UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE.

OXFORD, July 21.
The following subjects are proposed for the Chance'
lor's Prizes for the ensuing year, viz. :
For Latin Verse-flsrae'tm PalmAinam occupantes.

For an English Essay—" The different principles on
which the chief systems of popular representation have
been based in ancient and modern times."

For a Latin Essay—" Morum Philosophi apud Graicos
et Romanos inter se comparati."

Sir Roger Newdigate'a Prize—For the best composi-
tion in English verse, not limited to fifty lines, by any
undergraduate who, on the day above specified, shall
not have exceeded four years from the time of his ma-
triculation " The Mosque rising in.the place of the
Temple of Solomon."

At the colonial wool sales there is still a numerous at-
tendance, with increased spirit in the biddings, and a
decided improvement on the opening prices, the conti-
nental purchasers operating very freely. Up to the
present time 19,000 bales have been disposed of, and the
sales will continue to the 12th of August.
LIVERPOOL, Friday.—The Phi:Bohr, Captain Mollett,
belonging to Walthew's Liverpool line of Australian
packets, sailed for Melbourne this morning with 370
passengers. The celebrated Black Ball shin Marco
Polo, Captain Wild, sails to-morrow morning for Mel-
bourne, with 660 passengers on board.
INCREASE OF BUSINESS AT THE CUSTOMS.—There has
been great pressure during the last fortnight in the land-
ing department of the Customs, in consequence of the
large influx of shipping and extensive importations.
Two additional landing surveyors have, therefore, been
appointed by the Board of Commissioners. The new
sugar duties have also materially increased the labours
of the officers.—Civil Service Gazette.
COURTS OF LAW.—A Parliamentary return states that
the number of actions brought in the Queen's Bench in
1851 was 21,221 ; in 1852, 21,625 ' • and in 1853, 22,994 ;
total for the three years, 65,840. In the Common Pleas,
14,398 actions were brought in 1851 ; 17,879 in 1852 ;
and 16,106 in 1853. In the Exchequer, in 1851, 280
actions were entered for trial in London, and 583 in
Middlesex ; in 1852, 323 in London, and 534 in Middle-
sex ; in 1853, 417 in London, and 662 in Middlesex.
The number of revenue causes, which are only tried in
Middlesex, was 5 in 1851, 14 in 1852, and 4 in 1853.
NEUTRALITY OF BRAZIL.—The Brazilian Government
has declared to the Cabinets of France and England that
no privateer under a belligerent flag shall be fitted out,
or victualled, or admitted with its prizes into the ports
of Biazil, and that Brazilian subjects will be required to
abstain from taking part in fitting out any privateer, or
in any other act opposed to the obligations of a strict
neutrality.
CHOLERA AT ST. PETERSBURG.—On the 9th of July
there were 670 persons suffering with cholera. 103 fresh
cases occurred on that day ; 27 were cured and 29 died.
On the following day there were 89 fresh cases--32 cures
and N deaths, —.Totowa de tit, Petergourg,

THE MEDITERRANEAN.

SOUTHAMPTON, JULY' 21.
The Peninsular and Oriental Seam Navigation
Company's ship Ripon, Captain E: Cooper, arrived
here this afternoon, bringing the heavy portion of
the East India, China, and Mediterranean maili,
and dates from Alexandria July 7, Malta July 11,
and Gibraltar July 16.
The Ripon brings 74 passengers, among whom
are Mra. Gifford, widow of the late Captain Gifford.

&c., and on freight 97 bales of flax, 105 bales o'
three cases of cheese, 12 packages of sill.
handkerchiefs, 136 packages of sundry merchandise,

This steamer brings no news from the Mediter-
ranean. From Gibraltar we have accounts to the
16th inst., by which we learn that the two boy:
and four seamen belonging to the British brig Cuth-
bert Young, who escaped from that vessel prior to
her capture. by the .Riff pirates, and for whos€
safety but faint hopes were entertained, had been
picked up by the British cutter Vampire, bound to
Oran, and taken thence to Gibraltar in the French
war steamer Tartare. The British steamer. Persian,
with 110 miles of submarine cable on board; arrived
at Gibraltar on the 14th instant, in eight days
from Plymouth, and proceeded at, once to Genoa.
Her Majesty's steamer Antelope, 10 days from
Sierra Leone to Teneriffe, and 7 days thence,
arrived at Gibraltar on the 13th instant.
At Gibraltar eichange was quoted as follows :

THE BLACK SEA..

