The annexed memorandum has been received with regard to a report circ u l a t e d i n th e Stock an expenditure as to the p ro b a bilit y o f th e sc h eme f or expenditure of £410,000 on a competing tele graph line to Egypt being withdrawn, which caused , Ip a r ise in several descriptions of telegraph shares. - ," 1 I , le expediency of such a withdrawal seemed so vious that no surprise can be felt at the cur eneY it o b ta i ned. The promoters, however, llew announce not only that they intend to 111.I3cee(11 but that the whole of the capital is Subsc ribed, and that they ha v e found " one of the moat influenti a l men in L on d on can eeted with the t e legraph wor d" t o j o i n t h e o ° ,, zll.d rse • If the capital really be subscribed, of si n g ° applicant s after this ;d a te ; can rece i ve a igle share, unless, indeed, the subscription has dZn made by parties who are already eager to in ea the o utside public to take their place. If th e s t is t 0 be cons i dered closed from this moment not another Word need be said about the matter, but if stibscri P t iona contiuue to be invited an explanation ti 'ay be ask ed as to what is meant to be conveyed by the announcement that all the capital is taken, and whether, iu fact, it is to be held to imply from the public, or simply that a small knot of ca p it alists have committed themselves to a eert a i a preliminary ri s k. A ccording to a semi- Meial notification transactions have been effected 1 ,,, 0 the £lO shares at 11, or 15 per cent. premium. his should establish one of two facts —either that th e subsc r i p la tion is now full, and there are n o more !hares to be had by applyi ng f or t h em, or t h e pr i ce t he fictitious result of some Stock Exchange °Peral iona akin to those which, previously to 18C6, distinguished the introduction of the most question able fi nance and other companies. That any portion Z f the public should be so eager to invest in a new t heP t ian cabl e as to pay 1 5 per cent. prem i um f or Priv ilege, wh en i t i s i u t h e power o f any se t o f Promoters to bring out further competing lines at Pleas ure, seems an idea too preposterous to be enter- C o ile d ; while, on the other hand, the n a mes p u t forth lu co nnex i on with the present scheme arc too l(aa e etable t o warrant a suspicion that they would 't themselves to a revival of the practices that led be th e disast ers f rom which the nation is but now aboutowe to be s t rengthened by the accession of of t he most i n fl uent i a l men i n t h e telegraph 'world af fords no s ecur i ty to t h e pu bli c as to t h e Sa fety of their scheme as an investment. At the p of reseu t mome n t i t may be feared a majority t he mo s t i nfluential men in the telegraph I.vorld are i nspired in the manner that was or inerly the case among the most influential . m en in the railway t world—na me l y , b y the desire o make a large sum out of the laying out of any great line, and then with all haste to find new em p l oyment by devising a rival one to which the Public may be a tt racted by lower terms :—" Re ferring to the paragraphs which appeared in this Morning's papers stating that the directors of the Franco -Egyptian Telegraph Company were about to withdraw their prospectus, a letter from the secretary was at once posted in the Stock Ex change: giving giving the report an unqualified contra ioland we may state that, on the contrary, the whole of the capital is subscribed, and the cab!e will be manufactured and laid without any delay. The Board of Directors is, we hear, to be strength ened by the addition to its number of one of the most influential men in London connected with the telegraph world." In reply to a communication from the ' of the Balti c A ssociation, the CommitteePostruaster!Ge has intimated th a t no pain s 7l 1 1 .1 spared to improv e the telegraph or expense ~,sy s t em, and th at be m he is quite prepar e d t o increase the mean s of com unication as quickly as circumstances will permit between London awl other important cities of the kingdom. Also that with regard to the special b usiness of the Baltic it is proposed very shortly to carry a pneumatic pipe from Telegraph-street to that establishment in 'Threadneedle-street, through which from 12 to 20 messages can pass in the course of from 10 to 15 seconds. The colonial produce markets this week have b een quiet, owing partly to protracted arrivals and the in disposition of the trade to hold stocks be- Y o nd their requirements while the question of a reduction in the duties is impending.

