CITY, Two O'CLOCK. During the last few days the operations in the Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets have not been of a very extensive character ; prices, however, for most of the principal staples have been well sustained owing to the reduction in the rate of discount. Tea has continued quiet, at previous rates; for sugar there has been a fair demand, and moderate transactions have been effected in coffee at late quotations. Rice, spices, and fruit have sho wn li ttle variation ; and tallow has been in more demand for both present and forward delivery, at slightly enhanced quotations. A large amount of business was transacted in the Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday, the sales hay ing reached 20,000 bales, about 10,000 of which Were for expert and on speculation, and an advance of Ad. per lb. was established en all descriptions, e wlng to the news received from America. A further addition of £27,000 in gold, principally foreign was made to the stock of bullion is the - "silk of England yesterday. The pre c i se amount o f spec i e b roug ht by the Gr eat Britain from Victoria was £328,760. There is still a moderate inquiry for discount acc ommodation, a n d th e rates remain without the slightest alteration of importance. T he liquidators of the North of Europe Steam t o avigation C ompany h e ld th e i r genera l meeting Le-c laY, when the report of which the following is a n extract was a d opte d An open account with t he Eastern Counties Railway Company, contain ing many disputed items, which might have proved t he source of much litigation, has, after prolonged ne gotiation and mutual concession, been finally and liquid a t ors agree d o n. In their last report, the ' i cluidator s informed the shareholders that the fac tory at Lowestoft had been sold for £3,550. Upon g oi ng into the title, the purchasers took cer tain legal objections, which prevented the completion of the sale. It is hoped, however, that all difficulties are now got over. The purchase nioney will probably be sufficient to cover all the liabilities of the company, in which case the entire balance will be divisible among the shareholders, and produce a further return of between 6s. and 7s. Per share." The liquidators requested that the shareholders wouid appoint some person or persons to audit the accounts (which was done) so that after the sale of the factory has been completed, a dividend may be declared. In the meantime, a cash balance is earning interest at the Union Bank. Very little variation has taken place to-day in the market for Public Securities, and the dealings have been restricted. More firmness, however, no wprevails than was perceptible at the close of bu siness yesterday afternoon—Consols being 9091 f or money, and 904 1 for the account in September.

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE THRGUGH ♦ DRUNKEN HUSBAND. —Ann Wilson, of 12A, William and Mary-yard, St. James's, was charged with attempting to commit suicide by taking precipitate powder. The on of the accused said his mother sent a younger brother to a surgeon's for a powder, which he saw her put in some tea. He afterwards told his father, and the doctor was sent for. Mr. Slight, surgeon, of 25, Brewer-street, said he was called to see the accused, and found she had taken a quan tity of precipitate powder. He administered an emetic, and afterwards antidotes. He asked the accused if she was not sorry, and she said she was not, and woull do it again, as she was miserable, having a drunken husband.

THE PRICE OF GOLD The quotation of gold at Paris is about 3 per mille and the short exchange on London is 25.3 Th per £1 sterling. On comparing these rates with the English Mint price of £3 17s. 100. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is about 3-10ths per cent. dearer in London than in Paris. By advices from Hamburg the price of gold is 428 per mark, and the short exchange on London is 13.84 per £1 sterling. Standard gold at the English Mint price is, therefore, about 9-10ths per cent, dearer in London than in Hamburg. The course of exchange at New York on London for bills at 60 days' sight is 1061 to 107 per cent., which, when compared with the Mint par between the two countries, shows that the exchange is against England. But, after making allowance for loss of interest and charges of transport, the present rate leaves no profit on sending gold to the United States Lady Arolesworth has lerr, town for the Continent. Mr. Vance, M.P., and Mrs. Vance have left the Queen's Hotel, Upper Norwood, for the Continent. TESTIMONIAL TO MR. CROOK, Ex-M.P.—The operatives connected with the bleaching, dyeing, and finish ing works of the Bolton district have presented a testimonial to Mr. Crook, ex-manaber for Bolton, in recognition of his services in connection with the bill popularly known as the " Bleachers' Short-time Act." The presentation took place on Saturday evening—the testimonial consisting of a handsome and costly timepiece. Mr. Crook, who was re ceived with great enthusiasm, expressed his entire confi dence in the success of the measure, contending that it would prove beneficial alike to employers and employed. SUDDEN DEATH.—On Sunday morning no small excitement was occasioned in the parish of Messing, near Colchester, Essex, by the sudden decease of the Rev. T. Henderson, the highly esteemed vicar, while in the perform ance of Divine service in the parish church. The rev. gentleman, who had for some time been in a declin ing state of health, was in the act of administering the sacrament of the Lord's Supper, when, to the alarm of the communicants, he fell senseless upon the floor of the altar. The churchwardens and other friends imme diately rendered assistance, and the body was conveyed to tae vicarage, but a short distance from the church, when it was discovered that life was extinct. It is supposed that apoplexy was the immediate cause of death, but that will be ascertained at the coroner's inquest about to be held. The rev. gentleman, who was instituted to the living in 1 28, was a rural dean of Colchester and prebendary of St. Paul's, and was generally held in high repute among the clergy of his district as a man of erudition and high scholas tic attainments. The living, which is but small, is in the gift of tho Earl of Verulam. TARDY REPENTANCE.—The Lombardo of Milan publishes the following curious letter, addressed to the Pope by an old woman, once a celebrated dancer :—At the advanced age of 78 I humble myself in the dust, and bit terly deplore having occasioned many scandals by dancing in theatres during a period of 25 years, and having heaped up enjoyment and riches by the practice of that diabolical art. At this time, when the Roman Government is en during such great anguish, I venture, unworthy sinner as I am, to come feebly to its aid with the trifling sum of 500 Austrian livres,which I offer as a contribution to St. Peter's penny, imploring at the same time his blessing and pryers for myself, my deceased father , my daughter Charlotte a , and her son Eustagio and Elizabeth his wife, and all the chil dren they may have, and finally for all my children and posterity, to the end that the good may triumph and the wicked perish. His Holiness' humiliated servant and sin ner GIUSEPPA TALANDRA, Ex-first dancer of the Ancient Cisalpine Republic (sic)." " Among the coming journalistic novelties with which London has been made acquainted during these last few days, per advertisement and extensive circular distribu tion, is anew weekly conservative paper to be called the True Conservative. It will rejoice in the contributions of some of the ablest Conservatives, and is to be written a is Saturday Review—powerfully, and full of fact, that is to say. But more especially its columns are to be devoted to business matters—the organisation of the party—to join where there is now a severing—to lop off if there needs to be lopping off —and to record the working, and aid the working, of the very able machinery which at present exists in Conserva tism for registering, electioneering, and other affairs." — Court Journal.

