The bullion operations at the Bank to-day com prised an influx of £6,000, and a withdrawal of £3,000 for Egypt. The following is Messrs. Alexander Collie and Co's report of the state of business at Manchester, dated Friday, Nov.l :—There is no marked feature observable in our market to-day. The dullness which set in on Monday subsequent to the activity of last week has continued until now, and there is no prospect of an early change. Prices are lower, but owing to the heavy engagements of producers the reduction is inconsiderable. Shirtings may be quoted 3d., mulls and jacconets lid pa- piece, and yarns -Id per lb. less. Printing cloths are weaker, but quotations are unaltered. Late telegrams from Calcutta report a better market, and an advance of 4 annas on 84 shirtings. THE ATLANTIC AND GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY. We are requested to insert the following:- -_ TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. desire to draw attention to a point with reference to the Atlantic and Great Western Rail way that seems to have been overlooked. It will be remembered that the debenture debt was created in 1861 under the authority of the three Atlantic and Great Western Companies chartered by the States of Ohio, Pennsylvania, and New York. At the time of the issue of the debentures the extent of the mortgage debts of the three companies was well known to be restricted to certain amounts, and it was supposed, and so stated, that the value of the property of each company was greater than the amount of mortgage debt of each company. H ence a certain credit was attached to each corporation, and the debentures therefore obtained pur chasers, it being known that whatever balance, if any, that might be due to the holders there of, after the sale of the collateral securities, would be a claim upon the respective companies. A year afterwards, under acts of consolidation passed by the three States, the three companies were dissolved, and a new company was formed. By a clause in each of the Acts of Consolidation the property of the three companies was transferred to the new company, subject to all the debts of the three companies. Subsequently, a mortgage of 30 million dollars was created by the new company against the property so acquired, and the general impression is that that mortgage outranks the de benture debt. Such, however, is not the case, be cause the property acquired by- the new company was, by the legislative enactments, liable to all the debts of the individual companies, and the consoli dated mortgage, therefore, covered the property, subject to the restrictions upon it, and those restrictions consisted in the property being responsible for the debts hitherto incurred by tile respective companies. A railroad company obtains credit, not by reason of its being a corporation, but by reason of its having property. It would be a monstrous thing if the Legislature of a State could authorise a company to part with its property to another company, without providing for the pay ment of its debts. But the Legislatures of Ohio, Pennsylvania, and New York took care of the cre ditors of the three original companies • they would not permit the comp an i es to part with ;heir property without securing their creditors. Some doubts have been expressed as to the solidity of the Consolidated Bonds, but it is immaterial to the Debenture holders whether those bonds are valid or not, as the deben tures rank first after the divisional Bonds, and the Consolidated Bonds come afterwards.—l am, Sir, your obedient servant, There was no material variation in the Foreign Ex changes this afternoon.

The busi ness doing was by no means extensive, nevertheless Mon day's advance in the quotations was well supported. The imports of foreign wheat having boon seasonably extensive, millers operated in all kinds cautiously. In prices, however, wo have no chang e t o not i ce. Tho sup- - ply on offer was rather extensive. The transactions in floating cargoes of grain wore only - moderate. In prices very little change took place. Both English and foreign barley was in short supplyand fair request, at last week's currency. The malt trade ruled steadily, on former terms. The supply of malt was rather limited. Oats moved off steadily, at previous rates. The imports have been tolerably good. Both beans and peas wore steady in price. The flour trade was inactive, at Monday's prices.

