THE BIRKENHEAD RIOTS. Yesterday, before a full bench of magistrates, including Sir E. Oust, Mr: Case, Mr. Bryans, &c., the five men arrested on a charge of rioting, on Tuesday, surrend ere d. Th e R ev . Mr. Fielding presided. The names of the prisoners are— Patrick Farrol, James Maguire, Thomas Murphy, Laurence Taggart, and Thomas Martin. Farrol is charged with assaulting several of Mr. Laird's men, breaking windows, and being . concerned in a riot. Maguire and Murphy were charged with attempting to rescue Farrol from the custody of the police, and Taggart and Martin with engaging in a regular riot and breach of the peace. William Strangway was the first witness called. He said, about half-past ten on Tuesday morning, I was on duty at the Police-office ; large number of men came up Market-street, numbers of them armed. The poll was then being taken on the subject of the Burial Act. A. number of the crowd were armed with bludgeons, staves, &c., &c., but no fire-arms. There were spades, pikes, &c. They aypeared very much excited, shouting and making a great noise. There were parties who appeared to be ringleaders of the mob, but he could not say who they were. They were met by the Rev. Mr. Chapman, and they did not offer any violence then. A great number of the sticks were taken from them. They then dispersed. Witness was ordered down to Conway-street with a force. In consequence of receiving a message he went down to Mr. Laird's yard at half-past two. He did not see any commotion between these hours, further than a crowd, rather excited, round the Town-hall, all the day. When he reached Mr. Laird's yard, Monk's Ferry, there was a great crowd round there, they were not doing anything then, they were merely talking loudly, and seemed excited. Saw some broken windows. He then went into the office in the yard, accompanied by some officers, and found the prisoner Farrol there. He was given into custody by some of Mr. Laird's men, on a charge of being riotous and breaking the windows. Put him in charge of Evans, an offices, handcuffed him and despatched him to the police-office ; -witness accompanied him. There were five officers in all. When they reached Market-street, near to the police-office, they were surrounded by a great number of men, they took hold of us in a very violent manner, and attempted to rescue the prisoner. The mob numbered two thousand at the least. Could not say exactly the number that we mediately concerned in the attempted rescue, there were certainly upwards of twenty. Several of them took hold of witness and tried to rescue Farrel ; witness resisted. There was a good deal of struggling. The other officers aided witness. Succeeded in getting the man into the police-office, and afterwards into bridewell. Did not see any blows struck then. Witness then returned to the police office, and ordered to arrest James Maguire and Thomas Mi.xply, for attempting to rescue Farrol. Witness saw them attempting the rescue. They were arrested and taken down to bridewell. Witness did not hear what was the object of the crowd, from the cries; he had heard before the arrests. Cross-examined by Mr. Bretherton : This was on the second day of the polling, there was much excitement on the first day. No opposition was offered on the second day to any one voting. The voting on the second day was even more orderly than on the first day. Heard a band of music, it was on an omnibus. Saw some placards on it, did not know that the band was about the town playing party tunes for the purpose of beating up voters, for one particular party. The prisoner Farrol was in charge of him, and when they attempted to rescue him„ there was no blows struck. Officer 7 was with witness. [Mr. Bretherton here requested that the magistrates would order him out of Court, which was done.] By Sir E. Cast: The men in the morning saw a number of bludgeons in the hands of the mob, but he saw no violence. The mob at Laird's yard did not have any bludgeons there. By Mr. Bretherton : There was no violence shown to witness at Laird's yard, nor did I see any arms or bludgeons in the crowd which attempted the rescue. George Bridge was the next called, be is an iron plate maker, and lives at 242, Park-road. The witness said he could not conscientiously give evidence, as it might be prejudicial to a party not in custody. How ever, the magistrates ordered him to be sworn. In his evidence he stated that he was employed