LATEST NEWS.

MAYENCE, THURSDAY.

The Ganthou powder-mills have exploded, de-
stroying almost all the upper part of the city,
together with the church of St. Stephen. More
than 100 persons are killed. The shock extended
to Wiesbaden.

The examination of the scene of the explosion
has resulted in the estimate of the damage at a

million of florins.

We learn that nine Prussian soldiers, two Aus-
trian, and 18 civil employes are killed ; 74 Prus-
sian soldiers, 95 Austrian, and 300 other persons
are grievously wounded.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Nov. 11.

The Exchanges continue to rise.
The Napoleon of 20 france is worth 123 piss-

trey.

The high price of provisions is unexampled.
Notwitbstinding the prohibition, the illicit
trade in gunpowder is active.
Letters also confirm the extraordinary pur-
chases of arms, and especially of revolvers, by the
people of Turkey.
The Mussulmans themselves are very much
alarmed about the future of the Empire.

TURIN, Nor. 18.

Numerous second elections in cases, where the
former proved doubtful, took place to day. Among
the nominations already known, more than two-
thirds belong to the government.
The great number of these second elections is
attributed to the fact that the clerical party was
perfectly organised and disciplined, tvhile the libe-
rals were not.

It is expected that there will be in the cham-
bers a rather strong minority returned by the
clerical party, while there will be but a very small
fraction of that of the extreme left."

SAXONY.

The opening of the session of the Saxon Diet
took place at the palace of Dresden on the 16th
with the usual ceremonial. His Majesty delivered
the following speech on the occasion :
" Gentlemen,—It is with a lively feeling of gra-
titude to Providence that we glance at the events
which are at present taking place. War, which
lately exercised its ravages in one part of Europe,
and which threatened to draw us into its whirl-
pool, was happily terminated by the spirit of
wisdom and moderation of the parties interested.
But the Germanic Confederation hag not in any
way had to regret the position which it adopted as
the most suitable under such serious circum-
stances.

" The relations of Saxony with all foreign power:,
always of the most friendly kind, have been
strengthened. The proposition relative to the consti-
tutional relations of the Duchies of Holstein and
Lauenbourg, which Austria and Prussia have pre-
sented to the general a,sembly of the Diet, has re-
sponded to the wishes several times expressed by
my government.

"The conclusion of a monetary convention between
the states of the Zollverein, on the one hand, and
Aus'ria and the principality of Lichtenstein, on the
other, and the deliberations relative to the p.omul-
gation of a commercial legislation common to all the
Germanic Confederation are new facts, calculated
to produce a more intimate union of all the statta
of Germany on the point of material interests.
" The re-establishment of peace and the abund-
ance of the harvest which Heaven has accorded to us
have contributed to alleviate the privations cf the
people. Commerce and manufactures hare acquired
a fresh impulse, and we may hope that their pros-
perity will only be slightly affected by the financial
crisis which Ir-is lately broken out. Agricultuto
has never ceased to make progress.
" The finances of the kingdom are in the m-st
prosperous condition, as you will be able to judge
from the reports which will be laid before you.
Such a prosperous state of things allows me to
propose to you, while at the same time materially
alleviating the charges which weigh on the tax-
payers, to increase the s3laries of the lowe=t paid
employes of the state, and to present to your exami-
mination several projecs of admitted public utility.
The new judicial organisation, adopted in the
extraordinary Diet of 1854, came into execution on
the Ist Oct., 1856. With the exception of some
imperfections, happily but temporary, which are
ins:iparable from any new just tutiou, this re ginisa
tion appears to respond to the inten6uns wlt. ch
inspired it, and to assure to the new p:oceediugs in
criminal matters conditions of celerity and security.

THE CONSPIRACY IN CATALONIA.

A letter of the 14th from Madrid gives some fur-
ther details of the conspiracy just discovered in
Catalonia. It says :
" The aide-de-camp of General Papatero, Captain-
General . of
Ht Province,haebringe
important is
oehveesrfyo
amcohnsmeg the
t ne
confession of one of the ctaiefe of the Carle-Republican
conspiracy, and who, as I mentioned in my last letter,
was on the point of being shot. NVith a view to save his
life he promised to make a full discovery. The Govern-
ment is not yet aware of the nature and gravity of these
disclosures. Until we know the particulat, brought by
the aide-de-camp, I give you a, few particulate, which I
have reason to believe are exact. The conspiracy in
Catalonia is of old date, especially on the part of the
Chrlists, but for some time past the fools who call them-
selves Republicans have been cc-operating with the

