Mt. Poland observed that he was instructed to appear ti. Hannay, who, however, was not able to attend. H. .hould proceed as far as he could to-day, and he t 11,:ol the case might be again adjourned for the atten d-,n eof Mr. Hannay. He wished now to put a few vrrdions in cross-examination to Mr. Lewis. Mr. Fitzjames Stephen said it would be necessary to put some further questions to Mr. Lewis in chief. Mr. Lewi. wa• then recalled, and examined by Mr. norm Payne. Ile said that in Jamaica the parishes were he would not say analaguus to the counties in England, but under the control of a custos. who corresponds with the cast°s rotulorum in England. In his absence the M..r ne....isti ate takes his place. Witness WAS member 41 the le A islature for the parish of St. Katherine's. He tevanils-re.l the issue of the document spoken of in the %ilenee at the court.martial as the Queen's advice to the p,..u . .1,• of Jamaica. lie saw the placards posted about the town of St. Ann's previously to May. l'rs•exautiuel by Mr. Poland—Was present at the ..f war, which was attended by more than 30 per sou , . The council was called for the express purpose of pro cl,:atiing martial law. Witness was summoned to attend tic council in his capacity as a member of the legislature, a- a magistrate, and also as a colonel of militia, under the ViCt.. C Xi. The proclantation of war was agreed to unanimously. It was originally proposed to proclaim the s h.!, county of Surrey, but the governor thought it un nee, -- u. to include Kingston. Went to Morant Bay as a fall colonel of militia. Was present at several Courts mai tial, and was president of several. The court-martial on Gordon consisted of Lieutenant Brand, Lieutenant Errington. and Ensign Kelly. Ensign Kelly is from 35 to 4n years of age. Mr. Stephen cautioned the witness that he was not lonia to answer there queations. tlw question whether persons were hanged in con soievine of the ileci.iun of the court•martial, Mr. Lewis said be would answer that question at proper that, but must now object. nir 'Montag Henry said he was at liberty to decline, but lot to qu.dify the refusal. Mr. Lewis—Then I will answer the question. Several persons were hanged —men and women—murderers. The first I attended was at Fort Antonio, on the 14th Oe. toner, and I attended another the same day at Morant Vay. The first I presided at was also at Morant Bay. I attended courts-niartial up to the 20th. In most cases the other members of the courts-martial were persons eon teeted with the ialamL I cannot recollect whether Colonel Nelson said that he appointed to the court-martial on Cordon the memb ers of whom it consisted, because he thought that Gordon ought to he tried by independent officers rather than by persons connected with the island. I cannot say that I did, or that I did not hear that mid. The court was held in a large building on the wharf or landing place. I was presiding over another court i n th e same building, and during intervals of adjournment and was in and out of the court held on Gordon. I was present at Gordon's defence. I heard a rerun named Testerd examined for him. I had seen him in the town sick. I did not hear Gordon apply to have the trial postponed. I knew Gordon as A member of the Assembly, but I knew nothing of his affairs. I don't know that he lived at Cherry Garden. I don't recollect the date of the last court-martial. I tried Paul Bogle. Ido not remember whether it was before or after the trial of Gordon. Ido not know that he was not taken till afterthe trial of Gordon. I sat at court-martial after Gordon's trial. Bogle was the leader of the insurrection. He was brought to Morantltay. It mighthave been the Etrd or 21th Oust I tried him, but I will not swear. It may Lave been after Gordon's execution. L think it was e (The witness was much pressed on the question whether be had any doubt of it, to which he would give no answer but that he thought it was.) Bogle was brought to the court. martial in custody of the Provost-marshal. I don't recol lect the date of the execution, but it was the same evening that be was tried or the next morning. I saw both the Bogies hung. Bogle's brother, William Bogle, was exe cuted after Gord on ' s trial. They were both tried together and executed at the same time. Mere he was again premed as to whether he had any doubt that both were hanged after Gordon's trial, but would not give any more direct answer than that he thought it was. The last court-martial he held we, a few days after that. He then obtained leave of absence. Was present in the legislature, and proposed a vote of thanks to Colonel Nelson for his services in putting down the insurrection, which was carried unanimously. Also proposed that he should have a sword of honourof the value of 2tlo guineas presented to him for his services rendered to the colony. That also was carried unanimously.) I believe he had the money from the Colonial F u nd. The vote was a sword, hut it was left to him