" VARNA, July 9.—The Caradoc, steam-despatch
vessel, Lieut.-Commander Derriman, leaves this
evening with Lord Raglan's despatches. I have
little news to tell you further than was contained
in my last. Reports have reached us of the Aus-
trians marching on Widdin, and a colonel being
sent to form a part of Lord Raglan's staff. Two
transports arrived yesterday with cavalry from
England, and the English have now 22,000 effective
fighting men. A party of seamen and sappers from
the fleet have gone to the Danube to construct
boats, rafts, and bridges, for the passage of the
troops. The Russians are falling back and destroy-
ing everything as theyToi."__

-Another letter, dated-I3aftehick, July 9, says
The fleets are still at anchor, and while the armies
are this side of the Danube there-is little chance of
either fleet going to sea. There is a flying squad-
ron off Sebastopol, and detached steamers off the
mouth of the Danube to prevent supplies and com-'
munication. The steamer Fury had left the fleet
yesterday, with Russian prisoners to. exchange.
She will bring back those of the Tiger, when there
will be anourt-martial on the surviving officers arrd
men. The weather excessively hot. - A seaman of
the Rodney, was shot by a midshipman of that ship,
and died this morning. The• boy was trying a re-
volver, and the pistol went off by accident."
The Lloyd of Vienna has the following from
Odessa, dated 7th :—" Tine allied fleet, accom-
panied by a great number of transports, was pro-
f:eeding probably to Anapa and Rowaro-Tyrse:;,
the two last points preserved by the Russians
on the Caucasian coast. It is said that 12,000
men -are to be found there. The fortifications
of thiS place are provided with a considerable
number of pieces of 36, with mortars recently
brought from the interior of Russia. It is cal-
culated that 25,000 men are here and in the
neighbourhood."

MOVEMENTS OF THE RUSSIAN ARMY.
A letter frOm Lemberg, 13th, says :—" Count
Schlick, the Commauder.in-Chief of the corps
darmee of Gallicia, arrived here yesterday, and to-
day the Archduke Charles Louis giyes a grand
dinner on the occasion. The last military mea-
sures of Russia .prove that she expects a war with
Austria. Troops are hastily marching from the
interior of Poland on Podolia and Volhynia, par:-
ticularly cavalry, as the employineut of that force
in the plains of Podolia is much relied on. The
Cossacks have been called from all parts of the
country, but they are for the most part irregulars.
The, concentration of troops in Podolia, on the lino
of the Sereth, and near the defiles of Transylvania
are much more considerable than on our northern
frontier towards Volhynia. It is also said that
.numerous bodies of troops are being assembled
near Cracow. The Russians are • seeking to cover
the approaches to the Crimea in Bossarabia. The
coasts of the Baltic, on the contrary, are nearly
cleared of troops. It is stated that the hereditary
Grand' Duke will positively have the Command-
in-Chief of the army of the south, and have with
him Prince Gortschakoff and Gen. Tchernisqhoff."
London, England, 1854-07-22

POLES IN THE WAR.

The Earl of HARRINGTON inquired whether the
report was true that the Earl of Westmoreland had
stated to the Cabinet of Vienna that the Polish subjects
of the Czar would not be allowed to follow the standard
of the allies ? He could scarcely believe this possible,
because the cause of the allies mainly depended upon
the co-operation of Poland. 'Without restoring the in-
dependence of the thirteen millions of people in that
country a permanent peace could never be obtained
in Europe. '

The Earl of ABERDEEN, in the absence of the
Earl of Clarendon, said he thought he might undertake
to say that no instructions had been sent to Lord West-
moreland to prevent Polish subjects of the Czar giving
their services to the allies. As to our troops, it was a
question for the commander-in-chief to decide whether
deserters from another power should be employed in our
'behalf.

MESSAGE FROM THE QUEEN.
The Earl of ABERDEEN brought up the following
message froth her Majesty, which was read by the Lord
Chancellor.

SERVIA AND MONTENEGRO.

