past has been the terror of jewellers, silversmiths, and
pawnbrokers in the south of England. It was Goodenough

and it proves to be the mune man wbo, within the last
twelve months, hem committed 'several greet robberies
at Alton, Ernsworth, Gosport, and other Saone

knows by the name of " Oaptsia Smith." and the furniture
of his house was packed up in readied= for removal to

determined fellow, and three of the officers who =needed

The annual general meeting of this company was
held this afternoon, at the oßlen, New Browlotion ; Mr.
H. A. HANIUT is the chair.

- -
The 01411111.i7, in moving the adoption of the report
end in declaring a di•ideod of 10 per oent, stated that
from the prosperous condition of the bank during the short
time that it had hese established and the brilli►nt prospects
it bad before it, there was every probability that the divi-
deed would never be less. _

The report was unanimously adopted, sad the directors
and stiditors re-elected.
- .

The meettog was then made special. whets resolulioos
were agreed to reduciog the nominal value of the shares
to 101. a share, and locreasior the number in pro-
portion. It was deo determined to issue the remaining
2,000 shares st a premium of 25 per coot.
A nordial rote of thanks to the chairman and directors
concluded the proceedings.

GARIBALDI AT CAPRI:au—He never looked to
more advantage than in that humble life of Lltprera, when
people came and went—some, old and valued friends, w►ose
presence warmed up their bost's heart ; others, mere
puling aoquaintseces, or, as it might be, not even that;
worshippers or curiosity seekers—living where and bow
they could in that many-roomed small house ; dieter into
the kitchen to hal their coffee ; sallying out to the garde°
to pluck their radishes ; down to the brook for acres; or to
the seaside to catch a fish, all more or le•s busy in the midst
of a steams* idler's= ; for there wu not, beyond providing
for the mere wants of the day, anything to be done. The
soil would net yield anything. There was no cultivation
sutaide that little garden, where the grand old soldier
delved, or rested on his spade•handle as he Inroad his gam
over the eta, doubtless thinking of the dear land beyond it.
At dinner—end what a strange meal it was—all met, full
oftbe little incidente of an uneventful day. The veriest trines
they were, but of interest of those who lisheeed, and to nose
more than Garibaldi himself, who liked to ►ear who hid
bee° over to Maddalena, ■ad what sport they bed ; or
whether Albanesi had Wee an► mallet, and who it wee

Not a word wee 'pokers of the political everts of the world,

chants, of No. 29, Sobo gnere, collector. was charged be-
fore Mr. Knox with embezzling several sums of mosey
received on amount of his employee'.
Mr. Edward Lewis. of Grist Marlborougb-street, ne-
peered for the prosecution. and in opening the case raid the
tors oarried on an extensive Wainer aa beer merchants
rirrhuo-equare, and the prisoeer had been in their employ
about three moothe as traveller and collector, and daring
that time had embezzled money mid defrauded them
to the mount of about 4001. A part of the system carried
on by the prisoner bad been to order larger quantities of beer
to be sent to the customers than th ordered. and when
they stated that they had not orderd so much to state that
he would send for it, which he did, and then diaposed of it
for his own benefit, and in other came be had sent in ficti-
tious orders for beer.
_

Mr. Koox said the charges against the prisoner would
then be fraud, embezzlement, sad robbery.
Mr. Lewis observed that he should prove the three charges
aphid the primate, but that today hsahould coofios
self to two came of embezzlement, sad the. ask for am-
nia:id.

Mr: Edward Hall, of the King'i Arms, Dukeutreer,
Grceveacrequare, said that in Febnue7 het he was in-
debted to Messrs. Manley and Marshall 6/. te. 6d. for beer
supplied. At the latter sad of March or the begiuniag at
April he paid the prisoner the amount and took his receipt
for the mme. On the sth of April he wee indebted to the
same firm 6f. 7a. 6d, acid a few days afterwards paid the
prisoner the unmet sad took his receipt for it. The receipts
produced were the same.
Mr. Francis Marshall, one of the firm, said that it was the
duty of the prisoner, who was employed by them se col-
lector and traveller, to pay over all moans received by him
on his return to the office. The prisoner had mew paid over
the sums mentioned by Mr. Hall, and stated that he had
never received them.

Henry Dawes), 301 A, said !reheard Mr. Marshall uk the
primmer yesterday whether he had received any moons*
ant he said, "Only one from Mr. Robinson." Ou Mr. Mar-
shall mire( him whether he had got received other sums,
he said he knew he had been doing wee , that he had re-
mired other sums, and that if Mr. would give him
time he would pay hire.
Mr. Knox remaaded the primmer for a week.

LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

A GERMAN VIEW OF THE CONFERENCE.
According to the National Gazette of Berlin the
London Confteenee would fall into the strangest
error if it imagined that it had anything else to do
than to present propositions tending to the re-
establishment of peace, and would commit an in-
credible abuse of power if it were to seek to erect
itself into a tribunal to judge the belligerent
powers, and prescribe to them their movements.
Prussia, it says, seeks to obtain the oonsent of
the powers who signed the London protocol to the
arrangements destined to terminate the dil
pute with Denmark ; but it did not send its pleni-
potentiaries to London to receive a peace already
made. " Peace," saj s the Berlin journal, with a
singular forgetfulness of historical facts, "is always
concluded by those who made the war." He who
wishes to decide (it continues) a contest between
combatants must himself have arms in his hands.
If it were sought to take from Prussia the "well-
wonfrnite of all its sacrifices," and to constrain it by
force, Prussia would receive that as an unheard-of
insult, and the position of the Duchies would be-
come much more difficult.
The 11 ortliern German Gazette says :

The treaties of 1861.2 have been insufficient to protect
German nationality in Slaswig and Holstein, and it is not
Germany but Denmark which has broken those treaties.
The question has, then, again become se open one, as it
was before the protocol of London. Bat the fault
then committed by diplomacy consisted princi-
pally in what the Conference of London decided
sovereignly respecting the lot of the Duchies, with-
out bearing the wishes of the country, without
consulting them in their stipulations, although the right of
these wishes famed, or ought at lust to have formed, the
fundamental idea of those treaties. Shall we now fell
spin into the same error I' We do not believe it. On the
contrary, we are coons:need that in the Conference Prussia
will energetically raise her voice for this r:ght of the
Duchies, and that if there is to he a positive basis for the
negotiations, devoid of basis hitherto, it can neither be
sought nor found except in the wishes of the country.

The following appears iu the France :—" On

Accounts from Horsens state that the troops which
have arrived there are quite young soldiers, well
dressed and newly come from Silesia, but their
arrogance and effrontery know no bounds. They
enter the shops in parties of ten or a dozen, and
lay hold of anything that strikes their fancy
without thinking of paying. Sometimes they even
add raillery to their pillage, telling the poor shop-
keepers 'that the King of Denmark will pay for
what is taken.' if by chance they find a door shut
against them, they break it open, and is some
houses they have even assaulted the inhabitants,
when the latter have not immediately given them
what they oak for."

IRONMASTERN QUARTERLY MEETING.

The usual meetings of the ironmutera of this
district for the current quarter oommeoced at Wolverhamp-
ton yesterday. There was not a numerous attendance,
and very little disposition was manifested ou the part of the
iroumastors to eater into engagements, the strike of the
colliers so thoroughly deranging business, and caring
restriction of the produatiou, that there woeldneerearily be
great uncertainty about the delivery of roe if retracts were
accepted. In these crematories, the traesactions wirer
• very moderate seer, the balk of whatever raiser is to be
doe being reserved for the meeting at Birmingham, on
Thursday. In the rune of the oriversatiou it was stated
that there is a fair quantity of orders in hand, chiefly from
home but that the demand for export is re-
stricted. It is ht, too, that if the colliers were all in
work, and opal in full supply, that there would not be
• sufficiency of orders to keep the works in full operation.
The market for the sale of pig iron was said to be ex-
tremely dull; so gales were merged today; and aot-
withatriodbeg the very oraderthr reductioe which has
taken pros in the make prior have Dot improved.
The miner's strike, of course, formed • principal topic of
dimmer@ at this meeting, and • very decided opinion was
aspersed that the mischief which it is doing the trade in
this quarter will never be reoorred. On the Wolves-
hampers side of country—that is in the thin coal district--
• considerable number of the mes have gore into work, and
thews have iscreased in the rune of the last day or two ;
on the Dudley aide also, men have gone in ; such is the case
at Lord Dudley's pits and others in that locality. Much
gloom was east over the meeting yesterday, by the amours-
meat, soon after the sesembly had met, of the death of
Mr. Philip Williams. which event took place between one
and two o'clock. The general expression, full of feeling,
was—how much he will be missed, and how deeply his lois
will be deplored. Mr. Williams succeeded the late Kr.
Michael Girebrook as theism. of the Iroumareine
Association, and ever enjoyed the fullest crosfidenos of the
trade.
