Mr. Shillibeer, the well-known proprietor of funeral car riages, moved this morning, in person, for a rule calling Ws the Commissioners of Island Revenue to show cause why they refused to settle a question connected with the taxation upon hearses and mourning couches. Mr. Shilli beer stated that, having had a disagreement with the corn- Missioners as to the amount of duty payable on funeral car riages, they consented to a case being drawn up for the decision of two ofthe puisne judges, in a-oordance with the provisions of the statute. A case wu accordingly sub mitted to two of the judges, who decided against Mr. Slid libeer, and the ground en which he made the present application was that the case bad been incorrectly stated. The Lord Chief liarou—Do you apply under any act of parliament, or on the ground of any general jurisdiction which we may be supposed to pawass? Mr. Shillibeer—l cannot say that I do, but the decision is so extraordiniu7, that I feel compelled to ask your lordships lobar the case in full court. Mr. Baron Parke—We have no jurisdiction whatever in the matter. The art of parliament provides, when a party is dissatisfied, that he must lay his case before two of the palms judges, who meet three times a year, to decide such questions, and there is no appeal from their &vi sion. The only course you can adopt, Mr. Shillibeer, is, when the nest charge fur taxation is made, to appeal again, sad then to hare the case properly stated. Mr. Shillibeer said he wished to compel the commis sioners to refund the overcharges they had improperly made during the last ten years. Mr. Baron Parke—l am afraid you will find some diffi culty in doing that. The Lord Chief Baron—Ton had better go before a com mittee of supply in the House of Commons. (Laughter.) Mr. Bbillibeer replied that he was afraid thus was no hope in that quartei. Mr. Baron Alderson—We can give you we assistanoe, ezeept our advice. The west time that you appeal apply to the commisvioners to have the ease correctly state d . Mr. Bhillibeer said he had applied to the commissioners to have the case stated a second time, end they had refused to comply with his request. Mr. Baron Alderson-1 think it will be • VON injustice if thy do not grant your application, if you have any addi- Mesa facts to state. Mr. ehillibeer thanked his lordship, sad withdrew.

DEAR 81i,—Ice enclosing to you the extracts from Tarbes letters of Dr. Barth and Dr. Overmig min wades &dr from Tie-tallest to the Lake their ett of that mysterious lake, sod the bald enemmien of Dr. Barth into the eseesteieeee °matey et Ad awes to the south of the lake, ender the Bth Ewes et seethe= latitude, I have reserved tbe theme iatreaseserry less the mention of a eircumstaaes which emir to me highly remarkable, eatisfactery, sad es- The British fLig has acted as pled- Bettor its very appearance." When the mush dreaded, t, and jealous Bidduntalis, the pagan biesdiesefasetake, saw that tine boat, with its fear guns, and the emblem of the nation which has done se mach towards abolishing the slave trade, quietly Boating en their waters, they hailed it at once as the harbinger of pease. Dr. Overweg writes to see that he was received with the greatest demonstration of joy and respect. "The Sheikh of Berou," they exclaimed, • must, indeed, be respected, being himself honoured with the friendship of so great a sovereign as the Queen of England." To *haw their con fidence and their respect, two of their chief men accompa nied the visitors solemnly to Bret, the landing place near Kuka. . Our travellers think that it will take them 12 months to examine the lake, and in particular the two almost entirely unexplored part. of the shore on the eastern and northern sides, and afterwards to make an excursion to the country of the Bagharmis, now open to their peaceful visit. In the meantime, Lord Palmerston, with that liberality and en lightened seal which he constantly has shown in devising and furthering the " African Ilissiou," has, immediately upon the intelligence of the death of Mr. Richardson, given orders that all money and merchandise destined for the mission should be transmitted from Tripoli to Drs. Barth and Overweg, and has charged these two countrymen of mine with carrying on the objects of this scientific and philanthropic project. In anticipation of his lordship's views, they have not lost a moment in availing themselves of the favourable disposition of the