MONEY 31zIRKET AND CITY .N.EIVS. CITY, Two O'CLOCK. From the textile manufacturing districts accounts during the past week have been of a favourable cha racter. The woollen trade at Leeds has been more active owing to operations in goods for the home Winter demand. At Bradford and Huddersfield st the dealings in piece goods have slightly increased, and prices have been fairly maintained. Business st t , at Manchester has been steady ; operations, how ever, have been checked by the advance in the value of cotton. At Leicester and Nottingham the ! hosiery and lace trades have shown symptoms of improvement. In the hardware districts there has been little change of importance and notwithstand t ing a slight reduction in the prices o f iron, business :t: has continued generally very inactive. st, There is no alteration of importance to record in the general condition of the mone y market, est,', the inquiries being moderate, while the rates, st , although not lower, s till show a tendency to st, recede. The ordinary demands for commercial Sti Purposes are of course very limited, because trade :f , remains in an inactive state , but the subscriptions sti to the Indian Loan have no doubt influenced the st; market to some extent, while an additional effect st' is likely to be produced by the payment of the st instalments. On the Stock Exchange the inquiry r t is very quiet, and loans can be obtained at corn- st st Paratively low quotations. In the Liverpool Cotton Market on Saturday an average amount of business was transacted, and S' prices were steady. The sales were about 10,000 bales. About £BO,OOO in gold was sent into tha Bank of England on Saturday. The Norfolk has been announced i'rom Port Phillip with £235,140 in gold. The half-yearly meeting of the Meliterranean Extension Telegraph Company will take place on the 7th proximo. • At the half-yearly meeting of the shareholders in the Union Bank of Australia to-say a dividend . t , Was declared at the rate of 12 per teat. per annum. st , There has been a quiet market for English Securi ties, and the few dealings entered into for trans fer and on speculation failed to influence prices, Consols still being 90 90 k for trar s f er, and 901 I ; for 19. the account. The New Threes and Reduced Annuities st' are 89! ; the New 21 per Cents. 751 ; the March Exchequer Bills, 7s. dis. ; and the June ditto, 2s. F e dis. to par. Bank Stock is 230 231. st In the Indian Market the principal feature has s been the New Loan Scrip, which has further im proved, namely, to 100 i ; the other stocks, how- e 2 0,,, ever, have also tended upwards ; the 5-1- per Cents. stor are supported at 101 ; the Debentures , 1863, at 961; st(2)(,' and those of 1859 at 951. 25 The operations in the Foreign Market have been ,t r ei Confined to very few securities. Turkish 6 per ;a m , Cents. have improved to 781 t, and those of 1858 ',. 2 J to 641 t, they are now 78 781 and 63/- 642, respec- 25 tively, being lets buoyant. The £lOO bonds havestocl been dealt in at 652, also showing an advance. St l o ° Ci Sardinian have been marked 79 ; Spanish 3 per 50 2 1 Cents., 48 ; and Venezuela 3 per Cents. , 17 1. 2( In the Railway Share Market there has been A , more activity and prices have shown an upward steel movement.

No lives were lost, and on the same day the crew reached Port Beau fort. The captain immediately communicated with Lloyd's Agent, and returned with his assistant to the scene of the wreck. As it was impossible to ap- Proach the ship, little or nothing of her cargo was saved. The master appears to have been 22 years the sea, durinf, , five of which he was employed in Ine coasting - trade between Cape Town and Port Natal, and professed to be well acquainted with the Provailing winds and currents. This local know ledge, and the fact of his laying up so well at the tithe, perhaps induced him to stand in somewhat closer than, looking at the result, proved to he con- Eistent with strict prudence; but as from previous e xperience he expected 'a land wind at sunset, and felt confident, as he reasonably might , that his ship W ould stay, I am disposed to regard the subsequent occurrence more as an unforeseen casualty than an error of judgment amounting to a default. Under these circumstances, no want of sobriety of culpable neglect being proved, 1 have, with the full concur re'lce of my colleague in the inquiry , felt myself Wa rranted • in returning to Captain Graystono his certificate,. with the expression of a hope t h at the d isaster , Iby whi c h so va l ua bl e a s hip and cargo were lost will be a caution to him for the future.

