All the organised companies withdrew in perfect order. When General M'Dowell found his reserve was retreating it was too late to correct the mistake, and he commanded the main body to fall back, which it did quietly and in order. The men had been fighting all day, without water or food, and were completely exhausted. T hor would have been called back from active service in a a bort time even if the panic had not occurred. Oar' losses have been greatly exaggerated. It is now Well asctertained that the killed fell short of 1,000. The rebels did not follow our retreating forces after Passing Bull Run. Colo nel Einstein, of the Penn. 26th, returned to the ba ttle .field about eleven o'clock on Sunday night, and blc uelt off six pieces of artillery, which he delivered to the commanding officer on the Potomac last evening. He P ePorts the field clear, and not an enemy in sight. The President and Secretary of War are vigorously at Work r e - organising a powerful army. Within the last 24 ilwtir s over 60,000 fresh men, with a number of batteries of artill erY, have been accepted. A number of regiments have rtNe d, and eve r y d a y w ill bring immense reinforcement s t) °le national capital. Ten new regiments will be in Bald -1,_41°4 by evening. The response from every quarter has ' ll zest gratifying and truly patriotic. kt 8 o'clock on Monday morning Centreville was almost T eBett ed. All at the h os pital who could limp started a wa y.

MON.EY _MARKET AND CITY NEWS. CITY, Two o'CLocK. During the past week a more cheerful tone has been apparent in the manufacturing districts, the reduction in the rate of discount having induced greater activity. The woollen trade of Leeds and its immediate neighbourhood has shown increased animation, and at Manchester a moderate business has been done in goods and yarns for the Canadian and German markets. At Lancashire the worsted hosiery business has been more active, and at Not tingham and Hinckley increased employment has been provided for the operatives in the cotton and hosiery branches. The iron trade of South Staf fordshire has been steady, and at Birtaingham, Sheffield and Wolverhampton the transactions in most departments has been on an extended scale. Continued quietude prevailed in the Liverpool Cotton Market on Saturday, bat prices were toler ably steady. The sales were 5,000 bales. Continued quietude pervaded the general Dis count Market, the monthly liquidation of commer cial accounts having failed to create any movement of importance. The inquiry for mercantile pur poses is still very moderate, while the absorption for investments and speculation is also too restricted to create pressure. The current terms for the best bills in the open Market range fully per cent. below the minimum of the Bank of England, and a very small proportion of the mercantile public who require accommodation consequently apply to that establishment. At the meeting of the shareholders of the Bank of Egypt, it was stated that the amount standing to the credit of profit and loss, was £12,479 10s. 4d. from which it was resolved to declare a dividend at the rate of 7 per cent. per annum free of income tax and to carry the balance of .£3,729 10s. 4d. forward to the next account. The debt due from the estate of the late Prince El Hami Pasha has been reduced to £30,000 inclusive of interest, and this balance is amply secured. About £15,000 in gold was sent into the Bank of England on Saturday. On the 20th inst. an instalment of 20 per cent. becomes due on the New Indian Loan. The intelligence from America bas been the principal topic of conversation in the market for Public Securities to-day, and it has caused a little depression, Consols being 90 k for transfer, and aboat 90: for the September account.

