MONEY MARKET. CITY NEWS, YESTERDAY. A check was uiven to the stock markets this morning by the success gained by the Confederates over the Federals, which appears to discourage the idea of an early termination of the war. The stag nation of business is further increased by an expecta tion that money will become somewhat dearer, although no indication of an anxious character is presented. Meanwhile there is a steady demand for all good investments. Indian railway securities, amongst others, were in increased request to-day. The English funds were fiat, owing to the full supply of stock shown at the settlement now in progress, and any tendency to recovery was pre vented in the afternoon by a withdrawal of gold from the Bank. English railway stocks were strengthened during the latter part of the day by the anticipation of better receipts from the now rising Exhibition traffic. American securities have given way, in consequence of the news from New York. Italian Five per Cents. and Lombardo-Vene tian Railway shares were very buoyant. The demand for money, both at the Bank of England and elsewhere, was only moderate, but owing to the prevailing idea that the exportation of bullion on account of foreign loans will ere long cause a further slight advance in the rate of dis count, holders of money evince a disposition to charge protective rates. Good bills having more than a month to run can scarcely be placed at 3 per cent,, while for three months' paper the charge is above the Bank minimum. A similar indisposi tion to enter into long engagements, unless at a proportionate advance in terms, is shown in the Stock Exchange, where only 12 per cent. is required for loans on Government securities from day to day, while for a month 2i, or 21 is asked. At Paris to-day the Three per Cent. Rentes opened at 68.95 ex div., and closed at 69 for money, and 69.05 for the account, showing a rise of to per cent. since Saturday afternoon. The fortnightly settlement in shares and foreign stocks will commence on Wednesday (" continua tion" day) and terminate on Friday. A telegram from Revel, dated June 8, mentions the stranding on Neckmann's Ground of the steamer Trent, Captain Brown, bound from Hull to Cron stadt with goods. One compartment and the en gine room were filled with water. The crew and passengers were saved. _ _ _ The American news has caused a fresh rise of id. to id. per lb. in the price of cotton at Liverpool to day. The transactions were considerable, reaching 10,000 bales. The rise in the American exchange and in the premium on gold at New York is partly occa sioned by the demand for remittance against realisation of securities by English holders. The holders of Moorish bonds will be glad to learn that the funds required for the interest and sinking fund due August Ist are furnished without the necessity of having recourse, in any way, to the customs revenues specially hypothecated to the loan. It has before bee❑ pointed out that Moroclo occupies an exceptional position amongst foreign States, inasmuch as she has no debt and no stand ing army. The bonds have been dealt in to-day as high as 921, being equal to 71 prem on the issue price, and are now so completely absorbed by in vestors that it is difficult to effect a purehase even of small amount. 100,000 sovereigns were taken from the Bank to day for transmission to Constantinople, and a fur ther total of 200,000 is expected to be withdrawn to-morrow. £200,000 in Russian imperials, part of the £600,000 recently bought by Messrs. Rothschild for transmission to St. Petersburg, was taken from the Bank to-day, but was paid for by a like amount in bar gold. _ . The limited amount of bar silver brought by the Mexican packet has been sold at 64d. per oz., being an advance of l i d. as compared with the last arrival, but a decline of -}d. from the rate lately realised. The dollars,which constitute the bulk of the arrival, are not yet disposed of. The next instalment of 15 per cent. on the Egyp tian loan of £2,195,200 becomes due to-morrow. This will make 45 per cent. paid out of the contract price of 821. Subs3riberst will at the same time continue to have the option of paying up in full and being allowed 7 per cent. discount. CITY NEWS---THIS DAY . CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. Business in the Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets has continued very inactive owing to the absence of many of the principal dealers during the - Whitsuntide holidays. In the private market there hao been a fair inquiry for tea, at full rates. Sugars have continued dull, and coffee, rice, and spices are nominally at previous quotations. Salt petre has declined 2s. to 2s. 6d. per cwt. ; but tallow has continued rather active, at 465. 6d. per cwt. on the spot, and 48s. 9d. to 495. for last three months' delivery.

