English wheat being in very short supply, no fur ther decline is quoted. The sum of £22,000 in gold was taken to the Bank on Saturday, including 10,000 sovereigns from South America. The Californian gold bars which a few days ago arrived at Southampton by the steamers Donau and Bremen came to New York by the Pacific Railroad. They were delivered in London within 20 days from the time of their despatch from San Francisco. The confidence generally entertained in the gra dual consolidation of a steady Government in Spain continues to be strengthened by the prospects of the harvest in that country. The accounts from all parts seem favourable. The most rapid redistribution of races ever wit nessed seems likely to occur during the present generation in the influx of Eastern people to the We,tern States of America on the Pacific. Daring the year 1866 the arrivals in California from China and Japan were 2,300, in 1867 they were 3,300, and in 1.868 they were more than 10,000, while this year they are expected to exceed any previous total. An association of leading politicians has been formed to encourage the immigration, and it is proposed to introduce these people also into the Eastern section of the United States, a house in Chicago having, according to report, sent out an agent to China to contract for 50,000 to work the. Southern plan tations. It is the completion of the Pacific Rail road that affords facilties for these plans, and an idea appears to be entertained that " during the next three years the increase of Chinese population will be limited only to the means of transporta tion." Their value as labourers is becoming greatly appreciated, and instead of persecuting them the disposition is now to meet their views and afford them protection. They are supposed to hoard their sped and it is anticipated •' to get up a savings bank which wi l secure their confidence." The importation of Chinese women is attended to, and 1,250 were lauded in San Fran cisco on the 20th of last mouth. With regard to the relative conduct of Chinese and Irish or Ame rican labourers, the Sacramento Union contrasts the mode in which the portion of the Pacific Railroad on the California end, where Chinese were chiefly emplyed, was constructed with that which distin guished the other parts. That paper says :—" We believe it is now generally conceded that the work on the California end of the Pacific Railroad has been conducted with far more regularity and good order, if not dispatch, than on the Union Pacific. The feat of laying down ten miles of rail in one day last week astonished the Union Pacific mana gers. It is also a fact that the labourers on this end have been much better behaved and disciplined than on the other end of the road. We do not re call to mind a single death by wanton violence on the line of the Central Pacific during the past year, while hardly a day has passed at the other end of the road without some murder or other atrocity. We think a great deal of this good order and absence of violence is fairly attributable to the naturaldocility of the Chinese race, who have composed a great part of the force on the Central Pacific. Doubtless much of it is due to the rule which excluded ardent spirits ; but not all. The Chinese have honestly won a compliment for good order, sobriety, and good work, which ought to shame those white ruffians who are in the habit of traducing their morals at the same time they are murdering each other." A report is current that an important decision has been come to between the British and Portu , • guese Governments bearing on the wine duties and the general tariff question. The suspension has been announced of Messrs. George Smith and Sons, of Preston, cotton spinners and manufacturers. As the house had been esta blished in Lancashire nearly half a century, and enjoyed fair credit, the liabilities are supposed to be large. They employed about 200 operatives, while the firms of Messrs. R. and W. Jackson and Air. Bourne, which have also stopped, employed about 300 each, making a total of 800 thrown out of employment. The suspension has been announced of Messrs. Buck and Watkin, engineers and toolmakers, of Halifax. The liabilities are stated at £10,431, with assets for £9,725, and it is expected the estate will realize over 18s. in the pound. BRITISII FUNDS—TWO O'CLOCK. ~ UOVEUNMENT FUNDS. 6 per Cent.

