It is announced that the directors of the Messa geries Imperiales intend to propose, at the ap proaching annual meeting, a dividend for 1868 of 50 francs, of which 20 francs have already been paid on account. Surprise is felt that no action has been taken by any of the London banks to give a sense of security to the large body of their customers who are in the habit of intrusting to their care heavy amounts of Property consisting of marketable bonds, &c. Some weeks ago the Privy Council decided that a bank receiving such deposits in charge is bound only to exercise reasonable care, and that this does not in clude any requirement that it should guard the depositor against robbery by the clerks or porters who have access to his box, so that in instances of the employment of persons like Pullinger or Ifiggs they would be wholly without re a r "-Y• Great anxiety was manifested by the financial community when the decision was pro- Inalgated, and it was then asserted that the banks Would forthwith take the subject into consideration in order to establish some understanding on which their customers might definitely rely. Is the absence, however, of continued comment, the hope seems to have arisen that the trouble may be avoided, and that the question may be left in its old groove until it shall have been ravived by some disaster involving sudden loss or ruin to many persons. In the Chatham and Dover matter it is said that strenuous efforts are aeing made to take the conduct of the Chancery proceedings out of the hands of the company's solicitor, and to place it in those of one of the legal firms who are reputed alrea.ly to have grown rich out of the complications of this un happy concern, the intention of course being to press on the Chancery proceedings with increased vigour in the face of the proposed arbitration which has already passed the Ilouse of Commons. It may be hved, however, that the vigilance of all the leading interests, supported by the unanimous force of public opinion, will be sufficient to prevent the s uccess of the attempt, and to secure an e..trly and equitable solution of all questions by the kidgincnt ni Lord Salisbury and Lord Cairns.

ROBBERY AT A JEwALLEns.—Ann J :tine s or Emma M'Kennis, a respectable-low:Mg young woman, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with stealing a keeper ring of the value of 12s. Gd., the property of Mr. George Dyer, jeweller, Regent-street. Mr. Dyer, junr., said that on Saturday evening the prisoner came into his father's shop and asked to be shown some keeper rings. He showed her a tray, and she made several objections to the rings, first to the price, then to the stones ; she having asked for those with garnets in, and afterwards to the quality. While the prisoner was looking at the rings he missed one and subsequently another, and saw one under the pri soner's little finger. He allowed the prisoner, who made no purchase, and was about to leave, to get into the middle of the shop, and then went 0 the shop door, and told her that he should send for a constable, upon which, without his charging her with stealing anything, she threw down a keeper ring on the floor, and said she had not taken it, and knew nothing about it. Mr. Tyrwhitt remanded the prisoner. HAMES. MUD EROUS ASSAULT.

They came home in the same ship, after a long voyage, and had been recently paid off. There were differences between the two seamen in the course of the voyage home, and upon meeting in a public-house near the Sailor's Home their differences were renewed, and they quarrelled and abused each other. From words they oamo to blows, and were turned out of the house. The fight was renewed in the street., and they were en couraged by some roughs and low blackguards.

The election of the Mayor of Cork was a lively affair. The council was excited enough, but the crowd went beyond all bounds. When the name of Mr. Corbett, one of the Corporation, Was called, he said he would not vote. —A Voice: What way does Corbett vote ?—Mr. Collins s He won't vote ; he wants a better man.—A Voice : He won't get a better man.—Mr. Collins : Well, tell him so, and then he might listen to you, and vote.—The numbers of those who voted were then an nounced, and Mr. W. Hegarty was declared duly elected. —A respectable-looking young man here came forward to the bench and asked, " Mr. Chairman, who did you vote for ?"- Town Clerk : Ile voted for Mr. llegarty.— " We arc glad to know that," said the "young man," and jumping down, he told the people outside the way Mr. Sullivan had given his suffrage. What the reporter de scribes as dissatisfied and angry yells here burst from the crowd. Mr. W. Hegarty came forward and returned thanks, but was received with hooting and yelling, so that his remarks were altogether inaudible.