MONDAY NIGHT. IN the intelligence received during the week from the seat of war, there has been little of stirring interest, the operations being rather of preparations for future proceedings than productive of present results. At the same time, the tone has been rather unfavourable than otherwise, owing to the numerous cases of sickness, and the loss of many valuable offi cers, including the Commander-in-Chief, the Deputy- Adjutant-General, and the gallant Captain Lyons. This state of things has not been without its influence on the Public Funds, but notwithstanding an occa sional drooping tendency the fluctuations have been comparatively trifling, owing, no doubt, in a great measure to the redundancy of capital creating a con stant demand for investment on the part of the public. Discounts have been easy, and no alteration has taken place in the low rates which have recently prevailed. The Bank returns on Friday show another increase in file stock of bullion to the extent of £108,310, the total being now £18,169,026, while the reserve of unemployed notes, which is usually considered as the criterion by which the ability . of the Bank of England to extend accommodation is judged, is very nearly twelve millions. The other changes are undeserving of particular comment. The arrivals of specie during the week have been large, amounting in all to upwards of £BOO,OOO, of which £343,836 came from Australia. The shipment have been moderate, and do not mach exceed £50,000. The total imports of specie during the month just completed amount altogether to about £2,506,000, of which £493,520 came from AuAralia. The shipments of the month reach to nearly £1,000,000. The total arrivals of specie from all parts during the first half of the present year amount 'to £1.3,616,000, of Which £5,265,000came from Australian ports. The total ship ments during the same ptriod were about £3,500,000. The accounts from Manchester teem with com plaints of depression - since the check given to the cotton speculation in 'this market, and spinners are earnegtly persuaded•not to lend themselves to another upward movement, .on the ground that the reports of the 'growing crops are highly favourable. It must be evident, however, `'that the existing stocks are very short, and unless - the manufacturers can find other `sources of supply - than the United States, any increase -of demand, such; as may reasonably beanticipated, will very shortly render the quantity . available inadequate 'to their requirements. A rise in the rivers may cer tainly add something to the receipts, but not at all commensurate with the existing deficiency, more par ticularly as Ihe rate of consumption, especially of middling and lower qualities, is-Steadily increasing. The returns of the Board of . lhade for the month of' May have just been published. in the declared value of exports of British produce and manufactures, there appears a-ilecrease of £37 4 050 as compared with 'the corresponding month of la:4t year.

WOOL,—Considering the lightness of stock, the market has again been active during the week, and the late improved rates fully maintained. The next series of .public sales in London will commence on Thursday next, when upwards of 70,000 bales will be offered ; this being an unusually large quantity put on the market at once, these sales are looked forward to with more than an ordinary degree of interest. Combing skin continues in very active demand, and would realise full prices. Imports for the week, 107 bales : viz„ 35 Mediterranean, 63 Irish, 9 Coastwise. Messrs. WM. GEEA.ME and Co., in their monthly circular, say : We have again a satisfactory report to give of the Wool market, the amount of business during the past month has been considerable, both by public sale and private contract ; the late improvement in prices generally has been fully sup ported, and a farther advance has been paid on some descrip tions, such as East India, Egyptian, Oporto, &c., and upon which we accordingly enhance our previous quotations. The arrivals from the Levant and Mediterranean continue to be unusually small, and stocks of all descriptions of low foreign Sheep's Wools are now reduced to so low an ebb, as to cause serious apprehensions of a short supply of these descriptions for future requirements. Both Alpaca and Mohair have been in considerable request during the past month ; in the latter some considerable sales have been made at extreme quota tions, but of Alpaca we have been almost entirely without supply, the late imports having been nearly all sold to arrive, and holders are now asking higher prices for what is expected, Messrs. HUGHES and RONALD say : Since the public sales on the 14th, the Wool market has been rather quieter, nearly everything of current quality having been cleared off at that time, and we have been since left extremely bare of stocks,there having beenvery few arrivals. In Wools, of home growth, an active business has been done throughout the country, and growers who are at all prepared to accept market value, find no difficulty in effecting sales, but there is, in many cases, a disposition to stand out for extreme rates, The clip, as far as has been anertained, is TIM, LIVERPOOL STANDARD. reported to be both light in quantity and the Wool is not so sound as usual, the healthy growth having been checked by the severity of the season. The next public sales of Australian and other fine Wools commence in London on the sth July. The prospects for this article are good, and, according to the prices paid at the late German Wool fairs, a considerable advance might reasonably be expected, if the quantity to be brought forward were confined within reasonable dimensions ; but with such a liberal supply as 70,000 bales, the result must be attended with much uncertainty, and will, no doubt, show considerable irregularity in prices. Messrs. JOSEPH ROBINSON and Co. say :7- Considerable animation has been manifested in the Wool market throughout the month, both home and foreign buyers having willingly operated, at advanced prices, to a large ex tent, which has reduced stocks to that degree as to seriously impede business, there being little choice, and several descrip tions are completely exhausted. The English clip is over ;in Scotland, the shearing is progressing. At the fairs already held, buyers have been eager purchasers ; and farmers (from the high prices of grain and stock ruling for some time) are in a positiom to hold, so that high prices have been demanded and obtained : but the majority prefer, yet, to wait events, rather than to accept the late advance, and their views may be correct, as it is known that manufacturers generally are very scantily supplied. META.Ls.—There is little in this market on which to comment. The preliminary meeting of the Staf fordshire itonmasters on Thursday was not nume rously attended, and the general opinion was to make no change in prices. An improved demand is anticipated.