if he preferred plate or any thing else. By Mr. Bristowe—Mr. Brand was not present at the council. I held the court-martial by order of Colonel Nelson. Re-examined be Mr. Fitzjames Stephen—The prisoners who were tried before me and executed were convicted of murder, burglary, arson, and being seen at Morant Bay, taking part in the murders committed there. In short, for taking part in the actual insurrection Yes. I satisfied myself of that by examining witnesses, allowing them to put any questions, to make any state ments, and to call any witnesses, and offering to adjourn the case to call further witnesses. Paul Bogle was hanged fur murder, and being present at the riot and burning at Morant Bay, taking part and giving orders, and being con cerned in the murder of Baron Kcttelholdt and the Rev. Mr. Herschel]. William Bogle was also present at the niur dere at Norma Bay. The council of war was held upon the suggestion of Governor Eyre. The secretary to the executive committee was present, but I cannot say whether any niinutes were taken or not. The proceedings were chiefly v erhal — conve:wational round the table. Gordon, as a member of the legislature, was entitled by law to be summoned to the council of war. I can't tell whether he was summoned or not. He was not there. Could not say whether there was an outbreak at Torrington, or whether that place was attacked by Maroons. Cannot say whether I did or did not try persons for any act of rebellion at Torrington. I tried prisoners brought from all parts of the country. Mr. Augustus Walter Hewitt Lake, reporter, re called—l remember the placard about the state of the island being put in in evidence at the court-martial. It was produersl, to the hest of my recollection, by prevent-marshal. It is my inapreasion that the document contained the date. One was put in and one was read aloud. I think the one that was read aloud did contain the date, 29th July, as the day of the meeting to be held. Much discuredun arose on the admissibility of this evi clenee, Mr. Poland contending that the document pot in vas the evidence before the court-martial, and Mr. Stephen maintaining that anything said at the trial was admissible. The copy put in did not contain the date. Ur. Like read portions of his notes containing the evidence of James Gordon and other witneues before the court martial. It was understood that the object of this evidence was to vary in some points of detail the minutes as returned by the court martial. [The examination was proceeding when our report left.] THE lxv %OLD COL" NTRY.—A special oorrespon drut of the Tinge writes from Killarney :—" About • mile Run t the town yesterday (Saturday) I met a marriage Party, wh o num b ered at least GO, and made up a most pic ture-lue procession. First carte en Irish car, in which wer e the principal peraonages—Norah Spilling a pretty Smile and giving timid looks at the bridegroom, who seemed as bashful as she was. Then followed, crowded with wedding guests, three or four of the country carts, Felting, springless vehicles, which almost make your "me• ache as you watch them pass. A greater novdty still were a dozen or 15 couples on horse ), ck. riding Darby and Joan fashion ; and rune more emetry carts brought up the rear. The women all wore than White cap. ; 1 don t think there was a bonnet among 14 e whole of them. Bright-coloured 'kerchiefs or the hood s of th e com f orta bl e peasant cloaks, protected the h". 1; and as one turned to see the gay procession wind song the cowl, and beard their merry laughter when they were hid from view, it was difficult to believe that a rebel. Low which men of this class were expected to join, was imminent here only • few day. back. Evidently, though /"ni. , na might come and Fenian,. might go. marrying and rring in marriage ware nut things to be hindered by a ROYAL FREE 110!4PITAL, GRAY'S-INN-ROAD.—The lumber of patients relieved at this hospital during the week ending Feb. 16 was 3,715, of which 1,264 were new Caste. THE EXPRESS, TUESDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 19, 1867. ASSOPIATIuy (IF CHAMBERS OP COMMERCE OF THE UNITED EL.VuDu.V.-(THIS DAY.) The annual sittings of the members of this asso ciation were commenceil at 10 &clock this morning at the Wrstminster Palace Hotel. Mr. SAMP3uN S. LtorD, the chairman, presided _ _ _ The following places were represented:—Batley, Belfast, Birmingham, Bradford, Bristol, Cardiff, Coventry, Dar lington, Derby, Dewsbury, Dundee, Glonceider, Cook Halifax, Holmfirth, Huddersfield, hull, Kendal, Leeds , Middlenborough-on-Tees, Newcastle-upon-Tyne Notting ham, Runcorn and Upper Mersey, riouthampt:on. South of `Scotland. Staffordshire Potteries, Wakefield, Wolver hampton, Macclesfield, Falmouth, and Plymouth. The programme includes resolutions on the following subjects—bankruptcy, law reform, tribunals of commerce, registration of partnerships, loans to trading concerns in consideration of a share of the profits, patent law amend