George Meredith, 19, was charged with being drunk and disorderly and assaulting Police-constable, 83 T, in the execution of his duty, and William Hill, 17, and Chas. Hill, 24, were charged with assaulting 83 'l', attempting to rescue Meredith from his custody ; • also assaulting Police-constable, 77 T • public carriage attendant, 28, John Kirk and Frederick Chandler, who came to the assistance of the police. Richard Neenan, 83 T, said last evening at four o'clock he was in Fulham-road, and saw the prisoner Meredith and two others behaving in a disorderly manner at the Radcliffe Arms. The landlord asked me 0 remove him, and he threatened t. split my head with a quart pot. At last they left the house and used bad language in the street, and finding their conduct was very bad witness took Meredith into custody for being drunk and disorderly. William Hill flew at me and hit me in the jaw, and Meredith kicked me. I called to the carriage attendant, and gave Rill into custody. Ile escaped from tho'attendant, and Charles Hill came up and gave me a blow in the nose and drew blood. The attendant came up again and they assaulted him and a gentleman who assisted me. They assaulted every one that came near them. Mr. Hen ordered Meredith to pay a fine of 405., or be sent to prison for a month. The case of the other two, who were sober, was as bad as could be conceived, and sentenced them to throe months' hard labour each.

The half-monthly accounts in foreign stocks and railway shares have passed over with only one de faulter. The shareholders in London of the Erie Railway are organising a movement with the view of pro tecting their interests, and of securing some in fluence in the management of their affairs on the other side of the Atlantic. It will be very satis factory if they shall succeed, especially to prevent the ruinous fluctuations which have taken place in prices.

Ar 01,4, 'l'horwalsdeu, and the two I.laid of ;Slesliam fillies did the same. Mandrake was walking. TabJuret, Good Hope, and Brother to General Peel cantered. The rest of his team did nice mile► work. The Tom Bowline colt finished up with a two-mile breather at a gool pace. Thursday.— Osborne, on the High Moor, sent Weather Star, Bertha, and luou a rattling two-mile gallop. Pom fret galloped a mile and a half by himself. Minaret went steadily the same distance, and Little - Duke led Baron, Cavendish, Vintner, Fernleaf, and Aperture a nice gallop of a mile and a half. Fobert, ou the Low Moor, only cantered his lot. Dawson sent Pretender the mile gallop thrice, the last time a good gallop.

MALTON.-I would advise your subscribers to keep Ta raban on the right side in all his races at Manchester, as ho has been undergoing a strong preparation. CHIL7ON.-Whit Monday Handicap.—Venetia's previ ous running will be the best guide. Wistaria, Onyx, and Little Doctor were put through the mill, and finished in the order named. I believe one or two of these will go for unclosed stakes. Osprey and Virginia Creeper are engaged at the Bath and Somerset meeting. The latter won't run, and Osprey is doing very little. Two more horses arrived here on Monday -a two and a three year old—but I don't know what they are. ILSIEY.-At West Drayton, Hereford and Hammerton are in the Iver Plate. The first-named will be the bust. Of Lady Clinton, Luna, and Actress, in the Flying Stakes, whichever Mr. Heene runs will take some doing. Python, Vampire, liammeiton, and Triana are engaged in the Whit Monday Handicap, and I like Python's chance the best if ho goes for it ; and Alaster will be our best for the',Welter Cup. At Bath, Noyre Tauren is in the Seven teenth Biennial Stakes, but I have no liking for the half brother to Lord Lyon. Ligurian, in the Beaufort Cup, is well, but the company will be too good for him. H o l y _ rood, in the Eighteenth Biennial, is a nice little horse, but I don't think him good enough to win.

SADLER'S WELLS TIiEATRE.-- On Wednesday evening a very attractive performance took place for the benefit of Miss Bessie Harrison. The entertainments were a farce "Up Stairs and Down Stairs," the comedy of "London Assurance," and the burlesque of the "Maid and the Magpie." The great attraction of the evening was, of course, the performance of Miss Harrison, and she may be very highly praised for the lively and vivacious embodiment of the celebrated part of Lady Gay Spanker in the comedy. It was very nicely done in all respects, and showed that Miies•Harrisou poseEses talent of no or di,uary description. THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, MAY 15, 180. JOINT-STOCK BANKS.

