The monetary conference In seturion 'in 1'arln. with me oblect of bringing a boat a nniflcatlvecurrehcy among the nations of Uie world, has adopted luo live franc piece as tbe unit of gold coins. It Is understood that the United States Gov rnment, under this arrangement, will reduoe the value of tbe gold dollar to that ot the five frano piece, and that the French Government will coin pieces of twenty-five francs, which will then be of the mime value as the United Htates live dollar gold piece, while England, by a slight reduction in the value of the sovereign, Will bring It down to the same standard. The English members of the conference were very loth to agree-to tbls arrangement, which will virtually make the American dollar the unit for gold, and tried to eflect a compromise ppon the ten frano piece, Thls.bowever, failed: and now that the tnrce principal commercial nations of tbe world arc nereed upon a standard, It is probable tnat it will not be long berore most of tbe others will unite with them. THE FINANCIAL SITUATION. Condition of the London 'Chans Sym pathy with the Farls Bourse 1'ha Influx ot uold. From the London Times (cttff article), July .- Consols continue to lull, while the Influx o" gold to the Hank and the brilliant weather for the crops are uninterrupted. The market oil Halorday opened without recovery from the decline of the previous days, and a further re duction of one-quarter was ultimately esta blished. Sympathy with me inactivity and heaviness of iho Paris Bourse seems the only apparent cauxe of the movement, although the state of prices at 'Paris is partly owing to the anticipation or a new loan of 0,000,000 or 10,000,000 sterling an operation that could have no material iulluouce on this slda Sup posing the public to be actuated at present by any definite view. It can only be conjeotured that they are holding back under the Impres sion that Bome disasters, polli leal or otherwise, moat soon occur of sufficient magnitude to torn the bullion tide, and create a general demand for money. So long as gold continues to pour in It must lead to investments In securities or swell the amount of notes lying Idle In the Mils of the 'various hanks. In the former cise there must be a direct action upon the prices of stocks; In the latter the rate o( discount must be further lowered, and an ludlreot luflueuce wilt be excr eted, since the temptation to buy slocks that pay Irom three to Ave per cent, will bo propor lionably increased as discount goes down to two or one and a half per cent. It Is idle to speak of sales of stocks by the pnbllo lu tbe sense of their creating an alteration in the ex isting prospects. If a man sells 1000 of con sols, something must be done with tne proceeds. Tbey must either be lodged at bis banker's or must be paid to some other man, who will then in turn nave to decide what he Is to do with them. Nothing, therefore, cau prevent a rise In tbe funds on the one hand, or a Nil in the dis count market on tbe other; and tbe question Is how far tbe publlo will permit tne litter to pro ceed before tbe rate will have reached a point sufficiently low to promote a return of courage on their part sullio ent to Induce them to hold stocks of any kind. Of course any persons who fnncythey see a strong probability ot war, a bad harvest, a mania for foreign loans or speculations, or any other calamity that in the course of six or twelve months may entirely change the present position and disappoint all existing hopes, will pursue a perfectly rational course in submitting to a temporary loss of interest in order that they may have all their capital in hand at the critical moment; but It may be doubted If Buch apprehensions really prevail to a serious extent. It would be some time before even the most advene Influences could now break down the accumulations In the. banks of England and France; and meanwhile the loss of Interest by those who wait for them would, perhaps ba equal to the percentage saved. It. may be hooe'i, therefore, that the public will weigh every point of the subject, ro that they may act t all events from clear conceptions and not from a blind distrust, which Is no less discreditable than the madness of ltt5. It is lamentable that the prin ciples of economical science bave made so little progress In this country that, while tbe ope rative classes are endeavoring at every cost to cancel even the primary rigbw of free labor, tbe capitalist classes have no sense to steer between the wildest excesses of prodigality and the most abject conditions ot miserly dis quietude.

