CITY, Two o'CLocK. The Liverpool Cotton Market y esterday closed With a firm appeatanc• - , at the full rates current last week. The sales were 6,000 bales. The Rail- W ay Share Market was inanimate, and prices were rather lower. A. favourable return has been issued from the Bank of England for the week ending the 6th inst., a large increase in the bullion and reserve of notes b eiritt exhibited. The former, it was generally a nticipated, would show some augmentation, owing t° the influx of gold and the sales made to the a uthorities ; and the next statement will pro bably report a further material accession of Wealth. It is satisfactory to ob:=erve the gra dual accumulation of " n otes unemplo:, eel," and if the improvement continues the Directors may 8 ? 01 1 be enabled to modify their discount r,?gula tl6rlg, but there is still an unfavourable movement 111 the " other securities," which now reach more th an nineteen millions sterling. As a set off against ul ls) however, it may be remarked that the public aa d private deposits have received an important addition. The revenue collections are being made W ith vigour, and the total now standing tj the credit of the Government exc eds seven millions. :the principal items, and the changes they present a re as subjoined : Active Circulation Decrease Bullio n Increase Increase . £18,785.980 . 291,495 10,290.649 258,247 3,321,818 Increasel9,46l 7 Public Deposits . ,036,869 Increase Other Deposits „ Increase oeven-Day and other Bills 664.467 Decrease government Securities Other Securities Increase 5 Notes un e mployed Increase Rest. The official return of the ex p ort of bullion from the pert of London for the week ending Thursday lad is as follows : Gold Coin ... Hamburg ... 21,500 On. and 6,0001. ft ft ... Belgium ... 130 Ozs. Bare ... Boulogne ... 34,000 Ov. silver Coin... Belgium ... 800 Oz 4. „ „ Hamburg ... 1,200 Oz=. There is a good demand for money at fullyprevi °ha rates, but there appears to be an absence of Pressure. 4 - special meeting of the Atlantic T ele g ra p h company l took place to-day. W. Brow n, in the chair. It was stated by Mr. Fiesh 'eld) the solicitor, that the o b jez t of the bill was t 0 carry out the undertaking on new terms, 111 , 10, ing the locale of business in London instead of teewhere. The chairman said the G o v ernment ad made this a sine qua non. It was not desira aole that Government interference should take Place in private companies, but for political pur poses it was deemed requisite by the Govern- I ntuit that they should, in this case, have such Tower, or they would give their support to a nother company. It appeared that the Govern !lent would subsidize to the exteLt of 14,0001. 4 Year, and that a concession would be given for 25 Years, the capital being 350,0001. Some °ppd.. Pition was made as to a few of the clauses by Mr. I rieffatt, M.P., and others, but the bill was t / entually carried, the amendment o f Mr. Dixon a ving been withdrawn by him. The market for public st )cks has been very dull, a nd scarcely any change has occurre d in p rices. ~,, Bank return although favourable has had no effect upon the quotations, and speculation is very quiet. Consols have been 93i k ex-dividend, and t he last official price is 931. For the opening they a te 9 3k I.

On her voyage round she was pat naler canvas to see the effect on the propeller, and after au bout's trial it was proved to the satisfaction of the owners and the com manding officer that it did not afftct her an eighth of a knot an hour. The fact is of value to the public, and to the government in particular, on a:Toilet of the enor mous expense saved by the brass frame work, which is a matter of necessity at the present moment to lower and heist the screw, and this at an average cost to each of her Majesty's ships of war of 15,001.

THE FIRE AT PICKFORD'B.-PROFESSOR AIV I)ItRSON. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SIIN. Sia,—Might I ask the favour of a few lines of space to contradict a report which is going the round of the press, and is likely to do me very considerable iljury. It is• ; to the effect that all my paraphernalia in its transit,from Manchester was destroyed in the fire at Camden on Tuesday night. Most fortunately for me the report is utterly untrue, and must have arisen among those of my friends who seem anxious to crown me as the Fire King. The luggage trucks arrived a few hours after the fire broke out, otherwise that which is now an amusing fiction would have been to me a sad reality. Every article of my new fittings, every new piece of apparatus, and every new trick which I have prepared, will be duly prosincod at the Standard Theatre on Monday ntxt.—l am, Sir, your obedient servant, JOHN HENRY ANDERSON, Wmard of the North.

