MONEY MARKET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. There is less demand for discount acccmmoda- Con to-day, and an easier feeling prevails, 3,1- per Cent. being the rate for the best three months' bills. A farther sum of £lO,OOO in gold was taken into the bank yesterday. _ _ The last week's railway receipts ascertained up to this day are in round figures as under :- 1863. 1862.

Two O'CLOCK. At the first half-yearly meeting to-day of the shareholders of the Union Bank of Ireland, Mr. T. W. L. 319ckean in the chair, the report submitted to the proprietors stated that notwith standing the depression in every branch of industry in Ireland, consequent on successive deficient harvests, the accounts showed, after paying all current expenses, a balance of profit amounting to £823 78. ld. to be carried to the next account. The arrangements for the establishment of branches in several parts of Ireland were not completed till last March. An extraordinary general meeting of the share holders of the Oriental Inland Steam Company was i , hdld to-day for the purpose of receiving a report from the chairman (Col. Grimes) of his investiga tions in India into the conduct of the managing director, and of a resolution requesting his retire- bent from the management of the company. The Netherlands Land Enclosure Company held its Eleventh annual meeting to-day, Mr. G. P. Bidder in the chair. The report, which was car- - ried unanimously, stated that, in consequence of sh the unusually severe sto rms o f th e 19 t h and 21st ir December, 1862, which destroyed no less than 12 polders in the vicinity of the company's land, and occasioned great damage to the banks of the com- Pany, the payment of the half-yearly interest due u this month on the 7 per Cent. Obligations could ti not be made. The Paris Three per Cent. Rentes, this morning, st, according to Mr. Reuter's telegram, opened at 67f. st 10c. 671. 15c. ; firm, but inanimate. Soon after the commencement of business this s t i' i morning at the Stock Exchange, an advance of 1 Li per cent, was established in the English Funds, 1 , occasioned no doubt by the more pacific view now 1: taken of political matters, and the continued exce. ii - lent accounts of the mops. The rise, however, was d i not maintained after the arrival of a telegram from the Paris Bourse, showing no particular movement el in the Rentes, and Consols receded to the prices which were current at the close of yesterday after noon, viz., 93 1 for money and account.

SPORTING PROSPECTS—INVERARY. — SpOrtSMeD are beginning to arrive at their boxes in all parts of the Highlands. The shooting prospects are everywhere ex. cellent. Refreshing rains would, however, be beneficial to the young broods, as long continued droughts often prove disastrous. The coveys are very wild, and strong on the wing, and not a bird is to be seen which will not rise a hundred yards before. I n Glenaray, Glencroe, Lochty de, Lochawesicie, Dalmelly, an d all th e other fine shooting ranges here, the prosptcts are reported to be unus ually good. The birds are far advanced, in excellent condition, and very numerous. In the deer forest, superior stalking is anticipated. The fawns have been numerous, and th. 3 herds of deer are in a splendid condition, owing to the flue ,:al.4z'ng season. So many fine antlered stags have seldom been seen, and heads of twelve and fourteen po , nts will not be difficult to find. SHARE MARKETS—This day. Share) RullwayE. 3.14. , Bir., Wol., and Str.

