T he defendant's father had as for— tone, and was very straitened in eircanstences wing the latter part of his life. Mr. Whiting, at present a clerk in the Custom Hone tiee gad d that the detrodaat and his brother boarded and with him in 1830 and 1831. At that time he kept a green's shop in Chapel-street, Gromenorapare. 'they came to hie house to take spartateats as respectable young gentlemen. They apparently had no mew at their own disposal, but the lets Berl of Limerick paid (through a Mr. Poole, who had married ore of the Ladies Perry) about Si. 12s. 6d. a week for their board, lodging, washing, and attendance. If they required any nanny, retch as clothes, he.. witness had instructions to inform Mr. Poole, who ordered him to purchase them at the cheapest rate possible. Witness was slap directed to keep theta out of debt, and make it known that they wen minors, foe they were at that time respectively ally 18 and 19 years of age, although in appearance they wen over 21 years of age. In May, 1831, the plaintiff called on Mr. Perry (the defendant) at witness's hones. Witneas asked him, afar be had seem the defendant, what was his business ? The plaintiff said he was a tailor, and had left large quantities of clothes ordered by Mr. Perry. He asked whether he knew Mr. Perry was a minor ; the plaintiff said me did not, and predated this bill in question, which be said the defendant had gives him that day—that it was accepted by the late Lord Olentworth. who had received, es part of the consideration, 101. from plaintiff in cash. Witness then said that Lord Oleatwath had been in very embarrassed cimunssuinces for many years. , and that the bill was not worth a penny. Witness then ad vied the plaintiff to get his clothes hack, whereupon he weat upstairs, but cassiderable uproar having ensued, witness followed, and saw the plaintiff endeavouring to force away the clothe. ; the defendant, who was dressed is one of the nits, ranting him. Wine% recommended the defendant to give them up, which ultimately was needed to, except the nit defendant had on. The plaintiff took the rest away. The young men had no pursuit or occupation whatever. This having closed the defendant's ease, Mr. Baddeley contended that there was no notice of dishnour. The Lord Chief Barn called attention to a late ens de. Meting that an admission of liability on a;bill of enhance after it armed at maturity was evidence to go to a jury of notice of dishonour. Mr Martin, in reply, said the defendant's counsel claimed credit for him for acting fairly in not resisting the demand against himself personally, every shilling of which he said bad been paid, but he had notwithstanding availed himelf of the most dishonourable kind of defence that could be picked up. The statute of limitations was a very proper and • wise law to prevent persons being compelled to pey debts twice over, perhaps alter having lost all proofs of the fact of the first payment. But in a case like the pr e sent, sheer the defendant acknowledged the debt was due, and hail it properly vouched, the dance set up was most dis reputable. Thom there was the plea of infancy. There was never • more bOourable debt, nor was there ever a more dishorei table defence. The jury could manly imagine that any man would he guilty of the mesuneir to put on a suit of clothes, contrary to the owner's wishes, and refuse to give them up or pay for them. Now, after the lapse of 18 years, the in was obliged to res ort to legal procenines, elan fortune had wiespectedly raised the defendant to rank and wealth. His lordship's answer now was that he would not pay for it, as the suit was not a " necesetry," earl if it was a "ni sary," ke was proceeded by the statute of liu itations. He said he was prepared to pay his owu part, but not his brother's. That was hypocritical defence. (A laugh.) He had, in fact, never paid the one or the other. Oise would not expert to bear of such conduct from one brother to an other us any rash in life, certainly not in the defendant's. The Lord Chief Baron said the principal question for the jury was, whether the defendant had given Green the cheque for 1001., in discharge of the stAtionery account only, or in liquidation of the entire, without reterence to any par ticular pert of the account. The jury at once fund • vet , dim for the plaintiff, with 1001. damages. On the apple ation of Mr. Miller, an order was made for *nay execution within a week. EXCHEQUER CHAMML—TIBTIMUAT.

The court, {mowing that his lordship had provided for another lady under hie will who had livid with him previously, felt that such also alight be the cam is the present instance ; and it had the evidence of the mother, to whoa he had frequently isti mated his jauntiest to provide for her daughter. By the will of 1844, Colonel Damn Dawson had been appoisted executor, and had proved that will, but took no notice atlas codicil. He was arards called upon to do so, when Col. D.