—Chairman : Mr. llegarty is a good man. (Hisses and yells.)—Mr. Nagle: Order, order, Mr. Chairman. I offer my most hearty thanks to those members of the council who voted for me. I came forward here at the request of 300 or 400 of the burgesses of Cork, beeause I considered, that no man should flinch from a public duty. I regret very much that the other members have not acquiesced in the recommendation of the citizens made of me. Dut I hope now it will be all forgotten, and I think that during Mr. llegarty's year of office you will not find anyone a better friend of his than I will be. Upon the fact blooming generally known that the enairman had voted for Alderman Hegarty, a rush was made towards the bench, and in an instant half a dozen fists were presented at his face. A scene of excitement resulted, during which such expressions were used to the ex-Mayor as " You sold the people to-day; " " You sold your country last week ;" "You are a traitor;" "You sold the pass twice—once in London, and now here again ;" " G oula ; " and " Spy."—The Chairman (trying to raise his voice above the uproar) : Fellow-citizens, lam here—A Voice: Get away with you. The people put you into a position and you betrayed them. You have degraded your position. If the people knew how you would vote you would not get the reception you did. (Cheers and hisses.) You ought to be hooted out of Cork. Principle is everything, but you degraded your position, and sold the people. (Dreadful uproar, during which several persons in the crush had to clamber over the bench in order to prevent being injured. The ex-Mayor in vain endeavoured to get a hearing, though he was fre quently heard to call for silence while he made an expla nation.)—A Voice: Away with you. Your pocket is dirty. (Hisses.) You have betrayed the public ; and you ' can never raise your head again. (Groans. )—Another Voice : Why did you sell the people ?—Chairman: I am alder man of a ward.— AVoice: Ah ! and you won't go in next time. (Hear.)—Chairman : I am ready this moment to give it up, fellow citizens.—A Voice : You sold the people.—Another Voice : By Jesus I'd knock the devil out of Dan Sullivan after what he did today. (Cheers and laughter.) But he was bribed. (Hooting and yelling, amid which the chairman finding he could not get a hearing, retired. As he left the court with several others he was loudly hissed.) In the room behind the bench, as the ex-Mayor ana other members of the council were moving through it on their way out, a spicy scene occurred between him and Mr. Nagle. Owing to the crush and confusion, several of the late occupants of the galleries having crowded into the little room, it was hard to understand what the hot discussion was about. The following portions of it were, however, audible.—Mr. D. O'Sullivan (to Mr. Nagle)-- . When Patrick O'Sullivan proposed a resolution in the council declaring my explanation satisfactory, what did you say? You said, "Gentlemen, this matter is before the law officers of the Crown ; suspend your judgment." —Mr. Nagle : I saved you from a vote of censure.—Mr. D. O'Sullivan : If Mr. Sullivan's resolution were passed that day at the council it would have prevented the Govern ment from doing anything. Mr. Nagle : Excuse me.—Mr. D. O'Sullivan : Mr. O'Sullivan. did you not propose a resolution that day declaring my explanation satisfactory ? Mr. P. O'Sullivan : 1 did.—Mr. Nagle : Would not a vote of censure have been carried that day ?—Mr. D. O'Sullivan: Dont you think, Mr. O'Sullivan, that your resolution would have been carried ?—Mr. P. O'Sullivan : It would, I believe.—Mr. D. O'Sullivan : And what did Mr. Nagle say then ? " Oh, suspend your judgment, gentlemen. It is before the law officers of the Crown."—Mr. Nagle : The Mayor, I know, has an insane hatred of me, but he wrongs me.— The ex-Mayor: I have my opinions. (A Voice: "And we all know that they are honest opinions ") And this I will say, that not all the Orangemen in Ireland can deprive me of them.