guarantee. In 1831 there was a separate guarantee given in the case of Belgium. Earl RUSSELL much regretted the raising of the dis cussion, the previous debite upon the question having oc casioned great uneasiness in Prussia, and an unfavourable inference of what the conduct of England might be in the event of any future emergency. His opinion was that, if either France or Prussia violated the neutrality of Luxem bourg, and the rest of the Powers were called upon to en force it, there would be a moral obligation upon them to do so. He did not believe, however, that either France or Prussia had the slightest desire to violate the neutrality of Luxembourg, and he trusted it would never be thought in Europe that this country had only entered into diplomatic engagements with the view 'of retracting thorn whenever the necessity for fulfilling them might arise. After some debate, in which Lord Lyveden, Lord Strat ford de Itedcliffe, and the Duko of Argyll took part, the subject dropped. The Earl of DPIBY, in reply to Earl Russell, said that, in consequence of the reported execution of the ex-Empe ror Maximilian, the 'review appointed to be held this day would be postponed, but ho hoped Lot abandoned. Their lordships adjoin-nod at 25 minutes to 7 o'clock.- HOUSE OF COMMONS—LAST EVENING. The SPEAKER took the chair at 4 o'clock. INCREASE OF THE EPISCOPATE. Mr. GILPIN gave notice that, on the motion for tho socond reading of tho bill for tho increase of the episco pate, ho should move that the till be read a second time that day six months. THE ADMIRALTY. Mr. SEELY asked the First Lord of the Admiralty his opinions coincided 'with those expressed by the lato First Lord on the 19th February last, when ho said " that the administration of a great department by a board is a clumsy machinery," and " that the constitution of the Board of Admiralty is inconvenient and not profitable to the public service;" and, if he does agree in opinion with the late First Lord, whether he intends consulting his colleagues as to how far in their judgment a change may be desirable. Mr. CORRY said his experience as First Lord had been but short; he w as no t ye t s ensible of any inc onvenience from the present arrange ments, and as a n y alteration ought to bo approaehed with great caution, he was at pre sent indisposed to recommend any alteration of the system at present in existence to his colleagues. THE SLAVE TRADE. Sir F. BUXTON asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if his attention had been drawn to a report of an intervi ew b e t ween the Viceroy of E gypt and a deputation of the British and F orei g n Anti-slaver y Society in Paris, at which the Vi cero y stated that, " if he were free to act aga inst European slave-trader; the slave trade would soon disappear" from the Nile ; and if he was prepared to give the requisite authority to overhaul and detain slave-traders hoisting the British flag ? Lori STANLEY said his attention had only bmn drawn to the subject by the notice the hon. member had put on the paper. He believed that. the difficulty of dealing with the slaveiraZontVe African side arose more from the connivance of some of the inferior local authorities than any other circumstance. With respect to the second part of the question, he thought it ought to be approached with the greatest care. Of course, theta was no wish on the part of this country to protect the slave trade, but before such an authority to overhaul and detain ships, hoisting the British flag, was given, it would bo right to ascertain that there were not certain treaties the infringement of which might involve us in touch difficulty. OVERCROWDING OF STEAM FERRY BOATS. In reply to Mr WALDEGRAVE-LESLIE, Mr. CAVE said the law was sufficient to prevent such occurrences, viz., a penalty of £2O, and ss. for each pas senger carried over the legalised number. The only in convenience was that the party complaining of the over crowding must be the party to institute proceedings. INDIA PRIZE MONEY. Mr. T. OHAdii 3 EßS:asiedthe Secretary of State for War when the Central India prize -money would be distributed, and what had boon the cause of the long delay of nine years ? Sir J. PAKINGTON said the delay in paying the money had arisen through litigation, but that was now fortunately at an end, and therefore the prize - money would be paid without any further delay. THE FATE OF THE EMPEROR MAXIMILIAN. Mr. SANDFORD asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether any information had been received upon the subject of the alleged execution of the Emperor Maximilian by Juarez ; and if there had, what course the Government proposes to take in order to mark their abhoronce of so groat a crime. .--- Lord STANLEY said he had not yet received any offi cial communication intimat ing Emperor Maximilian , but the the death of the ex opportunities were but few, owing to the disturbed stale of the country in get ting direct communication. The death of the Emperor was believed in Paris and Vienta, and although he might fear the worst, yet, as he had already said, he had not received any official communication announcing the fact. If such was unfortunately tho case, it was a very deplorable and impolitic act—(hear, hear) —and not the less FO because acts of the same kind had taken place on both sides. He thought they ought to wait for certain intelligence before they spoke positively on the subject. Even then, should it tarn out that the ex-Emperor had been e act see what special notice of h this country. (Rear, hear.)

