CITY NEWS-YESTERDAY. Buenos Ayres Bonds have not been affected in price by the announcement that the Government have commenced to make remittances to London five months before the next half-yearly dividend becomes due. Turkish securities are still greatly prejudiced by the attempted introduction into this market of the new internal Six per Cent. Stock, which is being issued in Constantinople in part redemption of the currency. The proportions assigned to the holders are 40 per cent. in specie (out of the proceeds of the last London Loan), and 69 per cent. in this home stock, which is being privately dealt in here at about 33 per cent. It cannot be quoted in our Stock Exchange, as the rula of that establishment cannot be complied with; and the dividends are payable solely at Constantinople, where the claims on the Treasury, as is well known, are not always discharged in the most punctual manner. The violent fluctuations in the exchange, moreover, have an important bearing on the value of this paper, yet some anaount of it has been placed privately in London, in consideration of the great disparity of price as compared with that of the English issues. The expensive war in Montenegro, it is feared, will yet have an unfavourable effect on Turkish finance. The new Venezuelan Loan was allotted to-day, and general satisfaction was expressed at the equi table end business-like manner in which the dis tribution has been conducted by Messrs. Baring .Brothers and Co. The principle adopted appears 'to have been as nearly as possible that of a pro rata allotment. The great majority of applicants for moderate amounts appear to have received about one-fifth of the stock written for. The scrip will be ready for delivery on the 14th inst. Messrs. Fri:lhling and Geschen have issued an advertisement reminding holders of old Egyptian Government stock that they can apply for allot ments of the new loan until 3 o'clock on the 11th inst. An extraordinary meeting of the Commercial Dock Company is convened for the 22d inst., to empower the directors to raise the funds authorised at the general meeting in June last, and alsd the further sums required ; and to authorise the con 'version into capital of the money borrowed by the company. It appears that of the £750,600 of capital of the Buenos Ayres Great Southern Railway as much as £300,000 is already subscribed for, although the prospectus has only just been issued. A consider able portion is taken by Buenos Ayres bondholders, and the rest by persons of respectability practically acquainted with Buenos Ayres, and with the re sources of the district to be traversed by the rail way. CITY NEWS-THIS DAY. TWELVE O'CLOCK. The Bank of England return, completed to the 6th August, is of a less satisfactory character. The bullion shows a rather large diminution, while 'there is a considerable reduction in the reserve of notes. The other securities, owing to the payments due on the 4th inst., have been lessened to some extent, and there is a large falling off in the pri vate balances. The various items, and the changes they present, are shown in the subjqined table:-- Active Circulation .. • . £22,586,520 Increase 85 Bullion 17,956,"38 ll.ecrease 491,505 Rest • • • • • . 3,350,525 I ncr ease .. .. • • • • 91,976 Public Deposits .• 6,157,358 Increase .. .. 261,518 Oth er Deposits.. .. 15,232,959 Decrease .. • • .. 1,670,109 Seven Day and other Bills .. .. 791,873 Increase .. • • • • • • 50,972 Government Securities .. 10,986,097 Decrease .. • • • • • • 16.582 Other Securities • • .. 1.9,079,200 Decrease 363,171 Notes Unemployed .. • . 9,198.790 Decrease .. 824,205 The Borussia, from New York, has brought about £lO,OOO in specie. The Tagus, for Lisbon, has taken out 280,000 sovereigns. A dividend, at the rate of 1 per cent., will be re commended by the directors of the Great Western Railway. The traffic receipts of the South Austrian and Lombardo Venetian Railway, for the week ending the 29th ult., amounted to £52,093, or £3,905 more than in the corresponding period of last year. During the last few days the dealings in the Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets have been rather less active. Tea at public sale has sold slowly, without, however, any ',change in values. Sugars have slightly given way, particularly medium and low descriptions of British West India, and in the refined market a heavy tone has prevailed. Coffee has remained without material variation, as regards price, but the operations have been very limited. Saltpetre has been dull and rather cheaper, while a slight improvement has been perceptible in the Tallow Market, particularly for forward de livery. At the public sales of colonial wool the attendance of dealers has been large, and except for low and inferior qualities, 1 he prices established at the commencement of the series have been gene - rally well maintained, BRITISH FUNDS—ONR O'CLOCK.

