The Bank of England return, completed to the 10th of April, is of a satisfactory character ; some lather important variations, however, are apparent. The Bullion, notwithstanding the demand for coin, arising from the payment of the dividends, shows a slight augmentation. The Reserve of Notes, from the same cause, has been slightly diminished, while there is a decrease of nearly three millions in sthe Public Deposits; the Private Deposits have b een Proportionally increased. There is also an extensive falling off in the Other Securities. The Payment of the dividends on Bank Stock has caused a diminution in the Rest of about £700,000 sterling. Another important feature in the return is a de erease to a large amount in the Government Secu rities, The other items of the balance-sheet, and th e changes they present, are shown in the sub- Mood table : Notes issued .. .• £26,848,700 Increase .. .. 180,240 Rest 3 167 563 •• •• •• •• •• , , Decrease .. • • .. 691,240 Public Deposits •• •• •• 4 1 902 , 527 Decrease .. .. 2,921,142 Other Deposits 13,201,791 Increase .. .. 1,566,311 Seven Day and other Bills .. .. 653,155 Increase .. .. • • 46,860 Government Securities • . • • 10 , 222 , 938 Decrease .. .. • • • • 385,086 Oth er s ecur iti es 18,816,006 'Decrease 1,402,057 Reserve of Notes 6,690,360 Decrease .. .. • . • • 154 , 130 Gold and Silver Coin 748,732 Decrease •• •• •• 67,938 Stock of Bullion .. .. 13,122,432, Increase .. 122,302 Active Circulation .. .. 20,158,340 Increase • • • • • • 334,370 Only a small amount of gold, viz., about £7,000, I taa sent into the Bank of England yesterday. A general decline was exhibited in the Foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon. At a meeting of the creditors of Mr. Phineas Abraham, West India merchant, who suspended on the 28th of last month, it was resolved to wind-up the estate under inspection. The liabilities were !Anted at £49,528, and the assets, £32,491. To-day a call of £2 per share, amounting to £50,000, became due on the Great Southern of India Railway shares. The Kooria Mooria has arrived from Aus tralia with £40,000 in gold. Soon after the English stock market opened this morning, it recovered from the depression caused yesterday :afternoon by some unfavourable tumours, now proved to be unfounded. The rail y, however, has not been maintained, a further de aline being reported on the Paris Bourse. Consols have been 911 to I for money, and 92* for account, they are now 91* t o and 911 8 respectively.

The annual meeting of the Agra and United Service Bank has just been held, at which it was stated that the nett profits for the year to 31st December last amounted to £130,345 14s. 4d., Which, added to the unappropriated balance of the previous year, will be £142,647 14s. 6d. From this two half-yearly dividends at the rate of 10 Per cent. have been declared, to the last of which 4 bonus of £1 per share was added, making the distribution for 1860 equivalent to 12 Per cent. Out of the remaining surplus, £lO,OOO has been placed to the credit of the Reserve Fund, increasing it to £200,000, at which it is intended to lea it stand until the business of the bank should increase sufficiently to warrant its further augmen tation. A balance of £12,647 14s. 6th remains to be carried to the next account. After some dis cussion the report was adopted, and the retiring -directors and auditors re-elected. The remunera tion of the latter was increased to £3OO. The dealings in the Foreign market have been of a moderate character. Turkish 6 per Cents, are fiat at 694 to 701 ; ditto New 1858, at 521 to 531; l exican, 23* 1 ; Grenada Active, 152- ; and Portu guese, 46; Chilian 4* per Cents. are firm at 83 ; and Brazilian 5 per Cents., 981.

MONEY ORDERS.—In the last 20 years the post offices of the United Kingdom have paid 92,008,30 money elders ; the sum thus paid was £177,779,046. The losses by irrecoverable arrears due from postmasters and others have been but £5,392, and nearly £4,000 went in two bad debts at Barnet and in Jersey ; since 1850 the losses have been less than £3OO ; sums amounting to 4282 remitted on keney order account have been lost in transmission through t he post-office, and sums to the amount of £291 have been Paid on false signatures and afterwards made good to the proper parties. The whole loss in the 20 years, £ 5 , 965 , ha s been taken from the proeeeds of unclaimed money orders. A curious event occurred on the Boulevard des italiens on Tuesday.

