MONEY MARKF,T. CITY NEWS-_YESTERDAY. At a special meeting to-day of the Thames and Mersey Marine Insurance Company it was unani mously resolved that the undertaking shall be re gistered forthwith under the Limited Liability Act. The committee of the Stock Exchange have this day Appointed Monday, the 27th October, a special settling day in the shares of the Bank of Queens land (Limited). A special meeting of the New Brunswick and Canada Railway and Land Company is called for the 30th inst., for the purpose of amending a reso lution passed at the last general meeting, and having reference to financial arrangements for meeting the company's liabilities. A special meeting of the London and Mediterra nean Steam Company will be held on the 30th inst., to consider the present condition of the machinery on board the company's vessel% and the propriety of increasing their number. The half-yearly meeting of the Sambre and Meuse Railway Company is convened for the 31st inst. in London, and will be made special, to determine upon the means of repayment of the 5 per cent. bonds falling due Ist July, 1863, and the 51 per cent. bonds falling due Ist July, 1864, by the issue of other bonds, with a sinking fund. The remittances of specie to Bombay for cotton continue to incree.se in magnitude, and the steamer on Monday will take out £500,000 from London and £250,000 from Marseilles, also on English account. The private telegrams from New York to-day quote the rate of exchange at 141. The premium on gold being 271, a good profit is still shown on the exportation of specie, and, as the grain ship ments will henceforth diminish, this state of affAirs must be expected to increase.

The Bank of England directors, at their usual weekly meeting to-day, have not made any alteration in the minimum rate of discount. The Money Market to-day has been rather quiet, and operations were partially suspended until the result of the Bank meeting became known. It was not imagin-d that any alteration in the minimum would take place, but a feeling of caution was nevertheless occasioned by the increased firmness recently noticed in monetary circles, and the de cline which has taken place in the storik of bullion.

