FRENCH ACADEMY OF SCIENCES.

At the last sitting MU. Alph. Milne Edwards
and Grandidier sent in a paper on the Cryptoprocta,

a genus of mammalia so named in 1833 by Ben-
nett, who, however, had but a single specimen of it,
Cryptoprocta ferox, which, moreover, was young,
and had not yet cut all its teeth ; so that one of the
chief characteristics was wanting. Since then no
other individual of this kind had been found, either
dead or alive. M. Grandidier, who has recently
returned from a voyage to Madagascar, has been
fortunate enough to supply this deficiency,
having brought over the whole skin and
head of one, and the skeletons of two
others, all full grown. An attentive study of
these new specimens has led the authors of the paper
to conclude that the Cryptoprocta belongs to the
feline genus and not to that of the Viverridx, or
Civet, as Bennett had supposed ; its front teeth
being arranged in two rows, and presenting other
peculiarities in common with those of the cat. There
is one circumstance, however, which distinguishes it
from the latter ; it does not walk on its toes like the
cat, but on the soles of its feet like the bear ; it is
plantigrade, and not digitigrade. A paper WAS
received from M. Augeraud on a fall of Aero-
liths in the plain of Tradjera near Constantina,
Algeria, on the 9th of June last, at about half-
past 10 p.m. He states that the sky was illumi-
nated for a few seconds, and that a sound resembling
thunder was heard, which ended in three loud and
distinct reports like that of cannon. The phenome-
non was remarked at Setif, at 15 kilometres N.W. of
Tadjera, the place where the aeroliths fell ; at Ouled
Salah, a distance of GO kil. from the same place;
at Enlma, 20 kil. W., and at Bou Saada, 160 kil.
N.E. The fire-ball appeared in the heavens at
about 60 deg. above the horizon, moved over 25
degrees in the course of from 5 to 8 seconds, and
disappeared at about 40 degrees above the horizon.
It was three times the apparent size of Venus, and
left behind a luminous train of the length of about
10 deg. Ihe light was white, and intense enough
to render objects of the size of a man's fist visible
at a reasonable distance. A few of the aeroliths
picked up at Tadjera accompanied the paper.
Dr. Poulet communicated certain observations of
his on the whooping cough, showing that it was in-
fectious, the breath of the patients being infested
with a multitude of infusoria or animalcules, which
he distinctly perceived through the microscope to
be the Monas termo or Bacterium bacillus.

The additions to be made to the assurances of the So-
ciety just transferred will be in the same proportion, but
will be necessarily smaller in amount, in consideration of
the shorter time, that. is to say, of the eighteen months
only in which they have accrued.
The Directors consider that these results are satisfactory,
and they trust that the Proprietors will be of the same
opinion; looking at the progress which the Company has
made during the last twenty years and the position which
it has now attained they feel themselves justified in anti-
cipating that its future career will be a successful one.
They will only add, that they hope in a few weeks to be
enabled to remove from their Temporary Offices to the new
premises in Pall-mall, and thenceforth to have more suit-
able accommodation for the carrying on of the Company's
business than it has been their good fortune of late years to
enTjoy.

of the population condemned to idleness, and the'
unpleasant task of waiting for something to turn
up.' There are many rich claims on the original
working, but the majority of the miners can
obtain little more than bare wages. The reefs
at the Tygong look well, but the want of proper ma-
chinery or crushing operates materially against
success. Still the field of gold on the whole con-
tinues good. The ' washing up' has nearly ceased,
and the diggers are again busied in getting out their
stuff. In some places there is want of water for
washing. The news from Albany is very good.
The Banner states that the Excelsior Company
at Twist's Creek, Yackandandah, have just com-
pleted a crushing of 46 tons, and the return
is over 100 ounces of good gold. Twenty-
four tons from th 3 Homeward Bound Reef
yielded 86 ounces, the quartz being taken from a
depth of 125 feet. At Araluen, where the miners
have been obstructed by floods, operations have

recommenced, and things are going on well. The
claims are now clear of water, and are again being

