" The bankrupt puts the present value of the Weekly Times at 7,600/. ; but looking at the fact that since Septem ber, 1861, it has been carried on at a lose of about 1. it is difficult to understand how the copyright can be of any value.

THE POLICE COURTS. (THIS DAY.) GUILDHALL. ssltiOtla CHARGE or FORGERY. Edmard Brannen*, described as • bankrupt, lately ear ning on business at 27, Walbrook, as • dealer in sewing machines, was brought up on remand before Alderman Hale, charged with feloniously forginl and uttering • bill of ex. change for 181. odd, with intent to defraud Mears. Pitt Prather; sewing machine manufacturers, of Cleckhe•ton, in Yorkshire. Mr. Benham conducted the prosecution, sod Mr. Holt the defence. leading features of this case have sleekly appeared and may be briefly stated as follows. In the early part of the present year the prisoner was indebted to the prosecutors' firm in the sum of 501., and in Aloe last he applied for an extension of his cre dit, which was acceded to upon his offering two bills for 16/. 10a. and 181.155. tid. Neither of these bills had been paid ou arriving at matu rity, and it was ultimately discovered, that there was no such firm u "W. Peters and C 0.," the acceptors of the In/. bill, known at the a Mous given, which was No. 25, George-street, Commercial-road East. Evidence watt given in support of those facts, and to the effect that there was no such number as 23 in the street named, and that the prhener bad admitted that " Peters and Cu." were purely aresgusnry individuals. 31r. Benham called another witness to complete some of the minor details of the case. Mr. Holt asked if it would alter the magistrate's opinion of thecae° if he called witnesses to prove that there was a person of the name of Peters actually in a:jetsam, and that he imposed upon the prisoner by giving him the bill i% question. Alderman Hale mid not without Peters was forthcoming. Mr. Holt irdd as he could not find Peters be would not trouble the court with evidence. Alderman Hide then committed the prisoner, who said he bad bean swindled, to Newgate for trial. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. THE SECRETARY OP A TRADE SOCIETY CHARGED KITH EMBEZZLEMENT. William' Pike, of 15, Lolsover.rtreet, painter, was charged before Mr. Tyrwbitt on a warrant signed by Mr. Detomer, one of the magistrates of Kent, in which counts he was takeu into custody, for that being the cemetery of the Amal gamated Association of London Onerstive HousepAinters he did embezzle several sums of money received on account of the association. Mr. Faded, of 10, Gray's-inu-square, attended for the prmecution, and said that he bad to charge the prisoner, formerly the secretary of the Amalgamated Association of London Operative House Painters, with receiving several amounts—in all about 161. or 17/.—on account of the society, and not duly accounting for the same, as was his duty. He should only call one witness to-day, a member d the society, and then ask for a remand. In answer to Mr. Tyrwhitt, the solicitor stated that the society was a friendly society, but not enrolled. Robert Shaw, of 18. Huusworth-terrace, Portman-market, now the secretary of the society, said that the society was not an enrolled one, and that Mr. Thomas Adams and others were the trusteca. He was the prment se cretary, and succeeded the prisoner, the lot mar secretary. It was the duty of the prisoner to receive and pa, mono. ou behalf of the socuety. He recollected the prl sopa being sent to Br :glitori to pay the sum of 101. to a branch society there. On the 29th of Apiil prisoner was present at a meeting of the society, and be (witness) charged him, in the presence of the other members, with having received monies from the members of the society, and not accounting for the same, particularly referring to the sum of 31. 12s. ld. He asked the prisoner whether he had really received that sum, and whether he had appropriated it to his own use, and he ad mitted that he had. He also said that the sum of 81. ss. Id., which he had represented as having in hand, he had not tut, but had spent at for his own u• 0, being much pressed. Is answer to Mr. Tyrwbitt, the witness said the sum of 2.1..15. Id. was made cap of small sums. Primate said he had never been duly elected, and be wo ndered he was not bound by the rules of the society, as it was not an enrolled society. Mr. T)rrwhitt said sufficient evidence had been given for a remand, arid remanded the prisoner for a week.

Etches, of Derby, is published in th e Bi rm i ng h am Body Post : " Jeffrey Etches, president of the meeting at Derby .—I owe you many thanks, excel lent friend. not only for having defended before the public conscience in Derby the just aspirationsof the Italian people to brim; about the union of their country, but also for hay img taken the question (diplomatically entangled and em bre fled) of the temporal power of the Pope from its very begiooiog ; that is to say from the day on which the Roman Coostituent Assembly, elected by universal suffrage, voted 113 against 5 voices the perpetual downfall of that monstrous government.