On the night following the trial a rroob attacked the gaol where the negroes were. A deiverate onslaught was made, the prison fence was broken,. and the large crowd made to the door ; they were resisted. but rushing to the artillery building, they got a cam - ion, loaded it, and pointed it against the gaol door. trnder these circum stances the officials in charge found tOtemselves forced to the painful measure of delivering up the negroes. Tbree of the prisoners being deity ered up, a razor was given to the fourth in the `gaol (Jack, the property of Mr. Samuels, of Buliit county), and ie cut his throat, severing the Jul ;ular vein and windpipe, and producing instant . death. The wound Wai of the most horrible character, and a more ghastly spectacle was scarcely ever witnessed than the dead body when it was brought to the yz.v . d, and exposed to the view of the crowd. Ropes were oixtained and the Hoc other negroes marched off to the Court Ho se-square. At the west-end, George, the slave of Mr. iiamuels, was hanged upon a tree, amid the - hooting and .execrations of the multitude. The other two were then marcihed through the square, and near Fifth-street wereldienise executed. One of them, the slave of Mr. Brown, , osotested his innocence, and pleaded piteously to be relit ased. His agony of mind and sufferings were very in tynse. Mr. Pendleton's Bill, the one who was the State 's evidence in the case, was the last one executed. Fires were kindled under the suspended bodies, but the y were not consumed. Large number s of persons lingers d about the scene of this.awful tragedy until a late hour. The rioters having wreaked thei r ven g eance upen the , W i c tiuw, ap peared more-awe - st ricken than exultant. 100 H 111. 1031 41 31 41 2j 101 100 j 43i i I St. 100 10 83 St. 54t 20 50 St. 74 8p 8p LOI 901 1 90/ 218 2$ 441 5 691 70 I si Pm i 69 70 IMPERIAL PAR LIAMENT. lIOUSE OF LORDS.—(YEsTERDAY.) The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the wool sack at 5 o'clock. The Duke of ARGYLL presented a petition for fur ther restrictions on the liquor traffic. The Duke of NEWCASTLE presented a petition from .Nottingliam against the Sale of Poisons Bill. The petition was referred to the select committee now t-ittin , z on the subject. THE STATE APARTMENTS. Lord RAVENSWOItTII drew the attention of their brdshipi to the extremely inconvenient arrangements to which ladies attending her Majesty's Drawing-room at St. James's Palace were subj:cted. He begged to ask the noble lord the President of the Council whether her Majesty's Gdvernin .nt had given any directions tewarde remedying the inconvenience ? Earl GRANVILLE said the Commi&sioner of Public Works had given t'irctions for the preparation of plans for giving better accommodation. THIRD REIDINGS. On the motion of Lord REDESDALE the following bills were severally read a third tune and passed : Ley's Divorce, Chepstow Gal, and Reversionary In terest Society. PRINCESS ROYAL'S ANNUITY BILL. This bil+ passed through committee. THE CASE OF MR. STUART. Lord CLEMENTS nickel her Majesty's Minis ters why the pr •te , .ition of the polies was to be removed from David Stuart in the county of Leitrim, and why the Government requ;red him to emigrate or otherwise to provide for his per, , onal safety, and to what extent the prosecution of Protestants was to be permitted? The noble lord then proceeded to impute partiality to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland in granting greater protection to Roman Catholics than Protestants. Lord GRANVILLE said the universal esteem in which the noble lord, the Lord-Lieutenant of Inland, was held was the best answer he could give to the observations of the noble lord on his lordship. With respect to the question the noble lord had asked, the circumstances were as follows :- Two years ago Mr. Stuarts house was broken open, and agun taken away. There b-ing reason to suppose that an ill will against that gentleman existed the Government di rected that two policemen should reside with him. (Hear.) He bad given notice of his intention to emigrate, and directions were given, ordering the police to return to their quarters. Mr. Stuart, however, altered his plans and did not emigrate, and, notwith standing the expense, the Government had given direc ions for the police to return to that gentleman's house. There was nointention on the par., of the Govern ment to remove the protection given to Mr. Stuart. Viscount DLTNGANNON asserted that the Executive Government had displAyed a decided partisanship in favour of Roman Catholics, and denied evenhanded justice to the Protestants. Lord CLE NI EN CS said that if their lordships would grant him a committee