CITY, Two o'CLocic. The advices from the various manufacturing districts in the north of England continue of a satisfactory character. During the past week there has been greater activity in the cloth halls at Leeds, and more than an average amount of busi ness has been done. Trade at Bradford has been ste ady. Worsted yarns were in fair demand, and a favourable business was transacted in piece goods — chiefly in fancy fabrics for the spring. At Man chester there has not been much activity, owing to the usual stock-taking having been in progress in most departments. Indian goods, however, have shown rather more buoyancy, and prices are tend ing upwards. The hosiery trade of Leicester has continued active, and the demand for all useful goods has been on the increase ; full rates have been current for wools and yarns. Business at Birming ham has been rather quiet, but most of the staple manufactures of the town were active, and orders for exportation to some extent have been given out. At Sheffield and Wolverhampton there has been an improved demand for most descriptions of goods ; and in South Staffordshire the iron trade continues active. In the Liverpool Cotton Market on Saturday a moderate amonnt of business was transacted, and p r ices Were unaltered. The sales were 8,000 bales. The Railway Share market closed with rather more animation, and quotations tended upwards. There is very little alteration in the terms charged for dis count accommodation, but owing to the d inai nished inquiry choice bills are in some instances negotiated at a fraction under the Bank of Eng land mi n i mum. The payment of the dividends has commenced, and the large amount of money thus realised may create temporary quietude ; but the specie movement, and the employment of capital in new joint-stock enterprises, lead to the expectation that greater firmness will soon be experienced. The English Stock Market opened this morning with a steady appearance, but the transactions do not at present indicate the least increase of specu lative business. Meanwhile bona fide dealings are prevented by the transfer books being shut;' they will, however, be re-opened on the 18th, When more activity may be experienced. Consols have been 95 9:, for to-morrow, and 95 1 1, for February, since then they have receded Per cent., viz. to 951 and 95:1 respectively. The:New Threes are steady at 95! 96 ; the Reduced at 95 1 ; Long Annuities at 17-1-; Exchequer Bills tt aes. t o 325. prem.; India Stock is marked 222; ditto New Loan, 1049 ; ditto Enfaced Paper, 961 to 1. 97 4 ; and the Debentures have advanced to 99. rat; the Foreign Market the dealings have been rath er -unle r° ll s, but the quotations, which at first PPeered fir mer, are now rather heavy. Turkish 6 per Cents. b _Venezuelan Venezuelan are n -aye been 78: ; and the New, 66 to 661 ; " -o w 78 784, and 654 I, respectively ; Dutch, and Spanish Bonds are at about Buenos quotations ; Mexican Stock is 221 ; and of business Ayres Deferred, 219 22. A small amount business is recorded in Brazilian and Peruvian Securities. The shares of the San Paulo Railway are Z- dis. to par ; of the Ocean Marine Insurance, 1,4 prem. ; the Universal ditto, a dis. to par ; the New Bank of Turk e y is 9 9 prem. ; an d th e N ew C ana di an Loan has improved to 34 Z prem. In the Railway Share Market there has been a fair amount of business, and several of the principal undertakings have shown a further improvement of to 9 per cent. North Western, North British, and South Eastern have advanced ss. ; Caledonian, Great Northern, Great Western, Lancashire and Yorkshire, Midland, and North Eastern (York), 1 08. South Western, however, declined about ss. The dealings in the Foreign and Colonial under takings were limited. Lombardo-Venetian slightly advanced, say to 12k. Bahia and San Francisco were steady at 7, and Royal Danish improved to 15. East Indian remained firm at 1041, and Grand Trunk of Canada at 441. For Joint Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares there 'was a fair enquiry, at about former prices.

Affairs of L stibject of Italy dates back to the time of the journey It Cowley to London,when the Court was at Compiegne. i t wasi.about that period that the Emperor decided on bring lathielti:arnii:Y closer to that of England, for the settlementof question. • Between the circular of the sth Nov.

