In answer to Mr. Barker, the complainant stated that b s n ow felt very ill, and could hardly turn in bed, his ode was so bed. He was not aware that he had given the he "t provocation for him to commit so unmanly an smolt on him. Jo. Ricketts said he should be very soon able to show, and that out of the complainant's own mouth, that the de fendant had received great provocation, and that what the eamplainant had received from the defendant he had most richly deserved. He then asked the complainant if he bad not worked for the defendant and been discharged, sad if he had not been in the habit of visiting the defendant 's wife. The complainant replied that he had been employed by the defendant and had been discharged, and that he bad seen the defendant's wife. Mr. Ricketts—And have you not been in the habit of car rying on a clandestine correspondence with her ! Witness (Isughing)—Oh, ye., and I have received wend letters from her—one so late as last week. Mr. Ricketts—You have been in the constanthiliii. visiting the defendant's house to see his wife, when the defendant has been away from home. The complainant—Yes, and when he has come borne I have gone into the lodgers' rooms so that he should not see me. Mr. Ricketts—Perhaps you will tell the court why you went to see the defendant's wife when you know you were forbidden by the defendant to go near his house. The complainant—Well,l shan'ttell you,but I will leave you to guess. It was only out of a little piece of friend. ; The complainant, in answer to further questions by Mr. Ricketts, said that he had got over the area railings of the defendant's house,and that once the defendant caught him there and turned him out. He had received letters from the defendant's wife oouched in the most endearing terms and be could produce them. He was no relation either to the defendant or his wife. Mr. Ricketts said that he could not, of course, justify the defendant taking the law into his own hands, but still after what he had elicited from the complainant, he felt sure that the magistrate would only inflict a nominal r. Barker said the complainant's conduct was dis graoeful, and fined the defendant 2s. 6d. The fine was at once paid ; and as the complainant was leaving the court he was hooted and hissed. WESTMINSTER. SINGULAR APPLICATION.— AN AWKWARD PREDICAMINT. A very respectable-looking man, having the appearance of an artisan, came to this court and requested the magis trate to *gist him out of the following awkward predica ment : Ile said he had a child in his possession which he was unable to dispose of. It had been deserted by its mother, and the pariah refused to offer any assistance. Mr. Arnold—Who is the father of it? Applicant—l don't know. Mr. Arnold—Who is the mother? Applicant—l don't know except by eight. Mr. Arnold—Then what have you got to do with the child ? Applicant—l don't want to have anything to do with the child ; I want to get rid of it but I can't ; that's what I come here for. It's very hard to be obliged to keep an other person's child. I have three of my own, and my wife's just ready to go to bed with the fourth. Mr. Arnold—You don't know the father of the child, end only know the mother by sight. How came you with the child? Applicant—l got it entirely by accident. A friend of mine and my wife's had the child from the mother to nurse. She was suddenly taken with a paralytic fit, and being unable to attend to the child sent it round to my wife for the moment. The mother of the child is a stranger to us, and asked us if we would be good enough to keep it until the following Saturday, but that's nine weeks ago, and I have never seen or heard of her since. Mr. Arnold—Don't you think it was very foolish to take this child without making some inquiries about it or the mother? Applicant —We naturally thought that the woman would come to look after her own child. Mr. Arnold—lt was very imprudent not to make some inquiries. Applicant—We did not intend to keep the child. The friend from whom we took it did not recover, but died, and so we are left with the child. What am Ito do, your worship ? Mr. Arnold—lnquire of the relieving officer of your pariah where the board of guardians ait, and go before them and state the circumstance. MARYLEBONE. STABBING DILLON, THE PUGILIST. Edward Pritchard, aged ill, of 59, Hampstead-road, greengrocer, was charged before Mr. Mansfield with felo niously assaulting James Dillon by stabbing him with a knife with intent to do him grevious bodily harm. Mr. Ricketts attended for the prisoner. Henry Hoare, police-sergeant 710 A, said, about 1 this morn ing he heard loud cries of "murder" and "police" in Drum mond-street, and on going there he found Dillon, the pugi list, ouvered in blood. He said the prisonerhad stabbed him. He seemed very weak from loss of blood, and was at once removed to the