the Mayoremd 'Aldermen were so much astounded at•the
singularity .-of this gross outrage, that they really did
nothing at all bnt exprisi by their countenances how much
hey were astonished. Of course the matter was referred
to the City Solicitor to look into the law, and then if it
prove to be as we have asserted, the Corporation will prc-
secute the matter to it.; fullest extent It is but just to
say that the pecuniary difficulties of the worthy Alderman
have arisen from the recent total destruction of his large

They write from Biarritz that the Empress, :who
has been making various ex 3usions and apparently
enjoying herself much, might he expected to leave
for Paris between the 25th and the end of the
month. Her sister, the Duchess of Alba, and the
Duke, now at Biarritz, would accompany her. It
was the Duke and Duchess of Medina Cell, not of
Alba, who arrived here yesterday.
M. Abbatucci would have presided in the Council

Jerome been appointed to do so. The latter, who
arrived in Paris last night from Havre, is going, it

to attend the meetings of the Council, instead of
the Ministers going to him, as they de to St. Cloud

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.
QUEBEC, Sept 10.

TIMBOIt : Messrs. Forsyth, Bell and Co.'s circular, of this
morning, says :—We have seldom seen a fortnight during
which the transactions in our port in the groat staple 'of our
trade have been on such a limited scale. A large number of
vessels sailed on the lst, and left the harbour very bare, but
within the last few days the arrivals have been num:Tons, and
there is every prospect of a fair fall fleet, which will doubtless
lead to more activity. Thd harvest in England is represented
as very good ; but for the depressing news from India, trade
would, no doubt, in consequence, be largely on the increase.
By the lost advices, however, there was no improvement in
timber, and the heavy stock now offering in the market, and a
dull demand, malt s us reduce the quotations of white pine by
one farthing to a halfpenny per foot, A lot of Boudiere of 80
feet average was sold at Bd, and a Bay of Q tine of 84 feet
average at 8..1. If, however, our fall fleet be as large as some
anticipate, the demand will soon be batter. Few raf,s have
yet to arrive,

Monday bringing no English pipers with letters
anal articles on Indian . affairs for comment or
reply, to-day's Paris journals find little to write
about, and few of them contain leading articles.
The Constitutioned takes rather a brighter view of
the Indian question than has been its custom of
late ; in an article, of which I subjoin an extract

A trustworthy person, who saw the reception
given to the Pope in more than one of the large
towns in the Romagna, assures me that the semi
official accounts of the enthusiasm of the people
were totally incorrect. The public either was, or
appeared to be, totally indifferent. " The charges
of maladministration which have been brought
against the Papal Government are perfectly well
founded, and the country can never be at peace
until reforms are made." Such is the language
of an extremely intelligent and Conservative Aus-
trio 11.
The Constantinople correspon lent of the Triester
Zeitung
.writes that many " Indian vessels" have
been lost in the'R Sea. Aecording to aivices
from Teheran, of the 15th of August, Murat Mirza,
the commander-in-chief of the Persian army in
Kviorassan, had assembled his army in a place
about three miles from Herat, where he waited for
orders to evacuate the province; but on receiving
news of a conflict -between the ShiiteS and the
Sunnites he rAnrned to Herat to restore order It
is related that the Shah intends to proclaim Prince
Emir Nizam ,heir to the throne. We also learn
from the Tutkish capital that Prince Daniel of
Montenegro had been assassinated, but the state-
ment can hardly be correct. At all events, no
news to that effect has reached this city. from
Cattare.

Great feults have doubtless been C3mmitt,d in the ad-
minis ration of India, and an amo int of egoism, or at
least of hee le;•snes.., has been tolerated which has led to
despotism. But if the laws of soun I morality have ben
sa ion4y outraged, the expiation has been great. The
Erglish, at times, treated the natives with sov3reigt con-
tempt. Confluent in theirctrength, they neglected the care f
their desrest interests; and the llanourab'e Comp.-nir must
at this mo nent bitter'y lament the slowness with which the
eons'ruction of railroads and roads, that would now p ova
invaluable, has been pushed during lite years. The
xparienee now so dearly purchased will doubtless not be
lost, and the terrible convultion which agitates the Indian
empire may prave the starting-point of a new era of pros.
perity for that colony. Many abuses, grown venerable with
time, wilt be swept away by this tempest, ror it is one of
ihe qualities peculiar to the genius of Englishmen never to
hesitate in probing the extent of a wound, and never to
rtct any measure, however tryi'g it may be, that can
produce a cure. India, it is to be hoped, wail no., return
into the hands of its former misters. England will re-
conquOr her ascendancy, and, enlightened by this terrible
etiiis, will consolidate her pcsition by uprooting the abuses
which have undermined her power.
The French papers publsh a letter, which
purports to give news from India that has not
appeared in the London journals. It says that
Nena Sahib had marched *on Lucknow, at the
bead of 14,000 or 15,000 insurgents. He was in
advance of General ITaveloek by four-days' march,
and it was' certain that he would have effected ,a
junction with the insurgents in Oude before
General Havelock could arrive. '1 he letter adds
that the citadel of Lucknow, which is occupied
by the British troop 3, is impregnable, and is
supplied with provisions for six months. Major
Banks, who took the command after the death of
Sir Henry Lawrenoe, was killed by a fragment of
a bombshell. _ _ _

DEALS are rather declining; flaated have been 'sold in the

considered as the rates.

