The half-yearly meeting of the shareholders was hold at 1 o'clock at the London Tavern ; Mr. JAMES GOOD SON in the obit. The report, whit* has &kiddy appeared in the Express, having bees taken es mad, The CHAIRMAN moved the adoption of the report and accounts. lie said he thought that although some pertain might be disposed to despond, the meeting generally would agree with him that the affairs of the company were in • better position than they had been for some years before. The traffic of the last half-year exhibited an increase of 46,0001., showiog that the *opposed finality of the amount of receipts on that line was a mistake. Among the encouraging features was the rapid rise of the town of thinstmiton and the development of the traffic of Lowestoft and Yarmouth. He believed the meeting would con cur with him that, under them circumstances, the increase of the plant was a wise step, and that the growth of the traffic was likely to continue. The augmented receipt; had, indeed, been accompanied with increased expenditure ; but in his opinion this would all teed to the permanent WHAM of the company, and he trusted that the company would have a considerable further increase in the powwow traffic. The permanent way had been very costly ; but it was now in • sound condition, and everyone centered that the travelling on their line was satisfactory. He regretted the delay which would take place in the distribution of the divideod but the board could not prevent it. From the steam-boata they must not expect any immediate advantage. A great deal had been said about their attempt to emerge from their own district. They were now in a better position for that purpose than they were a twelvemonth ago, hawing allied themselves with the Lancashire and Yorkah ispany, which had • capital of 20,000,q0001. arid a flourishing business. All the directors felt madams that the northern scheme, if carried out, would prove highly beneficial to the company. Land in the emcees counties district had, owing to the want of proper communi cation and development, been sold as low as 301. an acre —a much lower sem than it realised in many other distticte ; but he trusted that that state of things would not continue long. The leasing of the Blackwell Railway at 4i per cent. for 99 years would in his opinion prove advan tageous to the company. The expenditure on capital account mentioned in the report was far from being money thrown away. The ermines recently constructed for the eompany if ordered now would have cost 100,0001. more. Captain dear's, M.P., esocreded the motion. After some discasidoe the report was adopted. THE DEFENCE OF NAPOLEON BONAPARTE HY HIS NRPHEW.—ThIs is all very well. We have heard it often before, and we can understand such a defence in store for the last Demigod of the &must eerie*. But what is to hinder the like defence from being tendered and ac cepted is behalf of every career thought great, beneficial enough, or sacred enough to deserve it' If a great cause and a paramount necessity are to be a sufficient reply to every antic, and every biographer unworthy of his theme then there are many causes, and much necessity, prepared to plead that the sad justifies and even martian; the means. Nay, it is the very worst vice and the most fatal corruption of old dynasties and aristocracies, and other privileged bodies, that they have at last come to think themselves, as divinities and necessities, above moral mice, and not amenable to the reason and con science of men. They have come to hold that whatever happens, or whatever they do, their first duty is to exist and to hold their own. The worst abominations, when destroyed by treachery, by violence, and injustice, though they meet with • worthy end, yet bare some countenance and seeming exculpation by the faults of their destroyers. In England we all cherish • pious confi dence that it is possible to do anything which Providence may impose upon us, even the greatest works, without a necessity for means that will not bear a moral scrutiny. We cannot suppose that a superior power would ever put such a discord between • special call and a universal duty. We admit, indeed, and we deplore that the appointed in struments of great works and font:dere of greet systems have often been tempted to use fraud, falsehood, or violence from simple want of faith in themselves and their calling. But we do not recognise in the highest mission an excuse for evil means, or for a neglect of self-discipline and con trol.