BUENOS AYRES, April M.

The war in the interior was at an end, the national
troops having defeated the rebels in a decisive
battle. The latter, 6,000 strong, fled across the

Andes.

The Paraguayan war was without change. The
enemy showed no signs of exhaustion, but, on the
contrary, was becoming more troublesome to the
allied army.
Cholera had broken out at Caruza and Port
Alegre. The deaths in Buenos Ayres reached one
day to 100. Sixty persons had fled from the town.

Business was dull. Money abundant.
class bills were done at 6 and 7 per cent per annum.

DESTRUCTIVE STORMS.

The two thunderstorms of the 13th and 11th
May were remarkably severe and destructive.
St. Paul's Church, New York, on Monday night
was struck by lightning, although no serious
harm was done. A house in that city was fired
from the same cause, but the flames were ex-
tinguished. Two men, who were in a sewer, were
almost drowned by the sudden inundation. A build-
ing in Brooklyn was consumed by the fire caused
by lightning. At one o'clock on the. morning of
14th, during the rain storm, the telegraph wire
leading into the New Jersey Central Railroad Com-
pany depot, at Plainfield, was struck by lightning.
The current passed down the wire into the building,
setting the telegraph office on fire, and resulting in
the complete destruction of the depot, which was
one of the largest on the line of this company's
road. The loss is estimated at about $6,000. This
is the second depot belonging to this company
which has been destroyed by fire during the present
month, the first being at Somerville. At half-past
ten o'clock on Monday evening, the barn of the
widow Laforge, on the road between New Durham
and Samptown, in Piscataway township, about
seven miles from New Brunswick, was struck and
entirely consumed. A horse, two wagons, and a lot
of hay and grain were burned. The damage was
about two thousand dollars. In Trenton, the house
of Mr. Joshua Jeffries, in North Warren-street,
was struck, and considerable damage was done, al-
though no one was injured. The electric fluid
passed within three feet of the bed of a young girl,
who was terribly frightened, but not hurt.
In Newark, New Jersey, the flagpole on the cupola
of Mayor Peddie's truck manufactory, in Campfield-
street, was struck and shattered. The woodwork
of the cupola was somewhat splintered. A pile of
trunks was knocked down, and the report sounded
as if a brass piece had been fired in the building.—

A SERIOUS ACCIDENT, AND ITS CONSEQUENCES.—Some
time back a gentleman residing at Wortham, in Notfo k,
named Balls, on returning from liarieston Market, fell from
his horse, and sustained so serious an illness inconsequence
that all his hair came off. He was perfectly bald. His
friend, the Rev. Mr. Daniel, offered him a wig as a tempo-
rary substitute; and in the meantime he tried very fortu-
nately the effects of Rowlands' Macassar Oil. What was
the consequence? Part of a bottle produced the re-growth
of a thick and luxuriant head of hair, with (what the first or
original growth Lad NOT) a beautiful tendency to curl. This
is a very striking instance of efficacy from the fact of the
debility which preceded the restoration.

OCEAN TELEGRAPHY.

The practicability of telegraphic communication
through mid-ocean having long since been so com-
pletely settled as to dispel the last fingerings of
scepticism the field of competition is now fairly
open for other lines. The present cables between
Ireland and Newfoundland present to the citizens of
this country two objections of so strongly marked
a character that the establishment of competing
lines is felt to be a necessity, and their accom-
plishment only the work of time. One lies in the
fact that the existing line is mainly owned and con-
trolled by British capital, and that in the event of
hostilities with England, its detrimental use could
only be prevente Iby its destruction. The other is,
that its management has been characterised from
the start by extreme illiberality. The charge for
the transmission of messages is so excessive as to be
almost prohibitive, and as a natural consequence of
its burdensome tariff, the line has only been worked
to a fractional extent of its capacity. The only
remedy against such unwarrantable disregard of
public convenience, to say nothing of public rights,
is that which is applicable to all other forms of busi-
ness enterprise. This remedy, we are glad to ob-
serve, a company of New York capitalists is about
to have recourse to. The Legislature of that State
has granted the requisite authority for the construc-
tion of a line between New York city and Brest, in
France. The length of the cable will necessarily be
greater than by some of the more tropical routes
hitherto proposed, but the connection with France
will have the advantage of directness. The
bill confers upon the grantees the exclusive right
of laying and working telegraphic cables from
New York to France for twenty years, provided
that the communication shall be established
and in successful operation within two years. The
only reservation is that the State, under certain
circumstances, shall from time to time have prece-
denc3 in the use of the cable, or power to transfer
a similar right to the United States Government. It
is said that the Emperor of France is not only favour-

able to the undertaking, but ready to promote it
with sub3tantial aid. In view of the rapi fly in-
creasing business relations between this country and
Europe, the large amount of travel and social in-
terchange, and the constant tide of immigration, an
enterprise like this will be warmly welcomed. It
will lift from the press the enormous burden now
imposed, and bring within the reach of ordinary
purses the use of a power which should be an instru-
ment of good instead of an engine of speculation.

