Ihe sports at Epsom will interfere greatly with general operations this week. Already many mem bers of th e S tock Exchange and t h e pro d uce mar kets have left for the racas to-day. To-morrow, the Derby, will be the national holiday, and Friday, the Oaks, will draw a full attendance. The traffic return of the Great Western Railway of Canada, for the week ending the 21st instant, shows an increase of £656 over last year. A general meeting of the Madras Irrigation and Canal Company is to be held on the 31st instant. Some confusion having occurred, it may perhaps be as well to mention that it is not this company, but the East Indi a I rr i ga tio n and Canal Company, which has h a d it s cap it a l repa id t o it by the Indian G overnment. The sum in question, amounting, we believe, to £1,050,000, was transferred from the ac count of the India Office to the credit of the com pany on Wednesday last, and the payment to the shareholders began on Friday. An extraordinary meeting of the proprietors of the London and Brazilian Bank (Limited) will be held on the 3d of June, when formal resolutions Will be proposed in favour of the undertaking being Wound up voluntarily, and of the transfer of the business to a new bank.

A dividend is to be payable on the shares of the An glo-Mexican Mint Company on the 2 , 1 of June. The discount demand has been moderate both at the Bank and in the open market, and so far as ec'roniercial requirements are concerned the rate !flight gradually descend to nearly its former low point, But the market during the present year has not been and is not likely to be governed by the na ture of th ese requ i remen ts. The question is 84 nPly 'whether our people upon a return of buoy ancy in the p r i ces o f s t oc k s will a gain renew their da ily system of f ore i gn i nve st m ents, and whether the y , together with C;ontinental buyers, are pre- P ar ed to absorb th e m illi ons o f U n ited States bonds, the expected steady and continuous sale of which °°t ?titutes the reliance of New York financiers in `intaining the inflation which has so long been Witnessed on that side. 1vu , 4 . 11 e Brighton Railway traffic return, being for lastt li sun week, sho ws an i n crease of 45,004 over e year ; and the S ou th Eastern an increase of '"_)618. 11 It hag been decided that the New Consolidated - count Company shall undergo the process of Zic:lootary liquidation ; and it "has been arranged ~,,/ t Alt.

A SOLICITOR ROBBED OF BANK NOTES. — Mary Ann Brennan, a tall stout female, was charged before Mr. Tyr whitt with stealing from the person of Mr Frederick Dims dale, solicitor, of No. 18, Poultry, £6O in bank notes and some gold and silver, and a quantity of memoranda. Mr. Dimsdale said that he met the prisoner close to the Regent-circus, Piccadilly, when she accosted him. He told her to go away, but she followed him into Jermyn street, walking by his side for some distance. He got rid of her again, and she again came up to him and put her arms round him, and then put her hands into his pockets. Thinking there might be something wrong he put his hands into his pockets and missed from cne his purse con taining twelve £5 notes and £2 10s. in gold and silver. Mr. Tyrwhitt asked the prosecutor whether he was quite sober ? The prisoner—Ho was blind drunk. The prosecutor said he know what he was about. The prisoner ran away and he ran after her, and a constable fortunately stopped her. He noticed while the prisoner was near him that there were two men near, one on his right side and the other on the opposite side of the street, ned as soon as ho set off running after the prisoner one of the men caught his foot against his t 33 and threw him down. He got up again directly and ra❑ after the prisoner, and toll the ottslable that ho believed she had passe.i something to lie of the m..n. Police-eoustlible George Pike, C. 5 L, said ho onceha, L. prisoner, whose name Was Alitioney, aLd whose hus band was now undergoing seven years' penal se: vitudo, iu custudy at the 13.)w-street Pollce-court for picking pockets, and she was thou sentenced to three mouths' iniptisou- Mr. Tyrwhitt rental:tiled the prisoner. We aro requested by Mr. Pred,riek Dimsdale, of 18, Poultry, to state that he is nut the person prosecuting the woman Brunnan, and that the man using his name had done so most unwarrantably. TI LIMES. THE TRUANT HUSBAND.