LIT ST NEW FRANCE. PARIS, MONDAY EVENING. Th 9 following telegraphic despatches Lave been received here to-day : . " MARSEILLES, July 12.—The Vectis steamer, which was preparing to start, has received orders firm England to wait the arrival of Sir Colin Camp bell, the new Commander-in-Chief in India." " CARLsRunE, July 11.—The Grand Duke, on the oceAsion of the birth of an heredi'ary prince, has granted an amnesty which extends to political offences of 1848 and 1849." The Prince of \Vales visited the cannon foundry at Liege on Friday in all its details, and also the principal buildings of the place. H. R. H. left in Vie afternoon for Germany. The Gazette de France d'seredits a mysterious rumour circulated by two provincial journals, to the effect that M. Thiers has been converted to re- Publican ideas ; but it maintains its previous stite tient respecting the co-operat!on of that statesman 10 the re cen t elections with the luaders of the op position. _ _ _ . _ The Patric opines that the British empire in India is "shaken to the b s ;" it thus expresses this unprejudiced and valuable opinion : "The capture of Delhi will not put an end to the mutiny, as was at first believed. The in creased deser`ion of the native troops has propa gated the danger, and it is fa=r to say, without exaggeration, that the Btitish empire in India is shaken to the base. The energy and activity of Eugland maybe depended on in these critical cir eenistances; she will spare neither men nor money in the defence of her possessions. Nevertheless, we fear that the reinforcements despatched to India will arrive slowly, and that this delay, by permitting the insurrection to develope itself, will render its suppression more difficult and pro tracted."

The Constitutionnel has the following highly coloured account of the state of the Danubian Principalities : " Our letters from Jassy of the 30th ult. state that the situation of things in Moldavia has become more serious than ever. They announce, in fact that a complete disorganisation of all the adminis tration is probable. Discontent is general ; pro tests against the electoral lists circulate in all dis tricts, and to them are added complaints from the municipal authorities. The unpopularity of Prince Vogorides has extended to t•. - e higher classes, and the Government encounters a strong opposition even amongst its own functionaries. We are told that iu several districts, and especially at Cacau, Teccoutche, and Dorohoio, the commissions charged to revise the lists have refused to associate themselves any longer with the- arbitrary policy of the CaiMacan. At Bacau, all the members of the Municipality protested against the conduct of the Prefect and against the ministetial circulars ; and as they have been suspended for this, they have complained to the European commission. Some of the deputy judges of the tribunal were charged to replace them, bnt they have refused, and the citizens generally approve of the refusal. At pre fent Becau is under the sole auihority of the prefect, and the Government has sent a detachment of lancers to th 6 place. A conflict between the sol diers and the people is apprehended. At Tee coutehe the commission has been suspended, for having admitted complaints of electors struck out of the lists ; and at Dorohoio, the Government, not being able to count on the municipality or the judg e; has replaced them by men of bad character. A protest has been signed at Jassy by 500 persons, among whom are the principal clergy and boyards, and it has been sent to Bucharest. Each district also proposes to send a representative to Bucharest, to pr otest, so that the European commission w i ll r ti e :l c :lye Protest s f rom th e mos t honourable men in country,the ltrY. Ou r lett ers from Bucharest state that publication of the instructions relative to the c.onvocatfon of the Divan had taken place, and as ~8 ; 1 Ny' . eks are all owe d to the electors to present their observations, the opening of the Diet will pro bably take place towards the end of August. SPAIN. . ns MA gn n e ßl t b, July 12.—0 n the 4th inst. the band of ? . ur s in the province of Seville was attacked by the tr oo p s w h o h a d b een d espa t c h e d i n pursuit i of t. A very sharp action took place, and the loss Wan considerable on both sides ; but the insurgents were nevertheless completely routed. According to the statement of the Civil Governor of Cadiz, the insurgents met with no sympathy from the Population, and were only able to penetrate into some thinly inhabited villages. The Madrid journals of the 9th have arrived. They publish long details about the insurgents of Utrera, but they contain nothing that is not known already, except that the Queen's troops, though hotly pursuing the fugitives, who it is known have gone in the direction of Gibraltar, had not overtaken them. The dismissed Cap tain-General of Andalusia, General Aleson, had published a proclamation announcing the de feat of the band at Benajon ; it calls them " a horde of bandits," and says that they are " a scandal to society and to the Casilian name." At Malaga, a number of persons of