~*" MONEY MARK 27' .^ ND CU' NE WAt3. CITY, Two o'CLocK. The Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets during the last few days have been moderately ac tive, and for most of the principal staples prices have been well sustained. Tea fully supported at previous quotations. unbars have slightly ad vanced, while coffee, rice, and spices have been in fair request at full rates. Saltpetre, however, has been dull. Tallow has been in more request and prices firm. About £31,000 in *gold was sent into the Bank of England yesterday. The Armenian has arrived from the West Indies with £13,600 in gold. i Notice has been. given by the Spanish Financial Commission that the auction of the Foreign Re deemable Debt will take place at Madrid on the 28th, for which purpose the Government have assigned 3,495,872 reales. In the Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday a fair amount of business was transacted, and prices were unaltered. The sales were 10,000 bales. The Stock Exchange has been thrown into a state of excitement to-day, in consequence of the failure of several members who were unable to meet their engagements. At an early hour it transpired that a member had suspended, and immediately after -wards another and rather important dealer was " declared," which from the extensive nature of his transactions created great astonishment ; a species of panic then ensued, and no less than six additional failures took place. So many embar rassments have not occurred for a considerable period, and the market for English Funds has, consequently, been in a very agitated state. No reliable estimate can yet be formed with regard to the total liabilities of the re• spective defaulters, nor can any intelligence be obtained respecting the dividend each estate is likely to produce. The misfortune is, of course, attributable to the recent advance in prices, the parties in question having operated in expectation of a contrary movement, although it might have been supposed that the advance which has taken place would result as a natural consequence of the improvement in monetary affairs, and the satisfac tory cempletion of the harvest. The English Stock Market opened with a quiet appearance, Consols being about 932, 1 for money, and 93/ for account. For some time business was suspended, but prices are now at a farther advance, viz., about 93/ I, and 93-1, 91 respectively. The New Threes have advanced to 911 92 ; the Reduced are firm, at 911 a ; India Stock has risen to 222 ; ditto New Loan Scrip is steady, at 1034 104 ; Exchequer Bills, March, are 2s. dis. ; ditto, June, Bs. prem. The only feature of importance in the Foreign market has been the rise in Mexican stock—viz., to 221 ; Turkish 6 per Cents. are 821 1; ditto, 1858, 681 Equador are firm, at 15Z, but Spanish Deferred have receded to 41k, and Sardinian to 791- ; Russian 41 per Cents. remain at 901. Business in the Railway Share Market has con tinued moderately active, but a slight downward movement has taken place in values. Lancashire and Yorkshire have 'receded ss. ; North Western and South Western, 10s.; and Brighton, Midland, and South Eastern, £l. Bristol and Exeter, Great Northern, Edinburgh, Perth, and Dundee, and Norfolk have improved ss. The Foreign and Colonial lines have been dull, and without material change in values. Great Western of Canada receded about ss. ; and East Indian and Great Indian Peninsula improved ss. Joint Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares are at steady rates. London Joint Stock realise 351 Z ; Oriental Bank, 501; Union of London, 27 to 271; and Royal Mail Steam, 501. BRITISH FUNDS—ONE O'CLOCK. 3 per Cent. Reduced Annuities 9li i -3 per Cent.