-Mr. Pelham, solicitor, applied on behalf of a Mrs. Elizabeth Blackbourn for a protection order to protect her goods, chattels, and money against her runaway husband, John Blackbourn, a fish portPr, who absconded on the 3d of August, 1866, on which day she charged him on a summons with threateuiag her, and whom she had not seen since. The applicant had six children living, the eldest 22 years of age, the youngest 10 years of age. She was married to her husband on the 2d of August, 1846, at the parish church of St. John, Wapping. Ho turned out to bo a very bad husband, and he was not only lazy, but also a drunkard. The principal support of her family rested on the shoulders of the wife, who had acquired a little property since her abandonment b, her husband. She did not know whether he was alive or dead. Mrs. Blitekbourn, a Lilly, rosy-faced woman, of resp3c tible appearance and good deportment, confirmed the statement of her solicitor, and said she wanted no assi3t anee from her husband, but sin required protection for her property and future earnings. The protection order was itt once grantt.d, and Mr. Pel ham said he should immed'ately register it in the White chapel County Court. WESTMINSTER. IMMINENT PERIL OF RAILWAY TILATELLERS.—Wm. M'Naughton, a boy of 14, was charged with throwing a brick at a railway train while, in motion with passengers. James Thompson, a constable of tho Metropolitan Dis trict Railway, said that at seven last night he was on duty on a waste piece of ground near Palmer's Village, West minster, and saw the prisoner throw some sand on au engine as it passed. Directly after this a railway train passed, and prisoner threw a brick, which struck one of the carriages, and then fell upon the mota!s, to the great danger of the passengers. The boy said nothing. His mother declared that he was not right in his head. Mr. Arnold—Then you should not let him out. Mother—l keep him in as much as I can. Mr. Arnold—You should keep him in altogether; he will kill somebody. Mother—My husband has been twelve weeks out of work. Mr. Arnold—That is no reason why this boy should throw bricks on to the railvray. He is remanded for a week. GREAT NORTHERN RAILWAY. An extraordinary general meeting of the proprietors of this railway was held to-day at the King's Cross Station, for the purpose of considering and deciding upon an agreement between the company and the Metropolitan Railway Company for the use of the Metropolitan Railway between King's-cross and Moorgate-street and the stations thereon.

The Orangemen of Ireland are well satisfied with their Belfast meeting. All the forces of Orangeism in a district where it flourishes were collected on Saturday and forreel, the most imposing demonstration in point of numbers since the commencement of the Defence agitation. The fact that Mr. Johnstone, M.P., was inducel to preside secured the attendance of the rank and file of the Orange Society, who, from feelings of jealousy, had kept away from other meetings. The meeting was chiefly composed of the working classes. Its numbers are differently estimated in the voluminous reports of the proceedings which appear in the local journals. The Express states that at the commencement there were about 15,009 present, but that after some time, when the workpeople were released from the mills, it received enormous accessions, and that it was ultimately computed at from 80,000 to 100,000. The number of tickets issued was 75,000, and one ticket was sufficient t 3 admit an Orange Lodge. Special trains broughtcontingents from a distance. From Monaghan and Londonderry 1,800 Orangemen came, under the command of Captain Madden and Mr. Archdall. When they entered the Botanic Gar dens the " brethren " put on their scarves and other insignia, and marched in military order to their places around the platform, which was profusely adorned with flags and banners. The meeting was optncd, of course, with the singing of a psalm and prayer. The chairman commenced the oratorical perf , rmances of the day with a speech, in which he referred to the Bangor procession in terms of satisfaction, and expressed the determination of Irish Protestants never to concede their rights to meet as Orangemen where and when they pleased to express their opinions. He characterised the Orange Institution as the noblest organisation ever devised by Protestants to main tain their cause and to carry out the spread of Bible Christianity. The chairman's observations kindled the enthusiasm of the meeting. Mr. John Thompson, D.L., high sheriff of the county of Antrim, moved the first resolution, which contained a pro test against Mr. Gladstone's bill, as subverting the Pro testant constitution of the country. Mr. John Guy Ferguson, Governor of the Apprentice Boys of Derry, seconded the resolution. He assured the meeting that the " mighty heart " of the body to which ho belonged was throbbing with one universal feeling of opposition to the spoliatory measure. Mr. William