THE; FIED JACKET.—After.a somewhat protracted passage, this notie ship arrived in Habson's Bay on Sunday evening, lad none of that dignity of appearance .which charac terises one:of the finest and largest ships which ever graced the Baywith her presence. No one would imagine that that orderly arrangement of ropes, yards, sails, and other parapher nalia, that jet black exterior and ,perfectly clean condition,had received the.buffetings, for three,months, of a thousand angry seas and ;thousage of upwwrds of:four hundred persons. But so it is, and, this magnificesit specimen ,of naval architecture looks to all advantage of a newly-built ship. The Red Jacket started on her voyage, baying been detained in the Mersey se.veral days by adverse winds, on the 28th December. The Channel.nassage was made in two days, after which, for several days, we discover, on reference to her long, that.slight breezes prevailed, denominated by the captain light...airs," during which the, greatest speed attained in one day was two hundred and twenty-five milei. On the,tenth day out, in lat. 38 N., long. 20 ° W., she encountered heavy _gales from ;the westward, accompanied with hard squalls and high seas, during the prevalence of which her average speed seas under _ 10 miles per day. This condition of things lasted five.or six days whesi a change to the " airs" again took place, and,from 1at.1.2° N. on the 13th of January the progress made to the 4th of February was to 19°,307. S., an advance of but 32° 30 1 ' in 23 days. Throughout the .whole of these 23 days a breeze of average strength did .not blow, and even the N.*E. trades were away and could not be courted to return ; the greatest speed attained in this period in one day was 280 miles, and the -lowest 62 miles. From the sth to the Bth of February, there .siere four days on which fresh breezes prevailed from the E.N.E., and within a point or,two of that direction, the only period of that duration in w hieb. the wind blew so uniform from one quarter ; 285 miles per day, a thing unheard of till then on the passage, were ,attained. The next day was attended with a return of ill fortune ; and on the 9th of the month, so " all round the compass," were the winds that 26 were the sum total of miles attained on that day. This condition of things, varied from .25 to 34 and 60, continued to the when the Island of Tristan D'Acunha was made' from which a boat came off with potatoesand live stock, which were gladly welcomed. The description of the rest of the passage mould be to a great extent a repetition of the foregoing, as, when the wind blew tolerably fair, it was so very light as scarce to fill the sails ; and when strong, it was uniformly ahead. The greatest distance accomplished in one day was 319 miles, and the most southerly latitude reached was 49'24. As far as the comforts of a sea passage are con cerned, the passengers received none of those tossings about which are so unpleasant to persons making their first voyage at sea, and the passage throughout can be considered in no other light than as a mere pleasure trip. No observant person who notices the unparalleled unpropitious character and strength of the winds which this vessel has encountered can any longer wonder at -the length of her passage ; the only wonder is, as a gentleman in her cabin expressed to us, that she has arrived at all with such weather, and we con ceive that the Red Jacket will have lost none of the lustre of her former achievements, but rather have added to them by the fact of having overcome so many and such long repeated obstacles in so short a space as eighty-five days. The officers of the ship are enthusiastic in her praise. We took an opportunity, while on board, of ascertaining the general feeling of all classes of passengers as to the general management, provisioning, and the estimation in which the captain and officers were held, and were told that an ample supply of the best class of provisions bad been afforded. Perhaps the very best test which could be afforded of the cap tain's repute among the passengers is to be found in the fact that when the ship hove to at the Heads, he received the en thusiastic plaudits of the assembled passengers, and that too after his voyage had been nearly completed. We remark after the completion of the voyage, because those signs of approval are more frequently bestowed before a captain becomes known than after, and this graceful compliment to Captain Milward deserves especial mention on account of the time when it was bestowed. Our information enables us to say that this fa vourite ship will have the same prompt delivery of cargo and despatch as she had on the occasion of her last voyage to this port, and that every means will be taken by her enterprising agents and captain to ensure a continuance of the high repu tation which this renowned ship has achieved,--Melbourne Angus, of 25th March, DEATH OF LORD RAGLAN. WAR DEPARTMENT, June 30. LDED PANMIIRE has received intelligence from General Simpson announcing the fatal termination of Lord Raglan's ill ness. Until 4 p.m. on the 28th his Lordshiphad been progressing to the satisfaction of his medical attendants, when alarming symptoms