JULY U. 1856 THE return of commercial prosperity is with us but a prelude to an adverse While along fair weather w set all s, go on rapid the ID ready snugly, usury, " keep a sharp look-out the Bull, " stand " by to let go Consols ;" the Bear, " double reef in three-and-a-quarter per cents " Exchequer Bills and Bank Stocks ;" the stag, " cut " away at railway shares ;" and to the Lame Duck, " haul up the slack of the market." These are the orders which are generally given in a hurricane on land, and they have answered remarkably well, considering that they have only starved a few millions of the Irish peasantry to death, and have left us with no more than one in twenty of our population paupers in receipt of parochial relief. Against this we have, however, to set off the many millions accummulating by the few experi enced commanders, who have successfully com bated the storm, and who, if they have lost their ships, never deserted a wreck while there was anything left standing on the deck, or a pound's worth to be picked up among the rocks on the beach. This class of men are not to be despised after at all. Hawks and buzzards must live as well as robins and doves. The only thing to be lamented is, that vultures should exist in human form, and that they and their kindred tribes cannot be induced to imbibe the milk of humanity, and to cherish the common instincts of patriotism—that they should seek in the national disasters of a season of panic, that harvest which belongs to legitimate enterprise, great commercial risks, unremitting anxiety, and ceaseless toil. But here we will leave the great panic monarchs to their meditations, and return to the old pilot with his rat-eaten chart—we mean, as a matter of course, the Bullionist, who, when called on for counsel is invaribly found with a mass of most cruelly delapidated statistics for his guide. Men of his class can steer without a com pass, pitch a yarn which makes the hair of the uninitiated stand up right ; but when asked to prove that they are not stuck fast in the mud, bumping upon a rock, or standing high and dry, they begin to moralise with the outraged sufferers, and tell them, that " those Radical newspaper " Editors know nothing about currency, banking, " trade, or commerce—that " they" are not to " be trusted"—and that if they would only " throw " them overboard, the old bullion tub would float " again." They will give us anything in the shape of pleasure or punishment, but reliable statistics. These they have not got, and yet they preach to a great commercial community on matters affecting their daily existence, as though they had unerring figures before their eyes, and could balance the state and mercantile ledgers without a show of loss or injustice on any side. They will prove to us how much we import and export, as that shows the amount of taxation we can bear, but they will not satisfy us as to the quantity of bullion in the country, because that would enable us to decide the rate of discount we ought to pay in trade. They will not do this, because they cannot. We have no such thing as a periodical return showing the aggregate reserve of bullion held by all the private and joint stock banks in the kingdom. We get a statement of the issues of all the banks, but we are only allowed a return of the gold and silver held by the Bank of England, and the Irish and Scotch banks; notwithstanding, the entire prosperity of the three kingdoms is based on the amount of our bullion reserves. Haw can men pretend to defend the principles embodied in our monetary legislation, if they have not the necessary returns to enable us to judge of their practical operation ? We are now " take in a left to cull our information from a variety of private and other sources, which have little to recommend them, beyond their' gratuitous and general acceptation. And what knowledge do these give us? Messrs. HAGGARD and PIXLEYS circular states that the quantity of gold and silver exported for the six months, ending June 30, 1856, amounted to 6,489,7401 ; to which is to be added 3,471,6001., shipped to France, as shown by the Customs' Returns. But of these large shipments full two-thirds consisted of silver; so that the export of gold for the half year could not have far exceeded 3,500,0001., against which we have to place unusually large imports of the precious metal—of which we have no official record,—and yet the returns-of the Bank of England show an increase of 2,253,6151. only, as compared with the last weekly return of the previous half year. The bullion held by the Trish and Scotch Banks has only increased to the extent of 332,3711 within the last six months, and here ends all our infor., mation on the subject. We might, after an immense amount of labour,be able to form a rough egtimate of the quantity of gold imported; but is this business-like—is it reasonable or decent to leave a country, ruled by bullion, so completely benighted ? While we are made to pay for commercial accommodation according to the quantity of gold held by our Banks, the most critically correct returns ought to be given to the public. We are now enjoying the blessings of returning confidence, and progressive activity in trade; but how are we to tell when to slacken sail, and prepare for a storm, if we have no perfect and unquestionable beacon to warn