The following appeared in our later editions of yesterday : The English funds opened steadily at the firm prices of yesterday, and subsequently experienced an improve ment, which was not maintained. The news from India of the danger of famine in the north-western provinces, from the long-continued drought, tended to check the buoyancy of the consol market. In the foreign exchanges the rates were about the same as last post. Gold is 1-10th per cent. dearer in Paris than in London, and 3-10ths per cent. dearer in llamburgh than in London. The railway market closed with a dull tendency. The sum of £73,000 in Australian gold was sent into the Bank. — Tunes. Although the exchanges are firm, the money market easier, gold still flowing into the Bank, and the weather tolerably satisfactory, the funds have been heavy. A certain effect is produced by the fear of fresh complica tions in Italy, which is also occasioning dulness on the Paris Bourse, but the immediate check to the upward course of the funds has arisen from the preparation for next Thursday's settlement. The speculators for a fall, who have been buying back in some haste during the last two days, appear now to have covered themselves. Consols closed k per cent. lower than yesterday. The movement in the other departments of the Stock Exchange was to a moderate extent. The discount market was well supplied with money, and the best bills having two months to run were taken at 34 per cent. The bills due appear to have been very well met, notwithstanding the check which has been given by the unfavourable season to the sale of many kinds of goods.—Daily News. The LONDON COLONIAL PRODUCE MARKET to day was rather quiet, but steady. Sugar : The market was rather more qUiet : 5,800 bags Siam were part sold at 42s 6d to 46s 3d for middling to fine strong yellow ; 750 boxes Havanna were bought in at 43s to 45s 6d for low middling to fine yellow ; and 6,800 bags Manilla were mostly sold at 37s to 38s. Coffee : There was a fair demand, and the sales went at steady prices. Tea The public sales went at about a par with yesterday's prices, except middling blackish leaf, which was rather lower. Rice : The demand was dull. Saltpetre : The market was quiet, the only sales reported being a few lots of 8 per cent. at 41s 6d. Jute : The sales (4,000 bales) were met with rather better spirit. Pepper ; 100 bags Malabar were taken in at sd, and a lot sold at 41d.

At Naples the arrival . of Garibaldi continues to be calmly, but anxiously, awaited. It seems determined by the revolutionary committee, who are established "en permanence" under the eyes of the Neapolitan Government, that, until his arrival, no movement is to take place in the capital. One telegram announces the resignation of the Ministry—but without being accepted by the King—and the march of Garibaldi upon Salerno. There remaininominally faithful to the:King some 25,000 troops, distributed between Gaeta, Naples, and Salerno, and on them the destiny of the Neapolitan Bourbons now depends. General Bosco, " amongst the faithful only," is at the head of the forlorn hope, and, whatever may be the result of the encounter, the European public will not fail to do 'honour to the one, amongst the thou sands of Neapoliton officers, who has dared to be loyal. We are assured in various quarters that the King has received advice both from Vienna and Rome to hold out to the last extremity, and that he has resolved to act upon it ; but It is devoutly to be hoped that he will likewise aktere to the resolution which he formerly expressed, not to expose his capital to the horrors of a bombardment. From the position of the various insurgent camps, should a pitched battle come off, the' locality of the final collision with the Royal army is already fixed at or in the neighbourhood of Prestum ; but while these these strategetic plans for covering Naples from Garibaldi's approach are under discussion, a courier is said to have come from Rome with Lamo rieiere's scheme of warfare. The ex-Algerine general advises a stand to be made at Capua (which is a strong hold and arsenal), having Gaeta to fall back on, and a junction of his forces with the King's might form a formidable array, against which the rebellion would dash its brains out. The only objection to this plan is the' urgency of the case and the rapidity of Gari baldi's movements, without counting on the instant advance of a North Italian liberating army into Ombria and the Marches. It is stated that in consequence of the refusal of the Prussian Government to permit the Palish language to be used officially, and in schools and churches amongst the Polish population, 'a considerable agitation