THE LONDON LIBRARY.

The twenty-sixth annual general meeting of the
members of this institution was held at the Library, St.
James's-square, on Saturday afternoon ; the Hight Hun.
the Earl of CI-tat:awls in the chair.
Among the members present wore the Earl Stanhope,
Mr. W. D. Christie, the Rev. Llewellen Davies Mr. W.
Donne (of the Lord Chamberlain's °Moe), Dr. Alderson
(president of the Royal College of Physicians), Dr. John
Chapman, Mr. Gen. Henry Lewes, the Rev. E. E.
Esteourt, Ao._ _

The noble CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the
report, expressed his gratification that he had been again
enabled to take the chair as president of the society. The
progress of the library was very gratifying. In 1863 the
number of members was 862 ; it was in 1886, 938. In
the former year the income was 2,1221.. and the balance in
hand 203/. ; in the latter it was 2,7001., with • ba-
lance at the bankers of 534/.; while the purchase
of books had not been stinted, because in 1863 412/. were
expended, while they had spent in 1886 the sum of 5501.
for new hooks and 103/. for binding. (Cheers.) The
library was one of the moat valuable in the kingdom, being
specially rich in foreign works, and it posed the advan-
tage which no other did, that members might take the
books home. He considered that such a library as this
was invaluable to the student, and was very glad to see
that its advantages were, being appreciated.
The report was unanimously adopted, and the thanks of
the meeting were given to the committee and auditors,
Dr. Webster and other gentlemen recommending that a
portion of the surplus funds should be devoted to the
purchase of valuable Italian works, the literature of that
country having been greatly stimulated and thrown open
by recent political events.
A conlial vote of thank' to the noble president con-
cluded the proceedings.

The bankrupt, who described himself as a tailor, for-
merly carrying on business in Wardour-street, and since at
3, Cross-street, Covent-garden, attributed his difficulties to
the destruction, by fire, of his premises and stock in War-
dour-street, by which he was Daft destitute, his property
being uninsured. He returns his debt, at 5141., with
assets of trilling amount.
This was a sitting for examination and discharge.
Mr. Aldridge appeared for the official assignee.
The bankrupt was examined and said that he had made
applic►tion to several insurance offices but they declined to
grant him a policy. They gave him no reason for refusing
to insure, but he understood that there was an objection
to take insurances from foreigners.
His Honour said the bankrupt might pan his 111111111b111.
Yoe, but the discharge would be adjourned for inquiry, as
it seemed r►ther extrarordinary that insurance offices
should decline to take a policy merely for the reason that
the party applying was a foreigner.
Order accordingly.

however, a better feeling has prevailed, and buyers show
more disposition to operate. Fine carpet of wheat belle

THE POLICE COURT&

BOW.STREET.

Geome Edward gurney. formerly a constable of the R
division of police, the keeper of a beer-shop, the Earl of
Cardigan, Marlborongh-road, Chelsea, was charged with
having attempted to corrupt Mr. Robert Tubbs, chairman
I of the Kensington bench of magistrates, by sending him •
sum of 4W. Gurney's application for a spirit license has
been repeatedly refused. He applied again this year, and
the case was to have been beard on the 19th March. About
eight days previously he wrote and delivered at Mr. Tubb.'
house a letter containing four 10/. notes, which was to the
following effect:—" Honoured 84,—Trusting that you will
not feel offended, but pardon the very great liberty, having
struggled very hard in my house for eleven years to main-
tain my family, and without any complaint from the police ;
honoured air, if you will take my case into your very kind
consideration, and be my friend, at the coming licensing
day, and fur which will be ever most gratefully felt by
your very obedient servant, G. E. Gurney, Earl of
Cardigan, Marlborough-road, Chelsea." On the 10th
April another letter by poet, of which the following is a
ropy :—" April Bth, 1867. Honoured humble beg
that you will pardon this liberty. The object I have in
writing is to ask your honour whether you received my
letter and the contents on the Bth March, that I left at your
house. Honoured sir, I hope you will pardon this free-
dom. I am, honoured sir, your very obedient, humble
servant, George E. Gurney, Earl of Cardigan. Marlborough-
road, Chelsea. To Robert Tubbs, Esq." This letter con-
tainedan envelope stamped and directed to the prisoner,
with the view, as counsel for the prosecution coutentled,
that the 41W. might be returned, the licence not having
been granted. When apprehended Gurney admitted
having written and sent the letters, but he did not con-
sider that he had done anything wrong.
The magistrate remanded him for further examination.

