MONEY MARKET AND COMMBRCIAL INTELLICIENCE, TIVELYE O'CLOCK. To-day thorn h a s bee n a s carc ity o f commerc i a l bills for negotiation, and the Discount Market closes very languidly. Money is as abundant as ever, and it may be hoped that remunerative chan nels may be opened for its employment. The Telegraph to India Company have issued their report for the: past half-year, which recom mended the payment of a dividend at the rate of 5 per cent. free of income-tax. The traffic receipts of the Ottoman Railway Company for the week ending Gth January amounted to £1,063 against £853 in the previous year, and for the week ending 13th January £943 against £679 in the corresponding week in 1866. The East India Railway Company's traffic re ceipts for the week ending Dec. 16th last upon 1,1291 miles open were £43,376 ; in the correspond mg period in the previous year upon 1,129 miles open they were £37,765. During the past week the movements of the precious metals have been on a rather limited scale. The imports, which have only amounted to about £83,218, have included £6,000 from New York by the City of New York; £1,500 by the City of Cork ; and £37,000 by the Bremen. The George Thompson, from Australia, has brought £19,500 ; the Tanjore, from Alexandria, £2,294 ; and £16,924 in gold has been received from Portugal. The ex ports have been £3,400 to Bombay, by the Poonah ; £73,600 in gold has been sent to the Brazils ; £15,000 in silver to Jamaica; and there have been remittances to the Continent through private source,s, estimated at £189,986, the whole amount ing to £281,986. The sum of £9,000 in sovereigns was taken from the Bank of England yesterday for Brazils. Notice has been given that the half-yearly general meeting of the Credit Foncier of England will be held on Monday, the 18th inst., at Exeter Hall, Strand. The Stock Exchange Committee to-day ordered the scrip and paid-up scrip of the Chilian Six per Cent. Sterling Government Loan to be quotod in the official list. There is very little animation exhibited in the silk market just at the present time, partly owing to large arrivals. Japan descriptions have been particularly depressed, and in the absence of busi ness Bengal qualities are at almost nominal quota tions. The next public sales are appointed to com mence on the 20th inst. The traffic receipts on the Scinde Railway in the Week ending December 9th, the last for which re turns have been received, amounted to £3,137, being £9l in excess of the highest amount realised in any previous week since the opening of the line. It is believed that when the returns for 1866 are completed they will show an improvement in the receipts as compared with those of the previous year of upwards of 15 per cent. Foreign Stocks have in some instances been a shade firmer, particularly Mexican, which have ad vanced 1, to 181. Greek Bonds have also risen 1, to 14 144 ; Spanish Certificates 1, to 15 151; and the Russian Loan Scrip 1, to 21 21 prem. ; while the Italian Loan of 1861 have declined 1, to 54/ ; and Turkish 5 per Cents. 1, to 31 1.

In the Railway Share Market there has been a fair amount of business entered into, and prices generally have shown more firmness.

IN RE OVEREND AND GURNEY-OAKES AND PEACH. Vice-Chancellor Sir Richard Malins this morning de livered judgment in the cases of Messrs. Oakes and Peach, which is of immense importance to all who aro connected either as shareholders or creditors with the limited liability company of Overend and Gurney. Messrs. Oakes and Peach were shareholders in the fi►m, and (representing an association of shareholders) claimed to have their names removed from the list of contributories on the ground that they had been induced to become shareholders by fraud, and that the transactions were void by reason of such fraud. Vice-Chancellor Malins strongly censured the con duct of the directors, who induced persons to take shares knowing the company to be insolvent, but said that, look ing to all the circumstances, he could not remove the ap plicants from the list of contributories until all the debts of the company were paid. With regard to costs, he must re mark that the case of the creditors was equally hard with that of the shareholders, and if he relieved Messrs. Oakes and Peach from the costs, they must come out of the fund from which the creditors would be paid. He must, there fore, dismiss the motion with costs. It is understood that there will be an appeal to the Lords Justices. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. RIDDING SOCIETY OF A DANGEROUS CHARACTER.