Letters from Liverpool mention that the Cotton Market yesterday closed quietly, but firmly, and prices were fully support.?o. Tim sales were estimated at 7,000 bales, 1,000 for export and on speculation. The Railway Share Market closed firmly, at full rates. There is very little activity in the Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets, and owin; to the limited demand for the principal articles, including su;ar and coffee, it is expe&e - I that the public sales advertised during the week will not be cha racterised by much animation. Saltpe!re is firmer, and tallow has been dealt in at higher quota ions. The quantity of the latter article shipped from St. P,tersbura, in 1854, was 10,008 casks ; in 1855, 14,676 ;in 1856, 18,327 casks ; end in 1857, 10,024 casks ; of which 4,000 casks have arrived already.

Until later advices from the East arrive purchasers will be restricted although it is expected that upwards of a million sterling will be shipped by the next steamer. Very few orders are now being sent to the Continent for sup plies, and thus most of the gold by the Swiftsure has been sold to the Bank. A further sum of 91,0001. was deposited in the vaults yesterday, and future weekly returns are consequently expected to show some improvement in the general position of the institution. Later advices have been received from California by the steamer America, which report rather more favourably upon the state of trade at San Francisco. It is said that mining is being carried on more successfully than ever, and the attention of capital ists is still being directed to quartz crushing—a branch of business now more scientifically under stood. Money was easy, and the rates charged for the negociation of commercial bills were very moderate. There is a good demand for money in Lombard street, and full rates are current. The market for English Stocks is very much depressed in consequence of the growing uneasiness relative to India. No confirmation of the capture of Delhi having been received, the statement is now more generally doubted, and rumours of an intended loan on behalf of the East India Com pany assist to increase the feeling of apprehension regarding the prejudicial influence which this in surrection may yet exert upon our financial affairs. The Bears are consequently embold ened to increase their engagements, and the market droops. Consols have been 89:4- 901 for money, `and 901 -1 for the account. The New Three per Cents. are 901 4, the Reduced 90 , and Long Annuities 2 7-16. Exchequer Bills are ss. to ls. discount, the Bonds 98g and India Bonds under 1,0001. 275. dis. In the Foreign market the dealings have been chiefly confined to a few dealings in Turkish 6 per Cents. which have been weak at 931 941. The 6 per Cents. are 99a _ a . Spanish 3 per Cents. are 39g. Brazilian 5 per Cents. 102, and Russian 41 per Cents. 98i. South Eastern Shares have been heavy in conse quence of a decline in the traffic receipts. The following are the nominal prices of Foreign Stocks :—Grenada Deferred Bonds, 5/ ; Mexican, 221 ; Peruvian 41 per Cents. 81 82 ; Portuguese 3 per Cents., 44i 453 ; Russian 5 per Cants., 111 13 ; ditto 4,!- F per Cents., 97 99 ; Spanish 3 per Cents., 30 401 ; ditto Deferred, 25 25/ ; do. Certificates, 51- 6 ; ditto Passive, 5i 6. The transactions in the Railway Share Marke have exhibited a further downward tendency in prices, most of the leading lines having declined to 1 per cent. Great Western have receded 11., - North-Western 155., Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincoln 58., Midland 55., North-Eastern (Berwick) L. 1/. 55., North Eastern (Leeds) 55., and South . Eastern 15s. Oxford, Wolverhampton, and Wor cester improved 55., Great Northern B Stock ICs., and Eastern Counties 10s. The foreign and colonial lines are also at lower rates. Great Luxembourg declined 55., East 1 Indian 10s., Great Western of Canada 10s., and Grand Trunk of Canada about 31. The French lines were at nominal values. Mining shares ara very quiet. United Mexican realize 3i, and Tin Croft 4L Joint Stock Bauk shares are at steady quota tions. London and County declined about 10s., and Provincial of Ireland about ss. The Miscellaneous undertakings show no mate rial variation from previous values. Bit ITISH FUNDS.—CLOSING PRICES —THIS DAY. (From the Offiant List:) Business done. 3 per Cent.