Aug. 7, 1862. GARIBALDI AND 7HE FRENCH PRESS. Several of the Paris journals remark on the agitation ex cited by Gat ibaldi in Italy and on the proclamation of King Victor Emmanuel. The Lebats, after analysing the lan guage of the ex-dictator and of the King, comes to the con clusion that " the conflict between the Italian Ministry and Garibaldi rosy be looked on as near to commence, if it has not already begun ;" the Press° confines itself to simply registering the facts ; the Imps approves of the royal pro clamation, but adds, that " it beholds with regret a consti tutional sovereign intervening in the differences of parties." The Opinion Nationale expatiates at some length on the division which has manifested itself all at once so violently in Italy, but does not come to any positive conclusion, fur ther than to recommend Garibaldi to bear in mind that " there are other populations oppressed in Europe besides those of Rome and Venice," and indicating to him " the redemption of the Christians of the East, as worthy of his serious attention." The Siecle declares that it will not attempt to conceal its feeling of sadness at thR contemplation of the incidents passing in the Italian kingdom, and suggests that the best mode of putting an end to the present agitation is for France to allow the Piedmontese to take possession of ROM : " France," it says, " on whom would fall the greatest share of responsibility in the deplorable events which may be apprehended at the present moment, and Prussia with Russia who have just recognised the kingdom of Italy, could not have considered such recognition as a mere comedy. Those Powers certainly have never intended, in the midst of actual dangers, to subject Italian unity to any new trials after having gone through so many, and that to which she might be submitted at pr,sent would be nothing else'than the most deplorable, the most fatal of civil wars." The moderate journals, however, agree in this one point that Garibaldi, although impetuous and impulsive, loves his country too well to undertake any enter prise that would comprise what has been already achieved or lead to a sanguinary collision between Italians of diffe rent parties. The Paris journals which are opposed to the new order of things in Italy represent a civil war in that country as an inevitable event, the only point admitting of doubt being, they declare, the period at which it should take place, a litte sooner or a little later. The Gazette de France expresses itself in these terms : " Either the proclamation of Victor Emmanuel is se rious, really expressing the royal ideas, or it is only the repetition of those denegations of former times of which Count Cavour was so lavish, and which afterwards the King translated by those words which have remained cele brated—' They were Italians, and I could not restrain them.' In the former hypothesis it can only be the prelude to the accession of M. Mazzini. In the latter, it is a simple ora torical precaution, having solely for object to deceive Europe, and it conceals a concurrence under the appearance of a dissent. With regard to the first hypothesis, the Cabi net of Turin or Europe must not labour under an illusion. In the Southern provinces, if not throughout the whale of Italy, a struggle has been formally established between the Court of Turin and Garibaldi, and there can be no possible doubt as to the success which would attend it. The revo lutionists there, alone, adore the hero of Marsala, but every one is agreed in their abhorrence of the Piedmontese name, and the famous vespers of which Garibaldi cirtantly spoke in his late addresses, would, in the event of a struggle, im mediately sound there, not against France, but against Piedmont and the Piedmontese. On that day, parties now the most opposed to each other would act as one man, for ete++i,els is tuns.