MAN SION-110USE.—James Pierce and Harriet Siddle were charged before Alderman Wilson with having robbed a lady in an omnibus. Butler, of the detective force, said—At half-past three o'clock yesterday, as I was on duty in front of the Man sion -house, I was called by the conductor of the Bays water omnibus No. 6,792, to take into custody two per sons who were accused of having stolen a lady's purse. The prisoners were pointed out to me by a lady and gentleman in the omnibus as the thieves. The lady who was robbed, having received back her property, was satisfied with the restitution, and was unwilling to pro smite, but she is now in attendance. On the man, who was searched at the station-house, was found a purse containing 8/. in gold and upwards of a pound in silver. I also found in his possession a gold watch, a gold chain, and a gold chain and ring, which I believe to be very valuable. He gave a false address. Mrs. Esther Mullins, of Weymouth-street, Portland place, said—l went into the Bayswater omnibus at the end of Cornhill. The male pr soner sat at one side of me, and the female at the other. I had a purse in the pocket of my dress containing three sovereigns and a half sovereign, and some silver and papers. The omnibus had gone a few paces beyond the Mansion house gate, when the woman said, "Is this a Pad dington omnibus l" "No," said I, "itis a Bayswater omnibus." She then requested that the omnibus might be stopped, and suspecting that she was not honest, I put my hand at once to my pocket and I found that my purse was gone. When the woman was about to leave the vehicle I said, putting my hand upon her, " Stop a minute, I have lost my purse, and I must find it." A person on the opposite side called out, " She has passed it. The male prisoner then said to me, point ing to my purse, which lay on the seat behind him, "Is this it ?" I said " Yes," and took up the purse, telling the conductor to drive on, as I was perfectly satisfied with the recovery of my purse. Miss Mary Urquhart stated that she was in the om nibus with her father and mother, and that she dis tinctly saw the female hand the purse to the male prisoner behind the back of the prosecutrix, and at the moment the prosecutrix said she had lost her purse, the witness said the man was an accomplice in the robbery. The woman, with tears in her eyes, said to the prose cutrix, when the police was called, " For God's sake, say you d roppe d your purse, or that lam your friend,or somethi ng o f that kind." To which the prose cutrix replied. "No, although I am unwilling to yros?cute y ou, I shall have nothing at all to do with ou. Mr. B. C. Urquhart, of Mellon, in Aberdeenshire, the father of the young lady who had just given evidence, stated to nearly the same effect. The prisoners said the other passengers in the omni bus were mistaken, and that the purse had made its appearance on the seat without the knowledge of any body. Alderman Wilson said he would commit the prisoners for trial, and thanked Mr. and Miss Urquhart for the determination they showed to bring the prisoners to justice, when the prosecutrix was satisfied to let them loose upon the public upon getting back her property. GUILDHALL.--Charles Alfred, alias James, alias Oroley, was placed at the bar before Alderman Mug geridge on the following charge. Police constable 229 said that about five minutes to two o'clock yesterday morning he saw the prisoner car rying a carpet bag down Holborn-hill, and in answer to witness's questions he said the bag contained cutlery which he had brought from Miss Parker, at 90, Edge ware-road, and was about to tak e it t o Purssell's, the confectioner in Cornhill. He said his own name was Charles Alfred, and that he lived in Aldersgate•street. Witness then examined the bag, and on finding in it a quantity of silver and plated goods, he took him into custody, On making inquiries the witness found that the whole of the prisoner's statement was false. The property in the bag consisted of 44 forks, 20 spoons, 13 knives, 1 fish slice, 2 knife rests, and a banker's cheque book. On the prisoner were found a razor, a silver watch, it. Os. 6d. in silver, and is. Id. in copper. The prisoner was identified at the station as having lived in the service of Miss Parker, of Islington, and, on going to that lady's address, he found the house had been entered during the night by thieves, who had visited the plate basket and broken open the till, from which the exact amount in silver found on the prisoner was missing, as well as a porte monnaie containing a 51. Bank of England note and some gold. The place was in great confusion, and the street door, which had two locks on it, had been opened by means of keys, and one of the bolts which offered resistance was f orce d from its socket. There were no marks of housebreaking implements on the door, which they carefully closed after them when they left with their plunder. Witness also found on the prisoner an envelope addressed to him in the name of Chas. Croley, which give hies a clue to his lodgings, and, on searching them , he discovered a cup and sau cer belonging to Miss Parker. As the prisoner was enter ing the station-house door he stumbled and fell on the mat, and thelnext morning the missing porte monnaie, containing the Si. note and 21 sovereigns, was found with two keys under the mat. Miss Parker said she carried on the business of a china and glass dealer, at S, High-street, Islington. The prisoner was in her employ as a porter for eighteen months, but left her about 12 months ago. He then went by the name of Croley. Her house was broken open on the previous night, but she heard no noise, nor did she learn the fact until informed by her sister, who ascertained, on coming down stairs, that the ti,l had been forced, and that, as well as the plate basket, rifled of their contents. Her sister fastened up the house between 11 and 12 o'clock on Monday night. Remanded. BOW-STREET. —.ToAn, Jackson, a dirty looking fellow, was charged with skinning live cats. Jane Davis, a woman residing in the narrow thorough fare ~called Whetstone-park, Lincoln's-inn-fields, stated that she was looking out of window, at dusk, when she saw the prisoner throw a largo parcel on the dung heap in front of her house and then run