TELEGRAPHIC INTELLIGENCE. (2X1171117/1101WIL) THE WAR IN GERMANY. PROLONGATION OF THE ARMISTICE. PRUSSIAN HEADQUARTERS, NICHOLSBURG, JULY 2& The preliminaries of peace were signed to-day, and an armistice was agreed upon. Bohemia and Moravia are to remain in the occupation of the Prussians. Notice must be given prior to any resumption of hostilities by either power. VIENNA, JULY T. The Abendpost (evening edition of the official Wiener Zeitung) says :—" The truce has been pro longed to the 2nd of August, and a four weeks' armistice, commencing from that date, has been concluded. Count Karolyi has arrived here with the preliminaries of peace agreed upon by him and Count Bismarck, for ratification by the Emperor of Austria." BERLIN, Juct 27. - The Sadkradts Corrupt:ma.= of to-day says : " Peace will probably be concluded very shortly. The future position of those Princes who have been forced by recent events to quit their dominions must be reserved for special arrangement between them and the Bing of Prussia, and for the appro val of a German Parliament, as the countries occu pied by the Prussians cannot all be treated alike. The mediatory efforts of the Grand Duke of Baden in relation to Southern Germany will probably meet with a speedy and favourable result." ENGAGEMENT BETWEEN THE PRUSSIANS AND BAVARIANS. (orrictm..) MUNICH, JULY 26, Hvitruto. An engagement has taken place with. the Prus sians near Wurzburg, which resulted unfavourably for the Bavarians, who suffered serious losses, especially in officers. The Bavarian headquarters are to-day at Roten dort ASCHAFFENBURG, Jct.: 27. On the 25th inst. an engagement took place near Geracheim, between the Goben Division and the Bth Federal Army Corps, in which the Prus sians were victorious. The Beyer Division was also victorious over the Bavarians near Helmstedt. The Beyer and Flies Divisions repulsed the Bava rians near Rombrunn. The Prussian army is three quarters of a mile west of Wiirzburg. WURZBiJRG, JULY 27. Yesterday and to-day conflicts took place between the Prussians and Bavarians at Dertingen and Helmstedt on the road to Wurzburg, and other encounters at Rossbrunn and Waldbuttelbaum between the rivers Tauber and Kain. The Bava rians sustained heavy losses. The Bavarian head quarters are now at Itottendorff, a quarter of a mile south of Wurzburg. THE PRtISSUN CHAMBERS. BERLIN, JULY 27. The following royal order has been promulgated here to-day :—" Whereas I am desirous of open ing the Diet in person, and shall possibly be able to do so next week, I hereby postpone the opening which had been fixed for the 30th inst., reserving to myself to determine the precise date on which the Chambers shall meet. (Signed) " WILHELM. " Nikolsburg, 27th July." ADDRESS TO THE KING OF PRUSSIA. BERLIN, JULY 27. An address of the inhabitants of Norden, East Friesland, to the King of Prussia has arrived hero for transmission to his Majesty. The address ex presses the wish for the union of the whole of Hanover with Prussia. PRUSSIA AND HOLSTEIN. ALTONA, Jett 27. An address to the King of Prussia, demanding the incorporation of Holstein with the Prussian monarchy, has been drawn up by the Burgomaster of Thaden, and is circulating among the inhabi tants for signature. THE PRUSSIAN OCCUPATION OF FRANKFORT. BERLIN, Jri.7 27. The semi-official Nurddeutsche Allgenteint Zeitung of to-day says :—" To form a correct judgment in the affair of the Frankfort contribution, which is everywhere interpreted in a manner most invidious to Prussia, it must be borne in mind that Frank fort has a revenue of three million florins, with a yearly surplus of 500,000 florins, and that conse quently the town could without difficulty raise the amount of the contribution by means of a loan. That Frankfort should be unwilling to contribute to the enormous burden borne by the Prussian people for the cause of Germany can only be explained by the constant agi tation kept up in that town against Prussia. It is officially stated that Senators Fell ' ner and Miller had consented that the question of paying the contribution should be speedily settled in a satisfactory manner if the Senate and council of burghers were allowed to deliberate on the matter. The Senate was almost unanimously in favour of procuring the amount required, while the burghers urged in opposition to that course that the right of agreeing to pay the contribution did not belong to it or to the Senate, Prussia having dissolved the State bodies of Frankfort. The action of the assembly was thereupon made the pretext for street demonstrations against Prussia." MONETARY UNION BETWEEN FRANCE, &MOWN, ITALT, AND SWITTERLLND.