blemished reputation that could sustain without
damage the general indignation that would be
aroused by the transaction. New schemes, there-
fore, must be devised to replenish the exhausted
treasury ; and what more brilliant than to extract
from the pockets of those already impoverished cre-
ditors a further contribution, on a promise hence.
forward to act more fairly than has heretofore been
the ease.

But this free gift to the Spanish Government is
not all that is demanded. The Bondholders are also
to consent to a reduction of the future rate of inte-
rest on their debts of no less than 2 out of the 5 per
cent. at present promised, or at least to which they
are legally and equitably entitled. A rather modest
request this, that the parties should immediately re-
linquish 50 per cent of their just demands, should
accept a compromise of 10s. in the pound from their
debtor. This sacrifice, heavy as it is, might be sub-
mitted to, if the amount of the composition were to
be paid in cash, or even sufficiently guaranteed by
other and more solvent sureties. But let us see what
is offered in return. Nothing, literally nothing—or,
rather worse than nothing ; the payment of
the residue is, forsooth, henceforward to be secured
on the Customs exclusively, and the creditor is to
give up his demand, for the payment of which the
entire of the revenues of the State are pledged, for
half the amount secured in one branch only of that
revenue, and that the branch a hich, from their in-
sane commercial policy is rendered comparatively
worthless ! As well might a bankrupt or insolvent
debtor offer to his creditors that, in case they should
consent to relinquish a moiety of their claims, and
to strike off the name of every endorser from their
bills who may be liable as a security, that he will
promise to pay them at his perfect convenience the
remaining balance, they being contented with his own
security for the performance of that promise.
There is little reciprocity in this ; it would savour
strongly of what is termed by lawyers nudum pactum,
where all the advantages would be on one side, and
no corresponding benefit of any sort to the other.
Persons do not generally make large sacrifices,
abandon considerable portions of their principal
money, and release and exonerate any portion of the
securities they hold, without some sort of considera-
tion ; therefore a proposition such as we have above
described would be scouted with well-merited in-
dignation if put forward by an individual, and such
will, no doubt, be the fate of that which has just been
submitted to the Spanish Bondholders.

Madrid papers of the 20th have arrived.
The QUEEN was to leave adrid for La Granja on
that day. The Moderadoes and Progresisstas are
busily engaged in holding electoral meetings, as a
dissolution of the Cortes is considered by no means
improbable. Money still continues very scarce, and
it is said there is no cash in the Treasury to pay the
troops what became due to them on the 10th. A
band of Carlists in Catalonia stopped the mail from
Madrid to Barcelona, burnt the coach, and took the
driver and courier prisoners.

The Court of Peers remained in secret deliberation
on the Cubieres case during the whole of Wednes-
day, and separated without coming to any decision.
They were to re-assemble the next day, when it was
supposed sentence would be pronounced, they having
already, it is said, determined upon a verdict of
guilty against all the accused. General CUBIERES
has sent to the KING his resignation of the dignity of
a peer, and of hi 3 commission as Lieutenant-General.

M. TESTE, since his late attempt at suicide is kept
under rigid surveillance. The Droil says—
"lt was reported yesterday that the per. on who took
the pistols to M. Teste loaded them himself ; but being
inexperienced in the use of such weapons, and not being
aware that they were screw barrels, loaded them from
the muzzles, and lett a vacuum between the powder and
the ball, which lessened the force of the shots. M.
Teste has, during the last two days, received numerous
visits, and is surrounded by all his late secretaries, who
never quit him."

