It propounded by Mrs. Burrell (the testator's half. and her husband us executor, and its validity had born tried. On that occasion the case was coni 10.auim,1; hut the present defendants, a nephew and filo., of the deceased, who had not been parties in the rot action, now resisted probate on the ground that th• t. -tato, did nut know and approve of the contents of th• in•trunient. . ; Inc ease had nut made much progress when we went to COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner Winslow.) IN RE 11. W. IL GREEN. The bankrupt, a cleric iu the department of the Royal Eioue, r, at halinburgh, applied for his order of discharge from okbts of 1,1172/. M. Raul y, on his behalf, offered to set aside 50/, a y.. 0 out of his salary of 220/., towards the payment of Las debts, though the creditors were not of a clan for alann much sympathy would be felt, being principally hill discounters. He had engaged with other clerks in mutual accommodation transactions. Mr. IL I:rithtlis and Mr. ehidley, for creditors, urged that at lea 4 in/. a year should be set aside, as the bank , apt had already offered that amount in a deed which lie attempted to cam• through. The ban'trupt said that when that offer was made he cxpected the assistance of some friends in carrying it out. His Honour said he thought 501. was a reasonable offer, hut the bankrupt must also set aside one-third of any in crease of salary he might receive. Order granted on this condition. IN BE H. H. BECKETT. The bankrupt was a solicitor, of Moorgate-street, and of Dovercourt, Laser. He came to the court on his own pe tition. and ascribed his failure to having discounted and :incepted accommodation bills for Mr. Hancock, tim ber merchant, of Moorgate-street. The debts are 1,630/. This was a sitting for examination and discharge, but no accounts had been tiled. Mr. Read, for tile assignees, consented to an adjourn ment, as the bankrupt was suffering from ill-health. He had acted as solicitor to a society for the collection of debts, and i❑ that capacity had deposited the lease of his premises with Mr. Bennett as security for any moneys that might come into his hands. It appeared that there was about 3.10/. in the hands of the bankrupt at the time of the bankruptcy, belonging to Mr. Bennett, who had also had to pay 90/. for rent, and 80/. fur costs—in all about 520/. The lease was said to he of little or no value ; Mr. Bennett offered to abandon his claim, on receiving an assignment of the lease from the assignees, also to bawl over to the estate a certain sum 311 costs due to the bankrupt ; and the tiasignees were disposed to accept those terms, with the sanction of the court. _ The bankrupt, in answer to the court, said he thought the arrangement a very desirable one. His Honour said the a‘signees had better act upon it. Mr. Doyle asked for an allowance to the bankrupt, who, he add, bad rendered great assistance to the arelignees. Mr. Reed said there %I'4 2001. in band, and the assignees were willing to allow the bankrupt 15/. in all. An adjournment was ordered, the bankrupt being directed to furnish an account of his dealings with a trust fund, to which he appeared to be indebted 5001. COURTS OF JUSTICE COMPENSATION COURT.

ASSAULT ON THE MANAGER OP THE QUEER'S CONCERT- RO4lll S.

Sergeant !Turn, T 2 C—T was called to the Hanover *mare Homes thin morning, and heard the defendant told' that he could not be admitted to the ball-room as he was &link. The defendant abused the last witness awl forced his way into the ball-room. The defendant after heing ejected from the hall-room tried to force his way in again and struck and kicked at the witness. I then took him into custody. I lefendant—l am very sorry for what occurred. I was drunk. I had ticket for the ball. Mr. d'Eyneourt —You are described as a clerk. What clerk are you?

They had brooms in their banda and were neer a crossing. Mr. Melfe— Were they sweeping a crossing? Constable —I did not see them sweep any crossing, it was a Sunday evening, and the crossing did not want any sweeping. Theyounger boy—The crossings were dirty when we went there and we had to sweep them. They was clean when the policeman came, but than we'd done it. We kept to our crossing. Policeman—They followed people five or six yards, and laigged of then.. I saw a lady give them a halfpenny. Defen,lant—We thought we might sweep a crossing. Mr. Selfe—And you thought right. You may sweep a crossing, but you must not beg of any one ; but if any one piNuk, to give you azything, well and good —you may take it, and will be doing no harm. When the weather F.

