In consequence of the determined attitude of the House the schedules were reached at six o'clock, and the first thing done was to agree to the towns that were in future to have only one member instead of two. In Schedule B some at tempts were made to change the towns which were to have members in the new arrang.nnent, but these were not sueces.iful ; and Mr. AYIITON aptly represented the state of feeling of the House when he said that he would postpone his amendment about Wandsworth in order not to interfere with the general desire to finish the bill at that sitting. Mr. DrsnAELI said that many points would be settled by the Boundary Commissioners, who would not be fettered by the temporary boundaries of boroughs or counties, but would be able to re-arrange them as they deemed advisable. No important alteration was made in any of the Schedules, and finally the Chairman was ordered to report progress, amid considerable cheering Mr. DISRAELI fixed upon to-morrow for the Report, which is the next stage ; but some last dying speeches of opposition were made by Lord CRANBORNE, Mr. GLADSTONE, and Sir R. PALMER, in consequence of which the right hon. gentleman wisely postponed it until Friday. It seems strange and inconsistent that so many objections should be thus interposed in the way of progress by those who profess to have the cause of Reform at heart. On the question that the preamble be agreed to, it was suggested by Sir J. K:SIGHTLEY that the bill should be printed as originally introduced, and also with the alterations, so that the House might understand how much was the property of the Government, and how much belonged to others. It would be advisable, we should think, that the factious attempts made to defeat the plans of the measure and to defer its progress be printed also, so that the country might comprehend who were the true friends to Reform, and who preferred to its accomplishment their own fancies or prejudices, or the gratification of mere selfish. motives. The Government has had, at all events, a very difficult task to per form, and the greatest credit is due to the Chancellor of the Exchequer for the skill he has displayed, and for the great moderation he has shown. What with false friends and crafty foes he has had enough to d), and it is only surprising that he has done so much. To have to meet trivial objections is more irritating than to face important obstacles, and what would have been more frivo lous than Mr. GLADSTONE'S reason for demurring to the report being taken on Thursday, namely, that there were many " local ques tions" that ought to be listened to ? To this Mr. DISRAELI said that he did not know what they were. Sir R. PALMER said that they could not give notice of the amendments which would be proposed ; and Lord CRANBORNE said that a day was not to be considered in a matter of extreme importance. We should have thought that the " extreme importance" might have induced those cavillers to forego their vexatious criticisms ; but the Chancellor of the Exchequer agreed to make Friday the day ; but even then Lord CRANBORNE tried to be facetious, and said that he thought the Chancellor of the Exchequer had better suspend the Standing Orders. But really we think that objections like this are best answered by his own succeeding observation, that this is a thing which only occurs once in a generation. No one even troubles himself to find out who took the part of Lord CRANDORNIS or Mr. BERESFORD IIorE and others in the, Reform Bill of 18:32 ; it stands out a great historical fact, and so it will be with the Reform Bill of 1867, the fame of which will survive when its opponents and detractors are overwhelmed and forgotten. There is no longer any room for doubt respet ing the fate of MAXIMILIAN. Last evening, in the House of Lords, the Earl of DERBY, in answer to a qucation from Lord STRATFORD DE RED - ELUTE, stated that he had in the course of the day received a telegram from Paris, which gave full confirmation to the previous rumours. It was from M. FAURE, to the effect that M. Mous- TIER had received a telegram from the French Minister at Mexico, dated the 27th of June, re porting that the EMPEROR had been shot on the 19th, in spite of every effort to save him. " The tone of the victorious party," so ran the tele gram, " was defiant towards all foreign Powers, including the United States." They refused to give up the body, and the French Minister, who was preparing to depart with his legation, thought it possible he might be detained as a hostage for General ALSIONTE. It is hardly probable that the Mexicans, rash and headstrong as they are, would openly provoke a quarrel with France, though, judging from what they had already done, they are inclined to overrate their own power. The Earl of DERBY, in speaking on the subject, de nounced the execution of the EMPEROR as a most unnecessary, most cruel, and most barbarous murder. "It is," said his lordship, " a murder purely gratuitous, and so far from producing any beneficial effect, it can only add to the misery which that unhappy country Mexico has suf fered for so many years." This feeling was shared by the House of Lords, as it will be by the publio at large, who have watched with deep interest the news from Mexico. When