hospital where he now is. The pri soner was taken into custody and on the way to the station-house be said Dillon struck him first. The prisoner. was drunk. The following certificate was handed in by the witness : " This is to certify that James Dillon is an inmate of this hospital suffering from a stab in the arm, and is unable to leave. " MARCUS BECK, M.R.C.S., House-surgeon. " University College Hospital, June 6." Mr. Mansfield remanded the prisoner for seven days. Mr. Ricketts applied that bail be taken for the prisoner. Mr. Mansfield said ho could not accede to that till he knew whether Dillon was out of danger. WANDSWORTH. MURDER OF A HUSBAND AT ruorwm THE Al Jane Cue/ammo placed in the dock for the third time to answer the charge of attempting to murder her husband by cutting his throat with a razor, at No. 2, College street, Putney. Inspector Usher produced a medical certificate stating that Henry Cushion was progressing favourably, but was not yet in a fit condition to leave the infirmary. Mr. Ingham then granted another remand. Inspector Usher informed the magistrate that the air still escaped from the man's throat. The prisoner was then removed. HAMPSTEAD. HEARTLESS ROBBERY FROM A Hoye.' A young woman named Hannah King, who had been an inmate of the Home for Killen Women, in Church-row, Hampstead, was charged with stealing various articles of jewellery, and a new silk dress, the property of Mrs. Goulding, the matron of the Home. This was a remarkable ease. The prisoner had been in the Home some months. On Tuesday week Mrs. Goulding went out, and the prisoner accompanied her to the omnibus, On her return she told the Assistant Matron that " Mother" had given her leave to go out to buy a book-marker. She went out afterwards apparently with a large crinoline, and did not return. When the matron came home she found all her jewellery gone ; watches, chains, rings, k.e. One of the committee happened to be at the Home, and was told of the robbery. The same night he was in Oxford-street and saw the prisoner dressed out. He brought her back at eleven o'clock, and she was given tato custody. She was wearing the silk dress and some articles of jewellery which she gave up, and Sergeant Mason, 28 8, had found the other articles pledged the same day and they were now produced. The prisoner had taken a room in Praed-street where some articles were found. The Home was one of 12 founded by the Rescue Society. The prisoner was brought before the magistrates (Mr. Marshall, Mr. Prance, and Mr. Reed), and after the several witnesses were examined she was fully committed for trial at the sessions. LONDON AND NORTH WESTERN RAILWAY ( THIS DAY.) A special general meeting of proprietors was held to-day at the Euston Terminus, Mr. RICHARD MOON in the chair, for the purpose of creating new capital, not ex ceeding 1,118,0001., in pursuance of powers granted by parliament, under various acts passed in the year 1865. A resolution in accordance was proposed by the CHAIR MAN, who stated that there was no ground other than the panic why the price of stock should have fallen, for so railway stock showed so well as to its pre sent and future prospects. There had been, he believed, some misunderstanding as to the issue of the new stock, but the two months which would be given to those who desired it to pay the calls would, he presumed, give time for the passing away of the present monetary difficulty. Those who desired to do so mild pay up in June, while those who preferred it would have till the Ist of Au7ust, paying interest at 7i per cent., which would about cover the dividend. . . After some discussion the resolution was carried. Previous to the special meeting, a Wharncliffe meeting was held, at which two bills now before parliament, one for making a railway from the Merthyr,Tredegar, and Aber gavenny Railway, near the Brynmaur station, to Bleene von, and for other purposes ; and the other for authorising arrangements between the North Western and Charing cross Railway Company and the London and North Western Railway Company and the South Eastern Railway Com pany, and for other purposes—were approved of. In regard to this latter bill FL discussion arose, in the course of which the chairman dwelt on the importance of the proposed line to the London and North Western and the South &Worn Railways, which it would unite • and it was ex tenthat the London and North We stern and South rn were not under the agreement to find capital for construction, but when it was constructed, were to Paraetee 5 per cent. to the extent of 20,0001. each ltogether 40,000/.} to make up the deficiency of earnings Then , however, could be no doubt that the earnings would be more than sufficient.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.