The standing order being aust.ended for that purpose. The object of the Bill is to constitute the fraudul.>nt use of the medals by non-exhi bitors and o hers who have not received awards from her Majesty's commissioner; a misdemeanour under the new Merchandise Maras Act, 1862. It is anticipated that a measure of such vast commercial importance will have nnan mous support in both houses of Parliament. THE EMPRESS EUGENIE AND THE EMPEROR NAPOLEON.—The Empress, says the Lady's News paper, gave afete the other afternoon at Villeneuve I'E tang for which upwards of 150 invitations were issued. A night festival was discussed, and proposed to take place next Monday, in which the lakes, or rather ponds, of the impress's little villa and domain were to play an im portant part, the present fashion having set in favour of boating by moonlight, or, for want of a moon, by elec tric light ; but the orders for the fete hay, been countermanded, and her Majesty and the Prince Imperial live very quietly at St. Cloud, showing themselves at rare Intervals only through the alleys of the Bois when the Em press is obliged to drive into Paris. The Emperor, mean while, is going through the course of Vichy waters, which at this moment boast of the presence of M. Fould, the Price de la Moskowe, Prince Joachim Murat, the fount and Countess de Litta, and a great many personages of high rank and station. The Emperor, as usual, inspects the new promenades and improvements going on by his orders at Vichy, and purchased a few days ago a piece of ground adjoining the chalets he is this year inhabit ing, and which belongs to Strauss, in order to form plantations round his new habitation. A detachment of Grenadiers of the Guardjare in attendance on his Msjesry, and form a camp near the chalets occupied by the Em peror and hie suite Some theatrical representatious took place the other evening, at which the Emperor and his guests were present ; and he is mentioned in a pr.vate letter irJui Vichy, as devoting many of his leisure hours to the correction of the last proof sheets of the first volume of his " Life of Caesar." M. Plon, the prin. er, is at present there, and it is supposed brought hie Majesty the proofs to be correc'ed by his own hand. _ _ MR. LINDSAY AND MR.

'45 10 at st JO '4O I THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, JULY 18, 1863. POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day. MARLBOROUGH-STREE r. EXPOSING INDECENT PRINTS FOR SALE.—Francis Carroll, a young man in the employ of Mr. Brown, stove maker, of Cranbourn-street, Loicester-square, and who gave the address 12, Archer-street, Windmill-street, was charged before Mr. Yardley, by Sergeant Langley, of the Detective Department, z_cotland-yard, with exposing indecent and obscene prints for sale in the Haymarket. Sergeant Langley said that while at the corner of St. James's -court, Haymarket, the prisoner came up to him and said, " I have got something cheap for you, for a shil ling," at the same time handing him a printed paper, which after he had read a few words, be found. to be of a most dis gusting and obscene nature. The prisoner then left him and went into the shop of a tradesman, and on following him in he heard him ask the tradesman to buy the print. The tradesman refused to do so, and he then told the pri soner thw he was a police officer, and that he should take hiie into custody. On asking him whether he had any n - pc of the prints about him, he said he had not, but on searching him he sound in his pocket four other prints of a similar d scription. At the station the prisoner said a friend had given them to him to sell, but he would not say who the friend was Prisoner (snivelling) said be had been in the navy, and had now got a souatton in Cranbourn-street. He would rather pay a mouth's salary than be sent to prison, as he had no idea it was a criminal offence. One of the prints was handed to Mr. Yardley, and it was of the most obscene description. Mr, Yardley having made some strong remarks on the prisoner's conduct in hawking about such disgusting prints, fined him 405., or 14 days in the Hou:e of Correction. The prisoner thanked the magistrate for fining him, and seemed much pleased at escaping imprisonment. Barns, the gaoler, shortly after informed Mr, Yardley that the flue had been paid by a person against whom he had applied to the magistrate at the court some months ago tor improper conduct to children. NON-PAYMENT OF A PIKE REWARD. -Mr. Joseph Oliveira, of 22, Hanover-square, was summoned by Mr. Ge3rge Badderly, assistant overseer .of St. George's, Hanover-square, for neglecting to pay a fire reward to Stephenson Martin, Edward Goodchild, and James Bridge, engine keepers. It appears that on the 18th of June flames were seen issu ing from the chimney pots of the defendant's house, and an alarm being given, Martin and Goodchild, of the King street station attended, when Mr. Oliveira refused to admit the firemen. A gentlenum living at the next door, how ever, requested the firemen to come on to the roof of his house, fearing that it would become ignited, and the fire men cl.d so, when Mr. Oliveira, who was on the top of his house, again refused t , ) admit the firemen. Tbe case came on on a firmer day, and was heard in Mr. Oliveira's absence, but in consequence of his representing to the magistrate that he had been in the waiting room of the court, and never heard his name called, it was ordered to be reheard. Mr. Oliveira did not now attend, but sen t his wife. After the case had been gone into again the magistrate ordered the reward and costs to be paid, stating that a good deal of trouble had been given in the matter, the summons having been reheard in consequence of a statement made to him which ho was bound to state he did not altogether believe. LAW INTELLIGENCE—This Day, COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner lane.) IN RE ROBERT PEABOBY. The bankrupt was an innkeeper at Kettering. This was an application for order of discharge.

