Mr. Webb, (nun the (dine of Messrs. France and Ile'• skim. solicitors. appeared to watch the case on behalf of -one parties interested in the case. The alleged mother of the deceased was a young woman Is years of age. she was a domestic servant in the em ployment of a laoy named Miss France. Nothing wrong was suspected until ler istress was about to chaii-e her reidlents- from No. Faleon•street, City, to No. t;esw(ll-read. lln Thursday, the 21st ult. ' while the furniture was being packed up the accused became cry ill, and upon being taxed with being in a certain condition she denied it. On the following Friday Walford was called in, but the young woman would make no admission beyond saying, " I can tell you the 71,1D1 . : of the father of the child." She stated that he WAS City policeman. On the Saturday she was removed to the East London Union at Homerton. While there she blade a statement, and a box which her mistress bad re moved to her new residence was then searched. It was found to contain the body of a well-ileveloped full-timed male child wrapped in a blanket. There was a piece of a line tied tightly round the neck, and it was knotted. Mr. W. Walford, surgeon, said that the child might hare been partly alive when put in the blanket. Fastening a iIiVCC of .A11:11 TUttllii the child . * neck and knotting it would cause death by strangulation. Msria Gale, nurse at the East London Union, Homer ton, said that on Sunday, the Gird ult., Rose Fruen, the mother of the deceased, was admitted into the infirmary of that workhouse. She made no statement until after witness had her removed to the lying-in ward on the fol lowing Tuesday. Witness questioned her, and she said, " There has been a baby, and the child was left in a box." She did not .oiy that the child was born alive. I:y Mr. Weld, - %Vitae.% uever cautioned the accused before she questioned her. The accused is still very ill. Siblett said that it was mental anxiety that pre vented the recovery of the accused. She was completely prostrated. She could not possibly bear up while giving evidence before the court at present. The court was accordingly adjourned. THE SHOCKING DEATH OF A WOMAN AT THE OLD-STREET POLICE-STATION. INQUEST.-(THIS DAY.) - - This forenoon Alr. Humphreys, the coroner, held an inquiryott the green Gate Tavern, City-rood, touching the death of a woman named Sophia Grant, aged :ti years, who expired while in custody at the Old-street police. station. Pohce.constable William Phillips, 229 G. said that at 2 o'clock last Sunday morning he was on duty in Golden- Lne, St. Luke's, and he sew a woman sitting on a door step. She was drunk. She said that she had taken two muirterns of rum, two pints of ale, and a drop of brandy. She could not walk, and she was taken into custody and conveyed to the police-station,where food was given to her. Samuel Hodge, 44 A, said that the deceased was placed in a warm cell. Her clothes were wet and they were dried. She was placed sitting at II fire before she was shut in the cell. Sergeant John Wipelan], 91 G, said that • little after 5 o'clock the deceased complained of being unwell. The divisional surgeon was sent for, and be ordered her medi cine. She got better, and on Monday she was sent out of the station, and a police-constable was ordered to take her before a magistrate. She said " I cannot walk," and she was brought back to the station and died. Mr. G. G. Yarrow, the police surgeon, said that the deceased complained of difficulty of breathing. He gave her medicine. fin Monday when he was called in he found her stead. Her body was very much emaciated. The post 'Hertel,' examination showed that s he h a d di e d from disease of the lungs, accelerated by want and exposure. Her blood was thin and liquid, and that showed the im poverished state of the system. Her body was almost • skeleton. She was d resse d i n workhouse clothing. Her stockings were marked " Bethnal-men workhouse." She bad evidently bad no food for some time before she was taken into custody by the police. She st a t e d t o w it ness that she was frequently seized with difficulty of breathing after she had taken anything to drink. The exposure of sitting on the door step was most injurious to the de ceased in the condition in which she was. Mr. Girling stated that no person was present to identify the deceased. She said that she had come from Dartford, but that statement was found to be untrue. No money or property of any kind was found upon her. It was stated that the deceased must have been in the kabit of sleeping at night about the streets and under archways, for if she had alert in a casual ward she could not have been in the fearfully dirty condition in which she was found. It was a l so stated that her sufferings from want of food must have been great. She had evidently livedby begging, and it i s su pp ose d th at s h e was given drink by labourers when she asked for money, as it is their frequent habit to do. She said to the police that whenever she was given drink she drank it. The Coroner having summed up, the jury returned the following verdict :—" That the deceased expired at the Oldatreet police-station from the m or t a l effects of dis ease of the lungs, accelerated by want of food and expo sure to the cold."