The Earl and Countess of Wilton and Lady Katherine 3- Egerton, at the end of the month, leave Cowes, Isle of I Wight, for town, en route to Heaton Hall, near Man cheater, where the noble Earl and Countess purpose to receive a snccession of visitors, previous to taking up their residence at Egertpn Lodge, Melton Mowbray, for r, the bunting season. The mortal remains of the Countess (Dowager) of Stair were consigned to the family vault at Oxenford Castle, N.B. on Friday last. The funeral was of a very unos tentatious and private character. Viscountess Hardinge and her infant son are, we are happy to say, going on favourably. The Earl and Countess of Haddiogton have left Ber keley-square, for Tyninghame House, N. 8., for the season. The Earl and Countess Talbot and the ladies Talbot left town at the close of the past week for Ingestre Hall, Staffordshire, preparatory to the marriage of the Mar quis of Lothian with Lady Constance Talbot. Lord and Lady Calthorpe and the Hon. Miss Cal thorpe have left town for the family seat in Warwick shire. The Right Hon. James Stuart Wortley, MY., and Hon. Mrs. Wortley and family left Carlton-garden s, yesterday, for Brighton. The local legislature of the Isle of Man, called the Tynwald, has lately made a law which, like the act now in operation in Scotland, requires that public-houses shall be closed the whole of the Lord's-day, except to lodgers and bona fide travellers. The Duke and Duchess of Buccleuch and the Ladies Scott have returned to Montagu House, Whitehall, from Beaulieu, near Southampton, and in the course of a few day 3 depart for Scotland. The Marquis of Lothian has gone to Ingestre-hall, the Earl Talbot's seat in Staffordshire. The Marquis and Marchioness of Cholrnondeley have arrived at Cholmondeley Castle, Cheshire, from visit ing the lion Mr. and Lady Georgians Ryder, at West brook, near Hemelhempstead, Herts. Tan Lem Dula BLOMFIRLD.—The !mortal remains of the Right Hon. an d Right Rev. Charles James Blom field, late Bisbop of London, who expired on Wednesday last, will be removed this day for interment in a vault erected on a spot of ground in the picturesque church yard of the parish of Fulham, which was several years since purchased by the exemplary prelate. As a tribute of respect the clergy and many of the neighbouring tradesmen will assemble in the quadrangle of the palace at halt-past 12, and at one o'clock the procession will move to the church.i THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EV P: N I G, AUGUST 11 , 1u 7 RAILWAYS.

The amendine:it, after a short discussion, was how ever negatived. Clauses 101 and 102 were struck out. Mr. ROLT moved an amendment, giving compen-a tion to the manning clerks of proctors. The ATTORNEY-GENER I L left the question for the decision of the house, without expressing any opinion lon it himself. Mr. MALINS supported the amendment. After some remarks from Mr. AYRTON, in reference to a petition from a gentleman of the class referred to, entrusted to him for presentation, Mr. WILSON opposed the amendment upon the ground that it was informal, and proposed the intro• duction of a new class of claimants for compensation, which the house ought not to recognise. The amendment was negatived without a division. Clauses 121, 122, and 123 were struck out. Nr. COLLINS moved an amendment to the schedule, providing Wakefield as the only district registry for the West Riding :—" That Leeds be the place of district registry for the Wapentakes of Ewecross, Staineliffe, Claro (including the liberty of Ripon), Skyrack, Bark- I ston, Ash, and for the borough of Leeds, all in the west riding of the county of York." Mr. M. S. BAINES secsnded the amendment. It was essential for the well working of the bill and the interest of the inhabitants that the West Riding of York should be divided into two districts at least. Mr. ROEBUCK opposed the amendment. He con sidered it better to have one central district than to divide them. The hon. and learned member was stating his objections to the amendment when, it being ten minutes to four o'clock, he was stopped by the forms of the house. The further consideration of the amendments to the bill was then adjourned. NEW MEMBER. Mr. YOUNG took the oaths and his seat for Great Yarmouth. REVISING BARRISTERS (DUBLIN) BILL. This bill passed through committee. The other orders for the morning sitting were dis posed of, and the house suspended its sitting. The house resumed at 6 o'clock. [LEFT SITTING.] THE PERSIAN WAR. The bill as amended was considered. Mr. WESTLIEA.D moved a clause in lieu of clause 91, relative to the deposit of records, wills, and all other documents in the district registry, so•as to be easy of reference. After some remarks from the ATTORNEY-GENE RAL, Mr. WESTHEA D withdrew the clause on the under standing that words should be introduced into clause 91 to carry out the object he had in view where practicable. Mr. WEST HEAD then proposed a clause giving com pensation to the four advocates now enjoying the right of Exclusive audience in the courts of the province of York and diocese of Ripon. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL objected to the clause which was negatived without a division. Mr. AY RTON moved the introduction of the follow ing clause :—" That every person, to whom any com pensation shall be granted under this Act, shall, at all times when called upon, he liable to fill any public office or situation in England under the Crown for which his previous services in any office abolished by this Act may render him eligible ; and that if he shall decline, when called upon so to do, to take upon himself such office or situation, and execute the duties thereof satisfactorily, being in a competent state of health, he shall forfeit his right to any compensation or allowances which may have been granted to bim in respect of such previous services, under sec. 19, 4 and 5 Will. 4, cap. 24. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL thought the statutes did not apply to cases of this kind, where compensa tion was to be given for a valuable c onsideration. He approved of the principle, and saw no great objection to its introduction into the bill. Sir J. GRAITANI, the author of the clause referred to in the 4th and sth William IV., thought its salutary principle should be applied to cases of this kind as well as to the servants of the Crown, whose particular case it was introduced to meet. Mr. WIGRAIVI thought some difficulty would be ex perienced in carrying out this clause in the particular cases alluded to under the bill. Mr. ROEBUCK supported the principle of such clauses, which be considered very n ecessary. It would be a mere sham to pass them if in the words of the At torney-General, on a former occasion, they were so soon. 'to become rusty. He should next session move for a return of the amount of compensation to be paid under the bill, when he thought it would be found that we had paid dearly for the change. Mr. HENLEY supported the principle of the clause, but thought there would be great difficulty in carrying it out, and therefore he should vote against it. Mr. WILSON and Mr. E. DENISON supported the the clause. After a few words from Mr. SPOONER, The clause was agreed to and added to the bill. Mr. HADFIELD moved an amendment in clause 45, with the view of throwing open the Courts of Admiralty and Arches to all practising solicitors and Worrier. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said that if the Divorce and Matrimonial Causes bifl passed, that court would be thrown open. He had no objection to adopt the amendment so far as it related to the Court of Admiralty. - The amendment so modified was agreed to. Sir F. KELLY moved the addition of the following to clause 56 :—And every judge of county courts, having jurisdiction under this act, whose salary shall be less than filteeen hundred pounds a year, shall be paid out of the testamentary fee fund, in lieu of any fees for the business done by him under this act, so much money annually as, together with his salary as a county court judge, shall amount to fifteen hundred pounds. Mr. WILSON objected to the question of the salaries of the county court judges being raised in this indirect manner. It was out of order to make such a motion, and besides that the bill did not provide for the payment of fees to county court judges, nor did it provide for the creation of a testamentary fee fund, and as the money would have to be paid out of the consolidated fund the hon. and learned gentlemen could not propose such a clause without the consent of the Crown. After some remarks from Sir F. KELLY, The SPEAKER said it would be irregular to insert such a clause in this stage of the bill. Sir F. KELLY then withdrew the clause, but gave notice that he would endeavour to revive the question on the third reading of the bi;l. The amendment was then withdrawn. Mr. SPOONER moved several amendments to clause 99, giving county court registrars certain fees as an in crease of salaries, for certain duties to be performed under the bill. After a discussion in which Mr. Malins, Mr. Wilson, Sir F. Kelly, Mr. Bentinck, Mr. Ayrton, and other hon. members took part, The amendments were negatived on the same grounds as the clause for increasing the salaries of the county court judges. Mr. SPOONER th©n moved the omission of clause 99, and complained of the manner in which his pre vious amendments had been received, after his under standing with the A ttorney-Geueral that the registrars were to be paid for extra duties by fees. Mr. WILSON said that last year a compact was entered into between the registrars and the Gooernment, that they should in future be paid a fixed salary except for new business, not new duties. The