That CXCIIRC will certainly not go down in the present temper of the country and the present set of the political tide. M. Dimly made a very creditable dib,lt in the tribune yesterday. His new bill on public fir struction is generally considered a good measure as far as it goes ; and, moreover, people believe it is not his fan; t that it does not go farther. Within the narrow limits which an enormous war budget leaves fur the budget of public instruction, he has dune almost more than could have been hoped for to make education more general and to im prove the quality of the instruction given. The necessities of his official position have reduced hiw to sanction the principle, which he admits he was opposed to till he became a minis ter, of the nomination of schoolmasters by the pre fects, the objection to which is that they thus became political agents, and are made extensive use of to put a proasure on the parents of children at the time of elect' . M. Duruy's excuse for stick ing to the prefectural patronage is that he knows of no ether way of preventing local jobbery. More over the prefect seldom personally chooses the schoolmaster, and practically has only a primary veto on the reomimendation of an inspector who is subordinate to the Minister of Public Instruc ii ii. The ultimate veto resides with the minister, and M. bunny says he has very often used it. The debate is adjourned to Monday. WEATHER REPORT.-(THIS DAY.) MoNDAT.AiCII 4.1 A.N. B. T. 1 W. W.

(Before Mr. Commissioner Goußourn.) I RE J. , FIN STEW A RT.•-.IOIKMENT. The banknipt was an engineer and ironfompler, of Mai:kw:ill.

Ilia honour now gave judgment. He raid he had care. fatly perused the proceedings, but with very little advan tage, for the examinations h a d been mu - t uncle sly pro longed. the object of which it was dinicult to conceive. Amidst the mass of papery , . he had looked in vain for the order of the Lords Justices in the appeal case ; all be found was a copy of a bill of costs. (Laughter.) The case in itself was a remarkable one. The bankrupt appeared to have been an acute and skilful man in his profession, but like many other men of that character. he had speculated rashly. At one time, as shown by the report of Mr. Smart, he had a surplus, but that soon disappeared ; liabilities of 40.0001. were incurred in a very short time, and to meet those there was not a farthing in the po un d. Of the three assignees, all men of high p -Qum in the commercial world, only one opposed. and it L.,•1 at bin instance that all the protracted examinations h ,•1 taken place, one of the assignees was Mr. Alderman l:ose, whose opinion the court was very anxious to hear, but it wan not very favourable to the bankrupt. The books had been very imperfectly kept, the ex cuse for which was, that the bankrupt being a scientific man, could not keep books in an intelligible form. The result was that a great expense bail been in curred in reducing this chaos to order, through the instru mentality of Mr. Smart. Eveii Mall must presumed to intend the necessary consequence of his own act ; and the count must bold that the bankrupt had kept bad books with a view to conceal the state of his affairs. To another charge, that of contract ing debts without probable means of payment, the bank rapt was clearly amenable, for he hail long been insolvent, and it was at any time a race for him to keep out of Whitecross-street. The court was bound to regard the conduct of the bankrupt since the bankruptcy, an.l it had been made quite clear that he was still carrying on the business in the name of his son. on the two grounds shove apecitied the court felt boon,' to suspend the order for nine months in reopect of each of those offences—keeping imperfect hooks sad contracting debts without means if payment ; but looking at the delay which had taken place, the IS months would date from the time of the bankrupt passing his examination (in March last). Protection would be given for a month, its renewal being dependent on the wish of the assignees. THE POLICE COURTS. (THIS DAY.) GREENWICH. O‘LLATT CAPTI•RE AND STRIA:I6LE WITH A RCRGLAR. Witham attsirrie, aged 25 a powerfully-built fellow, who statea that he belongs to danchester, was brought up on remand, before Mr. TraiU, charged with burglarionsly breaking and entering the dwelling-house of Mr. Alfred Mutiyard, High-rob l, Lee, and stealing several gold brooches and articles of silver plate ; and also with vio lently assaulting and wounding Mr. Charles Woodward, of Ilamilton-terrace, Lee, by striking him on the head with an iron jemmy. It appeared that* female in the service of the prosecutor had been sent to Greenwich to bring home a child, there being no one left at home at the time. On returning an hour er two afterwards she was in the act of entering the house when she perceived a light in an upstairs room. This amused her suspicion that something was wrong, and she proceeded to the house of Mr. Woodward, a neighbour, and communicated the fact to