Our loss is, I rejOice to sly, not more than four men of the 52d wounded. The Cana was right well planned, and right well executed.° "My first and very brief campaign is over. It is more exciting and interesting a good deal than hear ing appeals. But I must get back to the old dry work. I will see that all is kept going for securing the runaways, and then purpose making the best of my way back to Lahore. The Sealkote mutineers have indeed been frustrated in their plan. They fully believed that we had nothing but a few irrc gulars and police to meet them, and they were con fident of breaking through. Their discomfiture is complete." The following officers were at Neemuch on the 7th July :—Majorsßurton, Captain Showers, Capf.. Lloyd, Lieut. Ritchie, Capt. Laurie, Lieut. Barnos, Capt. Sir J. Hill, Lieut. Ellice, Lieut. Stapleton, Lieut. Williams, Dr. Murray. THE ACTION OF THE 14th BEFORE DELHI. JULY 15.—The enemy came out in force, about 9,000 men, with four guns, at 11 a.rn. yesterday, with the intention of taking our batteres. They fought under cover until 2 o'clock, when they came to the front, and wore beaten back into Delhi. Our people, too eager, followed them close nnder the walls. The enemy opened fire with grape and musketry from the walls; our loss in killed and wounded was heavy. It is a pity our people fol lowed them, as up to the time of their retreat, we had only about six men hit. Major Turner, Artillery, wounded in the thigh ; Brigadier General Chamberlain, Adj u tan t-G en eral, in shoulder ;Oh es ter and Daniel, of Gcorkhas, wounded ; Burns and• Faithful, H.M.'s 75th, slightly—former on the knee, the latter in the arm. The above are the only casualties I can give you at present, and may be relied on as correct. The cavalry was not en gaged.—Lahore Chronicle, July 22. The following in a description of the action on the 9th July before Delhi :—" On the 9th instant, the mutineers turned out in force and gave us fight ing all along the right front and right flank. By all accounts they were perfectly mad from churue' on blank,' and fought more boldly than they ever did before. At one point, the mosque, in front of Hindoo Rao's house, where some fifty of the Guides were posted, the rebels left some eighty or ninety dead on the ground, many lying close to the walls ; here also the Guides lost some six or seven men. On all points were the mutineers driven back with great slaughter, and their loss WWI con sidered as amounting to nearly 1,000 killed and wounded. From my own observation, end from what I have been told by competent persons, I should say the enemy lost at least 280 killed ; the wounded wore nearly all carried away, and many of their dead ; and . next morning, to the right of the Lahore gate, looking from our lines, we could perceive large fires, which, we presume were caused by the Pandies burning their dead. The complete success of the repulse was con siderably niarrel by our allowing about eighty of their Irregular Cavalry to get into camp round the General's mound ; they actually rode nearly right through the camp,, and ti ied to persuade a hative troop of Artillery to come away with them, but it was no go. When they were first discovered, Hill 'of the Atfllery, and a rough rider, went in at them ; poor Hill got a severe sword cut on the head ; Majcr Tombs, who always seems to ho in the thick of everything, shot the Sewer down ; the Ist Fusiliers now turned out and shot down some of them. Captain Fagan, of the Artillery, got together some Artillery recruits, and some other men, altogether about 25, and followed them on foot, knocked over about 15 of them, and amongst others the head sirdar, a great swell in officer's ap pointinents and a Cashmere shawl round his shoul ders ; the Sowars did not do as much mischief as they might have done in camp, but it was certainly a bold proceeding. In the confusion some wretched damp followers were shot by our own men, through mistake. On the whole, we have to re gret one officer of the B th (King's), and of the whole force about 47 or 60 killed ; one ofther of the Bth (King's), one 'of the Guides, ono of the G-Oorkas, Hill of the Artillery, and I believe Majer Tombs, very slightly ; and about 160 men of all hands wounded. These tre dear victories, and the' enemy can afford their loss, tholigh five or six to one, better than we can. Rumour says they are running short of caps, which, if true, is geed news. Some of the men may Jack Sepoy, at last a great num b e r, were fighting with matchlocks and tul wars only. The fight commenced at about 7 a.m. and lasted till nearly 4 p.m.,, all our troops, native and' European, fighting magnificently. Every soldier is look;ng forward to get mcade thow ac cursed red walls, which look us steadily iu the faeo every day." nomin .1, ,: 6 d Consols, money Console account.... COMMERCIAL. . BOMBAY, AUGUST 14. Our money Market during the past fortnight hag, al is usual at this season of the year, been s ,me what easier, and the banks have reduced tliei rates of interest 2 per cent. all round, and unless unfore seen circumstances should arise we are of opinion that a further reduction in rates of interest must take place ere long. The Government Notification to receive one-half 4 per cent, paper, and one-half cash into the 5 per cent, loan, has not improved the value of either of these securities. We quote fours 82, and fives 92, few buyers. Our local Joint Stocks keep firm at former quotations. The business transacted in cotton piece goods has been, in consequence of the mutinies in the upper , provinces, to a pretty moderate extent, but not as might be expected at this period of the season.

