The following report was presented : The Directors have the pleasure of submitting to the Share holders a statement of the affairs of the Company, on 31st December last, together with an abstract of the profit and loss account, which shows a net profit of 7,7661. 14s. 10d. after the payment of current expenses, and providing for bad and doubtful debts. Th.) Directors recommend that a dividend of three shillings Per share on the original shares, with a proportionate divi• dead. of threepence per share on the deposit upon tie new shares, together amounting to 6,3761. 6s. 3d., be declared, and the balance, 1,3901. 9s. 7d,, be carried forward to next iteeou,ut. ' It'ie : suggested that the liquidation. of the ,preli minary expenses shall be spread over a series of years; no appropriation towards them is proposed at this early period, but they have been held in view in the amount of the balance to be carried over. The Directors have to express to the Shareholders their satisfaction with the progress of the business, the bills dis counted to 31st December having amounted to 5,926,413/. , 16s. Id., and the number of accounts opened being 845. The resifts would have been still more favourable but for the sud den. advance in the rate of interest in October and the great scarcity of money which has since prevailed. It must also be kept in mind that the growth of every business is gradual, ' anct the forming a connexion a work of time, while the ex- Penises of an efficient establishment aro immediate, yet indis- Pentsable. The capabilities of the office have been necessarily adapted to transactions of a much greater extent, but as the bu.sdness increases the expenses will each year become a com- Paratively lighter burden on the profits. Besides tho difficulties incident to every new undertaking, the. Directors have had to encounter those peculiar to, and contsequent upon, this Company being the first formed for !al Tying on larg e mone t ary opera ti ons un d er th e Li m it e d Lia bility Act; but they believe an opinion is gaining ground— lAlch an examination of the List of Shareholders is well cal ,lllated to strength en —th a t th e new l aw of Li m i te d Li a bili ty, bT attracting a superior class of Proprietors, and through the odium of a large subscribed capital, will afford to the public a degree of security which recent events have shown not to aye been always insured by the old law. The Direetors are glad to have the opportunity of confirm thehigh opinion th e y h ave a l rea d y expressed of the ability lH sid knowledge of the managers, and of bearing testimony to the efficiency of the secretary and the other officers. The Offices at present occupied by the Company, though nAleiently central, are most inconvenient, and the access to rein has been muc h comp l a i ne d o f ; b ut th e Di rectors are in being able to announce that, after several protracted and ineffectual negotiations, they have at length secured a rnorit eligible sae in Cornhill, on which they propose to erect a twailding which will afford suitable accommodation for the bus thess of the Company.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCFI. SIR HENRY MEUX, BART., V. QUARTERMAINE-HORSE CASE. This was an action for the breach of a warranty of a horse. Sir F. Thesiger and Mr. Denman were for the plain tiff, and Mr. E. James and another learned gentleman for the defendant. The plaintiff was Sir Henry Meux, Bart., M.P. for Hertfordshire ; and the defendant, Mr. Quartermaine, was a horse•dealer, carrying on business in Piccadilly. The case for plaintiff was that in March last he went to the defendant's stables with the intention of purchasing a riding horse for his wife. He was shown one which he and he offered to give 1001. for it, subject to Lady I,leux's approval. On a subsequent day she went to see the horse, but she thought it was lame, and did not like its action when trotted nut. Sir Henry wrote to the d-- fondant to this effect, and added that he considered he ought to have a better hone for the money. The defen dant replied by letter, offering to exchange the horse for any other in his possession. some further correspon dence then passed between the parties, in the course of which the defendant insisted upon the sale hating been absolute. At length the plaintiff agreed to buy another horse for 1701., on the defendant representing that it was sound in all respects, and was rising six years old, and immediately after the purchase the plaintiff had the borne exercised in Rotten-row, and then sent it to a veterinary surgeon named Fi(l.l for examination. According to the judgment of Field the horse was un sound, and rising r,ine instead of six years, and he fur nished the plaintiff with a certificate to that effect. Sir Henry forwarded the certificate to the defendant, and intimated his intention to return the animal. The de fendant denied its accuracy, and alleged that the horse bad been injured by the ill-usage of the plaintiff's g►oom, who, be Faid, had galloped it too fast, and he positively declined to take it back. The plaintiff, however, or dered his man to deliver the horse to Mr. Quartermaine, but, on reaching the stables, the gates were shut against him, and the horse was r.ot allowed to enter the yard. The horse was sold by the plaintiff, at Tattersall's, shortly afterward•, and only brought 371. 4s. 6d., the purchaser being Mr. Quartermaine himself. Sir Henry and Lady Meux, and other witnesses, were examined in support of the plaintiff's case. The defence was that no express warranty was given with the horse, and that it was perfectly sound at the time of the sale. The evidence, as in most horse cases, was ex , remely conflicting. The jury retired to consider their verdict, and after being absent some time returned into court with a verdict for the plaintiff—damages 150/. From the London Gazette of Last Night,.

