The evidence against the other pri peers went to show that they bad conspired together to cause the offence to be committed. Mr. Lewis, when the case wascalled on, said that since the lest remand, he had received information that Holdsworth, w h o was alleged to have been one of the principa's in the transaction, had been taken into custody in Switzerland, sa d would be brought to this country in a few days, and he, therefore, asked that the prisoners might be remanded. Alderman Finals at once acceded to the application, and the prisoners were remanded for a week. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. COWARDLY ASSAULT BT A MEDICAL sTUDENT.--o)mmirrAL WITHOUT A FINE. :Wm Lindsey Lackey, a medical student, residing at 20as Wincentaquare, \Westminster. was charged before Mr. Knox, with assaulting Henry George Howland, of 39, Ken aiagion-place, Kensington. The complainant said that about five minutes past 12 o ' c lock last night he was standing in the Regent-circus, waiting for a Bayswater omnibus to take him home. While leaning against some shop shutters the prisoner and two or three companions came along and pushed a gainst him. He asked them why they had done so, when the prisoner gave him a violent blow on the nose. He went after the prisoner, end while holding hi m to give him in charge, one of the prisoner's com panions struck him, and the prisoner also struck him a second time. After giving the prisoner in charge, he (com et) went to the Middlesex Hospital and had his nose d, and was told by the surgeon that he could not tell whether his nose was broken or not. In answer to the prisoner, the complainant said that be would swear that it was the prisoner who gave him the blow on the nose. The prisoner said he did not strike the complainant the first time, it was some one else. The complainant said he merely asked why he was pushedagainst when the prisoner struck him most unman lolly. Barnes, 83 C, said, that hearing cries of " Police " in the Regent-cirous, and going to the com plainant he found him bleeding very much from the nose. The prisoner on being charged with the assault denied it. Be took the prisoner, who had been drinking, to the station. The complainant was quite sober. The prisoner said he had been out to dinner, and was going along the Regent-circus with his brother and friends when an altercation took place between one of them and the complainant, and be (pri soner) tried to interfere to prevent a disturb ance, and because the complainant was struck he was locked up. He had only left Harley-street at 10 minutes to 12, and could not have done - much in such a short time. It was strange the complainant had no witness. He denied striking the complainant. Mr. Knox asked the prisoner if he had any witnesses. The prisoner said he had not. Mr. Knox said then it was not mare remarkable that complainant had no witness than that he (pri soner) had not got any. As the prisoner sa luted that he did not strike the complainant and as he believed no man would behave so dastardly as to let another suffer for his act, he would give the person who did it an opportunity of coming forward, and would remand the prisoner for that purpose. The prisoner now said be was not aware that he did it. He did not think he struck the complainant. Mr. Knox said, after the last observation of the prisoner, be kad no doubt whatever that he did strike the com plainant. The prisoner said he was very sorry. Mr. Knox said the prisoner would be committed for a month with hard labour. The prisoner asked to be let off, stating that he had an important engagement that day, and it would be a great injury to him. Mr. Knox declined to alter his decision, telling the prisoner that it would also be a great injury to tho com plainant if his nose was broken. MARYLEBONE. CAPTURE OP A HOUSEBREAKER. - A BRAVE WOMAN. A well-known emanate of thieves, named George Ben rood, of 8, Langley-court, Drury-lane, was charged with feloniously breaking into and entering the house No. 63, Welbeck-street, Cavendish-square, and stealing therefrom a pair of silver-gilt nutcrackers and a tea caddy, value V. 2s. 6d., the property of J. B. P. Dupont, Est). Mary Ann Stanton, prosecutor's servant, deposed that on the night of the 9th inst. she was in the kitchen when she heard the front street door shut very gently and foot steps walk stealthily up the stairs. She went up to the hall passage and saw that the front door was closed. On going further upstairs she saw the shadow of a man on the drurimproom lauding and heard footsteps. She asked who was there but received no answer until be came close to her, when she immediately identified him as being the prisoner, and he then told her he bad brought a box for Mr. Johnson which he had left upstairs. She told him that all was not right, and as he attempted to pus her, she seized him round the waist and held him tight, and shouted out for her master. The