111 . 0NEY MARKET'i AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. The inquiry for discount accommodation this morning has not been so active as during the few preceding days, and an easier tone is therefore now perceptible. The rates are 314 p-r cent. fur the negotiation of the best commercial bills. In the foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon there was no change of importance. There was a further influx of £30,000 in bar gold at the Bank yesterday. The arrival of specie ann'.unced to-day comprise £43,229 by the America from New Yurk, and £1,198 by the Ripo❑ from Alexandria. A❑ important undertaking is the London Cocoa nut Fibre Company, recently brought before the notice of the investing classes. It purposes the purchase of the letters patent for the exclusive manufacture, according to Mr. Davies' invention, of articles from the fibre of the cocoa-nut. It is averred that not only does the unique manipuiative process of the patent impart to the fabric a better pile than the old mode, but also that its durability is greater and its cost considerably reduced. The chief articles manufactured from the fabric are mats and other descriptions of floor-cloths, and it is very correctly presumed that their greater cheapness will materially extend the now increasing demand for domestic and other uses. The capital required fur purchasing the patent, looms, and plant, and for working the business on a large scale, is £20,000, to be raised by £1 shares. Another large hotel is to be erected by the Rich mond-hill Hotel Cowpony, which has just been announced with a nominal capital of £lOO,OOO, the first issue consisting of 5,000 shares of £lO each. The directors have secured the property known as the Ashburnham Lodge, upon which site they in tend to erect the new esttsblishment. .Reference is made in the , prospectus to the large profits de rivable from this description of enterprise, and to the attractions Richmond affords for the permanent and temporary residence of Londoners and others. Interest at the rate of 5 per cent. is to be paid on the shares until the opening of the hotel. Two o'CLocK. At Paris his morning, according to Mr. Reuter's telegram, the French 3 per Cent. Rtntes were at 68f. 20c.—Very flit. The suspensio❑ has been announced of Mes ra. F. H. Matthews, of the City and County B uk, Hereford. Very little alteration is apparent to-day in the market for the En.thsh Funds, Console being 928f0r transfer, and 921 d for the account. The trans actions have been very circumscribed.

Lon don, Chatham, and Dover, have improved £l, North Western, 10s., and Siuth Eastern, ss. The Foreign and Colonial undertakings remain dull.

WILFUL DAMAGE AND BRUTAL ASSAULT.—WiIIiam Wyatt, of 21, James-street, Oxford-strett, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with wilfully breaking a pane of glass and a bottle of spruce, or the value of £3, the pro perty of Mr. Frederick William Bevan, of the Pelham Arms, George-street, Grosvenor-square, and also with assaulting P lice-Sergeant Charles Cole, 13 C. The prisoner, while in a state of intoxication, went into Mr. Bevan's house and created a peat disturbance, and refused to leave when desired to do so, at the same time making use of a most fearful expres-ion towards Mr. Bevan. Mr. Bevan then put the prisoner out of th house, and while doing so the prisoner tore Mr. Bevan's shirt from his back. The prisoner then sat on the kerb, took off his boot, and with it deliberately broke a window and a bottle of soruce, doing damage to the extent of £3, Police-constable 166 C then went up and took the prisoner into custody for the wilful damage, when he resiged going to the station, and on Sergeant Cole going to the assistance of the constable the prisoner kicktd him two or three time's in a delicate part, causing him intense pain. With great difficulty the prisoner, who behaved in the most violent manner, was got to the station. Mr. Tyrwhitt committed the prisoner for a month for the wilful damage, and 21 days for the assault on the ser geant. Prisoner is known to the police as the constant companion of a ticket-of-leave man. ROBBING FURNISHED LODGINGS --John Taylor, a cabinetmaker, and Emma Taylor, believed to be his wife, were charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with stealing a bed, two blankets, two pillows, and other articles, the property of their landlord, Mr. Withers, of 11, Booth-place, Wells street. The female prisoner was seen leaving the house with a bundle, and this led to the discovery that the prisoner had taken away a large quantity of things. Sergeant Kay, 24 C, who took the prisoner into custody, said that the pawnbrokers with whom the articles were pledged, were not in attendance; and Mr. Ty rwhitt re manded the prisoners for a few days. MARY EBONE. ATTEMPTED MURDER OF A WOMAN BY THROWING HER OUT OF WINDOW.