CLERKENWZLI... ANOTHER NECI.T APPRENTICE. AVlrard Kemp, of 23, Whitford-street, Totten } ~,,rt.raol, an apprentice, appeared before Mr. Cooke t ,„ c .a,T a complaint which charged him with committini at assault on his master, Mr. John Tickner, cooper, of . Caledonian-crescent, and ?J.t, Pluvair-street, srees.town. Mr. Ricketts, solicitor, appeared for the complainant; aid Mr. Fro.4.4att, solicitor, for the defendant. Thv complainant, who stated that he still felt the effects of the Mow. mid the assault was committed so far back as the I , th of last month. At about seven o'clock in the eve ning he and the apprentice were at work together when he to the apprentice that he should require a larger rivet than the one ho had brought him. The defendant said that there were none larger, and on being told to go and look for one he told the master to look himself. The mater went to push by him, and in doing so touched blm, on which he took up a large hammer and said, " If you shore ..r.lin4t me again I'll cleave your skull open." He went to lac hold of the defendant, on which the defendant crack him with the hammer behind the ear, and caused such a swelling that he wag afterwards compelled t, g.. to a surgeon's. The complainant, when he sus struck, laid hold of the defendant's arms ' and a straggle took place, in which they both fell, and whilst the emnplainsint was holding him the defendant kept punching the complainant in the face. In the struggle the defendant's shirt got torn, Whenever the defendant was spoken to by the complainant about his conduct he said that be did not are about doing a month. The com plainant had frequently had to complain of the defendant's conduct, but this wan the first time that he had brought bus before a magistrate. Mr. Frompitt eked the complainant if he was drunk on the night in question, and being sumwered in the negative, asked the magistrate to inflict a fine, and not send the lad to pi kon. Ile would suggest that the parents of the lad should pay the master a sum of money and cancel the in. /lecture, and thin put an end to any further unpleasant- Dees. Mr. Ricketts said could not 'Tree to the indenture being cancelled, and had to press for punishment, as the de fendant was very saucy, and said that if be could not give the complainant a good thrashing he would get his brother to do so. Mr. Cooke ssid he should not inflict • fine ; for appren tices must be taught that they are bound to obey the lawful commands of their masters. In this case a violent assault had been committed, and he should not be doing b;s duty if he did not pass • heavy sentence. The defendant was then sent to the House of Correction with hard labour for sit weeks. The defendant, who treated the matter with indiffer ence, was then removed. WORSHIP-STREET. PAWNBROKERS AND THEIR CUSTOMERS. ~.,-.-.... Chariesiddi-randEdward Coulson were charged before Mr. Newton with conspiring to defraud a pawnbroker named naval!, carrying on business in the Mile-end-road, by falsely representing the value of property offered in Pledge- Mr. Abbott appeared for Mr. Upsall, and Mr. Lewis, jun., of Ely-place, for the defendant.. Apparently the circumstances had excited considerable interest, and a great number of the trade were present. It was shown by the evidence that on the 19th ult. the defendant went to the complainant's shop and asked an advance of 61. on a watch, which they alleged to be of IS carat gold. Mr. llpsall. although a hall mark denoting such was on it, perceived that it wan not genuine, and re fused the loan, at the same time expressing an opinion that there was not any, or if any, but little, gold about the article. He was then asked to advance any sum be pleased on it ; but he not only absolutely refused to do thil,—he reformed to part with it. A police-constable was fetched by Suter. Mr. Upeall gave both into custody for attempting to defraud, and at the station-house the watch wav tested by another of the trade, who declared it to be brass. Mr. llpaall, however, did not press the charge, having businem of importance in the country, but told defendants to try and get their living in a more lionmt manner, so that matter ended ; but shortly after ward., to his great indignati o n, b e wag informed that the same men bad at another pawnbroker's offered the watch in pledge for 41., and obtained it ; he therefore resolved to take up the matter again as a protection both to the pub lic and the trade. incrosa.ex ar;ination, Mr. Upeall said he had received a solicitor's letter, threatening him with an action on the pat: of the defendants for the imputation against them, sod had jestingly asked if a sovereign would eatisfy them, but entertained no serious thought of such a step. The watch was produced in court. Mr. Lewis defied any one to stand forward and deny it was a gold one. _ _ DeieTscianteskshed it to lie tested. This was done. Some o mienced hands declared there might be a vary little, o. assn that there was an absence of any. Thomas Piper, on the part of defendants, declared that he had offered 21. 