A very good inquiry for accommodation has been experienced this morning in the general discount market, Where the rates continue firm, 31 4 per cent. being the average charges for the best three months' bills. The opinion is now prevalent that soon after the payment of the October dividends the directors of the Bank of England wilt inaugurate st movement that will give the commercial classes increased facilities in the negotiation of their securities. A further sum of £27,000 in gold was taken into the Bank yesterday. The last week's railway receipts ascertained up to this day are in round figures as under : .1863. 1862.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET. AN INFURIATED SOLDIER —Henry Dower, a private of the 2d battalion of the Scots Fusilier Guards was charged before Mr. Knox, as follows : Mr. Mcßean, 332 A, said—At half-past nine last night I was called to the Crown Tavern in Heddon-court, Regent-street, and there found the prisoner making a great disturbance. The prisoner was put out of the house, and a comrade he had with him got him as far as Vigo street, when I was again called by the bystanders to pick the prisoner and his comrade out of the road, where they had both fallen. I pursuaded the prisoner to go away, but he refused, and knocked me down. Three or four soldiers coming by took the pri soner as far as Burlington-street, but not liking his vio lent conduct left the prisoner, who returned, and tried to force his way into the tavern, when the landlord gave him in charge. The prisoner again knocked me down and kicked me, and I had to send for four or five constables to help me to take the prisoner to the station owing to his vio lent conduct. Sergeant James Read, the prisoner's sergeant, said the prisoner's character was irregular. M'Bean—The kick the prisoner gave me was in the chest, and I can this morning scarcely breathe. The pri soner smashed my uniform hat, and also assaulted other constables at the station. Mr. Knox—l will have the case put back for a short time and let the landlord of the house attend, and (to Inspector Silverton) have the constable seen by the surgebn. On the case being resumed, Inspector Silverton handed Mr. Knox the following certificate : " I hereby certify that police-constable 332 A is suffer ing from fractured ribs, "H. T. It. BUSH, M.R.C.S. "Warwick-street, Sept. 10." Mr. Edwin Wilsher, landlord of the Crown tavern, Heddon-court, Regent-street, said the prisoner came into the house with a gentleman, The gentleman then left, and prisoner created a great disturbance. He did not see the prisoner strike the constable. Mr. Knox (to Dl'Bean)—You acted very temperately, and I am grieved to see that you are injured. Go home and get plenty of rest. I shall remand the prisoner for a week. BANK Or ENGLAND. HALF.YEARLY MEETING-(THIS DAY.) The usual half-yearly court of the governor and proprie tors of the Bank of England was held this day in the Back Parlour ; Kirkman Hodgson, Esq., governor, presided. The minutes of the last half-yearly court having been read and confirmed, The GOVERNOR said he had to inform the court that that was one of the quarterly general courts, held in accordance with the charter, and that it was also one of the half-yearly general courts appointed to he held by the 12th bye-law for the making of a dividend. He said the net profits of the half year ending the 30th of August last were £669,208, making the amount of rest on that day £3,671,505, and then after providing for a dividend of £t 10s. per cent. the rest would amount 10 £3,016,620, The court therefore proposed that a half-year's dividend of interest and profit be made on the 10th of October next of £4 10s. per cent., without de duction on account of income tax. The motion having been seconded, A PROPRIETOR was of opinion that the time had now arrived when some effort should be made to increase the dividends paid by the Bank of England to something like that paid by the joint stock banks. The latter paid divi. dends in some cases to the amount of 17 or 20 per cent. per annum, whilst the Bank of England only paid about 91 per cent., with a paid-up capital amounting to 14 millions and a half. He also considered the amount of rest was more than sufficient, and that at least some portion of £3,000,000 should be distributed amongst the proprietors. The GOVERNOR said a statement was made at their last meeting of the difference of dividend paid by the Bank of England and that of the Joint Stock Banks, and in arguing upon that difference, it was not a fair calculation between them to take the per centage on the paid up capital of the Bank of England. They were bankers to the public, and it was of the utmost importance that there should be national confidence in them. He reminded the Court of the old saying " safe as the Bank," and was of opinion that it had arisen in consequence of their large capital and known resources of meeting everything they put their name to. It was quite a mistake to suppose that every legitimate and proper advantage was not given to their customers. All the conveniences granted by other establishments were to be had at the Bank of England. He thought the divi dend declared a very fair one. (Hear, hear.) The motion of the Governor was carried unanimously. al g are ed to, Thehaving u also susual been The GOVERNOR said that as the present rate of dividend exceeded that of last half •y ear i t was necessary, in confor 7th Geo. M., cap. 43, ctshoofuPldarblieamceonntfirmed by the ballot in man ner, and that th e C ourt s h oul d t m t h h e a t t y e w us t the t h e m t s h e a e r m y A e be adjourned until Tuesday, the 15th instant, at four o'clock to take the determination by votes in print or writing of the question on the resolution for the dividend. A resolution to that effect was also agreed to. A PROPRIETOR muved a vote of thanks to the governor and directors, and congratulated them on the increase of dividend. The GOVERNOR acknowledged the compliment, and the proceedings terminated. MARKETS--This Day. MARK-LANE.