In this case his Honour passed the bankrupt's exami nation, and granted the order of discharge, but that deci sion was appealed against, and the Lord Chancellor had directed that the matter should be referred back to the learned Commissioner for further evidence. Mr. Griffiths complained that the opposing creditor had not complied with the order of the Lord Chancellor to brine the matter to issue without delay, that the matter might be decided before the vacation, but the ord r had not been drawn up, and consequently the case was not in his Honour's paper of business for the day, but the matter stood in the Lord Chancellor's list for the day. The bankrupt had volunteered to submit to any further examination, however searching, and to give every ixpla nation ; it was therefore a very la , ,rd case that he should be prejudiced by the lathes of the opposing creditor. Mr. E. C Lewis protested against the irregularity of taking matters not in the list before the business of the day. It was a matter of constant occurrence, and led to great incenvenieuce. He was engaged in a cause from 11 o'clock, and it was now 12, and he must ask the Court to proceed with the business on the list. His case had been adjourned till this day. His Honour said he did not see how he could proceed at all. He had decided on the case, as he was led to believe, on its merits. He was now told that his decision had been I appealed against, but he had nothing before him to show Ax husx Row,—Daniel Smith, John Griffin, and Ellen Barber were placed before Mr. Hall, charged with assault ing the police. Police•constable 112 F said ho was on duty last evening, near Parker-street, Drury-lane, when his attention was attracted by the female prisoner, who, being intoxicated, was dancing and singing and making a great disturbance. He went up to her to endeavour to persuade her to go home, when she commenced calling him anything but proper names, and as he was about to remove her from the place she commenced fighting, and, on closing with him, she Lit him in the hand and on the knee. Griffin seeing the woman in custody rushed to the spot, and with a stick, which he held iu his hand, beat nim so about the head that he thought his life was in danger. He then for a short time seized hold of b ,th prisoners, when Smith came forward and attempted to rescue them. Some other con stables fortunately c,me up, and all three prisoners were conveyed to the station. The nmsiable's evidence having been corroborated, Mr. Hall asked the female what she had to say to the charge ? Barber—Say to it. Why, that it's all false, and he knows it. Drunk indeed I Why, how could I get drunk when I hadn't anything to eat all day? (Laughter.) I've got a baby, and it's not likely I should get drunk. Mr, Hall—Then you say you were sober? Well, that only makes the matter worse. Barber- —Oh, does it I (Laughter.) Then all I've got to say is, that I hadn't anything to eat, and having a baby— (laughter)—l don't think the drop o' Veer I took could hive taken effect of me. Mr. Hall—Weli, Smith, what have you to say to the that. Mr. Griffiths said there was no doubt of the fact, but the question was, who was to draw up the order. His Honour's decision was of vital importance, so that, if possible, it might be conveyed to the Lord Chancellor before his Lordship rose to-day. His Honour said he would not allow applications to in terfere with the regular course of the business of the day. but after the list of the day had been gone through, he would hear any arguments on either side. charge? Smith—l wasn't in the street at all, so I couldn't have anything to do with it. (Laughter.) Mr. fiall—Ai.d I suppose, Griffin, you were not there Either ? Griffin—That's it, your whorship, I wasn't. (Laughter.) Mr. Hall—Then it's all a mistake of the policeman's, he was not struck at all, and the marks about his face prove it ? (Laughter.) Griffin—Well, I wasn't in the mess. I never hit him with a stick. How am Ito tell how he got the marks on his face ? . _ _ MARKETS—This Day. MARK-LANE.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE. Our market to•day was fairly supplied with beasts in about average condition. All breeds met a dull inquiry; nevertheless, very little charge took place in prices com pared with Monday. The best Scots realised 4s. 10d. per Blbs.

Robert Dilke, foreman to Mr. Henderson, said that on Monday morning the prisoner came to the stables and said he wanted two saddle horses—one for himself and one for his brother—to go to the Crystal Palace, Sydenham, and that they were to be sent to 17, Blomfield-terrace, Padding ton, at 10 o'clock, where his father resides. He returned, however; about 9 o'clock, and mounted one of the horses, and wanted to take the other with him, but he (witness) re fused to let him have it, and sent a man with him. The prisoner took the man to the Strand on some excuse, and told him to go back and tell him (witness) that he would ride home one horse himself, but before doing so he changed horses, taking the most valuable one. He, however, never came back with the horse. Per blb. to sink the offal. s. d. s. d. s. d. s. d.