The steamer Armenian, with the West Coast of Africa mail, has arrived here. She brings 34 pas sengers, and 3,400 ounces of gold dust. Her dates are—Benin, August 7 ; Fernando Po and Cameroons, August 1 ; Old Calabar, July 30 ; Brass River, Aug. 6 ; Nun, July 24 ; Bonny, 6 ; Lagos, Aug. 10; Acra, 12 ; Cape Coast Castle, 14; Cape Palmas, 16 ; Sierra Leone, 21 ; Bathurst, 25 ; Teneriffe, 31 ; and Madeira, September 2. The territory of Lagos was ceded to the British Crown on the sth of August, the King signing a treaty to that effect. A commercial treaty, favourable to British and French interests, had been negotiated with the King of Bodaboo. Fever was prevalent at Bathurst. Trade on the Gold Coast was rather dull. The Armenian took the Lagos bar, and the greater part of the cargo had to be thrown over board to get her off. Her Majesty's ship Prome theus also took the bar, but got off much strained. A private letter from Grasse states that the crop of olives in that country is seriously injured by the long continued dry weather. The fruit, completely shrivelled, is falling from the bees. The vintage presents itself under more favourable appearances. The vine disease had not made its appearance, and a more abundant vintage is ex pected this year than last. NEW CHANCERY VACATION ORDERS.—The fol lowing orders have just been issued with reference to ap plications for injunctions, &c., during the vacation :—" All applications to the Court of Chancery, which are of an urgent nature, must be made at the chambers of Vice- Chancellor Sir William Page Wood. All applications ex parte are to be sent to the Vice-Chancellor Wood by post, accompanied with the brief of counsel, endorsed with the terms of the order applied for, and an envelope, capable of r eceiving - the papers to be returned, with sufficient stamps a ffixed thereon, a n d a dd resse d as f o ll ows :—" T o th e Regis laLol:adirionvacation, Chancery Regist rar - o ffice, Chancery-lane, On appli ca ti on f or i n j unc ti ons or wr it s o f as exeat re ." copy of the b't.here must be sent in addition to the above a ll a certificate of bill filed, and office copies of the affidavits in support of the application. The papers sent to the Vice-Ch ancellor with any order his Honour may make thereon will be returned direct to the Registrar. The address of the Vice. Chancellor Sir William Page Wood will be Lincoln' s ob -inntained at hi s H onour's chambers, 11, New. square, The Agricultural Society of France for the En couragement of the Breeding o f Bees, held a meeting last week at the TslodeL,Beebive at the Luxembourg. About 100 a griculturists att ende d from vari ous rance. The exhibition of bees, which was held in the Orangery, was very interesting . The p rodu ce exhibit e d called forth expressions of admiration from the spectators. It showed in how much progress has been made wit hin a few years one of the most lucrative industries of rural life. Several very important practical questions were discussed at the meetin g . Th e cou ntry clergy ware represented at the con gress by five parish priets. One farmer i n Champagne, instructed i n thi s ar t by his parish p riest, p oss esses at pr e _ sent 1,000 b ee hi ves . The efforts of the societ y have been attended with the best results. A superior degree of cora_ fort has by its means been introduced into districts where it was hitherto unknown, The rearing of bees entails no additional house rent. It requires but a,small capital and but little labour. It is evident that much remains to be done when we consider that, while France produces 7 0 ,000,000 f. worth of honey and wax, she expends 60 ,000,000 f. in additional purchases. The Agricultural Society are of opinima that France might produce 200,000,000 f. worth of honey and wax, and then export 70,000,000 f. worth. -----______ SBARE MA_RKET.-(TIIIS D,Y).

The adjourned investigation into the circumstances at tending the death of the unfortunate woman Cogan was resumed this afternoon, at the Archer public-house, New ton-street. It will be recollected, when the inquiry was first opened, that Cogan, wbo stands charged with the murder of his wife, was in such a dangerous state, from the wounds in flicted on his neck, that he was obliged to be conveyed to the hospital, where he has remained, under the care of the police, until to-day. _ Cogan arrrived from King's College Hospital a few minutes before two o'clock in custody of Inspector Mac kenzie, of the F division of police, and immediately had an audience with his solicitor, Mr. G. Lewis, of Ely-place. The Coroner said as Cogan was now present he proposed that the evidence taken in his absence should be read over, in order that he might make any statement he thought proper. We shall continue the report in our late edition. LAW INTELLIGENCE.