MONEY MAR,KET AND commrazoix:, ITUELLIGENCE. CITY, Two o'CLooK.. The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday closed quietly but firmly, and prices of all descriptions were unchanged. The t3ales were estimated at 7,000 bales, comprising 5,000 Americans at various prices; 40 Pernam and Mara nham, at 6gd. to 70. ; 80 Bahia, at 6gd. to 61d. ; 200 Egyptian, at 7id. to Bfd. ; and 1,500 Surat, at 43 d. to sid. per lb. The Share Market exhibitea an upward tendency. The Colonial Produce Markets this week have been quiet, the quan City offered publicly having been limited. For sugar a steady inquiry has pre vailed, and the prices have remained firm. Yes terday there was a :slight improvement, owing to the full quotAtions realised at the Dutch sales. Coffee has been steady, but quiet. Tea has commanded previous rates, and the dealings in rice have been limited. For saltpetre there has been very little inquiry ; but spices at former prices have been purchased to a moderate extent. In tallow there has not been much business transacted. The p iblic sales of foreign and colonial wool are proceeding quietly ; but no improvement has taken place in the prices realised, and the attendance of the foreign dealers has diminished. Accounts from the Paris Grain Market report an active business in wheat of choice qualities, but very little doing in second sorts, with a slight re duction in prices. On the whole, however, the quotations during the present week have been main tained with firmness, notwithstanding the favour able accounts of the crops throughout France. It is supposed that the supply will be insufficient to meet the demaud, which will be increased on ac count of the troops returned from the seat of war. Choice wheat is offered at 571. to 59f. per kilo gramme, good sorts 55f. to 56f., English wheat at 56f. to 571., and white American ditto has been sold at 50f. In flour there is a difficulty in selling to the retailers at the rates of last week for delivery, and bargains for August and September are. not easily closed at full quotations. The factors yesterday declared sales of 3,906 sacks, at prices ranging from 81f. 68c. to 102 f. per kilos. In rye there are not many important transactions, and prices have a downward tendency at 31f. to 32f. per hectolitre. Barley is not much in demand, without any alteration in previous prices. Oats are more in request, and quotations are improving. The Funds have been rather flatter this morning, .owing principally to paucity of dealing. The fur ther creation of stock by the payment of the Loau instalment yesterday, however, has no doubt had an unfavourable influence. Consols have been 95i and 95a 4 for money, while for account they have ruled dull at 951. The New 3 per Cents. have been dealt in at 96a and the Reduced 96 to 96i. Exchequer Bills remain at 21s. to 245. premium, and the Bouds at 1001 /. Foreign Securities are generally well supported. Turkish 6 per Cents. are 104/. Spanish Threes 44i to 45, and the Deferred 23'S to 24. Russian 4i per Cents. are quoted 954 to 99. Sardinian Fives 921, Grenada New Active 20k, the do. De ferred 70, and Danish 5 per Cents. 105. Venezuela are 334, to 34, and the Deferred 142, Dutch 4 per Cents. have been 971. There is a meeting to-day of the Venezuelan Bondholders, at which a very voluminous report will be presented, containing a full history of the proceedings taken by the Committee of South American Bondholders for the obtainment of jus tice at the hands of the Government of the Repub lic. The terms now offered for an arrangement of the debt are considered inadequate, and are there fore not likely to be accepted. The following are the nominal prices of Foreign Stocks:—Grenada Deferred Bonds, 7,± ; Mexi can, 231; Peruvian, 813; ditto 3 per Cents, 57 9 ; Portuguese 4 per Cents., 49 51 ; Russian 5 per Cents., 111 13 ; ditto 4 1 , per Cents., 98 100 ; Spanish 3 per Cents., 44 51 ; ditto Deferred, 23H; ditto Certificates, 6 Y ; ditto Passive, 6i 7. Messrs. D. Bell, Son, and Co. rep rt that the market for American Securities during the past week has been active, and a good business has been done at improved prices. State stocks ars scarce, and offered only in small amounts ; whilst the railroad bonds are more freely offered, and the better descriptions continue to be purchased for investment. Iledeetnable.

