HIR MAJBSTY AT ALDERSBOTT.

Yesterday her Majesty and the Prince Consort
rod trite paid what may be termed their second state visit
ets erases to the temp at Aiderrhott. As this wilt probably
he the last visit c f her Majesty this summer, the review
which takes place to-day sill be on the moat eatentive scale
which the camp resources admit of, IS regiments of infantry,
with 6of cavalry and 42 guns bring in the field to execute
the manomerre. In order, however, to spare the men
the fatigue and diat.-eas which would result from
rapid evolutions under a broiling sun, the troops
will 144 parade till 3 o'clock in the afternoon, the
sham fight commencing at 4 and looting till about 7 in the
mein". On Sunday her Majesty femme. at the Pavilion
and will attend divine service 'n the large church at the
South Camp. Oa Monday It le expect:ft that the Royal
party will visit the new camp at Woolmer, where three
or ter regiments with • small farce of artillery, which
will !coca Aldcrebott to-day (Saturday), will be under
canvas, and conforming precieeiy to the same field regu-
lati one as if cantoned out in actual terries against an
enemy. After isspecticg this camp her Majesty will
drive to Liohook, ► small station on the Woking branch of
the South-Western Railway, whence the royal train will
proceed direct to Osborne. Political variations seem to
hove affected lbw camp as well as everything else, for daring
no summer since it was that Lrmed have there been eo for
royal visits as during the present. This is almost to le
regretted, for at no time has the comp been better worth
seeing. All within the limits of the camp proper is a.
well ordered mad neat as if it formed pert of a gentlemen's
ground•,while the broth beyond, from Cove-common down
to the banks of the easel, ie dotted in regular lines with
the neat white bell tents of the brigades under canvas. The
total force of the camp division I. about 20,000 men of ml
arm•, and of this numb w nearly 19,C30 are atom illy in camp
or at Woolnor. Three troop. of horse artillery are attached
to the two brigades of cavalry, and one field battery to each
of the four brigade. of infantry. The heat during the peat
week has ben so Into no. at camp as to almost icerpaciee
the men i'rom doing anything. The wire and mercifel
arrangement, therefore, for the review of this day is hailed
ea a great bona—though, of course, th..re are some who
consider it di•plape a moat weer...wiry amount of considera-
tion for the troop., who in campaigning would have to face
an enemy in any west her, end ought, therefor', to do Ito
same now at Aldershott. By the same prams of reason-
ing, the men might as well be required to undergo a c erre
of Minitl bullets and sabre wounds, both of which. In addition
to sunstroke., they would have to face during • camp.igu,
though a practical acquaintance with them is hardly next-
eery just now.

THE AUSTRIAN LOSS AT SOLFERLNO.
The official accounts of the losses of the Anetrisn
army at the battle of Solferino give 81 offirers
killed and 442 wounded ; 2,094 priv►tes killed and
9,623 wounded; total loss, 12,240. Those who have
read the published correspondence from the Austrian
camp.will remark that the figures now given re-
present a smaller loss than eye-witnesses were pre-
pared to expect. The losses were nearly equally
divided between the Ist and 2nd armies. The
number of the prisoners made by the French, it will
be seen, does not enter into these totals.

MONDAY ZVI:XING.
Console, which closed on Saturday at 891 to
for the 6th of May, were first marked this morn-
ing 891 to 89/. A rise to 901 to 91 followed, and
the closing quotation was exactly 90, or 891 to 901.
For money a transaction is alleged to have taken
place as high as 91, the price for immediate
delivery being somewhat above that for the
account, owing to the continued investments.
The official business report is am follows:—
Three per Cent. Consols, for money, 891, 90, 891,
901, 901, 89/, 901 ; ditto, for amount (6th May),
891, 901, 8:1,901, 891, 901 ; Three per Cents. Rir
ducted, 89, 88/ ; New Three per Cents., 881,
89/, 881, 891; Bank Stock, 220; Indian Four per
Cent. Debentures, issued in 1868, 911; ditto, Scrip
of the new Loan, 90, 901, 90.
The scrip of the New Indian Loan, which closed
on Saturday at 6 to 6 dis., improved this afternoon
to 901 to 1, or say 41 dia., owing to numerous in-
vestments by bankers and others. The Four per
Cent. Debentures issued last year were quoted 91
to 1.
Excheqaer Bills were steady at 164. to 260.
rum. India Bonds were dealt in at 20e. to 100.
The transactions in foreign stocks were mare
numerous, arguing a somewhat more mottled state of
the market, but transactions are still attended with
considerable difficulty, and prices in few instances
exhibit any important improvement. Turkish stocks
were again fiat, the Old Six per Cents. closing at 63
to 66, and the New at 63 to 68. There were some
Half
for Spanish Bonds and Russian Fonvand-ei-
Hrtlf per Cents. Mexican Bonds closed at 16# to

171.
There is still little demand for bank shares_, and
the market is heasy in character. City Bank,
amongst others, were more offered to-day and lower.
Peninsular and Oriental Steam ilexes were
quoted at a reduction of about 21. London District

STATEMENT OF THE MINISTER OF WAR.

A telegram, from Berlin to Mr. Renter's office,
states that in yesterday's sitting of the Prussian
Chamber of Deputies the Minister of War made the
following statement:

" Government on the 26th of March last ex-
plained the point of view which persuaded them
of the necessity of ordering three corps dormer
of the federal contingent to be placed on a war
footing. Since that date political affairs have
assumed such a form that government have
deemed it their duty to extend the same measures
to the remaining six corps d'artnle, and the neces•
eery instructions have been already sent to the dif-
ferent quarters. Although government have for the
present communicated this intelligens, to the Chem-
.

