The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday was rather less animated, but firm at extreme prices for all kinns, and an advance of id. per lb. was estab lished cn Brazil qualities. The sales were 5,000 bales. The Railway Share Market was dull, and prices were about the same as on Saturday. As the Eastern exchange presents no important variation from those previously current, the de mand for silver and the scale of exportation will continue to give active employment to the dealers in bullion. Since the delivery of the mail the market has been a trifle firmer, and it is believed that the shipments on the 4'h will approach 800,0001. It is impossib'e to tell how the insurrection in India may effect this drain, but as far as can be at present determined it is likely to cause increased remittances. A large amount must necessarily be expended to restore order and to make arrangements with the view of preventing any fresh outbreak. If therefore the Indian Go vernment cannot obtain the necessary funds in the money markets of Calcutta and Bombay, we may expect an appeal to capitalists here. The imports of specie from the Continent, chiefly silver, continue large, nearly 100 cases having been announced yesterday, principally from Ant werp and Rotterdam. There is a good demand for money to-day. The half-yearly balances will be struck at most of the banking establishments this evening, and the en quiry has increased owing to a desire on the part of depositors to have as much standing to their credit as possible. A meeting of the class A shareholders of the St. Andrew's and Quebec Railway Company was held this day. The Chairman moved that the bill en titled " A bill to incorporate the New Brunswick and Canada Railway and Land Company, and for other purposes relating to the said company," be approved. Mr. Bates seconded the motion, which was agreed to by a very large majority. A meeting of the New Brunswick and Canada - Land and Railway Company was also held, at which the report was agreed to. There is nothing of interest to report in connec tion with the English Stock Market, beyond a va riation of per cent. At the commencement the prices were a shade firmer, owing to a more settled feeling with regard to the insurrection in India, but n °permanent improvement has been established, and the market now appears lather flat. Very little business is in progress, the share settlement engrc”sing chief attention. Consols for the ac count have been 92/ W, and are now about 9213- The New Threes are 9 2 & /, the Reduced 92 tz, and Long Annuities 2 7-16. There is rather more firmness for Exchequer Bills, the quotationa now being 7s. to 2s. discount, and the Bonds are 98a I f . There is a very inactive market for Foreign Stocks, but prices are steady. Turkish 6 per Cents. are 95/ 96 ; Chilian 6 per Cents. 1034 Danish 5 per Cents. 102 ; Peruvian 4i per. Cents. 80 ; Sar dinian 5 per Cents. 89i ; and Spanish Certifi ewes Q. Business in the Railway Share Market is ex tremely flat, and the transactions are chiefly con nected with the settlement. All the leading lines, including Great Northern, Lancashire and York shire, Bright in, North Western, and Midland, are within a traction of the rates current yesterday, but the tendency is rather unfavourable. The East Indian and Canadian lines are quiet, but generally heavy. The Foreign, in which there are very few dealings, are firm. North of France have risent to 59a. In Mines, Banks, and Miscellaneous Shares there is no feature to notice. B tITISH FUNDS.—CLOSING PRICES—THIS DAY. (,From the Officsal List;) Business done. 3 wt. Cent.