JONES-ASSAULT AND DATTERY. This was an action for breaking into and entering the plaintiff's dwelling, for assault and battery, and also for money due to the plaintiff and his wife for services ren. dered to the defendant. Mr. E. James and Mr. Prentice appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Sergeant Shea for the defendant. From the opening statement of counsel and the evi dence it appeared that the plaidtiff, Wen. George, was a young man who had been brought up to the medical profession, and that the defendant, Dr. Griffith Jones, held himself out to the world as a hydro-homoaopa.thic doctor, and was the proprietor and seller of a patent medicine called . "Baron Souville's Axtra Mankaz," which he advertised as a cure for constipation and various other diseases, and as an agreeable substitute for cod liver oil, and which, it seemed, consisted of various fari naceous ingredients. The defendant took premises in 1853 at 496, New Oxford-stre,t, for the sale of this ar ticle, and employed the plaintiff to manage the business and to lecture upon the virtues of the medicine, giving him a salary of 61. a-week and apartments in the upper portion of the house to reside in. The speculation, how ever, did not succeed, and in May, 1856. the defendant resolved to shut up the shop, and requested the plaintiff to quit his apartments, but he declined to do so until he obtained lodgings elsewhere, and he made a demand of 15/. for the services of himself and wife, as well as 20/. as compensation for the loss he had sustained in conse quence of his dismissal. He also insisted upon having au acknowledgment of 1001., which he alleged the de fendant had borrowed upon a policy upon his (the plain tiff 's) life. To these demands the plaintiff received no reply; but a few days afterwards a party of about a dozen men, aimed with the authority of Dr. Jones, as well as with various instruments, forced their way into the rooms of the plaintiff, and endeavoured to turn him and his wife out. He resisted, and was roughly used in the struggle ; but the cries of himself and his wife, who was enceinte at the time, brought the police, whose remonstrances, and the plain tiff's promise to leave next day, induced the men to de sist from their attempt, but not until he had received some severe blows and contusions, and, according to his own account, been nearly strangled. In cross-examination the plaintiff said about 12 years ago he was an upholsterer and cabinetmaker. Before he entered the defendant's service he kept a chemist's shop at Pentonville for about two years, but he had not been brought up as a chemist. Lord Campbell inquired if he sold poisons ? Witness—l sold mineral compound and vegetable poisons. In answer to further questions by the defendant's counsel, he said he had never been educated as a practi cal chemist, but he had received an education from a celebrated man in America, Dr. Beech, who formerly kept a chemical school in Kennington-lane, Lambeth. A large parchment skin was handed to the plaintiff by his counsel, who asked him if it were not his diploma. He replied in the affirmative, and said he had obtained it through Dr. Beech. The document, the size of which occasioned some laughter in the court, was examined and read over aloud by the learned judge. It purported to emanate from the "Reformed Medical Society of the United States," at New York, and certified that, on examination, the plaintiff had exhibited satisfactory evidence of his quali fications in the various branches of medicine on the re formed system, and gave him authority to practise the various branches of the healing art in the United States. In answer to Lord Campbell, the plaintiff said he had never been in any part of the States. Some other evidence as to the assault having been adduoed, Lord Campbell expressed his opinion that the trespass had been clearly proved. No evidence was given on the part of the defendant, and Mr. Sergeant Shee addressed the jury in mitigation of damages. The jury found a verdict for the plaintiff, with 35/, damages, for the trespass and assault, and 15/, for the services of the plaintiff and his wife. [PRIOR 40. STAMPED SP. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT.—.Feb• 6. OLD COURT. (Before Mr. Baron Bramwell.) Martha Rebecca Jokes, 30, a poor destitute-looking creature, was indicted for the capital offence of adminis tering poison to her child, William Jukes, with intent to narder_him. It appeared that the prisoner formerly lived at Step ney with her husband, and a short time hack she went to Yarmouth for the purpose of burying her father, and upon her return she found that her husband, during her absence, had destroyed himself, and she was left with her child in a most destitute and miserable condi tion. She for seine time 'vainly endeavoured to sup port herself and child by needlework, but finding that she was unable to do so, it appeared that she purchased some laudanum at a chemist's, and in a fit of desperation she took a quantity of it hersel.; and administered the remainder to her child, and both their lives were in con sequence nearly sacrificed. The prisoner, after commit ting the act, said that her object was that she and her child should go to Heaven together. The jury, after a short deliberation, said that they were of opinion -that the prisoner committed the act while labouring under temporary insanity, produced by the circumstances iu which she had been placed. Mr. Baron Bramwell said that this amounted to a verdict of acquittal on the ground of insanity, and be ordered the prisoner to be detained during her Majesty's pleasure. William Gaylor surrendered for the parpdse of receiv ing the judgment of the Court. The Prisoner; it will be remembered, was convicted two, or three Atstone hock of 'acttninistering .poisonous ingredient to his wife ior the purpose of procuring a mis carriage, but a point of law was reserved for the consi deration of the Court of Criminal Appeal as to the pro priety of the verdict, there being some peculiar circum stances in the case. The conviction has since been con firmed, and the pri3ener, who was admitted to bail, was therefore ca led up for judgment. Mr. Baron BaunWell said he was directed by the learned judge who tried the prisoner to state that, under the peculiar circumstances of the case, he considered the purposes of justice woul i be answered in this par ticular case by a sentence of one month's imprisonment with hard labour, and he now, therefore, passed that sentence upon him. Henry Holding, 19, was charged with committing an assault of an atrocious character upon Wm. Smith. Mr. Cearteen prosecuted. The prosecutor was a lad 15 years old, who stated that he was by birth an Americas, and that at the time the offence was committed ho was on his way to Liverpool to seek a ship, and he said that he met the prisoner and walked with. Lim as far as Barnet, and in a field in the neighbourhood of that town he represented that the mat ter occurred which was the subject of inquiry. His statement was confirmed apparently in some particulars, and the jury, after a little deliberation, returned a ver dict of guilty. Mr. thron Bramwell thereupon ordered sentence of death to be recorded, but he evidently felt that there was cons;derable doubt as to whether the prosecutor was tell ing the truth, and he directed the officer to go with him to one or two places where he represented he had been on the night previous to the occurrence, and make in quiries, and they left the court for that purpose. Shortly afterwards the constable returned, and stated that as he was going along with the boy Smith in a cab to make the necessaiy inquiries he told him it was of no use to proceed any further, as he had not told the truth in the matters that were to be inquired into, and he therefore brought him back, to await tho instructions of the Court. Some discussion then took place as to what course should be taken under these circumstances, and even tualy Mr. Baron Bramwell direoted the prisoner to be brought back, and he asked the jury to reconsider their verdict, and they almost immediately returned a verdict of not guil.y. The learned Judge then ordered the boy Smith into custody, with a view, if the facts should admit of that course being adopted, that a prosecution for perjury should be preferred against him. NEW COURT. (Before the Recorder.) Robert Hunt, 54, agent, was indicted for feloniously receiving 1041 b. of bil!1 - , valued at 1281., the property of Henry Wi liatn Eaton, knowing it to have been stolen. The jury returned a verdict of not guilty. POLICE INTELLIGENCE—Feb. 6. MANSION-FlOUSE.