It has been wisely considered by the opposition that if M. Berryer were to lead the interpellations on the subject of the Post-office dealings with the Count de Chambord's letter the government might plausibly say that he appeared as a legiti mist advocate. M. Lanjuinais is obnoxious to no such suspicion, and he will be supported on principle by men who are as nnich opposed to a Bourbon restoration as the Emperor himself. The order of the day for the Senate to-morrow states that there will be a meeting of the bureaux " to consider a demand for an interpellation pre sented by five senators." Nothing more—not a word about the subject matter of the pro posed interpellations, and not so much as the names of the five signers of the requisition. If this procedure shall form a precedent for the Corps Legislatif, as I have no doubt it will do, under 1 Count Walewski's presidency, the public will know nothing of an interpellation till the moment when it comes on for discussion, and will never hear of it at all if it fails to get through the bureaux, who have power to stifle it in its inception. In this, as in many other cases, there is too much reason to believe that the presiding principle in carrying out the reforms of Jan. 19 will be "to keep the word of promise to the ear, but break it to the hope"—so long at least as the present ministers remain in office. They are all hostile to liberty. If the Emperor seriously de sires to endow the country with " self-govern ment," and to make his reforms worthy of the description given of them in his letter and his speech—and he has obtained large credit in many quarters for serious intentions—he must get new men, Rouher, and Bar►che, and Troplong, and Walewski will never work liberal institutions heartily. Joseph Karam arrived on Saturday at Mar. seines from Alexandria. The Syrian Christian chief is accompanied by his friend Haskell& Kadra and a few of his old adventurous companions. While in Egypt he showed himself in public, and was several times serenaded. But during his momentary stay in France, he either desires to remain quiet or it is judged better for him that he should do so. He has paid a visit to the Bishop of Marseilles. He was to embark for Algiers to day or to-morrow. The Bourse closed with a slight rise, but not at the highest quotations of the day. BRITISH AND FOREIGN FREEDMEN'S AID Socixrr.—A public meeting was held yesterday at Exeter hall, for the purpose of promoting the objects of this so- ciety, but more especially with the view of enlisting the interest of ladies on behalf of theefforts which are being made to improve negro female education on the west coast of Africa by Mrs. Mosely, the widow of the late Chief of the Gold Coast. In the absence of Lord Churchill, who was to have presided, the chair was taken by the Rev, Dr. Schwartz. Mr. Tomkins, the hon. secretary, said it was intended to hold a bazaar in London in aid of the funds of the society at the end of next month, and part of the proceeds would be devoted to the establishment of a female native Christian industrial school in Cape Coast Castle, under the anaphase of Mrs. Mosely. As the society was entirely of a philanthropic character, he trusted its operations in Afnea, as well as in Canada, Jamaica, and South America, would be favoured by public support and recognition. The Rev. Mr. Davis proposed the first resolu tion: ' That in view of the peculiarly favourable opportunity afforded to the provident for the instruction and im provement of the million; of freedmen, it becomes the plain duty of the friends of humanity and of all who desire the advancement of Christian civilisation to seize the occa sion, end to put forth strenuous and systematic efforts to remove the evils that have arisen from past neglect, and to ameliorate the condition of the black and coloured population in America and in the British colonies." The Rev. Mr. French seconded the resolution, which, after being supported by the Rev. Mr. Vincent, was Ulliali mouslya. The Rev. Mr. Jones, negroaleruman, from Canada,proposed the next resolution, which acknowledged the Christian e ff orts which have been and are being made to promote the social advancement of the negro in Canada, Jamaica, and at the Cape Coast. The resolution was seconded by the Rev. Mr. Mather, supported by Mr. Conway, of V ~ irgm and agreed to unanimously. Mr. Tomkins announced that the bazaars would be held under the patronage of the Duchess of Argyle, Lady Churchill, and other Lidice of rank. THE DISTRESS IN THE EAST OF LONDON.