The long and hardly-contested battle of the
Foreign Cattle Market Bill has at length come to a
conclusion, but the result will not be very satisfac-
tory to the majority of the House, or of the public.
The butchers and their advocates are the only
parties who have reason to be gratified by the with-
drawal of the measure, and their customers, during
the recess, will have no alternative but to pay prices
which they choose to charge. It is certainly dis-
appointing that so much time and trouble should
have been spent over a fruitless measure, and the
tactics by which it has been defeated do more credit
to the ingenuity of its opponents than to their love
of fair play or public spirit. The sense of the House
was indisputably in favour of the bill, and on every
division large 'majorities supported it, yet a small
though pertinacious bo ly of opponents have been
able, through a series of clever manceavres, to de-
feat the House aud the Government. The forms of
the llouse have been made to serve the purpose of
frustrating instead of forwarding business, and the
count-out on Thursday helped to get over an
evening, though as soon as the doors were opened
the floor of the House was crowded by members
anxious to push on the Cattle Bill. Ltst night the
same sort of policy was pursued, and Mr. AYRTON,
Mr. MILNER GIBSON, and a few others maintained
their parts, undaunted by the severe stric-
tares which were passed upon them. Mr.
AIRTON moved that the Chairman shoall report
progress, though in a house of 137 only 32 voted
with him, and he industriously went over the same
ground, over and over again, till his arguments
must have grown as tedious to himself as to his
hearers. At half-past two in the morning, after
half the night had beef spent in disputing inch by
inch Clause 25, Mr. Ayterox rose again to move
for reporting progress, and this time with success.
Mr. DISRAELI admitted he was just about to rise
for the same purpose, and very soon after the
Chancellor of the Exchequer announced that the
Government Lad given up the task in despair until
another session. Early in the evening matters had
come to a more exciting pass, and the plain speaking
on both sides called for the interference of the
Speaker. Mr. MILNER GIBSON was seized with a
sudden anxiety to preserve the privileges of inde-
pendent members. Mr. JACOB BRIGHT was seized
with a sullen sense of the impropriety of expecting

Mr. BRIGHT was present last evening at a dinner
at Birmingham, given to the members for the
borough. It was not a party affair, and Mr.
AVERY, the Mayor, disclaimed the_notion of such a
thing at the outset. Ile said he was surrounded Ly
gentlemen of every shade of party colour, from
" brilliant orange to invisible blue." As a Con-
servative, he spoke in very high terms of Mr.
BRIGHT, as a public man and a brilliant orator, "a
veritable hammer iu controversy, who, if sometimes
exalted by high passion, had never been known to
pervert his glorious gifts to any ignoble or un-
worthy purpose." Mr. BRIGHT said he found him-
self in a difficulty, and, indeed, so awkward was it
to make a long speech without the introduction of
politics, that it was tempting to take up a book he
had seen at a station in which it was professed to
give speeches for every imaginable occa-
sion. There is some truth in the remark
of the hon. member that politics need
not always be treated as they are, because ques-
tions are not admitted into social gatherings which
in themselves are not belonging to party if they
must come under the consideration of Parliament.
For instance, take that of Education, which has been
retarded because of the difficulties iutrodaced into
it, but now it may be discussed apart from such
hinclranc.:s. Referring to the more moderate
opinions that now prevail, Mr. BRIGHT alluded to
the pressure which witnessed the first agitation
about the Corn-laws ; the strongest opinions were
then circulated, but people now upoa such ex-
travagant exhibitions with zunitseinent merely.
Parliamentary R forum is another topic on which a
general and gradual change has tak.sn place, and
the hon. inc.ull2r fur Birmingham took some credit
to himself froal the fact that his views had been
advocated by those who were opposed to them. It
is true that he overlooked the fact that he had not
been a very wise prophet with respect to the coarse
they might adopt, but it is certainly true that a
good deal has come to pass which a few years ago
was not dreamed of by many well versed in public
matters, and this is surely a proof that it is unwise
to be so extreme upon any point which does not in-
volve a principle of right or wrong.
Mr. BRIGHT has heard from the leading men of
the party to whom lie had been most opposed that
there must now be a change in the distribution of
seats, and also that he found among these gentlemen
t; many just and fair-minded men, who believed
that, looking at elections, particularly with regard
to the great boroughs with very large constituencies,
it would be required, merely as a matter of election
machinery, to introduce in some form the vote by
ballot." The result of all these reminiscences was
that Mr. BRIGHT, without intruding opinions of his
own, sought to draw a lesson which might be of
use to po:itical parties iu the country. This was
that questions may constantly arise that affect the
interests of the United Kingdom, and people dis-
cuss them with heat and party feeling, yet in the end
they must be settled to the satisfaction of all the
community on a fair basis. In his new character
of apolitical philosopher Mr. BRIGHT appears to
alvantage, and may take his own advice to others
to heart himself. He concluded his speech by
some allusions to America, and declared that he
should be sorry to see some of our institutions
Americanized for many reasons. Ou the whole
this was a very temperate discourse, and contrasts
most favourably with some of his speeches in other
places. The true interests of the country are much
more likely to be served if people are temperate in
their individual acts, for in the excitement of con-
troversy and the discussion of prejudices very little
time or opportunity is given to the consideration
of other subjects.

