LIVERPOOL, AUGUST 5.

The screw steamship Great Britain, Gray, com-
mander, from Melbourne, on the 30th of May, ar-
rived yesterday afternoon, after a passage of 65
days.

She had MO passengers, including 23 infants
and Mr. G. V. Brooke, the tragedian; and 62
boxes of gold, containing about 82,1950 z.—
£328,000, on freight.

The mail steamer at Benares had cleared at Mel-
bourne for Point de Galie on the 25th of May,
with 48,825ez. of gold.

The papers we have been able to obtain are
only to the 29th of May, and the news is of the
most meagre description.

The Legislative Council at Melbourne had ap-
propriated £75,000 for the supply of water to the
gold fields. At Melbourne business continued with-
out improvement, and orders for the country trade
were extremely limited. Stocks of flour were heavy.
Sugars continued very firm, and in full demand
at full quotations. The Bendigo Advertiser reports
that the quantity gold sent to Melbourne by escort
had been decreasing to an alarming extent for a
few weeks. It attributes the falling off, how-
ever, to one of the temporary lulls incidental
to gold mining.
_ .

In the Geelong labour-market there had been
an active inquiry for all kinds of ordinary la-
bourers. Some classes of bush mechanics were
also in fair request; other classes in light demand.
Adelaide advices of the 27th May report the
markets quiet. Flour, £l5 10s. to LEG 53.

THE VIGOUR OF YOUTH RESTORED IN
FOUR WEEKS by Dr. RICORD'S ESSENCE OF
LIFE.
This wonderful agent will restore manhood to the most
shattered consti.ution, whether arising from self-pollution,
excesses, nocturnal emissions, the effects of climate, or natu-
ral causes. The time required to cure the most inveterate
case is Tour wcoka ; and, if used according to the printed in-
structions (which are very sin►ple). failure is impossible.
This life-restoring remedy should be taken by all about to
marry, as its effects are permanent. It is acknowledged by
the medical press to be the greatest discovery ever made.
Success in every case is as certain as that water quenches
thirst.
Dr. RiTord's Essence of Life is sold in cases, with full in-
structions for use, at Its., or four quantities in one for 335.,
and may be sent to any part of the world, carefully packed,
on receipt of remittance or post-office order payable to Prout
and Co.

NORTH-EASTERN.

The report of the directors etates that the increase
in the traffic receipts for the past half-year amounted
to £46,218, and the working expenses to £34,130.
The company had recently abolished express fares,
extended the system of return tickets, and increased
the number of passenger trains. The balance avail
able for dividends on the Berwick section amounted
to £190,317 ; on the Thirsk and Malton account in
the same section to £1,541 ; on the York section to
£73,671 ; and on the Leeds section to £20,704.
Out of these sums the directors recommend a dividend
at the rate of 51 per cent. per annul on the Ber-
wick ordinary stock, leaving £1,878; at the rate of
4 per cent. per annuli on the Thirsic and Malton
stock, leaving £541; at the rate of 4L- per cent. per
annum on the York ordinary stock, leaving £1,243 ;
and at the rate of £2 17s. 6d. per cent. per annum
on the Leeds ordinary stock, leaving £668.
The Rosedale branch and the extension of the
Cleveland line to Castleton were both opened in the
beginning of April last, and on the former a consi-
derable amount of mineral traffic has already been
conveyed. The bills to enable the company tocom-
plete the North Yorkshire and Cleveland Railway,
by extending it to Grosmont, to improve the
Whitby line by adapting it for locomotives through-
out, and to construct a line to Otley and Tilley, had
received the royal assent. The directors recom-
mended that a renewed application be made to Par-
liament next session for powers to form a line up
the valley of the Derwent from Blaydon to Con-
side, with a special view of accommodating the local
traffic. The most cordial relations continued to
exists between the directors and those of the New-
castle and Carlisle and Stockton and Darlington
Companies.

THAMES.