has become visible in the duchy of.Posen. Count Schwerin has, within the last few days, left 'Berlin for that pro vince, with the view of personally ascertaining the real feeling of the people, and taking the necessary measures to prevent the growth of any serious•disaffection. On Tuesday the . act of parliament which received the royal assent at the close of the session, for facilitating the acquisition by rifle volunteer corps of grounds for rifle pract,ide was firinted. The act, which is not to apply to Ireland, empoieers rifle volunteer corps to pur chase land for practice and accommodation with the assent of the - . Secretary at War. Landlords are 'em powered to convey lands to be used as rifle grounds, and the Chief • Commissioner of Public Works may grant any portion, of the royal parks, &c., for the purposes of the - act ; also may the Commis sioners of Woods and Forests. The officers of the duchies of Lancaster and Cornwall may likewise grant land to rifle corps.* Further, the act provides that cor porations, ju4tices, &c., may grant land, and power is given by the statute to stop up footpaths for the purpose of the act. The Secretary at War, with a view to the service, safety, and convenience of the public, may make bye-laws for the regulation of rifle shooting on grounds acquired or used by any volunteer rifle corps under the provisions of the act, which act is to extend to any rifle corps of vihich her Majesty has accepted the offer of service. The Ludlow election took place on Tuesday, on occasionof the appointment of Colonel Percy Herbert to the Deputy Quartermaster General of the Army. Th e Hon, G. Wiadsor Clive was elected without opposition. From a return issued yesterday it appears that the correct total population of the 201 parliamentary boreughs of England and Wales in 1851 was 7,438,587. The total number of electors on the register (including freeinen) is 451,686, or deducting 8,478 for the univer. sities, 443,208. The number of male occupiers o f houses of a gross estimated rental of 410 and upwards, was 575,889 ; of a and under £lO, 46,426 ; of £8 and under £9, 53,140 ; of £7 and under £B, £6 82,808; ofand under L7, w l a 06,515 ; total male occupiers of Voiles; the gross estimated rental of which is £6 .4124. upwards, 864,778. In the cases of Maryle bone, Finsbury, Lambeth, Westminster, London, Green wich, Hull, Brighton, Bath, and Salisbury, the returns comprise the number of teements from which a deduc tion of 20 per cent. has been made for female occupiers and unoccupied tenements, The returns for Islington and St. Luke's (which was formerly part of Finsbury) do not contain the number of persons occupying tene ments rated to the owners. In the case of Norwich there are 12,162 tenements rated to the owners not included in the return, the rate-books not affording the means of distributing them under the several heads. In Bull there are 11,021 tenements in the same pre dicament. The general result arrived at by the Poor law Board is, that the reduction of the franchise to £6 Would ,mitise a total addition to the number of electors now on the xegister . of 210,022. The total addition shown in the return, No. 124, of last session Was 197,068. The new act on the sale of gas has just been issued. The delays in preparing the models of measures are mentioned, anti-it is declared expedient to defer some of the provisions, and also to amend the act, except as to things done before the passing of this act. Under the authority of the recited statute the time is to be calcu lated as if the nth of October, 1860, had been the date of the passing of the said act. The recited act is not to come into force in any county of England until the magistrates in quarter sessions, or in Ireland until the grand jury, or in Sco,tkand until the commissioners of supply have resolved to bring such county under its operation. The only other provision points out the manner in which forfeitures and penalties are to be recovered. The recited and the present act are to be construed as one. At Shoreditch yesterday morning, a shocking and fatal accident happened to a little girl, named Smith, aged three years, whose parents reside at No. 2, Prince's square, tang-alley, Worship-street, Shoreditch. It ap- • peari that t,he,dece!ised and another child were amusing themselves upon a tfible placed in front of an open win dow, osi the second floor. While they were swinging to a clothes flue, it suddenly broke, Avid the deceased rolled out of the window ea 4 foremost into the street, a distance of thirty feet, on to the pa.y.9ment. The other child was fortunately saved by the mother seizing its frock. A medical gentleman