THE POLICE COURTS. (THIS DAY.) BOW-STREET. PAGLI'." Mr. Howard. proprietor of the Lyon's Inn Hotel, New castle-street, strand. applied to the sitting magistrate, Mr. Flower., for advice under the following circum sta‘ces Howanl stated that on New Year's day, a young man of gentlemanly appearance called at his house, and uolered dinner for 6 o'clock. At that hour he dined, had a pint of sherry, smoked a cigar (being very par ticular to have the best), pail his bill, and went away. On the following day, the 2nd January, he called again, and ordered a bed for that night. He re gained until the 9th. He said hie name was Theodore Paget, and that he was sixth mate on board the Great I Eastern steamship, which, he observed, was equivalent to second mate in an ordinary vessel He said he bad pre viously been in the royal navy, but upon the death of his father, who was lost in the Royal Charter, he considered that having no longer any in fluence to help him on in his profession, in' her Ilajesty's service, he would have a better prospect in the mercantile marine, and therefore resigned his coin mantel, and took service in the Great Eastern. He also stated that during the American war he had served on a blockade runner, awl exhibited a badge bearing the oog finance of three livers, which he said was the Confederate hedge. His bearing was gentlemanly and his manners fascinating, and neither applicant nor any of the inmates of the establishment had the slightest doubt that he was what he represented himself to be, a gentleman, and an officer of the Great Eastern. He dressed in naval style, wearing • blue jacket an d ves t w ith g il t b uttons, an d blue trousers. He exhibited copies of the play per formed on board th e G rea t E as t ern in July, 1866, and a page of the log, both in lithograph. He said he did not take an active part in the play, as it was Performed during his watch. On the 9th inst. he said he was going away the next day, has :ng to join his ship, and be was anxious that his bill should be made out. He went out that evening on the pretence of posting some letters and never returned. Afterwards, in consequence of 101 w f .ertisement which he saw in the newspapers, applicant called on a coffee-house keeper in the York-road, who had been victimised by a person calling himself Theophilus Paget, and who, from the description, seemed to be the same person. He seemed to have called there immediately after leaving the Lyon's Inn, and to have disappeared the sett day. He had given a very similar account of him 'dl and had offered to procure a berth on board the Great Eastern for the landlord's son, whom be took for that purpose to the Seamen's Registry-office, and leaving him alone in • waiting-room, disappeared. On inquiry he (Mr. Howard) ascertained that there was no officer of the name of Paget connected with the vessel. There was, however, a seaman named James Paget, acting as officer's servant, who, from the description, was dmht leis the same person. He was paid off with the rest of the crew in October, 1866, up to which time he bore • good character. Mr. Howard thought he certainly should not have not trusted him but for his representation that lie was an officer of the Great Eastern. It was a case of ob taining money by false pretences. Mr. Flowers said it perhaps was so morally, but he was afraid a criminal prosecution would not succeed. Mr. Howard had only a civil remedy. CLERICILNWELL. A HUBBANIVB DEPECCE. Mr. Karl Rhein, a merchant, in an extensive way of business in the City of London, and residing in Islington, appeared before Mr. ('ooke to answer a summons which had been taken out against him by Mr. Messer, the re lieving overseer of the parish of St. Mary, Islington chargin g hi m w i t h d esert i ng his wife, Maria Rhein,, whereby she bad become chargeable to that parish and vtnow an inmate. fir. Beard, solicitor, wbo appeared for the defence, 141 he did not wish to deny that the wife was chargeable, but he should be able to show that Mrs. Rhein had been pthy of adultery with more than one person, and that b 5 0 104 so and pmceedings having been taken i n th e Di vorce ourt for the Intrpoettor obtaining a divorce, the defendant mull not be held to have been guilty of desertion. The eve had been adjourned for the production of evidence of th'" (Milt of the def e ndant' s wife on the charges imput e d le ler, and that he should be able to prove to the satisfac nm of the