del° . to fl ' ° Ant J ibe of 103-6 lig Pr a. ;0 01 oral l f 443 c°,ho°:b; 0'; be MONEY MARKET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. CITY, Two o'CLocic. Accounts from Liverpool state that the Cotton Market yesterday closed firmly, and prices we re well maintained. The sales were estimated at 12,000 bales, 5,000 of which were taken for ex port and on speculation. The Railway Share Market closed without animation, at previous rates. The Bank of England return, made up for the Week ending the sth inst., is decidedly less satis factory than was anticipated, and the decline in the bullion, although small, when an increase was ex pected, has naturally caused some disappointment. This movement is to be attributed. to the remittances made to the agricultural districts, and to other dis bursements usual at this time of the year, but un less a large arrival from Australia soon takes place, it is very likely that a further reduction will ensu n . Another unfavourable feature is the addi tion to the Stock and other Securities, which in consequence of the payments of the 4th of the Month, it was thought would have diminished. It is evident that there has been considerable pressure for money ; but at the same time there is an in crease on the reserve of notes. The private deposits have declined, but this is partly explained by the large increase in the amount standing to the credit of the Government. The Rest has advanced to a point that will enable the Directors to pay to the proprietors of Bank Stock si, if not 6 per cent. The principal items, and the changes they present, are as subjoined : Active Circulation Decrease 77,335 Bullion Decrease Rest . 3,893,251 Increase Public Deposits Increase Other Deposits Decrease Seven-Day and other Dills 771,332 Decrease • •• 345,547 Government Securities Decrease Other Securities Increase Notes unemployed Increase 540,327 ... 6,064,570 64,730 The official return of the exports of precious metals from the port of London for the week end kg Thursday last is as follows _Gold Coin ...

Boulogne ... 13 , 000 „ Silver (Join Bonlogne ... 800 „ The demand for money continues active, and full rates are still charged for accommodation. Rather more firmness has been visible in the Market for English Securities to-day, notwith standing the Bank return, which is considered dis couraging. The speculators still wait patien'ly for •later advices from India, but there is au absence of those unfavourable rumours which are usually cir culated prior to the arrival of the overland mail. Consols have been 901 15 for money, and 902 for account. Exchequer Bills are still depressed at about 18. to 4s. discount. The Small ditto aro Gs. to 7s. discount. About half-a-dozen bargains have been reported ha. the Foreign market, and its tone bas been ra ther flatter. Turkish 6 per Cents. were 95! but they have since risen to 951 1. Spanish Pas sive Bonds are 51 ; Peruvian 41 per Cents., 79 79 i ; and Buenos Ayres, 85. Tho following are the nominal prices of Foreign Stocks ;—Grenada Deferred Bonds, 51 6/ ; Mexi can, 21 ; Peruvian 4i per Cents., 79 80 ; ditto 3 per Cents., 55 5G ; Portuguese 3 per Cents., 45 46 ; Russian 5 per Cents., 109 111 ; Ditto 4h per Cents., 97 99 ; Spanish 3 per Cents., 40 1 ; Ditto . New Deferred, 25i 1 ; Ditt3 Cer tificates, 5Z 61; Ditto Passive, 51 61. About an average amount of business has been transacted in the Railway Share Market this morn ing. The variations in prices, however, have not been important. Caledonian improved 10s. ;Gr at Northern, 10s. ; Great Western, 15s. ; and North Western, 10s. ; Edinburgh, Perth and Dundea de clined 11. ; Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincoln, ; Midland, 55.: North Eastern (Lee ls), ss. ; and North Eastern (York), ss. The Foreign lines were at quite nominal quotations, and the Colonial 'were inactive. Great Western of Canada and Great Indian Peninsula were at yesterday rates. Grand Trunklof Canada Debentures were dealt in at 831 to 84. Joint Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares vere dealt in to a very limited extent. City Bank, London and County Bank, and Union of Australia receded about 10s. ; Electric Telegraph, 10s. Peninsular and Oriental Steam, and Royal Mail Stea m , were rather firmer.

