CITY NEWS--YESTERDAY. The demand for money continues brisk, and the rates in the open market show a tendency to ap proximate to those of the Bank, where business to day was to a fair fair extent. At Paris to-day the Three per Cent. Rentes opened at 68.75, and closed at 68.60 for money, and 68.65 for the account, showing a fresh fall of about per cent, since Saturday afternoon. The dividend on Caledonian Railway stock was officially announced to day at the rate of Eve per cent• per annum, being the same as that declared for the corresponding period of 1861. The stock has not been affected in price. In connection with the rise in Spanish Certifi Cates to-day a change in the Madrid cabinet was hinted at by rumour. The fortnigh6y settlement in shares and foreign stooks will commence on Wednesday and terminate on Friday. There were no transactions in bullion at the Bank today. In consequence of the revived demand for money for banking purposes, Exchequer-bills were sold to day at 20s. to 23s.—a decline of 2s. The Athenian has brought £11,200 in specie from Africa. The Mexican dollars by the last packet were sold to-day at 6 l id. The traffic receipts of the Dutch Rhenish Rail- Way for the fortnight ending July 15, 1862, amounted to £9,720 ss. 91d., and for the corres- Ponding period of last year to £9,602 ss. 11d., showing an increase of £ll7 19s. 100. in favour cf the present year. CITY NEWS---THIS DAY . TWELVE O'CLOCK. • Business in the Foreign and Colonial Produce 11'Iarkets during the last few days has been rather inactive. Sugars have slightly declined, but coffee, rice, and tea have maintained previous rates. Salt petre has been dull, and at almost nominal quota tinns. The tallow market, however, has been more a nimated, and prices have slightly advanced for both present and forward delivery. The Mangerton, from Lisbon, has brought £1,453 in specie. The remainder of the deposit, viz., £1; on the shares of the East India Irrigation and Canal Com- Pany will have to be paid on or before the 15th Proximo. • There is an increase of £2,282 in the traffic re acipts of the South-Eastern Railway, and of £6l ' Ol 3. the Brighton, for the past week. A full inquiry is still reported in the general dis count market, and there is a large increase in the s upply of bills on offer, with less inclination on the Part of capitalists engaging in such transactions to negotiate business on the current terms. This arises from an impression that the rates will fur ther ascend, because specie is likely to be exported for foreign loans, while the absorption at home, on account of the various projects lately introduced, is also expected to produce an effect. The conse quence already has been an advance in the terms accepted in the open market of fully 2 per cent., and very little, if any, accommodation can now• be procured under the Bank of England minimum of 2 Per cent., so that the applications at that estab lishment are largely in excess of the recent average. CITY, Two O'CLOCK, The Liverpool Cotton Market today remains steady, and sales will probably reach 4,000 bales. The English Stock Market opened this morning `with rather a better appearance, but the tendency to buoyancy was not of long duration,—a few sales sufficing shortly afterwards to reproduce the indications of heaviness which have now charac terised business hi this department of the Stock Exchange for several days. At the present moment Consols are 931 a for transfer, and 931 for the account, being a trifle flatter than on the previous afternoon. A few bargains have taken place even at lower quotations, but the latest prices are frac tionally firmer. The New Threes and the Reduced are flat at 931 a ; Exchequer Bills havr receded to 19 a . and 225. prem.; Bank Stock is steady at 239 ; India ditto firm at 228 and 230; and the 5 per Cent. Loan remains at 1081- 1.

