LIVERPOOL-TUESDAY.

At this day's market there was only a small attendance
of the town and country trade, and the business done was
confined to small purchases for the supply of immediate
wants. Wheat, with a slow retail sale, may be quoted ld
per 100 lb. lower on the week. Flour offered at a decline
of 1s per sack and 6d per barrel. In oats and oatmeal there
was a fair business doing at full prices. Barley, beans, and
peas without change in value. Indian corn inquired for.
Fine Danube offering under 28s per 4801 b. found buyers.

THAMES.

CONVICTION OF A RUFFIAN.—James Hayley, a tall and
very rough and coarse-looking fellow, was brought before
Mr. Paget charged with violently assaulting John Fay, a
slight lad of 16.

The complainant was employed at the Golden Eagle pub-
lic-house in Rateliff-highway. Yesterday evening the pri-
soner entered the taproom there and lay down on one o
the benches. He was soon asleep. The boy received di-
rections to awaken the prisoner. He had no sooner done so
than the prisoner used foul language and abused him, and
then struck him a 'violent blow on the face and cut his
mouth. He made an attempt to kick the boy on the lower
part of his person, and would have succeeded if he had not
been seized by Mr. William Sargeant, the barman, who,
knowing the desperate character of the prisoner and his
strength, grasped him by the neck and held until a police-
man arrived. The prisoner was very violent on his way to
the station-house, and he was described by a constable
named John Ashmore, 341 K, to be the most disorderly
character in the Highway. The constable also said that
the prisoner was a returned convict, and had been four
years in penal servitude. He was obliged to call another
constable, and the prisoner threw them both down. They
had a struggle with him, and it was some time before they
succeeded in capturing him.
The prisoner, a morose-looking fellow, in a sullen man-
ner, said thatlhe was drunk last night, and that was all
about it.

Mr. Paget—You aro a very brutal fellow, and have
severely assaulted that boy, and attempted to injure him.
I have a good mind to send you to the sessions for trial.
You aro sentenced to be imprisoned for two months, and
kept to hard labour.
London, England, 1865-04-12

number of directors from six to eight it would be
necessary to convene a special meeting for that
purpose.

Mr. GOEZ contended that there was no necessity
for holding a special meeting to increase thenumber
of directors.

Mr. NICHOLSON differed from that view, and re-
commended that the special meeting should also in-
clude the revision of the absurd clauses in the com-
pany's articles of association.
Mr. GAINSFORD, the chairman of the associated
shareholders, declined to accept the responsibility of
selecting, in conjunction with the directors, two
shareholders to represent the associated interests at
the Board ; and would remit that matter wholly to
the directors.

It was agreed to pay the expenses out of pocket
of the committee of consultation during the past
six months. Thanks were voted to the committee
for their report, which was seconded by the Chair-
man and carried.

Some proprietors said they hoped Mr. Goez would
be one of the new directors, and the chairman trusted
Mr. Gainsford would agree to serve on the Board.
A vote of thanks to the chairman concluded the
proceedings.

Fall of a Public-house,

Last night great alarm was created in Broad-street, St.
Giles's, by a loud report, as of a falling building, and in a
few moments afterwards clouds of dust were seen to de-
scend from the upper portion of the Rosa and Crown
public-house. It was soon discovered that the back and a
portion of the side walls had given way, and that nearly
the whole of the lower part of the building was a heap of
rubbish. Fortunately there were no lives lost.

LEOMINSTER.

This borough will be sharply contested at the next elec-

tion, two new candidates being already in the field. Mr.
Gathorne Hardy, who it was stated was about to contest
Oxford, has been down •canvassing the electors, and de-
clares his intention to offer himself again for Leominster
at the next general election, and to go to the poll. The
other sitting member, the Hon . C. S. Bateman Hanbury
Lennox, has issued an address to the electors stating
that it is not his intention to offer himself again, and
in his place Sir A. Walsh declares himself a candidate.
He says :—" My political principles are those of Con-
servative progress. Myself a sincere member of the
Church of England, I am at the same time an advo-
cate of religious toleration, and would gladly welcome
any measure whereby those who conscientiously ob-
ject to the payment of church-rates might be wholly ex-
empted from them, but so that the connection between
Church and State may not be impaired." He also professes
himself ready to give his most anxious consideration to
any well-digested scheme for the reform of the representa-
tion of the people which does not aim at the subversion of
our existing institutions."

we take to have been unquestionably " Fabiola"—
will doubtless, if only by reason of its having been
one of the very last to come under his revision
shortly before his demise—must always, we should
say, possess an especial and peculiar interest of its
own for the mass of his co-religionists.

