In the LONDON STOCK MARKET 1 o-day Consols opened at 931 to 7-, and continued steady at this price till the middle'of the day, when they declined .to 93i sellers, closing so. The fortnightly settlement in Foreign Stocks commenced to-day, and principally Occupied attention. The Funds closed at the following prices : Consols Money - • _ „ Account Exchequer Bills 3 6 Bank Stock Three per Cents 931 Next Account The following appeared in our later edition % of yesterday : The funds to-day were slightly firmer, but stationary in price. Business was very dull, the explanations promised by Sir C. Wood being awaited. In the share markets the transactions were likewise limited. News of a decline on the Paris Bourse caused some of the markets to close with rather a dull appearance. There was a fair demand for money at the Bank. The pay ment of more than £1,000,000 into the Bank, just effected by the East Indian Railway Company, is equi valent in its effect upon the market to a Government loan of that amount.—Daiiy News. The English funds remain dull. Consols opened at the quotations of Saturday, and experienced no change throughout the day. The final prices from Paris show another decline of I per cent. No bullion operations took place at the Bank. The Africa, from New York, has brought £84,000, and the Seine, from the West Indies, 230,000 in gold,. and £129,000 in silver. The financial letters from Paris seem to indicate that the prevalence of political distrust is greater there than on this side. The Syrian and the Italian questions are viewed with much anxiety, and for the moment the latter is paiticularly watched.— Times.

STEAM PRINTING WORKS, 40, LEIGH-STREET, LIVERPOOL vessels sailing under the Sardinian colours to disembark Garibaldianr, under pain of being fired upon, and has dealt another blow at the Press. It also announces the repulse and dispersal of the party of Garibaldians who landed at Reggio, and that tranquility. pervades the entire kingdom—but both these latter statements emanate from an official source, and are consequently not .trustworthy. A private letter from Alessandro Gavazzi has just bfea published. It is dated from the head-quarters of Gari baldi at Messina, and the writer states that he feels it a part of his old mission to assure the rh g lish people that he and his friends are now fighting for the sole purpose of uniting all - Italy under the constitutional sceptre of Victor Emmanuel. He concludes his communication by declaring that "if there is . no intervention in our -fight ings, we shall arrive (sic) to• crown in the capitol our dear Victor Emmanuel as the constitutional King of Italy." The actual res gester of 'the Tcepli4 interview will probably never be known in our day ; but the most authentic and the only precise account which has yet been, published, of the , result of .the meeting between the Emperor, and the' Prince Regent, is to be looked for in the circular which has just been addressed to the European, Powers by Count Rechberg, -. the Austrian' Minister. There is also an apocryphal account Of a rapprocheinint between Denmark and Sweden, the arrangements for Which 'are 'said to have been nego tiated at Paris. The Merchant Princes of Liverpoal are unequalled; their charity is unbounded : going hand in hand with every great movement, they are always ready to• assist in the amelioration of the condition of sutferinglurna nity. The atrocious massacres in Syria and in ,the Lebanon, which aro now occupying so much attention and evoking so much synipathy, formed, as our readers will perceive, the subject of an highly influential private meeting, which was held yesterday at the Town Hall, under the presidency of the Mayer. From a letter which we have translated and transferred to our columns from the Augsburg Gazette, it-will be observed that these revolting outrageSbhithe part of the'Siiltan's Turkish subjects, are not confined to Syria, bUt that similar excesses and similar oppression are exercised by the Turks against the Christians throughout the whole Of the Empire. It has seldom been our lot as - journalists to print more revolting details of cruelty, brutality and ,i - q - ressiOn . than those which are disclosed in this letter trom Thessalonica; but we believe they have been quite equalled, if nOt exceeded, by instances which have occurred at Ifeyrout, Damascus, and elsewhere: These horrible recitals cannot fail to impress upon everybene volent philanthropist the necessity for immediate action. It is extremely gratifying, therefore, to, find that the movement in behalf of the suffeiers by these atrocities' which was initiated in London, has been taken up so warmly and encouragingly in Liverpool, and we cannot doubt that when the appeal is made by the committee appointed at this preliminary meeting, to the public, it Will meet with a response Worthy of the- inhabitants, and worthy of the cause in aid of which their liberality . is abo u t to b e invoked : , .I =4 : • • ' The Report of the Select Committee on Civil Serte Appointments issued yesterday, testifies more to the difficulties of the subject than to the competency of the committee to come to any cOncliiiykyerdict. The com mittee—of which'Lord Stanley- was the chairman---have directed their inquiries to two: points,: , they have endeavoured to ascertain, first, what has been the'actual working of the ";system 'of junior appointments now force and its effect on the public service ; and, secondly, what