LONDON, FRIDAY, JULY 20, 1866.

The withdrawal of the Reform Bill by Mr.
GLADSTONE last evening was a natural conclusion
to the crisis of last month. The last act of the
drama has been played out in due form, Mr. GIAD-
STONE giving notice of withdrawal some days since,
so as to give the opportunity of interference on
behalf of any particular proposition to any member
who might wish to come forward. All parties,
however, appear to have had enough of Reform dis-
cussion for this session, and as every one is fully
aware that no practical steps can be taken this
year, there was a general feeling that it would be
useless and unprofitable to attempt to resuscitate
the bill or any part of it. Mr. GLADSTONE'S
language was fair and temperate. He said that
as for the future the question of amending the re-
presentation was in the hands of the Government,
and he for his part was not inclined to censure
them for refusing to pledge themselves on the mat-
ter, though he felt, as all must feel, that it is a ques-
tion which demands a settlement. Speaking for
himself and his colleagues, he profeseed their wil-
lingness to give a fair and unprejudiced recep-
tion to any measure which might be pro-
posed, and declared that they would be
glad to support any measure which they believed
to be prudent and effectual, without any regard to
what had passed. They wished, he said, to let
their future course be judged by their past, and
we have no doubt that he, for his part, will maintain
his character as one of the most consistent, as he is
one of the most brilliant, champions of Reform.
This great problem occupied a good deal of atten-
tion yesterday in several of its aspects. Mr. TAY-
LOR inquired of the Home Secretary whether the
notices issued by Sir RICHARD MAYNE, prohibiting
the proposed Reform
meeting
in Hyde-park, were
under his authority, a question to which Mr.
WAL-
POLE replied in the affirmative. The right hon. gen-
tleman's words on this subject were simple and to
the purpose, and as this is a matter on which it is
important there should be no
misunderstanding, it
is well that the people should be distinctly
informed
that it is not the fact of a public meeting
which is
objected to, but the place selected for it. English-
men of all ranks and classes commonly unite to
uphold public order if they do not, their opinions
on political questions are not much worth having,
because large and important questions are only to
be discussed by men with some -degree of self.
control and social obligations. Mr. BEALES,
in his indignant reply to Sir RICHARD
MAYNE'S intimation, refuses to admit that
any one has a right to interfere with the meeting.
But we think Mr. BEALES, on a little reflection,
will admit that the parks are not exactly open
ground. They are set aside, it is true,- for
the use of the people, but it is expressly

IVOTICE.—MEETING in HYDE-PARK.
-I-1 WHEREAS information has been received, and it is
publicly announced in various printed notices, that it is the
intention of certain persons to assemble in the open air at
several places in various parts of the Metropolis on the
Evening of Monday, July 23d, and to walk from thence
through the streets in procession with banners, and pre-
ceded by bands of music to Hyde-park, to hold a meeting
there for the purposes of political demonstration and dis-
cussion :

And whereas such a meeting—being inconsistent with
the purposes for which the Park is thrown open to and
used by the public —is illegal, and cannot be permitted, and
such an assemblage there- of large numbers of persons is
calculated to lead to riotous and disorderly conduct, and
to endanger the public peace:

And whereas it is necessary to prevent such proceedings,
and to preserve the public peace: NOTICE IS HEREBY
GIVEN, that NO SUCH MEETING or ASSEMBLAGE
of persons in large numbers will bo ALLOWED to take
place in HYDE-PARK, and all well-disposed persons are
hereby cautioned and requested to abstain from joining or
attending any such meeting or assemblage ; and notice is
further given, that all necessary measures will be adopted
to prevent any such meeting or assemblage, and effectually
to preserve the public peace, and to suppress any attempt
at the disturbance thereof.

black boys. Some of the brigade boys commenced pelting
him, and he took up a box and threw it with its contents
into the road. The box was broken and the blacking
wasted. The matter was reported to Mr. Chas. Hawkins,
Inspector of the East London Shoe Black Society, who
gave the prisoner into custody.
Mr. Paget was of opinion the prisoner had been impro-
perlylocked up all night, and that he ought not to have been
detained. The inspector ought to have ascertained the pri-
soner's address and summoned him. The prisoner was not
committing any offence, of which the police could take
cognisance, and was pelted with a variety of things by the
shoe black boys, and in a moment of irritation at such
treatment, threw one of the boxes into the road. The con-
duct of the inspector of the East London Shoeblack So-
ciety was most improper. Inspector Dandy, who was said
to have taken the charge at the Leman-street station-
house, was an old and experienced officer, and had always
done his duty in a veryadmirable manner. He would assume
that Mr. Drndy had don,, his duty properly, and had been
misled. He should like to see Inspector Dendy in the
course of the clay, and directed that he should be sent for.
He discharged the prisoner.

