The Railway Share Market is very animated in .connection with the settlement, which commenced this morning and will conclude on Friday after noon. The scarcity of the more speculative stocks is very great, and as much as 18 per cent. per annum has been paid to defer the delivery of Metropolitan for a fortnight. Midland shares are also scarce. In proportion as railway stocks grow in disfavour, the Funds and Foreign Government Securities meet with increased demand. Consols are consequently higher than yesterday ; and in Foreign Stocks a substantial advance has been established in several of the more speculative de scriptions. The discount demand shows no change, in spite of the approach of the 4th of the month. The rate is still 11 to 1 per cent. The Corn Market is steady. Consols are extremely firm, at a further im provement of 1, at 931 to 93i for money and ac count; New and Reduced Three per Cents., 93} to 931; India Five per Cents., 112 to 1121 ; Bank Stock, 244 to 248 ; Exchequer Bills, 235. to 275. prem.

The affairs of Mr. Robert Hutchinson, who re cently failed in Liverpool for £200,000, and who was the paid director of , the Royal Bank, which suspended a few months ago, were again brought before the officials of the Liverpool Bankruptcy Court yesterday, but reporters were not admitted. At a meeting of the board of directors of the Electric and International Telegraph Company, held this day, it was resolved to recommend to the proprietors at the general meeting to be held at the Company's office, Telegraph street, Aborgate-street, on 'Wednesday, the sth day of February next, to confirm a dividend of £5 per cent. for the last half-year free of income-tax. CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. There were no bullion operations at the Bank of tngland yesterday. The Mexican dollars received by the Douro have been sold at an advance of id, the price obtained being 59d per ounce. The proposed dividend of the Colchester and Stour Valley Railway Company is at the rate of 3i per cent. per annum. The Albion Bank (Limited), have declared a din dead for the past half-year at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum. The Report of the Mediterranean Extension Tele graph Company has just been issued. It recommends the payment of a dividend of 8s per share on the preference, less income tax, and 33 per share, free of income tax, on the ordinary shares, and carries £576 to the reserve fund. 'The committee of the main line shareholders of the Chatham and Dover Railway Company have issued a report to their constituents recounting the legal steps taken last year to recover their object and their failure. The expenses incurred have absorbed the funds placed at their disposal, and as there are fur ther proceedings which the committee think likely to be advantageous, fresh contributions are solicited. The traffic receipts of the Grand Trunk Railway for the week ending the 11th inst., show an increase Of £683, and those of the Great Luxemburg for the Week ending the 26th inst., an increase of £BB3. The Master of the Rolls has made an order, on the Petition of debenture holders, for the winding up of the Pooley Hall Colliery Company (Limited), under the supervision of the court. Mr. F. Hunter, of tacup, and Mr. H. G. Nicholson, of Manchester, were appointed liquidators. The following is an extract from the Circular or Messrs. Henry Clews and Co., dated New York, Jan. 8, 1868 : " We have much pleasure in being able to congratulate nut friends upon an improved tone of business at the open ing of the year. In some quarters, there was a vague idea that 1867 was to be marked by a great panic ; and the failure of the event to respond to the expectation natu rally tends to relieve prevailing fears. The severe mone tary spasms of late months have left behind fewer traces of injury than might have been anticipated. The succession of small panics which distinguished 1867 are regarded less as the consequence of the present de ranged condition of affairs than as due to the arbitrary withdrawal of a large amount of the circulating medium ; and now that the Secretary of the Treasury has tem porarily suspended contraction, and Congress appears dis• Posed to repeal the authorisation for retiring the legal tender currency, it is felt that business is freed from its chief e mbarrassment ; and the tone of feeling, alike in trading and in financial circles, is comparatively buoyant. Capi talists, though by no means satisfied that the present con dition of affairs is incapable of improvement, are yet above everything desirous that, for a time, they may be e i xempted from• the unsettling effects of l eg i s l a ti ve rive in matters of finance and commerce. F or th e l ast r ive years their calculations have been constantly baffled by M odifications in the laws affecting banking, revenue, cur rency, and foreign commerce ; and after this protracted dis couragement, they are willing to forego the possible advan• tage of many supposed improvements on late legislation, in order that they may have stability in the conditions under Which they operate. Fortunately, the present indications encourage the expectation that, beyond a few changes ad• witted on all hands to be imperatively necessary, Congress will do little this session materially affecting the present situation of affairs ; and this consideration material!) , tends to encourage the revival of confidence."