developed themselves, attended with difficulty of breathing, which gradually increased. From 5 p.m. he was unconscious, and from this period he gradually sank until 25 minutes before 9, at which hour he died. The event has plunged the whole army into the most profound grief. The Moniteur of Sunday publishes the following:—Already, some days since, letters from London stated that Lord Raglan was seriously ill. A despatch from General Pelissier received to-day, dated June 28, 10 p.m., announces the death of the ex cellent General whom the Government of Queen Victeria had selected as Commander-in-Chief of our allies in the East. France will share the regrets of General Pelissier. His des patch to the Minister of War is as follows : It is with deep regret that I have to announce to you that the venerable chief of the English army expired this evening at 9 o'clock. We are the more affected by his death, as during the preceding 24 hours his health seemed to have considerably impioved. •••••••••01.4 ROYAL SYMPATIIY. — The sympathy which the whole coun try must feel with the family of Lord Raglan has been evinced at the earliest moment. Even the fear of intruding upon private sorrow has not prevented an immediate expression of condolence on the part of some of the highest and noblest in the 'realm. The intimation of Lord Raglan's demise reached his widow at noon on Saturday, by the hand of the Hon. Robert Dundas, who was commissioned to perform the sad office by the First Lord 'of the Admiralty. Within a very short period His Royal Highness Prince Albert called person ally to convey Her Majesty's condolence in an autogiaph letter; and, further to show that this expression of feeling was not merely etiquette, again repeated his inquiries in the evening. Her Royal Highness 'the Duchess of Kent sent to make inqui ries as soon as the 'painful intelligence reached her and their Royal Highnesses the Duchess of Cambridge and the Princess Mary, and Hereditary Grand Duchess of Meklenburg Strelitz, were among the earliest to offer their condolences. Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Glocester and his Royal Highness the Duke of 'Cambridge also sent to make inquiries. The Queen's anxiety on Lady Raglan's behalf was further exhibited by two 'messages in the course of Sunday, Fisid-Mhrshal Fitzroy Jaiies Henry 'Somerset, Ist Baron , Raglansninth son of the fifth Duke of Beaufort, was born in MS; married in 1814 the second daughter of the third Earl of Meftington, niece of the Duke of Wellington ; entered 'the array as cornet in the 4th Dragoons, 9th June, 1804; Bentenant, 1805; captain, 1808; major, 1811; lieut.-colonel, /8123 colonel, 1815 ; major-general, 1825 • lieut.-general, 1.838; general, 20th Jane, 1854; field-marshal, Nov. Z, 1854. Lord Raglan has -had issue-.-Riehard Henry Fitzroy, b. 1817.—Charlotte Caroline Elizabeth,b. 1815.—ArthutVilliam Fitzroy, major in the army, b. I'Bl6 ; d. 1845, of wounds 'received at the baffle of Ferozeshah, having in. 1845, Emily Louise, widow of Mellish, Esq., (who married 3rdly, 1850, Henry Webster, tsq.) --liatherine Anne Emily Cetilia, b. 1824. Lord Raglan was Master-Genetal of the Ordnance, a lieut.- general in the army, colonel of the 53rd foot,'and a Commis sioner of the :Royal Military College and loyal Military Asylum ; was 'formerly 'secretary of embasSy at Paris, and secretary to the Master-General of the Ordnance from 1819 to 1827. His lordship entered the army as'tornet in the 4th Dragoons, in 1804; became a lieut.-general 'in 1838, and was appointed colonel of the 53rd foot in 1830. 'He received a cross and Eve -clasps fbr his . services as aidscle:oamp and military secretary to' the • Duke- tf Wellington, -at Fuentes de Onor, Badaioz, 'Salamanca, Vittoria, Pyrenees, Nivelle, Nive, Orthes, and Tonlouse ; and after serving in Flanders, was at Waterloo, where he - lost' his right arm. His lordship was secretary to two successive Commenders-in-Chief,ssaid, on the death of the Dike 'WellingtonThe was raised - to the peerage on being appointed Master-Gsneral of the Ordnance. Upon this Subject' the Times of yesterday says :—Although Lord Raglan did ntt possess the highest qualities of military genius, and althOugh the enormous magnitude of the' enter prise hi which itwas his fate to be engaged may have de manded a degree of energy and a vehemence of character more often' fbuttel in younger men, the reputation be leaves behind him is cue which the brdvest might be proud to enjoy andsthe best might envy. HaVing passed a long life 'in the sersice of 'his country, in posts of high authority, and in the , digtharge of 'many delitate and arduous duties, he dies with , oft an enemy, and his memory is unstained by a single act of selfishness, 'inhumanity, err' mkindness. He brought - to the Inssfessioroof arms a chiralrous gallantry which increased the ituStre of , his descent frail one of those historic families whose rank is most fitly marked by the services they have rendered 'to the Crown of England, and the great house of Somerset has borne no scion whose-eaves is more visibly -Stamped with mobility. In early life it :had been his good fortmietolold a - place-of trust under the nisost eminent