VENICE.

A Venice letter of the 18th gays :
The Venire Gazette publishes an edict by which 30 per.
sons, who had gone abroad, are ordered to return to Austria
within four months, under pain of incurring the penalties
imposed by the law of March 24, 1832. That measure,
promulgated byFrancia 1., provides that those who emigrate
without authorisation, and are found guilty of emigration, ain
neither buy nor sell any property in the Austrian States, nor be
allowed to enjoy nuy inheritance, even accruing from a will
made before the enactment of this law, and are deprived of
all their goods, which are to remain sequestered as long as
as they live. These measures are scarcely leas severe for
emigrants' eons mid descendants 'oho remain in Austria, as
they are only allowed to receive just enough of the income
of the sequestered property for their education and actual
wants. This list of .30 individuals presents a strange diver-
sity of names and conditions. Names of historic fame stand
side by lido with those of tradesmen, landowners, and
farmers, professors and students, merchants and lawyers,
physicians and artisans.

vest a sum of 1,71391. Some alterations of the rules were

tributions to the building fund. The report of the ladies'
committee stated that there were at present 62 girls in the
Home ; 22 bad left during the year, 10 were admitted by elec-
tion, and two from the Royal Patriotic Fund Commimini.

HOP LYTELLIOENCE.

The recent favourable change in the weather has
canted an improvement in those (roulade wham there pre-
viously existed env promise of hops. Where the plants,-
tarns appeared to be blighted the warm senehine has moo
pleted the work ..f destructior. In • few favoured locali-
ties it is expeuted thut the yield may be a 2 or 3 cwt. per
acre. In others the produce will scarcely be worth pickieg,
and in some grounds it is said will be left, absolutely to their
fate, es past doing anything with. There are, nevertheless,
a sprinkle of hope in two or three districts, where the
ground, are looking well, considering the year, and one of
the most fortunate appears to be about Halstead, neer
Westerham, where, however, the best plantations an not
reckoned on to yield more than 3or 4 cwt. per acre. The
reports from all parte of the county are so similar In their
purport that it would be tautology to repeat them. So
in Feet Kent the general err is that the fine weather has
arrived too late for the hop grounds, many of which are past
all hope, especially the " Winer' grounds where the few
hope that seemed to be growing are dying away, and will not
be worth gathering. With regard to the best plantations,
the hops do not grow but shrivel up ; sad in most of them
there se mould, with an abundance still of vermin. An
average of a bag per acre will be the outside yield. In
Sussex and Surrey the hope have grown, although but
slightly, since our last. Os some grunials the CAY is ile-
cidedly worse, and the best are more unpromising than for
many masons past. Where the burr has advanced at all, it
is coming into hop, and is mostly Gleam. Small well shel-
tered plantation seem the only ones that offer a prospect
of cropping; in the rest there will scarcely be anything. In
Farnham, Alton, and the country districts, the plantations
are decidedly worse than last week., and we sow despair of
getting 3,003 f. duty for the district. —Scutt Eastern

The bankrupt wee a leather factor, of Kidderminster
and Bewdley. This failure followed close upon that of
Strtatfeild and Co., when Clarke petitioned the court at Bir-
mingham under the arrangement clauses, and was lam,
wards made bankrupt. The proceedings were subsequently
transferred to this court.
This was the examination meeting. No accounts had
been filed, but it it stated that the bankrupt's liabilities
amount to 66,0001., while the assets will be something bir
tween 10,0001. and 20,000/.
Mr. blorray, for the easignees, required to know why the
accounts had not been bled.
The bankrupt, in examination, said he did not know
why the accounts had not been died. He had taken
a great deal of trouble to get them ready.
The accountant, Mr. Chandler, would explain. Had stopped
payment on the 6th of June, and was made bankrupt on
the 17th of August. Had paid money to several persons
since the 30th of June, but had accounted for it all. Had
closed his account with his bankers (the Worcester City
land County Bank) on the 2nd of July, or it might be
1 the 3rd. Took an account of his stock after he had
stopped, assisted by Mr. Moore. Another account was
taken under the authority of the Birmingham Court. Two '
men were put In possession by the messenger. One was
always there until the inventory was taken. He knew of
no property afterwards ggooiinng out of his warehouses or store-
rooms. He was particularly careful as to that. There was
also some one in possession till the Birmingham
messenger was removed by the one from that court The
inventory produced was taken by Mr. Court. It was in his
handwriting. Did not know whether it contained the
whole of the stock. Three men had been committed for
trial at the next Worcester maims, on a charge of stealing
his property. One of them was Derby, his foreman. He
had been continued in employment under the authority of
the court.
Mr. Charles Eaton, auctioneer, Chiswell-etreet, deposed
that he had taken a subsequent inventory about the Bth or
9th October, end on comparing it with a former one found •
deficiency of goods (which he pointed out) to the amount of
about 6001.