—Joseph Hawesr, a respectable-looking man of about 50 years of age, was brought before the Lord Mayor upon a warrant which charged him with having feloniously forged and uttered a receipt for 2901., with intent to defraud the Poor Law Guardians of the City of London Union. Tne prisoner bad acted as clerk to John Paul, late as sistant-clerk to the City Poor Law Union, who lately underwent several examinations at this court upon charges of extensive fraud and forgery, and who was on. Thursday tried at the Central Criminal Comb, and sen tenced to be transported for 14 years. Mr. George Hooper said—l am one of the assistant clerks to the City of London Union, 51, St. Mary-axe. I know a person named John Paul, who was formerly in the service of the union as assistant-clerk. The pri soner was engaged by Paul, and attended at the union as his clerk or as.-Astant. las assistant-clerk was fre quently in the habit of seeing him write, and thus be came acquainted with his handwriting. The receipt shown me for the sum of 290/. I believe to be in the prisoner's handwriting. Mr. Tomlins-1 admit it to be the prisoner's hand writing, and he will presently make an explanation of how he came to write it ; but it is necessary for the pro secution to show the felonious intent. The Lord Mayor—As the matter stands at present it is a clear case of forgery. Ilere is a document written by the prisoner, whose name is Hawes, and to it he forges the name of " Crosoor." Kir. Tomlins—Will your lordship admit him to bail ! The Lord Mayor—No, I shall not do that. When complete I shall send the case for trial. The prisoner was then remanded. BOW-STREET.--A. letter-carrier in the Sidmouth street district, named George Ferrers, who has been 13 years in the service, was charged with stealing a letter containing a half-sovereign, a sixpencb, and six postage stamps. The prisoner, who made no defence, was committed for trial. THA ALLEGED POISONING OF MRS.' BACON AT STAMFORD. The readers of The Sun are aware that, during the investigation incident to the murders at Watworth, cir cumstanees transpired tending to excite suspicion that Ann Bacon (mother of the prisoner, Thomas Fuller Bacon), who died at Stamford in May, 1855, was poison ed by the administration of arsenic. In consequence of this, after communicating with the authorities of Stam ford, the Home Secretary issued orders for the exhuma tion of the body of the deceased, who was interred at Great Casterton, a small village in the county of Rut land, about tiro miles from Stamford. Professor Taylor, who had been directed to superintend the exhumation, proceeded to Stamford for that purpose, and arrived there at 10 o'clock on Thursday night. At 11 o'clsck yesterday moriiingThr. Taylor proceed ed to Great Casterton, accompanied by Mr. M. W. Jackson, surgeon, of Stamford, by whom the body was to be opened under the Professor's supervision. Mean while a respectable jury, composed principally of farmers, had been empanelled at the Plough Inn. On the arrival of Dr. Taylor, _ _ _ The coroner (Ur. Hough, of Oakham) briefly charged the jury, and at the close of the coroner's address, Dr. Taylor suggested that the jury should go to the grave where the body was interred, in order that they might see it taken up. The coroner, jury, and medical gentlemen then h prr needed to the churchyard. In the meantime t the graveeo'clock bad been opened and the coffin laid bare.

On Sunday night, the 13th two days before Mrs. Bacon died, Thos. enjoyedo that May, ay deceased lesxsc 5, Fuller Bacon came to my house, and said the old lady (meaning his mother) was very bad, and that she would die, and that I must go directly an d remain with her all night. I followed him to his mother's house about five minutes afterwards. Oa arriving there I found Mrs. - Bacon in bed. Mr. and Mrs. Bacon and Thomas Fuller Bacon were with her. William Bacon is another son of the deceased, and brother to T. F. Bacon. I asked de ceased if she was ill—if her head was bad, and she replied that ehe was " bad all over.'' I remained all night with the deceased. She was sick twice—once shortly after I got there, and then again between 10 and 11 o'clock.

