French journalists are attributing (and to a certain extent Justly) the present financial difficul ties to a deficient harvest. France, they say, will have to purchase foreign wheat to the extent of measures, which can £10,000,000 or £12,0 00,000 sterling. The conse quent drain of bullion falls heavily on the Bank of France, who very p roperly have raised the rate of discount to 6 per cent., and would have advanced it to 7' had not the Govern ment i nterfered to stop the drain.

This, there could be little question, was owing to the favourable position in which the Deeside stood, both in regard to its original cost of construction—X9,ll7 per mile—and the prudent system of management adopted by the directors. The traffic of the line had been very encouraging in its progress year by year. In 1854, when the traffic commenced, the receipts amounted to about £B,OOO. They were now, however, £15,000, having nearly doubled in amount in the seven years. The main line having thus done so well, he (the chair man) did,not think the shareholders should despair of seeing a dividend yet from the extension to Aboyne, though the past year's traffic, as mentioned in the report, had not realised the expectations of the directors as to this portion of the undertaking. After commenting on various items of income, the Chairman expressed his gratification at the fact that the principle on which the company started, of adopting cheap fares, had proved very beneficial to the shareholders. Without cheap fares he was satisfied they never could have produced the revenue from passengers they had done. As regarded the capital account, the directors had advanced £20,000 for works and plant which were absolutely neces sary to accommodate the Deeside proper as well as the extension traffic. This advance it was proposed should be mot by the issue of preference shares, as done by other railway companies. The report was then unanimously adopted, and a dividend at the rate of 6 per cent. per annum was declared. subjects from the sanguinary assaults of drunken Cossacks. - Ilis Royal Highness the Prince of Wales is expected to arrive at 2 p.m. A parliament will thereupon be held in the New Parlia ment Chamber, and at its close the library will be formally opened. An Address will be presented to his Royal High n, as in the library. At a p.m., after the library shall have been opened, there will be a short choral service in the temple Church. At 4 there will be a dejeuner in the hail, and in the pavi lion in Fountain-court. Barristers will be placed in the hall according to seniority, as far as practicable. Barristers who may not get places in the hall, and students, will be placed in the pavilion according to seniority, as far as practicable. At six a conversazione will take place in the new library. Admission by tickets only. Each member will receive a ticket to admit him to the dejeuner, indicating- his place at table, and whether it be in the hall or in the pavilion. This ticket will likewise be avail able for the conversazione. Tickets will likewise be given to as many members as the spare will allow, to admit to the interior of the library on the occasion of the opening' ; or to the service in the church. There will be accommodation for a limited number of ladies in the library, in the church, and in the gallery of the hall. Ladies' admission tickets will be issued. There will likewise be refreshments for ladies in the Parliament Chamber, and in the library in the evening. Tickets will be ready for distribution on Tuesday, 29th October. The treasury office will be closed on the 31st October dur ing the entire day. PUBLICATIONS. RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. THE NEW BANKRUPTCY ACT.

EAST INDIAN. The clergy have determined to protect the churches of all denominations from further desecra tion by closing them. The people are now saying their prayers before the church doors. Count Lambert is, I hear, heartily ashamed of the conse quences of his own act, and is negotiating with the clergy for the re-opening of the various places of worship. Hitherto his negotiations have not been successful. Some of our contemporaries appear to be rather frightened by the long list of bankrupts in the last two London Gazettes. They have ascribed its magnitude to the unsatisfactory state of the retail trade of the country, which is in many parts doubtless unfavourably affected by the general slackness of business and diminution of trade. But this length of Ilia recent Gazettes is not due to this cause, but to one far less lamentable. Aurst and Blackett, Publishers, 13, Great Marlborough• street.

The Council of State has also expressed its sense of the lawless conduct of the Government, by sus pending its sessions until the present state of things is discontinued. Its action, never very effective, is of course, completely paralysed, by the present con dition of the country. As for the municipal coun cils, the elections have been completed, and the patriots have gained a complete triumph. It is supposed that this was the cause of the sudden re solve taken by the Government to proclaim the state of siege; but it is difficult to understand how it could have been so blind as not to anticipate that none but known patriots would be elected. It is now proved, at any rate, that the promise of liberal institutions so pompously paraded by the Government was meant for Europa, not for Poland; for directly the Poles show the slightest symptom of a wish to take advantage of them, their efforts are baulked and neutralised by Russian interference. Russia already has these very "institutions," which have been so much talked about ; and everyone knows what is their effect on the Government. But in Russia the people have been so well schooled to obedience to their Emperor that their " institutions" give no trouble ; whereas the Poles would put them to their proper use, e., make them a means of representing their wants and grievances to the Emperor: This, of course, it is the object of the camarilla which sur rounds the person of the sovereign to prevent. Mild measures have been tried, and have failed. The experiment of a system of severity will be still less successful. The recent act, since the legal operation of which the two last Gazettes only have been issued, tends to augment the list of bankrupts in no less than four ways. COL.

