SERIOUS CHARGES AGAINST A

SHAREBROKER.

( FROM A CORRESPONDENT.
LEEDS, FEB. 3.—The greatest surprise was created in
Leeds to-day by the apprehension of Mr. H. J. Marcus, of
the firm of Marcus, Naylor, and Co., on a charge of forgery.
The examinations so far have been conducted before the ma-
gistrates in privacy, but the facts of the case are understood
to be that the name of Darnton Lupton, Esq., late Mayor of
Leeds, had been attached to a transfer of some London and
Croydon Railway shares without his knowledge, the attesta-
tion to the signature being by Mr. Marcus. Oa apprehend-
ing Mr. Marcus, we hear that he made a desperate atter_npt
at self-destruction, and it was only by the activity of Mr.
Read, of the police force, who dashed the bottle of laudanum
in pieces, which the unhappy man had just raised to his lips,
that the attempt was frustrated. Mr. Head's hand and Mr.
Marcus's face were both cat in the struggle.

After the examinations of to-day the ease was adjourned,
and the prisoner remanded until Thursday.
Another unfortunate feature is, that a pocket-book be-
longing to another firm in the town, which had been missing
for some time, was found upon his person. Mr. Marcus was
not a member of the Stock Exchange, but held the office of
chairman of the Sharebrokers' Association. He is also one of
the honorary secretaries of the Leeds Mechanics' Institution,
and had hitherto been well respected among most of the re-
spectable inhabitants.
(ERO3I ANOTTIER CORRESPONDENT.)
LEEDS, FEE. 3.—Considerable excitement has been caused
in Leeds to-day by the apprehension of Mr. Marcus, the
vice-chairman of the Leeds Association of Sharebrokers, on a
charge of fraudulently effecting the transfer of railway stock.
We learn that some other charge of equally serious cha
racer was produced ; and ho is remanded for further exami-
nation, till the secretary of the railway company is enabled
to arrive in Leeds with additional evidence.
The association with which Mr. Marcus is connected is
not the Leeds Stock Exchange, he having been refused ad-
mittance into that Exchange some months ago.

MURDER OF CAPTAIN SHEPHERD, RDYAL ARTIL-
LERY, AT THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPB.—WOOLWICH, FEB. 3.
—An official letter was received this morning, at head-quar-
ters, at Woolwich, announcing, in the following terms, the
death of Captain Shepherd, of the Royal Artillery, by the
hands of an assassin :—" Port Victoria, December 1, 1845.
Sir—lt is with feelings of deep regret that I have to re-
port, for the information of the Lieutenant-Colonel com-
manding, the death of Captain Shepherd, at Port Victoria,
at about a quarter past two o'clock on the afternoon of
the 29th of November. He cams by his death from a
gun-shot wound through the body, when passing through
the camp, opposite the quarters occupied by wheeler William
Long, Royal Artillery, who is now a prisoner on suspicion
of being the assassin. Wheeler Long was marched from
this port yesterday, under a strong escort, to Graham's-town,
there to await his trial for the murder. Captain Shepherd's
remains were interred this day, with military honours, at
Fort Beaufort.—l remain, &c."
A report prevails in the Woolwich garrison that Sir
George Murray, the Master-General of the Ordnance. has
tendered his resignation. The Marquis of Anglesee,
or MAjor-
General Sir C. Napier, is spoken of as his successsader.

