NEW YORK, SEPT. 1 (Evening).

The New York Times asserts that General Butler,
in conjunction with the Attorney-General, will take
a prominent part in the prosecution of Mr. Davis.
A meeting has been held of the creditors of
Ketchum, when it was voted to accept a dividend
of 60 per cent.-50 per cent. to be paid by Ist No-
vember, and the remainder in three months. The
liabilities are said to be $4,000,000, and the assets
$3,000,000.

ness, but no provision will be made out of the
assets for the payment of E. B. Ketchum's forged

GUAYMAS, AUG. 20

The Imperialists occupied Hermansilla on the
12th, throwing open all the roada into the interior
of Sonora.

The Republican army commanded by Pesquiera
has joined the Imperialists. Pesquiera fled with 200
men.

AUSTRIA.

VIENNA, SEPT. 12.

An Imperial decree has been published to-day,
dissolving the old Transylvanian Diet and convok-
ing a new Diet on the 19th of November next.
The exclusive and only subject to be discussed by
the new Diet is the revision of the Ist article of the
law of 1848 on the union between Hungary and
Transylvania on the basis of the common interests
of both countries.

Field-Marshal-Lieutenant Count Creneville is
appointed the Government Commissioner of the
Diet.

The Debatte of to-day denies the rumour that the
Government intends to institute repressive measures
against the Press.

The same paper states that in addition to the
Gastein Convention, the text of which has already
been published, a special protocol has been drawn
up, wherein the two contracting parties engage to
negotiate within a stated time on the definitive
solution of the Schleswig-Holstein question. •

SPAIN.
MADRID, SEPT. 12.

The Epoca of to-day says :
" Prince Humbert must marry before Prince
Amadeus. The state of European politics is not
sufficiently consolidated to permit of a certain
rumoured affiance. It is also to be considered that
a marriage between the Bourbon and Savoy families
would cause a rupture with the Monarchical party,
which, in that case, would throw itself into the arms
of Don Carlos."

Mr. and Mrs. Windham Again.

The London correspondent of the Belfast News Letter is
responsible for the annexed scrap of gossip in reference to
this distinguished couple Mr. and Mrs. Windham ap-
pear determined to keep themselves well before the public.
The interesting heir of Felbrig Hall still drives tho coach
from Norwich to Cromer, and passes his leisure hours in
the society of cabmen and ostlers. A profound excite-
ment was created in Norwich the other day by the
appearance of Mrs. Windham en grande tenue. Had
the Princess of Wales driven over from Sandringham,
and promenaded the market-place, she could not have
received a greater ovation. The charming Agnes was al-
most mobbed by ladies and gentlemen who would no doubt
have been dreadfully offended had they been invited to
meet Mrs. Windham at a dinner or a croquet party. The
report soon got wind that she had come to Norwich to see
her husband, with the view of inducing him to sign some-
thing or other, but as her husband was at that precise mo-
ment on his way to Cromer with his coach she could not see
hhiiin.
rato Subsequently
however,and followed
deeming it
Certain sheof orderedhisfrie an
d carriage,
s,
better that they should not meet, sent an express after him
to Cromer, and he quitted the town a few minutes before his
wife entered it. In two years more, should he live, Mr
Windham will succeed to an estate of about £l,OOO a
year, which, of course, will devolve upon the child born to
Mrs. Windham a twelvemonth since. The existence of this
child of course destroys the hope of the estates descending
to Mr. Windham's other relatives. The costs of those pro-
ceedings in lunacy against Mr. Windham have at length
been ascertained and paid. It seems, that so far from
getting anything by them, their authors have had to
pay .£13,000, which has been contributed by Gen. Wind-
ham, the Marquis of Bristol, Lord Listowel, and one or
two others. Gen. Windham has not any property worth
mentioning in Norfolk; and when, at the late gaueral elec-
tion, he endeavoured to propose a candidate in the interest
of the Whigs, he could not get a hearing. How delusive
is the voxpopuli ! At one moment he was perhaps the most
popular man in England. The whole of the Norfolk estates
which Mr. Windham had the power of selling have been
purchased by a retired grocer in Norwich, named Kitten,
who succeeded in acquiring a large fortune during the
Crimean war by speculations in oil cake. The Lord Lieu-
tenant of the county and the principal families in the
neighbourhood have consented to recognise the new owner
of Felbrig Hall as one of the landed gentry, and luxe left
their cards for Mr. and Mrs. Kitton.