--1 he ex-Mayor and some of his fren(ls then left the build'ng, and the mob quietly -etiled from the col:rt. Another account of the proceedings gives a portion of • the speech (.f the ex-Mayor, which was delivered amidst much confusion. Ire expressed his confidence in the Government, and went on to sr y, " I believe Ireland is tie birthright of the Irish race. I believe every inch of ground confisea'ed two hundred years ago was con fiscated improperly ; Lecause, after the Treaty of Limerick had been agreed upon, that treaty was in 1714 broken by a party in England, and the land of Ireland, and the u hole of Ireland was, under the Act of Settlement, taken from the Irish people. I believe we are coming to doing away with that Act of Settlement. It was a wrong, a violence, and a fraud. It was done after Ireland had made a treaty with England, but I believe that the days are coming back again when the Irish race will still be the possessors of their own soil. I believe the true position of Ireland is to pull free and unfettered alongside the English nation." Owing to some " difficulty" with the Board of Trade, the members of the Liverpool Local Marine Board have resigned en nicate. The Bishop of Salisbury continues to improve In health. The anticipations of Dr. Gull, of a speedy restoration to health, we hope will soon be realised. LAW REPORTING. —The annual report of the Council of Law Reporting for the year 1868, just issued, is very brief this year. It is announced that the subscription receipts in 1868 were .C 22,067 103. 6d., as against £21,860 16s. 4d. in 1867—an increase of £206 14s. 2d. The cost of printing and delivery, we are told, has been reduced by £1,087, and the " debit cash balance" from £3,324 10s. 7d. to £292 Bs. 2d. £5,346 ss. was paid to the editors and reporters, and if the profession will increase their subscrip tions the council hope that they may at some time not far distant pay full salaries. SINGULAR OBITUARY NOTICE.—On e of the Spanish provincial papers publishes a singular notice in its obituary. It says :—" This morning our Saviour sum moned away the jeweller Siebald Illmaga from his shop to another and a better world. The undersigned, his widow, will weep upon his tomb, as will also his two daughters, Hilda and Emma, the former of whom is married, and the latter is open to an offer. The funeral will take place to-morrow. His disconsolate widow, VERONIQUE ILLMACA. P.S.—This bereavement will not interrupt our business, which will be carried on as usual, only our place of busi ness will be removed from No. 3, Tessi des Teinturiers to No. 4, Rue de Missionaire, as our grasping landlord has raised our rent." THE FATAL ACCIDENT TO A VOLUNTEER.—The inquest upon the body of Matthew Chatterton, a private in the Bilston Volunteer Corps, who was shot on Thurs day, was held on Saturday, before Mr. W. H. Phillips, deputy coroner. The deceased, it was shewn, ran out of he mantlet, just as Serjeant Penney was firing, for the purpose of either blacking or whiting the target. He did AO, however, without raising the red disc, the signal of danger, which lay by his side in the mantlet. The jury returned a verdict of " Accidental death," but recom mended that in future markers should be dressed in red, so that they would be more quickly discerned. The coroner drew the attention of the captain of the corps to a contrivance which he thought would prevent such acci dents. It consisted of a seat in the mantlet, to which was attached a danger signal. The marksman should occupy this seat. While he did so the signal was not seen, but as soon as he left it the signal appeared. Rom-&N CATiloLicisiki IN THE DIOCESE OF WEST MINSTER.—Archbishop Manning has just issued " A Pastoral Letter to the Clergy and Laity of the Diocese of Westminster for Trinity Sunday." " The breathing of the Holy Ghost, the Spirit of Life," says the archbishop, " has sensibly gone forth over England. We feel it like the coming of spring. God has his purposes for us ; and there are some even now in the midst of us who will perhaps see what a few years ago the most hopeful hardly dreamed." The Archbishop states that " through the zeal of our clergy and the generosity of our fleck, no fewer than ,--eleven churches will soon have keen added to the diocese since Trinity Sunday last. The Church of the Guardian A n,-;el3 was opened in the East of London last Decemixr. The little church at Ongar, in Essex, vets opened in the last month. Five are at this moment in course of erection ; another has been already completed ; and the first stone of four others will soon be laid. The new church at Sunbury will be opened while these words are being read. The noble Church of Our Lady of Victories, at Kensing ton, will be completed in about six weeks ; the church at Barking ;will be opened without delay ; the church at Southend ought to be completed by August next ; the church at West Drayton is rapidly advancing. The first stone of a fine church will be laid before long at Hollo way ; in a little while a church will be begun at Harwich .e church and seminajakk:s2igu U.? I • SHARE LIST. ASD STOCKS. rad.

