Mr. Adams showed the prisoner the five notes which I produce, and Mr. Gough showed hi m the endorsement at the back of the bill. Mr. Adams asked him if his name was Stokes how he came t o endorse the bill John Robinson. He asked him if his name was Robinson, hut I did not hear if he answered that question. He said he did not say his name was Robinson. Mr. Gough said ho did say so, and likewise signed John Robinson at the back of the bill. I then took him to the office of Mr. Marshall, the chief cashier, and ho was there asked to explain the matter. 11c did not give any explanation, and he was asked where Albert•street was, and he said he did not know, he was a stranger. The notes aro all five endorsed George Stokes, 11, Cheapside, and he was asked what 11, Cheapside,was, and he said it was an hotel. He was 'then given into custody. I searched a satchel which he had at the time, and in it I found ten Bank of 'England notes for £5O, 25 for £2O, 40 for £lO, and t 2o for £5. Mr, George Wolff Gough, cashier in the public drawing office at the Bank of England, said—About a quarter before 11 this morning the prisoner came to me and presented the bill produced for payment. I asked him what his name was, and he did not answer at the moment. I repeated the question, and he said, " Robinson." I asked him what his Christian name was, and he said " Sohn." I then gave him back the bill, which was not endorsed, end asked him to endorse it, and he wrote at the back of it, and he returned it to me endorsed as it now appears. I asked him what he would have for it, and he took from his pocket a small piece of paper with a list of the notes he wanted, which were the same as those found upon him. I passed it to the next cashier, who paid it with the notes produced, and the prisoner left the office. Shortly after the prisoner had left, Mr. Adams came to me to know if I had paid the five £lOO notes produced that morning. I referred to the book and ascer tained that they had been given with others in payment of the bill produced. I went with Mr. Adams to the issue department, and there saw the prisoner. I asked him if he had endorsed the bill in the name of John Robinson, and he denied that he had done so. I then left him with the officers. John Moss, detective, said—l was with Russell this morning, and was present when the prisoner was spoken to by Mr. Adams. The prisoner was afterwards taken to Mr. Marshall's office, and I asced him if he could give any explanation, and be %hen replied that it was too bad to be treated like Gat. I searched him, and found a pocket book omtaining £9O in Bank of England notes, and £2 As. lid. in money. Since he has been in custody at the Mansion-house he said he wished to tell the whon truth, and he then told me his name was not Geort e Stokes but George Wilkin, and that he did it, ma • the devil tempted him.

The Richmond Dispatch of Monday, the 4th, says : " A day of retribution is at hand for the outrages which have so long characterised tie conduct of the enemy in their prosecution of the wtio " Adjutant and Inspector-Ge.eraPs Office, Richmond, Aug. 1. " GENERAL ORDERS, No. 54. " 1. The following orders are pnblishea for the information and observance of all concerned :-_ " 2. Whereas by a General Order, dated Sn T 22, 1862, issued by the Secretary of War of the United States, under the orders of the United Statb i , iwsmmandars of that within the states of Virginia, South Carolina, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, and Arkansas, are directed to seize and use any property, real or personal, belonging to the inhabi- tants of this Confederacy, which may be necessary or convenient for their several commands, and no provision is made for any compensation to the owners of private property thus seized and appro priated by the military commanders of the enemy. " 3. And whereas by a General Order, No. 11, issued on the 23d of July, 1862, by Major General Pope, commanding the forces of the enemy in Northern Virginia, it is ordered that all commanders of any army corps, divisions, brigades, and detached commands, will proceed immediately to arrest all disloyal male citizens within their limits, or within their reach in the rear of their respective commands. Such as are willing to take the oath of allegiance to the United States, and will furnish sufficient security for its observance, shall be permitted to remain at their homes and pursue in good faith their accus tomed avocations. Those who refuse shall be con ducted south beyond the extreme pickets of this army, and be notified that if found again anywhere within our lines, or at any point in the rear, they will be considered as spies and subjected to the extreme rigour of military law. If any per son, having taken the oath as above specified, be found to have violated it, he shall be shot, and his property seized and applied to the public use ; "4. And whereas, by an order issued