TWELVE O'CLOCK.

The Money Market continues in a very active
condition, and the Bank minimum of 3 per cent. is
the general rate required by the bankers and brokers.
In a few exceptional instances 21 per cent. is taken,
but then the paper is exceedingly good and short
dated.
The Metropolis Sewage and Essex Reclamation
Company has been projected under a special Act of
Parliament for the purpose of utilising the sewage
of the northern area of the metropolis, the conces-
sion of which has been granted to Messrs. Napier
and Hope. The Capital required is £2,100,000 in
scrip certificates of £l.OO, to be hereafter divided
into shares of £lO each. The transfer is to be made
to the company on condition of the payment to Messrs. Napier and Hope, under the provisions of
the act, £50,000 in fully paid-up shares of the com-
pany, and a small contingent percentage of the net profits. The concession recites, that, in
the opinion of the board, the works proposed
by Messrs. Napier and Hope are calculated
tl. o effect the three following objects, namely
To dived the sewage from the Thames. 2. To
render it innocuous, by its application to owing
crops. 3. To realise the greatest money value of the
manure contained in it. The first article confers
Upon Messrs. Napier and Hope "the absolute and
exclusive right ta, and property in the sewage," for
a period of 54 years from the passing of the act, but
makes the following provision in reference to the
application of the net profits resulting from the
scheme after the expiration of four years from the
Passing of the act. Previous to the expiration of
that period, all the profit results to the company.
After deduction of the annual charge for "money
b°l‘r"red" and of the " working and establishment
expenses," the net profit shall be applied--Ist. In

MDLLE. ROSA BormEtTß.---The Imperial Court
of Paris has just heard an appeal against a judg-
ment of the Civil Tribunal of Fontainebleau in an action
brought by M. Pourchet, of Lyons, against Mdlle. Rosa
Bonheur, for breach of contract. In December, 1860, the
artist engaged to deliver to M. Pourchet a painting to be
executed expressly for him, at the price of 10,0001. As the
work was not sent at the specified time, M. Pourchet wrote
to complain. of the delay, and a long correspondence en-
sued, which ended in the absolute refusal of Mdlle. Bon-
heur to fulfil her engagement. M. Pourchet then com-
menced legal proceedings, and demanded 15,000 f. damages
for breach of contract, but the tribunal rejected this de-
mand, and condemned the artist to deliver the painting
within six months under a penalty of 20f. for every day's
delay beyond that time. Against this judgment Mdlle.
Rosa Bonheur now appealed, and repeated her refusal to
deliver the painting. The court quashed the judgment,
and condemned the appellant to pay M. Pourchet 4,000 f.
damages, with all costs of suit.
FORD'S THEATRE AT WASHINGTON.— Ford's
Theatre inside presents a scene of the greatest con-
fusion. All the properties, wardrobes, furniture, &c., are
piled upon the stage preparatory to packing and removing.
The purchasers propose to pay 10,000 dollars to Mr. Ford
this week, when the property will be conveyed to them.
Strangers in the city are continually calling and asking
admission to the building, but thus far none have been
admitted save a few members of the press. Notwith-
standing the close surveillance of the guards who have had
the theatre in charge the building has been roughly used.
Curiosity seekers have completely whittled away the
bench upon which " Peanut John" sat whilst holding
Booth's horse, and about a yard square has been
cut away from the green baize carpet, surrounding
the spot where Booth's feet struck when he jumped upon
the stage after shooting the President. One of these curi-
ous visitors entered the saloon adjoining the theatre, where
Booth took his last drink of brandy just before he murdered
Mr. Lincoln. The visitor inquired of the barkeeper, "Have
you the same bottle on hand out of which Booth drank
on the night of the assassination ?" " Yes, sir." "And the
same brandy in it ?" " Yes, sir." " Can I have a drink of
that same brandy out of that same bottle ?" "Yes, sir."
"Let's have it." The visitor tastes the brandy, makes a
wry face, and continues :—" And that's the same brandy

THE ATLANTIC CABLE.—Owing to the rough-
ness of the weather the coaling of the Great Eastern has
been delayed during the past week. No coal, however,
will be taken on board after Friday next, and on Satur-
day, at four o'clock, the Great Eastern will leave her
anchorage four miles below the Nore, for Valencia, whence
having made the splice with the shore end of the cable
she will probably start across the Atlantic on the Tues-
day following.
VERDICT OF MANSLAUGHTER AGAINST A RAIL-
WAY POINTS SAN.—On Saturday a coroner's jury returned
a verdict of manslaughter against Henry Bevistock,
a pointsman at the Great Western Railway Station at
Wolverhampton. He had entrusted the care of the switches
to a deputy, who turned the points the wrong way, and
caused a train to run on to a carriage siding, thereby killing
one of the porters.