TRANSPARENT CANDLES.—If you only
want something pretty to look at, without minding
a little smoke and smell, and a little bending and running
over if the room should happen to be rather warmer than
usual, buy any of the very transparent low quality Para-
fine Candles now sold freely everywhere at one shilling
per pound ; but if, along with beauty of appearance, you
require steady brilliancy of light, and freedom from risk of
these little occasional mishaps, tell your dealer to supply
you with

"PRICE'S GOLD MEDAL PALMITINE CANDLES,',
which, though charged at a higher price per pound, are
really cheaper when the difference of quality is taken into
account. They are believed to be the very best substitute
yet produced for real Wax and Spermaceti, now at such
an extravagant price, and aro being introduced in place of
them in the West-end Clubs and elsewhere where ex-
cellence of quality is studied as well as economy.

TO ADMIRERS OF LIGHT CARRIAGES
H A R T,
. 79, NEW BOND-STREET,
has introduced one of the lightest four-wheeled Carriages
in London. The style is the T cart or Stanhope phaeton,
on an improved principle.

The peculiarity of this carriage is, it has sufficient room
for four persons, if required, and is 3 cwt. loss than the
usual ones ; it has no perch, and can lock round in any
narrow lane. The wheels are hickory, with steel tyres,
springs only one inch wide, and has Lone's patent steel-
coated iron axles, which have received so many testimo-
nials.

S. H. wishes to remind the public it has been proved
many valuable horses are ruined by being overloaded with
a heavy carriage. It is a well-known fact that the intro-
duction of light carriages is only now in its infancy. One
is on view, and several to be seen building to order.
An inspection is solicited.

MAILS TO INDIA.

Sir H. R..9.WLIIiSON asked the Secretary to the T rea-
sury whether, in the event of the new proposed contract
with the Peninsular and Oriental Company for the mail
service to the East being approved by the Legislature, it
was the intention of her Majesty's Government to increase
the rates of postage on overland letters between England
and India?

Mr. HUNT said it was announced last session that when

the improved postal system came into operation the post-
age of letters would ba increased by 3d. per half ounce,
and that intention still remained.
OCCUPIERS OF SMALL TENEMENTS.

Sir W. HUTT asked the Attorney-General whether.
under the provisions of the Representation of the People
Act, the overseers of the poor required to place on the
rate-book ~the names of all the occupiers of tenements
whose ,rates before the passing of that act were paid by
the owner, according to the provisions of the Small Tene-
ment Act ?

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL referred the hon.
gentleman to the interpellation clause of the Reform Bill,
which fully met the question, and where it did not the
occupiers would have to be placed on the rate-book.
STREET REGULATIONS ACT.
On the motion for the second reading of the bill for the
amendment of the Street Regulations Act,
Mr. AYRTON objected to the provision of the bill
which enacted that only costerrnoegers should be allowed
to expose their goods on certain vacant spaces in front of
houses and other places. Shopkeepers had a better righ t
to use these tpaceg, and he could not see why such a pri
vilege should be given to persons who did not pay heavy
rates and taxes.

Mr. HARDY said he did not see that the bill at all in-
terfered with the rights of property. Tho original clause
was one of such extreme stringency that to put it into
operation as it stood it bad been found that the groates
hardships would be occasioned ; therefore, to meet the
case, the present bill had been introduced, which gave
powers to the police to allow goods to be exposed for sale
by street hawkers under certain regulations.
Sir G. BOWYER said last session the question of Re-
form had so absorbed attention that other things had been
passed over most hurriedly, and the present bill was the
result of this hssty legislation. He thought the best
thing to do was to repeal the sixth section of the
original bill altogether, and in committee he should be
prepared to move the omission of the clause.
After a few words the bill was read a second time, and
ordered to be committed on Thursday.
THE ABYSSLNIAN EXPEDITION.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER laid on the

Lord R. MONTAGU said the purchase was only to be

amounted to 41,475, and that sum had only boon ex-
pended.

BRITISH MUSEUM.

Mr. LAYARD asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer
whether it was his intention to propose during the present
session of Parliament any measure for the better adminis-
tration of the British Museum and other institutions in the
United Kingdom connected with science and art ?,
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said Lo
had no intention of bringing in such a bill. He was at
present engaged on a smaller measure which would ne-
cessitate the separation of some of the collections—
which measure was promised last year.

