Comparatively little change has taken place in the general state of business in the Discount ➢lar ket, the demand for accommodation is limited, and the rates current for the negociation of first-class short-dated paper remain unaltered, being 11 1 per cent. Atlantic and Great Western Railway Debentures remain steady, at 25 26i, and the Consolidated Mortgage Bonds at 20 21. The annexed notice has been issued to the share holders of tho English and Swedish BAnk (Limited) iu lividation " 13, St. Helen's-plac.., Bishops;:,rate-street, London, E.C., Nov. 3, 1667. " Sir,—l am instructed by the liquidators under the voluntary winding-up of the company to inform You, as the registered proprietor of shares therein, that on and after the 2d of December, 18137, between the hours of eleven o'clock in the forenoon and two o'clock in the afternoon, a warrant payable to your order for the third instalment of £3 per share of the net assets of the company (making £l7 Per share returned) will be deliverable on production of the share certificate held by you in respect of such share.—l am, Sir, your obedient servant, " JOHN J. DORMAN." Bar gold, amounting to £59,000, was withdrawn from the Bank yesterday. The New York, from New York, has brought £20,400 in specie.. A circular has been issued by the various docks of London announcing a reduction in the charges for warehousing tea equal to about 15 per cent. The reduction is to be applied to all tea warehoused since the Ist September. At the meeting held to-day of the proprietors of the Upper Assam. Tea Company the accounts pleb- Initted show a loss of 120,022 on the operations of 1 865-66, and to this amount there will have to be added a further deficiency estimated at £6,000 or £7,000. The causes of this result are chiefly found in the wasteful expenditure which prevailed is every department of the management of the company, and partly to the consequences of the final act of the late board in Placing the affairs under the control of the Court of Chancery. When the present directors took charge the liabilities in London were £31,395, which to date, Oct. 1, are reduced to £7,547, and now stand at £6,206. The directors state, in their endeavours to re-establish the company, they have had to contend with many difficulties and unforeseen disappointments. These have been so far successfully met, and nothing in regard to the financial position of the company has been kept back. The home ex penditure has been reduced from £2,000 to £4OO per annum, including directors' fees. The report of the directors of the United Mexican Mining Company was submitted at the meeting held to-day. It stated that the expenditure in the six months ending 30th June last exceeded the returns by the sum of $12,613, besides $1,900, the balance of loans to the Government. The general expenditure has amounted to $28,589, and the re turns have been $15,976, leaving a loss of $12,613. Mr. Furber has not had occasion to draw more than the £1,200 against the credit of £3,000 given him, as stated in the Directors' Report of May last. On the other hand, his financial posi tion has since enabled him to send home nearly £l,OOO, a portion of which was remitted to pay for goods ordered from this country, to the value of about £350. During the half-year forced loans to the extent of 3,200 dollars have been levied on the company in Mexico, but 1,300 dollars of that amount have been repaid, and since June the fur ther sum of 500 dollars has been received. The amount of available cash assets on 16th September, 1 867, the latest date received, was 22,667 dollars, and the approximate value of ores on hand and under reduction -13,600 dollars. The Manchester markets are thus commented on by Messrs. A. Collie and Co.:—Since last Tuesday the demand for goods and "yarns has decidedly diminished, and to-day we have to report a still Weaker tone and rather lower quotations for al kinds. The dullness has no doubt been intensified by the still unceriain condition of Italian affairs, but, apart from these, not much animation could have been expected, as there aro already fair sup plies of goods in process for the larger markets.