at Mr. Laird's yard. On Tuesday afternoon, about seven minutes to two o'clock, he was standing outside the yard. The first thing which drew his attention to the crowd, was a woman breaking two or three panes of the time-keeper's office. He bad gone to Laird's yard from the Town-hall. He went along with the crowd. Witness was only at the Town ball through curiosity. The crowd from the Town-hall, on their way to Laird's yard, were very noisy. They had sticks. They had a leader.. He walked before them and appeared to direct them. The first act of violence he saw was a woman smashing in some panes, of glass belonging to the time-keeper's o ffi ce, and one of the men finishing the damage by breaking all the glass. Next thing he noticed was a man with a " billy-cock" hat. He believes he is a broker, but does not know his name. He broke another window with a stone. Did not see him do it more than once, but he did it most deliberately. Saw thousands of stones thrown. There were no calls, cries, or shouts. All the front windows were broken. One young man he took particular notice of; that was Farrol. He was the most disorderly in the lot. When the crowd came to the yard, . , the gates were closed, but a few minutes after, the stoning began, the gates were thrown open from the inside. The stoning continued with spirit. — 'Saw one of the crowd run against B door in the works, put his foot against it, and forced it in —breaking it from it hinges. Don't know that man. Saw Farrol throw stones at the windows before and after the yard gates were opened. Afterwards saw some of Laird's men and the prisoner Farrol in a scuffle. Farrol was down, and the men on the top of him. They tried to drag Farrol into the yard.. A policeman then came up, and he was taken into the office. Farrol was bleeding at the time. The gates were shut soon after, The disturbance came to an • end as soon as Farrol was taken into custody. of the crowd remained. Witness went up to -the __-station to charge Ferrol for stone-throwing. Cross eiamined by Mr. Bretherton : Saw a number of sticks. Did not see them use the sticks. Saw a woman, and also a man who is nick-named the "baker." These two persons did no more damage than the other portions of the crowd. James Cross : Saw a crowd coming up from. llamilton street towards Grange-lane. This was about two o'clock. The crowd were shouting and making a great noise. They turned down Market-street, and proceeded to Laird's yard. Witness thought there would be a row, and he followed them. They made a great noise, shouting, swearing, &c., saying they would kill every one who ha voted for Mr. Laird. The principal part of the crowd were navvies. At the Town-hall, in the morning, they had little bits of papers, which appeared t o b e voting papers. When a ear drew up, and the voters were for Craven, they cheered "like murder "—only as Irishmen can cheer. This was at nine in the morning. He then went to his work, and returned at twelve o'clock. The crowd were talking al)ott; - , the poll, saying that Mr.. Craven had won, and th a t was a ll they wanted. Witness stayed till two o'clock, when a great crowd proceeded to Laird's yard , and he ollowed them. The crowd consisted of Irish men and women. Some of them had sticks. They were shouting, that they would thrash those who had voted for Mr. Laird, and they had not done right to those who had not voted for Mr. Craven. At the first they challenged Mr. Laird's men to come out and fight them. The men did not come out, and stone- tlarowing began. The first stone cast was by a woman. Ferrol was in front. He was throwing stones at the windows and over thn wall. They all ran away when the cry of police was made. Saw the door broke down by a man not in the court, but Farrol was there.. The man fell down a passage, and Farrol picked him up and pulled him out. , Saw Farrol brought into the yard by the police. Stopped in the yard for about half-an-hour. When he came up to the bride well he found the mob attempting to rescue Farrol from the bridewell. The Rev. Mr. Chapman was endeavouring to take their sticks from them. Cross-examined by Mr. Bretherton : Saw Mr. Laird's gates shut, and open after wards. Saw some of Mr. Laird's men come out; they did not attack the crowd. Saw some pieces of wood thrown out of the yard. The gates were thrown open. He got into Laird's yard, find saw a number of pikes in the hands of the men. Is a glazir by trade.