Closing Pecos yesterday There was not much alteration in the rates of exchange fir three months bills, drawn upon the principal cities of the Continent, but a slight im provement was appal out on Pads and Italy, and a fra7iional decline on Holland and Hamburg's. On comparing the price of gold at Paris and the ox-' change on London with the Eng standard, it appears that that metal is about .37 per cent. dearer in Paris than in London ; but is •12 per cent. higher here than in Ha,mburgh. ,The ac counts re7eived from America,lbis morning report a further decline in the rates of exchange on Lon don, and it is therefore apprehended that the ship ments of specie to this country will be consid erably diminished. It is mentioned, however, that the crisis was past, and the cessation of remit tances may perhaLs he only temporary. A further arrival of nearly 100,000 i. has been announced by the Anglo Saxon from Victoria; - and it appears that the George Marshall, in addition to the 2,1364 in gold dust, has brought 96,0001. in sovereigns. Further imports are daily expected from the same quarter, but as this is an Unfavourable time of the year for quickpamages they may come in more slowly than is generally imagined. Although the exchange on Bombay is 1 1 ,- per cent. lower, the silver market is firmer, and it is expected that the Ripon, on the 20th inst., will take out about 600,0001. in that metal. • 10 &rube.

MURDER AT WENLOCIE, Sentoireerreue.—A murder of great atreeity,iaaa been committed in the neighbourhood of Wenlock by a man namtd William Davies, who is stated to be about 35 years Of wee. Me victim is an old woman named Ann Morgan, alias Evans, who carried on the trade of a fortune-teller, and with whom he has io lived for the la.t 12 months, in a cottage at Westwood- 20 common, about two miles from Wenlock, on the Church 20 Shelton-road. On Saturday last. Dairies went to Wenlook 5 on some errand, and being away rather longer than de- 20' ceased expected she went in search of him, and they met 20 about 400 yards from the Atter some little alter cation they went into the bouseeto tea about 4 o'clock. In 20 a silent time a lad about 10 years of age, named John 20 Rowlands, a son of deceased's nephew, heard a strange 16 noise in the house, and shortly afterwards saw Davies 10 emerge from the cottaeecovereu with blood. He immedi- 20 ately informed his mother of what ho bad seen and heard, 20 an alarm was given, and on the neighbours going into the 20 house they found the old women lying quite.dead, with her throat cut in a frightful manner and six or seven stabs 10 on her body. The weapon with which the attack was " made was a largo clasp knife, which the wretch had 20 purchased on the previous Thursday. Information 10 was immediately sent to Police-constable Roberts at 20 Wenlock, who, in company with Police-constable 8 , Alder, examined the premises and afterwards started in pursuit of the prisoner, who was captured at 2 o'clock on the blowing morning in a bay at Mrs. Counds, of the Loasows, Leebotwood, where his father is employed as a labourer. He. was conveyed back to Wenlock, and on Monday was taken before Mr. Cenlin, a magistrate, who remanded him to Shrewsbury gaol. The case will be fully investigated at Wenlock to-Jay (Wednesday). Deceased was 65 years of age. LORD CECIL GORDON.—At the last Taunton County Court the petition of Lord C. Gordon came on for hear ing before Mr. Chas. Saunders, the judge of the Court. Mr. Sargood appeared for the detaining creditors, and Mr. Edlin for the insolvent. Lord C. J. Gordon having been sworn, Mr. Sargood said Me appeared on behalf of 20 tradesmen of Bath, to whom tie insolvent was indebted to the amount of upwards of 8001. These creditors com prised a great variety of tradesmen, including butchers, roilliners,drapere, wino merchaeits, and many othere. Mr. Sargood then proceeded to examine the insolvent, who in in the course of his replies estimated the amount of his debts, as enumerated in the 'schedule, at 2,3991.. Mr. Sargood pointed out several diecrepancies in the evidence of Lord Gordon, and submitted that therefore the peti tion must be dismissed as untrue. His Honour stated his bouviction that the objection raised by Mr. Sargood struck at the root of the proceedings. There was no intentional falsehood, but still ho felt that the petition was so manifestly untrue that he was bound to dismiss it.—Dismissed accordingly.