SPECIAL CONSTABLES IN THE CITY.—It is under stood that notice has been given to the effect that the Lord Mayor does noc at present consider it necessary to con tinue the enrolment of special constables for the City, but should any occasion arise a special day will be appointed for that purpose. It may be added that the distribution of staves to those who have been already sworn in will be commenced immediately. ALTERATION IN THE NEW MAIL SERVICE. —The time-table originally prepared for the new postal service having proved in some respects unsatisfactory as regards the Australian mails, a now table, slightly altered, has been issued by the Peninsular and Oriental Company at the re quest of Government. Under the previous arrangement the inward Australian mail would have arrived three or four days after the despatch of the outward one, causing a delay of more than three weeks in answering the home ward letters. In order to obviate this, the second outward China mail under the new _contract, which would have been despatched on Friday, the 20th March, is postponed until Friday, the 27th. There will thus be an interval of three weeks instead of a fortnight between the two March mails for China, but after that they will leave London every alternate Friday, in accordance with the original scheme.—Lon ton and China Telegraph. PRESENTS TO SUIT EVERY PURPOSE, TASTE, AND POCKET AT PARKINS AND GOTTO'S.—Photographic Albums a choice of 3,000; despatch boxes, writing cases, dressing cases, travelling bags, envelope cases, blotting books, ink stands, desks, book slides, work boxes, tea caddies, hand bags and reticules, card cases, purses, stationery cabini3ts, scent bottles, albums for postage stamps, crests, &c.; cigar cases, card baskets, pocket books, electro-gilt and elegantly mounted articles. Bibles, Prayer-books, and Church Ser• vices, in every type. Parkins and Gotto, 25, Oxford street. Thousands of the above articles, all perfectly new and fresh, consequent upon a rapid sale.—auvT.) CAMBRIDGESHIRE AND ISLE OF ELY AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY. — The annual meeting of this society was held on Monday, at Cambridge. Lord Royston, M.P., occupied the chair. The Duke of Rutland was elected president for the year; and Colonel Duncornbe, S. Newton, and H. Thurnall, Esqs., vice-presidents. The report spoke of the success which attended the show held at Wisbech last year, and that there was now a balance in favour of the society of £43 6s 10d, while the arrears were £99 12s. It was agreed that the next annual show of the society should be held at Newmarket, in July, the day to be fixed upon at a future meeting. BIIEACEI OF PROMISE OF MARRIAGE —DAMAGES £l,2oo.—An action for breach of promise of marriage, in which the Hon. William Bruce Ogilvy, residing at Cowden u H g o h u , s r e e , si P d e ing Perthshire, was dore t f h en .w da te n s t ler a n nd Miss_ Fanny Hotel, Stafford, was pursuer, was tried before Lord Barcap l e and a jury, in the Court of Session, at Edinburgh, yesterday. The pursuer is daughter of the late Ben jamin Pugh, of Treberth, Pembrokeshire, gentleman farmer, and twenty-seven years of age. In 1865 she was managing the Crewe Arms Hotel, at Crewe, when the defender became acquainted with her, and, as the alleged, not only promised marriage, but wrote to Mr. Halsey, in whose employment she then was, a letter announcing that he was to be married to Miss Pugh, and that he hoped he would be able to dispense with her services under the usual month's warning. The defender subsequently broke off the engagement, and in 1866 married Sarah Boyden, daughter of the late .Henry Boyden, of Bir mingham, pew-opener at the Jewish Synagogue. Damages were laid at £5,000 ; the jury returned a verdict for £1,200. COMMITTAL OF PRECOCIOUS CRIMINALS.—On Satur day a sum of about £24 was stolen from a butcher's shop at Castletown, Stafford, under extraordinary circumstances. It seems that during the morning the manager hung up his coat in the shop, there being in one of the pockets a bag containing the sum in ques tion. Shortly afterwards the bag was found to have been stolen. In the course of Sunday nine lads (eight of whom are under thirteen years of age, and one or more only eight years old), a young girl of fourteen, and her mother, were apprehended upon suspicion of being concerned in the theft. The accused were brought before the magistrates yesterday, when it was shown that two of the lads, Thomas Emery and John Keeling, were in the shop on the day named, and stole the money bag. The whole of the prisoners were proved to have been at various public-houses together on Saturday night and Sunday morning, and to have been served with brandy and other drinks. They also amused themselves by gambling. The children next visited the house of the elder female prisoner, where they again engaged in drinking and gambling, and one of the lads was seen to give the woman, whose name is Jane Kelly, some money. The pri soners, with the exception of one of the lads, were committed for trial. Upon the delinquents being handed into the prison van, they were loudly cheered by the rabble congregated. MR. MILNER GIBSON AND HIS CONSTITUENTS.