us of the coming danger? We are not surely to rest satisfied with what we see taking place in the Bank of England alone, or by what interested jobbers and other speculators may vouchsafe to tell us. We must have some more solid and trustworthy data before we can consider the little information given to the merchant and trader any thing beyond " a mockery, a delusion, and a snare ;" and we would have those who can tell within a month how and when the next panic is to come prepare themselves fora change, which the pressure of popular opinion will demand when the tocsin of commercial prostration ia next sounded. If we are to be prostrated and beggared, let us see the real cause of our misfortunes, and give us facts which will enable us to avoid them for the future. This is not too much for a commercial people to ask in the nineteenth century. THE OLIVER LANG —Yesterday we announced, on the authority of the marine telegraph, that the Australian packet-ship Oliver Lang, was off Holvhead at five o'clock on Tuesday evening, and that her arrival in this port was hourly expected. - Up to the present time, no further intelligence has reached. We are assured, on enquiry at the office of the marine telegraph, that her numbers had been correctly reported, and, therefore, her non-arrival is unaccountable. The owners of the Oliver Lang, Messrs, James Baines and Co., at twelve o'clock on Wednesday night, despatched a steamer to look for her and bring up the mails, but the steamer returned yesterday afternoon without having been able to find any trace of the ship. THE NENAGH RIOT —NENAGn, Wednesday.—The town is quiet to-day. It is said that the militia, who were taken with arms irt their hands, will be tried by the civil authorities. A great many deserted last night taking with them their guns and appointments. The firing at nine o'clock last night in Pound street was terrific; it was there all the damage was done. The soldiers of the line acted very imprudently : they were firing into nearly every at one side of the street, and there is a feeling of universal indignation against them for killing the inoffen- MONETARY AND COMMERCIAL, LIVERPOOL, THURSDAY EVENING The Liverpool Cotton Market has been tolerably steady to-day, and a fair amount of business has been done, the sales amounting to 8,000 bales, of which 2,000 have been taken for speculation and export. Prices are without change. The amount of business done in the Share Market has been small, and the tone of the market quiet, closing at the following quotations :—Aber deen, 141 15.

On the Bth inst. the price quoted was 133 f, and offers of 132 f were refused by the holders. Former prices ruled at 118 f, 120 f and 112 f. Holders of best qualities are demanding 130 f and 1371. The candle manufacturers at Lyons, in consequence of this rise, have ordered largely from Marseilles and London. The market at Paris likewise exhibits a tendency to rise, particularly for the finer qualities of tallow. Accounts from Hamburg state that, during the last month, there have been numerous arrivals at that port of American vessels laden with rye, which is immediately landed and conveyed by railwily to the Selesian provinces of Prussia, where a scarcity of this article exists. Amongst these vessels, one had come direct from Philadelphia with a cargo of 16,735 bushels of rye, which was all sent by railway to Prussia. Letters from Berlin state that in consequence of the number of limited liability companies forming in that city, which do not require any special con cession from Government, the Minister of Finance has resolved upon placing them under the sur veillance of public authority. An ordinance to this effect has been framed and despatched to the King at Marianbad to receive his sanction. The feeble condition of the Paris Bourse, ani the announcement yesterday of the stoppage of a French hanker, have increased the flatness of the English Funds. Still, it cannot be said that prices have a downward tendency. Beyond an or + per cent, there has been no important variation during the last few days, and, all things considered, the market is very firm. This being account day, the dealers are occupied in making the usual arrange ments. Consols closed at 94 to 951. The Money Market at the present moment, is in a rather anomalous position. In Lombard-street, two and four months' bills together have been discounted at 38, and four months' bills alone at 4 per cent; and the supply of capital is so abundant that there is some difficulty in finding full employment for the means at the disposal of the bankers and others. Notwithstanding this, however, the Bank of England minimum rate remains at 41 per cent, no alteration having been made at the " parlour " meeting held to-day. Shipments of gold continue to be made to the continent• The sums ascertained to have been taken for that quarter yesterday comprise about 20,0001., forming the residue of the late arrivals from the United States, and 8 0001 brought in by the Bristow, from Adelaide. About 10.0001. was &so taken from the Bank on Tuesday. The 40,0001. in specie brought in by the Ericsson, from New York, was seat on to Havre. The Railway Share Market is quiet, and prices exhibit scarcely any change. Some of the principal lines are slightly depressed, but there is no general movement of importance.