Mellows, when I complimented him on the sanitary advantages it may or may not possess. " I wish I had never seen the town 1" " You don't belong to it, Mr. Mellows ?" " Belong to it I" repeated Mellows. "If I didn't belong to a better style of town than this, I'd take and drown myself in a pail." It then occurred to me that Mellows, having so little to do, was habitually thrown back on his internal resources—by which I mean the Dol phin's cellar. " What we want," said Mellows, pulling off his hat, and making as if he emptied it of the last load of Disgust that had exuded from his brain, before he put it on again for another load, " what we want is a Branch. The Petition for the Branch Bill is in the coffee-room. Would you put your name t)it ? Every little helps." I found the document in question stretched out flat on the coffee-room table by the aid of certain weights from the kitchen, and I gave it'the additional weight of my uncommercial signature. To the best of my belief, I bound myself to the modest statement that universal traffic, happiness, prosperity, and civilisation, together with unbounded national triumph in competition with the foreigner, would infallibly flow from the Branch. Having achi-Ned this constitutional feat, I asked Mr. Mellows it he could grace my dinner with a pint of good wine? Mr. Mellows thus replied, "If I couldn't give you a pint of good wine, I'd—there—l'd take and drown my self in a pail. But I was deceived when I bought this busi ness, and the stock was higgledy-piggledy, and I haven't yet tasted my way quite through it with a view to sort ing it. Therefore, if you order one kind and get another change till it comes right. For what," sßid Mellows, un loading his hat as before, "what would you or ropy gentle man do, if you ordered one ki n d o f w i ne an d was required to drink another? Why, you'd (min naturally and properly, having the feelings of a gentleman), you'd take and drown yourself in a pail l" Charles Dickens, in " All the Year Round."

I stake my money on the odd numb3rs, and my neighbour on the even. If I win be loses, if I lose be wins; but, in either case, the bank—which, in the present instance, is represented by the press—gains its commission. And there are other resemblances between the game of advertising and that of the green baize tables. If you must ga mble, the firs t r u l e is—Go in heavily, and play high. In that event, you may win a great "coup ;" but if y ou go o n with ped , ' ling stakes ,tncl a cautious system, you are absolutely certain to lose. So, if you must resort to puff advertising—advertise, every.. where and anywhere, to the utmost of your means, or your credit, Gazette. But if you trifle with advert isin g , you will lose and you will end in the Ho use of Lords or—in the your money v:thout a doubt. As the majority of mankind have not the courage to play a bold game in any pursuit, it is certain that, as a rule, advertisers make small ventures, and waste their substance foolishly.—Once a Wee?. to Willesden, and in the evening, after searching for the prisoner, found him in a pleasure boat on the canal. He also ascertained that the prisoner had been there the day before with two horses, which he had been letting out in cheap rides to the school children at Willisden. On inquiry at the livery stables he (Jones) found that prisoner had had about 20 horses from different persons—sometimes out for four hours and sometimes for five. On searching his room he found a number of spurs end whips. Mr. Tyrwhitt inquired of the first witness the value of the horse taken from Mr. Henderson, and the witness Diike said it was £BO. Jones said he also found that the prisoner yesterday bought a pound of sherbet and gave it to a man almost a stranger, and on asking the prisoner how he could have got to town without any money, he said that he should have ridden the horse along the towing path of the canal, and thus have avoided the toll gates. The uncle of the prisoner stepped into the witness• box, and on Mr. Tyrwhitt asking him whether he wished to say anything of the prisoner, he replied, "Nothing in his favour, sir." Mr. Tyrwhitt told the uncle the prisoner would be re manded for a week, when it is believed several other charges will be preferred. MARYLEBONE. CRUELLY WORKING A HORSE.—Thomas Norman, a carman, was charged before Mr. Yardley, at the instance of Mr. W. Love, chief-officer of the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, with the following cruelty to a horse : James Ruth er f o rd, one of the society's officers, said that he was in the Hampstead-road and saw prisoner in charge of a waggon containing a ton and a half of coal, having only one horse in it. Whilst under the railway bridge, end just before reaching the canal bridge, which has a very steep ascent, he lashed the horse must brutally, in order to make him " take the bridge" with such a heavy load. The animal made a dead stop, utterly unable to proceed any further. Witness remonstrated with him on his cruelty, and on looking at the horse he found whip marks under the belly and on the most tender parts. There was matter oozing from wounds on the shoulders and other parts. Mr. Yardley, who had seen the horse, said it was in a most wre died state, Frederick Hubbard, coal-dealer, .of 3, Rathbone-place, Oxford-street, the owner of the horse, said he was not aware it was in so bad a state, Mr. Yardley—Nonsense, sir; thin , t stand there and tell me that. I never saw a horse more sensitive in my life. It is impossible to touch the poor beast without its showing pain all over ita body. It is a scandalous shame, and I shall fine the prisoner 10s. and in default of payment seven days hard labour in the House of Correction, and, Rutherford, if the master does not pay the fine take a sum mons out against him for sending a horse ort in such a state. The master paid the fine, and said he would have the horse destrayed. THAMES. TAKEN IN AND DONE FOR,—A poor man, named Weaver. came before Air. Partridge and stated that he pur chased the duplicate of a chain, which was represented to be gold, of an acquaintance, and redeemed it. He had since taken it to Mr. Carpenter, a very respectable pawn broker, in the Cannon-street-road, St. George-in-the-East, who said the chain was only silver, and electro-platel with gold on the surface. He gave 3s. for the duplicate. The chain was in pawn for £2 155., and it cost him in all three guineas. He believed it was only worth a few shillings. Mr. Partridge—l cannot help you at all. You have made a very bad bargain indeed. Applicant— I have indeed, sir ; I have been taken in and done for. Mr. Partridge—l should think that chain is only worth a few shillings. A pawnbroker's assistant in court said the utmost value of the electro plated silver chain was 15s. The applicant said he was very much surprised that any pawnbroker should lend 555. on a chain only worth 15s. Mr. Partridge—lt does seem very strange, indeed. I cannot help you, but if the person who sold you the dnpli cate is worth powder and shot you can proceed against him in the County Court. I have no jurisdiction in the case.