—Tina. LAITNCH OF THE DANA EE.—Yesterday afternoon the Royal Mail Company's fine screw steamer Danube was launched from the yard of the Minivan Iron Works Com pany, in the presence of a large number of spectators. The Danube is one of the finest of the company's liners. She measures 1,670 tons, is 222 feet long. 34 feet breadth of beam, and 17 feet 8 Mahes depth of hold. She will be fitted with oscillating engines of 300 horsepower, also manufactured by the Millwall Company, with tubular boilers, feathering paddle-wheels, surface condensers, Sc., and is in every other respect, both in bull and machinery, fitted up with all the latest improvements for the accom modation and comfort of a very large number of passengers. We understand that when finished her =loon will, without exception, he the very films of any afloat, while the arrange ments in every other part of the vessel are correspondingly ol the highest class. This company have on hand various, other large vowels, and they will shortly launch two paddle-wheel transports for the Turkish government, end also an armour-plated frigate for Italy. After the launch, which only occupied a few minutes, the company adjourned to the large dining room attached to the works, and partook of an elegant luncheon, at which Kr. Chapiaan, the deputy chairman of the Millard' Com pany, presided, when " Success to the Royal Mail Company' and various other toasts suitable to the occasion were drank, the health of the young lady, Miss Edwards, upon whom devolved the duty of christening the new steamer, being , io connection with the toast of " The Ladies." After given a great many of the visitors inspected the armour-plated ship Northumberland, which is now in a for ward state, and ie expected to be launched in about ten months. She is bolsi plated with 4i inch and 3 inch plates, end when completed will be one of the finest vessels in the ,scrim. LETTERS FOR OFFICERS AND SEAMEN SERVING OS BOARD HRH MAJESTY'S SHIPS ABROAD.—It has been observed that letter addressed to officers and seamen on board her Majesty's ships stationed at a foreign port are sometimes directed to the care of the British consul at that port, or to some other agent on shore, The privilege. however, enjoyed by the letters of officers and seamen, of passing through the poet at reduced rates of postage, is con fined to such as are addressed directly to the officer or sea man. All letters directed to the care of any other parson am liable to the ordinary rated postage, and in those came where pre-payment is necessary must be detained if such ordinary rate be not paid upon them.—By command of the Postmaster-General.—General Post-office, Feb. 27. THE EXPORT Or COAL FROM THE UNITED NINO DOIL—Meefra. W. and H. Laird, in their usual monthly coal circular, state that the exports of coal from the northern por tsl during the past month were 207,874 tons; from the Yorkshire ports. '21,039 tons ; from the Mersey, 49,426 tons ; from London 5,056 toes ; from the Severn porta, 204,117 tons; and from the Scotch port*, 24,762 tons ; making a total of 512,273 tone ; which when com pared with the corresponding month of 1864 shows a de crease of 19,431 tone. With reference to the coal exports from the Mersey, we understand that the pre eure now ex intiog opou the coal trade in Liverpool is about to be made the subject of discussion by the Chamber of Commerce of that town. THE LOCK-OUT IN THE IRON TRADIL—At Brier ley Bill, yesterday, a large meeting of delegates from various operative ironworkers from various parts of England, Scot land, and Wales, was held. The object of the meeting was to determine upon the action of the men relative to the notice of their masters, for a lockout to commence on Monday next, the 6th of March, unless in the meantime the paddlers on strike is North Staffordshire resume work on the reduced terms, which in every other district the men have accepted. A majority of the men were foe resisting the notice, but the delegates resolved to require the North Staffordshire men to resume work. THE AMERICAN BLOCEADE.—NARSAL I , JAN. 26.

