Owing to the increased easiness of money during the past week the usual meeting of the Bank of England directors to-day was invested with more than ordinary interest, because it was imagined in speculative channels that a reduction in the mini mum rate of discount might be deemed expedient. No alteration, however, has been made, the official quotation being maintained at 31 per cent., although the terms current in the open market continue to range as low as 2a per cent. It was scarcely be lieved in commercial circles, however, that an immediate relaxation would be announced, and the course adopted by the authorities has therefore excited very little discusssion among the mercan tile community, although it may has+ caused a little disappointment to some of the speculators at the Stock Exchange.

EXTRAORDINARY CHARGE AGAINST A COFFEEHOUSE KEEPER.-Mr. Thomas Howard, lately keeping a coffee• house in the Haymarket, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with stealing two curious ivory figures, of the value of £5, the property of Mr. Michael Hart, coffeehouse-keeper, of 200, Haymarket.

First half of the Ab. D.L. 29 subs. Mr. Edward Lewis, of Great Marlborough-street, appeared for the accused. Mr. Hart said—About a month ago I entared into nego tiations with Mr. Howard to take his business at 200, Haymarket. After a good deal of bargaining, I agreed tc give £l5O for the business, and to pay £3O for repairs, but after wards it was arranged that we should be partners; but this was again upset, and Mr. Howard said I should give him £l5O, and take all on the premises. I had seen the figures in question in Mr. Howard's room. On Mr. Howard leaving he brought down his chest, and I demanded to see what the box contained. He then asked me " Whether I was an idiot," but afterwards opened the chest, and then I found a quantity of bedding, &c., a box of cigars, and two bottles of wine. I told him he had no right to take the things, and that I would give him a box of cigars and two bottles of wine. I afterwards missed the figures. On Monday last Howard called in to buy a cigar, and I then asked him for the figures, and he then replied, " Do you take me for a idiot t Do you think I was going to let you have everything ?" I then told him that if he did not let me have the figures I would give him in charge, and last night I went to his lodgings and gave him in charge. A constable said he found the figures in the prisoner's box. Mr. Rogers's Ninette filly, 7st 41b (W. Bottom) 1 Mr. Hawksley's Paradox, 7st 121 b (Challoner) 2 Sir J.

After much delay at the post, caused • principally by the impatience of Peignoir,Bertha, and Paradox, the last men tioned being particularly fractious, they got away in good order; Paradox, Peignor, the Ninette filly, Black Pearl, Bertha, and St. Bernard ran in front throughout, the Ninette filly winning in a canter by two lengths ; half a length between the second and third ; St. Bernard, Tom Sayers, and Bertha headed the ruck, which finished in a body close up with Black Pearl.

When did you, Mr. Hart, see the figures last in the house ? Prosecutor—About a fortnight ago—about the 10th. It was last Monday when we came to the arrangement that I was to have all the things on the premises. Mr. Lewis—And the last time you saw them was on the 10th. There is no proof the things were there last Monday, and the agreement is dated the 28th. 1 14 1 Mr. Tyrwhitt—l think I must take it that the things were there last Monday. Who is to show they were not. Things seem to have been done in a loose manner. There is not enough to fix the accused with felony, but I must say that it was not proper to walk off with the things in the way Mr. Howard had done. I think I must have some security. 17121192 Mr. Lewis-1 have no objection if Mr. Hart thinks ho has *ale to the figures to let them remain in the hands of the police for a fortnight, that Mr. Hart may try the question at the County Court, but if your worship thinks there is any case for trial send it. Subsequently Mr. Tyrwhitt agreed to take the accused's recognisance to appear in a fortnight. The accused had in his possession about £2OO, which was ordered to be given up to him. - THAMES. SAILING NEAR THE WIND.—Mr. Smith, an attorney, came before Mr. Selfe, previous to the hearing of the night charges, and asked for a summons against a person named Benjamin Lavey, outfitter, of the West India Dock-road, Limehouse, for detaining some money belonging to a sailor named Williams. Mr. Smith said that the seaman received a £2O Bank of England note, and some other monies, from his captain, at a shipping office, and he owed a little money to a boarding house keeper, named Judge, with whom he was lodging, and a little to Lavey. The sailor, accompanied by Judge, went to Lavey's shop to discharge his account, and handed to the Jew a £2O note. The money actually owing to Lavey was £5, and to Judge £1 Ils., but Lavey kept the £2O note, and refused to give the sailor any change on the grounds that Judge was indebted to him. He sub witted that Lavey had no right to detain the sailor's money for another man's debt, and that, if it was not stealing, it was sailing very near the wind. --- Mr. Selfe—Did Judge authorise Lavey to detain the £2O note ? Mr. Smith—No, certainly not. Judge went there bone fide with the sailor to see him discharge a debt, and Lavey ought to have returned the change (£l6) to the sailor, after deducting the amount of his debt. I submit it is a most impudent and illegal proceeding. Mr. Selfe—No doubt of it. Take a summons against Lavey. GROSS OUTRAGE ON A YOUNG GIRL BY A _RAILWAY GUARD.

