They have the satisfaction of stating that, according to the latest information received from the managers, there were indications of improve ment in commerce generally, the business of the bank being reported as of a safe and healthy cheracter, and that the prospects of the agricultural and pastoial interests were encouraging. The directors propose . that the balance of 27,934/. 9s. rid. be applied as follows, via.

The official .4bendpost returns to the subject of the foreign policy of the government, and says:— " The present government of Austria never stroveto catch public opinion by lofty programmes, but have laid down the preservation of European peace I clearly and precisely as the principle by which they are guided. The approaching assembly of the delegations will afford the latter the best oppor tunity by direct questions of obtaining for them selves and the public all possible explanations as to the intentions of the government." The Austrian Correspondence states that the nomination of Count Mulinen as Extraordinary Ambassador to Switzerland is considered probable. VIENNA, JAI!. 19.

The steamer Celt arrived at Plymouth yesterday afternoon, with mails from Algoa Bay to the 15th I December ; Table Bay, the 19th ; St. Helena, the 27th ; and Ascension, the 31st. The Celt brings 21 passengers, including Mr. Young, Captain Faulkner, and Mr. Reid, of the Livingstone Search Expedition. Mr. Buckley was left behind ill with fever at Capetown. The members of the expedition are satisfied that Dr. Livingstone was not murdered, as the Johanna men reported. Ho did not take the route expected from the Ruvuma River, at about 11 deg. south, along the north coast of Lake Nyassa, in from' 36 deg. to 34 deg. east ; but from the Ruvuma went south, round the south end of Lake Nyiussa, going as far as 14.28 deg. south. Thence he proceeded to the north-west, and was left pursuing that route, either with the view of exploring the west coast of Lake Nyassa, an thus ascertaining : how far it extends north, and then to proceed on to i Lake Tanganyika, or he had gone direct for Tan ganyika and thence down the Nile home. Mataka, Makata, Marenga, and Maksurs, men-S tioned by the Johanna men, were found on the southern route instead of the northern. The expe dition followed Dr. Livingstone up to within a few miles of whore it was reported ho was murdered, and there found that the doctor and his " boys" were ferried over a marshy lake by Mareuga, but the Johanna men under Mama made a detour round the lake, and returned next day to Marenga, say- I ing they had deserted Livingstone, and should re- I turn to the coast, because he was leading them into l a country where they would be murdered by the Merit.. The expedition also had interviews with the native porters who had carried Livingstone's luggage five days' journey further, to Pasombe. Fever still prevailed at Capetown, but was de dining. The Saxon arrived out Dec. 13.

The prisoners wan ironed and given in charge to the London ofteers, who TO moved them from prison, and the party left en Warder I moruing for London. Barrett and O'Neil have been red dent in Glasgow fur a year or two until about tour months ago. Barrett was employed as limper, while O'Neil bad at Ofill time been engaged both in the of of the Cale-' denies and Glasgow and South Western itellways. Utterly, however, he had been canvassing foe orders, or hawking in the tea trade. AFeretaX PLACARD POSTED AT THE MANSION -1101111/1.-011 Saturday afternoon, between 2 and 3 o'clock, a Fenian placard or proclamation was posted 'ln front of the Mansion-house, and within a few of several of the City police, who are l in bly on duty in front of the Mansion-bones. It was not until • crowd which assembled to read this ex , tdipiarY effusion hod caused a stoppage by blocking up timment that the attention of the pollee wen ealled to it. The document consisted of a slip of paper, on the upper portion of which was a very fairly executed pen-and ink sketch of the Irish harp surrounded by shamrocks. ' Over this were the figures ISGS, and on either side " 1. R." lin capitals, and underneath, pertly in ordinary writing and partly in capital letters very well written, the fel flowing: I The Irishmen of America are united ! Irishmen of 'England follow their example! Unite, forward ye tearless eons of Ireland! Stand for the Old rotudry . Oh that to England nailed Ireland should be, Preserve her green flag of liberty. Immediately underneath this a second separate slip of' . paper had been pasted, with the words also written, but in capital letters, nearly an inch high : God save the Green' Several of the readers of this effusion turned it into ridi cule, and others attempted to pull it down, but it was not until the arrival of the constable that it was removed. At this juncture Mr. Sewell, of the Lord Mayor's-office, came upon the scene, and having been shown the paper, which had just been removed. be directed the officer to place it in the blade of Colonel Fraser, the chief superintendent of the City police. ANTI-FENIAN DEMONSTRATION IN WARRINGTON. —Yesterday (Sunday) morning, a numerously attended meeting of the Roman catholic inhabitants of Warrington, both English and Irish, was held in the Old Idusie-hall, B e wsey-street, for the purpose of disclaiming any " con nexion or sympathy with the Fenian, or their wicked designs," and of showing that they were as loyal as any other class of