THB BISHOP OP LONDON'S PASTORAL LETTER.

The following letter from the Bishop of Lindoa
was read yesterday by the clergy in their respective
*alittrobee : " Fulham Palace, May Is, 1567. Bev.
and dear brother,—The time has come when I
may again fairly request you to urge on your people
the claims of that fund which, assisted by the clergy
and laity of my diocese, I have organised to meet
the spiritual wants of the metropolis. We have reason to
thank God for the measure of success which ltai hitherto
attended oar efforts. Within ler than (oar years a sum
of 202,0001, has been directly subscribed to the toad, and
a further sum of about 90,01/01. has been pruutisea ; while
at the same time, independently of the fund. S:.::,isak has
been subscribed by private donors towards the same
objects as those which the fund undertakes; and a further
sum of 5.30,0001. has been voted by the Bcclasiestical Cain-
misaioners towards the endowment of mull livings it the
diocese. By means of the money directly subscribed to
the fund 115 clergy and 64 lay saaistanta have been added
to the staff of the diocese. Grants have been made for
57 permatiest churches, and for 71 sites for churches, par,
menages, Ire., while a sum of 28,6661. has been voted fee
educational purposes. This statement does not include twp
largedonations of 4,1001. and s,oM.approptiMed tochurchee
and schools in two parishes specified by the dooms. Let
me begyou,however, to urge nponyour people that, notwith-
standing the exertions dready made, there remains a vast
population as yet not reached by our efforts. In order Ps
secure one clergyman for every 2,M10 of our populatise,
we shall need twice as many additional clergy as we have
already secured, with a proportionate number of churches
and schools. I should observe that ose-half of the large
stun already subscribed has been contributed by • very
small number of persona. I am very anxious that you
should, if you have not done so already, originate at this
time some machineryin your perish, whereby the middle
and labouring classes, as well as the rich, may be induced
to take an interest individually in our efforts. With this
object, 00 parochial associations have already been formed
this year, and 1 should greatly rejoice if each church could
have its own amoMation, so that those who live or have
property in your parish may be now induced to co-operate
in the peat work we have undertaken. Commending thii
suggestion and the general interests of the (mid to yoet
favourable attention and your prayers, and feeithg confi-
dent that you will urge on your people the duty iur.mibent
on all who live in Loudon, or visit it, to do what they can
for the spiritual good of the poor around them—l am►
rev. and deer brother, your faithful brother hurl servant.

CATTLE PLAGUE.

Attention is being called to this subject by its
undoubted outbreak in London during the last few days.
In answer to Mr. Mitford Lord It. Montagu stated that
there were no less than nine infected places in the metro-
polis. The government baying received intelligence that
the disease is rife in many parts of Germany, have been
compelled again to resort to restrictive measures. By an
order of the Lords of the Council, from and after Wednes-
day next " no cattle are to be brought to the metropolitan
market, exposed for sale, or sold there without a license,"
or " moved out of it to any place within the metropolis,
except with a pass." It will be very satisfactory if these
measures prove efficacious; yet there are person. who
more than question such a result. They hold that the
disease being so prevalent in countries from which we are
daily importing, the re-introduction of infected cattle is
certain. " These," they maintain, " should not traverse a
yard, much less " Wby not," say they, " slaughter
and market them where they are disembarked?" But
this, of course, necessitates the establishment of another
market, and who is to provide one?

the following telegram has just been received from

fault in the cable of 1866 is distant from the land
only one and a half mile, and in water so shallow
that the repair can be made quickly and at small
expense.

