Gabriel's productions— unparalleled in Mechanical Dentistry—the remarkable sim plicity of arrangement, together with the wonderful amount of comfort enjoyed by the wearer, as well as the perfectly indestructible nature of the materials employed, which last a lifetime, have produced a host of imitations, and the usual results in such cases. Certain persons, unable to adopt Messrs. Gabriel's Improvements, have Imitated their Adver tisements, and adopted other methods, so as to lead the Public to believe they caa supply Messrs. Gabriel's Inven tions. Messrs. Gabriel feel it a duty they owe to their Patients, as well as to themselves, to state that their pro ductions can only be obtained as now Advertised. Address as under. IMPORTANT NOTICE. MESSRS. GABRIEL.

Messrs. Gabriel's Self-adhesive Mineral Teeth and Patent Coralite Gum-coloured India Rubber Gums entirely supersede the ordinary methods, and are supplied without Springs, Wires, or Metals, and without Extracting Teeth or Stumps. Among the moreimportant advantages attainable by Messrs. Gabriel's Section frames and Air Cells, the following may be enumerated Besides being preferable in all other respects, excel in point of economy, quality, and durability, as well as for the advantages they offer to these who, residing abroad or in the country, are not able to pay frequent visits to the Den tist. One set will wear longer than three ordinary ones, they act as supports to loose teeth, require no springs, wires, or metals, while for accuracy of fit, and increased amount of suc tion, they stand unrivalled. The gradual change or absorption of the Gums, the loss of Teeth or Stumps, can at any time be made good without inter fering with the stability of the case, or the convenience of the patient, and requires no operation. The best materials, which are warranted to remain pure and sweet, with first-class workmanship only employed, while the expense is even less than half the ordinary cost.

HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT AND PlLLS.—Nette Rheumatism. In all severe pains in the joints or muscles after due fomenta tion with warm water, the soothing action of this Ointment is most remarkable; it seems at one to lessen inflammation ease pain, reduce the swelling, rostere the free circulatiots srid expel the disease. In these tomplaints, indeed, Hetlotvay's Ointment and Pills are aft infallibl e specific. The Ointment should be rubbed as near the part in pain as the patient can bear; it is absorbed and directly conveyed to the diseased textures, where, acting. on nerves, vessels, and guiders, it will arrest disease and again establish healthy action. The aperient qualities of the Pills have the happiest effect in assisting the Ointment.

In the LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE to-day, although the accounts from the United States by the Persia contributed to keep up a feeling of anxiety, the Funds were supported at SatUrday's quotations. Attention was principally directed to preparations for the approaching settlement in Consols. British Railway Shares were dull until the close, when they improved a shade on a " bear" speculator being declared a defaulter. They closed good in tone. Canadas were dull.

The following appeared in our later editions of yesterday : There has been few transactions in the stock market, but the opening prices, chiefly on the character of the Bank return, showed an improvement of 1, and were maintained to the close. In the discount market there has been a good demand, partly in anticipation of the 4th. No gold was taken from the Bank. The Ceylon, with the outward India and China mails, will take £95,649 in specie, of which £76,000 is in silver. The railway market was rather better in the earlier part of the day, but subsequently relapsed, especially after regular hours.—Times City Article. The stock markets were influenced by the unexpect edly favourable character of the Bank return, which fully explains the reduction in the rate of discount. Consols advanced f per cent., and in the market for British railway stocks the tendency of prices was upwards. There .was a good demand in the discount market, but the supply of money was ample, and the best bills were taken at 4a to 41 per cent. On Monday preparations to meet the bills due on the 4th will engage attention.