RECONSTRUCTION OF THE NATIONAL BOARD

OF EDUCATION.

(From the Dublin Evening Post.)

DUBLIN, Tcsistur ETEmbrc.

From the annount..*mmt made by Mr. Card-
well, the chief secretary, towards the oloae of
last session, the public were prepared for the re•

construction of the National Board. Greet interest
and anxiety bad been felt sIS to the new appaintmentd,
by which the equalisation of protestants and catholic& pro-
mised by the government would be accomplished. We
have heard that the arrangements are not yet completed.
but we have reason to believe that rumours which have been
prevalent u to certain of the ►ppointments are well founded.
It is said that Sir Thos. Bediogton, the Right Hon. John
Hatchell, end Mr. James ()Terrell, retire from the board.
and that Lord Dunraven will take the plwa of Sir Monis.
!Winston ; Mr. Waldron, aL, M.P., that of Mr.
James O'Farrell, and Mr. Serjeant lAwson that of
Mr. Hatchell. The additional ►ppointments are—Cbief
Justice Monahan, Chief Baron Pigot, Mr. John Leutaisoe,
D.L., and Mr. John (Megan. We hear that there will be
an additional presbyterian appointment, to complete the
protestant representation of the board.

NAPLES.

A Turin letter of the 16th, in the anistitutionnel,
1111y8 :

I am informed that very important measures were
adopted is two long sittings of the Council of
Ministers held lately, and at which wore pre-
sent MM. Mancini, Maasari, Cordova, and some
other political personages of Southern Italy, who left
Naples immediately after. It it said to have been resolved
that, as soon as Victor Emmanuel advances to Naples, anew
provisional government, with IL Parini at its head as
dictator, will be appointed there, with a ministry, the
formation of which will be confided to M. Mancini. That
government, as woe as the work of annexation shall have
been accomplished, is to retire, and will be succeeded by
as administration ommesed of a civil governor, in the per-
uses of the Marquis de VilLuaarina, and a military governor,
General de Is Mariner& At the same time the title of
prince and the rank of general in the army is to be offered
to Garibaldi, but this would most probably be merely a
formality, as it is likely the Dictator would decline the
offer. It was also decided, it is said, that Count Cavour
should immediately join the King in order to accompany his
Majesty in his solemn entry into !Sepia,. I have also been
assured that the President of the Council has himself an•
=mead to some of his friends in the Chamber that he
should take his derartore towards the end of the week.

DOW-IffAEET,

Jose and Aferporet Betsey (sistrril, Pore* Amen, and
George Wak, were charged with highway robbery. All the
prisoners were under fifteen year" of age.
Anne Willis, a respectable looking young woman, stated
—I live in Bromilomstreet, Drary-lane. Last night, at
about eight o'clock, I wee in Endell-street, when the pri-
soners surrounded me, and lifted the skirts of my dross and
petticoats in a very rude manner. I told them not to do
It ; but they repeated it, and when I said I should give
them into custody, they all swanked me. Jane Barmy
struck me in the face, and the others struck me about the
bead and chest. They tore off my bonnet, which I lost, u
well es my brooch and white lace collar.
Pohce.constable Granger, 120 F—l was on duty at the
station-house when the prceecutrix came there, and com-
plained that she had been robbed and assaulted in Endell-
street by four children ; a little boy, who had aocmopanied
her to the station-house, gave me the WWI and addresses
of the prisoners. On the landing of the Busesys (who live
with their parents in Short's gardwd I found the pressen-
tries bonnet. The brooch and collar are not found.

