At the meeting of the Norfolk Railway Com- Pauy to-day, for the purpose of considering the Working agreement made between the East Suffolk and Eastern Counties Railway Companies, it was agreed to adjourn to the 4th of April next, the Plans not being yet fully matured. Increased buoyancy is apparent in the Market for Public Securities. An improvement of t i per cent. took place yesterday afternoon, and a further rise of 1 per cent. is reported to-day. This favour able alteration has been caused by an advance on tile Paris Bourse, and a more confident feeling with regard to the probable adjustment of the Italian question. Consols are 961 for money and account. Numerous purchases have been effected, and the market is more animated than is usual on Saturdays. Exchequer Bills remain steady at 335. to 365. prem.; India Loan Debentures at 981 ; and ditto Bonds at 14s. prem. Business in the Foreign Stock Market is mode rately active, and prices generally tend upwards, Turkish 6 per Cents. being 931 to 931 ; ditto, New Loan, 791 to 791; Peruvian 41 per Cents. are firm, at 91t, Brazilian 41 per Cents. at 941 2, Chilian 6 per Cents. at 103, ditto Scrip at 11 discount, and Spanish Deferred at 308 ; Russian 5 per Cents. are steady, at 111, ditto 41 per Cents. at 101, and Venezuelan Deferred at 171 ; the New Austrian Loan, 2 dis. to par ; the New Indian Railway De bentures are 2 to 3 prem. Business in the Railway Share Market has ex hibited considerable activity, and prices. in most instances have been exceedingly buoyant. Eastern Counties, Great Northern, and Manchester, Shef field, and Lincoln improved ss. ; Caledonian, Lan cashire and Yorkshire, and South Eastern, 10s. ; Great Western, and North-Eastern (York), 15s. ; and Edinburgh and Glasgow, North Western, Mid land, North British, and North Eastern (Berwick), Ll. The Foreign lines are steady ; Lombardo-Vene tian have improved about ss. ; and Paris and Lyons, 10s. In the Colonial market a slight ad vance is also apparent. Grand Trunk of Canada have improved 10s.; East Indian, 15s. ; Great Indian Peninsula, ss. ; and Geelong and Mel bourne, ss. Joint Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares show little variation. Ottoman Bank, London Chartered of Australia, and Peninsular and Oriental Steam realised previous rates. BRITISH FUNDS—CLOSING PRICES. 3 per Cent.

TONNAGE AND PILOTS (LONDON). —In 1857, 2,834,107 tons of shipping entered, and 2,143,884 tons cleared out from the port of London (exclusive of coasters). In 1800 the respective numbers were only 796,632 and 729,554, and in 1750 only 179,860 tons of shipping cleared ; the amount of tonnage " entered" cannot be ascertained. There is no record of the number of pilots authorised to act in and for the port of London in 1760 or 1800, in 1808 the number was 554, and in 1857 377. MINES.—In the mining market this week the fortnightly settlement was even heavier than the last, and considering that East Russell had fallen during the account from 31 to 24, it went off better than expected. All sorts of reports and anonymous letters have been circulated in re gard to this mine, but the latest report of the agent values the main part of the lode in the 88 at 4 tons per fm ; the atope in the 66 is worth £250 per fin. ; in the 5.5, 3 tons per fin. Shares, after fluctuating a good deal, leave off at 22 to 23. Wheal Grenville shares have been largely dealt in, and on Thursday advanced from 4 to 51, and leave off at 51 to 5i ; the improvements in the mine are considerable, and such as are likely to lead to important results even sooner than we expected ; the Cause of the late rise has been the 80 west corning into 11 to n per fm. of grey, black, and malachite ore ; this end is 2 6 fess, east of the discovery in the 66, where one branch ore of the lode is worth 120 per fm., and another branch approaching it ; in the 80 east the lode is also worth 1 ton Per fm., and the appearances in this level such as lead to the expectation of a course of ore in the shaft before long, in which case the rise in shares will be verygreat,—.Mining Journal of this (lay.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.) ROLLS COURT. (Afore the Master of the Rolls, Sir John Romilly.) JUDGMENT.