He endeavoured to induce him to go away but found he would not. Mr. Selfe—What did he do ?

Mr. Selle—How was he making the noise which first induced you to interfere ? Policeman—lt w,is about a pianoforte. Mr. Seite—About a piano torte? Policeman —There was a pianoforte being played in one of the houses, and the defendant wanted to know why I did not stop it. Mr. Selfe—What did you say to that? Policeman —I said I could not.

" THE HOUSE OF CALL FOR M OURNERS."— Mr, Alfred Ginnonean, the landlord of the Bell and Mackerel public house, Road-side, Mile-end-road, appeared before Mr. Par tridge to answer an information and summons exhibited by Inspector Griffin, of the K division, for having his house open for the sale of ale, beer, spirits, and wine on Sunday afternoon last, between the prohibited hours of 4 and 6 o'clock. Two police constables of the K division proved that up.. ards of 100 persons were admitted into the Bell and Mac kerel rublic-house on Sunday afternoon from 20 minutes past 4 o'clock until a quarter before 5 o'clock, and they were supplied with whatever they required in the shape of beer, ale, spirits, and tobacco. Mr. Ginnonean, in defence, said the Bell and Mackerel was a house of call for mourners. (A laugh.) Mr. Partridge—Merry mourners I suppose, Will you be so good as to explain yourself? Mr. Ginnonean said his house was near the Tower Ham lets Cemetery. There were a great many funerals there on Sunday afternoon, and many of the mourners came a very long distance, snd after burying their friends and relatives, stepped into his house to slake their thirst. Mr. Partridge—Thirsty mourners. (Laughter.) The policemen were recalled, and said that persons not mourners were admitted. Working men being in the neighbourhood, and with clothes not of the sable hue, were admitted, and supplied with beer, spirits, and tobacco. Mr. Ginnonean said mourning coaches, hearses, and mourners stopped at his hcuse daily, but on Sunday after noon, between 3 and 5 o'clock, he admitted no one unless introduced by an undertaker (laughter), and he put the question to every one who entered—" Are you an under • taker or are you a traveller P" Mr Partridge said the defendant could legally supply a traveller with refreshments between three and five o'clock —they must, be bone fide travellers. Mr. Ginnonean said the followers of funerals came from Westminster, Westminster Abbey—(a laugh)—Bermond sey, Lambeth, Southwark, and other places. Mr. Partridge was inclinel to think that people coming from the places mentioned, after attending funerals, would be travellers ; but here the objection was, that under the pretence of adm tting undertakers and mourners, it allowed the indiscriminate admission of the public. Mr. Ginnonean—Nut till the undertaker presented his card. (Laughter.) I wish to know what constitutes a traveller ? Mr. Partridge said he was not bound to give a general definition of the word traveller. If publicans admitted per suns in their houses on Sunday during the prohibited hours, they must use their own discretion, and be cautious. Mr. GinLonean —Are not undertakers and mourners tra yellers ? Mr. Partridge—lf they have come a long distance, and under certain circumstances, they would be travellers. It is the duty of ihe landlords of the houses of public enter tainmsni to exercise proper discretion. Inspector G, an said the case had been arguccl before Mr. Woolrych, who fined the defendants under precisely similar circumstances. Mr. Partridge did not care what had been argued before. Every case must stand on its merits. It was irregular to interpose any remants. Mr. Ginnonean said a funeral from Bermondsey would sometimes be attended by 500 persons, and Inspectot Griffin explained tbat ac regarded Irish funerals there would be from 200 to SW or 50u persons attending upon arriving in the cemetery, although only a few left the deceased person's dwelling with the bony. The poor Irish collected ou the route. and came from Golden-lane, St. Luke's, Aidgate, Whitechapel, Poplar, and Rateliff. Mr. Partridge said he must fine the defendant who ad mitted the general public. Mr. Ginnonean wished the case to be postponed to call an undertaker living at the West-end. Mr. Partridge—What is he to prove? Mr. Ginnonean—That I said to him, " Aro you an undertaker ?" and to the mourners, " Are you a traveller?" Here is the undertaker's card. Mr. Partridge did nut think the undertaker's evidence would make any difference whatever, but he was very re luctant to convict eny man until he lied heard the whole of his defence. _ Mr. Ginnonean—May I serve travellers ? Mr. Partridge--Yes, bona fide travellers. Mr. Ginnonean—What COllB Wiles a traveller Mr. Partridge--I decline to give a definition of the word traveller. _ _ Ciinnonean—Are :undertakers and mourners tra vellers ? Mr. Partridge—Under certain circumstances, and if they travel a long distanc e they may be considered bona fide travellers. It depeno on c i r cumstances. At the earnest., r e quest of the defendan t, Mr . Partridge postponed his decision until Saturday next. Tht! on. P ok.r 9.r. d M rs. J.

