Mr. Freshfield said the attesting witness to the transfer of th e £2,400, w hi c h was effected earlier in Nov., was ill at present, and he was therefore not in a position to proceed further with the case; but . he thought he had t en d ere d su ffi c i en t evidence tops tify the Bench in remanding the prisoner. Mr. Alderman Mechi thought so too, and asked what day would be most convenient. Mr. Fresh field said Wednesday next. The prisoner made no o bj ect i on, b ut as k e d t o have his gold watch and " the few sovereigns—£lo or £l2—which had been taken from him on his ap prehension, restored. The Alderman at first hesitated to comply with the request, thinking the money might have been part of the proceeds of the transfer ; but, Mr. Freshfield offering no objection, a portion of it was given up to the prisoner, as was also his watch.

A show of hands having been taken, and the Earl of Powis having been declared duly elected a member of the club, The Earl of Powts said he felt much gratified at the honour which had just been conferred upon him in electing him a member of the Smithfield Club, and he bad now the pleasure of proposing the "Vice Presidents," and in coup piing with that toast the name of his noble friend the Earl of Feversham.

Uncle Tom's Cabin' excited a profound sensation by its thrillinx descriptions of the-effects of American slavery upon the black race ; the work before us is likely to attract much attention by the vivid pictures it draws Of the reflex conse quences of the system upon the ,layelfolderA themselves. The tale is founded on facts, which are frequently verified by extracts from authoritative documents. It is well that the book comes out at the present crisis.

Volunteering from regiments of the Line, for this branch of th© service, which was discontinued a short time since, has recommenced. The seamd company of Royal Engineers, stationed at Aldershot Camp have been placed under orders to proceed to Canada. Witness—On the Tuesday of the week previous to the robbery. Witness again went on with her evidence. I have seen crape at Reeves's lodgings. That was on the Tuesday, the same day as I saw the life-preserver. About two years ago I was convicted in this court. I saw a piece of crape torn off and given to Reeves as he went out, by Puzey's sister. This was on the Tuesday previous to the robbery. Mr. Yardley—Had you known Puzey's sister be fore? Thirteen hundred deaths were registered in Lon don in the week that ended last Saturday. The mortality was considerably lower than it had been in the last two weeks of November, w hen the deaths were in both instances above 1,420. According to the average rate of mortality, as calculated on the returns of corresp)nding weeks in ten previous years (1851-60), the deaths in last week would have been 1,395. Scarlatina shows a disposition to decline. In three weeks of November the deaths from it rose above 100 ; last week they fell to 70. There is also a de crease in diptheria, which was recorded last week in only seven cases, though it had risen in the third week of last month to 27. In the returns of last week there were four deaths from scarlatina in tho sub-district of Gray's-inn-lane, three in that of St. George, Bloomsbury; four in that of Christchurch, Southwark ; three in Plumstead. Small-pox was fatal i❑ three cases; bronchitis in 174. The correc ted average of this last disease as derived from cor res. weeks is 179. Scarlatina has been very prevalent in the sub district of St. George, Bloomsbury, and out of a total number of 124 deaths registered since the beginning of July, 28 were from that disease. Mr. Yardley, the registrar, reports the death of a child of 5 years, the son of a cabman, in Coram-place, who died without medical attendance, in consequence, as is supposed, of an attack of scarlatina. On the day previous to the death the child's mother got a pennyworth of rhubarb for what she believed to be The Earl of FEVERSHAM respOnded. Lord BERNERS said, as the connection with the club and the proprietors of the Baker-street Bazaar was about to ter minate, he considered it only a graceful tribute to the honour and integrity with which the proprietor had dis charged all his engagements with the club, and who had invariably done his best to meet their requirements, to pro pose the " Health of Mr, Boulnois, the proprietor of the Baker-street Bazar."

