PARIS, FIIDAT EVENINa.
There is no reliable news this evenings either
from Naples or Sicily.
There is a sinister paragraph in this evening's
Pattie suggesting that, although Francis 11. has
promised the constitution of 1848, it must be re-
collected that the French charter of 1830 was the
model of that constitution when it was granted,
and that it was quite natural that the King, acting
under M. Brenier's advice, should now remodel that
constitution so as to bring it into harmony with the
existing regime of France. So you see that all
modern improvements in the art of democratic go-
vernment are likely to be engrafted upon the
new-born liberalism of the Neapolitan Bourbons.
I am told that the Emperor and Empress will set
out on July 16 for Nioe, Savoy, Corsica, and
Algiers ; that the tour will not occupy more than
twenty or twenty-five days, and that immediately
on their return they will take up their residence at
Biarritz for the autumn.

The sci-diaaat religious journals avail themselves
largely of the newly-accorded permission to publish
the bishops' pastoral letters. The Bishop of
Nimes, in a long address, the first part of which
only is as yet published, complains of " publicists
invested with a certain authority [meaning the
Emperor's own pamphlet], eminent functionaries,
sad renowned orators [meaning MM. Baroche and
Dupin], who, by their writings and speeches, evi-
dently attempt to brand the foreheads of the
episcopacy."
The Bourse opened with much animation, and
the Rente advanced 20c. upon the rise of yes-
terday, but it ultimately closed without change at
68fr. 96c. Mobilier fell 6fr. Vic. The Orleans
Railway rose 131 r. 75a, Eastern, 6fr., and the other
lines left off with little alteration. The weekly
receipts have improved.
It will be remembered that the President of the
Imperial Court of Toulouse was shot at last month
while leaving the bench, and that the assassin, a
disappointed suitor named Ouilhem, was then and
there tried by the Wit under a special article of
the code, and sentenced to imprisonment with hard
labour for life. The judges admitted in his favour
" attenuating circumstances," in order to relieve
themselves from the necessity of pronouncing a
sentence of death. The Court of Caseation yester-
day quashed this conviction on the ground that the
prisoner being 60 years old, was entitled to the
benefit of the law of May, 1864, which prescribes
that " hard labour" shall in no case whatever be
inflicted upon persons of that age and upwards,

THE UNITED STATES.

The United States mail steam packet Arago
arrived at Southampton yesterday, with dates fmm New
York to the 23rd ult. The freight on board comprised
specie for England, value 150,000 dole. The leading fea-
tures of the intelligence have been anticipated. Congress
was sected to adjourn in a day or two.
A Washington despatch of June 22 to the New York
Tines say. The Post-office Deficiency and Poet Route
Bills are the only ones of a general public character now
pending between the two houses, with the exception of the
tariff. All the Pennsylvania representatives present, ex-
cept Mr. Dimmick, voted against the Loan Bill, and three
democrats only recorded their names in the negative,
namely. Messrs. Cobb, Florence, and Morris, of Illinois.
The affirmative was • mixed vote of all parties. The
Senate weed the bill within ten minutes after it left the
house. Congress has changed the title of Purser to that of
Paymaster in the Navy. The British navy adopted the
title some years ego."
The New York Herald says :—" There is no doubt from
rmimt appearances but that there will be six candidates
for the Presidency in the coming contest—more by one, we
believe, than ever before publicly aspired to that dis-
tinguished station in the same campaign. Before the middle
of next week we shall have :—Black republican, Abraham
Lincoln, of 111. ; northern democracy, Stephen A. Douglas, of
Ill.; southern secession democracy, • independent
democracy, Sam. Houston, of Texas ; national union, John
Bell, of Tenn. ; John Brown abolition, Gerrit Smith, of
New York." . . . . .