MAXIMILIAN first accepted the tottering and dangerous throne offered to him, Englishmen viewed the proceeding with some displeasure. It is always an invidious thing to attempt to establish a new form of govern ment in an alien country. Mexico was not an em pire, and MAXIMILIAN was neither a Mexican, a Spaniard, nor an Indian. He was unacquainted with the people, and although not inexperienced in government, he had certainly not been accustomed to dealing with a semi-barbarous people like the inhabitants of Mexico. But although there was much to complain of in the manner of Maxim ILIAN'S elevation to the throne, there was little fault to be found with his administration of affairs. Ile en deavoured honestly to perform his duty towards his people and to govern them well and wisely, and in this attempt he was ably seconded by his consort. Had Mexico been a civilised country, in which law and order exercised their due influence, no doubt they would have succeeded in winning the affections of the insignia of imp er i a l di gn i ty. people,hayebeen wearing and.llA 1 l I I t L h l e A Ninasni ARLORT N. might still But to have succeeded in preserving authority in the troubled state of the country, it would have needed nit a constitutional monarch, but an iron handed dictator. The men who try to govern by principle and constitutionalism arc not made for re volutions. JEFFERSON Davis proved unequal to the task of subduing the refractory planters ; and it is no discredit to MAXIMILIAN'S administrative ability that he failed to retain authority over men who care for nothing but plunder and bloodshed. Had the Mexicans been in earnest in their professions, had they really desired to establish a Republican form of Government, under which life and property should be safe and public order maintained, no one could have refused to acknowledge Vieir right so to do, and assistance woull not have been lacking from the United States. But every one foresaw that as THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESOAY EVENING, JULY 10, 1867. But this duty has a special action as regards its • own countrymen." The result of all this is that the position into which the matter has drifted is a shuffling one. More notes have been exchanged, in which various questions are put to the Danish Government. For instance, is it in a condition to give precise guaran tees for the protection and security of Germans living alone or in communes in the territory to be ceded eventually ? Does the Danish Government believe it can protect the interests of its future German subjects? Other questions, different in form but to the same effect, in addition to that above noticed relative to the debt, are put to the Danish Govern ment, and when the answers come no doubt Prussia will require time to reflect upon them. In this way a sort of conference has been established, which may be indefinitely prolonged, so as to give a pretext for the non-execution of the treaty. The Emperor and Empress received at the Tuileries Prince Nicholas the First, Prince of Mon- tenegro. Thar Majesties have also giVen audience to the Grand Duke of Saxe-Weimar, who travels under the name of Count de Zetta. His Royal Highness is accompanied by Count de Beust, aide de camp-general and grand marshal of his house household, and Major Triesenvettcr, one of his aides de-can p. It was the intention of the Em press to accompany the Imperial Prince to Biarritz, but the journey is postponed for the present in con sequence of slight indisposition. The Prince, who has arrived in perfect health, was everywhere re ceived with enthusiasm. At the departure of the mail from China, on the Ist of May, the Primauget of the Imperial navy, having on board Count de Lallemand, Envoy Ex traordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to China, had arrived at Tien-sin on his return from an ex cursion to Nankin. The Minister was expected to return to Pekin or. the 11th of May. The project of law for military re-organisation in Denmark, which was sent to the Folkething, after having been subjected to some modifications by the Upper Chamber, has been adopted by the Deputies by a large majority. The Danish Parliament will adjourn after the vote upon the laws for the payment of the army and the duties, the reports respecting which have been submitted to the house. Ponsard, the well-known author, has just died at gassy, in his 53d year. Ile was a member of the French Academy, and author of many pieces, among others, " Lucrece," " a translation of Byron's " Manfred," " Agnes do Meranie," played at the Odeon ; " Charlotte Corday," " Ulysse,'' " Le Lion Amoureux," " L'Honneur et l'Argent," "-Horace et Lydie," "L a B ourse, " "C e qu i plait aux Femmes." The representation of " Lu crece" led to some tumultuous scenes, there being passages which some thought immoral. The fune ral ceremony took place to-day at Passy church, and was attended by great numbers of literary men and artists. Only the carriages of royalty are admitted within certain portions of the Exhibition. The other day Madlle. Schneider, the actress, went in her carriage to visit it. The officer on duty stopped the carriage immediately, upon which Madlle. Schneider said, "I am the Duchess de Gerolstein." The worthy functionary, who