LONDON AND BLACKWALL RAILWAY SPECIAL MEETING-THIS DAY. A special meeting of the proprietors of this company was held this day at the London Tavern, for the purpose of considering and determining upon the exercise of the powers conferred by the London and Blackwall Railway Act, 1862, with reference to the raising of capital, and the cancelling shares created under the powers of the London and Black wall Railway Act, 1860, and the creation of new shares in lieu thereof ; and to consider and determine upon the pre ferential, fixed, fluctuating, contingent, perpetual, or ter minable dividend, and such other privileges or restrictions as the company may think fit to be attached to such new shares, and also to any preference shares into which any ordinary shares created under the Act of 1860 may be con verted. At a meeting of the proprietors, in August, 1850, it was resolved to create 46,154 shares of £6 10s. each, for the pur pose of raising the £300,000 capital, authorised by "The London and Blackwall Railway Act,- 1860." Of those shares, 24,735, representing £160,777 10s., were taken up by the proprietors, and 21,419 shares, representing £139,223. 108., remain unissued. It was r)posed at the present meeting to cancel the 21,419 shart n,t issued, and to create in lieu thereof the same number of shares of £6 10s. each, and to attach' to such shares a preferential per petual dividend at the rate of £4 108. per cent. per annum on the amount for the time being paid up. The CHAIRMAN briefly moved resolutions carrying out the recommendation , of the directors, at the same time ex pressing an opinion that the new shares would be readily taken up, The resolutions were agreed to unanimously. [The mode in which the tickets have been issued by this company have long been a source of inconvenience and complaint, and it was expected that notice of the circum stance would have been taken of the system by some of the assembled shareholders, as yesterday the temporary ar rangement which was made for the accommodation of the holiday folk was considered to be an improvement on the plan. By the mode, which has for years been in operation, all pas sengers, first and second (which includes third class) male and female, have to pass through a narrow barrier placed in front of the centre of three windows, to the imminent risk of their dresses and pockets, to procure their tickets. The directors most certainly ought to have had some conside ration for ladies who are willing to pay first-class fares, and not compel them to pass pell-mell through the narrow way between a number of gigantic navvies on the way to work on the main drainage operations, especially as their language is not always fit for ears polite, or the perfume of their garments redolent of lavender. Yesterday the two side ticket windows were opened in place of the middle one, and the obtaining of the requisite bits of pasteboard was a matter easy of accomplishment. If the new arrangement is to be made permanent, all that will be required is to fix one of the windows for the issue of first, and the other for second-class tickets, and to erect a slight partition between the two, so that each class will have that which they pay for, viz., good and sufficient accommodation.]-- En. Sux. MONEY MARKET. CITY NEWS, YESTERDAY. A check was given to the stock markets this morning by the success gained by the Confederates over the Federals, which appears to discourage the idea of an early termination of the war. The stag nation of business is further increased by an expecta tion that money will become somewhat dearer, although no indication of an anxious character is presented. Meanwhile there is a steady demand for all good investments. Indian railway securities, amongst others, were in increased request to-day. The English funds were flat, owing to the full supply of stock shown at the settlement now in progress, and any tendency to recovery was pre vented in the afternoon by a withdrawal of gold from the Bank. English railway stocks were strengthened during the latter part of the day by the anticipation of better receipts from the now rising Exhibition traffic. American securities have given way, in consequence of the news from New York. Italian Five per Cents. and Lombardo-Vene tian Railway shares were very buoyant. The demand for money, both at the Bank of England and elsewhere, was only moderate, but owing to the prevailing idea that the exportation of bullion on account of foreign loans will ere long cause a further slight advance in the rate of dis count, holders of money evince a disposition to charge protective rates. Good bills having more than a month to run can scarcely be placed at 3 per cent., while for three months paper the charge is above the Bank minimum. A similar indisposi- tion to enter into long engagements, unless at a proportionate advance in terms, is shown in the Stock Exchange, where only 11 per cent. is required for loans on Government securities from day to day, while for a month 21, or 21 is asked. At Paris to-day the Three per Cent.Rentes opened at 68.95 ex div., and closed at 69 for money, and £9.05 for the account, showing a rise of - 4 1 , to a per cent. since Saturday afternoon. The fortnightly settlement in shares and foreign stocks will commence on Wednesday (" continua- _ Lion" day) and terminate on Friday. A telegram from Revel, dated June 8, mentions the stranding on Neckmann's Ground of the steamer Trent, Captain Brown, bound from Hull to Cron stadt with goods. One compartment and the en gine room were