10s. for the 18 carat gold watch at a public sale. He abroad have sold it for a profit, and scald not go any higher for it. Defendant Satter bought it for 31. Mr. Lewis remarked that Mr. 'Trysail had taken up this matter from fear of the impending action, not for the protection of the trade or the pnblic, and as regarded conspiracy between the defendants, there was an entire absence of such a thing. Suter bapnened to w.int a little money. Coulson obliged him by offering to pledge his watch, and on this only, for they are not shown to bare been seen together on any other occasion, they are charged with conspiracy. Mr. Abbott observed that it woold not do to gloss over the matter in that way ; the practice was of immense im portance to the trade, and in that respect Mr. Upsall was alone influenced. Mr. Newton mid his mind had been made up from the first. The facts were dead against Mr. Lewis, and the witness Piper alone proved it. He warn present when the watch was purchased, stopped bidding at 21. 10s., and saw it bought fee 10s. more by those who afterwards represented it as of 18 carat gold, although they moat have known it to be compar.dy worthlere. It was clear to him that de fendants bad been acting in complicity, and he should send them for trial, admitting them to bail. Mr. Lewis was understood to withdraw from the case. Amuse rte E-tenrc or A Coirrter. —During the time the convicts employed on the extension works, St. Mary's Island, for the enlargement of Chatham Dockyard, were engaged at their work yesterday morning, one of the number. a convict named John Hawkins , under sentence of 10 years' penal servitude. attempted to make his escape in a eery daring manner. The convict, who was employed at that part of the works in which brick - making is carried on, had contrived to fabricate a kind of smock frock out of the sheet used in his cell, and had also obtained an old cap, some pieces of oakum beneath his cap being made to do duty as a wig to disguise the closely-cut hair of the convicts. Thus , lisguised, he attempted to pass out from the works with the workmen, in the hope of eluding the vigilance of the sentries and convict guards, but was detected before he could get clearly off the works, and conveyed to the convict establishment, where be will undergo the usual punishment awarled to convicts attempting their escape, aad will afterwards be required to work some months in chain s .

THE EXPRESS, THURSDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 19, 1867. ITALIAN IRRIGATION COMPANY-(CANAL CAVOCR).-(THIS DAY). A general meeting of the shareholders was held at I o'clock, at the offices of the Company, 7, Crosby square, "for the purpose of electing a permanent com mittee, and to take such other steps as may be deemed necessary." The chair was taken by Mr. IYr. Beaten. The CHAIRMAN said they now met under painful cir cumstances, and circumstances of great disappointment. They had invested in a foreign land a good deal of money, ' partly out of sympathy with Italy, and on the faith of a guarantee. They had completed the canal, which was miles in length and would irrigate 300,000 acres of land previously without any such means of irrigation. The canal had been opened with great eclat, and here they were, with their property taken from them, denuded of their charter without any fault on their own part, to take steps for secui:ng their rights from the Italian government. He then read the following report signed by himself : "In compliance with the resolution passed at the general meeting of the shareholder' of this company, held let the London Tavern 26th July last; when you did me the honour to appoint me to represent the body of shareholders at this ci:sis of the affairs of the company, I taz leave to I repro. that every possible means has been taken to annul the bankruptcy and to restore the charter, but without mecum We have represented to the Italian go verament in the strongest manner that the directors were prepared to carry out the arrangement proposed and sane ' Honed by the minister of finarce, by which all differences and difficuldes would have been set at rest, and the credit of the company and of the government of Italy would have been in some degree re-established. We have shown