advanced opinions in politics had been arrest el, and " some turbulent men" are stated to have left the place ; it is added that the authorities had sent in pursuit of them. At Seville some democrats had b€en arrested, and a number of young men who bad joined the insurgents of Utrera had been sen tenced by court-martial to hard labour if under 16 years old, and to be shot if above that age. At Cadiz a noted democrat had been arrested, and important papers were found on him. At Logrono on the 28th ult. some Carlist cries had been raised, but order had been restored. In the capital, the rumours of disturbances had ceased. THE LATE DISTURBANCES IN GENOA. TURIN, JULY 10. The Senate met to-day to discuss several bills sent up by the Lower House ; but before proceed ing to that consideration Marquis Paltxvicini- Mossi asked and obtained the permission to put some questions to the Cabinet about the late occur rences at Genoa. Mat quis Pollavicini declared that he placed the greatest confidence in his Majesly's Ministers ; he deeply lamented the events which had lately taken place at Genoa, and he asked whether it would not be convenient to separate the administration of the police from that of the general affairs of the home department. Signor Ratazzi, the Minister of the Interior, rose and said : " I thank the honourable se na t or f or h av i ng a ff or d e d me the opportunity of giving some exp l anat i ons to the house and to the county about the late deplorable events which have taken mace at Genoa. I declare that on the 18th of May last I warned the Intendente of Genoa to be upon his guard, because the incorrigible Mazzinian sect were contemplating some fresh attacks on the public peace. In the first days of June last I got from the French police the advice that on the 9th ef that month a revolution w nl i break out at Genoa, and in consequence of that advice I repeated my warning to the Intendente of Genoa. My honourable colleague the Minister of War did the same towards the general commander of the military division of Genoa. These warnings were again repeated on the 27th of the same month, and I have before me the answer of the Intendente, of the date of June 28, in which he assured me that the authorities were on their guard, and that measures of precaution had been taken in order to Prevent any disturbance ; and so it happened, because it cannot be said that an insurrectionary movement took Place at Genoa. On the night of 29th of June the troops, under the direction of the civil authorities, efft , eted a num ber of arrests, and seized a quantity of arms and arninuei tion ; but no outbreak actually took place ; that is to say, the authorities succeeded in preventing the intended insurrection. The only positively seditious act perpe trated was the attack on the fort of Diarnant , , which in reality was an cceurrence of little importance. I meet ad-I that fear as usual has greatly exaegerated the real state of the case. For instance, it has been said that the whole of the town of Genoa was undermined, Whilst the fact is that there were preparations for mining only, and the powder at hand tor the purpose. It has also been stated that the number of muskets seized amounted to eeveral thousands, whil-t the fact is that their total number does not exe,ed COO. I have "thing more to add, but to assure the Senate that the judicial inquiry is actively progressing, and that the authors of this !eolith and criminal attempt will be pro secuted with all the severity of the law. The Govern ment of the King, feeling confidence in the power of the and assured of the support of the Parliament and of the country, is convinced that it pommies ouch a strength as wll suffice to defy all his enemies without having reourse to extraordinary power , ." General La Mermora, Minister of War, rose and said : " I have a few moments ago returned from Spezia, where I have been to meet the gallant Admiral L. ons, and on my way I stopped at Genoa. I am g!ad to declare that the alarm caused by the late events has completely sul:sided, and that the inha bitants of that illustrious city have no feelings but of di , gu,t towards the authors of the la‘e insane att'mpt, which I don't know whether to call stupid or infamous. I heve only a few words to add tr what has been said by my colleague M. Ratazzi. The exression, 'Fort of Diarnante,' is not correct. The Diatnante' is by no means a fort, it is only an advanced post (co; po di guardiu), which is guarded by a de !achir,ent of a dozen colliers, commanded by a sergeat. The ' guardarme ' (chat is to say the man who Lves there in charge of the building) is now under t•ial, because it has become known that in the course of th- 29 ,- .1 June he introduced sonic civilians into the post, and drank wine with them, so that the conspirators, taking advantage of this circum,ta , ,ce, were able to get, into the post at n'g! - .t to the number of ,40 or 50." After these declarations the subject dropped, and the Senate resumed the order of the d;.y. 3al lat.; of lsti )od. itude The e to ) h o and :013 se -en Op r for- V pre" it bi . • et up es 3 of old ere averrh r .