On this occasion he made up hie mind to maks this which is attested by Mrs. Bosley and the servant of the house who were present when his lordship dictated the commits of this paper, and then signed it. The question is, is this Lord Portalington's signature, or is it not ? Two witnesses swear it is, the other party . denies it ; but no evi dence has been adduced to prove it r not—then the court snot admit it, Wog satisfied that this is the signature of Lord Portarlington, and made at the time stated by the *imams.

The word " deed" was also objected to, but the witness* assert, as far as they remember, they were his words. It must he remem bered that his lordship was apprehensive of his death ; thus act was, therefore, forced upon him, he having expressed hie intention to have had it drawn up in • regular to, stating it was his intentioo to call upon his solicitor the rs evening of the day of his death, which took place immedia sly alter the execution of the codicil—taking all these circumstances into consideration it would pus over these objections. The Court had evidence to the aignature of his lordship, but no it had been given on the other side, and it be tiretlatrithis instrument wu the substance of his inten• trim. It also felt there were no great discrepancies in the evidence of the two witnesses. Alter such • lapse of time it might easily occur that one person may remember one owarreaos, and another person another fact, and yet agree in the main features of the caw, it, therefore Pelt these wattages WOOD deserving of credit. BUSS Barley bad observed to his lordship, who had expressed his impa tience, that " there was hope in the eftveuth hour," when bit lordship replied, " he had arrived at the twelfth hour." Os the gesetien of the signature, the court thought ft was wow maftlyed than usual ; but his lonlahip's indisposition anoustal far 'hat, and the two witnesses had attested to its Wog his handwriting. There was one tlinig which was gagalar, that this paper was not brou ht forward till loci; after the deceased's death. The reason given was, that they were desirous of making some veins with the family of the deceased, as no provision had been made for her unit 'r the will. No mention of this paper was made to Mr. Dover when the will was given up, and the reason stated for this wet, that they oid not consider it a legal instrument, as it was not stamped. The oppcaing parties say this paper wee cosiccered in baud. The court could not entertain such a view of it, for it felt this was the last in' ention ot hie lordship. It must, therefore, pronounce for the codicil, and the parties were entitled to their costs out of the estate, and now collect on Col. D. Dawson to extract probate. The court felt no surprise at the proposal made by Miss Barley to accept • cer tain sum, when it considered her situation, and the embar rassed posiion in which his lordship lett his estate.—Dr Jenne' asked for probate in fifteen days. The court thought it could not entertain the application. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT.•-.YINTIUDAT. Before the Chief Coolasissioser. lat as T. W. MAVINFIE O'Kaarg.—This petitioner, a , member of the literary profession, was opposed if hie eippli. cation by Mr. Nichols, on the behalf ot Mr. Peter Parent, , and by Mr. Hughes fur the asignees of Mr. Swan.—Mr. Lewis, the attorney, said it wee not until this morning that the insolvent became aware of the intention of Mr. Parent to oppose, and as his (Mr. Lewis's) client wished to have the advantage of profewional support, he begged the court wou'd adjourn the case to give time for counsel to be instructed. — The Cusmilnioner consented to a slant adjournment.—As the petitioner was about to leave the boa his Honour said he had go call the attention of Mr. O'Keefe to the feet of a Masa baying been forwarded to him (Mr. Reynolds). signed by emu person calling himself "A Lover of Justice," which wee of eo important a caarecter, as far as relay el to the in solvent, that if its contents were to he accepted as truth it would sewn the whole of the schedule was false from begin ning to end. He (the Commissioner) was very much sur prised how say penes signing himself or herself A Lover of Justice," could be ignorant of the impropriety of addressing anonymous letters to a commueloner with the view of raising a prejudice against an insolvent. Ile should certainly not allow the information tendered In the communication he had received to ii.fluence his judgment in the slightest degree neither should be per mit any person but the petitioner to Income acquainted with the nature of it, at the ague time, he would strongly advise the insolvent to be careful how be swore to his sande!e as it then stood. It was possible the letter might suggest reasons why some arrangement should be ant-red into by the aleph. cant fur the benefit ot his creditors. The communication al laded to was then handed to the insolvent, who, having carefully permed it, declared its contents to be s tissue of falsehoods, and requested that he alight be favoured with a copy in order that he might retute the charge' contained in it. The Commissioner said he could not comply with the application, but advised the insolvent to ponder well over it between this and the day to which his case would be adjourned—namely, the 19th of December. Is an R. Twice.—The petitioner in this case, a solicitor and managing clerk in an attorney's o ffi ce at a salary of 2501. a year, was uaupposed. The debts set forth in the schedule amounted to 19,1741. 17s. 6d.; of which 17,1521 9s. Id. were liebilities for which he had received no consideration. The Commissioner questinred the insolvent as to his dealings, and from the answers given, it appeared that in 1845 and put of 1846 be was director of two railways —the Oatord, Theme, and High Wycombe Company, soil the Lincoln and Sheffield Company—in which c apacity he had unfortunately incurred the great bulk of his liabilities. The actual amount of his debt., for which he had received consideration, was 2,0001., which was money borrowed Irom friends who would not think of molesting him. He had trade debts to the sum ot 701. The Commissioner wished he could see a different spirit actuate the parties who made application here. There was a great want of feeling on the part of debtors for their civilian, their only object appearing to be to see how easily they could get rid of the claims made upon them. The insolvent in this ease was a man with a good salary and without family, and he (Mr. Reynolds) would advise him to consider bi the time sopointed for hi. final order to be granted, whether it would not be well for him to make some good assignment for the benefit ot creditor,.

