ACONEY XARKET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. CITY, TWELVE o'CLocK. A more favourable feeling is evidently being daily engendered in mor etary circles, and in spite of financial difficulties abroad occasionally announced, discounters here evince their belief in future pros pects by seeking for the negotiation of first-class three months' bills at 51 per cent. The demand for ac commodation to-day has been very limited, but the private resources of bankers and others appear to be rather excessive. A further decline was apparent yesterday after. noon in s evera l o f the fore i gn exchanges, those on Paris, Frankfort, Amsterdam, and Vienna being Chiefly affected. About 50,000 sovereigns were withdrawn from the Bank yesterday for transmission to Alexandria. Theshare list of the Cremer and Wheal Abraham Mining Company is announced to close on Tuesday next for London, and on Thursday for the country. At the second general meeting of shareholders of the East Indian Cotton Agency, Mr. R. N. Fowler in the chair, a dividend of 2s. 6d. per share, free of in come tax on the 6,700 shares, being the total number allotted up to the period the profit was earned, and payable on and after the 23d proximo W as declared. The report of the directors was unanimously adopted. Two o'CLocx. At the Paris Bourse this day, according to Mr. Renter's telegram, the 3 per Cent. Routes were 67 f. 12c. There has been a very small amount of business transacted to-day in the English Stock Market, which presents a depressed appearance. An un favourable influence has been produned by a re ported further withdrawal of a large number of sovereigns from the Bank of England. Consols, however, remain at 921 for money, and at 911-, ]e he dividend, for the account.

PHOTOGRAPHING IN THE COLOURS OF THE ORIGINAL, the manipulation of the process for which has been in dispute between M. Ricco and Colonel paratti, has been published in a Milan photographic Journal, and does not after all, says a weekly contemporary, appear to be very near an accomplishment of this long de- Sired result. Suppose the subje ct a po r t ra it. Th e photo graph taken by daylight is put i s a basin of water in the dark, and subsequent operations are performed by candle light. Two solutions are prepared, one of chloride of gold and acetate of soda; the other of hyposulphite of soda, There are two basins with water and a quire of blotting- Paper. The photograph is taken out of the water, and put between the blotting-paper; then laid on a s q uare of glass, and the whole surface, ex cept the face and hands, i s b rushed over with a coating of the first solution. The parts sub jected to the action of the gold soon change into black. The Photograph is then put into water again, and left for a few Wattles, during which the operator prepares a second pho tograph, if required. The first one taken out is put into the second solution and is then washed. The time of iw. Mersion will influence the depth of colour. it is in this ' W ay by successive immersions an orange-coloured cravat will be obtained in one minute, a coffee-coloured great coat in live, violet-coloured trousers in ten, and a black coat in half an hour; while the hyposulphite of soda solution gives colour to the flesh and hair. Thus certain colours, though not quite the natural;onest may be obtained, Ibli: ,v. 24. iighnees grounds mbe has Lady in icceeded NOM in nce and e's chi" a visit Prin cess ay after' *i nc isor rides ha g ]er royal s been 113 'ales to Priaceso lay on 6 shooting ) having a by th e circa°. contem n rd Lieu . r people' r Lieut.: ;her, sou ringho n Wolfe r.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, (Sittings in Banco, before Lord Chief Justice Cockburn, and Justices Wightman, Blackburn, and Mellor.) THE QUEEN V. HURST-THE NEW GAME LAW. In this case Mr. Quain had obtained a rule against two of the Justices of East Retford, calling upon them to state and sign a case for the opinion of this Court under the 20th and 21st Vic., cap. 43 sec. 2, they having heard an in formation at the instance of Robert Sandford, the Superin tendent of Police of East Retford, against one Henry Hurst, the son of a licensed victualler in that town, under the new Game Act, for having been found in possession of game, and having been unlawfully on land in pursuit of game, and fined him £5. The ground for the rule was that there was no evidence of unlawful possession. Mr. Mellish, Q C., on the part of the justices, showed caused against the rule. Rule absolute. DIVORCE COURT. (Before the Judge Ordinary,) THOMAS Y. THOMAS. This was an undefended suit, instituted by Elizabeth Thomas for dissolution of marriage, on the ground of cruelty, desertion, and adultery. The parties were married in April 1843, the desertion taking place in 1857. Mrs. Thomas said she was living at 36, Weatbourne road, when her husband left her. After their marriage her husband worked as a dentist, at the time of the desertion he was carrying on business in Fleet-street. On the morning of his desertion he went out to business as usual, but she had never seen him since. In the April following she received a letter from him, to which she replied stating that she did not wish to hear anything more of him. He left without any provision for her, and surrounded by debt. There were four children, and she had since heard he was living in Wales. She had never received any money from him. Other evidence having been given, The Judge-Ordinary granted a decree nisi with costs. CHM' V. CHIPP. In this part heard ease the wife prayed for dissolution of marriage. The husband was a traveller to a tobacconist. The case was fully reported, and the allegations established, but the case stood over for some aMitional evidence to show that there was no collusion between the parties. Decree nisi with costs. ELSLEY V. ELSLEY AND BEECHAM. In this case the