MONEY MARKET. CITY NEWS YESTERDAY. A meeting of the Trust and Loan Company of Upper Canada is convened for the 28th inst., to de clare a dividend. The half -yearly meeting of the Danube and 131 ack Sea Railway and Kustendjie Harbour Com pany is called for the 29th inst. CITY NEWS---THIS DAY . CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. °wing to the recent diminution in the with drawals of gold from the Bank of England, the Gazette return, published yesterday afternoon, shows only a small reduction in the stock of bullion, and the other items of the account generally exhi bit a favourable tendency. The discount operations of the establishment, for example, have materially fallen off, because the commercial requirements have continued very moderate, and the banks and private firms, by making concessions, have been enabled to secure nearly the whole of the bills brought forward for negotiation. The reserve of notes, moreover, has been largely augmented. The particulars are shown in the following table : Active Circulation .. £20,454,245 Decrease .. .. 64.5,300 Bullion .. .. 15,389,623 Decrease .. • • .. .. 36,287 Rest 3 , 093 , 658 Increase .. • • • • • • 9,610 Public Deposits .. • • .. 6,928,047 Increase .. .. 656,912 Other Deposits.. .. • • .. 14,738,147 Decrease .. • • • • • • 241,742 Seven Day and other Bills 780,715 Increase 1,308 Government Securities „ 11,113,992 Increase 50,000 Other Securities 19,394,297 Decrease .. • • • • .. 232,895 Notes Unemployed „. ••8,717,750 Increase .. 606,025 The Seine, from the West Indies, has brought £144,158, and the Bavaria, from New York, £28,971, in specie. _ Business in the Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets has been partially suspended, owing to the foggy 'weather, and the•public sales of most of the principal staples, viz., of sugar, coffee, rice,and wool, announced to take place yesterday, were postponed until to-day. According to the latest advices from New York, Malley was rather easier, and loans at call were obtainable at 5 per cent. Gold had further declined, but it was considered that the lowest point had been touched, and that henceforward a steady ad vance in price might be expected. There was not ranch business in foreign exchange, the bankers being the chief buyers, and they were not disposed to sell at the prevailing rates. Stocks and shares Continued to improve. Two O'CLOCK. At Paris this morning, the Three per Cent. Rentes were quoted 70f. 55c., being k per cent. lower than yesterday. The Bank of France Return for the past Month has been published to-day, and is unfavour able. There is a diminution in the stock of bullion or £1,860,000, and of 1284,400 on the Treasury balances. The discounts have increased £3,445,000, and the notes £1,620,000. The Market for the English Funds opened this morning with a better appearance, and buyers came forward whose operations led to an improvement of 14 Per cent. The tendency of prices seemed to be favourably influenced by the Bank of England return showing scarcely any movement in the bullion, an increase in the reserve of notes, and a falling off in the demand for money. Shortly afterwards, however, the particulars of the Bank of France return for the past month became known, and as its features were unsatisfactory, prices once more gave way, and, at the latest mo ment, the market indicates heaviness. Consols, for transfer have been 931 1, and are now 931 ; for the account, less the dividend, they have been 921 I, and afterwards 92 8. The New Threes and the Reduced remain at 91i 92 ; Bank Stock has de clined to 235 and 2351 ; India ditto to 225; and the 5 per Cent.

Business in the Railway Share Market continued .v ery dull, although prices generally exhibited in creased firmness. Caledonian, Lancashire and Yorkshire, London, Chatham, and Dover, North Western and Midland, advanced 10s., and South Western ss. In the Foreign and Colonial undertakings the operations were unimportant.

