A grand affair took place last night in honour of the celebration of the first anniversary of the West Herts Agricultural Society. A brilliant assembly appeared to do honour to the occasion, and several interesting speeches were . made. Mr. J. Lora, in proposing "The House of Lords," men tioned the Earl of CLARENDON in terms of well merited eulogy, and took occasion to observe that the " House of Lords was as necessary to the well being and welfare of the country as that every loco motive should have its safety-valve for the security of the traveller." There is great truth in this remark, for, however the advocates of levelling doctrines may sneer, there is a great protec tion in the representation of all interests, and the country is not likely to be readily disturbed in its institutions, nor injured in its prospects, by sudden and startling changes, when some of those who make the laws are beyond the influ ence of the sordid motives and prejudiced views that very often actuate those who are struggling for existence, and have not so much time for reflecticn. The Earl of CLARENDON is one of those public men who are independent of party and politics, for they command the respect of all by their personal quali ties and individual characteristics. The noble lord delivered a very interesting address, which bore re- ferenee to many points of importance at present. The noble earl commenced by making allusion to the House of Lords, to which he had the honour to be long, and he remarked that the members of that august assembly were recruited from time to time by men of immense intellect, and whose industry and great public services have entitled them to the rewards of their Sovereign, and that it was in many respects deserving of regard and esteem by the country at large. Lord CLARENDON made some observations upon the position of the Government with respect to the great cattle-plague now raging, and with justice remarked that they were in a very awkward state, for the wildest theories were propounded, and on one side they were blamed for apathy, and on the other for over haste to interpose. Very little was known concerning this malady, and the authori ties have therefore been compelled to grope in the dark for the proper remedies and the necessary modes of dealing with the disease. Stringent orders were given respecting the importation of cattle, and whole cargoes were detained if but one was infected. Besides this, Orders in Council were issued, as cir cumstances seemed to require them, and more espe cially two lesser orders subsequently given are of importance, one prohibiting the bringing to London of animals except for immediate slaughter, and the other empowering the local authorities to prevent an imals being brought to fairs and markets. These efforfs cannot but be productive of great benefit, if the effects are not immediately apparent. The noble Earl spoke very forcibly as to the diff eren t measures which a despotic government wou ld have adopted, but which would not have been in accordance with the feelings of the p eop l e of England. A Royal Commission is at work to in quire into the particulars of this formidable malady, and this is in every respect a wise step to take ; and, on the whole, it must be admitted that, in explaining the plans of the Government the noble lord made out a very good case for them, and showed that they had lost no time and neglected no opportunity considring the scant information that was in their possession on the sub ' He said that his object in thus dwell- ject. ing at length upon what had been done at head-quarters was to show how necessary it was for people to co-operate with the Government and meet them half way, or else the Orders in Council and other attempts would be rendered valueless and insignificant. In too many cases selfishness and unwillingness have frus trated the wise efforts of the authorities, and such conduct cannot be too greatly censured. One instance was given in this spirit, which speaks volumes as to the difficulties which impede the road to improvement. The other day an order was given prohibiting the holding of a fair, and in con sequence the town was covered with placards s'cat ing that the arrivals had been sent to different fa isms, and thus the precautions for public safety were en tirely nullified. This conduct, which is truly stig matised as " selfish ingenuity," has done a great deal of damage, and the community in general cannot be too careful not to contravene, directly or indirectly, the orders issued in such an emergency as the present. Nothing can possibly excuse the course pursued by those who thus trade upon the dangers and difficulties of their fellow-men, and spread disease about in a wholesale fashion. It must be very disheartening to those who are striving to do their utmost to mitigate the evils to find their efforts circumvented in such an unscrupulous man ner. It is to be hoped that the earnest exhortation of Lord CLARENDON will have due effect upon those weak and indifferent individuals who do great harm by their proneness to assist unprincipled persons, and by their over slighting of due precautions. The noble earl's speech was as appropriate as it could possibly have been at this juncture, and he has done his utmost to diffuse useful knowledge and impart sound