LATEST CITY INTELLIGENCE.
CITY, 4.30 r.m.

The market for Consols has closed for the week,
in a dull and quiescent state. The latest prices are
941 for money, 93} for the sth December, and
93f for the settlement in January.
The directors of the Panama, New Zealand, and
Australian Royal Mail Company have issued a
notice this afternoon to the effect that they do not
propose convening another general meeting this
year. The accounts, as the shareholders are aware,
are made up once during the twelve months, and
are presented at the annual general meeting,
held in May or June ; therefore, a meeting at
at this period of year is only required when the
operation of an ad interim dividend is to be sub-
mitted for consideration. The receipts for freight
and passage money on the Panama line, which, for
the three months from December to March, averaged
£2,900 a month, have since been maintained at the
monthly average of £4,300. .

The following are the closing quotations of some

" Voluntarily, conscientiously, and with much pleasure

from our own observation and experience when we say
that it removes pain as if by magic from all parts of the

diarrhoea, and removing the premonitory symptoms of
cholera. It is used both internally and externally, with
the best effects, and none who have once tried it would
willingly be without it constantly in their houses."—

Sudden Death of the Mayor of Bath.

A very tragical event took place at Bath last
night. For some years past it has been
usual to have weekly " penny readings," which were
introduced into the city by the originator of them,
the Rev. James Fleming, formerly incumbent of All
Saint's, Bath, but now of Camden Chapel, Cam-
berwell. These readings have been most suc-
cessful, and have always been crowded. The
local authorities have sanctioned them by their pre-
sence, and either the mayor or some leading citizen
has usually presided. Last Friday evening the newly-
elected Mayor, Mr. Francis Slack, took the chair
in the presence of a very large number of people
assembled in the beautiful room of the Guildhall, a
building erected from the designs of the well-known
Inigo Jones. His worship was observed to grow
suddenly faint. Three medical gentlemen—Messrs.
Spender, Barter, and Gore—who happened to be
present, immediately ran forward, but their assist-
ance was unavailing. The mayor was dead. Death,
in fact, had been instantaneous. He was laid out
in the Council Chamber, and the sight of one
so well known, who but a few minutes before had
addressed " his fellow-citizens," thus lying life-
less with his robes of office still about him,
caused the most profound and painful im-
pression. Mr. Slack was a solicitor in very
large practice, and in that capacity he took a very
prominent part in the proceedings connected with
the Road murder, being, we believe, convinced—
though, as it now turns out, incorrectly—that the
father of the murdered child was the criminal. As a
politician, he had taken an active Part as a moderate
Liberal: Ile was elected mayor for the first time on
November 9of the present year. He had entered
upon the duties of his office with extreme assiduity,
and had on Thursday presided at the distribution of
prizes in connection with the Oxford local examin-
ations. It was then noticed how fagged Mr.
Slack looked, but no one apprehended that he was
seriously ill, or that so sad a tragedy was close
at band. The death of a mayor while in office has
not occurred at Bath for very many years.

THE ENGINE-DRIVERS' STRIKE.

At the Carlisle City Police-court on Wednesday
six engine-drivers--viz., George Scott, Isaac Pegg,
Robert Cockburn, Joseph Smith, John Haney, and
John Mason, appeared, under summons, to answer a
charge of leaving their work as engine-drivers on the
Newcastle and Carlisle section of the North Eastern
Railway, without giving a month's notice, according
to the agreement they had entered into and signed.
The magistrates ou the bench were the Mayor and
Mr. Thos. Nelson.

