LAW INTELLIGENCE. (THIS DAY.) COURT OF EICHEQUKR. Sittings in Banco in Trinity Terni.—(Belore Lord Chid Baron Pollock and Barons Martin, Bramwell, and Channell.) COX AND OTHERS V. THE LORD MATOR AND ALDIMMXII OP THE CRT OF LONDON. -JUDGIMIT. This was an attachment issued out of the Lord Mayor's Court, in as action at the suit of Buckmuter, who carries on the business of a tailor, against an officer in the army, named Farquharson, upon certain moneys belonging to the latter, in the bands of Mom. Cox and Company, army agents at Charing-cross, and with whom he kept an account. When one of the partners in the firm of Messrs. Cox was in the City on business he was served with the attachment. They subsequently moved for • prohibition spinet the Lord Mayor's Court to prevent any further proceedlsgs on the attachment, sad the declaration, which was filed at the suggestion of this court, stated that the custom of the city of London did not give jurisdiction in cases in which none of the parties resided or dwelt within the City, and where the came of action did not arise within it. To this the defendant, pleaded the custom of the City of London. and the case came on for argument upon a demurrer to that plea. Mr. M. Chambers and Mr. Griflits were heard on the part of the plaintiffs ; and Sir F. Kelly and Mr. Charles Pollock on behalf of the corporation. The Lord Chief Baron now delivered the judgment of the court, The question was, whether the custom set out in the plea, assuming it to exist in fact, failed in law. That cus tom claimed juradation over all pennies and all cases, pro vided the garnishee, who in this ems we. represented by Means. Cox and Company, was in the City at the time the a ttachment was served. His lordship said that it was only accessary to state such • custom in order to show its in validity, beaus it was repugnant to the ordinary jurisdic tion of a local court. Judgment would therefore be for the plaintiffa Judgment for the plaintiffs accordingly. GRIMISLL O. GIUGLUIL: Mr. H. James moved for a rule to show our why an order made by Mr. Baron Martin, referring Chia on.. to the arbi tration of the Muter under the compulsory powers of the Common Law Procedtue Act, should not be set aside or dis charged. The action was brought against Signor Giuglini th e operatic singer, to recover a sum of 931: for expenses incurred by him at a hotel at F ar i s , to which he west. socompanied by two ladies of rather expensive habits. There was no dispute as to the item' incurred, and the only objection related to the rea toothiness of the different chargee. It was feared that if the case went to the Master it would not be decided until after the long vacation, and be believed that the other aide would agree to refer it to a barrister, in order that it might be determined without delay. Mr. Baron Martin said he alarmist it was a farce to send • ease of this kind to • special Jury. All bat 201. had been paid. and the dispute was only as to whether so many francs should be given for • dinner and other entertainnanate. Rule granted.

The inquiry excited considerable interest, and amongst those present was the Rev. T. Hugo, the incumbent of All Saims. Mr. Tindal Atkinson attended to watch the pro. continue on the part of the owners of the pre mises. Mr. Gordon attended on behalf of the Royal Society for the Protection of Life from Fire. Cap tain Shaw was also in attendance to represent the firs brigade. Mr. Charles White sad Mr. Hayes attended to represent the Mercantile Fire-office.