—Daily News City Article. The Daily News does not entertain any exaggerated apprehension respecting the probable flow of gold to the United States. Specie shipments now commenced argue sagacity and providence : .not a speculation upon the turn of the exchange. A great blow having been struck at public confidence, specie is largely absorbed as a medium ordinarily'furnished by bills of exchange. Again specie may be sent as the best medium of paying for securities or 'produce, which are excessively depredated in the United States. The stocks in the warehouses of the United Kingdom, as compared with last year, show an increase in the fol lowing articles :—Currants, 86 per cent.; brandy, 71 per cent.; tea, 18 per cent.; tobacco, 8 per ecnt.; and wine, 30 per cent. The articles that exhibit a decrease are—Coffee, 20 per cent.; raisins, 79 per cent.; pepper, 131 per cent.; rum, per cent.; and sugar, 8 per cent. The statistics of the import and export trade show that whilst we have imported fully £20,000,000 more this year than last year, the increase in our exports is only about £3,700,000. The trade statistics of the port of New York for the first ten months of the present year show, compared with last year, an increase of £5,100,000 sterling in exports, a decrease of £2,000,000 in the imports, and a decrease of £3,560,000 in the exports of specie—leaving a large balance in favour of America. The Peninsular and Oriental Company intend, on the Ist of January, to raise the rates of freights and passage money to the point at which they stood previously to the reduction made in 1856. The heavy cost of fuel is assigned as the reason. This cost, daring the last twelve months, has amounted to £850,000. The LONDON COLONIAL PRODUCE MARKET to-day was inactive. Sugar : The market was quiet ; on Saturday 2,400 bags Mauritius sold at 42s for half-grainy yellow and grey. Coffee : Prices were firm, and 2,600 Rio, barely good firsts, sold at 56s for a near port. Tea : The market was quiet, and business very limited. Rice : Inquiry dull, and no sales reported. Saltpetre The market was flat. At the LONDON COLONIAL WOOL SALES to-day on the whole a fair amount of steadiness was observed in the biddings, and no further change took place in prices beyond that already notified. The attendance of buyers was tolerably numerous, but the transactions on Continental account were much restricted. The LONDON TALLOW MARKET to-day was steady at the following quotations :—All the month, 50s 6d ; January to March, 60s. In the BOROUGH HOP MARKET to-day the show of Hops was rather increased. Trade was generally 'very inactive, Last week's imports were-1,792 bales from firemen 1 340 from Ham burgh ; 33 from Ostend ; 290 from Rotterdam ; 121 bales and 28 pockets from Antwerp, and 91 bales from Cronstadt. At the LONDON CORN MARKET to-day the supplies of foreign grain were good, but of English very small. A more cheerful tone for Wheat. Flour sold pretty readily. Maize un altered. Barley is cheaper. Beans and Peas as last week. New Oats 6d to is lower. At the METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET today the supplies of stock were only moderate~ Prince Beasts, Sheep, and Calves hate sold steadily on rather higher terms.

THE DAY. . • The Empress Eugenie, in the quality of a lady of rank and distinction travelling for her health, has been invited as a guest of our beloved Queen to Windsor Castle, and the august visitor has accepted the invita tion Bs a eomifiatid; Her ittiperial Majesty; thnugh crossing the portals of the palace of trighifid 4 s Queen as the Countess la Motto Beauvron, is most happily and fitly preceded by the most abundant evidence of the heartfelt respect and esteem, in which she is held by all classes of the people ober whom Queen Victoria reigns. The bisit *ill bb fibt oink d pritate one, bUt - Very brief it will, however, it is to be hoped, be the forettinner of many succeeding ones, and that this hope is shared by the Emperor may be gathered from the concluding sentence of an article in the .3foniteur, alluding to the warm and enthusiastic reception of the Empress in Eng land, in whieh his Majesty, through his official journal, thus aptiesseS himself —"These sympathetic manifes tations on the part of the English nation cannot but draw closer the ties which bind the two nations, and prove, iii d striking rttanner, how well the good sense of the masses knows hott id treat the violent and incon siderate attacks of which a certain portion of the press fears not to make itself the organ." ii 4 ot shine days past, as is known, rumours of an . arrangement, relative to the cession of Venetia, have been circulated in diffe rent journals in this country an d abroad, but especially in various German pap e r s . Th e Ifiandtifi• df iritiltid; of the 29th ult., a journal sup posed to be well informed dti did Object of the inten tions of the Austri an Government, reprodtices these withoutor e contradicting t t r h ad er i expressing tngh t e its belief in their m a s " unexact," but reports, correctness, concludes