did not wish to enter into matters-that liout i probably be
disagreeable to all parties; but as every' means had failed to
have an arrangement made in this case,' he was obliged
to state certain. facts. Mr. Alfred Batten, who was one of
the partners, and who resided on the premises, had a
daughter, an the 'young man took' a liking to her, and
she took a great -fancy to him. He was- fully as good
and as respectable (if not more so) as Mr. Batten:
Young people, no doubt, will now and then be talking
to each other, without the consent of their parents. The
young couple got married without the consent of their
parents, and their stolen love was concealed for some time,
" but murder will out," and, although the act was not one
of murder, it was found out, and on the discovery the young
man was desired to quit the house instantly, which, of
course, he did. He was refused a character, so that he
might be enabled to procure another situation, and his only
resource was to compel the defendant's- to take him back
until the expiration of his time, and teach him his business.
He (Mr. Bluek), would not go into further private or family
affairs, and it was with pain he went thus far, but all
attempts at an arrangement had heretofore failed, and this
was the dernier ressort. Mr. Charlesß atten contended that
the young man had broken the contract by going away and
getting another situation for two or three days; that he
also had broken it by neglect and disobedience about writing
tickets and the like ; and, after a long discussion (the young
man having been examined), which fOr the sake of all
parties we think it better not to pub,lish, the case was
allowed to stand over for a week, so that some arrangement
might be come to in a manner satisfaotory to all concerned.

PIGEON S 'OOTING AT HORNSEY WOOD HOUSE.—On Monday, a
match for £5O a side came off at thee grounds; between the Hon.
Dudley' Ward and the Hon. G H. Heathcote, both well-known
shots. The-conditions were 25 pigeons 30 yards rise,' trans, and
I}. oz. shot, but Mr. Heathcote limited-himself to 1 oz.! only.
Barber supplied the pigeons, which were first-rate ; and the 'style
in which his son reeover-d them was, as it always is, inimitable;
nevertheless, he missed one, of Mr.lleathcote's, which looked as
good as a "dead bird." Mr. Ward used a 10-;cage, and Mr.-
Heathcote a 14, both doable-barrels, and the use of the two allowed.
The fol'owing is the score, from which it will be seen that Mr.
Ward won by four birds':—

MONETARY AND COMMERCIAL.
LIVERPOOL, Mmiday Evening.
There is little if any change to notice itl the
general tone of the Cotton Trade. To-day, there was
a steady demand at Saturday's prices. The sales
were 6,000 bales, including 1,000 on speculation and
for export.

Although the actual business done in the Liver-
pool Share Market to-day was small, the tone was
decidedly better, and prices left off at their best.
The following was the business done : —Chester and
Birkenhead, 7370 731, 74 ; London and Noith West-
ern, 90 ; Midland, 98T-, ' • Dovers, 204- ; Great Western
of Canada, 14 9-16; Midland 41 per cents, 142;
Chester and Holyhead 5 per cents, 119.
The Produce Markets have undergone no change of
moment. There is, perhaps, a greater demand for
Sugar, but prices are well supported. In Molasses
and Rum a moderate business has been done, and a
cargo of Rio Coffee, afloat for a near port, has been
placed at 48s 6d per cwt. for good firsts. Of Rice
2,000 bags have found buyers at 12s ; 600 bags Salt-
petre, to arrive, are also reported at 48s 6d per cwt.
for five per cent. The stock of Sugar in Liverpool
on Saturday last was 24,372 tons, of which 8,186
were 8.P., and 16,186 foreigns, against 23,932 tons
in 1858, of which 8,682 were 8.P., and 15,250 tons
foreign.

The confirmation of the decisive character 'of the
Franco-Sardinian victory has stregthened the hope
that the war will not be of long duration, and caused
a fresh rise of about ! per cent. in the Funds. The
usual partial relapse afterwards took place, and the
market did not close at its best, thoughfirm in prices.
Consols at the close were quoted as follows, viz.,
92-3- to 924 ; Exchequer Bills,, 22 to 25 ; Bank Stock,
219 to 221 ; and the New Threes, 931 to 93:4.
Foreign Stocks left off steadily as they began. Banks,
Mines, and Miscellaneous Shares much the same.

The London Railway Share Market opened at
about the closing prices of Saturday, and left off
firm. The tone of the market is good, but hardly
any business is doing. Lombardo-Venetians were
good. The following are the closino. prices :—Am-
bergate, Nottingham, and Eastern Function, 51, 59 ;
Caledonians, 79, 791; Eastern Counties, 551; 561 ;
East Lancashire, 87, 89 ; Edinburgh and Glasgow,
70, 72 ; Great Northern, 984, 99 ; Do. A, 80, 82 ;
Great Western of Canada, 14, 14'4 ; Great Southern
and Western 104, 105 ; Lancashire and Yorkshire,
904, 901 ; London and North Western, 891, 901 ;
Vondon and South Western, 90, 901 ; Leeds North-
ern, 441, 45 ; Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire,
351, 351; Midland Stock, 984, 994--; North British,
54, 544,-; South Eastern and Dover, 661, 671 ; York,
Newcastle, and Berwick 881; York, and North Mid-
land, 711, 721.