petition for dissolution was presented by the husband. The marriage took place in 1865, the sepa ration in 1861. The respondent for about 18 months be came addicted to drink, and eventually fell into very de praved habits. After she had pawned every article she could move from her home, and all the children's clothing. she left her husband and became acquainted with Beecham. Decree nisi. REDFERN V. REDFERN AND STORY. In this case the husband was the petitioner. The parties resided at Sheffield, and had been married twenty years. In consequence of Mrs. Redfern's continued absence from her home, the petitioner remonstrated with her, and the result was a separation, he allowing her £1 per week, and leaving her in possession of the house of furniture. In 1861 she sent the whole of the furniture to an auction mart, sold it off, and then formed the improper intimacy which led to the present proceedings. Decree nisi granted. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner Goulburn.) RE COLONEL WAUGH. His Honour to-day gave final judgment on the applica tion for release from custody. He reviewed all the facts of the case, and ultimately said that, as the assignees had unreservedly withdrawn their opposition, and as it was manifestly to the interest of the creditors that the bank rupt should be released from custody, to enable him to assist in preparing his accounts, he (his honour) should exercise the unlimited discretion given to the Court under the 112th section of the Bankruptcy Law Consolidation Act, and order the bankrupt's release; but, as the detaining creditor might have a right of appeal, although he (his honour) doubted whether he had, as the pruof of debt on which the capias on which the bankrupt had been arrested had been rejected by the Court, and as no steps had been taken to enforce the claim, he would suspend the issuing of the warrant for 14 days. POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day, MARLBOROUGH-STREET. FRENCH TRAVIATAS.—In former years scarcely a day passed without a number of French prostitutes coming before the magistrates of this court on all kinds of charges, with applications for summonses of every sort—assaults, threats, abuse, &c, The magistrates bound them over to keep the peace over and over again, but without any result, and only the abolition of the brothels in Queen-street and Gerrard street by the parish authorities of St. James's had the desired effect of dispersing these women from the small space of ground they formerly occupied almost to themselves in large numbers. It was, therefore, a matter of Burp ise when last week about a dczen of these traviatas besieged the court, applying for summonses one against the other for assaults. Mr. Selfe, the presiding magistrate on that occa sion, thought he could not do better than to grant to each applicant as many summonses as she asked for—at the cost of 2s. each. The consequence was that about ten sum monses were taken, cross-summonses over cross-summonses. The first summons which came on for hearing was "Marie Delisoe v. Anna Boleyn" for assault, and on the defen dant being asked how she came by her name, she replied '' That she believed she came down from Henry VIII." Tha next summons was " Anna Boleyn v. Marie Delisle " for assault ; then " Mole Bernard v. Anna Boleyn," and "Anna Boleyn v. Felicie Bernard ;" these were followed by "Felicie Bernard v. Segura" (a friend of Anna Boleyn's) and "Segura v. Marie Delisle," and some others. These cases were heard one after the other, and at last with the assistance of the interpreter at the court (Mr. Charles Al bert) the cases were got through, the result being that Marie Delislo, a most notorious French prostitute (living with a convicted thief, Pierre Maison), and Felicie Bernard were fined 40s. each and costs, the other summonses being dismissed. SAVAGE ASSAULT ON A BOY.—Ann Connor, described as a hawker, was again brought up charged with savagely assaulting a boy named Albert Fisher, 11 years old, the son of Mr. Fisher, poulterer, Oxford-market. The evidence went to show that a few days ago the prisoner, who has several times been in custody for assaults, once reoeiving a sentence at Bow-street of four months for three assaults, was in Oxford-street drunk. She fell, and was picked up by a young man and placed in a doorway. Some boys passing happening to touch her basket, she ran after them a few yards, but not succeeding in overtaking them, she turned upon the boy Fisher, who was quietly going along, and clutched him by the throat so tightly that she had to be struck to make her release her hold, and by this time the boy was black in the face, his tongue pro truding from his mouth, and fainting. The boy was then taken to the Middlesex Hospital and the prisoner to the police-station, and the boy not being able to attend, the prisoner was remanded for a week. - The boy was now in attendance, and having given evi dence confirmatory of the above, the prisoner was com mitted for a month with hard labour. CLERKENWELL. John M'Grogor, labourer, was charged with three sepa rate assaults upon two wine coopers and also the manager of the Vintage Wine Company's Stores. The prisoner, being drunk, fell against a cask of wine which was being removed from the warehouse door, and then commenced a furious attack upon eiery one around him, giving black eyes in succession to the, three complainants. He was with difficulty overpowered, and the constable required extra assistance to convey him to the station. The company's secretary said the case had been proceeded with not only on account of the assaults, but also in consequence of the vio lent threats of the prisoner and his associates. The pri soner made no defence, and Mr. Barker fined him £3, or six weeks' imprisonment. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. LEAMINGTON AND WARWICKSHIRE HUNT MEETING.—Tu ESDAY.