To-day, the prisoner John Scates, who is in cus tody on a charge of having attempted to kill a police-constable of the E division in North-crescent mews, was again placed at the bar of Bow-street Police-court. Mr. Vaughan, the magistrate, presided, and called upon Mr. Superintendent Searle to state what addi tional evidence he had obtained since the prisoner was last before him. Superintendent Searle said they had apprehended a man this morning, but Saunders had seen him, and declared he was not the person who shot him, so he was set at liberty. The only other evidence he had on the present occasion was George Saunders, 153 E, the injured man, who was so far recovered as to give evidence, said ho was on duty on the 20th of October, and North Cres cent-mews was opposite his beat. He renaembersd on that night seeing the prisoner at the bar, and spoke to him in Mabledon-place. He asked him what he wanted there, and he replied he was wait ing to see a man. He had been waiting about for 10 minutes before he (witness) spoke to him, but about that time the man the prisoner said he was waiting for came up, and both went away. When he (witness) was shot he was at the far end of the mews searching the cabs. He was certain at that time no person was in either of them. As ho was returning up the mews, and just as he had come to the last on 6, a man rushed out of the cab and struck him a violent blow on the side of the head. He saw the man comp out of the cab, as he was close to the door when it flew open. He was certain the prisoner at the bar was not that man. When he fell to the ground he saw the mau point the pistol at him, and seeing that he rolled on one side, and the ball took effect in his leg. The man who fired the pistol then ran away. He was certain the man whom he saw with the prisoner was not him. Ile did not remember seeing the prisoner when he was recovering. The man who shot him wore a Fenian hat, a long beard, and had a fresh complexion. He was taken to the police station, and, after having had his wounds dressed, he returned to the mews with the sergeant, and he then found the pistol (produced). It had an exploded cap on the nipple. He did not recollect the prisoner asking him to allow him to spring his (witness's) rattle. No person asked him such a thing. Mr. Vaughan said there was very great cause to believe, although the prisoner was not the person who fired the shot, yet he knew who did, and he should again remand him, with the option of pro curing bail.

COURT or QUEEN'S BENCH. Sittings in Banco, before the Lord Chief Justice and Air. Justice Lush.) TIIE QUEEN V. WOODREVE. This was an actin tried at the last Western Circuit Assizes relative to the public right of a pretty piece of water near the Dart. The case had been tried before Mr. Justice Willes, and it was intimated that the learned judge entertained doubts as to the choice of the jury, and on this ground Mr. Coleridge, Q.C., moved for a new trial, on the ground of the verdict being against the weight of evidence. The Court ordered the case to stand over, in order to consult Mr. Justice IVilles. COURT OF EXCHEQUER. Before Mr. Baron Martin and a Common Jury.) HOLDEN V. 11'1111'E. In this case, which vas part heard yesterday, the learned counsel summed up on behalf of their re spective clients, acd the learned Baron called attention to two points for their consideration ; one, whether they believed that the defendant had believed that he was making a faithful account of his business ; the other, whether they thought the plaintiff had taken sufficient care or not to ascertain the value of the public-house. Upon these points, assisted by the evidence, they must found their judgment. The case was not concluded when we went to press. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. KEPPEL V. SHIELDS, JUN., AND OTHERS. This was an action to recover compensation on a bond entered into by the defendants for an alleged misappropriation of certain goods, amounting to £l7 175., by the younger defendant, who was in his service as shopman and traveller. The defendants denied the bond, and joined issue. Mr. Warton appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Gough for the defendants. It appears that the plaintiff is a tobacconist, and carries on business a Nos. 3 and 52, City-road, and that the defendants are tobacconists and confec tioners in Rotherhithe-street, Rotherhithe. In the month of Oct., 1865, Geo. Shields, jun., was engaged by plaintiff to take the managemen of one of his shops, and his father and a person named Kilpatrick (who did not appear) entered into a