MONEY' MARKET A ND )011111dERCIAL (NTELLIGE TWELVE O'CLOCK. There is no change whatever in the Money Mar ket, and business in the City of all descriptions is very inanimate. The Finance Committee of the . Corporation of London are prepared to dispose of City Debenture Bonds to the amount of £200,000. They will be issued at par for sums of £l,OOO, £5OO, and £lOO each fur a period of ten years, bearing interest payable half-yearly by means of coupons at the Bank of England, at the rate of £4 15s. per cent. per annum. The principal and interest are secured upon the rents of the New Metropolitan Meat and Poultry Market in Smithfield. Atlantic and Great Western Railway Debentures remain steady at 31 33 ; and the Consolidated Mortgage Bonds at 231 241. No gold operations of importance took place at the Bank of England yesterday. _ _ The fourth ordinary general meeting of the City Offices Company will be held at Palmerston's buildings, Bishopsgate-street, on Thursday, the 28th instant, at one o'clock. It has been announced that the scrip certificates of the United Danubian Principalities 8 per Cent. Loan will be ready for delivery at the offices of Messrs. Fruhling and Goschen on and after the 14th Instant. At a meeting held to-day of the Atlantic Tele graph Company, Mr. Saward, in moving the adop tion of the report, stated that their bill in Parlia ment for the purpose of raising additional capital Would no doubt pass, the opposition on the part of the Anglo-American Company and the Telegraph Construction Company having been withdrawn. The directors' report was unanimously agreed to. Messrs. Neill Brothers in their Cotton Circular, received per Africa, dated New York, February 12th, state as follows :—For many weeks past our report of the weekly receipts has been considerably larger than certain others which have been published. On the 22d ult. we gave details of the receipts for the two weeks ending 11th ult. We now submit details for the succeeding three weeks, and also particulars of the nett receipts at all ports from Ist September to the latest mail dates, all which can easily be veri fied by reference to the various southern prices cur rent of the dates referred to.

The operations in sugar have been on an exceedingly small scale pending the alteration in the duties which come into operation on the Ist May. Coffee, however, has been in fair request at steady rates, while in tea, rice, fruit, and spices, only mode rate operations have been effected at about former values. For tallow the inquiries have been very moderate on the part of the trade, and but little speculative ,business has been reported, quota tions for both present and forward delivery being without material Alteration. Tw• o'CLocK. At the Paris Bourse this morning, according to Reuter's telegram, the 3 per Cent. Rentes opened at 69f.95c. It is satisfactory to be able to record a conside rable improvement in all Governmental Stocks, others following iu their wake. This is to be attri buted to the increasing confidence felt in the pre- Sent Administration, and the steady purchases made by investors, among whom the Government broker bits not been the least conspicuous ; his operations may have given some tone to the market, but it is to the buying of the i.ublic at large to which the Improvement must be ascribed. Consols closed yes terday at a rise of i t ; to-day per cent. has been added to that advance, the latest prices being 91f for money, and 91/ for the 7th proximo.

A fair amount of business has been transacted in the Railway Share Market and a farther slight im provement can be reported.

Upon making inquiries this morning, it appears that the whole of the persons who escaped from the burning house in Bryanston-street, Edgware-road, by jumping out of the windows, were, with the exception of the poor woman who was removed to St. Mary's Hospital, progressing favourably. Large crowds still continue to flock round the ruins, which are in charge of the Metropolitan Fire Bri gade, the London Salvage Corps, and the police. A very searching inquiry has been made for the pur pose of tracing out the origin of the catastrophe, but at present nothing of a reliable character has been ascertained. The Salvage Corps, it is expected, will endeavour to find out, in some part of the building, how the fire commenced. ATLANTIC TELEGRAPH COMPANY. MEETING THIS DAY. The tenth ordinary annual meeting of this company was held to-day at the London Tavern, J. S. Worley, Esq., the chairman of the company, presiding. The report, which has been published, was taken as read. The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report claimed the indulgence of the meeting in consequence o his state of health, and congratulated the shareholders on the improved state of the company's affairs. The answers that have been transmitted during the past year by the company's agency had been considerably increased At the present time the company's works were in so effi cient a state that they could transmit on an average from fifteen to twenty words in a minute, instead of five or six words as previously. In reference to the course adopted by the directors in reducing the amount of their tariff, he said that the company's receipts had risen from £BOO a day to £9OO, and occasionally to £2,000. (Cheers.) He alluded to the practice which had been adopted by partiei in send ing messages by cypher, which defrauded the company, and suggested the advisability of still further reducing the tariff, Sir C. LAMBSON seconded the motion, which, after some discussion, was agreed to. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE.

