The din ner did not last long, as is customary with the Turks ; there was no speeches made, and imme diately after Said Pasha adjourned to another apartment to smoke his pipe. The fireworks were then rezumed, and a great display of an eruption of Mount Vesuvius and the burning of Pompeii took place. One remarkable feature in these fetes was the preponderance of European tastes and customs, though the Turks and Egyptians were very numer ous, and mixed freely with the Europeans. The amount of money expended by the Viceroy on this occasion was enormous, 100,0001. being considered a low estimate of the cost, as he was most lavish in very detail. A grand review of the Viceroy's army was ex pected, but, for some reason or other, it did not ake place. On the 20th Redschid Pasha, the Viceroy's prin cipal guest, took his departure for Constantinople in the Pasha's fine yacht Faid Gehaad, and he can hardly help feeling gratified with the attentions shown to him during his visit to Egypt ; and, per haps, Said Pasha will some day derive some benefit from it when Redschid returns to power at Con stantinople. On the 19th the Greek Consul, on the part of his Government, presented to the Pasba a Greek decoration, as an acknowledgment of the leniency shown by his Highness towards the Greek residents of Egypt at the time of the misunderstanding be tween Greece and Turkey last year, when all Greeks were ordered to be expelled from the Otto man dominions. THE AFRICAN MAILS. MONEY MARKET CITY, Two o'CLoox. The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday closed steadily, at the full last Friday's rates. The sales were 7,000 bales (500 for export and 2,000 on spe culation), comprising 6,000 American, at various prices ; GO Pernam and Maranham, at 6;d. to 7±d. ; 120 Bahia, at 6 3 d. to Gid. ; and 500 Surat, at 3T,,d. to 51d. per lb. The Share Market was very quiet, at previous prices. Advices from Galatz to the 17th inst. report a continued improvement in the grain market, with a large business in the export trade. Besides the export of wheat, there is a good demand for maize to be shipped for Marseilles, which has caused a rise in the price of that article. In the neighbour hood of Braila and Galatz there has been unusually heavy rains, which have damaged the crops a little, and delayed the harvest, thereby influencing the market towards a rise in prices. The quotations of wheat for exporta tion were as follows :—Galatz Ist quality, 445. 11d. to 48s. per quarter ; ditto 2d quality, 31s. to 40s. 2d. par quarter. Braila, Ist quality, 435. Bd. to 465. 3d. per ditto ; 2d quality, 28s. 3d., to 41s. Id. per ditto. Galatz Maize, 21s. per quarter, and Braila ditto 19s. 6d. to 19A. 11d. per ditto. Freights for England are in request at 103. Gd. per quarter for large vessels and lls, for small. The firmness in the prices of grain present little chance of a rise in freights. To ports in the Mediterranean there is a great reduction, with very little demand. The rates of Exchange on London, at the above date, ran nominal at 95 to 951. The commercial accounts from India state that the Money Market at Bombay had become much easier, and the banks had consequently reduced the rate of interest 2 per cent., the quotation being from 5 to 7 per cent. Public securities had de clined, owing to a rumour that a new 5 per cent. Loan would shortly be negotiated, which was not generally believed in well-informed quarters. The Import Markets continued dull ; but as great cau tion appeared to be exercised by shippers from this side with regard to the extent of their consign. meats, an early improvement was generally antici pated. From China we learn that a considerable business was being transacted in tea, and the first shipment of the new crop would soon be made. Although no important change has taken place in the aspect of the Money Market, a slight in creased demand has been experienced in Lombard street during the last two or three days. This, however, being distinctly traceable