Yesterday orders were received at Chatham gar rison for volunteering to be opened from several of the depots attached to the battalions of infantry for the 16th Regiment, which is under orders to pro ceed to Canada. The depots which are likely to give the greatest number of volunteers are those of the 20th, 31st, and 52d Light Infantry. Volunteers are to be taken as low as 5 feet 4 inches. In consequence of the enthusiasm just now manifested by the troops to proceed to North:America, not the slightest dif culty will be experienced in obtaining the required number. Each volunteer will receive the sum of one guinea on joining the 16th Regiment. Orders were also received at the garrison for recruiting to be at once opened for most of the Line regiments, the standard for recruits being now 5 feet 6 inches. The whole of the troops in the camp at Colchester are to be put through a course of heavy gun drillin squads of 30 men each. CHARGE OF FORGERY.

Last week the births of 837 boys and 819 girls, in all 1,656 children,were registered in London. In the 10 corresponding weeks of the years 1851-60 the average number was 1,660.

'—flerald and Standard, Nov. 12,1861. " The Post-office Turkish Bath 0.9, St. Martin's-le-Grand. —Dr. Culve7rwf-11 has already established the reputation of an able physician ; he has now proved himself to be a worthy philanthropist, in as far as he has established, in the heart of the City, an institution that more nearly than any disco very of modern days, goes nearer the abolition of the practice of physic, than any proposition or invention yet established, the Turkish Bath. . . Our object being merely to direct the attention of our City readers to the fact that they possess one of the best set of baths, at 19, St. Martin's-le-Grand, which the country can produce; perfect in fal its appliances, and most admirable in effect. Dr. Culverwell has fitted up his baths with a degree of elegance, hum y, and refinement, which, considering the space at his disposal, is truly sur prising, while everything that taste or delicacy could desire has been obtained to add to the comfort and luxury of the visitor. . . We may justly say that if a man ever feels himself regenerated and new made, it is on coming out of a TurkiAli Bath."—Bra, Oct. 13, 1861. Yesterday was the second of the four days devoted to the last show of the Smithfield Cattle Club at the Baker-street Bazaar, and it would appear, from the thousands who thronged the show-yard and its vicinity, thac'so far as the attendance of the public are concerned, though last, it will not be the least of the 23 exhibitions which have occupied the same place for that consecutive number of years. That the nobility and gentry equally with the agricul tural and the middle and trading classes have now become deeply interested in these annual displays of prize cattle, implements, &c., is clearly manifested by the vast number of carriages which again throughout the earlier portion of the day crowded the various thoroughfares and avenues leading to the bazaar, while the cognoscenti in such matters were in full force, and performed their usual amount of feeling, and pinching, and thumping the poor devoted prize animals, to the groat astonishment of the uninitiated, more especially the fairer portion of the ordinary visitors. To. wards the afternoon and evening the crowds were so great that locomotion throughout any portion of the bazaar be came exceedingly difficult, and, indeed, at times in the pig and short-woolled sheep departments and implement galle ries there was a perfect block. All, however, bore the in convenience good-temperedly, and, with the exception of here and there a slight mishap to those extensive garments which the ladies are now so wont to indulge in, nothing of any moment transpired to mar the pleasures of an annual visit to the Cattle Show. If this, however, was the case on the second day, it is impossible to divine what may be ex pected to-day and to-morrow—the last day, when usually the greatest pressure takes place. The sales, especially among the cattle classes, yesterday, were unusually brisk, and among them was the gold medal short-horned cow, No. 95, in class 12, and which also ob tained for the exhibitor, Mr. John Faulkner, the first prize of £2O, and silver medal to Sir John Harper Crewe, as the breeder. This splendid animal was sold to Mr. Martin, of Market-place, Derby. Mr. G. S. Foljambe's splendid pen of 20 months long-woolled Leicesters, which obtained the gold medal as best pen in any of the classes, as also the Ist prizo of £2O and silver medal to breeder, were sold to Mr, A. Palmer, of Wentworth and Elsecar, near Rotherham. The Prince Consort's 2 years and 10 months Devon steer, which obtained the 3d prize of £lO, was sold to Mr. J. Hine, of Stonehouse, Plymouth; and No. 9, in class 2, Earl Howe's 3 years and 10 