I IAI The French Ministerial papers, the Constitu tionnel and Pays; publi , h, by command, no doubt, an article expressing the most magnificent wrath at the remarks made upon the late elections in France by the English press. These interesting twins of the Government press are under one direction, they are inspired by the same breath, they derive their existence from the same source, and they perform the same tune with the least possible variation on the subject givtn to them. Lrke the Juftaks of the Persian poet, they always move in couples— " Like Cum sweet birds that fly Vgether, With feather always touching feather, Linke by a hook and eye." The Constitutionnel and Pays are inclignant that it should for a moment he supposed that France does not enjoy the most complete liberty of writing, speaking, and voting ; and from the summit to which they are placed they affect t') look down with pity, and perhaps with neon, on the inferiority of other countries in all these respects. France, as she is now ruled, is, ac ording to them, the model of a free and enlightened nation, and anybody who says the contrary is only moved by a narrow and rancorous jealousy. BAIL WAY INTELLIGENCE'. NORTH AND SOUTH-WESTERN JUNCTION. A special general meeting of the proprietors was held yesterday, for the purpose of having submitted to them a bill now before Parliament for making a line from the North London Railway to Richmond, to be called the " Richmond and Kew Extension Railway." Mr. H. Tootal was in the chair. The Solicitor of the company having read the head notes of the bill, The Chairman explained that the measure was brought forward by independent parties, and the North London Company would not have to contri bute towards its construction. The bill was to enable the company to make traffic arrangements with the promoters of the proposed line, should the measure be sanctioned by Parliament. The extension would be very beneficial to the North London proprietors. The bill was sanctioned unanimously. HAYMARKET THEATRE.—Last evening a new farce was produced at the Haymarket Theatre, under the title, "The First and Second Floor." The piece was announced for repetition amidst loud applause. ADELPHI THEATRE.—Mr. and Mrs. Barney Williams appeared last night in a new farce, entitled "Latest from New York," and written expressly for them by Mr. Sterling Coyne. The farce was quite succesful. STAR CLUB OF LONDON.—A general meeting of the members of this club and their friends is announced far Wednesday, the 22d July, when it is understood that the party will proceed to Richmond in the City state barge, and partake of a dejeuner at the Star and Garter, or some private mansion lent for the occasion. The Honourable Artillery Band will be lent for the (m -otion. WELLINGTON MONUMENT.—Yesterday the works commenced in Westminster Hall for the erection of the models sent in by the competing artists for the _monu ment to be erected in St. Paul's Cathedral, to the me mory of the late Duke of Wellington , _ which are to be thrown open to public inspection. Tim total number sent in is 77, about 50 being contributed by British and 27 by foreign artists. The Commissioner of Works has given notice that artists who desire it will be allowed to erect their own models between the 6th and the 11th of July. The exhibition will be opened to the public on the 20th July. THE MURDER AT CHINGFORD HATCH.—An adjourned inquest was held yesterday on the body of Mary White, the woman murdered on the 21st. The coroner said that as the medical man had not made a sufficient exa mination of the body he should again adjourn the inquest for that purpose, and gave an order fur the exhumation of the remains. Yesterday notices were circulated *Et:ging a government reward of 1001, for the apprehen sion of Jonathan Grrydoe, charged with the wilful murder of Mary WLite, at Chingford Hatch.

MEETING THIS DAY. rush out of the house, when some one called ont, "The , thief has run across thorned." Witness went over towards St. Saviour's Church-yard, and saw the prisoner in the custody of a constable who had his watch. On cross examination by Mr. Solomon, witness said that ho bad not had anything to drink before be lost his watch. In fact, be had not time to order it, the robbery was com mitted so quick. Daniel Flynn Sullivan, police-constab'e, 102 311, said that he was o❑ duty near the London-bridge terminus at a quarter past nine on Sunday night, when he saw the prisoner leaving Walker's stout-house in a hurried manner with a coat hanging on one arm. He ran across the road, followed by several persons who called out " Stop thief." Witness crossed over towards St. Saviour's Church, when a man came up and charged the prisoner with stealing his watch. The prisoner said "He was a respectable young man, and the peaty had better mind what he said." Witness toll him he was charged with felony, and he must search him, when