French Academy of Sciences•

At the last sitting a paper was received from M.
Tournouer on the southern part of the asteria or
star-fish beds of the basin of the Garonne, in the
arrondissements of La Reole and Marmande. This
lime formation, with subordinate strata of Ostrea
longirostris, rests on a lacustral lime-bed, containing
other species, besides the Palopiptherium, which is
to be found at Aubiac, near Duras. On the border
of the star-fish formation, in the vicinity of Mon-
segur, interesting remains of terrestrial vertebrata
are found mixed up with marine ones, such
as the Halitherium, Aceretherium, Dremo-
therium, etc. In the environs of Meilhan
(Lotet-Garonne) there are nummulites and oper-
culines in vast numbers, forming a regular yellow
sandy bed. M. Tournouer is of opinion that a
portion of the tertiary strata near Vicenz should
be detached from the lower tertiary formation,
since it contains many organic remains not met
with in the latter.—M. /loupe sent in a map of
the eruption of Mount Etna in Feb., 1865, with
the details of all the surveys, barometrical and
magnetic readings, &c., taken by the author.—
A letter was received from Professor Silvestri
concerning the great earthquake which occurred
on the 18th of July last at 10 p.m. near Catania
in Sicily. Although upwards of 200 houses were
destroyed within a belt of land about a kilo-
metre in breadth, and extending in a direction
from W. to E., no shock whatever was felt at
Catania itself.—M. Aucapitaine wrote to contra-
dict the opinion, first emitted by Bruce, then by
Dureau de la Malle, and confirmed by Dr. Guyon,
viz., that the Kabyles of the Aoures are the descend-
ants of the Vandals, having their white complexion,
blue eyes, and light hair. The author of the letter
contends that these same characteristics are to be
met with among all the Berber tribes that inhabit
the various mountainous districts of Tunis, Algeria,
and even Morocco. In his opinion they are de-
scendants of the Ifyksos, who, coming from Asia,
ravaged the valley of the Nile for a long time, and
were at length driven further west. The Academy
received a paper from M. Mantazzoli on the tri-
section of the angle, a question as likely to be solved
as the quadrature of the circle. It was of course
rejected, it being one of those ridiculous subjects
the Academy does not take notice of.

EGYPT.

ALEXANDRIA, July 29.

Alexandria is now almost entirely free from
cholera, and the shops, whose proprietors fled from
the city at the outbreak of the epidemic, are being
reopened.
The deaths in the city on the 27th inst. were 37,
of which only four were from cholera, and on the
28th 31, of which two were from cholera.

The great caravan of pilgrims, bearing the carpot
from Mecca, has made its entry into Egyptian terri-
tory at Accaba, where it underwent a primary and
rigorous sanitary visit.
It next stopped at Nehil, half way on the road
between Accaba and Suez, arriving at the latter
place on the 23d inst. A second medical visit by.
the Suez physicians showed that the sanitary con-
dition of the caravan was satisfactory.
On the 26th instant it arrived at the station of
Birket-el-Hag, where it underwent a third and
minute investigation by a medical commission ap-
pointed for that purpose by the sanitary administra-
tion. his visit was likewise attended with the most
satisfactory results.

The solemn entry of the carpet into Cairo took
place on the 27th inst. From the time of its depar-
ture to its entry into Egypt the caravan has always
been accompanied by a physician, an ambulance,
and nurses.

Thus followed, step by step,'by the delegates of
the sanitary administration. This great caravan
has not on its return inspired the public with any
serious uneasiness. •

The caravan consisted of about 5,000 persons and
6,000 camels.

Letters from Tangiers, of the 9th July, announce
that the consular body had ordered a quarantine of
seven days for all arrivals from Alexandria. In case
of death or sickness during the voyage the vessel
must immediately leave the port.
The Egyple says :---" It is stated that on the 29th
inst. the Government sold, at 120 piastres per ardeb,
a large quantity of pure wheat. The trade price of
an ardeb of wheat of the same quality has varied for
some time from 400 to 500 and 500 to 600 piastres.

TAT TERSALLS'—IasT EVENING.