Messrs. Nanson and Clutterbuck, solicitors, ap-
peared for the company ; the men were defended by
Mr. Roberts, the " colliers' attorney-general." Mr.
Nanson said the men were summoned for leaving
their employment without notice—some of them,
indeed, while they had their engines with steam up
and ready to go out. This was part of a concerted
action which took place over the whole of the North
Eastern system, and engine-drivers in other parts of
the country had been summoned and prosectited, and
it was a matter of public notoriety that in many
cases they had been convicted. In these cases now
before the bench, however, he had last night received
a letter with the following instructions from the
North-Eastern Company :
" If necessary, you should kindly explain to the
magistrates that as the illegality of the men's pro-
ceedings has been fully established by the decision of
the magistrates in other places, and as the railway is
is now nearly at full work again, the directors have
no wish to act in any other than the most lenient
manner towards the men in fault ; more especially
as the most of them will be severe sufferers through
the loss of their employment, and that no doubt
many of those who acted as they did were instigated
to take so unwarrantable a course by the leaders of
the unfortunate combination."
Under these circumstances the company did not wish
to press for convictions, and, indeed, he believed
that in two of the cases the men had made applica-
tion to be restored to their employment, and one or
both of them had been re-engaged. If the bench
thought proper, therefore, he should allow the pro-
ceedings to drop.
Mr. Roberts disputed the accuracy of the state-
ment contained in the letter read by Mr. Nanson
that " the illegality of the men's proceedings had been
fully established." All the magistrates had granted
cases to be carried before men of superior position,
higher intellect, and more legal knowledge, and until
those cases were fully decided by the judges of the
land the legality of the proceedings could not be con-
sidered as decided. He was there to defend the men,
but was ready to withdraw if the railway company
withdrew, or to go on if they went on. He expressed
a hope that by the manifestation of an amicable spirit
a settlement of this dispute would be brought about.
The summonses were then withdrawn.

THAMES.

AN UNMITIGATED SCOUNDREL.—JarneS Newman,
a labourer, about 27 years of age, was brought be-
fore Mr. Paget charged with being disorderly in the
Carlton Arms publichouse, at the corner of Devon-
shire-street, opposite the Great Eastern Railway,
Globe-road, l‘lile-end.

It appeared from the evidence of Mary Black, a
bar-woman, in the service of Mr. Hugh Cotter,
the landlord of the Carlton Arms, that the prisoner
called there yesterday afternoon, and called for a
pot of malt liquor, which she refused to part with
until it was paid for. He made use of abusive
language, reached over the bar, .and took the quart
of " half-and-half" from her, and he and his com-
panions drank it. The bar-woman demanded the
money for it, and he made use of fearful language,
which she could not repeat, and then turned on the
taps of the cordials gill the brandy and wasted the
liquors. He remained in the house making a dis-
turbance until the landlord returned, and was then
given into custody.
Mr. Hugh Cotter, the landlord of the Carlton
Arnie, said the prisoner had been a source of re-
peated annoyance to him for a long time. He had
forbidden him the house and refused to serve him
with anything. The witness then gave utterance
to some of the disguesting language used towards
his bar-woman, and which the prisoner repeated in
his presence. He never heard worse language in
his life. The prisoner was an unmitigated scoundrel.
Mr. Paget said it was not to be endured that a
fellow like the prisoner was to enter a respectable
publichouse and expose a young woman of decency
and respectability to his brutal insolence, and to use
language to her which was too disgusting for her to
repeat. The prisoner was a ruffian of the worst
class, and no doubt a terror to those licensed vic-
tuallers who kept orderly houses. He fined the
prisoner 405., and, in default of payment, to be im-
prisoned 14 days.

SUGAIL—OnIy a moderate amount of business has been
done in West India, but fully late rates are current for
superior qualities.
COFFEE.—Colonial descriptions have been in very
limited request, and superior qualities are a shade cheaper.
RICE.—A very limited business has been reported, con-
sequent upon the smallness of stocks in the hands of
importers and the enhanced rates demanded.
COTTON. —There has been a better demand, but without
any material change to note in the rates obtained at the
late public sales.

TALLOW.—The market has been only moderately active,
but a fair demand has been experienced, particularly for
forward delivery. P.Y.C. on tho spot is quoted 449 6d,
and last three months' delivery 45s 6(1 per cwt.

THE CATTLE PLAGUE.—It appears from the
official return that during the week ending April 20, 1867,
two fresh outbreaks of cattle plague, embracing five attacks,
were reported; one on premises containing three cows at
Bakewell, Derbyshire, and the other on a farm having a
stock of 28 cattle at Barton-on-Humber, Lincolnshire. In
the former case one cow was attacked and was killed by
order of the inspector ; in the latter, four steers contracted
the disease, three of which were killed and one died. No
healthy cattle wore slaughtered during the week through
having been in contact with infected animals.

SHIPWRECK— OFF LYTIIA:II.—The schooner Cathe-
rine, of Fleetwood, William Thomas, master, which sailed
from Lytham for Holyhead, with a cargo of coal, on Friday
last, has been wrecked. The vessel proceeded out all right
until she got to No. 3, buoy, when she ran aground in
the Benson Channel. A flag of distress was hoisted, and a
small boat proceeded to the vessel, rescued the crew, and
brought them back again to Lytham. At the time the Cathe-
rine grounded the wind was iu the north-west, and before
there.was a chance of her floating the sea broke over her
with great force. She is now becoming a total wreck. The
Catherine belonged to Mr. Richard Gardner, corn merchant,
of Preston, and others. Both the vessel and carge were in-
sured.