he distinctly saw him drop the watch from under his coat. Witness picked it up, and took him to the eta.tien-house. On cross-examination by Mr. Solomon, witness said he was positive that the prisoner dropped the watch, and at the same time he attempted t ) get towards the steps leading to the B ‘rough Market. Mr. Solomon—Did he not say that he had just picked the watch up ? Constable—He did not, sir. All be said was, "I am a respectable young man ; mind what you are doing." Magistrate—Did ho say anything after you took him into custody I Constable—He made no reply, sir, The magistrate said tbat the evideece was such that he must send the case before a jury unless the prisoner chose to plead before him. If he preferred the latter ho must plead guilty. Mr. Solomon said he was instructed to say that his client did not steal do watch. The magistrate tell him if such was the case he should send him before a jury for trial. Mr. Solomon, after consulting with his client, said he had no wish to go to the sessions. He would plead guilty and throw himself upon the mercy of the court. Tie understood he was a respectable, young mar. and had a first-rate character for honesty and sobriety. The son of his master here stepped forward and spoke highly as to his general character, having been employed in a con fidential situation for three months. Mr. Pugh, a chemist io the Borough-road, also gave him an excellent cha racter, he having employed am for some time in at tending to his accounts .in the evening. Hie family were also highly respectable people. The magiatr..te (Mr. Combe) said it was one of those cases which could hardly be accounted for, and com mitted in such a style which made it appear to him that the prisoner must have received instructions from expert members of the swell mob,'who commit similar robberies with the use of a coat on the arm to cover their actions. His having a good ,Oharaater made the crime more heinous on his part, and ho (Hr. C.rmbe) should not be doing his duty unless he sentenced him to a very severe punishment. The sentence of the court was that he be imprisoned in the House of Correction for three months, with hard labour, and he now left that Court as a con vic4d thief. The prisoner, who seemed deeply to feel his situation, was then removed by the gaoler. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. VIOLENT ASSAULT BY A. FEENCUMAN AND A FEENCiI FEMALE.—Joieph Louis, Wal..,r Marshall, and Adele B'anc, natives of France, were charged with violently assaulting poliee-conetable C 53, and also with creating a disturbance at the Devonshire Arms, Queen-street, Golden-square, and breaking a pane of glass in the house. _ _ Mi.. Bell, landlord of the Devonshire Arms, said that bet seen five and six o'clock last night, the male pri soners came to the house in a cab. When they entered they immediately assaulted a wan in front of the bar. Cmnplainant gut Marshall cut of the house. A police man was called in who 14id hold of Louis and took him out. While he was passing a door, he broke a pane of glass. The prisoners vicre eventually lodged in the sta tion-house. Mr. Beadon—What did the female prisoner do ? Complainant—She followed the men into the house and assaulted them. She acted like a fury. Mr. Albert, interpreter of the court, explained the charge to the prisoners. He stated that the female pri Boner admitted they were drunk and did not know what they were doing. C 53, who took the prisoners into custody, said that when he seized hold of L3wis be was knoblted down by him. He got up, when both the prisoners rushed at him, and they both assaulted him. He was knocked down, and while on the ground was severely kicked by them. The female assisted them and scratched his face. Two " Civilians " came to his assistance, and who took the prisoners away. The prisoners were severally fined 405., or, in default of payment, one month each in the Mouse of Cor rection. _ _ M. — Albert said that tie fines would be paid. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. TATTERSALL'S-MONDAY. The room was well attended, but a "duller Monday" was never witnessed. With the exception of a few in. vestments on Rosati for the Goodwood Stakes, and several inquiries after Arsenal for the St. Leger, busi ness was at a Stand—Jill, and when the subscribers die persed we were enabled to compile only the following ecsnty list of quotations : CIIELMSPORD HANDICAP. 3to 1 agst Renown (taken) WORCESTER STAKES. 5 to 2 apt Oakball (taken) GOODWOOD STAKES. 8 to 1 agst Rosati (taken and offered) 14 to 1 agst Martinet (taken to 1001) 14 to 1 agst Squire Wa't (taken) 16 to 1 ag , t Fulbeck (taken) 20 to 1 agst Hobgoblin (taken) 20 to 1 agst Warlock (taken) 50 to 1 agst Squire Watt winning this event and Arsenal Vie Goodwood Cup (t) GOODWOOD Our. 4 to 1 agst Arsenal 10 to 1 agst Gainma di Vergy (taken) 12 to 1 agst F.izzolltto 12 to 1 agst Fl win (taken) ST.

