EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

(rsom OUR OWN COMILIWPONDiNT.)
PARIS, TUESDAY Emulo.

I remember telling you Rome weeks ago that the
Emperor, overuling the Board of Censorship, had
decided that M. Ponsard's new play Galilie (the
English for which is Galileo) thould be played at
the Thatre Francais. 1 dare say that paragraphs
translated from French papers within the last few
days have thrown yet doubts upon that news.
You must have read the laments of the
liberal, and the jubilations of the ultramontane
journalsat the fact that even the Emperor's librarian
could not be permitted to dramatise a subject so
obnoxious to Rome as the condemnation of Galileo
by the Holy Inquisition for having obstinately
maintained that the earth turned round the sun.
The scandal, however, must be endured by the
catholic church. I can assure you that M. Ponsard's
play will shortly come out at the Francais.
La Patti will leave Paris on March 1, not, as has
been said, for Madrid, but for St. Petersburg,
where she will be the star of the close of the season.
Her last performance in Paris will be in the Gaza
Ladra, a chef crceurre of Rossini, in which the
Parisians have never yet seen her.
Mr. Gladstone had the honour of dining with
the Emperor on Sunday, at the weekly dinner
called the " diner des colonels," on account of the
number of military men who are invited to it.
This was the beat Bourse that we have seen since
the decree of Jan. 19. Rente rose 35c. for cash,
and 32ic. for account, clueing with considerable
animation at 69fr. 25c. and 69fr. 191 c. Credit
Fonder rose 21fr. 25c.; Mobilier, 6fr.; Comptoir
d'Esoompte, 6fr. 25c.; and Italian, 32ic.

The preparations yesterday for to-morrow's set-
tlement in the railway market showed generally a
limited supply of stock, thus affording evidence
that the recent temporary falling off in the traffic
has encouraged a number of speculators to operate
fora fall. The result was that the rates of " con-
tinuation" yesterday were light, and in several
cases—as, for instance Midland, Manchester and
Sheffield, and South Eastern—a " backwarclation"
was given for the loan of stock till the next ac-
count. The following shows the terms generally
current at the commencement and close of business:

paid his costs of the appearance out of the funds of
the company._ _

Mr. demi, Q.C. ; Mr. Roxburgh, Q.C. ; Mr. `Swanton.
and Mr. Martin, were in thecaae.

in these applications without the speci►l leave of the court
to do so.

Mr. Coleridge, Q.C., on behalf of the defendant, re.
sinned his argument at the sitting of the court this morn-

The learned counsel's ►rgument occupied the court the

A st'sslM TRAM:BIIAM IE sKARCH OF tl5 WIFE.
Upon the business of the court commencing, an elderly
and respectably-dressed man entered the witness box, and

advice.
The applicant then said he had arrived the previous
day from Rye, in Sussex, where be is carrying on the
business of a grocer, and had found that his wife,who had
gone away from him ten years ago, was carrying on a
good business in the neighbourhood of this court. He
went to the shop in order to see his wife, but had failed,
and an hour or two previously he paid a second visit but
the assistant said his wife was not at home, although he
was confident she was there, and saw him, although he
did not see her. (Laughter.)
Mr. Trail—What is it you want me to do for you!
Applicant—l want your worship ti grant me an audi-
ence with my wife. (Loud laughter.)
Mr. Traill—An audience with your wife! I have no
power to do that. You biul better go back to Rye as quickly
as possible and stick to your grocery businesa. (Laughter.)
Applicant (apparently deaf)— What does his worship say!
Mr. Rawson (usher) having repeated his worship's
remarks,
The fipplicant expressed dissatisfaction ; upon which
Mr. Trail] told him that as he and his wife had been
absent from each other for ten years, and her address was
known, he thought it would be sutticient if his conjugal
feelings were made known to her by means of a letter
through the post, rather than by contriving to seek an
interview wluch had been twice denied to him.
The applicant thanked his worship, but said he was
determined, if possible, to see his wife before lie returned
to Rye, and he then left the court.

SURREY SESSIONS.

The May sessions for the peace of the county of Surrey
commenced yesterday at the Sessions-house, Newington-
eaumewsy. The calendar contains the names of 31 prisoners
for trial ; 27 for felony and for misdemeanours. The status
of education was as follows :-11 could neither read nor
write, 19 could read and write imperfectly, and only one
could read and write well. There are three fur house-
breaking, one for horse-stealing, two for embezzlement,
two for stealing property worth upwards of W. in the
dwelling-house, four for stealing front the person, four
for assaults, and tho remainder for petty larcenies.
On the grand jury being sworn, the chairman observed
that he was happy to inform them that the calendar was
extremely light, there being only 31 prisoners for trial, in
27 cases. The offences RIRO were very alight as compared
with former sessions, and he did not think there was one
case that required any remark from him. He therefore
dismissed them to their room.