HAY MARKETS

SMITHFIELD.—Meadow hay, £4 10s to £slos Od ; clover,
£5 10s to IG lOs Od ; and straw, £1 Gs to £1 lOs per load.
Trade firm.

CUMBERLAND.—Meadow hay, £4 lOs to £5 15s; clove;

COLONIAL.

TEA.—There have been no transactions of importance,
the trade having postponed their operations until the public
sales, which commence to-day.
SuaAn.—The demand has been inactive, although prices
have remained without change of importance. In the
Refined Market, however, a fair business has been done in
stored goods at full prices. _

COFFEE.—There has been a moderate inquiry for superior
descriptions of Plantation Ceylon, which has fully main-
tained former rates. Other qualities remain at nominal
quotations.

EICE.—A moderate business has been reported in East
India, and prices are well sustained.
TALLOW.—The market has been dull, without, however,
any material change as regards quotations, P.Y.C. on the
spot being 40s 9d ; all the month, 40s 6d ; and last three
mouths, 42s per cwt.

RAILWAY TRAVELLING IN 1865.—As Parlia-
mentary papers are preserved and form a portion of the
history of the time, it is worthy of notice that there has
just been placed among them an official report made by the
Government Inspector of Railways, in which he makes the
following statement in relation to railway travelling:—
" Gentlemen passengers, as well as railway officers of all
classes, constantly refuse to travel singly with a stranger
of the weaker sex, under the belief that it is only common
prudence to avoid in this manner all risk of being accused,
for purposes of extortion, of insult or assault." This may
one day be thought a singular indication of the manners and
customs of the English in the year of grace 1865.
IHE ACCIDENT AT THE GROSVENOR HOTEL.--
Yesterday afternoon Mr. C. St. Clair Bedford resumed an
inquiry at the Grosvenor Hotel relative to the death of
Ambrose Rosebrook and Emile Coussement, who were
killed by the falling of a case or lift in the above hotel on
Monday night week. The jury returned a verdict of acci-
dental death in hotit cases.

WARWICK.

The contest here is progressing actively. Mr.
Peel, the Liberal candidate, was to have addressed
the electors last night (Monday), at Emscote.
Neither of the Conservative candidates has yet ap-
peared in public. On Saturday evening a numer-
ous meeting in connection with the Liberal Regis-
tration Association was held, at which a very en-
thusiastic feeling in favour of Mr. Peel was dis-
played. Mr. Peel expresses his approval of Mr.
Baines's Bill. Mr. Repton, referring to the subject
of reform, says in his address :
"I think that the true principle of representative govern-
ment is that every interest should be duly represented ;
but any system of representation based on the principle of
representing numbers is inconsistent with true liberty.
Recent events in America have confirmed that opinion.
But, at the same time, any proposal for admitting the more
intelligent members of the working classes to the privilege
of the franchise shall be honestly considered by me."

THE SAVINGS BANK FUND.

Mr. HENLEY asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer
whether the sum of £7,703 4s. 9d., stated in Parliamentary
Paper, No. 328, of session 1865, to have been paid under
the authority of the Act 3 and 4 Will. 4, c. 14, out of the
fund for the banks of savings, ought not to have been paid
out of the fund upon which the establishment of the Com-
missioners for the Reduction of the National Debt was
chargeable ; and whether the sums of £255 14s. 2d. and
£297 108., being the amounts charged in columns 1 and 2
of the same Parliamentary paper, ought not, under the
Act 26 and 27 Vic., c. 87, to have been charged upon the
fund upon which the establishment of the Commissioners
for the Reduction of the National Debt was chargeable.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said the
payments were all perfectly regular, and charged to the
proper fund. The right hon. gentleman could raise the
question if he thought proper.

LEICESTERSHIRE (NORTH).

An active canvass is now being carried on in this
division between the friends of Lord John Manners,
Mr. E. B. Hartopp, and Mr. C. H. Frewen, the
latter in opposition to the noble scion of the house
of Rutland. As the three candidates are Conserva-
tives, some degree of interest is felt in the matter,
but the general belief is that the close of the contest
will find the representation of the northern division
of the county in the same hands as at present.
London, England, 1865-06-20

IPSWICH.

