There is no change to notice in the progress of business in the general discount market. A mode rate demand prevails for accommodation usual at the close of the year, but as the supplies of capital on offer are abundant, the rates current are not onerous, ranging from about 14 to 1/ per cent. for the best descriptions of commercial paper. Advices from most of the principal cities of the continent received this morning, report that great dulness has prevailed on the various Bourses, owing to misgivings entertained with regard to the pro- Posed Conference concerning the Roman question. The traffic receipts of the East Indian Railway, for the week ending 13th October last, amounted to £34,173, against £38,883 in the corresponding period of the previous year. The New Honduras Loan is firm at 11 14 prem. Atlantic and Great Western Railway Deben tares hay ri sen 4 , to 2 1 22 ; and the Consolidated Mortgage Bonds 4, to 19 20. The specie movements during the past week have been on a rather limited scale as regards the im ports, which ha ve on l y amounte d to a b out £ 1 85 , 4 60, includin g £7,600 from New York by the Germania, a nd £220 by th e Ci ty of New York. The Briton, f rom the C ape o f G ood Hope, has brought £5,000 ; the City of Limerick, from the River Plate, £63,000 ; and the Tanjore, from Alexandria, £9,000 ; about £95,240 in gold has been received f rom Portugal, and £5,400 in silver from the Continent. The exports have been £2,680 to the Last Indies and China by the Massalia, and there h ave been remittances to the Continent through Private sources estimated at £417,798. T he report of the di re cto rs o f th e B an k o f B r iti s h North America, to be submitted to the proprietors at a general meeting on Tuesday, December 3d, has just been issued. It states that the directors have examined the accounts of the bank up to the latest dates received, and upon the probable results of the Year's accounts have declared the usual half-yearly dividend at the rate of 6 per cent. per annum. The hopes entertained that the ironworkers at Darlington would accept the terms offered by the Masters, viz., a reduction of 10 per cent., bas not been verified in the case of the men employed by Mr. Barningham, at Darlington, who first had no tice to leave. About 500 more men have this week been paid off at these works. The trade is in a very b ad condition, an d many masters are prepared, if the men are at all obstinate, to lay off their works altogether. Two o'CLocx.

The directors of the Panama, New Zealand, and Australian Royal Mail Company have issued a notice this afternoon to the effect that they do not propose convening another general meeting this year. The accounts, as the shareholders are aware, are made up once during the twelve months, and are presented at the annual general meeting, held in May or June ; therefore, a meeting at at this period of year is only required when the operation of an ad interim dividend is to be sub mitted for consideration. The receipts for freight and passage money on the Panama line, which, for the three months from December to March, averaged £2,900 a month, have since been maintained at the monthly average of £4,300. .

CHAMPIONSHIP OF THE THAMES. Yesterday (Friday) Sadler and his principal backers attended at the office of the stakeholder, and entered a for mal protest against his handing over the stakes to Kelley, but wo have reason to believe that they will be awarded in accordance with the decision of the referee. With refe rence to the latter, Mr. Biffen has sent a letter to the stake holder, of which the followieg is a copy : Dear Sir, —ln reply to your inquiries--firstly, for my written decision ; secondly, for my answer whetter I ordered Kelley to row over—l have to say : —My decision is that Kelley is entitled to the stakes, and that I did order him to row over. By way of explanation, and to give the public my rea sons for coming to the above decision, I beg to add that after the accidental foul on the first day, I ordered the race to bo rowed again at 3 o'clock the next day, and I chose that hour, because there would then be a good tido and plenty of daylight. Accordingly, within a few minutes of the appointed tune, both Kelley and Sadler were at their stations, and their