The Russia, from New York, has brought £37,500. Mr. Goschen, M.P., has accepted an invitation to preside over the meeting convened for Wednes day nett, at the London Tavern, for the purpose of forming a council of foreign bondholders. A call of £5 falls due on Tuesday, the 10th inst., co the East Indian " L" Extension Railway shares, Making £l5 paid, the total amount payable on that date being £250,000. ,Vice-Chancellor Malins has made an order to continue the voluntary winding up of the 1)e -broogurh Tea Company (Limited), under the su pervision of the Court, and confirmed the appoint- Itlent of Mr. Smart and Mr. Wooddridge as liqui dators. An interim dividend of 4 per cent. for the past half-year has been declared by the Anglo-Romano Gas Company, upon Coupon No. 1 (new shares), payable on and after the 16th inst. The report of the Governor and Committee of the Hudson's Bay Company has been issued, an interim dividend of 6s. per share, payable in Janu ary, is recommended. At the first general meeting of shareholders of the Societe du Cable Transatlantique Francais on the Bth December next, resolutions will be sub ruitted authorising the issue of share warrants to bearer in respects of shares fully paid up. It is announced by the directors of the Darnburg and Witepsk Railway Company that !they have re ceived,, from St. Petersburg the sanction of the ."-icuperor to the reduction of the capital, and to the other changes in the constitution of the company unanimously approved of by the general meeting on the 15th July last. The directors of the Egyptian Commercial and Trading Loan Company (Limited) have issued a report showing the progress made in liquidating the company's affairs. It appears that the existing de ficiency on the paid-up capital is £316,732 14s. Among the assets unrealised is a claim on the Vice roy o f Egypt in respect of the Societe Agricole et Industrielle d'Egypte, of which the company is both a creditor and a shareholder, and the directors state there is every ground for expecting a satisfactory settlement. The balance-sheet gives no estimate of the actual value of the assets ; the shareholders Will learn little from it as regards their prospects of a further return of capital. An arrangement as been made by the directors of the East India Irrigation and Canal Company with the Secretary of State for India (subject to confirmation at a meeting of shareholders) whereby th e company's undertaking in Orissa is to be sur rendered to Government in consideration of a sum I n cash equal to the whole paid-up capital and 5 per cent. thereon (so that each shareholder will receive a clear £2l for the £2O paid by him upon e ach of his shares,—that is, premium per share), and also a further suns sufficient to cover compen etron to the managing body and offers, and thus exonerate the proprietary from all liability in that r eaPect . - - T he Portuguese financial agent has furnished an ex planation with regard to the internal Portuguese ri,stoek lately h ypot h ecate d' as security for advances. he Chevalier de Brito concludes his note by asserting that the supposition of a recent corres- Nudent of the possibility of the Portuguese Go- Zerurnent attempting to repudiate any obligation earing the signature of a responsible Minister o f the Crown, and accepted ,by his authorised agent a b road, is too absurd to be discussed. Ll teen years back the Portuguese Government re rdiated two-thirds of their engagements, and barely 12 months have elapsed since, being desirous of raising a loan in London, they made a solemn Contract, the loan having been obtained, remains u nfulfilled to this hour. :BRITISH FUNDS-CLOSING PRICES. .

Their Lordships gave judgment in the case argued before them on Saturday last. it was an appeal case from the Revising Barrister of M.anchester,whostruflk off the name of Mary Abbott off the list of persons who claimed to vote at the eusuing . election. The Court said it was clearly not the intention of the Legislature to extend the elective franchise so as to include women. Their lordships therefore ordered the appeal to be dismissed. .