Snowden) 4 Botting-2 to 1 on the Wizard's dam filly, 4 to 1 agst the Brown Bess colt, 5 to 1 agst Brother to King of Dia monds. At the Strabane Quarter Sessions on Friday last, John Morris, a guard on the Londonderry and En niskillen Railway, was placed at the bar before the Worshipful Richard Nunn, Q.C., and a common jury, charged with an assault with intent to violate Miss Jane Hasley, an intelligent-looking girl of about 16 years of age; a second count charging him with a common assault on her whilst travelling as a passenger by the train. It appeared that the prosecntrix was the daughter of the Marquis of Abercorn's forester, a man of superior intelligence and of great respectability in his station. The prisoner also filled for many years a situation of great responsibility, that of guard to the Londonderry and Enniskillen Railway. The prosecutrix, Miss Jane Hasley, having served an apprenticeship in Strabane to a dressmaker, in Oct., 1860, she was sent to improve herself at the esta blishment of Mrs. Rankin, in Londonderry. She was allowed home to see her family at Baronscourt every six or eight weeks. On some of these occa sions she was accompanied by her brother, but more frequently she was alone. On oneof these occasions in July last, the prisoner put her into a first-class carriage, she having purchased a cheaper ticket, and when the train was in motion he contrived to enter the carriage of which she was the sole occupant, on the side opposite the platform. He then put his arms round her neck, kissed her several times threw her down on the seat of the carriage, and took indecent liberties with her. He promised her marriage, although it appeared from the evi dence that he was already a married man Some days transpired before she had an opportunity of telling her father what had , occurred. A Miss Mitchell was examined, and she also stated that the prisoner had taken improper liber ties with her in one of the carraiges. The Crown withdrew the indictment for the assault with intent, and the jury found the pri soner guilty of the common assault. He was sentenced to be imprisoned for 18 calendar months, A fine race, won by a head ; a neck between the second and third ; the fourth close up.

A long, but not a tedious day's sport. The racing com menced at half-past 11, and closed just as the dusk began to thicken, at about half-past 4. The incidents which marked the proceedings were not very important, and they are not likely to be long remembered. The great match for £2,000, between Wallace and Ben Webster, greatly to the dinap. pointment of all persons present, did not take place. Both horses were in the town, and reported well, but it is said that Ben Webster has not quite recovered from the injuries which he received when he got loose at Goodwood, and therefore Lord St. Vincent, deeming discretion the better part of valour, let Ben Webster " give up his part," and paid the £5OO forfeit. The success of Old Calabar for the Glasgow Stakes was, of course, a foregone conclusion, but he beat so utterly bad an animal that his position in the Derby betting was not much improved. Still his fine sweep ing action was greatly admired, and on returning to the weighing-stand he was surrounded by a large crowd of people "learned in horses," and who expressed only one opinion —that they were glad that so fine a horse belonged to such a ripe and true sportsman as Sir R. Bulkeley. After the race the Leviathan bookmaker from the North offered 1,000 to 100 agst Old Calabar for the Derby. By the way, the dam of Old Calabar, who Sir R. Bulkeley thought was too old for stud purposes, and whose age and infirmities were growing on her, was shot early this year. A partial settlement of the Cambridgeshire accounts took place this morning, but very little time was afforded for ad justing balances. Indeed, between the breakfast hour and the time appointed for the first race, there was scarcely " shaving time" for a large majority of speculators. On the Tuesday night the room was only thinly attended, and no betting worth recording took place. Optional Selling Plato of 50 sovs, for 3-yr-olds and up wards ; the winner to be sold for 300 sovs ; selling allow ances. Cambridgeshire Stakes Course, Mr. J.