with an admission that there is " something in them." This of itself is "something," attd it is devoutly to bo hoped that whatever it is, it will take a definitive and satisfactory form before next spring, by which period the time for negotiation will have passed. Why the semi-official rays should take the present opportunity of denying, as it does in its issue of to-day, that " we believe we can affirm that such a question has never been mooted in the councils of any power without exception." But may it not, for all this, have been mooted in some unofficial form There is no other foreign news of any importance. The British ship Clyde, 1,343 tons, from Calcutta to London, with a crew of thirty-two hands, and a valu able cargo, was abandoned on the 9th of October. She had encountered severe gales, lost her masts, and sprung a dangerous leak, when fortunately an American vessel hove in sight, and took the :crew on board. They set fire to the Clyde before leaving her, A large ship, called the British Merchant, was also totally destroyed , by fire in the port of S ydney, on the 10th of September, while loading for London. A dreadful colliery explosion has taken place in a mine belonging to the Risca Coal Company, in Wales. Up to the time of the latest information, at least 100 persons appear to have met a frightful death, and it is probable that even 120 have been killed. The following notice was issued from the General Post Office on Saturday, viz. :—" It is understood that the Atlantic Royal Mail Steam Navigation Company will not have a vessel to despatch from Galway to America this day (Tuesday), the 4th December. The service will therefore be necessarily omitted." When the mail packet Atlantic left New York on the 17th ult., there was such uneasiness felt in that city respecting the political agitation in the south, that a number of passengers who had taken their passage in the steamer refrained from proceeding in her to Europe. The condemned convict Cowley, who was sentenced to death for the murder of his illegitimate child at Oundle, at the last sessions, and who was respited, has now received a commutation, his capital sentence being changed to one of fifteen years' transportation. The official returns of the emigration from the Mersey for the month just concluded have been made up by the Government emigration officers, and, although they present a marked diminution when compared with last month, still, when contrasted with the corresponding period of 1859, there is little change to notice in the aspect or character of the trade. The total number of passengers in November amounted to 2,798-161 cabin and 2,637 steerage, of whom 844 were English, 315 Scotch, 1,381 Irish, and 97 were natives of other countries. During the previous month of October the aggregate numbers were 316 cabin and 5,300 steerage passengers, while, during the same period of 1859, "under the Act," the official returns numbered 3,286 souls-112 cabin and 3,124 steerage passengers; " short ships " " not under the act"), Cunard, Cana dian, and other Royal Mail steamers, carried out 1,541 passengers, against 948 in the corresponding period of last year. To the United States there were cleared at Liverpool, " under the Act," 125 cabin and 2,008 steer age passengers, 498 of whom were English, 138 Scotch, 1,174 Irish, and 73 of other countries, against 256 cabin and 3,959 steerage in October, and 67 cabin and 1,842 steerage in the corresponding period of last year, " Short ships" to the United States conveyed, during the month, 1,256, chiefly cabin passengers, and to Canada 150 souls. To Australia the emigration has been very dull, the total number "under the Act," inclusive of the Government emigrant ship Shackamaxon, only reaching 748 souls-26 cabin and 722 steerage, of whom 346 were English, 177 Scotch, 175 Irish, and 24 foreigners, while during the cor responding month of last year the number reached 1,023-30 cabin and 993 steerage, 34 passengers were conveyed by " short ships" during the month. A somewhat novel feature in these returns is the shipment of no less than 10 cabin and 32 steerage passengers "under the Act"—all Irish—to Buenos Ayres, in the La Zingara. Five "short ships" were also despatched with 31 cabin passengers ; eight passen gers sailed in "short ships" to West India ports. To Africa, the West African mail steamer conveyed 53, and a " short ship" two cabin passengers. There has been no direct emigration to New Zealand during the month, although the Melbourne vessels took passengers for Auckland. . We regret to announce that the Royal West Indian Mail steam-ship Tasmanian, which sailed yesterday afternoon from Southampton, has gone ashore in Tot