Beaks writes to the Daily Neva:— "Au to the threatened proceedings against myself and others for what took place last Monday, when the people are admitted to have acted so admirably—as they would have equally acted last July if they had been themselves unmolested and admitted within the park—l have little anxiety. The notice served upon me at the delegate meet ing at the Sussex Hotel was not, in law, worth the paper it WAX printed upon. Looking at the position of the crown, and the government as representing the crown, with regard to the tenure of Hyde-park, and at my own posi tion and rights as one of the public in respect of that park, I view with much indifference the alleged intention of my friends, the law officers, to attempt to convict me of troo ps's. Moreover, Ido not believe that the Queen herself wishes the public right to bo interfered with. " CONGREGATIONAL T. TT NlON.—Yenterday the pro ceedings connected with the thirty-seventh annual assembly of this Union were brought to a close. The session was again bald in the Weigh House Chapel, and the Rev. Dr. J. R Campbell presided. The Rev. H. le Pasteur timelier, who appeared as • delegate from the Union of Evangelical Free Churches in France, gave • few details of the manner in which these churches were working. in the name of the churches he repre sented he conlially thanked the Congregational Union of England for the sympathy and support it had so heartily rendered. The Rev. A. Hannay, M.A., next read a paper on the ecclesiastical state of the country, in which he dwelt upon the anarchy at present produced by the Ritualists, the Rationalists, and Coinprehensionists. Upon the conclusion of Mr. Hannah's paper, which was loudly cheered, the Rev. W. M. Statham moved the following aeries of resolutions :—" That this assembly, having regard to the efficiency and honour of the church of Christ and to the spiritual in terests of the people of England, have observed with much regret the progrem of errors within the pale of the esta blished church—Romanistic errors, which invest the mi nisters of religion with the prerogatives of a priesthood, degrade the commonly acknowledged rites of Christians to a superstitious use, and depreciate the preaching of the gospel which. *wording to apostolic precedent, is the lead ing function of the Christian ministry ; and rationalistic errors, which rob Christianity of the peculiar honours and the impressive claims upon the faith of men, which it owes to its supernatural origin and the inspiration of its records. T ha t, as the established church has practically ceased to have any distinctive creed, or form of worship, this assembly desire to put on record their deliberate opinion that the authority and power of the church, as a national institution, are being largely abused to the un settlement of men's faith and the hindrance of pure and Scriptural rvllhinu in the land. That this assembly, believing, in view of the tendencies of modern thought, that no established church is now possible in England which shall not comprehend all the diversities and contradictions of teach and ritual which are dis tracting the existing est ablished church, desire to renew their testimony as embodied in the Declaration of Faith and order adopted in Ittl3, namely, that ' • Christian church is purely spiritual, and should in no way be corrupted by union with the temporal or civil power,' and to express their deep conviction that only the separa tion of the church from the state can under present circumstances prevent the national sanction of supersti. tie's sod unbelief." These resolutions were seconded by Rev. W. Cuthbertsoo, and were then debated for nearly two hours, the current of opinion being principally con firmative of them. Upon being put from the chair, they appeared to be carried unanimously. The Rev. Newman Hall next read a paper on open air preaching, and the subject gave rise to a series of short speeches. A number of official resolutions were then pawed. after which the aniembly adjo^rned to diancrat the Bridge-hove Hotel. LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, MAY 11, 1867. TELEGRAPHIC INTELLIGENCE.

PRUSSIA. BERLIN, MAT 10, Et ENING. Midler. Correspondence of this evening says : " It is expected that at the end of this week the plenipotentiaries at the conference will sign a treaty which will be seen to be a result affording satisfaction to all parties. The only dark side of the situation is the armament going on in -France. It is to be expected that this will also disappear, since everybody knows from the experience of last year what armaments if continued may signify." The same journal says :—" As might be expected, the relations between the Prussian court and the King of the Greeks are extremely friendly.