First—lt gives creditors under a bankruptcy that entire power and full control of their own affairs which before they only enjoyed under a private ar rangement. Bankruptcy, moreover, is not now irrevocable. It may be superseded at the pleasure of the creditors, and the estate wound up privately, if they think fit at anymoment. This great advan tage will necessarily swell the list of bankrupts. Secondly—lt deprives private arrangements of that secrecy which before led not unfrequently to their being preferred to a bankruptcy. All arrange ments which are to be binding on non-signing cre ditors must now be advertised in the London Gazette. Hod s in In COSTUME. Benchers to wear forensic levee costume.

It is true that the acts for which a non-trader can be made a bankrupt are not so numerous as those for which a trader can be so made ; yet still a non-trader can now be made a bankrupt, which he could not before. Fourthly—The diminished cost of bankruptcy proceedings will, it is to be hoped, bring within the scope of the law many little estates which before were wholly beneath its reach. These four causes are quite sufficient to account for the augmented number of bankrupts, without any aid from the imagination that the trade of the country has upon a sudden become unsound.— Economist.

Daring the past half-year au additional length of 87 miles has been opened for traffic from Cawnpore to Etawah, and there are therefore now in working order 248 miles in Bengal and 210 miles in the North- West Provinces. The question of when it may be desirable to commence construction of the Jubbul pore line remains in abeyance. On the Bengal di vision, 248 miles in length, the permanent way and works have been maintained in efficient working order during the half-year at a cost of 7d. per train mile. The working expenses have been 45.69 per cent., or 7.75 per cent. less than in the pre ceding half-year. The number of passengers car ried during the half-year ended Dec. 31 last was 756,894, and during the past half-year, ending June 30, 893,553, showing an increase of 136,659. Of the 893,553 passengers, 8,867 were first-class, 34,324 second-class, and 850,362 third-class passengers. The tonnage in goods and minerals, exclusive of parcels, carriages, and live stock, for the half-year ending Jane 30 last, has been 178,783 tons, against 135,779 tons in the preceding half-year. The amount of railway materials, included in the traffic returns of the past half-year, is about 17 per cent. The gross traffic receipts for the half-year ending June 30 have been £175,842, against £121,869 in the preceding half-year. The net traffic receipts from the opening of the line to June 30 have been £607,626. The locomotives and other rolling stock are in efficient condition. On the line in the North- West Provinces, 123 miles in length, the permanent way and works have been maintained in efficient order at a cost of 81d. per train mile. The work ing expenses have been 40.97 per cent., showing a reduction of 8.57 per cent. on the preceding half year. The number of passengers carried during the half-year ending Dec. 31 last was 104.160, and in the past half-year, ending June 30, 122,651, of which 1,612 were first-class, and 2,384 second-class passengers. The tonnage in goods and minerals, exclusive of parcels, carriages, and live stock for the half-year ending June 30 last, has been 62,436 tons, giving an increase of 19,397 tons over the preceding half•year ; part of this large increase, however, is due to the large quantities of grain carried during the late famine. The amount of permanent way materials, included in the traffic returns of the past half-year, is about 25 per cent. The gross traffic receipts for the half-year ending the 30th of June last have been £63,685, showing an increase of £16,424 over the preceding. half year. The net receipts since the opening of the line for public traffic have been £115,464, The locomotives and other rolling stock are in excellent condition. The general result of the half-year's working on the two divisions of the line, as com pared with the preceding half-year, shows an in crease in the traffic of 155,150 passengers and 62,401 tons of goods and minerals, and of £53,059 in the net earnings, while there has been a decrease of 7.92 per cent. in the working expenses. In their last report the directors showed that the sum re quired to complete the line to Delhi, beyond the £899,500 which they were then engaged in raising, would be X 2,900,000. They have raised the £899,500 in question, and £1,067,000 of the £2,900,000 ; so that for the main line they will require but £1,833,000 between the present time and the end of 1863. The board will take such measures to pro vide this sum as may appear best calculated to pro mote the interests of the company. Whether they