— George Barnett, described as a bootcloser, and refusing his address, was charged before Mr. Knox on a warrant with assaulting Eliza Ann Godsell. The complainant, a well-dressed young woman, was an unfortunate, residing in Crescent-street, Hampstead-road, said that on the Mb August last the prisoner came up to her in Regent-street and struck her in the face, stating that he would have her life if she did not live with him. She took out a summons against him at that court, but he did not appear to it, and a warrant was granted against him. A day or two ago the - prisoner mot her and threat ened to kill her if she did not live with him. In answer to Mr. Sayer, from the office of Mr. Lewis, Great Marlborough-street, the complainant said she had lived with the prisoner as his wife, and had had two children by him. She did not live with a man named John Hart. Police-constablo Faulkner, 340 A, proved seeing the prisoner annoying the complainant in Regent-street, and last night he took him into custody. The complainant told him (Faulkner) that sho had kept tho prisoner on her prostitution. - Police-constable Allwood, 186 C, said the prisoner was once sent from that court for three months' with another man for loitering about window; and' threatening gentle- men. The prisoner said he could prove the complainant lived with Hart, who was the other man alluded to by 186 O. Mr. Knox said that whatever the woman might be she was entitled to protection. The prisoner was a dangerous person, and he should commit him for two months for the assault, and order him to find two sureties in £5O each, for six months, for threatening the complainant on a subse quent occasion. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET. (This Day.) The market opens with a steady tone. Sales probably 10,000 or 12,000 bales. Metropolitan Board of Works. The usual weekly meeting of the members of this Board was held yesterday at their offices in Spring gardens, Sir John Thwaite3 in the chair. FINANCE. The cash statement showed the total cash balance in the hands of the treasurer up to the 4th inst. to be £589,251 4s. 2d. Cheques not presented, £97,848 ss. lld. ; and Mortgage Debt Sinking Fund, £17,926 10s. 3d. New Three per Cent. An nuities. ISLINGTON IMPROVEMENTS. A recommendation from the Finance Committee was agreed to that the a2plication of the Islington Vestry for permission to borrow the sum of £35,000 for the purpose of paving works in the parish be granted, the principal to be zepaid by equal annual instalments within a period of twelve years, and the rate of interest not to exceed 5 per cent. per annum. THE FIRE BRIGADE. A report was brought up from the Fire Brigade Committee recommending that the tender of Messrs. J. and A. Blyth for the construction, &c., of the engines and machinery of the new vessel in course of construction by Mr. Samuda, for the protection from fire of waterside property, for the sum of £3,250 be accepted, and that the offer of Messrs. Easton and Amos to sell their floating steam fire engine, with a new wrought iron hull and propelling machinery, for the sum of £1,860 be accepted. IMPORTANT DECISION AS TO THE LIABILITY OF PUBLIC BODIES IN CASES OF ACCIDENT. The Solicitor (Mr. Smith) drew the attention of the Board to the case " Juniper v. the Bermondsey Vestry." He said that this decision, in cases of liability for injury to life or limb, was so opposed to all principles hitherto adopted that he had to ask the Board to give him power to obtain a full report of the case without going further into the facts or the reasons that induced him to ask for such powers. It was a matter of the greatest importance, and he asked the Board to trust him to do his best without going into any further explanation of the matter. Mr. Phillips moved that the solicitor have the powers requested. The motion was put and agreed to, and the Board then adjourned. M. EUGENE RlMMEL—whose very name smells sweetly in the nostrils of the public—surpasses himself this season with his exquisite Valentines! Opening one— a delicate oblong—you find a pair of gloves—suggestive, of course, of the sender's wish for a fair hand to put in side ! Opening another you see, through a fairy lattice work of filagree, a representation of True Love as symbolised by the carnation flower. Opening another you have love very deep indeed—hinted by . shells gathered from the deep! Another, yet, comprises in one charming little souvenir a fragment pouch adorned by a cupid, and commemorative of Shakspere as one of the arch-poet's of that same poet-Archer—Dan Cupid.