SUING A PRISONER IN NEIVGATE FOR DEBT.-.SINGULAR CASE.-FRASER A ND ANOTHER V. O'BRIEN.--BISHOP V. THE SAME. - EASTLED V THE SMIE. In the first of these cases plaintiffs are attorneys who sought to recover a bill of costs, and defendant was de scribed of " Newgate, Prisoner." In the second case Mr. Bishop, well known of Bond street, is the plaintiff, for money expended on defendant's behalf, and in the third case Mr. Eastled sought to recover for some wine. Mr. Bramwell, for the defendant, did not dispute the cases upon their merits, but at theltime the defendant was served with these writs he was prisoner in Newgate. His Honour—l have jurisdiction over Newgate. Mr. Fraser --The defendant was served in Newgate be cause we could not get at him anywhere else. Mr. Bramwell—Newgate cannot be said to be his resi dence, nor his place, neither can he attend to the summons when served. It has been held that a person cannot be served in a publichouse. Mr. Fraser —The defendant was sentenced to three months' imprisonment for a very gross libel on Messrs. Lewis, and as we could not get his address we waited till we caught him in Newgate. Mr. Bramwell—l must press the point that a prisoner confined in gaol for an offence cannot be served with process in this way. His Honour held that this Court had jurisdiction over Newgate, and quoted the case of Massey and Burton, in which the Lord Chief Baron had laid down that, when a man stayed at an hotel one night, the service was efficient. Mr. Bramwell —But here is a man serving his sentence. His Honour —.I must hold that there is a good service, and find for the plaintiff, with costs. LORD MAYOR'S COURT. (Before the Recorder and a Common Jury.) A COUNTESS IN COURT . - LAMTON Y. FOX (COUNTESS DI 111 i 17* 17 611 AIRLA). This was an attachment against the garnisher Fox, who was alleged to h o ld i n hi s hand certain moneys belonging to the Countess di Airla, who was indebted to the plaintiff in the sum of £69 odd. The plaintiff's claim arose out of services rendered to the Countess as agent in this country, and it was stated that the garnishee held some moneys belonging to her. This money was attached by the plaintiff, and as the Countess disputed the claim, notice of defence was given and counsel instructed; but to-day, during the hearing of another cause, the parties agreed to a verdict of £lB, which was entered accordingly. CA7IIERINE WILSON. THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 23, 1862. " CATHERINE WILSON." SHIPPING---THIS DAY. The following is a verbatim copy of a letter writ ten by this extraordinary woman since her con demnation. It is addressed to a relative residing at Moultan, near Spalding. The handwriting is neat and good, but common-place, possessing no peculiarity ; it would appear to be a very difficult hand to swear to. There are only three words spelt incorrectly, and three or four slight grammatical errors. With these exceptions, it might be taken for the letter of an educated person : " Gaol at Newgate, 6th October, 1862. " Dear Uncle and Aunt,--- - With great pain I received your letter, and with greater pain I sit down to answer it; for it recalls to my mind past scenes too painful to dwell upon. "My dear friends—all of you—l must decline your very kind offer of visiting me. I could not bear an interview ; it would be too painful for ui all. You must think of me as you last saw me ; that is the best for you to do. Twelve months ago who could have thought of my being here ? Six months to-day I have been in prison. How much better it was for me when I feared God and thought of pleasing Him more than man I Although innocent of the dreadful crime with which I am charged, lam a great sinner, and I have lived in wickedness and sin. Though I could deceive the world, I could not deceive the Almighty. May he be more merciful to me than man has been is my earnest prayer. During my imprisonment I have received many letters and seen many friends : one lady from Boston has visited me, and written to me since my condemnation, but I got a lady to answer it for me. " I felt that I would answer this to you myself, and I dare say it is the last letter I shall write; at least I think so. lam in ill health, and cannot bear much. I do not receive visits from any one now. I have this morning seen my solicitor ; he is a very kind gentleman ; I have received great kindness from him and his wife. I felt the interview very painfully this morning. I have received a letter from a gentleman in Lincoln, wishing for an interview, which I declined. I cannot see any one excepting the religious ladies who visit the prison. " My time upon earth is very short. I shall be executed on the morning of the 20th inst., at eight o'clock is the morning, I suppose. May eod in His mercy receive my soul i Jesus is a present help in the time of trouble; on Him I cast my burden. It matters little how the body dies ; may I he found right before the judgment-seat of God. I care not what man thinks of me; it avails nothing now to me. "My dear relations—all of you—l take it as a great kindness you sending me this letter. You once thought much of me. Tbis letter has cost me many tears. I have often thought of you all And now, dear friends, I give you my dying love. Farewell. " From your affectionate relative, LONDON, Oct. 23.—Wind this day at noon—Sonth- Westerly ; heavy squalls. (BY MAGNETIC TELEGRAPH.) GRAVESEND, Thursday Morning, Arrived—Rhine, steamer, from Boulogne; Lord J. Rus sell, steamer, from Dunkirk. Sailed—Essex, for Melbourne. DEAL, Thursday Morning. Passed—Susanna, from Havannah, for Chatham ; Al mond, from Batavia, for Amsterdam. Anchored off Dungeness—Pocahontas, from London for Boston. HEALTH OF GARIBALDI.