advice. As he stated, in conclusion, the mag nitude of the danger was his reason for insisting so much upon co-operation with the measures of the Government, and only by this means can we hope for any lasting success or speedy deliverance. Sir E. B. LrrToN made a short speech, which was very well received, and in the course of his remarks dilated upon the advantages of agricultural pursuits in affording a neutral ground upon which rivals in politics might meet. Indeed he said his flattering reception made him almost fancy that " instead of being a knight of the shire, I was one of those war like knights in the old days of chivalry, who, during the suspension of arms, found the warmest welcome among the heroes of the hostile camp." The right hon. baronet dwelt upon the evils-of " indiscriminate slaughter" in the cases of diseased cattle, now un happily so prevalent. Such a course will add famine to pestilence, and cannot possibly produce remedial effects. In pursuance of this topic he adduced a very appropriate remark of Lord NORTH'S in the American war, " I am sure I don't know if all generals frighten the enemy, but I do know that they frighten me." Now this applies to the present crisis, the enemy is the cattle disease, and the gene rals are the veterinary surgeons. In the history of the world, said the right hon. baronet, no one could say that an epidemic has attacked man or beast which has carried off all who are affected by it. Well may Sir E. B. LYTTON affirm that those who declare that there is no remedy but slaughter argue against the universal experience of history and against the laws of nature. Altogether this meeting in Hertford shire was one of the most successful of the many agricultural gatherings that have recently taken place, and the chief topic of interest that now engages public attention in such respects was treated with becoming consideration, and all who attended the assembly must have gone away con vinced that care and caution were requisite auxili aries with which to confront the great calamity now threatening. The State Convention of South Carolina appears to have resolved upon adopting a very vigorous line of conduct. The line which the members of the Convention might decide upon adopting was a critical matter. South Carolina is unmistakeably a Southern State—Southern in its feelings and its sentiments, and foremost in the stirring and heroic history of the war. The siege of Charleston will rank in history with some of the most thrilling nar ratives of endurance and fortitude. Though the flag that was so often shot away from Fort Sumter, to be as often replaced by the untiring spirits that held the fort, was at length hauled mourn fully down, it was only when the final collapse of the Confederacy rendered further resist ance useless. SHERMAN'S memorable march south wards was the signal of the close of the war, and not until the close was unmistakeably at hand did South Carolina abandon every effort. It is, therefore, from no lukewarmness in the national cause that she has frankly arraigned herself on the side of order and reconstruction. It was an important question which course she would pursue, as her example would doubtless influence many who still clung to the dream of independence. The Convention have come manfully forward in this emergency, and have shown a degree of sound judgment and moderation, which do not always exist simultaneously with more warlike and daring qualities. The Convention repeated the Se cession ordinance, abolished slavery, gave the elec tion of Governor to the people, directed a commis sion to submit a code to the Legislature for the protection of the negroes, and endorsed the admini stration. The members did not shrink from an explanation of their conduct, but plainly declared that the people had been defeated both by the sword and by political majorities, so that it was hopeless to continue the contest, and they therefore passed a resolution declaring the Union to be the paramount consideration. The late war, they said, arose from a belief in the Constitutional right of Secession, and was, therefore, not strictly a rebel lion, so that the Convention suggested to the PRESIDENT that he should not enforce the penalties due to a rebellion. Further, the Convention pleaded earnestly on behalf of JEFFER SON DAVIS, ALEXANDER STEPHENS, Governor MAGRATH, and others, and their willing acceptance of President JOHNSON'S policy gives them a right to enforce the claims of mercy. The PRESIDENT is supposed to be personally leaning to the side of clemency ; and, if so, he must be much gratified at the course adopted by the South Carolina Conven tion, which has materially strengthened the hands of Government, and has given him an excuse for extending his pardons. Further, the fact of South Carolina having availed herself so promptly of the opportunity to restore order serves as a conclusive answer to those bitter partisans of an extreme policy who urge that if favour were shown to the South it would be turned against the Union. The Alabama Convention has also repealed slavery and recognised the Federal Government, so that the Washington authorities have gained two important points. The wise and moderate men of all parties must, long before this, have become con vinced that Mr. JOHNSON is consulting the real interests