LAW INTELLIGENCE. (THIS DAY.) COURT OF PROBATE AND DIVORCE. (Before the Judge Ordinary.) win V. wlrr AND KLIWDWORTH. This part-heard case, which was the petition of a music I publisher carrying on business in Regent-street, under the same of 1. I. Ewer and Co., was resumed this morning. The pleas in defence were a denial and recriminatory charges of cruelty and adultery. Mr. Hawkins, qc., and Mr. Keane were for the petitioner; Mr. Kanlake, end Dr. Tristram, for the respondent ; the Queen's Advocate sod Mr. Roll for the co-respondent. Harriet Hazel (the servant called " Ann " in the family) was examined at some length, sod gave similar evidence to that of Sarah Brown, with regard to the close and clandestine terms of intimacy on which the respondents stood to each other. When Mr. Klind worth was iu the house and Mr. Witt came home, witness used to take him (Klindworth) up to her own bedroom. Went with her mistress to Tuobridge Wells. They lodged et StellenberrHouse, which was kept by a Mrs. Cox. Mr. Witt used to come down from Saturday till Monday. Mr. Klindworth also came two or three times &- week, but never while Mr. Witt was there. He used to spend the evemog with the respondent in the drawing-room, which had a bedroom adjoining, and sepa rated from it by folding doors. When he stayed all nightie the house he generally slept in the room over that bedroom ; but he sometimes occupied another. Three times witness slept in the room above the back bedroom. On the first occasion the respondent 'mid, "Ann, as I am not very well, Mr. Klindworth is going to sit up with me to-night." She afterwards told witness to wait up till all the lights were out, and then to go to bed in Mr. Klindworth's room. Went to bed at eleven and left the respondents at that time together in the dining-room. Found Mr. Klindworth in Mrs. Witt's bedroom when witness came down the next morning. It was be who let witness in. The following week the respondent told witness again to sleep in Mr. Klindwortla's bed that night, alleging that he was reading some pretty books to her, and they were so interesting that they wished to sit up and finish them. Found Mr. Kliodworth the nut morning again in her mistress's bedroom. The next week the same thing took place, the respondent on this occasion saying that Mr. Kliodworth was going to pass the night on the sofa lest he should oversleep himself, and be too late for the eight o'clock train the next day. Saw him in the morning washing his bands in her mistress's bedroom. Had twice seen Mr. Klindworth kiss her ' • and her mistress bad once told her that if it bad not been for the persuasion of her friends she should have married him, for she liked him better than she did her busbaod. By Mr. Karslske—Wu dismissed at Tunbridge Wells, because witness had been talking to Mrs. Cox about Mr. Klindworth, and Mrs. Cox had gone up to her mistress and spoken to her about it. The reason the reepoodest alleged for discharging her was that Mrs. Cox had said that she had been beating her baby. That charge, however, was not true. Was confined in Sudbury Workhouse of au illegitimate child on the 9th ult. Had previously been in Westminster Workhouse, and was pasted on from there to Sudbury. At Tunbridge Wells witness generally slept with Mrs. Witt. Never had to sit up with her on account of her Meese. Mr. Witt always slept upstairs when he came down. Could not say whether he did that by Mr. Cloves's advice. Mrs. Cox said that Mr. Klindworth came six or eight times to sleep at her house, and on one other occasion. lo consequence of something said to witness, she one morning placed herself opposite Mrs. Witt's door. Heard Mr. Klindworth unlock Mrs. Witt's bedroom door, and go up stairs. He was dressed but bad his slippers on. When he was halfway upstairs, he turned round and saw witness in the ball. Went into Mrs. Witt's room, and told her that she had beard • great deal from the last witness. The respondent denied everything. Said it was very unpleasant for anything of the kind to take place in the house. Respondent said Mr. Klindworth had only been sitting up to copy some music. The respondent was very angry and said that in consequence of what the servant had said about Mr. Klindworth she should leave immedi ately. She then called the last witness up. She (the ser vant) seemed frightened, and said nothing. Mrs. Witt stated that Mr. Klindworth had given her (the ser vant) half • sovereign to say nothing about his being there. Respondent afterwards told witness that she had telegraphed to Mr. Klindworth to come back the same day ; but be did not return till the next day. The servant was soot away before Mr. Klindworth came down. The respondent said that Mr. Witt's friends were not going to leave her alone, day or night, in order that the girl might not have an opportunity of telling him about Mr. Klindworth. For the first fortnight witness thought that Mr. Klindworth was Mrs. Witt's brother, for the child called him uncle. By Mr. Karslake—Mrs. Witt stayed at witneses for about ten days after the girl was sent away, and witness allowed her daughter—who was 20 years of age—to go with her to town, and to stay with her for six weeks. Mrs. Witt was always