MONEY MARKET AND CITY NEWS. CITY, Two o'CLooK. The accounts from the manufacturing districts are still o f a very unsat i sfactory character, and the in tervention of the Easter holidays has caused a further depression in the home trade. Business at I\l anchest er h as b een exceed i ng l y d u ll , an d b u t little change has been produced by the reduction in the rate of discount. The woollen trade in the est Riding of Y or k s hi re has continued exceed ingly dull, and at Leicester and Nottingham little or no improvement can be reported in the hosiery and lace trades. In flag hardware districts, viz., at Birmingham, Sheffield, Walsall, and Wolver hampton, the stagnation noticed during the last 4 eNv weeks has been by no means diminished. The Ineetings of the ironmasters will commence at Bir nungham on Wednesday next. A large amount of business was transacted in t he Liverpool Cotton Market on Saturday, and prices tended upwards. The sales were fully 20,000 Dales. The Money M ar ket remains in a very quiescent 1 ta te, with a tendency towards increasing ease, con sequent upon the extreme supplies, and the mode le;te character o f th e enq uiries. The payment of the April dividends is now producing some effect, 'ad it is generally expected that lower rates will shortly prevail. A further sum of about 80,000 was sent into t he Bank of England on Saturday. .„ T he Oneida has arrived from the Brazils with £ 24 ,746 in specie.

There has been a heavy market for Public s ecurities to-day owing to the unsettled appear !lee of the continental politics, which have led to continuance of speculative sales.

A " Row" AT THE VATICAN.—It is to be la mented that his holiness cannot make some " especial dis- Position" to regulate the pushing and crushing which attend meet of the holy week's ceremonies, and particularly the washin g . of thirteen priests' feet in St. Peter's, and the subsequent waiting upon them at dinner in one of the Vatican halls by the Pope, in allusion to our Saviour's similar act of humiliation towards the Apostles. Doling this allegorical repast, on Thursday, the crowd of specta tors pressed so compactly round the Court circle and the banquet table that Count Carcani, one of the Pope's came 21er• t eegreti, was pushed violently against the Pope's major d emo, Monsignore Borromvo, to the great damage o f the e oont's frill and ruffles, and to the complete overthrow of t he prelate's equanimity. The count excused himself by Sa ying that he was pushed forward by some French officers, and the major dome soon got to high words with these latter gentlemen, saying, finally, that the palace would go ' 37,1 much bette r if f ree d o f their presence altogether. A veteran French colonel, however, in the group was not to b e but dow n so eas il y. H e sta lk e d forward, and eyeing th e Purple-robed, go ld- c h a i ne d f un ctionary with grim con tempt, apostr o phi ze d hi m w ith th e w ithering epithet of— "lmbecile I D o y ou no t k now t h a t if we were not here you would not be here either ?"—Litter from Anne.

Fine barley realised extreme rates; but other kinds were a dull inquiry. Oats, beans, peas, and flour moved cff slowly. The continental markets have been firm for wheat, on higher terms. Advices from New York state that ship ments of bread-stiffs to England still continued. The arrivals of English produce up to our market, last week. we e limited; but those from abroad were liberal— viz., 35,282 quarters of wheat, 13,320 barley, 86,487 oats' 558 beans, 2,032 peas, 2,203 tares, 10,103 linseed, 7,272 rapeseed, 75 Indian corn, 390 sundry, 8,657 sacks and 700 barrels of flour. The fresh arrivals of English wheat to this morning's market were on a very molerate scale, but we observed a slight improvement in the condition of most samples. Buyers, however, exercised great caution in making pur chases, and most offers were at a reduction of ld to 2d per qr. on the rates current on this day se'nnight, to which holders being disinclined to submit, sales progressed heavily at a decline of about ld per qr. The show of foreign wheat was large, and the demand for all descriptions was in a very inactive state, with a down ward tendency in prices. Floating cargoes of grain were neglected, and the quota tions were with difficulty supported. The barley trade is still devoid of animation. Fine malting qualities realised previous rates ; but all other kinds were is per quarter cheaper. The transactions in malt were of a limited character ; nevertheless, no change took place in its value. Owing to the large arrival, all kinds of oats were in slow request, and prices gave way is per quarter, compared with Monday last. Beans moved off steadily, at full quotations. Although the demand for peas was by no means active, prices were fairly supported. In the inquiry for flour, there was no activity. Prices, however, have not materially altered from last week.

