Tyrwhitt on a warrant for neglecting to mountain his de and two children, Mary, aged three years, and John, Ord four months. gr. George Badderley, assistant overseer of St. George's, haarer-square, said that about six weeks ago the wife and *children of the prisoner were admitted into the work hue in a destitute state, and he regretted to say that me of the children, the youngest, died on Monday last, el that the wife was very ill. It was a very bad ease, he prisoner having deserted his wife and family to cohabit ad a girl. The prisoner bad nothing to say. Tyrwhitt said the prisoner had deserted his wife, ul left her desolate, to cohabit with a girL His conduct *cruel and disgraceful, and he would be committed for math with hard labour. WORSHIP-STREET. .t DISPUTED CAB FARE. Mr. S. Thompson, a surgeon in the Mile-end-road, was exmoued by Harry Burrell, the driver of a Hansom cab, somber 2,720, for refusing and omitting to pay him the moot 44., being his alleged lawful fare, incurred on the bob inst. Defendant at once remarked that although the demand ea an overcharge, he contested it purely on public pounds, the vehicle being in a really dangerous condition. Complainant denied it, and protested that it was nearly a scrub. Moreover, he did not believe that the gentleman sond have demurred to paying the 45., and which really oe;lit to have been another flit, but for having been eat dually struck by the blind over the eyes as ho (coin plaaza) was lowering it. Defendant said that although he had received a most ride* blow, it had not influenced him in this matter ; titled condition of the cab alone had actuated him. The Magistrate observed that such, whether fact or celinvise, could not be imported into this matter. Complainant then swore that when he took defendant as a foe at Mile-end-gate he distinctly noticed by the clock there that it was five minutes to 3 o'clock, and wilierdriving him about apparently to different patients, to *him down at precisely the same spot, he of course allood opportunity of seeing how long he had been hod The time amounted to 4a., apart from fid. for Tuusq, which, however, he did not demand. The gentle !tie disputed the time by his own watch, and offered aq,nhich *mot course refused, and a summons obtained. Defendant insisted that he could not be mistaken in his each, and finally the magistrate remarked that there vs not any evidence to guide him. If the clock had be- Mad to a church instead of a turnpike, it might have bra diffennt Complainant had better take 3s. lid. filmed, and defendant pay 25., being the cost of the tosimons , _Complainant took his money, but complained that he was lordly treated—the hearing had been adjourned one day, Itolmollust his pluce, and was also out of work — instead of iteetving his just claim and all his expenses. age ; sad 1 4•C• 9 t. court. over, ;o de/ 141 Lad be. hens t e° I jy c‘d. ,iug ‘g" tilDsZ h am , Tbe THAMES.

Sir wretched-looking, boys named George Pat more, TANwis Cooper, Gt,roc Mart, Edwurci Sargeant, Charles Borreff, and Wiliioni Bordrat, were brought up on remand before Mr. Paget, charged with stealing five fowls from a fowl -hoax in the garden of Charles Jones,Victory.cottage. Nliddlem v, and George Smith, cowkeeper and dairyman, of Catherine-street, Limehouse-fields, was "aged with feloniously receiving two of the fowls, he well knowing them to be stolen. The case against the boys was complete, and three of the salen fowls were found on two of them. Bolden, one of } m "r", said that two of the fowls were sold to Smith a his cow barn, and he was confirmed on oath by two other buys, accomplices . The fowls were not found on the Remises of Smith, and the evidence of the boys received no corroboration whatever. gr. Stoddart, solicitor, who defended Smith, said be Tau a man of unblemished character, and there were Moons who had known him eighteen to twenty years a attendance to speak in hie favour. ,Ifr. Paget would give no opinion on the case of the cow raper Smith, but no the evidence of the accomplices was not confirmed be sh ou ld di s charge him. He sentenced 9" bays, who were all under 14 years of age, to one month's urProonawnt with bard labour. The learned magistrate threw a letter from him which bad been banded to him through Mr. Stoddart cod Mr. I'yer, the chief clerk, " r at" , by Smith's wife, and said it was highly im- Prier to send written communications to any magistrate 'judge re a case to come before them. The coma amication was a most improper one. Mr. Staidart—lt was handed to you by Mr. Pyer. Mr. Pyer—lt was put into my hand by you, sir, and Ong it was addres se d t o th e magis trate I gave it to him. ratte r. Paget said Mr. ryes. was quite blameless in the r. Mr. Stoddart—l have been 40 years in the profession and should be sorry to do anything irregular. ..gr.

