*parting intelligence. THN LATE LIVERPOOL CUP AND THE SHILEWBBUAY WEIR. TO not =rum O nes =Passe. like,—Treasere Trove and Salamander, to emus imam the year with, gave the public a staggerer it took them some lime to mover fTOIIII ; but theme blow ol Friday lask was& regular map de pram, s it did, et the end of an unpropitious season. Having, D ha e l y to La/ the Lard Lyon mosey for the Two T homann, Bt.Leger very dearly, sad miming many bindings wieners besides those shomemeatiosed—for John Davis at Hans esepton, Whalebone at Bath, RIM at Goodwood, enth uses at Doncsater, and Duke of York and Lecturer at New market recently, carried little or no " public money"--it has been a dreadfully bad year for them ; and what are termed the " gentlessea" — if we ma suppose there are any suchcharacters on the turf, after Commissioner Goulburn's definition of a " blackleg," that worthy wonting to apply the term to all bettors, even unto the Prince ofW I presume—have won whatever money the Ring has parted with. The recent Liverpool Cup afforded the greatest sur prise of the whole year, only the owners of Me fun and second having any confidence , in them until it came out the lucky Kenyon was to pilot Beeswing, rice H. Clark, who rode her bead o ff at Lincoln , or she would have had as difficulty in beating Sundeelab. But it was fortunate tturned out as they did there, for an 81 b pen alt y i ll undoubtedly have stopped the filly on Friday last, many having it that Mousey would have beaten her as it was if he had not ion ground at the last turn, or any of his old pilots had been at the helm, Helen performed worse than ever, she and Acta& proving by their exhibitions what a bad lot there must have been le the Oesarewitch and Cambridgeshire this year ; but Chepstow ran the greatest impostor in the race, and as there was no excuse for him this time, the public will do well not to think of making their fortunes some day in that quarter. He ran so badly as to cause his owner's poll to be severely criticised spin, especially after his eleventh hour scratching of Caithness, who would have run far letter than Chepstow did, if he had not won. However, the Miss Harriette party are just as muoh to blame, for days she prior was palpably in the milk cart during the last tea her withdrawal, and Friday's display meld hardly have been soothing to her victims, as she must have out up better than he did. Excuses OM be made for The Special, on account of his running en, and be took Nu with him, I believe ; but he is not a first clam colt by any means, though he will prove useful enough in handicaps, if only to transfer the public into when the Mail Train is worn out.. There were several of the eighteen starters running solely with se eye I. the future, no doubt ; still the field was an excellent one, and the last great handicap was undoubtedly one of the best of the season, if not the best. Two handicap meetings have• yet to be held before the racing year is brought to • close, and that at Shrewsbury will be a busy one for the professional bettors, who have 4thirty-seven events placed before them already, sad may reasonably—or unreasonably—expect ten or • dozen more. Those whop for " good things" must be very careful how they deal with the stakes already ripe for discussion, several tempting baits being in them, and especially the Carnival Nursery. The first that attracts the eye herein is Bismarck, Sat 21b, who, to be worth the 1,000 guineas Captain Hawkeelee gave for him the other day, ought to give the illb to t oresight, once his stable pompanion, and one of three the clever Lord Westmorland Mu in. He might not be capable of giving 201 b to Python, if this colt can stay ; and T. Dawson may alto bring out tee too good for Joseph, in Knight Errant, fist 91b, or (Untie Gale, feet 81b. Beyond expressing a fancy for Histuian over the five furlongs end Violent over the "even, I can do nothing with the Cleveland Plate or Stewards' Cup, in both of which Lord Westmorland end Custard Castle should perplex the talent, and their moult' will best betray what Volunteer haste fear in Tues day's battle-field. The Shrewsbury Cup, one mile and three-quarters, has no fewer than ten of the Liverpool Cop performers engaged in it ; but as the first and second therein, Beeewing and Moulsey, have 191 b and 71b res pectively more weight to carry, their pretensions can scarcely be formidable, especially as the distance is a quarter of • mile further, and I should not be at all sur prised at the Special, though he only meets Moulsey on Mb better terms, turning the tables on both, that is, of sauna, supposing he is more worthy to represent W. Day's stable at 7st 9lb than Scarborough at Tat 101 b, or Cranford at fist 61b. It is not a very fine point at 51b be tween the Special and Westwick, the latter having decidedly the beat of it, through the (.;omens and Rama running ; and if Mr. Bowes's colt does not win, it may be because one of the old ones at first fancied for Liverpool (Brick, perhaps) runs better than it did last Friday—or Marco Spada, 3 yrs, eat 71b, can gallop and stay. Suppos ing 45 sows. are worth Captain Machell's picking up, his Knight of the Garter will walk over for the Salopian Stakes, the on weight for age item in too programme let besides Thurs day's Newport Gold Cup. 