TxrrERSALL'S-MONDAY. Notwithstanding the very unfavourable state of the weather there was a strong muster this afternoon, both inside and outside the room, and the business of settling the accounts connected with the recent meeting at New market was actively resumed ; but although a very large amount of money changed hands, a considerable sum, in the aggregate, is still wanted. Complaints of " tightness" were numerous. Nothing was heard of the parties who found it convenient to absent themselves from Newmarket on Wednesday last. The hope of a compromise, or of some satisfactory arrangement with their creditors, appears, however, to be entertained. Not a few accounts are likely to be " wintered on," but this is not at all an uncommon circumstance at the close of the season, At intervals there was some wagering on the Worcester Handicap and the Derby ; and at the conclusion of busi ness our list of quotations was as follows : WORCESTER HANDICAP. 4to 1 agst Polestar (taken) 11 to 2 agst Little Davie (taken) DERBY. 17 to 2 agst Wentworth (to 100/.-9 to 1 also laid to 50/.) 11 to 1 agst Yellow Jack (to 501.) 22 to 1 agst Rogerthorpe (to 751.) 1000 to 45 agst Porto Rico (2,000 to 80 also laid) 1000 to 40 agst Coroner (taken) 28 to 1 agst Bird-in-Hand (t. to 1001.-30 to 1 also laid to 2001.) 1000 to 30 agst Milton (taken) 1000 to 30 agst Mr. Verdant Green (taken) 35 to 1 aast, West Langton (taken to 500 800 to 200 gat Wentworth and Fly-by-Night (t) 2000 to 300 agst Yellow Jack and Coroner (taken) 200 even between Ellington and Yellow Jack—the former "for choiee," (taken) RAILWAY TRAFFIC RETURNS.

SOUTHWARK ELECTION. Last night the respective candidates for the borough addressed considerable masses of the constituents, Air. Scovell met his supporters at the Literary Institution, in the Borough-road, where a public meeting was pre sided over by Mr. Collinson, of Blackman-street. The feature of the meeting was that the gentlemen who took part in it appeared to be respected and influ ential inhabitants of the borough. The CHAIRMAN took a view solely of the local interest of the constituency, and though he admitted the high abilities of Sir NV. Molesworth he denied that the bo rough bad been adequately represented by him. Sir C. Napier might under other circumstances have proved a formidable opponent to the present candidate, but he had not appeared in that character in the Baltic. (Some disapprobation.) Southwark, however, wanted a per son who would attend to local interests, which were so important as to require the undivided attention of a man of business. In the emphatic language of the leading organ of public opinion, they wanted the right man in the right place, and he believed that they would have him. (Cheers.) He had no doubt that in prefe rence to the old man-of-war's man the electors of South wark would take the screw propeller. (Cheers.) Mr. ScovELL then presented himself, and was received with unbounded applause. After alluding to the private circumstances of the borough, which, though locally in teresting, command no public sympathy, he urged the claims which be had as an employerand a resident among them. He pressed this not too much upon them, but his character was before them—he was well known—he trusted that he was nomen elarum et venerabile, and upon this be should take his stand. The hon. candidate then went through the various points of his address, and ex plained in detail the principles upon which he sought the suffrages of the voters. These have been already ex plained on former occasions. They partake of the charac ter usuallydescribedas "moderately liberal," and appeared to coincide with the wishes of his large and influential audi ence—an audience which, though not characterised by any great amount of discrimination may probably be taken as an exponent of the sentiments of the borough. He would not enlarge upon those topics. He did not emulate the eloquence of his predecessor, and he had no personal grievance to enlarge upon. He should be happy, how ever, to answer candidly, honestly, and openly, any question which might be put to him. Mr. T. MARTIN proposed a vote of confidence in Mr. Scovell. He drew a distinction between the representa tive of local interests and the official man, and expressed his approval of the former. He spoke in the highest terms also of Mr. A. Pellatt, but said that he thought the best member Southwark had ever had was " Obstinate Ben," as he was called, or the late Mr. B. Wood. Mr. J. PUTLEY seconded the resolution, and it was carried with acclamation. In answer to Mr. DAT, the candidate expressed him self in favour of equalisation of the poor's-rate ; and having replied satisfactorily to some other questions the mating was brought to a termination. MEETING AT ROTHERIIITHE. Last night, notwithstanding the unfavourable state of the weather, a large number of persons assembled oppo site the Europa Tavern, Rotherhithe, for the purpose of hearing an address from Sir Charles Napier. The princi pal room in the tavern was also crowded with the friends and partisans of the