—John Hillier, a smith, .9, Car lisle•street, Lisson-grove, was charged with the following outrageous conduct towards a tenant of his. Charlotte Burden said—l live on the first floor from room No. 30, Little Carlisle-street. Last evening 1 was sitting in my room having tea, and a friend with me, when Mr. Hillier, who is my landlord, came in and demanded his r nt. I told him as it was not due till to-day (Wednesday) I did not teel disposed to pay him. He then said, "If you don't go out of the do ,r you shall go out of the window " I was in the act of cutting some brt ad and butter, when he seized the knife from me and cut me with it on the back of my hand. It was bound up. After this he took half the sash out of the window, and taking me by the waist forced me through the opining, my head and back hanging over into the street. He still kept pushing me out, when my friend caught held of my legs, and held me as I was hanging head downwards. I don't remember anything more. May Anne Imbers, living opposite to prosecutrix, bear ing a noise, luoked up, and • saw her (prosecutrix) hanging head downwards She called the police. Harriett Osborne said she was having tea will prose cuttix, when prisoner came in and threw her out of the win dow, and had she not held her, she must have fallen upon the pavement. Charles Tufrey, 215 D, said at half-past 8 last night I was called to Carlisle-street, and saw her hanging out of window. Myself and several more stood underneath to catch her iu case she fell. When she was rescued she was quite insensible and black in the face. The prisoner had been drinking but knew well what he was abou Mr. Mansfield said that prisoner had as nearly as possi ble committed murder, but fortunately as you have not in flicted any very serious iejury upon the young woman, I shall convict you under the Aggrav•.ted Assaults Acts, in a penal , y of £2O or six months imprisonment. I also re quire you to enter in your own recognisance in the sum of £lO, and find two sureties in £2O each, to keep the peace for a further term of six nionths. THAMES. WILD SPORTS IN THE EAST.—Elizabeth Macarthy, a strapping Irish woman, of the class called unfortunate, was brought before Mr. Woolrych charged with biting off and swallowing a portion of the index finger or the left hand• of her countrywoman, Ann Donnelly, the wife of Michael Donnelly, a labourer. The parties live in a very notorious den called Palmer's- Folly, itatcliff-highway, where numerous robberies and outrages on sailors hive been committed. The two women quarrelled last night, and from words they got to blows, and pummeled each other unmercifully. All Palmer's folly and Perseverance-place sent forth their degraded and criminal inmates to witness this revolting sight. The women fought like furies, and the prisoner—the strongest of the two—got the other down, scracthed her face with her nails, pulled the hair from her head, and bit off the end of her finger. The complainant appeared in a mutilated condition, hex face was torn, her eyes blackened, and her left hand was bandaged. Mr. John Brown Ross, physician and surgeon, stat , d that he dressed the wounds of the prosecutrix. The upper part of one of her fingers was bitten off. He had been trying to get the flesh to unite over the bone for the pur pose of avoiding the necessity of amputation of the finger lower down, and he hoped to succeed. The woman was not out or danger. Mr. Woolry eh said this was a very shocking cam. He committed the prisoner for trial. MORE CANNIBALISM.—Edward Rich, a black man, was brought up on remand before Mr. Woolrych, charged with stabbing Edward Dixon on the head, at the Eastern Hall publie-house, at the i pncrion of the East and West India Dock roads, Limehouse, and with afterwards assaulting John Jackson in the Poplar station-house, and biting off a portion of his nose. The prisoner, a perfect savage, had dropped some half. pence he received in change at the bar of the Eastern Hall, and, believing that the people there assembled were about picking up his haltpence, he struck out at the man Dixon, who was next to him, and struck him three times on the head. Dixon's hat fell off, and while he was stooping to pick it up, the prisoner struck him on the head with a large jack knife." The fellow was secured, and conveyed to the station-house. Jackson accompanied Dixon to the station house, and while there the prisoner suddenly at tacked him. and bit off a portion of his nose. Mr. Matthew Brownfield, surgeon, stated that he at tended the wounded man. There was a wound on Dixon's scalp an inch and a half long, and penetrating to the bone. The wound divided a branch of the temporal artery, and the hemorrhage was excessive. The blow was given with great force. After attending to Dixon he waited on Jack son, a portion of whose nose on the left aide was gone. It was bitten off _ _ _ William Sorrell, 410 K, a police constable, produced the portion of the man's nose, which he found on the floor of the station house. He also produced a large clasp knite, which he found on the prisoner. Mr. Woolrych committed the prisoner for trial, The wounded triPn belong to the Naval Reserve, and were at drill on Saturday, They have necessarily been alasent ever since. IMPERIAL PARLTAIWENT ROUSE OF COMMONS.