T.Piper, trading as Messrs. Iper an d C o., o f Bi s h opsga t e - s t rec t an d Pimlico, h as been announced, and the liquidation, it is be lieved, will be favourable. An accurate account of the debts and liabilities has not yet been pre- Pared. Messrs.

T he latter quotation is therefore the highest now allowed for temporary loans. The other discount houses have not followed the same course, but re fuse to take f res h d e p os it s un d er 2f. It i s p ro b a bl e, h owever, that the present excess of floating capital, caused chiefly by the distribution of the dividends, Wlll Soon be absorbed by the repayment of advances to the Bank and the ordinary requirements of the trade of the country. The establishment of more harmonious arrange mentso for th e i n t erc h ange o f tra ffi c b etween t h e South Eastern and London, Brighton and South Coast Railway Companies, is indicated by the aPPearance of an official notice that, from the Ist of Febr uary next, return and season tickets be tween Loudon and a numbe r o f o th er s t a ti ons ' will be available by the trains, and to and from an y of the Lo n d on s t a ti ons, o f e i t h er company, in cluding Charing-cross,Victoria, Cannon-street, &c."

The engines of the Hercules, armoured iron fri gate, of the nominal power of 4,250-horse, and manufactured by Messrs. John Penn and Son, ex hibited at the recent trial of the ship over the mea sured mile off Portsmouth an indicated power ex ceeding 8,500-horse, the greatest proportion of indicated to nominal power ever yet attained. The Hercules is ordered to make a six hours' trial at sea under similar conditions to those imposed upon the trials of the Minotaur, Warrior, and Belle rophon. The Orontes, troopship, 3,812 tons, 500-horse power, has been commissioned at Portsmouth, by Capt. Henry Phelps, and is being hurried forward as rapidly as possible, her services being urgently required. Capt. Phelps commanded the Orontes for same time before the eose of her last commis sion. tier former paymaster an I several other officers formerly serving in her under Capt. Phelps have also been reappointed to her. The liriyal yacht Victoria and Albert, in dock at Portsmouth for a thorough overhaul and repair to hull and machinery, will not, it h stated, be ready for her Majesty's service again before the spring► of 1870. Under these circumstances, it is considered probable that Mr. Childers may decide, as a mea sure of economy, on paying her out of commission. The screw frigate Sutlej, which is unarmoured and woolen, is now having the last piece of her machinery taken out alongside Portsmouth dock yard, preparatory to being taken into the breaking up dock. It was only in October, 1860, that the Sutlej made her first speed trial as a new ship over the measured mile in Stoke's Bay, when she at tained a mean rate of speed of 13.076 knots per hour. She was then considered one of the hand somest and swiftest ships afloat. She is now a strik ing illustration of the short life and costliness of a wooden-built ship of war. Her Majesty's ironclad turret-ship Monarch, 6, 5,100 tons, 1,100-horse power, now completing for sea in the Medway off Chatham, is orderei to be taken to Sheerness on Thursday next for a prelimi nary trial of her engines at the measured mile off Maplin Sands. MADAME RACHEL. The Telegraph says :—" The further proceedings in the case of Madame Rachel will, it is understood, be under the auspices of the law officers of the Crown. It can scarcely be expected that Mrs. Borrodaile should incur the ex pense consequent on the argument of the writ of error in the Queen's Bench, and the Treasury has accord ingly undertaken the responsibility. The next step is the assignment of error by Madame Rachel; but whether error will ever be assigned at all remains to be As matters stand, Madame Rachel has the power— and it is said that she has also the intention—to re open her establishment in Bond-street, and again offer to a criminating public the "dew distilled from the magnetic rock in the Desert of Sahara " which so miraculously restores female beauty. Should the conviction be quashed, how ever, the indictment on the file of the Central Criminal Court will, in point of law, remain still undetermined, and she may have again to take her trial. seen. A SAD TALE. An extraordinary story is told by the Liverpool papers. About ten o'clock on Saturday morning the body of a lady was found in a brickfield. The body was turned with the face downwards amidst the clay and water, and was so firmly imbedded that it was with difficulty it could be got out. It was removed to the Liverpool deadhouse, where there were found upon it two bruises—one on the forehead, and the other under the left jaw. The body was that of a woman, who appeared to be about 40 years of age. The body has been identified as that of Mrs. Clara Jane Linde, who resided at 25, Onslow - road, Elm Park. She was last seen on Friday night about ten o'clock with a young man who lodged in her house. They were then in Kensington, and the young man says that the deceased left him to speak to some one, and he did not see her afterwards. As she had on her person when found a gold chain, rings, and other valuables, the supposition that she had been decoyed into the field for the purpose of robbery seems improbable. The report that a murder had been committed was very rife, but the police found no other footmarks near the spot except those of the deceased, who is a widow possessed of £3OO or £4OO a year. The person referred to as a lodger is connected with very respectable families in Liverpool, but has "come down in the world," and is now in the employ of one of the omnibus companies. The inquest has not been held. THE WEATHER TABLE.-THIS DAY. METEOEOLOGICA L BITCII7B. Extreme Sea Wednesday, F. 0 Jan. 13, B. T. l u W. ato F.