on the 13th July, 1862, by Brigadier General A. Steinwehr, Major William Steadman, a cavalry officer of his brigade, has been ordered to arrest five of the most prominent citizens of Page county, Va., to be held as hostages, and to suffer death in the event of any of the soldiers of the said Steinwehr being shot by bushwackers ; by which term is meant the citizens of the Confederacy who have taken up arms to de fend their houses and families ; " 6. And whereas it results from the above order that some of the military authorities of the United States, not content with the unjust and aggressive warfare hitherto waged with savage cruelty against an unoffending people, and exasperated by the failure of their efforts to subjugate them, have now determined to violate all the rules and usages of war, and to convert the hostilities hitherto waged against armed forces with a campaign of robbery and murder against unarmed citizens and peaceful tillers of the soil ; government, "6. And whereas, this bound by the highest obligations of duty to its citizens, is thus driven to the necessity of adopting such just measures of retribution and retaliation as shall seem adequate to repress and punish these barbarities; and whereas the orders above recited have only been published and made known to this government since the signature of a cartel for the exchange of prisoners of war, which cartel, in so f ar as it provides for an exchange of prisoners h e reafter captured, would never have been s igned or agreed to by this government if the in tention to change the war into a system of indis criminate murder and robbery had been made known to it ; and whereas, a just regard to humanity for bids that the repression of crime which this govern ment is thus compelled to enforce should be unne cessarily extended to retaliation on the enlisted men in the army of the United States, who may be the unwilling instruments of the savage cruelty of their commanders, so long as there is hope that the ex cesses of the enemy may be checked or prevented by retribution on the commissioned officers, who have the power to avoid guilty action by refusing ser vice under a government which seeks their aid in the perpetration of such infamous barbarities— " 7. Therefore, it is ordered that Major-General Pope, Brigadier-General Steinwehr, and all com missioned officers serving under their respective commands, be, and they are, hereby expressly and specially declared to be not entitled to be considered as soldiers, and therefore not entitled to the benefit of the cartel for the parole of future prisoners of war. " Ordered, further, that in the event of the cap ture of Major-General Pope or B rigadier-Gen eral Steinwehl, or of any co mm is s ioned officer serving V.

EASTERN COUNTIES. It appears that the directors of this company have de clared a dividend of 1 per cent. for the half-year ending the 30th of June last on the consolidated stock of the company. SOUTH-EASTERN. ."thalieeefas fthisreompant-,havor re,sutsred to_ mend the proprietors of the ensuing half-yearly meeting on the 28th inst. to order payment of a dividend of 12s. 9d. on each £3O stock, being at the rate of 4f per cent. per annum. The report of the directors of this company states that the gross receipts for the half-year ending July 31 amount to £568,695 (including £28,591, the receipts for the steam boat traffic), as compared with £562,730 for the corre sponding period of 1861, being an increase of £5,965, The ordinary working expenses during the half-year amount to £227,023; the rates, taxes, tolls, and Govern. ment duty to £34,012 ; and the working of the steam packet service to £14,988. After providing for the charges in respect of rents, interest, annuities, prefer ence dividends, &c., there remains a net balance of £159,642 available for dividend on the ordinary stock of the company, A dividend of 12s. 9d, per £3O stock, or at the rate of £4 ss. per cent. per annum will absorb £157,966, and leave a balance of £1,676 pay able on the 4th of September. The increase in the gross receipts for the half-year amount to £5,965, and the decrease in the expenditure of £642, showing an increase in the net receipts of £6,607 as compared with the cor responding period of last year, The increase in the num ber of passengers conveyed was 284,536, but there was a decrease in the receipts of £3,090. This is attributable principally to the competition of the new line opened be tween London and Dover. There has also been a decrease of £3,150 in the receipts derived from the conveyance of troops, over which the company has no control; but this, as well as the loss occasioned by the diversion of traffic at points where the competition referred to exists has been in a great measure neutralised by its augmentation at the in termediate stations. Among other items of increase may be mentioned £4,342 in parcels traffic, and £5,565 in steam boat