ANOTHER CONVERT TO THE FREE-TRADE BIEA-,-
SURES OF SIR ROBERT PEEL, IN PER,SON"
OF D. W. RUSSELL, ESQ., M.P. e4OR :17
STAFFORDSHIRE. ee,
•
A meeting of the freeholders and electors' of the above::
division having been called, by placard, to to held at thet7-:,
Town-hall, Leek, on Tuesday, the 3d inst., at twOre at -noon:-)rle:
at which it was announced that the Members foitlkediviirtertt..j!ece'
C. B. Adderley, Esq., and D. W. Russell, Esq., intended
state their views and intentions on Sir Robert Peel's com-
mercial policy, and also " hoped to hear what might be the
feelings and opinions of the electors;" at the time appointed
the hall was crowded by electors, and in a short time the
adjoining market-place and streets ware densely crowded by
the inhabitants, anxious to hear the opinions of the Mem-
bers on this vital question. After waiting three-quarters of
an hour, the meeting became very impatient, and appointed
a deputation of gentlemen to wait upon the Hon. Members,
who were snugly located at a neighbouring inn, and from
their prolonged absence it was thought were indifferent about
meeting the electors. In a few minutes, however, the depu-
tation returned, accompanied by the two Hon. Members.
The chair having been taken by J. Bateman, Esq., of Kuy-
persley, a motion was made that an adjournment take place
to the Market-square, whereupon D. W. Russell, Esq. (one
of the Members), begged to make a few observations.. He
stated that he came down expecting only to meet his friends
(his usual Conservative supporters), and that he was not
prepared to discuss the question of the corn-laws, neither did
he think it would answer any good purpose—(Cries of "Oh,
oh I")—but he would state that since his election his views
on this question had undergone a change, and he should now
support the free-trade measures of Sir R. Peel.—(Cheers.)
C. B. AnnuRLEY, Esq., the other Member, being called upon
to state his views, said that his opinions on this matter
remained the same as when he had the honour of being re-
turned their representative, and he still considered it his
duty to oppose any further alteration. Here the pressure
near the door became so great that an adjournment became
inevitable, and the Hon. Members were warmly urged to
address the multitude in the Market-square. This, however,
they decline 1, whereon Mr. James Aleop, through one of the
windows, announced to the crowd that they would imme-
diately be addressed from the steps of the Red Lion Inn,
whither he and a number of gentlemen adjourned.
In the meantime the Members very quietly retired to the
house of John Cruse, Esq.
No reschition having been come to in the hall, Mr. Alsog,
silk-manufacturer, after an able speech in favour of free-
trade, moved that the Members be requested to give their
hearty support to the free-trade measures of Sir Robert Pee!.
Mr. John Russell, another extensive silk-manufacturer, se-
conded and supported the motion in a speech of considerable
length and ability, which, on being put, was carried unani-
mously. Cheers having been proposed for the Queen, the
Duke of Wellington, Sir Robert Peel, and D. W. Russell,
Es(le M.P. (the free-trade Member), were all nobly re-
sponded to, and the meeting quietly dispersed.

MONEY MARKET and CITY NE WS.'
CITY, TUESDAY EVENING.

TlMES.—People here are looking with some anxiety to
the proceedings of the House of Commons for the informa-
tion when the report of the Committee on railways may be
expected; and no hint whatever being given respecting it,
they begin to suspect that it is intended to defer it till after
Friday, the last day for receiving deposits, in order that the
parties who have these payments to make may not be stimu-
lated to any undue exertion, or otherwise by finding that
they do, or do not, come within the rule to be laid down by
that Committee, but depend upon their own judgment and
upon their own resources. It is a species of consolation to
those who, having themselves nothing to do with these
railway speculations, yet are suffering from their injurious
influence upon the transactions of regular trade, that it must
be fully known in the course of this week what money
will be required for the payment of the deposits, and
that the bankers will then be able to tell precisely
how far they can venture to assist their old customers, who
have been kept off by this temporary pressure and un-
certainty. What is paid in up to Friday
inclusive may not
all be ultimately required, as there must be many companies,
strong enough for that preliminary step, who will not ulti-
mately obtain their Bills, and must re- distribute the funds
provided as their qualification. The greater portion of those
funds, too, which belong to the successful applicants, will
come into the market next week for investment; so that
whatever apprehension may be felt respecting the future calls
of the more fortunate companies, a present relief to the market
may be confidently expected. This is so distinctly seen by
a few of the leading and more sagacious capatalists, that
while the rest were under the influence of an alarm which
induces them to keep all their available means in reserve,
they have continued steadily to make purchases in all de-
scriptions of securities, and have proved by these operations
one main cause that the market has been on the whole so
well sustained, the extreme depression of Consols never hav-
ing, in point of fact, gone below 1 per cent. on the current
prices of this day.
If the crisis is safely passed, of which there exists now at
least a reasonable prospect, it will be a proof that monetary
affairs are under prudent management in the City. Many
were of opinion a few days back that it was impossible for
the new system of banking, by which a limitation is placed
upon the issues, to weather this storm. That remains, of
course, to be proved ; but in the mean time those who watch
what is going on will bear their testimony •to the greater
degree of caution which this limitation has induced among
the monied interest. All concerned in discount transactions,
from the Bank down to the smallest discount broker, have
had an unusually difficult part to play during the last five
weeks, the main point being, in all cases where accommoda-
tion was asked, to get at the real grounds of it, and on the
least suspicion of its having originated in railway business,
to reject it, such parties being doubly' objectionable, as
liable to be embarrassed themselves, and to be the cause of
embarrassment in others. It made no difference what the
character was of the security offered,. for if applicable to a
railway purpose the assistance was usually declined. At the
Bank of England, as a uniform rule, this taint was declared
to be fatal. _ .