to the King's ministers that the whole of the perplexities of this undertaking are traceable to the non-fulfilment, on the part of the government, of promises solemnly made by them, but not fulfilled ; and the directors did trust that the preaent First Minister, Signor Rattazzi, would have "iterfered and prevented a catastrophe so disastrous to the bona-fide investors in Italian securities. The directors deeply deplore to report that no countenance nor aid was received by them from that government in their endeavour to annul the bankruptcy by which the charter of the company, its rights and pllvileges, all that consti tuted property in the concern, have been placed in peril if not ruthlessly swept away. For even the guarantee of the government, on the faith of which millions of British capital have been invested, was based upon the charter of the company whieh bankruptcy destroys. It is confidently alleged that this bankruptcy was not confirmed without the concurrecce of the Italian government, we trust for the honour of the King and of the Italian nation this is not true, for not a single person who invested his money in this great undertaking would ever have done so had he imagined that at the instance of a local creditor, a concern which bears a government guar antee could be destroyed by bankruptcy. A reite ration of the farts of the case will show bow unjustly the company has been treated, after havMe practically accomplished one of the greatest works of irrigation the world has ever seen, entirely with out the aid or the expenditure of one penny by the Italian government. In 1862 the company was moorporated, the milinal capital being in shares (1,000,0000 and bonds (2,200,0001.), making 3,200,0001., beallng • minimum guarantee of 6 percent. The capital was to be applied partly tho purchase of the crown canals, 812,000/. being paid to the government, although these caraLt were really not worth more than half that amount, the remainder in the construction of the Grand Canal, 52 miles in length, and sulaidialy channels. The Grand Canal was to he made in four years, it was actually built and formally °perml in lest than that time, thus affording the means of securing increased rental from the land within its in fluence, variously eatimatcd at from 500,0001. to 800,000/. per annum. The Italian government were fully aware that the original capital was insufficient, they therefore, through the ministers of the crown, authorised a further capital of 960,000/, to be raised by means of the " Sella conven tion," which convention, signed by two ministers of state, has since been repudiated, although it was well known to the Italian government that the company had raised large sums of money on the security of that very convention for the purpose of pushing on the works of the Grand Canal. The government have further unjustly refused to acknowledge the Grand Canal in exercise, although it is well known to have been open in its entire length. and working, since April, 1866. The difficulties of the company were, therefore, inevitable, and are entirely owing to the non-fulfilment of the promise; of the Italian govern. ment. The shareholders now that the bankruptcy is con fi rmel, has iog been deprived of their just rights, aro entitled to demand from the Italian government the return of their money invested, to secure which the election of a perms. ment committee of influential shareholder" is summated. In the meantime I am happy to inform the meeting that a commission has been appointed by the government to inquire if the camel has commenced working, with a view, we understand, of making some propositions. I only hope that they will be such as will redeem the credit of that government and be satisfactory to the large class of investors in this country. It has been alleged that the canal is not duly finished ; but it has been admitted by the government that to execute those works which they deem requisite for the required completion, a sum of not more than 1,500,000 f. ( 60,0001 .) is needed. It is su ffi ci e nt to say in reply that the government have in their own bands aa amount in coupons unpaid since the opening of the Grand Canal far in excess of that sum. Our directors in Italy are incessant in their endeavours, and personally I have held myself constantly at liberty to proceed there, should there be a prospect of settlement. I would respectfully suggest that the com mittee to which I have referred, acting in conceit with the directors, and supported by various holders throughout Great Britain and Ireland, should have ample power and means to press without ceasing their firm demand upon the Italian