magistrate ; and then he bad no doubt that Mr. If•uler, on the part of the perish, would withdraw his iunnuoru. TWosery ant* in the employ of defendant and his wife users examined at the previous hearing of the case on the ult. Mr. Messer said that after the evidence be had heard he withdraw the summons, if, pending the proceedings ,Ln the Invoice Court, an allowance was made t o th e w if e . ` 4 ' , was now near her confinement, and if an allowance "as ncole to her she could leave the hones. The defend ant eould of course indemnify the parish the expenses that they had already incurr e d in maintaining the wife in t workhouse. Mr. lksinl said that the parish authorities had acted "Y fairly in the matter, and on his client's behalf he vodd consent to the arrangement proposed by Mr. Messer. Ur. Cooke said he had no objection to the course pro tw•i. and Mr. Messer having withdrawn the summons krties left the court. , AIARSIING tu'r:lß AT A RAILWAY RTATION. Hqrman, 2 , 4,a clerk, residing at 5, Alfred-street. charged with being drunk and disorderly at the florniey station of the Great Northern Hailw and refim.itig to lea% e when requested. last night, on the arrival of the 10 o'clock up train at the above atation, the passengers complained that the defendant was drunk, and had been abusing the paseengers, and fighting with them. He was aske d to leave the carriage. but he w 0.11.1 ti..t do 40, ,01.1 when he was cotout he clung to the handl, s of the carriages at the imminent risk of hi, life, 34 time train was en the point of starting. and the defendant** eonduct delayed the train some two or Olive minutes. When the train had started the defendant made diqurbance and would not go away. awl he was then given into custody. By the company s byelaw, the defendant had rendered himself liable t , , pcnalty of 40,. for committing the latter offence. The defendant said he exceedingly regretted what had occurred, although he was afraid that the witnesses had ev%grrated the circumstances. Having been a little way down the line on a matter of business he had, owing tm. the cold, taken a little hot brandy and water, :Ind that bad overcome him. If he had caused inconvenience. or had insulted any of the passengers or the officials, he would at once make an ample apology. Mr. Cook said that the defendant had made the best de fence he could by admitting his offence, and saying that be was sorry for it. Such conduct as the defendant bad been guilty of would not be allowed, and be should order him to pay a tine of 7s. lid., but mentioned no term of limo prisonment in default. The defendant not having the money was removed to the cells by the gaoler. WORSHIP-STREET. LAMENT : \ BLit EFFECT t•F STONE THROWN.:. Willtant 11whl, between 10 and 11 years of age, described as being of no occupation, and living in Artillery-at reet, Bishopsgate, was charged with violently assaulting a young man named Edward Boss, a watchmaker, at 17, White Lion-street, Spitalfields, by wantonly throwing a atone. This offence was committed on the last suutlaj in December, but the injury inflicted rendered it neces sary to remand the defendant week after week until the probable result could be ascertained. The complainant, whose forehead was bandaged across the right eye, deposed—Between 4 and 5 o'clock in the afternoon of the date mentioned I was standing in rhumb passage, :Spit:Ll-square, Bishopagute, talking with a Com panion, when the prisoner came behind me and fired a per cussion cap off a small pistol ; it passed my left cheek, and I felt a stinging sensation. I told him not to repeat such an act, or I would box his ears ; but be put on another trap, went to the front of me, and again fired ; he repeated this front where he then stood, and I rum after him, bored his ears, as he tried to avoid tue. and he feU. I walked away from him about 100 yards, and then perceived him run forward, holding a stone as large as an egg, which he every now and then aimed at nie. I kept on my guard, and at the first oppor tunity took it from him. I again left him, hut he fol lowed me, took up another stone, and instantly flung it at me ; scarcely a second bad elapsed from the time I had taken the other away from him. Blood gushed from my right eye. I pulled out my handkerchief. He ran away ; but I followed, , caught him, and afterwards assisted in taking him to the station-house. As I held him he tried to bite me. By Mr. Newton—l did not