The series of interesting articles in the Telegraph entitled " Unorthodox London," contains for its last publication it description of the worship amongst the Irvingites. The writer reminds us that at first Irvingism seemed to promise nothing but a more Rationalist Presbyterian Church. It acknowledged, however, two doctrines not generally taught :-1. 'The revival of the Apostolate, dormant since the death of St. John with the restoration of the fourfold ministry as a necessity of Church organisation ; and (2) the recognition of prophecy as a present mode of communicating the directions of God's Spirit to man. The latter has been the means of leading it on till its worship is as ornate and complex as that of the Boman Church. To witness,. however, the full develop ment of this cult us, one must visit Gordon-square, London, at ten o'clock on Sunday morning. There is a short " forenoon service," lasting about half-an-hour. There are nearly fifty clergy in different vestments. The ritual is altogether florid. After it comes the "Eucharistic Service," which is as complicated and ornate as the Roman Mass, though couched, it is true, in the vernacular, but making the sad mistake of wearisome length. The service, commencing at ten, and puoceeding without pause, is not over until nearly one. The sacrificial vestments, on the occasion of the visit of the Telegraph cor respondent, were of white satin, with gold adornments ; the " Angel," as celebrant, wearing the cope. There were people in black tippets and people in puce tippets, and people in short surplices, with coloured stoles (irre verently termed " ribbons " by the present Archbishop of Canterbury), sometimes over one shoulder, some times over both, all very picturesque and incomprehen sible. There were others in a simple white dress, girt in with a cord at the waist. The effect was imposing; but one could not help feeling that all this, in a Romish church or even an English cathedral, comes with some sort of sanction, at all events on the score of antiquity. Concede the prophetic utterance, and every detail has a meaning. But failing this it is simply the old fable of the world on the back of the elephant, the elephant on the back of the stand ingtortoise, and the tortoise stand in on nothing at all. A s a mus i ca l performance the Eucha ristic service at Gordon-square is decidedly above par. The old and venerable-looking gentleman who performs the office of celebrant during two whole hours in that vast building must be blest with the lungs of a Stentor. The rendering of the " Preface" in the monotonous cadence peculiar to ecclesiastical music, and then the burst of music from the choir in the " Trisag,ion," are very effec tive indeed. The " Agnus Dei" was also very sweet. The music chosen for the different parts of the ser vice was as eclectic as the system itself, and this made the tout ensemble a little patchy. Though not called by the special name, there were virtually half-a dozen an th ems, and many repetitions of the Lord's Prayer, during the long morning service. A Homily " preceded the Nicene Creed, and was true to its name. There was no pretence of preachin? power in fact there was rather evident the studious avoidance of all Sower display. Th e su bj ec t was th e a ll egor y o f the _P, which f orme d t h e G ospe l f or t h e d ay h ere as i s Mae Eatablished Church. ccasohise ohfirWe adryp ß ecsai l i t y iz e y o , ::: h.a N ey S ,M ATl cr O n N cci FOß A RAILWAY INJURY.—ne Whittaker v. the Manchester, Sheffield, and Lin the foremOstY stepped out ocnartriag Manchester rore Assizes.o stic e August 20wbas returning to Hyde from Yo T r Wh k e s ill h p i e r ls e a , inan o t n idff th aa e turned out to be the defendant's line.