government, and I hope that ere long we shall be able to report to you that our labours have not been in vain." The chairman added that he was exceedingly desirous that nothing should be done or said that could damage their position, and he would suggest that some one should move the appointment of a committee, after which he would read to the meeting an important telegram which had just been received. Mr. SING RR then moved "That the beat thanks of the meeting be given to Me Evans for his report, and, in con formity with the recommendation therein contained, a committee, consisting of the following gentlemen, be re quested to act in concert with the directors in endeavour ing, by every means in their power, to obtain from the Italian government a just settlement of their demands." The names of the proposed committee are the Earl of Kerry, Captain C. F. Surtees, M.P., Mr. Brown Westheaul. M.P., Major-General Hancock, Mr. James Pilkington, Major-General J. J. Team General Sir B. Phillips, Lieutenant-Colonel W. C. Onslow, Lieutenant-Colonel Johnston, Colonel Holland, Colonel J. J. Smith, Colonel T. Blois, Mr. C. Allen, Mr. E. Cropper, Mr. N. Peek, jun.. Colonel M`George, Colon-1 H. W. Wood, Mr. C. Fraser, Mr. J. T. Mackenzie, Mr. C. D. Singer, and Mr. Field. The moot 'don having been seconded, The CHAIRMAN observed that they all knew that the canal was in exercise in 1866. When be and other gentle men haul an interview with the Italian Minister of State he told them that on condition that they would give up four coupons and some other things the government would declare the canal to have been in exercise as they had always stated that it had been. While they were endeavouring to carry out the arrangement then offered on the part of the government, a local creditor stepped in and threw the concern into bankruptcy. They endeavoured to convince the government that under the circumstances that ought nue . to be allowed, but they did not appear to succeed. However a commission was appointed by the government, and now a telegram had been received from Turin. [Mr. Morris, of the firm of A.shurst and Morris, brought the telegram into the room while the Chairman was reading the report.] This telegram came from Turin. It was addressed to Mr. Young, one of the directors, and was sent by Mr. Brownley, another director, who resided permanently at Turin to watch over the company's interests. It said : " Award is known, exercise from January, 1860." 801 that the great point for which they had always contended was now conceded. (Hear, hear.) The canal Was declared to be in exercise ; and that being the ease he took it that the guarantee of the government was due. The telegram went on "Interest to be appropriated for works." He took that to mean that the government would apply the coupons that were due in finishing the subsidiary canals. A SHAREHOLDER— HOW will that award affect the bankruptcy? The CHAIRMAN believed that if the government chose to have its award can:ad oat it had the requisite power. The award W/3 a preliminary, he thought, to the super seeing of the bankruptcy. Mr. Set. err, a director, admitting that the telegram so far as it went was satisfactory, said it did not do away with the necessity for a committee, adding that it was only by completely fulfilling its enmigements that the Italian government could restore its credit in this country. The CH AIRMAN, in reply to • question, said there haul been arbitrations previously, but this award was a more fohnal matter, and had the sanction of Signor Raitazzi, who had admitted to him over and over again, the justice of their case. The govern. went were parties to the commission, and though he did not know how they intended to act, he hoped they would do what was debt in the mater. The resolution was then adopted unanimously, and the proccedinp terminated.

Viceroy of Egypt (Mortgage) Loan, 71 MONEY MAESET.-(THIS DAY•i Oss o'Oloos. The Stock markets to-day are characterised by firmness of tone, but few variations have occurred in prices, in the absence of dealings of any importance. Consols are maintained at the improvement of yesterday, the supply of stock in the market being small, in consequence of the large amount taken up at the last settlement by means of advances made by bankers. The knowledge, however, that the stock so bought will be offered for sale upon any im portant rise tends to check the favourable ten dency. Other securities, including home railways and foreign bonds, are in most cases unaltered. In the discount market there is no alteration, and in the Stock Exchange loans on English go vernment securities are still offered for a week at 1 per cent