bond for £5O to make good any deficiencies that might occur through the negligence or otherwise of Shields, jun. In May, 1866, made a claim for a deficiency of £l7 175., which the defendants refused to pay. This was after having taken stock on the Ist of that month. The present action was then commenced. For the defence it was urged that there was not the amount of stock stated, and that no allowance had been made by the plaintiff for loss of weight and depreciation of cigars to the stock. The jury found a verdict for £5. (Sittings in Banco, before Mr. Justice Willes, Mr. Justice Keating, and Mr. Justice Byles.) LILLEY V. CARDIGAN. This, it will be recollected, was an action tried last term in the Court of Common Pleas before Mr. Justice Byles and a special jury, to recover compen sation in damages for an alleged false imprisonment of the plaintiffs by his master the Earl of Cardigan. The circumstances were briefly these :—Some notes and letters belonging to the Countess of Cardigan were missed, and suspicion fallen upon the priso ner he was given into custody, but from the facts that came out subsequently he was discharged. He then brought the present action, and the jury con sidering that there was not sufficient justification for his being given into custody, awarded the heavy damages of £4OO. Mr. Coleridge, Q.C. (with him Mr. Buller) now moved to show cause why a rule nisi should not bo granted for a new trial on the ground of misdirec tion, and the verdict being against the weight of evidence as to the question of justification for the plaintiff's incarceration. The learned counsel re viewed at consideraable length the circumstances attending the imprisonment, and the Court deter mined that the matter stand over. POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day. LORD MAYOR'S DAY. The Earl of Derby and the rest of the Cabinet Ministers, with only three exceptions—namely, the Duke of Buckingham, the Duke of Richmond, and the Earl of Mayo—have been pleased to accept the invitations of the Lord Mayor Elect and the Sheriffs to the banquet at Guildhall on Saturday next, Lord Mayor's Day, and the occasion on that account promises to be one of great public interest. A one time there was reason to believe that their Royal Highnesses Prince, and Princess Christian would have honoured the Lord Mayor with their company at the entertainment, but the 9th of November being the anniversary of the b;rth of the Prince of Wales, and it being the intention of his Royal Highness and the Princess of Wales to spend the day at Windsor, Prince and Princess Christian, who, by desire of her Majesty, are to dine at the Castle that evening in honour of the occasion, have been obliged to forego the invitation of the civic authorities. On the recommendation of a committee of the Corporation, to whom the subject had been referred for consideration, some changes are about to be mad 3 in the mode of conducting the great civic festival on this occasion. At most the Guildhall can only accommodate 812 guests at such an enter tainment, and exactly half the space is invariably occupied by the Common Councilmen, 206 in num ber, and each of whom has the privilege of intro ducing a lady. In addition, each of the 25 Alder men has a right to be present with a lady, and has had besides, until now, the power of inviting four other persons, though only one of the four, and that a lady, was entitled to dine in the great hall, a dinner being provided for the remaining three in each case, making 75 in all, in the Court of Exchequer, hard by, with the privilege of going into the hall after to hear the speeches. The suites of the Judges made up the company shunted, so to speak, from the hall under that invidious arrangement to about 100, and they were always more or less incensed by the exclusion. Rumour has it also that the society so regulated to that limbo was never very select, and that after dinner they occasionally transgressed the rules of strict decorum. Apropos of that a charac teristic story is told. An Alderman, still living, who filled the office of Lord Mayor about 30 years ago, desiring on the occasion of his Mayoralty to be civil to a friend, who was then, as now, an eminent banker, sent him what is called in civic jargon. a " coach order," which entitled him to dine, not in the great hall, as he had expected, but in one of its purlieus— ' the Court of Exchequer. how he fared in that quar ter no one ever knew possibly but himself; but it may be inferred from the circumstance that from that day he never spoke to the then Lord Mayor, whose guest he was. The particular