---This Day. The SPEAKER took the chair at quarter past 12. LONDON, CHATHAM, AND DOVER RAILWAY (No. 1) BILL. Sir MORTON . PETO moved " that the order for the second reading on Monday next be read and discharged, and that the bill be read a second time to-morrow." He complained that the hon member for Stafford (Alderman Sydney) yesterday, acting for the City of London, took a step with respect to this bill without communicating with the agents, utterly opposed to the ordinary practise cf the house, and which he was quite justified in stigmatising as more tike the practises of sharp barristers at the Ola Bailey than worthy of a member of that house,:to which, he apprehended, an apology was due. The course he had adopted in no way affected the viaduct over Ludgate-hill. Mr. Alderman SYDNEY said he took the step he did as en indepee dent member. He desired to prevent the die. figuration of the town. If, however, the parties would per mit the city authorities to appear against the bill in com mittee, he would support the rescinding of his motion or yesterday. Mr. MASSEY intimated that on Monday he would propose the standing orders be suspended, so that the bill could be proceeded with in the ordinary way, and without classification. After some discussion the motion was withdrawn on this understanding. [LEFT SITTING.] LONDON GAZETTE—Yesterday. WHITEHALL, JUNE 27.

The favourable advices hand from all parts of England respecting the crops, pro duced a heavy market both for red and white pro duce, and the quotations had a downward tendency. There was a good show of foreign wheat on the stands. Buyers operated cautiously in all descriptions, and where sales were pressed, is per quarter less money was accepted Floating cargoes of grain were in slow request, at about previous rates. The supply of barley on show was very moderate. Both grinding and distilling qualities were in steady request, at full quotations. Malt changed hands slowly, on former terms. _ _ _ The market was well supplied with oats. Good and fine qualities moved off steadily, at full prices; but inferior parcels bold heavily, at Monday's currency. The supply of beans and peas was sm ill, and both articles supported previous qu )tations. In flour, sales progressed slowly, yet no change took place in prices, compared with Monday.

FLOGGING LADIES IN POLANI). The Earl of SHAFTESBURY said the other evening when he stated that General Mouravi:ff had issued an order to the effect that ladies appearing in mourning in the streets of Poland should be flogged, the noble earl, the Secretary of State for Foreign Affiirs, was of opinion that the statement was wholly untrue. Since that that time he (Earl of Shaftesbury) had heard that the exact terms of the order were, that if ladies appeared in mourn ing after the publication of the general order, they were to be fined in va , ious sums ranging from between 25 to 100 roubles, and in the event of their not plying the fine they were to be subjected to the punishment of the knout. The consequence of the order had been a rising at Wilna ; and he wished to ask the noble earl opposite whether he had now received any information confirming such a report. Earl RUSSELL said h' had received a communication from her Majesty's Ambassador at St. Petersburg in answer to an inquiry which he had made, and it only went the length of saying that, in the event of ladies appearing in mourning after the issue of the order, they would incur the penalty of a fine. Nothing was said about subjecting them to the inhuman barbarity of the knout. AMERICA. In answer to a question from Lord STRATHEDEN, Earl RUSSELL said that about an hour before the meeting of the house the French Ambassa dor had called on him at the Foreign Office, and said that he had heard it very generally rumoured that he had received orders to make a communication to her Ma jesty's Government relative to America. The French Am bassador then informed hips that he had no orders to make ,my proposition from the Emperor of the French such as had been reported; but the Emperor was desirous of acting in concert with the Briti,h Government to bring about a cessation of hostilities in America.

