He shall found no dynasty ; he shall wear no durable Czown. But in the midst of deeds of blood and slaughter, with affrighted Europe trembling beneath the weight of his daring martial hosts, he descends beneath the heavy hand of Fate ; and falls to rise no more ; with none to mourn him, none to inherit his renown, none to record his good deeds, and none to lament his destruction."

LIEBIG COMPANY'S EXTRACT OF MEAT. FOUR GOLD MEDALS. Supplied to the British, French, Prussian, Russian, Italian, Dutch, and other Governments. Dr. Lankester writes regarding Extract of Meat :—" But there is a difference in flavour, and here, as in all other kinds o food, it is the flavour that makes the quality." It is essentially on account of the fine meaty flavour, as distinguished from the burnt taste of other Extracts, that LIEBIG COMPANY'S EXTRACT defeated all Australian and other sorts at Paris, Havre, and Amsterdam, and is so universally preferred in all European markets. One pint of fine-flavoured Beef-tea at 20. Most convenient and economic " stock."

Read " Water ; its Impurities and Purification." Price, 2d. Muehquietness has pervaded the stock markets to-day. Business is for the moment much contracted, pending some more definite information from Paris respect ing the newly-established republic. There has also been a dearth of information from the seat of war, and this has to some extent had the effect of confining operations. It is, however, generally considered certain that France, with her disorganised army, will not prolong hostilities, but will speedily sue for peace, and that whilst regenerating her self she will raise from the ruins of the .'second empire a form of government having for its object - the preservation of peace and the extension of. the industries of the country. For home securities there has been but very little demand to-day. Consols have been flat and * per cent. lower, at 91k, 91* for delivery, and 91k, 92* for October.

American securities have been flat in sympathy. 'The Five-Twenty (1882 and 1885) Bonds have receded the 1887 and Illinois Central *. In bank shares the transactions have been restricted. Imperial Ottoman 114, 12, and Union of London 364, 7. Telegraph shares have been in moderate request. British Indian Extension have sold at •6, British Indian Submarine 74, 4, Falmouth, 92, 4, and French cables, 14k; P i . Telegraph Construction shares have been lower, 24, 244. Silver's India Rubber have marked 41. For Indian Railway Stocks there has been very little inquiry. Carnatic, 104 ; East Indian, 1104 ; Canadian Shares have been flat ; Great Western, 144, 144 ; in Foreign Shares next to nothing has been doing ; Great Luxemburg have marked 124; Recife and San Francisco 164 ; . and Lombardo, 15i, 16. The railway market has beon depressed, and the quo tations have given way. Great Northern A has fallen 14, and South Eastern 1. Brighton, North Western, Great Western, and North Eastern are each 4 lower, whilst Metropolitan, Great . Eastern and Midland each shew a reduction of 4. After official hours Metropolitan was quoted at 634, 644 ; Caledonian, 744, 7n ; Brighton, 39, 395 ; South-Eastern, 69i, 704 ; Great Northern, 118, 120 ; ditto (A), 129, 130 ; Great Eastern, 355, 36 ; Midland, 1244, 125 ; North- Western, 1255, 126 ; Great Western, 684, 69 ; and North-Eastern, 1374, 138.

At Mark-lane to-day wheat was dull, and 2s. per qr. lower. Spring corn also ruled easier. The supply of money has been large. There has been Very little inquiry for accommodation, and three months' paper has been negotiated at 3to 3 per cent.

