Upon this point the LORDS di:76mm differed. No evi dence was produced to show that this nobleman, though he consented to become a director, aver undertook or intended to become a member, or to be a holder of the stock of the Company. It ap peared to them, therefore, that although he con sented to be a director, he was not a partner in the concern. But Lord Amutooax had done some• thing more. Although he did not attend to the affairs of the Company, still a sum of 105/. was invested in the funds of the society in his name, and the dividends of this sum were paid to Messrs. Courrs and Co., his lordship's bankers. This sum of 1051. was the sum due for fees to which Lord Aszacolur was entitled as a director. Now, the fact that Lord ABERCOHN, through his bankers, received the divi dends of this small sum, satisfied the Muir= of the Roue that he must be placed on the list of contributories, to discharge the debts of the Company. On the other hand, it appeared that Lord ABERCORN was entirely ignorant of the fact that this sum was invested, and that although he knew that certain small payments were made by way of dividend, neither he nor his bankers understood the nature or cause of the pay ments thus made.

Tex intelligence received by the steamer City of New York will, we presume, put an end to the ingenious explanations by which earlier informa tion to the same effect was shown to be ground less and illusive. All that remains now to be said on that side of the question is, that the fall of Now Orleans was foreseen long ago, and that it is the very best thing that could have happened for the Southern cause. _ _ Loans Jurneas came to the conclusion that the Marquis should not be deemed a contributory. Neither the purchase of the 1051. investment was authorised, nor had his hankers, Messrs. Courrs, ever been directed to do any act by which he was recognised as the holder of the investment in question. But whilst Lord ABERCORN is relieved from all pecuniary liability by the decision of the Loans JUSTICE% it must be admitted that throughout the whole transaction this nobleman has been guilty of the most culpable negligence. So clearly, indeed, was this fact established that the Loans Jurricas have directed that he shall not receive his costs. Although Lord ABERCORN may not have made himself liable for the debts incurred by Mr. Parrs MoamsoN, it is but too certain that his name may have induced many an unfortunate tradesman or helpless woman to intrust her money to the hands of the man whose moneytraps were baited by such aristocratic names. Few people have any means of judging as to the real merits of any commercial speculations except by the names of its trustees and directors, and other people connected with it. It would be an insult to the common sense of Lord AMCORN to sup pose that he lent his name either as a director or as a trustee without some object. Even the auda cious ingenuity of Mr. Per= Moasisos did not attempt to decoy his victims by the pretence of charity. It is to be presumed that in lending his name Lord Aaratcosar looked forward to some possible benefit. If noblemen cannot live to their mind upon their hereditary property, or upon the produce of orthodox investments, such as land and the funds, let them put off all dis guise, and become merchants and tradesmen. But when they adopt the mercantile line let them do it in earnest. The chairman of a company must look to the affairs of the company ; the noble banker must sit in his back parlour ; the noble wine merchant must see that the wine sent out to his customers is not adulterated ; the noble baker must see that the bread and morning rolls are kept pure. The Secession Mayor of the City appears to I have behaved very much as might have been ex pected of the representative of • party which had surreptitiously resorted to arms and failed. The complaint of the pressure of brute force comes with a singular grace from those who, living under the freest constitution the world ever saw, declined all conference, and seized arms the first time the national vote was given against them. New Orleans has probably chosen a Union Mayor before this time, and the flag difficulty has been got over. The reluctance with which this great city entered into the rebellion is well known. The reports about the movements of General Baku nr.ozzn are too uncertain to be relied on, but they nevertheless deserve attention. The more the situ ation of that Confederate leader is examined the more untenable will it appear. The difficulty in accepting the statement that he has gone to Memphis arises from the difficulty of perceiving how such • march would improve his position. The surrender of Fort Macon, on the coast of North Carolina, to General BURNSIDE, is in itself an advantage of some importance, and moreover makes that General's force once more disposable. 1311.125.

The Monifeur, in its bulletin of this morning, says : "According to news from Mexico to the llth ultimo, eid Havana, the allied plenipotentiaries bad not been able to come to a common understanding. " General Prim had announced his resolution to re-embark his troops, and had sent for the neces sary transports to Cuba. Marshal Serrano, Cap tain-General of Cuba, after having taken the advice of the civil and military authorities of Havana, did not consider himself justified in acceding to this demand, and invited General Gossett to return to Mexico and take the com mand of the Spanish troops should General Prim persist in his determination to return. " The French troops were to repass Chiquiliuite on the 20th of April, in other to commence hos tilities immediately." KLEOTORA L HESSE. CASSEL, MAY 15. The official Kander Zeitung of to-day announo 634 the electoral government has made a declara tion to the Federal Diet, justifying the late ordinance respecting the elections. The govern ment further stated that the wish of the Federal Diet that the election, should be stopped could not be complied with, on account of the consti tutional duties of the Elector. Up to yesterday evening the Elector had not yielded to the demands of Prussia and Austria. The Chief Mayor has notified to the Director of the Police that, as an individual elector, he would not give in a declaration to adhere to the constitu tion of 1860, as ordered by the ordinance of 26th April last ; but in his capacity of commissioner superintending the pending elections, he would fulfil the duties of his office.