of the country, and is adopting the surest method of re-establishing the extremeUnionb Republicanyhisconciliatory policy. The Radicals and party are naturally furious at what they consider the] PRESIDENT'S desertion of their cause. He whom they made their leader and representative, " the MOSES of the coloured race," they now consider has entered the ranks of their enemies. There is a strong opposition organising THE SUB, LONDON, WEDNESDAY E V ENIN G, OCTOBER 11, 186 E. against him, and even a talk of impeachment when Congress meets. Impeachment for what ? may be asked. For restoring tranquillity and order, for elevating civil above military law, for, resuscitating trade and commerce, and in spiring men with some hope and confidence in the American future. The real ground of offence is that President JOHNSON resists the desire of the New England party to parcel out the vast territories of the South among the " loyal " Northerners and freed blacks. They cannot accuse him of abandon ing the Union nor of upholding slavery, for aboli tion has been made, a sine qua non of reconstruction. As for the negro suffrage, that is a matter which all prudent men feel had better be left to time. America has had enough, in all conscience, of sudden and violent changes ; she now wants peace internally and externally to allow the troubled elements which have been stirred up during the long period of un paralleled commotion to subside into quietude and order. It will be necessary to teach the negroes how to use their freedom and their new-found inde pendence before they can be instructed in political knowledge ; and unless they are excited by fana tics, who stir them up by inflammatory language, it is not likely that any considerable portion of the liberated slaves care much about the possession of the suffrage. If it iswished to establish freed negroes permanently in the South, it would be surely wiser to allow the whites and blacks to grow accustomed to living on equal terms, and to learn mutual re spect and forbearance before they are forced into a sudden and at present unsuitable political equality. The negro question is likely, thanks to the mistaken conduct of some fanatical politicians, to be Ame rica's difficulty for some time to come, and there are even rumours of a very wide-spread disaffection among the negroes, and some threatening symp toms of insubordination and armed combination among them. Any such outbreak would, no doubt, be promptly checked, but it would be in every sense most deplorable. It would incense the whites against the blacks, it would put the most formidable obstacles in the way of the negro, and would probably, by its scenes of violence and bloodshed, renew the old conflict between the North and South in feeling and in ar gument, if not in action. All must hope and pray that such a catastrophe may be averted, and, no doubt, the authorities will take care to be well-in formed of the proceedings of the negroes in the several Southern States. If those politicians who call themselves the particular friends of the negro would really forward his interests, they will strive to calm his excitability, they will teach him reason and prudence, and while helping him to prove he is worthy of political privileges, they will take the most humane as well as the most constitutional means of enabling him to obtain them. LATEST INTELLIGENCE. (REUTER'S TELEGRAMS.) AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY, PESTH, OCT. 10 (Evening). The Pesti Naplo of to-day, in an article upon the rumoured dissolution of the Committee of Control for the Management of the Public Debt, elected by the Reichsrath, states that this measure is not in sisted upon by Hungary, since she is in no way in terested in the committee. The Pesti Naplo admits that since the Imperial manifesto of Sept. 20 it be comes a legal impossibility for the committee to continue its functions ; but for Hungary it is en tirely indifferent whether it continues to exist or not. A constitutional control over the finances can only be obtained by a real national representation of the Empire, and not by any fiction of such re presentation. Great agitation prevails to-day in Pesth, on ac count of the meeting of the Committee of the Comitat of Pesth, in which the electoral question is being discussed. GREECE. ATHENS, OCT. 6.

Steward) is finishing her course of good service gloriously, and in a manner worthy of herself and of the men who have manned her so often under circumstances of varied risk and peril. Last night about seiren o'clock two gunswere fired, and rockets were thrown up from the Cockle Floating-Light, a little to the northward of Caister. The night was dark and rainy, and a strong wind was blowing from about E.S.E. with a good deal of sea on the beach. The b ca-,aimen launched the Caister lifeboat of the Na tional Institution without a moment's loss of time and on their way to the Cockle Light, about half a mile to the N. W. of it, they fell in with a brig of about 100 tons at anchor close by the breakers of the Cockle Sand. Approaching her as near as they could, and ascertaining that she wanted assistance, they bore away, let go their anchor, and wore to the ship, which they found had run foul of the floating light. The ship had carried away a part of her bulwarks and her port