The reputation of Marseilles us the first maritime ci'y of France is well known ; sewn,' only to Paris in population and wealth, its position and ropabilities giro It the command of French commerce in the Mediterranean. . . . • Within the lea Dopier Marseilles tow been placed to direct railway comnittnleation with Parts and all parts of France : magnificent docks and warehouse. have been constructed, but great and rapist as these new works have been, they are stia far behind the requlremehts of its veer-Met:miming trade. The old ynarters et the town are being demolished to make room for handsome .treets and public buildings. The population thus displaced are driven to suburbs, niiire especially towards the south, where the lands of the Company are situate, aad where a lite valley stretches from the town to the ileiliterrancan, with a view of the sea, and open to the retie-Ablaut breezes, winch during theaummer afford the only relief from the miens' heat of the city. The enormous value of ground to the town may be estimated by the fact, that for any intension, rocks 00 feet high have to be cleared away to glee sites for banding: it will be readily nailer stood that such a locality ts no longer suited for the erection of ordinary ilwelltnp, or tsetse:Ma and chemical works, which latter, for sanitary reasons, will 800111 be driven from the city. The proposed railway, after leaving the port and towu of 300000 inhabitants, will pass through the southern suburb, which contains a population of bO,OOO, and follow the valley to the sea, at the "Ilactrague de Montredon:" from thence It will be continued for throe miles along the coast to Podestat, affording sites for the erection of factories. with access to the sea, and direct Tulle ay communication with the town and port, and with the Paris, Lyons, and ilediterranean lines, by a junction with the proposed new branch of the latter to the " Place castellane." There are at the present time see factories an the town, emi ploying nearly 10,000 workmen. and the umber of factories would rapidly increase, were it fait for the heavy Charge. which they are subjected from the Increasing valve of the ground occupied, and the want of direct railway conneston with the port, and with the Paris, Lyons, and Mediterranean lines. lie proprietors of these establishment. will gladly avail themselves of the opportunity of disposing of thetr present alms to great advantage, and removing to a locality combining the facilities of s a and railway communitatOn, with perfect freedom from all the die:hat:les of their prew'ut position, and whet,- land can be obtain. -I from the company at a tenth part of the price Dow paid for building ground In the town. In order to form an opinion of the pecnntary results of the prop ised operations of the Company, It will be desirable to con sider septrat eta: the income to 1.• derived from the railway, snit the profit to be realised by the sale of the land of the Company. First, with reference to the railway it must lie observed. that the existing Itte.s are connected with the new port "Joliette" and the Do. kg. lint that the .do port, which is Si acres in extent, Is entirely w 'Mont railway communication or docks, not,, ore standing whleb the oftleial statistics of the government allow that der ng the last year for o tech they are published, 1683, the return. for the Old Pert" were as to lows: Teasels.

But in addition to this the new port "Joliette" received and sent oil 1,159,0.14 teas of merchandise In 1883 by 5,3;3 steamers, on account of the faelliters afforded by the r 'Brays and dock.. It is evident from these returaa that a railway to the old pert must wore a very large ammed of goods Willie. and from the population of the suburban district through which the Use will pass, and the number of factorial, see, already es.ablaheel in that locality, It is calculated that the railway will produce au home date profit revenue equal to 15 per cent. on the outlay, which income will be rapidly inereued by the erection of holl3d, anal factnriks along the line. There will be seven intermediate stations between Marseilles and voileetat, one of which will be for the race course " and the public gardens," and chateau Borelly." Tie Intensity have contract el for the execution of the works of the railway from the "Place Castellani," to "Porlestat,” et the price of £1i5,040. Secontby, with reference to the profit to be reallsei by the sale of the laud of the Company, it may be etatod that all pre vious speculations In land at Marseilles hare bean summed. The Company have contracted for the purchase of about. 1,200,000 square metrie of laud (about 300 English acme), situate on both sides of the proposed railway, between the town and the •• Madrague de Montrodon ;" 140.000 metres of which will lea required Int the construction of the line and eta [lens, leaving 1,e110,000 metres to be sold for the erection of Oat-class residences. It has been estimated by competent judges of the value of bulldiug sites la the neighbouthood of Ilerselliee, that on the complecon of the railway the whole of tide lend will be readily sold at the price of at least 24 francs per metre, at which rate It will produce 21,e00,000 francs. or eett,ooo. The Company have also contracted for the purchase of a very lame tract of ground beyond the •• Matinee° le Montredon," throe* which the railway will pee to Pothistat ; I,6uteuoo metres (about 33 acres) of this lend, adjoining both sea and rail way. will be at once available as (rites for factories and works of all kind& Esti eating the selling price of this land at 10 francs per metre, a sum soleciently low to Induce the manufacturers to establish their worse rapidly in the locality, it will produce a stun of le,too,oeo franca, or £OOO.OOO. The eventris cosh cost to the Company of the land ahc.ve re ferred to u only 11i francs per metre, tael adios the hones already built thereon, and including also upwards of 10,000,001 metres of land (about 2,500 acme) on the molt line for three milts be yond the proposed terminus as Podestet, which will thus be acquired by tile Company free of cost, and which will be male available as some future time by an exteudon of the railway end the formal km of roads. An simple supply of water, which !a inlispeetable at Marseille*, frith for houses and land, rail be obtained from the existing works, which have cost the inuntelpahty more than 00,000,005 of francs. The additional capital required for the payment of land will be raised in debentures, to be repaid out of the produce of the laud sales, The practical bearing of the lend qaestien is as follow, Assenting the sale of the land at the low prices named, the prattle arising therefrom will not only repay the whole cost of the railway. but lu sedition there will remit' a very large surplus for I.llVItllOll. as bonus amouvit the shareholders. The railway coact. awn from the French government Is for the term of VD years. The lands of the Company will be freeholds in perpetuity. tumid the smell portion occupied by the railway. which must airtusarily be surrendered with the line at the expiration of the concession. 5,090 of the shares have been sabscrieed for in France, and will .be with £8 per share paid up thereon ; 3,000 shares will be reserved for issue as fully paid-rap shares leaving 10.000 ordinary shares for lame t. the public. 20,000 Thu articles of association, and also the contract, concession, sod plans, may be seen at the out ci of the solicitors, Ileum.