A CANDIDATE FOR A REFORMATORY.—John Martin,
a very small boy aged 9 years, who did not appear so old,
was brought before Mr. Woolrych, charged with stealing a
shilling and two pieces of crochet work value ss. the pro-
perty of his parents.
Edward Martin, a dock labourer, of No. 38, Grove-street,
St. George-in-the-East, said that the boy was his son, and
he was very sorry to state that, young as he was, he was a
most incorrigible thief, and that some time ago he stole a
shilling and expended it among his companions. For that
theft he was forgiven on his promise to behave better. On
Tuesday week the boy stole another shilling and his
mother's crochet work entrusted to her, and disposed of it at
one of those infamous nuisances called "having shops" for a
shilling. The value of the work was ss. He did not know
what to do with the boy, who had been away from his home
a week, and he was afraid he had been in very bad
company.
Mr. Woolrych said the prisoner made a promise to be a
good boy when he was before him sews time ago, but he
had gone from bad to worse, and there \vas no hope of his
amendment unless he was sent to a place where he would
receive good advice and a vigorous training. He sentenced
the prisoner to be detained for three years in the Industrial
School at Feltham, and that his father should pay ls. 6d.
per week towards his maintenance there.
The prisoner's fathei said he had been out of work four
weeks. _

Mr. Woolrych—l can't help it; ls. 3d. per week is a
very small sum. You must pay it.
TOBACCO SMIJGGLING.—Josoph Crocler, the cook of the
ship Epsom, was brought before Mr. Woolrych charged
with smuggling 41 lbs. of foreign manufactured tobacco.
Inspector Alston, of the Thames police, said he met the
prisoner in Old Gravel-lane, and as he appeared to be very
bulky, he stopped him and asked him if he had anything
about him liable to duty, to which he replied " Nothing,"
and was running away when he was stopped and searched,
an 41 lbs. of foreign manufactured tobacco was found con-
cealed on his person. It was fastened round the prisoner's
body. The tobacco was liable to a duty of 3s. sd. per lb.
Mr. Woolrych sentenced the prisoner to pay a fine of £2
55., the simple value of the tobacco, and the duty thereon.

THINGS NOT GENERALLY KNOWN.--A corre-
spondent requests us to inform our readers that the Lord
Chancellor receives £5OO for proroguing Parliament, and
the Mlle sum for opening the houses "by commission."

The report of tile directo:s states that tae £22,555,
added to capital during the half-year had been
chiefly expended on account of plant and of exten-
sions connected with the undertaking. The revenue
account for the half year ending the 30,h June ex-
hibited a gross income from all sources of £89,681,
earned at a total expense of £38,19', leaving a
balance of £51,484, which, after payingthe interest
and preferential dividends, would yield a dividend
at the rate of 41 per cent. per annum on the ortii-
dinary capital. and the directors recommend that
such dividend be declared accordingly. An agree-
ment for a lease and a working agreement for 21
years with the Manchester, Sheffield, Ind Lincoln-
shire Company had been sealed and exchanged by
the two companies, and was now in operation. The
Keadby Extension, the Trent, Amholme, and
Grimsby, and the Barnsley Coal Railway Bills, had
received the Royal assent, and would be proceeded
with without delay. The capital amount to the
30th June last showed that £2,377,07 had been
received and £2,297,053 expended, leaving a bal-
ance in hand of £80,154.

LLANIELOES AND NEWTOWN.

The half-featly meeting of this company was
on Monday at Lanidloes, Mr. G. H. Whalley, M.P.,
in the chair.

Mr. T, HAY WARD, the secretary, read the report,
which explained the reasons that induced the direc-
tors to give up the proposed amalgamation with the
West Midland Company. The directors had come
to au arrangement with the London and North-
Western Company, whereby the Llanidloes and
Newtown Company would be secured, by a traffic
rebate, a dividend equal to the former company, The
direetora congratulated the shareheYders upon the
arrangement. A. dividend at the rate ofd per cent.
per annum was declared for the past half year.
The citAihmAN, in moving the adoption of the
repo::, ,e,Nplained at sonic length the reasons which
had influenced the' directors in coming to the traffic
arrangement with the London and North-Western

NORTH-EASTERN.