THE COURT Her Majesty the Queen, accompanied by the King o the Belgians, and the Duchess of Kent, the Princess Charlotte of Belgium, the Duchess of Cambridge, and the Princess Mary, Prince Oscar of Sweden, and the Count of Flanders, and all the royal children, reviewed, on Wednesday morning, the Crimean Battalions of the Foot Guards, from the balcony of Buckingham palace, as the troops marched through the enclosed space in front of the palace, on their route to Hyde park. The Prince Consort went from the palace to join his regiment, the Grenadier Guards, in Hyde park, and to receive the Queen upon her arrival• Her Majesty left Buckingham palace with a numerous party in procession for Hyde park, about ten minutes past one o'clock. Her Majesty and the illustrious party returned to Buckingham palace at half past two o'clock. The King of the Belgians took leave of the Queen on Wednesday afternoon, on his return to the continent. The King was accompanied by the Princess Charlotte and the Count of Flanders. The Queen, with the royal family, accompanied her royal uncle to the grand entrance, and there took leave of the King, the Princess, and the Count of Flanders. Prince Albert went with the King in his carriage to the Brick layers' Arms station of the South Eastern Railway, and, after the departure of his Majesty for Dover, returned to Buckingham palace. The Prince and Princess of Prussia have just arrived at Buckingham Palace on a visit to her Majesty. THE AidearcAN MAIL.—The Persia sails for New York to-morrow afternoon. Letters will be received at the Post office until one o'clock, with late fees until two, and at the Landing-stage, with extra fees, until three o'clock. A company has been formed at Constantinople, with Messrs. Cunard and Mac!vet' at its head, for the construc tion of a dock, with patent slips, on the Bosphorus. At present there is not a single dock where the slightest repairs can be made. STRANG& AFFAIR.—The following notice was posted in the Underwriters'-rooms, yesterday :—" Iffracombe, Bth July. A writing desk, containing a freight list of the Alberta Bunsen, from Bombay to Liverpool, in 1851, has, this day, been picked up at Earl of Bute Point." THE GUARDS.—Yesterday m.Nrning, at an early hour, the Guards arriv d, per special train, from London, at the Lime-street station. They immediately proceeded to the Landing-stage, vs hen they went 0? board the Indus, and, immediately after their embarkation, steamed off for Dublin, at half-past six o'clock. THE BROAD AND NARROW GUAGES.—The bill of the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton Railway Com pany, by which this company is rt-lievei for four years from the obligation of laying down the broad guage, has just passed the House of Lords, notwithstanding the opposition of the Great Western Railway Company. \VE,,LEVAN ASSOCIATION SUNDAY AND DAILY SCIrOnLS —Yesterday, according to usual custom, the children, teachers, and friends of the above school., numbering nearly nine hundred, assembled for a day's rural recrea tion. They met at Lime-street station at noon, and left by a special train for Broad Green. On their arrival there, having formed themselves into a goodly procession, and with flags and banners flying, proceeded along the road to 6:,z:rt fley, the seat of Robertson Gladstone, E.“l. Drawn up on the UT.- atitiful lawn in front of the mansion, and with one of nature's fairest prospects of woody slope and fertile meadow before them, they sang the fine old hymn commencing "Praise ye the Lord, 'tis good to raise ;" never, perhaps, sung under circumstances more favourable for its due appreciation. It was truly refresh ing to see the happy smiling faces of the children. upturned to the clear blue sky, and to hear their youthful voices raised in praise to the Great Creator. Upon leaving the lawn the children were regaled with an ample supply of buns, provided by the committee of the schools, and were refreshed by a large quantity of milk, generously given by Mr. Gladstone. They then dispersed themselves over the newly mown fields, where they entered on a variety of exhilarating games and sports, with all the vigour and enthusiasm of youth. At six o'clock they re-assembled on the lawn where, by singing the national anthem, they evinced their loyalty to the Queen, and by three hepty cheers they testified their gratitude to the gentleman who had so liberally thrown open his grounds for their recreation and enjoyment. Again forming themselves into a procession, they returned to Broad Green, and thence by train to Limeltreet, where the tpnititude of little travellers arrived without any mishap 7or accident Occurring to mar the days pleasure. The