her Majesty's subjects. Tho Rev. J. P. Hdll, Roman catholic priest, presided. The meeting was one of the largest gatherings of catholics ever held in the town of Warrington fee any purpose. The gentian= who is investigating the distress at the Beat-end of London for oar contemporary, the Bperratoe, writes : 101 a tear Ness repliwe 410041aRge — tir — wsii., _ tailed at the shipbuilding yaed of Mara. Green, and after stating my business to Ur. Green (whose name, at my request, I am permitted to um), I asked him to favour me with his 'vision as to the causes of the depression in the shipwrights' trade Mr. Green re plied very nearly in the following terms ;—" The depres sion is not confined to the Thames, or even to the United Kingdom, but is felt more or less ell over the continent and in America. There may have bees less of it in the northern part of the kingdom than here, but that, in my opinion, is owing to the fact that in a time of general depression of • trade • very little thing will turn the soale, and it is possible that the turn was given in favour of the north by the somewhat lower rate of wages there at the time. This, however, is • Milling circumstance, scarcely bearing on the general question. Ido not ascribe anything of the plesent state of trade to the nieu, and iu justice is done to them by any statement to the contrary. We have always found our men treat us fairly. They are, of course, averse to having their wages reduced ; but when we have met them, and pointed out the facts of a case, we have never had to complain that we have not been re sponded to reasonably. I will give you an instance to show you that the men are misrepresented by those who as that they refuse to work for lower than union wages. We lately resolved to lay down a vessel for ourselves, and take our chance of loss with her, it the men would meet us with • ressonible [eduction of wages, as their contribu tion the general risk. We undertook this for the simple purpose of providiage work, and if it entailed lose it was merely giving in labour instead of relief. We called the men together, and stated the matter to them, and they took time to consult their fellow workmen of tie uniou. 'When they retu'ned to us it was to accept the offer, with the fall consent of the union, and the vessel is now going on, tha men working at ie. 6d. a day inetead of 75." I said, " Tien you do not in any way ascribe the present distressed state of the trade to strikes !" Mr. Gm= repliedinaM "I do not; the causes are IIIIIIIIUOUSI, and not easy to determine, but the men are not to blame." Now, this is the opinion of • gentleman whose family has been long and honourably connected with the shipbuilding trade on the Thames, and whose yard is at present, gemmed with what it has been, almost like • city of the , the unemployed men wiindering about in it as if they bad no object in life, end the employed ones only serving to show by the cuutnue what a dismal blight has fallen on • amble trade. Mr. C. Buxton, M.P., lectured at Cromer, on Friday night, on the pan year. He sketched the leading political, social, and physical incidents of IW, dwelling particularly on the progress of events in Franc", Italy, Germany, Russia, and the United States. No one, lie thought, could have failed to see that there had been an accelerated rate of intellectual advance, and that nations were by degrees attaining to a larger and wiser tone of thought. The darkness of stupidity seemed to be slowly lifting from Europe. At home, he considered that the national mind eras being more and more lid te insist that goversineest should be at ease by the peephs end fee the people, and that they should no longer be like children under the care—however wise end good—of others. Upon the whole, although Isli7 had been &year of disappointment and depression, he believed that England was still making ' her way forward to a yet higher and happier career. SCIINTIFIC Ern:CATION IN LI% AltrooL.—Mr. Bernhard Samuelson, MP., attended a private conference on this subject at the Free Public Library and Museum, Liverpool, on Saturday ; Mr. Fitton in the chair. The question of the dearebility of increasing the facilities for scientific education in large towns was freely discussed, and it was generally admitted that, so far as the high schools of Liverpool were concerned, scientific education would receive much more favour if the same university rewards attended its cultivation as were now obtainable by pursuing classical and mathematical studies. CHRISTMAS BENEFACTIONS TO I'OON CLERGY NRN.—The Governors of the Corporation of the Sons of the Clergy held their third meeting this season on Saturday lest, at li the annua l No. 2, Rioumebury-plam, W.C., to distribute the annual income co certain funds for the benefit of poor curates and other clergymen, and their widows and families. The governors attending ware the three treasurers, Mr. Alderman Copeland the Rev. Dr. Vivian, end Mr . Pownall, the Revs. W. . 