EgIF RONEY MARKET AND WTI' NEWS. CITY, Two O'CLOCK. The inquiry for!discount accommodation exhibits very little variation, the requirements of the mer cantile public affording the market a steady supply of bills, and at present the demand for other pur poses is comparatively small. It is expected that some relief will be created next week by the pay ment of the October dividends. There were no bullion operations of importance at the Bank of England yesterday. The Foreign Exchanges yesterday afternoon exhibited a decline in the rates on Paris, but on Vienna and Trieste the quotations were rather higher. Since Monday last the imports of specie have amounted to about £227,200, and the exports to £277,600. A call off £1 ss. per share, amounting to £90,000 is due on Tuesday next on the Great Northern Rail way £8 5 per cent. preference shares. Notice has been given that several Belgian 3 per per Cent. Bonds, representing 891,000 francs, have been purchased and cancelled. _ An extraordinary general meeting of the North London Railway will take place on the 25th inst. for the purpose of considering, and if deemed expe dient sanctioning, the raising of all or part of the authorised additional capital. In the Liverpool Cotton Market yesterdy con tinued activity prevailed, and prices were firm. The sales were 20,000 bales. The following remarks with regard to the sup plies of Wheat from America, are from Messrs. J. Travers and Son's weekly circular :—lt appears that the shipments of Wheat and Flour from America to the United Kingdom, during the twelve months ending the Ist of September last, were nearly twice as great as in 1847, during the Irish famine. The total in 1847 was only about 2,450,000 quarters, and, on the present occasion, it has been about 4,800,000, In the former year, however, we received about 2,200,000 quarters of Indian Corn, and this year only about 1,500,000. The year be fore last was that of the smallest importation of American Wheat and Flour.• at any time during the past fifteen years (with the exception of 1848), the total having been only 103,000 quarters. The English Stock Market has been very dull to-day, but increased depression has prevailed in consequence of speculative sales, which have led to a further decline of about per cent., Consols having receded to 92?-, s for transfer; and 92,1 4 for the 7th inst. At the last moment, however, there is rather more firmness, the quotations being 921 ; and 921 respectively. The New Threes and the Reduced have declined to 901 H ; India 5 per Cent. Loan to 1 031 f:-; Exchequer Bills, June, remain at 6s. to 9s. prem. ; Bank Stock is firm at 232 233. Business in the Foreign Market has been very much restricted; prices have shown no important - variations. Turkish 6 per Cents. are firm at 801, 81 ; ditto, 1858, 6811; ditto, £lOO Bonds are 701; Venezuelan have declined to 191; Mexican, to 2512 ; Spanish, to 491; but Dutch 2,1- per Cents. are steady at 644. In the Railway Share Market the dealings have been very limited, and a further slight depression has taken place in values. South-Easterns have receded 55.; Eastern Counties, Lancashire and Yorkshire, and Midland, 10s. ; and Caledonian, £l. For the Foreign and Colonial undertakings there was only a moderate inquiry. Bahia and San Francisco brought 121 ; Eastern of France, 241 ; San Paulo, 51 ; Great Indian Peninsula de clined to 982 ; Grand Trunk of Canada realised 191 ; and Great Western of Canada, 91 t. Joint-Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares were in moderate request. Oriental Bank declined about ss. ; Bank of Egypt ss. ; and London and Westminster improved 10s. Oriental Inland Steam advanced 10s. ; and Canada Land, and South Aus tralian Land realised previous prices. BRITISH FUNDS—CLOSING PRICES Bmk Stock 3 per Cent. Reduced Annuities 9oi a 3 per Cent.