- o^=m , son hatred their That is the serious aide of the Si 'nation I The Southern pro vinces of Italy, and perhaps Italy entire, are in a situation precisely similar to that in which France was placed on the eve of 1848. The official world, the world of upstarts or of those who have attained their object, are in complete dissent even in the camp of the revolution with the non official world, with the me i n who have not yet succeeded in their object, but who wish to do so. At the Chamber, M. Ratazzi was applauded even by the Deputies of the Southern provinces, when he spoke of Garibaldi. It was, however, the Chamber and not the emurtry, even the revolutionary country, that applauded." The language of the Union is even more unequivocal in the same sense. It says :—" For our part we persist more than ever in repeating that the crisis, however formidable it may be, was necessitated by the state of things, that nothing could prevent it, and that nothing will stop it. Garibaldi calls for Rome and Venice or death. - Victor Em manel also wishes for Rome and Venice, only he awaits them from diplomacy, from time, and from circumstances, Agreed as to the object, they only differ as to the means. Evidently, according to the new law, logic is on the aid- of Garibaldi. How is it possible to convince him that an ex pedition against the domain of t. Peter or against Venetia is more culpable than the one against Sicily or against Naples ? Has not Venice as much deserved emancipation? , oes not Italy want her Capital ? To reproach with im patience, with imprudence, and with madness, those impatient, those imprudent, and even if you like, those senseless men who have given the half of the Italian Peninsula to the cabinet of Tu-in, is to renew the incon sistency of the Gr cchi : Qais tulerit Gracchos destdittone quo' entes ? It is that which constitutes the inconceivable weakness of the Sardinian Ministry. Its friends are well of this, and they are therefore hesitating as we see them. It is a first chastisement, and it will not be the only one." A Turin correspondent of the Presse writes as follows under date of 3d inst :—" Two years ago I was at Palermo, and freque.itly met Garibaldi, then dictator, and I remem ber that one of his favourite notions was that Sicily ought to be the basis of operations for the revolutionary party. He would often say to the crowd : -' The head of Italy is in the Alps, but her feet are in Sicily, and Sicily must march in the van.' About 700 volunteers, nearly all be longing to Sicily, are concentrated in the woods of Ficuzzi, most of them without arms ; as for Garibaldi, he is at Cur leone, and not at their head ; so that as yet there is no po sitive insurrection against the Government. On my way from Palermo to Girgenti I passed through Corleone and Ficuzzi. The wood at this latter place is not properly a wood, but an extensive jungle, containing a great number of fig trees, diversified with marshes and green glades,form ing in reality an almost impregnable retreat. Yesterday autograph letters from Garibaldi were handed about in Turin, in which he dissuaded his friends from joining him in Sicily. I therefore th nk that this movement is merely a meet ng of young enthusiasts, all Sicilians, who, after a few days of useless agitation, will return to their homes. The altogether local and purely Sicilian chat acter of this assemblage of volunteers, is proved by this passage in the proclamation of Palermo Let those who have been drawn into this movement, return promptly to their families.' The intelligence from Sicily, being quite unex pected, caused extreme surprisl at Turin, and I know for certain that Garibaldi's best friends were absolutely astounded. When the order of the day was proposed, de claring that the Chamber adhered to the noble language of the royal proclamation, M. Ratazzi stated that he accepted it solely as approving of the Ministerial policy, at least so far as concerned present circumstances. It was voted by an immense majority, the extreme Left alone opposing it. I observed that M. Petruccelli della Gattina voted with the Right. I must not omit mentioning that the royal procla mation produced an excellent effect. Being a really wise and courageous act, it seems destined to arrest Garibaldi's advance in the fatal course on which he has entered. As to the phantom of civil war evoked by M. Ferrari, it frightens no one. Who has not heard speak of Garibaldi's horror for fratricidal struggles ? Garibaldi has before yielded, and will again on this occasion, for he has a reli gious horror of Italian blood shed by Italians." 2s. 6d, ROYAL YACHT SQUADRON REGATTA.—COWES, August 7. —lt appears now to. be decid ed that t h ere w i ll Le s q u adron this week, and nt that arta the eundr yeare the auspices i s62t sn memorable in many r e pects, will be marked by a hiatus in the long list of cont ests for aquatic fame which have taken place sinc,,. the establi s h ment o f the Royal Yacht Squadron .

