Soon after the learned judge hail taken his seat, a gen. Conan named King asked hia lordship w h e ther be bed wale to a decision in the came of Colonel Waugh, in which a 3 application was nude yesterday to discharge him ont of rottjj of the Sheriff of Middleaex, as to a capiaa to hold to Mil for 50,0C'Ji. by the official manager of the London and Eratern Banking Company. Mr. Justice Keating asked Mr. King whether both parties were in attendance, as he wished to state to the learned ounsel who appeareu in the case his reasons for the jodg inent he bad formed. _ . Mr. King said he appeared on the part of Colonel Waugh, and was not aware that the other side intended further to appear in the matter. It merely steed over for his lord. ship's decision on the questions raised. His lordship then add he had carefully considered the matter with the statute and the authentic% cited, and he could only say that he had been strengthened in the imprea lion made on him yesterday, that this was not a case in which he ought to interfere. The application to release from the anise at the suit of the banking company was in effect though not in form an appeal from Mr. Justice Blackburn, who hail granted the espies on which the defendant hail been arrested. He was clearly of opinion that the claim which had been entered on the part of the official manager on the proceedings in bank ruptcy was inch a bar as was contemplated by the act of par liament, and therefore was not one on which the defendant could be discharged out of custody. He had arrived at that cooclusion after considering the cues quoted on both sides with the particular sections of the act, and as that was the and also considering the application as an appeal from yr. Justice Blackburn, the summons would follow the usual me r l e, and be dismissed with costs. His lordship endorsed the summons as dismissed with mat By this decision Colonel Waugh most either find bail es directed by Mr. Commies:emir llolroyd, not for his protec t," but for his release, or remain in custody until the N ropletion of his case, and his discharge by operation of COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.

(THIS DAY.) The half-yearly meeting of the shareholders was held at noon, at the London Tavern; Mr. J. N. Dalincm. in the chair. The report said :—" The gross revenue from all sources, with the balance of 997/. 105 Ild. from the previous ac count, is 61,5451. 145 DA, and the expenditure 21,394!. N. 7d., leaving • net profit of 40,1511. 14s. 3d., and after payment of interest on debentures, amounting to 8,4691. 6s. 10d., there is a Wawa of 31,6821. 7s. sd. for dividend. Out of this balance the directors Cr, enabled to provide for dividend on the 4j per cent. preference capital, namely, 2,7711. 2s. 11d. on 12.1,1621. stock, and 2,70t1. 13s. 6d. on 19,522 shares, and to recommend the payment of a dividend upon 1,459,0601. ordinary stock at the rate of 3/. IN. per cent. per annum, which will amount to 25,5331. 7s. lid., and leave 6,6691. 3a. 6d. to be carried forward. By comparison of the revenue account with that for the corresponding six months of 1862, there is an Nereus of 7,077!. in the balance available for dividend. The dividend now recommended on the ordinary stock is consequently at the rate of 10s. per cent. per annum more than at this period of last ear, and is upon a larger amount of espial. The directors have to ask the sanction of the meeting to raise by debentures the sum of 100,000/., authorised by the Act 23 and 24 Victoria. The necessity for this arises in the following manner :—ln the estimate given in the report of August, 1860, of the liabilities and works to be provided for out of the share capital of 300,0001., at that time pro posed to be created, the following , were amounts appro priated, via, to Midland Company • station, 25,0001. • to Victoria Dock station, warehouses, and sidings, 58,Z0/. ; and to repayment of loan from bankers, 14395/. The expenditure for the Midland station has been in.:reseed by 32,8771., owing to additional accommodation having been required ; and that for the Victoria Dock station, k.c., by 12,6091., for the same reason. A further sum of 16,9671. was required to pay off the bankers, and 17.460!. has been expended upon additional works. These sums amount to 80,913/., the larger portion of which carries interest at 6 per cent, and as it is intended to construct additional coal sidings, the cost of which will also bear interest, the directors propose to take • vote for the whole sum of 100.600/. The project for connecting this line with the railways south of the Thames by means of the Thames Tunnel was withdrawn from parliament in the past session, but the directors have reason to believe that an improved scheme for the same purpose will be introduced in the seat session. The atten tion of the directors has been given to the propriety of providing railway communication to the numerous and extensive factories on the Isle of Dogs, which is rapidly becoming a place of importance, both in respect of trade r dpulation. The result of their inquiries as to probable traffics has satisfied the directors that there would