see him throw the stone, but I did see him running after I was struck. I am a Bible reader. Prisoner goes to the same school. Cross-examined by Mr. Graves—l did not strike nor kick him, nor anything. Mr. Newton—Yes you boxed his ears once. Witness—Yes, sir, after he had fired. Mr. Newton— And served him right, too. Mr. Graves—You do not suppose it was done maliciously —the injury I mean!. Mr. Newton— It looks very much like it. Not any amount of damage can compensate for the loss of an eye ; nor can any terms express my sense of this most scandalous and wanton act. It can't be justified in any way. A gentleman attached to the Sunday School here re marked—His conduct in the school was really exemplary. sir; but I cannot withhold expressing my abhorrence of this shameful conduct. Complainant—l don't wish him punished, air. In fact. I would not have brought the matter to this oourt, but that his father did not express the least sympathy. I'm a watchmaker, and get my living by my right eye. Mr. Graves—You will perhaps a ll ow the matter to be arranged, sir , ~ etween the friends of the parties. Mr. Newton—There's no doubt an action will be brought in the County Court. This young man will not be able to carry on his business. There is a permanent injury. Doctor Phillips, the divisional surgeon of police, had certified that there was a contused wound on the eye, a laceration of the upper eyelid, and a puncture of the eye ball, which must prevent the restoration of perfect sight. Mr. Newton—And he has now been unemployed three weeks. Mr. Greaves—The boy's father is willing to pay com plainant a sovereign down now and two more in the course of the week. Mr. Newton (to the father, who is a carpenter)—Are you a muter or a servant! Father—A waster, sir, but only in a small way. Mr. Newton—You appear to think that your son is much ill-treated. Father—l do, sir. Mr. Newton—Do you? then I beg to observe that in my opinion you are greatly mistaken ; he is, to say the least of it, a most mischievous boy. I want nothing more to say to you, sir. I advise that between this day and neat week you learn what more can be done for this poor young man. The boy is remanded on the same recognisances. Complainant—Three pounds is a small sum. I earned my living by my right eye. It seems very hard that I should lose it in this way. Mr. Newton (impressively)—l am very, very sorry for you. SOUTHWARK. FRIGHTFUL DisTRES4 AMONG THE LABOI RING CI.AS'IEB AT DOCIEHEAD AND BERMONDSEY. Soon after Mr. Woolrych had taken his seat on the bench, a deputation from the tradesmen and inhabitants of Dockbead, Bermondsey, waited upon him, to ask his advice and assistance in alleviating the frightful misery and distress among the labouring classes in their locality. Mr. Smith, who headed the deputation, informed his worship that the distress among the labouring-classes at Dockhead had within the last few days become truly alarming. Thousands were thrown out of employment, and many he was afraid starving for want of warmth and food. The sight of so many fellow-beings in such a de plorable state caused a number of tradesmen in the locality to form themselves into a oommittee,and that morning about • dozen of them had subscribed 2/. 2s. each to relieve some of the most urgent cases immediately. He need not tell his worship that all water-side business was at • stand still, and their chief residents in this locality depended on that labour for their support. Mr. Woolrych—Have you any notion as to the number of distressed families coming within your scope? Mr. Smith—l should thick, sir, there are no less than a thousand families now in deep distress. Mr. Woolrych—Then I am afraid I shall not be able to do much to help you in your charitable and praiseworthy work. All I have at command's the limited funds in the poor-box, which have lately been much pressed upon. The funds I regret to say are getting low, as within the last fewdays the demands upon them have een very great. Yesterday I relieved upwards of a hundred distressed people with small sums of money, and several thouaando of breed and coal tickets have been distributed. Mr. Smith—We regret to hear of no much distress, and would not have troubled your worship but for the urgent distress that exists. We cannot keep in our shops, as we are besieged by the poor people, and unless immediate steps are taken for their immediate relief the result might be awful to contemplate. I enure