—rThis Day.) COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. Mr. Commissioner Holroyd was the commissioner of the day, and there was a long list of cases, many of which were audit and dividend meetings, to clear up as far as possible the cases outstanding in this court under the present bank ruptcy law. ►SD ' NI ,LEG . • IN , ; 0 R 11' IMPORTANT QUESTION-IN RE PRESTON. This bankrupt was described as of Kingsland, to bacconist, and he now came up for his certificate. Mr. Pook, of Basinghall-street, appeared for the bank rupt ; and Mr. Beard, of the same place, as a creditor, and also as solicitor for other creditors ; Mr. Apps for the as signees; and neither of them opposed. Mr. Pook addressed the Court, and submitted that although the bankrupt was in prison on the action of one creditor, the fact that neither the assignees nor any of the other creditors (the assignees being themselves creditors) did not oppose, the bankrupt was justified in asking for an immediate certificate. His Honour said that, under the circumstances, he would grant an immediate certificate of the third class. Mr. Pook then applied for the discharge of the bankrupt from custody on two grounds; Arst, that the detaining creditor had not proved his debt, and, secondly, that the bankrupt was released by his certificate. Mr. Bagley contended that the certificate did not operate until the day after it had been gazetted. The case stood over for consideration. IN RE COX. This bankt upt, a tailor at Pimlico, obtained a certificate of the 2d class, Mr. Pook for the assignees not opposing. IN RE MUNDY. This bankrupt was described as a cook and confectioner of Westbourne Grove, Bayswater, and now surrendered under a petition presented by Mr. W. R. Buchanan, Basinghall-street. The amount of the debts 'and assets have not yet been ascertained. IN RE SLEEP. This bankrupt was described of the " Abbey Arms," Abbey Wood, and surrendered under his bankruptcy. Mr. Buchanan is the solicitor to the petition. POLICE EVTEL L IGEN CE.--( 77iis Day.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. OUTRAGEOUS CONDUCT OF FOREIGNERS.—AdoIoph Koning, 59, Margaret-street, Cavendish-square, commis sion agent, was charged with assaulting Auguste Lasselin; and Adolph Carre, of the same address as the first named, Joseph Daniels, of 11, William-street, Portland-road, jeweller, and Charles Boisseau were charged with assault ing Shillingford, one of the warrant officers. Mr. Edward Lewis, of Great Marlborough-street, ap peared for the prosecution, and said that M. Lasselin was talking to a female, when Koning came up and attacked him in an unprovoked manner, and on Shillingford going to execute the warrant he was badly assaulted. Mr. Albert interpreted the evidence. M. Auguste Lasselin, a musician, said—l know Koliing. On Saturday night last I was in Langham-place, and two gentlemen were with me. I stopped to speak to a female, and was walking down Regent-street with her, when I received a blow on my face from behind, which caused me to fall like a bullock, I lost my senses, and do not know what happened. On recovering I saw Koning running away, but did not see the person who struck the blow. I had said nothing to Koning. A gentleman - who was with M. Lasselin at the time, saw Koning spring on M.

(Michaelmas Day this year falling on a Sunday) there will be an election of a Lord Mayor of London in suc cession to the Right Hon. William Cubitt, who at present holds that office. Ordiaarily the two aldermen who stand next in rotation to be Lo rd Mayor by date of election are presented by the livery to the Court of Aldermen, who gene - d e r ln n a t n h e Sir event Henry of trallyg course g t eh,e beingwshe i w o n r da se t p o e t r l ee de t t h et ehd this n i a year,lyso 5 r t Aa y nl . d Alderman W.

The other aldermen who are "below the chair," and who, having served the office of Sheriff, are eligible, are Mr. W. Law rence, Mr. W. S. Hale, Mr. H. S. Phillips, Mr. I. Gabriel, Mr. J. J.

As the Lord Mayor for 1861-62 will in all probability be created a baronet at the opening of the international exhi bition, it is rumoured that there will be some departure from the usual course of election on the 28th inst., and that the present Lord Mayor (Alderman Cubitt), will be put in no mination for the election. In the event of the livery re turning him in conjunction with any other alderman, it is generally understood that the Court of Aldermen will select him for another year of office. DESTRUCTIVE FIRE AT MILE-END.—Yesterday morning, between twelve and one o'clock, a destructive fire broke out on the premises of Mr. J. Russell, tobacconist, 29, Globe-road, Mile -end. Notwithstanding the exertions of the firemen, who promptly attended, the premises were destroyed. The cause of the fire is at present unknown. The loss will fall on the Phconix-oiace.

THE RAILWAY ACCIDENT AT KEN- The inquiry was resumed this morning before Mr. Hum phreys, the name of the unfortunate man Benjamin Rush brooke being now classed amongst those whO met their death on this occasion. The first witness called was Mr. William Buck, of 19, Church-terrace, Kentish-town, clerk in the railway clearing-house, who said—On the 2d of September, I was within 200 yards of the place where the accident took place. I saw the collision. The first in- timation of it was while I was standing in my garden; the side the carriages came over. The whistling first attracted my attention, a friend of mine remarking "That's the danger whistle." I then ran down the garden, put my hand on the shoulder of Mr. Garrett, who said, " Good God, the engine's gone off the line." I saw one of the carriages go over. I did not see the signals at that time. I noticed them an hour after then, they stood at " danger." A friend of mine informed me that the signal at the Kentish-town platform stood at "all right." There was not more than eight seconds between the whistle and the collision. A Juror—How can you be so exact to the time Witness—By the time it took to walk from where I was standing to where I saw the accident. The Coroner said the signalman Rayner was now in at • tendance, but he proposed to take all the evidence he could previous to examining him. For that reason he should take the evidence of the guard Bridges, and Scott the driver. The jury then proceeded to the University Hospital to take the evidence of Bridges, and to view the body of Rushbrooke. After this had been done the jury proceeded to Bow, and there took the