worked,

Deducting the sums payable on demand, or at an early
maturity, it will be found that the realised assets above set
forth amount to £2,897,856 10s. 3d., and the Proprietors
will observe that of this amount £177,680, their paid-up
capital, is set apart exclusively for them; £1,738,661 16s. 6d.
exclusively for the policyholders, and £981,514 135.9.1. for
both. This last item forms the provision for the present
bonus, and the accumulating fund for future bonuses and
expenses, and it is recommended accordingly that £208,774
be now appropriated for immediate distribution, leaving
£772,740 13s 9d. to accumulate, and also to meet the reduc-
tions of premium in respect of the policies transferred by
the National Mercantile Assurance Society, the first of
which reductions, it may be remembered, is to take place
in 1868.
The share of the present distribution pertaining to the
proprietors will be paid to them, with the dividend, early
in October. The portion to be allotted to the policyholders
will be determined as quickly all possible, and notices of
the addition made in each case despatched to them; but
this prccess will necessarily occupy considerable time.
Meanwhile some idea may be formed of the amount of these
reversionary additions by an examination of the subjoined
table, which exhibits them in the instance of assurances
twenty years old, effected on lives of various ages at com-
mencement of the risk.

AUSTRIA.

VIENNA, August 15.

The Austrian members of the Anstro-Hungarian
Conference for the settlement of common affairs
propose that Austria should contribute 66 2 3 per
cent., and Hungary 33 1-3 per cent. to the public
expenditure. The Hungarian members propose
that the share of Hungary should be only 25
per cent.

It is asserted that an interview between the
Emperor of Austria and the King of Prussia is con-
templated. This interview is to take place at
Carlsbad, on the return of the Emperor of Austria

General Klapka arrived here yesterday. He

25 per cent. on the total present expenditure of the
Empire.

Sudden Death of the Mayor of Bath.

A very tragical event took place at Bath last
night. For some years past it has been
usual to have weekly " penny readings," which were
introduced into the city by the originator of them,
the Rev. James Fleming, formerly incumbent of All
Saint's, Bath, but now of Camden Chapel, Cam-
berwell. These readings have been most suc-
cessful, and have always been crowded. The
local authorities have sanctioned them by their pre-
sence, and either the mayor or some leading citizen
has usually presided. Last Friday evening the newly-
elected Mayor, Mr. Francis Slack, took the chair
in the presence of a very large number of people
assembled in the beautiful room of the Guilihall, a
building erected from the designs of the well-known
Inigo Jones. His worship was observed to grow
suddenly faint. Three medical gentlemen—Messrs.
Spender, Barter, and Gore—who happened to be
present. immediately ran forward, but their assist-
ance was unavailing. The mayor was dead. Death,
in fact, had been instantaneous. He was laid out
in the Council Chamber, and the sight of one
so well known, who but a few minutes before had
addressed " his fellow-citizens," thus lying life-
less with his robes of office still about him,
caused the most profound and painful im-
pression. Mr. Slack was a solicitor in very
large practice, and in that capacity he took a very
prominent part in the proceedings connected with
the Road murder, being, we believe, convinced—
though, as it now turns out, incorrectly—that the
father of the murdered child was the eriminid. As a
politician, he had taken an active part as a moderate
Liberal. He was elected mayor for the first time on
November 9of the present year. He bad entered
upon the duties of his office with eitreme assiduity,
and had on Thursday presided at the distribution of
prizes in connection with the Oxford local examin-
ations. It was then noticed how fagged Mr.
Slack looked, but no one apprehended that he was
seriously ill, or that so sad a tragedy was close
at hand. The death of a mayor while in office has
not occurred at Bath for very many years.

men,—With reference to the Certificates of Debenture, due
on the 15th instant, I am instructed to inform you that
the committee have taken steps to bring the trust under
the control of the English Courts, and to prevent any
hostile or prejudicial action by forced sale of the collateral
securities or otherwise.
With this view they have instituted a suit, as advisod
by counsel, in order, as far as practicable, to insure the
due administration of the trust, and to facilitate the car-
rying out the scheme of reconstruction indicated in the
report of the Committee of Investigation.
In the meantime I ant to request that, pending the
completion of definite arrangements, you will retain your
certificates.

