The New Threes and Reduced have receded to 904 t for the former, and to 901 for the latter. Ex chequer Bills are very heavy at 78. to 2s. die. A general decided decline has taken place in the Foreign Market, and business is dull.

The minimum rate of discount of the Bank of France has been raised from sto 6 per cent. This movement was generally expected, but the precise period of its adoption could not, of course, be accu rately estimated. The next movement is likely to be a further advance in the minimum of the Bank of England. A further withdrawal of 40,000 sovereigns took Place from tho Bank yesterday. In the foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon the rates Were generally rather higher. Since Monday last the imports of specie have amounted to £698,600, and the exports to £654,000.

COURT OF DIVORCE, (Before the Judge Ordinary.) SCOTT V. SCOTT. This was a motion for a new trial in this case, which was heard by Sir C. Cresswell, and presented some peculiar points. The petitioner, John Loudon Scott, instituted a suit before the Judge Ordinary for restitution of conjugal rights, to which respondent replied, and pleaded cruelty on the part of the petitioner, which rendered cohabitation with him dangerous, and deprived him legally of any marital rights. She also commenced proceedings for judicial sepa ration. The petition of the husband was heard, and a ver dict was found to the effect that the allegation of cruelty had not been proved. Judgment was not pronounced, as Sir C. Cresswell met with the accident which terminated fatally on the evening of the trial. The Queen's Advocate prayed for the reversal of the ver dict on the ground that it was not justified by the tvidence adduced at the trial. He said the principal testimony was that of the husband and the wife, and he contended that weight was not given to the testimony of a solicitor and a servant named Ann Moss, who had been living with the parties during a portion of the time when tho cruelty was alleged to have taken place. The parties were married in 1844, Mr. Scott, at the time, holding the rank of captain in the army, but having no property of his own, his wife gave him a portion of £4,000. The mother of Mrs. Scott became possessed of considerable property after the marriage of her daughter, to whom she allowed £2OO per annum, £lOO of which she gave to Captain :Scott. In 11847 Mr. Scott sold oat, and spent the money realised ty the sale of his commission. The learned gentleman then went through the evidence in detail, to show that prior to the separation , in June, 1862, Mr. Scott had differences with his wife, with respect to money matters and several other subjects. The Judge-Ordinary said he would consider the ques tion, and give his decision on Tuesday nest. POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day, MARLBOROUGH-STREET. ROBBING AN EMPLOYER.—John Walker, a lad in the employ of Mr. Darby, ironmonger, of Oxford-street, was charged with robbing his employer. It appears that the prisoner had only been in the employ of Mr. Darby six weeks, and in ::onsequence of Mr. Darby being extensively robbed, he employed Binstead Webb, a plain-clothes cfficer of the C division, and Weeks, 155 C, to watch the prisoner, and they followed him the previous night to a broker's shop, and saw him dispose of a flat-iron. Oa Webb taking him into custody, he said that if the officer had come alone ho should have had a " - go in for it." Mr, Darby said he had missed a good deal of property. The prisoner pleaded guit'y, and as Mr. Knox believed it was the prisoner's first offence, he cAumitted him for a month. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. HEREFORD RACES AND STEEPLECHASES, FRIDAY.

The Queen's Advocate, in this case, also moved for a new trial. The marriage was performed in 1833, and cohabita tion continued until 1835, when a separation took place, the husband agreeing to give her 75. per week under a deed of separation. In the years 1842 the husband was living with a person of the name of Ann Halfield, and for some considerable time the wife continued to receive the 7s. weekly. Ultimately she pre • sented a petition to the court for judicial separation on the ground of adultery, but this allegation the respondent pleaded guilty, but alleged that the wife was a conniving party. The question:on which the case turned was whether it could be considered a connivance on the part of the wife —her receiving 7s. per week—under such circumstances. After considerable discussion a verdict was given for the defendant on all the issues, and from that decision he begged to appeal. He could not for a moment believe that it could be good in law that such a proceeding on the part of a poor uneducated woman—a woman receiving 7s. a-week under a regular deed of separation could be considered a connivance to such an extent as to preclude an appeal to the court. He trusted his lordship would be of opinion that the ques tion was of sufficient importance to be heard before the fall Court. The Judge Ordinary said he would look through the cases, and give his decision on Tuesday. The Court then rose. SHIPPING—This Day.