him. Mr. Woodward, accompanied by his non-in-law, proceeded to the beim, and on opening the street-door a glimmering light Was seen on the stairs, which was instantly ex tinguished. Mr. Woodward called twice, " Who is then •!" but received no answer. In another moment two men rushed down the stairs. The first man was the prisoner, and Mr. Woodward instantly grasped him by the collar, and held bin*, when a violent struggle took place, the prisoner striking him with an iron " jemmy." The second man, on running out of the house, received • blow from a stick from the son in.law, who then pursued him down a able Ins sage, where the fellow got on a low wall, and received another hlow from the stick on the back of his head, knocking him over into a running scream, but he suc ceeded in getting up and making his escape, leasing his hat behind. During this time Mr. Woodward awl the prisoner had been struggling together. and the sore-in-law, hearing the former call out that he had been stabbed, ran and found his father-in-law on the ground, bleeding copi ously from a wound ou the head, and the prisoner Tinder him. The prisoner sabl he haul not stabbed Mr. Wood ward, but had struck him with a piece of iron, and the son-in-haw then trod upon the prisoner's wrist and succeeded in getting from him the " jemmy " he was holding. Two other men then came up, and the prisoner was secured until the arrival of polioe-oon stable Stephens, 64 It division, and on being taken into the house and searched, a bundle, containing some of the silver articles, fell from his coat pocket, and other articles were found to have been let fall. The prisoner was found to be wearing an imitation gold chain from which a watch had evidently become detached during the struggle that had taken place, and an imitation gold watch was picked up outside the house. An examination of the premises was then made, and it was found that an entrance had been made by forcing open a door, drawers in the bedroom being also forcibly opened an-I various articles stolen, as also a cash-box, but this had been left behind, as it had been found to contain no thing but papers of no intrinsic value. The prisoner treated the charge in a moat impudent manner. and Mr. Trodll ordered the depositions to be taken, and the prisoner to be committed for trial. A MAN CHARGED WITH KILLING His WIER.— (THIS D.tt.)—On Satorday night, Police-constable Kilby, G, was called to the house No. 13, Vernlam-street, Gray's-inn-road, and there found that the wife of William George :Melly, a printer, was dead. Her bead was frac tured, and it appeared that she had been dead about two hours. The persons in the house gave different versions of the affair, ..orne saying that the deceused had fallen downstairs, and her husband had kicked her in the stomach, and others that her husband bad hit the back of her bead on the floor or on a stone, and had fractured her skull. The husband, who was the worse for liquor, when spoken to by the constable, said, " For God's sake fetch a doctor as I think m wife la dead. I have sent for two but they wil l not come !" The alleard., *mu% on the wife was committed about 7 o'clock in the even ing but the police were not called until 9 o'clock. Whether the deceased was the worse for liquor or not could not be amertainol, although she and her husband bad been drinking together in a neighbouring public. house a few minutes before the unhappy occurrence. Dr. Norton having examined the body and pronounced life extinct, the husband of the deceased was taken into cue. toly, and at the King's-cross-m:0 police-station he gave the name of William George tinelly, aged 57, a printer, and the charge that was entered against him was " drunk, and causing the death of his wife, Mary finelly, by breaking her head on stone ' and fracturing her skull." Dr. Norton said that the fracture on the skull was the cause of death. The body is now at the dead-house of the Holborn Union Workhouse. THE GREAT BULLION ROBBERY.—Some clue to the secret of this robbery has been found. The chief mate of the Waterloo, whose name is William Richardson, not Robinson, as stated in the earlier reports, was again interro gated on Friday, bythe directors of the General Steam Navi gation Company, at their offices in Lombard-street; he then disclosed his reasons for suspecting a lighter:nen as having home a hand in the robbery. It appears that only two men belongingtothe Waterloo were detained when thevesselleft the pool on Wednesday morning. These were the chief mate, already mentioned, and the Dutch sailor who kept watch, or was supposed to keep watch, during Tuesday night on deck. The missing barge was found early on Friday morning above bridge. Beyond the mere circum stance of the booty's having weighed more than two, or even three, men could well have managed to remove, there are appearances which induce the belief that a party of at least six in number were engaged in the felonious operations. THE GRRAT EASTERN.