—Up 60 1 o'clock yesterday the fund being raised and dispensed by the committee in the City of London, of whom the Lord Mayor is chairman, for the relief of the exceptional dis tress in the east of London in particular, amounted to 13,1764, of which 9,Z.V. had been dispensed through local committees in mitigating the distress—leaving an available balance of 2,9211. This was further reduced by additional grants to the amount of 473/., made yesterday. A meeting of the general relief committee was held at the Mansion-house at 2 o'clock. The Lord Mayor, at the outset, took occasion to may that the comm ittee had need now, more than ever, to confine themselves to the relief of purely exceptional distress, and the more so as the public were slackening in their subscriptions. Their vocation was, therefore, almost gone, and they did not, and ought not, to usurp the functions of the poor-law organisation in the relief of ordinary distress. ho doubt there was very great distress in various parts of the metro polis,aggravated by the dulness of trade, but it was not that which the committee were called into existence to relieve. For some time pest 1,0001. a week had been expended in charity, irrespective of poor-law relief, in relieving the destitute poor and unemployed in Poplar, Limehonse, and Bromley, and but for that timely aid many people there must have gone without food. A weekly sum but little less than that was still being dispensed in that way there; and, considering that the public subscription was relaxing, the committee must, therefore, as a rule, confine their as sistance to the east-end of LOndon as much as possible. Several local committees attended the meeting yesterday— viz., from Walworth, Deptford, Tower-hill, St. George's in-the-East, and other districts. The general opinion among them, with a few exceptions, was that the distress is lessening. That is decidedly the case among the casual dock labourers, but there is, by common consent, a great deal of suffering in various trades, is particularly among seined - remelt As yet, however, there no gleam of re• turning prosperityin the shipbuilding trade on the Thames. Yesterday the committee made a variety of grants. The committee at their rising adjourned until Monday next, at 2 o'clock. KUYTOUS PROCEEDINGS AT WOLVERHAMPTON.— We learn by telegraph that Mr. William Murphy, secre tary to the Protestant Electoral Union, while lecturing against popery last night at Wolverhampton, was o by a number of Irish present, who shouted for hPerral hour, and then commenced an attack on the lecturer and his supporters with portions of chain winch they had pre. viously broken up. The police came to the rescue, and sic of the rioters were arrested. The lecturer was sent off under a police escort. Several magistrates were present. ARRIVAL OF THE BAVARIA.—FALMOUTH, FEB. 18.—The Hamburg steam-ship Dever* Captain Myers, about whose safety much anxiety baa lately been felt tbrosigh he having become known that she was passed in the western ocean, crippled through having lost her rudder, arrived off Falmouth early on Sunday morning. The Bavaria. of 2,400 tons, left Southampto on January 21th. with 177 emigrants, chiefly (termites, and a large general cargo, for New York. During the late gales that prevailed shout that time, in a hurricane on January 30, at about 8 p.m., she carried away her rudder, but received no further damage. Captain Myers at once bore up for England, with the resolution of taking the vessel back without any assistance. Her passage home has been very slow, occupying about 18 days, through her requiring to have the wind a head t o ena bl e her to be steered, and westerly winds having lately pre vailed. She was spoken by several vessels on the way. On arriving off Falmouth her chief officer landed at Fal mouth by a pilot cutter to engage a steam tug, and a tug was prepared and went out, but in the meantime the wind having drawn ahead, the Bavaria was enabled to run into the anchorage without any assistance.