The annual meeting of the Bank of British North America took place to-day. Mr. Robert Carter in the chair. The report stated that the profits for the year amounted to £61,212 4s id. Out of which amount the directors have declared a half- , yearly dividend, payable on and after th e 6 t h J uly next, at the rate of 6 per cent. per annum, free of i ncome -tax ; leaving the sum of £1,212 4s ld to be :added to the rest or balance of undivided p which, including this addition, 7s a mounted, on 3ofilst, t December, 186 1 , to £126,978 ld, after providing for the dividend tha t was paid in January last. The Chairman, who moved the ,a d o ption of the re port, remarked that he was prepared to hear great e s hareholders at disappointment expressed by the small dividend proposed to be paid in spite of bank the the favourable business transactions of , during the past year. This circu mstance had arisen from the directors having to provide for bad debts which had accrued during the distres s of the year 1857. It was stated that the amount placed to the debit of the reserve fund for bad and doubtful debts was £20,000 ; the sum taken from the profits of last year to the credit of that fund, £24,000 ; the amount considered requisite to cover the contin genci , ,:s of last year's business, £7,000. The report was adopted, and the retiring directors re-elected. Extreme quietude has pervaded the Stock-Ex. change Market to-day, the settlement of the account in Consols having occupied exclusive attention. The Funds are 91-7,- for money, and 92 I for the 10th proximo. The New Threes and the Reduced are Itt at 911 a ; Exchequer Bills have receded to 4s. prem. ; Bank Stock is 2341 and 236; India ditto, 231 ; and ditto 5 per Cent., 1077; In the Foreign Market business is dull, and prices show very little change. Turkish 6 per Cents. are 821 a ; ditto 1858, 70 • ditto New Scrip ,2 remain at 3 prem. ; Egyptian, at 11 3 i prem. ; .Mexican, at 311,-; Russian 5 per Cents. are fiat, at 97; ditto New Scrip is nominally 4 1 prem. ; and Spanish Certificates are heavy, at 81 to 99 ; Italiau have improved to 728 t. The Committee of the Stock Exchange have appointed the following sitting days, viz. :—The 12th inst. for Brazilian Bank,Westminster Brewery, Northern Counties Bank, and in the Don Pedro North Del Rey Gold Mining, and Monday, the 16th in the Bombay Gas Company. In the Railway Share Market business has con tinued exceedingly dull, and the variations have barely exceeded per cent. North Eastern (Ber wick), Midlands, and Lancashire and Yorkshire have improved 55., and South Easterns 10s. The Foreign and Colonial lines also remained very inactive. South Austrian and Lombardo-Venetian, however, have improved to 22! /, Cape Town and Dock to 107, and Great Indian Peninsula are steady at 104 i 105. Joint Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares gene rally support former prices. London and County, however, have receded to 37i, and National Pro vincial of England have improved to 131 k.

GENERAL MEETING—(THIS DAY), The fourteenth ordinary general meeting of the directors and shareholders in this company was held this day at the 19. London Tavern, for the purpose of receiving the directors' report, and re-election of the retiring officers. Mr. Farquhar, chairman of the board, presided. The report, which has already appeared in The Sam, having been taken as read, The CHAIRMAN rose to move its adoption. He said the directors had thought it would be unwise to attempt to get up a e linter attraction to the Industrial Exhibition, the expense of which had, he thought, been wisely laid out in putting their own building into the most thorough repair, intending to rely on the attraction it presented. The great number of foreigners expected to visit this country in the autumn would, he had no doubt, visit the Crystal Palace at Sydenham. Yesterday, notwithstanding the attraction at Kensington, the number of visitors was greater than those of the corresponding day of last year. The Handel Festival, it was confidently expected, would result in a great success, and at the end of the financial year the directors confidently ex pected they would be able to declare a good andincreased divi dend. Before he formally moved the adoption of the report, he would allude to one portion of it, which was of a very disagreeable nature, viz., the determination of the directors to remove one of their body on account of certain allega tions made against him. The charges were founded on a case in which Mr. England was concerned, and which was reported in the papers in April last, The Times and other newspapers had called attention to the subject, but the matter referred solely to the domestic character and