—This wonderful vessel is now nearly ready for her new duties—that of conveying passengers from New York to Brest for the Paris F.xhibi tion. She has undergone very extensive alterations by Messrs. Forrester and Co. (who of course made several sub-contracts), of the Vauxhall Foundry. She has received new boilers for the screw engines, and a new shaft for the paddle engines ; and Messrs. Forrester have also built for her use a st-el steam launch, 50 feet long by 20 feet wide. A steam steering apparatus has also been introduced. The space last occupied by the cable tanks has been fitted up with cabins, berths, and state rooms for passengers. These apartments, numbering over 500, are lofty and convenient. There will be berths for 3,000 passengers. The saloon ac commodation has been much increased. The deck saloon is a splendid apartment, 140 feet long and 24 feet wide, and will admit of 500 persona dining together. There are several smaller saloons. Altogether 2,000 persons may dine at once. The decorations are of the best and most elegant character. The total ontlay of this refitting will of course be immense, one estimate falls little short of 100,0001. The " peat ship" will leave the Mersey for New York on the 20th inst.—Lirtrpool Alb on. THE EXPRESS, MONDAY EVENING, MARCH 4, 1867. DETTLNG LONDON.-(THIS DAY.) THE LaNGTON BANK.

INQUEST.-(THIS DAY.) This morning at 10 o'clock Mr. W. d. Payne, the deputy coroner, resumed at Guy's Hospital the inquiry into the origin of a lire at No. 19, White-street, Borough, by which Mary Anne Toomey, aged '29 years, and her two children Michael and Elizabeth Toomey lost their lives. The evidence taken on the hat occitsion went to prove dint a fire broke out at No. 19 White-street, at four o'clock on the morning of Monday, the 2ith ult., and the whole house was destroyed in an hour. Mn.. Toomey leaped from a second floor u:ndow with a baby in her arena. She, as well as her daughter Elizabeth, subse quently died in the hospital from their injuries. Her son Michael was burnt to death in the building. The in quiry was adjourned until to-day in consequence of a coin , mumeation being noel° to the coroner att." dieting the outbreak of the fire to the act of an incendiary. Mr. Condall, the coroner's officer, said that the infant child of Mrs. Toomey had expire d in the hospital this (Monday) morning from the effects of the injuries which she had received on the day of the fire. Its name was Ellen Toomey, and it was seven months old. The deceased was the Natty that was in Mrs. Toomey's arms when she leaped from the second floor window. The Coroner said that he should resweer the jury, and all the evidence that bad been already taken in the other eases would then apply to thatone. The jury wen• accordingly resworn. Mr. Rigby, solicitor, appeared to watch the came on behalf of Mr. Tootney, and a gentleman from the office of Mr. Monday, solicitor, represented Mr. French. Mr. Howard was present on the part of the Royal Society for the Protection of Life from Fire. The Coroner ordered all the witnesses in the cue to leave the coin t. Michael Toomey, the father of the deceased children, was then called. He said that his daughter Elisabeth was burnt in the fire. He did not see any person sitting on alma. He saw a box thrown from a window. That caused Ellen's death. It fell on his child. (The witness here became quite ovzireome by his feelings, and burst out crying and walked over to the wall of the court and leant up against it.) He continued, and said—No one can feel for my lost family as I do. The children could have been saved. The witness Ilurrowes recalled, said that he had six children. He saved them all by getting them out of the secondloor window at the back of the house. Witness did nor see anything that oocuned in the front of the house during the lire. The back door was never locked at night. Any person could have entered the house. Witness had never heard any stranger in the house at night. The door was left on the latch at night. There were 18 peoplealeep ing in the house. Wheatley, fire-escape conductor, recalled, said that Mr. Toomey had made is mistake. about the box. It was not thrown out of the first-floor window. It was car ried out of the shop by a man during the tire. That man was dressed. Witness did not see his face. He was in a stooping position. Witness did not then know that the box hail been thrown on the child. The shutters were all down at the time. A juror mid that the wanes' was mistaken. The shut ters were not down. He was there at the time. No man could have come out of the shop at the time. The witness said his evidence was correct. Mr. Toomey wee very excited at the time, and therefore he thought the box fell from the window. In the comae of the evidence of the next witness, Ed ward Vim,. a shoemaker, it transpired that the son of the landlord of the house, Mr. Leach, was on the ju7. An officer in the Salvage Corps deposed that he had not found the remains of anything suspicious in .the The owner of the