he would prove the assertions he had made. . Earl GRANVILLE said if the noble I')rd moved the appointment id a select committee, and proved to the satisfaction of the house that the charges were net frivolous, he should have no objection to the appoint molt of such a committee. The sulject then dropped. TRANSPORTATION BILL. The Earl of HARROWBYthen moved that the house should go into committee on this bil , the object of which was to enable Government to comply with the wishes of the colony of Western Australia, and at the same time to obviate some of the evili at home to which the ticket of lis'av,-; systi-m had g iven rise. Lord CIAIPBELI4 objected to the bill as being vir tually a scheme to make transportation rather a reward for meritorious criminals than a punishment for the worst offenders. Lord GREY could not agreo with Lord Campbell in this opinion. He should support the bill on the simple ground that it retraced as far as possible tie erroneous step which the house took in 1852 and 1853, and enabled the Government in future to make use of transportation to as great an extent as was practicable to relieve the country from the presence of a class of persons who had become dangerous to the peaceable and well-disposed part of the community. Lord CARNARVON thought that the Government took too narrow a view of the question, and was con vinced that many other portions of the British empire might bo found as well suited for purposes of transporta tion as \Veaprn Australia. should be respected, and they should remember tnat it was pushing religious scruples too far that had caused the terrible schism in the Church of Scotland. H e hoped, therefore, that her Majesty's Government would reconsider their determination, and that in the meantime the noble earl would not press his amendment, but bring it up on the third reading, by which time be hoped that her Majesty's Government wovld have altered their minds. The Bishop of GLOUCESTER bore testimony to the number of clergymen in his diocese N:ho objected to so lemnise marriages under the circumstances contemplated by the noble earl's amendment. He feared that if they were coerced in this matter it would be the first step towards a separation between Church and State, and therefore felt bound to support the amendment. Lord STANLEY of ALDERLEY opposed the amendment, and put it to the house whether, if they gave the clergymen discretion in this matter, they would. not open a door to the plea of scruples of conscience in various other matters which were imposed by the la v of the country. He complained of this attempt in a thin house to reverse a former solemn decision of their lord ships. Viscount DU.NGANNON denied that the house was taken by surprise. The noble earl's amendment had been regularly placed on the papers. Earl NELSON repelled the charge of surprise, not having written to his most intimatelriends respectieg the clause. He regretted he could nut adopt the suggestion of the noble earl (Earl Grey) opposite, which was a 400 d one, if acccompanied by any promise from the Govern ment to reconsider their decision. As that promise had not been given he should feel bound to divide the h ,use. The LORD CHANCELLOR took h formal of i le' ion to the wording of the amendment, which he said w >uld not carry out the purpose intended. Lord DENMAN opposed the amendment, and the house divided, For the insertion of the words — Contents Non•contents Some verbal amendments were added, and one or two notices were given for the third reading, after which the report was agreed to. The Bishop of OXFORD gave notice of his intention to move the third reading of the bill " that day six months," should his noble friend's (Lord Redesdale's) amendment he negatived. Their lordships adjourned at 28 minutes past 9 o'clock. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—(YEsTExpAr.) The SLEAKER took the chair at four o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The Lorda amendments to the Invernea and Nairn Railway Bill wer3 considered, and ordered to be read third time. The Burslem and Tunstall Gas, and the Wycombe Railway Bills were read a third time. The Great Northern (capital) bill was further consi dered, and ordered to be read a third time. ELECTION PETITIONS. Lord DERBY thought the bill a very imperfect and unsatisfactory measure. It proceeded on no principle whatever, and left everything in a state of uncertainty. The house then went into committee, and the several clauses were agreed to. DIVORCE AND MATRIMONIAL CAUSES BILL. The report of the amendments to this bill was brought u Lord REDESDALE said he had given notice of cer. tain amendments, the object of which teas to enable those of her