THE WEEKLY PRESS.

The Saturday Review assumes that the objections
to the new oompoundhouseholding clauses are as obvious
to Mr. Disraeli as to everyone else ; but some of the faith-
ful creatures he is managing want to have two looks at the
mile-stone. They like to shy a little, if it were only in
memory of the days when they ran wild and untrained on
the free heights of toryism. The house will know how to
accommodate him, and will strike this absurd clause out
for him, and then he will bow to the will of parliament,
and the mile-stone will be safely passed and everybody
will be happy.

The BairWiner will not lightly forego the hope that upon
further reflection ministers will hold to the sound, and
drop the unsound portion of their new propositions. If
they will only adhere to that which carries into effect the
abrogation of the present compounding system, they may
reckon on the support of en overwhelming majority in
parliament and upon the grateful applause of still more
overwhelming preponderance of opinion out of doors.
There are too many men on both sides eager to clutch at
any pretext for slamming the half-opened door in the face
of the people. If we cared only for party we should stand
by and silently wait for the perpetration of No fearful and
fatal a blunder—fatal because it would wreck all claim to
public confidence in publ a men—fearful because it would
justify and necessitate the outburst of new and perilous
agitation.
Strongly condemning the reported resolve of the cabinet
to execute the Fenians, Burke and M'Cafferty, the Exa-
miner remarks that it is a bad beginning for Mr. Hardy,
by whose hand the at of death must be sent to Lord Aber-
corn. Should this execution take place, it will put us
back fifty years, and place us in the category of govern-
ments below that of France, America. and Italy. It is
only in Rennin and in Spain that political prisoners made
during a sedition are now objects of sanguinary vengeance.
Is it possible to save us from this ignominy?

TO THE EDITOR OF THE EXPRESS.

you be good enough to inform the
public that arrangements have been made with the
Telegraph Construction and Maintenance Company
for the immediate repair of the injury done to the
Atlantic Cable of 1865. A vessel will be specially
despatched, and will leave the Thames within ten
days from this date, and as the point of injury is
known to be within two miles of the land at
Heart's Content, as now confirmed by Mr. Wil-
loughby Smith, sent to Valentia for the purpose of
verifying the previous testa, there is no reason to
doubt that by the 15th of next month the cable
will be restored to its former perfect condition.

SPEECH FROM THE THRORE.

VIENNA, MAT V.

In opening the Reichsrath to-day the Emperor
delivered a speech, in which he referred to the
recognition which he had made of the constitu-
tional rights of Hungary, and which secured to the
empire the development of its liberties and the en-
joyment of peace, imparting to it also new power in
its international relations. His imperial Majesty
trusted the Reichsrath would co-operate with him
in preserving the arrangements that had been
made. The financial want of the year had
been covered in a satisfactory manner. The
speech concluded with an appeal to the Assem-
bly to throw the veil of forgetfulness over the past,
and to look with confidence to the future.

MONEY MARKET.-(THIS DAY.)

thrl O'CLOOL.

The attendance of members of the Stock Ex-
change is larger than is usual on a Derby-day, the
doubtful state of the weather having tended to
keep many persons away from Epsom. The transac-
tions in the stock markets have consisted chiefly
of sales, and the public refraining from giving
much support to prices, a reduction has occured in
many instances. The English funds have declined
a to I per cent., and most of the chief home rail-
ways ito a. Foreign Bonds, however, are mostly
well supported. American stocks are dull, and as
regards most other classes of securities there is
likewise an entire absence of animation.

The discount market is quiet. The rate for good
bills remains at 2/ per cent. In the Stock Exchange
the rate for short loans on English Government
securities is 2 per cent.

Consols are now quoted 94 to 93, with div.,
for money, and 91f to ~ ex div., for the ac-
count (June 6).

The India Five per Cent. stock is about i lower,
at 112 to it.

The government brokers have not yet resumed
their purchases for the National Debt Commis-
sioners.

Foreign stocks are generally firm. Greek and
Turkish 5 per cents. of 1865 have improved per
cent., while most other stocks in this depart-
ment remain at yesterday afternoon's rates.
Turkish Five per Cents. of 1865 are quoted 31}
to 32 ; ditto Six per Cents., 1862, 55 to 56 ; Greek,
14} to 15 ; Spanish Passive, 2211 to g ; ditto Cer-
tificates, 141 to ; Italian of 1861, 52 to i; Mexi-
can, 171 to #.

American securities are dull. The 5-20 Bonds
are k to k per cent. lower, at 720 to k ; Erie Rail-
way shares are quoted 42 to ; and Illinois Cen-
tral, 76 to 77.