cutters took up their proper posi tions, Kelley als taking his proper position ; not so, how ever, Sadler, for he deliberately left the side of his cutter and drew close on to Kelley, not leaving sufficient room for a free working of the sculls of both boats without their coming into contact ; indeed, so near that had they started so there can be no doubt that a foul would have taken place almost immediately afterwards. Matters remained thus for a long time, and then Sadler partly dressed himself, and thereby showed an unwillingness to start; indeed, convoying to my mind that ho did not intend to start unless allowed to do so from the position just mentioned. Kelley then rowed to the umpires' boat, and appealed to me for instructions, and, as I considered it Sadler's fault that the time had been so long wasted and the start delayed, that the tido was fast reaching its highest point, and that dusk would shortly - perhaps suddenly —set in, when if a foul took place I might not be able to distinguish who was in the wrong, I told him, if Sadler still refused to start, to row over without him, and this he did. I have only to add that I have porformed my unpleasant office to the best of my ability and judgment, and in strict conformity with the dictates of my conscience.—l am, dear Sir, your obedient servant, WILLIAM BIFFEN. Hammersmith, November 29. The following is from Sadler, and will speak for itself : TO THE EDITOR OF TILE SPORTING LIFE. Sir,—As erroneous reports of the attempted race be tween Kelley and myself have been published, I hope you will allow me to say a few words on the matter. I beg to deny That I was in any way unwilling to start. Twice at least I started, the course being quite clear, and Kelley and I both well placed for a fair start. Kelley, however, would not go. I was always ready and willing to get away on anything like fair terms. When Kelley started to row over it was entirely with out my knowledge, and I had received no caution what ever from the referee. My backers, I am authorised to say, areperfectly satisfied wi: hmy conduct, and have to-day lodged protests with the stakeholder, and intend to carry the matter to a conclu sion.—l remain, yours, &e., J. 11. SADLER. Putney, S.W., Nor. 29. REMARKABLE FRRuCITY OF A RAT.—A little child two years of ago now lies at the Middlesex Hospital in mortal danger, by reason of having been bitten in all parts of its body by a rat. A day or two since the mother of the infant left her baby alone for two hours in a room of the house in Windmill-street, where she resides. On her return she found the child marked with blood from head to foot ; its flesh 1 ad been everywhere gnawed, but the deepest wounds were on the little boy's arms and hands. Suspecting tha cause, the mother remained quiet, watching in the room for some timo after, and saw a very large rat appJar from a hole in the wall. There seems to be no doubt that this creature, incited to ferocity by hunger probably, had attacked the helpless baby and inflicted all the injuries from which he is now suffering. MORNING PERFORMANCE AT. DRURY LANE.—A grand morning performance is to be given on Wednesday next for the benefit of Mr. Fitzjames, who is totally inca pacitated from following his profession by a severe attack of paralysis in May last. An unusual number of the leading actors and actresses will take part in the performance, which will consist of selections from " Caste," " The Wreck Ashore," " The First Night," " David Garrick,' Virginhts," " The Hunchback," " Kind to a Fault," "Black 'Eyed Susan," " Tho Long Strike," and "Diary Turner." LADY HERBERT AND LORD PE3IBROKE.—ShICC the receipt of the first intelligence respecting the hurricane in the West Indies considerable anxiety has been felt as to the safety of Lady Herbert and the Earl of Pembroke, who wont out in the Douro, which was known to be due at St. 'Thomas about the time the storm occurred. We are happy to be able to announce that both arrived safely at St. Thomas, where, it is understood, they will remain for a short time. Lady Herbert will then return home, but the Earl will go to Australia.—Devizes Gazette. ----- REPRESENTATION OF SOUTH LEICESTERSHIRE. — Yesterday the election for the south division of the county of Leicester took place.