—(THIS DAY.) The SPILL= took the chair at Ave minutes past 12 o'clock. The Colnbrook Railway Bill was read a third time, and passed. THE HOLDERNESR EMBANKMENT AND ____ RECLAMATION BILL On the order of the day for the second reading of this bill, Mr. NORWOOD said the bill was opposed by all the public bodies in Hull, and by the Board of Trade, because in their opinion the effect of the works would be to silt up the river and impede the navigation. Ho moved that the bill be read a second time this day six months. Mr. WATKIN said the bill was supported by the in habitants of Grimsby. The effect of the bill would be to narrow the channel and thereby increase the scour. He submitted that the bill should be allowed to go before a committee. Sir J. TROLLOPS thought the bill should be allowed to go before a committee. et. After somefurther discussion, in the course of which Mr. St. GIBBON opposed the bill on the ground that the recla 60 - mation of the land would injure the navigation, the SO scheme was condemned by the surveyor of the Board of Trade, by the Trinity Board, and the Humber Conservancy. ;4 The house divided: For the second . reading Against t. REAL ESTATE INTESTACY BILL. et. Mr. L KING moved the second reading of this bill. a t. He said the object was to assimilate the law relating to ht. real property to that which prevailed with regard to per- Si. swat property. The question was what sort of will the St. state should make for a man who himself made no will, so far as regarded the real estate. If a man possessed r i z of personal property died intestate, one-thud went B t , to the widow and two-thirds to the children, and gt, in ease there were no children one-half went to the St. widow and one-half to the next of kin ; but if the property St. he was possessed of were real property, the whole 84 . of it went to the eldest son, and the wido w and y oun g er st St• children were left unprovided for. It might be at . objected that the widow would gets her third, at, but in nine cases out of ten the dower was St. barred. To show the injustice of the present law he St. cited a cue in which a husband inves ted money 8,,,t that came by his wife in the p urchase of land 1; which offered a fair investment. He died lutes- lot tate, and a nephew of his took the estate, the 100 widow being left wholly nnprovided for, and she had to go 10 out to service in order to obtain a livelihood. This was St. one of many cases of hardship that were continually a t arisina. The arguments that had been used against w this bill were that it was a bill against the law of en- St. mogeniture. (Hear, hear.) But he contended that since St. the statute of Henry VIII., which allowed land to be St. willed, there had been no law of primogeniture in this 25 country. Another objection to the bill was that it substi- St. toted the French-system, but it did nothing of the kind. It at , did not interfere with settlements or entails, but it merely 25 provided that the same principle which applied es to personal property should be applied to real St. property. Another argument against the bill was 1 0 that the bill was a bill against the aristocracy of the coun try. But it was nothing of the kind. It would not affect st the aristocracy because, with scarcely= exoeption,he might St. say with no exception, the estates of the aristocracy were St. all settled and entailed, and this bill did not interfere with St. settlements and entails. Mr. B. HOPE moved that the bill be read a second time St ' St. that day six months. [Left sitting.] st LATEST SPORTING INTELLIGENCE I; (ET ILICTEIC TZIAGRAPH.) WINDSOR MEETING.-(THIS DAY.)

The stock and share markets are inactive to-day, yet the tendency generally is rather better than yesterday. Consols are firm, and have risen 1-16 per cent. for the account. British railways are steady, but a slight reduction has occurred in some of the foreign securities. Bank shares show firm ness, and an advance has taken place in Agra and IfLurterman's and Alliance. In the market for financial shares, a fall of about 15s. is observable in Credit Fonder and Mobilier. This is settling day in the funds, but the account proves to be light one. The discount market is quiet to-day, and freely suppleid with money. The general charge for the best paper is si per cent. In the Stock Exchange short loans on English government securities are obtainable at 6 per cent., and the rate is expected to recede to 6 later in the day, owing to the abund ance of capital offering. The Liverpool cotton market opened flatly this morning, and prices were fractionally lower. The sales of the day are expected to reach 8,000 bales. Consols are now quoted 851 to 1, ex div., for money and 861 for the new account (July). The foreign stock market is dull, with few tran sactions. Brazilian scrip has declined 1 per cent., Italian of 1861 1, and Spanish Certificates f Turkish of 1865, Spanish Passive, and Mexican exhibit 