The Lirespool Cetton Market, yesterday closed buoyant, and prices of all kinds were much the same as previously. The sales were estimated at 8,000 bales. The Railway Share Market closed firmly, without any material change in prices. Accounts from Alexandria to the Bth instant state that the Bank of Egypt, formed in London, are about to commence operations. The Circular issued by them to the mercantile community men tions that they possess no special privilege which would be contrary to the treaty. It is also said that a new company has started to solicit a conces sion for towing vessels on the Nile. The Commis sion of Consuls-General charged with preparing the code of regulations for the mixed tribunal on c ommercial affairs in Egypt hav3 already met many times. The work before them presents many difficulties, but the consular body is able to over come them. The matters pending between that t Tribunal and the Government had there terminated s atisfactorily before the departure of the President, w'ho had left for Europe. Mr. Bruce, the English C onsul-general, gets the credit of this, as it was a question which his predecessor, Mr. Murray, had edieited without success from the Government dui in g the viceroyalty of Abbas Pacha. The suspension of Messrs. Marzetti and Sons, mer chants and underwriters, was announced yes terday, and the event is much regretted, since the firm occupied a good position and had very exten sive connections. Nothing definite is yet known With regard to the liabilities or assets, but it is pre sumed that a good dividend will be realised. The Bank of England return, completed for the week ending the 12th inst., is exceedingly unfa vourable, and has therefore excited considerable attention. In the bullion there is a material falling off, and the next statement is likely to show a fur ther diminution, since it is now ascertained that the whole of the gold brought by the Fran sis Hardy and the Earl of Sefton has been Pcirchased for remittance to the continent. Many or the alterations are produced by causes which usually occur, however, at this period of the year, Ruch as the payment of the dividends, and the in creased demand for gold for agricultural purp — o7e7: It is evident that the Government has been corn- Pelled to raise money on deficiency bills to pay the Consols and other securities. The return is con sidered very unsatisfactory, but many of the re sults it exhibits were fully anticipated.

Scieral notices stood on the paper for consideration relating to the main intercepting drainage quetition. The appearance of these notices led to come discussion as to how they were to be dealt with, and it wa3 at len3th determined that a special day should be set apart for their consideration. A . letter was received from the Office of Worke, drawing the attention of the board to the fact that there would be a surplus arising from the London bridge A pproaribes Fund, and suggesting that such surplus should be ap plied to completing a new street from Coventry street to Covent-gander. The letter was ordered to be printed, and taken into consideration on a future day. Some regulations having been agreed to for the days of meet ing and order of proceedings to be followed, the board adjourned. 5. Plenty 6. Tisiphone 7. Ava 8. Scarf 9.

LONDON ROWING CLUB REGATTA. The gentlemen of the London Rowing Club have de termined upon having a pair -oared race on Thursday next, in heats, the distance in each to extend from Hammersmith to Putney ; and in order that the race shall be got up so as to afford all parties a chance of success, the rowing members of the club, according to their established merit, were divided into two classes, one of which was drawn to constitute the pair. The arrangements were completed on Thursday night last, at Mr. Death's, the Star and Garter Tavern, Putney, when the following became partners, via, : Messrs. Pyle and Wray. ▪ Casamajor and Cuff. Nottidge and Sari. ▪ Shearman and Dobrie. ▪ Burgess and Burchett. ... Drake and Sampson. ... H. H. Playford and Turner. • Ireland and Addision. Granville and Finnison. There are some excellent rowing men in the above list, which will render it unquestionably a very tight race. THAMES SUBSCRIPTION CLUB. The above newly-formed gentleman's club upon the principle of the Royal Thames Yacht, for the purpose of encouraging rowing upon the river Thames, have de termi.red upon giving the coat, boat, freedom, and money prizes annexed to it, to the