ment, registration of trade marks in England, the Bank Charter Act and the currency, improvement in the collec tion of income and assessed taxes, the adoption of the metre system, telegraphic communication, the ad ministration of telegraphic system by Post-office authorities, treaty of commerce with Austria, biter national maritime law, international general average, reduction of ocean postage, alteration in bills of holing, advances by public lean, commissions to harbour authori ties, West Indian and Brazilian mails, government in spectors of shipping at sea ports, merchant shipping courts, government supervision of steean tugs. After the circular convening the meeting haul been read The CHAlittlAN suggested that a report prepared on Russia be adjourned until Mr. Mitchell, the secretary to the Embassy, was present, as that gentleman evinced deep interest in the question. The discussion on the report was accordingly adjourned. The CHAIWIAN acknowledged a communication from Professor Leone Levi inviting the attendance of delegates from the association at a conference to be held this evening at the Society of Arts, on the " metric system and the uniformity of measures, weights, and coins. The annual report was then read. It principally re ferred to the subjects comprised in the resolutions. The CH.IIttIIAN, in moving its adoption, after congratu lating the association on the fact that no decrease had taken place in their numbers, said that they now comprised :12 members, who represented every possible variety of mercantile, manufacturing, mining, and maritime interests in the kingdom. Their experience of these meetings, and of their action elsewhere, led them to entertain a firm belief that the association conduced to harmony amongst the commercial body, and to the matu rity of opinion respecting commercial matters generally. He repudiated the assertion made in some quarters that they were merely ineraintileclubs and not properly elected bodies, and said chambers of commerce were amongst the most regularly elected and regularly organised bodies in existence. The union of chambers of commerce in that association qualified them to be regarded by the government and the public as the true exponents of public opinion on commercial affairs, and Lord Stanley had been pleased to refer to them as such. Mr. Uobden had acknowledged that they had contributed in a great measure to the success of the French treaty, and in later times they had been instrumental in promoting commercial relations with Austria and Prussia. Mr. STEPHEN Wr.sr, of Hull, seconded the motion, which after a short discussion, wail adopted. Mr. AVGVATUR I'HILLIPI4, of Bristol, then brought for ward his resolution with reference to the Bankruptcy Law Reform. It was as follows :—That in the opinion of this association the Bankruptcy Laws of England should be aasimilated as nearly as porlble, in every respect, to the Bankruptcy Laws of Scotland. Mr. W. Wltic, of Bristol, seconded the resolution. The CHAIRMAN, who is the representative of Birmingham, moved the following resolution on the subject:—" That in such reform the following are important desiderata. A.—GeneraL The appoint ment of a chief judge, to secure uniformity of decisions and greater facility and economy in cases of appeal. The consolidation of the entire statute law on this subject into one act. The assimilation, as far as possible, of the statute law on this subject in England, Scotland, and Ireland. B. As respects the Estate.—Provision for the safe, econo mical, and speedy realisation and distribution of the estate. The abolition of the rule by which secured cre ditors are permitted to vote in respect of such part of their claim as is secured in reference to composition deeds. The administration in the Courts of Bankruptcy of the estates of deceased insolvents. The provision of means for the recovery of British bankruptcy assets situate in any part of the British empire, and the endeavour (by nevtiation or otherwise) to obtain means for the recovery of Witish bankruptcy assets situate in foreign countries. That the provisions of the Scottish Law of Bankruptcy (19 and 20 Vic., c. 79) are for the most part (and especially in the mode of realising and distributing the estate) very admirable, and are found by experience to work well. That the present law in reference to deeds of assignment and compositions is meet unsatisfactory and indefinite, and greatly needs amendment." . . The resolution was agreed to. The following resolution, forming part of the series introduced by the representative of Birmingham, was then discussed :—" That it is especially desirable that the pre cise conduct constituting reckless insolvency and fraudu lent bankruptcy should be clearly defined by law (arid this irrespective of the condition of ' intent to defraud'), and that the meeting approve, in the main, of the defini tions of these offences in the French Code de Commerce, Articles 585, 386, 591, 590." Mr. WEST, of