per sonal conduct of Mr. England, and had nothing whatever to do with him in his office of director in this or any other company. It the shareholders did not confirm the decision of the board, he and the other eight directors who were associated with him in repudiating Mr. England's conduct . must part company, becau e if such conduct was tolerated in a public company it would give a stamp of genuineness to the rumour that anything was goad enough for a public company. Mr. ANDERSON seconded the motion for the adoption of the report. Mr. ENGLAND said there was no connection between his private affairs and his duties as a director of this company. He had effected great reforms in the company, and had brought about the payment of a dividend. He had thus, he had no doubt, made many enemies, who were now seek ing to remove him from his seat at the board. If this had been a genuine expression of opinion on the part of his col leagues, he should bow to it at once. He had got rid of several superintendents out of the company, and the chair man said that it he succeeded in getting rid of Mr. Bowley or Mr. Grove, he would get rid of him (the chairman). He did not wish to interfere with any active officers, but there were many drones in the hive who ought to be got rid of, and hence the opposition to him. There was a jealousy on the part of the directors that he was obtaining too much influence in the company. [We shall continue the report in our late edition.] SHIPPING - THIS DAY.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET. ASSAULT ON A LICENSED VICTUALLER, AND WILFUL DAMAGE.—William Farmer, a rough-looking fellow, was charged with assaulting, while drunk, Mr. Thos. Swallow, of the Coffeehouse Tavern, Silver-street, Golden-square, and also with smashing a p ane of glass of the value of 305., and breaking a watch chain. Mr. Swallow said the prisoner came into his house the previous evening about eight and pushed against two females who were taking wine. He told the prisoner that as he had not been served he had better leave, and then went round the counter to put the prisoner out, when he seized and struck him (Mr. Swallow) several times, and broke a pane of glass of the value of 30s. The prisoner also broke his watch chain and had his watch in his pocket, and at first would not give it up. Weeks, 155 C, said he was called to the house to take prisoner into custody for stealing Mr. Swallow's watch, but at the station Mr. Swallow said as the prisoner was drunk he would only charge him with the assault and damage. Mr. Swallow said he did not think the prisoner meant to steal his watch. Mr. Tyiwhitt said he had no doubt Mr. Swallow would be satisfied if the prisoner paid the damage, and in de fault of his doing so he would be committed for two months. MURDEROUS ASSAULT BY A CRIPPLE.—James Tobin, a lame man, walking with a thick stick, was charged with the following savage assault on Patrick Driscoll. The complainant went into a publichouse—the Crown, High-street - and the prisoner, who was there when he went in, called him a dog. On the complainant asking what he said the prisoner took up a thick stick he walked with, being lame, and struck the complainant a violent blow on the head, inflicting a severe wound on his forehead and deluging him with blood. The complainant was then taken to the Charing-cross Hospital, where he had his head dressed, having lost a large quantity of blood, and he was even while in court very weak from the effects of the blow. A constable produced - the stick—a formidable weapon is the hands of a savage fellow. The prisoner produced an Irish witness, who said the prisoner did tap the complainant's head lightly. Mr. Tyrwhitt—What you call " tinderly." (Laughter.) The prisoner must pay 40s. or a month. THE CASE OF MRS. FIELD.—XS, the donation of It. G., was received by the magistrate for Mrs. Field, the wife of a cabdriver who was killed in an affray a few days ago by another cabdriver. The poor widow is left with six. children dependent on her, one of them being afflicted with a spinal complaint, and she being herself in bad health. THAMES, STEALING GOODS ON TRANSIT.—THIEVES AND RE CEIVERS.