' ' MORE ALARMING FIRES.—Two alarming fires happened this morning—one in the, premises of Mr. Squire, corn dealer, No. 38, Old-street, St. Luke's. The discovery was made by one of the inmates finding his room filled with smoke. lie at once sounded an alarm, and the whole of the inmates managed to escape in safety. Conductors Shaw and Puzey promptly attended with the Royal Society's escapes, and were followed by steam and manual power engines. Plenty of water having been ob tained the firemen went to work, but they were unable to get the fire extinguished until the premises and contents were nearly destroyed. Tho origin of the fire is unknown. The sufferers were insured in the Phoenix Fire-office. The other fire took place in the premises of Mr. T. Jones, marina store dealer, No. 10, Lamb's Conduit-passage, Red Lion-street, Holborn. Conductors Woodham and Last arrived with the Royal Society's escapes, and were suc ceeded by several land steamers, by Shand, Mason, and Co.'s, and plenty of the Grand Junction Company's water being procured, the firemen in the space of au hour suc ceeded in getting the flames subdued, but the stock in trade was nearly destroyed. The origin of the fire is also unknown. MADAME ERNST, whose accomplishments as a reader are considerable, has been giving, at the Athende, a " Conference," having for subject " The Women of Cor neille and Racine." A richer mine presents itself (sug gests the Athenaeum; in the women of Moller°, the dramatist, who, as a creator of types, stands next to Shakspere.

THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EV E.NING, MARCH 1), 1867. SHARE MARKETS-This day. ORDINARY SHARES AND STOCKS. POLICE INTELLIGENCE..--;-This Day. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. ABUSE OF KlNDNmss.—Thos. Wood, an inmate of the workhouse of St. George, Hanover-square, Mount-street, charged with stealing a suit of clothes of the value of £2 Os. 3d., the property of the guardians of the parish, was again brought before Mr. Tyrwhitt. Mr. F. A. Rogers attended on the part of the parish, and said that as some surprise was felt last week at the amount stated as the value of the clothes, he wished to explain that the clothes in question were clothes provided by the guardians for the inmates to wear when they went out to visit their friends, so that it sliJuld not be known that they were inmates of a workhouse. The clothes were contracted for at the rate of £2 Os. 33. a suit, and each in mate was measured for them. He had caused one of the inmates to be in attendance for his worship's inspection. A man stepped forward attired in a suit of the clothes, and he presented a very respectable and creditable appear ance. Mr. Tyrwhitt said the prisoner's conduct towards the parish had been most improper. The clothes were lent the prisoner so that nothing should be said about his being in a workhouse, and then he had made away with them. What made the prisoner's conduct worse was, that it dis couraged parishes from being kind to people. lie should commit the prisoner for a month with hard labour. SWALLOWING COUNTERFEIT COlN.—Samuel M'Shay and Jane M'Donald were charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with uttering a counterfeit florin, at the Ship Tavern, Upper Marylehone-street, with intent to defraud Mr. Vickery, the landlord. G. White,.a barman in Mr. Vickery's employ, said that the prisoners came into his employer's house and called for some drink and tendered a counterfeit florin in payment. He then sent for a constable and gave the prisoners into custody. Hugh Tabrer, 143 D, said that while taking the pri soners across Bedford-square, on the way to the station, he saw the malo prisoner attempt to swallow something. Ho seized his throat and called for assistance, but the prisoner succeeded in swallowing what he had put into his mouth. James Galland, 746 A, said that on going to the last wit ness's assistance he saw the male prisoner trying to swallow something, and whilst searching him at the station, he said, " You can have all the -- soft stuff (bad money) I have outside of me. All I had I have now got inside of me" (meaning that he had swallowed it). The prisoner also said "I can swallow the biggest super (watch) that you or any other man ever saw." He found a bad shilling upon him. In answer to Mr. Tyrwhitt, the police stated they did not think the female prisoner was connected with the male prisoner. M‘Shay said that he met the woman, and merely asked her to have something to drink. Mr. Tyrwhitt remanded the prisoner, but consented to take bail for the woman. THAMES. BASTARDY ARREARS —CAUTION.