A decrease has occurred at the entrance of the Channel and on the French coast, but in Scotland there has been a slight recovery. Readings are very uniform. Temperature is not much altered. Winds on the southern coasts and the W. of France have again drawn to the south-eastward ; but are fresh to strong from south in Ireland, and light from S. to S.W. elsewhere. The sky continues overcast, with misty weather. The sea is high at Valencia. With regard to the Norwich murder, it is now announced that the remains, preserved in spirits of wine, at the Guildhall, Norwich, were disinterred this morning for further medical examination. The prisoner's solicitor was present at the disinterment. The inhabit tnts of some villages in Suffolk were the other day startled from their proprit ty by a shock re sembling that of an earthquake. Various descriptions have been given of the occurrence which differ in detail, but no doubt seems to exist as to the nature of the disturbance which took place. The Echo is enabled to state that the Prince of Wales has abandoned his intention of visiting Athens, owin g to the political prospect. After leaving Vienna he will proceed via Trieste to Alexandria, where, among other per sons, the Royal party will be joined by Dr. W. H. Russell and Professor O'wen. We regret to find that another death has resulted from the colliery accident at Rainford, leaving only ene Sur. vivor of the seven men who were burned last Thursday. The inquest on the six bodies was opened on Thursday, but as it was stated that it might be several months before the bodies of the two men who fell down the shaft could be re covered and the workings examined, the inquest was ad journed for a month. The ?Manchester Courier notes that a Liverpool teetotal lecturer has somewhat marred the effect of his teaching by certain predilections which have resulted in Lis committal by the Birkenhead police magistrate. lie was so convinced of the excellence of matrimony that he married two wives, and thus commttted bigamy ; his search after divine truth was so energetic that he stole a Bible; and in the interests of punctuality be appropriated a watch. These were the charges, and the magistrate thought the evidence justified committal. 'the man pleaded his re spectability, and an acquaintance with a number of Parlia ment, but these did not avail him. The Dublin Evening Post reports that three privates of the 66th Regiment, who were on Sunday nigh on guard duty at Richmond Barracks, were found on Monday morning to have deserted during the night. What renders the desertion rather sus picious is the fact that the three men took with them their arms, accoutrements, and a quantity of ammunition, No trace of their whereabouts has yet been obtained Ca 4, tort HER MAJESTY.

