An influential deputation of bankers, merchants, and others had an interview yesterday with the Loan MAYO; at the Mansion Ilouse, respecting the famine in India, of which we had lately received such distressing accounts. Mr..k. W. CRAWFORD explained the purport they had in view in waiting upon his lordship. They had deemed it their duty to come to him in order to state what was the public feeling on this subject at present. When he read of the details that had been given by the papers as to the great sufferings of those in the neighbourhood of Calcutta, he said they were surprised to find that so little had been done by the Government on the spot, and no doubt many will agree with him. There have been already such large subscriptions for the relief of the suf ferers i n W India that, as Mr. CRAFORD added, th ere can be no doubt as to the course which would be adopted, but still they wished to know what the Government woull do. The Lord Mayor seems to have acted with grea t discretion i n this difficult matter, and to have done his utmost to meet the He requested an rviirements of the case. inter view with Lord CnANnOUNE, and related to those present the particulars of that interview. Starva tion, it is grie . vous to state, has existed to a great extent, and there has been a want of promptitude di.q)layed by the local Government of Bengal, but since July every exertion has been made to mitigate the evil, by consigning large quan tities of rice for the relief of the faluipie-etrickeu districts, and spending money in the employment on public works. The details that were furnished by the Lord Mayor seem to be sufficiently reassuring to those who take an interest in this matter, and are natu turally most anxious that all should be done which can be done to meet the emergency. So large a sum as £120,000 was subscribed in the city of Lon don, in 1860, for the relief of famine in India, and it is satisfactory to know that great part of this has been available this year. The Lord Mayor stated that sixty-two thousand pounds have been applied this year to relieve the distress in India. Accord ing to the accounts furnished by Lord CRANBORNE, it would seem as if we had every reason to look with confidence and hope to the future, and to place reliance in the efforts of those who are now striving to assist the sufferers. Unlimited autho rity has been given to the Lieutenant-Governor of Bengal to expend such sums as he thinks advis able in the present emergency, and this is in addi tion to the district grants that were previously re- , ferred to. It is satisfactory to find that the " Go vernment of Indiahave authority andpower, in con nection with the people of India, to deal with this question in the fullest and most ample manner." The Lord Mayor declared to the meeting that he had the assurance of Lord CRANBORNE that the Government had the power and authority to do all that is ne?essary in the emergency, and hence he justly put the matter in its true light before the meeting. Of course there would be no fear of a sufficiency of subscrip tions to meet any emergency that might arise ; but, at the same time, if there be no occasion for assistance from this country, it will be wellto reserve the money for some passing occasions of distress. Lord CRAN BORNE has already displayed during his brief tenure of office so much zeal and efficiency on the subjects that have come before his consideration that there is no reason to doubt the justness of his opinions or the wisdom of his advice ; and the LORD MAYort intimated it to be his impression, from what passed at the interview the day before, that Lord CRAN BORNE believed that there was no need for the public to interfere in the matter. At the same time it reflects great credit on these gentlemen that they have come forward to do their utmost to assist those in distress ; and it is satisfactory to think that, in the case of any drawback or disappointment taking place, they will be ready to do their utmost in order that the famine may not be lasting in its effects. We learn by the arrival of the Scotia from New York, on the 19th, that matters are improving for the PRESIDENT. The struggle is a violent one, and its issues will be momentous. The Radicals will of course fight hard till the last, and will not, as we know of old, shrink from any device that may profit them. The PRESIDENT, on his side, has been making an electioneering tour with varying success, and he has not scrupled to denounce his adversaries in the most unmeasured terms. Moderation and courtesy are unhappily qualities by no means characteristic of American political life, and therefore some allowance must be made on both sides so far as language is con cerned. The PRESIDENT'S journey is over, and he has returned with his suite to Washington, where an enthusiastic reception was accorded to them. A delegation of Fenians has visited Mr. JOHNSON since his return, urging him to form a more liberal Cabinet, to appoint more liberal Democratic representatives, and to remove the American Consuls in Ireland for not standing up for the rights of adopted