amount of 301., at the forthcoming Royal Thames National Regatta ; with a further gift of 20:. towards the Regatta Fund, which it behoves all admirers of the sport to lend their aid to suppoi t. DOGGETT'S COAT AND BADGE. The following six young watermen were chosen by lot la-t evening, at the Fishmonger's Hail, to contend on the Ist of August for the coat and badge bequeathed by Mr. Thomas Doggeti - , comedian, in honour of the acces sion of the family of her Majesty to the throne of these realms :--- George William Everson Greenwich. Thomas Coombes Mortlake. James - Edward Petrea Greenwich. James Thomas Pockneal .Pickle Herring. Frederick Geo. Jas. Hovey Isleworth. Wiliinm Manesy Isleworth. There were 14 others iwho had not the good fortune to obtain "a lot." To the coat and badge are added three fifths of the interest on 3001. South Sea Stock, bequeathed by Sir \V. Jolliffe; for the second man, and tvi-n-Wths for third, besides various other prizes recently added by the Fish mongers' Company. DESTRUCTIVE FIRES. Last 'night, at about 10 o'clock, a fire, which did damage to the amount of many thousand pounds, took place in the premises belonging to Messrs. Pimm and Rands, known as the Shad Thames Flour-mills, at the side of aprsleydown Canal, and extending into Shad Thames.. The building formed a conspicuous object, from its great height, arid had a chimney shaft nearly 120 feet high. The mill, which was fitted with valuable steam power, contamed a variety of millstones, some weighing upwards of a ton each. At the time of the disaster the mill was in full work, and several of the workmen' were engaged in the place, when some one cried out, "Escape with your lives ; the mill is on fire." Upon some of the persons on the winks going to inspect the place they ease flames in the first floor warehouse, in which a large stock in trade was deposited. Iniorma:, tion of the misfortune was promptly despatched for assistance, and in a brief period Mr. Superintendent Brandford and Inspector Reading, with a strong muster of police of the M division, arrived and cleared a space for the engines and firemen to pass along. The engines of the parish, a great many land ones of the London Bri gade, and that of the West of England Insurance-office, and the powerful steam-float arrived in rapid succession, but by the time this force could be set to work the fire had extended completely through the mill, and had seized tijipn every floor to the top storey, and the flames af.the same moment played round the lofty chim ney shaft, until at length they ignited two or three vessels lying in the river, as well as the manure stores of Mr. M. Duckitt, whose premises extend round those of the mill, and there appeared no chance of saving any portion of the extensive oil works adjoining; The brigade engines were forthwith set to work under the personal superintendence of Mr. Braid wood and Mr. Henderson, and of the West of England under the charge of Mr. Connorton. At the time this account was written (one o'clock) the fire was far from being entirely extinguished. Another fire took place about five hours earlier. It commenced in the premises belonging to Mr. Linnin,g dine, cabinetmakers, in Featherstone-street, City road. Owing to the inflammable character of the stock, the flames soon seized on the timber in the spacious pretnis , s belonging to Mr. Cross, timber merchant, and various other houses surrounding, firing in succession so me t wo or three of the reefs. The brigade and West of England engines having arrived, they were set to work, but, the fire could not be extinguished until several thousand pounds worth of property had also been consumed. Mr. Linnitigdine was insured in the Phmnix Fire-office ; Mr. Cross, the timber-merchant, was insured in the Sun Fire office ; Mr. Cotterell, another person who has sustained great loss, was insured in the Piacenix-offics ; Mr. Bridges was insured in the West of England-office. FROME ELECTION.—The writ for the election of a re. presentative of this borough, in the room of Viscount Dungarvan, now Earl of Cork and Orrery, has been rs ceived. The nomination has been fixed for Monday next, and the polling will take place on the following day. The contest between Major Boyle and Mr. Donald Nicol is expected to be very close. j all all 10j 100 12 25 Wiltsitt:tomrst EFE EN UE ;311ALI, 84 - 90 117 120 - 118 i'3 95 101 - 103 16 - 17 5 - 51 6 --- 07 -- 100 - - 134 1 p 13 - - - 137 - - 139 78 - 80 .19 -- ,21.