(Before the Judge Ordinary.) STONES V. STONES AND PRICE. 104 } 100 71 107é 7 1061 1 1 104 i In this case the husband petitioned the Court for dis solution of his marriage on the ground of adultery. '1 he petitioner was a publican and 'dealer in pottery in Staffordshire, and was married in 1854. Some time after the wife became addicted to drink, and formed an acquaintance with the co-respondent, which, according to the evidence, terminated in an adulterous intercourse of a most gross cha racter, a servant of the respondent proving that she used to sleep with Mrs. Stones, and on two occasions Price went to the bed of the respondent while both women were in it. Other improper conduct was witnessed by other parties, the sister of the petitioner being one. The case was partly heard yesterday, and this morning the Judge Ordinary pronounced his decision. His lordship said he bad considered the evidence, and had arrived at the conclusion that the charge against the woman had been proved. The evidence of the sister went to show that there bad been such familiarities between the respondent and Price as to lead him to the belief that adultery had been committed. Although Dr. Spinks had most ungenerously argued that the evidence of the servant girl Walters, who alone proved any direct conduct showing adultery, was not enough to justify the petitioner's prayer being granted, yet he (the Judge Ordinary) found that there was corroboration of the conduct ascribed to the respondent with Price in the most material points. The trifling difference as to the dates spoken of by one witness made no substantial difference, and the decree nisi would therefore be pronounced with costs. ,8€52. POLICE-THIS DAY. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. THE PARISH OP ST.GEORGE'S,HANOVEE.SQUA.RE, AND THE Poon.—Three men, named Henry Sasby, Patrick Dunn, and Thomas Moore, were charged before Mr. Knox with unlawfully breaking several panes of glass in the win dows of St. George's-workhouse, Mount street, Grosvenor square. John Lines, the , task-master, proved that six panes of glass, of the value of 18s., were broken by the prisoners. Sergean Winters, 8 C, proved seeing a crowd of persons standing at the door of the workhouse, and the three pri soners were given into his custody. Saxby admitted break ing some of the windows. One of the prisoners said that he had been kept waiting for some time in the cold. Mr. Knox asked whether there was any pretence for say ing that poor persons were unduly kept outside thA house in this inclement weather. Sergeant Winters said he had heard persons told by tho officers of the house that they could not be admitted. There was also a board placed in front of the house, stating that the casual ward was closed. Mr. Knox asked the porter of the workhouse how that was. They had no business to close the ward. The porter said, that in consequence of the numbers ap plying in July last, the wards were ordered to be closed. There used to be 300 or 400 persons applying to be admitted every night— all the beggars of London. After the ward was closed it was left to his discretion who to admit, and he admitted as many as he could. Men of the prisoner's class came in bodies of 20. He gave them bread, but he could not admit more than the ward would hold. Mr. Knox asked how many persons the casual ward would hold. The porter said 10 men and 14 women—in all about 24. Mr. Knox said that to let in only as many as 24 seemed to him a sad deficiency of accommodation. It seemed by the porter's own showing that the casual ward was very deficient, and he could not see at this inclement season of the year that the parish was doing its duty in only taking in 24 poor persons. At the same time it would not do t 3 allow persons to smash the workhouse windows. One of the men said he had walked 15 miles yesterday. It was the first time of his going there, and he could not stop in the streets all night in,the cold. Mr. Knox said they had no right to break the windows. He would again ask the porter whether he meant him to understand that there was only accommodation for 24 per sons in the casual ward. The porter said that was the case. The prisoners were ordered to pay the damage or 7 days in default. Emma Smith was also charged with a similar offence. She said she had been kept two hours waiting in the cold for admission, and then broke the window. She was simi larly sentenced.

