3101STEY NARK ET AND CITY NEW 'S'. CITY, Two o'CLocK. Although the demand for money may be ex pected to increase, in consequence of the prepara tions for the payments due at the end of the month, and half-year, the discount market continues quiet, 8 ' and there is no alteration to report in the rates charged for accommodation. Six per cent. is the 8 nominal quotation for the best bills, bat business is nevertheless negotiated at 51 per cent., and there is an ample supply of money for commercial purposes. A further sum of £5,000, in gold, was taken into the Bank yesterday. The Shannon has been announced from the West ; Indies, with £534,200 in specie. A large amount of business was transacted in the Liv er p oo l C o tt on M ar k e t y es terday, and 12,00 0 6 bales were sold, 4,000 of which were on speculation st and for export, at very firm prices. A meeting was held yesterday of the creditors of st Mr. J. H. Cohn, East India merchant, when it was f g resolved to accept a sum of £22,000 in three instal- st, roents, extending over throe months, in satisfaction st of claims amounting to £60,000. st st A meeting of the Canada Company took place st to-day, Mr. C. Franks in the chair. A dividend st Was proposed and agreed to of £4 10s. a share, free et of income tax. et, There was a meeting to-day of the London and stock Provincial Marine Insurance Company, when the 25 proposed payment of interest at the rate of 5 per s toc 2s , cent. was agreed to, the surplus on the under- 1° writing account being £39,320. 1 The official returns relating to Trade and Navi- B ,3 t ` gation for the five months ended the 31st May, St 1861, have just been published. From these it appears that the total declared value of exports from the United Kingdom during that period was £49,780,532 against £52,783,535 in the like period of 1860, being a decrease of £3,003,003. The 81 principal decrease has been in beer and ale, cotton s t; manufactures, cotton yarn, earthenware, hardware and cutlery, linen manufactures, woollen manufac tures, and woollen and worsted yarn. The im et, ports during the same period have been large st t 4 as regards hides, leather manufactures, potatoes, provisions, rice, silk manufactures, tallow, corn, 19 . flour, unrefined, sugar, tea, and tobacco, but st , smaller in raw cotton, spices, sheep and lamb's Wool, cocoa, coffee and wine. 'The shipping accounts ,t exhibit an increase in the amount of ton- st nage employed in the foreign trade for : f t both the entries inwards and clearances out- 81 'Wards, but in the coasting trade during the same period no material alteration is apparent in either the number of ships or the tonnage employed 81 either inwards or outwards. The market for Public Securities continues firm, P A at the improvement of 1 1- per cent. recorded yester- :t t : clay afternoon, Consols being 891 f•- T for money, and 89 1 t for the account. Business, however, is very quiet. The New Threes and the Reduced An- 12 tuities have been in moderate request, at steady rates, viz., Mt I. Bask Stock realised 230; the sl 6 per . Cent. India Loan, 981 ; and the 51 per Cent. Enfaced Paper, 1004 ; India Bonds were steady, at 10s. discount, and the March Exchequer Bills si Were quoted 10s. discount. In the Foreign Stock Market business has con tinued dull, but prices have shown more firmness. Grenada Active Bonds brought 151 ; Piedmontese 5 per Cents,, 734 ; and Dutch 4 per Cent. Certifi cates, 991. Turkish Bonds were moderately active at 72 ; for the old 6 per Cents. 56 for the Loan of 1858, and the £lOO Bonds of the latter advanced to 591. The last week's railway receipts, ascertained up to this day, are in round figures as under : 1861. 1860.

Two fresh charges were brought against him, differing mainly from the one already heard in the circumstance, that in the latter no fire at all had occurred, whilst in the present cases fire had occurred. In the one case a fire happened, on the Ist April, at the house of Mr. Hermann Dessaeur, who was insured for £l,OOO. Mr. Dessaeur estimated his loss at £l2 ss. ; but the prisoner represented to the insurance office that the claim was £363 Bs. Gd., and received a Lill for that amount. The second case was that of a fire which occurred at the house of Mrs. Mary Yates, Oldham-road, who was insured for £ 1 ,700. On the 13th January a fire occurred at Mrs. lates's, the damage done being about £l7. The prisoner, returned to the office a claim of £423 108. 6d., and that sum " w as Paid. In the former of these cases Mr. Hodson, the valuer, was represented as having charged £ 7 Ils.