Clapham, solicitor, attended on behalf of the parish authorities. The jury having been sworn the following evidence was taken. The bodies, which had previously been viewed by the jury, presented • sickening !spectacle. The Coroner inquired who first discovered the fire The Summoning Officer—The person is in the hospital. Wm. Evans said that he was assistant to Mr. Boor, a wholesale and retail chemist and druggist, of 66, Bishops pte.street. On Saturday morning he was in • beck room. and first beard of the occurrence by the shock, which forced him woes the room. He ran into the front room, looked out, and sew the flames coming up. He tried to get back to get his clothes, but was unable, and he returned to the front room, and remained until • la dder: came, and be was taken down. The bunkhouse was a warehouse. There was a small room between the back warehouse and the counting-house. There was also a small room leading into Artillery-lane, on the ground Boor. The shop was stocked with goods such as are usually kept in an ordinary druggist's shop. The counting-house contained the books, and the room, stock. The front cellar was under the @hop, and the back cellar contained principally " empties." The front cellar contained stock. No business was carried on up stairs. lie thought the fire began in the basement. Charles Warren, a carver of cabinet., who was in the shop at the time of the explosion • J. Heaney, chemist, of Evertors, near LiverpOol, said C. Eatwell, who saw the explosion, gave evidence, after which the housemaid, the sister of the elder deceased, was examined. None of those witnesses could give any positive clue to the immediate cause of the explo sion._ Alter some additional evidence the inquiry was adjourned. CRYSTAL PALACR COMPANY.-(THIS DAY.) The fourteenth ordinary general meeting of the proprietors was held at 1 o'clock, at the London Tavern. Mr. T. N. FARQUHAR in the chair. Before the meeting, bills were freely distributed on be half of Mr. England, one of the directors, calling upon the meeting not to allow him to be removed from the board. When the directors entered the room there were loud cheers for Mr. England. The easittasa said, as that was • meeting at which the accounta were not presented, he had nothing to easy with regard to them. During the last half-year the board had withdrawn as much as parable from the policy of providing special attractioes, and the results were so far satisfactory. It was natural that immediately after the opening of the Exhibitiou there would be some falling off ; but the number who visited the Crystal Pekoe on the previous day was greater than the number on the same day last year. The Flower Show had also been • great success. The Handel Festival would, he believed, be one of the most astounding musical performances ever witnessed, and • complete success in • pecuniary point of view. The building itself had never been in so sound and perfect • condition as it was at that moment. The eciastrockon of the additional railway mentioned in the report would no doubt prove most advantageous as regarded traffic ; while the arrangement made with reseed to the land would re lieve the company as respected the rent paid for Dulwich Wood. All that had been done to the building during this year was of a lasting kind, and would not require reparation during their time. He was confident that at the end of tits year the bard would be enabled to present a satisfactory financial statement; they were willing to be judged by the results. He thee re ferred to the case of Mr. England. No exertions would, he said, be wanting on his own part to avoid anything unpleasant. With the prooeedinp out of which the unfortunate disclosure referred to in the report arose he found no fault. If a man connived that he bad suffered wrong be had • right to resort to • kgal re moody ; but at the same time be was bound to take care that has own condone was anaamilthle. Having elected to take a certain mune be wished and lambed public discussion, and he had thee so alternative bat to retire from public life and make that conoessicie to bpublic opinion which circumstances demanded. (Hear, ear.) He would then have been entitled to look for that sympathy which his cue ao doubt meta -1 rally demanded- He had, however, adopted_ as his motto, " Sio volo sic jubeo," and thus defied public opinion. ("Oh, eh.") Whoa the Times and another morning paper had made comments on the ease, the case had clearly a public one ; and the &redoes could not pass the matter over without rendering themselves liable to have it mid that they approved ef what had co cuned—(" No, no," respooded to by cheers). A man's domestic hearth was his castle 60 long as those was no publicity on his own part. Mr. Ainurron wished to know what wu the charge against Yr. England. The CHAIRMAN mid the report was in the loom. (Criss el "What is the charge l") The CHAIRMAN said the facts were not disputed, and hs would therefore repeat them. (. voice, ' They were brought out in cross-examination.) He then went on to make his statement, to the effect that Mr. Eng. land prosecuted a man for