The case of the Membf.rs's Plate was brought before the committee at Tattersalt's, and in the course of the after uo.in the following notice was posted : " The committee are of opinion that the stewards of Newcastle bad no power or authority tc declare the bets off on the Members' Plate. (Signed) " EXMOUTH. H. J. Rous. G. PAINE. C. GREVILLIC." The error committed by the stewards in causing the "deciding heat" to be run after the last race appointed for the day, was also loudly condemned ; for if the start was invalid the race should have been run as near to the proper time a 4 possible. Of course bets are determined by the " last heat," and as people who backed Logie o' Buchan and others who did not put in an appearance the second time, are in doubt whether they can be called upon to pay. We subjoin the Jockey Club rule (40) which bears upon the question : " When the riders of any horses brought out to run for any race are called upon by the persons appointed to start them to take their places for that purpose, the owner of every horse which comes up to the post shall be considered as liable to pay his whole stake, and all bets respecting such horses shall be considered as pay or play bets." EARLY BlRD.—This horse broke his leg whilst at exer cise on Friday morning last. He was galloping at the time and in the act of changing his leg, when he struck them with Euch violence as to cause the accident men tioned. AQUATICS. CITY, TEMPLE, AND STRAND REGATTA. A regatta amongst the watermen of the above locality, and under the patronage of the Duke of Norfolk, the Lord Mayor, Lord John Russell,Sir James Duke, Baron Rothschild, and the executive committee of the Conservative Land Society, took place yesterday, in three heats, and attracted a great many spectators.

(Stripes) The distance was from the Red Lion to a boat moored off Chiswick Eyot, round a boat moored off the Queen's, and finish at the Red Lion, - The yearly meeting of the shareh >l lers in this under taking was held this afternoon at the Bridge-hoe se Hotel, London Bridge. Mr. tAudereon, the chairman of the directors, presiding. The follewing report of the directors was read by the society :-- The total revenue of the company during the last year was 115,927/. fle. M., and the expenses 87,871/. 19s. 141. showing a profit of 27,735/. 7s. 7d. on the year's opera tions. A large amount, upwards of 11,0 :1/., has been spent in the maintenance of the fabric. This has chiefly oc curred in connection with the floors and roofs of the pa lace, the former of which were Much decayed from their having been in contact with the earth of the flower beds; and the latter, from their nature and extent, required time before settling to their places, during which constant supervision and expense have been necessary. The floors have been thoroughly repaired throughout, in such a man ner as to prevent a recurrence of the decay, and the roofs of the great transept and of the other parts of the build ing have also been refitted, and put into a state of perfect repair and effieiency, and are now stronger and better than at any f rrner period. A considerable outlay has been also incntrel in the department of the external gardens —works rendered necessary front the fact that a consi derable portioh of the lower part of the park had hitherto been in an unfiished state ; the whole has now been laid oat mai planted, and walks carried round the whole of the gardens, thus adding very considerably to their extent and attraction. In addi tion, an extensive cricket-groun 1 has been formed, which will, undoubtedly, become a source of revenue in future years. As the whole of these works are now completed, no farther outlay on this head is likely to be acquired. The directors are deeply impressed with the great importance of reducing the expense under all heads to the lowest possible liosit ; but still they believe that the real interests of the shareholders are best consulted by maintaining the palace and park at the highest state of efficiency and perfection, and, acting on this principle, they have felt that they had no alternative but to sanction such outlay as was necessary to attain this object. There had hien a large expenditure under the head of fetes arising from the cost of extraordi nary attractions for temporary purposes, such as for the opera concerts, flower shows, poultry shows, peace festival, &e. ; but as on a careful analysis -it is found that all these have not only repaid the sums expended on them, but have left a considerable profit, this outlay has been practicaly beneficial to the company. The arrangements made with Mr. Gye for the present year are of a nature considerably more favourably to the company than those of last season, and as the opera concerts continue to prove attractive the directors trust that the result will he as sa tisfactory as it was last year. The poultry show was rn experiment which proved highly successful, notwithstand ing its novelty and the season of the year at which it took place, and it is confidently expected that shows of a similar nature will in future become not only a source of attraction to the public, but also of revenue to the com pany. The directors refer with pleasure to the augmen tation in the guess receipts of the company, every branch of which shows au increade. The total number of visitors to the palace daring the twelve months has been 1,412,922, against 1,352,113 in the previous twelve months, and the amount received for admissions, exclusive of sea am tickets, is 70,5441. 183., against 61,1111. 