to the settle ments at the Stock Exchange, it is not likely to be continuous, nor is any alteration in the rates of discount considered likely at least for the present. It is not generally anticipated that the Bank of England Directors will come to a determination to-morrow to reduce the minimum, but the money market is now in such an uncertain state that it is quite impossible to form any accurate opinion with regard to the policy which they are likely to pur. sue. PLYMOUTH, MONDAY EVENING. The Niger, Capt. J. Parsons, arrived here this evening at 5 o'clock. The dates are :—Fernando Po, June 26 ; Lagos, 30 ; Accra, July 2 ; Cape Coast Castle, 4 ; Monrovia, 6 ; Sierra Leone, 12 ; Gambia, 15 ; Goree, 16 ; Teneriffe, 21 ; Madeira, 23. She brings mails, 1,750 ounces of gold dust, oil, wine, and 26 passengers, including the French Governor of Senegal, the Dutch Governor of Accra ; Captains Grant, Wylie, and Seddons ; Lieutenant Andrews, and Mr. Weston, of the Prize Court at Sierra Leone. H.M.S. Elk left Madeira on the 23d. The Prus sian squadron arrived at Madeira on the 23d with the Prince of Prussia. AND tT INTELLItTaI. C.) if .1.1! The Niger experienced much foul weather on the Coast ; the trade winds very strong. There was much suppressed uneasiness in the interior on the coast, but peace had not been openly interrupted, and trade was generally lively and improved. The whole of the passengers landed at Plymouth. The Niger arrived a few minutes too late for the mail train ; the consequence is that the delivery of the letters for this district must be delayed a day. The Niger is light in cargo through the inability of taking in cargo on the west coast. The conduct of the consul at Lagos was regarded with growing dislike. The cholera prevails at Madeira. Twenty a day are dying. At the Cape Verdes there was much suffering from want of food. H.M.S. Prometheus was spoken with between Lacos and Accra. There is rather a heavy market for Public Secu rities, and the transactions are generally of an in significant character, owing to the arrangement of the Foreign Stock and Railway Share accounts, which is now in progress. At th© present moment there seems no cause for a downward movement in prices, beyond the disinclination evinced by the public to operate with any degree of freedom, and the absence of many of the principal jobbers, who, if in town, might be expected to give support to the market. Consols fur transfer have been 924 g and 951 4. They are now, however, at about the former quotation. For account (August) they have receded from 95g I, the opening price to 951 The New 3 per Cents. are 96g g, the Re duced 951 96, and the 30 Years' Annuities (1885) 184. Exchequer Bills are 20s. to 235. premium, the Bonds 1004, and India Bonds 245. premium. Very few of the Foreign Securities have been dealt in to-day, the business done being almost ex clusively in relation to the settlement. Turkish 6 per Cents. are marked as low as 1031 f 4, and the 4 per Cents. 105 i. Spanish Threes rule firm at 444, and the New Deferred at, 234. Russian 44 per Cents, are 98.1 f, and Grenada New Active at 191. The following are the nominal prices of Foreign Stocks :—Grenada Deferred Bonds, 7i ; Mexi can, 221 3k; Peruvian, 81 3; ditto 3 per Cents., 57 9 ; Portuguese 4 per Cents., 49 51 ; Russian 5 per Cents., 111 13 ; ditto 4 per Cents., 98 100 ; Spanish 3 per Cents., 44i 5 ; ditto Deferred, 231 ; ditto Passive, 6 7. Railway Shares generally rule at lower quota tions, the settlement of the account having a weakening effect. The high rates exacted for " continuation" naturally depress the market, but the decline is not very great. The French as well as the Belgian lines are in very little demand, and the Colonial are not much in favour. Bengals are prem, Calcutta * I, and Ceylons 14 /. London and County Bank shares are 52. to 10s. lower. Mining and the Miscellaneous descriptions are inactive, and at nominal rates. BRITISH FUNDS THIS DAY.—CLOSING PRICES (Prom, the Otgcicsi Mat.)