terill Bay; it vas, however, hoped that she would be got off with the flood tide. THE PROCTORS, THE LADIES, AND THE STUDENTS OF CAMBRIDGE. It the Court of Common Pleas, at Westminster, the Lord Chief Justice EARL, and a special jury have been engaged for several days recently, hearing the case of KEMPE V. NEVILLE. This was an action for false imprisonment in the Spin ning-house, brought by EMMA KEMPE against the Vice-Chancellor of Cambridge University, Miss KEMPE is a young lady, 24 years of age, a milliner and dressmaker, of Cambridge. In 1859 she became acquainted with Mr. GRAHAM, of Emmanuel College, at a promenade concert at Fenner's-grounds. In January last, Mr. GRA HAM, having recently taken his B.A. degree, invited some of his friends, and EMMA KEMPE among the rest, to a private party at Shel ford, some five miles from the city. She was to be accompanied by her younger sister, who is fourteen years of age, and some other young lady acquaintances. There was to be a dance and supper. They were to go and return in the "bus' —going at six and returning at eleven or twelve. When EMMA and her sister stepped jauntily into the " bus," they found Mr. GRAHAM there and another gentleman. There was also a musician. By-and-bye four other friends entered the vehicle and joined the travelling party, which now num including the fiddl er . N b e o r e d d o u h b a t l f a - l a l - s s c e o e r m e e p d er p s l o e n a s s ' ant and promising, and all looked forward to a most . delightful evening's amusement. But, alas for the uncertainty which attends all human arrangements; it was not to be. The ladies all smiles, and the gentlemen all gallantry, could scarcely have exchanged warm congratulations on meeting, and have seated them selves comfortably in their places, when dismay fell upon every heart. The omnibus had not got further on its way than the Town Gaol, when the rude hand of proctorial authority put an end to the felicity of the journey and the pleasurable prospects of the party. The two gentlemen, on being challenged by the Proctor, got out, and left their fair friends and guests to their cruel fate. Instead of proceeding to Shelford, the omnibus moved towards the Spinning-house, within the walls of which EMMA and the other ladies Were dragged, and after a few questions in a private room EMMA was Incarcerated in a cold little cell, where she spent a miserable night. Next day her nice dress, intended for the ball, was taken from her, and her elegant figure re morselessly wrapped in, a coarse check dress —the prison uniform—and she was removed to a still worse cell, It was very cold. For break fast she had bread and cold tea ; stuff they called sou p she had for dinner one day; potatoes and fat beef another day ; and gruel at night. Her mother offered, but was refused permission, to send in some small comforts to her daughter, who had Only recently recovered from rheumatic fever. In addition to these hardships, and to crown all, -she-was-submitted to the personal indignity of a most offensive private examination by a medical man, Although sen t ence d t o f our t een d a y s ' imprisonment, the Vice-Chancellor succeeded in finding out his mistake in the course of four days, and EMMA was again set free. She returned to her mother's house under the shadow of night, no doubt greatly af f ronted, if not also broken-hearted. It has been found wholly impossible to prove her guilty of any improper conduct, or even of any act of indiscretion other than such as is generally considered quite venial in the flirtations of a milli ner's girl. It has not been asserted in Court that there was any just ground for imprisoning the girl. The whole defence rested on the supposed rights of the Vice-Chancellor to commit on suspi cion, and on the non-liability to review of any sentence he may have pronounced. The jurisdiction of the Vice-Chancellor and Proctors of the University of Cambridge and the Institution of the Spinning-house are, no doubt, very ancient. Their functions hive been equally varied. Originally we are told that it was the duty of those gentlemen to see to the cleaning of the streets. Having forsaken the task of removing physical filth, they seem to have betaken themselves " with a will" to the scaven gering of moral impurities with a strength of besom which carries clean and unclean before it. Formerly it was part of their avocations to flog such of the students as might be detected publicly bathing in the classic waters of the Cam. From this laborious:undertaking they have in late days turned aside to inflict intolerable stigmas upon the fair reputation of females suspected of endeavouring to entrap the male residents at the University 