of English generals, %who made his head-tsaaiters and the field of arms a school of administration and tf public duty. There first he - learnt to practise that art of conciliating and governing 'those -subordi mate to his orders or bisitriluence by a candid -appreciation of their merits and. by (constant consideration for their feelings. /To this period of lairs Ma tribute has been paid by the his /torian of the " Peninsular War," which will be read at this -moment with melancholy interest. Speaking of the condition of the British army in Spain in 1812, Sir William Napier says : "The old regiment:austere incredibly hardsoand experienced in all things necessary's° sustain their strength and efficacy.; -Ike Staff was well practised ; and Lord Fitzroy Somerset, Military Secretary, had established such an intercourse be tween the head-quarters and battalion - chiefs, that the latter [ADA, so to speak, direct communication with the General-in- Chief upon all the business of their regiments, a privilege —.nods .i.imulated the enthusiasm and zeal of all. By this Imethod Lord r ruzroyaoquired an exact knowledge of the moral . state of each regiment, rendered his own office important and gracious with the army, and with such discretion and judg ment that the military hierarchy was in nomanner weakened. All the 'daring.young men were excited, and, being none ,quainted with the political difficulties of their General, anti cipated noble triumphs, which were h a ppily rea li ze d." 1 • Such were the services rendered by Lord Raglan .on the staff of the Duke of Wellington ; and, although these duties prevented him from taking as active a part as some other men in the actual operations of the army, he had no incon siderable share in the successes of those .triumphant years which terminated- the last war, and not -exempt from the -risks to which liis , brilliant personal courage exposed him, he lost his left arm .upon the field of Waterloo. With such experience, no man was better qualified to fill the office of Military Secretary at the Horse Guards, which he held under Lord Hill and the Duke of Wellington for 25 years. He administered the system which then governed, and still to a great extent continues to govern, that depart. ment, with uprightness, justice, and an astonishing personal knowledge of the interests and feelings of the army. His -associations and : his prejudices were identified with that system, and it cannot be kid to his charge as a crime that he .did not foresee or-carry into effect the changes which a peace of almost half a ,oentury required. Bred in the highest -school of Tory politics, trained under the Duke of Wellington, : and attached by birth and education to the most exclusive branch of the British aristocracy, it may -justly be said of ',Lord Raglan that the suavity of his temper, the exquisite fascination of his• manners, the moderation of his character, --and the excellence his heart mitigated the effect of opinions which might have rendered a less kindly and amiable man arrogant and unjust. The spirit of this age is opening to wider competition the honours and duties of the public ser ,vice, whether in the toils of war, in the civil offices of the State, in Parliament, or in society. A large .ambition ani mikes the mass of the community, and the power by which .empires are conquered or ruled will assert its authority in whatever rank in life it maybe born. But, by 'whomsoever these duties may hereafter be performed, on whomsoever this responsibility may devolve, the interest and honour of the nation require that the samerules of action be observed, and we Anow of no higher standard of the art of government than those qualities of truth, disinterestedness, and self-control which form the character of am English gentleman. Of these qualities Lord Raglan leaves the world a most conspicuous example. Lord raglan left England with a full consciousness of the dangers to which a man of his advanced years was exposed in war by the influence of climate, even more than by the casual ties of battle. We remember to have seen at the time a private letter from him to one of his nearest relatives, in which he expressed with a soldier's piety, but with a -soldier's courage, the feelings of a man who, under Providence, tenders his life for the service of his country. But, in war, which costs so many thousand lives of the young and the strong, it would ill become the leader of such a host to be chary of his own. Indeed, upon the field of battle, when the maddening excitement of the fight rises to enthusiastic contempt of danger, Lord Evian exposed himself to excess; he dashed . across the Alma in the midst of the Russian fire with the gaiety of a foxhunter ; he was the first to come on the Russian convoy on the flank march, and to ride under Are down the defile of Balaklava; at Inkerman, when he ordered the 18- pounders to be brought.ap which decided that bloody day, he stood under a shower of balls. Not such, however, was his end; he sank under the exhaustion of his physical powers by disease., but his life is closed by a death not less glorious than ,if he Itad fallen in battle, for he has fallen at the post of danger apd of duty.