The following is a brief statement from the Nero York
riNes of the monetary and commercial affairs on June 22. :
—" There was again • strong and advancing market for
stocks yesterday, and speculation evinced as much spirit for
tho rise as it did last week for the fall. No change in money
or foreign bills. An active business was reported in flour,
wheat, and corn, at firmer prices. Provisions, sugars,
coffee, naval stores and whisky, attracted more attention.
Candles, metals, fish, fruit, hops, oils, rice, laths, salt and
tobacco were moderately inquired for. Cotton, hemp, seeds
and molasses were quiet. The movements in other branches
of trade were productive of no important changes."

hopes are entertained 44 the core harvest will suffer little
from the effects of the extraordinary mins. The rapid de-
crease of :is, which has taken place in the price of wheat in
coniequence of two days flue weather, shows that small
credence u given to the rumour that much damage ban
been done. Between this town and Martock there are still
hundreds of acres under water, and the grass thus deluged
must have rotted to a great extent, yet the loss entailed on
the occupiers of moorland will not he so heavy an was antici-
pated a week ago. Reduction is the rule in ell ruin and

MINES.-THIS DAY.

Two o'Coww.
The mining =rice( to-day is quiet. The prin-
cipal inquiries have been for Rosewarne United,
SortriAge Consols, and Rosewall Hill and Ran-
som United shares, which are firmer. East
Basset shares are weaker : they opened at 141, and
closed at 1424 "sellers." A number of transactions
will be found recorded in the Stock Exchange list.
The shares of the Great Northern Copper Mining
Company of South Australia are inquired for, and
have been dealt in at dia. and par. Foreign
mining securities remain very quiet.
Subjoined is our usual weekly report of the
metal market :

Metals have kept steady in price, but move off slowly.
Copper has been iu better demand for foreign, and holders
ask somewhat higher price'. English is without change.
Iron shows no change in manufactured, but Scotch pig has
been dale in largely, at improved rates. Tin keep firm,
but no large amount of business is reported. Speller is
quite neected, and quotations are nominal and unchanged.
In lead there is little doing. Tin plates find • steady
market, and at the Gloucester meeting this week the maims
advanced their prices.

ROYAL NAVAL UNIFORM.

In pursuance of her Majesty's commands some
changes have taken place in the uniform of officers of the
Royal Navy. This her been rendered necessary by the in-
creased rank assigned to the medical branch of the service.
The matter now decided has led to many questions
being asked in the House of Commons on the sub-
ject ‘luring the past twelve menthe The Right Honour-
able the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty have
done wisely in adhering to the old uniform, for its
quiet beauty has elicited much commendation. We find
that in our impression of 20th September, 1856, our cor-
respondent, in writing from Moscow on the occasion of the
coronation of the present Emperor of Russia, said, " The
British naval uniform in particular elicited admiration—it is
hardly to be surpassed in its quiet richness, and that I am
nut einguLir in that opinion may be inferred from the fact of
its having been taken asu model by rill naval nations."
The new instructions are too don' for us to print, but
the courtesy of Messrs. Gillett, of the Strand, who have for
years been their lordships advisers on the question of uni-
form, enables us to give the following condensed informa-
tion. It is the medical officers who are chiefly affected by
the change. The single-breasted coat and arrangement of
buttons thereon by threes is retained ; subject to this, the
Director General of the Medical Department will wear the
uniform of rear-admirals ;
Inspectors-General —Thatof commodores of the first clam ;
Deputy Inspectors-General—The uniform of captains of
three years standing ;
Staff Surgeons—The uniform of captains ;
Surgeons—The uniform of commanders;
Assistant-Surgeons of six years' standing—The uniform of
lieutenants; and
Junior Assistant-Surgeons—The uniform of mates.
Full dress is only to be worn on state occasions. The un-
dress coat, with epaulettes, cocked bat, and sword, are to be
worn at courts-martial. On all other occasions, such as
medical surveys, &c., the frock-coat, with cap and sword,
is to be considered sufficient dress.
With a view to distinguish the executive from the civil
branches, when wearing the frock or great coat the em-
broidery on the peaks of the cape of the fanner will consist
of a wreath of oak-leaves, the civil branches retaining the
present style of embroidery. [A faU description of the new
uniforms appears in yesterday's London Goulte.]

RiraroßAnox ro THZ Saavica —A lieutenant-
colonel, who has lately appeared before the public in a

colonel of militia.—(Taited Serrirt Gazette.

MEAD r. CAUNT.-THE TAILOR AND THE PUGILIST.