Pd." The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report and accounts, observed that they were dealing with the lint half of the financial year, and hence the report was brief. He thought the proprietors would consider that under the circumstances the results presented were highly satisfactory. At the mat meeting he remarked that in con sequence of the fall in the rate of interest the profits would be less than they had been in the foregoing half-year. The last six months was a period of gloom, depression, and distrust ; but the clouds were in some degree clearing away, and he hoped that what had oc curred would preduce great caution in monetary matters. The results in their own case proved that caution had been exercised, and no hope of profit would ever induce the directors to deviate from the narrow path of legitimate banking. (Cheers.) The late events had tended to strengthen the strong, and had weeded out many establish ments which ought perhaps never to have existed. (Hear.) The amount paid for interest in the last half year ex ceeded the dividend of the shareholders, but he was sure the shareholders did not grudge that, as it showed what a vast amount of business had been done. lie was happy to say that the business of the bank was satisfactorily increasing, and that all the branches continued remunerative. (Cheers.) Adverting to the property of the company in Princes-street, he observed that for a frontage of Pi feet it had obtained under the award of the arbitrator 43,000/. from the corporation of London. The bank premises in Chancery-lane had also proved very valuable, many of the chambers being well let, and the new Palace of Justice being about to be erected in the vicinity. In conclusion he remarked that the board, for very good reasons, proposed that the vacancy in the direction caused by the death of Hr. Gilchrist should not be tilled up on that occasion, but that the matter should be left in their hands. Mr. SLATER could not understand why so large an amount should be carried forward. He objected to so much care for posterity ; all the money earned within the half year ought to be divided among the existing proprietors. He did not see why the shares of that company should be so low in the market. It was said that the company had made a large advance to some railway company on debeu tares or Lloyd's bonds, and he should be glad if the chairman would state whether or not that was true. • . . Mr. REEVE wished for definite informationwitrregard to the company's property in Fleet-street Mr. EIia:JERALD concurred with a previous speaker in his objection to the carrying forward of so large an amount. Having watched the proceedings of other banks he found that in the preceding half-year none of them carried over more than 2,000!., while in their own ease the amount was 79,000 f. The policy on which the earnings of that bank were appropriated was not approved on the Stock Exchange. All admitted that the bank was a sound one, but when money had been earned it was kept from the shareholders on cue pretext or other—(hesr, hear) —and hence it was that the shares were so much below their real value. (Hear, hear.) The CHAIRMAN, in replying, observed that that was not the period at which all the profits were divided, and he believed that the shareholders would not be dissatisfied in July next. He did not think any of them as merchants divided the whole of the profits before the end of the financial year. The ques tion was one for tho next meeting, and no alter ation could be made now. As regarded acceptances, the rule of that bank was never to grant to any fi rm an unco vered credit. It made no advances for which it did not have security of the ralueof 255. foreveryWareceived. Tho premises in Fleet-street had been let to a good tenant on satisfactory terms. As regarded securities, no one ever saw in that bank a Lloyd's bond, and no one had any money of theirs for which they did not hold ample rea lisable security. The report and accounts were then adopted ; and a divi dend at the rate of 15 per cent. per annum, and a bonus of 2i per cent. having been declared, a vote of thanks to the directors terminated the proceedings. WHITEHALL, JAN. s.—The Queen has been pleased togrant unto the Rev. Henry Longueville Mengel, 8.D., the office and place of Regius Professor in Ecclesias tical History in the University of Oxford, in the room of Walter Wadilinirton Shirley, D.D, deceased.-6 1 aulfe. DEATH OF MIL WILLIAM KIDD.—The death is announced this morning of Mr. William Kidd, an author who has for many years pest been known as a writer of interesting books on a variety of subjects connected with natural history. Mr. Kidd was 64 years of age. ETON COLLEGE.—The Christmas vacation will terminate on Wednesday next, the 16th inst., with the re turn of the lower boys. The fifth and aixth forms arrive at the College ou the following days. THE Paula or Bovrr.