(Before the Common Sergeant.) ATTEMPTING TO OBTAIN A CHEQUE. Caroline Mary Palmer appeared to answer an indictment charging her with attempting to obtain a cheque, by false pretences, from the• Messrs. Coutts, bankers, Strand. The evidence for the prosecution went to show that at the end of February last a man named Samson, who had fre quently been employed by the defendant, stated that she told him that she wanted to get some money of hers out of Coutts' bank, but to enable her to do so she must procure a blank cheque. She induced him to go to a Mr. Young, as he had a drawing account. The circumstances excited suspicion, and he was arrested. Having been confined a fortnight, he was admitted to bail, and made some disclosures which led to the prisoner being taken into custody. The case mainly depended upon the evidence of Samson, against whom also there was an indictment. Mr. Cooper made a very forcible appeal for the prisoner, contending that Samson must be an accomplice, and that the evidence being uncorroborated, it was unsafe to con vict the prisoner on his statem,nt. The Common Sergeant having summed "up, The jury returned a verdict of guilty, and she was sen tenced to six months' imprisonment. Samson was then arraigned on an indictment similar to that upon which the prisoner had been tried, but no evi dence being offered, he was discharged. POLICE INTBLLIGENCE.—( This Day.) BOW-STREET. THE COMMERCIAL BANK FRAUD.—This morning Dar den and Holcroft were again placed before Mr. Henry for further examination. The proceedings, which were dull and uninteresting, con sisted in proving the handwriting of Durden to a number of entries in the books of the bank of certain moneys that had from time to time been paid over the counter to various persons ; the money so paid being taken from the account of a Mr. Joel, a customer of the bank, without his know ledge or sanction. Both prisoners were fully committed for trial. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. A WORKHOUSE HOLIDAY AND ITS RESULT.—Mary Ann Foley, an inmate of St Martin's -Workhouse, waa charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt as follows : The porter of the house, Michael Brennan, said that on the previous day the prisoner and some others were allowed to go to Hanwell School for a holiday to see their children, and a man was sent with them to see that they did not get drunk. However, he was not, it appeared, vigilant enough for the women, for five of them got very drunk, and the prisoner, who Was found rolling about the streets, and de claring "that she would have a cab, for the parish was a rich one and could afford to pay for it," was at length taken to the station on a stretcher. Mr. Tyrwhitt fined her ss. or seven days. Two or three other cases of drunkennesi and abuse towards Brennan were settled by fines or imprisonment in default. Brennan said there were several other cases to go before the board. Ellen Colman was next charged with making away with several articles of workhouse clothing, the property of the guardians of St. Martin's parish. This prisoner had also gone out for a holiday on the 15th March, and Dyer, the gatekeeper, said she never made her appearance again tid the previous day, when she entered minus several articles of clothing. As the prisoner had several times before been at the court, Mr. Tyrwhitt committed her for three months with hard labour. In the case of one of the women it was stated that she had been twice in one day charged with drunkenness. THAMES. £3 10s., AND NO SURRENDER.—James Delverley, a seaman, was brought before Mr. Selfe, charged with as saulting John Pickman and William Coakley, Thames police-constables, in the execution of their duty. It appeared that yesterday afternoon, a ship called the Netherby, was passing out of the London Dock basin, at Shoreditch, into the river. She is bound to Liverpool, and the crew on board had agreed to navigate her to that port "by the run" for £3 ss. each. The prisoner belongs to a party who had refused to take less than £3 10s. each " by the run," and their rallying cry " is £3 10s., and no sur render," which they have chalked on many places of the walls in the vicinity of the dock. Some menacing ges tures were used by the £3 10s. men to the £3 ss. men as the Netherby was being hauled through the lock, and the pri soner who belongs to the £3 10s. party attempted to go on board. The captain directed the constables to remove the prisoner, and they pulled him off a ladder made fast to the ship's side, and turned him out of the dock on to the public highway. He went round the dock and entered again, calling out "£3 10s. and no surrender I " and the officers again seized him, on which he struck Pickman a violent blow on the ear. A struggle took place in the crowd, is whz..L ~truck Coakley, a police-Con stable of the Thames Police, No. 63. A confederate also struck Coakley on the head. The prisoner was ultimately secured. Mr. Selfe said if there were any differences among sea men, and if the "no surrender" party dared to interfere with the other seamen who were satisfied with 13 ss. by the run, he would punish the offenders severely if a case was made out. He fined the prisoner 10s., and in default of payment, seven days' imprisonment. ROBBERY BY A. SERVANT.