The Russian plenipotentiaries having been asked whether according to the tsnour of their instructions, they thought themselves sufficiently autho rised to adhere, in principle, to the demand of a reduc tion of their fie- t, replied in the negative, but declared their readiness to transmit the demand to their Govern ment ad referendum. If I am well informed, the total number of vessels of war which Russia would be per mitted to keep up in the Black Sea would not exceed eight. Will Russia subscribe to this condition of peace? That is the question. Her reply, if it is to be purely and simply negative, might have arrived at Vienna by electric telegraph eight or ten days ago. It is there fore evident that the Court of St. Petersburg, find ing that the demand of the allied powers is categorical, and that it cannot hope to effect any modification in it, will not give a reply, without adopting some measures to prevent the negotiations being broken off. It was remarked that when M. Drouyn de l'lluys produced his powers at the sitting of the 9th, Prince Gortschakoff and M. de Titoff very minutely examined them. It is the usual custom for a plenipotentiary to hand his powers to the President, who afterwards passes them round to each member of the Conference. In a general way, this is merely a matter of form en 1 with the exception of the President, no one reads the teems of such powers, as Prince Gortschakoff and M. de Titoff did on the present occasion. The Russian plenipotentiaries pro bably wished to discover how far M. Drouyn de l'Huys was authorised by- his sovereign to declare the answer of Russia satisfactory or not, without being on er the necessity of referrsng to Parts. I may add that the ful powers of M. Drouyn de l'lluys are as extended as possible, and that he is duly authorised to affix his initials to the preliminaries of peace, or to declare that the Western Powers consider the Conference as closed, according as the reply expected from St. Petersburg shall be yes or no. M. Drouyn de l'Hey-i a Lord John Russell have positively declared that the continua tion f the Col ferences will be useless if the reply of the Court of St. Petersburg be nut satisfactory. Before a week, therefore, the question of peace or war will be decided." PRUSSIA. - _ A letter from Berlin of the 15th, in the Debats, says :—" It is singular that it should be now said at Vienna, that the plenipoten tiaries have too little time to discuss the numerous points on which it will be necessary to come to an understanding. This evidently is only a kind of feeler, in order to prepare for a rupture of the conferences, for if an understanding could be come to on the principles, the pints of detail would not present any difficulties. Several German journals have announced that the cabinet of Berlin had re cently addressed a note to the French Government, in which it is said to have repeated, in the previ sion of the war being renewed, the assurance of its strict neutrality. The Prussian , Correspondence of to-day officially declares that this account is en tirely devoid of foundation." SW EDEN. An article of the Svenska- Tidningen, a Stock holm journal, the editor of which is believed to be one of the King's aides-de-camp, has raised quite a commotion in the Swedish press and army. That journal declares that, for an offensive war, the Swedish army is in want of a proper military staff, of field equipages, a sufficient sanitary service, a medical staff, numerous artillery, commanders — in fact, of everything that is necessary, for waging war, with the exception of soldiers and arms. "It is not, however, impossible," says the writer, " that we may abandon our neutrality and join the Western Powers, if they guarantee us the pos session of Finland and the re- establishni of Poland." SPAIN. The Madrid journals of the 14th contain nothing of political importance. A great number of anonymous letters were, it seems, sent to deputies threatening them with death at the hands of " the children of the people," in the evdnt of their voting for the bill on the national guard. The Bishop of Osma had, after great hesitation, left for Cadiz, in obedience to the orders of the Govern ment ; on his departure a great number of persons of different classes of society assembled to pay him their respects. The I 'iario says that the persons who have requested the Government to he allowed to receive enlistments for a legion for the service of England are a deputy, and an en-deputy, both of whom are natives of Catalonia. The answer of the Government has, it says, not yet been given ; but when asked some time ago to allow a legion to be formed, it said that it could not do so, as it was itself in waut of volunteers for the army. ITALY. Colonel Cadogan, who has been appointed British Commissioner to the Sardinian head-quarters in the East, passed through Turin on the 15th, on his way to Constantinople. A letter from Rome, of the 7th, in the Milan Gazette, states that the dispute which arose last year between the Neapolitan Government and the Order of Jesuits is far from being settled ; and that, besides Father Curci, two Jesuits more have been compelled to leave the kingdom. The Civilta Catolica. the Jesuit paper which is published at Rome, is still excluded from the Two Sicilies ; and the letter adds, tha t tb, who l e Order would have been expelled by this time had it not been for the exertions of Cardinal Autonelli, who had written several letter 6 with his own hand to the Neapoli tan Government to mitigate its resolutions.