krope;ty. Mr. Obeli, by whom it was sub-let to Mr. h, was then examined. He said that the latter had had notice to quit, the notice expiring on the day of the fire. Mr. Obeli related to the jury the account of the circumstances of the fire given to him by Mr. and Mrs. Leach. Mr. Thomas Leach, 21, White-street, said that he had sub-let No. 19 in separate tenements. Mr. French occupied a shop and two rooms. Witness did not pay Mr. Obeli the 12s. a week rent, because he had completed several repairs. Notice to quit was then given by Mr. Obeli. Mr. French sent it to witness. Coroner—When did you see Mr. French after the fire? Witness—About 4 o'clock on the Monday morning I heard a bar &IL I got up and put on my drawers and trousers and ran into the street. The dogs there h.rking. The shop shutter was down and the iron bar was on the pavement. The shop was not on fire. The window was not broken. Some person must have taken the bar down from the street. Coroner—Was there anyone else in the street at that time besides yourself' Witness—Not a soul until Mr. French came and stood alongside me. I could ree a light burning in the parlour. I think it was some spirit alight. I saw the flare rising like so much spirits, Rlli g the parlour. The fire burnt very brisk. It appeared to come from the cupboard under the stairs and run along the counter, and thence towards the window of the shop, and set the sash alight. Coroner—Did it appear as if the counter had been pre pared for it by some spirit' Witness—lt ran very quick. Coroner—Who was the first person you maw there' Witness—Mr. French. He was out in the street. He came half a minute after I arrived. He was completely dressed. Mr. Toomey—He had his neck-tie on when I saw him looking at me out of the window. Witness—He and when he saw the Are, " Oh, dear," and then be walked towards St. George's Church. The witness then detailed at great length how on Friday last he and Mr. French had a few words about searching and disturbing the ruins of the burnt house. Mrs. G. French, the wife of Mr. French, was then examined. She was vary ill, and she said that her husband had broken his leg three years ago. The witness then described the burnt house. Half a hundred weight of coals and half a sack of coke were kept in the cupboard under the staircase. There was no oil or grease on the counter. There were no spirits in the house. [The inquest was proceeding when our report left.] The speech delivered by Sir Roundel' Palmer in the House of Commons on Friday, the gird of February, has been published, in a pamphlet form, under the title of "Our judicial system." ECCLESIASTICAL LAWYEIIS.—Mr. Chadwick WAS a lawyer, living in Barchester, who earned his bread from ecclesiastical business. His father, and his uncle, and his grandfather and granduncles, bad all been concerned in the ►ff.,irs of the diocese of Barchester. His uncle bad been bailiff to the episcopal estates, or steward as he had been called, in Bishop Griurtly's time, and still contrived to draw his income is some shape from the property of the see. The nephew had also been the legal assistant of the bishop in his latter days, and had been continued in that position by Bishop l'roudie, not from love, but from ex pediency. Mr. John Chadwick was one of those gentle men, two or three of whom are to be seen in connexion with every see—who seem to be hybrids—half-lay, half cleric. They dress like clergymen, and affect that mixture of clerical solemnity and clerical waggishness which is generally to be found among minor canons and vicar chorale of a cathedral. They hve, or at least have their offices, half in the Close and half out of it—dwelling as it were just on the borders of holy orders. They always wear white neck-handkerchiefs and black gloves ; and would be altogether clerical in their appearance, were it not that as regards the outward man they impinge somewhat on the characteristics of the undertaker. They savour of the church, but the savour is of the church's exterior. Any stranger thrown into chance contact with one of them would, from instinct, begin to talk of things ecclesiastical without any reference to things theological or things They are always most worthy men, much respected in the society of the Close, and I never heard of one of them whose life was not comfortable or whose children were left without provision. —The Lou Chronicle of Barret, No. 1:3.

The English funds are inquired for to-day, anti are slightly firmer, the resignation of three of the ministers who were opposed to the introduction of a practicable measure of reform being regarded as satisfactory, since it points to an apparent deter mination on the part of the majority of the Cabinet to attempt a settlement of this important question upon a liberal basis. British railway stocks, however, are still pressed for sale, and ex hibit a further fall, the chief reduction being in Great Western. In the foreign market, the mast important movement is a fresh rise of ;, per cent. in Chilian scrip.

