MONEY MARKET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE, TWELVE O'CLOCK. The demand for accommodation in the general Discount Market continues very limited, and the rates demanded for the negotiation of first-class short -dated commercial paper ranges from 2i to 2:1 per cent., the supplies available being more than sufficient for the requirements. The stun of £l,OOO was withdrawn from the Bank of England on Saturday. The operation towards clearing off the whole of the Mortgage Debentures of the Atlantic Telegraph Company is progressing sati,factotily. Upwards of £40,000 have already been subscribed for that pur pose, and in addition thereto one of the largest shareholders has addressed a circular to his fellow shareholders, of whom there are 4,000, offering to subscribe the sum of £4,500 to the completion of the object, provided the other shareholders will respond in proportion to their holdings. When this debt is removed there is little doubt that the debt of the Anglo-American Company will be shortly Paid off, and the original company, after all its re verses, will come in to the full enjoyment of its valuable property. During the past week the re ceipts have averaged £1,230 per diem. Front the manufacturing districts the accounts for the past week have generally been of an unsatis factory character. At Manchester dullness has pre vailed, and a further decline has taken place in the values of cloths and yarns, consequent upon the depression in the cotton market at Liverpool. In the woollen districts of Leeds, Bradford, and Huddersfield trade has been remarkably quiet, and but few dealings have been entered :into in seasonable goods. The hosiery and lace departments at Leicester and Nottingham have shown no mate rial alteration ; and in the hardware districts of 13irminghant, Sheffield, and Wolverhampton little change of importance can be reported in many of the principal branches of business carried on. At the half -yearly meeting of the Australasian Joint-stock Bank, held in Sydney on the 31st January last, the profits were stated at £40,316, out of which a dividend of 8 per cent. per annum was declaxed, and a sum of £19,000 transferred to the reserve fund, to meet the heavy losses arising f rom the numerous mercantile failures that occurred during the late monetary pressure in the colony, a fu of £55,000 was appropriated from the reserve nd, which now stands at £50,107. To mark their sense of the energy and tact with which Mr. Richardson surmounted the difficulties which th reatened the credit and position of the bank, through the f a il ure of the Consolidated Bank here, Its London agent, and for his successful negotiations with the National Provincial Bank of England (by w hich its honour and credit were m a i n t a i ne d), the directors have awarded that gentleman a donation o f £l,OOO. Two o'C LOCK. According to Reuter's telegram from P aria to day, the French Rentes were 66.70. Heavy. Consols are steadily cre e pi ng u p, 4per cent. t he been a d c l ed to their marketable value ; latest prices, therefore, are 901 91 for transfer, as well as for the account. This Sustained buoyancy is attributable to the abundance of money and the demand for st ock on behalf of the investing public. Speculato rs too are purchasing rather freely. M ore confidence Li lik ewise felt in the probable solution at an early date of the different political questions which are still exciting so much attention throughout the Continent.

Sheriffs Waterlow and Lycett (the joint sheriffs for Middlesex) presided. Mr. Labouchere (nephew of Lord Taunton, and son of the late Mr. J. Labouchere, the banker) w as proposed by Mr. Humphrey, the coroner for East Middlesex, and seconded by Mr. R. Freeman. After having been elected, Mr. Labouchere thanked the electors and declared himself a Liberal. It was a very tame affair. No music, no flags, no excitement —nothing but a little row. COMMENCEMENT OF TERM. Term commenced to-day, on which occasion the Judges breakfasted with the Lord Chancellor at his residence, Eaton-square, and then proceeded in procession to their respective courts at Westminster. Their lordships arrived shortly before two o'clock, and immediately proceeded with public business ; but the lateness of the hour precludes any report. ARCIIBISIIOP MANNING has obtained of the Pope an Indulgence of one year to all who shall devoutly recite the Gloria Patri and Ave Maria, with tke tentiun of obtaining from God the perfect conversion o the English nation to the obedience of the faith and re conciliation to th© chair of St. Peter.—The Observer. DISTRESSING ACCIDENT.--OR Saturday morning a boy only 11 years old, named Thomas Walton, whose parents live in Wolverhampton, died in the hospital in that town, from the effects of shocking injuries sustained the previous afternoon iu a pit on the Sedgley-park Deceased had been employed with another boy in hooking- on at the bottom of the shaft. Just as one of the loaded skips was being drawn up the boy is stated to have become affrighted and to have laid hold of the hook. The shaft was only 1G yards deep, and the boy being found on the hook as the load ascended an effort wag made t) get the engine stopped, but it was unsuccessful. The lad held on until he was nearly within grasp of tho bael:snian. This, . _ however, seemed to be the limit of his endurance ; ho re laxed his hold, and falling to the bottom throe of his limbs became frightfully shattered. AN IMPORTATION FROM BROBDIGNAG--OR A CRAB " VERY LIKE A WHALE !"