been always regarded as the act,re protector of the
AbsolutiAs. The Carlists are well organised in the pro-
vince, and the congregation of San Isidro is thought to
be nothing more than an IISS( a ation formed with the
view of propagating extreme doctrines. A branch as-
sociation was lately attempfed to be established in
Nalencia. Tee province of Castellon Lower Arragon,
Morelia, and the Maestrasgo are organised. This had
been known for some time ; but all at once the telegraph
announced the evening before last a pl t a as dif never( a
at Barcelona, and that a person named Monserrat, cne
of the chief, of the association, was arrested, tried by
cour:-tuartial, and sentenced to be shot, when he tries
to sbve his life by giving valuable information. What-
()ler these disclosures be you may be certain that the
Government will not go to the source—for the source is
to be found in the Absolutist intrigues of the King's
°Amarilla. The hostility of this band of conspiratore
aeainst the Queen-Mother causes her to be regarded with
a'eertain degree of favour by some of the Liberal party.
She idiom, but lit le inclination to return to Spam, and
I think she does right in not expoi-ing herself to be
charged with thegrasporisibility of al! that is done here. I
I repeat, she has no desire to return, though circum-
stances nay foxes her to dso Wore I)ng."

Men, of the Time.
_.bent and Co.

This is a new edition of this useful and compen-
dious work, which contains nearly 900 pages of
close print. Even now, however, it cannot be
called quite complete, and it seems to have missed
some names and to have given lesser ones in undue
prominence. It is, however, a very arduous task
to compile such a volume ; and as new editions are
promised from time to time, and the publisher
declares himself ready to avail himself of any cor-
rections or information that may be accorded him,
there is every reason to anticipate a still greater
improvement. It is most extended iu its plan, and
takes i❑ every class that can claim any degree of
distinction. Such a work is constantly wanted,
and the demand for it wdl no doubt keep pace
with its increasing volume.

-BOROUGH HOF.

Very fine hops are in moderate request, and prices are
supported. Low and middling qualities rule heavy, at
barely previous rates. The show of samples has rather
increased.

New Mid and East Kent pockets, 70s to 120 s ; Weald of
Kent ditto, 58s to 82s; Sussex ditto, s!s to 72s per cwt.

COLONIAL.

TEA.—The market remains very inactive, and prices are
quite nominal. Common Congou 12id to 13d per lb.
S, GAlL—There has been very little busines transacted,
the trAde having bought sparingly, and prices have again
receded about Is 6,1 to 2s par cwt. The Refined Market is
flat, but goods being scarce prices remain steady.
COFFEE.—For Plantation Ceylon there is very little in-
quiry, and prices are about is to Is Gd per cwt. lower.
RlCE.—Very little business has been done, previous
quotations are, however, barely supported.
num.—The market continues ye* dull, fair Demerara
sold for 2s 3d per proof gallon.
FRUlT.—There has been a rather good demand for home
consumption, and previous rates have, in most instances,
been maintained. Valencia raisins realise 59s to 6,s per
cwt.

..
SALTPETRE.—No dealings have been reported, and
prices are steady. British refined quoted 48s to 48s 6d
per cwt.
TALLOW.—The market is very quiet. P.Y.C., on the
spot, is quoted 48s, and for all the year and for spring de-
livery, 49s per cwt.
GREEN FRUIT. —There is more enquiry, and arrivals
being limited from contrary winds, the stocks of all kinds
are light. A parcel of oranges per Teviot, steamer, from
Madeira, sold by Keeling and Hunt at public sale, went
at prices proportionate to condition and quality. Lemons
are scarce, some parcels have been received from out ports,
and brought high prices. No alteration in Spanish nuts.
Para higher. The exportation of chesnuts from France
being permitted, has reduced the price of Spanish ss.

THE WOLVERHAMPTON AND STAFFORDSHIRE BANKING
COMPANY.—BIRMINGHAM, Nov. 19.—There is every

be speedily resumed. Confidence amongst the trades-
men of the town appears to be in the main restored.
Bank of England assistance has been promised, and
generally appearances are extremely favourable. The
failures in the iron trade continue to increase. In
addition to Messrs. Ryley and C 0.., those of Rose, Hig-
gins, and Co., and Messrs. Motte ram, are declared, and
others are anticipated.

CHINA.

