This match was resumed yesterday at the Oval. There
was a good sprinkling of company upon the occasion ; but it
will be found that, powerful as are the Nottinghamshire
Eleven, those of Surrey were too much for them. At the
conclusion of the match Surrey were promulgated by the
score-papers as the winners by a majority of 75 runs. The
score stood thus:—

GERMAN Y.

The Spener Gazette states, from Berlin 11th—
" M. DELBRUCK, the representative of Prussia i❑
the third committee of the Conferences at Dresden,
has just returned from that city, in order, it is said,
to be present at a Cabinet Council, at which the com-
mercial policy of the country will be discussed."
The Voss Gazette states, under the head of Berlin
the Bth, that the most perfect understanding has been
come to between the Austrian and Prussian Govern-
ments on the subject of Schleswig. It has been re-
solved, it is asserted, that in all the negotiations with
Denmark, Austria and Prussia shall act together.
The Assembly of the States of Hanover was opened
on the Bth.

Thr Weser Gazette, under date of Vienna, sth,
states that the fortifications of Cracow and of Podgo-
reze are being rapidly proceeded with. The principal
points of the works are the heights of Kosciusko and
the mouth of the road from Warsaw.

The Hamburgh papers saythat, a few days ago, at
about eleven o'clock in the day, six privates of the
regiment Hugent forcibly entered the residence of
Mr. MAIR, editor of the public journal Mephistophele.
Two of the men held the door, so that it was im-
possible for his family to come to his assistance, while
the four others fell upon Mr. MAns, and continued
beating him till he remained insensible upon the floor,
upon which they all quitted the house in haste.
Medical assistance was immediately called in, and in-
formation given to the police. It is fully expected
that the Austrian military authorities will render
assistance to effect the discovery of the base perpetra-
tors of this crime.

DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES.
The .Hamburgh Borsenhalle says :—" We hear that
the proposals said to be made by Russia that the forti-
fications of Renaburgh lying on the north side of the
Eider, shall be razed, has just been reiterated on the
part of Denmark."
The Berlin Gazette of Copenhagen publishes the
official list of the notables who are to assemble at
Flensburg, to attempt to settle the affairs of Schles
wig-Holstein. The notables are twenty-one in num-
ber—nine for Schleswig, six for Holstein, six for
Denmark. Count BILLS BRAUN, formerly Danish
Minister at Vienna, has been nominated Royal Com-
missioner to act with the notables. The Danish
Government is to submit to them a plan for the
organization of all the monarchy, and especially of
Schleswig.

Madrid journals of the Bth have arrived. Queen
CHRISTINA was going on favourably.
The Managing Electoral Committee of the Pro-
gresista party: has issued an address to the Liberals
on the eve of the general election. It thus con-
cludes :

" The committee hopes that the Progresista electors
will repair, united, and with alacrity, to vote for those
candidates whom they judge most capable of sustaining
our principles in the congress, with the same
enthusiasm as if they were sure of triumphing.
Neither the illegal exclusions from the election
registrars, nor any other considerations whatever,
should stop a single individual of our creed who enjoys
the precious right of parliamentary voting; nor in-
fluence him to swerve from the path which his conscience
and good faith mark out. The party which fights only
tthoa.citolnnoaqmutheeerwis unworthy of victory. There are glorious
defeats which prepare stainless laurels. He who does
can-
not reap the latter with honour.

LANDLOIW AND TENANT BILL.

Mr. SI;66REI-tm °Ted the second reading of this
Bill, which he said was for the purpose of facilitating
the arrangements between the outgotng and iniiivicaing
tenant relative to existing crops, and buildings erected
at the teilaut's own expense.
Atter a bri.f discussion respecting some of the details
of the Bill, the m...tion was agreed to.
RELICTIOUS HOUSES BILL.

Lord ARUNDEL and SURREY presented a great
number or pettuumi from different parts of the kingdom
against the Religious Houses Bill.
Mr. ROCHE also presented several petitions to the
same efictit from places in Ireland.
Mr. J. O'BRIEN presented petitions from the parish
of Newmarket on Fernes, county of Clare, also from
the parishes of Relsaly and liillenkennely,
the
Religious
ecloninoutys,
agaiest the Ecclesiastical Titles Bill, and h
Houses. Bill.
Mr. CARDWELL presented a similar petition from a
place in Lancashire.
Sir J. GRAHAM also presented a similar petition
from Louth, designating the Bill both as unworthy of
the houuur and liberty and chivalry of the eouatry; he
also presented two other petitions from Ireland to the
same effect.
Mr. P. HOW A.RD presented several potions. also
to the same effect, one stating that if the Bill were
passed, it would amount virtually to the banishment of
the occupants of these religious houses, because they
would be compelled to remove to countries where such
buu,es were allowed to be established and maintained.
Sir. LACY moved the second reading of the Bill, the
object of which. was to require the registration of ladies
residing iu monasteries or other religious houses, and to
enable the magistrates of quarttr sessions to visit such
establishments without notice, and to remove any lady
who should express a desire to leave them. He
was informed that these houses bad greatly in-
creased within the last few years, the number which bad
been added to the list during the last four years being 19.
Several of them contained as many as 500 or even 1,000
inmates, and when they recollected instances of ladies
escaping trom them, and other circumstances which bad

WAKEFIELD, JULY 25.—Since this day week the weather
has been of a varied character, and though not injurious to the
growing crops, they cannot have made much further progress
towards maturity. The arrivals are on a moderate scale. There
is no change to note in the value of wheat, the demand con-
tinuing entirely upun fine fresh qualities, of which there is
but little offering. Oats and shelling are fully as dear. Beans
in retail demand at late prices. Grinding barley Is dearer.

AMERICAN NEWS.

ARRIVAL OF THE HER MANN.
SOUTHAMPTON, SATURDAY MORNING.
The American ocean steamer Hermann has just ar-
rived off Cowes, from New York, on her way to Bremen.
She left New York on the 12th instant, at 4 p.rz. She
has brought 91 passengers, and specie to the value of
100,0001. sterling for England and France.
The Hermann passed the Franklin on the 13th, and
the IN ashington 1,066 miles from the Needles on
the 21st.

From Washington, we learn that the court-martial
on General Talcott found him guilty of the charges.
The finding has been approved by the President, and he
has been dismissed from the service, without any reser-
vation.
Captain Frazier, of the revenue service, now stationed
in California, has been dismissed by the President for
tyrannical conduct and violation of the Act of Congress
abolishing flogging.
Instructions have been given to secure a uniform ap-
praisement of imported goods at all the ports of the
United States.
An invitation has been extended to the President and
Cabinet to accompany Mr. Webster on his journey
north.
According to dates from the city of Mexico to the
24th of June, the Mexican Government had issued a de-
cree prohibiting all labour and scientific examinations of
the Tehuantepec route, and ordering all Americans con-
cerned to leave the republic. Troops had been sent out
to entorce this decree.

The steamer United States, bound for Tehuantepec,
had been refused a clearance at New Orleans by the
Mexican Consul. The Mexican Congress was in sitting,
discussing the national debt. It is said that Arista had
abandoned the liberals on a bribe from the priests.
The cholera was still at Cincinnati. A terrible storm
raged on the Texas coast for several days. The steamer
Maria Burt was totally lost. Many houses in Texas
were blown down, and the young cotton crop is partially
destroyed.

their inmates was in many instances extremely perilous, but
through the prompt

were sacrificed. The distress and excitement amongst the
poor creatures were most painful; they rushed about the
street almost frantic. The official report of

of two parties who were insured, the loss will fall heavily on
the inmates (some 13 or 14 families), they having lost every
