The business doing in public securities is very ilalited, and in the absence of important outside in fluences, no improvement is expected in this direction until after next week. In the meantime, how ever, the funds are showing snore animation than for some time past. The cause of this return of activity is the present position of the money and bullion markets. Nearly a million and a half sterling in Australian gold is on its way from Melbourne, and the influx from New York has rev ived. At the same time there is more money seeking employment at home, while the revival in trade is insufficient to keep up recent rates. Money shows increasing ease. Though the large cdsb ursements to take place in connection with the Payment of the Government and - Milk dividends will not commence till to-morrow, its effect is already partially realized. Holders of bills hold back for a day or two, and the decline of business has reduced the rate to about I'l to 1 per cent. Cotton in Liverpool has declined to g this morning. The English Funds are very firm.

Sir Stafford Northcote, the Secretary of State for I ndia, has arranged with the Bank of England for the Payment of the interest on the Indian Funds without eiw sing the transfer books, the new system to coin inence with the dividends due in May. The Committee of the Stock Exchange have ap- Pointed Thursday 9th inst., a special settling day in the Four p er C ent. Preference (Convertible) Stock of the Caledonian Railway Company, to be marked. I t is stated, with regard to o of Belgium, that the applications for the obliga tthe ions exceed one million in number, and that, after number had been reduced one half, it was only 1 , ),.Y the controllers (Messrs. Rothschild) giving up their own reserve that the larger subscribers were enabled to obtain one-seventeenth part of their re quirements.

The traffic return of Ine Great 'Western Railway of Canada for the week ending the 3d inst. shows an increase of £846 over the corresponding period of last year. At a recent meeting of some of the principal Shareholders in Overeud, Gurney, and Co. (Limited), tha committee of four gentlemen. were appointed for e . purpose of taki ng procee di ngs at common l aw a gaust some o f t h e directors to recover, if possible, portion of the losses incurred. The committee h ave issued a circular inviting subscriptions from the shareholders at the rate of 3s. per share, to meet the exr.enses connected with the action. It appears from the circular that the committee intend, la the first place, to select one of their subscribers as plaintiff, and that the action will be taken against such of the directors as are known to be wealthy. In the event of any compromise arising from the pro posed' litigation the directors will certainly insist on the committee handing over to them the whole of the evidence obtained during the protracted and costly investigation ; otherwise the directors would lay themselves open to further action from shareholders who have not subscribed to the fund. The committee are, it is stated, supported in a highly satisfactory Manner. Yesterday the Birmingham houses advanced the price of English tin £2 p er ton, making present prices for refined block £lOl per t on , and common block £9B per ton.

This afternoon the prisoner Peter Monohan, alias Maugham, was placed at the baron remand, charged with inciting soldiers to desert her Majesty's ser vice, and inducing them to join the Fenian brother hood. The prisoner has been frequently examined and the charge against him substantially proved, but he was remanded after the last examination in order that one of the soldiers who left his quarters, and who was at that time suffering from illness, might be able to attend. Mr. Poland prosecuted on the part of the Trea sury. The witness Michael Farrell, of the Royal Artil lery, was this morning examined. He stated that he with some others lef t Woolwich, and went to Vine court,Whitechapel, where he was supplied with plain clothes, which he put on, leaving his regimentals on the floor. The number of his brigade was stamped on his regimentals ; it was 772. After the men had changed their clothes they went next morning to the railway; there the prisoner changed somebank notes in payment for their tickets for their going to Dublin. That was two days after they left Wool wich. On the first day after they left Woolwich they were about to depart for Ireland, when two of their party were missing on the road, and thinking something was wrong he (witness) and some of the others went back to Vine-court to get their uniforms in order to return to Woolwich ; but whisky was placed upon the table, when