Sin,—l have the honour to inform you that the half•yearly meeting of shareholders of the above company was held here to-thy at two o'clock, when the accompanying report of the directora was unani mously adopted.----I have the honour to be, Sir, your obedient servant, H. W. Hum', Secretary. 76, Jermyn-street, S.W., London, Nov. 29. (REPORT.) The directors have the satisfaction of reporting the increased prosperity of the Company. The balance at credit of profit and loss account is the largest as yet in any half-year, and amounts to £1,937 2s. 4d. There has been a falling off in the receipts for bath tickets, amounting to £4B, as com pared with the corresponding period last year. Th is has arisen from the decrease in May and June last —at the time when, owing to the opening of the Paris Exhibition, many of the habitual frequenters of the Hamniam, were absent from London. During July, August, and September, 1867, the nuinbers have increased as compared with the same mouths in 1866. There has been a slight decrease in the cafe account, while in the hotel account there has been an increase of £4B. The balance of increased expenditure arises from two half-years' rent be coming due in the one half-year that has expired, in consequence of the first lease of the premises falling in, and the last rent under it being payable in advance. The working expenses hare been diminished by £4l lls. 7d., the advertising account by £29 2s. 6d., and the amount of salaries by £25 19s. On the occasion of the Sultan's visit to England the bath was placed at the disposal of his suite. There has recently been received the following acknowledgment. Fuad Pacha, in a letter, dated 30th October, to the managing director, writes : " In thus expressing to you the acknowledgments of the Sublime Porte, I wish also to say how much we have been gratified by the amiability with which you placed, during our visit to London in July last, the Turkish bath which you have constructed in that capital, at the disposal of the suite of his Imperial Majesty the Sultan. Several persons attached to the suite of his Imperial Majesty did take advantage of this gracious offer, and we were charmed to dis cover so far from our own dear country one of our national institutions, so generally in use amongst us. It is therefore for me a real pleasure to con vey to you these acknowledgments." The direc tors beg to propose a dividend, at the rate of 8 per cent. per annum, amounting to £l7B. This will leave a reserve of £642 13s. to meet possible contingencies after all outstanding claims are settled. It being the turn of H. Wrenfordsley, Esq., and Dr. Bryce, to retire from the direction, it is proposed that H. Wrenfordsley, Esq., be re-elected, and that Francis Francis, Esq., of the Firs, Twickenham, be elected director in the place of Dr. Bryce. It is proposed that Mr. Glover be re-elected as auditor. Sudden Death of the Mayor of Bath. A very tragical event took place at Bath last night. For some years past it has been usual to have weekly " penny readings," which were introduced into the city by the originator of them, the Rev. James Fleming, formerly incumbent of All Saint's, Bath, but now of Camden Chapel, Cam berwell. These readings have been most suc cessful, and have always been crowded. The local authorities have sanctioned them by their pre sence, and either the mayor or some leading citizen has usually presided. Last Friday evening the newly elected Mayor, Mr. Francis Slack, took the chair in the presence of a very large number of people assembled in the beautiful room of the Guilihall, a building erected from the designs of the well-known Inigo Jones. His worship was observed to grow suddenly faint. Three medical gentlemen—Messrs. Spender, Barter, and Gore—who happened to be present. immediately ran forward, but their assist ance was unavailing. The mayor was dead. Death, in fact, had been instantaneous. He was laid out in the Council Chamber, and the sight of one so well known, who but a few minutes before had addressed " his fellow-citizens," thus lying life less with his robes of office still about him, caused the most profound and painful im pression. Mr. Slack was a solicitor in very large practice, and in that capacity he took a very prominent part in the proceedings connected with the Road murder, being, we believe, convinced— though, as it now turns out, incorrectly—that the father of the murdered child was the eriminid. As a politician, he had taken an active part as a moderate Liberal. He was elected mayor for the first time on November 9of the present year. He bad entered upon the duties of his office with eitreme assiduity, and had on Thursday presided at the distribution of prizes in connection with the Oxford local examin ations. It was then noticed how fagged Mr. Slack looked, but no one apprehended that he was seriously ill, or that so sad a tragedy was close at hand. The death of a mayor while in office has not occurred at Bath for very many years. JiARKETs—(This Day.) COVENT GARDEN.

