Reflections on t • 4 8 ; ir event are useless ; for the glory of France speaks loudly enough.' Siecle expresses itself as follows : kl 1• „ s e fact of the three simultaneous attacks on the zo,; - , - ofr, the Redan of Careening Bay, and the Redan t es k i 14 - t e e t he British army, is explaineo by the circune ilits%z,st these three fortifications mutually support t e ‘ i t t' o - f . , Or i especially the Redan and Malakhoff, and that ) e "tbe ll- 'eas of th e three should, within a short time, 'a 'ate for the check which might possibly be met El'r e a the two others. This calculation has proved i l kii -6 1; a nd fortune, less javourable on that day to the I,`,t °o° ur worth vals, has caused our flag to float ; the defences ri y of Sebastopol, now turned against pq.

The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday closed firmly, and prices of American were ±,d. per lb. dearer than last week. The sales were 10,000 bales, 1,500 for export, and 3,500 on speculation, comprising 8,000 Americans ; 550 Pernam and Maranham, at 6d. to 77d.; 350 Egyptian, 6d. to 72d. ; and 4,000 Surat, 4d. to 51d. per lb. The Rtlilway Share Market was more buoyant at a slight advance. Yesterday afternoon there was an imprcvement in the rates of Exchange for bills upon most of the Continental cities. Paris, 90 days, was taken at 25 42d 1 to 47 z ; Amsterdam, 11 18/ to 181 ; Hamburg, 13 8 to 8i ; and Frankfort, 11.81 to ~,,,1 RAILWAYS. Bedford and Buckghamsh. Clydesdale Jc. Col. Stour Vy.

Bost In adverting yesterday to the pecular condition of the money market and the comparatively trifling influence exercised as yet upon it by the glorious tidings from Sebastopol, we remarked that the small advance in the funds could be no fair measure of the feeling in the City any more than in the coun try at large. There are special circumstances which will serve to explain in part, however, the apparent sluggibliness that prevails. Cash, as is well known, is in more active demand, and this day the instal ment of 20 per cent., representing a million ster ling, has been in course of payment upon Turkish Bonds. A portion may have been paid in advance, but not much, we presume, as no inducement was offered. The Bank lends upon the Scrip at 31 per cent. until October 11, and this, with the fuller em ployment obtained in discounts, has led, it is stated to sales of stock by the corporation, as a better alternative than that of raising the discount charge, for the present at least. What amount the Bank may have sold, or yet intend to put on the market, must be uncertain, but 1,500,0001. has been named. Among the reasons assigned, also, for the tighter state of the money market, is, that the Chancellor of the Exchequer has borrowed from the Bank upon the further issue of bills and bonds which he is authorised to make ; but if we look to the last weekly ba lance sheet of the Bank, we find a good balance to the credit of the Government, and with the in stalment upon the Consols loan, due the 18th inst., there should be no necessity for immediate borrow ing, supposing that the Chancellor has not already disposed of part of his floating securities, as we think very probable. A most important considera tion likewise is the prospect of the war now prov ing less costly. The English Funds this morning have been flat ter, and there have bean further money sales, but whether rightly attributable to the Bank or not is difficult to determine. The quotations of Consols for transfer have been 90 a and 90g- 4, and for October 90 and 90 to 91. Exchequer Bills are 10s. to 145., and India Bonds 235. to 275. premium. ILondon & N. West. L.&N.W.