SEVERE GALES IN THE ATLANTIC.—Tire moat
recent accounts from America report the continuance of
severe weather both in the North and South Atlantic. In
the Straits of Magellan the remains of no less than four
wrecks had been passed by homeward bound ships, andfrom
the names and marks on different portions of them it is
supposed that some came from Liverpool. On the North
Atlantic coast very severe gales raged around Cape Hat-
teras between the 15th and the 19th of April, and the
steamer General Meade, from New Orleans to New York,
reported having passed two stramers on the shore inside
Florida Reef. The steam hip Louisiana, of Liverpool, arrived
at New York on the 25th, and 'Aided at that port the pilot
and crew of the Prussian barque Auguste Louise, which

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.

The May general sessions of the peace for the county of
Middlesex commenced yesterday at the Sessions-house,
Clerkenwell-green, before Mr. William Henry Bodkin,
Assistant Judge ; Mr. Joseph Payne, Deputy Assistant
Judge ; Mr. Henry Pownall, chairman of the Quarter Ses-
sions; and the following justices of the peace :—Mr. Twenty-
man, Mr. J. J. Pilcher, Dr. Jervis, Mr. Rankine, Mr. H.
Ilarwood Harwood, Admiral Basanquet, Mr. Bashfonl,
and Mr. Gould. _ _ _

Although a very short time has elapsed since the last ses-
sions took place the calendar is rather heavy. It contains
the nonce of 74 persons committed for trial, 63 for felony,
and 11 for misdemeanour. There are also several bail
cases. The degrees of education of the prisoners, as set
forth in the calendar, are as follow :—Neither read nor
write, 20 ; read and write well 3; read only, 12 ; read
and write imperfectly, 39 ; and of superior education,
none. The crimes of which the prisoners are charged are
stealing lead affixed to a building, indecent assaults, rob-
beries in dwelling houses, robberies from the person, as-
saulting and wounding, obtaining money under false pre.
tenses, attempting to pick pockets, and of robbing little
children and stealing their clothes.
Alfred Depresne, 33, a Frenchman, was indicted for
stealing a card and 19 gold rings, value 771., the property
of Robert Dobree, in his dwelling house.
The prisoner pleaded guilty.
Mr. Collins appeared for the prosecution ; the prisoner
was undefended.

It appeared from the statement of the learned counsel for
the prosecution, that on the 21st of April the prisoner
went into the shop of Mr. Dobree, a jeweller and watch-
maker in the Stnuul, and asked to look at some diamond
rings. A tray of diamond rings was shown to him, but
immediately he seized hold of them and bolted out of the
shop, fastening the shop door on the outside after him. A
cry of " Stop thief ! was raised, and two men who were
passing at the time seised hold of the prisoner, who then
threw down the tray of rings, and the consequence was
that two valuable rings were lost. In the pocket of the
prisoner a quantity of snuff was found loose, which it was
suggested was to aid him in the event of his being pursued
while in the commission of the robbery.
The Assistant Judge sentenced him to be imprisoned
and kept to hard labour for 1$ months.

THE CONFERENCE.
BERLIN, MAY 6, Eviyusa.

The semi-official North German Gazette of this
evening confirms the news of the invitation of
Belgium and Italy to the conference. The same
journal publishes an article in which it again
draws attention to the active continuance of mili-
tary preparations in France. It particularly points
to the incessant manufacture of munitions which is
going on at Belfort, and adds that at that fortress,
as well as at Metz and Strasburg, large quantities of
war material have been collected, including especially
pontroon trains, by means of which a large number
of bridges could be thrown over the Rhine. It
also points out that the improvement of the exist-
ing fortifications, and the erection of new ones on
the French eastern frontier, arebeinghastened, and
says—" It 'will soon be seen whether the state-
ments of the Patrie are correct that these prepara-
tions had already been ordered before the publication
of the note upon the subject in the Moniteur, and
that their execution can only gradually be
stopped."

PARIS, MAT 6, EVENING.

The Patric of this evening says " Three
sittings will probably suffice for the conference to
conclude its labours. An agreement has been
established preliminarily and simultaneously upon
the fundamental points and upon the manner of
carrying them out. We believe even that the date
for the evacuation of Luxemburg has been fixed."