- —Very alarming rnmouN were current the whole of yesterday about the health of Garibaldi. It appears that a telegram was received this morning by an official personage in Paris from an agent at Varignano, to the effect that the General's condition was serious enough to justify the greatest uneasiness. Whether the agent in question has reported truly I cannot say ; but that the despatch has been received is, 1 have reason to be lieve, certain.—Letterfrom Paris. THE INTERNATIONAL EXIITINTION.—Yesterday the attendance was low for a day so near the time of closing, though, considering the almost tempestuous state of the weather, it was much higher than could have been antici pated. The total up to five o'clock was 37,427, of which 3,525 were by season tickets, 751 by shilling day-tickets, and 33,151 by payments at the doors. MOVEMENTS OF THE CONFEDERATE STEAMER ALABAMA.—Some particulars in addition to those pub lished yesterday with reference to the movements and ope rations of the Confederate war steamer Alabama, or " 290," have since transpired. The steamer is described as being armed with six heavy guns amidships, a pivot gun on the bow, and another astern. The Emily Farnum, the vessel captured and afterwards released as a cartel, has brought to Liverpool a report of the capture and destruction of the American whaling barqne Elisha Dunbar, of New Bedford. The account given by Captain David R. Gifford, of that vessel is as follows :—" Sept. 18, 1862.—Stron4 gales and rainy from the southward. At p.m., after running about four hours, was brought to by a shot across uur bow from the Alabama, and was ordered on board the steamer with my papers. Capt. Semmes took them, and allowed me a small trunk and each of my officers and craw a bag of cloth ing. We were then put in irons and placed in the waist of the ship, where we remained exposed to the weather. wet through and cold. The ship was then set on fire. At 8 p.m. the first lieutenant had a sail spread over us, and put some planks and handspikes on the deck, upon which we spread the few mattresses we saved, and there remained for three days, with the sea breaking over us and rain running through our tent. The weather then moderated, and we dried our clothes. On board the steamer we found Capt. Tilton, of the American whaling bark Virginia, his offi cers and crew. The Alabama had destroyed his vessel the day before. They fared the same as ourselves. Oct. 3. Was released, and put on board the ship Emily Farnum, Capt. Simes, from New York for Liverpool ; and on the 6th was transferred to the brig Golden League, of Thomaston, for New York." Before the Emily Farnum had lost sight of the Alabama, the Brilliant, Captain Hagar, twenty-four days out from New York, for Lon• don, with 30,000 bushels of wheat and large quantities of butter, lard, ecc., was set fire to, and she continued to burn all night. Captain Semmes, of the Alabama, is reported to have made particular inquiries with reference to the large American clipper ship Dreadnought, Captain Samuels, bound from Liverpool for New York, which he alleged has on board arms and munitions of war for the Federal Gcvernment. The only bills of lading on board the Emily Farnum, certificated by the British Consul, were those for lard and tallow, from Messrs. Troost, Schroder, and Co., of New York, who fortunately had taken that pre caution. HEROIC RESCUE.—Out shipping intelligence of Tuesday, Oct. 21, contained the brief announcement from Newhaven that the Wesleyan, of Goole, from Portland to London, went down off Newhaven, " crew saved." Beneath these few words lies the record of as gallant an action as was ever performed in the annals of the sea. Nr. Green, the master of the Wesleyan, states that he left Portland on Thursday about 3 o'clock, and early on Friday morning experienced very heavy weather, in consequence of which she sprang a leak. On board were his wife and six children. With his crew, consisting of two men, he worked incessantly at the pumps, but the water continued to gain on them. In the afternoon she was observed by the crew of the Wave, of Colchester, Dorman master, about five miles to the westward, and nine miles S.E. of Newhaven. Perceiving that she was disabled, the Wave ran as near the Wesleyan as she could venture, and, finally, in the face of a sea running mountains high, Dorman, the master of the Wave, leaving two men on board his own vessel, launched his own boat, quite a cockle-shell compa ratively speaking, and with three other brave fellows made for the Wesleyan. The boat was nearly swamped several times, but at last they managed to get on board. Here a truly heartrending scene awaited them. The bulwark, were all gone, the boat was stove in, and the sea was making a clear sweep over them. The three men were utterly exhausted, and the poor woman and her six children were sitting huddled together below, in nearly three feet of water, which was pouring in from the deck. The youngest child was only six months old, and the cries of the poor little creatures were so pitious as to unnerve the strongest man. Then came the difficult task of getting Mrs. Green and the little ones on board the Wave, and this was accomplished, although the boat was half full of water. Dorman and his men, after working at the pumps for three quarters of an hour without any diminution of the water in the hold, abandoned her, and the crew were taken on board the Wave. In less than . five minutes the Wesleyan sank with everything belonging to the poor creatures except the scanty clothes they stood upright in. The Wave beat up into Newhaven harbour, and landed the crew and family thus narrowly saved from death.

