Ad verting to the visit of Mr. Ckfiverwell to the company's ace, he said one reason why so mach iaforsia.

Me then proceeded to reply to the various questions 'which had been put. Mr. Wakefield wanted what was rather difficult ; be wanted to have a badmen that was not risky. That was what be (Mr. Grant) wanted, but it wee • philosopher's Woos that could sot be bond. (Hear, hear.) U five sovereigns wore given fix a S. acts it might turn out that the note was not good.

Of muse if the money had been advanced the =y would have its profit. The expense of litigation be almost solely that of the of liquidator. The remainder would not exceed 5001. or 600/. As to the ISM. Attie be believed that, with pesos secured, their value mould sere rise, so that much of what Wis written off would have to be written on. As regarded the pro posed reconstruction, the board, looking at the late crisis, felt that oome what might it was desirable that the liability should,after &that had occurred, be reduced to 2/. per share. (Cheers.) The simple object of the plea was to enable the shareltoldwa to meet any kind of liability, and it had the improve], of men who were perfectly incispindeat of the past. As to the articles of amodation they were riot going to have anything new. The oom w pany only be new as regarded the amount of halm . As respected the amount of commission, the gover nor, the deputy-governor, and the other directors, desir ous of acting in wooed and concord with the shareholders, though equitably entitled to • commission onall the wufita, had authorised him to say that they would merely take oenuoission on the amount divided among the shareholders. (Cheery-) .4e regarded the power of meeting future calls, seeing that only 21. could be called altogether. be thought that question might be safely left to the directors. Should • call become neaesary to pay creditors, it must of course be Made. He denied that Mr. Bernard's representation as to lessee was correct. They had received 315,0001. in dividends, and deducting 5 per cent. from that for interest on capital, there remained 315,0001. They had to account for 1,337,0001., and to meet that they had 1,600,0001.; so that they had redly got 260,0001. in excess of their debits. As regards the_ legality of the proposed arrangement, the directors bad cffitaMed the following legal opinion :—" We are of opinion that the proposed reconstruction of the Credit Ponder and Mobdier of England, through the medium of the formation of a new company on the basis of the plan suggested in the printed circular submitted, in this case may be legally effected. This opinion was signed by Mr. Cairns, Mr. Bovffl, Mr. Lloyd, and Mand three cheers r. Foots." The motion was carried unanimously, were given for the directors. ENGLISH, SCOTTISH, AND AUSTRALIAN CHARTERED BANK.-(THIS DAY.) This day the 26th ordinary meeting of share holders was held at the offices of the company, Comhill ; Mr. ROBERTSON in the chair. The report, which has already been published in the B 2 having bean taken as read, A r r CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report and of the dividend at the rate of 7 per cent. per annum, free of income-tee: on 600,00 W., the paid-up capital of the bank, said he d ill not know there was anything to say beyond what the report itself contained. The business in London was not so profitable as it might be, owing to the high rate of interest which prevailed, but it answered their purpoae very well on the other side. Mr. ELDER seconded the motion. Mr. THOMPSON said he regretted that the result was not so satisfactory as he had anticipated when he addressed the shareholders the last tune from the chair. He took perhaps too sanguine a view, but still he had the fullest confidence in the stability and success of the bank. In reply to a question by a SHARZHOLDEB, The CHAIRMAN said the accounts were made up as fully and completely as it was possible, and if any further de- mands came upon them for bad debts they would come tipm the directors by surprise. The reserve fund of 60,0001, was invested in the business of the company. The motion was then put and carried. A vote of thanks to the Chairman and directors termi nated the proceedings.

