ZONE Y MARKET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE, TWELVE O'CLOCK. In the Discount Market there has been no in crease in the demand for accommodation, and_ first class short-dated paper is readily negotiable at 1-; 1 1 per cent. At the bullion office of the Bank the sum of £33,000 was received in bar gold, and there was a Withdrawal of 20,000 sovereigns for Turkey. The Reigate has arrived - from Australia with about £96,648 ; and the Scotia, from New York, has £22,900. The directors of the Bank of England have (.1.3- dared a dividend of 41 per cent. for the past half- Year, the previous one being 1 per cent. higher.

The coal traffic, however, bears a favourable comparison with 1866. The net profits, after deduction of interest and working expenses, amounted to £19,398, of which £18,714 is appro priated to the payment of a dividend at the rate of 7 per cent., leaving a balance of £684 to be carried forward. Atlantic and Great Western Railway Debentures remain at 24 26, and the Consolidated Mortgage Bonds at 21 22. In the Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets during the last few days there has been rather less animation. The public sales of Indian tea have, however, concluded, showing a decline of 2d. to 3d. per lb. for inferior qualities. Sugar have main tained steady rates ; while coffee, rice, fruit, and spices have generally been a shade cheaper. Tallow has been in moderate request at about former rates.

The directors of the Port Phillip and Colonial (old Mining Company have received advices from their resident director, Mr. Bland, at Clones, dated July 25, 1867, as follows :—" Quartz Crushing. — The quantity of quartz crushed during the month of June was 4,654 tons, yielding 2,839 ozs. 13 dwt. of gold, or an average of 12 dwts. 5 grs. per ton." The above return is a very satisfactory one, not withstanding a reduction in the yield of 1 dwt. 6 grs. per ton, as compared with the May return. I le yield is still keeping up. The best quartz s eems to be coming from two slopes on Robinson's reef, above the 374 feet level. /Ve are getting good stone, however, from Portions of all the reefs. The receipts f or June were £106,89 Os. 31. ; expendi ture, £4,850 Os. 4d.; profit, £5,839 53. 11d. Added to which is a balance of last month, viz., £lO6 16s. 7d., which shows an available balance o f £5,946 2s. 6d. The amount divided between t he two companies was £5,000, of which the Port Phillip Company's proportion is £3,250. In addi tion to amount divided, Mr. Bland paid £9OO on Water account. Mine.—All the work in and about the mine is going on very well. Sinking the north shaft has not proceeded at such a rapid rate the l as t f ew wee k s as it did; a s h or t ti m e before, the ground having got harder, with quartz veins in it. These have now mostly dis appeared, and sinking is again easier. The depth at the present time is 66ft. below the No. 6 Plat, and just to where the cap-piece of the No. 7 Plat Will come. Total depth from surface, 583 ft. Machinery.—The stamps are all in good order, and doing a satisfactory amount of duty. Tile engines and boilers are also working Well, and the latter not giving us any trouble now that we are using soft, clear water. The tailings pumps are not now at work, the late floods having cleared out the creek sufficiently to allow the tailsand to run without requiring to be hf ted. Return for month of July—Quantity of quartz crushed for four weeks, 4,657 tons ; yield for t hree weeks, 2,410 oz. 15 dwts of gold, or an aver age of 14 dwts 4 grs. per ton ; remittance, £3,000. Vice-Chancellor Sir Richard Malins has this day appointed Mr. George T. Hart (of Hart Brothers and Co.) official liquidator to the East India Cotton A gency ( Limited). Two O'CLOCK.

THE MURPHY Mon.—Louis Kelly, one of the men who was tried and convicted at the last Warwick assizes for being concerned in the skirmish in Park-street, where a policeman was seriously injured, during the Murphy riots at Birmingham, has just received a free par don. Although convicted with the other prisoner; consi derable doubts existed at the trial as to his identity. THE PROPOSED BANQUET TO MR. DISRAELI IN EDINBURGH.—A meeting of Scotch Conservatives was held in Edinburgh on Wednesday—Mr. Dundas, of Arniston, in the chair—at which it was resolved to invite the Chancellor of the Exchequer to a banquet to be held in the city. It is confidently expected that Mr. Disraeli will accept the invitation, and, if so, the banquet will probably take place on or about the 29th of October. THE ABYSSINIAN EXPEDITION.—About 700 tons of pig-iron has just been despatched from South Stafford shire to be sent out to Abyssinia. It is understood that the iron is intended to bo cast into shot on the way out, and that crucibles for that purpose will be taken on board with it. The pigs aro those known as the Birchills Furnace iron, and they were sant from Bloomfield, near Tipton, by railway, to Victoria Basin. Though not of the best quality of iron they aro not of the worst, and will stand the turning to which, after they have been cast, they will have to be subjected. THE WAGES QUESTION. —The Association of Printers Readers' has called a meeting on the wages ques tion for Tuesday next, at which Charles Dickens, Esq., has consented to preside. It appears that the average salary for an average week of 53 hours is a trifle over £2 (in what are called bookwork houses), and as all other branches of the printing business have recently expe rienced an increase in payment, the readers, finding their position anomalous and unsatisfactory, are about to re present their condition to their employers, in the hope that it may be bettered. THE IRON TRADE.—A steady improvement has been observable in the South Staffordshire iron trade for some weeks, and it still continues. There was a good attendance at the weekly meeting at Birmingham yester day afternoon, and the tone was altogether better. Addi tional orders have come to hand, and inquiries, which are probably to be followed by orders, are not infrequent. Prices for pigs are still firm, and the demand for bars, hoops, and 511fetS is good! THE SUN, LONuON, FiIIDA.Y. EVENING, sEprEmßEa 13, 1867. SHARE LlST—This Day. Share; Railways.

