The market closed at the following prices : Ambergate, Not., & East. Junction 6 4 7 Caledonians Chester and Holyhead 5 24 Eastern Counties East Lancashire . . Edinburgh & Glasgow . Great Northern Great Westerns 81 - 116 17 117 18 71 1 2 In the LONDON STOCK MARKET to-day Consols were very inactive, without the least fluctuation. Prices for the next account, 93 1-16 to 3-16. The Funds closed at the following prices : Consols Money Account f I Exchequer Bills 1 4pm Bank Stock Three per Cents 1 4p Next Account The following appeared in our later editions of yesterday : The funds remain without any movement of impor tance beyond that occasioned by the variations of the weather. The Queen's speech had no effect whatever in the Stock Exchange. The markets generally were firmer in the morning than at the close, the afternoon being cloudy. The demand for money at the Bank was considerable and larger than for some days past, but arose partly from causes of exceptionable character. The position of the general market continues much the same as before reported. Money does not circulate with its usual rapidity, and commercial bills are scrutinised narrowly.—Daily News. Although the weather has again become unfavourable the English funds have been steady at yesterday's improvement, and remained without fluctuation. Loans on stock continued to be offered at 2 per cent. The Queen's speech was received with satisfaction. The demand for discount to-day has been less pressing, and the best short dated paper could be negotiated at a fraction under 4 per cent. at the Bank ; however, rather a large business was done. In foreign stocks the prin cipal feature is a further rise in Spanish passive. Mexican and Buenos Ayres have improved, especially the latter. In the foreign exchanges this afternoon the rates on Amsterdam and Hamburg were slightly lower. - There were no bullion transactions at the Bank to-day. The railway market has been rather flat, owing to the less favourable state of the weather. Most of the lead ing stocks show a decline averaging about 4 per cent. — Times.

Sugar : The market was quiet, and 4,200 boxes Havannah offered by auction were all bought in. Coffee : There was a fair demand, and the public sales went at full prices.

In the Liverpool Share Market there was a brighter day, and the more favourable appearance of the weather gave a better tone to-day, thus a slight advance in prices was established, and at the close the tendency was of a hardening cha racter.

The running at Stockton yesterday confirmed my predictions in one race only, Sir William (my selected champion for the Great Northern St. Leger), pulling through. My selection for the Zetland Biennial did not appear at the post ; and Cramond, who certainly ought ,o have won the Biiiingham Grange Stakes, was defeated by both Gladiolus and Rosamond. This appears somewhat strange, as Cramond beat Vanquisher, High Treason, and Butterfly, over the Fame distance, the previous day ; and I would advise your readers to take no notice of it, as the latter lot are considered infinitely superior to anything engaged in yesterday's race. The Steward's Plate, the Stockton Cup, and the Middles borough Plate are the only races of interest for to-day. The Steward's Plate should be a victory for Doefoot, who has had a very successful career during the season. The Middlesborough Plate (one mile and a-half) has just a score of acceptances, the Middiehara division being represented by no fewer than six horses. Moorhen and Feodorowna have been vary unfortunate of late, but I think they will be more at home over the mile and a-half than a longer journey ; and should this pair represent the stable, I expect to see one of them carrying off the stake. The contest for the Gold Cup I expect to be severe one, there being several good animals engaged in it. Should Sabreur go for it, he ought to win ; but that being doubtful, I must give the preference to Butterfly or Rap. SATELLITE_ RACING FIXTURES FOR 1860.