They ran in these positions to the bottom of the hill, where Despair was headed by Liston, who waited upon Mr. Bryans mare to the enclosure, where she was beaten, leaving Liston to canter in the winner by a length and a half. Despair, who headed Zora in the last few strides, finished second by half a length. The others were beaten off some distance. Sweepstakes of 300 soya each, h ft, for fillies, Bst 71b each.

On settling into their places Jack o' Hearts, evidently for the purpose of serving his stable companion, immediately rushed to the front and made play at a strong pace, followed by Loiterer, the favourite, Blackdown, and Zapateado in a body ; then came, at an interval of a couple of lengths, Bar chettina, Balham, and Blondin, nearly abreast, the rear being brought up by Bellmari and the Maid of Masham filly. With little alteration they proceeded to the turn out of the course, re unding which Zapateado ran into the second place, Magnum Bonum going on third, with Blackdown, Blondin, and Barchettina in close attendance. As they pro ceeded along the skirt of the hill to the far turn, Lord Zet land's colt gave way to Magnum Bonum, who, with Bar chettina and Blondin at his girths, was observed, on reap pearing in sight, several lengths in advance of Balham and Anfield, who headed the others, Lord Glasgow's and Bell man retaining their rearward position, and half-way up the hill were joined by Zapateado, Loiterer, and Barchettina. Jack of Hearts maintained his advantage round the turn into the straight, closely attended by Magnum Bonum, Blackdown, Anfield, Balham, and Blondin, to which lot the race was evidently confined, and who came on in com pany into the bottom, where Jack o Hearts, having per formed his required task, gave way, followed in a few strides further by Balham and Blondin. Blackdown then immediately went to the front and came on with a clear lead on the far side, waited upon by Jack of Hearts, Mag num Bonum, Aufield, and Blondin. At the enclosure An field came with a rush and joined the leaders, but, after running a few strides in company, Morgan called upon Blackdown, who pulled in advance and won very cleverly by three parts of a length. .1 - ack o' Hearts finished a bad third, as far in advance of Magnum Bonum,who was placed fourth; Blondineivas fifth, Balham sixth, Loiterer seventh, and Bar ehettina next, beaten off a long way ; then came at wide intervals Wasp gelding, the Maid of Masham filly, Zapateado, and Bellman, the two latter having broken down badly ; the positive last being Canzonette, who trotted in a long way in their rear.