Sheikh of Bornu, to sign dal Ply *NO treaty of commerce with England. They have treasmilled this interesting ducuraeutto ripoli, which may be cornered as the harbinger of great and mutual beadle substituting for the o anus slave trafilc a legitimate and regular intercourse, and an exchange of the rich produce of the Sudan with Europe, and with prepar ing a road tar ell the blessings of civilisation. After hair lag amomplishei their task, my countrymen are more than evrr radveil Is proceed with their great object—viz., the froniag of the centre of Africa in a south•eastern direction down to the mast of Monabas, or even as far as Warm. bique. They have already found en experienced guide, sod collected much valuable informatioti, which is highly encouraging. -1 remain, dear sir, yours sincerely, BUNSEN. Dr. Norton Shaw, Royal Geographical Society. EAST ANOLIAN RAILWAYS. Yesterday, an extraordinary general meeting of this company took place at the London Tavern, for the purpose of considering the terms of an agreement on the put of the Groat Northern Company, awl also one on the part of tho Eastern Counties Company, for the purchase of the East Anglian plant, &c. The chair was taken by H. Buret, Esq. The SECRETARY having read the advertisement call- ing the meeting _ The MIA'HAAN said the offer of the Eastern Counties Company bad only been received yesterday. He road a letter on the part of the Great Northern Company . from Mr. Easter, which recapitulated the former circum stances of the Company. The requisition in conformity with which the present meeting was called was signed by 200 shareholders, and he had received several letters kora shareholders, in which they expressed strongly their prehreace for the terms offered by the Eastern :z oo Counties y, stating as their reason that by accept ing the arms wintkl got be exposed to the risk of a ruinous ter mane. Under these circumstances, it would law bun sand on the part of the directors to base taken any dip geadini the period of the requisition and the puma. nneties. Ka telt also that as so large • el almerheldlese were averse to an agreement with the Serthem Campany, they meld act go to parlia ment le seastion It.

SIMPSON, who stated that he ragemented Use inte rests et the Mambo/atm !heptachlors, ergrandemi the . meeting on the prospect of the agremiteat with the Great Northern Company being dissolved. The reason, why their sompsny should ally_ themvelves with the Eastern Counties were obvious. He concluded by moving a relega tion which, in substance, was, "That inasmuch as the agreement with the Great Northern Company was declared illegal, an arrangement, based on the terms contained in a letter from Mr. Vaddingtou, should be entered into with the Eastern Counties Company, and that a committee should be appointed to carry the same into effect." Mr. 11ESSELT1NE, in seconding the motion, said he held 170 letters in favuurof the agreement with the Eastern Counties Company, and not one of them was in favour of that with the Great Northern Company. A short diseamion ensued. . . Mr. WADDINGTON stated that the Eastern Counties Company did not want to get anything from the Bast Anglian Rafivrays Company. Their only object was to act equitably tetrads the East Anglian. The Eastern Counties Company wished to atone by future liberality . for that con duct which made the Great Northern come into the field, and their policy was now to develop the traffic of the East Anglian line, and realise (or the shareholders in that com pany some return ter their capital. (Applause.) An amendment was moved " that no agreement with one company or the other should be entered into for two mouths," but was negatived. The original motion was altered to the effect "that the agreement with the Eastern Counties Company should be approved, and that a committee be formed to report thereon to a future meeting." After a vote of thanks to the chairman and directors, the meeting adjourned. The terms of the Eastern Counties Company were the following The Eastern Counties to purchase for cash the East Anglian plant, he., at the valuation lately made, and to pay half the cost of such valuation. The money to be realised from the sale of the plant, to be appropriated as follows —The amount required to pay for the sinetruction of the bridges on the Wisbech branch to be seemed far that purpose, sad the remainder applied in liquidation of the East Anglian liabilities.

