PIPER A E T AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. A quieter demand is reported in discount circles, and the rates are a little easier. The St. Andrew from Quebec has brought £5,400. The accounts from the manufacturing districts for the past wee k h ave genera lly been more satis factory. There has been an active demand for both cloths and yarns at Manchester, without, however, any change in prices. The woollen trade of Leeds, Bradford, and Huddersfield has continued to show increased animation, while a seasonable business has been done in most descriptions of lace and hosiery of Nottingham and Leicester. In the hard ware districts, viz., at Birminghtim, Sheffield, and Wolverhampton there is no particular change to report. The prospectus has appeared of the T•lew Mans feld Copper and Silver Mining Company, with a cE :oital of £lOO,OOO, in £lO shares. It appears that the a ltectors have obtained the Mathilde mines, contLini,,,,4 a bout 1 , 200 statute acres, in the Harz Mountains. The geological formation of the pro perty is precil'ely the same as the old Mansfeld, which has been wen:ked so extensively and pro fitabl y for the last 1 00 years, and the yield of which at present is about £B , oo` in silver and £16,000 in copper per week. Th e formation differs entirely from ordinary mines, being an actual deposit of copper schist, and it is known to exist only in the Mansfeld districts, at the foot of the Harz Moun tains, and New Brunswick, in British America. The existence of this raineral deposit in the New Mansfeld decline has ben proved by competent engineers, who report very favourably regarding the prospects of the company. The directors of the Port Phillip and Colonial Gold Mining Company have received, by telegram, from Malta, the following advices in a ziticipation of the Australian mail, from their resident director, Mr. Bland, at Melbourne, giving the result of the month of April last : Quantity of quartz crushed, 3,210 tons; yield per ton, gold, 12 dwts. Receipts, £3,240; payments, £1,550; profit, £1,690; Re mittance, £2,000. Two O'CLOCK. At Paris this morning, according to Mr. Reuter's telegram, the French 3 per Cent. Rentes were heavy at 68f. 55c. Very little business has been transacted to-day in the market for the English Funds, and the quota tions have continued very firm, owisg to harvest prospects, the tendency of the rates of discount, and other favourable considerations. Consols for transfer have been maintained at 92 1 1 a for transfer, and at 928 for the account. There has been a downward movement in several of the principal Foreign Securities, and business is less active. Turkish 6 per C.,nts., 1862, have receded to 67i I; do. Consolides to 504. t; Mexican to 371- Greek to 35 7 , ; do. Coupons to 161 K ; Spanish Passive are 33: i; do. Certificates, 12! 8 ; and the Confederate Loan has declined to 4 die. a prem. The dealings in the Railway Share Market have been very limited; in some instances, how ever, there has been a slight improvement. Lancs• shire and Yorkshire, North Eastern (Berwick), and South Easterns have improved 55., and Great Northern 10s. The Foreign and Colonial undertakings show no change of importance as regards prices. Bank and Miscellaneous Snares are dull, but exhibit little variation in value.

The several defendants, Reginald Herbert, John Bir kett, Joseph Edward Saville, Robert Shawcross, Charles M'Dougall, and Charles Mott, were charged in a great n umber of counts with riot, and creating a breach of the Peace at Cremorne-gardens. The whole of the day, up to the hour of our going to press, was occupied in the examination of witnesses for the defenee.

MARK LANE. Owing to the probability of an early harvest, very little business was transacted in wheat in the -leading country markets held on Saturday; and prices, in some instances. favoured buyers to the extent of ls, per qr. Spring corn sold heavily, at drooping currencies, and flour commanded very little attention. We learn from New York that there was a fair export demand for flour, but wheat and maize met a dull inquiry. On the Continent, the corn trade is devoid of animation. The arrivals of English grain up to our market, last week, were small. The imports from abroad amounted to 8,102 quarters of wheat ; 4,282 barley ; 59,389 oats ; 362 beans ; 1,760 peas ; 13,793 linseed ; 3,552 oilseeds ; 2,719 maize; 8.30 sacks and 4,330 barrels of flour. The supply of English wheat received fresh up to this morning's market, was very small. The transactions were chiefly confined to a few forced sales, at Is. per quarter beneath last Monday's currency; but some miller's operated to a limited extent to meet immediate wants, and where such transactions were effected previous quotations were fairly supported. There was a good supply of foreign wheat on the stands All descriptions were in limited request, and prices had a downward tendency. Floating cargoes of wheat and other grain moved off slowly at late rates. The supply of home-grown barley on sale was very small, and the show of foreign qualities but moderate. However, all descriptions met a slow sale, but without leading to any change in the rates current last week. We have to report a dull trade for malt, on former terms. With foreign oats the market was extensively supplied. No change took place in the value of good and tine corn, although the demand ruled inactive. Interior produce was very dull, and sales were frequently effected at low rates. Beans, the supply of which was only moderate, changed hands slowly, at last Monday's currency. Peas were in moderate supply and slow request, at late rates. Both in English and foreign flour sales progressed slowly. In some instances prices ruled slightly in favour of buyers.