Farrol was handcuffed, and five or six of the officers followed him. When they started, he saw the prisoner Maguire exciting the crowd to a disturbance. Maguire was quited, and the prisoner was take n u p towards the bridewell. Ma gu ire and Murphy stopped the officer on along with ,other men the road, and endeavoured to rescue Farrol. With much difficulty, Fallon was taken into the office, and Maguire and Murphy were afterwards taken. Farrol was quiet until Martin and Maguire attempted to rescue. Several others attempted to rescue Farrol, but he (witness) did not know them. Cross-examined by Mr. Bretherton : No one struck him. George Carter was in the police-office, near three o'clock. He heard a great noise, and he ran to the door. Farrol was in charge of the police, and Murphy was attempt ing to rescue him, pulling him by the legs. Witness got hold of Murphy and managed to take him into bride well. Maguire attempted to rescue Murphy from him, and officer Smith arrested Maguire. Taggart attempted to rescue another man, who was not now in custody, and he was taken into bridewell. Mr. Bretherton wished to know if the bench considered further evidence necessary. They admitted the facts, and what was the use of heaping evidence upon evidence ; the same facts would just come out. As Mr. Bretherton had wished Evans to leave the court while the other witnesses were being examined, they decided that he should be called. Joseph Evans said, he was at Laird's yard, on Tuesday evening. The prisoner Farrel was put into his charge. He kept the prisoner for about twenty minutes or half-an-hour. He was ordered to bring him up to the police-office. As the police and the prisoner were turning the corner of the Town-hail, a crowd rushed upon them and attempted to rescue them. He identified Martin and Maguire, both of whom caught hold of witness and tried to take away the prisoner. Farrell was very quiet. Witness was struck on the mouth by somebody, but he could not say whether Martin or Maguire struck him. After putting Farrel into bridewell, he came out and arrested Martin. He did not resist. Cross-examination by Mr. Bretherton : Did not officially report being struck. His mouth was bleeding. Did not strike Martin in the bride- I well. Did not go down. Nor against the wall. Was in Grange-lane that morning. Saw a number come out of the Catholic chapel. Did not call them all a bloody set of Papists. Horsley, bridewell-keeper, said that, on Evans coming into the bridewell, he noticed that his mouth was bleeding. No violence was shown to Martin, nor was he struck. Mr. Bretherton then addressed the magistrates on behalf of the prisoners. He deeply regretted the occasion as much as the magistrates could, and he did not pretend to say or ask for one moment to go in defiance of the law. A breach of the law had undoubtedly been shown, but the very . breach which was now before them showed the power and efficiency of the law. He must say that the conduct of the police on the occasion was most kind and forbearing, and he contended that the moral force and respect with which the present Birkenhead police are looked upon would have been enough to have prevented the rioting. He passed on to the fact of one of the magistrates accepting bail, and vindicated that action. The learned gentleman proceeded to say that he was the last man to shrink from danger, although he was one that had the greatest amount of odium thrown upon him for the holding and carrying out his own opinion. The rioting would have been prevented had not a number of curs slunk off in the hour of trial; curs who *Cut into the back slums and concocted some weak contributions to the newspapers, vilifying and slandering every one who were opposed to them. Mr. Bretherton continued at much length, and left the prisoners in the hands of the bench, reminding them that the first prerogative of justice was mercy. The ma g istrates having considered for upw ar d s o f h a lf an hour, the Rev. Mr. Fielding delivered their decision. He said, they had given the case their careful consideration, and they were gratified to see that Mr. Bretherton admitted the charges, which, against the four prisoners Maguire, Murphy,. Taggart, and Martin, was not of a very formid able nature. An assault was made upon one of the officers, but as it was not traced to any of them, and the bench had decided that . justice would be dispensed by calling upon these four prisoneis to enter into security to keep the peace for two months, themselves in . £lo each, and two sureties of L 5 each. With respect to Farrol, the 'case was very different; his conduct was much more henious than that of the others, and they had determined to send it to a higher tribunal. They therefore committed Ferrol for trial at the assizes, accepting sureties for his appearance —his own recognizance in £4O, and one security in £4O. LIVERPOOL COUNTY COURT—Yesterday. BEFORE J. K. BLAIR, ESQ ACTION AGAINST THE REV. HUGH APNEILR BY THE LATE SCHOOLMASTER OF ST. PAUL'S.