The Stock Markets are quiet at the reduced prices current at the close of yesterday. The realisa tions which were effected in the afternoon caused a relapse in Consols of per cent., and there has not since been any recovery. The sympathetic reaction which took place in other securities has, in some Cases, been partly regained. The completion of the settlement to-day is chiefly occupying attention, and in the absence of anything political to disturb the market. the tendency would appear to be upwards. The Discount Market is active this morning at 2 per cent. and upwards. There is a good inquiry for general trade purposes, but the bulk of the business is in connection with the settlement in the Stock Exchange, where advances on Consols are quoted to 2 per cent. The corn market is quiet but firm, with very short supplies.

The trade continues very firm and healthy in its gene ral aspect. The continental accounts from the shippin g ports are very firm in the quotation, and there were very few additions to the number of grain cargoes on passage, which is now worked down to a level with that of last yoar at this time. From the country markets the report speaks of con tinued firmness in the currency, with light supplies. Al Mark Lane this morning the attendance was small, and buyers operated with their wonted caution, but the sup plies of all kinds of both English and foreign grain were extremely light, and the tone in consequence firm. English wheat was purchasable only at the extreme rates of Monday last. Foreign wheat on stands quoted fully as dear although purchased sparingly. For cargoes off the coast, of which 36 are on sale, stiff rates are demanded. Flour purchased sparingly, but quite firm. Barley scarce, and tending against buyers. Beans and peas unaltered. Oats in steady demand. Malt firm. NEWGATE AND LEADENEIALL. MEAT—The trade throughout looks very healthy with an improving tendency. Demand is good, and the mar kets cleared off.

THE JONGHMANS"FESTIMONIAL.—We are pleased to hear that through the exertions of the honorary secre tary, Mr. Vandervell, the subscriptions to this testimonial have now reached to nearly £lOO. On reference to our advertising columns, it will bo seen to whom donations may be foi warded. The Publishers' Circular mentions an incident at the sale of the library of the late Mr. Windus, of Tottenham, as showing the increasing value of choice b oo k s . One of the gems of the collection was a copy, on large paper, of Dr. J. T. Dibdin's " Bibliographical, Anti quarian, and Picturesque• Tour i n F rance and Germany, " illustrated with etchings, India proof engravings, private plates, original drawings by Lewis, Pugin, and others, ex tending the three volumes to tix. The copy was formed by Mr. Eyton, and at the sale of his library 20 years ago it was purchased for £63 by Mr. Lilly, who disposed of it for £lOO. The same book was knocked down a few days since for £240 to Mr. Harvey, of St. James's-street the next bidder being again Mr. Lilly, its former pos-, sessor. This sale afforded many o th er exemplifications of the same fact. The Australian papers contain lengthy accounts of the funeral obsequies of the late Governor-General, Sir Dominick Daly. The funeral took place on Saturday, the 29th of February, and was of a most imposing character. The solemn dirge was sung by the Rev. G. A. Reynolds, in the Cathedral, Adelaide. The Rev. Father Smyth preached the sermon. At the conclusion of the sacred ofllce the body was borne to the cemetery, attended by the Bishop of Adelaide, a great nutnbir of the clergy, and and all the leading persons in Adelaide. On Sunday the death of this distinguished man was alluded to in terms of the deepest sorrow in every church and chapel in Adelaide. lie was universally respected, and the clergy of all deno minations united iu paying a last public tribute to his memory. There was once an Irish Protestant bishop of benevoleat disposition, says the Saturdag Review, who was much given to investigating the condition of the Catholic children on his estate ; and being of au inquisitive turn of mind, he was anxious to ascertain their views about what the Record would call his "eternal prospects." Su ho one dAy popped the question to a curly-headed little urchin, who was a special hymn - Re, as to where ho expected him, the bishop, to go to when he died ? To his considerable surprise tho young catechumen replied that he hoped his lordship would go to heaven. "But, you know," said the bishop, " I am a heretic, and all heretics go to the wrong place, don't they?" "Oh no, not you," was the artless rejoinder; your lordship is so inconceivably ignorant.' " Invincibly ignorant" the child had been taught to say, but both words being equally beyond his comprehension, ho naturally took the first that came to hand. The young girl MargaretlYalsh, the pupil teacher in a C..tholic school at Westanr3ster, who was charged with putting one of the pupils, a child four years old, into a copper of boiling water, was tried at the Middlesex Ses sions on Friday. The defence, as when thb ease was be fore the magistrate, was that the child was not intention ally put into the copper, but fell in by accident. She was acquitted, but the Assistant Judge warned her to be mono careful, in future.