Alderman in telling the story is said usually to excuse himself by stating that in his then novitiate he did not exactly know what a " coach order" meant. Be that as it may, the privilege of the Aldermen in that respect has been this year limited in one sense, and at the same time improved, inasmuch as every one invited to the banquet will now be accommodated with a seat in the hall, and the subsidiary feast in the Ex chequer will be abolished. The immediate effect has been to stimulate the demand for tickets to an inordinate degree, seeing that the company has necessarily to be diminished by at least 100. Some of the Aldermen aro understood to be dissatis fied with the change, and to stand on their accus tomed privileges in that respect. On the other hand, the members of theCommonCouncil have a grievance of their own in connection with the entertainment apparently far more galling, and against which dome of the more prominent of them have of late vainly protested. Though accustomed as a body, or as some say, entitled to dine in the hall on those occasions, and to bring each a lady, an impassable iron barrier has for some years past completely divided them from the rest of the company, and caused them great, and it would seem just, umbrage. This broad line of demarcation extends right across the hall, midway between the top and bottom, and confines them completely to their own company, as if they were a privileged, or rather a proscribed, class. Reasons founded on the score of convenience are said to have justified the separation at one time, but are hardly intelligible now, and are certainly nothing in comparison with the pain inflicted ou a class of men who, with the rest of the company, are guests under one common roof, and on a great festive occa sion. This year the entertainment committee had resolved to substitute a silken cord for the iron bar rier, which cord was to be lowered out of sight when the company had taken their seats, but they have been overruled in the matter by the privileges com mittee of the Court of Aldermen, and the obnoxious and odious barrier has been put up as usual again. The determination of the Lord Mayor Elect to abstain from using the State coach appears to excite mixed sentiments in the neighbourhood of Guildhall ; but only, or chiefly, ameng the Aldermen and Common Councilmen, many of whom have a decided leaning in favour of the ancient customs connected with the corporation, and are prone to regard as ominous any d e p ar t ure from them. There are even some who believe in the mozal effect upon the minds of the young of the sight of the accustomed pageant in fostering emula tion and the desire to rise to honour. Nevertheless, the Lord Mayor Elect has resolved, from a regard to the public convenience and to the change of times and circumstances, to abandon the use of the an tiquated coach as an incongruous thing, and to go from Guildhall to Westminster in his private State carriage, drawn by four ,horses, accompanied, as usual, by the Sheriffs in their splendid equipages, and such of the Aldermen as may honour him with their company, with the high officars of the corpora tion. The men in armour will disappear from the procession, as well also the motley throng of water men bearing banners ; but in other respects it will be made up much the same as before. There will be a dashing cavalry escort, with a fine military band, and the pageant is expected to proceed at a brisk pace, and to interrupt the ordinary street traffic as little as possible. The destination of the old State Coach is said to be the South Kensington Museum. MARKETS—(This Day.) MARK LANE. Tho arrivals of wheat from ESSOY and Kent have only been moderate, but in fair average condition. The attend ance of millers was limited, and the demand for both red and white qualities was inactive at barely Monday's cur. rency. There was a good show of foreign samples on the stands but the trade ruled heavy at Monday's decline in the quo• tations. Barley was dull of sale at the prices current on last mar kot day. Floating cargoos of grain have ruled inactive, and values tend downwards. The malt trade was steady on previous terms. Oats wore in little inquiry, but no further reduction took place in the quotations. Beans and l teas commanded little attention, but Monday's prices are unchanged. The flour trade was heavy, and country qualities had a do 'inward tendency. Town households unaltered. Linseed and rapeseed less firm, and in agricultural seeds there was little passing. Cakes sold slowly. ARRIYALS THIS WEB IC. Wheat. Barley. Malt. Oats. Flour.