" It is a straightforwardly and sometimes gracefully written Sketch of Norway, the Channel Islands, and Cornwall, from the holiday traveller's point of view, not, however, exclusively devoted to matters of scenery or itinerary, but designed to give the voyager an intelligent interest in the manners, customs, industries, and institutions of the districts he is exp) 'ring. Fos intending visitors to Norway especially, Mr. Spender s book will be welcome. It has, moreover, the decided advantage of com pression, clearness of style, and easy manageableness of bulk."— Daily Telegraph. "The volume perfectly fulfils its purpose. It is neat and cheap and contains in a small space a great quantity of very interesting matter, much of which will be novel; and all of which will be useful, not only to those who visit the places described, but to those who stay at home. Mr. Spender is an acute observer, a most industrious and judicious collector of Diets, and an eloquent and graphic writer, and does ample justice to his subjects."— Yorkshire Post. "It deserves a welcome, this book we have so long uncon sciously been in search of. The itineraries themselves are to the intending excursionists a veritable benefaction. . Altogether the book is one to carry in one's knapsack or valise during the happy time of our holiday excursion, and to give a place to on our book-shelves afterwards as a most pleasant remembraacer." —Sun • "'Fjord, Jsle, and ; Tor' is a very delightful little book. The essay on Norway is particularly full of information, but the others are not far behind it in proportion to their length, and all are written in a genial spirit."—Globe. "Without being exactly a guide-book, it answers all the pur poses of one, and contains beside a vast quantity of information, all given in the most condensed form possible. There is not a line of space wasted in fine writing, but the deScriptions of scenery bear witness to the author's genuine love and appreciation of the picturesque, just as his closely compressed facts and statements prove the practical and hardworking man of letters."—Man cheater Courier. " From back to hack Fjord, Isle, and Tor' is full of matter interesting equally to the tourist and the ordinary reader. It is written in an easy and pleasant styl , and is well 'got up; " Eastern Morning News. " We cannot part with this fascinating little work without con gratulating Mr. Spender upon it. Addressed, as it more especially is, to travellers in Norway, the Channel Islands, and Cornwall, it is, nevertheless, a book that will afford the keenest gratifica tion to the gen6ral public. . . . As to its literary merits we need say nothing, the name of the author being sufficient guarantee on this point."—Western Mail. "The articles shew unusual power of observation, are full of genial gossip, and supply just what the excunoonist wants-- reliable information."—Western Daily Press.

Office, 5, Red Lion-square, London.—During the last 10 years this Institution has been instrumental in rescuing a vast number of poor girls from a life of degradation and misery. The plan adopted has been to seek the wanderers in the streets of London and gather them together at the midnight hour, when short and faithful addresses have been given. During the present year the Meetings have been held nearly every week in some of the most frequented districts of the metropolis. The promoters have abundant evidence that these efforts have been most successful in effecting a great moral change in many fallen ones. To enable them to continue their important work, FUNDS are earnestly solicited, and will be thankfully received by Mr. John Stabb, Hon.

LONDON CORN EXCHANGE, MONDAY.- , -The grain trade has been characterised by great inactivity during the past week, ' owing to the course of events on the Continent-which seems to afford the hope of an early return of peace-and to the in creasing confidence with regard to the result of the harvest. Millers have operated throughout the week with great caution, and the tendency of prices has been constantly downwards. The French purchases of grain appear to have now ceased, not only on account of the near prospect of peace, but also from the fact that Paris is believed to be previsioned 'with breadstuffs for three months' service. The decline in the value of wheat on the week may be stated, on the average, at rather above 2s. per qr. Last week's imports of foreign and colonial produce into London amounted to 40,522 qrs. wheat ; 4,954, barley; 84,598, oats ; 21, rye ; 1,152, beans; 1,652, peas ; 12,625 linseed ; 11,649, rapeseed ; 8,280, maize ; 920, seeds ; 10,625 sacks and 362 barrels of flour. From Essex and Kent the receipts of wheat were on a full average scale. There was a moderate attendance of millers. The trade was depressed, and prices receded 2s. per quarter. At that reduction, however, a fair amount of business was trausactad. With foreign wheat the market was well supplied. The demand was inactive, and prices gave way 2s. per quarter. Moderate supplies of barley were on the stands. There was a dull market, and the quotations had a drooping tendency. Malt was dull, at about late rates. The show of oats was good. Sales progressed slowly, and the qucitations gave way is. per quarter. Beans commanded but little attention, at rather less money. For peas the trade was dun, and lower prices were taken in order to conclude business. Flour was. neglected, and the quotations gave way one shilling per sack and barrel. There was no demand for France. Arrivals of grain, &c., into London last week :-Wheat, brls., English, 11,939; foreign, 40,522. Barley, English, 586; Scotch, 88; foreign, 4,984.

' METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET, 310NDAY.-The total imports of foreign stock into London last week amounted to 7,951 head. In the corresponding 'week in 1869 we received 14,032 head, in 1868 8,419, in 1867 12,391, in 1866 15,589, and in 1865 20,915 head.

