The goldroom is in Broad-street, New York, at the Treasury cud, and within a few doors of the in tersection of Wall-street. The goldroom, in the exterior, is unimposing; a mere passage-way and staircase from the street, leading somewhere, which is not obvious. its precise whereabouts did not re main in doubt a single instant after turning out of Wall-street. The appearance in Broad-street, in front of the passage way and staircase, is identical with that in front of the more popular London theatres on boxing night. There is a throng outside the pavement, a regular jam on the pavement, and those lucky enough to have secured places in the pas sage-way and staircase are subjected to pressure from without of a sturdy character which may be thought of when stimulated by the lust of gain. To be first in the goldroom is to be in the advantageous position of offering or accepting the first business, and during what is called a heated term of excite ment there may be a fluctuation of 5 or more per cent. in the course of a single day, and 1 per cent. even—say ssoo,ooo—is a large item either for buyer or seller. We took up a position in the street throng, and, when those in the passage-way and on the staircase obtained ingress into the goldroom, the swaying and surging became for a few moments dreadful—positively dreadful. Alarmed at the pres sure, the writer, availing himself of the first instant's ease, inquired of his companion whether pocket picking was to be feared, and being assured of im munity in that particular, if not in others, squeezing . , :was borne complacently: 'Saeioris characters, it appears, fare badly in the goldroom crowd, so much so that it is avoided, on principle, by the New York thieves. Not long ago the alarm was given of the presence of one of the fraternity, and in stantly all accessible feet and hands were turned on the intruder, and he was as nearly killed outright as any one well could be. So pocket-books and valu ables are always safe. Elbowing one's way upstairs the members' entrance is gained, and here tho stranger's pushing stops, until the sanction of the President has been obtained to his getting in. This involved little loss of time, it probably being among the duties of the President to be as well forward in the squeeze, and as constantly at hand, as an umpire at a prize fight. He readily accorded the permis sion to the influential members who requested it, and followed up the courtesy by the presentation of the neat pocket copy of the list of members of the goldroom and stock and other exchanges, and the official daily rates for gold since January 13, 1862, when gold was first trafficked in after the manner of Agra and Masterman's shares during the late panic. All this appeared to occupy a second, so hurried were the greetings—as informal and de monstrative as those on small children when the fire-escape man lays hold of them in their burning chamber. Turning round, the writer found the business of the day proceeding, not as if the doors had been thrown open during five minutes only, but as if it had been going on for hours; the members in their usual corners, the outside speculators of the kerbstone leaning over the rails of their stalls, the clerks and messengers of members leaning over their rails, and the telegraph operators and boys in their enclosure, as much at home, apparently, and as intently interested in what is passing as the men who bawl with stentorian voice "55 for the com modity," which left off the previous day at f more. The hubbub is appalling ; for while there are sellers at 54, there are buyers at 53, who are also shouting. At half-past ten o'clock there is a transaction at 54, which is at once posted on the black board, 154 ; and at three-quarters past tea o'clock there are other sales, and at this time at 53, which are instantly posted on the black board, 153. 1 The excitement heightens ; rushes by members to and from clerks and messengers at the railings, and to and from the speculators of the kerbstone at the 1 railings. In another quarter of an hour the rate is is do . wii o tZT So, ordinarily, the day passes until half-past four o'clock, when the official business of the day closes ; but on this occasion, and in fact every Saturday, the adjournment takes place at a quarter-past three. The closing prices of the day was 524, or 1521. That the goldroom should be seedy and smoky is a reflection foreign to the place ; for while the buyers and sellers shout and babble, every marking on the black board vibrates through the whole money and commercial dealings of the United States—west, even beyond the Rocky Mountains, to the Pacific. The influence of the room is all-powerful for good and evil ; to-day it may be fixing the relation, as between gold and notes, 153 notes for 100 of coin, and to-morrow holding the proportions as 100 of the latter for 285 of the former, as was the case on the 11th July, 1864. And those notes, be it ob served, are legal tender, $lOO in coin on the one occasion possessing a purchasing or paying power of $285 ; and on the other of $153. When our English dockyards arc paved with iron, and are alleged to be all but useless, the goldroom, by rea son of its authority, might well be paved with gold. It is, moreover, an institution which has rendered valueless some of the profoundest generalisations of thihkers and economists on money questions ; separating, in great measure, the value of coin from the sum of bank note issues, and bringing it into subjection to other lawf.