is not very learned in aristocratic matters, touched his hat with great respect and hu mility, apologised, and allowed the carriage to pro ceed. The Duchess de Gerolstein is a character which Madlle. Schneider is now playing with great success at the theatre. The Emperor has just given another proof of his kind disposition, and his desire to add to the attrac tions of the Exhibition. It having become known that very great disappointment had been manifested in consequence of its having been necessary to re tain at the Hotel de Ville the magnificent table ornaments manufactured by Messrs. Christofle and Co., his Majesty has, with great consideration, allowed another splendid table ornament, manufac tured at the same eminent establishment, to be sent to the Exhibition, where it may now be seen. It is beautiful and tasteful in the extreme, and excites general admiration. It represents the Genius of France and Peace. The Empress was not quite so successful at her last visit to the Exhibition as Mademoiselle Schnei der. Her Majesty wished to see the representation of the new route through the Suez Canal, but it being before the time it was usually opened, the officer refused to allow her admission. The Em press told him she was a friend of M. Lesseps, and she was certain that he would allow her to go in if he were there. The Dogberry was inexorable, and the Empress, not wishing to disclose her rank, would have been disappointed if one of her ladies of honour had not remonstrated, and assured him that the lady was indeed a friend of M. Lesseps. The man would have been discharged if the Empress had not inter ceded for him. At the Vesinet Steeple Chases on Sunday, the Prix des Cascades was won by Annette. The result of a orivate bet was that Queen of the H trvest was beaten by Katinka. Sharpshooter won the Prix de Lac. Dodge won the Prix It Reclamer. The races in the Bois; de Bo u l ogne, which were postponed on Thursday last, will take place next Thursday.

The weather was beautifully fine, and the Viceroy apparently greatly enjoyed the magnificent scenery of the forest and the different views of the Castle obtained therefrom. His High ness drove back to Windsor by way of the Long walk, and passed slowly along through High-street, the shops and houses in whic.4i,were very beautifully decorated with Egyptian and other flags, up the Castle-hill to the Royal-mews, over which the Viceroy was shown by Lord Alfred Paget and Mr. Moon.

Just before entering the equipage the Viceroy t o ok leave of Lord Alfred PAgfA in a most cordial manner , and then left the s t a ti on f or Dudley-house. DIE EMPRESS EUGENIE AND THE PORTER.-- A French journal tells an entertaining anecdote of the fidelity of a porter to his charge. The Empress Eugenie recently presented herself at the Isthmus of Suez gate of the Exposition before the hour of opening. The porter refused to admit her Majesty, although she named M. do Lesseps as her friend. "Ali! they all say that," retorted the gatekeeper. The Empress insisted that the great canal-maker would instantly admit her were ho there, but could not prevail. She thou played her last card—" But if I were to tell you that lam the Empress ? " " I should not believe you," was the rejoinder. A lady of honour, however, at length convinced the porter that the applicant was the Empress ; and then the gate oPene d ' officious person proposed dismiss the faithful man, but the Zinproe interymed and rayed him.

This was greetA with loud cheers from both sides, and the lion. members have, indeed, great cause for rejoin ing, since the task has been an arduous and anxious one, and many times, when the most sanguine thought success certain, new obstacles arose and fresh difficulties occurred. The main thing to look at is the end gained in a work of this sore, and hence the Government may well regard the doings of yes terday with satisfaction ; but still, even at the eleventh hour, there were not wanting would-be marplots and intending schemers. Mr. GLADSTONE was resolved to lose no opportunity for expressing his discontent and putting in strong objections, and, indeed, the bill would never have been reported 3resterday evening, nor at all this session, in all probability, if the committee had not come to the rescue, and shown very plainly that they were getting tired of the vexatious delays that were interposed. The consequence was that many new clauses were withdrawn, and others deferred, and the work was considerably lightened thereby. No particular debate arose on any of the propositions yesterday submitted to the House, but a few attempts were made to alter the present arangern - ..snts. Some amusenieut was created at the commencement of the sitting by Mr. WHALLEY, who asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he did not think it would be more likely that the 11,,for:n Ttc.,‘;!ion woull be settled this year if he postpxnel th.; It2distribution 6elieme until next session, to which extraordinary question Mr. Drsaint returned a suitable reply, stating that he was perfectly satisfied with the present prospect, and had no wish to make any experiments of the nature alluded to. Mr. LOCKS clause was agreed to respecting the dem an 1 of the rate. After some discussion had taken plae2 there