BOW-STREET. ROBBERY BY A SERVANT.—Elizabeth Lock, a domestic servant, was charged with robbing her master. Mr. Newton, of 37, Gower-street, said—The prisoner was in my service, and had been so for some time. On Thursday evening, after I had retired to bed, I was awoke by heaing noises in the house, which induced me to get up and go down stairs. I called the prisoner and asked her if she had heard any thing, when she supposed it must have been her that had caused the noise as she was going to bed. I told her to open the pantry door, as I felt convinced some person was in the house. She did so, and there I found a young man, a follower of the prisoner's. 1 told him to leave my house, and next morning I told her she could no longer remain in my service. I had some suspicion of the pri soner's honesty, and previous to her quitting the premises I looked over the contents of a carpet bag belonging to her, and found therein three sheets belonging to a relative of mine. I then examined her box and found a piece of drill, which I positively identify as my property, together with several other articles. I called a policeman and gave her into custody. 101 1001 1001 19* Mrs. Newton said the prisoner previous to my marriage lived with my mother as servant. She afterwards entered my service, and in a very short time I began to lose a quantity of wearing apparel. I told her of the less, and she helped me to search the house to find the missing articles, but without success. Prisoner said the only stranger who came to the place was the washerwoman, and that she must have taken the things, but as I thought her a respec table woman I did not believe the suspicions of the prisoner. I continued to lose several articles of wearing apparel, and when the prisoner's box was searched I found some pillow cases, pocket handkerchiefs, knives and forks, and a variety of other articles, all of which I identify as my property. I never gave them to the prisoner. 971 61 i 0 Prisoner—The sheets were left in my charge by the per son to whom they belonged.

Police-constable Lambert said—When I took the pri soner into custody she said the contents of the bag belonged to her husband, which I find is untrue.

Mr. Clement Davidson Leggett said—l am stopping at the Exeter Hall Hotel, and this morning the prisoner sent his name up to me as a Mr. Thomas. As I was expecting a gentleman of that name who is a magistrate in one of the presidencies of India, I told the waiter to show the gentle man into the drawing-room. When I entered he shook me by the hand, but I discovered it was not the gentleman I expected, and I then told the prisoner he must be making some mistake. He said he would soon show me he was not, and then entered into a lengthened conversation relative to the indigo trade and the state of India, and finally said he was about to start a school for the education of the children of officers of the Indian army, and asked for some pecuniary assistance. I said I was connected officially with several large schools in the Western Presidency, and also that I was on the Bombay Committee of the Society for the Promotion of Christian Knowledge, and that owing to my official capacity, I could not countenance private schools in India. He got up to leave the room, when I told him he was an impostor, that I knew he had obtained moneyunder exactly the same representations from a general officer, a friend of mine, and also from my brother. He did not deny the charge, but looked at me in great astonish ment. I then gave him into custody. 18.8. all all all all all 81 8 Si 194 206 88 39 9 10 90 41 52 51 4 3d 61 6 8} 8i t I 24i 25i 7 7i 9 _!oi 20 - 21 SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. CALEDONIAN HUNT-FRIDAY.

The following are the prophesies of the various sporting ournals BEACON, of 86//'s Life, gives five horses, viz., Schism, Makeless filly, Tattler, La Vapour, and Paste, but he awards the preference to SCHISM. NEMO, of the Advertiser, is not so modest as " Beacon," as ho selects almost half of the field to furnish the winner, viz., Schism, Mouravieff, Ivanhoff, Petra, Henham Lass, Flirtation, Rapparee, Voltella, Paste, The Rock, Calpe, and La Vapour. He still further reduces them by selecting Schism, Ivanhoff, Henham Lass, Voltella, Paste, and La Vapeur to form the second division. His final selection, subject to inserting the horse that may be first favourite on Monday or Tuesday, is Schism, Voltella, and La Vapeur. AUGUR, of the Sporting Life, only takes six horses to beat the field—namely, A steroid, La Vapeur, Bally Ed mond, Paste, Schism, and Ivanhoff; but says ho will stand on his first loves, Asteroid and La Vapour, believing that Ivanhoff alone can overthrow this