American citizens. So that these gentlemen, after setting Ireland, England, and Canada to rights, have some leisure to spare for reforming the American Administration. This is a sample of the difficulties which beset American statesmen who are so dependent for support on the popular caprice of the moment, and cannot afford to offend any party however extravagant on the eve of an election, unless, like Mr. JOHNSON and the Radicals, they are at open war. The Fenians add a troublesome element to the already disturbed political world of the States, and the Radicals have been for some time past industriously trying to bring them over to their side. Mr. JOHNSON received this deputation with courtesy, professed great sympathy with the Irish generally, and said that determined action had already been taken to effect the release of the Fenian prisoners. It is fortunate for Mr. JOHNSON that the prompt action of the English Go vernment in despatching troops to Canada will re lieve him from the difficulty in which he would be placed with regard to a second Fenian raid into Canada were the colony undefended. The Soldiers and Sailors' Convention has assembled at Cleveland, Ohio, and has been largely attended. Resolu tions were adopted endorsing the Philadelphia Democratic Convention, and opposing the Constitutional Amendment, as only effecting the prolonged exclusion of the Southern States from the Union. A mass meeting of the Confederate soldiers at Memphis was held at the same time, and a telegram was sent to the Cleveland Convention, stating that the Southern soldiers were willing to leave the settlement of their difficulties with the soldiers of the Union. This is another proof that the only thing which stands in the way of an harmonious settlement of the country is the policy of the Radicals, and ou the issue of the coming elections rests the answer to the question of internal prosperity or complete political and social disorganisation. Meetings have been held throughout Louisiana and Mississippi in support of the Philadelphia Con vention, and a large and enthusiastic assemblage was held at Union-square, New York, under the presidency of Gene -cal Dix, to endorse the PRESI e DENT'S policy, and to deprecate the course pursued by carried away by the o t u h r e s i e r \ p v a h r i e t y h n p i a a r y a s l Congress. Men who are not vehemence and intolerance o: pause to consider what they am b ringing upon th e i r country by persisting in a the trade and industry of the whole Southern States. The news from New Orleans reports serious and widespread injury to the cotton crop throughout the whole of Louisiana and Mississippi, with the exception of a small district in the uplands of the latter State. What else can be expected when all property in the South is held in an uncertain tenure, when planters are constantly threatened with the confiscation of their lands ? When, thanks to the action of the Freedmen's Bureau and the mischief-making exhortations of fanatical politicians and agitators, the negro is en couraged in his natural indolence, and is allowed to feel that, whether he works for his bread or not, he may eat. Americans a few years back would , have been thought far too shrewd for such a course, and the cute merchants and exporters of the North would have ridiculed the idea of sacrificing their direct pecuniary interests at the bidding of demagogues who are apparently regardless of the risk they are running. We should have hoped that the bitter experience of the war would have taught better lessons, but a large party seem ready to for get how much civil discord has already cost them, and to be ready to rush into fresh commotion. America is trilling with her destiny. A long un broken era of progress and rapid development has iftpired her people with an excesive confidence in th e i r cowil power. "A house divided against itself cannot stand," and even the United States, great and powerful as they are, cannot long withstand the effect of a nominal union, and a widespread and continuous disaffection. Commercial enterprise and prosperity cannot possibly exist in the midst of a country whose people are kept forcibly in subjection. The whole experience of history proves the contrary, and American statesmen must have wandered very far from the doctrines of their predecessors before they contemplate such a prospect. They do not appear to perceive the disgrace and discredit which such a failure on the part of the great Republic would bring on the cause of constitutional freedom throughout the world. In point of fact, it is the excess to which the theories of freedom have been carried in America which has interfered with the practice. Liberty has been allowed to be pushed to license by a few, who thereupon interfered with the liberty of others. The freedom of speech has been carried to an extreme which we are forced to regret on the part of the most eminent men, and consequently it very soon becomes little less than treason and slander on the lips of unscrupulous agi tators. In the same way the friends of the negro have become his enemies