A FItESII MAN 1011 2 12 11i 12 IGENCE, GOODWOOD RACES—WEDNESDAY. The glorious weather and the attraction of " the Stakes" brought together a large and distinguished concourse to day. To give a list of the company would be to include nearly all those members of the aristocracy who have ffed from the metropolis to seek in cool sea breezes and the agremens of country houses, the rest so much needed after the fatigues of the London season. We observed his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, the Duke of Beaufort, the Duke and Duchess of Montrose, the Earl and Countess of Winchelsea, the Earl and Countess of Stamford, Earl and Couetsss Spencer, the Earl and Countess of Lincoln, the Earl of Derby, the Earl of Coventry, the Earl of Zet land, &c., while many of the "faithful Commons," released from senatorial cares, were more agreeably occupied in speculating on the different chances of Buckstone and the French mare, and whether Anfield really was the certainty his party asserted. The Stakes have been shorn of much of their interest of late years from causes which it is not necessary here to enter upon. The general opinion that this year's entry was of an in different quality was borne out by the fact of no ono animal being prominently in the betting until Anfield came with a rush, on the strength of a very favourable trial with Stanton. Messrs. Payne and Greville are gentlemen who do not often make mistakes, and the public endorsed their judgment by elevating their horse to the Premiership. This post be continued to hold through good and evil report, though Bellman trod close on his heels. the Wasp gelding was held in high estimation by his stable, and Balham had his friends. The result ivas a blow to the gentlemen, the win ner turning up in an extreme outsider, Blackdown, a colt who had been tried very high with Bally Edmond, but the secret had been so well preserved that up to the last moment his friends were able to obtain a remunerative price about him.* Bellman and Zapateado, as will b 3 gathered from the account of the race given elsewhere, broke down, The Findon brought 12 young ones to the post, and an interest ing contest resulted in the victory of Paris, who had been satisfactorily tried with the Clown. Linda represented Mr. Naylor's stable, and was iu immense demand, but she could never quite reach Paris, whose victory was the more surpris ing as on his last appearance in public he ran a very mode -1 rate animal. Tomato was reported a little off, which will account for the figure she cut in the race. Macaroni's ap pearance in the Drawing-room Stakes was of course an event. The winner of the Derby looked and went splen didly and had the race in hand, despite his penalty, from the first, winning easily by two lengths. The following are the full details of the racing, which commenced with The Goodwood Derby of 25 soya each, 15 ft, for 3-yr-olds ; colts 83t 101 b, and fillies Bst 71b. Maiden horses allowed 3ib.

Betting--5 to 4on Buckenham, sto 2 agst Kingswood 6 to 1 agst Black Prince, and 10 to 1 agst the Principal. Immediately the flag was lowered Kingwood rushed to the front, and came on with a commanding lead, followed by The Principal, the favourite, Microscope, at whose girths was Black Prince. On reaching the turn into the straight, the former bolted towards the T.Y.C. starting post, leaving The Principal in command, who was joined at the distance t,y Buekenham, the latter in a few strides having a slight lead, which he retained to the enclosure, when Fordham, in company ci h Microscope, headed him, and finished a fine race home ; The Principal winning rather cl_verly at last by a length, twice that aistance separating the second and third, bad fourth. The St, Briavers Re• Marriage Case. In 1855, the Rev. A. Lush, curate of Greywell, Hants, prevailed upon a couple, who had been married at an Inde pendent chapel fourteen months before, to be re-married by him ; the parties being described in the banns, and in the register, as a bachelor and a spinster respectively. For this offence against the law he was committed for trial at the Winchester assizes ; but, in th• interim he thought it proper to confess his error, and the prosecution was abandoned. I❑ his apology, he acknowledged the validity of marriages performed either in dissenting chapels or before Superintendant Registrars, and also that they were " binding in the sight of the Church." Another clergyman, who has either forgotten these facts, or who is determined to brave the penalties of the law, has, it would seem, just committed a similar offence. On the 21st of June, a young couple were married at the Independent chapel, Monmouth, the man being an Episco palian, and the woman a Baptist. Eight day after, the vicar of St. Briavel's, Coleford, the Rev. R. Walmesley, re-married them ; describing the man in the register as a bachelor, and the woman as a spinster, and entering the woman's maidea name. The Government having been questioned by Sir Morton Peto, whether they intended to prosecute the offender under the 4th of Geo. IV. a. 76, s. 29, Mr. Bruce, the Under Se cretary of State, has replied that-- " He did not think that the conduot of the vicar in ques tion was such as to make him