A Naples letter of the 22nd, which has arrived in Paris-through Genoa,- gives some fuller details of the progress of the Garibaldians, and of the general insur rection which their presence in the Neapolitan territory has occasioned. It announces that the Basilicata, th e Capitanate, Calento, Campo Basso, and Avellino, situa tea scarcely twenty leagues from the capital, were all in insurrection. Six conipanies of the garrison of Reggi o have passed over to 'the Garibaldians; four others of the 6th Regiment, who 'had been directed on Potenza, had revolted, when on the march, to the cry o f " Garibaldi for ever!" and on arriving at Auletta had refused to proceed any further. The Minister of War at Naples then determined to send Some com panies of the Royal Guard to defend Potenza, and some of the foreign troops to occupy Salerno, but the measures were too late, as the latter town was on the point of insurrection, as well as Bari and other places. We learn from our telegraphic intelligence that the Royal Troops have suffered another defeat in Calabria ; that the inhabitants of the Basilicata, who seem to have revolted to a man, have furnished a considerable armed contingent, which is advancing on Salerno—a town not -more than twenty-seven miles from Naples. At Salerno, it is intended that these levies shall join Garibaldi, who has no doubt ere this landed in the vicinity, and advance along with hii forces in the march against Naples. ,According to a rumour circulated on the French Bourse yesterday_ afternoon, the King had already_retired, t e k. ing refuge on igard the Austrian frigate Stromboli, and leaving his capital to be occupied by a body of Piedmentese troops, who have been for some weeks past hovering about the, vicinity of Naples, ready to take advantage of 'such an etnergency. The account Which is given of the circumstances which followed upon the successful "attack .of the. Garibaldians upon Piele, affords another strong proof of the utter state of disorganisation of the Neapolitan troops, and how little - even the best of them .are to , be, depended _. on. It will also be observed from a statement in the letter of our Paris correspondent, that it is understood - in that city, that the simultaneous outbursts of insurrection in the BaSilicate. and elsewhere, are the results of a precon certed secret understanding between the .inhabitants and the insurrection committees, which were permitted to sit so long unmolested in Naples.' This is the season for speeches in France. In addition to the address of M. de Persigny on Tuesday last, we are led• to-expect similar addresses on similar occasions and on a similar topic from M. 'ould, by no means unknown in this department of French statemanship, Count de Morny, and M. de la Guerronniere, who are • expected respectively to address the' Councils General of the Ilautes Pyrenees, Puy-du-Dome, and Haute Vienne. It is _ doubtful, however, whether-the subject of these politiCal harangues will, after all is done, be satisfactorily exhausted. Every attentive . observer of -the progress of .the French policy towards Italy, must - have remarked the significant change in the attitude of the Emperor towards the affairs of Italy. The Italian question seems at this moment to be regarded by him with actual indif ference. The French admiral in command of the French squadron at Naples, has, we are told by a Turin journal, received orders to observe the strictest neutrality, and to do nothing-which may interfere with the defence of Naples against an attack, either one way or the other. It is perfectly clear that this 'recent 'declaration by France of the principle of non-intervention, of which this circumstance must be accepted as a proof, has pro ceeded fully as much from fear as from choice. The Emperor could not be insensible to the danger he would. incur, Ist, by being alienated from England, and . 2nd, from having on his hands a great war with Prussia, j Austria, and all Geratany, and which might not only THE DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, AUGUST 30, 1860. overwhelm him by lite deflOtive, results, but utterly destroy the new principles that - t form the foundation on which the modern French Empire rests. All these con 'sequences he has doubtlesi had before him ; but so long as he adheres to thelVise line of conduct which such consideratiOns suggest, vie need: not stop to gauge too deeply the motives on which he acts. The interview which Signori Farini and Caldeni have had with his Majeoty, will turn out to have been a very important one, there can be no doubt. The Baden-Baden meeting, the treaty of Tceplitz, and the recent general rapprochement of the different Ger man States towards each, other, have suggested, amol g other things, the expediency of devising some means of remedying the evils of divided command and separate action in the Federal. army. The army of the Federa tion, being formed of contingents from several indepen dent states, the artillery of these bodies is a miscella neous collection of field batteries and guns of every diversity of weight and calibre. The same diversity existed