by flatter ing his defects, instead of endeavouring to counteract them by wise and kindly legislation. Surely it is not yet too late for Americans to see their danger. There is yet time to arrest the action of those who would hurry on the vessel of the State regardless of the cataract, the storm, or the rock. The wise and moderate men of all parties must exert themselves, or the victory will belong to those who spare no effort, shrink from no meanness, employ every device of calumny, intrigue, and violence to carry their purpose. The latest news of the Atlan tic Cable tells us that the PRESIDENT'S supporters are less unanimous, and that the Democratic Repub lican Alliance is growing weaker. This is good news for the despots of Europe, but mournful in. tclligence for the real friends, and well-wishers o. constitutional freedom in America. CORRESPONDENCE FROM PARIS. MOH OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, Friday Evening. The Gazette de Vienne says that the Treaty of Peace between Austria and Italy makes no men tion either of rectification of frontiers, compensa tion, or abandonment of territory. Venetia has been surrendered, with its present administrative frontiers to France, who has given it up to Italy, whose limits by this act becomes international, just as those of the West were before. A letter from Venice, dated Sept. 20, says : " Lieut.-General Count Petiti, aide-de-camp Gene ral of Victor Emmanuel, arrived here suddenly yes terday, and had a long interview with the Austrian Plenipotentiary, General deMering, and the French Commissioner, General Lebceuf, after which he will return to Mestre, and from thence to Padua. It is said that the Count's mission had reference to the surrender of the fortresses and the materiel of war. In order to avoid the long operation of a formal estimate and a detailed note of the surrender of the fortresses and materiel, it was arranged that a round sum should be paid to Austria for these fortresses, and as soon as the amount should be paid the sur render of the fortresses should immediately take place. By this mode much time will be gained, and the solution so much desired of the question will be hastened and facilitated." The Clio, a Greek journal, published at Trieste, says that Russia has proposed to the Cabinets of London and Paris the united intervention of the protecting Powers, who signed the protocols of 1830 in favour of the Cretaus. These Powers were France, England, and Russia. These protocols of 1830 concern not only the Cretans, but the whole of Greece, to whom the protection of the three Powers extend. By the terms of the I'rotecol of the Conference of the 3d of February, 1830, the Sub lime Porte having already adhered to the Treaty of London, of July 6, 1826, " promises, and engages besides with the representatives of the Powers who signed the said Treaty, to consent to all the arrange ments which shall be made by the Conference of London relative to the execution of the Treaty." The papers contain long details of the damage done by the inundations. The Emperor, Empress, and the Imperial Prince have sent 35,000 f. to the Minister of the Interior, to be distributed among those who have suffered from these inundations. The Minister of the Interior and the Minister of Public Works have also sent assistance from the funds at their disposal. The Seine is still at an unexampled height, and rushes like a torrent. Navigation in the vicinity of Paris is likely to be stopped for some time. Much injury has been done to the craft on the river. On some parts of the river between the Pont de Grenelle and Sevres the banks are overflowed, and at Billancourt, near Sevres, the water has rushed up the lanes and avenues. The Loire has inundated various districts of Nevers, and people have been compelled to leave their houses. The road from Nevers to Moulins is covered with water. The communications are stopped, and works suspended. The Allier has risen alarmingly, and one of the bridges across it has been carried away. At Orleans and on the Upper Loire the same danger is reported. The Saone and the Rhone have overflowed, and all the confluents of the Seine are in the same condition. At Sens the water ro,3e a metre high in the streets. In the valley of the Lot bridges and highways are much damaged. Great injury has been done in the department of the Corrieze. In Savoy the water rose to a great height, and it will take a long time to repair the damage done to the railway between St. Jean and St. Michel. Military engineers have been despatched from Paris with the requisite ma terials to repair bridges and other constructions in the inundated districts. On Monday next another section of railway will be opened from Dreux (Euro et Loire) to Laigle (Orne). A certain Thomas Nicolas Cohn, aged 55, who wishes to inaugurate a new system of reform, has brought himseif within the Correctional Tribunal of the Seine on a charge which English lawyers would call assault and battery. In the accusation was also included Francois Claude Bordey, aged 30, a returned convict. Both prisoners are mechanics, and