unwell when her husband visited her; but she generally appeared better when Mr. Klindworth came. (Laughter.) Mr. Sopwith attended her twice or three times. George Lee, the petitioner's servant lad, gave corrobora tive evidence. Used to take letters to the co-respondent at his house, in Manchester-street, two or three times a-week. Was once sent to the Hare and Houuda, at Hampstead, to fetch a comb, which the respondent had left there, and she said she h►d borrowed from Mr. Xlindworth. She told witaese to say that they had dined in a private room, and had had steaks. tin Cox confirmed her mother's evidence and also that of the servants already examined. patitiamwes seas was not concluded when we went to press.] THE POLICE COURTS. (THIS DAY.) CLERKENWELL. no LOVI OP FINTHY. Panne Turner, • respectable-looking young girl, who seemed to feel her position very acutely, described as a domestic servant, was charged before Mr. D'Eyncourt with stealing 14 pieces of ribbon and one pair of gloves from her employer, Mis. Frances Stanley, milliner and dressmaker, of 43, Great Comm-street, Russell-square. According to the statement of the complainant the pri soner had ally been in her employ • few weeks, having, se she suspected, entered her service by means of a false character. Whilst the prisoner was out on Sunday last, from what came to her knowledge, she went to her bed. room, and between the bed and mattress she found the property produced, which had been stolen from the drawers or from the workroom tables, both being places to which the prisoner had no right to go. When the prisoner returned, she asked her how she became possessed of these goods, but she at first declined to my. On telling her that she would send for • policeman, the prisoner mid that she bad taken them, and that she was very sorry. As a lodger in the house had had her drawers broken open and some money taken, Mrs. Stanley asked her about that, and as she declined to my, gave her one hour to co ns id er a b ou t it, before sending for a police-constable. To prevent her leaving the house, she locked her in the kitchen, but during her temporary gismos the prisoner managed to force the locks, and thus gain access to the front area. She then clambered up the walls and over the area railings, and made her escape. Information was ;PM to the police, and the prisoner was last night found in company with some very low characters. Her parents, who are poor but respectable people, were in a sad way about her, as she hail not been home since she had left her situation. The prisoner Tald - Z;;;;We;pli;or Ty for what she had done, and hoped that the magistrate would take a merciful view of her case. It was her first offence, and she would take rare that it was her last. It was her love of wishing to be dressed " nice " that had caused her to fo rge t herself .- Mr. D'Eyneonrt said he was afraid that the present was not her first offence. It was a serious thing for senants in trust to rob their employers. He then sentenced the prisoner to be imprisoned and kept to bard labour in the House of Correction for four cale nd ar months. The prisoner, who sobbed bitterly, was then removed. WORSHIP-STREET. COWNITTAL OF PRISONERS ON SERIOUS CHARGES. _ _ Gemoe Vincent, a powerful roan, having the appearance of an excavator, was charged with being concerned in vio lently assaulting and stealing from the person of a gentle man named Sparks. Mr. Graves, from the office of Mr. Vann, prosecuted ; and at a former examination it was shown that the prosecutor had been stopped near his residence in Mile End on a Sunday night by two men ; that he was rendered partially insensible by violence, and had Is. tid. stolen from him while lying on the ground, his watch and other monies being in a different part of his dress ; also that the outrage was witnessed bye person named West, who with the prosecutor identified the prisoner as one of the perpetrators, when in custody at the station house several days afterwards oo another charge. The prisoner now produced • woman wbo swore that he was is bed at the time of the robbery, and Mr. West, despite his previous declaration, laid that he believed Prisoner not to be one of the men. This hesitation, it was voloopiently understood, reeolted from fear of threats held out to him. The depositions, however, were com pieted. and the mewed fully committed to Newgate for trial, and while in one of the cells awaiting the arrival of the prison van, • young man, who was locked up in an opposite cell upon some slight charge which simply required teal, overheard a conversation in the former, during which one of the occupants minutely related the manner in which he had accomplished either the robbery in question, or sores other, by pressure of the knuckles under the gullet of the threat. Mark Archer and William Haycock were finally examined upon a charge of violently sailing with intent to rob Edward Mosley sod George Bell. This was another outrage late at night and in the same aelbbourhood as the former. Hr. Mosley was severely in iFeil by blow with a knobb e d s ti c k upon th e h ea d , an d Xr• Ball less so. Fully aotaroittad for trial to Margate. SOUTHWARK. THE TICKILT•O7-LIATZ ETETEM.