The Duke and Mr. Langton will accompany the body to the country seat. The Buckingham Yeomanry Cavalry, of which the deceased was colonel, are to attend the funeral and per form the usual military honours. A COOL DUTCHMAN.—A cunning old Dutchman was a member of the Pennsylvania Legislature some years ago, from county. On one occasion he promised a lobby-member to vote for a certain local measure, but when the measure came up he voted against it, and it was lost. The lobby .member came to him in great wrath, and the following colloquy ensued :—" Sir, you promised to vote for my bill." " Vell," said the Dutch member, " Veil, vat if I did ?" " Well, air, you voted against it." " Vell, vat if I did ?" " Well, sir, you lied 1" " Veil, vat if I did 2 " was the cool reply. WALL-PAINTINGS IN THE PEERS' ROBING ROOM. —The following is the report of the select committee ap pointed to inquire into the progress made in the wall paint ing of the peers' robing room ; and to report when the room will be ready for occupation, or in what manner, if the paintings are not likely to be completed shortly, the room may be rendered available for the use of the House during the sitting of Parliament, and to report to the House : " The committee proceeded to inspect the robing-room with Mr. Herbert. They found a large portion of it occupied by a platform, which, unless reduced in size, or made partly moveable on hinges or otherwise, would render the use of the room for committees impossible. They were informed by Mr. Herbert that the painting on which he is engaged will not be completed before this time next year; but as the work appeared to be considerably advanced they trust that it may be finished sooner. As it is only the first of the eight agreed for, the occupation of the apartments by the House must be indefinitely postponed unless the execu tion of the others is given up, or some arrangement can be made for its use during the progress of the work. The committee represented to Mr. Herbert that the room would only be required for at most four days in the week, from about the middle of February to the end of July, and never before 12 o'clock or after 5 o'clock, and that his wishes and convenience would be consulted as far as pos sible in giving it up to his undisturbed possession for seve ral days together, whenever he might particularly desire it. He was, however, unwilling to agree to any use of it by the house during the progress of his work. Under these circumstances the committee are unwilling to recommend to the house any course of proceeding by which the use of the apartment might be obtained. They trust that during 4 3, 0 recess the question will be carefully considered by Mr. Herber., the Fine Arts Commission ; and that some arrangement may to by which the Lords attending those committees which the room was designed to accommodate may be relieved f rom the g rin , inconyeni elm to which they have now been so long enbjectea.

CORN EXCHANGE. Most of the country markets held on Saturday were moderately supplied with wheat, and the trade, generally, ruled slow, but without leading to any quotable change in prices. The new wheats on offer were mostly of very good quality. Spring corn was scarce, and realised previous rates. The flour trade was steady for all good and fine marks. On the Continent, produce has changed hands slowly, on former terms ; but advices from the United States men tion an upward movement in the value of both wheat and flour. Up to our market, last week, the arrivals of English produce were considerably on the increase. From abroad we received 49,082 quarters of wheat; 1,000 of barley; 44,184 of oats ; 1,1:50, beans ; 1,633, peas ; 5,029, linseed ; 8,748, oil seed ; 4,530, maize; 30, sundry seeds ; and 43,543 barrels of flour. The supply of English wheat on sale here to-day was much less extensive than on Monday last, and the general quality of the samples was only middling. For both red and white qualities, however, the demand ruled slow; nevertheless, the prices obtained were about equal to those realised on this day se'nnight. We did not hear of any samples of new wheat being on the stands ; but the parcels which have come to hand since our last report have been of very good quality, and have weighed about 631bs per bushel. The show of foreignwheat was large,and buyers operated only to meet their immediate requirements. In the quota tions no change of importance took place, compared with last week. Some American, however, was taken for France at ls. advance. The business doing in cargoes afloat was less extensive, but without leading to any quotable alteration in their value. _ _ • For barley we have to report a very limited sale, at about previous currencies. There were a few samples of new on offer, one of which was in very fine condition, and was held at 465. per quarter. The others were worth about 425. per quarter. The malt trade was dull, yet good and fine qualities sup ported previous rates. Good and fine oats fairly maintained last week's currency, otherwise the trade was in a sluggish state, at barely sta tionary prices. New qualities, grown from Canadian seed, were on sale, but were held at very high prices, viz , 345. to 365. per quarter. Beans were a dull inquiry, and the quotations were with difficulty supported. New grey peas were on offer, and commanded 425. per quarter. Old qualities were much neglected at almost nomi nal currencies. Fine marks of flour were steady in price and in fair de mand. Inferior qualities, however, were a dull inquiry on former terms. CURRENCY PER IMPERIAL MEASURE.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET. There was a large number of foreign stock on offer in to day's market, but its general quality was very middling. The arrivals of beasts fret up from our own grazing districts were somewhat extensive, and, for the most part, in fair average condition. Although the attendance of buyers was large, all kinds of beasts moved off slowly, at a decline in the quotations, compared with Monday last, of 2d per 81bs. A few very superior Scots realised 4s 10d, but the general top figure for beef was 4s 8d per 81bs. About 2,000 short horns, crosses, &c., came to hand from Lincoln shire, Leicestershire, and Northamptonshire; 900 various breeds from other parts of England ; 180 Scots and crosses from Scotland; and 200 oxen and heifers from Ireland. We were seasonably well supplied with sheep as to num ber; but, at least, a moiety of them were in comparatively poor condition. Some Downs and half-breds moved off steadily, at full quotations—a few of the former having realised 5s 6d per 81bs; otherwise the mutton trade was in a sluggish state on former terms. Lambs met a dull inquiry, at further depressed rates— viz., from 4s 10d to 5s 8d per 81bs. The supply was tole rably good. There was a slow inquiry for calves, at Thursday's de cline in the quotations. The pork trade was heavy ; nevertheless, prices were supported. Per Sib. to si s. d. s. d.