filled with water. The crew and passengers were saved. The American news has caused a fresh rise of id. to id. per lb. in the price of cotton at Liverpool to day. The transactions were considerable, reaching 10,000 bales. The rise in the American exchange and in the premium on gold at New York is partly occa sioned by the demand for remittance against realisat:on of securities by English holders. The holders of Moorish bonds will be glad to learn that the funds required for the interest and sinking fund due August Ist are furnished without the necessity of having recourse, in any way, to the customs revenues specially hypothecated to the loan. It has before been pointed out that Morocco occupies an exceptional position amongst foreign States, inasmuch as she has no debt and no stand ing army. The bonds have been dealt in to-day as high as 921, being equal to 72 pram on the issue price, and are now so completely absorbed by in -vestors that it is difficult to effect a purehase even of small amount. 100,000 sovereigns were taken from the Bank to day for transmission to Constantinople, and a fur ther total of 200,000 is expected to be withdrawn to-morrow. £200,000 in Russian imperials, part of the £600,000 recently bought by Messrs. Rothschild for transmission to St. Petersburg, was taken from the Bank to-day, but was paid for by a like amount in bar gold. The limited a mount of bar silver brought by the Mexican packet has been sold at 61i d. per oz., being an advance of a d. as compar©d with tile last arrival, but a decline of id. from the rate lately realised. The dollars,which constitute the bulk of the arrival, are not yet disposed of. The next instalment of 15 per cent. on the Egyp. tian loan of -.22,195,200 becomes due to-morrow. This will make 45 per cent. paid out of the contract price of 84. Subscribers will at the same time continue to have the option of paying up in full and being a'dowed 7 per cent. discount. CITY NEWS---THIS DAN CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. Business in the Foreign and Colonial Produce Mark e t s h as continued very inactive owing the absence t absence o f many of the principal dealers during thee Whitsuntide holidays. In the private market there has been a fair inquiry for tea, at full rates. Sugars have continued dull, and coffee, rice, and spices are nominally at previous quotations. Salt petre has declined 2s. to 2s. 6d. per cwt. ; but tallow has continued rather active, at 465. 6d. per cwt. on the spot, and 48s. 9d. to 495. for last three months' delivery. Two O'CLocit. The annual meeting of the Bank of British North America took place to-day. Mr. Rubert Carter in the chair. The report stated that the profits for the year amounted to £6l which amou nt ,212 4 s ld. O u t of the directors have declared a half y nextearly at dividend, p aya b le on and after the sth July , the rate of 6 per cent, per annum, free of income-tax ; leaving th e sum of £1,212 4s ld to be added to the rest or bal ance of undivided profit, which, including this addition, amounted, on 31st December, 1861, to £126,978 7s ld, atter providing for the dividend that was paid in January last. The Chairman, who moved the adoption of the re t remarked that he was to to hear great disappointment expressed by the shareholders at the small dividend proposed to be paid in spite of the favourable business transactions of the bank during the past year. This circumstance had arisen from the directors having to provide for bad debts which had accrued during the distress of the year 1857. It was stated that the amount pinced to the debit of the reserve fund for bad and doubtful debts was £20,000; the sum taken from the profits of last year to the credit of that fund, £24,000; the amount considered requisite to cover the contin gencies of last year's business, £7,000. The report was adopted, and the retiring directors re-elected. Extreme quietude has pervaded the Stock-Ex change Market to-day, the settlement of the account in Consols having occupied exclusive attention. The Funds are 91-'1 for money, and 92 1 for the 10th proximo. The New Threes and the Reduced are flat at 911 ; Exchequer Bills have receded to 4s. prem, ; Bank Stock is 2341 and 236; India ditto, 231'; and ditto 5 per Cent., 107 Z 2. In the Foreign Market business is dull, and prices show very little change. Turkish 6 per Cents. are 821 ; ditto 1858, 701; ditto New Scrip remain at 3 prem.; Egyptian, at la t . prem. ; Mexican, at 312; Russian 5 per Cents. are flat, at 97; ditto New Scrip i@ nominally s 1 prem.; and Spanish Certificates are heavy, at 81 to 91 ; Italian have improved to 721 t. The Committee of the Stock Exchange have ap' ? pointed the following sitting days, viz. :—The 12th inst. for Brazilian Bank, Westminste r Brewery, Northern Counties Bank, and in the Don Pedro North Del Rey Gold Mining, and Monday, the 16th in the Bombay Gus Company. In the Railway Share Market business has con- tinned exceedingly dull, and the variations have barely exceeded 4 per cent. North Eastern (Ber wick), Midlands, and Lancashire and Yorkshire have improved 55., and South Easterns 10s. The Foreign and Colonial lines also remained very is inactive. South Austrian and Lombardo-Venetian, however, have improved to 221 I, Cape Town and Dock to 107, and Great Indian Peninsula are steady at 1041- 105. Joint Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares gene rally support former prices. London and County, however, have receded to 373, and National Pro vincial of England have improved to 13U.