1. Crichton and Daniel Moore, and Canons Jennings and Meleill, and Masers. G. C. Capper, J. It. Kenyon, tt.C., J. W. Thrupp, Thos. Tilson, J. Some, J. E. Johnson, it Baggalley, and C. Hodgson. The total sum given away was 2,8041., viz., to 106 clergymen, 1,4731. ; to 43 widows and !aged angle daughters, VOL ; and to 10 orphans or other children of clergymen, for education or =tete, km, 1,0311. In May next the governors will fill up the vacancies which have occurred daring the past year in their lists of widow and daughter pensioners, numbering in all 712, and in June will be distributed the midsummer benefactions for clergymen with not less than three chil dren. The governors meet, however, monthly for the consideration of special and urgent caws. The funds are administered without reference to locality, personal influence, or party views in the church. T he only pante to which the governors direct their attention are the personal worth and ueuessity of the applicants ; and when these are established, assistance is given tempo rarily or permanently *wording to the age, income , number of children, and other circumstances of each ease. The corporation received its charter from Charles 11., and dur ing the long interval which has since elapsed has become possessed of considerable funds, entrusted to its Charge by benevolent persons in sueosesive generations who have witnessed the privations of the poorer clergy ; but it is obvious in the present times, when the numer of =ruin and scantily-endowed benefices is rapidly increasing, the number of applications for assistance from the corporation most also greatly increase, and unless the funds of the society are proportionately augmented, they must soon be come very inadequate to meet the pressing demands made upon them by one of the moat neonate= and ill-paid claims of the community. Ruttovar. or Cnatirlit-Hourin SaroOt.—Thenale and =wafer of the present wawa-boom of Charter-house having recently been effected by the governors to the Masters and Wardens of the Merchant Taylors' Company, the work of demolition and transformation of this ancient foundation has already commenced. The Loge square grase-plot, called the " Under-Green," from its being the exclusive property of the " linden," bounded by Wilder neeerow and Goawall-street, has a hoarding extending the entire length of the playground and enclosing a large portion of the land, as the sits of two blocks of buildings intended for dwelling-bosses and shops fronting the above thoroughfares. The " llpper•Green," where the cricket nantelete IMO west to be played , is likewise doomed to undone great changes sad altsnitisne, previous to the transfecence of M er chant Tellers' a 06001 to the locality. On Saturday bet the Registrar of the Chelms ford County Court held • itttog for she examination of debtors then detained in the Ibex County Gaol, when amongst thaws who presented themselves for examinatimi ;ratir own petitions te he adjudicated banksuptin was Griggs, the Font women who, at the beginning of bat year, was the victim el what sees the popularly known as the Buckhnrat-hill tragedy. The builtrupt is only 18 years of age. The warrant explained that she was detained in custody te satisfy a claim by the crown of 401., the amount of recognisance' entered into by her to appear and prosecute her would-be assassin, and she was arrested '• by order of the Barons of the Queen's lixolieqner be- cause she did not appear . at the Central Criminal Court to prefer • bill of indictment, and prosecute the law with effect against Frederick Alexander Watkins, for felony, as she was bound to do by her recog nisance." The Registrar, after expressing a doubt as to his ability to deal with the ease, proceeded to put some questions to the debtor which she answered to the following effect, the leading circumstances being no doubt, in the recollection of our readers :— She stated no her father is by trade a well sinker, at BuckhunitAW, and be is poor in worldly circumstances. She has no sisters, but ham one brother, and until she was 16 years of agagee she was io the habit of going to school with tolerable She will not be in Flan of age natal the 3rd of April next, but when she was 16 years of age, she made the &imagina -1 tance of Fredrick Alamein:tar Watkins, and was engaged to be seateleci OrMiloolllgrermunersurvor sew mum; sans ow wwww regularly to see her after that time. When the child was about three months old be milled upon her one evening, and they went out for a wall( together. In the course of their ramble they had a dispute, and be stabbed her with a dagger in 13 places, leaving her for dead on the ground. In the last wound which he inflicted he left the dagger sticking, and she was told but for that circumstance she must have bled to death. After Watkins had left her she returned to consciousness, and wade her way for a few yards in the direction of home, but was unable to proceed far. There were two calves in the field where the attempted murder was committed, and they followed her to the place where she fell the second time. When she fell down the two calves lay down one on each side of her, and their warmth kept heat in her, or she must have du d from tke cold of the night and loss of blood. She •am tumid in that condition on toe following morning. The reason why she did not appear to prosecute was because she thought that, without her evidewe Watkins would not be convicted, although she had de posed to the facts when it was sup posed she was dying. She had promised in a letter written to Watkins after his arrest that she would remain with his parents until he was set at liberty, and then they would be married. She was not afraid to marry him after what he haul done to her. She could not tell why he had acted so cruelly to her, for she had never refused to marry him, or giv.ii him cause for jealousy. She was with