Mr. John Smithers, steward of the United Service Club, said he was in the ceffes-rocee about half-past 9, and heard a row outside. One of the windows was broken by a hur I stone, which fell into the area below. Could not see who throw the stone. The glass wss very thick. Prisoner said there wes not such a stone in the road. Inspector West said time were plenty, one of the road ways having been lately repaired in the district. Mr. It. T. Peters proved that windows were broken in the writing and morning rooms of the Athenaeum Club, and he produced a Mose, which the servants of the club picked up in one of the mans this morning. Ile deposed to the amount of damage. Mr. Flowers did not think the worse of a person because he was ill-dressed, and it was impossible to believe that any honest man, however poor, would wantonly break windows. It could only injure them without damaging the clubs, the windows bong usually insured. It appeared to be simply a love of mischief, and idle boys were always reedy to follow a bad example. The polies could have no motive in • • them oat, and believing the evidence, he fined Fenn , and th e boy se. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF COMMONS.-(THIS DAY.)

This day the general meeting of the pr prietors was held at the London Tavern, Mr. F. W. RuhIaILLII., M.P., in the chair. The report, which has already been published, having been taken as read, The CHAIRMAN, in moving its adoption, said the last half-year was one of peculiar difficulty. There was a pecuniary panic of great and long continued severity, and - besides this there was • war on the continent, which contributed to the difficulties of the period. It is no small test of the management of the company that they tared through this trying period in the manner dis closed in the accounts. (Hear, hear.) They had only set aside • sum of 2 , 5001 . to meet bad debts, but of this amount he believed they would ultimately lose nothing. (Hear, hear.) There was another class of accounts, namely, those bills which had been taken with the acceptances of other companies, with regard to which they would be more cautious in the future, but on this class they would not suffer any loss. During the half-year ending December the number of new accounts opened was 692 ; in the past half-year 1,633 new accounts had been opened, showing an increase of be tween 900 and 1,000 new accounts. Those were deposit accounts. (Hear, bear.) He should now move the adop tion of the report. Mr. BARN, M.P., congratulated the directors on the re port presented to the meeting. It showed an able, judi cious, and expert management. He was glad to find that the directors were going to profit by past expatiation, and trusted they would confine themselves to the business of a strictly commercial discount company. (Hear, hear.) He felt sure that the management of the future would be as prudent as the management of the past, and as he was obliged to attend to his duties in another place he wished to say that he should heartily concur in any mark of ac knowledgment which the shareholders might think fit to offer to the directors. (Hear.) . . The report was put and adopted. A dividend at the rate of 20 per cent. per annum for the half year, free of income tax and it , ! iyable on and after the let of August, was declared ; 3,1+331. being carried for ward. _ _ Votes of thanks were pulsed to the directors and to Mr. Webber, the manager, the secretary, and staff of the company. Tim CHAIRMAN bore testimony to the ability divlayed by Mr. Webber, and to the zeal of the staff generally. A SHAREHOLDER hoped that some substantial mark of the appreciation of the shareholders would be given to the manager, of the company. (Hear.) THE LONDON FINANCIAL ASSOCIATION. (THIS DAY.) This day the general meeting of shareholders was held at the Baltic, Threadneedle-street ; Mr. HACK BLOCK in the chair. The report, which has already appeared, having been taken as read, The CHAIRMAN said that taking into consideration the perilous times through which they passed, the report was, perhaps, as favourable as could have been expected. This was the first of the finance companies, and it would be strange indeed if they had not committed mistakes ; bat beyond errors of judgment they could not be impugned in any part of their management. He thought they were now in a better position than they had been for some time past. It was the custom now to run down financial difficulties, but what class of h'miness was better than advances to contractors of great public works such as Sir Morton Peto and others, provided it was prudently done. (Hear, hear.) He admitted that errors had been committed. W ith regard to the shareholders' report, that report was made quite independent of the direc tors. With whatever feelings the committee met, be believed they were at last satisfied that their capital was intact. (Hear, hear.) The directors regretted that they could not recommend the view of the shareholders committee, namely, to give • dividend for the present half-year. The directors were supported in their opinion by the auditors. He concluded by moving the adoption of the report. Mr. McKee seconded the motion. Mr. MOKRTKON said he had no wish to find fault with the directors, but he regretted that they were to be dismissed without a dividend. He hoped the past would be a warning for the future. They had been pressed by heavy calls and their shares had been run down. He should move as an addition to the motion for the adoption of the report the following words, " and that in conformity with a recom mendation of the report of the shareholders, the pre sent amount of remuneration of the directors should be changed, so as to substitute a fixed amount as such remuneration, and that the directors be requested to adopt such measures as would prevent the apprehension of future calls either by at once reducing the nominal amount of the .harts to the amount already paid or by adopting such a mode of management as would make the money paid up sufficient to meet all the occasions of the association." The motion having been seconded, Mr. Powers, asked what was the nominal amount of the securities on which advances to the amount of 1600,0001. had been advanced. He agreed with the Cheinnan that r ailway workswere • good security, but these railways should be completed. Otherwise, if the contractor failed, they would be left with tudlnished works on their bands, on which it would be impossible for them to realise the money which bad been advaseed. li l l p e os =ed with the directors that they were so 4 is a to make a dividend. meeting bad not terminated whin we went to prim] .llt BANK .