The Poonah Observer of July 28 publishes the following letters from Benares, dated the 19th : "We have just received General Havelock's des- Patch, telling us of his having recaptured Cawn- Pore, talon many gims-26 in number—after a hard fight of 3 hours and 40 minutes. Some of the guns are siege ones. But the unfortunate women and r , children had all been murdered by order of the - "a.jah Nena Sahib before the fight commenced. At first there must have been 500 women and children, all starved out and afterwards ill-treated, sold by auction, and finally murdered. It. is horrible to think of their fate. Four companies of the 78th i lighlanders, viz., Grenadiers, No. 3,6, and Light, ale the only ones with Havelock-. Nos. 1 and 7 are a ,t Allahabad, No. 8 at Gazeepore, and the rest here (Benares) with Major Haliburton. They ex- Peet to move on in a week or ;ess." The same journal, of the Ist of August, says : We are greatly rejoiced to hear that news Of General Havelock having again beaten that ruffianly scoundrel the Nena Sahib, and taken his fort at Bithoor from him, scattering his forces in all directions, and taking thirteen of his guns. This cowardly villain is now a houseless wanderer and a fugitive in the jungle, with a price set upon his head, and the 78th Highlanders on his trail. Gen. Havelock is, as well he may be, highly pleased With that glorious Regiment the 78th Highlanders. In a speech that he made to them after the last thrashing he gave the wretch we have above al luded to, whose, name it is 'pollution to mention more than is absolutely necessary, Gen. Havelock said—' I have been in 27 fights, and never saw a regiment behave better. I will say more, I never satin a regiment behave so well !' It appears that ill the fight which took place near Cawnpore, Which led to its re-capture on the . 16th ult. and the first flight of the Nena the 78th charged the guns three different times. No officers were killed, but or the mea 17 were killed and wounded. Major Stirling and three other officers of her Majesty's filth Regiment were wounded." The alcutta Englishman of 21st of July says : A plot was discovered here yesterday, and three of the worst characters in , the town, and a banker with • 8 lalths of rupees apprehended. Letters of a highly treasonable nature were disco vered ; they purported to be from a certain great one,' and called on the inhabitants to rise and de stroy Messrs. Tucker, Gubbins, Lind, and all uropeans. The plan was, that these three were to raise the disaffected characters, and having made away with those I named by treachery or night at t,aelc, were to polish off all the rest of ur. The ban ker was mentioned by name as the person from Whore they were to get funds, and in his house some 200 swords, guns, &c., were found. Gubbins is tryi ng to get some further information out of these prisoners, but I fear they will Lot peach. The banker actually offered the Darogah a government promissory note for Is. 10,000, if ho would allow 2 3 01 to escape. The Darogah played him a pretty 'rick : he told the banker he could not trust him, and that he must sign the note, which be did, and Ras then taken away, note and all, to Gubbins.

