rosaii,iiov. 12.
3114—Exaggerated reports haring bee° spread as
to the (all of the Crow Mills viaduct on the Midland Rail-
way, near Leicester, owing to the floods last night, I beg to
inform you that the extent of the injury is in a portion of
one pier which has given way, bringing with it • part of
two arclies. One line of road remains uniojured, and
though it is not prudent to work the trains over it at pro-
sent, there is reason to expect that the hue will be open
egaia in the course of to-morrow.
I am, sir, your obedient servant,
W. 11. BARLOW,
Engineer of the Midland Railway.

Form WESTERN .RAILWAT.—It is stated, that in
corn queneo of the recent wise decision of the proprietors
against the Western Exten•ion- policy advocated by the
chairman and the majority of his colleagues, it was the in-
tention of Mr. Chaplin at once to have resigned the chair ;
but we are now informed, that on consideration of all the
circumstances of the cumpany—including in particular the
resignation of the secretary, the present vacancies M the
board, and the further vacancies which will be r condoned
►y the periodical rotation next February, Mr. Chap,in has
decided not to relinquish his position until the next half-
yearly general meeting —after which time he will not be a
candidate for the chair.
BOAT I:I'SP:T IN PLTMOUTII SOUND.—A few days
since, during a strong gale from the 8.8. W., a boat con-
taining two gentlemen and two sailors, was capsized in the
Sound, and immediately filled and went down. As only
one out of the four could swim, and a long heavy sea was
running at the time, they must have been inevitably lost
had it not been for the very praiseworthy promptitude with
which another boat, containing three gentlemen (Samuel
Bates, Esq., the lies. Mr. Doherty, and George Doherty,
Esq.), born op to their assistance, at their own imminent
risk, and by the molest possible exertions succeeded in
saving their four fellow-creatures as they were on the point
of 'nuking. They had themselves been endeavouring to
reach the Resolute, hound for Australia, amengsrwlioae
passengers are Lord Henry Scott and Lord Schomberg, end
on board of which a drierintr was to have been given that
morning, prior to her sailing, had the weather been more
favourable, I ut when some distance out they determined,
owing to the violence of the gale, to put abut and return
to shore, and they nem thus providentially the means of
rescuing tour human beings from a watery grave.

Mr. Clarkson, on the part of the pressostor, asked for a

Mr. Parry, ea the put of the Auer Coleman, said, in
explanation of the circumstances mailer which the bill had
been drawnand accepted, the primmer had entered into an
arrangement with Mr. Bnttin, who was now in Nicaragua,
that they should enter into partnership for the mutual
transit of goods and wines ; the firm in London to be in
the name of Coleman and Bottle, and Francis Bottle in
Nitarsgua, and both the signatures being genuine there
was no intention to defraud. Coleman was a respectable
man, and kept an account with the British Bank, and
there was no suggestion that the acceptance was a forgery,
and it was only urged that the signature of the drawer was
a f;lrridfUltion said it was in the power of the prisoner
Coleman to prove there was such a pers.n as Francis
Bettis.

The Lord Mayor said the ease was one of great suspicion.
This was the first transaction, and he found the prisoner
accepting a bill for 1871„ and endeavouring to raise 1001. on
it. There was evidence of the connexion of the parties in
the transaction ; and the fact of the plate from which the
bill was to►en basing been ordered by Gurney, with a re-
quest that the engraver's name should be omitted, was
in itself a very suspicions fast ; he, therefore, thought there
was sufelent ground for a remand.
The prisoners were thin remanded until Friday next on
the same bail.

Thomas Coffins, who stew& chanted with fraudulent/7
obtaining a number of portraits and miniatures from the
nobility, gentry, artists, and others, and who has been exa-
mined on two former occasions at this office, was again
brought up.
The first witness called was Captain George B. Irving—
I recognise the portrait produced • portrait of Lord San-
dye), which was purchased by Mr. Alderman Moon, and
which was sent by Mr. Moon to Mr. Barker on May 3rd,
1341. I had seen the picture in the possession of Mr.
Barker, and I afterwards saw it in the custody of Mr.
M'Leaa, of the Ilaymarket. That was some time in the
month of June.

