LONDON, MONDAY. NOVIIMBAR 7. Tax three days covered by the advice. brought by the steamer Heels from New York appear to have pasted away without any remarkable occur rence in war or politics. We get a few more par ticulars of the battle of Cedar Creek and its results, a Confederate account of that action having been published. General SHERMAN re port. that his permit of EARLY'S troops ceased at Mount Jackson, about twenty-five miles beyond Strasburg, where he declares they arrived without a single organized regiment. Southern accounts state that no infantry pursued the retiring Confederates, and it will be remem bered that the Northern reports, official and non official, mentioned only cavalry as having been sent after EARLY% retreating army. There is so far not more than the usual discrepancy in the Northern and Southern accounts of the battle. The Federala gave their enemy credit for taking twenty-four guns on the morning of the 15th tilt., but the Confederates only claim to have taken eighteen. We must look to later, fuller, and official accounts for an explanation of the remark able failure of the Confederate commander to profit by the immense advantage he obtained over his enemy in the early part of the day. At present it Is as difficult to understand how he could have taken only 1,300 prisoners, as why he did not push on and finish his work before SHERIDAN'S return, when the Federal army, surprised and discouraged, and under an out-generalled commander, was at his mercy. The accounts from Tennessee and Missouri ammo confused and wildly conjectural as to be almost worthless. It seems that it will not be the fault of our Southern friends if we are not embroiled in a quarrel with the Government of the United States by the pretensions of their adherents to make Canada a basis of their irregular operations against its citizens. It appears that Yousc the chief of the band of marauders which lately appeared in Vermont, and robbed three banks, and shot several citizens of St. Alban's in the streets—now that he is a prisoner on British territory professes to be the bolder of a lieutenant's commission in the Confederate service. His as sertion is probably true. IT is rather curious to n Ake the uneasiness which is occasimicil amongst the holders of shares in new companies by the rumours of impending calls. One might almost imagine that the subscribers to these concerns, and even the class of more permanent holders who, in many cases, have succeeded them, have deluded themselves into a belief that 51. is the utmost that will be called up on each share of eof., 601., or 1001., as the case may be. Even in cases where it is perfectly clear that the objects originally avowed by a company cannot possibly be cam Mil out unless the capital subscribed is actually paid up, the shareholders seem to have fallen into acobveilient sod complete forgetfulness of their liabilities. The result is that each call, or rumour of a call, strikes a large number of holders with disagreeable sur prise, and brings forward immediately such a supply of shares as completely crushes the market, and leaves to the shareholders only the mortifying discovery that their stock is absolutely unmarket able. Why persons should subscribe for, and transfer into their names, shares on which calls are known to be shortly accruing, though well aware that they have not the means of meet ing them, is one of those common enigmas of which it is very difficult to attempt au explanation, except upon the supposition that there are a large number of people iu the world habitually averse to keeping account of their etig3Lt ments. Every week some concern which pre viously had commanded a certain price —perhaps even a premium —in the market sinks into the com pletely Mewl% ertihle category, to the sore disap pointment of those interested, many of whom are perhaps residents iu the country, or disqualified by profession, age, or sex from making themselves thoroughly acquaintvsl with the conditions of their investment, and with the numerous influences operating on its market price. For the information of these, as well as of others who, from the oppor tunities of information which they enjoy, ought not to require instruction iu such matters, it may once more be pointed out that the investing public, as a him.. Mi.- THE EXPRESS, KONDA V EVENING, NOVEMBER 7, 1864. rule, do not absorb shares liable to calls, but prefer fully paid stocks, or, what is nearly the same thing, stocks which have been paid up to the full extent contemplated in the understanding arrived at between the directors and the share holders, and in respect of which, therefore, no further demands are likely to be made. it may also be useful to bear in mind that the market for the shares of the great majority of the new com panies is, at the best, of an extremely limited nature, promoters having no object in maintaining the con vertibility of the property after the expiration of the period during which public subscriptions are invited. The broad lesson which subscribers over taken unexpectedly by calls have to learn is, that when they affix their signature to a form of appli_ cation, or toa deed of transfer, as buyers, it is their duty to ascertain that they are able to meet calls to the full exteut of their nominal holding, due regard being had, of course, to the period over which these payments are to be spread. If the public would but bear this in mind, and take only such number of shares as they are able to pay upon, instead of, embarking in a vaguely speculative manner to an extent far beyond their means, there might be a hope that a mania such as that which we have lately gone through would pass over without any of the cruel lcsscs frequently heard of. Perhaps the most remarkable feature of all is that chief nervousness is shown by the shareholders of some of the princi pal financial companies, whose shares have been diffused with remarkable rapidity throughout the country. It is easy to perceive by indications of this sort that the mass of new shares lately created has not yet been really digested by the public, and there is ground to fear that one or two sharp lessons will yet have to be impressed before the excrescences of speculation will be effec tually cut away. Shareholders in these under takings will do well to ask themselves whether the credit of the companies with which they have identified themselves would be 'raised and consolidated through the directors being placed in possession of an amount of paid-op capital better adapted to the broad scope of their operations, and bearing also a more reasonable pro portion to the nominal amount of the company's capital ; and if tbey find it impossible to refuse an affirmative answer to the question, nothing more should be required to demonstrate to them the unreasonable character of the position which they assume iu deprecating calls designed to promote their interests and to extend tke basis of their. pro- Perty.