Austria has received very satisfactory assur-
ances, says a letter from Vienna of the 17th, from
the Government of Servia. Prince Danilo, ,of
Montenegro, that worthy ally of the Czar, has
been attacked by delirium tremens, in consequence
of his indulgence in ardent liquors. It appears
that on the 22d of May, being the anniversary of
his birthday, he gave a grand dinner, at which he
drank to such an excess that his mind became
affected. The persons about him have endeavoured
to keep this event secret from the people, who,
preferring to remain neutral in the present war,
care very little what happens to the prince."

REJECTION OF THE LAST RUSSIAN
PROPOSITIONS.

The Cologne Gazette contains a letter from
Vienna of the 17th, which says that Lord West-
moreland has been authorised by his Government
to refuse, purely and simply, to take into considera-
tion the last Russian propositions.
Voss's Gazette, of Berlin, has the following from
Vienna, 16th :—" It is thought that the conference
which Prince Gor tschakoff had yesterday with
Count Buol was the last before his departure, for
the Russian Plenipotentiary must be convinced
that the Russian propositions have not had the
success which was expected at St. Petersburg. The
report that it is intended to make the Russian re-
ply the basis of ulterior negotiations, by commu-
nicating it to the Conference of Vienna, appears
to be confirmed ; but it is also certain that the
Ambassadors of the Western Powers have declared
in the name of their Governments that the Russian
reply is not sufficient to form a motive for an
armistice.

MESSAGE FROM THE QUEEN.

" Victoria Regina.—Her Majesty, deeming it expedi
ent to provide for any additional expenses which may
arise in consequence of- the war in which her Majesty
is engaged against the Emperor of Russia, relies on the
affections of the House of Lords for their concurrence in
such measures as may be necessary for making provision
accordingly."
On the motion of the Earl of ABERDEEN it was
ordered that her Majesty's Message should be taken
into consideration on Monday next.
CONVOCATION.

The Bishop of LONDON moved for copies of reports
from committees of convocation of the province of Can-
terbury, presented to the Convocation. The right rev.
prelate took occasion to express an earnest hope that the
bishops and clergy of the Church of England might be
allowed again the privilege which was enjoyed by every
other Christian Church, of meeting together for synodi-
cal action.—Agreed to.

MR. CTIARLgS SMIPB, OF ENFIELD

We, the undersigned, do hereby declare, that
knowing Mr. Charles Smith to have carried on the
business of wine merchant for 25 years at Enfield,
(where he has been greatly respected,) and being
acquainted with his affairs, and having at his
desire considered the statements recently published
in several newspapers that he was bankrupt,
tending so seriously to injure him in his business
and character, and having also considered that
such statements, although injurious, were made
inadvertently, and without any intention to
injure, and have been fully and publicly
denied and explained by the newspapers,
which inserted them, are of opinion that the legal
proceedings instituted by Mr. Smith on account of
those statements, may be properly given up, and
that this our advice should, for his warranty in so
doing, be published in the same newspapers.

DEATH OF LoRD LANGFORD.—Accounts have reached
town of the death of this nobleman, which took place on
Wednesday, after a very short illness, at Castletown, in
the county of Kildare, the seat of his brother-in-law, Mr.
T. Conolly, M.P. for Donegal. The deceased, who was
in the prime of life, having been born in the year 1824,
was the third Baron Langford, and was but a few years
since married to Miss Conolly, who was unfortunately
drowned while bathing in the month of October last.
Four children survive, the eldest and heir to the estates
being but six years old.
W. S. WOODIN'S CARPET BAG.—This highly popular
entertainment, which for nearly five hundred and fifty
consecutive evenings has contributed so greatly to the
amusement of the public, will close at the Regent Gal-
lery on Saturday, August sth, so that all who desire to
see the eminent myriographish in his present series of
personations should immediately avail themselves of this
final opportunity. As Mr. Woodin sings twelve songs
every night, and, without reckoning minor changes, as-
sumes twenty-four distinct characters nightly, it will be
seen that during the time above named, he bad sung

SPAIN.