In the year 1773 a Welshman, named David Williams—whose body has now lain buried for nearly half a century in the church of St. Anne's, Soho, but who was then an eager man about Lon don, 35 years of age—read a paper to a small club of literary men of which he was a member, and which met in the Prince of Wales Tavern, in Con duit-street, Hanover-square, on the feasibility of founding an institution which should hold out to every worthy literary man " the kind and generous promise that his studies and efforts should not leave him in misery." The president of the evening when this paper was read was no other than Ben jamin Franklin. He rather throw cold water on Williams's proposal. " Common charities," he said, 'spring from common feelings; or if some of them should require a few ideas and reflections, they may be easily collected by ordinary and imperfect intel lects ; but an institution for the relief of misery which is so far from being obtrusive and obvicus, so far from pressing on the senses, that it withdraws from observation—is an institution whose object will be ever lost to the common classes of subscribers to public charities." In spite of this opinion of Frank lin, the other members of the litle club thought Mr. Willi a m's proposal worthy of further consideration; and the subject was adjourned to another meeting, Franklin winding up the matter for that meeting as follows :—" I perceive that our friend does not acquiesce in our opinions, and that he will under take this Institution. The event, be it what it may, will be honourable to him but it will require so much time, perseverance, and patience, that the anvil may wear out the hammer. The anvil did not wear out the hammer ; for Williams kept to his idea, talked of it right and left, tried to interest Pitt, and Fox, and Burke in it, and, although he did not succeed in persuading them the speculation was practicable, yet at last got together a sufficient number of kumble men to start the institution. It was in the year 1790 that the fund practically began its existence; for in that year it was able to make a grant of £lO 10s. to one distressed author. Since that time it has increased steadily to its pre sent proportions. In 1801 the late Duke of Somer set became its President; in 1837 he resigned, and was succeeded by the late Marquis of Lansdowne; and, on the recent death of the Marquis of Lansdowne, the Earl cf Stanhope was elected to the presidency. During the long presi dency of the Duke of Somerset, the Func had so grown by accumulated bequests, and by the increase of annual donations and sub scriptions, as to be able towards the end of his presidency to expend sums of from £l,OOO to £1,250 every year in the relief of distressed authors, as against sums of from £2OO to £350 at the begin ning of his presidency ; and since that time the an nual expenditure has not risen much. The year of greatest expenditure in the history of the fund was 1858, when a sum of £1,840 was expended on 58 applicants. The total expenditure of the fund, from the year 1790, when it made its first grant, to the end of the year 1862, has been £57,130 95., distributed in the shape of 2,962 grants to persons of literary merit, whose cases, in the course of these 72 years, had been brought before the society. The expenditure for last year was £1,475, distributed amon g 54 applicants as follows : THAMES.

They went to a publi&aouse in the vicinity where Dawson treated them with liquor. A banjo player and a juggler came into air, room and amused the party, and the generous.. her:ied sailor was well plied with liquor. A. German sailo also joined in treating the two women, who finding that Dawson had a good deal of money about him infused some narcotic in his drink and stupifled him. The women soon disappeared, and when Damon came to his senses he as certained that he had lost the whole of his money, consist ing of two £lO Bank of England notes, 15 sovereigns, and 6s. in silver. In answer to questions by Mr. Woolrych, he said he was sure the prisoners were the women who were in his company, and that when he had drunk a second glass of "old Tom," tendered to him by the prisoner Briant, he was e tupified. The landlady had since informed him that-he walked straight out of the house after the girls left, but he had no recollection of having done so, A German sailor confirmed the statement of Daw son, but he could not speak positively as to White. "To the best of recollection —my knowledge," said the wit ness, the girl White is one of them. Robert Payne, a police constable, 1 98 H, said he appre hended the prisoner Briant last night. She called herself Mrs. Beard. White was taken this morning. Both prisoners were notorious ' ihi ev es, and under the guise of basket girls committed robberies on sailors. for a week.