—Ann Kirby, aged 31, was brought before Mr. Selfe, charged with stealing three bottles of port wine, three drinking glasses, a piece of soap, and a piece of sponge cake, the property of Mr. Wm. Newman, the landlord of the Prince Regent public-house, in Ratcliff highway. It appeared from the evidence of Mrs. Jane Newman, wife of the prosecutor, that the prisoner had been in her service six weeks, and in the course of that time, money, wines, and spirits had been missing. A few mornings since a half sovereign was missed, under what Mrs. Newman designated " peculiar circumstances." It was part of the prisoner's duty to take her master's boots out of his bed room and clean them every morning. A few mornings since Mr. Newman was about to leave home, and in chang ing one waistcoat for another, he missed a half-sovereign from the pocket of the waistcoat he had worn the day be fore. That waistcoat was on a chair near his boots all night, and the prisoner was suspected to have taken the half sovereign out of the waistcoat pocket when she removed the boots. The prisoner's master and witness spoke of the loss of the half sovereign, and talked about sending for the police. Directly afterwards the half sove reign was found on the floor of the bar parlour. On the previous afternoon the prisoner was intoxicated, and could not do her work. At a late hour Mrs. Newman called in Police Sergeant Egerton, No. 11 H, who searched the pri soner's box, and found in it a bottle with a small quantity of wine in it, three wine glasses, a medicine bottle with half a pint of gin in it, three drinking glasses, a piece of sponge cake, and a piece of soap. The police sergeant also found between the bed and the mattress in the prisoner's room two port wine bottles. Mrs. Newman had no doubt the prisoner had stolen and drank three bottles of port wine, and said they were worth 15s. Mr. Selfe—Nonsense ; 15s. for three bottles of vine! Mrs. Newman—Yes, sir, it was very good wine. The drinking glasses are my husband's property, and the soap and sponge cake also belong to me. The prisoner pleaded guilty. Mrs: Newman said she wished the Magistrate to deal lightly with the prisoner, and in answer to a question by the Magistrate, said she received a good character with the prisoner from the landlord of the Horse and Leaping Bar, in High.street, Whitechapel. Mr. Selfe—lt is a night house. I have unfavourable re ports of that house. - Egerton—lt was formerly very badly conducted. It is now and has been for some time past a well conducted orderly house. Mr. Selfe said there was no doubt the prisoner had been robbing her employers systematically. He would, how ever, take into consideration the recommendation to mercy. He sentenced the prisoner to three weeks imprisonment and hard labour. CLOSING OP THE STRIKE.—We are very glad to be able to state that this unreasonable movement is almost at an end. Messrs. Lucas have now within 80 of their full number of hands of all trades; Messrs. Kelk have also nearly all their hands ; and at Sir M. Peto's they are com ing in very fast. The most important step towards putting an end to the dispute was made by the men at Mews. Lucas's yesterday, when after a meeting they decided by a large majority, in defiance of the trades union, that they would bind themselves to accept the Saturday half-holiday and the hour system of payment. At Messrs. Kelk's, we believe, the same decision has been arrived at, though not yet officially communicated to the employers. At both these yards, therefore, the pay-books will be opened before 1 o'clock to-day, and the men knock off work at that hcur, receiving under the new system of payment the same wages as they did for working through the Saturday afternoon. The trades will not be slow to see the real value of this boon when the men who are employed under the old sys tem, as they are returning to their work at one meet those employed under the new arrangement coming out to enjoy their half-holiday without any reduction in their weekly earnings. Before a fortnight is over we expect to find that half the trades in London will demand their half-holiday and the hourly system of payment, by which alone they can get it gratuitously. The men may think themselves most fortunate in getting this liberal concession, for the public opinion of England had long ago decided, with sur prising unanimity, that they were entitled to no concession whatever. The Governor of Lemberg, in Gallicia, has pub lished a decree forbidding all persons to wear the sword called karabela, forming part of the Polish national cos tume, without first obtaining permission of the proper authorities in the towns of Lemberg and "Cracow. Those who obtain the said permission will not be allowed to carry any other weapon, nor even the karabela, unless they wear the traditional Polish costume. 