The fourteenth ordinary general meeting of the directors and shareholders in this company was held this day at the London Tavern, for the purpose of receiving the directors' report, and re-election of the retiring officers. Mr. Farquhar, chairman of the board, presided. The report, which has already appeared in The Sun, having been taken as read, The CHAIRMAN rose to move its adoption. He said the directors had thought it would be unwise to attempt to get up a ecrunter attraction to the Industrial Exhibition, the expense of which had, ho thought, been wisely laid out in putting their own building into the most thorough repair, intending to rely on the attraction it presented. The great number of foreigners expected to visit this country in the autumn would, he had no doubt, visit the Crystal Palace at Sydenham. Yesterday, notwithstanding the attraction at Kensington, the number of visitors was greater than those of the corresponding day of last year. The Handel Festival, it was confidently expected, would result in a great success, and at the end of the financial year the directors confidently ex- pected they would be able to declare a good and increased divi dend. Before he formally moved the adoption of the report, he would allude to one portion of it, which was of a very disagreeable nature, viz., the determination of the directors to remove ono of their body on account of certain allega tions made against him. The charges were founded on a case in which Mr. England was concerned, and which was reported in the papers in April last. The Times and other newspapers had called attention to the subject, but the matter referred solely to the domestic character and per sonal conduct of Mr. England, and had nothing whatever to do with him in his office of director in this or any other company. If the shareholders did not confirm the decision of the board, he and the other eight directors who were associated with him in repudiating Mr. England's conduct must part company, becau-e if such conduct was tolerated in a public company it would give a stamp of genuineness to the rumour that anything was go xl enough for a public company. - . Mr. ANDERSON seconded the motion for the adoption of the report. Mr. ENGLAND said there was no connection between his private affairs and his duties as a director of this company. He had effected great reforms in the company, and had brought about the payment of a dividend. He had thus, he had no doubt, made many enemies, who were now seek ing to remove him from his seat at the board. If this had been a genuine expression of opinion on the part of his col leagues, he should bow to it at once. He had got rid of several superintendents out of the company, and the chair man said that it he succeeded in getting rid of Mt. Bowley or Mr. Grove, he, would get rid of him (the chairman). He did not wish to interfere with any active officers, but there were maty drones in the hive who ought to be got rid of, and hence the opposition to him. There was a jealousy on the part of the directors that he was obtaining too much influence in the company. He went at great length into the matters connected with his office of director, showing in detail the expenditure he had saved. Mr. JENKINS moved an amendment to the effect that that portion of the report relating to Mr. England be struck out as being neither necessary or advisable. He said that Mr. England had been the Joseph Hume of the company, as he had swept away all the cobwebs of the company. Mr. PUNCHER seconded the amendment. Mr. HARVEY GEORGE wished to move another amend. ment. The UIIAIRMAN explained that that could not be done until the first amendment had been disposed of. Mr. JENKINS withdrew his amendment, when Mr. GEORGE moved the following :—" That the words in the report, ' The prospects of the company are encour aging,' be struck out, and that the words be substituted, Tho prospects of the company not being encouraging, it is expedient that a committee of general inquiry into the general management of the business of this company be appointed, and that the meeting be adjourned pending that report.' " Mr. ANTHONY seconded the motion. After a long discussion the CHAIRMAN put the amend ment. The hands held up being nearly equal, the Chair man called for a division, when the numbers were—For the amendment, 96 ; against it, 90; the amendment was there fore carried against the directors. A long and angry discussion having taken place, a ballot was demanded and granted. Mr. Er GLAND said, after the victory that had been achieved, he would resign his seat at the board, and the shareholders could re-elect him if they should think fit. The meeting was then adjourned until Friday, the 20th, at two o'clock, to receive the result of the ballot. R , F - IRE AT MESSRS. PICKFORD'S, WOOD s C HEir SIDE ,— (TH IS DAY.)