Each day brings to light some fresh instance of
corruption on the part of the Beaurocracy of France.
The Presse says—

" It is affirmed that M. Ardit, Chief of the Bureau des
Prisons in the office of the Minister of the Interior, and
whose brother was compromised by the recent affair at
the liaison de Clairvaux, is removed from office. It is
added, that a judicial inquiry is about to take place."
Algiers papers to the 10th have been received. The
Moniteur Algerien of that date says—

" After having completed the pacification of the
mountains between Collo, Milah, and the sea coast, the
expeditionary column of Lieutenant, General Bedeau
was dissolved on the 30th ult. That of Bona, under
the orders of Colonel Senilhes, will continue until the
15th inst. its operations against the turbulent tribes of
the frontier. More detailed accounts from Morocco,
without contradicting the news already given by us, per
mit us to view it in a more favourable light. It appears
that Muley Abderrahman is decided this time to avenge
the insult he has received. The troops united
under the command of his son, Muley Mohammed,
are marching against the Emir, and the latter appears to
be very uneasy. No tribe has proclaimed him Sultan,
nor does any tribe, even in the Riff, seem disposed to
throw off the very light yoke of the old Emperor to im-
pose on itself in all the dangers of a revolution that of
the Emir, to whom is attached besides all the weight
of an eternal contest with us. In this position, Abd-
el-Kader endeavours to calm Abderrahman by very sig-
nificant acts of respect. He delares that he has no hos-
tile intention towards him, and ascribes his attack upon
the camp of El Hamar to the provocation and menaces
that he has received. If his excuses are not received,
everything tends to show that at this moment the advan-
tages are on the side of legitimate power. Thus the
events which at first occasioned us serious uneasiness
would lead to the most satisfactory and most unexpected
solution."

The Akbar of the 9th states that a great part of
the harvest in Algeria has been destroyed by locusts.
The Chamber of Deputies on Wednesday con-
cluded the discussion on the budget of expenses for
1848. The sitting was marked by a short explana-
tion from M. GUIZOT on the new arrangement
entered into by the French and English Governments
relative to certain islands of Oceania. An attempt
was made to have the discussion on the Lyons and
the Avignon Railway Bills postponed to next session,
but the Chamber decided that they should be disposed
of at once.

The Paris Bourse of Thursday was remarkable for
a considerable fall in prices that took place towards
the close of the market. Northern shares (ex divi-
dend) reached 573 i, which, with the dividend (or
interest of 4E) would indicate 577„ and they closed
at 565, being a fall from the highest price of Bif.
This decline was the more remarkable because the
returns of the receipts for the week ending Friday
last showed an increase of nearly 30,000 f., the gross
amount being 320,496 f.

The shares of all the other lines fell more or less,
but Government stock remained unaltered.

The Three per Cents. closed on the Paris Bourse on
Thursday at 771. 65c. ; the Five per Cents. at 118 f. 50c.;

TIIE NEWSVENDERS' ANNUAL DINNER.—That
useful class of society, the newsvenders of the metropolis,
partook of their annual dinner on Thursday, at Mr.'
Hinton's, Highbury Barn Tavern, Islington, about two
o dock. Nearly three hundred boys sat down to a most
excellent dinner, and who seemed highly delighted with
Vie festive scene. About seven o'clock nearly two
hundred men and their wives also sat down to a most
sumptuous dinner. Great praise is due to the stewards,
Messrs. Spilling, Wild, Violet, and Fielding, for the
able manner in which they conducted the dinner. About
ten o'clock the ball-room was thrown open, and dancing
was kept up till three o'clock in the morning. The
company departed highly gratified with the day's
amusement.

FATAL ACCIDENT ON TETE EASTERN COUNTIES
RAILWAY.—A fatal accident occurred on this line yes•
terday to Robert Parker, an engine-driver. It appears
that the deceased was driving a train of "empties," and
as he approached Manser Bridge, which is a " trussed"
one, he fancied that the feed-pipe of the engine had
become disconnected. He accordingly leant over the
engine to see, when he unfortunately struck against the
bridge, and was thrown from it on to the line. The
baenadrne wentn,
stoker being engaged at the time, did not miss the un-
fortunate man until the train arrived close to the He

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THPEE.
The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was quiet,
but steady. Sales 5,000 bales, of which 1,500 were on
speculation and for exportation. Total sales of the
week, 40,160 bales. Stock, 420,260 bales, against
763,180 bales a; this time last year. In Shares, likewise,
there was not a great deal doing, but prices remained
much the same.
The features in the Bank of England statement of
liabilities and assets for the week to the 10th inst. are
these:—