Owing to the long time that has elapsed since the last sittings of the Court, the calendar of prisoners for trial is exceedingly heavy, there being no less than 136 prisoners on the list for trial. Four charges were for assault and robbery, one fraudulent bankruptcy, two bigamy, eight burglary, twenty-six for uttering counterfeit coin, embezzlement twelve, felony one, forgery five, larceny twenty-six, larceny from the person one, larceny as a servant seventeen, manslaughter two, misdemeanour eight, murder two, rape two. Of these cases forty-eight were from London, 47 from Middlesex, 6 from Essex, 15 from Kent, and 19 from Surrey. The Recorder, in charging the grand jury, said the num ber of prisoners for trial was much larger than usual, but that, no doubt, was occasioned by the length of time since the court last sat for the trial of prisoners. The first charge he would refer to was that against Wm. Frederick Knighton, who was indicted for the wilful murder of Vic toria Pugh, who was pulhed one morning into the Surrey Canal. The evidence was to the effect that the voice of a female was heard crying out "Oh, don't 1" and after wards a splash was heard. This left little doubt that the death of the unfortunate woman was caused by violence. The prisoner was connected with the matter by his having been seen quarrelling with the woman at half-past one o'clock in the morning. It was for them to say whether there was sufficient evidence to justify a true bill being returned against the accused. The other charge of wilful murder was against Ann Reid. She was charged with the wilful murder of her child. She went to her lodgings, and being taken ill, something was required from her box. She said she had lost the key, when the chest was broken open, and the body of the child was discovered with its throat cut from ear to ear. The whole of the evidence would be laid before them, and in this case also they would have to say whether or not the pri soner ought to be put upon her trial for the capital offence. The next charge was of a somewhat singular nature; it was that against Sarah Terry, who was indictel for two offences ; the first was that of aiding and :abetting in the committing murder, and the other was that of attempting to murder herself. The prisoner went to a coffee-shop in Bishopsgate-street with her brother, who was a soldier, and then poison was taken by both; the brother died, but the prisoner recovered. She said her brother took the poison, and if this was the case it was very questionable whether she was amenable to one of the charges made against her of aiding in the commission of murder. There was a char ge of man slaughter against a prisoner named George Chapman. He was driving a cart at about 12 miles an hour, and whilst in a state of intoxication he drove his horse up a street in which there was no thoroughfare, and in so doing the death of a man was caused. There was also a case of a nature that had been rather numerous of late, viz., fraudulent bankruptcy. It was an indict ment against Eustace Parry, who was indicted for not surrendering to the fiat in bankruptcy. There was also two charges of rape in the calendar, and he was anxious that they should pay particular attention to these cases, be cause there were no chances of a conviction, public injury was inflicted by the trials taking place in open court. Of course it was very difficult in cases of this nature to procure evidence, but it was always of great importance to notice the conduct of persons who made such a charge. In the first case it appeared that the female, immediately after the offence had been committed, mentioned it to some of her relatives, and the prisoner was given into custody. In the other case the offence was alleged to have been com mitted on a child under 10 years of age, and the assent or non-assent of a child of such tender years was of no avail, as undoubtedly under any circumstances, if the offence had been committed, it was a very serious crime. He did not think he need call their attention to any of the other eases, but if any difficulty arose assistance would most readily be granted them. CHARGE OF OBTAINING MONEY BY FALSE PRETENCES. -uressed man, for merly a captain in the army, was indicted for obtaining from Mr. liackblock the sum of £25,-and also the sum of £6, by false and fraudulent pretences. Mr. Metcalfe and Mr. Poland prosecuted, and Mr. Ser geant Ballantine and Mr. itibton defended. The evidence was to the effect that in January last the defendant, who is a horse broker, arranged with the prose cutor for the sale of a pair of carriage horses, for