seems no fault to find with its provisions, and it seems an advantage that this troublesome matter shoul I have been so far settled, for it has given rise to a great deal of controversy during the progress of the bill. In the course of the remarks made on this topic Mr, Cx' STONE soon as the existing dynasty was swept away there would be only a repetition of those scenes of vio lence which years ago called forth the active inter ference of European Governments, and made Mexico a byeword and a reproach. The unsettled and unhappy condition of the coun try afforded, in fact, a substantial ex cuse for AIAXI3IILFAN'S experiment. But what ever the circumstances attending the French occu pation of Mexico, and the gift of the throne to a foreign prince, there can be but one opinion of the conduct of the so-called Lilrrals. Popular sym pathy is always on the side of heroic resistance on behalf of a failing cause ; and the picture of MA XI MILIAN and his few faithful adherents holding out in Queretaro against desperate odds for the sake, not so much of the chances of success as for the hope of protecting those Mexicans who had cast in their lot with the Emperor, is one which no one can regard with indifference. The circumstantial account of the EMPEROR'S last hours, published in a French journal, is, some think, apo cryphal, but we know at least the leading features of the mournful story. We know that Qeretaro was lost by an act of treachery, that the EMPEROR'S fate was sealed by a man whom he had known and trusted, that he and his two chief generals were captives for a month, and that they must have given up hope long before they actually fell under the bullets of the soldiers. We know, too, that the EMPEROR met his fate with a courage and a dignity worthy of his imperial race, that while his kinsfolk must mourn over the un- timely close of what promised to be a brilliant and prosperous career, they are spared the deeper grief of thinking that his honour was sullied or his mis fortunes deserved. For Mexico itself we may well believe that the crime will be as disastrous as it has been unpar donable. We can hardly doubt that the European Governments will combine to make some protest, to mark their sense of this outrageous conduct in some tangible form. If a reward were offered for the surrender of the principal actors in the tragedy of LOPEZ, of ESCOBEDO, and of JUAREZ himself, it might teach the Mexicans the estimation in which their leaders are held by Europe. They have put themselves beyond the pale of civilisation by au act which no civilised Government would have dreamed of contemplating. As for their nearest and most powerful neighbours, it remains to be seen what course they will pursue. The Americans are usually very careful of their national dignity, and they are besides far from being deficient in humanity. The fate of the fallen Prince has excited great interest, and they have through their representatives exerted themselves strongly on his behalf. It is not likely that they will continue to accord to JUAREZ the moral support they have hitherto given him. They will feel themselves in sulted by the outrage, and implicated in some degree in the crime. We hope before long that in both Houses of the English Parliament we shall ob- tain some expression of opinion, some unanimous condemnation of an act committed by a people who, while they claim to be free and self-governing, would throw back the cause of civilisation and liberty to the darkness of the middle ages. The Sheffield Commission has fairly ended its labours, and has delivered the desired certificates to most of those witnesses who applied for them. They laid down very simple and comprehensible principles for their guidance. If a man came forward and gave his evidence, and made his confession unre servedly in the first instance, he was allowed not only his certificate but his costs. If he prevaricated or perjured himself at first, and only confessed at a second examination, he was allowed a certificate without costs. To tkis class belong the notorious BROADHEAD and CROOKES. Thirdly, if the state ments of the witnesses were not satisfactory, no certificate was granted. It would have been more consonant with the public feeling, and more appro priate to the circumstances, had no costs whatever been allowed. The criminals might have been thankful to escape with protection from the con sequences of crimes the least of which would have doomed them to many years' penal servitude. It is too bad that such men should, under any circum stances, receive public money. We hope the matter will not end here, but that a thorough and searching investigation Rill be made into the whole position of these unions. The working men of Sheffield held a large meeting last night, to denounce in unmeasured terms the offences of which these persons have been guilty, and we have no doubt they meant sincerely. Half the energy shown in denouncing the crimes, when confessed, would, if used at the time of the offences, have long since detected the criminals. CORRESPONDENCE FROM PARIS. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, Tuesday Evening. The conduct of Prussia in reference to the execu- tion of the Treaty of Prague is beginning to excite uneasiness, not to say alarm. Iler attitude is not that of refusal, but one of evasion. The ratifica tions of this Treaty were exchanged so long ago as the 30th of August, 1866, and not a step has yet been taken to carry it into execution. On the con trary, the wish seems to be to create a delay until the Greek Kalends. It may not be amiss, under these circumstances, to give the exact text of the article in question. It is as follows : his Majesty the Emperor of Austria transfers to his Majesty the King of Prussia his rights ac quired by the Peace of Vienna of the 30th of Oc tober, 1864, over the Duchies of Holstein and Schleswig, with the reservation that the population of the northern districts of Schleswig, should they express by free suffrage the desire to belong to Den mark, may be ceded to that State." Nothing seems clearer than this provision (says the Sift.le), and yet the Cabinet of Berlin seems to desire to elude it by all kinds of chicanery. Before acceding to this condition, to which it may be con strained to submit of consulting the populations in conformity with the text of the Treaty, the Prussian Government first expressed a desire that there should be an amicable understanding relative to the guarantees necessary to insure the protection of the native Germans residing in that territory as to the proportional part of the debt of the Duchies, which should be at the charge of Den mark. By a despatch of the Ist of June, which the Minister, M. de Frigs, confidentially communicated to Ni. de Quaade, the Cabinet of Copenhagen re ferred to existing laws and treaties, which seemed to suffice amply for the purpose, and to render any additional " guarantee" superfluous, if not useless. In a Note of the 18th of June the Cabinet of Berlin declared that it cntld not content itself with the simple reference to existing laws and vague assurances of benev(Lnce and goo dwill, which in deed were not &Med that the Danish Government would exhibit to its future subjects. " If," says this Note, " the King of Prussi L were divosed to grant, the wish of a return to Denmark which might wishes be manifest e d by th e su bj ects o f N or thern Schles winigt,hotshe provinces the a d re w n an o t t s o o f of lesshisimportance. German abandon them, in spite of themselves, to a Power foreign to the German communes, whoml this cession would deprive of their national rights, and to deliver them over to dangers which are openly enough ma nifested among them when they think of the past— that is not what is required of Prussia by the Treaty of Prague.

Mr. Sayer, from the office of Mr. Edward Lewis, of Great Marlborough-street, appeared for the defence. Mr. Dent said—Last night, shortly after twelve o'clock, I was standing on the steps of her Majesty's Theatre wait ing for my earthly, when the prisoner snatched my watch from my waistcoat pocket, and thou ran away. I followed him, calling "Stop thief," and ho wont in and out of the carriages, and tried to turn down a street above the opera house, but he was stopped by a constable. He, however, succeeded in making off again, and was stopped by another constable, several persons having given chase, and I suc ceeded in being is at the death. The prisoner was then taken to the station. Mr. Tyrwhitt —What is your watch worth ? Prosecutor —About .£26. Mr. Tyrwhitt—ls the prisoner the man ? Prosecutor —$e is. I never lost sight of him. Police-constable Luke Jeffery, 49 C—At a quarter-past 12 o'clock last night I was on duty at the corner of Charles street. I hoard the cry of " Stop thief," and saw the pri soner running in front of the prosecutor and several others. I stopped him Abd asked him what he was running for, and he replied, " I do e n d h; A gentleman in the crowd handed me a watch which he had picked up, and which the prosecutor identified as his property. On search ing the prisoner at the station I found another watch (gold, maker's name Perry) and chain and locket, and some money. Mr. Tyrwhitt—Tha prisoner will be remanded for a week. Gordon, 33 o—The prisoner is well known to the police. WESTMINSTER. AN AWKWARD Tnicx.—William Drake, a respectable looking youth, w as placed at the bar, charged with steal ing a horse and chaise, cart, harness, and a couple of great coats. Mr. Thomas `'Dighton, of 23, Marylebone-lane, butcher, said that on his return, in a chaise cart, from Wimbledon last evening, he stopped at Mr. Golding's, the Pier Hotel, Cheyne-walk, Chelsea. As he and his friend got out of the cart, the prisoner, who stood by, said, "All right," and took charge of the horse and trap. When prosecutor came out in about ten minutes he fouud the horse and cart and the prisoner gone. Ho got into a cab, accompanied by Mr. Golding, and drove about to different places, and at length found his horse and cart outside the Trevor Arms, Knightsbridge. Ho waited for a few minutes, and prisoner coming out of the tavern was given into custody. Mr. Selfe--Were the coats safe ? Prosecutor —yes, they were all right. Prisoner said it was not him but a friend that took charge of the horse and cart. He waited with him a long while, and finding the gentleman did not come out, thought they had bettor take the horse and cart to Walton-street station for safety. Inspector Horton—lt is very much out of