-ALLAWAY V. BRAIN. The contention in this case arose on the validity of the sale of several shares of miners' gales in the Forest of Dean. It appears that in the month of November, 1838, the deputy-governor of her Majesty's Woods and Forests made a grant of a mining gale in the Forest of Dean, de scribed as Freepipl Gale, to two miners of the name of James and ElisTa Mullen ; and on the following day other gales were granted to other miners of the names of Roberts, Doubleday, James Mullan, and the defen dant, Cornelius Brain. Dymock and Brain carried on business in partnership, which was early dis solved. Mullen, Barnet, and Brain formed a new com pany. In March, 1846, Roberts and Doubleday, two of the four miners, entered into partnership with Hawkins. And on the Bth of June, 1846, it is said that Elisha Mullen and three of the other miners of the mine No. 124, entered into an agreement with those in partnership with them, to sell his share to them for £2O. Subsequently they entered into an agreement with the defendant to sell them Mullan's gale for £lso—ao paid down and a bill for £lOO, which was afterwards paid, but Mullen refused to sign the con veyance. His Honour, after considering the evidence in this complicated transaction, came to the con clusion that he could not decree a sale of the whole benefit of the shares in the gale, but a portion only. His Honour allowed the plaintiff's claim to three-fourth shares of the mine, and excepted Elisha Mullan's one-fourth share in respect that he refused to convey it, and the plaintiff had sufficient notice of his claim to it ten years ago, and did not remove it by filing a bill in chancery in due time for spe • cific performance of an agreement which he denied he was a party to, or had any interest therein, and refuses to'convey his share in the mining gale in question to the plaintiff. His Honour dismissed the plaintiff's bill without costs, except so much of the costs as relates to this part of the suit. STEPHENS V. BRETON. This case same on to be mentioned as to costs. His Honour, the Master of the Rolls, said—ln this case I said I would speak to my chief clerk on the subject of costs. I have consulted with him on the subject, and lam of opinion I should give no costs on either side. The rest of the matter was settled at the time the case was last before me. SHERIFFS' COURT. (Before Mr. Prendergast, Q.C'.) PATENT MEDICINE AND ITS VALUE.-CASSEBAUM V. HOLECHITZ. This was an action to recover £2 25., for analyising some ointment. Mr. Perry (from Mr. Buchanan's) appeared for the plain tiff, and stated that he was an analytical chemist. A short time ago defendant brought him a box of ointment, desiring him to analyse it, and give defendant the result. The de fendant was told that the fee would be £2 25., and he made no objection. The analysis was made, and plaintiff in formed the defendant that the cost of the ointment would be 31d. per box, upon which defendant said that was too much, and refused to pay plaintiff for his trouble. _ For the defence it was contended that plaintiff had never been employed by defendant, and that he analysed the oint ment for his own benefit. Mr. Perry—That is not trim Plaintiff knew all about it, and therefore did not require to do so. He told defen dant that whether he received orders or not his fee for ana lysing would be £2 2s. If his Honour would adjourn the ease such evidence would be produced as would quickly show that plaintiff had .been specially engaged to analyse the ointment. His Honour agreed to do so.—Adjourned accordingly. WHITECHAPEL COUNTY COURT. (Before Mr. Sergeant Manning.) SEAMEN'S ADVANCE NOTES.-FINN V. DAVIES. This was an action to recover a sum of money due upon a seaman's advance note cashed by plaintiff. The note was produced, and Mr. Buchanan, for defendant, argued that the note had been cashed after the seaman, in whose favour it was made out, had deserted the ship. Plaintiff—The note promises to pay after the sailing of the ship, and I contend that the defendant must pay. Mr. Buchanan—The note was not presented till some time after the ship had sailed, and the defendant, receiving information that the seaman had deserted, considered he was not bound to pay. His Honour—You see, Mr. Buchanan, that the note promises to pay three days after the sailing of the ship, and you must show that the man did not sail in her at all to nullify that promise. _ Mr: Buchanan—He deserted some time afterwards. His Honour—Plaintiff is *entitled to a verdict. (To Mr. Buchanan) —Your usual succes has not attended you in this case, sir. We must have the law. (Laughter.) POLICE INTELLIGENCE.--(THIS DAY.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. CHARGE AGAINST A COFFEE-SHOP KEEPER OF STEAL ING A WATCH.—Thomas Spencer, described as a coffee house keeper, of 17, Little Tichfield-street, was charged with stealing a silver watch of the value of £6 from the person of Mr. Thomas Griffiths, a fencing-master, at the Crown and Sceptre, Foley-street. _ _ The prosecutor said that that morning between five and six he was having some stout with the prisoner, who was a stranger to him, at a public-house in Foley-street, when the prisoner suddenly snatched his watch from his waistcoat pocket and handed it to a man, who immediately started off, he being totally unable to retain him owing to the sudden ness of the robbery. Prosecutor charged him with taking it, when ho denied having done so. Police-constable 45 G said on taking him into custody he denied all knowledge of it. • - _ Mr. Pethors, an inspector of the E division, said the ac cused was known as a frequenter of Caunt's and other