which he asked and obtained £ 35, and £6 as commission. He re presented that the horses belonged to a gentleman who asked £l5O for them, but he had brought him down to take £135 for them. The horses were war ranted, but one of them turned out restive, and quite unsuited for the purpose it was intended. He wished the horse to be taken back, and he then discovered that the owner of the horses only got £llO for them, and that the defendant had kept £25 for himself. It was, therefore, con tended if the horses were the defendant's own property he had defrauded Mr. Hackblock out of £6 for commission, and if on the other hand he sold only as a broker, he had defrauded him of £25. Evidence having been adduced to prove the charge, The Recorder said it di.l not appear to him that there was any case to go to the jury to prove the false pretences. The presecutor must prove a false statement to an existing fact here. Mr. Hackblock said he was induced to pay the £135, by the prisoner saying that "he was going to pay £135, that was a futute, not an existing, fact. After some discussion, The Recorder said that the prosecution had not proved their case, and the defendant must be discharged. There was another indictment against the defendant, but it was not proceeded with. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. FItA.I.) ON A BANK.—James Miell, a man about 50, residing at 4, East Surrey Grove, Commercial-road, Peck ham, a traveller, was charged with entering an amount of 10s. falsely in a deposit book and presenting it at the Provident Institution Savings' Bank, St. Martin's-place, with intent to defraud the trustees. Mr. George Rowley Barker, one of the clerks at the bank, said : The prisoner's son, James Miell, has an account at the bank, and the deposit book produced repre sents the amounts bo'has paid in. The prisoner paid in 7s. on Saturday, and on comparing the deposit book with the ledger, I found the latter was 10e. short of what the de posit book stated, and on examining the deposit book I found the figure " 1" had been inserted before the figure 4 , 8" (thus making it appear 18s. instead of Bs.) one of the amounts in the shillings' column. I then pointed it out to the secretary. The prisoner pleaded guilty. Mr. Tyrwhitt said that the cashier must be present, and with that view remanded the prisoner, who seemed quite overcome with emotion, for a week, at the same time, on the prisoner's application, offering to take two sureties in £lO each for his reappearance. TIME-GUN AT EDINBURGH CASTLE.—It is ex pected thatbefore the close of the present month the audible time signal at Edinburgh Castle will be brought into daily operation. The time-gun is established in connection with the time-ball on the Calton-hill, which was set up some years ago as a time signal for the benefit of the city of Edinburgh and also for the port of Leith. It was found, however, that frequently the signal was invisible through fog or haze, and Mr. Hewat, a merchant inEdinburgh, some time ago suggested that the signal, which is worked from the Observatory on the Calton-hill, should be connected by means of an electric wire, with a gun on the Castle bat tery, which should be discharged simultaneously with the fall of the time-ball. The suggestion is now being carried into execution. A gun has been granted by Government for the purpose, but otherwise the expense of putting up and maintaining the signal has been undertaken by the citizens, and a subscription has been commenced in order to constitute a fund for the purpose. The apparatus is in course of construction by Messrs. Ritchie, Edinburgh, and one part of it is to consist of a single strand of electric wire suspended from the Calton-hill to the Castle in one stretch of 1,400 yards, and which, being elevated about 100 to 120 feet above the level of Princes •street, will be quite invisible to the eye. The Directory map of Edinburgh and Leith about to be published for 1861-2 will be marked with a series of circles showing the exact time that will elapse be tween the discharge and the sound of the gun reaching any point upon the map. The institution of this ordnance signal in connection with the time .ball at the Calton-hill Obser vatory is looked forward to with great interest, and should the experiment prove successful it will probably lead to its adoption elsewhere. NAVAL FASHIONS.—SteeI corsets are beginning to be wern by frigates, but do not, in the last novelty, come up to bows i n f ron t or d escen d q uite to the other extremity. Tho sides are pierced with holes for the arms, forming a stylish open work.