perjury in swearing before the surrogate he had his (Mr. England's) mown to marry his daughter ; whereas it turned out that the young lady was born during her father's cohabitation with his present wife while he was the husband of another woman. Ple thee declared his inability to keep company, with Mr. England at the board after what had been published, and observed that the effect of the board's doing so would be to create a prejudice spinet the compeny, adding that if the Dourpunned by the board were challenged, a ballot would be takes, and if the result were adverse to the directors, they would . retire. ((bean.) He concluded by moving the adoption of the Mr. ANDIRMO r iZty chairman) seconded the motion. Mr. TAILOR t that before condemning Mr. Eng land the other directors ought all to be able to declare that there was nothing in their private history ef which they were ashamed. (Cheen.) Mr. Enownt, who was received with cheers, mid be could not see what his private character had to do with the board. At the first board meeting after the trial, the chairman, speaking to him in • very kind manner, asked him to plate his reeigoatioe in kis hands to be dealt with as he thought proper. He declined to do so, at the same time declaring that be was twilling to take the sense of the shareholders. If he thought that this was a genuine expression of feeling on the part of the board be would bow to it ; but he believed the object was to get rid of him in consequence of the reforms, in effect imr;rehaich he had made enemies. What had been to occurred a quarter of a century ago, and it was a doses years agonises) he married his present wife. (Cheers.) He had got rid of many of the superintendents at the palace ; he was awned of wishing to make • clean sweep ; and on one occasion the chairman said to him, " U you get rid of Mr. Howley and Mr .Grove you will have to get rid of me." He had no des i re, however, to get rid of good working was, but only of the drones in the hive. He had not been keg at the board before there was a dispute there as to who had the hamar of in troduciog him. There arose, however, a growing jealousy of him, sod the report in the newspapers had been made a pretext for getting rid of him. In conclusion, he stated that he married his present wife within 14 days after the death of his first wife, and made an earnest appeal to the meeting for sympathy and support. Mr. Lava mid the reel question was whether the com pany was to lose Yr. England's services or those of the other directors. (Hear, hear.) Hs deprecated discussion of • painful private subject. Mr. JIMILINI moved an amendment, declaring that the removal of Mr. England from the board was neither neces sary we desirable for the interest of the company. [The meeting was proceeding when our report left.] LONDON AND BLACZWALL RAILWAY. (THIS DAY.) An extraordinary meeting of the proprietors wan held at noon at the London Tavern, Bishopegate-street, " for the purpose of coneiderrag and determining upon the exercise of the pewees conferred by the London and Blackwell Rail way Act, 1862, with reference to the raising of capital, and the shares created under the powers of ' The London aad Blackwall Railway AM, 1860,' and the creation of new shares in lieu thereof • sad to consider and determine upon the preferential, fixed , fluctuating, contingent, perpetual, or tenantable dividend, and such other privileges or restric tions as the company think fit to be attached to such new shares, and also to any preference shares into which any or diaary shares created under the act of 1860 may be con verted. The following report was issued to the Proprietors : •• The bill in parliament, which was submitted to, end ap proved by, the proprietors on the lit April last, having re ceived the royal assent, the directors have convened an extraordinary meeting of the company for the 10th day of June rent, for the purpose of rag into effect those proviaions of the act whi ch relate to the creation of preference shares. It will be in the recollection of the proprietors that in Au gust, 1860, it was resolved to create 46,134 shares of 61.105. each, for the purpose of raising the 300,0001. capita', autho rised, by the London and Blackwell Railway Act, 1880. Of those shame 24,735, representing 160,1771. Hi., were taken up by the proprietors, and 21,419 shares, representing 139,2131. 10s., tannin unissued. It will be proposed at Use meeting to cancel the 21,419 shares not issued, and to create in lieu thereof the more number of shares of 61. 10s. each, and to attach to such shares a preferential perpetualdividend at the rate of 4/.los. percent. per annum on the amount for the time being paid up. The act of 1862 provides that, upon the issue of any shares as preference shares under the powers of that act, the holders of any shares created under the powers of the act of 1860 may require the company to convert such shame into pre ference Mares, retitled to • preference dividend of not ex ceeding 41. 