ITONEY MARKET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. Continued activity is apparent in discount circles, and the demand to-day has been increased by the completion of the account in foreign stocks and railway shares. Four per cent., however, is the minimum quotation in the open market as well as at the Bank of England. A further sum of £4,000 in gold was taken into . the Bank yesterday. The subscription list of the Venezuelan Loan will close to-morrow. The operations in the Foreign and Colonial Pro duce markets during the last few days have been of a very restricted character. The dealings in tea have been deferred until the public sales, which take place to-day. Sugar has slightly receded in value, while coffee, rice, and fruit have remained at ( almost previous rates. The tallow market has been dull, and prices have shown a downward movement for both present and forward delivery. Two O'CLOCK. At Paris this morning, according to Mr. Renter's telegram, the French 3 per Cent. Rentes were '6Bf. 90c., ex Coupon—heavy. At the yearly meeting of the South Australian Banking Company, Mr. Devett in the chair, the report of which an extract has already been published in Me Sun, was unanimously adopted. The chairman stated that the new premises had been acquired for £4,000, and that they had thereby considerably improved their establishment. The directors would, with the approval of the share holders, still further increase the reserve fund which now reached £lOO,OOO. The balance from the year's account was £52,856 after the necessary deductions had been made, and a dividend of 10 per cent. free of income-tax, was declared. Speculation in the market 16r the English Funds continues quiet, but the quotations are steadily maintained, Consols being 92 k for transfer, and 921 for the account. The Foreign market is the only department of the house which now presents an active appearance.

LAW INTELLIGENCE--This Day. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH. : (Before Chief Justice Cockburn.) RAMSAY V. STEWART -CHARGE OF LIBEL. Captain Alexander Ramsay, of Morne Park, near Newry, formerly in the 42d Highlanders, brought this action to vindicate his character from charges of the moat unfounded character that had been cast upon it by the defendant, Captain Stewart, also formerly an offirer in the same regi ment. The defendant married some years since a Miss Frazer, the sister of a Captain Frazer, who was an officer in the 42d Highlanders, and they were in India to gether. The defendant was unknown to the plainliff till July last, when he came to Packolet, the seat of General Chesney. during his absence, to forcibly carry away his wife. Packolet w as near t o M orne Park, and General Chesney and his wife h a d as k e d th e p l a i nt iff to protect Mrs. Stewart from her husband's violence should it be necessary, and he promised them to do so ; an d it was i n consequence o f that interference that the libels complai ne d o f were e written. The first libel complained of was to the following e ff ec t :--" In consequence of the gross outrage I suffered yesterday from yeu I lose not one moment in placing myself in the hands of a friend; and it now becomes my painful duty to express to you, for which no doubt you are pre pared, that your conduct was that of a coward, a violation of the usages of society, and unbecoming the character of a man of honour and a gentleman, and that if necessary you shall be denounced and branded as such by me on all occa sions. You will therefore please communicate with me unde r cover to Mr. Hart, 32, Hollies-street, Merrion-square, Dublin." The action arose through the quarrels of husband and wife, the friends of the latter placing her under the protec tion of a third party. The wife yesterday said she left her husband through his ill •usage, and be this morning stated that he had the most right to complain of the treatment he he had received from her friends and relatives. The case was not concluded when we went to press. His Holiness, according to the Armenia, during the present month will hold a Consistory for the Purpose of preconising the French Bishops nominated by the Emperor Napoleon, and of providing other vacant dioceses in various Catholic countries. The Holy Father has never been in such good health as at the present time. --- A YANKEE JOKE.--Thousands of dollars are squandered every day upon the most useless articles of fancy, and the jokes cracked are innumerable.