the men began drinking, and all got so intoxi cated that the object of their return was entirely lost sight of, and they remained in a state of pros tration from drink until the morning he had men tioned when they were all taken in cabs to the rail way station, en route to Dublin. The prisoner was the man who paid the fares to Ireland. Gough, Malony, of the Military Train, Farrell and Sullivan, of the Royal Horse Artillery, accompanied him (witness) to Dublin. When we got to Dublin we met the men whom we had lost in London the morning he had already referred to. When they got to Dublin we saw two of the men we had seen at Woolwich, and they paid their fares across the Liffy to Cumberland House. After that eight soldiers, of whom he was one, lodged at Mrs. Flynn's iu High-street, Dublin. About a month after the soldiers had got to Dublin he (witness) met the pri soner there, and he (witness) asked him how things looked. He said, " Pretty fair; there's an expedition about leaving America." He (witness) said to pri soner, " You've made a pretty mess in letting my boots be found," to which he replied that he didn't think they were in the place until the police dis covered them." He remained in Dublin some time, then corning to his sober senses he found he had done wrong. He went round to the other soldiers, got 6d. from each of them, by which means he was enabled to pay his passage to Liverpool, from whence he walked to London, and from there to Woolwich, where he gave himself up as a deserter. He was sent to prison, on coming out of which he was called p ev idence against C ono lly an d o th er soldiers uonan f d g ord a e v s e ertion. He did not personally know Corydon, but he had seen him in different places wh il s t he (witness) was absent from Woolwich. Corydon, the informer, having given evidence to identify the prisoner as one of the deserters he had seen in Dublin, m r . Poland said that would conclud3 the evi dence on the part of the prosecution. fir T. Henry [then fully comm i tted the pr i soner for trial on two charges of treason-felony, and in citing soldiers to desert her Majesty's service. iIIARIs:ETS—(This Day.) HAY AND STRAW. Supplies of haystuffs at Smithfield and Whitechapel wore only moderate to-day, but fully equal to the demand, which is dull. Ordinary qualities cheaper. Meadow hay, 60s to 84s; clover, first cut, 80s to 100 s; ditto, second cut, 50s to 84s ; straw, 28s to 34s per load. COLONIAL. SUGAR.—Prices are firm, in consequence of the small supplies offering, and a fair demand prevails. Floating 2.58 61 is paid for No. 114 and 11 to the United King dom, and 2Gs for 124- to 13. Manilla sells freely at 293 Od to 31s for clAyed. Refined sugars 'aro very firm, supply being small. Dutch crushed is held for stiffer prices. Deliveries are good, and keep in excess of last year's at this time. Stock of raw, 50,070 tons, against 66,330 tons last year. _ _ Molasses—The demand is increasing, and rates are firm West India, 15s Gd to 16s. Coffee—Clearances large, but stocks well kept up by recent imports of Ceylon. The market opens steady. TEL —Sm al 1 public sales have opened with fair spirit o private contract rates. Rica is firm, with a fair inquiry. A small parcel, 700 bags white Bengal, at auction, bought in at 12s Gd per cwt. Saltpetre maintains a firm position, but the amount o. business passing is moderate. Ihmr.—The market is firmer, but still inactive. Oils remain without quotable change. Lin see d , 34s English brown rapo, 355. COTTON. LIVERPOOL, April 7. —Market quiet, and drooping to lower. Sales probably 8,000 bales. THE WEATHER 1N YORKSHIRE.—The weather is so fine that farmers say the season is one month in ad vance of date. Cornfields and pastures are allowing vigorous growth, wheats having in some places outpaced the roller, and are now quite covering the ground. Clovers are ready for sheep, which, however, are still on turnips, which are so plentiful and for ward that some fields are in full flower. In some cases farmers have had their turnips to crush and plough in as manure. The plentiful supply of fodder yet remaining and the great pro mise of the spring herbage together tend to keep up the pt ices of lean stock, which is and must fel some time re main in good demand. Everything in farm and garden promises well. WORKING WOMEN'S CLASSES, KENSINGTON.— Reginald Stuart Poole, Esq., delivered a lecture on Thursday last to the working women's classes, at the Class rooms, Newton House, Church-street, Kensington. The subject was "Egypt." The lecturer's remarks bore parti cular interest on account of his extended personal experi ence in the country concerning which ho discoursed.