Mr. O'Malley and Mr. Bingham Daly appeared for the
plaintiff ; Mr. Huddleston and Mr. Laxton represented the
defendant.
This was an action tried once before, when the jury were
discharged without coming to a verdict. The plaintiff, a
tailor, in St. Martin's-lane, sued the defendant, the
landlord of the Coach and Horses, in the lame
locality, sod the ex-prizefighter, to recover 141. 18s. 6d.,
the value of clothes supplied. The defendant paid
81. is. 61.1. into court, and as to the rest pleaded
never indebted. The case fur the plaintiff was th►t a man
minted Butler, accompanied by the defendant's son, went to
his shop and ordered some clothes, the latter stating that
his father would pay for them. These goods amounted to
141. 16s. 6d., and on application being made to the defendant
he ordered a suit for hiu.self, and said he would then pay
the whole amount. The articles made for the defendant,
including an Inverness cape, came to 1:11.75., and an invoice
for the whole was sent in, when the plaintiff received 51. on
account. lie now brought the present action for the
balance.

The—defendant denied his liability exeept for the
clothes which be himself had ordered, and thebalance due
on which be had paid into court. His case which was
proved by himself, hie barmaid, hie son, and another wit-
ness, was that the other goods had been ordered to the cre-
ditor a man named Matchett, who was staying at the de-
fendant's house after his return from India, and whose ac-
count, chiefly for drink supplied, was 55/. for six days.
Matchett had left, owing the defendant this amount,
although the defendant admitted he had returned him pre-
viously 2,1001. which ho kept for safety, without deducting
the amount of his bill. He bad sued Matchett for the mo-
ney, and had, at the request of the plaintiff, included his
demand in the particulars, on the understanding that if he
did nut recover, the plaintiff should take back the goods
which had nut been worn, and which were produced in
court.

The jury, after hearing the evidence, which wu most
immediately found a verdict for the plaintiff
for the amount claimed.

NAPLES.

BADEN. Jou 6.

Notwithstanding the denials given by some
newspapers, it is certain that the Prince Regent
during the late conference here drew the attention
of the other sovereigns to the state of things in
Italy.
The King of Naples bad directed the Marquis
d'Antonini, the Neapolitan ambassador at Paris,
who is well known to the Prince, to request his
royal highness to defend in the conference the
monarchical interests threatened in Sicily.
The Prince Regent, in reply, gave the marquis
to understand that he acceded to his request, and
his royal highness not only remarked during the
conference upon the state of affairs in Italy, but
also caused an exchange of views on that question
to take place between the powers in the ordinary
diplomatic course.
London, England, 1860-09-01

PRUSSIA.

The Cologne Gazette, under the heading " Venetia
and German Policy," publishes an article which
may be looked upon as the programme of the Liberal
party in Prussia as regards the Italian question in
connexion with the interests of Germany.

Accepting u correct the statement that at the
Tosplitz meeting the Prince Regent of Prussia had
admitted the importance to Germany that Venetia
should remain to Austria, the Cologne Gazette pro-
tests against such a declaration, and against the con-
sequences it might lead to. It endeavours to prove
that Germany has not the slightest claim to the
posser.sion of Venetia, and that for Germany aa well
as for Austria the preservation of that province to
the latter would simply be a source of weakness and
continual danger. At the same time it advises the
Italians to leave Venetia alone until the other
Italian affairs are settled, as if too much is at-
tempted at once nothing will be obtained. .

THE EARL OP CAITHNESS AND HIS
LOCOMOTIVE.

