PARIS, Aug. 15

The Emperor has received in private audience
the Prussian Ambassador at Paris, who delivered
to his Majesty the reply of the Prussian Cabinet
to the French note expressing a wish for the rectifi-
cation of the French frontier. The Prussian Go-
vernment declared any such rectification to be in-
admissible. His Majesty, in reply, stated to Coupt
Von Goltz that it was in order to satisfy public
opinion in France that he had expressed that wish
to the Prussian Government. He had considered
such a wish just, but acknowledged the fairness of
the arguments brought forward by the Prussian
Cabinet, and added that the good relations between
Prussia and France should in no case be dis-
turbed. In conclusion, his Majesty expressed a
hope that Prussia would not overstep the line of the
Maine.

EAGLE INSURANCE COMPANY, London.
REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS,
For the year ending 30th June, 1866, read at the ANNUAL
GENERAL MEETING, 10th August, 1866.
CHARLES CHATFIELD, Esq., in the chair.
The Directors have the satisfaction of reporting to the
proprietors that, in pursuance of the resolutions unani-
mously passed at the Special General Meeting held in
April last, the amalgamation of the National Mercantile
Assurance Society with the Eagle has been carried into
effect, and two of the directors of that society—Mr. Wil-
coxon (heretofore the chairman), and Mr. William Fre-
derick De la Rue—nano occupy seats at the Eagle Board.
The following account exhibits the increased income
and outgoing of the year arising from the junction, which
it may be remembered takes effect retrospectively, and the
balance-sheet shows the assets as they existed on the 30th
Juno last, augmented by those just. transferred.
By the Surplus Fund account it will be seen that the
total income from premiums and interest is .£183,376 Os.
11d., and the total outgoing £414,790 13s. 6d. The dif-
ference, £68,585 7s. 5d., and the surplus fund contributed
by the amalgamated society, viz., £151,545 Bs. 6d., increase
thoon foregoing year ; but at the same

The change in the financial position of the Company
precludes an exact comptuison with former years. The
expenses of management of the Eagle for the year aro al-
most identical iu amount with those of the last. The ex-
penses of the National Mercantile Society will, of course,
henceforth cease.

Deducting the several items payable on demand, or at
an early maturity, the realised assets, as set forth' in the
balance sheet, amount to £2,559,135 4s. Bd. Of this sum
£178,340 belongs exclusively to the proprietors, £1,481,699

partly to the one and partly to the other. The last two
items subject, of course, to exact adjustment at each quin-
quennial investigation.
It remains only for the Directors to mention thaf, since
the last annual meeting the Company has lost, by the de-
cease of Sir William Gore Ouseley, and by the retirement
of Mr. Gould, the services of two of the members of the
board. Both gentlemen were much respected, and it is
with great regret that the directors have to make this an-
nouncement.

SCHOOL EXCURSION AND TREAT.—Yesterday
about 600 of the children and friends of the Northern
Schools of St. Martin-in-the-Fields marched, with flags
and banners flying, from their schools in Castle-street,
Long-acre, to Ludgate-hill station, where a special train
was in readiness to convey them to the romantic COMM;
St. Mary Cray, Kent. A very substantial dinner and tea
were provided by the liberality of the parishioners and
other friends. Cricket and a variety of rural games amused
the children during the day. In the evening a fire-bal-
loon and a display of fire-works called the children to-
gether for the departure ; and they returned to their
homes without an accident of any kind having occurred
to mar the pleasures of the day, and grateful to their bene-
factors who had enabled them to spend such a happy day
in the country.

HOMELESS WOMEN AND CHILDREN,
14A, Providence-row, Finsbury, E.O.
Sixty Thousand Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and
Breakfasts, have been given in this Institution to the
destitute, who otherwise would have had to pass the
nights in the bleak streets or under railway arches.
At present nearly 500 Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and
Breakfasts, are given gratuitously every week. The poor
from all parts are admitted, the only condition being that
they are homeless and starving. The Manager &c.,
receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand-
ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each
night numbers of young women, children, and orphans
are, for want accommodation, refused admittance, and have
to spend night after night in the cold, wet, and sleet. To
meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda-
tion, £2;000 has been raised, but to accomplish the
work a sum of at least £l,OOO more will 'so required.
Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it
is proposed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur-
pose will allow, to give bread and coals to poor families
in want. Will you, in your charity, help to carry on and
accomplish what has been begun ? Will you help to give
shelter to the really homeless, and food to the really
starving ? The smallest donation will be most welcome,
and, night and morning, the prayers of the destitute will
be offered in your behalf.