the way where prisoner was found. Mr. Selfe—Did you expect to find the police station at the Trevor. Prisoner—We wont there to have something to drink, and then we should have gone to the station. Mr. Sclfe said that he thoughtit the prisoner had intended to make away with the horse and cart he would not have been found where he was. There was no doubt he drove away with it, but the question was whether ho did it with the intention of depriving the owner of it, and he did not think that under such circumstances any jury would convict. He than discharged the prisoner with a caution not to play such tricks for the future. LAW INTELLIGENCE—This Day. COURT OF DIVORCE. Before the Right llon. Sir J. P. Wilde and a Common Jury). HITCHCOCK V. HITCHCOCK. This was a suit instituted to obtain a judicial separation on the ground of cruelty and desertion (the husband pleaded) and alleged adultery. Dr. Deane, Q.C., and Dr. Swabey for the petitioner, and Dr. Spinks, Q.C., and Mr. Searle for the re spondent. It appeared from the opening statement of Dr. Deane that the parties were married on Sept. 27, 1855, and at that time the petitioner had about £250 and a fourth share in an income of £125. They ceased cohabitation in 1859, and the petitioner filed a petition on the ground of cruelty and adultery against her husband, who denied the cruelty and adultery, and the suit was heard on the 23d of May, 1861, when the charge of adultery against the husband was held not to have been proved. For two months after the trial she was so ill that she was unable to take any steps to return to her husband's farm near Uxbridge, but at the expiration of that period she was conveyed there, when her husband struck and otherwise ill-used her. He was brought before the magistrates for this. He made anothe attempt, but without success. She then became a nurse, and had been employed in various hospitals. With regard to the allegations against her, it was alleged by her counsel that the one of desertion was a pure quegtion of law, as the desertion took place while the proceedings in the first suit were pending, and that it was entirely a point for the learned judge. With regard to the adultery, that she had positive evidence to disprove. Ann Hitchcock, the petitioner, said that she wa s married in 1855 to the respondent, who was a farmer residing between Uxbridge• and liar row. In July, 1859, she left her husband' s house because he threatened her. She after wards filed a petition in this Court. The ver dict was against her on the ground of cruelty. She went to New North-road immediately after the trial, and was in a very bad state of health for two months, and during that period she was unable to leave her bed. Petitioner got better of her illness on the 25th July, and she was taken home on the 27th. Miss Knat and Mr. Morton went with her. It was about four o'clock in the afternoon. She was lifted out of the fly, and the occurrence already mentioned took place. She went on another occasion, and her husband would not receive her. She waited there for four hours, and her husband motioned to a carter to turn her out. She then left him, and got a situation as night nurse to learn the dressing, and she found she could not do so without becoming a nurse. She was promoted then to be a nurse in the Victoria or woman's ward. She was suffering then from tumours, and she afterwards went to Baker Brown's Surgical Home, where she was cured. She then stayed at various lodgings, and afterwards went to the London Hospital, .where she is now. In cross-examination she stated that she had slept one night in a coffee-shop near London-bridge, where a female friend, whose house was full, had obtained lodgings for her, and that some one had put his hand into her pocket and taken her watch while she appeared to be asleep. The case was proceeding when we went to press. MARKETS.—This day. MARK LANE. Tho weather during the last few days having been satis factory, the crops have made fair progress towards matu rity, and there appears to be no reason to doubt that the yield this year will be a full average one. The trade to day was greatly wanting in activity, and, although the arrivals were limited, but little disposition was shown to purchase on the part of the few buyers in attendance, whilst, at the same time, prices generally were nominally unaltered. Coastwise, as well as by rail, the show of English wheat was limited. Both red and white parcels, however, were difficultio dispose of, at about the rates current on Monday. The market was well, but not to say heavily, supplied with foreign v.heat. In all descriptions sales progressed slowly, on former terms. Fur floating cargoes the trade ruled quiet, at late rates. The supply of barley was limited, nevertheless the de mand was steady, at previous quotations. Malt was held at quite late rates. The sale for it, how ever, was dull. The market was extensively supplied with oats. All kinds were difficult to sell, and the value of inferior sorts was barely supported. Beans were firm in price, although tho inquiry was heavy. Peas wore dull, but not cheaper. The flour trade was very quiet, on former terms. Agricultural seeds met a slow sale, but linseed and rape seed were firm in price. IMP ARRIVALS THIS WEEK. Wheat.