Some districts, however, promise a very unsatisfactory yield. The business doing in all kinds of hops is very limited, and prices rule to some extent nominal. The duty is estimated at from £llO,OOO to £120,000. Last week's imports in London were 455 bales, wholly from New York. Mid and East Kent pockets 90s to 210 s per cwt. Weald s Sussex Yearlings l2os 210 s ~ . BOROUGH AND SPITALFIELDS. The supply of home .grown potatoes on sale here is moderately good, but the imports of foreign since our last have been confined to a few small parcels. Generally speaking, the trade is in a sluggish state, and prices have a drooping tendency. thaws are quoted at 50s to 70s, and Regents 75s to 1008 per ton. The crops is very favourably spoken of in nearly all parts of Great Britain, and in Ire land we understand that it will probably be a very abun dant one. WOOL. Owing to the reduction in the Bank rate of discount the public sales of colonial wool have been programing with LYNN AND HUNSTANTON RAIL WA E Amongst the bills which have just received the Royal assent, we notice that for the Lynn and Hunstanton Railway ' • an interesting extension which we noticed a short time back from personal inspection of the route, of the Eastern Counties Railway. As it is but about fourteen miles, along level ground by the sea-coast, we may hope the contractors will not be long about it. We want just such purely country spots accessible by railway, and on the coast. And we feel quite confident that Hunstanton, with its beautiful cliffs, pleasing coun try around, old baronial hall, and fine bracing air, will soon become a favourite summer and autumn resort of Londoners who prefer a quiet as well as a very healthy sea-side.

EJECTMENTS IN IRELAND. The Marquis of CLANRICARDE moved for a return of the number of civil bills and of ejectments, and the defences to them, entered and tried at the different courts of quarter sessions of Ireland respectively, commencing with the Easter sessions of 1856 to the Hilary sessions of 1861, both inclu sive ; showing also the number of appeals to courts of assize from the decisions of the chairman of quarter sessions, and the number of such decisions reversed or confirmed at each assizes ; also return of the number of felonies and misde . meanours tried at each quarter sessions, and of convictions or acquittals, within the same period; and also return of the number of appeals from the decisions of magistrates, and of the insolvent cases heard at each quarter sessions ; and called the attention of their lordships to the report of the office of registry of deeds, which he said was in great confusion and demanded instant attention. vV Lord STANLEY of ALDERLEY said it was the inten tion of the Government to institute an inquiry into the state of the office for the registry of deeds in Ireland as early as possible. The motion was then agreed N. EMPLOYMENT OF CHILDREN. The Earl of SHAFTESBURY moved that an humble address be presented to her Majesty, praying her Majesty to give directions that an inquiry he made into the employ ment of children and young persons in trades and manu factures not already regulated by law. Lord STANLEY of ALDERLEY said great improve ments had been made in the regulations affecting young children, and he could assure the noble lord the subject he took so great an interest in would not be lost sight of. The motion was agreed to. The lordships then adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS—(THIS DAY.) The SPEAKER took the chair at two o'clock. NEW MEMBER. Lord F. SCOTT took the oaths and his seat for Selkirk shire. INSPECTORS OF FACTORIES. Mr. COBBETT asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether it was intended to appoint an Inspector of Factories in the place of Mr. Homer ; and whether it was intended to appoint any additional sab-in spectors of factories ? S:r G. GREY said the right hon. baronet who had pre ceded him in the Home-office had found some legal diffi culty in filling up the office held by Mr. Homer as Chief Inspector, but he had appointed four additional sub-in spectors. 101 103 20 21 51 fi 99 101 108 112 105 108 106 108 105 107 122 124 78 80 109 111 90 92 75 77 115 117 110 112 102 104 106 108 97 99 98 98 87 90 88 90 100 102 9,i 10 14 17b 10i 102 75 77 20l 21i 10} 101 15 152 112 114 112 114 135 133 112 114 99 101 1148 153 125 153 71 74 92 96 LINES LEASED AT FIXED RENTALS.