ATTEMPTED SIIICIDE.—A thin, diminutive man, dress ed in a fustian suit of clothes, who gave his name as Thomas James, 30 years of age, and a weaver by trade, was placed at the bar before Mr. Alderman Wire, charged with attempting to destroy himself by throwing himself over London.bridge. Thomas Turner deposed that he was sitting in one of the recesses of London-bridge last night about a quarter to twelve o'clock, when he saw the prisoner cross the bridge in a very suspicions mariner, and begin to run. Witness followed him and saw him jump on the parapet, but before he could throw himself over into the water witness came up t I him and seized him by the collar, and succeeded in holding him until a police man came up. The prisoner, who was much excited, and evidently bent on a cooler, struggled very much to rid himself of the grasp of the witness and the policeman, but they ultimately succeeded in getting him to the right side of the parapet, and then conveyed him to the station-house. The prisoner, in answer to the charge, said he bad no home nor any work, and that he was in great distress. He thought it very hard that being a young man he could get no employment. Alderman Wire—lf I let you go will you give me your solemn promise that you will not attempt your life again ? Prisoner—l should like to have your worship's opinion if a young man like me ought to be slit up in a workhouse and be unable to get work when I think 1 ought to have plenty? Mr. Alderman Wire—Every man can get work if be wishes. I den't believe in those who go about day after day saying they can get no work. I believe in a ma jority of instances it is their own fault that they have no employment. The prisoner refusing to give the required promise, was remanded for a week. GUILDHALL. ANARTFUL DODGER.--George Williams, a lad and crippled, was placod at the bar, before Sir J. Mu4grove, charged with being concerned, with other boys not in custody, with robbery from- the person and stealing a purse containing 16s. 6d. A young lady , named Dare, deposed that she was passing through Smithfield, about the middle of the day, when she was suddenly surrounded by a number of ragged and filthy little boys. who impeded her progress, -and whilst so surround. ed, one of them turned her pocket inside out, and took out her purse, containing 16s. 6d., which he passed to the prisoner, when they all ran off. She fol lowed the prisoner until he was stopped by a gentleman, when she gave him into custody, but on searching him neither the money nor the purse was found. The purse and money were subsequently picked up near where the young lady was robbed. Leonard, one of the the detectives, said that the pri- Boner had gained his livelihood this way for the last two or three years. His mode of operation was to stand at a short distance from his companions, and when they succeeded in picking a lady or gentleman's pocket, to make up to them and receive the produce as they passed him, and from bang a cripple was not suspected of being in league with the thief and his other companions. As a matter of course, if either of the other boys was appre hended, no stolen property was found on him. The prisoner was committed to Holloway for three months and hard labour. MARKET NEWS.—(This Day.) CORN EXCHANGE. Increased supplies of English wheat have come to hand since Monday, and the show of samples to-day was season ably good. For all kinds we had a very dull trade, and prices are the turn in favour of buyers. Upwards of 27,000 qrs. of foreign wheat have come to hand this week. Even the finest parcels were very dull, and to have effected sales town rates must have been submitted to. Floating cargoes of grain were dull. Barley and malt realised full prices, with a moderate demand. We were extensively supplied with oats, which moved off slowly, at a decline of fully 6d per qr. Beans, peas, and flour were dull, at barely late rates. Oats. now 110 1,530 5,860 I 27,820 6720 brls scks. Clitrb Nibition SUN OFFICE, Seven o'Clock, IPSWICH RACES.—(This Day.)

SHIP AGROUND.—Loss OF LIFE.--An American ship, the Forest Oak, with a cargo of timber for Price and Co,, of Gloucester, has met with a mishap in the estuary of the Severn at Sharpness Point. The vessel had brought a cargo of nearly a thousand tons of deals from St. Stephen's, and was entering the Gloucester and Berkeley ship canal at Sharpness to proceed to Glou cester, when, having started too early on the tide, she struck. She was being towed by two steamers, and when she struck on the :and bank she heeled over, throwing her deck cargo overboard, and some of her crew with it. One poor fellow, who was drowned, was picked up some time after in a "putt," a large wicker basket used to catch salmon. The matter is under in vestigation. _ On Friday morning last, a Mr. Charlton, a professional harlequin, who appeared at Drury-lane in the last Christmas pantomime, died in the Whitechapel work howe, leaving his wife and children in a very miserable condition. The circumstance was recorded in The Sun the same evening, and it immediately attracted the at tention of some of the gentlemen forming the committee of the Fielding Fund, now in process of creation from the proceeds of the late amateur pantomime, for the prompt relief of distressed literary and theatrical persons. A member of the committee personally visited the wretched residence of the poor people, and within con siderably less than four-and-twenty hours of the publi cation of the paragraph, an arrangement was made for the decent burial of the ill•fated harlequin, the immediate necessities of his family were provided for, and steps t4lmi for the judicious administration of a little pc ri( al( relief, until they should have an opportunity of earnteg sufficient to maintain themselves.

