AMERICA.

SOUTHAMPTON, WEDNESDAY, 10 A.M.

The European and American Company's screw
stoam ship Queen of the South, Capt. Beale, arrived
this morning from New York, which she left on
the 27th ult., and her news has consequently been
anticipated by the Asia. She brings 160 passengers
for Southampton and Bremen, and a large cargo.
She proceeds direct to Bremen after landing pas-
sengers, &c., having no cargo for London.

FRANCE.
PARIS, TUESDAY.
The Paris correspondent of the Nord says :
" With regard to the Bank of France, I learn that
Count de Germiny has been definitively appointed,
and that his nomination will be officially announced
immediately. As to M. de Vuitry, who was spoken
of for the post, he becomes president of the section
of finance ; MM. Bavoux and Lang'ais, deputies,
will be nominated Councillors of State, as I have
before announced. M. Boinvilliers will very pro-
bably be named president of the section of the In-
terior in the room of M. Boulay (de la Meurthe),
who enters the Senate. Nothing has been decided
as to the successor of M. de Germiny at the Credit
Foncier."

The King of Bavaria took his departure yester-
day morning from Paris.
The Senate met yesterday, M. Troplong in the
()hair. The military code was again brought wider
discussion, and after observations from Marshal
Pelissier, General de Bourjolly, Count Segur-
el'Aguesseau' fiat president Delangle, first pre-
sident Barthe, the Marquis de la Rochejacquelein,
and Count de Beaum nt, the Senate declared by a
majority of 99 votes to 4, that it did not oppose
the promulgation of the measure. The senatus-
uonsultum concerning exchanges of property be-
ftween the State and private persons was adopted
unanimously by 97 votes. The bill for extending
the privilege of the Bank of France was brought
under examination, and the Senate declared by
103 votes to 1 that it did not oppose the promul-
gation of the measure.

PRUSSIA.

A letter from Berlin, of the 7th, says :—" The
King and Queen will leave on Monday for Tceplitz,
in Bohemia ; their Majesties will en route pass a
day at the court of Saxony. After remaining a
few days at Tceplitz, the King and Queen will pro-
ceed to Marienbad ; their Majesties will travel in-
cognito under the names of Count and Countess de
Zollern, and have declined in advance any kind of
official reception. Tha Prince of Prussia and the
Prince Frederick William, bis son, arrived here lasl
evening from Breilaw, and are to leave this even-
ing for Westphalia. The envoy extraordinary of
the Sublime Porte, Irani Bey, has, after a long
stay in this capital, left for Constantinople."

Mr. Murray, Minister of England to Persia,
quitted Bagdad on the 17th ult., with all the per-
sons attached to his Legation, on his way to Te-
heran. He was accompanied by Ali Khan, who
had been despatched by the Court of Persia for that
purpose.

The Piedmontese Chamber of Deputies, in its
sitting of the 6th, voted a bill for the construction
of new barracks at Alessandria, and another for
converting one of the suppressed convents in Turin
into a hospital.

The marriage of 1), ince Oscar of Sweden, born in
1829, second son of the reigning monarch, with
the Duko of Nassau's sister, born in 1836, took
place at the palace of Bibrich on the sth, at seven
in the evening.

We have mentioned that the Hanoverian govern-
ment has nominated a representative at the Court
of St. Petersburg. It may be remembered that
the Chambers which preceded the last Diet refused
the grant for the support of a diplomatist in Russia.
The present Diet will now be called on to vote the
necessary credit, but it is not expected that any
serious opposition will be made this time.

RUSSIA.

A let:er from Odessa of the 20th ult. in the

General of Bessarabia and New Russia an Impe-
rial order, authorising him to fix the end of tide

NAPLES.

" The conclusion of a concordat," says the Presse,
"between Naples and the Holy See is at present
certain. The text is not known, and many persons
believe that it is to remain secret. But four royal
ordonnances, doted from Caserta, and as many cir-
culars of M. Scorza, director of the department of
ecclesiastical affairs and of public instruction, have
ordered the arrangements decided on between the
two courts to be immediately carried into effect.
They may be summed up in a few words, being on
the one hand, with respect to the administraton of
ecc!esiasf cal property and of charitable institutions,
the complete substitution of the clergy and of the
jurisdiction of the Church f r the civil power ; and
on the ocher hand, the re-establishment in favour
of the clergy of certain privileges long abolished."