(From the Anglo-American Times.) " The earth is the LORD'S, and He has given it to His saints," said JOSEPH. "Ye are his saints." We know how rapacious and cruel sinners can be, but " saints" often outdo them, because, if the latter believe in such a proposition as the above, laid down by JOE S3IITH and acted up to by BRIGHAM YOUNG, they join principal with interest, and work with a will, considering they heap up this world's goods at the same time as treasure above. The Mor mon settlement of Utah, always of interest since its foundation, grows more so as the crisis of its end approaches. BRIGHAM'S rule hitherto has been absolute ; once only was a nomination made except at his dictation, and then he was absent at Proro, when his nephew, a mere boy, being named for City Judge, the general dismtisfaction induced his trusty lieutenants, WELLS and CANNON, to allow Bishop WooLLEv to be run instead. Though elected, on BRIGHAM'S return the Bishop dare not qualify, for the prophet was incensed at anything being done without consulting him, or on any person " scratch ing" the regular ticket. A change, however, haa been wrought by the transcontinental railroad, and Gentiles have become so strong as to threaten Mormon supremacy even at Salt Lake City. It is under these circumstances that the cunning poli tician who there rules brought an ally to his aid. The women are more numerous than the men, and the more Mormonish the " saint" is, the greater the number of his women. Henn the desirefor woman suffrage. The world was startled to find among the Mormons, where women were supposed to be most degraded, Woman's Rights first established, the sex there first exercising the ballot ; but the world was ignorant that BRIGHAM was getting into a tight place, and thus compelled to adopt desperate means to maintain his power. YOUNG sees the end approaching. There was a time when he disposed without hesitation of a backslider, and made short work of an editor who dared to publish unpa latable articles. Now a public print iu Salt Lake City discusses without restraint all measures regard. ing the public interest; and even men who are cut off from the Church are permitted to live, to think, and speak, and write. Finally, the Gen tiles have the audacity to run a municipal opposi tion ticket of their own in the New Jerusalem, and BRIGHA3I is compelled to pass a Woman's Rights Ordinance, by way of strengthening the " saints.' What will BRIGHAM and the leading Mormonites do when the Bill making polygamy criminal has passed through Congress ? They have organised an exploring expedition below the Rio Colorado, and a correspondent, writing from Salt Lake City, in alluding to the final exodus from the country, says:— "BRIGHAM has been quietly preparing for it a year or so, deeding houses and property to such of his concubines as he is going to abandon—that he will doom certain apostles and Gentiles to the knife before he goes, the sentence not to be executed, however, till he gets a good way off, so that the blood can in nowise attach to his skirts; that ho will install CANNON here as the Chief Devil, set up " The Kingdom of God" anew in some sweet dell of Arizona, gathering such of the faithful as will, unto it, destroying, of course, what they can't carry away, appoint his son BRIGHAM to succeed him as President, his sons JOHN and JOSEPH to be young BRIG'S Councillors, and then give up tha ghost, submitting, only to death, the self-willed little autocrat." The correspondent, however, thinks that BRIGHAM is not yet ready to leave Salt Lake City, as he has an honourable retreat open involving no humilia tion. He holds that if the Government puts its foot down on the matter by bringing a prominent delinquent to trial, polygamy will cease, and BRIG HAM will say to his people, " This is now a matter between the Government of the United States and the government of the universe. Before any one of you defy the power and authority of the earthly ruler, be very sure within yourself that the Heavenly Ruler has commanded you so to do." They will not find that heaven ordains their opposition to the Go vernment. Most of them have immigrated directly from Europe, infinitely improving their condition by the change. Few remain who were persecuted iu Missouri and Illinois. Not one in three is a poly gamist, and as they have no reason either to hate or to fear the Government, if we except the hostility arising out of the untruthful statements of their leaders, no active resistance will, it is believed, be attempted. Once before BRIGHAM and the saints were tried and quickly succumbed. When