prisoner then pushed her down, but she still held him, and in the struggle they both fell downstairs. The prisoner then broke loam from her, opened the door, and got away, but she followed him, crying out "Stop thief," and the pri soner was captured by some cabmen at the corner of 3lary lebone-lane. She then went to fetch her master, and on her return to Marylebone-Itne, she ascert ainedained that the cabman had let the prisoner go. In the fall downstairs the prisoner dropped a tea caddy (produced) and he left his hat behind him. She was sure the pri soner must have opened the door with a key, for she left the door securely shut a few minutes previously. Sergeant Cole, '23 C, said he apprehended the prisoner lid night in Cross-street, Regent-street, where he found him in company with four well-known thieves. On charg ing him the prisoner fully arhuitted that ho was the man who had broken into prosecutor's house. The prisoner, who offered no defence, was fully com mitted for trial. WORSHIP-STREET. MOM CONSTABLES SENT )'UR TRIAL.-COUNTER CHARGE. Henry Crampton, a compactly set and powerful man, • about 3 u years of age, was charged with assaults on the yolk*. It should be understood that the first hearing of this matter was on Monday, the 29th of October, before Mr. Cooke, on which occasion Mr. Beard defended, and succeeded at the close of a brief examination in obtaining summonses against Constables George Davis, 325 N, and FrederiA Jarvis, 331 N (the coniplain• ing parties), for an alleged fearful and murderous assault on his client, who certainly appeared to bo in a deplorable teedition from wounds principally on the head. Since that date a vast quantity of testimony has, on four dif ferent occasions, been brought forward on both sides. Mr. B. Forman, surgeon, 23, Nelson-terrace, Stoke New ington, said—l was called in to see the person Crampton on the 29th of October last, after he had left this court. On the front part of his bend there was a large lacerated and contused wound—a union of two wounds—four inches in length, and the parte around it were greatly bruised. At the back of the head there was another lacerated and contused wound, some what less in extent ; matter was forming in it, so as very much to enlarge it and increase the danger, that matter had to be let out and the wound itself was so severe and the parts so much injured that the structure was deteriorated and matter formed in consequence ; both wounds were dangerous. Erysipelas was a most probable consequence or inflammation of the brain; inflammation sod death of the bone were likely to be the result of such wounds. (Witness described smaller injuries over the entire frame and limbs, and mentioned that blood was rased with the urine, caused probably by a blow on the lack.) Witness added—He was in great danger up to the fifth day, and is under my tending now ; he appears to me to have been a thoroughly healthy man ' • if addicted to drinking he could not have survived. The wounds on the head divided all the structures, and exposed the bone. The injuries on the thumb and knee might have been vaulted by a fall. Not so the other wounds. Mr. Cooke—Such injuries as detailed must have been the result of great violence indeed. The magistrate expressed his intention to send the con stables and Crampton fur trial on cross indictment. WANDSWORTH. THE LAW ON LOST PROPERTY. &lir , / Chandler, a brickmaker, was placed in the dock before Mr. Dayman, charged with being in the unlawful Possession of some old silver. Sergeant Beaumont, of the \V division, said that in con sequence of information he received he went yesterday to the shop of Mr. Clark, a pawnbroker in the High-street, Clapham, where he saw the prisoner, who offered some old silver, weighing 1:: ounce, for sale. Some pieces of silver were handed to the magistrate, who looked at them, but it appeared to be impossible to tell to what they had belonged. The sergeant forthor said he asked the prisoner how he became possessed of the silver. when he told him that be found it near Guildford. He also told him that he hammered and broke it into the state it is:. In answer to the charge ' the prisoner said that when he found it he rlid not know that it was silver. After knock ing and cutting it about he fancied it was silver, as it carne dean. He was not aware that he was supposed to give it up, and thought he could do what he liked with it. He was a briekmaker, and worked hard for his living. The sergeant said the prisoner's address was correct. Re was working at the sewer in Clapham. The offictr told the magistrate that old silver was worth ss. an ounce. The opinion of the pawnbroker was that the silver had been melted down. Be. Dayman inquired whether the police had received information of any silver having been stolen. Sergeant Beaumont said there had been several plata robberies in Clapham, but he did not think the silver related to them. Mr. Dayman was of opinion that the 'diver was part of a lar ge medal. He requested the police to detain the silver, in see if an owner could be found. He told the prisoner to come in two months time. The prisoner, on being sc diharged, asked if he could have the silver returned to him. Mr. Dayman said if no owner were found be would be entitled to it. The New York papers say that since the great Ire in Quebec a great number of mechanics and labourers bare left for the States. THE EXPRESS, THURSDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 29, 1866. DASTARDLY AND FATAL OUTRAGE. INQUEST.