F ors y t h , t h e l an d lord, said the house was Wing closed when he saw the constable and Hughes fall into the bar. The constable was under the prisoner. Mr. Ingham said it was clear that the asmult was com mitted because the complainant was a constable, and front no other reason. He should therefore send Hughes and Mimes , for two months' imprisonment each, and Foster for seven days. The prisoners asked for the infliction of fines. Mr. lnghent- No fines for these assaults. The prmooers were then locked up, evidently astonished at the deniaion. IN ILL NEODE4 MMISABINI. THE POLICE COLLETS. (THIS DAY.) BOW-STREET. NOBIERT AT I N.tRING-CRoss STATION. MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

A well-tbvssed young woman, who said her name was J.,.(l4ine Th.no,, but refused to give her address, was chArged with stealing a leather hag from the ladies' first class waiting room at the Clearing-crass Terminus of the South Eastern Railway. lire. Woolley, the attendant at the ladies' first-class waiting-room, stated that on Monday morning she arrived at the terminus (from her residence at New-cross) at about a quarter before 10 o'clock. The prisoner wee then sitting in the ladies' waiting-room. Wit ness placed her bag under the table. A little before 12 o'clock witness had occasion to go ont for a short time. At that time there were only two persons in the room— the prisoner and an old lady. They were both there still when she came back. After the prisoner had left witness misted her bag. She gave information to Sergeant Mouckton. The bag and keys now produced were those she had lost. _ _ _ Sergeant Monckton, the officer specially appointed for duty at the station, said he had frequently seen the pri soner loitering about the platform and waiting rooms when not a passenger. From the description given by Mrs. Woolley of the person she had seen in the waiting room, be suspected that it was the same person. Last evening be saw the prisoner on the platform, and sent for her to Mr. Richardson, the station-master's room, in nnler that he right see her. She then said she was going to Woolwich by the train which started at She was not then detained, but they watched her. She did not go by that train. After it had gone she went out into the street, walked about the Strand and neighbouring thoroughfares, and entered into conversation with three different men whom she met. With one of these she went back to the station to have something to drink at the restaurant. At this time she was carrying in her hand a black bag which she bad hitherto kept concealed under her dress. lie took her into custody. She was at once recognised by Mrs. Woolley, who also i lentified the bag, and a bunch of keys found in it. A diary and some other articles were miming. The prisoner said " If that is the lady's bag, I moist have left mine in the waiting-room." Witness said " Then, what have you done with the diary?" to which she made no reply. Woolley said the prisoner had no bag with her on Monday. nor was any left in the waiting-room. Mr. Richardson corroborated Sergeant 'Mondrian's e•-i -deuce, and asked fur time to inquire lute other charges against her. She was accordingly remanded. Charks Martin and Pkrre Alamo, two Frenchmen, charged with stealing some blankets from the coffee-house of Mr. Whitlock. (Charlotte-street, Portland-place, were brought up before Mr. Tyrwhitt for final examination. Mr. Albert interpreted. On the last occasion it was proved that the prisoners took a bed at Mr. Whitlock's, and on leaving the next morning Mr. Whitlock, observing that the prisoners were rather bulky in appearance, sent upstairs, and ascertained that the blankets were gone from the bed the prisoners had occupied, and he then sent after the prisoners and caused them to be taken into custody, when the blankets were found rolled round them. S..veral coffeahouse-keepers and others stepped forward vi.l said they had charges to prefer against the prisoners. Mr. Tyrwhitt naked if the property stolen in any of the cases had been traced. Polioe-oonstable Shaw, I•_'3 E, said it bad not; but there au a person present who had a charge to make against Mason, who when taken into custody was weming a coat which proved part of the stolen property. Mr. Tyrwhitt said he would bear the case. Mr. Richard Oliver, master tailor, of Trevor-square, Knightsbridge, said the prisoner Mason, accom panied by another foreigner, whom he represented to be bis brother, took a furnished apartment in his house. They afterwards came and took possession of the room, bringing with them a large box, and they left early in the morning, taking with them a quantity of clothing belonging to him and his son, some clothing and materials belonging to his customers, and a quantity of materials from the shop, and they left him without a pair of trousers to go out in. Opening the box he found it to contain bricks, stones, and oyster shells. Police-constable Sbaw produced the coat which Mason was wearing when he was taken into custody, and Mr. Oliver identified it as one of the coats stolen from him. Mr. Tyrwhitt considered the two cases gone into suffi cient, and committed the prisoners (in whose possession a number of keys such as are used for opening drawers and cupboards were found) for trial.