evidence of Scott. The following appeared in a portion of our impression of yesterday evening : The inquiry was resumed this motning before Mr. Humphrey. Mr. Parke said:a lady was on the Kentish-town platform when the signals were up, and as the man was unable to find her, he hoped the press would mention the fact, as she might then come forward. The Coroner said he did not intend to go to the Univer sity Hospital to view the body of the unfortunate person, Rushbrooke, who had died since they last met, as it would be uncertain whether they would not have to go again to- morrow. Therefore he should proceed with the examina- tion of witnesses in the cases they had already opened. He might also state that he had received intelligence that a man, woman, and child had been seen to get into the excur sion train at Kew, who have not since been heard of. If such a statement was made public it might lead to the clearing up of the circumstance. Mr. Metcalfe said there appeared to be some sort of im pression about that some juggle was to be attempted in order to avoid the responsibility of the line. He was there .. _ on the part of the North-Western, the North London, and the North and South Western Junction, and there would be no attempt on the part of those companies to avoid any The following evidence was then taken : Mr. Charles Fleke, gentleman— I live in Acacia-road. I was a passenger in the train from the Hampstead-road to Kentish-town on the evening of the accident by the or-• dinary train. I arrived at the Kentish-town station about four minutes past 7. I did not remain on the platform. There appeared a great desire to get the passengers out of the station at that time, in order to allow it to go on, so much so, that he had great difficulty in getting a lady out without accident. The train was not indecently crowded. After arriving at the station I went down stairs, and when in Gordon House-lane I heard a single scream from an engine which came down to the coal sta tion, and I saw it attached closely to about 20 trucks. I was so struck at what was going on at the coal station as to mention the circumstance to some friends that were with me. I said, " This is an act of madness." A Juror—But the engine was on the siding. Witness—Yes. When I got to the end of Gordon House-lane, I hepd that the accident I had anticipated had occurred. Coroner—Did you notice the signals ? Mr. Parke (solicitor for the signal-man at Kentish-town) —May I ask if you are in any way engaged in the theatri cal profession, as your imagination appears so fertile ? Witness—No; and I consider your question very im- pertinent. . The Rev. Mr. Allen, of St. Thomas's Church, Islington, said—l was a passenger in the excursion train, with an or dinary ticket. I came from Kew. I noticed two or three violent jerks both going and coming, but I thought that might be from crossing the points. I did not see the sig nals at Kentish-town. We came through the tunnel at Finchley-road at very great speed. I shortly after felt a violent wrench, some crashes, and then the fourth carriage, in which I was, I found was suspended over the brickwork. With the aid of a young friend I climbed up to the window, but could see nothing for some time for the steam that was escaping. The Coroner—Can you tell us anything as to how the accident occurred ? Witness —No. I did not think my evidence would be of any importance, but I thought it my duty to attend and state what I knew. By a Juror did not hear the train whistle. By Mr. Lewis—l did not notice the signals. Mr. George Morse—l am station master at Kew. The ordinary train left at the usual time, 6.35. I started the excursion train just at the stroke of 7. It consisted of the engine and 12 carriages. Scott was the driver, Bolton fire man, and Bridges the guard. My instructions as to the excursion trains were sent to me in writing. I produce them. They stated, on the 2d of September special trains would leave Camden-town at uncertain times, but that the first might be expected to start about 9 o'clock a.m., to return from Kew about 8 p.m.' to 9;30. I started the train from Kew at seven o'clock on account of the pressure of persons arriv- ing at the station. There were three excursion parties that day. When I started the train in question I think I told the guard I was starting it earlier than my instructions, but I could not swear that. The Coroner—Did you telegraph to any of the up lines Witness—l have no telegraph. The Coroner—Did you communicate with the up lines Examination continu ed—l knew I was perfectly safe as far as Willesden, but I know nothing of the line higher up. I have been in the employ of the company about eleven years. \ I have been four years at Kew. The next train I started was at 7.40. The next excursion train was started between 10.30 and 10.45. For that train a guard had brought down an engine and a number of empty carriages, and from him I heard of the accident. I did not take any means for securing the excursion train beyond the belief that I told the guard I was starting him earlier then the instructions. By the Coroner—ls it usual for you to start trains con. rary to your instructions ? __ Witness—That depends entirely on circumstances. The influx of the passengers on Sunday is very great, so I have to make arrangements to meat such emergencies. By Mr. Parke—l did not examine the break van before the train started. I don't think it would have taken more than three or four minutes to set down the passengers at Edgeware. I don't know what the ordinary speed of an ordinary train is, but I should think it is about 30 miles an hour. If the excursion train got from