The two prisoners giving th names G gorge I ferry and Joseph Theobald Casey, but the form( r of whom is allegNl to be Richard Bui:ke, a colon' 1 in the so-called Fenian army, were bron l : ht up on re mand, the former charged with treason ..fe?ony, and both with assaulting the police in the execution of their duty. On the prisoners being placed in the dock it -ap peared that, from some misunderstanding, t` v 0 learned counsel appeared for the defence—gr. Kenealey, instructed by Mr. Norton, fur both pri soners, and Mr. Grialths, instructed by Mr. R for Burke. Sir 'Plomas Henry suggested that the prisor .cr Burke should be allowed to elt•ct which gentlein tu should represent him as his solicitor. Mr. Norton sail he was instructed last night by a brother of the prisoner Casey, and was requt sted to defend both prisoners. He should have seen Col. Burke last night if there had been time. Mr. Griffiths said Mr. Ring was not in court at the present moment, having:gone to his office for some papers, but had left in his hands a MS. in the handwriting of the colonel containing the notes from which the brief was drawn. Burke made no comment on the fact that both learned gentlemen spoke of him as "Colonel Burke" and the " Colonel." He observed that he could not at once see how to meet the difficulty. He could find work for both gentlemen. Sir Thomas Henry—Which is your solicitor ? Mr. Ring or Mr. Norton ? Burke—Well, certainly I have seen Mr. Ring, but I could not say that I have positively intrusted my defence to that gentleman. I would be glad if the case could be remanded for an hour that I might consider the matter. After some further conversation the case was ad journed for a short time, permission being given f9r the Colonel to confer with Mr. Norton. At 12 o'clock all parties returned into court, but it was then found that no definite arrangement had been come to, and another long discussion ensued; eventually Dr. ,Kenealey was selected to defend, Col. Burke demanding the papers which had been produced in court by Mr. Griffiths. Sir Thomas Henry informed the prisoner those papers could not be removed from the care of the learned gentleman who had received them from Mr. Ring, and until that gentleman was present in the court - , which he believed would be by one o'clock, he could not have them. Col. Burke said he was satisfied with that ar rangement. At the request of Dr. Kenealey, the evidence given ou the last occasion was read, and then Mr. Poland, who appeared for the prosecution, call; l Godfrey Massey, who maid—l ant a native of Ireland. I went to America in 1856. I afterwards joined the Confederate service in the t ime of the civil war. I held the rank of lieutenant-colonel when that war ceased. In August, 1865, I joined the Fenian Brotherhood at Houston, in Texas. I took neither oath nor pledge. I arrived in New York in October, 1865. Between the time I was engaged by a commercial house in New Orleans, but I gave the Fenian cause my support, and did all in my power to extend it. I know a person named James Stephens well. I first saw him in New York. The object of the Fenian Brotherhood was the establishment of a Republic iu Ireland. I first saw Stephens early in October, last year. He had an office in New York, at 19, Chatham-street. Stephens was the chief organiser of the Fenian Brotherhood. I heard from Stephens an account of his escape from Dublin. He (Stephens) said he escaped from prison by the agency of friends, both within and without the prison. I knew Col. Kelley. He was the deputy of Stephens. I knew the prisoner Burke. first met him in New York, at 19, Chatham street. He did not know that he held any distinct ro3ition in the Brotherhood. I knew him as "Captain" Burke. I was on intimate terms with Stephens, Kelly, and the prisoner. I knew Stephens's private residences in New York—one was " East Thirteenth," and one "West Eleventh.' Besides these persons I knew a person in New York who was called by courtesy " Colonel Burke." I gave evidence on his trial at Dublin. I knew M‘Haferty, General Halpin, and General Cluseraty, all of whom were connected with the Fenian Brotherhood. I gave evidence on the trial of General Halpin a few days ago. I have met all of them in the prisoner's company in New York. I have seen the prisoner in company with Stephens and the others. I think the prisoner was acquainted with the Colonel Burke of whom I have spoken. I remember a meeting of Fenians at New York with respect to the number of arms that had been obtained. I was present at it. It was com posed of military and non-military men. The pri soner Burke was there. Stephens at that meeting said he had not nearly the number of arms he ex pected to have. The minimum he expected was 30,000, and that only between 4,000 and 5,000 had actually been obtained. A discussion took place at that meeting with Stephens as to the rising that was to take place in the new year that has gone by. Nothing