Ignorant papaw who don't know any better often send written communications to a judge or a magistrate, and it is most decidedly im proper ; but for a gentleman of your experience to do po is doubly flagrant. Mr. S.rt did not know the contents of the letter. Mr. Paget--I believe yon did not. SHARE L tIBTS.-(THIS DAY.) CLpriess. ONI O'CLOCK.

Fine parcels were disposed of at full quotations, but inferior qualities were difficult to sell. Foreign wheat moved off slowly, but prices ruled firm. The show of samples was In floating cargoes of grain, only a moderate business was passing, at late rates. Fine malting barley commanded extreme rates, other wise the trade was heavy. There was a moderate demand for malt, and prices ruled firm. In oats the transactions were on a limited scale, and heated and inferior qualities were rather easier in value. Beans and peas were in steady request, at quite late rates. Very few samples were on offer. The flour tnule was quiet, on former terms. Linseed and rapeseed moved off slowly.

The prospectus of the reconstructed Agra and Maatenium's Bank was formally issued last even ing, but as the object is limited to carrying on the business of the old Agra and United Service Bank, the title selected is " the Agra Bank ( Li mited). Many of the details have already t ra nspired in the communications published during the last few days. The capital is fixed at one million sterling, as explained in the statement adopted at the meeting of shareholders on the 18th ult. and of this capital 400,0001. in 40,000 " A" share s of 101. each, to be fully paid up, are now offered for subscription, although it is intimated that " upwards of one-half of these shares has been already agreed to be subscribed." The object is simply expressed as " to take over the assets and liabilities of the Agra and Maaterman's Bank (Limited), and liquidate the same, as a working bank, and to continue that portion of the business formerly carried on by the Agra and United Ser vice Bank (Limited)". And it is pointed out that : The advantages which the proprietors of the shares now offered will receive are :-1. The benefit of an old estab lished and profitable busineu, without any payment for goodwill. 2. They will have a preference dividend out of profits for two years of 10 per cent. per annum on their paid up capital. :1. They will have the option at once, or at any of the before-named periods, of paying up the whole amount of 101. per share ; diviaends being allowed 'on all payments pro rata. The liability on the shares will there fore be actually, and not nominally, limited. The board comprises sik highly respectable names, and three more are to be added. The subscription list is to be closed for London on the 12th, arid for the country on the 13th inst., and applications are to be considered in the order of their receipt. It may be proper to remark that the proposal adopted by the shareholders, at the meeting on the 18th ult., has been modified by the Share holders' Committee, in the undermentioned points : The instalments to the creditors to make ap 20a. in the pound, with interest to be paid as follows :-15s. in the pound in January, 181:;, making, with the ss. in the pound already paid, 10s. in the pound, together with I interest from the 7th June, 1866, the date of the stoppage, at 5 per cent. per annum, both on the s a. in the pound already paid and on the ss. in the pound now proposed to be paid; 2. 3e. in the pound in July, 1867, with interest at 5 per cent. per annum from 7th June, 1866 ; .1. Is. in the pound in April, 186$, with interest at 5 per cent. per annum from 7th June, 1866; 4. 4s. in the pound in Oc tober, 1868, with interest at 5 per cent. per annum from 7th June, 1866.—The first of the above instalments to be paid in cash, the other three to be secured by promissory notes of the Agra Bank (Limited), with interest added to, and forming part of each instalment.—No dividend will be paid on the Scrip Certificates or B shares (but if earned, will be reserved) until the creditors' claims shall have been satisfied, or the Agra Bank (Limited) shall have offered to discount their promissory notes intended to be now given to the creditors for the three last of the above instalments.

Had he gone round by the old route, vial Kustendjie, it would have occupied throe or four days, whereas by the new Varna line it took about four hours only. In reference to the affairs of the Portsmouth, Portsea, Gosport, and South Hants Banking Com pany, which is now being compulsorily wound up in the Court of Chancery, under an order made in April, 1865, we are informed that a fourth divi dend, at the rate of 2s.