Brown, who will be brought up presently, on the charge of burglary in the Strand, I may mention that One will also be charges against him for offences in the City ; and I trust that Mr. Burnaby, in making oat the examitment, will be kind enough so to word it that he may be taken to the City without a habeas. ifs. Burnaby (the chief clerk) said Le would bear the point in mind. Mr. Setup—Sorely, Mr. Lewis, you are net going to the City to-day ? Mr. Nelson, the City solicitor, said the Lord Mayor would be quite prepared to bear the case today. The prisoners wars then remitted to the City. The prisoner Brown, altar Scotty, was than placed at the berm the charge of burglary at Mr. Abrahams', an the &mad. Kr. Abrahams said he would not offer any further eel. drew, but should low apply for the committal of the primer for trial. The prisoner was committed. Mfr. Lewis mentioned that sines the discovery of five watches in the river Thames, near Blaokfriars-bridge, last evening, a vessel belonging to the Thames Police had bean mariently stationed at the spot, and this morning the diver had made a second deacisat with the apparatus of Mr. Reinke, of 79, Great Portland-street, and had found another watch, which was also identified by Mr. Walker. The date of the tide during the day had prevented any further descent from being made, but it was contemplated to send the diver down again to-morrow to maks further math. Impostor Potter, of the G division, stated thatSootty bad, is ISM, beam sentenced to 10 years' imprisonment for bur glary in Scotland. We understand that there is some foundation for the num that one of the prisoners had expressed a desire to sake a statement to the police, but it was not thought ax.. peanut for the ends of justice to make it public. Oa Saturday Inspector Potter went to Scotland for the Moose of arresting a man supposed to be • relation of Scotty. This man puma by the name of Miller, bet his tail um is said to be Barmy. Mr. Potter succeeded in mgoaniog him, and found on him • gold brooch, gold pin, sad gold earring, all identified by Mr. Walker ; a teak book on the Royal Bank of Scotland, h the lame of Miller, and showing 551. paid la; sad two shawls, which had been identified as • Whoa of the booty of a burglary in L►wraoce-lane.

In the stock markets to-day business is languid, and theigeneral tendency of prices rather unfavour able. Consols show a fresh decline of per cent. as regards the quotation foe the March settlement, while that foe money is unaltered. The govern. ment broker has bought 10,0001. New Three per Cent. Stock. Home railways are weaker. Foreigu stocks, however, are well supported. Alliance Bank shares, at 8 to 8,1 prem., chow scarcely any recovery from the severe fall which took place yesterday afternoon. There is a moderate demand for discounts to-day, and the rate for the beet three months' bills is still quoted 41 to 4} per cent. In the Stock Exchange, however, the charge for short loans on English government securities has risen to 3} to 4 per cent., the supply of money having diminished, through withdrawals to pay some of the half-yearly railway dividends. At Paris to-day, according to Mr. Reuter's tele gram, the Three per Cent. Routes opened at 67fr. 60c., being sc. lower than yesterday. Consols are now quoted 881 to 89 both for money and the account (March 9). The official business report is as follows :—Three per Cent. Consols, for money, 881, 89, 881 ; ditto for account, 89, 881; Three per Cents. Reduced, 881, 1. New Three per Cents., 881, 1, 1 ; Bank Stock, 246 ; India Stock, 215 ; ditto Five per Cent. Stock, 104, 1031; ditto Bonds, 10e., 14a. prem. ; and Exchequer Bills, 65., 3a. prem. Foreign stocks are steady, and as regards Greek, Spanish Passive and Certificates, and Turkish Bonds of 1862, an improvement of } tot percent. has taken place. Some of the present quotations are annexed, viz.:—Greek Bonds, 211 to ; Mexican, 26f to ; Confederate, 48 to 50, ex div. and drawing ; Spanish Passive, 321 to f ; the Certificates, 15} to f ; Turkish, of 1858, 721 to 731 ; ditto 1862, 71 to 1 ; and the Coneolidffe, 521 to 1. Transactions are recorded as follows ;—Brazilian, 1863, 821; Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents., 631 Egyptian, second issue, 1001.