The Americans are generally in extremes, and
their climate seems to share their character. We
have been grumbling at the heat in Lindon during
the last fortnight, but in New York they have more
cause to complain. We do not know the exact
degree of heat, and, indeed, judging by recent
scientific controversy, we should not perhaps be
able to appreciate it with accuracy if we were told
the degree of Fahrenheit, but if we are to estimate
it by the results, we must believe the temperature
of New York to have been something much worse
than any thing that Loudon has had to complain
of. Forty -deaths from sunstroke occurred at
New York on Tues lay week, the 14th, a return
sufficiently startling for one day. The situation of
the city of course accounts, to a measure, for exces-
sive heat ; but it is evident that either the people
have been unusually careless in exposing them-
selves, or the temperature has been something ex-
ceptional. Intense heat, we are told, has prevailed
throughout the country, so that it will be desirable
to exercise a little more caution in prosecuting
the great work of electioneering. We have
very little political news, though what little
we have augurs well. Congress has passed a,:
amended bill discontinuing the Freedmen's Bureau
after the Ist of next January, a motion that no one

E Iward Slmmar, a Dane, described as an able-
bodied seaman, was brought up before Sir Thomas
Henry, in custody of Beck, one of the summoning
officers of the Court, on an extradition warrant,
issued at the instance of the Danish Government,
on the charge of having committed the crime of
murder at Shanghai.
Mr. J. L. R. de Koeford, secretary to the Danish
Legation, attended to watch the case on behalf of
the Danish authorities.

Mr. Koeford put in the various documents in th e
case, including the depositions before the Danish
Consular Court at Shanghai, on which a verdict of
murder was found against the prisoner.
The officer Brett stated that on the 23d instant,
at about nine o'clock, he want on board her Ma-
jesty's ship Tamar at Plymouth, where he saw
the prisoner. He showed the prisoner the warrant
issued by Sir Thomas Henry, and read it to him.
He then asked the prisoner if his name was Edward
Sommer. He said it was. Witness asked if he
was the man who had been convicted at Shanghai ?
Re replied that it was. Witness then took him into
custody. The captain said that the prisoner's
conduct on board hal b.:..ea very good, an 1 that he
had always shown himself ready to persuade the
other prisoners to behave themselves.
Sir Thomas Henry asked the prisoner if he had
anything to say why he should not be sent to Den-
mark to be sentenced by the Criminal Court at Co-
penhagen. It appeared that, according to the
Danish law, the Court at Shanghai had no power
to pass sentence.

The Prisoner—Then I am going
home now ?
Why have I been kept so long ? It is nearly 16
tuonths since my trial.
Back explained that there had been no Danish
:Ilan-of-war sailing from Shanghai since the con-
viction. After some del ty he was sent away in an
English man-of-war, which arrived in Plymouth
Sound on Thursday, and it was now proposed to
end him to Copenhagen.
Sir Thomas Henry said the proceedings at the
trial at Shanghai were all before him. Tee charge
against him was that he had stabbed au English
sailor, who unfortunately died from the wound.
rhe jury convicted him, but foand that there
was extenuating circumstances, the prisoner hay-
ing fonnd the English sailor in bed with a woman,
whom he had known. Although the d c a,ed was
an Englishman, the prisoner, being a foreigner,
:euld not be tried _in England for an otTer.ce
,-..,omini..ted abroad.

Tue prisoner said he had no objection to be
ient to Copenhagen, but he denied stabbing the
man. lle was convicted ou the evidenc, of a
Chinaina.n, who would swear anyboly's life away.
The prisoner was cJaimittci to prison to await
the order of the Secretary of State for his surrender
to the Danish officers.

REMARKS.

Since last evening a slight diminution has taken place in
atmospherical pressure over the British Islands, whilst in the south of
France readings are somewhat higher. The least pressure is on the
west coast of France : at Itochefort the reading is half an inch below
that on our north-east coast. Tcmperature has slightly increased at
most stations in our islands. The wind yesterday was strong from
the east on our Channel coast, and this morning it continues to blow
with a force Bat Weymouth. In Scotland very light variable winds
aro rrevalent. The weather is generally fine.