Up to a late hour on Thursday evenine the pro tooolists, the Hon. Julian Pane and Mr. P. H. W. Currie, were occupied with the proceedings which had taken place at the Conference. CANCER HOSPITAL, BROMPTON. —Yesterday the sixteenth annual meetiug of the friends and supporters of this valuable charity was held in the board-room, 167, Piccadilly; Mr. J. 'vett Briscoe, M.P., presided. The report, read by Mr. Cockerill, the secretary, expressed profound regret for the lamented decease of the late Dr. Marsden, to whose benevolent sagacity and zeal this charity owes its origin. and as a fitting memorial it was in tended to open un additional ward, which, being especially dedicated to his name, would extend the usefulness of the charity, and at the mine time do honour to his memory. A great increase in the number of beds would be made should the continued support of the public warrant the step. Unlimited admission for advice end medicines were offered to out-patients, both at the hospital at Brampton and in Piccadilly. Cures had been effected and exten sive relief afforded in numerous instances of cancer. Dur ing the year 147 patients had been admitted into the wards, 339 in and out door patients had passed under treatment, 14 had been successfully operated upon, and many cases cured, so far as rime will yet show. The Num ber of attendances amounted to the large total of There hall been received in donations, 1,4071. 7a.: annual subscriptions, 6201. 15e. ; lemmies, 9,t26/. Die. ; interest, Le., 46/. 19s. 10d. The practice of the hospital, with its valuable museum of prepare tiorm, of diagrams, S.A., of oases of cancerous type, are thrown open for the inspection of medical practi tioners, and it was hoped that arrangements would be made for courses of lectures on the treatment of cancer. The report concluded with thanks to Miss A. Bnrdett Coutts for her continued liberality, as also to Mr. W. J. Ferrer, for accepting the office of one of the trustees in the room of the late Dr. Marsden, to the Rev. M. Liberty, the chaplain, the lady visitors, the weekly board, Mr. W. L. Ferrer, treasurer, to Dr. Alexander Marsden, and Mr. Weelen Cooke, surgeons, and to all friends and sup. porters of the institution for their unfailing interest in its welfare. After tho election of officers, Ac., the pro ceedings concluded. METROPOLITAN BOARD OP WORE& - -The mem bers of this board met yesterday at their offices, Spring gardens ; .Sir J. Thwaites in the chair. The report from the Works and General Purposes Committee was brought up by Mr. Newton. It recommended "That the Poplar Dis trict Board be permitted to connect the sewers constructed by them in streets leading out of Bow-common-lane and Devon's-road with the Low Level Sewer ; that additional pumping power be provided for that purpose at the tem porary pumping station at Abbey Mills, at a cost of about 601. per week ; that the engineer be instructed to make the necessary preparations for that purpose, at a cost of about 5001. ; and that so much of the order of the board of the 21st December last (No. 28) as prohibits the posing of drainage into the sewers in question until the engines at the Abbey Mills pumping station are completed be not further acted on." After a few observations from some of the members, it was approved. The following report was presented from the Cattle Plague Committee, Spring gardens, May 6, 1867 "It is with considerable regret Vitt your committee are called upon to report that ano ther case of cattle plague has occurred in the metropolis, viz., at the premises of Mr. W. Rance, 250, New North road, and Sheppertgan-yard, Islington. Mr. Manse's stock consisted of 19 cows, three heifers, and one bull, eight of which being affected with the plague and 11 others in contact with them have been slaughtered. This is the third outbreak of plague in the metro polis this year. The first case being that of Mrs. Nicholls, of Liverpool-road, Islington, which occurred on the 29th of January, when animals affected with the plague, and four others which had been in contact with them, were slaughtered. Tho second ease is that of Mr. Jennings, of George-street, Lincoln's-inn-fields. The plague broke out on these premises on tile 311th of April last, and the stock, consisting of 10 cows, viz., four affected withthe plague and si x incontact with there, have subseci uen tly been slaughtered. The premises of Mr. Jennings and Mr. )tame, and the streets, kc..contiguousthereto, have been declernd infected places, in accordance with the order of the Privy Council, dated March 24th, ls, 6." After some further business of p no_ublic interest being transacted the board adjourned. THE FENIANS UNDER SENTENCE OP DEATH.— The London correspondent of the Fr, mna's Journal writes—The memorial staking government to spare the limes of the Fenian. who have been sentenced to death promises to be most successful, and the originators of the merciful movement, the O'Donoghue, Mr. Maguire, and Sir John Gray, are still actively engaged in promoting it further. Already it has received the signatures of over a hundred members of parliament, and ere long this number will be largely increased. The memorialista indude nearly all sections of the house, who, though strongly and determinedly opposed to the Fenimemovement, are, never thelem, moat desirous that none of the unfortunate men implicated should suffer the extreme penalty of the law for their folly and credulity. We here are mare than disappointed that a movement similar to that initiated the other day by the loyal people of of Kilkenny has not been actively prosecuted in your city. The memorial here contains the name of John Bright, Lord Annesley, Professor Fawcett, Right Hon. F. Cogan, Sir John Gray. Sir John Sharon, J. Bagwell, Mr. Stanfield, J. S. Mill, Lord Eliot, H. S. Barry, Serjeant Barry, TheO'Doneghue, T. F. Maguire, and Colonel Greville. Afluott. ROYAL ITALL%N OPERA. Donizetti's Luria di Lammermuor was given hen: on Thursday night with Male.