As much misconception appears to prevail re specting the approaching trial of the authorities of the fate Royal British Bank, it may bo conve nient, upon the pre, , ,ent occasion, to state the nature of the proceedings which have been taken against those persons. In the first place, it may be observed that until the conclusion of the exa minations in Bankruptcy the law offiCers of the, Crown were not in the slightest degree bound to notice any irregular or criminal act • which might have been committed hythe officers ofthe bank. The statute of the Queen (7 and 8 Vic., cap. 111) pro vides that the Commi,sionor in Bankruptcy shall in such cases report the result of the examination to the Board of Trade, and that the Board of Trade shall then, if it think proper, place all the papers before the Attorney-General, with a view to the institution of a criminal prosecution. Without wait ing for the processes ofreport and formal reference, the Attorney-General, upon reading the deposi tions—copies of which had been forwarded to him by Mr. Linklater. the able solicitor for the assignees —elected to proceed by way of criminal informa tion, and not by way of indictment. Two very obvious and sufficient reasons may be stated iu sup port of the course which the hon. and learned gentleman adopted. It is very well known that the mostcompetent lawyers entertain very serious doubts whether the statute or common law can reach the offences, with which the office rs of the bank have been charged. Many. nice and difficult points will have to be argued ; such, for instance, as these—whether the compulsory disclosure made in Bankruptcy does not exempt the persona who made it from criminal responsibility, or whether the false statements held out to the public of the affairs of the bank amount legally to the offence of conspiracy to defraud. The effect of filing an information in this case is that these grave and important questions will be tried, heard, and determined; not in the Central Criminal Court, at the preliminary investigation by a grand jury, but by the Court of Queen's Bench, that great tribunal which has the control of all the inferior common law courts ; and we may add that, if the par'ies desire it, there may be "a trial at bar," where, instead of the Lord Chief Justice alone, all the Judges of the,Court may take part in the trial and decision of the ca , e. Considering the amount of melancholy interest and attention which the failure of the Royal British Bank has occasioned—consi dering also, that the public mind must necess irily be prejudiced to some extent against persons wire, whether intentionally or unintentionally, have been the moans of ruining thousands, we say that the Attorney-General exercised not only a wise but a humane discretion when he determined to submit the decision of this most important case to a tribunal era dignified, and in every way so competent, as the Court of Queen's Bench We are inclined to think that the accused, if found guilty at all, will be con victed of the common law misdemeanour of having disobeyed th.) provisions of an Act of Pat liatnent 2 - for having male false returns of the amount of paid-up capital, and other fraudulent returns to the Board of Trade. But, in every point of view, the argument must be teo technical, and too legal in its nature, for the intellectual calibre of an ordinary retty jury, and theref r 3 we believs that the course of public justice will be largely advanced and pro moted by the delay which has taken place, and by the selection of the Court of Queen's Bench for the trial of this prosecution in place of the Central Cri minal Court. To show that no cfferts will be sppred to bring the accused to justice, we may mention that, on behalf of the prosecution, the following eminent counsel have been retained—the Attorney- General, the Solicitor-General, Sir Frederick Thesiger, Mr. Sergeant Ballantyne, Mr. Welby, and Mr. J. Brown• We understand, asl-o, that the ex-member for Tewkesbury, Mr. Humphrey Brown, will be deforeiod by ,Mr. Hugh Hill, and by Mr. Roxburgh, of the , Chancery bar. This statement may not be out of place at present, especially as the affairs of two other insolvent com panies—the Royal Surrey Gardens and the Eastern and Western Banking Corporetion—in connection with the management of which similar charges of profligate and criminal mismanagement have been made aro about to undergo judicial investigation. The authorities of the Royal British Bank may rest satisfied that they will have a fair, honest, and im partial trial ; and whatever the result may be— whether the existing law fails in reaching them, or whether it succee Is In visiting thorn with condign and deserved punishment—the) public may equally rest satisfied with the assurance that, under the Fraudulent Trusters' Act of last session, all posSible doubt as to the criminality of such practices has for the future been happily and completely removed.— Morning Post.

SUICIDE OP A GENTLEMAN . IN THE ClTY.—Last night, shortly before 10 o'clock, considerable excitement was created in consegnence of a most determined act of self destruction committed by a gentleman unknown, who shot himself through the head close to the railings of St. Philip's Church, London Hospital. The deceased was carried round to the frcnt of the hospital and placed in the surgery, where Mr. Francis Owen, the house sur geon, examined the deceased, and pronounced life ex- Una- The name of " Bell" was marked on the linen of the individual, who is about 35 years of age, rather robust and dark hair.

(BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.) LIVERPOOL, SATVRDAY. Captain Rogers, late of ship Martha and Jane, who was at the last assizes found guilty of the murder of one of his crew, named Andrew Rose, was publicly eysruted this day in front of the county gaol at Kirk dale. — Tile wife of the captain had her last interview with the culprit yesterday. She was accompanied by three of her children—the three oldest, two boys and a girl. Rogers was a native of Sunderland, and about 35 years of age. He was well known in Liverpool. At an early hour this morning the chaplain of the gaol, the Rev. Mr. Appleton, visited the wretched man and remained with him until the arrival of the hour Sxed for the execution. At a few minutes before 12 the governor, Mr. Gibbs, with the other officials, entered the cell, and the necessary preliminaries having been per- formed, the convict was conducted to the scaffold, where Calcraft, the London executioner, carried the sentence of the law into effect. There was an immense number of people present. The usual ceremonies having been gone through, the bolt was withdrawn and the unhappy man was launched into eternity. MR. HENLEY ON INDIA. In acknowledging the toast of " County Mem bers," at the meeting of the Thame Agricultural Society, on Thursday, the Right Hon. Mr. Henley said, speaking of the Indian revolt : " Whatever cause of complaint against our rule there may have been, it is impossible to suppose that there was any real connection between it and what has taken place. An army of 80,000 or 100,000 men, without notice, without grievance, without rhyme or reason, have turned against those whose salt they have eaten, whose pay they have taken, and in the meat treacherous man ner have not only murdered their officers, whom they were in duty bound to protect, but have either in their own persons wreaked, or have permitted others more wicked than themselves to wreak, the most horrid bar barities on women and children, before the very eyes of those most nearly connected with them, who were spared from butchery only long enough to see tho:e most dear to them ill-treated and butchered, and were then destroyed themselves. I believe that history does not furnish so terrible an example of what man is capable of be coming when once he bursts the bends of decency and forbearance. Now for all this there must be a day of reckoning. (Cheers.) They are English men, and English women, and English children who hare been thus used ; and it is not in the nature of English men to allow those dear to them to be treated in this manner without exacting a terrible account. (Cheers.) If the 20,000 or 40,000 men who have been sent out to set tnia matter straight are not sufficient, I feel sure there will not be wanting 100,000 men to rectify this terrible and grievous wrong. It, is a matter which sets aside all social questions for a time. We have a mighty wrong to redress. But we must not be impa tient in this matter. I believe our best chance of the mutiny being put down is that thele black vagabonds should continue to herd together in Da'. I call them vagabonds, for the first thing they, did was to throw open the gaols and let loose all the thieves and cut throats they could find. In all revolutions you find that if men are not honest the first thing they do is to let loose others who are worse than themselves. Honest men do not want such help as that. New if these fellows are all banded together in that city of Delhi, I hope they will stay there till October or Nivember, when our reinforcements will arrive in tke country, when they will be like rats in a trap, and a good account will be given of them. If by some mistake we were to march in at one side and these blackguards march out at the other, we shall have a great deal more trop` le to catch them. Therefore, instead of regretting that we have not yet accounts of this city being taken, I believe it will he better to let the thing come to a head. My experience in killing all sorts of vermin is that it is much better to get them into a corner than to hunt them all over the field. I be- _ . lievo our permanent chances of success would not have been so great if the city had been taken, and therefore there is nothing to be disappointed about, great as the crisis is. We have had greater struggles than this before now. It is not wise to say it is not a great evil, to be grappled with and overcome, but if I know anythirsz of the spirit of my countrymen, it is precisely when difficulties are to be overcome that you and out what Englishmen are. (Cheers) In prosperous times nobody would believe how Englishmen, when the hour of trial comes, will throw aside all differences, and, seeing what is to be done, will set shoulder to shoulder, and hang together to do it. (Cheers.) It is just 100 years ago since a few of our countrymen won this empire, and now, with our power so much increased all over the world, with the means of communication three times as rapid as they were, I will not believe but that we eaanot only con• quer again, but keep it with the ntm , at . noslible safety.