There is a great: gale of W i nd hero to-day from W.S.W., and a strong sea is running i n the Solent, while outside the waves are strong enough t o smother any small craft that may be found there. No yachts are in consequence under weigh, and the whole fleet are lying at their moorings in the roads with topmasts struck, and all made as snug as possible, while the "unlucky folks on shore" are blessing their stars that they are not exposed to the drenching showers which are fling at internals.

CAUTION TO PROSECUTORS—NICE LEGAL POINTS.— Charles Cheshire, a young man, was placed at the bar for stealing a dress from 3, Middle-row, Knightsbridge. Miss Ann Maria Penhale said she was staying with her aunt, who keeps a coffeehouse at 3, Middle-row, Knight s bridge. She went out yesterday and bought a dress, which upon her return she placed on a table in the coffeeroom. It was in the middle of the day, about 1 o'clock, and she thought it quite safe. Prisoner and another young man came in, and she saw the dress safe while they were there. Mr. Arnold—When did you miss it? Prosecutrix—A few minutes after they were gone. Mr. Arnold—How long before they left had you seen it? Prosecutrix—Ten minutes. I know they took it. Mr. Arnold—How do you know they took it ? Prosecutrix—Because of what the prisoner told me. He came in again in the course of the afternoon, and evened to me that he had taken it. Mr. Arnold— What did he say—what passed between you? Prosecutrix—l said, "If you will produce my dress, it will go more favourably with you." Mr. Arnold—Anything else ? Prosecutor—l said I had no doubt he had taken the dress, and he had better acknowledge the truth, and if he did he would receive more favourable treatment, and then he said Mr. Arnold—Anything he said after that is not evidence, and I cannot receive his statement. Is there any other witness ? George Webb, 12, Lower North-street, said—l spoke to the prisoner, and I told him he knew he had better tell the truth, and it would then go favourably with him. I told him he knew that he and the other boy knew they had taken it. Mr. Arnold—Did you see them ? Witness—No, I was not there, and I am very glad of it, or I might have been charged too. Police •constable 290 B was about to prove an admission made by the prisoner, but Mr. Arnold said he could not receive it in evidence. Mr. Arnold—The prisoner must find one surety in £lO to appear here again this day week. Prisoner is well known to the police. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. ROBBERY BY A BUTLER. —James Kemp, an elderly m an, who was a butler, was charged with stealing a silver snuff-box, the property of Mr. Leonard Rymer, saddler, of 6, Bruton-street. Mr. Rymer said that on Saturday last, about five in the evening, the prisoner, whom he had known for about 30 years, came into his shop and said, " Where's the snuff box ?" He handed the prisoner his silver snuff-box, and the prisoner took it. His ()lr. Rymer's) man coming into the shop to ask for an account-book, he left the prisoner for a moment, and on turning round said, 'R here's that old scamp ? He's taken my snuff-bog," and although he went out of his shop immediately could see nothing of pri soner, and had seen nothing of the box since. Last night he met the prisoner and gave him into custody, when on being charged with stealing the bex, he replied, " Oh its all a mistake—a mistake." Mr. Knox—Have you got the box back new ? Mr. Rymer—Oh, dear, no. Burns, 68 C, said at first prisoner said nothing of the box, but afterwards that he had had it to take a pinch out of. Mr. Knox said ha should remand the prisoner for a week. REFUSING TO ADMIT THE POLICE —Mr. Henry Ellis, of the King's Head, 35, Crown- stuet, St. Ann's, was sum moned for refusing to admit the police on the morning of Sunday, the 27th July. The case was proved by Inspector Bowles and Sergeant Smith, 1 C, and the defendant (who had been fined 40s. in July fur permitting drunkenness in his house) was fined 60s. GRAND TRUNK RAILWAY OF CANADA. MEETING-(THIS DAY.) A special general meeting of the board and shareholders of this company was held this day at the London Tavern. T. Baring, Esq., M.P., presided. The meeting was called for the following purposes :- Ist. For the purpose of considering " The Grand Trunk Arrangements Act, 1862," passed at the last session of the Parliament of the Province of Canada. 