The total number of guns for which space will lie found in each of these forts will be Set w casettiate ,, , besides ti in turrets, and 20 guns in each fort can Ite concentrated on one point. The works ..t Hyde Sand sad Spit Bank, and that at Gilkicker on the inner line of sea defences, bear upon the anchorage in the event of an enmity jetsdng the above referred to works. At Puckpool, on the shore of the hie of Wight, is a sortie battery bearing on the ancloortge, and the fort at St. I lelen's mienneinils the anchorage there, and in con. junction with the other works the adjacent chore of the 1-le of Wight. The total estimated cost of the Spitheatil and sea defences of the outer line, as detailed in the ache ilule of ISti.). is 9.17.1.10/. ; and, excepting the turrets, the works, if of a graffito constroctiou with iron shields at the embrasures, may be completed for about that sum. An 2".1,1100f. will, however, be required to make the wet ks of an irmildited construction. The ex pendit op to slst lieceinber last was 267,01.17/. ; the lie s, undo-tee of the nun, already expended, are 11'iissi/. The estimate in I Ner:i for the inner sea defences consisting of Gilkicker Battery, Southsea Batteries, and Lumps and East ney batteries, was 105,0001., and, excepting the iron shields and works connected therewith, 118,000/. will probably suffice. The cost of the latter is estimated at flit,ictie. The total estimate for the defences of the Needles Passage, consisting of Hurst Castle and Batteries, tlitf-enil Batteries, Needles Batteries, and Mitherwood and Warden Point Batteries, was in 1865 188,001.111. to& will suffice to meet all payments included in the works. The iron shields will cost about 61,0001. extra, and a further sum of 40,001. will ho required if turrets are added. The estimates for the land defences are not likely, it appears, to be much exceeded. As regards Plymouth, the outer line of sea defences consists of the works at Staildon Point, Picklecombe, and behind the breakwater, bearing respectively on the pas- Lige', at either end of the breakwater, defending the anchorage in the Sound, and protecting the dockyard from bombardment from seaward. The total estimated cost was 2108,000/., and it is expected that this auto will be sufficient, except that the iron shields will c at 1 4,000/. affilitional,and a further sum of 20,000/. will be required if turrets are added on the Breakwater Fort. The inner line of sea defences at Plymouth, including Drake's Island Batteries and Mount Eilgeunibe Battery, will, with the exception of 29,000/. for iron shields, be completed for about the sum of 47,000/. The land defences at Plymouth will, it is expected, be completed within the estimate& The report includes similar statemmts with regard to the defences at Pembroke, Milford Haven, and Portland. The new works for the defence of the Thames are about three miles below Gravesend, at Coalhouse Point, on the loft bank of the river : awl Shornmead and Cliffe Creek, on the right bank. The expenditure upon these defences np to the 31st of December last was 140,000 f., the liabilities, 143,0001. The estimate for the Medway works was 3'29,0031., but it is not probable that they will be completed for less than 391,000/. 'l'he cost of iron shields will be about 80,0001. ; and if turrets are hereafter added on Garrison Point Fort and at Cheney and Queenborough Towers, • further sum of 40,000/. will 111111,0 to be provided in future estimates. No money has yet been voted for the Chatham eastern defence, the estimate for which is 500,0001. The works at Dover recommended by the Defence Com mission are approaching completion. The estimate for them was 278,0001., and they will probably be completed for •K-,,,000/. The works for the defence of Cork Harbour and the naval I . l tAbli.lllllellt at Haulbowline were estimated to cost 159,000/. ; and, pros bled convict labour be not withdrawn or diminished iii str..agth, they will, irrespective of 30,000/. for iron shield. , be completed for that sum. A 811111 of 150,00 M. was included in the schedule of 1861 , and in previ o u s ac t s , f or t h e " purchase of a site for • central arsenal." The proposal was to acquire a tract of land for this purpose at Cannock Chase, but the purchase has not been effected, and it is suggested that the item may be omitted from future schedules. The estimate in foe laictswas 1,080,000/., and it is expected that all expenses under thin herd will be defrayed for 1,115,000/.

