MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY. TWO O'CLOCK.
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were estimated
at 5,000 bales, of which 500 American were taken for ex-
port. The market closed tamely without alteration in prices.
The sales comprised 4,000 American, 150 Pernam and Ma-
ranham, at 53/4d. to 614 d. ; 250 Egyptian, at 63/4d. to 71,Ad. ;
500 Surat, at 31/2d. to 41/4d. ; and 100 Sea Island, at ls. 23A d.
to Is. 9d. per lb.—Railway Shares were very good again.
The advices by the West India steamer are, upoa the
whole, satisfactory, and although Jamaica is greatly de-
pressed in her condition, and suffers from sickness, the
weather in the other colonies was generally good tor the
crops.
The advices from the Continent are all encouraging as
respects the Money Market.
The Committee of Mexican Bondholders have obtained
very satisfactory information respecting the progress
.made
in the liquidation of the advances made for the last dividend,
and it is highly probable that for the July interest there wilt
be very little trouble in obtaining similar advances. Messrs.
Baring Brothers and Co. have up to the present time re•
ceived the following specie remittances from Mexico on ac•
count of their advance of 800,000 dollars for the payment o
the last (January) dividend, viz.:--

Together. ........ 403,721 73
They have also advices of further shipments of 12.067 dollars
27 cents. from Tampico, and 3U,824 from ports of the Pacific
which are still to arrive. These accounts and such further
sums as their agents in the Mexican ports may have received
and are still in the course of receiving on this account, are
the produce of duties which had accrued before the 31st
December last. No advance had been taken on the duties
accruing since that date.
The bullion is coming In from all parts. The amount by
the West India steamer is about 235,0004 chiefly from Ca-
lifornia and the Pacific States. There is about 230,0001.
more from Australia, and a good deal is expected on Thurs-
day from the United States.
The English Stock Market has been very animated again,
and prices are all buoyant. Consols have realised 1001,E to
10(13/4, and are now 100 s/ for Account. The New Three-

and-a-Quarter per Cents. have been largely invested in at

since an account of certain insurance companies, which are
said to have applied the proceeds to the purchase of Irish
estates. The Three per Cent. Reduced Annuities bring 101