CORN EXCHANGE. The leading country markets held on Saturday were very moderately supplied with wheat, yet the trade gener ally ruled inactive, at about stationary prices: Spring corn moved off slowly, and flour was much neglected, though without material change in value. Throughout the Continent the transactions in wheat and flour for export have been unimportant. Advices from the United States mention a further considerable fall in the prices of breadstuffs. Up to our market, last week, the arrivals of English grain were very small. From abroad we received 45,542 quarters of wheat, 1,290 barley, 18,903 oats, 15 beans, 3,787 peas, 168 linseed, 4,304 oilseeds, 2,100 maize, 150 sundry seeds, 782 sacks, and 44,209 barrels of flour. The show of wheat from Essex end Kent to this morn ing's market was small, and comprised but few samples in fine condition. For these the demand ruled steady, and prices were well supported ; but inferior qualities moved off slowly, yet no change can be reported in their value, compared with this day se'nnight. Owing to the large importatioa, the supply of foreign wheat was extensive. In good and fine samples a fair retail business was transacted at full quotations ; but inferior descriptions were somewhat neglected, yet prices were fairly supported. Floating cargoes of grain were in very moderate request ; nevertheless, the currencies ruled tolerably firm. The demand for barley was much restricted, yet no change took place in prices Malt changed hands to a limited extent on former terms. Good fresh oats were in fair request at full prices. In ferior kinds, the supply of which was tolerably large, sold slowly at late rates. There were very few English beans and peas on offer. Foreign parcels were in moderate supply and slow request, at previous currencies. The flour trade was in a sluggish state, owing to the large arrival of American barrels, which for the must part changed hands at late prices, but where sales were pressed rather less money was accepted. The value of other kinds ruled about stationary. CURRENCY PER IMPERIAL MEASURE.

A ful average supply of Foreign stock was on offer in to-day's market, in but middling condition. Sales pro • greased slowly, at about stationary pri ce s. From our own grazing districts, the receipts of beasts fresh up, this morning, were moderately good as to num ber, but deficient in quality. Prime Scots, crosses, and shorthorns sold freely, on rather higher terms—a few of the former having realised ss. 2d. per Sibs, but inferior beasts were a dull inquiry, at last week's currency. The arrivals from Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Nprthamptonshire comprise d 1,600 shorthorns, other parts of England, 800 various breeds ; f ro m Scotland, 260 Scots and crosses ; and from Ireland 130 oxen and heifers. About an averagt supply of sheep was in the pens. Downs and half-breds u - ere scarce, and in request, at ex treme rates; all other breeds, however, moved off slowly ) at late quotations. The best old downs were worth fully ss. 4d. per 81bs. We were fairly supplied with lambs. The best breeds were taken off readily, and in some few instances, 6s. 4d. per 81bs was realised for Down qualities. Inferior lambs were heavy, at from ss. to ss. 4d. per Blbs. The supply of calves was good, and the veal trade was in a sluggish state, at barely stationary prices. There was only a limited inquiry for pigs, and the quo tations had only a drooping tendency.