French Review of the Position of the Bank of England Money Crisis Tne Banks of Scotland and France. ' Farts (June 25) Correspondence London Times. A work of more thun five hundred pages, from tbe pen of M. Wolowskl, the well-known economist, has just appeared. The subjects are the Bank of England and the banks of Scot land, and they are treated In a manner which proves the writer to be thoroughly acquainted with all the details concerning these lnstltu- The volume consists of five parts the first, on the bank and the suspension, of cash pay ments (1707-1810); the second, on the financial crisis of 1806 In England, and which originally appeared in the lievue d:s Veux Monties In August last year, under the title V.mdredl JJoir." The third part contains the letter of M. Michel Chevalier, whose views on banks differ so widely from those of the writer, and M. Wolowskl's answer thereto; bis letters to the Avenir Commercial and to the Kconomiste Fran eaise, with M. Duval's (.the editor of the Eaono mixte) replies; the fourth, an essay on the Bank of France and paper currency, written in 1805; and tbe fifth on Scotch banks. The last part is full of Information hitherto llttlo known In this eountiy. "Men of business lu Eugland," ob serves the writer, "act much, speak little, and write less;" and tbe manager of one of the most ancient and principal bunks of Edinburgh, In reply to Inquiries addressed to him, said he was sorry to say that there Is no good work on Scotch banks. In that part which treats of the Bank of England no essential fact appears to be forgotten, and the explanations respecting the controversy between those who defend and those who attack It omit nothing that is useful to know on the working of that great institu tion, on the act of 3814, and on the present situ ation of the question of banks and of credit In England. hi. Wolowskl says: The relation between the dactilnea adopted by oar neighbors and the dlscusi-lons which the Bank of Franco have given rise to among us are treated In a distinct chapter. Finally, I have examined that most useful Institution, end one which Is geuerslly so 111 understood tbe banks of Scotland. I trust that the documents hitherto lnedlted, upon which I rely, will rectify certain Ideas too readily accepted on thlsmalter.and that people will cease to attribute to the admirable me cbaclKiu of tbe batiks of Scotland an erroneous signification. Far from furnishing arguments to those who pretend to find In unrestricted Issue the panacea of credit, the Scotch banks, seriously studied, show how frail and limited la the action of that Instrument In comparison with the force derived from the agglomeration and dlstilbutlon of capital. On the whole, In all that relates to tbe char acter and working of the Bank of England, the Bank of France, and especially the Scotch banks, which are Imperfectly understood bere, M. Wolowskl's book will be read with advan tage by those who are interested In the era. e questions ol credit and paper currency. In Hussia.

Brlgham Young;, Jr., In New York A Visit to Ills Hotel Ills Wives, and What They Think of the Institution of Polygamy. A few days ago the announcement of the arrival ol Brlgham Young, Jr., the President of tbe Mormon Church, and suite, was announced In the dally papers. He arrived here in the steamship Scotia, from England, having con cluded a tour In Europe. It was soon rumored that tbe suite consisted of that gentleman's train of wives and tbe St. Nicholas Hotel, where they were stopping, was the oynosure of all the eyes that the lair promenaders of Broad way could bring to boar on it. The general opinion of the "dear creatures" was wonder as to bow the many Mesdames Young could bear thtir pitiable existence, mingled with the belief that the windows were barred to prevent their escaping. But while this was the case with the majority, the minority, which is sometimes In the right, knew that no ladies could be relalued lorclbly In a house of the prominence and char acter of the St. Nicholas. A lew of these, and they were among the most distinguished lu tne city, called at the. hotel, and sout up their cards to "the ladies of the suite of Brlgtiam Young. Jr." Only one lady was at home, aud she had Just come In from the pleasant occupation of suopping, having bad, aud alas! lost a Une op portunity of muKlng iter escape. She was an nounced to the ladles, by her servant, as Mrs. Young (whether No. 8, 0, or 10 was not stated). The ladles exchanged the compliments of tbe day; asked about