Lord Raglan write; on 19th June : _ On 17th, at daylight, a very heavy fire was opened from all batteries in English and French trenches, and maintained throughout the day, and the effect appeared so satisfactory, that it was determined that the French should attack the Malakhoff works the next morning, and the English should assail the Redan as soon after as I might consider necessary. It was at first proposed that the artillery first should be resumed on the morning of the 18th, and should be kept up for two hours, for the purpose of destroying any works which the enemy might have thrown up in the night, and of opening passages through the abattis that covered the Redan, but on the evening of the 17th, it was intimated to me by General Pelissier that he had determined, upon further consideration, that the attack by his troops should take place at three the following morning. The French, therefore commenced their operations at daybreak, and as their several columns came within range of the enemy's fire, they encountered the most serious opposition, both from muskets, and the guns in the works, which had been silenced the previous evening, and observing thisaj was induced at once to order our columns to move out orrhe trenches upon the Redan. It had been arranged that detachments from the Light, 2d, and 4th Divisions, which I placed for the occasion under the command of Lieut.-General Sir G. Brown, should be formed into three columns ; that the right one should attack the left face of the Redan, between the flanking batteries; that the centre should advance upon the salient angle; and that the left should move upon the re-entering angle formed by the right face and flank of the work, the first and last pre ceding the centre column. The flank columns at once obeyed this signal to advance, preceded by covering parties of Rifle Brigade, and by sailors carrying ladders and soldiers carrying wool-bags ; but they had no sooner shown themselves beyond the trenches than they were assailed by a most murderous fire of grape and musketry. Those in advance were either killed or wounded, and the remainder found it impossible to proceed. I never before witnessed such a continued and heavy fire of grape, combined with musketry, from the enemy's works, which seemed fully manned. The superiority of our fire on the day we opened led both General Pelissier and 'myself and the officers of the Artillery and Engineers of the two services, and the armies in general, to conclude that the Russian Artil lery fire was in a great measure subdued, and that the opera tion could be undertaken with every prospect of success. The result has shown that the resources of the enemy were not exhausted, and that they had still the power, either from their ships or their batteries, to bring an overwhelming force upon their assailants whilst the direct attack upon the Redan was proceeding. Lieut.-General Sir R. England was directed to send one of the Brigades of the 3d Division, under Major- General Barnard, down to the Woronzou ravine, with a view to give support to the attacking columns on his right, and the other Brigade, under Major-General Eyre, still further to the left, to threaten the works at the head of the Dockyard Creek. General Eyre was very seriously engaged, and he took a churchyard and some houses within the place ; but as the town front was not attacked, it became necessary to withdraw his Brigade a't night. I brought up the Ist Division from the vicinity of talaklava as a reserve, and I shall retain them on these heights. The Sardinian troops under General Marmora, and the Turkish troops under Omar Pasha, crossed the Tchernaya on the 17th, and occupied positions in front of Chorgouna. They have not come in contact with any large body of the enemy. lord Raglan praises in eulogistic terms Major-General Sir J. Campbell, Colonel Shadforth, and Colonel Yea, all killed; Captain Peel, wounded ; Lieut.-General Sir R. England ; Major-General Eyre, wounded ; Lieut.-Colonel Tylden, very severely wounded ; Sir G. Brown and Major-General Sir Harry Jones, latter wounded. By the next mail, Lord Raglan will name the officers who have been particularly mentioned to him. Admiral Lyons, under date of 19th, incloses a letter from Captain Lushington, giving details of the proceedings of the Naval Brigade in the attack on the 18th. Lord Roglan hav ing accepted the proposal to carry the ladders, four parties of 60 men were told off, and placed under Captain Peel, to accompany the four columns ordered for the assault. Captain Lushington states that the men had the ladders placed in their places, in spite of the most murderous fire he ever wit nessed. Captain Peel led one party, and Lieutenant Caver the other. The other two columns did not advance, and