From our own grazing districts. the arrival of beasts fresh up this morning was seasonably extensive as to num ber, and in good condition. Although the attendance of buyers was rather large, the beef trade was in a sluggish state, and, in some instances, prices gave way 2d per 81bs. However, a few prime Scots and crosses realised 5a per 81bs. At the close of business a clearance was not effected. The arrivals from Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northamptonshire comprised 2,400 shorthorns, ecc ; from other parts of England, 700 various breeds ; from Scotland, 70 Scots and crosses ; and from Ireland 100 oxen and heifers. There was an unusually large supply of sheep in the pens. The quality of most breeds was good. The mutton trade was somewhat heavy, at a decline in the quotations of 2d per 81118. The highest figure for the best Downs was 5s per 81bs. Good and prime lambs moved off steadily, at full cur rencies. Otherwise, the lamb trade was in a sluggish state, on former terms. Prices ranged from 5s 4d to 6s 4d per Blbs. We have to report a dull sale for calves, the supply of which was moderate, at Thursday's quotations. The pork trade was heavy.

L. Rusell to read the affidavits that had been filed by the trustees affecting the character of the countess. Mr. Green, Q.C., for the children, said—The young ladies objected to the affidavits being read. Mr.Malins—l don't intend to read them. Mr, Green—Before you go into court I must object on the part of the young ladies now verging into womanhood that the language of the bill should be put into their mouths. The bill was to have been amended by the " Infants" being struck out as plaintiffs and inserted as de fendants. The Vice-Chancellor—lf I am to go into the matters of these affidavits I must hear them in private. Mr. Malins—l am not going into these affidavits. Mr, Bacon (who appeared for Lord Vernon) objected to portions of the affidavits. The Vice-Chancellor -- I don't wonder, Mr. Bacon, that you should be in some difficulty. Mr. Malins—lf affidavits put in by the other side are true, then the countess would be a most improper person to be entrusted with the further care of the children, but in the affidavits the countess has put in she distinctly denies the assertions made against her. The information embodied in the documents put forth by Lord Vernon had been picked up by a person occupying the position of a travelling courier, who had been despatched by his lord ship, It had been understood that the unfortunate lady should have .been allowed to see her daughter at Turin, and she had goue to that place solely for that purpose, but according to a telegram he had received he found she had been denied that privilege, although the unfortunate young I..dy was said to be at the point of death. He did there fore, hope, that his Honour would direct that the mother should see the dying child. By the terms of the agreement entered into by the parties, Lord Vernon engaged to pay the lady £l,OOO for the support of herself and children, but there was also a clause which directed that when either of the daughter's attained the age of 21,0 r married,there should be a sum of £lOO per annum for such child, and that the countess should receive the residue. There being now only three children, it was clear that the countess had a right to receive £7OO. It must be quite evident that the sum of £4OO as at present paid her, was totally inadequate to enable the lady to meet the increased expense entailed on her by these proceedings, and therefore he should apply that the order which had been made a few days ago, stating that £lOO was to be the sum, should be augmented by the addition of other £3OO, making .C7OO, to which the lady was clearly entitled under the terms of the deed. He did net think that in addition to the wrongs and sufferings the l a dy had undergone, Lord Vernon had the right to inflict the penalty of poverty upon her, or t o place her in such a position as to be totally unable to meet her engageni e ut s . Lord Vernon was rich and powerful, the countess poor and powerless : and under these circumstances he hoped his Honour would grant his application. He was perfectly willing that a commissioner, not a travelling courier, but a gentleman of some standing at the bar, should bo appointed to go to Cairo, and ascertain the truth or falsehood of the allega tions of the countess. Nothing surely could be fairer than that. The learned gentleman was about to enter into some explanation relative to the present position of the family of the countess, when Mr. Green objected. The Vice-Chancellor—All I have to do is to see that the helpless wards of this Court are protected, and that no in jury should be done them by their being dragged in some shape or other before the Court. Why was not the ar rangement that was come to the other day, and which seemed to be acceptable to all parties, not carried out ? Mr. Malins—The order was not drawn up, The Vice-Chancellor—I made the order with every consideration for the poor lady. What has since fanned the matter into flame ? Mr. Malins—l know of no flame. The Vice-Chancellor—Then what is all this about ? 