AQUATICS.

SCULLER'S RICE BETWEEN DEAL AND
WHITE FOR 501.
Another below-bridge match took place yesterday.
The c.)mpetiters were William Deal, jun., of Cherry.
garden-stairs, and Thomas White, of Mill-stairs, Ber-
mondsey. Deal was the winner of the Bermondsey
CJat rand Badge in 1851, and of the Bermondsey boat
in 1855. Thomas White rowed for the Coat and. Badge
in the Royal Thames National Regatta last year, and
also won the freedom at the Lambeth Regatta. Th•
distance in this race was from the East India Docks,
Blackwal, to the Wapping entrance of the Landon.
Docks; and the stake was 251. a-side. A very numer-
ous party co ltcted to wit❑ess the match. Thu men got
oil capita ly together. Deal then took a slight I,:ad,
which he maintained to the WAt India Docks. White
then came to him, and lifter rowing scull and scull tar
some dintanoe, began to leave him, and drew his boat Si,
length in advance ; in this position they continued row-
ing desperately till they got to the Commercial D:ick,
Rotherbithe, where White gradually left bis opponent,
and, increasing his lead, won by five or six lengths. The
winner was taken up by Thomas White, of East-lane,
and trained under his brother Henry, at Lambeth.

TURKEY.

A letter from Constantinople, in the Weser
Gazette, says :—" It is stated that the Porte has
the Mention of completely changing its system of
taxation, and to establish a property t tx. English
statistical men of eminence have bean applied for
by the Porte to assist in drawing up tables on
which this tax shall be c ►lculated."

We have received the Constantinople journals
and letters to the 28th ult., brought by the Eu-
phrate, but they add but little to the accounts al-
ready made known by telegraph. The conference
which was to take place on the 27th bAween the
representatives of the powers who signed the treaty
of Paris and the Turkish ministers relative to
the Principalities had been postponed to the 30th,
and it was expected that th 3 fullest explanations
would be demanded from the Porte on the subject
of the irregularities which were being carried in the
Danubian provinces. The Sulta❑ was preparing to
take a week's excursion in the Sea of Marmora. His
Majesty was first to proceed to Ismith, in the Gulf
of Nicomed'a, where he would be present at the
launch of a line of a battle ship. This cruise has
been recommended to the Sultan by his physician.
Several changes have taken place or were about to
be made among the governors of provinces.

THE CURRENCY QUESTION.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
Sir,—l have often noticed with great pleasure your
various articles on the currency. The frightful value
charged for discounts and advances is truly alarming.
Our great men are unable or unwilling to perform their
duty in this matter ; and to allow it to be slurred over
by the public carelessly, looks to me a great crime. The
trade progresses in spite of their incapacity, and we are
to do the increased business with gradually diminished
means of exchange or accommodation. Many private
bankers are retiring from one cause or other, and the
void is left ; so that the producer is required to do in•
creased labour with gradually lessened means of accom-
modation, at usurious rates of interest. The drones are
cared for to the injury of the working bees, and their
ultimate exhaustion is certain unless some effort is made.
It looks to me I;ke getting out of your man or horse
double work, with gradually decreasing food, or stinting
them of what was intended for their nourishment.
Mercator and the like forget what made them.
In Lancashire we had an old saying—Jones
r upon Jones, and Dicky Clough at hack would do,
at that time the circulation wqs over charged with 3
months bills, or acceptances—Jones Ll .yd of Manches-
ter, on Jones Lloyd of London (pig on bacon).
If I find this takes with you and yonr friends, I nipy
write you again, make what use of it you like, and shape
it as you like, if you publish it. lam out of trade, and
not a borrower, therefore, I have no interested motive.
I remain, yours, faithfully,
WM. DAVIES.
Ashfield, Rhoyader, June 8, 1857.