October 5, 1567.
SlR,—Some months back I had an attack of Bron,hitis,
which left at times a ticklinz in the Throat, with other un-
plea.ant feelings. I was advised to try the BALSAM or
ANISEED; I did so. and have found very ereat relief ; it is
most comforting in allaying the irritation, and giving
streng-th to the voice.
You are at liberty to make use of this as you think proper,

done. With many thanks from your obedient servant,

IRELAND.

DUBLIN, Nov. 24.
This morning, about one o'clock, as Inspector
Burke and a constable were standing at the door
of the police-station in Sackville-lane, in this city,
a man, who had a companion, deliberately fired at
them from the corner of the laneway that opens
into Earl-street. The policemen immediately pur-
sued the assassins, but they mingled with the per-
sons passing down an adjoining street, and were
lost. Search was made for the bullet, but only some
half-burnt wadding could be found. Dublin is un-
usually quiet.
Yesterday evening mobs attacked several bakers'
shops in Belfast, and the police had to charge the
mobs and drive them away by force.
On Friday night, when returning from the fair
of Ballymahon, county Langford, a respectable
farmer, named Waters, was barbarously murdered
by being stabbed in the chest. He was found dead
on the public road next morning near his own house.
No motive is known for the deed, nor is there any
clue to the assassin. The deceased was a Protes-
tant, and by some his murder is attributed to
Fenianism, as ho had been heard speaking strongly
about the Manchester convicts that evening.

The news of the execution of the Fenian mur-
derers in Manchester has not elicited any demon-
stration of sympathy or indignation Here. While
every person of humane and generous feeling must
deplore the necessity of vindicating the law by so
terrible an example, yet a deep impression prevails
that no other course was left open to the authorities
after the attempts at intimidation which were made
by the friends of the prisoners. There is reason to
expect that it will have a salutary effect upon the
disaffected classes. They have been taught by a
certain class of journals to believe that under no
circumstances would the British Government ven-
ture to enforce the extreme penalty even for the
highest crime known to the law where it can be
constructed as a political offence. They are now un-
deceived and, it is to be hoped, will profit by the
lesson. The "national" press is, of course, highly
incensed at the failure of their efforts to frighten
the Government, and speak in no measured terms
of the conduct of the jury, the Judges, and the
Crown. The Nation, which is the most able and
respectable of the popular organs, has an article on
what it calls " the tragedy at Manchester," and
another article, headed " Hypocrisy unmasked,"
and written in the same spirit, discusses at length
the evidence given at the trial, and asserts that upon
such grounds the Crown might doom three-fourths
of the population of Ireland to the fate of the con-
victs. The Irishman is published in mourning sheets.
There is DO expression of repentance for the lang-
guage which it used—indiscreet, to say the least--
while the fate of its friends was trembling in the
balance.
London, England, 1867-11-25

WESTMINSTER.

ALLEGED IMPROPER APPREHENSION AND FALSE
EVIDENCE BY A PoLicir.max.—Clara Bell, a,
respectable-looking girl, was charged with soliciting
men in the street for the purpose of prostitution.

Robert Randall, 57 T, said that on Saturday
night he was on duty in the King's-road, Chelsea,
and saw the prisoner go up to two gentlemen and
accost them for the purposes of prostitution. The
gentlemen pushed her away, and he took her into
custody, as there had been complaints of this sort
of conduct.

Mr. Selfe—What do you know of the defendant?
Randall—l have known her for six or seven
years about Chelsea as a servant girl, but for the
last fortnight I have seen her about the streets with
women of loose character.

Defendant—l deny that I spoke to any gentle-
men, and I have a friend here to prove it. I found
this constable drinking in a publichouse with a man
and woman named Trimby, and I made a remark
about their crippled son, and then this constable
followed me out and took me into custody, and
when Mrs. Skinner my friend interfered ho struck
her, and she fell and cut ber eye.
The sergeant who took the charge at the station
said—When the defendant was asked what she was
she said she had been a prostitute for a fortnight.
Defendant--I know nothing about it.

Mrs. Skinner—l was with her at the public-house.
I never left her, and I swear that she never spoke
to any gentlemen. When this constable charged
her I said she had done nothing and should not go,
and then he gave me a blow which made me fall
and cut my eye.

Randall having admitted that Mrs. Skinner wag
a respectable woman, and that he had been in the
public-house,

Mr, Selfe discharged the accused.

SPORTING NOTES.