POCOCK AND ANOTHER —TABSPAP4.—Thit was a writ of inquiry to MOM, in as action to recover corn penution in damages from the defendants for having broken into and destroyed a cottage and garden attached there%) in the Caledonian road.—Mr. Charnock, in stating the ease for the plaintiff, said that the defendants were Mr. Pocock, 'an extensive landholder at Islington, and Mr. Glenn, a mortar builder in the Caledonian•road. Some years ago Mr. Pocock let out a part of an estate of his called "Pocock's Fields," for the purpose of being converted into gardens by = humble means, and amongst the &Bonus 11118 a of the plaintiff's.

Culliford, 24, was charged with klindesely forging and tittering sa in dorsement to a bill el osisemp for WI. with intent to de fraud William Ma rt in Ilwinfold.—Mr.,Robieson prosecuted. Mr.Biulastine appeared fir the defence.—The prosecutor de posed that he (*cried en the business of a lithographic printer, end be had bees asquainted with the prisoner, who is a lithogrephie writer Se several years, and had given him employment Whig prsjriea. In Mar last the prisoner came to his shop sad probated a bill far 231., damn by him self epos Mr. Paul Bedford, the sentedisa, sad which 1 1 1 , - to bear the nr that miatleman, and also rd i open d it the thmthma Kr, Ohmage Manby, the ssereaux to the Inallsation at Civil Ragiseers. The priemer told .him that it was the settlement of an account between him and Mr. Bedford, end he wanted him to give 20 7 . for the bill. He gave the prisoner two 101. notes, and received the bill, believing the 'animas and indorsement to be genuine. The body of the bill was in the prisoner's handwriting, but he was unable to speak as to the acceptance or indorsement. Croesmumined: He had known the prisoner 14 or 16 years, sad they had had many trassertioes together, and be always found him set in • most honourable runner. He had dkeunted several other bills for him, and the whole of them were paid with the en. caption of the bill now in qu. stion and another tor 301.—Mr Bedford deposed that the acceptance to the bill produced was not his h writing, and that be never gave the prisoner or say other person authority to sign hisname to such an instru ment, In sower to questions put by Mr. Ballentine, Mr. Bed ford said that he had - known the prisoner from a boy, and they were schoolfellows together. He had a very high opinion of his honour and istegrity ; but he wee aware that he had lat terly fa len into difficulties. He had masted the prisoner on several occasions ; but he certainly had never led him to suppose that he had any authority to use his name to • bill, altbotuh, if he had asked him to accommodate him with Ws aceeptance he should not have hesitated to do so, believing, from his 'knowledge the prisoner, that he was too honourable to suffer him to be a loser by so doing.—Mr. Mashy deposed that the prisoner bad been employed by the Institution of Civil Engineers es a lithographic writer; but he never gave him any authority to put his name to a bill of exchange, and the in dorsement upon the bill in question was a forgery. In crosaexamination by Mr. Salentine, the witness said that at this time there would have been a sum of 371. due to the prisoner, but he would not be entitled to receive it until he had completed some work which he was engaged upon. lie had always entertained a goot opinion of the prisoner, and head him well spoken of. When the prisoner was paid money on their account it wu always by a cheque from the council of the institution, and never by a bill of exchange.— A later was then put in, written by the prisoner to the pro s, color, in which he stated that it was his intention to leave the country, but, before he did so, he thought it right to in form him that the two bills in his passamion were 82- titious, but it was his intention to do all that he 'mild to make up the amount, and that he would remit it to him the moment he wi.s able to do so. Mr. Salentine, in addressing the jury for the prisoner, made a meet forcible appeal to their feelings in his behalf, urging that be had no intention to defraud the prosecutor, and that athough be had acted indiscreetly, the evidence would not julify them in convicting him of this charge, and subjecting him to the dreadful consequences which must inevitably follow such a result.—Mr. Justice Coltman having summed up, the jury, after deliberating for a short time, returned their verdict finding tie prisoner guilty of uttering the forged instrument, knowing the acceptance to be forged, but they at the same time said they did nut think he had any in tention to defraud.