look to the progress in construction, to the increased earnings of the line, to the decrease in the working expenses, or to the success which has attended their financial operations during the past half-year, the board think the shareholders will have reason to be well satisfied with the six months' operations. The revenue for the half-year ending the 30th of June on the Bengal division, 248 miles in length, amounted to £175,842, the expenses to £80,340, and the net balance to £95,502. The revenue for the same half-year on the North-West Province divi sion amounted, on 123 miles, to £63,685, the ex penses to £26,092, or 40.97 per cent., and the net receipts to £37,593. BUFFALO AND LAKE HURON. The report of the directors states that the amount of share capital sanctioned by the act of incorpora tion is £1,640,000, and of this amount the total issued under the authority of the votes of the proprietors is £1,430,000, of which £940,040 has been collected, leaving £270 of calls in arrear, £16,040 preference shares in the hands of the com pany, £12,400 unsubscribed on chattel mortgage loan, and £461,250, being the difference between the nominal and actual value of the issue in April, 1859, of £2O lOs shares of£s2s 6d each. The chief expenditure on capital account has been in the construction of the road for connecting the line with the waters of Lake Huron, and for the necessary adjuncts of an elevator, platforms, and freight sheds and sidings at Goderich, together with the wharfage and other improvements at the har bour. The line to the harbour was not open for traffic until the 17th of June, and then in an incom plete state; and on portions of the new road there are still some works to be done under the contract which have been postponed to next spring. The directors are strongly urged to extend the piers at the harbour mouth as a further protection against accident to vessels entering, and against the chan nel being narrowed, or a bar re-formed. The cost of this work may be roughly estimated at 10,000 dols, for an extension of 200 feet in length. A committee of the Provincial Legislature have re ported strongly in favour of Goderich as a harbour of refuge. The revenue account for the half-year ending the 31st of July shows that £36,216 had been received against £28,286 for the corresponding half of 1860; and the working expenses amounted to £30,571, against £26,990, showing an increase in the receipts of £7,930, in the expenses of £3,581, and in the net receipts of £4,349, as compured with the corresponding half of 1860. The net receipts for the past half-year amounted to £5,645, against £1,297. The average weekly traffic amounts to £1,393, against £l,OBB, and per mile per week to £8 135., against £6 15s. The per tentage of work ing expenses on gross receipts was 84, against 95 at the corresponding period of 1860. The increase of traffic arises mainly from local freight and from connexion with the trade at Goderich. Nothing has been decided in reference to the postal subsidy, Tgeneral subject in has s and the direct ors w i ll not fail to press the import ancehe of his manager every par w ed ay no in ex t exertion n p u o n w d e e r r . most discouraging • circumstances, and the board have only to renew their high sense of his energetic and intelligent conduct of the affairs of the com pany. The staff both here and abroad have fulfilled their arduous duties with great zeal and efficiency. The board have determined, in the present circum stances of the company, that it is desirable a com mittee of shareholders should confer with them on the best means of supplying the required funds, and for this purpose they will be prepared to name five gentlemen whom they will ask the proprietors to appoint, while they earnestly invite the cordial co-operation of all in giving effect to such measures as may hereafter be proposed. The capital account showed that £954,073 had be en ex pended out of share capital. The bond capital, in deferred bonds, amounts t o eluding active and £666,667. DEESIDE. The annual meeting of this company was held'on Thursday, at Aberdeen. Mr. J. Duncan, the chair man, presided. The report having been read, The CHAIRMAN held that the best proof of the prosperity of the Dee§ide line lay in the fact that NORTH EASTERN. It appears that the directors of this company in tend to apply to Parliament next session for powers to make a line through the Team Valley to join the Bishop Auckland branch, and thence, by a loop line running a little to the south of the city of Durham, to connect the main line from London and the south with Gateshead and Newcastle by this route. It is also intended to renew the application to Parlia ment for powers to make a line from the Blaydon station of the Newcastle and Carlisle Railway to Consett, in the Derwent Valley.