M'Cormick, an Episcopalian, vice-president of the Belfast Working Men's Association, and Mr. Joseph English, a Presbyterian working man, supported the resolution in speeches advo cating bold and determined action. Mr. Adam J. Macrory, president of the Presbyterian Constitutional Association, moved in a long speech the next resolution, which asserted the right of the Presbyterian Church to a con tinuance of the Regium Donum. The Rev. Dr. Baylee seconded the resolution. The meeting was also addressed by Messrs. Alexander Sims, W. Wallace, Rev. J. D. Crawford, Rev. H. Henderson (Presbytirian), and others in support of resolutions urging the Lords to cast out the bill, and adopting a petition to the Queen against it. The meeting was orderly, and passed off without creating any disturbance iu the town, its political excite ment being allowed to expend itself in the cool seclusion of the Gardens. FURTHER DOINGS OF 'S. THE SPIRIT. RAPPER A few days ago we reprinted the evidence adduced at a recent meeting of the Spiritualism Committee of the London Dialectical Society. The following narrative is in addition to what we then published : Mr. John Jones, of Enmore Park, South Norwood, gave an account of a séance which had been held at his house in July last, as follows:—"It was on Friday, July 17th, about text o'clock, in a room sixteen feet by thirty-four, two gas burners alight. In the room was a heavy 100 table, around which were ten chairs, seven occupied. The other three chairs were meant to repre sent my late wife, my daughter Marian, and my son Walter. I had placed en my wife's chair her last silk dress, on my daughter's the flannel robe she wore before passing away, and en my son's chair his necktie. I was trying to think of some tune to get us into a state of har mony, when suddenly my thoughts were anticipated ; my accordion began to emit sounds, and a most jubilant tune was brilliantly played. Bright lights, like stars, were seen moving up and down the keys during the hymn of praise. The accordion then gently rose in the air about four inches, and floated three feet round the table. A hymn was sung by my family, and then my aged mother was raised from the floor in her chair until her knees were on a level with the table top. My late wife's bonnet was raised from the vacant chair, and car ried to my daughter Edith. My late wife's chair then rose in the air with the dress on it, and leant upon my mother's breast. The chair then floated back to its place. The dress on the chair began to pass over and moved on my mother's knee. Then toy deceased daughter's chair moved round, with ti:e robe eN tf mled on it, close to the table, shoved my chair an ay, and .he chair and I were forced aside to make room for la-es. lier chair then went from the table, j assed by the tear of my chair, no ionnan being toneldi,g it. Sinniltantously Mr. Home was ccer:cd b 0.10 3, away from the tz , b!e. It then proceeded to occupy the space vacated by I\lr. lloine, and gradually, and in sight of all prestat, r, se up in the air. Mr. Jones also said that he had on li,ore than one occasion seen a large 100 table he was sitting at, at his mental wish, rise front the flour as high as the ceiling." Mrs. ]ton croft eated that in July 1S(10 she had seen tie apparition of her husband. "I was lying," she said, " on the sofa, at about six and SCYCllo'clock in the evening, perfectly awake, and not thinking at all about my husband, when I heard three distinct knocks at the door. Thinking it must be one of the waiters, I said Come in,' and my husband, who had been dead five years, entered, dressed in the morning dress prescribed for British consuls—a blue coat, with Victoria buttons, a straw-coloured waist coat, and a white hat, such as be always used to wear in the summer. He had also a walking stick, with a chamois horn handle. I jumped up and advanced towards him. He then went into the next room ; an-i when I had recovered myself sufficiently to follow him he was gone." In answer to questions, this lady stated that she was unable to say how long the apparition lasted ; she had every reason to believe that her husband was poisoned on board a ship ; the door actually opened when she said " Come in ;" the door was not open when the apparition disappeared. Miss A. Jones gave an account of certain remarkable phenomena which she had witnessed at a séance held at Stockton House. Mr. Home, who was present, said that he was ill, the spirits were in him, and did not understand him. She saw a bodily form above his shoulders, and it took the form of a ccne. lie went out on to the verandah, and was carried from thence right across the lawn, a distance of more