although Bordey calls himself a house agent he is in fact a servant of Colin. The Reform Asso ciation which Colin wishes to establish is with a view to the formation of society upon an entirely new bases. Ile wants society to be overthrown and " reformed altogether." The first step is to do away with private property and make it na tional. Everybody knows his own business best. Here is Colin's mode of obtaining members of the association, or, as he calls them, " neophites." The evidence given before the court was to the effect ltehtatatthtehecolmiepslati.nDanetisLe, r g ec u e e i r v e e t d , l a vh le o tt h e a r d fr a om ho c u o se lin to , stating that if he would come to the Gagny Rail way a thioimn C ho o m lin e ' , s a s n e d rv h a e nt wo w u o l u d ld fin ra d e x e l t L gueheitnarned conduct t a M. Legueret went accordingly, and the moment ho was seated in a room i n Colin's house, h precipitated down a t rap i n the floor, etenant.wsats and was gagged and put in a sack by the prisoners, who also tied his wrists. He was compelled to remain in the subterranean room for about two hours, while the prisoners detailed their plan of Reform, and tried to persuade the neophite to become a member of the association. They told him they had a great many houses of the same kind, and that the association was very mime- When questioned by the President, the pri soners did not deny the charge. Colin, in a wild strain, advocated the principles of the association, and said he had an " idea," and, naturally, he en deavoured to carry out this idea in the mode which he thought the most efficacious. The prosecutor roux. said that no injury was done to him, but he was much alarmed, but was fortunately able to cv.t open the sack with a knife which he had in his pocket. Bordcy, in defence, said he had only done his duty by obeying 111.3 master's orders. The President did not give any opinion upon the principles of the The Patric has an interesting anecdote in regard to the house which I mentioned as in course of restoration, Quai Conti, now the Pont Neuf, once inhabited by Napoleon I. The young officer, who had put on his uniform of lieutenant of artillery for the first time, paid a visit to M. Pernon, with whom he had become acquainted. The uniform was a bad fit, and the boots were " a world too wide for his shrunk shank." Cecile Pernon, his guest's daugh ter, a shrewd girl of 10 years, laughed at the " little Corporal," which made him angry, and he said, " You must look after this little girl." Cecile was nettled, and said, " Look at your feet. You are like Puss in Boots." There was a laugh from all present. Bonaparte was indignant at the moment, but he bore no malice, for in the evening he returned with a beautiful little toy, the purchase of which, in the state of his finances, was difficult. The toy represented Puss in Boots running after the carriage of the Marquis de Carabas. With it he presented a beautiful little edition of " Perrault's Tales," among which the adventures of Puss in Boots are re corded. Madame Pernon treasured up the present. The next morning, October 16, 1785, Napoleon left his house in the Quai Conti, with his comrade Des may and is a commissionaire with his trunk for the office where the coaches started for Lyons. On her deathbed, Cecile Pernon left the toy and the book as a legacy to her younger sister Laure, then Duchess of Abrantes, and it is preserved by the family in a box given by the Emperor's mother. Had Napoleon traversed the streets of London perhaps some might have said, " How are your poor feet ?" The Registrations. MIDDLESEX. Yesterday, Richard Edward Gibbs, of Holm wood, Hartley Wintley, near Winchfield, Hants, on the list for freehold houses Nos. 90, 91, and 92, Old Gravel-lane, was objected to by the Liberals. The voter claimed costs. The Barrister (to the voter)—l tell you, as I have told others, that the practice has not been to allow costs in cases of new claims. Voter—Then I think it a very bad practice-- (laughter)—and a very great shame. Barrister—l am not prepared, coming here for the first time, to change a practice which has been universally adopted by my predecessors. I cannot allow costs. Mr. Gilbert (to voter)—lf you had explained to the objector, you would have avoided all this trouble. Voter—You should have ascertained that I was not entitled before you made the objection. Mr. Gilbert—lf you knew how many fictitious claims were sent in, you would see the necessity of calling on a new claimant to prove his claim. Costs refused. The voter left the court much annoyed. Frederick William Martin, 6, Frederick-place, Hampstead-road, on the list for Stratford, was ob jected to by the overseers. The overseers, in answer to a question as to the ground of objection, said Mr. Martin had sold his property. Mr. Dear (Liberal agent)—l saw Mr. Martin a fortnight ago, and he informed me that his quali fication remain unaltered in every respect ; " and his son this very morning told me the same thing. This satisfied the Barrister, and the name was retained. The overseers made other objections