Meptional transactions are, how ever, spoken of at 2* per cent., but they are only in bankers' short-dated acceptances.

There was an influx of £16,000 in bar gold at the Bank yesterday. The English and Foreign Credit Company's report states that there is a realised balance to the Cr edit of profit and loss of £11,562, which the directors recommend should be treated as follows, viz., £4,876 in payment of a dividend of 7s. Id. per share, free of income tax, being at the rate of 10 per cent• per annum ; £5,000 to a reserved fund, which it is proposed to invest and not to employ in the business of the company ; and the balance, £1,686, to be carried forward.

The following witnesses wore examined this forenoon : Alex. 111'Call, superintendent of the central district of the Glasgow police, said he apprehended the prisoner on tho 20th March. Two letters, produced, were found upon him. Witnessvisited the prisoner's house on the 21st, and found several diaries in the consulting-room, and recetved the bottle produced from Mary M'Leod. The bottle was about half 6111 of a brownish-coloured liquid. On the 22d witness again visited the house, and took posses sion of several paper packages in the consulting-room. A quart bottle of ginger wine was in a locked press in the prisoner's pocket. Witness also found a phial in the open press in the consulting-room with the letters " timon" on the torn label. Three other phials, two corked and one with a glass stopper, were in the same press. Another phial was on the mantel-piece of the ante-drawing room. Witness received a quantity of bed linen and body clothing from Mary Patterson. On Saturday the 25th of March, witness found two pass-books in the locked press in the consulting-room.—(All these articles, and those sub sequently mentioned, were produced.] Witness handed some of the articles to the sheriff's officer, and the phials to Dr. Penny. In a desk in the consulting room witness found three prescriptions, some letters in a bookcase, and other prescriptions on a table, all in the same room. Cross examined—Witness did notremove 35 bottles from the locked press, which included brandy, whisky, and chloroform. The medicines were in the unlocked press. Those bottles were examined by two scientific gentlemen in the house. The keys of the consulting-room and of the locked press were afterwards given to the prisoner's bro ther Charles, and witness did not know what had become of the 35 bottles. John Murray, sheriff's officer, Glasgow, said he received the clothes and linen from the previous witness, and handed them to Dr. Maclagan. A parcel of tapioca which witness received from Mary. Patterson he sealed and handed to Dr. Penny. Witness obtained a quantity of ta pioca from the grocer's from whom that found in the pH ' sonar's house had been bought, and gave it to Dr. Penny. John Campbell, manager of the branch of the Glasgow Apothecaries Company in Sauehiehall-street, said he had known the prisoner for four years. Ho had made pur chases, at witness's establishment only, within the last nine months, and had a running account. Witness pro duced from the books a copy of the prisoner's account, which contained the following items :—September 19th, 1864, ten grains of strychnine ; November 4, half ounce bottle of tincture of conium malculatum,—that is, hem lock ; November 18, an ounce of laudanum, and an ounce of tartarised antimony, or tartar emetic ; November 24, an ounce of tincture of aconite ; December 8, an ounce of tincture of aconite ; December 9, an ounce of tincture of conium ; February 4, 1865, an ounce of tincture of conium ; February 7, an ounce of tartarised antimony and an ounce of tincture of aconite ; February 9, an ounce of tincture of aconite ; February 11, two ounces of tincture of digitalis ; February 18, an ounce of tincture of conium. All those articles were poisons. The pri soner invariably got or ordered the medicines him self. Two grains of tartar emetic was an ordinary dose. In an ounce there were 435 k grains. Witness never before served an ounce of tartar emetic to a medical mail in Glasgow. It was an unusually large quantity, and struck witness as being a strange circumstance. Two ounces would be as much as witness would serve to the whole of the medical profession in Glasgow in 12 months, and he had a large dispensing business. On one occasion it was 'leming's tincture of aconite that was served to the prisoner, which was six times as strong as the ordinary tincture. Chloroform was the chief article served to the prisoner, and amounted to 1320 z. between July 13 and bee. 9, 1864. That was a very unusual quantity, and more than all the rest of witness's customers put together. In the course of hiu 22 years' experience as a dispensing apothecary ho never knew so much poison furnished to any medical man. The labels on the bottles produced were partly destroyed, but witness identified the letters " aco" on one of them as his assistant's writing. John Currie, chemist, Sauchiehall-stroet, Glasgow, said he had known the prisoner for some time, and had served him with medicines. Witness had made an extract from his book of the prisoner's account, which contained the following items :—February 18, 1865, two ounces of solu tion of morphia, and an ounce of Fleming's tincture of aconite ; March 8, a solution of atropine, one drachm (with one grain to drachm) ; March 9, one