Two petitions of creditors which had been presented for a compulsory winding up of this company were withdrawn this morning, as it appeared that the company was pus sesal of very valuable foreign property which would be ruined by a compulsory order. The company is being wound up voluntarily. The Vice.Cliancellor directed that all parties entitled to appear should have their costs paid by the liquidator. Mr. r.dolecutt and Mr. Ellis represented the petitioners; and Mr. E. K. Kaislake, Mr. Buret, and Mr. J. Smith I , Peared fur other creditors; the company was represented by Mr. Wickens.

Chainhers, Q.C., and Mr. Cates appeared for the isAitioner ; Dr. Spinks, Q.C., and Mr. Searle for the re spaulent ; and Dr.Swabry for the co-respondent. This suit, which occupied the court the whole of yester day and part of Wednesday, was resumed this morning. It is a petition by the husband for a dissolution of mar riage on the ground of hi. wife's adultery with the co respondent, and an account of the particulars has already appeared in this journal. Mr. Adams is a picture dealer in King-street, Covent garden, and he married the respondent in 184 X, she being at that time connected with the poses plastiipes in Leicester-I*par*. She had tmulethe 11:mint:ince of Mr. Coulter, a commission agent, at Ramsgate two or thr.•e years ago, and it was alleged that upon more than one occasion she had committed adultery with this man. The husband prayed for sub stantial damages against the co-re•ppondent, who d ented the adultery, and the wife further pleaded that her hus band knew perfectly well that sbe haul committed adul tery with a barrister named Brent, and that he had con nived and condoned her immorality. The evidence on both sides closed yesterday. and to-day was taken up by the addresses of counsel, Dr. Swabey addressing the jury in mitigation of damages, Mr. M. Chambers replying upon the whole case, and the learned judge summing up the evidence. The jury, after a short consultation, returned the fol lowing verdict, " That Mrs. Adams bad committed adul tery with the co-respondent ; that the husband had con• doped that offence ; that ifrs. Adams had committed adultery with Mr. Brent, and that the husband knew it ; and they awarded merely a farthing damages against Coulter." The court accordingly dismissed the husband's petition, and condemned him in both the wife's costs and those of the co-respondent. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. (Before Mr. Commissioner Goulburn.) IN NZ T. BOUFFLER The bankrupt, who described himself as • commission agent, of St. John.street-road, Clerkenwell, came up for examination and discharge. Mr. H. Griffiths opposed for the assignees. He said this was the case of a bankrupt who formerly carried on the business of • boot and shoemaker but had since become a commission agent. He had also been connected with the National Coal Company, the General Exchange lurk, the London Offices Company, the National Contract Company, and a number of other undertakings. The debts and liabilities amounted to 4,:14W., and virtually there were no assets ; under these circumstances the assignees desired the court to order the bankrupt to tile goods, cash, and deficiency accounts. James Cooper (Johnstone, Cooper, Wintle and Evans) appeared as official liquidator of the Gene ral Ex change Bank, creditors for 1,4001. in respect of calls. Mr. Brough also appeared for creditors. He said that the bankrupt had defended an action which had been brought against him for the recovery of 108 f. ; but he was defeated at the trial, and an additional aspen's of ;tif. had been incurred. Immediately after the verdict he pre sented his petition. His Honour—According to the usual formula. (A laugh.) Mr. (trough—ln addition to his other occupations of commission agent and promoter of public companies, the bankrupt was a teetotal lecturer, and it was also his cus tom to let out his premises to different companies, who placed their names over the door. His clients thought the bankrupt ought to file a statement of hie earnings in every way, which would probably be more conveniently included in • property account. Alter hearing Mr. Lewis, for the bankrupt, His Honour directed an adjournment, for the bankrupt to file cash, property, and deficiency accounts. IN RE J. T. HESTER. An immediate order of discharge was granted unopposed to the bankrupt, who was described as formerly of Oxford and since of Hastings, surgeon.