(He ar, hear. ) THE NAVAL lIE VIEW. . Colonel FRENCH asked the.F4TetlJord of the Admiralty what arrangements had been inqe to enable the members of both Houses of parliament to witness the naval review. Mr. WARY odd the Admigiatr had engaged tWQ Q the steamships of the Peninsular and Oriental Company for the accommodation of the members of both Housesof Par liament. Four hundred tickets not transferable would be issued by the Admiralty to the House of Lords and 450 to the members of the House of Commons. Special trains would be arranged for conveying the members to Ports mouth, but they would have to pay their own railway faros. (Hear, hear, and loud laughter.) THE FENIANS. Mr. F. DICK asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland whether there was any truth in the report which had, appeared in some of the London and Dublin papers of a number of Fenians having been detected by the police whils:t drilling last week iu the neigl.bourhood of Wick low ; and, in that case, how far the drilling in question had been carried out ? Lord NAAS said that throe or four of the police had certainly discovered some parties drilling, and two persons had been arrested, the rest, about twenty, running away. The only military words heard by the police were "Right ;time, face; quick march." laughter.) TUE REVIEW IN lIYDE PARK. Captain VIVIAN said he wished to ask thu Secretary of State for War whether it was the intention to hold the review in Hyde Park to-morrow ? Sir J. PAKINGTON 'aid the house bad already been informed by his noble friend the Secretary for Foreign Affairs that no official intelligence had been re ceived from Mexico. Nu command had yet been issued from any quarter to countermand the review. (Hear, hear.) Viscount CRANBORNE asked whether it was intended to have a mcrning sitting of the house to-morrow. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said he did not propose asking the house to meet early to-morrow. REPRESENTATION OF THE PEOPLE —THE FOUR BOROUGHS NOT TO BE ENFRANCHISED. On the motion for going into committee, The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that it was of the greatest importance that the bill should be completed as speedily as possible, in order that the other house might have proper time allowed it for the consideration of the measure—(hear, hear)—as he gathered that the house was generally in favour of the distribution of members as proposed by the Government ; and after the house had bottled the clause proposed by the hon. member for Oldham, he proposed that they should at once proceed to consider the schedules of the bill. (Hear.) The determination of the house to give an additional member to faur of the large constituencies, had rendered it necessary to reconsider the original proposal of the Government with respect to the boroughs to be enfranchised, and the places they now proposed to omit, to provide those four members, wore St. Helen's, Keighley, Luton, and Barnsley. (Oh, oh, and hear, hear.) Mr. BRIGHT generally approved of tho determination of the Government. • Mr. GLADSTONE said he could not agree to the pro posal of the Government to go at once to the consideration of the schedules. He had a proposal to divide South Lancashire into two divisions, returning three members each, and if he assented to the Government proposal he should be precluded from bringing that matter before the house. Mr. LOWE said the Government was entirely to blame for all the delay, as they had bungled the question of Reform from the very, beginning. They commenced by way of resolution, and from that time they had gone on in the most roundabout way. (Hear, hear.) He certainly should not abandon his proposal for the cumulative vote till he had taken the vote of the House. (Hear, bear.) Mr. LAING said, on account of the advanced period of the session, he would postpone his proposal for grouping. (Hear, hear.) Mr. BOUVERIE said it appeared to him that the only object of thus persisting in pressing these proposals in Committee was delay and ultimate loss of the measure. (Hear, hear, and no, no.) He thought the Government propose I a reasonable ono. POSTPONEMENT OF THE REVIEW. At this point in the debate, The Chancellor of the Exchequer rose, and, amidst the utmost silence, said a communication had a short time ago been made to the house with respect to the Review. Since that time, however, official information had been received which would prevent her Majesty attending, in company with the mem bers of the Houses of Lords and Commons. Under these circumstances the review, fixed for to-tifbrrow, would be postponed, but only for a few days, when her Majesty hoped to be able to attend that review, iu company with her faithful Commons. At the request of Colonel FRENCH, Sir J. PAKINGTON stated the nature of the arrange ments for the accommodation of members ef both houses on the occasion of the naval review at Spithead. Four hundred tickets and a special train would, ho said, be pro vided fur the members of each house, who are to have a luncheon at. the cost of the Admiralty, but who will have to pay their own