GREAT BRITAIN. Loxpox, March 4.—It is reported that the Yrands on the Bank of England amount to two ‘million dollars, and that of this amount $350,000 was drawn upon Jay Cooke, McCulioch & Co.; £200,000 Gpon the Rothschilds, and a large amount, the exact figures unknown, upon the ‘Barings. Some of these houses are said tobe making strenuons efforts to suppress the details of the transactions. It is etated, on what ap- pears to be guod authority, that one of the mem- eas of the house of Rothschild went to Newgate to-day, and had an interview with Noyes, the alleged accomplice of the swindlers, aud that startling revelations concerning their operations were made, the natare of which is kept sccret for the prescnt. Lazer—The circamstances of the fraud onthe Pank of England remain a mystery. Noyes, tha clerk or confederato of the forgers, now under srrest, is & native of the United States. He protests his innccance, but doubt- less knows more than be is willing to tell at present. Astonishment is expressed that the extentof the transactionsdid not arouse the euspictions of the bank officials, but it seems that the operators ropresented that they wero intercsted in the introduction of American pal-- mee cars on British railwaye, and were mmgi:g for their manafacture on o scale which requir the employment of a large amount of funds. The men on a strike_in Merthyr Tydvil, at a mecting to-day, resolved to go back to work on the masters’ terms for two weeks, and trust to ke mesters’ honor for an_advance of wages for the third week. 1t is probable this action will bring the * long strike ” to an end. pien FRANGE.

MEAE_W YORK. ster, the Car-ilook Fiend, Respited for Two Weeks—The Xllustrated Baily—Miscellaneous Kews. Spesfal Dispateh to The Chicago T'ribune. New Yonx, March 4.—Tho respite of Foster, by Gov. Dix, nntil the 21st inst., canses 1o little excitoment in this city. The car-hook murder has been tacitly accopted in the com. ‘munity as & test case, and, if Yoster is not to be hung, it is ssked, Shall any other murderor ever bo hung in this Stato? A pamphlet bas been published at Albany embracing the various lettors and petitions for commutation that havo been poured in upon Gov. Dix. They prove that the offort made to save Foster from thie gallows has been slmost superhuman. Mrs. Putnam, wife of the murdered man, vrites that sho knows the ‘bitter sorrows of widowhood from experienco, and for Mra, Foster's sake she awks that her busband's sontomco be commuted to imprisonment for life. Fos- tors fathers petition pleads for his son on the ground of previons good character, and the Rev. Dr. Tyng urges similar reasons. Among othors who urge & commutation are three ox-District Attorneys snd six surgeons. The latter asgert that the wounds inflicted by the car-hook wero not necessanly fatal. The iscopal clergy, with Trinity st tho head, have intorceded for Foster with all the influenca at their command. The weslth of Mr. Foster, senior, has beon spent unaparingly to his son. What the Governor's final decision ill Lo probpbly depeads on the drift of ‘public sentiment during the nest fortnight. It is ap- parent, however, that Dix has been_more merci- ful to Foster than to Gaffney, and that Lis ro- cent letter foreboding stern justice to murderers ‘meant death to Gafiney, but possible escape for an infinitely more brutal asssssin. ‘The first number of the new illuatrated even- ing paper, the Graphic, nppeared to-day, and & vory large odition was old. Some of the pic- tures have been carefully elaborated, and are 1fair, but the ongravings intended to represent curTent events of the dayare poorly conceived, and go badly printed that they are but littls bet~ ter thon blurs. The attempt to give the news resulied in o mess, and, on the whole, the be- ginning of this novel cxpériment is weak. The pdblishers, however, will succeed if their pisns prove fensible, the publio showing a strong de- sire to buy thé paper and advertise in it. NEw Yorg, March4.—2r.