gallant Admiral. Mr. Chrystal was called to the chair, and introduced Sir C. Napier to the crowd as a candidate for the representation of the borough. Sir C. NArIER then made his way to the window, and was received with great cheering by the assemblage be low. He said that in a short time they would be called upon to elect a member in the place of their late lamented representative, Sir W. Molesworth, and it behoved them well to consider on whom their choice s'aould fall. They had in the field four or five candidates, and one of them was stated to be Mr. Scovell, a gentleman who was con nected with the place. There were one or two more, and they also had a saii!or. (Cheers and " Bravo.") Well, it was not his intention, nor was it his practice, to canvass the qualifications of the gentlemen opposed to him, and he thought the best and the fairest thing, in trying to gain the favour of the electors, would be to act towards each other with the most perfect good-will. He had said before that he was a sailor, having been brought up to it from his youth, and he trusted that he had always acted fearless;y and honestly in the service. He was made a commander when very young ; he would not say that he deserved it, but he got his appointment. When he became a commander be had the ball at his own feet ; it depended then upon himself and his own exertions, and in a short time he arrived at the rank of captain. He had gone through the various grades of the service since 1813, and if he had not done so with distinction he trusted that he had done so in a creditable manner. (Cheers.) His course was not all couleur de rose, for he bad been wounded—not that he would put that forth as a claim upon them, as that was one of the incidentals of the service. (Cheers.) One objection bad been made to him by his opponents, and that was that he was too old. He was sorry to say that he had ar rived at a very good old age, but he would show them that ho had got some stuff in him yet —(loud cheers) and he thought he should be able to prove if they sent him to Parliament that he was as able to work for them its some of the young ones. (Cheers.) Another objec tion that had been made to him was that he was anxious to get into Parliament to avenge some private quarrel with Sir James Graham ; it was a great public and con stitutional question as to how far a Minister of State was justified in perverting the letters of an officer for the pur pose of damaging his character in the opinion of the peo ple of England and of the Government. Another ques tion, too, arose Gut of this, for the First Lord's coadju tore justified and adopted his language, without having read his (Sir C. Napier's) despatches—a thing which often happened at the Admiralty, and one which he thought ought at once to be corrected. If, therefore, he was returned to Parliament, he would state that fact as strongly as possible. As to the existence of a private cuarre; with him and Sir James Graham, this was too insignificant a charge to be worthy of notice, for he had eompletely "smashed" Sir James already. (Great cheering.) During the French war he had, under the Duke of Wellington, served in the Peninsula throughout an entire campaign, where he had au oppor tunity of learning the art of war ; and he trusted that he had profited by the experience he there acquired. He then served in Portugal, and first hoisted the flag of liberty in that kingdom ; after which he served in Syria, where he assisted in putting an end to one of the most despotic Governments that ever existed. (Cheers.) From these facts they would see that he had not only been a sailor, but a soldier ; and he thought ho had shown that he was not devoid of a knowledge of diplomacy, as he had signed a treaty with Mehemet Ali, and had thus put an end to a war which all their ambassadors had been bungling at for four or five years. (Renewed cheering.) He then came home, and was returned to Parliament for the metropolitan borough of Marylebone, for which he sat six years, and he was not afraid of any gentleman or elector of that borough turning over the votes he had given during that time, for they would find that he had always voted well. (Che ) He had supported Sir Robert Peel in the whole of his free-trade measures, and he had voted for an improvement in the naval service of the country, which he would admit was far from being in a wholesome or healthy position. (Cheers.) If they sent him to Parliament he would assist in a complete re form of that department, and, while saving them a good deal of money, would do his utmost to procure such a vigorous prosecution of the war as would be likely to lead to peace, so that the people might again enjoy cheap bread, which, God knows, they had not at present. (Cheers.) There were many questions which might pro bably be asked of him, and he would endeavour to anti cipate them in his address. He was a Reformer when he was in Parliament, and he was a Reformer still. They had not at present got far enough in the way of reform. He was not a wild reformer, but still there were many