This was an action to recover £3 damages sustained under the following circumstances, of great importance to persons proceeding upon excursions : Plaintiff said—ln August last I saw an advertisement in a newspaper of an excursion to Portsmouth for ss. by water, and as I wanted to go, I with two friends took tickets per the Leda steamboat. We left London .bridge safely, and went on our journey until we arrived at Southend, when the engine broke down and we could not proceed any fur ther—(laughter)—being detains d at Southend two days— (renewed laughter)—when we were taken back to London bridge, and never reached Portsmouth at all. I claim now £3 damages for this detention, as it was defendant's duty to have satisfied himself of the seaworthiness of the steamer before letting it start. Mr. Cattarns, of Mark-lane, for defendant, urged that the steamer was surveyed by the proper Government official at regular intervals, and that the break down was an accident.. RIT 1 Eh. Plaintiff—Oh, she was an old vessel. 1071 971 f 8 1111 Mr. Cattarns—She runs now. Defendant is only the agent, and plaintiff might have found out the principal before suing. 1001 1 1071 f I 38i i i 8 i His Honour--The principal is not disclosed on the receipt nor in the advertisement of the excursion. If the defendant pays he can sue the owner. Mr. Cattarns—Most likely defendant Would have paid, but he considered plaintiff made an exorbitant demand. Plaintiff could have gone to Portsmouth by rail far 58. His Honour—Oh I but he required a sea trip. (Laughter.) Mr. Cattarns—Then surely he cannot complain, as he had two extra days at sea without charge. (This most in genious argument was received with great laughter.) His Honour—Where did the advertisement appear Plaintiff—ln Bradshaw. Mr. Cattarns then argued that, as defendant was only the agent, he was not liable, but His Honour ruled that he had not disclosed his principal, and that plaintiff was not bound to run about to find out who was the owner. Defendant had his remedy against the owner, but as plaintiff had been detained at Southend for two days, and as he was not taken to Portsmouth at all, there was a clear breach of contract, and so plaintiff would have a verdict with costs. PEARS Y. THE UNITED KINGDOM ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH COMPANY (LIMITED). This was an action to recover for work ,and labour done in repairing 'he roof of a house damaged by putting up the company's poles. Mr. Beard appeared for the plaintiff, who stated that he had been employed by a Mr. Blanchard (who was in the service of the company at the time, but had since left) to do the work, A gentleman who represented the company said that Blanchard had no authority to employ plaintiff. Blanchard's duty was to obtain the sanction of householders for the erec tion of the poles. _ _ _ His honour thought that Blanchard had authority to employ plaintiff, and the company must pay. Defendants' agent said he should certainly move for a new trial. Verdict for plaintiff, with costs. • DES 7 RUC TIVE FIRES--(THIS DAY.) This morning about 3 o'clock the greatest alarm was caused in the neighbourhood of the Whitechapel-road, owing to a fire of rather a destructive character breaking out in the premises belonging to Mr. J. Pacifico, a photo granhic artist and apparatus dealer, carrying on business at No. 93, in the above-mentioned thoroughfare. The dis• covery was made by a police-constable of the II division by noticing, whilst proceeding along his beat, a dense mass of smoke pouring forth from the warehouse at the back of the house. Ihe officer without delay sprung his rattle, and having aroused the inmates of the front houses and procured assistance, he sent off for the aid of the Royal Society's escapes and engines. The conductor quickly attended with his escape, and was followed by the engines of the parish and several of the London Brigade, and also one of the land steamers, bringing with them Capt. Shaw, the superintendent, Mr. Bridges, the foreman of district A, Engineer Maidman, and a strong corps of firemen. Fortu nately the mains of the East London Company yielded an abundant supply of water, from which the firemen went to work in an intrepid m anner, b ut in spite o f t h e i r exertions the fire continual its ravages for some time, and having seizod upon the s t a i rcase i t was feared that th e e ntire pile of buildings would have been consumed, Owing, however, to the great quantity of the opposing element thrown upon the flames, they were eventually ex tinguished, but not until the back warehouses were burnt out and their con tente consumed, and the stairs and front house considerably damaged by fi re . Th e b ack part of the ware h o use belong ing to Mr. Austin, furniture dealer (No. 42), is also damaged by water. Fortunately the whole of the inmates escaped in safety. The origin of the fire is unknown. The loss will fall upon the Kent Mutual, the Sun, and Royal Exchange Fire Offices, A fire also to3k place in the private residence of A. Solo man, E q., No. 35, Bloomsbury -square, and had it not been so opportunely discovered, would doubtlessly have in volved the destruction of two of the splendid mansions. The fire commenced in the third floor of Mr. Soloman's