The a s i s adint Colebrook, who pleaded not guilty, was defended by Mr. L Lewis. from the evidence of several witnesses that i nf ed iteth nit Les went to a man named Charles Swift, Lanna h rilWll sk Batte and ask ed a him to Ca w . pige, he represen ted were right, but ;Z s • little poor, and wanted feeding. Swift ac assepsided Lee to Colebrook'. dairy, *hers he saw tilt = He, however, only bought three, as Co would ' not warr a nt t h. fourth pig, which wee • little " blown." The defendant Lee on eud the pigs to Swift's place in Colebrook'. cart, and k g bl,trouble he received a half-crown. In consequence o f sh e p refusing to eat Swift went to Colebrook, who • to look at them on the following Saturday, but did not. As the pigs became worse Mr. Cross was s aid in to examine them. He found them suffering b um an infectious disease, and on the morning d the 23rd he had them killed and buried. It also s ppeared that a post mortem examination was made, and bosh Mr. Cross and Mr. Gillingham, another veterinary s urgeon, gave their opinion that the particular disease which had attacked the pigs was precisely similar to the cattle plagOo lir. Lewis questioned the two veterinary surgeons as to the time which would elapse before the disease would c h o w itself in pigs, and replied that it would de pend on the constitution of the animal. The opinion of Mr. Cross was that the pigs in question had been suffer lie from the disease for above a fortnight, but that the disease might exist four or five days without its being known. The defence was that Colebrook was ignorant of the pigs being diseased when he sold them. Mr. 'mho= called Mr. Lewis's attention to the orders which did not use the wars" knowledge." Mr. Lewis said it would be extremely hard upon his client to be committed for an offence of which he had not any knowledge. He then cited the case in which Lord Granville was summoned at Edgware, but as he had no knowledge of the cow being diseased he was dismissed. Mr. Ingham thought the defendant Colebrook ought not to be committed u nl ess he had a knowledge that tier pigs were diawed. He was bound to state that he wa not satisfied that he bad the knowledge, and therefore he must aoChhim. were then diamined. THE CONSOLIDATED BANK (LIMITED). MEETING OF MANCHESTER DEPOSITORS. A meeting of customers of the Manchester branch of the Consolidated Bank (Limited), convened by adver tisement, signed " A Creditor," was held yesterday after noon, in the Clarence Hotel, Manchester. There was a pee#Ay numerous attendance, including Mr. De Flinne, the gentleman who had issued the advertisement. On the motion of Mr. Buten, the chair was taken by Mr. Tucous CLIO°. Mr. Ds Fumes, in obedience to the call of the chair man, stated his reasons for calling the meeting. He said his object was to obtain information in regard to the position of the bank. He had called repeatedly at the offices in Pal ma', but though received with the utmost courtesy, he could gain no information. There was, on the part of the officials, every disposition to give him information, but no ability. He called again at the bank on Friday, and than saw a scene which determined him to precipitate matters by calling this meeting. He was talking to one of the young men in the bank, and the manager was speaking So a gentleman at the other end. Evidently it was a very anxious moment ; the gentleman, as he left the bank, seemed in a state of the greatest depression ; perhaps his funds were entirely locked up. As he could obtain no in formation that day, he put the advertisement in Saturday's papers, and at the same time wrote to the Manchester di rectors, stating that the objects he had in view were not hostile, that he desired to call forth an expression of sym pathy and condolence, and a vote of unabated confidence in them ; and, if pract icable, a promise of material support in the formation of a new banking company ; while, on the other band, he wished to elicit all possib le information respecting their common wealth, now so grievously under discount. He, therefore, requested them to further his views by allowing the attendance of a gentleman qualified and authorised to give the meeting the latest particulars which might affect their inte rests. He concluded by informing the directors that the in spiration and responsibility of the advertisement calling the meeting was solely his own. Having read the letter, he asked if any gentleman was present from the bank. (No reply.) Perhaps some one would come later. He bad been informed that the deputy-chairman of this company, who bad represented Manchester in parliament, and to whom they were indebted both for financial and political duties performed on their behalf, was very much cut up by this matter. He wished to pass no censure on anyone ; the directors were now expiating the sins of other delinquents in London, and under these circumstances he begged leave to move, " That this meeting, thoroughly impressed with the conviction that the fall of the Consolidated Bank was u little expected by the Manchester board as by the cus tomers now assembled, desires to express its sympathy and condolence with the said board on the occasion of the ca lamity which has fallen on all in common." He referred to two directors in