GENERAL STEAM NAVIGATION COMPANY. The
eightieth half-yearly meeting of the shareholders in
this company was held yesterday, at their offices, 71,
Lombard-street—John Wilkin, Esq., in the chair. The
report of the directors and a statement of the accounts were
read to the meeting, which gave groat satisfaction to the
shareholders, and both were unanimously received and
adopted. The customary dividend of Hs. per share, being
at the rate of 10 per cent. per annum, and the usual bonus
of 2s. Gd. per share, were declared. The cordial thanks of
the proprietors were then voted to the chairman and direc-
tors for their able and zealous services in the management
of the company's affairs, and the proceedings terminated.
r,ADVERTISEMENT.]—HoIIowsy's Pills.—The dark and
dreary days of winter depress the mind and disorder the
body ; to the former condition occupation yields the best
relief, for the latter state Holloway's Pills are safe and cer-
tain remedies ; they cleanse the blood from every taint, the
body from every noxious matter, and exert such a general
good effect upon the system, that indigestion, biliousness,
headache, dimness of sight, loss of appetite, debility, and
nervousness disappear under their influence. These pills
may be relied upon by both sexes, under all climates and :
re
circumstances. As a family medicine they are invaluoa,
because they may be fearlessly administered the moment
invaluable,
long
pain or indisposition is perceived, and thus avert
illness and its many annoyances.

A singular result has attended the musical com-
petition opened by the Prefect of the Seine in
November last for choruses without accompaniment,
intended for the communal schools and adult classes
in Paris. Fifty-two pieces were sent in, of which
nineteen were considered worthy of a second and
more intimate examination. The jury awarded the
three gold medals of 300 f. each, for the three best,
to Nos. 135, 137, and 136, in the order named. It
turned out that all three were the composition of
the.same.competitor, Prince Edmond de Polignac.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET

ROBBERIES AT THE FIRE LAST NlGHT.—Walter Lee, de-
scribed as an engineer, living in Dorrington-street,
Leather-lane, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with steal-
ing a breast-pin last night at the fire at Saville House,
Leicester-square.

Robert Ward, a compositor, in the Metropolitan Police
Information-office, and residing at 4, Essex-place, Old St.
Pancras-road, said he was in Leicester-square last night
witnessing the fire at Saville House, when he felt a touch
at his neck, and on putting up his hand he felt that his pin
was gone, and immediately seized the prisoner's hand,
which was on his breast. The prisoner tried to get away,
but he prevented his doing so, and gave him into custody.
At the Vine-street police-station the prisoner told him
that he had made a mistake, and that he would have to
pay for it.

Fraser, 322 A, said that on taking the prisoner into
custody he said he knew nothing of the prosecutor's pin.
He was searched, but the pin was not found.

Mr. Tyrwhitt remanded the prisoner for a week.

Thomas Owen; a lad, who said he was a slater, residing
in Hamilton-yard, New Cut, Lambeth, was next charged
with stealing a silver watch of the value of £6 from the
person of Mr. Henry Barton, chemist, of No. 300, Holborn.
The prosecutor said he was standing in Leicester-square,
opposite the fire, about 10 o'clock last night, when he felt
a pull at his watch, and on putting his hand down felt the
chain attached to it, and which was also attached to his
waistcoat, stretched tightly out under the arm of the pH-
prisoner, who was standing in front of him. He asked the
prisoner what he was doing, and he tried to get away, and
at the same moment the chain fell in front of him (prose-
cutor), the watch having been detached from it. He kept
close to the prisoner, and gave him into custody.
Bolton, 594 A, said that hearing cries of " Police," he
went to where the prosecutor was standing in Leicester-
square, and took the prisoner into custody, but he did not
find the watch.

The prisoner—All I have to say is that I was pushed by
the crowd.

Mr. Tyrwhitt committed tho prisoner for trial.
It is a noticeable circumstance that notwithstanding the
immense number of persons present to witness the fire the
above were the only charges brought before the magistrate.