premises, and had worked its way into the third floor of No. 36, belonging to Mr. J. Hall. The engines of the brigade, under the Direction of Mr. Fogo, the chief officer of the B district, quickly attended, and also engineers Perryer and Flynns, and the firemen happily succeeded in getting the fire extinguished, but not until considerable damage was done to each building. The two owners were insured :n the Sun and Westminster fire offices. A fire also took place the same morning in the premises of Mr. T. Allen, beer-shop proprietor, No. 9, Wyndham road, Camberwell, which was caused by an escape of gas. Owing to the timely aid afforded, the damage done was not considerable. GENERAL BUTLER'S PROCEEDINGS. A short time since it was announced in the Ame rican news that Gen. Butler had forcibly removed valuables to the amount of about 30,000 dls. from a Prussian vessel, the Essex, which was on the point o f l e a v ing New Orleans for Europe. The Baltic Gazette contains a letter from Stralsund, which thus describes the affair :—" If the most recent news from New Orleans is confirmed, Gen. Butler, on the 9th ult., after having illegally detained the vessel for 25 days, forcibly removed about 30,000 dols. worth of valuable property from on board, and set her at liberty. According to the law in this case, the owners of the vessel will not be liable in England for the amount of the valuables in question, as the captain is not responsible for the consequences of an exercise of force by a foreign ruler or his represen tative, and it will be the business of the interested parties (partly English subjects) to demand at Washington the restoration of their property. However, the owner of the Ship Essex, by means v of the Prussian Mi nister a t - Washington, li - as made a claim on the Government of the United States for compensation for the loss caused to him in so shameful a manner, and has claimed the protection, and especially the su pp ortof th e Minister of Foreign Affairs in Berlin. The amount claimed as compen sation is very considerable, and i s comprised under various heads , includin g the maint enance o f the numerous passengers during th e 2 6 days' detention, the wa ges and support of the crew o f 25 men for a month, the loss of t he frei ght on the 30,000 dols. worth of property invested removed, th e i nterest on about 60,000 Prussian thalers in the ship, los s o f time, and other items, so that the total amount of the claim will be about 25,000 dole THAMES. A SAILOR ON A WROWGFTACK.—CaroIine Macdonald, a most determined and desperate thief, who has been fre quently in custody, was brought before Mr. Selfe, charged with stealing a canvas bag containing about £8 in money from the person of Mr. George Gaskin, the chief mate of the ship Eliza. The prosecutor, a veteran seaman, with a master's certifi cate of competency, said he was making sail over Tower hill last night, or early this morning, when he was regu larly boarded by the prisoner, who caught hold of his star board arm and invited him to go home with her. He shook her off and said he did not want her company, but she hung on to ;him, and insisted on .convoying him wherever he went. He tried in vain to part company with her, and at last went down a turning to avoid her. She followed him, and finding he was on a wrong tack ihe ported his helm, and was returning towards Ratcliff-high way 'Mien she laid hold of him again, and put her hand into his right hand trousers' pocket, from which she took a canvas bag containing £8 and some odd shillings. Ho sung out for the police and caught her hand. The money rolled out of the bag, and some of it was caught by a police-con stable before it reached the ground. In answer to questions by Mr. Selfe, the prosecutor said he was quite sober last night. He drank a pint or two of porter, and nothing else. When his money was counted at the station-house there was only £4l2s. in the bag. He lost about 10s. He believed some of the prisoner's confede• rates had the money. There were four or five women with her—a regular fleet of them. William Ambridge, a police-constable, 132 11, said he found the last witness on his back in Neptune-court, Well close square, and the prisoner standing over him. She had a bag in her band, which he seized, and the money slipped through his hand into the gutter. The prisoner said "Look, he is dropping his money." Witness replied, "No, he is not, you are dropping it." Ile recovered £4 12s. sd. Mr. Selfe asked the prosecutor if he went down Neptune court for any other purpose than to avoid the prisoner ? Mr. Gaskin—l can assure you, for nothing else. Mr. Selfe--Neptune-court is a very suspicious place in deed. How came you on your back? Mr. Gaskin—Why, she regularly capsized me. I was on my beam ends. Ambridge said that the prisoner put a pawnbrukei's duplicate into her mouth in the station-house, and at tempted to chew it. Ile plucked it from her mouth, and discovered it related to a silver watch pawned for lis. Mr. Selfe remanded the prisoner. MARKETS---THIS DAY. MARK-LANE. There was a very moderate supply of English wheat re ceived fresh up to this morning's market. The trade, however, was dull, both for red and white qualities, and prices had a downward tendency.