demands of this kind that might be granted with safety to the country and satisfaction to the people at large. (Cheers.) He would not, in order to obtain a seat, attempt to deceive them with any claptrap as to univer sal suffrage. He did not think that the people were pre pared for universal suffrage, but as they advanced in sound intelligence they would be fit for it, and then he would be an advocate for its adoption. At present they must draw a line somewhere, and he thought the safest line that could be drawn was by the tax-gatherer, and that every man who paid his rates should have a vote. They had lately heard that a society had been formed for the promotion of administrative reform, but it was his opinion that they had got the wrong SOW by the ear ; that they had begun at the wrong end, for before they Lad administrative reform they must have Parliamentary reform, and before they could have Parliamentary re form they must reform themselves. If a man stood as a candidate for a borough it entailed upon him a large expense—an expense which the aristocracy liked to keep up, as the effect of it was to keep poor honest men out of Parliament, and he was sorry to say that the habits of the people did not lead them to go up unsolicited to the hustings, but candidates were obliged to run after them, and what with the time consumed in talking to them and the cost of the election it had the effect of keeping out of Parliament many men who would honestly represent them. He was opposed to that system, and, having issued his address, he hoped that if the electors preferred him they would go up early to the poll and sup port him as the right and proper man for the place. As to the war he thought it had been badly carried on, for people had beeniput in prominent places which they did not understand ; it had cost a great deal of money, and worse than all, he was sorry to say, a good deal of British blood. He was willing, however, to let bygones be by gones, for Sebastopol was taken, and the telegraph daily brought them news of Russian reverses. The Peelites were all gone ; indeed, those who called themselves so were not Peelites at all, for ho believed that if Sir R. Peel had been in office—the man who granted them free trade—he would have prosecuted the war with vigour, and brought it to a happy conclusion. Therefore, ho contended that the men who called themselves Peelites were not worthy of the name. (Cheers.) Lord Palmer ston, he believed, had the full support of the country, and he was firmly impressed that, if the whole country was polled, they would vote for his lordship as P rime Minister of this great nation. Since Lord Palmerston bad come into power they had had more energy infused into the war, more troops sent out, and, with the excep tion of the Baltic, things had gone on more prosperously. (Cheers.) In speaking of the Baltic he was going on to his ground, and the reason of the failure there was be cause a sufficient force had not been sent out. He would ask any one of those present, although they might know nothing of nautical affairs, to say what would have been the consequences if, instead of sending to Sweaborg 16 mortar-vessels, they had sent 160, and those in a proper manner? He did not believe that he had anything fur ther to touch upon, unless it was church reform. He wished to see a reform in the church, so that the bishops should not be in the receipt of enormous salaries while the working clergy had hardly any salary at all. If the poor clergyman who visited his parishioners doled out to them what he could spare from his scanty income, how seldom did the bishop take him by the hand and reward him for it ! One clergyman in his (Sir C. Napier's) own neighbourhood had done that, and had as much chance of promotion as be (Sir C. Napier) had of becoming Archbishop of Canterbury. (Cheers and laughter.) In going into Parliament he would give his general support to Lord Palmerston, but he wished it at the same time to be clearly understood that he would com mit himself to no man breathing. (Great cheering.) He had nothing to ask for himself ; his only wish to get into Parliament was for the good of his country, and, if he got there, he was in no position to receive any favour from the Government. They all knew that he was not the man to sacrifice his principles or indepen dence. He had lately rejected an honour proffered to him ; in doing so he meant no offence to his Queen, as he was ready to sacrifice his life for her, but he could not receive the honour offered to him after the manner in which he bad been treated. He had been independent all his life, and he hoped that he should be so until his dying day. The present question for the electors of Southwark to consider was who should be the best repre sentative of the masses ; and if the masses considered him to be the proper person, he hoped they would all come up to the poll early and give him their votes. The Parliament would be a short one, and it was believed would not last six months, so that if he did not satisfy them they would soon have the