—WiIIiam Anly, an Irish labourer, was brought up on a warrant to show cause why he should not pay 13 half-crowns to a young Irish woman, named Johanna Gibbons, who said the child she carried in hor arms had been affilated on the prisoner, and he was ordered to pay 2s. Gd. per week for its maintenance. He was six months in arrear, or £3 2s. 6d. in all, but she could only summons him for 13 weeks money. Mr. Partridge askod the prisoner why he did not pay the woman ? The prisoner said that he had been out of work some time, and could not meet the demand upon him. The complainant said she summoned the prisoner last November, and he then made the same defence. He could pay, but ho would not pay. He got over her "with his brogue and blarney- and bothering ways," and he would not pay for his child, which was exactly like him. She then raised the child above her head, and exhibited it, amidst great laughter._ _ Mr. Partridge asked the prisoner if he couhrpay any portion of the arrears due to the poor woman ? The prisoner—l can't pay a farthing. Mr. Partridge said the prisoner had made no effort what ever to pay any portion of t 1.43 arrears, and he could not be permitted to set the law at defiance. Ile sentenced the prisoner to be imprisoned for three months and kept to hard labour. THE UTILITY OF POLICE REPORTS. - Henry Timms, a carman in the service of Joseph Baxendale and Co., com monly known as Pickford's, Haydon-square, Minories, was brought before Mr. Partridge, charged with stealing a lady's seal-skin coat, valued at £lB. The prisoner's wife was detained by Mr. Folkard, pawn broker, and his assistants, on Friday last. She offered a seal-skin coat in pawn, and her answers as to her posses sion of it not being satisfactory, Mr. Folkard, who has done so much for the interests of public justice, detained her. A notice of the case having appeared in the news papers, an owner for the coat now appeared. The pri soner received a deal box containing two seal-skin coats at the Haydon-square railway station on Friday morning, for delivery to Sutton and Co., Aldersgate-street. There was only one coat piece in it when delivered. Another had bee❑ taken out. Mr. Bale, foreman to Baxendale and Co., said the priso ner had been hi the service of his employers 15 years. Mr. Partridgo—How do you know it is worth .£lB ? Mr. Gale said the coat piece was worth £l7. That. was what the firm, who were agents of the North Western Railway, would have had:to pay if the coat had not boon recovered. Mr. Partridge remanded the• prisoner till Friday, and said the people who sent the coat piece from Birmingham must then attend, or the case would fail. MARKETS. —This day. HAY.

TEL—The market has remained very quiet, and without an y material alteration to report in prices. About 3,393 packages of Indian will be offered for public competition to-clay. SUGAR.—Business has remained very inactive, and the few dealings entered into have been of quite a retail cha racter, at about previous rates. Refined goods also are in limited request, without any change in values. COFFEE.-There has been a good demand for colonial descriptions, and owing to the smallness of stocks on hand compared with those of the corresponding period of last year fully late rates aro maintained. RICE.—A moderate amount of business has been entered into in cleaned descriptions, which have generally supported former rates. SALTPETRE.-A steady tone has been apparent in tbo market, but very little business has been entered into. The export duty in India of 3 per cent. has been repealed, which is equal to about 4i per cent. on the shipping price at Calcutta. TALLOW.—The market has been steady during the past week, maintained chiefly by a demand for export, the home trade being only moderate. From St. Petersburg the latest advices bring the price 47 to 47} silver roubles and the exchange 3lid. 15-16. To-day the market is a shade firmer. 435. is paid for the month, 44'. for October to December ; on the spot, the price is 438. ; South Ameri can, 448.; town tallow, 425. nett cash. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET. (This Day.) The Market opens with a rather steady tone Sales probably 6,000 or 8,000 bales. FOOT BRIDGES OVER CROWDED THOROUGHFARES. —For years past the construction of bridges for foot pas sengers at such dangerous crossings as those at the St. Paul's end of Cheapside, and where the six ways meet op posite the Bank, Mansion House, and Royal Exchange, has been from time to time advocated, and we have frequently urged the thorough practicability of the suggestion, and•the small cost at which it could be carried out. Whilst .the English have been talking, the Americans have been act ing; one of the most handsome and substantial structures that could be desired having already been erected over Broadway, New York, by Messrs. Rich and Griffiths, at a cost of only £4,000. • The bridge has been proved capable of sustaining 101 tons, and 100 men trampling over it at, the same time produced no perceptible vibration. The bridge is situated where Fulton-street crosses Broadway, and the four corners ar3 conveniently connected. There is 17 feet 8 inches clear under the bridge, which is ap proached by four flights of 34 steps each, each flight hav ing three landings. Surely the Corporation of London, although they could not be induced to set the example, will not longer delay the consideration of the matter, now that they have the Broadway bridge as a precedent.