main rigging, and three of her crew had jumped on board, ‘ "the light. The beachmen, having got to the vessel with much difficulty, put six of the lifeboat's crew aboard the ship, slipped her anchor, and took her over the north end of the Cockle Sand, following her with the lifeboat through a heavy sea, which at times nearly threw the ship on her beam-ends. Having brought her up in Hemsby Hole, they anchored and waited till daylight, when they went off with the life-boat to the Cockle Light and brought the three men who they learnt had jumped on to the light vessels. Caister, one of them, was afterwards taken to Yarmouth Hospital, his foot being badly crushed. The ship was taken in to the roads, and, I believe, into Yarmouth harbour, by a steam-tug. The name of the brig is the Kathleen of Hartlepool from Fecamp in France, with coals. TYNEMOUTH, NORTHUMBERLAND, Tuesday Night. Another sad catastrophe has occurred at the mouth of the Tyne (says P. J. Messent, Esq., C.E.)e An old brig, the Medora, of South Shields, laden with coals, on entering during a very heavy gale from E.S.E., and high sea, had her stern bulwarks and stearing gear, and probably part of the lower stern knocked away just before reaching the bar. She then became unmanageable. and after a few minutes sunk without apparently striking the ground at all, taking with her all hands, I fear, about seven men. The Tynemouth (the Con stance) lifeboat of the National Lifeboat Insti tution was promptly launched as soon as the danger of the vessel was observed, but it was found impossible to take her across the Channel on account of the strong northerly set of the ebb tide. The three Shields lifeboats were also out, but could not go through the tremendous seas, although they had the tide in their favour, while it threatened to take the Constance out to sea beyond the wreck. The Constance encountered some very violent seas, but would have been able to reach the vessel in time had it been flood instead of ebb tide. The wreck occurred at 10 a.m. The sea is still very heavy, and I fear further disasters, although a great many vessels had entered safely. Lifeboat at Portsmouth. - - Yesterday the lifeboat which was recently sent to Hayling Island was brought round to Portsmouth. Preceded by the band of the sth Hants Rifles, the lifebqat was taken through the principal streets, the mayor and other influential persons taking part in the proceedings. The boat was subsequently taken to Southsea, and was there launched off the beach in the presence of a large number of persons. The boat was about a fortnight ago cent to Hayling Island, when the Bishop of Chichester named it the " Olive Leaf," the boat being the gift of Messrs. Leaf, Sons, and Co., to the National Life boat Institution. The bishop was afterwards pre sented by the institution with a fine photograph of a lifeboat like the " Olive Leaf" going off to a wreck. In acknowledging its receipt he sent the following characteristic acknowledgment of the same : "Palace, Chichester, Oct. 3, 1865. " beg gratefully to acknowledge the safe receipt of the interesting and beautiful photograph of one of the boats of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution going off to a wreck, presented to me in so compliMentary a manner t if the committee of that institution. I value it highly, and shall endeavour to preserve it as an instructive and encouraging representation of the way in which your in stitution shows our seafaring population that their lands men brothers are not insensible or regardless of their diffi culties and dangers, but will always assist to provide for their preservation the most approved appliances that science and art can suggest. The day of the launch of your boat, the " Olive Leaf," at Hayling Island, was a joyous day for your institution, and an augury, I trust, of many a triumph of life saved by God's merciful owning of human efforts, amid the threatenings of roaring winds and angry waves.—l have, &c., "A. J. CHICHESTER. " To the Secretary of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution." DISEASE OF SILKWORMS.—The Minister of Agri culture having requested M. Pasteur to turn his attention to the disease of silkworms, which does not ap pear to have abated in any perceptible degree, the learned physiologist last week presented a paper to the Academy on the subject. After premising that the question was entirely new to him, ho stated that on the 7th Juno last he arrived at Alais, where he selected a Kokh, or silkworm nursery, for his observations. He had been particularly struck with a fact mentioned in M. de Quatrefages's work on the subject, viz., that in the body of the diseased silkworm the microscope reveals certain particles considered by most authors as a symptom of the disorder. Those corpuscles exist in profusion in certain worms that cannot spin •their cocoon, and especially in the adipose matter situated under the skin, and in the silk- p roducing organs. The chrysalides and butterflies offered the same appearances. The worms afflicted with those black spots from which the disease has derived the name of pebrine also contained an immenoe number of the corpuscles. M. Pasteur was particularly stru ck with one circum stance, which seems to have escaped the attention of former observers. In one of the rooms of