The trade was vary quiet, and millers were indisposed to purchase any considerable quantity of wheat except at less money. No decline in prices, however, was quoted, only a retail business having been transacted at last Mo day's currency. A moderote supply of foreign wheat was on tho stands. _ _ There was a fair supply of barley on offer. The trade even for fine malting produce, was loss firm, and a decline of ls. per quarter took place in prices. Malt was in fair demand, at previous quotations. Oats, the supply of which was tolerably good, met a slow sale, at rather less money. Peas were a short supply, and last Monday's quotations were well supported. MEPROPOLITAN CATTLE. The number of beasts to-day is very small, and Ito couutee for by the non-arrival of foreign supply. There is consequently rather a brisk trade at fully our quota tijus, and in a few instances they exceeded. The supply of sheep is also shorter, but the advance is by no means large. There is very little advance in price, and only in choicest descriptions. Calves are dearer, b ing very scarce. Our foreign supply consists of 117 beasts, 28 calves, and 40 pigs. TALLOW.

It soon became apparent, however, that the crust of the ear was yielding, and allowing the greater partof of this great island, which has an area of no less than four thousand square miles to settle gradually towards the centre. . . The island has settled upon its foundations a few feet on the southern and western shores, a few inches only on the east and north ; but enough to cover the old tide-marks, and to overflow the vegetation of the more level beaches. . . The other phenomenon, which wo have experienced in common with the people of Hawaii, is a continued succession of volcanic waves, uncaused by any condition that we are as yet able to discover. The first of these waves was observed at Honolulu on the night of August 13, and noted at nearly the same moment two hundred miles to the south-east. . . The no ticeable feature of this and of the subsequent waves that have rolled in upon us from parts unknown was:that they were more powerful in proportion to their proximity, as mea sured by the nearness of our different islands to the Ame rican coast. . . The speed of tidal movements so vast as those which recent earthquakes have caused is almost incredible. The groat earthquake wave of April 20 was transmitted from Hawaii to the shores of Mexico, Cali fornia, and Oregon, a distance varying from three thou sand to five thousand miles, in five hours' time, as indi cated by the Government self-registering tide gauges at San Francisco and Astoria, which recorded its arrival on the evening of the same day in which it had desolated the coast of Puna and Kan." The military clothing establishment at Wool wich is to be closed for that purpose, and the work transferred to the establishment at Pimlico. The buildings will be given over to the lilitary Store Department, to be used for the storing of barrack and other stores. The closing of this establish ment causes several hundred persons (principally women) to be thrown out of employment in this neighbourhood, in addition to the vast number of workmen, computed at 1,500, discharged from the Arsenal and Dockyard establishments. The greater part of these men are first-class mechanics, who have tray elled some distance from their native homes to be engaged in the manufacture of warlike materials, &c. ; consequently, through want of wok they because chargeable upon the parish, the inhabitants of which are principally in Government service, and the poor rates are sensibly increased.

CORRESPONDENCE. _FROM PARIS, FROM OUR OWN CORREST'ONDENT.I PARIS, SUNDAY, November 8. We have not yet done with the famous article or letter in the Journal de St. Petersbourg. This remarkable produc tion, it will be remembered, was first thought to be an article under editorial responsibility, but the lull text of the composition shewed that it was a letter. The telegraphic summary seemed to indicate that this letter was of the most violent and inflammatory description. The full text, however, was of a much milder type; but the object of the writer was clearly put forth—he an nounced that, in case of an aggressive war on the part of France, Russia would side with Prussia. The feeling, not to say alarm, which was excited by France