LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

[RETJTER'S TELEGRAMS.]

THE FRANCO-ITALIAN CONVENTION,
PARIS, OCT. 10.

The Constitutionnel of this morning, in an article
signed by M. Limayrac, opposes the views of ex-
parties who see in this Convention the fall of the
temporal power and the abandontr eat of Rome.
" This Convention," says M. Limayrac, " will be
executed in letter and spirit. Thinking otherwise,
the ultra-Italian press grievously insult the King
of Italy, as do the clerical press the Pope."

Under the title of Prince Perfume and Princess Bouquet
is nightly to be seen at the Canterbury Hall a IVlagic Spectacle
far transcending in poetry of concept on, b auty and In-
v enuity of arrangement, scenic effect, and brilliancy of light
and colour any former api lication (even at this Hall) of the
princiolekiiown as the OPTICAL ILLUSION. n this last
collective disp ay of scenic art and of brilliant choreographic
and statuesque grouping will be found pic'u, es surpas,in,g
some of the greatest achievements of the Modern Extra-
vaganza—Si e "THE S EIIPWREC IC," "THE PHANTOM

METROPOLITAN CATTLE.

There was a large supply of foreign beasts and sheep on
sale here to-day, in somewhat improved condition. On the
whole a fair average business was transacted in moat breeds
at full prices.
The arrivals of beasts fresh up from our own grazing dis-
tricts, as well as from Ireland, were moderately good.
Those from Scotland, however, were limited. The quality
and condition of the supply was superior to several previous
weeks, and the beef trade ruled steady, at full prices. The
best Scots and crosses realised 5s 4d per 81bs.
From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton-
shire we received 2,700 short horns, &c. ; from other parts
of England, 900 various breeds ; from Scotland, 9 Scots
and crosses ; and from Ireland, 500 oxen and heifers.
The show of sheep was on the increase. The condition
of the stock having improved, there was less activity in the
mutton trade, at a decline in the quotations of 2d per Sibs.
The general top figure for Downs and half-breds was 5s 6d
per 81bs. There were some really good Leicesters, Lin-
colns, and Kents on offer.
We were scantily supplied with calves, which moved off
steadily, at Thursday's advance in the quotations of 4s per
Sibs. Prices ranged from 434 d to 53 4d per Sibs.
Prime small pigs were in request, at full prices ; but large
pork was heavy, on former terms. The foreign pigs are
coming to hand in fair condition.:

THE KING OF OUDE.—The King of Oude is
described by the Calcutta Correspondent of the
limes as a very disreputable example of the retired monarch,
Ills estate at Garden Reach is in a disgraceful state. The
King owes about a million storlinr, although for ten years
past he had been receiving a revenue of £BO,OOO a-year,
During the whole of that period he has never moved out-
side the house but en two occasions, when ho went, against
his inclination, to the Fort. He spends his money on the
harem and rare birds—the collection in each department
it is said, being particularly large and varied.
PUTTING HIS SHOULDER TO THE WHEEL !
A Frenchman, we see in a French paper, has suggested that
the wheels of carriages could be used for spinning. He con-
siders that, ac present, a great deal of power which might
be usefully employed is thus thrown away,

COCKERMOUTII KESWICK, AND PENRITII

This new railway is now rapidly approaching
completion, some alterations required by the Go-
vernment inspector having delayed for some weeks
the public opening of the line for traffic. The line
commences at Penrith, about 18 miles south of Car•
lisle, by a junction with the Lancaster and Carlisle
section of the London and North Western Railway,
passes near the picturesque grounds of Greystoke
Castle, and round part of the base of the mighty
Saddleback. Crossing the vale of St. John's, and
passing over about half a dozen bridges, the line
enters Keswick, where a large hotel is being built
by the railway company. The run from Penrith to
Keswick will occupy about three quarters of an
hour. From Keswick the line passes through
Crosthwaite, close by the margin of Bassenthwaite
Lake, to Peel Wyke, and thence through the Vale
of Embleton to Cockermouth, and is there connected
by the short Cookermouth and Workington Rail-
way with the Irish Sea. In addition to a large
tourist traffic, however, the company expect a large
traffic in iron ore, the new line shortening the route
very considerably between the hematite ironworks
in the west of Cumberland and the furnances on the
east coast of England, the line being in close con-
nection with the Eden Valley Railway.

SAMBRE AND MEUSE.

