I asked my niece, who was with me, where my watch and chain were, and she said that Ho lmes had got them. Mr. Knox—Why is the other prisoner in monody ? Prosocutriz—Reanuie sbe was with Holum at the time. I went to the station and gave information to the police. Mr. Knox—Had you been drinking ? Prosecutrix—Yes, a little while, at the Alhambra. I paid far some gin at Berns's, but gave that away. Mr. Knox— Go rdon (the constable in the ease), is there anything mom against Holt ? Gordon—No, ear. Kr. Knox—Then she is discharged. (To Holmes) The prosecutrix says you took her watch and chain. Holmes—l deny it. Annie Russell (niece to the proesentrix)—On Tuesday night last my aunt and myself met the prisoner and her fnend at the Alhambra. We got into conversation, and we had something to drink at a public-house, and then went toßarns'a. The prisoner took the watch off my ant's neck, vying, " There's a lot of thieves visit those houses ;" and she then pretended to put the watch and chain down my bosom. I thought I bad them, but found I had not when my aunt spoke to me about them. Holmes—l sever took the watch and chain ; you know your aunt was very drunk. Mr. Knox ordered Holt to be called as a witness. Holt said, while at the Alhambra Rummell come up to me and said, "My aunt calls me Rata.' " I replied, " Then I suppose you call her Mouse.'" We then got into con versation, and afterwards left, and after going to different places and haying something to drink went to Barns's, in the Haymarket. The prosecutrix wanted us to have some supper, and dragged Holmes into a supper place, but the waiter said it was too late. The prosecutrix, who was very drunk, said "When's my watch and chain r and Russell then took off the watch and chain from her aunt's neck, and put them down her own bosom.

BRUTAL AND UNPROVOKED AABAULT. William Wellington, 47, Waverley-road, Paddington, prpenter, was charged with the following brutal assault : Ellen Potts, a married woman, said she was standing talking to another woman in the Harrow-road, when the prisoner pushed against them in a very rough manner. He was spoken to about his conduct, when he said be would knock their eye out. He followed this up by giving her a tremendous blow in her right eye. It was now completely closed and blackened. He attempted to strike her another blow on her face, but she fortunately put her hand up, and warded off the blow. Bungay, 89 X, proved taking prisoner into custody.

THE Racwrr OUTRAGE ANTI) ROBBERY ON A STANT SERGEANT GE MILITIA. Charlotte Young, charged last week with being con cerned in assaulting and stealing from James Pearce, staff sergeant of the sth Tower Hamlets Militia, was brought ukfor re-examination. . . . . . . Long, 47 K, who has the conduct of the ease, produced a medical certificate to the effect that prosecutor was unable to attend from the effects of the injuries received on his head by kicks ; they were on the former occasion described as being of a very frightful character and it was a matter of astonishment to all who saw the man bow he was able to stand in the witness box sad give evidence. The constable also said that he had been incessantly employed in endeavouring to find out something of the prisoner, but all be could ascertain was that she was charged recently at the Thames Police-court with drunkenness, and gave, as now, a false address, but not the same. Not anything could be heard either of the men engaged in the outrage. Prisoner, who heard these statements, made no remark, and was again remanded. She presents a respectable, matronly appearance by wearing a neat bonnet and black silk mantle, probably worth two guineas, but the mantle covers garments of the most filthy description, and is reasonably supposed to be worn with the view of more effectually acting in complicity with ruffians such as those who must have been engaged in this brutal outrage. ROBBERY AND OUTRAZi BY A TICKET-OF-LEAVE MAN. Joseph Page, a tall, powerful fellow, who calls himself a labourer, and refuses his address, was charged on remand with a violent assault and robbery upon the person of Mrs. Catherine Barnes, residing at Homerton. The prosecutrix attended on a summons, her life having been threatened by a woman who cohabited with the pri soner, and she now expressed great fear of violence from his companions. She identified him as the man who at a late hourof night, and while she was returninghome,dragged bar up a narrow turning in Hackney, and assisted by novae women subjected her to gross ill-usage, during which her gold neck chain was broken, and a portion of it, value X, stolen. She, however, raised an alarm, and continued to hold him until the arrival of Sergeant Busane, who heard her cries. The women escaped. A conviction for felony, and a sentence of three years' Penal servitude for it, was duly proved, and the prisoner, who and it was " all made up " for him, was fully com mitted for trial.