PARIS, FRIDAY, May 14. SHARE LIST. Z)11 DINARI 4.llAkix.rab AND STOCKS. raid. Closing Business Price. dude. On Monday evening nest the last day for the holding of Public meetings expires. For five days before the elec tions, which come off on the 23rd and 24th, public meetings are forbidden by law ; the five days are always claimed by the GovernMent, which industriously works during this period without fear of effective counteracting propaganda from the Opposition. It was, perhaps, natural that the Democrats of Paris should desire. to employ the remaining. days to the best advantage. And if riot and uproar be making the most Of political opportunities, they have tunioubtedly done so. Hithertd the numerous electoral meetings of Paris have been held with tolerable outward decorum. There has been plenty of noise, but little that came under the denomination of rioting. No speaker at a public meeting is allowed to discuss the Constitution, or make any disrespectful allu sion to the Emperor. A commissary of police is always present to see that these regulations are carried out. Up to Wednesday the Democrats of Paris contented them selves with driving the commissary to desperation by every species of indirect allusion and inuendo which the ingenuity of Frenchmen could devise. Sometimes their in geneity was carried so far that .the meeting was dissolved. But in the,;e latter days cf the public meetings, the Parisians have grown tired of baiting the commissary. They have apparently wished to wind up the - electoral campaign with some more striking tiemonstration, and they have had their wish. On Wednesday evening' a great meeting was - held at the Chaelet Theatre. M. Emile 011ivier was announced to speak. It is hardly necessary for me to again recount the position which this young deputy holds in the. political world. On account of his negotiations with the Emperor, with the view of reforming the Constitution in a liberal sense, he lost his popularity with the Republicans, stmongst whom he ranked himself. The reforms which he projected were all frustrated by M. Rouher, whilst poor M. 011ivier lost the favour of his party. He is now vehemently—nay Savagely—opposed, and his chance of re-election for the city of Paris is, to speak mildly, none of the best. No wonder, then, that the ChAtelet`Theatre was crowded. The hour fixed washalf-past eight, but persons began to assemble as early as half.past four, and at seven all the ap proaches to the building were blocked up by a crowd anxious to obtain admittance. When the doors were thrown open the struggle was indescribable. So great was the confusion within the building that it was fully ten o'clock before let. 011ivier could obtain a Waring. He rose at nine, and combatted the din of the roaring multitude for a full hour. At last one of the audience in the front gallery got up and asked them to hear the deputy, remarking that they could learn nothing if they did not hear his explanations. Then M..ollivier again got up, but the interruptions were still numerous ; as always happens in these cases, if one of the audience made a remark there I was a row of some seconds involved in the attempt to silence him. Thus M. 011ivier's speech was curtailed to one-half the length which he bad deemed needful for for an explanation. Ho divided it into two parts. In the first he defended his plitical conduct, enumerating his constant efforts in the cause of liberty. This part of his speech was rather favourably received. Ise urged his pleas that liberty could not e achieved b revolution that as they had got the Em b pire, they ought to make the moat of it ; and that constitutional means were the best and speediest mode of obtaining reform. In the second pert of his address he endeavoured to demon strate from history th at revolutionary measures had never I produced results favourable to liberty, citing, by way of example, Italy, which had struggled in vain for so many years under the sterile agitations of Mazzini I and Garibaldi, but at last found repose in the sound constitutional policy of Count Cavour ; Hungary, also, he said, had been powerless under Kossuth, but now took rank amongst independent nations under the direction of M. Peak ; lastly, Prussia herself, pre viously weak, was now most powerful under the rule of Count Bismarck. These unpalatable remarks were received with great disapprohation, and constant cries of "A la question !" But M. 011ivier displayed, at least, the quality of courage. He was not to be put down. He affirmed that the present Govern. ment did not one its origin to the coup d'aat, but to the subsequent votes of the plebiscite, and was thus conse crated by universal suffrage. Moreover, the revolution of 1848 was the direct' forerunner of personal government under the Empire. Both these assertions were received with a tempest of dissent. The crowd literally howled with fury on being told that it was the author of its own . slavery. Lastly, AL I 011ivier vehemently denounced the practice of taking •• the oath of fidelity to the Emperor with the delibe rate intention of overthrowing the Government at the first possible opportunity. I may remark that every candi date returned to the Corps Ugislatif must swear allegiance to the Emperor. The Republican deputies all take this oath, but they do not conceal their intention of breaking it. The speaker said that he had taken the oath, he 1a I to k.,n it honestly—and he meant to keep it. To tAk. , a , i oath wi h the deliberate intention of breaking it he held io be infamoos•and dishoimuralile. 