GUY FAWKES'S DAY AT GUILDFORD.—GUILD FORD, Friday.—After the time at which we wrote (8 o'clock) on Thursday evening the original intention to have the soldiery out to guard the whole of High -street from the invasion of the roughs was departed from ; but they were held in readiness to appear at any moment to quell any actual disturbance should the efforts of the large number of special constables who have been sworn in have proved unavailing. Things were quiet until a little atter 10 o'clock, when signs of an approaching row were very evi dent. Several bands of loughs promenaded up and down, yelling and hooting, and, in spite of the prohibition of fire works by the magistrates, there were many squibs and crackers let off in the very faces of the constabulary. One or two lads were apprehended, and in one case a rescue was attempted. This was prevented by the timely assistance of the special constables. The lads were taken before the mayor, Mr. Henry Piper, with the town-clerk, Mr. Small • piece, and other local authorities were at the Town-hall during the evening. About a quarter past AO o'clock there were three attempts made to make bonfires in the streets. That in front of Holy Trinity Church, which was always accounted the principal one, was speedily prevented. The second was a little more successful in Chapel-street, but the special constables soon arrived on the spot, and trampled out the embers. Hero a collision with the mob was immi nent, and only prevented by the arrival of a second force of constables. The third was lighted on the steep hill leading to the Cemetery. This was blazing for some little time before it was noticed, but a number of the special constables went to the spot and speedily extinguished it. A row oc curred nearly opposite the Angel Hotel, and it really ap • peered as if extraordinary measures would have to be taken to put it down. A shower of stones was sent at the constables, and one of them, Mr. Hart, painter, was badly hurt. It was here deemed advisable to give the usual public caution. The mayor and town-clerk accord ingly proceeded from the Town-hall. Standing on the steps in front of the Angel Hotel, the latter deliberately read the Riot Act, and the mayor ordered the streets to be cleared. The special constables then formed in a com pact body, and drawing their truncheons marched down the street, driving all before them. Several cases of per sonal injury occurred, but none were serious. The mayor and other local authorities remained at the Town hall until nearly 1 o'clock this morning, when the streets had become less crowded, but it was considered desirable that military pickets should be on duty up and down High street all night until daybreak to •day. Ono or two bonfires were lighted in private gardens, but of course the police had no power to interfere with these. A party of Guildford roughs, it is said, wont over to Godalming, finding their efforts here were abortive, and created a good deal of trouble. A huge bonfire was blazing away there as early as 7o'clock in the evening. There were also bonfires at Shalford,Chit worth, Gomshall, Dorking, and other places bordering on the South-Eastern line of railway. It is said that the "guys" are determined on the first possible occasion to have their bonfire and masked procession, but any attempt to carry out this purpose will be promptly suppressed. Mrs. M. Eburne (Miss Margaret Eburne, late of Sadler's Wells Theatre, under the management of Mr. Phelps), is engaged by Mr. Edmund Falconer to appear as the Witch of the Alps, in Byron's classical play of " Man fred," on Monday next at Drury-lane. —Era.