The works on the extension of the Spalding and Holbeach line between Holbeach and Long Sutton are now nearly completed, and it is stated that traffic will be commenced to some extent in the course of next month. From Long Sutton the line is to be continued to Lynn by a further extension, for which Parliamentary powers were granted last session. POLAND. A letter from Warsaw, dated Oct, 19, says—The state of siege which I announced to you in my last letter has had the very reverse of the effect the government intended it to produce. Of course you have already heard of horrors perpetrated by the soldiery on the 15th, the anniversary of the death of Kosciuzko. There is something marvellous in the persistence with which the Poles carry out all their plans, in utter disregard of any orders or threats to the contrary. One would have thought that the proclamation which accompanied Count Lambert's address, threatening the most severe mea sures on the part of the military in case of any demonstration, religious or otherwise, must have deterred the people from joining in what was, after all, only a commemoration, the celebration or non celebration of which could not have much effect upon the national cause, either one way or the other. But the opportunity of showing their con tempt and detestation of the government was too good a one to be missed. Here was one of thosa religious festivals which they consi dered they had a clear right to celebrate, and which are forbidden by the authorities under pe nalties of absurd severity, which they knew it was impossible to enforce—another instance of the ex traordinary folly which has marked all the acts of the government in this country. At any sacrifice, then, the order was to be disobeyed, and the im potency of Russian rule in Poland demonstrated ; 1 for there can be no doubt that the object of all these demonstrations, which people abroad consider so childish and useless, is to worry the Russians out of the country. The Poles are far-sighted enough to perceive all the difficulties which would attend an armed intervention of the Western Powers for the restoration of Poland, even if their present disinclination to interfere in any way could be over come; and on the other hand, they are not ignorant of the feeling which is entertained by all sensible Russians who desire the good of their country, that to retain Poland at its present cost, viz., the main tenance of a large army and a cloud of policemen and spies, and the bad name which Russian policy is acquiring in Europe by its Polish administration, is a most ruinous speculation. The advantages of this situation are too great not to be retained at all risks. It is evidently the interest of Poland, always supposing —which, indeed, is clear—that she desires her independence, to force Russia to keep up its large expenditure on her account, and to take advan tage of every slip of the government to show its incapacity. With the present agitation that is silently but surely spreading over Russia, there is a hope that before long wiser counsels will prevail at St. Petersburg, and Russians will cast off an acquisition which has brought them nothing but pecuniary loss and indelible disgrace. Meanwhile, no concession, or mark of reconciliation on the part of the Poles is allowed that may lead Russia to alter this opinion, or make Poland less intolerable to her. This view will explain much that may have seemed inconsistent in the conduct of the Poles during the late events. Nor is their strategy un known to thngovernment, which has over and over again been informed by the most distinguished men in the country that nothing will -satisfy the Poles but the departure once for all of the Russians from the kingdom. Under these circumstances, the blind folly of the Government in proclaiming a state of siege, without the slightest provocation, except what they had quietly permlitted for the last six months, is almost incredible. The letting loose of a savage and drunken military on the people was, if possible, a greater piefe of madness still. The scenes in the churches;particularly the cathedral, were brutal and disgusting. The half starved congregation, which had been blocked in for 20 hours, was attacked with savage fury by the soldiery, who had broken into the church; men and women fell by hundreds, wounded with mus kets, pikes, and sticks; everywhere large blood stains marked the pavement; priests were struck down at the altar, and ladies were seized by ruffian soldiers, thrown on a bench and whipped, stripped of their valuables and dresses, and dragged half naked into the street. Three thousand men were arrested. In the streets of the town the butchery was equally fierce and indiscriminate. Bands of Cossacks, infuriated with drink, galloped about, and struck and plundered every one they met. Many houses were broken into and robbed by the soldiery. It is currently reported that several foreign consuls were beaten a n d ot h erwise injured ; and I learn that an Englishman , a Mr. George Mitchell, was so severely wounded that he is still keeping his bed. It is to be hoped that our Go vernment will at least protect thQ lives of Br4ieh THE PRINCE: OP WALES AND THE MIDDLE TEMPLE. (Frwn the Observer.) The arrangements to be made for the reception of the Prince of Wales on his being called to the bar and elected