Kew to where the accident occurred in seven minutes, it would be very extra ordinary speed to travel. As a general rule Ido not place tailboards on special trains, but it was uncertain when I should have to start them. I did not notice whether the guard had persons in the break. Sometimes passengers are placed in the break. The guard might have had six or nine persons in the van, but he could not conveniently carry more. I have no telegraph at my station yet. I start trains at irregular times. _ _ By Mr. Lewis—l cleared out of my station by the 6.35 train. I then had no intention of starting the excursion at 7. I do not give instructions as to the rate he is to travel, that is left to his discretion. A Juror—Did you see the guard when he left Kew ? Witness—l did. Juror—Was he sober ? Witness--Quite sober. By the Coroner—The first station the excursion would pass after leaving Kew would be Acton, next the Edgware road. Our line ends at the Willesden Junction. That is before you come to Edgware. I not only sent the train over our line without notice, but I sent it as far the Edgware-road, subject only to its being stopped at that station. There are signals at Willesden. By Mr. Metcalfe—lt, is a set signal, one always set at danger. The guard has always to whistle it off before he is allowed to pass. Edward Puckil—l am porter at Euston-station. On the 2d Sept. I was at the Hampstead station. The ordinary train from Kew (6.35) passed at a few minutes before seven. The excursion train, I think, came ti e about a quarter-past seven. I was on my road to light up the auxiliary up-signal lamp. She passed me as I was going up the bank. I had got very close to the signal post. She was going very fast—about 40 miles an hour. It was the first evening I had been on duty at that station, so I did not notice how the Signals stood. I ha 1 a lamp in my hand. It was not a signal lamp. I did not turn it facing the train. Of that I am certain. I lit the auxiliary signal lamp between Hampstead and Kentish Town, and then returned. I left the white light turned towards Hampstead. I did not notice what colour was to wards Kentish Town. I did not notice whether the danger arm was up. She did not whistle as she passed me. I did not notice whether the steam was off. I had nothing to do with the telegraph. By Mr. Parke—The night was not dark enough to allow my lamp to be taken for a signal lamp. By Mr. Lewis—l lit the lamp when Whiteman ordered. The train had passed when I had done so. I did not know anything about the excursion train arriving. I saw White man work the signal about an hour before the accident, but I don't know that I saw him do so after Wards. Juror—You say the train was going at 40 miles an hour. How do you judge the rate of speed ? Witness—l've drove horses. (Laughter.) Joseph Reid, in the employ of the North London Rail way Company —I am signalman at the points at the Kentish Town Junction. Our junction is between Kentish-town, and the Camden-town, station, X WU en duty on the 2d of September in the evening. The ordinary. 6.35 train from Kew passed me about 6 minutes past seven. She was three minutes late. She was telegraphed. I received the notice, and repeated the message, " Line clear" to Kentish town after she ha I passed. I received a telegram relative to the excursion train from Willesden. I did not notice the time. If is not my duty to book the times I receive tele grams. I repeated the message. I received the telegram relative to the special about a minute before the ordinary train passed. I got no telegram with three ticks which would have informed me about the ballast train being on the line up to half-past 7 o'clock. I did not receive any telegram from Kentish .town announcing the line "blocked" before the accident. By Mr. Lewis—l was not aware that a ballast train was working between my station and Kentish-town. I have to work the signals as well as attend to the electric instru ments. Immediately the ordinary train passed I put up the danger signal. I had been informed that excursion trains were to run that day. I did not know at what hour they might be expected. I was not surprised at receiving a message announcing the arrival of an excursion train an hour before I had been led to expect it would become due. Mr. Alfred Martin Scott, of 31, Oak Village, Kentish town, clerk at the Camden Goods Station—My house com- mands a full view of the scene of the accident. On the 2d of September I was in my garden between a quarter and 20 minutes past seven. I saw the excursion train coming from Kentish-town. I noticed it was going very fast. I then heard the whistle of the train, which I knew meant danger. It seemed to me as if the men working the train had hold of the whistle, to keep it open. It gave three distinct volleys. I then noticed dur ing one of the volleys of whistling that the wheels of the train had the break applied. The train appeared to go on for a short time just as fast, but afterwards the speed dimi nished perceptibly. It seemed to me as if it would stop altogether before it reached the bridge. The steam was off when I saw it. I then saw the engine of the excursion train strike the ballast train. I then heard a rumbling noise, and steam, sparks, and flame arose, and the engine disappeared, and a short time after I heard a crash, some thing like what a man might make by sitting on a hat-box, which I suppose was the smashing of the carriages. I did not hear the whistle sounded from the ballast train. Coroner—Do you know how the signals at Kentish-town stood at the time of the accident ? Witness—No, Ido not ? I know that the auxiliary sig nal went up at seven