produced from Dr. Achilli. I went be-

visited him a second time in the sacristy, and the same thing
was repeated.
Cross-examined by the ATTORNEY-GENERAL—I went be-
fore the commissary of police after being four or five
months gone with child. Dr. Achilli was then in Naples.
It was Dr. Achilli who first went before the police; he called
on my father to be brought before the commissary. I never
met Dr. Achilli before the police. I was about an hour be-
fore the police. This affair was repeated about seven or
eight times in the sacristy. I cannot swear positively, but
that is nearly correct. This connexion extended until
between November and December, at which time my mother
became acquainted with the circumstance. Dr. Achilli left
Naples a long time after I discovered myself with child.
The reason why Dr. Achilli brought my father before the
commissary was to show that he had uttered calumnies
against him which were not true.
Re-examined by Sir A. COCKBURN—My father was called
a second time before the police, after I had been there.
Something was done to him. The commissary inquired, in
the mean time, if mine was an honest family, and if I was
an honest girl ; and knowing the truth, he sent for my father
and gave the papers to another tribunal.
Signora Principe, examined by Sir A. COCKBURN—I am
the mother of the last witness. I remember my daughter
becoming in the family way, but I cannot recollect
the month or year. My daughter was not mar-
ried. She was about 13 or 14 years of age.
I saw my daughter weak and ill, and did not know what
was the matter with her. I inquired the reason, and she
told me everything, and who was the father of the child.
She had conducted herself properly up to that time. I saw
Dr. Achilli respecting the matter. About Lent Dr. Achilli
was in a procession. I and my husband took him aside,
called him into a house, and told him the affair. On hear-
ing the matter, he said he had nothing to do with it,
and he added that he was a priest ; and I said I
would apply first to divine justice, and then to the laws of
the country. He then turned from me and said, " You may
go to the devil if you like, it matters nothing." That was
all that passed. Afterwards be caused me to be called
before the commissary of police. I went before him in a few
days, in company with my husband, whom Dr. Achilli
also caused to appear. Dr. Achilli was not present
before the commissary on that occasion. When
he went to the commissary previously he said a
low poor family had calumniated him. The commissary
made inquiry to ascertain what the priest had to do with it.
The commissary wished my daughter to come inside to see
her age. When she went before him he caused her to con-
fess everything that had happened. Neither myself nor hus-
band were condemned or punished for the charge we made
against Dr. Achilli. I do not know how soon after this oc-
currence Dr. Achilli left Naples; but we lost sight of him.
Cross-examined by the SOLICITOR-GENERAL—I am 59
years old; when my daughter was born I was 24 or 25
years of age. I was born in Naples, and never left it after I
gave birth to my daughter. My husband carried on the
business of a baker. I did not follow any occupation on my
own account. The circumstance happened about thirteen or
fourteen years ago, to the best of my recollection. My hus-
band died three or four years afterwards of disease of the
heart, I did not know Dr. Achilli at all before the event. I
knew him by sight. I had seen him preaching in all the
churches. I cannot say whether he remained two
or
was three years
four 'nor Nfivapeles
days after the
er I ocurrence. It
discovered
the pregnancy of my daughter that I stopped
Dr. Achilli when I saw bins in the procession. The pro-
ceedings before the commissary might have extended over
three or four months. Dr. Achilli made the complaint to
the police about a month after we had the conversation with
' him. He did not preach in the churches a year or two after
this happened. I never saw him any more after I spoke to
him on this occasion. My daughter lived with me three or
four months after her confinement, and then I was obliged to
send her to work. She was married about eight years ago.
Antonio Russo, examined by Mr. Sergeant WILKINS— I am
a native of Malta and a resident at Corfu, where I carry on
the business of a carpenter. I know one Garamoni, a tailor,
at Corfu. I remember one night in July, 1843 or 1844, walking
with Marino Venici in the street of Venialleo ; we passed the
house of Garamoni. Garamoni opened 'the door, and called
me within ; he said see here is a Catholic priest, Achilli. I
saw Achilli, he was on the stairs near the apartments of the
wife of Garamoni. This was about eleven, or half-past, at
night. It was dark. I took hold of him and asked him
what he did there; he trembled, but answered me nothing.
I saw it was Achilli, because Garamoni called for a
lamp, and it was brought. I distinctly saw his face.
Garamoni was very angry and scolded his wife and
Achilli. Garamoni called out for a constable. Achilli
trembled, but did nothing. When the light was out, the
constable not being there, Achilli slipped away. He ran like
a horse.—(Laughter.) and Venici were called before the
constable, and examined eight or nine days afterwards.
Depositions were taken. I know Garamoni was in England
some time, about two or three months; he returned to Corgu
about a month ago,
Cross-examined by the ATTORNEY-GENERAL—I came
with Garamoni to London, and lived with him here. I know
Captain Lawrence, the inspector of the police at Corfu.
Garamoni and I left London. After our arrival I went back
to Corfu. We had not previously heard that Captain Law-
rence had reached England. Garameni still remains at
Corfu. I had the misfortune to be confined in prison once, at
Corfu; it was for some youthful offence. I was once in pri-
son for beating my brother, and at other times for youthful
trifles. Oa another occasion I was accused but not convicted.
They said I had been guilty of theft. I cannot swear I have
not been in prison four times, because I was taken into custody
by the police when I was a child. Ido not recollect
whether I have been four times in prison since 1843.
(The witness here produced certain documents as to cha-
racter, which he wished to be presented to the Court). I
had never been in Garamoni's house before the occurrence
When Dr. Achilli ran away, like a horse, he went towards
the esplanade. I don't know that he lived next door to Ga-
ramoni's mother. I had never seen Dr. Achilli before, and
I never set eyes upon him afterwards. I did not give any
testimony before the police at Corfu,
Re-examined by Mr. Sergeant Wessues—l was never
charged with theft more than once; the youthful offences
were being taken in the streets by the police a little intoxi-
cated. When Garamoni said it was Achilli who was in his
house, he sptike loud enough for him to hear; the Doctor did
not answer; I never heard him speak a word. The light
was brought by the wife of Garamoni, at her husband's re-
quest, and it was held up to Achilli's face.
Signor Biochianhi, examined by Mr. ADDISON— I am a
native of Cephalonia. I knew Dr. Achilli at Ancona in
1841. He sought my acquaintance, his object being to go
to Corfu. I had a passport for Corfu, and he asked me to
insert his name in it. I gave Achilli the passport, and he
took it to the English consul. His name was in-
serted Achilli. Said he could not get out of
Italy for want of a passport. He had no money to pay for
his passage, and I paid. I had great difficulty in getting the
money repaid. While at Ancona, I observed Achilli at the
hotel with females. I saw Achilli at Corfu. I called at his
house. I saw a young woman there. He told me she was
the wife of his servant. He did not mention her name.
There are parts of Corfu confined to prostitutes.
Are they so confined to prostitutes that persons who go
there are considered to go with prostitutes?—(Loud laughter.)
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL—God forbid.
Witness—Those parts are chiefly confined to prostitutes.
I have seen Achilli there more than once.
Cross-examined by the ATTORNEY. GENERAL —lt was in
1842 that Dr. Achilli and his wife accompanied me to Corfu.
That was after he had been confined in the prisons of the
Inquisition. He was put in the passport, not as courier, but
as tutor.