proposals for its improvement haVeheen-shwsted by those most competent.to form an opinion. An English officer; serving under Garibaldi, is, it seems, at Anderion'S Hotel, London. for the purpose Of offering advice and guidance to English volunteers who may wish to join the General; which means, of course, i n plai n English, that he,is , recruiting for volunteers. Sportsmen have a very good prOspect generally this season., The game is. plentiful, above an average in some quarters, and reports from the northern districts are highly favourable in regard to the quality of the birds. • ' It is not g very creditable fact, nor one calculated to increase our admiration of the majesty Of the law, that the High Sheriff of Surrey should be in Custody for an offence against the dignity and authority of the repre sentative of the Queen within his bailiwick. Yet so it is. Yesterday morning Mr. William John Evelyn, of Wotton, was, by order of the Lord Chancellor, placed in durance vile and fined £5OO for an•offence directly in contravention of the authority of one of the judges note presiding in the name of the Sovereign at Guildfoid Assizes. • A severe storm on Monday last •burst over the town of Birmingham and the surrounding district. The 'rain descended in vast sheets ; T inmany parts of the town the flooding was immense, and a great amount of damage was done. Much of the . country in the neighbourhood of Tamworth is submerged. The Great Eastern is expected to arrive 'at Milford Haven from New York on the 25th inst: Messrs. Ford and Jackson have been appointed agents for the Great Ship. LSE Sinut Sarittt. In the Liverpool Share Market to-day the tone was very good, and foyers and Midlands - Were particularly buoyant, but London and North- Westerns were flat and somewhat freely offered.

WEDRESDA y, AUGUST 15, 1860, NEWS OF THE DAY. — ln the House of Lords, yesterday evening, the Under- Secretary for Foreign Affairs, in reply to some enquiries by Lord Stratford de Redcliffe, on the subject of Syrian affairs, stated that Admiral Martin had a large fleet at his disposal on the Syrian coast, that the Admiral had received express instructions to protect Smyrna in case of an eutbreak, and that when tranquility was restored throughout Turkey, the European Powers would use every effort to effect reforms in Turkey. It would appear that the apprehensions of an outburst of fana ticism in Constantinople itself, are shared by Lord Strat ford de Redcliffe. At the morning sitting of the Lower House, leave was given to introduce a bill founded on the resolutions ol the previous evening, agreeing to borrow three millions for the service of the Indian Government. In the even ing the subject of educational grants was introduced by Sir J. Pakington, who put in a strong plea for an increase of the allowances to ragged and industrial' schools, which were more in need of such assistance than other classes of schools. The discussion that ensued was of a valuable and interesting nature. Further papers relating to the disturbances in Syria were issued yesterday morning. They include letters from the British consul 4 at Beyrout, Aleppo, Danaascus, Jerusalem, Smyrna, Jaffa, &c., and despatches from Sir H. Bulwer to ',ard J. Russell. There is also a letter of six pages addressed by Mr. Cyril Graham, of Beyrout, to Lord Dufferin, giving a connected .narrative of the massacres. Consul Brant's letters from Damascus, and indeed nil the despatches, implore pecuniary assistance. "I entreat," writes Mr. Brant on the 16th ult., " that pecuniary assistance be furnished me ; I have no means of my own, and the calls on me are so heavy that I cannot long respond to them. I have altogether under my roof nearly 200 people who depend on me for fobd." A letter from Turin, written by a person who has just ,returned thither from Genoa, confirms the state ments current as to the activity of Bertani in preparing and organising several large corps of volunteers for the attack of the Roman States. The writer of it states that on the • night of the 6th inst. a large volunteer force embarked on board the Abbatucci, bound for some point on the Roman coast, and that they were accom panied by Bertani himself, who bad left two well known Genoese merchants to represent him in his absence ; that S. Feroli, of the Piedmoutese bar, has been appointed secretary to the commission for the enrolment of the volunteers ; and that Bertani .was to have a cenference with Garibaldi, to whom h e was t h e bearer of a very considerable sum of money. This latter circumstance would seem to strengthen the report---the accuracy of which is positively vouc h e d for by the Opinion Nationale—of Garibaldi having been seen in Naples or the neighbourhood, whither he had come from Sicily, to have a meeting with his friends and supporters on the mainland. The Goiernment of Naples, in its expiring throes, is at last displaying a little energy, but these indications only betoken the near approach of dissolution, not the evidences of ,any renewal of vigour: Tt has forbidden CRIME AND IGNORANCE. THE Calendar of Prisoners now being tried at the summer assizes here is one . of unprecedented blackness, whether we regard the number or character of the offences committed. The Hon. Mr. Baron MARTIN, in delivering his charge to the Grand Jury at the opening of the court, solemnly declared that iu the course of his whole experience he had never before seen a . calendar containing