kindness and attention of all connected with Mr. Gladstone 's estab lishment was mph as to elicit the thanks of all who had the conduct of this festival- LATEST INTELLIGENC SPAIN A despatch from Madrid, dated the 9th instant, mentions that the cholera has happily not made any progress beyond Seville, At Valladolid several workmen had been arrested, and the return to Madrid from that city of the Minister of the Interior, M. Ecosura, had been deferred. The Marquis de Montecastro had been set at liberty. Confident expectations of an adjustment of the differences with Mexico were entertained. FRANCE. (PROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, WEDNESDAY EVENING. You will see by the Moniteur that it is not true that tho Emperor is to have an interview with the Emperor of Austria in Switzerland, or on her frontiers. " There is no foundation," says the official journal, " for the rumours that have been current on the subject." Of course, the grave Moniteur is right ; but it is not a little strange that in well-informed circles the rumours were fully credited. The precise object of the visit of the King of Greece to Germany has given rise to much specu lation. lam told, on good authority, that his Majesty has gone there for nothing less than to see whether he cannot effect his abdication, with out injury to the designs of his good friends, Austria, Russia, and Bavaria. But though he is willing, and even anxious, to subside into private life, his august spouse, who, you may have heard, is more king than he, has sent people with him to beg and pray that his abdication may, on no account, be accepted. Our political circles are occupying themselves a good deal with the question as to who is to succeed M. Portoul as minister of public instruction. M. Dumas, the chemist, M. Le Verrier. the astro nomer, M. Sainte Bauve, the critic, M. de La Guerronniere, the ex-journalist, and some other gentlemen, are named. But the Emperor will decide, and an attendant his decision, specula tion is idle. It is not improbable, however, from what I hear, that the ministry of Public Instruction will be abolished altogether, and its functions be divided between the minis tries of Justice, State, and the Interior. Some newspapers announce the arrival of English and French consuls in the Russian ports of the Black Sea. As regards France this announcement is erroneous, for thus far France has not even nominated her consul. The Count de Morny will, I am told, leave to morrow for Wilbad. After stopping there a short time for the benefit of his health, he is to proceed to Berlin, and from there to St. Petersburg. The directors and workmen of the state quarries of Trelaze, near Angers, which suffered so much in the recent inundations, have, it appears, resolved to erect a monument to commemorate the visit that the Emperor made . them. These workmen were formerly red hot socialists, and only last year got up an insurrection against the govern ment. The Senate yesterday adopted the Senatus Con sultun► on the Regency presented by the govern ment. A telegraphic despatch confirms the news of the complete evacuation of the Crimea by the French on the 6th, and says that Marshal Pelissier em barked that day in the Roland, for France. The Lord Mayor of London has sent another £4,000 for the victims of the inundations. AMERICA. SOUTHAMPTON, TBURSD %Y. The United States mail steamship Arago, Capt. Lines, arrived off Cowes this morning at ten o'clock, en route from New York to Havre. She brinas 26 passengers For Southampton, and 201 for Havre ; also species for England, to the amount of 150,000 dollars; and for France, 550,000 dollars, and 1,500 barrels of flour. On the sth, in lat 46.15, lon. 3345, the Arago passed the Kate Bowley, abandoned, with her hat"hes off, and full of water. By this arrival, we have advices from New York to, exclusive of, the 28th ult. The Asia had arrived, and her political news had caused some excitement. It was believed that Lord Palmerston would be defeated, and there would be no war. In allusion to the state of relations between the two countries, the Journal of Commerce remarks that The dismissal of Mr. Crampton and the Consuls had kindled the wrath of some of the Ministerial jurnals, and thed demanded a victim to their resentment in the dismissal of Mr. Dallas. There existed indications of a movement both in Parliament and the country to apply a strong pressure upon the Government to prevent the adoption of retaliatory measures. Judging from the tone of the friendly addresses which we publish to-day, from citizens of Manchester and Liverpool to the people of the United States, it would seem that they are not without some