YAJTET A ND qOMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE, CITY, Two U'CLOCK. Although the reserve and bullion are shown by the return of the Bank of England to have again undergone diminution, the position of the Bank in relation to its liabilities is satisfactory. The reserve is nearly three millions and a half, above one-third of the liabilities on deposits ; and the bullion is £4,804,000, above one-third of the total liabilities on deposits and circu lation. Still, as the bullion and reserve have been falling for several weeks, and the French Exchange is rather adverse, the contingency may be at hand of an advance in the rate of discount to 2' per cent. The Bank of France has rover descended below that minimum, and it is probable that the difference of per cent. may have been one of the causes of the enormous accumu lations of gold in its coffers—the stock being now very nearly fifty millions sterling. There is a decline in the public deposits, owing, perhaps, to the new B . ystem of paying certain public salaries monthly, and In consequence of demands for harvest purposes the private deposits have fallen off, while the circulation has increased in nearly the same proportion. TI following are the principal changes since the last return : _ Increase in Circulation Decrease in Public Deposits Decrease in other Deposits ...... 786,615 Increase in Government Securities Increase in other Securities .. 222,083 Decrease in Bullion Increase in Rest Decrease in Reserve Bullion in both Departments ......21,371,989 Reserve in Notes and Coin Circulation, including-Bank Post Bills 25,514,672 The return of paid clearing for the week ending Wednesday, August 5, as testified by Mr. George Derbyshire, chief inspector, is as follows : July 30, Thursday ... .C 9,150,000 July 31, Friiay ... 22,182,000 _ . .

Halifax Before the recess had really commenced, all kinds of rumours were afloat as to future political movements. Sir Stafford Northcote was going to India, Sir William Stirling-Maxwell and no end of other Ministerialists were about to be made peers, Mr. Disraeli had recom mended himself as the next K.G., &c. Then came a story that Mr. Reed, the Chief Constructor of the Navy, having a wish to get into Parliament, had resigned his appointment, that he might contest the borough of Pembroke. Nearly all the papers re-echoed it " on authority," adding that their lordships of the Admi ralty had refused to accept Mr. Reed's resignation. One by one these stories have crumbled. The story about Mr. Reed, however, was so very circumstantial that one can hardly understand how any mistake could have been made. Yet now the Standard announces that Mr. Reed never resigned, as stated. As Oldbuck says, " How the world is given to lying!" At the half-yearly meeting of the Liverpool Chamber of Commerce, upon the occasion of the presentation of an address to Mr. Horsfall, who retires from the representa tion of the borough, the chairman expressed his regret that political exigencies had prevented the passing of the bill for the amendment of the bankruptcy law. He also hoped that the report of the Royal Commissionon Railways would soon be considered, and, among several o ther matters, alluded to the proposed reduction of local postage, for the conveyance of samples through the post. The feeling of the meeting seemed to be with him, and mercantile men are generally looking forward to the next Parliament for some wholesome reforms as soon as the great questions of confidence or no confidence and the fate of the Irish Church are settled. Apropos to the increase of railway fares which has recently taken place on certain railways, Mr. Ruskin gives his opinion on the whole subject. He says : " Neither the roads nor the railroads of any nation should belong to any private persons. All means of public transit should be provided at public expense, by public determination where such means are needed, and the public shouid be its own shareholder.' Neither road nor railroad nor canal should ever pay dividends to anybody. They should pay their working expenses, and no more. All dividends are simply a tax on the traveller and the goods, levied by the person to whom the road or canal belongs, for the right of passing over his property. And this right should at once be purchased by the nation, and the original cost of the roadway—be it of gravel, iron, or adamant—at once defrayed by the nation, and then the whole work of the carriage of persons or goods done for ascertained prices, by salaried officers, as the carriage of letters is done now." Mr. Ruskin adds that he believes that if the votes of the railway proprietors were taken they would en masse he glad to receive back their original capital, and give up all claim to revise the fares. A TRUE ANSWER.—A hardy Irish seaman, who had escaped from one of the recent shipwrecks upon our coast, was asked by a good lady how he felt when the waves broke over him. " Wet, ma'am—very wet," he replied.