—(THIS DAY.) Mr. Humphreys, the coroner for Middlesex, this morning held an inquest at the London Hospitnl on view of the body of William Henry Elosworth, aged 21 years, who lost his life through injuries inflicted on him becuu=e, being a teetotaller, he would not pay for liquor for his assailants. Mrs. Sarah Guken, the wife of a hairdresser living in Bethnal-green, identified the deceased as her brother. He was a hairdresser by trade, but he worked in the tea department of the West India Docks. Witness knew nothing of the circumstances which led to his death. She had visited him in the hospital, but he was then suffering from his injuries. He said that he did not remember being struck. He also stated that a number of young men, who worked with him in the tea department, were constantly wanting him to treat them with drink, cud that he once was obliged to do so because he was afraid of them. He was a teetotaller and used not to keep bad company. Mary Middleton, 11, Little Collingwood-street, Bethnal green, said that on the evening of the 9th inst., at half-past 5 o'clock, she was in the Whitechapel-road, when she SaW the deceased and four others coming towards Mile-cud from the direction of Whitechapel Church. One of the men In particular was evidently asking the deceased to do something which he did not want to do. She heard the deceased say, " I cannot do it." The question was asked again, and upon the de ceased repeating, " No, I cannot," the man struck him a violent blow under the left ear or behind it, and knocked him down. He fell with great force on the pavement, and remained motionless, as if dead. The men then all crossed the road. The man that struck the deceased came back, and looked at him as he lay on the ground, and then crossed the road again. A second time he returned and looked at the deceased, and then took to his heels and ran othe r m en also disappeared. %%'itn dow gid the not think tre e could didentify any of them. A police-constable came up, and wituess told him of what Witt happened. William Gibbons, a shoe-black, corroborated this evi dence, and said that he heard the man who struck the deceased the knock-down blow twice say, " Will you do it? " and it was upon the deceased's persisting in his re fusal, that he was struck under the ear. This witness said that he could not identify the men who were with the deceased at the time of the outrage. They were all sober. Police-constable J. Wooley, 391 K, said that he found I the deceased lying on the pavement not far from the Lon don Hospital on the evening in question. He was quite in sensible. Witness got water and tried to restore con sciousness but without success. He was removed to the hospital. A police-sergeant said that he had gone to the W t India Docks, and, from the general description he had re ceived, picked out a man and took him to the station. The witnesses, however, not being able to identify him, he was let go, but be was now present to answer questions. Thomas Curry, 2, Anthony-street, Commercial-road, said he was • carpenter, but he worked in the tea depart ment of the West India Docks. He knew the deceased by sight, but he did not know his name until the police came after him. Witness was not with the deceased on the Lord Mayor's Day. He did not hear any one at the docks talk about the affair. Witness was not a teetotaller, but he did not drink a pint of beer in a week. The police-sergeant stated that the police bad spent two days at the docks making inquiries, but they could get no clue to the guilty parties. Mr. It. Lane, house surgeon, said that the deceased was brought in with his skull fractured on the night of the 9th November, and he died on the 21st. He had been struck on the left side of the head, and bad fallen on his right side. He was nearly unconscious the whole time he was in the hospital. The Coroner said that it was intolerable that a well-con ducted man like the deceased should be set upon by ruf fians and deprived of his life because he would not supply them with drink.' The jury returned a verdict of " Manslaughter against some person or persons unknown for feloniously killing and slaying Wm. Henry Ebsworth," and they recommend that the Home Secretary should offer a reward for the discovery of the guilty parties. CHARGE OF CONCEALMENT OF BIRTH. 100 100 SL 100 100 100 100 100 100.