CHARGE OF WILFUL 311;111/ZR. George Campbell, 23, uphitlsterer, was indicted for the wiful murder of John Moir. The facts gef this melancholy case h;ive so recently been published in extenso that it nee I on the pre scut occasion only be stated that the prisoner and deceased were present at a Christmas party at the residence of a young Turku named Wotherspooc, in Alfred-street, Barnesbury, when some trivial dis pute induced the prisoner to reach down a rifle, which was hanging up in the room, and after leaving the room with it, he returned, put it up to his shoulder, and on deceased asking him what he was going to do, he replied, " I'm going to put out the light." The gun went off instan taneously, and the deceased fell to the ground dead. • Mr. Digby Seymour, Q.C., and Mr. W. P. M'Donald defended the prisoner, and examined all the witnesses with a desire to show that the event was purely accidental, that the prisoner merely in tended to perform the common trick of putting out the light by the exploding a percussion cap, and that he had no knowledge that the rifle was loaded. We shall give the conclusion in our late edition. NEW COURT. THE SHOEMAKERS' STRIKE. Benjamin Shepherd, Joseph Brain, Alfred Cook, William Emmett, sen., and William Emmett, jun., were indicted for unlawfully conspiring to cause certain persons to depart from their trade and employment. The prisoners, it will be recollected, attempted to induce certain workmen entering the employment of Mr. Glew, in the City-road, during the shoe makers' strike. The jury returned a verdict of not guilty. THIRD COURT. The continuance of the trial of Mr. Adolphe Ellison, who was indicted with publishing a false and defamatory libel upon certain of the directors of the Ottoman Railway Company (Smyrna to Aiden), was postponed until to-morrow morning. POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day. MARLBOROUGH- STREET. TWENIt-TWO . CONVICTIONS AGAINST A MAN.— George Pons, a thick-set fellow, was brought be fore Mr. Tyrwhitt for final examination, charged with being concerned with others not in custody in assaulting and robbing a gentleman named George John Millett, residing at No. 23, Wells-street, Oxford-street, of a watch and chain, of the value of £.15. The prosecutor was standing at his street door and feeling for his latch key, when the prisoner and others walked up to him and knocked him down, and on gett ng up he missed his watch and chain, of the value of £l5. A young woman proved seeing the prosecutor knocked down into the gutter, and seeing the pri soners who attacked him run away. She afterwards identified the prisoner as one of the persons en gaged in the affair. Clarke, 160 E, proved taking the prisoner into custody from a description received of him. Herbert Reeves, a warder at the House of Cor rection, Coldbath-fields, and Sergeant Ch tpple, 4 F, proved that the prisoner had been convicted 22 times for different offences, principally for felo nies and assaults, and on one occasion being sen tenced to two years' imprisonment for assaulting the police. The prisoner reserved his defenc:„ at the same time stating that lie w•as innocent of the present charge. Tyrwhitt committed him for trial, and said he hoped the young woman who had given evidence would be cared for, as he had no doubt she would be molested by the prisoner's friends, and if she was he hoped he would be sitting when the persons were brought to the Court, as he would know what to do with them. 100 103 69 71 COLOinaL GOVEIMMICNT SECUILITIE6 am British Columbia, 6 per 0ent.,1672......... ..... 100 • uo. 1895 lO9 ..

Mr. Francis, of 5, Great College-street, West minster, said that at half-past six last evening he was in his front parlour, when he heard a motion of the handle of the door, and on opening it found to his surprise that prisoner had by some means got into the house, and was stand ing in the passage. Ile asked the prisoner what he was doing there, when he replied that he had come in with the " kind" intention of telling him that he hal seen some one enter his house. Prosecutor kept him, and sent for a police-cou stable. A detective npmed Kosb, of the B division, said that when he was called to take the prisoner he ap peared as though going willingly, but suddenly made a desperate attempt to escape by trip ping witness up, and then suddenly rush ing across the road under a horse's legs. Witness followed in the same direction, and re captured him, when be was again shook off, and prisoner started away a second time, but was stopped by a gentleman and finally lodged in the station. On searching his lodgings house-breaking implements were found and some trifling articles. These were identified by a woman, who said that they were stolen from her house two nights before. Prisoner was remanded. THAMES. ROBBERIES IN TIIE LONDON DOCK.—Henry Sten nett and Daniel Lay, labourers, were brought be fore Mr. Benson, charged with stealing 271bs. of lead. Some new sheds are being erected in the London Dock, under the direction of Mr. Cubitt, the builder, and the prisoners were employed by that gentleman. Yesterday they were stopped on leav ing the dock and searched by two constables. There was a breastplate of sheet lead in front of Sten nett's person. It weighed 181bs. There was a quantity of sheet-lead upon Lay. It was fastened round his ancles and legs, and weighed 9lbs. Some new sheet-lead was found in a place where the pri soners had been at work. The prisoners, in defence, said they picked up the old lead in the dock, and thought it was no use and no harm in taking it away. Mr. Benson said that both old and new lead was of value, and the fact of the prisoners concealing the lead about their persons so artfully was a con vincing proof that they knew they were doing wrong. There was no doubt the lead was stolen, although it could not be identified. He sentenced the prisoners to be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for the unlawful possession of the property. James Williams was charged with stealing 61bs. of sugar, the property of the London Dock Com pany. The prisoner was seen on the 6th inst. to jump into a cart leaving the dock. He was followed by a constable, who detained him, and found upon him Gibs. of raw sugar. Mr. Benson sentenced the prisoner to seven week's imprisonment and hard labour, in addition to the week's imprisonment he had already suffered• The Gladiator, paddle sloop, 1,210 tons, 430- horse power, which is also unarmoured and wooden, has been brought down from her moorings in Ports mouth harbour and placed in the steam basin for fitirrey and repair., FRANCE.