Purls, from which city the lady had Just come, about her voyage, about the fashions, about hotel life, and aouut the proposed trip across the plains; about Indian depredations, aud finally about the main sud ject of their visit, i. e., Mormon women, their domestic Hie, their possible or actual happiness. Tbey did not wonder, tbey said, that men liked polygamy. In fact, most of them had lUlle grave suspicious of the polygamlo proclivities on thn part of tbe gentlemen ot their own families aud households that, from its fre quency, had come to be loosed on as a matter of course. But did she really believe It possible for a woman to content herself, and be huppy, with a third, fourth, fifth, sixth, or sixtieth Bhare of ber busbuud's affections, with the prospect of probable decrease in the slue of the libs 16 Mrs. Young, who is a slight, graceful, ladylike matron of about thirty, said, with an uncon scious naivete, that the leared she might not be Impartial enough to satisfy the claims of Justice in the matter; that she was so thorouguly wedded to her husband In common with his other wives thut his fuilhs, and hopes, and In terests were hers. "But," said she, "let us go and see the babies and lalkover it there." Lead ing the way to her rooms, ber guests followed, and were all met at the door by "the babies," two In number one in the nurse's arms, but still able to walk, the other two years and a half old and very beautiful, an embryo belle in deed, a diminutive fairy queen dressod In white and rose-colored lawn, with flesh-colored kid slippers. Surrounded by ber "Jewels," this Mormon Cornelia told of the houor conferred on her In being chosen one of the wives of a sanctified man, in being tbe mother of sons of promise, daughters beautiful In the faith aud possible mothers of fuluresousof promise. She Bpoke of ber husband's other wives as sisters aud co-helpers, and their children she regarded as much bers as ber own. She seemed the re production of a Jewish Idea womanly, wlfoly, maternal, having children for a purpose to people the city of God. It reali.ed the char acter almost wholly unknown among Ameri can women, of a wile as ahelpmate, and seemed as beroic and beautiful as it is unusual. After a while Mr. Young entered, aud was in troduced to the ladles by bis wife, not with. standing that he-might take a lanoyloone or au oi meni, ana inuuoe mem to snare me luxury of his household. The conversation now became general. Other gentlemen arrived, with their reports of purchases In the fine gro cery and dry goods line, together with descrip tions oi me pianos, carriages, ana sewing machines they had puichased to be shipped to their wives in Ulau. A charming little lea was served up in one of the private purlorx; and us those healtny. handsome, wealthy; honest-looking "saints" pasKed buttered toast to their lady guests and tulked badinage, they thought It would not be so bad, considei ing that entire husbands are so very bard to get, to take a share of some woman's or women's husbands, especially when perfect immunity is guaranteed;aguUst destruction of hair, ears, aud "make up" gene rally. The description or me nome or tne parties, and of their city, pleased the fair visitors ex ceedingly, and It would not be strange If they circulate it, alter tne naDit oi ladles, tnat tne story of Its delightful climate, the considera tion paid to women, the stores, the temple, the theatre, the race-course, and other places, of amusement, win iorm attractions wnicn win draw greater numbers of marriageable maidens from our Atlantic cities Uian did ever dream of Washington Territory.

The amount of money taken was varloubly stated, some faying tbttt $13,000 was deposited in the safe, but we are credibly in formed tbat tbe amount was a little over $0000. The detectives when informed of tbe matter visited tbe premises, and Superlntcudent Reynolds informed our repoiter tbat tbe wards ot the lock on the inside of the vault bad been bo arranged tbat the bolts could be moved with a ttout piece of wire or iron tod. Tbe office is located in one of the most irequented places in tbe city, and two sides consist mainly of glass, while tbejothers are brick wulls. The side next the Terrace has very large windows extending almost the entire length ol the ottice, and on Main street the win dows are also quite large. There were no sign of violent measures havir been resorted to either in effecting an entrance to the office or to tbe vault, which occupies a position in tbe southwest corner.

