Account, Feb. 4 .. 93 1 O VEREND, GURNEY, AND COMPANY. FURTHER EXAMINATION OF THE DIRECTORS THIS DAY. The case for the prosecution was furthar proceeded with this day. Mr. Harding, one of the ( flicial liquidators of the limited firm, Was placed in the witness box, and the evidence he had given on the foraier occasion was read over. He explained to the Court for his own justification the reason why he did not make any inquiry respecting the Greek and Oriental Steam Company, who appeared in the books of the limited company as debtors to the amount of £141,000. It appeared to have been written off as a bad debt to December, 1865; at least it was only stated to be likely to realise £7,000. Mr. Lewis said that, notwithstanding this fact, the debt had been previously passed over to the limited com pany as a good asset. Mr. Harding said this was so. In answer to questions put by Mr. G. Lewis, Mr. Harding said that a debt of £27,028 due by A. G. Gordon and Co. was written off in March, 1865, as a bad debt. The firm had failed at this time, and the debt was considered and treated as worthless by the old firm, but it was handed over as an asset to the new company. The same thing, in point of fact, was done with the debt of £144,000 owing by the Greek and Oriental Coinpany.When the limited company closed its doors the debts of the direc tors were stated at £2,970,000, and he estimated the total claim of the limited company against the directors of the old firm at the present time at £4,027,000, the amount having been increased by bills of exchange that had since become duo awl had been dishonoured. The losses of the limited company during these nine months of trading, irresp,:ctivd of the losses by the old firm were £1,400,000. (Sensation.) They made no profit at all if the losses were debited. In cross•oxamination by Mr. Sergeant Ballautine, Mr. Hai ding admitted that the business of the old firm (dis counting principally) was a very profitable one, generally speaking, and the losses that had occurred arose from ad vances made for shipping and other such securities. The great panic compelled the new company to close its doors, and after that smaller firms went, and the securities in many instances held by the new company in a great measure became worthless. The stability of the company was no doubt affected by the circumstances becoming known that the estates of the directors were being realised. Mr. Sergeant Ballantine—You have found it necessary to make another call of £5 upon the unfortunate share holders. Is there any hope that that money will ulti mately be returned to the shareholders ? Mr. Harding—Yes. We hope to be able to return the money. There are certain assets which have yet to be realised, and we hope with a favourable result. I may say we never anticipated the necessity of making that fresh call, and I hope when the securities are realised we shall be able to return the money we aro now com pelled to call for. Mr. Sergeant Btllantine —1 hoo your anticipations will be realised. Mr. Harding—l hope 60 too. The case occupied his lordship unil four o'clock, when t was again adjourned. MARKETS-2 HIS DAY.

INVESTITURE OF THE PRINCE OF WALES WITH THE ORDER OP TILE BLACK EAGLE. BERLIN, J.N. 20.—Yesterday afternoon, at half-past two, a chapter of the knights of the Order of the Black Eagle was held in the royal palace to invest his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales , with the insignia of the order. The investiture:took place in the Ritter Saal (hall of the knights), in the presence of the King, the royal princes, and the other knights of the order, all wearing the robes, and attended by the officials, pages, and heralds. His Majesty having taken his place upon the throne, Count Stilifried, the chief master of the cerem on ies,was commanded to introduce the Prince of Wales. Thereupon, preceded by the heralds and conducted by Count Stillfried, the Crown Prince of Prussia and Prince Adalbert proceeded to the Brandenburg Chamber, and there received the Prince of Wales and accompanied him to the steps of the throne. The two princes remained as sponsors by the side of the new knight until the conclusion of the cere mony. The King expressed to the Prince of Wales the pleasure he felt in receiving his Royal Highness into the order, and more especially on that day (18th January), the anniversary of its foundation. The Prince then took the customary vow, and was invested with the mantle by his sponsors, after which, again approaching the throne, the Grand Master placed round his neck the knightly chain and bestowed the accolade. As the King of Prussia placed round the neck of the Prince the chain, his Majesty said that he experienced great pleasure in thus bestowing upon the Prince the same chain, which his illustrious father, the Prince Consort, had formerly worn. After the investiture the King and the knights of the order, preceded by the pages, went to the Chapter-room of the order. The Ministers and all the Court officials were present at the ceremony, as well as the suites of the respective princes, and a special invitation had also been sent to Lord Loftus, the English Ambassador, who, together with the members of the Embassy, attended the investiture.— Beuter's Express.

He tried to use some of the money after the fellow left the town, and found that every dollar of it was counterfeit.—Toronto Globe. Thursday was fixed for testing a new shell patented by Mr. Fitzmaurice Palmer, at Shoeburyness. Considerable interest was manifested in the experiments, the result of which is expected to be of a very important nature.

The experiments were there upon adjourned, to afford the inventor an opportunity of fitting the projectiles with suitable fuses. Admiral Elliott and several other gentlemen were present. The subjoined (says the Warrington Guardian) ' is an exact copy of a written card suspended in the shop window of a tradesman in Horsemarket-street, Warring ' ton.

During the inspection of the hospital his lordship passed from bed to bed. On arriving at the bed of a dragoon labouring under what was believed to be an incurable aberration of mind, his lordship inquired his ailment, ani the surgeon, knowing the man's inability to account for himself, was proceeding to explain the case, when, to the astonishment of all present, the man, fixing his eyes on his chief, suddenly became conscious, and reason having, as if by magic, resumed her sway, be ex plained how he had been injured, which to that moment was not known, even to the surge on. The lan 's recovery was so sudden, and so complete , t hat his lor dship said he could not believe his ailment to have been as stated Were it not vouched for beyond a doubt by the surgeon." A POLICE SUPERINTENDENT " DONE " BY • WOMAN. —The police in the town of Sierputov, in Russia, were the other day made the victims of a curious swindle. A lady, handsomely dressed, came by train from Moscow, and, accosting the director of the police, who happened to be at the station, asked him to take her to the nearest hotel, as she wished to speak to him on important business. When they arriv e d a t th e h otel she told the unsuspecting direct or , who was, d ou b t l ess, ac cus tldt which coetihd‘: had dr teici esrbteietceiln:adli detective cr rre i s ) u o io l a i f c t a nal n et d had .lo orgs Moscow, od b w e b e , a n annk s d e . n c w t oet t re o es announcements, that sh e b e l onge d y ed found to have come from Sierputov. On hearing this the director immediately sent for the other high police officials, and a consultation took place. The lady said she was on the trace of the forgers, an , ' had no doubt she would be able to convict them of their guilt, but for this par pose she must be provided with a few hundreds of roubles to enable her to get some of the forged notes into her possession. The roubles were at once paid, and the lady then took leave of her guests, promising to meet them on the following day at a village near the town, where the forgers were supposed to reside. The police officials were punctual at the rendezvous, but the lady was not there. After waiting for some time, they sent messages all over the town and its vicinity, but in vain. The lady and the roubles had disappeared, and have not been heard of since. ik