The changes that have taken place in the positions of Perry Down, the Drummer, Bor der Knight, Ladas, Martyrdom, Rupert, De Vere, Ryshworth, and Ethus within the last week or ten days, would have kept the game alive if the three favourites had all remained firm. But there are other items in the programme tban the Derby, and not the least significant is the race set for Tuesday, arising out of the Epsom difficulty, the Walton Manor Stakes, over the las: wile and a quarter. A briLiant entry was attracted by the 750 soya added money, for the 37 nominated comprised the two last Derby winners and the favourite for the next, besides Knight of the Garter, Vcspos:an, King Victor, See Saw, Grimston, Troca dero, Thorwaldsen, Badsworth, Lumley, and Vaga bond. Take away all the penalties and allowances so judiciously ordained by the conditions, and there would be " only one in it," and that one Knight of the Gar er, but the Chester Cup winner has to carry lOst lib, in-tearl of the original 9st slb, which latter isall the impost Troca!lero is aill . cted with, and Badsworth and Luitiley at Bst 31beach,Leontes at 7st 101 b, Rupert at 7st 31b, and Vagabond and the Young Melbourne fat 7st, are worth looking at now, and the race, in my opinion, looks like a match be tween Vagabond and Knight of the Garter, the former for choice. Perfvine ought to secure the Heathcote Plate, and President Lincoln is not badly dealt with in the Rous Handicap. The field for the Derby will number about twenty-six, se lected from the following : Pretender Mr J. Johnstone Dark blue, silver braid Pero Gomez Sir Joseph Hawley...Cberry, black cAp Belladrum. Mr James Merry Yellow, black cap Ladas Lord Roseberry Primrose and rose hoops, rose cap Bosworth Mr J. Astley Drab, blue cap Martyrdom' Lord Calthorpe Blue, white cap Dukc of Beaufort..l4lr E. BraylPy Red, yellow cap Tasman Sirß.W.Bulkeley.....Brown, white sesms, sleeves and cap Royal Rake Lord Rendlesham ...Orange Tenedos Duke of Newcastle... Violet and white hoops, violet cap Perry Down Mr T. Jennings 'White, green belt, red cap The Drummer Mr W. Graham Green, black belt, green cap Mr Padwick • Bla c k, orange cap ......Baron Rothschild Dark blue, yellow cap Mr Savile Yellow, scarlet cap Lord Royston White, gold braid, purple ca Rupert Lord Strafford White, purple sleeves, velvet cap The 2Egean Mr Norman Blue, gold braid Brennus .... ...... ...Lord Zetland White, red spots, scarlet cap Strathnairn Mr Watt Harlequin Border Knight..... Sir Charles Legard Blue Consternation Mr Cornish Blue,white stars, crimson sleeves and capj De Tore Mr Joseph Dawson... White, red cap Ethuß.. Hermione colt. Ryshworth.. ..... Alpenstock....... Pretender, since his easy victory over Belladrum in the Two Thousand Guineas, has kept his posi tion.as first favourite, and deservedly so, as no horse can be doing better. Thorwaldsen, his stable companion, is greatly fancied for a place and may just manage to repeat the Andover and Hermit feat by running first and third when the Baron run s - ...cond with King Tom. Belladrum will run a much better horse than he did iu the Two Thousand, and may turn the tables on Pretender. Pero Gomez has slightly declined in the betting owing to a rumour that he was beaten in his trial, but those who are treating with indifference Sir Joseph's grand horse will have cause to repent it when they take their preliminary canters. Vagabond is a doubtful starter, and King Cophetua may be sent to make the running for "Pero." Perry Down will be the hope of the Frenchmen, but I have no fancy for him. lie might secure a "shop." The Drummer has been backed heavily for a place, and will like the course better than the Two Thousand ; but, good horse as I think he is, he will not accomplish another Caractacus coup. ➢lartyrdom will be ridden by Fordham, and is almost certain of getting home in the first three, as be is much improved. Rhys worth has no chance. Ladas and Ethus have now retired to the outside division. In summing up I can come to no other conclusion than that the judge will place them as follows : PRETENDER 1 BELLADRUM 2 . MART YRDO AI 3 The O a ks will be won by :\l'ormt rr Bcigantine, A FItESII MAN. PRINCESS'S TI-Ib:ATRE.—On Monday next, the 31st, Mr. T. E. Smnle, the treasurer of this theatre, takes his benefit, on which occasion A very attractive series of entertaii:ments will be given, supported by all the leading talent of the day. The urbanity of Mr. S male his secured fur him the respect and friendship of a great number of persons, and in return for his universal attention to the patrons of this place of amasem3nt, it is to be hoped on the occasion of his benefit he will receive that strong sup port which he so eminently deserves. ALLEGED MURDER NEAR TILE TE3IPLE.—At the inquest to-day into the circumstances attending the death of Mr. W. Young, aged 32, who was supposed to have been robbed of a considerable sum of money and then thrown into the Thames, one of the witnesses said deceased had had a run of bad luck on the turf. The jury re turned a verdict of found drowned. THE QUEEN'S BIRTHDAY.