drachm of solution of atropine (with two grains to drachm) ; March 13, half an ounce of Fleming's tincture of aconite ; March 14, one drachm of solution of atropine (with two grains to drachm) ; March 16, one drachm and five grains of solution of atro pine (with five grains to drachm). Witness supplied several of the above, and he was certain that all the rest were served to the prisoner. The prisoner usually gave the orders himself, but sometimes sent a note. Dr. Maclagan, profeSsor of medical jurisprudence in the University of Edinburgh, said ho had been a medical prac titioner for many years, and had given great attention to the toxicological department of chemistry. On the 21st March witness made a post-mortem examination of Mrs. Pritchard's body, in conjunction with Dr. Littlejohn, and found it presented no appearance of a recent morbid action beyond a little irritation of the alimentary canal ; and nothing to account for death. They, therefore, re moved the internal organs for further examination. On the 11th April witness, in conjunction with his assistant, Dr. Gamgee, and Dr. Littlejohn, subjected to chemical examination the various organs and contents of organs removed from Mtn. Pritchard's body. It having been stated that antimony was suspected, witness made a trial experiment immediately on his return from the post-mor tem examination, with three drachms of the urine, and obtained unmistakeable evidence of. the presence of anti mony. Being obliged to go to London to attend the funeral of a relative, he requested Dr. Gamgeo, his assistant, with Dr. Littlejohn, to carry on the preliminary process in his absence. Dr. Gamgoe said he had been assistant to Professor Maclagan since April, 1863, and had had considerable ex perience of chemical analysis. Professor Maclagau went to London on March 22, and returned on the 24th. He directed witness to evaporate what had been taken from Mrs. Pritchard s body to dryness, and to digest a certain portion in filtered water acidulated with tartaric acid. Two ounces and five drachms of fluid were thus obtained, in which antimony would be found if it were present in the intestines. An ounce of that fluid was submitted to a stream of sulphuretted hydrogen gas, and a yellow precipitate was obtained, which was collected and washed, and reserved for Dr. Maclagan. The remainder of tho tartaric and solution was also reserved. Dr. Littlejohn corroborated the statements of the previ ous witness. Professor Maclagan was re-called, and read his reports, which described the process to which the yellow precipi tato was subjected. Tho result, he said, was unequivocal evidence of the presence of antimony, and he came to the conclusion that the antimony he found had been admin istered in the form of tartar emetic, one of the two forms in which antimony is soluble in water. Ho found antimony in the urine, the bile, the blood, and the liver. Traces of antimony were also found on several chemises and other articles which had been stained with urine. Witness also made an examination of the body of Mrs. Taylor, and subsequently an analysis of her viscera. Tho body was found healthy, and there wore no external appearances to account for death. The chemical analysis showed no traces of vegetable poison, but revealed the presence of antimony in the alimentary canal, the blood, the liver, the muscular substance of the heart, the spleen, the rectum, the brain, and other parts. ••. . „ Cross-examined—The first experiment with the urine was by Reinsch's process, which gave a violet deposit. Witness would not consider the analysis worked out con clusively by that experiment alone, ae it was better to carry assurance to the minds of other people by adding other cor roborative tests. Witness atteinpted to estimate the quan tity of antimony in the urine, but the amount yielded was too small to enable him to weigh it with sufficient accuracy. Re-examined—Witness gave Dr. Penny portions of the organs found in the two bodies. Witness made another examination of portions of Mrs. Pritchard's body last week, and again obtained an orange precipitate, which yielded the sulphuret of antimony. He also obtained a black pre cipitate, which indicated the presence of sulphuret of mer cury. By another corroborative experiment upon, fresh material never manipulated before, witness got more sul phuret of antimony. The whole contents of the intestines yielded 5.712 grains of tartar emetic. Cross-examined again-1 1 1 , itness also found mercury on making the last-named experiment. Professor Penny, of Glasgow, said he analysed the -vis cera of both bodies and the articles found in the prisoner's house. He found antimony and mercury in the viscera— antimony in the tapioca, and antimony and aconite in the bottle of Battley's solution found in Mrs. Taylor's pocket. Antimony was found in some of the phials taken from the prisoner's house. The powders prescribed by Dr. Pater son accounted for the mercury. Professor Maclagan, of Edinburgh, recalled, said his conclusions were that both deaths must be ascribed to an timony given in repeated small doses. All the symptoms described by the witnesses respecting the illnesses agreed with poisoning by antimony. Nothing indicated gastric the other. Witness s fe u v s e p r ec i t n ed th a e one stro as n c gd e ep o re r ss a rn o g pl p e o x i y so i n n lik e aconite at the last in