It was expected that this session would be a mere formality—devoted to nothing more serious than the verification of the deputies' powers, and involving nothing more troublesome than a few rows over some of the prefects' sharp practices. But impatient France will not wait. The cry for change has gone out, and all parties are now busy less with verifying powers than with bracing themselves up for the great constitutional battle which looms in the distance. The interpellation of the Tiers-Parti, Left Centre,or Constitutional Liberals—which. ever name the moderate Reformers may finally choose- --is becoming a great fact. One hundred deputies have already signed the demand for liberty to question the Government on its domestic policy with a view to securing the more efficacious control of the country in its own affairs. This success has surpassed the most sanguine expectations of the Moderates. We first heard that seventy, then eighty, and filially that ninety deputies would join this movement in favour of constitutional government. A hundred have already signed, including several Imperialists, and in particular M. Nogeut Saint Laurens. Altogether the Libertd is sosanguine as to believ.L. that the interpellation will receive the support of not less than 150 deputies—a clear majority of the Chamber. A meeting was held yesterday at the Palais Bourbon of most of the deputies who have appended their signatures to this demand. More than eighty were present, and the proceedings lasted three hours. The object of the meeting was to decide upon the reforms which the Third Party was to pronounce for. The more advanced of the reformers went in for drawing up a list of all the changes needed—aboli tion of official candidates, establishment of Ministerial responsibility, the election of maires by the municipal councils, & - .c. Another section, however, preferred to do one " thing at a time, and to take the most important question first. Let us obtain the responsibility of the Ministers to the representatives of the people, they argued, and the rest will be easier." This course was strongly supported by M. Emile 011ivier, amongst others, and was finally adopted, only six voting for the plan of submitting the reforms en bloc. It seems almost impossible to believe that an interpella tion so supported as this is could be rejected. Indeed the only chance of its being rejected is by preferring another, which is now being signed. The Imperialists are turning Reformers, and are coming out with their interpellation. They evidently see that great changes are coming, and that they might as well have the credit of them as be left out in the cold, whilst the honour of reform is carried off altogether by the Left Centre. M. du Miral, one of the Vice-Presidents of the Corps Ldgislatif, has, therefore, drawn up the following demand :—" We, the undersigned, wish to interpellate' the Government as to the necessity of strengthening the institutions of the Empire by developing the action and powers of control of the Corps Legislatif by means of-1. The restoration of the address. 2. A more liberal and practical organisation of the right of interpellation. 3. An extension of the right of amend ment. 4. The election by the Corps L6gislatif of its President and Vice-Presidents." These reforms are of less magnitude than those which would be supported by the Moderate Liberals ; but still they are reforms, and con sidering that they are being advocated by aVice-President of the Chamber, and a number of the Emperor's firmest supporters, one conclusion only can be formed. A change in the system of government is inevitable. Indeed, what with the Imperialists, who have got up this interpellation, the Moderates, who have signed that got up at M. Brame's, and the extreme Radicals, who will support anything calculated to give annoyance to the Government, the Reformers of all shades are a vast majority in the House. The last two sittings of the Chamberhave been occupied with an exciting debate, in which the honours fell to M. Jules Simon. The reporter of M. Justin Durand's elec tion in the first circumscription of the Pyr6mses Orientales had taken it for granted that the validity of the return would be admitted as not giving rise to any serious objection. But the Government deputy—for M. Durand was an official candidate—was wofully disappointed in thinking that be could secure his seat thus easily. On Friday M. Jules Simon made his appearance with an immense collection of documents under his arm, and forthwith he went to work to prove that M. Durand's election was null and void. His bundle of documents contained nothing less than numerous charges of corruption, substantiated by many witnesses, and were so serious, he argued, as to demand, at least, delay and a profound examination of the means by which M. Durand secured his return. The revelations of M. Simon were, indeed, a curious story of the doings of an official candidate in the provinces. The voters had been both intimidated and bribed. One local paper actually threa tened that all the electors who voted for M. Emmanuel Arago, the Liberal who opposed M. Durand, should be transported to Cayenne. Votes were bought for five and ten francs each. Open house was kept, at which the free and independent electors were supplied with meat, wine, &c., ecc., gratis. Yes terday these revelations were continued by Jules Simon, amid tremendous excitement, the Left making the utmost of their great opportunity, and the Right fairly unable to meet the facts. There was no help for it ; the corruption had been of the grossest character, the election could nut be pronounced valid, and it was accordingly sent back to the committee to be inquired into again. It is said that the Emperor will agree with the opinion of most of the Chamber that the functions of deputy cannot fairly be exercised by one of his own personal servants. lie, therefore, will leave his chamberlains to decide whether they will choose to keep their seats in the Corps Ugislatif or remain in his service. Mr. John Stuart Mill, who has been in Paris some little time, has had a narrow escape. He was assailed with a sharp attack of cholera, but a remedy was had in time, happily, and your illustrious philosopher is now safe. It has been said that the Empress will not go to the opening of the Suez Canal, but the Patrie comes out with the announcement that her Majesty positively will go, leaving Corsica for Constantinople, and then to Egypt.