—Mr. Justice Coltman said that this was in effect a verdict of Not guilty. The prisoner was thee arraigned upon another indictment. charging him with uttering a tinged bill of exchange for 301. to the same prosecutor. The evidence in this case wee precisely the same as in the last, with the exception that instead of the bill merely purporting to bear the indorse ment of Mr. Math y, it was represented to be accepted by that gentlemen. Mr. Manby proved the forgery, end re peated his statement that he never gave the prisoner any authority to put his name to a bill of this description. In cross-examination he said that the prisoner was engaged upon work for the institution, and used to receive money on secouut. There might have been so much as 1301. due to him, but the whole wu paid, with the exception of the sum he had mentioned, which he would not be entitled to receive until the work wee completed.—The prisoner here observed that the whole amount due to him wee 2081.—Mr. Manby said this ught be the correct sum, bat the whole had been paid, with the exception of the balance to which he had alluded. He also said that wit was necessary the cheques of the institution should be signed by three of the council, end seat times it was difficult to procure their attenehince,he had upon one occasion been security for the prisoner for a sum of 1001. which was advanced to him by a gentleman named Webster to enable him to go on with the work en which he wee engaged.—Mr. Ballantw again addressed the jury for the defence, and ai.id it appeared to him that this cue presented a much more favouri.ble septet for the pr.soner than the one which thy had just tiepin-ad of, and he coofidi ntly looked forward to the rum- re , tilt as in that case. The whole offence imputed to the prisoner consisted of a felonious intention ; and he submitted that no such intention had been made out, and that, on the contrary, it was clear that the prisoner, believing that money wee due to him from the institution, had most indiscreetly and improperly pieced the name of Mr. Mat.by upon the bill, but that he had no intention to defraud that gentleman er any other linens —Mr. Justice Coltman, in the course of his summing up, told the jury that certainly the intention to defraud wee a materiel ingredient in charges of this description ; bat he was bound to tell them that it would be a vet y dangerous proceeding for a jury to take upon the melees to distinguish be tween the natural tendency of a men's actions and what his actual intention might have been. If a man handed to another person a bill of 'mining* appererdly accepted by some one of responsibility, who woulu be likely to pay the amount, knowing at the time that the acceptance wee a for gery, it appeared to dim it would be a very dangerous doc trine to say that there was no intenaon to defraud the party to whom the tall was passed. In ninety-nine eases out of a hundred the party who uttered a forged bill Intended to take it up wlue , it became due, because he was well aware that it he old not do se, immediate discovery and prosecution must ensue, hut still he was willing that the person who received the forged instrument should run the risk of his not being able to do so, and thus be defrauded of the amount.— Thejury, after a short consideraion, found the prisoner rainy, but strongly recommended him to the merciful con sideration of the court on account of the circuoistanc., un der which the offence had been c mmitted and the previous good character of the prisoner.—Mr. Robinson said he was instructed by the prosecutor to join in the recommendation. —Mr. Justice Coltman said he would consider what sen tence ought to be p rou pooe,,i. TUN SAXON ESI4 ST. MUST.—In the course of the day the graitd jury came into court and presented a true bill fur fe lony marina the Baroness St. Mart.--Mr. Bodkin shortly afterwards made an applicsti-n to the court to fix the day for the trial. He said that although the charge was merely one of common larceny, it was very much desired both on the part of the prosecution and by the h.ironem herself, the the case sl ould be tried by one of the Queen's judges. his learned friend, Mr. Cockburn, wee .penally instructed to defend the accused, and if his lord ship sew no objection, datarday would be a convenient day. —Mr. Justice Coltman said he knew wolfing of the case, but he wished to be informed whether it wee likely to last more than one day I—Mr. Bailantine said there was no chance of that.—Mr. Justice Coltman said if that were so he had no objection to the audeation being granted, and the trial wee accordingly fixed for Saturday —--- OUlLDRALL.