MONEY MARKET A ND COMMERCIAL IN CITY, Two o'CLocK. Letters from Liverpool report that the Cotton Market yesterday closed qu . etly, and prices were unaltered. The &Ales were es: mated at 6,000 bales, of which the speculat Ts took 500. The Railway Share Market manifested a rather quLt appear ance, but prices were steady. During the week the transactions in foreign and colonial produce have b -en to a fair extent, but speculation continues quiet, and the demand chiefly emanates from the trade, who are merely obtaining supplies for immediate consumption. The quota tions for most articles, however, remain firm, and as the importers do not supply the market to too great au extent, they are enabled to prevent any ma terial variiv ion. The accounts from India have increaQed the inquiry for Saltpetre, for which a slight advance has teen established, but there is now less animation. Grocery and the re finery descriptions of sugar are at steady rates, but the inferior kinds are a trifle lower. Coffee is dull. Tea is maintained at 140. for common Congou ; and in rice a large business has been transacted. at late values. In other articles, such as spices, sago, cocoa, and indigo, there has not la--en any variation of im portance, but cochineal is ld. to 21 perlb. cheaper. Tallow is heavy, and P.Y.C. is 575. 3d. to 575. 6d. per cwt. on the spot. The market for cotton is dull, but there is no change in prices to notice. It is now estimated that the steamer Colombo, to leave on Sunday for India and Canna, will con vey about 500,0001. in silver, and the Atrato, which has left te-day for the West Indies will take out 3,6701. monthly in gold. This diminished drain encourages the belief that the bullion in the Bank of Eugland will increase, because during the remainder of the year large arrivals of gold from Australia may be calculated upon. The import of silver from the Uontinent during the last we e k has been limit e d, an d th us ver y few remittances of gold in payment have to be made. Yesterday, however, about 12.0001. was withdrawn from tire Bank of Eng!aud for this purpose. There was a slight improvement on the Paris Bourse yesterday, the Triree per Cent. Retires having closed at 68'20 for money and 68 . 5 for the end of the month. B ink of Fra ce shares are rapidly advancing and they are n ow 2 900. As a proof that the monetary affairs of France are improving, it is st,ted that important measures are contemplated by the Bar k of Franca ; amongst others, it is expected that the que-tion of making advances of Si) instead of 60 per cen.e upon R ryes, and 60 ins cad of 40 per cent ripen Railway shares will be enter anted. Some per,ons expected a reduction of the rate of discount at the late meet ing of the Council ; but this seems to have been conideterl preijieture. The Money market is now rather quieter, but there is no alteration in the quotations, and full terms are in all ca ,, es, demanded_ Ample provision appears to have been made for the commercial bills falling due on Saturday—the 4th being on Sunday —and it is un lerstood that the engagements are numerous and heavy. In the English Stock market there is very little alteration to report, but the quotations appear rather weaker, although busing ss is dull. Not with standing the buoyancy apparent during the list two days, sonic of the speculat irs are of opinion that the recent improvement has not been war ran ed, and to their sales mint be attri buted the flatness now apparent. kurchasers for iuvestinent are made to a limited extent, but they have little or no influence upon the market. Consols have been 904 for money, and 90i for account. They are now 901 and 901 respec tively. India Stock is 208, and Rink Stock 219. Exchequer Bills are 9s. to ss. di .count. Very few trans actions have been recorded in the Foreign Market, but the prices are well maintained. Turki-h 6 per Cents. aro firm at 95 ' 4 and the 4 per C e nts. tare at nominal rags..