months Devon, which obtained the Ist prize of £25, and silver medal in the class, was pur chased by Messrs. Robinson, of Cambridge. In the short-woolled sheep and pig classes, the sales effected during the day were very numerous, and- good prices are stated to have been realised. THE DINNER. Last evening the annual dinner of the Smithfield Cattle Club was held at the Freemason's Tavern, Great Queen street, Lincoln's-inn-fields. Lord 13erners, the present president of the club, occupied the chair, and was supported by the President-elect, Lord Faversham, the Earl of Powis, Lord Tredegar, Mr. Fisher Hobbs, Mr. H. Wilson (formerly member fcr West Suf folk), Mr. Jonas Webb, Mr. Rigden, Mr. Bennett, Mr. Baker, Mr. Shelton, and other agriculturists. The noble CHAIRMAN, in proposing "The Health of the Queen," referred to the American difficulty, and observed that, although he believed the farmers of England were in no way desirous that this country should enter into a war, still he knew full well that, should a war be nee:ssary, they would be prepared to suffer any inconvenience in defence of the honour and integrity of the flag of England. (Loud applause, in the midst of which the toast was drunk.) In proposing "The Health of his Royal Highness the Prince Consort," the CHAIRMAN expressed his regret that indisposition alone had prevented the show being honoured this year by the presence of his Royal Highness. They all knew, however, the deep interest he took in agriculture generally, and therefore to the farmers of England such a toast was most acceptable. (Cheers.) Lord TREDEGAR proposed " the Army, Navy, and Vo lunteers," which was cordially responded to. The noble CHAIRMAN said he had now to propose the toast of the evening, " Success to the Smithfield Cattle Club." (Applause.) On an occasion like that, when they were about entering upon a new phase in their removal from the present place of meeting to a new one, it was not inappropriate to give a slight glance at the progress of their institution. (Hear.) The Smithfield Club was established in 1798, and in 1800 it possessed about 50 members, but even out of that small body grew the Royal Agricultural Society of England in 1838. After the removal of the Smithfield Club from Goswell-street to the Baker-street Bazaar its progress had been most rapid and its patronage most gratifying. In 1846 and in 1850 their show was honoured by the presence of Her Majesty the Queen, and by the Empress of the French in 1860, and his Royal Highness the Prince Consort became a member cf the club in 1841. It was found that the requirements of the club outgrew the limits of the premises in Goswell-street, and it was in 1840 they removed to the place they now occupied in Baker-street. They all knew how the show had increased in extent, and the deep interest which the public took in it year after year. They must have witnessed the almost impossibility, in consequence of the crowded state of the building, of visiting and examining with any plea sure or practical utility the cattle exhibited, and especially of inspecting the articles displayed in the galleries. (Hear.) It was gratifying to see the increasing interest which had been taken in the show by the various classes of the country, They saw there rich and poor, peer and peasant, manufacturer and tradesman, and all alike anxious to examine the contents of their exhibition. They were now about to terminate the lease for the Baker-street Bazaar, and to remove to a new building now in course o erection by the Agricultural-hall Company,where he trusted they would have a much larger amount of space allotted for the various objects of their meeting, and where he hoped, and confidently believed, that still greater success, would attend the club. (Hear.) They this year distributed in money prizes £1,343, and upwards of £l6O in medals. The finances of the club were also, he was lutppy to say, in a most flourishing condition, and there was possibly scarcely any other society in the kingdom which could boast of the fact that, instead of paying for the accommodation for their annual cattle ebews, they, the Smithfield Club, were to re ceive a sum of £l,OOO for holding their show at the new Agricultural-hall next year. Last year it was determined to open several new classes, and, among others, one for mountain sheep, and he was happy to see in the yard that day four pairs of Exmoor sheep, which were well worth being shown. Mountain mutton was most valued in the metropolis, and he hoped that the prizes offered by the Club would produce more attention to the production of Exmoor and other breeds of mountain sheep. The object of the Club was to produce the greatest possible amount of meat, of the best quality, at the lowest price, and in doing that he trusted they would always prove successful. (Hear.) The noble chairman concluded by