The Earl of DE tt•BY said that in moving for a copy of the proclamation issued by Sir Henry Storks, for the an nexation of the lonian Islands to Greece, it was not his in tention to enter at any length into the question of the policy which had dictated the annexation. He sheuld merely take that opportunity of expressing his disapproval of that policy, and his dissent from the assertion made by the noble viscount at the head ot the Government, in ano ther place, that as they were making a cession of that which was not part of the territories of the Crown, the subject was not a fit one for discussion in Parliament. He (the Earl of Derby) maintained, on the contrary, that every act of a responsible Minister was a fit subject for discussion in Parliament. (Hear.) He had a very strong opinion as to the inexpediency of the surrender of the protectorate, which would be eminently disadvantageous to the lonian Islands themselves, and not conducive to the interests either of this country or of Europe. Her Majesty's Govern ment hat exhibited a rather romantic generosity on the subject. Their only thought seemed to be the interests and the gratification of the lonian Isles. They never seemed to think that the interests and advantage of England ought to be consulted. The Powers who were parties to the treaties which established the protectorate all wish that England should hold those islands. Surely it was not love merely for the people of the islands and attention to their interests which actuated the plenipotentaries. Other matters en tered into the arrangement, such as the prevention of other powerful maritime states getting possession of Corfu, and the general question of preserving peace and the balance of power in Europe. High naval authorities had stated that the port of Corfu was a most important position for Great Britain to hold; and the only change which in his opinion had been effected by steam, was to make the possession of Corfu more than ever important. (Hear, hear.) They were bringing into the kingdom of Greece a restless and aggressive people at a time when they wanted to secure the peaceful condition and unaggressive character of the new kingdom. The islands themselves would be material suf ferers. A restless and dissatisfied portion of the population were opposed to the British protectorate, and anxious for union with Greece, but the thinking people had no such desire. They were too well aware of the advantages which they derived from the protectorate. They had enjoyed a large amount of material prosperity. They had the advantage of well-regulated institutions, and they had a large and well-disciplined force of British soldiers in garrison. If any portion of the Greek army were to be introduced instead of the British, when soldiers should be withdrawn, he could not help wishing the lonians joy of the change. (Hear, and a laugh.) But, as regarded the European question, the first great maritime Power that could seize Corfu would certainly do so in the next war that might break out. The noble earl would not surely assert that the vast expenditure which had been made in streegthening the fortifications of Corfu had been done solely for the benefit and advan tage of the lonians. We had had British interests in view there. (Hear, hoar.) Some of the most exalted statesmen of England had declared the importance of the possession of Corfu, and some rather sudden change must have come over the opinions of some even of her Majesty's present Ministers; for the noble duke (New castle) had declared, in a despatch sent out not very . long since, and in debates in that house, that the praoetece torate should be maintained at all hazards. The co earl, after the revolution which took place in G e in October last, had been looking for a King for the (}re and he promised to cede the lonian Isla nds provid ed r o e s pto rince the lonians wished, and the Powers that were treaty of 1815 consented. But when the , V - his fa ther sti • William of Denmark was offered the crown, seat. although the pula-ed that the lonian Isles should be added, He wished other Powers had not been asked to con reos ution to secure to know if the noble earl had taksaanwy who h were entitl es re the payment of pensions to persons also Nt,oirerekn.tnoh , :eye ; o h w at er w s e: to be were now in the lonian them for serving her Majesty faithfully to be demolished Islands. He wiehed with the works at Corfu ? left to act as a temptation to warn . If they ad soldiers for no w garrisoned by British trootpbse easy find were to be left to the Greek army, it m ight no to . he understood consisted ot 8,0,0 sol diers,them. That army laegh)—rather a strange pro portion. and 4,000 on like also to know what was He shouldto be done And with the guns and stores. he trusted that the noble Greek earl had provided for the found loan which had been raised in this country. by the agreement entered into with the new King of Greece, Prince 'William of Den mark, that the three . Powers are to endow him with £4,000 eac h, in addition to his civil • a yearlist. He would not go further. H e supposed there was no use " in contending ag ainst that which was unfelt