In his 'Dailey tow the north, Lord Caithneee
let will some very laughable incidents. In one part of the
Highlands he observed • man with • horse and cart ap-
proaching, but still at • considerable distance. As the
parties drew nearer, the borne and cart came to a stand-
still, mad the driver was seen intently watching the pro-
gress of the carriage, as it came puffing cowards on a
fine level piece of road. When hie lordship was within
about • hundred yards of Lim, he appeared in the
greatest trepidation. Ile looked here, and there, and
everywhere, in a date of complete bewilderment, and at
last bolted, leaping a fence, and running a considerable way
over an open space of ground, till he came to a ha bushes
of underwood, where he ensconced himself. The horse ap-
pearing to possess more sagacity than his master, looked on
matte's with a phibieophic eye, and stood uninovid on the
middle of the road, scrutinising the party mid the
machine, so they pawed with the inquisitiveness of a con-
noisseur. `Some tune elapsed before the roan was to
leave his retreat, and when he did appear he
move with caution, and to have 'tramps misgiviamiY to
the singular object' which he had seen. On arriving at, a
certain country inn, his lordship was surprised to Ind so
great a stillness about the place, that sot a creature was
wipe seeu anywhere, and every door was shut. His lordship
left the carriage, and knocked at the door of the inn, but
he knocked long and loud before any one answered. At
last an elderly female, evidently put forward as the
rnouth.piece of the party within, pus her head in t of a win-
dow, and asked very pertly what he wanted. His lordship
told her that be limbed to romaip there over the night.
The -beldam replied with a jeer of the most tantalising
kind, "Ns, na, we'll hme nothing to do wi' playactor
fault ; we've had enough o' trouble character' u' your
kind already," and abutting the window with a triumphant
air, and with some force, she dieappeared. His lordship
stood fur some time endeavouring to convince the inmates
that he was in no way connected with play-actors, but
whether he wee heard or not, the same Malmo' prevailed-
His lordship, seeing that further argument was melees,
stepped over • few fields to the house of a neighbouring
fanner, with whom be was acquainted, and dated to him
the nature of the mistake. The farmer won returned with
the earl, and was nut long in convincing both mine host and
mine hostess of their error. Of course at thousand apologies
were made to the earl and his countess for the whorll way
they had been treated, and as awe malediutioas
hurled at the head of the ostler, who, on the first appear-
ance of hie lordmhip's carriage coming steaming onward. in
the distance, hail alarmed the whole establisiiment by
calling out • Playacted' !"—Baistabire Jeered.

INTENDED RECEPTION OP Tlld PRINCE OP
WALES AT NEW YORK.

We laid before the public the other day a detailed
report of the proccetlin,,n of a meeting held at the Met
cheats' Book ou Tuesday. That meeting, convened for the
purport of taking into coutideration the propriety of mak-
ing arrampiments fur the reception of the heir-apparent to
the British throne, appointed a general committee, in
which body the city of New York is fairly repretented by
the men who have talon the moot promimmt part in
rah•ing this comniercial metropolis to the front rank among
tile great marts of trade in the civilited world. The move-
ment is a moat proper one. For yea,• the earn.
and fame of the city has been disgraced by
"reception committees" of the common council, and it was

THE HOME AND COLONIAL TRAINING
INSTITUTION.

The half-yearly Towhees' Meeting of this
valuable institution was hold in the Model Schools, t:my's-
inn-road, en Wednesday evening. These entertaiomente
are given by the students in training to the teachers
formerly trained et the institution, now in charge of
schools. Wedneedsv was only the second day after the
reassembling of the students at the close of^ the
holidays, and the present harvest holidays of the country
schools facilitated tits attendance of a large number of
teachers. The total number present was about 360, of
whom 210 are students. We rejoice to learn that the insti-
tution is quite full. ; it would be well for the country if its
funds admitted the reception of a much larger number. The
model schoolroom of the itutitution was decorated with
flowers, pietism, mottoes, and other pleasing devices adapted
to express the " Welcome" which formed an inscription
over the platform. The motto at the other end of the room
embodied the principle of school discipline, "Love -leads
where force cannot drive." The proceedings commenced
with the social meal of tee, and the arrangement. through-
out the evening wore the aspect of a friendly gathering, in
which it was impossible not to mark the thorough enjoy-
ment of all present.

SOUTHWARK.

Sartei Qr egorg, a young woman who described herself as
a servant out of place, was brought before kir. Burcham,
charged on her own oonfesaion with stealing a gold watch,
chain, mid a valuable diamond ring, from the person of a
gentleman, named William Anderson, in a brothel, Nu. lb,
William-street, Newington-causeway ; and George Frith, a
French poli4her, living at 13, Lacey-terrace, Penton-terrace,
Newington. was charged with receiving the same knowing
them to be stolm.