MANSION-HOUSE. THE ALLEGED LIBEL ON THE LORD MAYOR ELECT (SIB R. W. CARDIN). —Mr. Thomas Plant Rose, deputy bridgemaster, and connected with the Fellowship of Porters, 102, Cox's-terrace, Lower-road, Bermondsey, appeared in answer to a summons obtained by Alderman Sir R. W. Carden, M.P. (Lord Mayor elect), charging him with having attempted to extort money from him by threatening to print and publish, or offering to abstain from printing and publishing a certain libel affecting the said Sir R. W. Carden. The cage arose out of the late proceedings connected with the election of Lord Mayor, the money being claimed to abstain from issuing placards to incite the livery against the return of Alderman Car den as Lord Mayor. Mr. Humphreys appeared for the complainant, and Mr. Lewis (Ely-place), for the defendant. Mr. Humphreys said that Sir R. Carden appeared be fore his lordship to complain of the defendant's conduct relative to the late election of Lord Mayor, under a sta tute that made it an offence for any one to (directly or indirectly) attempt what was charged against the defen dant. The learned gentleman having detailed the facts he should prove, said that no other construction could be put upon the defendant's conduct than that stated in the summons, because no opposition was offered by the Livery to the election of the alderman. He then called the following witnesses, and said that if he proved hie case he should ask the prisoner to be held to bail to answer any further charge that mightbe brought against him. Mr. Secondary Potter deposed that in the early part of last week (Wednesday or Thurday) the defendant called on him. Witness, knowing him, askel him if there was to be any opposition to Sir R. Carden. He replied, certainly, that he had been appointed agent by the publicans or victuallers for that purpose. 4,000/, or 5,0001. was subscribed, and he was certain that a poll would be demanded and Sir R. Carden rejected. Wit ness said he was sorry to hear it; that was all that passed between them. Sir R. Carden afterwards called on witness, and he communicated what had passed between them to Sir R. Carden. By Mr. Lewis—The conversation on the subject arose from his asking Mr. Rose if there was to be an opposi tion. Witness bad previously heard a rumour (as was the usual case) that there was to by an oppooitioa_ Mr. Thorpe, King-street, Cheapside, chairman of the Navigation Committee—Some days before the election he saw the defendant in the lobby of the Guildhall, and had a conversation with him relative to the then pend ing election of Lord Mayor. He asked the defendant if it was probable that Sir Robert would he opposed. Defendant replied he thought so, as 1,500/. had been subscribed by the publicans or licensed victuallers, and that it would take 1,6001. to beat it, but Sir Robert did not feel disposed to meet it. Defendant expressed sorrow at such being the case, because Sir Robert was a very good man, and ought to come in. He after wards communicated the conversation to Sir R. Carden. By Mr. Lewis—Most likely he commenced the con versation, and, in consequence, what followed took place. He bad had conversations with others as to the sup posed opposition to Sr Robert ; be heard it frequently mentioned, but he did not think he heard that as Sir Robert was a rich man he ought to spend a little money. Alderman Hale deposed that previous to the election —about a fortnight—he had a conversation with the defendant about the election ; seeing Mr. Rose at the Guildhall and knowing he took an interest in the elections of Lord Mayor he asked him if there was to be any opposition at the ensuing election, and he replied there was, because Sir Robert was very obstinate. Mr. Lewis submitted that the defendant should only be called on to meet the charge specified in the summons committed on the 27th September, and not a variety of charges such as that now deposed to. The Lord Mayor said he must have the whole of the evidence first, and decide the case after. Alderman Hales continued—R ose said there would be an opposition unless an arrangement was made with him. He said 2,6001. had been subscribed, and alluded to the licensed victuallers, who he said were very angry at Sir Robert's conduct. Witness afterwards communi cated the conversation to Sir Robert. By Mr. Lewis---He had no previous communication with Alderman Carden before he saw Mr. Rose. Wit ness commenced the conversation partly from inqusi five motives and partly from a desire not to see a con• test. Herwas not on that occasion professing to act as a friend of Sir Robert's. He saw Sir R. Carlon about three or four days after the conversation. He didn't think that he asked others about any opposition. He asked Mr. Rose because he was the person who - generally conducted the oppositions. Mr. Deputy Kebble deposed that he saw the defend. ant previously to the 21st September. Defendant called on him and said that he had come to know if anything was likely to be done, and that ho supposed witness knew the object of his visit. Witness suspected what it was, and replied that he had nothing to say to him, because he had not seen Sir R. Carden, but that he was to see him at half•paet 10 o'clock that day, and if he would call on him (witness) at 12 o'clock he aught have something to say to him. Defendant called at that time, and witness told him he had nothing t 3 say to him then, but that he should see Sir R. Carden again, and he had better call the next day. Defendant did not on either occasion say anything about his being employed in reference to