A TEETOTALLER'S RELAPSE.—Esther Graham, a mar ried woman, was brought before Mr. Leigh, charged with being drunk and disorderly, and assaulting police-constable Ebenezer Meads, 488 A. The constable stated that, at seven o'clock last evening, the prisoner was turned out 01 the Nelson public-house, in Back-road, Shad well.. She was very noisy, and attempted to break the windows of the public-house. He requested her to move on, which she refused to do, and made use of the most foul and blasphemous language. He took her into custody, and she threw herself on the ground, and kicked and plunged fearfully. He procured assistance and took her to the station-house. The prisoner, in defense, said she had been a teetotaller three months, and during that time she had not tasted any spiritous liquors, wine, or beer. Yesterday some friends called upon her and made her drink some gin and ale. It took an effect upon her, and she could not say whac she said or what she did. If the magistrate would let her go she would be sober for three years. Mr. Leigh—You are fined three shillings. CIGARS AND CRINOLINE.—Esther Isaacs, a Jewess, was brought before Mr. Leigh, charged with smuggling slbs, of cigars. Mr. John Penny, an examining officer of Excise, pro duced a huge crinoline, and said the prisoner was a pas senger in the Britannia steamship yesterday afternoon, and in and around the inside of her crinoline he discovered the five bags produced filled with cigars. The production of the crinoline and bags created immense laughter. The prisoner, a foreigner, said she brought the cigars from Holland for her husband to smoke during the ensuing Jewish holidays. Mr Selfe—Your husband could not smoke 5 lbs. of cigars in one week. You are fined 505., and, in default of pay ment, ono month's imprisonment. Patrick and Michael Mur p h y , brothers, were charged They wit w with stealing ere so ma empty chests from a grocer's s t a bl e allowed to go at large for a week, and their mother promised that they should be forthcoming on Thursday next. Two prisoners were brought up on remand and dis charged. The above constituted the whole of the business this morning, and were disposed of soon after 12 o'clock. Mr. Leigh remarked on the lightness of the calendar, Mr. Browdler, the second clerk—lt is the lightest day I remember during the 12 years I have been here, and I can only account for it by the thunder storm and heavy rains of last night which kept people within doors. Boulogne Nearly Fifty Years Ago. Boulogne in 1815, forty-eight well-sounded years ago, was a most insignificant and unsavoury fishing-village. The upper town, which is the ancient and better one, was not very much different from what it is now ; but the lower town consisted chiefly of the Grande. Rue, de l'Ecu, the Rue tent Perd tent Paye, and a couple of straggling streets filled with fishermen's huts, ill and irregularly built, smutty without and smoky within. There was then scarcely what could be called a harbour ; there was no pier whatever. There was no cus tom-house, but a wretched shed, exposed to the four winds of heaven, into which the few passen gers who arrived by sailing-boats were quickly huddled to be gruffly examined. Boats then rarely departed from Boulogne more than once a week, and the day of departure was never certain. I have known passage boats wait for passengers, or for a wind, three or four days together—nay, occa sionally a week. Everybody then travelled by way of Calais; and even at Calais, in winter-time, the passengers were often not more than a dozen and seldom above five and twenty. In the principal port of debarkation in France you