The ordinary half -yearly meeting of this company was held this day at the London Tavern. J. N. DANIELL, Esq.) chairman of the Board of Direc tors, presided. _ _ The report, which has already appeared in The Sun, having been taken as read, The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the docu ment, said he had much satisfaction in meeting the share- holders, because the position of their affairs, he thought, would be looked upon as satisfactory. Comparing the ac counts with those for the corresponding six months of 1861 there was an increase of £4,760 ls. 2d. in the receipts, and a decrease of £570 19s 6d. in the expenses, showing a total increase of £5,331 Os. Bd. in the net profits of the last half year, and the dividend the directors recommended was at the rate of .ss. per cent. per annum more than in 1861, and was upon an increased capital of £247,350. The gross revenue for the half-year ending 30 th June, 1862 , h a d b een £52,569 95., and the expenditure £ 2 0,458 Be. 6d., leaving a profit of £32,111 Os. 6d. Although there was no very spe cial increase in the dividend, yet he thought, while neatly every other line had suffered from a falling off of their traffic, it , was extremely gratifying to find that they had not experienced that depression, but on the oontrary, their receipts had i ncreased. The goods traffic which they had expected from the Midland and Great Northern had not come upon their line, but everything was ready to receive it, and it was looked upon as a circum stance that would greatly increase their receipts. Their financial position he looked upon as highly satisfactory, as the whole of their 41 per cent. preference guaranteed stock had been taken up, and 18,000 shares paid in full. He did not think he was called upon to notice the diminu tion of their expenditure, becaus e ' whenever there was any very extensive repel's to be carried out those expenses must necessarily increase. They had fortunately not had any of those repairs to effect, and therefore there had been no large outlay. The com pany had suffered a loss from the death of Mr. at the Joseph Wilson ; but it was proposed to fill up th e vaelancy board by electing a gentleman who had a great stake in the company, viz., Mr. Haigh, who was in every way well calcu lated for the duties he would have to perform. He con eluded by mov i n g the adoption of the report. The motion having been seconded, A PRoPRTETon urged the necessity of economy, and said he was certain the adoption of different coloured tickets for the up and the down journeys wculd greatly increase their wee kly income, as it would prevent some parties travelling withostt paying their fares. The motion was then carried unanimously. A resolution declaring a dividend for the haltyear at the rate of 3 psi cent, per annum was also agreed to. R eso l u tions, for consolidatin g into ordinary stock all those "New Shares , 1860, " no - 71 it - which the whole money subscribed have been paid up, and which have been con verted into preference shares, and f or conso lidating into preference stock all those shares which had been converted from New Shares, 1860, into preference shares, were also Li k greed to unanimously. BOW-STREET. James Leander, who on Tuesday last was charged with violently assaulting George William Sharp, of 2, Emerita Villas, Dalston, in the Harp public-house, this morning surrendered according to the terms of his bail. Mr. Beard en this occasion appeared on behalf of Mr. Smith, and Mr. P &A for the defendant. The case was adjourned on the last occasion by Mr. Hall, the magistrate, in order that the medical man who attended Mr. Sharp might be present. _ _ Mr. Gordon was accordingly in attendance, and stated that Mr. Sharp had no doubt sustained an injury from the effects of the blow given him by the defendant, and one of the arteries had been cut with the glass he held in his hand when he did so ; but he thought it was a wound that might have been stopped without any very great difficulty. Mr. gook said he had to ask for another remand, in order to have some witnesses in attendance, who objected to appear without being summoned for that purpose. The magistrate granted the summons applied for, and accordingly adjourned the case until this day week. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. CHARGE OF MURDER. —Charles Cotiere, furniture broker, of 42, Warren-street, Fitzroy-square, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt, with causing the death of Elizabeth Carly, by throwing her down stairs on the Bth of August. Mr. Sleigh attended for the prosecution (instructed by Mr. lien* Mr. Sleigh said he was instructed on behalf of the relative of the deceased to prosecute on the charge of murder. The prisoner had lived with the deceased for some years and had children by her. He kept a little shop, and she has received several hundred Rounds under a legacy, but he had treated her in the most brutal manner at different times. On the evening of Friday last she went to a house of a friend of her's in great alarm and asked that person to accompany her home. The friend did so, and shortly after their an ival the prisoner arrived home, and called the friend frightful names. The prisoner afterwards rushed at the unfortunate deceased and threw her vio lently on the floor, and the friend fearing the consequences ran out of the house and made her way home, but a neigh bour hearing the cries of " Murder" went over and heard prisoner making use of violent lanuguage towards the de ceased, and saw ` him with hi s h an d up striking her, and heard him say, " Now, scream again if you can, ,, and the screams then ceased. The next morning the surgeon was called in, and the deceased found lying on the floor in a state of nudity, and to all appearance having been dead about an hour. Several witnesses having been examined, the prisoner was remanded by Mr. Tyrwhitt till Monday next. WESTMINSTER, This morning a man named Sobson, who had just come out of the House of Correction, where he had been confined for the publication of a libel, applied for warrants for perjury against Sir James Ferguson, Mr. Disraeli, and several other gentlemen, in order to have the wrong he had undergone redressed. The magistrate refused the applica•. tion, and Jobson said he should apply to another magis trate. SOUTHWARK. John Davis, a labourer, was charged with a desperate assault on a female with whom he had been cohabiting. The wound inflicted being 41,a dangerous nature, the further hearing of the case wasirdjourned for a week. THAMES. A DISPUTED WILL—Mrs. Ellen Making, a widow, was charged with stealing a writing desk and some casks. It appeared that two relatives had been in partnership, and that there was some di , pute about the will. The de fendant thought she had a right to what she had taken. The magistrate told her she must settle her disputes about the will in another court, under the circumstances he should discharge her. 111 E EXTRAORDINARY ATTEMPT TO EX7O.R2 MONEY. EXAMINATION OF THE PRISONER, THIS DAY. Charles Reynolds, but whose real name is Davis, was placed at the bar of the Mansion-house, on remand, in the custody of Sergeant Green, a detective officer, before Mr. Alderman Humphrey, who was sitting for the Lord Mayor, charged with an attempt to extort money (£5OO) by means of threats from Baron Rothschild. Mr. Wontner, solicitor, appeared to conduct the pro secution. On being placed at the bar, the prisoner looked anxiously round the court, and asked if any solicitor attended for him, but no person answered. Mr. Wontner said, in asking the alderman to commit the prisoner for trial on the charge of attempting, by means of threats, to extort money, Sir Anthony Rothschild was no desirous to prosecute the prisoner from any vindictive motives, but simply f r the ends of justice ; as far as was consistent with that view, he wished the prisoner to be mercifully dealt with. He then put in six letters received by Sir Anthony tiothachild, also the advertisements in the newspapers, and asked for a committal. Mr. Goodman asked the prisoner whether he wished to see the letters. The prisoner replied no, but he admitted writing them. Sergeant Green, of the detective force, proved that he caused the insertion of three advertisements, which led to the capture of the prisoner. Major Snell, private secretary to Sir Anthony, proved the opening of the letters, and afterwards delivering them to Superintendent Hodgson. The prisoner here again admitted the writing of the letters. The waiter at the Post-office Coffee-house said the pri soner told her that some letters would come to him, ad dressed to a Mr. Johnston. The deposition taken on the last occasion, together with the six threatening letters, having been read, Mr. Goodman told the prisoner the charge against him was that of wilfully threatening to kill and murder Sir Anthony Rothschild. Alderman Humphrey asked what he had to say in answer to the charge. --- Prisoner—l've got nothing to say, only that I wrote the letters. The Alderman then fully committed the prisoner for trial.