Ships arriving at other porta of the kingdom from Ancona will be subjected to a quarantine of seven Cap.

BERLIN, JULY 2G. The 3 , mi-official Prorinziat Correspondenz of to day publishes au article on the ministerial council held last week at Ratisbon under the presidency of the King of Prussia, in which it says :—" The recent negotiations with Austria have afforded no basis for an ultimate understanding being arrived at on the question of the Duchies. In the mean time affsirs there have developed in a way incompatible with the undoubted sovereign rights of Prussia and Austria, and with the existing laws of the Duchies. This state of things has been caused by the passive atti tude assumed by the government of the Duchies, in view of the conduct of the Dukeof Augustan burg and his party. Prussia thinks it necessary that the normal and legal position of affairs should be re-established before any further discussion of the future solution of the question be entered upon. We have reason to believe that the means to obtain this object have been agreed upon at ltatisbon." THE AESTRIAN REICHSRATH. VIENNA, JULY 26. In to-day's sitting of the Upper House of the Reichsrath the President, Prince Auersperg, in closing the session, said that the house could look back with satisfaction upon the fulfilment of its work. By the debates on the budget they bad etf..cted considerable reductions. Laws had been passed calculated to raise the public credit, which was greatly depressed. _ _ . Railway concessions had been granted, and the completion of the Transylvanian line afforded sub ct for special gratification. In conclusion, the President expressed a confi dent hope that the constitutional rights of the house, and also its devotion to the Emperor, would remain unchanged. THE AUSTRIAN BUDGET.

It is stated that the events which have recently taken place in Cologne have caused considerable agitation throughout Northern Germany. One proof of this was seen in the working men's meet ing held at Berlin on Sunday for the purpose of insisting on the right of public meeting. Another proof is to be found in the fact that the three hostile political parties in CO lUglle, including the Mtramontanes, have, according to the Berlin National Gazette, come to an understanding with the view of acting together in defence of the position taken up by the liberals. It is believed that in other places the S:11:12C course will be adopted. The government, on the other hand, is determined, it is said, to put i down with a strong hand all such demonstrations as those which were to have taken place in Cologne. The Indlpe,danee Beige refers in the following terms to this subject :—" The events at Cologne have caused a pain:al impression throughout Prus aia. The numerous workmen's societies have in their tarn been excited by the elastic sense in which the law upon associations is interpreted by the I government. If the doctrines applied in this mat , ter at Cologne prevail over the text of the laws, no meeting, no association whatever ' would any longer be secure against governmental interference ; all the guarantees of legality and stability, so tweet sary in order that operatives' societies should ex , tend heir beneficial influence among the lower classes, would be threatened with destruction. ' Rivalries and differences of opinion are disappear ing, therefore, before the common danger, and people are rallying round the precious right con tained in the Prussian constitution of the liberty of meeting and association."