Itow.ands' three great preparations for the hair, the com-
plexion, and the teeth are known in all quarte, s of the
globe. Their famous "Macassar Oil" has been °mint r-
felted iu France, Germany, and elsewhere, but none of ,he
s,urious preparations have possessed the extraordinary
propertit s of the genuine article. Rowlands' "Kalydor-
for the complexion has retained its prominent place among
fashionable cosmetics, notwithstanding the numerous new
articles introduced for the complekion. The "Odonto" for
the teeth is highly prized b, thousands who have used to
other dentifrice or years. Rowlands' great success durin;
the past two generations, and their present prominent
position es manufa .turers, may justly be attributed to the
exc.llent character of their articles, and to the fact that,
unlike many other proprietors of established fame, they
do not allow their cosmetics to deteriorate in quality.—

WEST FLANDERS.

The report of the directors states, in reference to
the claims of the preference and original share-
holders to the division of any sum that might re-
main for dividend after paying the interest, 51 per
cent., on the preference shares and Bs. 9d. (or 5 per
cent. on £8 155.) to the original shareholders, that
the question bad been submitted to eminent law-
yers in England and Belgium, and the opinion of
all of them, varying somewhat in positiveness, was
in favour of the original shareholders. The statutes
of the company provided that in the event of a dis-
pute between the shareholders the question should
be submitted to three arbitrators in Belgium, whose
decision should be final. A holder of preference.
shares having raised the question, it had been sub-
mitted, with the usual formalities, to three arbitra-
tors appointed by the Tribunal of Commerce at
Brugel. The decision of the arbitrators was in
favour of the original shareholders, and the direc-
tors hoped that this decision, according as it did
with the best opinions they could take, had finally
set the question at rest. The statement of accounts
for the past half-year showed that after providing
for the fixed charges, there remained a balance of
£7,034, out of which the directors proposed to pay
4s. 91 per share, payable as usual on and after the
15th of May next, and to carry forward a balance
of £6BO. Since the last meeting the directors had
paid £1,231, the balance due for carriages and
trucks, thus closing that account. The Socio 6

THE Elk GINE..DRIVERS' STRIKE.

At the Carlisle City Police-court on Wednesday
six engine-drivers---viz., George Scott, Isaac Pegg,
Robert Cockburn, Joseph Smith, John Haney, and
John Mason, appeared, under summons, to answer a
charge of leaving their work as engine-drivers on the
Newcastle and Carlisle section of the North Eastern
Railway, without giving a month's notice, according
to the agreement they had entered into and signed.
The magistrates on the bench were the Mayor and
Mr. Thos. Nelson.

Messrs. Nanson and Clutterbuck, solicitors, ap-
peared for the company ; the men were defended by
Mr. Roberts, the " colliers' attorney-general." Mr.
Nanson said the men were summoned for leaving
their employment without notice—some of them,
indeed, while they had their engines with steam up
and ready to go out. This was part of a concerted
ac: ion which took place over the whole of the North
Eastern system, and engine-drivers in other parts of
the country bad been summoned and prosecuted, and
it was a matter of public notoriety that in many
cases they had been convicted. In these cases now
before the bench; however, he had last night received
a letter with the following instructions from the
North-Eastern Company :
" If necessary, you should kindly explain to the
magistrates that as the illegality of the men's pro-
ceedings has been fully established by the decision of
the magistrates in other places, and as the railway is
is now nearly at full work again, the directors have
no wish to act in any other than the most lenient
manner towards the men in fault ; more especially
as the most of them will be severe sufferers through
the loss of their employment, and that no doubt
many of those who acted as they did were instigated
to take so unwarrantable a course by the leaders of
the unfortunate combination."

tinder these circumstances the company did not wish
to press for convictions, and, indeed, he believed
that in two of the cases the men had made applica-
tion to be restored to their employment, and one or
both of them had been re-engaged. If the bench
thought proper, therefore, he should allow the pro-
ceedings to drop.
Mr. Roberts disputed the accuracy of the state-
ment contained in the letter read by Mr. Nanson
that " the illegality of the men's proceedings had been
fully established." All the magistrates had granted

higher intellect, and more legal knowledge, and until

sidered as decided. He was there to defend the men,
but was ready to withdraw if the railway company
withdrew, or to go on if they went on. He expressed
a hope that by the manifestation of an amicable spirit
a settlement of this dispute would be brought about.
The summonses were then withdrawn.