1 his put an end to the meeting. The uproar was so great that the com missary, who ha i allowed the ._proceedings to go on until half.past eleven, 'declared the meeting dissolved. The crowd separated in indescribable confusion, a portion hissing 011ivier, and shouting for Bancel, the opponent of the former ; the rest carrying off the orator in triumph. The mingling of the audience v ith the great crowd which had been unable to obtain admission was the signal for _uproarious proceedings outside. The crowd, Which numbered 20,000, had kept telerab'y quiet at first, but the emptying of the theatre speedily produced a riot. The cries of " Vive Bancel !" were followed by singing c f the obnoxious " Marseillidee." Tie revolutions y hymn was given amid loud acclaim, and a repetition was de inanded. Well it might be, for the " Marseillaise " sung by at least 10,000 voices is one of the most inspiriting national chants ever composed. The sergent3-dc•rille had, how ever, come up in great force by this time, and about five hundred of them, with some mounted municipal guards, charged the mob, without drawing their swords, and attempted to disperse it. The police behaved with great moderation, but several blowS were . struck, and some Wounds were infreted. One yourg man in particular was struck in the forehead, and bled profusely. Several groups which had formed themselves near the theatre, after having been partially dispersed by the police, proceeded towards the Faubourg St. Antoine, and went bareheaded round the Column of July singing the " Mareeillaise ;" others uttered seditious cries, and threw stones at the windows. The tumult was at lengths quelled by the arrival of a strong party of scrgcnts dc-ville, who succeeded iu arresting several of the most riotosts. There was likewise a row in one of the beer-drinking saloons indeed, all the caNs in the neighbourhood, which were densely crowded, suf fered damagebut this was quieted by the police. The number of arrests was 20. Yesterday there was another outbreak. A meeting was held at the Cirque Napohion by the electors of the fifth circumscription, and was dissolved by the commissary. An enormous crowd then gathered on the Boulevard Beaumarchais round the theatre. All the neighbouring streets and lanes were crowded. The " Marseillaise" was again sung, the entire crowd joining in with great vehemence, The police arrived to the number of six hundred, and attempted to disperse the multitude. But the. GOO seryents-de-ville were swallowed up in the crowd of from 15,000 to 20,0C0. The municipal guards then came up, and charged the crowd, which took refuge, in the small lanes. The divisional inspector of the municipal police, M. Brun, was struck on the Temple by a heavy stick, and carried away covered with blood. Another officer was wounded. Of the crowd many were iajureo but none gravely. Twenty-five _arrests-w . ere made. There was yet another disturbance in the seventh cir cumscription on Wednesday. M. Rochefort held a 1 meeting, and the people wh o could nat get iu sang the " Marvillaise," and destroyed sowizycperty. _The Liberal journals exhort the electors to peaceful measures.

A WONDERFUL CLoex.— If the spirit of good King Alfred, who invented the mode of measuring time by burning candles of different lengths, could be permitted under the auspices of 11Ir. Home to view the wonders of m ,deru c:vilitiati,►n, we doubt if anytL•ing would interest the ingenious monarch more than a clod: which has just been completed for the cathedral of Beauvais, and which far su rpasses all the existing specimens of the clockmaker's art. This wonderful piece of mechanism contains no less than 90,000 wheels, and indicates, among many other things too numerous to recite, the days of the week, the month, the year, the signs of the zodiac, the equation of time, the course of the planets, the phases of the moon, the time at every capital in the world, the movable feasts for 100 years, the saints' days, &c. Perhaps the most curious part of the mechanism is that which gives the additional day in Leap year, and which consequently is called into action only once in.four ycar3..ila clock is. : wend. up,,(xety eight days.

