As a general rule corn- Mittees of investigation do more harm than od, but th e report of a careful accountant o f high standing could not be otherwise than bene ficial to all parties honestly interestel, and a country shareholder suggests as follows —" The constant and large fluctuations in the Metro polital Railway shares, added to a succession of cir culars and lawsuits, naturally cause considerable anxiety to distant proprietors. It is also a source of inquiry if there can be any foundation in the reports that some of the parties intimately con nected with the management of the railway are con stantly engaged in large Stock Exchange operations in the shares of the company. This certainly can not be a healthy state of things. I believe it to be fur the interest of all parties concerned that there should be a thoroughly independent investigation of all parties connected with the company. The Lest way to effect this would be to appoint some Public accountant of eminence and position, who Would inspire confidence, to examine and sift the true position of the concern."

Brief accounts of electoral troubles in the provinces con fine to reach DR. There has been a slight political iemonstration at Marseilles—the only wonder being that :here has not been an outbreak at this place before. M. hmbetta, who is standing with great chance of success for the Ist Paris circumscription, is like vise a candidate for Marseilles. Nov, although ,üblic meetings aro no longer allowed, private meetings, ;o which each of the audience receives an invitation to dinner or ball, may yet be held. M. Gambetta was ?resent at one of these on Wednesday evening, and, on caving, the guests, strongly reinforced by the street mob, .ormed themselves into bands and promenaded the ,treets—of course singing the "Marseillaise." Several arrests were made ; but it does not transpire ;hat the crowd and the authorities came into 3ollision. More serious was the affair in the Aude depart nent, which I mentioned yesterday. It appears that some of the partisans of the rival candidates—MM. Pereire and Guiraud—met in one of the Limon' com munes and indulged in an angry altercation. One of the Pereireites insulted a Guirandite, whereupon the latter vplied with a couple of knife stabs. Two individuals were wounded, one seriously. This is the " riot Wended with bloodshed," which we were at first led to suppose was a regular pitched battle. There have been slight disturbances likewise at Bourges and the Puy-de- Dome. Both these places are in Central France, and the Aude is in•the extreme South, so that the excitement :overs a good deal of ground. But whatever there may be to come, the riots hitherto have not been very formidable. Even the official who was so severely wounded at the Cirque Napoldon affair this day week is :oming round rapidly. There can now be no doubtthat these manifestations are ,purposely exaggerated by the authorities. The Aude tffair, for instance, in which one man was seriously injured, was represented by a semi-official paper 'to be a case of rivers of blood and hills of slain. All Paris was alarmed by the statement of " tumults in which knives were used, and several mortally wounded." the affair was really as I have described it. this exaggeration is not all. The report is ;.nd ustriously spread abroad that numerous French referees 3f London, Brussels, Geneva, and the Hague are holding themselves in readiness for a revolution. Of course this is pure fiction, invented to frighten the voters. Neither the refugees nor anybody else expect a revolution, or the semi-official print; would not talk about it. This raising of the revolutionary phantom is not creditable to the Government ; but it is the old game, and it is very ingeniously managed. The official papers publish two iistinct editions. One, destined to meet the eye of Paris, contains nothing alarmist. But the other, which is sent off to the provinces, is full of the wildest and most fantastic legends. It is carefully iistributed amongst the rustic voters ; and as carefully kept from the Paris voters, who would like nothing better than to ridicule it. It is very strange, but not less true, that, in the midst ,f this election excitement, the rumours of war are once more beginning to make themselves heard. For a long time the Paris newspapers have banished all alarmist reports. The election news was regarded with more interest ; and, moreover, the rumours would keep. rho Bulgarian bands, triple alliances, movements of Ambassadors, and all that good old stock, would do just as well in June as in May ; and, moreover, they would come out flesh, and create excitement after a few months' calm. I fully expected to hear nothing of war preparations until after next Monday at the earliest ; but I have been disappointed. The reports have come up again ; and this time they are founded upon preparations which, to say the least, have a queer look. A military commission is about to try experiments with the convey ance and rapid disembarkation of horses on the Eastern railway. Then some other officials have been busying themselves with the calculation of the number of trains by clay which will be required to rapidly transport so many troops to a given spot. There is like wise more gossip about the sailing of fleets and the like. The Bourse has been affected. It would be rash to place too hasty an interpretation on these reports. They have been spread abroad scores of times before, no doubt ; but at the same time there is a war party at Court who would be only too glad to persuade the Emperor to engage in strife, with the view of putting off the evil day when Liberal Eeform will be the unanimous cry of the nation. The French ship Bretagne, which sailed from Buenos Ayres for Bordeaux on March 2G, has been lost with the captain and several of the crew. The Emperor and Empress have paid a visit to Queen Isabella. The 00141013 says that the visitors communi cated some good news to the Queen, which gave her great satisfaction ; but though Paris wonders what this good news could be, it is very incredulous • A NAVAL LEAVE-TAKING. On Sunday, the 2nd instant, after the celebration