Gonads are now quoted 90 15-16 to 91 1-16, both for money and the 7th inst., and 91 1-16 to 3-16 for the April settlement. Foreign stocks are rather quiet, but there is a good demand for Chilian scrip, which has risen per cent.

The cause of the severe depreciation in the Great Western Railway, one of the most im portant railway properties in the kingdom, is not merely the decline in the dividend to the almost nominal rate of 1 per cent. per annum. The holders of ordinary stock have the mortifica tion of seeing their claims thrust more and inure iuto the background by the ceaseless creation of preferential securities. At the same time the rumours circulated with regard to the general posi tion of this company's finances are of a nature to increase the doubts of those who main tain that the unsound policy followed by most of our railway companies, of keeping a large unfunded debt periodically redeemable will yet result in wide-spread embarrassments. The following relates to the New Granada debt: Wooers. Baring Brothers and Co. have reevived a re. inittance of 1,502. 1 ls. 10d. from the Custoo.-house of CArtagena on amount of New Granada disideads.—London, March 2, 1867. About 7,0001. in bar gold was sent into the Bank on Saturday. The Anglesey has arrived from 31elhorrne with 46,0001. in gold. The total amount of specie and bullion now awaiting disposal is 752,0001., of which 580,0001. is silver and 172,000/. gold. s already mentioned, the whole is expected to be sent abroad. The steamer Nyanza will to-day only 17,080/. in silver for Bombay. . . . . An appeal petition was lodged on Friday at the House of Lords on the part of Mr. Peek and Mr. Oakes, two members of the Defence Association of Overend, Gurney, and Co., against the recent de e'sion of Vice-Chancellor Matins. It is under stood that on Thursday next Mr. Oalcks case is to be re-argued betore the Vice-Chancellor, in order to introduce some further important evidence, which, it is considered, will strengthen the case when brought forward for the final decision of the higher court. We are requested by the Committee of Deben ture-holders of the London, Chatham, and Dover Railway to state that the meeting advertised for to-day (Monday) " has been called without their knowledge or consent, and that, pending the pro gress of negotiations with the directors, they con• eider it premature to call a meeting to enter into discussions." It appears that a provisional commitko has been formed with a view to the reorganisation of the Bank of Hindustan, China, and Japan (Limited). The objects sought are to carry out the liquidation of the Bank of Hindustan by a working bank, which it is urged will be not only the cheaper and quicker mode of liquidation, but will also ensure the realisation of the assets of the bank to the greatest advantage ; to guarantee to the share holders immunity from calls for two years; and, according to the programme contemplated, to ensure to the creditors the payment of their claims more expeditiously than could be done under liquidation. The successful resuscitation of the Agra Bank naturally suggests that an effort should be made in the same sense m this case also. The annual meeting of the Canada (Land) Com pany is convened for the 27th inst. An extraordinary general meet ingof the National Land Company (Limited) is called for the 13th inst., to consider a resolution for going into liqui dation. _ _ It is notified that the transfer books of the Cen tral Argentine Railway Company (Limited) will be closed from the 22nd to the 29th inst., for the purpose of making up the guaranteed interest at 7 per cent. per annum for the six months ending the 25th. _ _ _ — A petition for the winding up of the London Engineering and Iron Ship-building Company (Limited) is to be heard before the Master of the Itolls on the 9th inst.

Consols, which dosed yesterday at 91 to 3 both for money and next Thursday's settlement, opened this morning at the same quotation, and closed at 903 to 91.