It was stated that Mr. Barker was at present abroad.
Elisabeth Howard, housekeeper to Lord Sandys—l have
seen the portrait, and I remember its coming back from Mr.
Barker's in May, 1851. for I took it in, and took it up stairs
to the drawing nom, and delivered it to his lordship's
valet. It was in thedrawintroom two or three days after
that, but I don't know what became of it afterwards. I
don't know anything of the prisoner at the bar. Mr. Barker
brought the portrait. There is no ether servant in the
house but his lordship's valet.
John Mackey, valet to Lord Sandys—l bare seen the
portrait, and I remember seeing it placed in the drawing-
room about July last year. I don't know what became of
it. I know nothing of the prisoner.
Lord Sandy, stated that he knew nothing of the prisoner.
In answer to a question from the prisoner, Lord Sandy+
said that he had received a letter from a Mr. Collins about
the portrait, which he answered, declining to give him the
portrait.
Mr. Shepherdson said it was &Smolt to put a valise on

CAPE OF 0001) HOPE.

The Zuid Afrikaan, of the 31st May, bring news
from the Cape two day. later than that brought by
the Bosphorus. The following are the only items
of interest received :

The accounts by Sunday's post state that another
murder has been perpetrated by the rebel Hottentots
upon two herds, in Manley's Flat. ten miles south
of Graham's Town. These men (a Fingos and a Hot-
tentot) were out in the field with the cattle, when
they were attacked and shot by the rebels, who car-
ried off the cattle.
An attack had been made on Waterkloof, by Col.
Buller, on the 17th inst., at a place called the Horse-
shoe, where the lamented Colonel Fordyce was
killed. The Raffirs fought bravely. The colonel de-
stroyed a number of huts, and the enemy gave way
before the troops; but the instant the retreat was
sounded they reappeared in thousands, and com-
menced a desperate attack on the rear guard, only
repelled by the good working of the artillery, which
Colonel Buller had brought with him. One of the
rifles was severely, and two others slightly wounded.

NEW ZEALAND.

By the Midlothian, we have a file of journals from
New Zealand. The editor of the Southern Cross
(Auckland, New Zealand) journal, of the 12th March
last, writes thus :

Tan GOLD INVISTIOATION.—At the bout at which we
write the committee bad net returned from their 'opine of
inquiry, but should anything tramples between this and our
hour of publication, we shall not fail to make it known.
The boat despatched oa Monday by the resident magi.-
trate, in consequence of the severity of the weather, was
enable to pr-eeed further than Waikiki, and as the com-
mittee had previously visited that quarter, no additional
intelligence has been received. We must, therefore, in the
meanwhile, bide the result with patience.
A despatch of Lord Grey's relative to the disposal of
land in New Zealand, and dated August 8, 18,51, as pub-
lished in the New Zealand journals. It appears from this
despatch that the imperial and colonial legislation respect-
ing the sffairs of the New Zealand Company clash, and
that the colonial legislation must give way. His lordship
announces that all proceedings under the New Zealand'
Company's land claimants' °romance mug be stopped, and
that the recently issued regulations, with respect to depts•
taring and timber licenses and the occupation of the wute
lands of the crown must /as far as New Munster is con-
cerned) share the same fate, being superseded by a recur.
rence to those issued by the company on the let of August,
1849. In this despatch Lord they maintains the justice
and expediency of charging the enormous awn claimed by
the company on the general revenue as well as on the lead
funds of the colony.
The Katherine Stewed Forbes, Captain Wright, had
arrived from England at Auckland after a tedious but
prosperous voyage of 140 days' duration.

RAILWAYS.

THIS DAT.
Two o'CLoec.
The railway market is very unsettled. Prices at
one prcriod of the morning were much depressed,
bat the rates realised' aro in most oases decidedly
above those of Saturday.

MONEY MARKET.

