Sir C. Woon said he could give no precise infor- ‘mation upon the sabject beyond that which was contained im the papers already before the House. He had no doubt, however, that the reason why no vessel had been sent to ‘Bird Island was attributable to the demand upon our aaval In the Commons government was twice defeated upon motions to amend the pending Probate bill. BNGLAND’S RELATIONS WITH VSNEZUBLA—SEIZURE OF A BRITISH SCHOONER AT CARACCAS. ‘The Karl of Mauwencry wished to put a question to the Becretary of Siate for Foreign Atfairs relative toa case of ome bardebip. It was the cave of a Captain Oureley, sommander and part owner of the schooner Maria, which nad been seized by the Venezuelan government. It ap- that a boat had been detached from tbe schooner morder to provisions at Caraccas. On board the oat there were some few yards of cloth which the crew mended merely to barter for the provisions of which they \tood in need. They were, however, accused of smug: pling, and the boat was consequently seized. The captain was brought before the tribunal of the country, and fined 100 doliars for a breach of the Custom-house rules of Ve tezuela. Notsatirfied with this, the Gsvernment of that seuntry also seized the schooner, which wasthen engaged 8 regular and legitimate trade—that of carrying cattle to Demerara. The seizure occurred on the 7th March, 1856, (ince then a correspondence bad taken place between his riend (Lord Clarendon) and the brother in-law of Captain Yaseley ; and it appeared that ne notice whatever had been aken of this transaction by our Chargé d’ Affaires at Carac- s, and that no communication on the subject had been ent by that officer to the fc office in answer to in- wires that had been addrested to him regarding it. In x meantime Captain Ouseley had presented a bill against ve authorities of Venezuela for 1e8 to the amount of mmeth'ng like £3,000. He wished noble friend to fplain, if he could, how such a proceeding us thls, a‘Toct, «"« ese! that was British built, British manned, and ritish owned, should have taken place without the know- sige of the Foreign Office being drawn to it by our Chargé ‘The Far! of CLaneynon (who was very indisti heard) ‘as eorry that he could not afford bis noble friend the ex- fanation he deeired. It was perfectly true that neither fore nor since the information relative to this case had vem given to the Foreign Office by the parties interested @ he received any report on the subject from our verge «’Alfaires at Caraccas. As toon as the circum- , bndes came to his knowledge ho put himself tn commual- ‘don with the Commissioner of Venezuela, who was then ‘out to return to that couatry, and requested him to be od eneugh to lay the matter under the notice of the wezvelean government, Since then, 353685 ate however, he hed u Uheerd anything of that gentleman’s gs.

The Stock Exchange In Wall Street—An Engy Meh View of its Mode of Operating. [From the London Times, (city article,) July 7.] For some time past the accounts of the operations in the New York stock market bave furnished increased illustra- tions of a fact which, although of great importance as a stimulus to caution, has never been much noticed by Hu- ropean investers. The rules of the London Stock Ex change constitute @ model system for the maintenance of honorable dealing, and capitalists who look in the Ameri- can papers for the official price lists and other documents emanaiing from the Board of Brokers in New York are apt to suppose tha something like similar vigilance is ex ercised by that body. This, however, is a mistake, and no: only is ita fact thatthe managers of the New York Exchange encourage a system of business which bas no bona fide foundation, but that the members of that Ex- change, instead of actipg as one man, like the London dealere, on all occasions when it may be necessary to in- sist upon @ rigid maintenance of public credit, usual- forth their ly put collective iniluence to ob- ‘ain an opposite result. With rare exceptions policy of the New York dealers and speculators is always to act against the market. Whether this arises from a ee pene of the stocks and bonds of American companies ig held by foreigners need not be discussed. Certain it Is that while in London the least ‘attempt at bad faith on the part of a public company is at once met on the Stock Exshavge as.ano'il that would be Cestructive to business of all kinds, the tendency at New York, owing to the majority being largely interested in speculations for a fall, is to give tacit, if not active en- couregement to every proceeding that can produce dis- trust. Thus, in the case of the New York and New Haven Railway, where the freuds of Schuyler in issuing false stick were snalagous to those of Sadlier, Redpath and Robeon in London, the direc'ors felt sufficient confidence in public support to repudiate the acts of their officer, and to Grive the claimants into # court of law. In like manner if the president of a bank, after borrowing money in England pleads usury to avoid payment, or the bead of a trust company—a leader in a certain section of the religious world—geis control of ite funds in order to equander them through years of liti- gaticn with shareholders on this side; or a Secretary of State openly announces himself the advecate of, repudia- tion, and laughs at the * crocodile tears” of the suiferers, theif popularity in the of the New York Ex change never ecems for one moment influenced. Tne leading merchants of the city fee! the disgrace and loudly condemn it, but so Jong as those who gain by such prac- tices can find themselves still ac mired in the sphere where their profits are made the of other classes has lit tle weight. It will be rigbtly said, however, that for this there is no remedy. The managers of the Boar of Bro kers have nothing to do with the sympathies of tue mem bers, either individoally or collectively. All that the European investor bas to do is to recollect that the fact of these feelings, being in many cases against bim, shoali be one element of his calculations. But there are other points with which it is in the power of an official body to deal. The Board of Brokers can at least decido upon the character of the transuctions they will to appear in their authorized stock liste, London no is allowed to be marked un- less it is for a certain amount, and to be settled within a certain reasonable timo—a shasen and fereige steak, cad 0 meni 10 Se Gee oe In New York, on the con » When it has been arranged to create panic, one of the favorite devices is to fell at about one fourth of their actual we yg lal wen hundred dollars worth of shares, to be deli a twelve. month hence?

The sugar market during the last month has been very unsettled, and prices have experienced a series of fluctua Nions, but at no time exceeding 2. per owt. ; during the past fortnight there has beon # yencral indisposition on the part of the trade to purchase, except for the supply of im- mediate wants; but, on the other hand, holders are for the most part firm, and anwilling to submit to the decline.