—This mornin g a firebi:EET °k in the immense rang e of p remises belonging to Messrs. P e i o c u k t ford, the well-known carriers, situate in Wood -st reet ' Cheapsid e. The flames when discovered were raging in t he store-rooms connected with the stables, and the fire quickly extended to two lofts over, threatening at one time very serious consequences. The alarm having been promptly given, in a very few minutes Capt. Shaw attended with the land steam engine by Shand and Mason, and several ma nual power engines. A good supply of bater having been procured, the engines were set to work, the fire could not be extinguished until the storeroom was burned out, the two lofts over and their contents consumed. The roof was also destroyed. The goods stores sustained not the least injury. LEECHES —Dr. Ebrard observes that an adult leech gorged with blood requires nearly eighteen months, in a state of captivity, for the process of digestion. Young and free specimens accomplish the same task in six weeks or two months. IHE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, JUNE 10, 1862. SHARE MARKET---THIS DAY. ORDINARY SHARES AND STOuhS.

The inquest on the bodies of Ada Minnie Boor, aged 16 months, and Sarah Bourdeaux, aged 31, who were burnt to death at the explosion at 55, Bishopsgate-street, on Saturday morning last, was held this afternoon, and resulted in a verdict of accidental death. SHEFFIELD CEMETERY DISCLOSURES. Isaac Howard, the sexton of St. Philip's burial ground, was apprehended yesterday morning at the Red Lion Hotel, Maeborough, by detective-officers Airey and Brayshaw. He had sent word to the police of hi 3 intention to come to Sheffield by the first train from the South yesterday morning, having been staying at Bakewell and Derby since the riots. The officers went to meet him at the station, but he did not arrive by the early train, in consequence of having been accidentally detained at Eckington. Subsequently, hearing that he had arrived at Masborough by a late train, Airey and Brayshaw went to search the public-houses there, and found him at the Red Lion. He came volun tarily with them to Sheffield, supposing they had merely come to protect him from any violence that might be offered on the way. They, however, held a warrant for his appre hension, issued by the magistrates at the termination of the inquiry on Saturday. Howard appeared before the magistrates in support of the application for compensation for the damage done to his house, and Detective.officer Brayshaw then produced the warrant, and applied to the bench to remand the prisoner on a charge of having illegally removed the remains of a child of William Shear man, of Philadelphia. Howard seemed much sur prised at the application,not having been previously aware that he was in custody. Mr. Broadbent applied on his behalf to the magistrates to admit him to bail, but they declined, to do so, Mr. A. Smith remarking that that was quite out of the question, as it was at present impossible to say what charges might arise against the prisoner. Howard was therefore remanded until Friday next. He was evidently very nervous and excited. Howard claimed £l6O for damages to his house, £2OO damages to his furniture, and £l6 for money which was in the house. Mr. Livesey applied for leave to prove damage amounting to .£2B to the freehold of the cemetery ani buildings, and .£l7 is. 6d. for damage to the furniture, books, &c., in the vestry. The applications were formally taken, placing both Howard and Mr. Livesey in a position to bring actions against the county for recovery of the damage. COURSE OF EXCHANGE.--Tats DAT.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET. ASSAULT ON A LICENSED VICTUALLER, AND WILFUL DAMAGE.