RAILWAY ACCIDENT AT SOUTHALL.—Yesterday, a long inquiry took place in the Board-room of St. George's Hospital, on the body of George Corderoy, aged 17, who was killed on Monday morning last, on a branch line of the Great Western Railway, between Southall and Brentford. George Cerderoy; the father. of the deceased, deposed that, between eight and nine o'clock on Monday morning last, witness and the de ceased were employed in removing earth in trucks. It was the duty of the deceased to uncouple them before the earth was thrown out, but witness had repeatedly cau'uoned him not to attempt this whilst the trucks were. in motion ; b ut he disobe y ed, and was thrOwn do? in,. when several of the trucks went over him. Both his thighs and legs were broken to pieces, and his right arm was nearly torn from his body, in additi3n to othe r severe injuries.

(Fro‘ra Adrentares among. the Mormons.) Great Salt Lake Valley is situatein that portion of the American contioent called Utah territory ; bounded' on the north by Oregon ; east by Ne braska, Kansas, and Now Mexico, from which it is separated by the Rocky Mountains ; south by New Mexico ; and west by California. The distance from here is :—Liverpool to New Orleans, 5,000 miles ; New Orleans tq St. Louis, 1,173 miles • S. Louis to Winter Quarters, 632 miles ; from miles; Quar ters to Salt- Letke City, 1,035 miles ; total, 7,840 mites. irtahrtrritoryis divided into fourteen coun ties. In length, from east to vresti,7it is 650 miles ; 'breadth fro:n north to south, 350 ; area, 225,000. square mi!es The populatiOn is not known, the saints having particular reasons to make it appear fabuloudy large. Some of the elders say it is 150,000, others, 160,000, white in the "Overland Route," published by F. D. Richards, it is stated at from 40,000 to 6U,000. The valley is 4,000 feet above the level of the sea, - surrounded by mountains, many of them . eternally covered with snow. There is no rain or water for irrigation pur poses, except what comes down from the mountain•, chiefly melted snow, which makes ' successful agriculture an impossibility. F,• its great - elevation and pure bracing atmosphere, we should imagine Salt Lake to be the healthiest region in the world; but quite the reverse is the case. S;ckmrs is very common and mortally great. This is supposed to be due, in a great measure to the abundance of alkaline salts, or salaratus, in the soil, which shows itself in a white efflorescence on the surface of the ground, covering whole acres with the appearance of a heavy white frost. Many of the streams are so strongly impregnated with it as to make it dangerous for cattle to drink from them. It not only affects health, but destroys vegetation, ruining whole fi4d.s of corn in a single night. Salt Lake Valley possesses one invaluable property to the Mormon leaders, and that is isolaiston. Herein lies the difficulty of persons returning when one) there. It is 1,000 miles from the States, and 600 f. om California, through a couutry of hos tile Indians, over unbridged rivers, precipitous rocks, and barren plains. One-half of the year the inhabitants of Utah are entirely bound up, for the only entrances—the kanyons (canons) and ravines are filled with snow, rendering egress and ingress alike impossible. The Government is entirely in the hands of the prophet and his family con nexions. No other governors can be tolerated among them unless protected by an armed force. The Hon. Parry E. Brocchus and others were sent by the Federal Government to take part in the go vernment of Utah, but they found their services unnecessary, themselves insulted, and their lives in danger. Polygamy is rampant, the authorities having from 10 to 120 wives each. Marriage is a very slight contract with them, as they may be di vurced at any time on payment of a small sum to the prophet, who makes it his business to encourage his own trade. There are girls of 15 in the valley who have been married three or four times. Many of the authorities marry their own sisters and daughters, the object being to keep the authority in their own fami lies or hands. By the time a female reaches 25 years she is an old woman. [n large harems, as in the ewe of Brigham, Parley, &c., the women work, the men are the overseers. It is found good policy to separate the women. One portion lives on one portion of the estate, and another portion else where. When the soldiers under Colonel Steptoe passed through the valley in 1855, over 100 of the Mormon women begged of them to take them to California. They took a large number, some of them the wives of the apostles, but many of them they had to leave behind on account of the scarcity of provisions. The elders made a dreadful noise about it. The post-office is in the hands of Brigham and his confederates, so that he knows the mind of every letter-writer there. He was heard to lastsa to the congregation at the beginning of . year, " There are manyofyon who have written complaining letters to Englan d. nearly ayu r Did you think I'd let th em go I know I have o n n d s. my ou l h nth se e .''