Miss Leclercq will appear in two of her favotrito characters, one of them being Perdita in " The Winter's Tale." THE BUCKINGHAM ESTATES.—On Wednesday last the Stowe estates were brought to the hammer, for the second time, at the White Hart Hotel, Buckingham. Nineteen lots were put up, with a total annual rental of about 3,5001., and only two lots were sold—a farm near Aylesbury, for 5,7001., and a few houses and half an acre of land in Buckingham, for 6001. The Saukville estate was put in at 20,0001., and the reserved bidding was 24,0001. We heard that 22,0001. was offered by one purchaser and refused ; for several other lots there was no bidding, and the reserved biddings were not declared.—Oxford Journal. SERIOUS A CClDENT.—Yesterday morning at an early hour an accident by which several persons were seriously if not fatally injured occurred at the oil and colour ware house of Messrs. Jaquet's and Co., 25, James-street, Covent•garden. It appears that after the premises had been closed, Mr. Bennett, who manages the business, went, as was his custom, into the front shop to see that all was right. Several large cis erns filled with oil and turpentine were in the lower part of this room, and Mr. Bennett finding that a half gallon measure was filled with spirits of turpentine, which had leaked through the cock in one of the cisterns, proceeded to pour the con tents into the cistern again. By some means or other, however, the candle which he had with him ignited the turpentine in the measure, and the flames were speedily communicated to the surrounding inflam mable stores. Mr. Bennett was dreadfully burned about the head, face, and arms, as were also his wife and three children, who were in the back-parlour, separated from the shop by a thin wooden partition. Se veral engines were soon on the spot, and the fire was confined to the shop and parlour. The sufferers were removed to the Charing-cross Hospital. Mr. Jaquet was insured in the Phcenix and ,Sula offices. 100 100 100 20 26 100 10 5 100 25 25, SHARM MARKETS. 'THIS DAY.) RAILw AYS. r. )Paid, n.ll, WA fa.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. Mr. Commissioner Fonblanqua was the commissioner of the day, but the cases before the Court during the morning did not require his attendance. IN BE TRORGOOD.

Mr. Chidley appeared for the petition ing creditor, and assignees were chosen. No accounts have yet been filed. THE QUARTERLIES. The Quarterly Review. No. CXCVIL—An anecdotal paper upon "The Police and the Thieves," a contribution that Mr. Henry Mayhew might have written, or one which if he did not actually write he must infallibly revel in— is followed by an entertaining chapter upon the "Public Works and Improvements of Paris." The two most attractive out of the seven articles making up the contents of the new number of the Quarterly, being thus curiously illustrative of the internal polity and general condition of the capi tals of the two great Allies, France and England. The opening words of the contribution relating to Paris constitute the noblest, as it is also the most eminently well-deserved panegyric upon the princely splendour of the present ruler of the French, the imperial munificence of the Gallic Au gustus. "No sovereign ever reigned," says the Quarterly Reviewer, " who, in the same space of time, has rivalled Napoleon 111. in the combined magnificence, u tili ty, an d extent of his public works." As assuredly none ever has ! It is curi ous, howbeit, that in almost every one of these vast, useful, and magnificent public works the reigning Emperor is simply carrying out with faith ful minuteness of detail the wondrous designs pro jected or actually (some of them) commenced by the immortal founder of his dynasty. It was among the favourite projects of Napoleon the Great (with a view to the adornment of the me tropolis of his gigantic empire) to connect by means of a long gallery, corresponding with that of the picture gallery or Mush, the Louvre, and the Tuileries. This design Napoleon 111. is now rapidly accomplishing. And so likewise is it in regard to various other imperial enterprises. Tho original suggestions emanating from the genius of the Julius of the Bonapartes, being adopted and carried into effect by the Augustus of those modern Caesars. So splendid and immense were many of these cherished projects of the Great Napoleon, that it is amusing to observe how inadequate the royal pigmies succeeding the imperial Titan felt their Powers to he in merely attempting to carry them into execution. "To completea few of the Im perial designs , " says the Qua r t er ly, " a b sor b e d all the disposable funds (andthe reviewer might have added all theavailable energies) of the Restoration." Forty years have elapsed since the fall of the first Napoleon, and it is only now, thanks to the congenial enterprise and deter mination of the heir to his fortunes, Napoleon 