—Bundhany. W. Day was finely exa mined on the charge of bn eking into the premises of Mr.. Reed, working jeweller, of 38, Fetter-lane,. and stealing therefrom a variety of trinkets and other ar ticles. On the 28th ult., about twoo'clock in the morning, Police-contest le Venom, on going his rounde, punned open a door in Newill's-curt, Fetter-lane. leading to Chapel-place, where he observed the prisoner drop from a high wall at the back of Mr. Reed's premises. He queen fled the prisoner as to his business there. He pretended to be intoxicated, and said that he had only fallen down. The officer took him into custody, and on the way to the station-house he drew out a harp-pointed file. and said that if he was not released he would run it into him (Yenees). The file was then taken from him. The prison , r then took out sums skeleton keys and dropp. d them t' rough a grating into one of the sewers, hut they were afters ens recovered. After this he assaulted the abr. r several times and nods neat efforts to get away, but tuey were ineffectual. When searched, a number of things belongng to Mr. Red and his men were toned in his pooession, brides a coat which he had on his back, and which belonged to the errand Ou examining the pre. miles, it was discovered that he must hive got on the roof of the workshop in the rear of Mr Reed's dwelling-house and forced open the trap-dour, the bolt falling into the shop below. After ?smocking the men's tool drawers, be selected one and tried to force open the iron-bound door leading to the counting-house, but not succeeding, he then placed a ladder to a small window leading to the females' workshop, which also had a door bound with iron, and which he tried with a knit., but, having ascertained that fact, he appeared either to have given the whole affair up as a bad job or to have been disturbed, which caused has hasty retreat and quick capture, after having secured only a few trifling iri des of no very great value.—Sir C. Manhall committed him for trial. WBEITMINSTER.—Gems MURDER. —S, Waller was charged with the wilful murder of her child, A verdict of wilful murder was recorded against her by a co rossee jury a few days ago. —M. Steel, midwife, proved that the prisoner gave birki to a female in tent on the eveninr of last Monday week. —ld. A. Bums confirmed her evidence, and said—" On the morning after the birth of the child, when I went into the prisoner's room, she said she would go out for she felt better—that eke Gould sot lay there and starve, and that if she went to her mistress she could get what she wanted, and likewise leave her baby with the nuns that tuned the ether. At about two o'clock I went Into her room s 'a, and laud her up and dressed. She washed and dressed the baby, and then laid it upon a chair, when I remarked—' What a beentifal healthy creature.' She said—. Let you mother see It,' sad I sailed my mother to look at it. She then wrapped the baby in a shawl, and having placed it under the one she wore, left the house with it. At about a quarter past ten that night I saw the prisoner entering her own room who said, 'I have had a bother with a policemen here, on suspicion of my doing something to my baby.' I said, ' Where is your baby ? ' when she replied, ' I left it with the nurse that nursed my girl.' "—E. S. Ilea- Ding, living at 3, Plummer's-row, said, on the previous Wed nesday the saw the prisoner go out of the bones at about half-pest three o'clock, with mouthing like a bundle un der her arm. She retuned at seven o'clock without a child. Thinking something wu wrong, she went out and told a pollinate's, who returned with her to the house, but did not go into the prisoner's with the sergeant Shortly after this she Naked the prisoner what she had done with the baby. She said she had taken it to No. 4 down a court at Beekhead. Witness's husband went there, but re we ted saying he couldn't find the child; but before he returned the prisoner said she went to Dockhead first, to try =dirt • penon to mind her child, but nu one would Wm it best her without money, and so she went to the first molar post St. George's Hospital, end having sat down pissed the baby . in her lap and she looked at her child, end got up again and walked away, and, the devil Ong her, she walked back, took the shawl off it , and Crhe baby on its side on a dungheap, and covered its face with a handkerchief, and spread its little bedgown open that some one might see it, and the cutlets might take it to their wives. Witham immediately went to the station-house and acquainted Sergeant Foay with what had fallen from the prisoner, who requested that witness's husband should be sent for the child.—Constable Faddy proved that he hid interrogated the primmer. She at first told the same story as detailed above, about having left the child at Dock ' head, but subsequently, after he had made the most search ing inquiries in that neighbourhood to emertain if such were the fact, admitted to him that she rode in an omnibus to Hyda.park-corner, and left the child on a dung heap, as described, thinking somebody would find it and take care of it. Witness, alter his first visit, called a medical man, end subsequently conveyed the prisoner to Ratcliff workhouse. — W. Westcett proved that on last Thursday morning, a few minutes after aim, he found the dead infant in Belgrave mews East, on a dunghill, in the rear of Lind Combermere's man sico.—S. Smith, • female searcher at the Pimlicostation.htuse. proved finding the cap and bedgown produced, which were identified by Mrs. Burns, on the person of the dead infant. W.