— Mining Journal. BRISTOL CATTLE MARKET, MARCH 7.—There was a good supply of horned stock ; but the demand was steady, and prices were well supported. Best samples brought from 70s. to 735. per cwt.; and middling from 635. to 68s. par cwt. Sheep sold readily at fully last week's currencies. There was a very largo supply of pigs, which had a good'sale at fully the late currencies. Owing to our fair having just closed, there were very few horses offering, and those on show were of inferior quality. In store animals there was little passing. The lighted end of a cigar thrown on the ground in a dancing-saloon at Wes°ley, near Pardubitz, in Bohemia, recently set ou fire the dresses of throo young women, one of whom has since died of the injuries received, and the others are lying in a dangerous state. ROYAL FREE HOSPITAL, GRAY'S-INN-ROAD. — The number of patients relieved at this hospital during the week ending March 9 was 3,265, of which 1,073 were new cases. Reform Demonstration in Trafalgar-square. Last evening the Reform League held its demon stration, adjourned from the acknowledged failure of the previous Monday, in Trafalgar-square. The placard calling the meeting announced as the attrac tion that the square should be "specially lighted," and half an hour before the advertised time, which had been fixed, by the experience of the previous failure, at 8 o'clock, as the " right time for working men," there was not only a very large gathering, mostly of roughs and boy s, about the Nelson column, but every point which could command a view of the column, even so far back as the steps of St. Martin's Church, was crowded with spectators who did not care to venture among the rough specimens of their " own flesh and blood" in the square itself. Endea vours to rouse the Reform enthusiasm of the crowd were made by men who offered forsale books of " Re form songs, published under the authority of the League," and adorned with the "portrait of the pre sident, Edmond Beales, Esq., M.A." But the trade was very limited, for those who had money dared not make any exposure of it in the face of the assembled vagabonds, who did not hesitate, even while the meeting was proceeding, to commit openly acts of violence upon persons in the crowd, and plunder them of whatever valuables they had. At the time when the meeting commenced the large space between the column and the fountains was quite full, and there must have been several thousand persons present. The majority of these were rough in their dress, and were evidently of the lowest class of labouring men, intermixed with the regular roughs and a very large number of boys and youths. The special lighting was an illumination by means of the out-door naphtha lamps used by cos termongers, which were hoisted upon long sticks, and interspersed about the platform (the base of the Nelson column) and among the crowd. The people evidently were disappointed atthedisplay, for when the lights were brought into position there were loud cries of " Do you call them lime lights?" The appeal made to the people by " Order of the, Council-of the Reform League" was as follows : " Men of London ! Beware of a comproinise be tween the unwilling Tory Reformers and false Libe rals, whose only object is to defeat the full enfran chisement of the people. Our meetings and demon strations have been sneered at, but their effect is seen in the secession of ultra-Tories from the present Government, and the manifest anxiety of all parties to come to a settlement of the Reform question ;' but their idea of a settlement and ours differ very widely. The victory is ours if we do not relax our exertions. Those at the helm have undertaken no willing task, their heart is not in the work, and an attempt will still be made, if we are not firm, to cheat the unrepresented millions out of the franchise by some delusive and fragmentary measure. If, then, we really value our rights, we must all be up and doing ; firm to our duty, pressing on to the hour of triumph with earnestness of purpose and singleness of heart." Soon after 8 o'clock Mr. Beales, M.A., accom panied by Mr. C. Bradlaugh, and others of the Re form League, several of whom were present on the previous Monday, made their way through the crowd, and were hoisted or pulled on to the granite level with Landseer's Lions. Mr. BEALES, in opening the proceedings, expressed his pleasure at meeting his friends in this Trafalgar square Parliament—this people's Parliament—to consider a subject so deeply interesting to them as their right, their unquestionable and constitutional right, to be represented in that other Parliament now sitting at Westminster-hall, and which, with out representing the people, claimed the power to make laws and impose taxes obligatory upon the people:; but, which laws and taxes, according to the