COURT OF EXCHEQUER. THE CLERKENIVELL EXPLOSION. This was a special case by order of Mr. Willis, and involved the question whether the Hundred of Ossulston, which includes Clerkenwell and the house of Detention, are responsible for the in juries done to the property in Corporation• lane by the recent diabolical attempt to blow up the House of Detention, and for which Michael Barrett now lies under sentence of death. After a description had been read of the manner of the explosion, and the silent inlnner in which it was carried out, Mr. Mere Weather said that the plaintiff in this case was the owner of houses 3 and 4, Corporation-lane, which had been wholly or par tially destroyed. lle applied to a magistrate, but had been advised to apply to a judge, and Mr. Justice Wiles had been applied to and had the case stated. It appeared from the Act that any persons who in a riotous and tumultuous manner destroyed a house, chapel, or church, that the inhabitants of the hun dred in which it was situated should make good the mischief done, and this he apprehended was in order to punish them for not preventing such kinds of practices. Mr. Baron Martin—How could persons engaged in such an undertaking, which they carried out secretly and silently, be called a tumultuous, rio tous meeting ? Mr. .Mereweather considered that, although they might go silently to the walls of the House of De tention, yet, when there for the purposes of destruc tion, they were virtually a riotous and tumultuous meeting. Mr. Baron Pigott—You would not call these men who went to burn a hay stack a riotous and tumultuous meeting ? • Mr. Baron Martin said that, according to the book before him, that there must be more than three persons assembled together, and they must by overt acts create a riot and tumult, and it was property destroyed during the existence of such a condition of things that the inhabitants of the Hundred were responsible for. _ _ The Lord Chief Baron said that he was most de cidedly of opinion that this blowing up of the House of Detention did not come within the scope of a riotous and tumultuous meeting. The Court accordingly found for the defendants. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.--THIS DAY. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. THE FENIANS. —A SCENE AT THE WEST END.— Dennis Lee, a costermonger, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with stealing a pint-pot, containing sreet g s e s. ne w r o al rth de o a f le c r o , p o p f ers r belonging ho3nix to Mr. Whitton, a Soho, and the case having been proved against him he was com mitted for trial. Out of the above ease arose the following : Patrick Murphy, a tailor, was charged with being disorderly and attempting to rescue Lee from cus tody, and also with assaulting Police-sergeants Nathan Leech, 17 C, and George Appleton, 26 C. Sergeant Leech said—Yesterday evening about seven o'clock I was in Little Pulteuey-street, where there was an assemblage of above a thousand persons in consequence of the Fenian prisoners having been liberated. Ann Justice was standing at the open window, at a first floor, clapping her hands, and inciting the mob to make a disturbance, and calling out " Fenian Victory." As the man Lee was being taken along the street to the station on a charge of felony, the prisoner called out, " is one of our own ; do not let him be taken down," and then caught hal of Lee, and said " You shall not go down." I pulled the prisoner away, and he then struck me on the side of the head with his fist, and I then took him into custody, and on the way to the station the prisoner kicked Sergeant Appleton, who came to my assistance, and was very violent at the station. The prisoner is known as being a constant associate of the men who were acquitted, and was arrested at the time with them, but discharged. The Prisoner —I do not remember anything that occurred. mr. Tyrwnitt—Was the prisoner drunk'? Sergeant Leech,-Yes. • . Sergeant Appleton ,26 C—l was passing along Little Pulteney-street yesterday evening, and saw, Lee in custody, and the prisoner strike Sergealit Leech, and try to rescue Lie. I assisted in taking the prisoner to the st ition, and we had a great diffi 7 cltlty in doing so. () ti th e way the prisoner kicked me, and he also kicked me at the station. The Prisoner—l am not acquainted with any of the prisoners, who were discharged yesterday. James Weeks, 160 Alt.