A correspondent of the Lzrant IleralA writing from Cairo on the 2Gth ult., says :—" The affa'r of the Ma nasse ' attempt' to blow up the Viceroy Las occupied the local authorities and their auxiliary consular commission since my last, and has even yet only reached the stage of a true bill' being found against the luckless impresario and another rayab, as guilty of mur derous intent in the first degree, and against two Italians as their accomplices to a minor extent. The two former have been what in Europe would be called committed for trial, and the latter are held in custody by the Italian consul to be dealt with rs he may be advised from Florence. Though" all the world now knows that the whole thing was merely a c:umsy plot ftighten the Viceroy and get money out of his gratitude for discovery cf the `plot'—which was to have been fathered on Muslapha Fazyl or Ilalim—it is beliovel it will go hard with Manasse and his fellow rayab, if only pour clicourager les attires. They will probably be sentenced to transportation to the White Nile ; but as a fatality at tends the voyage to that Egyptian Cayenne—at least no prisoner ever despatched thither has been known to reach it—you aro not likely to see the old familiar face again in Para." THE VICAR OF DONCASTER ON DISESTABLISIIMENT. The Far. Dr. Vaughan, in a sermon preached in aid of the Doncaster Inflrmnry, spoke in the following terms on the transitional state of the Churcb:—" We are passing more and more—for better or worse—out of a parochial into a congregational life. We are becoming less of State Church and more of a Free Church —if expressions once used as party watchwords may be employed, for explanation's sake, in a simple and unpo lemical manner, in the sanctuary of God's house. It is not for me either to rejoice or lament over a transition as momentous as it is inevi table, and I take things as they are, and I would urge you to turn to good account the circumstances - in which God's Providence has placed us. Now the lesson which I learn from this change is simple and practical. It is that the Church of flitch place—that the congre gation worshipping in each church—must bestir itself to a livelier and snore -earnest.,hlterest in the management of its own concerns. I have so faith in the multiplication of Church machinery on a large scale—whether it take the form of convocations, conferences, or congresses. These things seem to me to have a tendency to distract the minds of the Church's pastors from their real work and from their alone available infiticn . ce. What I desire is that the pastor of each Church, acting with his own church-officers and church-worshippers should endeavour soberly and earnestly to arouse, in his own little sphere of action, the zeal and interest of his people in the particular work of the Church, its services, its charities, and its missions, so far as that work depends—and it does mainly, soon, perhaps, it will entirely, depend—upon voluntary effort. The Church of England is becoming less and less national —less and less territorial—in that sense, I trust, in no other) less and less national—more and more inde pendent—more and more congregational. If there is something in this to be deplored, there is at least some thing to be rejoiced in. The heart of the people must be appealed to for the maintenance of the people's worship." THREE YORKSHIRE MEMBERS ON THE PERMISSIVE BILL. Mr. Edward Akroyd, in reply to a note urging aim to support the Permissive Bill, wrote :—" I beg respectfully to acknowledge yours of the Bth, informing me that a petition in favour of Sir Wilfrid Lawson's Permis sive Prohibitory Liquor Bill, signed by upwards of 9,000 inhabitants, has been sent to Mr. Stansfeld for presenta tion. I have further to thank you for the very considerate and courteous manner in which you press upon me to sup port the measure. Am I unreasonable in asking—whilst thoroughly agreeing with yon in your object of putting down the abuses of the present licensing system—that I should be permitted to exercise my own judgment in accomplishing our common object? Honestly I believe that the Beerhouses, &c., Bill will do this more effectually than the Permissive Bill. For were this last measure passed, it would only be applicable to those places where the majority of the ratepayers are in favour of the sup pression of beerhouses and public-houses, leaving untouched those places where the majority are on the other side. More over, if the .bill were passed and put into force, there would be da:iger of a strong reaction, which might cause the re opening of houses once closed. Again, I think, it would be unjust to confiscate the property of those who had embarked their capital on the faith of an Act of Parliament in these