Two miscellaneous concerts, on Wednesday and Thursday, wele iollowed yesterday evening by anothei ,Agrand perEr onnce of sacred mu s i c . Th e oratorio se cted on thieocca,iun was "Elijah," the next in popu larity as it i, the inearest in worth to the great work o ,Elancle'. If the inaueuration festival ftir the op'ening of the new musio:hall bad been productive of no other in cident worthy to be recorded, the fact that upwards of 7,000 persons were assembled in a public garden to listen to a composition of so elevated a character as,'‘ Elijah " would suffice to preserve the event from oblivion. Never was the masterpiece of Mend,lssohn performed before so vast an audience. The crowd was so enormous that numbers were compelled to listen to the music outside, which, as the weather had taken a favourable turn long before the concert began, was neither disagreeable nor inconvenient. To the credit of all present it should be added that the attention paid from beginning to end was just as mar k e d , an d t h e applause bstowed as warm and discriminating as any performance of a sacred oratorio we are able to remember. Nor were there any of those curtailments which are occasionally resorted to, with the intention of diminishing in some degree what certain sceptics, who will not admit that fine music can ever become popular, believe it to be the forced labor of listening to it. M. Jullien, it is unnecessary to say, was never of that persuasion; and he had good reason last night to persist in the faith which has hi•herto guided him in his public career. The crowd likes to be amused, beyond a doubt ; hut it also likes, now and then, to he edified. The "Elijah" of Mendelssohn was given on the present occasion, under M. Jullien's direc tions, precisely as it is given by the Sacred Harmonic Society at Exeter Hall—that is, allowing for the addi tional wind instruments indispensable to balance the weight of more than 800 voices and a complete army of " strings," just as the composer bequeathed it t o th e world. Not one note was omitted ; and yet we are convinced that when the final chorus---" Then shall your light break forth as the light of morning breaketh"— began, very few of the thousands of persons assembled, and none who bad followed the oratorio attentively throughout, were in the least fatigued. A long desul tory miscellaneous programme of vocal and instrumen tal music is far more wearisome to the spirit than one great connected work, in which the interest is gradually and sensibly developed. At any rate, the experiment of last night was triumphantly successful, and justified the hope that the Royal Surrey Gardens, with their new ball and their musical director, may be the means even tually of doing a great deal for the moral culture and improvement, as well as for the mere healthy relaxation of the masses. It is not, however, " festival " and ex clusive audiences—who can afford to pay ss. or 103. to h ar good music—but the shilling audiences to come about whom we are solicitous ; and we are pleased to find an enterprise on so large a scale as that of the Royal Surrey Gardens Company, - based upon the improving taste of the community and the higher tone of feeling that has of late years been forcing its way slowly and surely into the very humblest of our popular amuse ments, rather than upon consideration of profits to be obtained from sources less exemplary. But to leave speculation, and say a few words of "Elijah." On the whole the execution was admirable, _ _ and, taking into consideration the unprecedented num ber of voices and instruments that had to obey the indi• c ttions of M. Jullien's baton, really astonishing. The effect of the choruses was most impressive, and con fir►nei the good opinion of the acoustic qualities of the new hall, derived from " The Messiah" on the first day. The principal solo singers were Mesdames Clara Novello and Rudersdorff, Miss Dolby, Messrs. Weiss and Sims Reeves, whose singing in this well-known work requires no comment. At the termination of the second, as of the first part, the applause was unbounded ; and then the audience quietly dispersed, to enjoy the other amuse ments of the evening. The concert to-night, at which Alboni is announced to sing fur the second time, brings the " inauguration fes tival" to a close. Naval and Military Intelligence. The steam-transport Foyle, Capt. Wright, arrived at Spithead yesterday afternoon from the East. The Lady Russell steam-transport, No. 57, Capt. Smiley, arrived at Portsmouth yesterday from the East, with 164 non-commissioned officers and men, and 71 horses. The Norman steam-transport, No. 155, arrived at Spit head yesterday from the East. with 66 rank and file, and 58 horses of the Ist (King's) Dragoon