1,0 alteration. Turkish Bonds of 1862 are now quoted 56 to 57 ; ditto of 1865, 29 to 1; Greek, II to 1 ; Spanish Passive, 18} to f ; ditto Certi ficates, 131 to f ; Italian of 1861, 35f to 361 ; Brazilian scrip, Bto 7 diß. ; and Mexican, 17 to 1. American securities have declined per cent. 5-20 Bonds are now quoted 64 to 1; Erie Rail way shares, 401 to 41} ; and Illinois Central, 74f to 75f. The Swiftaure has arrived from Melbourne, but has brought only 13 ounces of gold. International Financial shares are now quoted to ft dis. ; London Financial, 14 to 13 dis.; General Credit, 22 to die. ; Imperial Mercantile, 91 to 83 dis. ; Credit Foncier, 2i to Overend, Gurney, and Co., 18 to 16 dis. ; and National IDiscount, 6} to 2 prem. Including 120,0001. sent in yesterday, the Bank of England has purchased upwards of one million of gold since the date of the last re turn. Moreover, the extraordinary sum of fully 800,0001. arrived yesterday by one vessel from New York ; 400,0001. more is known to be coming from the same quarter, and remittances are on the way from numerous other points, specie being naturally resorted to by foreign remitters at a time when mercantile bills are regarded with dis trust. There is thus a prospect that an additional million in gold will reach the Bank of England between now and to-morrow week. At the moment, however, the news of the abandonment of the proposed Conference causes all this to count for little. The general market remains quiet, with an abundant supply of money, but discounters do not take bills below 9} per cent., owing to the prevailing belief that, notwithstanding the extraordinary influx of gold, the Bank directors will abstain from lowering the rate of discount til next week. Should this view prove accurate, there is a prospect that the Bank's resources will be so greatly swelled by that time as to suggest a reduc tion in the minimum of 2 per cent., instead of 1 — namely, to 8 per cent. It is scarcely necessary to remark, that the legitimate trade of the country is greatly checked by the present severe restrictions. A large amount of Indian hills fall due on Saturday next. The amount of gold bought by the Bank yes terday was 120,0001., making an aggregate of 1,026,0001. since last Wednesday. The steamer City of New York has arrived from New York with 800,600/. in specie, and a further s sum of 400,000/. is known to be on the way to this country from the same quarter. Much of this will go into the Bank. Remittances are also constantly coming forward from Turkey, yid Marseilles. The foreign exchanges yesterday were quoted about the same as last Friday, with the exception of Austria and Italy, which showed a decline. The quotations were as follow : Amsterdam, 3 months, 12 to 12.1 ; ditto, short, 11.17 to 11.171 ; Rotterdam, 3 months, 12 to 12.1 ; Antwerp, 3 months, 2150 to 25.60 ; Brus sels, 3 months, 25.50 to 25.60 ; Hambro and Altona, 3 months, 13.81 to 13.91 ; Berlin,Cologne,&c., 3 months, 6.28 to 7.0 ; St. Petersburg, 3 months, 25 to 241 ; Paris, short, 25.10 to 25.22 i ; ditto, 3 months, 25.40 to 25.50 ; Marseilles, 3 months, 25.40 to 25.50 ; Frankfort-on-the-Maine, 3 months, 1181 to 1181 ; Vienna, 3 months, 13.40 to 13.60 ; Mate, 3 months, 13.40 to 13.60 ; Madrid, 3 months, 461 to 46 ; Santander, 3 months, 461 to 46 ; Cadiz, 3 months, 471 to 47 • Seville, 3 months, 47 1 to 47 ; Malag a, 3 months, 47 'to 461 ; Valencia, 3 months, 47 to 461 ; Barcelona, 3 months, 471 to 47 ; Bilbao, 3 months , 47 to 461 Valladolid, 3 months, 46 nom. ; Saragossa, 3 months, 47 to 461 • Leghorn, 3 months, 28 to 29 nom. ; Genoa, 3 months, 28 to 29 nom. ; Naples, 3 months, 21 to 29 nom. ; Palermo, 3 months, 28 to 29 nom. ; Messina, 3 months, 28 to 29 nom. ; Lisbon, 90 days date, 511 to 51; Oporto, 90 days date, 511 to 51. An advertisement has been issued by the Bank of London, stating that "in consequence of the stoppage of the Consolidated Bank (Limited), and of an order made by the Court of Chancery to wind up the Bank of London under The Companies Act, 1862,' the extraordinary general meeting of shareholders of the Bank of London, convened for Saturday, the 9th day of June instant, will not be held." Accompanying this notice the directors have issued thesul:;join — ed exculpatory statement . I am instructed to call your attention to the above ad vertisement, announcing that the extraordinary meeting di. of the shareholders called fur the 9th inst. will not be held. The unexpected stoppage of the Consolidated Bank has, in fact, put an end to both the objects for which the meeting was convened, the directors having been advised that, owing to the complication caused by that event, it was useless to resist the winding- up by the court, ard an order to that effect having been aoconlingly made by the Vice-Chancellor on Saturday last, Mr. Coleman has to-day been