railway fares. The house having gone into committee on, the Reform Bill, The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER made a formal motion for reporting progress, in order to enable him to make a suggestion that after Mr. Hibbert's clause to make charges for conveying voters to the poll at borough elections illegal, the committee should i roceed to the con sideration of the schedules. Should the house accede to this suggestion, the remaining clauses of which private mem bers had given notice could be discusend on the bringing up of the report, and the bill might go to the House of Lords in time to receive the deliberate consideration of that assembly. He feared, however, if this course were not adopted, it would be difficult to set limits to the length to which their discussions might be protracted. The right lion. gentleman added that he proposed to get a third mem ber for Liverpool, Manchester, Birmingham, and Leeds by giving up the scheme of enfranchisement originally pro posed for St. Helens, Keighly, Luton, and Barnsley. The suggestion of the Chancellor led to a somewhat dis cursive debate, in the course of which Mr. Bright expressed his opinion that there was a great deal of reason in it, and recommended the house to agree to it. The hon. gentle man also read a letter addressed to him by Mr. %V. H. Reece, of Dartmouth, imploring him to use his influence to get that borough disfranchised on the ground of its exten sive and irredeemable corruption. Mr. John Hardy (mem ber for Dartmouth) admitted that the borough was not im maculate, but contended that it was no worse than many others, and that it would be unreasonable for apy Whig to insist upon the disfranchisement of a place so close to the historic spot at which the great reformer, William of Orange, had lauded. Mr. Lowe expressed himself dissatis fied with any mode of manipulating the bill which could deprive him of the privilege of taking the sense of the house on the principle of cumulative voting. Mr. Bouverio and Mr. White approved of the plan as calculated to facili tate the progress of the bill, and eventually the subject dropped ; and the committee resumed the consideration of the clause proposed by Mr. Hibbert, making the payment of expenses of conveying voters to the poll illegal. Mr. llib bert stating he was willing to exclude counties from the operation of the clause, and also to make an exception in favour of the boroughs of Retford, Shoreham, Aylesbury, and Crickdale, a division was taken on the motion that the clause bo read a second time, which was agreed to by 166 to 101. A proposition to include Wenlock among the excepted boroughs was subsequently negatived, and the clause was ordered to stand part of the bill. A clause proposed by Sir T. D. LLOYD to declare illegal the employment by committees for election purpcses of rooms in houses licensed fur the sale of intoxicating liquors underwent considerable discussion. Much time was wasted and many impractieable amendments were inrroducod, until at length the house gladly availed itself of a motion to negative the, clause in globe, which was done on a division by 167 to 98. Mr. LOWE next proceeded to move his clause in favour of cumulative voting. It provided that at any contested election for a county or borough represented by more than two members, and having more than ono seat vacant, every voter should bo entitled to a numb° r of votes equal to the number of vacant goats, and might give all such votes to one candidate, or might distribute them among tho candidates, as ho thought fit. This proposal, he observed, was the last of the expedients which could bo suggested for giving some variety to the franchise, and if this failed to receive the approval of the committee he feared they must content themselves with having a uniform franchise placed in the hands of the lowest classes of the community. Mr. LIDDELL moved that the Chairman report pro gross, urging that the subject was of too much importance to be discussed at midnight. Mr. T. HUGHES spo ke in su pp ort of the clause, after which the house divide d, and the motion to report pro gress was negatived by 213 to 88. • Sir C. RUSSELL then moved that the Chairman leave the chair ; and, after a short discussion , t h e Ch a nd the the Exchequer assenting , p ro g ress was reported,nc of Chairman obtained leave to sit again this dy. a S eve ral bills wore advanced a stage, and housee ad iourned at 20 minutes past ono uutil tivo o c lock this day. THE WIMBLEDON REVIEW--To enable the necessary arrangements to bo made, it the review at i t his requested that Volunteer corps intending to take par Wimbledon on the 20th instant will send in their applca- Lions for permission to attend in the usual manner (on W. 0. Form, 1,629) as early as possible. No applications will be received at the War-Once after Monday, the 15th instant. In making their applications for permission to attend, commanding officers should state whether the corps under their command will march to Wimbledon, or go by railway to Wimbledon station, or by steamboat to Putney.—George Erskine, Colonel.