The Etendard publishes the following telegram

—" Stockholm, 23d.—The Duke of Dalecarr
h apo-
plexy. a,youngestt
brother of the King of Sweden, has been struck w
All hope is lost of saving the life of the prince,
who had just completed his 36th year."
Mr. liarford Mellor asserts that he has discovered
the remains of King Alfred, which have now boon buried
966 years. The bodies of Ethelbald and Ethelbert, Kiug
Alfred's two brothers, lie buried in Sherbourne Abbey.
Mr. Mellor feels confident that the royal remains are now
lying in the gilt mortuary over the chancel of Hyde-parish
Church, near Winchester, and the two leaden plates found
by him, with the King's name upon them, are now in the
hands of the vicar.
THE TURRET SIIIP WYVERN.—We are requested
to state that a report regarding her Majesty's ship Wy
vern,
referred to in our Irish Correspondent's Letter appearing
on the 23d inst., is entirely without foundation. The ves-
sel did not prove dangerous or unmanageable, and was nut
sent into the Channel in pursuit of Kirwan, as stated.
A. PARISIAN ANoNniA.—A lady, supposed to
bo a Javan, is now setting Paris by the ears.
She is from
five to six and twenty. Her complexion is of a warm
golden tint, like Florentine bronze. She is never clad but
in a black dress, made high, and ending at the neck in a
row of large coral beads of a blood red, and at her wrists
with bracelets of the same material and hue. From be-
neath her cap, a sort of beret or Scotch bonnet—black
also, and encircled with a row of coral beads—flow long
and thick tresses, so black that they are blue. She is
never seen on foot. Her "Victoria" is drawn by a pair
of ponies black as ebony, at a pace which makes the
the pavement smoke again. The biack and red of her
costume and equipage, added to her bronzed complexion,
invest her with a sinister and somewhat diabolical air.
She is known only by the designation of " La Dame au
CoraiL" It is said that she spends much of her time
playing on a species of guzla, or else practising with a
saloon pistol at a target, which target represents a female
figure, of blonde complexion, about the size of the largest
dolls; lastly, that she is from Java, and lives exclusively
on fruit and preserves. She is said to have blown out the
brains of one of her slaves who entered her apartment un-
summoned. But the most remarkable circumstance about
her is that day or night the shutters are closed, and her
apartment illuminated with candelabras. At night she
sings plaintive melodies more like wailings than set tunes,
and she smokes opium and sleeps on panther skins. She
is said to bo the widow of a great personage in the island of
Sumatra, who had committed suicide after an outburst of
jealousy on her par!, caused by his suspected attachment
to the wife of an English naval offic.—Paris Paper.

LLANELLY.

A Wharncliffe meeting of this company was held
yesterday at the offices, Great George-street, West-
minster ; Mr. J. Biddulph in the chair.
Mr. Markby, the solicitor, read the head of a bill
for granting further powers to the Llanelly Com-
pany, and to enable them to give their dock as se-
curity for £50,000, which the Harbour Commis-
sioners of Llanelly intended borrowing from the
Loan Commissioners, with the view of securing
better harbour accommodation for that place.
After a long discussion it was agreed, on the
motion of Mr. HELEN, seconded by Mr. FOWLER,
that the bill be approved, with the exception of the
part relating to the agreement with the Harbour
Coinmissioners of Llanelly.

LLYNVI AND OGMORE.
A Wharncliffe meeting of this company was held
yesterday at the Great Western Hotel, Padding-
ton ; Mr. A. Macgregor in the chair.
The Solicitor read the heads of a bill, authorising
the company to raise additional capital to the extent
of £lOO,OOO, with the usual borrowing powers, and
to sanction traffic arrangements with the South
Wales Mineral Railway Company.
The CHAIRAAN said the necessity for increased
capital was caused by an incorrect estimate of the
amount required for new works in connexion with
the harbour and docks at Porthcawl, and for ad-
ditional rolling stock. The necessity for additional
rolling stock implied the fulfilment of their expec-
tations as to the increase of traffic, and he believed
it was likely to exceed their expectations. The
works at the port were almost completed, and their
prospects when completed were exceedingly good.
The inner basin would have a depth of water of 29
feet at spring tides and 18 feet at neap tides.
A resolution approving the bill was carried, and
the proceedings terminated.