Manchester, one of whom had bought 750 shares and the other 1,400 a few weeks before the stoppage, as a proof that the Manchester directors had no expectation of the fall of the bank, and that all were in volved in a common loss. Mx. HEATON seconded the motion. Mr. BIRCH conceived that the proper objects of sym pathy in this meeting were the depositors. (Hear, hair.) He wished that Mr. De Flinne's motion had taken a practiced shape, and pointed out some course which would benefit those gentlemen who had given their time to attend this meeting. He thought they should acpoint a sub-committee to wait on the Manchester directors, and obtain the information required, and, if necessary, to enter into communication with the London directors to ascertain what their position was, and when they should be relieved of their present difficulty. He did not believe in a vote of sympathy with the Manchester directors at present. If they had been anything more than mere dummies they should have been able to afford information to callers at the bank. He moved, as an amendment, that a sub-committee be appointed to com municate with the directors, and report the information obtained to a subsequent meeting. Mr. G. W. RICHARDSON seconded the amendment. Mr. DR FLUME explained that the object of his motion was to conciliate the directors, and reiterated his belief that the conduct of the Manchester board had been entirely honourable. Mr. Alderman Mau, said he believed the Manchester directors were all men of honour and integrity—(hear, hear)—sad they had not met to condemn those gentlemen. Had that been the object of the meeting, he would not have given countenance to it. The gentleman who had called the meeting had done the customers of the bank a service, but his proposal at present was premature, and he thought the course proposed by the mover of the amend ment was the right one. He, therefore, supported the amendment. (Cheers.) Mr. PICRSTONE said that he had likewise been unablito obtain any information at the bank beyond the fact that a liquidator had been appointed, and that the bank was to be wound up. He expected that some gentleman would have been present to-day to give them some information. In answer to Mr. SWALLOW, Mr. De FLINNE said he sent the letter be had read to the directors, with his name, but bed received no reply. Mr. BIRCH said, that in moving the amendment, he had no intention to cast any reflection on the Manchester directors—(hear)—but he thought it entirely irrelevant sad out of place, at a meeting called for the purpose of P information, to propose a vote of confidence in them. That might be a proper subject to entertain at some future meeting. (Hear, hear.) The CHAIRMAN having expressed his concurrence in the amendment, it was put to the meeting, and carried with only one dissentient, tho seconder of the original motion withdrawing his support from Mr. De Flinn. and voting fee the amendment. A committee, consisting of the chairman, Alderman Neill, and Messrs. De Flinne, Cooper, Birch, and Cotte rill, was then app o i n t e d ; and a v ote of thanks having hen given to the chairman on the motion of Mr. Birch, the meeting adjourned. A reform meeting was held in Dewsbury last night, under the presidency of the Mayor. The govern ment bills were cordially approved of, and it was unani moutlY resolved, that in the event of the proposed en franchisement of Dewsbury being successful, Mr. E. A. leathsro should be invited to offer himself u the liberal candidate. THE WEATHER AND THE CROPS.—During the Nit week a favourable change has been experienced, sad together with a warmer temperature, and a change in the wind, several refreshing showers have visited us. Storms of thunder and lightning have also prevailed in different districts, though only partially. On Sunday the heat was very great, the sun shining forth with Peat power. The wind, however, has again returned to the cold quarter, viz., to the east. Early on Mon * morning, however, another change took place. The wind veered round to the south and south-west, and several smart showers of rain fell, the prospect of further fall becoming greater as the day advanced. it steady fall of rain—what in old-fashioned phrase zsed to be called " a good ground rain "—is now much Wanted. Vegetation h as considerably checked by the cold easterly wind which has so long prevailed, and the wheats and spring corn are looking yellow tad pinched. The hay crop alto much wants rain, Is the grass has grown but little, and is short both on neadows and uplands. A few days' rain would do an immense deal of good to crops of all descriptions. We are now in the first week of June, and there as not much time to lose, if we are to make up the leeway Wore haytime and harvest. The reports from this hop districts are not very promising. Warm nights as forill U days, and plenty of moisture are much needed crop, which at present does not promise to he very abundant. At this time of year the Planters are always sufficiently sensitive, but we trust that a more abundant crop than they now anticipate will fie their portion—and that the fate of the hop plant this fear will not come to be described in the old lines— " First the flea and then the By, Then the lice—and then I die." — Sussex Advertiser.