the record 'of so great an amount of crime. "It is now," continued the learned judge, " only four' Months since - the last assizes were held in this county, and during that short period no less than seven prisoners have been committed for the crime of wilful murder—seven murders had been committed—and from the perusal of the deposi tions, borne of them are of such an atrocious character as I never before heard of. In addition to those seven murders, there are no less-than eleven cases of manslaughter—some of them' nearly ap proaching the crime of murder itself. I, therefore, find that there is this melancholy fact, that dur ing this very short period being only four months—there have been sixteen cases of homi cide, committed in this division of the county. In addition , to tbese cases of homicide there are seventeen cases of burglary, these offences being thus greatly on the-increase.. With respect to. the other cases in the calendar, I beliete that, short • of treason; it contains everj.•description Yitcrime that is known. S uch a calendar," he repeated, " I never saw in the whole course ofiny experience." 4t the opening of the AuguSt session .'of the Central Criminal Court, on Monday last, the Recorder declared that, besides f a deplorably nu merous calendar, "several of the cases were of a more serious character than he ever remembered, during his 'experience in that court." We might, if necessary, add Many more judicial testimonies to the.lamentable,fact, that crimes of the; deepest • dye hive been greatly on- the: ncrease- - of late . in all parts of the country; and . itisonly recentV that we had to refer in this part of our Colum' ! i s .to the dreadful truth, that all over the world the. dismal catalogue of atrocious, crimes.. has been in . our - day continually" SWelling itself out to the most hideous dimensions. Facts, however painful, ought t o b e looked straight in the face. Let us notattenipt to con ceal,to far less exeuse, or make li g ht of that which we, may, dislike to' contemplate seriously, but dare nct deny.. Let us seck.to get at the producing causes, and. 'se e w h at can ' be itnyi,ninadcicssoemr ptaatiii done to remove them.sia s lk o Vh l over tne depraved ie ei ied • by some . vigorous and adequate exertions to remedy • the :evils that• afflict it, are worse than u,eless. If 'the -mass be morally diStased and sick we mus t t a o something iq weep and pine in silent sorrow, ---we must seek cutthe scat of the canker and purge it to a pristine health ;--we must try at leak, to find the remedy and do 'our utmost to apply it. There is a, miserable class of physicians .• whose wretched policy is, for the sake of fees, to endeavour to make their patient's cure as slow and incomplete as may at all consistent with the appearance of truth and honesty. There are : moral and spiritual coacks, ; as..well.as:thOse. who deal in more material medicines. There is a class of traffickers in men's mental weaknesses, who would live by maintaining superstitious beliefs as to the real state of our ,moral- condition— who depreciate every effort, not their own, to pre scribe for the case—and who urge the people to place their reliance for a cure wholly upon some vaunted specific of their own. Such men may always; be discovered by their frequent, though generally indirect and half-disguised attacks upon the value of education, and by, their attempts to sneer at the . progress and, of the age. Such facts as we have just enumerated, as to the statistics of the present assize, 'invariably furnished those, unhappy people with a text for an. eloquent denunciation of Science and Art, and, the efforts of " Educationalists" and " Secularists," as they are called. Now, we know that educa tion cannot, of itself change a man's moral nature. We are perfectly orthodox on that point ; but we undertake to say it has much, very much, to do with' the prevention of crime; because we find that our criminal population are all but ,wholly uneducated. That crime and even superior education are not altogetherincbriipatible may at once be admitted, without injuring our argument—for • the excep tion only proves. the _rule.. .Take the present calendar, to which we •have adverted, and see how the facts stand with reference to this' point. In a list which comprises ninety prisoners, ,charged with almost every. species of known= crime, how many do we find in it - pOSSessing a good educa tion ? ONLY ONE ! And the crime charged against him is only that of forging ,and uttering . certain receipts for money. Of the remainder only' fourteen can road and write well. All the others have had no eclucation, at all worthy of the name. Nor is this calendar different in these respects from• former 'calendars here or elsewhere. They all tell one and the same story, and point conclusively to the existence of the same relation between -crime and want of education, It is, therefore, useless to tell us of all that has been done in the cause of educa T . tion, so long as we .have a large body of the people unblessed by its humanising influences', Neither must we content ourselves with aiming at the low standard of educating the peOple merely to read and write. These are but instruments which may be • used for good or evil: We must train the people to think and act intelligently, according to their several capacities and the sphere in which their lot has been..cast.. Could such 'a desirable consummation be attained, -who