traffic, the latter arising from the increased influx of continental passengers during the present season, the three new fast passenger boats placed upon the Folkestone and Boulogne route having enabled the company to conduct this traffic with every despatch and efficiency. The mer chandise traffic has been affected by the commmercial de pression which has prevailed during the past year, and ex hibits a decrease of £2,112, caused by the falling off in the receipts for coal and continental goods, while the local mer chandise receipts have, on the whole, been well maintained. There has been an increase of £4,383 in the charge for loco motive power and rolling stock, arising mainly from the in creased mileage run during the halfyear—viz., 41,963 miles, the increased cost of coal, and the renewals of worn-out vehicles of different kinds. The increase of £2,347 under this head has been principally occasioned by the renewals of per manent way, 20 miles of single line having been entirely re laid during the half year. A considerable expenditure has also been incurred in the necessary renewals of bridges and viaducts, formerly of timber, which have been re-con structed in permanent materials. The principal items of capital expenditure for the half year have been as follows : On account of the Charing-cross Railway, £208,000 ; of new rolling stock, £55,681; and of new steamboats, £13,505. The capital account shows that £12,862,850 had been ex pended to the :31st July, including £298,198 expended dur ing the past half year. WHITEHAVEN, CLEATOR, AND EGREMONT. The dividend for the past half year on the share capital of this company will be at the rate of 10 per cent. per annum, leaving a balance of £1,356. SIIREWSBURY AND lIEREFORD. Itfs' appears the dividend on this com p an y' s or di nary s t oc k will be 3 per cent, for the past half year, leaving a balance of £914. CHESTER AND HOLYHEAD. Yesterday the half-yearly general meeting of the pro prietors was held at the Euston terminus—Mr. R. Moon in the chair. The report stated that there was a balance on revenue account of £66,000, and that the total expenditure on capi tal account, up to the present period, was £1,453,000. The meeting having been made special, the CHAIRMAN moved that under the powers guaranteed by the London and North-Western Capital Act, 1862, authorising the Cheater and Holyhead to create and issue one uniform stock in substitution for several descriptions of stock now exist ing, £2,468,000 new capital be created, bearing a preference dividend at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum, to be guaran teed by the London and North Western Company, and to be " Chester and Holyhead (London and North Western) guaranteed 5 per cent. stock," such stock to be, with the consent of the London and North Western, applied exclu sively in substitution for surrendered stock or shares of the Chester and Holyhead Company in the following propor tions—namely, for and in lieu of every £lOO stock of the Chester and Holyhead Railway entitled to a dividend at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum, there shall be issued the said guaranteed stock to the amount of £lOl for and in lieu of every £lOO of stock, the Chester and Holyhead to be entitled to a dividend at the rate of £5 10s. per cent. per annum in respect of guaranteed stock of £110; and for and in lieu of every £lOO of ordinary stock of Chester and Holy. head there shall be issued, after the Ist of March, 1863, guaranteed stock to the amount of £5O. The motion was agreed to. LLYNVI VALLEY. Yesterday the half-yearly general meeting of the proprie tors was held at the Great Western Hotel, Paddington; Mr. A. Macgregor in the chair. Resolutions declaring a dividend of 5 per cent. upon the preference, and 4 per cent. upon the ordinary, stock of the company, and authorising the directors to raise a further sum of £40,000 , were agreed to. Thanks having been given to the chairman and directors the meeting separated. MARYPORT AND CARLISLE. The half-yearly meeting of this company was held at Maryport on Wednesday. Mr, Hartley presided. The report was adopted. The CHAIRMAN stated that the new act authorised them to raise £75,000, and it was proposed to issue new shares to the ordinary shareholders pre rata. The coalfield of Blen nerhasset had been tried, and coal was proved to the extent of 200 acres. Resolutions were passed authorising the directors to issue the shares, offering them in the first place to the ordinary and preference shareholders of the company pro rata, and the meeting separated.

The report of the directors recommends a dividend at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum on the preference shares to the 30th June last, amounting, less income-tax, to £1,203, leaving £1,499 for the next account. The capital account shows a total expenditure of £ 3 91,908, leaving a balance of £727. BRADFORD, WAKEFIELD, AND LEEDS.