MIDSUMMER SNOW DRlFT.—Three sheep were found buried in a snowdrift last week in one of the re cesses of the mountain High Street, in Westmorland. They were recovered alive. Snow was still lying in some of the shaded parts of Skiddaw last week. THE GAME SEASON.—The weather having been unfavourable during the hatching season it is feared that there will be a scarcity of partridges and pheasants iu Norfolk. The damp and cold of June caused many nests to be completely spoiled. HERR ANGYALFI'S CONCERT.—This talented vo calist gave a very excellent concert at the Queen's Con cert Rooms, on Thursday evening, and althcugh some of those who had undertaken to appear failed to keep their appointments, yet their places were excellently sup plied, and neither Herr Angyalfi nor the audience had rea son to regret their absence. Concert singers care little for the embarrassment they often occasion concert givers by not fulfilling their engagements ; and if the disappoint. ing artistes were to meet with a manifestation of dissatis faction at their conduct when next they appeared in public their self- importance would be considerably lessened. Miss Rose Hersee sang very nicely Benedict's Carnival de Venise, and the giver of the concert, although labouring under the effects of recent Maws, sang with Mr. Nelson Varlef Cooke's celebrated duo, "Love and War," with excellent effect. He possessed a very full and powerful bass voice, and appears to be an excellent musician ; so that doubtless we shall have further Opportunities of hear ing him. There was a very fine duo for violin and piano, by Wolfe and Vieuxtemps, performed by Herr Lehmeyer and Mr. Lane, and altogether the full and fashionable audience could not but have felt gratified at the entertain ment provided for them.

STEALING CORN.—A STRANGE DEFENCE.—DanieI Beckett, a carman in the employ of Mr. Bayley, market gardener, of Chiswick, was charged before Mr. D'Eyn court with stealing two bushels of corn from Mr. Wm. Freeman, of Alridge's Horse Repository, St. Martin's-lane. A foreman in Mr. Freeman's employ, named ;Morgan, having reason to suspect the prisoner, who was in the habit of coming for the manure, watched him :that morn ing, and saw him put 2; bushels of corn in a basket, and as soon as he saw that he was detected ho emptied the corn into the dung-hole. The prisoner pleaded guilty, and said ho took the corn to give to his employer's horses. Mr. D'Eynoourt asked the prisoner whether Mr. Bayley did not allow hini corn for his horse ? The prisoner said ho did allow some. Mr. D'Eyucourt said that acting on the assumption that the prisoner took the corn to give to the horse, he should only commit him for 6 weeks, although he was afraid that the prisoner intended to sell it. THAMES. THE GAMBLING NUISANCE.—This day the usual gang of juvenile gamblers were brought before Mr. Benson for playing at pitch and toss on Sunday. Some were playing at halfpence, and others were playing at " put," cribbage, all fours, and a mongrel game called " all fives," in which "every five" is counted. Mr. Benson—ls it possible the spirit of illegal games is carried on so far as to permit the infamous practice to be carried on in the streets on the Sabbath morning ? The police said it was, and that the gambling was ac companied with fighting, swearing, and blasphemy. The boys said they were only looking on. Mr. Benscn said the police saw some of the prisoners with coins and others with cards in their hands. It was a most infamous practice, and should and must be put a stop to. The parents of tho boys vindicated them. Mr. Benson—The parents are worse than their children. In many cases out of the small earnings of their children they have given them money to go out mad gamble with other boys. The parents ought to be punished with their sous. Mr. Bensonit hen read the now Act of Parliament, and sail he should have to sentence boys three months' imprisonment and hard labour before he could put a stop to this. He sentenced three of the boys, who wore under 14 years of age to six days' imprisonment and hard labour. If any o: the prisoners were ever charged with a similar offence before him and it was made out he should pass a more severe sentence without regard to age. NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. Rear-Admiral