were then dragged into the harbour by haggard old poissardes, har nessed with ropes to their work, who carried your luggage to the hotels in wicker fish-baskets, sus pended from their half-broken backs. Boulogne, like Calais, was then lighted by tallow candles, let down by a cord and puliey from either side of the street. In Calais, in those days, it was, with these rude appliances, just like darkness visible; whereas at Boulogne, on what is now called the Port, the Qui de la Denane, the Rue tent Perd tant Paye, you could not grope your way without a lantern. There were in 1815 but three decent hotels in Bou logne—the Hotel d'Angleterre, in the Rue de l'Ecu; the Lion d'Or, in the same street ; and the Hotel de France. Now there are, at least, twenty hotels, great and small,of which a dozen are very tolerable and four or five excellent. In the early days of which I speak, bedrooms at Boulogne were charged one franc, thirty sous, and two francs a-night, according to the size and floor in which you were placed. Breakfasts, plain, with coffee and an egg or two, were from twenty-five to thirty sous, and dinner at the tables d'hote, with vin ordinaire, from two francs, ten sons, to three francs. Now bedrooms are two, three, four, and five francs, according to the size and floor; breakfasts are two and three francs, and four francs, and dinner at the tables d'hote from three and a half to four, five, and six francs. Yet the a ccomo d a ti on i s b u t a degree better, and e r e s t t h e e a coo o keryi n s g by no means so good as it was eight and-forty, f orty , or t hi rty years ago .

The class of English visiting Boulo gne i n the ten years from 1815 to 1825 was highly aristocrati c , though t an t s at p et s demi-. , and bl ac kl eg i n t h e mascu li n e gender ; but, th ough fashionable now as i n a rep in the f em i n i ne not so ari s t ocra tic and , past generation, the Eng lish sojourning at Boulogne in 1863 are, as a whole community, more respectable than at any former time. It is true there are still a few scores of Pro visional Committee-men left there, the remnant of those of 1845 and 1846, and a few scores of black legs and lavanters, who have fail e d t o pay up their losses at Tattersall's ; but what 70 or 80 black sheep among an English populati on o f 7 ,000 or 8,000, and a general population of about 32,000 P The number of English at Boulogne, after the peace of 1815, scarcely amounted to 800, an d / doubt whether it amounted to 1,000 in 1823 ; but then, among these eight hundred or a thousand, full a twentieth were scions of the peerage, being either honourables or titular Irish or Scotch peers. Now the peerage and the scions of aristocracy are much less fast livers than in the days of George 111. and George IV., when there was scarcely a young man of rank or fashion that aid not gamble at the clubs, on the turf, at cock-fights, or on the prize-ring. In the moral character, therefore, though not in the rank, of its visitors, Boulogne has iwproved, METROPOLITAN CATTLE. The supply of beasts on sale here, to-day, was only mo derate. Prime breeds sold freely, at fully Monday's ad vance in prices; but inferior stock was in slow request, at that day's rates. With sheep, the market was but moderately supplied. Prime Downs and half breds changed hands at the extreme rates of Monday, the top price being 5s 4d—in some instances, 5a 6d per 81bs. Inferior breeds, met a slow sale, but at full prices. The few lambs on offer changed hands at about previous rates. Calves —the supply of which was but moderate—moved off slowly, at previous currencies. The highest quotation was 4s 8d per 81bs.