INQUEST.-(THIS DAY.) - - This morning Mr. Humphreys, Middlesex Ls coroner, held an inquiry at the Spotted Dog tavern, as Poplar, relative to the supposed murder of a new-born es male child. whose body had been found, frightfully in. jured, in the Thames. Evidence having been given of the finding of the body 84 of the deceased, sewn up in a rush basket, floating in the IN Thames, near Millwall, Dr. Richard Tabbott, of Limehousc, said that he ill examined the body, and found it to be that of a 1( very large, fully developed male child. It was II wrapped up in a petticoat, part of a fine damask table cloth, and a linen handkerchief, initialled "K. E. B." There was the mark of a severe blow on the right side of the head ; the nose was smashed in, and the right orbit detached and fractured. Under the skin he found blood effused, showing . beyond question that the injuries had been inflicted during life, and the frontal bone was quite crushed in. A fall could not have produced the injunes; repeated blows had apparently been inflicted, and he had no doubt that the child had been murdered. The lungs were fully inflated, and the child had certainly breathed, but he could not undertake to say that before the blows which terminated life were inflicted the child I had, in the legal sense, complete separate existence. The Coroner, in summing up, said that as it could not I be proved that the child had what was in law defined as an independent existence, it would be necessary to return an open verdict, and the police could follow up the matter if any clue could be found. The jury retuned a verdict " That deceased was found I dead in the river, but under what circumstances it came by its death there was not sufficient evidence to prove." WEATHER REPORT.-(THIS DAY.) THURSDAY, THDRUARY 21, S LI. REMARKS : Barometrical pressure has decreased slightly In the north and east. and increased la the south and vont. Temperatures gene rally have risen. The winds on our coasts are still chiefly southerly and westerly, and light. The Empress of Austria, with her children, the Vienna journals state, is to spend a part of the summer in the mountains near Buda. A court official has already arrived in that city, and is engaged in making preparations for her Majesty's arrival. ARREST or PUGILIST% BY A LIVERPOOL MA4IIB - Robertson Gladstone, a local magistrate (brother of the late Chancellor of the Exchequer), was passing Williamson-square, Liverpool, on Tuesday after noon, when he saw two men, savagely fighting. The crowd about were aiding the men when Mr. Gladstone, who is remarkably tall and strong, interfered, collared both the combatants, and no (policeman being near) was taking them to Bridewell when one escaped. Of the other Mr. Gladstone retained a firm hold until he met an offieer, who took him to Bridewell. Yesterday the prisoner, wheat name was Lyms , and who is an outfitter's assista nt, was I brought up and ordered to pay a fine of 10s, and costs. FEMALE EMIGRATION.—Miss Rye has received official notice of the arrival in Melbourne of the ship Red Jacket. The ship was reported clean and in good order throughout. The young people landed in good health, and have expressed themselves satisfied with the treat ment they received during the voyage. On the arrival of the ship at Melbourne 20 of the single girls and all the I married people were sent to the depot at Geelong, 10 to Warrambool, 10 to Belfast, and 10 to Portland. The im migration officer in charge of the Melbourne depot had in- k tended mending 10 also to Port Albert, but at the end of g the second day every girl had been hired at good wages, and there was not one left to send. "Three only out of my 99 girls in this ship," writes Miss Rye, " are reported as persons of bad character (and I have thank Birming ham for two of these), as I find by looking over my hooks that in all three cases I have had evidently false characters given me. I should like it to be distinctly understood that for the future I shall, in similar cams publish the names of the girls and of all persons Wilfully misleading me on this subject. I do not surely ask too much when I ask for honest answers to plain question"). With fair play, and the moral support of trutbfolness in referees, this work may continue, prosper, and be a blessing to thousands of struggling women ; but if employers will falsify facts to suit their own selfish purposes, the sooner I end my la bours the better. We have allowed female emigration to drift into such a hopeless condition that it will only be by • very severe straggle indeed we shall ever be able to re cover our position, and I do implore all persons, and especially all who believe in prevention being bette r cure, to give me all the moral support in their power while I sin trying to solve this problem. My next ship is the Atalanta, and she will leave Plymouth for Melbourne on the 11th of April." RAILWAY ACCIDENT AT BRIGHTON.