CITY TERMINUS HOTEL.

The third ordinary meeting of this company was
held yesterday at the Charing-cross Hotel ; the

Hon. J. Byng in the chair.
The report stated that the capital expenditure
during the year had been £91,421, making the total
outlay to the end of March last £192,290. The
lease of the site of the hotel for 999 years from the
South-Eastern Railway Company had been com-
pleted. The bar at the western side of Cannon-
street station was opened on the 15th September last,
and was now in full operation, and the receipts
since that time h•id fully justified the expectation of
the directors. It was hoped that the hotel itself
would be opened in the course of a few weeks.
The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the
report, said he felt confident that as soon as the
establishment was got into working order the busi-
ness would be such as would repay the shareholders
for their investment.

After a short discussion the report was unani-
mously adopted. The retiring directors, Mr. Byng
and Mr. Eborall, were re-elected, and also Messrs.
Edwards and Parker, the retiring auditors. The
meeting was then made special, and the directors
were authorised to borrow a further sum of £40,000,
and a vote of thanks to the chairman concluded the
proceedings.

• MONMOUTHSHIRE-TUESDAY.

Home-grown wheat has not been very liberal in sti'
ply during the last week, and business generally is
dull. Foreign wheat offered moderately, at about previous
rates, with a sluggish businebs. Barley rather easier, to
previous quotations. Oats barely maintained the late ad"
vance. Malt was in moderate request. Beans showed no
change.
The following are the average quotations:—Wheat, red,
7s 6d to 8s Od per bushel ; white, 7s 9d to 8s 6d ; infcrior,'
Gs Ud to 6s 6d ; malting barley, 44s to 48s per qr ; grind-
ing ditto, 34s to 36s Od; beans, 43s to 455; white oats, 269
to 27s Od ; black ditto, 24s 6d to 25s 6d. still

SALISBURY.—T UESDAY.
At this market to-day the supply of wheat was rather
on the increase, with a short attendance, partly on account
of the Wilts Yeomanry being up for training and Bath
races. Tho trade was inactive, and last week's figures
were about realised. Barley met with a limited demand,
and no advance in price obtained. Oats, beans, and 11
ruled dull, but were unaltered in value. Malt quiet, an
fully' as dear.
The following are the quotations :—Wheat realised fro";
62s to 72s ; barley, 32s to 455; oats, 24s to 30s ; beans, 444
to 58s; and peas, 40s to 48s per qr. Tares, from 5.4 6d to •
7 Gd per bushel; Best bread, 15d ; household ditto, I*.
per 81b loaf. Flour, 46s to 50s per sack.

WESION'S MUSIC HALL•

The proprietors of this favourite place of public
entertainment have been compelled by law to with-
draw their excellent " operatic selections" through
the " friendly" action of some of the officials of a
rival establishment. If anything could show the
necessity for an alteration in the law the proceed-
ings taken against Messrs. Holland and Sweasy
afford a very strong illustration. They gave an
excellent selection of music from a popular opera,
and because the vocalists appeared in theatrical
costume the law prohibited the performance.
At another establishment grand ballets are per-
formed, with all the accessories of the
stage, together with the additional attraction
of troupes of young women, habitod in such a
manner that modesty retires blushing from the
place ; yet this style of entertainment is allowed by
law to be carried on without the slightest interfer-
ence, and the reason for this strange anomaly is,
forsooth, that the intellectual performance is called
a stage play, but the sensual one is, by a fiction
of law, decided not to be so. The sooner such
a state of things is altered the better.
Messrs. Holland and Sweasy had intended that
their next operatic selection should have been from
Fra Diavolo," bat the proceedings we have alluded
to render that impossible, and for the present,
therefore, they have been compelled to seek for
other attractions. They have called wit and hu-
mour to their aid, and now present their patrons
with au entertainment which embraces all the
comic vocal talent in the metropolis. The " Comic

DEPARTURE OF THE BELGIANS.

The following farewell address of the Belgian
Gardes Civiques and Volunteers on their departure
from England was presented to the President of
the Belgian Reception Committee :--
~ My Lord,—.On behalf of those whom I have
had the honour to command during their visit to
England, I beg permission through you to address
a few words to those who have so nobly entertained
us. Everywhere and by every one we have been
greeted with the most touching marks of friendship,
goodwill, and cordiality.