proposing the toast, which was drunk with great applause. Lord FEVEUSIIAM proposed " The health of the Chair man," and said they all knew the very deep interest his noble friend Lord Berners had always taken in the welfare of agriculture. The Smithfield Club, under his guidance, had prospered in a very great degree; and he had shown his further zeal for the welfare of the club in obtaining the removal of its annual meeting to one much more capable of accommodating Feversham) s ta c e that hada societylon g h atilthe (Lorde circu DI n of so much nationa l im p ortance as the Smithfield Club should with its surprise wants. so many years have he ld its meetin g s in a p lace so u tterl y i na d equ ate to its requirements. (Hear, hoar.) Ho trusted th a t their meeting of n e xt ye ar w oul d be held in that struek sp l e ndid building of which his noble friend, the chairman, laid the foundation - stone the other da y —the ne w Agricul tural Hall. Objections had been raised that if the cattle s how of the club were removed from th e west - end of the me t ro polis it would lose its prestige and the support that it no ,v received from the west-end tradesmen. He (Lord Feversham) had a pretty good acquaintance with west-end tradesmen and shopkeepers, and on making inquiries he could not find one solitary instance where there was any foundation for such a statement. (Hear, hear.) He hoped that they would have a place for their future exhibition's worthy of the dub and the metropolis, (Rear, hear.) The tinue unabated. The workmen for the Black Prince have been all entered save 4 millwrights. The numbers already entered for this frigate are as follows :-150 shipwrights, 6 caulkers, 50 joiners, 50 smiths, 40 labourers, 16 millwrights, 2 plumbers, 20 painters, and 3 coppersmiths. There were to be en tered for all services in this yard 150 shipwrights, 3 caulkers, 23 joiners, 14 smiths, 150 labourers, 35 millwrights, and 5 coppersmiths. Out of these there have already been entered 130 shipwrights,23joiners, 14 smiths, 115 labourers, and 13 millwrights. The 5 coppersmiths and 3 caulkers have not been entered. A number of men have been entered this week, and it is supposed that the required number will be obtained this week. Among the shipwrights en tered were men from Sunderland, Dundee, Glasgow, Isle of Wight, Jersey, Deal, Ireland, and one man from France, entered yesterday (Wednesday). The fitting out of the ships intended for commis sion is rapidly progressing. The Sutlej is in the steam basin; the shipwrights ,are busily engaged about the necessary work in their departments. The caulkers are caulking her decks and sides, and the sailors rigging her. It is reported that this ship is to be ready in a fortnight. The Stromboli is also in the basin, and her stores will be all got out to-day (Thurs day), when she will leave the basin if nothing unfore seen occurs. Several of her officers have joined. The men are using every endeavour to finish the contrac tors' work on board the Black Prince. The Euryalus and Shannon are also being prepared with all speed for immediate commission. The work on board the Warrior continues almost unceasingly. Men are employed at different jobs on board, such as altering her steering apparatus, Sc. These preparations make the dockyard one scene of bustle. The 18th company of Royal Engineers, which came yesterday from Port Victoria, Isle of Wight, in the Comet, are stationed at Anglesea Barracks, Port sea, where they remain in daily expectation of being ordered to Canada. A large number of seamen and lads arrived at Woolwich dockyard yesterday, from Portsmouth and Plymouth, for service on board the Devasta• tion, commissioned for the North. American stations, and other vessels fitting out. Her Majesty's screw steamship Rapid 11, 150 horse power, was yesterday ordered to be got ready at Woolwich for expedition to America. She will be armed with 40-pounder Armstrong guns. Her fitment is far advanced, and it is expected she will be ready for departure about the middle of next month. The Plover sailing transport yesterday arrived at Woolwich pier, and commenced landing unservice able guns, shot and shell, from Barbadoes. The screw steamship Hero, 91, Capt. Ryder, left Plymouth Sound on Tuesday evening, under canvas, for North America. The screw steam sloop Greyhound, 17,Commander Hickley, in Plymouth Sound, had steam up on Tuesday afternoon. If the trial of her engines proves successful, she will probably proceed to her destination, North America. The screw steam corvette Orpheus, 21, Capt. Burnett, C. 8., which left Plymouth on Tuesday with the transport Melbourne, will, after convoying her to Halfax, proceed for her original destination, the Australian station, unless countermanded by Admiral Milne. A large full-rigged ship was observed on Tuesday from St. Ives, Cornwall, supposed by her