Diana took up the running at the turn beyond the Stand
and carried it on into the straight, where the Abbott, who
was first off, but was pulled back into second place, went
to the front, and won easily by six lengths ; three lengths
divided the second and third, and two lengths separated
the third and fourth ; the others "spread-eagled," were
preceded by Jamie Taft fifth, The Captain's Little Maid
sixth, and Maid of Lorn seventh. An objection was lodged
against the winner, on the ground of his having been in a
training establishment, contrary to the conditions of this
race ; but the case was not decided last evening.

Easter Monday Volunteer Review.

DOVER, Tuesday Night.
The report of the contemplated selection of Dover
as the theatre of the forthcoming review of the
volunteer corps of the Metropolitan and South-
Eastern District on Easter Monday has been en-
thusiastically received here. Without loss of time a
requisition, very influentially signed, was) sent to
the Mayor (Captain W. Noble, R.N.), desiring
that he would call a common hall of the citizens, to
concert measures with a view of inducing the au-
thorities in London to confer this honour upon the
town. His worship having promptly complied
with the requisition, the meeting was held at the
Town Hall, and was attended by a numerous in-
fluential body of the inhabitants, including many
volunteers. In the unavoidable absence of the
Mayor, W. R. Mummesy, Esq., J.P., Deputy-
Mayor, took the chair.
STERIKER FINN'S, Esq., moved the first resolu-
tion :

That, in the opinion of this meeting, Dover possesses
prominent advantages for a combined military, naval, and
volunteer display ; and, considering the facilities afforded
by its having two direct railway communications with the
metropolis, it is expedient that measures should be taken
for inducing the authorities to select it as a place for hold-
ing the volunteer review on Easter Monday ; and this
meeting pledges itself to use every endeavour to carry out
this object.
Mr. FINNIS stated that he had received telegraphic
messages that day from Mr. Knight, on behalf of
the South-Eastern Company, and from Mr. Forbes,
on behalf of the London, Chatham, and Dover
Company, instructing him to inform them that
both companies were willing to afford facilities for
bringing the volunteers to Dover equal to those
afforded by the Brighton Company in taking them
to Brighton. (Cheers.)
Major DICKSON, of Waldershare, seconded the
resolution, which was carried by acclamation.
Sir LUKE SmITHErr then moved the next resolu-
tion, which appointed a committee for adopting
measures to attain the end proposed.
R. REES, Esq., seconded this resolution, which
was carried unanimously.
J. G. CHURCHWARD, Esq., moved a resolution
for opening subscriptions to defray all necessary
expenses ; and a vote of thanks to the chairman
closed the proceedings.
The Deputy-Mayor and Town Clerk of Folke-
stone attended the meeting.

Colpoys Dacres, C. 8., was undocked at Portsmouth
on Saturday, after receiving a new metal lining to
her screw shaft tubing and other repairs. Yester-
day she left Portsmouth harbour on a three hours'
trial of her machinery, under the supervision of
Capt H. Caldwell, C. 8., commanding the Ports-
mouth Steam Reserve, and staff. This proving quite
satisfactory the ship afterwards returned to the har-
bour and was made fast alongside the dockyard,
where she will be completed in cabin and other fit-

of America in which the oil is found is called by a
perversion of the Spanish El Dorado, the " Oil
Dorado." Nine-tenths of the speculative energy
and intellect of this city have been absorbed in this
new mania. Petroleum companies are established
by scores and hundreds, and " Shoddy' himself is
pushed from his stool, as a thing of the past, by the
new Oil King, who elbows him out of society-, out-
glitters him in diamonds, outdinners him at Del-
monico's, and counts his gains by millions, while
" Shoddy" was contented with hundreds of thou-
sands. Many of these " ile aristocrats," as they
are called, are illiterate Germans and Irishmen, and
the airs they give themselves, and the ludicrous con-
straint in which they find themselves when they are
for the first time imprisoned in the trammels of the
biendances, afford abundant scope for the amuse-
ment of the laughing philosophers as well as of the
cynics of society. America exported to Europe last
year petroleum to the value of po,oco,oco, which,
although no more than sufficient to keep the war-
torch blazing at its present rate of incandescence for
ten days, is a commercial fact that foreshadows how
great a future trade may arise in this article when
the wells are more extensively pumped, and its
mechanical as well as chymical value is more
thoroughly investigated. As far as it goes, petro-
leum has undoubtedly served by its acceptance in
Europe to abate the premium on gold, and thereby
to maintain greenbacks at a higher rate, as com-
pared with the precious metals, than Mr. Chaie or
Mr. Fessenden could have hoped for under other
circumstances.

