The share market opened well this morning, and yesterday's improved pri.os were for a time main tained, but some reaction has since occurred, and mast of the heavy stocks have receded, including Caledonians, Great Westerns, Lancashire and York shires, Brighton., North Western!, Manehester and Sheffield', mid Midlands. Greet Northern!, however, are firm. The settlement of the account is in pro gress, and to this circumstance the variation in prices m chiefly attributable.

I. mos. of the militia. - Mr. HENRY ALEXANDER (having been unanimously requested to preside) observed that the meeting had been called together, in order to egress the views they might entertain with regard to the panic, which to a certain ex tent had prevailed amongst the people of thes country, but which he felt had been in a great degree unfounded, and which he believed would lead to consequences that might prove highly disastrous to us as a nation, because it would have the effect of increasing still further the public bar ' deny whisk wise already so heavy in connexion with oar military establishments. He eoaddaeeir tharefon, titee proposed calling out of the militia was a matter so serious' that it deserved the moat careful irseetigation, notonly In pa . Tamest, but before the country at large. (Chevy') He hoped that the present meeting would be only the first of a Reties to be held to protest against the proposed scheme. If it was necessary to employ a large number of men in a military capacity he would very much prefer having such as would volunteer, and paying them for their services to pressing men against their will. (Cheers.) Assuredly there were nu eircumstaneve that would induce ease of then to take up arms, for they would rather sub. mitt Is • ewart-niartial and all the penalties it could inflict than do se. (Loud cheers.) Mr. Aksander then culled apes Mr. HENRY RICHARDS, who offered an apology fo the absence of Mr. Bright, said the hon. gentleman had given his promise to attend previous to the change which Md negate, taken !place in the aspect of political affairs; awl that awe had rendered it neressery for him ti re pair, te llemsbester, in order to consult with some friends ea the steps to he taken to meet the possible attempt that might be made to place a tax ayees the boil of the people. (Loud cheers.) Mr. Richards asa woad the firet resolution, which having alluded to ens steam eate in the Queen's speech, and in those of Lard Palmerston, and other distinguished political audio- Asir, es to the continuance of our friendly relations with =powees, expressed the surprise and regret of the that a proposal should have been made to increase the leatatents of the country, and to enrol the militia ; dtllg rutaeh a proposition was calculated to encourage groundiess apprehensions at home, and to create nod distrust among neighbouring nations. (Chose.) Be (Mr. Richards) thought it was quite clear that the peeple of this country should not assent to the militia ha swept on the assumption of an immediate pree ning eseemdty. (Cheers.) They certainly would never agree to the Oration of a militia in order to let at liberty the regiments of the line to go abroad and ensleyoli in is foreign quarrels. Our ships were in the Mediterranean pre serving the rock of Gibraltar and Malta; they were on the coast of Africa, battering down negro dynasties; they were chasing pirates, and yet after all we had to give 101. per head to amateur pirate hunters to do the work of ex terminating them. (Cheers.) Mr. Richard then sketched the provisions of the proposed Maids Bill, and asked if it was not a monstrous injastice ? It taxed the young men who would be drawn to the amount of the wages they earned, and it would be last as fair to my that only these between the ages of 20 and 23 should pay the in finite tax. (Cheers.) To men of property it would sot ba elrMdk inneavenience to serve, because they could sishe ==a•s tho twevying on of their business In the bit to the meanie or clerk it would be rein.