He wished he could hold out a hope that they would be able to do so in the next half year, hut through the accident to the jetty, which had materially interfered with the traffic, the ships were unable to land their cargoes. The protection of the foreshore awl the restoration of the jetty were under the consideration of the government commissioners. A large amount of traffic might, he believed, be expected from the carriage of fuel to Calcutta. - . Mr. J. C.

The proceedings terminated in the usual manner. MIRE FENIAN ARRESTS IN IRELAND.—DUBLIN, WEDNESDAY NIGHT.—Five Fenian arrests took place to day—viz., James Hannon and Samuel Johnston, immi grants from America. A Federal uniform was found with Johnston. Three other persons were discharged. Sir G. Bowyer, writing to a contemporary, says he thinks some good might come of the Vegerzi mission it the secret societies and the other evil influences which surround the court of Florence could be controlled. He ie convinced, however, that Vegetti will not be permitted to tell the Pope that he should cease to become a king, for to entertain such a proposal would be practically de-truc- I tire of the spirit and intention of the convention of Sep. tember, 1864. As to the proposal of a plebiscite, is Eng land prepared to allow the same operation in Ireland? The hon. hart. concludes with saying that he cannot be lieve the Emperor " will so far violate his duty u the eldest son of the church, and his obligations under the September treaty, and the feelings and cvnvictions of the French nation, as to permit anyone to overthrow the tem ' poral sovereignty of the Vicar of Christ." 6000' 10,000' 6,000' Do. do.

MINES.-(TIIIS DAY.) Ox s o'CLocm. In the mining market to-day, there is little business, the dealers being chiefly engaged in the settlement of the fortnightly account. Prince of Wales, South Condurrow, and North Treskerby shares are inquired for, while Great Vor show flatness. Some of the present quotations are as follows :—Great Vor, 16i to 17 ; South Condurrow, Ils. to 13s. ; Prince of Wales, 255. to 265. ; East Caradon, 5 to ; North Crofty, 21 to 3 ; East Los-ell, 9to 101 ; Wheal Agar, 30s. to 325. lid. ; and Chontales, 21 to g. THE BOARD OF TRADE RETURNS. (THIS DAY.) This morning were issued the Board of Trade returns for October. The total declared value of the British and Irish produce and manufactures shipped from the United Kingdom during the month was as follows : October 15(4 1565 iS4;i3 For the first ten months of the year the total ez. Ports have been as follows : Ten months, 1864 £136,25,612 1865 1866 Professor J. Ferguson, of the National Observe, tory of Washington, V. S., gives the following as the result of the observations made on the morning of the 14th instant, between two and half•pelt four o'clock. On the morning of the 14th there were observed one hundred and seventy two meteors, mostly of small size. The number indicates about the same rate of falling as on the preceding evening. There was nothing peculiar in colour or motion observed. The night, except in the interval above mentioned, was cloudy. WILL OF THE LATE LORD JUSTICE BRUCE. — The will, with three codicils, of the Right Hon. Sir James Lewis Knight Bruce, of Hoehampton Priory, Surrey, late Lord Justice of the Court of Appeal, has been proved in her Majesty's Court of Probate, by his son, Lewis Bruce Knight Bruce, Esq., of Sunbury-on-Thames, the only acting executor. This will, which is written on a foolscap sheet of paper, is all in the handwriting of the late Lord Justice, and is dated July 72, Mil, and wit nessed by Henry Reeve (Registrar of the Privy Council, Whitehall), and C. H. Rothery (Registrar of the Admi ralty Court). After leaving certain legacies to his ser f vants awl several officers of the Court of Chancery, his lordship bequeaths all his freehold, copyhold, and lease hold estates, and the residue of all his personal estate whatsoever, to his wife for her life, and after her death (she died in August last) to his son, Lewis Knight Bruce, absolutely ; and his reason for