The Massalia has arrived from 13(nnbay, via Alexandria, with £3,700 in sp ec i e. The return from the Bank of England for the PaA week is of a character that was generally an ticipated. In the Bullion there has been a decrease of £474,796, and ~in the v reserve v of notes of £223,365. while the private securities have been lessened to the extent of £143,923, and the private balances by £357,551.

No further particulars are known, but that a recent endeavour had been made to reduce th e capital, w hi c h, w ith th e diffi cu lti es s till pend ing, adverse reports got abroad, no doubt causing the collapse.

The report of the directors of the Chontales Gold and Silver Mining Company, to be presented at the me eting to be held on the 29th inst., states that the " tre etors have no d o ubt of the yield being ample, a n d that the existing plantis adequate to give returns that will pay current expenses, but they cannot conceal 'Nal the shareholders that the failure in the supply o f native labour has upset their calculations, and m ay therefore prevent the realisation of profit as }3OOll as was expected. In the Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets, "ring the last few days, there has been rather less a nimation. Only moderate transactions have been entered into in tea, at about previous rates. There has been a rather limited demand for sugar, hat prices are generally well maintained, as holders show no disposition to press sales. Coffee has been in fair request, superior descriptions of Colonial finding ready buyers at full values. In rice there has been a moderate business reported, at steady prices, while tallow has ruled a shade cheaper fo r pre sent as well as forward delivery.

We learn with regret that the crime of stealing wheelbands—a form of robbery with which Sheffield has been too familiar—is not wholly put down. This most disgraceful description of theft has been renewed at Messrs. Ward and Payne's, whose busi ness—the edge-tool trade—is well known to be one of the best paid branches for workmen. The bands taken are those used by a workman who is said to be in arrears with his society. The following cor respondence has taken place between Mr. Ward and the secretary. There are numerous old and re spectable workmen in the edge and tool branch who are disgusted with this attempt to renew criminal practices, and who will rejoice if a spirited effort is made to stamp it out. " Oct. 23, 1867. To the Secretary of the Edge-tool and Wool-shear Grinders. " Sir,—"We beg to inform you that a case of rattening has again occurred at our grinding wheel, in the removal of some of our wheelbands, and since it was clearly proved before the Trades Inquiry Commission that these proceedings were connived at by the secretaries and the unions, we beg to state that the bands must be forth. coming before work is resumed.—We, are, yours respectfully, " WARD AND PAYNE." " Sheffield, Oct. 23, 1867. " Dear Sir,—ln answer to your note of this date, allow me to inform you that it is no news to me that some bands have been removed from your grinding wheel, as I heard of it yesterday, and your men, or those of your men who told me, can bear me out that I know nothing about them, as I distinctly told them that they who had removed them must re place them. Certainly Ido not expect to be believed because I am secretary. In respect to your men not being allowed to resume work, that is entirely your own business. The men will want their wages, and think they can get them, either from our funds or from you as their employer, but that is a matter which does not concern me ; certainly I would rather hear of some arrangement being made betwixt you, and believe me in all sincerity yours, " SAML.