The amount of business in the stock and slime markets is limited to-day, and very few chariges have occurred in prices. The tone generally is rather dull, notwithstanding the satisfactory tenor of the news from abroad and the prospect of an early reduction in the Bank of England rate of discount. The flatness observable may be chiefly ascribed to the commencement of the holiday season. Attention is also directed at the moment to the fortnightly settle ment, which will be completed to-morrow. The English funds have declined * per cent. Some of the English railways exhibit an advance, but the present quotations are for the new sooousrkand• therefore include the rates of "continuation.' Foreign bonds and banking and financial shares are inactive. The discount market is extremely quiet to-day, and the rate for the best paper is 1 to 2 per cent. below that charged at the Bank of England. Consols are now quoted 881 to for money, and 881 to I for the account (August 9). The foreign stock market is quiet, and' prices are unaltered, with the exception of a rise of 1 per cent. in Turkish of 1865, Spa nish Certificates, and Mexican. Turkish Bonds of 1862 are now quoted 51 to 53, ex div.; dittoof 1865, 271 to 281; Greek, 111 to 12 ; Spanish Passive, 19/ to 201; ditto Certificates, 14/ to 151 ; Italian, 1861, 521 to t ; Brazilian scrip, 3to 21 dis. ; and Mex ican, 171 to /. American securities are quiet. 5-20 Bonds are quoted 691 to ; Erie Railway shares, 41 to 1; and Illinois Central, 77 to 1, being per cent. lower. International Financial shares are now quoted 1f to 11 dis. ; London Financial, 121 to Ilk dia. ; General Credit, If to 11 dia. ; Credit Foncier, n to 31 dis., ex div. (81. paid); and National Dis count, 8 to 1 prem. The Seine, from the West Indies, has brought 467,0001. in specie. HALF-PAST THRZIS o'CLoox. Consols remain dull, at 881 to 1 for money, and 881 to i for the account. Aboutl2o,oool. in gold has bean sent into the Bank, including 60,000 sovereigns from the Conti nent. At Paris this morning the Three per Ceni Rentes opened at 69, being per cent. better. In consequence of the severe restrictions which the state of the money market has lately placed upon business, not merely the supply but the actual creation of mercantile bills has been checked, and this at a time when, owing to the satisfactory commencement of the harvest, the in creased firmness of the exchanges, the diminution in the demand for gold for export, the abso lute cessation of the demand for silver for the East, and the fall in the value of money abroad, there is a growing disposition to let out money. Under these circumstances there is a strong belief that the long expected fall in the Bank rate of dis count will not be deferred beyond Thursday next. The only question discussed seems to be as to whe ther the reduction will be 1 or 2 per cent. The directors will probably move with caution, but the moral effect, both at home and abroad, of a lower ing of the rate by only 1 per cent. would be great. About 38,000 sovereigns were withdrawn from the Bank on Saturday for Belgium. _ . A telegram from Calcutta states that the rate of discount has again been reduced 2 percent., making a reduction of 4 per cent. since the sth July. An appeal against the order made on Tuesday last by Vice-Chanoellor Stuart, appointing one of the creditors, together with Mr. Alfred A. James, of the firm of Edwards, James, and Co., official liquidators of the International Contract Company (Limited), was heard on Saturday by the Lord Chan cellor and dismissed with costs. _ The Indian Railway Companies are still free bor rowers.

The half-yearly meeting of the Bristol and Exeter Railway Company is called for the 29th August, at Bristol. The directors of the Manchester and Liverpool District Banking Company have announced that a half-yearly dividend of 15e. a share, and also a bonus of ss. a share (both clear of income-tax) will be payable to the proprietors on the Bth of August. An extraordinary general meeting of the British Indian Tea Company (Limited) is called for the 10th of August to confirm the resolution passed at the meeting on the 20th inst. The Master of the Rolls proposes on the 7th of August to make a call of if. per share upon the contributories of the Mexican and South American Company. In preparation for to-morrow's settlement, the Stock Exchange dealers were on Saturday occupied with the adjustment of the account. The rates of " continuation " were generally moderate, but in the afternoon the charge increased to i per cent. on Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway stock, and it was also rather heavy on Metropolitan. Great Western and Great Eastern stocks, on the contrary, were scarce for the settlement.

It is hoped that two water-wheels may soon be in full working order. Though, from the delay in getting up the machinery, some further time may elapse before the works at the mines are in full operation, the directors continue to receive from competent judges, who have seen the company's property since their last advice to you, an unvarying report of its very great value and importance." _ .