The funds to-day show increased heaviness, owing to the number of realisations, pertly specu lative and partly bond fide, which have fol lowed the late rise. There is little disposition to operate, in the present uncertain condition of foreign politics, and with the holidays approaching. Consols have declined to I per cent. Home railways, though dull, are compara tively steady, but the speculative foreign stocks have given way, especially Italian and Turkish. The downward movement has extended to the chief American wearies, and to Lombardo-Venetian Railway shares. Grand Trunk of Canada Railway stock and Atlantic Telegraph securities are excep tionally in request. Irmancialshares are unaltered. The discount market is quiet, but 9 to per cent. continues to be asked for good bills. Consols are now quoted 88 to 1 for money, end 881, or 88 3-16 to 5-16 for the account (August 9). Foreign stocks are heavy, and prices generally are lower. There is a fall of 1 per cent. in Italian Bonds of 1861 and Turkish of 1862 ; in Turkish of 1866 and Spanish Passive ; and in Mexican. Spanish Certificates, however are steady. Turkish Bonds of 1862 are now quoted 51 to 52, ex div. ; ditto of 1865, 271 to 281 ; Greek, 114 to 124 ; Spanish Passive, 20 to 4; ditto Certificates, 161 to 1 ; Italian, 1861, 534 to 54, ex div. ; Brazilian scrip, 3to 24 dia. ; and Mexican, 174 to 1. American securities are heavy. The 5-20 Bonds are 1 lower, at 70 to 7 ; Erie Railway shares lower, at 44 to 45 ; and Illinois Central, 1 lower, at 78 to 79. International Financial shares are now quoted 11 to 14 dia. ; London Financial, 114 to 10} die. ; General Credit, 11 to 14 dis. ; Credit Fonder, 34 to 3} die., ex div.

The prospects of the money market seem to be improving in several respects. The increased firm nese of the exchanges has already given a check to the demand for gold for exportation. This is natural, seeing that, owing to the complete absence of demand for India and Chins, nearly the whole of the silver imported is now sent to the Continent, while, at the same time—what is of still more im portance—the continued fall in the corn market here of course checks imports of foreign grain. To these considerations must be added the desire on the part of foreign capitalists to invest the money which is thrown out of employment by the war in mercantile channels in this country—a desire which will increase in proportion as the value of money falls abroad, and as distrust of our mercantile posi tion dies away. With the commencement of an unusually early harvest, money will necessarily be absorbed to some extent in the provinces, and country bankers will, perhaps, find in this de mend some justification for the hoarding which they have practised ; but the effect of this in checking the inevitable fall in the value of money can be only temporary. An instalment of 10 per cent. fell due yesterday on the last Brazilian loan. About 9,0001. in gold was sent into the Bank yes terday, and 25,000 sovereigns were withdrawn for Belgium. Owing to the improvement in the • foreign exchanges the demand for gold for expor tation has sensibly diminished. Bar silver was quoted yesterday 4s. 11d. per ounce, and Mexican dollars Se. Ofd., showing a fresh decline of id. in each case. The foreign exchanges were generally better yes ' terday, owing to an increased feeling of confidence abroad, and the downward tendency there of the rates of discount. The recent large exports of gold from this aide have also operated in the same di rection.

Mr. GERMAN filled the chair. The CHAIRMAN proposed the following resolution, which was seconded by Mr. BARGE, and agreed to without die- mission : " That this meeting is of opinion it would be to the interests of the creditors to have this company wound up voluntarily under the supervision of the court rather than compulsorily as it would be attended with considerably lees expense and delay.

Even the finest samples commanded scarcely any attention, wbibt the trade far inferior produce was very dull at Tide Monday's decline in the quotations. The quantity of foreign wheat on the steads wr s toler ably extensive. For all descriptions the demand was vary quiet at the late reduction in prices. In floating cargoes of grain, the translations were on a limited Reale, at bite rates. There was a good supply of foreign barley on offer, bay very little English produce. The inquiry was heavy, and inferior foreign qualities were rather cheaper. Malt moved off slowly, on former terms. Oats were in good supply, sad @lsaiah request. The value of inferior parcels had a drooping tendency. Beans were dull, at about previous quotations. In peas very little business was passing, and the tendency of rinses was in favour of buyers. The flour trade was very quiet, at the late fall in priest Linseed and rapeseed moved off slowly, and in cakes the transactions were on a limited scale.

APPRSHENSION AND FACAPZ OP • CbOTH HEN, CAANT or GOTKELFY. — Mr. John Barrett, who mmHg absconded with 1,6001., has been amrehended, but sub. sequently escaped, under the folio wing circumstances. On Monday, three of his creditors, receiving infonratiou of his whereabouts, after he had been absent for a year and ten mouths, proceeded to Knaresbro'. There they found him in • field, making hay, and, after a gent raw, cue needed in securing him in a hedge. They brought him home to Gueseley, a distance of more than twenty miles, having arrived there about five o'clock yesterday morning. He asked to be allowed to call and see his family and wash himself. This favour his captors granted, and two of them went to inform some other creditor,, leaving him in charge of the third merchant. Barrett went into the kitchen, professedly to 'nigh himself, bet at once availed himself of the opportunity, and succeeded in escaping through the back door, thus again eluding his enalitors awl leaving behind him what consolation they could gather from having caught him and lost him again im mediately.