—Edward Ballard, aged 21, Ribhard Odd, 14, Joseph Shea, 32, Caroline Shea, 30, and Thomas Halliday, 46, were brought before Mr. Woolrych, charged, the two first with stealing a large quantity of wool, the property of Mr. Joseph Hornby Baxendale, trading as " Pickford and C 0.," their employer and master ; and the other three with receiving the property, well knowing the same to be stolen. Mr. Gomm, articled clerk to Mr. John Hodgson, solici tor, of Arbour-square, Stepney, defended the Sheas and Halliday. This prosecution was instituted by Mr. John Gale, superintendent and manager of the goods department at the Haydon-squere Railway Station, Minories. The prisoners Ballard and Odd went to the East India Dock on Saturday last with a waggon 4ncl horses . to fetch a load of wo ol con signed ib a firm in the city. On the way from the East India dock fo the city a bale of wool was ripped open by Ballard and Odd, 26 lbs. of wool taken out and sold at the shop of the ,Sheas in Great Alie street, Whitechapel. In consequence of the early closing of the establishment in the city to which the load of wool was consigned, it was removed to Pickford and Co.'s warehouses in the City .road, the Haydon-square depot being full of goods. Mr. Gale examined the load consisting of 20 bales of wool, and found one had been ripped open. The boy Odd afterwards made a full confession to Mr. Gale, who held out no promise to him. Odd was ordered to leave the dock and was sworn as a witness. He said Ballard was the driver of the van from the East India dock to the City-road on Saturday. They ripped open a bale and took some of the wool out. The horses and van were stopped near the marine stere-dealer's shop, and Ballard gave him the wool they had stolen. It was concealed in a corn bag. He carried it into Shea's shop, and saw Halliday there. The wool was weighed by Halliday, who called out 21lbs ; one pound was allowed for the corn bag. He received 10s., or 6d. per lb. for the wool. He gave Ballard ss. of the money. The van and horses were stopped opposite the Minories while he was selling the wool. On cross-examination by Mr. Gomm, Odd said it was about 7in the evening when he sold the wool. Mrs. Shea was in the parlour behind the shop, and gave Halli day the money when he called out the weight. Patrick Geraghty and Daniel Davey, police constables of the H division, stated that they searched Shea's marine store shop yesterday, and found the package of stolen wool and 4501b5. of other wool, of which Mr. and Mrs. Shea and Halliday could give no satisfactory account. They believed the whole of the wool was stolen, and had been taken out of bales while in transit between the docks and the City, In answer to questions by Mr. Woolrych, the constables said that both Mr. and Mrs. Shea denied there was any , wool in the house in Great Alie-street before they made the search. Mr. Gala—The stolen wool producad, for which the boy was paid 6i. per lb., is worth ls. Bd. per lb. It is beauti ful wool. Mr. Gomm would not deny that Mrs. Shea and her ser vant Halliday were in the shop on Saturday, but Mr. Shea, who had another and larger establishment at Stratford, was not in Great Mill-street the whole of Saturday until ten o'clock at night. Mr. Woolrych—For the present I shall hold Joseph Shea responsible es well as his wife. How do they account for the wool found in their shop ? Geraghty and Davey believed they could find owners for all the wool, which they valued at £35. Mr. Woolrych—A portion of it, purchased at 6d. per lb., less than a third of its value, is already identified. I shall remand Shea and his wife, Halliday, and Ballard, for a week. Mr. Gomm offered bail for Mr. and Mrs. Shea, and said the latter was far advanced in pregnancy, and very ill. Mr. Woolrych—l will take substantial bail, two sureties of £6O each, for each of them, with notice. It must be very good bail. MURDER AND SUICIDE. A terrible drama has beer. enacted in the neiah boarhood of Rothwell , near Leeds, involvin g (as is supposed) a case of child murder and the suicide of the mother, a young girl, aged 18, named Jane Taylor, the daughter of parents residing at Wake field, who bore a reputable character, and has for some time past been a domestic servant in the house hold of Mr. John 'Wilson, cornfactor, Doncaster road, Wakefield. The young yeoman had an aunt named Hopton residing at Rothwell; and last Sun day being Rothwell feast, she and her brother, Joseph Taylor, went to visit the aunt. There was nothing in the conduct of the young woman which attracted the attention of her relatives, except that she complained of " tic," and was a quarter of an hour in the privy, on her returning from whence she took a shovel to cover up some vomit, alleging that she had been sick. About eight o'clock the brother and sister returned to Wakefield, and shortly after, in a hedge on a road over wnich they would pass, a man named George Crossland found a newly-born male child, which was then alive. He gave it to policeman Atkinson, and, inquiries being set on foot, Mrs. Hopton sent her daughter to Wakefield to see if all was right with Jane, and she retuned with the answer that all was right except a r little headache. Soon after her cousin lett the young woman left Mr. Wilson's