titan a hundred feet, to a rhododendron bed. He returned, bringing with him a piece of rhododen dron, and although it teas raining fast he was not at all wet, and the soles of his shoes were dry. He had observed on going out that they would each have a different perfume given to them, and accordingly, as soon as he was gone, it seemed as if each one present had been sprinkled with a different kind of sc nt. This closed the velenee for that evenirg. SID END OF A CENTE/' Old wiffrran ,supposed to be 103 years of a; e is reperted to have died at 1 r stol. She caught her dre scn fire while sifting ashes, and was so much frightened and injured that she soon afterwards died. ROYALTY AND TILE EARLSWOOD ASYLUM.—HiS Royal Highness the Prince of Wales has kindly con sented to lay the first stone of the enlargement of the Earlswood Asylum for Idiots, lledhill, Surrey, on Mon day, the 28th of June, and the annual fete and summer entertainment will take peace the same clay. Ladies desirous of obtainine ynrsoa to be presented to his loyal Highness the Prince of Wales and laid upon the first stone will be supplied on early appro%tion. Each five guineas collected will entitle to a life vote. THE LATEST VRLOCIPEDE.—BOUDd to be ahead of the world in everything, the Californians are in glee over a new invention in velocipedes. The four-wheeled machine is comfortable, the three-wheeled more convenient, the bicycle seems to need a marvel of skill and confidence to manage, but a resident of San Francisco has inverted a one wheeled velocipede, which he claims is as easily balanced, longitudinally and laterally, and more easily worked than any of the others. The only improvement left would be to go without wheels—but that would be returning to first prin ciples, and so will hardly be patented.—New York Times. NEWS FROM IRELAND.—The following budget of news from Ireland is published farmer named Dunphy, of Waterford, was visited on Saturday by men with blackened faces, who threatened him with something serious if he did not give up land in his possession. —The police at Cork are beginning to stir about the Fenians, and have commenced a search for nuns end documents. Under a warrant from the Lord-Lieutenant they searched the house of Patrick Bymes on Sunday, but found nothing but a report cf the speech delivered from the prisoners' dock by the Fenian G eneral Burke. Byrnes was one of the speakers at the late mass met ting.—John Francis Kearns, one of the Fenians recently liberated, has become a lunatic, and has been placed in the Cork Asylum.—Con stable Crowley, who was wounded at the recent dis turbances at Ballyheigne, is getting worse. O'Hara is dying in the infirmary at Cork, and Dunne is not expected to live very long.—Several burglaries were committed in the city of Cork and neighbourhood during the past week. The new Mayor attended the Bridewell on Sun day, and discharged three men and two women, prisoners for drunkenness; and at the police-court on Monday he declared his firsts detenuination to put down disorderly il9lNbligta 3 • THE GENERAL ELECTIONS IN FReINC. PARIS, MON4AT. The calm whieh prevArtea throughout the capitaktes terday has not been broken to-day. The elections are passing off in the most pacific manner. The French do not like agitation in wet weather—a shower of rain would at any time prevent an insurrection in Paris—but here to-day the weather is splendid, and yet there is no agitation. Save that Paris is covered with bills, that the newspapers are doing an excessive trade, and that a small crowd is assembled round some of the balloting places, there are no signs that an alteration is going on—certainly none of the signs which ordinarily attend a contest in England. The newspapers prosper in these exciting times. The sale of the Liberal journals especially is something incredible,and even the semi-officials are attaining a circulation which they will never reach again until the next general election. The reason of this sale is not very apparent, for the papers contain less now than at any future time. Whilst the Ballot is doing its work they must perforce be content with exhortations to the elec tors to vote on the right side. The billstickers are not less busy then the journalists. Nothing can be more impartial than their labours. They patronise all the candidates alike, and no aspirant to legislative honours can apparently afford to do without them. It has been reckoned that the various candidates for the Seine depart ment, that is for the city of Paris, have issued 150,000 bills —an average of 3,003 to each. Of course many of the fifty who professed to come to the poll will receive no votes and have accordingly