Majesty's subjects who from religious con victions (7,id not think themselves justified in asking for a divorce to obtain a judicial separation in cases of adul tery, and to authorise the court in such cases to punish the guilty parties. As the bill now stood the court had not the power, unless a divorce was prayed for. He shoult not, however, press the amendment on that occasion. The LORD CHANCELLOR said he had some amend ments to propose. After clause 6he proposed to insert a clause enabling the c urt to pronounce a divorce for a judicial separation in all cases where a divorce a mensal et thoro might now he granted. By the 17th clause a I judicial separation might be decreed after desertion for two years. It might however happen that the absent party would return, and be in a position to show that the desertion was involuntary on his part—that he had been imprisoned or cast on a desolate island. To meet this case, he proposed to insert a clause authorising the court to reverse the decree of dseiertion when it was shown that it bad been obtained in the absence of the party, and that there was reas amble ground for the de sertion. It might sometimes happen that parties who had been separated would come together again ; in such case. it was important to preserve the right of third part:e who had deslt with the wife as a femme sole. He there fore proposed that a book ehould he kept in the court, in which parties should enter the fact of their return t cohabitation, and until that was done the creditors should retain all their rights against the wife. On chose 49, Earl NELSON proposed an amendment to the effect that the rensarriage of the parties after a divorce should be confined to a civil contract. By this bill they were proposing to repeal an ecclesiastical statute which at least professed to be based on scripture. Now, as the advocates of the bill put the scriptural argument aside, it was but common justice that they should not seek for ecclesiastical means to carry it out. They could not ex pect that those clergymen who believd that these mar riages were contrary to the law of God would perform them. (Hear, hear.) The LORD CHANCELLOR hoped the house would not accede to the amendment of the noble lord, which proposed that marriages should take place before the registrar. The law having said that these persons were no longer man and wife, he could not understand the scruples of those clergymen who said that the law en acted what was unlawful, and therefore they would not conform to it. The Bishop of ST. DAVIDS said that if the ques tion were simply argued with regard to the law of the church, he should feel great difficulty in saying that there could be a law of the church which was repugnant to the law of the land. But with regard to the law of God, it was impossible to override that, or that any law could affect religious scruples entertained on that ground. The avowed object and tendency of the measure was to multiply the cases in which these marriages would be contracted, and he thought they were bound to respect the religious scruples of those clergymen who considered such marriages contrary to God's law. The Duke of ARGYLL said that the proposed amend ment would prohibit any clergyman, whether he had scruples or no', from celebrating these marriages. ("No.") If that was not the 'effect of the amendineut he was much mistaken. Tee amendment proposed to omit the words " marry again," for the purpose of in sorting " marry in the office of the registrar or any build ing registered under the Marriage Registration Act." Et seemed to him that the amend cent was a st-T to wards the separation of church and state. The Bishop of OXFORD said the noble duke had for gotten the effect of the act passed in the last session ot parliament, because that act met the question he had raised. The state of the law under that act and under this amendment would be this, that the marriage might take place in the office of the registrar ; but having taken place in the office of the registrar, the parties might have the services of a clergyman to superaid the religious form. (Hear, hear.) All persons therefore, who wished, might take advantage of this act for the purpose of being legally married at the office of the registrar, and they might to this superadd the reli gious ceremony, on the condition of obtaining the ser vices of a clergyman who felt no religious seruplesesin_ performing it. But he thought it was only wise,.B ! t s of manlike, politic, and in accordanc e with thet prsineciclielrg religions liberty, to respect the scruples o o f h men who thought these remarriages to be s inful. He received a letter that day from a clergyman who lbelong ed