will dare- to • deny that we might justifiably calculate On a dhniOutioh of the moral malaria 'aid): at present deVaiilates" the ,masses? And becau4e, there maybe many difficult - leg in the way of attaining that end, are we' to he — thereby deterred .from the attempt ; or shall we be dis heartened- in our . effbrts by craven fears of ultimate failure ? While we necessarily devote much , '•of Mir time and means in preparations to resist the foreign invader, let us not, forget to • - arm ourselves against the, great internal foe of ignorance. Let us all be volunteers in the cause of education, and never relax our most energetic endeavours on its behalf until we" have banilied the denion of moral darkness. and , superstition from the Mind of every Englishman. FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE ------~ FRANCE.- (FROM. OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) TUESDAY, August 14. The Emperor, not satisfied with the eulogistic Way 'in whieh "'the Moniteur, by his iMperial command, haS expatiated on the services rendered to the State bY . the Corps Legishitif, the Council. of State, and the Senate, is about to confer upon. A great many of the members of these various bodies the decoration of the Legion of Honour. It is fair, how ever, to say that, among the decores, there are to be included several dis tinguished men of letters. MM. My. Lafou and Victor Sejour, M. Leon Laya, the successful author of Due J:ub, and M. Cormon, who at thi s moment discharges the functions of director o f la. scone at the Grand Opera, will all deservedly figure in the list of new appointments. The last of the Imperial becrees was, signed on. Stind4; and they will all bear that the, nomina tions have heen made at the instance of one or other of the members of the Cabinet.. You are aware that the, Emperor, on the death of Prince Jerome, continued to Prince Napoleon the use of the Palace Royal as a residence, to . gether with the allowance of 300,000 francs per annum. But it turns out that the Castle of Meu- . don was also included in the allowance.' All the arrangements relative to the attendants of the palace have been in consequence upset, and there is 'no longer. a military commandant of the palace. I hear that all the employes who are effected by this change havelnet, and have addressed a peti tion: to the Erriperor.. The petition was taken by 'one of them to the camp at Chalons; who placed it in The hands of his Majesty at the very moment; when he was in the act of reviewing the troops. It is said that,their request that the establishment at the Palais Royal be kept up, will be granted by his Majesty. In the absence of the Ernpress, the dist r ib u ti on of the prizes to .the pupils of the various Imperial charities at St. Denis, atEconeu, a n d at L oges, took place under' the auspices of the Princess Clotilde, who is not wont to appear much in publiO. The feeling here on the subject of Syria, for the moment, is, that affairs .are mendi ng , if t h ey have not been already considerablyimproved; b u t one vessel after another continues to leave either Marseilles or Toulon with troops. From Athens letters have been received containing, among other things, most severe comments on the con duct of the representatives of. the Great Powers in Syria for allowing themselves to be duped with the farce of 'a treaty of peace between, the Marmiites and the Druses. It was all a piece of humbug, according to these writers. It is also stated that I. Le Normant, whose long and interesting-i-though somewhat partial—Jetter wa s recently published in the Paris journals,-isto fol-: low up that communication by the publication of a pamphlet, in which-he• will addrees himself to the task of detailing, with the most scrupulotts exactitude, all the facts connected with the events' in Syria. The opinion still prevailS, and is acted upon, at Athens, that these: events are manifestly the fruits of a vast conspiracy, organised by secret societies and and their ramifications, extending into Algeria on the one side, and embracing the whole of the provinces of the Ottoman Empire on the other; and_also, that ,the ignorance .and fanaticism of Turks is, so excessive, as to render every: ki n d o f present reform. and improvement impossible, and; every hope for the future, desperate. By the last accounts from• Alexandria, Colonel Osmont, - chief of the 'staff of • General - Beaufort -d'Hantpiitil," arrived at'Bbyront'bff the 3M by the EuphiateS, and' commissary -General Molly :iiriis! , ed on tin) stli'by .. the Her On. M. -- de' Is. Ronelere le,Naery, who has been sent by the Government to Candle, has had his slestivation altered. He has . been charged by the. Emperor with, n,mission -to -Jeru salem, and is 'already as far Jaffa on his-way to the Holy City. The object of this mission has not yet transpired. „ The transport 'YOnne has arrived. at Algiers, and taken onboard the urtil4ry destined for SyCia.., It is also, mentioned that the Algerines in 'the French' service have subscribed a con siderable sum ,for tho., l 7.ePcf of the suff erers b y the massacre. The . N or d says that.- a„.large amoUut,of money is being collected for the same object among the .principal members of the Turk ish persuasion in Russia. The movements 'of Garibaldi are in • the course of being gradually relieved of their mystery,• and probably in my .letter of to-morrow I shall be able to give you some interesting details of them.