The solemn, quiet days of Oxford's academic year, the regular routine of chapel and of college, end with this N eek in all the joviality which marks " CommetOration." In t'is great University re joking dreary rt. " Of "'gated" days, r4iP ed honours, and plucked fame are ail Mike fol - gOtten. It is Commemoration week—when unpopular proc tors have to screw up their courage to meet the un dergraduates in the Theatre; when gay crowds and pleasant parties throng the fine old College Quads ; when the dim religious-looking windows are filled with:blooming faces, and the sanctuaries of the grass plots are trodden unheeded. Oxford at all times is a cheerful place, and in Commemoration time is merrier than ever ; but the Commemoration of this year will be one, the like of which the University has never seen since when, just 49 years ago, the Sheldonian Theatre was honoured with the presence of the Allied Sovereigns, when George IV. was Re gent. But, even the rejoicings of that great occasion are likely to be surpassed on this, for now the under- graduates have to welcome their late fellow-gowns. man and his fair young bride, and the University an• thorities have to do honour to one who hereafter it is to be believed will do such honour to them, and, over and above all, to suit the convenience of their Royal visitors, the fetes and rejoicings of Commemoration this year have all to be said or sung,' danced or eaten, in two long summer days, instead of sir. The pro- zramme offered for the acceptance, and, if possible, For the enjoyment also of the youthful pair is of the same diversified kind as marked every day of the Prince's long route through Canada into the far west beyond the Mississippi. _ It is such a programme as only a very young and very happy pair could venture to undertake, and we much doubt if a young Princess was ever called upon, as an enjoyment, to go through so much before, Leav- ing aside the railway journey down to this city to morrow, there are also prtvate Leceptiuugs and public routes to be gone through—a public welcome, with addresses, at Magdalen-bridge, a procession through Oxford, a grand distribution of prizes to volunteers, a special congregation in the Stzeldenian Theatre, a Fancy Fair and Bazaar which their Royal High. - - _ nessea are to open, a Horticultural and Flower Show to which they are to accord a similar honour, a mag nificent banquet to which 400 guests will sit down in the hall of Christchurch in the evening, and a ball in the beautiful new Corn Exchange, where the visitors are somewhat rashly expected not only to find room for themselves, but room for the dancing also. This is a fair amount of festivity for one day, and that which follows it is just as good or as bad —certainly beginning earlier and probably ending later, and including another grand banquet and ball, a rowing match, the procession of boats, a Free masons' fete, a great collation at All Souls, and, above and beyond all, the Enccenia or Commethora tion—where the undergraduates can express their opinion, and when they will avail themselves of their privilege to the utmost, as Dr. Pusey and others already know. With such great things on hand, it is almost needless to say in what a fever of prepara tion Oxford is just now. Great Deans, Wardens, and Principals are immersed in arrangements for banquets and dances, and have to bend their minds to the minute contemplation of such frivolities as never entered the heads of Dons before. In every College committees of some sort or kind are sitting, gigantic piles of plates and table furniture, more or less attractive, may be found in odd nooks and out of-the-way corners, and in every " Quad" the residence of some fortunate dispenser of patronage, in the way of tickets, may be known at once by the hurried arrivals and slow disappointed de partures of the applicants, who come to prove, but always in vain, that there is room at banquet and at hall for them. The claim for tickets of every kind has been enormous, and the courtesy and kindly wish of the university authorities to favour the applications of those who had even the re motest pretensions to be present on any occasion have been tasked to the utmost. No reduction in the number of these applications is likely to be found as time draws on. Every train brings in fresh crowds of visitors, and every minute the car riages of the country gentry come rolling in. Ac . Gommudatinn in the literal sense of the term is scarcely to be had for money, and certainly not for love, and the local journals, who appear to have for the thousandth time consulted the " oldest inhabi tant" declare on his unimpeachable authority that Oxford never was so full. It is quite easy to believe this when we find that the notices of beds to let have all disappeared from the heart of the city, and been driven to the remotest purlieus, such as would only be discovered in the wanderings of some innless travellers. On the Sunday before Commemoration Day all, without exception, high or low, gentle or simple, come to promenade in the evening under the grand old avenue of elms in Christchurch meadow. On this occasion, too, all the belles in Oxford do their best to appear in toilettes worthy the occasion, and hence its name of " Show Sunday." Last Sunday it was a mere contradiction in terms to call it a walk, or a pro menade, or a show, or anything but a dense crowd which feebly tried to circulate along the avenue or kept standing still till