movements to be one of the American privateers reported in The Sun of Thursday last (sth). She is stated to have stopped several English merchant ships. Yesterday a party of 60 men of the Royal Marines, together with 30 seamen riggers from the dockyard, embarked at Chatham on board the Adder, paddlewheel steamer, Master-Comman der Blakey, and proceeded to Folly-point to assist in navigating the line-of-battle screw steamer Bombay, 81, to Sheerness, to be placed in the second division of the steam reserve. The Bombay was towed down the river by the Adder and Otter steamers. The duty of navigating the ships for the steam reserve out of harbour has hitherto always been performed by the seamen pensioners attached to the ordinary, bat, in consequence of that body having been discharged, the services of the Royal Marines were called in for that purpose. The iron steamer Defence, 22, Captain Powell, C. 13., fitting at Chatham, although only commis sioned last week, has already shipped more than half her crew of 450 men, about 250 seamen having joined her up to yesterday. The bulk of these have been sent to her from the ships of the coastguard service. The Pylades, 21, 400-horse power, has been sur veyed by the officials of the yard since she has been in dock at Chatham, and it is calculated that about six weeks or two months will complete all the re pairs necessary to be effected in her. The following appointments were made last evening at the Admiralty : Lieutenant—The Hon. Fred. W. Charteris to the Stromboli. Sub-Lieutenant--Geo. N. Smallpieee to the Devastation Midshipmen—Mr. G. 11. Lawson to the Revenge; C. A. Crispin to the Devastation. Naval Cadet C. H. Warren to the Devastation. Naval Cadets nominated—Mr. Edward V. B.

Instructions from his Royal Highness the General Commanding in Chief were yesterday received at Woolwich by Gen. Sir It. Dacres, commanding the 10th brigade garrison Artillery to be held in readi ness for immediate embarkation for British North America. In consequence of the above order, No. 3, Capt. T. S. P.

The three prisoners, Thomas P uzey, George Reeves, and Sarah Collett, were again brought up at the Marylebone Police Court, on the charge of robbery, with intent to murder. Mr. E. Lewis, of Great Marlborough-street, ap • peared to prosecute ; and Mr. Venn, of the New Inn Chambers, appeared for Reeves and Puzey ; and Mr. Allen, of Chancery-lane, for the woman Collett. The first witness called was an elderly widow lady, who said her name was Margaret Susannah Carr, living at 7, Eastbourne-terrace, and who deposed— I know the female prisoner, having employed her as charwoman somewhere about last month, but I am not certain. Hancock, the carpenter, was doing some work for me whilst Collett was charing for me. This might have been in November or Octo ber. Hancock made a communication to me, and in consequence I got rid of her as soon as I could, but I cannot recollect the date when she left. She left when the two new servants came. That was on the 21st Oct. Collett was there when they came. In reply to Mr. Yardley, witness said it was a fo r w days before this robbery that Hancock made the communication to her. I discharged her. Ellen Breen said—l live at 7, Charles-street, Lies 3n-grove, and am a single woman. I have known Puzey about G years. I have cohabited with him lately. I knew Reeves about three weeks before the robbery at Fulham-place. I know the female prisoner. I knew her a week before the robbery. I have seen the three together, on the Thursday be fore this robbery, at a public-house called the Queen. Reeves—lt is an infernal lie ; I never was there. Mr. Yardley—lf you do not keep quiet, I shall have you removed, and the evidence taken in your absence. Mr. Venn—And I must inform you that if you show yourself like this I will leave the case in your hands. Witness continued—The prisoner Reeves lodged ' at Victoria-place, Bayswater. I was at his lodg ing on the Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday previous to this robbery. I took tea at his (Reeves's) place on the Tuesday. I did not see Puzey there. I was there on the Thurs day, and saw Puzey about two o'clock on that day. He and Reeves came in together. It was No. 27, Victoria-place, and I stayed there till the evening. Puzey's sister said we should meet them at the Warwick Arms at eight o'clock. I went to the Warwick Arms R ith his sister, but did not meet anyone there. We went up Church-street, and his sister went into a pawnbroker's and pledged some thing, and we went through Manning-street into Bell-street, where we met Puzey. At that time I saw a key in his possession, and he said to his sister he had " been there, and it would not fit." He then asked his sister for the money to buy another key, and she gave him some. He said he and Reeves had been somewhere, and he had missed Reeves. He said he was