MONEY MARKET AND'CITY NEWS. CITY, Two O'CLOCK. There is very little variation to notice in the tendency of monetary affairs beyond the usual increase in the demand for accommodation at the close of the month. The market, -while more animated and slightly firmer, remains steady, and it is not expected to undergo any immediate change of importance. A favourable feature at the present moment is the falling off in the remit tances of gold to the United States, owing to the recent advance in the exchange at New York, and the loss incurred through some of the later consignments. Although shipments of specie in that direction, however, have received a check, large quantities of silver will no doubt be despatched to India ; and the Bank of France having failed to ob tain supplies of gold from Russia, may find it neces sary to open fresh contracts in this country. About £120,000 in Australian gold was sent into the Bank of England , yesterday. No important variation was exhibited in the Foreign Exchanges yesterday afternoon. Continued dullness pervaded the Liverpool Cot ton Market yesterday, and prices were about Id. per lb. lower. The sales were only 5,000 bales. A special meeting has been held to-day of the shareholders in the Pernambuco Railway Com pany, and the directors were authorised to continue to pay 7 per cent. interest, as heretofore, on the amount called up, until the line is completed. It was announced that 36 miles of the railway are now in operation, and the third section of 221 miles is expected to be opened this summer. At the half-yearly meeting to-day of the Austra lian Trust Company the usual dividend, at the rate of 8 per cent. per annum, was declared. About an average amount of business has been transacted to•day in the market for Public Securities, and the variations have been rather limited. The Funds have not been so buoyant as they were yesterday afternoon, but they have nevertheless Auch;Mt—.4 for money, 91t I for the 7th pros„ and 921-1 for 11farch. The New' Threes and the Reduced are firm at 911 f ; India Stock is at 218 ; ditto 5 per Cent. Loan at 99/ ; ditto 52 per Cent. Rupee Paper remains at 100.; Belk Stock at 233 ; and Exchequer Bills at 7s. to 3s. dis. In Foreign Securities the dealings have been moderate, but prices are tolerably well sup ported.

The advance in some instances, amounting to about 11 per cent. Great Westerns, North Westerns, and North British, have improved 102. ; Midlands, and South Easterns 15s. ; Great Northerns, and Lancashire and Yorkshire £1; and Caledonians and North Eastern (Berwick) £1 10s. Business in the Foreign and Colonial Markets continued very inactive. South Austrian and Lombardo-Venetian, however, improved 55., and Grand Trunk of Canada ss. East Indian declined 10s.

The following communications relate to the New Indian Loan and the position of the Indian Rail- Way Companies : • " London, Jan. 28. "The statement made in the Dimes of this morning, that.the raising of the New Indian Loan is entirely in consequence of the non-payment of sums intdthe Indian ) , 37 the railway ebmeaniero with dip dry facts of the case, but fails to convey to the public mind a correct view of the matter. The railway companies have never professed hitherto, or Until they shall be in full working, to raise capital in the market upon the bare merits of their undertakings, but only upon the strength of the guarantee of the Government of India. It is the gua rantee which is now failing to attract continued subscrip tions upon the terms of interest, which, until recently, have been amply sufficient for the purpose ; and Sir Charles Wood has probably adopted a wise course in preferring to deal with the market on behalf of that Government directly, to increasing thei rate of guaranteed interest, hitherto accorded to the railway companies, which would have the of their stock. effect of still f urther depressing the ma r k e t va l ue " "Sir,—ln your Money Article of yesterday it is stated, in reference to the issue of the Nov, 5 per Cent. Indian Loan of £3,000,000, that the rai s i ng of this loan is entirely in consequence of the non payment of sums into the Indian Treasury by the railway companies, and that but for the difficulty experienced by these undertakings in obtaining their requirements it would not Have been brought out.' I beg you will be good enough to allow me to observe that these remarks do not in any degree apply to the various enterprises comprised under the designation of the Scinde 4fti lwity Company. The share capital of the Scinde Rail- W ay, and of the Indus Steam Flotilla, was, in great pro- Do m rti ott, paid in anticipation, and the remainder with out ti:' e , lll tY when called up. The demand for the debenture s o f Scinde Railway was greatly in excess of the company's w Po r p,„ er a of issue.