MARKETS.---This Day.

MARK-LANE.

Fresh up to-day the arrivals of wheat from Essex and
Kent were very moderate, but in fair condition. For both
red and white parcels the trade was decidedly quiet at
prices about equal to Monday.
There was a fair supply of foreign wheat on offer. The
transactions in all qualities were to a very moderate ex-
tent. In prices, however, no quotable change took place.
In floating cargoes of grain sales progressed slowly at
drooping prices.
Barley—the show of which was moderate—was in slug-
gish request at the late decline in the quotations.
Malt was in slow request at Monday's currency.
The supply of oats on sale was large. The trade was
dull at a decline of Gd to is per qr.
Beans and peas were very dull on easier terms.
Flour moved off slowly at barely late rates.

ELECTION IN TELLIGENCE.

CAMBuItE.

The re-election of Lord Royston, Comptroller of
her Majesty's Household, as member for Cambridge-
shire, took place yesterday morning at the County
Courts at Chesterton. The proceedings com-
menced at 10 o'clock, but as it. was known there
would be no opposition the attendance was com-
paratively meagre, the Crown Court being but
tolerably filled so far as numbers went. The High
Sheriff, the Hon Octavius Duncombe, presided.
After the usual formalities Mr. St. Quintin (Hatley
Park) proposed Viscount Royston ; Mr. Cropley
(Ely) seconded the nomination. There being no
other candidate proposed the High Sheriff declared
Viscount Royston duly elected amid the cheers of
his supporters,

possessed a larger capital it wo aviteen 9ques-
tion for further consideration andlonger experiment.
The tide had turned and th9effectsof good manage-
ment were already perceptible, but the capital re-
leased at Bombay would be useful in other Presi-
dencies, and the Bombay business could be resumed
hereafter if found desirable. The third subject re-
lated to the capital, and it would be seen that the
call had been limited to 55., and that until the money
market would enable the directors to issue the fur-
ther capital authorised they could and would con-

tinue their operations with the capital subscribed.
The company was established in the interest of the
railways, under the conviction of the value of Ibis
application of the recognised principle of the division
of labour. It had done much good already and would
be found invaluable when the railway companies'
arrangements were in perfect order and carrying
powers fully utilised. He thought allowances might
be made for the companies and the railway mana-
gers, who had great difficulties to contend with, but
when more time had been allowed to get everything
into order and to increase the rolling stock on the
railways there was no doubt that both railway and
carrying companies would find their best interests
in mutual and friendly co-operation. (Hear.)
Mr. J. WALKER seconded the motion for the
adoption of the report.
In reply to questions, it was stated that the total
gross receipts for the year ending June 30, 1865,
amounted to £178,388, and for the half-year ending
Dec. 31, 1865, to £97,281, being at the rate of
£194,562 per annum. The increase was mainly in
Madras, and to some extent in Bombay. The sum.
of £75,000 had already been paid on capital ac-
count, and £12,500 had just been called, which
would make £87,500 ; another call of ss. per share
would increase the amount to £lOO,OOO. The di-
rectors had authority to raise a further sum, in fresh
capital, of £50,000 when the money market would
permit, which would make £150,000 in all.
After a few observations from Mr. .....IurRRILEES,
Mr. PHILPOTT, and Mr. BUTLER, the report was
unanimously adopted, and a dividend at the rate of
6 per cent. per annum (frce of income-tax) for the
half-year ending the 31st of December, 1865, was
declared payable on and after the 2d of August.
Mr. J. WALKER explained that the additional
capital would enable the company to double the pre-
sent business, and a vote of thanks to the chairman
and directors concluded the proceedings.

The following verdict was returned :—" That the

The verdict was so recorded.