amendments that had been proposed could only be entertained by the recommitment of the bill. The ATTORNEY -GENERAL said that he was not aware, when he introduced the bill, that such a com pact as that mentioned existed, as to its applicability to this bill, lie intended for the registrars to be paid (From the Glzette of this Evening.) INDIA. BOARD, AUG. 10. The following despatch has been received at the East India House, from the Governor-General of India in Council, to the Secret Committee of the East India Company : Fort-William, June 19, 1857. No. 34. We have the honor to forward for your information, printed copies of Notifications issued by the Right Honourable the Governor-General in Council, under date the 18th instant, Nos. 139 and 140, announcing the ratification of the Treaty of Peace with Persia, and recording his high sense of the important services ren dered by Lieutenant-General Sir James Outram, K.C.8., commanding the forces. 2. It affords us the highest gratification to recom mend to the most favourable consideration of the Hon ourable the Court of Directors and Her Majesty's Government, the arduous and successful services of the Military and Naval forces engaged in the operations directed against Persia. We have, &c. CANNING. J. DORIN. J. LOW. J. P. GRANT. B. PEACOCK. NOTIFICATIONS. Fort William, Foreign Department, June 18, 185?. No. 139. Authentic intelligence having been received that the ratifications of the treaty, which was signed at Paris by the plenipotentiaries of England and Persia on the 4th March last, were exchanged at Baghdad on the 2nd of May, the Right Honourable the Governor-General in Council is pleased to direct that a Royal Salute shall be fired from the Ramparts of Fort William, as well as at every principal station of the army in honour of the peace which has been concluded. No. 140. The Right Honourable the Governor-Ganeral in Council has had the satisfaction of announcing, from time to time, the signal successes which have been achieved by the combined action of the Military and Naval Forces, under the direction of Lieutenant-General Sir James Outram, K.C.8., on the coasts and in the interior of Persia. The surrender of Bushire on the 10th of December, after a brief and ineffectual opposition ; the operations against the Persian entrenched camp at Berazgoon ; and the complete victory obtained over the Persian army at Khooshab on the Bth of February ; the bombardment and capture of Mobacureh on the 26th of March ; and the brilliant attack, by a few hundred men, against Ahwaz, on the Ist of April, followed by the precipitate flight of the whole Persian army serving in that quarter, have signally instanced the vigour, the enterprising spirit, and the intrepidity with which the operations against Persia, both by sea and land, have been directed, and have earned for those who had a share in their execution the cordial approbaiion and the thanks of the Government of India. The Governor-General in Council has now the gratification of announcing that the Ratifications of the Treaty, which was signed at Patis by the Plenipotentiaries of England and Persia on the 4th of March last, were exchanged at Baghdad on the 2d of May ; and the entire withdrawal of the British forces from the soil and waters of Persia awaits only the fulfilment of the conditions of Peace, which were accepted by the Plenipotentiary of Persia on her behalf. The peace which has been thus concluded accomplishes the principal objects of the war, without needless humi liation to Persia, and places the relations of the British Government with that country, both political and com mercial, on an improved footing.. Though the negotiations by which this result has been obtained, were e onducted in Europe, their rapid and unch e c ked p ro g ress, and their early completion, mast be ascribed, in no small degree, to the vigorous operations and the successful achieve ments of the Persian Expeditionary Force. The brilliant reputation of Lieut.-General Sir James Outram, K.C.8., has acquired additional lustre from the promptitude, the vigorous energy and ability aith which he has exercised the command entrusted to him ; and the Governor-General in Council desires to record his high sense of the important duties rendered by this distinguished officer. The Governor-General in Council deeply laments that Major-General Stalker, C. 8., should not have lived to witness the successful completion of the war, in the com mencement of which he took so prominent and conspicu- ous a part. His Lordship in Council cordially appreciates the z.a lous and active (xdrtions of Brigadier-General Have lock, C. 8., and commends the order and dispatch with which the troops were /ended and formed at Mohamreh adder his direction. To Brigadier Honner, who shared with his Brigade in his attack on Bushire, and in the operations against Borazgoon ; to Brigadier Wilson, K.H., who com manded the Brigade of Infantry at Borazzoon and Moh arnreh ; to Brigadiers Hamilton end Hale, who were present with their brigades in the advance upon Mc harureh ; and to Brigadier Stuart, who was at the bead of the Cavalry of the 2d Division on the same occasion : to Lieutenant-Colonel Shepheard, who succeeded to the command of the let Infantry Brigade on the lamented death of Brigadier Stopford ; to Colonel Stisted, who led the let Brigade, 2d Division, iu the march on Borazgoon and the victory of Khooshab ; to Lieutenant-Colonel Tapp, who commanded the Cavalry Brigade on the same occasion as well as at Bushire ; and to Lieutenant- Colonel Trevelyan, Commanding Artillery, who took a part in every operation of the troops, except that against Ahwaz ; to all these, whose valuable ser vices have been gratefully acknowledged by the late Major-General Stalker, C. 8., and Lieut.-General Sir James Outram, K.C.8., the Governor-General in Council begs to offer his warmest thanks and the assur ance of his heartfelt approbation. The late Major-General Stalker, and Lieut.-General Sir James Outram, K.C.8., have expressed their obliga tions to the officers commanding regimentsand batteries of Artillery on the several occasions which c,dled for their exertions, and the Governor-General in Council has great satisfaction in publicly tendering his best thanks to Major Stirling, of H.M's 64th Font to Major M'lntyre, who took command of H.M.'s 78th Highlanders during the expedition to Borazgoon ; to Lieut.-Col. J. S. Ramsay, of the 2d Bombay Euro pean Light Infantry ; to Major Manson, of the Bombay Rifles ; to Lieut.-Cal.

The Governor-General in Council cordially unites with the late Major-General and the Lieutenant-General Commanding she Expeditionary Force in expressing his marked acknowledgments of the ever-ready and efficient assistance afforded by Colonel Lugard, C. 8., H.M.'s 29th Foot, the Chief of the staff, and the several Offi cers composing the General Staff.* To Capt.

The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack at 5 o'clock. TETE NUMBER OF JUDGES. . . Lord CAMPELL said he wi,hed to put a question to the noble and learned lord on the woolsack, upon a sub ject of considerable interest, he meant the report of tee commission appointed to inquire into the number and duties of the judges, and also to ascertain whether some of them could not be dispensed with. It was important to remove an impression which existed abroad that there was a greater number of judges than was required. He was a member of the commission alluded to, and they came to the unanimous opinion that the numl:_r of judges could not be diminished without serious injury to the public service. He should therefore wish to know whether the noble and learned ' lord bad received the report of the Commission, and if so, when it weuld be made public. The LORD CHANCELLOR said he entirely con curred with the noble and learned lord that it was ex pedient that the report of the committee should be laid on the midi of the house with as little delay as possible. He had not real the report officially, but it had been received by the Secretary of State, and to morrow he would put a question to him upon the sub ject, With regard to the commission itself it was nut issued because the Government thought there was a greater number of judges than was re quired, but because they felt that it was desirable to have the question fully investigated in order to remove an erroneous impression that exited in certain quarters. He rejoiced to hear that the con clusion at which the commission had arrived was, that there was not the smallest pretence for saying that there was a redundancy of common law judges. It was quite a mistake to supp)se that because a judge did not sit in his court during the long vacation that he had not suffi cient to occupy his natnel. He begged to assure the:noble and learned lord that the report would be presented with the smallest possible delay. SALE OF POISONS BILL. Lord CAMPBELL said, seeing his noble friend the President of the Council in his place, he begged to ask him what course was intended to be pursued with re spect to this bill. Earl GRANVILLE said that the committee to which the bill had been referred had received a great deal of evidence of a conflicting character. After giving the subject their beet consideration, some more alterations' had been made in the bill ; and, under these circum stances, it was thought advisable to postpone proceed ings with the bill till next session. It was therefore proposed to report the bill, with a view of affording the public the fullest information on the matter before a bill was passed on the subject. EASTERN BENGAL RAILWAY ILL COMPANY Lord STANLEY moved the suspension of the stand ing order No. 179, to enable their lordships to read this bill a second time.