Ilcr Demeanor In Prison Appearance of the Prisoner Her Kxpsetcd Confession Much It in a I us Untold. Yesterday we visited the unfortunate Bridget Durpnn in her cell, in company with ber leal ing counsel, Mr. Onrned B. Adrain. Petitions for her pardon have been extensively signed, but tbe Court of Pardons has decided that the law shall take its course. The fact was made known t) her by her counsel, and the only ell ret that it bad upon ber has been to make her more nervous tbau usual, and taciuirn in con versation. On our enterint; her cell she was In conversa tion with some ladles who, through a feeling of humanity, had called upon her. Sho seemed to be very glad to see her counsel, and warmly shook bunds with him. She is certainly not th? bideous.looking pemon tbat has bceu repre sented. Tiue it is, ber forehead la low, and tbe eyelashes to bang down that it is impossible to form a correct idea of the expression of the eyes. The brews are heavy even to a fault, and the upper part ot the countenance Indicates weakness of character. The lower part of her face is anything but disagreeable. There is almost a continuous placid smile about the mouth, which in a great degree counteracts the rcpulsiveness of tbe upper part of the counte nance. Sitting in her cell, and considering, as bas been proven on the trial, thore wa a total absence ol all motive, one can hardly believe ber to be the perpetrator of tbe horrible crime of which Bhe ha9 beeu convicted. Her conversations are rational enough until some leading fact in connection with the mur der comes up. when she will break olf suddenly to some other sublect, or remain entirely silent. Up to yesterday, she has made no confession of her guilt. On Thursday she expressed a wish to Mr. Adrain that he would, on the following day, send to her the Rev. Mr. Rodgers, the Roman Catholic pa-tor of Hew Brunswick. Father Roogers called upon her on Friday at 11 o'clock, and remained with her for nearly an hour, it was tbe general impression in New Brunswick yesterday tbat she bad made a full confession ot the matter; whether nnder the seal of confession or not was not determined. Nothing has dropped from Father Rodgers to indicate that such baa taken place. Whatever has occurred between her aud Father Rodgers, and between ber aud Mr. Adraiu, is strictly private, and neither will communicate any tacts at present which have come to their knowledge in conversation with the unfortunate woman. Previous to ber trial it may be observed that she was visited in prison by Dr. Coriell, but since her conviction, although she bas expressed a desire to see him, he has not come to see her. Lone previous to her becoming an inmate of Dr. Coriell's establishment he h"d frequently attended her In tbe township of Pisoataway for those attacks ot epilepsy to which she was sub ject; and it was at the Doctor's request that sue went to live at his house, as be could more successfully attend to curing her disease and the general state of her health. Judgiua by her appearance, she is a person easily in Huenced and led away by the advice and dictation ot others. Her present advisers think it would be prema ture on ber part to make any statement just now, and consequently anything she may bave to say on the subject might only be propagating slander, without having any legal testimouy to sustain it, and, therefore, it Is, that various statements ot uriueet uurcan'8 nave oeen witn held fiom the public, and which we would not be warranted in publishing. She will, how ever, it is supposed, make a clean breast of the entire matter when tbe proper time arrives, and by her public confession of her participation in the awful occurrence, in some degree make atonement for her crime. When that confession Is made, however, there will be some important matter added to the record of this cause celebre. jV. r. bunday Sewa. THE CORIELL MURDER. Further Developments Bridget Dorgan Implicates Another Woman and Brings to Light Additional Particulars of the Murder. New Brunswick N. J.. July 13. As was pre dicted a lew weeks ago, additional light is being thrown on this mysterious case by the develop ments of the condemned woman, whose de meanor at the close of ber trial underwent such a change as Justified the opinion that she would become communicative as soon as she realized tbe terrors of her doom. When asked what she bus to say why sentence should not be pronounced, she maintained her usual stub born reserve, but when she understood It was the last opportunity offered, she dis closed l ne name of a certain individual to her counsel who held out hopes to her of ultimate deliverance. That name It was not thought proper to give on ber mere assertion, In view of tbe fuct that she had before fre quently prevaricated. Binoe the executlou of Williams, however, her mind has undergone a total change, and as she begins to "look o'er life's narrow verje" en tbe fathomless abyss tnat awaits her. the weakuess of her nature asserts ittelf, and she feels unable to boar the great burden of the dread secret which op presses ber. She has made some disclosures within the past few days which Implicate at least one certaiu woman, and this part of her story has all the appearance of truth. The name of this woman was furnished in confidence to tbe Herald, tbe authorities deeming It unwise to have it made publlo until the arrest of tbe Individual Implicated. Ou the day alter the commission of the murder, this woman left the locality In a mysterious mauuer, aud tbe suspicions of District Attorney Her bert being aroused, he sent detectives to hunt her up. it is known that Bhe was for some time in New York city. Bridget Iiorgan now alleges that this woman aided in the commission of the murder. She further adds that Mrs. Coriell was lying upon a louuge with the right side of ber face up when the first blow whs struck, and she then retreated to a back room, where a terrible struggle ensued, in which Mrs. Coriell succeeded In wrenching tbe knife from her assailants, and it was In doing so she received the cats on her hand. An other knife was then procured by the mur deress and the bloody work was accomplished, after which the weapon was thrown into the fire. Bridget refuses to give any other names In connection with the affair; but it is known that tbe woman referred to received deep scratches on her face on the night of the mur der, which will make her arrest a matter of less difficulty. It may be further stated that the Court of Pardons were unanimous iu auirming the sen tence of tbe condemned woman; and the point that weighed most against ber was tbe reputa tion sue valued for herself In deliberately con cocting tbe ruin of Innocent persons, and at the same lime doggedly refusing to disclose tbe names of the real accessories, while boasting she possessed a secret she would not divulge. Under all tbe circumstances, every statement Will be received with caution unless supported by some palpable evidence. Hitherto she has not manifested much ooucora regarding the future; ber mind is so engrossed by some one prevailing Idea that 11 requires an cit'jrt she oanuot command to divert ii, lo anything else.