accompli. Earl RUSSELL said that his noble friend (Lord Pal merston) was perfectly right in saying that the assent of Parliament was not necessary f r the cession of the lonian Islands, Whi c h were not part of the dominions or territory belon • ging to the British Crown. The noble earl seemed to think it very strange that the Powers who were parties to the treaty of Vienna should have any regard to the welfare or happiness of the people ot the lonian Islands. The British Government was not anxious for the pro tectorate. The Austrian Government would like to have had it. But the Russian and Prussian arguments pre vailed, and England finally undertook it. He did not think it was a very heavy charge that her Majesty's Go vernment should have had a wish to forward the happiness and contentment of the lonians; and, as to the suddenness of their resolution to give up the protectorate, the noble lord should remember the fact that the revolution in Greece which led to the proposition had been very precipitate. (Hear.) Her Majesty's Government wished to prevent the kingdom of Greece from falling into disorder. They wished to see it under a strong constitutional monarchy, and they directed all their efforts to effect that end. As to the Prince of Denmark stipulating for the cession of the lonian Islands it was only a condition which was likely to be fulfilled. If it were not, then the Prince would not be bound to accept the throne. But the people and the parliament of the lonian Islands had often declared their deliberate desire to be united to Greece, and it appeared to her Majesty's Govern ment to be a very natural wish. lie would not depreciate the value of Corfu as a military station; but ho thought that they had too many military foreign stations all over the world-,(hear)—more than they might find it convoiellt to Jt . defend in case:of a war. (Hear.) He thought it would be rather a facility if they had only one great station in the Mediterranean to defend in time of war. When they consi dered the number of the British army which was kept up in tirue of peace, it would strike them at once what must be the effect of being obliged to stand off 69 . ,000 or 70,000 men to garrison distant foreign stations the moment a war should break out. (Hear.) Moreover, he did not think it unworthy of this great nation to show that it was not a mere desire of dominion that inspired it, but that it could help in establishing the independence and happiness of others. (Hear.) It was best to make this cession when there was no pressure upon us—to do it voluntarily. (Hear, hear.) As to consulting the other Powers, the very first th ng he did was to inform the representatives of Russia, Austria, France, and Prussia that such a cession was in contemplation. Austria did na like the proposition, but she was not so unreasonable as to set her own opinions in oppo sition to the strong desires and interests of the lonians and of Greece, and the wishes of England and the other Powers. France and Ilussia most readily agreed. The affairs of Greece were now happily in the course of settlement. It was not because no actual difficulties had arisen that there had not been danger. The lonian Parliament would be assembled and consulted. The Greet Powers wou;d then be asked to consent to the union of the islands with Greece. Tne deb's and engagements would of course be provided for. It would be impossible for her Majesty's Government to abdicate the protectorate until the engagements were pro vided for. The forts, with the guns and stores, would be t o granted be a t Athens, to Sir J.

The revolution in Greece was not made at the suggestion of the British Government, and he (Earl Rus sell) should ever feel happy that he had contributed his best advice in effecting such a satisfactory termination to what might have been a great peril to Europe. The Duke of NEWCASTLE said th a t no proclamation whatsoever had been issue-J. by Sir Henry Storks. He had telegraphed to the Lord High ~ 'onarnissioner, who had re plied by telegraph that no proclamation had been issued, and that a hat had taken place would be found in a de spatch which had been sent forward. That despatch had arrived yestercay, and what had occurred was simply this - The Greek archbishop had oraleseda " To Deem , ' i n the cathedral. Sir H. Storks, fearing the excitable nature of the peopl , , informed the archbishop that he would hold him responsible for anything that might take place. The arch. bishop sent back to say that Sir H. Storks, as the represen tative of the British Government, who aid done so much for the lonians, would be joyfully received by them, and he invited the Lord High Commissioner to attend the cathe dral. Sir H. Storks could not go under the circumstances, but he sent his aide-de-camp and another officer, who at tended in plain clothes. They were loudly cheered in the streets, loud vivas were shouted for the Queen and the Lord High Commissioner; and when—after the " Te Deum"— " God save the Queen" was sung in the church, the entire congregation rose and cheered again and again. (Hear, and a laugh.) That was the whole of what had taken place. As to the allusion