The invasion that stirs them to no martial ardour stirs them to demand en immediate armistice, and to support the demand by a course of reasoning which proves that the love of liberty has not yet been trampled out of the heart of the American people by all the measures which Mr. Lincoln's Administration and his brutal military satraps have adopted for the purpose. Three important meetings have been held since General Lee's occupation of Northern soil, which show how the current of the popular feeling has begun to flow, or rather to rush—the one at River bead, in Long Island, which was attended by up wards of 3,000 people; the second at a place called Dingman's Ferry, in Pike county, Pennsylvania near the conterminous lines of the States of New Yurk, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania, and which yeas attended by delegations from the Peace Demo cracy of each of the three, estimated to number 12,000 persons; and the third at Middletown in the State of New York. The resolutions adopted at the first were an able, logical, consistent, and courageous exposition of principles which, if adopted now, would end the war immediately, and which, if acted upon by Mr. Lincoln when he came into office, would have rendered the war impassible. While recognis ing the Federal Constitution as an eminently just and well-balanced embodiment of political wisdom, they denied that it warranted coercion against any State that chose to secede from a Union which, in the estimation of the people and the Legislature and regularly constituted authorities of such State, had ceased to be desirable or in accordance with its wishes or interests. "If from any cause, real or imaginary," said the first resolution, " any one or more cf the States of the Union, in the exercise of that Sovereignty which is their highest attribute and the tole ground of their existence as States, shall see fit to withdraw from the obligations im posed and the benefitsconferred by the Constitution, we recognise no grant of power in that instrument to the Federal Government, created by it, or to the combination of Stales left after such a secessien, to compel such seceding State or States to return to a Union which they have deliberately repudiated, and which, deriving its whole life from the princi ple of consent, dies on the instant that consent is withdrawn." This is clear and emphatic. It is the doctrine which the South has made good at the cannon's mouth ; and which to all present appear. ante will be made good by similar agencies at the North and the North-West, if the Federal Govern ment do not seize the favourable moment before it have been too greatly humiliated to propose that peace with the South which may otherwise be ex torted. The second resolution affirmed in a similar spirit that the State of New York was a sovereign power, subject only to the Constitution of the United States, so long as her people shall elect to be governed by it. The filth resolution declared, " That the dictates of a common humanity, the best interests of the entire country, and the good repute of a republican form of government demanded a cessation of hostilities in this iratricidal war, and neither false pr;cle nor political etiquette should stand in the wuy of a possible mutual reconciliation or reconstruction of the Government." The eighth denied the constituiioual legality of the Conscrip tion Act, and called upon Governor Seymour to ar rest its execution within his jurisdiction until the question of its validity had been decided upon be the Supreme Court, pledging the meeting to sup port the Governor in any justifiable steps he reigui take to resist so palpable en infraction of the Cot,- stitution of the State of New York. Other resolu tions denounced the attempts of the Federal Ad ministration to suppress the right of the discussion, and signalised fur particular odium the illegal ar rest and exile of M.t. Vallandigham, as an outrage not only on all the principles on which American institutions are founded, but as a gross invasion of the rights of the Sovereign State of Ohio, by the Constitution and organic law of which it was r e t :: preesly enacted that no citizen should be trans r same. The resolutions are in every way ti e or nand. out of the State for offences committed within the and are palpably the work of nOl l2 remarkable for the presence of Mr. Ferna ndo o the argu. The two other meetings were chiefly the reiteration by that gentlemeavnenf though peace meats in favour of . peace, he first advanced at should end in separation, which inNew York. aH ow, ,, ed n 0 osvf no n_n c t tac iyn blood? 0. t hei tae c hl cal o w ns:. we sr country ot re l it v islhb e seett i ort t itfin.. tyd t ee h btrlttd : , and teueeeneetat'isnegCan we ever reconcile of discord ?