consequently those ladder parties, although exposed to a severe fire, did not suffer much. A very heavy fire was kept up from the batteries with admirable precision, until Lord Raglan ordered it to be slackened. The enemy's line of battle ships did not fire, but the steamers did. In a second despatch, dated .Tune 19th, Sir E. Lyons reports a nightly attack on the sea defences of Sebastopol. On the night of the 16th, a heavy shower of rockets was poured in without any casualty. On the night of the 17th, the firing was renewed, but with some loss. Casualties on 18th, H.M.S. Princess Royal, four men wounded ; H.M.S. Miranda, Captain Edmund Lyons, very severely wounded by a piece of shell in the calf of the left leg, sent to Therapia Hospital.-17th, H.M.S. Sidon, one killed and 12 wounded. Return of the casualties in Naval Brigade on 17th June : Nine wovdded, six contused. Return of casualties in Naval Brigade on the 18th :—Killed lieut. S. C. Kidd, of the Albion, and 13 men ; wounded, -Capt. William Peel, of the Leander; Lieut. Dalyell, of the Leander; Lieut. Cave, of the Diamond ; Mr. H. Wood, Mid •shipman, of the Queen; Mr. Parsons, Mate, of the Dauntless, and 10 men; missing, one ; total casualties, 62. -Admiral R. S. Dundas, on 21st, encloses a letter from Rear-Admiral Seymour, reporting proceedings in examining the Bay of Narva. Admiral Sey mour arrived off Narva Light-house at 2 30, a.m., on the 18th. He writes that the entrance of the river is narrow with a bar. A considerable number of troops were in active movement; a large caisson formed the means of communi cation on either side of the river. A few wood vessels and river craft only were visible. The banks were well adapted for defences . by troops ; an earth battery of 12 guns lies on the 'east side of the river entrance, and one of 10 guns near the Light-house, with another in the rear, and two other guns on the right extremity of the Light-house Battery. The Pincher and Snap, gunboats, under Captain Hall, of the Blenheim, who added a 68-pounder to the Pincher, made good practice, untilethe squally weather interfered. The Fort guns were well served with hot shot. The weather clearing, the gun-boats opened fire. The Blenheim and Exmouth likewise had aconpleofthours' practice, as enough hadbeen done to occupy the attention of the troops in the neighbourhood, and no ad vantage offering for a longer continuance in Narva Bay. The - firing Wa&discontinued, and the vessels returned. Captain Searle, Royal Marines, of the Blenheim, received a contusion. of the left side from a splinter. [Further ',particulars of the assault on the Redan and Mulakhoff kßatteries will be found in our 6th page.] THE BALTIC. By the explosion of the infernal machines on board the Exmouth, Admiral Seymour was severely injured, especially in the left eye ; Captain Louis is both legs and thigh ; others more or lest; injured. They are all doing well. On the 21st of June the Amphion mistook a channel near Sweaborg, and grounded. The forts opened, and four shots struck her, killing one man and wounding two others. Capt. Key returned the fire, blew up a large powder magazine, and did other serious damage. OPENING OF THE FRENCH CHAMBERS. Year ended June 30, 1855. SPEECH OF THE EMPEROR. Pears, Monday. In opening the Chambers, the Emperor delivered an address to the following effect : " The conferences at Vienna have unhappily not resulted in Team. I.come then to make a new appeal to your patriotism. " The conferences have justified the conduct of the allies, and evinced their moderation. " Propositions, which I will call magnanimous, on account ,of their disinterestedness, have been made by us and rejected. " We are still expecting of Austria the execution of her en gagements, -which were to render the alliance offensive and defensive; and should negotiations not lead to a peace, the admirable devotion of the army and navy will soon, I hope, bring about that result. You will continue to give the means of carrying on the war. "I had intended to place myself in the midst of the army, where the presence of the Sovereign would not have failed to produce a happy influence, and where I should have been wit ness of the heroic efforts of our soldiers. I should have been proud to be able to direct them ; but grave questions abroad, and important measures at home, force me with regret to abandon the project. "No extraordinary levy will be requisite. Let us have confidence in God, and persevere, so shall we arrive at a peace worthy of the two great nations." THE FUNDS. English Funds were inanimate all day, and sustained a slight decline. In Railways an excess of sales, and prices re ceded from ss. to 10s. per cent. Land, Bank, and Foreign Stocks quiet, and weak at our quotations. CLOSING PRICES. ___.... ....—.