the Bokh, Japanese silk wormr, received from the Socidte d'Acclimata tion, hid been feared with such remarkable success that the eggs obtained from 35 kilogrammes of the cocoons spu n had been collected for p ro p a g ation. In a second r oom, on the contrary, there were indeed Japanese silkworms also, but bought by a private dealer ; they were all dis eased. And yet, in examining the chrysalides and butter flies of the successful brood, M. Pasteur found every one of them affected with the corpuscles, while the worms of the bad lot had scarcely any. Hence our auth or arr i ves at the conclusion that the disease properly affects the chrysalis and butterfly, and not the worm ; and that con sequently the efforts of entomologists and physiologists should be particularly directed towards finding reme dies against tho disease, not in the larva, but in the pupa tsate ; and it is in this sense he proposes to continue his researches. PERIODICITY OF STORMS.—In a paper recently addressed to the Academy of Sciences, M. Fournet gives an account of the results he has arrived at after a series of meteorological observations continued uninter ruptedly for a series of 30 years, in the valley of the Saone. As a result of 3,300 observations, he finds that the winter —December, January, and February —is singularly free from electrical meteors. It is known that what are called the blank days (journee centres) abound in these months ; but it is not known that the season is apt to open with a storm, usually on the 2d or 3d of December, and that on the 15th another storm recurs. "One might be tempted," he says, "to consider these winter explosions as the last expression of the dying energy of the autumn ; but this idea is set aside by the observation of the phenomena which occur in mid-winter. These are manifested espe cially on the 15th of January. They accompany the rainy phase—a phase remarkable by the overflow of the Saone. At the end of February winter often terminates with a storm as it began with one." In March the stormy period of spring is moderately introduced, and it is not until the 7th that we perceive a well-defined electrical tendency. This tendency increases rapidly, and about the 22d of May we reach the period of intensest evolution of storms. Summer opens placidly, and even the sth of June is as free from electric disturbance as the ordinary days of winter ; but immediately afterwards the causes cumulate, and the Bth, 12th, and 18th of June are tole rably certain to see storms. The 20th of Jnno is gene rally a stormy day. July is a period which contrasts by its quiet with the turbulence of June and August. Up to the 12th it preserves something of that placidity, which is then interrupted by the most electrically disturbed period of the year. It ceases on the 18th—that is to say, it is composed of six days divided by a moment of profound calm. After its rains the temperature diminishes, and the rest of the season, until winter, presents few changes of violent disturbances. Nevertheless for autumn we must note the critical days, September 1,9, 23, 30, fol lowed by the crisis of October 7 to 11. We may remark that the fact of our having had six weeks and upwards of fine weather up to Saturday the 7th last, inclusively, and of its having changed to rain this day the 9th, certainly tends to confirm M. Fournet's observations, Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Kean in America. (From the Boston Post of Sept. 26) "Age cannot wither them, nor custom stale Their infinite variety." Last night began a new era in theatricals in our city, being the first appearance, after an interim of nearly 19 years, of Charles Kean and his wife (nee Ellen Tree), before a Boston audience. Mr. Kean made his original appearance before our citizens as the " Duke of Gloster," at the Tremont Theatre, on the 22d of November, 1830. Miss Tree first appeared at the same establishment on the 20th of February, 1837, her opening performance being Julia in " The Hunchback." Mr. Kean again ap peared at the Tremont, in November and Decem ber, 1839 ; and in November, 1845, at the Howard Athenaeum. On October 19th, 1846, Mr. and Mrs. Kean commenced their last engagement in this city, at the old Federal-street Theatre. Their per formances were of the highest order of merit, and consisted mainly of the " Gamester," " Ion," and the " Stranger." We well remember, that in Com mon with nearly the entire audience—the female portion of it more especially,—" Tears trickled down our cheek" at the masterly interpretation of the sorrows of the " Stranger" and in sympathy with the no less finely portrayed characterization of that heart-broken and repentant Magdalen, "Mrs. Haller." And now these consummate workers in the mimetic art are with us once again, to de light and instruct all true lovers of the drama by the fidelity with which they interpret the works of the great master of tragedy and comedy. Mr. andAlrs. Kean bring to their support the services of Miss E. Chapman and Messrs. J. F. Cathcart and George Everett, thus enabling them to present their pieces with a strength of cast and a completeness of detail hitherto unapproached in this city. The immense and enthusiastic audience which crowded the theatre last night was indeed pheno minal. It was composed (to borrow a line from the original