Nothing of a definite nature has yet transpired towards elucidating the mystery with which this shocking affair is still surrounded. On the one hand, it is stated that money matters led to the unfortunate occurrence ; while on the other, it is asserted that a lady is in the case: Which of the two statements is the correct one it is impossible to say, and the question must remain unanswered until an inves tigation of the whole affair takes place at Bow-street Police-court. _ The state of the two men is, notwithstanding the in juries that Roberts has received, satisfactory, owing to the great attention that has been paid to them by Mr. Canton and the other surgeons at Charing-cross Hospital. • On Saturday afternoon Mr. Corrie, the magistrate, was sent for to take the statement of Roberts, as it was said he had expressed a wish to give his version of the affair, but on the arrival of the worthy magistrate, Roberts had changed his mind, and said his injuries were yet too painful to allow him to give any information touching the fearful struggle. This afternoon, the answer to inquiries at the hospital was, that Major Murray and Mr. Roberts continue to im prove, although the latter was far from being out of danger. LAW INT.ELLIOBNCE—(This Day). COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner Holroyd.) IN RE UNDERWOOD-REFUSAL OP CERTIFICATE. This bankrupt was described as of Long-acre, Covent garden, and Drury .lane, grocer, and appeared a few days Rinse for fraudulent trading. • His Honour referred to the grounds of the opposition, which have been published in detail. The bankrupt had been twice insolvent, and in the latter part of 1858 commenced a system of purchasing goods on credit and at once selling at cost price or less, and in the present state of affairs it was shown that he owed £8,600. and the profits amounted to £2,152; the trade expenses, £3,962; domestic, £600; losses, £3,954; bad debts, £1,356. His Honour went through a variety of cases, and on the authority of two, " Holthousd" and " Coleman," refused the certificate on the ground that the bankrupt had syste matically obtained grants on credit in the ordinary course of business. His Honour added that if the bankrupt was taken in custody on a B. A. certificate he might apply for his discharge after he had been in prison three months. Mr. C. E. Lewis pressed for protection for 21 days to give the bankrupt time to appeal. Mr. Linklater, for the assignees, objected, unless Mr. Lewis pledged himself to appeal. 1 Mr. Lewis said it was impossible to come to a decision at a moment, and his Honour granted protection for two days, to be extended if the bankrupt undertook to appeal. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day. THAMES. EXTRAORDINARY AND DARING HIGHWAY ROBBERY. —James Riley, a well-known thief, a resident of that in famous den Flower and Dean-street, Spitalfields, was brought before Mr. Selfe, charged with assaulting Mr. William Dixon, a commercial traveller, on the Queen's highway, putting him in fear, and feloniously taking from his person a purse containing 13s. The prosecutor was on his way home on Saturday night, and while i t w as rainin g turned into a public house opposite Whitechapel Church, to obtain some refreshment. "He was not exactly sober and not exactly drunk, but had ' a wee drappie in his e'e,' " and could tell what he was about. The prisoner addressed him as fathe:, and asked him to take past of a pot of beer. The prosecutor foolishly accepted the :ivitation of the prisoner, drunk some of the malt liquor offeod to him, and then became "perfectly insensible." The pro,;scutor, however, could recAlect that he was after wards knociOd down and robbed. The prisoner here put on that air of surprise and cringing attitude so characiseristic of Spitalfields and Whitechapel thieves when in custody, and said, in a whining tone— Please, your worship, the prosecutor's money got in my pocket, but I am sure I don't know how at all for I was drunk. George King, a young man, residing at 7, Mountford street, Whitechapel, said that he observed the pri soner and another man lead thd old man, Mr. Dixon, into a retiring place in Mountford-street, at about half past ten o'clock on Saturday night, and upon his leaving there the prisoner put his right arm round the prosecutor's neck and his left hand in his right trousers pocket, and took from it a purse or bag, which he trans ferred to his own pocket. The prisoner's companion then struck the prosecutor and knocked him down. The two thieves then ran up Mountford-street, one exclaiming to the other, " Nave you got it, Jack," to which the prisoner answered, " All right." There was no thoroughfare, and the prisoner and his confederate ran back again. The pro secutor got up and ran after the thieves, but he was so in toxicated that he soon fell down again. The prisoner passed by Whitechapel Church towards Osborne-street, and in his hurry fell down on his back. Before prisoner could recover himself, witness called to a police-constable, and gave him into cust3dy. The prisoner was being led across the street when he put his hand in his pocket and took the purse from it. The policeman's attention was im mediately called to the prisoner's action, and the prosecu tor's purse and money were recovered. Roche, the gaoler of the court, said the prisoner had been tried and convicted, and was a returned convict. The prisoner--'h ill you give me the name and address of that gentleman ? Mr. Selfe—Yes. Robert Roche, Thames Police-court, Stepney. The prisoner said he had nothing to say to the robbery. Mr. Selfe committed the prisoner for trial, and said the conduct of the witness King was deserving of great praise, and as he had lost a day's work, awarded him 6s. from the poor-box fund.