pair. POETICAL PETER, of the Sporting Life, has been dream ing that Schism, Paste, and Rapparee were the first three. THE SPHINX, of the Sunday limes, says he does not like LaVapeur or the Makeless filly, but that he does Ivan hoff, Asteroid, and Schism. Another writer in the same journal, under the signature of " Sir Rowley Mile," goes for Schism ; but says that Mouravieff, if rain should set in, will run exceedingly well. OBSERVER, of the Field, says, in his opinion, the race will rest between Asteroid, Schism, Paste, and Ivanhoff; and, as a cockboat, Calpe will be the most useful. BREVITY, of the Weekly Times, goes for the Makeless filly and Schism ; failing these one of the two Russians may do the trick—Mouravieff or Ivanhoff; and, as an out sider, Bally Edmond. TOUCHSTONE, of the Era, the only prophet in London who gave Diophantus for the Two Thousand Guineas, places them in the following order—La Vapeur, 1; Ivan hoff, 2; Calpe, 3 ; and the Makeless filly for a cockboat. ARGUS, of the Horning Post, does not give his prophecy till Monday ; but as Schism is to be William Day's horse, he will, as a matter of course, follow suit. As many changes will take place in the betting at Tat tersall's this evening, I will defer my remarks on the Cesarewitch till Monday ; but think, at present, that either Schism or Rapparee will furnish the winner.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET. ASSAULT BY A PUGILIST. — John Green, a man of colour, and described as a pugilist, was charged with assaulting police constable Eyre, 71 C. Eyre said he was in plain clothes at an early hour in the morning with a gentleman, and the gentleman happening to touch in passing the prisoner, the gentleman turned round to speak to the prisoner, when he told him to come away, and because he did so the prisoner knocked him down. John Hill, of 49, Tufton-street, Westminster, denied the constable's statement. A gentleman wearing a poncho touched the prisoner, and then turned round to apologize, when the constable, whom he should have thought would have known better than to irritate a person, said, "Don't take any notice of that Clack." He did not see the pri soner knock the complainant down. Mr. Tyrwhitt, considering the ease proved, fined the pri soner, who is said to be a very inoffensive man, 405., or two months in default. THAMES. EXTRAORDINARY CASE OF CUTTING AND WOUNDING. —Robert Jones, a man of respectable appearance and ad dress, whose occupation waslnot stated, but who is believed to be a house owner, was brought up on remand before Mr. Woolrych charged with cutting and wounding David Rogers. The prosecutor, an elderly man, whose face was much disfigured, there being a wound under each eye, a wound on each lip, and his cheeks contused, was in Stone's public house, Rosemary-lane, on Saturday night last, when the prisoner entered and demanded ss. of him which was for rent, and before he could pay him the prisoner stabbed him with a knife under each eye, and also cut his lips. His sight, which had hitherto been good, was much impaired by the wounds, and he lost a good deal of blood. In cross-examination by Mr. Charles Young for the prisoner, the witness said that he was an ordnance labourer, em ployed in the Tower, and that he was the worse for liquor on Saturday night. Mary Rogers, wife of the last witness, said the prisoner first struck her and then stabbed her husband under the eyes with a knife. She then threw a glass at the prisoner. Elizabeth Newton, a married daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Rogers, gave similar evidence, and added, that before her father was stabbed the prisoner seized him by the collar. Francis Kelly, a police constable, No. 130 H, said he was called to the public-house on Saturday night, and saw the prosecutor bleeding profusely from the wounds under his eyes and his lips. He took the prisoner into custody, and he said Rogers first attacked him, and he struck him twice on the face with his fist. Mr. Richard z..tone, a publican, said that he heard the prisoner ask Rogers for ss. rent owing to him. He after wards saw the old man's face bleeding. He saw no knife in the prisoner's hand. Mr. W. B. Woodman, surgeon, said when he was called upon to attend the prosecutor there was a wound under each eye, and the right eye was completely closed up. Very sharp knuckles, cr a ring on a man's finger, might have inflicted the wounds. The wounds on the lips were superficial. Mr. Charles Young denied that any instrument what ever had been used. The injuries were inflictedin a scuffle. The prisoner was a respectable kind-hearted man, and Mr. Gammon, coal merchant, of Ratcliff, was in attendance to speak on his behalf. Mr. Woolrych said he should commit the prisoner for trial, and ordered him to be brought up again on Wednes day next for the completion of the depositions. SCANDALOUS It OBBERY OP A SAILOR.