111., that most of the glorious ideas of the later Charle magne in reference to the beautifying and general improvement of Paris are being literally and reso lutely realised. Foremost among these, as we have intimated, the design for the junction into one stupendous palatial edifice of the hitherto only partially connected structures of the Louvreand the Tuileries. The completion of an edifice, remarks the reviewer, which, when so completed, "will surpass in size and splendour every other of its kind "—whether we bear in mind the Vatican, Windsor Castle, or the Escurial. Numerous other public works and improvements now going for ward in Paris are afterwards specified by the con tributor in deserved terms of wonder and admira tion. Among these, the noble street extending through the very heart of Paris to the Place de la Bastille ! The other, which is to cross it at right a ngles—running northwards through the Rue de Grammont to Montmartre ! The new bridge (Pont de l'Alma) which is to commemorate the re cent war in the Crimea—having at each of its four corners a statue representing one or other of the soldiers of the four allies, France, England, Tur key, and Sardinia ! The subterranean railways which are to traverse Paris—connecting all the various lines together—conveying the provisions of the metropolis into the cellars of the different halles or markets—and enabling the Government, Whenever it might be necessary, to despatch bodies of troops instantly in perfect secrecy and in perfect safety to any part of the capital, however remote, when there might chance to be any outbreak of in surrection At this rate we may even learn in time of the more fantastic of the magnificent de signs of Napoleon the Great being realised by his Imperial successor—such designs we mean as that of a grand central fountain fer Paris, consisting of a Colossal Elephant. Remembering the insignifi cance of the late conflict with Russia, and bearing in mind the magnitude and splendour of the public works with which the reigning Emperor of France is adorning his glorious capital, we cannot but regret that the recently projected monument in his honour (a monument consisting of a column sur mounted by a statue) has not allusion to his pa cific rather than to his warlike achievements. It would be much more appropriate if it were so_ and as such would be much less likely to be cavilled at by posterity as an evidence merely of Public adulation. A review of " Grote's History of Greece," a comprehensive review of the entire work, now that the whole twelve volumes have beea.completed, constitutes a magnificent tribute of admiration applied by a most competent and appre ciative critic in the Quarterly to the chef d'oeuvres of the banker-annalist. An incomplete criticism upon the "Causes of the Civil War," as explained b y M. Guizot, follows immediately afterwards— a criticism less eulogistic in tone than respectfully and gracefully complimentary. Two companion Papers, and in their gist very congenial one with the other, appear in different parts of the present number of the Quarterly, the first a biographical essay relating to " Savonarola," the second, a political argument referring to " The Papal Government." While, as the final political bon bouche of the quarter, we have a masterly article upon " The Disputes with America." An article pledging the Conservatives, at its close, life and limb, soul and body, as it were , to support any Government, at any time, under any circum stances, in the event of England being— ,4 no mat ter the quarter or what the pretext"—threatened !

STEALING A GOLD WATCH. —Joseph, Cole, a young man with two black eyes, was placed at the bar before the Lord Mayor, charged with stealing a gold watch from the person of a youth named Henry Martin, No. 7, Botolph-lane. It appeared from the evidence of the prosecutor that yesterday afternoon, about half-past 2 o'clock, he was standing on Custom-house-quay witnessing a boat-race. There was a row of persons in front of him, and the prisoner was standing on his left-hand side. Prose cutor shortly after felt his left waistcoat-pocket touched, in which he bad his gold watch fastened to an Albert chain, and on looking down he saw the prisoner's band which was wrapped in a coloured pocket handkerchief, move rapidly from it. He caught hold of the prisoner, who replied, " What's the matter ? I have taken no thing." Prosecutor followed him and gave him into custody. The watch was not found on him, and the most extraordinary part of the case is, that the eye of the Albert chain which held the watch is not injured. It is supposed the ring of the watch must have been nipped with some instrument. Police-constable 581 deposed that on searching the prisoner his pocket handkerchief only was found on him. He gave a wrong address. Tile prosecutor said the handkerchief produced was similar to the