STOCKPORT, DISLEY, AND WHALEY-BRIDGE. The report of the directors states that the net balance of revenue.for the half-year is £1,104, out of which the direc tors recommend the payment of a dividend at the rate of 41 per cent p er annum on the preference capital, and a dividend on th e ordinary share capital at the rate of £1 7s. 6d. per cent. per annum, which would require £1,040, leaving a balance of £64. qD-K warn '— MID-KENT (BROMLEY TO ST.

COUNTY OP SussEx.—This match at the Brunswick (Box's) Ground, near Brighton, ran into a third day (Wednesday), and though T. Hearne and Mr. R. D. Walker struggled well to place their side in as good a position as possible, the former scoring 134 and the latter 37, the total of the M.C.C. innings closed for 216, which left Sussex 72 to get to win, and they succeeded in doing so with five wickets to go down. During the match some fine hitting was displayed on both sides. ONE ARM v. ONE LEG.—It is ten years ago since wo chronicled a match of this kind, which took place (as now), on the Surrey Ground, Bennington-oval. The game com menced yesterday, and as the announcement bill said, " Cricket under difficulties, by the Veterans of England," it was truly so. Legitimate cricket is generally well patronised, but this, though not in the category, was espe cially so, some three or four thousand spectators being pre sent to witness what may be termed in modern phraseology, a " sensation match." The Veterans of England com prise those who have served their country, and are now pensioners in Greenwich College, but the sides selected to play were minus a leg or arm. The One Leg side went in first, and to describe the ludicrous manner in which they made their runs would be impossible, but the amusement they caused was great ; and those of the One Arm in the field—fancy their trying to stop a ball with their hats, or dropping themselves so as to stop it bodily, the shouts of the spectators in the meanwhile urging the batsmen to " run it out," and the scene may be completed by imagina tion. The score of the One Leg side reached 91, and two or three of them seemed as if they had used a bat before. On the side of the One Arm 73 was scored. The match will be continued this morning. FORGERY ON THE BANK OF ENGLAND. A respectably-dressed genteel-looking young man , 20 years of age, who at first gave his name as G BO . Samuel Stokes, a clerk, residing at Arbitas-hint Galway, but afterwards stated that his real name was George Wilkin, was placed at the bar of the Mansion-house ye3terday, before Mr. Alderman Challis, locum tenens for the Lord Mayor, charged with forging and uttering a forged endorsement to a bill of exchange for £2,000, with intent to defraud the governor and company of the Bank of England. George Russell, detective officer, was on duty this morning with Sergeant Moss at the Bank of England. In consequence of information which I received I waited in the hall, and there saw the prisoner with Mr. Adams, who held in his hand five £lOO notes, which I produce. They are cancelled. Another gentleman named Gough was there like wise, and he held in his hand the bill of exchange which I produce, drawn on the Bank of Ireland for £2,000. It is dated Aug. 20, 1862, and made pay able to the order of John Robinson, Esq., addressed to the cashier of the Bank of England, and signed Wm.