your worship in dis pensing the funds at our disposal we intend to inquire into every case personally, and if requisite to visit the appli crate, and do all we can to prevent any fraud being practised upon the committee. Mr. Woolrych— I am glad to hear that; and with your local knowledge, I am sure you can do& great deal of good. Have you many dock labourers among the distressed . Mr. Smith Yes, sir, from the Commercial and Surrey docks ; but the majority are labourers working at the wharves and other waterside occupations. We have also large numbers of tanners who have been entirely frozen out. Mr. Woolrych—Are any on the strike ? Mr. Smith—Not one, sir. They are chiefly poor labour ing men, who when at work do not earn more than from threepence to fourpence an hour, and olt of that they are unable to put away anything for a rainy day. Mr. Woolrych (after looking at the list of subscriptions handed to him by Mr. Smith) said he was glad to see tradesmen act in such a laudable and praiseworthy way, and he would do all be could to assist them. He therefore granted them ten guineas from the poor-box fund, and would be happy to hear as soon as possible how the com mittee succeeded in their good work. He concluded by wishing to go hand in hand with them in relieving the distress as far as he could. The deputation thanked his worship for his advice and assistance, and withdrew. WANDSWORTH. ROBBERY BY ♦ FIBITIIAN. Henry Warnecke, fcattuan, and Rondolph R7iL, a copper. smith, both Germans, were re-examined on the charge of stealing and feloniously receiving a considerable quantity of miscellaneous property. It will be recollected that Warnecke had been in the service of Mr. Richard Henry Wyatt, of Wandaworth lodge, Wandsworth-common, as fo o tm a n, for a b ou t f our months. He was seen by Police-constable Coates to come out of his master's house with a hamper, which he gave to the other prisoner, who walked away with it. Both pri soners were apprehended, for the hamper was found to contain 42 glasses, soap, candles, and other property be. longing to Mr. Wyatt, and both in the footman's room and also at the residence of Klitz, 15, Porter-street, Soho, a variety of articles belonging to the p rosecu t or were a lso found. Since the prisoners had been in custody, the pollee had been in communication with the authorities at Hastings. In Warnecke's box were found some note paper bearing the words " Beaufort-house, St. Leonardo," and also an album which contained his photograph. The prisoner'. photograph was removed from the album, and sent to the Hastings police to ascertain whether he was known to them. A reply had been received from Mr. Superin tendent Glenister stating that the photograph was that of Henry Warnecke, who was formerly in the service of Mrs. Mason, of Beaufort-house, St. Leonardo, and was tried at the sessions in Hastings, on the 22,a of October, lain, when be was sentenced to nine months' imprisonment for larceny as a servant. He was al,m indicted at the same time in four cases of obtaining Foods by false pretences, and pleaded guilty to the whole. The letter also stated that he had, since his release, been living at the house of Klitz, porter-street, Newport Market, and had endeavoured to obtain a situation by false pretences. It also appeared that inquiries had becu made about Klitz, but nothing was known against him. Sergeant Haynes said that since the last examination be had been to the house of Klitz and received other property which belonged to Mr. Wyatt. He bad alao found several other articles in Warnecke s bedroom. .11r. Wyatt valued all the property at 25/. Mr. Ingham said he should commit the prisoners for trial, but formally remanded them for re-attendance of a person from Hastings to prove the prisoner's conviction. THE WEATHER ON THE ATLANTIC. (BY ELETRIC TELLGRAI.II.) (t'ROll OUR OWN CORRINPON I OENT.) SOUTILUIrrON, TVLBDAY. The Allemania, one of the fastest Atlantic steamers afloat, has just arrived here. She left New York ou the sth, and was expected here on the 15th. She en countered most fearful south-easterly gales. One day she only ran 40 miles. She passed a steamer supposed to be a Liverpool mail packet from New York. THE REPRESENTATION OF STROUD. & T.! W. Nairn 10, 8.9. W. Aberdeen — 1 29.92 26 W. LeRA !29.993 1, 9.9. E.