12s. 2d. In the exhibiting department there is also a satisfactory in crease in the total amount realised, and by the operation of economy on the one hand, and increased receipts on the other, a net profit has been obtained of nearly 6,0001. for the last year, against very little more than 3,0001. in the preceding twelve months, while the building is now more occupied both in the selling and non-selling departments, than at any former period since the opening. Arrange ments have been entered into with' various p trties, which the directors hope wili further iecrease this branch of re venue during the current twelve months. The disadvan tage under which the undertaking has hitherto la boured from the insufficiency of cheap and rapid means of transit between the palace and the west-end of the metropolis and other populous districts, will in a comparatively short time be removed. The opening of the West-end line; although only to Wan isworth Common, has already had no inconsiderable effect in increasing the number of visitors to the pllaee. The directors are assured this line will b 3 opened through to Battersea by the end of the year. They are also informed that the Mid-Kent line will by the same period have formed a junction with the populous districts to the eastward, thus brining Green wich, Woolwich, and all the suburbs in that Urection into immediate contact with the Palace. It is also hoped that the junction may be shortly formed with the Smith- Western line, and through that line with the North- Western and Great Western Rail ways, so that excursions from the north, south, and west of England may be con veyed to the Palace without change of carr'age. ' When all this is completed the great practical difficulty of ac cess to the Palace from London will be to a great extent obviated ; and as every year must add materially to this accommodation the directors look forward with confidence to the undertaking being placed on a secure self supporting basis. All liabilities under the head of " Ca pitA Account " are now discharged, with the exception of the balance due for purchase of land and the liability in respect of Dulwich Wood; and it will be seen that there has been no material excess over the estimates given by the shareholders' committee and in the directors' report to the last meeting. This account may therefore be consi dered as practically closed, except in so far as it may be `effected by the frauds committed by Robson. It should be remarked, however, that several considerable amounts for the completion of works to the building and park, in curre during the last year, have been charged to revenue, which might strictly have been charged to capital; but it has been the desire of th© directors, actingon the expressed opinion of the shareholders, to treat the capital account as chew, even at the expense of making the revenue account for the past year look less favourable than it otherwise would have done. _ _ . in regard to the Robson frauds, tha directors go on to say that the total amount of cash abstracted by itoMon, together with the expenses incurred in his apprehension and conviction, and in the subsequent investigation by Messrs. Quitter, Ball, and Co., amounts to about 4,0001. against' which a sum of at least 1,0014 will be recoverable from his estate. The bal Luce of 8,0001. the directors pro pose should be written off at once to the debit of revenue, thus leaving the capital account to bear only the amount of shares actually created by Robson. From the final report of Messrs. Quitter, Ball, and Co., on their investigation into the extent and nature of these frauds—an elaborate docurdent, which iS in the hands of the directors—the total amount of shares fraudulently issued appears to have boen 3,446 ordinary shares at 5/ , representing 17,2301,. and 2,161 preference shay es, representing 10,7931., thus showing in the aggregate an increase of only 137/ on the sum named in the preliminary report of Messrs. Quilter, Ball, and. Co. The mode in which Robson perpetrated these frauds has had the effect of already adding to the ordinary an a preference share capital the respective amounts above stated, and which could not now be disposed o', ex cept by buying back the shares, and cancelling the over issue, au operation far which the directors have neither the means nor the requisite powers. Under these circum stances there appears to be no alternative but to leave those amounts to stand against the capital. DULWICH WOOD.-- The directors are glad to announce that all technical difficulties with regard to the sub-letting of the Dulwich Wood property are at last removed, and they hope soon to be able to announce such arrangements as may cause this property to cease being a burthen on the finances of the company, and at the same time become an attraction and accommodation to visitors to the Palace. The CHAIRMAN said he regretted the depressed state of their dividends, but he felt sure they would turn the corner yet. (Hear, hear ) He held himself 2,000 shares, and had never sold one out. The directors had ascertained that musical entertainments, on a large scale, must, after all, be the source to which they must ultimately look for remuneration. The Handel Festi val confirmed this ; it had proved very successful in a commercial way. He would move that the report be adopted. Mr. SLACK complained that the expenditure on music, pictures, &c., had been far too heavy, involving what he considered an unnecessary outlay in one instance, affecting the dividends to the extent of 15,0001. Mr. MAIMS said he hoped the meeting would be ad journed. A resolution was moved by Mr. PUNCHARD to the effect that a Committee of seven shareholders be ap• pointed to confer with the directors on the accounts of the company ; that a list of names, salaries, and duties of each officer be published annually ; that all commissions to the company's servants be abolished; and that the meeting be adjourned for fourteen days. The CHAIRMAN amended the resolution by adding that the postponement extend to the 30th July. Some further discussion of a "lively" character then took place, when the amendment for postponing the meeting, and appointing a committee was agreed to. Altogether the meeting was about as disorderly and irregular as could well be imagined. LAW INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day.) COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner Evans.) IN BE BO=SON.