TELEGRAPHIC INTELLIGENCE. THE PARIS EXHIBITION. (TROM 01:R SPICIAL CORRICAPONDVIT.) called Valerio Villi. The centre double cameo deserves a few words. The cameo to the front is a Greek gem, representing a figure in a chariot with two horses. The cameo itself has many peculiari ties. The effect has been properly described as almost that of an enamel. " The ground is dark ; one of the horses have a bluish tinge, the other horse brown and white, with the mane blue ; the figure is blue with brown dr4ery. In this gem the artist has produced a beauty of arrangement in colour very rarely to be met with, seizing the opportunities which the stone has offered, without being detrimental to the beauty of the carving." The cameo behind is of the cinque-cento period. Another cameo of the same period represents Henry VIII. and his three children—Edward VI., Queen Mary, and Queen Elizabeth. The centre ornament of the coronet is a magnificent oriental lapis-lazuli intaglio, of the best Roman period. The gems include an exqui site red sand intaglio—a Greek gem, which repre sents Achilles at the tomb of Patroclus. We shall find nothing richer and rarer than this parure, let us search where we may among the jewellers' exhibits of 1867. BAN LIMB.

The semi-official North German Gaz.ett. of this evening says :—" If French writers are truthful in their reports upon the sentiments which have been aroused in Germany by the diplomatic steps taken by France in the Schleswig question, our neigh- . boors across the Rhine will be struck by the unani mous opposition of all parties against any foreign interference in our affairs. Granted that the national sentiment acts with great force, the greater precisely through its having slumbered so long, it does but follow that it should be treated with all the more consideration. At the same time the Luxemburg affair has proved that circumspection has not ceased to be the rule of conduct of German statesmen and of the German people. No one denied that, in view i of the geographical and strategical importance of the fortress of Luxemburg, France had a right to concern herself with the future of the Grand Duchy. We took this right into account without debating it, and we have therefore all the more reason to claim that France shall not interfere in matters not affecting her interests. We must needs therefore attach great importance to the pacific declarations of the Moniteur which will, we hope, put an end also to the continual provo cations of the French press." In conclusion the North Gerssan Gazette points out that the French semi-official organs support the Moniteur in its peaceful attitude, and it reproduces the remarks of the Petrie to the effect that Bourse manoeuvres have been the origin of the disquieting rumours in circulation. " Why," says the North German Gazette, "is not the evil torn up at the root, since the root is so near at hand." The same journal publishes an article upon the Eastern question in which it says :—"The East appears to be approaching a crisis, if an interven tion of the Powers in the interest of humanity may be so called. Omar Pacha's victories would seem tobe unimportant, and the news from Candle of cruelties exercised by the Turks, and of an appeal addressed by the Consuls to the foreign govern ments, praying them to put an end to the effusion of blood in the island, will probably bring about fresh efforts at mediation. The Sublime Porte will hardly persist in its refusal to listen to the proffered mediation, as in such case it would be come the duty of the Christian Powers to follow it up by a decided pressure." A Cabinet order has been issued fixing the colour of the military and naval flags of the North German Confederation. To-day the court went into mourning for eight days on account of the death of the late Arch duchess Mathilda. The conferences between the Government and the Hanoverian notables will last about a fortnight. Count von Bismarck will leave Warzin on the 2nd of August for Ems. It is understood that he will remain there for a few days, and then return to Berlin to superintend the arrangements for the election to the North German parliament.