—GILPIN V. 111 4 . NEILE. —This was an action brought by Richard Gilpin, whose name was brought prominently before the public last year in con nection. with the enquiry into the conduct of the Rev. Mr. Gent. The action was brought against the Rev. Hugh M'Neile, incumbent of St. Paul's, Prince's-park, to recover £3O, which the plaintiff claimed as the balance of salary due from the Ist July, 1856, to the Ist July, 1858, being eight times the sum of £3 15s, alleged to have been stopped from him during that period, without his acquiescence. Mr. Grocott appeared For the plaintiff, and Mr. Field (of thefirm of Carson, Ellis, and Field) appeared for the defence. The evidence of the plaintiff was to the effect that, in consequence of communi , cations which he received from Captain Dyer, he became schoolmaster of St. Panl's, Priuce's-park schools, at a salary of £9O a year. He stated that he was .to have a free house as soon as it should be ready. On the Ist of January, 1858, he entered upon his duties, and was paid regularly his salary of. £22 lOs per quarter, until the holiday's of July, 1856. He had previously entered into possession of a house, in connection with the schools, and the Rev. Mr. Gent told ' him the committee had determined to reduce his salary to £75 per year, in consideration of his having the house. The plaintiff remonstrated against this, and said, that it was con trary to his engagement, and he . would not agree to it. He then went to Dr. M'Neile, and spoke to him upon the subject, asking him if his engagement- was to be broken through. Dr. M'Neile said it was altogether without his knowledge, but advised him to see or to acquiesc in the arrangement, and that at, the end of the year he .(Dr. M'Neile) would make it all right for him, which could- be easily done with Mr. Webster, the treasurer. In conse quence of this assurance the plaintiff deposed that he did send in his bill for the reduced salary, and accepted it. In October 1857, plaintiff wrote to Dr. M'Neile applying for the amount deducted, and reminding hiM of his promise: In February 1858, plaintiff was dismissed from the schools. The committee consented to pay him the salary for the current quarter, another quarter's salary in lieu of notice, and £4 as a quarter's rent of a house. He also demanded £3O as the amount of salary deducted from him, but this the committee would not pay, nor *Mild Dr. M'Neile, and under these circumstances the present action was brought. On cross-examination the plaintiff said he refused to go out of the house unless the committee ,paid a quarter's rent of another house, and they finally consented to do so. Dr. M'Neile was called as a witness for the plaintiff, and was examined by Mr. Grocott as follows : —Who had the appointment of the schoolmaster of St. Paul's Church ? The managing committee, consisting of the trustees of the church, the churchwardens, the incumbent, and the curate. You were the incumbent ? Yes. Did you request Captain Dyer to look out for a schoolmaster for you ? . lie recommended Mr. Gilpin, and I requested him to write accordingly. bid you tell Captain Dyer the terms upon which he was to be engaged ? Yes. What were they ? £9O per annum and a house to live in ? No ; £9O per annum. You are quite sure you did not instruct Captain Dyer to say .that the remuneration would be £9O a-year, and a house to live in ? lam quite sure I gave no such instructions; I cannot be sure what Captain -Dyer may have given, in his zeal for Mr. Gilpin; but I gave no instructions of the kind—l could not, Was the. Rev. Mr. Gent also instructed by you to look out for a schoolmaster ? Ido not remember, but. I think it is very likely—we were in s-arch of a schoolmaster at the time., Did you give any instructions to Mr. Gent to say that the remuneration should be £9O a-year, and apartments ? Certainly not. Do you recollect an interview with Mr. Gilpin upon the reduction of his salary in July, 1856 ? I recollect Mr. Gilpin speaking to me upon the subject, and wishing to have the undiminished salary without any reduc tiOn on account of house.rent. Did you say to him, Never mind, w ill ma k e it a ll right ?" No. I 1 to acquiesce on ace evidence was substantially the same as that of Dr. IWNeile. llis Honour said the evidence was very clear that this person was.engaged for £9O a year, without a house. _lt was perfectly clear that there was no such arrangement with Dr. Al‘Neile as th a t re li e d upon.. .A verdict was accordingly entered for the defence. .