one he saw in the prisoner's hand yester day afternoon. The prisoner was remanded. STEALING TWO 51. NOTES. —Mary &mmons, a female of ill fame, was charged with stealing two Si. Bank of England notes, and 10s. it silver, from the person of Mr. Zuliae Matthias, merchaht, Walbrook-buildings. Mr. Beard, from the office of Mr. Buchannan, pro secuted ; Mr. Lewis, jun., defended the prisoner. The prosecutor deposed that on the 17th July, about half-past 11 o'clock, when within a few yards of his own house, he was accosted by the prisoner and invited to go home with her. He declined, and told her he did not want' to have anything to say to her. He then vent on to his house, followed by the prisoner, and on open ing the door she pushed herself into the passage. Prosecutor remonstrated with her on her conduct, and he put his hand on her to turn her out. She resisted him, and in the struggle she gave a cough ; and imme diately she left the house ; and he saw a man in front of the door who spoke to the prisoner. On shutting the door, prosecutor missed two Si. Bank of England notes, two sovereigns, and 10 shillings in silver, from his trousers pocket. One of the notes produced from the Bank of England was identified by the prosecutor from the number. After hearing some further evidence, the prisoner was remanded. GUILDHALL. ATTEMPTED SUICIDE BY DROWNING. - Catherine Thompson was placed at the bar on remand, charged with attempting to destroy herself by drowning. The prisoner was seen between one and two o'clock on the morning of the 23d inst. to climb over the para pet of Blackfriars-bridge, and when searched she had only one farthing upon her. She previously asked one of the witnesses about the depth of - the water, and then said there was enough for her. On appearing before the magistrate she refused to give her address or to name any of her friends, and she was remanded for a week to give her an opportunity of changing her mind. She, however, has remained per fectly silent as to who her friends are, although she says she has a husband in Edinburgh, and a child in London with friends. Sir R. W. Carden said it was very evident she was a dangerous person to be trusted at large, and therefore he should not let her go until somebody came forward who would...take charge of her.. The prisoner was then remanded. BOW-STREET. SAVAGE ASSAULT. —A determined-looking fellow, named Bryan, was this morning placod before Mr. Henry, charged with violently assaulting his wife. From the evidence of the wife, a respectably attired young woman, it appeared that for some months past, owing to the savage disposition of the prisoner, she had been compelled to separate from him and support herself. This morning, about half-past one, as she was standing at the entrance of her residence in Charles-street, Drury lane, the prisoner came up to her and asked her to give him the price of a pint of beer. She refused to do so, and he immediately seized her by the hair of her head, dashed her to the ground, and then struck her a tre- mendous blow at the side of the face, from which the blood flowed copiously. She screamed for assistance, and shortly after a police-constable came up and took him to the station-house. Police constable 158 F said he was on duty this morn- ing in Drury-lane, and at the hour above stated he heard violent screaming in Charles-street. He immediately proceeded to the spot, and found the complainant bleed ing profusely from a severe wound on the temple, but the prisoner wade off. He pursued him and took him into custody. The prisoner was an idle fellow, but his wife was a sober, well-conducted woman. On being asked by the magistrate what he had to say in answer to the charge he replied he was drunk, and did not know what he was doing. If he was allowed to go away this time he would not repeat the offence. Mr. Henry—l cannot pass over such a brutal out rage as this. I shall send you to prison for three months. Committed accordingly. AN Inisu Row.— Catherine Murphy, Catherine Sulli van, Catherine Kasey, and Mary Ann Donoway, four Irish girls of the lowest description, were placed at the bar, charged with creating a disturbance in Charles street, Drury-lane, at a quarter to three this morning. From the evidence of the police-constable it appeared that at the early hour of half past three this morning a "row" occurred in one of the streets in the neighbour hood of Drury-lane. He proceeded to the spot, and there found a large number of Irish girls assembled round Murphy and Sullivan, who were having a regular "set to." He endeavoured to part them, but that was impossible. He obtained the assistance of another con stable, and by this means he was enabica G. quult Gus al‘turbance any lodge the four girls in the station-house. The women Murphy and Sullivan he knew to be bad characters, indeed Sullivan had been but a few days ont of gaol; the other two