Cavendish, M.P., yesterday attended the annual meeting of the Bradford Chamber of Commerce, and spoke at con siderable length upon commercial topics. Both gentle men alluded to the panic of last year and to the strikes which bad been so prevalent amongst work people ; and Mr. Forster moved a resolution supporting the Associated Chambers of Commerce in their efforts to procure the appointment of a committee of the House of Commons to consider the desirableness of establishing tribunals of commerce and courts of conciliation in this country. An influential meeting was held at Wolverhamp ton yesterday in favour of the extension of the Factorie s Act to the trades of the district. Lord Lyttelton, who presided, the Earl of Lichfield, and Mr. W. 0. Foster, M.P., spoke in favour of the extension of the act, and a revolution approving of such extension was unanimously adopted. The Archbishop of York presided yesterday at the annual meeting of the Sheffield Church Extension So ciety. He referred to the trade outrages in Sheffield, and urged the wealthy people of Sheffield to provide their less fortunate brethren with the means of learning their duties towards each other. The appropriation or non•appropria Hon of pews, he said, was a matter of detail ; the real question was whether a poor man should be able to go to the door of his pariah church with the full conviction that he would be treated as an equal when there. " Vienna," says the Nord, " is the only city in the world where the snow is removed as fast as it falls, but at an enormous expense. All the men out of work are set to sweep the streets at 60 kreutters (about l(r. 80e.) a day." A man has just lost his life in a paraffin candle manufactory at Zaehleradorf, in Austria, by falling into • sat of boiling oil. At a meeting of the Health Committee of the National Association for the Promotion of Social Science, held hat evening, at the office. Adam-street, Adelphi (Dr. Ald i a in the chair), Mr. J. F. Bateman, C.E., F.R.S., reed a paper upon " A Constant Water Supply fur Laadon."_ IFIE Dock LABOURERS. Last evening the Marquis of Townshend presided at • crowded public meeting of the dock, wharf, warehouse, and unskilled labourers, at Burdett.hall, Limehouie, in furtherance of the objects of the Dock Labourers' Association. The chair man said—There are upwards of 20,000 dock labourers at present starving, their wages being so small that it is im possible to exist upon them. The president of the associa tion, Mr. John Holms, proposed as a remedy that the surplus labour in London should be draughted to various parts of the country where there is work to be had. He deeply sympathised with the unfortunate men, and he thought that by co-operation and union they might better their position. Emigration, he suggested, would be one way. Mr. Richardson, the secretary, said, know ing that Mr. Houma was most anxious to get the Lord Mayor to establish a relief committee of merchants for the benefit of the suffering poor of the metropolis, he had supplied him with the following information, which might be relied upon as correct : —At the present time he might safely say 20,000 dock labourers had not earned one shilling for the past two months ; 15,000 of the above just dragging out a miserable existence by pledging and break ing up their own homes ; 5,000 more compelled to seek the scanty relief of the parishes of Whitechapel, ltethnal green, Spitallields, Shadwell, Poplar, and Wapping. Their condition was truly awful, and, to make their case worse, there was very little shipping going in or out of the docks. There was not more than one-tenth of the usual number of men employed at the docks. He was informed that the wharf labourers from Westminster to Greenwich were also out of work. In conclusion, he called upon the meeting, if they wished to improve their condition, to come forward and join the Dock Labourers' Asso ciation. Dr. Bowkett moved—" That this meeting, knowing that the condition of the dock labourers is deplorable in the extreme, appeals to a benevolent public to assist in the speedy adoption of such meats for improving the condition of these men as would secure to every man a sufficiency of the necessaries of life for him self and family in return for his industry and exertions." He held in his hand a statement of the earnings of one man, Richard Down, for seven years, the total amount of which was 1151. 10a., averaging 161. 