of any other importance took place at the meeting, which was held at the private rooms of Stephens in East Thirteenth -street. An arrange ment was afterwards made to have a purely mili tary meeting, and a day or two afterwards such a meeting was held. Those who attended the pre vious meeting, with the exception of the non-military men, were present. At that meeting the dis cussion turned on the rising. Several of the officers present volunteered their services. I cannot say whether the time of rising was discussed at that meeting, which was held about the 20th of Decem ber. The rising was determined on, and the officers volunteered their services, and went to different parts of England. The voluntary offer was to take part in the rising. The names so offering were taken down by Kelly. I volunteered as one of the persons, and my name was taken down. The pri soner Burke did the same. Colonel Burke I have before spoken of also volunteered. After that meeting Stephens was repudiated, and Kelly acted in his place. Stephens was repudiated because he was insincere, and deceived both officers and others ; he was also grossly incompetent in a military point of view. I left New York for England on the 11th of January last. I came to England alone. I believe the prisoner Burke sailed before I did from New York. I went to Liverpool, and the next day after I came to London, and the day after that I saw the prisoner in London. I met him near a public-house, but I don't know the name of the locality. I had some conversation with him, but I cannot now recollect what the subject of the con versation was. I afterwards lived wth Burke in London, at No. 7, Tavistock-street. Captain Burke engaged the lodgings. I don't know that he had been living there before my arrival in London. I remained with him until about the 10th or 11th of February last, but Burke left some days before that. We hal one room on the top loft. Burke went as " Air. Wallace," and and I as " Cleburn." It was the end of January last that I went to live in Tavistock-E-quare. I have met all the Fenian officers iu England whom I had seen in America, and some whom I had not seen there. At the time I saw Colonel Kelly in Lon don he was lodging at 5, North-crescent, Totten ham-court-road. I have been to the place. Kelly went by the name of " Mr. Coleman," and I believe General Halpin lodged with him for some time ; he went by the name of "Mr. Fletcher." Kelly was the chief of the Fenians in London. The organisation of the forces in Ireland was entrusted to my direction. Amongst others I gave some instructions to the prisoner Burke. I ap pointed him to the Macroom district, in the County Cork. The last directions he got from me were given in London. I told hint when he arrived at Macroom to make himself acquainted with the re sources of the place, and that when the rising took place he was to destroy the railroads and things of that sort, to reduce the means of communi cation, Tho telegraphs were cut and the railroads tapped—that was not to entirely destroy, but to causegreat delay by the taps being made in the metals. There were other officers at Macroom, but Captain Burke was a senior officer. He would have to communicate with the Centre's in making himself acquainted with the resources of his district. Sir F. Henry—What's a Centre ? Witness—As applied in Ireland, the chief officer as applied to a comp an y. _ _ Exainination continued—l brought some money with me from America to the amount of £550 in golf. I received it for ColonA Kelly. Before Burke left London I gave him between £l5 or £2O, I also gtre money to all the officers in London, in sums varying between £l2 and £3O. Before the prisoner Burke left London, I did not tell him the night that had been appointed fur the rising, as I did not know it myself at the im?. When he left a rising had been deter ! mired upon b n t th e d a t e had not been fixed. Before I left London, and after Burke had a meeting vas hell at Col. Kelly's lodgings. I think it was the lJ[h of February, and a Sunday night. Three delegates from Ireland were present at the meeting. The delegates were Mahony, of Cork, Byrn of Dublin, and Arbiuson of Belfast. It was arranged that the three persons constitute themselves into a directory for the management of civil affairs in Ireland. In London before prisoner Burke left I had a conversation with him. Mr. Poland—What was it? Witness—Am I bound to tell the purport of a private conversation ? Sir T. Henry—Yes. You must tell all. are sworn to tell the whole truth. You Witnef,s—l think if I do not possess that as a pri vilege, I ought to have it given me as a right. Sir T. Henry--No, you must tell all. Wituess---Then you will have to question it all out of me. Dr. Kennedy—l hope all that will be taken down, as it is important. Sir T. Henry—Oh, yes; that will be done. (To witness)—You have no privilege. Wituess—Only the privilege of swearing. lam aware of that now. Sir T. Henry—You had better tell the whole truth at once. Examin contd.