A coroner's inquest has been held upon the body by Mr. Carter, at Saint Thomas Hospital, and a verdict of "Accidental death" returned; but sines the inquest, evidence was produced to show airanmus' ion the part of the smiled. . Eines again attended on behalf of the prosecution, and Mr. W. Edwin defended the prisoner. Is addition to the evidease given last week, and which has appeared in this paper, r. William Willis was called—He said that he was • surgeon, and resided in Trinity square, Borough. Oa the night of the 21st ultimo he engaged the defendant to drive him from the City home. He drove up the Borough very carefully, and be was sure not mote than six or seven mike an hour. Witness did not give any intimation to him to go quick, uhe was oot in a hurry. He did not see any old people musing the road near St. George's Church, neither did be know that anyone bad been run over until the driver nulled up at the career of Church-street, when he got out of the cab and saw the female picked up from the road and placed in the vehicle. The cab was three feet from the herb as they peed the church. Mr. Frederick Jervis, house surge on at St. Thomas's Hos pital, mid that about half-past 10 o 'clock on Saturday eight, the 21st alt., • female, named Elizabeth Martha Strube, was brought is. quite dead. He examined her, and found the head smashed ig, and blood flowing from the ears, Does, and month. Death was caused by the injuries to the bead. Sergeant M'L.od, 457 A, timid that about 4 o'clock on the •mg of the 22nd alt. be took the defendant into custody at King's-cross. He admitted running over the female and causing her death, saying it was a bad job, but quite an accident.

Mr. Burcham observed that be had carefully examined all the evidence in this cam, and be could come to no other conclusion than that the prisoner caused the death of the old lady by carelessly driving. Under these dream- Man*, be fully immolated him for trial at the next Cen tral Criminal Court Sessions. At the request of Yr. Edwin, his worship accepted bail for his appear's:so at the sessions. MR. JUSTICE WILLES ON PRIZEFIGHTING. At Liverpool yesterday, Thomas Kidd, aged 17, James Hughes, aged 17 ; WM= Murray, aged 19 ; James °rumba", spend ; tied Thomas Hinkley. yd 17, were indicted for having at Balked. as the 11th of °Weber last, e prosecraM fekeiotudy killed and thin James Bargßargees.Mr. Kaye ifor thon, sad Mr. Pope and Mr. r o P r e r area defended the priermers. - After some 000•0116- ties between his lordship and the lensed pa tinas engaged is the mu, during which his lordship wee understood to say that if the primers were present at the prim fight as which the deemed last hislffe and, knowing what was taking place, raresinee and took Dart in the proceedings, they were responsible for the mom queues that might follow,. brief consultatiou took plaoe be tween the counsel for the defence and the prisoner,. —Mr. Ter (addressing hie lordship) said it was imporeible to deny that the prisoners were present at the fight, and it would be improper to waste the thireofthe court if his lordship thought that act bound them.—His lordship said they must place themselves in the bands of the court. The court was far from desiring to press too heavily upon them, seeing that they were young fellows, and more likely to break the law in this way.—Mr. Pope said that so far as Hughes was con cerned he did not deny being there. His lordship said that some time ago he tried some persons at Cardiff, when he had an opportunity of consulting the Chief Baron, and they both came to the conclusion that if a person was at a fight, and did ace go swim when he knew what was going on, then he came within the law, for it was fairly to be presumed ha was there aiding, giving encourage ment and weight to the proceedings, and, therefore, an accessory, Therefore, althou g h th e cour t m i g ht look into the circumstances of the case, yet it must be under stood that when persons attended a prise fight, and, know ing what was going on, did. not go away when they found two people fighting, then they must be answerable for what took place.—lt was intimated by the learned counsel that the primers withdrew the plea of sot guilty, and pleaded guilty to the charge.— His Lordship: What are the ages of the parties? They &ppm: to be under age.—The clerk of the : The oldest is 19. another is lit, sod the others rre ra r yaws of ege.—His Lordship asked what was the age of the deemed.—Kr. Kaye said between 17 and le—His Lordship said there did not appear what was called " foul play " in this um —Mr. Kay : No, my lord. — His Lordship : How is it that one of theewroomrs is described u levier been " master of the field ^-Mr. Torr mid that must be a mistake.—Mr. Pope, in answer to his lordship, said no doubt the ;wishbone ,could get bail for their future good coednet.—Mr. Kaye said that one of the reasons why the case was brought there was that these fights were becoming frequent in the neigh bourhood of Manchester.—His Lordship (addressing the prisoners) said they had pleaded guilty to the offence of mandatighter, and be thought they had been well advised by the learned counsel, for there could be no doubt that every person who attended at a prise fight, looked on, took part in the proceedings as one of the spectators, with the intention of being a spec tator, and remained and pee size to the crowd, or escounged the combatants, or in any other manner took part in it, then no doubt they were answerable for the coessmesces that might fellow. There could be no doubt that @though these things might be conducted on what was called "fair fighting," yet those attending them com mitted a breach of the law, which repressed proceedings of this kind. Christian men could not be allowed to beat one another with their fists into mummies. The prisoners unhappily attended the fight at which the deceased had het his life, and had committed an illegal act. He was very sorry to see from the deposi tions that this was a fight for money ; and it was a great pity to see yeses men like the prisoners taking part in an affair of this kind.. But they and others might depend upon it that if the law was broken in this way the sw world prove strong, sod they would he severely punished d the press was broken by affairs of tbis ,lescriptioe. Tht. prisoners were not the sort of persons whom he felt anon to punish in so severe • manner as he might hare done if they had been older persons, sod he did not think, under all the circumstances, that an, good would be dose to the country by locking them up any further; but they meld have to get some persona to enter into oalronsoces that they would keep the peace for the sere twelve months, and to come up for Judgment when celled upon.