(Before the Lord Chief Justice, and Justices Whiteman, Hill, and Blackburn.) THE QUEEN V. SYLVESTER. It will be recollected that towards the close of Michael mas term a rule was obtained by the Attorney-General calling upon Mr. Sylvester, the coroner who held the in quest upon the body of the child of Mr. and Mrs. Kent, of Road House, to show cause why there should not be a fresh inquiry into the causes and manner by which the child came by its death, with a view, if possible, of detecting the murderer or murderers, and thus clearing up a subject shrouded up to the present moment in impenetrable mystery. The Attorney-General moved, in the first instance, for the peremptory issue of a writ ad melius inquirendion, and the appointment of a special commission to re-investigate the mysterious murder of the child, on the ground that the 74 224 coroner had failed to discharg e hi s d u ty as suc h a t th e ti me 45 of the inquiry in not summoning before the jury and exa mining all the members of the Kent family. He contended that, in not having done so, theie was a miscarriage of justice; and in his argument he made serious complaints against the coroner in his official character for the alleged unsatisfactory manner in which he,had conducted the hi ll!, 11 quest. 8i The Court on that occasion declined to grant the rule in the manner in which the Attorney-General wished to obtain it, and, deeming it preferable to give Mr. Sylvester an opportunity of answering the charges made against him, they granted a rule nisi, and this morning Sir Fitzroy Kelly and Mr. Cole attended for Mr. Sylvester show cause why the rule ought to be discharged. The learned gentleman entered at great length into the various points raised by the Attorney-General, and ex plained and defended the acts of Mr. Sylvester, who had, on that occasion, acted :with the greatest impartiality throughout the whole of the painful and distressing in quiry. The Lord . Chief Justice said he was not called upon to 'give any elaborate judgment on the case, and after hearing the whole- of the arguments, he was of opinion that the rule ought to be discharged. It would have been better, erhaps, had the coroner embraced the offer of Mr. Kent to undergo examination, but his not adopting that course was merely an error of judgment. The other judges concurred, and the rule was accord ingly discharged. COURT OF CHANCERY. (Before the Lord Chancellor and Lords Justices.) Mr. Greaves applied for a writ of habeas corpus to bring up the body of a bankrupt of the name of Freston from the Queen's Bench Prison, illegally imprisoned there. The Lord Chancellor ordered the prisoner to be brought up on Friday week. APPEAL MOTION.-THE EARL 01' SIIREWSBITAT V. LEVEIL. Mr. Bolt, Q. C., was heard in reply. The Lord Chancellor reserved judgment. (Before Vice-Chancellor Wood.) JUDGMENT. MADISIN. V. CHAPMAN. This is an administration suit under the will of the late Thomas Chapman. The testator, by his will, devised his real estate to his wife, J. Chapman, and his two daughters, Mary Ann Chap man and J. Chapman, in several moieties for life, and on his Youngest daughtei attaining the ago 'of 21, to them and their children, or the survivor absolutely. The youngest daughter died before attaining the age of 21, and the ques tion raised was whether there was a vested interest in the survivor—both daughters died without children. His Honour the Vice Chancellor was of opinion that there was a vested interest in the surviving daughter in the realty, and that it passed by her will to the plaintiff, and decree' accordingly. His Honour remitted to his Chief Clerk to take an ac count of the real and personal estate 'of the testator, sub ject to the life interest of his wife. • His Honour also appointed a reviser, and directed the costs of suit to be taxed and paid out of the personal estate of the testator. IN RR IMAZIIIR'S TRUST. The testator by his will gave a gift of his property to his wife for life, and to his daughter, Elizabeth, or her children, if she survived her. His Honour was of opinion that, as the gift over was in existence, the survivor was, entitled to take it, and decreed accordingly. The costs were provided for. CRIMINAL COURT.-(THIS DAY.) OLD COURT. (Before Mr. Baron Martin.) THE LEATHER FRAUDS. James Cooke was indicted for misdemeanor. The pri soner was ono of the parties connected with the case of Poole, the wholesale boot and shoe manufacturer, at Northampton, who was last session found guilty of attempt to defraud his creditors, by concealing his property, and also of perjury. The jury found the prisoner guilty, and he was sen tenced to 12 months' imprisonment. POLICE ENCE—( Mis Day). MARLBOROUGH -STREET. ROBBING A CONTRACTOR AT TIIE GREAT NORTUERN RAILWAY.—George White, a carman in the employ of Mr. Garnham, who is employed by Mr. Bell, a large po tato salesman at the Great Northern Railway, to cart po tatoes, and George Ward, no Lome, a costermonger, were Charged with stealing a sack of potatoes. The prisoners were seen by Sergeants Boden, 11 D, and White 16 D, to remove some potatoes in a van from a sack bearing the name of Bell, into another, at the corner of Wells-street, and Ward was watched in'o the house of Mr. Roberts, The Boot,Wells-street ; and it appeared that Mr. Roberts, though admitting that Ward was a perfect stranger, had bought the sack of potatoes of Ward, giving Bs. and some beer for them (the price of potatoes now being about 15s.'a sack.) The prisoners were then taken into custody by the sergeants, and in Ward's'poCket was found the Bs. he had received from Mr. Roberts. Some other evidence having been given, the prisoners, at the request of Sergeant White, were remanded for a week. RUFFIANLY ASSAULT BY A PUGILIST.