Wood was hopeful that not many months, or even weeks, can ttthhh eee subjects -A b e 'en American brought would pass before the exhausted people would realise the impossibility of any longer continuance of New York continues apathetic, and gold—snirabde dicta—continues to fall, although the " Waterloo " of the war commenced at Gettysburg on Wednesday, with great loss to the Federals, and was renewed on Thursday and yesterday with results as yet unknown. The apathy is . not to be explained, except on the supposition that the popular disgust with the war is so excessive that most people would be glad of a Con federate victory, provided only it were great and de cisive enough to bring peace in its train. The fall in gold, in face of actual and prospective disaster, is only to be accounted for by the fact that specula tion in stocks has, to a great extent, superseded that in the pr'cious meals; and tht.t Mr. Chase has it in his power to bear the market whenever he pleases within a margin of four or five per cent. Latterly, whenever the news from the seat of war has been ominous of impending evil, gold has gone down, because the agents of the Treasury, acting on instructions from headquarters, have gone into the market offering it for sale in ten times greater amounts that anybody wished to buy it, or than the legiti mate wants of foreign commerce required. But it is obvious that Mr. Chase's powers in this line are limited, and that the barometer of men's fears, es marked by gold, compared with paper money, based upon a credit that may be overthrown in an hour, is only subject to manipulation of this kind in com paratively calm weather. When the storm bursts Mr. Chase will have no more power to control it than he has to control the physical convulsions of the atmosphere. Much alarm is represented as prevalent in Wash ington and Baltimore, but New York cares little. The shops are closed to-day in honour of the " Fourth of July," the flags are waving from all the vesssels in the harbour, and from the church steeples and public buildings and private dwellings of Broadway in the mode customary with this great city when it makes bolyday. The steamboats are with pleasure seekers betaking themselves to Long Branch, to Staten island, to Long Island, to the Highlands of the Hudson, to the pleasant shores of the Sound, to every place within easy distance, where weary men of business and toil can have day's rural enjoyment with their wives and chil dren, and forget alike their private care and their public sorrow.

CONFESSION OF MURDER.-A soldier of the 50th Regiment, named Louis Sayers, stated a few day s since to Pr ovofit-Sergeant Wort, of the 22d Regiment, that he could net rest, and be wished to be given into the hands of the police for the murder of a girl named Ellen Smith, in Epping Forest. He said that he had been living with the Young woman in London, that she was 14 years of age, and that she pressed him se much to marry her that on the 27th of September last he took her down on an excursion to Epping Forest, and while there he stabbed her with a knife, and buried the body in the forest, in a spot which he knew well, and could point out. After consideration he was given over to the police, who are at present investigating the affair.

(From the Times' Correspondent.) NEW YORK, July 3. The remarkable apathy of N ew York continues undisturbed. According to all present indications, not even the capture of Washington w ou ld startle i; into action. Perhaps, were General Lee to take pos session of Philadelphia, and exact from its prim Quakers and prosperous Germans an imperial ran som of 10,000,000 or 20,000,000 dole. in gold, not greenbacks, New York might be awakened to the necessity (not of sending 200,000 or 300,000 sturdy and patriotic volunteers to repel the invaders ; but) of casting its voice in favour of an immediate cessa tion of hostilities and a conference to debate the terms of peace and separation. There is no warlike enthusiasm whatever. Many regiments march up Broadway, returning frcm the war, but few march down to take part in it. The bankers and merchants do not, as they did six or eight months ago, open their purses to offer hundreds of dollars in bounties to volunteers, and if they did the volunteers would not answer to the call or be captivated by the money. Even the orators of the Royal League's are silent and refrain from offering to their imperilled country the cheap aid of their " Buncombe." An English gentle man who has been absent from New York for six weeks, shooting the wild buffalo on the far wrstern prairies beyond Kansas, returned yesterday. Having learnt from the newspapers on the way that Bath more, Philadelphia, and Washington were menaced 0y one of the most stupendous invasions recorded in history, he naturally expected to find this great city in a state of intense commotion and filled with all the warlike pomp, parade, and bustle that usually attend tne crises of a nation's fate. But he found nothing of the kind. No drum-beat or trumpet cdl ; no meeting of legions for the attack or the 6e fence ; no cessation of ordinary business; no appeals, oral or verbal, to the patriotism of the multitude; no meetings of grave city dignitaries to discuss