when the prosecutor wee brought in charged with robbing the prisoner of 41. 4a. After hearing his st►tement he declined to Mks the charge. As soon as he told the prisoner so he said he would have his revenge. He would do some thing to make them startled. Witness asked him what be means, when he replied, " Ob. never mind ; you'll soon see all about that," and be left the statiou•house. The mammy here said that the prosecutor must have robbed him, sa no one else could have got into the room. He denied using the knife. Mr. Woolrych remanded Lim for further evidence. THE PRIGHTPUL ACCIDENT ON THE LONDON. CHATHAM AND DOVER RAILWAY, AT BECKENHAM. LATEST PARTICULABIi.--(THIS DAY.) BECKENHAM, MONDAY, 12 o'oLocx. Upon visiting the scene of this catastrophe this morning large numbers of men were found to be at work endeavouring to remove the fallen bridge and train, and to extricate the remains of the unfortunate stoker who was creaked to death between the engine and tender. So great is the mass of ruin under which the poor fellow lies buried, that his body caneot be recovered before night. The stream into which the bridge and train fell 11 named the Chaffinger, and is the boundary between the counties of Surrey and Kest. It runs into the Ravensbourne, the over flow of which river at Lewisham on Saturday caused such alarm and destruction of property in that locality. At the point where the railway crossed Chaffinger the stream is about 40 feet in width. The remains of the broken girders of the bridge and the debris of the train form a dam across the stream, and are piled to a height greater than that of the level of the bridge before its fall. At the bottom of all lies the engine Taciter—a machine of unusual sine and great power. It if on its side, and is a complete wreck. It is considered a fortunate chance that it did not explode, and that it did not do so is accounted for by the supposition that as it was pre cipitated through the air the boiler was emptied. Tae fire in the furnace, however, continued alight until it burnt itself out, and so destroyed the iron of the boiler. The trucks were smashed up into planks for the most part, but those which ran on to the heap of ruins after the bed of the stream had become filled, were not so much damaged. When the bridge gave way, and the train fell over, the engine caught the telegraph wires and dragged than down into the stream, completely cutting off telegraphic commit nioation between Beckenham and the neighbouring station. This accident nearly involved serial. consequeeces, as the train next due after the goods train was the mail train, and owing to the destruction of the telegraph it was only with the utmost difficulty that by means of measenpre and danger signals the mail was warned of the danger in its path. Sir Morton Peto, the contractor, Mr. Martin, locomotive superintendent, and Mr. Bishop, one of the engineers of the company visited the scene of the accident this morning , end made a careful examination of the pins, bc., of the fallen bridge. Large crowds of persons have been attracted to the spot by a natural curiosity, and Inspector Unroll and a large body of pollee are on the ground to keep order and to pre vent interference with the proceedings of the workmen. The name of the fireman has been ascertained to be John Masted. He entered the employ of the cowpony on Monday last. His father and sister have come up from Whitstable to be present at the recovery of his body from underneath the ruins. The passengers by the up and down trains have to get out of their carriages and walk past the scene of the occurrence to the trains in waiting beyond. During the whole of the night large fires were burning for the convenience of the men and police engaged in watching the luggage and other property which lies scattered in every direction about the fields. GREAT INUNDATION AT WINDSOR. (THIS DAY.) WINDSOR. MONDAY. This morning, for the lest few hours, the Thames has been rising very rapidly, and an immense body of water, vastly increased by the floods from the westward, is now pouring over the land in the vicinity of Windsor and Eton, submerging in its irresistible course many hundred Sere' of the adiacent land, meadows, and fields. At the time of writing this despatch the floods had inundated tke north-western suburbs of Windsor. The whole of the fields crossed by the Great Western Railway viaduct, and known as the Goswells, being laid under water, which latter reached to the backs of the houses nearly as far ea Glower. The long beck gardens in the rear of the houses and shops on the west aide of Thamessteet, the principal thoroughfare in the royal borough, were completely covered. Opposite on the Eton side, or north bank of the river, matters are even worse, the whole of the "Braces" and land between the hanky of the horses on the west side of Eton and the Great Western Railway being submerged,and converted into& large lake which extends from Windsor to the Rev. S. Hawtrey's Mathematical Schools at Eton College. At the latter place the water is rushing through Banispool-bridge in torrents, and meeting over the grounds at the rear of tho outbuild ings, has, in its onward progress back to the Thames, swamped the land mann the river's bank at the Piei;na Fields," and then nearly inundated the Home-park, be tween the South Western Railway-bridge and that at the Datchet-road. Standing on the North-terrace of Windsor Castle the meandering course of the Thames from Maidenhead to Staines presents the aspect of a succession of inland lakes in consequence of the greet quantity of land submerged in this district. At Wraysbury, Egham Meads, and Staines, the inundation is very extensive, and should the water still rise the damage to property upon the banks of the river at Windsor and elsewhere moat be great. Punts are being used in the western suburbs of Windsor and Eton, the flood having partly cut off communication. It is years since such an inundation was witnessed here.