was called, but his services were of no avail. The deceased must have been killed on the spot where she had fallen; the skull having been extensivel , y fractured and forced into the brain. The General Shipowners' Society of London held their annual meeting on. Tuesday afternoon, when the report of the committee in . reference to the late Parlia mentary inquiry was approved. A resolution was also passed, expressing the dissatisfaction with which the meeting regarded the departure of Mr. Lindsay for the 1-Thited States 44 with some vague and undefined authority to communicate with the Government of that country on, subjects of • the highest importance to -British navigation and the interests of British shipowners." The resolution further states that " Mr. Lindsay does not possess the confidence of the British shipping interests, and is consequently peculiarly disqualified for so delicate and important a mission." After this; Mr. Lindsay had better defer his visit to the States. The Yankees will not look with any great favour on an amateur diplomatist coming out with such doubtful letters of recommendation. THE DEATH PUNISHMENT. THE clank of the hammer on bolt and beam for the erection of the dismal scaffold resounds from north to south, and from east to west. The fatal beam casts its dark and dreadful shadow over the land. We read again and again of the solemn procession from the cell to the drop. Another and another wretched criminal quivers for a few minutes before the gaze of assembled thousands. The grim executioner no sooner cuts down one victim than he sets out again on his detestable round from gaol to gaol to perform his repulsive office on the condemned who await his approach. His " professional" visits to our own county have not been few nor far between ; and the day after to-morrow will again witness him at his hideous task ou the old corner of that high dark wall at Kirkdale, where so many have died at his hands. The frequency of dire murders and of executions have not unnaturally given renewed vitality to the question—Ought the death punishment to be retained on the Statute Book; or ought it to be abolished as unjustifiable and inadequate for the prevention of capital crimes ? As the question now presents itself it is not com plicated by the existence of any morbid feeling of tenderness towards the atrocious criminals who have recently suffered, or are about to. suffer, the extreme penalty of the law. It is not pm tended that any of these cases have been attended by circumstances of doubt or extenuation, calling for the interposition of prerOgative to arrest the law. It is certain that THOMAS GALLAGHER, Who is to suffer death on Saturday, designedly and piti lessly murdered an unoffending wife and mother. He might have struck the fatal blow under the influence of a momentary frenzy, and have after wards repented of the deed, when fully aware of its consequences. But no;" even after his appre hension he said to the police-officer, " He wished to CHRIST he had finished her." The atrocious cruelty of the crime, it is admitted in this and in other recent cases, leaves it beyond question that if the sentence of death is justifiable under any circumstances, it has been well merited by such convicts as WILLIAM YOUNGMAN and THOMAS GALLAGHER. It is denied by some, however, that capital punishment is the appropriate penalty of murder ; and the appalling and increasing frequency of the crime is-appealed to as proof that the tcaffold has utterly'failed as an " institu tion " for the prevention of murder. Those who feel desirous of coming to a satis factory conclusion on this important question, must first determine for themselves how far the question as to the propriety or impropriety of capital punishments, ought to be mixed up with or affected by the entirely distinct question of prevention.. The gallows has not and never will, we believe, prevent the recurrence of the awful crime of murder. The first man born of woman was a murderer : no age has been with Out its stain; and while human nature remains what it is, we fear it will ever and anon be found more or less frequently in our criminal calendars. If the propriety of this or any other penalty, therefore, is to be tested and determined only by its power entirely to prevent and extirpate the crime, every scheme that may be propounded will be found utterly inadequate. The reason is manifest. In deal ing judicially,with a murderer we handle only the ripened fruit, and so, far, are not • called upon to take cognisance of the tree that bore it. The law seizes upon the effect while it ignores the .cause. It is not the province of our criminal code to remove the