A. letter in the Lahore Chronicle, dated July 13, ija Y B :---" All well here, the battle of the 9 th ap - Pears to have ended in a complete victory over the Insurgents ; upwarda of 1,000 of whom lay dead on ' l3 O field. Our loss wastritling, one officer killed and t wo wounded. The Mahomedans in Rohilcund are have to show what their intentions are ; they 'gave already destroyed all the Hindoo temples in and around Bareilly. This fact alone should open the eyes of the Hindoo population of India as to ;What they might expect from Mahomedan masters. T he ;fats in this division are fully aware of What their position would become under such a L ule• The Sikhs before Delhi are said to b e be having splendidly ; and, together with the Goork s) are the admiration of the force. Would that e Commander-in-Chief had a few more pf them With him. We hear from good authority that the ~-1 - 1 1 g of Delhi wishes to make overtures to the Go ;ternom.ent, and is getting tired of war, now that his 1 1 14 Y • are running short of percussion caps, and 4 ;;Nn to convert their muskets into matchlocks. The last shells fired from the walls are evidently of Zn. inferior character, they seldom burst, have port fires stuck in them insteadof fuses, and the powder 13 evidently of native manufacture. Should the I .,l.,ative report be true, that Wheeler, with a large European force, is a few marches off Delhi, the r eign of the insurgents in the Imperial city is 4 short one. I believe I told you that Mr. Fleet ttood Williams has been appointed pro tem. corn kissioner of this division. He has already done much good, and is without doubt the right man in ,`le right place ; and it is a thousand pities he was 11 ' 4 appointed before, as it is absurd to suppose that Mr. Greathed, who is with the army before could have much influence over'a district in a state of insurrection, with two almost impassable l e separating him from the principal part of is charge." SATTARA. SA.TTARA, July 31, 1857.-111 appears quiet acre just now, but the civil authorities are not at 41 1 confident that some evil disposed people are 11 0 t still at work, trying to induce the disaffected to strike a blow. . . . The Punderpoor Dlrisoners have been tried, and I imagine will be ;Tug, as a guard of the 3d Europeans has ben Placed over them. One or two of them are rich i Otluentialmen, and, had not European troops lieen at this station, an attempt might have been Made to rescue them. Tho Mamlutdar they kilted at Punderpoor was said to be the best and the oue most attached to the British governme - nt in this collectorate. Some anxiety still :exists about Punderpoor, as a com pany of the 22d Regithent, under Lieut. Drum ihas been ordered out there on out-post duty. • AGRA• The ,2t2ofrtssilite of July 22 states that about 4 ,500 mutinous sepoys were known to have been alunng the insurgents who opposed the British force Under Brigadier Polwltelain the action of the sth instant. It la as not been ascertained what other mutinous corps took part' in the action—in fact it is not'up- Aoed that others were present as organized bodies, though very probably , many men from other regi inkuts irsisted on the occasion besides a host of Googers. Tho insurgent army was commanded by General Sirdharee Sing of Untabeg, recently a Snbadar in the Ist Light Cavalry ; while Heera Sing Thakoor of the Malwa, Contingent was Brigade Major or Chief of the Staff. Both men it will be observed aro tlindoos. The enemy had 12 guns on the ground. RATLWAYS-FOR CASS. tr. c. it c.