Rumours were this morning in circulation to the effect that Hessian was in an alarming condition in con sequence of the " panialusent" be received in yesterday's contest, but it seems there is no foundation whatever for ap prehension. On arriving in London yesterday Heenan was conveyed in an private a manses as circumstances would admit, to a house in a quiet street in the neighbourhood of the Haymarket, where he immediately received the beat medical assistance. His entire frame was submitted to searching examination,and it was ascertained that, although the bruises and contusions under which be suffered were numerous and severe, arising from blows and falls, no bones were fractured, nor had he sustained any internal injury. His bead exhibits a ghastly appearance, the old wound on the lip, indicted during his fight with Sayers, having been re•opened, and his eyes greatly swollen and nearly closed. The sums of money inverted in bets oft this event are said to have been unsurpassed on any previous similar occasion, one member of the " prize ring" alone having held com missions tc the amount of upwards of 7,000/. to lay out as Hessen, and as the odds were so much against the victor the disappointment is peak. COMMERCIAL AHD MARKETS. Me RJE-LANI.—(THU3 DAY.) The arrival of English wheat fresh up to our market to-day was very moderate, and several parcels were received in poor condition. Generally speaking, the demand was very inactive. Good and fine dry parcels steadily supported Monday's currency, otherwise the quotations had a down ward tendency. The show of samples of foreign wheat on the stands was but moderate. There was no activity in the demand for any description. Nevertheless, importers were firm, and were indisposed to sell except at full prices. In floating cargoes of gabs only a moderate business was traasscaed on former terms. The supply of barley, both English and foreign, was some what extensive. The trade ruled heavy, at barely late rates. Malt was dull, yet no change took plate in its value. With oats the market was very moderately supplied. The domed, however, ruled far from active, yet prices were well supported. Beans were in fair supply and slow request, at Monday's . . . Peas met a slow sale end the quotations were rather drooping. The show of samples was moderately large. Barrel Sour was firm in prise, and other descriptions, although in slow request, supported Monday's currency. The seed trade was devoid of animation. The value of linseed and rapeseed had a downward tendency ; but in other seeds no quotable change took place. Cakes met a slow sale, on former terms. CULItiNT PRICE& ZIOLIBIL l'sr Qr. /Taut. a s.