—A correspondent of the Athenmum (apparently no other than our old friend Baron Munchauson) writes to announce that the Jardin des Plantes has lately acquired a gigantic crab, from Japan, the fore-lege of which aro no less than 4 feet 1 inch in length. " RAYMOND'S HEROINE." Three vols.—" Rar mcnd's Heroine," says the Saturday Review, " is a story which a reader will feel the better for having read, so genuine is the sentiment which pervades it, so refreshing is the acquaintance with pure and simple natures which it offers, so pleasant are the sketches which it contains, bright with the clear radiance of an open air life, or glowing with the cheerful firelight of a happy home. We recommend it to those who can appreciate the charms of a novel, through out which there makes itself unmistakably manifest the impress of generous feeling and of vigorous thought. It is also one through which there runs a vein of humour, which at once relieves and heightens its pathos, and testifies as strongly to the variety of its writer's powers as the more serious passages do to their force. Of the latter no one can entertain a doubt who has read the singularly powerful description of Walter Lee's Dream.'" SIGNS OF SPRING. --The cuckoo has already been heard and swallows seen at Shepton Mallet. Mr. GLADSTONE being unable to attend the in auguration of the Cobden statue at Manchester, which is in consequ e n ce o f h av i ng to go to Paris oarfisrin Easter connectionlionydawilh the Exhibition, the inaugura tion will be conducted by Mr. Geo. Wilson, formerly chair man of the Anti-Corn-Law League. GOLD-BEARING-GRAVEL. —Mr. Shea reports the discovery gold-bearing grave l s in the river-valleys o f Central Brunswick, and, j u d g i ng from sienna deposits in tCalifornia N California f a which have proved rich in gold, he believes that the New Brunswick beds may be worked at a profit. We have to announce the death of Mr. Thomas Vardon, for many years librarian of the House of Com mons, who expired on Friday morning at his official apart- ' milts at the Palace, Westminster. The late Mr. Vardon 1 was greatly respected. He was appointed to the post he honourably and zealously filled nearly 40 years by the Right Hon. Charles Manners Sutton (the late Viscount Canterbury). The appointment is in the gift of the Speaker. SACRED HARMONIC SOCIETY.—The 35th annual Passion-week performance of the " Messiah" takes place at Exeter Hall on Wednesday evening next, the 17th inst. Principal vocalists, Madame Rudersdorff, Madame Sainton- Dolby, Mr. Sims Reeves, and Mr. Santley. ABANDONMENT OF A SHIP.—PLYMOUTH, Sunday. —The Norwegian barque Fido, 650 tons, of Arendal, from Belize, with a cargo of logwood, was brought into Ply mouth Sound this afternoon with 7ft. of water in her hold. She was found abandoned in lat. 43 N. long. 10.40 W. by the American ship Plymouth Rock, who put seven men on board to navigate her. THE COLCHESTER MURDER.—On Friday after noon, Henry roge Draper, who has been committed on the coroner's inquisition on a charge of mut - doling Mary Ann Pettitt at Colchester on the al of Febrkiary; aVaa brought up for examination befote the iocal Magistrates, the mayor of the borough Clr% P. 0. Papillon), presiding en the bencb.. The prisoner was remanded till to-day (Monday). Draper appeared calmer when brought before the bench, but since the close of the coroner's inquiry he bee been much depressed in spirits. Whets the coroner's jury came into court at on, e'cleek on Friday morning, the foreman said, "We teturn a verdict of wilful murder—" Draper, who Was in court, ejaculated, "Oh, my God!"—th e foreman of the jury, in continuation, added, "against Henry Page Draper." Draper exclaimed, "Oh, my God 1 lam as innocent as the child in its mother's womb. As Almighty God is in heaven, I am innocent." The un happy man, who had knelt down with his head on the floor as the jury re-entered the court., rose on hearing the verdict, then full down in a swoon. When he recovered he was taken into custody by the head constable of the borough police. When ho was finally rernaved he said, "I appeal to the great Judge if I ever touched the woman, or ever went to the side of the water. If I did, m a y Almighty God never forgive me. Igo from bore with a conscience fully knowing and feeling 1 never did the deed. So help me God." Brigadier-General Sir A. Horaford, K.C.8., has returned to Aldershott from Ireland, whither he was des patched on the Fenian o.atbreak. A brigade will shortly be formed for him of the 71st Highlanders, from Edin burgh, and other regiments, and it is said that several Militia corps will also he attached to it.--United Service Gazette.