Mrs. Taylor's case, and saw no symptom of opium. Professor Penny and Dr. Meiktejohn said that, after hearing the evidence, they ascribed death to chronic poisoning by antimony, but found the influence of a strong narcotic also in Mrs. Taylor's case. Mr. Hugh Orr, bank agent, Glasgow, and Mr. H. Bal main, assistant manager of the Clydesdale Banking Com pany, said the prisoner's bank accounts were overdrawn. Mr. W. Finlay, secretary to the Scottish Equitable Assur ance Society, said the prisoner had insured hiS life for £1,500, and borrowed £255 upon the policy. _ Mr. D. J. Macbriar said he was trustee for £2,000 for Mrs. Taylor. In July last she lent the prisoner £5OO to wards buying a house. In her will she left two-thirds of her property to Mrs. Pritchard and her family. The prisoner's statements before Sheriff Alison were read, in which he denied ever administering antimony. This concluded the case for the prosecution, and the Court adjourned. PROROGATION . OF PARLIAMENT. THIS DAY. The prorogation of Parliament by commission is invariably a dull affair, and the ceremony this morning, if it be possible, partook more than usually of the sombre element. At the time the Royal Commissioners entered the house and took their seats in front of the throne there were only two or three peers present, and the strangers were represented by about the same number of ladies. HOUSE OF LORDS-THIS DAY. Tho House of Lords mot this day at twelve o'clock, and the Speaker and members of the Lower House was sum moned to the bar of their lordships house. ROYAL COMMISSION. The Royal assent was given by Commission to the fol lowing bills—Consolidated Fund (Appropriation), Admialty Powers and Dockyard Ports Regulation, Prison Penalties, Law Amendment, Saltash and • Callington Railway, Laun ceston, Bodmin and Wadebridge Junction, North Kent Rail way, Afon Valley Railway, Alexandra (Newport) Dock, Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire Railway (Ex tension, &c.), Surrey and Sussex Junction Railway, Fish guard Bay Railway and Harbour, Waterford Passage Railway and Ferry, and Dublin Metropolitan Junction Railway. The Commissioners wore Earl Granville, Earl St. Ger mins, Lord Wensleydale, Viscount Sidney, and Viscount Eversley. THE ROYAL SPEECH. Earl GRANVILLE then read the Royal Speoch, which was as follows: • MY LORDS AND GENTLEMEN, We are commanded by her Majesty to release you from further attendance in Parliament, and, at the same time, to convey to you her Majesty's acknowledgments for the zeal and assiduity with which you have applied yourselves to the discharge of your duties in the session now brought to a close. We are further commanded to inform you that, as the present Parliament has now so nearly lasted the period assigned by law for the duration of Par liaments that you could not enter upon another yearly session with advantage to the public interest, it is her Majesty's intention immediately to dissolve the present Parliament, and to issue writs for the calling of a new one. But her Majesty cannot take leave of you - without commanding us to express to you her Majesty's deep sense of the zeal and public spirit which, dur ing the six years of your existence as a Parliament, you have constantly displayed in the discharge of important functions, and tendering to you her Ma jesty's warm acknowledgments for the many good measures which you have submitted for her accept ance, and which greatly conduced to the diminution of the public burthens, and to the encouragement of industry, to the increase of the wealth, and to the promotion of the welfare and happiness of her Majesty's people. We are commanded to inform you that her Majesty's relations with foreign Powers are friendly and satisfactory, and she trusts there are no ques tions pending which are likely to lead to any dis turbance of the peace of Europe., Her Majesty rejoices that the Civil War in North America has ended, and she trusts that the evils caused by that long conflict may be repaired, and that prosperity may be restored in the States which have suffered from the contest. Her Majesty regrets that the Conferences and communications between her Majesty's North Ame rican Provinces on the subject of those Provinces in a Confederation have not yet led to a satisfactory result. Such a union would afford additional strength to those Provinces, and give facilities for many internal improvements. Her Majesty has received gratifying assurances of the devoted loyalty of her North American subjects. ller Majesty rejoices at the continual tranquillity and increasing prosperity of her Indian dominions ; and she trusts that the large supply which those territories will afford of the raw material of manu facturing industry, together with the termination of the civil war in the United States of North America, will prevent the recurrence of the distress which long prevailed among the manufacturing population of some of the northern counties. GENTLEMEN OF THE HOUSE OF COMMONS, Her Majesty commands us to convey to you her warm acknowledgments for the liberal supplies which you have granted to her Majesty for the service of the present year, and towards the permanent de fence of her Majescy's dockyards and arsenals. The Commercial Treaty which her Majesty has recently concluded with Prussia and the other States composing the German Commercial Union has, by her Majesty's commands, been