Ravel took his well-earned benefit at the St. James's Theatre, and obtained the assistance of Mr. Charles Mathews, who appeared in ni Anglaia ?inside, the little piece of hie own writing, founded on Mr. Blanchard Jerrold's Cool as a Cucumber, in which ho unused the Parisians for fifty nights as a French actor. We have never heard of any instance in which an actor appeared in the same piece at two theatres on the same evening, playing in English at one house and in French at the other ; but this feat was accomplished last night by Mr. Charles Mathews, who represented Plum per, in Cool as a Cie-umber, at the Olympic at 9 o'clock, and Brown in Un Angluis Tinkle at the St. James's at half-past ten. Passing from one house to the other, we can beer testimony to his wonderful vivacity in both re presentations—English and French. There is nothing of the traditional English phlegm in his acting, and he ap peared to be positively electrical iu thought and action by the side of his French companions, amongst whom was M. Ravel. Such • performance by an Englishman may help to dispel several prejudices. It ought to show that mer curial acting, in which all art is concealed, is within the powers of • stolid Saxon who has discovered the secret of defying time, and who is as much at home in one language as in another. We know of no other " Admirable Crichton" on the English stage, with the exception, perhaps, of Mr. Alfred Wigan, who could go and do likewise. The house was crowded in every part with English, French, and Germans, and Mr. Mathews was moat enthusiastically received. The season of French plays will dose on Satunlay next with the benefit of M. Felix, the director, and it has been so exceptionally suc cessful that it will be repeated every year until further notice. B . ARLOW'S SELF-ACTING SYPHON TAP. No vent.pm required.

G I I R C E RECIPE AND SAO FRANCISCO PERNAMBI-CO RAIL WAY COMPANY (lderreri).—The twenty-third ordinary half-yearly general meeting of this company was held yesterday, by adjournment, at the London Tavern, Ilishopeigate-street; Mr. Benson in the chair. The chair. man said the board were in the same position ae when they last assembled. The debate on the address in the Bra zilian Chambers bad not yet concluded, and all questions of finance, including that relating to this company's gua rantee, were of course in abeyance. It appeared, indeed, to be still the old question of the stability of the govern ment and the war, and until that question was got rid of the business of the company must remain in statu quo. The directors, therefore, proposed that the meeting should be dissolved, and any discussion deferred till the next half-yearly meeting in the middle of October next. He wished, however, to add a few words with regard to the debentures, some 130,000/. of which would fall duo in a day or so. The directors had succeeded in replacing or renewing about 73,000/., and were now offering to renew at IC'!., the interest being at the rate of 7 per cent., and the ter m five years. He hoped the shareholders would approve the course they had taken, and assist them in getting rid of the remainder, otherwise it might be open to the debenture holders to seize the revenue of the railways. In December next about 20,060/. more would fall due, but it should be remembered that these debentures rested on the security of the capital and the iparantee of the government —A shareholder said be bad induced some friends to renew at par, not supposing after the circular of the directors that less would be taken. Viscount Gort said the finance committee did not accept lees until the San Paulo Company issued their advertise ment, and it was only yesterday that negotiations were opened for issuing at 95/. Nor did the directors resort to public tenders till they found the shareholders would not respond to their appeal made more than a month ago. To-morrow, perhaps, the directors might be able to get better terms.—A Share holder : Suppose the holders do not consent to renew their bonds to-morrow, will you be prepared to pay tbeiu ?—The Chairman said if they were not quite ready they would have to ask for a fewdays'indulgence.—Mr. Bramah, reply. ing to some other remarks, said hu had ascertained from the gentleman who was now at the bead of the Brazilian government that the ministry were anxious to Garry through the guarantee measure as speedily as possible. The matter was left in the hands of the Baron de Mane, who would do everything possible for the interest of the company.—Dr. Pearl, amidst some impatience, counselled the shareholders to seek a return to the act of 1861, but the proposal met with great disfavour ; and after some further discussion, a cordial vote of thanks was passed to the chairman and directors, and the meeting was dissolved. ARRIVAL OF TRoOPS FROM NEW ZEALAND. Yesterday the troop ship Maori arrived in the Mersey from Auckland, New Zealand with the right wing of the 57th Regiment, consisting of 9 officers, 20 women, 34 children, and 2702 rank and file, the officers in command being Brigade-Major James Stewart, Captains Sir H.