When the Belfast !iota occurred the government of Ireland was without a head. In the absence of the Lord- Limit-next from illoess, three Lords Justices had been ap pointed, the Lord Chancellor, the Archbishop of Dublin, and the Lord Jamie., of Appeal. But they were all out of the country enjoying the eaeation. When each returned he woe sworn in, soil it was not till Saturday afternoon that the Lord Justice of Appeal went through the ceremony. At this late boor, and within two or three days of the lyrics! of the new LoniiLieutenant, it is presumed that the Gird Justice of Appeal has been merely qualifying to talc. port in the public reception of his excellency to morroir, and to form a portion of an historical tableau in Dublin Cantle—thc inauguration of the last of the Irish viceroy.. LATEST INTELLIGENCE THE NEW DANISH FROSTIE& A letter of the 3rd inst., from Vienna, in the Independunce of yesterday, says :—" I am in a position to give you some dotails—tho accuracy of which I can guarantee—of Article 5 ui the Dano- German treaty, which has reference to the new boundaries of the frontier. The following are almost the exact terms :—The new frontier will commence at the middle of the embouchure of the Bay of Hejlsminde, on the Little Belt, and, after having crossed that bay, will follow the present southern frontier of the parishes of BOIs, Vejstrup, and Taps, the latter as far as the course of the water which lies to the ,outh of Gejlberg and Brenore. It will then follow this stream from its embouchure in the Fors-Aa, the length of the frontier south of the parishes of Odis and Vaudrup, and of the frontier west of the latter, as far as the KM:alga-Au to the north of !lotto. From this point theThalweg of the KOnigs-Au will form the frontier as far as the eastern boundary of the parish of Iljort lund. Leaving this point the outline will follow this same boundary and its prolongation as far as the salient angle to the north of the village of Obekjar, and then the eastern frontier of this village as far as the Gjels-Sa. From thence the eastern boun dary of the parish of Seem, and the southern boundaries of the parishes of Seem, Ribe, and Vester-Vedsted will be the new frontier, which in the North Sea will pass at an equal distance be tween the Isles of Manoo and Rootnoe. EXPRESS FROM PARIS. nor Om ows cosamosossr.) PARIS. SUNDAY Emma). K Gueroult, deputy for Paris, makes, in the Opinion Nationale, some smart observations on the two despatches of M. Drouyn de Lliuys, pub- Relied in yesterday's Moniteur, which he says suggest a " crowd of reflections." How did it come to pasts that M. Drouyn de Lbuys—who was minister for foreign affairs when the Roman expedition was decided upon in 1849, 1 and who, in 1862, superseded 31. Thouvenel I because the latter was not sufficiently favourable to Pontifical policy--ever signed the convention of September, which stipulates for the recall of the French garrison from Rome 1 That is a constitu tional mystery not to be inquired into, because the ministers are responsible only to the Em peror. The same consideration interdicts the Opinion from considering why it was that M. Dronyu de Linty; who is reputed to be favourable to the maintenance of the temporal power, ever came to sign that despatch of Sept. 12 to M. de Sartiges, which describes with such vigour and clearness both the radical differences in the principles of the two governments and the reasons which led France to put an end to an intervention diametrically at variance with the fundamental principles of her public law. How again came M. Nigra, in giving an account to his government of the negotiations which be happily conducted to a conclusion, to de ceive himself completely as to several essential points ; and how is it that his despatch, inserted in the Moniteur, never repudiated in any respect by its author, but yet completed by explana tions which greatly change its spirit, can after all remain the basis of an understanding now closer than ever I Upon these formidable myste ries the Opinion thinks it could throw some light were it not for the law which now regulates the press, and the two warnings which already hang like a double halter round its neck. However, it ventures as it is to say that the contradictions are only apparent, and that the " fewer the explana tions between the governments of France and Italy the better is the understanding." As to what will happen at Rome when the French troops go away, the truth Is that nobody knows. After all, as the man says iu the play, who knows that the world will exist three weeks hence ? And who knows but that before two years M. Drouyn de Lhuys may be re placed by a minister professing doctrines in regard to the " national aspirations" of Italy quite diffe rent from those of the minister of to-day I But since diplomacy itself does not altogether disdain the field of hypothesis, M. Gueroult submits that " if " a revolution were to break out in Rome after the departure of the French troops, France would probably think twice before going back again, more