The committee of the National Reform Union
are said to contemplate holding a "demonstration" in
Mr. Spurgeon's Tabernacle.
In the several versions of Mr. Gladstone's reply
to the Reform Union deputation, one expression of some
importance relating to the si. line wait differently ren-
dered. Three of the morning papers gve it thus:—" Ido
not say that under no circumstances am I likely to revive
it ;" while the three other reports stand thus:—" I do
not see the circumstances under which I am likely to re-
vive it." The second is the correct version.—Ofeerrer.

THE REFORM BILL TOR SCOTLAND.—The Repre-
sentation of the People Bill (Scotland) bus been printed.
The occupation, educational, and pecuniary franchise in
counties and burghs are the same as in the bill for En-
Lu2d. The Universities of Edinburgh and St. Andrew's
arc jointly to return a member, and the Universities of
Glasgow and Aberdeen another member. After the end
of the present parliament the city of Glasgow is to be
divided, and the burgh of South Glasgow to return one
member independently of the city, which returns two.
Then there is the re-arrangement of the burghs, which is
not to take effect until the end of the present parliament.
The registers of voters are to be formed for the new burghs
and divisions of counties in 1868. There are also provi.
slims for the separate assessment of tenants, &c., similar
to the bill under discussion in the committee of the
Rouse of Commons.

NORFOLK AND REFORM BELL--A meeting of
the Norfolk Chamber of Agriculture was held on Satur-
day at Norwich ; Mr. C. S. Read, M.P., presiding; to ,
consider the operation of the Reform Bill es regards Nor-
folk. It is proposed to disfranchise GreatYarmouth, and
to take one member from Thetford, thus reducing the ag.
gregate number of Norfolk members from 12 to 9, while it
was shown that Devonshire would have no less than 22,
although the amount of income tax paid in Devonshire
was less then the corresponding amount paid in Norfolk.
After considerable discussion, it was resolved unanimously
that the proposal to take away three members from Nor-
folk was unjust, and that the wort strenuous efforts should
be made to retain to the county the twelve members to
which it was entitled by reason of its population, wealth,
and importance. A memorial to this effect will be sub-
mitted to Mr. Disraeli.

LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

(aorta's TZLZCEAMS.)

THE EXECUTION OF THE EMPEROR,
MAXIMILIAN.
NEW YORK, Jr it 4.

Official advices received here from Mexico an-
nounce that the Emperor Maximilian was shot on
the 19th June. The execution was postponed by
Juarez for three days. The British and Prussian
ministers had strongly protested against the
execution, and were preparing to leave the
country. The Prussian Minister assured Juarez
that several crowned heads in Europe would give an
undertaking that if the life of the Emperor was
spared he would leave Mexico forthwith. JuarezarAl
his ministers replied that the safety of the country
demanded the execution. Esoobedo has declared
that ho would confiscate the property of all Im-
perialists, and expresed the hope that before his
military career ended he should see the blood
of every foreigner in Mexico spilled.
Diaz captured the City of Mexico on the 20th.
No particulars have been received.

The American press generally express great
sympathy fur Maximilian.

ITALY.

FLORENCE, JOLT 11, Errznica.

In to-day's sitting of the Italian Parliament the
debate on the Ecclesiastical Property Bill was
resumed. Signor Mancini defended the right of
the State to the property of the church. He said
that the programme of Count Cavour which signi-
fied freedom of the church was strictly bound up
with tho condition that Rome should be the
capital of Italy. He criticised the last ap-
pointments of bishops, and said that the
government should not abandon its weapons of de-
fence against the Roman government, which has
committed acts contrary to civilisation, liberty,
and the independence of Italy. Signor Cordova
and Borgetti defended the late ministry. Signor
Mancini replied that when the part payment of the
Roman debt was asked for the government ought
to have made it conditional upon the recognition
of Italy. (Applause.)