BRAIDWOOD.—The melancholy death of Mr. Braidwood has created great sympathy in Edinburgh, of which city he was a native, and where he first distinguished himself in the management of fires. Mr. Braidwood was the son of a respectable tradesman in the Scotch capital, and was born there about the year 1800. In 1824 he joined the police establishment there, and under took the organization of a regular tire brigade. Before his plans were far advanced, and before he had either his force or his engines in working order, occurred the great confla gration of 1824, the most memorable and extensive fire in the annals of Edinburgh, and in which a great part of the High .street, including the steeple of the Tron. Church, was means of extinguishing burnt down. At this fire Mr. Braidwood fi rst exhibited those qualitieS of cool dete rmination, g re at daring, and skilful management which published he has so often p u t to good pur poseu metropolis.sesslid A pamphlet w hi c h h e fires first gave him more than l ocal celebrit y , and led to his rem oval to London. Many stories ar e still told of the in trepidity and presence of mind he displayed during the eight years he was fire-master at Edinburgh. On one oc casion he carried first one barrel of gunpowder, and then another, through the midst of a fire from a cellar through an ironmonger's shop, thus preventing, at the utmost per sonal risk, an explosion which might have caused great destruction of life and property. On another occasion, above 30 years ago, he narrowly escaped the sad fate which ultimately befell him, being struck by some of the frag ments of a falling roof, in consequence of which he was so much injured that he had to be removed from the scene. Mr. Braidwood may be said to have left to his native city the legacy of a well appointed and well organized brigade, his plans having been fully matured before he left, and since that time well carried out. RAILWAY COMMITTEES.—The bills of the Birken- head Railway, for leasing the line to the LondOtia;dlsTo;h Western and Great Western, with facility clauses, to other railways, and that of the Oswestry, Ellesmere, and Whit church Railway, for a railway between those places, have been passed in the House of Lords. In the Commons the bill of the North Somerset was passed, and that of the North Eastern and Newcastle and Carlisle Amalgamation has been withdrawn. The case of the South Wales Rail way, for increasing their capital and making arrangements with the Great Western Railway, is proceeding. The bills of the Cockermouth, Keswick, and Penrith, Dublin and Antrim, Midland (Otley Extension), and North Eastern' have been passed in Lord Redesdale's committee, and those of the Great North of Scotland Railway, Caledonian (Rutherglen and Coatbridge lines), Blanc) Valley Railway and Metropolitan Extension (Finsbury-circus), in the corn ' mittee of the Chairman of Waya and Means, !Business done Paid.