FRANCE.

PARIS, TUERDLY FVENING.

Official intelligence has been received of the ac-
eeptence beethe Mexican Govern/I:tent of the prof-
fered mediation of England and France in the
quarrel between Mexico and Spain. The confe-
rence for the settlement of this matter is to be held
in London. This will probably not be very pleasing
to Spain, which would fain have had it in Machine.
The capital of one of the mediating nations is
manifestly the most suitable place. It i 3 not yet
known who will be the pleeipoteniaries appointed,
but it is presumed th.t Senor Lafragua will re-
present Mexico, he being completely au courant of .
the affair which he ha.s followed from the com-
mencement. -The whole personnel of the Mexican
Legislature at :Madrid is now in Paris.
In the total absenee of political news of import-
ance, small facts and causeries Irene Chalons obtain
attention. The stay in camp of the Deke.of Cam-
bridge seems to give fresh anima!_ion to the
.pro-
ceedings of the Imperial Guard. The rambles
wile daily return here from Chalons tell us of fire-
wet ks, illuminations, dances, and diversions of pll
kinds, and particularly of balloon ascents by the
brothers Godard, which seem a very favourite
amusement with the troops. -At six, on the
'day of the' Dulte's arrival, there was a great
dinner at the Imperial head-quarters, to
'which s#ll the Generals were invited. The
capital band of the Guides played • during
the meal.
.The table was laid for fifty, and, from
its position, the Emperor end his guests (could lee
seen at dinner by persons walking in the neigh-
bourhood. lA-. the evening the Emperor and the
Duke went to the Grenadiers' theatre, and were
loudly cheered on entering. The pieces played
wet e-the " Almoner of the Regiment, "gilt le Tale-
ehenr," and " Pic-nic of Auvergnats." In the first-
named vaudeville there is a passage where the
almoner, disguised as soldier, sings a couplet .to
t'ae effect that the Emperor takes the crowns of
all 'the Kings of Europe and- gives them to his
sildiers. This was received with frantic hurray, so
much so, says a paper, that the. staff appeared
rather embarrassed. The Duke of Cambridge
seemed greatly amused by the performance. At
its close, the Grenadiers, with torches, escorted the
Imperial and Royal visitors to their quarters. The,
first perAirmance of the " Arab Wedding" by the
Z waves was so suceessful that a second has been.
given ()a a larger scale, including various epi-
sodes Of Arab life under canvas. Yesterday the
whole of the troops made a Movement in the
elirection a the Suippe, s river which flows
along the northern limit_ of the camp, where
they were to bivouac two nights. The soldiers
have their tentes. d'abri ; it is not mentioned how
the officers will manage, but the movement is
considered as rather a bore. It was rumoured at
Chalons yesterday that the duration of the camp
would be prolonged to the 20th of October, but I
hear nothing of the kind stated here, nor is it
Probable. Thera is -a talk of extending the Camp
Branch Railway, which runs (with considerable
deviations from a straight line) nearly ,dunnorth,
from Chalons to Verdun, and thence to Metz
The ground for the line from Chablis to the
camp was got from its numerous owners on
the. following terms —they were paid for wha'-
ever crops were growing on it, and were also
allowed to remove them, and were guaranteed
eventual satisfactory payment. There was no time
for any more exact and final .arrangement. The
Ectipereit is very popalar in Champagne, and the
persants and other proprietors made no difficulty
in complying with these terms, which in fact are
very advantageous for them. _ _ _

The Emperor's return to the camp, after his visit
to Stuttgarit, is considered certain, but it can hardly
take place until the 30th, so that it is presumable
he will remain there but a short time. He leaves
S,uttgardt on the morning of thcr2B‘b, and makes a
pause at Metz General Reibell, who commands
the military division of which Strasburg is the
head-quarters, has been at the camp to take the
orders of the Minister of War with respect to the
Emperor's journay. Marshal R radon, who since
his arrival from Algeria has been at his estate in
the department of the Isere, has arrived in Paris,
and will go to the camp on the Emperor's return
thither.

Letters from Vienna say that there will be grand
cavalry mance,ivres at the Camp of Parendorf on
the 25th, 20th, and 27th inst., the Emperor of
Austria commanding. A number of persons of
distinction, including the diplomatic corps, have
been invited. M. de Bourqueney, having corn
municated with his Government on the subject,
has been authorised to accept the invitation.