—Lord Clarence Paget, commander-in-chief in the Mediterranean, is about to pro ceed to Egypt to invest the Pacha with the Order of the Bath. The ceremony is to be one of extraordinary splendour. POOTUALL.—ETON AND HARROW V. THE WORLD. —This great match, which had been anticipated with con siderable interest by lovers of the exciting game, and about the result of which much speculation existed, was to have been played yesterday at Battersea-park, but in conse quence of the extremely unfavourable state of the weather and the sloppiness of the ground it did not take place. HICHTLY PPNISHED.—Joseph Slater, a colliery deputy, was charged before • bench of magistrates at Bishop Auckland, in the county of Durham. on Monday last, with having endangered the safety of Spenny Moor Colliery, by exhibiting a naked light in the pit. The charged was proved, ai.d it was stated that there were upwards of 100 men and boys in the pit at the time the light was exhibited. The bench fined the defendant 2!. or one month's imprisonment. Several of the workmen had refused to go into the pit if the defendant was allowed to act in the same capacity as he had done. The Daily Telegraph this morning says :—" We have the best authority for saying that the statement to which we referred yesterday, of Sir Morton Poto's con templated retirement from the representation of Bristol, is unfounded. Sir Morton has no intention of retiring." ST. KATHARINE'S HOSPITAL, REGENT'S PARK. —The hospital has, or should have, its interest for all England, as the one religious community of the kind that has come down to us from the middle ages ; and if the contrast between the magnificent mediseval theory and the ludicrous modern fact is a little too complete, we cannot help it. The original design, repeated in successive charters, WAR as beneficent as can well be conceived. The master was to be a " professed priest," to reside con stantly in the hospital, and " fully go through the duty and function of his office" there. The brothers and sisters were to be always present at Divine serviee, except when employed about other necessary business ; they were to spend the rest of their time in visiting the sick and in firm, " as well as reading to them and asking them ques tions in any matter of divinity, as in other works of charity." " Scholars were to be taught, abundant alms distributed—in short, St. Katherine's precints was to be • model parish, under the immediate eye of its royal pa tronesses. To its substantially performing its parochial functions, we take it to be owing that it was not wholly secularised in the evil days of Seymour, Fleming, and Wilson ; and even into the nineteenth century it still did its duty, perhaps after • feeble fashion, and certainly with no assistance from its masters—one cannot readily inns gine the Earl of Faversham, or the Hon. George Berkeley, M.P., or Sir Herbert Taylor, troubling themselves much abo .t the details of district-visiting in the queer localities eastward of the Tower—yet still with fairly honest pur pose and performance on the part of the brotherhood of the time. Now, the brothers preach so many sermons • year ; the sisters, perhaps, inspect the needlework of the eijiteen little girls ; the master and the bedespeople do nothing at all but among them they manage to fatter away some 7,0 00!. a year, let us hope to their own faction : it can hardly be to that of anybody else.—Frioar's Magazine for January.

The English funds opened firmly this morning, at the last quotations of yesterday, but have since declined per cent., in c..msequence of specu lative realisations. The reduction would, perhaps, have been more important, but for the re-investment of a portion of the dividends, the payment of which commenced this morning, together with a short supply of stock at the settlement. As affording some idea as to the extent of the purchases since the last iccouni, ending en the 6th ult., it may it mentioned that the rise in Consols has been as much as 21 per cent. British railway stocks are fiat, and have experienced a fall ranging from to per cent. Foreign securities show dulness, but- the decline in prices is neither general nor important. Banking shares are rather firm, and financial in active. In the discount market to-day the sapply of money has largely increased, owing to the payment of the dividends, and the rates for bills show a drooping tendency. The current quotation is called 3.1 per cent., but transactions have occurred at 3 and 3 1 1, or 4, to below the Bank tis;h;oluta. Consols are now quoted 91 to ex div., both for money and to-morrow's settlement, and 91/ to I, ex div., for the February account. Turkish of 1865 and Mexican bonds are dull, and exhibit a decline of / to / per cent., but the other speculative descriptions are unchanged. Turkish Bonds of 1862 are quoted 64 to 55, es: div. ; ditto of 