TWELVE O'CLOCK. Continued ease prevails in the Discount Market, and not the slightest change can be reported in tho current rates. The directors of the Bank of Eng land, at their usual weekly court, as was generally expected, made no alteration in their terms for ac commodation. At the Bank of England yesterday there were no gold operations of importance. The Grand Trunk Railway Company of Canada have announced the payment of the half-year's in terest on the Atlantic and St. Lawrence shares, due on Monday, the 15th inst. At the sixth ordinary meeting of the Surrey Commercial Dock Company, held to-day, the directors report was presented. It states that the decrease in wood-laden vessels is attributable partly to the general depression of trade, but in a great measure to the lateness of the present season in the Baltic. Your directors anticipate a large autumn trade, and trust that by the close of the year the deficiency of tonnage will be reduced. The great development of trade in prepared flooring boards has rendered it necessary largely to extend the shed-room for their reception. The sheds are constructed at a moderate cost, and have been fully occupied throughout the season. A considerable increase of dock space has been obtained this year by the construction of landing yards, with a shallow dock for barges, on a site of 17 acres, in the vicinity of the Plough-road. On a part of this ground your directors are erecting a range of warehouses for the reception of jute and other fibres. These buildings, one of which is just completed, have been constructed specially to meet the requirements of the London Fire Offices, and have been favourably reported on by their surveyor. Your directors have, therefore, every reason to hope that a good and profitable business in this class of merchandise will be directed to this do ck. The directors recommend that a dividend of £3 per cent., free of income tax, be declared on the ordinary stock and on Preference Stock A for the six mouths ending 30th inst. An adequate amount of the company's debenture stock having been issued your directors have given the requisite notic es pursuant to the resolution passed at the e xtraordinary meeting on the 1 4 th of Septembe r, 186 5, to pay off the outstanding promissory notes. Atlantic and Great Western Railway Debentures have declined 1, to 23 23 ; but the Consolidated Mortgage Bonds remain at 21 22. . _ The last week's railway receipts, ascertained up to this day, are in round figures as under : Great Western 1867. 1566. ... 81,868 79,842 North Western. _133,333 130,092 South Waste 29 , 088 26,927 Bright on ... 30,396 25,838 Midland 60,611 54,145 Routh Eastern 34,123 29,953 Great N ort h ern ... 41,454 38,593 Lancashire and Yorkshire... 50,920 47,581 -Bristol and Exeter... 8 534 7 , 397 N north Eastern 79,244 73,901 fcanchester, Sheffield, and Lincoln 22,379 20,821 yeat Eastern ... 39,386 37,504 ,London, Chatham, and Dover ... 16,954 13,i 33 tliti)rth British ... 29,935 29,335 r i _ a :gow and South Western 12,042 10,67 3 f r at Southern and Western of Ireland... 10,600 10,137 ' 4 ' l dland and Great Western of Ireland 5,632 5,712 These returns, when compared with those of the Corresponding period of last year, aro again of a very satisfactory character.

The directors of the Varna Railway Company Vi zier, received the following letter from the Grand in reference to his Imperial M a j est y 's t Musk over the railway : (Copy.)

A general court of the directors of the Bank of England was held in the Bank-parlour this morn ing ; Newman Hunt, Esq., governor, in the chair. _ . The minutes of the last court having been read and confirmed, The CHAIRMAN said that this was ono of the quarterly general courts, appointed under the charter by N 0.12 bye-law, for making a dividend for the half year, and it was also one of the usual quarterly courts. The amount declared on the 30th August last was £629,072 16s. 101, making amount of rest on that day £3,657,003 14s. 101 ; and after providing for a dividend during the half-year at 4i per cent., the amount of rest would be £3,002,118 14s. 11d., and the dividend warrants would be delivered and paid on the 10th Oct. next, with no deduction on ac count of income-tax. He then moved that this dividend be made and warrants issued. This resolution was carried unanimously. On the motion of Mr. SEABANK, seconded by Mr. LAWRENCE LEVI, a cordial vote of thanks was passed to the governor and court of directors. The CHAIRMAN thanked the court for himself and the directors, and regretted that the dividend was not larger, but it was only what they might expect from the state of the money market.