Bitooicix.: in the chair. The following report of the progress of the bank for the half- ear ending the 31st of August last was read. "The directors are able to report that the ordinary banking business of the company has been profitable, that the assets continue to be of the same high character as heretofore, and they estimate that the net profits for the half-year will fall little short of 30,0001. It would have been gratifying to the directors to have followed the course adopted last year, and declared a divi dend on account ; but having regard to the sudden and heavy depreciation which has taken place in the value of the currency of Brazil during the past six months, they do not feel themselves authorised at present to divide any portion of the profits of the current year. In this they are confirmed by the opinion of the auditors. An early restoration of peace is alone wanting to develop the vast resources of BraziL During the past session some very important fiscal measures re ceived the sanction of the imperial legislature calculated to improve the financial position of the empire, and to arrest the further depreciation of the currency. The di rectors trust that these measures may have the desired effect, as the fluctuation in the rate of exchange is the only impediment they are aware of to the progressive success of this bank. On the 2nd October last a branch of this hank was opened at Pernambuco, under the management of Mr. F. B. Bloxham, • gentleman of considerable expe rience of banking in Brazil, and the directors look with confidence to the satisfactory working of their new branch." The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report, said that he should have been glad to have handed to the shareholders • dividend warrant, as was done last year. But they must not conclude from that that they were not doing a good business. On the contrary, the progress of the bank, both in London and Rio, was very satisfactory and profitable during the last six months in the ordinary sense of banking business. They were labouring under the disadvantage of a temporary suspension of specie payments, the oonsequence of which suspension was that the pit. of exchange had fallen be- I tween February and August from 27d. to 21d. They thought it better, therefore, not to divide the 30,0001. they had made during the pest six months. The 30,0001. taken into the accounts was taken at the lowest figure, namely, 21d. .!Hear, hear.) Their securities remained intact, and the manager reported that they had no locked up capital. They would be in • better position to see their way by next May. When they met en the last occasion the reserve fund amounted to 43,0001., and it remained now at about that figure. After a few observations from one or two shareholders the report was adopted, and the meeting concluded by • vote of thanks to the chairman and directors.