causes which produce the criminal; but to deal with the individual criminal when he has actually transgressed. The punishment has reference chiefly to himself; and only indirectly to society,—first, to prevent his repetition of the offence and subsidiarily to frighten or deter others criminally disposed, from committing the same act. Thus we find that the connection between the two distinct questions of prevention and punishment is only indirect and subsi diary. No mere penalty, punishment, or retri bution will either reform the criminal, or remove the producing cause of crime. The utmost advantage that can be reaped, under the name of prevention, consists in the restraint which may be imposed on men's evil passions by anticipation of the terrible severity of the punishment decreed by the law against the convicted murderer. This restraint can never be sufficiently powerful under all circumstances to prevent crime, however ap palling the known penalty may be ; but it will be more or less operative in proportion to the amount of terror which that penalty is calculated to inspire. If, under the severest and most appro priate punishment for murder, the crime continues to abound, the explanation is to be found in the aggravation of the general producing causes of all cr i mes , and not in the impropriety or, inefficiency of the penalty awarded. Does not every instinct of our nature tell us that the fear of death must exercise even on the criminal mind the most powerful restraint from the commission of murder. It may be all very well to talk of the really heavier, because more protracted, punishment of penal servitude for life; but common sense and the most cursory observation inform ns that it presents compara tively little terror. Without attempting to enter into a detailed proof of this almost self evident truth, we would point to the joiful expressions of gratitude usually uttered by the condemned on receiving commutation of the sentence of death. The unrevealed miseries o the hulks are counted as nothing when offered as an alternative to a violent and . ignominious death at the hands of the common executioner. There still remains the question how far the law that takes away human life is justifiable under any circumstanc.es. Will any of those who deny the right of society to exact the penalty of life tell us what law, natural or revealed, is violated by condemning to immediate death such an atrociouit wretch as WILLIAM YOTJNIaMAN— the matricide and fratricide—the fourfold mur derer? Does not every conscience spurn the idea of such a wretch being maintained even in servitude through his whole life at the public expense ? Upon what ground could such an inhuman creature plead his right to live, and also to be clothed, and fed, and watched and cared for ? Does not society owe it as a duty to itself, in mere defence, to return the fatal blow which such miscreants un mercifully deal upon it, in the person of unoffend ing subjects whom it is bound to protect ? In proportion as we value human life, is it not incum bent on unto effectually remove and destroy those who have shoWn them Selve s. incapable of respect- ing it even when surrounded by the most sacred associations ? Away then with mere plausible humanitarianism and theeretical optimism. It accords with eve ry instinct ,of r i aprp ? and is recorded in the laws of God and ,uum. that ‘.‘ Who so s h e a c ieth nlstY's 1 ?).9 0 4, by man shall his blood be shed." The official gazette of Turin publishes a royal decree notifying a considerable reduction in the Piedmontese import duties on yarns, tissues, &c., of cotton, hemp, and other articles. The Herald says the engagements of the 4th of the month are considered to have been well met, though' ;:epewals have been frequent to meet the pressure of the I Poix.ent, particularly in t he drapery trade. FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. • FRANCE. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, Tuesday, September 4, 1860. 