not making any further provision by his will for his daughter and his grandson, J. \V. K. Bruce, is declared to be that he had provided for them by a certain settlement made in the year ISA. By the codicil, dated July 72, le6l, he revokes that portion of his will relating to his household furniture, plate, Ac., and gives that sum to his son, Lewis Knight Bruce. He ap points his son Lewis Knight Bruce, his son-in-law F. S. D. Typsen, Esq., to whom he leaves a legacy of 210/. and his grandson, J. W. K. Bruce, executors of his will. The will is sworn under 15,0001. In 1859 the Lord Justice Bruce had executed a deed of trust appointing Vice-Chan cellor Sir W. P. Wood, Sir Roundel! Palmer, the Right Hon. H. A. Bruce, M.P., and Clement Swanton, Esq., of Lincoln, trustees in favour of his grandson J. W. K. Bruce for life and his issue, and, in default, in favour of his son Lewis Knight Bruce. CHARGE OF TAMPERING WITH SOLDTEP.B. At the head police-office, Dublin, yesterday, a man, who gave his name as Michael Dillon, and stated that he was al blacksmith, was charged before the presiding magistrate with tampering with the allegiance of soldiers. Two pri vates of the Military Train were examined, and their evi dence was to the effect that they 'net the prisoner, with whom they went to Cranipton-court. While there he said that he was a Fenian, and subsequently, when driving on an outside car to Portobello Barracks, he said there would be " a meeting" that night. One of them asked what meeting, and he replied *meeting of Fenian for drilling." They brought him to the barracks where they preferred • charge against him, and afterwards gave bun over to the police. The magistrate remanded the prisoner. MONEY MARKEIT.-(THIS DAY. Oxs o'Cwcs. The English funds are in request to-day, and Consols show a recovery of to 3-16 per cent., owing to the drooping tendency of the corn market and the expected arrival this afternoon of the Mexican packet, with about 800,0001. in specie, , chiefly silver. Some of the English railways and I foreign stocks are likewise better, but the amount of business .generally is limited, attention being still directed to the settlement of the fortnightly account, which will be completed to-morrow. The directors of the Bank of England, at their weekly court this morning, made no alteration in the rate of discount. It Was not anticipated that any change would be decided upon, the terms in the general market being about equal to the Bank minimum, so that that establishment obtains a fair share of the current business. \e• vertheless, it is understood that the weekly return, made up to last night, shows a further decided improvement under several heads. The applications for discount in Lombard-street to day are upon a moderate scale, but the charge for good bills is maintained at to 4 per cent. The demand will probably increase to-morrow, owing to the payment of 850,0001. on the Victoria debentures, less the 5 per cent. already paid. Short advances on English government securities are obtainable in the Stock Exchange a 3 per cent. Console are now quoted 89f to i, with div. for money, and 884 to g, ex div., for the account (Oth December). Spanish Passive Bonds and Certificates are offered, and have declined Ito 1 per cent., but Italian of 1861 are 1 hotter and Mexican A. The I scrip of the Russian Loan is unchanged, at 14 to 11 prem. Turkish Bonds of 1862 are quoted' 58 to 59 ; ditto 1865, 321 to 33 ; Greek, 131 to 14 ; Spanish Passive, 204 to 1 ; ditto Cer tificates, 134 to 3 ; Italian of 1861, 551 to 1 ; Mexican, 184 to 1. American securities exhibit no movement. The 5-20 Bonds were quoted 691 to 701 ; Erie Railway shares, 461 to 471 ; and Illinois Central, 761 to 771. _ _ . . . . Anglo-American and Atlantic Telegraph Eight per Cent. Preference shares are unaltered, at 14;.,4 to and 3i to 4, respectively. The new Queensland debentures arc firm, at I to 2 prem. International Financial shares are quoted 21 to 21 dia. ; London Financial, 17 to 16 die. ; General Credit, 21 to 21 dis. ; Credit Fonder, 5g to 5/ dis. ; National Disoount, 9 g to a prem. ; and Hudson's Bay, 161 to 3. The following circular has been addressed to the dissentient shareholders in the Russian (Vyk sounsky) Iron Works Company (Limited) : London, Nov. 36, 1866. Dear Sir,—Communications having been made to us, on behalf of lithe directors of this company, for the purpose of bringing about an entire 'settlement of all questions between the dissentient shareholders and the company, including the withdrawal of the contemplated appeal to the House of Lords by the company, and the giving security for the return of the deposits to those shareholders who have repu diated their shares, we have to inform you that it is essential, in order to bring about such a settlement, that we should have the authority of every dissentient shareholder in the form enclosed. You will observe that any agreement which we may enter into with the company is not to be binding upon you unless it is confirmed by the votes of a majority of the shareholders (calculated by the number of their shares) at a meeting to be cen vened for the purpose of ratifying or rejecting the agree ment when made. It is essential to the treaty of compro wise proceeding any further, that the committee should be in a position to represent the whole body of dissentient shareholders, and that the votes of the majority should bind the minority. As it must obviously be for the benefit of us all that the litigation should cease, the appeal be stopped, and fair terms made for the return of our money, we hope that you will return the enclosed authority by Monday next. If the matter be settled, your subscrip tion to the guarantee Ound will be returned in full by Messrs. Harrison, Lewis, and Co , but, if no arrange ment be made, we fear that great delay and expense will be incurred, and the whole of the funds of the company will probably be exhausted in endless litigation. As according to the decision of the Vice- Chancellor we are not able to look to both the directors and the company for repayment of the money. We remain, your obedient servants, Hasa PAWLE, J. R. Robb, T. G. A. PARKINS, A. GOLDSNII.. It is most impel taut that this letter should be answered, or the committee will be unable to act further in the mat ter, and each shareholder will have to protect himself. HALT-PAST THREE O'CLOCK. Consols are firm, at 892, cunt div., for money, and 881 to g, ex div., for the account. About 32,0001. in gold has been sent into the Bank. The death is announced of Mr. W. Miller, the chief cashier of the Bank of England. At Paris this morning the Three per Cent. Renter* opened at 69fr. 65c., being unaltered. The Tanjore, from Alexandria, has brought 4,9761. in specie. The Queensland Government Six per Cent. De bentures for 400,0001., just offered for sale at the Union Bank of Australia, were all disposed of yes terday forenoon, by the acceptance of 42 tenders. As already mentioned, the price of issue is 91 per cent.; but the interest dates from the Ist of July last. Considering this circumstance, there is an impression that the price of issue might have been fixed higher, and this view seems to be con firmed by the rapidity with which the amount has been taken up. A meeting of the creditors of Messrs. Ormerod, Jervis, and Thomson, commission agents, was held at Manchester on Tuesday, when the liabilities were stated at 94,3491., against assets representing 43,1441. A committee of investigation was ap pointed, to report to an adjourned meeting, to be held on the 7th of Dec. A deed of inspectorship, dated the 30thof October, was registered on the 26th inst. at the office of the chief registrar of the Court of Bankruptcy, on the part of Messrs. Charles Morley and Lewin Berried Nlosley, lately carrying on business as bankers at Liverpool under the title of I. Barned and Co. The inspectors are Mr. J. E. Coleman, of Wal Token house-yard, London, and M r. Harwood cot Banner, of Liverpool, accountants ; and the short statement of the nature of the deed shows that the debtors and each of them covenant to wind up their