The Daily News, alluding to the last night's debate, says, the great want of India is good ad ministration; we are making new taxes, and al the while, by the testimony of the highest officers; of the Government, existing taxes are not half(' collected. The House of Commons is powerless. to effect any of those administratiVer reforms which would develop the resources of that em pire ; but it may give the Indian Government to understand practically that it must look to India and not to England for the funds with which to govern that country. The Daily News speaking of the official state ment of the Austrian Minister of Finance, remarks :—" A more miserable attempt to , cover by inacurate figures, the irretrievable insolivency , of the state never yet came under our observa— tions. There are but glaring and increasing: deficits, and the only manner in which it is. attempted to reduce them, is by indul g i ng i n , visions of unprecedented disarmament, which is• to extend over periods that for aught anybody knows, may find Austria again at war, and her ' armaments doubled if posssible in extent." The Austrian debt now amounts to P 260.500,000 sterling, a 5 per cent. interest upon which would consume very nearly one half of the whole Austrian revenue. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS. -YESTERDAY. Lord STRATFORD DE REDCLIFFE inquired whether vessels of war were to be sent to, Smyrna, and other places in Syria where disturbanees were ( I 'Jzpected, for the protection of British interests, and of the inhabitants in general. He had received information touching the great probability of an outbreak at those places, and even at Constantinople itself. He had, ftzr ther, received a letter from Constantinople, urging the Euro -Nan governments, and France and England especially, to t a ke the opportunity of b r i ng i ng a b ou t e ff e ctual re f orms in the . Turkish administration. The Syrian disturbances were not due to mere local causes, but to the misgovernment and weak— ness of the Turkish authorities. Lord WoutuonsE said that special orders had been sent out to station ships of war at Smyrna, although no particular ships have. been mentioned. Admiral Martin had a large force at his disposal, and had been instructed to afford assistance wherever it was required. He was fully alive to the necessity of protecting Smyrna,the Population o f w hi c h conta i ned so liege a population of Christians. As soon as tranquility was restored, the Powers would use every effort to effect a reform in Turkish administration. The Marquis of NoRMANB Y expressed his gratification at this statement. In reply to a further question from Lord Stratford de Red cliffe, Lord WonErtoesc said that a commission, composed of the representatives of England, France, and Russia, had enquired into the state of the finances of Greece in reference to the pay ment of the loan guaranteed by those Powers. The report of that commission had been laid before the House of Commons; he would produce it for the information of their lordships. Some formal business was transacted, and the house adjourned at ten minutes past seven. HOUSE OF CONIMONS.-YESTERDAY. At the morning sitting the report of the committee - on the East India Loan was brought up, and leave given to introduce a bill founded upon it. Mr. JAM' s asked the Chief Commissioner of Works whether the report which appeared is the newspapers was trtie that he had addressed a large assembly in Kensington Gardens, in favour of the new ride ? Mr. COOPER replied that he was strolling through the gar dens when he heard a socialist orator addressing the crowd, and denouncing the aristocracy to general, and himself in par ticular, especially in reference to his conduct with regard to the new ride. As soon as the orator had finished, he certainly did jump upon the bench and reply to the observations. This, he contended, was the correct and manly course, and he trusted that the House would think with him. The House then went into Committee of Supply, and voted several votes on the Civil Service Estimates, as well as a vote of £1,000,000, to make up Exchequer Bonds falling due next November. In the evening, the Consolidated Fund (L 10,000,000) Bill was read a third time and 1 assed. On the motion for going into Committee of Supply, Sir J. rAKINGTON moved a resolution to the effect that, the grants annually made by Parliament for the promotion of education, ought to be expended with fair and just regard to the requirements of the different clas , es of schools recognised by the minutes of the Committee of Council, and that ragged and industrial schools, which are alone adapted to meet the Wants of a considerable nnmbrr of destitute and neglected children, are therefore entitled to a larger amount of aid than they at present receive. Under the pres en t system these schools failed of produ c i ng the good which oug ht to be ex petted of them, and he urged the Government to take more effectual - steps in furtherance of institutions so necessary to the well being and morality of the population. Mr. BLACKsecon'ed the motion, pointing out the universil advantages pmduced by the establishment of ragged and industrial schools in Scotland, and its perfect success in England. Mr. ADHERLET opposed the 'notion, on the ground that if it was adopted there was no guarantee whatever that the grant should be properly applied. Mr. BRISCOE supported the resolution. Mr. A. MILLS said if these schools NVCVO shut up, the byrden 1