'rhe telegraph will no doubt have ere this announced to • your readers the assumption, by Garibaldi, of . the Provisional Dictatorship of the Two Sicilies, and his intention to arrive in Naples on Friday or Saturday next, to enter upon the duties of that office with the full sanction and concurrence of Victor Emmanuel.. By this time, also, there can be little doubt, Naples is occupied by a considerable body of Piedmon tese troops, for almost every telegram has strengthened the persuasion that the King will retire without waiting the arrival of his redoubtable foe. It is said that the Sardinian Government would willingly have avoided the embarrassment connected with sending troops to Naples until after Garibaldi's arrival, and that it was hoped that the letter of the Count of Syracuse, written with the view of hastening the departure of the King, would have saved the necessity for such a step ; but, as the Count's letter failed in producing the effect intended, and anarchy and all its horrors were immi nent, circumstances left no other alternative open. The menacing attitude of the army of General Lamoriciere and the grave nature of the events expected to take place on the Marches and the Ombria, have rendered it neces sary for the Sardinian Government to concentrate likewise a considerable force on the Papal fron tiers, so that a thoroughly warlike attitude en the part of Sardinia is gradually developing itself. Some details are given by a Naples corre spondent of.the Djbats relative to the proposition made by Francis 11. for the neutralisation of his capital. It is said that, on the evening of the 25th, he assembled at the Castle of St. Elmo the whole of the diplomatic corps to m ake a last attempt to obtain: first, foreign intervention; secondly, the occupation of Naples by the marines of the varioui foreign men-of-war in the Bay ; and, thirdly, the nentralisation of the capital and the country - round about it, to the extent of a league. In these propositions it is added M. Brenier expressed his acquiescence, but that Mr. Elliott, the British Minister, rejected them, declaring that he had no instructions on the subject.' The King, on leaving the meeting, renewed his promise, that, notwith standing his propositions had been declined, there should bg no fighting in the city, but that otherwise, he would resist to the last moment. I now see also that rumours have been revived of a project which was formerly entertained, and suggested in one or two pamphlets, of constituting Rome the capital of a united Italy, and neutralising that part of the city which encloses the Vatican (St. John Lateran), confining His Holiness for the future to the f‘ Leonine city ;" but this latter proposal is not likely to be less unsuccessful than the other. Mgr. de Merode, the Papal Minister at War, departed from Rome on Saturday last, for Terni, in order to have a conference with General Lamoriciere, who has informed his troops that• they nr.ist be prepared to repel an invasion of the Papal territory in the course of next month, and is continuing to do his best to prepare them for the encounter. It is said that Ancona, which I lately told .you had been put into a very complete state of defence, has been fortified in a manner altogether novel., -.Besides the strong outworks and batteries : .' which. :•are formed on the landward side, the generates cansed several screened batteries to be erected along the; shore, so as to protect the.. forts: against a naval bombardment. These fortifications and the smallness of the depth of water:ill - the-only channels by which the forts can be approached,; Will almost entirely neutralise any attaCk -- 4 sea. , The Count d'Aquila is in 'treaty fok . 40: pur chase of a charming residence, in: 'the .Gothic style, situated on the avenue of the Einpres.s; and belonging to M. Handon, the contractor ;for the works of the famous Suez Canal. The, price is to be 1,150,000 francs.: It is now confidently affirmed that .:the - Empress at the last moment shrinks from the fatigue s inseparable from a 4 voyage to Algeria and from the proposed imperial progress through a consider able portion of that colony. .In other respects, however, the programme of 'the voyage will be adhered to. It hasbeen" stated in certain Parisian circles that tire: Eliperor;:bef?re commencing his long journey, called upon the Minister of War fOr 'a list of afi the generals and colonels at present disposable, just as he did before the last war ; and it 'is further said his Majesty has given Orders for the orga nisation, in the 21st military division, of certain corps, to be in constant readiness for being cen tralised on the capital by railway, and for in stant departure, in the event of any occasion arising for their services. These preparations, however .are hardly to be regarded as indicating any apprehension of disturbance to public order, for it is generally remarked th at there has hardly ever been, since the co m mencement of the empire, less chance of anything of the kind ; they are prudent measures adopted with the view of providing against any eventuality. The language which his Majesty himself con tinues to hold on the subject of peace is of the most re-assuring character ; but whether the expressions on this subject in which h e i n d u l ges are the result of an anxiety to disarm suspicion as to his