away. Fearing she might not get down stairs in time to overtake him, she called to some boys to stop him. They followed the man, and presently he was brought back by a police constable. The parcel was then examined, and found to contain the bodies of four cats, which had evidently been skinned alive, as they were quite warm, Witness added that dead cats, skinned in the same manner, were constantly being thrown upon the same heap, and con sequently she was anxious to find out who the offenders were. The constable reported that there were repeated com plaints in the neighbourhood respecting the loss of cats. The prisoner admitted that he had skinned the ani mals, and sold the skins for 3d. each in Petticoat-lane ; but he declared that he found the cats lying dead in various parts of London. As there seemed to be some difficulty in sustaining the charge of cruelty—no one having witnessed the operation of skinning—it was suggested that the pri soner might be indicted for stealing the cats. Mr. Burnaby, the chief clerk, observed that a cat was not recognised as a subject of larceny at common law. The prisoner was discharged. CLERKENWELL.—EIiza (,roves, a young woman 23 years of age, was charged with having attempted to commit suicide. Edward Turner, greengrocer, of 43, Hampden-street, Somers Town, said that at 10 o'clock on Monday morn ing last he was returning home in his cart from Colney, when he saw the prisoner wandering about strangely in a field near the New River. He suspected that she meant to drown herself, and watched her until she plunged into the water. He instantly hastened towards the spot, about a quarter of a mile off, when he found her struggling, on which he jumped in and brought her out in a state of insensibility. He then drove her to the Manor -house, near the Green-lanes, Hornsey, where every humane attention was afforded, and she was re stored to her senses. She was then given into the cus tody of Baker, 242, and Greenway; 377 N, who con veyed her to Homerton Workhouse, where she received every attention, and yesterday she was sufficiently re covered to be brought to this court, but she was in a most melancholy state. _ _ Mr. Tyrwhitf asked the poor creature what she had. to say ? She replied, despondingly, " I have done something wrong, and am sorry for it.." Turner said when he took her from the water she was praying, with her hands clasped, and said, faintly, " Let me die. She afterwards said she was a dressmaker; her mother had not treated her well; she married a man with a family after her father's death, and she would not re turn to her mother, - but would to her brother, who had treated her kindly, and she gave his address. Turner, the witness, said when she was taken from the river he found her garters tied tightly round her neck, and he cut them off with his knife. Mr. Tyrwhitt feelingly remonstrated with her, and de livered her over to her brother, and after complimenting Turner, who is a poor man with an afflicted wife and six children, he presented him with a sovereign, for which he thanked the worthy magistrate. A cabriolet driver, in the employ of Mr. Richard Veal, of 4, Dowwester-mews, Crawford-street, Marylebone, was charged at the instance of the Society for the Pre vention of Cruelty with cruelty towards a horse. Mr. Forster, the superintendent of the society, at' tended for the prosecution, and called evidence to prove that the horse was driven all night whilst in a m ost hor rible state. The defendant said Mr. V ea l was aware of the animal's condition when it was taken out. Mr. Tyrwhitt reprobated Veal's conduct, and fined him 40s. and discharged the driver. PRICE OF GoLD.—Tho quotation of gold at Paris is about 3 per mille discount (according to , the last t ar iff), which, at the English Mint price of 36. 17s. 101 d. per givran exchange of 25 . 0 91 ; and, London at sh or t b e i ng 24.95, the.oi t z followsexchange h s t a a n n gt d he a aa r g ttd Parisgold o ld , on is about 0.58 per cent. dearer in Paris than in London. By advises from Hamburg the price of gold is 42.0 per mark, which, a t t h e E ngl i sh M i nt priceof 31 c ; f 111. 10 .id. per oz. for st an d ard gold, gives an exchange 2g . and, the exchange at hamburg on London at short being 13.1 4 i it follows that gold is 0.30 per cent. dearer in Hamburg than in London. The course of exchange at New York on London for bills at b6O days'wee s ight is 109 pe r cent., and, the par of exchange a England and A mer i ca b e i ng 109 23-40 per cent. , it follows that the exchange is nominally 0.58 per cent. ag ainst England. between England But, after making allowance for c harges of transport and difference of interest, the pre sent rate leaves no profit on the tra.nsmiseion of gold either way between the two couhtries.

We learn from Gibraltar that, on the 23d ult., draughts of the 41st and 47th Regiments had arrived there, under the command of Major Farren, of the 47th, after a very good passage of 5 days from Liverpool on board the screw steamer Taurus. The ship being placed in quarantine the officers were unable to go on shore, but the troops were in excellent health and spirits, and the arrangements on board had given entire satisfaction. The Taurus, after taking in coals, had proceeded the same day at 1 p.m. on her way to Malta, where, it is announced by telegraph, that she has arrived in safety. The Lords of the Treasury have intimated to the Com missioners of the Customs, by letter, dated the 24th of March, that copper, pig iron, bar iron, hemp, flax, pitch, tar, resin, turpentine, and oakum maybe exported with out any bond being given, but their lordships reserve to themselves the discretion of requiring bond hereafter on the exportation of these articles, should they see cause to do so. A new steam mill for army purposes bas just been sent out to Malta, which had been constructed in this country in compliance with an order from Odessa, but the ex portation of which had been stopped by the Royal pro clamation. It was much required at Malta, the Admi ralty steam mill there being unequal to the pressure upon it, and the old mule mills of be Knights of the island not being suited to the requirements of the pre sent age. From the Baltic fleet at Kiel a letter written on the 28th states, that