On tho Surrey side a monster effigy, illustrative of certain ritualistic practices, mounted on a platform drawn by one horse, and attended by several men, was paraded, but the police, exercising their powors under the now street regulation act, cut shoat the career of this party, and compelled them to withdraw th#ir oxhibition. BOW-STREET. MISTAKEN IDENTITY.—This morning Mr. Walker, jeweller, carrying onbusiness in Holborn, attended before Mr. Vaughan, relative to the retention of some jewellery which he alleged was his property, and of which he had been robbed two years ago. It appears that two years ago, in April, 1865, a burglary was committed on the premises of Mr. Walker, and jewellery to the extent of 12,000 was stolen, the thieves getting clear off. Nothing was heard of the matter until a week or two ago, when Mr. Walker was accidentally passing the shop of Mr. Parker, jeweller, Corporation-buildings, Clerk enwell, when he he saw a plaited gold cross of a very peculiar description, and a number of seals and keys, which he felt quite certain formed a portion of the property of which he was robbed. The police were communicated with, and Inspector Brennan called upon Mr. Parker, and, relating the circumstances to him, told him that the property had better be produced before tho magistrate at Bow-street, where he could give such explanation as he felt necessary. Mr. Parker said the property was his, and he was quite certain, for it could not have formed a part of that stolen from Mr. Walker, as he had had it in his possession for a very long time. Mr. Walker felt so positive in the matter that the police took charge of the property, and proceedings were instituted at Bow street. Mr. Vaughan, after hearing the statement of Mr. Walker, who positively swore to a gilt cross as being his, adjudged the matter; and when it was last before the court Mr. Wakeling, the soli citor who appeared for Mr. Parker, produced a gilt cross of precisely the same description as that sworn to by Mr. Walker, which had been produced a few days previous in Gray's-inn-lane.llThis ren dered another adjournment necessary, and this morning Mr. Walker attended, when Mr. Vaughan drew his attention to the duplicate cross of the one he had sworn to as his property, and which ho said was a very peculiar one. Mr. 'Walker, after exa mining the articles, said they were quite similar. Mr. Vaughan said the identification of the pro perty by Mr. Walker had altogether failed as far as the cross was concerned, because a similar one to that stolen had been purchased by Mr. Parker, who showed that it was not of that rarity► which Mr. Walker supposed. The seals and keys were common Birmingham mrhufacture, and, under all the circumstances, he should order Mr. Inspector Brennan, who had charge of the property, to re turn them to Mr. Parker Mr, Parker said he cotld, if it had been neces sary, proved beyond all (oubt that the property had been in his possession the time he had stated, and therefore it could not live been stolen from Mr. Walker. The property was then delivered to Mr. Parker, and the parties left the3ourt.

The five men, Nugent, Brannen, Featherstone, Coffey, and Martin, Are placed in the dock at nine o'clock, and _ The Attorney General replied upon the whole case. He said but for some remarks that had fallen from the learned counsel for the prisoners he should not again have referred to the general outline of the facts of the case. He then narrated with detail the whole circumstances, alluding to the arrests of Kelly and Deasey and the attack on the van, and went on to say that the reason he repeated it was because Sergeant O'Brien had raised a point as to whether any warrant of remand had been made out. The Attorney General was prepared to trace the history of the warrant, and two clerks had been brought forward from the gaol and court for that purpose; he did not think his learned friend should have raised the point at All. Mr. Sergeant O'Brien—l never said a word about examining the witnesses. Mr. Justice Blackburn—lf you remained silent, Brother O'Brien, and the witnesses were in attend ance, it is all the same as if you assented. The Attorney-General said he assumed that his learned friend was satisfied with the evidence given on that point, and went on to say that the jury would find beyond all doubt that there was a combination of persons who were members of that absurd, wild, and desperate Fenian conspiracy, and that the prisoners formed part of the conspiracy. His learned friend (Mr. Seymour) had said that, having regard to the convictions which had already been obtained, he should have thought that justice had been sufficiently vindicated. Those conducting the prosecution were not there to ask vengeance against any one of the men in the dock, but they • were asking that those proved to;have been engagedin the attack on the van should not escape the punish ment which their crime deserved. It would be most improper on the part of the jury if, after the magis trate had committed and the grand jury found true bills against them, they had hesitated to submit their cause to a proper tribunal, to say whether they were satisfied that all the prisoners or any of them were engaged in the desperate enterprise. Bacon's case had not been clearly made out, and the prosecution had at once consented to his being released. That case, however, did not apply to the other five prisoners, and in regard to them he en dorsed most fully the remarks of their learned c , mnsel, that there was upon this occasion con siderable fear and confusion, and that consequently there might be cases of mistaken identity, but that was a question for the jury to determine. Mr. Justice Mellor then summed up, in the course of which he said that the alibi set up for Martin was a strong one, and that the witnesses who supported it were not in the least open to any imputations as to their characters. This case he impressed upon the jury to keep distinct. Then, again, with regard to Nugent, a very important alibi had been set up, and he therefore called their special attention to it. He afterwards referred re spectively to the other three prisoners, for all of whom he said an alibi had been set up, and he pointed out to the jury the importance of their carefully considering the whole of the evidence before arriving at a decision. The jury retired at 20 minutes past 1 o'clock, and some discussion arose upon the expediency of having two courts, but it was decided that one court only should sit. The court then adjourned for half an hour. NAVAL APPOINTMENTS. Ap. -- The following appointments were made at the Admiralty this afternoon : Commander E. Kelly, to 11.M.5. Mullet, commissioned.