especially if she had at the bead of her diplomacy the minister who only a few days since wrote to 11. de Sartiges that "our occupation constituted an act of intervention contrary to one of the funda mental principles of our public law, and all the more difficult for us to justify, because our object in assisting Piedmont with our armies wan to emancipate Italy from foreign intervention." After these observations, which I have given in a con densed form, M. Gueroult concludes : After all, the convention is pod for France and good for Italy ; and we taut it will be ratified by the Italian parlia ment. As to the two despatches which serve as a com mentary upon it, had it been the deliberate intention of the concoctors to prevent the convention from being voted, they could scarcely have devised a more appropriate form for the purpose. Snob, of course, cannot have been the design of the minister who signed the treaty ; but a spirit of conciliation of an importunate character must have given a wrong bias to his pea. As it is, the treaty will please nobody. The text will displease at Rome and the commen tary at Turin. It is a concession to the milk-and-water policy of La Prance, which, by striving to be neither this thing nor that, has at last come to be nothing at all, and re mains majestically balanced in void space. We, however, are contented with the recall of our troops, even although we meat leave the France the consolation of the despatches of October 30 and November 2. Let the Francc have words; be ours facts and results. In another article from another pen the Opinion Nationale, referring to M. Nigra's telegram and despatch published unconspicuously in the Moniteur of to-day, gives M. Drouyu de Lhuys great credit fur having given these despatched to the world simultaneously with tthe Official Gazette of Turin, which will not arrive in Paris till to morrow. This despatch shows it thinks that the difference between the two governments is only a matter of form ; "intelligent people will compre hend why upon a picture so glowing the French government has felt it necessary to throw a little judicious shade." The Gazette de "'ranee interprets M. Nigra's de spatch as "making small account of those of M. Drouyn de Lhuys," and notices that it appears "in small print in a little corner of the -Vouiteur among ordinary foreign news.' The Gazette ex presses itself "profoundly sad " that M. Nigra, immediately after an interview with the Emperor, should be found nailing his colours to his first despatch, and, above all, to the Cavour programme —" a free church in a free state." The France publishes the following reply of Deputy Boggio to M. Jules Favre : The telegraph announce* a letter from M. Jules Farris, in which be complain* that a conversation we had together in Paris is incorrectly reported. I understand and appre ciate M. Jules Favre's susceptibility, but he has evidently been led into an error in regard to the tenour of the words used by me. There is nothing in what I ever said in the Chamber, or ever wrote or printed, which could raise any doubt as to M. Favre's opinions on the unity of halt. I said, and (maintain, that M. Fevre in the course of conver sation observed to me that, in the present state of partied in France, no government could, without danger, brave the hatred of the catholic., who are all-powerful through the support of the masses and universal wiff rage, and that, con. sequently, the government which should give up Rome to the Italians would run a most serious risk. There was, therefore, no question between M. Fevre and me about Italian unity so far as principle was concerned. We spoke of Rome and the Pope in the point of view of opportunity, and not otherwise.—l have, &c., P. C. RuGuio. Turin, Nov. 4. It will be observed that although M. llo4gio says M. Jules Favre was "led into error" as to the tueaniug of his words, he does not deny that they were accurately extracted from his pamphlet by the France. lie probably means to say, therefore, that M. Jules Favre led himself into error—a pro position in which the latter will scarcely agree. M. BERRVER.—Thin dietinquiahttil French advo cate arrived io London on Saturday evening from Paris. Lord Brougham who, sinus his departure from Brougham ball, bad been staying a few days at Brighton, artired at his residence in Grafton-street on Friday evening exploit/ay to receive his illustrious friend on his arrival in London. On Saturday evcoing Lord Brougham had a select circle at dinner to meet M. Berryer • the Duke of Wellington, the Marquis of Clanricarde. and ' Sir Fitzroy Kelly being among the guest.. Yesterday evening Sir Fitzroy Kelly had the honour of receiving M. Berryer at dinner at his house in Connanght.place. Covers were laid fur twenty•faur per eons. Among the guests were Lord Brougham, the Duke of Wellington, Lord St. Leonard., Geoersl Sir Henry Storks, Sir Jas. L Knight Bruce ' Viols-Chancellor Sir John Stuiut, the Lord Chief Baron Pdlock, Hon. Edw. Cotton, the Hon. Mr. Theaiger, Hon. George Norton &c. This evening M.