MARK-LANE. The country markets held on Saturday wore firm for wheat at is to 2s per qr. more money. The foreign markets continue firm for all kinds of produce. The imports of foreign and colonial produce into London last week wore liberal. Only a limited quantity of English wheat was received up to our market this morning, coastwise and by land carriage; whilst the condition of the samples was only middling. The trade was by no means active; neverthe less, in the few sales effected, factors succeeded in esta blishing a furthsr advance in the quotations of 2s per qr. Then; was a slight improvement in the demand for orAgn wheat, the show of which was by no means ex tensive, at is to 2s per qr. more money. Fliating cargoes of grain were firm at the recent advance. Very little either English or foreign barley was brought forward. On the u hole, the trade was sternly, and malting parcels were is. per quarter dearer than on this day fortnight. The sale of malt was inactive ; nevertheless, last week's prices were supported. The oat trade was active at quite ls. per quarter more money. Tho supply of oats was by no means extensive. Beans met a slow inquiry at late currencies. The sup ply was rather limited. The few peas on the stands were taken off slowly, on former terms. The flour trade was steady, and the quotations had an upward tendency. Linseed relapsed, and most other seeds were inactive, at late quotations. Cakes moved off slowly, at late rates. sales lower rates must be submitted to, although prices on the Continent, as well as in America, continue high. Mid and East Keats l6ss to 220 s per cwt.

BOW-ST EEET. DARING ROBBERY AT A WATCHMAKER'S.—TWO shabbily dressed young men, named John Green and Alexander Simpkins, were charged with stealing 7 gold watches, valued at £66, from the shop of Mr. Skelton, clock and watchmaker, 43, St. Martin's-lane. Mr. Porter appeared for Simpkin and Mr. Abrams for Green. _ . _ Mr. Skelton stated that on the 9th March he went out about four o'clock and returned at about five, when he found that about 9 or 10 gold watches had been taken from the glass case. He knew the numbers and makers names of 7 of them. Catherine Cox, housekeeper to the last witness, said that shortly after her master went out a cabman came to the dom . and asked her to speak to a passenger in his cab. She went to the door of the cab, but on looking round, and seeing some man in the shop, returned to the door. The man seized her in the passage, by . the shop door, and flung her to the back of the shop. She believed the prisoner Simpkin was the man. On coming to the door she saw the same man and another, whom she believed to be Green, running away, and begged a gentleman to pursue them. They had robbed the shop. She had missed some of the watches, especially throe or four, which wore kept in front of the case and were of peculiar appearance. She saw them safe about 3 or 4 o'clock. _lade a practice of looking to see that all was safe as she passed the shop door. John Willy, salesman at a China shop in St. Martin's lane, said he had seen these men, two of whom he believed to be the prisoners, loitering about in the lane. At the time the cab was at the door he saw the two whom he believed to be the prisoners running up the lane towards Hop-gardens, and they went down that turning. He did not see them come out of the shop, the cab being between him and the door. The witnesses were cross-examined both by the learned counsel and by Mr. Abrams as to the identity of the pri- Boners. The prisoners had been apprehended by Sergeant Ackrill and Constable Gordon (the officers directed to investigate the case) in consequence of infoimation, the nature of which did not transpire, Both prisonero were remanded. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. PLATE ROBBERY IN MAYFAIR.—James Thompson, alias Riley, "no home—painter," was charged beforo Mr. Tyr whitt with stealing some silver spoons and forks, of the ♦alue of £lO, the property of the Hon. Thomas Charles Bruce, No. 13, Hertford-street, Mayfair. James Randall, servant to the Hon. Thomas C. Bruce, said—Last night, about nine o'clock, I put a dozen spoons and a dozen forks in the pantry, looking into the area, the window of the pantry being closed. I left the pantry but had not been gone more than a minute when I heard a noise and the rattling of plate. I ran to the pantry, and saw the prisoner in the area, the window of the pantry being open. As /soon as the prisoneesaw me he ran away up the area steps, and as he did so he dropped three forks. I ran after him and called "stop thief," and he was pursued by others and brought back to the house, and in the presence of a constable took some spoons and forks from his pocket. The yalue of the spoons and forks, which are the property of my master, is £lO. ' Police-constable John Widding, 369 A -I was on duty at Stanhope-gate, Hyde-park, last night, and saw the pri soner running, pursued by some person crying "Stop thief." I ran after him as fast as I could, and some gen tlemen held up their umbrellas and turned him back, and I then caught him. He raid, " It's not me; let me go, I've done nothing." I told him that I had had too much trouble in catching him to let him go, and took him back to No. 13, Hertford-street, and he gave up some spoone and forks, and three forks were picked up in the area. On searching the prisoner a ticket of admission to the House of Lords, and a complimentary ono for a .nasic-hall were found upon him. Mr. Tyrwhitt remanded the prisoner. LOAN OFFICES AND TIIEIR PRACTICES.