—TheMoniteur of yesterday pub lishes an imperial decree, promulgatingthe terms of a mone tary union concluded on the 23rd December,lB6s, between France, Belgium, Italy, and Switzerland. The convention is to remain in force until January 1, 1880 ; and if no notice to terminate it be given a year previously, it will be renewed for fifteen years, and so on every succeeding fifteen years. The object of the union, u stated in the preamble, is to establish more complete harmony between the monetary legislation of the countries forming such union, and thus to remedy the inconvenience resulting from the differences between their currency. The coinage of the four contracting powers will be accepted at the public treasury of each of those powers, subject to ocedi lions respecting the amount issued, which are specified in I the convention. Jsusres.--Owing to the business of supply having been corialudedon Thursday, Mr. Gilpin was enable to bring in last night the motion of which he had given notice. He has accordingly given notice far Taesday next. BOARD OF TRADI, WHITEHALL, JULY 26. —The Bight Honourable the Lords of the Cormuittee of Privy Council for Trade have received from the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs a copy of a notice Mooed by the Prussian government, to the effect that all goods liable to duty, even when destined for dates of Southern Germany at war with Pram* are allowed to pass without duty being levied upon them at the Prussian frilutiar.—Gassas. THE PRITSSIANS IN FRANKFORT. (rnom A CORRESPOIMINT.) FRANKFORT, dtria 25. • Reporta were current on the 23rd that the Senate, the Connell, and the Income Tax Commissioners had refused to pay the additional contribution of 26 =Rhona of florins. Late in the evening it was said that if the money was not paid the town would be given up to pillage, but though this caused a sleepless night to many it was supposed to be an idle threat. Next day the soldiers reported that they were to parade at 5 o'clock in heavy marching order, as they were not to return to the same quarters, but were to be billeted on the senators and those authorities who had refused to pay the 25 millions. I believed this to be one of the numerous canards which infest this town, but seeing the 4-pound battery getting all ready for action and nurchin,g away to take up a position on the Muhlbeig, a height above Sachsenhausen, on the other side of the river, and commanding the town, it became clear that something was to occur. The bat sedens of the Landwehr were on parade, and I took the opportunity of examining them. They are a i very fine body of men, all, in the prime of life, well clothed, and armed with the needle guns, and with the bayonet in sheaths by their sides. They appeared quiet, respectable, and thought- ful soldiers. The battalion was divided into parties of 87, 37, and 27 men, and each party was furnished with a billet. The parties of 87 were to be quartered in the houses of the senators, of S 7 in those of the commissioners, and of 27 with the Town Council. I really could not believe what I heard, so I followed the men until I saw the house of a senator, a commissioner, and a councillor furnished with his punishment quota. Besides a bed each soldier has food. Most of the dwelling-houses are in flats, far too small to con tain such numbers, and the inconvenience must be also great for the soldiers. No sooner were the men thus billeted than a notice was published to the inhabitants to let them know that this was the first instalment to those who refused to give to the King of Prussia the money he demanded. This billeting system is a very harsh measure, but in this case it is a sort of diamond cut diamond. In 1848-49, at the request of the Senate and authorities of Frankfort,. a body of Austrians, Prussians, and Bavarians took up their quarters here. As they remained a long time, the authori ties thought the best way to get quit of them was to let their barracks fall out of repair, and thus force them to leave. I Ina asked by a Prussian officer to see their barracks, and I have no health , tion in saying that if swine had been put into such places the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to animals would have interfered. It has been reported to me on the beet authority that M. Rothschild and four citizens of Frankfort are going to have an interview with the King of Prussia at the seat of war. To-morrow it is proposed that ►t the funeral of the burgomaster,who is said to have oommitted suicide, the bulk of the citizens with their wires shall attend. As the oommandant has ordered that no assemblies of people are to take place I siseptct he will interfere. The people look in better spirits, and seem determined to pay no more money. No one here seems to know anything of the Federal army. Itarbal unit Military. PORTSMOUTH, JOLT 27. The Devastation, 6, paddle sloop, Commander W. K.