The attempts b eads,,_ o to induce the Emperor to have a note inserted theinh I..4terneieteounsr Constantly met by refusal, and the resignation _ __ n __ steer eelUit became inevitable. It must be also said the Mi . i ti le r Was not quite in accord on the Italian question with sr‘xplicittlilye EMT :billets of London and Turin' , and that from the day peror thought it necessary to point out more ~.4.. policy on that - question, the maintenance of e unt Walewski at the head of his department became en te(litgly difficult. The dissent which has compelled the t h t e . P!ror to remove the Count has not in any way lessened tr",,,lrong esteem and affection entertained by his Majesty 418 ex-rainister."

The leading country markets held on Satnaday were but moderately supplied with wheat. On the whole, the de mand ruled steady, and prices were the turn higher. Bar ley, oats, and flour were in request at extreme rates. In other kinds of produce only a limited business was passing. Throughout the continent wheat has changed hands slowly; nevertheless, the quotations have continued firm. In the value of spring corn very little change has taken place. Advices from the United States are to the effect that the business doing in produce was only moderate. The arrivals of English grain up to our market last week were limited. From abroad we received 3,705 qrs. wheat, 17,860 barley, 14,607 oats, 18 beans, 360 tares, 20,639 lin seed, 4,778 rapeseed, 800 maize, 815 sundry seeds, 100 sacks and 1,263 brls. of flour. Coastwise and by land carriage, a moderate supply of English wheat came fresh to hand this morning ; but in the general quality of the samples we observed a slight im- provement. The attendance of buyers was by no means numerous, yet most of the finest samples of both red and white were disposed of at last Monday's currency. Damp qualities were a dull inquiry. In prices, however, no quotable change took place. The show of foreign wheat was moderately good. There was ne disposition shown by the millers to operate largely ; yet importers were vety firm, and prices were well sup ported. Floating cargoes of grain were inactive, but not cheaper. We were fairly supplied with home-grown and foreign barley. On the whole, the trade ruled steady at full quo tations. New malt was firm in price, but old parcels were a dull inquiry on former terms. The supplies of oats were rather limited. Although there was no life in the oat trade, prices generally were well supported. Beans, though in very moderate supply, moved off slowly at last week's decline. We had a dull inquiry for peas, at barely late rates. The flour trade may be considered steady at last Mon day's currency. CURRENCY PER IMPERTAL MEASIIRE.

From our own grazing districts the receipts of beasts fresh up this morning were seasonably good, and in v er y prime condition; inded, the supply was one of the best we have ever seen at this period of the year. The remark ably even quality of the stock produced rather a dull mar ket for beef, and prices may be considered 2d per Blbs lower than on Monday last. The best Scots sold at 4s 10d pet 81bs. The arrivals from the northern districts were about 1,000 shorthorns, &c. ; from the eastern counties, 1,500 crosses ; from Scotland, 530 Scots and crosses ; and from Ireland, 50 oxen. The remainder of the supply was derived from various sources. Notwithstanding that the show of sheep was on the in crease, the mutton trade was in a healthy state. Long wools, especially, were in request, ta fully last week's cur rency. The best Downs realised 5s 6d per Sibs. The supply of calves was limited, and the veal trade ruled steady at 2d per Sibs more money. There was a fair demand for pigs, at very full prices. Per Blbs. to sink the offal. s. d. s. d.