house, and was never again seen until her body was found on Friday morning in a pond belonging to Col. Smyth, M.P., at Heath, near Wakefield. The circumstances which led to the suspicion that this unfortunate woman is the mother of the child are very strong, and are supported by discoveries made in the privy, and by a piece of flannel found near it which corresponds with the piece of flannel in which the child was wra pp ed. The two pieces make one garment which it is known belonged to the deceased girl. There was no suspicion that she was enciente. Lie brother of the young on bail. womt!. was taken into custody, but released There seems to be nothing in his conduct at all sus picious. THE MOORS AND FollESTS.—The reports as to t h e e xtensive and valu the condition of the g rouse from all able ranges in Perth and Argyle shires continue to be cheering and promising. The recent heavy falls of r a i n upon the hills have been somewhat against the young broods and hatching, but a few days' genial sunshine and reeling winds will remedy this temporary damage. The nests are plentiful and well filled. In some parts of Aber deenshire disease is said to have made some havoc a , the birds, and the prospects are very desponding rpinyoni not the case in the shires of Perth and Argyle. On all is th -s e ranges in Rob Roy's country, around " Glenartney's hazel shade" and Lochearn, tho banks of the Garry and the Tummel, and around Schielhallion and the moors of Brea and apparently Brea dalbane, and aroun d Loch Katrine, the crop is to be very sup erior both as regards condition abun dance. A large number of the moors have been let, in setne cases at increased rents, and for those still in the mar ket there 1.7 likely to be a keen competition, from the num ber of inquirers after shooting grounds. From the forests eh th e accounts are equally and satisfactory. The gra ss in all the glens and a corries was early, rich, and a bundant, and the antlered tribe nng forward condition. So much so isthis se the h c consequently n e s a e s q y in e u that l many a of the deer in the forests of Gleuartney and Breadalbane, 49.:c., are expected to be free from velvet during the month of August. —Scotsman. 14.61 3.0.0 7.10.0,561 17s 6.15.0 8.12 4.14 1.14. 4.3.0 2 12.3 2.3 0 2,2.9 1i 10.6.7 5.11.6! 18.1' 4 .1 j 28.9. 431 17fi S lbg 255 j 8 SPORTING INTELL GENCL, TATTERSALLS'—YESTERDAY.

THE ALL ENGLAND ELEVEN v. THE UNITED ALL ENGLAND ELEVEN.—FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE CRICKETERS' FUND. The lovers of cricket, from all parts, were attracted to Lord's Ground yesterday, to witness this annual match between the first-rate professionals of the game. From between 5,000 and 6,000 persons were present on the ground, upwards of 5,000 paying at the gate. Some slight altera tion was made in the list of the All England Eleven, G. Anderson and J. Thewlis being substituted for G. Parr and R. C. Tinley, who were incapacitated from injuries received in previous matches. The ground was in excel lent condition (rather lively), and at about twelve o'clock the United Eleven, having won the toss, took possession of the wickets by sending in Mortlock and Bennett, Jackson and Willsher being the bowl« ra. Mortlock was caught after making four, and was succeeded by Carpenter, who lost his companion for three. Carpenter made an able defence, and lost the company of four for small figures, when Lockyer faced him, and runs were rapidly made by both, causing a change in the bowling, Hayward relieving Jackson of the ball. For some time no effect took place, at length, however, Lockyer gave a chance to Caesar, at "point," who availed himself of it. Lockyer's score of 21 was not long being made : it comprised a five (drive), a i four, and two twos. No other double figures were made, and Carpenter carried his bat out with a brilliant innings of 68, amidst much applause ; in it were five fours, three threes, and three twos. The fielding in every respect was very good indeed. The wickets fell thus :—One for 8, two for 16, three for 31, four for 36, five for 41, six for 63, seven for 106, eight for 108, nine for 117, ten for 126. For All England, J. Rowbotham and J. Thewlis (two debu tants at this ground) commenced the batting, and played well against the fine bowling of Caffyn and Atkinson. Rowbotham scored 15 and Thewlis 5. Daft was the third man, and was joined by Hayward, and some good batting ensued ; the latter, however, was cleverly caught by Wis den, after adding 15, made by a four, a three, a two, and singles. At this time (quarter to seven) a heavy shower of rain came on, and play was stopped for the day, the state of the score being as under : UNITED ELEVEN. W. Mortlock, o Hayward, b T.