NATIONAL ARTILLERY ASSOCIATION PRIZE MEET ceo.--SsossuaysEss Ciao., TURsDAT Evexistc.—The camp fire last night was attended by probably one thou sand persons, including a number of ladies and the greater portion of the Royal Artillery officers at Shoebury. Some capital songs and recitations were given by the volunteers, who were ably seconded by their brethren of the Royal Artillery. A large number of rockets, signal lights, and Manby's life shot tureen had been kindly sent by the Royal Artillery authorities (Colonel Wilmot. ILA., Colonel Gor don, dc.t, and they were placed under the superintend ence of Captain Studdart, adjutant Ist London Artillery, and Sergeant Collier, H.A. These fired at intervals had most pleasing effects, particularly the volleys of rockets when the camp fire and the darkness of a calm and lovely night had increased. The words " National Artillery Associa tion " had been marked out with the fuses on the side of a gravel pit facing the spectators, and this attempt merited a better success than the smoke from the burning fusel composition admitted. At the close a ring was formed round the fire, hands joined, and " Auld Lang Sync " was sung with effect. A somber of men holding port fires marched round, and " God save the Queen" was then sung in chorus. Lieut. Minister, lot Surrey, superintended at the camp fire, and was rewarded with well-merited cheers. Soon after eleven o'clock the camp was restored to he usual quietness, but the remains of the camp fire were burning at mid-day to-day. The competi tion today wan for the Prince of Wales's prize of rd., and under the usual conditions—viz., three shots at 1,250, and two shots at 1,500. As each shot was fired it was watched with a great anxiety, and at length the 2nd Middlesex (Custom House) made the extraordinary score of 39 marks, and thus secured the prize. The second best score was made, it was stated, by an Essex de achrnent but we were unable at the time this notice was despatched to ascertain the number of it. This evening there will be another camp fire, the one of last night having pained over .1, in such a successful manner. This afternoon there was again a nuniber of rustic sports on the cricket-ground. The health of the camp, under the charge of Dr. de Lisle, of the let Middlesex, is all that could be desired ; and in but very few instances have his services been regnireeL .

PARIS, JULY 30. A despatch has been received from M. Dano, the French Minister in Mexico, dated from the capital on the 26th June last, in which ho confirms the intelligence of the escape of Marquez, Horam, Lacamza, lrribarera, and Lores ; and the arrest of M. Eloin (senior), Fischer, and General Favera. The despatch makes mention of no other impor tant fact. FRANCE AND ITALY. FLORENCE, JULY 30. Chevalier de Nigra ha. arrived here. The Opinione of to-day, discussing the remarks of the Moniker referring to Italy, says :—" The official organ of the French government states that it has reason to reckon upon the strict and loyal observance of the September Convention upon the part of Italy, but it forgets that the convention binds not only Italy, but France also. The Moui teur would have performed an act of sound policy if it had at the same time given assurances that France has no intention of departing either from the letter or the spirit of the convention, and had stated that it ought to admit that there were no longer French, but Pontifical soldiers in Rome. It is not right, therefore, that French generals should visit Rome to inspect Pontifical troops." THE SULTAN. VIMTNA,JuLT 30. According to present arrangements, the Sultan will take his departure to-morrow. Prince Mustapha, brother of the Viceroy of Egypt, has arrived here. At a late visit of the Belgian Volunteers to Woolwich Dockyard one of them incautiously placed his band on the machinery of a steam saw then in motion, and was considerably wounded, the wonder being that his hand wrs not taken quite. On returning to A% oolwich to thank Dr. Playfair, of the Dockyard Infirmary, for his services, the gentleman mentioned that at the time of the accident he had on his finger a massive gold ring, which was taken off. Search was then diligently made amongst the refuse at the saw-mills, and the ring was found much cut, and on further search the stone, a valuable one, was also found. It is probable that the teeth of the saw having caught the ring prevented more serious results. LA CROMSE.