Plaintiff is a merchant of Rood-lane, in the city of Lon don, and now sought to recover £3 65., made up as follows : --£1 16s. fares paid for plaintiff and a friend to Northamp ton, 4s. charged as fare from Blisworth to Crick, and £1 6s. fares back from Crick to London. Mr. Dc Jersey - appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. S. Hill was counsel for defendant. Mr. De Jersey, in opening the case, said this was a pub lic matter, and one in which the public were so deeply in terested, that Mr. Graves, at great loss of time, had deter mined upon trying it out. He had no personal feeling against the railway company, but it was a duty every man owed to the public that when an important question arose, the point should be authoritatively settled. Mr. Graves felt this, and would tell his Honour on oath the nature of the case. Mr. Graves said ke was a merchant of the city of London. On Sunday, the 25th of September last, he left his house at Tulse Hill and drove to the defendants' station in Euston square. He took two return tickets for Northampton and back to London, for which he paid 365. He asked the porter to put him into a carriage going to Northampton, and the porter, opening a carriage door, said, " Get in here, sir." Plaintiff and his friend got in, and the train duly left. They proceeded en their journey until they arrived at Crick, and then plaintiff asked of a porter if the train was going on to Northampton. The porter replied, " Oh, you ought to have changed at Blisworth." Plaintiff and his friend got out, and plaintiff expressed his astonishment that he had not been informed of the fact at Blisworth, when he was told that the usual notification had been given at that place. Plaintiff denied that, and left the station —after paying 45., the fare from Blisworth to Crick—in search of a conveyance. No conveyance could be found, and plaintiff, with his f iend, returned to the Crick Rail way station, and were charged 205., fares to London. When plaintiff said he wanted to go to Northampton, the porter said, " Oh, this frequently occurs." At the Euston station plaintiff distinctly asked to be put in a carriage for Northampton. The porter did not tell witness that he would have to change at Blisworth. Blisworth was not ealled out in plaintiff's hearing. The porter at Crick was very attentive. Cross-examined—At Blisworth did not hear the porter call out " Change here for Peterboro' and Northampton." Was not asleep. Six years ago changed at Blisworth. Lost a good dinner by missing. (Laughter.) His Honour—You can't charge anything for that. (Renewed laughter.) Cross-examination continued—Thought I was going direct to Northampton. The parties offered to take us back to London upon our return tickets, but I refused to give them np, and waa charged the return fare. Did not see any label on the carriage we rode in. Certainly did not see any label "Birmingham." At Euston the porter said " Get in here." Mr. Hill—l don't see how the company can be made liable for the actions of their porters. His Honour—The servant acts after the contract is made with the company. Every one knows that at a railway station the porters take you into their own hands. Mr. Hill—Your honour will have seen that the defence to this action is the plaintiff's own negligence. Now, I shall call evidence to prove that the porter at Blisworth called out quite loudly. And Ts to the 4s. charged at Crick, had plain tiff remained in the station he would not have been charged, but the company, in self-protection, are bound to charge the extra fare, or else parties would take a ticket fur a certain station, and thou purposely getting carried over would walk off comfortably. As to the fare bAck to London, we charged because plaintiff would not give up the other tickets. Mr. 1)e J ersey—No. They are his contracts. Mr. Hill then called the porter at Blieworth, who said that ho recollected the train in which was plaintiff, on the 25th September. Witness called out, " Blisworth. Change here for Peterboro' and Northampton." Mr. Hill—Show the Court how you. called out. Porter (putting his hands to his mouth, and with the voice of a Stentor)—Chango here for Peterboro' and North ampton. (Roars of laughter, in which everybody but the porter joined.) I never miss calling out. Will swear I called out on the morning in question. Mr. Hill—You will swear you have never missed calling out ? His Honour—Don't ask him that Mr. Hill. A witness may swear and swear a little too much. Witness—There was a " Birmingham" label in the car• riage in which were plaintiff and his friend. The guard of the train deposed that be heard the las witness call out. Mr. De Jersey—Supposing plaintiff and his friend did not hear you ? Mr. Hill—They might have been asleep. Mr. De Jersey—Then you ought to have roused them. Mr. Hill—And if we were to pursue that plan some testy old gentleman would bring an action against the company for being disturbed in some dream. (Laughter.) The regulations of the company were then argued upon, and a large time-table produced, price one penny. Mr. De Jersey—My client is not bound to buy one. You don't 'give books away. Why should ho wade through this book. The porter believed the conditions were up