THE DANGER OF VISITING THE HATNIABILET.—The three young men named George Bishop, Samuel Tarrant, and Henry Davey—all of respectable appearance and re spectably connected—charged with attempting to pick pockets in the Haymarket, were again brought up. Mr. Edward Lewis, of Great Marlborough -street, ap peared for the defence. The gaoler of the court said the accused were not known. A person from Messrs. Waterlow's, City, said Bavey had been au apprentice for two years, and was a well-con ducted lad, and bore a good character. }laving heard of his being charged with picking pockets, he made inquiries, and found he bore a good character. Evidence of Tarrant's good character having been given by a peraon in the employ of Mr. Newman, of Watling - street, Mr. Knox asked if anything was known of the sailor ;, Bishop). r. Cornfield, of the firm of Newman and Cornfield, said he wished to bear testimony also to Tarrant's good cha racter. He was in the habit of fetching money from the banker's and taking charge of the warehouse. A lodging-house keeper said he knew Bishop as the steward of a vessel which was to sail to-day. He believed him to be a man of good character. Mr. Knox said he should have no hesitation in dis charging the prisoners after the evidence of character he had heard. It was, however, an extraordinary case, as the constable (Waterson, 144 U) had spoken of three attempts. But he believed the constable had made a mistake in what he said he had seen. They left the court without the slightest imputation on their character, and without there being any pretence for saying that they were it. the Hay market for the purpose of picking pockets. He would, how ever, advise them to keep from the Haymarket. The accused, whose characters are evidently free from reproach, and who stated that it was their first visit to the Haymarket, were then discharged, and left the court with their friends. SOU THWARK. A FRENCHMAN IN TROUBLE.—Charles Brown, who stated that he was a Frenchman, and spoke English imper fectly, was charged with stealing a pair of boots, value 405., the property of Mr. Rogers, bootmaker, Newington-cause way, The prosecutor said that the prisoner came to his shop last evening stating that he wanted to purchase some boots. While he was looking at some articles that were shown him, he saw him put the boots in qu es ti on un d er hi s coat . H e immediately stopped the prisoner as he was about leaving the shop, and saw tho boots protruding from his coat pocket. The prisoner entreated him for God's sake not to detain him, but he gave him into charge. The prisoner in reply to the magistrate said that he was drunk at the time, and that he was stopping at the " Le Chevae" coffee shop, Whitechspel. He had just come from America, and was about returning to Paris. The prosecutor said that two other persons entered the shop with the prisoner at the time he stole the boots, but the latter denied any knowledge of these parties. The prisoner preferred having the case disposed of sum marily, instead of being sent to the sessions, and was sen tenced to six weeks' hard labour. ASSAULT ON THE POLICE.--Charles Harris and Esther Crane were charged with assaulting the police under the following circumstances : Burch, 237 M, said that last night, about 12 o'clock, he was on duty in Kent-street, and saw the prisoners and several other persons outside a public huuse. He inquired of the male prisoner what he was doing there, to which he returned an offensive reply, after which he and the other prisoner went in the direction of St. George's, New Town, and knowing them to be thieves he followed them. The male prisoner threw a stone at him, and the female prisoner flung a brick at his head, after which they both assaulted him. This evidence was confirmed by another constable, but the prisoners said that they had oßly acted in self-defence, and that the first witness had struck them before they threw anything at him. The magistrate sentenced the male prisoner to one month's imprisonment, and the female to pay a fine of 10s., or in default to seven days' imprisonment. THAMES. CAUTION TO HIGHWAY THIEVES. — Michael Lacey, a well-known thief, was brought before Mr. Selfe, charged with assaulting and robbing a man unknown of his watch. Frederick Arms, a German, said he was a carpenter in the Royal Navy, and he had been lately paid off from one of her Majesty's ships. Yesterday evening he saw the pri soner and three others attack a sailor, who was intoxi cated, in Ratcliff-highway, and take his watch from him The four thieves were looking at the watch in front of the Prussian Eagle public-house, and were passing it from one to the other, when he raised an alarm, the police came up and the four thieves absconded. The prisoner was one of them. Mr. Selle—Where is the man who was assaulted and robbed ? A policeman replied that he could not be found, but if the prisoner was remanded he should most probably be able to find him. Three seamen were robbed of their watches yesterday evening in Ratcliffe-highway and Shad well High-street, Those places where seamen congregated were the resort of most infamous thieves and prostitutes. Mr. Selte said he committed a man for trial on Saturday for stealing a watch from a seaman in High-street, Shad well, and he was tried at the Middlesex Sesbions on Mon day, convicted, and sentenced to three years' penal servi tude, and he knew the judges would visit with severity all cases of this description. The inspectors of police in attendance said many thieves had been sentenced to four and five years' penal servitude for stealing watches in the public streets. Mr. Selfe remanded the prisoner for a week. M. FOULD AT MARSEILLES.—" M. Fould," says the Semaphore of Marseilles, " during his short stay in our city, went ever all the quays, and visited our maritime esta • blishments, and was thus able to form an idea of the im.• provemeuts of which the city stands in need. He promised to prolong by half an hour the time for stock busi - ness at the Bourse, and also to have a branch telegraph-office established there.