The letters, per the America, delivered to-day, in-
form us that the New York Money Market was
becoming more stringent ; the Banks were curtail-
ing their Loans, and rates of Discount were higher.
Exchange on London was also looking up. In
Cotton, there had been a slight reaction, and prices
had gradually advanced, Midland Uplands being.
quoted at 1 l&c. per lb. At New Orleans, middling
was quoted, on the 15th, at 110. In' Breadstuffs,
business was dull ; and the same remark applies to
Provisions, Rice, and other Produce.
The new scheme of the Directors of the Atlantic
Telegraph Company, is now before the 'public, for
raising £600,000 new capital, by the issue of prefe-
rence shares of £5 each, bearing a guaranteed
interest of 8 per cent. per annum. The new shares
are to have the following privileges : Guarantee of
the British Government, 8 per cent. per annum ;
subsidy from the British Government, £20,000 per
annum ; subsidy from the United States Government,
£14,000 per annum ; agreement with the New York
and Newfoundland Company, conferring on the
Atlantic Company exclusive traffic arrangements
with the entire telegraphic system of Canada and
the United States. The Directors state that they
have found highly responsible parties willing to
manufacture and submerge the cable, and who will
guarantee under heavy penalties its efficient working
for a period of thirty days. With this prospect, and
the carrying out of the suggestion for the insurance
of the cable when- completed, the invitation now
made by the Directors to the original shareholders
and the public, to subscribe for this new capital,
seems likely to meet with success.

An increased business is still reported in the
general Money Market, partly in consequence of
numerous payments in connection with railway and
other objects, which have to be provided for during
the next few days. A large aggregate amount is
absorbed for this purpose, which, in addition to the
preparations necessary for the commercial engage.
ments arriving at maturity early next month, and
the liquidation Of half-yearly accounts, has imparted
more firmness to the market. Those who engage in
discount business, always endeavour' to enforce higher
terms whenever the, least- opportunity is presented;
but up to the present time it cannot be said that any
decided change in the general condition of the
market has occurred, because the rates demUnded are
still below the minimum quotatibri in Threadneedle-
street, and the available supplies are largely in excess
of commercial and other requirements.
The fortnightly settlement in shares and foreign
stocks will commence to-morrow, and terminate on
Thursday.

The 311,0001. in Australian gold by the Suffolk,
Shalimar, and Annie Wilson readied London on
Saturday, of which 60,0001. was sent into the Bank,
and about 100,000/. was taken for transmission to the
Continent.

The steamers Hercules and Kief, which are due
from St. Petersburgh, are known to have a total of
at least 80,000/. in gold.
The Grand Trunk Railway Company of Canada
announce the half-yearly interest on their preference
bonds and ordinary 6 per cent. debentures. The
interest at the rate of 6 per cent. per annum on
the consolidated stock will, be paid in 7 per cent.
debentures.

A great sensation was produced this morning by news of
the important victory announced from Paris, as a, just
account, gained by the allies. The Funds, which opened at
an advance of &per cent. soon experienced a farther rise of
I per cent., principally upon purchases to cover previous
speculative sales. Towards the close a partial relapse
occurred, but the latest quotations here still ti per cent.
above those of yesterday. The period when diplomacy may
step forward between the contending forces, is.earnestly
looked for. In the other departments of the Stock Ex-
change the immediate tendency was decidedly favourable.
£311,000 Australian gold reached London to-day, of which
£6,000 was sent into the Bank, and about XlOO,OOO was
taken for transmission to the Continent.—Dady Sews City
Article, Saturday Evening.

The news of 'the-battle' on the Mincio- has caused. an
improvement in the 'Funds, owing to a dispesition on the
part of the speculators to assume that it may' have, been
sufficiently decisive to lead to inimeOiate negociations for
peace. Money was again rather more in demand to-day,
but not at rates suffieielltly high to lead to any increase of
applications at the Bank. It is stated from Paris that large
quantities of diamonds,andetlieri,Valiiables are finding,their
way to' that market, chiefly from-Anstria and other parts of
Germany, and that there is a comiderable exportation; of
five franc pieces in retura.---4Vines CitY Article, Saturday
Evening.
The Daily Hews says, the victory of the allies caused an
increased business to be done on Saturday in the silk
market.

THE BOARD OF TRADE RETURNS show that the total
exports in April, 1859, were £1,872,297 more than in April,
1858; these in May, 1859. present an increase of only
£122,096 compared with May, 1858. For the five months,
however, the difference in. favour of the present year is still
as much as £9,110,897, or 21 per cent.