3.1 r. Matins—The lady denies the assertions in:the affida vits that have been tiled by the other side short! Sue has a right to be heard. The Vice-Chancellor—A perfect right, but immediately anything, occurs to affect the children then I shall object to its being heard in public. There was no:hing, in the order to injure the poor lady. Mr. Malins—lf the charges made against hero are un ft,unded, the lady ought to be restored to her position, I ask that she may receive the £7OO she had an undoubted right to, instead of the sum of £4OO. I also suggest that an investigation might be made into the charges made against her. That she might be appointed guardian to her chil dren, but that all questions relating to that subject should be decided when the case came on for hearing. That posi tive direction be given to enable the countess to see her dying daughter ; also that leave be given to file interroga tions, and that trustees be restrained from dealing with the £l,OOO otherwise than laid down on the deed. The Vice-Chancellor—lt was arranged that the countess should have the month, viz., £66 13s. 4d,, in advance, and the order touching the selection of guardians should be issued in the meantime. Mr. Malins—The order was to be issued after I had read and digesLod the affidavits that were put in. The Vice-Chancellor—Well ;- have you done so ? Mr. Malins—l have read then; but they have been hard NEWGATE AND LEADENHALL. The supply of wheat is far from extensive. However, the trade rules heavy, and prices are lower than on Mon day last.

The learned gentleman was then about making some fur ther reference to the children, when The Vice Chancellor said he would not allow it. But so far as the matter between , the Countess and Lord Vernon was concerned, he would have nothing private. Mr. Bacon, for Lord Vernon, said the Countess was altogether unfit to have the guardship of the three daughters, the eldest of whom was 20 and the youngestl6. They were left by the mother in a totally unprotected state by their mother at Cairo. Immediately that circumstance became known to Lord Vernon he de spatched a trustworthy person to Cairo to supply the im mediate wants of the young ladies, and to take them to a place of safety. He provided them with clothes, and ultimately thoy were taken to Turin, where they were at present. [The case was proceeding when we went to press.] POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day. MARLBOROUGH- STREE r. DISORDERLY CONDUCT IN REGENT-STREET.-Mr. Hugh Brodie, 24, Princes-street, Cavendish-square, gentle man, and Mr. James Goodhall, 77, Albany-street, architect, were charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt by Inspector Bowles, of the C division, with being drunk and behaving in a dis orderly manner in Regent-street, at an early hour on Sun day morning. Sergeant Stephens, 11 C, and Inspector Bowles deposed to seeing the defendants going along Regent-street about two o'clock on Sunday morning scraping and knocking with a stick and umbrella at the shop shutters, and making such a noise that it could be heard half a mile off. Seeing the police coining they made off, but ran into the arms of the inspector, who, with the sergeant, took them into cus tody. Both defendants denied being drunk, and Sergeant Glass, the acting inspector who tuok the charge, was called, and he said - they were both drunk. The defendants were fined 20s. or a month each. DARING STREET ROBBERY,—James Smith, a fellow who gave the address 9, Bedfordbury, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with robbing Mrs. Elizabeth Metzler, wife of Mr. Metzler, pianoforte maker and music publisher, of Great Marlborough-street, of a purse containing money. Mrs. Metzler was crossing Regent-street on Saturday afternoon, when the prisoner made a snatch at her purse, which she was carrying in her handy and made off with it, but an alarm being given the prisoner was pursued by Joseph Barker, a timekeeper, and secured and given into custody. The prisoner was remanded. SPORTING NOTES, There are five meetings this week, viz., Liverpool, Abing