confirmed by the court as official liquidator, and the directors consider his name as a guarantee that the estate will be got in and distributed with the utmost practicable efficiency and despatch. The directors will be di' desirous of meeting the shareholders at the earliest moment at which they can place before them a definite statement of accounts ; but it must be evident that, until some decision has been arrived at in what manner the arrangement with the Consolidated Bank is to be dealt with, no reliable account can be laid before the proprietors. In the meantime the directors wish to explain that the calamity which has overtaken the bank was entirely occa sioned by the loss of public confidence consequent upon the panic, and upon its having b ecome known that a con siderable amount had been invested or, advanced by the bank upon securities inconvertible at the present time. With this exception, the business was of the soundest possible character. No losses of any moment had been sustained, and the other meets were held in as convertible a form as usual with bankers. A considerable portion of the advances on inconvertible secu rities is covered by the guarantee of the Im p e Credit Association, besides securities given by them, anti upon these together there is no fear of any loss. A large part of the remainder is also covered by guarantees and other home securities, which it is believed will ultimately produce 20s. in the pound ; and the balance, depending upon the produce of American securities, is so compara tively limited in extent , th at even assuming (wuhich such the directors by no means anticipate) an entire lossupon securities, it would fall within the limits of the reserve fund. Besides the capital and reserve fund, there is an amount exceeding 50,0001. of unappropriated profits in hand. The directors do not desire to sit in judgment upon other parties, but they must be permitted in their own justi fi cation to observe that the events which have happened at the Consolidated Bank did not occur to them even as a potWble contingency. The question of acceptances stood over for further consideration on the evening of the 22nd of May ; and though the Consolidated Back had objected from the first to take a certain portion of these acceptances, it was not all anticipated that they would refuse to take the larger part of them. The directors anticipated that, if any *diffieulty arose, and was found to become pressing, the Consolidated Bank, relying upon the security of the investments belonging to this bank, and upon the liability of its shareholders, would 90 22 126 e 124 ll 16 4 6 67 TO TO II 16 16 112 1 861 14 3 6 i 6 7 122 122 122 121 63f e4l is 0 14 ts no DO 96 96 ss 17 1161 1161 02 22 60 6/ 125 121 2 II Pr 1 1 Inn 83 86 122} MI 14 11 92 Ot 54 56 14 I 6 108 109 70 72 107 108 86 is 10 11 pm 119 122 1 2 pm 1 2 pm 78 75 108 112 148 150 66 87 47 66 69 70 4 e 144 148 -- i - $ P No los 62 64 BRITISH POSSESSIONS.

The dealings in British mining shares to-day are limited, and prices have scarcely varied.

The directors do not wish to evade the responsibility resting upon them for having permitted the management to enter into transactions whit h hays proved so (Heart:cm, and from which they are amongst the principal uniforms ; but their efforts for months past have been unceasingly directed to retrieve the position of the bank. In this they had to some extent succeeded, and they believe that, but for the suddenness and violence of the panic, baffling all their calculations, their exertions would have resulted satisfactorily.' W. 0. Aummr.a, Secretary. June 5, 1866.

COMMERCIAL AND MARKETS. MARK-LANE.—(THIS DAY.) Coastwise and by land carr iag &rex and Kent were the arrivals of wheat fresh up to our market to-day fro only moderate ; but, on the whole, in good condition. The attendance of millers being small, all descriptions met a slow sale ; nevertheless, Monday's quotations were sap ported. Moderate supplies of foreign wheat were on sale. The trade ruled heavy at about stationary prices. Floating cargoes of wheat met a slow sale, at the late re duction in value. In other kinds of produce, afloat, very little business was transacted. There was a fair average quantity of barley on the stands ; but the supply was chiefly composed of foreign parcels. The demand was inactive, at late rates. Malt supported late rates with a limited inquiry. Oats were in good supply, and sluggish request, on former terms. Beans charged hands steadily at extreme quotations For peas the trade ruled firm, at quite late currencies. Both English and foreign flour moved off slowly ; prices, however, remained unchanged. The seed trade was dull, at about previous currencies. Cakes were heavy, at the recent decline in prices. ARRIVALS OF GRAIN, &c.. INTO LONDON, BY WATIgli CARRIAGE, FROM JUNE 2 TO JUNE 6, INCLUSIVE.