The stock markets to-day, though quiet, are decidedly firm. The funds are well sup ported at yesterday's improvement. English railway stocks are likewise strong, with a fresh rise in Great Western. As regards foeeign stocks, there are few movements of interest, in the absence of active transactions. Preparations for Tuesday's settlement have commenced to-day in the share and foreign stock markets. Consols are now quoted 921 to 4, ex div., for money, and 921 to 4, ex div., for the account (Jan. 8). The official business report is as follows : Three per Cent. Consols, for money, 924, 4; ditto for account, 924 ; Three per Cents. Reduced, 92 ; New Three per Cents., 92, ; Bank Stock, 233, 231; India Five per Cent. Stock, 1074, ; ditto Bonds, 235., 265. prem. ; and Exchequer Bills, 11s., 7s. prem. The foreign stock market is inactive to-day, and prices in most instances are without change. Greek and Mexican Bonda are steady. The Turkish Loan of 1854 and the scrip of 1862 are quiet, being quoted, respectively, 831 to 841 and 24 to prem. The Turkish Loan of 1858 and Consolidis have receded per oent., the former being now quoted 691 to 70, and the latter 384 to 1. Russian scrip is quoted 1 die. to par ; Venezuelan, 34 to 24 dis. ; Portuguese, 31 to prem. ; and Peruvian, 11 to 1 die. Transactions are recorded as follows:—Greek, 154, 1 ; ditto Coupons, 61, 4, 6 ; Mexican, 314 ; Peruvian Scrip, 14, 4 dis. ; Portuguese, 1862, 474 ; ditto scrip, 31, 4 prem. ; Russian, 1862, 934, 9 ; Spanish, 54/ ; Turkish, 1858, 694, 70 ; ditto 1862, paid-up scrip, 701, 71, 704 ; Venezuela scrip, 24, 34 din. HALT-PAST Two o'Cuicx. Consols remain quoted 92} to I, ex div., for money, aqd 921 to f, ex div., for the account. It has been notified by the Spanish Financial Commission that the auction of the Foreign Re deemable Debt will take place at Madrid on the 31st inst., and that 8,138,472 reales have been assigned by the government for that purpose. The dividends on the Three per Cent. Consol►dated and Deferred stocks are announced for payment on the let of January. The Teutonia has arrived from New York with 18,0001 in specie for England, and 19,0001. for France. . . . Owing to the announcement that the Indian Council will draw monthly until further notice 1,000,0001. sterling of bills on India, instead of 500,0001. (which supersedes the necessity of sending 500,0001, in silver every month to India), the silver market has become very flat, and the quotation for bars exhibits a downward tendency. The remittances of silver by the next two steamers to the East are expected to show a considerable falling off as compered with recent consignments. As but small supplies, therefore, will be required from the Con tinent, there is little inquiry for gold for transmis sion thither, and the price of American co in has consequently receded lid. per ounce. It is not at all unlikely that a portion of such gold as may be imported will soon begin to find its way to the Bank of England. The tendency of the foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon was rather more in favour of this country. The rates were firm at the following quotations : Amsterdam, 3 mouths, 11,161 to 1 ; ditto, 3 days, ILI4 to 1 ; Rotterdam, 3 =MU, 11.161 to 17 ; Ant werp, 3 months, 25.421 to 71; Hamburg, ma balm, three months, 13.61 to 1 ; Par* 3 days, 25.171 to 221; ditto, 3 months , 25.421 to 71 ; Frankforton-the-Mame, 3 months, 1181 to 1191 ; Pet ers burg (per rouble), 3 months, 35 to ; Vienna, elf. So., 3 months, mo to 20 ; Trieste, eft Go., 3 months, 111.0 to 20 ; Madrid, 3 months, 491 to ; Cadiz, 3 months, 49 to 1 ; Leghorn, 3 months, 25.55 to 60 ; Genoa, 3 months, 25.55 to 60 ; Milan, 3 months, 25.55 to 60 ; Naples, 3 months, 391 to 4 ; Palermo 3 months, 1191 to 4; Marina, 3 months, 1191 to 1 ; brim, 90 days, 52 1 0 t °Porto, 90 days, 5 2 4 to 4. The monthly return of the Bank of France, as made up to Thursday, the 11th of December, shows the following results (the exchange taken at 2M. to the pound) - Coin and bullion Bills discounted Damease 1,520.000 Notes in circulation Private deposits Treasury deposits Advances on public securities Demme 920,000 These changes are of a decidedly favourable cha racter. The decline in the coin and bullion is at last checked, and a recovery of nearly 1,000,0001. sterling has now taken place. The Bank is in a stronger position, the note circulation having fallen off heavily. A decided diminution has at the same time been experienced in the demand for money. It will be remembered that, in January 1861, the old-established house of F. Ede, Son, and Co., of Great Winchester-street, suspended payment with liabilities to the extent of 951,0001. The estates have since been in liquidation, under inspectorship, and payment of 20s. in the pound, on the separate estates