Renny, who com manded in the temporary absence of Lieutenant- Gene ral the Hon. Sir James Yorke Scarlett, K.C.B. In anticipation of a day of fervid heat and glaring sunshine, the Division was under orders to form up in rear of Cocked-hat Wool as early as eight o'clock, but owing to a heavy and unexpected fall of rain it was eleven o'clock before the troops got into position, when they formed in line of con tiguous columns, facing east. Tne batteries of horse Artillery were on the right, an I next in order were the 4th, sth, and Ist Dragoon and 10th Hussars. Four field batteries of the 11th Brigade R.A., and 14 battalions of infantry formed the left of the'• line. A few minutes after the formation Major- General Renny, accompanied by .General Lord Napier and a brilliant Staff, arrived upon the ground, and was received with the general salute. He then inspected the ranks, after which Lord Napier received the salute of the troops at the salut ing base, and they marched past, the artillery and cavalry in open column of batteries and squadrons at a walk, and the infantry in open column of grand divisions :—Staff of the Division (among whom were Colonel Conolly, Assistant Quarter master-General ; Capt. Pelly, Deputy Assistant Quartermaster-General ; Col. Laffan, R.E. ; Capt. Noble, RE. ; Col. Smyth, C 8., commanding the Artillery Division, and others) ; Major-General 11. Renny, commanding.

The artillery and cavalry then trotted past as before, after which the division took up a position on the hills known as the Steeplechase Groun], to attack au enemy supposed to be_ in position on Eelmoor-hill, with his right resting on the canal and his left at Eel moor-hill South. The Ist Division was on the right, the cavalry is the rear. The Ist Brigale advanced in splendid order, covered by skirmishers of the Ist Battalion Grenadier Guards, until they gained the ridge of Long-hill, wheu they lay down and were relieved. The cavalry at the same time darted forward from both flanks, and made demonstrations to the front. The Ist Brigade of the 21 Division advanced to the left of Cocked-hat Wood, and the skirmishers of the two leading bri gades came into alignment. The main body fol lowed in parallel lines. Slowly, steadily, and grad ually they changed position half left, and the two leading brigades halting, fired by volleys and inde pendently. They were relieved by the brigades in reserve, which fired in the same manner. The field batteries, posted on the flanks and at interva's, played heavily on the supposed enemy ; the cavalry made several demonstrations, and the Horse Artil lery fired with their usual rapidity. The result of the combined movements an I cincentrati Er of fire was, of course, the total defeat of the enemy, and the troops returned to quarters about half-past two o'clock. According to existing arrangements Prince Arthur will terminate his stu lies at the Royal Engineer Establishment, Chatham, oa ,Monday next, on which day he will quit the garrison, on the comple tion of the curriculum of studies it wa3 arranged his Royal Highness should pass through on his join ing the Royal Engineers. It is understood that Prince Arthur is about to proceed on foreign travel for about 12 months previously to joining the Royal Artillery. A divisional order was yesterday issued to the troops at Chatham by Major-General Freeman Murray, in which he tenders his best thanks to the troops who took part iu the siege operations of Wednesday fur th e very cre di ta bl e manner i n which everything was conducted. Officers commanding corps and battalions are requested to convey to all ranks the Major-General's warm approval of the intelligence, readi:iess, and evident desire to carry out successfully the programme for the day which were manifested by t h ose serv i ng un d er hi s com mand. It is officially notified that the B Battery, C Bri gade, Royal Horse Artillery, is under orders to proceed to Nor w i c h . T he depot of the I st batta lion 6th Regiment, consisting of six officers and 187 men, is und er or d ers to procee d f rom Shef field to Colchester; the depot will be attached to the Bth depot battalion. Captain Lloyd, Captain Gandy, Lieut. Bowers, Lieut. C. D. Bowers, Lieut. Hollingworth, and Ensign Wollaston are the officers accompanying the depot. The double-screw iron armour-plated turret ship Cerberus, building by the Palmer Shipbuilding Company at Yarrow, one of the two vessels in tended to be stationed at Melbourne for the pro tection of the Australian colonies, is ordered to be sent to Chatham, at which port she is to be fitted for service. The other vessel intended to be sta- tioned at Melbourne is the Nelson, 72, 2,736 tons, 500 horse power. Her Majesty's ironclad frigate Hercules, 12, 1,200 horse power, Capt. Lord R. J. Gifford, got up steam in Chatham harbour yesterday, and in the after noon left her moorings, alongside the dockyard, for the purpose of taking a preliminary run outside the harbour, to the Nore, to test the working of her engines and machinery. The vessel was in charge of a party of officers, stokers, and seamen belonging to the steam reserve; Messrs. John Penn and S on , the makers of the engines, being r e p resen t e d on board by Mr. 11. Anderson. The preliminary trial of the ship's machinery was superintended by Mr. T. Baker, chief inspector of machinery at Chatham dockyard, and his assistants in that department. At the close of several hours' full steaming, during which evay portion of the ponderous machinery of the ship worked in all respects most satisfactory, the Hercules returned to moorings in the harbour. A Court-martial was held yesterday on board the _ . . Victory, flagship of Admiral Sir T. S. Pasley, Com- mander-in-Chief at Plymouth, under the presi dency of Capt. T. Cochrane, for the trial of Mr. Charles Nicolle, Assist.