BRIGADE OP GUARDS INSTITUTE.

The building which has been erected in Francis-
street, Vauxhall-bridge-road, for the recreation of the non•
commissioned Olken; and soldiers of the three regiments
forming the brigade of Guards when quartered in London,
was formally opened yesterday by his Royal Highness the
Duke of Cambridge, the Commander-in-Chief. It bad long
been feltby tinny °MOM of the brigade that the establish-
ment of an institute in London as a pl►ce of occupation,
resort, and recreation for soldiers when out of barracks,
would be a gteat advantage. In the autumn of 1844 the
subject was brought under the notice of the Duke of Cam-
bridge, and his sanction obtained for the establishment of
such an institution. His royal highness recommended
the undertaking to the support of the Secretary of State
for War, and 3,0001. was granted towards the expenses in
the army estimates. A committee, under the presideucy
of Major-General Lord Frederic I'aulet, C.D., was
formed, and a site in close proximity to the Guards'
Hospitals and Orphan Asylum purchased, and the
building has been erected under the superintendence
of the architect, Mr. Darbishire. Nothing can he
more complete, "calonrodious, and even luxurious
than the arrangements. The building is plain, but suffi-
ciently characteristic. The rooms are large, light, and
well ventilated. There are libraries, in which facilities
are afforded and the requirement provided for writing as
well as reading, and also for chess, draughts, and cards.
There are well appointed end furnished billiard and baga-
telle rooms ; American skittle alleys ; a concert or lecture
room ; refreshment bars, from which beer, tea, coffee, and
eatables are supplied at canteen prices ; and, in fact, all
the accommodation that a well appointed club for the
lower middle class coull be expected to afford—and more.
For all these advantages the rates of subscriptions are :
Sergeants, Gd. ; corporals, sd. ; privates, 4d. Separate
portions of the building are allotted for the use, respec-
tively, of non-commissioned officers and men—a regulation
which appears to be essential in the eyes of red-tapista to
the discipline of the British army, but which continental
nations, whore military reputation is not of a low stan-
dard, have found it possible, and even advantageous, to
dispense with.

THE EXTENSIVE EMBEZZLEMENTS BY A
STOCKBROKER'S CLERK.

Yesterday, at the Mansion-house, William John
Hurst, a young man of respectable appearance, described
as of Hawkhurst-lodge, Lower Sydenham, was brought up
on remand before Alderman Sir R. W. Carden, c: urged
with feloniously embezzling and stealing a cheque for the
payment of 130/., received by him for and on account of
Messrs. Seymour and Elwyn, stockbrokers, of 38, Throg.
morton-street., his masters and employers. It will be re-
membered that at the last examination it was mentioned
that the prisoner's defalcations had been ascertained to
amount to very nearly 13,000/.
Mr. Beale;, instructed by Messrs. Nash, Field, and
Layton, appeared for the prosecution ; and Mr. Sleigh, in-
structed by Mr. W. E. Siuitb, of Gresham-house,
appeared for the prisoner.
The deposition made by Detective Sergeant Henry
Webb at the last examination was read over for the infor-
mation of Mr. Sleigh. It disclosed that when Webb. on
apprehending the prisoner, read to him the warrant which
onlyspecified theembezzlement of the cheque for 1301., the
prisoner said that all matters had been settled by the pay-
ment by him of 2,00E4 to Mr. Seymour, one of the prose-
cutors. To this the officer responded that since the pri-
soner had left in June, 1866, the amountof his deficiencies
had been found to be nearly 13,000(.
Mr. Healey observed that the amount of 13,0001. referred
to a period of two years and a half, daring which period
the books of the prosecutors had been examined and gone
through by professional accountant. employed by the pro-
secutors for that purpose. He (Mr. Holley) should be
enabled to show that besides the embezzlements and frauds,
the prisoner hail falsified the books, and that these disco-
veries had in consequence not been made until the latter
end of the last or the commencement of the present year.
With reference to the charges which now he made against the
prisoner, there would be three distinct charges of embezzle-
ment, three charges of stealing, and further, there would
be charges of obtaining money from the prosecutors by
false pretences, the false pretences being that certain
cheques he had filled up, and to which he obtained the
signature of the firm, were for the payment of their cus-
tomers, in settlement of business transactions, whereas the
prisoner applied the cheques so obtained to his own pur-
paws.
M. Rainier William Elwyn was then called, and ex-
amined by Mr. Healey.
After other evidence the prisoner was remanded to
Monday next, bail being 'till refused.