—This, the national game of Canada, was introduced into England yesterday at Beaufort-house Grounds, Fulham, by a party of Rad Indians who have been brought over to show us its attractions. A. consider able number of ladies and gentlemen, including Lord Itanelagh, who bad invited them, assembled to make themselves acquainted with the pastime. As the game in voices much excitement, hard work, skill, and the requisite amount of personal danger, it will no doubt soon establish itself upon English soil. It seems to be a combination of the principles of many of our own best known sports. It resembles cricket, inasmuch as the men on either side have their given posts, such as point, coverpoint, centre, home, and field ; it resembles racket, inasmuch as the ball is knocked about with an instrument consisting of a long stick bent at one end, with tightly strained net work spread over the loop ; and it resembles hockey and football, inasmuch as there is a contest between two sides for the possession of the ball. The ball however is much smaller than the ordinary football, and as neither hand nor foot must touch it, everything depends upon the use of the crow, which was yesterday handled by the Indians with remarkable skill. In the centre of the field is fixed the starting flag where the ball is thrown down to be knocked, if possible, between two flags seven feet apart, planted some hundreds of yards off at either end of the field. These narrow passages ere called goals, and each i.r guarded by the goal keeper, whose business it is to prevent the ball coming through it. The game is necessarily a long one, the players sometimes getting within an inch of the desired spot only to find the ball hurled through the air back into the centre. The Indians were very expert in hurling the hall, in catching it in the 1 net of the trove, and in running swiftly away with it until an opponent brought his instrument heavily upon it i n order to free it. The spectators were both interested and delighted. Some public exhibitions of la crime are to take place, and the game will probably become popular. New CHANCERY Aer.— Yesterday the act to make provision for the despatch of business in the Court of Appeal in Chancery was issued. It enables the two Lords Justices tohold separate courts, and yesterday was the first day of the sittings. Lord Cairns sat as Lord Justicedn his own court, and Lord Justice Rolt in the Lord Chancellor's Court. The new statute is to be read as one with the 14 and 15 Vic., c. ES, appointing an ap peal court in Chancery. New Com mom Law ALT.—Yesterday the act to enable the masters of the common law courts to dispose of matters at the judges' chambers was printed. Rules are to be made by the judges, and to be read aloud in open court before they are acted upon. This provision will prevent the adoption of the act till November. SOCTHAIIIToN, JULY 30. —The North German Lloyd steamer Wexer,'CaptainWenke, sailed this afternoon for New York with the English, French, and German mails, 135 cabin and a full complement of steerage passen gers, and a large cargo. including jewellery from Havre, value 41,000 franc... WILLCOX AND GheeEWIIPO MACHTNE.—" Its seam le stronger and less liable to tip in use or wear than the lock-stitch.'—" Judges Report," at the "Grand Trial." Send for the "Report," and samples of work, containing both kinds of stitches on the same piece et goods—W. and G. S. 11. Company, as, Ressat-atreet.—Ladratiseanot) The members of the committee of admission of class 36 have divided jewellery and ornaments into two principal divisions; namely, 1. Fine and imitation jewellery ; 2. Trinkets, comprehending gold ornaments, ornamented or enriched with pre cious stones or enamels, plated jewellery, copper gilt jewellery, ornamented with imitation precious ' stones, &c. It is explained that, according to the distinction made in France, the precious metals are the mere accessories in jewellery. They are the material which group or present the jewels. Trinkets, or all those articles comprehended in the second division as laid down by the committee, are articles in which the precious metal is paramount. The jewellers and goldsmiths of France are a most important body, and are continually increasing in numbers, as a stroll among the jewellers and trinket makers will soon pros e to the visitor who remembers the French jewellery and goldsmith's I work of 1855. Paris is the centre of the trade; Ibut there are great branches of it at Lyons, and Marseilles and Besancon. A great lapidary trade I has arisen moreover in the Jura. The quantity of gold annually used by French jewellers and goldsmiths is estimated at 17 tons, while the , _I manufactured silver amounts to B'3 tons. The total Manual i•allie of the gold and silver work of France is set down at 3,825,6001, exclusive of precious stones. There are 20,500 persons in the trade, of whom 12,500 are strictly workmen. The number of manufacturers is 1,250. This great trade is carried on, as a rule, in small workshops, and it offers to the inquirer exceedingly favourable