—John Drew, a pugilist, and Maria Johnson, a female who has been at this court several times on different charges, were charged before Mr. Beadon as follows : George Myers, 45 C, said that this morning, near Leices ter square, he found the female with others creating a great disturbance, and told her to go away, but she refused to do so, and made use of violent language, threatening to eat his eyes out. He tried to remove her, when the male prisoner came up and tried to get her away, and while in the middle of Leicester-square aimed a desperate blow at his eye, but which struck him in the mouth. He then seized him, and they all fell together, and while on the ground the woman tried to bite him in a delicate part of his person. A sergeant then came to his assistance. Sergeant Bradley proved going to the assistance .of the last witness, and seeing the man holding him by the throat and the woman, who was on the ground, had hold of the constable% coat with her teeth. While conveying them to the station, the man struck him, at the same time saying that he was a pugilist and was trained by Nat Langham, that no constable should take him, that he meant to have his knee cap off, and that he had lamed two or three others for life. • Mr. Beadon wished to know what business the prisoner had there at the time. He was a regular thief, and it was most likely his object was to get up a row for the purpose of robbery. He should commit him for a month, and the female for seven days. THAMES. A REAL I&isir Row.—Margaret Lakeman, an old Irish woman, Mary Ann Lakeman, her daughter, and Julia Claneey, were-brought before Mr. Yardley, charged with being drunk, disorderly, and fighting in Glasshouse-street, Rosemary-lane. Francis Kelly, a police constable, No. 130 11, stated that he had been continually called upon to suppress rows and fights in Rosemary-lane, and it had become worse since it was re-named Royal Mint-street, from its contiguity to the Mint. Last night there was a regular Irish row in Glass house-street, leading out of the lane. Ho was sent for, and informed that a child had been killed with a tin pot. He went there and found the place in an uproar, and the old woman Lakeman on the ground and a baby near her. There was a regular fight and " hullobooloo" among the Irish there. The old woman got up like a giant refreshed and commenced fighting, and a general row ensued. Mr. Yardley—Everybody fighting with everybody? Kelly—No, sir; they were matched. Regular sides. Mr. Yardley—And were the prisoners all on one side Kelly—Mother and daughter were on one side and fought desperately. Mrs. Lakeman hero said—lt was the dhrop taken, yer hanner's wortchip. I don't know how it began or how it ended. Shure now, I had a crack on the head. Roche, the gaoler of the court, said the Lakemans were continually engaged in the faction fights of Rosemary lane, alias Royal Mint-street, and the girl once cut a man's head frightfully with stones. Mr. Yardley—She is an improvement upon her mother —that is, she is much wors3. Kelly said he took the wounded child to the hospital. It was one month old, and tho doctor said it was vory much injured. Mr. Yardley—A chance blow, I suppose ? Kelly—l believe it was. It was struck with this tin pot. He produced one, which was battered, and there were stains of blood upon it. It had done service in the row. Mr. Yardley asked if th© girl Lakeman bad been in prison before, and Roche said that she had not. She charged a man with beating her, and it turned out she beat his head with stones. Mr. Yardley sentenced the old woman, Lakeman, to 7 days' imprisonment for being drunk and disorderly, and discharged the Other prhionerst PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO THE QTTEEN'S SPEECH, With regard to the question of reform in general Mr. Edwin• James has avowed his determination to his friends in private, to move an amendment to the Address on Tuesday next, should the Queen's Speech be silent on the subject •of representative reform. But we do trust that Lord Palmerston will deprive the member for Marylebone of the opportunity of moving his contemplated amendment. We cannot believe that his lordship will acquiesce in the views of some of his colleagues, that her Majesty's Speech should ignore the question of reform altogether.' That would be a great, if not a fatal mistake on the part of the Premier. If he should commit the error, then public feeling will be with Mr. Edwin James in moving an amendment to the Address ; and though such an amendment might not be carried, the Mi nistry would receive an amount of moral damage from the discussion and its attendant circumstances as would most probably prove the prelude to its ruin. Should the necessity be imposed on Mr. Ed win James of moving an amendment to the Address, we may be sure that Le will do it in right earnest. It will with him be no sham affair. If it should prove to be so, he would only damage his own reputation by undertaking the task at all. And let us warn the learned gentleman that he must not, in the supposed contingency, content himself with making what is called a slashing speech,— laying the lash about him right and left with that vigour with which, when it pleases-him, he can use that instrument of flagellation, but he must press his amendment to a division. That is, after all, the great point. We care but'little com paratively for speeches, no matter how eloquent or telling they may be. The votes the thing for us. —and for the country too. There is something unmistakably practical in the list of majorities and minorities. That is the real test of legislative character; and to that on the very first night of the session, should a divisien become necessary, the people will look with a special interest.