since their departure from England the officers on board the different ships bad not communi cated with each other, nor did there seem any prospect of their being able to do so until they got into some har bour. The entrance to Revel is said to be commanded by a strong fortress called Owesland, constructed of granite, and on which there are three batteries mounting 800 guns. It is also said to be garrisoned by a large force. The embarkation, yesterday morning, at Liverpool, of the gallant 88th was marked with even more enthu siasm than were the preceding occurrences of the same kind. The regiment, composed of about 850 men rank and file, left Preston at 9.45 a.m. in a train consisting of 43 , carriages, drawn by two powerful engines, and arrived at the Tithebarn-street station of the East Lancashire Railway at 11.10 a.m. The morning was unusually fine, and the men in exuberant spirits, there being but one drawback to the general enthusiasm. A number of wo men, the wives and sweethearts of the men, were taking their adieus, and it was most painful to witness their unrestrained grief, and the efforts of the men to comfort them. A few minutes before 1 o'clock the order was given to march, the band playing several bars of St. Patrick's Day, and the multitude cheering heartily as they set out. In defiling through the streets there was a far greater display of popular enthusiasm than at the embarkation of the 28th, a fact which may be accounted for by the popularity of this regiment among the Irish, who form a large proportion of the lower population of Liverpool. Old men, women, and young boys, jostled each other, and struggled for the honour of shaking hands with the troops, who were greeted w ith goo d wishes from all sides. The troops were conducted to the Exchange-area, where they remained at ease, formed along each side of the square, for a short tii ; they proceeded thence to the Great Landing-stage, where they were speedily embarked on board the steam-tenders Satellite and Jackall, and two capacious barges, the Mon key and the Badger, belonging to the Cunard Company, used for conveyance of cargo and luggage on board the Royal Transatlantic mail steamers. The salt water-baths at St. George's pier, the pier itself, the Great Landing-stage, and the approaches thereto, were densely crowded, while the emigrant vessels in the river were crowded from stem to stern by the passengers. During the embarkation the band of the regiment, which was stationed at the south end of the landing, played "Patrick's Day," "Cheer, boys, cheer," and other airs, concluding with the na tional air. When all the men had been embarked, the tenders were released from their moorings, and each, with a barge alongside, steamed rapidly to the Niagara, which lay at anchor in the Sloyne. As they passed the emigrant ships Africa (for Australia), Winchester, and Break-of-Day (United States), those vessels dipped their colours, and enthusiastic cheering arose from the crowded decks. Although leaving the Old World for their adopted countries, the emigrants do not leave behind them the antor patrice. The Niagara will sail by break of day for Malta. About 70 volunteers accompany the regiment, from the 82d, 26th (Cameronian), 36th, and 48th. Two com panies are left at Burnley, which has been the head quarters of the regiment. Yesterday morning the 23d Royal Welch Fusiliers, Lieutenant-Colonel Chester, numbering 35 officers, 950 rank and file, and 14 women, left their quarters in Portsmou'h garrison to take the railway at Landport for conveyance to Southampton, and there to embark on the Royal West India Mail Company's steam-ship Trent, for the seat of war in the East. The regiment quitted the Garence Barracks at a quarter-past 7 o'clock, played out by the bands of the 42d and 79th Highlanders, and accompanied by a vast concourse of inhabitants, who expressed their farewell good wishes in loud and hearty cheers. The fine goat, presented to the regiment by her Majesty, gravely led the way, as the gallant Fusiliers took their departure. Their colonel-in-chief, Lieutenant- General Sir George D'Aguilar, K.C.8., accompanied them to the railway terminus, and Major-General Simp son and staff preceded them to Southampton to see them safely embarked. Their embarkation at Southampton was effected with the s greatest ease and without the slightest confusion, the regiment having marched into the docks from the railway station, and the Trent being moored alongside the wharf the troops were enabled to go straight on board the fine steamer prepared for their reception. The arrangements for the comfort of the officers and men on board appear to be most excellent, and reflect great credit on the par ties intrusted with that task. But one accident occurred to mar the general facility with which this gallant corps got on board, and this arose from one of the non-com missioned officers (a sergeant) having broken his leg while leaping from the paddle-box of toe steamer to the dock wall. The splendid band of the regiment was drawn up on the quarter-deck of the ship, and per formed a number of airs during the proceedings. -At two o'clock the Trent left the docks, amid great cheer ing from the spectators on the Dock-bead, her band playing the national anthem. She has anchored in the Stre an for the night, and proceeds to sea this morning. The 7th Fusiliers are expected to reach Southampton to-day, and will embark on board the Orinoco. All the ships are provisioned for 30 days. The 95th Regiment, from Weedon, arrived in Ports mouth garrison yesterday evening, and took up their quarters in the barracks vacated by the Fusiliers until Thursday, when the Medway, West India mail packet, will come to embark them for the East The Port Admiral's sailing cutter Fanny, Second Master Searlett in charge, but commissioned by a lieu tenant of the flag-ship, was despatched yesterday morn ing at half-past six to cruise off Dungeness and recon noitre, the Government having suspicions of " some thing moving" in that direction. She was amplyartned before being despatched, and received an additional number of seamen and a body of marines from the flag ship. The Megmra, 6, screw troop-ship, Com. .T. 0. Johnson, is in No. 7 dock, being refitted with the utmost expedi tion to convey