spent very little money. To avoid inconvenience, the voting places have been multiplied as much as possible. They are established in the halls of the Mairics, or other convenient buildings belonging to the State or the City of Paris. In each bureau are seated a president, and two assessors on his right and left ; and before the latter are placed registers containing the names of the electors. The urn stands in the centre of the table ; being,in fact, a wooden box with double padlocks, having a slit in the lid, through which the voting ticket is introduced. As each bulletin is deposited, the president, after a verification in the registers, tears off the corner of the card which had been handed to him, and says, " M. So-and-So has voted." In general very few groups were formed, the voters departing at once after depositing their bulletins. Nobody is admitted to this room except the voter; but it is easy for outsiders to see all that is going on. Very few sergents• do-rifle are employed in guard ing the voting places, nor does there appear the slightest need for them. The mode of voting varies considerably in different districts. At Montmartre the electors come in very slowly one by one at intervals of two minutes ; whereas at the Batignolles the stream is continuous, and in Quartier of the Epinettes the eagerness to vote is very remarkable. But in all cases the business was conducted with the most unexceptional quietness. The same is reported by telegraph from the departments. The voting, we are told, is far more general than on previous occasions, but nowhere is there any disturbance. 'The electors then have behaved irreproachably, but the same can scarcely be said, if report speaks truly, of the authorities. In the first place, the electors on the last two occasions have claimed the right of sealing the ballot-box with their private seals in addition to the seals affixed by the president and assessors. This year the privilege has been denied, and much discontent has been awakened. It is noteworthy that last night, at eleven o'clock, M. Thiers, accompanied by his friends, went to the Mairies of the 17th arron dissement and demanded to sea the ballot-box. It was shewn him, and he carefully examined the *.e.terior to assure himself that the box had not been tampered with. The Maire, who was not present when this was done, is very angry. He considers M. Thiers's conduct an insult, but then the authorities should not, in the first instance have forbidden the electors to exercise the privilege which they enjoyed in former years. The Temps enumerates several arbitrary acts of the officials in the provinces, and no doubt the authorities in the country districts will not forget the experience of former years. But in Paris the Opposition istoo watchful COMPLETION OF THE UNION PACIFIC RAILWAY. Some exciting scenes took place during the last days of the great work by which a railway has been thrown across the American continent from the Atlantic to the Pacific seaboard. The enterprise was carried on by two companies, the " Central Pacific" working from California to the East, and the Union Pacific crossing the Missouri into the desert from the West. These two companies were by no means friendly, and for some time past the squabbles and lawsuits in which their rivalry found vent seem to have scandalised even the fnanciers of New York. According to the Times corre spondent, this rivalry endured to the last, and prevented the juiect:on of the two lines for several weeks. "1 he roadinakers of each company wiaked like heroes to extend their lines. 'The more iuiies of road, cheaply built, the more bonds there would be, and the more Proet. The gradiog parties of each line met weeks ago, but they did not join. The companies did not love each other, so they turned the cold shoulder and passed by, and, each working on, for fifty-three miles the two roads were graded parallel to each other. Here was an excellent chance for trouble, and it came. Each road followed its surveys ; they ran into each other, and so did the roads, and so did the labourers, and so did clubs and stones. The roads were nearly always in sight of each other, sometimes but a few yards apart, and once they crossed. The labourers dug out each other's embankments, and filled up each other's cuttings ; they cursed and fought and fired blasts without giving notice, so that a small earthquake, followed by a shower of d6bris, would greet the opposite party. Happily no human being was killed, but several mules were, and finally each party sent to headquarters for firearms for protection. They worked and fought on, building their roads side by side, delaying the junction