—To-day is the fiftieth anniversary of the birth of her Majesty the Queen. and the auspicious occasion was celebrated with joyous de monstrations in the Royal borough of Windsor. The gelding by Weatherbit out of St. Agnes pulled up lame while running in the Wheatharastead Stakes at Harpenden. We understand that Mr. Chaplin recently hired Rapid Rhone and Brother to Rapid Rhone, and that they are stationed at Tathwell and Blankney. The following assumed names have been registered:— Mr Black and Mr F. B. Hill. Ligurian was struck out of the Somersetshire Stakes at 1.15 on the day of the race. Mr Hillman, the "little plunger," has lost during the week between £6,000 and £7,000. Mr Harry Sydney, the popular comic singer, is engaged at Evans's for the Derby week. Bouquetiore, after winning the Paddock Stakes at Croy don, was sold to Mr Ford for 155 guineas. The two year old filly by Lacydes out of Fiction, after winning the Juvenile Selling Stakes at Manchester, was sold to Mr. G. W. Morris for 140 guineas. The following horses, the property of Mr. Naylor, have left Weever's stables for M. Dawson'a, Newmarket : —Wild Briar, Glenlyon, Chatsworth, Cherie, Poetry, Sister to Wild Briar, and Lorelei filly. Mr. Snowing has sent fifteen of his own mares to Caractacus (sire of Captivator), which is half the number to which the horse is limited. Mr. Snewing's yearlings by Caractacus will be sold at East Acton on the Wednes day after the Derby. Daley was claimed by Mr. C. Jarvis, after running in the Bothamstead Stakes at Harpenden, and Plunger was sold for '25 guineas to Mr. Fox, after the decision of the Scurry Handicap at the same meeting, in which raze he was unplaced. The Duke of Hamilton, it is understood, bought in se veral of the animals at the sale last Saturday in Paris, and will continue to patronise tho French Turf. W. Planner has been engaged as trainer, while the Duke retains J. Page's services as first jockey. There was a novelty at some sports near Leeds, in the shape of a hurdle race, in which the horses wore ridden by the fair sex. One of them had a mishap by the slip ping of her horse's saddle girths, but the two others rode a very vigorous finish, which was won by a head. Mr Graham, who is extraordinarily confident of win ning the Derby with The Drummer, has expressed his determination, in the event of success, to present .f. 4,000 to his trainer, and £l,OOO "ready money" to whoever may be the fortuuate jockey, immediately after the race. Several jockeys have been negociated with, but Mr Graham has resolved to keep the actual rider a secret until the last moment. THE PIGEON SHOOTi'fq HANDICAP AT CROYDON.— The silver cup offered by the ailumittee to be shot for at pigeons, on Thursday, having failed to produce a contest with members of Tattersall's, the prizei Will be confined to trainers and jockeys, and will be shot for at ilsa next meet ing. Mr. E. Smith will handicap the competitors. 11.AstrroN.—The Surrey and Middlesex Stakes has closed with 39 subs., the Wolsey Plate with 35, and the Visitors' Plate with 30 entries. WYE RACES.—Myrtle, who won the Military Stakes, was objected to, and subsequently disqualified, Master Horatio, who came in second, being awarded the stakes. The great display of fireworks and illumination of fountains at the Crystal Palace will take place at nine o'clock exactly ti.is evening. As from the fineness of the evening it is expected a large number of visitors will thereby be attracted to this grand display, who have only made up their minds at the last moment, it is announced that reserved seats may be secured by telegram to the ticket-office, Crystal Pa'ace. His Highness the Nawab of Bengal and other distinguished visitors will be present. DurtviLLE and Co., Belfast, are the largest holders of Whisky in the world. Their Old Irish Whisky Is re commended by the medical profession in preference to French Brandy. Supplied in casks and cases for home use or exports tion. Quotations on application to Messrs.

Race Glasses, by Voigtliind, are now no longer the ex clusive luxury of the rich. Since the great demand for photographic lenses has diminished, au opportunity has been atforaed for applying mechanical power with the greatest sue: es , ., whereby the cost of these beautiful and tuoAt perfoet instruments is reduced in price in some instances to as much as 20 per cent. In fact they are now no dearer than those of the best French or English makers. At the depot Aullaghan, 23.5., New Bond-street, corner of Conduit-street, the patrons of the Deiby may indulge their taste in the possession of a veritable Voigtlauder at comparrvively trifling cost. It is superfluous to say the qu-slity is as ever matchless. RACING- F 'IXT li RES.

The proceedings were again adjourned. EXTRAORDINARY MATCH.—A match of a novel nature was made on the Monday night previous to the races, be tween Mr. Graham, the well-known owner of Formosa, and Squire Dowding, who races under the name of Mr. Edwyn, in which the former backed himself to ride For mosa against The Squire on Needle Gun, one mile, during the Ascot Meeting, for £5O a-side, catch-weights.