Hull, moved, as an amendment, that the 3rd clause of 386, which renders a person punishable for not keeping books, be expunged. Mr. MiLts, of Bristol, moved, as an amendment, the substitution of the word " commend " for " approve " in the resolution, and that the following addition be made— " to the attention of the government and the legislature." The resolution in its original shape was carried, as also the following :—" That the principle of Mat section of the Act of 1861, by which an offence is only punishable fur a misdemeanour if committed within three months prior to bankruptcy, is very objectionable indeed. That it is especially desirable, that the Court of Bankruptcy should not exercise its penal jurisdiction, but that all persons charged with offences rendered penal by the new Bankruptcy Act should be tried before the ordinary criminal tribunals of the country. That, a full inquiry having been made into the existing state of the law and practice of bankruptcy by a select committee of the House of Commons, and such committee having made a report re commending changes in the law, a deputation from the as sociation do wait upon the Lord Chancellor and the At torney-General, and represent to them the urgent need for the thorough reform of the law of bankruptcy, and earnestly request that a bill may be introduced into par liament for that purpose at as early a period as possible, and that every endeavour be made by her Majesty's go vernment to get the same enacted into law during the present session." SUB.VARINE TELEGRAPH COMPANY. (THIS DAY.) The half-yearly meeting of the ahareholders was held at I o'clock at the London Tavern ; Sir J. CARMICHAEL in the chair. The report said that, notwithstanding the almost un paralleled depression of commerce during the six months ending the 31st of December, 1806, the company'f. receipts had exceeded in that period the sum received during the half-year ending the :10th of June last by 2,021/. 6s. 3d. and compared with the nding period of 1865, there was only the small fa ing off of 410/. 14s. But, in consequence of the cost of repairs to cables being much less than in 1865, the profit divisible between the two companies was increased by 1,6461. 10s. 2d. After adding the usual pro portion of the gross receipts to the reserve fund, which now amounted to 24,154/. 14s. Bd., there remained the sum of 14,5741. 12a. 4d. belonging to that company. The interest on the debentures for the half-year amounted to 2,620/. 10a. 2d., and the balance enabled the directors to recommend a dividend at the rate of six per cent. per annum, to carry to the next account 2.W. ls. 7d. The 'CHAIR-NIA; in moving the adoptioncii the report and accounts, regretted that he could not congratulate the shareholders on a progressive increase in the receipts ; but on the other hand, the cause was manifest in the commer cial depression which had prevailed both in England and on the Continent, added to which the weather had been remarkably adverse. In spite of these drawbacks, they had added 2,1145101. to the reserve fund, had paid out of revenue 1,0001. of debenture debt, and were enabled to divide at the rate of 0 per cent. per annum. With returning commercial prosperity the company's busi ness was already improving, and the Paris Exhibition was sure to bring • large accession of business. In April there would be six wires working between Dieppe and Botchy Head, six between Folkston. and Boulogne, and four between Calais and Dover, and he hoped th at in July next the directors would have to pre sent • very favourable report. The report wu adopted and a dividend at the rate of 6 per cent. per annum declared ; after which the proceedings terminated in the usual manner. The Liberti states that Mr. Gordon Bennett, the owner of the Henrietta yacht, has left Paris for Brest, and was to have embarked there in the Pereire for the United States. FI:f18 POLOXI.E. —The Etendard states that the Russian government baa decided on obliterating the name of Poland. From April next the name of " Kingdom of Poland," will be replaced by that of "The Military Dis trict of Wanaw." "The courtesy of the language of exe cutioners," adds the Temps, "ii always an aggravation of the punishment." A GREEK ARCHBISHOP.—The Cretan Assembly have peased a resolution outlawing Palate, Archbishop of Liable, for directing Mustapha Pacha to attack the con vent of Arcadi in which so many Greeks and Turks were killed. The letter of the archbishop is given in the Atlas s journals with the 'reply of the webs. The archbishop is called by the Cretans "an imitator of Judas Iscariot, who for a few pieces of silver betrayed Jesus Christ," and is " in consequence devoted to the execration of the Hellenic race." 00,000' 10,000! 40,300 100,000 4°.?"1 12,5001 10,000 12,000 20. ii:i 6 Oi 10,000! 10,000 00,000 10,000 10.000 : 160,000 00,000 10,000• 00.0001 ii,6661 W,OOO. 20,000, 10.1,1300 6.000 0,000 100.0001 11000001 110,000! i 100, as. 00. 6 - 45:64 wow 16.. ill. .