MANCHESTER, Nov. 6.—There has been a little more business in yarns than was expected, at a decline of aid. to ld. per lb. on the late high prices obtained. The market closes with a better feeling, and there is decidedly more disposition un the part of agents to execute the orders on hand at the prices now practicable. Yarns are very scarce, and this causes the market to assume a firmer appearance than earlier transactions warranted. In cloth there has been a continued depression since Tuesday, with a complete absence of business, but the engage ments of manufacturers are so large that there is no inclination shown on their parts to give w ay in price to any material extent. Where there are stocks (and such cases are exceptions) a shade less would probably be taken ; but while producers mostly on account of their engagements, are firm, buyers, on the contrary, seem but little disposed to operate. The advance which has taken place in the Bank rate of discount has had the effect of checking cotton speculations, and the raw staple is quoted Id. per lb. lower, a change which of itself has naturally a depressing effect on this market. On the trade with India the advance of discount to 6 per cent. means 61 to 7 per cent., and m th a e d e e n m ha a n y c b ed e prices at which shipments ha ve bee n expected to affect the exchange unfavourably. CARDIFF, 6th,—The iron trade is active, and the late improvement in quotations is fully maintained. The demand for steam coal is etill in advanc e of the supply.

He has been in failing health for some time past, and was in his 76th year. The inspection of the transport ship Empress, in readi ness for the embarkation of the 4th battalion Military Train at Woolwich, took place yesterday by the garrison authori ties as well as the transport officials from Deptford, who all expressed themselves in terms of admiration of the arrange ments for the convenience and comfortable accommodation of the troops. The 'tween decks appropriated for the men are over S feat in height, and the married men's quarters are remarkably well arranged. During the whole of yesterday the ship's company were engaged in receiving live stock and stowing away ammunition and powder, consisting of 3,000 quarter-barrels, in her magazine. The embarkation of the troops has been consequently deferred until this morning. The schooner transport Paddy Slater having shipped 350 tons of war Stores for her Majesty's ship Edinburgh, left Woolwich-pier yesterday morning. 7,000 shells and a num ber of cartridges and other munitions of war were yesterday despatched from Woolwich for shipment on board the Yangtsze, in the docks, for Hongkong. The following appointments and promotions were made yesterday at the Admiralty :—Lieut. Henry T. Marsden, to the Hawke ; J. F. Hayes, nominated to a naval cadetship ; J. Slater of the Curacoa, H. T. Ludlow of the Himalaya, J. Pickles and J. Adams of the Asia, J. Butchart of the Cum berland, Francis T. Russell of the Indus, T. M. Thompson of the Blenheim, for the Charon ; G. A. Moss of the Geyser, and J. M'Garahan of the Dee, promoted to be first-class assist•engineers ; James Bell (b) of the Challenger, Sopar T. Sugden of the Wanderer, and Lewis P. Lewis of the Hecate, promoted to be acting first-class assist-engineers. THE ARMY. Yesterday morning a disastrous fire occurred at the camp at Aldershot in the stables of the Military Train, adjacent to the barrack stares. The building in which the fire origi nated formed nearly two sides of a square, the angles being respectively about 100 yards and 75 yards in length. It was built entirely of timber and straw, and formed one of a number of temporary stables allotted to the horses of the Royal Artillery and Military Train stationed in the south camp. The fire was discovered about five minutes past five o'clock by a sentry on duty near the spot, and by whom an alarm was promptly given. in a very few minutes a large body of men were in attendance, and the moat strenuous exertions were used to remove the horses. Unfortunately, however, from the nature of the building, this was found to be impossible. The flames spread with the greatest rapidity and in 10 minutes the entire building was one mass of flame. The screams of the horses, which were tethered to their stalls by chains, were terrible, and only 11 were saved. The means of ingress and egress were few, and from this circum • stance, together with the quantity of forage ablaze inside, it was dangerous to attempt to enter the building. The camp fire-brigade, under Mr. Superintendent Burke, was promptly in attendance, with three engines and a large number of fire-screens, but