-Paymaster of her Majesty's ship Dec, on the following charge :—" For that he the said Mr. Charles Nicolle, being a person subject to the Naval Discipline Act of 1866, and Assist.- Paymaster in her 111.ajesty's ship Dee, did on or about the 20i,h of July, 1833, absent himself with- out leave from her Majesty's ship Dee." The Court, after hearing the evidence fur the prosecu tion and what the prisoner had to offer in his de fence, found the charge proved, and sentenced him to forfeit and lose all seniority as A sist.-Payrnaster iu her Majesty's s:rvic-2, aul to be severely repri manded. The non-commissioned oflicors and men of the Royal Engineers and Royal Marines iLijured by the _ _ _ accident at Chatham on Monday are progressing very favourably. Prince Arthur, accompanied by Major.. General J. L. A. Simmons, C.B. ; Leut.- Col. 11. C. Elphinstone, C. 13., V.C. ; and other officers, visited Fort Pitt lkspital on Tuesday after awn, and went through the wards occupied by the men of the Royal Engineers who were. injured. The Prince was conducted over the establishment and through the wards by Dr. Balfour Cockburn, R.E., the principal medical officer, to whom he expressed on leaving his complete satisfaction with the whole of the hospital arrangements. At the same time he desired Dr. Cockburn to supply the injured men with every comfort he considered advisable. Lieu'. L. F. Brown, R.E., who accompanied the Royal Marines across the flying-bridge, was one of the first to fall into the trench on the giving way of the bridge. This officer had a very narrow escape, his 'cap being pierce I and taken off his head by a bayonet, against which he fell, wl•ibbe his trousers were cut in two places by bayonets. Yesterday a board of field officers, con sisting of Col. J. W. Smith, C. 8., commanding tilt Ist Depot Battalion, president ; Col. R. K. Cl tvell, Second Commqndaut of the Royal Marines, and Lieu4enant-Colonel C. C. Chesney, Royal Engi neers, assembles at Chatham, by order of Major- General Freeman Murray, for the purpose of in quiring into the circumstances connected wish the fatal occurrence. The funeral of Private William Marchant, Royal Marines Light Infantry, who was accidentally killed during the rehearsal of the siege operations at Chatham, was conducted yesterday afternoon, with full military honours. The body of the de ceased was preceded to the grave by the baud of the divkiou playing the "Dead March" from " Siul" with muffled drums and the instruments draped in black.

The following documents relative to the review of volunteers at IVinibledon have been forwarded to us for publication : " Horse Guards, S.W., Aug. 3, 1868. " Sir,--I am directed by the Field-Marshal Com manding-in-Chief to transmit, for submission to the Secretary of State for War, the accompanying re p3rt, which has been received from Major-General Hamilton, relative to the force of volunteers re viewed by him at Wimbledon on the 25th ultimo, and to request that you w►ll state to Sir John Pakington that his _Royal Hig!mess has perused the same with satisfaction.--I have the honour to be, sir, your obedient servant, (Signed) "W. PAULET, Adjutant-General. " The Under-Secretary of State, War-Office, Pall Mall." " Gun House, July 27. _ " Sir, —I have the honour to make the fbllowing report for the information of his Royal Highness the Field Marshal Commanding-in-Chief of the re view of volunteers, that took Placa on the 25th inst. on Wimbledon Common, in present;; of his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales.' The number as sembled on that occasion w.ts less than had been anticipated—a fact which, being known only at the last moment, necessitated certain m.)difications on the spot in the instructions I had given to generals of division. " I have the honour to enclose a copy of those instructions. The troops began arriving ,on the ground about half-past five. They were formed at six o'clock, when the manceavres immediately com menced. The force was drawn up in line facing the N.E., to resist the approach of an enemy sup-. posed to be coming from Putney and Wandsworth. The left division, under Major-General Brownrigg,, in one line ; the right division, under Major-Gcne ral Carey, i a two lines. " The attack commenced by the advance of the 2d division in line, covered by skirmishers. The first line of the Ist division, as soon as formed, also advanced, and formed on the right of the 2,1 divi sion. After the advance of this Hoe, the enemy being found in strength on their right flank, I caused the 21 division to retire in direct echellon of battalions from the left at forty paces interval, and when in echellon t. form squares. Oa the repulse of the supposed enemy, the small force of cavalry was sent to the front