spirit and letter of the Constitution, according to all the principles of true representative government, and civil and political liberty, that Parliament had no real right or authority to make or impose without the people's consent. (Cheers.) It was time there should be no more mistake or misunderstanding about what were the people's positive and clear rights, for they ought to be the creators of that Par liament now sitting at Westminster-hall. Unless created and chosen by the people, that Parliament had no constitutional or national existence, and was exercising only au usurped and unconstitutional authority. (Cheers.) It was asked why these meet ings and this agitation were continued when all they sought was so favourably placed. His answer was that the victory was not secure, and the people w_ould_not lay down their arms, nor abate one jot of their exertions until the victory was won beyond the possibility of trick or evasion. (Cheers.) It had been told them that the Reform League was to be resisted to the utmost. That was only to be expected ; but to be forewarned was to be forearmed, and he could tell their 'enemies that the League would not be found sleeping at their posts. He disliked all allu sions to physical force, as calculated to alienate friends and alarm the timid ; but the league had shown that it was not slow to act when action was required, and it would be time enough to resist force in self-defence when force was used against them. (Cheers.) He proceeded to discuss the rumoured bill of the Government, and he held that it was ap parent by all that had transpired that the people's cause was not yet won, inasmuch 'as the Govern ment did not intend to give the people their full and legitimate rights. He concluded by saying that the people would frankly welcome from the Government a full and honest measure of Reform ; but that they would denounce and resist to the utmost any halt ing and dishonest measure contrived .to trick and cheat them, or any large portion of them, under any pretext whatever, out of their birthright. Dr. PEturrr moved the following resolution : " That any measure of Parliamentary Reform, although based upon household suffrage, as now re ported of the Government plan, will be inefficient and unsatisfactory as regarded the just and full re presentation of intellect and labour, unless such suffrage be made substantially identical with re sidential manhood suffrage, by the right of voting being given to lodgers equally with all the occupiers, whether as owners or tenants, of houses or parts of houses, unaccompanied by any ratepaying or other restrictive conditions, and be also protected in its free exercise by the ballot ; the period of residence in no case to be required to exceed 12 months." In moving this he said that even men with fair incomes could not obtain houses for themselves in London, but were obliged to become lodgers, and a. lodger franchise would give the vote to members of pro fessions, as well as to the working men. Mr. MANTLE seconded the resolution, and he de clared amid loud cheers that the people were not afraid of the Government, but that the Government had shown itself afraid of them. As to the Parlia ment,.he said, the people would have confidence in it when it proved it had confidence in the people ; and if the people were forced to a struggle, that struggle would end only with the existence of the Parliament. (Cheers.) The people, be continued, would sit in perpetual session until they had their rights. They had met in Hyde-park, and they had' rolled the ball down to Trafalgar-square, when it would be easy, he said, amid cheers, and pointing in the direction of the houses, to send it rolling that way. He concluded, amid continued cheers, by say ing that those who had taken up this cause would make all Government in this country impossible un til justice were done to the people of the United Kingdom. Mr. BRADLAUGH, who was loudly called for, ad dressed the assemblage. He said those who were carrying on this struggle had not entered into it without counting the cost, and that the people of England, confident in their own strength and in their own manhood, were determined to petition for their rights, not ou paper, but with the loud thun derings of their demands at the very door of the Houses of Parliament. What Lord Derby had offered them had not been offered in love, but in fear, and the people would have the full measure of the rights this time. It was told them that if in trusted with power the people would legislate wrongly, but how had the present power legislated? This legislation had brought rebellion in one part, and the people could do no worse than that. He told the people to be like a resistless wave, and if those who held the power should dare to stem the tide of democracy that they should unflinchingly wreck them. The resolution was then carried amid acclamation. Share r (tit .1,01 tans grefUr Caledonian —• Cambrian dork and Bandon...—.