Not only have the enhanced price both in wages and materials, and the continued pres sure in the money market, tended to increase considerably the expenses, but the effects of the recent financial crisis, and the unfavourable weather which prevailed during the summer and winter months, have had a prejudicial effect upon the traffic receipts. The reports of the engineers and the locomotive superintendent will explain more par ticularly the causes which have led to the increased expen diture in their departments. After providing for all fixed and preference charges the available balance will admit of the payment of the following dividends, vix. :—On Great Western consolidated stock at the rate of V. per cent. per annum ; on West Midland (Oxford) stock at the rate of Ss. per cent. per annum ; un West Midland (New port) stock at the rate of 7s. teL per cent. per annum ; on South Wales consolidated stock at the rate of 31.:a. per cent. par annum ; on Vale of Heath consolidated stock at the rate of N. per cent, per annum. The balance to be carried forward will amount to 21,0431. 16e. Bd. In ac cordance with the provisions of the Great Western (Further Powers) Act, 1866, it becomes necessary that the dividends on the preference stocks of the original section, which have hitherto been cdculated up to the 30th Jane and 31st December shall in future be calculated to the 31st January and 3ist July in each year, being the periods to which the dividends on the preference stocks of the other sections of the company are payable. The holders of these stocks would, therefore, now be entitled to a dividend for seven months, to the 31st January last, par able simultaneously with the dividends on the other pre ference stocks of the company. Having regard to the large and exceptional extent to which the revenue has necessarily been appropriated in discharge of temporary loans and other liabilities on capital account, which, but for the unusual state of the money market, and the ilistrumt of all railway securities, would have been defrayed by the issue of preterence stocks, the directors have no alternative but to recommend that the payment of the dividends on the ordinary capital should deferred. They are of opinion that this course, however inconvenient to individuals, is the only one by which the financial condition of the company will be placed in a position which will inspire public confidence, and by which its credit will be maintained. In pursuance of the notice which has been given, the approval of the pro prietors will be asked to a bill now before parliament, For Conferring further Powers on the Great Western Railway Company in relation to their own undertaking and the undertakings of other companies, and for other purposes.' A hill has been intro laced into parliament by the London and South-Western, the Bristol and Exeter, and the South-Devon Railway Companies, jointly with this com pa ny, hating for its object the improvement of traffic arrangements, and the more effectual utilising of the railways in the West of England. The proprietors will have the oppor tunity of considering the details of this measure, when it is sulenitted for their approval, at • meeting which must be specially convened for the purpose. It may be suffi cient now to state that the directors hope, by means of improved facilities for interchange of traffic, ny an eaten. lion of through booking and through rates and fares, and by the establishment of friendly relations between all the companies to afford increased accommodation, and to bring abo ut results which, while beneficial to the public, will be attended with economy and advantages to the companies concerned. The bills affecting this com pany at the commencement of the present session of par. Bement, are considerably fewer in number than those by which it has usually been threatened. Some of them, however, affect materially the interests of the company, and will require the careful attention of the directors." Regret is afterwards expressed that the continuance of monetary pressure has prevented the completion of any general scheme for the completion of the narrow and further at the resignation during the half-year ftl e r: Walpole, MP., and Mr. Watkin, M.P., as directors. It is added, among other things, that Mr. Walter Stevenson, who has held important offices of trust for nearly 30 years, having been compelled by ill health to tender his resignation, has received • superannuation allowance.

TUB RED, WRITE, AND BLU E. —Dov ER, MARCH 3. To the astonishment of every observer, the little ship Red. White, and Blue, which arrived here from Gravesend on the lit inst., was towed out to-day, though it was blowing a gale from the eastward, and a heavy sea running. The tug Palmerston shipped a sea, filling her decks. The little ship, being outside the Admiralty pier, made sail, and allayed her course for Havre. LIFEBOAT SERVICE. --CAISTOR, NORFOLR, MARCH I.—During blowing weather last night (states the Rev. G. W. Steward) signal lights of distress were seen by the henchmen. The " Birmingham No. 2" lifeboat of the National Lifeboat Institution was thereupon promptly launched, and found a vessel lying on the outer side of the Inner Barber Sand in the midst of the swell of the sea and beating on the sand. The Serathy lifeboat cone up about half an hour afterwards, and with the help of the two lifeboats the vessel was got off the sand, and taken into Yarmouth by daylight. She was a large fishing smack, The Striver, of Yarmouth, with a crew of four men and a boy, and was bound homeward from the fishing ground. SHIPMENT or FLOUR, —For some time past large shipments of flour have been made on the steamers from California to New York by way of the Isthmus. It seems strange that this article can boar such heavy freight to find a market in the Atlantic states, when but a short time ago whole cargoes were shipped at a profit from New York to San Francisco. Of late the steamers have been bringing down hundreds of tons of California flour each trip.—Panama Star.
