The Calcutta Englishman of August says that in
the prospects of the early rice harvest there has,
since its last mail issue, been a change for the
worse. "The rainfall during the last fortnight (it
adds) has been, in Southern and Central Bengal. at
least, sadly deficient,: and general apprehension
r= of a short out-turn. In the Behar and
slirtriots, however, we are happy to say
prospects are still very favourable. Cattack and
Pooree are again the most unfortunate of all the
districts ; and the private accounts received of the
present state of things there so completely contra-
aict the official statements, that wilful concealment
on the one side, or wilful misrepresentation on the
other, forms the only possible explanation. Whole
villages are said to have been depopulated ; and,
according to the account of one traveller, the corpses
of the victims lie rotting in the houses, with nose
to bury them."

proceed to Naples and Sicily with his squadron, but that,
in consequence of the apprehension of cholera in Southern
Italy, such intention has been given up for the present.
It is not improbable that the commander-in-chief will
remain ►t Patras, as the serious aspect of affairs in Candle
may call for the presence of the squadron in those waters.
Telegraphic intelligence was received this morning from
England, announcing the arrival of Sir Henry Storks in
London from Jamaica. The news was immediately printed
in the form of a supplement, and has given great pleasure
and satisfaction to the inhabitants. It is earnestly hoped
, that his excellency, after a brief stay in England, will
return here to resume his important post.

The Abendpost (evening edition of the official
Wiener Zeitsing) publishes the following :—"Some
South German newspapers allege that Austria
violated the treaty of alliance concluded by her
with Bavaria. When they cite in support of this
assertion, a passage in a speech delivered by Herr
von der Pfordten in the Bavarian Chamber, they
surely interpret that speech erroneously. The
Bavarian government knows full well that Prussia
expressly refused to enter into negotiations con-
jointly with Austria and her allies, and insisted
even upon conducting separately the peace negotia-
tions with each of the states which had carried on
war against her. The Bavarian government is
equally aware that Austria was by no means en-
couraged by her allies to continue the war."

TATTICRSALLS.-MONDAY.

Although the subscription room wu not very numerously
attended to-day, speculation was briektiwoughont the afternoon,
and &fair amount of business was transacted. As a matter of
course the St. Leger was the principal race bet upon, and several
bones found their way into the quotations. One of the first
operations was that of a well known bookmaker laying 100 to 90

meet. however, the favourite could still have been backed by
laying sto 4 on, which nobody seemed disposed to do. Savernaks
was backed, first at 350 to 100, and subsequently at 100 to 30, the
outlay in all amounting to about four hundred pounds, but the
same price was obtainable on the breaking up of the rooms.
Strathcomui and Rustic were almost equal favourites, the
former being supported at 14 to 1, and the latter at 100 to
7. Rustle appeared to be strongly fancied for a place,
and "250 to 100 was booked to one speculator about
this contingency. Knight of the Crescent and Westwick found
friends upon equal terms, but the Knight was supported for the
larger amount ..f money. An offer was made to back John Scott's
but the odds-10 to I—were not considered liberal enough.
Lord Zetland's colt, Podargus, was evidently out of favour, and
1,000 to 40 went begging about him. A twenty pound note was
Invested upon the itapid Rhone's dam colt, at the long figure of
45 to 1, while 1,000 to 30 woe offered suing Lord Glasgow's lot.
No one could be found to back lioniton at 1,000 to 15, nor could
the same price tempt beakers to identify thenrielveal with Baron
&AM...1111.1's Interests. Between whiles, attempts were made to
get up speculation on minor events, but the offer of 5 to 1 on the
Held for the Leamington Stakes was only feebly responded to,
Regalia being backed for a small amount at that price. Some
two or three homes were fancied for the Great Yorkshire Handi-
cap, but there were few books open, and the investments were
not considerable. No betting on the Derby came under our
notice. The following are the quotations :

MORMON CONFERENCE AT BIRMINGHAM.—TiIe
" Latter Day Saints" of 'Warwickshire, Worcestershire,
and Staffordshire held their semi-annual conference on
Sunday, in the Odd Fellows'-hall, Temple-street, Binning.
ham. Services were held at balf-past ten, two, and siz
o'clock. acidly after the hour appointed for the first of these
services about 200 wen, women, and children assembled
in the place, the major portion of whom were " Saints."
Occupying the chair was Mr. Brigham Young, jun.,
and on his right was Mr. Orson Pratt, one of the
original founders, we believe, of the sect. Amongst others
on the platform were Mr. John W. Young, brother of the
chairman; and a number of presidents of Mormon districts
or Conferences. In the gallery was a choir compoeal
chiefly of young girls. After singing and prayers, Mr.
Aldridge, of the Birmingham Conference, was called
upon to speak. The main substance of his speech was that
be " felt well," and that all the saints were first-rate."
He concluded by invoking the blessing of God upon the
people, to which all the saints responded " Amen, ' and a
similar form was adopted by every succeeding speaker.—
Mr. Stewart, of the Warwickshire Conference, was next
called upon. He observed that he had "nothing special
on hand to say ;" all the saints were moving onwards.
Some landlords prohibited the holding of meetings in build-
ings belonging to them ; and there were some employers
of labour who threatened to turn their workmen away if
they attended Mormon services.—Mr. Butler, president of
the Warwickshire Conference, next spoke and after him,
the President of the Staffordshire Conference gave some
statistics about his district. He said there were seven
branches, 22 elders, 13 priests, three teachers, two deacons;
of their members, two were removed, two dead, 30 emi-
grated ; nine had bees baptised since January : total num-
ber of members, 156. The following statistics were given
in regard to Warwickshire : —ll branches, 29 elders, 12
priests, three teachers, four deacons, one priest ; 10 were
removed, four were excoinrounicated, four dead, 23 enti.
grated, nine baptised ; 163 members in all. Four branches
had not sent in a report.—Mr. Hatch, President of the
Birmingham Conference, related a story of one of the
travelling elders, who addressed an audience in the Bull-
ring, and his enthusia.mi waxed so great that he "asked
for permission to stand on the Nelson monument, be felt
so good ;he felt first rate." When he began to testify of
Prophet Smith, then the Bull-ring audience manifested
enmity to the truth. There wss one "brother" of the name
of Smith, we believe, who was not able to get to the con-
ference, but Mr. Hatch was commissioned to say on his
behalf, " he was on hand for any length of time, if they
would only let him find pay his devotions to his mother,
who was in." In the course of the meeting, Mr. Hatch
described a tour he had had on the continent, particularly
in,Switaerland and Holland. In the latter country he
found 45 Mormons. The saints were exhorted to fast that
day, and the morning proceedings closed with prayer,
oftered by Mr. J. W. Yoang. Lithe afternoon and evening
devotional services were held. The major portion of the
speakers were from Utah.- Birminpdast Daily Post.