BOW-STREET-THIS DAY. SURRENDER AND EXAMINATION OF GENERAL NELSON. This morning, shortly before 12 o'clock, Colonel Nelson, late Brigadier-General of the Field Force at the island of Jamaica, surrendered on the charge preferred against him and others of the wilful mur der of George William Gordon. General Nelson was accompanied by Lord de Blaquiere, Colonel Wright, and several other friends. On Sir Thomas Henry taking his seat the General quitted his friends and walked into the felon's dock. Mr. Shaen (who appeared for the prosecution) said-1 presume, Sir Thomas, you intend to make to Colonel Nelson the same statement that you made to Lieut. Brand yesterday ? Sir Thomas Henry —Just so. General Nelson have you any professional adviser present ? General Nelson--I have not. Sir Thomas Heury—You are probably aware of the charge on which you are brought here. Have you seen the warrant, or has it been read to you? Gen. Nelson—l have seen nothing but what has appeared in the common newspapers. I have not been brought here. I come in consequence of what I have read. Mr. Burnaby (chief clerk) explained to the chief magistrate that the warrant against Gen. Nelson bad never been actually issued, he (Mr. B.) having withheld it in consequence of a communication he had received from Messrs. Shaen and Roscoe—the warrant in fact had never been placed in the hands of the officer of the Court. General Nelson attended this morning of his own free will. Mr. Shaen—Colonel Nelson's friends commu nicated to inc that he intended to surrender this morning, and I •therefore took upon myself not to have the warrant served, but to keep it back. Sir Thomas Henry—General Nelson, the charge against you, I may as well state it in language as free from technicalities as possible, is, that you were concerned in causing the death of George William Gordon by having approved of the sentence of death passed on him by the court-martial presided over by Lieut. Brand, which sentence it was alleged by the prosecution was illegal. That is the charge against you, and on the present occasion all that will be done is that sufficient portions of the depositions will be read over to-day to justify me in remanding you until Tuesday next, when the case will be gone fully into. Mr. Shaen—l presume, Sir Thomas, it will be quite sufficient to read over the same portions of the despositions as were read yesterday when Lieut. Brand was before you, viz., the evidence of Dr. Fiddes and Mr. Lewis. Sir Thomas Henry—Yes, certainly. Mr. Shaen--With respect to the question of bail, I informed Colonel Wright, who is a friend of Colonel Nelson's, that I anticipated that you, sir, would ask him to enter into his own recognisances for £l,OOO, and that two sureties would be required of £5OO each, although a lower sum was taken in the case of Lieutenant Brand yesterday. Sir T. Henry—There is no reason that I see why any difference should be made. You were hardly justified in saying that I should require more in the one case than the other. Mr. Shaen—lt was before that—before you fixed the amount. However, I understand that Colonel Nelson has come provided with bail to the amount I mentioned. Sir T. Henry—You need not, Mr. Shaen, go into that. The depositions of Pr. Fiddes and Mr. Lewis were here read by Mr. Burnaby. Sir Thomas Henry—That, General Nelson, is all the evidence that will be taken to- day, and 1 think it will be better for you to refrain from saying any thing on the present occasion. On Tuesday there will be a full opportunity for your legal adviser to make any statement or observations which you, or those who advise you, think desirable. I under stand that your bail are in attendance ? General Nelson.—Yes ; I would desire before leaving this Court to say a few words to remove the impression that I have been hiding in London. Sir T. Henry—No, there has been no such im pression. General Nelson —lt has gone abroad and is talked of all over the town ; and as the newspapers go all over the world, I wish them to give publicity to the fact which I have now stated. Mr. Shaen—So far from that I say and I think Col. Nelson did not hear what I stated, that it was in consequence of my conviction that he was not hiding, but that he would willingly attend the court that I took upon myself to have the warrants with held, so that he should not suffer the indignity of being taken into custody. General Nolson--Mr. Shaen knew perfectly well that I was residing at Leamington, because he served me with notices connected with these pro ceedings there. Mr. Shaen—Certainly, and I felt quite sure you would attend at this court when you were required. Sir Thomas Henry —I s h a ll requ i re y ou , General Nelson, to enter into th e same b a il as I required yesterday, viz., your own recognizances for £5OO, and two sureties of £2OO each for your appearance on Tuesday next. Lord de Blaquiere of Stratford-place, and Col. Edward William Carlisle Wright, of 25, IVimpole street, offered themselves as bail, and were at once a ccepted. Mr. Shaen —I have now, Sir Thomas, to ask for a summons against the Secretary of State for the Colonies to produce certain documents that were in the possession of Mr. Roundell, who was here the other day, and he informs me that on reconsidera tion he had felt it to be his duty to hand over to the Government all the papers which were not put in evidence on the first occasion, and be bas placed them in the hands of the Secretary of State for the Colonies. Sir T. Henry—nave you applied for them? Mr. Shaen take it for granted the Secretary of State would wish to have a summons. Sir T. Henry—l don't know that. You had better make application for the papers before you take out the summons. Mr. Shaen—Very well, sir ; I will. I now wish to make a statement in correction of some mistake Mr. Stephens has made in reference to a communi cation respecting Governor Eyre. Sir T. Henry—The less we have of such state ments before Tuesday net the better. The parties then quitted the court. MARKETS.—This day. COVENT GARDEN.