till lately in the small arms, but the defect has been, to some degree, remedied. The manufacture and supply of ammunition, for the artilley, are thus ren- dered difficult, and in active service would certainly cause confusion, with disaster as the consequence. It has, therefore,—been suggested that the Diet 'should establiah some uniform system for the artillery of the Federal army, by which it may be kept of the same sizes and weight of metal, that the batteries may be more easily supplied with ammunition, and more efficiently worked. The Prussian artillery will probably be the model of the new organisation; artillery officers in the service of all the German states have been in specting the Prussian cannon foundries, and attending the artillery practice at Berlin. Other proposals for the same desirable object are also under consideration. The Court of Appeal at Brussels gave, on Saturday last, a judgment of considerable importance—namely, that under the law of 22nd September, 1823, it is illegal for Roman Catholic priests or other persons to make collections of Peter's Pence for the Pope without the authorisation of the Government. This law, it appears, stipulates in express terms that " all establishments or persons who may wish to make collections from house to house to relieve calamities or misfortunes must first obtain a formal authorisation ; " and the Court held that the collection of Peter's Pence fell within that enactment, inasmuch as it must be considered destined to " relieve a calamity." In consequence of this view of the law, the Court confirmed a condemnation pronounced on three priests by the Tribunal of Correctional Police of Mona for having solicited in houses and obtained dona tions of Peter's Pence. The advices from New Grenada show a complete state of disorganisation. Three of the States—viz., Cauca, Bolivar, and Santander—have declared themselves inde pendent of the Confederation. The ports of Cartagena, Savanilla, and Zapote have been closed by order of the Government. An attempt made by the insurrectionary party to take Santa Marta had been defeated by the vigilance of the Governor. From Bogota the President of the Republic, accompanied by General Herren, had gone with troops against the State of Santander, deter mined to put down the insurrection, and it was believed that the Government would succeed in doing so. Reports have been current for some time back of an agitation among the Mussulmans of Morocco, coinciding with the recent fanatical outburst in Syria, in conse quence of which it was said a Spanish man-of-war had been sent to Tangier. It is quite clear that, while Miley Abbas and his suite are in Spain, there is no danger of an outbreak against the Spaniards in Morocco, and indeed, even without that guarantee, it is much to be doubted' whether the Moors viauld dare attempt anything against Tetuan so long as its gar- Axton.: is vigilant and' strong. They have had too recent - and severe a lesson. The Moniteur de l' Annie • _lap, however, that they recently tested the vigilance of the Spanish forts which secure / the' communication between Tetuan.and . the_ sea. The sentries at Custom-house Fort, About' a mile from the mouth of the river Guad-el-Jelu, saw some 140 Moors, armed only with sticks, and followed by dogs, came down from the mountains and spread themselves across the plain with a certain degree of erder. They_ then organised a hare-hunt, and finally, closing in upon.their centre, they gradually approached towards the fort, the garrison of which- did not show itself, and affected not to notice them. One group having come close up to the ditch, a corporal and four men were sent ont to challenge them. The Moors said they were thirsty and wanted drink. They were allowed to go to .the gate, only two at a time, and there the sol diers took water to them. The next day they came down again, but this time they were armed with their long guns. The garrison of the fort was obliged to make a demonstration, and to desire them to keep without the boundary line fixed by the treaty. Lord Elcho has again addressed a letter to the Times on the subject of artisan volunteering. He says : " The importance of the subject will, I hope, plead my apology for again addressing to you a few remarks on the admission of artisans to the volunteer ranks. I do so because I am anxious to explain two points in my former letter to which objections have been taken. 1. It has been stated that my proposal of attaching artisan companies to existing corps is in contradiction of the object I have in view—viz., the union of classes. 