FATAL ACCIDE:r•T.—An inquest was held yester day at Penton-place, Walworth, on the body of Harriet Moon, aged 73 years. It appeared that on Thursiay morning deceased was descending a ladder, after having fed some pigeons, when sho fell, and broke ter leg. She was carried to St. Thomas's Hospital, where she expired on Sunday. The jury returned a verdict of Accidental Death. centand John Graney, porters, working in Covent garden Market, were charged with stealing a sove reign frem the Britannia publichouse, Covent garden Market. Mr. Harrison said that about half-past eight last night his barman informed him the prisoners had taken a sovereign from the counter, while he (the barman) was giving change. He went in search of the prisoners, and found them drunk in another publichouse (the White Lion) in James-street. They denied having taken the money. He gave them in charge. This morning the mother of Vin cent called upon witness and offered to repay the £l, saying it was only taken for " a lark," and that they meant to return it. Mr. Flowers—The question is, do you believe it was taken in that way ? Witness—l can't tell, as I was not present. They are well known, and have a very good character. They certainly have been in the habit of taking more liberties in my house than I like, but some allowance was made as they were old cus tomers. Samuel Challis, the barman, said that shortly after eight o'clock a young man from the market asked him for change of a five-pound note. Witness by mistake laid six sovereigns on the counter instead of five. The prisoner Graney threw down some halfpence amongst the gold, and Vincent, in picking them up, took the extra sovereign with them. The young man took his proper change and went away. Witness de manded the sovereign from Vincent, who denied having taken it, and suggested that they should go in search of the young man who had got change, who, he said, would prove that he had not taken the sovereign. They went, but could not find the young man, and witness returned to the Britannia and told Mr. Harrison what had occurred. Mr. Flowers.--What did Graney do ? Witness—Ho asked Vincent to pass the beer. Vincent said he wag sorry for what he had done, he was drunk. John IV. Reece, a salesman in the market, stated he had employed the prisoners from time to time, especially Vincent, whom he had frequently entrusted with large amounts of money and money's worth, lie would do so again, fully believing chat the prisoners were incapable of wilful dishonesty. How they had got into this scrape he could not understand. Mr. Flowers said it was clear enough how they got into it—by getting drunk. However, if Mr. Harrison thought they did not mean to steal the money, he might be disposed to take the same view. The money, however, must in any case be restored. He should adjourn the case for a week, taking ➢lr. Reece's bail for the prisoner. If on consideration Mr. Harrison believed their story, he might retire. The prisoners must remember that it was only their good character that saved them from being com mitted for trial. Mr. Mansfield—What has been the result? Inspector Shadford—A verdict of wilful murder has been returned. Mr. Mansfield—There is no necessity for me to go into the case. She already stands convicted on the coroner's warrant. The prisoner has been in St. Pancras Infirmary since the occurrence. On the day alluded to a policeman was called to the address, and in a cellar found a full-grown male child with its head nearly severed from its body. The prisoner admitted it was her chill, and said it was a bad job. Prisoner was conveyed to Newgate. Iu opening the proceedings, Mr. Commissioner Pickeringasked if there was any one present with the keys of the Manchester Union's box, but there was no reply. Thomas Harrison, having been cautioned that without a full disclosure he would not have a certifi cate, said he is a carter now, and was no longer a member of the Ashton Brickmakers' Union. Ceased to be two years ago. Was a member 15 years. Had been president and then treasurer. It was generally discussed at meetings what should be done as to destroying bricks. The president and secretary generally decided what should be done, and the man who undertook the job decided the price. Had been president ten or a dozen times. Was president for half of 18611 Bridgewood was secretary pne three months during witness's presidency. The most witness ever paid for one job was £l5. He believed they paid £l5 for the job at Newton-wood —the co-operative mills. John Ensor carried that out, and made all the arrangements. Clifford's job was in 1860, and witness received a note from Kay that he had done work at Staleybridge and Dukin field, and he paid him £25. Kay was not of their union. One of those jobs was Clifford's, and the other Blocksaye's. Did not know that Kay had done any other damage for them. It would be entered as incidental expenses. He remembered Rogers's job, and he paid Ensor, but did not recol lect the amount paid. It would be between £5 and £l5. Did not know what was paid for the outrage at Taylor's. Recollected reading what it was—that the shed roof was burnt off, and bricks destroyed, but did not remember paying for it. Remembered Joseph Burlow's brickshed being fired. Could not remember paying Ensor for throwing needles among the clay. Paid Hepwell £5 in consequence of a note saying there had been a delegate meeting, and that the landlord wanted his rent. Remem bered the night of Jump's murder. After