The for tifications of Dunamunde, which the latter will be obliged to destroy, in order to enter the small Gulf of Riga, have been considerably extended since last year. At this moment a multitude of labourers and Russian soldiers are employed in completing the new work of defence, and batteries have been erected all round the Gulf, at the extremity of which thecity of Riga is situate. Supposing the Allies to succeed in destroying the forti fications of Dunamunde, the ships of war, owing to their great draught of water, will experience considerable difficulty in entering the lake, where they will run the risk at every moment of sticking fast in the mud. If, as we have been assured, it is the intention of Admiral Dundas to take possession of Riga, and establish him self there, he must attack the town on the land side, and csnsequently bring out an army to land in the neighbourhood. Now, Russia has ordered the construc tion i❑ and near Riga of a powerful force to protect and defend that part of the empire, which, when all the corps belonging to it shall have arrived, towards the 15th of May, will amount to at least 120,000 men. The Commander-in-Chief of the Baltic army, General Siewers, has established his head-quarters at Mittau, at some distance in the interior of Courland, where he is constructing an extensive entrenched camp, defended by lunettes and detached forts. Two divisions of infantry, three batteries of flying artillery, and as many regiments of light cavalry, will be shortly assem bled there, and thence they can be rapidly marched to the point of the coast most immediately menaced by the fleet. The plan of campaign of the Russian army, on the shores of the Baltic, was drawn up and brought to St. Petersburg by Marshal Paskiewitch, when he last visited that capital, and the late Emperor Nicholas gave , it his entire approbation. Enormous quantities of beams of oak, deal, and other timber had. been sent to Mittau to be used in the works of defence of the town and en trenched camp. M. de Struve, the Russian Minister at Hamburg, has left on a mission to St. Petersburg, and will returu to his post in a few weeks." ttirb latittton4 SHARE MARKETS. (THIS _ DAY.) IVIALTON RACES.

The cotton market at Liverpool yesterday closed very firmly, and with a hardening tendency at the extreme prices of last week.

For sugar, both British Plantation and Foreign, full prices have been paid. Plantation Ceylon coffee has realised 1 per cent. advance, but Native has ruled dull. Tea, at public sale, went slowly, and rice has been dull. Not much has been done in spices, but they are not cheaper generally. The inquiry for rum has been limited. Saltpetre leas not at tracted much attention, and tallow has tended up wards. The colonial wool sales commence May 3.

The letter adds that the troops which were on the frontiers of Gali cia have been removed into the interior, on account of the typhus prevailing in that province. A letter from Smyrna of the sth states that on the day before Suleyman Pacha, the governor, assembled at his palace all the civil, military, and religious authorities, together with the drago mans of the Consulates, and caused to be read to them, in obedience to an Imperial firman, the new laws drawn up by the Council of the Tanzimat, for preventing, under pain of imprisonment and exile, all public functionaries of whasoever degree, from accepting bribes ; and for punishing persons who offer bribes. Suleyman Pacl►a afterwards delivered a brief address, calling on all the persons present, cot only to observe the laws, but to assist him by all means in their power, in endeavouring to extir pate bribery and corruption. A prayer for the Sultan was then offered up by the principal Mufti, and the assembly dispersed with cheers for his Majesty. RAILROAD BONDS. Illinois Central 7 per Cent.