UNIVERSITY REFORM.

Liberal members of the House of Commons will
be glad to be reminded that Mr. Fawcett's Bill
for enabling the colleges of Oxford and Cambridge
to admit to fellowships persons who are not mem-
bers of the Established Church comes on for dis-
cussion this afternoon. An important division is
expected.

His Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, as
Field-Marshal Commanding-in-Chief, held a levee
yesterday afternoon at the Horse Guards.
Upwards of 180 officers attended.

The third reading of the Testa Abolition (Oxford
and Cambridge) Bill is deferred from Tuesday 4th till Tues-
day, 18th June.

In committee on the Representation of the People
(Scotland) Bill, Mr. Daiglish will move that the Universi•
ties of St. Andrew's, Glasgow, Edinburgh, and Aberdeen
shall return ono member ; Mr. Baxter—That the counties
of Selkirk and Peebles be united and return one member.
That the counties of Roes and Cromarty and Sutherland be
united and return one member ; and Mr. Robertson (Ber-
wickshire)—That the possession of a residence within the
county shall form a necessary part of the county franchise•
"COUNTING Our."—On the house re-assembling
at 9 o'clock last evening an hon. member moved that the
house be counted. At this time there were the following
members of the government on the Treasury bench :—The
Chancellor of the Exchequer, Mr. Hunt, the Attorney-
General, Lord J. Manners, Lord R. Montagu, Lord Naas,
Mr. Hardy, and Mr. Cave. The front opposition bench
wanted its usual occupants. The Speaker, having
counted the house, declared 37 members to be pre-
sent. His decision was challenged, and he counted again.
During these proceedings much anxiety seemed to prevail
on the ministeriarbench, and when the Speaker announced
that only 38 members were present a feeling of regret was
manifested in that quarter. While the Speaker was coun-
ting, Colonel French went to the door, and unsuccessfully
endeavoured to induce some members who were outside to
come in, and on his return he said in a loud voice, "They
are keeping them out." The moment the numbers were
announced by the Speaker several members who had been
watching outside entered the house. The members pre-
sent afterwards gathered into groups, apparently convers-
ing upon the occurrence, and gradually retired.—Tisza.

COMMERCIAL AND MARKETS.

MARIE-LANE.—(THIS DAY.)
The receipts of wheat from Baser and Kent fresh op to
our market to-day were very moderate. There was, how-
ever, a sufficient quantity on hand to meet all demands.
Very little business was passing in either red or white
parcels, nevertheless, as regards prices, the trade was de.
cidedly firm. On the whole, the quality of the supply was
. .

The show of foreign wheat was good. Fine qualities
supported Monday's advance, with a fair sale; but in
inferior sorts the transactions were on a very limited scale.
Floating cargoes of grain met with very little attention,
at barely previous quotations.
Barley was inactive on former terms.
Malt moved off slowly on former terms.
In oata sales progressed steadily, and prices ruled firm.
There was a fair supply on sale.
Beans were in short supply and fair request at extreme
rates.

The few peas in the market were held at prices quite
equal to Monday.
The flour trade ruled steady on former terms.
With the exception of linseed, which realised full prices,
the Ws for seeds was much restricted. Cakes were dull.