—An old and re pulsive looking woman, named Margaret Smith, was brought before Mr. Woolryoh, charged with being con cerned in robbing John Humphreys, the mate of the ship Hants, of Whitby. The sailor was inveighled into a most infamous house, No. 9, Back-road, St. George-in-the-East, where he was stripped of his watch, money, and clothes. All that was left upon him was his shirt and trousers. He lost 18s.'in money, a monkey-jacket worth £2 75., alsilk handkerchief he had recently purchased, his watch—which he valued at £5 12s.—his pocketbook, three letters, and a variety of other property. He said he was cleaned out. Mr. Woolrych—What makes you charge that old woman ? Humphreys She slept in the next room to me. She turned to and took my monkey-jacket out of the room. Mr. Cunningham, assistant to Mr. Byes, pawnbroker, of Ratcliff-Highway, said that the prisoner offered the silver watch now produced in pawn yesterday (Friday) afternoon, and asked 30s. upon it. He questioned her, and her answers being very unsatisfactory he detained her. Humphreys identified the watch. Mr. Woolrych said the conduct of the witness Cunning ham was highly creditable to him, and he did wish all pawn brokers would act in a similar manner. Edwin Child, No. 216, High-street, Shadwell, produced the sailor's monkey-jacket, pawned by the prisoner on Fri day morning for 12s. George Barber and Hugh Andrews, police-constables of the H division, said they had recovered nearly the whole of the sailor's property. The prisoner was a very cunning woman, and was in the habit of going about with basket women who, under pretence of selling oranges and apples, robbed sailors. Mr. Woolrych said that sailors were continually robbed in the horrible dens in St. George's, Shadwell, Stepney, and `Yapping. This was a very bad case indeed. He re manded the prisoner, and directed the sailor to attend again on Tuesday. Humphreys—l can't, sir. going down the river. Mr. Woolrych—Then I shall remand the prisoner until Monday. I must join my ship, she is The King of Holland will not be the last distin guishel guest at Compiegne. The Grand Duke and Duchess Constantine of Russia are to follow. They have been invited before, and now another invitation has been sent to the Isle of Wight, where they are staying at present, BETTING AT MANCHESTER, FRIDAY. It is impossible to convey a correct idea of the business absolutely done. The ebbs and flows in the betting are as exciting as the performance of the animals in a race. As an instance, 20 to 1 was offered against Bally Edmund, which meeting with no response, the offers were increased, until 200 to 5 was offered ; in the course of a few minutes 20 to 1 was taken freely, and he finished at 100 to 6 (taken).

Their object in offering their services to the Washington Govern ment is sufficiently obvious. They are naturally anxious to obtain some sort of military reputation, if it is merely the credit of having been under fire, so that if the turn of the wheel of fortune should at any time afford the Orleans branch an opportunity of asserting their claims to the French Throne, their representative will not labour under the imputation of being &pain. THE POTATO CROP.—A mercantile man has just arrived from the west of Ireland, where he has a large vested interest, and report s the almost total failure of the potato crop in Roscommon and adjacent districts. The cereals are promising, and such as have been reaped will nearly compensate the landholders for what might other wise be a fearful loss to them, and consequently entail much misery and privation. RIBBON OUTRAGE.—The fell spirit of Ribbonism has again began to manifest its influence in the county Meath. On Sunday night the house of a man named "Jack the Slave," who resides near Athboy, was attacked by an armed party, who fired in through the doors and windows, completely destroying them, and would have murdered the man if it had not providentially happened that a party of constabulary came up at the time. We are glad to be able to add that nearly the whole gang have been captured owing to the activity of the cai stabulary. ACCIDENT ON THE RlVER.—Yesterday afternoon, at four o'clock, a barge, deeply laden with paving stones, was proceeding up the river, and when nearly opposite Blackwall Pier the surf arising from the progress of the City of London steam vessel caused her to fill rapidly with water, and she went down head foremost, the crew having barely time to escape by jumping on to some small boats which were fortunately near.