Indian corn was dull. Only small sales in pork. Prices unchanged. Freights quiet. MR. URQUHART AT PRESTON. On Sunday evening, Mr. David Urquhart, who is at present sojourning at Lytham, visited Preston, in com= piny with a gentleman whose name our correspondent could not learn, in order to address a meeting of the Fo reign Affairs Committee and their friends. There were about 40 persons present. Mr. Urquhart delivered a characteristic address, embellished, as usual, with violent epithets applied to his audience, and Englishmen in general, such as "you miscreants," "you scoundrels , " "you idiots," "you fools," "you allowed this," &C. Being asked if an extension of the franchise would be an antidote to the evils of which he complained, he entered into a speech of half an hour's duration, in which he said that the. man who used the word " reform " was either a threefold idiot or a threefold knave ; and he talked about " restoring the ancient constitution of Eouland." Mr. J. J. Merriman, editor of the Preston Guardian, who had only Casually come into the room, then rose, and at some length exposed the sophisms of Mr Urquhart, who interrupted the speaker, and said he "did not conic there to be talked to, but to talk." The audience, however, insisted upon Mr. Urquhart maintaining order, and Mr. Merriman proceeding with his address, Mr. Urquhart took up his hat and retired in a state of indignation.—(A. Voice, "There is one mit creaiit going now.") (Laughter.) He was then fol lowed•hy his unknown friend.—Mr. Merriman went ou with his address, and demolished the fallacies of Mr. Urquhart. He was supported by another speaker, who asked the committee what was the practical and feasible antidote to Alio evils of which they, along with Mr. Urquhars, complained ? He condemned the visionary scheme of "the Pharisee Urquhart," who certainly was not "as other men are,'" who was constantly be-slaver ing himself with praise, and denouncing as "heathens ali beside." Ho ridiculed Mr. Urquhart's conduct as suicidal and highly improper ; he came there to them for their co-operation, and then very paradoxically dubbed them •‘ idiots, miscreants, and fools," with the greatest impartiality. After some further discussion, during. which Mr. Urquhart was very s roughly handled, the proceedings terminated with a vote of thanks to Mr. Merriman.—Manch,ester Guardian. HOW TITUS MANLIUS , MACAULBIUS WAS MADE A PATRIOIAN4 A LAY OF ANCIENT 11011 E. (Prom, Punch.) The Consul Palinerstonius ilath ten down his Dobretb, And o'er its storied pages His anxiou,s brow is set. Those are not age's wrinkles The Consul's cheek that plough, It is not time that sprinkles • That snow upon his brow. The wrinkles are such wrinkles As a Consul should display : "Up to a wrinkle" meaning Up to the time of day. And if the greys hairs mattered, Their presence %would explain To call them snow-flakes scattered To cool that hot young brain. The Consul closed the volume— Ho closed it with a bang I And he seized his slate and pencil From the wall where they did hang ; And straight ho set to ciphering, And out a sum ho brought ; And his sum was of six figures, And it ended with a nought. Then gaily tripped the Consul To the lErarium straight, And before Cornelius Levies He thrust the scribbled slate. " Chock you, Cornelius Levies, These figures all and each ; All figures at thy finger-ends, Hest thou, save those of speech." Dry and a-dust, sat Levius, Scanty of words and slack : And he proved the Consul's figures, And the slate ho gave him back. " Now, read off the sum total," And Levies road it through— From left to right, not right to left — Nought, two, eight, six, and two I So the united ages Of the Patricians stood, When Consul Palmerstonins Vowed they must have new blood. " What though your WWI: homilies Do not always wax in wit : Oft Patricius, like Poetic, Proves nasciur non fit." "Besides, as after physic The matron gives her child A crust of blandest honey, To make the bitter mild ; So I, for the Patricians, A. pleasant peer must find, To take away the savour Wen.'dalius left behind. Patres ma)orum gentiunt, Patres minorum, too, Your seats upon those benches To sources strange aro duo : The fruit of royal bye-blows, Ti e growths of courtier-slime, The brawny sons of re.pine, Tho heirs of reckless crime. "Tho sword bath dibbled often • Holes from patrician seed ; • And many a lawyer's tongue bath licked All shoes, and oft unfet'd, No stooping found too lowly, No crawling thought too mean, If but a Conscript Father lie might at last b 3 seen. "The Sword, the Tongue, the Purse have therm Their representing men— Remains one tool of greatness Unhonoured there—the Pen. The consulship of Piancus An era still wo see : Why should not Palmerstonius Be notable as he ? "I'll raise to the Patricians, • • Ono who no'er wore steel, nor lied, Whose weapon was his goose-quill, Whose pleadings were world-wide; Whose foes were Falsehood, Prejudice, Fraud, SophiStry, and Wrong— With which he held wit-combat, Wit-combat, brave and long ! "So, when that Palmerstonius ilath gone whore all must . go— E'en those whose brains glow fiery 'Neath coronals of snow : Write by the Appian way-side, On the tomb where he is laid, Of Manlius Macauleius He a Patrician made.'" Tan CuEsTrquTCrtor.