This morning Johann Karl Franz, a German, who is suspected of being one of the murderers of Mrs. Halliday, was placed at the bar before Mr. Alderman Humphrey, charged with being in a house with intent to commit a felony. . . Mr. Superintendent Coward, of the Surrey constabulary, in whose district the crime was committed, stated that he had reason to suspect that the prisoner was one of the parties the police had been in search for. He then recapitulated the facts, which will be found in another part of our paper, and applied for the custody of the prisoner so that he might be taken before the magistrates, in whose district the crime was committed. It was arranged that the prisoner should be remanded until to-morrow for the production of the wit nesses who could speak to his identity as being one of the persons seen in the vicinity of the murder on the day in question. • LAW INTELLIGENCE—(7Ics Day). BOLLS COURT. (Before the Master of the Ras.) JUDGMENT.--VYVYAN V. VYVYAN. His Honour the Master of the Rolls said the question raised in this case is whether the daughter of the deceased W. C. Vyvyan or the defendant Mrs. Little is entitled to the sum of £2,000, one half of a rent charge of £4,000 created on the estate of the plaintiff by W. C. Vyvyan in 1809. His Honour, on considering the terms of the seve ral deeds creating the rent charge, decided in favour of Miss Vyvyan for £2,000, with costs, to be paid by the defendant Mrs. Little, and ordered the deeds in question to be de livered up to the plaintiff. JUDGMENT-WARBRICK V. VALLEY. His Honour the Master of the Rolls said—There are two or three questions raised in this case, but in substance there is but one for me to judge of and determine. By consent the parties have agreed to confine the costs to a certain sum, and therefore I shall sanction that arrangement. The other question is whether a specific legacy is given free of legacy duty. lam of opinion that it is. His Honour de clared the legacy duty payable out of the residue of the testator's estate. The other question for his consideration was an important question arising under a clause in the testator's will which declared his nephews and nieces obnoxious, and not entitled to any benefit under his will, if any of them commenced or car ried on any action or suit against him or his trustees in respect to the provisions given to them by his will. His Honour was of opinion that this clause was inoperative, as the suits instituted were commenced before the decease of the testator, and only carried on after his death, and declared that the nephew was not cut off from, but was entitled to, the bequests in this will. His Honour considered the nephew or his representatives were entitled to the legacies contained in the will, and decreed accord - ingly, with costs. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner Holroyd.) THE GREAT LEATHER PAILURE - IMPORTANT APPLICA TION-IN ItE SI:IRAEDER. An application was made on behalf of this bankrupt, a member of the firm of Lawrence, Mortimore, Streitfield, and Shraeder, whose case created such a sensation in the mercantile world, to be discharged from custody, he having been confined three months in accordance with the pro visions of the certificate order. Mr. C. E. Lewis made a formal application, and stated that he had given notice to all parties concerned, and un derstood there was no opposition to the discharge of the bankrupt. Mr. Murray (for the assignees) said he did not know what there was to stop the bankrupt from walking out of prison. (Laughter.) The bankrupt had suffered in ac cordance with the provisions of the certificate order, and he (Mr. Murray) could not oppose the application. His Honour at once granted the application, and the bankrupt was ordered to be discharged. SHERIFFS' COURT. (Before Mr. Sergeant Wheeler.) IMPORTANT CASE OP A HUSBAND'S NON-LIABILITY.- A MODEL HUSBAND ENLARGING HIS WIFE'S CRIS° LINE.-PRICE V. THOMPSON. This was an action to recover balance of an account for drapery sold and delivered, defendant being a clerk in the Bank of England. Mr. Buchanan, for the plaintiff, called Mrs. Price, who went oeriatina through the items of a most voluminous bill, and hislionour, in looking down the items, came to " eight yards of steel." His Honour—Eight yards of steel I What could defend ant require with that ? (Laughter.) Mrs. Price—Well, Mr. Thompson thought his wife's skirt was not full enough, and so he ordered the steel. His Honour thought such an addition made it a warlike skirt. (Laughter.) It appeared that the sum claimed was £l7 odd, balance of an account for £25, defendant having paid £lO odd into court, and pleading never indebted as to the remainder. Defendant had given Mrs. Price an order for goods re • quired for the house, but the sum in dispute was for wearing apparel, and it was admitted that defendant had cautioned Mrs. Price twelvemonths previously against giving credit to Mrs. Thompson. Mr. Taylor, for defendant, suggested that Mrs. Thomp son was not very temperate, and contended that after such a caution plaintiff had no right to exceed the limits of the order given. - His Honour was of opinion that plaintiff had been Limited, and found for defendant. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. —(This Day.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. A STRANGE CASE.—Mary Martin, a stout female, was charged before Mr. Woolrych as follows : Henry Martin, the defendant's husband, a fishmonger, said yesterday my wife, having first threatened to rip me up and to be the death of me before night, sat down to tea. She then began singing very wildly. I told her not to kick up such a row, and she then threw all the flower-pots off the window ledge, and then flung herself out of the window across the ledge. I instantly rushed to the window and succeeded in grasping her hands, all the rest of the body swinging out of the window ; and had I not been a power ful man I must have let her go, and she would most proba bly have been killed, as she is a very stout woman. Sho has been at Hanwell once. Mr. Woolrych—How did she get that bruise on her arm ? The defendant had a large discolouration on her arm. Defendant—You (to the husband) gave it me. Husband—No, I did not ; you were in the hands of the police on Monday nigh, My wife is always like this in her confinements. Mr. Woolrych—Was she drunk? Husband—l think not. Wife—l was confined three years ago. Husband—She seriously threatened me. Mr. Woolrych (to the husband)—Take her home, and take care of her. The charge, which is that of being drunk and threatening her husband, has not been made out. You are discharged. BIBURY CLUB RACES.-STOCKBRIDGE.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS.-(THIS EVENING.) The new LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the wool sack at 4 o'clock, and on the occasion received the congra tulations of several of the peers present. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The London and North Western Railway Bill (Liverpool line) was read a third time and passed. CHURCH BUILDING ACTS AMENDMENT BILL. The Bishop of CHICHESTER withdrew the further consideration of this bill for the present, but he hoped to be in a position very shortly to introduce another measure, and one which was not open to the objections of the bill standing for a second reading that evening. Lord PORTMAN concurred in the propriety of with drawing the bill. PORTPATRICK HARBOUR BILL. This bill, the object of which was to give the Admiralty power to close the harbour during the progress of certain railway works, was read a second time, on the motion of the Duke of SOMERSET. CORK INFIRMARY BILL. This bill, on the motion of the Earl of CORK, was read a second time. EAST INDIA LOAN BILL. This bill was read a third time and passed. PUBLIC OFFICES EXTENSION BILL. This bill was read a third time and passed. THE TURNER PICTURES. Lord ST. LEONARDS rose to ask the President of the Council whether any steps had been taken to provide a separate gallery for the Turner pictures, in connec tion with the National Gallery, according to the conditions of his will, under which the nation possessed the pictures. The noble and learned lord referred to the manner in which the petitions were bequeathed to the nation, and said that it was not only a national but a legal obligation to carry out the provisions of the late emi nent painter. [LEFT SPEAKING.] HOUSE OF COMMONS.—(Tms EVENING.) The SPEAKER took the chair at four o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The Lords' amendment to the London and North- Western Railway (Eccles and Wigan) Bill were con sidered and agreed to. The following bills were read a third time and passed : Brecon and Merthyr Tydfil Junction Railway (New Lines, &c. ); Bristol Channel Pilotage ; Chard and Taunton Railway ; Galway Harbour ; Lambeth Bridge ; Llanslly Railway and Dock (New Lines, &c.); London, Chatham, and Dover Railway (Deviations, &c.) ; North British and Peebles Railway Companies ; Shireoaks District Church ; Swansea Harbour Trust, Swansea Vale Railway, Waveney Valley Railway, West Hartlepool Harbour Railway (Ca pital, &c.), eston super Mare Gas, Wivenhoe and Bright lingsea Railway Bills. MOLD AND DENBIGH JUNCTION RAILWAY BILL. On the motion for the third reading of this bill, which was opposed, Lord Rd. GROSVENOR moved that the standing order 172 should be suspended, and that the bill be read a third time. After some discussion, the motion was agreed to, and he bill was accordingly read a third time and passed. NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE, DERWENT, AND WEARDALE RAILWAY BILL. On the motion for the consideration of this bill, Mr. H. WOODS moved as an amendment that clause 48 should be omitted, in order to facilitate the traffic of the neighbourhood of the railway. He complained that the consignors and consignees had not been fairly repre