dusk, when the bell rang and the solemn booming from " Tom Tower" rang out the last exhibitors from the " Show," to be early afoot again this morning, beseeching, intriguing, striving in every way known to female inge nuity for tickets for one of the many ce lebrations to-morrow. Fortunately for the Princess, and fortunately, perhaps, for the im pressions which she will take away from this famous seat of learning, Thursday is to be a quiet day—a day devoted to a long and strictly private visit to the famous monuments and buildings of the Univer sity. This, however, is to be the only quiet day, for on Tuesday and Wednesday there will be not a moment's rest for either of the Royal visitors. Amid the general bustle and excitement going on on all sides, even the quaint, gray old Colleges are patting on a gayer aspect. The turf of the quad rangles, always beautifully soft and green, has been mowed and rolled until it looks like the finest velvet. The Men's rooms have been swept and garnished for the visits of critical sisters andcousins, and Chapels and Halls have been trimmed up so as to look their oldest yet their best. The noble re fectory of Christ Church, in which the Prince and Princess are to be entertained at the grand banquet, has been tastefully re-decorated, and the portraits of many of the many eminent men who once sat as students within its walls, having been cleverly cleaned and restored, now present a brilliant and imposing array. The Dean's apartments at the other side of the quadrangle have been handsomely fitted up for the reception of the Royal party. Exeter and All Souls' are also preparing to do honour to the Prince. In the picturesque gardens of St. John's rows of dainty booths, gay with many coloured canvass, and decked with flags and arti ficial flowers, are being reared for the aristocratic saleswomen who are to hold a Fancy Fair there to morrow for the benefit of the new buildings of the Radcliffe Infirmary. The grounds of Trinity and Worcester are also being made ready for a Hor ticultural Show and Masonic Fete. The Corn- Exchange, a large new building, in the interior of which coloured brickwork is introduced with novel and striking effect, is, under the busy hands of painters and upholsterers, assuming a festive appearance worthy of the two balls which are to take place there on successive evenings, and which, it is certain, from the number of tickets issued, will, as we have intimated, be densely crowded. In front of the Town-hall the inscription "Let the earth rejoice and the nations be glad" will blaze at m night in letters of fire. Along the High-street. oe r ree Magdalen-bridge to St. Aldates, wooden galle i have been raised at many convenie nt and 80m in convenient positions for the accommod atio n o f spec tators to view the entrance of the Prince and o Prin cess.

The first of the great aquatic contests fixed for decision this week came off to-day, viz., that between Robert Chambers, the present Champion of the Thames and Tyne, and Richard A. W. Green, Champion of Australia. The distance to be rowed was from Putney to the Ship at Mortlake, and the match was remarkable as being the first in which a sculler from one of the most distant of her Majesty's possessions abroad has had the courage to make a voyage to England and contend for the coveted honour of Champion sculler of the river Thames. The extraordinary excellence of Chambers as a sculler did not deter Green from at once making a match, as it will be remembered he came to this country for the express purpose of rowing the best man in England, and, consequently, in the world. Green arrived in England before the race between Chambers and Everson was decided, and although anxious not to lose time in effecting his object, he accepted the advice of his friends and remained quiet until that match was decided, and then he challenged the winning man. Green brought a great reputation with him from the antipodes, and from the specimens of his power as a sculler, which a favoured few have had the for tune to witness, he was looked upon as a very awkward opponent for the redoubted Chambers. The start took place at six minutes past two. Green having won the toss for choice of station took the Middlesex side of the river. A fair start having been effected, Green immediately showed a little in advance. On arriving at the Duke's Head, he was nearly clear of Chambers, and in about 20 more strokes he was a boat's length ahead. Be fore arriving at Craven Cottage he had increased his lead to two lengths., In crossing, and nearly opposite the Crab Tree, a raft of timber which was being towed up the river looked like proving fatal to Green's chance, as those on board the steamers thought he would row right into it. At this point Chambers, who appeared to be rowing within himself, put on one of his well-known spurts, and passed Green as though he was standing still. Having obtained the lead he passed under Ham mersmith-bridge several lengths ahead. Off Chiswick Eyot, many of the steamers having followed Chambers, who had obtained a great lead, actually extinguished any chance that Green might have had. Chambers won by at least a quarter of a mile, Green having given over row- ing from this point. Betting at starting-3 to lon Chambers. At one part of the race, where Green led by nearly two boats' length, the betting was only 2 to 1 on Chambers, and in some cases as little as 6 to 4 was laid. vnL rnWIU liW W —This Evening.