—A gentleman waited upon the magistrate to complain of the conduct of the keepers of a loan °Mee, 84, Well-street, Oxford-street, who advertised to lend money on Satisfactory security, and, after charging 10s. or .£1 for iugniry fees, declined, on some frivolous excuse, to advance the money, and re fused to refund the amount charge I the applicants. Mr. Knox said that several similar applications had been made at that court respecting the same office. With every desire on his part to assist the applicant, he was unable to do so. What he would advise the applicant to do was to place himself in communication with a solicitor, and see if the persons could not be indicted for a conspiracy. The applicant thanked the magistrate for his advice. WESTMINSTER • a.. PITIABLE CONDITION ., OF A DESERTED WIFE.—A re spectable-looking hard-working woman, about 35 years of age, made the following application to the magistrate. She said—l have come for protection against my husband. He deserted me six years ago, leaving me with four chil dren, and another of which I was shortly after delivered. He has done nothing whatever fof me all that time, and I have had, as you may suppose, to work very hard to keep my children. My husband returned last night drunk, and I want protection. Mr. Arnold—Did he do anything to you ? Do you want protection for your person or your property ? Applicant—For my little home which I have worked hard for. Mr. Arnold—l cannot help you. Applicant —Can't 1 have any protection ? Is my hus band to break up the little home from myself and my poor children ? Mr. Arnold—You are too late; you should have come hero before your husband's return if you had wanted a protection order. his coming back, in my opinion, pre vents your having the order now. My impression is that you are no longer deserted by your husband. You can, however, try the Divorce Court. THAMES. TOBACCO SNIUGGLIXO.—Jane Macarthy, a middle-aged Irish woman, whose husband is now undergoing penal servitude for his connection with a large robbery of can- Vas, was brought before Mr. Paget charged with unlaw ftilly,carrying and conveying 201bs of foreign manufactured tobacco which had not paid duty, by which she had in curred a penalty of £lO 195., being the treble value and duty thereon.

The main feature of the movements to-day was the extraordinary demand in which Julius was for the 2,000 guineas; indeed there was so much money in the market for the Duke of Newcastle's horse that at one time 5 to 2 was only obtainable, though ultimately 3 to 1 was the current price. Plaudit was in good request at 9 to 2, Vauban hav ing the call, bar two. Hermit was often mentioned as a doubtful runner, but 8 to 1 was readily taken by those that should know something ; besides a disposition to lay against Trocadero at his price, the other quotations indicate the tone of the market.

There was a fair average supply of foreign stook in our market to-day, and sales progressed steadily on rather higher terms. The arrivals of beasts fresh up from our own grazing districts were moderately good, and in prime condition. From Scotland the receipts were rather limited from Ire land trifling. The Scotch beasts came to hand in prime order. The attendance of butchers being large, the de mand for all breeds of beasts was tolerably active at an ad vance in the quotations compared with Monday last of 2d per 81bs. The best Scots and crosses realised 5s to 2s per 81bs. From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire we received about 1,500 Scots, short horns and crosses; from other parts of Eng'and 550 various breeds ; from Scot land, 135 Scots and crosses; and from Ireland, three heifers. There was a considerable falling off in the supply of sheep compared with this day se'eunight, whilst the gene ral condition of the stock was only middling. All breeds commanded more attention, and prices advanced 2,1 to 4d per 81bs. The best Downs and half-breds, in the wool, sold at bs 10d to Os, out of the wool, 5s per 81bs. Lambs were in moderate supply and fair request on former terms, viz., 7s 41 to 8s per 81bs. About 200 came to hand from the Isle of Wight. Prime small calves were rather dearer with a steady sale.