A correspondent of a contemporary says—lt may. perhaps, interest some whether they stand a chance or nit of tallin4 into the hands of wreckers, to leari, what they may expect if they should have to tr 3 the el: eriment on. the coast of Cornwall. No heavier surf rolls upon Great Britain, nor i: there a more inhospitable shore than that from Hartland westwards. The day before yesterday 1 was standing at sunset on the breakwater of Mule. The waves were dashing heavily on the rocks. A noble lifeboat had just been successfully exercis ing her powers against the upright walls of water. The crowd that had watched her were dispersing, when a small schooner and a sloop in the offing showed signs of approach. The danger signal was hoisted. The wind off shore made entrance in such a sea impossible. "By Heaven," said the harbour master, " the sloop is coming in. In an hour Captain Brown will be drowned." Inside the breakers lay the " Hob bler's" boat, unable to approach. It creeps the sloop till her sails shake in the wind. She drives now slowly to the northwards. The sun is down. We just see her , rise on the surf, then heel over, then fall on her broadside under the opposite cliff. Roller after roller tumbles in heavily; now she rises and then dashes down into the foam. We, who have watched with pride the lifeboat, felt a sore aching, as we saw the little 60-ton sloop doomed. The two sturdy fellows who for an honest but painful livelihood unceasingly navigate these rude seas in their ricketty craft seem to deserve ano ther fate. The lifeboat cannot approach the reef. " A rocket might save them !" It is a mile round the bay to the opposite cliff Away run the crowd. Hoyle, chief boatman of preventives, is not yet out of the lifeboat, of which he is captain. He jumps ashore. A cart is soon at the station-house ; the rockets and their apparatus are put in ' • the crowd follow as you of L on d on m i g h t follow afire engine. We reached the cliff. It is now dark. From the surf, in the recoil of the wave beneath the cliff, Isere some 70 feet high, Brown cheerily answers, " Ay, ay ;" and is then submerged under the next breaker. Will she hold an hour as she crunches against the rocks ? We lie down or strain over the ricketty edge. " Keep back," say the knowing ones, " lest the cliff give way." Away flies the rocket, lighting up the caldron below. The captain and his mates are clinging to the masthead. " Have yeu the line ?" is shouted. Cheerily but yet more faint, " Ay, ay" reaches our straining ears. The block is fixed. The hawser is hauled out; a few more anxious moments and Hoyle and his chief mate Daingher cry again, " Stand back," and Brown is lifted over the cliff. We feel, for we can not see, the dripping, battered, cheery little fellow, who, after shaking like an old Newfoundland, rushes to the cliff edge, to help in hauling up his mate," Joe of Clovelly." The excited crowd gives half-choking hurrahs, and retires inland. Scarce one hour from the ill fated entry of the sloop has completed all. In the morning, at daylight, most of us return to see washing away by the incoming tide the shivered timbers of the luckless sloop. Brown, the industrious and ruined seaman, is there too, and takes a last look at all his hard-earned savings ; his life only spared, he must begin all again. THIS DAY'S MARKETS. COVENT GARDEN.