—l saw Burke in London. He said he had been to Birmingham on Fenian busi ness, the purchase of arms consisting of rifles and revolvers. I know of no others. He said he had had them •hipped to Ireland. I don't remember anything about whether he bad also sent caps and ammunition. He said some of them had been seized at Queenstown. I think that was the place, but I may be mistaken now on that point. Burke told me that he went in the name of E. C. Win slow. Mr. Poland—Did he say anything about money ? Dr. Knealoy objected to such leading questions. Sir T. Henry said the witness bad assumed a very hostile position, and such questions as were put to him he was bound to answer. Addressing the wit ness, Sir Thomas said—You had better tell the whole truth without further difficulty. Witness—lf I must tell it I will begin it. Burke said he had been to Birmingham to purchase arms for the Fenians. On one occasion, if I remember right, he said he bad got credit for £9OO. That was the pith of it. I cannot tell for how long the credit was obtained. I left London in February of the present year. I saw Feriola at tho lodgings of Cluseret, a French officer, in Bedford-square, and 127 or 137, Great Portland•street. Feriola was chief of the staff to Cluseret, and, in his absence, to me. Feriola was addressed as " General." The last time I saw him was in the Court-house, Green street, Dublin, during the trial of General Halpin. When I left Loudon in February I went to Dublin. I was appointed commander-in chief in Dublin. The appointment was made at the residence of Gen. Chiseret. I don't know all who were there. I was not. Two delegates from Kelly's quarters were present. I was told of the appointment by Kelly. There had been a meeting of the Directory. When I went to Ireland I went through the different sec tions, except in the north. The sth of Mareh was appointed the night for the rising. It was to take place at midnight. I was at Cork on the 4th of March. I proceeded to the Limerick Junction to make preparations for the rising, which was to take place the following night. At that place I was arrested at ;we've o'ulock at tuidoight on the arrival of the up-train from Cork. I never saw the prisoner Burke in Ireland. After he left for Macroom he wrote to me. I received the letter in London ; it must have been in the prisoner's handwriting. I don't know what has become of that letter, as it is not customary with me to keep documents of that sort. I have it not, neither do I know where it is. I think it was dated from Water ford. I cannot even recollect the purport of the letter. It was signed either in the name of " Wal lace" or " Winslow," but I cannot say which. It was addressed " Mr. Cleburn, 7, Tavistock-street," the one near Tottenham-court-road. This concluded this witnesses examination, and it was then read over to him. Dr. Kenealey said he would reserve his cross examination until another opportunity. He thought, however, something ought to be done with Casey ; his was a very insignificant charge compared with the other prisoner. Mr. Poland said he intended to ask for another remand for both prisoners, as inquiries were going on with respect to Casey. Gecrge Kylock said—l live at 45, Little Halkett street, Birmingham. I am a percussion cap and ammunition maker. lam also a general dealer in small arms. I carried on the business in 1865. I knew the prisoner Burke ; not as " Burke" though. I first Eaw him I believe on the 23d of December, 1865, in my office. He had been there before, and made some arrangement with my servant about some percussion caps. He said he had agreed with the young person with respect to the articles he wanted, and he had then come to settle the bargain. Prisoner gave the name of " Edward C. Winslow," and said he was then stopping at the King's Head; but he after wards had a place in G-.:orge-street, to whom the things were sent. Prisoner did not say who he was further than that ho represented a commercial firm ; composed of three individuals. Did not inquire into the nature of it, as it was no precise business. The first order was two million of military percus sion caps, 250,000 small caps and 40 revolvers— Lemat and Gerard's 10-shot revolvers. The caps were in cases. The cost of the goods was £385 7s. 6d. The military caps were in 20 cases in my warehouse in Curzon-street. On the prisoner pay ing me the money I gave him the order to receive the goods. I also sent an order to Crowther and Co., the agents for the North Western Railway to deliver the goods to prisoner. The 40 revolvers were given to his man at the same time that the swal caps were delivered. That person signed his name Maledy. Afterward; saw the prisoner ; he said he liked the goods very well. He said he should re quire a lot of similar goods. I said I could get them for him. I did do so, and having collected them from different makers, I