The solicitors for the prosecution expressly disavowed any " points." in the matter, and at their reeneat Mr. Hall consented to reduce the amount of sureties originally named for bail from 3001. to two of NV. each, his worship remark ing at the time that the circumstance reflected great credit upon the prosecution, and showed that no vindictive feeling was entertained spinet the defendant. Notwithstanding this consideration for the latter, however, on the part of the Runes° embeasy, his own personal friends kept aloof. Among the documents found at the defendant's office was a long list of names 'timidly to the cause. some of them, at lemt, being men of substance, but sot one could be found to risk 100/. for the safe custody of the accused, or to save him from a week's imprisonment.

If it should be deemed espediest to offer other evideoos hereafter, ample notice would be given to the solicitors for the defendant. The Meemeassul of the Riimian government was in attend ance to be bound over in the usual recognissoces. the pre sent proosediap being t..ken entirely independent of the go i lish government, who might or might not interfere Mr. Lsirie, No., urged that the additional evidence, if there was any, should be produced at ODOII. That was the English was , of conducting a prosecutes. My Poland—lt is my impresniow that there will be so other *videos* omemary. Mr. Leiria thee applied for a reduction of the amount of bail.

LIVIBOAT SIRVICFA. ABERDOVEY, CARDIGAN BAY, MONDAY NICINT.—Mr. David Williams, bon. sec, of the Aberdovey branch of the Royal National Lifeboat In 'tauten, report* that, on Saturday, two large barques were making for the harbour, the foremost being towed by a strum tug. It was blowing hard at the time. Owing to there being a considerable fall of water oft the bar, and no qualified pilot on boanl the vessel in tow, she grounded on a aiud-hank, upon which the other barque at 000 e dropped her anchors. Most of the cargo of the stranded vessel wax thrown overboard to lighten her, but this noir' cowed her to drift farther on to the hanks. when she turned broadside on to the surf, and she is DON waterlopted. A portion of the crew reached the shore li is the ships own lifeboat. Their other boat was washed off the dams. The ruitaleiug six of the crew were saved by the Alfredo:mu lifeboat of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution.

Ou all sides preparations for the event which is looked forward to with so monk interest—the meeting of the British Association—are being made; and from the speed sad promptitude with which the work is being advanced, ►►ere can be little doubt th-t by the 26th lust, everything will be is realise e fee the reception of the distioguielted mynas. Once more the local general committee met on Saturday, hut so little now really remains to be done that the proceedings oo the occasion usumed more of a conversational than of a banner form. It was anooormed, however that in one or two instances a departure from the original pro. gramme had been rendered necessary, the principal change being that the second Wednesday, Untold of the first Friday of the globe. bog, Ana been set apart for the gun experiments of Sir William Armstrong at Whitley. There will also be found a new source of attraction is the balloon &scoot of Mr. Weigher, which, although not directly under the auspices of the association, will nevertheloas add something to the stores of information to be laid before that learned body. Hitherto the offers of hospitality on the part of private families have not quite come up to the expectations of the onanmittee, and this is a subject of regret ; but great as is likely to be the immigration of philosophic visitors, there will we doubt not he provided ample and ocenfortaide ac commodation for all when they are sctually in our midst. The ranks of the association matinee to he swelled by sew members and associates. —Newcastle Chronicle.

Greek, Mexican, and Spanish Passive Bonds have declined, but not to any important extent. The Turk ish loans of 1858 and 1862 are better.

Dent, Palmer, and Co. have announced the half-yearly dividend due the Ist Sept. on the Turkish Loan of 1&i& It appears from the brat advice. from New Granada that there is a question of the contraction of a small loan in Europe. The objects of this operation are described as chiefly twofold. One portion of the loan is to be devoted to opening up uew means of communication, by which an impulse would be given to the trade 14 the country, and an increase would be occasioned in the amount of the customs revenues, iu which the bondholders are interested. Auothur portion of the proceeds would, it is said, be applied to clearing oft existing arrears on the " ex all" bonds, and on the Deferred, and to providing a fund which would protect the bondholders iu future from delay in the payment of their divideuds arising from fluctuation iu the yield of the customs. As regards resources available as security for the proposed loan, it is understood that the government—apart from the customs, on which the bondholders have a first charge of 25 per cent., and which are steadily iucreasing—possesses also considerable revenues derived from extensive salt mines. It has likewise a reversionary interest in a property which is be coming daily of more value—we mean the Panama Railway, the lease of which falls in in a few years, when the line will become the property of the State. It is only justice to President 510squera to place on record the fact that since his accession to power, remittances to the extent of uearly 100,0001. have been made to the Euglisli bondholders. A good effect has beeu prodnued amongst mer chants engaged in trade with Mexico, by the an nouncement that the Emperor Napoleon has promptly acquiesced in the represeutations ad- Iliebatli to him, and has rescinded the proliibitnie to the exportation of specie from Mexico. Thu willingness of the Emperor to redrew; the grievance complained of in this instance induces a hope on the part of the holders of Mexican Bonds, that a full equivalent will be given to them for the portion of the customs duties which has beau relinquished by order of the French authorities. Only a trifling amount of gold (4,0001.) was taken to the Bank yesterday. The Africa, from Boston, has brought only 1,5001. in specie. Application has been made to the Stock Exchange committee to appoint a settling day iu the shares of the Commercial Navigation Company of India. The whole of the 4th Wane of Sciude Railway shares, amouuting to 17,500 of 204 each, have been allotted, and the sow of 1811,000/. has been paid on account of them to the Secretary of State fur India in Council. Payments in anticipation of calls will be received up to the 28th Mat. The East Indian Railway Company have notified that the H Extension shares eau now be paid iu full. _ _ A memorandum from the Great Western Railway Company of Canada intimates that "the directors of thin company are informed by their financial agent in Canada that the loss on through traffic collected and converted, ascertained up to August 1, 1863, amounted to the sum of 274,649.32 dole. (56,4341. 15.. 10.1.), and there remained a further sum of American funds for ...emersion at that date of 11,647.36 dole.