I am also instructed to Meina you that the Committee
have under serious conskkration the wishes expressed by
many holders of Certificates of Debentures, that they
should ba united in the trust for these securities with oao
or more of the existing trustees, and they will shortly
make a further announcement on the subject.—l
gentlemen, your obedient servant,
W. 11. SMITHERS, Secretary.

closing 70i to -I, and the 1862's 69i to I. The 10-40 Five
per cent. Bonds are 67 to Illinois Central Shares have
been in fair demand, and leave off 854 to 86i. Erie were
barely steady until to-clay, when, on higher quotations

M
the state of ostreiculture in the commerce of
Marennes, Charente-Inferieure, and especially on
the artificial oyster-beds of the rock of Der. M.
Delidon considers the current of the natural vehicle
by which the spat of the oyster is carried to those
places where it finds suitable materials to fix itself,
but if no obstacle be put in the way of the current
an immense quantity of the spat will be taken out
to the open sea and utterly lost ; and it is to avoid
this that collectors are formed. The ancient
Romans used to make them of timber, and this
material is used to this day with perfect success,
with the single drawback that timber is not very
durable. Stone, sea-shells, and tiles, therefore,
answer much better, but even these are unattended
by annoyance, for as the oyster only travels once
in its life, that is, in the state of spat, it becomes
necessary, after a certain time, in order not to be
at the expense of multiplying the collectors, to de-
tach the young oyster from the stone or tile, and
transfer it to the definitive oyster bed. Now, in
this preliminary operation at least 25 per cent. of
the young oysters are destroyed, because of the
thinness of their shells, which break in the attempt
of separating them from the tile or stone. This
serious loss is partly owing, according to M. Deli-
don, to the clumsy shape of the knife with which
the operation is perforMed; but in a great measure
also to the circumstance that the oyster is fixed to
the naked tile or stone, whereas, if the latter were
coated with some substance that would resist the
action of the water, but could be removed without
much difficulty by mechanical means, all this loss
might be obviated. M. Delidon recommends for
this purpose a composition he has tried successfully
for the space of two years, and consisting of plaster
of l'als made up into a paste with oil.

TO TIIE EDITOR OF TILE SUN.

Sin,—l have the honour to inform you that the
half•yearly meeting of shareholders of the above
company was held here to-thy at two o'clock, when
the accompanying report of the directora was unani-
mously adopted.----I have the honour to be, Sir,
your obedient servant,

H. W. Hum', Secretary.

(REPORT.)
The directors have the satisfaction of reporting
the increased prosperity of the Company. The
balance at credit of profit and loss account is the
largest as yet in any half-year, and amounts to
£1,937 2s. 4d. There has been a falling off in the
receipts for bath tickets, amounting to £4B, as com-
pared with the corresponding period last year. Th is
has arisen from the decrease in May and June last
—at the time when, owing to the opening of the
Paris Exhibition, many of the habitual frequenters
of the Hamniam, were absent from London. During
July, August, and September, 1867, the nuinbers
have increased as compared with the same mouths
in 1866. There has been a slight decrease in the
cafe account, while in the hotel account there has
been an increase of £4B. The balance of increased
expenditure arises from two half-years' rent be-
coming due in the one half-year that has expired,
in consequence of the first lease of the premises
falling in, and the last rent under it being payable
in advance. The working expenses hare been
diminished by £4l lls. 7d., the advertising account
by £29 2s. 6d., and the amount of salaries by £25
19s. On the occasion of the Sultan's visit to England
the bath was placed at the disposal of his suite.
There has recently been received the following
acknowledgment. Fuad Pacha, in a letter, dated
30th October, to the managing director, writes :
" In thus expressing to you the acknowledgments of
the Sublime Porte, I wish also to say how much we
have been gratified by the amiability with which
you placed, during our visit to London in July last,
the Turkish bath which you have constructed in that
capital, at the disposal of the suite of his Imperial
Majesty the Sultan. Several persons attached to
the suite of his Imperial Majesty did take advantage
of this gracious offer, and we were charmed to dis-
cover so far from our own dear country one of our
national institutions, so generally in use amongst
us. It is therefore for me a real pleasure to con-
vey to you these acknowledgments." The direc-
tors beg to propose a dividend, at the rate
of 8 per cent. per annum, amounting to £l7B. This
will leave a reserve of £642 13s. to meet possible
contingencies after all outstanding claims are settled.
It being the turn of H. Wrenfordsley, Esq., and
Dr. Bryce, to retire from the direction, it is proposed
that H. Wrenfordsley, Esq., be re-elected, and that
Francis Francis, Esq., of the Firs, Twickenham, be
elected director in the place of Dr. Bryce. It is
proposed that Mr. Glover be re-elected as auditor.