real projects, or the evidence's of their being no real ground for distrusting his policy, it would not be polite in a " Paris" correspondent of a foreign journal, to hazard a positive opinion. The Toulonnais, of the I st instant, supplies some further details of the experiments which are being made with the pgate cuirasse s L a Gl o i re . She was made fast, on the 31 st, to the dynano hmeert epro powers of e r t s h e of ''traction," a i c l ltoi onnand for the purpose o f t es ti ng is to make her last experiments under the eyes of the Commission. The speed of the Oloire has been found to be quite extraordinary. On the Bourse the same absence of excitement continues, but it is curious to note, also, the con tinued firmness of stocks of all kinds. CAPTAIN MAYER'S FETE 'TO THE BOROUGH GUARD. If any one thing more than another tends to cement the bond of union existing among the Volunteers, and to promote the noble and patriotic movement among all classes of the community, it is the hospitality and profuse generosity with which the leaders and promoters of the organisa tion entertain the thousands of men who look up to them for encouragement and countenance. A Week or two since we had the pleasure of- par taking, along with the Company of Volunteers under his command, of the munificent treat given by Colonel M'lver, at his own house. Still more recently we had to record the splendid entertain ment given by George Horsfall, Esq-, at his residence, to the corps connected 'with the Mersey Steel aqd Iron Works. Scarcely had we chronicled the noble treat afforded by the Right lion. the Earl of Derby to the Volunteers of Lancashire, when we find it our pleasant duty to announce another instance of generous hospitality in the same patriotic cause. The handsome and Soldierly Borough Guard could hardly have forgotten the impression made upon them and their fellows-in-arms at Knowsley, when they received an invitation from Captain Mayer, their commander, to a deje . uner at his residence, on Saturday next. Nothing, we say, is more commendable than this conduct; and we hope his example will be followed by the whole of the gentlemen bearing commissions in the great army of Lancashire Volunteers. Pennant's-house is pleasantly situated at Bebb in g ton, on the other side of ,the Mersey, a few miles by rail from Birkenhead; and thither, on S aturda y , we have no - doubt, the officers and Men under Captain proceed, al ong Mayer's command wi ll with numerous ladies and gentlemen from the neigh bourhood vilio have b ee n invited. The afternoon will, we feel assured, be happily spent ; and the respect in which Captain' Mayer is deservedly held by hi s friends and fellow -volunteers will be enhanced through this example of his hospitality.

An enieute has taken place at Tirnova, and a more serious one is apprehended at Philipopoli, where the Russian propaganda is very active. Austria is said to have offered to assist the Porte, in the event of an outbreak in Bosnia. It is again asserted that Christians have been mas sacred at Baalbeck, Bekaa, Confardaram, and in the villages near Jean-d'-Acre. Some anxiety is manifested by the Christians in Palestine. Constantinople is tranquil, but armed Monte negrins arrive there daily. NAPLES. The correspondent of the Tithes, writing from Naples, August 29th, states that a bill was circu lated in the city which invited the people to petition the King to leave before the arrival of Garibaldi. It was supposed that the Count of Syracuse was at the bottom of movement, the alleged object of which was to spare the shedding of blood. Austria, however, had counselled the King to remain till the last moment, and at the above date there was every appearance that the King would adopt this advice. 'The Milan correspondent of the Herald says, that acting upon the advice given at Vienna and Rome, the King of Naples had adopted the despe rate policy of " no surrender." A letter in the Paris Presse, dated Naples, August 30th, says, the pictures, the furniture of the palace, and the treasures of the King, have this afternoon been embarked on board a Spanish vessel. A Vienna despatch states that on the 29th ult. the Austrian Minister at Naples had telegraphed that Francis 11. had resolved to leave his States, the situation having become quite hopeless. NAPLES (void Genoa), Sept. 4. An insurrection has broken out at Sala, where the government of King Victor Emmanuel has been proclaimed. 