International Financial shared, are now quoted 1 7-16 to 9-16 prem., ex div. ; General Credit, 115.16 to 21-16 prem., ex div. ; London irmancial, 6} to 1 prem., ex div. ; Imperial Mercantile, 11 to 2 prem., ex div. ; Hudson's Bay, 151 to 1 ; Ottoman SochSta GiniSrale, 2 tot prem., ex div. The quotations for the shares of some of the new companies are subjoined :—City of Milan Improvements, 3/ to 1 prem. ; Metropoli tan District Railways, 31 to 1 prem. ; China Steamship and Labuan Coal, 1 to oi die. ; Rio Janeiro Gas, Ito 1 prom. ; Weet London Docks and Warehouses, 11 to 2} prem. ; and Yarns Rail. way, t die to par. FOUR O'CLOCK. Consols are fist, at 894 to for money, and 881 to 89 for the account. There were no transactions in gold at the Bank yesterday. The demand for export is not very strong, and it is expected that the arrivals from Australia and America will prove for the present about sufficient to meet the continental demand. The Africa, being from Boston, has brought only 1,500/. in specie. The Royal Mail Company's steamer Shannon arrived at Southampton yesterday, with the West India and Pacific mails. Bhe has in specie 1,997,568 doles, or nearly 400,0001. sterling. She also brings the details of the manner in which the settlement of the Spanish Peruvian difficulty— news of which had previously been received here by telegram—was effected. It appears that the Spanish Admiral Pereja appeared before Callao with his fleet, and sent in an ultimatum which wax to be answered in 48 hours. It was ultimately accepted, with some alight modifications. The terms are described as much the same as those in sisted on by Senor Pacheco, the Spanish minister at Madrid, but with the addition that Peru is to pay 3,000,000 dole. (about 600,0001.) foe the expenses of the expedition. This shows the accu racy of the doubt expressed a few days ago with regard to the amount of the indemnity payable to Spain, which was then absurdly rumoured as 4,000,0001. sterling. The effect of the present ar rangement is that Peru at once regains possession of the Chincha Islands. We are informed that Mr. Duncan Fletcher, of London, who retired from the firm of Fletcher and Co., of China, in June last, but is still largely in- terested in the business through outstanding engage ments, has thought it right to call upon the house to wind-up their affairs, and that steps have been taken by him for that purpose, in conjunction with their creditors. The establishment has existed for many years, and has occupied a high position, but is understood to have made heavy losses of late, both in tea consigned to this country and in cotton goods sent from here to China. The liabilities are computed at about 500,0001., but the liquidation, it is believed, will prove satisfactory, the house being considered wealthy. At the meeting yesterday of the Continental Bank Corporation, the directors' report was adopted. It stated the total loss on the operations of the six months at 19,5001., which is reduced to 13,4091., after deducting the net balance of profits and the reserve fund. The directors recommended that the deficiency should be written off the capital account. . . . A few days ago it was officially announced that the "basis" of an amalgamation between the Alli ance and the Consolidated Banks bad been decided upon, subject only to the " arrangement of details." Yesterday afternoon it was authoritatively intimated that the ' negotiations for amalgamating the Alliance and Consolidated Banks have been broken off, in consequence of unforeseen difficulties which have arisen, irrespective of the business of either company, the committees on both sides hating declared themselves perfectly satisfied with their investigation so far as it bad gone." The im mediate consequence of this announcement was a great fall in Alliance Bank shares. The shares of the Consolidated Bank, on the other hand, were stronger. The annual meeting of the Van Diemen'a Land Company will be held on the 16th March. The half-yearly meeting of the Ottoman Railway Company will be held on the 31st March. Creditors of the Strand Music Hall Company (Limited) are required to send the particulars of their claims to Mr. William Turquand, the official liquidator, by the 16th of March, the 23rd of that month having been appointed by the Master of the Rolls for adjudicating upon them. The following is from the Levant Herald of the 15tb inst. The negotiations on far. Laing's scheme for the conver sion of the home debt have been resumed, and some im portant modifications have been made in the project, its success. we have reeeon to believe, may now be considered probable. One especially objectionable feature in the oriel eel form of the measure--a feature which would have placed the holders of the new stock in an analogous poaitios to the Porte to that occupied some three years ago by the Me:l eas bondholder' to the Juarez government—bas been eli minated, and the Ottoman Bank having at the same time, it is said, withdrawn its protest and left the atheism I. stand or fall on its merits, the affair may now be regarded es is a mock more likely tram to local scams at ell eves* their Mr. Laing's agents permitted themselves to hope ten days ago. Many important detail being still sub judice, it would be premature, if not unfair, to canvass their merits, and we therefore continue to suspeod serious criticism of the *aheme until the ism el its acceptance or rejection by the government have been finally settled. _ Yoanar EVIIMIG. wbich closed on Saturday at 89t, "buyers," for the 9th of Karel, opened this morning at the same quotation, and closed at 89 to 1.

