ORDER OF THE DAY.

The volunteers commanded by General Garibaldi in the
south of Italy have well deserved of the country and of us.
Whilst our Government is occupied in organising them
completely in accordance with the laws and regulations of
the state,
I have determined :

1. In regard to the rank of the officers, a special commis-
sion composed of superior officers of the two armies shall
make me propositions in accordance with the brevets, which
they now possess.

2. To the officers, non-commissioned officers, and soldiers
who, by the effect of wounds received during the war, are
unable to follow the military service, will be applied the
laws regulating the pensions in our ancient estates.
3. To those non-commissioned officers and soldiers who
are desirous to return to their homes shall be furnished
their conge, and the means of returning to their country
shall be granted to them, together with three months' pay.
This conge shall not, however, free the soldiers from the
obligations they may have towards the state and the army,
according to the existing laws.
4. The volunteers who may be desirous of remaining
under the national colours must bind themselves to serve in
the army for two years, beginning from the date of the
present order of the day. They will be organised in accor-
dance with the other corps of the army.

VISIT OF TEIB EMPRESS Or TEE FRENCH TO

BCOTL4IT.D.

(From the Seo(man.)
Notwithstanding the privacy under which the
visit of the Empress of the French to this country
has been planned and is being carried out, her Im-
perial Majesty has not been able wholly to avoid
most cordial though most respectful demonstrations
of kind feeling from the people both of England and
Scotland. We yesterday noticed the hearty recep-
tion her Majesty met at York. At Darlington,
Newcastle, Berwick, and other stations along the
line, numbers of people where again collected, who
cordially cheered her Majesty en the arrival and
departure of the train• The Mayor of Newcastle,
whe attended on the platform, had likewise the
honour of paying his respects personally. The
precise hour of her Imperial Majesty's arrival in
Edinburgh being quite unknown beforehand,
several trains from the south were awaited during
the afternoon by a number of ladies and gentlemen
who had obtained access to the platform, and who,
notwithstanding more than one disappointment,
were sure to return in time for the next train. '
Accordingly, when the eight o'clock express came
in with the imperial party, about a couple of hun-
dred well-dressed people had taken up their places
on the platform and outside the station. Her Ma-
jesty, on stepping from the train, was received with
enthusiastic acclamations by the assemblage. In
accordance with previous instructions, the proprie-
tor of Douglas's Hotel had a number of private car-
riages in readiness, to which the Empress and her
attendants immediately made their way—though
not without some difficulty, from the eager though
almost involuntary pressure of the increasing crowd.
The carriages drove off to Douglas's Hotel, fol-
lowed by another hearty cheer. A considerable
crowd had also assembled in front of the hotel,
and there the Empress was again greeted with
a hearty Scottish welcome. These demonstra-
tions, however, were necessarily confined to a
few

hundreds of the inhabitants, for on Saturday
evening, and even on Sunday, her Majesty's pre-
sence was not known generally in the city. On
Sunday morning the Empress with her suite attended
St. Mary's Church, Broughton-street, where High
Mass:was celebrated, and, after an addressby Bishop
Gillis, a To Down for the safe return of the Prince
of Wales was performed. A considerable number
of persons had collected in front of the church when
the imperial party came up, and inside the building
was densely crowded; but the assemblage conducted
themselves with the utmost decorum; and we under.
stand that the Empress on this, as on several other
occasions during her journey and since her arrival
in Edinburgh, expressed to her attendants her
warm appreciation of the cordial and respectful
welcome which she had everywhere met with. The
imperial party walked to and from the chapel, and
the Empress did not seem the least put about by the
journey to the hotel having to be taken through a
smart snow shower. In the afternoon, her Majesty,
with the members of her suite, and attended by a
French guide belonging to the hotel, took a walk
along Princes-street and Waterloo-place, with the
intention of ascending the Calton-hill, to enjoy the
extensive and celebrated panoramic view which it
affords. The disagreeable state of the weather, how-
ever, prevented this intention from being carried
out ; and the Empress desired the guide to conduct
her to Holyrood. The route chosen was down the
precipitous pathway styled Jacob's Ladder to the
north back of the Canongate, and thence to the
front of Holyrood Palace. Her Majesty gazed for
a few moments upon the ancient chapel, and looked
wistfully up at the weather-worn turrets pointed
out by the guide as the apartments of Mary Queen
of Scots ; and then expressed a strong wish to see
something of Arthur's Seat. The royal party ac-
cordingly proceeded eastwards to the point where
the Duke's walk is joined by the Queen's drive at

RISE IN THE RATE OF DISCOUNT.

(Emit tic Deriphire Couri.r.)
The Bank of England raised their rate of discount
on Thursday, November 8, from 4 per cent. to 41.
On Tuesday last the rate was again raised—this
time to 5 per cent. ; and on Thursday to 6 per cent.
This latter measure is said to have been adopted in
consequence of £300,000 in gold having been with-
drawn on account of the Bank of France. On
Wednesday £335,000 was taken out by the French
Bank, and £365,000 more is expected to follow. A.
million sterling will therefore have been with-
drawn in a few days.
The Bank Return up to Wednesday, November
7, showed a diminution of the bullion to the amount
of £230,788, since the previous return. The reserve
of notes in the hands of the Bank to meet demands
of payments, or for discount purposes—is low—
being only £6,429,370.
Let us take the real state of the Bank of Eng-
land as to its powers of Convertibility at the present
time. We have as its
Notes issued
Deduct, held by the Bank itself 6,429,370