'Phis latter is • sine-furlong race, with some of the fastest horses in train ing engaged, although Viridis at Fist 101 b has only to put in an appearance to frighten a great many. Moulsey having to give her 3st 71b (but be may " cut in " nevertheless), Ostreger, Set 41b, and Caithness, Ist 101 b. Wednesday's and Thursday's handicaps may be materially altered by what takes place on Monday and Tuesday, with the exception of the two hurdle races ; and all I know con cerning these is that the Clown, if he can jump, is " best in." At the same time, I may observe that it will require something pretty good to turn up to jeopardise the Duke of Hamilton's chance in the Wynnstay Welter, with the Beadle handicapped on a level with Charming Woman, who is of as good a calibre as any of the other medium weights ; and Narino is too good at half a mile ever to be done with for the Caldecot Nursery. Singularly, there is not one steeplechase coming off at Shrewsbury, the only cross-country doings of the week taking place at E ding, ethich meeting will have to turn out much " squarer" than Hendon was to be any credit to the sport, and it is to be hoped there will be none of the " roping" division at work. —I am, he., METEOR.

CRWSWELL. The arguments in this appeal from Vice-Chancellor Bindersley were continued to-day, but had not concluded when the court rose. (Before the Master of the Rolls.) tw BE THE OENERAL LSTATES COMPANY. Several petitions were presented in this matter, and among them one by the company, praying for compulsory winding-up orders. It appeared that an order had been made for a voluntary winding up, which was now in the course of being worked out in chambers. Mr. Selwyn, Q.C., Mr. Baggallay, Q.C., Mr. Roxburgh, Mr. Dram, Mr. Higgins, Mr. Edmond James, and Mr. Lawson appeared for the various parties. Lord Romilly made an order on the company's petition to continue the voluntary winding up in chambers. IN RE OtiLLWIN IRON AND COAL COMPANY. Mr. Jessel, Q.C., appeared in this matter, in which a petition was presented praying for a compulsory winding up order. Negotiations had been entered into for a sale of the business of this company to another one. Mr. Lindley appeared for the Oullwyn Company. Lord Romillymade an order for the compulsory winding up of the company, with a direction to the chief clerk to inquire whether the contract for the sale of the loudness was beneficial to this company or not. IN RE THE WORTHING LAUNDRY LAND AND BUILDING robberies in the crowd during the Lord Mayor's show, and they were all committed for different periods of imprison ment. GUILDHALL. Julius Aleaatsder ifoicinsea,;ho has been remandedfrom this court from tame **tiros in order to give the Pruasion au thorities an opportunity of prosecuting the prisoner for the alleged robbery on the Mayor of Riga during his sojourn in Hanover, was placed at the bar before Alderman Beesley, charged with being at the !Salisbury Hotel with intent to commit • felony. A letter had been received from Hanover detailing the cirentnataneee of the robbery, but it appeared that the Prussian consul was not inclined to prosecute. Alderman Seeley said he bad no doubt the prisoner was in the hotel intending to commit • robbery, since there were implements in Ms possession calculated to effect that object. He was sentenced to three months' imprisonment, with hard labour. Joseph Thomas Hand, formerly clerk to Messrs. F. and A. Morrison, was charged with embezzling the sum of 2001. on the 10th August, 1864. He bad been sent on that day by his employer to pay a cheque into the bank, amounting to 5041. lls. 6d., but prisoner, instead of doing so, paid in on the 20th August a cheque for 3041. lls. 6d., and when he got the bankers' pus book into his possession he altered the three into five. Thus the fraud escaped detection until other cases caused an investigation to be made. Remanded for a week. Frederick Hales, a ragged boy, was charged, under the Amended Industrial Schools Act, with wandering abroad without having any visible means of subsistence, which gives the magistrate power to commit to one of the schools for a term of years. A policeman saw the prisoner in the Broadway. He said he had no home or parents ; he slept in carts and doorways, end bad been tempted by boys to sleep under the arches in Victoria-street, but refused, as be wished not to get into trouble. He took him to the workhouse for the night, and in the morning fetched him ; he was in a deplorable condition. In answer to inquiries from the magistrate, the poor boy said he came from Faringdon, Berks. His father had worked for Mr. Pinnegar, a farmer there, and died two years ago. He came to London six months ago, and had subsisted by begging and doing little errands for milkmen. Mr. Humphrys said the boy had been continually begging bread outside the bakers' shops in the Broadway. Mr. Selfe said he could rot commit the boy to Feltham, as it was exclusively restricted to boys who had been con victed of crimes. There were several industrial schools, but be could not compel them to take him in. He did not wish the boy to be with young thieves who might contami nate him, and thought he had better be remanded for • week to the workhouse. Remanded accordingly. 