to other voters, but they were disregarded on the objection taken by Mr. Dear to the " hearsay" evidence on which they were founded. He pointed out to the barrister that overseers' objections were simply marking in the lists in the qualification parish, and did not of necessity reach the resident parish, where alone it would be available. The Barrister, after hearing some argument be tween Mr. Dear and the overseers, refused to strike out the names unless some satisfactory proof was given. The Liberals had taken several objections to their opponents in the parish of St. Mary, Whitechapel. Mr. Smith's clerk supported the claims, and called the barrister's attention to the fact that the notices of objection to the overseers had not been signed. The Barrister—What, none of them ? Clerk—None of them. (Laughter.) Barrister—Then we can't go into them. Mr. Dear—The objector explained the cause of the mistake. In the hurry of signing a number of objections he must have signed " two at a time" instead of one. (Laughter.) The Limehouse list was then taken, and after it had been disposed of, a respectable elderly man in terrupted some of the proceedings by the vigour with which he was urging some point on the atten tion of the Liberal agent. The Barrister wished to know what it was all about. The party interrupting said the cause of his in terruption was a serious one, namely, that he found his name struck out, while his qualification was as good as the barrister's. His name was Walter Mor timer, his place of abode was the " Earl of Elles mere," Ellesmere-street, Bromley, and his qualifica tion was " freehold house," at 7, Cottage-place, St. Ann's, Limehouse. Barrister—Your name was called in order, and you did not appear. 1 cannot reopen the case, ex cept by consent. How long have you had the house ? Mr. Mortimer—Nine years. Revising Barrister—Then what is the objection to the claimant ? Mr. Gilbert—There has been a change of resi dence, and he has not sent in a new claim. Barrister—Well, I cannot re-open the case, ex cept by consent. Mr. Gilbert assented to the condition, and the struck-out name was restored. In Radcliff parish several objections were taken by the overseers, who, when called, did not answer to their names. One of them, it was stated, was ill, and with respect to the other it was said he hardly expected that the parish would be reached so early as one o'clock. The Barrister intimated that he did not like to strike out the names in the absence of the objectors. The missing overseer turned up pending the con sideration, and the Radcliff list was gone through. • The Court then adjourned. LITERARY INTELLIGENCE.—Messrs.

La Semaine Financieie has been purchased by M. Eugene Forcade for 130,000 f. This publication is not political, but the articles of M. Forcade, which show with such unerring judgment the effect which political events have upon the financial position, have rendered it a valuable guide both for politicians and financial men. It has achieved its reputation from its incorruptible impartiality. French capi talists avail themselves of its advice, in regard to which security it is best to buy on sale. I cannot render a better service to your financial readers than to recommend them to subscribe to the Semaine Financiere. I have no connection whatever with it, but having closely watched its weekly admonitions and appreciations, I can confidently say that it has well earned the high reputation it has acquired in France. Fortunes may be made or saved by fol lowing its advice. (REUTER'S TELEGRAMS.) THE PAPAL STATES. Holiness. ROME, Sept. 27 PRANCE AND GREECE. TRIESTE, Sept. 27 RUSSIA. ST.

The President and suite have returned to Wash ington, where they received an enthusiastic recep tion. The Soldiers' and Sailors' Convention assembled at Cleveland, Ohio, and was largely attended ; Gen. Gordon Granger was elected President. The Con vention adopted resolutions.and an address endors ing the Philadelphia Johnson Convention, and op posing the Constitutional Amendment as only effecting the prolonged exclusion of the Southern States from the Union. A telegram was sent to the Convention by a mass meeting of Confederate sol diers at Memphis, stating that they were willing to leave the settlement of their difficulties with the soldiers of the Union. A large and enthusiastic public demonstration has taken place in Union-square, New York, in order to support President Johnson's policy, Gen. Dix presiding. The meeting deprecated the course pur sued by Congress, and ratified the Democratic State Picket. Meetings have been held throughout Louisiana and Mississippi in support of the platform of the Philadelphia Convention. A Fenian delegation has visited President John son, and urged him to form a more liberal Cabinet, to appoint more liberal Democratic representatives, and to remove the American consuls in Ireland for not standing up for the rights of adopted American citizens. The President expressed strong sympa thy for the Irish, and said that determined action had already been taken to effect the 'release of the Irish prisoners.