and completion of the line until the managers concluded that the proceedings were too costly, and there was a compromise at Washington, which was speedily telegraphed to the Plains and restored peace • there. By the compromise the Central Company abandoned its own graded line and took the Union Com pany's line. The track was laid on the latter. The Union paid the expense, and gets the Government bonds for fifty-three miles. Bonds were at the bottom of the whole trouble." The Bth of May was fixed for the formal junction, but owing to fu:ther difficulties it did not take place until the 10th. On that day the Pacific Railway was com pleted, and the project which was deemed a visionary scheme three years ago became an accomplished reality. All over the country the event was celebrated by bell-ringing, cannon-firing, processions, and oratory of the true American type. At noon, on the 10th, the last spike was driven in, every stroke of the hammer being announced by telegraph in every telegraph office of the States. " There were prayers and speeches, Te Deums ' and Hail Columbias,' Old Hundredths' and 'Star-spangled Banners ; ' and of every incident as it happened all Americans were informed M the instant. Promontory Point signalled to New York, Chicago, San Francisco, New Orleans, Washing ton, &c., with the comprehensive salute, 'To every body ! Keep quiet.' By-and-by came another an nouncement of the beginning of the ceremonies— ' Almost reedy : hats off. Prayer is being offered.' Then came a pause, during which the electrified 'everybody' was charitably supposed to be pray leg. This little task, however, was soon completed; for the next message was, We have got done praying. The spike is about to be presented.' By-and•by came warning to look out for three taps on the bell, as the final blywo tin the splice were to be given. Then the hammer of the magnet tapped the bell, one, two, three, and at 2.47 Promontory Point triumphantly flashed the concluding message, Done.' A tie of polished Cali. fornia laurel, bound with American silver, and a spike ca Californian gold mark the place of union at Promontory Point, near Salt Lake, Utah." A diocesan conference, summoned by the Arch. bishop of York, opened at Sheffield on Monday. Amongst the subjects of discussion is set down the question of " how to attach the working classes to the Church." His Grace held an ordination at Sheffield on Sunday. The 34th West York Rifle Volunteers, who have been encamped at Woodsome-park during the past week, were inspected on Saturday by Lieut.-Colonel Wombwell. In the course <f his remarks at the close of the proceedings, the inspecting officer expressed himself strongly in favour of occasional camp life, as cr.ablir.g volunteers to get an insight into the duties that might be required of a soldier. At the ShefliLld sessions on Saturclay thirtcen colliers were indicted for having riotously assembled at Mexbro' on the 11th April. The charge arose out cf what is known as the Dent.by Mein lock-out. The men were engaged undera mouth's notice, end tie pi oprietors having resolved to discon tiutto the en Voyn cut cf union seen, terminated the ngagement with their Lands on the usual notice, and set on non-unionists. 'The charge against the pri s,.ners then was that they on the day named riotously assembled and endeavoured to prevent the non-unionists from following their lawful employment. The juryroturned a verdict against the accused, when the Court exercised its discrimination in dealing with the men, and ordered «' illiam Birkinshaw, Bowers, and Hodson to be bound over 111, their recognisances to keep the peace for three months ; Martin Birkinshaw was sentenced to three months, John Taylor and Samuel Tye to six weeks, and Calligan, F Fulw9o Johnson, ,onglptt ora, faci J ap: 1 1 74 ,4•Dr - rzi tN is NOTICh.

Since the great demand for photographic lenses has diminished, an opportunity has been afforded for applying mechanical power with the greatest success, whereby the cost of these beautiful and most 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 hest French or English makers. At the depot Aallaghan, 23e, New Bond-street, corner of Conduit-street, the patrons of the Derby may indulge their taste in the possession of a veritable Voigtliinder at comparatively trifling cost. It is superfluous to say the quality is as ever matchless. 7 1XT ii R ES. • Newcastle 22, 23, 24. lOdiham 22 Bibury Club 23 1 Stockbridge 24, 25, 26 New Forest Hunt (Lyndhurst) 28 IChelmsford Liverpool Summer 29, 30 Sutton Park .....`29, 30 LY IDown Royal Corpo. l4 Airdrie 15 Reading. 15, 16 1 Koutsford 16 ilinutingdon 2O, 21 Stamford 22, 23 Goodwood 27, 28, 29, 30 UST.