'into impropriety. The morals of the gentlemen of Cambridge are evidently not to be trusted. Neither are their tendencies to err to be corrected or kept in check by the ordinary moral agencies considered sufficient in other communities, great or small, classical or not. In Edinburgh, the great Scotch seat of learning, where a scarcely less number of young men is assembled from all parts of the world, than meet and reside at Cambridge, the students require no such rough tutelage. In the smaller university cities of the north no inconvenience is felt from the want of proctors and spinning-houses. Nay, more ; we venture to say that the moral propriety of any Scotch university city will stand a most favourable comparison with that of either Oxford or Cambridge. We write not from hearsay or conjecture, but from the closest personal observa tion. How are we to explain this enigma ? We believe that the facts, when properly read, demonstrate a truth now gradually becoming more and more understood. Attempts at merely external repression of such a crime result in effects diametrically opposed to the object in view. Pruning the buds and branches only strengthens the roots, and prepares a fuller crop for a suc ceeding season. To remove or prevent such a moral evil we must strike underground and destroy the rootlets. We have had abundant illustration of this proposition in our own town. In lieu of a Vice-Chancellor and Proctors, we have had the society for the suppression of vice and the indiscriminate persecution, or, if you like, prosecu tion, of all interested in the unhallowed profits of " the social evil." What has been the conse quence ? A palpable aggravation of the mischief. Has not Major GREIG, the chief constable, by his carefully-prepared statistics, and accompany ing remarks, abundantly proved the truth of this assertion ? It may have consisted with the wis dom and enlightenment of the seventeenth cen tury to build spinning -houses, but we feel assured that the experience of upwards of two centuries has taught us the folly and inadequacy of such means to the end proposed. If spinning-houses are good for Oxford and Cambridge, why do we l i not have them elsewhere ? Why not also have a spinning-house in Liverpool ? Certainly there is a far greater field for its operations. We have an immensely larger community of young men, with perhaps an equally disproportioned amount of money and wits. Assuredly we have an alarmingly numerous class of frail ones ready to take advantage of the plenitude of one and the scarcity of the other. If common sense and practical experience tell us that spinning-houses and proctors are inadmissable, unjustifiable, and ineffective remedies here, what is there in Cambridge human nature to make thorn more likely to succeed in doing good ? Are they not mere cobwebs in a corner of an old house, which ancient privilege and long prescrip tion have alone saved from demolition before the brush of general progress and civilisation ? If so, let them now be swept away, as not only unnecessary, but mischievous. Such an institution is, moreover, an anomaly in the administration of justice. The case we have cited and the defence put forward, in support of the authority claimed, abundantly prove its exer cise to be utterly inconsistent with the proper freedom of the lieges, repugnant to common sense, and an insult to British justice and fair play. The Vice-Chancellor professed no regret for his mistake ; but, on the contrary, sottght to maintain his perfect right to do the same thing again under similar circumstances. Even were he successful in proving that by charter or pre scriptive right he was justifiable, we say such a state of matters is insufferable, and must be instantly reformed. Longer to tolerate such a nuisance, were to initiate a retrograde movement in the history of our individual liberties and freedom of action, and to afford a precedent to justify the introduction into this free country of the French loi de suspect —a mischievous enactment, the consequences of which were illustrated by the plaintiff's counsel, when he asked, " Were there not now thousands pining in the swamps of Cayenne, under the law of suspicion ? What was it that crowded the guillotine during the French Revolution, under the power of ROBESPIERRE, DAYTON, and others, but the right to arrest and execute on suspicion ? It was the law of suspicion that dyed the waters of the Rhone in the time of CARRIER, and it was the law of suspicion that had filled the prisons of Naples." We will have no such law in England. Away, therefore, with proctorial authorities and spin nin g-ho uses, INTERVIEW OF THE EMPRESS EUGENIE WITH THE DUCHESS OF SUTHERLAND. The -Duchess of Sutherland, the Mistress of the Robes, arrived in town on Saturday evening from Trentham, Staffordshire, by order, to meet the Empress Engenie at Windsor Castle. The Duchess, by a sin gular coincidence, met the Empress on Saturday while travelling on the Trent Valley line, and had an inter change of compliments. Before the Empress pursued her journey to Leamington, the Duchess of Sutherland had time to forward a basket of grapes to her Majesty culled from the vines at Trentham. DRE ADFUL COLLIERY EXPLOSION. MORE THAN 100 PERSONS SUPPOSED TO BE KILLED. &AC% VEIN COLLIERY, Saturday, Dec. 1, Another of those dread calamities which but too fre quently occur in the mining districts, notwithstanding the precautions taken in every direction by legistative enactment, and by measures strictly enforced, by the managers of collieries, happened this morning, striking, terror and dismay into a whole community, and in stantaneously depriving of life an appalling number of our fellow-creatures, hurried prematurely, without a moment's warning, whether prepared or unprepared— husbands, fathers, brothers, and sons—into eternity. The scene of this appalling calamity is the Black Vein Colliery, the property of the Risca Coal Company, and which has been in work some years, producing a large yield of steam coal. About five o'clock nearly 300 men descended to their dangerous, and, as it proved to many, fatal avocation. For some time nothing occurred to induce a supposition that anything unusual had taken place,—neither in reality had there ; but about nine o'clock, or shortly after that hour, a report was heard, ominous in character, from the mouth of the pit, creating instant alarm and intense anxiety upon all hands. Too well was such a dread signal understood ; and means were adopted with the utmost promptitude to ascertain the extent of the calamity. Harrowing, indeed, were the disclosures made of the destruction of human life. Here and there, by the glimmer of the miner's lamp, was to be seen stretched in the arms of death, a full-grown man or stalwart youth, struck down while in the full enjoyment of health. Then again, they stumbled upon horse and driver, both dead, and their laden tram beside them, a proof of the instantaneous nature of the blow which had fallen upon them. Some of the poor fellows were brought to the surface immediately upon being found, and the assistance of medical gentlemen, who were sum moned to the spot as soon as practicable after the explosion, was promptly and skilfully rendered. Death, however, had done his work too surely—human aid was of little avail. Ilp to twelve o'clock eleven bodies were brought up . to the top of the pit, and taken to the abodes of their relatives. At four o'clock no less than thirty-nine lay there. At that time, too, five carts with straw were drawn up out side the works, and a number of men were observed on their way to the spot with hastily-constructed biers, to convey away the bodies. All the horses in the pit, about eight and twenty, were killed. Many poor fellows appeared almost prostrated when they reached the sur face. All looked dejected, anxious, careworn. At the time named, between sixty and seventy persons remained unaccounted for. If all have fallen victims, the bodies brought up, with those still in the pit, found, and yet missing, will make the frightful total of above 120 fellow-creatures who have thus violently met their deaths. Of the precise cause of the accident, beyond the circumstance of its having arisen from fire-damp, it is quite impossible to speak with any degree of certainty. This evening the place presents a sad and sick en i ng scene. The deep mist overshadowing the hills surround ing the pit, the heavy rain , t he flitting of the m i ners ' lamps in going to and from the pit, the glare of the immense fire burning at the pits mouth, and reflected on the pale and anxious countenances of men, and of weeping and moaning women, all gathered together at the scene of desolation, contribute to foiforma picture of the deepest solemnity and most painful interest. REVIVAL MEETING IN EXETER-HALL. HORRIBLE BLASPHEMY ! HYMNS SUNG TO THE TUNE OF THE g, KING OF THE CANNIBAL ISLANDS!" On Sunday evening . a meeting of an extraordinary character w as held in E xe t er -h all. It had b een announced by means of advertisements and placards that Exeter-hall would be opened for a service to be conducted by three laymen, Mr. Reginald Radcliffe, Mr. Richard Weaver (who was formerly a prize fighter), and Mr. W illiam Carter. The promise wa s kept, and at six o'clock the doors were thrown open. In less than quarter of an hour, the spacious building was densely packed, and it