CAUTION TO URRISHOP-KIJIPZI2. 1030 C Hall, landlord of the Sportsman beerhouse in Boundary-street, Shoreditch ; John Richards, landlord of the Garibaldi beerhouse, in Old Nichol-atm*, Bethnal green ; and Julius Fi-iedleades, of the Red Lion beerhouse in Slater-street, Bethnal-green, answered to summonses wherein they were charged with having sold beer by retail after • conviction that disqualified them from so selling. The pro ce edings appeared to excite great interest, but the facts were simply these .: — Mr. Inspector Broad, H division, proved that on the 26th of April last the three defendants had been taken before the ma gistrates at Bow-street by direction of the excise autho litice and charged with selling spirits on the premises i s question, they not being duly licensed for the same. The facts were fully proved, and a penalty of 121. 10a. in flicted in each instance. The adjudication also prohibited them from again dealing in the sale of beer under the powers of the 3rd and 4th of Viet., which they, having been long in the trade, must have besn well acquainted with. Each came was then formally proved by the inspector, and each defendant expressed regret. Hall said he had arted with the busines. Richards end that be was perfectly unconscious of having Infringed the act of parliament; and Mr. Wontner, for him urged that he was waiting an answer from the excise authorities to an appeal he had made for clemency and a renewal of his license. Inspector Broad assured the magistrate that the excise had not power to grant such application. His Worship observed that so stringent an act was well worthy the attention of beereellers, and doubtless very im portant to publicans,Defendants were ed nominal amounts and expenses. WESTMINSTER.

Mr. Selfe—Have yon got any horse hair shirts in St. Lake's workhouse ? Porter—Not that I am aware of, your worship. Defendant—l tore my clothing up because it was so dirty, and I wanted fresh.

The tendency of the discount market continues favourable, and it is expected that a large amount of the gold which has arrived from New York will be sent into the Bank during the present week. Nevertheless, some stocks and shares have again given way, owing to an almost general belief that war will not be averted by the Conference. Foreign bonds have been pressed for sale, and have nearly all declined. Italian of 1861, are especially heavy. The funds have also experienced a fresh reduction of per cent., and American securities f, but British railways, and banking and financial shares are in most cases quoted the same as on Saturday, in the absence of business. In the discount market to-day there is a large amount of money seeking employment, and good three months bills have been rather freely taken at to per cent. below the Bank of England minimum. Consols are now quoted 851 to i, ex div., both for money and the next Wednesday's settlement, and 854 to 86 for the new account (July). Foreign stocks are heavy, and an almost general reduction has occurred in prices. Italian Bonds of 1861 show prominent depression, and have declined It per cent. ; Turkish Bonds of 1862 and Brazilian scrip have also receded 1; Spanish Passive, ; Turkish of 1865, ; and Spanish Certificates, 4. Turkish Bonds of 1862 are now quoted 56 to 58 ; ditto of 1865, 294 to 1 ; Greek, 114 to 12 ; Spanish Passive, 181 to 194 ; ditto Certificates, 133 to 4 ; Italian of 1861, 373 to 384 ; Brazilian scrip, 7 to 8 die. ; and Mexican, 174 to 4. American securities are dull, but the reduction in prices does not exceed per cent. 5-20 Bonds are now quoted 644 to 65 ; Erie Railway shares, 424 to 1 ; and Illinois Central, 764 to 2. International Financial shares are now quoted 2to 11 dis. ; London Financial, 14 to 13 dia. ; General Credit, 21 to dis. ; Imperial Mercantile,' 94 to 84 dis. ; Credit Fonder, 14 to 4 dia.; Overend, Gurney, and Co., 18 to 16 dis. ; and National Discount, 64 to 7 prem. About 43,0001. in gold was taken to the Bank on Saturday. A large amount will doubtless be sent in this week, out of the large supplies from America. The steamer Ripon will take to-day only 6,009/. in specie for the East. The exact amount of specie brought by the China, from Boston, is 398,500/. The Tarifa, from New York, is b • • a further sum of 600,0001. The meeting oft e to and Mediterranean Com pany (Limited) took place on Saturday. The direc tors' report, which was adopted, mentioned that, after defraying heavy charges for interest and dis count, and providing for the 1 per cent. required on the preference shares, a balance remains sufficient to allow of the distribution of 3 per cent., free of in come tax, on the ordinary shares,which was there fore declared. The annexed statement has been issued to the shareholders in the London and Brazilian Bank (Limited) : - . . The directors have much pleasure in submitting to the shareholders the balance-sheet, duly audited, for the half year ending Dec. 31, 1865. The net profit to that date, as shown by the annexed accounts, amounts to 30,9161 . 18a 3d., and which the directors intend to dispose of as follows :—To payment of en interim dividend as autho rised by the articles of association of the company, of U. 10a per share on the original shares of 100/. each, and of 5a per share on the new shares of 20/. each ; this is equal to nearly 9 per cent. for the time the money was paid, and will absorb 25,000/., leaving the balance of 5,9161. 18s. 3d. to be carried forward to the next account. This result the directors feel assured will be gratifying to the shareholders, particularly as they have also to state that the business of the bank continues most satis factory. Dividend warrants for the shove interim dividend will be toned and sent to the share holders, payable on and after Thursday, sth July.

Smith became connected with the London Journal, and infused • new spirit into its pages. He was the son of a man known as the manager of Norwich circuit— that is, the manager of a theatrical company which had Norwich for its head-quarters. He is &Roman catholic, and was said to be a Jesuit. He is now, we believe, em ployed in some ecelesisetial seminary in Paris. He came to London to push his way ; offered his services to the Imedon Journal, and rose very speedily to the highest position on its staff. He wrote first of all for its an historical romancecalled " Stanfield Hall." When was ended Eugene Sue took his place till he was reedy with another story, " Amy Lawrence, or the Freemason's Daughter ;" after which he brought out " M i 'nn i grey." This is considered his best story. It raised the ci rculatin of the London Journal to between three and four hundred thousand. It is said, however, and we believe with jus tice, that much of this extended circulation was doe to the paned of Kr. John Gilbert as to the pen of Mr. Smith. Kr. Gilbert began to design for the journal in the year of its commencement, and continued to contribute to it till 1862. No sooner was " Minmigrey" finished than it was followed by another of Mr. Smith's works—" The Will and the Way." That came to en end in the autam.n. of 1863, and was immediately snooseded by the most suc cessful of this author's works, " Woman and her Master." We must say here that we do not speak of all these work' from our own knowledge; we are acquainted with them only in parts. But our partial acquaintance with them marbles us to accept the general verdict that " Woman and her Master," although the most successful of Mr. Smith's works, is inferior in merit to his earlier tale, " Minnigrey : " It was go successful, however, that it raised the circulation of the London JOUPII4I to the greatest number it has ever reached—namely, 500,000. The same writer's next story, " Temptation," was by no means so encoserful. The proprietors of the periodical wished to curtail it ; the author wadi offended, and trans ferred his services to the Blosterated Poway Paper pub biked by OaralL—Msessilters's Magazine for June.