Soldiers on a march are apt to drink carelessly at the first brook they meet with, es pecially in hot weather ; and the Algerian leech is peculiarly adapted to escape an inexperienced eye, being as thin as thread, and not quite two inches in length, so that at first sight they have the appearance of a bit of grass. They generally attach themselves to the pharynx, and more seldom to the palate or velum pendulum; some times they will get into the nose. There have been cases of their sticking to the borders of the larynx, and even penetrating into that organ. When they have once fixed upon a place, they remain stationary and soon swell to a considerable size. They will stay in for months. Men who have got a leech in the pharynx or fauces, be comes aware of it by spitting blood ; the leech cannot always be seen, not even by pressing the tongue down. Most of the patients feel a certain inconvenience within, and a con stant desire to swallow; but in the beginning the leech is small and is not much felt. The tail of the creature some times tickles the lower part of the tongue, and causes sea, or retching. If the leech is fixed near coughing, nau sea, the larnyx, it will i m pede respiratio n , and sometimes bring on asphyxia. In the nose it will cause constant bleeding, and the patient will complain 'of an obstruction in his nostril. The loss of blood, though small in the beginning, will in the end produce anemia and general weakness. The diagnostic is easy, but practitioners who are not aware of the possibility of the accident, may sometimes be at fault. The leech will sometimes shift its place, but it seldom ge ts out of itself ; it must be extracted, or its extraction effected by remedies. When visible, they may be got out by a pair of tweezers with curved extremi ties ; but where one cannot see, one runs the risk of tear ing the mucous membrane. When the tail of the leech can be seen, the practitioner must try and catch it at once, otherwise the leech draws its tail back and disappears. If the extraction is imp oss ibl e, recourse must be had to the remedies employed for detaching leeches when applied externally. The patient is made to drink vinegar a solution of salt. Gargles, and water, or with the same substances, are also prescribed, and this must be continued for several days before the leech can be got rid of, and some times these remedies are of no avail. Salt may be blown into the pharynx, or a wet sponge introduced, having salt sticking to it. If the leech is in the larynx, tracheotomy is the only remedy. To prevent the soldiers from swallow ing leeches, they are advised 'never to drink water on a march without straining it through a piece of linen.

Of the 54, there were 22 relieved for the first time, 9 for the second time, 5 for the thiid time, 6 for the fourth time, 4 for the fifth time, 4 for the sixth time, 3 for the seventh time, and 1 for the ninth time. The lowest sum granted to any person was £lO, and there were six who received this sum ; the highest grant was £BO, made severally to three persons ; the sum most com monly granted was from £l5 to £25. The Fund from which these grants are made consists of a permanent income from past bequests of money or property calculable at somewhat over £l,lOO a year, and of subscriptions and donations made in the course of the year to the aggregate sum of about £l,OOO more—the larger portion of which is always made at the yearly dinner of the Society, held during the London seas on , un d er the pres idency of some distinguished public men. The entire sum which the Society had in hand from all sources for last year was £2,360 19s. 3d. ; of this su m £1,475, as we have seen , was spent in gran ts on the objects of the society ; and there remained a balance on hand for the present year of £289 4s. 4d. Among the disbursements was a sum of £ll2 Bs. 10d. paid for le g ac y duty and transfer of l egac y ; so that the working expenses of the society for the year, in rent, officers' salaries, and incidental items, amounted to £474 6s. ld.—in which sum, however, was not included £149 95., required from the funds for extra expenses on the annual dinner.