Mr. H. W. West and Mr. 11. E. Adair, the Libe-
ral candidates for this borough, have issued their
addresses. Mr. West avows himself a firm adherent
to that party which has identified itself with all the
great measures of reform carried in England during
the memories of living men. He is prepared to sup-
port a £lO occupation franchise in counties and one
of £6 in boroughs. He would vote for the abolition
of church rates. Although he regrets that Lord Pal-
merston's Government should not have persisted in
their scheme of reform, they would have such sup-
port as he could give them in Parliament. Mr. Adair
says the guiding principle of his political conduct
has been, as regards the franchise, inclusion, and

MARLBOROUGH.

Lord Ernest Bruce, who has represented this
borough more than 30 years, is again a candidate
for re-election.

STAFFORD.

At an influential meeting of the electors held on
Saturday evening it was decided to request Viscount
Sandon, the eldest son of the Earl of Harrowby, to
allow himself to be put in nomination at the next
election. He professes Liberal-Conservative prin-
ciples. Mr. Walter Meller, of Broadlands, Surrey,
who is a candidate in the Conservative interest, ad-
dressed the electors on Friday evening. Captain
Salt, the present Conservative member, announces
that owing to business engagements he will not seek
re-election_. The Liberal, candidates will be Aldor-
man Sidney, one of the present members, and Mr.
M. A. Bass, son of the representative for Derby.

LITERATURE.

Life of Edward Irving. By Mrs. Oliphant. Fourth
Edition. One vol., pp. 442. Hurst and Blackett.
Mrs. Oliphant's impressive biography of that
singularly gifted as well as eccentric being, the late
Edward Irving, by its issue in this compact and beauti-
ful edition, takes rank henceforth (as the thirtieth
volume of the series) in the Publishers' Standard
Library— aLibrary as valuable as it is miscellaneous.
So miscellaneous is this Library in its charac-
ter, that while the thirtieth volume in its periodical
but uncertain issue is this Life of Irving by
Mrs. Oliphant, one of the earlier volumes of
the set, the eighth, in fact, comprised within it
the " Recollections of the Last Four Popes," by his
Eminence the late Cardinal Wiseman. Leading off
with. Sam Slick's " Nature and Human Nature"—
a book that ought by rights, we have often thought,
to have been been dubbed more accurately " Natur'
and Human Natur' "—Hurst and Blackett's Stan-
dard Library has embraced within it, books as varied
in their character as Miss Dinah Mulock's enthralling
tale of " John Halifax, Gentleman," Leigh Hunt's
pleasantly garrulous and gossipping " Old Court
Suburb," Sir Bernard Burke's very curious
" Domestic Annals of the Aristocracy," Sergeant
Peter Burke's equally curious "Romance of the
Forum," Mr. Jeaffreson's delightfully anecdotal
" Book about Doctors," the Hon. Mrs. Norton's
powerful story of "Lost and Saved," Victor
Hugo's wonderful Romance of convict and street
life in France, " Les Miserables," a work that we
hardly hesitate to pronounce the great poet's mas-
terpiece—and now, by way of vivid contrast to these
and twenty other works not here particularised, the
subscribers to the Messrs. Hurst and Blackett's
Standard Library have had placed by the side
of its twenty-nine predecessors upon the same
bookshelf, Edward Irving's Life as it has been
written by the
.hand of Mrs. Oliphant. It is not
simply by any means a mere biography—a mere dry
formal record of facts and dates about its hero.
It is in many parts of it an earnest and even im-
passioned panegyric. But it is so manifestly sin-
cere throughout in its enthusiasm that it is impos-
sible even for us, who—we will acknowledge it—
don't sympathise the least atom in the world with
the views set forth by this remarkable creature—a
born genius if ever there was one--it is just simply
impossible even for us to note the true and
unaffected enthusiasm here evidenced by Mrs.
Oliphant for the life and character of Edward
Irving—and to do so altogether unimpressed !
It is a wonderful study of a truly wonderful
and a purely exceptional idiocyncrasy. If regarded
only in that light it is well worthy of examination.
But among the surviving friends of Edward Irving,
among his ardent admirers, among his devoted
followers, the interest awakened by Mrs. Oliphant's
biography of the man can be nothing less than
absolutely enthralling.

