In Miscellaneous Securities Telegraph Shares in request at improved prices. The suns of £5,000 in gold was taken to the Bank on Saturday. The committee on the Telegraphs Bill /resolved on Saturday that the standing .orders ought to be dispensed with, and that it should be permitted to proceed " on a clause being ins2rte I smuring to all existing telegraph companies, not having yet ar ranged with the Government, a right of arbitration (failing agreement) as to the value of their present rights b and privileges." The bill is to be read a second time on Tuesday next at two o'clock. Although the Senate at Lisbon have agreed to the bill for the new Portuguese Loan, the details of the measure have yet to pass under their consider ation. The question as to the parties by whom it will be introduced in London seems still to be un decided. The report of the General Credit and Discount Company (Limited), to be presented on the 26th inst., announces a steady increase in the company's business and connections, and recommends the usual interim dividend at the rate of 5 per cent. per an num. It adds as regards the claim of the company upon the London, Chatham, and Dover Railway there is now every prospect of a decision being ar rived at, but that the affair of the South-Eastern of Portugal Railway remains in an unsatisfactory posi tion, the Portuguese Government having, as was stated some months back, by an arbitrary act taken possession of the line, purposing to pay the railway company a sum of only about £528,000 for an expenditure (admitted and fixed by the Portuguese Ministry in October, 1867) of £1,212,318 of British capital, laid out for the ad vantage of Portugal, and in which no British capitalist would have engaged but for the reliance placed on the good faith of that country and on the large amount of direct assistance, by way of subvention or guarantees, which the Government covenanted to give to the enterprise. The report of the Metropolitan Bank (Limited), to be presented on the 15th instant, shows an available total of £12,161, including a previous balance of £5,842, and recommends a dividend at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum, leaving £7,161 to be carried forward. The deposts held are £381,331, and the paid up capital is £200,000. In the abstract given yesterday of the report of the Alliance Bank it was stated that the deposits held show a decrease of £212,626 from the corres ponding date of last year. The amount should have been only £25,033. It has been agreed by the Australian and New Zealand Banks (with one exception) to adopt and apply in future the re-exchange of 10 per cent. on bills returned dishonoured from those colonies, in stead of 20 per cent., the rate fixed about 30 years ago, and which has long been looked upon as little hum than nominal. A recommendation will con sequently be made by the next outward mail for all the colonial establishments to agree to a similar Charge in respect to dishonoured bills returned from England. This alteration has become essential from the short and regular mail service, the use of tele graphy, the altered condition of banking under in crease competition, and the enlarged facilities for business. Indeed the rapidly extending commerce of this country, from the advantages of steam corn nlunication with all parts of the world, seems to de 'nand that the question of re-exchange with other colonies and foreign countries should now undergo revision. There are 8 and 10 per cent. rates with the IVest Indies, 10 per cent. with the United States, and not less than 25 p er cent. w i th the South American Republics. At a meeting on Saturday of the creditors of Messrs 6 . L. flalliwell and Brothers, of Manchester, a com- Pa-sition of 9s. in the pound was agreed to-3s. in Cam, 3s. i n s i x months, and the remaining 3s. in twelve months.

On Saturday evening the universally esteemed and great popular favourite, Mr. Buckstone, took his benefit, and his host of admirers as usual availed themselves of the opportunity of making the closing night one of the most brilliant of the sea son. For sixteen years the theatre has been under the management of Mr. Buckstone, and during the whole of that long period, by his undeviating alle giance to the legitimate drama, he has not only brought each of his seasons to a successful close, but has increased jthe reputation of his theatre, which now stands unapproached for the production and representation of English comedy. The enter tainments commenced with a revival of Peake's comedy, " The Haunted Inn," Miss Bateman's new