4 al 18.18.9 124.8.0 NES. 401 ( APRIL 13, 1861. SPORTING"NOTES: The meeting at Epsom was a decided success, both as re gards the quality of the sport and the unusually large num ber of visitors. The weather was everything that could be desired. The start for the City and Suburban was the most wretched that has ever been witnepsed, not more than ten horses out of the thirty-eight that went to the post getting well off, or the result would have been very different. The Two-Year-Old Stakes brought out decidedly the best horse of his . year we have seen in public up to the present time, Express accomplishing a most easy victory over Estrelda. Parmesan won the Metropolitan in a canter— m y selected, Danae, only being able to get a situation. The Newmarket Craven Meeting, which commences on Monday, will maintain its character for influencing so mach the great events of the year. There are nine subs to the Grosvenor Sweepstakes for three year olds, the best of which will turn up in Baron Roths child's Janus. The 50 Sovs Sweepstakes will fall to Lord Stamford by the aid of Imaus. The Sweepstakes of 25 Sovs should go to Little Lady, and the Riddlesworth to Will-o'•• the-Wisp. In the absence of Dundee the Sale Stakes will bring to the post Imaus, Kildonan, and Nemesis, and I fancy them in the order named. There are 37 acceptances for the Newmarket Handicap, but after the performance of Parmesan, Sawcutter, and General Hess at Epsom, I need not look further for the winner, and as no line can be drawn from the performance of the various horses in the City and Suburban; I would not be the least astonished to see the Metropolitan victor upset by The Giraffe filly. _ _ The 100 Sovs Sweepstakes will be a match between Star light and Nautilus. If Dundee should win the Sale Stakes, the 50 Sovs Sweepstakes will be a walk over for him. The Second Newmarket Biennial, for four year olds, D. 1., is likely to bring out St. Albans, Plumper, Sailor, Donner-und-Blitz, Umpire, Ebony, Angelo, Northern Light, Panae, Avalanche, Buccaneer, King of Diamonds, Provision, Professor, and Vanquisher. St. Albans is doing good work, and it is said will go to the post, but he has to give so much weight to Northern Light, Umpire, and Vanquisher, that he may not be able to quite pull through. Umpire will be on his own ground, and to him I give the preference. The Third Newmarket Biennial, for three-year olds, R.M., may introduce us to one of Lord Ailesbury's, Prince Plausible, The Roe, Asteroid, Vergiss-mein-Nicht ; one of Lord Coventry's, Quick Silver, Canary; one of Lord Exeter's, King of Kent, Nautilus, Garibaldi ; one of Mr. Merry's (probablyßussley), Prudence, Lupus, or Kildonan, Coperniciis, Janus, Lady Blanche, The Struggler, York ntinster, and one or two others. King of Kent has both shown speed and staying qualities. Janus will turn out, the best of Baron Rothschild's, and Russley that of Mr. Merry's. My impression is that Russley or Janus will furnish the winner. The Handicap of 30 Sovs is just the distance for Benbow or Angelo. Folkestone has only the Robert de Gorham colt to fear is the Column Stakes. The Aske Produce will be a match between Folkestone and Carbineer, but my pre ference is for tho former, who I have no doubt will be heard of in the quotations for the Derby. Folkestone will no doubt do duty for the second time in the 100 Sovereigns Sweepstakes ; and the three re maining sweepstakes will be credited to Lord Stamford's account by the aid of Imaus, Estrelda, and Emily. The Duke of Bedford may take his turn in a couple of 100 Sovs Sweepstakes wherein Asteroid is engaged, Janus being a dangerous opponent to him for one of them. Mr. Merry's Thormanby should carry off the Claret Stakes, unless he is upset by Umpire. Lord Glasgow may secure the second money with his Miss Whip filly. The Port Stakes will go to Whitewall by the aid of The Wizard, the only opponent he need fear being High Trea son. Prince Plausible is the best in the Bennington. The Thirsk Meeting, which takes place on Thursday and Friday, I shall refer to on Wednesday. A FRESH MAN. EPSOM RACES-FRIDAY.