Lem they have reserved a more detailed statement
of the position of political affairs, which will, how-
ever, be made to the house with the shortest possible
delay." _ .

Tie minister's speech was followed by the ap-
plause of the Chambers.

Tyrolese Chasseurs had been threatening the Vette-

CiaMines corps had repulsed them from Bonino, and
driven them as far as the first cantonitra of the
Stelei° Paw. The Austrians suffered considerable
loss. General Garibaldi's loss was 10 severely
wounded, and Cialdini's, 3 killed and 4 wounded.
Advice, have also been received from Locum) up

tion of their being employed for mercantile purposes

ANCONA IN A STATE OF SIEGE.

Advice. have been received by Mr. Renter from
Ancona to the 30th ult. General Calbermatten has
taken the command of the town, and declared a state
of siege. A general disarming has been ordered.

THE FRENCH SQUADRON OFF VENICE.
Admiral farina de la Gravies, who commands
the blockading squadron off Venice, has published
the following order of the day :

The admiral in command make* known to the division
that the siege fleet, commanded by Admiral Bottet.Wile
lawmen, and the squadron of Admiral Desfoeshe, have left
Toulon for the Adriatic. The division of the Adriatic
will therefore soon resume its place in that fine
sqoadron from which it had only been detached, and of
which it has had the honour of being the advanced
guard. Important operations will soon be undertaken.
The divieion of the Adriatic will endeavour to allow that the
I activity which it has been obliged to display during the
blockade has not caused It to lose any of the habits of order
sad of discipline which distinguish meals of war, and
to which the Commander•in•Chief attaches each great
value. Since its departure from France, it has fulfilled Its
mission with remarkable zeal and devotedoem, and owing
to its vigilance the communications between Trieste end
Verdes have been completely intercepted. In less than a
month it has captured 3s of the enemy's vowels, made 353
prisoners, and signified the blockade to 82 vessels either
neutral or provided with pause. This vigilance in naval
affairs has been a greet element of success. The admiral In
command congratulates the officers and crews of the veseele
placed under his orders on the results which they have ob•
Mined, end thanks them f r the zealous 00-operation which
they have afforded him on all occasions.

before verdict. In that cue the party_ had • tight to a now
trial if dissatisfied with the verdict. lie proposed to extend
the came river to parties after verdict.
The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said the bill wee • mach
more importeatene than sae represented by the hon. gen-
, donate. It was, in fact, a bill to assimilate the madam in
criminal CMS to that in civil—(hear, hear)—aud such a pro-
poi ahe felt bound to oppose. There was to practical
grievance which required redress. Any ass In which
it was considered a man had been improperly convicted
was carefully investigated by Vie Secretary of State. II this
bill became law, the greateet hardship would often be in-
flicted on parties. if a rich man was convicted, he would
carry the case from court to court; as by the bill the rale
nisi would opeMe as a stay of execution. If they gave the
defendant a r*ht to move for a new trial, they could not re-
fuse the same right to the crown, and they would then de-
prive the subject of the protection afforded by the rule that a
man once acquitted c mad not be questioned again.
Mr. 130111tER moved that the debate be adjourned.
Mr. Lonalleld eras capering his approval of the bill,
when the Speaker intetrupted him, it being then • quarter
to six o'clock.
The debate wee accordingly adjoureed.

TIIE PRUSSIAN PROPOSALS.

FRANKFORT, WrortsnAv.

It is stated that the proposals made by Prussia
in the extraordinary sitting of the Federal Diet on
the 4th inst. were the following:—

1. The junction of the 0.11 and 10th corps
d'armee to the Prussian army.
2. The appointment to the command-in-chief of
the four non-Prussian and non-Austrian Federal
corps d'armte.
3. The placing of all reserve contingents in readi-
ness to march.
London, England, 1859-07-07

THE CONTENDING ARMIES.

The Nord of this morning says :
" We have announced the junction of Prince Na-
poleon a corps with the army of Italy. His corps
passed the Po on the 30th ult., and proceeded the
next day to Piodeno upon the Oglio. The next day it
left for Goito,reaching that place on Sunday. Prince
Napoleon, on leaving Piodena, went direct to Volta at
which the Emperor's headluarters, since transferred
to Valeggio, were then stationed. The following were
the positions of the different corps before the march
upon Verona :—The sth corps (Prince Napoleon's),
and the 3rd (Canrobert's) were at Goito ; the
9nd corps (MacMahon'e) at Valeggio, and the let
with the Piedmontese army before Peachiera. This
fortress is cannonaded day and night by the army
which has completely invested it, and to which will
shortly be added the gunboats of the Lake of Garda.
The montane* cannot be very prolonged.
The Austrian army is massed entirely round
Verona, and also in great part behind the Adige.
The French army has advanced in that direction, and
the blow which will be struck at Verona will decide
the fate of Venice.

We learn from Pafis that the Minister of Marine
is engaged with redoubled activity upon the maritime
armaments. The ocean fleet fa to be increased from
ten to twelve vessels, and the arsenals of Cherbourg,
Brest, end Toulon have received orders to construct
a cert►in number of new transports, intended to
receive 6 000 min each, to be ready within the
course of four months."

DANISH NEUTRALITY.
Mr. Renter hu received the following :
"COPENHAGEN, Jutir 6.

" Government has replied as follows to a detailed
demand of the society Orosserer (society of mer-
chants) Even if the contingent of Holstein be
obliged to join in the war, the Danish government
will neverthelsee maintain the neutrality of Den-
mark and Schleswig, to which resolution the Great
Powers have already agreed. Government aims at
obtaining from the Great Powers additional sanction
to an uncontested neutrality.' "