—THIS CRYSTAL PALACE FRAUDS. A meeting was held this day under the estate of this bankrupt, to investigate the accounts between the bank rupt and Mr. E. T. Smith. Mr. Smith now attended and produced sundry ♦ouchers which were not in his possession at the last xaunnatiou. Mr. Monk, the solicitor to the assignees, compared the vouchers with the accounts, and said he was per fectly satisfied as to their accuracy. Mr. Johnson, the official assignee, said that he had checked the accounts. He Expressed his regret that the il:ness of Mr. Smith had prevented the documents being produced before, as they would have perfectly cleared up any doubts, and Mr. Smith need not have been troubled. There was a small balance against Mr. Smith, who would give his cheque at once for toe amount. The case only occupied a few minutes. (Before Mr. Commissioner Foublanque.) IN RE CAMERON.—PALMERSTON SAUCE. To-day was appointed for the last examination of this bankrupt, who had carried on business as an Export 0,1 Merchant, in Camomile-street, and is the inventor of the celebrated "Palmerston Sauce," the sale of which is said to considerably increase the amount of the divi dend. The debts are about 2,0001., and present assets about 7001. Mr.Bachanan appeared for the bankrupt who passed without opposition. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.— (This Day. SOUTHWARK. EXTRAORDINARY CHARON OF FRLONT • AGAINST A CLERIC OF A PARISH OFFICIAL.—John Newman, a very respectable-looking young man, of good connexions, and who holds a situation as clerk to one of the leading parish officials of St. George's, Southwark, was placed in the dock, charged with stealing a silver watch from the person of Thomas Seymour, under very extraordi nary circumstances. Mr. Solomon appeared for the accused. The prosecutor, a brick and tile-maker, stated that on Sunday night, about 9 o'clock, he arrived at the London bridge Terminus with some friends, and proceeded with them to the Londoti-bridge Tavern opposite, to partake of son.e refreshments. While there he saw that his watch was perfectly safe in his waistcoat pocket, and a guard chain attached round his neck. Suddenly he felt a tug at his watch, and en looking down he saw his Ichain hanging loosely down, and his watch was gone.

The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat at five o'clock.. The Earl of EGLINGTON presented a petition against the Oaths Bill. Lord REDESDALE presented a petition against the abolition of Church rates without an equivalent. THE SLAVE RRADE. Lord BROUGHAM presented a petition from a gen tleman in reference to the affairs of John Sadleir, com plaining that if a bill now before their lordships was passed he would be deprived of certain•rights. The noble and harced lord presented a petition in favour of the Oaths bill, a`nd also one against the revival of the African slave trade, and proceeded to call the attention of their lordships to an order said to have been given by the Emperor of the French to a certain house at Marseilles to fit out an Expedition, having for its object the importation of 10,000 free negroes, ac they were called, into the French colonies. The first Napoleon had taken the most active steps to re press the borrid traffic throughout his dominions. He could hardly think that the present Em peror would depart from the course pursued by his uncle. He trusted that her Majesty's Govern ment would adopt the most energetic measures to induce the new Government of the Havattnah to put down the slave trade, as he was rejoiced to see the Bra- Tian Government had done. He trusted the Emperor of the French would do all in his power to discourage any attempt to revive the sldve trade at Marseilles, which was not4rious some years ago for the activity with which it carried on the slave trade. _ The Earl of CLARENDEN entirely concurred in the observations of the noble and ls”.rned hid on the sub ject. He had seen an account in the newspapers that it was the intention of certain parties to import a large quantity of free negroes into the Freneh Hie noble friend had received a deputation on the subject of the imprtation of free negroes, and they were told that the Government could not approve of such a proceeding. He believed that several bona fide attempts had been made to introduce free negroes into the colonies, but it was considered by the British Government that such attempts if euccessful, would only lead to an extension of the slave-trade. With respect to the cir cumstances mentioned by the noble lord about a certain house at Marseilles, the Government had received no official intelligence on the subject. He therefore could give his nobls and learned friend no positive informs lion on the point. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The Glasgow Gas Bill was read a second time.