Chatfield, captain of Ler Majesty's shi p Nimble, an account dated New Providence, Oct. 9 , of • ter rific hurricane in which that vessel was blown ashore in the harbour of Nassau, on a sandy bottom, in 64 feet of water, without, however, receiving the slightest damage. The writer thought 'the ship would be got off by the 10th instant. The scene on shore was, it appears, terrible : the town in ruins ; not a single vessel (of some hundreds the day be fore in the h.,rbour) remained ; the government-house, barracks, hospital, and officers quarters were unroofed 1 and partially blown down. Nearly all the houses in the town were partially or wholly unroofed, and four chapels blown down. The salt water bad blow n n over the island. The accounts from the other islands re very dreadful, and there was great Wes of life and property. The gre ttest extent of the storm was 100 to 1130 miles over the Ha -1 ham's. ScULLEIti . RACE FOR £loo.—The 'cullers' race between John Augustine Cattle, • waterman of the Old Swan, London -bridge, and William S.dler, a waterman for 's apprentice, of Puteey, came off yesterday afternoon 501. • side in old-fashioned boats. Both the men are well known. There is not such • disparity in their age as there Is in their stature and weight, Caffin standing 6f t. L'in., and weighing 125t.121h. ; and Sadler standing Mt. 44in.,and weighing 9st 121 h., their ages being about 25. Both were in 1 good condition. but unfavourable rumours were about. and as much as Bto 1 was laid on Catlin. Two steamers ac. eompanied with large part sea. Mr. J. Ireland was referee. Messrs. H. Salter and G. Hammerton were umpires for Catlin and Sadler respectively, while Robert Bain and Henry Kelley were pilots. Catlin won the toss and took the Mid ' dlesex side, on a stiff noser and tide nearly done. He took 1 the lead by half • length, and Sadler rowing very badly was cleared at the Star and Garter, Caffin leading by three 1 r length at the point, and four at Hammersmith. Sadler, in fact, was never in the race, and was beaten by eight or ten lengths. The time was over thirty minutes. 92 94 90 92 90 92 76 78 75 77 103 106 101 103 101 103 103 105 87 90 192 104 106 107 104 106 104 106 104 106 106 107 103 106 96 99 93 95 91 99 We 86 e 92 94 .. 2 Ipm 9E 9r 81 83 94 98 96 98 93 96 10 107 100 104 701.1113 N Alamilloa Limited) .