Last night a man, who said his name was Samuel Aluggeridge, described himself as storekeeper to a co-operative society, and gave the address 7, Pulteney-court, Silver-street, Golden-square, wont to Bishopsgate-street Police-station and gave him self up to tho acting inspector on duty at the station (Sergeant Henry Williams, No. 11, City Police), stating that he was the man who accident ally shot the Life Guards bandsman, Edwin M'llon nell, in Vernon=place, Bloomsbury-square, on the night of the 27th or morning of the 28th of Sep tember. The charge was entered on the police sheet, and he was locked up. He wa3 su')jected to a medical examination ; the surgeon expressed an opinion that he was of sound mind, and at present sober, though probably but recently recovered from intoxication. lie bears 110 resemblance to Groves; he is taller, darker in complexion, and has whiskers. BOW-STREET.—This DAY. EXAMINATION OF THE PRISONER. Samuel Muggeridge, aged about 35, rather tall, compactly built, of a dark complexion, and dressed in a light brown overcoat, was placed before Mr. Vaughan charged on his own confession with having murdered Edwin APDonnell on the night of the 28th of September. Sergeant Williams said--1 am acting inspector in the City police. Yesterday afternoon about 20 minutes to 4 o'clock the prisoner came to me and stated that he wished to give himself up for the murder of the bandsman M'Donncll. lie was per fectly sober, knew what he was saying and doing, but he had had something to drink. lie was asked his name by the inspector, and said it was Brown. He afterwards said it was no use telling a story, that his right name was Samuel Muggeridge, and that he resided at No. 7, Pulteney-court, Silver street, Golden-square. He further stated that he had been to the Amphitheatre, Holborn, that evening, and after having left there, and not far from the theatre, he fired a pistol by way of a lark between two men, and accidentally shot one. He was asked by the inspec tor what day it was that the matter occurred, to which he replied that he could not tell exactly, it might have been the 26th or 27th of September. He was asked if he had any pistols about him or at home, and he said he had none about him, but two would be found at his lodgings. The one ho had shot the bandsman with he had thrown into the Thames—over the middle arch of London-bridge. Ho was then asked if ho still adhered to the state ment, and he said—" I do, and 1 don't wish to say anything further." I searched the prisoner, but did not find anything of importance upon him. Mr. Vaughan—Nothing with respect to this charge ? Witness—Nothing but a small quantity of powder, a pocket-book, a penknife, and key. Mr. Vaughan—Did he mention the name of the man that was shot, and where ? Witness—No, your worship ; he said the bands man. Mr. Vaughan—You have heard what the witness has said. Do you wish to ask him any questions ? Prisoner—No, your worship. Inspector Brennan, of the F division of police, said the last witness brought the prisoner to the Bow-street station about 20 minutes to six. I have heard his evidence. He repeated it to me in the prisoner's presence last night. I asked the prisoner if he had heard what the sergeant said, and whether it was correct. lie said " Yes, it was." I told him it would be my duty to charge him on his own confession with having murdered M‘Donnell, when he said, "I did not murder him, but accidentally shot between them. I had been drinking at the time." 1 told him I was going to ask him a ques tion, but that he need not answer it unless he liked, but that whatever he said I should have to report it to the magistrate. I then asked him when the matter occurred. He said, "On the 26th or 27th of September last, but I am not certain as to the date." I asked him where it took place, and ho replied, " I don't know exactly where it took place, but it was not far from the Amphitheatre, Holborn, where I had been." I asked him if he was by himself at the time, and he said, " No, I was with a friend of mine. I object to tell you his name ; he had no idea I was going to fire the pistol, and he tried to stop me when I did do so, but I had not intended to bit either; but I shot ono of them and ran away." I asked him whore the revolver was, and ho replied, " Over London-bridge ; I threw it over the next day, thinking I might be discovered. I threw it away for the reason that it has been a source of each misfortune to me ; that is all I have to say, and it is a voluntary statement." When I read the charge over to him, he said, " I have not murdered him; I shot him accidentally." I asked him where ho got the pistol from. He said " I've had it in my possession a very long time ; about five years. I had it when I was at Constan tinople. I bought it from one of the sailors on board ship when I was there; it was a six-shot revolver. I threw tho pistol over the centre of the bridge, on the left hand side." After I had taken the charge I read it over, and 1 asked him if he had any objection to sign it, and he said "No," and then signed the written statement I produce. I directed the last witness (Sergeant Williams) to make out a statement of what the prisoner said to him at the Bishopsgate station. He did so. I read that statement over to the prisoner, and he said, " They are both perfectly correct, and I have no objection to sign them." The statement of Sergeant Williams I also produce. Mr. Superin tendent Durkin was present during the whole of the time the charge against the prisoner was being taken, and Inspector Thompson during a portion of it. Inspector Thompson asked the prisoner a question or two. Mr. Vaughan—Did the prisoner appear to you to be labouring under excitement at the time he made the statement ? Witness—He appeared to have been drinking in the early part of the day. Mr. Vaughan—Was he calm and colleoted at the time? Witness—Yes, very. Mr. Vaughan—What made you think ho had been drinking? Witness—His face was flushed. Mr. Vaughan—Did he assign any reason for making the statement ? Witness—l have repeated word for word, all that the prisoner has stated. I now recollect that the prisoner said he had been tasting wino at the docks in the early part of the day. In the late part of the evening Furber came to the station. I placed the prisoner amongst 18 others, when Furber re cognised the prisoner to a certain extent, but ho said he thought the person who fired the pistol that killed 1116 Donnell was taller than the prisoner. Mr. Vaughan--WO will have that f r o m F ur b er himself. Mr. Vaughan—Do you wish to ask thi s w it ness any question ? Prisoner—None, sir. Superintendent Searle, of the E division of police, said—About seven o'clock last night, bearing the prisoner was in custody on his own confession, I proceeded to his lodgings, accompanied by Inspec tor Thompson. On searching a drawer, in the front room of tho first floor, I found two pistols (produced). Ono was loaded, the other was not. Mr. Vaughan—What are they, revolvers? IVitness—No, your worship, single barrels. Mr. Vaughan—Are the barrels rifled or smooth ? Witneis—Smooth barrels, your worship. I had had the ball with which M'Donnell was l Wed, but it was not large enough to have come from either of the pistols. From other matters connected with the case, I am quite sure the bullet was never fired from either of the pistols produced. On my return to the station I told prisoner I had found the pistols, when he said the shot was not fired from either of them. The one the shot was fired from ho brought from Constantinople. I saw a man named Ripley last night, who has been assisting the prisoner ately on Saturday nights, and I inquired whether he had been out with the prisoner. Ripley said that he:recollected being out with the prisoner about SHARE LlST—This Day. Share; Railways. I I Paid.l 1 ' ristol and Exeter ....