It appeared from the statement of Sergeant Gardner,
25 M, the acting inspector at the Stone's-end police-station,
that in the early part of April, 1858, the prisoner Gregory
was given into custody for stealing the watch, chain, and
diamond ring from Mr. Anderson, at No, 15, William-
street, Newiugton-eauseway, and utter several examinations
she wile discharged, owing to the want of evidence, and
non-production of the property. Yesterday, however,
she came to Lim and told him she wanted to tell
him all al.out the robbery. He cautioned her in
the usual way, and then she said that she went
with Mr. Anderson to a house in Wilhametreet,
and remained with him a considerable time, and during the
night she mid another female robbed him of hie watch,
chain, and diamond ring. She further added that the male
prisoner received them, and they were disposed of. Sergeant
Gardner locked Ivx tip, and sent Thomas, police.conetable
288 M, to the male prisoner's residence, and caused him to
be apprehended also. He now asked for a remand, to en-
able him to find Mr. Anderson ; and he Led no doubt the
property wonld he forthcoming.
Mr. Surcham remanded the prisoner until Tuesday next,
but accepted bail for the appearance of Frith. The required
sureties having been entered into he was liberated, but be
protested that he knew nothing whatever of the robbery or
the property.
The cal.: was accordingly adjourned until Tuesday.

LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

THE SIEGE OF GAETA

The Turin correspondent of the Nord of to-day
writes :—" It is perfectly correct that Russia,
Austria, and Prussia have urged the
Emperor of the French to keep his fleet before
Gaeta ; but, on the other band, it should be
added that the Cabinet of St. James' has issued a
vigorously written note, reminding the French
minister that the presence of Admiral Barbier de
Tinan has the character of a veritable intervention.
I know, from a good source, that the Emperor will
withdraw his fleet. A delay of a few days is
the result of the pressure which has been exer-
cised on French policy—a pressure, however,
which will not divert that policy from the course
which the Emperor has traced for it."
London, England, 1860-12-29

KING FRANCIS IL AND HIS EXILED

TROOPS.

The Gazette de Gaeta publishes the following
order of the day, addressed by King Francis 11.
to the Neapolitan troops now upon the Pontifical
territory :
Soldiers ! Separated from you by the force of events, my
affection will ever be with you. The remembrance
of your fatigues during the last eight months, and of your
glorious exploits, will never be effaced from my mind.
I am compelled to disband provisionally the
corps to which you belong. I have the firm
belief that vary soon you will le re-united, perhaps to fight
again, and increase the glory of the Neapolitan troops.
You carry medals on your breasts which attest your bravery,
and which recall the combat' in which you have given so
many proofs of your valour.

You are about to return for the present to your firesides,
where you will find your companions who, in fighting
valiantly in 1848 and 1849, gained the medals of Fidelity
and those of Sicily and of Rome. Unite yourselves with
them, and you will be respected and honoured like them
by all good and honest citizens. A day will certainly come
in which you will take up again the arms you now carry for
the defence of your country, your family, and your pro.
perty. (Signed) FitaNcois.

THE PEACE WITH CHINA.

Yesterday the Lord Mayor received the subjoinei
communication from Lord Elgin, under date of Pekin, Nov.
1. At that time Mr. Cubitt had not assumed the offioe of
chief magistrate, a circumstance which will account for rho
letter being addressed to him in his capacity of a member
of parliament, and as • private friend of the noble earl :
"Pekin, Nov. 1, 1860.

"My dear sir,—As you took an interest in my mission
to China, you may be pleased to hear from me that 1 ita
actually at Pekin, and that peace is concluded letweeo
Greet Britain and this country. China is now opened up
to Christianity and commerce, and if foreigners, both autho.
rides and private individuals, conduct themselves towards
the people of the country with consideration and fairway,
hope that all the advantages gained by the British treaty
of 1+4514, and supplemented by the British convention of
1860, will be retained, whatever dynastic changes take plan
in the empire.
" I hope soon to see you in London, and am meanwhile,
" Yours very truly,
"EVAN AND KINCARDINE.
"Mr. Alderman Cubitt, M.P., London."

The following letter has also been addressed by Lord
John Russell, Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, to the
Lord Mayor: _ _ _

"Yoreigu-ollice, Dec. 27, IQ).