The extreme_point of the late rise was again touched in the English stock market at the com mencement of business this morning, an impres sion being entertained in some quarters that a reduction in the minimum discount rate • of the Bank of England at the weekly board I meeting to-day was by no means improbable. The I court, however, having broken up without the an nouncement of any such step having been adopted, and reports being current of a contemplated Prussian railway loan to be partially raised in this market, prices have become flatter, and quotations now rule to I per cent. below those of yesterday afternoon. Consols, which closed yesterday 99 to 1 both for money and account, have last been sold at 981 for cash, for which they are now called 981 to 5, and 981 to 99 for the 11th December. The morning's transactions, as officially reported,}re Three per Cent. Consols, 991, 981, 991, 981, 99, 981 ; ditto for Account, 991, 981. Three per Cent. Radliced; 981, 985.

A failure has been declared to-day, that of a young man well connected, who has suffered by a variety of speculations. The amount is small. In the unfunded securities operations have been small, but the full quotations have ruled. The report of the transactions as officially given is: Exchequer Bills of the several descriptions, 525. to 535. prem. In India Bonds no dealings are reported. The foreign stock market is firm for most descrip tions with rising rates for some, which were lately in less request. Brazilian Bonds have reached 935. to 931, and Sardinian Bonds are decidedly better. Strong efforts are made to keep up Mexican. The official report states the transactions as follows : Brasilian Bonds. Five per Cente., 901, 93, 91, 931; Austrian Bonds, Five per Cents., 73; Dutch Two and-a-Half per Cents. Bonds, 595; di to Four per Cent.

Spanish Active Five per Cent. Bonds, 21; ditto for account, 201; ditto Three per Cent. Bonds for account, 40, 401. Venezuela Bonds Three and-a-Quarter per Cents., 361, 3, 36. The Californian gold mining shares are rather flatter to-day, owing to the failure above alluded to, the party in question having "bulled" their shares to some extent. Present prices are :—Nouveau Monde shares, 7-16 to 9-16 prem.; Agua Fries, 11 to 15 prem. ; Golden Mountain, 4 to 1 prem. ; West Ma riposa, I to prem.; Ave Maria, par to 1 prem. The following memorial against the confiscation of one-half of the coupons has been forwarded to us by the committee of Spanish bondholders: TO TIIECHANIREB. OF DEPUTIES. The Chamber of Deputies being again assembled, the undersigned delegate of the committee of Spanish bond holders in London has the honour to approach with the most profound respect that enlightened legislative body, for the purpose of calling their attention to an omission of se rious prejudice to the notional credit existing in the law lately promulgated for the settlement of the public debt of Spain. This consists in the second article of the said law, which, whilst directing that the overdue and unpaid interests of the Active Debt are to be converted into De ferredTh ree per Cent .Debt, being previously reduced one-half,does not decade the fate reserved for the other half of the said interests. It being impossible that the law intended the gratuitous re duction to one-half its value of a legitimate and sacred pro perty, distributed among thousands of families, it can only be attributed to the desire of hereafter rendering full justice, and the omission must be, ascribed to the circumstance of Outmode in which the other moiety of those interests are to be provided for not having been resolved upon, foe those interests form a credit of so sacred and privileged a nature against the public treasury, and in favour of those who have not received the value in effee , ive, as they ought to have done, in accordance with the conditions of the loans from which the claims emanate, and which are so much the more deserving of attention u they were contracted for abroad for the purpose of aiding the Spanish nation in most critical circumstances Her Majesty's government, being convinced of the truth of this, have just presented to the Cortes a modification of the said law in the part relating to the overdue interests of the home debt called " Corriente del duce por cleats papel," proposing their conversion into " dee& amorti zabbd." Whilst this just reparation is made with respect to the said debt, the reduction of a half of the coupons of the ac tive stock is nevertheless maintained, which has given rise to such just reclamation' at the meetings held by creditors, especially in England, where public promises are held in such respect, and where the religious observance of good faith has elevated public credit to a moat enviable height. For these reasons, and not being able to persuade myself that in stipulating the said reduction the government have allowed themselves to