don, Stamford, Hungerford, and Pontefract, and there will consequently be no lack of sport. The two first-named clash, as do the other three, and judging from the attrac tions advertised for Abingdon by Mr. Verrall, tha new Clerk of the Course, it will doubtless prove a most formi dable antagonist to Aintree, which will derive its main sup port from the Northern school of sportsmen. The accept ances for the Liverpool Cup prove the excellence of the handicap, and the earnestness with which Mr. Topham has returned to the active discharge of his duties. Most of the top weights have paid forfeit, and the starters, by all ac counts, will commence with Joey Jones, and include The Knave, Fantail, Barchettina, Oakapple, and perhap Catch-'em-Alive. That Joey Jones is a good horse I have no doubt ; but I question very much his being able to give away the weight to Barchettina and Oakapple, for over Aintree every ounce of weight tells. The Knave ran in Scotland so well when with Bst 51b he beat Caller Ou, 9st 71b, that he must now have a first-rate chance, although many think the distance a trifle too far for him. On paper Oakapple reads as well as anything, but there are many maintain that he was only third in the Ascot Stakes on sufferance; and, if this be the case, I cannot think him good enough for the winner. Barchettina stayed so well as a two-yr-old, and has such staying blood in her veins, that she seems bred for this course. Lord Stamford has, according to report, backed her very freely, and, as he would not do so without a cause, I must follow him. Fan tail, which seems to be the Simon Pure of Mr. Perry, ran so well forward at York as to make me think she has a great chance now, for Carisbrook was sufficiently forward at Ascot to give the stable a correct idea of her chance. If Catch'em Alive is supported he will represent me alone but, as there are doubts about his starting, I shall en deavour to forestall the judge in his decision by placing them in the following order . FANTAIL BARCHETTINA .. 2 OAK APPLE The Knowsley Stakes ought to be won by the Caliope colt, as he has a 71b allowance, and the Liverpool St. Leger by Borealis.- Abingdon takes place on Tuesday and Wednesday with a very imposing bill of fare, all the races already closed hav ing received excellent entries. The race for the Trial Stakes, for which there are no fewer than 22 horses, will be a most exciting affair, should Umpire, Queen of Trumps, and Livingstone meet, but as the Queen will visit Aintree in preference, the battle must lie between the other pair, and I think Umpire deserving of the preference. Thirty eight horses are weighted for the Craven Handicap on the mile course, those best in being Manrico, Zeloo, and Cheer ful. The Berkshire Handicap has an acceptance of ten, of whom Flirtation and Turn cf Luck are both penalised. Knutsford is also enaged at a weight he ought to win with, but as he is likely to be reserved for Goodwood, Turn of Luck will, doubtless, repeat her success of last year. The Abingdon Stakes should be secured by Vacuna, who takes a 31b. allowance. My opinion at the present time is that linutsford is the best investment for the Goodwood Stakes, as the owner has got his money all on. A FRESH MAN. LAW INTELLIGENCE—This Day, COURT OF CHANCERY. (Before Vice , Chancellor Stuart.) THE COUNTESS DE LA SETTA V. LORD VERNON. This cause, which has attracted so much public interest, came before his honour this morning for hearing, on ad journed motion that the Countesi de la Setta should have access to her children, the appointment of guardians, and that the trustees should be restrained from appropriating any part of the sum of £l,OOO secured to the Countess and her children, as set out in the deed. _ WESTMINSTER. REFORMATORY INSTITIITIONS.—A respectable looking working man from the sister isle, solicited the magistrate's assistance. Applicant said he wished to procure the release of a female child from a convent where she was at present de tained, and had thought it best to see a magistrate on the subject. Mr. Selfe—Whereabout is the place at which you say she is detained ? Applicant—ln Bloomsbury. Mr. Selfe—lt is one of the reformatory or industria, schools for females. Applicant—Yes, your worship. Mr. Selk—l have no power to interfere—a magistrate has no control in such matters. Persons are sent to these institutions in the ordinary way, and there have to remain for the appointed time. Applicant—But may not they be taken cut if they are ill? Mr. Selfe—That is a matter fur the consideration of the Secretary of State, to whom alone you can apply for any remission of the original order. Applicant—The little girl is my child, and I very much !sigh to get her eut. At the time she was got in there I had no power to assist her, but things are altered now, and I wish to take her out s Mr. Selfe—Why ? Applicant—She is labouring under very bad health, and I don't see if I am able to take care of her and maintain her why she should be kept there a prisoner, and I wish to have her. Mr. Selfe—l must refer you to the Secretary of State, who alone can order the liberation of the girl. THAMES. Tun SHIPWRIGHT Ix SEARCH OP HIS WlFE.