going to buy another key. He said I was to be at the Weighbridge public house. His sister and myself went there. We waited on the bridge about 10 minutes, when Pazey came up and said he had not seen George (mean ing Reeves). About 10 minutes after this Reeves came up, and we went in and had some rum-and water, and I saw a key in Puzey's possession—the key he had been and:bought. It was a bright key, and he held it over the gas lamp till it became black. We then left the public-house and went straight from the Weighbridge to the bridge near the Warwick Arms. We then separated, and Puzey's sister and myself went down one street, whilst Puzey and Reeves went down Fulham place. We had to meet them at Paddington-green end. I saw George Reeves come up and lean his back against the lamp-post. Puzey came up and spoke to him. Puzey and Reeves then walked up to me and his (Puzey's) sister, and said to her " The key would not fit ; it wanted filing." We took a walk then to Maida-hill-bridge, where I bade him " Good night," and left Puzey, his sister, and Reeves together. On the Friday evening I went to !Reeves's lodgings, and was sitting on the sofa when Puzey came in. There was nothing said particularly in the room. We afterwards went up to Paddington, and Puzey and Reeves went away, and I and his sister went to James-street, Eastbourne-terrace, where she threw a stone down an area and said she wanted to see some one. I do not know whether it was Mrs. Carr's house. She (Puzey's sister) said to me that was where I was to go as servant. We waited about for some time without seeing any one. We took a walk and came round again, and saw the woman Collett, without a bonnet on and a jug in her hand, go into a public house. Puzey and Reeves were in the house, and I and his sister went in. Collett asked me if I would go for her husband, as she wanted to speak to him. I went for him to a public house in Praed street, and brought him to the Queen public-house. They spoke together, and Puzey said something, and his sister said to me, " That is the woman Ellen, where you are to go to place; that is the woman there." Mr. Yardley—Did she say that in the hearing of Collett ? Witness—Yes, sir. Witness continued—Puzey had said something to me in the week about going to place. I did not see them again for about a fortnight, when I saw Reeves shortly after the robbery. I then saw Puzey's sister who was living with Reeves. I said to her that Tom (Puzey) was no man to leave me like he did, and that he did not care whether my mother would take me or not. I also said he had found his way there before, and I knew a little more about him than he expected. She said the reason he did not come was because he had not been much out. Sho then said she had had to cut George's (Reeves) moustache off, and he hid got a very bad cold through it. She also said that whilst she was cutting it off she heard the police pass aud down the door and pass the Mr. Freshfield, who attended for the Bank, said, as the prisoner had only just been arrested, he did not wish to press the charge against him in its details with anything like haste. If, therefore, it was his wish, or that of the Court, that he should only adduce sufficient evidence to justify a remand, he should be disposed to adopt such a suggestion. He should, however, make a short statement of the circumstances under which the prisoner had been appredended. The prisoner, he was sorry to say, belonged to the profession of the law, and he was charged with having uttered two forged powers of attorney, one on the 6th of November last for the sale of £2,400 in the New Three per Cent. Annuities, standing in the names of Maria Gohegan and William Gohegan Coombs ; and another on the 29th of Nov., for the sale of £3,266 Is. 9d. Reduced Three per Cents., standing in the same names ' • and also with making transfers of the stock. Mr. Coombs, the co-props ietor with Mrs. Gohegan, resides at Halifax, Nova Scotia, and therefore it was impossible that he could have exe cuted the power of attorney of the 20th of Novem ber. Mrs. Gohegan, whom the prisoner knew, and who was in court, was executrix jointly with Mr. Coombs of her husband's ~ v iI 1, and she had a life interest in both the sums of stock which had been mentioned. In November, 1860, she had occasion to borrow a sum of money, and, seeing an advertise ment to which the name of the prisoner was ap pended, she called upon him at his office. The result of their interview was that the prisoner pro cured her £2OO, in consideration of which, at his request, she made an assignment, by way of mort gage, of her life interest in one or other of the sums of stock in question. Again, in September last, wanting £2OO more, she called a second time upon the . prisoner, who obtained that sum for her from a society with which he (Mr. Freshfield) believed he was