In financial shares there is no change, beyond a

FATAL AFTRAY AT WHITECHAPEL.—MT. John
Humphreys, coroner, held an inquest last night on the
body of a carman, named Charles Crockett. It appears
that the deceased was in the Whitechepel-reed on Monday
night, when be was knocked down in a quarrel with some
foreigners, and stabbed through the head. He was con-
veyed to the London Hospital, when Mr. Adams, the
house-surgeon, found that he bad received a severe stab
wound in the scalp, in which was the part of • blade of a
steel knife, but before a magistrate meld be sent for to
take his deposition the unfortunate man expired. A
verdict of " -Wilful murder against some persons to the
jurors unknown," was reemded. It is stated that the
police have suspicions as to who the guilty parties are,
and that an arrest of them may shortly be expected.

TO THE !EDITOR or THB REPRO&

Six,—Consia;ralit;--aurPrise and indignation
having been expressed, both in the public journals
and in private correspondence, with reference to
the alleged withholding of information from the
shareholders relative to the injury to the shore end
of the cable of 1866, a knowledge of which is
assumed to have been unnecessarily kept back by
the management, I am instructed by my directors
to inform you that neither of the cables are at
present in any way under the control or superin-
tendence of the Atlantic Telegraph Company, and
that the brat intelligence received by the directors
or officers of that company as to the damage to the
shore end of the cable of 1861 i reached them during
the sitting of the board at 3 p.m. on Friday, the
17th inst., in the shape of a rumour from the Stock
Exchange, which on inquiry afterwards was found
to be correct.—l am, &c.,

ASSAULT ON THY. POLICE BT A SOLICITOR.

Mr JoAn Francis Wu/Ivr,agea 42, described as •
solicitor of :10, Coberry•street, St. Bride's, was charged
with being,drunk and assaulting William Collins, police-
constable •29 Y, whilst in the execution of his duty.
It appeared from the evidence that, about 12 o'clock on
Tuesday night, there was a disturbance in the Caledonian-
road, which the constable tried to suppress ; the prisoner
was there, and was drunk. On being told to go away, he
struck the complainant on the lip and cut it open, and
also seised his band sod knocked the skin off his knuckles.
He was then taken into custody, and he resisted so vio-
lently that it was with great difficulty that he was taken
to the station.

THE LE JET:NES.

These clever youths have lately been attracting
much attention in the musical world by their performances
of the great organ works of Bach. On various oce,doni,
among others at St. Paul's Cathedral, their playing has
elicited the admiration and surprise of some of our best
professors. So much interest has been excited by the
talent of these youths that • public exhibition of their
powers was arranged to take place, and took place ac-
cordingly, at Exeter-hall on Monday night. The two
young Le Jenne', Arthur and Charles, whose respective
ages are 12 and hi, each play the most difficult pre-
ludes and fugues of Bach, mostly from memory. These
works, generally written in three lines—that is, with an in-
dependent part for the pedals—form the ultimatum of the
art of orgnn•playing, as they also stand alone as being the
most elaborate and sublime of all compositions for the
instrument. The performances last night comprised
several of these difficult pieces by each of the brothers—
among others the celebrated peda. fugue by Bach, in E
flat, known as the " St. Anne's fugue," from the resem-
blance of the first two bars of the theme to the com-
mencing phrase of the psalm tune called Mt Anne's.
In his execution of this Charles Le Jeans dis-
played a command both of the manuals and the
pedals roost surprising in so young • performer.
Arthur also exhibited by his performances a remarkable
facility in wielding the resources of that leviathan of in-
struments, the organ. In a transcription of Handel's
chorus, " But the waters overwhelmed them," his dex-
terous use of the pedals was shown by hie clever execution
of the triplet base which runs throughout that movement.
The two brothers also executed various pianoforte pieces,
solos and duets—and their performances excited great in-
terest and loud applause from the large audience which
crowded Exeter-hall, among whom we recognised many
well-known organist..