PROGRESS OF THE INSURRECTION.
Advices from Madrid of the 19th state that bar-
ileades were erected in every part of the city.
Fighting was going ou in every quarter.
The palace of Queen Christina and her house at
Salamanca had been pillaged.
Espartero had taken the chief command at Sara-
gossa.

PERPIGNAN, July 20.—Barcelona was tranquil on
the 19th, but by no means certain of remaininc, so.
Suspicious bands had left the town, to set fire to
and pillage the manufactories.
It is thought that Espartero will be appointed,
President of the Junta, and assume the direction
of the movement. _ _

The garrison and inhabitants of Puycerda have
declared themselves in favour of the movement.

Another despatch cf the ISth, from Madrid,
says, a Ministerial combination, of which M. Is-
turitz and General Cordova were to form part,
having failed, the Queen had named a Cabinet
under the pre•idency of the Duke de Rivas.
A battle had been fought near Granada between
O'Donnell and General Blaser, in which the latter
and Count Vista Hermosa had been wounded and
taken prisoners.
The Moniteur of this morning (Saturday) con-
firms the fact of the formation of a Cabinet under
the Duke de Rivas, as well as of a battle between
the forces under O'Donnell and the Queen's troops
under General Blaser.

PRRPIGNAN, July 19.—A
provi3ional junta was
formed a Barcelona on the 18th, composed of the
Captain-General and other notable personages, and
which has taken for device a Long live the Queen !
Long live the Constitution, order, and morality !"
Order is being re-established, and the workmen
were returning to their labour. It is said that the
kingdom of Valencia has declared itself.

The Patric says :—" It is positively stated that,
according to the last news from Madrid, a decided
improvement had taken place in the situation of
affairs in consequence of the adhesion of Marshal
Narvaez, who, it is said, has offered his services to
the Queen. It appears that a part of the generals
finding themselves at present borne down by ultras,
are disposed to join Marshal Narvaez."

THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, JULY 25, 1854.

Al ()NE`( NIA RKET

AND
COX MERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

CITY, TWO o'CLOCK.

The sales of cotton at Liverpool yesterday
were estimated at 7,000 bales, including 1,500
American taken for export and on speculation.
The market closed firmly at previous rates. The
sales comprised 5,500 American, 150 Pernam and
Maranham at 61d. to 7d., 50 Bahia at 61d., 300
Egyptian, at 61d. to 9d., 800 Surat, at 2/c1 to 4d.,
and 50 Sea Island at ls. to Is. Sid. per lb. Rail-
way Shares were quiet.
Upon the produce markets Messrs. 11. W.
Jewesbury and Co. remark as follows :

" The arrivals of colonial produce during the past
month have been very extensive, which, combined with
the decreased demand for export, has caused prices to
rule moderately ; there is an entire absence of any spe-
culative feeling, but the home demand continues
favourable, and is increasing. Russian, and also com-
peting articles of colonial produce, have commanded
less attention since our last, and prices are easier ;
it may, however, be presumed that the close blockade
of the Russian ports now established and the diminishing
probability of an early termination of the war, will be-
fore long cause an advance upon the present rates for
articles, the consumption of which is affected by a con-
tinuation of hostilities. Some descriptions of dyes have
been in rather improved demand. Indigo and cochineal
have both lately sold better, but lac dye and safflower
are still neglected, and prices continue to rule very low,
particularly for the middling and ordinary descriptions.
From the Continental produce markets the late reports
notice that the demand is limited, but that prices for
most of the leading articles are firm. In our own ma-
nufacturing districts there has not been much change to
notice. Cotton yarn has been in rather larger demand,
both for the home trade and export ; prices are tolerably
steady. In the woollen districts there has been an im-
proved tone in the markets, and a full average business
has been done at firm rates."
' •

Advices from St. Petersburg, of the 17th inst.,
state that since the allied fleets left °rousts& some
of the Russian ships had ventured out to recon-
noitre, and that the Emperor himself had visited
the place to learn what had been the proceedings
of the enemy while they were off his coast. The
blockade of the White Sea is stated to have been
rigid, but the internal navigation of Russia has not
suffered by our stoppage of the trails-marine com-
merce. The arrivals of vessels at St. Petersburg
this season, to July 3, were 6,059. _ _

Iu the departments of France where the harvest
has been gathered it has proved large and of
excellent quality.