the 42d Highlanders to the East. She must be ready to embark them by the 23d inst. The St. Vincent, 101, Capt. E. H. Scott, having been docked and examined, was yesterday removed to the fit- ting basin to complete. The Gladiator, 6, paddle-wheel steam -frigate, is ordered to be commissioned at Portsmouth, by Captain Broke, for the war service. The Excellent, 46, gunnery-ship, Captain Sir T. Mait land, C. 8., has been removed to alongside the Camper down, 104, in ordinary, while her moorings are being taken up and examined. The Resistance, 10, troop-ship, Master-Com. Bradshaw, was hauled off' to her hulk yesterday to rattle down and paint. The Cumberland, 70, Captain Seymour, flag of Vice- Admiral Sir G. Seymour, K.C.8., was hourly expected at Portsmouth from the West India Station. She is or dered to join the Baltic fleet. • Among the passengers for Malta yesterday by the Pe ninsular and Oriental steam-ship Colombo were the fol lowing offioers attached to the British Expeditionary Army of the East, viz. : —Commissary-General Filder ; Deputy-Commissary, General Adams; Deputy-Assistant Commissary, General Rogers; Acting Deputy-Assistant Commissary, General Murray; Storekeepers, Hayes and Power; Revs. J. Campbell and G. Lawless. The Colombo also took out a considerable quantity of military stores on Government account, to be landed at Malta, comprising 50 cases of rifles, 250 packages am munition, and a steam flour mill, besides a quantity of clothing, &c., for the troops. The Sprightly arrived on Monday at Plymouth, from Portsmouth, with seamen for the Nile and Algiers. The screw steam-ship Algiers, 90, has been taken into dock, and to be fitted with ail possible despatch. The quantity of bread now baking at the Royal Wil liam Victualling-yard, Plymouth. is 40,3201 b. per day, or 241,9201 b. per week. The Cruiser, 16, screw steam-sloop, Captain Hon. George H. Douglas, left Shields on Sunday morning with important despatches for the Baltic fleet. The Basilisk, paddle-wheel steam-sloop, Commander Hon. F. Egerton, received orders to proceed to join the Baltic fleet, after ascertaining the truth or error of the report of a Russian steamer having been seen in the Murray Frith, near Inverness. The Tonning, having completed the embarkation of the horses she is to convey to the Mediterranean, was taken out of the basin yesterday, and remained at moor ings off Woolwich dockyard last night. The Morayshire, sailing horse transport-ship, was taken into the basin at Woolwich yesterday morning, and a detachment of the men and horses of Capt. Thomas's field battery were embarked at an early hour. She was taken out of the basin in the afternoon, and proceeded down the river to moorings off the Royal Arsenal, to remain there until the other detachments of the battery are embarked and ready for the voyage. The Moray shire is No. 13 of the horse transport-snips, The John Shepherd, No. 15, horse transport-ship, ar• rived at Woolwich yesterday afternoon from Defitford, and was immediately taken into the basin, to be ready to receive one of the detachments of Captain Thomas's field battery of Royal Artillery to-day. The Marquis of Lansdowne visited Woolwich dock- Lordyesy, during the time the horses of the staff of Raglan were embarking. His lordship was ac companied by Commodore Superintendent John Shep hard, and went over the Royal Albert, 131, to witness the advanced state that fine screw steam-ship is now in. She will be ready for launching by the end of the present month, by which time her engines of 500-horse power on Penn and Sons' patent trunk principle will be ready to put on board. The Princess Alice arrived at Woolwich yesterday, to be prepared to proceed to the Baltic. DEPARTURE OF MRS. CHISHOLM. SOUTHAMPTON, TUESDAT.—This indefatigable lady in the cause of emigration, paid this day a farewell visit to this port previous to her departure for Australia, which which shortly to take place. Her object in coming to Southampton is evidently two-fold—one being to inspect a piece of land which had been purchased by some of the leading merchants of the town for the purpose of erecting, in accordance with some previously stated opinions of Mrs. Chisholm's, a suitable and convenient place for the accommodation of emigrants and strangers, which shall be entitled upon its completion, "The Emi grant's and Stranger's Home." The spot selected is contiguous to both the docks and the railway, and is situated immediately at the rear of Canute-road. It is very spacious, and will enable a building to be erected capable of containing or accommodating 800 persons, with a large space in the centre for drying, &c, After viewing the large piece of land selected, Mrs. Chisholm, and several gentleman connected with the port, who wished to present her with an address previous to her departure, proceeded to a large room in the French warehouse, when several ladies and gentlemen assem bled. Mr. J. Lankester introduced the! business by -ome very appropriate remarks, and Mr. G. Drysdale read an address complimenting Mrs. Chisholm for her exertions in promoting a well-considered scheme of emigration. Upon receiving the address, Mrs. Chisholm made some appropriate remarks for the exhibition of good feeling which had been evinced towards her. She was highly gratified with the announcement which she had received of the purchase of the suitable piece of land which had been selected for the erection of an emigrants' home, and she was sure that those gentlemen would, if the affair was well managed, find their speculation a sure and pro fitable one. Without they hal a home of the description which was about to be erected in Southampton, she was sure that the port would not deserve that name which it was entitled to possess, and which would raise it far be yond the other ports with which England was sur rounded. It was the idea of many persons that in the freighting of vessels first-class passengers paid better than any other class. That was all very well ; first-class pas sengers, she was aware, paid to a certain extent very profitably ; but they insist not forget that first-class pas sengers were not the persons to freight ships. Ships were freighted by the mass, and it was the mass who paid the merchant. If they gave to the second-class passengers