10s. per year, or 6a. 4d. per week. The above case might be taken as a specimen of the whole. Ile would ask how it was pos sible for a man's family to live upon the above sum. The resolution was supported by Mr. J. Helms (of London and Glasgow), Mr. Creighton (the treasurer), and Mr. Wilford, and was carried unanimously. A vote of thanks to the chairman closed the meeting. ALLEORD CRUELTY TO A LUNATIC.—Tiro warders of the Devon County Lunatic Asylum, respectively named John Stoneman and George Lee, were on Friday brought up in custody, berme a full bench of magistrates at the Castle of Exeter, charged with severely beating and other wise illtreating an inmate of the asylum, named Frederick Lockyer. Dr. Sanders stated that Lockyer was now lying in • very dangerous condition in the hospital of the asylum. Three of his ribs were broken, and be wan hurt in the head and near one eye, all the injuries arising from violence used towards him. His recovery is very doubtful. The deposi tions of the injured man and other witnesses led to the ap prehension of the prisoners, who were now remanded for a week. The magistrates required bail to the amount of 250/., which was not forthcoming, and the prisoners were conse quently locked up. The keeper of a wineshop at Pantin, near Paris, has just committed suicide with charcoal, from grief at the loss of a sum of money in business. His infant son, who slept in the same room, was found dead in his arms. The man had • short time previously proposed to his wife to put an end to their lives together, to which she refused to consent. MiTROPOLITAN Fazi HOSPITAL, DEVONSHIB.I - CITY.—The aggregate number of patients relieved during the week ending Jan. 19 was—Medical, 667 ; sur gical, 467 ; total, 1,134 ; of which 552 were new eases. 1 MARE LISTS.--(THIS DAY.) 1 Own I The railway market is inactive to-day, and the only changes are a rise of 1 per cent. in Great Eastern stack, and a decline of / in Metropolitan. • Metropolitan stock is now quoted 1301 to * • Great Western, thq • London and North Western, 122/ to 1 ; Midland, 1231 to 1 ; Lan cashire and Yorkshire 1301 to 1; Caledonian 121/ to 1224 ; South Eastern, 72g to •, Greai Eastern, 34/ to 35 ; Great Northern, 120/ to 121/ ; ditto A, 131 to 7 ; London, Chatham, and Dover, 171 to 181 ; and North British, 381 to;.

In the absence of purchases on banking and I public account, English government securities were again pressed for sale this morning by the specu lators for lower prices, and the result was a further reduction of 1 to per cent. in Consols. The tendency is now, however, somewhat better, and a partial recovery is apparent. Foreign bonds and British railway stocks are inactive, but Great Eastern is inquired for, owing to the announcement that Mr. Samuel Lsing, M.P., has consented to join the board of that undertaking. There is a slight demand for some of the financial shares, including International and London. The rate for choice bills is unchanged, at 3 pe r cent., the demand for money being still very moderate, and the supply extremely large. Short loans on English government securities arc offered in the Stock Exchange at 11 to 2 per cent. Consols are now quoted 90g for money, and 901 to 1 for the account (February 7). The foreign stock market is inactive, and the only change in the speculative descriptions is a rise of 1 per cent, in Greek. Chili= scrip is firm, at 11 to 2 prem. Turkish Bonds of 1862 are quoted 54 to 55, ex div. ; ditto of 1865, 29'1 to 1. Greek, 141 to ; Spanish Passive, 211 to 2'4 ; ditto Certificates, 141 to 1; Italian of 1861, 54} to I, ex div. ; Mexican, 17/ t) IS ; and Russian Scrip, 11 to 1/ prem. American securities are firmer. The 5-20 Bonds are quoted 721 to showing a rise of u per cent. ; Erie Railway shares, 431 t to I, being ;f better ; and Illinois Central, 804 to 21—an advance of i. International Financial shares are quoted 2} to 2} dis. ; London Financial, 18 to 17 dis. ; General Credit, 2 to 11 dis. ; Credit Fonder, to 5i dia. ; National Discount, N to I : prem. ; and Hudson's Bay, 161 to k. The report of the directors of the Midland Bank ing Company, to be presented at the meeting of shareholders convened for the 30th inst., shows a balance of 12,729/., and recommends a dividend at the rate of 6 per cent, per =nun for the half year, free of income tax. The meeting of the London and Provincial Ma rine Insurance Company will be held on the 31st inst., and that of the Mediterranean Extension Telegraph Company on the Bth of February. The amount of gold taken from the Bank yesterday for exportation was only 