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. (THIS DAY.) (Before the Recorler.) CHANGE Or FORGERY. John Folkard, 35, butcher, and Harker Heathrot, 37, were indicted for forgery and uttering an order for the payment of 7/. 188. 9d., with intent to defraud. Mr. Straight conducted the prosecution and Mr. Daly defended the prisoner Folkard. The other prisoner was I not defended by counsel. The pro,ecutors wow Messrs. Greville and Chapman, wholesale meat salesmen in Neagatemeirket, and it appeared that on the 9th of November the two prisoners cone together to their premises, and Folkard, who had been previously known to the final, asked the price of meat, and ultimately bought to the amount of 5/. Os. 4d. On the purchase being completed Folkard directed the other prisoner, He:AM:et, to pay, when the latter handed to Mr. Greville the cheque in question purported to be drawn by one Jones in favour of a Mr. Green on the General Rank of London. Some hesitation was shown by the prosecutor as to the cheque, when Folkard said it was all nght, and that the other prisoner was Mr. Green, to whom he (Folkaril) had sold his business. The cheque way returned after presentation, with a statement that Jones had no account there. The statements made by the pri soners turned out to be false, and they were taken into custody. The jury found both the prisoners Gui/14, and Mr. Straight informed the court that there were two other in dictments against Folkard, by whom many salesmen had been victimised to a large amount by fictitious cheques. The }Weenier remarked that the depositions disclosed that Folkard had systematically carried on these frauds, and the sentence upon him was that he he kept in penal servitude for five years. An to Meatheet, he appeared to have been the mere tool of the other prisoner, and the sen tence upon him was 18 months' imprisonment, with hard labour. THE POLICE COURTS. (THIS DAY. ) ROW-STREET.

MONEY MARKET.-(THIS DAY.) Oars o'Cwal. The amount of business in public securities to day is exceedingly small, and very few changes are observable in prices, notwithstanding the arrival of upwards of 700,0001. in specie and the continued strength of the accounts of the Bank of England. At the same time the spirit of forbearance shown by all political parties leads to the hope that the Reform question may soon meet with a satisfactory settlement. The funds are supported by moderate investments, and are steady, at the closing quotations of yesterday. Some of the foreign bonds are better, especially Creek and Chilian scrip. British railway stocks, however, remain flat, Great Western showing chief depression. In the market for miscellaneous secu rities, Imperial Land of Marseilles have been dealt in at 10 1-16 dia., with 101. paid. There is a good demand for money to-day, and the supply has diminished. A large number of bills will arrive at maturity to-morrow, and a further considerable amount on Monday, the 4th. A g.sxl deal of money is also being temporarily absorbed in the payment of the railway dividends. The charge for good bills is 21 to 21 per cent., and for short advances on stock, n. The steamer Tasmania his arrived from the West Indies with 673,0001. in specie, and the Arago, from New York, with 39,0001., making together 712,0001. Consols are now quoted 91 to i both for money and the ith inst., and 911 to I for the April settlement. Chilian scrip is in good demand, and has im proved 1 per cent. Greek Bonds have also advanced 1, and Turkish of 1865, Spanish Passive, Russian scrip, and Mexican, /. Turkish of 1865 are quoted 31 to ; Greek, 161 to 1 ; Spanish Passive, 221 to 1 ; ditto Certificates, Fti to ; Italian of 1861, 531 to 54 ; Mexican, 171 to / ; Russian Scrip, 21 to 3 prem. ; Chilian Scrip, 21 to 21 dis. ; and Danubian Scrip, 11 to 01 dis. United States 5-20 Bonds and Illinois Central Railway shares have declined 1 to 1 per cent, the present prices being 73 to 1 and 761 to f respec tively, but Erie are unchanged, at 36, to 1. Anglo-American Telegraph shares are quoted 151 to 1, and Atlantic Telegraph 8 per cent. Pre ference, 21 to 1 ; showing no variation.