An extraordinary meeting of the shareholders MY held at noon, at the London Tavern, Sir B. W. CARDEN in the chair, to take steps for a voluntary winding up and to appoint liquidators. The CHAIRMAN said he had so recently addressed the meeting that it could not be necessary for him to trouble the meeting at any length. He was happy to say since the stoppage of the bank, the liabilities had been reduced by 144 6721. ; and he begged to say further that arrangements had been made by the drawers and the parties to whom credits had been granted to retire, as they became due, the principal portion of the outstanding bills payable. He concluded by moving the following resolution : " That it has been proved to the satisfaction of this meeting that the European Bank (Limited) cannot, by reason of Its liabilities, continue Its busi ness, and that it is advisable to wind up the same vo luntarily under the supervision of the court ; and that Sir 11. W. Carden, Mr. George Brown (of the firm of Morrison, al Dillon, and Co.), and Mfr. Fred. Whiney, be and are 134 hereby appointed liquidators. The resolution having been seconded, Mr. WHINNEY said, in reply to questions, that in the u case of the St. Nasaire Company, the European Bank had l( the nal guarantee, which was said to be exceedingly 1 ( ,of certain gentlemen for 25,0001. It had also the 81 , security of property in Java which was said to have cost Si 166,00 W. last September, and that of the land itself, which warn said to have Coat much more. In all probe- e bility, within the next three months nearly the whole of it the liabilities would have run off. In conclusion, he aaidhe saw no reason whatever to imagine that the total Ices * would be greater than he told the shareholders it would 8 be the other day, namely, from 220,000 1 . to 240,0001. Mr. GEORGIC CARDEN thought that some shareholders 2 ought to be associated with the liquidators. He objected to S their having only rich men to liquidate. Who was " Mr. a George Brown?" [A Voice—" A rich man.") The Sr.carrsaT—He holds 400 shares. (Hear, hear.) I Mr. CARDEN then proceeded, amid much laughter, to s having, as he said, had t s ; trir o rcen . tury pel 't e a :w h a t :Poe t"' The resolution of the Chairman having been carried unanimously, The CHAIRMAN stated that absent proprietors bad en trusted the directors with proxies representing upwards of 2 20,000 shares. It was, in short, impossible for any body 2 of shareholders to have acted more unanimously. lie then I proposed the following :—" That the solicitor be requested to take the necessary steps to obtain the supervision of ti the court." - - a .- -- . The resolution having been seconded, A SI!AREIVIAIER expressed a hops that the clerks would be dealt with liberally'. The CHAIRMAN, after expressing his concurrence in this view, added that he believed a new bank, formed by • union of shareholders in that bank, the Bank of Lon don, the Consolidated Bank, and the English Joint Stock Bank, would prove a satisfactory undertaking, and referred to communications which he had received from various shareholders in favour of this project. In • few days a prospectus would be issued for the purpose of carrying out the scheme. After • short discussion the resolution was adopted. PENINSULAR AND ORIENTAL STEAM NAVIGATION COMPANY.