Mr. Brierly, the barrister who was committed last night to Newgate for contempt of Court, was brought up this morning, and on giving an assur ance that he would not interfere with the delibera tions of the grand jury he was discharged. FORGING BAPTISMAL CERTIFICATES. George Phillips was indicted for feloniously forg ing certain baptismal registers purporting to come from the parish of Stanmore, and to be the signa ture of James Atkinson, perpetual curate. The prisoner denied that be was the person who committed the forgery, but the jury found him guilty, and he was sentenced to 18 months' impri sonment with hard labour. William RaWlings Lindley was indicted for a similar offence, the object in his case being to make himself of an age to enable him to enter into com petition for a Civil Service appointment. The forged certificate made him appear as 19, when his real age was 25. The prisoner pleaded guilty, and the Recorder sentenced him to two mouths' imprisonment, his case differing entirely from the foregoing. FORGERY. John Eaglehurst, a fashionably-dressed German, pleaded guilty to an indictment charging him with forging and uttering a document with intent to defraud. The Recorder sentenced him to 18 months' im prisonment. Charles Smith was indicted for forging a cheque for £5O, with intent to defraud Sir J. Kirkland and Co. The prisoner sent a lad to the bank of Sir J. Kirkland with a cheque for £5O, purporting to be signed by C. S. C. Bligh. The cheque was at once found to be a forgery, and the prisoner was appre hended and charged with the felony. The prisoner, in his defence, said he admitted writing the cheque, but that he thought it would be returned with the words " no effects" written across it. lle wished to get quit of some company he had taken up with, and amongst whom he had spent over £4O. He thought if he put a 3orrect name to the cheque, and attached some letters, such as V. C. to it, he was not trangressing the law. The jury returned a verdict of guilty. In reply to the Recorder, the officer who appre hended the prisoner said the prisoner had refused to give any account of himself, but from inquiry at the War-office he had every reason to believe that the prisoner's real name was Charles Smith Death, and that he was formerly an officer in the Turkish Contingent. _ The Recorder said it appeared that the endeavour of the prisoner had been to keep without the cri minal law. lle had, however, been guilty of for gery, and he therefore sentenced him to 12 months' imprisonment with hard labour. POLICE .INTELLIGENCE.-TillS DAY. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. UNPROVOKED ASSAULT.—James Williams, a ven dor of chickweed and groundsel, was charged be fore Mr. Tyrwhitt with assaulting a little boy named Randell, living in Marlborough-row, Car naby-street. . _ The complainant said that on the previous even ing he was walking along Tyler's-court, having some tea and sugar in his hand, whets the prisoner struck him a severe blow on the back of his leg with a thick stick. In answer to Mr. Tyrwhitt, the boy said that he bad not said a word to the prisoner, nor taken any notice of him, and that after the prisoner struck him w he asked him what he was crying for. Mary Ann of 6, Queen-street, Soho, gavesimirev H id o enc Howard, to the boys. The prisoner said the boys were saucy to him and annoyed him. Lazarus Howes, 95 C, who took the prisoner into custody, [said there were only a few little children about, and none likely to have annoyed the pri soner, who was not sober. Mr. Tyrwhitt said that he had often observed, at different places where he had sat, that persons who went about with chickweed were of the wildest character. the assault was an unprovoked one, and the prisoner must go to prison for 14 days with hard labour. WILFUL DAMAGE AT A TAVERN. —James M'Ker nen, a groom, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with being drunk and wilfully breaking a pane of glass, of the value of £3, the property of Mrs. Ann White, of the Rose and Crown Tavern, No. 287, Oxford-street. The prisoner went into Mrs. White's house in a state of intoxication, was refused to be served by the barmaid, and on the barman putting him out of the house he broke a pane of glass of the value - of £3. Mr. Tyrwhitt ordered the prisoner to pay the amount of damage and a fine of 2s. 6d. WESTMINSTER. WHAT IS BETTING IN A PUBLIC THOROUGH FARE ?-A betting man was charged under the 22d Section, cap. 134, of the 30th and 31st Victoria, which enacts—" Any three or more persons assembled together in any part of a street within the metropolis for the purpose of betting shall be deemed to be obstructing the street, and each of such persons shall be liable to a penalty not exceed ing £5." Sergeant George Stevens, 57 A R, said that at five minutes past four he was on duty at Knights bridge-green, and saw a large number of persons whom he knew to be betting men assembled on the foot way. The prisoner was there with a book in his hand ; he was about to enter something in the book when witness took him into custody and another man who was liberated. When taken the defendant said he was not betting, he was " settling." Mr. Arnold asked if that was all the evidence ? The sergeant replied it was ; the defendant had been previousiy cautioned about betting in the street. Mr. Arnold said the evidence did not satisfy the Act of Parliament ; it must be shown that he was there for the purpose of betting ; but standing with a book in his hand is not to be taken that he was betting, although it might be considered presump tive evidence of the fact. The only way would be to actually .stand by .and hear a bet directly made, but that would be exceedingly difficult. He best thing for the thought the Act of Parliament a difficult one to y r he the parties to move op c carry i r caen o dt ut to oif on oo a n n w d tohu h el e idr b t he failingoh r t tdoe t comply with the order to take them into custody for resisting the constable in the execution of his duty. There was no case against the defendant, who must be discharged. THAMES. AN INCORRIGIBLE DRUNKARD.