the election. Defendant called the next day, the 22d, when witness told him he was not in a position to say anything to him, but that be might be. At the first interview defendant produced a MS. paper, which he stated had been sent to a printer by a publican of high standing. He had called on the printer and asked to see it. He at first refused, but as it happened to be a printer who had printed for him for 20 years, he said to him, "if you don't show it to me you shall never print another line for me." Upon that the printer pro duced the MS , and be snatched it out of his hand and placed it in his pocket, at which the printer was very angry. He read the paper. Mr. Humphreys asked the defendant to produce the paper. _ _ - Mr. Lewis said he had not got it. Mr. Humpreys handed the witness a printed placard, headed, " Who are we to have for Lord Mayor I" Mr. Deputy Kebble said the MS. he had read was similar to the first part of the placard produced, but stopped at that part which stated that Alderman Car den's evidence " was offensive to ourselves as men, aid disgustingly so at regarded our wives and daughters." The placard has been already published. At the third and last interview with the defendant, witness informed him that Sir Robert Carden would do nothing ;" on that defendant pulled out a paper, but whether it was the one witness saw before or not, he could not say, and replied, " this shall be posted to-night, and Sir Robert is out and no mistake." He communicated the conversation to Sir Robert. By Mr. Lewis—No sums of money were men tiened—except some reduced sums that were scat tered in the hands of licensed victuallers, who bad subscribed towards an opposition. One he said resided at Islington, and another elsewhere, but witness did not recollect them, because he paid no atten tion to it, considering it a little bombast on the defen dant's part. He was the deputy of Sir Robert's ward and his friend. Witness bad a conversation with Mr. Millard, senior Under Sheriff, with reference to the de fendant. Before he saw him defendant said to witness at the first interview that he had been seat to him by Mr. Millard. He had a conversation with Sir R. Carden relative to the engagement of Mr. Rose as an election agent before he had an interview with him ; Mr. Millard was present with witness and Sir R. Carden, and they urged on Sir Robert that be should be employed, to prevent trouble and expense. Mr. Lewis—What was lie to be employed to do ? Witness—to pack the hall. Mr. Lewis—With what ? Witness—With long-shore men. Mr. Lewis—What were they to be paid, and was he to have any remuneration for his services? Witness—Our proposition went to that extent, but I believe no sum was named. Mr. Lewis—May I takeit that Sirß. Cardedconeurrecl with you and Mr. Millard on the propriety of packing the hall with long shore-men Witness—Quite the revere. It was not afterwards arranged by him and Mr. Millard, in the presence of Sir R. Carden, to send for Mr. Rose. Witness had only one interview with Mr. Millard on this subject. After the first interview with the defendant witness appointed the subsequent ones. Witness never saw Mr. Millard afterwards on the matter. Re did not see what was ort the paper Rose produced at the last interview. Mr. Lewis—Why did you tell Mr. Rose to come to you on three successive occasions ? Witness—That I might in the meantime communicate with Sir R. Carden. Mr. Lewis—Did you not state to the defendant that you had the whole management of the election I Witness—l can't recollect if I went so far as that. Mr. Lewis—Had you the management of the elec tion ? Witness—l thought so, but it afterwards turned out I had not. Mr. Lewis—When did you discover that ? Witness—When I thought myself and Mr. Millard had wrung from Sir Robert a reluctant compliance with what we wished to carry out. On Monday, 21st Sept., witness called on Sir R. Carden, by appointment, when he repudiated the idea that he had given witness any authority to enter into an arrangement with Mr. Rose. In my first interview with the defendant he told himthat; he thought he had a awl blanche from Sir R. Carden, but that he then found he was mistaken. Mr. Lewis—Now, from the first to the last, did yo u not seek the interview with Mr. Rose Witness—No, he sought me. Mr. Lewis—Was it your proposition, as deputy of the ward, that the hall should be packed Witness—Yes ; because Sir Robert Carden was threatened with an opposition. Mr. Lewis—Then the object was to fill the ball with men to keep out the voters ? Witness—No ; because they are voters, and are pi►id for voting. Mr. Lewis—Then to have the voters all on one side I Witness—Yes. Mr. Lewis at this stage (three o'clock) asked for an adjournment, on account of his being compelled to leave the court. Mr. Humphreys resisted the application. Mr. Lewis said such a course was usual, and he .tp pealed to Sir It. Ca► den not to proceed with the case in his abseece. Sir R. Carden—l have nothing to do with the Ca' le. I leave it in the hands of my solicitor. Mr. Humphreys—l shall not allow you to interfore with me in conducting the case. If any odium arises from this proceeding let it rest entirely on me. Inspector Mitchell WAS then called, and proved ihe posting of the bills in question on the walls of the Guildhall. After some other evidence of a formal character, Thomas Wicking, bill-sticker, said that he obtained the placards from a gentleman in Guildhall-yard, between seven and eight o'clock at night of Tuesday, the 22d. He met the gentleman by appointment. Mr. Humphreys—Who was