Not much wheat on offer to-day, and there was a fair
inquiry at is to 2s per qr. above last week's rates. Supo-,
rior qualities of barley were a small show, and sold al
higher prices. Oats fully maintained their value. Peas
easier to purchase. Beans dull at rather lower rates.
Old white wheat, 65s to 725; old red, 60s to 68s ; no°
white, 68s to 71s ; new red, 56s to 64s per 36 stone. Bar"
ley for malting, 38s to 455 per qr.; grinding, 30s to 34s pot,
30 stone. Oats, old, 30s to 32s ; new, 25s to 30s per `.43

SUDDEN DEPARTURE OF PRINCE CHRISTIAN FOR
GERMANY.—Yesterday morning a telegraphic mes-
sage was received at Windsor Castle announcing the
serious illness of the mother of H.R.H. Prince Christian,
and preparations were made for the Prince to leave for the
Continent as soon as possible. His Royal Highness left

ceed by the mail train to Dover, with the intention of
crossing to Calais on his way to Germany.
The Earl and Countess of Tankerville have been

days past all hopes have been given up of her recovety.

LAUNCESTON AND SOUTH DEVON.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was held
at Launceston on Friday ; Col. Archer in the chair.
the CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the re-
port, said the amount standing to the credit of re-
venue, if appropriated to dividend, would give £1
2s. 6d. per cent. ; but as the feeling which had for
some time prevailed concerning railway securities
had prevented the issue of more than a small amount
of preference capital, the directors felt compelled to
recommend that the revenue balance be applied to
the payment of the outstanding claims on capital
account. The revenueaccountshowed that the gross
receipts, excluding rebates, had been £3,431, of
which one-half had gone to the South Devon Com-
pany for working the line. The rebates received
were £923. On the other side of the account £2,215
had been paid for interest on debentures and to
bankers, and £l6l for other charges, leaving a ba-
lance of £854 in hand. The capital account showed
a total expenditure .of £234,676.
The report was adopted, and the retiring directors
were re-elected.

MANCHESTER, SHEFFIELD, AND LINCOLNSHIRE.
The total expenses of this company's railways and
canals, including rents, tolls, duty, &c., from Jan.
1 to Feb. 24, 1867, amounted to £80,192, as against
£78,241 for the same period of 1866. The propor-
tion of the South Junction receipts accruing to this
company from Jan. 1 to Feb. 24 amounted to £5,496,
as against £6,005 for the corresponding period of
1866, and the expenses to £3,097, as against £3,529.

CENTRIL CORNWALL.

The half-yearly meeting was held on Friday at
Camelford ; Mr. Gurney presided.
The CHAIRMAN congratulated the shareholders on
the prospects of the undertaking. A basis of ar-
rangement between the Central Cornwall, the Lon-
don and South Western, and the broad gauge com-
panies had been agreed to, and Parliamentary sanc-
tion of the terms was being sought. In the mean-
time the London and South Western Company had
matured arrangements for the working of this com-
pany's lines at 45 per cent. of the gross receipts,
and the payment to this company of a rebate on
certain portions of the traffic. A bill embodying
these terms, and asking power to purchase or lease
the lines of the Central Cornwall Company, also
powers for the thorough working of the whole sys-
tem of the London and South Western Company,
had been introduced. The bills were now before
Parliament, and no doubt they would be passed.
The report was adopted.

for eternal bliss. It is of faith that charity is the
measure of the soul for the vision of God. " God
is charity ; and he that abideth in charity, abideth
in God, and God in him." This is true, even in
this state of grace. Much more abundantly and
intrinsically shall this be verified when God shall
be " All in all." They that have loved most shall
be most blissful, where all shall have his own
capacity, some greater and some less, but all shall
be full. They shall see God most intensely who
have loved Him with the largest charity on earth.
They shall be united to Him most intimately who
have died to themselves, and have lived by the
" life " which "is hidden with Christ in God."
And your charity to these little children is the
fruit of the supernatural life which God Himself
has infused into you, and sustained by His own
presence in your hearts, the earnest of your salva-
tion, the measure of your eternal bliss.

We hereby grant to all the Faithful who shall
devoutly say one Our Father and one Hail, Mary,
in the presence of Our Lord in the Blessed Sacra-
ment, during the Forty Hours of this Lent, with
the intention of promoting a faithful observance of
the Easter duties, an Indulgence of forty days.
"The Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the
charity of God, and the communication of the
Holy Ghost be with you all. Amen."

LAUNCESTON AND SOUTH DEVON.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was held
at Launceston on Friday; Col. Archer in the chair.
The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the re-
port, said the amount standing to the credit of re-
venue, if appropriated to dividend, would give £1
2s. 6d. per cent. ; but as the feeling which had for
some time prevailed concerning railway securities
had prevented the issue of more than a small amount
of preference capital, the directors felt compelled to
recommend that the revenue balance be applied to
the payment of the outstanding claims ou capital
account. The revenueaccountshowed that the gross
receipts, excluding rebates, had been £3,431, of
which one-half had gone to the South Devon Com-
pany for working the line. The rebates received
were .£923. On the other side of the account £2,215
had been paid for interest on debentures and to
bankers, and £l6l for other charges, leaving a ba-
lance of £854 in hand. The capital account showed
a total expenditure of £234;676.
The report was adopted, and the retiring directors
were re-elccted.

MANCHESTER, SHEFFIELD, AND LINCOLNSHIRE.

The total expenses of this company's railways and
canals, including rents, tolls, duty, &c., from Jan.
1 to Feb. 24,.1867, amounted to £80,192, as against
£78,241 for the same period of 1866. The propor-
tion of the South Junction receipts accruing to this
company from Jan. 1 toFeb. 24 amounted to £5,496,
as against £6,005 for the corresponding period of
1866, and the expenses to £3,097, as against £3,529.