—CIara Hardy, the wife of a respectable mechanic, was brought with being drunk and herself, and also with incapable r. o ß f etnaskoinn,gcchaarrege.odf using filthy language. iTs a most dissipated woman, and has ije ruined a prisoner husband. She put on a most pitiable countenance, craved forgiveness, and said that she had never been m a station-house until good last night, or in a police -court until this morning. This outrageous lie was immediately contradicted by Police Serg ean t Maddigan, No. 42 K, who said the prisoner had been ten times in custody at the Arbour-street Police-station since the 3d of June last. She had been discharged five times and fined five times. Sergeant Maddigan then read the dates of her conviction, and said she had been in custody at other stations. Mr. Benson—How often ? Sergeant Maddigan—l cannot tell, sir. I can only speak of my station. The prisoner begged very hard to be forgiven, and said she would never get drunk again. Mr. Benson said the sergeant had spoken of the prisoner being in custody 10 times, and no depend ance could be placed on her word. It would be an injustice to the public and to the husband of the prisoner if he did not punish her. Ile sentenced her to seven days' imprisonment and hard labour. Ammo 11Iurpby, an Irish tailor, better known as Drunken Murphy, was charged with wounding his wife and child. Last night the prisoner came home drunk, made a great disturbance, and after abusing his wife, and swearing he would murder her, beat her with a poker, inflicting many severe contusions and wounds. She was removed to the London Hospital in a very precarious condition. The prisoner also beat his daughter, a girl about seven years of age, and gave her two black eyes. Mr. Benson, on hearing that the prisoner's wife could not leave the hospital, remanded him for a week. THE OXFORD AND CAMBRIDGE RACKET 31A TeIL The following appeared in our Latet Edition of yesterday evening:— The annual double racket match, which invari ably forms a very attractive feature in the pro gramme of the University contests, took place this afternoon at Prince's Club, Hans-place, Chelsea. There was a very large attendance of company, and altegether much interest attached to the contest, as Oxford, having been succe&ful in the bo it race, and the double billiard match on Sa turday, it was confidently expected they would add the racket match to their list of victories for the year 1868. Mr. Warner and Mr. Stowe were selected champions for Cambridge, and to Mr. Clay and Mr. Kennaway the fortunes of Oxford were confided. On the four competitors entering the " court," attired in their light and easy fitting costume, they were easily distinguish able, as the " two blues" formed as it were the facings of the respective dresses. The number of games to be played was fixed at seven, but the winners of the first four were to be considered the victors. Oxford went in first, but the game fell to Cam bridge, the respective numbers being—Cambridge, 15 ; Oxford, 8. The second game ended with a similar result, the numbers standing at the close—Oxford, 10; Cambridge, 15. The third game Oxford only scored two to Cambridge's 15. The fourth game Oxford secured, beating their opponents by 4, the score at the close standing_ Oxford, 15 ; Cambridge, 11. The fifth game was gained by Cambridge—the numbers being Oxford 7 ; Cambridge, 15 ; thus giving the victory to the light blue. The play of the Oxonians it will be seen from their scoring was by no means first-rate ; i n fact, they appeared to have but little chance of winning from the commencement of the match, but notwithstanding the dark blue party found themselves opposed to two superior players, they carried on the contest with the greatest vigour until the five games were played. Betting was from the first game entirely in favour of Cambridge. CRIMINAL COURT.-(April 6 ) _ _ip. THE FENIAN TRIALS. (Before the Recorder.) Mr. J. H. Lewis made an application to the Court on behalf of the prisoner Casey, who is in cluded with Burke and Shaw on the charge of trea son-felony, removed to this Court from the War wickshire Assizes, to fix a day for the trial, and also that it might not take place until after the trial for murder arising out of the Clerkenwell ex plosion. Mr. Montague Williams also made an applica tion on behalf of Anne Justice, who is included in the charge of murder above referred, that the trial might not take place until a late day of the session. He said that the prisoner had no friends or means of defence, and he had only just been in structed, and he wished for an opportunity to con sider the facts of the case and prepare for the de fence of the prisoner. _ _ The Recorder said that all he could state was, that it had been definitely arranged that neither of the cases referred to would come on this week. They would in all probability come on the Tuesday of next week, and according to the ordinary course the trial for murder would be taken first. He had, however, no control over that matter, and it would rest entirely with the Attorney-General which of the cases should be taken first. THE CASE OF LORD WILLOUGHBY AND MADAME D'AL7EDZAC. In this celebrated case Mr. Vernon Harcourt, the arbitrator, has made the following award : " 1. Lord Willoughby d'Eresby shall pay to the Comtesse d'Alteyrac an