A letter from the Hague of the 30th ult., in the
Emancipation, says :—" The Archduke of Austria,
cousin of the Emperor, who arrived here yesterday
evening, received this morning a visit from Prince
Frederick. A grand dinner was given in his honour this
dayio the palace of Prince Frederick."

MAD DOGS.—Yesterday an official notice from the
Metropolitan Police Commissioners was posted up in
various parts of the metropolis, cautioning the owners
of dogs from allowing them to be at large alter receiving
due notice that they are in a rabid state. The
penalty is exceedingly heavy.
MRS. SEACOLL—Mrs. Seacole, the ce!ebrated pro-
prietress of the provision store in the Crimea, intends
setting up a similar establishment at Aldershot. Her
fame in this particular department of business is so well
known among all military men that success in her new
speculation is almost certain.
WEST SOMERSET RAILWAY.—Sir P. P. F.Palmer Ack-
land, Bart., has consented to preside at a public meeting,
which is to be held at Williton, near Taunton, on Wed-
nesday next, for the purpose of promoting a railway to
connect Williton and the West Somerset mineral dis-
trict with the Bristol and Exeter Railway.
The employes of the Eastern Counties Railway Com-
pany have presented Mr. A. G. Church, the late coach-
ing superintendent, with a testimonial of their esteem
and respect in the shape of an elegant epergne, together
with a gold watch. Mr. Church had been connected
with the railway upwards of 16 years.
The officers who have lately held commands in the
Crimea will immediately he placed in similar positions on
the Staff at home. Five of them have been already
appointed to the command of brigades at Aldershot, and
several district staff appointments will shortly be vacated
to which other Crimean officers will, in all probability, be
named.

CRYSTAL PALACE.—CONCERT DAY, FRIDAY, July
4.—Admissions
on payment, 1,833; ditto by season
tickets, 3,501 ; total visitors, 5,334.
CRYSTAL PALACE CONCERTS.—Another magnificent
day saw another crowded and brilliant audience assem-
bled in the Palace at Sydenham, yesterday afternoon,
to listen to another capital concert—the eighth, and one
of the very best of the series. It is evident that the
nearer these performances draw towards an end the
more anxious are the public to be present.
PARLIAMENTARY COMMITTEE, HOUSE OF LORDS.—
DULWICH COLLEGE.—Yesterday the committee met again
to consider the bill for changing the management of
Dulwich College and its other institutions, The remain-
ing clauses were gone through, and the bill was ordered
to be reported to the house. It is almost identical with
the scheme proposed by her Majesty's commissioners in
heir report.
The Gazette de Cologne contains the following from
Bucharest, dated June 24 :—" The French consul here
has received orders by telegraph not to sell the stores of
corn at Braila, Kalarasch, and Oltenitza. It is thought
probable that it will be carried to France for distribution
among the sufferers by the inundations."
The Limerick Chronicle says that there is reason to be-
lieve in the correctness of a report which has been circu-
lated to the effect that Mr. James Sadleir, M.P. for
Tipperary, and director of the Tipperary Joint Stock
Bank, has been able to elude any criminal proceedings
which his connection with that notorious swindle might
entail. It is added that he got into a yacht near Kings-
town in the presence of two detectives under whose sur-
veillance he was, and that the policemen waited in vain
for his return, as the yacht was met off Dublin harbour
by an emigrant ship, in which he proceeded t.) America

COMPETITIVE EXAMINATION FOR WRITERSIIIPS IN
CETLON.—An examination has just taken place before
the Civil Service Commissioners for the vacant writer-
ships in Ceylor. The successful candidates were Mr.
H. W. Gillinan, of Trinity College, Dublin, and Mr.
T. Steele of Brompton, in Cumberland. There were
seven competitors.— Civil Service Gazette.
MINES.—The share market has been dull this week,
and prices, particularly in large copper mine shares,
have considerably declined. This has been caused by
the rather sudden fall in the price of copper, announced
last week, and which seems to have created no small
amount of alarm among the holders of shares in many
of the expensively worked copper mines. We think,
however, on consideration, there is scarcely adequate
cause for this alarm, inasmuch as the fall in copper
which has now taken place has been long anticipated, in
the gradual decline in the standard for ores.—Mining
Joarnal of this day.
COMMUNICATION BETWEEN MILFORD AND AMERICA.
—lt is stated that Milford Haven has been selected as the
port of departure for America of a lice of steamers of im-
mense tonnage and great power. Mr. E. Rail, of Boston,

the purpose of running four steamers of 4,000 tons each.
Anoth'r gentleman, Mr. J. Croskey of Southampton, has
also been inspecting the port., for the purpose of ascer-
taining the capabilities for the departure thence of
steamers of immense power and tonnage. The latter
gentleman is the owner of large steamers plying between
Southampton and America • but these are not to be re-
moved, as a perfectly new line is to be created. The
owner of the M:lford estates has given every facility for
I the use of the land. _ _ _

DANGEROUS USE OF STRYCHNINE.—The salmon fishers
in he employment of Mr. William L. Tayler, bank agent
here, have it in contemplation to adopt the following
novel method of destroying the seals, which are exceed-
ingly numerous about the salmon nets at GoHach), and
Buckie, and doing immense damage to the fishings in that
quarter this season. Strychnine, made up in the form of
pills,is to be the agent employed in their destruction, and
a young grilse the medium through which tits "Pa'me.
Ilan" medicine is to be administered. The grilse, imme-
diately after being captured, will be opened, and the pill
being inserted, it will then be neatly sewed up, and at-
tached to the net in such a manner as to have the appear-
ance of being alive in the act of swimming, and thus at-
tract the notice of the seals. It may be well, however,
in the event of any of the grilses so prepared becoming
detached fromashore, tehenets,andcalstottou
8%3
them,warn but to
parties
who may happen
destroy them at once. They will he easily detected, as
the sewing up, after inserting the strychnine, will be
quite visible. The plan is to be put into operation on
and after Wednesday first.—Banffshire Journal.

IMPROVEMENTS OF THE HARBOUR OF BREST.—The
Ocean of Brest contains the following :—" Extensive
works rendered necessary by the extension assumed daily
to our steam navy, are about to be commenced in this
port. On the 7th July the contract for executing the
works of excavation at the point of Salon, a labour the
cost of which is not expected to be under 1,200,000 f.,
whilst it can scarcely be effected under a space of three
years, will be °flexed for public competition. These pre-
liminary labours will only consist in the detttruction of the
rock, which will be reduced to the level of the soil. When
that long and difficult task shall have been completed, it
will be a question of establishing on the extensive space a
magnificent double dock, in which our line of battle ships
may be transformed without difficulty into screw steam•
ers. The advanced position of the point of Sal, a will
permit the construction of two entries and two outlets to
this dock, the length of which will be 200 natres,
readth 50, with a der;th of 11 I:laetrile."