the men were taken up for that, subscriptions were obtained from Liverpool, Sheffield, Stockport, and other towns to defend them. There was au amalgamated society at that time. Some unions send one, some two, and some three delegates. He was a delegate. They met at the Crown and Cushion, Manchester, every six months, and while it lasted they were chiefly engaged devising plans to make the union more perfect, and to work it. Never heard any of the plans for these outrages discussed at these meetings, but if any member got into difficulty through such outrages the Amalgamated Society- would devise means to help him. Jump's case was one of these difficulties. Witness and John Barlow were dele gates to the St. Helen's Society to ask aid in that affair. A meeting was held at St. Helen's, and he attended the meeting and explained the case. He knew of the outrage then, but he had a doubt at the time if the men apprehended were the guilty persons. lie believed they afterwards received £lO to £2O from St. Helen's. 11 as a delegate to Oldham in:the same affair, and saw the president. They gave us then and here £lO, and sent more afterwards— not more than £5 or £lO. The next place they went to was Stockport. They called a meeting, and sent us £lO or £l5. Went to Birkenhead, and the union called a council meeting, and received about the same amount from them. Went to Liver pool, where they got about £3O. Went to Shef field and saw the president, a man named Stanley, who :called a meeting and they gave £l5. The total amount subscribed might be nearly £4OO. At Ashton themselves they made groat levies, but he did not know that they raised £lOO there. They paid £2OO for the defence. The other portion of the money went to " Big Johnny," who came to him and asked if there was to be "a cure," which meant getting Ensor and Gregory out of the coun try. Witness paid him £3O, and afterwards a second £3O. lie said he should want more. Witness asked no questions what he had done, but understood what it was for. He came afterwards and witness paid him two sums of £2O. Witness paid the first at the Crown and Cushion, and the second at the club-house in Liverpool. All he ever got to know of the man was that he was employed about the docks, and that he was afterwards transported for stealing wheat. " Big Johnny" said he had made Ensor and Gregory " right " when he had received £lOO. He required more money for Toole and Ryan to make them " safe," and when he had done it two more 30's and two more 20's were given for that, making £2OO in all. There might be other applications to the Unions mentioned, but did not remember them. Remembered hearing of the Reddish outrage, near Stockport, and his society gave £lO towards the defence of the men who beat Wild. The payment of the money collected was intrusted to witness and Barlow. Would swear that he never saw " Big Johnny" before he came for the money. He had happened to draw £3O not knowing Johnny would come, but Johnny seemed to know that he had drawn it. Drew the money at Manchester, and the man came and said the men had been made secure, and he paid him. By Mr. Chance—When he drew the money at the Manchester clubhouse some one remarked that he would soon have to part with it, so when "Big Johnny" asked him for the money he was prepared. " Big Johnny" was tried at Liverpool four or five years ago, and was transported. His right name was something like John Haley, and he " favert" to be an Irishman. James Kershaw sworn—ls a brickmaker, and a member of the Manchester Union. Is the president, and Henry Grieve is the secretary. Had possession of the keys on Monday night, and the officer of the court might have had them if he had not taken the box forcibly away, and they gave up the keys to their legal adviser. The keys belonged to the six keyholders. They would have given the officers anything out of the box, but for what they thought an outrage in taking the box away. He threw the two keys he had on the floor. Did not know who picked them up, on his, oath, and if he had really said he had turned them over to his legal adviser he had made a mistake. He understood their legal adviser told them to throw their keys away. There would be £6 or £8 in one of the boxes, and the regalia. Mr. Pickering—Was that finery ?—Yes, there was a flag or two, a wooden sword, and an old wig or two. (Laughter.) Another box contained the cash-book and minute-book. Had no objection to the box being broken open. Mr. W. P. Roberts, solicitor (to witness)—You don't want the box broken open ? Mr. Pickering—You must not speak to the wit ness. I beg you will understand that distinctly. We must have the rules of the Court observed. Witness further mid be had seen it noticed in the paper that the boxes would be broken open if the keys were not produced to-day. Mr. Roberts said witness could not give leave to open the box. It belonged to a society, of which he was a member only. The inquiry was then adjourned. LIVERPOOL COTTON 111ARKE7—This Day. Market opens with fair inquiry at yesterday's rates.

LOST IN TiIE LONDON.—John Carder, a ferryman, picked up in Exmouth harbour on Sunday a bottle con taining a tailor's bill, on the back of which was written — "Lost in the ship London —Francis Day. Advertise to my friends that I have £3,000 in the London and West minster Bank." The paper was immediately handed to Mr. Matthews, the collector of customs. The ship Lon don, it will be remembered, was lost in the Bay of Biscay on the 11th January, 1866.