of Mr. Francis Ede and Mr. Samuel Napper, is now being made, and a first dividend of 12s. Bd. in the pound on the joint estate will be paid on Wednesday next. A further dividend of at least se. in the pound is expected to be forthcoming. The directors of the Alliance Bank of London and Liverpool (Limited) have made a call of 5/. per share, payable on the 12th January, making 17 1 / 4 per share called up. The committee of the Stock Exchange have ap pointed Thursday next a special settling day in the shares of the Union Bank of England and France, and the Langham Hotel Company. The shares of the former company are to be marked in the official daily list, and those of the latter in that issued twice a week. _ . _ In connexion with a rise of 1 per oent. which took place yesterday in Great Western Railway stook, there was a rumour of the resignation of Mr. Saunders, the secretary.

APPREHENSION OP THE SECRETARY OP THE DONCASTBB BUILDING SOCIETY. Yeatmrday, John Haatie, late secretary of the Doncaster Building Society, was brought up at the Don cuter Borough Police oourt, before William Sheardown, FAct., charged with defrauding the Doncaster Building Society of a large sum of money, amounting to at least 4,0001., and appropriating the name to his own use. Mr. Smith (Messrs. Smith and Atkinson) was instructed to prosecute. The prisoner was undefended. Haiti., who for many yearellisa occupied a respectable position in the town, was the secretary of the Doncaster Building Society, and taking advantage of the great confidence reposed in him be defrauded the society of a sum which was at first supposed to be between 2,7001. and 2,800/., but which has since been found to exceed 4,000 i. The directors decided, with the consent of the shareholders, to accept • bill of assignment from Hastie, and it wee understood that on his signing the deed by which the sum of 2,0001. was obtained, no legal proceedings would be taken. Still further defalcations transpiring, • warrant for his apprehension was taken out, and served upon the prisoner at Hackney, London, as he wax leaving the real duce of his nephew. Mr. Smith called Mr. Thomas Wood, the present secretary of the society, who stated that the defalcations amounted to more than 4,000 i., and he feared that this sum would not cover the loss that the shareholders would sustain. Mr. Smith applied for • remand, which wee agresdto . . The prisoner observed that he had drawn out a statement, which be had handed in to the superintendent of police, Mr. Gregory, and this would, he believed, place his trans actions in • different light to what bad been represented. The prisoner was remanded until Monday. TEE COLLIERY EXPLOSION NEAR BARNSLEY. Yesterday morning, about 8 o'clock, a communi cation was made between the fifth shaft trench that has been dug from the pit mouth and the Damn and Dove canal, and the water was allowed to flow into the workings. When the pit ia at work about 50 cubic yards of water are removed from the low dip workings per day. Pumping having ceased since Monday forenoon, there will be in the lowest part of the pit about 250 cubic yards of water. It is the intention of the engineers to fill up two broad gates, each 30 yards long and Gift. 6in. broad, by 7ft. high, which will give 80,900 cubic feet of space. Of this already 750 ft. are filled by the water accumulating in the mine, and the stream of water is at present running in at the rate of 400 cubic feet per hour. In the space that will be thus sub merged it is believed that no bodice will be found, so that the friends of the deceased men will not have this trouble to aggravate their already deeply wounded feelings. When sufficient water has been run into the pit, the engineers in chaise will take steps to ascertain the state of affairs below, and, if the fire is out, measures will at once be taken to re cover the bodies. The temperature yesterday, in the down cast shaft, at 12 o'clock, was 42 degrees, and in the upeast 55 degrees. There was a small quantity of smoke issuing from the cupola- The relatives of the entombed below ap to have been satisfied with the explanations that have been given of the position of a ff airs, and are awaiting at their home* with what resignation they may the time when it will be possible to recover the bodies. The men who were injured by the explosion are all reported to be progressing favourably. . On Thilnday afternoon a meeting was held in the Na tional Schoolroom, Woreborough Dale, at which a number of the clergy and gentry of the neighbourhood were pre sent. The Rev. N. Benham, incumbent of St. Thom , s's, Woraborougb Dale, was called to the chair. It was re solved, on the motion of Mr. S. J. Cooper, second , 1 by the Rev. J. Newman, " That this meeting desires to ex. peens its deep and heartfelt sympathy