at Euston Station. Mr. Hill—And they aro in the book. Mr. De Jersey—There are no conditions in the book at tho page where the time and fare are noted, but in another page are rules and regulations which are no conditions at all. In answer to his Honour, plaintiff said ha was in no hurry at the Euston Station. Ha had ten minutes to spare. The guard observed that the label Birmingham was posted right over the compartment in which were plaintiff and his friend. The train stopped long enough at Blisworth to allow an engine and three carriages to shunt off it. Some questions then arose as to thue comfort of the pas• sengers on railways, and his Honour said that railway com panies spent more upon lawyers thsca they did upon pas sengers. Mr. De Jersey—Before giving judgment your Honour will remember that plaintiff's friend bi here, and will corro borate him in every particular. Mr. Hill said he had plenty of with eases to confirm the testimony already given on behalf of the company. His Honour observed that it was apparent that it was purely a matter of principle on each side. He had gone very carefully through the evidence, and had come to the conclusion that the mere calling orzt, " Change here for Peterboro' and Northampton," by the porter, was not suffi cient. Had the porter put his head into the carriage and called out, " You must change hero far Northampton," the notification would then have been luny brought under the notice of the plaintiff. The conditions on the back of the ticket were not binding on plaintiff_ Had the company put on the back of the ticket, passenge ra will have to change at Blisworth, the company would have been better pro tected. As the case stood it would be a verdict for plaintiff, with 4e. extra expenses incurred. Costs of attorney allowed. POLICE INTELLIGENCE -•(THIS DAY.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. STEALING A LETTER BY A ROYAL. ARTILLERYMAN AT THE EARL or DERBY'S.—Arthur Morris Richards, private in the Royal Artillery, was charged before Mr. Beadon with stealing a letter from the hall table of 23, St. James's square, the residence of the Earl of Derby, the said letter being the property of Lord Stanley. Lewis Pearce, the porter at the E=rl of Derby's, said the prisoner rang the bell on Saturday might, and asked to see the Earl of Derby. The servant wlie opened the door told him that his lordship was not in toN rn. He (witness) then stepped forward and told him that he had been told that his lordship was not in town, and to go etbout his business, and that it was a very improper hour to_ , xll to see his lordship. The prisoner then left, and immediatelly he (witness) missed from the hall table a letter which hred been brought by one of the messengers at the East India flouse, and directed to Lord Stanley. Ile went into the square to look after the prisoner, and seeing him hastening Pt7ong called out " Stop thief," and the prisoner was stopped in Pall-mall, nearly at the bottom of the Haymarket, and a policeman coming up he took the letter from him. The letter produced was the one ho missed. He (witness) he'd seen Lord Stanley on tho previous day, and ho wished the case left entirely in his (the magistrate's) hands. In answer to Mr. Beadon, the witness said the prisoner was not known to any of the serrants4. John W. Norman, 14S A, said that while in Cockspur street, on Saturday night, he heard (tries of "Police." On going to the spot he found the prison at detained by the last witness. He told the prisoner ho was charged with stealing a letter at the Earl of Derby's, and he. (lenied it, but seeing something white in one hand, he seizi3d it and found the letter erumpied up in it, and in tha other he found the envelope, the prisoner evidently trying at the time to de. stroy them. In answer to Mr. Beadon, the constaTde said the prisoner did not seem to have been drinking,. and he gave no ex planation; and the only thing he sa;'d in answer to the charge was, "You have got to find out that 1 had the letter." ➢lr. Beadon asked the prisoner what he called at the Earl of Derby's for ? The prisoner said he supposed he Was not compelled to say anything to convict himself. He denied stealing Lord Stanley's letter. Mr. Beadon said perhaps he would. account for how the letter came into his possession? Prisoner said he was not bound to lunvict himself. Mr. Beadon said certainly not. Homy long had he been in the Royal Artillery P Prisoner replied only a wEek. The constable said he believed the prisoner was one of the returned men from India, and that he had rs-enlisted in the Royal Artillery. Mr. Bowdon said inquiries must be ma de about the case, and for that purpose he should remand, the prisoner fur a week. WOOL MARKET. We have no change to notice in the value of any kind of wool. English qualities are in steady request; but foreign and colonial qualities rule somewhat heavy. Last week's imports amounted to 902 bales from Taganrog, 737 from Sydney, 41 from the Cape, 1,313 from Melbourne, 30 from Natal, 17 from New Zealand, and 100 from Cronstadt. SEEDS. Linseed is dull, and prices have a drooping ten dency. Rapeseed has sold to a moderate extent, at full prices ; but canary and cloverseeds command very littlo at tention.