Mr. S. Merry may be congratulated upon havingbrought
to a satisfactory conclusion one of the largest Autumn
Meetings ever held at Warwick, whether as regards large
fields, the quality of the competitors, or the number of the
visitors who were attracted to the last race gathering of
the season. The principal race, the Midland Counties
Handicap, run on Thursday,was won easily by Blinkhoolie,
who defeated a field of seventeen runners with consum-
mate ease, and, had he been kept in reserve, would most
likely have proved good enough to win one or two of the
principal spring handicaps. He is advertised to be disposed
of by Messrs. Tattersall to-day, but I should question if
Mr. Chaplin will be inclined to part with him after his
success last week.

Weather permitting, the programme of Croydon bids
fair to afford three capital days' sport, and I am glad to
see the number of events is limited to five per diem, which
amply sufficient to get through comfortably during those
Alert afternoons. From the thirty-six horses nominated
is the Stewards' Plate a large field may bo anticipated, and
of these I must content myself by naming—STANDARD
BEARER, THE GUIDE, and HELICE as likely to produce the
winner, each of whom I fancy in the order named. For the
Grand National Hurdle Race some twelve of the eighteen
acceptances will be likely to be found at the post, but good
as Marie Louise has proved herself lately she has too much
weight for my fancy on this occasion, and as LISTON is ono
of the best looking horses in the race and leniently treated
by the handicapper ho must be my selection. SERIOUS
CASE and OLDMINSTER appear to me the most attractive
names in the Steeplechase Sweepstakes, and I should
recommend ADVERTISEMENT in the Hunters' Stakes.
The Great Metropolitan Steeplechase is the only race
complete for analysis on Wednesday, and . as there are
twenty-seven " contents" left in to contest this valuable
priz,, all of whom read to have a chance, a great amount
of speculation is sure to take place on the result. Chimney
Sweep is instdlled first:favourite, and deservedly so from
the easy style in which he squandered a largo field at
Warwick last Friday. There aro half a dozen horses
handicapped above him in the race, but none of them are
likely in my estimation to produce the winner. Iu fact I
do not see anything likely to beat Lord Coventry's re-
presentative, unless it is The Doctor and Sprite. The
former is a good horse when wanted, but as this may not
be his journey I prefer standing CHIMNEY SWEEP and
SPRITE, ono of whom I confidently anticipate will fnr-
Dish the winner. Concerning the Croydon Cup, a weight
for age race, on Thursday, BENAZET Or ASTROLABE ought
to win.

A FRESH MAN.

H. KELLEY AND J. SADLEa.

MATCH FOR £3OO A-SIDE AND THE
CHAMPIONSHIP.

The great scullers' match of the seasog will take place
on Wednesday next, at half-past two o'clock in the after-
noon, the distance to be rowed being over the Champion-
ship course (about 4 miles 3 furlongs), from Putney to
Mortlake. Both men are in the best of health
and condition, and one of - the greatest aquatic
contests on record may be anticipated. H. Kelley
is supported by a host of friends, and conse-
quently first favourite, although at trifling odds, as 6 to 4
would be freely taken about his opponent's chance. He
has in the course of a long career d•feated all the best
talent that could be brought against him. Sailer, how-
ever, will be found a worthy antagonist, and possesses
the advantage of youth, being some seven or eight years
younger than Kelley. This year he has shown great im-
provement in all his matches, both as regards pace and
form, and when he rowed Chambers last year he was ad-
mitted to be nearly as good as his present rival. Since then
he has defeated Kelly over a two mile course at the Paris
Regatta; and although excuses aao made on the latter's
behalf the question as to whether it was tho fluke many
of the champion's supporters seem to think, will now be
satisfactorily settled. His match with Percy at King's
Lynn in September proves his ability to stay, and that he
possesses the necessary speed. He is now located at pri-
vate apartments in the High-street of Putney, in company
with Pedgrift (who rows his match to day), George
liammerton, and May, and will come to the post in fine
fettle. A now boat has been built for him by Jewitt, of
Dunstan, Newcastle-upon-Tyne; but I expect Kelley will
turn out the winner.

Department whether he was prepared to state what course

Mr. HARDY said at present her Majesty's Government

commissioners was not sufficiently full to•enable the Go.,

The Price of Gold.

The quotation of gold at Paris Is about at par, an
the short exchange ou London is 25f. 150. per £1 sterling.
(), cmiparing these rates with the English Mint price of
104 d. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that
gold is about 1-:oth per cent. dearer in Paris than in Lon-
don.

fhewunt• of exchange at New Tork on London for bills
at 60 days' eight is about 10g1 per cent. At this rate ther
is no profit on the importation of gold from the United
States.