—James Black, a shipwright, about 30 years of age, who was not ' quite sober, was the first of 40 night charges which the magistrate commenced hearing at 12 o'clock, after disposing of the applications. The prisoner held on to the dock, and looked as indignant as possible. Police-sergeant Bridgland, No. 39 K, said that he was in attendance at the Eastern Music-hall, Limehouse, on Saturday night, when the prisoner, who was intoxicated and very noisy, presented himself, and wanted to go upstairs to the concert-room. He told the prisoner he could not be allowed to enter the concert-room, and must leave. The prisoner said his wife was in the concert-room, and wherever his wife was he had a right to be, and added, if you try and prevent me going up-stairs I'll knock your b--- head off. At the same time the prisoner made a blow at his face and missed him, but struck his hat, which fell off. He seized the prisoner, and quietly removed him from the building. The prisoner again put himself in a fighting attitude, and said "I'll smash you up unless you let me pass, and again knocked his hat off. He then took the prisoner into custody and locked him up. The prisoner said he was in search of his wife, and hear ing that she was in the Eastern-hall he went there after her. Mr. Woolrych--Why did you not go there sobe r ? ._. The prisoner —I was vexed—very much vexed, and got drinking, The police sergeant seized me by the neck and nearly strangled me. Bridgland was recalled, and said he seized the prisoner by the arm and not by the neck: The prisoner —I went after my wife. Mr. Woolrych—You should keep your wife at home. I believe you have acted very badly to the officer, who has done his duty very properly in keeping a drunken man out of a house of public entertainment, and particularly out of a concert room. People who go to a place of amusement to enjoy themselves must be protected from the intrusion of drunkards and noisy characters. You aro fined 10s., and:in default cf payment one week's imprisonment. THE FEMALE SCHOOL OF ART, The distribution of prizes to the successful stu dents belonging to the Female School of Art in connection with the Science and Art Department of the Committee of Council on Education, took place on Thursday afternoon at University College. The Viscount Stratford de Redcliffe presided and distributed the prizes, and on the platform were the Hon, Frederick Byng, Professor Westmacott, Pro fessor Donaldson, the Rev. E. Bayley, &c. The theatre of the college was crowded by the students and their friends. The Chairman, in opening the proceedings, said he highly appreciated the objects which the Female SchoJl of Art desired to secure. The fact of the school being under the special patronage of her Majesty was one of the many illustrations of her Majesty's benevolence, and showed that the school was deserving of her countenance. A very consider able degree of importance was attached to the in stitution. It was useful not only to the young women who attended it, but to the nation at large. Wherever the fine arts were cultivated they were found to humanise and elevate the mind. Besides, the education which the young women obtained enabled them afterwards to obtain employment by which they could honourably maintain themselves. The improvement of ornamental design in manufac ture was a matter of the greatest importance, and that result would be gained by the prosperity of the school. It was the desire of the friends of the school that it should be self-supporting, and he would greatly rejoice when that result was accom plished. (Cheers.) He understood that if 30 or 40 additional pupils were obtained the school would be enabled to support itself. He hoped that in the inter val that must elapse between the withdrawal of Go vernment assistance and the time when the school might be expected to maintain itself it would b e well supported by public subscriptions. (Applause.) He was glad of th e s t ea d y progress it had made, and it would give hi m great satisfaction to h ear that it was Prospering to the satisfaction of its friends. ag.