views of the French small workshop system. There are not many masters who employ more than eight or ten workmen. A great many of the skilled men work apart, and employ one journeyman and apprentices. The female labour used in this trade is confined to the polishing process. Since the exhibition of 1855 machinery has been largely introduced into the trade without, the Committee of Selection maintain, harming the character or finish of the work. The French committee assert that " plated gold jwellery is without a rival abroad, and enables French commerce to compete with the low standard gold work of England and Germany." The social conditions under which this trade is now carried on appear to be extremely happy, and favourable to its prosperous development. Since 1855 the masters and workmen have formed themselves into a common association for the amicable adjustment ' , of their respective interests. It is a superb study to see a Frenchman who has put on connoisseur airs making his way_ to our pottery, glans, jewellery, and plate. He turns his phrases before each stall, shrugs his shoulders frequently, and if he be in a very good humour admits that all this is very well—for us. It is his delight to pick out that which has the least approach to Drench taste, while we are perhaps a little to prone to admiration of things which are not English. " They manage things better in France" is a phrase that expresses a characteristic of the English mind. The Englishman looks with no jaundiced eye on the splendours of Sevres, on the infinite ingenuities of the A rtieles de Paris, on the daring and fantastic designs of French toys and trinkets, and bedizen ment; of Paris art manufacturers. It is with a generous glow of satisfaction that his eye falls upon the canvases of Meissonnier, Carbanel, Decamps, Bellane, and Desgoffes. He enjoys the treat which Froment-Meurice can give to the edu cated art-observer. His very generosity tempts the French critic to underrate him. Never was this so abundantly proved as it has been during the last three months. 1 repeat, there are art excellences on the stalls of our goldsmiths and jewellers which are a match in art-worth with any thing which the French have in their brilliant courts. But the scantiest acknowledgments only of these excellences have been made here. Our Scotch jewellers' work is original, and some of it moat artistic. The exhibits of W. Crouch and Sons and W. Marshall, of Edinburgh, are most interesting and praiseworthy. The ornaments which the King and Prince of Prussia bought of Mr. Marshall are charming. There is some really fine enamel work on this stall. One ornament con sists of three cairngorms strung together with an antique coronet. I noticed, too, a most effective combination of silver and green enamel that heightened the pebbles ; and Mr. Marshall shows a beautiful series of crosses from the antique, enriched with Scotch agate. Messrs. Crouch and Sons exhibit a rich casket—the Queen Mary casket --consisting of two thousand stones, heightened with blue enamel. This is all original and well executed and picturesque jewellers' work ; not, of course, so delicate as that which delights the cultivated visitor as he pauses at the stall of Messrs. Phillips, or Wather ston, or Broaden. It is, however, tasteful and completely original work. It is native of the soil —as indigenous as the burr-thistle. If we pass to Mr. C. F. Hancock and Sons' stall, we find a show of jeweller's work that is thoroughly original and highly effective. The Devonshire gems, from the collection of theDulceof Devonshire, arranged and mounted as aparure of jewels, consist of seven ornaments, viz., a comb, a stomacher, a bandeau, a bracelet, a necklace, a diadem, and a coronet. The setting is a very original adaptation of the Holbein style, and is composed of fine deli cately-coloured trellis work in variegated enamel, over which brilliants are studded. The gems are various and costly. There are seven cameos in the comb —one, the head of Leander, is a Greek gem, very beautifully executed, and dates about the time of Alexander the Great. One of the finest specimens of the gems usually found at Bas sora and Bagdad forms the central ornament of the comb. It is a fine oriental amethyst intaglio bust of the Persian King, Shahpnr 1., of the Sanaa nides race, who were destroyed by Osman, Caliph of the Saracens. The bust has a curled beard, long ringlets of hair, also a tiara ornamented with pearls, and pendants in the ears. The stomacher is very beautiful, including garnet, jacynth, lapis lazuli, and onyx cameos—Greek and Roman gems; and plasma, jacynth, lapis-lazuli, and cornelian intaglios. On this stomacher is a cameo, white on a dark ground : a half length portrait of Clotho, the youngest