to what was called the evangelica portion church, and who said that he and o th e rs of the clergy h a d strong objections t o the celebration of these mar riages. To adop t the amendment of the noble earl would on ly be to follow in titrack of the act of last session. Ho hoped, therefore:their lordships would adopt the amendment. (Hear.) Lord REDESDALE supported the amendment. They permitted the Quakers to make an affirmation because they entertained religious scruples to the taking of an oath, and the scruples of the clergy against the perform ance of these marriages were entitled to equal respect. (Hear, hear.) He confessed that if he were a clergyman be should object, with his views as to the indissolubility of the marriage tie, to marry these divorced parties. Earl GR ANVILLE said he had no expectation, as at present advised, that the Government would be able to acquiesce in this amendment. Tho noble earl was willing that the registrar should ratify the civil contract, while the clergyman was to he relieved from the religious cere mony, as being opposed to the law of God. Was the re gistrar, then, to violate the law of God, while the cler gy man upheld it ? After a short discussion, in the course of which the Bishops of CASHEL and LLANDAFF supported the amend ment. Earl GREY said that as the civil contract would be sufficient legal contract, and as many clergymen bad scruples in this matter, surely the house ought to PY some respect to those scruples. It was admitted that the law of the land was paratnount,but still religious scinplei The SPEAKER announced that the petition against the return of the hon. member for Athlone was objsc tionable, and the order for its discharge was read i+nd agteed to. PIMLICO IMPROVEMENT BILL. Mr. SMItH, the examiner of petitions for private bills, reported that the standing orders relative to the Pimlico Improvement Bill had been complied with. MARGATE WATER BILL. On the motion of Mr. FOSTER, the bill was recom mitted. THE ITALIAN LEGION. ➢Zajor S. KNOX presented a petition from the mem bers of the late Italian Legion, complaining that the Go- vernment had broken faith with them. RAILWAY TRAFFIC ACT. Mr. GRIFFITH gave notice that he should bring in a bat to repeal the 17 and 18 Vic., chap. 31, commonly called the Railway Traffic Act. THE STEAM NAVY. Sir C. NAPIER, gl,ve notice that on the 7th July he should move for a retur❑ of the number of steam vessels in each harbour, the number of horse power, and whether high or pres-ure, and screw or paddle wheel, &e. Mr. LAURIE asked the Under Secretary for War, whether the regiments at and on their passage to the Mauritius had orders to proceed to China ; and whether the pay would be at the same rate as the regiments now quartered in India ; and, if not, why not ? He also re peated the question as to when the orders of the Medjidi will be i-sued. Sir J. RAMSDEN said the troops on their passage to the Mauritius were only in the usual course of reltef. The troops in China would onlf receive the usual pay paid in Hong Kong. The list of persons ertitled to the orders of the Medjidi would soon be published. REFORMATORY SCHOOLS. Sir EDWARD KERRISON asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether it was his intention to introduce amendments iu the Reformatory SchoGls Bill, to render more effectual the process of ob taining money from parents for the maintenance of their cbildren in reformatory schools? Sir G. GREY said be intended to give notice of a clause relative to payment to be introduced in the bill before the house. ELECTORS, &c. (METROPOLIS.) Mr. WILLIA 11 NVILLIAMS moved for . a return of the number of the electors in each of the Metropolitan boroughs and city of Westminster on the regi-ter of 1856, and the number of all houses rated to the relief of the poor, stating the number in each parish of the F aid boroughs and city, and the population thereof at the last census. Agreed to, HER MAJESTY'S DRAWING-ROOM. On the motion for the adjournment of the house until Monday, Mr. G. DUNDAS called the attention of the Govern ment to the inconvenience experienced by ladies attending her Majesty's drawing room at St. James's Palace, owing to the want of proper arrangements for their reception and departure. The faulty arrangements of which he complained bad been repeatedly brought before the public, and what should be a pleasing and cheerful duty was thus made a painful and distressing task. The hon. member contrasted the difference between the time of the Stuarts and the present age, remarking that what was ample in those days was now too small, and apartments then considered lofty and spa cious were now insignificant and mean, and he descanted in