BULWER.—News has been recei ve d b y telegra ph at Valetta o f the arrival on the s th inst , at Alexan d r ia, from Corfu, of Sir Henry gulwer, British Ambassador at Constantinople. Her Majesty is desirous of acting in concurrence with France upon the great questions now agitating the world, and upon none more so than on the contingencies connected with the great struggle now going on in North America. Neither her Majesty the Queen nor the British nation will ever forget the noble and emphatic manner in which the Emperor of the French vindicated the law of nations, -and assisted the cause of peace in the instance of the seizure of the Confederate Commsssioners on board the Trent. Her Majesty's Government recognise with pleasure in the design of arresting the progress of war by friendly measures the benevolent views and humane intentions of the Emperor., They are alao of opinion that if the steps proposed were to be taken, the concurrence of Russia would be extremely desirable. Her Majesty's Government have, however, not been informed up to the present time that the Russian Govern ment have Eigrced 'to co•operato with England and France on this occasion, although that Government may support the endeavours of. England. and France to attain the end proposed. ~, . . But is the end proposed attainable at the present moment by the course suggested by the Government of France ? Such is the question which has been anxiously and care fully examined by her Majesty's Government. After weighing all the information which has been re . ceived from America, her Majesty's Government are led to the conclusion that there is no ground at the present moment to hope that the Federal Government would accept the proposal suggested, and a refusal from Washington at present would prevent any speedy renewal of the offer. Her Majesty's Government think, therefore, that it would be better to watch carefully the progress of opinion in America, and if, as there appears reason to hope, it may be found to have undergone, or may undergo hereafter, any change, the three Courts might then avail themselves of such change to offer their friendly counsel with a greater prospect than now existed of its being accepted by the two contending parties. Her Majesty's Government will communicate to that of France any intelligence they may receive from Washing ton cr Richmond bearing on ihis important subject. Your Excellency may read this despatch to M. Drouyn de Lhuye, and give him a copy of it.—l am, &c., (Signed) RUSSELL. THE BANK NO7E ROBBERY. MANSION-HOUSE-THIS DAY. To-day George Buncher, Rokert Cummings, William Burnett, Richard Brewer, James Griffiths, and Henry Williams were again pieced at the bar before Alderman Cubitt, charged with being concerned with others in forg ing and uttering certain papers purporting to be Bank of England notes, with which to defraud the governor and company of the Bank of England. Mr. Freshfield attended to prosecute; Mr. Lewis de fended Brewer. Henry Brown, the approver, was this day re•examined. He said—l returned the key I got from Burnett to Brewer. I have seen the key since in the possession of Sergeant Webb (produced). This is the key I got from Burnett, to the best of my belief. I took the whole of the paper from the size-drawing machine while it was at work. I stood at the end at which the notes came out. I was engaged at the time in effecting some repairs to it. my father and myself attended to wood and Mr. Soper to iron work. The machine is attended to by girls, one at each end, The time I slept at Brewer's was the last time I took some paper, about six weeks after the reward was offered. Burnett and myself 'went down to Laverstoke together. I got out of the train at Basingstoke, and went on by a ev ening, . and latter one to Overton in the e arrivedaro f the at Laverstoke about 11. I was accompli . anwla it had a black road by a person named William Li asked I hag in my hind quite empty. I was asked by Brewer whether I could find Burnett. 1 said I could, and I after wards went to his mother's house at Plunistead. She first declined to give me his address. ha bit h a bit of travelling with a Mr. Lewis—Were y ou in the black bag ? t g o ot hi t m o how many times I hav e Witness—No. I cannot say It might be about three times.

