A further sum of £33,000 in gold was taken into
the Bank yesterday.
The failure has been announced of Messrs. Seale
fold Brothers, connected with the trade of Leeds.
Their difficulties are supposed to have been pro-
((noel through their relations with the Leeds Bank-
ing Company.
The bills of Mr. John Abraham, of Alderman-
bury) engaged in the Leeds woollen trade, were
returned this afternoon.
The %Lure has been announced of Mr. C. Dose,
a large cotton speculator at Havre. The liabilities
are stated at £40,000, and the assets are thought to
be Considerable.
It is feared that the statements current yesterday
_that the affairs of the Leeds Banking Company are
lately to prove less unfavourable than was at first
121PPOSed will not prove to have been well founded.
It is now said there are bills for about £2,000,000
under discount, bearing the company's endorse-
Meet, of which a very considerable proportion will
Come back upon them. Under these circumstances
there is no reason to apprehend that the liquidation
Will be a long and expensive one, and that heavy
calla will have to be made on the shareholders. It is
further affirmed that the bank has been insolvent
fora long time past, and that the distress of the last
month or two was only the natural and inevitable
result of financial measures of more than doubtful
character, which have extended over a long period.
The biddings for £300,000 in bills on India took
place yesterday at the Bank of England. The pro-
portions allotted were—to Calcutta £177,700, to
Bombay £120,000, and to Madras £2,300. The
minimum price was, as before, ls. 111.1. per rupee
on Calcutta and Madras, and is. lltd. on Bombay.
The 6pplications within the limits amounted to
£980,000. Tenders on Calcutta and Madras at 2s.
will receive about 23 per cent., on Bombay at 25. Id.
about 60 per cent., and all above these prices in
full. These terms indicate a diminished demand
for remittances to the East. Ou the last occasion
the lowest of the successful tenders was 2s. 10. on
Calcutta and 2s, 1/d, on Bombay, and the applica-
tions amounted to £1,300,000.
The Committee of the Stock Exchange have ap-
pointed the following special settling days :
Monday, 26 h of September, in the European Cen-
tral Railway, for bargains entered into on and after
the 23d of April; Tuesday, the 27th of September,

ference Shares,

Company have made a call of £5 per share, £2 101
Payable on the 15th of October, and £2 103 on the

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT.—This Day.

OLD COURT.
(Before Mr. Byron Pigott.)

THE CHARGE 0)' ILLEGALLY RECEIVING A LUNATIC.

Henry Wilken, a surgeon, surrendered to answer an ins
dictment charging him with illegally receiving a young lady
named Eliza Mitten, a person of unsound mind, without
having any authority or license from the Commissioners
of Lutrtcy, under the statute of the Bth and 9th Vict., for
the better protection of persons of unsound mind.
Mr Giffird appeared for the prosecution; Mr Metcalfe
defended.

It appeared that the lady in question was of weak in-
tellect, and having become a patient of Dr Wilkin, he
received her into his house, and kept her under restraint
and confinement, and treated her as a person of un-
sound mind. But she contrived to make her escape, and
was found wandering about until taken care of by the
police, when Dr Wilkin claimed her as his patient, and
the present proceedings were instituted under the
statute against the defendant for not having complied with
its provisions. A number of witnesses were now called,
who spoke to the kind and humane manner in which he had
always treated the young lady.

The learned Baron ordered judgment to be respited until
