LONDON, FRIDAY, JULY 5, 1867.

At last the full confirmation has been received of
the alarming rumours respecting the fate of AIAXI-
MILIAN in Mexico. The Atlantic (fable brings us
the official intelligence from New York, July 3d ;
and in the house of Commons last evening the
Chancellor of the Exchequer announced that in
consequence of the receipt of official infor-
mation of the execution of the EMPEROR,
her MAJESTY would be unable to attend the
review in Hyde Park this day, and that it
would accordingly be postponed for a short time.
The news has produced a deep and painful impres-
sion in -11 directions. The feeling of the house
has been plainly manifested by the repeated
inquiries addressed to the Ministers, and the post-
ponement of the festivities of the day, though
occasioning some disappointment, will only express
the popular sentiment. England, indeed, does not
feel directly implicated in the troubles which have
had so sad an ending as France and America both
in some degree must do, but she has watched the
career of the unfortunate Prince with deep interest,
and since his cause has become hopeless his courage
and resolution have evoked her warmest sympathies.
The sad affliction which had already befallen his
young Empress had awakened a general feeling of
regret, more especially among those who remember
her when, as the Princess CnAnLorrE; in her fair
and happy girlhood, she was a frequent visitor at
our own Court. Everywhere there will be an una-
nimous feeling of Borrow and of indignation ; sorrow

present embarrassments, he is satisfied that an
amalgamation with the South Eastern Company is
the first step to place both properties on a sound
footing. He is further satisfied that the agreement
is perfectly fair on both sides and mutually advan-
tageous; and, as it is of great importance with re-
ference to the application to Parliament that it
should be adopted by large majorities of the share-
holders, he earnestly requests them to attend the
meeting to be held on Friday, the 12th inst., at the
Bridge-house Hotel, and, if they are unable to
attend, to send their proxies in favour of himself or

We are not surprised that Mr. DISRAELI ehould
have endeavoured to make some change so as to
expedite the progress of the Reform Bill through the
House of Commons, and although his suggestion
was not agreed to as to taking the revision of the
schedules at once and leaving the consideration of
the amendments still in the notice-book until a
later period, this might not have been very de-
sirable in all respects, but it is fortunate
that the proposition was made, because
it evidently produced some satisfactory re-
sults, and brought hon. members to their senses
concerning the character of their amendments.
Mr. BRIGHT, who evidently desires that the ques-
tion of Reform should be settled as soon as possible,
said that he agreed with the Chancellor of the
Exchequer as to the advisability of adopting some
scheme of this sort that he suggested. Hon.
members might, he observed, go on for weeks in
this desultory fashion, and put in clause after
clause, so that much time would be lost. There
was a good deal of truth in what Mr. DISRAELI said
as to the time required by the other House to dis-
cuss the merits of the bill, and no one can deny
the time is running short ; besides, the sense en-
tertained of the period of the Session arrived at will
prevent some from giving that due consideration
which the question demands and deserves. There
seems, however, good reason to hope that the
plan of Mr. DISRAELI Will not fail in producing
its effect, although it may not be carried out in its
original style. It is true that a great many dissen-
tients appeared, but their words were more formid-
able than their acts. Mr. LOWE was perhaps the
most formidable, and he declared that he would not
relinquish his
he thought, proposal for cumulative voting, which,
was the last chance of mitigating the
evils of the measure.

At a subsequent period of the evening the right
hon. gentleman brought on his proposal for the
cumulative vote, but the matter was not settled, as
progress was reported. It was not very well received
by the committee, for great confusion prevailed
after Mr. LowE's speech was concluded. The right
hon. gentleman spoke very fairly on the subject, and
urged the committee not to adopt the proposal, but
to give it a fair and candid consideration. Mr.
LIDDELL proposed that progress should be reported,
in order that due time might be given to the matter,
and that it might be properly discussed. In so doing he
made a little diversion by declaring that the hon.
member for Birmingham exhibited extraordinary
Toryism in some respects, and had given an in-
stance of it in the question now before the House.
Although the proposal of the hon. member was
rejected, the llouse soon after agreed to it, and
the Chancellor of the Exchequer wisely comiug to
the conclusion that it would be inexpedient to pro-
ceed when the tone of feeling exhibited was so
adverse to careful. consideration. It will be satin.