that proper and comfortable accommodation which was so anxiously looked for by them, the gen tlemen of Southampton would do more by such an act to benefit the position and increase the interests of the town than by any other. Her only object in not having previously chosen and advised South ampton as the port at which emigrants should take their departure, was the want of comfortable accommo dation for second-class passengers. When she first paid a visit to their port, she came into the town of a wet night at twelve o'clock, with twelve females under her charge, and it was with the greatest difficulty that she could procure proper and reasonable accommodation for the young women who accompanied her. After some more appropriate and feeling remarks for the cause of emigration, and the port of Southampton, as connected with its own more perfect development, Mrs. Chisholm retired amidst the cheers of her assembled friends. THE PRESTON STRIKE. PRESTON, Tuesday.—lncluding a balance in hand of 2331. the income of the power-loom weavers this week amounts to nearly 2,2501. The chief contributions were as follow :—Blackburn, 6001. ; Stockport, 2701. ; Ashton-under• Line, 1401. ; Hyde, 1401. ; Over-Dar wen, 1301. ; Oldham, 1001. ; Preston, 90/. ; Staley bridge, 56/. ; Church parish, 491. ; Accrington, 411. ; Great Harwood, 40/. ; Bolton, 40/. ; Droylesden, 35/. 10s. ; Burnley, 21/. Os. Bd. ; Heywood, 221. ; Padibam, 20/. ; Chorley, 20/. ; Clitheroe, 171. ; Gor ton, 161. ; Enfield, 151.55. The open-air meetings of the employed are not so numerously attended as they were when held in the town. These assemblies, however, are still characterised by their wonted enthusiasm. A meeting held yesterday afternoon at Fulwood was addressed by most of the delegates ; lir. Luke Wood, of Stockport, in the chair. Mr. GRIMSHAW spoke on the subject of co-operative self-employment, about which little has been said of late. We must commence working for ourselves (he remarked), and, when the manufacturers see our tall chimneys creeping up, they'll begin to look about them. We must erect another town in Lancashire, and we can do it in a very few months, If the people have only the will, the means are within their grasp. We can raise a town with as many mills as there are in Preston, and we'll call it " New Regenerated Preston." We can do this, and we'll emigrate, every man and woman out of Preston ; and of what value will their mills be then ? They are only valuable so long as you are here to work in them. Concentrate your funds ; drain every bank in the county where you have money ; build fac tories of your own, and then there'll be an end of cotton lord tyranny, oppression, and despotism. That being the case, I see no reason to be daunted at any termina tion of the struggle. I believe, under any circumstances, it will end in good. (Cheers.) Mr. COWELL again recommended arbitration as the best expedient that could be resorted to for the amicable settlement of this dispute. It was desirable it should be settled, because so many were sufferers who had no thing whatever to do with the affair. Look at the drapers (said the speaker). How many mill lasses have been into the drapers' shops for new dresses during the 'last 30 weeks ? How many young men have been to the tailors' for coats, waistcoats, and trousers within that period ? The tailors are telling a dismal tale ; in fact, the shock is being felt throughout the whole of Preston. And, yet, n otwithstandin g all the dist ress p reva ili n g at the present time, it would seem that the employers are determined to lay Preston prostrate at their feet rather than yield and concede to the factory operatives their just demand. Mr. Cowell concluded by referring to co operation as the only remedy for their grievances. The crowd pledged itself to continued firmness in the cause, and cheered lustily for the 10 per cent. SOUTH WALES (PEMBBOKE LINE) AND THE PENNAR DOCKS.—The contractors for the construction of the above works, Messrs. Wythes and Treadwell, are about to proceed with them with all speed. They have undertaken to have them finished by the close of next year, at a cost of 500,0001., this sum being advanced by the contractors, who have agreed to take the company's shares for the amount, the required land being purchased by the company. The large and maemificcnt docks at Pennar are to be pushed on without delay, and their completion and the railway will make the haven a most important one, as on the voyage home from New York Milford possesses twenty four hours' advantage over both Liverpool and South ampton, and is accessible at any state of the tide, and almost with any wind. On the main line the works from Haverfordwest to Neyland are being carried on with all expedition, as the . directors are anxious to open to the chores of the haven.

Indeed, they had been only 18 months at work, during the first three of which their business was merely nominal, so that they really obtained the large income they possessed in about 15 months, and they had every reason to expect that next year it would be very considerably increased. He be lieved that they were now fairly established, and that their expenditure, which had hitherto been large, would not only be reduced relatively in accordance with the amount of their business, but actually in amount. One disadvantage of a proprietary office was, that they had comparatively thin meetings of shareholders, but he prospects of the company. teno summer b y which arrangement twouldhey mightb conice haveto a i n the meeting course o f 11 : I o d im l n u der s to hear the progress making by the conclusion,com bo happy to hearas h e b saw is op i :N n i i o r . n N o n e i s t o h n e posi present,position Mr. NELSON said that the report laid before them that day sufficienctly evinced that a large business had been done. There were few instances of a new office making such rapid progress, and he could not look upon their prospects as other than of a most encouraging descrip tion. Mr. Knox havi ng a ll uded to their large expendi ture, he might b . e allowed t o repeat what he had said elsewhere, that it was better t• spend 10,0001. at once to obtain a large business than drag it over four or five years to obtain an equal amount of business•—all experi ence proving that the "slow and sure offices," as they were called, could not obtain a business under that amount. Of course, when he spoke of a large expendi ture, he meant that it should be also judicious, and that it was so in this case was shown by the large fruits it had borne. With regard to the extension of their loan business, he believed they could not do a better thing, The report was t a h s e it co w m a m s b u o n t i h ty then adopted, the dividend approved, commercially profitable and benefi c i a l to generally and the retiring directors re-elected. The same remuneration as last year was voted to the Mr. BEVAN remarked that the auditors had well earned t d o ir r e s c . tors, while 151. 