The pieces by Robert Schumann in the following programme were given last night for the first time at these entertainments. _ PART I. -. Quarkt, in F, No - 2 Schumann. Song, The Maiden's Dream." Miss Banks Benedict. la. Arabeske, Solos b. Kreisleriana, N 0.21 for Pianoforte c. Novelletten„No. 2 Schulman. PART 11. Sonata, In 0, Op. 96, for pianoferte and violin Beethoven. Madame Schumann and Herr Joachim. Song, The Pilgrim's Song," Mita Banks Mendelsiohn. Quartet, In G minor, Op. 74, No. 9 Haydn. The " Arabeake " pleased most, from its exquisite grace and comparative simplicity, the other pieces being more complex in character and rhythm. Nothing could be finer than Madame Schumann's perform ance of these solos ; the delicacy and refinement with which she gave the " Arabesku " was as admirable as the energy and power without effort which she imparted to the other pieces, the third being a magnificent display of bravura playing. Excellent also was the read ing of Beethoven's great duet sonata on the part of both pianist and violinist—a finer piece of coneertante playing ✓told scarcely be heard, and its effect on the audience was • tribute to the powers of the artists, as well as to the genius of the composer, since this piece is much less cal culated to impress • large public than the more demon strative " lireutzer " sonata the two works, perhaps each equally great in its way, standing in much the same relation as the E fiat and the G major pianoforte concertos. Mr. Benedict's elegant song (encored), and Mendelssohn's characteristic " lied " were both expresaively sung by Miss Banks, and admirably accompanied by Mr. Benedict ; and Haydn's genial quartet closed an excellent concert. On Monday next the programme will include a sestet, for stringed instruments, by Brahms, one of the moet prominent composers of young Germany ; and Madame Schumann will again be the pianist. Judging from the reception accorded to this lady by the crowded audience of last night, her position hers is now assured beyond the reach of any of the millings of pseudo criticism. Drama. DRURY-LANE. Colman's comedy of the Jealous Wife, with Mr. Plielpa and Mrs. Hermann Vesin as Mr. and Mrs. Oakley, was revived at this house last night, and will only be per formed during the present week. Master Percy Roselle, the best of " infant prodigies," will have a special morning performance for his benefit next Saturday, on which ma siva he will appear in the time•honoured character of " Utile Pickle," and as "Number Nip" in the still popular pantomime. OLYMPIC. A new farce, probably of German origin, called Alittrociolui Criminal, was produced at this house last nit at a very late hour. The plot is incoherent, and the chit character, though well played by Mr. John Clayton, requires the unequalled vivacity and volubility of Mr. Charles Mathews to snake it effective. Two more revivals of old Lyceum pieces, Laraler and A Comical Countess, are underlined at this theatre. eintbersittp IntelltgetTre. CAMBRIDGE, PEA 18. 4HE REGIUS PROFESSORSHIP OF GRERIC.-lt be recollected that the vacancy in this professorship spa caused by the resignation of the present master of Trinity College, Dr. Thompson, and that four candidates Iposented themselves to fill the vacancy, viz., Dr. Ken nedy, head master of Shrewsbury School, of St. John', Collfte ; the Rev. Richard °billet*, of Trinity College ; Mx. Cope, of Trinity College; and Mr. Holmes, now of Clare College, but formerly of St. John's. In accordance with the statutes, the expounding of certain theses by the several candidates took place on Friday and Saturday last, said to-day the electors (the members of the council of the senate) attempted to decide what was evidently a very difficult question—the relative merits of the candidates. They separated without coming to a decision, and it is now a moot point whether the actual appointment will not have to be left in the hands of the Chancellor of the University. *parting intelligence.