drama, " Mary Warner," the lessee's annual ad dress, and the capital farce, " A Dead Shot." The reception given by Mr. Buckstone when he came forward to deliver his address was enthu thusiastic, and when the cheering subsided he spoke as follows: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,—As I am now in the 17th year of my management of this theatre, and delivered as many addresses as there have been years of my lesseoship, I begin to feel at a loss what to say on these occasiona , except to refer to the p as t an l an ti c i pate the future. At the termination of last season I stated that the theatre would be thoroughly repaired en I decorated. This you will see has been done, and I hope to your satisfaction and that of the proprietors. (Cheers. I also stated that Miss Bateman would commence the present season with her famous impersonation of Leah. The promise was ful filled, and with such success that the play ran from Octo ber till Christmas, varied only by the production, for a few nights, of Dr. Mosenthal's "Pietra." (Cheers.) I also promised that Mr. Sothern would return at Christmas, which he did, producing shortly after that time Mr. Robertson's promised comedy of " Home," and which was performed for one hundre I and thirty-three nights. (Cheers.) On Mr. Sothern's departure for the East, not to Egypt on a visit to the Viceroy, but to Shoreditch, on a visit to ono Douglass— (laughter)—Miss Bateman again appeared before you iu the new play of " Mary Warner," sustaining a character which will rank with her popular " Leah"--(eheers)— and as that lady shortly departi for America, I am sure you will all wish her a safe an I speedy passage, more especially as at an early period she intends to return, and I hope to this the atre. Thus, ladies and gentlemen, you will acknowledge that all my promises have not been made of the proverbial pie crust, and that none of them have been broken, not even the promise that presented itself to me of a prosprous season, which I assure Tel has been a pleasant fact, and that I hope to sea again accomplished next year— (cheers)—but only with the aid of the legitimate perform ances of this house, in comedy, drama, and farce, without any attempt at unnecessary glitter, nor even with the allurement of the ballet, as the Lord Chavberlain's circu lar so alarmed me that I shall rarely venture on the at ractions of short skirts again. (Laughter.) Whether other managers will follow my moral example—l cannot say—l am afraid not. Since 1 last addressed you three new theatrestsve been built, and I believe successfully opened. How many more aro to spring up I do not know ; but, however numerous they may become, I feel assured that the little theatre in the Haymarket, as it has been affectionately called since the days of Foote, will be the last to suffer from any com petition whatever. We are an old-established house, bearing a good oharacter, and I hope occupied by a re .spectable tenant. (Much cheering.) With regard to the future, ladies and gentlemen, although our season terminates this evening, the theatre will remain open for a short time, as a supplementary one will be com menced under the auspices of Miss Amy Sedgwick, and which will be continued by Mr. Humphrey Barnett until the return of the Haymarket company in October. (Cheers.) But you must not suppose that we intend to remain idle, as we appear at the Theatres Royal, Liverpool, on Monday next; thence to Manchester, Bradford, Newcastle-upon- Tyne, Edinburgh, and Glasgow. You will thus see that laziness is not one of the faults of this company, or of its manager; indeed, I think with respect to that personage, you may say with Dr. Watts, "How doth the busy little B improve each shining hour." (Laughter and applause.) As I have been before you, ladies and gentlemen, so manyyears, I begin to fear that you will grow tired of my face. (No, no.) Many people, I know, aro not over fond of new faces, yet whenever I may find talent worthy of your acceptance I shall not hesitate to present it to you. But whether you may grow tired of my old face or not, while I continue hero I shall always endeavour, under any circumstances to put the best face on the matter. (Laughter and applause.) Early in October, ladies and gentlemen, we shall return to London, and open this theatre with a new and original comedy written by Tom Taylor, wh, has achieved so many sues on these boards ; and at Christmas Mr. Sothern will again appear in a new and original comedy written by Mr. Byron, and which comedy, if I am not mistaken, will run, if not for the