2d. For the purpose of accepting the said Act in the manner and as provided in the 39th section of the same Act. The CHAIRMAN, in opening the proceedings, said the shareholders had all received the accounts of the company, and, comparing them with those for the corresponding period of 1860, he thought they would all agree that they were highly encouraging. As far as could be estimated, from the information received from Canada, a similar increase for the present year was certain, but they had a serious drawback in the unfortunate civil war that had been raging in America. That deplorable circum stelae- had led to a diminution of their traffic. They all knew that one-fitth of their line was in the United States, and to that ar.......Liece was to be attributed the fallinz off 'n ate passenger traffic, and that loss must continue until there was a cessation of hostilities in that part of the world. Until that circumstance took place they could not properly develop their traffic. He thought the meeting would agree with him in thinking that the exertions and zeal of Mr. Watkins were worthy of the highest praise. By his exertions a system of economy had been matured whioh had placed their account in the present satisfactory state. With regard to the Act of the Legilat ure they were called upon to give their assent, it was calculated by wise cone( salons to the shareholders in Canada that a most satisfactory future for the company would be secured. It WAS no new matter they were called upon to consider. The arrangements of the act had been solemnly argued on a former occasion. The chairman then entered into a statement of the proceed. ings that had taken place in Canada, and the course that had been adopted by the Government of Canada, and said, notwithstanding all that had been said, he did not but be lieve that the Government of Canada would listen to their claims. They were able by this act to say to the Govern ment of Canada, we have done`all we can to assure regu larity, honesty, and security for the company in Canada, and we therefore call upon you, the Government to do your part and admit our claims by adopting a fair arbitration and protect our interests, and then their postal arrangements would be safe and complete. By the arrangements pro posed by the act, when carried out, the shareholders would se cure their dividends. Whether they would be enabled to make arrangements with the Government of Canada to prevent any seizure of their property, or whether they should have to return to the state of things that existed 12 months ago, and again involved in litigation was uncertain, but he beloved the arrangements proposed in the act would effect in preventing it. They had succeeded in increasing their representatives at the Board in Canada, and he looked forward with confidence to the future for the success of the company. Mr. CRAWFORD, M.P., explained to the meeting the origin of the act which arose with a committee of bond holders who had deputed Mr. Ilrukins to [proceed to Canada, and by whose exertions the ar rangements had been carried out. He concluded by moving a formal resolution, accepting the Grand Trunk Arrangement Act, 1862. passed at last se-sion of the Par liament of the province of Canada. Mr. MORRIS urged the meeting to agree to the proposi tion. It would only stultify all that had been previously done if any other course was to be adopted. Mr. MoGG, of Bristol, read a protest against the proceed ings of the committee and the adoption of the act of arrange • ment. The protest, he sail, was very numerously signed. A PROPRIETOR asked the number of signatures to the document. Mr. MOGG replied 20, but he himeelf did not object to it Mr. MERCER was in favour of the adoption of the arrangement. Mr. WAINWRIGHT said the act of arrangement was only based on the act of 1854, and he thought that the bond holders had, no legal right to preference over the share holders. It would only be showing a little concession if the:preference bondholders were to place themselves in the same position as the other shareholders. (Confusi at.) Mr. CONYBEARE thought the bondholders had not been sufficiently consulttd, a'nd he proposed the adjournment of the meeting to a future day to be fixed by the chairman, in order that different interests might duly consider their pre sent position. The amendment was not seconded. Mr. OTTER said at a former meeting they had agreed to the arrangements which are to be carried out by the act of arrangement. If the meeting did not adopt the act it would be guilty of a breach of faith. He cowl emned the system of carrying prime ministers and influential parties on the line for nothing. Such a course was not adopted in this country. The Cabinet in this country, when they travelled either to Balmoral or Windsor, did not object to Pay the proper charges.