15s. each were voted to the audi- the money, inasmuch as for several days they had been engaged in the office up to twelve o'clock at night investigating the accounts, and taking care every item in the balance-sheet was checked and proved. Mr. PRINSEP proposed a vote of thanks to the medi cal officers for the great care bestowed by them in se lecting healthy and sound lives. The success of their selections was shown in the few casualties which had attended the operations of the society. Mr. R. A. RIDDELL seconded the motion, and bore his personal testimony to the attention which the medi cal officers had devoted to the interests of the company. The motion was carried unanimously. _ _ _ Dr. SCANLAN returned thanks, and stated that the compliment was as much due to the medical referees in the country as to his colleagues in London. (Hear.) A vote of thanks was then unanimously passed to the chairman and directors for their past services. The CHAIRMAN, in acknowledging the compliment, assured the meeting that he had always taken a great interest in the welfare and proceedings of the company. lie spoke not only as chairman and a director, but as a shareholder and policyholder also, and to show the confidence which he had in the stability of the concern, he need only mention that he was insured with the company for the sum of 4,0001., and therefore the pro prietors might rest satisfied that in furthering their in terests he was only promoting his own. (Cheers.) A vote of thanks was then proposed to the country agents, which was responded to by Mr. Davies, of Man chester. Proposals for assurance were handed in from Oldham for 2,8501. ; Manchester, 2,722/. ; Bristol, 4,2001. ; Derby, 2,200/. ; and Birmingham, 4,400/. ; making a total of 16,372/. Mr. POOLE took the opportunity of passing a warm eulogium upon the business habits of their noble chair man. He was sure the company ought to be very much indebted to the gentlemen who had introduced him to them, for greater altitude for administrative detail could not be found more strongly developed in any gentleman in the city of London than it was in the noble lord, who had worked hard in the service of the company, and took care never to miss an opportunity of promoting its interests. Like the noble lord, he held 500 shares, be sides being insured in 'the company ; . and he should now be delighted to double his shares. (Hear, hear.) Mr. KNOX moved a vote of thanks to their worthy and indefatigable secretary, Mr. Bevan, and ob served that during the last twelve months the ze,l and energy of that gentleman ,in promoting the success of the company had been most untiring. His exertions were beyond all praise, and could not be too highly valued ; for however persevering the board of directors might be, it could do nothing without the assistance of an able secretary, who was the right band of the administra tion of the company. (Hear, hear.) Mr. Bevan had displayed wonderful knowledge and activity in establish ing country agencies, and to him more than any other man was due the credit of having brought the company to maturity. (Hear, hear.) Mr. POOLE had very great pleasure in seconding the motion, and agreed with the mover that the great busi ness which the company had done was attributable to the energy and activity of Mr. Bevan, whose readiness for work at all times was quite astonishing. (Hear.) Mr. Pareser hoped the meeting would consider that the motion was seconded by every member of the board. The services which Mr. Bevan had rendered the company were certainly most valuable, and not only the directors but the proprietors and policy-holders owed him a deep debt of gratitude. (Hear, hear.) The CHAIR3LtN, in putting the motion, said it was hardly possible to add another word in praise of Mr. Bevan ; but he yet thought it right to state that he con curred most heartily in every word which had fallen from his hon. colleagues. (Hear, hear.) The motion was carried by acclamation, a proprietor s w h i o s u h d n g b e t o p a r d e s d e , n b te y d w t a of oy Mr. Bevanrider, but, t aotn the s of 5 lO/. request of Mr. Bevan himself, the proposal was not perse vered in. Mr. BEVAN was exceedingly obliged to the proprietors for the kind manner in which they were pleased to ap preciate his services, and he declared that this flattering mark of their esteem and approval would be an addi tional inducement for him to go on extending the influ ence and operations of the company. (Loud cheers.) He hoped by this time next year the company would have doubled, if not quadrupled, its business, but of this the proprietors might rest satisfied, that it would neither be his fault nor yet that of the directors, if that result should not be attained. The interest of the shareholders was closely looked after by the directors ; so closely, in deed, that there was hardly a day in the week which had not its allotted board or committee meeting, and no opportunity for furthering the interest of the com pany was ever al:owed to escape the vigilance of the di rectors. (Hear, hear.) Again he thanked the meeting for the heartiness with which they had recognised his services, and he assured them that this remark of re spect came with the more pleasure now as to-day hap pened to be his birthday. (Hear, hear, and laughter.) This closed the business of the ordinary general meet ing. Viscount Drumlanrig being compelled to leave to at tend his duties at Buckingham Palace on the address from the Houses of Parliament being presented to her Majesty, the chair was taken by Mr. Prinsep. The