of the three Faroe, is represented in high relief. This is a beautiful specimen of high Greek art. Clotho is represented with the distaff in her hand, spinning the thread of life. In the bandeau are ruby, sapphire, and oriental red surd intaglios, and an emerald cameo, a fine Roman carving in high relief. The , bracelet consists of a carbuncle cameo of I the cinque-cento period, a carbuncle in taglio, and a red sard cameo' of the cinque-cento period. The necklace is an exquisite thread of delightful Greek and Roman gems and cinque oento carving. The central cameo is one of the Emperor Tiberius. It is an exquisite Roman gem. The head is white on a dark ground. The laurel wreath and border are brown, and outside the border is an Arabic inscription, showing that it was the property of a Mameluk prince of Cairo, who reigned at the end of the fifteenth century. One of the cameos—an excellent example of the cintine-cento period—is a portrait of Edward VI. We Tnow come to the diadem. A double cameo in its original setting of the cinque-cento period forms the centre. Some of the cameos and intaglio. deserve special notice. One cameo, white on a dark ground, is a portrait of Queen Eliza beth. This ornament was an old locket, and has been left in its original setting of enamel. It contains two water-colour miniatures painted by Hilliard. One represents Queen Eliza beth and the other the Earl of Leicester. This or nament is said to have been worn by the Queen l.herself. • Hilliard was the court jeweller at the ' date of the execution of this work. The cameo is , the production of Valerio Vioentini, commonly BRITISH ARCH,EOLOOICAL ASSOCIATION. The twenty-fourth annual congress of this association was " inaugurated on Monthly night by a public dinner, and the fine weather yesterday drew together a large muster of satnas and visitors from • distance for the first excursion. The inaugural address was delivered on Monday night , after the public dinner by Sir Charles H. Rouse Boughton, Bart., the president. Yesterday's excursions were to Bit terley Church, Titterston, the Hill, to examine the an- t cient remains there, and to Downton-hall, where the members were enter tained by the_president. ST.

THE HEALTH OF LONDON.—It appears from the return issued by authority of the Registrar-General that in the week that ended on Saturday, July 27, the births registered in London and twelve other large towns of the United Kingdom were 4,451 • the deaths registered, 2,816. The annual rate of morta lity was 24 per 1,000 persons living. In London the births of 1,107 boys and 1,056 girls, in all 2,163 children, were registered in the week. In the corresponding weeks of ten years 1857-66 the average number, corrected far increase of population, is 2,000. The deaths registered in London during the week were 1,347. It was the 30th week of the year ; and the average number of deaths for that week is, with • correction for increase of population, 1,453. The deaths in the present return are leas by 106 than the estiruated number. The deaths in the metro polis from diarrhma have rapidly increased since the week which ended June 22nd, when 16 persons died tram the disease ; in the four following weeks the numbers were 48, 54, 115, 170. Last week 196 deaths from diarrhosi were registered ; 39 of these cases occurred in the west, 50 in the north, 22 in the central, 52 in the east, and 33 in the . south districts. Twelve children and three adults died from cholera or choleraic diarrlitia. In the corresponding week of last year 11866) the deaths from diarrbma were 349, and from cholera 904.

RAILWAY AND OTHER BILLS BEFORE PARLlA merm—Yesterday the following business in railway and • other private bills now pending is parliament was trans acted.

FIRE AT A SUGAR FACTORY AT WHITECHAPIL.— Yesterday afternoon, between 3 and 4 o'clock, a fire, sus pected to be the work of an incendiary, broke out at the extensive auger bakery and refining factory belonging to Messrs. Joseph Wohlgemout he, in Christian-street, Back church-lane, Whitechapeh The works are several stories high, and were in full work, when suddenly the work people were startled by a cry that the stove was on fire, and at the same tune the interior of the premises was tilled with smoke, compelling them to make a speedy escape into the open air. The stove extended throughout the centre of the building, from the basement to the roof, having doorways leading into it on every floor, but it appears not to have had a fire in it for nearly twelve months ' and no light has been known to have been taken into the place. This, and the circumstance of the tire having no doubt commenced in the Imminent part of the stove, led to a belief that it must have been the work of some malicious person.