4,000 men, under the command of General Torre, disembarked at Sapri. Gari baldi, who was last at Palmi, is now marching on Salerno, being supported on the right wing by General Cosenz. There are now eight Sardinian ships of war in the Bay of Naples, with two regiments of bersag- Heti - on board. The GlCabe h a s a,leader on the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway iccident. and blames the rail way authorities for not being sufficiently provided with break power. The following appeared in our later editions o yesterday :--- NAPLES. PARIS, Sept. 4. The only thing talked of to-day, in reference to Neapolitan affairs is, that Garibaldi, attended by a humerous escort of the people, will make his entry into Naples in the course perhaps of two or three days. It is hot stated whether , the King has taken any final resolution in regard to his prsent position, which leaves him no hope of saving his. crown. NAPLES, Sept. 4. Up 'to this moment the King has neither accepted nor rejected the resignation of the Niiniters. Naples is tranquil. NAPLES (v 44 Genoa), Sept. 4. The royal troops are concentrated near. Naples. Placards having been posted up, bearing the words " Long live Victor Emmanuel," several soldiers tore them down. The Lazzaroni became irritated, and a conflict with the soldiers ensued. TURIN, Sept. 4. Signor Farini went yesterday to Florence, and will return on Thursday next. Signor Ganti will leave to-morrow for the Emilian Provinces and Tuscany. The Count of Syracuse is about to proceed to Florence to visit Prince Carignan. He will remain there ten days. The Gazette de Torino, says a despatch received from Naples this morning, states that the King of Naples had presided at a Council of Ministers, at which resistance was resolved upon. The Paris correspondent of the Times says : The expulsion of the King will probably soon be a question of hours. On the news of his flight, or at the latest intelligence of Garibaldi's entrance into the,Neapolitan capital, it is thought highly probable there will be insurrections in, the Papal States, hence Lamorioiere's recent order of the day, directing the Pontifical troops to sack any town that might rise. The Sardinian Govern [gent would not remain a passive spectator of such proceedings as were witnessed last year at Perugia, and an immediate conflict between the Sudipian troops and those of Lamoriciere might in such a case be expected. ROYAL AMPHITHEATRE. Last night Mr. J. Clarke hack an excellent audience for his benefit, and the pieces went off amid much enthusiastic applause. To-night the pieces are " Isabella ; or, a Woman's Life," "A Rough Diamond," and "The Maid and the Magpie," in which Mr. G. Honey, Mr. Cowper, Mr. Clarke, and Miss M. Oliver, will appear. To-morrow night is for the benefit of the clever and charming Miss Oliver. "The Rivals," "The Bonnie Fishwife," and "Mephistopheles," form a most attrac tive bill of fare. JULLIEN CONCERTS AT THE PHILHARMONIC HALL, " 0 wing to the inclement weather on the occasion of the Jullien Festival at the Zoological Gardens, Madame Jullien unfortunately sustained a large pecuniary loss, to the great regret of the numerous friends and admirers of her late husband; and at their su ggest i on she has arrange d to give two concerts at th e Philharmonic hall, on the evening of Friday the 14th, and the after noon of Saturday the 15th instant. At these concerts the celebrated band of the late M. Jullien will male their last appearance in Liverpool ; and the programme will include the choicest and most popular compositions o f Jullien, d'Alhert, and Piince Galitzin, operatic selections, and solos by M. Lavigne and M. Svensden. Prince George Galitzin will conduct the orchestra at both concerts, and the Liverpool public will then have a good opportunity of seeing this remarkable man and of judging of his extraordinary talents, both as a chef d'erchestre and composer. The concert, however, will not be altogether an instrumental one. Miss Poole, our most genuine and genial English vocalist, will sing several new ballads a nd songs, and the cho rus of the Philharmonic Society will introduce to a Liver pool public the "Santa Maria" of Prince Galitzin, Bertniansky's "Sanctus," and several other Russian compositions, which excited so much enthusiasm at the St. James's Hall, in London, last season. We need not repeat our previous remarks relative to the claims 9f M. Jullien upon the musical public, and as the success of the concerts at the Philharmonic Hall will not dtpiend upon "slsiey influences," we hope thit Madame Jullien Will meet with that success which the'grdat services and talenth'of hei late lamented husband naturally .and pro perly entitle her to anticipate. it is un onstood to be her 11 a.iesty7s present intention to 'arrive at IfOlyroOd frot the ziorth ou SatUrday week, the 15th instant, and to remain there until Monday. s No w .