Guards. The Countess of Durham steam-transport, Capt. An drews, arrived at Spithead yesterday from the Black Sea. Her Majesty's store-ship Tyne, Master-Commander P. Wellington, arrived from the Brazils and the Coast of Africa yesterday evening. Her Majesty's ship Balleisle, 6, Commander James Hoskin, arrived at Spithead yesterday morning from the East with the 88th Connaught Rangers. The following non-commissioned officers and privates, belonging to the Provisional Battalion, Chatham, have each been presented, by command of her Majesty, with a silver medal, together with a gratuity in money, for long and meritorious service:—Sergeant Thomas Dwyer and Private D. M`Laughlan, 10th Foot ; Private Wm. Todd, 53d Regiment ; and Private John Coneen, 87th Royal Irish Fusiliers. An order has been received at Chatham garrrison, directing the volunteers from tho St. Helena Regiment who arrived at Chatham, having disembarked from the Marlborough, Indiaman, on Tues,lay List, to proceed forthwith to join their respective regiments. Commander Charles Stirling, 16th of June, 1856, arrived at Sheerness yesterday, to commission the Wasp, 13 guns, screw steam-sloop, now in the fitting basin. The African paddie-Wheel steam-vessel, Second Master- Commander Reuben Harvey, left Sheerness yesterday, for the purpose of towing the new screw steam-frigate Emerald, 50 guns (launched yesterday at Deptford), to Sheerness, to be immediately fitted. The Insolent guil-boat, Lieut.-Commander Charles H. Smith, has returned her guns, gear, &c., to the Ordnance department at Chatham. She has been ordered to be held in readiness for the East India Company's service. The railway slips at Portsmouth for taking up 100 of the gun-boat flotilla by one trunk line and lateral arrangement are proceeding rapidly. These vessels were built in an unprecedentedly short space of time of all sorts of timber, seasoned and green, and closed in in winter, thus combining every element that has con duced to dry rot, which doubtless would have been at work in a year or two, so that when wanted upon an emergency the gun-boats would be found useless. Now, it is purposed to "open" them, and give the seasoning denied while building. The iron boats will be equally benotited, as the wet and damp, while afloat, promote rapid oxidation. The Government have been for years contemplating the ad lation of these heaving-up and Mr. White, of Portsmouth, whu is laving them down, will, by this wholesome arrangement, set their value, cheapness, and great capacity clearly before the world, The following paymasters of the navy have been ad vanced to the several classes from the Ist inst. : First Class—Robert J. Crispin, Wm. 11. Dutton, K. L. Sutherland, Edwar•l A. Smith, Win. H. Norman, George H. Mowbray, W. B. Farrow. Second Class—• Wm. L. Inch, John May, C. H. Nib iett, W. C. P. Grant, B,resford Scott, Frederick Cleeve, Francois J. I. Auret, James C. Aldridge, J. Lewis. Third Class—Wm. T. Biddlecombe, Nicholas Giles, William J. Jenkins, William H. Turner, Francis G. Pearce, Henry C. Pool, Thomas A. Teller, J. William M. Ashby, and James C. Pir.horn. AFFRAY AT ALDERSHOT. ALDERSHOTT CAMP, JULY 18. At an early hour this morning information was re ceived at the Waterloo-road terminus of the London and South-Western Railway, that a quarrel had taken place between the men belonging to the German Legion and the 41st Regiment of the Line. The circumstances which gave rise to the dispute were these :—The German Rifles arrived on Thursday last from Turkey, via Portsmouth, and while the greater por tion of the 41et Regiment were away from the camp those who were left behind proceeded to a house outside the liner used for the sale of refreshments. Upon enter ing this place the 41st mot a number of the German Le gion, and some words took place concerning some wotien who were present. The quarrel becoming fiercer, some of the Germans seized the Crimean medals which our soldiers had won on the field of battle, threw them upon the ground, trampled them under foot, and by their ges tures threatened to serve the British soldier's iu the same way. This, as might be expected, greatly irritated the men belonging to the 41st, who endeavoured, but vainly, to settle matters amicably, and it soon became apparent that the Legion was bent upon mi-chief. Having followed the 41st to about the middle of the ground between the north and south camps they began to batter in the huts of the English, and in a very short time nearly half a range of huts was destroyed. The parties having reached the middle of the heath, at the back of Price's Canteen, commenced their work in earnest, at least so far as the Germans were con cerned ; for, having formed a ring, and plenty of heavy flints being strewn