10a. par cent, per annum, upon payment of the difference (if any) between the price at which such shares were issued, and the nominal value of such preference shame. provided that notice of the intention to exercise such right of conversion be given in writing to the secretary, within two months after the day of holding the meeting at which the creation of the preference shares was sencticned. The shares sot exchanged for preference shares will, after the next half yearly meeting, be converted into stock, in accordance with the conditions upon which they were issued. It will, therefore, be proposed to the meeting that the preterence shares, into which any such or dinary shares may be converted, shall be of the same nominal value of 61. 10e., and shall be entitled to the same preferential perpetual dividend of 41. 10e. per cent per annum as the other preference shares now proposed to be created. The preference shares created in lieu of the 21,419 ordinary shares not issued, will be offered in the first instance to the proprietors registered in the books of the company at the date of the meeting, in the proportion of one share for every 801. stock, end for every eight shares created and tweed under the provisions of the act of 1860. Imme diately after the meeting • circular will be sent to each pro mister, with forms of application for pre's:ores shares, and of notice for conversion of ordinary shares into preference shares." . . Tlie;Ctisnutar said the report entered eo fully into the matter to which it related that it could not be neosmary for him to make any remarim. Since the last meeting, when the subject was fully dimmed. the bassi bad given the matter their best attention, and they were unanimously of opinion that the preference shares which it was now pro posed to offer, bearing 41. 10s. per met. per annum, would be readily taken op by She proprietors in genereL A series of rmointioas founded on the !sport were the. moved from the chair, mid adopted. The last of these Geo tutions was as follows :—" That upon every preferential share now to be created and lined a deposit of 11. 10s. be paid on or before the Ist day of July next, and that the re maining 51. per share be paid by instalments at the follow ing d a ms, via., 11. 10s. par share as the Ist September, 1802, lf. 10s. per share on the lab November, 18W, U. per share on the let January, 1863, and if. per share on the Ind March, 1863."

Raffles Wa'thew (deputy coroner for east Middlesex), held an in vestigation at the Green-gate Tavern, City.mad, touching the death of the illegitimate mule child of Jape Sherm spinster, which was alleged to have been murdered u nde r the following circuinstences: Mrs. Catheriue Owen, 6, Warwick-place, Whiteman street, sold that Jane Sharpe resided in the same house, and was a 'anodic's. She came to live there five months ago, and she had then a child with her. aired nearly two years. She shortly afterwards left, as she mid to go into Lambeth Workhouse with the child, as it was ill. She returned is • fortnight, saying that it was dead, and bed been buried at Tooting. on Tuesday last she was delivered of • male child, which appeared quite strong and healthy. The child was dressed by witness and given into its mother's care. Witness then went to the relieving officer to get an order for the re moval of the mother and child to the union house, and was absent more than an hour. Upon her return she informed Sharps that she was to have an order, when she replied, " Oh, it is not mixasary now, for the baby is deed." Wit. Dell " " Dead! how can that be? it was all right when I left it. Sharpe did not reply. By the Coroner—Sharpe had only prepared one small shirt for the child. She stated that it was a six months child. Mrs. Smith gave similar testimony to the last witness, and said that she lam sew the child alive four hours after its birth, and it was then quite healthy. Mr. Bruce, M.R.C.S.. said that his mislaid was called in after the birth of the deceased.

He found all the organs healthy, and no natural cause for death. Upon opening the neck he found the muscles discoloured from pressure. The windpipe was flattened and made thin, apparently by being equeased. Thine injuries could not have been occasioned accident ally, and they were undoubtedly the came of death. The appearances led him to infer that some persona' fingers had been passed around the child's throat, and strangulation effected in that way. The coroner said that the evidence showed clearly that the child bad been wilfully murdered, and he should adjourn the inquiry to give time to investigate the mysterious cir cumstances attending the death of the other child. Before the court rose information was brought in that the body of a female child had jx4 just been picked up in King's-square, City-mad, by a ioe-constable, and that there were appearances which indicated that it had been murdered.

The mason given by the servants of the company, that it was holiday time, did not satisfy the numerous class of poems who are in the habit of using the boat. several times each day, and who complained loudly of being mulcted in the increased charge on that scoonet. The excitement and confusion at Die two extremities of the journey.