This match was played on Saturday evening last, at the St. James's Hall. The attendance, as on the former occasion of the playing of the four-handed match, was good. Mr. Rodger (Oxford) and Mr. Wickham (Canibridge) were the representatives of the sister Universities, Oxford Jonathan taking charge of the marking board, and giving universal satisfaction. At first it was feared there would be no match at all, an objection having been raised against Mr. Wickham ou the grotind that his name was not on the college register, which should have been ascertained previous to allowing him to play in the four-banded match the day before. Eventually the objection was waived, but not with a very good grace, and play commenced at eight minutes past 6 precisely, and continued with a varying success, not calling for any special notice until 8.32, when the game stood—Oxford, 102 ; Cambridge, 50. The odds of 10 to 4 on Oxford were offered, but no takers. Oxford then got a break of 42, and Cam bridge one for 26 ; these were the two longest breaks of the match, the remainder of the points being made up of miserable eights, tens, and fif teens, from breaks which should have given many more, and on two occasions, only reaching 20. At 9 o'clock the score was—Oxford, 202 ; Cambridge, 109. Offers being now made of sto 4 Oxford wins with 100 points to spare. At 10 o'clock Oxford was 406 and Cambridge 275, the match terminating at 10.24, Oxford winning by 139. Time-2 hours 16 minutes. It had been hoped that this year an improve ment would have been seen in the play, but it proved fallacious. A comparison of the time taken to play the match, and the number of points made, will at once show to what a tedious length it was drawn out ; and it will be for the managers to con sider whether, if next year they have not more talented and better trained representatives, it would not be advisable to shorten the length of the game, the play not being equal to that which may be seen nearly every evening in any of the public billiard rooms of note in the metropolis. GENERAL JAMES LONGS7REET. The following is the letter from General James Longstreet to the New Orleans Times, alluded to in our leading article : NEW ORLEANS, March 18, 1867. In your paper of yesterday you have expressed a desire to hear the views of several gentlemen upon the political condition of the country. I find my name mentioned among the list, and pro4oed without hesitation to respond. As I have never applied myself to politics, I cannot claim to speak to the wise statesmen of the country who are de voting their energies to the solution of the problem which agitates the public mind. I can only speak tho plain, honest convictions of a soldier. It can hardly be neces sary, at this late day, to enter into a discussion of matters that are usually brought up in arguing upon the proposed plan for reconstructing the Govern ment. Indeed I think that many of thorn are not per tinent to the question. The striking feature, and the one that our people should keep in view, is that we are a con quered people. Recognising this fact fairly and squarely, there is but one course left for wise men to pursue, and that is to accept the terms that aro now offered us by the conquerors. There can be no discredit to a conquered people for ac cepting the conditions offered by their conquerors, nor is these any occasion for a feeling of humiliation. We made an honest, and, I hope I way say, a creditable, fight; but we have lost. Let us come forward, then, and accept the ends involv ed in the struggle. Our people earnestly desire that the constitutional Government shall be re-established, and the only means to accomplish this, is to comply with the requirements of the recent Congressional legislation. It is said by some, that Congress will not receive us even after we have complied with their conditions, but I can find no sufficient reason for entertaining this proposition for a moment. I cannot admit that the representative men of a great nation could make such a pledge in bad faith. Ad mitting, however, that there is such a mental reservation, can that be any excuse for us in failing to discharge our duty ? Let us accept the terms, as we aro in duty bound to do, and if there is a lack of good faith, let it be upon others. --Very respectfully, your obedient servant, JAMBS LONGSTREET.

WHAT THE WIND SAYS.—" Do you know what the December wind says, grandpa ?" asked a little child at au old merchant's knee. "No, puss ; what does it," he answered, stroking her fair hair. "Remember, the poor ! grandpa. When it comes clown the chimney, it roars, 'Remember the poor.' When it puts its great mouth to the keyhole, it whistles, 'Remember the poor.' When it strides through a crack in the door, it whispers it ; and grandpa, when it blows your beautiful silver hair about in the street, and you shiver and button up your coatytlnes it not get at your ear and say so too, in a stil mea n ?" cried l, small voice, g randpa?" "Why, what d o es the child grandpa, who, lam afraid, had been used to randy heart against such words. " You want a new muff tippet, I reckon.

"No, grandpa," said the child, earnestly shaking her head; "no it's the no-muff -and -tippet chit - dren Fin thinking of; my mother always remembers them and so do I try to."