The royal assent was given by commission to a number of bills. Lord P& ea brought up a message from the Queen, recommending their lordships to concur in any measure for providing for the widow of Lord Raglan, and for Richard Henry, his eldest son. The Lord Chancellor having read the message, Lord PAN. MUSE moved that it be considered to-morrow. A short discussion took place on the subject of tickets of leave granted to convicts, in which Lord St. Leonard's,' Earl Granville and others engaged. The Accidents on Railways' Bill passed through committee —A discussion took place on the question that the 2nd clause, which relates to the crossing of levels, stand part of tire bill. The clause was carried by a majority of five. The house adjourned at seven o'clock. HOUSE OF COMMONS. MONDAY. The house met at four o'clock. The SPEAKER proceeded to the House of Lords to hear the royal assent given, by commission, to a number of public and private bills. SUNDAY TRADING Lord GROSVENOR said, as there was no hope of passing the Sunday Trading Bill at this late period of the session, par ticularly after the strong opposition it had caused, and not wishing to keep up the present state of excitement upon such a subject, be would withdraw the motion. Mr. OTWAY congratulated the noble lord on the course he was about to adopt, but said he attributed much of what had occurred to the vacillation of the Home Secretary. He asked the right hon. gentleman whether he intended to liberate the 104 persons who were in prison for having been in Hyde-park, where they had a right to be. Sir G. GREY said he did not know to what the hon. gentle man referred, when he spoke of vacillation; the bill was not a government bill. But he asserted that the people who had assembled in Hyde-park had no right to meet there for the purpose of making a disturbance and disorder. He wits asked whether he intended to liberate the 104 persons who had been taken into custody ? He had to say, in reply, that only 71 were reported to him as having been apprehended by the police upon the charge of riotous and disorderly conduct; the remainder were composed of pickpockets, whom it would be an unusual exercise of the prerogative to release. As to the 71, he should not, under present circumstances, interfere. Mr. DIINCOMBE inquired whether the right hon. gentleman had received a report from the police magistrate respecting the disturbance yesterday, and whether he would lay such report upon the table ? He also asked whether there had not been a collision between some soldiers and police ? From all that he had heard, he was satisfied that the police had behaved in the most shameful manner. __ After a few observations from Mr. WILKINSON, Mr. W. J. Fox asserted that the case was, one which, in all its circumstances, required that a strict and searching enquiry should be made. Sir G. GREY said he had received a report from Sir Richard Mayne, so far as the police were concerned, which he should have no objection to produce, but any enquiry must, in the first instance, be made before the magistrates, at the • police courts. If, after that enquiry, there appeared to be other points upon which further investigation was required, it should be made. From the report which had reached him, he had no reason to believe that the police had acted in the manner described. Some soldiers were in the crowd, and the police removed them to their barracks ; their commanding officers had expressed their obligations to the police for the manner in which they had acted. He had no reason to believe that any loss of life had taken place. Mr. ROEBUCK called attention to the fact that, in conse quence of a riot in the park, Lord R. Grosvenor was refraining from a course of conduct which he had laid down for himself. Now, it was extremely injurious to the character of the house for any member to enter upon a course of conduct, from which he was driven by threats. The house went into committee on the Education (Scotland) Bill, and on proceeding with the consideration of the 14th clause, Mr. HADFIELD moved that the Chairman report pro gress, with the view of getting rid of the bill ; but he was eventually prevailed upon to withdraw the motion. Mr. ELLIOTT LOCKHART then moved the introduction of words in the clause, with the view of providing for the intro duction of a clause at a subsequent period, that the clergy of the Established Church should have the superintendence of the schools in all matters in which religious teaching was conerned. The Lord Advocate opposed the motion, and it was sup ported by Mr. F. Scott. After some debate the committee divided — For the motion Against Majority for —(The result was received with cheers ) The LORD ADVOCATE said, these words only prepared the way for giving the power of superintendence, and they had so far done no harm ; but he should certainly oppose any'clause to that effect when it was proposed. . 98 . 