he influenced by the circumstance that the greater part of the claimants are foreigners who have lent the capital from which the overdue interest arises, I venture to solicit the Chamber of Deputies with entire con fidence, and with the greatest respect, to take into their serious consideration this just reclamation and to decide about the other half of the above - men tioned interests, ordering them to be made good in the Deferred Debt of the Three per Cents., the same as is decreed for one half of them in the expressed law. By a similar measure the Congress will most effectually contribute to the permanent restoration of public credit, which is now so depressed by the omission in question— an omission which has given rise to deep sensation and displeasure both in and out of Spain. The delegate of the English Committee of Spanish Bondholders. DANIEL WEISWEILLER. Madrid, Nov.ll, 1861. - - - - - - . We may perhaps bo excused for drawing atten tion to the fact that the Express and Daily News are the only papers that have continued to note the progress of the revolutionists in the northern provinces of Mexico up to the present period, w hen they are in possession of Ma tamoros. The intelligence published from time to time for months past relative to this important point, and to the distracted state of Mexico gene rally, being in part, but in part only, derived rut the United States, has in most instances been met with expressions of doubt by parties interested, who have not hesitated to stigmatise the whole narrative as a malignant invention of the American press, though what attainable object the United States jour nals could have in view appears inexplicable. We feel bound to say that our American contemporaries seem to have been actuated by perfect bona fides in their statements relative to Mexican affairs, as mistakes have in very few in stances occurred, and, where this has been the case, the imperfect and irregular media of communication with the southern republic afford a sufficient expla nation. The number of influential parties both here and in Mexico who are interested in deluding the bondholders as to the real state of affairs may ac count for the systematic course of misrepresentation so long indulged in. Great alarm has now been ex cited among the bondholders, who begin to see that the market has been artificially propped up, and the question of the source from which the next divi dend payments are to be made, and the subject of the actual position of the federal government are can vassed withalniost equalanxiety. Loud complaints are indulged in at the petty amount of the custom-horse receipts which have as yet come forward on dividend account, and the full enforcement of the terms of the agreement with the Mexican government is gene rally demanded. To sup for instance, that the 20,000 dole. which came f orward by the last steamer is the fourth (as agreed upon) of the total duties col lected at the ports hypothecated to the bondholders, is regarded as simply absurd. Meanwhile, almost the only prop to the declining price of the bonds is the hope of the ultimate division of the two-and-a-half million dollars of the American indemnity money, and even this mace is now looked upon as decidedly in jeopardy. It is one of the greatest complaints of the bondholders, that they are kept in a state of the most perfect ignorance as to their actual position and prospects, and thus, whilst accurate information is reamed by the London speculators by every _mail, the actual bondholders are completely in the dark, and can scarcely be said to derive the lout real benefit from the staff which they keep up. Not much business has been done in bank shares this week, and quotations have scarcely varied. The sales reported comprise :—British North American (501. paid), 451 ; London Joint Stock (101. paid), 181 ; London and Westminster (201. paid), 291 ; Provincial of Ireland (25?. paid), 431 ; Union of London (101. paid), 151, 1, j. Dock shares are firm and looking up ; Commercial stock is well supported at the late use, marking 851. London stock has risen 30e. more, being quoted 1181. East and West India is worth 1421 to 143, being a rise of about 11. on the price that ruled a month ago. In steam-boat shares there has been a fair business, and no particular alteration in value. General Steam Navigation have improved, being quoted 271. Penin sular and Oriental Steam, 70, 691, 701, 70; ditto, New, 151, 16. Royal Mail Steam, 80, 791, 1, 80, 97 I. The market for insurance shares feels the influence of the improved condition of the money market, seve ral descriptions of these securities meeting with in creased inquiry, with prices tending upwards. Atlas shares have further risen to 17 and 171; and Guar dians have realised as high as 55Z, 551, and 55. In demnity Marine shares, on the other hand, mark 48 only ; and Legal and General Life have receded to 44.