On reaching the distance, Apollo and Von Stroom gave way to General Hess, who was joined at the centre of the Stand by the favourite. A few strides further Oliver was beaten, leaving the General and Angelo to finish the race home ; the latter, however, who got badly off, was never enabled to quite get up, and was beaten after a game struggle by half a length.

Half way in the distance, Barbiton was passed by Kildonan and Para site, and at the stand Mr. Parr's came out, and won, after a close finish, by three-quarters of a length, Parasite defeat ing Barbiton by two lengths for second, King of Hearts was a bad fourth, Selina filly next, and Sporting Life last.

As near as possible to the advertised time the horses were marshalled in front of the stand, and with little delay the flag was lowered to an excellent start. Shortly after they had settled down in tbeir place The Rock rushed to the front, followed by Danae, Betts, Pretendant, and Simla, the ruck headed by Bumble Bee lying in a dus t& at their heels, in the centre of which were The Rap, Parmesan, and Starke, the last of all being South Australian and Blue Jacket. On rounding the turn out of the course The Rock increased his lead, and went on several lengths in advance of his followers, but on his making the turn to the right he got his head up, and bolted through the gorse towards the warren, and was in consequence out of the race. This mishap gave the lead to Simla, who was closely waited upon by The Rap, Danae, Betts, and Atropia; Parmesan's bright colours being plainly visible heading the next lot, Bumble Bee and Rollcall being his immediate followers. On reaching the old mile-post Betts ran past Danae ; Par mesan, Pretendant, and Bumble Bee at the same time moved towards the front, and for a brief period the lot ran in close order, the others. headed by Blue Jacket, Starke, Viscount Brignall, Rollcall, and Sycophant beginning to exhibit the effect of the pace by gradually dropping into the rear, the last of all being Atropia and South Australian. Descending the hill, Pretendant ran into the fourth place, Simla still leading, Danae being second, and Betts third,with Parmesan and Bumble Bee in good positions. On fairly entering the straight Betts was beaten, and the favourite at tho same time mending her position, drew slightly away, having Danae at her quarters, Parmesan following on the upper side, and Bumble Bee on the lower rails, Pretendant and Blue Jacket following on in the centre of the course, nothing else having a chance. In this way they ran to the entrance of the Stand enclosure, where Simla and Danao were beaten ; Par mesan at the same time took up the running, and won easily by two lengths, Bumble Bee defeating Danae by a length for second, Simla was fourth, two lengths in the rear of Danae, Blue Jacket and Pretendant were fifth and sixfh. Betts and the Rap next. The Now Two •year-old Stakes of 10 soya. each, with 50 added ; colts, Bst 71b, and fillies, Bst 41b ; winners extra. T.Y.C. Three quarters of a mile. (63 subs.)