opportunity of turning him out. (Cheers.) Mr. LEGG said, Sir C. Napier was just the man they ought to send to Parliament. His opponent was a very respectable man ; but it was mean on the part of Mr. Scovell to seek to represent a constituency for the sake of that constituency only. He ought to represent the country generally. Sir C. Napier had more energy than he ever saw before in a matt of his age • and, in addition to this, the galla n t Ad m i ral was an ' honest man, and would truckle to no one. They had already paid 100,000,0001. for the war, and if it went on much longer they would have to pay 400,000,0001. or 500,000,0001. more, so that they particularly required a man to see that the money was properly expended. He hoped that when the time came they would all be found voting for Sir C. Napier, and concluded by moving the following resolution : "That, having heard the able,' manly, and straight forward exposition of political principles given by Sir C. Napier, we are of opinion that it is the bounden duty of the electors of Southwark to afford the gallant Admiral an opportunity of gibing effect to those principles in the British Legislature ; and we therefore pledge ourselves to use every legitimate means to return him triumphantly to the Commons' House of Parliament." The Scovellites were quaking in their shoes, and he was quite confident that Sir Charles would have a majority of 3,000 on the day of election. Mr. T. SMITH seconded the resolution. Mr. S. MURRAY, in a long speech, denounced the at tempt to support the election of Mr. Scovell by bringing in the name of Sir J. Graham, who had broken open let ters and made himself the tool of Austria. He hoped, however, that in the coming struggle each man would consider himself as the centre of a circle, and as such would do his best to establish the national honour and integrity. _ The resolution wag then put and carried unanimously, amid great cheering. A vota of thanks was passed to the chairman, and the meeting separated. CO-OPERATION WITH - THE GOVERN MEET IN MUNICIPAL IZEFORM. COURT OF COMMON COUNCIL. Yesterday, pursuant to adjournment, the Court assem bled for the purpose of proceeding in the debate on the following motion :—" That it is desirable to co-operate with her Majesty's Government in passing through Par liament a bill for the reform of the corporation, founded upon the resolutions agreed to by this Court on the 24th of February, 1854 ; that the Remembrancer be directed to prepare the draught of a bill in conformity with the above resolution to be submitted for the approval of this Court ; and that a conference be held thereon with her Majesty's Government." Mr. THOMAS H. FRY said—l introduce the subject as an independent member, having no personal or private interest to serve, no ambition to gratify, no favour to ask. All I own is to having connected myself with this important municipal institution. Having seen that it is capable of much improvement, I have a desire to become the instrument of making it what it has been in times gone by—respected from without and a centre of power and influence in accomplishing great and permanent good. They had not to discuss whether they would reform themselves, but what would be the reform made there. (Hear.) He had not been long a member of that court before he bad heard his friend Mr. Anderton say that " the corporation would never reform itself." (Hear.) He held i❑ his hand a statement made by the Consolidated Committee, and of which his friend Mr. Anderton was a distin guished member, at page 28 of which that committee, in comparing the state and condition of the last century with the present, showed that in 14 particulars the cor poration had reformed itself. They happily lived in days of great advancement and progress, when men's feelings, thoughts, and opinions were changing, and he hoped all for the better. It was for the advancement of tne pro gress of this human institution that it became necessary they should conscientiously alter and reform that cor poration. (Hear.) He thought, further, they might take as a test that the advancement and progress they had made was of that class of progress they required. The work before them was a labour of love, and not of fear ; and he thought it would he a disgrace and a shame if they did not try to bring about such reform and hn proveaaents. He concluded by submitting the following resolutions : " That it is desirable to co-operate with her Majesty's Government in passing through Parliament a bill for the reform of the corporation founded upon the resolutions agreed to at this Court on the 24th of February, 1854. " That Mr. Remembrancer be directed to prepare the draught of a bill, in conformity with the above resolu tion, for the approval of this Court, and that a conference be held thereon with her Majesty's Government." Mr. Ross seconded the motion, which he considered to be more calculated to show their sincerity in the cause of reforming themselves than the annual tournament which took place in the court before St. Themas's•day. Mr. ANDERTON