Private letters from Panama, dated the 7th of October, state that the Tartar, 20, screw, Captain Hayes, and the Termagant, 25, screw, Capt. Hall, were lying at anchor there at that date, The Warrior, 40, screw, Capt. Hon. A. A. Coch rane, C. 8., arrived at Portland from Spithead at 610 p.m. on Monday. On Tuesday two members of the Board of Admiralty arrived at Weymouth, and were to go on board the ship yesterday morn ing, when it was expected she would proceed to sea. The wind still remained yesterday strong in the Channel at E.N.E. The Megfera screw troopship, Commander Hen derson, arrived at Portsmouth yesterday on her re turn from the Channel Islands, where she has been employed in relieving the troops stationed in the islands. The Himalaya screw troopship, Capt. John Sec combe, is filling up coal at Portsmouth in readiness for her West Indian voyage. The Rosario, 11, screw steamer, 150-horse power, having been completed at Sheerness, was yesterday taken out of the steam basin to be attached to the first division of the steam reserve in the Medway, under the command of Capt. Sehomberg. The Flying Fish, 6, screw steamsloop, 350-horse power, Commander W. H. Anderson, arrived at Sheerness yesterday, from the coast of Scotland, to be docked and have her defects made good. The screw steamsloop Icarus, 11, 150-horse power, Com mander Nowell Salmon, also arrived at Sheerness yesterday from the coast of Scotland to refit. During the time the Icarus has been stationed on the coast of Scotland she has been employed in pro tecting the fisheries. The screw steam gunvessel Lee, 5, 80-horse power, left Sheerness yesterday, on a trial trip, for the purpose of testing her machinery. The Sebastopol, War-department transport, com menced shipping at the Ordnance-wharf, Chatham, yesterday, 24 32-pounder cast-iron guns, together with a number of cases of condemned rifled muskets, for Woolwich. The 32-pounders will have the vents repaired before being issued for service. Her Majesty's paddlewheel steam yacht Osborne, Master-Commander George H. R. Bower, in the service of the Board of Admiralty, yesterday left Woolwich,and moored at Greenhithe to await orders. The iron screw steam storeship Industry, Master Commander George I. Hodges, having undergone extensive repairs in hull and machinery at Wool wich yesterday, proceeded to Deptford to ship vic tualling stores for Rio de Janeiro and the Isle of Ascension. The Industry embarked from Woolwich three Armstrong guns for the storeship Madagas car, Captain Richard D. White, at Rio. The Commodore's flagship Fisgard, at Woolwich, has been for some - weeks past crowded with super numerary seamen who have returned from leave of absence, after being paid off from foreign service, and as the Fisgard is devoted to the double purpose of a training ship for lads and a receiving ship for continuous service men, the inconvenience from want of accommodation and distinct messes and sleeping berths is at times very great. A portion of the platforms for the 100-pounder Armstrong guns to bo mounted on the centre and No. 1 bastions at the entrance to the river Medway, in lieu of the existing 68. pounder and 10-inch guns, with the armament, solid and hollow shot, shell, 8.7 c., were disembarked at the Ordnance camber under the direction of the Assistant-Superintendent of Military Stores. The remainder of the stores, together with the Armstrong guns, will arrive from Woolwich in the course of a few days, when the guns will be immediately mounted in position. THE ARMI, In order to provide some rational kind of amuse ment for the men composing the sub division of the depot brigade, Royal Artillery, stationed at Sheer ness, during the winter months, the officers attached to the division aro making arrangements for the formation of a Shaksperian amateur thea trical club, to consist of a limited number of officers and men of all ranks. Excellent accommodation exists in the garrison school-room for the produc tion of various pieces, and by permission of Col. Needham the building will be used, when required, for theatrical purposes. A similar attempt was in troduced into the garrison about two years since, and was attended with the most marked su2cess on every occasion of amateur theatrical performances taking place. The Royal Artillery officers at Sheer ness have undertaken to provide the necessary scenes. Yesterday the sth and 17th companies of Royal Engineers, which have just arrived at headquarters Chatham, the former from Woolwich and the latter from Malta, were inspected at Brompton barracks by Lieut.-Col. J. F. M. Browne, C.B. The sth com pany, prior to its being sent to Chatham to be held in readiness for embarkation for foreign service, was stationed at Woolwich 11 years. It is composed al most exclusively of tailors, who were employed in the Royal Engineer clothing establishment at Wool wich in making up the clothing for the entire corps of Royal Engineers, under the direction of Quarter master J. Mutch, commissary of clothing, assisted by a staff of sergeants and cutters. The latter remain at Woolwich, where the soldier tailors are to be su perseded by civilian workmen. A considerable ad ditional expense will be incurred to the Government as the Royal Engineers, who are excellent work men, made the clothing at considerably less cost than the private workmen. On the sth company being augmented for foreign service it will, of course, be made up by a due proportion of men of various trades. The 17th company had been at Malta six years. The excess of tailors in the s th company will be attached to the depot companies at headquarters. With the view of carrying out the