TICE CROWN OF SPAIN. Dom Fernando has again been solicited to accept the crown of Spain in order that the idea of an Iberian kingdom may be realised. Despatches from Portugal state that the Envoy of the Spanish Government had been received by the Prince on his arrival, but that he had not obtained a second interview. Dom Ferdinand, it is thought, will most likely adhere to his former opinion, but the Government will await his final answer before bring ing the monarchical question under the notice of the Cortes.

Phe income of the year, it will be seen, amounts t £640,499 18s., and the total charge £445,077 10s. 9d The difference, £95,422 7s. 3d., added to the balance of the surplus fluid at the commencement of the financial year, raised that item to £1,002,974 15s. 9d., its present amount.

The interest from investments is £120,959 12s. 10d., or £4 2s. per cent. on the net amount of the company's realised assets existing in June, 1868 ; and in connection with this important feature of the company's affairs the directors have the satisfaction of repotting that the profit and loss account again exhibits - a considerable profit, amounting this year within a trifle to the sum of £48,000. It may be remembered that a profit of nearly equal amount WAS announced in last year's report. Turning to the items constituting the charge of the rear, it will be noticed that the sum payable in satisfac tion of claims on decease of lives assured is larger than usual. This circumstance, however, is not very material; as was observed oa a previous occasion, the proper pain luennial average is generally pretty sure to obtain, and the fact that the average for the past two years barely ex ceed 3 £30.,000 tends to confirm that statement. The expenses of management are greater by nearly £BOO than they were last year. They would have been materially less but for the unavoidable cost of transferring the company's securities into the names of additional trus tees. Taken as they are, however, these expenses must be regarded as very moderate. It will be observed that they are;only three per cent. of the total income. BALANCE-SHEET. JUNE 30, 1869. Du.

