MURDER IN KERRY.—We have just heard of a 112,.117„,1
der committed a few nights since in Listowel. It apPe'--
that a party of peasants were up at night in the tow"
drinking and playing at cards, and that having broken'
up after some dispute, one left for his residence in tha
country. Before he went far he was pursued, and being
overtaken had his brains dashed out with stones, by 1111
less than half a dozen assailants. The deceased ra511::
name was Carty, and he lived near Gunsborougb
was a young farmer in comfortable circumstances, havius'
been married only six months. Some six or seven Per•
sons aie in Custody on suspicion 'of having been cOll--
cerned in the attack on him.
SUSPICION or MURDER,—On Sunday evening last
poor woman called at the house of a farmer at Irlaint-
o'-th'-Heights, having a child of three months old Wit"
her, requesting that she might be allowed to warm bar;
• self. She remained there about 20 minutes. IsTeli,
morning the child was found lying partly on a little- beod
by the side of the river, and partly in the water, and
was quite dead. The mother has not been found, an
whether she has committed suicide, or whether she ir1..411r.
dered the child only, is not known. An inquest '—
opened yesterday afternoon, before Mr. G. O. Rutter,
county coroner, but was ultimately adjourned that more
evidence might be sought for.
THE OUTRAGE ON THE LONDONDERRY RAILWAY.ci
Pursuant to a requisition numerously signed, addresee.
to the Worshipful the Mayor, a meeting of the inbabl.
tants of the city and neighbourhood of LondonderrY
held in Corporation-hall on Friday, at the hour of one,
o'clock, to take into consideration the proper steps
be adopted towards discovering the perpetrators of the
late diabolical outrage, and to give expression to the
general feeling of horror at that atrocious attempt 011
human life. Resolutions pledging the meeting to ral°
a subscription to enable a committee (which was forme a
child,
to offer a large sum of money for the discovery of the
offenders having been agreed to, the meeting broke U.
MYSTERIOUS CIRCUMSTANCE.—On Monday
d)
about three months old, was found drowned close to the
river Irwell, near Irlams-e'-th'-lieights, Lancashire,
under the following circumstances :—A woman had
called with it on Sunday evening at a farmer's house in
the neighbourhood, and asked leave to warm herself and
child. She was permitted to do this, and, after remain
ing about 20 minutes, left the house. There is now
reason to believe that she purposely drowned the child,
but, as she has not since been heard of, whether she
committed suicide also, is matter only for conjecture.
An inquest was opened by Mr. G. 0. Rutter, county
coroner, yesterday, but bad to be adjourned. It appears
the child lead been drowned, or suffocated, not in the
river, but in a shallow pool of water close by the river.

MONEY MARKET

AND
COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, TWO o'CLOCK.

The sales of cotton at Liverpool yesterday
were estimated at 6,000 bales, including 5,000
American taken for export and on speculation.
The market closed without change in tone or
prices. The sales comprised 4,000 American,
170 Pernam and Maranham at 51d. to 6id., 100
Egyptian at 6d to 6101., 150 Sea Island at is. to
2s. 10d., and 1,500 Surat at 3d. to 41d. per lb.
Railway shares were dull and heavy.
Accounts from Nishegorod, in Russia, state that
the fair of that place was well frequented this sea-
. son both by buyers and sellers, Russian and foreign.
The tea brought from China by the Russian cara-
vans sold well. In one week the quantity of
goods sold represented the sum of 8,000,000 francs,
and in the same short space of time merchandise to
the amount of 17 millions of francs was forwarded
to the interior of the empire. Government had
paid great attention to the improvement of the
roads, and the navigation of the Volga had been
greatly extended. Thus far, therefore, the war
has not had a particularly injurious effect, and it
is even probable that the obstacles to business at
the outports may have benefitted this great internal
mart.
By telegraph we learn the arrival of the steamer
Baltic from New York, with advices of the 16th
inst. The amount of specie on board was 1,255,508
dollars. The Money market at New York was
easier, and there was a more cheerful feeling in
business circles. Exchange on London 109 to
109. i. The commercial reciprocity treaty with
Canada had been ratified by the President. In
breadstuffs less was doing and prices drooped.