per annum. Consols are quoted 94/ to both for money and the account (Oct. 8), and the Three per Cents. Reduced and New Three per Cents., to f, ex. div. The purchase by the government broker to-day for the Sinking Fund comprises 21,0001. Reduced Three per Cents. at 931, ex div. The railway market is inactive, and the principal stocks exhibit no movement, with the exception of a rise of # per cent. in London, Chatham, and Dover, and a reduction of h in Great Eastern. Annexed are the quotations :—Metropolitan, 123 to ; Great Western, 481 to I, ex div. ; London and North Western, 115 to 1 ; Midland, 1221 to 123 ; Lancashire and Yorkshire, 1275 to 128 ; Cale donian, 108 to 109 ; South Eastern, 70 to 1 ; Great Eastern, 31 to 1 ; Great Northern, 1125 to 1135 ; ditto A, 119 to 5 ; London, Chatham. and Dover, 20! to # ; North British, 335 to 34 ; and Brighton, 53# to #. As regards foreign stocks, Spanish Passive have declined percent., viz., to 191 to while Mexican are better, at 161 to *. Turkish of 1862 are quoted 61} to 62} ; ditto of 186.5 (Five per Cents.), 32 to ; Greek, 14 tot; Spanish Certificates, 161 to i t ; Italian of 1861, 48/ to ; and Chili= *aril), tto Prem. American securities are dull, at the prices of yesterday. The 6.20 Bonds are at 721 to 73 ; Erie railway shares, 431 to 441 ; and Illinois Central, 77 to Atlantic Cable shares are steady, at the advance of yesterday. Anglo-American are called 17a to 1; and Atlantic Telegraph Eight per Cent. Pre_ ference, 3! to 7/. Bank shares have been dealt in to a very moderate extent. Chartered Mercantile are 10s. lower, at 291 to 301, but other descriptions show no variation. Financial !there' are inactive. International Financial are quoted 2; to II die ; London, 23 to 21 die. ; General Credit, 2; to 11 die. ; and Credit Foncier, 5 to h dis. Messrs. Baring Brothers and Co. remind holders of Spanish Passive Stock, and of the Deferred Debt of 1831, that the thirty days allowed for converting these Bonds into Consolidated Three per Cents., with dividend from Ist January last, expire on the 25th inst., and that the Consolidated Stock issued for Bonds presented for conversion after that date will only bear interest from the 30th June last. It is worthy of remark that at a moment when the vaults of the Bank of England and Bank of France are overflowing with gold, news arrives that no less than a million and a half of treasure is on the way to this country from Australia. Owing to the extent of the connexions of the Credit Mobilier of France with the other con tinental markets its critical position is regarded with much interest, but a belief is still enter tained that its difficulties have long operated as a sufficient warning on this side. It is said that, in the event of its affairs being wound up, the liqui dation would occupy at least three years. The Spanish Financial Commission in London has given notice that, for a period of three months terminating on the 18th December next, the Com mission will open the conversion of the Spanish Certificates representing " the 50 per cent. de ducted from coupons by law of Ist August, 1851." These claims are " convertible into 25 per cent. °Bah, issuing in payment Three per Cent. Conso lidated Exterior Stock, valued at 45 per cent." With reference to the Amsterdam Certificates, M. Borrajo states :—" Article 4th of said decree prescribes that the genuineness of the claims to conversion must be previously verified ; but, as the Spanish government does not vet possess the necessary documents to verify the Amsterdam Cer tificates the new stock for them cannot be deli vered until those documents are obtained." About 40,0001. in gold was bought by the Bank yesterday, making a total of 307,0001. since the date of the last return ; while only 20,0001. has been withdrawn in the same period for export. Australian advices announce the shipment for England of 668,000/. in gold for the month ending the 27th ult.,. so that the total know n to be on the way from that quarter is nearly 1,500,000/. Sales of bar silver took place yesterday at ss. 05-16 d. per ounce, the result of the allotment of the Indian Council bills not having caused any demand for the East. The biddings for bills on India took place yester day at the Bank of England. The amounts allotted were—to Calcutta, 9,93,000 rs., and to Madras. 