LONDON UNIVERSITY COLLEGE. Yesterday the usual annual general meeting of the proprietors was held at the college in Ouwer-street. The chair nu taken at 3 o'clock by Sir James OIIAHLu, „ M.P., when there ware about fifty of the proprietors M prese Af nt. at. ter the transaction of some routine business the annual to report was read. This document showed the unpleasant fact that, while the number of students and pupils in the 1 college and school have increased—while a very large pro- '' portion of the graduates at the university were students of s t ., the college—while the efficiency of the college was how,- at. ing—that the income of the institution remained auequal so to the expenditure, however carefully and economically 1 0 controlled. During the past year a loan of 3,3001. has been " contracted by the council an order to meet the excess of is expenditure over the income, not only of the past, but of .1 several preceding years. The total Mousse of the year, le including the loan in question, amounts to 17,1721., and the et. expenditure to 16 ; 1611. ; leaving a balance of 6912., which " has been Merited. The number of students during „„ the session 1860-61 was, in the faculti_ of me dieiae, 2004 sea the Welty *Wks -14 with the 304 pupils In the Junior 'Wheal, gave a total or le 747. The fees paid by the students during the same period amount to 6,7962. The sum of 9511. received as fees for the „, 11 - clinics' lectures had been paid to the hospital connected 7,1 with the university. The report acknowledged the receipt u of several valuable and troportant ; among the lat- lAA ter was a collection of Chinese books from Mr. Morrison, and the orrery manufactured by James Ferguson, the self- su taught natural philosopher . The library now contains 64 38.066 volumes on general, and 3,669 on medical subjects. ui The report was received, adopted, and ordered to be a: printed. ft Some unimportant business having been transacted, 10 Mr. J. IL QUAIN wished to submit to the meeting a SO question of deep interest to the welfare of the institution I! , and to the interests of the proprietors. The question was, e as t the state and coudition of the University of Londua. et University College was the oldest and largest of the satiated le colleges; it bad the largest number of students, end N of the present number of the graduates of the University, five hundred were its members. In stating se plain honest facts respecting the condition of the University • of London, ho did not wish to pledge the meeting to any- se thing, though he felt convinced those facts would show that M. the time had come for admitting the graduates to the tor- 1 4, perste body. The resolution which he should submit cm- :, t l ' bodied that expression of opinion. The University of e i London, established fifteen years ago, but which had only at been twelve years in operation, was exclusively composed U of a senate appointed by the Crown. The first thing done by that senate was to form a curriculum of studies for those N. students who applied for degrees. Fur that the senate was a entitled to the grateful tbauks of all the graduates. It so would bear comparison with any system in any part of the st. United Kingdom, and it had, as be believed, been very in- 10 strumental in promoting the beneficial changes introduced 1 a short time ago in the Universities of Oxford and Cam- t, bridge. (Cheers.) The University of London was composed so of 28 g I colleges and 100 medical colleges :6 of the 28 se. were °panto all denominations, 9to Roman catholic'. 10 to IL nonconformists, 2to Wesleyan, and 2to the established le church. The medical *chords included were in London and 114 other places in the United Kingdom, in Calcutta, in Moo- 10 ' treat, and in Sierra Leone. From these different colleges &&.; there were at this moment about 700 graduates. Of these 700 ono third, he believed, belonged to the medical motes. dal sion, 40 were law graduates, sad the remainder had taken r degrees in the various faculties of arts. The number of IS candidates increased about 100 a year, so that in a very few coo years there would be a body of 1,000 graduates. The ave. at. rage of the 700 was 27 years; and if they deducted eo those who had graduated during the last two years, the 10 average age would be found to be 30 Very nearly one- .„," half of the whsle number were resident in and about Lou- ; don. That was a meet material point, because it die- so tinguished the University of London from the ancient ea, universities, where the number of residint graduates wss very small indeed. The remainder of the graduates were 11 living chiefly in the manufacturing districts. The next II: point was their position; 70 or 80 were ministers of religion of various denominations, 70 or 80 others were occupied as professors, or teachers, in the college.; and of the medical Mi geminates a very large proportion also was occupied as teachers in the medical schools attached to the colleges. es& The remainder belonged to tho legal profession, and the at majority was at the bar. Of the 4,6001. paid in fees 101 1 Ethe students, 2,000!. was paid by the medical students. hat was the position of the University of London ? pi This large number of graduates bad ne connexion what eves commission with the university, u idteillfirag ia &Tdegree. Me eieogo , badtheen gnu ka the charter deco its original grant, though he believed It ' was the intention of its founder' to make some change In so respect to the graduate* when that body should have be come numerous enough. In 1840 a committee of the le senate had passed several resolutions in favour of making l an electoral body out of