0164 ate/ Military. CHATHAM, Nov. 11. It is understood that Dome important changes are intended to be carried out at this dockyard, by the present Admiralty, in connexion with the department of work, MAWS. Robinson and Beocombe, valuers and in spectors of dockyard work, conneoted with the Controller of the Navy's department, having been occupied for shout a fortnight in making some investigations at this establish ment, previotudy to the contemplated alterations being made. The depot of the second battalion of the 2nd Queen's Royals left this ggaammssaann yesterday, and embarked on board the Lady Wodehouse steamer, en route to Dublin and Birr, there to await the arrival of the head-quarters and servioe companies, from Bermuda. The depot num bered 12 non-commissioned officers and men, 2 drummers, 120 men, and 20 women and children, with the following odious : Captain J. M. G. Magill, Lieutenant C. de St. Croix, and Ensign G. D. Harmer. The depot of the 82nd Regiment, from Colchester, arrived at the garrison yester day, and relieved the depot despatched to Ireland. COMPANY. Mr. Francis Webb appeared in support of a petition in this matter, praying for the usual winding-up order. Lord Romilly made the order as prayed. IN RE THE INNS OP COURT HOTEL COMPANY (LIMITED). Mr. Jesse', Q.C., appeared in support of a petition in this matter, praying for a compulsory winding-up order. Mr. Row:.liffe, for some respondents, stated that Vice- Chancellor Wood hod that morning made an order on a petition presented to him in the same matter, and asked that this petition might be transferred to the other branch of the court. Mr. Cottrell appeared for other parties. Lord Romilly said he was anxious that the Lord Chan cellor should make a general order of court, that in all eases where a petition for the winding up of a company had once been presented to the court, all other petitions for the same object should be presented in the same branch of the court. His lordship directed an application in this in stance to be made to the Lord Chancellor for leave to transfer this matter to the court of Vice-Chancellor Wood, and his lordship also wished it to be stated to the Vice- Chancellor, that the petition was to be dealt with by him in exactly the same way (with respect to its priority over other petitions having the same object in view) as it would have been treated had his lordship entertained it. IN SC THE MERCHANT s' COMPANT. _ . Mr. Selwyn, Q.C., Mr. Southgate, Q.C., Mr. Jessel, Q.C., Mr. Roxburgh, Mr. Waller, Mr. Kekewich, Mr. Brookibank, and Mr. Bond Coxe appeared for several parties in this matter ; in which three petitions had been presented, praying for winding•up orders. After some discussion, Lord Romilly ordered the petitions to stand over till Monday next (this day.) (Before Vice-Chancellor Sir J. Stuart.) RE WILTsHIRE IRON COMPANY. A petition by an alleged creditor to wind up this com pany under the direction of the court was ordered to stand over until the next petition day, after having occupied the court some time. Mr. Greene and Mr. Brooksbank supported the petition ; Mr. Higgins was for a judgment creditor ; and Mr. Malins and Mr. Karalake were for the company. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCII—Nov. 10. Sittings in Banco.—(Before Justices Shen and Lush. WRAF AND ANOTHER (APPELLANTS) r. WPST (RPRPONDENT.. This was an appeal against two justices of Lincolnshire. The respondent, Henry Wea, was summoned before them in petty sessions at Winterton, charged with that he, being an apprentice, had absconded from his work, and claimed to void the indenture. The reapordent, at the time he apprenticed himself to the appellants, represented that he was over age, and they entered into an agreement whereby he apprenticed himself for seven years to the appellants at a salary of 12s. per week. He continued to work under the indenture for nearly three years, when he refused any longer to do so, alleging that he was under age when he entered into the contract. The magistrates dismissed the summons, and against their decision the masters ap pealed. Mr. Morgan Lloyd submitted that the contract of apprenticeship, even if the respondent was under age at the time he entered into it, was binding, because it was for his own benefit. And secondly, tbat if voidable, the respondent having continued to work under the contract for nearly two years after he bad attained the age of 21, and receiving wages under it, had precluded himself fr .m now determin ing the contract. It should have been within a reasonable time after he came of age. Mr. ',ewers appeared for the respondent, and argued contra. The Lord Chief Justice said this was a contract entered into for the infant's benefit. It was, however, competent for the respondent to have determined the contract within a reasonable time after he came of age. Instead of doing so he had affirmed it by working under it for more than 18 months, and receiving his wages. It could not be said that he had repudiated it within a reasonable time after he came of age. Judgment accordingly. COURT OF EXCHEQUER.