owing to a scarcity of water, only one en gine could be brought into play. The horses in the adjoin ing stables were turned loose, and driven away from the scene of the fire, some of them roaming into the country for many miles round. A strong south-west wind was blowing, which had the effect of carrying the flames directly away from the adjoining stables, which being of the same material as the blazing building must otherwise have shared the same fate. In less than an hour the stable was burnt to the ground with 75 of the horses. The origin of the fire is not known, but it is supposed to have been occasioned by a suspended stable lamp setting fire to the thatch of the building. Fifty-two of the horses burnt belonged to the sth battalion Military Train, and 26 to the 2d battalion. Their value is roughly estimated at £2,500. This, however, does not represent the total loss, as the harness and accoutre ments within the building wore worth at least another £5OO. Sad as is the occurrence, it is only the fu;filment of a pre. diction long since made by many persons who have noticed the construction of these temporary stables at Aldershot Camp. A court of inquiry assembled in the Orderly Room, R Lines, at 11 o'clock, Lieutenant-Colonel Mitchel, Royal Artillery, president; Captain Burden, 13th Hussars, Cap tain Akers, Royal Engineers, members. The following is an extract from a letter from a Cadet in the Royal Mill ary Academy at Woolwich :—" The 23d of October was the anniversary of the great mutiny here of 1861, when the guns were loaded with bread and fired at the Lieutenant- Governor's windows. To commemorate the occasion two fellows in the A division loaded the 4-pounders at the end of the parade and fired them off as the clock struck 10 p.m. Immediately soldiers and officers were seen running about to know the reason of this alarm. The soldiers on guard at the barracks, the arsenal, and the dockyard, turned out under arms ; orderlies came riding over the common, and there was a regular bustle everywhere. It was soon found out that the cadets had been up to some of their old pranks, and accordingly the usual Saturday and Sunday leave was stopped. This created great discontent, and on Saturday, the 24th, the Roster swords were all thrown into the reservoir excepting 9, which could not be carried off. One fellow was stopped by a corporal going into the place where the swords are kept with one sword under his arm, which he said he had found lying about. As his character was by no means good, he was told that if he did not resign he would be expelled. So accordingly he resigned. The two fellows who fired off the guns were found out and expelled ; but, not satisfied with this, they called us in and asked us each individually whether we had taken any part in the disturbance on Satur day night. The invariable answer was ' No, Sir.' Then they asked whether we knew of anybody who had had any part in the disturbance, and the ' No, Sir,' invariably followed it. Three fellows declined answering at all, and they were put under arrest immediately, leave was stopped till further orders, and the whole cadet company got a double allowance of drill. The authorities, finding it impossible t.n and o take stronger measures without exasperating liar g having given the three fellows plenty of arrest followed , wie e, by plenty of confinement to the enclosure, ancl stoppage of leave to the end of the term— tliarbe decimated, o' o course, w was over, and we are now no longer fearing that weshall as it was at first given to to understand. For one thing or another three fellows have been expelled a nd seven fellows have been rusticated this term, a larger nu mber than has been known for a very long time.' ..,. MURDER AND ATTEMPTE D SUICIDE.— x eaterday morning a report was circulated in Guildford that a soldier stationed in the town had murdered his wifo and committed suicide. On inquiry it turned ova that a sergeant of the 3d Buffs, who, w ith a woman supposed to be his wife, had been staying at the Coachmakers Arms,, Norel-street, since Sunday evening, had murdered his coopanion, and afterwards attempted self-destruction. They occupied a room On the second door, and are stated to have been remarkably quiet and civil persons. On Wednesday last they hall break fast and tea, but they had no food yesterday, although the man in the course of the day ordered some potatoes .to be boiled, and stated that the woman's mother was coming to visit them. Nothing was seen or heard of either the e'"- gean t or his wif e during yesterday evening or this mor ning , came I n co nsequence of this the inmates of the ho use became rat h er uneasy.