the gentleman who gay you the bills ? Witness—l can't swear to him ;he was a stoutish man. Mr. Humphreys—Do you see him in court ? Witness—lf I was to see him again I could not identify him. Mr. Millard, senior under sheriff, deposed that before the election he sent for Mr. Rose, and he called on him and had a conversation with him on the a❑suing election. I asked him what would be his retaining fee in the event of his being engaged as agent for Sir R. Carden, in con sequence of a threatened opposition to that gentleman ; the answer was he left it to me ; I told him I was de• sinus he should name the sum, bnt as he appeared un • willing to do so, I asked him if 1001. to cover all the expenses of the poll wool' be a sufficient remuneration, with the addition of 501. in the event of Sir R. Carden', election ; he made no reply, and I said I would com municate with Sir R. Carden if he would give the answer and if his services were required he would be sent for'. defendant left and called again on the 18th Septembe r ' after I had seen Sir R. Carden. I told him then that I had nothing further to do in it, and I sent him to Mr Deputy Kebble ; I had no communication after with' the defendant. Mr. Millard wished to state what passed between him and Sir R. Carden, to clear hie character from any im putation that might rest on it from the part he had taken in these proceedings, but _ _ Mr. Humphreys said he could not a9k him, nor let him state it. No doubt Mr. Lewis would ask him on the next examination. The farther examination of Mr. Millard was then deferred. Alderman Sir R. Carden was then called and sworn He deposed that he never authorised or even thought of the defendant being employed in reference to his election for Lord Mayor ; he was the next Alderman in rotation for the civic chair. This was the case for the complainant, and the further hearing was adjourned till to-morrow at one o'clock. MARLBORO UGH-STREET. jI7VENILE DEPRAVITY.—John King, a diminutive lad, ten years of age, whose head scarcely reached to the top of the desk, was charged before Mr. Bingham with stealing two sovereigns under the fallowing circum stances. Sarah King, a poor but respectable widow, stated tbat she was the prisoner's mother, and that her son, although so young, was an adept in depravity. On Wednesday last her sister, who lodged with her, missed two sove reigns from her pocket, and as the prisoner bad ab sconded from his home just before, he was at once suspected of being the thief. She accordingly procured the assistance of a policeman, and went in search of him. After considerable trouble the young thief was found snugly ensconced in the gallery of the Soho Theatre. Bruce, 14 C, said he found the prisoner in the gal. lery of the Soho Theatre, and conveyed him to the sta tion on the present cbarge. The child admitted the theft, and said he apd another boy had spent it all in pastry and sweet stuff. He then searched him, and found a small pistol, with powder, ball, and caps, which he said he had bought for 65., in order to come "Jack Sheppard" with, just as he had seen it at a penny show. The defendant, who had put a bold lace upon the matter up to this time, now began to bellow and cry for mercy, and he " Would not never do so again, that he wouldn't—nor did he want to come Jack Sheppard,' that he didn't." Mr. Bingham said it was a shocking case of early de pravity, and he should take care of the prisoner for the present by sending him to prison for a week, where he would be under the care of the chaplain. WESTMINSTER, HORRIBLE DISCLOSURE. —A girl between 16 and 11 years of age, of very prepossessing appearance was brought before the magistrate under circumstances of a very peculiar description. Mr. G. Humphrey's, an inspector of police, said that at a quarter past eleven last night, the accused was brought in charged with being disorderly in the street. She shortly afterwards became very ill, and had a suc cession of fits, during which she was attended by Mr. Peruse, the divisional surgeon. She way not locked up in a cell, but kept in the reserve room, and bA meen oue and two in the morning, when she partially recovered, she asked permission to walk in the lArge yard, which separates the station-house from the court. It was granted, and she went out, but as witness was determined to keep a watchful eye over her, he followed in two or three minutes time, but, to his surprise, he coal 1 not 'at first dis cover her. He then went to a dark corner of the yard, where be found her partially strangled and turn ing black in the face. Mr. Paynter—How had she done it Mr. Humphreys— By tying a piece of tape as tightly as possible round her throat. _ _ Mr. Paynter—Did she say anything when she had sufficiently recovered to speak ? Mr. Hun3pheys—Yes • she Expressed her firm deter mination to destroy herself at the very first opportunity, and I have had to keep a sharp watch upon her all night. Mr. Paynter—Do you know anything of her I Mr. Humphreys—She refuses to give her real name or any account of herself but that she is on the streets. She is much depressed, and upon tity endeavouring to soothe her told me that she had been seduced by her own father, and that she had then abandoned her home in disgust. Mr. Paynter—Let her be remanded and taken care of for the present, while we endeavour to see what can be done with her. MARKET NEWS.—(This Day.) CORN EXCHANGE. The show of English wheat in to-day's market, coast wise and by railway was ♦ery limited. For all kinds we had a steady demand, at prices fully equal to Monday last.