—A fetter from Limoges states that the chestnut trees in the Limousin are breaking down under the weight of the fruit. Never in the memory of man was there seen so large a crop of chest nuts as thia year. They will be as remarkable for quality as fcr size iu consequence of the favourable weather. CATTLE FROM vuu NORTH OF EUROPIL—The gross imports of cattle into Lowestoft harbour last week fs orn [Lawn, Frederickstadt, and Tonning (Duchy of Soblos wig) amounted to 1,024 beasts and 1,298 'oxen. The North of Europe steam Navigation Company's steamer, the City of Norwich, Captain Oliver, and the Tonning, Captain Russel% arrived on Friday ; and the Cumber land, Captain Rivers, followed on Saturday. The Cum berland brought 221 beasts and 220 sheep, and the other vessels having equally large cargoes, the stock was de spatched to town in five special trains, as they bad been consigned, as usual, to metropolitan firma. A telegra phic ine6sage, received on Saturday from Lowestoft, states that a fourth steamer, the Royal Victoria, Cap 4. Rase, was also expected to arrive in time to enable her cargo to be despatched to the metropolitan market. It is probable, therefore, that the total arrivals will be as heavy as last week. The importation will continuo for about six weeks, or longer, but they will be suspended during the winter months.

Sir,—lu your paper of Friday last a letter ap peared from Dr. Beattie in reference to the moans at the disposal of the Bengal Government for tran sporting troops and sterol expeditiously from Cal cutta to Allahabad—a distance of 598 noile. This a point of such viial importance at the present crisis that any authentic information on the sub ject must be deeply interesting to the public. To the information conveyed by Dr. Beattie 1 I 0,-; therefore to add that, Lesides . the Mirzapore, Bo nfires, and several Government boats referred to by hiret the whole of the fine fleet of the General Steam Navigation Company his been -en gaged in the above important Service since May last. - - _ This company's vessels were built in London (by Mes rs. Blyth) expressly to work in rapid and ihallow water, and when deeply laden do not draw more than three feet. Each steamer (there are ight in number—the 'hates Hume, Lady liaclr well, Calcutta, Bombay, Generil MNA, Sir 1 1 . Currie, Madras, and Charles All( n) towing a large cargo-tlat conveys comfortably 400 troop, with officers and baggag?, and th'y are fast v:iisels,' making the passage from Calcutta to Allahabal - in from 14 to 16 days. The Government has thua, it will be seen, ample means at its disposal to carry up expeditiously to Allahabad the forces from this country as they ar rive at Calcutta, and I.am informed that the corn-. pany are about increasing their capital, so as to oh-' tarn more boats, to meet the increasing traffic on the Bengal rivers. Besides carrying up troops these boats bay* widiin six weeks rescued from the bloodthirsty rebels and brought safely to Calcutta upwards of 400 souls, remnants of families in the deepest dis tress. Ano' her good service performed by one of this company's steamers was bringing down to Calcut'a 14 lacs of rupees (14,0001.) sat - sly, without a guard, but not without danger, as during the passage the boat was attacked by 1,500 rebels, whom the little band of Europeans on board beat off, killing 17 of their number, for which they received the thanks of the Governor-General. I atu, Sir, your obedient servant, DAVID WILSON. 5, Laurence Pountney-lane, Sipt. 15. ASSASSINATION OF THE BRITISH MINISTER AT LIMA. We ere enabled, by means of a private letter, to give more authentic details of this sad occurrence. It is not correct, as stated by,the Panama Star and Herald, that Mr. S. E. Sulivan was dining alone when the deed was committed. lie was in tho company of another gentlerae.n, whose account of the transaction is as follows : " LIMA, AUG. 17, 7 A.M. " The whole of Lima and Callao has Leon thrown into a slate of utter consternation by a most dastardly attempt to assassinate my friend Mr. Sulivan, in his' own house, last evening a little before 7. 