2. It is said that the adoption of a smart optional dress would be like playing at soldiers, and would be viewed with jealousy and disfavour by those who could not afford it. Now, as regards the first objection, I readily admit that the'formation of artisan companies would establish class distinctions to a certain extent ; but it must be remembered that this was only suggested as an alternative, in case the expenses of existing corps should debar the artisans from joining ; and I proposed the formation of artisan eorepanies attached to existing corps as a more preferable course to the formation of special and separate artisan corps. These artisan companies, being under the same-- com manding officer as the other companies, and forming part of one regiment, would necessarily be under the. influence of that esprit de corps which pervades every regiment, and this would go far to neutralise any class feelings, prejudices, or jealousies, such as would infal libly arise under a system of separate artisan corps. Be sides. these artisan companies would have the benefit of the butts, staff, head-quarters, drill place, &c., of the corps to which they were attached, and these are ex penses which, when added to the cost of uniforms, 'will be found to press heavily on the Artisan Corps Benevolent Fund. Secondly, as regards the objections raised to the suggestion -of a smart optional uniform. It is easy to talk of man-millinery, and to say that the adoption of. a smart optional uniform would be like playing at soldiers ; but many a gallant soldier has been attracted to the army by a showy uniform. Love of dress is inherent in human nature ; it is a con sideration which is not lost, sight of by the recruit ing sergeant, and it is an element which must not be omitted in the formation of a Volunteer corps. Assum ing, _then, that it is only lay adopting a cheap, plain, serviceable uniform that a union of classes can be effected,- why should a volunteer who can affordit, or who is likely to require it, be debarred from getting a smarter dress ? Because, it is said, it will create jea lousies. To this objection I have only to reply that this system has been adopted in the London Scottish, and has given rise to no jealousies, remonstrances, or discontent; and I would, in conclusion, refer . all who raise this objection to ; the admirable letter of an artisan, Mr. Peale, which appeared in the Times of Tuesday last." One hundred and twenty-five thousand of the inhabit ants of the Australian gold-fields dwell in tents, of which three-fourths consist of but a single apartment. Exclu sive of the Chinese and the Aborigines, sixty-nine per cent. only of the population of the large area over which the gold-fields extend, reside in habitations that afford any approach to an adeiluate protection from the climate. A worker for many years in a carriage manufactory states in reference to the supposed origin of the recent destructive fire at liesterton's factory, Long-acre, London, that he witnessed, about thirty years ago, a remarkable fact, to which it would be well if attention were directed. One morning, a few minutes after seven o'cltiek, he was near the store-room for colours and varnishes, in the painting-loft, when the foreman of the painters opened the door with his key. His sudden excla mation of surprise and alarm called his attention to the cause. A large barrel of lamp-black, at the instant he opened the door, by the concussion, fell asunder, the whole mass of lamp-black being in a glow of fire, like )urning charcoal. Had the room been undisturbed for smother hour, in all probability the place would have been in flames, and the result been similar to the late catastrophe. Such may have been the origin of the_fire in Long-acre, and no one be to blame for negligence or R 'ASS SHIRT , WHICH IS SO UNIVERSALLY APPROVED OF, MAT BE OBTAINED AT P. L.

LOUIS NAPOLEON is undoubtedly the " head man" in France ; but the Count DE PERSIGNY, we suspect, is " the man with the head." That his Imperial master possesses wonderful abilities, we . never doubted; but it seems as certain that he has been much indebted to " my dear PER " for the tact with which he has concocted and carried out his secret schemes, and managed to keep_England so far in the dark. Both the Emperor and the Count know England and Englishmen . _ so thoroughly, and have evidently been so mutually confidant, that the success with which they have hoodwinked us is, in some measure,- accounted for, especially when we take into account the material they had to work upon in the persons of the quondam. ." guest of Cern pi4gne;" and the once Minister Plenipotentiary to Vienna, to wit, Lords PALMERSTON and Rus- SELL. We have had another very notable illus tration of the devotion of Count PERSIGNY to the EmperOr's policy, and of his peculiar ability in defending it, in the speech delivered at the open ing of the General Council of the Department of the Loire, of which he is president. His objects were to prove that the Empire has been, and still is, Peace ; that war has never been waged by LOUIS NAPOLEON, save to resolve difficulties which could not have been solved by diplomacy ; that no question now occupies the attention of Europe that_need endanger its peace ; that the existing uneasiness and distrust arise from envy of the glory of France ; that the Emperor has deceived nobody—that upon the whole his policy has been pure and honest ; and that, the military role of France having been ended, an era of peace and prosperity is now opening for Europe. If the Count had confined himself to general assurances of an agreeable and soporific nature, they might have gone