LION MAN-EATERS.—WiId beasts of every de scription abounded in these parts, and we found them daring to temerity. The Omuramba was besides haunted by lion man-eaters. In the previous year these monsters had suc ceeded in carrying off two men ftom Mr. Green's camp when on his return from :be disastrous Ovambo expedition. I have no particular dread of lions, but I do fear and dread such a monster as a man-eater. Set me face to face with an enemy, be he white or black, beast or man, in the light of day, and I will take some odds against him. Bat a skulking, sneaking, poaching night-prowler, whose cat like motions and approach no ear can detect--whose mus cular strength exceeds that of the strongest ruminating animal—who will pass through your cattle and leave them untouched in order to feast on human flesh—is, I think, a creature which may reasonably inspire terror.—Anders so n' a Okavango .Rive', THE CIVIL TV,. 14 1 - :\ A MERI THE DEFEAT AT MANASSAS. (From the Correspondent of the Times.) WASHINGTON, JULY 19. The army of the North is fairly moving at last, and all the contending voices of lawyers and dispu tants will be speedily silenced by the noise of the cannon. Let no one suppose that the war will be decided in one or two battles, or conclude from any present successes of the Federalists that they wilt not meet with stern opposition as they advance. The Confederates uniformly declared to me after their failure to take either Faneini-hall or the Capitol they would wait in Virginia and entice the Federalists into certain mysterious traps, where they would be " destroyed to a man." There is great reliance placed on masked bat teries in this war, and the country is favourable to their employm en t hat nothing can prove more completely the unsteady character of the troops than the reliance which is placed on the effects of such works, and indeed there is reason to think that there have been panics on both sides—at Great Bethel as well as at Laurel hill. The telegraph ie faster than the post, and all the lucubrations of to-day may be falsfled by the deeds of to-morrow. The Senate and Congress are sitting in the Capitol, within the very hearing of the guns and the sight of the smoke of the conflict which is no NIP raging in Virginia. Senators and Con— gress men are engaged in disputations and speeches, while soldiers are working out the problem in their own way, and it is within the range of possibility that a disastrous battle may place the capital in the hands of the Confederates; and the news which has just come in that the latter have passed Bull's Run, a small river which flows into the Potomac below Alexandria, crossing the railroad from that place, is a proof that Fairfax Court-house was abandoned for a reason. It is stated that the Confederates have been repulsed by the 69th (Irish) Regi ment, and the 79th (Scotch) New York Volun teers, and as soon as this letter has been posted I shall proceed to the field (for the cam paign has now fairly, commenced) and ascertain the facts. If the Confederates force the left of IlPDowell's army they will obtain possession of the line to Alexandria, and may endanger Washington itself. The design of Beauregard may have been to effect this very object while he engaged the bulk of the Federalists at Manassas Junction, which you must not confound with Manassai Gap. The re ports of guns were heard this morning in the direc tion of the Junction and it is probable that M'Dowell, advancing from Centreville, has met the enemy prepared to dispute his passage. There are some stories in town to the effect that General Tyler has met with a severe check on the right, but the ad vance of 111‘Dowell was very cautious, and he would not let his troops fall into the ambuscades against which they have been especially forewarned. Let speculation, which to-morrow's news must outstrip, cease here, and let us examine the composition of the forces actually engaged with the Confederates. The head of the naval and military forces of the United States is the President, in theory and in the practice of appointments, but Lieutenant-General W. Scott is " Commanding-in-Chief" of the United States' army. His staff consists of Lieut.-Colonel E. D. Townsend, Assistant Adjutant-General, Chief of the Staff; Colonel H. Van Ransselaer, A.D.C. (Volunteer) ; Lieutenant-Colonel G. W. Cullum, United States' Engineer, A.D.C. ; Lieut.-Colonel Edward Wright, United States' Cavalry, A.D.C. Lieutenant-Colonel Schuyler Hamilton, Military Secretary.