apprehension of an unfavourable issue of the pending disputes. On this side of the water there is no such apprehension. For we know that neither our government nor people want war, and we cannot believe that after spending 400,000,000 dollars in two or three years war with Russia, England can wish to spend as much more within the next two or three years, in crippling or turning against herself the energies which otherwise would con tinue to play into her hands to fill her coffers. Americans also believe that, unless England desires war for its own sake, she will not force it upon us, without more provoca tion than we have given her, which we hold to be very little. Therefore, Americans are calm and undisturbed, while in England there appears to he much anxiety. Whether they diimiss Mr. Dallas, or retain him, the remark will still be true, that if war ensues, it will come from their side. There are so many reasons why they should not, and so few reasons why they should compel such a conflict, that we "calculate " they will resort to some other and more economical and decent plan of adjustment. We believe that the American Government is prepared to meet them in the most liberal spirit. From Washington under date of the 27th ultimo, we learn that the Senate considered and passed the House Bill authorising the President to cause the Southern boundary of Kansas to be run and marked. Also the bill respecting the harbouring of deserters, and to protect the public interest in regard to the enliattnent and discharge of minors. A message was received from the House announc ing the death of the Hon. Mr. Bayley, of Virginia. There is no prospect of the House concurring in the Senate resolution for the adjournment of Congress on the `21.11 July. An effort will be made to-morrow in the House to force a unal vote on the bill for the admission of Kansas into the Union. From Kanzas, we learn that an attempt had been made to kill the new Deputy Sheriff of Douglas county, Mr. Hansy, who lives in Franklin. Three men came to his house and fired into the window, shooting at his bed, He narrowly escaped and got his gun. They then broke the door open, and as the Abolitionists were about to enter, Hansy shot one of them dead. The rest fled, General Shannon had arrived at St. Louis on the 27th ult., but would return to Kanzas in the course of a week. He reports all quiet in the territory, and authorises the Republic in that he has not resigned, as had been reported. Ex-President Fillmore arrived at Uttica on the 27th, and was received by about 5 000 citizens. He was welcomed to the city by M. M. Jones, Esq , in a neat speech, to which he responded in a very happy vein. The EN-President was afterwards entertained at a public banquet, and his reception is described as most enthusiastic.

Sacramento alone offered to furnish one thousand men. The excitement was on the increase, and martial law had been declared at San Francisco. The committee were determined on carrying out their measures, and continued to make arrests. The opposition. however, were organising, with nine hundred stand of arms.

There was a temporary panic, during which very little business was transacted, except at the Stock Board. When the truth became known, and it was found that the news was quite as peaceful as the most sanguine had expected, and that Consols instead of declining, had advanced h, there was a partial re-action, although shaking nerves cannot be quieted in a moment. The Stock Market fell off under th. misinterpretation of the news to f, but at the Second Board, with increased animation, the decline was fully recovered, with a strong feeling, and Erie was active and buoyant.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT HOUSE OF LORDS.—THIIRSDAY The House met at five o'clock. MURDER BY POISON Lord CAMPBELL drew attention to the recent increase in the crime of poisoning, enforcing the necessity of pro viding some legislative enactments, restricting the sale of the poisonous drugs employed in the commission of such atrocities. After some observations from Lord RAVENSWORTII and the Earl of DoNououbtoux, The Lotto CHANCELLOR reminded the House, that some years since a bill passed restricting the sale of arsenic. It was thought inexpedient. at that time, to draw public attention to other deadly drugs, by mention in an act of Parliament, but as the names and nature of other poisons had become generally known, the Government was now seriously considering the proper means for providing more stringent regulations MILITARY RIOT AT NENAGH. In answer to the Earl of DONOUGEIMORE, Lord PANMURE said it was true that a disturbance had been committed by the Tipperary Militia.