The report of the directors states that the increase
in the traffic receipts for the past half-year amounted
to £46,218, and the working expenses to £34,130.
The company had recently abolished express fares,
extended the system of return tickets, and increased
the number of passenger trains. The balance avail•
able for dividends on the Berwick section amounted
to £190,317 ; on the Thirsk and Malton account in
the same section to £1,541 ; on the York section to
L 73,671 ; and on the Leeds section to £20,704.
Out of these sums the directors recommend a dividend
at the rate of 51, per cent. per annum on the Ber-
wick ordinary stock, leaving £1,878 ; at the rate of
4 per cent. per annum on the Thirsk and Melton
stock, leaving £541; at the rate of 41 per cent. per
annum on the York ordinary stock, leaving £1,243 ;
and at the rate of £2 17s. 6d. per cent. per annum
on the Leeds ordinary stock, leaving £668. _ _

The Rosedale branch and the extension of the
Cleveland line to Castleton were both opened in the
beginning of April last, and on the former a consi-
derable amount of mineral traffic has already been
conveyed. The bills to enable the company to com-
plete the North Yorkshire and Cleveland Railway,
by extending it to Grosmont, to improve the
Whitby line by adapting it for locomotives through-
out, and to construct a line to Otley and Ilkley, had
received the royal assent. The directors recom-
mended that a renewed application be made to Par-
liament next session for powers to form a line up
the valley of the Derwent from Blaydon 'o Con-
side, with a special view of accommodating tie local
traffic. The most cordial• relations contnned to
exists between the directors and those of tie New-
castle and Carlisle and Stockton and Da'lington

GREAT NORTHERN OF IRELAND.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was held
yesterday at the office, Parliament-street—the Earl
of Lucan in the chair.
The report stated that after paying the working
expenses of the line and interest chargeable to re-
venue there was a balance of traffic receipts for the
half-year amounting to £2,735; this, added to
£2,162, the balance at the 31st of Decewater last,
made a total sum of £4,897. The directors pro-
posed a dividend of £2 per cent., less income tax,
upon £200,000 c111,?d up on the original shares, and
£44,555 called up on the Castlebar Extension shares,
leaving a balance of £6. Considering the compe-
tition of the Tuarn line they thought the traffic re-
ceipts were satisfactory. A bill had received the
sanction of Parliament for extending the line from
Castlebar to Wes:pert. It was intended that it
should be continuoudy constructed, and it was con-
fidently expected thtt the railway would reach that
western port withotr, interruption. An agreement
had been concluded with the Public Wors Loan
Commissioners for them to advance the whole of
the debenture capital authorized by the original
Aet. It was therefore hoped that the finances of
the company were now placed on a permanent and
solid foundation. T'oe report of the engineer stated
that the permanent way and works from Athlone
to Castlereagh continued to be maintained by the
Midland Great Western Company under the work-
ing agreement. The next section of the railway,
from Castlereagh to Ballyhaunis, a distance of
about 12 miles, was practically completed, and
might be opened on the 15th inst. for public traffic.
The works were in active progress on the next sec-
tion from Ballyhaunis to Claremorris, a distance of
11 miles, and would be ready for public traffic by
the end of the presert year. The capital account
showed that £322,693 had been received and ex-
pended, including £3,996 from revenue account.
The revenue account showed that £6,031 had been
received, and £2,844 paid for working expenses at
the rate of is. fild per tr sin mile, £lO6 for the gene-
ral charges, and £346 for interest,leaving a balance
of £2,735.
On the motion of the CimutuAFthe report was
adopted, the dividend declared, and the directors
were authorized to exercise the borrowing powers
of the company to the extent of £33,000.
The proceedings concluded with a vote of thanks
to the ohairrnan.

PETERSFIELD.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was
held yesterday at the offices, Parliament-street—
Mr, W. E. Knobel in the chair.