(PY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.) LIVERPOOL, TUESDAY MORNING. The Royal mail screw steamship Indian has ar rived from Quebec, with dales to the 4th inst. She brings no si.ecie. qhe loss of life by the burning of the Mcntrcal absorbed the attention of all patties. Up t 3 the 4th 200 bodies had been recovered. White pine, 65 t) 70 feet average, was in good demand, and good rafts of these averages found ready buyers at irem Bd. to 9d. per foot. Smaller timber more abundant, but much of it poor and knotty. In red pine little doing. Oak sold high, but the demand was not great. In elm little doing. Tamarac slightly improved. Staves, bo+h standard and puncheon, very scarce, and a good demand ex pected fur the greater part cf the month. Deals in request, especially floated. Fre . ghts dull. Deals to London 41., 28s. to Liverpool, and 295. to the C►yde. In the New York money market on the 2d there wes a Brood demand, and rates were firm at 6 to 7 per emir. (m , stly the latter on call).

CITY, Two o'CLocK. Letters from Liverpool state that the Cotton Market yeAerday clos'Al. with a very animated ap pearaucE., and at extreme prices for all descrip tions. The saes amounted to 12,000 bales, 1,000 of which were taken by the speculators. The Railway Shan Market manifested a very flat ap pearance, and prices were at a slight decline. The advices from Paris state that the satisfactory weather and the encouraging harvest prospects are producing a gradual decline in the prices of grain. A sack of flour which at the end of Juue was worth 74f. to 75f. per hectolitre declinPd on Wednesday to 66f. 50c., and was offered on Saturth , y last at 64f. At the same time wheat has receded 2 to 3 francs per hectolitre in all the departments, and it ii rather surprising that this movemet*las not exercised any I eneficial influence the Funds, which continue flat. _ _ At the annual meeting of the Peel River Land and Mineral Company held this day a dividend of is. per share was recommended out of the (is timated profits on the year's transactions. The amount of profit was 8,9841. The progress of the company was more satisfactory, but there was a falling off in the gold licence'. The report was being discussed at the time of our dispatch being sent off. _ _ • The half yearly meeting of the St. Katherine's Dock Company has also been held, to-day, at which a report was presented showing the net profits in the c .mpany's business for the half-year to be 47,8751. A dividend of 21 per cent. for the half year was declared. The report was adopted. The half-yearly meeting of the Bank of New South Wales was held at Sydney on the 22d April last. The report of the directors was of the usual favourable character. The nett profits for the half year amounted to 62,8131. Gs. 10d., which, with the amount left over from the profits of the pre vious half-year, made the sum for distribution 64,4761. 10s. Od. Of this sum 50,0001. was applied as dividend (at tke ra' e of 20 per cent. per annum), 13,0531. 4s. Bd. to increase reserve fund, and 1,423/. Gs. ld. carried over to next account. The reserve fund had, by the addition named, and 1,9461. 15s. 4d. recovered from bad debts pre viously written off, reached the sum of 140,0001. The report was unanimously a , lopted, and the power of opening fresh branches where deemed ex pedient was left in the hands of the directors. Tne Indian news reports an advance in the ex change at Calcutta and Bombay. This is likely tl lead to large remittances of silver from th's side. In China, however, the rates have declined, so that the total shipments will probably be smaller than of late. The dollars brought by the last West India steamer have boen sold at 602. The Money Market is comparatively easy, and the demand is still very quiet. An opinion ap pears to prevail that the rates will further de cline, and hence, thoFe engaged in business merely supply themselves with the means they immediately require. The payment of the divi.lends has afforded much relief, and the continued influx of gold promotes confidence. It is iprEstuned that the Bank rate will soon be lowered to a more reasonable point than 6 per cent., as the lowest charge out of doors is now 5i per cent., with a declining tendency. On the Stock Exchange money is offered at 5 to 52 percent., and the terms charged for " carrying over" in the Share Market are ccnsidered moderate. The Funds continue languid, and the transactions are exceedingly limited. Since the violent move ment iu prices on Saturday the variation has not been important, but on the whole the tendency has not boon unfavourable. The particulars of the Indian revolt published this morning are not consi dered assuring, and the explanations in Parliament are scarcely deemed so satisfactory as anticipated. The English Stock market is therefore fiat. Con sols for transfer have been 91 i 7 to 92, for the account 92 j. Tl.e New Three per Cents. are 92l Reduced Three per Cents. 