The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at fire o'clock. NEW PEER. Lord WENSLEYDALE took the oaths and his seat as a Baron of the United Kingdom. His lordship was in troduced by the Duke of Argyll and Lord Lyndhurst. SIR C. BARRY AND THE PALACE AT W ESTMINSTER. Lord LYNDHURST presented a petition from a certain individual, the patentee of a certain solution, praying► to have it applied generally to the new building at Westminster, and stating that it bad been applied to a portion of the stone work on the exterior of the palace, and bad been fund most suc cessful. The noble and learned lord asked the Lerd Chancellor whether the Government bad in con templation to introduce any law for the amendment of the law of patents ? The LORD CHANCELLOR said that he had the subject under consideration, but he could not say when he would be able to introduce any bill on the matter. PAROCHIAL SCHOOLS (SCOTLAND) BILL. The Duke of BUCCLEUCH begged to ask the noble Duke opposite what course he intended to pursue with respect to the schoolmasters who would be thrown out of employment in consequence of the passing of the bill. The Duke of ARGYLL said he had no fear that the people of Scotland would not allow the schoolmasters to become destitute. The answer to the noble duke's question, as far as the present session was concerned, was obvious—nothing could be done. INDIA. Lord MONTEAGLE presented a petition com• plaining of the mode of administering justice in the pro vinces of Bengal, and of the organisation of the police force in that country. The noble lord entered at some length into the grievances complained of, and stated the police force was so corrupt as to render a re modelling of the whiffle force absolutely necessary., The Marquis of CLANRWARDE moved for, certain returns relative to the assessment of rent-free estates in India, and the covenanted and uncovenanted civil ser vice of the East India Company ; the law exPenditure of the Company in England, and the condition of the allocy ance made to the deposed Rajah of Coorg. [LEFT SPEAKING.] HOUSE OF COMMONS—(This Evening.) The SPEAKER took the chair at the usual hour. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The Cairness Estate Bill was read a third time and paused Davidson's Divorce Bill was also read a third time and passed. NEW WRITS. On the motion of Mr. HAYTtR, a new writ was ordered to issue for Kerry in the room of Lord Castle rosse, who has accepted the office of Comptroller of her Majesty's Housebold. A new writ was also ordered to issue for Nottingham, in the room of Mr. E. Strutt, who has accepted the stewardship of Hempholm, in the county of York. EAST INDIA ROA.DS. Mr. KENNEDY moved for copies of minutes and correspondence between the late Governor-General and the Home Departments of the Government of India, in reference to the project of the Hindostan and Tibet Road, with the several reports of Major Kennedy and Lieutenant Briggs relating thereto, and an account of the expense attending construction thereof; and, of re ports of engineer; and an account of the expenditure incurred in reference to the construction of the new road between Kalka and the military sanitary station of Dukshai.—Ordered. CAMP AT ALDERSHOT. Mr. LOCKE KING moved for a return showing the total number of acres purchased by the nation at Alder shot, and the total cost of the land so purchased ; the cost of the huts and other buildings in each year, in de tail, and of any other expense connected with the per manent establishment of the camp; the total number of troops stationed at Aldershot in each year, distinguish ing cavalry, artillery, engineers, infantry, militia, and Foreign Legion ; the number .of the reviews at Alder shot in each year, and the days on which they were held ; the quantity of ammunitio❑ expended at each review ; the quantity of ammunition expended i❑ experi ments in each ye.ir ; the total quantity of ammunition expended in each year ; and the amount paid for food and forage for the troo?s in each year.—Ordered. MAIL TO THE CAPE AND INDIA. In reply to an 110. N. MEMBER, Mr. WILSON said that five tendon had been made to the Government for the performance of this contract. One offer was for 45,000/. to commence on the Ist of October, the second Was for 42,000/. to commence in three months ; the third was for 34,0001. to commence in two months ; the fourth was for 27,500/. to com mence on the let of October ; and the fifth was for 28,000/. to commence on the Ist August. Thera was some omission in the advertisement for tha tenders with respect to the India part of the contract, and the Go. vernment therefore decided to accept the fifth tender for the sum of 28,000/., which was to be increased to 41,000/. for the carrying out the transmission of the [nails to the Mauritius and India. The term of the contract was for five years. THE AUSTRALIAN MAILS. Mr. H. G. LANGTON asked whether it was in tended, previously to their entering upon the service, to test the speed of the steam vessels proposed to be employed under a recent contract in the conveyance of the Australian mails, seeing that by the copies of the tenders now before the House the time occupied by the voyage from Sues to Melbourne will require a speed of 11 or 114 knots an hour, whereas the vessels tendered for the performance of the duty are set down at a speed of 91 knots per hour only Mr. WILSON said it was not intended to test the speed of the vessels. The parties had bound themselves in very heavy penalties for the performance of the con tract at a certain rate of speed, and it had been intimated to them that those penalties, in the event of their non performance, would most certainly not be relinquished. It was therefore, he apprehended, for the parties them selves to ascertain the speed of the vessels it was in tended to employ in the service. SATURDAY SITTING. On the motion of Sir G. GREY it was agreed that the house meet to•morrow at 