MANSION-HOUSE. REVOLTING CRUELTY TO A HORSE.—This morn ing James Foster, described as the representative of a Manchester firm, was charged before the Lord Mayor at the Justice-room of the Mansion-house with driving a horse in an unfit state, and suffering from several dreadful wounds. It appeared that about ten minutes past eleven o'clock this morning the constable on duty on Cornhill saw the prisoner dliving a horse in a trap. lle• observed that the horse had a raw sore upon the shoulder, and he called to the driver to stop, but he would not, and he had to run and stop the horse hims.df. Ile examine I the horse and found a large wound on the shoulder, and also one on the sile of the knee. There was also a wound on the back, and the horse was in a dreadful condition altogether. The prisoner SULi he bad only had the horse a fortnight, and that he had not driven him much. Ile said that he (the constable) was " a to make a job out of it to get his name up.". In cross-examination the constable said that the collar had been altered twice, and that it was a good one and soft. An officer who had viewed the horse said that the constable had not stated all connected with the matter, for he had touched the side of the leg, when the matter had run down. It was altogther in a miserable condition. The prisoner said that all he could say was that he had had the horse only three weeks, and that it had been hardly driven once out of three clays. It was a thorough-bred horse, and had been bred in the stables of the Baron Rothschild. He had driven it from Richmond to Dalston that morning, and was driving down Cornhill to catch the one o'clock train from Waterloo Station. The saddle had not yesterday chafed the wound which appeared healed, but he supposed it must have rubbed the scab off to-day, but he was not aware of it. What the officer had said was not true, and he was afraid he knew it to be so. The Lord Mayor said there appeared to be great cruelty, and he must fine the prisoner 10s. The fine was paid. GUILDHALL. DARING ROBBERY.—Edward James, a lawyer's clerk, was charged before Sir Francis Allen this morning with stealing a bottle of sherry, the pro perty of Messrs. Spiers and Pond, the refreshment contractors. Mr. Lewis, jun., attended for the prosecution. He stated that last evening, about half - past five o'clock, the prisoner went to the refresh ment-room at the Ludgate -hill Railway Sta tion, and called for some refreshment. While he was being served, one of the young women serving at the bar saw him take a decanter off the counter and put it under his coat. She jumped over the counter, her crinoline demolishing a bottle of sherry. (A laugh.) She called out " Stop thief," and the prisoner was stopped by a gentleman who was on the platform, whom he requested to let him go. However, he was given into custody, and taken to the sta tion. On . being searched only a few pence were found on his person. A bottle of brandy had some time previously been missed from the refreshment room, and suspicion rested on the prisoner, but the case could not be brought home to him. It appeared that Messrs. Spiers and Pond wore subject to heavy losses from thefts committed on them, and they found it necessary to prosecute whenever they de tected any persons. The prisoner said that he had a wife and family, and was in great distress. Sentenced to two months' hard labour. STMIN STE R. A FEMALE BURGLAR.--Mary Neale, a woman about 30 years of age, was placed at the bar charged with having entered the house of Mr. Hetherington, 7, South-street, Chelsea, to rob it. Prosecutor said that between 9 and 10 last night his wife went down into the front room ou the basement and there found things in considerabt3 disorder. A bed had been turned over, and there were several bundles of clothes lying - about. It . was evident that then.: was some thief about the place, and he went to the room accompanied by another person. They searched the lower part of the house and found no one, but suddenly dis covered the prisoner squeezA up in the corner of a cellar behind the door. She was under the in fluence of liquor. Mr. Selfe—Did she say anything? Prosecutor—l have only been in the house three wee ks. Previous to that she was a lodger there, and she said she had made a mistake. Mr. Selfe—What mistake ? Prosecutor—Had mistaken her abode—had come back to her old lodgings. Mr. Selfe—Did she lodge in the coal cellar, then ? Prosecutor—No, no—the kitchen. I wish to give her all the benefit I can. prosecutor, said that a lth oug h p r isoner had been Mary Beach, who drinking she knew examined the place with the perfectly well what she was about. Had the child been placed in its bed as usual it might have been suffocated by the removal of the things. Prisoner said she did not know what she did. Mr. Selfe said she was quite sober enough to en deavour to hide herself, and cotninitted her for six weeks. MARLBOrtouGil-STREET. THROWING BOILIN G WATER OVER A WOMAN.