(Signed) ca S. COO - PET, A. A The following is the letter of Jeff. Davis to Gen. Lee, instructing him to communicate the facts in the above order to the Commander-in-Chief of the United States armies : "Sir,--.On the 23d o f th i s mont h a car t e l f or a "Richmond, Va., July 31, 1862. general exchange of prisoners o'f war was signed between Major-General D. 11. Hill, in behalf of the Confederate States, and Major-General J. A. Dix in behalf of the United States. By the terms of that cartel it is stipulated that all prisoners of war hereafter taken shall be discharged on parole till exchanged. Scarcely had that cartel been signed when the military authorities of the United States commenced a practice of changing the character of the war from such as becomes civilised nations into a campaign of indiscriminate robbery and murder. The general order issued by the Secretary of War of the United States in the city of Washington, on the very day that the cartel was signed in Vir ginia, directs military commanders of the United States to take the private property of our people for the convenience and use of their armies, with. out compensation. " The general order issued by Major-General Pope on July 23, the day after the signing of the cartel, directs the murder of our peaceful inhabi tants as spies if found quietly tilling the farms in his rear, even outside of his lines ; and one of his brigadier -generals, Steinwehr, has seized upon innocent and peaceful inhabitants to be held as hostages, to the end that they may be murdered in cold blood if any of his soldiers are killed by some unknown persons whom he designates as " Bush whackers." Under this state of facts this govern ment has issued the inclosed general order, recog nising General Pope and his commanding officers to be in the position which they have chosen for themselves—that of robbers and murderers, and not that of public enemies, entitled if captured to be considered as prisoners of war. %V 0 find our selves driven by our enemies by steady progress to ward a practice which we abhor, and which w e are vainly struggling to avoid. Some of the military authorities of the United States seem to suppose that better success will attend a savage war, in which no quarter is to be given, and no age or sex to be spared, than has hitherto been secured by such hostilities as are alone recognised to be lawful by civilised men in modern times. " For the present we renounce our right of re taliation on the innocent, and shall continue to treat the private enlisted soldiers of General Pope's army as prisoners of war ; but if after notice to the Government at Washington of our continuing re pressive measures to the punishment only of com missioned officers, who are willing participants in these crimes, the savage practices are continued, we shall reluctantly be forced to the last resort of ac cepting the war on the terms chosen byour foes, until the outraged voice of a common humanity forces a respect for the recognised rules of war. While these facts would justify our refusal to exercise the generous cartel by which we have consented to liberate an excess of thousands of prisoners held by as beyond the number held by the enemy, a sacred regard to plighted faith, shrinking from the mere semblance of breaking a promise, prevents our re sort to this extremity. "Nor do we desire to extend to any other forces of the enemy the punishment meted above by Gene ral Pope and such commissioned officers as chose to participate in his infamous orders. " You are therefore instructed to ommunicate to the commander-in-chief of the armies of the United States the contents of this letter and a copy xanduacu gruunii oraer, mat lie may be notified of our intention not to consider any officers hereafter captured from General Pope's army as prisoners of war. " Very respectfully yours, &c., "JEFF. DAVIS. " General R. E. Lee, commanding, &c.

NASHVIL,E, THURSDAY, August 7, 1862. The city is in a p3rfect uproar of excitement over the details of the death of the brave General M'Cook, of Ohio. His remains arrived in town to-night, and are new lying at the Commercial Hotel. On Tuesday last General Robert M'Cook, who was at the time very 3ick, was in an ambulance hiuin t.eowkTa s g ue ril las. ' The e conditi onrebe near Salem, Alabama. on his way to his brigade. The ambulance was travelling over the usual mili tary road, and, about ten o'clock in the morning, it arrived at a plantation where there was abundance of water. After refrealing themselves they passed on with the sick general. Intelligence of his where abouts and condition WES quickly spread, it is sup posed, the er driverbefore the dis ambulance env e that h he d e W p proceeded eede d pursuedt h three impossiblelleatdo leader prohibitedoi think ordered ae f dn flight, and General stop, the assassins at the time aur yt r h o idea of rescuing ambulancee nndingit. Th to e vehicle was then upset and the siek officer turned into the road. While on his knees, helpless, sick, and pleading for quarter, he was fired at by a ruffian and shot through the side. The wound was fatal—General *Cook surviving it but a few hours. He bore his sufferings heroically, and to the last manifested an undaunted spirit. His last words were:—Tell Aleck (alluding to his brother, Gene ral Alexander M'Dowel M'Cook) and the rest that I have tried to live like a man and do my duty.. When the news of the murder became known among the camps, the excitement was intense. The 9th Ohio, M'Cook's own regiment, on learning of the assassination, marched back to the scene of the occurrence, burned every house in the neighbour hood, and laid waste the lands. Several men who were implicated in the murder, were taken out and hung to trees by the infuriated soldiery. The guerilla feeling throughout the state is in creasing rapidly, and bands of these robbers are forming in every hamlet. The train I came down in from Battle Creek was fired into at different points. Fortunately, no damage was done to the persons of any of the passengers. The train f or Columbia to-day was fired into by guerilla parties at various points on the road, and one man was killed and 13 wounded. Immediately, prompt and decisive action should be taken in the matter. 0f the Companies gn ev guerillas for Amazement and r evenge are pic- inint spat g here to assist in th e capture ec c i h ty.