—Nov. 10. Sittings in Banco.—(Before Mr. Baron Channell.) The sitting of the court this morning was merely pro forma, the other barons being engaged in the Exchequer Chamber in the hearing of crown cases reserved. Mr. Baron Channel', on entering the court, said that under these circumstances he would only hear urgent motions, or motions of course, and no such motions being ready to be made, the learned baron at once adjourned the court. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. .Tohn Flamm.n , f, 18, and Joh n rnsivwth, about 16, were indicted for stealing several articles of wearing apparel, jewellery, &c. On October 9 they went to the house of a lady who kept a seminary at 17, Hart-street, Bloomsbury, and one asked for the lady, and while the servant went upstairs to tell her, one of the prisoners must have run into the parlour and v:lrried off a box with jewellery and clothing. When the prosectitrix came down she found Hammond in the passage, and he said he had been sent by a lady to ask the terms of young ladies coming to school, and he was asked to call again. When her mistress came down the servant noticed that Hammond was dressed differently from what he was when she first saw him, and when he was gone it was found that he must have had two or three coats on. The other prisoner was at the door with Hammond, and nu doubt took the property from the parlour. Fourteen convictions were proved against Hammond, and sixteen against Cusworth, two in each case being penal servitude and reformatories. Sentence, seven years penal aervitu,le each. and on re ceiving it they saucily laughed, and called out "Oh, we can do it." THE POLICE COURTS. MANSION-HOVSE. William Browning, who described himself as a caster monger, but who was recognised as an associate of thieves, was charged with a daring robbery. The complainant was Mr. John Ashton, a farmer, stay ing at present at t he Farmers' Hotel, Salisbury-square, and it appeared that on Friday afternoon he happened to be caugh•. in the crowd who were following the Lord ! Mayor's procession, and whilehe was standing at the corner of Queen-street, he was hustled and robbed of his watch, which was worth 71. His great coat was buttoned at the , time, but the thieves contrived to unbutton it and break the watch from the guard. The prisoner was one of the party, and wa■ standing close to the prosecutor, but the watch was not found, and it was no doubt passed away to some of the prisoner's companions. When he was searched 2/. 4s. in gold and silver were found in the possession of the prisoner, which there was every reason to believe was the result of the afternoon's depredations. The prisoner, when called upon for his defence, declared that all he did was to endeavour to assist the police. (A laugh.) Sir R. Carden said that was a very likely story. He then ordered the prisoner to be remanded, that some in quiries might he made about him. The prisoner begged the alderman to permit the money that was found upon him to be given to his wife. He as ' mired him that he had worked " werry hard " for it. (A laurih.) Sir R. Carden said be believed be bad got it very easily, but in all probability he would have to work bard for it before the affair was concluded. The prisoner was then remanded. A peat many prisoners were charged with committing LAMBETH. Mr. Harding, the owner of several houses in Park-row, East-lane, Lockafielde, let out in single rooms, was sum moned for neglecting the property so that it has been not only a serious nuisance, but most injurious to the health of the inhabitants of the neighbourhood. Mr. Bell, the inspector of nuisances, and Dr. Iliff, the medical officer of health for the parish of Newington, said the drainage was defective, the houses themselves in a state of neglect and dilapidation, and the place was a perfect fever den. The defendant said the state of things described was much owing to the negligence of the tenants themselves. Mr. Norton remarked that whatever the cause they should not be tolerated any longer, and made a peremptory order for their entire reparation in seven days. SOUTHWARK. David Bliss, gas engineer and ironmonger, 23, New-cut, Lambeth, was summoned for unlawfully selling an article known as an equilibrium ball valve, upon which was the trade mark " Lambeth's patent," being an imitation of the genuine trade mark of Lambert's patent, with intent to defraud. _ . . . Mr. Thomas Lambert, the original inventor and manu facturer of the equilibrium ball valve, said the patent ex pired three years since, but the words "Lambert's patent" had been continued 1111 a trade mark. The defen dant sold a spurious article in imitation of witness's ball valve, but of an inferior metal and at a lower price. The words "Lambeth's patent" were stamped upon these salves in a manner to imitate pre cisely the trade mark of the applicant, and thereby to deceive the public and lead them to believe they were purchasing "Lambert's patent."