OXFORD UNIVERSITY BILL. On the order of the day for the second reading of this kn.o, The Earl of CARNARVON rose to present a petition against a certain clause in the bill, and entered at seine length into the principles of the bill of which he etrorg 'y disapproved. The Earl of HARROWBY, after presenting a num ber of petitions in favour of the bill, proceed to explain in detail the objects of the bill. (LEFT ePEAKING.) HOUSE OF COMMON=-(This Day.) The SPRAKER took the chair at twelve o'clock. BOD MIN ELECTION. The SPEAKER, informed the house that be had re ceived a letter from the agents of the petitioners against the return of the sitting member (Mr. Wyld) stating that it was not their intention to proceed with the peti tion. Mr. WYLD said it was his intention at six o'clock this eveuiug, to call attention to the circumstances connected with this petition. The petitioners had libelled himself and his constituents, and the forms of the house prevented him from appealing to any other tribunal. He should move that certain documents be placed in the hands of the law authorities, and that certain individuals should be called to the bar of the house. SOUTH EASTERN RAILWAY (GREENWICH JUNCTION TO DARTFORD). On the consideration of the report of the committee on this bill, Lord A. PAGET moved that the bill be read a third time. Sir E. DEERING said he felt very much dissatisfied with the result of the deliberation of the committee, and he should therefore move that the bill be read a third time that day three months. Col. FREESTUN supported the third reading of the bill, as the committee had resolved that the pre amble bad been proved. Mr. 13. OSBORNE strongly opposed the further progress of the bill. Mr. RICH said the committee bad declared in favour of this line, and the bill ought therefore to be read a third time. He complained that the opposi tion to the bill was an attempt, on the part of an opposing railway, to see how much they could screw out of the South-Eastern Railway. Sir B. BRIDGES opposed the bill. Sir B. HALL said the better course to pursue was to postpone the further consideration of the bill until next year. Each of the railway companies said it would be ior the benefit of the public that their respec tive lines should be made, and, under these cir cumstances, if the course he suggested was followed, the two schemes could then be fully considered, and the one which was proved to be the most beneficial to the public adopted. He should vote for the postponement of the bill. Mr. BENTINCK said there bad lately been a dread ful railway accident, and this circumstance afforded additional argument for the postponement of the bill. Mr. GILPIN said that if the present bill had been passed and the time laid down the accident could not or would not have happened. Mr. HOPE should vote for the third reading of the bill. He could not sanction a measure intended to reduce the income of the South-Eastern Railway. Colonel FRENCH—In discussion on private bills it was generally understood that Ministers did not inter fere, yet the house had been addressed by two members of the Government, the hon. baronet the member for Marylebone and the hon. member for Dover. The latter hon. member might, as he represented Dover, have some reason fur interfering, but not so in the other instance. He should support the third reading. Sir J. V. SHELLEY, considering the part of the metropolis the right hon. bart represented, he had more right to interfere in this discussion than the hon. gen tleman, the member for Roscommon. He should vote for the postponement of the third reading of the bill. After a short discussion, in which Mr. Watkins, Mr. T. Dancombe, Mr. Cobbett, and the Earl of March, the bill wag ordered to be read a third time without a division. The Pimlico Improvement and the Public Offices Extension las were real a second time. FINSBURY PARK BILL. The adjonrned debate on this bill was then resumed. Mr. COX said the vote of the house on the previous occasion when the subject was under discussion was acovted by the Blard of Work-, as a denial of a Government grant to the park. Mr. WILLIAMS withdrew his amendment and the bill was read a second time. BANKRUPTCY AND INSOLVENCY (IRELAND) BILL. The home then went into committee on this bill. Clauses 153 up to 160 were agreed to. Upon clause 161 being propoAed, Mr. BLAND moved an amendment, to the effect that in caeel of bankruptcy no action shoul I be commenced against a shareholder in a company without leave of the court. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL for Ireland said the amendment was a very important one, and such being the case ho suggested striking out of the clause altoge ther. If the ohmic) was struck out he would at a future stage of the bill bring up a clauQui which would meet the views of the honourable member. It would go to the extent of securing, during the proceed ings in bankruptcy, both the property and person of the bankrupt. Clause 161 was accordingly struck out. Cl euses 162 to 314 inclu,ive were agreed to. Clause 315 was struck out. The remaining-clauses df the bill were agreed to, and it was ordered to be reported on Monday next. NE VV MEMBER.