whole season, at least for the greater part of it. (Cheers.) Dr. Westland Marston is also at work for this house, and with other attractions that I have in view, I still hope to merit your patronage. Now, ladies and gentlemen, I respectfully bid you fare well until October, and in the name of my company thank you for the good opinion you have always expressed of their abilities ; and as I know we shall all carry with us your good wishes, I can only in return wish you health, happiness, and prosperity, and say, for a short time, Good bye. (Cheers and waving of handkerchiefs, which con tinued for some minutes.) Mr. Buckstone's farce, " A Dead Shot," with the jun. B. as Hector Timid, sent the audience laugh ing home.

Two marriages of interest in the fashionable world have taken place to-day. The first was at St. Paul's, Knightsbridge, and was between Viscount Downs and Cecilia Maria Char lotte Molyneux, the daughter of the Dowager Countess of Sefton. The marriage of Viscount Cole, eldest son of the Earl of Ennis killen, with the neice of George Baird, Esq., 4, Grosvenor gardens, and Shill-hill House, Kelso, Roxburtshire, was solemnized at St. Peter's Church, Eaton-square. The newly-married pair left town this afternoon for the Continent. REFORMS IN FRANCE. PARIS, July 12 M. Rouher read to-day in the Legislative Body a message from the Emperor announcing some very extensive reforms. According to these re forms Ministers will be able to hold seats as me►n- bers in the Chamber of Deputies, the right of interpellation will be extended, and the power of the Corps Leg;slatiff in controlling the Budgets and commercial treaties which may be entered into by the Government will be enlarged. These reforms constitute a real ministerial re sponsihi;ity, and will be called into operation by a senatus consultutn, and not by a plebiscite. The Senate will meet shortly, but no change in e personnel of the Ministry will take place. CRIMINAL _COUR7'-(TIIIS DAY.) Tl.e July sessions of thiis court commenced to-day. There are 95 male prisoners and 23 females for trial. Two charges of wilful murder will be found in the calendar, std several cases of manslaughter. Urns of the most im portant trials as far as the public are concerned is that of Mr. Samuel G. Finney, the late manager of the English Joint-Stock Bank, fur having published a false and frau dulent balance -sheet with intent to defraud the share holders. After the Recorder's charge to the Grand Jury the court proceeded to try the usual mint cases, none of which possessed any public interest. POLICE INTELLIGENCE'. —?his Day. 31A BLBOROUGII-STREET. THE CABMAN AND ins FA.. E. —Ernest Blake, a young man of respectable appearance, who gave his address Southwick-street, Shepherd's Bush, and described himself as a clerk, was charged before Mr. D'Eyncourt with being drunk and wilfully breaking a pane of glass in Hansom cab 3,161. George Pink, cabdriver, badgo 16,206, said that about 10 o'clock last night the defendant hired his cab iu Bruton street, and told him to take him to any station of tho Me tropolitan Railway, he dil not care which, so long as the fare was only a shilling. While going along Bruton-stroot the defendant ordered him to let down the glasses, and then calling on him through the trap door to "drive like h - or --," and then pulled up the glasses in such a way as to imprison himself, and it took two of them to liberate him, one of the panes of glass being broken. The defendant refused to pay for the damage, and said ho was the son of a clergyman ; talked of his solicitor, and was very bounceable; and he then had him taken to the station-house, where ho was very impertinent to tho in- Spector, The defendant said it was all porfectly true. A constable said the defendant was not sober and rather violent. The defendant was fined ss, and ordered to pay is. 6d. the damage and de. costs, Sir.,---There will be plenty of sport this week. The Nottingham meeting will be celebrated on Tuesday and Wednesday. The Nottinghamshire Handicap has secured sixteen acceptances, and the horses best in are Ligurian, Tornado, Mexico, and Stork. Tornado, though a non-stayer, is bound to run well, as the course is easy, and so will Stork. Still neither of the pair looks so formidable as Mexico and Ligurian. Several fast horses have been nominated for the Bradgate Plate, amongst them Stork, Harebell, iEolus, Veda, and Clario nette. if reserve I for this event, Stork can barely be defeated. For the Stand Plate Prince Imperial, Riga, Problem, and Flying Jib, have not been overweighted ; and if