a bencher of the Middle Temple, are being pushed forward with great activity. The election of his Royal Highness to these honourable positions in the legal profession will take place on Thursday next, and on the occasion of his visit the Prince will, at the request of his brother benchers, proceed to open the library which has just been built in the Temple Gardens. The Prince of Wales is expected to arrive at two o'clock. A guard of honour, formed of those members of the Inns of Court Volunteers who belong to the Middle Temple, will be on duty for the occasion, and his Royal Highness will be received at the east entrance of the hall by the benchers and treasurer. The Prince will then be conducted to the new Parliament Chamber. This is a noble apartment which has just been completed, and occupies a portion of the site on which the old library stood. Here the benchers will assemble, and the Prince will be called to the bar in the usual manner. He will then be elected a bencher of the Middle Temple, a dig nity similar to that conferred by the Law Society of Lincoln's-inn on his father, the Prince Consort. At the conclusion of this ceremony the Prince will be conducted along a covered avenue through Garden-court to the new library. The whole distance, about a hundred yards, will be lined with ladies, barristers, and such of their friends as may receive tickets to view the procession. The Prince, with the benchers in their antique robes, will pass down the handsome flight of stone steps leading from Fountain-court to Garden -court, and here the gardens, with their magnificent show of chrysanthemums, will be seen to advantage. A covered awning will be provided for the whole distance. The library, which is to be opened by the Prince, is a fine Gothic hall, in the upper por tion of the new building overlooking the Thames. The part of the building below the library forms chambers, which are occupied by members of the legal profession. The building externally is 117 feet long, 55 feet wide, and 110 feet high. At the south end is an oriel, and at the north-east angle an octangular tower, containing the stairs leading to the library. The building is approached by a terrace in continuation of Garden-court, and at the entrance is an iron gate ornamented with brazen stars. The effigies in stone of two knights of the Temple surmount the doorway, and the arms of the Temple—the lamb and flag—are prominently dis played on the stonework and on the painted win dows. The library itself is 96 feet long, 42 feet wide, and 70 feet high, with open traceried roof, like that of Westminster-hall. Besides the oriel there are windows at the sides and at the northern end, which are filled with stained glass, that at the north containing the shields of those who were benchers at the time of its erection. A fine portrait of Robert Ashley, the founder, hangs against the north wall. There are some other cham bers within the walls of the edifice, but the greater portion of the space is occupied by this really noble apartment. The building is of Bath stone, and its cost, including the bookcases, was about £13,000. It is in every essential respect a credit to the Middle Temple. It was originally intended to have built it in Fountain-court, but a strong feeling of opposition was shown against the contemplated re moval of the old fountain, with which were con nected so many pleasant and historical associations of the successors of the Templars, and its present site was ultimately fixed upon. The first stone of the building was laid in 1858, by Sir Fortunatus llwarris. The library now contains about 20,000 volumes, the whole of which, with very trifling exceptions, are on law and jurisprudence. It is one of the most complete libraries of the kind in the country. After the opening of the library the Prince will retrace his steps, and proceed from the Parlia ment Chamber to the Temple Church, where a short choral service will be performed. He will then be conducted to the Great Hall, where a dejeuner will be provided. This hall is one of the most vener able buildings in the metropolis. It is:Gothic in its style, and its dark oak roof and richly-carved panels have a most imposing effect. There is a tradition, we are sorry to say an unfounded one, that the hall was constructed of the timber of ships which formed part of the Armada. The hall was built 13 years before the date of Spanish expedition. On the lower part of the hall are painted the shields of all the benchers of the Middle Temple from the earliest date of its establishment, and on the upper part are arranged the arms of all those of the benchers who have worn the ermine as judges. The latest addition to this muster-roll of honourable and worthy men is that of Lord Westbury, the present Lord High Chan cellor ; and it is a curious fact that not only the Lord Chancellor, but the Lord Chief Justice of England, the Lord Chief Justice of the Common Pleas, and the Lord Chief Baron----all the chiefs of the common law courts, and the great head of the profession, have their places of honour on the walls of the famous hall of the Middle Temple. Here, sur rounded by all these memorials of grave and learned judges, and of men whose eloquence has adorned the bar and the senate, the young prince will be sumptuously entertained. Those students and banisters whom the hall will not accommodate will be duly provided for in a handsome marquee, which covers the whole area of Fountain-court. A cold collation will be provided in this part for about 500 persons. Messrs. Ring and Rymer will sup ply the banquet. The hall, as well as the marquee, will be lighted up. The fountain which has been provided with new basins and ornaments, will be decorated with evergreens. There will be a covered walk round the fountain, and on the sides a large collection of flowering plants and exotics. 