-(THIS DAY.) The half-yearly meeting of the shareholders was held this afternoon, at the OffiCS, Leadenhall-street ; Mr. ARTHUR ANDERSON in the chair. The report, which appeared a short time ago in the Express, having been read by the SECRETARY (Mr. Howell), The CHAIRMAN moved its adoption. He said the inquiry before the House of Commons referred to in the report involved an examination of the manner in which the postal service had been performed by the company's ships. Hs was absent from England at the time when that inquiry took place, but the company suf fered no detriment on that account ; and great credit was due to the secretary (Mr. Howell) for the admirable manner in which he laid the matter before the committee. ' Some members of the committee who were previously rather opposed to the company had their views changed during the progrese of the investigation. He (the chairman) had recently returned from Egypt, and he was happy to state that the Viceroy continued to be most favourably dis posed towards the company. He then referred to various matters of detail in Egypt, tending to show the satisfactory position of the company's affairs in that part of the world. The settlement of the suc cession in the family of the Viceroy must prove beneficial to Egypt. In conclusion, he observed that it would be satisfactory to the proprietors to learn that in these times of financial difficulty, that company had neither any bad debts nor any unrealisable securities. (Cheers.) Admiral COFFIN inquired whether the captain who bad made default in the case of the Jeddo was still in the company's service ? The CHAIRMAN replied that he was not. Admiral COFFIN considered it a great shame that the shareholders should have lost so much through the neglect of captains. He thought that whenever a captain had disobeyed his instructions he should be suspended for six months ; and he would make a motion to that effect. The CHAIRMAN observed that there was no company in the world in which there was more rigid supervision as regarded the navigation of the ships than there was in theirs. It was a rule of the board never to employ a cap tain who had lost a ship ; but with a Beet of sixty vessels they must expect to lose one every year.

THE Aurllommire or " Eccfl Homo."—There is a legend floating about London, that the publisher in- vited sixteen persona to dinner, to meet the author of " Erne Homo , who returned home no wiser than they came. But how much more curious a banquet might bo given if all those to whom the book has been ascribed were invited to meet each other! The dinner-party would include, amongst others, the most celebrated of Roman catholic divines, the most learned of Roman catholic laymen, we know not how many Nonconformist ministers, three Essayists and Reviewers, en Archbishop of York, innumerable young Fellows of Colleges, a Republican Professor, a female novelist, a leading journalist, an Irish historian, a Scottish poet, a Scottish duke, a Master of Trinity, a Dean of Westminster, an Attorney-General, • Poet Laureate, a Chancellor of the Exchequer, a High Church Vice-Chancellor, a law stationer, • chemist, an unknown sea captain, and the Emperor of the French. No " Imaginary Conversations," no " Dialogues of the Dead," no feast at Solomon's House in the New Atlantis, would equal the charm of that surprising entertainment The seal of mystery, however, still remains unbroken, and we earnestly trust that it may be so. In our day, when theological polemics attach so much more to name and station than to doctrine, when respect of persons is so much more powerful than respect of truth, it is doubly important that, at least until the work before us is com pleted, the vultures of party controversy should be kept at bay.—Mactaillan's Magazine for June.