—After examining the marks, Mr. Burcham expressed an opinion that the marks on the defendant's goods were an imitation of the complainant's trade mark, but as this was the first case under the act be should only fine the defendant 205., and costs, amounting to IL 3s. A poor worusn attended before Mr. Bureham, with a lad named Jones, to ask his advice and assistance in the follow ing case. The mother of the lad died from cholera a week ago, his father had died previously, leaving his widow in very distressed circumstances. The death of the mother took place in applicant's house, and she had taken charge of the boy, now thirteen years of age ; but as she had a large family she was unable to maintain him her self. She hoped that something might be done for him by means of the fund which had been raised for the benefit of the relations of those who died from cholera, but she was told at the Mansion-house that the two funds mentioned were closed, and that nothing could be given for the benefit of the boy. Mr. Iturcham said he was afraid under these circum stances he could not assist the applicant. He then ordered her a sovereign out of the poor-box for the present necessi ties of the boy. RUMOURED LEGAL CHANGES. The Sunday Gazette says :—" We believe we are correct in stating that an intimation has been conveyed to the Chief Justice of the Queen's Bench that it is the intention of the govern ment to propose at the meeting of parliament the creation of three new judges—one being allotted to each court. It is also proposed to re-arrange the circuits, and the judges have been consulted as to the most convenient redistribu tion of counties to the different circuits. We believe tfiey will recommend that Lancashire should be created into a separate circuit. York in the northern counties will form the ' Northern Circuit.' The Midland Circuit will be re mitted to its ancient limit, receiving in addition Birming ham, at which town for the future an assize is to be held." The same journal has Caine reason to anticipate that another professional prize will soon be at the disposal of the govenment in the shape of a Vice-Chancellorship, Sir John Stuart being likely to retire. Our contemporary also believes there is but little doubt that the solicitor-geuerd ship will be at the disposal of Mr. Russell Gurney. The Obsrror says it is understood that the vacancy which is about to occur in the Court of Common Pleas, owing to the retirement of Lorri Chief Justice Erle,islikely tobe filled up by the present Lord Chancellor; and added that it is said to be settled that Lord Chief .Justice Erle will be called up to the House of Lords by the title of Baron Branishot, which is the name of his place of residence, near Liphook, Hamp shire. The Right Hon. Sir Richard gindersley and Lord Justice Sir Hugh Cairns were on Saturday morning sworn in as members of the Privy Council. A CLERGYMAN SUMMONING MIS WIFE FOR AN ASSAULT.—At the Shire-hall, Nottingham, on Saturday last, Mrs. Catharine Jenoure was charged with Laving Assaulted and used threatening language to her husband, the Rev. Henry Courtenay Jenoure, rector of Burton Joyce, near Nottingham, on the sth inst. Complaisant stated that on the day in queation he had some words with his wife. They were in the kitchen, and she took up the poker, and attempted to strike him with it. He succeeded in wrenching it from her, and she then got a large knife, which she brandished over his bead, and threatened to murder him. Defendant (interrupting)—l have had good reason to murder you for a long time. You took good care that I could not do you harm when you tied my hands, and locked me up in all the closets of the house. Turning to her husband, she said—Have you ever beaten me with sticks and locked me up! Complainant—l have beaten you on several occasions with a small stick, but it was only when you were very vio lent, and destroyed property. A woman named Moorecorroborated complainant's evidence as to the assault. In reply to the bench defendant said she was guilty. Her husband had brutally ill-used her on several occasions and had poisoned the minds of all her friends against her, except her brother's. He never allowed her any money ; she could never keep a servant, as he was constantly going into their bedrooms, and he ought to be exposed. Mr. Jenoure denied the latter accusation, and said be was driven to the curt by necessity, his wife was so violent. The magistrates ordered her to enter into her own recogni zance in 501. and find two sureties in 25/. each to keep the peace for twelve months. The sureties not being forthcoming she was ordered to be taken to the county gaol. On being removed she said she would go with the officer, but she would never again go with that villain, pointing to her husband. COMMITTAL OF THE EX-CHAMPION OF ENGLAND. —On Saturday William Thompson, alias Bendico (the ex champion of England), was brought before the Nottingham bench of magistrates charged with using threatening lac guage to Mrs Moore, landlady of the Three Crowns, Parliament-street. This once rioted pugilist presented a most pitiable appearance, having a black eye, and being scarcely able to articulate. Mn.s Moore said the defendant came to her house on Thursday and knocked a man down, and when be was getting up the prisoner threw him into the fireplace. Witness remonstrated with him, and he then used very horrible language, unfit to be repeated. He continued in this strain about 20 minutes, and then went away. The prisoner said he was very sorry, and begged pardon, adding " I am guilty." The bench ordered him to find the usual sureties, which not being forth coming, he was locked up. DESTRUCTIVE FIRE IN EXETER. EXETER, SranAT.