MIR D EDITION. SUN OFFICE, Seven o' Clock. TATTERSALLS'-(THIS .EVENING.) A larger muster than has been recorded lately, and the betting on certain horses somewhat spirited. The " feature" of the afternoon was the rapid advance of Lupullu.s, both in the 2,000 and Derby. For the latter event he was backed for between £2OO and £3OO. CLOSING PRICES.

The Bank bullion is £79,626 below the lowest amount touched throughout the whole of last year, and, apart from the sums about to be disbursed for the dividends, there is a prospect of a further de crease.' The arrivals from America, owing to the large shii.ments thence of cotton, are still very small, and all that comes from Australia and other sources is inadequate to meet the demand for exportation. This is a remarkable condition at a time when the profits of the country are greater than at any former period, and when there is a general absence of any undue speculation to lead to a diffusion of money in distant quarters. But the cause is, as was stated on the 2d of January, the enormous importation and creation of Indian securities. In addition to about £15,000,000 invested last year in Indian loans or rail Ways, we bought about £7,000,000 or £8,000,000 of the native debt, and these purchases are now going on at a greater rate than ever. As there are about 40,000,000 or 50,000,000 still re maining in India it is impossible to conjecture when the supply will be exhausted, and it is essential therefore that the public here should make a timely estimate of the consequences. On the question as to the intrinsic character of these investments there is no need to enter. They have been encouraged for trust and family purposes by authorities who might have been expected rather to inculcate the old doctrine, that as a general rule a high rate of interest cannot be expected or obtained without a corresponding risk, and therefore the avidity with which they have been sought is not surprising. The point for present consideration merely is, if we buy them how are we to pay for them ? it appears we are not only investing our national gains, but something beyond. Hence a compulsion to send bullion. Nothing can be better than Consols, but if the people of France were to import Consols at the rate of 50 millions per annum when they were making only 30 millions in the shape of trading profits they would inevitably experience inconve nience. Now, with every withdrawal of between one and two millions of bullion from the Bank of England the rate of discount usually advances about a half per cent. If the operators, cognizant of this fact, are still satisfied that even supposing the Bank minimum to be gradually raised to 3, 31, or 4 per cent., the demand will, nevertheless, so continue that even at present prices their bargains will then prove profitable, they will be quite right in persevering with them. The result will be their own affair, since the state of the market, such as it may prove, will have been produced by themselves. With regard to the rest of the public, they must provide accordingly, and bear in mind that what ever may be the influence anticipated from an ad vanced rate of discount on the prices of Indian se curities, there can be no doubt that in all other kinds of property, whether consisting of securities or cargoes of goods, it has never yet failed to create depression.— 2 Imes. STATUE OF GENERAL NAPIER. The uncovering of the statue of the late General Sir Charles James Napier, lately erected in , the north transept of St. Paul's Cathedral, took place on Saturday afternoon. The statue is one which there can be no hesitation in saying does the fullest credit to its sculptor, Mr. G. G. Adams, of Sloane street, who three years since executed the large bronze figure of the same hero at Trafalgar-square, and who now has raised this in St. Pauls. The work is eight feet six inches in height, and in its representation it is soldierlike, manly, firm, and decided, but there may be some doubts whether the light is a good one. In this respect, therefore, the sculptor, clever and successful as he is, may suffer. '1 he work, however, notwithstanding the difficulties with which Mr. Adams has to encounter, will en hance his