fighting houses. The prisoner said he went into a house to have a glass of stout when a quarrel took place between some gentlemen. A person came up to him (prisoner) and asked if he did not think the prosecutor had got out of the quarrel without a good hiding? The landlady said she would serve him with no more drink, and they went to the above house, where there were some women in front of the bar, and the prose cutor shortly after said he had lost his watch, and that his friend (the man who had spoken to him) had taken it. He denied he was a friend of his, and prosecutor afterwards seeing a constable gave him into custody, at the time saying he saw him take it. Prosecutor (recalled) said he was certain prisoner took it, and why he did not seize him was because the other had got the watch he went after him. Remanded. THAMES. CHEATING A CAB DRIVER.—James Stephenson, a tall, thin, and strange-looking man, with a moustache, and who was stated to be a naval captain, but had more the appear ance of a military man,was brought up in custody before Mr. Yardley, charged with unlawfully refusing to pay 65., cab fare, and ss. costs, awarded by Mr. Paynter, on Thursday, to be paid to James Cleare, driver of the cab No. 1,943. The prisoner engaged the complainant on Monday morning last to take up himself and two other persons, at Alder men's-stairs, Lower East Smithfield, and they were con veyed, with three packages, to No. 133, St. George's-street, and from thence to Hanover-square. The fare, including waiting for an hour and a half, was Bs., and it was paid. The complainant then drove the prisoner back to Covent-garden, where he waited three quarters of an hour, and then took him back to St. George's street, where the cab was detained 20 minutes. The fare was 6d. for the second job, which the prisoner, who was said to have come home in the Blackwall East Indiaman, as seaman or steward, refused to pay, and although the sum mons granted by Mr. Yardley was served upon him, he evaded the warrant granted by Mr. Paynter on Thursday. This morning (Saturday), Cleare saw the prisoner riding outside a cab in the Commercial road, and gave him into custody. _- - _ The prisoner said the charge was an unfair one. Cleare said he charged no more than his legal fare. And he lost his situation because ho could not pay his master for the hire of the cab on Monday. Mr. Yardley said the prisoner must pay lls, immediately, and if he did not he would have to p a y a good deal more. The prisoner was removed in custody of a policeman., and as our reporter was leaving he was reluctantly paying the money. IMPUDENT BURGLARY.--JOhD. Sweeney, a dirty-looking fellow, well known to the police, was brought before Mr. Yardley, charged with having, in concert with another thief named Henry Brittenden, committed a daring bur glary on the premises of Messrs. Garford and Son, linseed crushers, Limehouse-hole, adjoining the river, and stealing two rolls of woollen cloth, value £3O, and other property therefrom. Brittenden was before Mr. Paynter on Thursday last, and remanded for a week. Sweeney was found yesterday by an active police con stable, named George Pullen, 161 K, and after a deter mined resistance, ho took him into custody. It appeared that on Wednesday evening last Pullen saw the prisoner and Brittenden in Limehouse drawing a truck, on which was a large roll of woollen cloth for bagging, weighing about 100 lb. Pullen stopped the truck and asked Sweeney and Brittenden where they had procured the roll of cloth, and where they were proceeding. They made no answer, but immediately ran away. Brittenden was almost instantly taken; Sweeney escaped. Mr. John Garford, jun., of 31 , Ru s sell - square, said the property belonged to him and his father, and was stolen from their factory and linseed-oil works at Limehouse on Wednesday evening. Mr. William Reynolds, foreman to Messrs. Garford and Son, steed that the roll of cloth, and another roll about the tame value, were stolen from a warehouse o n th e i r pre mises. A watchman was employed, but the burglars watched the watchman, took a pane of glass out of the counting-house, and after breaking through several doors, got into tho warehouse and stole the property mentioned. Mr. Yardley remanded the prisoner until Thursday next. FROM THE GAZETTE OF LAST NIGHT. WHITEHALL, MARCH 16. The Queen has been pleased to present the Rev.

BURFORD'S PANORAMA._A finely executed and very interesting picture of the city of Canton, as it appeared after the bombardment and assault by the allied forces of England and France, in Dec., 1857, is now exhibiting at Burford's Panorama, Leicester-square. As a piece of scenic - painting it possesses very considerable merit ; and whether regarded as a work of art, or simply as a correct repi esanto tion. of a city which, though devoid otarehitectural beauty, has many claims on the attention of the British pu blic, it will well repay a visit.