by this pro duction was not allayed by the information that it tee a letter. It was rightly concluded that such a letter would not be inserted in a Government organ unless its contents were fully approved of. For all purposes the letter might be regarded as official. This very logical presumption is strengthened by information from a very trustworthy source, to the effect that the letter was not allowed to appear before it was read and revised by a member of the Russian Government. The Avenir National and the Revel have got into trouble. An announcement has appeared in the columns of these two journals to the effect that a subscription will be opened for the erection of a monument to the memory of Osandin, who was shot on the 3rd of Decem ber, 1851—the night of the coup d'etat. He was killed at a barricade in the Faubourg St. Antoine, whilst Inciting the people to resistance. For publish ing this announcement of a subscription for a monument the Avenir National and the Revell are to De prosecuted in the persons of their editors and publishers. Such a prosecution will be without precedent. It is difficult to imagine under what law the tribunal will be able to condemn the two papers. Hitherto it had been taken for granted that opening a subscription was legal; but of course the lawyers of the Empire will find mans to sustain the charge. No press prosecution fails nowa days. The subscription has largely increased since the first announcement of the prosecution. Another remarkable trial will shortly be heard. The case has arisen out of that time-honoured penchant of French women for obtaining name and a fortune by marriage, and then availing themselves of the first pretext to cast off the restraints of married life. Some time ago the husband of Madame X— abandoned his social and conjugal life and entered a religious community. Having thus obtained her freedom ,Madame X— soon grew weary of this species of widowhood. She married, unlawfully, of course, a young and rich nobleman, and led a most extravagant life. Several children were born of this second union ; the Baron became a father, and shortly after wards a ruined man. He did not, however, choose to abandon his children ; he remembered that he had still a small inheritance, and took steps to preserve it for the education of his children. He then went abroad. Madame X— remained without resources, and resolved to insti tute a suit for separation from her husband, just as if she bad really been his wife. The suit went on in default of the husband's presence; so the separation was pronounced before the Baron was aware of it in time to appeal. Madame X—, in the meantime, availed herself of the separation decree, and obtained part of the little revenue of the property which was still left. This property was entailed, and it became a serious question whether it was possible to divide it in order that Madame X— might get her share. The Council of State confirmed the decision given in favour of the wife. The Baron now institutes proceedings against her for bigamy, and hopes thus to obtain a contrary judgment, on the ground that as Madame X— was married once she could not be married again, nor claim any benefits from the second contract. A paper announces that Rossini has recently composed a new piece of military music. The Italie hopes that this song of the great master may nut be the song of the swan. He is reported to be decidedly worse, It is said that Marshal MaeMahon, assailed on all sides on account of his administration in Algeria, wishes to retire from the governorship of the colony.

This morning it is moderate from N.E to E. Rain has fallen at most stations during the last forty-eight hours. The weather is fine in the N., but generally cloudy on other coasts, with mist in places. ELECTION INTELLIGENCE. BAIGHTOIL-It is now announced that Mr. Richard Peek will retire, in order that he may not be a party to dividing the Liberal interest. A second Conservative can• didate, however, is announced, in the person of Mr. W. 0. L Bashford. UREAT GRlMSBY.—Captain Tomline, a Conservative, offers himself in opposition to Mr. John Fildes, the Liberal sitting member, who seeks re-election. SOUTH HANTS.—The Rev. Herbert Smith has offered him self to this constituency in the Conservative interest WENLOCX.