The receipts of stock have been quite an average, but there has still been a scarcity of prime breeds. From our own grazing districts beasts have come to hand with a fair amount of freedom, and the arrivals from abroad have been moderate. Prime stock has been in request, and the best breeds have made ss. Bd. per Blbs. Other qualities have sold slowly, at barely late quotations. From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northamptonshire we received about 1,800 shorthorns, &c., from other parts of England 500 various breeds, from Scotland about 50, and from lieland 160 head. With sheep the market was well supplied, a large number of Dutch animals being on sale. The trade has been quiet, and inferior breeds have been lower in value. The choicest stock, however, commanded ss. 10d. per 81bs. For calves the demand was inactive, at about late rates. Pigs changed hands heavily, on former terms.

MANCHESTER TRADE REPORT, MONDAY. , -Business in this market has been practically suspended, both on Saturday and to-day, owing to the extraordinary news received from the seat of war. The excitement in the Liverpool cotton market .was great. Here there was no excitement, but producers have refrained from quoting prices, generally preferring to await further news as to the effect the abdication of Napoleon will have on the duration of the war, and buyers are quite disposed to defer making fresh offers. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, 3WNDAY.—Open fug re port :--Imports per bill of entry, 12,803 bales. There is a fair demand. and prices are steady, at the full closing currency of Saturday. Probably the sales will reach 10,000 bales. Closing Report. This market opened with a good demand to-day at extreme priees, but the news from Paris has caused a quieter feeling. The sales were 15,000 bales, 5,000 of which were on speculation and for export. GLASGOW PIG IRON MARKET, MONDAY. —This market opened firm to-day at 51s.