By advicn from Hamburg the price of gold is 423 per mark
and the short exchange on London is 13.5 per £1 stcrlin
Standard gold at the English Mint price is, therefore, about
5-10ths per cent. dearer in Hamburg than in London.
The course of exchange at New York on London for bills st
60 days' sight is about 244) per cent., and the premium on
gold 127 per cent. At these rates there is a small profit on
the importation of goNI from the United States.

The report of the directors states that the total
expenditure on capital account to the 31st of January
last amounted to £5,051,560, including £223,009
expended on shares in other companies. The ex-
penditure on account of renewal of permanent way
during the half-year amounted to £17,534,
.and the
directors proposed to charge £lO,OOO against the
present and each future half-year's revenue on this
account, which, after careful consideration and con-
sultation with the engineer, they felt assured would
be amply sufficient to meet all requirements ; and
thus, while the actual expenditure might be increased
or diminished as circumstances required, it would
be more equitably divided among the shareholders
than by charging each half-year's expenditure against
revenue es it occurred. The directors had consi-
dered it necessary in the interest of the company
to apply to Parliament for various powers as to
new lines, amalgamations, subscriptions, &c., and
they were now promoting five bills for that pur-
pose. The revenue account for the half-year end-
ing January 31 last showed that £238,105 had been
received, against £230,595 for the corresponding
period, showing an increase of £7,510. The total
expenditure amounted to £105,824 against £10,602
for the corresponding half of the preceding year,
showing a decrease of £4,778. The net receipts
amounted to £132,280, against £119,993, showing
an increase of £12,287. The surplus from the pre-
ceding half-year amounted to £1,225, against
£1,086, and the available balance to £136,575,
against £121,079 in the same half of preceding year.
The interest on loans amounted to £25,003 against
£24,575, and the sum available for dividends to
£111,572 against £96,505, showing an increase of
£15,067. After payment of £8,553 for dividend on
the 5 per cent. guaranteed stock, and £96,942 for
dividend at the rate of 51 per cent. per annum on
the guaranteed and preference stock and on the or-
dinary stock, there remained £6,077 to the credit of
the next half-year. The dividends would be pay-
able on the 23d inst.

boots of the prisoners ; but he should clearly show that
there was this comparison, and that they completely cor-
responded. The only other piece of evidence was the
statement of the prisoners made to policemen in whose cus-
tody they were. These statements were always watched
with great jealousy. No inducement had been held out to
them, but they were not cautioned. All the prisoners had,
to an extent, admitted they were there, but all denied firing
the gun, but Keynard- said it had gone off by accident.
This was the outline of the case, and he asked the jury
carefully, anxiously, and honestly to discharge their duty.
Witnesses were then called, who bore out the statement
of the learned counsel.

Mr. Poulden addressed the jury for the prisoners, point-
ing out a very doubtful point as to the corroboration of the
accomplice, and particularly a denial by a policeman that
he had asked him questions and examined him, and stated
to him that if he would become a witness he would get off
clear, which the accomplice had positively sworn had taken
place.
The learned Baron summed up with the greatest possible
care, explaining everything where difficulty arose, and told
the jury they might find all or any of the prisoners guilty
of an intent to murder or do grievous bodily harm, or to
resist their or his lawful apprehension, or they might acquit
them. .