Sixty Thousand Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and

nights in the bleak streets or under railway arches.
At present nearly 500 Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and
Breakfasts, are given gratuitouslY every week. The poor
from all parts aro admitted, the only condition being that
they are homeless and starving. The Manager &c.,
receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand-
ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each
night numbers of young women, children, and orphans
are, for want accommodation, refusedadmittance, andhave
to spend night after night in the cold, wet, and sleet. To
meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda-
tion, £2,000 has been raised, but to accomplish the
work a sum of at least £l,OOO more will be required.
Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it
is propsed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur-
pose will allow, to give bread and coals to poor families
in want. Will' you, in your charity, help to carry on and
accomplish what has been begun? Will you help to give
shelter to the really homeless, and food to the really
starving ? 'the smallest donation will be most welcome,
and, night and morning, the prayers of the destitute will
be offered in your behalf.

Meeting of the Reform League.

Last evening a special meeting of the vice-presi-
dents, council, and delegates of branches of the
Reform League was held at the League-rooms,
Adelphi-terrace, Strand—Mr. Edmond Beales in
the chair.

The Secretary read correspondence from various
parts of the country, thanking the League for its
recent action in upholding the right of public meet-
ing.

The CHAIRMAN then reported the proceedings
connected with his recent visit to Manchester, East
Lancashire, and Bradford, at each of which places
large and enthusiastic meetings had been held, and
the principles of the League affirmed by reso-
lutions passed unanimously. His own reception,
as president of the League, had been of the most
enthusiastic character, and not only at the public
meetings, but in private circles, he found the objects
of the League upheld, and the general feeling pre-
valent throughout the country that the events of the
last month have done more to hasten on the progress
of reform than all the exertions of the last 30 years.
(Hear.)
Reports were then given in by various deputations
of meetings having been held and branches formed
in the City, Walworth, Paddington, Poplar, Wool-
wich, Marylebone, Soho, and other places.
On the motion of Mr. Leverson, seconded by Mr.
Merriman, it was resolved, " That a bazaar in aid
of the funds of the League be held early in the
ensuing spring ;" and a committee of seven were
appointed to attend to the same.

On the motion of Mr. Alantle, seconded by Mr.
Brighting, a committee was appointed to consider
the propriety of holding a demonstration at the
Crystal Palace in the month of September, and to
report to the next meeting.
Some routine business having been transacted
connected with extending the organisation of the
League, the proceedings then terminated with a vote
of thanks to the chairman and to Mr. Sanders, the
chairman of the City Lands Committee, for the e 34-
cellent arrangements made by him in connection
with the late meeting at the Guildhall.

MR. ErRE, ex-governor of Jamaica, has accepted
an invitation to a banquet at Southampton on Tuesday

on, contained the following recommendations:—

"1. That the Committee of Council on Education, as
being no longer adapted to the purpose for which it was
formed, should cease to exist.

"2. That there should be a Minister of Public Instruc-
tion, with a seat in the Cabinet, who should be entrusted
with the care and superintendence of all matters relating to
the national encouragemett of science and art and popular
education in every part of the country.
"3. That although they cannot endanger the supply of
competent teachers by proposing abandonment of the

teacher's certificate as a condition of assistance -to the
school, such a modification of that condition should be
adopted as would prevent it from being, as it now is, an
impediment to the extension of education.
"4. The establishment of local organisation in connec-
tion with the Education Department; so as to put an end
to the present injurious centralisation, and enable the
superintendence of education to be conducted in a manner
similar to that in which the poor law is administered by
boards of guardians under the guidance and control of the
Poor-law Board.

"5. That power should be given to levy a rate for the
promotion of education in certain cases, to be defined.

" 6. That to meet the difficulty caused by small area and
population of many parishes, small schools should be com-
bined under a good circulating master, or small parishes
combined with a good central school, as the circumstances
of the locality might render most expedient.
"7. That the numerous educational endowments, now
almost useless, should bo reformed, and male available.
"8. That the difficulty caused by religious differences
should bo met by the compulsory adoption of the Con-
science Clause,' in every trust deed, and the Education
31inister being empowered to suspend the annual grant to
any school on proof of exclusioa ur unltio restraint of non-
conformists on religious grounds.

" 9. That the impediments to education in Wales, arising
from the state of religious opinion in that country, should
be met by the adoption, in a liberal spirit, of some plan simi-
lar to those suggested in the evidence and in this report."

which, we hope, will intimate to the garrotting world
generally that society is pleased to soo the cat jump in such
a direction.