was deemed advisable at once to close the outer gates. The proceedings were opened by prayer, in the course of which the Almighty was earnestly Implored to hold down his arm from heaven over London for the purpose of converting it, and espe cially for the purpose of checking Popery, priestcraft, Pu seyism and devilism. Mr. Carter read portions of the 6th chapter of St. Mark's Gospel, and in the course of a very energetic description of the efficacy of redemption assured his hearers that it was not to be secured by lighting IT a poor rotten cross or miserable crucifixes, not in going to churches with fine steeples, or listening to a lot of fellows with white night-gowns on. All these were miserable delusions. What was wanted was real conversion, the two classes in London who wanted it most being working men, ninety-eight out of every hundred of whom never went to a place of worship at all; and the unconverted nobility, many of whom were canting humbugs. Mr. Weaver followed, and from the excitement which prevailed immediately he arose it was evident that he was the principal object of attraction. He commenced by singing a hymn to the tune of the "King of the Cannibal Islands," in a very loud tone, the auditory taking up the chorus, the words being, " Still I have no union." He then took for his text the words, " Herein is love," &c:t from St. John's First Epistle. He called upon his hearers not to believe that the great scheme o f human redemption was moonshine and humbug ; but that, on the contrary, it was able to encircle and to convert the greatest blackguard in London. There were many ungodly persons in the hall who wanted shaking over hell for five or six minutes—if that did not convert them nothing would. As the speaker warmed with his subject, he danced up and down the plat form and shouted " hell and damnation" with a vigour which was perfectly appalling. Every now and then he denounced the unconverted ) then appealed to them to come to Christ, and in the roughest languages and with the most violent gesticulations called upori those who believed Christ had power to save to hold up their hands. About three-fourths of the audience did so ; " the contrary " was not put. During the proceedings several young women whose feelings were operated upon fainted, and were carried out. gr. Weaver afterwards sang another hymn—" I've a father in a promised land," to a lively air. Throughout the evening the audience were kept in the highest possible state of excitement; and at the close of the public ser vice a meeting of a quieter kind was held, for the reception of the unconverted. FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE• FRANCE. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, Dec. 3. A variety of contradictory rumours continue to circulate concerning the publication in a few clay's of an imperial manifesto, fixing, in a more precise manner than was done by the recent decree, the changes which have been thus effected in the French Constitution, and extending considerably the liberties and benefits, of which that decree con tains the germ. What strengthens the rumour is the fact that there was yesterday a special meeting of the Council of Alinisters, which the Emperor came up from Compiegne expressly to attend. The dissolution of the Corps Legislatif, and the convoking of the electors in the cornices with view to the election of new deputies, continues also to be a point much disputed. The Journal des Debats publishes, under the signature of M. Prevost-Paradol, a very energetic article, in which is set forth the reasons which not only suggest such a step, but render it absolutely indispensable, as a pledge of the scope and sincerity of the decree of Nov. 24. The Siecle, while entirely agreeing with the Debats as to the necessity Of appealing to the electors to choose new representa tives, considers that the convocation of the elec tors should be postponed until after the revision of the electoral list, which must be done in the month of January next. Nearly all the journals look upon a dissolution as a necessary conse quence, and as the natural accompaniment of a decree which affects the functions of the Corps Legislatif. The opposite view is only m et with, in terms more or less affirmative, in the semi-official press. The Constitutionnel asserts that there is no intention4whatever of dissolving the present assembly ; and according to another semi-official version, that step is only delayed until the session shall be a little advanced. Those Marshals who are at present entrusted with the great military commands have arrived in Paris, in order to take part in the labours of the commission for the classification of the