liable to prosecution for telony under the Act 4 George IV. c. 76. Either the first marriage was valid or it was not. If it was valid, then all that ws.s done was superfluous, and could not be the subject of prosecution. If the first marriage was invalid, then everything was properly done. It was clear the conduct of the vicar was not aiL offence against the law. It might be an offence against good taste and good feeling, and as such to be condemned." In this answer Mr. Bruce has either avoided the question put to him—which was, whether Mr, Walmesley would be prosecuted for the false entries made in the register—or he is wrong in his view of the law. For Mr. Walmesley has clearly violated the 29th section of the act referred to, which adjudges any one to be guilty of felony who know ingly makes a false entry in a parish register; seeing that he has registered the marriage of Mr. and Mrs. Hulin as that of a bachelor and spinster, he at the time knowing that they wire legally man and wife. He cannot even shelter himself behind the provision of an act of Parliament passed since the occurrence of the Grey well case, and passed for the purpose of meeting the views of High Church clergymen, who are shocked at the idea of contracting a marriage without any religious service. For the 12th section of the Marriage Act passed on the 29th of July, 1856, provides, that if the parties to any marriage contracted at a registry office shall desire to add the reli gious ceremony of the body to which they belong, they may present themselves to a minister of that body for the pur pose. But it is expressly provided, that the Superinten dent Registrar's certificate of marriage must be produced, and " nothing in the reading or celebration of suoh service shall be held to supersede or invalidate any marriage so pre viously conlracted, nor shall such reading or celebration be enterd as a marriage among the marriages in the parish registry." As to the off-hand official assertion, that if the first marriage was valid, " everything that happened subse quently was null," it may satisfy Churchmen, but it will not satisfy Nonconformists, who are the best judges as to the mischievousness of such proceedings as those of the vicer of St. Briavel's. With much difficulty they have suc ceeded in securing the right to celebrate their marriages in their own places of worship, instead of in those of the Es tablishment. They. know by experience how assiduously Churchmen try to prevent persons availing themselves of that right. Is it likely, therefore, that they will quietly allow a public functionary, who is bound to respect and uphold the law, to break the law for the purpose of casting contempt on Nonconformist marriages, and producing the impression on unthinking people that they are neither sanctioned by the legislature, nor can be followed by the blessing of Heaven ? Fortunately, what the Government declines to do may be done by others ; and, without wishing for any resort to vindictive proceedings, we hope that this case will be vigo rously dealt with by the Committee of Dissenting Deputies, who did good service by their proceedings against Mr. Lush in 1856. It is more than a matter of feeling which is involved ; for the greatest practical evils may arise if the clergy of the Establishment are allowed with impunity to make delusive entries in our parish registries.—(From the forthcoming volume of the Liberator.) Mr, Gladstone's Chance of Becoming Leader of the House of Commons. Mr. Gladstone's management of the House of Commons closely resembles the Irishman taking his pig to market han any other kind of leadership. The want of sympathy between him and his audience shows itself very strikingly. He cannot bring himself to understand an Englishman's aversion to crooked ways, either intellectual or moral. His performance upon the night on which the Exhibition build ing was disposed of has left behind it, in the minds of num bers of men, doubts of his political honesty which it will take years to efface. Yet it was a blunder which a genuinely dishonest man would never have committed. A man who had been accustomed to practise upon the credulity of his fellow-men might not have been afraid to induce as assem bly to purchase a bit of lend which was heavily encum bered, by the assurance that the title was clear from all encumbrance; but he would not expose his own trick to his mortified dupes within a fortnight of its success. It was eminently the proceeding of a man who had every desire to be honest, but who had so crooked and warped his own mind that he had become unable to discern whether a given course of conduct was or was not likely to offend other men's moral perceptions. All these defects intensify each other in the minds of those whom they affect. A very large mass of the House of Commons are offended by the extreme superciliousness of manner with which Mr. Gladstone treats every opposition that threatens to be formidable. He treats the house as though he seemed in all good faith to believe that his supercilious objurgations are gentle and dignified remonstrances. His perceptions upon this subject are so strangely blunt, that it is difficult to shake off the impres sion that he learnt his present