THIS REGISTRATIONS.—In a f ew d ays the rev i sing bar risters will hold their courts for the revision of the lists of voters in the various counties and boroughs through out the United Kingdom, when the claims of, and ob jections to, each elector will be investigated. With respect to those against whom there are objections, many will not be aware that their title to the franchise will be called in question. It is therefore of importance to all electors that they should examine the list of objec tions, which list, bearing the names of those against whom there are objections, is posted upon the church and chapel doors in every parish. In some boroughs there are associations to watch the interest of the electors, but in those where none are formed, a large number will 10-e their franchise, as in some boroughs and counties there are hundreds of objections. In the parish of St. George, Ilauover-square, alone there are nearly 100 objections. _ . 100 100 100 20 9 ii - 9$ 2+ --, li li - 6 f - 1i - 2p - 38,i 1l -12 t 23- 24 1 4 - • 00. .'"' •41 • 7 - 6i 16i -17 i 64 66 94 - 96 - 6i 5 54 1 par - - ip par in 34 - 4 2i - 24. - 25 100 - 102 115 - 118 118 - 120 1071 108 i, - 20 4 114 - 116 . di.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.) MANSION-HOUSE. GOVERNMENT STORES.— John, Brown, an Irishman, was charged with having a pair of shoes in his posses sion with the Government mark, supposed to have been stoles. The prisoner attempted to pledge the shoes at the shop of a pawnbroker in the Minories, who, perceiving they were nearly new and had the Government mark on them, refused to take them, and gave the prisoner into custody. The prisoner stated he purchased the shoes on Sun day morning in Petticoat-lane for 4s. 63. Mr. Salim Cohen, a Jew, who was in court on other business, stated to Alderman Wire, the presiding alder man, that there had latterly been a large sale of Govern ment stores, the wreck of the Imperatriee, by order of the underwriters at Lloyd's, and amongst them 30,000 pairs of shoes. When the shoes came home and were purchased they were much sadden and mouldy, and they had since been steeped to give them the appearance of soft calf. He had known 10,000 of these shoes sold on a Sunday morning. The price was 4s. 6d. The shoes produced was one of the lot. The witness having given, the alderman some other information, the prisoner was put back. The police were directed to go to Petticoat-lane with the prisoner and make some inquiries relative to the articles. Wm. Booth, jun., broker, shortly afterwards attended, and said he was employed by the underwriters at Lloyd's to sell the stores. The shoes produced were of the same description as those he sold, but had in addition the " broad arrow" on them. 10,000 pair so marked were sold by the Ordnance Board at the Tower. Alderman Wire said the marks should be erased before selling. Mr. Cohen said the usual course was for the Govern ment, under such circumstances, to give the purchaser a protection, which the retailer should also give his cus tomer. Mr. Alderman Wire having remarked on the impro, priety of selling stores so marked, by which means inno cent persons might get into trouble, discharged the prison er. SMUGGLING.—.Tame.9 Vey was charged with having a quantity of spirits in his possession on which the duty had not been paid. Henry Kent, a youth who was taken into custody also on suspicion, having the spirits in his possession, was admitted evidence against the prisoner. He stated that he knew the prisoner ; yesterday about half-past two o'clock the prisoner tapped him on the shoulder as he was walking along Tower-hill, and told him he had "a job for him." He went with him to his residence in Rostern-row, Tower-hill, where the prisoner told him he wanted him to carry the bottle produced, which was in a basket, to the top of the street. Another man was pre sent. Ho did so, and was apprehended by police-con stable 538, near Fenchurch-street, with the bottle on his head ; the prisoner and the other man ran off. Mr. James Gordon, Custom-house officer, proved the bottle contained 31 gallons of foreign Geneva. The Alderman fined him in the penalty of 1001., in forming him ho might apply to the Commissioners of Excise for a mitigation of the penalty. Mr. rates were present. As official assignee he took possession of the money. He asked Mr. Strahan if there ' was a book in which the securities were entered ? Mr. Strahan and Mr. Bates looked at each other; but