his father, who is a jeweller in London, at the time of the trial, awl she went abroad, but weld not say where she went to. Watkins was convicted of attempting to murder her, and sentenced to 20 years' penal servitude. Sbe had never been a trader, nor had she carried on any business of any kind, having lived with her father all her life until this occurred. The Registrar said that as she was not a trailer, he could not deal with the petition at present, and sa far as be was concerned she would have to remain iu gaol until March neat, but she , would wane before him as the February sitting, and he would then see what could be done for her. SINGULAR AcCIDENT IN THE HUNTINO FIELD. —A singular accident happeued to Mr. Richard Hereford, of Suf ton Court, a well-known and popular member of the Herefordshire Hunt, while out with the hounds on Thursday. Mr. Hereford was Minis through a gateway, when, in pealing a lad nu a puny, the bridle of the latter caught hi one of Mr. Hereford's stirrup-leathern. Mr. Hereford's horse plunged and reared in sii violent a almo ner as to break the stirrup-leather, and Mr. Hereford was thrown, the horse trampling upon him as it broke away. Mr. Hereford was removed to Sutton Court as speedily es possible, and on it was found that, in addition to several cuts and bruises, One of his ribs was fractured. In reply to the latest inquiries made, Mr. I lereford was reported to be progressing favourably. The boy who was the innocent cause of the accident managed to keep his seat on the pony, and though placed for some women's in ® perilous position by the rearing of the horse, he finally eacped without injury. THE WRECK 01 TUE FAERIL Qt* KEN. —TIIO decision of the court o f( inquiry era given by Mr. Ratites en fiaturday at the Lffeipoot court. He said i—" In this case the court feels bound to pronouuee the master in default. The loss of the ship may be ascribed to the same causes which have led to so many wrecks of vessels out ward bound from this port on the mast of lrebuid. The master stood in towards the land for seven hours, and took no cast of the lead. Had he done so an hour before the ship struck—a precaution which the question of the mate might well have suggested to him—he would have been warned of approaching danger, an.l a careful reference to the chart would have confirmed him in this conclusion. Under these circumstances the judgment of the court is that the certificate of Mr. Joseph Pearson be and hereby is suspended fur twelve calendar months from this date, January lath, 1868." SI:iirEiTTRD MUTINY AND Mt• twee. —The ship Woodstock, of Hull, was reported wrecked about three weeks since at Manche &Epic ; that ei,,lit or nine men were drowned, including the captain and two mates ; and that the remainder had saved themselves on tome timber, bet were badly frozen. From the following letter it will be oleo that the captain's body has been recovered, and that Mall probability a oral murder has been committed. The sermon will, of course be detained and e xamined, in order, if possible, to elicit some information regarding this unfortunate affair. It is very evident that a mutiny hail broken out, and that the ship was lost in consequence. " Fox River, Dec. 16, lti67. Wm.

The Woodstock was a Hull ship, belonging to Messrs. John Hilton and U.., of High-street.

The captain shipped a young fellow at Liverpool, under the name of Thomas Brown ' as a seaman, sad atter serving for a considerable time on bosrd the ship it was only yesterday discovered that he was a woman. She stated that she left her home at Aberdeen at fourteen yea* of ago through the ill-treatment of a stepmother, sad having procured boy's clothing west to sea. She con trived to preserve the secret of her sex for five years, and pmforosed the duty of a seaman remarkably well, taking her torn at the wheel, going aloft to furl royals, and was quit, m „,‘,.rt i n the nicer details of the profession. The captain (Mr. Litter), on becoming acquainted with the tart of his having a woman on board, was perforce com pelled to part with her, and moordingly he took her to the acting onset magistrate, on Dec. 1.1, at the Fort Polioe court, to ask his advice. -At the suggestion of his worship, with the kind consent of Mr. Bickers, the city missionary, she was banded over to that gentleman, who offered to look after her until she could be provided with pump home, or some employment suited to her sex sh ou ld be ob tained. The captain seemed rather loath to part with the daughter of Neptune. He gave her an excellent charm ter. and mid that she was of • quiet, retiring disposition, and at the same time was one of the smartest hands in the ship. The poor girl was very mach chagrined at the discovery of her sex, and seemed very mach abashed when questioned as to her past history. Itisotelrosed to get up a subscription for r her. It is not to make a heroine of the young women, but, over looking the peculiar eccentricity which has brought her before the public, it is undeniable that she has exhibited great pluck, spirit, endurance, independence, self-desist, and sel,-restraint for • long period of time, and under-very !Iliac circumstances. On this account.anst that she is fax from home and from friends, it is proposed to bad her • moderato wardrobe, and such a puree as will give her the chance of • new career in honour, having re mid to her capabilities arid station in life. — Tines of Dee. 28.