noble Viscount retired from the room ;midst the echoing cheers of the assembled proprietors. The advertisement convening the extraordinary meet- ing was then read, after which, The CHAIRMAN reminded the proprietors that they had now to consider a most important subject, namely, that of increasing the capital of the company which was peculiarly a proprietor's question, but at the same time he was bound to state that the directors thought it was essential for the interest of the company that they should be armed with a lamer amount of capital than they could now command. They must either decline the loan business altogether, or haVe the means of increasing it. Well, then, it was proposed to increase the paid-up capital, by the issue of new shares, in preference to making calls upon the existing shares as they were created, for the purposes not of making loans,b t of se curing to the public a life guarantee fund. (Cheers.) The loan business was not onl rofitable inlaifecommercial point of view, but it served toe xtend the ' assurance p a l n i c y a t g i e r a n ns fordlance oan s connection of the company. The cow from 501. to 5001., and hithertothe app had averaged four a-week. The money advanced was amply secured, and repaid quarterly, and_ the securities b y a well•in_forme_d agent. They were investigated pretty well knew the value of each security before the money was advanced ; but in addition t o th e secu rity, the borrower generally insured his life for double, sometimes treble the amount borrow e d, an d t h erefore, a fter the loan w as repaid the company had still the advantage of the premiums on the policy. (Hear, hear.) There was very little risk about this descrip tion of business ; and, since it was profitable to the corn pang, and exceedingly beneficial to the shareholders, he had no hesitation in moving a resolution to double the a mount of capital, and to offer the new shares to the proprietors of original stock at par up to the 10th June, 1854, after which any remaining will be offered to the public at premium of not less than 2s. 6d. per share, at which price, it was stated, transfers of original stock had taken place. Mr. KNox seconded the resolution, and stated that it was the wish of the directors that these new shares should be distributed in small numbers of say 25 or 30 over the whole country, so as to increase the connection of the company. The shares would be offered at par in the first instance to the agents and existing shareholders, and then they would be issued to the general public at the discretion of the directors, leaving them to deter mine the number to be so issued, and the premium to be charged upon them. (Hear.) The resolution was then put and carried unanimously. Thanks were then voted to the chairman, and the meeting terminated.

The second annual general meeting of the proprietors of the Deposit and General Life Assurance Company was held on Monday at the head office of the Company, 18, New Bridge-street, the Right Hon. the Viscount Drumlanrig, Comptroller of her Majesty's household, and chairman of the board of directors, in the chair. The advertisement convening the meeting having been read by Mr. C. W. Bevan, the manager and secretary of the company, the directors' annual report was sub mitted to the meeting, as follows : " Your directors have much pleasure in again meeting the proprietors, and in presenting for their information and that of the policyholders, the highly gratifying report of the business transacted during the past year. The directors in their last report anticipated, from the large amount of business that had been transacted during the short period of six months, greater success than had attended most societies of a similar kind, and they consider that their expectations are fully borne out by the following compara tive statement of the business of the company up to the present date : "PROPOSALS RECEIVED. From Sept. 20th, 1852, to March 25th, 1853, a period of six months „ Marsh 25th,1853, to March 25th, 1854, a period of 12 months 342 assuring £151,867 2,127 „ £301,013 Total number of proposals re ceived in 18 months 2,469 assuring 2452,880 The number of policies issued from September 20, 1852, to March 25, 1853, a period of six months, averaging more than 3831. each, were 203, assuring 77,8611., and producing an annual income of 3,8281.165. sd. ; from March 25, 1853, to March 25, 1854, a period of 12 months, averaging 2461. each, 718 policies, assuring 177,4601., and producing an annual income of 6,1941. 13s. sd. There had been also 1,010 industrial policies under 501. assuring 20,4121., and pro ducing an annual income of 5191., making the total annual income of the company 10,5421. 9s. 10d. It will thus be seen that there has been a very marked progress in the business of this company, and your directors confidently appeal to the early history of other insurance companies to show that there have been few instances of so favourable a result. Next to the amount of business done, the nature of the business itself is of chief importance, and it is there fore matter of congratulation that there have been only three deaths during the past year, assured for the sum of 621/. 165., which is very much below the anticipated ave rage of mortality, and must clearly prove to the proprie tors that great care and attention have been bestowed by the medical officers in .the examination of lives. Your directors would now advert to two important sources for increasing the company's business, viz., the loan depart ment and the agency department. In reference to the former, the directors have much pleasure in stating that not a single loss has been sustained therein from the com mencement of the company, and that its results have been highly satisfactory, and amply repay the labour and care bestowed upon it. The directors, however, in calling the attention of the proprietors to this most important and pro fitable branch of the company's operations, have to state that, in the first establishment of the company, no such business was contemplated, and that the paid-up capital of 10,0001., which was only intended for a life guarantee fund in the earlier stage of the society's existence, and would been ample for that purpose, has been found inadequate