made no answer. Sir John Paul, he thought, was walking about the house. Some Dutch Bonds came into his possession, but they were docketted, and they had been delivered to the parties to whom they belonged. Mr. Parry- NVas Mr. Bates present in the parlour when the conversation took place Mr. Bell said ho was not sure that be was there at the precise moment the conversation took place between himself end Mr. Strahan. He did not take part in the conversation. Mr. Jardine said it was immaterial. No jury in the world, or any man of common sense, would think that Mr. Bates was not cognisant of the purport of the con versation. Mr. Charles Peppercorn was then called, and added to his previous evidence that the cheques produced for the amount of 8,2331. 133. Bd., dated in Sept., were those given by him. The witness, on being asked for the order, stated that he had no such book. On being shown a certain book, he said the entries in it were in his hand. writing ; he made the entry, which he had just seen, at the banking house of the prisoner. It was an order to purchase for Dr. Griffiths 2,0001. Dutch Bonds ; the numbers of the bonds purchased were, 3,733, 460, 378, 459, 458, 457. This purchase was effected about the 20th January. Subsequently he purchased some more Dutch bonds, among which was one numbered 3,348. On June 29, 1843, he made another order of 30,000 Dutch florins, 21 per cent., and also another purchase of 10,000 Dutch 24 per cents. on the Bth of July, 1843. The writing "The Rev. John Griffith" upon the bought note of this transaction was Mr. Bates'. Mr. Parry—Where did you get that bought note from Dr. Griffith stated that it was seat to him by the bankers in answer to his letter directing them to pur chase some Dutch bonds on his account. Mr. Parry—(handing the document to Mr. Bates) — asked him whether the words were written by him ? Mr. Bates answered in the affirmative. Mr. John Hill, of 3, Bartholomew lane, wa3 then called, and stated that the purchase of certain Dutch Stock was made for Dr. Griffith, to upwards of 5,0001., and duly delivered to the bank of Strahan, Paul, & Co. Mr. Bodkin stated that these were all the witnesses he proposed calling with respect to the purchase of these bonds, and he should now call witnesses to prove the re ceipt of the dividends arising on these bonds by thebank of Strahan, Paul, and Co. James Allen, 22, Cloudesly-square, Islington, for_ merly a clerk in the bank of Strahan, Paul, and Co., stated that up to the end of 1553 it was his duty to cut off the cupons. The list produced was made out by him. It was a list of the cupons cut from the Dutch Bonds, upon which the bank received the dividends due, and among the dividends so received some were credited to Dr. Griffith. The witness then proceeded to explain the \rations entries in the books of the bank with regard to the sums credited to Dr. Griffith. The whole of the entries to which he had referred were not in his hand writing. The entries to which he had referred as not to have been in his hand-writing were made by Mr. Bates's son. Mr. Joseph Simpson Beattie was then called, and stated that he was a clerk in the Temple-bar branch of the Westminster Bank. He had been a clerk in the house of Strahan and Co., and had ,he received some coupons from Mr. Allen, upon which he obtained the dividends. An entry in the pass-book of 1171. 14s. 2d. to the account of Dr. Griffith was made by him. It was dated the Ist of March, and was for six months' dividend of Danish 5 per cent. stock. Mr. Thomas Allen, lately a clerk in the bank of Strahan and Co., but now residing at No. 3, Cook's Cottages, Hampstead, stated that the entry in the day book on the Ist of March was in his handwriting. It was for 1211., received as dividends on Dutch Stock. On that day Dr. Griffith was credited with the sum. Mr. Logan, also formerly a clerk in the service of the prisoners, proved an entry to the credit of Dr. Griffith on the 3d October of 1411. 