The only other horse we noticed being supported was Industrious, at sto 1. Calpe was mentioned, but no taking price trans pired. Shipwreck has great difficulty in maintaining his position in the Goodwood Stakes ; 100 to 8 was laid once. but afterwards 100 to 9 was taken and asked for. Schism was not quite so firm; 100 to 15 was laid, but was not ob tainable at the close. Brownie was freely supported, and Elcho, who for some time has been very quiet here, was backed at 100 to 9, while Surprise advanced from the 25 to 1 asked for yesterday to 100 to 6 (taken.) For the Good wood Cup, all the 100 to S's that could be got were taken about Thormanby; 6 to 1 was taken against The Wizard ; but not less than 5 to 1 each was taken about Optimist and Mons.

The returns just published show that in the year 1860 212 petitions were filed for dissolution of marriage, only one less than in 1859 ; and there were 62 petitions for judicial separation, 18 less than in the previous year. There were 13 applications for restitution of conjugal rights in 1860. 141 causes were tried. The fees received amoun ted to £2,490. FATAL ACCIDENT.—An accident of a very pecu liar character took place on Wednesday evening at Stan ley, on the Severn Valley Railway. A contractor had been sinking a deep well, and after blasting the bottom with gunpowder, one , of his men descended. H e was almost suffocated with fire- damp, and fell from the bucket when half way down. The contractor followed him, and fell in the same way. Ito was killed on. the spot. The workman was brought up alive by the gallant exertions awns minero, tlOO 15 all 100 1 JOINT-STOCK BANKS. ---- IQO Agra&UnitedServiee Bk 50 86 al ( 40 Australasia all 60 62 I 25 Bank of Egypt all 19 20 100 Bank of London ..... 20 Bank of Turkey 60 British North American all 51 53 20 Chtd.Bank of India, &c. all 191 201 20 4 25 Ch.

The warran t for the apprehension of the Baron de Vidil on the charge of attempting to murder his son was executed hi Paris. The Baron was arrested at the Jockey Club, and imme diate intelligei ice to the effect was telegraphed to London by Superinten dent Thornton, who has the matter in hand. On a represenaation of the facts alleged against the prisoner being made to the French Government, he was transmitted to the charge of two French officers for conveyance to Lon don, and we believe he arrived here last night, and the charge against :him will most likely be investigated at the Chief Police Got trt, Bow •street. With respe ct to the statement in the morning papers relative to the , eundition of the son, it was stated that his condition was somewhat precarious ; but such is not the fact, as he wa s well enough last Wednesday evening to attend with Mr. Ellis, the solicitor, before Mr. Corrie, the magistrate at Bow-street, and give a statement of the whole transaction, up= which the warrant was issued. While he was relating the strange affair, he pointed out to the magistrate the r larks of the injuries he had received, which were visible on his forehead and neck. The baron arrived in London this morning at eleven o'clock, and wilt be placed before the magistrate at Bow street Police-court this afternoon. EXAMINATION OF THE PRISONER AT BOW t3TREET.—(THIS DAY.) This afternoon the Count de Vidil was placed at the bar, charged, on the information of his son, with intent to mur der him. The prisoner appeared to be a spare, gentlemanly-looking man, about.so years of age. He is of the middle stature, and wears a very large flowing beard and moustache. He was dressed in a black frock-coat, a check Chesterfield wrapper, and light trousers. The Baron was brought from Paris to London in the custody of two of the French police, and by them delivered into the charge of Sergeant William son, of the detective force, under whose care he was brought to the police-court. The prosecution was conducted by Mr. Charles Pollock, instructed by Mr. Ellis, of Spring-gardens. The accused was defended by Mr. Sleigh and Mr. 0 rridge. In answer to Mr. Burnaby the prisoner said his name was Alfred Louis Pons de Vidil. Mr. Pollock said—l ask you to grant a fresh warrant for the apprehension of the prisoner, as some difficulty might perhaps hereafter arise. The prisoner, on being made aware of the charge against him in Paris, made a request to the Prefect that he might attend in