joint and separate estates under the direction of the inspectors, and to distribute the proceeds among their joint and separate creditors, to assign to them all their joint and separate estates upon trust for the joint and separate creditors, and a release on assignment or distribution. A meeting of the creditors and contributories of the Liverpool Borough Bank is convened by the liquidators for the 13th of December, when they will submit a statement showing the progress of the liquidation, as well as a report stating the reason why the winding up has not yet been com pleted. The summary rejection by the debenture holders at their meeting of the scheme of the directors of the London, Chatham, and Dover Railway, to borrow more money, having priority over existing debentures, must be accepted as final. It would have been better for the directors at the outset to have given the information that was asked for by the Debenture Committee, instead of refusing it, and we are glad that even as a necessity they con ceded to give it. Certainly explanations are needed upon the subject of the million-and-a quarter of Lloyd's bonds which Sir Morton Peto says he took up in 1864. The appointing of a con ference between the committee and the directors, with :Tactical ir.ine.s, probably protium some arrangement which may be acceptable told' parties; At a meeting yesterday of the creditors and contri butories of the 1.-aulor., Italian, and Adriatic Steam Navigation Company (Limited), a contract provi sionally entered into by the liquidators fur the sale to a firm of shiphrokers in the City of the six steamers belonging to the undertaking for the sum of 52,5001., was approved. A meeting of the shareholders of the Bank of Hindustan, China and Japan has been called for. the 10th proximo, pas resolutions for volun tarily winding the company, the resolutions to. that effect which were passed at the meeting on the 19th instant not beim; strictly regular. The pro visional official li iimia - ors have appointed 3.lesara. Ashurst, Morris, and Co., their solicitors, in place of Messrs. Flux and Arales, who have resigned. The half-yearly ordiriary meeting of the Imperial Continental Gas Ass4Qiatitn was held at the London Tavern yesterday, wl:en a dividend of 21. 103. per share and a bonus of lf. per share (making together 31. 10s. per sharei, were declared upon the 28,000 shares of the ass , ..:iation for the half year ending 30th June last, pav;,,blo free, of income tax, on 15th of December. At " Lloyd's - yesterd..y much satisfaction was expressed at the apprehension by City Detective Sergeant Webb. of LiLioneloel Holdsworth, for whom a large reward had been offered. Holdsworth is charged with otl..!rs now in custody in conspiring to defraud the tinders ritera of large sums of money, and also in scuttling the ship Severn. Webb, it appears, apprehended his prisoner on Monday night at Bask. Holdsworth will be brought before the Lord Mayor, at the Mansion-house, on Mon day or Tuesday next. The half-yearly meeting of the Canada Company is called for the 20th December, to determine on a dividend. and to elect a governor, in the room el Sir "A. M. T. Farquhar, Dart., M.P., deceased. The preparations yesterday for Friday's settle ment in the railway market showed generally a very moderate supply t,i stock, and only a small amount of outstanding transactions, in consequence of which the rates I.f " continuation " were mostly light.

Satter thwaite and Co. : We have to report a large amount of business in United States government bonds in the London market during the past week. At one pima the 5-20 Bonds of the 11462 issue were quoted to as high as 701 to 71. but from this point there has been s reaction, owing to higher premium on gold in New York for the last two or three days, and they close 691 to 70X. or about a quarter per cent. under quotations of this day week. The 1865 issue, after touch ing 70, remain without alteration, viz., ( . .9e to A ; they, as well as the 1864 issue, are now officially quoted iu the Stock Exchange Daily List.