through the intervals, to keep the enemy in check. The 21 division, after re forming columns, retired, part of it forming on the left of the tst division, which was now changing front. " The artillery had been sent to the extreme right fl tnk to strengthen that point, and assist in turning the enemy's left flank. With this view the first line of the lst division changed front on its left, right thrown forward, the second line of the same division conforming to this movement. " The first line, supported by four guns, ad vanced and opened fire, retired by fours through the second line, which opened fire and maintained its position. "The manoeuvres ended, the force was formed in mass of columns, at a quarter distance, oa the marching past alignment, and marched past his Royal Ilighness the Prince of Wales in quick time, i❑ open column of companies, his Royal Highness the Duke of Edinburgh honouring the Ist London Artillery Corps by marching past at their head. " The force was then formed in double line of contiguous columns facing the saluting point, and advanced in review order, a royal salute concluding the proceedings. " I have reason to be satisfied with the manner in which the several corps of volunteers were handled by their brigadiers, and with the general steadiness of the men under arms. ." I cannot close these observations without re marking upon the efficient manner in which the ground was kept by a detachment of the 17th Lancers, from llampton Court, aided by some police: Almost every volunteer was outside the enclosure before the public entered the reviewing ground, and the volunteers marched off to their re spective stations with perfect regularity,—l have the honour to be, sir, your most obedient servant, (Signed) " FREDK. w. HAMILTON, Major-G-eneral Commanding.' War Office, Pall Mall, Aug.--5 Sir, —I am directed by Secretary Sir John Pak ing ton to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 3d instant, enclosing a report from Major General Hamilton on the review of volunteers at Wimble don on the 25th ultimo. In reply I am to express Sir John Pakington's satisfaction at the opinion expressed by Major- General Hamilton in regard to the execution of the mancouvres, and especially at that officer's remarks in regard to the regularity observed by the volun teers on their march from the ground at the close of the review.—l have the honour to be, sir, your obedient servant, (Signed) LONGFORD. The Adjutant-General, Horse Guards. Mr. Disraeli, on the part of the Crown, has nominated the Rev. F. Law, M.A., of Corpus Chri,ti College, Cambrilgo, vicar •of Lullington, Derbyshire, to the rectory of Croft, ono of the best livings in the gift of the Crown. Mr. Law was married in 1832 (the elopeuent having excited much public interest at the time) to Lady Adelaide Eni iaa Vine-Temp.3st, daughter of the Mar quis of Londonderry. In 1859 he was presented by Lord Chelmsford, then Lord Chancellor, to the vicarage of Lullington, the presentation to which has since that time been sold, under Lord Westbury's Act, to Mr. C. IL [ADVERTISEMENT.

A few weeks ago he advised her to give the Oint:nent and Pills a trial, which she did, and alter tak ing a few boxes of pills and using the Ointment, they checked the disease and effected a complete cure.

SHOPLIFTING EXTRAORDINARY.—Henry Benson, who described himself as a traveller; Mary Benson, no occupation; John hay Watson, mariner; and Margaret Watson, no occupation ; —were charged wi.h stealing three umbrellas and two Malacca cams, value £4 ss. 6d., from the shop of Mr. Edw. Bax, Duncannon-street, Strand. Mr. Abrams defended all the prisoners. The male prisoners arc: both stout built, Watson being much taller than Bens3n, and rather good and smartly dressed. They all refused to give any address. Mr. Thomas H. Jersey, • assistant to Mr. Bax, stated that the prisoner Watson, came in and asked to look at a Malacca cane. Witness showed him one, and Watson asked if he could get it gold mounted. 'Presently Benson came in with the two women, and looked at some goods which were shown them by the shop-boy. Benson then crossed the shop to ask witness if, supposing he bought a stick and umbrella, any reduction would be n.a.de on the price of the two ; to which witness replied iu the negative. lie said he should like to have his initials engraved on them, " H. 8.," his name being Baughan. He said he was staying at Mor ley's Hotel. He said he should call the next day and " pay for all," which he would not do then as he had none but American money. lie also said something about being " just come from the States," which confirmed an impression he had already formed partly from their dress and manner, and partly from the quantity of diamondstuis, pins, and sleeve links, which they exhibited, that they were Americans. While talking with Benson, witness suddenly missed Watson, who had left the shop while he was look ing another way. Presently the other three pri soners left also, but were followed and watched by the shop-boy. The latter returned shortly and stated that he had watched them into the Strand, and had seen them enter the shop of Mr. Kimmel, the perfumer. Witness went to Morley's llotel and found that no person of th!. name of Baughan was staying there. He returned to the shop and