On o'CLuee. The dock markets are generally Sane to-day, owing to a rumour that an armistice has bees agreed upon between Prussia and Austria, combined with a large arrival of gold, chiefly from Australia. Foreign bonds are in request, and better. Italian bonds of 1861 are in chief demand, and exhibit a somewhat important rise. Turkish of 1866, r,ltowerer! are slightly flatter, there being • Ino official confirmation of the *dykes from Paris announcing that arrangements have been made by the Turkish government to pay on the 13th of October the overdue dividend. The shares of the financial t bompanies are better, and bank stocks show a favourable tendency. The English funds improved per cent. in the morning, but the present quotations are the same as yesterday. British railways are steady. There is still an in quiry for American 5-20 bonds. The demand for money is quiet this morning, but it is expected to increase later in the day. The supply of money is considerable, and good bills are taken at 9 per cent., or 1 below the Bank of England minimum. Consols are now quoted 881 to f for money, and 88* to 1 for the account (August 9). Italian Bonds of 1861 are in good demand. and have risen 1 per cent. Spanish Passive, the Committee's Certificates, and Mexican have also improved *, but Turkish of 1865 have declined to a like extent. Turkish Bonds of 1862 are now quoted 50 to 52, ex div. ; ditto of 1865, 28 to *; Greek, 11 to 12 ; Spanish Passive, 191 to 90; ditto Certificates, 151 to f ; Italian, 1861, 53* to 1, ex div. ; Brazilian scrip, 21 to 21 dis. ; and Mexi can, 151 to 1. United States 5-20 bonds are in demand, and have risen * per cent., viz., to 691 to 701. Erie Railway shares are quoted 42* to 1, being * better, and Illinois Central, 77i to 78. International Financial shares are now quoted 1/ to 11 dia. ; London Financial, 11 to 10 dis. ; General Credit, 11 to 11 dia. ; Credit Foncier, 3 to 21 dis. ex div. ; and National Discount, 8* to I Pre= The steamer Great Britain arrived off Holyhead this morning, from Melbourne, with 401,000/. in gold. The voyage has occupied 65 days. The China, from Alexandria, has also brought 206,0001., and the Bavaria, from New York, 132,0001. The total by the three vessels is 739,003/. Judging from the unfavourable character of the Bank return published below, it seems un likely that the rate of discount will be lowered for the next week or two. Occasional banking failures, exports of gold to the Continent, and the rigorous policy pursued by the Bank of England, have com bined to keep the public mind in such a state of tension that there is no immediate sign of a reflux of the hoarded notes. The rise in Turkish Five per Cent. Bonds yester day was caused by the receipt of private telegrams from Paris, alleging that tho Turkish government has made arrangements for the payment, on the 13th of October next, of the half-yearly dividend, amounting to about 800,000 f., which fell due on this stock on the 13th inst., together with interest, at the rate of 6 per cent. per annum, for the period of default, viz., three months. This statement, however, met with no confirmation. According to the letters previously to hand it appears that the Porte has been endeavouring to make arrange ments for a new loan based upon the security of the additional 350,0001. of tri bute which the Viceroy of Egypt has agreed to pay annually henceforward, in con sideration of the succession to the throne being made hereditary. The mortgaging of this extra tri bute, if well managed, will probably suffice to give the Turkish government three or four millions sterling of ready money, but the present straitened contlition of the London market has discouraged it from applying here, while in Constantinople the terms demanded by the firms consulted have been so onerous that not even this easy-going govern ment has thought itself justified in conceding them. About 25,000 sovereigns from Alexandria were sent into the Bank yesterday, while 00,0001. in bars was withdrawn for Paris, owing to the absence of supplies in the market. A considerable amount, however, is now on the way from India and Aus tralia. The steamer Tanjore will take to-day only 1,2401. in specie for the East. The weekly return of the Bank of France shows the following changes : Coin and bullion Bills discounted Government deposits lncrease 243,000 Notes in circulation Private deposits Advances After • temporary check last week the stock of coin and bullion has resumed its remarkable upward movement, and shows now a fresh increase of 576,0001. on the week. The decrease of 930,0001. in the discounts argues a languid state of trade, and the heavy withdrawals of private deposits some distrust. A meeting of the shareholders of the failed Bir mingham Banking Company took place yesterday, when the liabilities were estimated at 1,800,0001., and the assets at 2,000,0001., showing an apparent surplus of 200,0001. A resolution was passed in favour of the formation of a new company on the limited liability principle. It has transpired that the acceptances