Carden, this morning, at the Mansion-house, charged with having unlaw fully in their possession two trusses of hay, a sack of black oats, and half a sack of white oats. It appeared that the prisoner Boreham was the possessor of a horse and cart, and resided at Romford, in Essex. Last evening, according to the evidence of the police constable on duty in Pull Wharf-lane, he noticed something suspicious in the movements of the two men, who were with Boreham's cart outside the stable-yard of Mr. Morgan, the wholesale stationer, in Cannon-street. On searching the cart the hay and oats were discovered. The two men were taken to the station-house, and Boreham was sub sequently taken into custody. Ocher evidence was given to the effect that the prisoner Nunn had put a portion of the property on the side of the cart. Wm. Redgrove, a carman, aged 27, said that he worked for Alderman Rose, and that last night he saw Boreham's cart backed into Morgan's yard ; ho subsequently went along Cloak-lane, and when he came back he saw the policeman taking the cart away. lie said he would have it unloaded. He then saw what has been already described. lie did not know whose hay it was. Mr. Morgan said ho could identify the trusses, because the hay was cut in his own grounds, and the trusses wsre longer than usual. His groom managed the stable, and generally met him of a morning, but as he did not do so this morning he went round to the stable, and found the groom had left his lodgings and gone off. He had been with him two years. He did not know anything of the oats. The Inspector of Police said that if Boreham was remanded he could obtain the evidence of Alder man Rose's stable man as to the oats. Sir R. Carden said that he should deal in the case of Chalk and Nunn as being guilty of unlawful possession, and should sentence them to 21 days' hard labour. Boreham ho should remand till to morrow. Mr. Beard defended boreham. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. EXTRAORDINARY ROBBERY BY A YOUNG WOMAN.—Elizabeth Ald r id ge, a y o ung woman apparently about 20 y ears o f age, was charged before Mr. Knox with the following ingenious robbery of marked money, from the till of her employer, Mr. Robert Pool, of the Clarendon, No. 162, Oxford street. Mr. Pool said—The prisoner was in his service as housemaid. For some time past I have been mis sing money from my till, and, in consequence, made arrangements for the detection of the thief, and marked some money which I placed in the till, and this morning I was called down, the prisoner being caught in the act, when she asked me to forgive her, saying that she was very sorry and would not do it again. The marked money was produced. The prisoner had no questions to ask, but merely shook her head. Police-constable A, plain clothes officer of the D division, said—This morning at five o'clock I was let into the prosecutor's house by the prosecutor, and was concealed in a back room, there being another room between the room I was in and the bar. At a quarter past six o'clock I heard a noise as of the falling of some heavy body on to the floor, and about five minutes afterwards I heard the room door open, and, on looking through the keyhole of the room I was in, I saw the prisoner pass from the room in front of me into the bar. I waited three or four minutes, and seeing her coming out of the bar into the other room, I opened the door and " Oh, my God ! for have done anything g co iv n e fro m n e t , ed its he t r h , e wh fi e rs n t sh ti e m s e aid i wrong. Pray do not call Mr. Pool down," and she then fell on her knees and remained kneeling till Mr. Pool came down. I told her to put what she had in her pocket on the table, and she did so, and amongst the things there was the marked money which she had taken that morning. Mr. Knox—how did the young woman get into your house, Mr. Pool? Mr. Pool—l had a pretty good character with her from a coffee-shop at Knightsbridge. I began missing money a week ago, and have missed it four or five mornings since. Mr. Knox—You have other persons in your em ploy ? Mr. Pool—Yes, a barmaid aul p)tman. Icing—And suspicion was thrown on the Litter through the prisoner. The prisoner, to get to the place, had to drop over the balusters a distance of about 10ft. The prisoner pleaded guilty. Mr. Knox—The prisoner's offence is a particularly bad one, as she has not only robbed her master but caused suspicion to be thrown on innocent persons. It is a grievous offence, and in dealing with the case I shall commit the prisoner for six months with hard labour. MARYLEBONE. CHILD MURDER.—Rose Matthews, aged 20, lately in service at 21, Lawford-road, Kentish-town, was brought up on remand in custody of Inspector Shadford of the Y division, on the charge of wil- THAMES. THE MAGISTRATE AND THE SAILOR.—POLICE REGULATIONS.