Prince Imperial cin defeat Problem, Captain Machell's speedy colt may be hailed the winner. The Robin Hood Stakes (six furlongs) will end in a match between Cymbal and Scarbro' ; and as Green Riband may not put in an appearance for the Raiford Ab- bey Stakes Queen of Hearts will have an easy win ning task. Forty-seven two-yr-olds have been nominated for the First Biennial Stakes, and amongst them are Agility, Countryman Elferon, Detuidoff, Vibration, Elsham, The Boy, Hawthorn dale, Lady Sophia, Mount Pleasant, Master Walter, Scarbro', and Braemar. Of these the best are Agi lity, Countryman, Scarbr4 and Demidoff. There are 14 entries for the Clumber Park Stakes, but Roma has only Queen of Hearts to fear. The Southampton Meeting will take place on Tues day and Wednesday. There are twelve acceptances for the South Hampshire Stakes, and as Red Rice may not run, Captain Machell'a elected, Crown Princess or Silenus, will win. An indifferent lot of horses have been entere 1 for the Welter Handicap ; the best are Aintree and Viscount St. Albans. The Nursery Plate appears likely to be won by Soucar or Zerlina ; and the Cranbury Park Stakes by Fig leaf or The Mate. The Reading Meeting will be held on Thursday and Friday. Eleven horses stand in the Berkshire Handicap, and Master Willie has only to beat Chivalry for this stake to be won by Cliff's stable. In the Whitley Stakes April Morn and First Emperor are the pair most likely to pro duce the winner. For the Abbey Stakes (5 fur longs) 57 two-year-olds have been nominated, but the race will be confined to Green Riband, Haw thornden, Pate, and Cestus, as Prince Henry is amiss, and will not run. The Nursery Stakes ought to be won by Ironstone or Fancy Boy. , - td4ll - tt %*44,-ginc.g:7 t.„ (1 , 4 , y. 11,4,„ :1411 HER MAJESTY. WINDSOR CASTLE, July 11. Her Majesty, accompanied by Princess Christian, drove out yesterday afternoon. The Queen, accompanied, by their Royal High. nesses Princess Christian, Princess Louise, Prince Arthur, Prince Leopold, ani Princess Beatrice and the ladies and gentlemen in waiting, attended Divine service this morning in the private chapel. The Prince and Princess of Wales attended Divine service yesterday morning in the Chapel Royal, St. James's. CORBESFONDEECE riots PARIS. (molt oun aim COPP.ESPONDENT.) IPARIS, SONDAT, J u ly 11. The crisis—for even the Imperialists admit that there is crisis—still continues, and as yet there is no solution. The Chamber was not constituted for business yesterday ; but it is finally arranged that the election of secretaries shall take place to-morrow, so that the determination of the Emperor will probably soon be made known. There is much talk to-day of change in the Ministry; but the preponderance of rumour is at present in favour of M. Rouher retaining at least some share in the Government, and this will neither please the country nor settle the question. If the status quo is to be altered at all, the shelving of M. Rouher is indispensable. Some of the papers, I see, are prophesying that the Imperialists who have joined the noble Cott-seize, the band of 116, will be persuaded by the Emperor to withdraw their signatures, and the demand for Ministerial resspon sibility will be rejected in tote. The rejection is possible, and not improbable ; but the deputies who have already signed cannot well withdraw now. Moreover, I am assured by the leaders of the Reform party that the great majority of, if not all, the 116 will remain faithful. It may be as well to point out what are the exact im - . mediate changes in the constitution and government which will be required if the Emperor resolves to give way to the demand of the Moderate Liberals. Three articles of the Constitution, the sth, 13th, and the 4lth, will have to be altered. The sth Article provides that "The President of the Republic (the Emperor) is responsible before the French people, to whom he has right of appealing." The first part of this must be struck out, and the article will then provide only that the Emperor has the right of ap peal to the people. The 13th Article stipulates that the Ministers are dependent only upon the Chief of the State, there is no " solidarity " amongst them—that is, they do not stand or fall together, as the English Ministry gene rally does ; each is answerable only for the doings in his own department. This article will be altered so as to read simply that the Ministers are responsible. Article 44 provides that Ministers cannot be members of the Corps LFgislatif. This must be changed so as to admit the Ministers to be members both