officers of the French army. This commission meets to day at the Ministry of the War. Gen. Martini prey, who holds a command in Algeria analogous to that of the Marshals in France, has arrived here with the same object. Marshals Pelissier and Randon are at one in this matter, and among other changes the suppression of the general councils, in which the chief symptoms of opposi tion to the predominance of the military element are manifested, is seriously talked of. The new constitution having fixed that a senatus consulte shall regulate the destiny of Algeria, Gen. Allard has succeeded in preparing a projet, which was submitted yesterday to the Emperor. Whatever may be the fate of this project, it is certain that the news from Algeria, at the present moment, betrays a good deal of apprehension on the sub ject of the late decision of the Government re lating to this colony. What is wanted in Algeria is the inauguration of a system of conciliation between the civil and military elements, and this is scarcely the idea which is suggested by the appointment of Marshal Due de Malakoff as head of the government of French Africa. The financial world has been much moved by the notice of M. Rothschild, that for the want of the necessary funds, he cannot pay the half yearly dividend on the Roman loan, due on the first of this month. The Holy Father pleads the loss of his principal provinces as the reason for the failure of his government to discharge its obligations ; and, on the other hand, the creditors ask why Pius IX. does not close with the offer of Piedmont, to take upon it all the debts of the Papal Government, provided the latter agree to recognise the substitution of that government for its own, in all time coming. At length, therefore, the Holy Father finds himself exposed to pecu niary pressure in a very aggravated and annoying form, in addition to all his other sources of discomfort. Notwithstanding the prospects of peace in the Western World, the works for the development of the French navy, as regards materiel, continue to be incessantly prosecuted, and the well-knows o saying, "if you wish for peace, prepare for war," is still the ruling idea. Several new floating batteries have been finished, and three new euirassed frigates, on the model of La Gloire, are being constructed as fast as possible. It is related that on the occasion of a visit paid by the Emperor to this frigate at Toulon, he asked the engineer by whom she had been built, how many more of the same could be built in the course of $ year. "We might make ten," replied the engl; neer. " You might ma k e t wen ty, if necessa ry, said the Emperor. This flattering reply, which circulates throughout all the dockyards, is quoted as a proof of the confidence of the Emperor in the skill of the directors of French naval ship building. The day before yesterday, a person having the appearance of a gentleman entered the office of money-changer in the Palais Royal, and asked for gold for two Bank notes—one for £2OO, and the other for £3OO sterling. It so happened , however, that the numbers of these notes, which had been stolen, had been sent to all the money changers of Paris and London, in order to put them on their guard against giving change for them, and with directions to communicate with the police in the event of their being presented for exchange. The money-changer, suspecting that the " gentleman" was himself the party wh o had stolen the notes, made a pretence to detain the stranger for a few minutes, whilst one of his clerks went in all haste to give notice to the com missioner of the Palais Royal district. The clerk soon returned, accompanied by a policeman, wh o took the "gentleman" into custody, and con ducted him to the police-office. The Englishman —for he was one of our countrymen—exclaime d loudly against the way in which he was treated. He asserted that the bank notes in his posses" sion were gained by him at play, and that h° knew nothing whatever of the party from whon l , he got them. But it was soon ascertained th at this individual was the very rogue for whom th e police were in search, and who had got possession, under false names, of some large sums of money' In the last place in which he figured he mod e himself pass for a diamond merchant, from LOT don, whose portfolio and passport he had stolen' THE NEW CEMETERY.—The competitive designs an d drawings for the chapels, lodges, and other erections necessary for the new cemetery of Anfield P ark, sre open this week for public inspection at Cuthbert's pic ture galleries, Clayton-square.

Blair, occupying the whole of the day u ntil nearl y nine at night. However, nothing of any great importance transpired.