Positive intelligence has reached Paris to tLe
effect that the Emperor of China has made known
through Lis officials at the ports a decision not to
treat with the agents of any European Powers,
either pf.litical or religious. It is believed England
and France will find it necessary to employ large
naval and military forces, in order to bring about
their views regarding the Celestial Empire.
The Moniteur de la Ilotte publishes a letter re-
ceived from China by the last mail, which contains
some particulars relative to the mission of the Rus-
sian Admiral, Count Putiatin, to that country. The
Count reached the Russian settlements on the
Amour in 70 days. He embarked on board of the
Russian steamer America, and visited the Gulf of
Petchelli previous to his arrival at Shanghai. It was
reported that he was accompanied by 4 other ships
of war, but that fact is very doubtful. It is known
that at Peiho he forwarded a message to Pekin, and
it is thought that when he quitted Shanghai with-
out mentioning his destination it was to seek the
reply to that message. Admiral Putiatin's secre-
tary, is, it appears, aperson whohasresided. 12 years
at Pekin as chief of the College of Interpreters.
The Russian Plenipotentiary announced at Shang
hai that he came to act in concert with the
British and French Ambassadors, and that he en-
tertained no doubt of their being received at
Pekin ; but ho was of opinion that the Emperor
would not allow of any permanent legations in Lis
capital. A letter from Singapore of the Ist October
mentions that the French frigate Audscieuse bad
made the passage from the Cape in 51 days ; and
the commander was to leave on the 2d Oct. to join
Admiral Rigault de Genouilly, who was at anchor
in Castle-Peak Bay. The French corvette Capri-
cieuse, and the screw-transport Durance, were '
anchored at the mouth of the Yang-tse Kiang on
Sept. 14. They had fortunately escaped a typhoon,
which caused much damage among the ship-
ping at Shanghai. Typhoons had set in
with much violence in the north of China
but none had boen experienced in the south.
The French Admiral, the Moniteur adds, bad sta-
tioned his ships so as to be safe from their effects.
In addition to the foregoing the Pays says :
"Ws have interesting intelligence from China. At
the last dates the mixed transport the Meurthe, the
steam despatch boat the Marceau,and the first-class gun
boat the Dragonne were anchored in the roads at Hong-
kong. The admiral's frigate the Nemesis, the steam
corvettes Pblegethon and Primauguet, and the first-claa
gunboats the Avalanche, Fusee, and Mitraille were at
Tnengkoo, and the despatch boat Catinat had returned
from Tonkin, where it was said she succeeded in her
mission, and had anchored at Macao on the 19th. The
typhoons and the hurricanes which raged with fearful
violence the whole month of September, bad completely
destroyed Nao-Pack, a small town on the east coast."

MARKET NE W 6. (Tais Day.)

CORN EXCHANGE.

The supply of English wheat received fresh up to-day
was limited, but there were several of Monday's unsold
samples on offer. For all kinds we experienced a heavy
demand, and the rate declined in the quotations was with
difficulty supported. In some instances prices were nomi-
nal.

The imports of foreign wheat are 10,130 quarters. All
descriptions were dull in the extreme, and to have forced
sales, lower rates must have been submitted to. In float-
ing cargoes nothing was doing.
The show of English and foreign barley was extensive,
and the trade ruled heavy, at barely stationary prices.
Malt was dull, and the turn in favour of buyer,.
Oats sold slowly, at Monday's decline. Beans, peas,
and flour were dull in sale.

The show of beasts in to-day's kiarket was only mode-

Monday's improvement in value. Although the supply of
sheep was rather limited, the mutton trade ruled heavy,
at a decline in the quotations of 2d per Blbs. There was
less activity in the veal trade, and prices gave way 2d per

LATEST NEWS.

MAYENCE, THURSDAY.

The Ganthou powder-mills have exploded, de-
steoying almost all the upper part of the city,
together with the church of St. Stephen. More
than 100 persons are killed. The shock extended
to Wiesbaden.

The examination of the scene of the explosion
has resulted in the estimate of the damage at a
million of florins.

We learn that nine Prussian soldiers, two Aus-
trian, and 18 civil employes are killed ; 'l4 Prus-
sian soldiers, 95 Austrian, and 300 other persons
are grievously wounded.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Nov. 11.

The Exchanges continue to rise.
The Napoleon of 20 france is worth 123 piss-

tres.
The high price of provisions is unexampled.
Notwithstanding the prohibition, the illicit
trade in gunpowder is active.
Letters als) confirm the extraordinary pur-
•hases of arms, and especially of revolvers, by the
peopls of Turkey.
The Mussulmans themselves are very much
alarmed about the future of the Empire.

TURIN, Nov. 38.

Numerous second elections in cases, where the
former proved doubtful, took place to• day. Among
the nominations already known, more than two-
thirds belong to the government.
The great number of these second elections is
attributed to the fact that the clerical party was
perfectly organised and disciplined, while the libe-
rals were not.

It is expected that there will be in the cham-
bers a rather strong minority returned by the
clerical party, while there will be but a very small
fraction of that of the extreme left."

COPENHAGEN, Nov. 18.

The Government sent off on Saturday to its
agents at foreign courts a long despatch on the
financial relations between Holstein and the
Danish monarchy.