Departure of the Channel Fleet from the Clyde. Admiral Channeliille the Bank o n T ues d ay afternoon , Sydney Da under os, the c. o B c . ,shniloemfrtfulynthdaefufTforaßilet a wo r 0 - f o'clock. It was the intention ' o f the admiral to have sailed on Monday, but, to the violence of the gale, he deemed o w ing it prndent to remain till Tuesday. The morning o pened fi ne, all trace of the severe gale which visite the West Coast on the previous day having passed away- About ten o'clock, however, there were indicat ions of " dirty weather," and shortly after that hour rain began to fall heavily, accompanied with a ugh wind from the west. It was again feared that the ships would not leave their anchorage that day, but all surmise was ended shortly thereafter by the heavy volumes of smoke emitted from the funnels of the several ships, indi cating their getting up steam. Shortly before two o'clock signal was made to " weigh" from the flag ship. and bustle and activity reigned throughout the fleet in preparing for sea. Hundreds of men, in answer to the boatswain's whistle, busied themselves in a thousand and one employments that a ship of war requires to be executed ere she can leave her moorings. The pre liminary duties for casting loose having been executed, and everything in readiness for weighing anchor a second signal from the Admiral sent the men to the capstans; and almost as soon as the signal flags flattered from the masthead, the huge iron cables that hnd held the vessels to their moorings during the 8 days they have floated on the waters of the Firth, rose swiftly through the hawse pipes as they were gathered into the leviathans. The Resistance was the first to get under weigh, which she did in capital style, leading down the Firth ander easy steam. The Liverpool followed closely in her wake. Next came the flag-ship Edgar, her double deck tiers of guns and towering masts contrasting imposnigly with the square rig of the ironsides, which speedily followed. As the other ships of the squadron swung round to their positions, steam was put on, and ere little more than three-quarters of an hour had elapsed since the signal from the flag-ship had been given the whole magnificent fleet was bearing down Channel under steam. A signal from the ad miral's ship, as the fleet stood opposite Gourock Bay, caused the Liverpool and other lead ing ships to lie to, the flag-ship thereafter leading the van, followed by the Liverpool, Emerald, Re sistance, Black Prince, Warrior, Defence, and Royal Oak, in line. They proceeded in this order round Kempoch Point and beyond the Cloch, when the Edgar, Liverpool, and Emerald, after exchanging signals with the other ships, put about and returned to an anchorage off Battery Point, opposite Fort Matilda. The other ships proceeded under full steam, and were seen off Cambrae Heads steaming at a rapid rate. No demonstration took place on the fleet leaving. Flags fluttered from the flag-poles belonging to the several villas along the shore, and on being dipped as the admiral's ship passed this was courteously acknowledged by the flag-ship. The scene in Gourock Bay was a grand one, per haps the finest spectacle the fleet has afforded since its arrival. Such an assemblage of war ships awaiting the passing of the admiral's ship has sel dom been seen in the Clyde, and once seen can never be forgotten. Upon passing Toward Point a battery of guns was fired as the fleet passed out ; but no reply was given by the fleet. No reason can be assigned for the return of the three wooden ships; for although the weather was somewhat stormy, it was not so tempestuous but that such crack ships might have safely proceeded. The gunboat Trinculo, tender to the Edgar, never left her moorings, and still remains at her anchorage. At the Westminster Police-court, on Tuesday, a man, who gave the name of George Turner, was charged with obtaining money fraudulently by the sale of an advowson which he did not possess. Towards the close of last year he advertised two advowsons for sale, and the Rev. J. Cook, of Hood Church, near Birkenhead, entered into 'correspondence with him as to one of them. This led to an interview, and Turner took Mr. Cox to Hardwick, near 'Wellingborough, which was the living he professed to have for sale. He showed him the church and the village, and afterwards an agreement was made that Turner, as the agent of Mr. James Wilson, of Clapham-common, should sell the advowson to Mr. Cox for £2,625, of which £3OO was to be paid down. The sum was paid down, but Mr. Cox's solicitors, failing to get any con the police, who could find no Mr. James Wilson . Turner veyance of the advowson , p ut the matter into the hands of was apprehended at Bath, where, it is said, he was living as Sir Henry Seymour. In the course of the hearing it came out that about the time when he professed to sell the advowson to Mr. Cox he was negotiating, as he alleged, for its purchase from the real owners, He was remanded till Tuesday next, and bail was refused, as several other charges w pre vi f e s e i been stated r a d o s f t o a t fht againsteea d ln 39 intuhhr murderous r l theuly the journals Archbishop f of Europe Utrecht t h t --A MYSTERY.-- on he It e wa s r h t e h a t O S HOO TING AN ARCHBISHOP.--A attack at his country house, near Bois le Dun. The allegation was that he had been shot in the small of the back, that the ball had been ex tracted without his receiving any serious injury, and that no trace could be found of the assassin. Some surprise was expressed from the first that a shot should have been fired in the archbishop's house in the middle of the night without some of his followers laying hands on the mur derer. And the astonishment of the public was greatly increased when it came out that the police were not in formed of the crime till twelve hours after its commission —i.e., at four in the afternoon, whereas the clergy of the town knew of it at an early hour in the morn ing. It is, moreover, affirmed that the surgeon who ex tracted the ball was asked to ke e p the affair secret, but he told the archbishop th a t his professional oath compelled him to make a report to the judicial authorities. It is ascertained that no robbery was committed in the house. piece of a special alman the purpose of reckoning The archbishop has be en interrogated b y the ma g istrat es , but nothing could be extracted from him to further th e ends of justice.