of Mews. Carleton Brothers, wholesale warehouse men, of Gutter-lane and Goldsmith-street, have been returned. The books are in the hands of Mr. White, the accountant, of King-street. The amount of the liabilities is not known, but it is presumed the assets will be considerable. The North Eastern Railway traffic return shows this week an increase of 2,9981. over last year ; the Lancashire and Yorkshire, an increase of 4,216/. ; the Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincoln shire, an increase of 1,851/. • the North British, an increase of 2,1641. ; the London, Chatham, and Dover (including the Metropolitan Extension and branched), an increase of 1,118/. ; the Metropolitan Extension, en increase of 2631. ; and the Kent Coast, a decrease of 9701. The forthcoming dividend on Manchester, Shef field, and Lincolnshire Railway stock is officially announced at the rate of two per cent. per annum against one per cent. per annum for the corre sponding period of last year. The following is the sixth half-yearly report of the directors of the London Financial Association (Limited) to be presented at the general meeting on the 25th nut. The balance of profit for the half-year is stated at 22,0051., but this, together with the sum of 60,1071. brought forward from the 31st December last, and the reserve fund of 100,0001., is "transferred to a special account, to meet any depreciation of securities and also losses when finally ascertained :" The directors beg to submit to the shareholders the annexed statement of accounts for the half-year ending the 30th June, 1866. It will be seen that after payment of current expenses, there remains a balance of 76,5811. 19s. at the credit of profit and loos. This amount, as well as the reserve fund of 110,0001., the directors have iraasferred to a special account to meet any depreciation of securities and also losses when finally ascertained. The past six months has been a period of unprecedented diffi culties, owing to monetary pressure and panic, but the directors are happy to say that the obligations of the asso ciation have been met without the sacrifice of any securities. The directors have to acknowledgc;with satisfaction the willing co-operation and assistance given by several large and influential shareholders, of whom a committee wee formed with the sanction of the directors, to examine and co nsider the a ff airs of the suiaociation, and to report thereon for the information of the shareholders at large. 'The report of the committee is forwarded herewith. The directors much regret to announce that, after mature deliberation, they are of opinion it is inexpedient to recommend the payment of a dividend for the past half-year.

Witness sent for a doctor, and a Mr. Schmidt came and prescribed. He came four times daring the night. The child died a little before eight the next morning. Christian Pager, a woman who bad charge of the child, its mother being dead, gave similar evidence, and said that she believed that the gentleman was a do ctor, if not she would not have gone to him. It appeared that Mr. Schmidt gave a certificate of the child's death, and signed it " E. C. Schmidt, from W. C. Tucker, M.D." The certificate stated that the child died from cholera. The following handbill was, it would appear, distribtited in the neighbourhood :—" Bethnal-green Provident Dis pensary, 9, Turk-street, Bethnal-green, Dr. Tucker, M.D., M.R.C.S., LS.A. The object of this institu tion is to enable persons of small incomes to obtain the best medical advice at moderate cost. Subscription, during illness only, for medicines and medical advice, at the dispensary, ls. a week, at patients' homes 2s. a week." Mr. E. C. Schmidt made a statement, from which it appeared that he was not qualified to practice. He was • student. The business was carried on in Dr. Tucker's name. For six months past Dr. Tucker had not lived in the district, but in Kentish-town. He had been once at the dispensary during last week. Mr. Schmidt attended to the cases. When he found the present case was not yielding to his treatment, he advised the child's parent to send for a doctor, but as it was then 4 o'clock in the morn ing, they could not, and the child was dead when he Came at 8 o'clock on Sunday morning. Dr. James Edmunds, of Fitzroy-square, mid that be made a post-mortem examination of the body of thp deceased, and found that it was an undoubted case of cholera. The body was collapsed, the nails of the left hand blue, Ac. The Coroner, in summing up, remarked upon the danger arising from the practice of permitting an unquan. fled person to go out and attend cases of serious illness, the poor being led to believe tha t the y were havin g the &deka of a medical man who lent his name to the " d . The jury returned a verdict, " That deceased died froth cholera, and was unattended by a medical man during life time, hut was attended by a person holding himself out as • qualified practitioner, and practicing in the none Of another man living some miles away,' and they severely censured Mr. Schmidt.