—William Farmer, a rough-looking fellow, was charged with assaulting, while drunk, Mr. Thos. Swallow, of the Coffeehouse Tavern, Silver-street, Gclden-square, and also with smashing a pane of glass of the value of 305., and breaking a watch chain. Mr. Swallow said the prisoner came into his house the previous evening about eight and pushed against two females who were taking wine. He told the prisoner that as he had not been served he had better leave, and then went round the counter to put the prisoner out, when he seized and struck him (Mr. Swallow) several times, and broke a pane of glass of the value of 30s. The prisoner also broke his watch chain and had his watch in his pocket, and at first would not give it up. Weeks, 155 C, said he was called to the house to take prisoner into custody for stealing Mr. Swallow's watch, but at the station Mr. Swallow s a id as the prisoner was drunk he would only charge him with the assault and damage. Mr. Swallow said he did not think the prisoner meant to steal his watch. Mr. Tyrwhitt said he had no doubt Mr. Swallow would be satisfied if the prisoner paid the damage, and in de fault of his doing so he would be committed for two months. MURDEROUS ASSAULT BY A CRIPPLE.—James Tobin, a lame man, walking with a thick stick, was charged with the following savage assault on Patrick Driscoll. The complainant went into a publichouse—the Crown, High -street- and the prisoner, who was there when he went in, called him a dog. On the complainant asking what he said the prisoner took up a thick stick he walked with, being lame, and struck the complainant a violent blow on the head, inflicting a severe wound on his forehead and deluging him with blood. The complainant was then taken to the Charing-cross Hospital, where he had his head I dressed, having lost a large quantity of blood, and he was even while in court very weak from the effects of the blow. A constable produced the stick—a formidable weapon is the hands of a savage fellow. The prisoner produced an Irish witness, who said the prisoner did tap the complainant's head lightly. Mr. Tyrwhitt—What you call " tinderly." (Laughter.) The prisoner must pay 40s. or a month. THE CASE OF MRS. FinD.—Xs, the donation of R. G., was received by the magistrate for Mrs. Field, the wife of a cabdriver who was killed in an affray a few days ago by another cabdriver. The poor widow is left with six children dependent on her, one of tbem being afflicted with a spinal complaint, and she being herself in bad health. THANES, STEALING GOODS ON TRANSIT.—TRIEVES AND RE CEIVERS.—Edward Ballard, aged 21, Ribhard Odd, 14, Joseph Shea, 32, Caroline Shea, SO, and Thomas Halliday, 46, were brought before Mr. Woolrych, charged, the two first with stealing a large quantity of wool, the property of Mr. Joseph Hornby Baxendale, trading as "Pickford and C 0.," their employer and master ; and the other three with receiving the property, well knowing the same to be stolen. Mr. Gomm, articled clerk to Mr. John Hodgson, solici tor, of Arbour-square, Stepney, defended the Sheas and This prosecution was instituted by Mr. John Gale, superintendent and manager of the goods department at the Haydon-squere Railway Station, Minories. The prisoners Ballard and Odd went to the East India Dock on Saturday last with a waggon and horses to fetch a load of wool con signed to a firm in the city. On the way from the East India dock to the city a bale of wool was rippe i open by Ballard and Odd, 26 lbs. of wocl taken out and sold at the shop of the Sheas in Great Alio street, Whitechapel. In consequence of the early closing of the establishment in the city to which the load of wool was consigned, it was removed to Pickford and Co.'s warehouses in the City •road, the Haydon-equare depot being full of goods. Mr. Gale examined the load consisting of 20 bales of wool, and found one had been ripped open. The boy Odd afterwards made a full confession to Mr. Gale, who held out no promise to him. Odd was ordered to leave the dock and was sworn as a witness. He said Ballard was the driver cf the ♦an from the East India dock to the City-road on Saturday. They ripped open a bale and took some of the wool out. The horses and van were stopped near the marine stare-dealer's shop, and Ballard gave him the wool they had stolen. It was concealed in a corn bag. He carried it into Shea's shop, and saw Halliday there. The wool was weighed by Halliday, who called out 211bs; one pound was allowed for the corn bag. He received 10s., or 6d. per lb. for the wool. He gave Ballard ss. of the money. The van and horses were stopped opposite the Minories while he was selling the wool. On cross-examination by Mr. Gomm, Odd said it was about 7in the evening when he sold the wool. Mrs. Shea was in the parlour behind the shop, and gave Halli day the money when he called out the weight. Patrick Geraghty and Daniel Davey, police constables of the II division, stated that they searched Shea's marine store shop yesterday, and found the package of stolen wcol and 4501b5. of other wool, of which Mr. and Mrs. Shea and Halliday could give no satisfactory account. They believed the whole of the