This bankrupt was described as a stock and share broker of Crown-court, Threadneedle-street, and to-day he came up for proof of debts and cbdice of assignees.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET. BRUTAL ATTACK ON THE POLlCE.—Eugeno Stack, a rough fellow, was charged, before Mr. Tyrwhitt, with stealing some articlos, the property of Edward Hinds, of 22, Fitzroy-market, and violently assaulting police-con stable Rogers, 87 E, and Robertson, 70 E ; and James Smith, a powerfully-built young man, was charged with violently assaulting the same constables, and attempting to rescue Stack. Caroline Hands, of 22, Fitzroy-market, said—Yesterday afternoon I saw Stack coming from my kitchen with something under his coat. I afterwards missed a shirt and other articles. I afterwards went with 87 E and gave Stack into custody. He then knocked the constable down and kicked him violently. _ _ _ John Rogers, 87 E, said—About six o'clock yesterday evening I was called to take Stack into custody, on suspicion of stealing a shirt. He said it would take the loser all his time to find the article. He then went a little way quietly, but afterwards said he would go no further, threw himself on the ground, pulled my feet from under me, and threw me back, and my head came• in contact with the kerb. I got up and we had a struggle, and he then knocked me down at least a dozen times, and kicked me all over the body. Smith then came up and took hold of my armlet, and pulled me away from Stack several times, got my truncheon from me, and struck me several times with it on the arms, covering them with bruises. Another person not in custody then came up and got his hand down my stock and nearly strangled me. The struggle continued for about three-quarters of an hour, and on another constable coming up, Stack became more violent than before, knocking us down several times, and Smith and the other man jumped on our backs. Our hats and belts were taken from us. At last several constables came to our assistance, and the prisoners were taken to the station. The following certificate was handed to Mr. Tyrwhitt : " This is to certify that John Rogers 87 E is suffering from contusions, and is unfit for duty. " GEORGE Ross, M.D., Surgeon To the E Division of Metropolitan Police. " 11, Hant-street." Edward Robertson, 70 E—Seeing that 87 E was being badly used in John-street, Tottenham-court-road, last night, I went to his assistance. I found they had got him down, and were knocking him about and kicking him. I caught hold of Stack, when he struck me on the forehead and got me down and kicked me in the ribs. Smith then jumped on my back, and I had to leave go of Stack, and then Stack kicked me several times. At last the prisoners were got to the station. A similar certificate to the one above was here put in. John burgess, 83 E, corroborated a great portion of the above evidence, and said there was a crowd of at least 800 persons assembled, and the staff and belt of Rogers were taken away. Ho took Smith to the station. Mr. John Burrows, of 76, John-street, 'Tottenham-court road, houso decorator—l saw Stack and Rogers down Stack ill-used Rogers by kicking and striking him, and trying to bite him. I assisted in holding him till assistance came. I was knocked down several times, and saw Smith active in hounding on Stack's associates to illuse the constable. Smith pulled the constable from Stock several times, and had the constable's staff and belt in his hand. 1 got the staff and belt from him, and took them to the station. Mr. Tyrwhitt—The magistrates are always obliged to the inhabitants who come forward in these cases. It is for the sake of the constables as well as the inhabitants. Mr. W. Barton, of 3, Hanley-grove, Pimlico, having given similar evidence to Mr. Burrows, Mr. Tyrwhitt remanded the prisoners, both of whom, it was stated, had been several times in custody for violent assaults on the police. MARKETS—This Day. MARK-LANE. Fresh up to our market to•-day tho arrivals of English wheat were small. Owing to the fineness of the weather and the favourable accounts respecting the crops, the trade was very inactive both for red and white produce. In prices very little change took place, but their tendency was decidedly in favour of buyers. With foreign wheat the market was fairly supplied. Generally speaking, sales progressed slowly, but prices ruled stationary. Floating cargoes of grain moved off slowly at late rates. The market was very moderately supplied with barley, yet the trade ruled quiet on former terms. Malt was in slow request at late rates, The supply of oats on sale was tolerably large. Good and fine qualities wero firm in price, otherwise the trade was dull. Beans and peas ruled firm, at full currencies. There was a steady demand for flour, at late rates. ARRIVALS THIS WEEK. Wheat.