We were prepared for a welcome worthy of
England, but we were far from expecting to meet
with such spontaneous and unanimous cordiality.
We had heard of the hospitality of England, but we
confess that the result has surpassed our most san-
guine anticipations. Not only will the remembrance
of this visit ever remain among our dearest recol-
lections, but I assure you that Belgium will hence-
forth regard it as another earnest pledge of friend-
ship between the two peoples. In the name of these
under my command, and on behalf of all the Civic
Guards and Volunteers of Belgium, I tender my
most heartfelt thanks to England, to those who so
worthily represent her, to your admirable citizen
army—in a word, to all who have received us with
such friendly welcome.

THE BEST REMEDY FOR INDIGE3TION,

- -
NORTON'S CAMOMILE PILLS Are confi-
dently recommended as a simple but certain Remedy
for Indigestion, whizh I the cause of nearly all the diseases
to which we arc subject, being a medicine so uniformly grate-
tut and beneficial, that it is with justice called the "Natural
Strengthener of the Human Stomach." "Norton's Pills "
act as a powerful tonic and gentle aperient; are mild in their
operation, safe under any circumstances, and thousands of
persons can now bear testimony to the benefits to be derived
from their use, as they have been a never-failing Family
Friend for upwards of 20 years.
Sold in bottles at is. lid., 20.9 d., and h a, each, in every

persuaded to purchase any of the various imitations which
have sprung up in consequence of the success of NORTON'S
CAHOJIIILE PILLS.

AGRICULTURAL HALL.

The experiment of giving promenade concerts at
the Agricultural Hall has succeeded beyond mea-
sure, as the series announced for the next six weeks
bids fair to be the most successful entertainment
ever given in this immense building. Music, how-
ever, must not be looked upon as the only attrac-
tion, as the splendid decorations by the Messrs.
Defries on the occasion of the Belgian ball remain
intact, and elicit the admiration of the thou-
sands who have since the commencement of
the concerts thronged the hall. The great
prismatic fountains also lend an additional
charm to the hall, and, combined with Mdlle.
Liebhart's singing and Mr. Levy's wonderful cornet
playing, make up one of the most remarkable
shilling's worth of entertainments ever submitted to
the public. Last night, notwithstanding the audi-
ence exceeded 10,000, not the slightest inconve-
nience was experienced, as hundreds availed them-
selves of the floral promenades, which, illuminated,
revive again the glories of " Ranelagh." A grand
morning performance is announced for Saturday
next, on which occasion an immense audience is
fully anticipated and provided for.

Lord. GREY'S amendment has met with the fate
that was anticipated, and was rejected, the second
reading having taken place without a division. This
intelligence will be hailed throughout the country
generally, and from this time no doubt need rest
on the minds of those who most ardently desire to
see Reform settled. In some respects this ill-ad-
vised attempt has not been without good conse-
quences, for a spirit and energy have been infused
into the debates that do not often appear in

FRANCE.

PARIS, July 24.
Yesterday the Emperor received Prince Albert
of Prussia And the Prince of Saxe Coburg Gotha.
The Government have received a telegram from
M. Dano, the French minister in Mexico, dated the
9th inst., in which he said that he did not think he
would leave Mexico for another week. The tele-
gram makes no mention of the occurrences in
Mexico since the occupation of that city and Vera
Cruz.

The Policy, a journal of Prague, which was re-
cently suspended after a condemnation for calum-
niating Baron de Beust, has just obtained from the
Emperor, at the instance of the Minister, a relief
from that rigorous measure.
The bulletin of the paris Observatory of Saturday
morning gives the following as the atmospheric situa-
tion :—" The centre of barometrical depression, which
this morning was to the west of the Norwegian coast,
has shifted towards the east, and is now in the Baltic.
The glass has fallen 6mm. at St. Petersburg and
Bat Stockholm. A rise of some importance-snim.
—is observed this morning in England and France;
but the pressure diminishes at Valentia, and the wind
has veered to the south-west at Penzance and in Ire-
land. In France yesterday the sky was much clouded
and overcast, and the wind westerly ; on the smith
coast it is north-cast, pretty strong, with a clear
sky. The glass is sinking in Italy." In Paris yes-
terday the weather was delightful, a pleasant breeze
tempering the heat of the sun. At three in the
afternoon the thermometer marked 23 5-10 Centi-
grade (74 3-5 Fahrenheit).