of the Corps IZgislatif and of the Senate, besides providing that they must seek re election when nominated to office. Such are the demands of the Left Centre as formulated by the Lit,erte, and they may be taken to represent the policy of the new party. Their effect will be simply that whereas now the Corps Ugislatif cannot discuss the Con stitution, cannot pass a vote of censure on the Ministry, and cannot exercise any direct control over the acts of the Administration, it will, if the programme of the Moderate Liberals be taken, have the power to do all these things. In short, though the Emperor will still reign, the Empire will be at an end. The more the situation is considered the more completely astonishing does it seem that such a crisis as this should have been brought about in so short a time. The position the Moderate Reformers have taken up has been most judiciously selected, and managed with . admirable tact. They might readily have chosen a pro • gramme which the Emperor could have accepted more easily, but such a course would have been perfectly useless. If the form of government is to be changed, it is only a considerable change that can be of any avail. Whether the present system be beneficial or injurious, it lis clear that the el»litioa of personal government is the only course by which it can be sensibly modified. It is much to be desired that the Emperor would come to a decision at once, for, in the present state of uncer tainty, the attitude of the Corps L6gislatif is becoming ra.113- '-. rnst an entlac zittlng has been devoted to the validation of tu-o or three eec tions which were not seriously contested. What will be the case - when the disputed returns--not one of which has yet been considered —c ome on for hearing? Thursday's sitting, as I mentioned, was stormy, but Fri day's was much more so. Three distinct uproars took • place.. First, there was the Guyot-Montpayroux row. M. Rouher, the day before, spoke of the necessity of raising a barrier against revolution, and the Marquis de Pied turned towards the Left with menacing gestures. M. Guyot Montpayroux said that the language of M. Rouher was of a kind which "we"—the Left—would not tolerate. The President told him that to say Ile would not tolerate this or that was improper. The excited deputy retorted that he expressed the sentiments of 20,000 free citizens, and that he would not be termed a revolutionist. Using rather warm language the President asked him to be moderate in his terms ; but M. Guyot Montpayroux would not be moderate, and finally M. Gamier-Pages created a tremendous storm by declaring that he gloried in the revolutions of 'B9, '3O, and '4B. Order was at length restored, and the Chamber got to business,but only to pre cipitate itself in another row, brought about by M. Ferry, the Red, declaring that all the elections of official candidates were null and void, and that the system, instead of being universal suffrage, was only hypocrisy. Row number three wasowing to M. Pelletan, who, in reply to a remark that the general election had sanctioned the coup d'etat, said that the coup d'etat was a crime. The Chamber from the beginning to the end of the sitting resembled a bear garden. Yesterday was moderately quiet, the sitting, which was a very long one, being devoted to a constitu tional discussion, the result of which was that it has been resolved to constitute the House to morrow. The Emperor is said to have made an important speech at the grand dinner at St. Cloud the other day. His Majesty, after listening to some observations from M. Buffet (close to whom were M. Brame, M. do Saint-Paul, and M. Louvet), replied in substance that the Government would not be found to persist in the state quo, but that it could not follow to the utmost limits the iniative of the Constitu tional Liberal party, He added, "I am firmly convinced that if I had ever to consult the nation, I should still have for me six. millions of votes." AGRICULTURAL NOTES. The Yorkshire Post gives a lengthened report of the pre sent condition and appearance of the crops, gathered from the accounts of some fifty correspondents. Many of these are resident in Yorkshire, and they are tolerably unanimous in their verdict on tho wheat, which they describe as back ward, irregular, and below the average. Oats, beans, and swede turnips promise wall. Clover and meadows are good, and the promise of winter supply of fodder for the cattle most satisfactory. The harvest throughout Yorkshire is expected to begin about the second week in August. From Cumberland and Durham