55., on account of six months' dividend on Dutch stock, was in his handwriting. Mr. Bodkin said, by the evidence he had produced, he had proved that the coupons due on Dr. Griffith's stock had been received by the bank, and by the evidence of Mr. Savory, who had paid the money to the clerks of Strahan and Co., he thought that part of the case was complete, and he should now call Mr. Alex. Beattie. Mr. Beattie stated that he was a director of the Na tional Life Assurance Co., King William-st. He recol lected that Sir J. Paul called upon him in the year 1853, and wanted to raise a loan of 20,0001.; but the society not being able to lend money on foreign stocks, he re commended him to the Stock Exchange. In March, 1854, Sir John called upon him again, and wanted a loan of a similar amount upon foreign securities. There being then some difficulty, Sir John said the stocks might be sold, and the securities were subsequently sold by Messrs. Foster and Braithwaite, and realised the sum of 12,281/. ss. He gave the money he had received to Sir John Paul, as he had engaged to dispose of the bonds for him. Mr. John B. Gibson, formerly a clerk to Messrs. Foster and Braithwaite, had a faint recollection of re ceiving some bonds for sale. The entry in the book of 10,000 three per cent. Danish bonds, and 5,000 five per cent. Dutch bonds as having been sold on the 15th of March, 1554, was in his handwriting. The number of the bonds sold corresponded with those deposited by the rev. gentleman at the bank of Strahan, Paul and Co. Mr. Francis A. Budd, clerk to Foster and Braith waite, produced two cheques paid for Danish stock sold by the firm, and also proved the sale of the bonds. Mr. S. Penfold, a clerk in the house of Rothschild's, stated their house paid the coupons of the 3 per Cent. Danish Loan. The list of coupons of Strahan and Co., paid on the 3d of October, 1853, contained one num bered 795, for 71. 10s., and some others. After having been examined the list was passed on to another clerk, who pail the amount by a cheque for 1451. 15s. 3d. Mr. Bodkin said ho did not intend to trouble the magistrate with any further evidence, and he should therefore ask the magiArate to commit the whole of the prisoners for trial. Mr. Parry, on the part of Mr. Bates, said that there was not the slightest evidence against Mr. Pates, and therefore he submitted that he ought to be discharged from custody. Mr. J:xtline said, he could not acquiesce in the appli cation of Mr. Parry. He should therefore commit the whole of the prisoeen for trial at the nest sessions of the Central Criminal Court. STUPID AFFAIR.—A tradesman in Laurencekirl: has been foolish enough to attempt the hazardous feat of sealing a bottle which he had just filled with spirits of turpentine with wax, in the ordinary way of dropping the wax on from a flame, when, as a matter of course, the turpentine ignited, fired the shop, and led to the de struction of a good deal of property. FIRING AT A RAILWAY TRAIN.—Two medical stu dents from Aberdeen have been examined before the Procurator-Fiscal at Stonehaven for firing at the train on Saturday on the Aberdeen Railway, in the vicinity of Newtonhill station. They declared that the circum stance was purely accidental—that they heard the train coming up, and they ran to the paling at the embank ment to see it, ar.d that, in coming against the paling, the gun, which was on full cock, went off in their hands. THE STEAM-SHIP CITY OF WASHINGTON.—This rnag niticent steamship, built and engined by Messrs. Tod and Macgregor for the Liverpool and Philadelphia Steam Packet Company, is now about completed, and will go down the river on Tuesday. She has been chartered by the French Government to carry troops to the Crimea, and as soon as her compasses are adjusted she will pro ceed direct to Marseilles.—Glasgow Paper. LICHFIELD TRACTARIAN COLLEGE.—It will be seen that the requisition to the chief bailiff to call a meeting of the inhabitants of Hanley and Shelton, to consider the best means of opposing the renewed attempt to establish a Tractarian College at Lichfield has been signed by 220 persons, including the churchwardens of all the churches, many of the:clergy, professional men, and manufacturers, and a large proportion of the tradesmen. The opposi tion appears unanimous and determined. The meeting is officially convened for Tuesday evening next. — Staffordshire Sentinel. TEMPERANCE CONFERENCE.—Yesterday morning the annual temperance conference was held in St. Martin's hall, Long-acre, at which delegates from several of the provincial towns were present, and many of the members of the London Temperance League. Mr. G. W. A stie, n a solicitor at Devizes, presided. The proceedings had reference almost solely to the late and present Sunday Beer Bills, and to the steps to be taken b y the confer ence. to counteract the effects of the existing measure, f not to procure the closing of public - h ouses the entire Sunday, and throughout the whole country.