Even those who wore most inclined to speculate on
future events experienced considerable difficulty. What
with the general cry that betting, except at the post, is a
"farce and a snare," and the stereotyped quotations only
tend to trap the unwary, backers of horses are beginning
to have their eyes opened at last. The speculative prin-
ciple seems for the present to lie dormant, and, judging
from the existing state of things, it will be a long time be-
fore matters assume a legitimate and healthy tone.
The " good week" at Goodwood was followed by a very
dubious time of it—for backers—at Brighton and Lewes,
and the consequence was that the prospects of a good set-
tling on the ducal gathering were marred by the reverses
of the succeeding week. The afternoon was almost en-
tirely devoted to the adjustment of accounts—in many in-
, stances a bootless enterprise—and the only transactions in
the betting way which came under our observation were
the following :

ST. LEGER.
Even agst Gladiateur (offered)
9to 1 agst Regalia (offered—take 10 to 1)
100 to 8 agst The Duke (taken)
DERBY.
1000 to 25 agst Lord Lyon (taken)
1000 to 30 agst Beelzebub (taken)
1000 to 35 agst The Primate (taken)
1000 to 35 agst Monarch of the Glen (taken)
10,000 to 200 agst Strathconan (taken)

TILE DISPUTED HURDLE RACE.—The following notice

The Price of Gold.
The quotation of gold at Paris is about 11 per mine pm., and
the short. exchange on London is 25.17 a per £1 sterling. On
comparing these rates with the English Mint price of £3
178. 100. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is
rather more than 1-itth per cent. dearer in Paris than in
London.
By advic:s from Hamburg the price of gold is 428 per marl
and the short exchange on London is 13.73 per £1 st(rlin
Standard gold at the English Mint prico is, therefore, about
3-10ths per cent. dearer in Loadou thrn in hamburg.
The course 01 exchange at New York on London tor bills at
60 days' sight is ltEl to :09 per cent, At these rates there is
no profit on the importation of go'd fr,m the Unified States.

Haymarket Theatre.

Mr. Walter Montgomery is carrying on his sum-
mer season at this theatre with the greatest energy
and success. The successful burlesque of " Ixion,
or the Man at the Wheel," has just been produced
with more than pristine splendour. The author has
retouched up the puns and witticisms, the effect of
which is to give a freshness to the piece, and thus
we have allusion to the Atlantic Cable, Epsom
Races, Earl Derby's " Homer," &c. The cast of
characters comprises nearly all those ladies engaged
in its first performance at the Roy_alty—thus we
have the Misses Pelham, Miss Lydia Maitland, Miss
Helen Howard, the first appearances being Miss C.
Denvil, Mrs. St. Henry, and the Hon. Mr. Wingfield.
The debut of the two ladies was a complete success ;
but with respect to the gentleman we cannot say
the same. On the contrary, it was a pointless and
unsatisfactory exhibition ; and whatever attraction
i the sock and buskin has for the Hon. Mr. Wingfield.
he may rest perfectly certain that he has mistaken
his vocation, if he, as we believe he does, intends
to make it his profession. The burlesque has been
mounted in magnificent style, and its performance
gave unbounded satisfaction to an overflowing
audience.

EVADING A PLovlso IN AWlLL—General
S—'s fortune was settled upon his daughters,
with the proviso that in the event of either of them marry-
ing a peer the greater part was to be forfeited; a precau-
tion probably adopted from the general's apprehension that
his children would be sacrificed to prop up the fallen for-
tunes of a needy patrician, and not in-contemplation of his
daughter's hand being sought by one of the wealthiest
nobles in the land. Whatever the reasons, the difficulty
was adroitly surmounted by the simple process of the
duchess making a present of her fortune to the duke, and
then marrying him.—Frazer's Afagazine for August.

AQUATICS.

The Championship of the Thames.

The great race for the championship of the River
Thames was rowed to-day by Henry Kelly of Fulham and
Robert Chambers of Newcastle—the champion of both the
Thames and Tyne. The stakes were £2OO a side, and a
bet of 300 to 200 on Chambers; the course, being the time
honoured one, from Putney to Mortlake. The attendance
of the public at Putney was something extraordinary, and
when each of the competitors made his appearance he re-
ceived the loudest plaudits. The feeling seemed to be
greatly in favour of Chambers ; this, doubtless, was owing
to the circumstance of his having already conquered Kelly
and thereby taken from him that title which the Thames
watermen look upon with so much pride. Kelly, however,
has proved himself a thoroughly plucky sculler, and from
the settled determinatiOn there appeared to be on his part
to regain his lost honours a great number of persons
placed their dependence and their money on him, with
full assurance that all that mortal could do would be done
to-day.