prologue to " Henry VIII.") of " The first and happiest hearers of the town." Literature, art, and the sciences were represented ; wealth, beauty, and fashion lent their presence to the scene ; the student and the octogenarian play goers (who emerges from his retirement only on rare occasions such as the present) were there ; and each and all were lavish in their contribution to the general welcome accorded to the stars. of the even ing. We question if a more brilliant or discrimi nating audience has ever been seen in Boston. The pieces selected for the initial performance were Shakspere's play of " Henry VIII.," termi nating with the fall of Wolsey ; and the elder Col man's comedy of " The Jealous Wife," reduced to two acts. " Henry VIII." is perhaps the most perfect of the entire series of Shakspere's his torical plays. With but one exception—that of making the birth of Elizabeth occur subsequent to the death of Catherine—it is entirely correct in its chronological events. The first three acts of the play only were given last night, very judiciously as we think, as perhaps all the interest in the play terminates with the downfall of the " Scarlet Line." But to the performance. Mr. Kean gave us a truly fine impersonation of the " great child of honor, Cardinal Wolsey." The first scene, although quite a short one, was the perfection of acting. The entire part was invested with a grandeur of character becoming to the " man of an unbounded stomach." But it was in the third act that Mr. Kean was indeed great. The entire act, culminat ing in the downfall of the Cardinal, was worked up with the intensity of dramatic skill, and the speeches to Cromwell after his fall from the good graces of the King had become apparent, were given with a tenderness and a pathos that touched all hearts. The entire performance was indeed one of rare excellence. The Katherine of Mrs. Kean was an excellent support. Her plea to the King in mitigation of the grievances of the over taxed Commons was finely rendered. The character was invested with a dignity and grace, and an understanding of the part, which commended itself to all. In her own trial she was highly affecting, giving a vivid representation of distressed majesty. Mr. J. F. Cathcart, a most excellent actor, as Cromwell ; Mr. George Everett as the noble poet Surry, and Miss Chapman as Anne Boleyn, were all that could be desired. The Henry Vlll.—the royal Bluebeard—of Mr. Frank Mayo was capitally made up and correctly costumed. The Buckingham of Mr. George Clair was well conceived, and was one of the best perso nations of the evening. Mr. Wylie as Lord Sands did remarkably well, and Mr. Collins as the Duke of Suffolk was entitled to commendation. The part of the Duke of Norfolk was entrusted to Mr. Burns. We believe the Howard family, of which the Duke is the head, is an English f amily _ and why its representative at the time of Bluff Hall spoke with an Irish brogue is beyond our compre hension. The Duke, moreover, was the father of the Earl of Surrey, but, according to the make-up of Mr. Burns, he appeared some ten years younger than his illustrious son. We should scarcely have noticed this, were it not for the fact that young actors of the present day think the " be-all and the end-all" of their profession is merely to be ac quainted with the words of their parts. A course of historical reading is, as a general thing, as bene ficial to actors as to members of other professions. The piece was placed upon the stage in a most excellent manner, and reflected great credit on Mr. France. The trial of Queen Katharine was a faith ful reproduction of Hogarth's celebrated picture. The evening's entertainment concluded with the " Jealous Wife," in which Mrs. Kean recalled her old triumphs. It was a magnificent performance throughout. Mr. Kean's Mr. Oakley was excellent, and the other members of the company acquitted themselves to the satisfaction of all. Liverpool Cotton Market—This Day.

WIVES AND BEEFSTEAKS.—Of a home-loving na ture, happy in an affectionate wife and a comfort able income ; surrounded with olive branches numerous enough to make a pleasant murmur in the land, but not so thickly planted as to interfere with my view of domestic felicity, lam doubtless an enviable man. But there is a cloud even in my matrimonial horizon. On cer tain evenings 1 am driven to wander from my home, tormented by a longing which I cannot reveal to my wife, but which must at all risks be satisfied. At night I return, having exorcised the demon for a time. It is recorded in the comedies of Aristophanes, that no less a man than Hercules was occasionally the slave of a maddening desire for pea soup; even so does my soul periodically pine for a beefsteak. Now, I have an ex cellent plain cook, who suits me, and does my joints to a turn. As the Yankees say, she is " a whale at chops." Except when we dine as the Russians don't, she is equal to most emergencies. But she cannot cook a steak ; nor did I ever know one of her sisterhood who eould,—Once a Week .....~, 5.,..-. , 611 rt Clank HER MAJESTY. BALMORAL, OCt. 7.

Having proceeded for a few miles in this . direction; the carriage was stopped, and the Queen and party, assisted by ponies and guides from the Castle, proceeded by the path to the wide level on the crest of giant Ben-a-bourd.