1865, 32/ to / ; Greek, 14/ to ; Spanish Passive, 211 to 1; ditto Certi ficates, 144 to 1; Italian of 1861, 53/ to it, e% div. ; Mexican, 174 to 18 ; and Russian Scrip, lti to 11 prem. United States 3-20 Bonds have receded per cent., and Erie Railway shares 1, but Illinois Central have improved 1. The present quotations are :-5-20 Bonds, 72} to 1 ; Erie Railway shares, 451 to 46 ; and Illinois Central, 801 to 811. Anglo-American Telegraph shares are quoted 15/ to 16, and Atlantic Telegraph 8 per cent, pre ference to 1, showing no change. International Financial shares are quoted 21 to 21 dia. ; London Financial, 16 to 15 dis. ; General Credit, 11 to 11 dis., ex all ; Credit Fonder, 5 to 41 dis. ; National Discount, 94 ton prem. ; and Hudson's Bay, 161 , to 1, ex div. At the meeting to-day of the proprietors of the Union Bank of London the directors' report stated the net profits for the six months at 139,552 i., and recommended a dividend and bonus for that period, at the rate of 20 per cent. per annum, clear of income tax. It is notified that the transfer-books of the War rant Finance Company will be closed from Thurs day, the 10th, until Thursday, the 24th inst., both days inclusive, preparatory to the ordinary general meeting. There were no bullion operations at the Bank yes terday. Of the 800,000/. in Australian gold on the way to England a large portion will probably arrive within the next fortnight, and, according to present appearances, will be sent into the Bank. The amount of gold engaged for transmission to Brazil by the steamer leaving Southatupten to day is only 700/. The silver market remains dull, with very few transactions. There is still no inquiry for the East, and the demand for the Continent is only trilling. Bars are quoted ss. Old. to bs. per ounce ; and Mexican dollars, 4e. The foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon were dull. The rates for bills on Hamburg and for short drafts on Paris were quoted somewhat less few:4r ably for this country. The list is subjoined : Amsterdam, 3 months, 11.181 to Il.loj ; ditto, short, 11.151 to 11.161; Rotterdam, 3 months, 11.19 to Milt!: Antwerp, 3 mouths, 25.371 to 25.40; Brussels, 3 months, 25.371 to 23.40 ; Hamburg and Altona, 3 months, 13.71 to 13.88} ; Berlin, Cologne, &a., 3 months, 6.25 A to ; St. Petersburg, 3 months 31 to 301 , Paris, Awn, 25.121 to 25.221; ditto, 3 months, 23.33 to 23.40 ; Marseilles, 3 months, 25.371 to 23.421 ; Pratildort-on-the•Haine, 3 mouths, 1191 to 1191 ; Vienna, 3 months, 13.:.11 to ' 13.40 ; Trieste, 3 months, 13.30 to 13.40 ; Madrid. ;; months, 471 to 471 ; Santander, 3 months, 4$ to 47i ; 3 months,4Bl to4Bl ; Seville, 3 months, tog to 444; Malaga, 3 months, 4 7 1 to 4 71; Valencia, 3 months, 484 to 48; Bar. oelona, 3 months, 481 to 481 ; Bilbao, 3 months, 471 to 471 ; Ssragneas, 3 months, 48 to 471 ; Leghorn, 3 months, 27.5 to 27.15; Genoa, 3 months, 27.5 to 27.15 ; Naplea, 3 months, 27.5 to 27.15 ; Palermo, 3 months, 27.5 to 27.15 ,• Messina, 3 months, 27.5 to 27.15 ; Lisbon, 90 days date, 311 to 51 ; Oporto, 90 days date, 511 to 511. We understand that Mr. W. H. Holyland, the official liquidator of the Commercial Bank Corpora tion of India and the East, is about to apply to the Court of Chancery to sanction the payment, early in February, of a dividend of 6s. Bd. in the pound. This dividend would have been 10s. but for obstacles raised by some of the creditors and shareholders at Bombay to the remittance of the funds from there, which will now have to be made available for a second dividend. The question of a call of 401. per share on the shareholders of Barned's Banking Company (Limited) stands for hearing on Sat urd ay next be fore the Master of the Rolls, An extraordinary meeting of the English and Foreign Credit Company (Limited) was held yester day, when the resolution for the voluntary liquida tion of the undertaking, passed at a previous meeting, with a view to the reduction of the liabi lity on the shares, was confirmed. The London, Blighton, and South Coast Railway traffic return shows this week a decrease of r.g. com pared with the corresponding period of last year ; the Metropolitan, an increase of 1,194!. ' • and the Glasgow and South Western, a decreaa, of 390 t. The half-yearly meeting of the Australian Trust Company is called for the 31st inst. . . A coinmitnication from the secretary of the Madras Irrigation and Canal Company intimates that "the committee of the Stock Exchange. upon application and proper proof, on Monday ordered that the sham of this company shall in future be quoted under the head British Possessions,' with the words Guaranteed 5 per Cent.' added."

Exchequer Bills remain at Bs. to 12s. prim. In the foreign stock market there was a demand, at an improvement, for some of the securities which usually are little dealt in, while the specula tive descriptions gave way in a fewcases.