The crown agents for the colonies invite tenders for 250,000/. of Ceylon Government Six per Cent. Debentures, at the price of 1081. The debentures will be issued in sums of 5001., 3001., 200/., and 100/. each, and the interest commences from the 15th inst. Attention is directed to the state of the Great Western Railway Company's finances, espe cially in view of the issue, just announced, of a further amount of preference stock, and the effect I is that the ordinary stock is now quoted lower than it was some years ago, when the dividend was en tirely suspended. The employment of money in Paris has been an difficult of late, that a considerable amount has been sent here for investment in the best three months' paper, at the low rate of 21 per , cent. The list of applications for the issue of 4,000,000 of florins of obligations by the Dutch-Indian Rail way Company was closed last evening, and we are informed that the subscriptions exceed the total amount. The following relates to the New Granada debt : Mesas. Baring Brothers and Co. have this day received a remittance from the Custom•bouse of Santa Martha, for account of New Granada dividends, of 2,000/. The re mittance by this mail would have been larger but for thy impouibility of obtaining bills either at Santa Martha or Barauquitta.—London, Feb. 28. - - - - - - - A meeting of the bondholders of the Confederate Cotton Loan is convened by the committee for the 6th of March, at 32, Nicholas-lane. The half-yearly dividend of 10s. per cent. which became due on Ecuador Bonds on the lit May, 1865, is advertised as payable on the 15th March. The steamer Rhone, from Brazil for Southamp ton, has arrived at Lisbon, with 44,0041. in specie. The Great Eastern Railway traffic return shows this week an increase of 6581. over the correspond ing period of 1866 ; the Great Northern an in crease of 2,8791. ; the London and South Western an increase of 1,150/. ; the Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire an increase of 1,2151.; the Lan cashire and Yorkshire an increase of 3 ,2491.; the Great Western s decrease of 2821. •, the North Eastern an increase of 3,7331. ; the North British an increase of 1,7541. ; the London, Chatham, and Dover, including the Metropolitan Extension and branches, an increase of 6961. ; the Metropolitan Extension an increase of 1211. ; and the Kent Coast a decrease of 201. _ .. - . At the meeting yesterday of the Imperial Land Company of Marseilles (Limited), Mr. Albert Grant, M.P., in the chair, the directors' report was adopted, an amendment in favour of a committee of investigation being negatived upon a show of hands. The discussion occupied about five hours. The third ordinary general meeting of the India rubber, Gutta Percha, and Telegraph Works Company (Limited) was held yesterday. The chair man, Mr. John Peugh, described very fully the position and prospects of the undertaking, and, after some discussion, the accounts submitted wc•e received and adopted. Before the meeting separated, the chairman expressed a confident hope that when they meet next year the directors will be able toahow a much more satisfactory state ment. _ _ _ _ _ _ . Themeeting of the Leasehold Investment Company took place yesterday, when the report of the direc tors for the past year was adopted, and a dividend of 5 per cent. declared. The meeting of the London District Telegraph Company (Limited) was held yesterday. The state ment accompanying the directors report shows a deficiency, but this result is considered to have arisen from various exceptional causes. New I work has been completed, chiefly for the General Post-office the Metropolitan Fire Brigade, and the London S alvage Corps, representing an income of nearly 4001. per annum ; and the works now await ing completion represent a further income of 700/. per annum. With regard to the expenditure, the directors consider that their anticipations as to the probable decrease in the average cost of mainte nance, consequent on the recent renewals, have been realised. The report was adopted. At the half-yearly meeting of the Lambeth Bridge Company, held yesterday, a dividend was declared at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum, leaving 9501. to be carried over. The directors of the Ceylon Company (Limited) have made a call of 31. per share, on the 12,500 A shares already issued, payable on the Ist April. From the report of the directors of the English and American Bank (Limited), to be presented at the general meeting on the sth March, we extract as follows : • The annexed balance-sheet shows the result of the busi ness of the company for the half-year ending 31st Decem ber, 1866—a period characterised by such complete prostra tion in the commercial world, and such an extraordinary degree of discredit and general distrust, that the directors had to pursue the same conservative policy which regu lated their management of the business during the pre vious half-year. The result is that the entire capital of the bank is invested in perfectly sound and easily negotiable securities,and that a net profit has been realised of 9,14;0/. 13e. Bd., against 5,8421. ga ld. at the 30th of June, 1864, upon an average capital of 189,6911. as compered with 149,8801. in the pre►ious half-year. The directors consi der that this shows a satisfactory degree of progress during a period of unusual difficulties. Including the sum of 12,032/. 175.13. brought forward from the 30th June, 1866, V.