The first really business-like gathering of the season presented itself at Albert-Rate to-day, and the Uncoliabite Handicap aus piciously Inaugurated the handicap wagering of the ensuing campaign. The huge amount of support accorded to Beadle on Saturday and again this morning had the effect of advancing him to the position of first favourite, the offers against the Duke of Hamilton's horse being limited toe to 1 : and the reason of this offer not being accepted probably was that backers had ex hausted themselves in their divestments elsewhere. MI6. Allan, the successor of Christmas Carol, continued to receive the coun tenance of her friends, and wherever 100 to It was obtainable, It was accepted: John Halifax, however, closely trod upon her heels, all the 10's to 1 offered In the first instance lining quickly secured, and subsequently his backers took 9 to 1, and were no doubt further gratified to hear a large bookmaker offer to heck It against anything for a thou sand. Leases—ln moderate request only —was supported twice or thrice at 11 to 1, after a hard struggle, however, to obtain • point more. Me odds of 100 to 9 against Bismarck were not con sidered gaud enough by his friends, but they appeared ready to invest ate slight advance upon this price. The Special, who came with a rush at the clubs In the morning, was in consider able force at BM to a, and Fortunatus. another candidate newly promoted from the rear ranks, was liberally patronised at 100 to 6. This price was al fo taken about Lady Pans, and upon the eight horses thus enunterated the weight of the market rested. Copenha ten failed to find favour at 100 to 6, and the compara tively long odds against Fandervekle were apparently considered no catch. The two re—Vigorous and VI.. lent—occupied, appropriately enough, precisely the same pugilism, 100 to 3 being accepted one moment, and offered the next ; while 1,000 to 90 was to be had against the Into pair. Two outsiders, Montagnard aftero Lincoln filly, come notice for the first time. but receiving some trifling support, quickly died out of notice. The prospects of Weather 1 Star were not very brightly foretold by the offers of 50 to 1, and old Mccharometer received his quietus, 100 to 1 going A sake, signed by Messrs. Weatherby, and dated the lt i aft dg raa In the room, declaring Christmas Carol to he scratched. rm' et te U d me and attention of speculators was so much taken up by this event, that the other spring handicaps were scarcely men. tined. John Halifax would, however, have been supported for the City Rini suburban at 10 to 1, but 1,000 to 60 was the highest offer. For the Two Thousand Plaudit was in very slight request: 4 to 1 would have been accepted, but the layers' limit 'c 100 to M. Julius, on the other hand, exhibited signs of lifcressiug confidence 900 to 100 was taken in one bet, and several smaller transactions were effected on the same terms. The General was also backed for u " termer" at 95 to I. When the Derby came on the tants there were unmistakable symptoms of the itake's decline, for although the partisans of Mr. yor's colt were challenged with gto 1, not one of them would take up the gauntlet. The desire to lay against Plaudit also manifested Itself, lY to 1 being persistently offered, and meeting only with • single response to back him at a point more. The taking of 1,040 to 40 about Hermit was an incident positively refreshing. considering how frtquently the tisane of Mr. Chap lin's colt has been mentioned lately, without producing any sign. About Master Butterfly 1.000 to 35 was accepted, and the day's proceedings closed with the following sluotabobs LI:.:COA.N . iBHIRW.. HANDICAP. Bto 1 agst Bat IMb (dr 100 to Lord Wilton newel Mn.

BRIOHT, M.P., AND MR. FORSTER., M.P., ON TIRE GOVERNMENT REFORM REHOLFTIONS.—Yesterday evening • large public meeting, convened under the auspices of the Bradford branches of the National Reform Union and the National Reform League, was held in the hall of the Mechanise' Institute, at Bradford, for the purpose of considering the reform resolutions of the government. The hall was crowded. Alderman Godwin (late mayor) occupied the chair. The following letters received by the secretary were read:—" Rochdale, Feb. 16, 18b7. Dear Sir.