This meeting, therefore earnestly iuvit.s the working classes and all true Reformers throughout the Unite 1 Kingdom to , support the Reform League in c,,n tinning its energetic and valUable labours on behalf of the rights of the people, until the victory is ob tained by the unrepresented being placed in the full and free exercise and enjoyment of the elective franchise." Mr. LI:CRAFT seconded this, which was also car ried utianitnoti6ly. By the time the business had reached this stage the masses of the people began to sway to and fro, and very little of what the speakers said could be heard even by those who stood clone beside them. A third resolution, denouncing any employment of the Volunteers to suppress political meetings, was to have been brought before the meeting; but, as raiu and sleet began to fall, this was not proposed, and the proceedings concluded with a vote of thanks to the chairman. Royal Geographical Society. Last evening, at a meeting of the Royal Geo graphical Society, held at Burlington-house, there was an unusually large attendance - of Fellows, members, and visitors, attracted probably by the belief that some additional information would' be afforded in reference to the reported murder of the great African traveller, Dr. Livingstone, contra dictory or otherwise, as Sir Roderick Murchison, the President, had led the public to expect. At half-past 8 o'clock Sir Henry Rawlinson took the chair. On doing so he said, he had to apologise in the first place for the unusual incident of his oc cupying the place of their very popular president, Sir Roderick Murchison ; but Sir Roderick was indisposed, and had delegated the office to him, one of the Vice-presidents of the society. Sir R. Murchison particularly desired to have been present on that occasion, in order to make an explanatory statement to the society in regard to the announce ment which had already appeared in the news papers as to what they feared to have been the untimely fate of the great traveller, Dr. Livingstone. Most of those present were doubtless already acquainted with the circumstances attending the alleged death from the letters in The Sun; but, as there might be some who were not, he read that of Dr. Kirk, who, writing from Zanzibar on the 26th of December last, stated, in effect, that on the sth of that month nine Johanna men of the party which had accompanied Livingstone returned to Zan iibar, reporting that on the west of Lake Nyassa, some time between the end of July and September, they were suddenly attacked by a band of Mazite, and that Dr. Livingstone, with half his party, were murdered. They all agreed that they saw the body of Livingstone, and that it had one wound, that of an axe, at the back of the neck, although in the details and in other things the accounts of the vari ous men differed. The Chairman continued to s a y that Sir Roderick Murchison had written a few lines in reference to the statement of Dr. Kirk, which he would read to them. Sir Roderick said : " Regretting particularly that; owing to indis position, I am unable to attend the meeting this evening, I beg the Fellows of the Society to recol lect that in announcing the reported death of my dear and valued friend, Dr. Livingstone, I spoke of it as an event which required to be substantiated by better evidence than thatof the nine menof Johanna in the Comore Islands who brought the sad intelli gence. I am informed by travellers who know these people well that they are Mahomedans, who, if they became disgusted with or intimidated by the fero ciOus Pagan natives on the borders of the Lake Nyassa, may have abandoned their chief, and hav ing agreed upon the story they were to tell, would hold firmly in . maintaining its truth. There are also several parts of their narrative which seem to - me to be difficult to understand—their being hidden in a wood, and yet their observation on the attack of Livingstone being so accurately described. Again, if, as the Johanna men - state, they_ buried their leader, is it likely that they would in such a case not have brought away with them some relic to vouch for the truth of their story ? Presuming that if hostile natives had killed Livingstone, they would have cared little for his note-books ; one of these alone, .or even a lock of his hair would haVe been good auxiliary evidence. Further, when I recol lect that many an African traveller who has re turned safely to England has been reported to have been killed (usually by runaway natives, who had deserted him), I shall not abandon all hope until Dr. Kirk, the former devoted companion of Living stone, and who has gone towards the scene of the alleged disaster, shall. have satisfied himself that the calamity really occurred, and that the philan thropists and geographers have lost the great tra veller who had already won for himself imperishable renown. (Cheers.) I have only to add that the more detailed account which Dr. Kirk had sent to me be fore the letter which appeared in the newspapers was written will, I apprehend, throw a littie new light upon the alleged murder, as it can be nothing more than a detailed account of - the story as related by the Johanna men. The search into the truthful ness or otherwise of the account received must occupy some time.—RODERICK I. MURCHISON. March 11." He (the Chairman) could have wished that Sir Ro derick himself had been present, because he had studied the subject; but he agreed with him in thinking that it was a very lame story as it stood at present, and, he thought, ought not to be accepted without further verification. Again, it was eight or nine months since the disaster was reported to have occurred—namely, in July last ; and if it had not taken place he could not help thinking that they would have had some telegram from. Egypt .contradicting the story. That was the dark side of the account. In the mean time they must have patience as to the result. If it should turn out, however, that poor Livingstone was no more, science would have sustained an irre parable injury, and everyone of the Fellows of the Royal Geographical Society would have lost a per sonal friend. (Hear, hear.) The meeting then proceeded with the business on the paper, which, though of considerable interest in itself, had not the immediate interest attaching to the painful rumour .as to the fate of the great African explorer. Naval and Military Intelligence. The following officers at Chatham garrison have been placed under orders for embarkation for foreign service :—Capt. E. D. Malcolm and Lieut. W. J. Galwey, Royal Engineers, to proceed to Halifax ; Capt. F Ilime, Royal Engineers, to embark for Malta on the 20th inst. ; Capt. 11. C.