o'clock, as I saw a train pass, and then the arm started out. I cannot say how the signals stood after the accident. I don't recollect whether the lamp was lighted on the signal post on which I saw the danger arm extended. I don't think that the train was travelling at an extraordinary speed. I don't think it was going at much more than 30 miles an hour. I think if the train had to go 50 yards further it would have come to a standstill. Thomas Simpson—l am a labourer in the employ of Mr. Walters, a contractor. I was engaged burning ballast in a field at the back of Carlton-road on tho evening of the accident. I had been in that field about 20 minutes when I saw the ballast engine come up from Camden-town. I saw it go into the siding and fetch the ballast waggons. I was on the side the trucks came over. I saw the engine shunting them on the line, and while doing so I heard the whistle of a train, and I saw one coming through the Kentish-town station at full speed and run into the ballast train. I heard the whistle frem the ballast train. I saw the collision. I did not hear the excursion whistle until the steam was knocked off. It was about 60 yards off the trucks when that was done. I don't know whether the break was on. I did not see how the signal stood. The excursion train was going at the rate of 30 or 40 miles an hour. By Mr. Lewis—The ballast train had been out of the siding four or five minutes before the collision took place. I should say that I heard the excursion train about 200 yards before she made her appearance at Kentish-town. I was about 75 yards off the spot where the accident occur red. I have been asked about this affair by one of the railway gentlemen. By Mr. Metcalfe—l was not close enough to see whether there was a lamp on the ballast train. I know the ballast train whistled before she came out of the siding. I also recollect hearing the danger whistle. George Garrett—l keep the Bull and Gate public-house, Kentish-town. It is about 150 yards off the accident. On the evening the collision occurred I was in the garden. I did not notice the signals till after the accident. The ex cursion train had passed the Kentish-town station about 200 yards. She was going very fast. The steam was off, and from the rate she was running 1 don't think the breaks were on. I heard the excursion train whistle vio lently. Juror—Was that before she came into the Kentish-town station. Witness—After. I thought there was something wrong, and I took my eyes off for an instant, and I did not actually see the collision. The train was going very fast. I went over immediately after the accident. I saw the signal near the spot where the collision took place. The arm was extended denoting danger. I did notice the state of the signals before the accident occurred. George Parker, platform foreman, Camden-road station —I was on duty on the 2d September. It is my duty to book the time of the trains on or off the Hampstead Junc tion. A train leaves Kew at 6 35, and is due at our station t 7 4. She arrived at 76. She was signalled from Kentish town Junction by sounding a gong. I acknowledged the signal by two 'strokes on the gong. That signifies line clear ; three would indicate stop. I never received any inti mation from Kentish-town relative to the special or excur sion train. I produce the book in which I made the entry. The next train I booked was 12 5, that was after the acci dent. William Gristwood, station master at Kentish-town, said —I was on duty on the 2d of September when the 6 35 train from Kew passed. It was about 5 minutes past 7. S.he stopped abont half a minute or a minute. Within 10 minutes another train came up. I did not knew of her arrival. She did not stop, and as to the pace she was going I cannot say, as I did not see her. I did not hear her blow the whistle. I know nothing relating to the ballast train, as I retired down stairs as soon as the regular train quitted the station. By Mr. Parke—l know Rayner, the signalman, very well. He is a very steady man, and bears a good character. By a Juror—Only trains that stopped at the station whistled as signals. By the Coroner—l ought to receive information relative to the excursion train from the office of Mr. Chubb, the general manager. I got one of the excursion papers that has been already referred to from Mr. Chubb's office. How we know a special or excursion train is to follow an ordinary train is by that train carrying a signal tailboard. By Col. Yolland—The tailboard is mainly for the protec- tion of the platelayers. The man who works the telegraph work the signal, and acts partly as porter. The ratan em- ployed at the signals has been there about 8 months. When both the employed men at the station are on duty together, Fessey is the regular signalman. Rayner, however, had charge of the signals on Sept. 2. The men sometimes change their turns without consulting me. I cannot speak posi tively as to whether the lamps were lit or not. By Mr. Metcalfe—lt would have been the duty of the man on duty to wave a red light or red flag if a train passed disregarding the signal. By Mr. Parke—l know that Rayner is a little deaf. He had charge of the signals alone that evening. Col, Yolland—lt has been given in evidence that the ex cursion train had telegraphed to the Kentish-town junction as " Train on line." Ought that to have been done if the line was blocked ? Witness—No, sir. Col. Yolland—The danger signal ought not to have been taken off? Witness—No, sir. By Mr. Metcalfe—Rayner was not so deaf as to be unfit for duty. George Henry Fessey—l am a signalman porter at the Kentish•-town station. I went on duty at half-past 8. I to - )k