PORTSMOUTH, Mar 21.
The Dana°, one of the Amazon clam of screw
gunboats, was launched from Portsmouth Dockyard this
morning, in the presence of a large concourse of specter.
tors. This vessels a wooden sloop of 1,268 tons burthen
and 350-horse power. Her length between perpendiculars
is 212 ft. ; length for tonnage, 185 ft. 8 in. ; extreme
breadth, 36 ft. ; breadth for tonnage, 35 ft. 10in.; breadth
moulded, 35 ft. 2 in. ; depth in hold, 19ft. 4 in. Her
armament, according to present arrangements, will consist
of four guns two of them weighing 6j tons, and the
other two being 68-pounders muzzle breeeh•leaden. The
Denise is built with a projecting prow the stem
falling in-board from the water-line —to give her
greater buoyancy forward, and some improvement
in her bow has been made to enable her to
obtain a greater speed than the Amazon, which did not,
under steam alone, realise more than 121 knot.. The
ceremony of christening the vessel was performed by Mrs.
Wellesley the wife of the rear-admiral superintendent
of the dockyard, and the launch was completely success.
fuL The Dance is to be docked immediately, and brought
forward for sea service.

The Nile, hired sailing transport, arrived at Spithead
this afternoon from Calcutta, with military invalids and
time-expired men. The former will to-morrow be trans-
ferred to the Royal Victoria Hospital at Netley, and the
latter will be sent to their respective depots.

(Before the Common Serjesnt.)

William Price, 26, and JoAn Sibley, 31, who had bud
session pleaded guilty to an indictment for burglary, and
upon whom the judgment of the court had been respited
for inquiries, were now brought up for judgment.
Former convictions were proved against them, and it was
further shown that they formed part of a gang who hod
committed extensive burglarious depredations in Brixton
and other parts of the county of Surrey.
The Common Serjeant sentenced Sibley to seven and
Prior to five years' penal servitude.
William Smithers, 36, described as a mariner, and wear-
ing the attire of an officer of the mercantile marine, was
indicted for feloniously stealing three 101. Bank of ng-
land notes, three W. Bank notes, a purse, three sovereigns,
and nine postage stamps, from the person of Mr. N.
Barron. In • second count he was charged with felo-
niously receiving the property, well knowing the same to
have been stolen.

Mr. Straight conducted the prosecution, and Mr. Mon-
tagu
ie Williams defended the prisoner.

mentof Fusiliers, which at the time of the robbery was
stationed at Aldenhot. On the 7th June last he was in
London, and drew a cheque on his bankers, the National
Bank, in Old Cavendish-street, and received among others
the notes in question, which he placed in his parse. The
same evening, accompanied by his wife, he attended the
performances at the Italian Opera, Covent-garden, and
after the performances were over he went out to secure a
cab, and at that time the pane and its contents were safe.
He drove to the Brunswick Hotel, Jermyn.street, where
hie wife alighted. and then be proceeded to his club,
where he discovered that his purse was gone. The nest

and stopped the payment of the notes. The acme morning
namely, the Bth June, the prisoner about 12 o'clock ten-
dered one of the IW. notes to Mr. Croker, a hatter, in

Cannon-street, City, in payment for a felt hat and an
alpaca umbrella, and Mr. Croker sent out an assistant
named Todhunter with the note to get change. Todhun-
ter proceeded with it to the Bank of England, where it was
stopped, and an officer sent back with Todhunter to his
employer's shop, where the prisoner was still waiting.
When interrogated the prisoner at first said he had
got the 10/. note in part change for one of 1001.
somewhere ou Tower-hill, but where there he could not
say, and secondly he stated that he had bought it with
other notes for 501. from a friend.
The jury found the prisoner Guilty of receiving the
notes, knowing them to have been stolen, and
The Common-Serjeant meatioced him to 18 months' im-

Bedford-square, who states that he was looking at his
watch by the gas-light of a tavern in Oxford-street, at
about half-pant 10 o'clock on the evening of July 1, when
his watch was snatched out of his band by a young man
of about 20, who escaped with it and the beat part of his
chain, which was snapped in two. During the night a
" presentiment" came to him (Mr. Garroway) while he was
in bed in consequence of which he went straight to the
shop of the defendant the next morning, and found his
watch, as he expecte I, in defendant's possession. It
was lying on his counter, and defendant said be had bought
it about an hour before, as a worn out watch for 295. 6d., of

THE LATE MR. SCHOLEFIELD.

late Mr. Scholetield, a petition from Birmingham, most
numerously signed, against the Sunday Trading Bill, took
that opportunity of alludi • to the melancholy event
which had so sudden y A eprn•ed the House of Commons
of a valuable member. Ho was sure that the house
would join him in the deep regret be felt for the less of
one who was equally remarkable for his personal amiability
of character, Ids assidurrur !retention to his parliamentary
duties, his unswerving devotion to his political principles,
and his conciliatory demeanour towards everyone with
whom he came in contact. Ad the senior member of the
district of which the late Mr. Scholefield's constituency
formed so important a portion he (Mr. Newdegate) felt
that he was only performing an act of duty in offering this

with tokens of marked approbation from both sides of the
house.)