—One of the most disastrous and extensive fires in this city for some time past occurred last night, when the saw-mills of Messrs. Maass and Son, builders, were completely razed to the ground. The building was a new one, two storeys high, an. I situated in Coombe-street, the very heart of the city, being surrounded by houses, two of which were also destroyed. The fire caused the utmost excitement and alarm, as the mills were well stocked with timber and other inflammable materials. The whole city was brilliantly illuminated by the flames, which continued for fully three hours. The total loss is estimated at 5,0001., part of which is covered by insurances. The workmen of Messrs. Mamas are great sufferers, having lost their tools. Messrs. Mow have at present the contract in hand for building the Wonford Asylum, and the disaster will occa sion than pest inconvenience. THE ROYAL COMMISSION ON RECRUITING. (From the Army and Navy Gazette.) The report of the royal commission upon the recruiting of the army—the most important document as the interests of the service and the efficiency of our r r Zt r aly establishments upon which we have bad to com ment—is now placed before her Majesty. Without, there fore, violating etiquette, we may satisfy the anxiety which exists throughout the ranks by giving a brief description of its leading recommendations, which, no doubt, will form the conditions of service in the army from the time that the next financial year begins. We shall do so without any word of comment beyond repeating what we have already said—namely, that the changes proposed are likely to be eminently satisfactory to those soldiers who are now deliberating as to whether they will prolong their term, and to those who may in future accept service. We believe that the periods of service recommended by the commis sioners are twelve ye .as for the fi rst and nine for the second term for all branches of the army. Those who re enlist are to have en increase of pay of twopence per day for the second term, and after its completion a pension of one shilling a day, both being irrespective of any pecuniary advantagenow obtainableforgood conduct. Along with these attractions an additional gift of clothing each year, and an increased meat ration per day are to be enjoyed by all sol diers. We are also glad to say that Aldershot and other similar camps are in future to exist only during a few of the summer months, and th at officers and men will be in winter quarters in garrison towns. Soma other improve ments are likely to be carried out, which will unquestion ably tend to make the service popular. Altogether, we may congratulate Lord Dalhousie and hie expenenced col leagues of the commission on having boldly yet judiciously framed changes well calculated to meet the difficulties they were assembled to overcome. THE WORTH BRITISH RAILWAY. A meeting of the London shareholders of this company was held on Saturday at the London Tavern to decide upon the course to be taken at the adjourned meeting of the shareholders, to be held in Edinburgh in the ensuing week. The chair was taken by Mr. Ferguson. Mr. Beaumont and Mr. Ronald, directors of the railway, and Mr. Mackenzie, one of the accountants of the com mittee of investigation, attended as a deputation from Scotland. The proceedings, which were considered to be of a private character, were confined to a discussion of the relative merits of Mr. Hodgson, M.P., the chairman of the North British, who had been the most active in the man agement of the company's affairs and by whose directions the so-called system of "cookiit' the accounts had been adopted, and the other mem bers of the board who ' had tacitly permitted this system to be adopted for so many years. The supporters of Mr. Hodgson con tended that the course which that gentleman had taken, although not strictly in accordance witb prin ciples which ought to govern the managers of public companies, was entered upon solely for the benefit of the company, and that, had any other plan been fol lowed, the probability was that the position of the under taking would have been much worse than it was at the pre- sent moment, and that the concern would have been entirely at the mercy of the neighbouring and hostile rail ways. To have disclosed to antagonistic companies the actual financial position of the undertaking would have been most suicidal, and would have completely prevented the company obtaining that commanding position which it now occupied, with access to Glasgow, Perth, and Dundee, and the securing the occupation of the route