There was, however,. a reduction of *to per cent. in Spanish Puttee Bonds and Certificates, and 1 in Montevidean scrip.

ExisiNATION AT BOW-STREBT.—(THIS DAY). At Bow-street Police-court this day (Tuesday) Mr. n od e roomed the examination of the several prises, ( u rg ed with committlag, or being conoarned in committing, lb , "met burglaries at the establiahments of Mr. Alan rids Strand ; Mr. Walker, of Corshill ; and Mr. J o b s ,* of Threadoenllnetrest, jeweller. Tsars bad excited even more public attention and in wed sea on the former occasion, sad the approaches to the c art were COOWAINI with persons eager to get a sight of the sas ses need hardly Nomad that at the oommence - sart-d the proosedings, the court was crowded to excess, sa d ambers of snow disappointed in obtaining admission, ma ma outside blocking the pussies to suffocation. Am oy* the gentlemen occupying seats on the bench sirs ieed George Gordon Lennox, Lord George Gorden owe, Load Hay, Lord logestro, and Sir Richard Mayne. g c. N i lson, the City solicitor, was also present. The following prisoners were brought up as remand : vrain, Brown, Sias Price, alias Scotty ; James and vas Hurley, William H. and Martha Jaffrey, Thomas j sal Lowit Brewerton, alias Bruton, Thomas and Anne The pronouns was eoecincted by Mr. George Lewis, )0., for Mr. Walker and Mr. Johnson ; end Mr. Ahrens, fr o m the offioe of Mr. Goofier, for Mr. Abrahams ; and p i t t Leaap, the barrister, instructed by Mr. Beard, der WS Jeffrey, Coals, and Brewerton. The case had been appointed to be heard at 12 o'closh, p e g sp to half-past 12 the prisoners had not been placed at Ile too. gr. Flowers having asked the eats of the delay, Seperinterdent Durkin (of the G division) stated mat it was thought.necemary that ass of the prisoners denied be seen by outdo witness, with a view to ascertain whether they could identify them. (It nay be explained that the practice is to place a pri mes for this purpose amongst a crowd of persons of similar ri med aspect, and then bring in the witness, to anticipate my objection which might arise if the witness had the op megamity of distisgnishisg the primmer by his conspicuous politico is the dock. This course was adopted on the pre set oecadoo. I A still further delay ensued, and an impression became prevalent that one of the prisoners bad offered to give in. locanstioa, and was now making a statement in another WOW. At five minutea to 1 o'clock the eight prisoners (Hurley, Jew, CadeT, and Brewerton) were plated at the bar. Mr. Abrams said he bad no evidence to connect these primers with the burglary at Mr. Abraham'''. Mr. Lewis—Sir, I again appear on the part of Mr. Walker sad also of Mr. Johnson, and possibly there will be other pomading against these prisoners for other burglaries com mitted in the city of London. And my application to you is igg gne prisoners be remitted to the city of London, where Neely all the witnesses reside, and where the offenses were exemitted. I need hardly point out the extreme conve ness of that course, and I imagine you would not be S elma to pet the witnesses to the inconvenience of combs In this distance. At the same time I repeat both on behalf dlr. Walker and Mr. Johnson that they feel the greatest pentode to the metropolitan polios foe the exertions and ability they have displayed in this case. Mr. Flower-1 understand, and would wish to know if it is the CAW that there is a man of the name of Roberts in csetedy at the Mansion-house ; is he supposed to be cos seted with these burglaries! Mr. Lewis—He is ; and at this moment be is detained at the Mansion-bones awaiting the arrival of Mr. Walker and UN other witnesses. Mr. Flowers—My difficulty, as I presume you are aware, wu the second section of Janie§ Act. Those persons were brought before me, and I did not see quite well bow I oould, without sufficient muse being shown, remit them to the City, which could only be done by a warrant, which, you will remember, sets forth that the principal witnesses reside in the City. Mr. Abrams now states that there is no evidence to coonect them with the case of Mr. Abrahams, and as you now state for the prosecution that the principal witnesses reside in the City, I think cams has been shown to justify me in sending them to be ex. deli the dea.