the accounts are more encouraging. In the former county agriculture is said to be improving steadily, and the application of permanent artificial manures makes the farmer less do pendent on the weather than formerly. In Cheshire the wheat crop is said to look promising, but the barley is under the average. The oats, too, want warm weather. Winter beans in many places promise a luxuriant crop. The cold north-east winds are complained of in several quarters. Potatoes are generally favourably spoken of, but there are rumours of disease in parts of Gloucester, and it has been stated that the disease has actually made its appearance in the neighbourhood of Devizes. In Hereford and Mon mouth the fine weather of the last few days has produced beneficial effects, but in Kent and Hampshire matters are not so favourable. A farmer, of Wingham, Kent, reports that on the sands, gravels, and chalks there is not nn average crop, but the wheats promise the best. Hay and grass are abundant. All accounts agree in anticipating a late harvest, but most per. sons think it probable that two or three weeks of warm, fine weather, will greatly improve matters. The plentiful Supply of hay and winter fodder 13 likely to compensate in EOM degree for other deficiencies. The nuebets of Alencon, the daughter-in law of the Duke of Nemours, gave birth to a son on .niday at Bushy Palace. TLo Duchess is the sister of the Empress of Austria and the ex-Queen of Naples. A telegram from Great Yarmouth dates that a Danish seaman, named Jorenson, has been landed there from a Danish vessel, charged with having caused the death of a lad, one of his shipmates. The circumstances have been reported to the Danish Consul in London. The post of Sergeant -at-Arms to her Majesty has become vacant by the death of Mr. E. K. S. Macleod. The deceased gentleman was the fourth son of the late Major- General Nolme.n Macleod, C. 8., and Lady .&nna Macleod, tad SWIM 9# the loto Earl N Diountmorros. WESTMINSTER. A NOVEL APPLICATION.—A lady-looking woman, with a child in her arms, applied to Mr. Arnold for advice under the following curious circumstances. A lodger had left her house, taking with him the latch key, but leaving in the room a cat and kittens; she wished to know if she could demand a week's rent. Mr. Arnold—You had better distrain upon the cats. (Laughter.) Applicant—Destroy them, sir? (Renewed laughter.) Mr. Arnold—No, seize upon them. Applicant—l don't want to do that; but cannot I re cover a week's rent ? Mr. Arnold—l think not. Applicant then left the box. THAMES. A TURBULENT SEAMAN.—Robert Brown, a seaman, aged 39 years, was brought before Paget, charged with being drunk, disorderly, fighting, and violently assaulting Fre derick Barrington, police-constable, 215 H, in the execu tion of his duty. Tho prisoner has been recently discharged from the ship Berkshire, now lying in the Victoria Dock. He was drunk on Saturday and fighting with another man. The policeman, Barrington, attempted to remove him, and ad vised him to go home. He made a fierce attack on the constable, and completely disabled him. It required the united exertions of six or seven men to remove him to the station-house. He pleaded drunkenness, and did not know what he was about. Mr. Paget said if sailors came on shore they must be have !themselves, and not get drunk and attack persons without any provocation. A most unprovoked and brutal assault had been committed. Policemen had difficult and irksome duties to perform, and while performing these duties in a proper and impartial manner must be protected. He sentenced the prisoner to be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for two months. THE EARL OF WESTKOF.LAND AND HIS CREDITORS. —Four summonses came on to day at Chambers, before Mr. Baron arnwell, in reference to the Earl of Westmorland. Three of thorn had been taken out on the part of the Earl, for liberty to the sheriff of Northamptonshire to sell his property by private contract instead of public auction, and in a case of a new execution a public sale was preferred. The execution creditors asked for a sale by contract. It was stated that the property, other than that claimed by the dowager countess, would fetch about £3OO more than by public auction. The first execution was to Mr. Solomon for £3,000; the next by Messrs. Beyfus for £9,000 and upwards ; and the other executions would take, if any was loft. Mr. Baron Bramwell made the order for leave to sell by private contract, and as to the intorplea,der, matter, it was to stand over Until ALONSII. Beyfue'e issue was tried.