far to deceive us ; but unfortunately for his cause, he has attempted to give detailed proofs of the truth of his several statements ; and these, when subjected to the test of facts now familiar to all the world, except France perhaps,' will be found utterly insufficient to support his specious and plausible assumptions. This is especially remarkable with reference to the somewhat summary manner in which Count PERSIGNY disposes of the Eastern qUestion—the question which, of all others, perhaps, most anxi ously concerns England at the present moment. The Emperor, of course, receives all the credit of the Crimean war and the destruction of Sebastopol, whereby he "prevented Russia from taking pos session of Constantinople, and the Eastern ques tion was confided"—by the Emperor, no doubt, — "to the charge of united Eurepe." We all remember hew the Emperor forced us into peace with:RuSsia,... It Was rumoured and believed at that time, and we have quite recently had further good reason.: to entertain the belief, that the in decenhaste with which that war was concluded, was efcpfp,ind and accounted fOr by the existence of a secret arrangement then entered intObetween Franee EYnd . ,Russia for again opening: up the entire • Eastern question at the earliest fitting opportunitY. Russia reminded France of this promik during the late conferences on the present disturbances in -the twit. We have now beheld the eagerness of Louis NAPOLEON to take action in this matter, with or without the consent of " united Europe," to whose charge the Count would have us believe the Emperor had conten tedly confided the Eastern question. This critical topic, however, the Count has not found it con venient to dwell upon, and, as we have seen, it is dismissed by him in a few vague and unsatisfac- t is tory words. The apprehensions entertained in Germany re• specting the Rhine frontier, we are told, do no merit serious discussion. What then was the object of the Baden - Baden Conference , and what induced Prussia and Austria, immediately after it, to renew a good understanding for the consolida tion of the German powers and forces? But the President of the Loire condescends to argue the matter. " The Rhine is no longer a strategic frontier. France, being much stronger when Germany, is divided, will never support the pro ject of German unity for any compensation she might obtain." These sentences are cunningly devised. It is not asserted that France does not support the project of Ger man u nity. Neither is it asserted that the Rhine is no longer a frontier which France desires and means to have. simply argued that, as a mere strategic frontier, it would be no adequate compensation to France for her support. In other words, that that concession is but a fraction al p art of what has bee n set down by Louis NA P O LEON as the fruits he might re ap from the executio n of his " proj ec t." Although the fears of an invasion current in England are also said to be unworthy of " serious discussion," the Count does discuss-=arid that very seriously and at greater length than any other point he touches upon—the state of the relations between England and France. He enters upon the subject by adroitly flattering the English nation as " peaceful," the Queen as "virtuous," and our Ministers as "eminent men." We are then favoured with the assurance that "France did 'not create the complications in Italy." We shall not attempt to prove that she did; but we know that if she had not a secret agency long at work exciting these " complica tions," all the world has been labouring under a grave misapprehernion, and one too deeply fixed in men's minds to be removed by a denial from a devoted friend and servant of the Emperor's. His secret promises to VICTOR EMMANUEL to repulse the Austrians and his priVate bargain for the cession of Nice and Savoy are now patent to all men, and present a startling antithesis to his repeated disavowals of any such intentions, and of the existence of any such treaty. The Count says that the Emperor "kept silence" upon these subjects, and he attempts to justify that silence on the ground o f prudence. But the Emperor did not "keep silence." •On the con trary, he was wont to declare that he was not preparing for war ; and when asked to dis arm, his answer was that he could not as he had not been arming. Then, again, when he did go 'to war, we were told that it was for "an iden," and not for " territorial aggran disement." . The underhand treaty with Sardinia was repeatedly denied; and a solemn assurance was given that nothing would be done by w a y of annexation without the consent of the , Great Powers, and so forth. All this is What i s e ill e a " keeping silence." But the Count goes farther, and boldly asserts that " France has never con cealed her intentions, either from Sardinia or from England. She has deceived nobody." This is too much. It is downright falsehood, and is flatly contradictory to the Count's own state ments, that the Emperor kept silence as to his intentions of going to war and of annexing Nice and Savoy. It has been flatly contradicted by Lords PALMERsTON and