—korning Adverhaer. INMATES OF T. PANVRAS TVOIIK- HOUSE. ALLEGED ROMAN CATHOLIC INTERFERENCE. Yesterday, at a meeting of the directors and guardians of the poor of St. Pancras, held at the Vestry Hall, Camden Town, Mr. Churchwarden Stockton in the chair, a report was presented from a committee appointed to investigate charges which had been preferred by the Rev. J. K. Jennings, the chaplain of, the workhouse, against certain Roman Catholic nurses and helpers, of preventing Protes tant inmates attending divine service, and in pre venting Protestant children singing Protestant hymns in their ward. The report stated that the committee had most rigidly investigated the charges preferred by the chaplain, and having heard his statements, and read several entries he had made in his diary, they examined the matron, the superintendent nurse, and a number of nurses and helpers, the schoolmis tress, anal had also heard Mr. Litton, the missionary appointed by the London City Mission, on 'the subject, and found that the Protestant inmates of the workhouse had not been prevented attending the ministrations of the Rev. J. K. Jennings, the chaplain, but that on one occasion, when the Pro testant helper in the Female Insane Ward was ill, Hannah Daley and Catherine M'Carthy, Roman Catholic helpers, refused to accompany them to the morning service :in the Vestry Hall. M'Carthy had since left the house ; and Hannah Daley, having disobeyed orders, and answered questions in a most unsatisfactory manner, should be dismissed from her office of helper. The committee found that there was an afternoon service every Sunday in the Female Insane Ward, conducted by Mr. Litton. The committee had far ther to report that the charge made _against a Roman Catholic helper, that she had prevented the children in Ward 29 singing Protestant hymns as heretofore, entirely failed. The committee regretted that the chaplain did not exercise more care and discretion betore bringing such charges under the notice of the board. Mr. JAMES TAYLOR moved the adoption of the various paragraphs of theveport seriatim. After a lengthened conversation, the paragraph about removing the helper was carried by a majority of tbree, but the paragraph censurirlg the conduct of the chaplain was carried unanimously. The Rev. Mr. JENNINGS was called in, and, on the, report being read over to him, he said he would stand upon his statements, and was ready to make affidavit of them ; on which he was` reminded that he had the opportunity of hearing all the statements and cross-examining the witnesses, during a sitting of three hours and a half. He replied that the Catholic witnesses received absolution for telling lies against Protestants. He wished to show them fhauhey had a sharp Protestant chaplain watch ing them. The CHAIRMAN— Very well ; but do it morcifnlly and truthfully. The chaplain then retired, and the proceedings terminated. SP.RIAG CIRCUITS OF THE JUDGES, 1801.

BETTING AT MANCHESTER, TUESDAY. We had rather a busy day, and a fair amount of wager ing was done on both the Chester Cup and the Liverpool Steeplechase.. For the Chester Cup, Man at Arms and Chero Arnie were each supported at 25 to 1, but it seemed to us that there was most money for Man at Arms. Wal lace had friends at 100 to 3, which price would have been taken about The Lawyer. For the Liverpool Grand National Steeplechase, 16 to 1 - each was taken about Jea lousy and Auntie ; and 20 to 1 each was laid and' offered against Goldsmith and The EmpePor. For the Two Thou sand Guineas Stakes, -8 to 1 was taken and offered against Klarikoff. Preceptress was supported freely at 10 to 1, but no less was taken that we saw. CLOIiNG PRICES.

The bulk of the. English _wheat on sale in to-day's market was chiefly the refuse of Monday, and in very poor .ondition. Eoth red and white samples met a very dull trade, at barely that day's decline in the quotations. The imports of foreign wheat are large, and - tiirewas full average show of samples on the stands. geCted and useful qualities were in lair request, at full prices, but , other kinds ruled excessively dull. In floating cargoes very little business was transacted, at drooping currencies. We have to report a very. slow sale for all descriptions of barley, at the recent redubtion in value. Malt moved off heavily, but we have no ehange to notice' in prices. , - 1 Oats were quite as dear as on Monday, and the show of ; 'samples was very moderato. • Beans and peas were tolerably firm iz price, but the : bit:siness doing in them was somewhat restricted. The flour trade was very dull, and to have forced sales loWer rates must have been submitted to. ARItIVALS THIS WEEK. Wheat. Barley. _ Malt. Oats. Flour.