The trial which has just taken place at Stirling has resulted in a verdict which promises to form a very useful example. Mr. Salmon, the manager of the Falkirk branch of the Commercial Bank of Scotland, wa, recently discovered to have misappro priated between 25,000/. and 30,0001. of the sums► entrusted to him. He was a justice of the peace, an elder of the church, an ex-provost of the town, and a prominent political leader. When he found that his delinquency had become known he ab sconded, and hanged himself in the stable of a public-house. The course of legal justice was therefore in his case ended. But there had been two clerks in the establishment, named Reid and Gentles, who had been fully cognisant of his proceedings, as they had abetted him in falsi fying the books, 'although they do not appear to have participated in the slightest degree in the plunder. These men the bank were advised to prosecute criminally, and the jury by a majority of nine to six has just pronounced them guilty. The considerations that as very young men they were greatly under the influence of a personage enjoying the local pos .- Lion of Mr. Salmon, that they had hitherto conducted themselves respectably, and that they had not personally had a single farthing of the money, were at the same time allowed due weight, and they were recommended in the strongest pos sible manner to the leniency of the Court. Lord Handyside, the judge, concurred in this view within proper limits, and instead of transportation their sentence was eighteen months' imprisonment in Perth Penitentiary. The wholesome lesson will ac cordingly go forth that all persons who wilfully assist in concealing pecuniary malpractices, even though they may themselves take no share of the proceeds of the fraud, are liable to ignominious punishment. Generally, in such cases, the plea that the parties have derived no pecuniary or other benefit from the defalcations which have been tole rated excites a certain kind of false sympathy, as if they had been actuated by no bad motive, or, per haps, even by a kindly and unselfish one. Nothing could be more vicious than such a doctrine, and there will be no safety in the management of any public companies until it is put down. All who ac cept situations of trust have a clear duty before them. If they neglect that duty it must be for some motive of personal gratification. Many who are indifferent about money will break a trust solely that they may feed their vanity. Thus, occa sionally, in Boards of Direction humble men will wink at misdeeds by which they ostensibly gain nothing, merely to curry favour with more pre suming spirits. Some again, from a grasping conceit or a desire .to have a field for favouritism, will accept positions of responsibility to watch over the property of others which they never intend in the slightest degree to fulfil, or for which they may be utterly incapable. They take the reward and cheat their clients of the service—an unstigmatised sort of larceny of which two or three notable instances have lately been furnished. Others will assist a per sonal acquaintance to help himself to the funds of strangers just as they would let a favourite dog commit depredation on the premises of their neigh bours. Some are corrupted by social amenities and a dazzling patronage. But for such people the tribe of which Colonel Waugh and Mr. Salmon are apparently specimens would enjoy a very limited career. Yet, although the motive in each of these cases is as selfish and despicable as if it had sprung simply from the acquisitive pro pensity, society has hitherto taken little account of them. Let it be understood that every breach of duty written or implied is primarily alike dis graceful and involves liability, whatever may be the subsequent pleas of mitigation of punishment, and such exposures as have defaced the commercial records of the civilised world during the past four or five years will gradually cease. The public have the matter in their own hands, and the case now reported from Stirling gives them an important precedent in the right direction. LLOYD'S SHIPPING.--(This Day.)