alternate days with Rayner. W hen the train passed on the 2d of September it was his duty to attend to tele graphs and signals. I left tae station at the time an ordi nary evening train left. I was not at the station when the message about the ballast train was given. When I left the signals Rayner was in full charge of them. The ordi nary train carried no tail board to show that a special train was following. Up to the time I left no telegraph had been received of a special train. When I left both the main and auxiliary signals were up. No driver had a right to pass them. Rayner was a steady man, well fitted to per form his duty. He had worked with Rayner eight months, and had never known him guilty of any neglect. When I left the signals were up, and Rayner was at his post. Rayner would have to act as porter as well as signalman. By Mr. Metcalfe—No ballast engine or trucks are allowed to leave the sidings without permission. When I left that evening I told Rayner to see when the ballast train came out that all four signals were up. By a Juror—The signals were lit before I left. I lit the main, and Rayner the auxiliary. I left the station about three minutes past 7. By Colonel Yolland—When I left Kentish-town the ballast engine was on the down line. Henry Rayner, the man in charge of the signals at Ken tish-town on the evening of the collision, was then callEd, but did not answer. The Coroner said an adjournment would be necessary. He proposed to-morrow at 10 o'clock, to identify the body of Rushbrooke, and for that purpose they would have to go to the University Hospital. The driver of the excursion train, Scott, would not be able to attend before them for the next 10 days, but the railway company proposcd, as the witness was not in a state to undergo any amount of, exa mination and cross-examination, to take the jury 'co Bow, where Scott was lying, and there take his evidre,nce, as it was advisable to close the inquiry as soon as r i ossible. The proceedings were then adjourned till. ten o'clock to morrow (this) morning. ROAD ACROSS HYDE PARY;.—Wet understand that a movement is now in progress in the parish of Pad dington for procuring the lorig•desired road across the Park, bringing the districts of Hyde Park-square, Bar , " water, &c., in direct Oommunication with South icFn sington, and that it is purposed to hold a pariah rnee r to g ere long to consider the bast means of o btaiuieg it , " Cliocttea the most practical line of route. SPORTING ENTF,LLIGENCE. TATT ERSALLS'-MONDAY. The counter attraction of partridge shooting somewhat thinned the attendance of the upper ten thousand, and, in consequence, few but business men were attracted to the trysting place this afternoon. Business, however, upon the all-absorbing subject, the St. Leger, assumed a vigorous and most healthy appearance, which had the effect of removing in a measure the impression that the result was a foregone conclusion, several animals having been brought back into se sat accustom e d the m ar k e t th a t f or a ti me were cons id ere d ou t o f the race, themselves and this i n f use d new lif e i n t o th e t ran sactions ; no doubt some additional movemen t s ane nt the Leger will exhibit h Warwick, which tewrhyiachndlvill excitement.invest that Aft m er eeting with its lve some desultory conversation upon the past week's racing, busi a ess upon the St. Leger was commenced in earnest, Kettledrum appearing from the opening to the close of the room exceed - ingly firm, so much so that, after several demonstrations to send him back, his opponents appeared to favour second thoughts and readily took 7 to 4 in hundreds, at which price he would have found liberal supporters; but the " tattoo" was too strong for the "nerves" of the fielders, who retired under such a heavy fire, and the highest offer obtainable at the finish was 6to 4. Imaus also appeared extremely buoyant, ani has evidently recovered from his reported accident; a liberal commission in trusted to a shrewd and experienced operator having exhi bited itself in the city was carried out here, and in conse quence of the eagerness evinced to "get on" he speedily advanced t o the position of second favourite, as little as 8 to 1 being noted down about him at the finish. Mr. Goater's representative, Aurelian, gave unmistakable evidence of his recent trial and its satisfactory result, from the extrem e eagerness that was exhibited by those in the secret to invest, the city and the park in the morning having been visited by anxious inquirers, and at the opening of the room here a complete ovation was made to get on, at one time as little as 8 to 1 being the highest offer, but at the close a point more was offered ; but from the paucity of backers we ima gine the furor had somewhat subsided. This strong feel ing had somewhat of a prejudicial 'tendency towards Lady Ripon and Janus, who did not appear to go so well in the market, and 9 to I—quite a nominal price—met with no re sponse from the northern division about the former, while 12 to 1 went begging about the latter. Kildonan again receded in favour, his recent victory at Stockton with Ivanhoff appearing to supply his opponents with additional confidence, 14 to 1 being currently offered against him. The Sage was but slightly touched upon at 25 to 1, and The Roe at 30 to 1, while John Scott's quondam favourite, Brown Stout, receded to 33 to 1 offered, Bombardier representing the outside division at 1,000 to 10 offered. The Derby was only occasionally mentioned, the few transactions that took place being 25 to 1 agst Athlete, 2,000 to 30 each about Spite and Hopbine, and 1,000 to 10 agst Antares. ST.