7,0001. The coin recently withdrawn from that establishment consisted of Australian sovereigns, which are suitable for trans mission to the continent, because they contain a considerable proportion of silver. The Mexican dollars by the steamer LaPlata were sold yesterday, partly for Holland and partly for refining, at 4a. no. per ounce, showing a rise of id. Bar silver is rather firm, at ss. op. to ss. Id., owing, it is stated, to purchases for coinage pur poses. The failure of an old established firm in the sugar trade was announced yesterday, with liabili ties estimated at about 30,000/. The Union Bank of Australia have given notice that they are authorised by the Wellington (New Zealand) government to negotiate a loan for 50,0001. in debentures of 100/. each, bearing in terest at the rate of 8 per cent. por annum. The principal will become due in July. 1886, and both principal and interest are made payable in London. Tenders will be received up to Wednesday, the 30th inst. The following is the report of the directors of the Consolidated Bank (Limited) to be presented at the half-yearly meeting on the 24th inst. : In submitting the accounts and balance-sheet of the bank for the half-year ending 31st December last, the di rectors have pleasure in reporting that the pretense in the re-establishment of the business during the last six months has been very satisfactory. A large proportion of their former constituents have re-opened their accounts, and there has been a considerable accession of business from other quarters. The anticipations of the directors as to the sufficiency of the sum set apart as provision for all the casualties of the last summer have not been disappointed ; and the directors have the pleasure of announcing that the available resources of the bank now enable them to offer payment (less interest at Bank rate) to the holders of all outstanding promissory notes, thereby anticipating by several months the time accorded to the bank by the indulgence of its creditors in June last. A reference to the acoounts will show that after payment of all current expenses, the heavy charge of interest on the promissory notes, interest to customers, and rebate of interest on bills on hand, there remains a net profit of 32,1161. Os. 9d. ; from which sum it is proposed to carry to retuned surplus fund 6,5501. Os. 10d, to make a payment of interest to shareholders for the half-year, at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum, free of income tax, which will amount to i6,45Rt. Os. td., to carry forward to next account the balance of 0,107/. 7s. 3d. The reserved surplus fund will, by the addition of six months interest, and the appropriation now recommended, be in creased to 00,0001. The directors again decline to receive any remuneration for their services during the half-year. The directors retiring by rotation are Messrs. John Feirse Kennard, James Alexander Bannerman, Thomas Alen Hankey, Adam Steinmetz Kennard, Frederick Alen Hankey, and William Smith. Of these Messrs. Thomas A. Minicoy and Adam S. Kennard retire voluntarily, the remaining gentlemen being eligible o ff er themselves for re-election. The meeting will likew ise be invited to elect two auditors. Messrs. 'David Chadwick and William Cooper offer themselves for re-election. The interest warrants will be payable en and after Ist February next. - - - The half-yearly meeting of the Great Eastern Railway Company is convened for the 12th of February, at the London Tavern, when a vacancy in the direction, caused by the resignation of Sir E. C. Kerriaon, Bart., M.P., may be filled up by the shareholders. The half-yearly meeting of the North Stafford shire Railway Company is called for the 13th of February, at the London Tavern. The final call of 5/., making 20/. paid, is to be paid on the extension capital guaranteed 41 per cent. of the Great Southern of India Railway Com pany by the Ist of March. A general meeting of the British and Foreign Marine Insurance Company (Limited) is called for the 30th inst., at Liverpool. We are requested to state that Mr. J. H. Craw ford, late of the Bengal civil service, has joined the board of directors of the East India Land Credit and Finance Company. _ . An order was made on Saturday by the Master of the Rolls to wind up the London Offices Company (Limited) under the supervision of the court, re moving one of the liquidators appointed by the oompiny, and appointing Mr. H.