Another collision occurred yesterday morning on the Nortb•Esstern Railway, and was caused, it is fu'ly believed, through sheer negligence. Every second Monday a nettle market is held at Darlington, and on the same day, early in the morning, a cattle train is run from Richmond to Darlington. Between Arlington and Richmond, or be tween Dalton—which is a station about five miles south of Darlington on the main line—and Richmond there is a branch line, perhaps from ten to twelve miles in length. An ordinary train leaves Richmond in the morning at 6.40, and arrives in Darlington at 7.24. Yesterday morning this train overtook the cattle train at Atherick, which is about four miles from Richmond, and panted it. Ai. cording to the regulations laid down by the company, the cattle train ought to have stood for fifteen minutes before it attempted to resume its journey. How long a time it allowed to elapse is not as yet distinctlysaoer• tainable, but at any rate the cattle train overtook tbs pas senger train at Moulton, which is only five or six miles further, and only one station, Scorton, intervening. The passenger train, which consisted of engine and tender, a second-class, a first-class, two third-class, and four or five empty carriages in the rear, was on the point of leaving Moul ton st►tion, when the cattle train rushed up, apparently un seen—the morning being very dense with fog—and ran direct into the hinder carriages of the passenger train. But for the fortunate circumstance of the carriages in the rear being empty the consequences must have been frightful. As it is, they are exceedingly alarming. One youndwoman, who only the moment before had booked to Darlington and taken her seat in one of the carriages, was injured so seriously internally and externally that she 'arrived little more than an hour. Mr. Robinson, solicitor, Richmond, formerly mayor of that ancient borough, sustained a severe cut in the head, and is, we understand, in a precarious state. The engine driver of the passenger train was at the moment of collision leaning over his engine to catch the signal of " All right" from the guard; be Will precipitated against a pile of iron rails and wood sleepers, and, as may be supposed, hurt somewhat seriously. Half a dozen others are injured, but their names and the extent or nature of their injuries have not yet been clearly ascertained. The affair will prove a costly one for the company. The chief cause of the accident doubtless was the dense, thick weather ; but it is imagined that the persons in charge of the passenger train must have loots considerable amount of time on their journeyer tbatthe cattle train started before the 15 minutes had expired. Pld the circumstance which w: tell spinet the company is the fact that the station is without the usual beck signal, to warn approaching trains that the 'inn is obstructed at the station. The crash, we understand, was most violent ; the empty carriages were smashed into bite, and the shrieks were frightful. Medical men from Darlington were speedily on the spot and rendered aid. Mr. Mookman, Mr. Bell, and Mr. Sewell, the chief officials at Darlington, anneal panied by a numerous staff of subordinates, went to the scene of disaster, and succeded in clearing the line in the course of the day. The inquest will, in all probability, re v& the real cause of the unfortunate occurrence. Newcastle and Carlisle Newry& Arrneekdet.. Newre.lranceop.

At a quarter past 7 yesterday morning, a railray collision occurred at the Huddersfield Railway station, but, though attended by some damage to property, it was for tunately unaccompanied by fatal consequences. The colli sion took place between a goods and passenger train. The passenger train had just arrived from Manchester, which place it bad left at 5.45, and was leaving the Huddersfield station at 7.15, on its way to Leeds, when it came in con tact with a goods train, which was approaching the station on the viaduct that leads into the town. It ought to be explained that passenger trains from Manchester generally draw up at the station, on a siding slightly to the south of the main line, and cross the up line to get on to the down line a few yards farther on. The passenger train in ques tion was on the point of crossing the up line at the intersection of the rails, and the goods train, with two engines (the first of which was reversed, the tender being foremost), had reached the same point when the col lision took place. The engine of the passenger train sought the od-side corner of the goods engine and smashed it to pieces, and the front part of the passenger engine was broken in, while the collision brought the passenger train to a sudden stand, and shook the passengers so roughly that many of them were cut and bruised in various parts, although none of them were seriously injured. Traffic on the up line of rails wax obstructed for about an hour. U the pas senger train had been a few yards further on when the colli sion took place, the consequences would most likely have been very serious, as the goods train in that case would have iJD into the carriages. it is said that the goods train bad been signalled to stop till the passenger train bad passed, but the signal was unperceived, in consequence of the dense fag which prevailed at the time.