ITALY AND THE CONFERENCE. FLORENCB, Jura 5. The negotiations for a conference h a ve failed, and all probability of ita auembling has, there fore, disappeared. The statement of the Memorial Diptomatigue that Italy, in replying to the invitation for a con %ranee, had proposed that the conference should deliberate on the means for securing and consoli dating the kingdom of Italy, is officially declared to be entirely unfounded. Italy, it is added, is able to secure her own safety, and her national unity does not require consolidation. TURKEY. CONSTANTINOPLE, MAT SI. The firman confirming the Egyptian succeuion to the family of Ismail Pacha in the order of pri mogeniture has been promulgated. MONEY MARKET.-(THIS DAY.) thra o'CLooK. There is a demand to-day for the funds, which have risen i per cent., but moat other securities have experienced a further reduction, owing to an almost general expectation that war will soon break out on the Continent. Foreign bonds are decidedly flat, especially Italian of 1861. English railways and American securities have also given way. Financial shares are quiet, but ;n improvement is observable in Im perial Mercantile and Credit Foncier and Maier. In the market for bank shares, the principal fea- tare is a reduction of 81. in Agra and Maaterman's, the present quotation being 9 to 12, or IG to 13 discount. The transactions, on the whole, are moderate. Preparations for the monthly settle ment to-morrow in Consols partly engage the at- tention of the dealers. The applications for discount continue moderate, and the tendency of rates is downwards. The ge neral quotation for choice bills is 94 to per cent., but some transactions have taken place at a fraction below. It appears that a further sum of 1,200,0001. in gold is now on the way from New York to Europe, including 800,0001. shipped by the steamer City of New York. The bulk is doubtless on English account. It is anticipated that the influx to the Bank of England will continue on a large scale, and that a reduction in the official minimum will soon be announced. Consols are now quoted 8b to 7s, ex div., both for money and to-morrow's settlement, and 851 to 86, ex div., for the new account (July). In the foreign stock market the chief feature is a further fall of 11 per cent. in Italian Bonds of 1861. Spanish Passive have also receded # ; and Turkish of 1865 and Mexican, 1. Turkish _Bonds of 1862 are now quoted 56. to 571 ; ditto of 1865, 2/4 to 291 ; Greek, 11 to ; Spanish Passive, 18 to 1 ; ditto Certificates, 131 to # ; Italian of 1861, 351 to 361 ; Brazilian scrip, 7 to 6 dia. ; and Mexi can, 161 to 17. American securities have declined per cent. 5-20 Bonds are now quoted 631 to 641 ; Erie Rail way shares, 401 to 41.1 ; and Illinois Central, 741 to 751. International Financial shares are now quoted to tf die. ; London Financial, 14 to 13 die.; General Credit, 22 to dis. ; Imperial Mercantile, 91 to 81 dis. ; Credit Foncier, 11 to 1 dis.; Overend, Gurney, and Co., 18 to 16 die. ; and National Discount, 61 to 7 prem. HALF-PART THREE o'CLoox. Consols continue firm, at 85i to ex div., both for money and to-morrow's settlement, and 85i to 86'8., ex div., for the new account. About 120,0001. in gold has been sent into the Bank. At Paris this morning the Three per Cent. Renter opened at 62.60, showing a fresh decline of per cent. No less than 647,0001. in specie arrived yes terday from America ; and in gold was yesterday bought by the Bank, raising the total sent in since the date of the last return to upwards of 900,0001., and rendering it certain that a very material improvement must be shown in the next weekly return, if only by reason of this great influx of gold involving a correspond ing creation of currency. The demand at the Bank of England being only moderate, an expectation is beginning to be enter tained that a reduction in the rate of discount may be looked for next week. The directors will doubtless keep their rate at its present exceptional point until their accounts get into a more satisfac tory position, but, now that the turn has come, their resources may be expected to accumulate rapidly. The quiet condition of the discount market is the more satisfactory because this was the 4th of the month. The numerous bills due yesterday seem to have been very well met. Subjoined is a copy of a private telegram received yesterday from China :—" Latest dates : Hong Kong, May 12, 1866 ; Shanghai, May 5 ; Foo Chow Foo, May 7. Export of tea for the fort night, 1,000,0001b5. Exchange in Hong Kong, 4s. 7d. Freight at Whampoa, 803. to 90s. per ton." We are informed that the official liquidators of the Consolidated Bank (Limited) paid about one million sterling of the assets of that establishment into the Bank of England last week. When such large funds are so readily available, it certainly argues a very anomalous condition of affairs for a bank of such pretensions to stop payment. The Manchester Examiner and Times says that the negotiations which the Manchester directors of the Consolidated Bank were making for a resuscitation of the business there have not proved successful. The following circular hag been addressed by Mr. Henry Kingscote, on " behalf of the