THE ELOPEMENT IN STAFFORDSHIRE.--At Wed nesbury, yesterday, the magistrates investigated the charge which had been preferred against David Rose ani Henry Rose, ironmasters, of having locked up and ill treated David Rose, son of the elder defendant, because he had eloped with one of his father's servants, named Annie York, to whom ho had got married before his relations could prevent the ceremony, as they wished to do. The proceeding had been instituted .by the newly made wife, who alleged that her husband was 'kept from her by force. Sarah Langford, the young woman who gave evidence on the first hearing of the case, repeated her testimony, which it will be remembered was in favour of the charge. The bridegroom, David Rose, was then put into the box. The court was very crowded, and intense in: terest was manifested.to see the (gay and self-willed bride groom. He appeared anything but a spirited or dashing lover —more like a sneaking schoolboy. He stated that after he was taken home by his brother he willingly undertook to go to South America, but, on receiving notice that he was to sail on the next day, he refused, because the notice was so short. His father then boxed his ears, and he threw himself on the floor, and, drawing a what-not upon him, injured his arm and eye. He then went upstairs to his brother's room, went to bed, and remained in the room until Sunday afternoon. Being cross-examined, he said he was sixteen years old on the Ist of December last, and left school at Christmas to complete his education on the Continent. Ho eloped with Annie York by arrangement with her and the first witness. He went to York's house. Walked with her and her brother, who carried their clothes in a carpet-bag to Birmingham. Thence they went by train to Warwick. There the brother of the bride ap plied to several clergymen to marry them, but vainly They were finally married at the office of the Registrar at Kenilworth. He was under the influence of beer all this time, but was sober. He had but one shilling when he left home, and the brother of the bride paid the expenses of the wedding tour. After the ceremony the bridegroom said he put up at the Bear-Inn, Kenilworth, where his brother Henry found him. He willingly returned home with him. His father gave him a choice as to the future, and he elected to go abroad. To this intent he went to Birmingham, and made an arrangement with a commercial gentleman there to go out to South America in his interests, his father undertaking to pay £2,000 with him. On the Tuesday after the alleged assault the gentleman came for him, saying the vessel would start next day. He became sulky and refused to go ; and after his father and brother had boxed his ears he went up to bed, and asked his brother William to lock him in his bed-room. He did so, and remained a willing prisoner until Sunday. Then he willingly went on a tour in Wales, and knew nothing of these proceedings until his return on Saturday. He acknowledged, however, that while confined in his room he pushed a letter under the door for his wife to the last wit ness. The Bench dismissed the case without waiting for the defence. The crowd hissed the bridegroom, but sym pathised with the bride, as they separately left the court. ACCIDENTAL EXPLOSION OF A SHELL.—On Mon day morning, while the Depot Brigade of Royal Artillery at Sheerness were at drill, a 7-inch (1101 b.) shell exploded on the parade ground. A number of gunners were engaged driving one of " Boxer's time-concussion fuses" into a shell previously to firing it from an Armstrong gun on the centre bastion, when the fuse accidentally broke, causing the shell to explode, thereby wounding two gunners who were fixing the fuse. Fragments of the shellmere driven a great distance, but beyond breaking a gun-carriage and slightly damaging some of the adjacent buildings in the dockyard, no further harm was done, although nearly 200 men were on the parade ground at the time. The wounded gunners were conveyed to the military hospital, when t was ascertained that their injuries were not serious. STATE OF TRADE MANCHESTER, Oct. 10.—There has been much less doing in the market than last week for most kinds of yarn and cloth, and prices are in some cases weaker. Shipping yarns are an exception. The market has been very firm for these, and a fair amount of business is reported to-day for Bombay and the Mediterranean at extreme prices. Spinners of these yarns are deeply under contract, and show no disposition to take less than the full prices asked. Business closes firm, with an upward tendency: There are many orders in the market which for the present are held back, pending the decision of the Bank as to further raising discounts. For home trade yarns we have had a quieter market, buyers holding rather aloof from business, which has been done at lid. per lb. decline from Friday's rates. The cloth market is necessarily firm on account of cotton maintaining its high price at Liverpool, and in consequence of there being little pressure of manufactured goods in the market. Although quo tations are high, they have been more or less nominal for some days past, as buyers have not shown the slightest