The Diamond Company's steamer Kaffraria, Captain Cummings, arrived here this evening from the Cape with 53 passengers, a general cargo, and a mail. She left Natal on April 27 ; Algoa Bay, May 3 ; Table Bay, 6 ; and St. Helena, 15. The war excitement along the frontier has proved to have been the consequence of a false alarm. The uneasiness at Grahamstown, however, was so great that the members of Parliament in that city urged the Governor to move to the frontier at once, and to postpone the assembly of Parlia ment, which was summoned to meet at Capetown on the 27th April. Sir P. E. Wodehouse replied that all the information received of late went to show that the frontier panic was unfounded, and that the excitement caused by it was dying out. The Government, he said, did not believe that the Fingoes, if they were net molested, would rise against them. For some weeks increasing efforts had been made to agitate the public by rumours and misrepresentations. The proper place for his explanation was, he said, in Parliament, and he declined to create more distrust and cause incon venience by postponing the meeting. The Gover nor's reply created another excitement in Grahams town, and an indignation meeting was held at which resolutions deprecating the course followed by his excellency were adopted. The Government policy on native affairs is disapproved and condemned on all sides in the colony, east and west. Parliament was opened on the 27th April. The Governor frankly stated his reasons for having recourse to the a o n bt d ai e n xp t l l a le in a e n d n h e i x s a f t r io o n nti o e f r policy ra i r n i a g t e o n t e h ra e l . colo ri n h y e , House of Assembly had adjourned for a werk. The appointment of librarian at the Home-office. lately vacant by the resignation of Mr. J. H. Kitching, will not be filled up, the office, which was worth £6OO per annum, having been abolished. The former duties will in future be alloted to Mr. F. S. Leslie and Knit C. Arbuth not, both of the Home-office, hut without extra salary. THE ORDER, OF THE BATE (From the Court Newsman.)

Admiral Sir Fairfax Moresby was then received at the door of the Throne Room by Lord Lyons and Sir Harry Jones, the two Junior Knights Grand Cross present, and was conducted between them to her Majesty's representative, preceded by Bath King of Arms (bearing the Ensign of a Knight Grand Cross on a crimson velvet cushion), and by the Gentleman Usher. Bath King of Arms presented the Riband and Badge to his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, who invested the admiral with the same, by placing the riband over his right shoulder, and, having in vested him with the star of his dignity in the Order, Sir Fairfax Moresby retired.

Two special general meetings of this company were held yesterday at the Bridge-house Hotel, Lon don-bridge, at which the Hon. J. Byng, the chair man, presided: Mr. Smiles, the secretary, read the first notice convening a special meeting in accordance with the standing orders of the House of Lords, for the pur pose of considering a bill for authorising the South- Eastern Railway Company to make new lines of railway by way of extension of their railway at Greenwich, and thence to Woolwich and at Cran brook respectively, to acquire additional lands, to raise further moneys, and for other purposes. Mr. Toogood, the solicitor, read the heads of the bill. The CHAIRMAN, in moving a formal resolution, approving the bill, explained that the project had met with some opposition in Parliament, in the course of which the authorities of the Admiralty had indicated the course of a line to which they would not object, and consequently the committee on the bill had sanctioned both ends of the line, leaving the suggested deviation from the objection able portion of the line at Greenwich-park to be settled hereafter between the authorities and the company. Mr. WATKIN, M.P., seconded the motion. Mr. ADAMS moved an amendment to the effect that all further proceedings with respect to the bill be postponed. On a show of hands the CHAIRMAN declared the amendment lost, and the motion for the approval of the bill carried. He said it would be necessary to take a poll, which would l oe commenced imme diately and closed at 4 o'clock. The result would be declared the next day at noon. Mr. G. Smith and Mr. S. Kerr were appointed scrutineers. The CHAIRMAN said that the second special gene ral meeting of which notice had been given, was to be held in compliance with a requisition signed by Mr. J. J. Hamilton, and nearly 200 other proprietors. A requisition signed by 30 proprietors, holding £2,000 stock each, or altogether £60,000 ordinary stock in the company, would have been sufficient ; but in consequence of the circulars issued by the proprietor at the head of the list, 197 proprietors out of the 4,860 constituting the company had signed it, some of them being large shareholders, and representing in the whole about £300,000 stock in the company. The Secretary then read the second notice, which stated that the meeting was convened in compliance with the terms of a requisition presented to the Board signed by the legal number of proprietors holding an ample amount of stock, for the purpose of appointing a committee of investigation to in quire into the following transactions—viz., the sale of the steamer Eugenie, the purchases of the steamers Victoria, Albert Edward, and Alexandria, the sale of the steamer Queen of the French, the contract for the construction of the line from Lewisham to Tunbridge, and the traffic arrange ments with the London, Chatham, and Dover Rail way Company. The CHAIRMAN remarked that owing to the state ments and persistent course adopted by Mr. Hamil ton in his circulars and letters to the shareholders, it appeared that many persons had been persuaded that something must be wrong in connexion with the company's affairs. The Board thought it de sirable that some of the largest proprietors who had supported Mr. Hamilton's requisition by their signa ture should