A fresh decline of I per cent. hes taken place to day in the funds, which are heavy, with little busi ness. This is settling day. In the other markets great dulness continues to prevail. English railway stocks exhibit an average reduction of t per cent. At Paris, this morning, according to Mr. Reuter's telegram, the Three per Cent. Renter opened at 69fr. 15c, being k per cent. better than yesterday. The Water Nymph has arrived from Melbourne with 192,5001, in gold, and the Armenian, from the West Coast of Africa, with 12,0001. It is said, on the other band, that 300,000 sovereigns have been taken this morning from the Bank of England for Turkey. Turkish Loan scrip is quoted 21 to 31 Prem.; Egyptian, If to n prem.; and Russian, to prem. Consols are officially marked 911, 92, and 91f ex div., for money, and 92 ex div. for the account, July 10. The present quotations are 91f to 1 for cash, and 911 to 92 for the new account The official business report is as follows :—Bank Stock, 2344, 236 ; Three per Cents. Reduoed, 914, ; New Three per Ceuta., 914, f ; Thirty Years An nuities, 1886, 15 5-16 ; India Stock, 231; ditto Five per Cent Stock, 1074, f ; ditto Four per Cent. Debentures, 1864, 994 ; ditto Bonds, 255., 20s. prem. ; Exchequer Bills, 4s. prem. ; ditto advertised, 45., Be. prem. There is no variation of importance in the foreign stock market The late rise in Italian Five per Centa is hilly supported. Spanish Certificates are Andy. The Turkish Loan of 1854 remains at 821 to f, and that of 1868, at 704 to 4. Transactions are recorded as follows :—Bramilian lour-and-a-Half per Cents., 1852-58-80, 91, ex div. ; Egyptian Seven per Cents. (scrip), , prem. ; ditto paid scrip, 831 ; Italian Five per Cents., 72, 1, 72 (exchange 25fr.); Mexican Three per Cents., 311 ; New Granada Deferred, 51; Russian Ave per Cents., for account, 97 ; ditto Four-and-a-Half we Cents., 921; Spanish New Deferred Three per Cents., for account, 441 ; ditto Passive, 19 ; the Committee's Certificates, 9, 81, 9/ ; Turkish Six per Cantu., 1858, for account, 701 ; do. Six per Cents.,lBB2 (scrip), 3 prem. ; do., paid-up scrip, 701,1; ditto, Guaranteed Four per Cents., 1021. Ottoman Gas shares are quoted to-day to Priem. As the mails from Calcutta, China, and Australia are expected to be distributed in London to-matron morning (having left Marseilles at 10 o'clock last evening), it is hoped that the Post-office autho rities will defer the despatch for a day of the outgoing mails for Calcutta and China, which, in regular course, would be closed this evening. The fortnightly settlement in shares and foreign stocks will commence to-morrow ( " continuation day") and terminate on Friday. Aboutloo,ooo sovereigns were withdrawn from the Bank yesterday for shipment to Turkey on account of the new loan and it is said that It 000 more will be require d in a day or two. 200,1 I 11. in half imperials was also taken from the Bank for exporta tion to Russia, in connexion with the last loan ; but as a similar amount of bar gold was sent in in exchange, this transaction involves no draught upon the metallic stock. The Niagara, from Boston, has brought 11,5001. in sp The rise in the American exchange and in the premium on gold at New York is partly occasioned ofthe demand for remittance against realisation securities by English holders. The bar silver by the Mexican packet was sold yea,- terday at se. ltd. per ounce, being id. higher than the price obtained for the previous supply, but Id. below that current in the interval. The Mexican dollars have not yet been disposed of. The holders of Moorish Bonds will be glad to learn that the funds required for the interest and sinking fund due the Ist August are furnished without the necessity of having recourse, in any way, to the customs revenues specially hypothecated to the loan.