She added that she was removed to her own house in a sedan between 5 and 6 o'clock the same evening. Deceased was very thirsty during the night, and was stiff ..: over. Whenever I asked her where her hurt was 513 , repeated that she was ill all over. I asked her if she had ever been taken so before, and she said she bad not. She complained of her feet being cold, and I appl;ect warm water in bottles. She did not complain of cramps Her son Thomas had a key of the outer door, and carne in three times in the course of the night. He asked how his mother was, and app eare d very anxious. I remained with Mrs. Bacon until 9 o'clock on Monday night. She was a great deal better during the day, a r n u d p he a r ta s i z William and his wife had t ea with her Thomas Bacon and his wife also were backwards and forwards at the house several times during the day, and he seemed anxious and always inquired about his mother. I left deceased about 9 o'clock on Monday night in the care of Mrs. Blake. Between 5 and 6 o'clock on tha following morning (Taesday)T. F. Bacon came and called me up. He said, "The ol t lady's worse; and she'll die now." He waited unt 1 I got down, and then went for Dr. Barber. Bacon had been backwards and forwards at his mother's house on the Monday night, as he had on the previous night. I found Mrs. Bacon in bed, and very ill. She said she was a gnat deal worse. Mrs. Blake was the only other person in the room when I got there. Mrs. Bacon desired me to ask Mr. Barber if he thought she would die, as she thought she should. She said she wanted to know, in order-that her daughter might be sent fur from Titcbmarsh. Mr. Barber came about 7 o'clock. I asked him if he thought there was any danger, and he said, " No it was not necessary to send for the daughter." I thought ail day that Mrs. Bacon would die. She was very feverish after Mr. Bar ber's visit, and about 11 o'clock was delirious. She was alternately cold and hot. Mr. Barber was again sent for between 10 and 11. He recommended a warm bath, which she had. Deceased was at that time so stiff that we could scarcely get her clothes off and get her into the bath. The bath seemed temporarily to revive her. I again asked Mr. Barber as to the propriety of Mrs. Bacon's daughter being sent for, and he then recommended that course. Mr. Barber came again _ about 9, o'clock that 'night. He said she was sink-. iiq away for want, an d or d ere d h er some port wine. She was delirious both before and after taking the wine, and died about eleven o'clock. Her son Thomas was continually in the house during the Tuesday, and was present when she died. 'Her son, William Bacon, his wife, and Mrs. Scholes, were also present. There was a little dispute between the two brothers about deceased's rent-book, This took place while the mother was dying. Miaa Scholea " hushed " them; and said their mother could hear if she could not speak. Thomas bad taken the rent-book out of the house. I heard William Bacon's wife tell Thomas that his mother had made a will. Thomas toll me that his brothers had had their fortune. He did not keo .v that his mother had made a widow's will, and seemed surprised that she had done so. He told me he expected he should get the property at his mother's death. My husband was a tenant of Mrs. Bacon and I always paid her the rent during her lifetime. Upon her death I paid it to Thomas Fuller Bacon. I had always understood that he would become possessed of his mother's property at her death. -e,rf Mark William Jackson, surgeon, of Stamford, was the next witness. He said—l have been in practice as a surgeon in the town of Stamford for upwards of 30 years. I was present this morning when a coffin con taining a corpse, represented to be the body of Mrs. Aun Bacon, was taken out of the ground in Great Cas torton churchyard. I have since made a post ntorteia examination of the abdomen, and removed the whole o the contents. I also removed the heart, the blood, and such other parts of the chest as Dr. Taylor, who was present with me, thought requisite for his guidance in making his analysis. These various portions of the body were delivered to Dr. Taylor. lam unable to tx• press any opinion on them at present. Alfred Swaine Taylor was then sworn and examined. He deposed as follows :--I am a Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians, and have been lecturer on medi cal jurisprudence and chemistry at Guy's Hospital, Lon don, for 26 years. I was present this morning at tie exhumation of the body of a person represented to he Ann Bacon. I was also present at the inspection of the body made by Mr. Jackson, who removed in my pre'. sence, and delivered to me, those parts of the body which I considered necessary for making a comp!eto chemical