Two o'Ospoz. The stock markets opened this morning with steadiness, in conseqnence of the favourable Bank return, but have 'Moe become heavy, the aspect of the question of the Danish Duchies having apparently induced some specula tive realisations. The funds have declined k per cent. Home railway stocks and the specula tive foreign securities have given way. At Paris this morning, according to Mr. Renter's telegram, the Three per Cent. Rentes were quoted 67fr. 30c., showing no change. _ _ Consols are now quoted 901 to 1, ex cliv., for money, and 911 to 1, ex div., for the account (Jan. 7). The official business report is as follows:-Three per Cent. Consols, for money, 901, 91, 901 ; ditto for account, 914, 4 ; Three per Cents. Reduced, 901, 91, 901, 91; New Three per Cents., 901, 91, 901; Bank Stock, 235, 237 ; India Stock, 221 ; ditto Five per Cent.

Foreign stocks, after opening ste►dily, have fallen, especially the speculative descriptions. Mexican Bonds have declined 4 per cent., Greek and Turkish Consolidds 4, and Spanish Passive 1. Some of the present quotations are annexed :- Turkish 1834 Loan, 881 to 894 ; ditto, 1858, 70 to 4 ; ditto, 1862, 70/ to 1 (being 1 per cent. higher than yesterday) ; the Consolidds, 464 to 1 ; Greek, 251 to 1 ; Mexican, 341 to 4 ; Spanish Pas sive, 331 to 1 ; and Brazilian scrip, 14 to 1 dia.

East London Bank, 2to prem. ; Discount Corporation, 41 to prem. ; and Floating Dock, 1 to n prem. The discount market yesterday was decidedly easier, and the rates showed a drooping tendency. In exceptional instances transactions took place I per cent. below the Bank minimum, but, as a rule, bills for which to 9 per cent, would have been demanded during the last few days, were yester day taken at 8. Six months paper was in demand at 8 per cent. The supply of money generally was large, and holders were apparently only restrained from lending more freely at the present high rates by a vague apprehension of a resumption of the adverse movement of bullion. The course of the Eastern exchanges excites chief anxiety at the moment. Inquiries having been made with regard to the amount of cotton bills afloat, it is satisfactory to learn that the total is believed to have been very materially diminished of late. About 51,0001. in bar gold was sent into the Bank yesterday, and only about 9,000 sovereigns were withdrawn for Alexandria. The former formed a portion of the 211,0001. by the City of London, from New York, and the residue of that amount is also expected to be retained here in the absence of demand for the Continent. Mr. Henry Weston, of the old and respectable banking firm of Weston and Young, of Southwark, has been appointed manager of the Southwark branch of the East London Bank. The Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway traffic return shows this week an increase of 3,5631 over last year ; the Manchester, Sheffield and Lincoln shire an increase of 1,044/. ; the Midland an in crease of 3,8531. ; and the North Eastern an in crease of 5,952/. The receipts of the Grand Trunk Railway of Canada for the week ending the 21st November were 20,44K11. sterling, being 1,2901. more than in the corresponding week of last year. A prospectus appears of the general Floating Dock Company, with a capital of 200,0001., of i which 120,0001 . sat first to be issued, in shares of 101. The object of the undertaking is the con struction of floating docks, principally in France. but likewise in this country, upon a principle invented by M. Courau. A commission of French naval engineers, appointed by the imperial govern ment, has reported very favourably of M. Courau's invention, which appears calculated to supply a want experienced in many French and English ports, viz.,—more adequate dock accommodation. Operations, in the first instance, will be commenced at the port of Bordeaux. With reference to the market for American secu rities Mr. E. F. Sattertbwaite reports as follows : Blom our last of this day week the market for American securities io London has become steadier, the recent news from New York hating much checked the dispoeition of sellers to offer stock, Phan has been a aoasiderable de mand for Atlantic and Great Western Boods, and the market is cleared of all offering at late quotations. The return of the Bank of England for the week ending Wednesday, Dec. 9, compared with that for the previous week, shows the following changes : Circulation issue Ciraul►tion active Public deposits 8,629,856 Increase 1,394,962 Other deposits Government securities in _ _ _ --- bsainideport7nent 10,712,330 Income 2,000 Otharmeu fitted. m banking department Coin and bullion in both 13,008,617 Demean 39,838 Seven day and other We 608,167 Demme 54,940 The Rest Notes ill reserve Total reserve (notes k ooia in Woking departmest). 7,463,377 Increase 789,727 This return is of a decidedly favourable character and will contribute materially to strengthen confi dence. The government deposits having expe rienced an unusually large increase, and no de crease having taken place per contra in the private deposits, there has been a very important increase iu the reserve. The addition would have been still larger but for the increase iu the private securities. With regard to this latter head, however, it would appear that the pressure upon the Bank for accom modation must have been lees severe than was generally supposed. As soother re-assuring feature it will be noticed that scarcely any decline has taken place in the metallic stock. 324,000 sovereigns having been taken from the Bank during the week for exportation, and only 33,0001. in bar gold basing been sent in, it is to be inferred that coin is flowing back freely from the internal circu lation, and this view is confirmed by the fact, that there is a decrease of 155,8151. in the issue depart ment, but an increase of 115,9571. in the betaking department. There were more inquiries for Cape of Good Hope and Victoria Government Debentures. JOINT STOCK BANKS. No. I 811.