he did not know. Police•constable 154 said he heard the screaming and blows at the further end of Brownlow-street. He assisted to bring the prisoners to the station•house. They were all bad characters. In answer to the charge, Murphy said Sullivan was in the habit of annoying her by calling, her a bad cha racter, and having done so this morning, and an oppor tuity offering, she had given her a good hiding. Sullivan (displaying a handful of her hair)—Yes, yer Worship, and she pulled all this hair off my head. The other two girls said they were merely looking on. Mr. Henry said he was determined to put a stop to this kind of disturbance ; he should, therefore, send Murphy and Sullivan to prison for 21 days, and as it did not appear that the other two girls had taken part in the affray he would discharge them this time, but if they were before him again on a similar charge he would punish them severely. DUST IN RiILIIOAD CAM—no New Ycrk Ycrk Central Railway has nearly completed arrangements intended to obviate the inconvenience occasioned by the dust, which will, in spite of closed doors and windows, manage to in trude itself upon travellers inside. The plan is simply to box in the running gear down to within two or three inches of the rail, and to extend tarpaulins over the open space between each car. Advantage is also gained in deadening the sound of the wheels. ISLINGTON.—The representative vestry of the parish of St. Mary, Islington, at their last meeting made the following rates for the current half-year :—For the relief of the poor, 10d. in the pound ; churchwardens' rate, Ad. ; lighting, 3d. ; sewers, ld., and a general rate of 4d. in the pound. POST-OFFICE ROBBERIES.—For some time past letters containing money and other articles of value have been frequently lost at the Lewes post-office, and last week the authorities took means to endeavour to disco ver th e guilty party, the result of which was that on Monday Joseph Palmer, post-office clerk, was charged before the magistrates with stealing a letter containing half a sove. reign and a florin. He was committed for trial at the assizes. He has been a clerk in the post-office three years and a half, and always borne a good character. :4‘• birb Ebitton SOW OFFICE, Seven o'clock.

(Prom a Supplement to the Gazette of Tuesday Evening.) WAR DEPARTMENT, JULY 30. "Cord Panmure has received a despatch, of which the following is a copy, addressed to his lordship by General Sir Wm. Codrington, K.C.B. Constantinople, July 16. My Lord,—Finding that all arrangements would be completed for evacuating the Crimea on the 12th inst., I wrote the previous day to the officer in command of the Russian troops, a Colonel of the Gendarmerie, at Kamiesh, thz..t I should be ready to hand over the Dock yard of Sebastopol and the port of Balaklava on that day. Her Majesty's ship Algiers had entered the port of Balaklava on the 7th inst. ; the 56th Regiment embarked in that ship on the evening of the 11th ; the only troops remaining were one wing of the 50th Regiment, which formed the guard of the town that night. The following day, the 12th, at one p.m., all the re maining stores and establishments having been embarked, a company of the 50th was posted out of the town to re ceive the Russian troops, and on their approach marched in with the Russian Guard, composed of about 50 mounted Cossacks and a similar number of infantry Cos sacks. The usual form of salutes took place, the Russians placed sentries where they wished, and the four com panies of the 50th marched on board the Algiers. I em barked with my personal staff at the same time. Although the weather was unfavourable we were en abled to quit the harbour of Balaklava that evening. Admiral Sir H. Stewart and Admiral Freemantle were at anchor outside the harbour ; they weighed, and we all sailed for this place, where I arrived to-day.—l have, &c., W. J. CODRINGTON, General Commanding. The Lord Panmure, &c. NOTTINGITAM ELECTION. NOTTINGHAM, TUESDAY. A split has taken place amongst the Liberals, and Mr. Chas. Paget, of Ruddington Grange (who had previously declined to come forward as a candidate), has been induced to contest the borough. A large meeting of the Liberals was held last night, at which Mr. Mills, who is a candidate on Liberal principles, was present, and stated his views, politically and socially. It is upon the Sunday question that these gentlemen are opposed, Mr. Paget's views being more in accordance with those of Sir J. Walmsley than his opponent's. The contest will, most likely, be a severe one. It is highly probable that Mr. Ernest Jones (who yester terday issued an address to the electors, stating his deter mination to come forward) will withdraw from the coa test. The nomination is fixed for to-morrow }(Wednesday). Mr. Paget has issued his address. THE UNIT ltD STATES, CANADIAN, AND AUSTRALIAN MAILSr. LIVERPOOL, TUESDAY.