analysis for the detection of poison. I placed these parts in a perfectly clean jar, and well secured the jar, sealed it with my coal, and delivered it to Superin tendent Mitchell. The blood removed from the chest by Mr. Jackson was placed in a clean bottle, which w a s also sealed and d e li vere d t o Superintendent Mitchell. A portion of the earth taken from under the coffin and the sides of the grave has also been removed for analysis. I am unable at present to say, from the appearance of the viscera, whethcr they do or do not contain poison, This can only be determined by a complete chemical analysis. Elizabeth Blake, who attended deceived, said she ob served that her hands were continual:y "twitching," and that after this she began to " t;viten" all over. De. eased said she felt as it paralysed from head to foot. Witness added—Mrs. Bacon told me she went to dine with her son Thomas on the Sunday, and that she had scarcely done dinner when she was taken ill. Two or three times during the night that I slept with her deceased clasped her hands together, and appeared strongly con vulsed. Wm. Mayes Hibbins examined—l was formerly an apprentice to Thos. Fuller Bacon. About a week berme Mrs. Bacon died I was working in the shop after tea, when Bacon came i n an d to ld me to go to the shop of Mr. Wilford, druggist, for six pennyworth of arsenic. He gave me the money to pay for it, and said, "If they ask you what it is for, you must tell them it is for hard ening iron." I went to Mr. Wilford's in High-street, Stamford, and asked the assistant for six pennyworth of arsenic, and lee said I could not have it without a wit ness. There was also an apprentice in the shop at the time. Upon this I went back to the workshop, where I found Bacon standing against a vice in the position I had left him. He said, " Where is it V' I told hire they would not let me have it without a witness. He laughed it off, and said, " Oh, never mind ; I'll get it myself." Coroner—ls it a common thing to use arsenic for hardening iron ? Witness--No, we never used anything but prnssiate of potash. At the time I was sent for arsenic we had no iron to harden, as Bacon's business was principally mending locks and g rates and belihanging. I never knew of arsenic being use for hardenieq iron. I remember hearing of Mrs. Bacon's death, ye/doh took place about a fortnight before I left. It occurred to me as very strange that she should go off in the manner she did, especially in connection with the fact of my being sent for arsenic. On the Thursday and Friday after Mrs. Bacon's death I was at work with my master; he seemed in a very queer temper, and struck me on each of those days—a thing he had never done before. Duringp the fortnight I remained with Bacon he did very little work himself, and gave me little to do. As he would not set me to work I asked him for my indentures, and he gave them up to me. He was not addicted to drinking, but on the day after his mother's death he sent me for a gal lon of beer. Shortly after leaving Bacon's service I mentioned to my father about being sent for the six pennyworth of arsenic, and afterwards to a lad named Wright, in the employ of Mr. Johnson, printer. Dur ing the time I was in Bacon's employment I never saw any rats about the premises. It was quite a new shop. He lived across the way in Broad -street. He told me he had once caught a rat at his dwelling-house, and that he killed it by pouring boiling water on it. Bacon never sent me for arsenic except on the occasion named. Whenever there was iron to harden I went for potash. Mr. George Patteri'en, druggist, of Stamford, proved that on the Bth of May, 1855, Thomas Fuller Bacon purchased an ounce of arsenic, stating that he wanted it for the purpose of killing rats. was Other stated th witnesses at ar s deposed a s t to put a into conversation th e b ro broth ouf which whichit Mrs. Bacon partook a t h e r son's house on the S unday. n a d s a .: . d.

TEE EAST INDIA MAIL.—SODTIIAIIPTON, Friday.— Intelligence was received here to-day to the effect that the Peninsular and Oriental Company's steam-ship Colombo has broken two of the blades of her screw, which will account for her long passage home, The Colombo brings the heavy portion of the East India mail, and left Gibraltar for Southampton on the 30th ult.

The Liverpool Steeplechase en grosses the most attenti on , an d many books are opened upon it. Today Emigrant, without any outlay, receded to 100 to 7 offered ; that price during the early part of the day was offered against Minos, but subsequently a commission to back him was executed, commencing at 500 to 40, and afterwards 100 to 8, several times the llyers tiring out the taker at that price. 1,000 to 20 was taken about Dangerous.