I e g a - r - r i y n- a ey belonging to my dep ar t ment. On the morning I am s peaking of I was in the act of opening the door with my k e y when I found a strange key in the lock. That produced by Sergeant Webb is the one. I carried it to Mr. Lichfield, who is a clerk in the mill. Five is the average time for closing the mill, and after business hours the place is locked up. There is a carpenter's yard within the mill bounds. That yard is closed at half-past five, and afterwards locked by the person leaving. The carpenter keeps the key of that yard, and it is his duty to lock it up when he goes away. I have seen Brewer let himself into the mill by the little door after it had been locked up. I have seen him there at six, seven, and as late as half-past eight. I should say the key produced is the master key, which would admit to all parts of the mill. By Mr. Lewis —I have been at the mill about sixteen or seventeen years. I expected Brewer was doing some work for Mr. Portal seeing him going into the mill at such late hours. I never knew that the foreman was in the habit of lending Brewer his key. Brewer went into the mill quite openly. I could not see what Brewer did, because be passed through the little door which led to the north side of the mill. This would lead to the carpenter's shop. I recollect about three or four years ago a master key of the mill being lost. _Thukey was missed from a place where Brown and his father had been at work. I cannot say the key produced is the one that was lost. I was not in the constant habit of seeing B ewer at work in the carpen ter's shop after- hours. I never mentioned to anybody the fact that I had seen Wm in the mill frequently after it was closed because he was a mould maker, and I could not tell what - he was doing. I don't ever recollect seeing Mr. Shelter and Brewer go into the yard together. I have seen Brewer come out of tha place al one. - By Mr. Freshfield—When Brewer passed into the car penter's yard I could not see where he went. There is access to the mill by a master key from three portions of the premises. Mr. John Burgess Soper--I am engineer residing at Basingstoke, and have been engaged in business for Mr. Portal at Laverstoke. In 1859-60 I put up the size machine for Mr. Portal. In the year 1861 I was engaged in effect ing certain alterations. A model of the size machine was hero preduced, which, having been explained, the witness went on to say--Thero is a spot on the north side of the mac Lino from which paper could be extracted without being perceived by the person at work. The work of Homy Brown constintly took him to that spot. I recollect , Brewer coming 'to my h o u se a t Basingstoke in the autumn of 1861. He said he had called on me because ho did not like to come to the place without giving me a look in. He was very much intoxicated. I asked him in to take a cup of tea, because I thought it would do him good. He said he would not go in, as be had Henry Brown and another person waiting for him. I knew of the reward coming out on the Monday morning, On the Thursday before that I saw Brewer near the edge of the rain water tank which was being sunk in the mill yard. Brewer was speaking of the paper makers filling up their time by digging, and rather sympathizing with the teen about the laboriousness of their work. The conversation then turned about making pro vision for old age, and he ultimately said he had a little game of his own playing out, and as soon as it was done he should quit the mill. At the same time the father of Henry Brown came to the opposite side of the tank' to that at which we were standing. Brewer said, " That's a curious old man; 1 believe him to be a very dangerous one. I re plied I did not think so, .as I had always found him at tentive and willing to oblige; By Mr. Lewis—Paper could not bo snatched off the in ill without damaging it. The paper is in the mill 25 minutes before it passed' from one end to the other. Whilst the mill was working Brown would have to go on with any thing he might have to do. Brewer never told me he was manufactufing a machine with which he hoped to make a fortune. He did not know that a machine for making moulds had been taken from his house. By Mr. Freshfield—The break in the regular delivery of the paper by the machine would occasion no surprise, as it often occurs. Daniel Chapman, stution-master, at Overton, said—l recollect Brown coming there in June or July. , By Mr.:Lewis—l was induced to notice him in conse quence of his being intoxicated, and the boys laughing at him. He was so drunk that ho could not take care of him self. William Lichfield—l recollect meeting Brown one Sun.. day evening in the month of July in the present year. Ho had a shiny bag in his hand. He had nothing but two shirt collars in it. When I first saw Brown he wanted to meke out that he did not know me.' However, when he recollected me, he said it was too far to go back to Overton to have a glass of grog. I walked along the road for nearly a mile with him. After I left, Brown walked in the direc tion of Laverstoke. I should not call Brown drunk when I met him, but he had been thinking, He threw his bag in the road, and as I went to pick it up it came open, and thus I was enabled to see the contents. Mr. Freshfield said he now proposed to go into the case against Williams. Sergeant Henry Webb, of the city detective police, said —On tho 30th October .I