CAPTURE OP AN ESCAPED DARTMOOR CONVICT. Late last night George Ball, who escaped with two others from Dartmoor prison on the Ist of April, 1860, was captured at Woolwich. At the time of his escape he had served between two and three years of a transportation of fifteen years, for • burglary committed at Lewes. The names of the two other convicts who escaped with him were John Robinson, undergoing 30 years' (two Mum) transportation, and Joseph Hampshire. undergoing 20 years transportation, both of whom were captured a short time after their escape. Ball, after escaping, made his way with his companions to Bridgwater, where they parted. Ball proceeded to Cardiff, and in • few days after sailed for America, where, until within the last three months be served as captain of • company of Southern guerillas, but was taken prisoner by the North and sent home. Immediately on his arrival in England he made his way to Woolwich, where he enlisted u a gunner in the Royal Artillery band, in which he has served for the last two mouths. Last night he became embroiled in a drunks. row and fell into the hands of the pollee. Whilst locked up at Shooters-hill station, Inspector Bell made the diesovery that he was au escaped Dartmoor convict, who was alluded to in the police information of April 26, 1860, he having " G. T." marked on his left are, and was labour. ing under the delusion that Prince Albert was his personal enemy. He is now 28 years of age, and six years ago broke out of Bedlam Hospital twice, on one occasion taking with him • lunatic! murderer. To-day (Friday) he was taken before the magistrate sitting at Woolwich, and was identified by the Dartmoor authorities, who were tele graphed to shortly after his capture.

Surrffriaui CLus Oar= BNow.—Yesterday the improved character of the weather bad its effect upon the cattle show, for if appearances may be taken ea • criterion, the number of visitor far exceeded those of the day pre cediag, which reached 35,000. There can be little doubt that the prosperity of the Smithfield Club is mainly indebted to the extraordinary meows which bee attended its shows within the last few year., but there must be something of which the public are not cognisant when it is stated that with its increased yearly prosperity there is • gradual dimi nution in the number. who attend the annual dinner at which the prizes are distributed, although the value of the awards bee been of let* years more than doubled. Neither of the 'Hunan of the 401. silver cops noel 301. prises was present to receive the acknowledgment of the merit of the animal' they exhibited In the cattle classes at the dinner held ea Wednesday evening. With respect to the business doe* at the show itself, the competitors, generally speaking, have reason to be more than witisfied, for we find upon in quiry of thaw connected with the offices of Messrs.