The routine arrangements having been completed, the
competitors proceeded to toss for the choice of station,
which Kelly won, and he accordingly selected the Middle-
sex side, piloted by Drewitt, Chambers being taken up by
Stev. Salter. The moment the men started Kelly drew
slightly ahead, and off Finche's was leading by about
half a length, and on passing Craven Cottage he
had increased his advantage to a couple of lengths. Matters
went on in this style until Hammersmith-bridge was
reached, on passing which Kelly still maintained his posi-
tion, but on nearing Chiswick Eyot, Chambers, by great
muscular exertion, seemed to gain on his opponent a trifle,
but it was merely a momentary advantage, and shortly after
Kelly pulled out and increased his advantage to nearly
three lengths. On passing Barnes-bridge Kelly led by
about three lengths, which he maintained to the end, and
went in the winner by that distance.
The victor was hailed with the loudest cheering by the
immense crowd of persons assembled at Mortlake to wit-
ness the termination of the struggle.

The race was one of the finest that has been seen on the
river for years.

EGYPT.

ALEXANDRIA, July 29.

Alexandria is now almost entirely free from
cholera, and the shops, whose proprietors fled from
the city at the outbreak of the epidemic, are being
reopened.
The deaths in the city on the 27th inst. were 37,
of which only four were from cholera, and OA the
28th 31, of which two were from cholera.
Thegreat caravan of pilgrims, bearing the carpet
from Mecca, has made its entry into Egyptian terri-
tory at Accaba, where it underwent a primary and
rigorous sanitary visit.
It next stopped at Nehil, half way on the road
between Accaba and Suez, arriving at the latter
place on the 23d inst. A second medical visit by
the Suez physicians showed that the sanitary con-
dition of the caravan was satisfactory.
On the 26th instant it arrived at the station of
Birket-el-flag, where it underwent a third and
minute inveAigation• by a medical commission ap-
pointed for that purpose by the sanitary administra-
tion. His visit was likewise attended with the most
satisfactory results.
The solemn entry of the carpet into Cairo took
place on the 27th inst. From the time of its depar-
ture to its entry into Egypt the caravan has always
been accompanied by a physician, an ambulance,
and nurses.

Thus followed, step by step, by the delegates of
the sanitary administration. This great caravan
has not on its return inspired the public with any

serious uneasiness.

The caravan consisted of about 5,000 persons and
6,000 camas_
Letters from Tangiers, of the 9th July, announce
that the consular body had ordered a quarantine of
seven days for all arrivals from Alexandria. In case
of death or sickness during the voyage the vessel
must immediately leave the port.
The Egyple says :—" It is stated that on the 29th
inst. the Government sold, at 120 piastres per ardeb,
a large quantity of pure wheat. The trade price of
an ardeb of wheat of the same quality has varied for
some time from 400 to 500 and 500 to 600 piastres.
Such a fact as this needs no comment."

The Cholera in Italy,

(REUTER'S EXPRESS.)
GENOA, Aug. 4.

The Movi»zento says :—" Letters from Ancona
represent a gloomy state of things in this city. On
the Ist and 2d inst. the emigration of resident
families, either to the country or the neighbouring
provinces, commenced upon a vast scale. The panic
was such that some of the frontier provinces were
obliged to form sanitary cordons, in order to repel
those who were endeavouring to enter the province."
TURIN, Aug. 5.
The military camps of Gluardo and San Maurizio
have been broken up, the state of the public health
being such as no longer to allow of so many men
being assembled in one spot.
The Diritto says on this subject :---g4 We are not
aware why the camp of Somma is not also broken
up. The malady might there develop itself and
would then be beyond remedy. It is to be feared
that the soldiers after all their hardships may still
have to undergo perilous and long marches before
arriving at their destination. Some of them have
to go even as far as Sicily."
According to the Italie, however, the camp at
Somma continues in an excellent condition. "It