During the day 30 to Ito a " pony" was booked about Queen of Trumps, and 30 to 1 was wanted about Conqueror; but, towards the close, they both became friendless, 100 to 3 being offered against the former, and 40 to 1 the latter.

The chief feature in the business done was the advance of Aurelian to 16 to 1, at which price the layers fought shy, and refused to go on, al , hough as much as 25 to 1 could have been had to money against him earlier on in the day. Limosina, Umpire, Alchymist, and Conqueror retrograded several points on their afternoon's quotations.

The continuance of wet overnight caused the sticky ground in many places to form a regular quagmire, and the running ground very much resembled a marsh. Still owners of horses supported the exertions of the Gloucester committee, which resulted, notwith standing the deplorable condition of the ground, in reepectable fields contesting the half•dozen items, the first of which was fixed for one o'clock, and the last at four. The only drawback to the meeting, tarring the unpropitious weather, was the absurd weights imposed for the Hurdle Race, the lightness of which really appeared as though the framers of the handi cap were offering a premium for accidents. Below will be found a detailed account of the day's sprit:— The Corporation Handicap Plate of 30 sovs, added to a Sweepstakes of 5 soya each, 1 soy ft, for horses of all ages. Winners extra.

Colonel Crockett, in company with Jack-in-the-Box and Yorkshire Miss, v ent away in front, Grey Hen colt being last. After proceeding half the distance Yorkshire Miss was a couple of lengths in the rear of the leading couple, the running being still carried on by Colonel Crockett. Half a dozen lengths behind Yorkshire Miss followea Shepherdess, and at an interval of a couple of lengths came Rockley, whilst the Grey Hen colt was at least twelve lengths from the front division. Reaching the final tun, into the straight, Jack-in-the-Box was beaten, and could not keep up with Col. Crockett and Yorkshire Miss, who commenced racing in earnest ere they reached the distance. Jemmy Grimahaw, however, failed to reach Col. Crockett, who won by half a length; Shepherdess, beaten off, was third, and the others straggled in at long intervals.

Fitz Ruyter, the Pearl colt, and Wave jumped away slightly in advance of His Excellency, who headed the lot, at the tail end of which, completely out-paced, followed Jack o'Newbury. When half the distance had been run His Excellency, in making the turn, rushed to the front, at tended by Jesuista and the Pearl colt, between which three the race lay at this early period. Approaching the last turn Jesuista (next the rails) obtained the lead, and at the dis tance was joined by the Pearl colt and His Excellency. Half way u p M r.

After going a dozen strides Wild Chieftain rushed to the front, and took the first hurdle slightly in advance or Knuston, who was followed by Jacob, The Miller, and Pot Pourri in the order mimed, Immediately they had passed the fi Stand linuston took the lead, and on the opposite side of the course, running out of the track, was virtually out of the race. 'Wild Chieftain thereupon took his companions on the right side of the poA, but almost immediately of r wards fell, and tor some mina. es t tie b .y lay motionless upon the ground. Subsequently, however, he got up and walked back to the weighing room, his fall resulting merely in i severe shaking. Wild Chieftain's actions, when riderless, fully verified his nomenclature, but his wild freaks were soon stopped. After the above contretemps, Knuston, though really out of the race, continued with the lead, fol lowed by The Miller, Jacob, and Pot Pourri, until entering the straight the second time, where he was evidently dis tressed. On his retirement Jacob went ta-the front, and The Miller, after clearing the hurdle opposite the Stand,was in difficulties, and dropped into the rear. At this point iinuston pulled up, and Jacob continued a short distance in front of Pot Pourri, the latter all the while waiting on the leader. In almost the same place where Wild Chieftain came to grief did the Miller fall, and unfortunately (though Sly remounted his horse) it was afterwards found he had dislocated his collar bone. Pot Pourri headed Jacob a quar ter of a mile from the finish, and cantered in 30 lengths in front of Jacob, who walked in.