laid before you. Her Majesty trusts that this Treaty will contribute to the development of commercial relations between this country and Germany, and will promote the interests of the several countries which are parties to it. Her Majesty commands us to assure you that her attention will continue to be directed to all such measures as may be calculated to extend and to place on a sound footing the trade between her Majesty's dominions and foreign countries. MT LORDS AND GENTLEMEN, Her Majesty has given her cordial assent to many measures of public usefulness, the result of your labours in the session now brought to a close. The act for rendering the expenses incurred for the support of the poor chargeable upon the whole of a union instead of being confined to separate parishes, will diminish the hardship inflicted upon the labouring poor by reason of removal from parish to parish. The Partnership Amendment Act will tend to encourage the profitable employment of capital. _ The Courts of Justice Building and Concentra tion Acts, will, it is hoped, lessen the expense and shorten the duration of legal proceedings. The Clerical Subscription Act, founded on the recommendation of a royal commission, will remove objections which have been felt to the number and variety of the forms of subscription and declaration hitherto requireed of the clergy. ' The management and discipline of prisons will be improved by the Act for the Consolidation and Amendment of the Laws on that subject. The County Court Equitable Jurisdiction Act will give a useful extension to the local administra tion of justice. The Act for Consolidating the Comptrollership of the Exchequer with the Board of Audit will tend to increase the efficiency of the arrangements for auditing the public accounts. The Act for Establishing the Record of Titles in Ireland will render more easy and secure the trans fer of land. The Act for Amending the Laws which govern the Constabulary Force in Ireland will tend to pre vent the recurrence of such disorders as happened last year at Belfast. The Colonial Naval Defence Act has removed restrictions which have hitherto prevented the colo nies from taking effectual measures for their own defence against attacks by sea. Her Majesty has also gladly given her assent to many other useful measures of less general im portance. The electors of the United Kingdom will soon be called upon again to choose their representatives in Parliament ; and her Majesty fervently prays that the blessing of Almighty God may attend their proceedings, and may guide them towards the attainment of the object of her Majesty's constant solicitude—the welfare and happiness of her people. Earl GRANVILLE then, in the usual formal manner, declared the Parliament prorogued until the 12th inst., and the proceedings terminated. HOUSE OF COMMONS—Mrs DAY. The SPEAKER took the chair at 12 o'clock, and imme diately afterwards the Usher of the Black Rod appeared at the table, and summoned [the Commons to the House of Peers to hear the Royal assent given by commission to several public and private bills, and also her Majesty's most gracious Speech on the prorogation of Parliament. On the return of the Speaker to the house, the Queen's Speech was read, and, several members having shaken hands with the Speaker, the Session of 1865 came to a close. THE WEATHER.—At one o'clock this afternbon the thermometer in the shade stood at 84—nine degrees above summer heat.

The trial was resumed this morning. In conse quence of its being known that the case for the de fence would be opened the court was more than ordinarily crowded. Amongst the witnesses examined on the part of the prisoner were his eldest son and daughter. The object sought to be proved was that the prisoner used the poisons he had pur chased for medicinal purposes, and also that Mrs. Taylor had been for a long time past in the habit of purchasing qua9tities of Battley's seda tive solution for her own personal use. The counsel for the prisoner also endeavoured to prove that the prisoner and his wife had lived on affectionate terms, and for this purpose Mrs. Pritchard's brother was examined. • In all nearly 12 witnesses were examined, but nothing beyond the above was adduced. The defence closed at 20 minutes past 12 o'clock. The prisoner was deeply affected during the examination of his children, and when the Court adjourned for refreshments he had to be assisted from the dock. It is not expected that the summing up will com mence before to-morrow. The verdict, it is supposed, will not be delivered before late to-morrow night or early on Saturday morning.

An express train from Bruges ran into an ordinary one from Ostend, breaking the locomotive and several carriages of the latter. About 40 pas sengers were more or less injured, but no life was lost.

But his hospitality and his openheartedness, especially towards those who shared his tastes for natural history, knew no bounds; nor had he, we fancy, an enemy on earth, except the spirit of the Protestant religion against which he was perhaps the more indignant, because he conceived it to be the cause of his ancestors' sufferings. But to his Protestant fellow-countrymen, and even to Eng lish clergymen, he was always frank, open, honest, and generous, and he could always distinguish between the man whom he loved and the opinious which he detested.— Once a Week.