England to answer the charge, and therefore I cannot say that he was appre- hended on your warrant. Mr. Corrie—l don't think such a course at all necessary, the prisoner is now in custody. Mr. Sleigh—The Baron is here at his own request to speak freely. Mr. Pollock—l did not say that the prisoner merely attended at his own request. Mr. Corrie—l don't think any new warrant is necessary, so we will proceed with the case. Mr. Pollock—l am not in a position to go on with the evidence at the present moment, so I propose to have the deposition that was made when you issued your warrant read, and, having produced a witness to identify the prisoner as the Baron de Vidil, I ask you, Sir, to remand the prisoner to a future day. Mr. Sleigh—My client is charged with wounding with intent to murder, and I think I have a right to demand' that some evidence be adduced before he is committed to prison on such a charge. Mr. Pollock—l intend to have the deposition read, and to ask for an adjournment, as I am not prepared to go on. Mr. Corrie—Do I understand you, Mr. Sleigh, that you object,to such a course ? Mr. Sleigh—Certainty not. I shall not resist such a proceeding. I wish the person who made the deposition to be present while it is read, and then to have it entered as his sworn statement; but I say that I think evidence of some sort or other should be offered before the baron is locked up as a prisoner. Mr. Corrie—Are you, Mr. Pollock, prepare' to go on with the case to-day ? Mr. Pollock —Certainly not. Mr. Sleigh—What I contend is that there ought to be some evidence offered to justify the detention of the baron. Mr. Corrie—All I have to ask you, Mr. Pollock, as re- presenting the Crown on this occasion, is, are you prepared to go farther than merely identifying the prisoner to-day. If not,. I shall take the responsibility of remanding the prisoner—a magistrate has the power to remand without any evidence being offered at all. Mr. Burnaby, the chief clerk, having read the charge against the prisoner, which was to the effect that he did, on the 23th of June last, wilfully and maliciously cut and wound Alfred John de Vidil, with intent to kill him, Mr. Pollock called Mr. Parker, who, in answer to the questions of the learned counsel, said—l am a magistrate of the county of Hertfordshire. lam acquainted with the person of the Baron de Vidil. I have known him for some years. The person standing at the bar is the Baron do Vidil. Mr. Corrie—l will now hear what you have to say, Mr. Sleigh, but I don't think it at all necessary to proceed fur ther to empower me to remand the prisoner. Mr. Sleigh—lf that is your view of the case, sir, I have nothing further to say. The prisoner was then remanded until Wednesday neat. Mr. Sleigh—l think lam justified in saying that if the communications that have been made to me during the few minutes' conversation I have had with my client are borne out by evidence, a very different complexion will be put upon this case hereafter. The Baron was then removed from the dock. During the proceedings he appeared to be greatly agitated, and held his hand up to his face to conceal his emotion. The court was crowded to suffocation during the pro- ceedings. About twenty minutes to six o'clock the prisoner was re moved in the police vaia to the House of Detention, amidst the hootings and groans of the large crowd outside the court. The answer to tho charge, WO believe, will be, that the son le ft person of unsound mind. The witness Rivers, who stated he witnessed the whole transaction,/h been taken very seriously ill by the rup ture of a bloodvessel, and although the statement of the transaction has been taken from him, yet it cannot be used as evidence against the accused, as he was not present when it was elicited. In the event of any serious re sult being apprehended, the prisoner will be taken down to Twickenham for the purpose of identification. IVIPE RIA L PARLIAMENT, SOUSE OF LORDS.