John Cox, secretary, stated that since the court was established seven years ago the members in the order had increased from 168,1000 to 325,000, and it was established all over the globe, and had now started in America, where from the go-ahead character of Brother Jonathan it would rapidly increase. The London United District (of which this court formed a rut) had increased in the same period tram 23,000 to 54,000 in numbers, and from 14,000/. to 48,000/. in funds. During the last twelve months 546 members, and 3:15 members' wives bad died, and the dis trict paid nearly 9,000/. for funeral claims, and 5,000/. for widows' and orphans' pensions yet in the face of these large payments the funds had increased nearly 6,0001. During the late visitation of cholera, which was very fatal in the east of London, where the district had a great number of courts and thousands of members, there had been but 41 members and 25 wives die from the terrible disease, which spoke well for the general good health of the members. The district had given upwards of 300/. to petitions of distressed members, and in some cases allowed them to circulate through the 500 courts belong ing to it ; and the result was that from 30/. to 401. was collected in each case, which would seta good many up in a small way of business. . _ PHARMACEUTICAL LEGISLATION.—The president of the Pharmaceutical Society, Mr. Sandford, announced on Wednesday evening, to a very numerous auditory as. aembled to celebrate an anniversary of the Benevolent Fund, that the prospects of unity have greatly improved among the body of chemists and druggists. Satisfactory terms have been arranged by which the general body of chemists may be allied with the Pharmaceutical Society ; and it is hoped, and anticipated, that this will greatly facilitate the de s ired registration of chemists under parlia mentary authority and their state organisation. It will, at least, withdraw that source of difficulty which arose from in.ernal discord.—British Medial Journal. AN UNMANLY OC/TRAOE.—The conduct of tho students who lately interrupted, in the most unseemly manner, an address by Miss Mary Walker at St. James's ' hall, has already met with the stern reproof for which it calls from the gener►l press. It is necessary that we should add the expression of indignant reprobation on behalf of the profession and the school which they dis graced. Neither argument nor dissertation is needed to point out or to describe the offence. It is self-condemned. The offenders have injured others as well as themselves ; misconduct of the kind inflicts a public humiliation on the body to which they belong. For every reason we hope that we shall never again hear of a similar outrage.— Brifiwl Journal. DEATH PROM LOCKJAW. —Mr. H. Browne, deputy coroner, held an inquest ac the Hospital on Wednesday, respecting the death of William Simpson ' who lived in Gregory-street, Radford. The deceased wee em ployed by Mr. Aston, Raleigh-street, and a fortnight last Saturday be was engaged there in raising a metal casting, weighing four cwt. Through his not properly fastening the chain connected with the windlass round the metal, the Latter fell, and crushed one of his fingers off, and injured another. He had his hand dressed at the Infirmary, and all seemed to be go on well until Saturday, when he complained of stiffness about the jaws, And he was removed to the hospital. He died on Saturday morning. A verdict of "Death from lockjaw "was re turned. EMBEZZLEMENT BY THE CHIEF CLERK OF THE NOTTINGHAM WATEBWOBIts ComPANT. —At the Town Police-court yesterday, Thomas Palethorpe was charged with embezzling 32.. 12s. 9d., the property of the Not tingham Waterworks Company. Detective Langford stated that he apprehended the prisoner yesterday upon the warrant now produced. The warrant was read over 'to the prisoner at the police-station by Inspector Remington. Prisoner on hearing the amount he was charged with embe z zling , said, Is that all?" Mr. Samuel Robinson deposed that un the 28th of September, 184;6, the prisoner was chief clerk and accountant to the Waterworks Company. Re produced a receipt in the prieoner's handwriting. He had seen Mr. Brock, to whom the receipt was given, and the money was paid to the pri soner. The money had not been accounted for to the company. The prisoner was then remanded until Satur day. Mr. M. Gibson, jun., the solicitor for the prosecu tionoras not present,owing to his being abruptly called out of town. It is stated that the prisoner's defalcations' amount to between 7trol. to 8001.