disposition to operate at these rates. There has been some speculation in resale lots, but at such irregular prices as not to afford any reliable rule of quotations. There has not been much buying for foreign markets, as merchants in many of them can suit themselves better in those markets than here. For instance, prices iu Bombay are 25 per cent. lower than here, and buyers prefer telegraphing their orders to Bombay rather than executing them in Manches ter, and this has been done to a considerable extent. Manufacturers are generally very deeply under con tract, and the scarcity of yarn wherewith to execute them is so great as to afford very little prospect of lower rates for the present, though fresh orders to make are, of course, almost out of question at the rates demanded. The Americans are doing much less. In fact, they had supplied their wants mostly a week Or two back, and it was the great amount of these which gave the upward impulse in prices. LEEDS, 10th.—Notwithstanding that the morning was very wet, there was about an average attendance of buyers in the cloth halls this morning. An ave rage business was done, and fully as large an ag gregate quantity of cloth was sold as at any recent Tuesday's market. The purchases, however, were miscellaneous, including both plain and fancy goods of medium as well as heavy makes. The export houses arc mostly doing a good business, and the little quietness noticeable in the home trade is at tributable to the protracted summer having delayed the actual wearing of autumn fabrics. The reports from the surrounding district show healthy activity among the woollen manufacturers generally. Prices of wool, yarns, and goods are equally firm. Cotton yarns keep advancing, and that is one cause of an increase in the demand for unions of good manufac ture. NOTTINGHAM, 10th.—At the Exchange-hall to day there was a limited attendance, and the demand for lace yarns was quiet at the - prices of the week previous. For hosiery yarns recent rates were for the most part maintained. Silks about the same. There was a moderate demand for brown nets, and prices were without material afternoon. ROCHDALE, 9th.—The market was quieter than usual to-day, and very little business was done either in plain or fancy goods. Both manufacturers and merchants, however, were sanguine of an improve ment as soon as the weather has become more sea sonable. The plain flannel trade is at this time duller than it has been known for years, and yet goods do not succumb with regard to price. In the fancy department there is more animation, and there are some would-be buyers of printed flannels who cannot get the supplies they want owing to the pre engagements of many manufacturers. Very few parcels of Yorkshire goods changed hands to-day, but supplies are increasing in anticipation of colder weather. Transactions in wool are of the most piecemeal kind, but staplers are firm in maintaining prices. THE DEFENDERS OF GAETA.—A deputation of the German nobility has presented to the ex-King and Queen of Naples a buckler, offered by them to the royal pair as a homage of devotion. It is of beautiful workman ship in silver, chased with gold. In the middle of it are seen Francois 11., and Marie-Sophie, and all round are re presented the principal events of the siege of Gaeta. The offering is accompanied by an album containing 40,000 sig natures of the German aristocracy. THE CHARGE AGAINST THE MAGISTRATE'S SON AT STAFFORD.—Yesterday morning Mr. G. F. Griffin and Thyrza Tunstall were again brought before the magis trates, charged with the concealment of the birth of a fe male child, the illegitimate offspring of the femateprisoner, and the body of which, it was alleged, the male prisoner disposed of by throwing it into the river Mawddach. From former reports of this affair, it will be remembered that the coroner's inquest on the body of the child resulted in a verdict of "Found dead," as the injuries which prodUced death might or might not have been caused in the act of self-delivery. On the prisoners being placed at the bar, Colonel Hogg said that, owing to some misapprehension as to the power of the bench to deal with the matter at Staf ford,or whether the case should bat ied in Merionethshire ) the witnesses were not in attendance, and, after some dis cussion, the case was again adjourned. The bail was en larged, but in the case of the woman Tunstall, she had to find three bail 9# .4104 each. Deferred VATS. Cash.

The quotation of gold at Paris is about 3 per mine pm., end the short exchange on London is 25.30 per £1 sterling. On comparing these rates with the English Mint price of £3 17s. 104 d. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is about 2-IGths per cent. dearer in London tuan in Paris. By advic:a from Hamburg the price of gold is 428 per marl and the short exchange on London is 13.6 per .£1 st(rlin . Standard gold at the Englidt Mint price is, thereore, at about 2-10ths per cent. dearer in Hamburg than in London. The course of exchange at New York on London for bills at 60 days' sight is 1011 to 110 per cent. At these rates there is a small profit on the importation of god frJm the United States.