The reception of Prince Napoleon at Naples, as official as enthusiastic, is not the only confirmation that we get from Italy of the received opinion that the denial by the Moniker of his official mission was simply a fib. General Durando, the only Italian minister left at Turin during the King's ab sence, has been suddenly sent for to Naples, and it is not doubted there that he is wanted to take part in a serious discussion of the Roman question. A clerical journal published under the eyes of the Holy See said on the 9th inst. that "a catastrophe is perhaps at hand." A most wholesome symptom is that numbers of Italian priests, and some bishops, who till very lately were most hostile to the Italian government, have suddenly changed their tone, and seem preparing to swell the free church movement. The King and Queen of Holland both leave Paris this evening, their visit having been shortened by a few days. They do not go together. The Queen leaves at 9 o'clock by the Eastern Railway for Stuttgard. The King goes at 10 by the Northern Railway for the Hague. A farewell dinner of forty covers is given at the Tuileries this evening. The new guest, Said Pacha, Viceroy of Egypt, has arrived at Toulon. He will pass the greater part of to-morrow in that port, start for Mar seilles in the evening, remain at Marseilles on Friday, visit Lyons on Saturday, and arrive at the Tuileries on Sunday. It is rumoured that the Sultan is displeased at the extraordinary pomp and ceremony with which the Emperor purposes to receive his vassal, who is only regarded at Con stantinople as a simple pacba. This is the dint ', time that a Viceroy of Egypt has visited Francs. When Ibrahim Pach► came to see Louis Philippa he was only the heir apparent to the viceroyalty ; and he was not lodged at the Tuileries, but at the Elyse Bourbon. Four columns of the Pays are occupied with duelling correspondence, on account of N. Grand guillot. Besides the affair between that journal and the Temps, a duel is on the tapis between the Pays and the Gazette de France. The Pays has sent a challenge, which stands over for the present on account of pressing engagements of seconds. The Pope has written a letter to Cardinal Bonald, Archbishop of Lyons, thanking him for the sum of 12,0001., which the importunity of the priests has succeeded in wringing from that dig tressed city for the "succour of our indigence"— that is his Holiness's expression. He mentions the extraordinary straits of the Lyons workmen at the present moment as a consideration which 'enhances the value of the gift, but the idea of refusing it on that ground, or even of deprecating further subscriptions, does not occur to him. The Bourse, after opening with firmness, became depressed in the afternoon. There are various vague rumours, but I have heard nothing spicifie to account for the fall which took place, except that the Bank of England is expected to raise it discount to-morrow. The Rente fell 20c. for cash and 15c. for account, closing at 70fr. 50c., and 70fr. 65c. ; Mobilier fell Bfr. 75c., and the Italian Loan, 55c. The Orleans, Lyons, and Southern railways fell 7fr. 50c. each ; Northern, 3fr. 75c. ; and Eastern, lfr. 250. Western remains un changed. Caisse Mir* though in considerable demand, yielded to the general current, and fell 10fr., closing at IG2fr. 50c. K Mires publishes a flaming advertisement, which occupies two column's in all the evening papers, setting forth that he wishes to borrow 200 millions of francs on account of " a state," which he does not name, and promising immense profits to subscribers. I have no doubt that money will be thrown at his head, so great is the prestige of his name, after his victory over his legal perse cutors. THE VISIT OF THE PRINCE OF WALES TO CONSTANTINOPLE. The Levant Herald of the 7th says :—" Thin evening the Tail ateam•frigate will proceed to the Dar danelles to await the Prince of Wales, and convey, or at least accompany, him to Constantinople. In view of the possibility of him royal highness choosing to tranship into her from the Osborne for the voyage up, the frigate will be spe cially furnished and stored for the °merlon, taking with her a numerous and choice staff of cooks and personal at tendants. Mustaphs, Puha, the president of the:Admiralty Council, and who speaks English fluently, will be the bearer of the Sultan's welcome to the royal tourist on the examine. Sir Henry Bulwer will also take passage in the Tail to meet the Prince, but will probably return to the capital a day in advance of his royal highness. Here, in 'the capital, the Palace of Emizghan has been prepared by the Sultan's orders, and will be offered to the Prince for the lodgment of himself and suite. The incognito of his royal highness will, however, preclude the acceptance of this hospitality ; and he will, as we have already announced, be the guest of the ambassador during his visit. He is still expected to reach the Bosphorus about the 10th or 11th inst., letters from Syria by the last mail announcing his snivel st Damascus on the 28th Wk." The Malta Tinto of the Bth says :—" We hear that his Royal Highness the Prince of Wale left Damascus on the lit inst. for Bealbec, ►nd was expected at Beyrout on the Bth inst. It appears to be not yet decided if the Prince will visit Malta this year."

The Countess of Craven gave her first ball this meson last night, at her residence in Charles-street, Berkeley-square. A Dublin correspondent writes :—" I under stand that conservative members have been questioned by some of their influential constituents as to their agreement with Mr. Disraeli in his views on the Italian question, and warned that if they do not repudiate his uncertain proton tantism they may miss the rapport of their best friends at the next election."

Nothing further has been received from New Or leans, except the correspondence between the Fele int commander and the Mayor of New Orleans,con cerning the surrender of the city. The Senate has confirmed the appointment of Charles Lathrop as Collector of the Port of New Orleans. This appointment of a collector leads to the belief that there may be some intention on the part of the Federal Government to open the port at an early date.