G. Wellesley hoisted his flag pro tem. on Friday on board her Majesty's ship Excel lent at Portsmouth, under the customary salutes, as Commander-in-Chief of her Majesty's ships on the North American Station. It was subsequently transferred to the Revenge, and hauled down at sunset, the Admiral going on leave. The unarmoured plated screw ship Revenge, in charge of Capt. Moriarty, Assistant Master Atten dant of Portsmouth, arrived at Spithead on Friday afternoon from Plymouth. She went iuto Ports mouth harbour in the evening, and was on Satur day commissioned by Capt. R. Wells as temporary flagship of Rear-Admiral lx. Wellesley for the Royal Alfred. A number of the officers and men have already joined, and the Revenge will shortly leave, returning with the officers and crew of the Royal Alfred to be paid off. The troopship Crocodile, Captain G. Watson, arrived at Spithead yesterday morning from Hali fax with troops, comprising the 4th battalion of the 60th Rifles, under the command of Colonel R. Hawley, and a battery of the Royal Artillery. She will come into Portsmouth Harbour this morning, when the troops will disembark and proceed to Aldershott and Woolwich. His Danish Majesty's screw steam corvette, Thor, Capt. Stnit, left Plymouth Sound on Satur day afternoon for the West Indies.] The Duke of Cambridge, as Field-Marshal Com manding-in-Chief, held a levee on Saturday after noon at the Horse Guards. Nearly 150 officers attended. Navigating Sub-Lieut. E. H. Cunningham was tried by court-martial on Friday, in Hamoaze, for playing cards with Mr. Ross, an invalid midship man, in the saloon after the lights had been reported out, he being officer of the watch at the time. Capt. G. J. Napier presided, and Mr William Eastlake, Deputy-Judge-Advocate of the Fleet, officiated. The prisoner admitted his guilt, and was adjudged to be severely reprimanded, and to be discharged from his ship, the Himalaya. MARKE7 S-2 His DAY. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET. • July s.—Sales probably 10,000 bales. The market steady. 7 :IE INTERNATIONAL RACES. Mr. John Gordon Bennett, vice-commodore of the New 'York Yacht Club, sailed from that port last Saturday in the Dauntless fn. Havre. He has challenged the C'ambria to start from Cowes for New York against the Ilaurit! , 23s on the let Septem ber ; but if Mr. Ashbury deeltne, the invitation is .•open to any yacht-owner of auy loyal Club, with out restriction of tonnage. This is the first action taken to bring together the men and boats about to engage in the international contests, of which perhaps the most interesting of all will be the boat race between the Universities of Oxford and Harvard. The Pall Mall Gaz.elle thus cautions the Americans against their style of training : " The system of practice at Harvard seems to be to row daily about i miles out without `an easy,' then they turn, and row home in similar style. This is similar to the barbarous but long-exploded system of English amateur training in the dark ages. Ex cept when engaged in a formal trial over the full course a training crew should be stopped every five minutes to enable the men to keep fresh and cor rect faults, which cannot be done when in distress." Touching the victory of the Canadian coxswainless crew in 1867 at Paris, which prompted this chal lenge, the Pall Mall says :—" 1. The Americans carried no dead weight. 2. They were inside of ten boats, with the lee station in a hurricane, the Etonian Club the very outside of the ten with the whole river to cross before they could gain shelter— wind affecting the speed of a boat more than any thing else. 3. The London four, beaten that year by the Etonians before and after when meeting on fair terms, finished that day before them from a station more sheltered than their's (though more exposed than that of the Canadians), thus proving, in racing parlance, that the " running was false." At Harvard University any undergraduate who has a taste for boating can become a member of the Boat Club on paying a small entrance fee to the boat club of the class to which he belongs. The club is officered by a President, Captain, Secretary, and Treasurer. The President is not necessarily an oarsman, but acts as presiding officer