CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
The payments on the 4th of the month have made
satisfactory progress, and already a little relief is
experienced in discount circles. The current terms
for the best bills are 5Z and 6 per cent.
The prospectus of the Royal Naval and Military
Banking Corporation (Limited) has been issued,
giving in detail the mocha operandi and the objects
of the directors of the corporation. The capital
proposed is £1,000,000, which is to be raised in
10,000 shares of £lOO each, of which sum it is not
proposed to call up more than £2O. Tho deposit
is £1 per share, and the payment on allotment is
to be £4 per share; the residue of calls on capital
invested is not to exceed £5 per share, and not
called for at intervals of less than three months.
The object for which this corporation is established
cannot fail to strongly recommend itself to the
favourable notice of the officers of both
the army and the navy, whose special at-
tention is invited to the detailed prospectus,
'which will be found in another place. The distin-
guished names of the gallant gentlemen who form
the directory is guarantee enough that the objecte
of the corporation will be fully carried out. We
learn that during the few days the corporation has
been.before the public, that a considerable portion of
the capital stock has been applied for, and that the
application list will close on the 9th inst. It will be
noticed that the Board of Directors which at first
was exclusively formed of naval and military gen-
tlemen, now includes the names of several commer-
cial men of standing.
The dealings in the Foreign and Colonial Pro-
duce Markets during the last few days have not
been very extensive owing to the unfavourable
weather. Sugar, coffee, and rice have been in fair
request at full rates. Ia fruit and spices there has
been very little animation, while a better tone has
prevailed in the tallow market; a fair amount of
business having been done for both present ana for-
ward delivery.
The Bark of England return for the week end-
ing Wednesday shows a further accumulation of
gold, bet there is a reduction in the reserve of notes,
and an augmentation in the other securities, owing
to the recent activity in discount circles and the
negotiation of loans prior to the payment of the
dividends. Subjoined is our analysis:—

This was a suit by the husband, an insurance agent, at
Norwich, for a dissolution of the marriage on the ground
of the adultery of his wife with the co-respondent, a wealthy
farmer, who died last May at the age of 77 years. The re-
spondent, at the time the alleged impropriety took place
was only 16 years of age.
Bertha Bates said she had formerly been in the service of
Mr. Farrow, who lived at Memdham, in Norfolk. She had
seen frequent acts of impropriety between Mr. Farrow and
Mrs. oodhouse. She was in the habit of going into his
study in her night-dress, when he used to act indecently
towards her. When Mr. Farrow used to enter the apart-
ment the respondent used to sham fainting fits, and after-
wards call for pudding and cheese. (Laughter.) The
witness then swore to having seen the adultery committed.
Cross-examined—She was dismissed in consequence of
having an illegitimate child, but Mr. Farrow afterwards
took her again into his service. She was now a married
woman. Mr. Farrow left Ler a legacy in his will, but he
after wards revoked it.
Henry Yallop said he had seen Mr. Farrow and Mrs.
Wodehouse in 1856 commit adultery in a barn.
Several other witnesses gave corroborative evidence,
which closed the case for the petitioner.
Mr. Sergeant Parry then opened the case for the respon-
dent, and contended that the whole story told by the wit-
nesses, Bertha Bates and Henry Yallop, was false in every
particular. With respect to the circumstances under which
the witness Yallop saw what he had stated, he should show
it was a physical impossibility, and therefore entirely un-
worthy the slightest belief. The learned gentleman then
called the following witnesses :
Mrs. Elizabeth Parsons, mother of the respondent, said
her daughter was about 16 years of age when she went into
Mr. Farrow's service, She occasionally went to the house.
She remembered her being ill while there, and after one
year and eight months she left and was then put to learn a
business. She then resided with witness up to her mar •
riage, and after that she and her husband opened a small
general shop, at which Mr. Farrow used to have some of
his goods. Wodehouse left his wife on the 9th of January,
1857, in consequence of a quarrel about her refusing to give
him the key of the bureau in which the money was kept.
He broke it open, took the money out and never
returned but for a very short time. Mr. Farrow
was present when this quarrel took place. Atter he had
been away 20 weeks he sent her £l. After he left Mr.
Farrow used to come into the shop. While her daughter
was unwell Mr. Farrow did not, as a daily rule, come into
the room while her daughter was confined to bed.
Cross-examined—Wodehouse never accused her daughter
of an intimacy with Mr. Farrow.
Mrs. Vernet, a widow, said he had charge of Mr. Farrow's
house while he was unwell in 1858. She knew Mrs.
Woodhouse, as she used to do needlework for the house;
but when she brought anything home she never saw Mr.
Farrow. The mother of Mrs. Woodhouse always came
with her to receipt the bills, and during the five years she
was in charge of Mr. Farrow's house she never saw
Mrs. Woodhouse in Mr. Farrow's company longer
than five minutes at a time. During the whole time
of her residence in Mr. Farrow's house she never
saw him commit the slightest impropriety towards
any person. She knew the girl Bertha, and would not
not believe her on her oath. She was dismissed by Mr.
Farrow for bad conduct. She had four years experience of
her character. Mr. Farrow told her she was born under
an unlucky star, and that Ehe was doomed to destruction for
telling lies.
Re-examined—Mr. Farrow took Bertha into his house
when she was four years old from pure motives of charity,
as she was an orphan.
Mr. Copeman, a solicitor to the late Mr. Farrow, said—
since the commencement of the present proceedings, the
witness Yallop came to him and told him he bad never seen
anything improper between Mr. Farrow and Mrs. Wode-
house. Ho afterwards came again to him, and having
made a counter statement, asked him (witness) to which
statement he should stick, and he told him emphatically to
stick to the truth.
(The case was proceeding when we went to press.)

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE.

MEROPOLITAN RAILWAY SCHEMES.

In the copyof the report of the joint committee of
the Lords and Commons which appeared in 'I he
Sun of Wednesday, the Tottenham and Hampstead
Jacction (Extension to Charing-cross) should have
been included in the second paragraph with the bills
which should not be proceeded with during the
present session. In place of the Bth laragraph
should have been the following :
"Two of the schemes—viz., the Charing•cross
(Northern) and the Tottenham and Hampstead
Junction (Extension to Charing-cross), which are
designed to be more or less connected with the
Northern lines, and which pass through the centre
of the metropolis to the Chariog-cross Station—are
open to tha objection that they tend to create a
great central statio❑ at Charing-cross."
_

Instead of the 10th paragraph should have been
the following :
" As to all the schemes above referred to the com-
mittee would observe that in recommending their
postponement they have been strongly influenced
by the consideration of the great public incon-
venience and pecuniary loss to the inhabitants of
the district that must unavoidably be caused by the
interruption of thoroughftires during the construc-
tion of works of this nature ; and as the schemes
which the ccmmittee (concurring generally in the
views of the Lords' committee of last session) re-
commend to be proceeded with are of a very great
magnitude and extent, they have thought that any
schemes which did not appear to be of more than
ordinary urgency might properly be postponed for
future consideration."
At the commencement of the 13th paragraph,
instead of the Hammersmith, Midland, and North
Western, it should have been the Hampstead, Mid-
land, and North Western.