TILE OUTRAGE IN BURTON CRESCENT.—John Seates, who stood remanded with being concerned in the outrage on Police-constable Saunders, in South Ores Cent-mews, was brought up. Superintendent Searle said the evidence he had to offer on that occasion would be merely corrobo rative testimony relative to tho evidence already given, that of the constable who apprehended th( prisoner, and that of the divisional surgeon relative to the condition of the injured man. He, how ever, was in a positio❑ to say that if anoCier re m And was granted he should be enabled to bring forward some evidence of a very important nature in connection with the case. Mr. Vaughan said, after such a communication, he would have no hesitation in remanding the pri soner, and, therefore, the police-sergeant who apprehended the prisoner hal better give h s evi dence. Sergeant Chown, of the 2❑d division, sail—On the morning of the 29th of October, about a quarter past 11, he was watching the house No. 7, Bruns wick-street, in which the parents of the prisoner re sided, when he saw the prisoner come up to the street door, which he opened with a key. When he got into the passage witness asked him if his name was John Scates. Ile said " ye," on which witness told him he was a police-con stable, and that be should take him into custody on suspicion of being concerned in the assault of George Saunders, a police-con stable, in North -crescent Mews. lie said—." It's not me you want. I'm not the man whot shot the policeman. I've just been to Charlton fair, and I have just come from Draper's-place in order to see Jack Thomas, and ascertain if I could get a night's lodging. Not succeeding, I went to the mews to sleep that night, and as I was about to get into the van 1. heard the shot fired. Iran to the con stable's assistance, and asked him if he would allow me to spring his rattle, which ho refused to do." Witness said he had been watching the house ever since the morning of the assault, until ho took the prisoner into custody on the 29th ult. Mr. Vaughan asked the prisoner if lie had any questions to put to the witness, but he made no reply. In reply to the magistrate, Dr. Paul, the divi sional surgeon, said the injured man was quite un able to attend, and if any statement at the present time was taken from him he did not think it could be relied upon. Mr. Vaughan said the present evidence taken in ;connection with that already given, was quite sufficient to justify him iu remanding the prisoner. It was then arranged that the prisoner should be again brought up on Wednesday next. DEATH OF 2:HE EARL OF BOSSE, K.P. A telegram from Dublin informs us of the death of the Earl of Rosse, which took place yesterday at his residence in that city, after a protracted illness. It is a remarkable fact that three distinguished men —distinguished for their great knowledge in astro nomical science—namely, the Earl of Rosse, Sir James South, and Lord Wrottesley--have died within a period of 10 days, men who have left a mark behind them in scientific progress. The late Earl of Rosse had contributed papers to the Philo sophical Transactions of th•! P. - .)yal Society, and bad been awarded the royal medal by that learned body, of which he was president from November, 18i8, to November, 1851. lie WAS' a member of many learned and scientific societies, and also of the Im perial Academy of St. Petersburg. lie was also nominated a member of the Legion of Honour of France for his great scientific attainments. Tli , ‘ noble earl's name will for ever be identified with the wonderful telescope he erected on his estate at Par sonstown, in Ireland—a work of great labour, ex pense, and time—commenced in 1828 and com pleted in 1845, at the outlay of upwarcls of .Z 20,000. It still remains the most wonderful instrument in Europe, being the largest and most perfect ever constructed. The late Right Hon. William Parsons, Earl of Rosse, county Wexford, and Baron Oxmantown, county Dublin, in the peerage of Ireland, of which his lordship was a representative peer in the House of Lords, was the eldest son of Laurence, second Earl of Rosse, by his wife Alice, daughter of Mr. John Lloyd, of Gloster, King's County, and was born 17th June, 1800, and married 14th April, 1836, Mary, eldest daughter and co-heir of the late Mr. John Warren Field, of Heaton Hall, Yorkshire, by whom, who survives him, he leaves issue three sons, the eldest, Laurence, Lord Oxmantown, born in 1810, being successor to the title. The highly respected earl was educated at the Dublin University before going to Magdalen Col lege, Oxford, at which university he took high honours, being first class in mathematics in 1822. He was M.P. for King's County, Ireland, in the House of Commons from 1821 to 1834, and suc ceeded his father in the earldom in 1841. In 1845 he was elected a representative peer of Ireland, and had been Lord Lieutenant of King's County Militia front 1831. Since 1862 he had filled the distin guished post of the Chancellor of the University of Dublin. Latterly ho had directed his attention to the local interests of Ireland, and had published a very valuable pamphlet on the state of that country. The deceased nobleman was a Conservative in politics, and during the last Session of Parliament invariably supported the Government, and was among the peers who voted for the Reform Bill. The late Earl of Itosse, independently of his great scientific attainments, was a genial companion and a liberal landlord. By his friends and tenantry he was deserredly beloved.