(From the Belgian National.) When we discussed the substance of the jucl g .. ment pronounced. by the Cour Imperials of Paris on this matter yesterday, we had not the decree itself before us. To-clay we have read this ,docu meat, which will ever stand as a monument of falsehood and iniquity. The grounds on which the condemnation of Ledru Rollin particularly is based, are without precedent in the annals of judicature throughout the whole civilised world. Never was so serious an accusation founded on such a mere pin point. One ne:d not be a lawyer to under stand and affirm so much. The charges are con tained in a few lines. We extract them from the decree, itself iniquitous from beginning to end, but which we neglect at present for the other portions : " Considering that Ledru Rollin, who had pre viously in 1853 caused 300 francs to be sent to a person named Kelsch, who has admitted having at that time entertained the project of attempting the life of the Emperor, was present in Mazzini's resi dence at the time when Bartolotti was first brought there, that he took part in the discussion which arose as to the times when the Emperor went out ; " That his presence at a conference essentially secret reveals the motive which led him there, and his participation in the conspiracy ; " That Ledru Rollin should have provided Bartolotti and Grilli with the funds for their journey from London to Paris." What ! You bring against an accused party a fact foreign to the trial revealed by an informer and a calumniator, and that without proof, without jus tification, without confirmation; a fact, too, on ac count of which no proceedings have been instituted against the accused, and you consider this fact as certain and proved ! Is not such a course the height of absurdity ? Is it to be enough for any individual to come and say, "Four years ago such and such an exile made a proposition to me to kill the Emperor," to enable you to quote that declara tion in a judgment as a charge against that exile, and make it an element of condemnation against him? But to continue : the decree dares to declare that Ledru Rollin took part in the discussion between two of his co-accused, although it appears from the declaration of the solitary informer who makes the charge, that he never said a word, not one single word, during the conversation ; and that he loft immediately ; and although, moreover, this dis cussion necessarily took place in Italian, Bertolotti not understanding a syllable of French, as was abundantly proved on the trial. But why argue the point 1 It was not even established that t!, e person referred to by the informer was Ledru Rol lin at all. He pronounced the name in four or five different ways. Is this enough ? Lot us go further, however. His presence at the conversation reveals, you say, his participation in the conspiracy. Strange and audacious conclusion. What, a third party happens to be in a Louse where two indivi duals—supposing for a moment the meeting to be proved—are plotting any ill deed whatsoever, this third party does not utter one word, does not join in the conversation, is ignorant of the matter at issue, and even of the language in which the discussion is carried on, and yet you con clude that he is a participator in the transaction. Truly, with such a system of interpretation and deduction, he most innocent citizen in France is not secure from one day to another against a sen tence of transportation. Is it not monstrous ? 9,125,000 that follows is not less so : 4,000,000 - " Considering," says the decree, " that Ledru Rollin should have provided," &c. Howl "Should have !" This is only an hypothesis and a presump- tion. You do not venture oven to affirm the You do not dare to say he did furnish the funds, but that he should have done so, and on that you condemn him. Such an expression which might be exi,lainable in an indictment is luirrible in a decree of condeinnation't which ought to rest F o!el y on precise, proved, and convicted facts. " Ledru Rollin should have furnished the funds." This phrase will remain as an eternal disgrace to the magistrates who have dared to employ it, and insert it in a decree. _ _ _ What is the result of all this 1 Nothing, - abso • lutely nothing. The court has merely and simply regiltei - ed these declarations and allegations of tho public ministers, and pronounced judgment—that is, it has condemned. Even before the judgment, after the proceedings of the public explanations of Ledru Rollin, we said. that the decision to follow would be a dead letter iu the eyes of every sincere and honest man. We repeat it more energetically still, after reading this decree, public feeling has already trampled it under fi:ot as an empty act of hatred, of vengeance, of falsehood, and of iniquity.