Ois o'Omws. The stock markets are rather firm to-day, but there is little fresh business, owing chiefly to the intervention of the fortnightly settlement. As was expected, the arrangement of the account shows a small supply of railway securities, and a " backwardation," or bonus for the I loan of stock to the next settlement, is accordingly quoted in several instances. This is especially noticeable as regards Caledonian and North East ern stocks. The latter have been bought to a considerable extent for investment by persons residing in the neighbourhood of the line. It is stated that a circular, fully describing the present financial position of the North Eastern Railway will be issued by the directors in a few days. English government stocks, which are very scarce in the market, have experienced a fresh rise of i per cent. Foreign bonds have also improved, and some of the banking shares show firmness. Railway stocks, however, remain dull. There is a somewhat increased demand for money to-day, and the rate for the best bills is firm, at 14 to 1/ per cent. Advances for a few days, on English government securities, are offered at 1 per cent. Consols are quoted 941 to 95, with div., for money, and 93# to }, ex div., for the account (December 5). The Three per Cents. Reduced and New Three per Cents are k higher, at 931 to 1. In the railway market the principal feature is a further fall of } per cent. in Caledonian stock, viz., to 71 tto I. A few of the other lines have also de clined ,', to }. Metropolitan is quoted 116/ to 117 ; Great Western, 432 to 44; London and North Western, 1121 to 113 ; Midland, 111} to k ; Lan cashire and Yorkshire, 121} to 122; South Eastern, 65# to 11; Great Eastern, 30} to # ; Great Northern, 104 to 105 ; ditto A, 109 to 1, ; Lon don, Chatham, and Dover, 17} to 181 ; North British, 32} to } ; Brighton, so; to 511 ; Ber wick, 98 to ; and York and North Midland, 92} to 931. Spanish Now Three per Cents. and Passive are in renewed request, and have risen g per cent., viz., to 231 to 1 and 341 to respectively. Several of the other speculative kinds have advanced to 4 per cent. Turkish of 1882, 62 to 63 ; ditto of 1865, 331 to ; Greek, 13 to ; Spanish Certificates, 14 to f ; Italian of 1861, 461 to 1 ; and Mexican, 161 to 1. American securities are in request, at an im provement. The 6-20 Bonds are quoted 702 to 1, showing a rise of per cent. ; Erie Railway shares, 471 to 481, being 1 per cent. better ; and Illinois Central, 831 to 861—an advance of .7. Atlantic Cable shares are steady, Anglo-Ameri can at 181 to 1 ; and Atlantic Telegraph Eight per Cent. Preference, 31 to 4. Financial shares are flat, with very few dealing,. International, 2to 2k dia. ; London, 24 to 23 dia. ; General Credit, 2i to 2i dis. ; and Credit Fonder, 7 to 61 die. The tendency of the market for Bank shares is rather favourable, but prices show no change of importance. London and Westminster are at GS to 70 ; Union of London, 33} to 3411 ; Imperial Ottoman, Ito Ot dia. ; and London and County, 50} to 51i. The directors 'of the National Provincial Bank of England announce that a half-yearly dividend, at the rate of 8 per cent. per annum, and a half yearly bonus of 6 per cent., will be payable on the company's stock on the 10th January. The half-yearly meeting of the Canada Company will be held on the 31st of December, when a dividend will be declared. The half-yearly meeting of tho African Steam ship Company is called for the 11th of December. An extraordinary meeting of the East India Irrigation and Canal Company will be held on the 18th of December, "for the purpose of taking into consideration certain proposals made by the Secre tary of Slate in council for purchasing the works of the company by the payment of a sum in cash equivalent to the whole paid-up capital of the com pany at par." HALF-PAST ONE O'CLOCK. Most of the home railway stocks have receded i to i per cent. since 1 o'clock. Caledonian is at 70} to 71. The pending scrutiny into the affairs of the Caledonian Company excites great attention, and the appointment of a most scrupulous ac countant to aid in the inquiry seems to have caused fresh depression amongst those who doubt the solidity of this company's finances. But for an explanation of the quickness with which the entire railway market responds to the depression of Caledonian stock we must look to the general belief that the dividends of our railway companies, in the main, have not been fairly earned, and that a just distinction between capital and revenue has not been maintained. Directors and shareholders have been alike to blame for sup_ porting a false system, the chief features of which have been the making of unprofitable extensions and the declaration of unearned dividends. It is now becoming more generally recognised that rail way capital accounts, especially as regards the old lines, must be absolutely closed for a fixed period of years, in order that means may be afforded of ascertaining what are the real profits, unaided by these ceaseless additions to capital. The result of this ought to be that, with the aid of the ecmomies which will assuredly be found practicable, this vast property should regain at least a portion of the credit it has lost, for, even if lower dividends be paid, it will then be regarded by bankers and capitalists as presenting an inherent security in which it is now wanting. The Committee of Greek Bondholders have re ceived the following telegram from their agent, Mr. C. L. W.