There was a fair business done at this market to-day, and prices were well maintained. THE WEATHER. AND THE CROPS. Harvest work, the Magnet says, has now been about brought to a conclusion, and despite the gloomy fore bodings entertained at the commencemnnt of the season of a failure of the crops from the severe drought, the results on the whole has not been unfavourable. Certainly the spring corn crops have fallen short of the average to the extent in some instances of about 30 per cent., but the general good quality of the produce, and the excellent condition in which it has been secured, will in some measure counterbalance the shortcomings of a deficient yield. Harvest operations, Bell's - Messenger thinks, were interrupted by the broken weather of theearly part of the week, but considerable progress has been made during the last four days of the se'imight with the late crops. In the North of Scotland, however, much is still outstanding in the fields, and a continuance of fine weather is looked for to enable farmers to complete carry ing. On the other hand the pastures and the root crops have improved under the influence of the rain that has fallen, though the season is too far advanced to hope for any considerable improvement. Water is still scarce in many parts of the country, and great complaints are heard of the mill streams being dried up, and of the insufficiency of motive power. The corn trade during the past week has been in a state of great inactivity, and prices have had a downward tendency. The Mark Lane Express says:—"The week opened with a fine rain, which has much refreshed the meadows, with out harm to the corn ; and the following days being of a fine autumnal character, a considerable quantity . of out standing sheaves have since been gathered in fair order. With all these favourable circumstances and the con tinued defeats of the French armies promising to hasten on the return of peace, our wheat trade has fur ther given way as regards new corn to the extent of ls. to 2s. per qr.,: while our heavy supplies of foreign oats having outstripped the immediate wants of France, this grain has again been tending downwards, many importers preferring a first loss to landing, and incurring the usual heavy charges. The death by drowning of Lord Aberdeen has been confirmed. The two boys Everson and Farrell, against whom a coroner's jury returned a verdict of manslaughter for kicking to death a boy of five years of age, named Arthur Lane, were brought up at the Thames police- cour t on Saturday and committed for trial. A marriage is arranged between Mr. Thornew . ill, of Dover Cliff, Staffordshire, and Miss Annie Gladstone, daughter of Mr. Robertson Gladstone, of Court-hey, near Liverpool, and niece of the Prime Minister.—Court Journal. The office of Government astronomer at Sydney, New South Wales, is v9,caut by the death of Mr. George K. Smalley, 8.A., F.R.A.S. It is of the annual value of £6OO, and is in the gift of the Premier of the colony. We learn that the establishment of the Board of Trade will shortly be reduced. A vacancy caused by a recent death will not be filled up, and we understand that five other clerkships will also be abolished.—Civil Se r v ice Gazette. On Saturday four inquests were held at Black heath on children found murdered ! The coroner believed there was a baby-farming house in the neighbourhood, from which place the poor innocents were brought. ' It is evident from what we learn of the financial embar rassments rapidly springing up ir. France, and the difficulty of the Prussian Government to raise a loan among capitalists of a hundred and twenty millions of thalers, that money still constitutes the sinews of war, and that the money difficulties may yet lead to an early terms' ation of the conflict. We have noticed heretofore the suspension of specie payments and the proposed issue of paper money in France ; now we learn that only fifty millions of the Prussian loan had been taken. -The loan amounts to about eighty millions of dollars of our money—a small sum, comparatively, for a great nation-- yet little more than about thirty-four millions in American money had been taken, although King William him self had subscribed for half a million, and one German manufacturer for a million. Capitalists are unwilling, evidently, to invest in the loan. No people hold their money with a tighter grip than the Germans, and however patriotism may boil over they will rather invest in the safe and well-paying securities of the United States. But why did not the Prussian Government try a popular loan in small sums, as Napoleon did in France on several occasions with great success ? The amount of a hundred and twenty millions of thalers or three br four times that sum ought to be raised in this way easy enough if the Germans are as patriotic or have as much confidence in their Government as the French. We suspect, how ever, that the close-fisted and calculating German capi talists do not like the form of the loan or the way in which it is put. In view of these financial difficulties so early in the war with both the belligerents and the stupendous cost of carrying on such a gigantic struggle there may be a chance of peace at no distant day, Should the war continue long, however, there must come the most terrible crash and suffering and such a flood of paper money as Europe has rarely seen. If the war were to become general in Europe almost every nation these would be bankrupt. The aggregate debts of England, France, Russia, Austria, Italy, Spain, and Prussia amount to near twelve thousand millions of dollars. That of England is about a third of the whole, or near four thousand millions of dollars ; that of France near three thousand millions of dollars ; of Russia over twelve hundred . millions ; of Austria 'over thirteen hundred millions; of Italy near eleven hundred millions; of Spain over eight hundred millions; and of Prussia more than two hundred millions. Taking the debts of the other States of Germany the whole German indebtedness would amount, probably, to near four hundred millions. Germany, then, as far as its debts are concerned, is in a more favourable situation than the other Powers, but still the cost of this stupendous war will try its financial capacity to the utmost. Looking at these overwhelming debts we can readily understand why England and the other Powers are anxious to prevent the war spreading and to see it closed as soon as possible. Twelve thousand millions and up- - wards of debt has been .created in Europe in dynastic wars and to gratify the ambition of a few men and royal families. And how many millions of lives have been sacrificed for the same purpose ? The flower of the _ people are used for the slaughter with no more con cern than if they were so many cattle, and the masses -- have to pay the cost by their labour. The people of Europe are kept with their noses to the grindstone and in wretched poverty to pay for the wars of their ambitious rulers. Surely this cannot last much longer in this enlightened age. A day of reckoning must come. A revolution is silently at work, and whenever it is ripe these enormous monarchical debts may be swept away as•were the debt and ancient institutions of France at the close of the last century.