General CONNOR commanded, be introduced a provost guard into the City, which appears to have given mortal offence, for the Mormon militia assembled, breath ing the resolve to do or die; but the General was firm, and sent a message that if a drop of Gentile blood was shed through the agency of the militia 30 minutes would be allowed the Mormons to move their women and children out of the town, when he 'would batter it about the elders' ears. BRIGHAM saw that he meant what he said, and the militia was at once disbanded. Learning, too, that the General designed to arrest him he proceeded immediately to the Chief Justice, and gave bonds to appear when wanted. BRIGHAM has acquired an immense amount of property, the ruling traits of his character being avarice and a love of power. JOSEPH SMITH was all for the Church, BRIGHAM YOUNG is all for himself ; and he has made a good thing out of his annual half million of tithing, which he divided with no body and accounted for to nobody. All he has to show in the way of expenditure on behalf of the pub lic is Tabernacle Square ; but he has plenty to show in private property. The impression grows that one of these days some curious " saints" may in quire into the disposal of these funds. Of this fact there appears to be as little doubt in Salt Lake City as in Washington, that the days of Mormondom are drawing to a close. Mr. CuLoat's Bill for the abolition of polygamy was discussed in the House on the 22d Feb., Mr. FITCH speaking strongly in opposition to it. He asserted that the Mormons would regard the passage of the bill as a declara tion of war. Of course they would be extermi nated, but it would be at a cost of millions upon millions of treasure and thousands upon thousands of lives, and the interruption of the new highway to the Indies. Mr. FITCH commanded the marked attention of the House, and Mr. SARGENT, both members from the Pacific slope, earnestly backed his opinion. The prevailing feeling is with these Representatives, the belief being :general that the railway should be left to do the work. The Queen left Buckingham Palace this after noon, and returned to Windsor. A Cabinet Council was held to-day at the official residence of the First Lord of the Treasury, in Downing-street. Sir John Karslake has declined to contest the vacant seat at Bristol in the Conservative interest. The Orchestra hears that the Adelphi and Prin cess's Theatres aro about to pass into the hands of Mr• Boucicault. Lamartine's Chateau of Monceau near Macon is to be sold on the 26th. It is generally anticipated that in the event of Mr. Cardwell's bill for the reorganisation of his depart ment becoming law, Captain Vivian will be appointed Financial Under-Secretary. An English gentleman has written to Mr. Ken nedy on the subject of using the census about to be taken to procure minute information respecting natives of Great Britain resident in America, and suggesting that the British Government should bear the increased expense. The latest telegram from 'Washington relates to the debate which was still progressing on Thursday, when the proposed section making the intarest on the New Bonds payable in European cities was rejected by 29 against 11 votes ; as also was the section appointing agents to nego tiate the Bonds abroad. Mr. Boutwell is not a magician, and cannot therefore turn a Six per Cent. Bond into a Four or Five per Cent. Bond, with the consent of the holder, by a wave of his wand. The Funding Bill might just as well be delayed, for further discussion on the sub ject cannot be attended with any practical result. A tele gram from Now York of the same date says the violent fluc nations in gold have unsettled values, and caused a partial suspension of business generally. The Secretary of the 'l'reasnry, in reply to a resolution of, the lions', states that the total disburse ments in Alaska, since its acquisition by the United States, have been $597,789, and the total revenue from the Ter ritory has amounted to $21,850. Uncle Sam, having thus made so profitable a commencement in the frozen re gions, is going to try his hand at colonizing in the torrid zone, and has made a commencement with San Domingo. Lie finds his old grandmother Britannia shrinking back from her manifest destiny, and recoiling from her colonial empire, and as he thinks it is the business of the race to civilize the world and to subdue it he takes up the role, whether wisely or not time only can tell, The very extensive Distillery now beiog erected at Belfast, with all recant improvements for the manufacture of Irish whisky, by Memos.