"My lord,—l have the honour to soquaint you that
Mr. Loch, private secretary to the Earl of Elgin and Kin.
audine, arrived at the Foreign.offire this evening at 7
o'clock, with despatches from his lordship, enclosing a
convention putting an end to hostilities with China, signed
on the 24th of October last by his lordship with the pleni•
poteutiary of the Emperor of China.
" I have the honour to be, my lord, your lordship's most
obedient humble servant, "J. BussuL
" The Right Hon. the Lord Mayor."

Following an ancient custom, the Lord Mayor, on the
receipt of this communication, caused a copy of it to be
posted on the Mansioo•house, where, though its interest
had been anticipated by the newspaper press, hundreds
of people paused to read it dyeing the day.

ITALY AND HUNGARY.

There is at present a most active and extensive
system of recruiting for Hungary going on in
Naples, under the direction of Hungarian officers,
who have either remained in or come to Naples
for this special purpose. Almost all the officers
of the late Garibaldian army who have
enlisted are promoted a step in this Hun-
garian corps. Generals Turr and Eber, who are
both at Milan, are likewise actively engaged in
recruiting for Hungary. Milan indeed may be con-
sidered as the Hungarian head-quarters, but both
the Neapolitan and Milanese recruits receive
instructions to repair to Constantinople as the
common spot of rendezvous. Almost the whole of
Eber'a brigade has enlisted for Hungary. This is
likewise the case with the battalion formerly be-
longing to Tures division commanded by Major
Tanara. The corps of Garibaldi's Guides remaina
at Naples, where it would seem that Colonel
Missuri awaits the orders and, at the fitting
moment, the arrival of Garibaldi. The general
recruiting fora Hungarian campaign, likely to take
place at a very early period, is openly carried on.

AUSTRIA.
VIENNA, FRIDAY EVENING.
An autograph letter of the Emperor, dated the
21st inst., and addressed to the President of the
Imperial Chancery Court for Transylvania, orders
the immediate organisation of the Chancery and
also of the "Gubernitun" for the same province.
The RADIO letter also orders the assembling of a
conference of the most eminent persons from the
various classes of the different nationalities and re-
ligious oonfessions, to deliberate on the early organi-
sation of the Transylvanian Diet. The privileges
of this Diet are to be determined according to the
ancient public rights of the citizens, but within the
limit prescribed by the Imperial Diploma of the
20th October.

The said conference will also make propositions
in reference to the re-establishment of the fornier
administrative divisions of 'Transylvania and of the
(Aloes of Lord-Lieutenants (Obergeepaune) and
Chief Captains (Obereapitan) of the counties. It
will also discuss the re-establishment of the offices
of superior Royal Judges (Oberkouigsrichter), of
the Smirkler, and of the Saxon legal and adminis-
trative authorities (Sachsen-Stiihle).

The Vizier dc:clares that the complaints were
exaggerated. Tho Christians, he says, are not ex-
ceptionably oppressed, but the Groek clergy are
much to blame.

A commission of inquiry, under the presidency of
Ethem-Paoha, is to be named for Asia Minor.
The money market is still depressed.

THE SAXON 00'

AND COUNT

A letter from Dresden of the 26th says :—" It
was perfectly well known to the police
that M. Teleki came to Dresden to see
an Hungarian family. This family was pro-
vided with a regular Austrian passport, and the
police in giving the carte de sejovr to M. Teleki
knew perfectly well to whom they gave it.
They left him alone for some days, hoping
that he would oompromise himself by some poli-
tical move. Disappointed in this, they arrested him.
The Hungarian family was subjected to the most
minute search. They refused to allow M Teleki to
see them again before leaving, but permitted him
to write. In his letter the count said that lie had
done all he could to persuade the Saxon
government to postpone the extradition, feeling
confident that his friends at Vienna would
obtain from the Austrian government itself per-
mission to leave the country. The police would
not defer the extradition a single day, alleging that
they had the most formal orders from Vienna."

PESTH, Dre. 27.

The general oongregatiou of the city of Pesth has
resolved upon making representations to the Court
Chancellor to obtain the release of Count Laslimlaus
Teleki, or if this be not possible, to have bitn tried
by the Hungarian tribunals.