the basis of a liberal compromise, and commented
upon the instructions which had been given to Sig-
nors Vegozai and Tonello and the intentions of the
Riess°li Ministry relative to the negotiations with

DEBATE ON MEXICO IN THE FRENCH

CHAMBER.
PARIS, Jr LT 9, EVENIIIO.
In to-day's sitting of the Legislative Body the
Mexican question was discussed. M. Thiele said :
—"The Mexican expedition has ended without
any good results to France. Our compatriots re-
main exposed to greater losses than ever ; our
commerce with Mexico is ruined, and the pres-
tige of our greatness is compromised in America.
Even in Europe the Mexican imbroglio has ham-
pered our attitude towards the great revolution
accomplished in Germany. The lesson of this
unhappy expedition is that control and opposition
are necessary. The Mexican expedition was ap-
proved by no one in France, but was neverthe-
less undertaken and continued for several years.
There are two ways of understanding mo-
narchical government. The first is the rule
of a prince with irresponsible ministers, who
merely execute the orders they receive. The
second is a prince governing with responsible
ministers, who have to submit their views to him
as the head of the state, and can, if necessary, lean
upon a representative assembly, which is able to
oppose the ministers, both, however, dependent
upon public opinion. This is the form of monanhy
towards which we must advance as speedily
as possible in the interest of the govern-
ment and the country." Perfect stillness pre-
vailed in the chamber during this speech.
M. Granier de Casaagnac defended the Mexican
expedition. M. Jules Fevre stated that the real
idea of the expedition was the subversion of the
Mexican republic, and the establishment of a throne
in Mexico, but this intention had been concealed
by the government. The French troops ought to
have brought back Maximilian, and thus have
saved France from the stain of blood which will
rest upon her. (Noisy interruptions.) M. Rouher
protested strongly against the words of M. Fevre.

MARK-LANE.—(THIS DAY.)
The attendance of millers at to-day's market was limited.
The supply of home-grown wheat on sale was only mode-
rate, but in fair average condition. All descriptions were
difficult to sell, at barely Monday's quotations.
There was a tolerably good show of foreign wheat on the
stands. Millers showed but little disposition to purchase.
The trade consequently was dull, on former terms.
The demand for floating cargoes ot grain ruled steady, at
prices about equal to last week.
Moderate supplies of barley were on wile. Fine malting
parcels realised full prices. ()therwise the trade was dull.
Malt moved off slowly, at previous quotations.
In oats sales proi.ressed steadily, and the late 'mines*.
ment was maintained.

No change took place in the value of beans, the trams&

THE BISHOP OF VERMONT.

The Daily New gives an account of a singular corres-
pondence which has been published in America between
Dr. Hopkins, Bishop of Vermont, and the Dean of West-
minster—a correspondence which took place at the time of
the meeting of the Pan-Anglican Synod. It seems that
Dean Stanley explained to the bishop that he
was particularly anxious to show every courtesy
to the bishops from the United States and that
it was chiefly on their account he had offered the
abbey for some service, Independent of the synod, which
should gather them there. To the generous and gracious
letter of the dean, Bishop Hopkins responded in a long
and angry epistle in which he rated the dean upon his
conduct, and condemned the portions of the ecclesiss-
tical system which gave to the deans such power.
The Daily News says the letter is only carious
as it suggests the question what can have possessed a
foreign ecclesiastic with the notion that he is entitled to
lecture our clergy, whose position and rights are defined
by law, upon their duties ? Even if an unfair advantage
might be taken of Dean Stanley's courtesy, Dean Milman,
who is also attacked, had written no letter, nor had any-
one submitted the system of the church of England to
Dr. Hopkins for revision. The church principles which
this learned divine so freely lays down, may be very good
in Vermont or elsewhere, bat they have no authority here.
The present case, however, is very clear. The Pan-Anglican
idea has completely turned Dr. Hopkins's head. In the
Lambeth meeting, private and unauthorised as it was, he
fancied he saw the parliament which wail henceforth to
govern the whole Anglican church with absolute and un-
questioned power, and his impatience when Dean Stanley's
letter reminded him of the existence of another law than
the resolutions of bishops proved too much for him. This
is the excuse for what would otherwise have been a
grave impertinence. The mistake in his case is of no con-
sequence ; but it reminds us that similar illusions may
prevail nearer home, and that the recovery from them
might be painful.