of Divine service on board lI.M. receiving ship Hibernia, at Malta, the officers and crew of the flagship Caledonia were addressed by Lord Clarence Paget, whose period of service as Commodore of the Mediterranean Fleet has expired. His lordship said : "My lads it, is due to Captain Gardner, Commander Codrington, and your )fficers generally, that I should state to you my pleasure at being able to declare that this ship is in the highest state of discipline and efficiency. To the good example shown by all the officers of the Caledonia this effect is due. Two years ago when I joined the ship I had reason to form great expectations of your conduct, and these have been fulfilled. I am anxious this should continue to be so. You are about to be paid off— to return to your homes—to be dispersed about the world, but I do entreat you for the short time you are together, keep up your discipline, preserve that bright character which you have won. Now we arc about to part. It cannot be that men who have lived so long together can separate without some degree of feeling. I cannot shake hands with everyone of you, but I wish you a very hearty fare well. For some time, atleast, I shallbe unemployed ; but my heart and soul is in the navy, and there is not a man among you whom I shall not be glad to see, and shake hands with, should I meet him at home. Now good-bye ; and I entreat you again, whether on paying off, or on leave at home, don't forget your discipline or good conduct. See what it has done for you. You are an example to others ; foreign Ministers have sent complimentary letters to the Admiralty at home ; your officers are always coming to roe with some plan for your benefit, so that by and bye men will be as well treated as officers. I wish you all suc cess—and a hearty farewell." The Malta Observer says on this subject: "We feel sure that our readers will join us in asincere and public acknow ledgment of the merits of Lord Clarence Paget's very beneficial and successful naval administration. Lord Clarence Paget established the naval savings-bank sys tem, which has worked with perfect success. Lord Clarence Paget is the originator of the Contagious Disease Act '—popularly called at the time of its introduc tion, Paget's Outrageous Act'—and which has proved of such infinite advantage to the health of the services ; so much so that it is now proposed by members of both Houses to extend it to the metropolis and all corporate towns. The next improvement effected, and which to some extent accounts for the unexampled good conduct of the different crews, is the establishment of the Royal Naval Canteen on a respectable and liberal footing, and which includes a library and reading-rooms, theatre, fives court, skittle-alley, and other sources of amusement — to say nothing of the wholesome drinks wherewith to refresh the inner man. When Jack finds that his health and comfort are cared for even in this respect, he avoids being inveigled into vicious and poisonous haunts that go against his honest grain. Another most important step in the right direction that has conduced to the welfare and the brightness and education of the boys and seamen of the fleet, is the summer cruise taken every year to the ♦arious ports of foreign countries in the Medi terranean. Besides benefiting the health and mind of the crews by these travels, an excellent opportunity was afforded to the sailor of obtaining a knowledge of foreign ports, ships, and the manners, customs, and aptitudes of different people." Whi!st the day for the opening of the election bal• lot in France is rapidly approaching, Paris is agitated by various tumours of polit:cal changes. It is once more af firmed that the Emperor will make an attempt to conciliate the electors by liberal concessions. It is confidently ex pected that a decree will al pear before Sunday announcing a reduction of the army, a change of Ilinistly, and the end of personal Government. It is stated with regard to the threatened strike at Oldham, that a deputation from the Operative Cotton Spinners' Association has waited upon the Trades' Council, and after fully exp',ait,irg haw matters stood, a resolution was unanimously come to that the president and secretary of the Trades' Council and the Operatives' Association should wait upon the masters, with a view of endeavouring. to settle the matter in an amicable manner. As many conflicting accounts as to the Bishop of Salisbury's health have appeared in the newspapers, we (Globe) are asked to state that the disease from which ho la..s now been suffering for several months vares much from week to week ; but at present there is no substantial change for the better, and it is at present entirely out of the question that he should resume the duties of his diocese, INCREASE OF THE riT77, PRINCE OP WALES, The London correspondent of the Western Daily Press writes:—" A short time ago a general impression prevailed in the London clubs that Government would this session make a proposition to the House of Commons for an increase of the income of the Prince of Weles. The grounds on which tha proposition, if made, would havo rested, were that the Prince and Princess were called upon to perform State duties, and were in consequence compelled to incur large expenses which their present income would not meet. Had such a proposition been made, there is no doubt whatever that it would have bern carried, because few_ members of the House would havo liked to have spoken in opposition to it. I lelieve, however, there will be no occasion now for such a vote. I understand that arrange ments have been made by which the income of - Altis Royal Highness will be increased by, from £35;000' to £40,000 a year without the intervention cf Parli:.ment. These arrang6- ments have been made by her Il j !sty herself, in considera tion of the duties imposed upon the Prince and Princess of Wales by the state of her Mejes'y's health and the com parative raireatent in which 'she is c, mpelted 'Her Majesty's annuity to his Royal Highness is to date trom the commencement of the present year." oItDINAILY atiAo,ll:B AND STOCKS. raid Closing Business /hare Hallways.