The Butter worth Estate Bill was read a third time and passed. VACCINATION BILL. On the order of the day for going:into committee on this bill, Mr. COWPER adverted to the defects of all the laws which had hitherto been passed in reference to the subject of vaccination. In some cases the districts were much too large, in others they were much too small. The sys— tem of registration was very defective, and a system unless complete was worse than useless. In the present state of the law it was impossible to ascertain who had violated it. and how many cases had been successfully treated. Under these circumstances it was urged that he should direct his attention to a measure which would remedy these and other obvious deficiencies in the exist ing law. He thought it absolutely necessary to adopt such a course, knowing that vaccination was a preventa tive of a most loathsome disease, which carried off one out of every three or four who were attacked with it who, had not the protection of vaccination. The right hon. gentleman having explained the previsions of the hill he had introduced, intimated his intention of withcrawing it. Mr. T. DUNCOMBE concurred in the Course pursued by the Government, and suggested that the subject should be further investigated by a select committee before legisla tionyas attempted._ _ After some remarks from Mr Henley, Sir G. Grey, and Dr. Michell, the later of whom objected to vaccination, and said that if small-pox were properly treated, the, mortality would not be more than three per cent. The order was discharged, and the bill withdrawn. BURIAL ACTS AMENDMENT BILL, In answer to Mr. T. Duncombe, Sir G. GREY said it was not intended to transfer the powers under this bill from the Home Secretary's Department to the Board of Health. He, however, withdrew the bill for the present session.

On the SPEAKER resuming the chair for the evetearg business, Sir G. GREY (in answer to Sir ERSKINE PERRY) WO it was not his intention to bring in a bill to provide a jAdicial tribunal in India with appeal to the Privy Council in England, for the investigation and decision of such claims as the privata rights of the native princes', as were now decided by the executive government, without hearing and in the absence of the parties.

The Cons , ilidated Fund Appropriation Bill passed through committee. APPELLATE JURISDICTION (LORDS) BILL. On the motion for going into committee on the Appel late Jurisdiction (House of Lords) Bill, Mr. RAIKES CURRIE moved, as an amendment, that the bill be committed to a select committee, The hon. member, at great length, entered into the arguments as to the inefficiency of the appellate jurisdiction of the House of Lords, and urged the House not hastily to pass a measure which interfered with the prerogative of the Crown. He knew that the adoption of his motion would lead to a postponement, and would delay the question for six months, but the new Appellate Court was not to sit for six months, and great advantage would accrue from the report of a select committee. Mr. EVELYN DENISON seconded the amendment. Mr. MAttNs opposed the amendment. Mr. CARDWELL drew attention to the unqualified form in which the approbation of the bill, even including her Majesty's Ministers, had been expressed, and urged the necessity of submitting the matter to a select commidee, that the measure alight not pass in its present imperfect shape. Mr. WIORAM considered that the appellate jurisdiction of the House of Lords was in so defective a state as to require immediate alteration, and he therefore deprecated the delay which would take place by referring the bill to a select committee. He concurred in the principle of the bill, which he stated to be to introduce two more lawyers into the House of Lords during the hearing of appeals, and as he looked upon all other parts of the bill as matter of detail, he hoped the House would consent to go into, committee. Mr. GLADSTONE, In opposing the bill, referred to the speech of the Attorney-General, and others of its sup porters, in justification of the vote which he was about to give. He repeated the arguments against the measure, adding; an objection to paid services in the legislature of the country. Lord PALMERSTON defended the measure, and observed that the objection of Mr. Gladstone with retard to pay ment, would go to prevent any salary being paid to the Lord Chancellor. The bearing of the measure upon the prerogative of the crown was clear, while recognising the power to create life peerages. The House then divided, when the numbers were-- For going into committee Against it Majority against the Government 22 The announcement of the numbers was received with vociferous cheering. The Revenue (Transfer of Charges) Bill, and the Encumbered Estates (Ireland) Bill, were read a third time and passed. _ The other business was disposed of, and the House adjourned shortly after one o'clock.

However, when the Emperor goes to mass, on Sundays, the crowds from all parts a ssemble on the way and have saluted him with li ve ly acclamations. The Bi s h op o f S t. Die, on a visit to his Majesty, received him at the door of the church, a nd addressed him in an impromptu speech, to which the Emperor briefly replied. The tow') has the air of a festival every Sunday evening; the Emperor having conceived the design of erecting a grand tent on one of the prome na d es f or t h e purpose of a WI room for th, the soldiers and inhabitants.
