The Thabor arrived at Marseilles this morning,
bringing advice, from the Crimea to July 23. The Golden
Fleece has arrived trona Hamieseh. There an 100 invalids
OD board the Thabor.

The fares from London to Paris by the through
trains, Ma Boulogne, are raised frcm 21. 11s. Gl. first clue,
and 11. Ws. second, to 21. 13s. Gl. and 11. 184. 6d. This
measure has excited some surprise and • good deal of dis-
satisfaction at Paris. It was rather thought that a reduc-
tion would be made at the time of the Queen's visit. The
directcn, however, say that as the French Government
has thought fit to Wigan a tax upon railway travelling, the
public must pay it at once in the shape of increased fans.

The Aztecs, who have met with extraordinary
success in Peril., are now exhibiting every evening at the
Hotel d'Osmont, "Cercle de IT:position." Our Paris
correspondent writes :—" The French Government has re-
ceived informs•.ion which leads to the suspicion that they
have been stolen from their parents. Within the last three
days two Commissaries of Police in plain clothes nooompany
them wh they go, end have signified to the showman
that he cannot be permitted to remove them from surveil-
lona."

ANOTHER BURGLART.—This morniog considera-
ble sensation was created in the City, in consequence of
a third eatective robbery of silk having been committed.
Police constable Humphreys on (ling his rounds about sir
o'clock, observed a skein of raw silk lying on the pavement
opposite the door of Mr. William Sanderson, silk menu
lecturer, 7, Ores .am-street, City. But a few minutes
before be had tried the door of the house, sad found it
quite secure. On entering the premises, which were under
repair, a large hole was found cut through • sheet of glass
in the sky-light of the warehouse, and two
stools, to which was tied • rope, were let
into the warehouse with knots about a yard apish
Although some portions reside in the house, not Me
slightest noise was heard. Mr. Inspector Mitchell and fist
pant Sheppard ire most actively ugsged in ins/safeties
the robbery. Little doubt is entertained bat that it was
effected by the gang who broke into Messrs. Deane and Co.'s,
and Mr. Barber's. The jewellers and Manchester warehouse-
men are now determined to have persons sleep in their were-
houses armed, in misestimate of the formidable gang of
burglars infesting the city.
SUICIDE OF A FESULL—A determined act of
self-destruction was committed this day by a female named
Honorab Denovan, aged 66 years, of Crown-court, St
John's, Wapping. The deceased had been suffering from
bodily infirmity for some months put, and while sitting at
breakfast with. her husband, she suddenly drew a razor
hem her poe•et, sod exclaimed, "This will do use good."
She direcay afterwards inflicted a severe gash in the front
of her stork, dividing the main artery of her throat. She
was ernveyed to the infirmary of Wapping workhouse,
where; Mr. Buller, the surgeea, dressed the wound, but
she gradually sank and died from severe lose of blood. The
bed awaits an inquest.

War has given notice that William Burns, a private in the
End Battalion of the Rifle Brigade, deserted from his regi.
ment before Sebastopol an the 14th July, and Is supposed to
have peeped over to the enemy. The authorities of his
native place (Argyle) have been informed of the fact. This

A very favourable augury with reference to our
important trade with the United States is drawn
from the complexion of the last advicen from that
country, which report greatly diminished stocks of
British manufactured goods. In view of the splendid
harvest now secured in the United States, a brisk
trade between the two countries is anticipated.

This return is evidently influenced in several
points by the French loan, which has stimulated the
demand far money. The decrease in the private
deposits, and increase in the " seven day and other
bills," are both unusually heavy. The bullion con-
tinues to decline. The increase in the Treasury
balances is satisfactory, but the disposition lately
shown by importers to make payments of the duties
on certain articles of produce in the apprehension of
an increase in the rates, is calculated to cause an
exceptional addition to this item.