Increase
It will be observed from this that the changes, as
might be expected at the close of the quarter, have been
of some magnitude. With a large withdrawal of public
deposits, the Bank has been partly compensated by an
increase of other deposits, the public benefiting by the di-
vidend payments, and the railways replacing on their
own account what they had lodged with the Court of
Chancery until their Acts were obtained. To meet the
demands upon it the Bank, as usual, has obtained the
refunding of temporary loans, but in a week or two, and
perhaps even now, may be renewing its accommodation
to the full extent to customers and others. The pay-
ments from the Bank have been met partly by an exten-
sion of issues, and partly by a distribution of coin.
There are no late ship arrivals to-day, and but little
local news is to be obtained. Electioneering now en-
grosses chief attention, and the canvassing is conducted
with some spirit and zeal.
The Funds have been lower. Consols 884 to 89 for
transfer, and 89 to / for August. Exchequer-bills have
been 9s. to 12s. premium. The influence of the Consol
settlement being partially over, the Stock Market is now
quieter. Bank Stock is worth 196, and East India
Stock 2441. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents.
have been 91i to j.
The Foreign Securitiee have been very dull. Spanish
Five per Cents. are 211 to 1. Equador Bonds have
been at 31, and Chilien at 921. Dutch Two- and-a-Half
per Cents. 57i 1.
There is generally a steady market for Railway Shares,
but some few exceptions may be noted. Eastern Coun-
ties are flat, partly owing to a statement that the divi-
dend will not be supported. Windsor and South-
Western are higher, as it is expected the line will be
favourably leased. Northern of France Shares are
rather dull. Great Western are firmer, and Brighton a
shade lower.

BOW-STREET.-(THIS DAY.)

William Triphook and John Finley were charged with
uttering two t orged cheques, purporting to be signed by
Lord Skelmersdale, at Messrs. Coutta and Co.

Mr. George, a clerk, in the employment of Messrs.
Coutts and Co., said, that about a week ago, the prisoner
Triphook entered Messrs. Coutts', and presented a
cheque for I/. It was signed as if by Lord Skelmers-
dale, and payable to Mrs. Wheeler. It was indorsed,
"Pay Mr. Finley.—C. Wheeler." Witness paid it, and
the prisoner went away. This morning the prisoner
again offered a cheque for the same amount, and with
the same signature, which, however, he immediately per-
ceived to be a forgery. He told the prisoner so, and the
prisoner replied, " Why, I gave you one like it last
week, and you paid it." On referring to the file, witness
found that the first cheque was also a forgery, though he
had not observed it. He immediately gave the prisoner
into custody.
Mr. Mullens, who appeared for the prosecutors, ob-
served that he thought it would be necessary to examine
Triphook as a witness.
Policeman Thompson, F 98, was at the station when
the prisoner Triphook was brought in, and heard him
say that he got the cheque from Mr. J. Finley, the
brother of Mr. Finley, an artist in the Strand, in whose
service he (Triphook) was. Witness went to that per-
son's rooms, and took the other prisoner there. He said
that he gave the cheques to the prisoner, and had re-
ceived them in the way of trade.
The prisoner Triphook said that he received the first
cheque from another person in the emplo) ment of Mr.
Finley, the prisoner's brother. The second he received
from the prisoner himself this morning.
The prisoner Finley said that he was a tailor in
Birmingham, and had received the first cheque in the
way of trade from a person named Williams there.
Having some suspicions, from the small amount and from
its being written on a piece of common paper, and not on
a printed form, as usual, he sent it to his brother by
post, requesting him to send it to Messrs. Coutts's to get
it cashed. He delayed bringing his business to a con-
clusion until he heard from his brother that the cheque
was paid ; then, thinking that sufficient proof of the
genuineness of the cheque was given, he gave Wheeler
the goods he had bought and the change due out of 11.
Yesterday being in London he received the second
cheque by post from his father, who was managing his
business in Birmingham. He had the letter in which
his father endorsed the cheque, at his brother's house in
the Strand.