Hilton and and Co. of that city Drake an impudent attempt to defend their conduct in publishing a novel, falselyascribod to Miss Braddon. They say—" If we have been the victims of an imposition in sending forth ' What is this Mystery' as tho work of Miss Braddon, for as such we were tempted to purchase the original, wo have shared the critical fate of the editors of some 300 journals who have pronounced this publication not only to have been tho work of Miss B ra dd o n, but tho very best which has emanated from her pen. Consequently, if our powers of literary detec tion, in this instance, failed us, wo have the pleasing satisfaction of having furnished the public with a work which, if not by Miss Braddon, is at least equal to her ordinary performances. Assuredly we are not to blame, for the reader purchases the book, and not the author's name, and it is our business to manufacture and such works only, as we can sell. We do such works, to be critics, but merely p u bli s h ers, and not pretend proffered to us simply as su it a bl e to the market. judge material Regard ing What is this Mystery' as the composition of a master hand, we published it, and have been amply rewarded by the favou r b y w hi ch it has been received. Tho reputation of an authoress frequently sells a most indif ferent production; i n this instance s the d romance, issued under the name o f a writer, has reputation of its accredited author as ess ure Alsy sustained miaaßradd t o h n o distinctly says that it did not emanate from her pen Nye would bo ungentlemanly to deny her assertion. Still -wo in many instances, have witnessed the weakness of authors who, when their names demand a price, repudiate prior productions, which, when issued anonymously, have secured appreciation of their latent talents." Upon this the New York Times remarks :—" If Messrs. Hilton and Co. were deceived, as they allege, in purchasing a spurious manuscript, they must be regarded, as, in a certain sense, victims. Intelligent publishers, however, are supposed to be not so entirely guileless as the Messrs. Hilton profess in their vindication ; and we must take the liberty of saying that the philosophic reflections on authorship with which their communication concludes, scarcely correspond with the unsophisticated character to which the writers lay claim at the opening. They have made a 'good thing' out of it, and they are satisfied —no matter how much Miss Braddon may have been outraged, or the public swindled. Messrs. Hilton and Co. probably expect to make even some additional profit by the smartness of their letter, herewith published; and to that profit, with these qualify ing words, we make them heartily welcome."

In relation to the late accident which occurred to Mr. Young we have been favoured by her Majesty's Consul at Geneva with the following letter from Mr. Loppe, a well-known artist in glacier scenes : " Chamounix, Aug. 29. "My dear Consul,—.l think it is useless for mo to relate to you in detail what has just happened on Mont Blanc. You must be already overwhelmed with accounts and de scriptions, &c., more or less true, arranged according to the imagination of each narrator, which is always more poetical or dramatical than the simple truth. As soon as it was known that some accident had happened to these unfortu nate Englishmen just below the summit of Mont Blanc, we set off, myself and two guides on the one hand, and seven other guides sent by the Mayor of Chamounix, and accom panied by two gendarmes, the latter little accustomed to the glaciers, and who retarded us greatly. " At last, at 7 o'clock in the evening, we reached the cabin of the Grands Mulets. As we were preparing to start from there in search of those we supposed to bo eitherhurt or incapable of extricating themselves from among tho precipices, we saw them arrive—that is to say, two of them only, the other having been, they told us, killed instan taneously by falling on his head from a height of 20 feet. These travellers were Sir George Young and his two brothers ; the youngest, Mr. Samuel Young, was the un fortunate victim of the accident. Sir George expressing to me a wish to endeavour to recover his brother's body, I chose six of the most able of the guides to accompany him. The others would only have been an hindrance, as they were already tired and indisposed bythe quantities of snow water they had drunk on their way up. The party left' at a quarter to three o'clock, and I remained at the cabin with au Englishman, who had on our arrival most kindly placed his guides and provisions at our disposition. party did not return, I proposed that we should go to meet them, and take some provisions with us. After having been an hour on the road we met a party of Frenchmen returning from Mont Blanc, who gave us some very vague information of the others. " We began to feel alarmed, the fog which enveloped the mountains grew thicker as we ascended, and a fine snow began to fall. Arrived at the Grand Plateau at 3 o'clock, and hearing no answer to our numerous cries, myself, Ba guette, and Alexandre Tournier pressed forward. At last we heard the voices of Sir George and his guides, who had lost their way above the precipices that separate the Corridor from the Great Plateau, and who dared not advance a step for fear of being precipitated into a crevasse. The difficult y was to give them any certain advice. At last a gust of wind dispersed the fog, and we saw them at a height of 1,000 feet on the edge of a frightful declivity of ic3. 