annuity of £1,200 for the term e _of her life, the annuity to date from the Ist of April, 1868, and to be payable by half-yearly payments ; and I hereby order Lord Willoughby d'Eresby to pay the said annuity accordingly ; and I further award that that annuity shall be legally secured by Lord Willoughby d'Eresby to the Comtesse d'Alteyrac for her life. I further award that, in order to secure the said annuity to the Comtess d'Alteyrac, Lord Willoughby d'Eresby shall, within two months from the date of this award, purchase from the Commissioners for the Reduction of the National Debt a life annuity to the amount of £1,200 per annum for the life of the said Comtesse d'Alteyrac, and shall convey the same to trustees on her behalf named in a deed annexed to the award, and signed by me. And I hereby order Lord Willoughby d'Eresby within two mouths of the date of this award to purchase the said annuity, and to transfer the same to the said trustees ; and I order Lord Willoughby d'Eresby and the Comtesse d'Alteyrac within two months of the date of this award to execute the said deed. And I further award that if for any reason the said annuity shall not have been legally secured by Lord Willoughby d'Eresby before the last day of May in the year of our Lord 1868, then, in addition to the annuity made payable as afore said, a further sum of £lOO shall become due and payable by Lord Willoughby d'Eresby to the Com tesse d'Alteyrac upon the said last day of May, 1868, and a further sum of £lOO on the last day of each successive month, until such annuity shall be legally secured, and I hereby order that Lord Wil loughby d'Eresby.shall pay such additional sums at the dates aforesaid. These monthly payments are to be considered as additional to the payments due in respect of the annuity, and as a penalty for delay in the legal settlement of the same, but are not to prejudice the right of the Comtesse d'Alteyrac to enforce the securing of the annuity by other means. As soon as the annuity shall be legally settled by Lord Willoughby d'Eresby the said additional monthly payments of £lOO to cease. " 2. And I further award that Lord Willoughby d'Eresby shall pay to the Comtesse d'Alteyrac a sum of £5,000, and I order Lord Willoughby d'Eresby to pay the said sum of £5,000 forthwith to the same trustees as those named in the deed an nexed to this award, for and on behalf of the Cum tesse d'Alteyrac."

AZELLA.—The great attraction at the Royal Amphitheatre and Circus, Holborn, for the last few weeks has been the performance of Mdlle. Azella on the trapeze, and those who have wit nessed it generally agree it is graceful, but for a woman excessively daring. No accident or hitch of any kind occurred with respect to lidlle. Azella's feats since her ap pearance in London until Monday evening, when, unfor tunately, one of those distressing events took place which sooner or later appear to mark the gymnast's hazardous career, and which mar the pleasure of an evening's amuse ment. Madlle. Azella, went through her preliminary flights on the trapeze with her accustomed grace, and successfully accomplished what is termed in the bills "a flight across the arena of 100 ft., terminating in a somersault at an elva tion of 30ft. from the platform." Loud applause greeted the performer, who then swung herself from the rest at the back of the stage on which she stands, by a trapeze, with the intention of catching another, which, being set in motion, would meet her at the extreme distance to which the first trapeze would extend. In her flight Madlle. Azella twisted herself round the cross-stick of the trapeze, using her legs as actively as her arms, and came into position to spring to the second trapeze ; but either the latter did not come its proper distance, or Mdlle. Azella swung herself short of it—it is difficult to say which, as, when she lot go the one cross-stick and sprang at the other she failed to catch the latter, and fell a distance of about 8 eight feet upon the platform, coming down flat on her f tce. Fortunately her arms were extended and saved her face from serious injury. Tho platform is covered with a sort of thin mattress, but as it appears to be without any spring tho fall must have been very severe. The most painful sensation was created by the accident in every part of the house, and there wore suppressed screams from the female portion of the audience. Mdlle. Azella was on her feet in a moment, but as quickly fainted and was carried off the platform. One of the managers appeared in about ten minutes, and said a surgeon had examined Mdlle. Azella and found that the muscles of her arm had been injured. The fair trapezist came on the platform after a short in ter ; val, looking weak and deadly pa le, and it was evident her face had suffered. Sho was loudly cheered.

A lot of pit lads had just left the fire hole, and had not got to the bottom of the shaft when the boiler exploded. Had they been at bank they would most likely all have been killed. The boiler was one of four at bank used for driving the engine which does the usual work there. The explosion did a good deal of mischief to the buildings about. HAILEYBURY COLLEGE SCHOLARSHIPS.-1.

The opera of Dante is divided into three parts, and in the first a sonnet was sung so charmingly by the fair Swedish cantatrice that it was encored with great enthusiasm, and the same mark of favour was ac corded to a charming capriccio, forming part of the ballet music which is intercalated in the work. The perform once did not terminate until half-past twelve, two entr'actes having been arranged, during which visits were nterchanged and refreshments taken, the theatre being for the time transformed into an ariltocratio drawing , MM.
