TITHE REDEMPTION TEl7BT.—The annual meet ing of this institution was held yesterday, at their offices, 26, Parliament-street, Westminster, under the presidency of Lord J. Manners, M.P. The report stated that the number of cases of restoration of tithe which had come before them since their last report was very numerous, and that in several the board had rendered or rro e = tance to a greater amount than in previous years. The actual income received during the year from sub scription?' donations, and o ff ertories had amounted to 1621. 12s. 3d., and in addition to that the sum of 131.9 e. 2d. had been received as interest on investments. Seven grants, varying in amount from 101. to 100/., had been either made or promised in various parts of the country towards csn ying out the objects of the society. The Ecclesiastical Commissioners had promised 2501. sea benefuctiontowarda the redemption of tithe amounting to 251. per annum, on condition of a like sum of 2501., required to complete the purchase, being made up from other sources. The board last year offered 761. as a grant in aid, and had extended the time for claiming such assistance to November next, in the hope that the benefaction of the Ecclesiastical Com mission might be rendered available. The formation of branch societies of the trust was advocated. The noble chairman moved the adoption of the report, which was seconded by Mr. H. Gwyn, M.P., andcamed unanimously, ar.d the formal business of the meeting having been trans acted, the proceedings terminated.

THE CONSPIRACY TO INTERRUPT ME Litrffit- POOL MEETINCIB.—On Wednesday evening last, as already known, Mr. John Bright, M.P., addressed a large mom' e 2 of natives of the principality, mumbled at the Ro Amphitheatre, Liverpool, under the auspices of the W Reform Association. On Tuesday the promoters were thrown into a state of great excitement and alarm by the discovery that a very considerable number of ad= talon r anxx tickets had been fo and put into circulation. This was imputed to the of the town, a numerous body, who, it was had adopted this sus picious method of gaining access to the meeting for the purpose of creating a disturbance. not this discovery been made, it seems more than pro bable that a serious row would have taken place. Yester day Mr. Gully, barrister, applied to the stipendiary magis trate, on behalf of certain members of the Welsh Reform At sociation, fur summonses against the printers of the ticket in question, and the persons by whose order they wire executed. The offence charged was that of con spring to create a breach of the peace, or a riot. The learned counsel said it was well known that the parties who sought to gain admission to the meeting by such tickets were not likely to agree with the views of Mr. John Bright or his friends. The magistrate at once granted the summonses. ADMIRALTY, JUNE 10.—APTOLNTMErrs.—Lieu tenants Fred. W. B. H. IL Heron, to the Frederick William; Armand T. Powiett, to the Royal George; and Henry J.

The eisudier* of Milks.

In the military diet with Sergeant Sulpizio, in the first act, "Apparel alb loco," and the following a Rataplan," the combination of grass and =koala of than*, with brilliant and delicate vocal execution, was in the highest degree admirable. The well known air, "Ciaic un to dice" was given with sash exqui site point and refinement, snob fleincy and prised execu tion in the Amid introdnesd oedema, as at meth sill forth an encore, whithers replied to by a repetition of the second verse. Equally charming was the very apposite expression of sentiment is the pathstie sir, **Omens Faith," which was mg with deep and genuine feeling.