went to Birmingham. I was in company with another officer. We went to the Victoria road, Ashton New -town. We dug in a bank there for some time, when we found a copper plate, with the follow ing words engraved upon it : " 1862, October 13, London, 13 October. W. P. GATTIE. On Thursday, Nov. 6, I went to 85, St. Paul's. road, Ken nington, where there is a plate on the door with the words " Jackson, engraver," on it. I knocked at the door, end from the message I sent in to prisoner, Williams came down. I said, " Mr. Jackson ;" he r, plied " Yes." I then. told him my name was Webb, and I came here to speak to you respecting a parcel containing a copper plate which was sent to you on the 25th of October, directed to Mr. Moore, care of Mrs. Gliggs, Woolmer-place, Ashton New-town. Prisoner said I know nothing about it ; I never sent such a parcel. I said, well, I'll show you, the copper plate. When I did so prisoner took it in his hand, and after carefully looking at it, said he knew nothing about it. I said, if you'll allow us we.will go up to your workshop, as there is a better light there. We all three went up to the first-floor front room. I then told him we were police officers, and that he was not asked to criminate himself. I put the plate again into his hand, and said, "Do you mean to say that was not engraved by you?" He ultimately said he did engrave it. I asked him who for, and he said Griffiths, the man in custody about the bank notes, and that he had done work for him for years. I told him it was part of tc Bank of Engtand note, and ho said he was not ignorant of that. I told him I must take him into custody, when ho said he was sorry for that, as he had some work to do for Mr. Defries, whom to other person could do. Mr. Lewis wished this case to be entirely severed from the one in which they had been engaged, especially as the forged notes about which they were inquiring were not taken from the plate produced. Mr. Freshfield said he could not do this. The prisoners were then remanded until Thursday next at one o'clock, - - LONDON GAZETTE.—This Evening. WHITEHALL, Nov. 13.

SUN OFFICE, SEVEN O'CLOCK. INTERVENTION IN AMERICA LORD RUSSELL'S REPLY TO THE FRENCH GOVERNMENT. (From the Gazette of this evening.) FOREIGN OFFICE, Nov. 14. • The following despatch has been addressed by Earl Rus sell to Earl Cowley, her Majesty's Ambassador at Paris : FOREIGN OFFICE, Nov. 13. My Lord,—The Count de Flahault came to the Foreign office by appointment, on Monday, the 10th instant, and read to me a despatch from Drouyn de Lhuys, relating to the Civil War in North America. In this despatch the Minister for Foreign Affairs states, that Europe has followcd with painful interest the struggle which has now been going on for rn•nre than a year on the American Continent. Ho (hies justice to the energy and perseverance which have been displayed by both sides, but he observes that these proofs of their courage have been given at the expense of innumerable calamities and im mense bloodshed. To these accompaniments of civil coLflict is to be added the apprehension of servile war, which would be the climax of so many irreparable misfortunes. If those calamities affected America only, the sufferings of a friendly nation would be enough to excite the anxiety and sympathy of the Emperor. But Europe has also suffered in One of the principal branches of her industry, and her artizans have been sub jetted to the most cruel trials. France and the Maritime Powers have during this struggle maintained the strictest neutrality; but the senti ments by which they are animated, far from imposing on them anything like indifference, seem, on the contrary, to require that they should assist the two belligerent parties in an endeavour to escape from a position which appears to have no issue. The forces of the two sides have hitherto fought with balanced success, and the latest accounts do not show any prospect of a speedy termination of the war. These circumstances, taken together, would seem to favour the adoption of measures which might bring about a ,ruce. The Emperor of the French, therefore, is of opinion that there is now an opportunity of offering to the belligerents the good offices of the Maritime Powers. He therefore proposes to her Majesty, as well as to the Emperor of Russia, that the three Courts should endeavour, both at Washington and in communication with the Confederate States, to bring about a suspension of arms of six months, during vihich every act of hostility, direct or indirect, should cease, at sea as well as on land. This armistice might, if necessary, be renewed for a further period. This .proposal, M. Drouyn de Lhuys proceeds to say, would not imply on the part of the'three Powers any judg ment on the origin of the war, or any pressure on the nego tiations for peace which it is hoped would take place during the armistice. The three Powers would only interfere to smooth obstacles, and only within limits which the two in terested parties would prescribe. The French Government is of opinion that, even in the event of failure of immediate success, these overtures might be useful in turning the minds of men, now heated by pas eion, to consider the advantages of conciliation and of peace. Such is, in substance, the proposal of the Government of the Emperor of the French, and I need hardly say that it has attracted the serious attention of her Majesty's Govern- m'ent.