There was a fair average supply of foreign stock on offer in to-day's market, and the demand for it ruled steady, at quite last week's currency. Notwithstanding that the ar rivals of beasts, fresh up from our own grazing districts, were considerably on the increase, when compared with Monday last, all breeds moved off steadily, and, in some instances, prices were the turn dearer—the general top figure for beef being se. per 81bs. The quality of the stock was good. From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridge shire, we received 2,000 Scots, crosses, &c.; from other parts of England, 600 various breeds; from Scotland, 325 Scots and crosses. On the whole, we were fairly supplied with sheep, the condition of which was by no means first rate. The mutton trade was steady, at prices fully equal to Monday last. The best old Downs, in the wool, sold at 6s. per 81bs. Prime lambs sold readily, at from 7s. Bd. to Bs. per 81bs. The arrivals from the Isle of Wight amounted to 125 head. Calves were in short supply, and good lequest, at extreme currencies. We have to report a fair time- of-year inquiry for pigs, at full quotations. Per Slb. to sink the offal. d. s. d. , s. d. s. d.

The Metropolitan Stakes remain without change. The only animal supported was Danae, and all the 4's to 1 that could be got were taken freely. For the City and Suburban Handicap Physician, First Lord, Thunderbolt, and Gab rielle d'Estrees were very fairly supported at their respec tive prices. East Sheen seemed a little on tie wane, for although 100 to 7 was booked, 100 to 6 was afterwards offered. Pancake commenced the downward process, and was stopped at 25 to 1 (taken), but 20 to 1 was offered with out response. Lady Clare was much inquired after, but we saw nothing less than 25 to 1 booked about her. Meta dor was freely backed at 7 to 1 for the Two Thousand Guineas, and 25 to 1 was taken about him for the Derby. For this latter event Robin Hood, who for a slay or two past, and early to day, had always money at 30 to 1, declined towards the close to 40 to 1 (taken and offered). For the Chester Cup, Killigrew was firm at 20 to 1 (taken), and there was an attempt made to back Schism, but the price asked, 40 to 1, was more than any one seemed disposed to lay.

THE YELVERTON TRIAL.—The Doncaster Chronicle says that Mrs. (Longworth) Yelverton is shortly expected in Hull. A subscription has been opened in that town for the purpose of assisting in defraying the expenses incurred by the recent trial in Dublin. Mrs. Yelverton herself col lected many of the materials that proved of such essential service to her cause on that trial. She was in the habit of spending very many hours in the Hull Subscription Library searching and taking extracts from the various law books. The Dublin Yelvertoa Fund Committee has made arrange ments for the formation of local committees in Cork, Bel fast, Waterford, Limerick, Armagh, and other towns. At a meeting of the committee, on Saturday, orders were made on the treasurers to draw on the fund for expenses of wit nesses summoned to Scotland to give evidence relative to the marriage in that country. REFORM BILL.—A special meeting of the Town Council of Wakefield was held on Friday evening, for the purpose of taking into consideration the propriety of peti tioning in favour of Mr. Baines's Reform Bill. The mayor presided. Councillor Lamb read a petition in favour of the bill, which he proposed for presentation to the House of Commons. Mr. Stonehouse seconded the adoption of the petition, expressing his approval in general terms of the principle of Mr. Baines's Bill, and his perfect concurrence in the able sentiments expressed by Mr. Lamb. After some observations from Councillors Wainwright, Burton, and Rhodes, the petition was adopted without a dissentient voice. The mayor forbore from expressing any opinion upon the subject, and declined to vote either way. CRUELTY AVENGED.—A very painful case has. been submitted to the Court of Assize of La Manche. A physician named Chesnel, of Mortain, married, nine years ago, Mademoiselle Noel, daughter of an advocate of that town, but theywere not able to agree, and frequent quarrels took place between them. Some time since the doctor's character became completely soured by the death of his only child, and he not only quarrelled more than ever with his wife, but ill-treated her on several occasions. She com plained to her parents and to her brother, a young man, and they naturally felt irritation against the husband. On the 31st December Dr. Chesnel was in a very bad humour, and after dinner he drank a quantity of liquor and became, partly intoxicated. lie then took a whip and went up to his wife, who on concluding her dinner had retired tr, her chamber. He ordered his servant to follow him, but rshe de clined. On listening, however, this woman heard the man abuse his wife in gross terms, and afterwards cry to her in a loud voice, "Go home with you ?" The poor woman rushed down stairs, and her husband followed her with his whip. She ian across the garden to her father's, which was near, and on entering the home cried, " Albert, come to me 1" Her brother, who was engaged in writing in his own room, went downstairs, and, seeing his sister bathed in tears, took up two knives which happened to be on the table and proceeded straight to Chesnel's house. The servant, seeing him enter with the knives, tried, " Ah, A rcinsie-ur Albert, take care what you are doing I" but he stalked 'right up to Chesnel. The latter, without saying a word, struck q t ui he ttefdoht. .