Nothing very important was done on the Leamington Stakes, and, although several animals were supported, it would be difficult to select any particular horse as the favourite. Artless, after having been backed a few times at Bto 1, receded to 100 to 8 (offered). For the St. Leger, nothing under 2 to 1 was taken about Kettledrum, which price found takers for every offer. Imaus improved his position, and was freely supported at S to 1, while Brown Stout appears to have been friendless to-day, as 100 to 3, after being taken, was offered. The Roe came with some force, and up to the close we had not seen less than 30 to 1 taken, but she had every appearance of seeing a much less figure.

DIEPPE REGATTA. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) The above annual regatta took place on Sunday. The weather being fine, there was a very large concourse of spectators. The wind blew very strong from the south west, which caused the sea to be very rough. The first event for decision was a four-oared race, open t 3 all comers, which was contended for by two crews from Hastings, one from Brighton, six from various places of the coast of France, and Bain's well-known Lambeth crew. The odds at starting was 5 to 1 on the London boat against the field. When the respective crews showed at the post, the fine con dition and style of rowing of the Londoners excited univer sal admiration. A. beautiful start was effected, but they had not got 200 yards, when the Londoners began to shoot ahead, and kept their advantage to the end, winning easily by nearly a quarter of a mile. By a stupid blunder on the part of the parties appointed to carry out the details, the cent re buoy was not placed in position till after the race had commenced, which caused the London boat to pass on the wrong side. The case having been submitted to the stewards, they were disqualified, and the race was awarded to the second boat. On reaching the shore the Londoners were loudl:v cheered by their own countrymen. Distance 5,000 metref j. Time 24 minutes and a half. The next race was a six-oared one, open to all comers. There were nine boats entered, but only seven put in an appearance, namely, one from Brighton, one from Nawhaven, one from Hastings, three French boats, and Bain's t crew of Lambeth. The Londoners were again the favor arites at starting, in fact, it was " what odds will you take " to be accommodated. The various crews having taken np their positions, they got away in fine order at the signal, and they had gone but a very short distance when tho superior rowing of the Londoners again began to show itself. After the first mile and a quarter the Lambeth crew were fully 300 yards a-head when they were caught by a heavy sea, which burst a hole in the fore part of the boat. She immediately afterwards filled, but the crew, with care, managed to bring her out of deep water, and th :en swain ashore. The above untoward event caused great j 'oy to our brethren on the other side of the Channel, and equal disap pointment to the immense number of English, spectators who were present on the occasion. After this unfortunate occurrence, two spirited English sportsmen challenged the whole of the French crews to row the Londoners for £lOO a-side, which the Frenchmen accepted, but after a little calm consideration, our French allies thought they would be content with the honours they had by accident gained, and when the Londoners appeare d at the post, none the worse of their immersion in the water, they thought of the well known lines— " He that fights and runs away, May live to fight another day," and so the contest ended. The money is still in the hands of the Frenchauthorities on behalf of the London. crew. GRAND RACE BETWEEN A NORTH MIERICAN INDIAN AND E. MILLS, FOR THE CHAMFION,siIIp.—A race of more than usual interest took place yesterday at the White Lion grounds, Hackney-wick, in which a Seneca Indian;calledDeerfoot, from;Catteraugas. contends, I against an Englishman named Edward Mills, a well-know n runner in this country. The distance was six miles, for a t stake of £5O, and the champion's belt for that run, and tt le feet of one of the red skins (spoken of by J. Fenimorn Cooper) being pitted against those of a paleface caused so much excitement among the lovers of such sports tbg at several thousands of persons assembled. The Indian was brought over by John Macdonald, who had th e guidance of Heenan when in this country. The Indian , is a fine made man, about five feet eleven inches in height, whilst his opponent is a pigmy in comparison. De erfoot was dressed fantastically, and wore the feathers and skins em blematical of his tribe. The betting opened at in vens, with the Indian for choice ; but upon appearing at th e starting place the odds - were 6to 4,7 to 4, and left off a: t 2 to u . Mill.