Harris and Abel Cornwell, two young men, were charged before Mr. Knox as follows : Mr. Win. Stevens, a retired tradesman residing in Stafford-street, Lisson-grove, said that he was passing through Regent-street about ono o'clock in the morning in company of his brother, when two females accosted them. He zequested them to go away, and as they did not do so he pushed ono of them away, upon which she gave a signal, and one of the prisoners came across the road and struc k him. He retaliated, and then the other prisoner came across and struck him, and also his brother. One of the females took his walking stick from him, and one of the prisoners took it from her and struck him a violent blow on the cheek with it. Mr. Thomas Stevens, brother of the previous wit ness, said that as soon as the female gave a signal one of the prisoners came across the street and said to his (witness's) brother, " Who are you ?" and then gave a whistle, and the other prisoner then came across. Both prisoners then assaulted him and his brother, but it being a dark spot he could not speak positively as to which of the two assaulted him, but after one had assaulted him he left him and went to his brother, and the two prisoners as3aiilted his brother. One of the females got the stick from his brother and gave it to one of the prisoners, who struck him with it. A cabman seeing the prisoner striking him with a stick lent him hi; whip to de fend himself with, and he did so till the constable came up. He was positive the two prisoners were the men who assaulted them. Police-constable James Billett, 223 C, said that ho was on duty in Regent-street, and a few minutes before one ho saw the two prisoners and two females pass him and then separate, and Cornwell went across the road to Chapel-place, and then called out "Bill" as loud as he could, and Harris ran across the road, and ho (Billett) then heard cries of " Police" and " Murder," and tho two females ran across the road just before him, and on going into the court he saw Cornwell and the first witness on the ground together. He took Cornwell into cu stody, and on getting into King-street Harris was recognised by the last witness as one of the two who had assaulted him, and he was also taken into custody. In answer to Mr. Knox, the constable said that both prisoners appeared to have been engaged in a recent struggle, as there was mud on their clothes. Harris said that he was pushed against by one of the complainants and knocked down without any provocation, and all he did was in self-defence. He did not consider that it was likely that two small fellows like him and Cornwell would attack two such men as the complainants. Cornwell said he was sorry for what had occurred, but he only took his own part. He was a brick layer, but not in work of late. Mr. Knox said that he was far from thinking the assault a common one. He would like to know whether the prisoners were known. Inspector Bowles handed Mr. Knox a book, and from it it appeared that Harris had been convicted of larceny, and sentenced to four years' penal ser vitude, and that he was in possession of a ticket of leave. Harris said that he had been endeavouring to live honestly ever since he had been at large, and he hoped the magistrate would give him a chance. Mr. Knox said he was not going to do anything at present. There was nothing one would not do to help him (Harris) in his unfortunate position, but with such a character as he had got ho ought to know that he should not be walking the streets at such an hour. The case had a very serious look about it, as nothing was more common, as was well-known at that office, than for women to stop men, and if the men resisted the demands for getting in connection with the females to walk up and attack and rob the men. He should order strict inquiries to be made respecting the course o f life Harris had been pursu ing since he had received his ticket, and also respectingCornwell,and he would inform the prisoners that not only would they receive punishment for their offence, but Harris would go back to Portland and serve the rest of his time. Tho prisoners would be remanded. Mr. Isaacson, laceman, of Regent-street, and whose house is situated at the corner of Chapel court, stepped forward, aLd said that he had to com plain of tho insufficiency of police protection at night iu Regent-street, such outrages as the one ho had heard detailed Wing of frequent nightly occurrence in Chapel -court. On tho present occasion all the persons in his house, principally fornales, were woke up by screams of " Murder !" the court. Being a householder and a large rate payer, he considered that something ought to be done to stop the nuisance. Mr. Knox said that Mr. Isaacun's complaint should be attended to. AIR OF THE HOUSE OF CO3IIIONS.—MI large attendance of members last session made it necessary to send more air than usual through the houso. Upwards of 2,500,000 cubic feet were supplied per hour. It was ori ginally designed to supply air from a great height—viz. from the clock tower, but it was not found by experience, that the air was so pure as the air from below, and it is now drawn from the two courts of the House, the Star- Court and the Commons-court. Complaints were made that a smell of tar, or a smell from something going on by the side of the river, was drawn into the house. The ave rage temperatuie maintained in the house is 62 deg. In hot weather the air cannot be kept down to that, but the greater heat is then counteracted by increasing the velo city of tho air, BANK OF FRANCE PARIS, Oct. 31.