--(THIS EVENING.) The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at five o'clock. THE CRIMINAL LAW AND THE FINANCES OF INDIA. The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH presented a petition from the European residents in India, praying that in cases of criminal prosecution they should be tried by none other than an English judge a nd by an English jury, and that proceedings should be in the English language. He thought that in point of justice the first part of the prayer should certainly be granted, since in consequence of the mutiny it might be supposed that a feeling of animosity might linger in the minds of a native judge. With regard to the second portion of the petition it would not bo always possible, he knew, to ob tain an English jury. As far as the last part of the peti tion was concerned he thought that no objection to it could possibly be raised. He also presented a petition from the Central Committee of the P Anglo. Indian Protection A s sociation, to the effec t that charges properly belonging to the Home Government should not be fixed upon the resources of India. CHURCH RATES. The Bishop of BATH and WELLS presented several petitions in favour of church rates. TREAS ORE c TROVE . Lord TALBOT DE MALAHIDE, in c a lling the atten tion of the house to the law of treasure er trove, dilated at cons id era ble length on the present impfect state of the ov©d for some ret ur ns on the law on this subject. He mo subject. N The LORD CHACELLOR said that the great diffi culty in the way of legislating on this subject arose from th e necessity of He compensation if any private rights were abolished. He quite agreed with the noble lord with reference to the defective state of the present law. Lord TALBOT DE MALAIIIDE would only .propose at present to explained that he alter the law in cases where no private rights would be affected by such alteration. The Duke of ARGYLE did not speak on this sulject a s a member of the Government, but he desired to thank his noble friend for having brought this subject forward. His own attention had been called to the sub ject some time since in Scotland, when he became aware of the injurious action of the present laws lie knew of Ap° many interesting historical relics which had been con.. signed to the melting pot to escape the legal claims against them. [LEFT SITTING.] HOUSE OF COMMONS—(Trus EVENING.) The SPEAKER took the chair at four o'clock. PlitIVATg BUSINESS. _ The Lords' amendments to the following bills were con sidered and agreed to :—Barnsley Coal Railway. London and North-Western, Lancaster and Carlisle, and Caledo nian Railways, Marlborough Railway, Rathkeale and Newcastle Junction Railway, South Yorkshire Railway (Keadby Extension), and Wigan Gas Metei and Fitting Company.

PETITIONS. Several petitions were presented against the sale of in toxicating liquors on Sundays ; in favour of amendments in. the Irish Poor Law • and, from Agra, in favour of estab lishi-ag i n d epen d en t presidential councils throughout India. INDIA. Sir IL "WILLOUGHBY give notice that on the second reading of the Enlistment Eastlndiaßill, he would move an amendment to the effect that it was not expedient, at this late period of the session, to impose on the Indian revenue the charge of M 20,000, as proposed by the Government mea sure. GENERAL 'WINDHAM. Mr. CONINGHAM asked the Under Secretary , of State for War upon what principle had General Windham been appointed to the colonelcy of a regiment, and what military exploits had he performed to justify such an appointment ? Mr. BARING said that when the hon. member for Brighton had previously addressed the house he had en deavoured to explain as satisfactory as he could the prin ciple on which the appointment was made. The conduct of Gen. Windham on different occasions, and particularly at the Reden, had been spoken of in the highest terms by his commanding officer, and in 1855 formed the subject of special praise in the Gazette. He strongly protested against the practice that prevailed of making attacks on distinguished officers in this house when they had not an opportunity of defending themselves. THE GOVERNMENT WORKS Ar CHELSEA. Mr. CONINGHAM asked the Under Secretary of State for War whether a body of men belonging to the Royal En gineers had been employed by the War Department on the barracks at Chelsea, in consequence of the strike among the masons; and, if so, whether such a proceeding be con sis.tent with the principle of non-interference between the masters and men ? Mr. J. T. BARING said that a few sappers had been sent to Chelsea, owing to the strike alluded to, and in order to prevent the works being suspended. THE BANKRUPTCY AND INSOLVENCY BILL In reply to Sir F. KELLY, Sir