SATURDAY BTINIRG.

-------- —.-...--.
The week's market has closed with every doll ap-
mimeo. Consols ranged to-day between 995 sail
991, and closed only 994 to 1 for money and next
Thursday, and 995 to f for the September account.
These quotations show • further fall of; per cent.
since yesterday. The depression is general, the
Three per Vent. Reduced having fallen to 1001 ; the
Three-and-a Quarter per Cent. to 103); India Stock
to 240; and Bank Stock to 229. Business, however,
is on a quiet scale, and it is evident the public for-
bear to operate. As regards one of tho points which
has told very sensibly in favour of the " bears," vie,
the American Fishery dispute, we are in a position to
state, from the best authority, that in the present posi-
tion of the affair there is not the slightest
ground for tho fear that any interruption of our I
friendly. relations with the United States will ensue.l
The official list of to-day's business is as follows:
Three per Cent. Consols, fir money, 995, I, 1, a.;
ditto for account, 991, 1. Three per Cent. Reduced,
1005, 4. New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents.,
1031, 4, 1. Long Annuities, 1800, 64 • Ditto 30
years, 1960, 6 11-16. India Stuck, 282, 280, 284.
Bank Stock, 230, 220.
The unfunded securities were rather weaker to-day-
Exchequer Bills of the March issue were purchased
at 780. prem., but rallied to yesterday's rate of 765.
to 79a. prem. The June Bills ruled at 70r. to 735.
pram., being is. lower. India Bonds remain quoted
ins. to 945. prem.

Accolade from Athens of the 25th ult. state that
the Militates of the Interior has resigned, and that it
visa believed that the Queen, who was currying on
the government as regent during the king's absence,
would Dominate M. l'alamides his successor. The
bill relative to the nomination of bishops had been
adopted by the Senate.
It is stated in a letter from Athens that a Greco-
French company has made propositions for establish-
ing a railway from Athens to the Pincus. This will
be the first railway in Greece.

PIEDMONT.

TURIN, Aticater 6.
The Gozette publishes the following circular from
the minister of the interior to the intendent's-
general :
The marriage bill presented to parliament by the govern-
ment is an occasion or a pretext to excite an agitation in the
sentry, and especially by means of petitions. The right of
petitioning, when legally ozonised, when it is the free and ,
independent expression of the wishes of citizens, when it
does not offend free instPutions and laws, should be re-
, spatted. But when it gives occasion to intrigues, mancevres,
fraud, violence, menaces, and insidious insinuations by means 1,
of which it seeks to mislead public opinion (es, for example,
with reference to the present question when it attempts to
make the people believe that the government has anti-catko-
lic tendencies), then it becomes necessary to watch these pro-
ceedings narrowly, in order to discover the authors of them,
and to denounce such agitators to the public crosscute r, so
that their sinister projecta may be rendered abortive. It
has come to the knowledge of the minister that the right of
petition has been abased, and converted into a weepers of
attack against the government by certain curds and vicars.
The undersigned therefore requests the intendants, and all
mayors and other agents of the government to use the ut-
most vigilance, and to prosecute in all eases where they may
and a breach of the law committed. The government is
dimly resolved to prevent, and if necessary to punish every
act of a nature to distarb order, or to bring the law
into contempt; it therefore recommends foresight and

gives a total of 61,179 ounces of silver, and 150
ounces and 63,9621. in gold, the aggregate value
being neariy 80,0001.
There have also been shipped 5,2271. by the
Parana for the West Indies; 300,000!. by the Sydney
steamer; 50,0001. by the Admiral, and 35,000/. by
the Dinspore, both for I'ort Phillip ; and 52,0001.
by the Benjamin Elkin for Sydney. These ship-
ments, which have already bCen reported in the
Express as they took place from day to day, raise
the total week's exports from the kingdom to
522,0001. This shows a balance of imports over ex-
ports amounting to 700,000/.
The Midlothian, which has just arrived off the
coast from New Zealand, has brought one of the''
most valuable cargoes ever received from thnt colony.
The bulk of her cargo consists of wool, of which she
has no less than 1,555 bales, weighing 420,00011 mi.
Additional evidence is thus afforded of the increasing
attention now paid to wool growing in New Zealand.
In a few years it will probably form the staple ex-
port of the colony.
The amount of bills drawn by the Emit India Com-
pany on their respective Presidencies, from the 24th

PERFORATED POSTAGE STAMPS.