—New York Herald. DE FAILLY'S DEATH AT SEDAN. - The Times' military correspondent, writing from Sedan, immediately after the final struggle there, says :—" The Prussian forces numbered about 220,000, and the French about 110,000. By two o'clock on the afternoon of Friday nearly all, the wounded were collected, and the dead were being rapidly interred. The principal losses were near Sedan and Bazeille, and the mitrailleuses worked with deadly effect in this direction. The French made no at tempt at intrenching their position. Their cavalry showed the same incapacity that has cliarac racterised them throughout this war. One whole brigade of light cavalry, without being pressed, took refuge in the woods and crossed the frontier. The losses on both si - les must have been very considerable. In a little valley near Bazeille lay the bodies of De Failly, his aide-de-camp, and both their horses, all killed by one shell. His incapa city had been the main cause of Maalahon's defeat at Woerth, and it was his corps that was surprised at Mon zon, but he died a soldier's death, and " Nevermore on him shall sorrow light, or shame." NAPOLEON'S SURRENDER.-It would be difficult to say to what extent the Emperor's captivity was with him a matter of choice. That he could have escaped if he had wished it may be argued from the ease with which 14,000 soldiers of MacMahon's army crossed over to Bed gium at the moment of the final defeat. But he seemel determined to share the fortunes of his army to the last. He was unable to fall wit those who fell :he made up his mind to be taken with hose who were taken. The vanquished Monarch has hal an interview with his conqueror. The King of Prussia „bears witness to the dignified bearing of his illustrious prisoner. The captive Emperor's journey through Belgium to his temporary destination at Wilhelmshohe, near Cassel, is telegraphed from almost every station, and when last heard of he was on the point of entering Prussian territory at Ver viers.--Time,s. LEB CE UF'S T Rue u LEN E. —M. 011ivier, according to a German paper, recently gave the following account of the circumstances under which war was declared : " When the news of the Prince of Hohenzollern's renunciation arrived in Paris, the Ministers met at the Tuileries. The matter was thorOughly discussed, and the majority of the Cabinet determined, in conse quence of this signal satisfaction, to take a concilia tory course. The Emperor, who, according to his custom, had till then kept silence, rose, and for a moment retired to a little distance, a pause ensued, and most of the Minis also left their seats, in order to smoke a cigar and talk unconstrainedly in the ante-room. Only three stayed behind—Segris, Maurice Richard, and Leboeuf. The last was greatly excited when the votes were taken, and exclaimed in a desperate tone, as he rapped his knuckles on the desk, " 0 mon Dieu ! 0 mon Dieu ! " The Minister of Fine Arts stepped up to him and said, " Pray compose yourself, Marshal ; we have to do with the first military Power of Europe. Are you quite prepared ?" " Are we prepared ! " cried Leboeuf jumping up like a tiger, " prepared as France has never been and never will be again. Believe me, my dear colleague, if my respect for the Emperor did not restrain me, I would not hold office an hour longer." As these last words were pro nounced the Emperor with the other Ministers returned, and even he appeared more excited than the Ministers had ever seen him, but, as if wishing to conceal his feelings from his Council, he merely remarked mildly that guaran tees for the future must also be demanded of Prussia. An hour later it was decided that a cases UM should be made of this demand. HEROIC DEFENCE OF STRASBURG CONTINUED. --" An Alsatian paper," says the Carlsruhe Gazette, "on the authority of persons who have escaped from Stras burg, states that for ten days the inhabitants have remained day and night in their cellars, those whose houses have been destroyed taking refuge in the churches. Burials are no longer performed outside the town, but in the botanical garden. The inhabitants are in conster nation, and anxiously expect the time when a French army is to deliver them. Every day, when the bombard ment has ceased a few hours, there is a false alarm, and there are enthusiastic cries of " Vire la France I Vire l'arnMe I" It is affirmed that every household has pro visions for two months. The gasometer has been emptied, so that every inhabitant is required to place a lighted lantern at night in front of his house. One of the four turrets of the clock tower of the cathedral has been seriously damaged ; Schwilgue's astronomical clock has been destroyed, and the zinc roof of the building has been burnt. The windows have not at present suffered. The number of persons killed and wounded is about 230, the majority of whom inhabited the upper stories of the houses. Without doubt, adds the Alsace newspaper, ' the heroic defenders of Strasburg will soon be relieved by a victorious French corps, and on the day when it will be necessary to march to chase the barbarous hordes who invest it, all Alsace will take up arms.'" SCIENTIFIC DEFENCE OF THE FRENCH CAPITAL. —The Journal Officiel publishes the following note : " The Minister of Public Instruction has appoint e d a committee of savants, who are to concert with the mili tary authorities means for applying to the defence of Paris all the latest results of physical and chymical science. M. Berthelot, Professor of Organic Chymistry at the College de France, is President of the Committee. Two Deputies, MM. Dorian and Genelot, represent the Corps Legislatif. The first meeting of the committee is fixed for Saturday, September 3rd, at the Ministry for Public Instruction. Persons who may have communications to make, or plans to suggest are -requested to apply to M. Berthelot. Another committee, specially charged with the medical questions relating to,. the defence of Paris, is being or ga,nised under the presidency of M. See, Professor of the Faculty of Medicine." '.`he Opinions Nationale comments upon the foregoing notice :—" We entirely approve the arrangement thus proposed. Since scientific barbarism is being hurled against,us, it is the task of civilised science to defend us."