Electric Telegraph shares are this day, for the first time, introduced into the official list, but no business is as yet marked in them.

LEAP FROM A RAILWAY TRAIN.—OR Saturday ' morning last Francis Farrington, one of the six prisoner" committed at Wolverhampton on Wednesday last, on charge of night poaching with violence, succeeded, by • desperate effort, in escaping from the custody of Sub-in spector Thompson, of Bilston, whilst being conveyed by train from Willenhall station to Stafford. Farrington and several other prisoners were handcuffed in the usual way to a chain. Farrington sat next to the locked door of the carriage, and by some means succeeded in working his hand out of the handcuff unobserved. Soon after the train had passed Wolverhampton station, and whilst it was at full speed somewhere in the neighbourhood of Bushbury, Farrington jumped head foremost out of the window, and fell on the outside of the line. Thompson endeavoured to arrest the attention of the guard at the foremost part of the train, but could not succeed in doing so. He was seen about a quarter of an hour afterwards on the ground, near the line, bleeding from his head, by some platelayers in the employ of the railway company, %he in quired how he got there, but they could not obtain from him any satisfactory answer, and shortly afterwards they saw him going across the fields towards Wolverhampton.— Wolverhampton Chronicle. _ _ DEATH OP MARIA CLARKE, THE INFANTICIDE. — Yesterday Mr. Bedford held an inquest at Milbank Prison, on the body of Maria Clarke, the young woman who, hav ing been found guilty at Ipswich of the murder of her child, by burying it alive, was sentenced to death, but afterwards respite and t ransferred to Milbank Peniten tiary. The deceased arrived at the prison Sept.:lB, in good health, and was sent to work in the laundry, described by the surgeon of the prison as a lofty and airy room, where the women work at a table from six in the morning till seven at night, without taking open-air exercise, except on Sundays.. The surgeon said the women gene rally prefer working in the laundry, because they are allowed to talk and have beer. She was removed from the laundry on Oct. 22, and her diet was changed. She seemed much de pressed in mind, and on the sth of November entered the infirmary, and went to her bed, from which she never again rose. During her illness she had regular medical attention and suitable diet, but gradually sunk. She had no wish to live, and did not want to see her relations. The jury returned a verdict of " Natural death from dysentery," and, at their request, the medical gentleman pledged him self to represent to the governor their opinion that the women in the laundry ought to be allowed an airing at least ones a day.

THE DESTRUCTION OF A WHALE Suit' PT A WALLA is thus described in the J'atiansa Herald, Oct. 16, which gives " the narrative as furnished us by Cap tain Deblois, and which is fully authenticated Tay nine of the crew in a protest under the seal of the United States Consul, Alex. Roden, Jr., at Paita." The ship Ann Alexander, Captain S. Deblois, sailed from New Bedford, Mass., June let. 1850, for a cruise in the South Pacific for sperm whale. On the 20th August last she reached what is well known to all whalers as the •• off shore-ground," in lat. 5 deg. 60 min. south, lots. 102 deg. west. In the morning of that day, at about 9 o'clock, whales were discovered in the neighbourhood, and about noon, the same day, they succeeded in making lust to one. Two haat• had gone after the whales—the larbmud and starboard, the fonner commanded by the first mate, and the latter by Captain Deblois. The whale which they had struck, was harpooned by the larboard boat. After running some time, the whale turned upon the boat, and rushing at it with tremendous violence, lifted open its enormous jaws, and taking the boat in, actually crushed it into frag moots as small as a common-nixed chair ! Captain Deblois immediately struck for the scene of the disaster with the starboard boat, and succeeded against all expectation in rescuing the whole of the crew of the boat—nine in num ber. There were noweighteen men in the starboard boat. consisting of the captain, the tint mate, acid tee crews of both boats. The frightful disaster had been witnessed from the ship, and the waste-boat was called into readiness and sent to their relief. The distance from the ship was about six miles. As soon as the waste-boat arrived, the crews were divided, and it was determined to pursue the same whale, and make another attack upon him. Accordingly they separated, and proceeded at some distance