Two o'CLocL The funds to-day are dull, and a decline of per cent. has taken place. The chief business has con sisted of preparations for Thursday's settlement, but some attention has been directed to the reported conflict between the Austrian and Italian frontier guards. English railway stocks are likewise rather flat, but the reduction in prices does not exceed I per cent., and is not general. As regards the foreign stocks, the tendency of prices, on the whole, is favourable. these shares on the other side is stated to be partly attributable to the arrangements which are being made for the payment of the assessment In the market for bank shares the tendency of prima is stall upwards. The principal inquiries to day were for London and County, Alliance, Char tered Bank of India, Australia, and China, Bank of Hindustan, and the new shares of the Ottoman Bank. The latter have risen to 4 to 4t prem., being strengthened by the expectation of an early tell. The old shares are at 8 to 9 prem., and the difference between the two issues consists exclusively in the fact that the old shares are fully paid up, while the calls have yet to be made on the new. In the mitcellancous market the only alte ration was an improvement in St. Katherine Dock stock. Ocean Marine shares closed to-day at 6J to 7 prem. ; Thames and Mersey, 2ji to prem. ; Universal, 14 to 14 dis. ; North British and Mercan tile, Mita 16; Commercial Union, 1-16 dis. to 1-16 p •em. ; London and Provincial Marine, }to dia. ; London and Colonial Bank, 1} to 1 prem. Standard Bank of British South Africa, 21 to t ' prem. ; Bank of Canada, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick, jto 11 prem. ; Union Bank of Eng land and France, to prem. ; Buenos Ayres Great Southern Railway, I dk. to prem ; Northern of Buenos Ayres Railway, par to prem. ; Metropo litan Cab, Crus hing I prem. ; and Nova Scotia Land and Gold Cron • Company to fprem. The Higb yer has arrived from China with 1,179,686 lbs. of tea, and 136 bales of silk. At Paris this morning, aooording to Mr. Reuter's telegram, the Three per Cent. Rentes opened at 71fr. 30c., but receded to 71fr. 20c.,being, however, per cent better than yesterday. Consols are now quoted 931 to }, both for money and Thursday's settlement. The official business report is as follows :-Three per Cent. Consols, for money, 9 3},1, ; ditto, for account, 93} ; Three per Cents. Reduced, 913,1,1; New Time per Cents., 911, ; Thirty Years' Annuities, 1885, 151 ; Bank Stock, 238 ; India Five per Cent. Stock, 1091, i; ditto Four per Cent.

The Turkish Loan of 1854 is rather lower, at 82} to 83}, while the Bonds of 1858 are steady at 691, to 4, and the scrip of 1862 at } to 3 prem. Turkish Consolidis have risen to 371 to 38. There is also an advance in Equador Bonds. New Granada and Spa nish Passive Bonds continue to meet with attention. The old Venezuelan Bonds are steady, while the scrip of the New Loan shows a trifling recovery from yesterday's fall, being quoted 2 to 21 prem. Portuguese scrip is firm at 21 to 21 premium. Italian Five per Cents. are flat. Transactions are recorded as follows :-Bnsilian Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 1852, 1858, 1860, 951; Equa lor New Consolidated, 17, 1, ex div. ; Egyptian Seven per Cents., second issue, 884, 89 ; Greek, ex Coupons, 151, 16, 161, 4, ; ditto Coupons, 74, 1, 7 ; Italian Five per Cents., 72}, 4 ; ditto Maremmana Railway, 724 ; Mexican Three per Cents., for account, 33/ ; New Granada Two per Cents., 271, 28} ; ditto ex over. due Coupons and Hectares, 101; Portuguese Scrip, 21 pm. ; Russian Five per Cents., 961 ; ditto Three per Cents., 1859, 60} ex div. ; ditto paid-up scrip, 93, 92/ ex div. ; Sardinian Five per Cents., for ac count, 831, 84}, 84.