A Short Trip in _Hungary and Transylvania in the Spring of 1862. By Professor D. T. Ansted, M.A., 8. - e. Allen and Co. So little has Hungary hitherto been explored that 1 a work describing its natural features and produc tions, if seen only during a short trip, must possess unusual interest, especially when proceeding from the pen of so accurate an observer as Professor An sted. Here he was upon comparatively new ground. Of all parts of Europe Hungary has, perhaps, been least frequented by tourists, and this, in great mea sure, owing to a prevalent idea of its inaccessibility —an idea which Professor Ansted's volume will go a great way to dispel. He shows that, upon the whole, the difficulties of transit have been greatly exaggerated. Railroads traverse the country. The steamers on the Danube are excellent, and the hotel accommodation seems to have been quite up to the average. There is no reason, then, why some of the swarm of tourists that England annually sends forth to scatter gold broadcast over the Continent should not direct their steps thither, inasmuch as for na tural scenery, mountain climbing, or sport, it is all they could desire. Here the Alpine Club would find a new field for their energies, and the pursuers of game would, in the dense primeval forests, gratify at once their love of adventure, and find ample em ployment for their organ of destructiveness. I n one respect, however, it does seem to be inferior to most other nations of Europe—it has no mediaaval antiquities—no works of art. The towns appear to be essentially uninteresting, the villages are mere assemblages of huts. Collections of Roman anti- , quities exist in some of the chief cities 'tis true, inasmuch as the country was conquered by that people in the time of the Dacians, and traces of its occupation by them still exist. Still they are of small account. " A few roads, the form of an old amphitheatre near a few towns, and some other in dications, are all that can be made out." Never theless the soil itself is rich in antiquities, and col lectors would unquestionably find a trip remunera tive. In the words of the author, " Travelling in Hungary is really now so easy and so pleasant that there is no reason why the artist, the professional man, and even the typical tourist, should not take advantage of a district in Europe where it is possi ble to obtain new sensations, to visit scenes not hackneyed, to study a people not yet spoiled by a large influx of travellers, and to meet those mode rate difficulties and little hardships that are not only perfectly endurable, but almost pleasurable by their novelty. There are forests i❑ Hungary, only a very few days' journey from populous cities,where the bear and the wolf are extremely abundant, and are accompanied by the lynx, of which individuals have been shot not much inferior in size to the leo pard. The rivers of Hungary abound with fish of kinds seen in no other European waters. Birds from Africa are frequent visitors, and establish themselves in noble primeval forests of beech, such as are not to be found elsewhere in the Western world. Not far off are mountains whose snowy caps are rarely doffed, and which give rise to streams and torrents, sometimes falling over lofty precipices, sometimes forming in narrow, tortuous channels, and sometimes rushing over golden sands, or amongst broken but gigantic fragments of the rocks they have undermined. Even reptiles of rare forms and colours are not wanting ; and of the in sect world there are flights of locusts only rivalled in Asia Minor, and a peculiarly troublesome fly, a kind of tsetse of the Danube, also absolutely local. The geologist will find in the beds of some of the rivers and in the mountains rare and valuable mine rals. The paiceontologist may study the innumer able fossils obtained from the plains and bed of the Theiss, one of the richest localities in the world for gigantic bones. The antiquarian will follow with interest the course of Roman conquest in one of the most remarkable of the progresses made by that singular people, and may enrich his museum with rare coins and rarer and more interesting household utensils, manufactured after classic mo dels of the fine gold of the country." Thus there is something to suit all tastes; end not the least interesting part of the book is that which treats of the different races found in the country, such as " the Msgyar, the Jew, and the Turk, the descen dant of the old Raman, the D tcian modtfied into cue u•vuo,., Wailautl, tue Odauu, tt,s_ O prey, and sometimes other tribes, all settled harmoniously for centuries, each acknowledging the other as a fellow -countryman,ancl yet each as distinct as if be never left his native soil." It is clear then, that the country is one which affords a wide field for obser vation ; and, now that Professor Ansted