Liverpool may well be proud of her docks and har bour. Little more than a hundred years ago, the dock duties paid at the port of Liverpool amounted to a sum under £l,BOO. Last year, they amounted to the enor mous sum of nearly £400,000. If we take a shorter retrospect—say for a dozen years back—we find that the amount in 1848 was under £200,000; so that in that brief period the receipts have been doubled. Still farther narrowing the range of our retrospective com parison, we find that during the last three years the tonnage and duties have been steadily on the increase, while, strange to say, the number of vessels has been on the decrease, thus : Tear. Vessels. Tonnage. Duties on Duties on Tonnage. Goods. Total. 1858 21,352 4,441,943 £183,637 £164,261 £347,899. 1859 21,214 4,511,969 187,449 179,459 366,999. 1860 21,136 4,697,238 201,032 194,282 397,315. These figures show a steady increase in the duties at the rate of about twenty thousand pounds per annum. 'With these undeniable and most eloquent facts before us, and taking into our consideration the vast and con tinually growing demand for increased accommodation for shipping, along with the remarkable circumstance that the natural approaches from the sea and the bed of the Mersey are yearly widening and deepening from self acting causes, what may we not anticipate in the future development of the port—already second to none in the kingdom ? The past history and future prospects of the port of Liverpool constitute one of the wonders of the world. It appears from a general statement of the affairs of the Docks and Harbour Board, as at 23rd June last, that bonds and assignments have been paid off during the year to the amount of £279,965, and that there i 3 still outstanding £7,593,358. The average rate of interest for the year has been £4 7s. Bd. per cent. After giving effect to sundry floating balances for and against the Board, the debt on bonds and assignments is reduced to £7,653,390, which is apportioned as follows : Expenditure on Works at Birken head in 1858, £31,602 12s.

LIVERPOOL POLICE COURT.-YESTERDAY. (Before Mr. RAFFLES.) HOW MISS JORDAN GOT HER EYE INTO MOURNING! Miss Mary Anne Jordan is a maid of all work and general information, and lives in a public-house in Hurst-street, and it would appear that sometimes she gets paid in other than current coin of the realm. dames Scully keeps a boarding' }lease at 5, Salthouse-lane, and sometimes went to have 11 14 ' beer at the house where Miss: Jordan dispenses her information , For that purpose he went there on Tuesday afternoon, and whether the bitter ale soured his temper or not, it was stated that a " difficulty" took place between him and the maid of all work. The "scrimmage" originated inside, but concluded outside, where a policeman saw him exercise the muscles of his right arm on the left optic of Miss Jordan, and that blue peeper immediately became shrouded with sable. In reply to Air-. Bluels, who appeared for the defence, the offices' flail he sA that transaction as clear as tvso and two nardia v t4 t the female aggravated him very reuch asid welted him with her tongue, which he said was as nimble as an eel, and went every way at one time. Mr. Muck . Was she sober S Yes, she was sober, but he was drunk. The fair complainant with the toil eye, was then examined, and said that the man without any prorogation, gave her a thump in the face. In reply. to, Mrs Bluck, she said there had been some quarrel between her mistress, her daughter, and the defendant, but she had nothing to do with that affair. Mr. B;tick +aid the real faeV of the case were these : The defendant was a boarding s heuie keeper, and formerly used to send some of his boarders t' patronise the public-house where complainant :served; but lately he withdrew his custom from that establishment, and that caused an ill-feeling towards him on the part of the hinds lady and her daughter. He went there theprevione day to ge t a glass of ale, as he had a right to do, but instead of heist served with the liquid, he was served out by the landlady, her daughter and a sailor, who made an attack on him, and they were joined by the complainant, and in defending himself, his arm flew out, and by pure accident his hand went against her eye, and that was how it happened. He called a man named Alexander Baxter to try and carry out this statement; but his worship thinking the assault proved, fined the defendant £2 and costs.