The Derby favourites are approaching a level in the betting. Pretender has lost ground a little, and Pero Gomez and Belladrum have advanced. 5 to 2 against the first-named did not meet with response on Wednesday. Pero Gomez, on the other hand, came to so short a price as 3 to 1, and was backed to the amount of £2OO, but the odds were still forthcoming after that support. Belladrum was not heavily invested upon, because 4to 1 was the highest figure. Bookmakers were, however, so very cautions that they refused to make the slightest advance upon those odds, and the only transaction which came under our notice in connection with the Russley horse was a bet of 4i fifties which a gentleman laid by way of "hedging." With respect to the other candidates, there is very little doing. Perry Down is decidedly fourth favourite, 100 to 6 being the highest price. The training reports of all the three leading horses are very favourable. Belladrum keeps at his work, and looks and goes well. On Tuesday he did a mile and three-quarters, pulling up very fresh. Pretender keeps his form admirably. Pero Gomez has made very great improvement. On Wednesday he went two miles, part of the distance at a very great pace. The horse was in thebeat of condition when the run was over. The " tout " thinks that Morna will not stay the Oaks distance. It is now finally arranged that Daley will ride Belladrum in the Derby. • THE FATAL RIOT IN TRALEE. A Cork corrcrpondcnt telegraphs the following particulars of the conflict on Wednesday at Ballyheigne :—" A party of intending emigrants were drinking with their friends, when a row took place amongst them. Three policemen endeavoured to keep tho peace, and being resisted, they arrested two of the ringleaders. The people gathered round, and attempted to rescue them. The police tried to keep their prisoners. Stones cad tticks were then brought into requisition, and the police were fiercely assailed. They endeavoured to take the prisoners to 1113 barracks, when showers of atones coma ellcd them to let them go. Constable Conway Lad his skull fractured, Lnd was left proktrale on the road. The two others fled to the barracks, aLd were joined by ant thor. They got their rill, s, and sallied out to recapture the rioters, but were it c 4 iced with shouts of defiance. The BLitt was rctewcd with deq!ration. The pike caught the iingleaders and endeavoured to keep the crowd lack with their aide aims; s!oue throning then came to territlr that they In.d to fire. John O'Hara, a re turned American, was shot through the lift breast, and has since died. .John Dunn was shot in the left groin. Titia,thy O'Hara received t sabre cut in the arm. The police fled to the barracks and the crowd purstu d them. The police got in their prisoners, barred the door, and kept the people cut. Constable Con 'a life is despaired of. Constables Wahl and Fleming. sus: ained scvel al wounds. Reinforce ments of police were afterwards sett out." THE CRUISE OF THE NAVAL RESERVE. So far as the experiment has yet proceeded, the cruise of the Naval Reserve must be accounted a decided success. Correspondents writing "At Sea" declare that the men have taken to their duties with surprising quickness, and submit to the discipline of a man-of-war with very good grace. Admiral Dacres, indeed, has given his opinion of their seamanlike bearing in most favourable terms. " lie never," he said, " saw a finer body of men than was mustered on the Agincourt's quarter-deck, and he could not say which he liked best, the Reserve or the Coastguard." Mr. Childers, it is understood, is equally pleased with the trip, though the First Lord, like the other landsmen who have ventured on the expedition, has experienced some of the disagreeablee, if not the perils, of a seafaring life since his embarkation. It has been blowing hard, with a bitterly cold wind from the east. The morning of the start was especially unpleasant, but, nevertheless, Mr. Childers and his associates were determined not to be daunted, and took their places on the poop of the Agincourt at four a. m. The fleet steamed out of the road in regular proces sion, the flagship of course leading the van with the Admiralty ensign flying. It is said that this cruise supplies the only instance on record in which a British fleet has been commanded at sea bya First Lord in person. On Sunday Mr. Childers attended Divine ser vice under circumstances that must have been somewhat novel to him. The process of "rigging church . ' is a brief one. The fire buckets are placed on deck, and capstan bars laid from bucket to bucket, forming the seats for the crew, while the officers have their own chairs. The pulpit is put together by the carpenter in about two minutes, and a harmonium is contributed by the officers. Hymns are sung, and the sermon is short and practical. The fleet is composed of vessels of very varying size, armour plating, and horse-power. Their speed, too, is very different, and some of the faster vessels find it difficult to keep their appointed stations in the rear of their slower companions. The Duncan is the fastest ship, the St. George the slowest. The Trafalgar is the most