professionally connected. In that way he came to know her personally. Shortly afterwards — namely, in October, he went down to Mrs. Gohe gan in the country, and so became further ac quainted with her. She would tell the Court that she did not execute the powers of attorney in ques tion, and knew nothing of their existence until Tuesday last. It would also be shown that the prisoner gave instruction to a respectable broker to procure them ; that they were then made out in his (the prisoner's) name, at his request ; and that he attended at the Bank, had the stock transferred, and received the proceeds of the transaction. Mr. Henry Gibb Garrett, clerk in one of the transfer-offices of the Bank of England, was called, and proved that on the 29th of last month, £3,266 Is. 9d. Three per Cent. Reduced Annuities stood in the books of the Bank in the name of Richard Gohegan, jun., of which stock Maria Gohegan, widow, and illiam Gohegan Coombs were pro prietors, as his executors. On the same day wit ness attested a transfer of that sum by one Henry Wells Young, whom he now believed to be the pri soner. The transfer was made under the power of attorney now produced. Alderman Mechi asked the prisoner if any lawyer was present in his behalf. The prisoner said there was not. Alderman Mechi—Do you wish to ask the wit ness any question. The prisoner said he did not ; he should reserve his defence. _ _ Mr. Roger Eykyn—l am a stockbroker in Change-alley. I know the prisoner. On the 26th of November I received instructions from him to obtain a power of attorney from the Bank of Eng land for the sale and transfer of £3,266 ls. 9d. Reduced Three per Cents. from Maria Gohegan and William Gohegan Coombs executors of Richard Gohegan, in favour of him, the prisoner. I did so, and, as - far as my memory serves me, I either gave or sent it to him. At any rate, it was delivered to him in the course of business. He returned it to me, executed, on the 28th, and I lodged it at the Bank, with a request to be allowed to act upon it next day. I saw him on the 28th, and he stated that the proceeds of the sale were particularly required for a special purpose,and that he should be much inconvenienced if he did not get the money on the 29th, or the day after. The authorities at the Bank consented to the power being acted on next day. I was not pre sent at the actual transfer of the stock, but one of my clerks was. I wrote the cheque produced for £2,946 lls. 9d., the proceeds of the sale, and it was given to the prisoner either by myself or a clerk. It has since been paid through the Charing-cross branch of the Bank of London. Mrs. Maria Gohegan—l am the widow of Richard Gohegan, and executrix of his will. My co-execa tor is William Gohegan Coombs, who resided at Halifax, Nova Scotia. I know that £3,266 ls. 9d. Reduced Three per Cents. Annuities was standing in my name and his in the books of the Bank of England. To the best of my belief, Mr. Coombs was at home in Halifax on the 29th of Nove w mb ih e e r. The letter produced, dated fr om t ha t p la c e on the 28th of November,is in his handwriting , with which I am acquainted. I know the prisoner. I never gave him any authority to obtain a power of attor ney for the transfer or sale of the £3,266 ls. 9d. stock, or of any part of it. The name " Maria Gohegan," attached to the document produced, is not my signature, nor is the name" W. G. Coombs" in the handwriting of my co-executor. It is no thing like his writing, It was not until yes terday that I first became aware of the transfer of this stock. I saw the prisoner about a month ago. He came down to me at my resi dence at Datchworth, near Stevenage, Herts. On that occasion he asked me if I wanted any more money, because, if I did, he could let me have it the following week. I said I was much obliged to him, but I did not require any. In Nov., 1860,1 had borrowed of a society with which he is connected £2OO, on an assignment by way of mortgage of my interest in the stock in question. Again, in Sept. last, I borrowed £2OO more from the society on a similar assignment by way of mortgage. In August last, when I saw him at his office, he asked me to let him know a few days before I went to receive my diTidellds, which will be due in 441 next, as he The London waters used for domestic purposes, according to the analyses of Dr. Robert Dundas Thomson, F.R.S., have begun to exhibit symptoms of being influenced in their composition by the wet weather. Several of the Thames waters were turbid, although they are understood to be filtered by the companies ; but those alluded to required fur ther purification by means of household filters before they could be used. The Kent Company continues to be steady in its composition. The East London contains the greatest amount of total impurity, but the organic matter is less than in some of the other waters.