It appeared that the testator, wbo died possessed of considerable property, bad left the same in trust to be realised and divided in moieties between his wife and daughter, and the whole to go to the survivor. The daughter died, and the mother claimed according to the terms of the testator's will ; but her claim was disputed. His Lordship confirmed the decision of the Master of the Rolls, which was in favour of the widow. VICE-CHANCERY COURT. HEAToN STEEL AND IRON CO lIPANY. Vice-Chancellor Malins gave judgme 't to-day in a petition by a gentleman maned Andre vs, for tl:e winding up of this company, established in 1868, for the conversion of iron into sted. His lordship refused to make an or.lcr for the winding up, dis missed the petition, and directed that the petitioner sLould pay the costs of the litigation. PULICE INT ELL IG RN C E—This Day. MARLBOROUGH-STREE P. Elizabeth Grace was charged with stealing a parse containing /2 lls. from the pocket of Grace Terri-on, resi ling at No. 165, Gower-street, Bed ford-square, at a supper room in Coventry-street. The prisoner said she was not at the place on the night in question. Mr. Knox thought the evidence insufficient, and discharged the prisoner. THAMES. Henry Allen, a black man, described as an Ameri can, with no fixed residence, was brougnt before Mr. Paget on charges of swindling and fraud. The prisoner waited on Mrs. Ann Fox, of Cross street; Poplar, a few days since and represented that he had just come from Valparaiso, in South America, and asked her if she had not a son there. She replied in the affirmative, and he said he had brought her good news from him ; that he was in good health, and he had sent to his mother a box containing many valuables, and that he only wanted a few shillings to pay the dock charges in the Victoria Dock. She gave the money, but it is almost needless to say she never saw the box or the prisoner until he was taken into custody. Remanded. A young man, named Mark Whitehead, died on Tuesday, at Stalybridge, of hydrophobia, arising from the bite of a mad dog, which he received ten weeks ago. AUSTRIA AND BAVARIA.—The Vienna correspon dent of the Carlsruhe Gazette states that, previous to his departure for Munich to assume the post of Minister for Foreign Affairs, Count Bray inquired what attitude Austria would take in the important question that has led to the Bavarian crisis. He has been informed that Austria was resolved not to interfere in the internal affairs of Ger many, and would carefully avoid anything that looked like encroachment in matters that did not directly con cern her. TELEGRAPHS IN GERIeANY.—The North German Correspondent says that twenty-nine communes have expressed their willingness to erect telegraphic lines at their own expense, in connection with the existing net, on condition of the North German telegraphic administra tion undertaking them when complete, and returning half the sum expended upon them. There is reason to believe that this good example will be followed, and 10,000 thalers have been set aside for the purpose by the tele graphic administration in their estimates for 1871. EARTHQUAKE AT ANCONA.—A. tremendous shock of earthquake has been lately felt at .Ancona. All the bells of the city were rung, the clocks stopped, furniture thrown down. and the statue of Victor Emmanuel, which had been presented to the Bourse, broken in pieces. Another severe shock took place on the bth, and, though it did not occasion so much damage, was felt in a more extended area, and even as far as Bologna, Faenza, and Ravenna. The volcanic action appears most active in Central and Southern Italy at present, and fresh erup tions are expected. ELECTORAL REFORM IN AUSTRIA.—In the matter of electoral reform in Austria, the Austrian Government has decided in favour of the scheme for doubling the number of deputies by preserving the present mode of election by the large proprietors and the members of the Chambers of Commerce, the deputies of towns, and the representatives of the rural communes:, 13y this means the Chamber will possess 406 members; the - new members will be elected by direct suffrage, while the other half of the Chamber will continue as at present to be chosen by the Diets. The Ministerial scheme contains as an addi tion a form of oath, by which every candidate promises that he will take his seat if he is elected deputy. THE DOINGS OF THE POPE.