Capt. Knight, Vesper, and the Hurry Scurry filly sh owe d in advance, but the favourite almost instantly, being in difficulties, dropped into the rear, and the Eryx colt took third place. A struggle at once commenced with Captain Knight, Vesper, and the Eryx colt, and before reaching a quarter of a mile from the finish, the former was beaten. At the distance the Eryx colt challenged Vesper, and for a few strides the pair seemed to stick in the mud, and the re sult was for a moment in doubt. The light weight, how ever, soon had the best of it, and coming away, won in a canter by six lengths, Captain Knight cantered in some distance behind the first pair. The winner was bought by Mr. Rossitor for 55 guineas. TEE CLOSE OF 7HE EXHIBITION. - - The tide of success seems to have fairly set in at South Kensington. Th e l ast days of the International Exhibi bition give good promise of being as brilliantly successful as those of the Crystal Palace in 1851; and there is little doubt that the total number of visitors to the 1b62 Exhibi tion will prove to be even greater than that of eleven years ago. Up to Saturday last, about five millions and a half, in round numbers, had been registered as entering the building; and there are two weeks still to come, during which a large muster may be confidently anticipated. The last week of the Crystal Palace drew upwards of half a mil lion of visitors ; if twelve days in 1862 are only as success ful as six in 1851, the Exhibition will, in spite of a hundred adverse circumstances, for which fair allowance has not always been made, have actually received a greater number of persons within its walls than entered those of its precur sor. We dwell upon the fact, as being in itself a strong argument in favour of such decennial Exhibitions. That the world may " take stock" from time to time is undeni ably desirable; and it is only by such collections as the pre sent that this object can be achieved. The six millions of visitors upon whom it is now quite fair to calculate, should be amply sufficient to make such an enterprise perfectly safe in a merely commercial point of view. What the Exhibition is worth in other respects, and when looked at in a higher spirit, it would be difficult to estimate.. , lard indeed would be the task of the writer who should at tempt an exact appreciation of its influences for good. tie would have to point not merely to the fact that mil lions have received information and amusement, but also to the probability—a probability so strong as almost to amount to a certainty—that fresh inventions will prove to have been originated by suggestions and ideas received in. the Exhibition. The thoughtful and observant visitor, who has marked with what intensity of expression, with what closely-knitted brows, and with what keen and eager eyes, many artisans have been gazing at the machinery in the Westery Annexe, will hardly doubt that many an in genious brain has already conceived ideas after such an in spection,which will yet lead to result s p rac ti cally beneficial tousall. A few figures may not be uninteresting at this moment. Reckoning from Monday, 20th October, we find that (in cluding that day itself) there now remains but eight days at a shilling, and four at half-a-crown. The returns for the corresponding period of 1851 are before us. We find that during the last eight shilling days the attendance amounted to 679,560, and that the four half-crown days brought in 163,665 visitors ; the largest number on one of these high priced da3s being 53,061, and the greatest on shilling days; being 109,915. Something like this may be looked for in the short time now remaining; and as it is quite clear that there will be a good deal of overcrowding towards its close, we cannot too earnestly impress upon the minds of all that if they desire their visit to be comfortable, it should be immediate. Railway facilities for access to the metro polis were never so great as at present, and we cannot refrain from observing that had there been similar access to the Exhibition itself, the numbers entering it—although as the master stands, far superior to those at the Paris Ex position, and almost certain to surpass those of 1851— would have been enormously increased. Much of the suc cess which has attended the Crystal Palace must undoubt edly be attributed to the fact that it has two railways run ning into it under cover, and that the intending visiters had therefore no trouble beyond that of paying his fare. Even this is found not to suffice, and a third line of railway com munication to Sydenham will, in less than two years from. the present time, give direct access to the Palace from alt central parts of London. That five millions and a half persons should, even with such imperfect means of convey ance as have existed, have visited the building at South Kensington, is a marvellous testimony to the interest of its contents; and we can only repeat that all who have not as yet done so, should, whilst there is pet time; go at once.

The total supply of beasts in to-•day's market was very moderate, both as to number and quality. Nearly all breeds commanded steady sale, at an advance in the quota tions realised on Monday of 2d per 81bs. The best Scots, &c., sold at 4s 10d per 81bs. With sheep we were rather scantily supplied, and the mutton trade was very firm at extreme currencies —the best Downs and half-breda having sold at 6s 8d per Blbs. Calves were in short supply, and active request at 4d per 81bs more money. The rates ruled from 4s 2d to 5s 4d per 81bs.