THE DEVONSHIRE MURDERS.—The two "Devon shire murdrosses"—Charlotte Winsor and Elizabeth Duff— have been removed this week from Exeter Gaol to Mill bank Penitentiary. The third murdress, it will be remem bered, was executed a few months ago. The county, the fairest in England, outwardly seems to be rapidly attaining a reputation among the worst. The Totnes murder now turns out to have been a double crime, and was probably preceded by another. The body of the infant whom the murdered woman had with her when she was last seen alive has boon found in the Dart, and there is little doubt that the mother was ravished before she was killed. At present there seems not the faintest hope of discovering the perpo ttatots of these atrociou deeds.— Ire dent 49171i1ig News. LA TEST INTELLIGENCE. The Empress of Mexico has paid a visit with great ceremony to the Pope. Her Majesty had a long interview with his Adviccs received here from Constantinople state that the Marquis do Moustier had received a Greek deputation, who presented him with a congratulatory address expressing the thanks of the Greeks for the protection of France. The Marquis, in his reply, said that France had the moral and intellectual development of Greece at heart, but that the general state of political affairs in Europe did not permit her to support any revolutionary movement against Turkey. Earl Granville in Shropshire. On Thursday evening the directors of the Lilles hall Iron and Coal Company entertained a distin guished company to dinner in celebration of the late discovery of a rich coal-field on their estates at Prior's Lee. The banquet was held in a pavilion erected on an embankment at the mouth of the coal pit, and among the guests were Earl Granville (who presided), the lion. F. Leveson Gower, M.P., IL Jasper More, M.P., and a large number of the leading gentry of the locality. Iu reply to the toast of his health, Earl GIIANVILLE, after making the mottoes and legends with which the tent was decorated the texts for some happy remarks upon the special occasion of the dinner, referred to his own family motto, " Frangas non flectes," which occupied a prominent place on the walls. He had had, he said, many playful discussions:with the late Lord Palmerston as to which of their family mottoes was die better, and the one of which the bearer had most reason to be proud. Lord Palmerston's motto—" Flectes non frangas"— was precisely the reverse of his, and signified that he might be bent but could not be broken. Ile (the noble speaker) used to say that his motto was the best, because it implied that the bearer could not be persuaded to do that which he did not think was the right thing to do, and could only be turned aside by superior physical force. (Laughter.) But Lord Palmerston contended that his was the best, because it told the world that, though the bearer was open to the acts of persuasion and argument, no other force could move him against his own convictions. (Cheers and laughter.) If the company would bear with him he should like to tell them what he fancied was the origin of those two mottoes. (Applause.) They would remember that the crests of two ancient Italian families—the Orsini and the Colonna—were respectively a column and a bear, and he had in dulged in the fancy that the Temple family and his own were indebted to those, the arts, for their mottoes, the bear saying " You may bend me, but you cannot break me," and the column signifying " You may break me, but you cannot bend me." (Laughter and Cheers.) He must confess, however, that on the occasion when he was expected to say something about that material, the discovery of which in the neighbourhood they were met to cele brate, Lord P.'s motto would have been the most appropriate for him to have borne. They might certainly break coal by physical force, but in order to bend it to the great uses by which it had changed the face of the world and developed powers of which a century ago no mortal ever dreamed they require the persuasive force of intellect and brains. (Cheers.) A great deal had been said lately about the possi bility of England decaying from the exhaustion of her coal supply. Now that was a very serious ques tion, and one which had been brought prominently before the people's mind by men of great scientific attainments. Take Mr. Jones, and men of great learning and philosophical research, like Mr. John Stuart Mill, and lastly, by the late Chancellor of the Exchequer. (Cheers.) With respect to whom, he must say that he agreed with every word of praise which a previous speaker had used in connection with his name. (Cheers.) As for his speedy return to power, to which the speaker had so hopefully re ferred, it was not for him to utter a wish—(laughter) —but he was at liberty to speak of the great benefit which the nation at large had derived from Mr. Gladstone's tenure of office—(cheers)--and to bear testimony to his talent as a public man, and to his worth as