directed the boy to go in search of the four pre tended customers. The boy had told him that he thought they had stolen a Malacca cane, and he had observed that there was one missing. Afterwards he missed another cane and three umbrellas. He identified the canes and umbrellas produced. They all bore a ticket with Mr. Bax's trade mark. The ticket is invariably removed when an article is sold. John Cummings, the shop boy, corroborated as to what occurred in the shop, and also as to his having followed the prisoners to Mr. Rinamel's, and returned to report that fact to Mr. B .x. When he went after them the second time he found them in the Strand, near St. Clement's Church. Exch of the male prisoners was carrying a cane and an umbrella, and the woman Watson an umbrella. He spoke to a policeman and sail he belisoted they had stolen the articles from his master's shy. The constable asked if he would take the responsi bility of giving them into custody. Witness rep'ied that he would. They were then perceived by the prisoners, who separated, the men proceeding along the Strand, and the women running away down Essex-street. The constable took the two men into custody, and witness requested Mr. Mallett, of Wych street, printers'-ink maker, who was passing at the time, to follow them, which he did. The women were•overtaken, and the four prisoners were taken to the station. Police-constable Rogers, 25 F, Reserve, stated that the last witness gave the two men into his custody for stealing the umbrellas and canes, which they still had in their hands. At the station-house they were searched. The witness was giving a list of watches, rings, pins, and sleeve-links found on them, when Mr. Abrams pointed out that these were the articles they were wearing as part of their apparel. The officer might as well give a list of their clothes. Mrs. West, the fewale searcher, produced the property found on the women concealed under their petticoats, which was of a somewhat miscellaneous nature. Amongst- other articles Benson had two imitation oil paintings, 20} inches by 12, and a box of cigars in a summer's bag or pocket, tied round her waist; and water and two oil paintings of the same size, and three boxes of cigars. The prisoners were remanded. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. AN AWKWARD MISTAKE.—Two well-dressed young women, named Amy Beaumont and Jessie Sqmour, were charged wit'l stealing the watch of Ramsey Hunter, servant, at No. 53, Picci,dilly. • Alfred Brooks, 111 0, said the prosecutor gave the young women into custody for stealing his watch, but had since found that he had made a mis take and left his watch at home. Mr. Kuox said the prosecutor had, indeed, made a mistake, and unless he made the young women ample reparation they had their remedy. The prosecutor said that he was very sorry, and certainly would make some reparation. The young woman were of course dischargad. THAMES. INGENIOUS SMUGGLING.—George Pratt, aged 21 years, was brought before Mr. Benson, charged with smuggling on board the General Steam Navi gation Company's ship Waterloo. The prisoner was a passenger on board the Waterloo from Rotterdam, and on her arrival here on her last trip an out-door officer of Customs, named William Roberts, asked him if he had any goods liable to duty, to which he replied in the ne gative. The attention of the officer was then called to a box containing four pairs of doves belonging to the defendant, and when removing what appeared to be the real bottom of the box, he found another board below it. Bitween the two boards there was three and a half pounds of foreign manufactured tobacco very ingeniously concealed. The prisoner said the tobacco was his, and that it was given to him. Mr. Benson asked if the prisoner had any con nexion with the vessel or the respectable company to which she belonged, and the reply was that the prisoner was only a passenger on board the Water loo, and was formerly the cook of a sailing vessel called the Wellington. Mr. Benson said the prisoner had displayed re markable ingenuity in secreting the tobacco in a box of birds, and convicted him in the full pJnalty of £3 35., which he paid. A TICKET-OF-LEAVE WOMAN.—Elizabeth Drum mond, a most audacious thief, who has been re peatedly in custody, was brought before Mr. Ben son charged with stealing two sovereigns from the person of John M'Gowan, a seaman, belonging to the ship Hudson. The prisoner has been long dwelling in Angel gardens, Shadwell, where none but fallen angels and their paramours reside. She was convicted on the 18th of October, 1354, and sentenced to five years penal servitude for a highway robbery with violence, and at that time a former conviction and twelve months' imprisonment was proved against her. She received a ticket-of-leave and license six months ago, and has been dwelling in her old haunts since. She met the prosecutor in a public house called the White Fox yesterday evening. She took two sovereigns and some greenbacks from the sailor's pockets, and he saw the gold in her hand. It is -believed she handed her booty to a confederate. The prisoner denied the robbery and sail she had been stopping with another sailor who gave her £lO on Monday. Mr. Benson remanded the primer till Welles- day next. WELLINGTON COLLEGE.—II. S.