Besides the mere amount of the deposits, other disclo-
sures of an interesting kind must be made after Friday, and
the public may expect to find in the instances of new com-
panies of thest undoubted character—companies in which
subscription-or many times the amount from responsible
parties were tendered—that they are unprepared with the
funds for their deposits. For this the various boards and
provisional committees will have to thank their own grasp-
ing and sordid spirit, which induced them to hold back the
issue of shares for their own private advantage, until they
were caught in the storm, and were unable to place them at
all. Had they allotted their shares freely, and sought no
advantage over the other holders for themselves, which
honour and common honesty alike counselled, they would
have kept on their course safely, whatever the result, and
have escaped the reproach, which now awaits them, of hav-
ing ruined themselves by their own avarice. and folly, and at
the same time actually marred the prospects of many under-
takings of acknowledged public utility.
The New York Democratic Review Ontains' in its usual
spirit, a contrast between the commecial policy of Great
Britain and the United States to the disadvantage of the
latter, designed to show that the high duties in America tend
to produce the mischievous results that might arise from a
natural calamity. As such a calamity the failure of the
English crop is regarded, as its effect is to diminish the con-
gumption of cotton, and to reduce the price of the raw ma-
terial. Now, the consumption of cotton by Great Britain,
as can be proved by official tables, does not exceed that by
the United States, and yet the consumption of the latter is
kept down by the artificially high prices occasioned by the
tariff. The markets present the singular contradiction of -an.
universal lament on the effect of the English harvest on
cotton, while an equally potent cause of reducing the value of
the great staple exists in the United States.

The Government broker resumed his purchases to-day on.
account of the National Debt Commissioners, and laid out
194,000/. in Reduced, and 2,0001. in Three per Cent. South.
Sea Annuities, 1751. This stock very seldom makes its ap—
pearance in the market. The original capital was only'
2,100,0001., and it is now nearly extinguished. The usual
purchase of 5,0001. for the savings banks was also made.
The Exchequer-bill market has received strength by a fur—
chase by the Chancery broker to the extent of 20

The course of exchange at New York on London is

and America being 109 23-40 per cent., it follows that the

exchange is 0.83 per cent. against England. But h
quoted exchange at New York being for bills at sixty
days' sight, the interest must be deducted from the above
difference.

There was no great alteration in the foreign exchanges to-
day, but,
if anything, the rates were a little higher thaa
last post.

We are authorised to state that no such letter as that
quoted by the Morning Herald on Tuesday has been sent by
Mr. Smythe to his constituents.
FORTY SHILLING FREEHOLDS.—The 30th of Jan. ha
now past, and no freeholds, hereafter purchased, will be
available for the register of 1846. Now, therefore, is a fit-
ting time to report the issue of the effort that has been made
in Newcastle and Gateshead, since the great free-trade meet-
ing
of the sth inst., to strengthen the anti-corn-law cause its.
North Durham and North and South Northumberland.
North Northumberland was not thought of in the first in-.
stance; but an application from Edinburgh, indicating the
anxiety of Scottish free-traders to " come over and help
them," induced the committee on the Tyne to extend their
operations farther than they had originally intended. The
result is that seventy-three freeholds have been conveyed to
free-traders residing in Edinburgh, Dundee, and other places,.
at an expense to the purchasers of 2,4571., exclusive of the
cost of conveyance, which also falls on the newly-made
Northumberland freeholders. In South Northumberland 123
freeholds have been purchased, and 118 in Durham. The
total number in the three divisions is 314, North, and the
total cost nearly 10,000/. Lord Brougham's spiteful speech&
of the 22d inst., justifies us in repeating (although the repe-
tition is, perhaps, superfluous), that not a penny of the ex..
penses has been borne by the League. The new freeholders
have themselves provided the purchase money, and, at
next registration, will become electors as legal and ceneu'u
tional as any in the land.—Gateshead Observer.