The Queen, accompanied by the Queen of Prussia and her Royal Highness Princess Louis of Hesse, drove in the grounds yesterday afternoon. THAMES. DESERTING A PAMILY.—SINGULAR ARTIFICE TO CATCH AN OFFENDER.—Patrick Daly, an Irish labourer, was brought before Mr. Paget charged with deserting his three children, and leaving them chargeable to the Stepney Union. Mr. Drew, ono of the relieving officers of the Union, said that the prisoner came to the workhouse with his three children for relief last December, and said he was a widower. The prisoner and his children were relieved. The prisoner afterwards absconded, and the union had supported his family. Walton, an officer of the court, No. 285 K, had recourse to a singular expedient to arrest the prisoner, who knew there was a warrant against him. He had on many occa sions given much trouble to Smith, 415 K, an officer of the court, who held the warrant. Smith had chased the prisoner over the tiles and tops of houses, and lost him re peatedly. Last night Walton disguised himself in a ragged coat, feigned drunkenness, and went into a court in Rat cliff, where the prisoner lives, and which is solely inha bited by Irish. Walton tumbled about the court, and was kicked and cuffed by the Irish, and called all manner of names. At last he quietly rolled along the ground, and full upon his face, to all appearance dead drunk, near the door of the prisoner's dwelling. At a late hour, and after the constable had been lying on the cold ground two hours, an Irishman came out of the house, reconnoitred, and wont to the end of the court, and whistled. The prisoner answered to the' signal, and came softly down the court with his shoes iL his handl. " There's nobody hero but that drunken beggar, and he's fast asleep," said the prisoner's countryman. The prisoner had just reached the ground when the constable Walton sprung to his feet, and saized him, exclaiming, "You are my prisoner." The prisoner was thunderstruck, and said "Don't hurt me, Mr. Smith, and l'll go with you quietly." Ile did so, and was soon locked up. Ho mistook Walton for Smith. Tho prisoner said ho left the workhouse in search for work. Mr. Paget sentenced the prisoner to one month's impri sonment and hard labour. BOROUGH HOP. In consequence of unfavourable reports the hop ttade continues very firm, and holders are demanding more money. WHITECISAPEL. There is a good supply of meat on silo.

ROYAL COURTESIES.--A Paris correspondent _o' the Independance Beige states that Queen Victoria has in vited the Empress Eugenie to be present at the forthcom ing naval review at Spithead, but that the Empress replied that the painful excitement caused by recent events ren dered it impossible for her at present to take part in any fete. Queen Victoria in return has assured the Empress of the French that she fully appreciates and respects the feel ing which has prevented the acceptance of her invitation, but adds a hope that after the review the Empress will not refuse to spend a few days at Osborne, to be passed in the most absolute retirement. The Empress has not yet re plied to this last invitation. DROWNED WHILE BATHING. —On Friday morn ing a youth named Wainman, very respectably connected in Hull, who was staying at Hornsea, near Hull, for a short season, was drowned while bathing. Waiuman could not swim, and it is supposed that ho had walked into a hole, and had so got out of his depth, when he was seized with cramp or a fit. lie was only 18 years of age. ROBBING A COFFIN.--A singular robbery has just been committed at Cambridge. Some men were employed at Jesus College Chapel executing some repairs there. They were engaged in the ante-chapel, lowering the floor, and two of them, taking advantage of the absence of the rest, descended a vault In the ante-chapel and broke open a coffin, it is believed that of one of the former masters of the college, and carried off nearly 100 lb of lead to a dealer's in Barnwell, promising to bring more. On the way to fulfil the promise, however, Wilderspin, ono of the robbers, was met by the chapel clerk with the lead in a bag, and this led to the detection of the theft.