The usual notices were posted and given to the owners of property, and no objection was then made by the defen dant, or any other body, and the street was accordingly paved by the corporation. Mr. Newlands, the borough engineer, was called in e v id ence . H e sa id th e b oo k w hi c h he held in his hand was a record of the streets adopted by the old commissioners previous to the authority being invested in the Corporation. Back Blenheim-street was not entered in that book. The handwriting in the book was that of the late Mr. Ashlin, who was secretary to the old board. He (the witness) had had several communications with Mr. Ashlin previous to his decease, in reference to adopted streets. In consequence of the condition of Back Blenheim-street, which was almost unpaved, and in a very bad condition for the health of the people, the street was paved. The street was sewered in 1853. The notices were proved to have been posted up in the usual way. Mr Ahraham Thomas said he paved the street for the Corpora tion, and that it was in a very bad condition previously, only a small portion of it being paved in a "sort of way. " Mr. Deighton in reply to the evidence said he would prove that the street had been paved in 1842, and that the street had been damaged by making a sewer through it in 1853, under the superintendance of Mr. Newlands. It was not through the neglect of the defendant that the street had come into bad repair. His Honour said it was quite clear that the street was adopted to the public, and that it was in a delapidated condition. Further, there was notices posted up, and no objection was made. He was of opinion, therefore, that there was no case to go to the jury. The jury said they could not see any point for them to try. A verdict was returned for the plaintiffs. LIVERPOOL POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—Yesterday, BEFORE MR. MANSFIELD. THE " WHIPS " THAT WERE " WHIPPED AWAY."—John Routledge, described as a " Sheriff's officer," was charged with stealing two small fancy riding whips, value £l, the property of a person named Robert Alcock, of Haigh-street. The complainant said he had an order from a lady for a fancy whip, and he went to the manufacturer's and got a bundle. He had them at his place, where the prisoner was, and the latter went off with the two now produced, which were subsequently found on his person. A boy proved that he saw the prisoner conceal the whips in the leg of his trousers, and another witness very naively said, " I swear these are the whips that were whipped away." This caused a shout of laughter, in which his Worship joined heartily. The prisoner said he was quite infused (the new word for drunk), and did not know what he was doing. He was sent for trial. CLEVER CAPTURE OF A NOTORIOUS TILIEF.—A well dressed fellow, about 18 years of age, whose name was given as James Brown, was charged with having picked the pocket of Margaret Longton, at the Tithebarn-street station. Inspector Horn said the prisoner was one of the most expert pickpockets in Europe, Asia, Africa, or America. He frequented churches and chapels, railway stations, hotels, theatres and concerts, exhibitions, and law courts, in fact, nothing escaped him, as his appearance got him introduc tions into such places, and he always had plenty of money. He was about four years in the north of England, and had committed more depredations than all the rest of the thieves in the kingdom put together. He was as successful in escaping from the police as he was in emptying peoplq's pockets. He was once tried, but was acquitted. Sampson was conquered by a woman, and it remained for a woman to capture this accomplished young scoundrelly " Conveyancer," who, if he turned his talents into some legitimate channel, might, in course of time, become a. Lord Chancellor, or a Chancellor of the Exchequer. Miss Longton said, she was a housekeiper to a gentleman at Ormskirk, and was in town on Wednesday, on business. She was returning, and at the station she felt some one at her pocket. She turned round and got the prisoner's hand in her pocket, drawing out two purses, one containing lOs 6d, the other 2s. 6d. He said to her, ".Oh, here are your purses, say nothing about it." When she got the purses, she seized him by the hair of the head, and, although he made furious plunges to get away, she stuck to him like a vice, until officer Leech, of the station, came up, and stuck to him like one of his namesakes, until he lodged him safely in the main bridewell. The prisoner said, " I plead guilty to this case, and if you deal in a summary way, I shall feel under an obligation, and, when I come out, I shall take my departure from these parts." Mr. Mansfield said, Miss Longton was about one of the most dangerous subjects he ever knew a thief to come in contact with. She had acted very coura g eously, and, he hoped, all ladies would imitate her, if attacked by pickpockets. He sent the prisoner for trial at the assizes, in consequence of.the " high" character given of him by Inspectoryorn. SERIOUS CHARGE AGAINST TRADESMEN.