PRINCE PLANS.

The addition of M, Clement Just to the company now
acting at the B'. laren's Theatre has calmed the production
of two piece*, in both of which he mutates the prinoimi
character. Both are familiar to the Beglish public, thanks
to dictionaries and phrase books. The rne' L Courrier da
lfM literally rendered " The Courier of Lyons," was pro-
duced b.ith et the Princess's, where Mr. Charles Kean
played the leading pert, and at the Adelphi, where Mr. Leigh
Money distinguished himself by the " double" impersona-
tion. The other piece, Zr /Hemline its Diable, was well
adapted by Mr. Palermo Sharon, and produced under the
title of " The Bitch Bair," at Devey-lane.
M. Clement Just r s bir evens* actor, but he certainly
pommies no claim to the prominence which is accorded to
him among his eollsegura. Indeed the intended " stars" of
this company are to melity its weakest members' and neither
M. Juat nor Mdlle. Davin, whose nemes are proclaimed in
all the glory of capital lettere, is to be compared for real
artistic excellence with M. Edouard Petit, an actor of old
men, or M. Julien, the representative of s.upid counh7 lore.

The Press* says in its weekly commercial review

The aspect of della is more favourable than it was at the
end of June. Although many homes are now occupied with
their inventories, there is a certain degree of animation in
hatless!. The Beat/mire fair la expected to be brilliant.
The Lyons manufsctuters are doing a fair amount of work
foe Part,, but their olden for the United States bare very
much fallen off, the New York Make baring raised their
discount*, In order to put a check upon the tot great a:pen-
sion of trade. Our Importa have increased considerably
within the last six months; the latest returns show a figure
equal to that of 1857. Stocks are beginning to accumulate
In the warehouses, and it is to be expected that
neither France nor England will receive any con-
siderable demands for America for several mouths
to come. A good business has been done ►t Rouen
sad Mulhouse this week. There is a eight Till. in
cilia° stuffs, but prices are far from being in proportion to
the cott of the raw material. The increased import duty cm
sugars which came into operation on July 1 produoed a fall
at the end of Jane, Mc end holders wishing to get rid of
their goods odder the old tariff. Less business has been
doing alone July I, but prices have not changed. Wines,
more particularly those of the south,are still looking tsp. The
temperature daring the blooming season was not very
favourable, and in consequence we may already anticipate a
crop below an average in point of quantity; but if the pre-
sent hot weather continua!, the quality will probably be vary
good. Corn is hirer, owing to the splendid harvest weather.

SPAIN.

The Madrid journals of the 7th state that, as a
result of precautionary measures taken by the
goveinment, all fears of revolutionary movements in
Andalusia have °eased. The junta on the defence of
the kingdom, which was nominated some time ago,
has disapproved a project for constructing a railway
from Huesca through the Pyrenees, ria Gabarino, to
join the French lines, and it has done so on the
ground that such a line would compromise the safety
of the country, by facilitating invasion.

PORTUGAL.

ma.)
LISBON, JULY 6.
The accounts from the country still represent the
vine disease as increasing and giving evidence of be-
coming this year more virulent than it was last ; the
olive crop, which showed so well a short time ago,
now exhibits signs of disease. This untoward state
of affairs is chiefly attributed to the prevalence of
unseasonable rains during the month of June, which
were followed up by hot dry weather. There seems
now, we are sorry to say, rather a poor look out for
the commerce of the country, the chief supports of
which were formerly wine and oil ; now, with an
adverse exchange, having to pay for alt importations
in money, and a dull home trade, the prospects of
Portugal are anything but encouraging.
There are five Austrian vessels lying up here,
and at present they show no inclination to move ; it
is known that French cruisers are numerous in the
neighbourhood of the rock of Lisbon, and one of them
called in for coals a few days ago.
This packet takes for England the first mail under
the new system of reduced postage.
In foreign exchanges little alteration has occurred
since last mail, the Brazil packet, which arrived in
the interval, having brought but little paper for this
market. The rate on London opened at 62/ for 90
days, and closed at;, owing to the want of bills.
On the Continent paper has also been very scarce.
The quotations are as follows :—London, 30 days,
621 to i ; 90 days date, 52i to I. Paris, 541 to 543.
Genoa, 636 to 538. Amsterdam, 41$. Hamburg, 461.
In stock some transactions have been effected at
improved rates, and although limited, there have
been more buyers than sellers. The following are
the quotations :—Three pper Cent. Registered btock,

FATAL EFFECTS OF THE TrEATIIBR.