Humored Departure of m Vlllbustsrlnfr Kxpcdltlon Thi KfTictof th Railroad Legislation of Congress on ths South ern Railroads Tho Authenticity of Gn. Rscobedo's Proclamation Against Foreign Residents Denied. New Orlkans, July 13 Information has been received at Hherldan's headquarters to tbe e fleet tbat a small party of filibuster, In cluding among tbem some half-a-dozen de serters from the United Ktntes army, aud amounting in All to nearly a hundred persons, has left New Orleans within a day or two. That the party did not move directly for the Rio Grande has been elicited, and It Is sur mised that they must bave goue by way of Havana. No details of the ex pedition bave been learned at headquarters, and 11 is quite possible that In bis real the de tective may have been mistaken. If any party lins left at all, which is still doubted, it bas beeu under cover of emigration to Rritlsh Honduras, an emigration which has been started, and in cludes from fifteen to twenty thousand fortune seekers. Meantime no pains will be spared by the military authorities hero and by the com mander of the line of the Rio Oraude to sup press any warlike raids upon Mexican territory, and offenders of that son will be promptly tried by military commission. The movement has not, however, in thn commanding general's opinion, assumed sufficient consistency to war rant the issuance of an order, or any special military Interference; and'ns tbe Mexican fever is subsiding, it is not Uifllkely that the whole movement will fan through of Its own weight. Tne Congressional resolutions withdrawing the grants of public lands made to railroad cor porations In five of the Southern Htates, have have made something of a flutter among inte rested parties here. The construction put upou tbe withdrawal is that ltonly applies to uneom- Elcted sections of tbe roads, and that It will ave the effect of reducing the stock of several companies, thereby In vltine an Influx of North- f em and Western capital. It may be shrewdly suspeciea mat iNortuern capitalists will think twice before they Invest. I have authentic information that the letter or proclamation purporting to bave beeu Issued by General Kscobedo, and directed against foreign residents. Is a forgery, as might have been supposed from the record of the journal in which it first appeared. Flutter Among Rebel Office Holders General Sheridan About to Clarify the City Scrip Muddle A Severe. Rain Storm. New Orlkans. July 14. All parties here, rudical, conservative, and of all complexions between, seem to bo lying quietly on their arena awaiting the action of Congress. Considerable effort Is now being made ou the part of tbe city ofticluls to curry favor with Uheridan, who, at present indications, bids fair to win the race and become master of tbe situation. All official filibustering bas ceased, but the fact of havlug ceased loo late will certainly cost the few ex Rebel office holders left their positions con siderable annoyance. Tbe severest shower of the season bas oc curred to-day. About 1 o'clock P. M. the sky was suddenly overcast, aud from 2 until 8 In tbe afternoon the rain poured down absolutely In cataracts. At 8 o'clock P. M. the water was neurly knee deep from curbstone to curbstone on nearly every street in tbe city. In many cases the sidewalk was overflowed, and every street was a turbid torrent, roaring as if let loose from some mountain fastness. After about two hours the flood abated, and the eve ning is clear, sultry, and oppressively warm. General Sheridan will very Boon take the muddle of tbe city scrip in band, and endeavor to save the credit of the city by some method of redemption aud cancellation both of tne legal and illegal Issues. SERIO US RIO TON ST A TEN I SLAND. Open Defiance of the Iaw Fight with the Police Nine of the Rioters Ar rested. A party of Germans, numbering about five hundred, left this city yesterday at 11 A. M., and were towed in a couple of barges to Staten Island, where tbey lauded, and, disembarking, went to Kim Park. The party had made no previous arrangement with the proprietors of me i arK, nor uia tney even essay to mane use of tbe proper entrances to the enclosure, but in a turbnlent and