1 recognised a comparatively easy passage at the foot of the Rochers Rouges, and by force of signs, they having seen us, we directed them which way to take. At last, thanks to the energy of Baguette, we were able to join them, and my two men helped to bring down the body, which was accomplished with difficulty. Sir George shook me by the hand, and I was indeed thankful to have been able to render this ser vice to a man whose energy and moral courage was a sub ject of admiration to me. Our provisions proved of great use to the exhausted party, who told us the rronchmen had refused the aid they had asked of them, and that owing to the bad weather they had gone astray near the Corridor. Jean Croy and Sir George were the only ones who had kept up their energy to the last. By 7 o'clock wo were all once more at the Grands Mulets. Leaving the body there under the charge of Dr. Depray, Sir George and I proceeded to Chamounix, he being anxious to return as soon as pos sible to England to carry the melancholy intelligence of the accident to his mother. Tho body arrived at Chamou nix on Saturday at 2 o'clock, and was conveyed to England on Sunday by Mr. Albert Young. " I remain, my dear Consul, over yours sincerely, " G. LOPPE.7 In a subsequent letter M. Loppe adds the follow ing details :- 4‘ In the first place, let mo declare myself to bo loss severe towards your countrymen than you have expressed yourself. Tho gentlemen in question were strong, robust, intelligent men, i&customed to glacier work—tho oldest especially might compote with the steadiest guides that I know ; at least such is the opinion of my friend Baguette, an expert in such matters, who has declared before a crowd of other guides that there are not 20 in Chamounix to compare with that gentleman. Coming to the question of not having taken any guides the charge is puerile. Nearly all the guides have made their glacier studios without being led by others, and they have sought out the road for themselves, whether by striking out ways for themselves or by adopting the ex perience of others. Last year we readily traversed theOber- Aargoek and a host of other peaks, and yet none of us had before passed by that route. The three gentlemen in ques tion might well expect alone to make the ascent of Mont Blanc ; they had neglected no precautions that were neces sary in such excursions. Provided with good clothing, good iron-tipped boots, they had but to follow the path traced in the snow by a party that had preceded them. They arrived safely at the summit of Mont Blanc by about half-past 10 a.m. The accident which subsequently oc curred is owing to a fortuitous circumstance quite indepen dent of the locality in which it happened. The heat, which on the previous day had been rather great, had caused the superficial snow on the Calotte to melt, which, however, the next day presented a hard and slippery surface. In seeking an easier passage from Les Petits Mulcts, the foot of ono of the brothers (Mr. Albert Young) slipped, and he began to slide down, dragging with him successively his two brothers. Their fall was in itself in no wise dangerous ; the two elder, who fell first, were simply stunned, and remained motionless for a few minutes ; but the youngest, who was the last, fell so unfortunately (no doubt on his head) that the vertebral column was broken between the eighth and ninth ribs, according to the surgeon's report. The height from which they fell was only from 20 to 80 feet. The moments which followed must halo been frightful for the survivors, but at that period their position was observed at Chamounix, and was judged to be perilous., In fact, the cold is so intense at that height that there is a risk of being frozen in an hour or two. Happily that mis fortune did not occur, as on that day the temperature was at that height not insupportable. These gentlemen were unable to say how long they remained near their brother's corpse, and I had to give them information upon that point from what I had observed through my telescope. Thus the rumours which bad been propagated concerning this catastrophe arise rather on account of the place whore it has happened. If it had occurred upon a second-rate moun tain, or even upon ordinary glaciers, there would have been only a commonplace notice of it in the daily journals, and no more would have been said. These three gentlemen had made a more dangerous ascent a few days before, hav ing passed over the Col de Sagoroux with two feet of snow on its summit." After giving some further details of the efforts which he with others made to afford assistance to the unfortunate tourists, M. Loppc adds that the THE BEST REMEDY FOR INDIGESTION.