Mr. GROGAN begged to ask whether any arrangement
had been made with the patentee relative to the supply of
perforated postage stamps to the public, or if it were the
Mtention of the government to purchase the potent sr agree
for the use thereof, so that the public might enjoy the con-
sommes* a the slaws J
Mr. C. LEWIS raid that Mr. Archer, the patentee in
question, had prepared a machine for perforating postage
stamps, which bad been submitted to the consideration of
the authorities at the Poet-office. A .um of 6011. wee
therefore offered fir the use of the machine, but bad been
declined. The question wet then re-considered, and on
the advice of the Postmaster General, after further inquiry,
the sum of 2.0001. was offered, but had also been de-
clined.
Mr. OROOAN did not think hie question had been an-
swered.
Mr. LEWIS mid that the second offer having been de-
clined, the authorities had not attempted to make any other
arrangement.

The following are the latest telegraphic despatches
received in Paris up to last evening :—"
pt *d Madrid,
Feb. 3, 2 p.m.—The Queen hus vm-r1 the morning
tranquilly ; the fever and tho breal inthunn ion,
both inevitable, have moderated."

A later despatch says :—."lhe suppuration of the

dent has supervened. When her Majesty received
the wound, which was indicted on her side with
poniard, and not with a pistol, as ut first Muted, r.lie
was proceeding to the church of Atoeha, surrounded
by her court. The ansassiii, whu is a priest, has
been arrested."

We find the following in the l'aerie (Nei' paper)
of Thursday evening:
The attack made on the Queen of Spain has produced a
deep and moat painful actuation in l'aris. All the repre-
sentatives of the fort ign powers and a great number of
French political personages called this morning at the
116 tel of the Spanish minister. The French Minister of
Foreign Affairs was among the number. General Itogiot
called in the name of the Prince-President, to express
sympathy and regrets for the misfortune which hid hapts-ned
to Queen habella.
_

Dates from Madrid, by the ordinary channel, are
of the Ist. The Queen was to repair in state to the
church of Atocha in the afternoon ; and the troops
would line the way. There is a talk of reinforcing

conclusion of a treaty between the Austrian govern-
ment and the President of the French Republic,
fixing the eventualities which shall cause the occupa-
tion of Switzerland by Frame and Austria. This
news, says the letter, has occasioned great sensation
in Berlin, as it is considered that such a treaty ought
not to have been made without the consent of Pravda.

Australian, Captain W. Hammon, R.N., with mails for
the Cape, Australis. and Van Diemen's Land, left Ply-

bay was made good by the hands in the Royal Dockyard
at Devonport, under the direction of the master shipwright,
Mr. Edge. The mails, which were put on board in the
dockyard, were very large. The principal portion was put
en board on Wednesday, a further portion on Thursday,
and the last on Friday morning, on the arrival of the
London mail, immediately after which the vessel got under
weigh, and proceeded on for her destination. The de-
parture of this steamer is a matter of considerable interest,
it being the Brat attempt to run a mail steamer to so distant
a port as Australia. It is expected she will maks the pas-
sage in about 60 days.
THE STOCK EXCHANDE AND THE POLICE.—On