During the evening the ode which wee composed for the opening ceremonies will be sung by Madame Louisa Vinoing, Mime Sasso I'vne. Miss Leffler, Mi. Vernon Rigby, Mr. Lewis Thomas, and a choir of 1,000 voices. The attendance has averested about 7,000 daily at 6d. each. So large a sum has been realised that the committee will not only be enabled to relieve those noblemen and gentle- men who put down their names for various amounts as a guarantee fund of all liability, but will have such a handsome surplus as will render such fund unnecessary on any future occasion ; moreover next year they will be able to offer such valuable prizes and other inducements to the development of the talent and indlstry of the working classes as to ex. tend the exhibition to the artisans of the whole metropolis, and thus dll the galleries as well as the basement of the Agricultural Hall with useful and valuable novel produc tions, IMPORTANT LIFEBOAT SERVICE. BLAKENEY NORFOLK, Nov 5 . . "I have the ilessuitT,';lritostheire;,li. H. 11Bard, "to report that the lifeboat of the National Insti tution here has been instrumental in saving six lives this morning. A French cheese-mares, the Eleanore, of Nantes, came op shore last night, about half-past 9 o'clock, the wind blowing bard from N,N. W., and the eight hazy. At day light she was seen from Blakeney, and the weather being bad and the sea wen heavy, it was determined to send the lifeboat out to her. The vessel was on the West Saud, about an hour's pull from the boathouse. When the lifeboat got alongside it was found that the vessel was aground, water logged , sod rolling very heavily, the sea breaking over her. All hands on her were within a very little of being washed overboard in sight of the lifeboat's crew—they were pre vented only by an oar lashed across the rigging. The poor fellows were overjoyed at the sight of the lifeboat, and only too glad to leave their vessel and get on bea m the boat. They were landed at Blakeney Quay about 10 o'clock. The lifeboat crew speak in the highest possible terms of the boat, and espedsily of her sailing before the wind, with a heavy sea following. They also say that she behaved beautifully in returning under canvas and in pulling out against wind and tide with a very heavy beam sea. The cost of this valuable lifeboat was presented to the National Institution by Miss Fkightwall, of Norwich." .-(THIS DAY.) T. $ LX. TrESDAT. raosaas. ow Kowloon N. &W. &S.E W. LN.F. N. 4 N. 4 R.

The inhabi tants of the Duchies are still uneasy on account of the an nexiooist tendencies of the Prusisn feudal party, and they think, it is said, that the best means of putting a term to these projects would be to proclaim the Prince of Augustan. burg the only candidate recognised by them. REPRESENTATION or IPSWICH.—Mr. J. Kelk having declined after mature consideration to contest Ipswich on oonserrative principles, Mr. W. Tidmas„ of Sutton Bonnington.

Burgoyne, Colonel Lovell, Lieut. Knocker, and • corps of Sappers and Miners from Chatham. The first erpenment was directed to the displacement of the great corner tower in the Cromwell-road, on the left of the greed entrance, in height about 50 feet by 40 square, and 150 tons in weight, the explosive charge being from 100 to 150 lbs. of gunpowder. The fuze having been applied, and the Sappers and Miners having connected it with the electric wires of the battery, some 200 yards away, the signal was given, but the explceion had no perceptible effect on the enormous structure, Wood making • breach ie the bricks at the basement, and causing a cloud of smoke and dust. A secood and a third time supplementary charges°, ammunition were applied and the bugle sounded and the battery fired, but with the same result es before. the tower stood stub bornly, and it was thereupon determined to abandon that part of the experiment., and to operate on the Albert towers at the weeders end of the building, to which the spectators flocked. Here the apparatus of destruction was !gale arraoged, and one half of the first tower came down with • tremendous crash to the mined. amid the applause of the spectators. Further attempts were made to dislodge the other half of the tower, but es it was getting dark further operations were deferr ed.

The appointment, which was made, we undorstaod, in deference to the opinion of the college, will be approved by all who rPgarti the Queen's Colleges as something more than a preserve for Dublin men. The government deserves credit for resisting the pressure Put upon it to limit the range of its choice to a single university. Mr. D'Arcv Thompson, to whom ability and attainments many of the beet scholars in England have borne testimony, stood high in the classical tripos at Cans. bridge in one of the beet years. He is the author of • volume of mettles] translations from Greek and Latin an. thou, entitled " Ancient Leaves," which is marked by ea unusual degree of elegant scholarship, as well as of genuine poetic faculty ; and of a later work —" Day Dreams of a Schoolmaster " of which some of the ablaut periodical critics of Emetic(' and Scotland have spoken in terms of the highest praise. The appointment was made, we believe, strictly upon the met its, and will give general satisfaction.— Northern Whig.