UNION BANK Or AUBTRAZJA.-(THIS DAY.) The half-yearly meeting of the proprietors was held at 1 o'clock at the bank, Old Broad-street, Mr. W. FANNING in the chair. The report said that though the diminution of profit anticipated at the last meeting had taken place, the board considered the result shown in the balance•sheet satis factory. The profits of the balf•year enabled the directors to declare • dividend of 21. 2s. 6d. per share, free of income tax. The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report and balance-sheet, observed that adequate provision bad been made for all bad and doubtful debts. Consi dering the causes which had been in operation, it was not surprising that there was a falling off of half per cont. in the dividend ; but the company occupied a field in which it might reasonably hope for the encases to which it had been accustomed. (Hear, hear.) He could promise that six months hence a statement would be laid before the proprietors which would meet all their reasonable expectations. (Cheers.) Mr. WILKINSON thought the dividend should have been rather lower, three-quarters of a million of capital having been unemployed during last half year. It reply toe question respecting the defslcation of Mr. Fletcher, The CSAIRNIAN stated that the board had the highest legal opinion that the company was not liable in respect of that defslcatioo, and the board meant to defend it against any proceedings. (Hear, hear.) The report and balance-sheet were adopted, and Mr. E. P. W. Miles was afterwards elected a director. Mr. Barker sentenced the defendants to 14 days' hard Wear. end directed the children to be taken to the St. lams Workhouse. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. • REMORSEFUL THIEF.

All other kin& were very dull, at barely late rates. The show of foreign wheat was about an average. For all kinds the demand was in a sluggish state ; nevertheless, the rates current on this day se'nnight were supported. Only a moderate supply of both English and foreign barley was on sale ; yet all kihds moved off slowly, at last week's currency. We have to report a dull sale for malt, on former terms. The supply was seasonably good. With oats we were but moderately supplied. On the whole the oat trade was firm, Mien quotations, to, in some instances, a slight advance. The male for beans was somewhat firm at the late decline in the quotations. Peas were very dull, but not lower is Both English and foreign flour moved off slowly at piles currencies.

A SINGULAR MARRIAGE.—It in an old, and no less a trite saying. that truth is stranger than fiction, and I the maxim was illustrated by a somewhat ill-assorted marriage which took place on Thursday last between a widow, who his seen nearly three score summers. and a stripling of about 24. The lady. who resides in a fashion. able suburb at the south end of Liverpool, is a widow of highly respectable connexions, and has nine children, most of whom have arrived at the age of maturity. As we have already stated, Thursday last was fixed upon for the nuptials, but about half an hour before the time when the parties were to repair to church, a hearse, containing a coffin, together with three mourning coaches, were driven up to the lady's residence. A knock at the door was answered, when the parties in charge of the hearse proceeded to deliver the coffin, which they stated was for the dead body of Mrs. —. They were, however, informed that she was not dead, sad the appearance of Mrs. herself, who was then dressing, in order to pro osed to chunk for the wedding, testified to the feat . that she was neither dead nor in artictdo mortis. The parties, however, demanded the charges, amounting to 25d.. and, as a deagresable crowd was collecting, the money was paid, and the coffin having been replaced in the beam, the sombre conveyance moved off. In less than half an hoes after their departure a train of gaily decorated wedding carriages wart driven up to the door, sad the supposed dead widow was driven off to church, in company with the juve- I ails bridegroom, where the rnardes• ceremony was per r formed, ,in spite of the °hostiles whit* bad lees offered by • the young members of the bride's famtly.Lieerpoof Attica.

Prices generally, however, show firmness. The English funds are unaltered for money, but have improved per cent. for the account.

The discount market was again quiet on Saturday, with a large supply of money, derived partly from the payment of the dividends, but, though the rate for the best three months bills did not exceed i 1 to 7f per cent., being to below the minimum at the Bank of England, a moderate amount of business was transacted at that establishment Money is so plentiful that the rates would probably decline rapidly from their present exorbitant point, were it not for the dulness of the exchanges, and for the constant dread which prevails that the withdrawal of only one or two hundred thousand pounds mare gold would be immediately followed by a fresh advance in the Bank rate. About 5,000!. in gold was sent into the Bank on Saturday. The remittances of specie from the United States to this country continue very limited, the total by the two steamers which have just arrived being only I,IBW. The simple explanation appears to be that, owing to the recent large exports of cotton, of public securities, and of other commodities from America, there is at present no balance against that country on its transactions with us. An extraordinary general meeting of the Londe'', Brighton, and South Coast Railway Company is called for the 29th instant, to authorise the raising of additional capital.