— Sarah Creed, an in ma t e o f St. James's Work house, was charged before Mr. Knox with behaving in a refractory manner in St. James's Workhouse, and also with assaulting Eliza Shaw, another in mate, by throwing boiling water over her. Eliza Shaw said that on the previous evening she was sitting down, speaking to another female about her e brother, the when the prisoner, who was engaged near copper the laundry, threw a panuikin of boiling water over h er b ac k, which was still very painful. The prisone r en t er tained an ill feeling to n. wards her, and her life was in danger. The prisoner asked the complainant what was the cause of her throwing the water. The complainant said she did not know. The prisoner said the complainant did know, and should not tell lies. Maria Stevens, ,another inmate, said she was speaking to the previous witness when the prisoner called out to her (witness) to do her work, and the prisoner then deliberately threw a pannikin of boil ing water on Shaw. She believed Shaw and the prisoner had quarrelled previously about a man at the gate who had been discharged, and the prisoner also struck Shaw while in the master's office. The Prisoner said her place was to see that the witness Stevens did her work. Emma Barrett, another inmate, said she had heard some ono call the prisoner " Black Sambo" (the prisoner is a young woman of dark complexion), and in the height of passion prisoner took a panni kin of boiling water out of the copper and threw it, but not at any particular pers on . Th e pr i soner, had been greatly aggravated through an who used to b e at the gate having jealousy, horvever a roan just given his company to one female and then to another. Sergeant Brady, acting inspector, said that when he took the charge the complainant was tinder the influence of drink, and he pointed the circumstance out to the porter. Robert Bradley, porter at the workhouse, said that the woman Shaw was under the influence of drink, but how she got it was a mystery. The prisoner was a well-conducted woman. The witness said that had the witness Stevens attended to her work nothing would have occurred. Mr. Knox said he should order both the com plainant and the prisoner to be bound over, and he should recommend the master of the workhouse to keep them as far apart as he could. WHOLESALE STEALING OF BELL KNOBS.—Henry Beaumont, a young man, was charged as follows — Police-constable Joseph Edwards, 224 C, saw the prisoner standing in the doorway of the house of Sir F. Monro, No. 9, Upper Grosvenor-street, but the prisoner catching sight of him walked away. The officer followed him, and asked what he bad been doing at the doer, when l e said that he bad gone to the house to see a fellow-servant, but directly afterwards said the officer had made a mis take in seeing him at the door. The officez not being satisfied with the prisoner's account of him self took him into custody, and on going back to the house of Sir F. Mpnro found a bronze bell knob had been attempted t be taken off, and on making inquiries respecting ihe prisoner was infoimed by his landlord that he dld not know how the prisoner got his livelihood. Inspector Bowles said that within the last fort night about 40 bell knobs and escutcheons had been stolen from the neighbourhood of Grosvenor-square. Remanded. TI - I:\_ 1I ES, SANITARY IMP ROVE 31 ENTS Iv Pt.Pl, R —Th Board of Works for the Poplar district have been for some time actively enjavd in the laudable task of enforcing the provisions of the Sanitary Act. A. few days since Caroline Swithers was convicted by Mr.. Raison for not having complied with the order of the Board to carry out sanitary works in six houses belonging to her in Hants-row, Poplar. Mr. Layton, the clerk to the Board, a most able and zealous officer, gave a dreadful account of the state the six houses were in.