-Detective officers Laycock and Patrick, brought up William Roberts, and Elias Jones, partners in business, as wheelwrights and general blacksmiths, in Illiad-street, on a charge of having received a large quantity of iron and steel, that had been stolen from the stores of Mr. • James, iron merchant, Oil street. Mr. Bluck appeared for the prisoners. It will be in the remembrance of our readers, that on Saturday last, four men:(two of whom were employed at Mr. James's stores, and whose names are Parry and Mitchell,) were remanded on a charge of_having stolen over £250 worth of iron, from the stores of Mr. Jaines. Since that time the officers have been on the search for more of the stolen pro perty, and on Wednesday they arrested the prisoners at their place of business, on a charge of having received a further large quantity of iron and steel, stolen from Mr. James's stores. Laycock said : I, along with Patrick, made search and enquiry since • Saturday, for more of the iron, and we went to the prisoners' premises and asked them had they received any iron ? Mr. Bluck : Were they both there then ? Yes. I asked, had they got any iron from Mitchell ? (the man under remand) and they said they were making a cart for him, and that they had put from £l4 to £l6 worth of iron 011 it ; that as he was in Mr. James's employment, he got the iron at cost price. They denied having received any other iron from Mr. James's place. I cautioned them, and said I had a carter who had brought nine loads of iron to the place within the last three months, and both prisoners denied it. We found a quantity of hoop (patent) , with Mr. James's mark on, when they said they knew nothing of it, nor could they produce any account of it. We found a very large quantity of iron in the place, all identified as Mr. James's, but they could not tell how they got it. Got two or three tons in a loft, for which they could not give any account. I asked them, could they procure bills or receipts for any of it ? but they could not. They said Mitchell had sent a quantity of iron to the forge, but they could not tell how much. We got two bundles of steel that came from Mr. James's stores on last Saturday, and the prisoners said that was the last transaction they had with Mr. James. The officer was cross-examined by Mr. Bluck, and said he took the carter to the place, who pointed out the parties to him. lie did not know if the prisoners had a running account with Mr. James for iron, nor if they lately owed him £7O, and had paid £3O out of it. They said they were making a cart for Mitchell, who was to pay them £32 for it. He knew nothing of the prisoners, previous to the present time. Patrick was-examined, and corroborated the evidence of Laycock. A carter was.produced, who stated that he had carted several loads of iron to the prisoners' premises, and took it at all hours. Patrick produced an account fonnd in the prisoners' place, and this was explained by Mr. Smith, a person in the employment of Mr. James, who said the prisoners owed £7O to Mr. James, in December last, and the account was sent to them, with an intimation that they would. not get any more credit until that account was paid. • They paid X3O a short time since, but they had had no iron from the house since January. His Worship said he would remand the,, prisoners until the other men were brought up. Mr. Bluck : Will you take good bail for them ? Mr. Mansfield : I will take two sureties in £lOO each, for each of the pri soners. Officer Patrick said the prisoners were men of property, and had houses in town. They were then remanded.

There was a very quiet feeling after official hours, and only one transaction was reported in Chester and Birkenhead, at 67, the final closing quotations being :-Chester and Birkenhead, 67, 68 ; Caledo nian, 771, 78 ; Eastern Counties, 101, 11 ; East Lancashire, 854, 861 ; Great Northern, 99, 100 ; Great Western, 531, 54 ; Lancashire and Yorkshire Stock, 881 ' 884; London and North Western Stock, 884, 89; Ditto one-eighth shares, 14, 1 11-16 d ; Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincoln, 35, 351 ; Midland Stock, 971, 974 ; North British, 54, 55 ; North Staffordshire, 41, 44 d; North Eastern --Berwick, 861, 87; York and North Midland, 71*, 72 ; Leeds Capital Stock, 434, 44; South Eastern and Dover, 194, 194 ; Dutch Rhenish, 61, 61 d ; Great Western of Canada, 141, 141 ; Do.

The London Stock Market opened firmly this morning, but the recent rapid advance in the price of Public Securities having brought forward large quantities of Stock, a reaction took place, and prices declined, until at one time they were nearly five eighths per cent. lower than yesterday's close, but the announcement being made that the Bank of England had reduced the rate of dis count from 41 to 31 per cent., an im provement again set in, and the final quotations stood as follows : -Consols for Money, 934 to 938 ; do. Account, 934 to 934; Three per Cents., 921 to to 921 ; Bank Stock, 220 to 222 ; Exchequer Bills (Large and Small), 17 to 21, prem. In the London Market for Railway Shares there has been a decided reaction, and the buoyant feeling reported during the last few day's created heaviness. Some of the leading Railway Stock declining as much as one per cent, and at one time the fall in London and North Western's was as much as one and a-half per cent. Towards the close of the market, however, there was a better feeling, and prices improved a little, finally closing as follows: —Ambergate, sn, 5 . 