provisions of the royal warrant of July 31, 1861, wherein it is provided that soldiers who have become entitled to one good conduct badge after three years' service shall not be allowed to obtain their discharge by purchase on more advantageous terms than those laid down in the Royal warrant of the Ist of July, 1848, a circular from the War-office, signed by Sir B. Hawes, K.C.8., Under-Secretary for War, was yesterday received at Chatham, directing that, in order to carry out the intention of the beforemen tioned warrant, the scale of rates for soldiers pur chasing their discharge, according to the War office regulations, shall stand as follows :—Above 5 and under 7 years' actual service, with one distin guishing mark ; Europeans—cavalry, £25; infantry, £18; blacks, £ll. The same prevision is to be in troduced in the Artillery scale of the finance regu lations. The other night, says the Tuanz7Herald i a man named James Healy, from Aghlosk, while returning from the fair in company with his wife and some friends, was waylaid on the road, knocked down, and beaten with sheep crooks, by two men named Pat and Dennis Mullin, of Gal lagh, and received such injuries that he died next day. The murderers, who are brothers, made no attempt to escaPN 2HE PRINCE OF WALES AND TIIE TEMPLE. l e at d i n a To-day is the Templars' jubilee. At the end of theirhwil. long va c ati on , j us t before putting off all ranks.bett better pastimes and sitting down to serious work, they are p repar i ng for a great ga l a d ay. Th e P r i nce o f Wales comes down to the Temple to enrol himself in their i s r h sls ' n f nn h s o a o t ft Ihiceaonhuaistl thatoi s n g ki mn been ne (l a a bsntyd a u d an e p n rt ine t r o; dinners in any elated by the people of this country. He is pro bably more intimately acquainted with the history of oar legal system, and has a better appreciation strange medley pr o d uce d b y feudal i sm, c i v i l olafwt,hae ndmodern jurisp ru d ence, of the students who will emerge than the majority from and him p . leaders' and conveyancers' ta orank chambers asa w cheerye rto He e a y nowthe come comes to k compliment of formal fellowshi p to a profession which has always been to Kings of critical England a powerful aid, and occasionally in times a wholesome admonition. There is no R oyal road to the acquisition of knowledge, and the heir apparent to the Crown Las had to work up his military and his legal education as sedu lously as any youth at a Military College or an Inn of Court; but the ascents which are so rugged to the ordinary aspirant naturally and properly become plain to the foot of a Royal Prince. The knowledge of the sword and the law is proper . and appropriat e i n a y oung man who will, in the course of nature and of all ordinary proba bilities, have to direct the exercise of the one for the protection and the administration of the other ; but no one wishes that he should work his way from the ranks to his military command, or that he should test his powers of digestion by an arduous course of practice upon the Temple commons. The Prince is already a Colonel ; to-day he becomes a Counsel learned in the law, and a Royal and learned Master of the Bench of the Middle Temple. The Templars have made extraordinary efforts to receive their Prince, and to induce the old Temple to look as unlike itself as possible. One might think, looking upon the tents and pavilions that are set up, that the successors of the Knights Templars had all been converted to Judaism, and were going forth to live in their own gardens during the Feast of Tabernacle. Had it been possible, we had rather the Prince saw this quaint old lawyers' haunt in its every-day dinginess. There is a great deal of cha racter about the place, which might not be without its suggestions to a mind open to youthfui impres sions. It is easy to see that this Temple is not that . which was b u ilt b y S o l omon , an d a f er til e th oug h t might pass into Royal memory that a princely student learns the l aw th a t h e may a id to i mprove it, and becomes one of a profession of lawyers in order that he may know h ow f ar th ey are to b e trusted with such improvement. When the Prince is asked to open a library of many thousand volumes, and is told that in books it is the least complete of all the Inns of Court Libraries, it must naturally occur to him that a science must be in a very un satisfactory state when it is scattered through such a mass of mouldering tomes. The walls themselves in the Temple will sometimes remind him of the im pudent defences of old absurdities not unfrequently met with in those admirable Conzwentaries written. within a few feet of the spot on which he will stand. Upon the most dreary and decrepit brick wall in the neighbourhood he may read the lively boast, " Aster phanicis revivisco," and he may think of some now dead and buried anomaly belauding itself in the pages of Blackstone. If he looks up in the Fountain-court, he will see two sundials carefully painted and preserved as traps to catch any stray sunbeam that may venture into the Tem ple, and to serve it with process ad testificanduni ; and he will also remark that the Benchers have sensibly added . g very hardworking and trustworthy clock, in case the efforts of these solar tipstaffs should fail. The Prince will not fail to recognise in this elaborate machinery for determisiing the time of day a fond illustration of the maxim which lies at the bottom of all a lawyer's profits, of all a counsel lor's prolixity, of all a conveyancer's wordiness, and of all the voluminous incomprehensibility of the statute-book. It is an illustretaaa ia