COMMERCIAL.

NEW YORK, JULY 11.—The supply of money has
somewhat increased since our last report. The demand
is still fictive. It was more freely offered in the Street
to-day, which had a good effect upon the stocks at the
second board. The banks, however, showed no disposi-
tion to extend their lines. In uncurrent money there is
but little offering, and business with the brokers is un-
commonly dull. Foreign Exchange is in fair demand,
and rates are firm. Exchange on England was firm at
1101 to 1101,
Cotton—The sales reported on 'Change were 800
bales, and subsequently about 400 bales were sold. Prices
were fully a quarter cent higher than yesterday, and in
some in some instances a half cent advance was paid.
The improved feeling is attributed to the advices from
Texas with regard to the injury done to the grow-
ing.: crop.
Flour—Since the arrival of the last steamer the market
bas lost its buoyancy, and prices have declined, closing
quiet and heavy.
Grain—For some days past there have been but few
transactions, and the market closes heavily.
Freights—A slight decline has taken place in rates to
Liverpool.

VISIT OF THE CITY POLICE TO THE ROYAL
EXHIBITION.—On Thursday last Daniel Whittle Harvey,
Esq., the Chief Commissioner of the City Police, issued an
order, announcing to the sergeants and men of the force,
that in consequence of the fatiguing duties they have had
to perform since the opening of the Exhibition, her Majesty's
visit to the City, &c., four days next week, Monday, Tues-
day, Wednesday, and Thursday, will be allowed as a holy-
day to the different divisions by rotation, so as to enable
them to visit the Crystal Palace in Hyde-park. Hitherto
the constables belonging to the City Police have been allowed
one week's furlough during the fine season, but in conse-
quence of the Exhibition, that liberty cannot be granted to
them.
CREMORNE GARDENS.—Last night Mdlle. Palmyre
Garneron made a successful balloon ascent from this excel-
lent al fresco place of amusement. The evening was very
fine, and highly favourable for aerial navigation. After
rising steadily for a few hundred feet, the balloon took a
south-westerly direction, and after a short but pleasant pas-
sage across the river, Mdlle. Garneron effected a safe descent
on Wandsworth-common. The gardens were very full.
THE GREAT EXHIBITION.—An interesting event
was well nigh taking place on Wednesday, which would
have rendered the Great Exhibition the birthplace of a
o si
which
youthful visitor. A young lady, accompanied by her hus-
band and two female friends, who had been waiting for
time at the south entrance, in the vain hope fsymptoms obtaining
wiolm
conveyance, was suddenly seized with
indicated that she was on the point of becoming a mother.
W ith the aid of Mr. Duncombe, the assistant secretary, and

several other of the officials, the lady was

derstand that both mother and child are progressing as
a lapse
favourably as might be expected under the peculiar circum-
stances of the case.

ASSAULT ON THE HIGH-SHERIFF OF MAYO.—
CASTLEBAB, JULY 22.—A3 the High-Sheriff of Mayo, Mr.
David Ruttlege, was walking in front of the Court-house to-
d4y with a friend, during the sitting of the grand jury, he
was eccosted by a Captain Fitzmaurice, who resides in the
neighbourhood, and asked if a grand juror's summons, which
he produced, requiring his attendance at the assizes, had
issued from his office? The sheriff replied that be was not
aware, but he supposed it had. The gallant gentleman,
who was greatly excited, said he had not been called on
the grand panel, and he supposed' it was the sheriff's inten-
tion to insult him, and, using several offensive epithets, he
applied a cutting whip pretty smartly three or four times to
the shoulders of the sheriff before the assault could be stayed.
It is supposed the matter will go to the Queen's Bench.—

THE FATAL RIOTS IN LIVERPOOL.7-LIVEILPOOL,
FRIDAY.—The adjourned inquests on the bodies of Jones and
Malin, two of the victims of the riots consequent on the
Orange processions in this town, were resumed this morning
before the coroner of Liverpool. Mr. Dowling, the police
commissioner of Liverpool, said that on the day of the pro-
cession, &pont nine in. the morni9g, he was riding towards
the North Docks, having been to inspect a division of men
whom he had ordered to be in readiness in case they should
be required. He then heard that the Irish Catholics were
coming out, and immediately di,patched orders to Mr.
Quick to march to London-road. He (Mr. Dowling) soon
afterwards met Mr. Towers,n, with whom he proceeded to
the scene of the disturbance, and separated the belligerent
parties, after which no more violence was offered. He then
put himself at the head of about 150 of the police, and, in
company with Mr Towerson, followed the procession through
the whole of the southern parts of the town, to be ready to
act in case of any emergency Subsequently he sent Mr.
Towerson to the north, and the procession finally separated
about two o'clock into lots or lodges to dine at their respec-
tive places of meeting.—Ajuror inquired if any other fatally
had occurred from the procession than those which they were
now inquiring into ? Mr. Dowling said that another man
was stabbed at eleven o'clock the next night. Several other
witnesses having been examined, the Coroner summed up,
and the jury, after a brief conversation, gave a verdict o'
" Manslaughter."