(From the Wiltshire Independent.) The letter of Mr. Darby Griffith, which will he found below, shows the sort of liberty which is en joyed in Hungary at a time when the Austrian Government is boasting of the constitution it has granted, and of the happy condition in which it has placed its subjects. Shame that it is so, and greater shame that Englishmen should he found ready to. palliate such conduct. Were the hon. member for Sheffield to take up the cause of Captain Ca'raliero, or at any rate to inquire into it, perhaps his eyes might be opened to the still continued perfidy of the Austrian Government, and to its base injustice to those under its control. Possibly, too, he might cause justice to be done to a British subject, for surely Austria would listen to one who has 1 .1.- - en so hearty a friend and apologist. But whatever the member for Sheffield might do, the member for Devizes has done good service in bringing so hard a case before the public, and the Foreign Minister would do well to mske it the subject of inquiry of the Austrian Government : "TO THE EDITOR OF THE WILTSHIRE INDEPENDENT. " Pesth, Sept. 25, 1861. " Dear Sir,—lt may perhaps interest your readers to have a genuine specimen of Austrian govern ment operation, just as it has come under my own personal observation at Vienna and at this place, fresh from the Mint, as I may say, and with the true stamp of arbitrary and irresponsible govern ment fresh upon it. " Captain Cavaliero, a British subject, born in London of a naturalised British father, having en tirely preserved his nationality, and bearing n British passport, has been in command of some of the best vessels of the Danube Steam Navigation Company for the last six years, from Vienna to Orsova. No a semblance of complaint as to the discharge of his professional duties has ever been or is now alleged against him. Nevertheless, he has, within these two days, received notice to quit their service im mediately from his company, and when ho naturally asks for the reason of such a proceeding, he receives no explanation in any avowed and ostensible way, but it is whispered to him in private by the officials, that the Government have expressed a wish that he should no longer be employed in Hungarian waters, and the company comply with the wish of the Government. " Captain Cavaliero is married, and resides at Pesth, and therefore his arbitrary removal for no even alleged fault is an act of great injury and op pression to him. Bat the case extends further in its consequences than this primary statement alone expresses. Captain Cavaliero is well known on the Danube as a good, efficient captain, and other pro prietors of steamboats on the river would be ready and glad to offer him a command, who would pro bably be less obsequious towards the Government than the company above mentioned. Well then, in case, when he is discharged by the former company, he should take service with another, is the Govern ment going to repeat this paltry persecution—to prevent an able and honest man from earning his . bread ; and in case of the second company not yield ing to dictation, is Captain Cavaliero going to be arrested by gendarmes on board of his steamer, and sent out of the country, in guise of a criminal, for such a reason ? I apprehend the Austrian Govern ment would think twice before they resorted to such an extreme step towards an innocent man ; but in that case, what must be thought of the pal try meanness of a Government which, Willing to wound, But yet afraid to strike,' makes a eat's paw of a subservient company, and gets them to no for it the dirty work it is ashamed to effect avowedly in its own person ? I should add. that there is no pretence for saying, and it is not; pretended, that Captain Cavaliero has ever taken. any part in political matters. Some time ago the captains were called on to sign an engagement that they would have nothing to do with that subject, and would never enter into any political conversa tion with passengers. This engagement, I need not say, he has honourably kept, and it is not even alleged that he has infringed it. No, sir ; the offence of Captain Cavaliero is of a more indelible, although of an involun tary nature. It simply is, that he is an English man. No doubt the mere presence of an English man in a despotic country is an unconscious rally ing point to all the aspirations for national freedom existing in any part of the world, and it is this congenital original sin which Captain Cavaliero is now expiating by all this injustice and injury. And this is the government which is now enacting the part before Europe of a formal adoption of the forms of a constitutional government in the esta blishment of a Reichsrath, the sitting of which I attended two days ago in Vienna, in all its appa rent order and respectability ; and you wonder that the Hungarians are not ready to put implicit faith in the constitutional promises of a Government the most ordinary principles of which, and pri marily the liberty of the subject, they see daily ,violated before their eyes. " I wish to add that Captain Cavaliero knows nothing of, and is therefore not responsible for, the contents of this letter; but as the recess deprives me of the opportunity of making this statement in Parliament, I trust you will excuse my resorting to your columns in the statement of a c ase a ff ec ti ng a British subject, involving so much meanness, injus tice, and oppression. —I am, sir, your obedient ser vant, " C. DARBY GRIFFITH." WILLS AND BEQUESTS. (From the illustrated London News.)