92 1, and Long Aunui ies 2.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner Fane.) IN BE G. DE STIRLING-OUTLAWRY. This bankrupt had carried on business as a miller, &e., of Ormesby, Norfolk, and to-day was appointed for his last examination. No accounts however had been filed, nor did the bankrupt appear to surrender, and he will therefore be outlawed in due form at the firing of the Court. From evidence given on the last occasion it appears that oa one of the creditors crdlirg at the bankrupt's, be was coolly told by his wife, that the bankrupt had got some money and had gone to Ame• rica, and she knew nothing about him. The debts proved amount to about 8001., and the property at present secured by Mr. Johnstone, the MEN. senger of Mr. Holroyd's Court is estimated at about 2001. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. (This Day.) MARLBOItOIIII-STREET. CHARGE OF RINGING DOOR-BELLS IN PANTON-STREET. Tbis day two young men, who gave the names of John Thomas and James Williams, and who were fashionably dressed, were charged before Mr. Beadon with ringing the door bells of the house of Mr, M. W. Lenthall, tailor, 5, Panton street. The complainant stated that about half-past 6 o'clock that morning he was alarmed by bearing some of the door bilis ringing. Thinking the house was on fire, he got up hastily and went down stairs. On opening the etreet door he found the prisoners at the door. They were intoxicated, and had a bunch of rotten flowers and water creases in ther hands. He asked them what they wanted, when one of them offered him a bunch of flowers, and another some water creases. Ho refused to accept either, upon which Williams observed that if he would not take a bunch of rotten flowers, that he was sure he was not fond of poetry. Jr. Beadon—How often were the bells rung ? Complainant— Three times, sir. One of the prisoners was bld enough to go for a policeman. A policeman came, who eventually, upon my representation, took the prisoners to the station house. Mr. Lewis, who attended for the prisoners, asked the complainant if there were not more persons at the door 1 Complainant replied that there were, and tbat. he re sided next door to a house of no very great repute. Mr. Lewis—Yes ; that is the case. v There were other young men there, who went to that house. The pri soners deny that they rang the bells of complainant's house. The pri=oners were fined SP, eacb, the pcnalty for being drunk. The fines were paid. LLOYD'S SHIPPING.—(This Day.) LONDON, July 14.—Wind this day at noon, S.; plea sant breeze, and sultry weather.

After all the boasting about Cock•a-doodle•doo and Greenfinch, people were much di , appointed by the manner in which those horses " performed" last week at Newmarket. To extenuate the Grey's inglorious exhibition several causes have been alleged, some to the effect flat he was "got at," and others that he was sent to the post unprepared. The horse's want of con dition may be accepted as an excuse for his defeat, but still I am disinclined to believe that John Scott would have been so confident of success if the horse were reelly unfit.,,Cock-a-doodle-dog was the first beaten in the race, but from the spirit which he was subsequently backed for the Derby, it is evident that some people do not believe that he figured in his true colours at :Newmarket. Certain it is, that there was something amiss with him, for it is said that the day after the race he refused his corn and was not able to quit his stable. The youngsters that figured for the Caest~rfi:•ll were all heads and tails at the finish, and indeed t timing the two year olds that ran at Newmarket altogether, I do ❑ot think "a flyer" could be picked from them. The letter which Lord Derby has addressed to the Jockey Club has made a deep impression. Every genuine racing man admires its temperate tone and respects the feslings which dictated it. The time has arrived when the turf must be cleared of the abuses which are destroy ing it, and it is to be hoped that the Jockey Club will enrnestly conimence a work which they have too long delayed. The members of the club ought to be aware that they can exercise a most beneScial influence over the people's pastime ; but they seem to think that their self-fought position entailed upon them no other trouble and responsibility than those of making a trip to New market, hurrying through some dull routine business, and occasionally discussing impracticable resolutions.. The present stewsrds of the Jockey Club are popular men, and much may be hoped from their social influence and example. The Times has used the letter of Lord Derby as a peg on which to hang some crude notions re specting the condition of the ring and the mod us operandi of betting men. In an article, remarkable only for recklessness of assertion and an ignorance of the subjec►, the Times attempts to confound the blackleg