Commissioners was previously obtained for the substitution

President of the Hospital of Christ at Ruthin ; and the
like consent for the substitution of the Bishop of Oxford
for Bishop of Lincoln, as trustee of Lady Conyngham's

Both Liberals and Conservatives claim to have a

it is understood that Mr. J. T. Paget, who was to
have come forward on behalf of the Liberal interest,

of that gentleman, the return of Mr. C. W. Packe

as nut to be distinguished fro a the originals by the closest
observer; they will never change colour or decay, and will
be foun i superior to any teeth ever before used. This
method does not require the e‘itraction of roots, or any pain-

loose, and is guaranteed to restore articulation and mastica-

WESTMINSTER.

A meeting of Mr. John Stuart Mill's committee
was held last evening at St. James's-hall, Dr. Brewer
in the chair, at which the following resolution was
arrived at :

"That while this committee desire to preserve their per-
fect independence, and to carry out fully the great prin-
ciples they have professed, they believe the time has now
come when they should attempt to arrive at a mutual un-
derstanding with Captain Grosvenor's committee, in order
that the Liberal intewst in Westminster may not be divided,
and that, should such an understanding be attained, this
committee will pledge themselves to use every honourable
effort to secure the return of Captain Grosvenor in conjunc-
tion with Mr. John Stuart Mill."

KING'S COUNTY.

Mr. Pope Hennessy has issued an address to the
electors of King's County. He says
" From the principles on which you elected me I have
never for a moment swerved, and I now reaffirm the un-
broken pledges of 1859. I do not believe that reform will
be the battle-cry of the future. Ireland will be the ques-
tion for the new Parliament. England and Scotland exhibit
popular content and general prosperity ; but with us it is
very different. Our people—the ultimate source of national
wealth and national strength—are rapidly leaving the
country. Tho Queen's Ministers voted against my resolu-
tions on this subject, and refused to express the slightest
regret for the grievous decline of the population. Wore
they guilty of no other act of neglect and misgovernment,
that alone should render them unworthy of our confidence.
It is not, however, the first time that Liberal professions
and Whig principles have deceived and destroyed the
people. No Government shall ever receive my support
which is not prepared to stake its existence on the fulfil-
ment of a just and generous policy to Ireland ; such a policy
as will unite and not divide our various interests ; above
all, such a policy as will effectually preserve the Irish
race."

BERWICKSHIRE.

Mr. Davidßobertson, Lord-Lieutenant and mem-
ber for Berwickshire, has issued an address, solicit-
ing a renewal of the honour of representing the
county. He considers that Lord Palmerston's Go-
vernment has been well entitled to the confidence
of the country ; and in reference to the charge that
the Government and Parliament have done nothing
during the last six years, he asks, is it nothing to
have maintained the peace of this country during
the war in America, " which has produced a state of
things unparalleled in the history of nations and of
mankind ;" and to have abstained on the grounds
of sound international policy from being parties to
a Continental war " which would have deluged
Europe in blood, checked the progress and pros-
perity of every country in it, and expended count-
less treasure without, probably, attaining the de-
sired end? Is it nothing to have made the great
French treaty, and to have expanded the trade of
England with our nearest and best allies, and to
have thus filled up so opportunely the gap in our
commerce created by the desolating war in the
United States ? Is it nothing to have removed up-
wards of 10 millions of annual taxation, to have
paid off between 15 and 20 millions of the national
debt, and to have reduced our expenditure by some
three millions per annum, and yet to have preserved
our civil and military establishments in a state of
the most perfect efficiency ?"

IPSWICH.
Mr. H. W. West and Mr. H. E. Adair, the Libe-
ral candidates for this borough, have issued their
addresses. Mr. West avows himself a firm adherent
to that party which has identified itself with all the
great measures of reform carried in England during
the memories of living men. He is prepared to sup-
port a £lO occupation franchise. in counties and one
of £6 in boroughs. He would vote for the abolition
of church rates. Although he regrets that Lord Pal-
merston's Government should not have persisted in
their scheme of reform, they would have such sup-
port as he could give them in Parliament. Mr. Adair
says the guiding principle of his political conduct
has been, as regards the franchise, inclusion, and
