The Murder of Mr. Briggs.

A rumour was very prevalent in the Metropolis this
morning that a telegram had been received from New York
announcing the capture of Muller, but we can positively
contradict the story. No telegram of the nature described
has been received by the police authorities, although they
are daily in expectation of one coming to hand• Letters
have been received from Inspector Kerresy announcing his
arrival at New York in advance of the Victoria,

HARVEST PROSPECTS.

SUSSEX.

Harvest operations throughout the county of
Sussex are now rapidly drawing to a close, and it is
anticipated that in a few days longer, with a con-
tinuance of the present highly favourable weather,
the whole of the crops will have been securely
garnered. The hay crop was scarcely an average
one, owing to the long continued drought, and the
price of this commodity is on the rise, with the
prospett of still higher figures as winter approaches.
The great bulk of the wheat crop has now been
safely housed, and where thrashing has taken place
it has proved of excellent quality, having in several
instances produced 541 b per bushel, with a yield of
ten sacks per acre. On the whole, it is considered
that there will be more than a full average crop of
this particular grain. Barley has not been very
extensively circulated in Sussex of late years, but
that sown on the best lands is highly spoken of,
and likely to turn out well. Oats are rather an
even crop, those early sown promising well—
whereas those put into the soil late are rather short
in straw, thin, and of light quality. The quality
of the potatoes generally is good, although the
bulbs, owing to the want of moisture, are unusually
small. The late rains have effected a wonderful im-
provement in cereals of all descriptions, which now
look fresh and promising, although in some quar-
ters the rains have come too late to be of much ser-
vice. The prospects of sheep keep during the win-
ter are much more encouraging than they were a
few weeks ago—and should genial weather be now
experienced, with a mild autumn, ample provision
may yet be obtained for the ensuing winter and
spring—the earth, from theleng-continued drought,
being in a condition to insure quick vegetation.

VALE OF TOWY.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was
held at Llandovery on Wednesday; Mr. W. Camp-
bell Davis (deputy-chairman) presided. The ac•
counts 'thawed a balance in hand to be carried for-
warded to the next half-yearly account.
The CHAIRMAN moved the adoption of the report
and accounts, which was seconded and carried.
The SECRETARY stated that a reduction had been
made of company's debts during the past half.year,
and that it was proposed to pay off the remainder
of them in the early part of the ensuing year, when
a dividend of L 3 per cent. would be available.

ABERYSTWITH AND WELSH COAST.
The half-yearly meeting of this company was held
at the offices, Pridge•etreet, Westminster; Mr H.
Garteide in the chair.
The report stated that the disagreement and dis-
satisfaction that existed among the directors at the
last meeting had subsided, and had been succeeded
by perfect harmony end unity of action. The re-
sults of the past session of Parliament as regarded
the interests of the company had been satisfactory
and successful. The whole line from Machynlleth
to Aberystwith had been opened, and the traffic was
highly satisfactory. The directors propose to rein-
troduce in the next session of Parliament the bill
for establishing steamboat communication between
North Wales and Ireland. About half the land re-
quired for the line between Bnrmouth and Portma-
, dock had been purchased, and on the remaining land

LAW INTELLIGENCE—This Day,

SHERIFFS' COURT.
(Before S. Joyce, Esq.)
HIGHLY I3IPORTANT TO PUBLIC COMPANIES.

Two cases occurred this morning in which the law
governing the legal transactions of public companies was
positively laid down by the judge. In the first case the
London General Omnibus Company sued a Mr. M'Evoy
to recover damages. One of the company's managers
attended, and his Honour asked where was the company ?
Manager . I appear on its behalf. lam not an attorney.
The company generally employs an attorney, but this is a
small case.

His Honour—A public company can only appear under
seal or by attorney. Do you appear under seal ?
Manager—No, but I can soon get it.
His Honour—The case must be struck out. Plaintiffs
are nousuited.

In the second case, the London and South-W estern Rail-
w►y Company v. Robson, a clerk attended to prove an ad-
mission of the debt.

His Honour repeated his former remarks, and decided
that a public company must appear before the court in a
proper form.
Upon this the Clerk at once instructed Mr Buchanan,
wha enjoys an extensive and respectable practice in this
Court, and the case being quickly proved, costs were
allowed.