—l think your resolutions very good. The course taken by the government is an insult to the house, and • gross offence to the whole body of reformers in the country. I cannot say what the house will do till after the meeting 'which is called for Thursday next. The administration is bitterly hostile to reform. When in opposition this was abundantly proved, and it is con firmed by its course since its accession to office. It has not the honesty or the courage to pronounce boldly against reform, but it seeks to murder the cause and the question by a eourse contrary to parliamentary usage, and odious in the sight of all honest men. If the house joins in the guilt of this proceeding, it will only add to the distrust with which it is now regarded by vast multitudes of the people in all parts of the country. You are right in holding meetings, and in every town and village meet ings should be held. Already they have been held more generally and more numerously attended than nt any other time since) vra. Hitherto the effect seems little, so far as we may judge from the action of the administration, and whether further meetings will produce any greater effect, I cannot undertake to say. But I venture to say this, that a government, unmindful of the opinion ex pressed so clearly in the great centres of our population is running the country into great peril. If meetings have no effect—if the open and almost universal expression of opinion has no power on the administration and the legis lature- then inevitably the minds of the people will seek other channels with • view to obtain and secure the rights which are now contemptuously denied them. If lam wrong in believing this, their history is a lie from the be ginning, and we have sill been mistaken in our estimate of the causes out of which many of the great and deplo rable transactions it has recorded have sprung. I under stand that in Birmingham a great demonstration of opinion is contemplated, and I suppose that other parts of the country will have something to say to an administration which abdicates its functions, and is ready to betray both Queen and people, that it may remain in office for another session. —I am, with great respect, yours truly, JOHN BIUGHT.—The Secretary of the Bradford Branch of the Reform Union."—" NO, Rocleston.square, S.W., Feb. 15, 1867.—Dear Sir,—l am obliged to you for your note of the 14th inst., enclosing the opinion of the Mulford Reform Union on Mr. Disraeli's resolutions, in which I moat cordially concur. I have myself no doubt whatever that the House of Com. mons ought to refuse to consider these resolutions unless the government state first what reduction of franchise they propene ; but whether or not the House of Own/none takes this course will depend upon the opinion expressed in the country.—l am, dear sir, yours truly, W. E. Foxerms" A letter was also read from Lord F. Caven dish, who also regards the government etoposal WI moat unsatisfactory, but having full confidence in the leaders of the liberal party he is prepared to follow whatever course they may recommend as the best means of obtaining • wise and liberal settlement of the question. Resolutions condemnatory of the government proposition were unani mously adopted. Muss GLYN'S READINOS.—SO great was the suc ceu of the two series of Shakesperian readings recently ' given by Miss Glyn at the St. James'adiall that they are to be followed by • third series, which will commence this evening with Hamlet. The other selected plays are Zing John and Antony and Clenpatra. which will respectively be read on the 22nd inst, and the let of March. CRYSTAL PALACE. Own SHILLING DAY.-- MONDAY, FEB. 18.

The following telegrams were received from Kil larney to-day :—" Monday.—Everything is tranquil here. There were ten arrests yesterday, in the neighbourhood of Kells, of peasantry believed to have been insurgents, one of whom has been iden tified. Eighty soldiers of the 48th Regiment moved to Sneem to get here, with fifteen police from Dublin." " Monday Evening.—The excite ment is abating. Some ten or twelve arrests are reported near Cahirciveen, principally on sus picion. Three men-of-war have been stationed in Kenmare River. Troops have been despatched to Sneem and other remote localities. Universal confidence prevails in the power of the government to prevent any attempt at further disturbance." (fox ova owa ooIasISPONDINT.) CORK, Selmer. Every day dwarfs the proportions of the Fenian insurrection in Kerry. It started with a force of 1,200 to 1,500 men ; in a day the estimate was down to 500 ; and now the wildest alarmist would not even hint that there were at any time more than 150 persons engaged in the affair. Some very sceptical persons doubt that an insur rection were designed at all ; and it is a remarkable thing that since the shooting of the policeman on Wednesday night there is no evidence of a single Fenian having been seen in arms anywhere. Of all the soldiers, and sharp policemen, and vigilant magistrates, now in Killarney, not one has been able to discover the ghost of a rebel in the neighbourhood, though every hill and glen in the country for miles around has been scoured by military detachments. The troops engaged in this work belong to the GOth Rifles and the 48th