The most extensive conflagration that has oc curred for a considerable time past at the west-end part of London commenced about ten o'clock yester day (Sunday) forenoon, and was entirely extin guished at five o'clock. The building in which the fire commenced was termed the Portland Bazaar and German Fair. It stood in Langham-place, Regent-street, and had another entrance in Great Portland-street, St. Marylebone. The building covered a space of ground nearly 1,000 feet square. It was only two floors high, but the property contained in the place was more than an ordinary observer would imagine. For instance, the Titian and other large pictures, to which so much praise has been awarded, were in one portion of the bazaar. The front entrance in Lang ham-place was rented by Mr. H. M. Whitaker, the well-known importer and exhibitor of foreign birds, insects, and reptiles, whose collection formed a great attraction of this favourite and fashionable lounge. The Bazaar, as most public places of amuse ment are, was built in a manner to afford the great est space. Rows of massive iron columns rose from the base, and upon the top of these, stretched along the immense width of the building, were cast-iron girders. Extending towards the top, and which formed the beautiful rcof, were placed vertically another row of iron pillars, and upon them rested an equal number of iron girders, as in the floor below. Each available space in this large range of premises was fitted up at great expense with fancy shops and stalls, which had been presided over by 40 or 50 young females, all of whom have been thrown out of em ployment, and those who merely rented the counters or shops have been bereft of all their property; and as far as at present can be ascertained not a single stall-keeper or exhibitor was insured for a penny. The front entrance, as before stated, was in the tenure of Mr. Whitaker, and in this compartment —the grand entry—were birds valued at over £2OO ; the foreign cabinets, insects rare in this country, &c., his own property, are roughly esti mated in value by that naturalist at over £6OO. Besides, he had left in his charge a celebrated talk ing cockatoo belonging to Lady Glentworth, which was over £lOO in value. Upon entering this part of the building the birds from all parts of the world were found either upon their perches or lying on their sides at the bottom of their cages dead, clearly indicating that they had died from suffocation. A number of lizards, which Mr. Whitaker stated were of great value, had upon the smoke entering their cages crawled under some hay, and by rolling them selves np in it managed to escape suffocation, and as the fire was being got under they appeared as lively as if nothing had happened. The discovery of this fearful fire appears to have been made at ten o'clock in the forenoon. This bazaar being surrounded by the houses in Mortimer street, Great Portland, and Little Ridinghouse street, it was feared that every house near would have been speedily levelled with the ground. In a very brief period the Marylebone parish engine. at tended, as well as numerous others of the London Brigade, one from Hodges's distillery at Lambeth, and the two land steam engines, by Shand, Mason, and Co., that carried off the only double prize at the Crystal Palace last week. The fire-plugs of the West Middlesex Company having been drawn, a bountiful supply of water was obtained, and the land steam-engines being fully up at 100 lb. pressure to the square inch, they , as well as nearly a dozen manual-power machines, were called into operation. By this time the ba ck portions of several houses in the sarronndi the I) ng streets were in flames, Mr. Inspector Coombes, of pe of division of police, and Mr. Insp eotor of s Life ncer, from the Royal Society for the Proteotio G a ble aspect of Fire, came up, and seeing the t f h ° : ln as aistance of the the conflagration sent off for °oda, and fortunat e police from most parts of t it was that they did so, for thous ands after thou sands of persons, som e of tha t high class little used to bear the pressur e of a London mob, instead o f driving to church, lined the r oadwa y s in order to w itness the progress o f the flames. The two land steamers by Shand , M ason, and hand -wor e engines Co., and the ha - had the hose f ro m each so stretched round as to enable the fire men mass of flames to attack the at each point, for s tated that the fire it should be st had by that perm • d t e d the extensive paletrapremises of Mr. Green, in Lang ham .place, as well as the ladi ' d' esrea mg. rooms, and also those of Mr. Maurice in the same thorough fare, and at the same time the extensive show rooms of Mr. Greene, dealer in antique furniture, buhl, and looking -glasses —No. 24 in Mortimer street—were likewise b • urning with the greatest im p etuosit y — looking -glasses, and mirrors, some as high as ordinary rooms, were flying asunder, pic tures were blazing, and cabinets of great cost were falling a prey to the fury of the fire. The water colour studio, which contained a most extensive collection of painti • - ngs, was also at the same time wrapped in flames, as well as a photographic gal lery at the top of the same establishment. FATAL ACCIDENT.--On Saturday a shocking accident occurred at No. 19, Broad-street-building,s, Broad street, City, by which a man named Thomas Freeman lost his life. It appears that the premises were being pulled down to make room for the works of the North London Railway. Deceased was standing on the top of a wall, when by some means he fell headlong down, and was within a few inches of crushing p o lice -constable 121, of the City police, in his fall. As it was he came on his head on the pavement, his brains were dashed cut, and his ribs broken. He was removed to the hospital, when life was, of course, found to be extinct. The escape of the police constable was most miraculous, the body of deceased almost grazing m in the descent, The Aston Estates Bill was read a second time. ROYAL COMMISSION. At fifteen minutes after four o'clock Colonel CLIFFORD, the deputy-usher of the black rod, advanced to the table and summoned the Speaker and the house to hear the Royal assent, by commission to several bills. The Speaker re turned at half past 4 o'clock. BANKRUPTCY AND COUNTY COURT RE TURNS.