sented by those who appeared on behalf of the mining interest. The chief evidence was that tendered on behalf of the railway companies interested. He thought that the bill should be referred to a select committee. Mr. M. GIBSON opposed the motion, but solely on the ground that, if it was adopted, it would have the effect of throwing out the bill this session, as it would prevent its reaching the House of Lords in time to be considered ac cording to the stinding orders of the house. He sug gested that tho proper course to pursue would be for the promoters to meet and agree to the alterations proposed, and to have them introduced in the House of Lords. After some discussion the amendment was withdrawn, and the bill was considered and ordered for third reading. THE CENSUS IN IRELAND. In answer to Sir F. lIEYGATE, Mr. CARDWELL said the result of the census in Ire land, similar to that lately furnished for England and Wales, would be prepared by the middle of July, and would, he believed, contain very valuable and accurate in- formation. REMOVAL OF IRISH AND SCOTCH POOR. In reply to Sir F. HEYGATE, Mr. VILLIERS hoped the hon, member would defer his question until to-morrow, when he would be in a better position to answer it. PAROCHIAL RELIEF. Viscount RAYNHAM asked the President of the Poor Law Board, whether the authorities of workhouses are not bound by law to admit at all times all persons who apply to them for admission. Mr. VILLIERS said that he was happy the noble lord had asked this question, and stated that the authorities of the Unions were bound to admit persons applying for relief at the workhouse provided the establishment . was not full, but if it were the relieving officer would be instructed to obtain relief for the applicants in some other way. THE IRISH CONVICT DEPARTMENT. Lord Naas asked the Chief Secrrtary for Ireland whether Captain Crofton had intimated to the Government that, in his opinion, great difficulties would arise in carrying on the business of the Irish convict department, owing to the reduction that had lately been made in the number of the directors of the convict prisons ; and, whether Capt. Crof ton had in consequence announced his intention of retiring from the service. Mr. CARDWELL explained that while there was every disposition on the part of Government to consult economy, it was not intended to interfere in the slightest degree with the efficiency of the working of the convict system in Ire land. Captain Croton had merely expressed a fact, that the state of his health would render it necessary for him to restn his situation, which, he trusted, however, would not be the case. BLOCKADE OF RIO HACHE, In reply to Mr. BERKELEY, Lord J. RUSSELL said it was not a blockade, but a mere closing of the ports. SOUTH KENSINGTON MUSEUM. Mr. LOWE begged to correct an er;;;;hiel;:he made the other day, in stating that a paragraph which he had quoted as being from the report of the committee of the South Kensington Museum with respect to Captain Fouke's plan, was from the draft report, and not from the original. He read an extract from the latter, which was substantially the same. THE FIRE IN TOOLEY-STREET. Mr. Alderman SALOMON S asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if he proposed making inquiry into the circumstances attending the commencement of the recent fire in Tooley-street, with a view of ascertaining whether there was a sufficient supply of water in the mains of the company supplyin,gjhe district Sir G. C. LEWIS said that he had communicated with the commissioners of police on the subject, and their report was to the effect that on the first arrival of the engines there was not a sufficient supply of water. He did not think, however, that there was any necessity for enquiry into the subject. COURTS' OF JUSTICE BILL. Mr. LYGON asked the First Commissioner of Works whether he intended to proceed this session with the Courts of Justice Bill; and, if so, what day he would fix for the discussion on the third reading. Mr. COWPER said he hoped to be able to proceed with this bill this evening. EAST INDIA COUNCIL, &c., BILL On the motion for considering the amendments to this bill, Mr. H. SEYMOUR moved an amendment to the effect that the addition of two councillors to the legislative body in India should be permissive, and not compulsory. Some discussion followed, and the house divided, when the amendment was lost, the numbers being 155 to GO. [MT SITTING.] The Countess of Airlie was safely delivered of a son on Tuesday at her residence on Campden Hill, Her ladyship and infant arc progrooiug favourably. (BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.)

We were well supplied with lambs, which com manded full quotations—viz., from 5s 63 to Gs 4d per 81bs. Owing to the supply being rather extensive, calves were a dull inquiry, at the late decline in value. There was a moderate business doing in pigs ; but mulch cows were very dull at late rates.