said he at present entertained the opinion be bad so frequently expressed, that the corpora tion would never reform itself. Too great a variety of opinions existed among the members to be capable of being reduced to an effective plan. (Hear.) He had agreed to some changes which had been proposed, as calculated to improve their institutions, because he was determined never to oppose anything which appeared to him to be likely to lead to a desirable reform ; but be really thought it a waste of time to send to Parliament a bill founded upon these resolutions. Mr. Cox moved as an amendment that "The various resolutions of the Court of the 24th of February, 1854, be taken into consideration seriatim," and added that he wished for a reform the result of the co-operation of the Court with the members of her Majesty's Government. Mr. BARELY seconded the amendment. Deputy CORNEY wished to know from the Lord - Mayor whether a bill for the reform of the corporation was not already in existence. I.le . had been given to understand that the Lord Mayor had a copy of one in his pocket. (Laughter.) - The LORD MAYOR—A rough draught of a bill was con fidentially lent to myself. I only had it in my possession for a few hours, and that is all I. know about it. Mr. BEaLEY said he believed that the welfare of the corporation very much depended upon the steps they were now taking. The resolutions of 1854 appeared to be no surrender of the privileges of the corporation, but had nevertheless been adopted by them. The question was whether the Remembrancer should at once be in structed to prepare a bill in conformity with those reso lutions, which bill must be evidently antagonistic to the report of the commissioners. He was very anxious that no further notice should be taken of the question of re form until the bill proposed by the Government was be fore the corporation, who would then be in a condition to deal with it. (Hear, hear.) Alderman EAGLETON thought the Court would act wisely in postponing all further discus s i on on t h e su bj ect until the bill was before the Court. _ _ Mr. Cox—lf it be the desire of the Court, under the altered state of circumstances, a bill being now in pre paration, that my amendment should be withdrawn, I shall be most happy, with the consent of the seconder, to withdraw it. Mr. BARKLY—I agree to its being withdrawn. Withdrawn. Mr. BEZLET then moved, as an amendment, " Tbat no farther discussion take place* until the Court had the Government bill before them." Mr. BLAKE seconded the amendment. Mr. W. JONES said that on the occasion of the late visit of the Emperor of the French to Guildhall one of the leading members had told him (Mr. Jones) that they had no wish to interfere with the corporation if they would prepare a bill of their own. Deputy BOWER said if the amendment had been car ried as originally proposed, in all probability the Court would have approved of the first eight resolutions, but it was upon resolution No. 9 that the argument turned. It was known that the Court of Aldermen would never be allowed to continue as it was. If the corporation let matters remain in statu quo, then the bill to which allu sion had been made would be introduced into the House of Commons, and all chance of successfully defeating its provisions would be at an end. Mr. GRESHAM thought the time had arrived when the Court might, with advantage to themselves, say that they were willing to co-operate with the Government for the reform of the corporation. Mr. BELL strongly recommended the Court to resist the reduction of the number —a measure which, if car ried, would have the effect of excluding a good deal of ability and talent. In his judgment, it would be an act of folly to elect aldermen periodically, and nothing would be more derogatory to justice than that an alder man, at the end of seven years, should be seen canvass ing for re-election. Mr. T. PARKER said that the Commissioners of In quiry had investigated the subject of reform of the cor poration, and the Consolidated Committee had made a report, against which he (Mr. Parker) Lad voted 32 with M r . F ry. The commissioners recommended things t o b e d one. Of th i s num b er the Consolidated Committee had conceded eighteen, many of the re mainder b e i ng i ncons id era bl e and unimportant ; but to some of these—such as the conservancy of the Thames, takingand the away of the Chamberlain's accounts, and a few things of that kind—they could not possibly agree under any circumstances. It now p the corporationpeared that the Go vernmeut bill had been prepared a , and might depend upon it that . _the gentlemen who mad e these recommendations would support their opinion to the last. The Court would stultify thoultielvQB by agreeing PREFERENCE SHARES. St. :100 Aberdeen ' 110 115 St. 1100 ,Do. N 0.2, 7p. c 107 110 25 all Myth anclTyne lOper a. pref. (issd.slsol) ... ...