over the ground, they pelted the men of the 41st in such a manner that the blood ran fr im their heads. llairing obtained additienal assistance, the 41st were getting the advantage of the Germans, when the latter made off, but shortly after wards returned with their firearms and bayonets, and more serious conse quences would have ensued had it not been for the ar rival of a body of el valry belonging to their own legion, as well as another British regiment. In spite, however, of this formidable body of mounted men, the Germans did not desist from hostilities, but, on the contrary, seemed to show every disposition to carry on the warfare. The cavalry then charged the men, and an orderly galloping up between the belligerent parties succeeded in scattering them. It was then found tbat several of the 41st Regiment were badly injured, but not so seriously as the German Legion, many of whom bled profusely from the wounds in their heads or face. Six were taken, streaming with blood, to the hospital of the Legion, supposed to have been killed, but the answer given this evening was that no man hal yet died, but that tho whole six before alluded to remained in a very precarious condition, and that several others had, during the day, been taken into the came institution, they having been found to be more seriously injured than was at &et imagined. A man named Bishop, belonging to the 41st, received the point of a bayonet under the fleshy part of the arm, as he was attempting to protect his head. About 9 o'clock the disorderly were marched off to the Guard-room, but so discontented did some of their coun trymen in arms appear that squadrons of cavalry were called out, and they trotted round the huts at intervals during the night. Every precaution has been taken by those in command to prevent a renewal of the disturbance. The circular then goes on to state the conditions on which skins, tobacco, salt, and other articles which have hitherto been Government monopolies, way be dealt in by private individuals, and pro ceeds:-- " We make up for the immense deficit which will be caused by the suppression of these numerous taxes, by a fixed light duty, intended for the support of the Go vernment, which is obliged to watch over the interests of all, and to insure the facility of communications through out the country. All my subjects who have attained the age of puberty shall pay to the treasury a monthly tax of three Tunisian piastres (the piastre is about 83 centimes). The tax is for the interest of the coun try, the tomb of our ancestors, and the cradle of our children. Neither the inhabitants of tents, nor of cottages, nor of towns, whatever may be their po sition, whether they be rich or poor, strong or weak, shall be exempted from this tax. The only exception will be men of the law, such as Cadis or Muplitis, for their task is to execute the law of God in affairs between Mus sulmane. . . . We have assigned to each of our employes a salary which appears to us to be sufficient for his wants. They must not therefore lay their bands on the property of the tax-payers, nor must their hearts covet the possessions of such persons either /or little or for much. If one of them shall depart from these pre scriptions, you will learn what consequences the anger and vengeance of God will entail on him. Our door will be open to all those who are oppressed, and our ears will listen to their complaints ; our eyes will watch narrowly the actions of our employ6s ; and you . will soon see h.isv I will keep my promisee. As to the Cheikhs of the Arabs, who are specially charred with the direct collection of this tax, we shall allow them 4 piastres per cant., 3 for them selves and 1 for their agents, but this will be paid by the Treasury and not by the people, who will only have to pay the 3 piastres." The document then proceeds to point out the manner in which the tax is to be collected in the different districts, and concludes as follows " The inhabitauts of the towns of Tunis, Kirouan, Soussa, Monastier, and Sfax, being subject to charges in herent to their respective conditions, shall not pay th e new tax of 3 piastres. The charges falling on them are much heavier than the said tax, but the inhabitants can readily support them, because these cities are the places for commerce, the great entrepots for merchandise, and the seat of manufactures. By the inhabitants of those cities we, however, understand only the natives of them. Those who are not so, although they may have been long residents, will be subject to the regulations of the district of which they are natives. The payment of the said tax wilt commence immediately. May God place my subjects and all Mussulmans in the number of those who listen to his holy word