houses. I have deemed it more respectful to yourself to state thus broadly my objection without any desire to enter into a controversy on this question. I view with regret the differences among those who wish to improve the moral well-being of society.as to the means of arriving at the accomplishment of their purpose." Mr. .S'.ansfeld gave the following reply to a similar con4rounication I have presented the Halifax petition signed by upwards of 9.003 persons, inhabitants of Halifax, in favour of i r \V. Law: on's bill. I need not repeat my opinions on th 3 subject. lam in favour of the object which I believe the petitioners to have in view, and what ever I can do I will do to promote and urge prompt and comprehensive and more stringent legislation on the subject, bnt I do not approve of the bill as now conceived and drawn." --- Sir Francis Crossley wrote much after the same manlier. The Leeds Mercury Las reason to know that there is no truth in the rumour of the Owl that Mr. Stansfeld will succeed Mr. G. A. Hamilton as poi manent Secretary to the Treasury. Viscount Stratford de Redeliffe gave notice on Thursday night of his intention on Juno 4 to move for copy of any treaty concluded between her Majesty's Chief Secre tary of Sato for Foreign Affairs and the Minister of the United States Government of Noah America, respecting the so•called Alabama clai►ns, be laid upon the table of the hcuse. In a pamphlet un " Our Duty in the Present Crisis," just published in Dublin, and addressed by the Rev. Fit tcher Birk(rdike, incumbent of Ardamine, to his brethren, the following advice is given :—" Let us not lean en the Conservative patty, with Mr. DI-raeli es their leader, lost our staff break under us and pierce our own arm. This has harpcnel to us more than once already." The Tablet learns from Rome that the heavier work of the preparat7ons for the General Council has been now got through, and that the foreign theologians who have been engaged upon it during the last six mouths are leav ing Rome. Mgr. Weathers, the theologian for England, is on his way home to take up his pcsitien in London as Pre eident of tha Diocesan Theological Seminary which his Grace the Archbishop of Westminster is about to open at Westminster. The Weekly Register says--A very urgent " whip" bus gone forth from both sides of the Hou Lo se of rds, so as to summon to t o w n every peer that can be found for the coming debate.; and votes on the Irish Church Bill. Very soon after the short Whitsuntide vaca tion is over, the battle will commence in the Peers, and the present universal speculation as to " what will they do with the Mr will be set at rest. lf, as some persons predict, the measure is rejected by the Lords, we ehall in all probability have a more stirring political time ban h:is been witnessed in England since the diys of Wm. .V. and the pasiing of the great Reform Bill. A return has just been printed of the number of companies wound up or winding up since August, 1802. From this it appears that in Great Brit:du and-Ire laud there have been 480 companies thus disposed of, with an aggregate nominal capital of .V 18,634,272 ; tho paid up capi ta (as far as known) amounts t) £21,348,027 ; liabilities, £74,482,421 ; and the expens33 of winding up, £'330,283. Of the total nuather of companies, 423 belong to England, 42 to .Scotland, and 15 to Ireland. No return has been furnished of the expenses incidental to winding up in Scot land. There was a somewhat serious riot in Paris on Wednesday evening. M. Emile 011ivior addressed a et owded meeting at the Theatre Meek t. 'rhe author of "Le 19 Jan vier" was badly received, and could not obtain n hearing for some time. .A t length, whilst saying that the Empire was founded on Universal Suffrage, the uproar became so great that 11. e cotemi.,eary of police dissolved the meeting. Out side the theatre there was a great crowd, which kept order for rome time, 'tut niter a while the " seilla:se" was sung, end the disturbances commenced. The police then iet , rfereel and fighting ensued, resulting in serious damage. It is feared that some lives are lost. Sem al were wounded. Sir n..Phillinacre beard an applidaticrn on Friday at the Court of Admit ally ty the American Government in the cafe) of the alleged Confederate ship the Mary, other wise the Alexandra. Mr. B. C. Clarkson, en the part of the United States Government, applied for a commission to examine witnesses at Nassau or New rrovidenea to show that the vessa which had been seized by the Ameri can Government bad belonged to the Confederates. Mr. - Butt, Q.C., and Mr. Benj amin strenuously opposed the ap plication. The learned counsel said the court could l not fail to see the politica l p ur p ose intended by the deay. Sir R.