-- The Right Hon. Milner Gibson addressed a large meeting of his constituents at Ashton last night, the Mayor presiding. The right hon. gentleman expressed his views on all the prominent topics of the day, his speech occupying an hour and a half. He believed our -commercial difficulties were but temporary, and attributed them in part to our neglect to stipulate for free exchange in our colonies when we granted them self-government. He feared the new Confederation would extend the Canadian protective duties to the adjacent colonies. Referring to Reform, Mr. Gibson characterised personal rating as a delusive attempt at restriction—the £l2 county franchise to a limit that could not be maintained ; and the minority vote an unconstitutional innovation which he hoped would speedily be removed. After advocating the ballot as urgently required, he proceeded to review the education questions, and expressed his desire to co-operate with Mr. Bruce, preferring for his own part a rating system and secular schools. Respecting Irish affairs, he would favour a closer union than ever with England. He would abolish the useless vice-royalty. He deplored the un due ascendancy of classes in Ireland, and regarded Fenianism as the bitter fruit of-Irish misgovernment, and of our mistaken course during the American war. He believed the Alabama controversy would be re served for settlement by a new government both in su A on m rfse e it r nt i e c or a etfid a e nd be.y tThe le pastrEngland,igh utterances h o w on. would n ot b lfe e t ha n ne p i le rr d epe g re e e : dy l ee c a de n s d a. itAuilnous vote of confidence. .

The crew, consisting of five hands, were most gallantly saved by the Coast Guard and Dunwich Life-saving Company, who succeeded, after once filling the boat belonging to the fisherman, in going off and taking the whole of the crew from the rigging in an exhausted state, and landing them safe at Dunwich The 121 b. rocket acted well, but the wreck was too far off for the rocket to roach her. I sent for the lifeboat at Thorpuesa, but he did not urriTo in time." NI 1 107 j 7 61 7j The ATTORNEY-GENERAL to-day showed cause against the rule obtained by Mr. Coleridge calling upon the Crown to show cause why the trial of the three defendants should not take place at the Cen tral Criminal Court, and not as was now the wish of the Crown at Warwick. The learned gentleman proceeded to show that the present arrangements would best suit the convenience of all parties, and more particularly so as the technical grounds would best be argued at Warwick. He was not disposed to absolutely object to the removal of the trial to London, but he could not assent to that proposal if it was supposed or alleged that a perfectly fair and impartial trial could not be had at Warwick. The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE said one of the prisoners (Casey) stated that he had twenty witnesses to call, most of whom were resident in Inndou. The , ATTORNEY-GENERAL said he should object to the trial of any one of the three prisoners singly in London. Casey alleged that he intended to call twenty witnesses, but he did not state the name of a single one. Mr. COLERIDGE, in support of the rule, said he never intended it to be thought that a perfectly fair trial could not be had in Warwick. He then referred to the trial of Mr. Hunt, and said the result of the trial of these three pri soners was far beyond a conviction in their case, supposing it was to take place. The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE, after referring with the other judges, said the Court was of opinion that the rule must be made absolute. Under all the circumstances, considering that the attoruies for the prisoners resided in London, and it would be a great expence for them to have to incur, especially as it would be necessary for those gentlemen to be in frequent communication ti with their clients. The witnesses were mostly resident in London, and as the removal of the trial was not strongly objected to by the Attorney-General, the court thought the Central Criminal Court would the best place for the trial to take place. The Court would there fore make an order for the remission of the indict ment against the prisoners,when found at War wick,to London for trial. In making these observations the Court was not at all acting on the supposition that a fair trial could not be had at Warwick. The other learned judges on the bench, Justices Shee, Blackburn, and Lush, were of the same opinion. ACCEPTANCES FOR THE SPRING HANDICAPS. LIVERPOOL GRAND NATIONAL STEEPLE- CHASE. WEDNESDAY, March 4.