Two bales of this year's growth of Bavarian hops
have just arrived for Messrs. Wolton and 00., Hibernia
Chambers, Borough, and been forwarded by them to Evart
Evan's, Esq., Vale of Heath Brewery, Heath.

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE.

REDDITCH.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was
held at Redditch on Monday ; Mr. W. Millward in
the chair.

The report stated that the directors had been in
negotiation with the Midland Railway Company,
and had entered into a provisional agredment with
that company for the transfer to them of the Red-
ditch Railway property and effects on their guaran-
teeing a fixed dividend of 4 per cent. per annum in
perpetuity on the ordinary share capital, and on
their undertaking payment of the debenture debts
and other debts and liabilities of the company, and
the payment to the company, of £2,000 towards the
sum expended out of revenue on the capital account.
The report having been adopted, the meeting was
made special, to consider the proposed agreement
for a lease of the undertaking to the Midland Com-
pany in perpetuity.
_ _ _

Mr. GARDENER, solicitor to the company, read the
heads of the proposed agreement, and after a short
discussion the motion was agreed to nevi. con.

SCOTTISH CENTRAL.

The report of the directors states that the total

expenditure on capital account for the half-year was
£27,239 on the central line, of which £13,342 had
been paid on account of carriage and waggon plant,
£5,5751 on the Plean branch line, which was near
completion, and £4,326 on works and stations. On
the Dundee and Perth and Newtyle sections £44,186
had been expended during the half-year for new en-
gines, carriages, and waggons. The sum of £5,502
had been laid out on account of relaying and im-
proving the Dundee line. The total expenditure on
capital account during the half-year was £54,111.
The revenue account for the half-year showed that
£151,784 had been received, against £139,139 for
the corresponding half of the preceding year, show-
ing an increase of £12,645, of which £4,769 was for
goods and £7,338 for passenger traffic. The ex-
penditure, including interest on loans and preference
shares, amounted to £113,469 against £103,428,
showing an increase of £10,041. The sum available
for division was £38,314, out of which the directors
recommended a dividend at the rate of 7 per cent.
per annum on £1,045,000 consolidated stock,
amounting to £36,575, leaving a balance of £1,739
to be added to the surplus fund, making together
£8,349. But from-this was deducted £4,922 for
Parliamentary expenses, applicable to revenue in-
curred during the last session, leaving the total sur-
plus on Jan. 31 £3,427 to the credit of revenue.
The report also adverted to the bill now before Par-
liament for authorising the amalgamation of the
Scottish Central Company with the Caledonian
Railway Company.

it is interesting to turn to the report of an institu-

are constantly directed to the rescue instead of the

This Home was opened in April, 1864. It was designed to
take to the little ones whose charact r and circumstances
disqualify the for the Orphan Asylums, and whose tendar
age precludes thelr admission to the Itt fuges. Such are those
who, from neglect, are already on the road to ruin. Such are
those who have been deserted by their natural protectors and
left to beecome idle wanderers. Such are those whose
parents may have at one time or other received parish relief,
and who are now friendless orphans. Such are those whose
parents are breakers of the law, or are in prison, and who
train their children in the same path. Such are those whose
evil associations have already had their painful effect, and
must lead them to a life of crime and misery.
There are now 50 little inmates from about four years of
age to 10. There is room for nearly 10'', and the Committee
would joyfully see the Home filled at once ; they only wait
for the necessary subscriptions.

The mode of admission to the House is twofold,
Ist. By election of the subscribers. Poys thus admitted
are received free, boarded, clothed, educated, and taught till
they are
.11 years o' age.

Itith the view i o s. cure the election of the most deserving
cases, the Committe have from the first discouraged canvas-
sing, and they do not print any addresses of the subscribers.
'f he voting papers contain a description of each case, as care-
-lul y investigated by the Committee, and with this informa-
tion the subscribers are able to judge for themselves as to
those most eligible for free admission.