—The Vatican this week contains nothing new or striking about the Council ; it has no news worth mentioning, save the letters of several Fathers in favour of the dogma. It tells, however, a story of the Pope :—"Not long ago, being in his carriage outside the walls of Rome, Pius IX. overtook the Bishops of Poitiers and Angou leme, who were taking a walk with their theologians, Canon Sauvd and Father Dorvan. Descend ing from his carriage, the Pope said to the bishops :—" My brothers, I must join you in your walk." His s t e p was firm _and active, and as he observed that the Bishop of Angouleme walked with a stick, ho said gaily :—" As forme, I do not use a walking-stick ; I like to present a good appear ance to my children, and it is only when I am in the country that I allow myself one." Pursuing their way, they found a coachman on his knees in the road, holding his horses by their bridle. " What ! are you there ?my dear Michael, my poor Michael !" exc l aime d th e P ope. " You have then left your oars and your boat. It is a long while since we were at Gaeta." Then, turning to the Bishops, he added :—" This good man was my boatman when I was in exile at Gaeta." Michael shed tears of joy in being thus recognised after twenty years by the Vicar of Christ. A little further on they came to a poor man sitting by the side of the road. The Pope went up to him, gave him his blessing, and calling him by his name, put a few pieces of money in his hand. ' Cognosco oyes meal,' he said to th e Bi s h o p, with that ind escr ib a bl e accent of tenderness which belong to him alone." To•day's Birmingham Post says that Mr. G. P. Munts, of Umberslade, has given practical effect to the pro posal he lately made, that arrangements should be entered into between landlords and tenants to ascertain the damage sustained by the latter by the ravages of game, with the view of the landlord making compensation for the tenants' losses. Mr. Muntz has issued a circular to his tenants, requesting them to meet on an early day, in order to choose a properly qualified valuer to assess any damage that may have been, or may be, sustained; and when the name of the valuer selected is communicated to Mr. Muntz, that gentleman will appoint a valuer to act for himself. Another letter from Professor Goldwin Smith has been published, and this time, instead of warning away all emigrants from the United States, he recommends Virginia. Although Mr. Smith reproduces the ideas to which expression has already been given in this paper, and so far commands our support, yet, in our eyes, he is narrow in Lis views, a contraction which probably results from the want of experience in travel. We know nothing of Mr. Smith's history, but we can a... 3 that ho is wanting in that scope observable in Sir Charles Mike, however, young the latter in comparison ; and we suppose the rea son to be, that while Sir Charles has been knocking about the world, having the rough edges of prejudice and sen timentality rubbed off, the Professor has been study ing history. Mr. Smith hears around him bitter remarks against England, as any man will who lives in the Union especially in any north-eastern State ; just as any Ameri can inEngland will hearunpalatable remarks about his coun try. Detraction attends greatness, as do envyand jealousy, with nations as with individuals, and both the Republic and the kingdom will be abused and will heartily abuse each other so long as they are leaders in the world. If England sank to a third-rate power no ono would hear England abused in Lmerica; but whild the nations are running neck and neck, if Goldwin Smith expects that jealousy will not be manifested in neither, ho may know much of history, yet he still has something to learn of human nature. It is evident that he attaches an undue importance to the observations of passengers in the cars and steam boats, and deduces from the fact that, seeing encouragement is given to the hostility of the that the Northern !States aro unfriendly to the settlement of Englishmen ; hence he would direct all English emigration to Virginia, making the Old Dominion thoroughly English—and so would we; but we would try our hand on Kansas, Min nesota, Colorado, and California as well. If what Mr. Goldwin Smith proposes for Virginia be good, it is good also for Kansas and Minnesota, and Englishmen will in deed have deteriorated as emigrants, if they are beaten rota any desirable field by Irish hostility. Mr. Leavy Brown, formerly attaché to the British Legation at Pekin, and attached to the late Mr. Burlin game's embassy, on account of his great knowledge of the Chinese language, lately arrived in London from Paris, and, after a long interview with Lord Clarendon, started for St. Petersburg. He expects, it is said, to find a de spatch there appointing him successor to Mr. Burlingame. [ADVERTISEMENT.I Holloway's Ointment and Pills.— Amongst the many bad effects resulting from climatic variations, it is notable that the blood becomes languid, and c9ngestion of the capillaries much greater during winter.