Signor Giovanni Pastiniani examined by Mr. BADDELEY—
kam a jeweller at Corfu. I knew Dr. Achilli there; he has
come several times into my house. I know Garamoni. In
consequence of what Garamoni said I made observations on
the conduct of Dr. Achilli. Garamoni took me one evening
to see what took place. We went opposite the street on the
Esplanade, where Garamoni's house was. We watched from
nine till past eleven, but saw nothing, and then he said
" Let us see if my wife is on the balcony." We went in, but
saw no one in the balcony, but, as we passed, we heard a door
opened. The wife and mother-in-law lived together in that
house, but the husband did not reside with them at that
time. We saw a man come out of the door; by his stature
it appeared to be Dr. Achilli. We were only a few feet from
him. I knew him well as he had been several times into my
shop about making a seal. I knew Carraboni; his wife's
name was Albina. At this time she lived in several
houses, as she was a woman of loose character. I had com-
munications with her relating to Dr. Achilli. I never saw
her in his company; nor at his house.
William Larkins Reynolds examined by Sir A. Cociesionar
—I was employed in the lonian Islands by the Government
25 years. I was Inspector of Health and Collector of the
Customs, and am now retired on a pension. I recollect Dr.
Achilli calling at my house at Corfu, is company with some
friends. He spoke to me about establishing a Protestant
Italian Church in the island. This was in autumn, in 1844.
He asked for my co-operation and assistance for the pur-
pose. He stated he was about to take a house, and a few
days afterwards he did take a house close to mine. I used
my utmost exertions to get a good congregation, and to ob-
tain subscriptions for him. the chapel was opened about
the latter end of 1844. I attended the opening • and
I was struck by seeing a woman of notorious'
bad character sitting at the door, letting us in.
I knew her by sight, from having seen her in Ce-
phalonia leading the life of a common prostitute, whose
husband brought her friends to her. It was notorious she
. was a bad woman.. Her husband was a chorus singer, and
he acted as Achilles clerk, and read the Church of England
prayers. Finding such persons officiating in this capacity,
I told Dr. Achilli next morning I should be excessively
sorry to deprive him of good servants, whom, I dare say, he
had taken on the recommendation of some friend, as they were
Italians, but I thought it was improper to have them as
servants, particularly as he was an officiating clergyman. I
told him everything I knew of the woman and her husband.
To the best of my belief he said he was already aware of
her character that he had been intormed of
her previous life, but he hoped she had becomeas
a second Magdalen, and he considered it his duty,