JUDGMENT DEBT QUESTION..-LAWRENCE V: JONES •

This was a commitment summons, and
.Mr Buchanan
appeared for the plaintiff, defendant being a corn meter of
Tower-street. The defendant admitted that he earned £7O
to £BO per annum.

Mr Buchanan informed the Court that the defendant
had already been sent to prison for this debt, and he
seemed determined not to pay this money. It was really
a very great hardship on the plaintiff to be kept out of
her money for so long a period, and perhaps the Court
would protect her.
His Honour pointed out to the defendant that he could
not do any good by going to bison, and that unless he
made some arrangement with plaintiff he would be sent to
prison for the longest period set out by the act of Parlia-
ment,—Ad j ourned

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
IN RE GOLDRING.

This was a meeting for proof of debts and choice of
assignees in the matter of W. H. Goldring, described as of
Lombard-street, and Woburn-place, Russell-square, mer-
chant.

Mr Phillips appeared in support of the petition, which
had been filed by Messrs Oppenheimer and Co., Watling-
street, merchant, who are creditors for about £l,OOO. The
bankrupt had traded extensively with the United States of
America. The assignees were chosen, as it had been
arranged that the proceedings should be carried on out of
court.

GREECE.

ATHENS, AUG. 29.

An insulting letter addressed to the King by a
member of the Opposition, gave riso to an excited
sitting of the Assembly on the 26th inst.

Exasperation prevailed in the capital, and pro-
tests were signed by large numbers of persons.

On Friday the Assembly expressed its indig-
nation at the letter by a majority of 193 to 27, 28
members abstained from voting.

LISBON, AUG. 29.

The Royal Mail Steampacket Company's ship
Oneida has arrived hero from Brazil, &c., and
will leave this evening for Southampton with 61
passengers, 547 rolls of tobacco, 250 bags of coffee,
and 147 barrels of tapioca. The Parana left St.
Vincent for Brazil on the evening of the 20th
August.

THE CONGRESS AT MALINES.
Yesterday, Monday, the 29th instant, the pro-
ceedings of this the Second Congress at Malines
were formally inaugurated; when—according to
L' Opinion Nationale, not only did M. Leopold de
Gaillard fail to make his appearance, but other
personages of far more importance were looked for
in vain—among these latter M. le Comte de Mon-
talembert, M. de Broglie, M, Cochin, and Monsignor
l'Eveque d'Orleane.

ITALY.

The Vorarlberg Gazette furnishes the following
further information relative to the intended Geri-
baldian rising in the Tyrol :
"The movement was to have broken out on the
27th inst. No one knows who are the auxiliaries
expected by the conspirators, for the people of the
country are not at all disposed to make fresh experi-
ments; they do not like the Piedmontese, and,
moreover, the country is sufficiently protected, the
forts aro armed and provisioned, and Verona is close
at hand. Any insurrectional attempt would, there-
fore, have been a senseless undertaking. Unfor-
tunately, it appears that the arrests have only com-
promised the soldiers and not the chiefs of the re•
volutionary army. The Government has certainly
been vigilant, but in the persons arrested we seek
in vain for the names of those who have for many
years been considered as the directing men."

STRATFORD.ON-AVON.

The report of the directors states that the balance
available for dividend amounted to £1,241, and
after paying all interest on debentures, preference
shares, and the general expenses the balance would
admit of a dividend of 7s Gd per share on the ordi-
nary shares of the company, being at the rate of £3
153 per cent. per annum, which the directors recom-
mended to be declared. The increase in the passen-
ger traffic, as compared with the corresponding half
of 1863, had been £989, which was attributable in
some measure to the number of visitors at the Ter-
centenary of Shakspere; but the directors thought
it was satisfactory that in the months of January,
February, March, and June, which were not affected
by the extra traffic, there had been a gradual in-
crease. The goods traffic had produced £453 more
than in the corresponding period of 1863. The tele-
graph on the whole line from Hatton to Stratford
had been finished.

STRATFORD.ON-AVON.