4t night this will be lighted up by the li mo lig, which will illuminate a large portion of the gar dens, the new library, and the adjoining buildings. It was proposed to bring the proceedings to a close by a ball, at which the benchers were to dance, as of old, round the fire; but this was-proposal was overruled, and there is to be a conversazione in the evening instead. The benchers are required to attend in forensic levee costume, the barristers in forensic costume over evening dress ; th e students in evening dress and gowns. Ladies will not be required to appear in other than morning dress ; and gentlemen at the conversazione will appear in evening dress. The guard of honour will parade in the uniform of their corps. The barristers NN ill be placed in the hall, as far as practicable, in the order of their seniority. Everything which is calculated to give eclat to the proceedings, and to do honour to the admissiou of the illustrious member of the Middle Temple, has been provided. DARING HIGHWAY ROBBERY WITH rioLEATE. NOTTINGHAM, SATURDAY. Last night a daring highway robbery, accom panied with great violence, was committed near the village of Trowell, a lonely spot, about six miles from Nottingham. On the evening of the robbery a farmer, named Thomas Smith, of Little Hallam, went to the village of Basford, three miles from Nottingham, for the purpose of buying a horse. On his way home he called at a public-house at Trowell, and stayed there about an hour and a-half, and while in the taproom he mentioned the fact that he had been to buy a horse, but had not completed the purchase. Two men of suspicious appearance were in the com pany, and left the house a short time before Mr. ' Smith. The landlady mentioned her suspicions to the farmer that the men meditated robbing him, and when Smith left her house she gave him a thick stick to protect himself if requisite. In less than an hour the farmer returned to the public house, his face and clothes being covered with blood. His head was frightfully bruised, as also was his face. Other parts of his body were much injured, but ho had sufficient strength to say that the two men whom the landlady had suspected had met him on the road ; one of them had knocked him down with a rail and otherwise ill-treated him, and had stolen his pocketbook, containing £25. A surgeon was immediately sent fur, and information of the occurrence was given to the police. Two men, named Henry Gordon and Samuel Thompson, who were identified as being the per sons drinking at the publichouse, were apprehended the next morning in a field near the place of rob. bery by Mr. Superintendent Palethorpe and a body of police. As soon as the men perceived the officers they attempted to make their escape, but after a long pursuit were captured. This morning they were taken before Lord Belper and the county bench of magistrates at Notting ham, but, owing to the precarious state of the pro secutor, who was unable to attend to give evidence, they were remanded for a week. The prisoners appear about 25 years of age, and follow no regular employment. WILLS AND BEQUESTS. ... It. The will of the Dowager Lady Musgrave—relici of - Sir Philip Musgrave, Bart., of Eden Hall, near Pen rith, Cumberland, M.P. for Carlisle—was proved in the London Court, on the 10th inst., by Major General Wiliian Fludyer, the brother, sole executor. The personalty was sworn under £16,000. Lady Musgrave was the granddaughter of the Earl of Westmoreland. She married Sir Philip Musgrave, Bart., whom she survived 34 years, and had issue one daughter,who died in 1844,unmarried. The baronetcy consequently passed to the next male heir of her late husband. Her ladyship possessing property in her own right, has disposed of it by her will to Sir Geo. Musgrave, Bart. (her brother-in-law), of Eden Hall, with the exception of some small bequests to other members of her family. Her ladyship usually resided at Leamington Priors, Warwickshire, but died in Albemarle-street, on the 21st of August last, aged 66. _ _ The will of Sir Francis Palgrave, K.H., Deputy Keeper of the Public Records, was prove& in the London Court on the 12th inst. ; it bears date the 16th of November, 1860, the executors appointed being Thomas Brightwen, Esq., Alfred H. Browne, Esq., and the Rev. S. C. Brown. The personalty was sworn under £4,000. Sir F. Palgrave, whose original name was Cohen, assumed that of Palgrave soon after his marriage, it being the designation of a relative of his wife. Sir F. Palgrave filled the office of Deputy Keeper of the Public Records for many years, was formerly one of the Muni cipal Corporation Commissioners, and had the honour of knighthood conferred upon him in 1832, He was called to the bar in 1827, but appears never to have practised. He was a man possessing great literary taste, and has produced