Betting-5 to 2 agst Bosh, 3to 1 agat Febrifuge, Bto 1 each agst Patriot. Marignan, and Paradox. After several failures the flag was lowered. Warrener, with Walpole in attendance, jumped away with a clear lead, followed by Patriot, the Frenchman, and the favourite into the straight. Half way up the distance Warrener beat a retreat, leaving the baron's colt in possession of the lead, but ere a few strides were passed he was joined by Patriot and Marignan. The three finished a close race home, Grimshaw landing the colours of his new employers by a head. Walpole a bad third, Paradox was fourth, Febrifuge, who was not placed throughout, fifth, Deception sixth, sister to Morella next ; the others beaten a long way. The BALACLAVA STAKES of 5 soya each, with 30 says added ; weight for age, with selling allowances. Half a mile. 11 subs.

On taking the preliminary canter, Mantrap broke away with Doyle and jumped the chains at Tattenham corner, and again those beyond, in doing which he put his foot on landing into a hole and rolled over, and, we are sorry to say, broke his back and was immediately destroyed. Doyle escaped very fortunately unhurt. At the first time of asking the lot left the post. Vulture jumped away with a strong lead, followed by Light, Sharpshooter, Adamant, and Star of the West, the others following at wide inter vals. At the distance the three placed came away together, and finished an excellent race, Light winning very cleverly at last by two lengths; Sharpshooter a bad third; Little Drummer and Gay Lad were fourth and fifth; the others trotted in. T.RE STARTING.—During the afternoon the stewards in vestigated the charges made by the starter against W. Bottom, H. Taylor, Reeves, Mitchell, Whiteley and Phillips for disobedience, when the following verdict was pro nounced :—W. Bottom, H. Taylor, and Reeves suspended to the 15th July; Mitchell and Whiteley to the 6th of May; Phillips to be severely reprimanded. BETTING AT MANCIIESTER.-FRIDAY. To day's business was not all confined to the meeting at Epsom. It soon became apparent that somethingwas wrong with Butterfly for Chester Cup, 20 to 1 was taken, then 300 to 10 was laid, and during the afternoon 1,000 to 10 was offered, but at the close the highest offer was 40 to 1. There was some little money put on Jealousy, First Lord, and Schism, at their respective prices for this event. 6 to 1 was laid against Dundee for the Derby, and 25 to 1 Neighbour and 66 to 1 Betts were offered. There were offers to take 7 to 1 Sweet Hawthorn for the Two Thousand Guineas, but• we heard no higher offer than 6 to 1. There was no great amount of business done.—Closing prices TWO THOUSAND GUINEAS. 6to 1 agst Sweet Hawthorn (offered—take 7) 9 to 1 agst Neighbour (taken) 10 to 1 agst Overton (taken) 20 to 1 agst Janus (taken.)

BRIDE-" TEE BETTING-11EN." A public vestry of the ratepayers and inhabi tants of the parish of St. Bride, Fleet-street, was held last evening, in the vestry-room, convened in compliance with a requisition to the churchwardens, for the purpose of "considering the best means of suppressing the gr , f-tt and continued nuisance caused by the assemlding of betting-men' in Bride lane, Bride-court, Poppin's-court, and at the corners of Fleet-street and Newgate-street." The meeting was presided over by the Rev. Charles Marshall, the vicar of the parish. The CHAIRMAN .briefly stated the objects of the meeting, and pointed out the inconvenience occa sioned by such• crowds as were in the habit of.-as ;embling in the places indicated in the notice. The Lord Mayor had been applied to last year, and for a lime there was a slight decrease in the nuisance, from the interference of the police, who kept close to these men and prevented their betting; that sy stem, however, had tailed, and the nuisance being now worse than ever, they ought to do something to suppress it. Mr. JEWELL :laving pointed out the injury inflicted on tradesmen in the vicinity of the nuisance, moved the following resolution :—" That this vestry finds with regret and apprehen sion the assembling of betting-men and other disreputable characters in Bride-lane and its neighbourhood continues end increases, to the hindrance of business, the obstruction of the thoroughfares, and the annoyance of the inha bitants; the meeting therefore pledges itself to use every means to suppress a nuisance so detrimental to the prosperity and character of the parish." Mr. KIRK having seccnded the resolution, Mr. SMITH, the - vestry clerk, stated that there was a great deal of difficulty in the case, inasmich as they must in the first place prove that these