The Royal Commissioners on Railways have at length made their report, which has been anticipated with considerable anxiety by those concerned in tho railway interest. The document sums up in great detail the re sults arrived at from the mass of evidence adduced before the commission, and gives judgment against the proposi tion that the railway system should be taken under the control of the state. The general conclusion of the com missioners is, in short, than no comprehensive plan shall be undertaken, and that the dealing with the railway sys tem shall be confined to modifications in private bill legis lation, and in the management by the companies. The report says : We are of opinion that it is inexpedient at present to subvert the policy which has hitherto been adopted of leaving the construction and management of railways to the free enterprise of the people, under such conditions as par liament may think fit to impose for the general welfare of the public. We consider that there is not sufficient reason for ex cepting Ireland from this general conclusion ; but, as it has been the established policy to assist railways and other public works in Ireland - , we recommend that, when parlia ment thinks fit to make advances to Irish railway companies, the money should be lent for a fixed period of considerable length, so as to enable the company to develop its resources before it is called on for repayment. We are, however, of opinion that advances should not be made to the Irish rail way companies as a condition of reducing their rates and fares ; but that as the railway companies have the best opportunities of judging whether rates can be reduced so as to be recuperative within a reasonable tune, Cuiy should be left to carry out such experiments at their own risk. We recommend that parliament should relieve itself from all interference with the incorporation and the finan cial affairs of railway companies, leaving each matters to be dealt with under the Joint Stock Companies Act, and should limit its own action to regulating the construction of the line, the relations between the public and joint stock companies so incorporated; requiring such guarantees as may be necessary for the purpose of securing the due performance of the conditions upon the faith of which the parliamentary powers of the company have been granted. We do not consider that it would be expedient, even if it were practicable, to ado;:t any legislation which would abolish the freedom railway companies enjoy of charging what sum they deem expedient within their maximum rates, when properly defined, limited as that freedom is by the toeditions of the Traffic Act; but we are of opinion that railway companies should be required to give a reasonable notice of their intention to raise their rates of charge. We are unable to see any method of ensuring punctu ality in passenger trains by means of legiatitive enact ments, except that proposed by the committee of the House of Commons in 1858, viz., that punctuality should be guaranteed, and that passengers injured by delay should be enabled to recover summarily a fixed sum; but we have already referred to the *nations to this proposal. We are of opinion the railway companies should be Found, under adequate penalties, to give at least a week's notice of any alterations of time of their regular passenger trains. e do not consider that any direct legislative enact ments would cause greater economy in the working of railways; but we are of opinion that with the object of affording a more accurate view of the operations of the rail way companies, and of making any undue extravagance apparent, and thus stimulating economy, it is desirable that the several railway companies should render their accountsto the Beard of Trade, showing receipts from traffic and the detailed cost of working the line, upon a uniform plan ; and that, after consultation with the railway com panies, the Board of Trade should not only prescribe the form of such returns and accounts, but lay down the heals on which they are to be computed. Parliament has relied, for the safe working of railways, upon the efficiency of the common law and of bord:Caunp bell's Act, which give persons injured and near relatives of persons killed a right to compensation. We consider that this course has been more conducive to the protection of the public than if the Beard of Trade had been em powered to interfere in the detailed arrangements for