Agent in Tu n rk t ish Arabia and Consul-General at Bagh dad, has been highly commended by Lient.-General Sir James Outram: K.C.8., and merits the unqualified approbation and hearty thanks of the Governor-General in Council, no less than does the gallantry of Captain Hunt, her Majesty's 78th Highlanders, and of the other Military* Officers who accompanied the expedition in queAior. The Indian Navy has taken a conspicuous part in the operations which have been now brought to a ter mination, and the Gonernor-General in Council must not omit to put on record the high sense which he entertains of its moat valuable and important ser flees. To Rear-Admiral Sir A. Leeke, K.II , Royal Navy, the Governor-General in Council begs again to offer his sincere acknowledgments for the promptitude and energy with which he gave his assistance in landing the troops at Halide Bay, and in attacking the fortifications of Bu shire. To Captain Griffith Jenkins, Captain of the fleet, to Acting Commander Adam, of the Assaye, and Lieu tenant C;arksnn, of the same vessel, to Captain Young, Commanders Rennie and Macdonald, and Acting Coon mauler Foulerton, much praise is due for their gallantry en the same occasion. The Governor-General in Ceuocil, however, desires specially to record his admiration both of the skill and energy displayed by Acting Commodore Young, I.N. (upon whom the command of the Gulf Squadron de volved on the lamented death of Comrnedore Ethersey), in the conduct of the difficult naval operations against Mohanirele and of the signal success with which they were crowned. The Govornor-General in Council has further re marked, with the highest gratification, the distin guished conduct of Commander J. Rennie, who, since the departure of Captain Young, has most efficiently commanded the naval forces in the Persian Gulf. In the enterprising advance upon Ahwaz, the signal suc cess obtained was due, in a very large measure, to the judgment and resolute gallantry of this able officer. The acknowledgments of the Government are also due to Commander Selby, of the Semiramis ; Commander Grieve, of the Clive ; Acting Com mander Manners of the Victoria ; and to Lieu tenants Commanding Tronson, of the Falkland ; and Wonky, of the Ajdaba, who contributed largely to the success of the day • and the special thanks of the Government are claimed for Com mander Adams, for the efficient manner in which he se conded the attack on the Northern Forts at Mohamreh. Acting-CoromodoreYoung has commended the conduct of Lieut. Chitty, commanding the Berenice ; of Comman der Nisbett, agent for transports ; and of Acting-Masters Commanding Meleaurin, of the Napier; Hal'and, Comet; Fletcher, of the Planet ; Neale, of the Assyria ; Davies, of the Ethersey flat ; and Mr. Dark, of the Hugh Lind sey, for the effective aid which they respectively ren dered in the attack on Mohamreh ; and the Governor- General in Council has great pleasure in acknowledging their good services. Finally, the Governor-General in Council wishes to offer his hearty thanks to all the officers and non-com missioned officers, of whatever designation, and to all the soldiers and sailors of the force, for the bravery, the endurance, and good conduct which they have displayed during the several operations in which they have been engaged.