A special meeting of the proprietors of this company was held this day at the London Tavern, for the purpose of considering and determining upon the exercise of the powers conferred by the London and Biackwall Railway Net, 1862, with reference to the raising of capital, and. the cancelling shares created under the powers of the London and Black wall Railway Act, 1860, and the creation of new shares in lieu thereof ; and to consider and determine upon the pre ferential, fixed, fluctuating, contingent, perpetual, or ter minable dividend, and such other privileges or restrictions as the company may think fit to be attached to such new shares, and also to any preference shares into which any ordinary shares created under the Act of 1860 may be con- vetted. At a meeting of the : proprietors, in August, 1850, it was resolved to create 46,154 shares of £6 10s. each, for the pur pose of raising the 1100,000 capital, authotiyed by " The London and Blackwall Railway Act, 1860." Of those shares, 21,735, representing £160,777 lOs , were taken up by the proprietors, and 21,419 shares, representing £139,223. 10s., remain unissued. It was nposad at the present meeting to cancel the 21,419 shame lot issued, and to create in lieu thereof the same number of shares of a 10s. each, and to attach to such shares a preferential per petual dividend at the rate of £4 lOs. per cent. per annum on the ailioant for the time being paid up. The CHAIRMAN briefly moved resolutions carrying out the recommendations of the directors, at the same time ex pressing an opinion that the new shares would be readily taken up. The resolutions were agreed to unanimously. ek ce t tne i tickets fet that have t the notice. ys e m e neifysoma of the issued the by circum stance t h ceoo t i nt a T pp h laa e nwi ny m otu o h : laad e vnehd i n al iovtn w ewg h ba i eb e se h eneex t h ntpa e a source o f inconvenience r y and asse mbled shareholders, as yesterday rangement which was made for the accommodation of the holiday folk was considered to be an improvement on th e pl an. By the mode, which has for years been in operation, a ll pas sengers, first and second (which includes third class) male and female, have to pass through a narrow barrier placed in front of the centre of three windows, to the imminent risk of their dresses and pockets, to procure their tickets. The directors most certainly ought to have had some conside ration for ladies who are willing to pay first- class fares, and not compel them to lass pell-mell through the narrow way between a number of gigantic navvies on the way to work on the main drainage operations, especially as their language is not always fit for ears polite, or the perfume of their garments redolent of lavender. Yesterday the two side tieket windows were opened in place of the middle one, and the obtaining of the requisite bits of pasteboard WAS a matter easy of accomplishment. If the sew arrangement is to be made permanent, all that will be required is to fiz one of the windows for the issue of first, and the other fa second-class passengers, and to erect a slight partition between the two, so that each class will have that which they pay for, viz., good and sufficient accommodation.l--.

FISHING IN FINLAND.—In autumn, when the frost begins to set in, and the ice is most transparent, the fisherman courses along the rivers with a wooden club or mallet in his hand, and when he observes a fish under the ice in shallow water, he strikes a vi olent blow perpen dicularly above it, which at once breaks the ice and stuns the fish, so that, he easily seizes it with an instrument made for the purpose. THE FEN DISTRICT. —A day's travel through the southernmost part of Lincolnshire, or the northernmost of Cambridgeshire, is an event to be remembered by anyone who carries in his head the history of the region. The substantial homesteads, the full stackyards, the thick and wholesome pasture, the sleek cattle, the golden corn-fields in August, the splendid root-crops in autumn, t h © clean seed-fields in spring ; the capital roads, the clear ditch.es, and the strong embankments and canal works ; and at in tervals the thriving villages with their gardens and . orchards, and the tidy towns, with their commercial navigation—these features present a contrast with ancient days most interest ing and exhilarating to an observer who knows enough to understand what he sees. —Ono a- Week. SHEFFIELD CEMETERY DISCLOSURES. Isaac Howard, the sexton of St. Philip's burial ground, was apprehended yesterday morning at the Red Lion Hotel, Masborough, by detective-officers Airey and Bray shaw. He had sent word to the police of hi 3 intention to come to Sheffield by the first train from the South yesterday morning, having been staying at Bakewell and Derby since the riots. The officers went to meet him at th:! station, but he did not arrive by the early train, in consequence of having been accidentally detained at Eckington. Subsequently, hearing that he had arrived at Masborough by a late train, Airey and Brayshaw went to search the public-houses there, and found him at the Red Lion. He came volun tarily with them to Sheffield, supposing they had