working the traffic. SOCIETY FOR PROMOTING CHRISTIAN KNOW LEDOL—A meeting in furtherance of the designs of this society was held yesterday afternoon,•Limes's-hall, under the presidency of the Archbishop of Canterbury. Amongst those piesent were—Lord Lyttelton, Mr. Acland, M.P., the Bishops of Oxford, Llandaff, Chester, Lich field St. Amish, rind Antigua, Archdeacon Bickersteth, Canon Hawkins, Rev. Dr. Miller, Rev. Dr. Currey, Rev. Dr. Bihar, Rev. Daniel Moore, lc. It appears from the statement respecting the society's operations that during the past year upwards of 837,000 copies of the Bible and Pnsyerbook have been circulated at • charge upon the charitable funds of the society of not less than 14,0001., •id religious books and tracts of an instructive and enter taining, tbongh not of • directly religious character, have been distributartothi numbs of 6,097,52 d. Frequent grants of books have been made for the use of English soldiers. The militia, too, in Dorset, Manta, Herta, Middlesex, /ix., have received books ; while English troops abroa d not been neglected, whether in India, Malta, Canada, or the Mauritius. Many books have als o been granted for the use of sailors ; and provision has been continued for the visitation of emigrants at several seaport towns. Though the society has been most reluctantly obliged to refuse all applications for money grants for building churches and s, schools in the colonies during the past year, it has still been able to make grants of Bibles and Common Prayers, books and tracts, and other publi citions. Some of these have been sent in greater or smaller numbers to almost every colonial diocese, and the society's publications have been circulated in India, Borneo, South and Central Africa, Sierra Leone. and Liberia ; in Australia, New Zealand, and British North America ; in the West Indies, the Mediterranean, At. Parochial libraries have been assisted in very many parts of England, and there is scarcely any kind of institution or asylum for the benefit of the poor that does not find its place in the list of objects helped by special grants of books made during the last l _ months. Hospitals, asylums, homes, reformatories, penitentiaries, ragged schools, young men's associations, working men's institutes, and many others, are among the number. Addresses in furtherance of the objects of the meeting and appealing far increased support having been delivered by the Bishop of Oxford, Lord Lyttelton, Mr. Acland, M.P., and others, the proceedings terminated. OPERATIVE. .JEWISH CONVERTS' INSTITUTION.— The annual meeting of this institution was held last even ing, in the London Tavern, the Hon. W. Ashley in the chair. The report, which was read by the Rev. Mr. Gray, the secretary, stated that the sear commenced with fifteen in itiates. and within the twelve months twenty-five more were admitted, some on probation and others for the regu lar time of three years. Of the forty persons who, more or less, partook of the privileges which the institution offered, thirteen had left, five of whom were unbaptised. During the past year the number of applicants for ad- mission had been large. Seven were refused by the com mittee for various reasons— some on account of age, others because they deemed them unfit to enter, and others again because they seemed unlikely to remain or to derive profit from the training which the institution afforded. During the year fourteen of the inmates had been confirmed and had become communicants. Re ferring to the secular benefits conferred, which embrace food, clothing, and all other necessaries, together with industrial occupation for present advantege,and the know ledge of a respectable trade for future support, the report stated that considerable progress had been made, and that the gross receipts for work done in the printing and book binding trades during the last year had amounted to 4.721/. 12s. fid. This sum represented the largest amount of work hitherto executed. Further assistance in this respect was earnestly desired. The contributions of last year, including special contributions to the steam press, amounted to 1,1511. 211. ; and the committee solicited an increase of income, with the view of enabling them to ex tend their expenditure to 1,0001. per annum. The re port, on the motion of the Rev. Mr. Bruce, seconded by the Rev. L. White, was unanimously adopted. [STAMPED, id.' AL DITIONAL. Spurting intelligence. DONCASTER SPRING MEETING.-PAIDAY.