MARKET NEWS.--{This Kiay ) CORN EXCHANGE. There was rather a large portion of Monklay's unsold supply of English wheat in to-day's market, but the fresh arrivals were very moderate. The demand for all kinds was in a depressed state, at almost nominal currencies. To have forced sales ls. to 2s. per quarter less money must have been submitted to. Foreign wheat, the imports of which con Untie larger, was dull in the extreme, and nearly all kind a were lower to purchase. The few samples of barley and malt in the market were mostly cleared off at very full prices. We had a dull inquiry for oats at barely lelonday's de cline in value. Beans, peas, and flour were very dull, but. not cheaper. ♦RRIVALS TIIIS WEER. Wheat. Barley. English .. 1,540 20 Irish .... Foreign I I 12,550 I 1,040 Malt. 1,210 Oa ts.

But it is scarcely necessary to refer to estimates to show the improbability of gold being sent by the overland route. It is a well-known fact that when the Peninsular and Oriental Company's steamers were running on that line, they offered to convey gold by the overland route at a rate of freight so low as to leave the barest possible remuneration, after paying the cost of transit across Egypt, and to include therein the insurance. They were, how ever, unable to induce any shipper to send gold that way. The foregoing estimate is, however, based on a more favourable state of things for the overland route than recent circumstances warrant. The voyage of the Royal Charter. made from Plymouth to Melbourne in 59 days, is already pro ducing a revolution in the public mind as to the best route and means of communication with Aus tralia. The Royal Charter is a splendid iron clipper ship of 3,000 tons, with a small proportion of auxi liary steam power, and a screw propeller, fitted to draw through a trunk out of the water when not required. The result of the return voyage of this ship is looked for with much interest, 'and if it in any way correspond to the outward run, and, as is currently reported, a line of similar ships is to be established, all hopes of a gold traffic by the "overland route," or even of a passengek traffic, except to a very limited extent, may be given up. And with respect even to the postal service, the Government and the Australian colonists may per haps soon discover that they might have been much more cheaply and as efficiently served by the direct sea route as by that postal arrangement which has been or is about to be effected at so heavy a cost.—Daily News. THE MUTINY AND Al URDER ON BOARD THE BRITISH SHIP GLOBE IN THE BLACK SEA-. Yesterday the following carrespondence was received at Lloyd's, from the Foreign-office, relating to a deape rate mutiny and murder on board an English ship in th Black Sea, and the successful capture of the perpetra tors : "Foreign-office, July 23, 1856. " Sir,—l am directed by i.he Earl of Clarendon to trans►nit to you, for the information of the chairman and the committee of Lloyd's, copies of despatches, and of its enclosures, from Viscount Stratford de Radcliffe, re lative to the capture of three of the mutineers from the English barque Globa.—l am, sir, your most obedient and humble servant, " 11.

"My L4rd,—l have much pleasure in informing your Excellency that three of the men concerned in the murder of the man on board the Globe, have, by the exertions of Commander IVl`Kiflop, of the Recruit, and Hassan Effendi, A.D.C. to his highness the Captain Pacha, been captured near Killa, and brought back prisoners. A fourth was heard of; and policemen put on his track, so there is little doubt that he will/also be taken. There is some uncertainty as to the fifth. The men who have been taken state that he was killed by the English before the boat left the barque. This story is certainly false ; and it must therefore have been concocted, either to favour the escape of the man, or to conceal his having been killed by themselves in a quarrel.