JOHN MESSENT, Manager. The Hungarian budget has just been presented to tho Diet by the Financial Minister, and shows a satisfactc,ry condition of affairs. The accounts are much more favour able than was expect.-.. , d, the arrears of direct taxation, which wt-1-e thought to be very heavy, proving to lie. only £70,000, and these are largelycempensatcti fcr bysurplusse3 cn the indirect taxes, the customs, and the state revenues fr , re mines, &c. The year was net especially favourable, and there had been extmordirany expenees in arming and clothing the militia. Nevertheless, I.y the - help of last year's surplus, the Minister expects to dispense with all unusual expedients. During the blief time in which Hungary has cent.rol'ed her own finances 5.11 c has net only paid her way but hrs laid by 4600,000 in iwo years. Scme clisappeintment was felt that the Finance Minister did not propose to reduce the taxation, the land-tax amounting in some cases to nearly 30 per cent., but there are committees of inquiry in existence which have not yet completed their labours. VUSSIA.,N RAILWAYS, The Russians are making great exertions to extend their railway system. At the beginning of the year an imperial ukase directed that eight lines should be immediately con structed in consequence of a special report presented to the Emperor by the military authorities. This report pointed out that the neighbouring States wore much better supplied with railways than Russia. If Prussia commenced hostile operations she might employ four parallel lines for the transport of her troops to the Russian frontier. Nor aro these the only lines at her command. Thanks to the network of railway lines connecting Posen, Stettin, Breslau and ffresden the resources of Northern and Cen tral Germany could be readily brought to bear upon Poland. Austria is not so well provided with railways as Prussia, but she is rapidly supplying her deficiencies, and in Eastern and Southern Hungary new lines are in pro gress which will materially strengthen her position with regard to Russia. The Russian generals, in the report referred to, consequently propose that Warsaw, their weak point, should be connected by direct lines with the centre and south of the Empire. They are also anxious to have direct communication by steam between the central provinces and the Crimea, Caucasus, qnd the Baltic. Two more lines are recommended with the view of facilitating the movements of troops between East and 'West, so as to render the whole military strength of the vast empire readily available for service. It is remarked, as significant of the coolness existing between Russia and Prussia that Prussia has declined to rencw the extradition treaty which is just expiring, and which has been in force with more or less stringency since the battle of Waterloo. The great object which Russia has in view under this treaty is the extradition of the Polish fugitives, and their numbers may be guessed from the fact that dur ing a suspension of the treaty 6,000 persons escaped from Russia into Prussia in two years. ROYAL lIARRLIGES. The King and Queen of Wiirtemburg are, it is said, about to visit Munich, with the view of arranging a mar riage between the young King of Bavaria and the Grand Duchess Maria Alexandrowna, of Russia, niece of the Queen of Wiirtemburg. This alliance, which is believed to have considerable political importance, has been suggested since the announcement of the marriage of Prince Charles of Roumania with the Princess Elizabeth of Wied. It was formerly supposed that the Grand Duchess was the destined Princess of Roumania. THE SULTAN IN SUEZ The voyage of the Sultan to Suez has been brought under the notice of the Diplomatic Corps, and it may now be looked upon as an official affair. The Sultan, it is supposed, will leave Constantinople on the 12th of November. He will be accompanied by the Grand Vizier and a numerous suite, and escorted by a fleet of two divisions ; - ono, consisting of ironclad vessels, will anchor at Port Said, and the other, comprising corvettes and steam-vessels, will follow in the wake of the Imperial yacht. On reaching Suez the Sultan will be met by the Governor-General of Hedjaz, and deputations from several provinces of Arabia, who will come to pay their respects to the representative of Islamism in the Ottoman Emperor, and at once achieve a great political and religious demonstration. THE ABYSSINIAN MURDERS, Messrs. Powell and J( nidns are returning to England, haling rulfilred the object of their search in identifying the remains of their relatives. In their expedition against the Shangalla tribe they received great assistance - from Prince Kassia, of Tigre, and Colonel Kirkham, his military instructor. An armed force was placed at Mr. Powell's disposal, and he was provided with the same interpreter who served Lord Napier. On arriving at the spot where the murder was committed they found that the Shang,allas were prepared for their coming, and the greater part ( f them escaped through the jungle. Among those killed in the struggle was the instigator of the crime, who had - on the murdered Mr. Powell's coat. The avenging party did all in their power to inflict punishment on the cruel tribe ; five villages were burned to the ground, and 1,400 head of cattle were captured. Colonel Stanton, her Majesty's Consul-General, presented the two gentlemen to the Khedive, to whom they expressed their sense of the services rendered to them by his son, Prince Mahomed Taufik, on theirarrival some little time ago. ELECTION NEWS.— A. C. Fisk, chairman of the National Union Republican Association, of Mississippi, has telegraphed to the President that General Ames has an nounced his intention "to carry the November election against the Dent ticket, if he has to march his soldiers from precinct to precinct to effect it." In reply to the charge General Amos telegraphed to the President, "By the papers I see that a telegram has been sent to you, wherein I am quieted to the effect that I will not give a fair election. The statement is without truth." Both parties announce their confidence of success, but Dent's chance appears the stronger. Andrew Johnson, in all probability, will be elected United States Senator from Tennessee. The Legislature mat on the sth inst., and organ ised the next day. The Tennessee correspondent of the Cin cinnati Gazette, writing on the Bth inst., says The L egis lature having this day finished its organisation, the elec tion of United States Senator will take place on Tuesday, the 19th inst. The two candidates now most prominent are A. Johnson of East Tennesse, and Emerson Ethe ridge of West Tennessee. Edmund Cooper of Middle Tennessee will not be a candidate so long as Johnson is ; but if Johnson is defeated he will be urged. Neil S. Brown of Middle Tennessee is also reckoned a strong rival of Johnson and Etheridge. West Tennessee is all for Etheridge ; but East Tennessee gives him small sup port. Neither division of the State is united on Johnson, but he has strength in Middle and East. Etheridge strives to rally against Andy all the old Whigs and all the rebels who smart at the recollection of his severities during his Military Governorship, and are enraged at his trying to punish Lee. Johnson tries to whip in all that have had favours from him heretofore, not recollecting that "gratitude is a lively sense of favours expected." The ex-President howls for national repudiation, Etheridge against it. The Democratic Convention which assembl3d at Brenborn, Texas, on the 29th September, put a full Slate ticket in the field, as follows :—Governor, Hamilton Stuart, of Galveston; Lieut.-Governor, James M. Armstrong, of Jasper; Treasurer, J. G. Killough, of Fayette; Controller, Edward Downey, of Cameron ; Commissioner Land Office. James P. Rector, of Guadaloupe ; Congress, 3d District, Capt. R. L. Fulton, of Galveston. In Virginia the most prominent Senatorial candidates are Franklin Stearns, Gen. Robert Williams, and Lieut.-Governor John F. Lewis. The Virginia Legislature will, of course, promptly ratify the Fifteenth Amendment, but there is no chance of its ratification by Tennessee. Governor Walker sent his message to the Virginia Legislature on the ith inst. He urges the ratification of the Suffrage Amendment, saying their interests require it, and their faith is pledged to it. He also recommends the election of Senators, considering it reluisite to their admission as a State. The Conserva tive members of the Legislature, in caucus, the same night resolved to accept the Suffrage Amendment. In the Vir ginia Senate, on the 6th, a protest of the Republican mem bers against any acts of the Legislature at this session, the members not having taken the test oath, was presented and tabled, and a resolution was adopted to inform the Comeihnding-General of She organization. In the House a similar protest was presented, a resolution to administer the "ironclad" oath was refereed, and Stephen S. Turner, Conservative, was elected Speaker. A telegram, dated New York, the 20th, informs us that the Virginia Legis tare has elected Lieut.-Governor Louis and Judge John son to be members of the United States Senate. Governor Curtin has gone to St. Petersburg to relieve Governor Clay as Minister there. Governor Clay cannot be presented until the Emperor returns from Odessa. [AnvmarsEmrsr.]—Holloway's Ointment and Pills.— Modern Science.—The time is not remote when all skin diseases were pronounced to be incurable, but happily for all such sufferers of the present day the use of Holloway's noble remedies will speedily dispel this discouraging de ; lusion. Scrofulous sores, strumous affections, and in flammations yield a ready obedience to the cooling, recti fying, and strengthening properties of this ointment and these purifying pills. Their accompany in g directions will enable every one to apply these remedies to the best advantage. A main point in favour of using Holloway's medicaments in constitutional complaints lies in the fact of their power to purify without interfering with estab ishQd er wokettiag the frame.