a most feeling manner on the sufferings of ladies who had to submit to crushinw„ and other inconveniences arising from want of space and better arrangements at her Majesty's Drawing Rooms. The hon. gentleman gave several illustrations frnm the suffering of that bril liant Court and assemblage of beauty, which no other nation in Europe could boast of, that took place at Her Majesty's Drawing room on Saturday last. Sir B. HALL rose, but was for some moments un able to obtain a hearing from the continued cries of "Bruce." The right hon. baronet said,—l have much pleasure in answering the appeal of my hon. friend. I believe that it is impossible to exaggerate the great in convenience experienced by ladies who attended the drawing•roorn on Saturday. (Cheers.) It must be recollected that the drawing•rooms are now held in the same apartmentc in which they were held many years ago, when there were only 100 or 200 assembled to pay their respects to the queen ; and it is perhaps known also that when these drawing-rooms were held the Queen was in the habit of going round the apartment, for which there was plenty of space, and noticing those whom she desired to honour. But instead of 100 or 200 persons, there are now upwards of 1,000 and some times 1,400 persons at many of the drawing-rooms, and although the dress of the ladies i❑ former times was large, yet I believe at the present moment they oc cupy very nearly the same space. (A. laugh.) It is therefore utterly impossible that any comfort shoul I be experienced by those who attend her Majesty's draw ing-rooms, and I am happy to inform the hon. gentle• man and the house that I have received instructions from the Government to prepare plans for the enlarge ment of the a ccirnrnod , tion of ST. James's Palace (loud cries of "No ! no !" "Oh I oh !") and I hope I shall be able to lay such plans upon the table at an early period. (alurnmrs.) Lord J. MANNERS asked if the Government in. tchtiel making the necessary alterations without coming to the house for a vote of money. (Hear, bear,) Sir B. HALL said the plans were not' yet ready, and that no money would be expended without first applying to the house. (Hear.) The subject then dropped and the motion for adjourn. meat was agreed to. SUPPLY. On the motion for the house going into committee of Supply on the Civil Service esruiinat!3s. Mr. COBBETT called the attention of t e house to the circumstan ces under which an order to build a works house was addressed by the Poor Law Board to the guardians of the Preston Union, Lanchashire. The grievance com plained of was of a purely local character. Mr. BOUYERIE, at some length, explained the course he bad taken in reference to the Preston Union, which he said was according to law, and the earns All bad been adopted in other similar cases. After some remarks from Sir G. PECHELL ' 3n what he called the illegal conduct of the Poor-law B)ard, in call. ing upon ar officio guardians who rarely attended the Union meetings, to sign a recoisition to the Poor-lave Board, praying for the erection of a new workhouse, against the wish of the elected guardians and the rates pay ere, Mr. H. DRUMMOND said he hoped the Poor Law Board would not be frightened at the complaints made against them, and he expressed an opinion that more power should be given them to interfere bet ween the ratepayers and the necessary wants of the .poor. The subject then dropped. EXPENDITURE IN ST. JAMES'S PARK. Sir F. BARING rose, pursuant to notice, to call the attention of the house to the exp enditure in St. James'm Park. He did not intend on this occasion to discuss the propriety of any vote contained in the estimates. Such re Course indeed, would be irre g ular ; it w ould have been his duty to do this, if at all, in committee. His object was to bring before the house a question which appeared to him of more importance than the actual money spent, he meant that relating to the privileges of the house and the course pursued by the Government. About a month. ago, finding that some expenditure was g oin g on in the parks not depending on any vote of Parliament, he mo ved for certain papers on the subj ec t. He did not at all complain of their not being forthcoming before, ha they had only been presented within a few days, and h was forced to bring the matter before the house now because the vote itself would be considered early in committee to-night. With regard to the facts of the case he apprehended there would be no great difficulty. Everybody knew that certain works bad been going on in Sc. James's Park ; that the lake, as it was called, had been cleaned cut, that the bed had been cemented and that considerable expense had been incurred.