An official telegram was yesterday sent to the authorities of Woolwich garrison and arsenal from the Secretary,pf State for War, annonneing The in tention of his Excellency Shachim Pas comman der-in-chief of the military forces of Egypt, to visit Woolwich during the day. At three o'clock p.m. the Pasha and suite arrived from London in three carriages. They entered the Royal Artillery mess room, and having had some slight refreshment, they were escorted by Captain Williams, the General's Aide-de-Camp, to the Royal Ars.enal. On account of the advanced period of the day, some of the de partments only could be visited, as his Excellency was desirous of doing, and the completion of the inspection was postponed to a future day.

FLORENCE, March 11 (Noon). The result of the definitive elections known up to the present shows that out of 88 candidates returned 66 are favourable to the Government, the remaining 2 belonging to the Opposition. In 156 contested elections, 108 Government candid ites have been successful over the Opposition. We hear that, under distinguished patronage, a very select company is being formed by Mr. Charles Wyndham, of the New Royalty Theatre, from amongst the stars and favourites of our boards to perform burlesques and ballets at the fashion able Theatre of Enghieu-acs-Rains, near Paris, and also give representations iu Paris during the forthcoming summer. We have no doubt that each member of the company will reap all the reward they deserve, and that the visitors to the Paris Exhibition will, by their applause, el-own ate reputation of our artists, and add new laurels to their wreath of Successes. • At a meeting of the members of the Royal Insti tution on Friday evening, the Rev. W. Groenwell deli vered a lecture on "The Yorkshire \Vold Tumuli." It is stated on relable authority that the Prussian Government is about to open negotiations with the Grand Duchy of Mecklenburg reative to the con clusion of a treaty of commerce and the future position of Mecklenburg to the Zollverein.

The speculation that took place was wholly confined to the Two Thoasand and the Derby. For the first-mentioned race, Plaudit maintained his position of first favourite, and he was backs(' for a small amount at 7 to 2, but if 4 to 1 could have been laid some hundreds would have been invested at that price. As it was, one gentleman accepted 100 to 40 about him, "with a run." Julius was slightly less firm for at one time 100 to 15 was laid against him, but ho after! wards found support at 6 to 1, which odds were, however, freely offered to the close. Hermit was in considerable force; 1,100 to 100 was taken in ono bet, and several smaller outlays were made at the same rate. Vauban ex hibited signs of retrogression, as much as 12 to 1 being laid and offered. Mr. Merry's candidate, Marksman, came in for a fair share of support at 15 to 1 and 14 to 1, and 1,000 to 100 was also accepted with a start. Knight of the Garter was made the medium of a .£lOO investment at 20 to 1, but his price did not shorten in consequence, and there appeared to be more layers than backers in his case. One of the representatives of the French stable, Trocadero, was supported at 30 to 1, and the betting on this race wound up with a double event bet of 100 to 50 about Plaudit and Julius. For the Derby, the Rake's name was not men tioned, and D'Estournel was offered against at 9 to 1, with out finding takers. Hermit, for this, as for the other race, was much inquired after, and 10 to 1 was accepted kindly about him. Plaudit was supported for a trifle at 14 to 1, and 1,000 to 30 was taken three times about the Palmer. In the course of the afternoon the following notice in reference to the bets in the Soiled Dove case was posted in the room:— " Soiled Dove, three years old, having been disqualified by Rule 17, all bets which were won on the three sweep stakes and match must be refunded, as well as the money for which she was backed. The second horses in each case of the races alluded to being the bona fide winners of the stakes and bets. " Rous, " G. PATE, FREDIE. FITZGERALD.