The report of the directors states that the number
of miles run by the trains during the last half year
had been increased as compared with the corre-
sponding half of 1863, there was a diminution in
the number of passengers, and a slight increase in
the weight of the goods carried, though the amount
received had not been so great, for the low rates
told heavily on this kind of traffic. Notwithstand-
ing those drawbacks a considerable saving had been
effected in the working expenses, and the excess of
revenue would allow of the payment of 4s. per
share. Since the last meeting the agreement for the
amalgamation of the undertaking with the Est-Beige
and other companies had received the Royal assent,
and the line was handed over to them on the Ist of
July as agreed. Ureat progress had been made in
the winding-up of the accounts. The definitive
plans required by the Government to be sent in
were nearly all ready; and with the exception of
the outlay mentioned in the agreement for the ergo-
tion of permanent buildings in certain stations
where temporary ones only existed, no further ex.
penditure on capital account would have to be in.
curred. The directors congratulated the proprietors
on a state of affairs which freed them from any
further difficulty on money matters; and, while it
could never by any possibility become worse, must
gradually improve as the lines which had been lately
opened and those now in course of construction at.
rained full development. The revenue account
showed that £36,130 had been received for the half
year ending the 30th of dune last, and £17,382 cx-
a balance on the working of £18,748

THE KING OF OUDE.—The King of Oude is
described by the Calcutta Correspondent of the
inzes as a ver y disreputable example of the retired monarch,
His estate at Garden Reach is in a disgraceful state. The
King owes about a million sterling, although for ten years
past he had been receiving a revenue of £BO,OOO a-year.
Daring the whole of that period he has never moved out-
side the house but on two occasions, when he went, against
his inclination, to the Fort. He spends his money on the
harem and rare birds—the collection in each department
it is said, being particularly large and varied.

THE SIM, LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, MARCH 4, 1864.

THAMES.

A COUPLE or DISORDERLIES.—George Salmon, a la-
bourer, 25 years of age, with a bloated face, and Ellen Cun-
ningham, a withered old woman, both as dirty and dissi-
pated as it is possible to conceive, ►ere charged before Mr.
Partridge with being drunk and disorderly, and the woman
was charged in addition with breaking a large pane of plats
glass, valued at £3 103., in the window of the Roebuck
pnbliehouse, in Cannon-street-road, St. George-in-the-
East.

Mr. George Bruce, barman to the landlord of the Roe-
buck, said the male prisoner came into the house yesterday
evening, and conducted hi..aself in a very noisy and disor-
derly manner. The man was intoxicated, but knew what
ho was about. He Ejected him from the house.
The prisoner then remained outside and made
a disturbance. A taob of roughs, loose women, and
others collected, and a riotous scene was the consequence.
The female prisoner was the worst, and she took up a stone
and threw it at tho window. It struck a stout pane of
glass, and did not crack it. The woman then took
up a large piece of asphalte and hurled it at a large pane
of plate glass and broke it. The value of it was £3 or .£l.
Mr. Partridge—Are you insured ?
Witness—l believe Mr. William Sands, the proprietor of
the Roebuck, has insured his plate glass.

The prisoner Johnson said he was for three years in the
employ of Messrs. Taylor brothers, cocoa manufacturers,
and had been out of work twelve weeks; all he had to drink
yesterday was a half pint of beer.
Mr. Partridge said a half pint of beer would make no
man intoxicated. Ho should fins the male prisoner ss,
for being drunk and disorderly, and order the woman to
pay 255. towards the damage she had caused, and a fine of
53., and in default of payment to be imprisoned for one
month.
The pair were sent to prison.

PROPOSED REDUCTION IN THE ARMY,

On the motion for going into committee of supply,
Lord PALMERSTON appealed strongly to the hon.
gentleman opposite (Mr. Baillie) to postpone his motion on
/1-,e reduction of the army until after the right hon. gentle-
-man the Chancellor of the Exchequer had obtained his
first resolution for the necessary complement of men for
the army. The discussion on this subject might then take
place with greater advantage, and the hon. member would
have ample opportunity of using such arguments as he
might consider suitable to influence the house.
Mr. BAILLIE said he could not comply with the wishes
of the noble lord, and felt justified in bringing the subject
before the house on the present occasion. (Hear,
Bear, from the Opposition benches.) He objected
to the proposed reduction in the army on different
groutris. In the first place, he contended that the efficiency
of the army was not such as to warrant its reduction,
and the relations of the country to foreign nations was
not such as to render any such reduction desirable. It
was also, in his opinion, most cruel to our soldiers to compel
them to spend the greater portion of their lives in tropical
climates, to the detriment of their health, and merely for
the purpose of reducing the national expenditure. As the
greater portion of the army were stationed in such climates,
and instead of having their service abroad diminished,
it would be increased if the proposed reduction were
effected. The hon. member having described the effects
produced on soldiers by a residence in certain latitudes,
denied that the House of Commons generally were in
favour of a reduction in the army, and he designated the
same as an attempt to acquire popularity at the
expense of the brave defenders of the country. He con-
cluded by urging on the house to reject any attempt to
decrease the army at the present time and under existing
circumstances.