-Mr. William Evans, of London, yesterday morning published an address offering himself as a candidate for Wenlock, in opposition to General Forester. Mr. Evans is a member of the Reform Club, and is armed with a letter of recommendation from Mr. John Bright. BOSTON.-Mr. J. W. Malcolm, the Conservative sitting member, has issued a lithographed circular to the electors informing them that the state of Mrs. Malcolm's health neces sitates her immediate removal to a warmer climate, and that in consequence be cannot possibly bo present at the approach ing election. Mr. Malcolm's election is to be attended to by his brother. The Liberal condidates—Mr. Mason Jones and Mr. M. Staniland -have been prosecuttng their canvass with great energy. IPSWICH.—Mr. J. C. Cobbold will once more offer himself as a candidate in the Conservative interest for this borough. NORTHAMPTON.—Mr. Merewether, Recorder of Leicester, has consented to stand in the Conservative interest for Northampton. READlNG.—Aldermau Sir R. W. Carden is the Conserva tive candidate for this borough. SIIREWSBURY.—Mr. Tomline having taken no steps to secure his re-election, the Liberals are in communication with another candidato. TYNEMOUTIL—A new Conservative candidate has inti mated his intention of contesting this borough. Captain Harby Barber, RN., has put himself forward as a candidate for the suffriges of the electors in the interests of consti tutionalism. liAvros.—Tha correspondent of the Chester Courier writos that Mr. Odger will oppose Mr. Fitzwilliam, at Melton. The Courier treats the rumour as a hoax, and states that there has not been a contest there fur sixty years. BARNSTAPLE.—A Conservative candidate has come for ward in the person of Mr. Win. Abbott, who has issued an address. The Railway News understands that with ono trifling exception the whole of the claims arising out of the late accident on the London and North Western at Aber gale have been settled without any resort to litigation, The amount paid for compensation has been very much smaller than any of the bums which have been previously guessed at or rumoured. The engine of the mail train has been repaired and reported fit for work, and is, we believe, now running upon the line. The cost of its repair was not over £5OO, and the repair and reconstruction of the other in jured carriages and waggons has not exceeded £4,000. The entire cost of the accident is not one-•tenth of the sum, anti cipated. !Imre natiways. st 11:lsto1 an 3 Exeter ...... 100 st Caledonian ..... 100 s•. 21 Cornwall. ,1 Dablin & Belfast dune.— 100 - 77 ;9 at Dap„l'ertli,& Ab.J nue.— 100 70 ;2 2: East London—. 15 2) Da 10 t Crlita.:OW 6t S.

Those individuals who braved the elements to witness the racing at Liverpool during the past week deierve a cross of honour from the Jockey Club, more especially as the sport, viewed altogether, was scarcely worthy of the meeting, which the late Lord George Beatinck once took under his fostering wing. Moderate were the two year olds that ran, as must be admitted, when the principal Nurseries wore won by the colt by Kettledrum out of Im peratrice, the filly by Vengeance out of Becky Sharpe, and the filly by Leamington out of Hobe. It is singular that neither of the winners should have earned n name ; but after their successful spins, we trust the respective owners wlil study the convenience of the public by bestowing ap propriate names. The Flying Handicap was a failure considering the magnitude of the entries, so far as regards runners, as only five competitors ap: peered at the post ; and Belphegor, though he tried his best to "cut it" when the struggle came, won easily at the finish. Chapel Royal hal little difficulty in winning the Sefton Handicap, but in the Stewards' Plate he went down before Last Rose of Summer and Jeanie Deans, both of whom retain the fine speed which rendered them famous ss two year olds. In the Westmorland Cup Tornado carried Mr. Pryor's colours to the fore, and as Aetna, Mercury, and Evelina were behind her, the perfor mance of Tornado was a creditable one. The Steeplechases were failures, as only one-the Grand Sefzon -attracted a good field. Globule, although looking on the big side in con dition, was elected favourite, but he " tired to nothing" in the last half mile, and the Nun ran home an easy winner in front of Pensioner and Reporter. A remarkably