... —.—
Saturday afternoon, about three o'clock, some stir was
created at the entrance of the Stock Eachenge, by one of
their officers refusing to admit Storey, a City detective, in
pursuit of a criminal. For some time Storey has been em-
ployed by a gentleman in the neighbourhood of Thames-
street to apprehend a young man of respectable connexions,
who had robbed him of a considerable sum. On Saturday
afternoon be was in search of the offender with the plun-
dered person, and in pas big the entrance of the Stock
Exchange in Threadneedle.etreet, they observed the indi-
vidual whom they wanted run down the paeans and enter
the Stock Exchange. Storey, who was in private clothes
at the time, immediately pinned the party, and as he was
entering the latter building, he was stopped by the beadle,
who demanded his business. lie produced his warrant
card, and stated his case. The beadle refused to admit him,
and demanded to know the name of the party he was in
search of. Storey refused to satisfy him, and was then re-
ferred to the secretary of the Exchange, in New-court. He
proceeded round the building, and was then informed that
his authority did not extend to the interior of the Stock
Enhance, and that their officer had acted right in refusing
him admission. Storey went into the particulars of the
case, and urged its importance, and ultimately found ad-
mission, but the °Bender hed escaped by tome other en-
trance. It is supposed that the criminal entered the Stock
Exchange by pretending that he wus a clerk to one of the
stockbrokers. _

IRELAND.

JVNII 5.
The Tenant League and the Defence Association
are fairly at issue on the question of the Meath elec-
tion. The former are working heaven and earth
for their candidate, Mr. Lucas, of the Tablet, the
latter contenting themselves with a public expression
of regret that Mr. Grattan's seat should be disturbed
by a contest, and the country incur the stain of in-
gratitude by treating that hon. gentleman so
badly ; but the source of the quarrel appears to he
much deeper, and what seemed hitherto merely a
want of cordiality between the two bodies has now
broken out into open war. The Nation and Tubfst
of this morning open a tremendous fire upon the de-
fenders. The Nation publishes the names of the
" parliamentary committee " of the association, and
denounces thosegentlemen as persons from whom the
crown prosecutor might have easilyselected a jury hos-
tile to Mr. Lucas, if he were so inclined, in the recent
trial of bopping r. Lucas, but endeavours to fix the
odium upon the lay members of the association, and
to exclude the clergy altogether from the transaction.
The Tabla charges the committee with treachery,
stating that Mr. Lucas having ascertained acci-
dentally, before be committed himself to a canvass of
Meath, that a resolution had been passed by the
association in favour of Mr. Grattan, obtained the
assurance of Mr. Wilberforce that that resolution was
a private one, and would continue such ; that he then
entered on his canvass; and that then only,when they
found Mr. Lucas so situated that he could not with-
draw with credit, the association came out with a
public protestation against him and his proceedings.
So stands the quarrel for the present. A warm dis-
cussion on the subject may be expected at the meet-
ing of the general committee called for 'l'uesday
next ; but for so fur it is probable that the influence
of the association with the popular party throughout
the country has suffered material detriment in the
affair.

The two liberal candidates for Kildare, Sir W.
Hort and Mr. O'Connor Henchy, are holding a grand
rehearsal of the forthcoming election in the arbitra-
tion rooms of the Four Courts, the whole process ofaa
election being gone through, with the exception that
instead of the voters appearing in person, their pro-
mises only are introduced. The arbitrators have
taken Sir Colman O'Loghlen as umpire, and, as
many of the promises are claimed on both sides,
several knotty questions arise. The result of this in.
vestigation of votes may not be ascertained for a few
days longer.
The Cork papers continue to describe the progress
of the work at the National Exhibition buildings as
in every respect satisfactory. Several portions of
the building are still unfinished, but there is no ap-
prehension that they will not be completed by
Thursday next, the day of opening. The goods far
exhibition are pouring in in large quantities, and the
arrangement of them is carried on with sotivity and
judgment.

MINES.