One of the largest takes of herrings perhaps ever known was secured in Dublin Bay on Sunday night. A fleet of about 100 smacks were engaged at the work, and all secured such quantities that great difficulty arose in getting in the nets. The fish were brought ashore and piled in immense heaps along the pier at Kingatown, and the district was scoured for salt with which to preserve there. The fish are now chiefly used for exportation and curing, as since the epidemic of cholera has exhibited itself in Dublin and in the workshops of the sea coast the poorer classes have evinced a disrelish for fish of any description. THE ROYAL VISIT TO NORWICH.—At a meeting of the Norwich town council yesterday votes of thanks were passed to his Royal Highness the Duke of Edinburgh for his ready acceptance of an invitation to be present at the late musical festival at Norwich, and for his great con descension and urbanity ; to the high sheriff of the county, for also honouring the festival with his presence ; to the lord lieutenant of the county, for his exertions in meeting the wishes of the citizens and bringing about the royal visit ; to Lord and Lady Stafford, for their distinguished reception of the Prince and Princess of Wales, and to her ladyship for the gift of the tree planted by the Princess of ad Wales ;to the magistrates of the county ;to Major Alex ander and the Kings Dragoon Guards, for the assistance which they rendered in keeping order; to the offi cers of the volunteers, the directors of the Norwich Water works Company, the directors of the Great Eastern Rail way Company, the chief constable and the police, Kr. J. J. Colman, &c. SERIOUS ACCIDENT TO LORD BROUGHAM'S NIECE.—On Monday evening, an accident occurred to Miss Brougham. niece of Lordßrougham. Miss Brougham and her sister, attended by a man servant, left Brougham Hall, Cumberland, for Penrith, on horseback, on Monday after noon. On their return home the horse on which Miss Brougham was riding took fright, reared and fell back wards, crushing the young lady in the fall. On recovering itself, the animal galloped off. The injured lady was taken to a toll-keeper's house close by, when medical assistance was soon in attendance. A messenger was at once sent off to Brougham Hall, whence a carriage was despatched, and the sufferer conveyed home. AsSAULT IN A RAILWAY CARRIAGE. —On Mon day Stephen Kinsay, described as a butcher, was had up before the Shrewsburymagistrates, charged with indecently assaulting a young woman named Mary Ann Briscoe. The prosecutrix stated that on Monday,but week, she travelled by an evening train from Shrewsbury to Ford. She got into a third-class carriage, and saw no one in except the prisoner, who at the time she entered was separated from her by two compartments. Almost before the train had started he clambered over to her, and began to assault her, and did not cease until the tr ain reached Ford. As the train approached that station the prosecutrix opened the door, and, in her fright, was leaving the carriage before the train stopped. The prisoner caught hold of her dress, as if to pull her back, and she Veil on the platform, and had • narrow escape from death. There was no attempt to deny the assault, hut prisoner urged that he was under the in fluence of drink. He was a married man, and had seven children. He was committed for trial, but bail was ac cepted for his appearance at the sessions. THE ROCHDALE AND OTHER LIFEROATS.—The people of Rochdale have, through Mr. R. Taylor Heaps, liberally contributed NM , to pay the cost of a lifeboat and its equipment. It will be publicly exhibited in that town on Saturday next, the 10th inst. The lifeboat, on its transporting carriage, will be drawn by a team of horses through the principal streets of Rochdale to Holliugworth Lake, where it will be launched. The boat will be manned by the crew of the Blackpool lifeboat of the institution ; various evolutions will be performed vrithtliebost,including capsizing, to test the qualities of self-righting, self ejecting water, kc. The lifeboat Rochdale is to be 'sta tioned at Polkerris, near Fowey, on the Cornish coast. The institution also sent this day a new lifeboat to Mundesle on the Norfolk coast, in lien of an older one there, wh ich was becoming unfit for service. The new boat is named the " Grocers' Lifeboat," the cost of it having been liberally contributed, through the untiring exertions of Mr. William Reed, of 4, Monument -yard, by the grocers of England. A new lifeboat has also been sent to Ilfracombe, North Devon. The wet of it was contri buted to the society, on the 21st June last, by Mr. Robert Broadwater, of Hornsey-rise, in conjunction with his friends, in commemoration of his fiftieth birthday, and the lifeboat has been named the " Brosawater." The life boat is to be publicly launched at Ilfracombe on Wednes day next, the 14th inst., when a procession to the harbour will be formed, and the boat will afterwards be named by the Countess Fortescue.