reputation, and will form a pleasing ad dition to the many masterpieces of art which grace our metropolitan cathedral. The figure is standing on the left leg with the right foot advanced, his left hand resting upon the sword, whilst the right grasps a scroll and reposes upon the hip. The ge ml is represented in his undress uniform. A mili tary cloak is introduced, and falls over the left arm, He has characteristic high boots—well treated— and the likeness is excellent, and the general effect and character of the head is very imposing. The figure is totally different in design to the work at Charing-cross. It is a fine block of marble. The pedestal is of Sicilian statuary, partaking of the usual forms of others in the building, and bears this inscription : CHARLES JAMES NAPIER, A PRESCIENT GENERAL, A BENEFICENT GOVERNOR, A JUST MAN. It is raised -by the committee with the surplus fund remaining from the public subscription from all classes, even private soldiers. The chairman of the committee, through whose instrumentality the monument has been erected, is the Earl of Ellen• borough, the secretaries being Lord Clyde and Colonel Kennedy. We regret to hear that General Sir William Napier, the brother of the distinguished man so honoured, is dangerously ill. THIS DAPS SHIP PING.

The second of the special Sunday evening services at St. Paul's Cathedral was held last night under the dome. Full choral service was performed, and the sermon preached by the Rev. Dani e l M oore , M.A., incumbent of Camden Church, Camberwell. The rev. gentleman selected for his text the 35th verse of the 24th chapter of St. Matthew's Gos pel. The sermon, which was delivered with great energy, was listened to with marked attention by the vast congregation. The hymns sung during the service were taken from the Rev. Mr. Mercer's hymn-book. The Rev. Archibald Boyd, ALA., incumbent of St. James's Church, Paddington, and honorary canon of Gloucester Cathedral, will be the preacher at St. Paul's next Sunday evening. • At Westminster Abbey there was a large congre gation, the nave being quite full. Choral service was performed, and the preacher was the Rev. Thomas James Rowsell, M.A., incumbent of St. Peter's, Stepney, and chaplain to the Duke of Sutherland. He selected for his text the second chapter of St. Luke's Gospel, v. 49. The sermon was characterised by great earnestness, and was most attentively listened to. Exeter Hall was thrown open for service last night, and a congregation assembled composed principally of working men. The preaeher was the Rev. W. B. Mackenzie, M.A., of Magdalen Hall, Oxford, incumbent of St. James's Church, Holloway. He aimed to set forth the claims of personal rellg:on 111 that plain and impressive lan guage which convinces the hearers that he has a message of infinite importance to deliver worthy of their solemn conaideration ; his text was the second verse of the 3d chapter of Zechariah. The Rev. John Thomas Manley, ALA , of Trinity College, Cambridge, incumbent of Mortlake, will be the preacher at Exeter Hall next Sunday evening. The Victoria Theatre was for the first time opened for a religious service yesterday afternoon, when the Rev. W. Landells, of the Baptist Chapel, Regent's-park, preached' to a very mlscellancous audience. There was a second service in the even ing, when the sermon was p-cached by the Rev. Samuel Minton, M.A., minister of Percy Chapel, a clergyman of the Church of England. At the Garrick Theatre, Whitechapel, in the afternoon the Rev. George Smith, Independent Minister of Poplar, preached, and at a second ser vice the sermon was preached by the Rev. C. S. F. Money, M.A., incumbent of St. John's, Deptford. At Sadler's Wells Theatre there was a service, which was conducted by the Rev. F. Tucker, a minister of the Wesleyan denomination. 