5,C00 rs. The minimum price was fixed at Is. 11 d. on Calcutta and Madras. Tenders at Is. 114 d. wiU receive about 21 per cent. ; those above will be allotted in full. No tenders for bills on Bombay were invited. The minimum was only jd. below the prohibitory rate settled on the 4th inst., yet the whole amount has been taken, from which it may be inferred that there is rather more demand for the means of remittance to India. The whole amount of bills offered on the present occa sion, however, was limited to 100,0001. Although excitement in connexion with the great ocean race front China has been greatly diminished by the arrival of the Taeping, intelli genes with reference to the other vessels is awaited with interest. The Maitland and Series both sailed from Foochow a few days be:ore the Taeping, and are hourly expected off the coast, but the favo rite ship is the Ariel, which, it will be remembered, came in last year at the same time as the Taeping. The Ariel this year left Foochow on the 13th June, or nine days after the Taeping. The Lo,idon and North-Western Railway traffic return shows this week an increase of 4,1411. over last year • the Great Northern an increase of 4,177/. ; rind the Midland an increase of 5,972/. The Grand Trunk of Canada Railway traffic return shows this week a decrease of 2,365/., com pared with the corresponding period of 1866. The subjoined report on the market for Ameri can securities is from the circular of Messrs. Satterthwaite and Co. After our last of this day week, the London market for United States Government Bonds was slightly depressed on fresh importations, but from the very large demand on continental account, as well as a moderate steady home absorpCon, the quotations gradually improved until yes terday, when advice , by telegraph from New York an-' nounced that the question of paying off the 7.'_'o Bonds in currency was again being agitated. Although this has been frzquently done by political aspirants when ad dressing Western audiences, and hence ceases really to have much, if any, weight, it is especially to be regretted that any clique in the States should be found willing to jeopardise the credit and good faith of the government merely to answer some party political etd. It is true that there is nothing either in the acts of Congress authorising the issue of the bonds in question, or on the face of the 1 1 bonds themselves, rendering it compulsory on the Treasury to redeem them at maturity in gold, but they have been so largely taken both hers and in Europe gene rally on the repeated .esurance of the United Stake p. vernment that they would be paid off in gold, that it would be almost tantamount to repudiation to assert new that they are to be redeemed in currency. We think ili would be a wise pt,! , . , -.7 on the part of Congress to set thin vexed question at rest by a short supplementary ad, de claring that this portion of the debt in all particulars, hada as to interest and principal, is • specie obligation, as we feel unwed it would inspive great additional confident* le investors on this side of the Atlantic. The old issue of 5-219 Bonds close 72t to 7:1, and the 1865's 701 to j. ats shares have been dull and neglected, but Illinois have bees in some request, and were taken early in the week at 711, but leave off slightly easier, the last pubis being 77 to 774. Atlantic and Great Westeig Debentures are last quoted 25j to 214, and Consolidated Bonds 22 to ZS. WEDNESDAY Evmrnre. Consuls, which closed yesterday at 344 to for the Bth of October, opened this morning at 941 and closed at 911 to 4. For money the price was the mime as for the account. The official business report is as follows :—Thres per Cent. Consols, for money, 941, 4, ; ditto, for ac count, 941, 4 ; Three per Cents. Reduced, 931, 3,1, ex div. ; New Three per Cents., 93, , ex div. ; ditto Two-and-a-Half per Cents., 774 ; Bank stock, shut ; ditto for account, 2464, ex div. ; India stock, 221, 2 ; ditto Five per Cent., 1134, 1 ; ditto Five per Cent.

The India Five per Cent, stock was firm, and there was an increased demand for the rupee paper, which showed an upward tendency. In the foreapt stuck market the amount of busi nes: was not large, but the tendency was better than yesterday. Turkish stocks were in demand, and a rise of 4 to 1 per cent. occurred in those of 1858, 1862, 1863, and 1865 (Six per Cents.). Turkish Five per Cents. of 1865 and Greek were higher, and Chaim scrip 1 ; but the Viceroy of Egypt's Loan fell 4; Mexican, g ; and Spanish Pas sive and Italian of 1861, 4. MINIIB.-(TER3 DAY.) ovl *Nikes& In the mining market to-day there is a good demand for Prince of Wales, Wheal Grenville, North Crofts, Great Vor, Great Lizey, and Ntr.h. Crotty shares. Some of the present quotations are as follows :—Great Vor, 18 to 18f, cum div. ; Great Laney, 18 to ; Wheal Grenville, 2&e. to 275. 6d Clifford, 71 to 3 ; East Lovell, 81 to ; North Crr'fty, 3; to 41 ; Wheal Beton, 112 i to 115 ; West Kitty, 12s. to 14s.
