We have received the Paris papers of Thursday.

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 his commi,sion as Lieutenant-General.
M. TESTE, since his late attempt at suicide is kept
under rigid surveillance. The Droit 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 tv, apons, and not being
aware that they were screw barrels, loath. d them from
the muzzles. and lest a vacuum between the powd. r and
the ball, which lessened the force of the shots. M.
Taste has, during the last two d•i3 s, 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 dt s
Prisons in the office of the Minister of the Interior, and
whose brother was compromised by the recent affair at
the Maisun de Clairvaux, is removed from office. It is
added, that a judicial i, query is about to take place."
Algiers papers to the 10th have been received. The
Moniteur Algerien of that date says—
" After having completed the p mification 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 favourabl- 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. Gurzor 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 5734, which, with the dividend (or
interest of 4f.) would indicate 5774, and they closed
at 565, being a fall from the highest price of 84f
This decline was the more remarkable because the
returns of the receipts for the week ending Friday
last showed an increase of nearly 30,0001., the gross
amount being 320,4961.
The shares of all the other lines fell more or less,
but Government stock remained unaltered.

Thursday at 77f. 65c., the Five per Cents. at 118t1 50c.;

THE 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 clock. Nearly three hundred boys sat down to a most
excellent dinner, and who seemed highly delighted with
the 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 THE EASTERN COUNTIES
RAILWAY.—A fatal accident occurred on this line on
Friday 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
stoker being engaged at the time, did not miss the un-
fortunate man until the train arrived close to the Hert-
ford Junction, when he immediately reversed the engine
and went back to look for him. A train from Brox-
bourne was very close behind the "empties,"-and before
the signal of the stoker was observed, the ash-pan of the
engine struck the unfortunate man, who was lying dis-
abled on the line, and caused his immediate death.
FINANCE COMMITTEE.—REJECTED ADDRESSES.—
Through the kindness of a "friend in court" we have
been favoured with copies of several applications for the
post of clerk of a relief committee, forwarded to the
Finance Committee in reply to the advertisement which
appeared in our last publication.

(From The Jun -1 Sty ur:lo)
The Cotton Market at Liverpool yest, rd .y was viPt,
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 hales, against
763,180 13,1 es at this tim- last yi-ar. In Shar
there was not a great ckal d hot crices retria:ned

It will be observed from this that the changes, as
might be expected at the clo•ie 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 lace 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 4 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 2444. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents.
have been 914 to 4.
The Foreign S -curities have been very dull. Spanish
Five per Cents. are 21f to Ir. Equa for Bonds have
been at 34, and Ctiilian at 924. Dutch Two. and-a-Half
per Cents. 578 4.
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.

ENGLISH WOOL MARKET.—LEEDS, JULY 16.—We
have not any change to report this week. The demand
is ab ,ut the same a 3 the last few weeks. Prices are
stationary.
YORK WOOL MARKET, JULY Is.—Our market to-day
presented rath r an improved appearance. nearly all the
wool exhibited having been sold. Good lots were
eagerly sought after. and realised a small advance. In
other sorts there is no alteration.

Prices c intinue without any alteration. Business has

have
been in the town, but 'here is a moderately good b
usi-
ness doing by the Weigh houses.
BRADFORD. "1 lIURSDAY.—The supply of wools coming
V• market is rather on the increase, but limited by the
high prices sought by the growers, which acts as a draw-
back to more xtended operations. In prices there is
no change. nits and brokes are more inquired for, and
a shade better prices are realised. The demand fig' yarn
for h• me consumption continues active. The shippers
are also doing more, but there is no improvement in prices
to induce, the spinners to increase the present diminished
production. The continuance of the present beautiful
weather gives a tone of confidence in the piece market,
and both the home merchants and shippers are doing a
fair business. The stocks of Fine Cobourgs are light,
and the prices they are commanding will deter the
manufacturers from increasing the supply.
MANCHESTER, THURSDAY EVENING.—We have had
a large business in cloth this week, and the best proof
that can be given of an improved state of things is, per-
haps, that the carriers are all of them busy ; a great
contrast this from what was the case two or three months
ago. Prices, however, scarcely keep pace with the ad-
vance on the staple, but if the present demand continues,
all will soon be right, that is, the manufacturers and
spinners will be enabled to realise a fair profit. A very
large export business is going on. The home trade is
improving. raduall in-
LElCESTEll.—Confidence seems to be g y
creasing, and the workmen begin to be more generally
employed. The demand for cotton goods has prevented
straight-down worsted hose increasing, and stocks in
hand, both of that sort and regular wrought, are
tii
i
con-
sidered light for the season. A shipping tradede
is
doing in shirts and drawers. Yarns are more n demand; ,
the hosiers are laying in their stocks, believing they as
have
seen their lowest point. The spinners state they cannot
replace their stocks at the present price of wooly in
which more is doing at a trifling advance in late prices.