The wife of the ill-fated Maximilian has relapsed into
deplorable condition. Up to the last month or two she
seemed in a fair way of recovering her wonted serenity,
and the re-establishment of her health was considered
not hopeless. But on the approach of the anni-
versary of Queretaro, symptoms of agitation were
obeerved, and a fresh attack of delirium followed.
The Empress is now a prey to the most extraordinary
e::citement, aggravated by the excessive heat and the want
cf sleep to which her Majesty is subject. As at Miramar,
she Las an invincible aversion to every description
of food, although she herself orders every morning
:what she would like to have at her meals. She refuses
to sit at the table, and will not taste anything unless
it is offered to her by Queen Mare-lienriette, her
sister-in-law, who takes a seat by her side and feeds her
like a child. At bedtime it often happens that the Queen
is obliged to use her personal influence to prevail upon the
Empress to retire to rest. In spite of her mental disorder
chc is able to appreciate the tender solicitude shown
towards her by the King and Queen of the Belgians. In
physical health the Empress continues well. Rest and
care to avoid all cause of emotion are considered by the
medical advisers to be the only just mode of treatment.
A telegraphic message denies the statement that the Duke
of Montpensier had renounced the titles and dignities which
he held as a prince of Spain. This, be it remembered, is a
telegram, and the wires of the Peninsula carry nothing
brit peace, tranquillity, and general satisfaction. The
Government of Madrid is equally desirous to persuade the
nation that it has proofs of intrigues carried on between the
Duke and the Duchess and General Prim. The country,
however, will not, according to all accounts, believe
this statement ; and though it is dignified on
the part of the Queen to calumniate her sister
and brother-in-law, it appears that it would be altogether
undignified to Produce the proofs of their guilt. The

trestion of the harsh treatment shown towards the
Duchess on her departure is somewhat unsettled. The
Spaniards, who appear greatly excited by the whole pro.
cedure, decide against the Queen in this respect also.

The Libertj is answerable for a curious statement. It
says, that to prove the confidence with which the Spanish
Government regarded the army, a number of improved
rifles (we are not informed whether they were breech.
loaders or not) has been recently distributed amongst the
troops. Only, as a measure of prudence, an important
item of the mechanism of each rifle was removed, so that
the soldiers found themselves in possession of an absolutely
useless firearm. If we are to believe the Liberty, the
Ministry has so little faith in the army, that it disarms the
troops by way of protection. If it thus protects itself
against the army, how shall it protect itself aga:nst the
people?

THE TVIMBLEDOX MEETING.

THE CAMP, FRIDAY.

This is almost an " off " day in camp. All the im-
portant events of the programme of the Wimbledon meet-
ing of 1868 have been decided, and it only remains for the
pleasant ceremony of the distribution of prizes by Lord
Napier, and the grand review by the Duke of Cambridge
to-morrow, to bring this great volunteer gathering to a
successful end. There is some shooting to-day, but it
is of very minor importance, and attracts little attention.
Not a bad joke has been perpetrated by the Victoxias
(the originators of the Earwig magazine) who have circu-
lated the following notice: "New prize. For policemen only
(specials inadmissible). Three shots at the running dog.
For muzzle-loaders. Any position. Bull's-eyes not allowed.
By order of the Council.—Ea.razig."
It is confidently expected that the Prince of Wales will he
down here to-morrow, and that the Civil Service volunteers
in camp will be accorded the honour of furnishing a guard
of honour 100 strong to his Royal Highness. This corps
gave a capital concert in their mess-tent last night.
Shooting in the second stage of the Duke of Cambridge's
Prize—a cup, value £5O, or the amount in specie—was
commenced at a quarter past nine, the competition being
restricted to the winners of prizes in the first stage ;
distance, 800 yards, The Peek Prize, value £52 10s.,
presented by Mr. Henry Peek, of Wimbledon House,
the shooting being confined to winners of " Enfield
Rifle" Prizes during the present meeting. The Dudley
Prize £5O Cup, or money, open to winners of "Any Rifle"
Prizes during the meeting, and "Any Rifle" Association
Cup, were also in competition. The Ladies' Prizes,
total aggregate value £5O, the Consolation Prizes,
aggregate value of £5O, restricted to 200 of those volun-
teers who, having competed, have not won a prize, and the
Earwig Prize of £2O, presented by the Victoria Rifles
in camp, were shot for during the day. At the
conclusion of the shooting for the Duke of Cambridge's
Prize, Private Farquharson (Perth) was decided the
winner, he making with a Henry rifle 22 points out of a
possible register of 28. •