parties were assembled for an unlawful purpose. There might be considerable difficulty in doing that ; and what he would suggest was that they should apply to the Secretary for the Home De partment to pass an Let for abolishing the nuisance. Mr. Deputy OBBARD supported the resolution. He considered the Home Secretary would laugh at them were they to go to him respecting the matter, and he therefore hoped they would appoint a com mittee, and do their best to get rid 9f the nuisance themselves. After some further conversation, the resolution was put from the chair, and unanimously agreed to. A committee was also appointed to carry out the foregoing resolution. EXTRAORDINARY ()BARGE. HAVERFORDAVEST, THURSDAY. To-day Barbara Wilson, wife of Captain Le Hunte Wilson, appeared before a full bench of magistrates to answer the following charge :—" That she, the said Barbara Le Hunte Wilson, en or about the 12th day of July, 1860, did, together with one Brown and hls wife, amongst themselves unlawfully conspire, combine, confederate, and agree together to falsely and fraudulently palm off a certain male child of Brown and wife as the lawful child of William Le Hunte Wilson and the said Barbara his wife, so that the said child might, on the decease of the said William Le Hunte Wilson, possess as tenant in tail the estates to which the said William Le Hunte is tenant for life, for the purpose of defraud ing thereby the next elder brother." Mr. sleigh, of the Old Bailey, appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Wm. Davies, solicitor (with whom was Mr. J. C. James, solicitor), conducted the defence. Mr. Sleigh said that never in the course of a long professional career was he engaged in such an important case, or one in which greater public interests were involved. He knew of nothing com parable to it in importance since the celebrated Douglas peerage case. The defendant was mar ried some few years ago to Mr. Wilson ; she was then in very humble circumstances and very uned ucated. Mr. Wilson was a gentleman of large wealth, and of him Le was desirous to speak with every respect. He was unfortunately afflicted with a mental malady, which entitled him to every consideration. Well, he saw this person, was smit ten by her it appears, and married her, or rather she married herself to him. The magistrates would understand with what feelings of sorrow his family saw this unequal and most imprudent marriage. To the estates now possessed by Mr. Wilson his younger brother was heir in tail, and if there were no issue by the marriage of N.r. 'Wilson, would inherit them. Mrs. Wilson, howev er, desirous to prevent this, hit upon an expedient, and as there was no earthly prospect of her having a child by Mr. Wilson, it was resolved to palm off a surreptitious child upon Mr. Wilson as his son. The scheme was carried out with considerable skill and ability. It appeared that in the month of April last year, a man, named Mr. Brown and his wife resided at the Box, near Mr. Wilson's residence, at Minchinhampton. Brown was Mr. Wilson's coachman, and his wife was Mrs. Wilson's sister. In the early part of April Mrs. Brown was delivered of a child, and at this time Mrs. Wilson was roaming about the country with a companion, a Miss Earle, and a gentleman whom he would not name. They went to Ireland together, and shortly after Mrs. Wilson's and Miss Earle's return they went to London, where they were met by the same gentleman, who took lodgings for them. On the 12th of July, while residing in London, a telegram was sent to Mrs. Brown to come up to London ; that she and her husband went up, taking their baby with them; that they were met at the station by Miss Earle, who brought them to a coffee-house in Eccleston street, where Brown and the baby remained till nearly midnight, Mrs. Brown going with Miss Earle to the residence of Mrs. Wilson, in Charley wood-street, Pimlico ; that about midnight of that day Brown brought the child to Cnarleywood-street, where it was received by M rs . B rown an d b roug ht up to Mrs. Wilson's room, and on the next morn ing it was reported in the house that Mrs. Wilson ,d had been confined d ur i ng the n i ght. Th e learne counsel then call e d w i tnesses i n su pport of the statements which he had made. Mr. Davies said he would reserve his defence. The magistrates, after consultation, resolved to send the defendant for tri a l at the Central Criminal Court, L on d on , b u t t o acce pt bail, her husband in £BOO, and two sureties in £4OO each. Captain Wilson put in the requisite bail. Th e other two sureties were John Aboysius Blake, Esq„ M.P. for Waterford, and M. Geneste, Esq. P RUPEI4TI AND EJCOL_ZZ-.27..,; X ASSOCIATION. A meeting of the members and friends of this association was held at the London Tavern last evening, for the purpose of obtaining sn adjustment of the Ineome.tax by a reduction of the charge on trades, professions, and salaries, and also a reduc tion in the ak•sessment of house property v. hich is let on lease. The meeting was not GS wall attended as the promoters of it expected it would be—a circumstance Which it was supposed had arisen from two causes, namely, for the want of sufficient publicity as to the intention of holding the meeting, and next, the desire of the public to learn the exact proposal which the Chancellor of the Exchequer intended to make on Monday next, when be is to bring forward his budget in the House of Commons. Sir J. DUKE, Bart., M.P., in accordance with his promise co attend the meeting, was present, and was, upon the motion of Mr. Payne, of Sali•;bury court, Fleet -street, called to the chair. The Hon. CHAIRMAN apologised for being a little .after his time, but he had business to transact in the House of Commons in presenting petitions, and a question connected with the City being involved, ho had to wait until that matter was disposed of; ,:ed it having been adjourned, he made 01 possible haste to attend that meeting. (Hear, hear.) The question upon which they were met to discuss was one which came home to every man. Every one in the city had long felt the great hardship that those who laboured by their industry and intelligence to provide sustenance and support for themselves and. their families should be placed in the same position with those who possessed landed property. (Hear, hear.) He had himself always had a strong feeling on this question, and it was with pleasure that ho took the chair, and he came there to give his cor dial support to the proceedings of the association. (Hear, hear.) At the same time he could not help saying that he was sorry to see so small a number of his fellow• citizens present on an occasion in re lation to a question so materially connected with their own interests. He had expected to find the room upstairs crammed, and parties standing out side on the steps; but under the circumstances he was told that the feeling was, that they should not proceed with the business of the evening, but wait to see what the Chancellor of the Exchequer would do, and then see what were the views of the special committee of the House of Commons, which was now sitting on the subject of the income-tax. It must be gratifying to all present to know that the House of Commons had cheerfully responded to the motion of Mr. Hubbard for a committee to inquire into the operation of the income-tax, a subject which he (Sir James Duke) had very much at heart. If they should find that the Chancellor of the Exchequer persevered in assimilating the tax on incomes and property they could then petition the House of Commons and go before the commit tee, when he believed they would better impress the committee with their views on the subject. Ho was, however, in the hands of the meeting, and he was prepared to h ear an y o b servat i ons which might be made. (Hear, hear.) Mr. C. PAYNE concurred in the suggestion of the hon. chairman in reference to the propriety of the meeting being adjourned under the circumstances, and he therefore moved that it be adjourned ac cordingly. A Person, who described himself as one of the class of clerks of the metropolis, spoke of the pres sure which the income-tax made upon clerks hav ing from £lOO to £l-50. They had no margin to meet the tax like the tradesman—(a laugh)—an-3, therefore, they felt the severity of the tax. A WORKING MAN said that the class to which he belonged, who usually earned from 12s to 14s a. week, would willingly pay the inComt;-tax if they had an opportunity of doing so. Another speaker, who described himself as de riving his income from household property, com plained of the unequal pressure of the tax upon that class of property. The motion was then put from the chair, and was agreed to. - Mr. HIGIIAM, in proposing a vote of thanks to the chairman, expressed his regret that, owing to illness, he vas not able to give that publicity to the meeting, which was necessary. The motion was agreed to. Sir JAMES DUKE, in returning thanks, said he would be always happy to do anything in his power to promote the object which they had in view, and in every other respect to advance the political and social position of his constituents. The meeting then sJparated. THIS DAPS MARKETS. COVENT GARDEN.