RUSSELL, when to their own shame they avowed in Parliament that they had been deceived by France. Was it not one of Lord PALMERSTON'S latest utterances on the subject that, in consequence of the Emperor's conduct in the Nice and Savoy treachery, it had especially become our duty and that of every other great Power to demise the greatest caution and most prudent foresight. What else has led us to expend so many millions upon our naval and military armaments, and in the completion of our fortifications. Never deceived anybody ! Why, even those who stood out longest against eery Waruipg as to NeaPoie9nic deceitfulness are now mistrustful of every word he says. But was not France, after all, reluctantly coin )eßed to seize upon those provinces ? " The [talians," says the Count, " after the conclusion of :he peace of Villafranca, having acted in violation of that treaty on the other side of the Alps, France could not renounce her Alpine frontiers." Why, the plea looks so plausible, that it may seem hard to doubt it. But let us ask, How can the Italians be said to have violated the treaty of Villafranca, seeing that they never were parties to it ? How could they break a bargain they never made ? With what honesty of language can any one talk of France renouncing or not renouncing " her Alpine frontiers," when these frontiers were not hers to renounce ? It seems, according to Count PERSIGNY'S mani festo, that " France has not shaken the confidence of Europe!" " The political system of 1815 has been subverted by Europe itself." Then our Queen must have been wrong when she said in her prorogation speech that " an object to which all the Powers who were parties to the treaty of Vienna of 1815 attached great importance, is no less important now than then for the general interests of Europe." France has upset all these foolish notions, "by common consent," and she is satisfied. " Her work is achieved, and the mis sion of the new Empire is established." In other words, France has asserted, and means to main tain, her supremacy in Europe ; and the other nations may as well " consent" to yield to her, else it may become His Majesty's painful duty to teach a rough lesson of obedience. "If " the Emperor is allowed to have his own way, and carry everything before him, as he has done hitherto, then we may conclude with Count PERSIGNY, and indulge in the "great happiness of being conscientiously able to say that an era of peace and prosperity is now opening for Europe." Nothing has so much astonished us in the perusal of this manifesto as the miserable weak ness and transparency of the defence set up. by the President of the Loire, notwithstanding the elaborate and jesuitical efforts he makes to con ceal facts and misrepresent the truth. We had thought that so able and experienced a diplo matist could really have constructed a far stronger and less assailable argument in behalf of French policy ; but we feel much indebted to him for undeceiving us. The ablest advocate of NAPOLEON 111. has done his best to vindicate his imperial master, and has most signally failed. It is, important also to note the marked similarity between the Count's style of assertion and argu ment and that of LOUIS NAPOLEON himself, when he finds it necessary to explain or defend him self. We now feel more confident than ever that Count PERSIONY was the real author of the letter addressed to him by the Emperor,, which recently caused some sensation. Let Englishmen, and especially English statesmen, know and beware of Count PERSIGNY—he is the Emperor's alter ego. FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE FRANCE. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, Wednesday, August 29, 1860. The spoech of the Emperor at Lyons, as a matter of course, continues to be the staple topic of conversation and of journalistic discussion; but it is not improbable that it will speedily have to divide public interest with a fresh address from M. de Persigny, who has gone down to his department to preside at the opening meeting of its General Council, and who is pretty certain to avail himself of so good an opportunity of sup plementing and explaining anything that has been found to be defective in the Lyons allocution. A propos of this last, I hear it confidently stated that the published version of it is not altogether conformable to the one originally drawn up. It is said that instead of the phrase " the unjust distrusts excited beyond the fron tier," the words were in the first instance the "unjust suspicions of Europe," an expression w hich is, perhaps, a little less alarming than the one employed ; and also, that M. Thouvenel took advantage of his being president of the General Council of the Meuse to absent himself from Lyons at the time the speech was made, in order that he might not be personally compro j mised in his relations with the representatives of the other powers, by any words that might fall from the Emperor. It is now positively given out that there will be no meeting between the Emperor and the Queen of Spain ; but on the other hand, the rumour is confirmed that the Bey of Tunis will come to