Inspector Thompson said—l was present where the prisoner was being charged. I asked him, as he had said he had brought the pistol with which he shot the man from Constantinople, whether hes knew how many grooves were in the barrel. Be said he did not. There were several. There mig lit have been five, six, or seven. He told me he oec . 1- pied the shop, kitchen, and first floor of the hou se in Pulteney-court. I accompanied Mr. Searle witrn the prisoner's lodgings were searched. Mr. Vaughan—Do you wish too , ask the witness any question? Prisoner—No ; none. Henry Furber was then called into the witness box, when Mr. Vaughan said—You were with the man M‘Donnell when he was shot at Vernon-place. You saw there two men together when the unfor tunate bandsman was shot. Witness—Yes, sir. Mr. Vaughan—Were you yesterday evening re• quested to go into the station yard of the Bow-street police ? Witness—Yes. Mr. Vaughan—Was Mr. Brennan there at the time ? Witness—Yes. Mr. Vaughan—Were there a number of men in the yard at the time differently dressed ? 'Witness--Yes. There were abort 1G or 17 ; there might be more. Mr. Vaughan—lt was dark at the time ? Witness—Not very—there was gaslight. Mr. Vaughan—Did you know the purpose for which you were going ? Witness—Yes, to identify a man. Mr. Vaughan—Did you see amongst those per sons any one whom you could identify ? Witness—No, sir. I said the prisoner was about the height of the man who shot 111‘Donnell. Mr. Vaughan—Were you able to speak to his features ? Witness—The man I saw in Vernon-place was not so dark as the man at the bar. Mr. Vaughan—Could you say the prisoner at the bar was not one of those men ? Witness—l think ho was not. Mr. Vaughan—Have you any further evidence ? Inspector Brennan—No, sir. Mr. Vaughan—Prisoner, did you consult any of yoar friends before you made the statement you did ? Prisoner—No, your worship ; and I can't ima gine what made me make such an absurd statement as I did to my friends. Mr. Vaughan—lt certainly seems an extraordi nary thing that a man should go in a calm and col lected manner as you did and make such a statement. Prisoner—l had been drinking hard the last two or three weeks. Mr. Vaughan•—ls there any of the prisoner's friends present ? A respectably dressed woman stepped forward and said—l am the prisoner's mother. I perfectly recollect when he returned home. I am quite sure he had no pistol when he arrived in England. He was professor in a college there, and I don't believe he would have been allowed to have kept one in Turkey. The pistols found belonged to my husband, and were put in the drawer out of the way of the children. Mr. Vaughan--110 you know whether the prisoner has suffered from any delusions arising from a dis ordered mind ? Witness—Yes, very many. He has been much disappointed in not obtaining a situation abroad. He has been very much dejected for som , ?, time, and for the last two months he has been drinking very much, and his business has been greatly affected, which had preyed upon his mind. He was not a butcher, but kept alk ind of store, but he has been losing money ever since he opened it. He was a professor of lan guages in one of the colleges at Constantinople. Mr. Vaughan—l have no doubt after what I have heard from your mother that you were suffer ing from some hallucination when you made the statement you did, and I can only say it is a great pity that you have not been placed under some surveillance to prevent your doing mischief to yourself and the public. Under such circumstances I feel it my duty to dis charge you, and I hopo your relatives will take some steps for your supervision. Prisoner— I am very sorry to hare given so much trouble. I cannot think whatever made me make such an absurd statement. The prisoner then left the dock. The crowd collected in Bow-street by the occur rence was immense. Railway and other Companies. DEESIDE. The report of the directors states that £17,397 had been received for traffic during the year ending August 31 last on the Deeside line, and on the Ex tension lino £6,994, making together £24.392. The debenture interest and guarantee dividends for the year amounted to £14,917, leaving a surplus for rents, taxes, and working expenses to Great North of Scotland Railway Company of £9,474. The revenue of the year was very prejudicially affected by the severe snowstorms which prevailed during the winter months, about £l,OOO of traffic having been lost from that cause. The opening of the line to Ballater had been of great advantage to the traffic. The lease of the lino to the Great North of Scotland Railway came into operation on Sept. 1 last. The gross revenue had been regularly con signed to the revenues of the joint committees, who had retained in hand, in terms of the agreement, a sum sufficient for fully securing the payment of in terests and of the guaranteed dividends, and the ac counts now showed a balance of £9,474 of revenue after deducting all these charges. The guaranteed dividends would be paid on the lst Nov. next. The debentures falling duo had all been renewed at the rate of 4 per cent. per annum for five years. ATLANTIC AND GREAT WESTERN. The traffic receipts on this company's old lines for the fourth week in September were $124,211, and for the corresponding week last year $120,160, showing as increase of $4,051. C APE.

SINGAPORE GAS (LIMITED). The report of the directors states that the profits for the half-year, ending 30th of June last, were £847, which, together with £5l, the balance from the preceding half-year, made the available balance £BOB. Out of this sum the directors recommended the declaration of a dividend at the rate of 74 per cent. per annum, leas income-tax, on the preference capital, and a dividend at the rate of 3 per cent. per annum on the amounts paid up on the original capital, free of income-tax, leaving a balance of £4 to be carried forward. The balance-sheet showed that the capital raised was £44,850 in shares, and ,c 2.1,700 on debentures. The manager, Mr. Wells, stated in his report that a cargo of coals, from Sydney, had been obtained at moderate cost, and that the return was 9,000 cubic feet of gas per ton, and of good quality, producing also first-rate coke.