Tlie active business of this Conference now sitting ; at Birmingham may be said to have commenced yesterday. At the meeting of the General Chapel Committee, co 1 , Tuesday, Dr. Owner. the President, in the chair, the fol lowing was read in reference to the Building Department : " 237 cues of erection have been sanctioned duce the last Conference, vii..:-95 chapels, at an estimated cost of 118,090/. ; 22 school-houses. at • cost of 17.7204 75 enlargements and alterations, 30,443/. ; 26 organs, at a cost of 3,613/. ; 39 modifications of cases pre viously sanctioned, involving an additional outlay of 14,243/. These amounts make • total of 184,1091. Of the new chapels twenty-four are to be free from debt in twelve months train the time of opening. No debt is to remain on the schoolhouses sanctioned during the year with one exmptioo. The total debt sanctioned on altera tions and enlargements is 5,2741., and all is to be paid off within specified periods. No additional debt is incurred by the introduction of organs. The total amount of tem porary debt on all the cans sanctioned during the year is 29,4741., being over 16 per neat, of the (satire met. This per centage cootrasto favourably with former years. Of this temporary debt, 21,3754 is on new chapels alone, being over 18 per cent. on the entire outlay. From these circuits the estimated income is 4,5101., nearly 3/ per cent on the outlay, and over 18 per cent on the remaining debt. The total amount of aid promised by grants io 47 cane b :—Grants, 1,745/. ; and lobos, to be repaid in a definite term of years without iaterest, 1,9251. It appears that since the establialunent of this food trouts in aid have been given to 114 ones, &emanating to 4,0584 is greets, and in loans to 5,5251. It is urged that the building-aid fund be raised to 10,0091., as already more money has been promised than the fund somata to. —2.

Thn entire mot of all these CAM, regular and irregular, has been 206,32'31. Increase, 72:2151., heiog a larger smou:rt than in any former year by :18,8131. The temporary debt on all these erections is 45,512'.. being over 22 per cent. on the entire outlay. The grants in aid to trustees, which have been paid, amount to 3,5601., viz, 460/. from General Chapel Committee, 3.301. from Watering-places Chapel Fund. and 2.750/. from the Metropolitan-Chapel Build ing Fond. Deducting these emotion, and the temporary debt from tire total outlay, the result shows that no less than 157,257/. have been raised by the contributions of the Methodist people for chapel-building put poses, assisted in many cases by the membara of other denomintiori, who have thus shown a cathciliclty of sentiment and action which the Crunexion gratefully appreciates." As to " surplus income," it was stated that " tram three trusts and local efforts 12,124/. 41. 31. has been paid off dorm; the year. Also 1,434 chapels now contribute 12,542/. Ids. thiL in Inwood of the General Circuit Funds. It thus appeals that 37,4221. of debt iris been paid off during the past year; and since 1854 no less than 546,853!. of debt has been liquidated. The total ascertained outlay io the building and relief departments dining the year is 243 751!.; and of We amount 193,045!. has been actually paid by the Connexion." On the motion of Dr. Hannah, the following resolution was passed:—" That this meeting rejoices to hear thatsanction brie been given to the erection or en largement of a great number of chapels and school-rooms, and the acquisition of other trust property, during the year, upon Condttious which afford ;mod reason to hope that these undertakings will Mlle no embarrassment to trustees or to the Coonexion." It was further resolved, "That, in the opinion of this meeting, the time hos turned when some portion of the annual income of the chapel food should be applied to the enlargement of the erections loan fund, and should thus be permanently used, under the direction of the committee, to relieving the charge which would otherwise be occasion-il by the temporary debt allowed to remain on new amnia." At the general meeting of the Home Minion and Contin gent Fund • report was read, of which the following is an abstract :—" Since 1859, fifteen Home Misdon stations having answered their purpose in raising congregations and churches, have been satisfactorily merged into circuit ar raugeniente. This result is to be desired and expected as following successful labour; and it is encooragiog that several other stations will, this year, be similarly incor porated. In many of the cases now referred to ministers' houses bare been provided ; and in addition to this accom modation to families, the Horne Mission Committee sustain this year no lees • number than thirty-two married ministers ; having also aided by grouts, since 187,8, in furnishiog fifty unnistsrs' houses. The coming year will show an &drams In all these particulars. Theme missions have encouraged or originated the build- Mg of chapels, or have expedited it. Lest year it was re ported that 34 chapels had been so built, costinr 43.0001., and accommodating 14,500 persons. That number is now increased to 41, costing 57,3631., and providing 13,040 sittings. Eighteen chapels are sew beirg built, to bold 9,890 persons, and coating 48,7231., some of them being large and hateloome buildings. Four chapels are be iag enlarged at • cost of 3,000'. The increase of members in circutts to which home missionary ministers have been appointed is highly gratifying. That inc , eass from 1858 to 1864 was 6 ,4( 1 3; this year the increase is 1,389, making a total of 7,352. The annual 11110011/0 of the food has steadily increased. At the conference is 1861, it was about 8,010/. more than in the year 1858. This is a pleasant contrast to the state of our affairs, when this committee not having any dis- Sect ive aggrearve action, but straggling to conserve exist ing circuits, was 15,0001. in debt.. The present improved income, however, is by no moans commensurate with the claims made upon the methodists. nor with their ability to meet those claims ; nor can our share of efforts to evangelise the nation be undertaken or mantained unless the fund shall receive a Inge annual augmentation." In a subse quent part of this report it was stated that, " during nine months, from September Ist, 1864, to June Ist, 1865, 53,402 domiciliary visits have been paid, marry of them to the sick and dying. These give at average of 742 for each minister, and there is evidence that these visits have beta painstaking and effective." The election of the President takes place on Thursday. CONVOCATION OF THE PROVINCE OF CILIUM BURI.—The Archdeacon of London has cited kis clergy to inset on Wednesday pert, to elect two proctors whose usmes shall be submitted to the Bishop of London, to serve in the Lower Home of Coammation for the metro politan diocese.