Algiers, to pay his respects to the Em peror on his arrival there—a circumstance which is considerably:symptomatic of the growing increase of French influence in Africa. I am assured that, in spite of all the reports to the contrary, there is really little or nothing doing at present in the way of increasing the naval force of France, so that in this respect, at all events, the recent pacific assurances of the Emperor are not contradicted. Some reinforcements have been, however, sent to China and elsewhere. The steam frigates Ulloa, and El Dorado, have de parted for Alexandria with a number of marines, 700 men, •and 400 tons of ammunition and projec tiles, for the army in China ; and two men-of-war are to leave Toulon on the Ist proximo for the Pacific, to reinforce the French squadron stationed there. The Eylau is the only vessel of the squadron stationed at Naples which has returned to Toulon. It was intended that four ships belonging to this squadron should return, to be in attendance on the Emperor, but the critical state of affairs at Naples has prevented this arrangement being carried out. It is stated that the Eylau, which happened to be not far out of the line of fire when the Tukery was fired upon by the forts on the occa sion of its crew 'trying • to cut out the Menarca, made a narrow escape, some of the shot in tended for the Tukery having pile through her rigg i ng . If, however, the port of Toulon has been deprived of the imposing presence of a large naval squa dron on the occasion of the fete it is about to give to theEraperor, the other great Mediterranea n port of Marseilles will soon be crowded with vessels of a less war lik e d escr i p ti on , for a great movement has already begun to manifest itself in that place, with a view of profiting by the free im portation of corn permitted by the Imperial decree of the 22nd instant. The price of grain has been sensibly affected by the suspension of the slidi ng scale and by the admission of foreign vessels con taining cargoes of corn, w ithout thei r h av i ng to pay the foreign tonnage duties ; and th e var i ous Greek houses in Marseilles have hastened to give large orders for grain from the Levant. M ar seilles is a l so making s i m il ar magn ifi cent preparations with that of Toulon for the reception m of their Majes ties. The municipality intends to present to the Empress a diamond-bracelet of the value of 70,000 francs. This bijou has a large • medallion, upon which the arms of the city are engraved. On gently pressing a spring the me dallion opens, and discloses a likeness of the Prince Imperial. To pass to another subject of quite a different kind. I see it noticed in the Semaphore, that two Sisters of Charity who had both come direct from Damascus, passed through Marseilles the other day on their way hither, in company with a Greek priest. They were indebted for their safety to Abd-el-Kader, and he had also furnished them with the means of embarking for France. " One of these holy women," adds this paper, "had had her right ear cut off by the Druses at the very time that she was engaged in lavishing attentions on the wounded Christians who had taken refuge in the convent, the succours of which she was administering with heroic fortitude." The only piece of news I have to mention regarding the movements of the Garibaldians in Calabria is that disembarkations continue to be effected each day on every part of the coast, some of them being unpleasantly near to Naples itself, and all being immediately followed by insur rections not only in these localities but in every province of the empire. It is also said that evidence has come to light which shows that these revolts are the result of a plan agreed upon between Garibaldi and the Central Revolutionary Committee, which, it thus turns out, was after all not dissolved until it had done the greatest part of its work. I should not be surprised to learn in the course of to-day, that the revolution, like so many other important events which have lately taken place under our eyes, is a fait accompli. The harvest prospects are decidedly better on this side of the Channel. Efforts almost incre dible, when it is considered that they have been made by French agriculturists, are being used to cut and get in the crop. In many districts the farmers are working night and day with this object; and in others, the cures have " invited" their parishioners to go on with their reaping on Sundays. There is no change iu the Bourso worth noting. LATEST NEWS. (BY BRITISH AND IRISH MAGNETIC TELEGRAPH.) FRANCE. PARIS, Aug. 29. The Moniteur contains the following telegram, dated Chambery, 28th instant :—ln the evening a grand ball was given in the theatre. It is stated that the Emperor has resolved to create two new regiments of Zouaves. THE FRENCH FUNDS. PARIS, August 29. On the Paris Bourse the speculators are dis cussing the effect of the fall of the Bourbon dynasty at Naples. Yesterday, according to the Banker's Despatch, there was a fall of 10 per cent. in the Neapolitan funds. 3.35 P.M.—The rumours current to-day have not affected the Bourse to any great extent.