The transactions exhibit an increased number of bona fide purchases, owing to the distrust prevailing with regard to most other securities. English railway stocks are steady, but some of the foreign bonds have given way, Turkish and Italian showing chief dulness. Banking and financial shares have been very little dealt in. Credit Fonder of England are heavy, at the fall of yesterday. The settlement in Consols is now in course of completion. The discount market is freely supplied with money to-day, while the demand is extremely moderate. Some bills are kept back on the chance of a reduction in the Bank rate to-morrow to 4 per cent. If this alteration should be made, the quo tation in the general market for the best paper, which is now at 31 to 4 per cent., will probably recede to 31. The change for short loans in the Stock Exchange is 3 per cent. Consols are now quoted 89} to g for money and 891 to for the account (December). Foreign stocks are rather flat. Turkish Bonds of 1862 have declined 1 per cent., and those of 1865, and Italian of 1861 are 1 lower. Mexican have also ruled,}. Turkish Bonds of 1862 are quoted 57 to 50 ; ditto, 1865, 301 to / ; Greek, 131 to 144 ; Spanish Passive, 211 to 1 ; ditto Certifi cates, 131 to 141; Italian of 1861, Sit to 55 ; Mexican, 16i United States 5-20 Benda and Erie Railway sham have advanced 1 to 1 per cent., being quoted 681 to 1 and 504 to 511 respectively. 111i/win Central are steady, at 761 to 771. Anglo-American and Atlantic Telegraph shares are ss. better ; the former are quoted 141 to .1, and the latter, 4g to 1. International Financial shares are quoted 11 to 11 die. ; London Financial, 151 to 141 die. ; General Credit, 21 to 1/ die. ; Credit Foncier, 51 to 51 dia. ; National Discount, 91 to 104 prem. ; and Hudson's Bay, 161 to HALF-PAST THREE O'CLOCK. The drafts of Messrs. Dent and Cu., the well known merchants, of China, have been returned by their London agents. Consols are 1 per cent. lower, at 891 to 1 for money and 89g to 1 for the account. About 81,0001. in gold has been sent into the Bank, and 85,0001. withdrawn, chiefly for Brazil. At Paris to-day the Three per Cent. Renter opened at 68fr. 80c., showing no change. The chief influences operating upon the money market point to continued ease, and, in the opinion of most persons, would justify a reduction in the rate of discount of the Bank of England to 4 per cent. Amongst these may be enumerated the recent marked im provement in the Bank's accounts, the continued influx of gold, the steady return of coin hitherto required for harvest purposes in the provinces, the absence of demand for silver for the East, the steadiness of the continental exchanges, a relapse of 2s. per quarter yesterday in the price of wheat, and the stagnant condition of spe culation. Under these circumstances it would appear that the Bank might fairly try to recover a portion of its discount business, the volume of which has latterly experienced so imrtant a diminution. The shipments of gold to Egypt and a few other points must not have too much im portance attached to them, for, as we see, they are insutticientto prevent a con tinuance of the accumu lation at the Bank of England • and, though the Bank of France has latterly p arted with a large amount of gold, the stock there is still far in exceed' of existing or prospective requirements. The drawing of bonds of the Turkish Loan of 1862 is fixed for to-morrow (Thursday). It is understood that the balance of the amount required for the dividend due the Ist July last on Mexican Three per Cent. Stock is expected either by the mid-monthly mail, due on the 15th inst., or by that following it, on the 29 th , w hen it is st ated that this dividend will be announced for payment.

The first sale by auction of the London Stock and Share Company (Limited), took place yesterday at the Baltic Sale Rooms South Sea House, Thread needle-street, and app earedi to excite a great deal of interest, the room being crammed, and even the doors and passages crowded. A large number of those present were members of the Stock Exchange. The sale taking place at a tame when there is an almost unpar all eled apathy on the part of the investing classes, it is not surprising to find that, of the 470 lots offered, only 29 found buyers in the room. The bidding' for the others, where any were obtained, were below the " limits" or re served prices, which in several cases were fi xed by the holders at an absurdly high point, a cir cumstance which further tended to check business. It appears, h owev er, that the lots sold went at satisfact ory prices-in several cases considerably above the " limits." Moreover, after the sale 13 or 14 more lots were sold, and the company are now in treaty for the disposal of addi tional parcels. The company, it should be under stood, do not restrict themselves to buying and selling in public auction, but hold themselves free to treat privately with both buyers and sellers, and generally to transact Stock Exchange business, while allowing to members of that establishment half commission on all business introduced by them.

The annexed communication, formally notifying that 200,000/. of Lloyd's bonds of the Carmarthen' and Cardigan Railway Company, now in the hands of the public, are a duplicate issue, and, together with " a very large amount beside," are utterly worthless, though the intimation is not wholly new, is little calculated to restore the already sorely shaken faith of the public in securities of this nature. The time has evidently arrived when, in the interest alike of our railway companies and of the !unsuspecting public, fresh safeguards are im peratively required : TO TITS EDITOR OF THE EXPRESS. Sir, -It having been com municated to the newly-elected board of directors of the Carmarthen and Cardigan !cad - way that Lloyd's bonds of that company have recently changed bands, I am desired, as their chairman, to warn the public, through your columns, against purchasing any of these securities. The directors have already discovered that 200,0001. (two hundred thousand pounds') worth now in the hands of the public are a duplicate issue, and a very large amount beside, they believe, have been issued with out proper consideration, and are therefore utterly worth less. lam sure you will not object to give the utmost publicity to this communication, so as to prevent, as far as possible, any additional snffering to innocent and =BUS pecting persons.-1 am, JOHN EVERITT.