made by the noble earl to him, he had not changed his opinion on the subject. He had raid there was not, at the time he spoke and wrote, any intention on the part of the Government to giVe up the protectorate; but he himself had for many years been of opinion that we ought to cede the lonian Islands to Greece, and not keep a protec torate which was not liked by the lonians. Lord STRATFORD DE REDCLIFFE said that it was impossible not to admire the sentiments which had actuated the noble earl and inspired the line of conduct which he had pursued with regard to the union of the lonian Islands with Greece. But his (Lord Stratford de Redcliffe's) experience in that part of the world pre vented him from giving his assent to the course which the noble lord had adopted. He was completely in accord ance with the opinions held ty noble lords on the other side of the IL,use upon this question, and he thought 1 that the noble earl (Earl kerby) had rendered great and important service to the public by giving expression to the sound views and opinions which he had just enunciated. (Hear.) He did not think that Greece had shown herself deserving of the favour which had been Shown to her. (Hear, hear.) He did not think that the junction of the Seven Islands with Greece would be advantageous either to the new kingdom or to themselves. He greatly feared teat the los- of the fortifictvions and harbour of Greece would be severely felt by this country, and he thought that Turkey would be seriously embarrassed by the new arrangement. Lord TAUNTON could not allow the opportunity to pass without expressing his deep gratification that her Ma jesty's Government had finally arranged to get rid of the protectorate of the republic of the Seven islands. He had long been of opinion that our protectorate was a source of humiliation and shame, a reproach io this country, and he had often said that he trusted no honourable opportunity of relinquishing the protectorate wou!d be lost. A fair and honourable opportunity had offered when the revolution in Greece and the election of Prince William of Denmark opened up a fresh prospect of peace and prosperity for that interesting country; and he was rejoiced that it had been accepted by his noble friend (Earl Russell). After a few words of explanation from the Marquis of NORMANBY and the Duke of NEWCASTLE, on the subject of the expressions used in one of his despatches by the noble duke, touching the maintenance of the protectorate, The Earl of HARDWICKE expressed his concurrence in the views of the Earl of Derby. The Earl of DERBY said that, as he found there was no such document in existence as ',that for the production of which he had moved, he should beg leave to withdraw his motion. • The motion was accordingly withdrawn. JUDGES IN THE ,lONIAN ISLANDS. -- , Lord CHELMSFORD rose to call the attention of the of the house to the papers laid upon the table as to the removal of two lonian judges of the Supreme Council of Justice of 0 lonian Islands; and to put a question to the Secretary to State for the Colonies upon the subject of th th e a p o e island,. which persons may have become entitled in ted to Sir G e orge Mar the former motion regarding those judges,t contsin the infer- He complained that the papers which b been go 3 koran and Sir Anastasio Xidian, did not con the eir mation which he wanted.

The noble earl proceeded to vindicate the honour and cha racter of Sir George Markoran and Sir Anastasio Xidian. The LORD CHANCELLOR said that a hypothetical case which he had put in the former debate had been supposed to be a positive one, and he regretted to find that it had given pain to a gentleman of the highest ho nour, a circumstance which he deeply deplored. He was acquainted with many gentlemen who were connected with the lonian islands, and they all assured him that a more upright or more honourable man than Sir George Mar -1 koran was not to be found on earth. (Hear, hear.) He had in the former debate stated that he had the greatest syna paihy for these judges, and that he deeply regretted the subject had been brought before the house, That opinion was strengthened by the renewal of the subject that evening. The debate was then allowed to drop. MILLINERS AND DRESSMAKERS. The Earl of SHAFTESBURY moved that an humble address be presented to her Majesty, praying that an inquiry into the physical and moral condition of the milliners and dressmakers be made by the Royal Commission now sitting on the "state of children and young persons in trades and manufactures not regulated by law." Earl GRANVILLE said that on inquiry of his right hon. friend the Secretary of State for the Home Depart ment (Sir G. Grey) he found that the commission had power already to examine the cases referred to by the noble Earl, and Sir George Grey had accordingly directed the attention of the commissioners to the condition of the dress makers and milliners. The Earl of SHAFTESBURY withdrew his motion. Their lordships then adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS—Last Evening. The SPEAKER took the chair at twenty minutes past twelve o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS.