Among the passengers who left Southampton yester-
day by the Brazilian steamer Avon were seventeen Sis-
ters of Mercy, who are gone out td attend the yellow
fever hospital at Rio de Janeiro.

THE FIRE AT MESSRS. PICKFORUS

'We- learn that Messrs. Pickford and the London
end North-Western Railway Company are covered
by policies of insurance b the extent of 55,0001.
up-)n the building and their ctn'ents, consequently
the loss which would otherwise have been con,i,ler-
able will be very small.
Little or no interruption to the traffic has arisen;
the morning delivery of goods having be?n made
from the establishment of Messrs. Chaplin and
Horne, and from Haydon-square, within half an
hour of the usual time.

SIR W. F. WILLIAMS, BART., OF KARS.

We have reason to believe that Major-General
Sir William Fenwick Williams, K.C.B. (ihe hero
of Kars), is about to vacate his post as Command:int
at Woolwich, the gallant general having b..en
offered, and it is said accepted, the Govetnorship
and Command-in. Chief of Malta, in the ronn of
Major-General Sir William Reid, K.C.8., resignel.
It is currenly reported that Major-General J. E.
Dupuis, who greatly distinguished himself during
the Carlist war in Spain, and served during the re-
cent war in the East, wAh ditincCon at Alma, Ba-
laklava, and Inkernyin, and during the siege of
Sebastopol, will, in a'l probability, be Sir William's
successor. General Dupuis is decorated with the
third class of the Legion of Honour.

THE SEW DOVK AT MALTA.

MALTA, June 3.—On June 1, at 3 p.m., the foun-
dation-stone of our new dock was laid by Admiral
Lord Lyons, the heath of departments, the n•tval
and military in full uniform, and a numerous body
of spectators being present. The Admiral was re-
ceived by a guard of honour of Royal Marino, and.
the Vicinity was ga.ly garnished wirh flAgs, the
bands playing national airs. The Lord Bishop of
Gibraltar and his clergy performed the religious
portion of tha ceremony. Lord Lyons then took
the silver trowel, and, aftsr using made a short,
pithy, and • appropriate speech, w ich was r espon, led
to by loud cheers, arid a royal salute from her Ma-
jesty's sh'p Hibernia. A sumptuous repast was
provided on board that vessel by the Hon. Sir
Montague and Lady Stopford, in honour of tire oc-
casion, and was followed by a dance. . The :foun-
dation-stone of the first dock was laid with masonic
honours : it occurred some years ago, under the
superintendence of Sir Lucius Curtis, Bart. P. G. M.
for Haut3.

We bad a gay wedding on the 2d ; the favourite
prima donna Elena was married to Mr. Magenis,
of the 28th Regiment.
The last Russian prize remaining at Malta was
put up to auction, and bought in by the Acting
Marshal of the Admiralty Court for about 210/.
His instructions were not to let her go for less than
250!. She has been some two years in Malta, and,
while the courts have been hesitating about her
being a prize, she has so deteriorated as to become
almost worthless, and has cost much more than she
is worth. Things are very dull in Malta ; little
business doing ; scarcely any freight fur shipping.
One barque has been lying in the port over seven
weeks with a cargo of coals, for which no purchasers
can be found at 30e. per ton. The exchange is no w
a little below par, but the commissariat have up to
this relused to give any bills under par.
For very many years there has been a prohibi-
tion against exporting catt'e from the North Coat
of Africa, but this has scarcely ever been enforced
with regard to Malta, and formerly, whenever it
was attempted, a frigate used to be sent with a
demand for so many cattle for Malta, and it w.-us
always complied with. Lately we have become
much more polite, and aletter is sent soliciting that
cattle may be permitted to be sent for the garrison
of Malta. Very little attention is paid to such mi'd
applica,ions, and the prohibition is much more
strictly enforced. The French have cleverly talc, n
advantage of this, by having the cattle driven ov, r
the frontier and embarked for exportation at Bona,
where British ships have to pay ss. per ton ton-
nage dues, and 10s. per head export duty, all which
goes into French pockets instead of English. It is
hoped the English consul-general will succeed in
altering this.

NAPLES.