Mr. W. JONES said that, in the event of either At original motion or the amendment being negatived, he should move—" That it is desirable •to confer with he Majesty's Government in passing through Parliament a bill for the reform of this corporation, and that a com mittee of three aldermen and 12 commoners be appointed for that purpose, and to report to this Court." Mr. BLAKE said the right of appointing magistrates was the most ancient indefeasible right of the people —a right possessed and enjoyed by the people throughout the whole corporations of the country, and the people had been gradually despoiled of their privilege by the assumption by the Crown of the right to appoint magis trates. The Court had considered the question of reform in every aspect in which it could be presented to the human mind, and it was therefore not only a sacrifice of dignity, but of every claim to common sense to discuss the subject of resolutions after they had been solemnly presented and deliberately rejected and ignored by the authority to which they had been submitted. Mr. W. L. TAYLOI, after strongly urging the necessity of the practice of the Court of Aldermen drawing money from the chamber being put a stop to, said, the only question was whether the Court should prepare a bill, or whether it should be left with the Government to intro duce a measure of their own. Unless they could adopt something better than Mr. Fry's proposition, he (Mr. Taylor) would rather wait until the Government bill was laid upon the table before taking any step in the matter. (Hear.) Alderman WIRE, after defending the Court of Alder men from the general attacks made against them, con cluded by expressing a hope that the original motion would be carried. Mr. HAWKINS said be should vote for the amendment, not because he conceived it the best thing that could be proposed, but because it was utterly preposterous to adopt the resolutions in the form in which they were be- fore the Court. Mr. FRY having replied, Mr. Bezley's amendment was put and carried by a majority of 8, there being 38 hands held up in favour of, and 30 against it. The further amendment of Mr. Jones was then carried by a majority of 4, there being 32 for, and 28 against it. The following members were then appointed to confer with the Government upon the subject of the bill : Alderman Finnis, Alderman Cubitt, Alderman Eagle• ton, Mr. W. Jones, Mr. Abraham, Mr. T. H. Fry, Mr. T. H. Hall, Mr. W. L. Taylor, Mr. T. Parker, Deputy Hale, Mr. Lloyd, Mr. Wood, Mr. Ross, Mr. Cox, and Mr. Gresham. BUST or BEE MAJZIEITY. The LORD MAYOR said,—Gentlemen of the Common Council, I desire before I leave the chair to ask your acceptance of the bust of Her Most Gracious Majesty the Queen, which you perceive is placed in this Council Chamber, that it may be a memorial of the honour and happiness I have enjoyed in my frequent intercourse with my fellow citizens. It is the production of a sculp tor of great talent and rising reputation (Mr. J. Dur ham), and it is unquestionably a work of great excel lence, combining, as it does, with singular felicity the graces of the woman with the dignity of the Queen. It will be regarded as another compliment to the city of London on the part of the Queen, for when application was made to her Majesty to give sittings in order that this bust might be presented to you by me, her Majesty at once and graciously consented for this purpose to afford the sculptor all the facilities in her power, and the result is, I do not hesitate to say, a production admirable as a likeness and of the very highest merit as a work of art. There has not yet been time to execute it in marble, but in due course the sculptor will replace that which you see before you by a work that will, I am sure, receive full appreciation in the City of London, and be regarded as the most graceful and appropriate record I could leave of grateful homage to my Sovereign and of affectionate attachment to my fellow-citizens. (Cheers.) On the motion of Alderman WIRR the present was ac. cepted, and it was referred to the City Lands Committee to select a suitable place for the bust. THE CITY OF LONDON SCHOOL. The Town Clerk read the following letter:— "To the Lord Mayor, Aldermen, and Common Council of the City of London. "My Lord and Gentlemen,—Permit me the pleasure of offering to you as the patrons of that noble institution the City of London School the enclosed oheque for 50 guineas, that the interest of it may be applied as a prize, as you may think best, to the boys educated there, and if it serve in the slightest degree as an incentive to in dustry and talent I shall feel deeply gratified. Allow me also to add my acknowledgments of the many courtesies which I have received during my intercourse with the corporation for the last two mayoralties ; and, with every assurance of my sincere respect, I remain, yours faith fully, "RICHARD N. PHILLIPS. "IVlansion-house, Oct. 29." Mr. Deputy HALI 4 moved that the letter be referred to the City of London School Committee, to make such arrangements in respect to the same as may be judged necessary. Mr. Alderman WISE seconded the motion, which was carried unanimously, and the Court adjourned. Country Markets. CHELMSFOR There was a fair supply o week's rates.