and needy adventurer with the true supporters of the turf. All classes and conditions of racing men are tarred with the same brush in Printing house-square, the potent, grave, and reverend seignors of which affect to believe that a betting man must be a rogue, and that because a few scamps have adopted horse-racing as a ready means of duping the public, the followers of the sport live by a systematic course of plunder. Never was so unreserved an application of the proverb of he that lies down with dogs will get up with fleas. The distinction between the Stock Exchange and Tattersalls is not very wide, and it would be some. what difficult to mark the difference between the specu lator for a " rise" or " fall," and the speculator on horse racing. Recent disclosures have shown that the morality of the commercial world is not greatly superior to the morality of the sporting world ; end, indeed, if the accounts were properly reckoned the balance would, after all, be in favour of the turf. Le sport has too much vitality at present to be destroyed by the malignant attacks which have been made on it. The Liverpool Meeting will be celebrated to-morrow and the two following days, and already have metropoli• tAn turfites taken their departure to assist at the gather ing. The racing will be both abundant and interesting, and a continuance of fine weather will be an additional inducement for pleasure-folk from the surrounding vil lages and towns to flock to the coarse. The programme contains its usual number of items, and I trust that the untiring exertions which Mr. Top ham has made to sustain the popularity of the gathering will be duly appreciated by racing men. For the Mer sey Stakes the penalised animals are Polly Peachnm, Terrific, and Yurk, and. I shall expect to see Puny and York occupy the first and second positions. The Derby and Oaks victress, Blink Bonny, will, it is reported, show for the Lancashire Oaks, and she may frighten all her opponents trom the field. For the Ben tinck Testi monial Handicap I shall select Mongrel, Wardormarske, and Sir Humphrey. For the Nursery Plate, Knockburn and Broadlands are my "fancy." Flacrow and Princess Royal shall do battle for me for the Sweepstakes of 15 EOM From the spirit with wh'c'i Itagerthorpe has been backed for the Liverpool Cup, we may infer that he has quite recovered from the effects of the sore hocks which he had at Stockbridge. If the horse be in form, his success may bo deemed as great a certainty as the glorious uncertainty of the turf will admit. Bashi-B4a)uk has ere now given proof of his staying qualities and his gameness ; and although he will un doubtedly run forward, yet I fancy that he will succumb to both Nesvton.le-Willows and Moose. Could I hare calculated upon a start, however, I should have selected Lima alone of all the three-yr•olds to represent my in. terest. As it is, I must follow the talent, and stand by ROGERTHORPE AND GRET PYRRHUS The Licensed Victuallers' Plate presents a formidable list of nominations. Casting my eye down the list, my attention is attracted by the names of El!emir°, Vander. meulin, Lord Ntlson, Peeping Tom, and Bel E-peranza. Should Blink Bonny enter the lists for tile Liverpool St. Leger, with her 9-lb penalty, some interest would be created. She will be opposed by Adamav, who, if he has of late done any work, will, I fancy, be the winner. July 14. A FRESH MAN. PORTO RICO. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SIR,—In reply to your note I beg to inform you that Porto Rico was scratched for his Stockbridge engage ments at 4 a.m., on the 24th June, 1857. I am, Sir, your inost obedient servant, • JOHN DAY, Clerk of the Course. Danebury, July 13. 1117FF'S GUIDE TO THE TURF.—The July Supplement of this well-known publication has been jest published by Messrs. Piper and Stephenson. It has been compiled with extraordinary care, and contains a mass of informa tion of the utmost utility to racing men. TATTERSALL'S-MONDAY. ---- --- Business was resumed somewhat more actively than usual. Rogerthorpe was in steady demand for the Liverpool Cup, and his closing price showed an improvement on his " City quotation ; 5 to 1, 9 to 2, 4 to 1, and finally 100 to 30, were booked about him. Bashi-Bazouk was second favourite. Moose and Gilliver—stable companions—were backed for money, the former,. however, having the larger .umber of supporters. Grey Pyrrhus was also in request at 12 and 10 to 1. Prizefighter was friendless. Tho odds quoted against Martinet for the Good wood Stakes were booked to 501. Gunboat was the only animal in demand for this event, and 20 to 1 was with difficuly obtainable about him at the close. For the Goodwood Cup 9to 1 to 1001. was taken about the " French horse" Florin, and 1,800 to 200 about Gemma di Vero'. The only noteworthy transactions on the St. Leger were 5 t 3 2 to 100/. agst Blink Bonny, and 300 to 100 agst If,moramus. CLOSING PRICES.