be also on the committee of inves tigation, and he hoped the shareholders would agree to it. There were legal proceedings now pending against Mr. Hamilton and others in respect of very serious allegations made against some of the direc tors and officers of the company, and it was there fore desirable that nothing should be done by the proprietors which would interfere with those legal proceedings. The directors were anxious for the most searching and ample inquiry, which he trusted would convince every reasonable person that there was no ground whatever for these allegations. It was proposed, in accordance with the requisition, that three of the largest holders of stock in the com pany should be appointed a committee, including two proprietors who had signed the requisition, to undertake the inquiry, and report the result of their investigation to a future meeting of the company, so as not to interfere with or prejudice legal proceedings. Mr. A. BEArrIE, a director, said he would second the motion, and stated that they had been legally advised to postpone the appointment of the committee, but the directors were anxious that these unfounded charges should be completely refuted. Mr. HIRST then proposed that Mr. Bibby, of Liverpool, who, with his brother, held £150,000 stock in the company, and had not signed the requi sition, and Mr. C. Haig, of Rochdale, who held £BO,OOO, and Mr. J. Chadwick, of Manchester, who held £30,000 stock in the company, both hav ing signed Mr. Hamilton's requisition, be appointed the committee of investigation. Mr. HAMILTON said he preferred appointing his own committee, particularly as he had been intrusted with 1,200 proxies, representing something like £2,000,000 of capital in the country. He concluded by moving that a committee be appointed with full powers to investigate every matter and thing speci fied in the requisition, and to examine persons, books, &c. Mr. ADAMS seconded the motion. After some observations by Mr. Claypolo and other proprietors in favour of a full investigation, Mr. WATKIN, deputy-chairman, gave a full ex planation of the various libellous matters that had been published and were now pending legal pro ceedings. He said this was a time in the history of the company that required the utmost care and at tention cn the part of directors and shareholders with regard to the proper conduct of their affairs. They would soon have a total capital of £20,000,000 to deal with, and so would the London, Chatham, and Dover Railway Company soon have their lines completed, and also a capital of £20,000,000. It was therefore of the utmost consequence that agree ments between the two companies should be very carefully framed, so as to be mutually beneficial, and that the directors should be enabled to do the best they could for the proprietors under the cir cumstances in which Parliament had placed the com pany. The CHAIRMAN then put the resolution for the ap pointment of a committee consisting of three of the largest shareholders, two of them having signed the requisition to investigate the transactions mentioned, and to make their report so soon as in their opinion it would be desirable to do so, considering the legal proceedings pending, Upon which Mr. HAMILTON moved his amend ment ; but on a show of hands the original motion was carried. Mr. HAMILTON demanded a poll, which was opened at once, the result to be declared at noon this day. A vote of thanks to the chairman concluded the proceedings.

Jefferson Davis is expected to be conveyed to Washington to-morrow to be immediately ar raigned. The statement that he is manacled has neither been officially nor semi-officially denied. - Secretary Mallory and Mr. Howell Cobb have been arrested. During the conspiracy trial Louis Bates testified that at his house in Charlotte, on April 19, Brecken ridge told Davis that he regretted Mr. Lincoln's assassination, and that the event was unfortunate for the Southern people. Davis is said to have re plied that if it were to be done at all it were better that it were well done ; and if the same were done to Johnson, the beast, and also Stanton, the job would then be complete. Other witnesses testified that Thomson, Clay, and Halcomb were implicated in the shipment of in fected clothing. Numerous witnesses have been examined with the view of impairing the evidence for the prosecution. A party of Mexican emigrants connected with the barque Brontes have been arrested at San Francisco charged with conspiring to seize the Peruvian steamer Colon, and ,put her to sea as a Mexican privateer. The plan contemplated the seizure of a French transport. The agent of Juarez who advanced money to the leaders, finding the money likely to be misapplied, informed against them. The leaders stated that the seizure of the Colon was understood between the Mexican and Peruvian authorities. The World states that Admiral Goldsborough's fleet, of thirty to sixty vessels, comprising the iron sides and two double turreted monitors, will leave for the Mediterranean in the beginning of July next. Admiral Gordon's . fleet has arrived at Charleston, en route for the Brazilian waters. The Belgian and City of Baltimore have arrived out. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT HOUSE OF COMMONS—Tms DAY. The SPEAKER took the chair at half-past 12 o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The following bills were read a third time and passed : —Glasgow and South Western Railway (Additional Powers), London and North Western Railway (Additional Powers, England), and South Wales and Great Western Direct Railway. The Lords' amendments to the following bills were con sidered and agreed to :—Belfast Gas, Bristol and Exeter Railway, Bristol Joint Station, Carnarvon New Water, Great Eastern and London and Blackwall Railways, Ham mersmith and City Railway, London and South Western Railway (New Lines in Surrey), London and South Western Railway (Pirbright, Aldershot, and Farnham Junction), and London and South Western Railway (Tor rington Extension). PRISONS' BILL. The house then went into committee on this bill. The remaining clauses were agreed to. On the schedule relating to punishment, Mr. MUNDAY thought that power should be given to inflict severe punishment on women, more than was done at present. He proposed an amendment, allowing the hair to be cut short in extreme cases. Mr. BRISCOE opposed the amendment. Mr. BARROW said that extreme cases did sometimes occur. He know of a case where a woman of the most violent temper was confined in jail, and the authorities wore powerless to prevent her screaming and singing obscene songs at the top of her voice. Sir D. LEIGHTON said he was aware of a case where a woman was so violent that it was necessary to put her in irons and handcuffs to protect the prison officers from her violence. Sho remained in that state for fourteen days before she begged pardon. On another occasion she threatened the matron, and told her she had not the power to flog her. However, the matron, who had just at this time resigned her appointment as she was going to be married, hearing the woman going on in the most disorderly manner went into the ward and gave her a sound flogging, and she never created a disturbance again. The conduct of the matron was illegal, that he knew, and she would have been discharged had matters been different ; but the matter showed that severe punish ment had its virtue. A division, however, took place on the olause, the original amendment having been withdrawn in favour of inserting some words suggested by the hon. member for Northampton. Ayes Noos Majority The amendment was negatived. With rospect to the religious instruction of prisoners, Sir G. GREY said the provisions of the Prison Ministers Act was embodied in tho bill under discussion. According to which each prisoner on entering a prison was called upon to state his belief. There was no compulsory attendance required at particular periods by all prisoners at one plane of religious instruction. _ _ _ The schedules and preamble were then agreed to, and the bill was ordered to be reported to the house with amend ments. The report was ordered to be brought up on Thursday next. The sitting of the house was then suspended. The house resumed at 6 o'clock, and was (LEFT SITTING.) ba Assistant-Surgeon, vice Richard Westrop Saunders, M.D., who resigns. 21st Foot—Lieut.

It is to be hoped, for the honour of the English Turf, that the rumour is without foundation; forif Chattanooga should defeat Gladiateur in France, what will they say in England in regard to the way the horse was performed on in both the Two Thousand and Derby ? However, there is no accounting for the wonderful things that take place nowadays on the turf, as Blink Bonny, be longing to Mr. I'Anson, run nowhere in the Two Thou sand, won the Derby and also the Oaks, beating Imperieuse by nearly half a mile, but the latter beat the former easily in the St. Leger. The same happened with Fille de l'Air, who ran nowhere in the Two Thousand, but won the Oaks easily. A FRESH MAN. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE—This day.

HANDEL FESTIVAL.—The last but one of the chorus rehearsals of the London division of the Handel Festival Choir takes place at Exeter Hall this evening, when the choruses of the Selection day will be rehearsed. THE COUNT OF PARIS AND THE LATE PRESIDENT LINCOLN.—The following is a translation of a letter addressed by the Count de Paris to Mr. Sumner, relative to the death of President Lincoln:—"You were at the death bed of the good man so cruelly snatched from the affec tion and confidence of a great nation in the fatal night of the 14th April; you received the last sigh of him in whom all the friends of America saw the worthy representative of its free institutions. You will, then, understand why I ad dress myself to you to-day, and why, after having read the sad details of this frightful tragedy, I want to speak to you of my profound emotion, of my deep grief. I would not pretend to mingle my voice with all the testimonies of sincere sympathy which Europe is unanimous in offering to your citizens if the personal relations which I had with Mr. Lincoln, and which will henceforth be one of the most precious recollections of my youth, did not add in my case to the greatness of this public calamity. My brother and I shall always recall with gratitude the manner in which he received us, four years ago, in the Federal army, the oppor tunity which he then offered to us of serving a cause to which we were attached by our family traditions, oursym pathies as Frenchmen, and our political convictions. Those who knew Mr. Lincoln in those times of trial, in which everything seemed to conspire against the safety of the Republic, will not forget the simple and serious coun tenance of the honest man who, without personal ambi tion, ever sustained by the profound sentiment of his du ties, merited the enviable title of great citizen. And when the terrible crisis, during which the destinies of America were in his hands, s h a ll belong to history, and th e bl oo d y trace of it shall have been effaced by the rapid develop ment of a reinvigorated nation and a regenerated society, men will remember the benefits which have survived him, of slavery astroyed and liberal institutions preserved, and do honour to Mr. Lincoln. In the contest against slavery his name will remain illustrious by those of the indefati gable apostles who fought before him and who will finish his work. But it will be said of him that he assured the maintenance of the Union, and passed through civil war without departing from tho respect due to liberty and legality ; and that in the hour of danger ho was the first magistrate of a people prompt to recognise in the full exer cise of the largest liberty the inexhaustible source of the national energy and perseverance. Pardon me, Sir, this letter, a little too long, perhaps, but inspired, as you know, by sentiments which fill my heart, and believe me, I pray you, affectionately yours, Loris PHILIPPE D'ORLEANS."