to Newcastle and Carlisle. It was argued that these advantages could not have been obtained, nor could the painful litigation to which the company had been exposed have been success fully contended against, without a temporary departure from the strict rule whereby the limits if expenditure out of revenue and capital had been defined, while, to use the words of Mr. Ho dgson himself in his reply to the report of the committee of investigation, " to have ad mitted the irregularities which occurred pending the ter mination of the struggle would have ensured pro on ;ation of hostilities and probable discomfiture." It was further contended that whatever irregularities had been committed they had not included any over issue of shares or loan capital, that not a mile of the railway had been made at enhanced cost by paynim.t of contractors in shares, and if the revenue had been fostered at ultimate coat of capital, the shareholders themselves had derived the full benefit of the arrangement. The reply of Mr. Hodgson was fre quently referred to, and the speakers in his favourezpressed hair confidence in his ability to carry the company through its present difficulties, and realise the prospect which he had held out, that the revenue will speedily prove itself more than equal to all obligations in respect of prefer . ence dividends, with a surplus for ordinary shareholders. 6 The chairman and dissentient directors took the view of the committee of investigation, and contended that the policy adopted hail been most injurious to the in . terests of the company, and that nothing but a con viction that its affairs would in future be treated in an honest and straightforward manner would restore public confidence in the undertaking. When asked how it was that the other directors had not discharged their duty of looking after the interests of the company during the period over which these irregularities were said to have occurred they replied that it was utterly impossible for them to know anything of the accounts, or of the system of " cookins " which hail been adopted. A. strong opinion was expressed that the directors ought to have insisted upon making themselves acquainted with matters of so much vital importance as the declaration of dividends and the payment of the liabilities of the company. Mr. Mackenzie, as one of the accountants, entered into a number of ex deflations on various matters of account which were in dispute between Mr. Hodgson and the committee ; and ultimately Mr. Wright moved a resolution to the effect that, after the explanations and discussions which have taken place, it is the opinion of the meeting that the con fidence of the shareholders should he given to the coni mitteeof investigation. The resolution was seconded by Mr. Hartridge. On the other hand, Mr. M`Laren moved as an amendment, " That the shareholders of the North British Company, having heard the statement respecting the railway and its affairs, are decidedly of opinion that the safety of the property depends on the services of the present chairman being retained." Mr. Roby seconded the amend ment ; but on being put to the meeting, the original resolu tion was carried by a considerable majority.—Observer. THE. SMITHEIELD CLUB CATTLE SHOW.—The forebodings which at this period last year beset the agri cultural mind as to whether the ravages of the cattle plague, and the probability of contagion arising from bring ing a large number of animals together, would not have the effect of preventing our great annual Christmas show of fat stock from being held, now, happily, no longer exist, and the ensuing anniversary of the Smithfield Club is looked forward to with increasing interest, and without that apprehension of danger which was attached to its pre decessor. not only prior to, but throughout the whole exhibi tion, and which led to the shortening of it by a day in Decem ber last. The day appointed for the opening of the show this year is Monday, the 10th of December, when, after 2 p.m., provided the judges have finished their awarda,there will be a species of private view, at a fee of ss. admission, and it will then be opened as usual to the general public on Tues day, the 11th; Wednesday, the 12th; Thursday, the 13th; and Friday, the 14th. The number of entries, which are compelled by the rules of the club to be made on or before Nov. 1, have consequent upon the disappearance of the rinderpest materially increased over those of last year, and may be said to average in the respective classes those of any previous cattle show since the club has held it anni versary at the Agricultural-hall. The prizes the Smith field Club have awarded this year amount in the aggre gate to upwards of 2,2001. The show will be divided into 56 classes, being some eight or ten more than usual, of which thirty four are devoted to cattle, eighteeen to sheep, and four to pigs. The money prizes to be awarded in the cattle classes alone reach the sum of 1,325/., which is more than double the amount of the whole snm given by the club some few years ago, when the show WAS held at the Baker-street Bazaar. The money prizes for sheep amount