Yestetday the heat of the weather was severely
felt in the metropolis, and several cases of death from sun-
stroke were reported to have taken place at the east
end of Lusdon and the suburban distriets. Twat men,
named Oeorge And-reon and Theme Duncan, were at
work in a held at Stratford, when they were suddenly
prostrated to the ground by the extreme heat, and remained
inesamiole for come minutes. A medical gentlemen wee
called, but the two unfortunate men were dead. The
immediate cause of death seas mop:akin of the
brain. Information was alio forwarded by Mr. Webb,
the summoning offioer of Bt. Mary, Whltechapel, to
the coroner for East Middles; respecting the death of a
prow man who it was supposed died from the excessive heat
of the weather, and hie peculiar employment, at a auger
baker's no doubt scmimated the calamity. A number of the
ounetables belonging to the metropolitan pollee-fora, have
been iumpelled to relinquish their duties owing to the con-
tinual exposure to the rays of the man, sad many have com-
plained to their superior officers of the pain they endure
through wearing their heavy stiffened military etocke, which
are omorructed of leather. The men aloe, in consequence of
the orders of the elouniesionere, meet still keep ther thick
coats buttoned up round their necks and continue the
use of their leathern belts while on day duty.
Several persons while walking in the Regalia Pork, Hyde
Park, St. Jamert's Park, and Victoria Parke, were taken ill
from the powerful off, cis of the rue, and two respectably
dressed &make fell down in a state or inernalbility ebbe
promenading in the latter place. After a short time they

tions and position of the vanguard. The Emperor
then returned to Alessandria, and went this after-
noon to visit the battlefield of Marengo. His
Majesty enjoys good health, and the sanitary condi-

This was an action brought by Elizabeth Smith, a minor,
through her next friend, to recovsr 11. damages for a mod

desired her to go away. The child replied that she should
go as moos as abe picked up the jar and es eke roes

was pushed through by the defendant, which severely is-
Jared her eye. The poor child suffered met severely, and Is
still subject to the mated is.
Defendant (who le • machine-boy) said it was not wilfully
done. It arose entirely through accident. A lot of children
word always playing outside the printing-house and put log
saw-duct, tobacco-pipee, and herring-bones through the key-
hole. On the day in question he pushed the piece of stick
through the keyhole, he would admit, but with no intention

the door slit saw defendant throtigh the keyhole. He told
her to go away, and she mid she should as soon as she had
picked up her brother's jaceet. As soon.. her eye was upon
a level with the kihole he poked the dick produced through

eye. He laughed at her.

MADRID. TUMIDLY.

The official Correspondancia Asstographia says
that the Portuguese government has proposed to
Spain a treaty of alliance offensive and defensive,
but that the Spanish government has refused to fall
in with this proposal, alleging that the treaty be-
tween Portugal and England might compromise that
liberty of action which Spain intends to preserve.

PAPAL STATES.

Cardinal Milesi, legate at Bologna, has addremed
a circular to the governors and mayors of the pre-
vino', in which the following pamage occurs:
" The most eminent Cardinal and Secretary of
State (Antonelli), in a despatch of the 7th of this
month, writes to me as follows:
" ' On the occesion of the present events in Italy,
the French government, in order to allay apprehen-
sions and fears touching the Sovereign Pontiff
and the states of the church, has hastened to aesure
the Pontifical government, in the most formal
terms, that in the progress of the war his Majesty
the Emperor and his government will not permit
with impunity any act whatsoever contrary to the
respect don to the august person of the Holy
Father, or having for its object the destruction of
his temporal dominion. Whatever may be the
consequences of the events of the war in the North
of Italy, the attitude of the French government to-
ward the Pontifical states will be in all points con-
fined to the object which France had in view in
intervening to repair the disorders of the forme
anarchy.'