style of speaking in some previous state of existence, when he was in the habit of ad dressing other Gladstones formed like unto himself. It would seem that these wonderful beings decidedly liked being snubbed in the tone in which the usher of a country school rebukes his little boys, and found that an abundant garnish of unnecessary words was rather an assistance to them than otherwise in comprehending the statement of simple matters of fact. But there is no immediate proba bility that an English assembly will attain to this height eithei• of tolerance or of perception. A considerable num ber in the House of Commons again bear a grudge against him for the harshness with which his legislation has been directed against their class interests. These, however, are grounds of dislike which men do not care to avow very openly ; and possibly they would gradually wear away if they were not supported by others more respectable. But they add no little intensity to the vigilance with which his sins against direct and straightforward dealing are detected, and to the force with which they are denounced. Just as Lord Palmerston's popularity of manner makes men very kind to the virtues of his policy, the schoolmaster tone that has become s second nature to Mr. Gladstone prevents even his professed supporters from affecting the slightest blind ness to his many political failures.—Saturday Review. Lard, SCULLERS' MATCH FOR £2oo.—The exciting scullers' mutch for £lOO aside, between Robert Chambers, champion of the Thames and Tyne, and Robert Cooper, was decided on the Tyne on Tuesday evening, in the presence of a large muster of spectators. The lace was rowed in outrigged boats, the distance being from the high Level-bridge to a boat, moored off Waterson's Gate, about one mile. A vast deal of interest was centred in this contest from the well-known speed of the champion, and the fine rowing power displayed by Cooper in his late race on the Thames with Everson; while the hollow manner in which he defeated Tagg in a mile race on the same day in which he beat Everson induced his friends to back him freely at the odds of six and seven to four, which were laid upon Chambers. At the appointed time the men rowed cif to their stations, Cooper, who won the toss for choice, taking the north side. A very even start was effected, and at the end of 100 yards Cooper was leading by half a length, and maintaining his position throughout, finally won b , nearly three boats' lengths, thus lowering the champion's colours on his own favourite water. THE MAJORITY OF OUR ORCHESTRAS, growls a fastidious Saturday Reviewer, consists of men who sci and blow at so many shillings per hour; an d when they have scraped and blown the settled quantity, and have got their pay, they are satisfied. They have little love or feel ing for music as such--as a tailor has no ardent passion for trousers in the abstract, and a grocer can . feel no senti ment for sugar. They call themselves " artists," but they arc mechanics, and the result is just what might be looked for. M.

Patti put the seal to the successes of th e season by her performance, on Tuesday, of the delightful vivandiere Maria, which mat henceforth be numbered among her most distinctive characters. Whilst she wants the buoyant and plquant iorce.of Madlle. Piccalomini, the most perfect representative which this comic heroine has yet obtained ; and whilst she shares only with Madlle. Artot the pecu liar refinement she exhibits, her performance is infinitely superior to that of Jenny Lind, and for this sufficient reason, that Madlle. Patti is kneatactress, and Jenny Lind was not. Like Madlle. Artot, our unequalled favourite rather idealises the Daughter of the Regiment than presents her as a great reality —making her the idol of her gallant guardians rather than their actual companion ; and this ver sion, however pleasing, we think much more in accordance with a refined taste than a just perception. It is a drawing -room view of Maria, which we confe ss we cannot prefer to that of the girl of the open air. Its success, however, was indisputable, and not ices the attractive man ner in which she delivered her two great arias— the spirited "Ciascun lo dice," that was very ardently encored, and the pathetic " Convien partir"—in which Maria bids adieu to her companions, and which she distinguisht d, on the other hand, by a most touching depth of feeling. In the lesson scene, of course, she was peculiarly at home, and lost no opportunity to display the florid marvels of which she is such a mistress. Madlle. Patti was well eupported by Signor Ciampi in Sulpizio, who sang and played with more than his usual nature, as well as spirit— Signor Baraldi, in Tonio, whose singing was irre proachable—and Madame Tagliafico in the Coun tess, which was a very agreeable effort. The band and chorus, as usual, stand in no need of our praises. PRINCESS'S THEATRE. MR. WALTER MONTGOMERY. This gentleman assumed, on Tuesday, the arduous character of Hamlet, and very considerab:y en larged his previous favourable impressions. If we were forced to think his Othello was not sufficiently inspired by passion, the same defect was to be de tected in his present impersonation—bat, of course, rendered