—l was taking Lee to the station on the charge of felony, when the pri soner came up and said, " Denny, have a fling for it," and then the sergeant came to my assist ance. Mr. Tyrwhitt,There was a time when the tailor trade was a quiet one, but it was now a pugnaCl94B; one; and the prisoner would be dealt with accord-' ingly, and go to prison for 14 days for each . assault. Maria Burns was charged as f o ll ow s :—Police constable Owen, -140 C—l was in Little Pulteney street yesterday even i og an d saw th e p r isoner there. She was creating a di stur b ance. Sh e was drunk, and one of the leaders of the disturbance which was going on. I got her away after the disturbance, but as she returned and would not leave, I took her into custody. Tyrwhitt _ — . What was She doing ? Constable—Sh e h ad her b onne t off, her hair hanging down, an d she was swinging her arms about in a triumph ant manner. S,Tgeaut Applet on —l saw t h e p r isoner inciting the mob to rais e a di stur b ance, an d s he was drunk. Mr. Tyrwhitt—r ue prisoner will have to pay 5 5. , or seven days. Mary Ryan, of Green's-court, Little Pulteney street, was charged as follows : Timberlake, 129 A It —I was in Little Pulteney street last night, where about 700 or 800 persons were collected, and the prisoner, who was drunk, and had been turned out of different houses, was making a great disturbance by shouting out at the top of her voice, 4, Hurrah, hurrah," and as I could not get rid of her I took her into custody. The Prisoner—l only went to see what was the matter. Mr. Tyrwhitt—One may see by your appearance (she w.,s a very low-looking woman) what sort of people were assembled. You are too contemptible to be sent to prison, and are therefore discharged. It appears that Little Pulteney-street was in a state of uproar all yesterday evening in consequence of the friends of the discharged Fenians celebrating the event, and such was the commotion caused that it was necessary far the superintendent, two inspec tors, and several constables to be in attendance. The attempt to procTe a judicial condemnation of . the Catholic doctrine on the subject of the Blessed Sacrament is being prosecuted under some what remarkable circumstances. The Court of Queen's Bench i s asked to issu e its mandamus to compel the Bishop of London to institute proceed ings against a priest of the diocese of Bath and Wells, on the ground that the doctrine impugned was pub lished in a work sold within the diocese of Lou don. It is obvious that if the Court should comply with this application, Dr. Tait m i g ht soon fi n d himself in the position of ecclesiastical prose cutor for the entire Anglican Church. Judging from the language of the Lord Chief Justice, there is very little fear that so InDnstr el o l u t s ly a the Churchproposition will be acceded to, and consequently Association will be compelled to adopt some other expedient for carrying out its p2rsecuting, policy. The language charged against Mr. Bennett can hardly be said to be theologically ac curate so far as it implies nakedly a " visible " presence, but it is not the inaccu racy, but the true Catholic doctrine covered by it which is the ground of complaint. It is worthy of remark that the party which seeks the condemna tion of a doctrine which bespeaks a special reverence for the person of our Blessed Lord has not a word to say against those who deny His divinity. They persecute those who uphold the unchanging faith of the Catholic Church, but they cheerfully tolerate °hYrisey, who strike at stianity.—Chi(rch, gainsayersthe rdcardinal l a i l k e verities ColC ol e s o a of nd V c Times, SPORTING INTELLIGEITOE. NEWMARKET FIRST SPRING MEET - ING. TUESDAY. THE Two THOUSAND GUINEA!. What has been termed the "Trial Heat" for Eh() great event on Epsorn litpwns has caused this year Mae. - usual amount of interest and speculation, puzzled prophets . , per-- plexed touts, and made the keenest judgment falter to its award. The hems who were favourites in the wintar are now so no longer ; the "crack " who but some-0 hours since was bound to be second, if not first, has temporal ily disappeared from the scene. Something of this sorb of thing occurs every year ; but every year it comes u.pon lts with a certain amount of freshness, and we are elntrd or cast down, our views confirmed or upset, much as has be n the case for the last 20 years. If history repeats itself, turf history does so in a peculiar manner, as any one who takes the trouble to glance over a file of our spotting con tempotaries may perceive. After the result of the Middle Park Plato last year, in which S:r Joseph Hawley was first and second, tho Two Thousand was considered at his mercy. Throughout the winter Rosicrucian had been the acknowt'dged horse of the stable, but influenza a short time sinco breaking out in it Sir Joseph has had to seek the winner from among the other descendants of Beadsman. The running of Blue Gown in the Craven week appeared to put him out of it, and so the Middle Park winner, Green Sleeve, at the elevent't hour becomes the rei , resentative of this gentleman.. Formosa, who was certainly third in the Middl.3 Park Plate, has been throughout much fancied by the public for this event, and the way iu which Lo Sarraziu has been • backed, together with the excellent form