1 fear it is an a , sassin at ion, for the doctors give no hope of his recovery. We were dining comfortably tagetber when the steward rushed in through the bedroom, followed by the assassin, into the office, calling out Thieves !' and upon our jumping up and going towards the door wo were mot by the viLaio, who, without saying a word, placed a blun derbuss close to Mr. Sulivan's stomach and discharged it, and immediately started off the way he came in, with out taking a single article.• Mr. Sulivan staggered back into my arms, saying He's killed me.' Puree pistol balls were taken out of his stomach and a half-ounce ball was cut out of the flashy part of his back. As you o judge, we have passed a dreadful eiqht attending upon the sufferer, preparing him for the worst, and doing what was necessary as regards fie last wishes in case the wounds are mortal. No reason can be assigned for the foul deed, for he had no persons , ' enemies, and the general opinion is that it is a political affair of the Vivanco party, at present in arms against the Castilla Government. Several persons have been seized, but it is not yet known whether they were of the party. The servants state that three other men remained in the back passage during the affair. I have to be thankful that I myself escaped injury most unaccountably, for if the shot had been made a yard or two off some of the bullets must have tou t ched me. The excitement ie natu rally very great here kr after this instance of coldblooded murder no one considers hinitself safe. It remains to be seen whether this will note made a Government ques tion between Great Britain and Peru." The gentleman who gives the above account is a merchant of considerable standing in Lima, and had frequently acted as secretary to Mr. Sulivan,. with whom he was on very intimate terms. LOYAL SURR,EY GARDENS. Last evening a meeting of the creditors of the Royal Surrey Gardens Company, convened by the committee of shareholders, was held at 23, Cannon-street, to con sider the steps necessary to be taken to protect the mu tual interests of the creditors and shareholders. Mr. Coombes, chairman of the committee of shareholders, occupied the cha;r. Mr. Coppock, one of the directors of the company, was present. A statement of the lia bilities of the company, prepared by the committee, showed that the debts of the company amounted to 27,873/ 13s. ad., and were made up as follows :—Mort gage bonds, including 2001. interest, 9.7001.. Messrs. Cox, Biddulph, and Co., bankers, 1,0001., rent 181/. 95., taxes, &c., 2051. 153., salaries, including 1,250/. owing to M. Jullien, and also the 5061. dishonoured check, 1,870/. 12s. 3d. ; money advanced by Messrs. Coppock and Co. since the bankruptcy, 1,001/. lls. 31., includ ing 2281., the Seacole fued ; general creditors on bills t f exchange, 8,278/. 3s. 101 • on accounts, 5,636/. 23. 2d. The chairman said that there were three classes.to dee( with—first, the mortgage creditors, to the extent of ab )ut 14,500/. ; secondly, the general creditors, about 12,000/. ; and, lastly, the shareholders, about 33,000/. makingtogether about 60,000/. Thu creditors comprised two descriptions—those holding bills to the extent of 10,000/., and those who had none, but were owed money for goods they had supplied. On investigating the deed of settlement it was found that the directors had no power to give bills in the name of the company, and, consequently, it was behaved that they were indivi dually responsible for the 10,000/., so given. If that were so the company would be relieved of a great debt'', and then the consideration was what was to be done with the remaining creditors, The plan suggested by the committee was, in the event of their being successful with the bills of exchange, to pay off the other creditors with a composiqou of 2 , - GI in the pound, and give them au interest in the gardens to the extent of another 2i. 61 in the pound, which would give them sg. iu the pound before the shareholders received a farthing. Re therefore proposed that the creditors should authorize Mr. Fleming to take counsel's opinion on the liabilities (I the directors on the bills of exchange. A long dig cuasion ensued, in the course of which it was elicited that the committee of shareholders, which included the chairman, Mr. Staff, Mr. Nicholls, Mr. Spetchley, Mr, Clout, Mr. Swan, and Mr. Fleiniog, held 55 shares be. tween them. Mr. Coppock, who addressed the meeting, stated that if the creditors and shareholders co-operated with the directors they would all receive 20s. in the pound, and he called upon them not to accept the propo sition offered. He was the largest shareholder, and his claim against the company as a creditor was for 7001. money lent. He assurel the meeting that he would - not take a farthing until the creditors( were paid in full.