All shooting licences and permits to carry arms are suspended and called in for revision, no matter by what authority grante3, for how long a pet iod, or in whose favour. " 2. Those persons desirous for legitimate reasons of continuing to hold such licences and permits, or to acquire the right to possess them, must apply to the proper authorities in the province where they reside. These authorities, after such inquiries as they may deem suitable, may grant or refuse the application, being guided mainly by the reasons upon which it is based. In either case they will notify such request to me, together with the grounds for granting or refusal. Detailed registers of all the permits granted will be kept at the Civil Governor's office and the headquarters of the Captain-General. "3. Owners of arm factories, armourers' shops, and public vendors of arms must solicit and obtain similar permits iu order to carry on their business. They are to send in lists of the aril's at present in their possession, and will be subject under the most stringent responsibility to all the conditions . the authorities may think proper to imposlupon them, in order that the increase and diminution of their stock from time to time may be made known. "4. The absolute prohibition to use and possess arms is repeated with regard to all who shall not obtain the authorisation expressed in Art. 2. Offenders will be considered as disturbers of the public peace. " 5. All arms for the possession or use of which permits have not been obtained shall be delivered up within the space of a fortnight from this date.

Refusal or . delay upon the part of private persons to comply with this order will be considered and punished as resistance to the public force. "6. I reserve to myself the right of ordering domiciliary visits. All persons who in consequence thereof shall appear guilty of concealing arms will 4e tried by council of war, as ordered by Art. 3 of the decree of August 17 last. • (Signed) "ANTONIO M. GARRIGO."

The following is a translation from the Greek of the report of Captain A. Courantis, late captain of the Arcadi, on the destruction of that vessel, to the Board of Directors of the Greek Steam Navigation Company at Syra " OMALOS, Aug. 12-24. "We left Syra on the morning of Sunday, the 6-18th inst., and anchored at Aya-Routneli abut eleven o'clock the same night. During the run across we met with no obstacle, but we had scarcely commenced landing our cargo when the men on the look-out reported that several of the enemy's cruisers were in sight, and were making towards the spot where we lay. In =sequence, after having put ashore three boats' loads of our cargo, and taken off three families and 30 volunteers, we were obliged to steam for Preveli in the province of Ay-Vassili. We had not, however, anchored in this latter creek when the appearance of other Turkish cruisers and the approach of daylight caused us to change our tactics and put out to sea with the idea of re turning the next night towards the coast. We spent the whole day of Monday, the 7-19th, behind the small island of Ganda, and at night, about nine o'clock, were heading for Aya-Roumeli, when we perceived a Turkish steamer bearing down on us, which we recognised as the same that had blockaded the Arcadi in the port of Cerigotto about three months ago. On seeing her we immediately turned back, and the Turkish steamer having by means of various signals given the alarm to the other vessels of the blockading squadron, opened fire when she got within about two miles of us. After an hour's chase, when the cruiser had reached within musket shot, we replied with our ship-guns, while our sailors and the volunteers on board, being all armed, opened a smart and well• sustained fire upon the enemy. In this way, firing and fired at, we arrived abreast of Cape Krion Metopon (Ramshead), when we sighted two other Turkish cruisers bearing down upon us. Just as we were doubling the Cape, a shell from the enemy damaged the shaft of our starboard paddlewheel, which stopped acting, so that the Arcadi losing her way on, and lopsided on account of her broken wheel, began to bear round of her own accord. We therefore turned head on to the Turkish steamer, which immediately sent a full broadside into us, and then, following our movement, ran down upon us at full speed. The collision took place at once, and if we had not manoeuvred so as to avoid being taken full side on, we must inevitably have been sunk ; bat, as the ship still answered her helm, we managed to escape the most dangerous shock, so that the enemy's bow struck us only obliquely on the starboard bow, which she stove in, both paddle-boxes jamming against each other. At this critical moment all my men displayed remarkable coolness and courage ; axe in hand, they dashed forward to board the enemy, but uufortun ately she was higher than us, and only three succeeded in clambering over her bulwarks and jumping upon her deck, where they fell, riddled with wounds. Both vessels steamed on in this way fighting side by side for about a quarter of an hour, at the end of which the well-sustained fire of our men had silenced that of the enemy ; their crew had been swept off the paddle-bridge, and a portion of them had been driven off their deck, when the Turkish commander sheered off from us, and backed his vessel away. But notwith standing the retreat of the enemy, seeing that we were in danger of sinking if we pursued our course, and that we were in the midst of three fires, after three hourslafighting, I turned the Arcadi's head to land, and ran her ashore. We subsequently effected the landing in safety of the families wo had on board, the volunteers, and the crew. Having got all these ashore we set fire to our ship in order that it might not fall into the hands of the enemy. In this combat we lost three of our crew killed and seven wounded ; there were also 10 volunteers wounded. After landing we proceeded to Omalos.—l am, &c., (Signed) ~A . COURANTIS, Captain. " PA—After three days' march I arrived with the other officers, the engineers, and the crew at Omalos, where we have found but little relief on account of the destitution which prevails here. The sailors are barefooted and naked, although the Cretan deputies promised us pecuniary aid. " A. C." Foreign inau raoKet List. MAILS DUE. Australia and New Zealand, via tiouthamptou Sept.l9.