dialling and in clockwork of the time-honoured maxim—Amps-Jews non nocent. Moreover, if the Prince could have quietly contemplated this collection of little lanes and small quadrangles in its natural semi-monastic state, the echoes which have slept during the lon g vacation just sluggishly awakening to the steps of the first hurried attorney's clerk, he might have had a better idea of the place whereof he is to become a Governor, and of the sort of life which leads an ordinary man up to the position of a Master of the Bench. We would not ask him to people the place with the tenants of other days ; to see the Templars in gaudy suits and burnished swords jostling forth through the gates to fill the neighbouring coffee-houses and try a tilt with the lion of the day, be he the great Ben Johnson, or glorious John Dryden, or other hero of his generation. Nor would we ask him to see Goldsmith and Johnson and Boswell forgather ing under the cloisters and walking off towards the Mitre. These were in days before the London gas works. But we could wish that the Prince could have seen in their normal state some of those hard-read ing denizens of the fourth floors, who are much too excited just now by his presence and the Benchers' cheer to appear in their natural state. We, do not mean the noisy gentlemen who are but what the student class all over the world is, but the pale young men whose cheeks have taken precociously the parchment tint. These are they who are bartering their youth for the chance of a distinguished old age. They are the Maynards, and Holts, and Yorkes, and Jocelyns, and Murrays, and Cansdens, ana Thurlows, and Eldons of the future. Tremendous will be their labour before they become Masters of the Bench. But, when this and other successes have been achieved, it is possible that the Prince may have to deal with some of them, when he and they are gray, as Chief Justices or Lord Chancellors, and they shall become the progenitors of future nobles. This is a large wheel in the social machine of England. Here in the Temple is the breeding ground for future noble families; here are the nests of all who shall crawl and of all who shall soar to the high places of the law. It should be interesting to a Prince to look upon the starters in this race. Let none, however, grudge those who succeed, for it is a toilsome life, and often thrown away. But if the Prince, wandering in thought from the artificial spectacle before him, might find in this lawyers' hive some things which are decrepit with out being interesting, and weak without being venerable, like the law itself, whereof the Temple is the school, yet there are other things which, again like that law, have strong roots in the past and a worthy hold upon the present. He will say his prayers in a church where Crusaders vow and the badge. He will feast in a hall where took the Queen Elizabeth held solemn revel, and which is adorned with the spoils of the Spanish Armada. In the long lines of emblazonries of the officer-bearers of the Society he will read a proof of the quiet security with which, for century after century, the custom of succession is observed in this conservative country, and especially in these conservative haunts ; and he may reflect how easy it must be to retain the affection of such a people. There is history all round him in this place, and history is not a mere shadow, it is a living power. History not only tells us that things we see have been before our time, but makes us love them because they impersonate old memories, and preserve them because we love them. The education of the Prince is said . to have been so judicious that we may believe him to have already acquired sufficient constitutional learning and legal knowledge to make good use of the impressions created by what "tot be to him a novel and interesting sight. It is not much he can discover of the real nature and the habits of the lawyers by seeing them in their holiday mood, but we hope he will recognise the good influences o f mo d ern i m provements when he contrasts the wea pons of the old Temp lars which now decorate the hall with the efficiency of the soldierlike volunteers whom the Temple has been able to muster from its own members as his guard of honour. If illustra tion were wanted on th e o th er h an d , a nd if i t wero wished to point the mo ra l th a t thi ngs ma y b e new without being necessarily more handsome or har monious, perhaps this good office might be done by the building which the Prince is about to open. Times.— THE FRENCH AT ROME.—.The following letter has been received from Rome, dated the 22d of October : " The departure of General de Goyon has given rise to the most extraordinary and contradictory reports. The ad vanced party assert that the General is recalled. Others say that the Emperor of the French has changed his poli tical views, and that he will soon withdraw the army of occupation from Rome. The fact is that General de Goyon was called to Paris by the telegraph. Before he left he went to see the Pope, who said he blessed him with all his heart, and that he was convinced the General would defend the cause of the Holy See in presence of the Emperor and of his Ministers. lam certain that General do Goyon will not be absent from Rome more than three weeks. In his absence the army is commanded by General de Gerandon. The Roman National Committee have opened a subscrip tion to raise a monument to Lucatelli. The Cardinal Vicar has given orders that the:prayer "pro temporabellt," whi c h was recited at the Mass since 1859 by command of the Pope, shall be discontinued. It is a fact that Rome is per fectly t ranqu il.