has shown the way, it will, doubtless, not be long ere we shall meet with more information concerning it. THE MAGAZINES. The Cornhill. " Philip" is finished in this number with melo dramatic suddenness, and in the Round About Paper the author discourses of his craft. " Romola" re • veals a little more of the early Florentine life. " The Creize of the Sumter, from the Private Jour nal of an Officer," gives an interesting account of one of the most skilful and daring expeditions of modern times; and as Alpine travel has now become an institution with vacation tourists, its " art" is here expounded for their edification. Under the head of " The Climate and the Work" we meet with a description of the difficulties and dangers encom passing an Indian Governor-General; and A House in Westminster" is the title under which we find a graphic description of the missionary labours of certain tqsters of Charity among the heathen of that district. " There are dens in Westminster where no respectable people dare go," says the writer, " streets and alleys, where the houses are built so close together that scarcely more than one person can pass along at a time. Persons who visit the poor in :some of these localities choose days and hours when the men are away from home; They dare not go when they are there. Fights in the streets, insults, brutality, drurkennea, swear ing, and brawling, and then all the children prat tling and playing in the dirt, and stirring the gutters round about, and looking on with their round eyes ; and the geese cackling and the women standing at the doors with their babies; and then, perhaps, three or four people shrieking and yel ling, and rolling ever and over in the m iddle of the road : one need but go into the dens of West minster to see such things as these; and one turns . away and comes out into the broad streetsoneegehiand, glad to escape out of this Hades intorlhyieh strayed. But into this brawlivrg land the hesitation; g they quiet sisters pass without fear of the living women glide along like kindly ghosts n ter the houses; they they used once to be; they e nter send for them and by the sick Patie nts; the men e harms them, and men and they come.

The second part of the sketch of " The Two Brides" is given, and the adventures of " Mossoo" among the aristocracy of Leicester-square are continued. In "A Summer in America" Captain Knight gives his impressions of the Hudson and Niagara. Of the former, he says, " There are, I think, parts of the Rhine more striking than any part of the Hudson, but nowhere on the Rhine do you find the wild sylvan beauties which adorn the Hudson's banks; the drooping woods and rugged rocks, the quiet bays where the still water reflects the overhanging foliage, ar e characteristics of the Hudson which are wanting in the Rhine—in short the banks of the European river are more cultivated, and therefore less pictu resque than those of its American rival, to which, on the whole, I should award the palm of superiority in point of beauty." The Table Talk by Monkshood treats of professional diners out; and the tale of "An Arclplogist in Trouble" is based on the lssassination of the celebrated antiquary Winckel mann. ',Europe and article in urn's .A'eto Monthly. America" is the title this number, which i ° 0f b t a h s e e d open ingon a work recently published by M. Gasparin. And the concluding article treats of" The Slave Power." The philosophic Marcus Aurelius is chosen by " Sir Nathaniel" for his biographical sketch; a prince who is compared by M. Guizot, for conscientious ness, with St. Louis, and of whom Addison said, that he found in Italy " as many figures cf that excellent Emperor Marcus Aurelius as of all the rest together ; because the Romans had so great a veneration for his memory, that it grew into a part of their religion to preserve a statue of him in almost every private family." His philosophy was that of Stoicism. And " Adam Smith refers to the meditations of Marcus Aurelius as contributing more to the gene ral admiration of his character than all the dif ferent transactions of his just, merciful, and benefi cent reign"—but in analysing the Emperor's prac tical philosophy, which teaches that a man's being occupied in contethplating the mere sublime can never be an excuse for neglecting the more humble department, the shrewd Scotch economist perti nently remarks, " and he must not expose himself to the charge which Avidius Cassius is said to have brought, perhaps unj astly, againstMarcusAntoniLus that while be employed himself in philosophical speculations, and contemplated the propriety of the universe, he neglected that of the Roman Empire." Th e most sublime speculations of thecontemplative philosopher can scarce, urges Father Adam—father of political economy —compensate the neglect of the smallest active duty."