at meetings of the Club, and his election is dependent on his knowledge of the rules in practice, and his social weight and influence. When the crew are afloat the captain has sole authority, takes charge of all details, assigns each man his place, and is, in fact, dictator. He selects, trains, and directs the crew; and from his decision there is no appeal, he may make the bow stroke and the stroke bow, or may turn all out and replace the crew. At present Grinnell Willis, of the class of '7O, is President of the Harvard Club ; and Nathaniel Goodwin Read, of the class of '7l, is Captain. The Captain of the llarvard Club is always Captain also of the " University Crew," which consists of six picked men of the best muscle Harvard can show. Ti e class crews are six -oared, as well as the Uni versity crew, the present four-oared Interna tion 11 crew being altogether an innovation. Each of the classes has generally a first and second crew, ranking according to ability. The Slpho more first crew is at present much broken up by the transfer of Read, Bass, and Rice to the Inter national and University crews ; second crews are not allowed to compete in the annual June race for the Beacon Cup ; the University six are also ex cluded, as the best six s.:!lected from the several classes are supposed to be invincible against any class six. Last year this prize was carried off by the Freshmen crew, who this year, with one excep tion, hold positions either i❑ the International four or in the University six. In 1866 the Freshmen crew were also victorious, when Mr. Loring was stroke and Mr. Simmons third. The second crews compete among themselves for a prize at the annual June race. This year, on account of many changes, the Freshmen first crew will not excite the usual inte rest. There is also a Scientific crew at llarvard, com posed of the students in the scientific and law schools, departments of the University, and who generally contest with a crew similarly composed from Yale. The class crews of Harvard intend to make arrange ments whereby the Scientia3s may contend for the Beacon Cup, as they have a right to do by the regu lations. Red is the Harvard colour ; modified by the classes into shades of cherry, scarlet, and ma genta; the Seniors wear cherry, the Juniors magenta, and the Sophomores scarlet. The four who form the International crew have already been described is these columns, and will consist of Alden Porter Loring of Boston, captain of the crew, and bow oar ; IVilliam Hamtnatt Simmons of Concord, Mas sachusetts, the stroke oar ; Sylvester Warren Rice of Oregon is the second oar of the four, and George Bass of Chicago is third oar. Arthur Burnam of Chic.►go is the probable coxswain. Two spare men will accompany the crew, of whom Joseph Story Fay, stroke oar of the Scientific crew, will be one. I.l.)ston, Concord, Chicago, and Oregon will there fore contribute the crew in the approaching inte resting contest, which has consequently been termed a "national" crew. The International and the Uni versity crews are in daily practice on the Charles River, and the former crew have lately received their new practice boat from the establishment of Elliott of Green Point, Long Island. It was thought probable that another boat would be built for the English contest, carrying out such improve ments as practice might suggest. The Interna tional crew were to leave for England by the steamer next Saturday, the 10th July, so as to admit of six weeks' training before the great race in August. The University six of the present year will pro • bably be Nathaniel Goodwin Read, who is how oar and captain of the crew, and was bow oar of the Freshmen and winning crew last June ; Francis Ogden Lyman, of Hilo, i❑ the Sandwich Islands, is stroke oar, and held this position in the winning boat last year ; Theophilus Parsons, of Brookline, Massachusetts, is next on the list ; George Irving Jones, of Templeton, Massachusetts (second oar of the Freshmen first crew and winners of the Beacon Cup last year), is nominated for fifth oar; Grinnell Willis, of Cornwall Landing, New York, son of the poet, the late N. P. Willis, is acting fourth oar, with every prospect of being appointed. Ile was bow oar of the Sophomores in June last, and bow oar of the