By the electric medium there is intelligence of
August 19th from Calcutta, August sth from Can-
ton, and corresponding dates from other places ;
besides Sydney advices of July 21st, Melbourne
of July 25th, and Adelaide of the 29th. In India
and Australia trade is reported dull, but the season
of the year would account for this. Gold at Port
Philip' was 41. per ounce. The exchange at Shang-
hai was Gs. Id., and at Canton 4s. 11d. per dollar.
Information of a painful character has just been
received at Loyd's, viz., the loss of the splendid
steamer City of Philadelphia from Liverpool. She
stranded at Chance Cove, Cape Race, on the 7th
inst. Her crew and passengers were landed at St.
John's, Newfoundland. She had on board a large
and valuable cargo shipped from Liverpool. There
are 70,0001. insured on the steamer, and the cargo
is likewise heavily insured at Lloyd's. Being of
iron, it is apprehended that there will be no great
salvage made.

Bills of exchange upon the principal continental
cities were negotiated yesterday afternoon at fuller
rates generally. Paris, 90 days, 25 27i to 322 ;
Antwerp, 25.322 to 35 ; Amsterdam, 11 18 to 18f ;
Ramburgh, 13'61 to 61; Frankfort, 118 k to 1 ; and
Trieste, 11 42 to 48. The demand for gold has
fallen off.
There has been a slight increase of firmness in the
English Stock Market, arising principally from the
improvement in the foreign exchanges, but the
business doing is still very restricted. Consols
have been 95 to 951 for transfer,. and 95 for ac-
count. Exchequer Bills continue at 6s. to Os.
prem.•• The Bonds have been 99- for those to ex-
pire iu 1858, and 992 4 for those of 1859.
The decline in Turkish Scrip continues, and the

members of the " House" and the speculative pub.
lie not coming forward to give it support. The first
price was 2i, and subsequently there have been
bargains at 22 premium. Portuguese 4 per Cents.
have been quoted 401. Peruvian 4 per Cents.

The following are the nominal prices of foreign
stocks :—Grenada Deferred Bonds, 6 to q ;

18 to 184 ; ditto 3 per Cents., 371 to 38 ; ditto

announces that the amount of interest payable on
the respective certificates is as follows

"On a certificate of 5 shares 1 3 10

"The directors take this opportunity to state, that
about, one-half the line was opened for traffic on he 3d
July, and nearly the whole (so as to secure both the pas-
senger and merchandise through traffic between Ant-
werp and Rotterdam) is expected to be opened in No-
vember next. The weekly receipts (which have much
exceeded the calculation of the directors) may be seen
by any shareholders at the offices of the company."
The following circular has been issued, under
date the 13th instant, by the East Lancashire Rail-
way Company
" Referring to the supplemental Report, submitted to
the extraordinary general meeting of the shareholders
of this company, held on the 16th August, I am
instructed by the directors to inform you that they
have again met the Lancashire and Yorkshire board on
the subject of the proposed amalgamation ; and they
find that the views of that board differ so materially from
those of the East Lancashire directors, as to the object
and effect of the sth clause of the agreement, that the
negotiations for an amalgamation of the two companies
are new at an end.
" Under these circumstances, the East Lancashire
directors have instructed me to state that the adjourned
extraordinary general meeting of the company, intended
to have been held on the 25th instant, will not take

place."
In the English Railway Market there has been
no general improvement, and prices vary accord-
ing to the particular circumstances of each line,
though flatness is more generally prevalent. The
foreign undertakings have been steady.
Mines are dull. Great Nugget Vein are lower,
as the Sydney accounts overland report that there
will be no dividend. The banks are quiet. The
Crystal Palace are firmer.