G. C. LEWIS said that the amendments in this bill would be taken oR Thursday, and his noble friend at the head of the Government decided that evening, or tomor row, the course which the Government proposed to take in reference to these amendments. BRITISH SUBJECTS IN AMERICA. Mr. T. DUNCOMBE asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if he had received any fresh complaints of the treatment of British subjects in the Secession States; and to make a statement upon the subject. The hon. mem ber entered int. some explanations in reference to some statements which had been made when he brought this subject before the house. Lord J. RUSSELL said he had not heard that there was any complaint against the conduct of the British Con sul at Savannah, but there had been some complaint in re spect to the case alleged of a captain of a merchant vessel having been tarred and feathered. He believed that the British consul had done all in his power in regard to this subject. BUSINESS OF THE HOUSE. In reply to Colonel WILSON PATTEN and Sir F. KELLY, Lord PALMERSTON said that he would state to-morrow the course which the Gdvernment would purpue with refer ence to the Bankruptcy and Insolvency and other public bills. Sir G. C. LEWIS said that if possible the Election Law Amendment Bill would be brought on next Friday. Ho stated subsequently that the bill would not be brought on this week. EDUCATION IN IRELAND. On the motion for going into committee of supply, Mr. BUTT moved " That, in the opinion of this house, it is expedient in distributing the grant for the purposes of Irish education to enforce the rule of refusing aid to all schools in which religious teaching is made a part of the general instruction of the school." The hon. and learned gentleman said that this grant had risen from £30,000 to £300,000 a-year, and in proportion to that increase should be the vigilance exercised in the application of the vote. Ile contended that the house had been deceived by the returns made relative to the extent of united education in Ireland. From these returns it appeared that there were in Ireland 3,000 when it was sup posed that the system of united education was in'opera tion, and that they were attended by 300,000 children of different religion . The fact was, however, that out of these 3,000 schools there were only 478, when there wasno more than 478 when united edneaVon was given, and in some of these there was only one Protestant child. He contended that the present system was opposed to the na tional feeling, and he called on the house to deal with this import.tt t question in an enlightened and comprehensive spirit, which would strengthen the ties that bind the people of Ireland to this country and to Parliament. Mr. WEVOY seconded the motion. Mr. LEFROY said that he concurred with some of the observations of the hon. and learned member (Mr. Butt), and was of opinion that much good was not effected in pro portion to the amount subscribed for the purpose of na tional education in Ireland. He cited the authority of Archbishop Whately to prove that, both in principle and practice, the working of the existing system, since the change in the constitution of the national board had been a fai ure. At the same time it would be more advisable to have the money for the educational grant dispersed through the mediation of a responsible board than according to the mode which prevailed in this country; but that board must be considerably altered before it would possess the confidence of the people of Ireland. That board must be composed of' men of business, responsible to Par liament, and prepared to conduct the duties entrusted to them with impartiality. [LEFT SPEAKING.] TdTTERSALLS'—(TILIS E VEXING).

In addition to the address the envelope also bore the superscription " Upon Christ's service." On opening this strange missive it was found to contain an intimation that London will be de stroyed in 40 years, and, as a reason why the civic authorities of Bristol should fol an interest in the faie of the metro polis, they were further informed that unless they repented 1 they should all likewise perish, tes g )nt ce- ,ored ;s of ling and ;e is ;tent race ibed it of L A. nerit coral the the le of adia. ) the e as race, went ; are tility civi vhen rnes3 6 sii 4; 11f i 18; 981 8 091 81 62 60 951 t lit I li 2 5j 5