1111 SCHOONIR RAC".

Before the arrival ille;-12greai6ravelead it had been
found necessary to start the schooner.. This wsa done by Lord
de Em from his yacht, the Mabel. The signal hoisted was a
white flag toget ready, sad a red flag to start. They were of at
11.30. The Albertine had the best place to windward, and set
her malls quickest. The Egerla had some difficulty about her
square sail, but almost homediately took the Sod. The wind
was Y. 3. W., but was light at starts and soon becoming
lighter, Ai leugth diedaway. Thence thus:
•L E. &

Ilds .0 started at 11 iT..i—most even start, the
Phryas, however, being rather before the °then, and jibing after
the Vindas. The race Mashed as follows:

The race, however, wee andeekted, for the owner of the
Vanguard made several protests, the principal of which was that
the others had used unlimited canvas, which he was not aware
that he might. The matter was left for the sailing committees
decision on a future day.

THE YACHTING SEASON IN AKERICA.—The ocean
sweepstake which is to come off on the llth of July will
be the grand affair of the 'neon. It will offer, perhaps,
as fair • test of the sea-going qualities of the vessels en-
tered as the Atlantic race, the only difference being that
the one will be a course of two hundred, while the other
was a run of three thousand miles. It will test the speed
of the different classes of yachts equally with the longer
race, such vessel, as the Widgeon and Phantom having as
fair a chance in it as their larger competitors. As the
English yachts will be allowed to compete, we shall,
in all probability, have a fair number of foreign entries.
This, in addition to the crowd of American yachts which
will be entered, will make up a list such as no other con-
test of the same kind, either here or abroad, has perhaps
presented. We are glad of the introduction of foreign
rivalry in these races. We have always beaten the
English yaahte whenever we have been brought into
competition with them in their own waters. lAtterl7,
they claim that they build vessels which can whip
ours, and we should like to have the thing tried.
We shall give them every opportunity that hospitality
and fair play call for, and we shall be ready to embrace
the same chances when they offer them to us. There is
nothing that we should more desire to establish than a
frequent interchange of these visite and courtesies between
the yachtmen of different countries. Why should not the
English yachtmen, who make voyages up the Mediterra-
nean and even to points in the Arctic Often, make the
trip anon the Atlantic as a matter of regular summer en-
joyment! We have demonstrated how safely it can be
done at the wont period of the year. Surely they will
imitate ear example. now that they see that there is so
little risk attendieg it.—Pee York Herald, May 15.

There was a very poor show of English wheat here to-
day. Sales, ►owever, progressed slowly, but at prices

Fine foreign wheats were quite as dear as last week, with
a fair demand. Inferior parcels, however, were very dull.
Floating cargoes of grain were very inactive.
No English barley was brought forward, but the show
of foreign was on the increase. The trade was firm, and
the quotations were well aupported.
Malt was in full average supply, and sluggish request,
on former terms.

The sale for oats was steady. In prices, however, no
change took place.
Beans, owing to their scarcity, were quite as dear as on
Monday.
In peas, next to nothing was doing, at late rates.
The flour trade was steady.
Seeds and cakes were a slow inquiry at previous quota-

Mr. Mullins, who appeared for the prosecution, said that
'Lace the prisoner had Keen remanded persons bad been
broaght over from Belfast to see if they could identify the
Prioller, but they were linable to do so. This being the
case, and having regard to the fact that the robbery was
committal so far back as March, 1864, although the
loaner in which the prisoner accounted for the posses.
'ion, of the notes was very suspicions, he did not think
the evidence vu sufficient to justify him in asking for
the further detention of the prisoner.
The lord Mayor said that the officer was perfectly juatis

triduee could be brought forward he must be discharged.

TRITONS TO LON//02f.

It is London. the Times says, and not the Court that
the Sultan and the Czar are coming to see. Our great city
will not show to the hest advantage before eyes dazzled by
Parisian glitter ; but the fact that 3,000,000 of souls
have business in it, and that, unlike continental capitals,
London is independent of royal patronage and of foreign
visitors, make it unlike any other place in the world.
London is not the city of the Caesars ; it does not hear the
mark of the Napoleonic; but no other place more forcibly
embodies the whole genius of • people. We must set
it off to the best of our abilities, that our guests may find
that the world does not end at the Channel, and that there
may be something celestially different from anything in
the power of Cedars or Napoleons to produce.
In another article the Times suggests that the Belgian
Reception Committee mint be careful not to overdo the
matter by importunate lionizing. Our visitors will pro-
bably like to have • little time to themselves, for every
one's experience will recall to him how much better he sees
a new oountry by wandering about at his own free will.
The Belgians will also, probably, have sufficient profes-
sional spirit to desire to be • good deal at Wimbledon. A
good effect will be produced if the committeeswill endea-
vour to mace the priacipal entertainment, worthy of the ,