PNEUMATIC DESPATCH COMPANY.—The report of the directors of this company states that previous to the meeting in January last, the directors reported that the delay in the carrying out of the Holborn viaduct would ' render it necessary for the tube to be carried under the existing streets and over the Fleet sewers, which it was hoped would have been avoided by the construction of the viaduct ; and pending the consideration and final settle. went of these points, the directors had determined to test the oust and facility of working by a series of carefully recorded experiments which were then in progress. Those experih.ents having now been fully carried out, the directorsare perfectly satisfied with the results, from which it appear. that 120 tone of goods can be passed throngh the tube per hour, at the rate of eighteen miles an hour, at the cost of under Id. a ton per mile. The directors have also ascertained from stetistieal information furnished them by the directors of the London and North Western Railway Company, that the line of tube, when completed, will return a large per tentage on the capital expended on its construction. After such satisfactory results, the directors made overtures to the London and North Western Railway Company is assist them in com pleting the line, whisk overtures were most favourably received, and the directors are now waiting foe an answer , from Easton.

VALENTIA, JULY V. Shore end landed and splice completed at 8.43. Messages of oongratuition passing rapidly be tween Ireland and Newfoundland. Insulation and continuity perfect. Speed much increased since surplus cable has been cut off. VALENTLi, JOLT _2B. Following telegram received from Newfoundland —Gooch to Glass :—" Our shore end has just been laid, and a most perfect cable, under God's blessing, completes telegraphic communication between England and the continent of America. I cannot find words to express my deep sense of the untiring zeal and the earnest and cheerful manner in which everyone on board, from the highest to the lowest, has performed the anxious and arduous duties they, in their several de partments, have had to perform. Their untiring energy and watchful care night and day for the period of two weeks required to complete this work can only be fully understood and appreciated by one who, like myself, has seen it. All have faithfully-done their duty, and glory in their success, and join with me in hearty con gratulations to our friends in England who have in various ways laboured in carrying out this great work." The Houses of Parliament and the leading Lon don clubs were apprised of the successful landing of the Atlantic cable at dinnertime last evening. The telegraphic qfiche reporting the proceedings in Parliament, and by means of which members are kept informed every quarter of an hour as to what is actually taking place in the house , contained this postscript : The Atlantic cable is landed ; all going well." The intelligence rapidly spread, and before ten o'clock it was known all over the town that the success of the expedition is a substantial and incontrovertible fact. In spite of special correspondence, frequent comment, and elaborate explanations, the public have been slow to believe in the approach ing fulfilment of the promises and prognoetications of the last ten years. Hence, the news of last evening occasioned almost as m uch excitement and surprise as if it were not the rational sequence to whet was already known. That the cable was going on well, and that the Great Eastern was performing her allotted task successfully had been accepted readily enough ; but that com munication was actually established, and that to dais American news might be expected in a few hours, seemed to strike all hearers as a startling and unexpectednovelty. Indeed,solittleare they different agencies connected with the cable-laying expedition of this year understood that it may be useful to briefly recapitulate information we have already laid before the public. The Atlantic cable, about to be thrown open to the public, is manufactured by the Telegraph Construction Company, and owned by the Anglo-American Company. It may, perhaps, save some confusion of ideas if we again state that the original Atlantic Telegraph Com pany hags comparatively remote interest in the new cable, and that the words, "guaranteed 8 per cent." must not be taken too lite rally. The real Atlantic Telegraph preference shares are the 101. ones of the Anglo-American Company, and the holders of these are guaranteed more than 20 per cent. before the Atlantic Telegraph shareholders receive a penny. if it should happen that the first year's earnings ef the cable do not exceed 125,000/.