The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the
report, said it appeared the engineer entertained
no doubt of the completion of the works within the
specified time, and for the amount estimated. In
answer to questions he stated that the board were
in communication with the South-Western Railway
Company respecting the extension to Southampton,
and they had every hope of the bill being obtained
next session. It was deemed advisable to join the
Brighton line, and no negotiation had been opened
on the subject.
The report was thea unanimously adopted, and
the proceedings terminated.

Some of the Madrid journals having asserted
that General Serrano was about to resign the office
of Captain-General of Cuba, and to be replaced by
General Prim or General Ros de Olano, the semi-
official Corresponlanct'a declares that he has ro in-
tention of retiriu for the present, and that, on the
contrary, he wz:sgoing to San Domingo to organize
the Government of that colony. According to the
Epaea, the Dolce de Valencia (Marshal Narvaez)
is to return to Madrid early next month. The
Granada journals state that three poor persons—
one a hatter, another a charcoal dealer, and the
third a public letter writer, had been lodged in pri-
son on the charge of having distributed Protestant
works and defended Protestant ;:octrines at
Alhama, Trigo, Luno, and Matamoros. It is
added that tEe English at Granada, were liberally

ITALY.

The journals of Naples announce the arrest of
Demata, the murderer of M. Mele, Inspector of
Police, This arrest was not effected without con-
siderable difficulty. It appears that three National
Guards, gentlemen of good family, had accidentally
become acquainted with the hiding•place of this
young monster (for he hadcommitted his first murder
as early as the age of 13), and also with the watchword
he had given to his accomplices. The three persons
above-mentioned repaired to the place, end knocked
at the door, saying " Aprs studente" (open the door,
student), which was the watchword they had learnt.
Demata opened accordingly, dressed in his shirt
and drawers, and with a cigar in his mouth ; but
on finding himself attacked he seized his revolver,
and fired six shots, only one of which, however,
produced some effect, slightly wounding one of the
aggressors. The others fired also, and wounded
Demata in three places—namely, in the neck, ab-
domen, and leg. Meanwhile, one of his accom-
plices, who lived in the same room with him, jumped
out of the window, and in doing so received such
severe injuries that he is stated to be in a desperate
state. Demata was at length mastered, and taken
to the police station, amid cries of "Death to the
assassin," uttered by the multitude that had as-
sembled.

LITERPOOL, AUGUST 5.

The screw steamship Great Britain, Gray, com-
mander, from Melbourne, on the 30th of May, ar-
rived yesterday afternoon, after a passage of 65
days.

The had 540 passengers, including 23 infants
and Mr. G. V. Brooke, the tragedian ; and 62
boxes of gold, containing about 82,1950 z.—
£328,000, on freight.
The mail steamer at Benares had cleared at Mel-
bourne for Point de Galle on the 25th of May,
with 48,8250 z. of gold.
The papers we have been able to obtain are
only to the 29th of May, and the news is of the
most meagre description.
The Legislative Council at Melbourne had ap-
propriated £75,000 for the supply of water to the
gold fields. At Melbourne business continued with-
out improvement, and orders for the country trade
were extremely limited. Stocks of flour were ex-
tremely limited. Stocks of flour were heavy.
Sugars continued very firm, and in full demand
at full quotations. The Bendigo Zdvertiser reports
that the quantity gold sent to Melbourne by escort
had been decreasing to an alarming extent for a
few weeks. It attributes the falling off, how-
ever, to one of the the temporary lulls incidental
to gold mining. _ _ _

In the Geelong labour-market there had been
an active inquiry for all kinds of ordinary la-
bourers. Some classes of bush mechanics were
also in fair request ; other classes in light demand.
Adelaide advices of the 27th May report the
markets quiet. Flour, £l5 10s. to £IG 55.
London, England, 1861-08-07

BOROUGH HOP.

The plantation accounts are not quite so favourable, the
duty being now estimated at from £lOO,OOO to £llO,OOO.
All kinds of hops, however, are in very limited request, and
prices rule next to nominal.