The English funds are in demand, a: al have improved 1-16 to per cent., but other securities, including British railway stocks, foreign bonds, and banking, financial, and miscellaneous shares are, with a few exceptions, quoted the same as yesterday. The amount of business is small, there being little speculation at the moment. Oreek Bonds are inquired for, upon a statement that the government will formally recognise the loan of 1824 and 1825. No transactions of any importance have yet been reported in the scrip of the new Danubian loan, but the price is nominally quoted 1 to lif prem. There is no new feature in the discount market, the supply of money being still large, while few bills are offered. The general rate for the best paper is 21 to 21 per cent. Consols are now quoted 91 to for money, and 91 1-16 to 1 for the account (March 7). In the foreign stock market tho chief feature is a demand for Greek Bonds, which have risen per cent. Mexican have also improved 4, while Chilian Scrip has declined 4. Turkish Bonds of 1865 are quoted 304 to I ; Greek, 154 to ; Spanish Passive, 22' to h ; ditto Certificates, 1411 to ; Italian of 1861, 53a to 3 ; Mexican, 170 to ; Russian Scrip, 24 to I prem. ; and Chilian Scrip, to per• American securities and Atlantic Cable shares are without variation, with the exception of a rise of per cent. in 5-20 bonds, which are quoted 731 to 74k.

The prospectus of the expected " United Danu bian Principalities Loan" was issued last evening by Messrs. Fruhling and Goschen. The amount is 1,264,420/. stock. It is a distinctive feature of this issue that, besides bonds of 1,0001., 500!., and 1001., there are others of 50/., 201., and M. each• The object of this low denomination apparently is the diffusion of the loan in limited amounts amongst small fundhnlders, especially on the Continent. Besides London, subscription lists are opened in Paris, Frankfort, Berlin, and Bucharest. Separate scrip certificates are to be issued at each place of subscription. The bonds bear 8 per cent. interest from the lst Jan. last. The price of issue is 71 per cent., but the net cost of the 100/. bond, if paid up on allotment under discount at 8 per cent., becomes reduced to about Gsi. Up to Saturday evening the existing Danu bian Seven, per Cent. Loan stood at about 67, with dividend from the lst inst., so that the present loan is offered on relatively much lower terms. The loan is to be redeemed in 23 years, by an accumulating sinking fund, the drawing taking place every year, commencing with December next, and they are of course to be paid off at 100. For the service of the loan, which will require annually 121,9101. (interest and sinking fund), a first mort gage is given on the revenues of certain state domains which are stated to yield about 152,0001. a year, and, in addition, there is "an assignment of about 90,0001. out of Customs revenues pro ducing about 270,0001., on which the 7 per cent. loan of 1864 has a prior hypothecation of 82,4401. Per annum." Tho list is to be eloocd on Thursday, the 21st inst. The mail from Guayaquil has brought a remit tance of 1,2691. 16e. 64. on accountof the dividends on the debt of Ecuador.

Messrs. Boulton and Co. add—" Our crops are coming in very slowly, but they are expected to come up to a fell average." About 10,000 sovereigns from Egypt were sent into the Bank yesterday. The steamer Atrato, from the West Indies, has brought 197,0001., of which 133, 0 10:. is silver and 64,0001. gold. The latter will be sent to the Con tinent. It appears that many of the Mexican dollars which now reach London bear the likeness of the Emperor Maximilian, and are not suitable for transmission to China, because, unlike the old coinage of Mexico, they do not contain any gold. The Great Western of Canada Railway traffic re turn for the week ending February 1 shows an increase of 981., compared with the corresponding period of 1866. . _ - The annual meeting of proprietors of the Bank of Australasia is called for the 18th of March.