merely come to protect him from any violence that might be offered on the way. They, however, held a warrant for his appre hension, issued by the magistrates at the termination of the inquiry on Saturday. Howard appeared before the magistrates in support of the application for compensation for the damage done to his house, and Detective• officer Brayshaw then produced the warrant, and applied to the bench to remand the prisoner on a charge of having illege.ily removed the remains of a child of William &leer man, of Philadelphia. Howard seemed much sur prised at the application,not having been previously aware that be was in custody. Mr. Broadbent applied on his behalf to the magistrates to admit him to bail, but they declined to do so, Mr. A. Smith remarking that that was quite out of the question, as it was at present impossible to say what charges might arise against the prisoner. Howard was therefore remanded until Friday next. He was evidently very nervous and excited, Howard claimed £l6O for damages to his house, £2OO damages to his furniture, and £l6 for money which was in the house. Mr. Livesey applied for leave to prove damage amounting to £2B to the freehold of the cemetery ant buildings, and £l7 is. 6d, for damage to the furniture, books, &c., in the vestry., The applications were formally taken, placing both Howard and Mr. Livesey in a position to bring actions against the oounty for recovery of the 16 damage. THE GREAT BEDFORD LEVEL. Every sovereign seems to have been anxious about the Fens, and to have encouraged attempts to make them secure. The first comprehensive endeavour to unite embankment and drainage for the whole morass, without partiality towards separate inte rests, was a century after the Martimas gale I have spoken of. The works, costly and extensive, were swept away within a year of their being fin isbed ; and many then advised that the who le thing should be given up as hopeless. In the reign of Henry VII., Bishop Moreton made a n ew cut, which is now a part of the river Nene: but the b a nks crumbled down. So did other ban ks in the time of Elizabeth, and of James I. In the next reign, the enterprise was begun which introduced a new period in the history of the Fens. The Earl . of Bedford, in the He induced some reign of Charles 1., was grieved to see Thorney effort to reclaim the Abbey on its hillock, surrounded by shallow waters j?o f in. 18 11 ,0 i 0 m 0 in acr a e n s. whole region. His particular aim was to retrieve his own lordship of Thorney but his part ners must have their inducements also, The demand was that they should them 95,000 acresof have among d. reclaimed land, in re turn for their expen se £lOO,OOO in three years an d risk. They spent number of accomplished l a great works which an soon as they were finished.crumb.e . d down almost as During the civil wars of , the peri o d, i t was a common pract i ce for e i t h er party to cut the dyk es w h en th e y c o u ld hurt their enemies thereby ; and during the Commonwealth, the whole tract lay as desolate as ever. At length, the son of that Earl of Bedford took up the project again, on the same terms that had been granted to his father. He and his partners succeeded so far as to obtain their 95,000 acres ; but they had spent more meantime than the land was worth. The most conspicuous sign of progress was, that an or3anit,a tion was now formed for the preservation of the works. By a charter of Charles ll.'s granting, a corporation of conservators of the Bedford Level was appointed, and endowed with due powers —the king appropriating for himself 12,000 a cres of tho 95,000. For more than a century and a half there I were small successes, and occasional great disasters, owing chiefly to the mistake of making a great number of small channel islands, where there was not slope enough for little streams to flow away, instead of a few large chan nels where the force of a scanty in gathered waters would compensate fo f r th exis, .n cline. At last, within the. memory ffe o ctual e clr g generation, the true principles of . e egnage and the retrieval were proposed and acted upon , of the Fen count r y has been a matter of pride t o th e whole kingdom for 30 years. —6nee a TVeek,. When Normans and Saxons had hf. , *!ome one in Eng l an d, the Fen district presented a changed people aspec t once more. The swamps and innum era bl e c h anne l s anti mudbanks had, for the most part, disappeared ; and the waters were gathered into lakes and rivers of sufficient d e pth to render the intervening soil solid and dry. In the time of Stephen and Henry 11. the beauty of the region was extolled. There were pastures and cornfields as well as lakes, and woods with lofty trees. There were not only blossoming orcharde, but no waste lands anywhere ; and, as for the settlements in the reclaimed lands, each one had a church so beautiful that that part of our island became famous for them. If we, in our day, are proud of th e Lincolnshire and C am b r id ges hi re a nd Norfolk shurrchflense,--ly so large and no bl e , w ith their crocketed spire s o proportioned steeples—what must our forefathers IFok h ave country been eight centuries ago?
