MONEY DIARKET

AND
COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE,

TWELVE O'CLOCK.

A small amount of business is going on in the
discount market, but it developer no new feature
worthy of record.
Gold to the amount of £lB,OOO was taken to the
Bank of England yesterday.

The Omar Pasha has arrived from Melbourne
with gold to the amount of £159,976.
A meeting had been announced for the 26th inst.
of the shareholders of the London and Brighton
Railway. Mr. S. Laing, the chairman, has issued
a circular respecting the financial affairs and the
amalgamation with the South-Eastern company.
A circular has been issued by the Metropolitan
Railway, containing a plan by which money may be
raised on the mortgage of the property upon suoh
terms as will afford to the shareholders in the first
instance a perfectly safe and valuable investment.
This plan will be submitted to the next meeting of
the shareholders, that bonds having ten years to run,
and bearing 5 per cent. interest, should be issued on
the security of the freehold property of the com-
pany. These bonds are to be redeemable at 10
prem. by annual drawings, commencing five years
after issue, and the whole to be paid off within
the 10 years. The bonds will be offered
in the first instance pro rata to the share-
holders. They will be exclusively secured
on the property of the company. The rents re-
ceived and sales expected will alone: form: the; fund
out of which the interest will be paid and the prin-
cipal liquidated. The railway and its earnings will
be unaffected by the proposed arrangement ; it will
be, in fact, a loan obtained upon the surplus pro-
perty of the company, and as such will neither add
to the capital nor abstract from the revenue of the
Metropolitan Railway.

In the Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets
during the last few days there has been very little
animation. In sugar the dealings have been prin-
cipally for exportation, and prices have shown no
material change. Coffee has been inactive conse-
quent upon large arrivals, and the quantity en route
for this country being considerable. Rice has been
in moderate request, chiefly for exportation, while
in tallow the operations have only been on a
restricted scale at about former quotations.

Two o'CLoor.

Business in all the Stock Exchange markets is, if
Possible, more inactive than it has been within the
last few days, and most of the quotations are merely
nominal. Consols are a shade lower at 944 4 for
money and 944 for the account. The New Threes
are 934 1 ; Reduced Annuities, 934 4 ; Exchequer
Bills, 245. for June ; India 5 per Cent., 1111 4 1 ;
ditto 4 per Cents., 994.

not important. Greek have advanced 4, to 144 4 ;
Italian 1, to 49 4 ; but Turkish 5 per Cents. have
declined '4, to 301 4 ; and Chilian Scrip 4, to 2 1
die. ; Mexican remain at 154 4 ; Spanish Passive
at 214 22 ; the Certificates at 164 4 ; and Russian
Scrip at 14 prem.
A very limited amount of business has been tran-
!acted in the Railway Share Market, and in many
instances prices are a shade flatter. North Western,
Midland, and South Eastern have each declined 4,
and North Eastern and Berwick. 1; while Great
Western have improved 4.
In the Foreign and Colonial lines there has been
little variation. Dutch Rhenish are dealt in at
23/ ; Great Luxemburg at 104 ; East Indian at
1084 4 ; Great Indian and P eninsula at 1074 4 ;
and Madras 5 per cents. at 1004.
Bank shares continue in very moderato request.

tile of India, London and China, to 26 ; London
and Westminster to 103 104 ; and Consolidated
Bank to 44.

In American Securities Erie shares have advanced
f, to 46/ 47i, and Illinois f, to 76i 77 ; but

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

THE DESPERATE ATTEMPT AT SELF-MURDER.--Martin
Reynolds, a bootmaker, living in Little Windmill-street,
charged with attempting to take his life by stabbing him-
self, was again brought before Mr. 'Tyrwhitt.
The prisoner was seen by a fellow-lodger stabbing him-
self in the stomach, but was seized by him and proventod
doing further mischief to himself, and taken to the
hospital.
Mr. Oswain Vince, house-surgeon of the Middlesex
Hospital, attended to-day, and said the prisoner was
admitted to the hospital on the Bth of July, having
stabbed himself in the stomach, and ho remained there
till last Wednesday.
Mr. Tyrwhitt asked the witness whether he noticed
anything particular in the prisoner's conduct.
Mr. Vince said he appeared rather strange.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said it was a very awkward thing for a
magistrate to discharge such a man without any friends to
look after him, the more especially as he
,believed he had
already been in an asylum.
The prisoner said he had never been in an asylum.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said it was a clear case of deliberate at-
tempt to commit suicide.
The prisoner said he had no friends. Ho was a native
of Ireland.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said if he discharged the prisoner and he
destroyed himself it would be laid at his door. He would
again remand the prisoner, and he hoped if publicity Was
given to the matter that some of his friends would come
forward and take care of him.
WESTMINSTER.

THE ►SULTAN'S VISIT TO THE ►SOUTH KIINSINGTOX
Musrm.—Edward Eardon, a servant at 9, Chester-place,
Hyde-park-square, was charged with being drunk and
assaulting the police.
George Edmonds, 332 13, said that he was on duty at
the South Kensington Museum last evening at twelve
o'clock, when the defendant said he would go in and
forced his way forward. Defendant was drunk and struck
him in the breast. Ho was attacked by three or four more,
who said they would go in.
Mr. Arnold—Was that at the time the Sultan was there?
Constable—Yes, your worship, Tho defendant was
drunk.

Mr. Arnold—What did he say he wanted to go in for?
Constable—Nothing that I heard.
Defendant—My ladies went to the Horticultural Gar-
dens last night. The carriage was ordered at a quarter to
12, and I went. The police were driving the servants
back, and an altercation occurred with one that was trying
to get to his people. I came off the box of my carriage
and got by the side of another, who was in livery. Wo
wore all trying to get to our people, but the police would
not let us.

Mr. Arnold—" Our people" used to bo called by the
higher title of masters and mistresses, but I suppose that
has gone out of fashion.
Defendant—Well, sir, they were trying to got at their
masters and mistresses, and the man in livery would go
forward, and they caught him by the collar and brought
him back to my side, and in the struggle my hat was
knocked off, and I stooped to pick it up, when I was dragged
away by the police and charged with assaulting them.
Mr. Arnold—You are also charged with being drunk.

Defendant—l say that I was not drunk.
Police-constable Butcher, 246 B, was called, and said that
he removed the defendant two or three times, and then
saw Edmonds down on the ground and defendant on the
top of him. Defendant turned round and struck witness
two or three times.

Mr. Arnold—Was the defendant drunk ?
Witness—Ho had been drinking, but ho was very much
excited. Ho said ho had as much right there as any one
else. He struck me two or threo times on tho mouth.

Defendant pointed out that the witness had no marks;
and solicited a remand to enable him to procure witnesses.
Mr. Arnold consented to a remand upon his giving ono
surety in X 5.