---21 By payment of ss. a week.-1-made quarterly in advance.
All children must be under 10 years of age at the time of
admission. Those received on payment are admitted at any
time as soon as approved by the Committee,
Elections of chicdren to be admitted free will take place as
frequently as the increase in the annual subscriptions will
admit, till the Home is full; they will then be held periodi-
cally
Forms of Application for the admission of children may be
had at the Home, and of the Honorary Secret try,

THAMES

CHLOROFORM.-Mr. George Gretton, a salt merchant and
drysalter, was brought before Mr. Paget, charged with be-
ing drunk and incapable of taking care of himself.
William Carter, a police constable, 78 K, said he was
called last night by a gentleman to a doctor's shop in
Salmon-lane, Limehouse, where he saw the prisoner, who
was helplessly intoxicated, and bleeding from a wound
over the eye. Ho took the prisoner, for security's sake, to
the station-house.

The prisoner, an elderly and gentlemanly looking man,
said the constable had made a mistake. Ho was not drunk
but chloroftirmed.

Mr. Paget—Chloroformed !--how ?

The prisoner said a gross outrage had been committed
upon him. He then addressed the magistrate in a familiar
manner, and said he was taking a walk last night with Mrs.
Maclaren, of the corner of Margaret-street, Commercial-
road. You know Mrs. Maclaren very well, indeed, con-
tinued the prisoner.
Mr. Paget—No, indeed ; I do not.

The prisoner—I thought she was well known to every-
body. A respectable woman, a widow. Well, sir, after I
left her, I was passing by Limehouse Church, and a man
accosted me, shook me by the hand, and said, "Well, old
fellow, how are you ?" t.t.l don't know you," I said, and he
put a handkerchief close to my face. It was impregnated
with chloroform. I fainted, I fell, I became insensible. I
know nothing more. This morning I found myself in the
station-house. I lost my watch, my purse, money, gold—
all my gold. I have only a few halfpence left.
Carter was recalled, and said the prisoner was most dis-
orderly drunk. He smelt his breath, and the, fumes of
liquor were plain enough.
The prisoner—I only took one glass of port wine. It
was the chloroform overpowered me. I don't find fault
with the police. I was treated with great kindness by the
police.

Carter—lt was not port wine which I smelt, but liquor.
The prisoner—I vomited, I believe.
Carter—You did. You were certainly drunk, sir.
The prisoner—Oh! dear, no ; it was chloroform. I have
been basely robbed.

Police-sergeant Brady, 42 K, a most respectable and
steady officer, and acting inspector at the Stepney station-
house, adjoining the court, saw the prisoner at half-past 12
last night, and he was labouring under the ordinary
symptoms of intoxication.
Mr. Paget discharged the prisoner, who thanked the
magistrate, and said he should look alter the villain who
administered chloroform.

LIFEBOAT SERVICES.—During the storms
of the past year 1864 the boats of the National Lifeboat
Institution have saved 432 persons from different wrecks on
our coasts. The Institution also expended £19,531 14s. sd.
in the same period on lifeboat eetablis4ments, in addition to
granting £1,569 as rewards for saving 69i shipwrecked per-
sons by its lifeboats, and other means.
The Committee of the Institution earnestly A t'PEAL to
the public for ASSISTANCE to enable them to meet the
continued heavy demands on the Institution's 140 lifeboat
establishments.

Contributions are received by Messrs. Willis and Co.,
Berries and Co., Coutts and Co., and by all the London and
country bankers; and by the Secretary, Richard Lewis, Esq.,
at the Institution, 14, John-street, Adelphi.

the chair.

The report stated that the directors had been in
negotiation with the Midland Railway Company,

perpetuity on the ordinary share capital, and on
their undertaking payment of the debenture debts
and other debts and liabilities of the company, and
the payment to the company of £2,000 towards the
sum expended out of revenue on the capital account.
The report having been adopted, the meeting was
made special, to consider the proposed agreement
for a lease of the undertaking to the Midland Com-