from each other, as is usual on such occasions, after the whale. In • short time they came up to him, and pre pared to give him battle. The waste-boat, com manded by the first mate, was in advance. As soon as the whale perceived the demonstration being made upon him, ho turned his course, suddenly, and making a tremendous dash at this beat, seized it with wide-spread jaws, and crushed it into atoms, allowing the men barely time to escape his vengeance by throwing them selves into the ocean. Captain Deblois, again seeing the perilous condition of his men, at the risk of meeting the same fate, directed his boat to hasten to their rescue, and us a short time succeeded in saving them all from a death little less horrible than that from which they had twice so nar rowly escaped. lie then ordered tiro boat to jut for the ship as speedily as possible ; and no sooner had the order been given than they discovered the monster of the deep making toward them with his jaws widely extended. For tunately the monster came up and passed them at a short distance. The boat then made her way to the ship, and they all got on board in safety. After reaching the ship • boat was despatched for the oars of the demolished boats, and it was determined to pursue the whale with the ship. As soon as the boat returned with the oars sail was set, and the ship proceeded alter the whale. In a short time she overtook him, and a lance was thrown into his head. The ship passed on by him, and immediately after they dis covered that the whale was making for the ship. As he came up near her they hauled to the wind, and suffered the monster to pass her. After he had fairly passed, they kept off to overtake and attack him again. When the ship had reached within about fifty rods of him they discovered that the whale had settled down deep below the surface of the water, and as it was near sundown they concluded to give up the pursuit. Captain Deblois was at this time standing in the night-heads, on the larboard bow, with craft in hand, ready to strike the monster a deadly blow, should he appear, the ship moving about five knots, when, work ing on the side of the ship, he discovered the whale rushing towards her at the rate of fifteen knots I In an instant the monster struck the ship with tremendous violence, shaking her from stem to stern! She quivered under the violence of the shock, as if she had struck upon a rock. Captain Deblois immediately descended into the forecastle, and there to his horror discovered that the monster had struck the ship about two feet from the keel, abreast the foremast, knocking a great hole en tirely through her bottom, through which the water roared and rushed impetuously. Springing to the deck, he or dered the mate to cut away the anchors and get the cables overboard to keep the ship from sinking, as she had a large quantity of pig iron on board. In doing this the mate succeeded in relieving only one anchor and cable clear, the other having been fastened around the foremost. The ship was then sinking rapidly. The captain went to the cabiu, where he found three feet of water ; he, however, succeeded in procuring a chronometer, sextant, and chart. Beaching the decks be ordered the boats to bo cleared away, and to get water and provisions, as the ship was keeling over. Be again descended to the cabin, hut the water was rushing in so rapidly that he could procure nothing. lie (tams upon deck, ordered all hands into the boats ' and was the lest himself to leave the ship, which he did by throwing himself into the sea, and swimming to the nearest boat ! The ship was on her vans-end, her topgallant yards under water. They then pushed off some distance from the ship, expecting her to sink in a very short time. Upon an els mination of the stoma they had been able to _save, he dis covered that they had only twelve quarts of water, and not a mouthful of provisions of any kind. The boats contained eleven men each • were leaky, and night coming on, they were obliged to b ail them all night to keep them from sink ing. Next day, at daylight, they returned to the ship ; no one daring to venture on board but the captain, their inten tion being to cut away the masts, and fearful that the moment that the masts were out away the ship would go down. With a single hatchet the cap tain went on board, cut away the mast, when the ship righted. The hash then came up, and the men, by the sole aid of spades, cut away the chain cable from around the foremast, which got the ship nearly on her keel. The men then then tied ropes round their bodice, got into the sea, and cut a hole through the decks to get provisions.