several works, some of them being unfinished at the period of his decease. The will, which is very brief, contains merely some family directions. His MSS. and correspondence he leaves to his sons, either to keep or to destroy, as they may deem requisite, requesting them to select from his library any books they may prefer, as well as some personal ornaments to be retained by them as mementoes. There are two legacies —one of £lOO to a cousin of the testator, and one of £5O to a personal friend. Sir F. Palgrave directs that the residue is to be invested as an annuity for his sister Rosa, whom he mentions in terms of much affection, and with the singular peculiarity of his " desolate sister." Sir F. Pal grave attained the age of 73, died a widower, and has left a family of four children, all sone. The will of Captain Edward John Lees, 86th Regiment of Foot, of Cheltenham, Gloucester, but who died at Torquay, Devon, on the 12th of July last, was proved in London on the 15th instant by his relict, Mrs. Wilhelmina Felicite Lees, and George Lees, Esq., the testator's father, joint exe cutor s, and bears date the 29th of June last. This gallant officer has bequeathed his property, consist ing both of realty and personalty, to his relict, for her sole use and benefit, appointing his father and his relict guardians of his (the testator's) infant son, George Frederic Lees. The will is exceedingly brief.—lllustrated News. THE EASTERN FISHERIES.—The herring fishery there can now bo little doubt, will prove satisfactory this year on the eastern coast, a circumstance of all the more value after the discouraging results of last season, while the liberal supplies of fish obtained cannot but be highly accept able to the middle and lower classes. On one day alone last week 700 lasts were landed at Yarmouth, or, to speak more plainly, the immense number of 9,240,000 fish. One boat alone brought in 15 lasts, or 198,000 fish. At Lowes toft, also, highly encouraging results have been obtained, and a cargo of herrings has been shipped direct for Dieppe, the first export of the kind under the provisions of the new commercial treaty. Notwithstanding the abundant supplies of fish, prices, both at Yarmouth and Lowestoft. have been pretty well sustained. [ADVERTISEMENT.]—HoIIoway's Pills.— Saved from Destruction.—The most serious diseases which can afflict mankind first manifest themselves IT trifling signs. 'Tis wisdom to meet and subjugate the 'first disordered action. Holloway's Pills will effect this without risk, pain,:or other drawback. These well known and universally appreciated Pills relieve the constitution from all difficulties, expel all impediments to the natural action of any organ, and pre vent undue " wear and tear" to the, system. By their purifying power over the blood tho wh o le body is refreshed, and each individual function properly and healthily stimu lated.

This is the gist of the whole matter. The answer is— Because their financial position in such that they fear being called upon to pay off their Treasury Bills, the interest on which they have already been obliged to raise 1 pet cent. in a fortnight, in order to keep them afloat. The Government are also afraid to let the Bank of France take those legiti mate measures which they otherwise would adopt, viz., sell Securities, and raise the rate of discount further—because prices on the Bourse would be in fluenced, and the resources upon which the Govern ment have hitherto rested to cover their ceaseless deficits would be cut off. Palliatives must, further, be resorted to lest the host of small fundholders whom Louis Napoleon has created and favoured with issues of stock at low prices should take alarm. The Government, from their hand-to-mouth system, have always been dependent on the Bourse to a peril ous degree, and they are now coddling it up in all sorts of soothing ways, with the sole object of puttin g off the evil day. The expedients adopted by the Bank of France are various, and we have probably not yet seen the last of them. A credit with English houses is opened to the extent of £2,000,000 sterling : and the Bank of France, in order to stop th e d ra i n o f gold to England, sell the bills on _London to per sons indebted to England at an exchange which renders it more profitable to them to buy the bills and send them to London than to send gold. This is the transaction in its simplest form. A similar operation has, we believe, been. adopted to a smaller amount with Hamburg: It is further rumoured that an arrangement is attempted to be negotiated with Russia, whereby it is proposed that the Rus sian Government shall come to an understanding with the Russian merchants who have sold corn to France, and pay them for it by an issue of notes of the State Bank, or in Government Fotir per Cent. Treasury Bills. It is then proposed that France shall repay the Russian Government in Russian coin, which the French Mint would supply. Thus, assuming that France was indebted to Russia for corn to the extent of £4,000,000 sterling, the pro cess of coining the silver would occupy the space of a year, and France for that period would virtually have a credit. Such is one of the schemes spoken of. One diffi culty is, that tha Russian Government are hardly in a position to carry it out. When we consider the state of the Russian exchanges, it