a private gentleman. (Great cheering.) But returning to the question of our future coal supply, it was one on which he hardly cared to give an opinion. It was one with respect to which the Crown had acted very wisely by appointing a com mission of inquiry, and he had not the slightest doubt that the commission would bring to light an amount of information which would prove of the highest value. (Hear, hear.) As to how far they would be able to arrive at a complete and satisfac tory conclusion he had, however, some doubt. No one felt more respect than he for the opinions of geologists, but it must be remembered that, not standing the groat progress it had made within the last few years, geology was still a young and in complete science. Geologists, like other men, were apt to arrive at wrong conclusions from the pre mises before them. lie remembered an old friend of his telling him that a distinguished geologist once called upon him at his house, and standing at his drawing-room window, admired the prospect before him, praising the beauty of the garden, the pic turesqueness of the ornamental lake, and the gene ral loveliness of the situation. But his chief congra tulations were reserved for his host in the matter of the geological character of the ground, which, he said, showed to a certainty that rich strata of coal lay under their feet. His host pressing him for par ticulars, the geologist pointed to a piece of rock on the margin of the lake, which he declared was a never-failing indication of coal, and it was not till he was informed that the rock bad been carted from a distance of ten miles that he gave up his theory of the existence of coal be- neath his friend's drawing-room floor. (Laughter and applatlse.) Now, he (Earl Granville) did not by the relation of that true story mean to imply any disrespect for the science of geology, but he merely wished to show that it was not wise to rely altogether upon the diction of geologists with re spect to the exhaustion of our coal mines. Ile heartily hoped, however, that the prediction of the geologists with regard to the Prior's Lee Coal Mine would be amply realised, and that it would continue to yield a rich harvest for 50 years to come, adding largely to the national wealth and to the prosperity of the county of Salop. (Loud cheers.) In reply to the toast of " The members of Parlia ment for the southern division of the county," M r . R. J. MORE, M.P., said it was the question able practices at the public dinners in that county, which afforded the members of the House of Com- mons almost the sole opportunity of meeting their constituents, for politics to be excluded from the after-dinner speeches, and the members were ex- petted to talk about the very thing of which the pro babilities were they knew less than any one in the room, viz., agriculture. (Cheers and laughter.) He remembered when in his Eclogues Virgil had been singing through a great many lines about sheep and shepherds, brooks and pastures, he said, " Let us try a little higher strain"-(laughter)—and he (Mr. More) thought that a little higher strain was then suggested by the presence among them of Earl Gran ville to partake in the celebration of a discovery which promised continued and increased prosperity to Shropshire (Cheers.) With regard to what a _ _ _ rev. speaker had hinted as to his (Mr. More's) views about a reform bill introduced by Lord Derby, he could only say that great as would be the disappoin t- ment to some portions of the Liberals if their own party had not the honour of introducing that reform the necessity of which was conceded on all sides, yet he believed that if Lord Derby's Government brought forward an honest reform bill, the majority of the Liberal party would be found following the advice given by Mr. Gladstone on a late occasion at Salis bury by offering to the bill no factious opposition. (hear.) The bill would be judged upon its own merits, and if when its provisions became known bis constituents would like to meet him and discuss the matter, nothing would give him more pleasure than to accept their invitation. (Cheers.) It had been said that he, like the Lilleshall Company, had dis covered a new mine in Shropshire—a mine of Libe- ralism; but he had only opened up an old vein. (A laugh and cheers.) The Lilleshall Company, he was glad to see, were looking for an immediaterecoin- pense of their labour for the past four years, but he looked for a futurereturn--(laughter and cheers)-- and he hoped that the electors of Shropshire would continue to take an intelligent interest in the exer cise of their privilege, and that they whom they re turned to represent them would intelligently take their due share in the conduct of public affairs. (Loud cheers.) Earl GRANVILLE proposed in flattering terms the health of Mr. Horton, the managing partner of the Lilleshall Company, which was duly acknowledged, other toasts of a local and private character succeed ing.