Several petitions were presented by Mr. Gladstone and other hon. members against the Marriage an 1 Divorce Big ; against the Paper Duty ; against the proposed Toil on Chelsea new Bridge. GRAND JURIES (METROPOLITAN POLICE DISTRICT) BILL. The hou.:e went into committee on this bill. Mr. BOWYER moved that the chairman do leave the chair. He made the motion because the bill proposed to abrogate a part of the British constitution. Any defects in the working of thepresent system should be remedied and not destroyed, as was proposed by this hill. He was surprised to find a bill of this kind emanating from the quarter it had, and he expressed an opinion that the hon. and learned gentleman now regretted what he had dove. Of all places London was the last where the provisions of such a bill should be applied, frcen the pro bability of political eases arising iuwbich the intervention of juries was valuable with reference to the rightsaud liberties of the people. The hon. and learned gentleman referred to Blackstone, relative to juries, and said that if he were alive, and in that house, there is very little doubt what course he would take with reference to this Li I. This inconvenience, which individuals suffered in serving on grand juries, or in having to go before them, ought not to be considered in a case of this kind, cud made an excuse for introducing the thin edge of tie wedge (if not the thick end also) for the destruc tion of this valuable institution. The hon, and learned gentleman then referred to rainy of tho provisions of the bill, and said that much inconvenience would arise under it as at present existed, and be contended that the present grand jury system could be improved so as to meet the requirements of the age. He considered it was import ant, especially in London, that the grand jury system should be continued, becanse it familiarised and identi fied the trading classes with the administration of the criminal law of country, and it also protected the liberties of the subject, especially in political charges. He considered the bill fraught with so much danger to society and the constitution of the country, that he could not consent to its proc , eding further this session. Sir F. THESIGER comp'aine - d of the course now taken, because when he introduced the bill on a fresh explanation of its details no objections were rsised to it. It also passed a ?econd reading without opposition to its principle, and the first time ha received any intimation of oppositio❑ to its details was on the night when the committee was named. The hon. and learned gentle man stated that be did not regret the introduction of the bill, and he assured the house that he had intro duced it from a belief that the • nge he proposed was necessary. Evidence of the greatest im portance was given on the subject before the Statute Law Commission, and before a c immittee of that house, relative to the abolition of grand juries in the metro polit?:n police district, and it was on the recommenda tion of the commission and the committee that he bad based this measure, which hal received the sanction of the Government. The bon. and learned gentleman then entered into the constitution of grand juries, and the necessity that now existed for their aboliton, in the course of which be used the same arguments he did on the introduction of the bll. [LEFTSPEAKING.] ELECTION COMMITTEES.—(This Day.) LA.NIBETII. The committee re-assembled this morning at 12 o'clock. Mr. Trewman, who was under examination yesterday afternoon for a short time was re-called and examined by Mr. Edwin James, Q.C., in reference to pays cuts made at various public houses where Mr. Roupell's committees and sub-committees assembled. In those rooms with which he was connected there were unpaid committee men and paid canvassers. The central committee knew of no paid chairmen, but some of the chairmen of the Eub.committees might have acted as canvassers and been paid for their services. When euch cAses came under the notice of the central committee, their names were struck off the list. In his cross-examination by Mr. Phinn, the witness stated that he had never paid anything or promised any thing for a vote during the election. It was at his sug gestion that the arrangements were made f )r dividing the borough into districts, so that there might be a more regular and systematic canvas of the electors, a large majority of wham were unpolled at previous elections. The committees were presided over by gentlemen of in - fluence in the borough, and no man was paid as a chairman. A number of persons who acted as agents were exa• mined, and gate similar testimony to that already pub lished. BATII.