and conform thereto in order that the Most High may reward them according to their works and increase their happiness ! Salutation on the . part of the bumble servant of God the Mouchir Pacha Bey, whom may God assist. " Written in the month of Choual, 1272 (June, 1856)." The Bey, in his solicitude for commerce and for the welfare of his subjects, has also directed his attention to the state of his coinage. All the holders of gold coins are ordered within five days from the Ist July to pay them into the mint, and in exchange they are to receive two bills at pir, payable one in the first fortnight, and the second in the second fortnight of July. A sufficient delay is given for the holders of gold coin in the different points of the Regency. The• old gold coin thus called in will be recoined at a weight and quality which will represent the value of the piastre at • 63 centimes, the value given by the old Bay to the five-piastre pieces, and accepted by commerce. 1,500 95 95 190 1,050 500 250 11 150 10,913 gs. REFORM'S IN TG-NIS. The Bey of Tunis has just addl.( )ssed a proclani• tion to the inhabitants of the Rega ncy, in which he ;makes known to them the liberal reforms whichhe is about to adopt. We give the most salient points )f this document, which proposes to correct many abuses, and cannot fail, if steadily acted-on, to be attended . with the best results : "Praise be to God ! May salvation be with y ou . frome our lord and master- Mohammed ! Praise ;be 1,44: God, who has made prosperity depend on jUStige and goodness ; who has willed that the best :quality in man shall be love of his fellow-creatures ; who has devoted in him for the practice of this great virtue the two smallest parts of his body—his " - heart and his tongue; who has willed that men should be governed by different laws according to time and countries—laws destined to remove evil and to promote confidence and welfare • and who has selected for each nation, in order that these advantages may be secured to it, the men most attached to the true faith I . • . When the Most High confided to our feeble hands the task of governing yon and of watching over public and, private interests, we felt convinced that the first pre. scriptien of religion was to guard faithfully the deposit confided to our care, end we have placed our hope in the aid of the Most High, for the sovereign, being the elect of God, is protected by hiegrace. Ile is destined to secure the welfare of the people around him, and to shield them from the evil which may threaten them, but be cannot attain that object without assistance and support, that is to say, without faithful servants and disciplined armies. It is also evident that a government cannot go on without a certain amount of wealth ; that no country can prosper if not sufficiently peopled ; that a country can not be well peopled unless the inhabitants have con& denca in the justice of those who govern them; and that confidence cannot exist unless severe repression be adopted against those persons who seek to do mischief and to excite disorder. On our accession to power, we :mind that serious attaint had been made to the prin. ciples above-mentioned, and that the prosperity of the country had been compromised thereby. In order to remedy these evils our attention was first directed towards agriculture, and we relieved the agriculturists from many of the burdens which weighed heavily on that branch of the prosperity of the country. Our atten tion has been since directed to the indirect taxes with which the people are burdened, such as the men opoliee of tobacco, salt, leather, and other duties which the agents of the government collect from the people. We feel convinced that the poor alone support these burdens, and that the rich find means of escaping from them. If we totally suppress all these taxes, as it is our wish to do, the Government could not go en for want of a sum. cient revenue ; and on the other hand, if we allow them to remain, the consequence will be the continua ion of the acts of injustice which God reproves in the Koran. Other means must therefore be found, and we trust that God will make the earth produce the resources which are necessary for us. We have decided on choosing the smallest of the two inconvenience , , and we therefore sup press all the taxes hitherto exacted from our people, with the exception er the tithe of corn and oil, and the tax fixed on olive and palm trees; these taxes being essen tially just, since they are levied on the production of the soil and not on individuals. We also continue the dia (tax on blood), which is a punishment for crime. These taxes will continue to be collected according to regula tions established by us." LLOYD'S SHIPPING.—(,'his Day.)