TIIITIIIIDAT IMMO: The funds opened this morning with rath e r a de cided improvement, both in the tone of the market and in prices, as contrasted with appearances in the latter part of yesterday. Consols were first quoted 87: to 4, and the first transactions effected were at 871 both for money and time. After occasional fluctuations, one way and the other, of 1, they settled at the close of business at 87: to 4 both for time and money. Reduced Threes left off 861 to 1. Three and.a-Quarter per Cents., 867 to 1. Long An nuities, 8 9-16 to 1. Exchequer Bills, 42a. to 46a. pm. Bank Stock, 1871 to 94. India Bonds, 375. to 40s. pm. India Stock, 235 to 7. South Sea stock was sold as high as 95/, and Old South Sea Annuities at 841. The Usual weekly Bank of England Board was held to-day, but after a very short sitting adjourned without making any alteration in the rate of discount in the shape of reduction, or otherwise, about which vague rumours have been afloat for some days past. The absurdity of these rumours has been already re marked upon under this/ head yesterday, and it re mains only to add now that it may be safely affirmed such a question has never yet been mooted, or been contemplated, m the Bank parlour since the alteration so recently carried into effect. At a time when money is evidently more in demand, as may be readily verified by re ference to the returns of the aggregate circulation of the United Kingdom given under this head some few days since only, it would manifestly have been an un called for and unprofitable proceeding to have arbi trarily interfered with the red r market appreciation of its true value, as measured by the rates of interest, in town and country ; more especially in the country, where money values are governed by circumstances I of local influence widely differing in many respects from the causes which operate upon the money mar ket of the metropolis. Much additional accommo dation is usually required in the country at this season of the year,or say commencing from September, sad ending with the month now commencing, from the occurrence of numerous great fairs and market meetings, as well as from the Michaelmas rents fall ing due, and variously payable according to differing customs from the beginning of October to the end of December, the evidence of which may be found in the increased amount of country banking issues, and of Bank of England circulation as well, to the aggregate amount of some one and a half million upon the last monthly comparison, deduction made of the excess of the latter forced oat against gold paid in, and carried to the Bank reserve. As the new i year opens this customary excess of issue, no longer wan'cd, will doubtless begin to return upon the banks, and thus the circulation be withdrawn into its former limits, supposing no enhancing disturbance of prices, or extraordinary improvement in mercantile affairs meanwhile. The foreign market was without any particular feature. Dutch Stocks were firm, and recovered 'he part.al depression of yesterday; the Two-and-a-Half per Cents. being quoted 474 to 81, the Fours 724 to 31. Russian, 99 to 101. Belgian, 71 to 3. Spanish Fives, 114 to 12, the Threes, 24,1 to 61; Passive, 3to 1. Portuguese, 244 to 54. Brazilian, 73 to 5. Chilian, 83 to 6. Ecuador, 24 to Z. Mexican, 211 tot. New Granada, 12 to 13. Venezuela, 14 to 16. The Banker's Magazine for December has the fol lowing apposite observations on the railway market, ' and share values for the last month : The price of railway shares, when we last wrote, had reached its lowest point. Ever since the been of our last number, there was a decided improvement in the market, founded upon the satisfactory official expositions either issued or promised by the leading companies. Speaking generally we see no reason to criticise the interpretation placed upon these explanatory documents. Wish prudent and vigilant s w ta i mcn:H a T i d e e t nol o g l i v ri e t do ne ain at dividendd ot th e gr eat si t x per h ee t tt es . and it is not at all improbable, when the experience and the lapse of a few yean hays fully developed the resources of the poorer tvat.ch lines—lines, which for a time at least, must term en incubus more or less oppressive upon the parent con cern—that even a dividend of sex per cent. may be perms neatly exceeded. A oontingency of this kind should not be overlooked by an active man in search of a safe and profitable resting-place for his money. And,'at least,there can be no teme rity in the opinion, that after recent events, and in the pre sence of our present knowledge, it will require some extra ordinary conjuncture of causes to produce any severe end lasting depreciation in the prices now current for tint elms shares.