to 560/., and for pigs 120/., or to gether 2,005/. In addition to this the club this ear award 1601. in silver cups, and some 50/. or 601. in gold and silver medal., making the aggregate prize list reach somewhere about 2,2501. The president of the present year is his Grace the Duke of Richmond. Mr. R. H. Ellman, of Land port, Lewes; Mr. Joshua Drum, of Eynsham, Oxford • Mr. Owen Wallis, of Orerstone Northampton ; Mr. Edward Pope, of Mai d en Newton, Dorset ; Mr. Thomas Twitchell, of Willington, Bedford, and Mr. Charles Howard, of Bid der,ham, Bedford, are the stewards of live stock, and Mr. W. Senday, of Holmepierpoint, Nottingham, and Mr. R. Overman, Edgmere, Brandon, Norfolk, stewards of imple ment'. There have been several changes in the council during the past year, including the regrettable death of Mr. Fisher Hobbs, who was a most indefatigable member of the council, and supporter of the Smithfield Club.-06- "MT. --- - METROPOLITAN FREE HOSPITAL, DEVONSHIRE SQUARE, City.—The aggregate number of patients relieved during the week ending Nov. 10 was—Medial, 828; sur gical, 861; total. 1,389, of which 612 wets novr swam MARKETS.

A review of the whole week's market presents • depressing influence. On Tuesday there was an attempt to put up rims, in consequence of • more active and firm market in cotton at Liverpool but it was a doubtful success. It led to • more active inquiry, and rather more business in some descriptions of shipping yarns, and especially cope for the Continent, but lower rates had to be taken in many cases to effect sales. In cloth, India and China buyers kept aloof, and though quo t a tions were advanced, they could not practically be sustained. Since Tuesday the market has been gradually weakening. India mules are id. to id. per lb. lower. Home trade 28's to 32's warps have given way id., and Blackburn yarns have declined id. to 11. per lb. There is • decline to about the same extent on the Bolton class of yarns. In cloths, the value of heavy goods , such as do mestics, T cloths, and long cloths. seems to be better main tained than most kinds, but the market generally has been dull and prices depressed . For India shirtiugs, jaconets, mulls, and light goods the demand has been very re stricted. Today light fabrics made of Egyptian cotton are as firm as anything. WOOL AND WORSTED.—HEADVOED, NOV. 10.— The wool trade continues in a very inanimate condition, with a tendency to easier rates. There is no sufficient test to ascertain the extent to which quotations have of late fallen. Staplers, knowing no reasonable abatement would enable them to sell, do not offer their wool. The sales made are so scanty in amount, and the prices so irregular, that it is impossible to quote a ruling figure. Worsted yarns are much neglected. The foreign merchants buy a few balsa now and then. Home manufacturers wake a few purchases to meet current wants. This may be said to be the extent of the business doing. Spinners whose contracts ran out either work to stock or stop their frames. Prices continue very irregular, and are in favour of the buyer. A similar apathy pervades the piece branch. Home merchants are doing an unusually small amount of business, the season of the year con sidered, and are quite indisposed . to order for the spring season. Some foreign and Amerman buyers have during the week been looking round and testing prices. Prices are unsettled. WOOLLEN.—Lama , Nov. Io.—The foggy date of the atmosphere has tended to check operations in the cloth halls this morning. The attendance of merchants has been small, and their transactions have been restricted entirely to parcels required for actual orders. In the coloured market the transfer of a few pieces of meltons, along with a limited number of tweeds, has formed the bulk of the business transacted ; plain cloths have been seldom in- quired after. The same amount of dulness has pervaded both the heavy and hairlist departments in the white hall; few parcels worthy of observation have changed hands, and the business transactions of the morning have been entirely of a nominal character. There has not been any alteration in prices. HARDWARE.—BIRIONOHAN, Nov. 10.—The trade of this town continues quiet, but is much the same in that respect as it has been for many weeks. The factors who are most extensively engaged in the country trade are re ceiving very small orders, and manufacturers generally are very closely worked up ; in some branches the men are not making more than three or four days. In the foreign de partment a little more is being done ; the principal orders given out of late have been on account of America and Canada. With respect to the former it is less active than at the corresponding period of last year, but on the whole it is up to the average. The West Indian trade is also steady. The continental orders generally are small, espe cially those on account of Germany. The East Indian , trade is still to a great extent suspended.

There was a good supply of barley offered, and for the best de scriptions of malting the rates of this day se'nnight were realized ; secondary sorts also met a ready sale on late terms.