shown in France by Count de Lagrange, brought him yesterday to the position, of first favourite. This morning saw other changes. As little as 3to 1 was taken about Green Sleeve at the Rooms, and the two mares dispossessed.the Frenchman from his position. To keep up the stock of surprises, the supposed knocked ont and broken-down Pace came again, and was freely backed at 10 to 1. Fourteen came to the post, and with the exception sif Vale Royal, Bauditto, St. Ronan, and Moslem, wore saddled in the enclosure at the end of the Rowley Mile. The appearance of Pace, Formosa, RosicruCian, Green Sleeve, and Le sarrazin co nmanded the most attention, and 'if the first named, had broken down, as ,was coofi-_ deafly said, he certainly had recovered in a surprisingly short time. At the appointed hour they were given in charge to the starter, and soon despatched, the colours of Moslem, For mosa, Le Sarrazin, St. Ronan, Danditto, and Sir Joseph's two being the first to show in the van, a position they kept to the Bushes, when Formosa and Moslem took - a more decided lead, and in the Abingdon Bottom these two drew away, and ran an exciting race home, attended by St. Ronan, the first two making a dead head of it. Moslem appeared to us to run a little the stouter of the two, and would probably have been the favourite if the heat had been run off, but the owners agreeing to divide, Moslem walked over. The pace was good, and if the running of those behind the three placed be eorrect it is not Derby form. The day was a disagreeable one. The heavy raine of Monday had failed to lay the dust, and the wind was cold. The attendance was immense, and the "rough" element rather unpleasantly preponderated.

Formosa then took her place at the girths of Mr. Crawfurd's colt, about half a length in advance of Le Sarrazin, Groon Sleeve, Rosicrucian, and Vale Royal, the last-named four being nearly abreast. In fact, so closely packed were the seven as they swept over, the brow of the hill that a sheet would have hidden the lot, but as they de scended the hill for the Abingdon Mile bottom Le tiaras zin was observed to be in difficulties; and shortly after lost his place, followed when fairly in the dip by Green Sleeve and Rosicrucian. These retirements left the race With the three, who came on together to the commence meet of the rails, Moslem still having a trifle the best of it to half-way up the hill; St. Ronan gave way; Fordhatn at the same time brought up Formosa, who apFeared to have the best of it for a few strides, but Moslem coming again with great gameness, and getting tr . ) in the last staid-, the pair finished a splendid race with a dead heat.

The general character of the sports has consider ably improved at Beaumont. While many of the performances of the big boys have not equalled those of past years, the younger ones have cotue up with rapid strides, and in one or two instances have fairly beaten competitors several years their seniors. Taking into consideration the respective ages the younger boys have invariably been the pick of the school. This year it is eminently conspicuous. The senior high and pole jumping was a failure compared with the junior. The two best races of the day, viz., the two mile and one mile handicaps, were both won by boys under 13 years of age—the first of them ran two miles, less GOO yards, in 12 minutes; the second, a still finer performance, ran a mile, less 150 yards, iu 5 minutes 40 seconds. We shall be greatly sur prised if these two young performers—the half-mile winner and the first and second in the mile for the challenge cup—are not heard of at a future day. The one mile challenge race was a remarkably good event, and over heavy grass the time, 5 minutes 3 seconds, was good going. Looking at the number of big boys lounging about it was a pity there should be so few entries for the crack race of the school. It is, however, a consolation to find some of the Catholic colleges waking up, and it will be really quite animating to find young men on leaving schoo distinguishing themselvt s in national athletic sports, and noticeable -for something more than inferior billiard playing in mild clubs. Beaumont and Ampleforth should be congratulated on opening the way to a healthier state of things. From the list of performance::: at these t wo. colleges now before us we see a very remark.tbla promise of great things ; and, as we have said, it will be a matter of surprise if some of the competitors' names do not figure con spicuously later on in first-class meetings. There were many visitors on both days, who were most hospitably entertained at the college. THE FENIAN TRIALS. (Continu3d from our First Edition of yesterday.) In cross-examination by Ernest Jones the wit ness was severely tested as to his knowledge of Burke in America. Did not know when he was promoted, or under what General he served.