IWCABE v. RUBINL This action came on for trial to-day before Mr. Justice Byles in the Court of Common Pleas. It was to recover the balance of an account which had arisen between the two public entertainers during the tenantry by the latter of one of the minor rooms of the Egyptian-hall, of which the plaintiff was lessee. The amount in question was £22 10s. Frederik M'Cabe said---,ln the mouth of De cember Philip Rubini made an arrangement to take the minor Egyptian-ball, of which he (M'Cabe) was lessee, at the rate of £5O a-month, and commenced his performance on the 2d of October. He con tinued to do so for a fortnight, when matters turned out somewhat non'-successful. He (M'Cabe) told Rubini the arrangiment must end; but being de sirous, as Rubini was a young entertainer, he after wards agreed to take .112 10s. per week, he (Ru bini) undertaking to meet the current expenses of the week. It was arranged that the first money taken nightly at the dours should go in redemption of rent and arrears, and that the p ro fi t, if any, was to go to Rubini. This arrangeme n t continued until the 7th of November, when he (M'Cabe) gave Rubini notice to quit. At that time the sum owing was £22 16s. Mr. Sutton, Mr, M'Cabe's acting manager, proved the defendant entering into au arrangement to pay £l2los. a week as rent for the room, together with £5 weekly iu redemption of the former loss, and that he (Rubini) was to pay the gas bill, &c. On the 9th Nov., how ever, Rubini received notice to quit, when he turned Mr. M'Cabe's money-taker out of the box by force, and took the money paid at the doors himself. (Laughter.) At the time Rubini' quitted the Egyptian Hall there was a sum of 522 10s. due for rent, and that was the sum the recovery of which was now sought. Mr. Hershall, for the defendant, contended that the action was brought for the recovery of " rent," and had been deducted every week from the re ceipts, and he contended that the plaintiff could not recover the £22 claimed as the balance due under the old agreement. There was a debt also due to the amount of £l9 for printing still remaining un paid, which was incurred during the first arrange ment. The Judge thought the better way was for Mr. M'Cabe to discharge that Lill, and then he advised the jury to give a verdict in his favour for £l5. This, however, was objected to by the other side, and the whole matter then went to the jury. Mr. lierschell said it was represented to the de fendant that a sum of money belonging to both parties had b een expended, and his client (Rubini) wished to see the vouchers. lie did not deny that he was indebted to plaintiff, but he said it was not to the extent sought by his action. The jury gave a verdict for the plaintiff for £8 13s. 6d. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT—(This Day.) (Before Mr. Justice Shee.) THE MURDER IN LAMBETH. Thomas Clark, .27, labourer,,, who had pleaded guilty at the last session to the . i wilful murder of a child named Alice Smith, was placed at the bar to receive judgment. The prisoner was then formally called upon to state whether he had anything to say why judg ment of death should not be passedupon him. He made no reply. The learned judge then assumed the black cap, and passed sentence of death in the usual form. CHARGE OF MANSLAUGHTER. Thomas Wagstaffe, and Mary Andrews Wag staffe, his wife, surrendered to take their trial for the manslaughter of Lois Wagstaff°. Sevaral witnesses having been examined, the jury, after a short deliberation, returned a verdict of not / guilty. TURKEY AND CRETE.—The new plan of adminis trative and judiciary regulations which the Porte proposes to establish in Crete is thus summed up by the Vienna Correspondence:—" The island shall in future be divided into five departments—Canea, Sphakia, Retimo, Candle, and Lassitha—and into 20 districts, each subdivided into communes. The governors and under-governors, Chris tians or Turks, shall be appointed by the Porte. A go vernor general will administer the affairs of the island, with the assistance of a council and of two councillors, one Christian and the other Mahometan. The residence of the Governor General will be at Canea. E very Ch r i st i an governor will have a Mussulman deputy, and reciprocally. The council will be composed of—besides the two coun cillors—appointed functionaries, of archbishops, and of six elected members, three Christians and three Turkt.