" The conclusion of a concordat," says the Presse,
"between Naples and the Holy See is at present
certain. The text is not known, and many persons
believe that it is to remain secret. But tour royal
ordonnances, dated from Caserta, and as many cir-
culars of M. Scorza, director of the department of
ecclesiastical affairs and of public instruction„ have
ordered the arrangements decided on betifeen the
two courts to be immediately carried into effect.
They may be summed up in a few words, being on
the one hand, with respect to the administration of
ecclesiastical property and of charitable institutions,
the complete substitution of the clergy and of the
jurisdiction of the Church fLr the civil power ' • and
on the other hand, the re-establishment in favour
of the clergy of certain privileges long abolished."
London, England, 1857-06-10

TURKEY.

A letter from Constantinople, in the Weser
Gazette, says :—" It is stated that the Porte has
the intention of completely changing its system of
taxation, and to establish a property tax. English
statistical men of eminence have been applied for
by the Porte to assist in drawing up tables on
which this tax shall be calculated.'

We have received the Constantinople journals
and letters to the 28th ult., brought by the Eu-
phrate, but they add but little to the accounts al-
ready made known by telegraph. The conference
which was to take place on the 27th between the
representatives of the powers who signed the treaty
of Paris and the Turkish ministers relative to
the Principalities had been postponed to the 30th,
and it was expected that th' fullest explanations
would be demanded from the Porte on the subject
of the irregularities which were being carried in the
Danubian provinces. The Sultan was preparing to
take a week's excursion in the sea of Marmora. His
Majesty was first to proceed to Ismith, in the Gulf
of Nicomedia, where he would be present at the
launch of a line of a battle ship. This crui.3e has
been recommended to the Sultan by his physicians.
Several changes have taken place or were about to
be made among the governors of provinces.

TEE PARLIAMENTARY OATIIS BILL.

In conformity with the announcement which ap-
peared in the Tablet and Weekly Register last week,
a deputation, comprising Catholic noblemen, mem-
bers of Parliament, and other influential 'gentle-
men, waited on Lord Palmerston on Monday at
his private residence, Cambridge-house, Piccadilly,
for the purpose of urging on his lordship the pro-
priety of including Catholics in the relief from the
objectionable passages in the oaths (now taken by
members of the Legislature. The deputation was
introduced by his Grace the Duke of Norfolk.
1 meeting was held subsequently at the Stafford-
street Club, Piccadilly—his Grace the Duke of
Noi folk in the chair—for the "purpose of adopting
such steps as might be deemed expedient in refer-
ence to the resul t of the interview with the Premier."

His Grace the Duke of NORFOLK, in opening the
proceedings, said that, as some gentlemen present
had not attended the deputation to Lord Palmer-
ston that day, he would state to them what bad
taken place. He had laid before his lordship the
objections which the Catholic body entertained to
being excluded from the operation of his lordship's
bill. In reply to his statement Lord Palmerston
said that be himself did not care to exclude Cath o.
lice, but that he thought including them in the bill
would have the effect of endangering its adoption.
He also considered that there was nothing iu the
oath at present required of Catholic members which
the strictest of that communion could not subscribe
to without any compromise of his religious princi-
ples. He (Lord Palmerston) was then a.ked
ther he would support the amendment, of which
notice had been given, and though be promised that
be would give it his consideration he would not
pledge himself, assigning as a reason that there
were Scotch members, Dissenters and others, who
might be opposed to it, and who, if it were pressed,
might be induced to vote against the measure.
The Hon. C. LANGDALE moved a resolution to
the effect that, Lord Palmerston's explanation be-
j ing unsatisfactory, an amendment should be pro-
posed in committee on the bill.
Mr. MOORE, M. P., said thtt an amendment wu
already on the books of the house, introduced by
au able member, Mr. Deasy, and be thought the hest
course would be to pledge themselves to support
that hon. member, or to introduce an amendment
embodying the views expressed by the noble chair-
man at the deputation that day. •
Lord CAMOYS objected to the meeting pledging
themselves to the resolution.
Mr. LANGDALE ultimately moved the following
That Lord Palmerston's explanation
tresolution.th e
deputation from this meeting not being c Jud-
dered satisfactory, the meeting recommends th it an
amendment in committee, generally embodying the
views'submitted to his lordship by .his ,Grace tie
Duke of Norfolk, be supported by the Catholic)
members."—Agreed to.
The meeting shortly afterwards terminated.