by its different medium infinitely less imperious, To Othello, passion is truth—want ing that be is no reality, bat the double sided Hamlet, who, equally compounded of thought and feeling, so marvellously reflects the human mind, allows an actor great scope on one side, who might be wholly wanting on the other. Accord ingly the Hamlet of Mr. Montgomery, if not dis tinguished by its emotional, may claim no ordinary credit for its reflective characteristics. If not suffi ciently electtical, it is full of thought and judg ment, exhibiting the evidence of a very close and careful study of the poet, and in the present state of our stage is entitled to be accepted as a sound Shakesperian contribution. .....,.._ Mr. Montgomery's best scenes were those with Ophelia and the Queen, in both of which he rose to expressions of great vigour; the reference to Polonius in the first, especihlly, striking us to be new as well as impressive, whilst his climax to the play scene had a most adequate intensity. We could refer also to a variety of points in the per formance which were ingenious, if not correct. Oa the whole, this was an achievement that entirely justified the impression it produced upon the audi ence, who were frequently aroused by it to great applause, and who further evinced their feeling by calling for Mr. Montgomery at the close of each of the acts. We have only to add that he was very worthily supported by Mr. Marston in the Ghost, the very best that we remember, by Mr. C. Verner in the King, and by Mr. Belmore in the Grave. digger. -------7--- The Volunteer Review at Wimbledon. Horse-Guards, 24th July, 1863. My Lord, --Having reviewed the volunteer corps of the metropolis and its neighbourhood at Wimbledon on Satur day, the 18th instant, I have pleasure in stating that I was well satisfied with the general efficiency of the corps then assembled and with the drill of the battalions. I directed the force on the ground to be divided into two corps—the one, the attacking body, under Lieut.-General the Hon. Sir James Yorke Scarlett, who was assisted by Major-General Taylor, and Brigadier-General Bates in charge of Divisions; the other, the defending body, under Major-General Lord Frederick Paulet. The former force was composed of five brigades, commanded respectively by the senior officers of volunteers on the ground—Lord Colville, Lord Ranelagh, Lord Grosvenor, Lord Bury, and Lieut.-Col. Bigge. The latter, of three brigades, com manded by Lord Elcho, Lord Radstock, and Lieut.-. Col. Brewster. The attacking force was posted in the hollow ground at the western extremity of the common towards Combe; the defenders took up a position near the furthest firing butts. Having been attacked in front by the brigades under Brigadier-General Bates, the force under Lord Frederick Paulet retired behind the ravine, taking up a fresh position. Sir J. Scarlett then brought forward his right wing under Major- eieneral Taylor, throwing forward two brigades as a flank movement. Upon this, Lord F. Paulet's three brigades changed front, throwing back their left, and posted themselves across the Common with their backs to the grand stand ; Sir J. Scarlett moved his three brigades to the right, forming with them a second or supporting line to the two brigades which had made the flank movement from the right. At the end of the field-day the whole of the troops marched past in quarter distance columns before returning to their quarters. I was much satisfied with the excellent fire maintained by the battalions in line, and I thought that the men showed great aptitude in skirmishing, The artillery was efficiently handled, and the heavy batteries seemed to move with considerable facility. I was also much satisfied with the efficiency of the two horse-artillery guns, and the field battery belonging to the Honourable Artillery Company. I think it would be desirable on future occasions to im press upon the several corps the necessity for greater punc tuality in the time of reaching the drill-ground. The hone specified for the commencement of the evolutions was 5.30, but it was 6.45 before it was possible to commence opera tions, very few of the corps having reached their destination before that hour. The delay and inconvenience caused by this want of punctuality was very great. In conclusion, I can only express my satisfaction at the zeal with which all the ground carried out the instructions they received ; and I have a firm conviction that the volun teer force is becoming a very efficient body of men, and valuable as a great auxiliary to the regular army of the country. —I am, my Lord, yours, (Signed) a The Right Hon. Earl de Grey and Ripon. :rape GEORGE. War Office, 28th July, 1863. SIR,—I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your Royal Highness's letter of the 24th instant, and to express, in reply, the pleasure which I have experienced in learning that your Royal Highness was well satisfied with the general efficiency of the volunteer corps assembled on the occasion of the review at Wimbledon on the 18th inst. --I have the honour to be, Sir, your Royal Highness's obedient servant, (Signed) DE GREY and RIPON, His Royal Highness the Field-Marshal Commanding-in-Chief. ..1 - l I