MILE MATCLI FOR £2O AT BIRMINGIIASI.-011 Satur day last the Brutus turned out in shoals to witness a match of considerable interest between Mr. C. Wyvill's black pony Little Wonder, 12 hands lin.—a beautifully developed animal—and Mr. George Book's brown cob, 14 hands, fur £lO a-side. The course was from the fourth to the third milestone homewards on the Walsall road; time, two o'clock, prompt. At 2.15 they appeared on the score, both being ridden—the pony by young Johnson, a very " jock ;" the cob by "Boa," well known in trotting circles. They were at once despatched, the little-'nn getting off best, and retaining the lead at a slashing pace for some 300 yards, when a length of stony ground upset his calculation; and to avoid the same he swerved right across the road, thus giving a❑ advantage to his opponent, which was at once accepted, but, the pace being too much forced, the cob broke into a gallop, which was continued almost uninter raptedly to nearly half distance. At that point the pony, being called on, spurted beautifully forward, and soon passed the cob, gradually increasing the distance between their, and eventually winning by about 30 yards, which might have been considerably more had not a "horsy" character, in the most unsportsmanlike manner, attempted to ride the gallant little thing down. Time, 3 min.l3 sec. Mr. W. Martin, Duke of Cambridge, Great King-street, acted in a most satisfactory manner as referee. A consi derable sum was invested at 30 to 20 on the little 'un, but while on the score even money was laid. STATE OF TRADE. MANCHESTER, Jan. 28.—The market for shipping yarns has to-day assumed a much quieter tone. At the same time it closes strong and steady in price. Spinners, and more particularly those who make the better class of yarns, are well under contract for some weeks to come, and do not look forward to lower prices. In yarns for the home trade full prices are asked to-day, but after the large business re cently done and the contracts placed for future de livery buyers are more disposed to reduce their en gagements than to enter into fresh ones. There has not, therefore, baen a large business effected to-day in this class of spinnings. In cloth a large business was done to order last week, and India and China shirtings especially continued in good demand. The prices of these goods were well sustained, and a very much larger amount of business was only prevented by the higher quotations named by makers, who being now pretty well under contract, are not anxious to put down further orders, except at rates which they feel pretty confident ought to cover all contingen cies, whether from the advance of cotton or any other change of the conditions now affecting the Lade. This week the market has opened rather quietly, buyers having no doubt in a great measure covered their wants, and being unwilling to follow the further advance which any continued display of activity might occasion. To-day, though the cloth market is exceedingly firm, the amount of business has been by no means large. There have been no new commercial advices to hand during the day to influence the market in any way. Print ing cloths are in good demand, and realise an advance proportionate to that on shirt. inas. In 44-inch mulls, a l so , a good a busi ness has been done, but makers find it difficult to get for these goods the advance which the high price of suitable yarns should entitle them to. The finer classes of mulls, as well as most sorts of jacconets, are in less demand than they have been for some weeks past. Mexican T-cloths are firm, and the better makes engaged, but the contracts do not ex tend, like those for shirtings and some other Eastern fabrics, into April and May. Shirtings are quoted 13d. per 71b., and 13id. for 81b. and Bflb. The home trade were doing rather more business last week, but business has been quieter in this branch of the market to-day as well as others. Messrs. John Slagg and Co. report of this day's cloth-mar ket :—" Up to the close of this week we had a good demand, at well-sustained rates. As buyers have now satisfied their present requirements, we find less anxiety for business, and close to- day with firm prices, but limited transactions." LEEDS, 28th.—The cloth-halls to-day have been but thinly attended, and the chief operations were in union coatings and tweeds. Some buyers from Bradford and Huddersfield took some fair parcels, the former for exportation. The market for tweeds is much deficient as compared with last year, espe cially as regards the superior qualities. Orders are slacker in this department than manufacturers have known them to be for a long time past. This may be owing to the success with which the cotton warp goods are finished. In plain cloths there is the same flatness as has been noticed on former oc casions ; and all wool superfines only meet with occasional purchasers. llairlists of the best kind have been more saleable in the white cloth-hall than any other w'oillen goods. Prices of all fabrics keep steady. CARDIFF, 2 7m.--Shipments of steam coal slightly increased during the latter part of last week, but the trade is at present somewhat quieter. This is mainly owing to the unfavourable weather, which has prevented the arrival of a large amount of ton nage. The principal clearances have been to the East, and it is highly probable that inquiries from that quarter will shortly become more numerous, the demand for coal at the mail packet stations having of late been greater than the supply. trance has not diminished her purchases, and there is every prospect of her continuing a good customer. r the av e b es lnquiries tehen fr for a house em some of the Mediterranean ports are more numerous, c a o n n d s fdreeriagbhltes time.a thanrefir p m a er iness c characterises c coal trade, and freights are low. It is generally believed that the colliers employed in the house coal pits will accept the proposedreduction of wades, but it is not quite clear what action the steam coal men will take, and mass meetings are to be held this week in order to arrive at a decision. At the ironworks there is no favourable change to note, aud, irrespective of carrying out the drop, a number of additional hands have been discharged, which causes much distress to be experienced among the working classes. Tin plates are a shade firmer. 'Oreian Alan racget Lust MAILS DUE. Australia and New Zealand, via Bouthampton Feb. 10. Ditto, via Marseilles Feb. 13. Ditto, via Panama .•••• ...Jah.