Police-constable 265 stated that the prisoner, who is a costermonger, was creating a great disturbance, in com pany with two others, last night in Fox and Hart-court, Snow-hill. The women had a lad about 12 years of age between them and were searching his pockets. Witness attempted to move them away, on which the prisoner became very violent, kicking, biting, and scratching him. She was so violent that he bad to procure assistance to bring her to the station-house. The child, be believed, was the prisoner's son, and was in a helpless state of in toxication at the time ; she appeared to be taking what money he bad from him. The lad, who it was stated was in the neighbourhood of the court, was sent for by the alderman, and in answer to questions put to him, said be was given beer by one of the women who was in company with his mother ; be was not "very" drunk. Sir James Duke, after expressing his sorrow to hear of such depravity, sentenced the prisoner to seven days' imprisonment. BOW-STREET. TETE CASE OF STRAHAN t PAUL, AND Co.—This morn ing William, Strahan, Robert Makin Bates, and Sir John Dean Paul, Bart., were placed at the bar before Mr. Jardine for final examination, charged with feloniously disposing of a large quantity of foreign securities, lodged with them for safe keeping as bankers. Mr. Bodkin appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Parry appeared for Mr. Bates. Mr. Bodkin, in opening the case, said there were five witnesses, clerks in different banking houses—named Metcalf, Stafford, Potter, Mitchell, and Franklin—in attendance ; and as their absence from business to-day - would occasion some inconvenience, ho proposed merely to call those gentlemen, and intimate to them that their presence would be required next week. The different sentlemen were then called, and directed to attend, as Mr. Bodkin desired. The witnesses, Dr. Griffith, Wiley, Boyes, Pally, Young, Moore, and Hill were then bound over to ap pear at the next session at the Central Criminal Court. Mr. Burnard, a stockbroker, residing at 69, Lombard street, corrected his deposition, which stated that in 1554 he purchased Dutch stock for the defendants ;—it ought to be that he effected a loan on Dutch stock for the bank on the application of Sir John Paul, to the amount of thirty thousand pounds, upon security of Dutch 21 per Cents. Mr. Bodkin said the state of the case was now so far advanced that to-day he should ask for a committal. The first witness called was Mr. Bell, the official assignee to the fiat, who deposed that on the 16th of June, some days after the fiat, he went to the banking-house, and Mr. Straban informed him that the bonds of Dr. Griffith would not be forthcoming. lie thought the word sold waa used.

Great and glor ious as i s the triumph the Allies have achieved by th e d estruction of the southern side of Sebastopol, a still grander triumph, as it seems, remains. Doubtless we have now gainrd a great victory, but the Russian army still exists. Inoornita,ble and dashing courage has performed its task ; the hour for gene r al s hi p i s at hand. The superior officers in the Crimea hare been taunted with the fact that, except perhaps at the Alma the battles ha ve b een won b y t h e common soldiers. Inkermau has been baptised " the battle of tho soldiers." Now, at least, the com man d ers have an opportunity of retrieving their reputation. Igno rant as we must confess ourselves to be of many circumstances which will probably modify and even embarrass the military plan of operations, still to an on-looker it does appear as if it were impossible to imagine an opportunity more perfect for a di s . play of strategic power. By the victory just won 200,000 hardened soldiers are set free from the harassing work of open trenches, the nightly alarms of sorties and an attack on their flank. Moreover, 1 the Russian fleet being annihilated, the Allied fleets are at the absolute disposal of the Allied com manders, to transport any number of troops to any point they please. The Russians, on the other band, having lost probably not less than 10,000 men, must either hold the heights of Mackenzie, with Simpheropol for theirbase, or must retreat with all speed northward to Perekop, which is the only line now open to them; for it is scarcely necessary t o observe, th a t P r i nc e Gortschakoff will hardly be ab surd enough to coop up his army within the lineson the northern side of the harbour. If the Prince re tires at once f rom t h e M ac k enz i e p l a t eau h e will be observed by the Allies, and they will immediately pursue him up the gorges of the Tchernaya, if only defended by guns, without au army behind them, would o ff erno effectual resistance. The allies, with their overwhelming numbers, and elated with success, will cruelly harass his retreat, and. having driven him headlong into the barren steppe which stretches between Simpheropol and Perekop, will leave him to struggle for life with his famished and thirsty thousands. But if the Prince should delay for some few days, and permit the allies to transport a corps d'arnie"6 of some 50,000 or 100,000 to Eupatoria, with all their cavalry, the Prince and his army must be utterly destroyed. As we observed some few days ago, the great road from Simpheropol northwards is distant from Eupatoria but twenty miles. Plant this corps aParmee across the road, and the Prince must either fight a field battle or make a precipitate retreat, exposed to an attack on his left flank. But in either case the probabilities are he must suffer defeat—and, in such a case as this, defeat is annihilation. It would. be imprudent, and even foolhardy, to enter upon any minute speculation of the future movements of the Allies. A few days, or even a few hours, wiil probably enlighten us. Certainly the situation of the Russian army is most precarious, and in deed such as to inspire a man of genius andstra tegic power. The milit ar y s ituat ion i s simple enough, and in the remarks we have just Made ,we have done little more th an p o i n t ou t th e obvious and necessary consequences which seem to arise out of the relative position of the two armies.— Morning Paper.