The Alleged Embezzlement of ,ElO,OOO. At the Mansion-house, yesterday, Mr. William Charles Haddon, an elderly man, who for many years was employed as the manager of the London establishment of Messrs. Russell and Sons, the pro prietor of the Crown Iron -tube Works at Wednes bury, in Staffordshire, and who has been in custody for some time upon the charge of embezzling a large sum of money the property of his employers, was brought before Alderman Sir R. Carden for final examination. Mr. G. Lewis, of Ely-place, again attended on behalf of the prosecution, and Mr. Wontner, jun., of Bucklersbury, appeared for the defence. The whole of the volumnous depositions that had been taken at the previdus examinations were read over by one of the clerks, and it will be re membered that the main facts that appeared to be established.wgza. ,that the prisoner had received very large sums of money from various customers on ac count of the prosecutors, and that instead of remit ting the whole amount he so received he kept back considerable sums, and paid the cheques to his own private account to the Alliance and the Metropoli tan and Provincial Banks. It was also proved, With reference to one cheque for £lOl 55., which was made payable to order, that the prisoner signed the endorsement of Messrs. _Russell and Sons to this cheque, and had thus rendered himself amenable to a charge of forgery. Mr. S. Guy, the accountant to the prosecutors, and through whose examination of the books of the prisoner the alleged defalcations were discovered, was recalled at the request of Mr. Wontner, and questioned with reference to the alleged forgery of the endorsement to the cheque for £lOl ss. In answer to questions put to him, he said he was not prepared to state upon his oath that the prisoner would not have had authority under certain circum stances to endorse the name of Mr. Russell to a cheque he received on account of the firm, but he said he was able to state that he had no authority to do so with regard to this particular instrument. • Mr. Wontner then put a letter into the witness's hand, and asked him if it was not the handwriting of Mr. Russell. Witness replied that it was. Mr. Wontner then put the letter in evidence, and it was read. It was dated Dec. 7, 1865, and was to the effect that the prosecutor had sustained a great deal of mischief by reason of the bill transac tions in which he had been engaged with the pri soner, and expressed a fear that the latter was de voting more attention to his own speculations than to the prosecutors' business. The prosecutor also requested the prisoner to dispose of certain shares as well as he could, and retire some bills of exchange before they became due, and stated that he must get out of the bill transactions as quickly as pos sible. The prosecutor likewise stated in the letter that the prisoner was aware that he was heavily in debted to his bankers, and that in consequence of the large amonnt of bills that were outstanding in his name, inquiries were constantly being made by parties interested as to whether his firm was in a condition to pay so large an amount as was repre sented by the bills in question. The letter went on to state that such inquiries were calculated to make his o use , e power' lie possessed to raise money by drawing and endorsing bills of ex change to raise the necessary amount required for the purpose of retiring the other bills before they arrived at maturity. The witness, after hearing this letter read, stated that he still persisted in the answer he had previ ously given, that at the time this cheque came into the possession of the prisoner he had no authority to endorse it with the name of the prosecutor. In answer to questions put by Mr. Lewis, in re examination, Mr. Guy stated that the shares referred to in this letter were shares in the Hanoverian Petroleum Company, which the prosecutor had purchased through the earnest representations of the prisoner as to their value. The subject of these shares had nothing whatever to do with the charges that were now made against the prisoner. There was a con siderable loss on the shares in question, but that loss was in no way mixed up with the alleged defalca tions in the prisoner's accounts. Mr. Lewis said that this was all the evidence he proposed to offer, and he asked that the prisoner might be committed upon the charge of embezzlement, and also upon the one of forgery, in reference to his having placed the endorsement of the prosecutors upon the cheque for £lOl ss. without their authority. Mr. Wontner; addressing the Alderman, said that he should now, as he did on the former occasion, submit that without the evidence of Mr. Russell no case of embezzlement had been established against the prisoner. lie should be glad to be informed why Mr. Russell had not been put into the witness-box. Mr. Lewis—Because he cannot prove anything. It has been proved that the prisoner has received large sums of money on account of his employers, and that he has not only not paid them over, but that he has appropriated them to his own use by paying them into his own private banking account. If his learned friend wished to examine Mr. Russell, he was present, and he might call him as a witness if he thought proper to do so. Mr. Wontner should take care to call him at - 1 the proper time, but at 'Resent what he had to con tend was, that in the absence of his evidence there was nothing that would justify the magistrate in coming to the conclusion that the prisoner had com mitted any act of embezzlement. It was not enough to show that a servant had not paid over certain sums that he was alleged to have received, but it must be shown in point of fact the master had not received the money. He said he thought he was justified in stating that the letter that had been read threw a flood of light upon the character of the con nexion that existed between the prosecutors and the prisoner, and that the prosecution were bound to call the former as a witness ; and he could not at the same time help expressing his opinion that it was a scandalous proceeding for Mr. Russell to be seated in court during the whole of these proceed ' ings, and not be called to give evidence. his part to prevent Mr. Russell Mr. Lewis denied that there wa ll s farnnyminhteeitoenxoan. andhim h wase not min callexa mined,hdethraeatltlyheknonewly nrneathsoinnghaetdaildl rep th ea a t t e had been examined, had the entire about the matter. His accountant,management h ofo the accounts. Mr. Wontner said he should be prepared to show at a future time that Mr. Russell knew all about the matter, and he urged upon the alderman that without his testimony there was no proof that any act of em bezzlement had been committed by the prisoner. Sir R. Carden said he had listened carefully to the whole of the evidence brought forward against the prisoner, and he was clearly of opinion that it was his duty to send the case before a jury for them to decide. Wontner then said he trusted that, under all the circumstances, the prisoner would be allowed to go at large upon bail. He was about to advance some arguments in support of the application, when he was stopped by Sir R. Carden, who said it would be quite useless for him to do so, as he had made up his mind that the case was one of such a nature that he should not be justified in accepting bail.