POPULATION AND REPRESENTATION. —The cen sus of last year supplies the means of stating more accu rately than for some years past the proportion of popula tion to representation. It sho ws the following facts at the date of the census :—ln the Engiish counties (exclusive of the boroughs), one M.P. to every 71.423 persons ; in the English boroughs, on e to every 15,557 persons; in the Scottish counties, one member to every 60,606 persons. So that people in the English boroughs have not far from three times as many members to ropresent them as people in the counties. Sir William Armstrong hospitably entertained a body of his workmen, consisting of members of the Elswick Engine Works Reading-room, on Saturday. For the enjoy ment and delectation o f the g uests a mple provision m ade at his mansion at Jeamond. Sir William wa s was m ade and took part in the interesting proceedings, D EA TH OF MR.

" Every possible precaution has been taken to insure strict accuracy, and to assign to each its proper value. The result of the whole will be seen in the following account, which exhibits, at one view the whole of the Company's assets and liabilities as they existed on the 30th June of this year : BALANCE SHEET.

WM. HENRY SMITH, jun., " From this statement it appears that the liability under all the Company's contracts is estimated at £4,694,810 145., and that after making provision for this sum, for the pro prietors' capital, and for other items, there remains a balance on the surplus fund account of £636,042 14s. 4d. This balance v. ill, I consider, justify the division on the pre sent occasion of £158,650, leaving £477,392 14s. 4d. to accumulate in aid of future di.triMitions. The proprietors' portion will admit of an additional dividerd to them of 16 per cent., or 16s. per s hare, which, with the dividend now falling due, will make 21s. per share, payable to them in October as usual. The policy-holders' portion will afford a reversionary addition to the sums assured, ranged accord ing to the age of the life assured, from 20 to 70 per i cent, of the premiums paid since 1857. As soon as possible the amounts to be added in each case will be ascertained,' and the usual notices forwarded ; but some months must, necessarily elapse before the whole can be despatch d . ,, ee b t o e r e s Such is the result of the 1 iboricus investigation made into the company's affairs. To the Directors just very satisfactory ; and they doubt not that it will equally so so to the proprietors. They therefore proceed at once to the remaining bus i ness of the meeting, It a Company having an annual income is prop ose d th a t s h a ll merge in the Eagle on equitable terms,of about £BO,OOO conditions stipulated for i s t h at t and one of the we have seats at the Board o f the of its directors shall Eagle. To this arrange ment it is of course necesEsgle should g i ve their sary that th e p ro p r i e t o rs of the went ; of it, it will be necessa if they see fit to approve and also to make 1 1 to pass the following resolution, members of the B provision for payment of such new place. Board in the event of the transfer taking Resolution--« That on completion of the transfer to the Eagle of the business of a Company haying an income of about /go n )40 per annum, the Directo rs of the Ea g le shall have --- power to nominate as their co-directors two of the present Direotors of such Company, and that such tw , ,-.N, Directors shall hold their offices for life, without qualifica tion either as shareholders or policy-holders, but subject to all the other disqualifications named in the Eagle Coin pany's deed." The question as to the payment of the gentlemen so to be elected the Directors leave in the hands of the meeting, and now bring their report to a close. The CHAIRIIAN addressed the proprietors at some length, after which it was unanimously resolved that the report be a pproved and adopted; the acceptance of the transfer re ferred to therein sanctioned ; and power given to the bid to elect the two additional directors should such election be [needful.

A meeting of the:proprieters of t hi:4 Company was held at R New Brid ge street, ackfriars, on Friday, the Sih inst., Dr. Guy, the chairman of the board, in the chair, when the following Report was read : Another quinquennial term has passed away—the 11th since the establishment of the Company—and the duty again devolves upon the Directors of reporting to the pro prietors as to the exact financial position of the Company, after a minute investigation of its liabilities, and a careful estimate of the value of its assets. But they will first briefly advert to the events of the past year, which it will be seen are not wholly devoid of interest. The surplus fund account exhibits the following particu lars, viz.:— SURPLUS FUND ACCOUNT. INCOME OF TIIE YEAR ENDING 30TH JUNE, 1862.

Here it will be seen that the total income of the year was £390,536 ss. 9d., and the total outlay £301,647 13s. 6d. ; leaving a difference on the year in favour of the company of £BB,BBB 12s. 3d. The premiums on account of new assurances are £24,374 18s. 5d., of which sum £6,219 10s. has been expended in re-assurances. The claims amount to £ 2 07,094 Bs. 7d., and are less than those of the previous year by upwards of £48,000. The ex penses are about £l,OOO more this year than they usually are, in consequence partly of the increased cost of the Company's new premises, and partly of the esti mated depreciation in the value of the lease and furniture. The Directors will now address themselves t 3 the more important business of the meeting, and will call the atten tion of the proprietors to the following extract from the Report of the Actuary, which, after mature consideration, they have al proved : " I have the honour to report that so much of the calcu lations as relates to the determination of the Company's assets and liabilities has been completed, and that the re sults sr - as follow : " On making a most careful examination of the Company's registers, it appears that there were in force on 30th June last, no less than 16,257 assurances of various descriptions-- that the amount assured by them was £9,639,222, and that the annual premiums receivable in respect of them amounted to £307,376.