—About five o'clock yesterday morning, as a goods train was being shuntedinto the Brighton terminus down the steep incline which leads to the low level goods yard, a coupling chain broke, and • number of the loaded trucks and vans, with two b reak vans attached, were separated from the engine which controlled their descent. At the bottom of the goods yard is • large storage shed abutting upon Trafalgar street. The detached portion of the train had acquired extreme velocity before it reached this building, and not withstanding that there was an intervening platform, filled with flour and grain in sacks, the two break vans were dashed completely through the walls and roof of the abed ; the gable and end of the building, the wreck of the platform, and a large number of the grain sacks being thrown into the street with a most alarming crash which roused all the adjacent neighbourhood. One of the vans, embedded in the wreck, overhung the street, and threatenedevery moment to fall ; hut anxiety to know whether any passer by had been crushed prompted most energetio efforts to remove the mass of material in the street. About 8 o'clock it was ascertained that no one bad been crushed, and the van was then allowed to fall into the street, whence it was removed. By the afternoon the thoroughfare was restored. The guard of the train was in one of the two vans which were smashed, but he jumped out when he saw an accident could not be avoided, and thus escaped unhurt. Last year • similar accident happened at the other end of the same shed, and on that °maroon a shop on the opposite side of the street was damaged by one of the trucks being driven into it. On Tuesday afternoon a youth employed at the Brighton ash depot, on the Lewes rosd,was killed by being crushed between the buffers of two trucks which were being loaded in the siding. 11ADINARY SHARDS AND STOCKS. se.

OVIASOL The dealings in public securities to-day are upon a limited scale, and the tendency of the markets is rather unfavouralde. Some additional speculative sales have bt en made, in conse quence of the increased demand yesterday for government bills on !nail, although there is no prospect of say impc.rtaid remit tances of silver being despatched to the Fart in the present state of the exchanges. The reduction in Consols does not exceed 1-14 per cent., but most of the home railway stocks are i lower. South-Eastern is decidedly heavy, and has fallen nearly 1 per cent., owing to a relies:al of specula tive sales. In foreign securities the chief feat•.re is a further important decline in ehilian 'scrip, upon the anticipated issue in this mrket of a fresh supply of stock. There is a fair demand for clisc..unt, brit good three months' bills are still taken at 1 .. .0 cerit. below the Bank nt;uiniiim. The sup:,ly of money in the Stock Exchange has increased, and loans on English government securities are offered f. ehr.rt periods at 1i per cent. Consols are now quoted 902 to for money, and 90 to 91 for the account (March 7). Chilian scrip is heavy, and exh a fresh re duction of per cent. Danubian scrip is while Italian and Mexican Bonds have improved to the same extent. Turkish Bonds of 1865 are _ _ . quoted 301 to ; Greek, 151 to -„ ; Spanish Passive, 22 1 1 to ; ditto Certificates, 14g to„; Italian of 1861, 631 to ; Mexican, 17„ to ; Russian Scrip, 21 to 71 prem. ; Chilian Scrip, lh to 11 die ; and Danubian Scrip, it to :2 prem. American securities and Atlantic cable shares are steady. The 5-20 Bonds are en,ecil 74 to ; Erie Railway shares, 372 to 381 ; Illinois Central, 772 to 78/ ; Anglo-American Telegraph, 152 to ; and Atlantic Telegraph 8 per cent. Preference, 22 to I. International Financial shares are quoted 21 to 21 die. ; London Financial, 18 to 17 dis. ; General Credit, 2} to 2„ die. ; Credit Foncier, 51 to 51 dis. ; National Discount, S; to 1, prem., ex div.; and Hudson's Bay, 16 to 1. Rumours have been circulated that it is the in tention of the Chilian government to raise a further loan in this market, and, as the stn tement in this form is not accurate, although another issue of Chilian government stock is not impro bable, it may be useful if we state the facts of the case as we understand them. It appears that in August last the government negotiated with cer tain bankers of Chili a dollar or internal loan with the faculty to the holders of having the interest and sinking fund of that loan paid in England instead of Chili, upon condition of their receiving a less rate of interest than they would be entitled to in the event of its continuing a dollar loan. The amount of the loan so contracted was equal to about one million sterling, and the bonds are now in the hands of parties who, having given to the government notice that they will exercise their option of converting them into sterling, have