— Charles Darling, a well-educated seaman, whose clothes were covered with mud and dirt, was brought before Mr. Paget charged with being drunk and disorderly and assaulting Police constable Bell, 328 K. At an early hour this morning the prisoner was calling out police very loudly and repeatedly in the Commercial-road, and Bell attended upon him and asked him what was the matter. The prisoner, who was very drunk, said be had been robbed in a publichouse, but he did not know where it was or who bad robbed him. The policeman said he could not do anything for the prisoner, and advised him to go home. The prisoner made use of a good deal of bad language, told the policeman that he was of no use when his services were required, and struck him a smart blow on the chest. Bell then took the prisoner into custody. The prisoner, in defence, said he was very sorry that he had struck the policeman. Ile was very much intoxicated last night. lie was robbed of all his money, and he was vexed about his loss and did not know what he did. Mr. Paget said that, in accor3auce with a rule he had laid down, he could not allow the release of the prisoner until he had suffered seven days' impri sonment and hard labour. Ile never overlooked assaults on the police. The prisoner implored of the magistrate not to send him to prison. It would be his total ruin if he was sent away. He was second officer of a ship, anl expected promotion. All his prospects in life, his good name, his reputation, and the good opinion of his respectable friends would be at an end if he was sent to the House of Correction. No one could more regret striking the officer than him. self, and he should ever feel the degrading positio❑ he was in. Mr. Paget, after putting some questions to the prisoner, which he answered satisfactorily, and after a long pause, said he was going to do a thing which he never did before, forgive a man who had com mitted an assault on a police officer. lie would allow the prisoner to be discharged, and his princi pal reason for doing so was that the prisoner had been robbed of his money. Soon after the parties left the court, Mr. Paget received a communication from Mr. Livingston, the chief usher, which induced him to call the parties into the court again, and the Magistrate said he was informed the constable would have to make a report to the Commissioners of the reasons which induced him to take the prisoner into custody. lie wished it to be understood most distinctly that the con stable was perfectly justified in what he had done, and that there was no imputation whatever on his conduct. Police-sergeant Gamble, No. 49 K, said the con stable would not get into disgrace by the discharge of the prisoner, and that he (Gamble) would have to report on the case. Police-sergeant 'Harvey, 276 A R, said he was doing duty ou the II division, where every constable had to report on his conduct when he preferred a case of assault, and it wag dismissed. Mr. Paget--I want to take care that not the slightest imputation shall rest on the constable. After sonic discussion, it was suggested to the magistrate that the prisoner should be bound over to keep the peace, and that would relieve the police constable of the necessity of making a report, and Mr. Paget adopted that course. Mr. Porson, the junior clerk, then "bound over" the prisoner in the following recognizance : You hereby acknowledge yourself to be indebted to our Sovereign Lady the Queen in the sum of £lO on condition that you keep the peace and be of good behaviour to all her Ma jesty's subjects, and especially towards Daniel Bell, for the space of six months. Are you content? The Prisoner—Yes, sir. Mr. Paget —I will allow you to be discharged. FIRES AND LOSS OF LIFE. Shortly after midnight a most destructive fire broke out in the waterside district of Rotherhithe, which consumed fourteen houses, beside the ship Chancellor, and deprived nearly 100 persons of all they possessed. The fire commenced at a house in Rotherhithe-street, inhabited by a baker named Adams. It was first discovered by the policeman on duty, and the slumbering inhabitants were res cued. It then spread to the extent described. The steam floating engines and Shand and Mason's land steamers soon arrived, and rendered valuable assist ance, by which means the fire was gradually sub dued. Many were uninsured, and those, too, have lost their all. A fire, attended with a fatal result, also occurred this morning in Harcourt-street, Marylebone-road, at the house of a hatter named Hunings. The family were roused by the police, and succeeded, with the exception of the proprietor himself, in escaping. MARKETB.:—This day. METROPOLITAN CATTLE.

TILE FOXIIUNTERS AND FARMERS OF SURREY AND SUSSEX.—The farmers in these counties have arranged with masters of hunts to abstain from hunting fox coverts for cubs till October, in consequence of the outstand ing crops. Tho process of drawing the fox brakes and gorse is pursued previous to the hunting season fur a double double purpose, viz., of breaking up and dispersing the litters of fox cubs over the country, and giving young hounds blood and scent of future sport, but as young reynard would take shelter in the corn when outside from his lair, the young hounds in pursuit would cause damage to the crops. Thus brushing of fox coverts is deferred until the harvest is completed, and the cubs will have some weeks' immunity.