This forenoon Mr. Richards, deputy coroner, resumed the inquiry, at the Adam and Eve Tavern, Lower Homerton, relative to the death of a young women named Elizabeth Haburn, aged 22 years, who, it was supposed, had lost her life through abortion. Mr. W. Harland, 22, Aspland-grove, Hackney, merchant's clerk, said that be had known the deoeseesi three weeks. She lived at Anderson's coffee-house, near the New North-road. He met her in St. James's-park, and she told him that she was an ironer. She said that she had been drugged and 'educed IS months ago, and that 12 months ago she had had a miscarriage. Witness slept with her on three er four occasions, and he saw her almost daily. She complained of pain in her side. She never asked witness for medicines to procure abortion. Dr. Atkyns maw her at the coffee-shop. On Saturday week witness fetched her away from the coffee-shop. Mrs . Jane Rusting, of 2 6 , Asplaud-grove, accompanied witness in the cab, and de ceased was taken to Mrs. Rusling's house. Dr. Wright saw deceased there. She was next day taken to the workhouse, where she died. Witness had not slept with her at Ander son's coffee-house. Mrs. Elizabeth Anderson said she kept a coffee-house in Slueftesbury-street, Horton. Last Monday fortnight the deceased came to her shop accompanied by Mr. Harland, whom she said was her brother, and asked to hire a room for a week. Witness gave her half a room. Mr. Harland came to see her every evening, but witness never saw any impropriety. The next Sunday she became very ill ; she vomited continually. Dr Atlryns saw her. She would not tell witness anything ; she was very reserved. On one or two or three nights Mr. Harland sat up with her. She was very ill, and vomited day and night. On Saturday week she was taken away by Mr HarLodand Mrs. Muslin. Mrs. Jane Railing, 26, Aspland-grove, Hackney, the wife of aclerk at a financier's, said that Mr. Harland was an old friend of her husband's. He told her that there was a young person dying at a coffee-shop from want of attention. He said nothing about any attachment or any thing of the kind. Witness said, " Well, let us not let the poor thing die like that. We will bring her here." Witness took her a change of linen, and brought her to Aspland-grove. Deceased would not tell witness any thing about her history, and witness knew nothing further about the matter. Depend upon it she would never act so again. Mr. Harland never told her anything *bout the girl's antecedents. Mr. Harland recalled, said that he first met the de ceased on Tuesday. She said she was looking for a situa tion. She told him the story of her having been drugged, &c., and she seemed to wish him to take her to live with him, hut that he would not do. He did not induce her to leave her home. She gave him her address, and on the Saturday he wrote to her, and on the Sunday night he slept with her. The next day she said she wanted a lodging, and as she was a stranger, she asked him to accompany her to get a room, and proposed, to avoid saspicion, that he should pass for her brother. He assented, and got her a room at Mrs. Anderson's coffee-house, a very respectable place. The Coroner asked the witness what could have induced him to got a young married lady like Mrs. Bailing into the very awkward position in which he had placed her. Mr. Harland said that be had done sothrough mere Emi -1 ness, for he might simply have left the deceased to her fate. He had sat up with her for three nights. and Mrs. Bulling asked him what made him look ao badly. He then told her that a young pereou wss dying from ne -11 glect, and Mrs. Railing offered to take her into her house. and she did so from kindness of heart. Dr. Wright said that be saw deceased at Mrs. Ruling's house, on Sunday week. She was in a state of eollapse,and he could not form any certain opinion upon the ease. Dr. Miller said that deceased was brought to the Hackney workhouse on yesterday week. She died in a few hours. The post-mortem examination showed that there was severe inflarnation of the womb. He attributed death to the exhaustion consequent on inch inflammation. The appearances led to the inference that there had been I a recent miscarriage. He could not say positively whether there had or had not been abortion, but he could not at ' tribute the fatal inflammation to natural causes. Ann Hugburn, Balham - hill , said that deceased was her sister. She was m arried to an engineer, who was drowned two years ago. She had a child by her husband two years old still living. She went out to work all day until three weeks ago. She never was away from home, On Sunday three week she went believedaway witness never saw her alive after.s Witness de ceased had been led away by a young gentleman. I n answer to the Coroner, the witness reluctaly ad- mitted that the deceas ed did not come home as e nt arly us witness wished. The Coroner, in summing up, said that the ease was a very mysterious one. If the deceased died from the conse quences of abortion, she had carried the secret of her accomplices with her to the grave. AA for Mr. Hitrland, be did not appear to be open to any censure or suspicion in relation to the deceased's death. The jury returned a verdict, " That deceased died from inflammation of the womb, but whether the said inflam mation was caused by attempts at abortion, or other wise, the evidence is not sufficient to show." Negotiations were opened several years age, but without result, between the cabinets of Vienna and Paris, with the object et removing to France the remains of Napoleon 11., Duke de Reiebetadt. A letter from Vienna now states that the Emperor Francis Joseph, to show his gratitude toward , Napoleon 111., has spontaneously offered so restore them to France.