STATE OF TRADE.

BRADFORD, July 4.—There is less inquiry for
wool to-day. The demand falls decidedly short of
what it was last Thursday, and even during the
early part of the present week. There is a scanty
demand, chiefly for light-haired sorts. Operations
are exceedingly partial, and as prices in the country
are rather easier, consumers act with great caution.
The buyers in the country are fewer than they
were. Many spinners who usually supply themselves
with stocks from the growers have already done
so, at rates higher than those current in this
market, and many staplers consequently find it so
difficult to deal with growers that they deem it
best to refrain from operations, and remain at
home. Though in worsted yarns there are still some
unexpired c9ntracts in the hands of some spin-
ners, new orders aze few and small. There is more
inquiry for genapps and some lustre spinnings.
The production of goods at home is limited, and
the consumption of yarns decreases. Manufac-
turers operate only very sparingly. Prices are un-
changed. The piece-market is flat. The conti-
nental houses are increasingly cautious in placing
orders. Prices do not improve.

BOROUGH HOP.

Tho accounts from the plantations are again unfavour-
able. The condition of the plant is somewhat precarious.
The trade consequently is firmer, and holders are demand-
ing more money. Tho transactions, however, are confined
to immediate wants, and are by no means extensive.

worn. They are of different sizes, some forming only
a small mantelet, and crossing in front like a fichu ;
whilst others are quite large, enveloping the whole
figure. One was arranged so as to form a hood,
with a bandeau of jet across the forehead and bou-
quet of cherries over the left temple ; another,
worked all over with jet, was raised by a bandeau
of gold and white camellia ; whilst a third, still more
Andalusian, was simply raised by a rose at the side,
and fastened over the chest with another.
A " Fo.nr.hon" of white straw was trimmed with
a scarf of green tulle at the back, draped across the
chignon, and forming long barbes over the narrow
strings of green ribbon ; the front trimmed with a
delicate wreath of jessamine reaching on to the

strings.

Round bonnet of black crinoline, trimmed with a
jet fringe ; at the side a bouquet of roses with green
leaves, and others of jet. Long guides of black

velvet.

The chapeau mouche of white tulle, worked with
crystal and edged with white satin ; flies of diffe-
rent colours placed on the front, and on the bow of
white satin ribbon placed at the side. Brides of
tulle edged with satin.
The " Marie Louise" of black straw ; on the
summit a flat baw of blue satin, with coquilles of
the same satin in front, with guides of the same.
Brides of black lace, and small bouquets of ane-
mones with gold centres placed across the front.
The " Parisien" is also much worn, made of crape
--white, blue, pink, maize, or lilac. It is of the form
fanchon ; the crape is bouillonne with tulle of the
same colour, and the front is trimmed with small
flowers, such as lilies of the'valley, daisies, myosotis,
wild roses, &c., placed' on the crape and covered
with tulle. The part of the bonnet resting on the
chignon- is trimmed with a bow of narrow ribbon
the same colour as the crape, and a voilette of tulle
illusion.

A very pretty fringe, formed of small balls or
beads of silk the same colour as the trimming, is
much used instead of those of crystal or jet, and
makes a pleasing change.

what quantity of gunpowder was at present stored in Leith

pleted, the gunpowder would at once be removed frora

THE REFORM BILL.

Mr. F. GOLDSMID asked the Chancellor of the Ex-
chequer whether it would not be the effect of the third
clause of the Bill for Amending the Representation of the
People to enable any number of joint occupiers who may
be rated and pay the rates in respect of any one house in a
borough to be registered as electors ; and whether this
operation of the clause was in accordance with the inten-
tion of the Government ?

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said it was
not intended by the bill to allow any number of joint oc-
cupiers to be registered as electors. That, he apprehended,
was not the effect of the clause as it stood in the bill.
There was no habitation franchise, but a residential one,
the rates being paid by the master of the house. If the
hon. member thought otherwise it was quite competent for
him to raise the question at the proper time.