committee of shareholders," to the shareholders in Overend, Gurney, and Co. (Limited). The object is, if pos sible, to arrange a reconstruction of the under taking. A similar circular has been sent to the depositors, who are asked to accept debentures bearing interest for one, two, and three years. In the event of their not acceding to this proposal, a voluntary winding up is to be recommended : TO THE SHAREHOLDERS DI OVIREND,GCREET, AND CO. (Lairrili.) London, June 2. Gentlemen,—ln pursuance of the resolutions of the meeting held at the London Tavern on the Zird ult., • copy of which is annexed, I beg to acquaint you that, having secured the tion of some of the share holders, I have p ed to communicate with the directors and liquidators of the company, and with several influential gentlemen, as well shareholders as depositors. I have found that there exists abroad, as there existed at the meeting, a strong desire to see the company recon structed, a deep feeling of its great importance to the mercantile community, and a firm conviction that if it can be re-established, • most valuable business may still be preserved and carried on. For our own parts, after giving our anxious attention to the aubject, we concur in this view, and it is our further opinion that, if such a reconstruction canbeeffected on the 'basiswhich we will proceedto mention, it will a ff ord the beat prospect of asatisfactory li quidation of the oompany's affairs, and the best, or we may perhaps say, the only hope of the shareholders retrieving soy portion of the amount already paid on their shares. It is, however, our duty to point out that a resumption of business can only be rendered possible by the readiness of the shareholders, on the one hand, to provide promptly the necessary capital ; and, on the other, by the forbear ance of the unsecured creditors to press for the immediate payment of their claims. The necessary funds for this purpose oan only be provided in the shape of loan, the constitution of the company not admit- ting of any lacrosse of its capitaL Nadi shareholder would have to advance at intervals a sum equivalent, pro bably, to 101. per share on the numbs: al shares held hi him, and he would, in respect of each payment receive • loan one:Skate Dewing interest, but naktag eitee the de. bantams to be issued to creditors in respect of . their claims. It must be clearly understood that the funds which may be advanced for this are to I t m= solely to the future on the printed of With respect to the unsecured tore, It will be pro posed to them to consent to accept debentures for the amount of their claims, providing for their liquidation with a axed rate of interest at periods of one, two, and three years. Without such additional capital the busi ness could notbe carried on, or indeed recommenced ; and without such forbearance on the part of the unsecured ere &tors, the further amount so paid up would be liable to meet their demands. We do not overlook that there are other difficulties in the way, arising from the.. who are now adding to the embarrassment of the com pany by multiplied proceedings in the Court of Chancery ; but we are of opinion that with such co-opire tion as we have mentioned, a resumption of business is psecticable, and that, freed from the embarrassments which have marred the prosperity of this great concern, a most valuable and lucrative business may still be maintained. We ale strengthened in this view by the evidence which is to be found in the accounts that these embarrassments were due to canoes antecedent to the commencement of busbies by the new company. With the object of elicit , ing the views of the shareholders, as well as those of the I depositors, on the question of resumption, we have thought it desirable to address each class individually, and to request them to forward to us their opinioa in the accompanying form. A meeting for the purpose of voluntary liquidation has been called by th • directors for the 11th instant. At this meeting the questior of resumption or liquidation can be conveniently °maid,. ed and determined but, as many ti the shareholders will probably not atten ti on that occasion, it is in our opinion desirable thus to ascertain as far as possible the opinions of the general body, in order that we may be enabled to report the result, and be guided thereby in the further advice we may have to offer. Yoe this purpose we request you to forward us your reply in the accompanying form, so that it may resell us not later than NVeclier, the etb, as much of detail will remain for us to prepare for the meeting after we receive such answers. In conclusion we may add that should the views of the shareholders be adverse to carrying on the business, we should recommend the adoption of a eolith tary winding-up, as to the prospects of which it will be the duty of the directors to afford you the necessary information.—l sin, gentlemen, your very obedient servant, HENRY KINOSCOTE, On behalf of the Committee of Shareholders. The committee of the Stock Exchange have appointed Thersday, the 7th inst., a special settling day in tho shares of the Central American Association (Limited), which are to be marked in the Twice a 'Week List.