This in substance gives the subscribers, for every 1001. which they lend the Government, one hundred 3 per Cent. Stock and an annuity of 14s. 6d. a-year for 30 years, equivalent to taking Consols at something under 88. The terms would probably have been higher if more definite intelligence had this morning been re ceived from Sebastopol or Vienna, and considering what political uncertainty prevails, and that 16 millions isa large amount, the price is as high as could be expected, at least under the present system of contracting. Whether an open subscription at the Bank of England would have enabled the Chancellor of the Exchequer to obtain more, it is difficult to say, seeing the tardiness of the English people to fall into any novel plan. The great banking houses have generally subscribed for large sums through Messrs. Rothschilds, a West-end firm being named as taking more than a million, and many of the City bankers as much. If there had been any difficulty in making up the total sum, the Bank of England was prepared to co operate. The scrip of the new loan (the " Omnium") has been dealt in this morning at 1i and 1i premium, and since at 1k to 1i premium. The Terminable Annuity sells at 161. to 16/. 10s. for 11. of annual interest continued during the thirty years. The relief experienced by the Loan being taken should have caused the English Stock Market to open more buoyantly, but the foreign news is still looked to with anxiety. Consols have been 90 to 901, and since down to 89i t-• The New Three per Cents. have been 89 to 89, and the Reduced at 88k and 88k. Bank Stock is steady at 2111. A good deal of money business has been done, and those who have allotments of the new loan must in some instances sell their old stock to meet the instalments. Exchequer-bills are 48. to 10s., and India Bonds 15s. premium. Foreigns Stocks are extremely dull, and without particular variation. Turkish Bonds have risen to 74-1 ; Portuguese, ex all over due coupons, are 381, being flatter ; Austrian Bonds are quoted to 65 ; Dutch 21 per Cents. are steady at 62/, and the 4 per Cents. at 911. The following are the nominal prices of foreign stocks :—Grenada Deferred Bonds, 6 1 to 61 ; Mexi can, 201 to 21 ; Peruvian, 69 to 71; ditto Three per Cents., 48 to 50 ; Portuguese Four per Cents., 11 to 43 ; Russian Five per Cents., 98 to 100; ditto Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 88 to 90 ; Spanish New Deferred, 18k to 18g ; ditto Three per Cents., 36k to 36i ; ditto Certificates, 4k to 5i ; ditto Passive, 31 to 4k. Business in Railway Shares is likewise very cir cumscribed. The current quotations show very little alteration from those •of yesterday. The Foreign lines are nominally firm. In the Banks, Mines, or Land Shares there is no material movement to notice. 1875... 68 70 ... 90 BRITISH FUNDS THIS DAY.—CL O SI NG - F I6 RICES (From the ODicial Lilt.)

Th e servants 50 and 78, of which Martin wrote bd. Piggott 18 and run out 40. The gentlemen, it will be seen, were victorious, with 8 runs to spare. After the match the players sat down to an excellent repast, provided by Martin at the White House. Swiss RAILWAYS.- - The engineers who are now oc cupied in the surveys for the new lines of railways which are to cross the Swiss Alps, have estimated the expenses of the different passages as follows :—Passage of the Splugen, 160,750,000 fr. ; St. Bernard, 185,275,000 fr. ; Luktnanier. 183,125,000 fr. ; St. Gothard, 160, 425,000 fr. ; Grimsell and Albrunn, 191,500,000 fr. and Grimsell and Simplon, 205,550,000 f. The St. Gothard will be crossed by the line from Lucerne to Locarno, which is the most difficult of all, and where avalanches are dreaded. The line of Rorschach will cross the Lukmanier to proceed to the Lago Maggiore and the Mediterranean ; The St. Bernard will be crossed by the line from Lausanne to Aoste by Vevey, which line is the most direct betwe en `Paris and Genova, THE-SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, APRIL 20, 1855.