told the prisoner. I know Mr. W. F. Hill, gun and pistol maker, No. 9, St Mary's-road, Birmingham. I went with the prisoner to that person's place of business very soon after I first saw him. It might have buce saual day but I cannot say positively. We went to Hill's to see what pistols he had in stock, as he was a maker of that article. Prisoner examined a great many of he ar lea, which he pointed out as suitable for his trade, as he called it. An arrangement was then made about the goods. I was to make the purchase of Mr. Hill. I did do so, and afterwards I received a great number of pistols from that gentleman,tnost of Which 1 sold to the prisorier. I sold him altogether 627 revolvers from first to last during my transac tions with him, which extended from December '65, to January, '66. The total amount of the bill was £1,972, all of which had been paid except a small balance which related to return of some cases. I received an order for rifles from the prisoner as well as pistols. Bullet-moulds were sent with each of the pistols.• I also sent the usual accompaniment of a rifle. Prisoner invariably paid cash except on one occasion, when I made out the invoice. _ I had asked him to purchase a lot of rifles, as I always have a lot on hand. Soon after that he came very hurriedly ono day and said he would take the lot Of ..- „~. goods, but I must give him credit until the Saturday night. This was on a Thursday. I demurred slightly, but since my transactions com menced with him we have become intimate, owing to his agreeable manners. I said "I will run the risk, and you shall have them." The gross amount to be paid on the Saturday for them was £698 is. 6d. This transaction took place on the 28th December, but there were other transactions, making the credit I was to give amount to £7OO. He arranged to come to my place and pay on the Saturday. Ile did not do so, and I saw him the following day at the King's Head Hotel. I was rather uneasy about the £7OO floating about, and on seeing the prisoner he said he was very Oa i to see :He, as he would pay me the monz.y. I toll him I was particularly glad to see him. He then paid, me the money. The revolvers were delivered loe,se, the rifles in cases of 20 each. Sir T. ileory—Who took them away'? Witness—They were delivercl to variona persons. Maledy came for some as well as ethers. Examination onitinued—l knew Maledy as Winslow's servant. There is a signature I did not recognise until last night, William John Menay. I have been to 64, George-street, and have also been in the packing-room there ; but I don't think I ever saw the prisoner there. Now I look again I think the man Casey is the man Maledy. Dr. Kenealey—Do be careful now about such a thing as that. Witness (looking at Casey)—Well, yes, he's Arczy like ; however, I will not say positively he's the man. Sir Thomas Henry—You must have a belief about the matter. Witness—Well, I'm sure he's one of those whom I have seen at Gaorge-street, if he is not Maledy, but I believe him to be that person. Examination continued—There was a plate on the door of 61, George-street, " E. 0. Winslow, Commission-agent." I believe it to bo there at the present moment. I never went into the room at the back on the ground floor of the house in George.. street. I knew the prisoner altogether in Birming ham about tw3 months. During our acquaintance the prisoner told me ho was in communication with Harper's establishment in New York. Mr. Poland—Did he ever tell you what comp'osi tion he could make? I don't mean a literary cam position. Witness—No. Mr. Poland—Did he ever say anything about some sort of fire? Witness—Well, we have had a conversation about something that would set fire to everything; and when the discovery was made in Liverpool of the Greek fire I remarked that that was the stuff Wins ow used to talk about, and Winslow said that be knew how it was done. He called it Greek fire. A number of letters respecting orders from the prisoner Burke to witness Kylock were then put and read to prove the handwriting of the prisoner. Mr. W. J. Hill said—l carry on business at No. 9, St. Mary's-row, Birmingham, and am a gun and pistol maker. At the cud of 1865 Mr. Kylock cams with a gentleman to my warehouse. The taller prisoner (Burke) was that person. He then said his name was Winslow, and asked what quantity of revolvers I had in stock, and the lowest price re quired. I stated some prices, but he asked whether any abatement would be made if he gave a large order, and asked what I considered a large order. I said 100 or 200 ; when he replied, "If I con sidered that a large order, he could give a larger one than that." He then asked me what quantity I could deliver by the following Wednesday. I told him the quantity, but I could not recollect now the exact amount. He said most likely he could employ me in the execution of orders for at least six or nine monts, taking what I could produce within that time. I told him I could produce 100 per week, and he said he thought that a smaller quantity than he should have imagined in such a town as Bir- minghatn. 