TEE RECENT PANIC IN THE CORN TRADE. There is no sunshine without shadow. The gloriously fine weather with which we have been favoured during the last few weeks, hastening the growth of the crops, and enabling myriads of our artisan population to more completely enjoy their great summer holiday, has been reductive of con sternation and dismay in Mark-lane, and has filled many minds with gloom and apprehension. During the past three weeks the British corn trade has ex perienced severalmiolcat changes, almost partaking of the character of a revolution, occasioned by the irresistible fear of s corning extensive fall in prior*. In the import trade there has also been a heavy panic, the like of which has not been experienced for yews in that important branch of commerce. The first day of the present month proved a kind of Black Monday to those whose business it is to buy and sell *ere on • large scale. Prices were merely nominal, and business Game to a complete standstill. On that ominous day the actual price of several kinds of wheat suddenly declined from 14s, to 16s. per quarter. The effect was astounding. The corn markets throughout the country instantaneously became seriously agitated, and everywhere dealers were anxious to sell out at almost any price, but the buyers remained dis trustfully aloof. Abroad the startling news was quickly telegraphed to every wheat-exporting port, to every leading city and town, thereby producing corresponding excitement and depression of prizes, besides checking the further export of grain to this country. For a time, enterprise became com pletely paralyzed, and neither buyers nor sellers to know what to do. As the true state of appearaii became known, the panic gradually abated, and prime began to resume their old position. The panic, which was as unexpected as it was sud den, originated wholly in exaggerated anticipa tions of a full and early harvest, which led to a hastily adopted idea that a heavy andabnost ruinous decline in prizes would speedily take place. But, although cheap bread is one of the greatest con ceivable national blessings, there exists too much reason for fearing that, even were the coming bar east to be one of the most productive ever known to us, the high rate of prices which hes ruled during the last two years will not, for some months at least, be materially altered. The real effect of an abundant harvest will probably be to prevent further rises in price rather than to bring about any marked decline. It must be remembered that a succession of deficient harvests in Europe has tended to empty the greet continental granaries, to &rai ned' the stocks held by dealers, end to raise everywhere the price of wheat to a point which reminds us of the old monopolist times, be fore the doctrines of free trade had achieved their majestic triumphs. Daring the week ending May 30, 1864, the average price of wheat in this coun try was 395. 6d. In 1866 it bad limn to 418.11 d.; in 1866 it was 475. ed. ; in 1867 it rose yet fur ther to 665. 6d. ; and during the corresponding week this year it was 72a. 3d. Had the old corn laws remained unrepealed, bread would have been absolutely at a famine price, and the ooun tsy filled with suffering and discontent. As it is, the supplies from abroad have hitherto prevented wheat being so dear as it must otherwise have be come. Still there is little reason for hoping that theprice of wheat will exhibit much of a downward tendency this year. Such an assertion may be unpalatable to many, bet it is better to oompre heid the reel nature of oar positiose—however discouraging and uncomfortable it may appear — as we shall then be enabled to decide with far more certainty what course we ought really to pursue. Granted that the harvest of 1868 proves unusually good, that it is heavy in the ear, and is safely stacked ; still, a very considerable propor tion of it will be required to replenish our now almostexhausted granaries, andtomake secure pro vision against the possibility of a bad harvest in 1889. It is the same abroad. On the continent the wheat accumulations of the last two or three years have well nigh disappeared, and will have to be replaced by decks procured during the Rre sent year. Consequently, should the coming harvest prove ever so abundant, it is not likely to produce any material or continued de cline in price. But are our harvest prospecti so very good? Are they so very encouraging ? Seldom has the wheat-plant been In ear so early as during the present season. It is thirty-four years since we have had a corresponding forward de velopment of our wheat crops, and should no un favourable circumstances , intervene we may look for the commencement of harvest operation ln our southern districts about the second week in July, an unusually early period. So far matters are promising, but from abroad we have less hopeful accounts. In Prance complaints are being made that the growing crops are being damaged by drought and excessive heat. In the south of Italy a contrary cause has been at work, the development of harvest operations having been re tarded by excessive rain ; while in Hungary, the Danubian Principalities, and the south of Russia, complaints, similar to those uttered by the French wheat-growers, are continually being heard. In Germany, the rye crop, which furnishes the staple food of the people, has been unfavourably reported of in several placce—frost, rain, drought, hail, and thunderstorms having in succession tended to render it doubtful whether the actual yield will reach the level of previous years. In the presenoe 'though during the last four or five weeks symp toms of a slight fall in prices have been pe tible, the quantity of grain sent to marketharerr minished week by week. Now, it is contrary to all precedent, to all rule, for the farmer to sell his stock when prices rise, or to hold Aback when they are falling. Well, here: neither an excessive rise, nor the probabilities of a fall, have in any degree influenced the action of the farmers, and for the best possible reason, that they have no consi derable stocks to dispose of. It is the same with the continental and American grain producers. In fact, the same causes appear to be at work all over the world. A competent and reliable authority in such matters has very sensibly pointed out that the limited de liveries of the farmers during the last few weeks have afforded conclusive evidence that the stooks pout used by them are lighter than they have been for many years past. It certainly is most unrea sonable, if not utterly absurd, to imagine that our wheat-growers would prove so shortsighted, so foofieh, so blind to their own interesta, as to hold bat. k indefinitely large stocks which they could readily convert into money at a considerable ply fit, when by so holding back they incurred the almost certainty of heavy loss. There cannot be the least doubt that the quantity of grain ac tually existing in this country and on the conti nent is extremely limited. The harvest of 1868 will be required to repair the deficiencies of .the harvest' of 1868 and 1867. This alone ought to show that low prices are not yet to be thought of. Last year we imported 9,031,364 quarters of wheat and flour, the whole of which was consumed as fast as it arrived. At least an equal quantity will be required also this year, but it will be procurable only on condition of paying ain ice higher than that given on the continent. The quantity of wheat and flour imported by us during the first five months of the present year war 3,442,000 quarters, leaving a Wane() duo fur the remaining seven months of 5,393,000 quarters. The chock of imports ooeaai.iasd by the late panic will . probably delay for some weeks any marked diminution of the quan tity due to us, but the coming rise in price MDLLE. RBEIKA LIE'S XATINEE.
