MONEY J[AItKET

•
AND
COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENC3,

TWELVE O'CLOCK.

There is nothing new to report in connection
with the money market, the rates still indicating
extreme easiness, and the inquiries moderate as re-
gards the requirements of trade.
The bullion taken to the Bank of England on Sa-
turday amounted to £32,000.
The directors of the St. John del Rey Mining
Company (Limited) have received per the steamer
Shannon the following report, dated Morro Velho,
April 29 :—Produce of division of April, 11 days,
'n,044 oitavas; yield, 7.506 oitavas per ton.
Mr. Ilitchin, the discoverer of the Devon Great
Consols, has inspected the works in operation at the
Great ewmrymlog, near Abervstwith, and reported
the mine as containing a vast amount of rich silver
lead ore.
It is stated that efforts are being made by some of
the influential shareholders of the European Bank
(Limited), now in course of liquidation, to procure
Searching investigation into the affairs and deal-
lega of that bank with the St. Nazaire Land Com-
pany (Limited), also in course of liquidation by the
Mme liquidator and solicitors, who represent both
companies.
From the manufacturing districts the accounts
for
the past week are in some instances of a more
?vourable character. Business at Manchester has
Peen more animated, and spinners and manufac-
turers have been well employed upon orders lately
given out for the Indian and Chinese markets,
prices generally ruling a shade higher. In
d e woollen districts of Leeds, Bradford, and Hud-
dersfield there has been a rather better demand for
_ inter fabrics, at steady rates, but, the operations
n seasonable goods have again been limited. The
hosieryu and lace trades of Leicester and Nottingham
h a're remained without material alteration, a fair
n
having been entered into in useful goods, at firm
ri;cea, while in the hardware districts of Birmingham,
a elleid, and Wolverhampton there has only been
thi"derate amount of activity in some departments,
d: Mills being only kept in working order four
ores in the week. There are, however, small
Athers in hand for some of the principal South
ea—eriean markets, while from North America and
r7an_ they have been comparatively small.

POLICE' INTELLIGEACE.—This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

AN ADMIRER OF TIIE EARL OF DERBY—John
Hill, a commercial traveller, residing at 28, Spencer-
road, Stoke Newington, was charged before Mr.
Flowers with being drunk and creating a dis-
turbance.

Sergeant Leech, 17 C, said that on Saturday
night the defendant went to the residence of the
Earl of Derby, No. 23, St. James's-square, and
demanded an interview with his lordship on im:
portant business. The defendant was told that he
could not see the Earl, and, as he was in a state of
intoxication, he (the sergeant) was sent for and
took him into custody.
The Defendant said he was exceedingly sorry for
what had occurred. He had a glass too much, and
could not account for acting as he had foolishly
done, as he was a great admirer of his lordship.
Mr. Flowers said as there was no desire on the
part of any one from the house to punish the
defendant, and as he hoped that his statement was
true, he would discharge him.

WESTMINSTER.

TAE USE OF MURDEROUS WEAPONS.—Peter and
Dennis Gee, brothers, were charged with assaulting
Thomas Caley with a bar of iron and a pair of
tongs, by which he had been wounded in the head.
Complainant said he lived at 1, Eliza-place,
Pimlico, where ho was standing on Saturday, night,
when Dennis came up, and saying, " You wanted
to fight my brother," struck him with his fist in the
mouth. They then had a fight, and afterwards
Dennis struck him with the piece of iron and Peter
with the tongs ou the head.
Dennis said they had a fair fight, and after that
Caley and his companions broke down their window
and forced their door, and there was a great dis-
turbance, and their mother had a severe blow given
her. _ _

Mr. SJlfe said he was determined to discounte-
nance the use of murderous weapons, which was, un-
fortunately characteristic of the lower conditions of
the Irish. Ile should fine defendants 405., or one
month.