4 ; Caledonians, 77, 78; Ditto Preference, 99, 103; Eastern Counties, 541, 551; East Lancashire, 85, 87; Edinburgh and Glasgow, 71, 73 ; Great Northern, 99, 100 ; Ditto A, 80, 82; Ditto B, 127, 132; Great esterns, 53, 54; Lancashire and Yorkshire, 871, 881. ; Brighton, 109, 110 ; North Western, 881 89 1; South Western, 884-, 891; Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire, 341, 351 ; Midland, 87, 88; " North British, 531, 541 ; Pre ference, 107, 109; North Eastern—Berwick, 861, 871; Leeds Northern, 44, 45 ; York, 71, 72 ; North Stafford, 4-'4, 4'4; South Eastern, 64, 65 ; Turkish Sixes, 68, 70; Ditto Fours, 1011, 1021 Great Western of Canada, 141, 141; New, 61, 61 ; Trunks, 81, 9. The arrivals of Specie continue large. To-day the steamer Ocean Queen has arrived at Southampton from New York, with 2,000,000 dollars, 900,000: of which are for England ; and the Kano-aroo, which has arrived, at Queenstown, en route for this port, has on board 720,029 dollars. The Grain Averages for the week, published to day, are as follows :—Wheat weekly, 53s 6d.; aggre gate, 48s 2d ; Barley weekly, 33s 6d ; aggregate, 32s lld ; Oats weekly, 25s 9d ; aggregate, 24s 7d; Rye weekly, 33s 8d ; aggregate, 32s lld ; Beans weekly, 46s 6d ; aggregate, 44s Id ; Peas weekly, 42s 10d; aggregate, 41s 3d; Wheat sold last week, 103,770 quarters. Messrs. W. Connal and Co., of Glasgow, in their monthly circular, state that the Pig Iron Market has been quiet, and the highest price reached was 49s 3d on the 11th, and the lowest 47s about the 27th instant. Prices have, however, since stiffened to our quotations. The stock of Iron in yards is 150,000 tons, against which warrants are in circu lation for 146,500 tons. In the London 'Tobacco Market, during the past month, there was an entire absence of speculative purchases, and altogether only a limited business was done, prices generally were well sustained. The home demand increased, and since the Ist of January the excess over last year amounts to 283,743 lbs. Messrs. Alfred Brett and Co., of London, have issued' their usual monthly shipping circular, which we quote entire. It is as follows : Affairs connected with the steam shipping interest during the past month have been rather of an exceptional nature ; the fluctuations in demand and supply have been quite per ceptible, yet May terminates without any real improvement, either in the rates of freight, generally, or in market value. At the commencement of the month, the expected commis sariat requirements of the Sardo-French army in the Medi terranean, produced considerable enquiries, and gave rise to anticipations of improved freightage and readier sales of steam-tonnage. A few engagements for outward freights and time charters were effected at advanced rates, but the instant the proclamation of neutrality 'by our govern ment appeared, several of these were cancelled, and a re-action ensued, equal to about previously existing rates. The question of neutral and American vessels monopolising the entire ocean-carrying trade in the event of a general war, and the impression that Americans would become customers for all the tonnage Great Britain could spare under such circumstances, have lately been discussed by our leading newspapers, the writers of which appear studiously to ignore the fact, that the only ships which can be registered under the United States flag, are either the many that are built there, or the few that may obtain the right of registration by an outlay in the nature of repairs in an American port, amounting to two-thirds of their actual value. Sales of steam-shipping property; since our last list was issued, have not been numerous, but the money value so transferred has not been inconsiderable ; a single transaction by us having passed nearly 20,000 tons of screw steamers into new hands ; perhaps the, largest operation of this nature hitherto effected. There is, however, still a preponderance of sellers of steam ships in the market. Builders continue on the look out for contracts, of which only a few special engagements have been recently made. The political condition of Europe exercises so much influence on the commerce of these realms, that busineis is much circumscribed, and merchants being extremely cautious in entering new engagements involvinc , the least uncertainty, the general employment for ships is' appreciably curtailed. Thus the views indicated in our last are unfortunately realised. Little business was done in the Discount Market yesterday, and transactions took place in the best bills below 3 per cent. The applications at the Bank have, almost ceased. Theli nii l P reducing their rate of discount from 4,1 to 31 per At Amsterdam the rate is 3, and at Hamburgh 2 per cent. files i-snivitof • There were no Bullion operations at the Bank yesterday. About half of the 89,0001. in Russian gold, which arrived on Tuesday, was sold yesterday . for exportation. The Ma (rdalena, for the West Indies, will take only £1,560 in specie. It appears from the report of the French Minister of Finance, that the subscriptions to the loan of £20,000,000, amounted in all to £100,382,000, being more than five times the sum demanded. The sub scriptions for 101. of Rente represented a capital of £ 4 , 2 81,6(r), and will be allotted in full, The other subsc:fibers will receive about 17 per cent. of the amount applied for. In appreciation of the strong interest taken in the completion of the Great Eastern, the directors avail themselves of Whit Monday and Tuesday, the 13th and 14th inst., to admit shareholders and the public. Under the present management considerable progress has been made, and it is expected that the vessel will be ready for sea in August. _ _ With reference to the iVranket for American Rail way Securities, Mr. E. F. Satterthwaite report as follows : We have had, during the past week, a firm market for American securities, and, though quotations are not mate rially higher, yet good bonds have become scarce, and more difficult to buy. The Funds opened this morning at a fresh advance, after attaining an extreme rise of ' 2 . to t per cent. onsols relapsed in the afternoon, but the closing quotations were 4 1 to per cent. above those of yesterday. In all the other departments of the Stock Exchange the tendency of prices was again upward. In the Discount Market transactions take place in the best bills below 3 per cent. The applications at the Bank have almost ceased, the minimum rate at that establishment is expec ted to be lowered to-morrow to 3 per cent. There were no bullion operations at the Bank. About half of the £89,000 in Russian gold, which arrived yesterday, was sold to-day for exportation.—Daily News City Article, TVednes day Evening. A feeling of certainty that the Bank of England will to-morrow make a reduction of 1 per cent. in their rate of discount, coupled with an undiminished demand for stock on the part of the general public, caused the English Funds to open this morning at a fresh improvement of a 4 per cent, and although a slight relapse occurred in the afternoon the final prices again exhibited great firmness. The battle of Palestro did not contribute to the upward movement. Notwithstanding the war, there is more buoy ancy on the Vienna Bourse than on that of any other German city, and stocks and shares have lately been largely bought. It is stated that the prospectus of a company will be issued in a few days, for laying two telegraph cables, from Corn wall to Canada direct, and that the proposed capital will be £soo,ooo.—Times City Article, Wednesday Evening. TRADE IN THE MANUFACTURING DISTRICTS. MANCHESTER MARKET.—The sales during the month were chiefly confined to purchases for India and China, very little business having been done by the lagest purchasers of yarn for the continental houses. A good many yarns were contracted for at considerably higher prices than they can now be bought at, and some parcels of such yarns have appeared again in the market, entailing a loss on the seller. 40's mule (our India quality A) we bought at l ld and I lid per lb during last and preceding week ; and 20's water for China (our B) at 9-td per lb. Manufactured Goods : A good demand for 5-4 shirtings, chiefly for India, made itself felt during the latter part of the month, and prices of this particular description of goods were net only firm, but a slight advance has been realised on them. 9-8 shirtings and printers in the better makes of 66 and 72 reeds have been much depressed, and declined from 6d to 9d per piece from the highest point. The lower qualities being in better demand, the fall in these is only from 3d to 42d per piece. Domestics and other heavy goods are also more or less in fluenced by the decline which has taken place in cottons and yarir. - YORKSHIRE MARKETS,—During the past month business has been very languid here, and prices of wools, yarns, and pieces have a downward tendency. Transactions in wool were of the most limited character, spinners buying merely to assort up stocks. Some of the country fairs have been lately, at which wool of this year's clip has been sold at rather higher prices than was anticipated, considering the flat state of business and the prices which are ruling in our market. In worsted yarns for export next to nothing has been done during the month, the news from the manufac turing districts on the continent being very discourag ing-. The demand for the home market has likewise somewhat abated, owing to the general unsettled state of affairs. Spinners have nearly completed old contracts, and in the absence of new ones they have no other alternative left, but to stop machinery. This has been done to some extent in this dis trict, and will have to be adopted more generally still, should `demand for the continent not soon revive. The foregoing observations are applicable likewise to our piece market, which has been dull. Few new orders are placed, and the old ones are gradually running out, so that short time will, no doubt, have to be adopted also in this department of our trade. There is no inducement for our manufacturers to work for stock at the present cost of production.—Dufay and Company's Monthly Circular. LIVERPOOL PRODUCE MARKET.- JuNE 2, SuGAß.—Bay . ers have shown a disposition at the recent decline, but, owing to the firmness of holders, no transac tions have taken place.