wool was stolen, and had been taken out of bales while in transit between the docks and the City. In answer to questions by Mr. Woolrych, the constables said that both Mr. and Mrs. Shea denied there was any wool in the house in Groat Alie-street befo:o they made the search. Mr. Gale—The stolen wool produc3d, for which the boy was paid 61. per lb., is worth ls. Bd. per lb. It is beauti ful wool. Mr. Gomm would not deny that Mrs. Shea and her ser vant Halliday were in the shop on Saturday, but Mr. Shea, who had another and larger establishment at Stratford, was not in Great Mill-street the whole of Saturday until ten o'clock at night. Mr. Woolrych—For the present I shall hold Joseph Shea responsible es well as his wife. How do they account for the wool found in their shop ? Geraghty and Davey believed they could find owners for all the wool, which they valued at £35. Mr. Woolrych—A portion of it, purchased at 6d. per lb., less than a third of its value, is already identified. I shall remand Shea and his wife, Halliday, and Ballard, for a week. Mr. Gomm offered bail for Mr. and Mrs. Shea, and said the latter was far advanced in pregnancy, and very ill. Mr. Woolrych—l will take substantial bail, two sureties of £6O each, for each of them, with notice. It must be very good bail. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE, BETTING AT MANCHESTER-MONDAY; The feature of the day was settling. There was a heavy commission for Brighton for the Northumberland Plate, finishing at sto 1 (taken).

THE UNITED ALL ENGLAND ELEVEN .— FOR THE BEN EFIT re r t m ed ate t h o this we b L e e t Tr w dh e es en the first-rate professionals of the game. From between 5,000 and 6,0 W persons were present on the ground, upwards of 5,000 paying at the gate. Some slight altt-Jra tion was made in the list of the All England Eleven., G. Anderson and J. Thewlis being s u b s tit uted for G. arr and R. C. Tinley, who were incapacitated from injuries received in previous matches. The ground was in excel lent condition (rather lively), and at about twelve o'clock the United Eleven, having won the toss, took possession of the wickets by sending in Mortlock and Bennett, Jacks on and Willeher being the bowlers. Mortlock was caught after making four, and was succeeded by Carpenter, wh o lost his companion for three. Carpenter made an able defence, and lost the company of four for small figur;es, when Lockyer faced him, and runs were rapidly made by both, causing a change in the bowling, Hayward relieving Jackson of the ball. For some time no effect took place, at length, however, Lockyer gave a chance to Caesar, at "point," who availed himself of it. Lockyer's score of 21 was not long being made : it comprised a five (drive)., a four, and two twos. No other double figures were mad e , and Carpenter carried his bat out with a brilliant innings o f 68, amidst much applause ; in it were five fours, three threes, and three twos. The fielding in every respect w as very good indeed. The wickets fell thus :—One for 8, two for 16, three for 31, four for 36, five for 41, six fur, 63, seven for 106, eight for 108, nine for 117, ten for 126. For All England, J. Rowbotham and J. Thewlis (two debu tants at this ground) commenced the batting, and played well against the fine bowling of Caffyn and Atkinnon. Rowbotham scored 15 and Thewlis 5. Daft was the third man, and was joined by Hayward, and some good batting ensued ; the latter, however, was cleverly caught by Wis den, after adding 15, meet, by a four, a three, a two, and singles. At this time (quarter to seven) a heavy shower of rain came on, and play was stopped for the day, the state of the score being as un UNITED W. Mortlock, c Hayward, b A _ Jackson U.

A terrible drama has been enacted in the neigh bourhood of Rothwell, near Leeds, involving (as is supposed) a case of child murder and the suicide of the mother, a young girl, aged 18, named Jane Taylor, the daughter of parents residing at Wake field, who bore a reputable character, and has f or some time past been a domestic servant in the house hold of Mr. John Wilson, cornfactor, Doncaster road, Wakefield. The young woman had an aunt named Hopton residing at Rothwell ; and last Su day being Rothwell feast , she and her brother, Joseph Taylor, went to visit th e aunt. There was nothing in the conduct of the young woman which attracted the attention of her relatives, except that she complained of " tic," and w . as a fromuarer whenceo an hour in the privy, on her returning . she took a shovel to cover up some. v omit, alleging that she had been sick.
