JERSEY BA.NIC.-7ElirtS• Neal and. 'Philip .Ahier, chairman and er-ruommer o the Jersey Joint-Stock Bank, were placed at the bar of the Royal Court, Jersey, on Saturday, on charges of issuing false reports coneernin:.; the state of the said bank. Both of the at! ,osed TblV:,b d Tl, ,t rtuiltv, and they were Coaituttte Lt t,•;:s1 at tat 'A assizes.  THE THAMES MURDER,"  The officers engaged in the investigation of this crime have (says the Tha 13) received no trustwre thy information in regard to its perpetration. They receive all sort,' of suggestions, many of them repeated day by day •as new ideas, but all of no ' value and of little novelty, One of the earliest theories to thei,s, who wanted an easy selutien of the utstery was the connection of the medical student with a used subject, and when this was exploded, it was suggested that perhaps an undertaker had thus disposed of a body he ought to have committed to the grave. The .fact that the body is that of a murdered woman—as abundantly proved by the concurrent testimony of the many medical men who have seen the remains—does not prevent this latter suggestion being thrown out day by day; and the fact that an undertaker was seen to throw a baby's body into the water lately has caused such suggestions to crop up thicker than over. It unfortunately happens that, somehow or other, the constituded authorities in the Surrey district where these remains were cast ashore do not generally care to have skilled evidence as to the cause of death on bodies found in the river hereabouts and cast ashore, and thus there is some sort of impunity given to people who east out dead bodies, murdered or otherwise; but that is done only to children, chiefly those born in the unknown baby farms of a district where Margaret Watets and her partners carried on their trade. Then there is a suggestion that the body might have been cut up in sawmills, of which there are many in the neighbourhood. The medical men have set at rest the minds of those engaged in the case, even if the suggestions occupied a moment's thought. The pieces have been carefully examined several times, not only by Dr. Kempster and Dr. Haden, but by other medical men, and the opinion is that the woman was struck on the head, and, when thus rendered insensible, her threat was eut. An examination on Monday of the throat parts strongly indicated this—as the surrounding parts appeared to be infiltrated with blood, a certain sign of this action on the part of the murderer. Careful consideration of the condition of the piece first discovered shows the surgeons that the part when found could not have been in the water more than six hours, and was cut up warm. As the piece came to hand at six o'clock in the morning, this would seem to indicate that the crime was zommitted soon after the publichouses closed at midnight on the lhursday three weeks ago. By inquiry at Scotland ya.cl it was apparent that the police had got no further than this idea, the rumours to the contrary notwithstanding.  •;.iiilnt imc tabito.

The princ.pal streets were soon flooded, Lord Street being rendered impassable for over a quarter of a mile. The heavy thunderstorm passed over Live, pool in the afternoon, and a large amount of dsznage was done by the deluge of rain which flooded the basements in the lower parts of the town. In Toxtoth Park, a number of men were cogged in repairing a sewer when the water dea. coded in such volumes that the sewer burst. One 11Vtll was carried away by the flood and drowned, and another was so odiously injured that he did • few minutes after admission to the hospital.