Tho Abbevillois, au eminent French political and literary journal, contains, under date Tuesday, the 9th of last month, a long critical article on the subject of that work ; in which aaticle, after an able survey of the phases through which both the so called utilitarian literature and the light literature of Eng land have passed and are passing, and after some compli mentary reference to the author himself and to his former productions, this passage occurs :—" Mais revenous au livre 8 ninemment remarquable dont it s'agit, Dion et les Sibylles,' vaste panorama retrospec tif qui nous reports 18 sieeles, et nous fait vivre de la vie mtime des Romaine des Atheniens et des 116breux du tern's d'Auguste et de Tibere. On y re marque surtout un tableau vivant et d'une veriti frappante des 30 premieres annees du premier Siecle Chretien. . . . Bref, on reconnait partout dans son oeuvre le Chretien, le savant, et le gentilhomme." ("In short all through his work one recognises the Christian, the scholar, and the gentleman." Only the term savant is imperfectly given in English by "scholar,"—which is the only word, however, we can think of, wil hout coining some roundabout equi valent.) Tho critique occupies a column of close French type in a rather large-sized journal, and is the latest of a long Series of tributes paid now on both sides of the Eng lish Channel, and indeed of the Atlantic, to tho character of the remarkable book which it roviows.—The Bermuda Royal Gazette. 190 100 100 1(0 100 100 Of i 109 8 IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT HOUSE OF COMMONS.

Owing to the fractiousness of Lord Glasgow's unnamed colt, the start was delayed for a short period, but when the word was given the nine competitors gat off on the most oquitable terms. Athena was the first to show in advance with a slight lead of Pearlfeather on the right, Leonie and Formosa side by sidelying at the quarters of the favourite on the lower ground. They ran in this order till half-way down the hill, when the favourite began to give way, and before half the distance had been traversed was hopelesAy beaten. Pearlfeather now had the lead of Leonio and For mosa, while Suffolk, who had been outpaced and shut in began to improve his position, but half-way up the hill to the finish Pormosa took up the running, and although challenged resolutely and gamely by Leonie, Mr. Graham's filly won very easily by 4 length. Suffolk, who did not seem to relish the hill, finished three lengths in rear of the Duke of Hamilton's filly and about half a length in advance of Pearlfeather; Lord Glasgow's colt was fifth, Athena sixth, Miracle seventh, and Citron last throughout was beaten off.

The arrivals of English wheat fresh up this morning, coastwise and by land-carriage, were very limited, yet, the demand for all kinds, owing to the favourable accounts at hand respecting the crops, ruled heavy, at prices barely equal to Monday. With foreign wheat we were fairly supplied. Good and fine samples supported previous rates; but inferior kinds were dull, and lower to sell. There was a slight improvement in the inquiry for floating cargoes of grain at very full prices. Both English and foreign barley moved off slowly, at Monday's quotations. Malt was in fair request on former terms. The supply was tolerably good. There was about an average business doing in oats, at previous ourrencies. The imports have boon seasonably large. Both beans and peas worn a slow sale, lot prices wero supported. - The flour trade was in a sluggish state, at last week's quotations. siur ARRIVALS MIS WEEK. 'Wheat. Barley. Malt. Oats. Flour.