The report of the directors states that the balance
available for dividend amounted to £1,241, and
after paying all interest on debentures, preference
shares, and the general expenses the balance would
admit of a dividend of 78 6d per share on the ordi-
nary shares of the company, being at the rate of £3
153 per cent. per annum, which the directors recom-
mended to be declared. The increase in the passen-
ger traffic, as compared with the corresponding half
of 1863, had been £989, which was attributable in
some measure to the number of visitors at the Ter-
centenary of Shakspere; but the directors thought
it was satisfactory that in the months of January,
February, Maroh, and June, which were not affected
by the extra traffic, there had been a gradual in-
crease. The goods traffic had produced £453 more
than in the corresponding period of 1863. The tele-
graph on the whole line from Hatton to Stratford
had been finished.

BRISTOL AND SOUTH WALES UNION.

The engineer's report states that the works and
permanent way had stood well since the opening of
the railway, and continued in good condition. At
Ashley hill a new station had been constructed and
opened for traffic, and sidings for goods traffic had
been provided at Laurence-hill, Stapleton-road, and
the Ssvern piers. The Portskewet pier and plat-
forms had been completed and a landing stage was
permanently moored there. Buoys had been laid
down for marking out the passage across the rivcr.
The new ferry steamboat constructed for the service
arrived in June, and had since been satisfactorily at
work. The works upon the line had been finally
measured up and the accounts with the contractor
were agreed upon. The capital account to July 31
last showed a total receipt of £304,667, and an ex-
penditure of £363,448, leaving a balance against
capital of £58,781. The revenue account showed
the earnings of the line from September 8, 1863, to
July 31, 1864, to have been £11,322, and the ex-
penditure £11,077, leaving a balance of £245. The
interest account comprised interest to bankers, seven
months to July 31, £2,603, and on preference shares
paid in advance, £B6l, making a total of £3,464.

PRUSSIA.

Subjoined are the terms in which the Gazette of
Northern Germany, of Berlin, again speaks of the
visit of the King of Prussia to Vienna :—" We have
already had occasion to contradict those journals
which connect combinations of great political im-
portance with the visit of the King of Prussia to
the Court of Vienna. At present the accounts which
reach us from the Austrian capital not only confirm
what we then said, but inform us that conferences
between Count de Bismark and Count de Rechberg
have taken place on a ground much more real than
that of a policy of the future—namely, that of com-
mercial affairs. [n fact, there is nothing better calcu•
lated to put an end to all the adventurous suppositions
with which the world has been filled, and to throw
suspicion on the policy of the three Eastern Powers,
than to see those Ministers deliberate on the manner
in which the States under their direction may best
participate in the fruits which are only secured by
peace and the durable development of what now
exists. Conformably to those views, the reply sent
from this city to the Austrian note of July 28, rela-
tive to the commercial question, expresses a wish
that the Vienna Cabinet would set forth exactly
and in detail all that is thought desirable in Austria.
There is every disposition on the part of Prussia to
examine all these points, and to accede to them as
far as shall be possible."

JUDGMENT DEBT QUESTION,LIWRENCE V: JONES.

This was a commitment summons, and Mr Buchanan
appeared for the plaintiff, defendant baing a corn meter of
Tower-street. The defendant admitted that he earned £7O
to £BO per annum.

Mr Buchanan informed the Court that the defendant
had already been sent to prison for this debt, and he
seemed determined not to pay this money. It was really
a very great hardship on the plaintiff to bo kept out of
her money far so long a period, and perhaps the Court
would protect her.

His Honour pointed out to the defendant that he could
not do any good by going to Prison, and that unless he
made some arrangement with plaintiff he would be sent to
prison for the longest period set out 14y the act of Parlia-
ment,—Adjourned.

This was a meeting for proof of debts and choice of

chant.

Mr Phillips appeared in support of the petition, which
had been filed by Messrs Oppenheimer and Co., Watling-
street, met chant, who are creditors for about £l,OOO. The
bankrupt had traded extensively with the United States of
America. The fuel tnees were chosen, as it had been
arranged that the proceedings should le carried on out of

WIVENHOE AND BKIGHTLINGSE A.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was
held at Pontefract on Friday ; Mr R. Moxon in the
chair.
The directors, in their report, congratulated the
shareholders on the progress which had been made
in the formation of the line up to June last. Since
that time, however, the works had not been carried
on with the desirable rapidity, as the contractor
found difficulty in obtaining labour ; but well-
grounded hopes were entertained that the line would
be finished before the end of the year. In their
report the engineers stated that the earthworks
were finished throughout, with the exception of an
embankment at Alresford-creek ; a continuous line
of rails was laid from the junction at Wivenhoe to
Ford-bridge, and the building of the bridge was
proceeding satisfactorily.
The reports were adopted, and the two retiring
directors, Mr R. Moxon and Mr Westwood, were
re-elected.

of 1:647,494, and a balance of £2,303,
The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the
report, congratulated the shareholders on the im-
proved earning of the line, which, without those
derived from minerals, amounted to XlB 10s. per
mile per week.