THE LORD•LIEUTENANT'S LEVEE.—DUBLIN, Wednes day,_The levee at the Castle yesterday was extremely well attended. The Earl of Carlisle seems to have caught that popularity, of which it is believed he is overmuch desirous. When the levee terminated, his Excellency, accompanied by Lord Seaton, the Lord Chancellor, and the officers of the household, inspected several invalided soldiers, who arrived the previous night from the seat of war. Several questions were put to each by his Excel lency as to the day they were wounded, where removed to after, and how they were treated. AVALANCHE IN THE PYRENEES.—The inhabitants of the village of Carrejan, in the Pyrenees, on the Spanish side of the frontier, seeing four days ago that an avalanche of snow was about to fall, assembled in houses which ;,hey thought the least exposed to danger. Un fortunately, the snow came down precisely on those very house., leaving almost untouched several others which had been abandoned. By the fall, fourteen houses and forty-four barns were completely destroyed. Seventy two personssvvere buried in the ruins, and sixty of them were killed on the spot. The remaining 12, though got out alive, were so - dreadfully injured that some of them died almost immediately after, and the others we re con sidered in a desperat e state. The loss of cattle was very considerable. —Ga avant% THE FOLEY PLACE MURDER.—It has been ascertained that at the time of the murder of Mr. Joseph Latham by Baranelli, at Foley-place, the former was possessed of 8601. in lank of England notes. It is surmised that at the time he was murdered the above parcel was under his pillow, and that they were abstracted from there by some person during the confusion consequent on the horrible event. The following are the numbers and dates of the notes :-3001. note, No. 22955, Jan. 12, 1854 ; four 1001 . not es, Nos. 39511, 13, 14, and 15, all dated Feb. 10, 1854 • and a 501. note, No. 65164, dated Feb. 9, 1854. A 1.00/. No. 30512, and a note, No. 48069, dated June 5, ' 1854, have been paid into the Bank of England since the murder. A reward has been offered for the above notes, or for information as to the person who paid the notes into the Bank. PROGRESS OF EMIGRATION TO CANADA.—The report of Mr. Buchanan, the Government emigration officer at Quebec, has just been received in this country, and as it contains facts worthy of being generally known, we gladly gi to them publicity. It appears that the number of passengers who arrived in Quebec last year was 53,183, which, compared with 1853, shows an increase of 16,484, or about 45 per cent., the emigration having been larger than in any previous year since 1847. Of this number, 18,175 sailed from England (three -fourths of them from Liverpool), 16.168 from Ire land, 6,446 from Scotland, 5.709 from Norway, 5,688 from Germany, and 857 from New Brunswick ; but the emigration from Liverpool included 4,268 Irish, 727 Scotch, 4,163 Germans, 1,140 Norwegians and Swedes, and 58 Americans. Besides these, 295 Germans sailed from Hull, and 255 from Dublin. The average length of the voyage by Briti s h sa ilin g vessels was 47 days, by con tinental vessels 58 days, and by steamers fro-a Liverpool 16 days. Three vessels were lost, but no lives. Of the above number of emigrants, 3,195 were tradesmen and attsans, showing an increase of 1,637 on the previous year ; 5,632 were farmers and farm servants ; domestie servants, 117 ; cleiks, 159 ; and unskilled labourers, 10,488. A considerable number of the English and Scotch emigrants were persons possessed of means. A letter from the mayor of Port Hope is referred to as showing the satisfaction given by the female domestics sent ; and we are told that emi grants of this class, if of good cLaracter, cannot fail to be well provided for in Canada. As the facilities of the route— a water communication of 590 miles to Hamilton, and a railway of 465 miles from thence to Chicago, at a charge of 21. sterling—become better known, as well as the many advantages which Canada offers to the settler, there is likely to be an increase in the proportion of emigrants to that country seeking the St. Lawrence route in preference to that through the United States. The establishment of ocean steamers is regarded by Mr. Buchanan as of the first importance for securing the b toe t t a e el p r p re o a i s a s t of t h o e m advantagesi grant, wh o which av e C lately began Canada offers to men of capital. The large proportion of Irish emigrants last year is not a notable feature in these statistics ; the flow of emigration is now towards Canada rather than the United States, to which country the emigration last year shows a decline. This change of direction is partly- owing to the growing appreciation of the eligibility of Canada as a field of emigration, and par tly to the violence of the Know-Nothing party, whose intolerance of foreigners is repelling emigration from the United States, to which the Irish exodus has hitherto been chiefly directed. .00 .Iberdeen 8 knabg.

During the present week the receipt of English wheat has Leen on a very moderate scale. Fresh up to-day the supply was small, and the show of samples was limited. Although the demand was somawhat firmer than on Mon day the amount of business doing was limited at that day's currency. The imports of foreign wheat have been rather over 5,000 qrs. The sale for all descriptions ruled dull, but no change took place in prices. Floating cargoes were held at extrem e rates. We had a very dull sale for barley, and late rates were with difficulty supported. The supply was good. Malt moved off heavily at last week's currency. The oat trade was dull. Inferior oats were the turn lower. Beans, peas, and flour were dull, at previous quo tations. ARRIVALS THIS WEEK. Wheat. Barley. Malt. Oats. Flow.

The coroner , in Owning up, expressed his belief that the bridge ha d w he n constructed, but that was fifty years ago, when the construction of iron bridges was comparatively in its infancy.

Twelve of the jury out of fifteen were of o pinion that the accident was caused by accident, but one said he believed it was caused by cul pable negligence.