A rumour is current on the Bourse that the King of Naples left Naples yesterday, at 5 p.m., on board the Stromboli, and that the Pied montese had occupied the forts. SICILY. The official journal of Sicily declares that as no law is applicable to the journals, they are subject to the will of the Dictator. • NAPLES. Aug: 28. The royal troops in Calabria hive again been defeated. The insurgents of . I . l34silicata are advancing towards Salerno. It is beliexed-that they will join Garibaldi and march" against Naples. The Neapolitan troops were attacked by the Garibaldians at Piale, by whom they were sur rounded and defeated. An armistice was then proposed. The commanding officer referred this proposition to the General-in-Chief in order to obtain his decision. In the meantime the enthu siasm of the Neapolitan troops abated ; they became disorganised and dispersed, leaving the batteries without any defenders. A Turin journal asserts that the admiral in command of the French squadron at Naples has received orders to observe the strictest neutrality, and to do nothing that may interfere with the defence of Naples against an attack. AUSTRIA. VIENNA, Aug: 29. Notwithstanding the positive announcement made by several German newspapers of an approaching interview of the Emperor of Austria and the Czar, and at which the Prince Regent, it was stated, would also be present, no steps have been taken with that object up to the pre sent time, either by the Emperor of Austria or the Czar. Out of consideration to France both sovereigns will carefully abstain from taking any steps which might be interpreted as an act . of coalition against her. The Emperor has induced General Benedek to remain at the head of the Hungarian administra tion until the closing of the extraordinary session of the enlarged Council of the Empire. This will probably take place very soon ; as, although his Majesty expressed his intention of not leav ing Vienna before the Reichsrath closes its sit tings, he has fixed his departure for the lath September. The Hungarian members of . the Reichsrath are frequently summoned before the Emperor. It is believed that Austria will enter among the number of constitutional States, not withstanding the endeavours of the military aristocracy to the contrary. Several indepen dent and liberal statesmen have considered it their duty to represent to the Emperor that unless the constitutional tendencies of the empire be complied with a revolution would become inevitable. The Presse, of to-day, publishes the text of the proposal of the minority of the committee of twenty-one•members, which is as follows :—That his Majesty, by his own authority and power, should create such institutions as will allow the greatest possible development of the free and independent right of representation in all the provinces, and, at the same time, should in the most complete manner Maintain the unity of the Empire and of the legislative - and executive powers of the Government; and, further, that an e ffective and independent control should be exer cised over the public administration by a proper representation of .all the interests of the people in the Communes, the Diets, and the Council of the Empire. PIEDMONT. A private despatch from Chambery states that their Majesties have received Signori Farini and Caldini. The order to prevent the departure of any more volunteers for Sicily is defended by the ministerial journals of Turin, on the ground that the deser tions from the Sardinian army to join the national cause had become so numerous as to threaten the demoralisation of the army. BELGIUM, The Appeal Court of Brussels had decided that it is illegal for Roman Catholic priests or other persons to make collections of Peter's Pence for the Pope without the authorisation of the Government.