1 agreed to supply the quantity he then ordered to Mr. Kylock on the following IVelnes day. This was the Saturday evening previous to Christmas-day, 1865. Mr. Kylock was to pay for the goods. 1 saw him after that a great many times at my pla , e of b;ibinci,s. By r,fercnce to my Looks I hind the 27th of Dec. was the first transaction ; on that occasion 135 re volvers were supi.li?d, on the 30th, 45 ; on Jan. 4, 1856, 40 ; on the 7th of that month, 28. After that I saw the prisoner at Mr. Kylock - ,s, fre quently examining the goods I had sup plied. On the 26th of January, 1866, I sold a pistol to Mr. Kylock, it was a highly fur nished one, its cost price being about £5 10s. (a presentation pistol from the prisoner.) After that 1 went on making a large quantity of revolvers, but I did not deliver them. I had got forward about 300 in consequence of a difference arising be tween myself and Mr. Kylock. I recollect hearing the prisoner mention South America, and I imagined the pistols were going there. I have not seen the prisoner since the last delivery of goods. Eliza Lambert said—l live at 7, Tavistock-street, Bedford-square. Some time call) , in the year two gentlemen came to live there. The names of these persons were Mr. Wallace and Mr. -Ole burn. The tall gentleman in the dock is Mr. Wallace. The witness Massey was then sent for, and on his appearing in court she identified him as " Mr. Cleburn." Examination continued—l cannot recollect the gentleman leaving. I knew a detective officer named Clarke came to the house after they had both left. It was about a week after Cleburn went away. They both occupied the front room on the third floor, and paid 103. a week. Sometimes I saw them more frequently than others. Mr. Poland said that was as far as he intended to proceed to-day, and he had now to ask for another remand. Mr. Kenealey hoped that some arrangement would be made that the case against the prisoners would be completed on that day. It was a great hardship and expensive to the prisoner to be kept continually under remand. Sir T. Henry said he did not think that any un nec.3ssary delay wo.ild be made by the prosecution. It was a very important investigation. Doubtless the obtaining the necessary witnesses was attended with great difficulty. Mr. Poland—l cannot undertake to say I will complete the case next week. Sir T. Henry—We will remand the case for a week, and at the end of that say what is to be done. FRACAS ATIVARIVICK RACES.—On Monday last, at the Warwick pclico court, More the Lord Mayer and a full bench, James Grimshaw, the well-known jockey, George Milne, trainer to the Marquis of Queensberry, and George Barry, were severally summoned to answer a charge of having absaulted another trainer, named Chas. Rolph, of Little Hinton, Wilts, on Wednesday week, the second day of the Warwick meeting. Mr. Snaps was for the cotnplaiaant, and Mr. Passman for the defendant. The charge against Barry was first proceeded with. The com plainant stated that on Wednesday night the 20th inst. ho went to the Bowling Green Inn, Warwick, where Grimshaw commence I chaffing him, told him he had better go home, as he had no money, and after some words Barry jumped up and said, " Into him." Millie then threw a great coat over his head, and Barry struck him two or three blows. They then dragged him into the passage where Grimshaw kicked him several Ones, and on the door-step Barry struck him again, and ono of the blows knocked him down. In creme-examination he denied having first threatened to put Grimshaw on the fire, or that lie had ever been fined for poaching or trespas sing hi search of game. 3lr. Bullock, a surgeon, depoied that the complainant came to him with a wound or bruise on his face which had probably been caused by blow.). Mr Passman having addressed the bench for the defence called Mrs. Butler, the sister-in law of the landlord of the Bowling Green, and Miss Page, the barmaid, b Ala of whom deposed that the complainant swore so violently, end made use of such filthy language, that the landlord came and turned him out of the house, and they both posi tively denied that any coat• was thrown over the com plainant's head, or that any one struck him in the bar. Mr. Passmaa intimated that h.) had several other wit nesses, but the bench said they had resolved to dismiss the case, without expressing any opinion as to the con duct of the parties. The summonses against Grimshaw and Marie were then withdrawn. Mr. Passman applied that Rolph might be taken into custody for having com mitted wilful and corrupt perjury, and said Barry was ready to make the necessary affirmation, but tie bench declined to accede to the application, and Mr. Passman was understood a te say that the case went(' be taken 04 higher court. ruts Eltklivilti; b ktAtticb.