be ample, both in passengers and goods, to render the line in itself remunerative, and that a conside rable amount of new traffic would, by is means, be brought upon the main line. The directors are of opinion that such a line should be promoted by this company, and as it is de sirable for economy's sake that it should be made before the ground is covered with buildings, they have caused a pre liminary survey to be made, and are advised that the line can be executed at a cost of about 100,009/. ; they therefore recommend that an act to authorise its construction should be applied for in the next session of parliament." The CHAIRMAN, in moving is adoption, observed that the operations of the railway during the last six months, whether as regarded the traffic, the expenses, or the result, were very satisfactory. The line was an exceptional one. It did not, like many others, want rest ; on the con trary, it needed continual activity arid development. Both the passengtr and goods traffic now exhibited • gradual increase. The company's system had not been one of opposition, but one of courting other lines in their vicinity. Whatever bad been done was done with the consent and concurrence of other companies which had discovered the value of their terminus and had become contributories to the stream of traffic. The company might now look forward to an increased goods traffic, and to a considerable accession of traffic from the London Docks. A new line on the hale td Dogs, connecting it with the north, would probably prove very valuable. Not more than a twelvemonth would be re quired to construct it ; it was brief and comparatively inex pensive, and teemed with traffic. Captain MANGUM seconded the resolution. _ _ After some discussion on points of detail connected with the expenditure, the report was adopted and a dividend at the rate of 3i per cent. per annum declared. BANK OF Eayrr.--(Tuis DAY.)—Au extraor dinary general meeting of the proprietors was held at 2 o'clock this afternoon, at the London Tavern ; Mr. Tite, M.P., in the chair. It appeared from the directors' report that the net profits of the half-year ending the 30th June amounted to 13,8951., including the last year's balance of 4,66.2. Out of this amount the directors recommended& dividend at the rate of 7 per cent. per annum for the half year, leaving 5,1474 to be carried forward to the next account. The report wu adopted, and a dividend in accordance therewith declared. THE METROPOLITAN RAILWAY TRAFFIC. —The working of the Metropolitan hoe by the Great Western Railway Company having ceased yesterday evening, the traffic was worked this morning by the Great Northern Company on the narrow gauge rails. Whether owing to the want of adequate rolling stock or to some imperfection in the arrangements, great inconvenience to the public was occasioned by delays in the trains. At King's cross station such was the state of things that the clerks declined at one period to take money from intending passengers ; and refused to return money to persons who bad paid their fares and found themselves unable to proceed to their destination with sufficient speed. The train learmg Bishop's.rosd station at 9.30 was &awn by an old engine, which, it is alleged, was out of order, and no sooner bad the train left the station than the engine ran off the line, causing considerable alarm to the passengers, none of whom, however, were hurt. Assistance was procured, and in a short time the engine was lifted on to the rails. A temporary stoppage of the traffic occurred. ----- DEATH OF MR. GILBART, F.R.S.—We have to announce the death of Mr. J. W. Gilbert, F.A.S., who held a high positiot. in the city of London es a financier. In earl 7 life Mr. Gilbert was desirous of obtaining employ ment in the civil service; but, notwithstanding promises which were held out to him, he failed in that object. He became a clerk in a banking.bouse, end is 1827 published his " Practical Treatise on Banking." Shortly after tide he was appointed manager of a branch of the Provincial Bank of Ireland, but retired from that post to take the general managerehip of the London and Westminster Bank, the responsible duties of which be discharged with much ability until 1859. While managing this bank a handsome service of plate was presented to Mr. Gilbert by gentlemen interested in banking business in recognition of the services he had rendered to th., principle of joint stock banking; end on his retirement from the office of general manager, he was elected a director of the company. Mr. Gilbert was the author of many works. amongst which may be mentioned, "The History end Principles of Banking." "A History of Bank ing in Ireland," " The Logic of Banking," " Benking and the Currency." "History of Banking it America," "logic for the Million." He was • fellow of the Royal Society. and in the International Saatiatical Congress held in July, 1899, he was appointed one of the committee of the section of Commercial Statistics. and a paper read by him on " The Statistics of English Banks" on that occasion was printed in the "Transactions" of the congress. Mr. Gilbert was siztvaiine years of age.