After some conversation, in which Mr PENSON,
Mr PIERCY, Mr BANKS, and others took part, the
report was adopted, and a Dividend of 5 per cent.
declared on the preference shares.

The Courrier do l'Alyerie has received a first
warning for an article in which the writer endeavours to
render the Government responsible towards the populations
for the savage nets which have lately alarmed them, by
leading the public to imagine that it does not defend the
colonists against robbery and murder. Such remarks are
also looked on as showing a wish to excite a feeling of mis-
trust aeainst the authorities of the country.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.—This Day,

SHERIFFS' COURT.
(Before S. Joyce, Esq.)
HIGHLY IMPORTANT TO PUBLIC COMPANIES.

Two cases occurred this morning in which the law
governing the legal transactions of public companies was
positively laid down by the judge. In the first case the
London General Omnibus Company sued a Mr. Itt'Evoy
to recover damages. One of the company's managers
attended, and his Honour asked where was the company F.
Manager . I appear on its behalf. lam not an attorney.
The company generally employs an attorney, but this is a
small case.

His Honour—A public company can only appear under
seal or by attorney. Do you appear under seal?
Manager—No, but I can scon get it.
His Honour—The case must be struck out. Plaintiffs
are nousuited.

In the second case, the London and South-Western Rail-
way Company v. Eason, a clerk attended to prove an ad-
mission of the debt.

His Ilonour repeated his former remarks, and decided
that a public company must appear before the court in a
proper form.

Upon this the Clerk at once instructed Mr Buchanan,
wh) enjoys an extensive and respectable practice in this
Court, and the case being quickly proved, costs were
allowed.

ITALY.

The Vorarlberg Gazette furnishes the following
further information relative to the intended Gari-
baldian rising in the Tyrol :
" The movement was to have broken out on the
27th inst. No one knows who are the auxiliaries
espectcd by the conspirators, for the people of the
country are not at all disposed to make fresh experi-
ments; they do not like the Piedmontese, and,
moreover, the country is sufficiently protected, the
forts arc armed and provisioned, and Verona is close
at hand. Any inturreetional attempt would, there-
fore, have been a senseless undertaking. Unfor-
tunately, it appears that the arrests luve only com-
promised the soldiers and not the chiefs of the re-
volutionary army. The Government has certainly
been vigilant, b4t in the persons arrested we seek
in vain for the names of those who have for many
years been considered as the direct::ng men."

DISGRACEFUL OUTRAGE AT ST, GEORGE'S HOSPITAL.
—William Cox, a middle-aged man, was charged with the
following outrage at St. George's Hospital,
William Church, porter at the institution, said that the
wife of the defendant was brought to the hospital yesterday
morning in a state of fever, and admitted an in-patient.
Yesterday afternoon defendant came to see his wife, and
was intoxicated. He went to the ward where she was
lying and abused her, and the nurses put him out, and
called witness, who after requesting him to go repeatedly,
put him out three or four times, the defendant as often re-
turning. Defendant then seized him, and, throwing him
down, hurt him very seriously. Defendant was then taken
into custody. . . .

James Badman, 355 B, said that at 20 minutes past 4
yesterday afternoon he was standing at the Duke of Wel-
lington's statue, when he saw the defendant go up th
hospital steps when complainant held out his hand to pre-
vent his further progress. Defendant them laid hold of
him by each arm, and, twisting him round, threw him
down, falling on him. Complainant was insensible, and in
that state was carried into the hospital. He remained
unconscious for some time.

Defendant said he was very sorry. He had not intended
to hurt the man, but merely laid hold of him to prevent
him falling.
Mr Arnold—l am willing to suppose you did not intend
to injure the porter, but I think the offence of going drunk
to a hospital, disturbing the patients, and assaulting an
official very disgraceful, and I shall commit you for 14 days
to hard labour.