the danger and the means to avert or lessen it; no council of the venerable heads that direct the finan cial and commercial enterprise of one of the chief cities of the world ; no knots of earnest citizens gathered at street corners in earnest colloquy on the dangers of the present or the chances of the future were to be heard or seen. Everything was precisely as before; the same busy men and frivolous women blockaded Broadway in the pursuit of business or pleasure ; the same bounding life and exuberant prosperity displayed themselves at every turn ; the equipages of the " shoddy" contractors rolled through the fashionable avenues, or hurried to the Central-park to display the too gorgeous finery, the too pretentious jewelry of the fair occupants, grown too suddenly rich to be quite at ease in the unusual position into which the good fortune of their hus bands and fathers and the bad fortune of their coun try had thrust them. And this unconcern of all classes is so remarkable that every one sees and admits it. The newspapers moralise over, but do not understand it, not one having any other expla nation to offer than that the people are disgusted with the war and with the Government, and hope that Gen. Lee will take Washington and make a prisoner of Mr. Lincoln, and so end a difficulty that seems to present no other so feasible and so happy a solution. so blood , " a war, and that the very violence of the hurricance was the best guarantee that it would not be of long continuance. At the same time he gua riled himself against the supposition that he approved ti:e invasion of Pennsylvania by Gen, Lee. It was an assault upon the sovereignty of Pennsylvania which he condemned, and w hi c h h e h o p e d wo uld be igno miniously repulsed—by P enns yl van i a : a way of putting the ca se w hi c h t h e astute spea k er meant to be, and which was, a vindication of that principle of State r i g h ts which the South was in arms to up hold. These three meetings were not only attended all r by influenti a l people of ranks s and classes, but they were so unan i mous that not a dissentient voice or hostile hi ss or interruption nwas raised at any T period of the pro cee di ngs. various the e rtie u s . that have hitherto ruled an d di stracted are crumbling to piec es . T he party by )1r Union are 13" Fernando Wood, and ab ou t t o b e j oined in increaAsed. vigour and influence by Mr. Vetlandigham, is the only party that is growing and consolidating ; and whatever may be the case with the Republicans, the War Democrats appear as if they would speedily cease to be. They must either join the Republicans, to whom their war principles affiliate them, or they must take service under Mr. Fernando Wood, who by a hold stroke has made himself the foremost man of the North, and enunciated a policy which is sure to prevail in the long run—and which ought to prevail in the short run—unless social anarchy and national bankruptcy have greater charms for the Northern people than peace and liberty, and a compact though diminished territory. The only prominent member of the Republican party who has publicly spoken since the invasion of Pennsylvania is Senator Chandler, of Michigan, a gentleman of extreme taneticism on the subject of emancipation, of great influence over the mind of Mr. Lincoln, and particularly noted for his hostility to Gen. M'Ciellan, to the Copperheads, and to peace. No apostle of extermination has been more ardent than he, Not even Miss Anna Dickinson or Mr. Wendell Phillips has expressed more pleasure at the prospect of a negro insurrection ; and what, it may be asked, does this most ultra of American Doc trinaires and Jacobins think of the present aspect of American affairs ? Does he despair of the re. public ? Not at all. Does he think that the South is the stronger of the two contending giants ? Not a whit, On the contrary he thinks, with an op timism that would do honour to a contractor, that circumstances were never so favourable for the North as now, and that so soon as the army of Gen. Meade confronts the army of Gen. Lee it will whip it. " While I appreciate," he adds, " the sufferings of Pennsylvania, and while I appreciate the 'scare' and regret it, yet I have never felt more hopeful than I do to-day of the final overthrow of the rebellion and the final success of the Union arms. I see the awe rising, and see this black flag of rebellion fading, fading, fading, and I expect to to see it in three months from to-day lying in the dust never more to rise from its low position." Mr. Chandler sees a great deal, but others less imagina tive have seen that this old period of "three months" was to have wrought eighteen months ago—a year ago—three months ago—many wonders that have never come to pass ; and have learnt to disbelieve al together in " three months," and any thing they may produce. Mr. Seward is the father of the phrase, but little can he have thought of the progeny of illusive hopes, false assumptions, deliberate self deceptions, and unmitigated lies that were to grow out of it. It has been the " Jack o' Lantern " of Federal statesmen, and has led them into quagmires of political disgrace, from which they cannot escape without dirt upon their reputation. July 4.
