Court of Common Council.

Yesterday a meeting of the Common Council was
held at Guildhall.
PRINCE ALFRED AND THE CORPORATION.

The LORD MAYOR, who occupied the chair, said
he had the honour to inform the court that since
their last meeting he had the pleasure of an inter-
view with Prince Alfred, at which he stated to his
royal highness that the court was prepared to con-
fer upon him the freedom of the city, to which he
was entitled by patrimony ; that the Prince had re-
ceived him in the most graceful and courteous man-
ner, and had been pleased to fix the 7th of June, at
one o'clock, for the ceremony.
This announcement was hailed with cheers, and

Mr. SAUNDERS, chairman of the city lands com-
mittee, moved that it be referred to them to put
themselves in communication with the Lord Mayor
with the view to make arrangements for the suitable
reception of his royal highness.
Mr. Deputy CHAPLIN inquired what the probable
expense incident to the ceremony might be.
The Chairman of the city lands committee replied
that they would not spend more than was necessary
but they would take care at such a time to uphold,
the honour and prestige of the corporation on the
occasion.

A discussion ensued upon the motion, but it was
conducted with closed doors.

The motion was eventually carried, and it was
left to the City lauds committee to make the neces-
sary arrangements.

A communication from Nantes says :--(c The
cholera, which a few days since was at Guerande
and its neighbourhood,,bas re-appeared in this port,
and several persons have fallen victims to it. A
small number of sick have died in the hospitals,
principally women, whom the abuse of drink had
predisposed to the fatal influence of this terrible
malady. One workman in the Rue de la Bastille
also succumbed in a few hours."

The large American ship Shakspeare, which as
may be remembered brought to Havre the largest
cargo of cotton that had ever arrived at that port,
has left for New Yak with 671 passengers.

TERRIBLE ACCIDENT IN DUNDEE.—On Wednes-
day night a large building, , three stories high, situated in
Barracks-street, Dundee, fell to the ground. Three per-
sons engaged in work in the upper flat, which was chiefly
of wood, were buried in the ruins. When dug out it was
was found that one was dead and the other two seriously
injured. Their names were George Nicoll, an old man,
dead ; Elizabeth Proctor, who had her, leg broken, and
suffering from other severe injuries; and Jane Proctor
who was severely injured. Excavation in sand soil for
new buildings was supposed to be the cause of the dread-
ful accident. The excitement in Dundee is immense.—

BOURSE, July 11.—Two o'clock.—The tone of
the market at the opening to-day was somewhat
better ; but as soon as the extensive claims of Prus-
sia, exacted as the only conditions under which she
will accept the armistice, were known, a general
re-action set in. The prospects of a discontinuance
of the war by Austria on the unsatisfactory terms
set forth in the Prussian reply being therefore al-
most entirely annihilated heavy sales have taken
place,
and the:retrograde movement in quotations
has consequently been rapid and general. Three

DISPOSING OF A DEAD CHILD.—The following
facts wore proved at an inquest held on Tuesday evening,
in the St. Martin's Vestry-room. On Wednesday last a
little girl named Jemima Cheeseman, 14 years old, having
charge of a baby, was seated in St. James's-park, when a
woman respectably dressed, entering into conversation
with her, asked the girl to take care for a few minutes of
a black bag that she had in her band. The woman then
left, but never returned. After waiting a long time the
girl took the bag home to her aunt, who called in a police-
man, and he opened it. In it was found the body of a
child wrapped in a piece of calico, apparently some portion
of a chemise. The girl Ckeeseman described the woman
as wearing a brown mohair dress, black silk jacket, white
straw bonnet, with black strings and veil, and black kid
gloves. The jury found an open verdict, and the police
are endeavouring to discover the woman, whom the girl
declares she can identify.

THAMES.

MELANCHOLY EVENT.—William Stiffell, a carman in the
service of Mr. William Stephens, a respectable and exten-
sive dust contractor in Shadwell and Wapping, was
brought before Mr. Partridge, charged with causing the
death of a child named Rebecca Hornibrook, aged six
years.

The prisoner was coming out of his master's dustyard
this morning with a horse and cart for the purpose of
making his dust collections, when the deceased got in the
way of the horse, was knocked down and run over. Sho
was killed. The prisoner was driving in a careful manner,
and it did not appear there was any blame to be attached to
the prisoner.
Mr. Partridge believed the coroner's jury would return
a verdict of accidental death. He liberated the prisoner on
his own recognizanccs to appear on Saturday next.
EMBEZZLEMENT.— Frederick Schummecher, a German
baker, was brought before Mr. Partridge, charged with
feloniously appropriating to his own use various sums of
money he had received for and on account of Christian
Hisir, his master, of John-street, Limehouse.
The prisoner had been in the service of Mr. Hisir for
six weeks, when he left without previous warning. It was
afterwards discovered by his master that he had been re-
ceiving money of his master's customers to whom he had
delivered bread, and that ho had not accounted for the
same. There were a great many cases against him ; the
magistrate selected three—the prisoner received 102. from
one customer, 3s. sd. from a second, and 2s. 7d. from a third.
He was committed for trial on the three charges.

MARKETS.—This Day.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE.

There was about an average supply of beasts on sale
here to-day. All prime breeds moved off steadily, at full
prices ; otherwise the trade was in a sluggish state, at
barely late rates. A few very superior beasts realised 6s
per 81bs. Sheep, the show of which was moderate, moved
off slowly ; nevertheless, very little change took place in
the quotations. The best Downs and half-breds produced
fully 6s per 81bs. Lambs were in moderate supply and
fair request, on former terms—viz., from 6s 8d to 8s per
Blbs. Calves were very inactive, at barely stationary
prices. In pigs very little was doing, at last week's
currency.

Alhambra Palace.

The great attraction at the present time in the
metropolis is the performance of " El Nino Eddie,"
a wonderful boy, at the Alhambra Palace, Al-
though but 11 years old, he performs all the feats
which won for M. Blondin a world-wide reputation.
That a child of such tender years should possess
such wonderful nerve and self-reliance is remark-
able ; but he seems to be quite enamoured of his
perilous pathway as he trips titer the obstructive
me with cat-like dexterity: The happy smile
which radiates the countenance of the little fellow
whilSt 'gbh* through his astonishing performance
bears a remarkable contrast to the fear depicted in
the upturned faces of the audience ; he never evinces
the slightest feari nBt e eri iinclei; the diflictilt direihnr
stahees of having a sack placed upon his head, or with
hisfeet enclosed in baskets. El Nino Eddie is the son
of Mr. Richard Rivers, and was born in New York
in 1855 ; he is, consequently, in the tenth year of
his age. He made his first appearance as a pro-
fessional rope-dancer in Havana, in 1863, with
Chiarini's Circus, where he created the most extra-
ordinary furore, and received the appellation of
" El Nino," by performing all the perilous, daring
feats of Blondin and Leon Javelli. As a tight-
rope dancer he equals the greatest and excels the
majority of the most renowned artistes that have
been seen in this or any other country, exhibiting
the same grace that Herr Cline did in his youthful
days ; in fact, this wonderful boy is brimful of
talent, and exhibits a marked genius for every de-
partment of his profession. El Nino Eddie's en-
gagement is a brief one ; we, therefore, advise a
visit to the Alhambra, although the temperature in
London is almost equal to au Indian summer,