with the surviving sufferers at the late awful catastrophe at Edmund's Main colliery, and with the widows, orphans, and relatives of those who have been so suddenly deprived of life, and that, as an expression of such sympathy, a public subscription be immediately set on foot for the relief of such sufferers, in addition to any parochial relief that may be granted by the authorities of the district." The proprietor of the collie), have given 2001., and undertake to defray the coat of the interment of the dead. The President of Liberia arrived at Cape Palmas on the 16th Nov., in the African mail steamer Ethiope. The President landed under a salvo of guns, which was fired from the African mail steamer, which was returned by the Liberian wet schooner Quail and the shore battery. His Excellency, in reply to • deputation which welcomed him on his arrival, spoke highly of the British nation, and expressed himself most grateful for the kind and generous manner in which he bad been treated by the people of Great Britain. From Sierra Leone we learn that his Excellency ]Yajor•General Wensley Blackall, the new governor of Sierra Leone, landed at that place on the 11th of November, and wee duly sworn in on the following day. The mutineers of the Gold Coast Artillery Corps, who were sent to Sierra Leone to be tried by general court martial, were sentenced sa follow. ;—One to be shot at Freetoun, and another to be sent back to Cape Coast Crale, and there to meet with the same fate. The one shot at Sierra Leone was named William Neizer, the ringleader, • bugler, who sounded the assembly in the Castle-yard for his comrades to assemble and attack the fortress and the town. He walked to the fatal spot with the greatest coolness, holding on to the chaplain's hand, and exclaiming, " Now is the appointed time ; now is the day of my salvation." He received the shots in the lower part of the body, and life not being extinct, the provost-marshal stepped forward, sad discharged the contents of • revolver into the unfortu nate man's temples. At Tenerike much distress prevailed in conse quence of the prevalence of yellow fever, which was com mitting great ravages at that place. When the Athenian called off Toned& the captain refused to communicate with the shore. Pratique was refused him at Madeira, and the consequence was that several ladies and gentlemen (pas sengers on board the steamer), who wanted to land, were obliged to come to England at the long of • great deal of time and money. A PASSENGER KILLED AT • RAILWAY STATION. —Yesterday evening au accident of a fatal character oc curred at the New-street Railway Station, Birmingham. The 7 p.m. tram for Derby starts from the Midland platform, at the extreme end of which are the urine's and closets. Just at this point the platform runs down level with the line, and there is a little crossing with rails and • turn-table. The train was last night started • few yards babied this, and when it had moved on and was still going slowly, a man is some way got between the carriages of the train and was run over. The sole parson who saw the acci dent can only say that he saw deceased fall, but whether from the platform or the foot-board of a carriage he cannot say. The only supposition that can be made as to the way in which the accident occurred *that the deceased had gone into the water-closet, and having miscalculated the time, found that when he came out the train was moving, and that he then ran forward, and either stumbled or fell between the carriages, or having taken hold of • carriage, and got on the foot-board, he in some way slipped down. However this may have been, the unfortunate man got under the wheels of the carriages, and the whole of the train passed over him. The body was frightfully mangled and cut, and the neck was dislocated and both arms broken. Death must have been instantaneous. From letters found on the person of deceased it appears that his name is Richard Gibson, and that he is • cattle dealer, living at Castle 13rornwich, to which place he had a railway ticket in his pocket. He is between sixty and seventy years WI BAPTISM or MORMoNB. —IL will scarcely be credited, bet the veracity of our informast—who was an eye-witness to the spectacle—is undoubted, that at this in clement season of the year the Mormons have been baptis ing their disciples in the sea at Hendon. Lut Sunday afternoon, when walking along the beach below the New Gag Works, he came upon a damp and dripping batch of them "Latter Day Saints "—for such, be says, they told hies wee their coned designation, and not Mormons—the name menMeeed by him when he asked one or two of them if they belonged to that body. The dieciplee were fourteen in somber, of both sexes, the men beiug mostly young, and evidently of the elms of unskilled workmen.