is evident that the issue of some millions sterling of paper money in Russia would have a very bad effect. Again, the French capitalists hold a very large amount of the New Italian Loan. The palliative adopted in this case is an application to the Italian Government to partially postpone the instalments, and this has been acceded to. If the French Government really wish to avert a crisis, there is but one measure that will completely and perma nently obviate it, and that is a great reduction of their enormous expenditure, which is slowly but surely sapping the foundations of the prosperity of France, and paving the way for a crash. Ultimately, we harre little doubt, the present dif ficulties will be patched up by a State loan ; but palliatives and expedients will not last for ever, and it is only by a disarmament that the evil can be permanently stayed and real confidence inspired. TEE THEATRES OF PARIS. Of the seven theatres which are to be swept away by the Boulevard du Prince Eugene, the Revue ' Municipals gives the following historical particu lars: 1. The Petit Lazzari was in 1789-92 the Theatre des Varietes Amusantes. This soon fell into the hands of an Italian, named Lazzari, who' played the part of harlequin with such grace and suppleness that he became quite a favourite, and the public, consigning the real name of the theatre to oblivion, thenceforward baptised it Lazzari. This theatre was burnt down in 1798, and poor Lazzari, in a fit of despair at this accident, committed suicide. Under the Restoration a theatre for puppets only was erected on the Boulevard du Temple, and called the Petit Lazzari, to commemorate the harlequin of former days. This theatre in 1830 exchanged its wooden actors for others of flesh and bone. 2. The Delassemens Comiques stands on the site of the Theatre des Associes, which flourished in 1768 under a manager of the name of Beauvisage, who was succeeded by the clever harlequin Salle, when the theatre assumed the name of Theatre Patriotique du Sieur Salle. In 1795 it was called Theatre Sans Pretention ; it was closed in 1807 by an Imperial decree, and transformed into the Cafe d'Apollon ; but in 1815 Madame Saqui obtained leave to per form rope dancing and pantomimes there, which in 1830 were exchanged for vaudevilles. The old house was pulled down in 1841, and rebuilt in three months, when it assumed its present name. 3. The Funambules was formerly exclusively devoted to rope dancing, as its name implies; but since 1830 vaudevilles and pantomimes have been performed there. The concern was sold for 400,000 f. a short time ago. 4. The Gaite was also in 1759 a theatre for rope dancing, under the celebrated Nicolet, who attracted all Paris to his show by the drollery of his performances, enhanced by farces of question able morality. The directors of the Opera became so jealous of his success that they obtained an order in 1769 restricting Nicolet's performances to mere pantomimes But this restriction did not last long. In 1772 Nicolet performed before the Court at Choisy, on which occasion the Countess Dubarry was so well amused that she caused the title of by M . Alexandre Dames and others, o n Imperial. TheatrestTi Theatre des Grands Danseurs de Roi to be conferred upon this establishment. Nicolet set his brother managers the first example of generosity by giving the profits of a night's performance to the su ff erers from the fire which in 1777 destroyed all the booths of the Foire St. Laurent. His theatre assumed its present title in 1792 ; three years later it was called Theatre d'Emulation, but Nicolet's widow restored the name of La Gaite in 1798. The celebrated fairy piece called the " Pied de Mouton " was performed here in 1806. The theatre was rebuilt in 1808, burnt down in 1835, and rebuilt in the same year at a cost of 443,000 1 . b. The Theatre des Folies Dramatiques has no history of interest to boast of ; it was built in 1831 by M. Allanx, the inventor of the Neorama. 6: The Theatre Imp er i a l ( anc i en Cique) was founded in 1780, by A s tl e y, f or eques trian performances ; it was tak en i n 1794 b y Fran coni, who in 1802 transfer re d it t o th e o ld conven t of Capucines. But five y ears l a t er th e R ue d e l a ?aix was run through th e grounds , and Franconi had to migrate, first to th e R ue onthabor, and then once more to the Boulevard du Temple, where he erected the Cirque Olympique. This was burnt down in 1826, and rebuilt in the following year. Before 1848 it changed its name to that of Thea tre g du Temple, nan 8 heedto Lyrique ; and the concern will be transferredtotihtee Boulevard n pneleweebthe Theatreig west L of the buil d i ngs under theatre opposite, as our reade rs know, is desti ned to re name yri que , which Port a u t. wh Change bui he l t a s His torique, and opened with the fi rst representation of present i t as name 4 o f 6, Theatr e under t he of the drama called "La Reine Margot," which had cons id er able success. lnn BOAIW OF TRADE RETURNS. thoeahrdeaoaf ofT Trade returns onmanu f f a o c r t u the ree . past The falling were un T de issued h r eß extraordinary o n reduction Saturday , i a n n d u r continue exports, chiefly off, compared with the corresponding period of last year, has been £2,426,284, or nearly 18 per cent., of which nearly 121 per cent. is in connexion with cottons.