SATURDAY BYINIXO.I
The market for mining stocks was active and
buoyant to-day and prices look well. The heavy
dividend shares are actively inquired for, but few'
sellers are to be found. All the Alfred Mines are in
demand and at improved prices, and in Tincrofts and
Great Polgooths a considerable business is doing,'
both in the Stock Exchange and elsewhere. The
prices at which sales have been made are reported to
us as follows by the most respectable brokers and
dealers, but due allowance must be made for the
wide margin frequently existing in this 'variable
market as between buyer and seller :—Devon Great
Consols, 320 ; East Seto and Maud, 71_,__•
KU-
bricken, 5; Clive, 51; East Pool, 103 ; Wheal
Brewer, 18 • Wheal Margaret, 118; West Caradon

Pennance, 18; West Wheal Alfred, 21 ; Olenaulin,
1 tog prem.; the United Odell y Miners, to 1
prem.
There was no business of the least importance
in the gold mining shares, and prices are un-
changed. No buoyancy is apparent and little
disposition is evinced to deal in these secu-
rities, some of which, considering the extremely
favourable character of the intelligence from the
Australian and Californian gold fields, must be
considered as unduly.depressed. Individual enter-
prise in gold mining is known to be, in the aggre-
gate, most profitable, and it is urged that the chances
of success are surely more in favour of associations
having at their command capital and the best mecha-
nical appliances. The non-official quotations are as
follows :—Australian Consols, 1 die. to par ; Royal
Australian Mining, k dia. to pm. ; Yuba River, par
to 1 prem. ; Bntannia, par to / prem.; Baden Baden,

The English funds have been firmer to-day, the ap-
proach of the Consol settlement being favourable to
prices. Consols have been purchased at 1003, boa
are now quoted at Saturday's range of 1001 to # for
money and Wednesday, and 1021 to 1 for the ittly
account. Boldness in this department is decidedly
quiet. The Three per Cents. Reduced mark 9V

80s. to 635. prem. India Bonds, 88s. prem.
In the foreign stock market the chief feature is a
great fall in Mexican bonds, which have been sold
as low as 22' for the new bonds ; the price, however,
has since rallied to 231, and now looks steadier. The
Old bonds mark 294 to 301. Austrian scrip is
better at 1 premium, and Venezuelan at
40, the Deterred Bonds marking 141. Buenos
Ayrean Bonds have been sold at 72 ex div. Eqns-

X SUMMARY OF THE PRODUCE
__ MARKETS.

MINCING-LANE,iA TURDAT MORNING.
There has not been much animation in the Colonial mar-
kets this week, and lower prices have occasionally been ac-
cepted. Tho public .ale. of Sugar have not been large, but
quotations show &decline upon some descriptions of about 6d.
per cwt. Foreign sorts, however, have realised rather
advanced rates. Coffee has been heavy of sale, even at •
slight reduction in the value ; some Native Ceylon has to-
day changed hands, at 38s. per cwt. The Persia, from
Ceylon, with the first of the new crop, is reported off Fal-
mouth. Slice continues very fiat ; some sales have been
made at the late decline. The Tea market still continues
dull and inactive, and sales are made with ditficohy.

FOR IRELAND.

Mr. BRIGHT ga;eSWiticeth7a7 he would, on Monday,
ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether the recom-
mendation of the committee on official salaries had been
envied out in respect to the salary of the Chief Secretary
foArlrelsnd, in which t►ey recommended that a large re-
duction should be made on the next vacancy. or in cue of a
dissolution of parliament.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said ho
could answer the question now. All the representations
of the committee on official salaries would be well consi-
dered, and in this instance their general tenor had been fol-
lowed. (Hear, hear.)
DECIMAL (20INAGE.—THE FLORIN.
Mr. EWART wished to inquire of the Chancellor of the
Exchequer whether there was a prospect of the new coin
called the florin (of Is. value) being re-issued, especially as
approximating toll decimal system of coinage ?
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that
her Majesty had approved of the new coin called the florin,
end an order in council for its coinage was lamed on the
4th ult. There was about 20,0001. in bars of silver pre-
pared for the coinage, but the pressure on the Mint for
gold rendered it impossible to concentrate their efforts for
the purpose of making the silver coin. In about two
months 200,000 picers of the new coin would be issued.
With regard to the seamed part of the qui %thin—namely,
the ilecinudiaation of the pound, that was now complete
by the issue of the florin. What further steps might be
taken for the development of the decimal principle must be
matter for ulterior and mature deliberation.