for the full development of this branch of the company's business ; and as they consider it highly desirable to con tinue and extend so profitable a part of the business, they recommend the shareholders to create an additional capital 100,0001. by the issue of new shares, under the provisions of the company's deed of settlement. As regards the agency department, your directors have given their attention during the past year to the formation and consolidation of good agencies in some of the most important towns, and have every reason to be satisfied with their present effici ency. At Manchester, Oldham, Bristol, Leeds, Birming ham, and Northampton, the company's operations have been eminently successful, and have quite equalled the most sanguine expectations of your directors ; and they hope that, with increased exertions on their part, assisted by the cordial co-operation of both the proprietors and policy-holders, they will be enabled to lay before you at the next annual meeting a still more gratifying report. Your directors advert with pleasure to the increasing at tention which is daily bestowed on the subject of life assu rance by all classes of the c , mmunity. The Government has shown its estimate of its value as a social question, by the reduction of the duty formerly imposed upon policies to an amount so low that your directors have for some time past issued their policies free of stamp duty. Besides the reduc tion in the stamp duty, the Government has further shown its appreciation of the value of life assurance by allowing an abatement of duty on incomes in respect of annual premiums paid for insurances. The Government has also further decided, in proof of its anxiety to support the principles of life assurance, to appropriate the un claimed money accumulated in the post-office, amounting to 15,00i1., to the effecting policies of insurance on the lives of the officers of that national establishment. This company may now be considered fully established, and its expenses in future will bear a much smaller ratio to the amount of business transacted. A dividend, at the rate of five per cent. has been paid upon the capital stock of the company for the past year, iu conformity with the deed of settlement, and under the authority of Mr. Neison, the consulting actuary of the company. Your directors, in conclusion, desire to remind the shareholders that the success of the company may be greatly increased, and its operations extended, by the personal exertions of the shareholders themselves ; and they would, therefore, urge upon them to endeavour to make the company, and the advantages it affords, known among their friends and con nections ; and to show their own confidence in it by them selves assuring if not already assured." The CHAIRMAN moved the adoption of the report, which he thought clearly showed the position of the company, and must be satisfactory to every proprietor and policy holder. From all the reports he had seen he believed there was no young office which had made more rapid progress than this. Here, perhaps, he might be allowed to congratulate them that the young offices had, by the report of the committee of the House of Commons, been freed, in a great measure, from the suspicion and obloquy attached to them before the appointment of that committee. They now had an income of upwards of 10,000/. a-year, and had issued 1,921 policies—a number which had been much increased since the 25th of March. The nature and soundness of their business was shown by the fact that they had only had three deaths on po licies assuring 6211. He thought that a matter of con gratulation, as it showed how well the medical officers had done their duty. It was highly important, during the first two or three years of a company's existence, that the losses should be as light as possitle. He should, perhaps, also state that, since the 25th March, there had been another claim fall in of 5001., which was now under discussion. Next to their medical officers their agents were of the greatest importance, and though they had in the first instance had one rather troublesome agent— notwithstanding all his business had proved good—but now all their agents worked very satisfactorily with them. From Oldham alone they had received, in four months, 150 policies, averaging 2001. each. From Bris tol, where they had recently opened an office they had now an income of over 8001. a-year ;in Birmingham nearly 1,0001.; and Leeds over 1,000/.; indeed, a better agent than the gentleman at Leeds it would be impossi ble to obtain. The agents at Northampton and Man chester bad only been recently appointed, yet they were already making very satisfactory progress. The last part of the report to which he would allude was that in which it proposed to increase the capital, for the pur pose of carrying out, to a greater extent, their loan busi ness. When they first commenced business, they did not propose to enter into that branch of assurance, but they found it extremely profitable, as persons borrowing money always assured their lives to two or three times the extent of the amount of assurance. All their shares were disposed of, and the deposit of 10,0001. paid up. He held 500 himself, and if the shareholders sanctioned the creation of the new capital of 100,000/., of which 10,000 would be called up, he would be glad to double the number. (Cheers.) In conclusion, he begged to move the adoption of the report. Mr. PRINSEP, as one of the directors who had taken an active part in the management of the company, seconded the resolution, and warmly advocated the po licy of increasing the capital, as tending much to ex tend their business and connections. Mr. KNox, a director, wished to observe, in refer ence to the prospects the company had of increasing its business, that nearly hall their present policies had come from only four places, viz., Bristol, Oldham, Birming ham, and Leeds, and as soon their agencies in Liverpool, Manchester, and other large towns, were fully at work, there could be no doubt their business would be very mate rially increased. In looking over the accounts of other offices, he found that there was only one besides their own which made i return of an income of 10,00 Q?. at ---''‘, . ~ --~- ~,;:... T" CHOLER A!!!