Mr. I lENRY allowed the prisoner to go home in charge
of the offices to look for the letter, and in a few minutes
he returned with it.
Mr. HENRY said that he was inclined to think the
letter was genuine, and the prisoner's statement true,
but it was a point of suspicion against Finley that when
he expressed his doubts as to the genuineness of the
first cheque, he did not make any inquiry as to the
character of the person who gave it him.
Mr. Mullens said that he thought Tripkook ought to
be discharged at once, ana the other prisoner admitted
to bail.

Mr. HENRY was of the same opinion, and it was ulti-
mately agreed that Finley should be liberated on giving
his own recognizance for 1001., and his brother's fur the
same sum, on condition that he should go at once to
Birmingham, with the officer, to endeavour to find
Wheeler, and give him in charge.
Triphook was accordingly discharged, and Finley en-
tered into the required recognizances to appear again on
Thursday next.
The parties then left the Court.

CLERKENWELL.—(THIS DAY.)
Daniel Hitchcock, who was brought up yesterday at
Lambeth Police-court, en'the charge of having murdered
two of his children about six or seven years ago, and
which charge rested upon his own confession, was
brought before Mr. Combe, in pursuance of Mr. Norton's
direction, for Enal examination, the alleged murder
having been committed within the Clerkenwell district.
Inspector Valentine stated that he had made in-
quiries since the prisoner surrendered himself, and two
persons were now in attendance, who could give the
Magistrate some information on the state of the pri-
soner's mind.

One of them, the prisoner's landlord, said he considered
him not to be sound in mind; while his employer stated,
that although eccentric occasionally, he never seemed
unconscious of the consequences of his actions.
Mr. COMM inquired what the nature of the person's
confession was ?

The inspector replied that he bad accused himself of
having, by means of arsenic, procured abortion twice
in a female with whom he resided.

Mr. COMBE said he could not see the slightest
grounds for suspecting that there was any foundation for
the crime of which the prisoner wished to make himself
appear guilty. The probability was that he had acted
as he had done through some morbid anxiety for noto-
riety, or perhaps by bringing the name of the female
before the public he thought to annoy the party to whom
she was now married. He should order him to be at
once discharged.

The self accused then left the court apparently very
reluctantly, and muttering something about great dis-
tress of mind for his imaginary crime.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

LIVERPOOL JULY MEETING.-THIIRSDAY.

THE CUP.—The race for this prize not having been
run until four o'clock, we were obliged to confine our
report sent by the express train to a bare return. We
subjoin the latest betting, and a brief sketch of the
running:—

Betting —5 to 1 agst Pic Nic, 5 to 1 agst Camera
Obscure, 6 to 1 agst Conjuror, 7 to 1 agst Quadruped,
10 to 1 agst Plaudit, 12 to 1 agst Inheritress, 12 to 1
apt Conspiracy, and 15 to 1 agst Pantasa. Inglewood
jumped off at starting, but was immediately passed by
Pic Nic, who went on with the running at a good pace,
followed by Inglewood, the latter waited on by Pantasa,
Inheritress, Conspiracy, and the Conjuror, with several
others laying up. Pantasa was beaten at the bridge turn,
but the other members of the front rank maintained
their positions to the last turn. Here Inheritress and
Rowena became second and third, and so remained to
the distance where they passed Pic Nic, Rowena by
sufferance having the lead; Inheritress came at the half
distance, took the lead at the stand, and won cleverly by
a length; Rowena beating I'ic Nic by half a length,
Chanticleer a bad fourth, and Plaudit fifth. Run in
3 min. 27 secs.

The attendance was immense, and the only drawbacks
on the enjoyment of an excellent day's sport were the
excessive heat of the weather, and the fearful confusion
that, for want of adequate police arrangements, pre-
vailed in the journey to and from the course; an amend-
ment in this respect has long been wanted.