clever mare is The Nun, and lucky is the individual who owns her superior. A new candidate for steeplechase honours -Black Prince, by Voltigeur, formerly the property of Lord Hastings-performed in this event, and he appears to have all the makings of a useful cross-country horse. The Shrewsbury November Meeting is the only fixture for the week, and racing will commence at the capital of Salopia on Monday, and conclude on Friday. Eight events are appointed for the opening day, four of which are com pleted, namely, the Carnival Nursery Handicap, the Cleve land Plate, the Wynnstay Welter Cup, and Autumn Steeple chase. _ln the Carnival Nursery (one mile) 49 two year olds have been handicapped, and the weights range from the "dark" Jeanne d'Arc, Bst 101 b, •to David, sst 101 b. We select Cocoa Nut, 7st 111 b; Padda, 7st 71b; Palmitin°, ist 61b ; April Morn, Est 111 b ; Arbaces, Est 71b ; and Alias, sst 111 b, as being most favourably weighted; and, considering that Cocoa Nut and Palmitin° have never yet known defeat, though running in really good company, we should have have little hesitation, providing both are fit and well, in standing on this pair to beat the field. For the Cleveland Plate (about five furlongs) there is a lengthy entry, and the highest impost-9st 61b has been awarded to Leonie. She, however, has little chance to beat Pericles, Bst lb; Seringapa tam, 7st 51b; Out and Outer, 7st 41b; Marshal Nay, ist 31b Pantrloon, 7et llb ; Problem, Est 121 b ; Mis tleoe, Gst 121 b; and Sirocco, Gst 121 b. This lot appear to have been closely handicapped ; but, looking at his easy victory in the Aintree Plate at Liverpool on Wednesday, we do not perceive what can beat Marshal Ney, though the better of Mr Hughes's pair-Seringapatam or Out and Outer-may do so. For the Wynnstay Welter Cup (about 6 furlongs) twenty-two horses have been engaged. Yea pasian, 12st 121 b, is the top weight, but he has no chance with Wolsey and Pirate Chief, the better of whom will hit the winning mark. The Autumn Steeplechase (3i miles) has sixteen subscriptions, but despite a penalty for win ning at Liverpool The Nun will be successful if ehe can beat the "turned loose" Sea King, who can gallop and fence also when in his best humour. The closed items in Wednesday's list are the Shrewsbury Cup, the Battlefield Handicap, the Forget° Stakes, and the County Members' Plate. The Shrewsbury Cup (It miles), considering the comparatively late date at which the forfeits were declared, has secured a goodly acceptance, as thirty-five horses,have been left in. Mandrake, Bst 121 b, is the highest weight accepting ; but good animal though he is, he has little chance to win. Romping Girl, 7st 31b; Clemence, Gst 71b; Aggravator, Est 51b; Buttercup, Gst llb ; and Redcap, fist, we take to be the pick of the "con tents;" and as the weights now stand, what con beat Romping Girl and Aggravator? The Battlefield Handi cap (about six furlongs) we assign to Mr. Hughes's repre sentative - Seringapatam or Herenuianus - albeit the chosen of this pair may be defeated by Dulcet, if she re tains a vestige of her early form. In the Foregato Stakes (4 furlongs) we prefer the elected of the Chaplin- Machell couple, Sir Oliver or Chanoinosse. The County Member's Plato (about 6 furlongs) has secured twenty no minations, but, although the horses have been very cleverly handicapped, we believe Ada or Harebell will be registered the winner. On Wednesday, in the Column Handicap (1* miles), thirty-nine candidates remain in. As the imposts now stand, we take Taraban Bst 31b, Orion 7st 61b, Fairwind 7st 41b, Indigestion 7st 111 b, President Lincoln Est 81b (inc 71b extra), Chivalry Est 31b, and Con tempt sst 91b, to be the "cream" of the horses left in. Chivalry, if in his best form, could barely lose, but he may nevertheless be defeated by Indigestion or Orion, who are the next best-looking pair. There are thirty-five no minations for the Monkmoor Handicap (4 furlongs) and the most noteworthy of the horses entered are Pericles, Bst 91b ; Out and Outer, 7st 41b ; Pantalooe, 7st 21b ; Last Rose of Summer, 7st 61b (including 10Ib extra); Luna, Gst 41b; and Patti, Gst. Of these we most esteem the chance of Pantaloon and Last Rose of Summer, both of who n be long to the speedy school. For the Tankerville N ursery Handicap (about 5 furlongs) fifty-six