The demand for money seems to have somewhat increased. A brisk business waa done to-day at the Bank of England, while in the general market there were not many tratmacti•ms below 34 per cent. It is presumed that the increased movement is partly in connexion with harvest requirements, which are now considerable. In fact, just at present the harvest constitutes a drain upon the money market, . but this will cease at nu unusually early period. The circumstance that, according to all present ap pearauces, the extraordinarily heavy crops will begot iu in spleudid condition, is of nosagaill importance, as the grain will be immediately marketable either at home or abroad.

SMITHFIELD HAY MARICET.—(THIS DAY.) Messrs. Harvey and Eutou report a large supply. Tad* dull at last day's priors. THE WEATHER AND THE ARVEST.—The weather has been magnificent, aid the alight rain that fell in the middle of the week was oo drawback ; on the contrary it was most acceptable. Bright sons and fresh breezes form the staple of the weather, with enough of lamp and fog a the evenings and mornings to slightly revive vegetation. Harvest work has been going on rapidly in every quarter, and not only has • very large breadth of corn been cut, but no little has also, within the last few days, been housed— need we add, in splendid condition. Not an hour has been lost, in fact, shortness of hands lies been the only thing that has prevented even more progress being made. We never remember a finer harvest time, and if the present weather continue but one week longer, • very large portion of the grain crops will have been garnered under the most favourable circumstances possible to coot-sive or desire. Reports speak well of the probable yield, as wall so of the quality, of wheat, este, and barley. Of peas and beaus the account. ore somewhat varied, though on the whole very satisfactory. Potatoes are almost everywhere turning out well, and strong hopes are entertained that the disease will this year prove to he extremely circumscribed in its effecte. The accounts from the hop districts on the whole come better. The improvement, like the crop itself. is partial ; everyone speaks of the growth as uneven and "patchy," but we are disposed to think that the last week has seen more than • little progress, and that moderate crops will be gathered in grounds which • fortnight ago gave little prospect of anything bat severe failure. The Worcester accounts are more favourable, and the planter, write cheerfully—happy in the prospect of making up for last year's failure.—Sirsar Advertiser. 01 , THE ATMOSPHERE.—The question of the existence or non existence of • vacuum dates from the earliest ages of civilisation. De cartes endavoured to solve the difficulty by his vodkas'. a theory according to which there is no empty space, and the universe is made to spin rotted tort Lin centres of attraction, forming more or less complex systems. After him came Newton, who overthrow his system by the theory of noiversal attraction, which, of nesasity, admits the existence of an immense vacuum which natural philosophers have subsequemly tilled up with an imaginary fluid they call ether, to which they gratuitously and without a particle of evidence in their favour, ►ttribute the genera tion of light. A third hypothesis has now been started by M. Hafer. and not, we believe, without some chance of success. The earth, and all the other h ly bodies, are each cnvtl ipml in an atmosphere, the limits of which have not yet leen determined. We live in our eitrao sphere as fish live in the sea ; we are the austacea of • vast ocean of air, which we know to be traversed by cur rents in different directions. This ocean is denser at the surface of the earth than it is at the top • and just as we sea the watery oceans of our globe enveloped in another ocean of much inferior density, so nothing prevents our supprisiog the Later ocean also to be enveloped by another still lighter iine, nod this again by another and so on, uutil all space is tilled by natter. In this manner all tho planets and satellites, which are mere elementary particles of our universe Dtself a mere nebula. perhaps. in a much vaster world than we have any idea of )are in communication with each other. It is easy toperceive that this theory bears the strongest resemblance tothat of the vortices, with Obi .m -portaut difference chile Descartes sup e oses the maxi mum density t., ',lvt at the extreme bruit of each system, M. Hafer, on the contrary, places it in the centre, a amine vition more iu accordance with what we know about matter than the contrary one. • • CAPTV Itg OF BUM 'IC ADE RtiNNE1114.••••Fl0111 advises received in Liverpool by the Persia we learn that the fe deral cruisers were making sad work of the steamers and sailing vessels engaged in running the blockade.