—leottinghom Journal. AN ANNUAL FESTIVAL IN OUDE.—For a fort night before, the roads are crowded with families singing religious hymns ws they travel along joyously towards the holy city. On foot, on the backs of elephants, camels, bullocks, buffaloes, horses, ponies, and donkeys, they wander on, sleeping and cooking in a grove, by the side of a well, near the road ; and usually travelling either by moonlight, or in the early morning, or in the evening. No one who has read of the Jews going up annually to their temple at Jerusalem can fail to be struck with the re semblance ; and often and often may the observer see little parties exactly like those figured by the old painters, when they wished to represent the flight of Joseph and his family from Judea to Rgypt—the mother and the little one on an ass, and the father trudging , along, stick in hand, by their tide, the costume of all three precisely similar to that represented in the old paintings. To judge by the numbers visible on the raid, one would suppose the whole population was migrating ; but this is by no means the case. From four to eight hundred thousand may assemble at Ajuilhya, not more. Arrived there, the scene is as that of a gigantic fair. Tents and booths of every description ; animals of all kinds in immense num ber. , from the lordly elephant to the humble donkey ; men, women, and children • thousands of monkeys, for the trees in the neighbourh ood swarm with them ; sellers of cloth of every hue, displaying their wares ; jugglers, mountebanks, and gnome; dirty-looking fakirs with matted hair, mud-daubed, and feces hideous with streaks of paint ; palanquins, and native conveyances of every size and colour—black, red, yellow, blue, green, and white —drawn by buffaloes, or bullocks, or ponies, or donkeys, or horses, or men ; women with red or blue bead-dresses and sheets worn like shawls, and others enveloped in white drapery from heed to foot; men with turbans and head-dressw- of every material, of every size, of every colour; children covered with cloth of gold, or glittering spangles, or party-coloured coats, or else altogether naked ; all these made up a scene of the strangest effect and cha racter, such as, out of India, cannot be seen anywhere. Religion has nominally brought this immense assembly together ; but to judge by the hearty yelling and scream ing, the wrangling, and trafficking, and chaffering that ; goes on, the wordy disputes and shrill clamour, and soft , ogling, and softer interchange of amorous dallia nce amidst the crowd, there is very little religion in the assembly, or I the people who compose it ; far more of worldly thoughts I , and ways of enjoyment and pursuit of pleasure. It is, in ' fact, a sort of saturnalia- Men that have been under re- straint all the year here unburthen themselves of all re- I straint ; women that have been shut up, or strictly watched for many long months, listen to the tender praises of strangers, and, with fluttering hearts, jostle lingeringly through the erowl—fraler's Mopoziae for March.

The report of the Ilirectors of the Surrey C..,,- mercial Dock Company, to be presented the general meeting on the 14th March, recommends that a di % idoisi of 3'. per cent., free of income taa, be declared on the oroinary stock, and on prefer ence stock A, for the six months. The half-yearly meet ing of the Surrey Consuniers Gas Company is called for the 11th of April, n lien a dividend is t. he declared. . . The liquidat.gs of the Umzinto Plantation and Trading Coinpany of Natal (Limited), have ap pointed the 4th March to settle the list of contri butories. The ordinary general meeting of the Central Argentine Railway Company will be held oa the 29th of March.

The Bank, we see, has not yet succeeded in arresting the decline in its discount and loan business. During the week the Bank parted with 30,0001. in gold for exporta tion, and received none front abroad : yet the rzflux of coin from the internal circulation has caused an addition of 76,893/. to the gIIICT.II stock.

Danubian Loan scrip remains dull, at It t. 0/ din. ; and Chilian scrip, at 31 to 22 die. The depreciation in the latter shows the unreasoning state of the public mind, for no one pretends to in sinuate that the dividends on Chilian stocks are one jot less secure than they have ever been. MINES.-(THIS DAY.) Ors o'Cioos. In the mining market to-day the chief feature is a strong demand for Prince of Wales shares, which have experienced a fresh rise, the pre sent price being 2i to M.