DUBLIN, July 20.—The man, Stephen Byrnes, of the North Tipperary Light Infantry Militia,. was put on his trial yesterday, at the Nenagh Assizes, charged with the murder of Denis Curley, a private of the 41st Reginient, on the Bth of July instant. The prisoner, who is a very young man, and of mild appearance, was dressed in the militia uniform. ' The Attorney-General, with Messrs. George, Q.C., Lynch, Q.C., Rollestone, Q C., O'Hara, and Waller prosecuted ; and Messrs. Johnston and Hemphill were assigned as counsel to the prisoner. General Sir W. Chatterton, commanding the Limerick district, occupied a seat on the bench where Judge Moore presided. The court was crowded, and the deepest interest was excited by the proceedings throughout the town. The Attorney-General having stated the facts of the case, witnesses were examined who proved that while the soldiers were' drawn up in the Summer Hill Bar racks, Byrnes, who stood outside the gate with other militiamen, called out—" I'll have a crack at the medal man" (Curley), and fired at deceased through the wick e t. gate, which was partly open at the time. Curley stood near the gate, having been told off as a sentry. Mr. Johnston addressed the jury on behalf of the pri soner, and dwelt in strong terms upon the conduct of the Government towards the militia. After. all their services they had been cast off like an old shoe when no longer wanted. Having exonerated the officers of the regiment from all blame, he submitted that thera wan not sufficient proof of Byrnes having fired the shot, and, finally, he drged that even if the jury were to convict, the excitement that day, and the circumstances, would reduce the offence to manslaughter. The jury having retired for an hour, returned with a verdict of Guilty. The foreman, Mr. Sadlier, then read a letter, in which the jury begged leave to recommend the prisoner tp mercy, on the ground that the militia were at the time in a state of great excitement, being of opinion, whetbe well or ill grounded, that the regiment were not re-. ceiving their just rights. John Bannon, another of the Tipperary Militia; was then put on his trial, charged in the first and second, counts with firing at Lieut.-Col. Hart' and Lieutenant Young, with intent to murder them, and in the third and fourth counts with firing at 200 of the Queen's troops, with the intent to murder some of them. The prisoner was acquitted on the two former counts, and found guilty on the two latter. Sentence was notpronounced on either of the planers. AUSTRALIAN GOLD AND THE OVER LAND ROUTE. Australia exports gold to the value of about 12 millions sterling to Europe —nearly all of it to England in the first instance. - A notion seems to be pretty generally prevalent that with the establish ment of steam communication with these colonies via Egypt, commonly called the " Overland Route," a large proportion of this gold, which has hitherto been transmitted exclusively by the sea route, would be sent via Egypt, and yield a large return in freight to any company undertaking that line of communication. Attention to Ist few simple facts will show how thoroughly illusory is such an expectation. In order to draw a traffic from an old channel to a new one, it is obviously necessary to show that the new one presents tothe merchant superior advantages to the old. Now, lot us examine facts to'iscertain this. As a base for the calculation, take t.l - mr current freight charged by the clipper ships trading with Australia, which is 3d. per ounce, or equal to Gs. per cent., or 1001. worth of gold. Now, the cost and duty of transporting gold across Egypt amounts to Bs. per cent., or 2s. more than the whole freight by the sea route from Australia to England. To obtain the transmission of gold by the overland route at such a rate of freight as to leave even the smallest profit to the steam-ship, some corresponding ad vantage to the merchant or shipper must be ob tained ; and what advantage will ho obtain ! The rate of insurance is rather against the " overland " conveyance. For besides the sea risk, there is the risk of landing at Suez, of transit across Egypt, and re-shipping at Alexandria. The only advan tage, therefore, which the gold-shipper can derive must be limited to the interest which he may save, or gain, by an acceleration of the transit and an earlier realisation thereby of his investment. In order to estimate this, a comparison must be made between the average time occupied by the clipper sailing-ships in making their voyages from Austra lia, and that which will be made by steamers and via Egypt, calculating both transits to and by de livery of the gold at the Bank of England. This may be put down at 90 days for the sailing-ships and sea route, and 60 days for the steamers and " overland" route, and that consequently a month's interest will be gained by sending the gold by the "overland" route. _ _ :GN. 108 a 34i g 60} 50 25 1 1 20 100 x , Pm pm d 'Ake