THE GERMAN STATES.

The Brow& Independemes, of yestarlay, contains
the following communication from Frankfort :

" The English government has addressed circu-
lars to its representatives at the small Oarsman
courts, and at Frankfort, in which it din:canto-
nanoes all aggressive sets against Franco. This
dispatch was read to Count Platen, at Hanover,
by the English envoy, and the latter being
accredited also to Brunswick, went to that city to
bring the circular to the knowledge of the
ducal government. At Hamburg, Mr. Hodges,
the &bang d'ajoiros, communicated the circular
to the Senate. Here at Frankfort the British envoy
to the Diet, Mr. Mallet , has made known this last
set of his government to several German envoys.
This step is regarded as another proof that England
will observe neutrality as long as risible ; bat it
shows, on the other hand, that this neutrality will
not be purely passive, and that England is deter-
mined to maintain her position u a great power, I
may mention that she has provisionally made some
reserves at Paris on the subject of the imperial ma-
nifesto of the 3rd, to the effect that her abstention
is not to be interpreted as a complete acquiescence
in the views and projects which that manifesto ap-
pears to indicate."

AUSTRIA.

VIENNA, Wiumasakr.

The official Austrian Correspondence says that
failing health was the only cause of Count Boors
request to be relieved from the office of Foreign
Minister. His resignation occasions no change in
the principles of Austrian policy, the aim and object
of which is to maintain Austria's rights, and to
recognise the rights of others.

MUSIC.

VOCAL ASSOCIATION.

The soesert of this exoellent society last eeenlog,
at et, James's Hell, wad of a highly haterest,ng character,
eassistbg entirely of classical works of great mailers, It
opened with Overture to Jpiiignsis i s dmlie, a flee
prelude to out of the noblest operas of • composer whose
works, at pretest, are by far too rarely heard. Then fol-
lowed Straitella's deeply pathetic sacred song, "
Signore," sung by Mies Black's with simplicity ►nd fevling.
Title sir is consented by tradition with • striking incident in
the life of its celebrated sod unfortunate composer. SM.-
della was loved by a young lady of noble berth, who forsoek
her family to share his fortunes. The pair were punned
from place to place by murderers hired by her vindictive re-
latives. On one occasion theraellowed him into a church
wham be was singing (it is said) this sir, and were so
salted by its tender sweats, that, instead of persisting in
their purpose, they avowed their errand, and warned
his of hie danger. Other massing were afterwards found
whet had less music in their sold% sad who, aiding me•s. to
ester the chamber of the young couple, stabbed them both to
the heart. Stredellea auk b not unworthy of his same.
♦ number of his melodies are extant . they are very simple,
bet full of deep and pmeonate expression. I. Arabella
Goddard performed Mosart's concerto in C major, one of
them exquisite emanations of genius and feeling which eau
sever lose their freshness and charm. The fair pianist bed a
wet cordial reception, end her superb perkessence was ap-
pleaded with the utmo't enthusiasm.

THE EAST.

Advises have been resolved by Mr. Reuter from
Constantinople to the 18th instant. The Porte has
at last, in conformity with the protocol of the Paris
conferences, promised to recognise Prince Coups.
The Slave population on the coast of the Adriatic
begin to show hostile feelings against Austria.
Three Turkish war steamers have been despatched
to the Adriatic.

We learn from other sources, that the Turkish
government is still continuing its armaments.
Camps at Schamla and Sofia are in course of organi-
sation. The former will, it is said, be composed of
from 16,000 to 20,000 men, under the command of
Ismail l'aeha, and the latter of from 10,000 to
15,000, under General Osman Pubs, having under
him Tusin and Suleyman Paellas. These two places
have been axed on, because they defend the Balkan,
and in consequence of Bulgaria offering large re-
sources for an army. Notwithstanding all these
military preparations, the Porte declares its inten-
tion to preserve strict neutrality in the presect war.

amounting to one-tenth of all taxes paid on real pro-

der, stamped paper, mortgage inscriptions, potable
liquors, Se ,is impoeed both on the old and new
