THE DANZ ESTU2NB•

(From the Economist el this day.)
If it were not for the facts that a large portion of
the drain of bullion which has taken place during the lag
fortnight, has been for internal, and not far foreign demand—
that the exchanger are now all favourable to this country,
and such as are likely to lead to en early return of much at
the bullion that has ahead, been shipped—that in Scotlandand Ireland madames is so fer restored that a considerable
portion of the gold wet thither may soon be restored to the
Bank, a considamble amount having already arrived kora
Scotland since them accounts were made up—and lastly,
that considerable snivels front Australia are now taking
place, end that others may noon be looked for—we should
be disposed to view the condition of the Bank, with its
reduced amount of bullion, es being far from satisfactory,
and as indicating the necessity for some further rise in the
rate of discount. As it is, with these terowebis prospects,
it is to be Doped that the present insnaldent morn will.
without any new restriction, be increased considerably by •
return et gold, and the subsidence of that state of anxiety
and distrust which have added not a little to the paeans
ceased by the events of the last month.

EXPLOSION AT MAYENCE.

The powder magazine of the Federal fortress of
Mayenoe, op the Rhine, blew up at 3 o'clock on the
afternoon eirthe 18th instant. The magazine was
situate near the °author Gate. The number of
persons killed and wounded is very considerable,
but no official list has yet been published. Three
churches have been seriously damaged. The shock
was felt at Wiesbaden, at the other side of the
Rhine.

A supplement to the Mayence Gazette says:
"The °author powder magazine has just exploded
with a terrible detonation. The upper part of the
town, the Koestrich, and the Gang:rain are in rains.
The church of St. Stephen has been destroyed. This
terrible disaster has mused the death of many per-
sons, and deprived numerous families of home and
shelter. The whole town is in a state of consterna-
tion."

" Travellers," says theCo/ogna Gazette, "who have
just arrived from the scene of the catastrophe state
that the magazine ordained 75,000 kilogrammes
of gunpowder. Not only have the windows in
every part of the town been broken, but even in
the surrounding villages.. Enormous blocks of
stone horn the ramparts have been carried to an
incredible distance. It is dangerous to walk in the
streets on account of falling houses. The explosion
wee distinctly heard at Bingen."
The Indlpendartee Beg, has the following:
" A terrible explosion has just taken place at
Mayence. The damage is estimated at more than a
million of florins. According to credible informa-
tion, two Austrian and nine Prussian soldiers and
14 civilians were killed; 74 Prussian and 94 Aus-
trian soldiers and 300 civilians more or lees dan-
gerously wounded."

STRANORBS' EXIEWD SOCIETY.

This society, which visits and relieves by means of
an extensive staff of visitors and sala thou cases of suffer-
ing oecesioned by sickness w occur in the poorer
d erica' of the metropolis, mod which but for such an agency
would remain unknown and unrelieved—the honest pride of
the sufferers inducing a desire to conceal their poverty—
celebrated its seventy-second anniversary last evening, at
Exeter-hell. P. Bruns Hall, Esq. presided, and, in open-
ing the proneedings, amakd to the liberality of the sub-
mitten and to the Le paUlo generally, on the ground
oft increased claims which daring the winter were sure to
be made upon the society's funds consequent on the
went of employment which the financial pressure of the
times occuioned. The semetery read the report, which Mated
that although the sanitary state of theme ropolis bad been
generally favourable during the past ythe falling off in
UN demand for labour in many departments of industry had
canoed a considerable lemma in the number of claims made
upon the society, and in the number of cues visited and re-
lieved. The total number of cues in which visits had been
made and relief extended in the year was 6,758, besides about
600 which were on the books at the beginning of the year.
The number of visitors engaged by the society in carrying
out its °pastimes wee 370 ; the number of visite made by
them, 31,476;_ and the amount distributed in relief,
1,7861. 19s. The general statement of account showed

ture was 2,0761. 13e. The Rev. Mr. Rattan oheerved
that the scrfiety presented one feature which wax unique,
and which entitled it to support beyond all others. It was
not denominational—was connected with no religions sect to
the exclusion of others, and extended its relief alike to Chris-
tian, Jew, Turk, sad infidel. He moved the adoption of the

'pack That in anticipation of important changes
in ths goveinment of our Indian empire, this meeting
deems It important to give espreexion to the opinion that
the only policy adapted to the circumstances of that country
is one which shall, ci

any kind of 'rapport to the religionopinion& and rites of the

TURKEY.

The change in the Turkish ministry is considered
to indicate a decided triumph of French influence
over Anglo-Austrian policy at Constantinple. A
letter from Constantinople dated July 25, received
(by way of Trieste) this day, gives the follow-
ing account of some of the circumstances which pre-
ceded the downfall of Reschid Pasha's cabinet :
After the last meeting of the Council of =Joiners the

THE PRINCIPALITIES.

The Moldavian Gazette of the 11th (23rd) of
July contains &decree appointing Alexander Stourdza
Prefect of Polio, in place of Colonel Alkazi, one of
Prince Vogorides' aides-dc-camp. This news is im-
portant, it appearing from private letters that
Colonel Alkasi resigned in disgust at the Caituaran's
violent policy.

The Pays states that Mr. Murray, the English
minister, arrived at Teheran on June 7, and was re-
ceived with the honours previously agreed upon.
It was said that Mr. Murray, after re-organising his
legation, would leave for England en range.

EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

(nor ova owx

PARIS, MONDAY EVENINO.
Great preparations are making at Haire for the
embarkation of the Emperor and Emprem. The
corporations of the town will embrace the opportu-
nity to send deputations to their Majesties. A tri-
umphal arch of extraordinary dimensions is build-
ing. A flag hoisted on the Hotel de Vile will bear
the dates 1818, 1787, 18M—commemorating the

Leta that Havre was founded in 1516, by Francis 1.,
enlarged by Louis XVI. in 1787, and embellished in
1864, by Napoleon 111. The Ooeland has arrived
from Brest with a band of fourteen musicians for
the imperial yacht. Havre, now the greatest com-
mercial city of France, is quite a modern town. In
1509 it was a mere collection of fishermen's huts.
An Italian poet's description of Venice is not inap-
plicable to Havre in its transformed state:

A telegraphic despatch received at Havre, states
that the Emperor and Empress will arrive there at
four o'clock on Wednesday afternoon.
At the Bourse the Rente was heavy in the morn-
ing at yesterday's quotations, the fall in Consols
checking the inclination of speculators to operate
for the rise. A good deal of limner was, however,
manifested at the close, the Rente being finally
quoted at 67fr. for cub, and 13.7 fr. 30c.

NEWS FROM LIJCKNOW AND

DELHI.

TRIAL OF THE KING OF DELHI.

INDIA HOUSE DESPATCH.

DATED CAGLIARI.

Intelligenoe from Calcutta, of 22nd October, 18.52 :
Important papers had been found in the Palace at
Delhi. Nothing, however, of data anterior to the
outbreak at Meerut.

A Commission has been issued for the trial of the
King; and it was uncertain whether any promise
of his life had been made.

Sir J. Lawrence superintends the administration
of the Delhi territory.
Colonel Greathed's column arrived at Alloy Forek
(fourth ,) October, defeated the fanatics there, and
marched on to Akrahad on the sth, which they de-
stroyed, and reached Agra on the 10th, where they
were attacked suddenly by the mutineers (Under°
and Ghopar), whom they soon defeated, with the
lose of thirteen guns and all their camp equipage,
driving the survivors across Khcrec.
The latest date from his camp is 14th October,
when he had crossed the Jumna, and was making
the best of his way to Lucknow.
_

Indian (write ?) on the 10th of October that the
mutineers of the Owalior Contingent were marching
towards Cawnpore rio 'hung.
_

The intelligence from Lucknow is 13th October.
General Outram had urgently applied for large sup-
plies and reinforcements to be organised at Annus-
bamek, about four miles from the Residency, in
preference to Cawnpore.
_ _

. _
Communication between Allumbamek and Cawn-
pore quite open, but not between Allumbamek and
the Residency, in the neighbourhood of which the
whole rebel force is concentrated.
A convoy of provisions reached Allumbamek safely
on October 6, from Cawnpore. About 3,000 or 4,000
fugitives from Delhi, with four guns, were expected
to reach Sheorajpore, near Bithoor, on October 19,
but, on the same day, a force of GOO men with guns,
from Carl-spore, attacked the rebels, and utterly
dispersed them.
Bajoinh Sing, it is certain, has turned against us,
and it is supposed that most of the Farge Tallookdars

have alho. Accounts from Rajah of 16th October,
stating that Lieutenant Osborne's house was threat-
ened with about 2,000 rebels, who were deterred
attacking him from the preparations he had
made.

A wing of the lith Madras Infantry, with two
guns, was ordered to march to his relief, and arrived
at the Cuttra Pus, and his position improved.

The Europeans at Sangor are gill in the fort, and
relief urgently required.

Tho protraction of the contest before Delhi had
begun to tell on the population of Ahepursaub.
Nothing from Rajpootana, Central India, Bendel-
mud, Hyderabad, or Nsgpore. No accounts from
Bombay of 13th November, 1857. Two more of the
king's KIWI have been sentenced to be shot, and
execution was to take place on 13th October.
The Bheels at Chaudup have diaperued, and tran-
quillity prevails throughout Gourjeret.
The Bheels are still in rebellion at Nassick, on the
frontiers of Kadkandash. All quiet in Scinde, Bom-
bay, Madru, and the Nizam's dominions.

REPRESENTATION OF BIRMINGHAM.

On Saturday a large meeting of the liberal elec-
tors of Birmingham took place, for the porpoise of discussing
the choice of a successor to the late Mr. Moats. Mr. Alder-
man liodgmn presided. Mr. Aldermen Lloyd introduced
the name of Mr. John Bright, whose services in the cause of
commercial freedom and general promos Mr. Lloyd thought
peculiarly qualified him fora ropreeentative of Birmingham.
Admitting that Mr. Bright's view, on the peas question
differed from those of the constituency generally, Mr. Lloyd
thought this a minor oonaideration, so there was no fear
of the peace party becalming too powerful in the House
of Commone. Mr. Aldermen Manton, Mr. Wynn, Mr.
Harrison, Mr. Holland, and other gentlemen strongly sup
ported Mr. Bright's name, which was most favourably
received by the meeting. Mr. Stinton and Mr. Hill con-
tended that Mr. Bright's views oa the peace question unfitted
him for the repmeentation of Birminglam, and wired that
to bring forward Mr. Bright would divide the liberal interest.
Mr. Stinton spoke in favour of Mr. Layard, but that gentle-
man's name was coolly received. Mr. Mman Lowden
and Mr. Oveyther were for some " local man." Mr. Att-
wood, who was present, and had been spoken of, covered
his determination not to come fanfold, and it was intimated
by one or two speakers that Mr. Matthews, of Corbym's
Hall, was not "up to the man on the Jew iv:welkin."
The meeting wee adjourned till the evening, when it wee
again very numerously attended. The feeling of the
anembly woo again very strong in Mr. Bright's favour, and
it was ultimately agreed to hold a public; meeting in the
Town-hell on Tuesday.