THE ABYSSINIAN PRISONERS.
Mr. D. GRIFFITH asked the Secretory of State for
Foreign attire whether the British artisans who had

been or were about to be taken out by Col. Merewether
to Massowah were to be exchanged for the captives now
detained in Abyssinia, or were to be sent into that country
after the latter were released; and, if so, whether it would
not require great attention to prevent the transaction from
simply resulting in the change of one set of prisoners for
another ?

Lord STANLEY said that orders had been given to
Colonel Merewether that artisans were not to go into the
interior of the country until all the prisoners were released.
The artisans went on their own responsibility, after a full
explanation of all the circumstances of the case.
THE TORNADO.
Mr. LUSK asked the Secretary of State for Foreign
Affairs if eight of the crew of the Tornado were still kept
-close prisoners by the Spanish authorities ; and seeing
that it was admitted in a despatch to Sir J. Cramp-
ton, dated Foreign Office, February Bth, 1867,
that all the crew of this ship had been "arbitrarily
detained, ou one pretext or another, for ►nany mouths, and
that "they have been subjected to hardships as unneces-
sary as they were cruel," if it was the intention of her
Majesty's Government to take any steps to obtain redress
for these unfortunate and ill-used British subjects?
Lord STANLEY said the eight persons were detained
on the ground that their evidence might ba required in
the event of the decision of the prizo court being ques-
tioned and carried to another tribunal. The matter of
redress must be comidered when matters had further
progressed.

NEW YORK, Feb. 19 (Evening).

The bill originating in the House of Representa-
tives, known as the Southern Military Government
Bill, is understood to have been framed under the
inspiration of Thaddeus Stevens, and embodied the
reconstruction policy of the extreme Radicals, with
such modifications as were considered absolutely
necessary to secure such support from the more
Conservative Republicans as would insure a two-
thirds vote in both Houses of Congress.
The bill was somewhat unexpectedly rejected by
the Senate, and a substitute offered by Mr. Sher-
man, of Ohio, was passed.

The substitute differed from the house Bill
principally in that it empowered the President
to appoint the military commanders of the districts
into which the South was to be divided, and to
detail the military forces for service in such districts.
This power the House Bill conferred upon- the
Lieutenant-General.

The substitute also prohibited the enforcement
of the death penalty in the South without the sanc-
tion of the President, and provided for the forma-
tion of new State Governments and their right to
Congressional representation when they adopted the
Constitutional Amendment.

The house Bill was opposed in the Senate, prin-
cipally on the grounds that it permitted the estab-
lishment of military rule without imposing such
restrictions as were necessary to prevent despotism.
Mr. Sherman's substitute encountered great oppo-
sition from the extremn. Radicals in the house, and
was finally rejected, Radicals voting with Democrats
against it. As the matter now stands, reconstruc-
tion seems to have made no progress unless a joint
committee of conference may be appointed, and
further consideration of the measure determined on.
The debates elicited have, however, thrown much
light upon the actual temper of Congress regarding
reconstruction, and have discovered considerable
dissension in the Radical ranks.
It is reported that several Radical members of
Congress have recently been closeted with the
President, and a resolution has been passed by the
House appointing a committee to inquire into what
transpired at such interviews. A preamble to the
resolution intimated corruption in the way of bar-
gains to defeat measures pending in Congress.
The Senate has finally, after reconsideration,
made an appropriation for the payment of the
salary of Mr. Harvey, United States Minister to
Portugal, who was deprived of his salary under
recent enactment in consequence of his having de-
nounced the course of Congress.

WEST CORNWALL.

The half-yearly meeting of proprietors was held at
Penzance on Saturday ; Mr. L. Vigurs in the chair.
The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the
report, said the directors sought powers to enable
them to bring to a final settlement an old land pur-
chase, and two or three other outstanding matters,
and also to effect a conversion of the debenture debt
of the company into debenture stock ; and when this
was done there would be no further necessity for
keeping the company alive. Unless some unforeseen
circumstances occurred the shareholders might de-
pend for the next three years on a dividend of 21-
per cent. ; in 1870 there would be an increase of
£2,000 in the rent, and a further increase in 1873,
and then they might calculate on 31 per cent. The
line had now been opened for passenger and goods
traffic on the broad gauge. The revenue account
for the past half year showed a disposable balance of
£5,006, of which £4,076 was available for division
among the proprietors of original stock, and out of
thin the directors recommended a dividend at the

rate of 21- per cent. per annum, leaving £174 to be
carried forward.

The report was adopted, the special powers sought
by the directors were granted, and the retiring di-
rectors were re-elected.

CENTRAL CORNWALL.

The half-yearly meeting was held on Friday at
Camelford ; Mr. Gurney presided.
The CHAIRMAN congratulated the shareholders on
the prospects of the undertaking. A basis of ar-
rangement b_etween the Central Cornwall, the Lon-
don and South Western, and the broad gauge com-
panies had been agreed to, and Parliamentary sanc-
tion of the terms was being sought. In the mean-
time the London and South Western Company had
matured arrangements for the working of this com-
pany's ides at 45 per cent. of the gross receipts,
and the payment to this company of a rebate on
certain portions of the traffic. A bill embodying
these terms, and asking power to purchase or lease
the lines of the Central Cornwall Company, also
powers for the thorough working of the whole sys-
tem of the London and South Western Company,
had been introduced. The bills were now before
Parliament, and no doubt they would be passed.
The report was adopted.