This day a meeting of bond and shareholders in ' the Italian Irrigation Company was held at the London Tavern, Mr. Setaer in the chair. The CHAIRMAN said that the meeting was called to consider the extraonlinary conduct of the Italian government towards the company. By the conven tion with the Italian government they were entitled to a minimum interest of 6 per cent. on the opening of the canal. The canal was opened on the 12th of April, 1866, but not one shilling of the interest guaranteed had been paid by the Italian government. (Shame.) It was only necessary to expose such conduct to have it condemned by every honest man. It appeared to be the object of the Italian government to wear out the patience of the bond and shareholders, in order that they might be able to buy the canal at their own price. He com plained of the non-presentation of the Sella-conven tion to the Italian parliament, which prevented the company from being able to meet the claims of their creditors. As a means of bringing the Italian government to a sense of their duty, be suggested that the supply of water by the canal should le stopped--that the conduct of the government in this matter should be exposed on all the bourses of Europe, and that a petition should be presented to the King. (Hear, hear.) A discussion took place in which the conduct of the Italian government was freely condemned, and the meeting was still deliberating on the course of action to be adopted when we went to press. ANOTHER DEATH PROM WANT IN TEE EAST•END. Mr. Humphreys, the coroner, held an inquest at the Bricklayers' Arms, Charles-street, Hackney-road, last evening, touching the death through destitution of a woman named Ellen Russell, aged 66 years. Jane Agland, 22, Coldharbour-street, Bethnal-green, said that deceased lodged with her for the last 13 year.. She was the widow of an umbrella-maker, and she supported herself while she was able to get work as a charwoman. For the last six weeks she earned no thing. She had been ailing a little. She lived upon one or two 2s. tickets given to her by the St. Thomas's School people, and she pawned her clothes to pay witness the Is. ed. a week rent. She applied to the parish for relief ; the guardians refused her relief but offered her the house. She would not go into the workhouse, and she got nothing. She pawned all her things. The furniture left in her room would not fetch fie. She had hardly any thing on her during the cold weather. She had no blanket, only a sheet to cover her at night. Her death was due to want. Witness gave her tea often. When she was ill, • ' month ago, the parish surgeon attended her, and he advised her to go into the infirmary, but nothing would induce her to go into the workhouse. Mary Ann Agland said that upon her return from work on last Wednesday evening, her mother (the last witness) asked her to go up and see what was the matter with the deceased, " She was groaning so." Witness said, " Have you not been up before to-day r and her mother said she had not. When witness went up she found de ceased lying insensible on the floor, with the sheet only covering her. The parish doctor was bent for, but she , only lived till Friday. Mary Wicks, a neighbour, gave corroborative evidence as to the suffering of the deceased. She had only a few rags for covering, and she was half starved. A short time , ago she said she would destroy herself ; that a penny worth of stuff would end everything. She was cast down by the death of a daughter at Christmas. She complained a month ago of the want of food. Witness asked the parish doctor to allow her sonic nourishment, but he said that he dared not. . . Mr. W. duchy, a Scripture reader, said that he used to visit the deceased, and he used to procure her tickets fur about a shilling's worth of food a week. He thought she earned about 6d. or 9d. a week beyond that. He thought her death was due to destitution. She was always sober. She got an order to go into the workhouse, hut she said she would rather die than go in, and she tore the order up. Her room had always a most destitute and desolate appearance. Ellen Gibbons, • married daughter of the deceased, living in Westminster, said that she was quite unable to assist her. Witneu believed she died of want. Mr. H. Lyle, parish surgeon, said that he attended the deceased a month ago for bronchitis. He asked her to go into the workhouse, and she refused. On Wednesday last he was called to her, and found her dying. He gave her stimulants, &c. She died on Friday from effusion of serum into the ventricles of the brain, and into the cavity of the lungs. The sufferings described by the witnesses would accelerate death. • i The Coroner having 'unlined up, The jury returned a verdict, " That deceased was found dying, and she soon after died, from effusion of serum on the brain, accelerated by want of food and by general privations."