When pressed by ques ti o ns the Archbishop (M (Mgr. Zwyzen) said he suspected a certain interdicted priest. But the magistrates, after in quiry, have come to the conclusion that there is nothing against the individual in question, and that the indication must have been made for the purpose of putting the in quiry on a false scent. What interest the archbishop can have in making a mystery of this event is at present but a matter of conjecture. A POLICEMAN CHARGED WITH MITIWER.—A police-constable at Bury (Lancashire) has been committed to the New Bailey, Manchester, on the charge of murdering his wife, in February last. In that month the body of a woman was found in the Bolton and Bury Canal, at Pendleton, about two miles from Manchester There was a bruise on one arm, but nothing to excite suspicion of foul play, and the result of an inquest was the finding of an open verdict of "Found dtowned." Up to the time of interment the body had not been id en tifi e d. It has now transpire d that the prisoner left Bury with his wife the night before the body was found, their supposed intention being to visit the wife's sister, who resided at Pendleton. The prisoner, who was iu plain clothes, re turned to Bury the same ni ght, without his wife. In answer to inquiries he told some people that she had gone to Ireland, and to others he mentioned other places. The wife's sister, residing in Pendleton, became very uneasy a bout her sister, and hearing of the body found in the canal went to inspect the clothes, and identified them as belong. j u g to the prisoner's wife. The matter was then communi cated to the Bury police, who apprehended him, took him before the magistrates on Tuesday, and was by them sent to the New Bailey on remand till Monday next. Meantime the police are engaged in getting up evidence against the prisoner, and it is expected application will be made to the Secretary of State for power to exhume the body of the woman found in the canal. MEN DELSSOHN's SKETCH OF ROSSINI.—I called an him (Hilli er ) early yesterday morning. Who sat there ? Rossini, big and stout, in a charming holiday humour. I really know few to equal him in wit and fun when he chooses ; we were laughing the whole time. I have promised him to have Sebastian Bach's mass, and some other things, performed for him by the Cecilia Society ; it will be something to make Rossini admire Sebastian Bach I However, he is for doing like the Romans at Rome, and howling with the wolves. He declares himself enchanted with Germany ; and, if he once gets the wine list anywhere near the Rhine, the waiter has to show him to his room, or ho would not be able to find it. He tells the most laughable anecdotes of Paris and the musicians there, of himself and his cwn compositions, and Ia so defe rential in people's presence, that one might positively think him in earnest, had one no eyes to look upon his crafty face. But there is esprit, and liveliness, and wit in every feature and every word ; and whosoever will not allow him genius need only hear him preach, and he will see reason to alter his ophaion,-.:-.afendassohn's GorresPondence, SECOND EDITION, SUN OFFICE, HALF-PAST 4 O'CLOCK.

The Journal de St. Petersburg of to-day denies the rumours published by the foreign press con cerning new arrangements by Russia relative to Polish and German affairs. Speaking of the alleged radical reforms and new alliances, it says : "The conclusions drawn from these p reten d ed n ews are as false as their premises. In P o l an d the Emperor, whose sentiments on the Poli s h gees _ tion have not changed, considers his first duty 4 to be the re-establishment of solid and material order, passions. From a diplomatic point of view, th e founded on the ground subverted by anarchi ca l Government remains determined to fulfil its inter national obligations, and at the same time to main tain the rights of Russia within the limits o f treaties. As regards German affairs, Russia sym. pathises with the union of the strength of Germany, based on the interests of all the States of which that country is composed. Russia has n o more reason to provide against the dangers which might result to her from Germany, than Germany has to put herself on her guard against dangers coming from Russia." The rumours which are current have, therefore, no foundation, and evidence extreme indidcretion, if not malicious premeditation. A LADLE-FULL OF PUNCH.