—an improbable con tingency—the whole of that sum will be divided among the holders of Anglo-American stock. The '3 -up capital of the Anglo-American Company is 11,0001. A further sum of 100,0001. is to be handed over to the Construction Company when the line is opened ; and for this 600,0001., the first 125,000/. earned each year by electrical com munication between Europe and the United States is secured by charter to the shareholders of tho Anglo-American Company. In other words, the latter's shares are Atlantic Telegraph preference ones with a guarantee of 20 per cent. Another point upon which frequent questions are asked is the rate at which messages will be con veyed between England and America. After carefully estimating the probable demand, it has been settled to fix the tariff at 11. per word, and to send no messages of less than 20 words each. This high rate has been decided on in the hope of keeping the company's business within practicable limits, and from the number of applications already made the amount of this would not nom to be over estimated. As communication is said to be as rapid on a long submarine wire as on an over land electric line, the material reward of the pro moters of the Anglo-American Company bids fair to equal the honour and repute which will be cheerfully awarded them. The battle with difficul ties has been as long and gallant as the victory appears to be certain and assured, and all England will rejoice at the golden prize proving substantial and increasing. The latest testa show the broken cable of 1865 to be even more electrically perfect than when laid—a sufficient testimony to the durability of these long submarine lines. Conversations and messages were carried on all through yesterday, until word was sent to cease signalling, as they were about to make the splice with the shore end of Trinity Bay. This was effected soon after dusk with us. Mr. Latimer Clark then commenced testing the cable—these tests, it was expected, would occupy all night. On Monday, at the latest, it is expected that the wire will be opened to the public, and the messages sent exactly in the order of priority in which they are received. Applications for messages are already pouring in. On Tuesday Mr. Glass and the Knight of Kerry intend to entertain about 1,000 of the peasantry at a rural fete in honour of the occasion. The Railway News of to-day says : Although completed to Trinity Bay, Newfound- land, there is not at present, we believe, com plete communication with any portion of the telegraphic system en the American continent, so that New York and London are not really yet within speak• distance. There is a link of about 70 miles required to complete the New York and Newfoundland telegraph, and of this a abort length will consist of submarine cable, which w il l have to he scram the Northumberland Straits. This short length of a few miles has been taken out by the Great Eastern, and will, no doubt, be laid in the course of a few days. Some few miles on either side of the straits have to be put in order, if indeed that has not already been done, in anticipation of the success of the greater work. Until the telegraph connexion is com plete menages for the American continent will have to be conveyed about 70 miles by steamer. 0,066 4,290 The Rev. Charles Edward Shirley Woolmer, M.

Yesterday the adjourned meeting of shareholders in this bank was held at the Bull Hotel. Then was • large attendance. The report of the cu 'ttee appointed to confer with the directors was read. It stated that at a meeting of the committee yesterday, at which the whole of the committee and four of the directors were present, the following resolutions were adopted :-1. That the shareholders and creditors be recommended to agree to re-open the bank, in preference to an official or voluntary liquidation under the Court of Chancery. 2. That the depositors and creditors be recommended to accept the payment of their balances by four instalments, ss. in the pound in three months, ss. in nine months, se. in fifteen months, and ss. in two years, with interest at 5 per oent. per annum. 3. That the 'band:eiders of the bank be recommended to pay 100/. per share, via., 501., the balance of the subscribed capital, in cash within two months, and 501. in promissory notes drawn at eight mesas. • large proportion of the shareholders have already given their assent to the above arrangement. The balance-sheet, prepared by Messrs. Chadwick, Adam son, and CO., showed the total liabilities to be 1,195,5401. 15s. 3d. ; the smote were 1,114,6401. 2a. 10d.; the de fi ciency being 90,8941. 15e. sd. Next to re-establishing the sol vency of the bank, the important task will be to pro- vide for its improved future management, and as soon as practicable for au amended constitution. These points have already received the anxious attention of the com mittee, who would, however, prefer to have associated with them some gentlemen representing the creditors, so that their joint recommendations may be embodied in a special report to a future meeting. In the course which had been adopted the committee have availed themselves of the services and experience of Mr. David Chadwick, of Manchester, by whose assist ance and the co-operation of all who are sincerely inte rested in the nacos of the bank and the oaasequent prosperity of the town, the committee have every hope of reostablishing the bank on a sound basis, and provi ding against the occurrence of such disasters as the pre sent. Should the course recommended by the committee receive the unction of the shareholders and the credi tors, the petition filed in the Court of Chancery ' for the winding-up of the bank will be ad ' yourned, and the necessary steps for the resump- I lion of the business of the bank will be proceeded with.