Those unacquainted with it would hardly believe that there are as many as 50 King-streets in London, nearly as many Queen-streets, above 60 George-streets, 60 William streets, and about 45 "New" -streets. This last name often, as may bo supposed, greatly misleads strangers, who ima gine that such streets aro only of recent construction. Until the modern conversion of the "New-road" into City road, Euston-road, and lll, trylebone-road, there were along its entire length places and terraces with every conceiv able name, and as many as between 50 and 60 different enumerations of numbers. Nor must it be considered that recently-constructed London is exempt from blemishes of this nature. The word " Westbourne" appears no loss than 19 times in the Postal Guide—there are Westbourne crescent, Westbourne-grove (the Regent-street of West burnia), and then not only Wesnourne Park, but West bourne Park-cottages, Westbourno Park-crescent, West bourne Park-place, Westbourno Park-road, Westbourne Park-road West, Westbourne Park-terrace, Westbourne Park-villas, Westbourno-place (Bishop's-road), West bourne-square, Westbourn3-street (Paddington), West bourne-terrace (Bayswater), VVestbourne-terrac.(Bishop's road), and Upper Westbourne-terrace —so far for the northern side of Hyde Park; but on the southern there are —Westbourno-street, Pimlico (to distinguish it from Westbourne-street (Paddington), and Westbourne-place, Eaton-square. Finally, the list winds up with Westbourne road, Holloway. Not so numerous in its locations, but equally puzzling and unsatisfactory, is "Kensington." Besides that name, there are—Kensington-crescent, Kensington-road, Ken sington -gate, Kensington-gore, High-street, Kensington ; Kensington-hall, North-end, Fulham, and Kensington square on tho south side of Hyde Park. Kensington Pa lace and Kensington Palace-gardens aro situate between Kensington and Bayswater, Kensington Gardens-square is in Paddington, Kensington Gardens-terrace is in Bays water-road, Kensington Park-gardens and Kensington Park-terrace are nt Notting-hill. It is noedles to dwell upon the inconvenience and trouble to which such nomenclature gives rise. Sir John Thwaites, Mr. Tite, Mr. P.

REMARKABLE DREAM.—Last week Williatit Stringfellow, about 22 years of age, residing at Sutton-in- A Afield, left home under rather mysterious circumstances. Ills friends sought him, but without success. On Friday night Samuel Burton, a blacksmith, dreamed that String fellow had drowned himself in the Caudwell water, some two miles distant front Sutton, and that ho (Burton), while standing on the left-hand side of the shuttle, had succeeded in dragging him out by the back part of his boot. On Satur day Barton told several of his neighbours of his dream, and they proceeded to the spot to drag for Stringfellow. The second time the drag was thrown into the water the body of Stringfellow was brought to the top, exactly in the posi tion described by Arton—by the back of the boot and stocking. It is supposed.that disappointment in love was the OUP) of the &mod committing suicide,--Leeds Mrcury. ANOTHER POLICEMAN SIIO7 . LAST NIGHT. All kinds of wild stories aro current in the neigh bourhood with respect to the affair, the outrage being, of course, attributed to Fenianism. Naval and Military Intelligence. Yesterday the 4th Dragoon Guards at Aldershot, under the command of Col. Shute, forined up in the Long Valley at half-past 10 o'clock for inspection by Lieut.-Gen. the Hon. Sir James Yorke Scarlett, K.C.8., commanding the division. The regiment receivel the General with the usual salute ; he then inspected the line, after which the regiment marched past by wings, trotted past by sections—the rear squadron galloping past and cutting pursuing prac. tice—then trotted past by squadrons, and galloped past, left in front, by wings. The regiment then wheeled into lino, changed front to the left on the second squadron, and charged up to the markers ; then retired by fours from the left of squad rons on the move, the rear rank leading ; reformed column, fronted, and performed the sword exercise and pursuing practice at the gallop. In retiring they again reformed on the move, the rear rank leading, advanced at a trot, changed position by wings, then advanced in column' of troops from the left. The right wing, having wheeled into line advanced at a trot; the left wing on the move formed line on the right wing, retired in column of troops from the left of wings, formed line on the rear troop, and retired in column of troops from the left of wings. The right wing attacked and retired; the left wing attacked and threw out skirmishers ; the skirmishers ceased firing, and pursued ; they were then recalled and the line attacked. This ended the manoeuvres, and the regiment advanced in parade order and gave the usual salute. The men were then formed into three sides of a square, and were addressed by the Lieut.