The Pall Mall Gazette says :—" We believe that
a very considerable proportion of the faults which
can justly be charged on our administration are due
to the system of party Government ; that is, to the
fact that Parliament insists on governing the coun-
try, instead of superintending and advising its Go-
vernment. Perhaps as good an illustration as any
that can be given of the difference between the two
things is supplied by the United States. They have
real Governments which last for four years certain.
Compare an American President with the Queen of
England. Had Lincoln, has Mr. Johnson no
political power ? Would either of them have
thought, in the midst of a great public
crisis, of leaving the whole American nation
to take care of itself in order to go to a coun-
try house four or five hundred miles from the
seat of Government? Again and again in the
course of the last six years we have seen the Ame-
rican Presidelitz take their own line in the most
energetic way in the teeth of the strongest possibleopposition, and do things which no English King
since the Revolution would ever have dreamed
eoamed of
daring to do. It must also be added that nmany
occasions events have shown that

-----
pounced a few
TIMES.—On Monday evening Mr. Gladstone pro-
amplify hereafter into a grand oration, but which
no feats of language can surpass in importance and
words, which, no doubt, he will
significance. In four lines of our report he an-
nounced that he would have to propose to-morrow
the withdrawal of the four Reform Bills which have
occupied the entire heart of a critical Session, cost
an untold amount of official labour, wrecked a strong
Government, stranded a popular party, and deprived
some forty gentlemen cf their important and lucra-
tive positions at the head of this great Empire. Had
Lord Russell made an auto da fe of all the obsolete
and useless ships in the Royal Navy the act would
hardly be more costly than the application of the
match to these Bills. Indeed it is scarcely possible
to exaggerate the sacrifice and its mortifying cir-
cumstances. For any parallel we have to imagine
immense ingenuity and labour lavished upon some
basis
dis-
covered to be impossible, as if Sir Isaac Newton had

There are tribes where is not enough to bury a chief,
but wives, concubines, slaves, horses, dogs, and
weapons of war are all thrown in after him. The
new Government has decided opinions upon Bank-
ruptcy Reform, and will see whether it elnry)t- make
a better bill than that before the House of Com-
mons, which accordingly will be allowed to retire
with all the honours of war as soon as it has re-
ceived the last touches from the hand of its author.
The Irish Landlord and Tenant Bill met a more
summary fate, and with only the slightest possible
hint of what might be done in a future Session. In
both cases it must be said that the new functionaries
buried the work of their predecessors with all possible
respect. After the discovery that the Imperial Par-
liament can have nothing to say to colonial bishops
except of a most negative character, the bill for
defining their position must wait for further light,
which a new Government will acquire, if possible,
before next Session. 'Then followed an obscure
crowd—small reforms that requiredthe kindest hand
and the most favourable circumstances, infant mea-
sures, baby bills. They are dropped and crushed in
the crowd. The hours are now counted, and what
time is there for the improvement of legal forms and
procedures, in the smallest and simplest matter, or
in any matter at all? Something remains to be
done, and it is to be hoped the two sides of Parlia-
ment will agree to pass the measures about which
there may happen to be no division of opinion.
There is no more room for mutual jealousy. There
will be no Harvest Home to celebrate the huge

AUSTRIA.
ORDER OF THE DAY TO ARMY OF THE

SOUTH.

VIENNA, July 14.
The Archduke Albert has issued the following
order of the day to the Army of the South :
" Soldiers of the Army of the South !—Our arms
have not been favoured in our first combats in the
North. The check, however, which they have ex-
perienced has not been able to shake the confidence
of our august Sovereign in our good right and our
strength, and the whole of Austria has likewise un-
shakably resolved upon the most determined conflict
until an honourable peace shall have been obtained
assuring the European position of Austria.
" By the Imperial resolution made known in the
manifesto of the 10th July a new task is assigned
to us, while the necessary forces remain behind to
guard the fortresses of the country, and protect, in
concert, with the faithful and brave population, the
strongholds of the Tyrol, of inner Austria, and the
coasts. I depart with the rest of the army for the
North, where the decisive blow will be struck.

" Comrades in Arms! I know that you quit with
pain the theatre of your last battle, but the hope of
fresh victories animates afresh your forces and your
courage. You are called upon to complete in the
North what you have so brilliantly commenced in
the South.

" Soldiers of the garrisons of the fortresses of
Venice, of the Tyrol, and of the coast ! I declare
you to be the inheritors of the victory of Custozza
and I leave you as the brave and faithful guardian
of the work which has been commenced. Whatever
may happen hold on with remarkable tenacity to
this glorious legacy and raise aloft the banner of
our dear Austria. Your task is as indispensable
in the South as ours in the North. All will have
part in the same honour, the same gratitude.

" Filled with calm confidence, I wish you in my
own name, and in the name of all those who are
leaving you, a cordial farewell ; but at the same
time I look forward to our meeting again.
" And you who go with me to the North, let us
show the world, in concert with our brothers in
arms already there, that the struggle of Austria is not
yet broken. Let us march to the decisive encounter
full of confidence in God and our strength, which
has already helped us to overcome victoriously the
greatest difficulties."