We are immured, from an excellent source, that the rumour referred to by a contemporary on Saturday, to the effect that a new Turkish Loan of 2,000,000/. sterling is about to be introduced by Messrs. Lafitte, of Paris, on the English market, is without foundation. An instalment of 5 per cent. fell due yesterday on the Portuguese Loan for 5,000,0001. stook. About 20,000 sovereigns were withdrawn from the Bank yesterday for Alexandria, and 15,000 for Oporto. The Magdalena, from Brazil, has arriwzd at Southampton, with 60,0671. in specie. The steamer Ceylon will take to-day (Tues day) 200,3101. in specie for the East, of which 23,5631. is gold and the residue silver. The titulars are annexed, via. : For Alexandria, 19,863/ ; Ceylon, 2481 ; Madras, 38,4521. • Cal cutta, 90,0001. ; Hong Kong, 1,0621. ; Foolehoo foo, 2001. ; and for Shanghae, 50,4851 The failure is announced of Mr. John Walker, a respectable manuacturer, of Bradford, with lia bilities estimated at about 17,0001. This firm must not be confounded with others of the same name. China telegrams state that the settlements in silk were 2,000 bales, and that 10,000 bales were unsold. Prices were higher. At Hong Kong the exchange was 4s. 80. ; and at Shanghae, 6s. 34(1. The Brighton Railway traffic return shows this week an increase of 1,6101., and the South Eastern an increase of 1,9101. The letters of ,allotment of the Standard Bakk of South Africa were all issued on Saturday. We are requested to state that the last day for sending in applications for shares in the British Fire Prevention'and Insurance Company is Tuesday, the 11 inst., for London; and Wednesday, the 12th, for the country. The effect of the exorbitant prices of cotton in discouraging speculation and stimulating the supply from India and elsewhere, if, described as follows in t the circular of Mesrs. Trueman and Rouse : The improvement which we noticed on the Ist ult. as the result of the Co &clarete reverses in Maryland, was not of long duration ; the very heavy arrive's of East India cotton, combined with the minty deliveries,. having after a while completely disheartened speculators, and the sales in Liver pool in the past fortnight have only reached 41,0C3 bales. Prioes of American are almost nominal at a decline of 4d, per lb., the deliveries of this description in the pest four weeks not exceeding 4,030 tales ; East India has declined 21d. to 3d., milt this reduction the trade sad expo. ten buy only for pressing requirements. The stock of ell de scriptions is now 312,660 bales, against 200,560 on the lat ult., and 586,750 last year ; while the quantity now on the way to Liverpool from the East Indies is 176,000 bales against 169,000 last year. High prices are evidently stimu lating supplies from the East, and Egypt and Brasil will also probably tarnish a considerable addition in the coming season. The resolution of the Confederate Coogrees to allow of the male and export of 1,0C3,000 tales to foreign buyers has attracted some attention ; but unless by this resolution the prohibition to trade with New Orleans and other ports in the possession of the Federals be withdrawn, no great amount of cotton is likely to find its way from Southern ports to England, except as heretofore by breaking the blockade. The following is from the monthly silk circular of Messrs. Waithman, Jaoomb, and Hogg, datt.d this day : We have had more than ordinary activity in the silk market during the past month, and prices have experienced an advance of 6d. to ls. per lb. ; this will appear somewhat stram,e in the face of such large settlements from China, but may be attributed to the growing conviction that the ultimate export for the present season will not be excessive. The deliveries for the month, 8,271 bales of China, and 1,388 bales of Japan, show that consumption is progressing on a large scale. Bengal silk is still comparatively neglected. In Italian silk we have no alteratiou. MONDAY Evziixo. Consols, which chisel on Friday both for money and the 6th inst., opened and closed to-day at the same quotation.

The " continuation " on Consols to the 4th December was 1 to 3-16 percent ; 3-16, after allow ing for income tax, is equal to only per cent. per annum, which is the current rate for loans on government securities in the Stock Exchange. The dividend will be deducted from the quotation of Consols for the amount on the ith inst.

EDINBURGH, MONDAY. In the first division of the Court of Session, to day, counsel was beard in the famous Yelverton marriage case, in the form of a reclaiming note, by the pursuer, Mrs. Yelverton, against the judgment of Lord Ardmillan, in the Outer House of Session, on the 3rd of July last, in favour of Major Yelverton. The Solicitor-General opened the case for Theresa Longworth or Yelverton, and addressed the court for hours. He began by referring to the grounds of Lord Ardmillan 's judgment, maintaining that it was founded on • great mass of unfavourable constructions, imputation., sod charges against the pursuers, from which she bad now to defend herself, as well aa to maintain her claim to the wife of the defender. He proceeded to comment upon the views taken by Lord Ardmillan of the correspondence be tween Major Yelverton and Mime Longworth, contending that they were not supported by the correspondence, and that the Lord Ordinary had in various important matters entirely misconceived the MM. The Solicitor• General had not concluded his address when the court adjourned to meet this (Tuesday) morning, when the hearing of the case will be resumed. It may save purchasers some trouble in the removal of their souvenin from the Exhibition building if we state that in all cases they ought to demand a ticket from the exhibitor of whom they purchase, which it is necessary to show on passing out with their goods. Without such a ticket the police have positive orders to let nothing leave the building.