Mr. Grant, the secretary, read the report, which congratulated the shareholders on the commencement of the business of the company toiler the most favourable auspices. The hotel was opened upon the 12th of Jane last, and the busioess since the open ing had been of the most satisfactory character, taking into cossideratices the unfinished state of a portion of the buildieg. The capital account had reached the &MOOD, of 268,4461. The chairman, in moms' tiro adoption of the report, said the amount of beanies' done daring the 44 days the hotel had been opened had far exceeded the anticipations of the directors, cad this, too, stases's° when London bad been comparatively denuded of that class of society to which they looked for support; but this night in some measure be accounted for from the fact that the hotel was a residential one, and on that they Odell, relied for gnomes. The report was adopted. The retiring directors, Sir James Carmithael and Captain Denoy, were then re elected, as were Mews. Galsworthy sad Wallikee as au ditors.

Howes, curate of Bracknell, recently brought an action for libel against a neighbouring tanner, in which each contradic tory evidence was given that the jury, without giving • verdict, ware discharged. It appears that the scandal to which this action gave ties has not subsided ; and the reverend gentleman will now vacate his curacy, aciordiog to the following correspondence published in the Guardian : "All &iota' Clergy-house, July 8, 1865. "Mar Lord Bishop,—Under a deep sense of my owe re spcneibility in relation to the church, and to the cure of souls entrusted to MO at Bracknell, I now address your lordship. My strong conviction and daterminatim has noon that I should cootinue io my work there, and live down the scandal ; but the peace of the parish, the state of my health, and the future usefulness of my ministry being considered, 1 have, after very anxious consideration with my friends, decided to place myself in your lordship's bootie, believing that you will direct me aright in the course that I ought to take. Your lordship isbeady know* after what deep and mreful deliberation I felt obliged to go before • public tribunal to prove upon oath, in the sight of all men, that the scand a l which had fallen moon me vim wholly untrue, and I still maintain it to be so. After the trial your lordship suggested • ocreamillion, but on farther reflection you considered it would be last not to grant me one. I therefore now entirely place 'Nylon in your lordship's hands, as already stated, and am willies to abide by any derision that ou r lordship may came to in to the matter.

"My dear Mr. Howe,—l would net vainly bath kept you a single day in suspense, but I ally yesterday, received your letter , desiring my judgment, and saying that you would submit; to it ; and yesterday was so entirely fillagl with diocesan work that I could not write. I have deeply con sidered your cue, and I have conenitul with two of my brethren on the bench upon it. I feel the deepest sympathy with you. I believe you to be wholly inno cent of all' that is laid to your charge. I have not the faintest shadow of a doubt of your entire innocence; but I tbiuk that you have incautiously laid yourself open to the gravest anspieioci. I believe that good and honest men amongst your flock believe von to be guilty. Nor do I pee any mode, after the falters of your action, in which it i possible for you to establish your innocence. I ant therefore convinced that you could not possibly carry on your ministry at Braoknell with any rea sonable hope of sitcoms, whilst lam confident that. your return there would at one cause scenes of tumult and even violence, which would aggravate fearfully the existing scandal, subject you and your ministry to insult of every kind, and dishonour in you, and it, the apostolic Commis sion which you bear. I therefore unlnsai'ationly advise you at once to resign that charge. I give the advice with great paie, because I see teat your resignation may be taken as a confe•sioo of guilt, which it iu uo way is ; hot the troth is, that your moue is on every side surrounded with difficulties, end I believe that the fewest attach to theignation. Ido not believe you ev,r could is that place live down the existing suspicions. I believe that in a new sobers your real purity of life would be at oboe appreciated, end that these foul aluminium, when not exasperated by • new conflict, would in time die wholly out. The Bishop of London, to whom I hove communicated the whole ease, is willing at once to receive you into his diocese, and my ad vice is that you at once establish yourself there. My own conviction of the correctness of this course is not • little strengthened by my finding that one of your closest friends agrees with me concerning it.