The Queen went out iu the morning, accompanied by Princess Christian ; and drove in the afternoon, accompanied by Prince and Princess Christian, to the Lynn of Lee. Princess Louise rode in the afternoon, attended by the Hon. Miss Cathcart and Lieutenant-General the Hon. C. Grey. Visit of the Prince and Princess of Wales t) Dunrobin Castle. The Prince of Wales proceeded on Wednesday from the castle to the Carrol Forest on a second deer-stalking expedition, selecting as his road the way by the sea shore, and so passing over the shoot ing ranges. He was driven in a wagonette by the Duke of Sutherland, who on arriving at the firing points resigned the reins to the hands of his royal highness, and alighted to enjoy a few minutes' chat with various of the competitors. The prince re cognised several of the shots and acknowledged their salute. He was dressed in deer stalking cos tume, wearing a suit of tweeds under an Inverness cape. After a few minutes' stay the Duke of Sutherland resumed his seat, and the royal party drove off—firing being suspended until they got clear of the ranges. Prince Edward of Saxe-Wei mar, Earl Spencer (who engaged in the competition of the All-corners' prizes), Countess Spencer, Lord Ronald Leveson-Gower, Lord Archibald Campbell, the Hon. L. Agar Ellis, Mr. Loch, Q.C. (commis sioner to the duke), and others, were also on the ground in the early part of the day. In the afternoon the ground was visited by a party of ladies from the castle. About half-past 3 o'clock the Princess of Wales, accompanied by the Duchess of Sutherland, drove over to the ranges in a carriage drawn by four horses, with outriders, and remained for some time witnessing the shooting for the second All-Comers' prizes and for a sweepstakes which had been got up at the shorter ranges. The carriage was brought up quite close to the firing points, where Earl Spencer, Major Jopp, of Aberdeen, and other crack shots were at the time engaged; and these gentle men had the good fortune to make excellent prac tice during the ladies' stay. The princess wore a dress of the Sutherland tartan pattern, and a cashmere jacket with black silk collar and lappets trimmed with white braid. Her hat was a drab straw, trimmed with scarlet velvet and feather. After half an hour's visit, the party drove off to the ground by the ranges—firing being again suspended until the shooting ground was cleared. While the princess's party remained on the ground the number of spectators, which was very consider able, was increased;by the arrival of a large number of ladies, who were evidently more highly inte rested in the appearance and dress of her royal highness and her noble hostess and friends than in the progress of the shooting. The Prince of Wales enjoyed good sport. Several deer were started, but a good shot was not obtained until the afternoon, when his royal highness wounded a fine stag, which was followed up, and, after half a mile's run, was again fired at, and fell to the prince's gun. The stag is one of the finest that has been killed in the duke's forests this season, and weighed 18 stone. His Royal Highness the Duke of Edinburgh, who was shooting on the opposite side of the forest ou Ben-a-Bragghie, or Ben-Vragghie, as it is variously pronounced and spelled here, also killed a fine deer—the second which has fallen to his gun this week. On Tuesday the Prince of Wales did not obtain a good shot. The Duke of Edinburgh will pay a visit to Earl Grosveuor's shooting-lodge at Stan, near Lairg, this day (Saturday.) Mar iage of the Hon. Julian Fane and Lady Adine Cowper. This morning the Hon. Julian Henry Charles Fane (brother of the Earl of Westmoreland, C. 8.), Secretary to the British Embassy in Paris, was married in the parish church of St. James's, Picca dilly, to the Lady Adiue Alice Anne Cowper, second daughter of the late Earl and of the Countess Cowper, sister of the present Earl, Lord Lieu tenant of Bedfordshire, and granddaughter of Viscountess Palmerston. The ceremony took place at half-past 11, and the church was full. The bride, dressed in white trimmed with Brussels lace, and wearing a wreath of orange blossoms, was attended by her brother, Earl Cowpor, who gave her away ; and following her as bridesmaids were four young ladies dressed in white, with crimson trimmings—the Ladies Florence and Amabel Cowper (hersisters), Lady Grace Fane (daughter of the Earl and Countess of Westmoreland), and the Honourable Alice Jocelyn, daughter of Vis countess Jocelyn and the late Viscount Jocelyn, M.P., and granddaughter of Viscountess Palmerston. The bridegroom's best man was Mr. W. Vernon Har court, Q.C. The service was read by the Rev. Thomas P. Ferguson, Rector of Shenfield, Essex, assisted by the Rev. Prebendary Kempe, Rector of St. James's, and chaplain to the Queen. After the attestation the wedding breakfast was given by the Countess Cowper to a limited circle, at her town residence, 4, St. James's-square. The utmost pri vacy was observed, and, by special order of the Countess Cowper, all information was with held.