a right to sell them, wholly or in part, in the London market, or not, as they may think proper. The precise position of the affair does not seem to have been known here, nor, indeed, to have been definitely settled until after the issue of the recent Chilian Loan in London ; but it is satisfactory to learn that, now that this dollar loan has been turned into the sterling form, arrangements have been made by which, in the event of the bonds in question being i•ffered in the London market, they will be assimilated in price to the price of issue of the late loan ; and that with a view still further to protect the interests of the holders of the scrip of 1866, an option will be re served to them of subscribing preferentially to the bonds referred to. There were no transactions in gold at the Bank yesterday. The amount withdrawn since the date of the last return is 10,0001., while an equal sum has been sent in. The bidding' for bills on India took place yes day at the Bank of England. The proportions allotted were—To Calcutta, 19,78,400 re. ; to Ma dras, 21,600 m. ; and to Bombay,ls,oo,ooors. The minimum price was fixed at Is. 11d. for ill the presidencies. Tenders at that rate on Calcutta and adras will receive about 63 per cent., and on Bombay about 42 per cent. The rate is 1 per cent. less favourable for England than on the last occasion, and there is evidence of an increased de mand for the means of remittance to India. It is stated that the Anglo-American Tele graph Company propose, subject to the consent of the Atlantic Telegraphic Company, to reduce the charge for messages to New York to 5/. for twenty words next month. It is officially announced that the directors of the South Eastern Railway Company will propose, at the forthcoming meeting, to pay a dividend at the rate of 3 per cent. per annum for the half year, against 4 per cent. per annum for the corre sponding period of 1865. Nevertheless the stock rose 11 per cent, yesterday upon purchases to cover previous speculative sales. The Loudon and North Western Railway traffic return shows this week an increase of 3,248!. over the corresponding period of 1866 ; and the Mid land, an increase of 2,1981. The investigation committee of the Atlantic and Great Western Railway have convened a 'fleeting of the bond and debenture holders, creditors, and shareholders, for Tuesday, the sth March. The report of the company is to be issued at the end of the present week. The receipts of the Cape Town Railway and Dock Company for the month of December were 3,4281., against 3,3841. bat year. A ci rcular, of which the following is a copy, has been issued to the shareholders in the Northern Railway Company of Buenos Ayres (Limited) : I send certificates for the amount accrued for interest in respect of the Guaranteed Seven per Cent. shares regis tered in your name, for the half .year ended the :ilst day of December last, subject to the provision of the article's of association. When the directors are empowered to exchange the certificate for a dividend warraut, you will receive notice to that effect. At the meeting yesterday of the Anglo-lonian Steam Navigation Company, the directors report was adopted. The net profit on the year's operations has amounted to 3,024/., and, after deducting the half-yearly dividend to the 30th June last at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum, there remained 2,1861. to be disposed of. Of this amount it was decided to place 2,0001. to the depreciation fund, increasing it to 4,0001., and to carry forward 1861. The annual meeting of the Copenhagen Tramway Company is called for the 6th March, at Copenha gen. The dividend to be proposed is ten rixdollars, or rather more than 11. 2s. per share, being equi valent to about 11 per cent. on the 10/. shares. The new certificates of the English and Foreign Credit Company (Limited) are to be exchanged for the old on and after the Ist prox. Creditors of the Eastern Bengal Tea Company (Limited) are r eq uired to send the particulars of their claims to Mr. F. B. Smart, of Oreshain-street, the liquidator, by the 14th of March. Creditors of the Fresh Provision Preserving Company (Limited) are required to send the parti culars of their claims to Messrs. Kimber and Ellis, of Gresham-house, the solicitors of the voluntary liquidators, by the 15th of March, the 28th of that month havingbeen appointed for adjudicating upon them. The half-yearly meeting of the Tah iti Cotton and Coffee Plantation Company (Limited) is called for the 22nd inst. With reference to the market for American secu rities Messrs. Satterthwaite and Cu. rep,rt as fol lows : The business in the London market for American secu rities during the past week has developed some considerable purchases of United States 5-20 bonds, of the fast issue, on American account ; the demand. however, has been fully supplied from the continent.