THE STATE VISIT TO THE OPERA. The state visit to the Opera on Monday next in honour of his Majesty the Sultan will be an occa sion of peculiar interest. The following is an outline of the arrangements for the occasion His Royal highness the Prince of Wales, attended by his suite, and by the Lord Chamber lain and the various officers of her Majesty's house hold, and accompanied by his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, his Serene Highness Prince Edward of Saxe-Weimar, his Highness Prince Teck, and other members of the Royal family, will arrive at the Covent Garden entrance at the Floral-hall at a quarter-past 8 o'clock, being re ceived by a Guard of Honour. Immediately on the arrival of his Royal Highness the Guards' band sta tioned in the hall will play the National Anthem. At half-past 8 his Majesty the Sultan, attended by his suite, consisting of about 40 persons, and by his Excellency the Turkish Ambassador, all in full uniform, will be received by his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales. On the arrival of the Sultan the band will per form the Imperial Turkish National March. Immediately after the reception, the procession will be formed and proceed through the Floral hall, ascending the staircase at the east end, and passing through the crush-room of the Opera-house to the Royal box. The Royal box will be placed in the centre of the house, the crush-room forming its ante-room,—an arrangment similar to the one fol lowed when her Majesty, with the late Prince Con sort, accompanied by the Emperor Napoleon and the Empress, visited the Royal Italian Opera, Covent Garden, in State in the year 1855. The Floral Hall, which will form a magnificent salle de reception, is to be superbly decorated and a profusion of flowers and plants displayed. The side aisles and the galleries will be set apart for visitors, the procession of the Royal party, with their suites and the officers of her Majesty's household, proceed ing along the centre of the hall. When the Royal visitors have taken their seats the National Anthem will be performed on the stage, after which the opera will commence. The opera selected for the occasion is Auber's illasaniello. At the conclusion of the performance " God save the Queen" will be played by the or chestra, as the Prince and Sultan rise to depart. The Royal party will leave the building by tho Floral Hall, the military band repeating the National Anthem, and continuing to play while the procession passes along the hall to the entrance in Covent Garden, where the carriages are to take up. THE NAVAL REVIEW. His Imperial Majesty the Sultan will arrive by special Royal train on the South-Western Com pany's main line, at the Royal Clarence-yard, Gos port, from London on the morning of the Naval Review, and willbe received with full Royal honours • His Majesty, on alighting from the train, will em bark on board the Royal paddle yacht Osborne, and proceed through the fleet at Spithead, and after wards join her M:tjesty the Queen on board the Royal paddle yacht Victoria and Albert, Captain his Serene Highness the Prince Leiningen. The Viceroy of Egypt is expected to arrive at Ports mouth about the same time as the Sultan, but the arrangements for the reception of his Highness are not yet quite completed. The fleet will weigh from Spithead this morning about 10 o'clock and steam out at a certain distance south-east of the anchorage, and on returning to the anchorage will anchor in their proper positions in two lines, in which formation they will receive the Queen and her august visitors on Review-day. The fleet was joined yesterday morning by Roar- - Admiral Warden's squadron of ironclads from Port land, comprising the Minotaur (flagship), Achilles, Lord Clyde, and Bellerophon. The turret ship Royal Sovereign, Captain C. P. Coles, C. 8., joined the fleet from Portsmouth habour yesterday morn ing, and had a large party on board of the wives, families, and friends of the officers and ship's com pany. This very wholesome indulgence on a ship first leaving harbour after commission was, we be lieve, first allowed on board the present flagship of the Channel Squadron on her leaving Portsmouth harbour for Spithead a few mouths back. The un armoured screw frigate Mersey, Captain H. S. Hillyar, C. 8., also went out of Portsmouth harbour yesterday, and joined the fleet at Spithead. The only vessels that had not joined the fleet up to sun set yesterday that were named by the Admiralty to take part in the Review are the two screw frigates Liverpool and Phoebe, detached to escort the Sultan across the Channel ; the Princess Royal, screw liner, and the Scylla, screw corvette, both on their way home from China, and the iron-clad sloop Research. Admiral Sir Thos. Sabine Pasley yesterday morn- ing hoisted his flag at the main of the screw three decker Victoria, as Commander-in-Chief of the Fleet. Rear Admiral F. Warden, C. 8., as second in command, retains his flag on board the iron screw frigate Minotaur. A telegram received at Portsmouth yesterday frog' the Admiralty conveyed orders for the Royal screw yacht Fairy to be placed in dock and made ready for service at the Review. In less than two hours after the receipt of the orders the beautiful little craft was in dock, and a number of bands busily employed upon her. The supposed mishap to the machinery of the Valiant in leaving Portsmouth harbour for Spithead on Monday has turned out to have been no mishap after all. On the frigate nearing the Spit buoy from the harbour channel the engines were stopped by order, and the crew sent aloft to make sail, just by way of showing the fleet what could be done with a hurriedly and temporarily manned ship. Death of Lord Justice Turner. We regret to announce the death of Sir George James Turner, the Senior Lord Justice of Appeal' which occurred late last night. His illness was a t first supposed to be merely a severe cold, from which he appeared, even last Saturday, to be rallying but on Sunday he became considerably weaker, an d yesterday morning a fatal termination became lel' minent. Death of Mr. Scholefield, M.P. e regret to have to announce the sudden demis e in his 58th year of Mr. William Scholefield, MY' for Birmingham.

Mr. Scholefield had represented ni r ; mingham since 1817, having previously in 1 8 ! been unsuccessful in a contest for that borough. 11 politics he was what used to be called " a Radi ce i Reformer," being in favour of a wide extens ion the suffrage, vote by ballot, &c.