riotous manner tore down fences and trampled over shrubbery and gar dens, defying all authority. Intelligence of the aflalr was given at the Edgewater Police Station, and Captain Hoi brook at once detailed Roundsman Adamson. with three men, who hurried to the spot ana found the whole party In uproar. A oar bad been improvised and lager beer was being dis pensed to the people. The officers interfered to stop tbe sale of the liquor, when they were seized and beaten, and then driven from the f round. Evidently fearing the advent of rei nforcements to aid the policemen, the rioters broke up their bar, embarked on tbeir boats, made fast to tbe steam-tug, and put about for this city. As soon as tbey were under way, tbe police officers took tbe ferry boat, and arriving in New York In advance of the excursionists, made application for aid at the New Street Po lice Station. The news was telegraphed to Inspector Wall ing, who directed that a squad of men should be sent aboard the police boat to make the necessary arrests before the lauding of the rioters. In accordance with these Instructions, a platoon of twenty men, Including the police officers from Staten Island the whole under command of Sergeant Fitzgerald embarked on the police bout, and, as the rioters were Hear ing the Battery, boarded tbe barees, and took therelrom nine of the most conspicuous of tbe rioters, who, under strong escort, were sent on tbe Liberty Street Ferry to the Fifty-first Pre cinct Station at Staten Island. Shortly after embarklug the police officers on their boat a collision occurred between tbe latter aud the Union ferry-boat New York. The police boat ran into the New York bow on, and struck ber on tbe port quarter abaft the wheel, crushing in the cabin and cutting through the guards to the bull. None of tbe passengers were injured. JV. Y. 1 rilmne of to-day. Revolvers. The Turkish Government has issued a proclamation prohibiting the impor tation of revolvers.

The seoond period of tne fuiy lurui ut'Kau iuih morning. Margaret Conner was charged with the larceny of ruonev from Mr. (Iraham. who testltlHd that. as be was folng bome on the night of the 6th of juiy,i me corner oi jenin ana UlCKiiiHon streets the defendant aud another woman passed him, the defendant rubbing against him. lie felt la bis pocket and missed bis purse Irom the pocket that the defen dant touched, lie pursued tbe two women, and, upon Hearing the corner or Tenth street and Pasnyunk roud, be saw tbem looking Into the pockeUbook; he arrested tbem, and the defendant dropped the pocket book to the ground, empty. 7 It was argued, by the defense tbat, as tbe prose cuuir neither saw nor felt the deiendant's liani la hit pocket, there was no evidence agalQRt her, and the cnDmouwealtli argued tbat, if a woman at the dead of night rubhed against a man's pocket, aud that man Iniiiifdiately missed his pocket book, and the next moment saw the woman looking Into It, he m'ght be tupid enough to luppo'e the woman stole It, and such was this case. The Ju'y rendered a verdict of guilty, with a recommendation Jo the mercy of the court. , George Pmlth was charged with obtaining goods under false pretenses.. The evidence! A-as, that on the Mh of tbls month the defendant went to a prjvlslou store on the river, and ordered meat and other food. When the articles were put up for him he said he bad forgot hiB pocket-book. But he said he was Captain Howard, of tli sloop Ward, then Ivlng at the wharf, where he bad left his money. But the prosecutor would not let dim IhKh tbe goods. Upon search It was found that there was no such sloop on the wharf as tbe Ward, nor was there such a captain as Howard. Tbe defense argued that as tbe defendant did not take the goods, he did notobiaio them, and therefore could not oe convicted of a charge of obtaining lueua under false pretences. The liletrlct Attorney replied that, though the pre cise offense charged in tbe bill bad not been proveu to have beeu committed, yet there was plainly an at tempt to commit the offense, of which tbe Jury had a right to coo vlct him under this hill. 1 his argument was addressed lo the Court, bnt was left opeu until the conclusion of the argument to the Jury.