SUN OFFICE, Seven o'clock. BOW-STREET. ANOTHER POST-OFFICE ROBBERY.—William Pearce, a letter-carrier (the eighth within a very short time), was placed at the bar charged with stealing a letter, the pro• pc.rty of the Postmaster- General. Bingham, one of the police officers attached to the Post office, said he went to the residence of the prisoner in Ber mondsey, and found him sitting in the back parlour. On perceiving the officer, Pearce took off his official coat, and threw it do\s n on the bed and ran away. Sinee, another officer, said he found the coat belonging to prisoner. In the pocket was a cover of a letter directed to "Miss Vardon, Foots Cray, Kent," and four other let ters. He afterwards went to Mortlake, and there received information that the prisoner was living at Richmond. He went there and apprehended him. On searching his lodgings a quantity of clothing and articles were found of a very suspicious nature. A letter-carrier named Wright (who was committed for trial from this court on Saturday) lodged with him, and on Pearce being askedto explain how be became possessed of the property he said it all belonged to Wright, and that he knew nothing about it. Thomas Harris, inspector of letter-carriers said the letter from Oxford-street would arrive at the South Eastern Dis trict Office for sorting at about quarter to one. The pri soner was on duty at that time at the office, and a portion of his duty was to sort the letters. The letter in question ought to have been placed amongst the Woolwich. Louisa Manders said she resided ac 29, St. John-street, Clerkenwell, and on the 27th July she enclosed a gilt chain in a letter and addressed it to Miss Varden, a lady residing at Foot's Cray, Kent. The daughter of the last witness proved the posting of the letter at the receiving-house in Oxford-street, kept by Mr. Cooper, about 12 o'clock the same day. The prisoner who said nothing in his defence was fully committed for trial. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. A SCENE AT A PHOTOGRAPHER'S.-Mr. Wm. PiMMS, the keeper of a photographic portrait place at 367, Oxford street, was charged, late on Saturday afternoon, with the following assault : Mrs. Catherine Anthony, the wife of a pay-sergeant of the Fusilier Guards, Wellington Barracks, said she went into the defendant's shop in Oxford-street, about 12 o'clock on Saturday, to have her portrait painted for a brooch. She did not have one painted for her brooch, but had a smaller one done, and she afterwards objected to it, when she was told that it would be all right when it was dry. She after wards returned and said she wanted her money back or a fresh portrait, and after a few words" the defendant struck her on the head, rendering her insensible, and then tore up the portrait and pushed her down stairs, and the defend ant's "doorman" also attacked her and damaged her clothes, and she felt certain that if she had not been rescued she would have lost her life, as the bones of her stays were broken. The defendant then pushed her down Oxford street, and gave her two severe blows in the mouth, loosen ing two of her teeth. Samuel Butterill, of 10, Eagle-street, Holborn, and a witness named George Roberts, both proved seeing de fendant pushing the complainant along Oxford-street, and give her two severe blows in the mouth. Sergeant Howes, 21 C, said he heard some gentlemen say the defendant's conduct was shameful. Defendant said the complainant went away well satisfied with her portrait, and afterwards came back and began " cutting away." He did give her a shove, and his band might have gone in her face. Wm. Sellman, defendant's " doorman," was called, but the only material thing he proved was that defendant did shove complainant away from the door, and that a mob collected. The Magistrate (Mr. Maude)—What is this place. Sergeant Howes—R is a photograph shop, and every body who passes has a portrait thrust in his or her face. The magistrate said he had no doubt the defendant had used a great deal of unnecessary violence. The defendant was seen pushing the complainant violently along the streets, and there was no wonder if bystanders collected. Did he (defendant) think this was to be tolerated ? It was a gross outrage on a respectable female, and defendant had not mended his case by insinuating the complainant was in toxicated. Ile had no doubt dono that to create a preju dice. The defendant was then fined £5, or imprisonment in I default. 2111 S DAY'S ShIPPING. LONDON, Aug. s.—Wind this day at noon, South • Westerly; strong breeze, and fine weather.

The hon. member concluded his re marks by observing that next session he thought he should move for a committee to inquire into the whole subject. Sir G. GREY said it would be better to defer any re marks upon the question until the hon. member moved for the committee. ADJOURNMENT OF THE HOUSE. Col. FRENCH asked at what time the house would meet to-morrow. The noble lord at the head of the Government, who was not now present, had promised an answer relative to the Galway subsidy, and the prorogation he understood would take place about two o'clock.