4 IVEJV PLANET. Oar readers must recollect M. Leverrier's sur prising conamunication'to the Academy of Sciences on the 12th of September last, in which he annount ei a certain error in the secular motion of the perihelion of Mercury, which could not be other wise explained than by supposing another planet' to exist, between Mercury and the sun. It would now seem that M. Leverrier, to whom the world owes the unprece dented prediction of the existence of the planet Neptune, has had the no less unexampled good fortune, richly due to his scientific attainments and unceasing energy, of seeing his second pre diction also verified. The Intra-Moicurial planet has been found ! Such is the astounding intelli gence announced to the Academy by M. Lever rier himself. And not only has it been found, but it was to several months before M. Leverrier discovered its existence by calculation ; and, stranger still, the finder'is not an astronomer, but a physician (Dr. Lescarbault by name, living at Orgeres (Eure-et-Loir). The facts are simply these :—On the 26th of March last the sky was overcast in many parts of France, but the sun shone brightly on the plateau of Orgeres. Dr. Lescarbault, happening, at the time to have a little leisure, took an observation of the sun through his telescope, and saw, to his surprise, a small, round,. black spot pass over the run's disk. He carefully noted down the time, and afterwards calculated that the chord described by the planet subtended an arc of about nine minutes and thirteen seconds. Leverrier having published the result of his calculations in September last, the doctor wrote to him to acquaint him with the above fact. This was a sufficient reason for M. Leverrier to set out for Orgeres. Here he learnt that Dr. Les carbault was a man of great learning and uni versally respected, and that he had but one fault— that of troubling himself too much about the stars! On arriving at Dr. Lescarbault's abode, M. Laver rier was astonished to find a regular observatory there, with instruments chiefly contrived by the doctor likus;elf, in consequence of his very limited financial means. The worthy physician, not having a chronometer, has nevertheless made himself a pendulum, striking seconds, by means of an ivory ball and a bit of string ! M. Leverrier asked him many questions on his observations, and his manner of actluiring the data relating to the new planet, and received the most satisfactory answers: According to M. Leverrier's calculations, the chord described by the planet must have subtended an arc of nine minutes and seventeen seconds, so that the doctor, with his clumsy apparatus, was only four seconds wrong. The doctor estimates the diamer of the new planet at 310 leagues, and the inclination of its orbit to the eliptic at 12 degrees. If such are its dimensions, it is likely that there are more planets still in that region. Its revolution round the sun is performen in 19 days and 17 hours ; in its greatest elongations its distance from the sun does not exceed 7 degrees, while Mercury's elonga tion is 25 degrees. It was lucky that M. Leverrier had resolved upon going in person for the doctor's observatory being strangely deficient in paper, his calculations were generally written in charcoal on a deal board; -and when it was full the doctor used to plane it down by way of cleaning it. This pre cious deal board, charged with all the calculations relating to the planet, has been obtained by M. Leverrier, and presented to the Academy. Mr. Tom Taylor has dramatised Mr. Dickens's last serial story, " A Tale of Two Cities," and it will be produced by Madame Celeste at the Lyceum Theatre. We (Sunday Vines) regret to learn that Miss Reynolds' health is so delicate that she will be unable to appear in the dramatic performance before her Majesty and the Court, on next Wednesday, at Windsor Castle. Miss Reynolds had been cast for Helen, in• "The Hunchback," the piece selected for performance on that occasion, Miss Amy Sedgwick will personate Julia in the play. DESTRUCTITE FIRIL—DUBLIN, Sunday.—About 10 o'clock this forenoon a fire broke out in the parish church of St. Andrew, better known as the Round Church, and in less than two hours the roof fell in and the whole building, with the exception of the outer walls and the vestry-room, was a smoking mass of ruins. The fire was believed to have been caused by overheating the flue in a stove which, communicating with the woodwork, speedily sst the whole church in a blaze. Like all the parish churches of Dublin, St. Andrew's had no claims to architectural beauty, but was rather a substantial and commodious pile, with a vast deal of woodwork in the interior. Until recently it was lit with the chandelier which belonged to the old House of Commons in College-green, but the relic is now in the keeping of one of the Dublin museums. TILE GREAT SIIIP COMPANY.