FISHERIES (IRELAND) BILL. The house then went into committee on the bill. The consideration of clause 4 was resumed. Mr. BRUCE explained that the Government had lis tened with great attention to sugg3stions from all parties interested in these fisheries, and he believed that whilst the best parts of the Act of 1842 were conserved by this bill, it would likewise lead to tho proper distribution of salmon, which all unbiassed and disinterested persons desired. The Government considered that the clause as amended would work well. Sir N. SOMERVILLE said he was a supporter, though reluctantly, of the compromise which had resulted in this bill, and it was rather too bad for its supporters to feel it their duty to oppose such alterations in the clause on the part of the Government, which would legalise stake and bag nets, and thus destroy all salmon that ascended the rivers. Had the bill of the hon. member for Wexford (Mr. M'Mabon) not been interfered with by the Government, he believed it would have received the assent of the house• Mr. BRUCE denied that the clause as amended would legalise these nets.

C on vent, who has been confined to bed for a long time, w as i death-like appearance creat e d a strong a br v o as ug t ht almost multitudedown to avcoct sen sation. On his arrival at the sessions -h ouse t h e was ted, high sheriff and staff took the books outside, ab the chair could not be go t into the building. After recording his vote for Mr. M'Kenna, the rev, gentleman was carried back to the con vent. The excitement was now M‘lienna' ' • at its full height. Mr. s principal supporters proceeded to thehouse of the Rev. D. Kenny, P.P, , the entrance to which is in the chapel yard. The Rev. Mr. Neville and the Rev. Mr. Sinnott, two of the curates, were inside along with the parish priest. The visit of Mt .M‘lier.na's clergy su pporters to come was made for thepurpose of asking the parochial and vote, and thereby turn the maj or it y in favour of Mr. M' K enna. A large excited crowd assembled in the chapel-yard. The door was knocked at repeatedly and loudly, but none of the rev. gentlemen came to the door. A scene such as never was equaliled in New Ross then ensued. The women went to the front windows and poured abuse, execrations, and male dictions on the clergy. It was agrecd to stop dues and all manner of incomes from them. Though the knocker of the door had been used by the gentlemen in a manner sufficient to disturb the nerves of the most somnolent, but without effect, so far es inducing the clergymen to come out, yet there were others who thought good would come from knocking, and to it they tell, kicking, leaping at it, and pushing it until the door was smashed to pieces, and then in rushed the godly and patriotic. Some collared the Rev. Mr. Neville up against the wall, and others thought to force their way up the stairs, where the Rev. D. Kenny was obliged to stand on his defence as best he could, and to try to stem the current of what one who ought to be a judge characterised as fiends. The police arrived, chapel rev. gentlemen were extricated. After this the doors we re closed, not to allow the continuance of such conduct w i t hin sight of the altar. All this conduct was brought about because the Rev. D. Kenny would not break a pro mise that he had made, that he would not vote for or take any part with either of the candidates at the present election. The Rev. W. Neville remained for some time walking i front of the chapel, where he had to endure hearing the ob servations of many not the most reputable in town IV ex ci Constitution. 8.4.0 19.16.4 1 Share.