DUBLIN, MONDAY MORNING. THE MURDER OF 1111 i. LITTLE.-FURTHER PROOFS AGAINST THE PRISONER DISCoVERED. The key of Mr. Little's offic.e—taken away on the night of the murder—was found on Saturday evening near the place indicated by Mrs. Spollen. This is regarded as a most important piece of evi dence aganst the prisoner, even though his wife be precluded from giving her testimony before a court of justice, as it appears she is. Thus it will be seen that her statement respecting the concealment of the plunder, and the disposal of the key, with the instruments used in the murder of Mr. Little, has been fully confirmed. That she knows who the murderer is has been prayed. But her hus band denies that he is the guilty party. He does not insinuate a charge against any one else, but contents himself with denying the truth of her dis closure,-. She ihlnks the remainder of the missin g money, about 501., may be found about the pre. 'vises of the railway, as he appeared to use hardly any of the plunder obtained on the night of the murder. An active search for it is in progress. It is a mattor of general curiosity the cause which has led this woman to act the extraordinary part she has taken. It is clear that Spollen had confided all to her. He had not effected the mur der many minutes when he informed her of it. He showed her w 4 here he had concealed some of the money, and told her how he had disposed of the razor, the hammer, the key, .S7c. She kept the dreadful secret for upwards of seven months, and now comes forward to divulge it, well knowing the consequEince in this world. It is stated that she dreaded he would murder her andher children that he might get them as witnesses of his guilt out of the way. She says he attempted to poison her a short time since, and that her existence had become one of intense anxiety and misery. THE EDUCATION CONFERENCE. The Bishop of Oxford tells us that " the diffi culty which we have uow to overcome was not to provide schools for the children, but children for the schools." And Mr. Moseley declares that the neglect of education does not arise from the poverty of the parents ; and that where the parents are ob taining sufficient and comfortable wages, they still fail to appreciate education for their children. What is to be done ? We have said that the re- ligious duty of parents to educate their children cannot be too strongly and constantly urged on them. But you cannot, as we think, force parents to send their children to school, or keep children at school against their will when they can be earning wages to support themselves. W e agree with the Tim , s on this point, that— " there is nothing generally that so speaks for itself and pleads for itself as good schooling." We have seen the thing tried ; and when all other influences—moral, social, and religious—have failed, the establishment of a really good school has overcome the indifference of parents, and the aver sion of children to remaining at school. Very bad parents do not care whether their children ate educated or not ; and very ill-con ditioued children will submit to no restraint to ob tain any amount of learning. But the average of parents and children appreciate education where it is a reality, and not a sham. Parents like to see their children actually knowing more to-day than they did yesterday. And children like a school where they feel that they are taught something worth knowing. Go into the poor men's schools in England and you will see the children bored to death—without interest, animation, or enjoyment. And so the boy or girl goes to work with pleasure, because there is some excitement, something to be seen and learned at that as well as to be got. The factory or the farm is a real thing—half the schools are humbugs. We say, then, to Prince Albert and his excellent friends, go on and prosper. Talk, write, speak about education. It's a noble theme. But all you can do is to supply the country, as fast as possible, with good schoolmasters. That, in our opinion, is the solution of the great educational problem, the way to overcome the difficulty, the thing to be done. And the Committee of Council on Education has effected far more in this way than has ever been done before in this c ountry.—Derbyshire Courier. LLOYD'S SHIPPING.--(This _Dap.)