PARLIAMENTARY COMMITTEE.

HUDSON'S BAY COMPANY.

This committee re-assembled yesterday Mr.
Labouehere in the chair.
The first witness called was

Mr. Roche who, in reply to questions by the
chairman, said be had been residing in Canada for
the last 16 years. He held an official situation thore
as fourth clerk in the Provincial Secretary's Depart-
ment of the Canadian Government, and had re-
ceived written instructions to plac'i himself in com-
munication with this committee. He had been in
correspondence with persons connected with the
fur trade, and he had drawn up some memoranda
on the subject.
Mr. Ellice suggested that the evidence in chief
should be given viva voce.
Mr. Roche, in reply to the Chairman, said he
had never been in the Hudson's Bay Company's
territory. But he was able to state generally what
were the mineral riches of the territory. There
were valuable copper mines and malachite, &c.
By Mr. Christie—The feeling of the people of
Canada was adverse to the Hudson's Bay Company,
and they thought that they had no right to hold
exclusive posses ion over such an extensive district.
By Lord Stanley The Canadians generally
thought that territory ought to .be annexed b
Canada.
By the Chairman—He believed it was not ex-
actly the feeling of the Canadians that Vancouver's
Island should be attached to Canada, but they
should like to see it thrown open as a colony and
settlement.
By Mr. Grogan—He thought the feelings of the
Canadian people in respect to the territory were
the same as those of the old French Canadians on
that subject. The Canadians would prefer trying
the old prairies for settling to the uplands on the
Ottawa. . _

By Mr. Christie—He believed the Canadians
would like to see the Hudson's Bay Company
abolished altogether.
By the Chairman—When there was competition
in the fur trade, there was confusion and disorder
and the introduction of spirits ; but spirits were
introduced now. With regard to the relations
between the Indian and whites in the American
territory, he was aware there had been a good deal
of bloodshed ; that was chiefly confined to Oregon.
By Mr. Grogan—ln point of fact the Indians in
Canada were increasing in numbers, intelligence,
and wealth, and were settling down as agriculturists
—they had communication with the w►iites.
By Mr. Ellice—There was no fur trade carried
lon by those whites and Indians in Canada. He

ROYAL SURREY GARDENS.

This is a week of festivals. The great Handel demon-
stration at the Crystal Palace, in the afternoon, has
car cal y terminated when the hour approaches for another
musical entertainment of a different kind, though of high
pretensions, on the same side of the water, and much
nearer at hand.

The ten days' festival, instituted by X Jullien, at the
Surrey Gardens, which began on Friday with a very fine
performance of Haydn a "Creation"—the success of which
was recorded at the time—has gone on prospering. A
"Beethoven night" on Saturday, including, among other
'things, the symphonies in A. major and C minor, entire,
and the pianoforte concerto in C minor (executed by Miss
A.rabella Goddard), was equally lucky; and on Monday a
third performance of Mendelssohn's "Elijah" brought one
~f the largest audiences that have assembled in the Music
Hall since the commencement of the present season.
Last night the chief part of the programme was devoted
to Mozart, from whose vocal and instrumental works a
splendid programme was constructed. The hall was crowded
in every part, and by an audience both anxious and able to
i.ppreciate. There was a selection from "II Flauto Dia-
gico," and a selection from " Don Giovanni," besides other
things of great interest. Madame Gassier, Mademoiselle
Westerstrand. Madame Rudersdorff, Mademoiselle M.
Rudersdorff, Herr Reichardt, M. Gassier, and Mr. Weiss,
sustained the principal solo parts. This performance was
equally successful.
The second part of the concert was "miscellaneous."
The Mozart selection, in consequence of its immense at-
traction, is to be repeated on Thursday night, with the
same programme. This evening the first part of the con-
lea is dedicated to Mendelssohn, and in the course of the
festival Haydn's " Seasons" and Handel's " Messiah" will
be presented.