THE CONDEMNED CONVICT MAGUlRE.—Readers of the evidence in the Fenian trial, which terminated on Friday, will not be surprised to hear that a doubt has been expressed in many quarters as to the strength of the testi mony against the convict, Thomas Maguire, the marine on furlough, opposed as that testimony was by an alibi of more than ordinary clearness and probability. The im pression that there may have been a miscarriage of justice in this case will undoubtedly receive some confirmation from the fact that a memorial to that effect has been ad dressed to the Home Socretsry by a considerable number of gentlemen representing the m3tropolitan and provincial press, including that of Manchester, who were in court, and witnessed the demeanour of the accused, and these who spoke on his behalf. The concurrent declaration of so many gentlemen, whose professional experience in courts of justice must qualify them to form an opinion, that they conscientiously believe Maguire to be innocent, may be expected to have a weight much more than com mensurate with that which the mere number of signatures —about a score—would bo likely to impart.—Manchester Examiner. ESCAPE OF A PRISONER CHARGED WITH AT TEMPTED MURDER.—A. man named Webb attempted to murder his wife at Epworth by fracturing her skull with a hammer. Believing her to be dead he proceeded a short distance on the Burnham-road, and attempted to cut his throat ; but failing to do so effectually, ho gave himself up to the polies. One evening last week he complained of feeling very cold. The policeman in whose custody he was considerately allowed him to sit near the fire, in the office adjoining the justice-room. After a time he asked the policeman if he might retire to bed, as he felt very ill. Again, with much consideration, he was allowed to go to his cell, when, on leaving the office, he adroitly locked the policeman in his own office and effected his escape, and has not since been hoard of. It was three hours before the policeman was released. MORE EXPLOSIONS AT THE OAKS COLLIERY. — BARNSLEY, 830 P.m.—About half-past 5 this after noon there was a violent explosion at the Oaks Colliery, the flames reaching nearly to the head gearing. It was followed at intervals by four others more or less violent, all occurring within an hour. It appears that the up-cast shaft had on Tuesday become a down-cast, and the men tried to make the No. 1 perform that work, for which pur pose the doors at the bottom were opened. It is apparent that there has been smouldering fire in the pit since the explosion in December, and the removing of the soil from the scaffold down the No. 2 evidently let in the air, and so caused the ignition and explosion. Happily no persons were injured. Up to 8 o'clock no more explosions bad occurred. Every precaution has been taken to prevent accidents. KILLED BY FALLINd INTO A CELLAR.—Yester day an inquest was held in the vestry room of All-hallows Church, Tower-street, on the body of Joseph Henman aged 55 years. On Moiday week the deceased was walking up Baer-lane, City, when he _fell into a cellar, the trap of which had been lef t open. He sustained such in juries that death resulted.