[The following appeared in the Third Edition of " The Sun" of last evening] ALDERSHOT, Tuesday. The court assembled at ten o'clock this morning, the members being all present, Sir G. Wetherall presiding. The following evidence was taken : Private James Reynolds examined by Colonel Sir A. Horsford, official prosecutor—l am private in the 6th Dragoons. I knew Sergeant Major Lilley. H e b ore a good character for sobriety. I never saw him drunk during my service. Colonel Crawley, in reply to the President—l have no questions to ask. Colonel Henry Dalrymple White, C,8., Assistant- Adjutant General of Cavalry, examined by Colonel Sir A. Horsford—l knew the late Sergeant Major Lilley well. I consider that he was a most excellent soldier, and one of the most sober and steady men I ever met with. The follow ing letter is from me, and I have no objection to its being read : Horse Guards, Nov. 14, 1863. Sir,—With reference to your letter of the 13th inst., I beg to state that I remember the late sergeant Major Lilley joining the 6th Dragoons, as a rect uit, at the close of 1843 or the commencement of 1844. I was then a lieutenant in the regiment, end 1 remained in it till I gave up the command of the corps towards the end of 1857, I having been then about three years and four months lieutenant-colonel, and in constant command. When 1 was a captain, Lilley was for some time in my troop. In every grade that he filled in the regiment, I always considered him one of the most excellent soldiers, and one of the most sober and steady men I had ever met with. When the regiment went to the Crimea in 1854 Lilley was left at the depot as troop sergeant major of one of the troops there. In 1855, considering him the most deserving non-comminissioned officer in the regiment I promoted him to the rank of regimental sergeant major. He joined the service troops in the Crimea in 1855. From that time until I left the regiment I saw a gr ea t d eal of him, both when I was in the office and r perceived the he was when he accompanied me, as be always did, when I wen t roun d t h e camp or b arrac k. 1 slightest a man sign abo ut wh o dk— h him ran that . would ave lead me to suppose the honour to be, sir, your obedient servant, H. D. WILITE, Colonel, To Col. Sir A. Horsford, R.C.B' A. A. G. of Cavalry. Major John Edward Swindley was recalled and cross examined by Col. Crawley with respect to the evidence he gave at the Mhow court martial.—Private Little was brought before him for allowing communication with Sergeant Lilley. As he did not consider him to blame, he exonerated him from the charge. He wrote the word " admonished" in the order sent him by Colonel Crawley instead of "released" without thinking a b ou t t h e matter. Colonel Crawley wanted something written, so he put admonished. Had he thought over tlie subject he should have written "released." He said he had never seen Sergeant Major Ldley's quarters, but he considered from viewing similar quarters, they were for married people shut up and confined. There were married soldiers and non-commissioned officers living in similar quarters ; but living in them was a different thing to being shut up i n them. Whenever Sergeant Lilley took exercise during his confinement be was walked out as a prisoner with an armed sentry with him. He knew nothing of Sergeant Major Lilley's quarters, and did not think he ever discussed the question, and stated they were similar to those occu pied by his own sergeant majors ; but from the recollection of his own sergeant major's quarters, he believed them to have been shut up in one room. He had seen Mr. Smales as late as Sunday last, but he could not say when he re ceived a written communication from him. Captain Weir, cross-examined by Colonel Crawley— He said he did not know that Mrs. Lilley was inconvenienced, or her privacy intruded upon, dur ing . the time of the arrest of her husband. He never was in either of the bungalows when Mrs. Lilley was there. He did not believe the quarters unfit for human habitation. He had heard that a woman of the regiment, a Mrs. Gibson, said that Mrs. Lilley was annoyed, but he never was aware of the fact officially. He had not heard since his return to England any remarks about the unhealthiness of Sergeant Liliey's quarters. Quartermaster Charles Woodin, in his cross-examina tion, said he could not remember the day or the date of the conversation he spoke of yesterday, but it NI as after the arrest of the sergeant major. Ho never said, in the pre sence of Lieut. Wallach, that he had written down the whole of the conversation, sergeant Gibson, of the Gth Dragoons, said he had been 25 years in the regiment, and knew Lilley fur about 18 years. He was a sober, industrious, steady, and hardwork ing man. He heard Colonel Crawley give the order to Mr. Fitzsimon to post the sentry so as he could not lose sight of Lilley night nor pay. Sergeant Major Cotton said Lilley was a married man, when Colonel Crawley re• plied, " 1 don't care a --, married or single, officer or non-commissioned officer, an order is an order, and must be obeyed." Mrs. Lilley lived in witness's bungalow for a fortnight before her death. She used to consume a bottle of wine and a bottle of brandy every day. The proceedings were adjourned at half-past 3 owing to ae sudden illness of Colonel Lodder. TIM PROPOSED EUROPEAN CONGRESS. BERLIN, Nov. 24. It is stated here upon good authority that in replying to the Emperor Napoleon's invitation to attend a Congress, the Emperor of Russia will lay stress upon his strong desire for a peaceful solution of all political difficulties, and will do full justice to the feelings prompting the Emperor Napoleon's plan. The Russian Emperor, however, is of opinion that even before assenting to the proposal of a Con gress, the precise objects of its meeting should be laid down• OUTWARD AMERICAN MAIL. GALWAY, Nov. 24.