(Advertisement.) PROCLAMATION OF GA; RIBALDI IN SICILY. The following was the proclamation addressed by Garibaldi to the Sicilians bef ore retiring into the wood of Ficuzza with his volunteers Palermitans,—Europe, the entii e world, has de clared its opinion on the Roman question against the unjustifiable oc cu p a ti on o f th e Italian capit a l. This is a sacred truth. Y ou , i n i t i a t, ) rs of the It a li an resurrection, and the principal actoll i in that grand work, have f e lt t h e shame which w eighs upon the nation and are preparing to remove, it. The penin sula worthily responds to your call , and those who desire the peace of th e world ougbt to yield to the legitimate will of twenty-five mill ions of Italians. You are exasperated at the measui vs taken by the government, which has now addec I to your indig nation by recalling the man who he d justly merited your affection. Yes, the recall of tl le Marquis Pal lavicino is a fresh imprudence. Gr ieved at the loss of this veteran, this martyr of liberty, you ought to overlook the errors of those who are the cause of his recal. These men will pass away, be ;t the principles of Italian nationality are imperishal Ae; It is in the name of those principles that you h ave suffered so much, and you have proclaimed then tin an indelible manner, after twenty ages of hopes and disappoint ments. We are strong—we ought also to be calm and dignified. I must go far away, i lilt I hope only - for a short time. Near as well as di. 3tant, my heart is with you. Our programme is t hat which we have shouted together upon your I splendid barri cades—" Italy and Victor Emmanue L" With this programme, we will go to Venice am I Rome. For tune will smile once more on these y onng veterans of Italian liberty sprung, like Pall as, from your bosom armed at all points. I reckon on you as the pedestal of our future, as the base of o iur operations, upon which my gallant volunteers are going to labour in the great work of the delivi trance of the slaves,—Yours for life, Palermo, July 31. G. ( ; ARIBALDI. ANOTHER CASE OF PLUND.E7BING AN EMIGRANT. (From the Liverpool Mercury.) Another heartless robbery of an en iigrant, similar in its details to that of the young man. from Galway, the particulars of which were before ate public some time ago, took place at this port on Saturday week. The victim in this case is a young Englit ihman,na.med Richard James, and his plunderers are two of the many fellows who prowl about the docks for the purpose of fleecing emigrants. The amount of money obtained was £llO in sovereigns. James, being about to proceed to Melbourne, went to the dock in which the Champion of the Seas was lying for the purpose of looking at the ship, as he contemplated taking a passage in her. At the dock he was met by a man who introduced himself by asking him if he was about to emigrate. On being told that he was, and on learning the place of his destination, the fellow affected to be much gratified,saying that he also was " going out," as he bad a wife and two children at Melbourne, and he and his newly-made acquaint ance would be companions on the voyage, and seek their fortunes together. They proceeded to a neigh bouring public house, where they drank to each other's and their mutual prosperity. On leaving this house they were joined by another man, a " particular friend" of the one who had first pre sented himself ; and he, after being introduced as a fellow-voyager, joined their company. As in the case of the " Galway Grecian," a walk through the cemetery was proposed, after leaving which place the conversation turned upon the caution necessary to be taken with their finances before starting on the voyage. The man who had first introduced him , scif to James said he and his friend had provided themselves with a peculisr sort of purse in which to keep their money safe. He was desirous that their newly-made friend should have one, and accord ingly made him a present of one, putting in it a sovereign for luck." Another drink was then pro posed, and they went together into a public house in Copperas-hill. Here the man who had first pre sented himself said if James would give him his money he would show him how to "stow" it in the purse. James foolishly handed over to him 110 sovereigns, which the fellow assumed to put into the purse, and then returned it to James. They left the house and parted company, with the under standing that they would meet on the following day. On examining the purse James found in place, of his sovereigns 110 " Jacks," not worth so many farthings. The police were applied to, and detec tive Smith put in charge of the case. From infor mation that officer received he apprehended the fel low who first accosted James in Manc hester on Fri day. He is a returned convict. The other a ndscourel is not yet in custody. Only a few pounds the money have been recovered. MARKETS-THIS DAY. HAY MARKETS.

The number of these globes of fire on the Place will b e a b out 2,00 0. Rows of s i m il ar globes will run from one lamp-post lo the other, all up the Champs Elysees. At short intervals there will be trophies decked with flags and lighted with gas, represent jug the Emperor's mon ogram an d t h e I m perial Eagle. The fountain at the Itond Point will be splendidly Plummeted with gas, and the circuit round it will present eight arcades tastefully ornamented and brilliantly lighted. The total number of lights will not be lees than 122,000."

The organisation tit suck a force having been intrusted to Mr. Lay, the Insp ec t or- General of Chines e Customs, he applied for the sanction of her Majesty's Govern ment. It appeared that th ere i s no longer any ordinance m operation enjoining neutrality upon the Queen's subjects, and the Admiralty consented to grant, leave of absence to any o ffi cers wh ose services may not be re quired.