Mr. Onside—This is certainly a very singular case. Are
the children's parents here ?
The Otlicer—Yes, sir ; allot them.
The father of the two girls Hussey said he was a aster.
monger. His children should not 'unbolts out so late, but
that he himself was away from home. He understood the
fact to be that the prcescutrix had a rather large crinoline,
and the children had been rude enough to make fan of her
on that account. This led to a little exhibition of temper,
and "from words they cams to blows." He believed that
Hiss Willis had the bonnet of one of his girls, the exchange
having been purely accidental.
Hiss Willis admitted that she went to the station in •
bonnet which had since been claimed by Jana Hussey, who
DOW had it on.
The parents of the other prisoners gave every satisfactory
amount of them and of thimiselvea They seemed to be
decent, poor people.
Jane Hussey being asked what she had to say about the
assault, begged Hiss Willis's pardon, but the others main-
tained that the prosecutriz was the riginal awessor.
Mr. Come—This case looked very formidable on the
charge-sheet • highway robbery by four persons! I believe
you insulted this lady, by talkie( about her crinoline and
palling at her skirts, and when she remonstrated you
assaulted her; but I don't think there was any intention of
robbing her. Still, your conduct was very rude, and you
must be punished. ik'sy 2s. 6d. each, or be imprisoned Ave

The fines were paid.

THE DRAMA.

' • Mr. Sheridan Knon lea's play of the Love Chan
has been produeed at this theatre for the repo.° of intro-
ducing Mies Gougenteim as Constance, and its production bar
stamped this young lady as decidedly the best actress 61
! high comedy now untie London stags.
This in itsklf is not very high praise, but oar laudation of
'Mies Gengenheim requires very little qualification : she has
brans, she is no taught poppet, but seems to understand
what she is endeavouring to paurtray, and to its execution
she brings great animal spirits, dub, and terve. The fa-
vourite "bits" of the part, the description of the chaise, and
the raillery of Wildrske about the " Widow Jones," were
given veil math a the 'minnow of Mrs. Niabett (though
Mies Gongenhein and have quitted England when too
young to medal herself on Ler famous predecessor), and
elicited mere than eyes the customary applanee ; we do not,
bower, judge from these fancy passages alone, but from
the general auk team of her acting, and ere 'congratulate
the public on their groat acquisition. This comedy of the
Lore Chase—anreal, as it is in plot, and stilted and union-
tarsi ea is its bastard Elizabethan dialogue, filled with au-
ichronisma, and hearing the we relation to the poetry of the
old dramatiiite as does a Wardourstreet chiffonniere to •
Louis Quin se cabinet—is worth seeing at the Lyoeum
from tipi excellent manner in which all its characters are
'filled. Mrs. Keeley initiated her first appearance in a new
' line of chi:rider, by her performance of Widow Green, and
yed in the, soundest, mut unctuons, most artistic
. Mr. George Vining made a good Wildnake, though
h little wanting in spiris. Mr. T. Lyon gave if
' Nub • novel at all evente a eery correct sad estisfastory
resift of Sir William Fondles*, and Mr. Henry Neville s
acting as Master Waller sou thoroughly gentlemanly and
effective. Nor must we omit • word of earnest esecerage-
mud te MIN Kate Ravine, who, is ladylike ussietuning
elssiontses, which are always important though seldom
prominent, has no wrier on the London stage.

PRUSSIA.

A Berlin letter says :
The commercial crisis of 1867 has left sad traipse, which
are Mill praeptable in the industrial movement of Germany.
The tacWtisa of credit which had been Witted till then by
our great bthking- houses to manufacturers and merchants
have been succeeded by a general feeling of distrust,
so that oar principal bankers show extreme reserve in
advaatiag money ea commercial simarttlia. The result la
that German Meaty is at this nionosiat solissing from mot
of capital. Merchants have already been compelled to
restrict their dealings with America and other foreign
orienttriss, which have usually been conducted on
very long credit. Moreover, the number of corn-
nterolsi bills In dreulation, either accepted or en-
dorsed by bankers, has diminished to such an intact that
the discount beaks, which are numerous in Germany, have
Is some time peat bees unable to transact their usual amount
of booing's. All through Germany the rate of discount is
very low, sad yet very little first-rate paper I. offered. An
important part of the war indemnity which Germany ob-
tained in 1816 was assigned to the Diet of Frankfort to meet
say occasions of extraordinary expenditure required on ac-
count of the Germanic Confederation. MM. de RothachEd,
of Frankfort, with whom the money was deposited at 3 per
oink, have recently applied to the Federal Diet to have the
interest reduced to 2 per cent. That demand, caused by the
scarceness of good bills presented for discount, has been ac-
ceded to in one of the late *Waage of the Diet."