venerable, having been launched more than thirty years ago as a three-decker, and since converted into a two decker, which greatly improved her sailing powers. ANOTHER ATLANTIC STEAM RACE, Another remarkable race of 3,000 miles has been run across the Atlantic by two screw steamers, in this instance belonging to the same line. Like the celebrated trial of the Russia and the City of Paris, accidental circum stances concurred in bringing about a simultaneous start of the vessels from New York, and not a pre arranged plan of racing. The City of Baltimore left New York with the mails for Queenstown and Liverpool on her regular day, Saturday, the 18th of May. A few weeks before another of Mr. Inman's splendid fleet, the City of Boston, met with an accident to her machinery when about to start, and the neces sary repairs having been made, was ready to start as an extra ship on the same day as the City of Baltimore. The City of Boston is about two years old ; the City of Baltimore is a much older vessel, being one of those which originally made the Inman line famous ; but within the last two years she has been fitted with new boilers and otherwise thoroughly repaired, so that she is in every re spect a first-class vessel. The City of Boston got away first, leaving her anchorage at 2.15 p.m. on the Bth, pass ing Sandy Hook at 3.55, and stopping at 4.15 to discharge pilot and examine the machinery. A few miles out side Sandy Hook, while she was thus stopped, the City of Baltimore, which had received her mails and passengers at New York at 2.2 G p.m., and proceeded on her voyage, passed her at 4.36. Four minutes afterwards the City of Boston was also under weigh full speed, and the two vessels were in company during the rest of the voyage as far as the Fastnet Rock, which lies off the south-east coast of Ireland, between Cape Clear and Queenstown. This point was passed by the City of Boston at 5.50 p.m. on Monday, the 17th of May, eighteen minutes ahead of the City of Baltimore, which passed at 6.8 p.m. The latter vessel called at Queenstown, the City of Boston did not, and this detour will account for the City of Baltimore arriving at the Bell Buoy at the mouth of the Mersey two hours and ten minutes behind her sister ship and rival or the time being. Mr. Reverdy Johnson left London for Southampton on TburEd.ty. The Liberals of Hereford on Wednesday celebrated the victories of November and March by a monster public demonstration, the working men of the city having sub scribed to present the Liberal members ousted on peti tions with some substantial token of respect. Messrs. Clive and Wyllie declined to receive anything of pecuniary value, and the presentations, therefore, took the form of illunCnated addresses, which were presented in the pre sence of several thousand parsons on A. platform erected in front of the Shire Hall. After the presentat'en the Liberal electors, to the numbt•r of about 800, assembled at a banquet in the music room and corridors of the ball. Colonel Clifford (who represented Ilercford for 18 years, up to 1865) pre sided, and was supported by the Von. Lord Sayo and Selo, Sir William Wyllie, N..C.8., Mr. Chandos Wren Hcskyns, M.P., Colonel Edward Clive, 31. P., Mr. M. Biddulph, M.P., Mr. Henry James, M.P., it Gilbert Frankland Lewis, Sit George Cornswall ; the late members, Mr. George Clive and Mr. J. W. S. Wyllie, the Mr. A. Clive, Rev. R. Underwood, Rev. W. Fowle, Rev. D. J. George, &c. The gathering war of a very enthusiastic character. 1 1 1 I litl) E DIT NO TICh.

The election of Mayor was fixed for twelve o'clock to-day at the Corporation committee's room. When the town councillors arrived they found the ex-Mayor, Mr. Daniel O'Sullivan, who came ho no this morning, in the chair. The mob rushed Lao the room insiAing on an adjOurnment to the Court House. A dreadful scene of disorder followed, re sulting in the Corporation being driven from the room by the followers of one of the candidates, air. David A. Nagle, in oppo,ition to the other candi date, Mr. William Hegarty. The election took place at the Court Houie, amidst tremendous tumult, Mr. O'Sullivan occupy ing the chair. The Chairman having made a long speech, the vote was then taken, wider the numbers were— For Mr. William Hegarty For Mr. David Augustus Nagle Majority in frvour of Mr. Ilegarty. The Chairman (Mr. O'Sullivan) gave his vote in favour of Mr. Hegarty, which in tde the mob furious against him (Mr. O'Sullivan.) SPORTING INTELLIGENCE—This Da/ .i.. MAN C HESTER MEETING —Tacs DA T.

Since the great demand for photographic lenses has diminished, an opportunity has been afforded for applying mechanical power with the greatest success, %, hereby the cost of these beautiful and must perfect instruments is reduced in price in some instances to as much as 20 per cent. In fact they are now no dearer than those of the test French or English makers. At the depot Atillaghan, 23A, New Bond-street, corner of Conduit-street, the patrons of the Derby may indulge their taste in the possession of a veritable Voigtliiuder at comparatively trifling cost. It is superfluous to say the quality is as ever matchless. RACING FIXTURES. .1 I rNE.