Foot. The men do not find it at all pleasant tramping through the dense furze and heath in the mountains, tumbling over unseen boulders, and dropping into unexpected bog holes, with, as it ap pears to them, no particular object. While on the heights on Thursday night some men of the 60th imagined that they heard Fenian words of com mand, such as " Steady, boys," " Form fours," &c., but the persons who uttered these commands were hidden as in the cloak of darkness of the fable. The result of the search up to the present has been the discovery of an old pair of military boots and a few cartridges. The troops in Killarney are, approximately 380 Ist battalion 14th Regiment, under Colonel Budd and Major Hawley; 360 of the 48th, Major Knox; 250 2nd battalion GOth Rifles, Colonel Palmer ; juid 200 Gth Foot. A few of the Scots Greys am, also in town ) who do orderly duty l and two troops of the 12th Lancers, with three guns from Fermoy, whose arrival was reported, are expected to-night. At last mass in Killarney to-day the Right Rev. Dr. Moriarty denounced the Fenian in the strong. eat terns. His language appeared to excite a feel ing of indignation in the congregation, and several persons left the church. SUNDAY EVENINO.—The followildespetch was received from Killarney to-day :—unday Morn ing.—From 5 to half-past 5 o'clock this morning soldiers have been leaving the town for the moun tains. About 200 men apparently left on 30 or 40 cars. The greater number of the FCIIIIIIII are be lieved to be in hiding in the Black Valley, Cooma Dhuv, at the other side of Toomies. A person who arrived last night from Cahircivcen says about 100 men in American uniform were seen that morning coming from the direction of Cahirciveen, as if to reinforce their friends on the mountain. "Two troops of Lanoers arrived here by the quarter to 10 train to-day. Mr. Galwey returned to tow n last night. Be was on the track of the Fenians, but captured none of them." THE REPRESENTATION or CORK.—We learn by telegraph that Mr. Macarthy Downing has withdrawn his candidature for the county of Cork. The contest is now between Mr. Smith Barry and Mr. Vincent Scully. At a meeting of liberal electors, held yesterday, the claims of the two candidates were discussed, and the show of hand• was in favour of Mr. Scully. EAST SUFFOLK ELECTION.--(BY TELEGRAPH.) — At the close of the poll yesterday the numbers were as follows :—Corrance (conservative), 2,506 ; Adair (liberal), 2,l3s—majority for Corrance, 371. - - REFORM MELTING AT BRISTOL.—We learn by telegraph that a great reform meeting was held last night in the Drill-hall, Bristol ; the mayor in the chair. At least 6,000 persons were resent, and resolutions were passed unanimously declaring that the government pro . position offered no hope of a satisfactory measure, and that no bill would be satisfactory which does not admit the working chases to the franchise, give the protection of the ballot, and provide for the equal distribution of seats. A petition to the Home of Commons was adopted, and thanks were voted to themenderi for the borough.

REVISION or THE LICENSING SYSTEM. —A meet ing of vice-presidents of the recent conference and other gentlemen took place on Saturday afternoon at the Earl of Shaftesbury's residence in Grosvenor-square, witb a view of determining what further steps should be taken with reference to this subject The meeting was attended by the following noblemen and gentlemen:—The Maria of Shaftesbury and Lichfield, Lords Lyttelton and Eliot, M.P., Mr. W. E. Forster, M.P., Mr. Ayrton, M.P., Mr. Morrison, M.P., Mr. Eykyn, M.P., Colonel Sykes, M.P., Mr. Fordyce, M.P., the Most Rev. Dr. Manning. Sir J. K. Shuttleworth, Sir John Bowrirg, the Rev.• S. Han sard, H. Polly, and W. Rumen, Mr. S. Sally, F. 11.3., and Mr. C. J. Rihton-Turner, the secretary. The question RS to the desirability of holding an adjourned meeting of the conference was discussed, and it was decided that, con sidering the pressure of business before je , rliament, it was expedient to postpone the birth( r public consideration of the subject fur the present. An executive committee was RAILWAY AND OTHER.

There was no appearance made by the parties to the Dublin Harbom Board unopposed petition. The trial of Stephen Joseph Meany for treason felony took place on Saturday at the Commission Court, Dublin, before Barons Fitzgerald and Hughes. The case established against him was that he held the rank of senator en the Fenian organisation, and that he made se veral speeches at various Fenian m.. Lino in America- Evidence was also given to show that he was connected with James Stephens. The jury, after half an boor's de liberation, returned • verdict of guilty. A point raised by the prisoner's counsel stands over for argument.