Most of the available ships of her Majesty's Mediterra neon fleet have lately been ordered to Corfu, for the par - pose, it is unuerstuud, or enabling the Commander-in-Chief to put them together through the steam exercises which he has hdd for some time past in contemplation. Although this may be, and no doubt is, one of the reasons for assem bling a squadron just now in the Adriatic instead of the Bay of Naples, as intended, still, considering the present aspect of affairs, it cannot but be looked upon as having some political significance. The ships now there are the Marlborough, 131 (flagship), the Algiers, SO, the Amphion, 36, the Doris, 32, and a gun-vessel or two ; and this force is immediately to be increased by the Queen,' 86, and probably the Scylla, 22, both from Malta. The Scylla arrived here on the let inst. from Gibraltar, bound for the Piraeus of Athens, having been relieved by the Malacca, 17, but it is thought likely she may receive telegraphic orders instruct ing her to join Admiral Martin. The melancholy news was received by her of the very sudden and unexpected death, at Gibraltar, of Lieut. Warren, of the Malacca, supposed to have been occasioned by disease of the heart, The Queen is refitting, and filling up with stores and provisions, and, it is expected, will be ready to leave for Corfu about the 7th inst. The Magicienne, 16, which left Malta on July 24 to convey Mr. Scarlett from Corfu to Athens, will probably remain at the Pirwus for some time, to take the place of the Exmouth, 86, ordered to Smyrna, and thence to Malta. The ships on the coast of Smyrna, by the last accounts, were the Mars, 80, Icarus, 11, Firebrand, 6, and surveying vessel Firefly; but, the Mars having been ordered home to be paid off, the two gun-vessels have been despatched to replace her. These vessels —the Wanderer, 4, and the Surprise, 4—left Malta on the 26th ult. for Beyrout, the latter havin g orders to call at Suda Bay (Candia). The vacancy caused in the Mediterranean fleet by the Mars going home will be filled up by the Edgar, Capt. the Hon. F. A. Foley, lately commissioned at Ports mout, as flagship of Rear-Admiral S. C. Dacres, C. 8., second in command of the fleet in the Mediterranean. The Pelican, 17, was still at A lexandria, rawaiting the arrival of he of the captain, officers, an d crew Majesty's sloop, Pantaloon, from Bom b a y, who are to be submitted to court martial for allowing their vessel to get ashore in the Mozambique Channel. They were expected at Suez about the 30th of July, or the week following. The Garnet, 11, was at Constantinople, and the Weser, 6, and Cockatrice, 3, were at their stations in the Danube. The Medi na , sur veyingship, Capt. T. A. B. Spratt, C. 8., left Malta for Sm yrna on the 31st ult. Capt. Sprat has obtain° 1 four mon ths' leave of absence to recruit his health, which has been for some time past failing him.

The Medina has recently afforded valuable assistance to the local Government in examining the sea bottDm round a considerable extent of these islands, with reference to the late discovery of coral near Gozo. r rom her explorations it appears that coral rocks exist in from 30 to 60 fathoms in many localities round the coast, and a closer survey will doubtless disclose many others not yet discovered. The local Government has not yet decided on the steps to be taken for regulating the coral fishing, which premises to be a lucrative source of industry for the hai dworking population of these islands. The Trident, 3. paddlewheel sloop, went out OR the Ist inst. to try he r en gines, which have been repaired in this dockyard, and on the following day took her departure for Naples with super numeraries and stores for the London, 86, and NePilin e t S 6, stationed there. The Trident was the first vessel to enter the new dry dock just completed under the direction of the engineer and architect, Mr. Churchward, upon whom its construction reflects much credit.