12 o'clock for the reception of bills from the other house. Mr. H. G. LANGTON asked the Secretary to the Treasury whether, in order to ensure the regular per formance of the contract for conveying the Mails be tween Suez and Australia, any clause will be introduced by which the contract will be forfeited in the event of the service not being performed within the maximum number of days tendered for, viz, 39 days outwards, and 35 days homeward Mr. WILSON said that if the contract was not per formed within the time specified, the contractors would be liable to heavy penalties; but there would be a general clause inserted into the contract, the same as in all others, that it would be put an end to by the Govern ment at any time they may be dissatisfied with the per formance of it by the contractors. OFFICIAL PATENTS. Mr. MURROUGII asked the Chancellor of the Ex chequer whether the opinion of the law officers of the Crown had been given respecting the new practice of Secretaries of State not completing their patents, and thus escaping the payment of stamp duty on appoint ments under the Crown ; if so, whether thatopinion could be laid on the table of the house ; also, whether, for the future, persons appointed to the offices of Chief Secretaries of State would be required to follow the old custom of taking out their patents ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that the usual precedents in this case would be fol lowed. It was the intention of the Secretary of State, who had not taken out patents, to do so. He de dined laying on the table of the house the opinions of the law officers of the Crown on the subject, it being unusual. PUBLIC BUSINESS. Mr. DISRAELI moved for a return of the number of public bills, and their titles, the orders for which, in any of their stages, have been discharged during the present session, and the date of the discharge of each of such orders. The right hon. gentleman said he had not brought forward this motion in order to ask the house to pronounce a judgment against her Majesty's Government, but to di rect the attention of hon. members during the recess to the manner in which the public business was conducted, in the hope of their being able to suggest a course of action for the future that would promote its facilitation. The right hon. gentleman then referred to the year 1848, when a similar motion was brought for ward, and in consequence of the business, conducted during an unparalleled long session of 10 mouths, being unsatisfactory to the country. On that occasion two reasons were given for it —one, that the forms of the house were to blame ; and secondly, that it was owing to too frequent discussions. No doubt, with regard to the former, it was probably to be accounted for from its being a new Parliament, but he thought frequent discussions ought not to be urged against the transaction of business, when it was remembered that this house was a place for freedom of speech on all matters that Caine before them. The right honourable gentleman reviewed what was done in consequence to remedy the evils complained of, the result of which was that it was shown that the reasons assigned were untenable. He admitted that a Minister of the Crown ought not to be too prone to legislation, and when he attempted it he ought to be certain he could deal with the subject satisfabto rily. The noble lord at the head of the Government could not say the house had this session legislated enough, and that there were no pressing questions of great importance that required their attention, because be had voluntarily introduced in this session to the no tice of the house not only one question of great import ance, but a great number of more importance than had any other minister that bad filled his place, neither could be avail himself of the plea that the country being at war, Parliament bad no right to - expect any legislative proposals being made, because ,the noble lord at the commencement of the session, when the country was in a state of war, recom mended, through her Majesty's gracious speech, many subjects connected with the internal affairs of the country, nor could he plead there were important nego tuitions going on which prevented legislation. The right hon, gentleman then proceeded to enter on the questions that had been before the notice of the house during the session. (LEFT SPEAKING.) LONDON GAZETTE—(This Evening.) WHITEHALL, JULY 23.

THE MUTINY AT NENAGIL-SENTENOR OF DEATH. The Limerick papers announce that the general court martial at Nenagh closed on Monday, when four of the „Tipperary Militia engaged in the late mutiny were sen- Iteneed to death, and two were ordered to be tried by the civil authorities. The finding of the court has been transmitted to the Commander-in-Chief for her Majesty's final decision. The conduct of some of the Tipperary Militia on the unfortunate occasion alluded to was very bad indeed, but there is no good object to be gained in not candidly admitting that there are mitigating circumstances in their favour. •It was not a deliberately-planned mutiny, in the ordinary meaning, of the tette, but a violent and spontaneous outburst of a body of men who were threa tened with gross injustice. If the chief rioters, or " mutineers,' must be punished for example sake, the authorities who provoked-them should,not escape from, at least, public condemnation. No, no ; these men cannot be executed. The country would not permit such a sentence to be carried out. The Nenagh, Guardian states that Private Rielly, of the 47th Regiment, who was shot in the barrack-yard during the late disturbance in Nenagb, is dangerously ill, without any hope of his recovery. The poor fellow is suffering intense agony ; the ball, after entering over the hip joint, descended to the bladder, where it is lodged. 'Rielly was at the taking of the Redan, and has a medal for his services in the East. DEATH OF THE ROMAN CATHOLIC BISHOP OF HERBY.