-General, who said he had never seen any regiment perform the ma noeuvres with greater celerity and precision. lie alSo said it gave him great pleasure to compliment the regiment in the presence of Gen. Hodge, under whom it had served with such distinction in the Crimea. The regiment then returned to barracks. The inspection derived unusual importance from the fact of demonstrating that cavalry can be worked with an amount of celerity and precision calculated to counteract in a great measure the new weapons of war just introduced. The divisional field-days by the troops at Chatham having terminated for the season, an order was yesterday issued by Major-Gen. F. Murray di recting the wholeof the officers and men of the divi sion to be exercised in route marching on periodical days daring the winter months until further orders. The section of B troop of the Royal Engineer Train at Aldershott, under o: tiers to proceed to Chatham, will march from camp on the sth instant., and proceed, according to the ronto which will be indicated, to its destination. The A troop, by which it will be replaced at Aldershott, is expected to arrive at that station as follows :—One, officer, 31 men, 21 women, and 24 children, by rail, on the sth inst. ; 3 officers, IG3 mon, and 137 horses, by march, on the Bth inst. Lieut. T. Fraser, who has been appointed assist ant instructor in field fortifications at the Royal Engineer establishment, Chatham, joined at head quarters yesterday, and took up his appointment. Her Majesty's Indian troopship Jumna arrived at Suez on the evening of the 30th of October. The troops which she brought from Calcutta will be embarked on board the Crocodile at Alexandria, and may be expected at Portsmouth on or about the 14th of November. The 23d Regiment of Infantry (Royal Welsh nisiEre) disembarked yesterday afternopn, accord ing to the official arrange►nents, from her Majesty's screw troopship Himalaya, alongside Portsmouth dockyard, undersuperintendence of the Staff officers of Lieut.-Gen. Sir G. Buller, K.C.8., the Lieut. Governor of Portsmouth and Military Commander n-Chief of the South-west District. The head• quarters of the regiment, accompanied by the mag nificent goat presented to the regiment some years since by her Majesty, left the dockyard by a special train at 6 p.m. for Newport and C ar diff. Four companies left the dockyard at 5 p.m., by a spe cial train for Brecon. The invalided soldiers brought home with the 23d in the Himalaya were transferred yesterday morning by the Flo rence Nightingale, hospital transport launch, to the Royal Victoria Military Hospital at Netloy. The time-expired soldiers were forwarded by steamboat and rail to the depots of their respective regiments.

THE REPRESENTATION OF SOUTH LEICESTER SHIRE.—The Liberals in the South Leicestershire division are already taking active measures to secure the return of Mr. T. Paget to Parliament, in the place of the late Mr. C. W. Packo. A most numerously signed requisition is being got up from all parts of the division for presentation to Mr. Paget. On the other hand the Conservatives are not idle. A day or two ago, Mr. W. V. Heygate, for the borough, now of Ulverscroft, was solicited to con test the vacant seat, but he has just declined the invita- tion. The name of Viscount Ingestre has also been men tioned, but the " coming man" is looked for in. Dir. Albert Peel, chairman of the Central Chambor 'of Agriculture. The register is said never to have beau in such au evenly balanced state as at the present time% Last night another of those outrages, which are now becoming most serious, occurred in the neigh bourhood of llornsey. It appears that at forty minutes past nine o'clock Police-constable O'Brien, belonging to the mounted division, was proceeding along an obscure portion of his beat, which is known in the locality of Ilornsey as Tantidown lane, when his attention was attracted to two men. who w,‘r I;: a &id off the mein path. Having secured his horse the pollee-constable pro ceeded toward 3 the two men, and from certain sus picious appearances the constable desired to examine the contents of a small parcel in the possession of one of the men. The request of the officer was met by a refusal, and a quarrel ensued, when one of the ruffians drew a pistol front his pocket and presented it at the can3table's breast. O'Brien at once warded off the weapon with hi; hand, when the man ia tantly Rifled the trigger and the charge took effect in the constable's hand and arm. The shock of the wound rendered the constable insensible for some time, during which both men effected their escape. Surgical aid was obtained for the wounded man as early as possible, but the wound is so severe that should the unfortunate man recover from the shock he has received, he will be maimed for life. .ITII. ~, 911 .1; 911 103! 8 1101 1 1 THIRD ED-ITION.