Freshmen crew in the June and July regattas of 1867 ; Frederick Kidder, of Wilming ton, North Carolina, is another probable member, and at present assigned as third oar ; all are under 22 years of age, and their average weight is 163 pounds. The regatta is fixed for July 23 on Lake Quinsigamond, and it is likely that the boat of last year will be used on the lake. Bass ball and cricket receive also much attention at Harvard. Unusual interest is at present felt at Yale on boating, and the following description of the University crew is given in an American paper : " The stroke, Drew, is as powerful and solid a man as a Yale boat has held for many a year. He is straight, has a long back and largo arms. Moreover, he is of consider able age, an advantage in respect to endurance and capacity. Copp and Lee are two powerful men. The former is an old salt, in his way, having been brought up _ . on the sea shore, and always accustomed to pulling an oar. He pulled stroke last year, yet he has fallen into Drew's stroke so gracefully this year that the others who sit be hind have only to watch the rising and falling of those two backs to make the whole crew a machine. Lee is a strong fellow, something of a hoosior ; he is also a member of last year's crew. Terry, who pulled bow last year, occupies the same pl a ce still. He is, perhaps, the m os t promising man of muscle in the boat, for, though the youngest, his solid arms and thick chest show that he will be a giant when as old as Drew. He has, too, ono of the best qualifications for coxswain in a powerful pair of lungs. The two others of the six have not yet been tried in a race. The crow has made good time in practice, and the Yale students feel pretty sure of winning at Worcester. The great object of their ambition is to go a little beyond more victory, and make bettor time than the 17.48 of last year, which Harvard men claim was the best on record." Lotd Stamford announces fourteen yearlings for sale by private contract, and they can be viewed at Park Pad docks, Newmarket, during the ensuing July Meeting. The chestnut filly by Cambuscan out of Lady A ugusta, the colt by Cambuscan out of Emily (Nurmauby's dam), and the colt by King Tom out of Cerintha, aro reported to be spleuded youngsters. It is the opinion of Admiral nous, we hear, that the King Tom colt is the finest yearling he over saw. DUNVILLE and Co., Belfast, are the largest holders of Whisky in the world.

The July Stakes is one of the most important events to be decided at the latter place, and Sunshine or Waif will be returned the winner. The Gladiateur Stakes will probably fall to Pi.inee or Nio3nstone, and the Achievement Stakes Barun Rothschild will be handy for with Mahonia, though I do not fancy the latter so much as Ido Cestus and the " dark" Wave. Gertrude's Mb. penalty should not stop her from taking the Ten Sovs. Sweepstakes, the next best being Frivo lity, who has 101 b. extra to bear. The other Two year-old Sweepstakes will probably end in a walk over, and the Three-year-old Sweepstakes on the second day is not likely to produce a race. The Chesterfield Stakes is a more important two year-old race than the July, and thirty of the fifty seven entered have yet to make their first appear ance in public, the pick of them, according to ru mour, being Pibroch, Blue Stocking, Chancelier, and the Governess colt, most of whom are engaged in the big race of Tuesday, as are Normanby, Waif, and the Madame Eglantine filly of the public lot. The latter has a 71b, penalty, and is the only one at present that has extra weight to bear ; but the winner of the July, if engaged in the Ches terfield, will have the additional impost to bear, and I hardly expect to see one horse carry off the two events, though the coup has been accomplished more than once. All the foregoing lot may find KlNG craft and Agility too much for them, and the two latter shall be my representatives, as the severe course will suit the stamina and gameness of the daughter of Adventurer and Mandragon, and the other will be less " raw " than he was at Ascot.. Number Nip ought to win the Cumberland Plate ; Leonora or Hawthorn the Carlisle Stakes ; and Dervento the Grand Stand Handicap. The other races had better be left alone till the numbers go up.