---It is rumoured (says the Observer) that at a bOard meeting held on Friday, the directors of the Great Ship Company unanimously re solved to resign, and that it is to be intimated to the 'meeting of shareholders, called for Wednesday next, that they hold office only until their successors shall be appointed. Mr. Lever, M.P., accompanied by Mr. O'Beirne, and some other gentlemen, paid a lengthened visit to the Great Ship yesterday (Saturday), and minutely inspected her machinery, saloons, cabin acconiodation, and cargo room, with reference, we be lieve, to the offer lately made by Mr. Lever, for chartering the vessel, which was stated and explained some t i me since in this journal. In the arrangements which he has organised for the employment of the ship, Mr. Lever contemplates, should his offer be accepted by the shareholders, adopting Southampton as her port of departure from England. There have been no railway proceedings during the week of any importance. Meetings have been held in some parts of the country to forward the c onstruction a few local projects. The long pending negotiations for_ the lease or sale of the Wa erford and Limerick to the Great Southern and Western have at least definitively fallen through. The proposed conversion of the Regent's Canal into a railway is expected to meet with strong opposition The f o r s n u o c t c c e r s s s 0 . f Thehe allmnea,l,hametNier, before Parliament. Edinburgh, and Glasg b ow andon assert that they, are certain ' h Central will also encounter strenuous resistance seamier of the Caledonian, Scottish bodies. At th e ' from various l ana i publi c adjourned meet ing of the Ceylon the d i rectors' report was unanimously adopted. It was stated that . the works have not been ab solutely itt are Lein;; s topped, b carried on at a moderate rate, w ith the view of keeping the officers empl o y e d, an d o f being Wile to show some progress in case the Govern . ment determine to carry out the whole or a portion of the lino. By the next mee ti ng the directors hope to be able to give full information respecting any pro posal that may have been received from the authorities! The vestry of St. Bride 1 •passed have a resolution in favour of the proposed extension ,ef the London, Chatham and Dover, to Farringdon-street. TUE TM:MILTS OP SUEZ.—A Paris letter in the Indtpenciance of Brussels says :—" In consequence of an understanding come to between France and England, the difficulties relative to the Isthmus of Suez are now probably removed. Also, in order to be agreeable to England, the French Government has sent or ders to it s fleet at Algesiras, the presence of which at that place caused a certain degree of dissatisfaction to England, to return to Toulon. This fact will be made officially known in the course of a few days. In return for this friendly proceeding on the part of France, the number of English vessels at Algesiras and - Gibraltar is to be reduced nearly one-half; the vessels reduced are not, however, to return to England, but to go to Malta for tl.e rest of the winter." THE RELIGIOUS REVIVAL IN - WOLVERHAMPTON. —On Wednesday night at least 1;6600 people assembled at a " united prayer meeting" held in the Ex, hangs. Wolver hampton, and if theie had been room at least 2,030 would have congregated to bkseech the outpouring oL the Holy Spirit upon that town.—Manchester Examner. LORD CLYDE.—Some of our contemporaries an nounce that Lord Clyde may 1 a expected in England abot.t the middle of this month. We are more inclined to think, however, that the gallant General will arrive about the end of February, when doubtless the country will give him such a reception as his great services deserve.—Army and 11 r avy Gazelle. the plied :hat •an of out, seen ; to the onu- ime the attle r-in- d on 'even 1 our Tent [ had e his mea meet ,tates n it 'don, 1818 ex etor, !atly m of an ce oubt )mas Lion tale hat y he tv." 112 1091 341 4 120 24 21 } I