Sunday, we eueaged the stockades on the banks
of the river. The Sesostris, Moozuffer, and Feroo%
had the brunt of the action. The fire from the Sesosand
burnt two other stockades, and before night the
m
whole were silenced. We engaged them at
300 to 500 yards, and our eight-inch shot and shells
were too much for their redoubtable stockades tostand. We killed about 300, and took or silenced
forty guns—some good 24 and 18 pounders, worked
by Englishmen, it is said. The next thing was to take

tremendous. The whole place was set on fire, and
two-thirds of it burnt down. The troops (the
18th, 51st, and 80th Queen's, Europeans, and two 114.10'
dras and one Bengal native regiments') stormed the
place and took it at once. It Wai very strove, being 20
feet high, ar.d covered in front by spikes. There were
100 guns on the walls, 40 of which are heavy, the rest
brass, 6 to 3 pounders, generally well mounted, besides
jingals innumerable. There was but little found in

of all, and has been complimented in most gratifying
terms by the Admiral. It was a fine sight at night
the stockades all burning, the roar of the 8 inch
guns, the flight of shell and rockets, and the
flames and bursting of the shells in the distant fort
formed a great tableau worthy of a master hand to
describe. That noble fellow Campbell, of the Se-
sostris, worked like a horse all the time of the bom-
bardment, till he fell down from sheer exhaustion, act
actually slept for an hour and a half within a couple of
yards of the 8-inch gun during the firing, and woke
up asking if they had stopped firing The charge of
the gun was 10Ib. of powder, and he had slept midis"
turbed by its repeated discharges ! The vessels
were struck repeatedly, but no one seas killed except
two poor fellows on board a transport towed up t,9
the Sesostris, both their heads being taken off by one
cannon ball. A poor young officer was mortally wounded,
also, on board the Sesostris, and died shortly after the
action. You will also probably see by the official ac-
counts what a gallant part Campbell took in the capture
of some of the stockades ashore, with his bluejackets.
For all this he was selected to carry the dispetches to
Calcutta, until the Admiral altered his mind, and decided
on taking them bit:reed,. •

TERMINATION of the GLADSTONE CASE.
Last night, at the usual meeting of Mr. Gladstone's
friends, the Rev. Gentleman, according to appointment.
gave a short statement of the conclusion to which he had
come respecting his future course. It appears, then, that
with the Rev. Mr. Driffield, the Rector of Bow, and some
other clergymen of the Established Church, and Dr. Cum-
ming, of the Scotch Chui cb, he went down to the seat of
Sir Culling E. Eardloy, Bart., and the result of their confer-
ence was, that Mr. Gladstone came to the determination to
accept an offer on the part of sit Culling and some friends,
to become the minister of Furrow-cross Free Episcopal
Church, Torquay, Devonshire. Ile will consequently give
up all thoughts of any appeal to the Privy Council, and
satisfy himself, as far as the law of the case is concerned,
with what he has seen in the Court of Arches. He does not
anticipate any opposition either from the Bishop of London
or from the Bishop of Exeter, as both in London and in
Exeter there are already persons precisely in the same posi-
tion. The chapel, moreover, is duly registered, and so
forth, so that at any time both chapel and minister may be
received into the Established Church, of which Mr. Glad-
stone still considers himself a member, although the bishop
has to all intents and purposes rendered bim no longer a
minister of it. The funds in hand, it is believed, will go a
groat way towards liquidating the debts and expenses inci-
dental to the legal proceedings, if they do not cover the
whole. . Two parties, one of whom Mr. Gladstone considered
highly eligible, are in treaty for the Long-acre Chapel
Morning Advertiser.