94 .11r. E. LocKHART neat moved the introduction of the words, "In regard to his sufficiency for the office in respect of literature. Also with the view just stated, the committee divided, when there appeared— For the motion Against ...... Majority 97 -0. The Chairman, according to the usual practice in such cases, voted with the ayes, in order that the house might have an opportunity of deciding the question. . ... . The clause was then weed to. On clause 15, a provision was moved and agreed to, to the effect that, every schoolmaster produce a certificate from some minister of the denomination to which he belonged, attesting his religion and moral character. Mr d BaucE then moved the omission of the whole clause, on the ground that it afforded no security for religious teaching. After a long debate the committee divided, when there appeared— _ _ _ For the clause Against ......... .109 - 86 . .. -23 Majority for The clause was consequently carried. On the 19th clause, it was proposed by the LORD ADVOCATE, to omit cerfain words to the effect that, it should be in the power of a majority in every parish to decide that the schools be established. Mr. BLACKBURN opposed the motion. The committtee then divided— For the motion Against M4ority for 40 -33 On clause 25, Mr: VASITTART moved that the salaries of schoolmasters should be no less than £35, instead of £5O on the clause.. Some discussion took place on this question, and when the committee divided the numbers were — For the motion Against it Majority against . 36 . 96 -60. The salary consequently stands at no less than £6O. On the 27th clause, Mr. SMOLLETT proposed the omission of the words enacting that the religious instruction to be given in all parochial and public schools under the bill, should be in accordance with that heretofore in use in the parochial schools. The LORD ADVOCATE said he had no objection to the words themselves, but he considered their introduction very unde sirable. This intention would amount to over legislation. Mr. BLACIEBITEN snpported th:meotion. The committee then divided, and the numbers were— For the motion .......... ..... 38 Against Majority against —ss Mr. A. HAST IE (Glasgow) then moved the omi ss i on o f th e clause, on the ground that it was injudicious to permit the interference of government in religious education, and he added that he had no difficulty in taking this course, because the bill would work equally well without the clause. Mr. HADFIELD and Mr. Mime supported the motion, and Lord W. GRAIIAM opposed it. On a division, the numbers were— For the clause ... Against it......... Majority for ...87 ... -8 Mr. HInzIELD then moved that the chairman report pro gress, contending that with such majorities as had been ob tained on several important questions, it would be impossible the bill could pass. The motion was, however, withdrawn. On clause 38, the Loan ADVOCATE proposed a provision bringing Reformatory Schools to a certain extent within its operation. _ _ Mr. BLACKBURN opposed the proviso on the ground that it was irrelevant to the object of the bill. The proviso was, however, added, upon the question that the clause stood part of the bill. The numbers were — For the clause Against Majority for The clause was consequently agreed to. The remaining clauses were then agreed to, and the bill was reported. -126 ...• ... -74 Sir J. PA.EINGTON moved that the order for resuming the adjourned debate on the Education Bill which he had brought in be discharged, observing that there was no chance of the measure being carried this session, whilst the divisions, under present circumstances, would be taken at a great disadvantage. At the same time he expressed an earnest hope that in the next session this question would be finally settled upon the principles of the measure now withdrawn. After some observations from Mr. HADFIELD and Lord J. RUSSELL, the bill was withdrawn. The other bills—those of Lord J. Russell and Mr. Gibson— were withdrawn. In the course of the discussion, Lord J. Russ= stated that he should be prepared to propose next session the ap pointment of a Minister of Education. Other orders were then disposed of. On the motion that the Justices of Peace Qualification bill be read a third time, Mr. BROTILEETON moved an adjourn ment of the house. The house then divided— For Against Majority for adjournment The house adjourned at 1 35 a.m. ... 27 ... 19 -~ THE SERINGAPATIM, from Melbourne arrived at Bristol, on Sunday, with 20,000 oz. of gold, 60 passengers, a mail, and a general cargo of wool, tallow, and hides. DEMONSTRATION 1N HYDE-PARK.—On Sunday last, ano ther demonstration took place iu Hyde-park, in opposition to Lord Robert Grosvenor's Bill ; and, by half-past two o'clock, there must have been nearly 150,000 men, women, and chil dren present. They conducted themselves most uproariously, attacked the police, who mustered in strong force, and in sulted the occupants of every carr i age or veh i cle that passed. By ei?ht o'clock, the i mmense crow d b egan to disperse,but not till no fewer than 104 of the rioters had been taken to the cells of the Police-station. Several were severely injured, but no lives were lost. There was no public business at either the County or Bankruptcy Courts yesterday. AT the Police-court, on Saturday, Robert Dmidewall was of stealing committed for trial on a chargesilv er spoons f rom the Adelphi Hotel.