REPORTED DEATH OF MR.PRITCHARD.—A letter from Papeiti, in the Ceurrier des Etats Oils, announces the tragical fate of the once famous Mr. Pritchard. A schooner, while proceeding from one island: to another, having on board the American Consul at the Fejee Islands, and Mr. Pritchard, the Englis h Consul, and his family, was lost, and all on board perished. As You WERE. —The borough of Tenby makes a curious figure in the population returns. The population at the census of 1851 was 2,982, and again the census of 1861 found exactly 2,982 inhabitants. There was one mor e ono female in the place in 1861 than in 1851, but there wa s o female less. A numerous party of mechanics were to be employed the whole of last night on board the iron screw frigate Achilles, at Chatham dockyard, in fitting the first portion of the shaft for the screw propeller, in which operation they were engaged the whole of yesterday, and up to a late hour the previous night. The shaft was landed a fow days since at 8 71 1031 41 31 102 53 i 1021 i 95: 5 1091 Ei 9 LTIES, TIIAMES. AN AUDACIOUS EURGLAR—IIIS EXTRAORDINARY CAPTURE. —John Brown, a tall powerful fellow, 20 years of age, was brought before Mr. Partridge charged with feloniously breaking into the dwelling house of Mr. Isaac Gabriel Costa, boot and shoemaker, of 7, Great Aloe street, Whitechapel, and Mr. Michael Meyers, umbrella maker, No. 9, in the same street. Mr. Costa said that when he came down stairs at 10 o'clock this morning he saw a man seated by the parlour window. He at first thought he was asleep. He was about to lay hold of him when the fellow made a start, and at the same time he heard a noise outside which convinced him the intruder had a confederate, and he let him go and sent for a police constable. He searched the house for the stranger, but could not find him. The shop or warehouse projects from the dwelling•house, and an entrance into the house had been effected by ascending to the roof of the shop, and opening the first floor window. He believed the prisoner was the man he saw in the house, but he would not like to swear to him. Mr. Meyers said that soon after 6 o'clock this morning he heard a tremendous screaming and cries for help in the top-room over his own, and on opening his own bed-room door he saw the prisoner running down stairs. He was about to seize the prisoner, when he said, "It's all right, sir. Mr. Walff, next door, has shot a woman, and he has escaped into your house." Witness knew that Mr. Walff did not live next door, but thought it probable such an occurrence might have happened, and followed the pris , ner down stairs, where he lost sight of him. A policeman was ad mitted, and the prisoner was found doubled up in a corner. The prisoner on leaving the house of Mr. Costa opened the attic window, ran along the parapet, attempted to climb over the roof of No. 9, and fell down into the gutter below the parapit, which saved him from being precipitated into the street below. The prisoner then entered the bed room in which the servants and children were sleeping. Ho aroused them by the noise he made, and they were greatly terrified on seeing a man in the room, and all began screaming together. William Hine, a police-constable, No. 148 H, was called into Mr. Meyers' house, and when he got up one flight of stairs he saw the prisoner in a corner. He asked the pri soner what he intended to do on entering Mr. Costa's house, to which he replied, " to take all that I could lay my hands on." The prisoner —The fact is, sir, I was half drunk. was quite sober. He is an old thief though young in years, and I have no doubt he had a confederate. Mr. Partridge remanded the prisoner for a week, WESTMINSTER. INTERPEHING WITH THE POLICE.—Mr. John Kent, a gentleman of ,property, residing at 46, Brompton-square, was charged before Mr. Selte with assaulting police-con stable 101 B in the execution of his duty. It appeared from the evidence that about one o'clock that morning the complainant, who was on duty in Knights bridge, saw a cab standing in front of a refreshment house, when, as it had been there nearly an hour, he went up to the driver and told him that he should summons him. The driver said that he was waiting for his fare. While he and the constable were talking together the prisoner came up and stated to the constable that he insisted upon the cabman staying where he was, and that ho had a right to stay as long as he did not cause any obstruction. An altercation ensued between the constable and the prisoner, who gave the constable a push. He was then taken into custody. In answer to Mr. Selfe, the constable said that he had some knowledge of the prisoner. The prisoner said that he had been in the army, and that he was now living on his property. He was very much insulted by the constable, who called him " Jack Kent." He did not know what right he had to address him, (priso ner) so familiarly. On the way to the station-house he was very badly used by the constable and another policeman, who shook him most violently. Witnesses were called for the prisoner, one of whom said that the prisoner was much shaken by the constables. Mr. Selfe said there was no doubt but that the prisoner had interfered with the constable in the execution of his duty, and that but for his statement that he had received some bad treatment he should have fined him heavily.