The mean daily reading was above 30 in. on Mon day and Tuesday. On the former day thebarometer rose to 3032 in., and fell to 29 . 10 in. on Saturday. The mean temperature of the air in the week was 40.5 deg., which is 0.9 deg. below the average of the same week in 43 years (as determined by Mr. Glaishcr). The mean daily temperature was below the average on Monday and three following days, but rose above it by 7.6 deg. on Saturday. The thermometer fell below the freezing poirrof water on Monday and two following days. The lowest point was 27 . 3 deg. on Wednesday. The highest day temperature was 53 8 deg. on Saturday. The range in the week was therefore 26.5 deg. The mean daily range was 14.1 deg. The difference be tween the mean dew-point temperature and air temperature was 3 . 8 deg. The mean degree of humidity of the air was 88, complete saturation being represented by 100, which point was almost attained on Friday. The wind blew on Monday and two following days from the south-east, after wards chiefly from the south-west. The total amount of rain was 0.74 in., all of which fell on the last three days. Aurora was seen on the nights of Wednesday and Thursday. The mean of the highest readings of the temperature of the Thames was 40.2 deg, ; that of the lowest, 41 deg. STATE OF TRADE. LEICESTER, Dec. 11.—The hosiery trade remains in a healthy condition. There is a good demand for seasonable goods, and the operatives engaged in making articles of a heavy quality are well em ployed. The critical state of affairs in America does not much affect trade, as there has not for some time past been much doing for that continent. At Loughborough and Hindley business continues satisfactory. Yarns are still high in price, and material is firm ; spinners are fully employed. There is not much demand for wools, but prices are about the same. NOTTINGUAM, 11th.—The depression which has existed for so long a period in the lace trade con tinues, and during the last few days there has been very little doing in any department. The home demand, which is always flat at this period of the year, was never known to be more stagnant than it is at present. What is doing for abroad consists of a few small orders for Germany, Sze., and but little else is doing in shipping orders. There are some small lots of plain nets finishing, and a few orders for fancy goods, consisting of muslin edgings, curtain laces, &c., are in the market. There is no material change in the silk lace trade, nearly every branch being dull. In hosiery there is not much doing, and manufacturers sell and produce very cautiously. There are many lace and hosiery hands out of employment. Yarns continue high, and there are no indications of their being lower. The Government preparations for the conveyance of troops to Canada continue on a prompt and effective scale, calculated to increase the general confidence placed in them by the country. They have to-day chartered the Magda• lena and the Parana, belonging to the Royal Mail Steam Company, and respectively of 2,667 and 2,730 registered tonnage and 800 horse power ; and also the Adriatic, be longing to the Galway lino, and formerly one of the fi nes t and most powerful o f the Collins' mail steamers from New S SI C Kentish-townA C D ACID.--A A b y e e m r o r n . e e r i s s i . n ß q r n e e n s t t York to Liverpool.

Miss Upjohn, daughter of the de ceased, stated that, although her father resided with Dr. Winstone, her mother and the other members of the family lived at 99, Carlton-road. She last spoke to her father on Saturday last. She declined to say what then took place. On Wednesday her little brother delivered a note from her mother to her father. On Friday the fam il y were apprised of his death. Dr. Winstone stated the deceased, when he came to him, three months ago, wa s of regular habits. He had since been in the habit of taking laudanum in small in quantities, and in consequence was often a stupid state, as if inebriated. On Thursday, about midnight, the wit ness returned from the country, where he had been since the preceding Sunday. The prisoner was then well. On Friday morning, shortly after 9, the housemaid rushed into the sitting-room, exclaiming, " Dr. Upjohn is dead " The witness immediately went to the room, and found the de ceased dead in bed. A bottle of prussic acid lay on the floor, and there could be no doubt that his death was caused by that poison. It was probable that the deceased had taken the prussic acid bottle by mistake for that from which he was in the habit of taking laudanum, as both bottles were of the same size, and might have been stand ing together on the surgery table. The jury, after advert ing to the hesitating manner in which Miss Upjohn had given her evidence, returned an open verdict, to the effect that the deceased died from the effects of prussic acid,there being no vi deuce to show whether the poison had been taken? urposely or by mistake,