the graduates of three years' stand- 0 ing, whenever their numbers should amount to 300. This r. and other resolutions were, however, quashed in the senate 5 7 itself. The justice of the case having been so long Flamm- iss ledged, he did not think the graduates were asking for anything extraordinary when they asked that the recom mendation of these resolutions should be taken into con- 10 sideration. In 1848 the present movement among the gra sea - duates commenced, not from any desire to grasp at power, or to enforce any peculiar academical theories ; but for the se purpose of fulfilling a real practical want. In 1848 ill the Lord Advocate brought in the Medical Registration Dill, which the graduates on exsminatiun fogad Ist sustain Ni clauses most p rejudicial to Ate value and reemssability of I their degrees. - The palisades were new a - {mbar, ft. and all interested in mointeimiag the and the dignity of their degrees. The affiliated sollegee wen east- if tend all over the United Kingdom, without any swain. tion. The colleges knew nothing of one another, INA many is even were ignorant of the common centre in lidenenet. house. He bad stated that many of the maws belonged et, to various denominations of dissenters. If NON MOB INF ful general centre, some combination were iota= would be a great means to lessen the strum • prejudices in which the students at these magas I ware temporarily educated. The association etymon sea 111. was essentially necessary to education: it was the greats* I I want of the University of London. The gradueles wore wedded to no particular plan, they had dropped thin whisk se was some years ago proposed to liar G. Ore . The mole tion he moved applied solely to the The pl. duates did not act in hostility to the senate ft the senocal of 4 1 the college, they submitted their wishes es reassaable and Fp just, leaving the details of any plan fee therging them eat • to the consideration of the proper authorities. (Lead cheers.) The resolution having been seconded, Mr. YATIS opposed the motion on various grounds none of whisk 61/ so have any weight with the meeting, and it WY in the st, allirmauve ;as was also a second, directing the cornea to DO communicate the resolution to the senate. Mr. HUME thanked Mr. Quain for the able and Judi dons manner in which he had introduced the subject. The 'H time bad come for the amendment in the charter of the s e university desired by the graduates—it was n to the is cause of education and progress—and he regretted that any 10 individual should have attempted to throw difficulties in 1 the way. Mr. lIUME then moved a vote of thanks to Sir James 1 4 1 Graham for his "ucliii6 Al ions l and just kindness in the chair, & and the aeries beta seconded, Sir JAMBS G said he "odd assure the meeting lb that he felt the highest methadon from the expression of , thanks which hail - bass eared_ hthy but more especially a bees* it had bees brought heward by his old friend Mr. Hume. Mr. Humehad obsermalthat the progressof all reform A was slow. He (Sir J. Graham) said to them that though slow 1 it was sure, and that there was no retrogression from progress once made. PIMPING OEM made in anything can never be rescinded. (Land cheers) With respect to the proposi tion which bad just been adopted, he would remiud the meeting that the senate of the University derived its powers from the crown, that they an not the responsible advisers of the crown. The question was only one of time, and would before long be settled. It was difficult to fix the precise period when such a step ought to be taken, but he felt convinced that before long corporate privileges such as those possessed by the Universities of Oxford and Cam bridge, would be granted by the legislature to the Univer sity of Loudon. Intelligence and education were the surest moans to power.

Jeweshury and Co. has the following review 0: these sales, which terminated last night (Wednesday) Tim reduc tion in prices, as compared with last October sale, which took place un the first day, chiefly for the finer qualities of Bengal, hie continued throughout ; occasionally mere spirit was manifested in the bidding', and lately rites were decidedly firmer, but there was nu disposition to go beyond the rates then established. Good Madras and litapah, both being scarce, have experienced an advauce of 3.1. to 4d. per lb.; three qualities also in October last reales. d the same advance upon the previous lady sale, when ail other de scriptions were lower, as in the present sale. he greatest reduction has been, ns was anticipated, upon the good and fine Bengal qualities, which constituted a eirge proportion of the sale. The large quantity disposed of iu tile Let two sales shows that a return to moderate prices has gisen eon fidence to buyers ; and as the next May sale will in all pro bability be a small one, on account of the uutemally late shipments from Calcutta, present rates are exp., ted to be fully maintained foe some time to come. Of the quantity brought forward, it is estimated that 2,016 are bought in, 4,711 withdrawn, and 7,787 sold, to whirh may be added about 2,000 of the bought in and withdrawn ; making the total quantity sold say 9,800 chests, of which 5,000 chests are for export, and 4,800 fur home use and ri -sale. The following are the quotations, as compared with the last October sale:—Good and flue shipping, 35.. to 44. per lb. lower; ordinary and defective ditto, 2J. m 3d. lower ; broken and consuming, par to 3d. lower; Madras, good fine, 3d. to 4d. higher ; ditto , middling ordinary, par to 4d. lower ; Kurpah, good and fine, 3d. to 4d. higher ; ditto, middling and ordinary, par to 3d. lower.