juveniles have been named ; but although Winifred, Mathilde, Rosecleer, La Rose, Pla,dda, Lady Dar, and Onyx have not been over weighted, we shall trust to Abstinence, Cocoa Nut, and Palmitin° to furnish the winner; and of the trio we pre fer Abstinence and Palmitin°, the latter of whom is a very smart filly over short courses. The Shobdon Cup (5 furlongs) has been well patronised, as eighteen good horses have been engaged therein, the principal of which aro The Hermit, Ironmaster, Channoinesse, Lord of the Valley, Leonia, Good Hope, Mercury, Vespasian, Last Rose of Summer, Abstinence, Charnwood, Vale Royal, and Cocoa Nut. The two year olds have often been formidable in this Cup, but this anniversary we shall plump for Leonie. Nine races aro down for decision on Thursday, but only the Newport Gold Cup, the Caldecot Nursery, and the Salopian Hurdle Handicap have closed. 21 horses have been engaged in the Newport Gold Cup (1 mile 1 fur.), amongst which aro See-Saw, Fidelia, Dryad, Leonie, Paul Jones, Mercury, Tabouret, Vauban, Knight of the Garter, Vespasian, St. Mungo, Hilda, Warrington, Vale Royal, and Cocoa Nut. See Saw, owing to his clever Cambridgeshire victory, will have a host of ad mirers, but the winner will be discovered in Knight of the Garter or Vespasian. The Caldecot Nursery (4 fur longs) has a lengthy array of names : but, as the majority of the horses handicapped have prior engagements, in the Carnival and Tankerville Nurseries, we can only point out the English Rose colt and Palmitine as being favour ably weighted. In the Salopian Hurdle Race (2-1 miles) Steamboat and Harrington appear to have none the worst of the weights. On Friday two Steeplechases, a Hurdle Race, and the Hawkstone Welter Cup have closed. A FRESH MAN. In accordance with instructions from the Horse Guards, the depot of the 100th Regiment has been placed under orders to proceed this week to Glas gow to join the service companies now on their pas sage home from Canada. The strength of the depot is five officers and about 190 non-commis sioned officers and men. On Saturday a detachment of 110 non-commis sioued officers and men of the 27th Enniskillens arrived at Chatham from Dover and proceeded to to the Isle of Grain, for duty at that station. A detachment of 51 men and one officer of the same regiment also arrived from Dover on Saturday for service at Upnor Castle, Chatham. The 27th alsogave a detachmentof 57 non-commis sioned officers and men, with one officer, for service at Tilbury Fort, where they arrived on Saturday. The head-quarters and service companies, under the command of Col. R. J. Baumgartner, C. 8., will march into Chatham garrison from Dover to morrow, and occupy quarters at St. Mary's case mated barracks, vacated by the troops attached to the 3d depot battalion. `THE IRISH POLITICAL PRISONERS.—A meeting was held on Thursday evening in the European Hotel, in Dublin, for tho purpose of appointing a deputation to wait upon the Lord Mayor, with a requisition to convene a public meeting to solicit the royal clemency towards the political prisoners. Resolutions were adopted in further o of the object, and the meeting pledged itself not to support any candidate who would not vote for the imme diate release of the prisoners. TILE MARQUIS OF HASTINGS.—We regret to an nounce that the Marquis of Hastings lies hopelessly ill at his town residence, Grosvenor-square. For a few months he has been declining in health, and was on the point of leaving England to winter in Egypt, when ho was seized with severe illness. On Saturday, his lordship, who had been suffering intensely, became unconscious, and con tinued in that state, with one brief interval, up to a late hour last night. FATAL ACCIDENT.-0a Wednesday forenoon, about 11 o'clock, Mr. T. Hanby, provision dealer, Hunslet, near Leeds, was driving a spring-cart along the banks of the Aire and Calder Navigation (a canal), near Thwaite mills, and not very far from his own house, when the horse yoked in the vehicle became restive, and plunged into the water. Besides Mr. Hanby, there were his son, a boy about eight years of age, and a youth named Cal verley in the vehicle. The latter contrived to scramble out of the water, but both Mr. Hanby and his son were drowned. DUNVILLE and Co., Belfast, are the largest holders of Whisky in the world.
