LOSS OF TBE STEAMER EMPEROR.

The following
is taken from the Moniteur of
yes' erday :
" A telegraphic despatch says the Journal du
Havre of the 9th iust., addressed' to the British
Consul residing at that port, and confirming by an-
ticipation a letter from Fecamp, that has arrived
since, aunounce3 that this steamer, bound from
Newca4tle for Rouen, with a lading of coal, went
on shore on Thursday evening, at about 9 o'clock,
below the Grainvel reefs. Eight or nine persons,
one of them a woman, who tried to save themselves
without waiting for help from the land, fell victims
to their too great baste. The remainder of the
crew and passengers,
together with the captain, 13
or 14 persons in all, were saved by means of a rope
with a sliding seat. Among the saved, themwas,
it is sail, a young man of Rotten.
"Respecting the state of the steamer, the letter
from Fecamp, dated Friday evening, expressed a
fear of the ship's being broken up if the wind con-
tinued to blow with the same violence, but the de-
spatch forwarded this morning encourages the hope
of her being got off."

" Read fifty volumes of' travel, and a thousand imitations of the

book. . . . All is simp,e and real, a photograph of sold India."

Its author."—Saturday Review.
" As an autobiography, the book is' very curious ; it bears the

"This veritable autobiography reads like a mixture of the Life
and Adventures of Gil Blas with those of the Threw Calendars.
Every one who is interested in tne present state of matters in India
should read Lutfullah's own account of himself and .his 'people; as
well as their peculiar and general feeling towards the reringees."—

THE NIGHTINGALE FUND.—In reply to a letter in-1

for the purpose of t renting- a memorial of the services of
Miss Nightingale," Mr. S. C. hall Rays that the money
collected—amounting to 41,8511. 7s. 41. (since aug-
mented by other subscrip tnans)— was oo ths 20th of June
paid into the hands of five trustees, appointed by Miss
Nightingale to receive it. They invested the sum in
government securities, bearing intt rest. Unhappily the
state of Miss N.'s health does not, as yep, enable her
to apply that fund to the purpose for which it was raised
—and for which purpose alone she consented to receive
it—" to establish an institution for the training, suste-
nance, and protection of nurses and hospital attendants.
A report, accompanied by a balance sheet of receipts
and txpenlitare, has been published by direction of the

pulled out the brace of pistols produced, the property of
his master. 00 taxing him with the theft the prisoner
~aid he was not going to steal them, he was only going

The prisoner now pleaded guilty, and was committed
to the House of Correction for three mouths.

Company for such water shall be, the price charged to the
cultivators, and shall be fixed so as to repres-nt a fair
charge for the water to the parties using it. With refe-
rence to this stipulation, it has been a,;knowledged by the
Government that they alone are liable in respect to the
non-payment for water supplied, so that the C nnpany are
released from all fear of liability to loss of any portion of
their water-rate. The value of the foregoing-arrangement
can hardly be too highly prized, forming as it does a cer-
tain and safe guarantee of payment for every portion of
the water sistriked for irrigation.
It ha., been determined by the Directors to limit, at any
rate for the preamt, the expenditure to about £130,1100
per annum, whereby they will be e,,abled t-) make all fu-
ture calls small in amount and at regular stated periods,
not exceeding on the whole ..£2 par share during each
year ; at the same time they are enabled by the Act of In-
corporation to issue the required capital-partly in shares
of £lO each, and partly in stock divisible into sums vary-
ing from .£l.O upwards - a plan which will 'suit tlur con-
venience of those who desire to limit their liability to
a fixed SUM at once, and to be relieved from future
calls, a-ul also those who may prefer to pay the amount
of capital held by them by easy instalments in the shap3
of calls.

Applications for Shares and Stock may now he made at
the Company's Offices, 8 and 9, Queen-stroet-place, South-
wark-bridge, London, E.C. (where a full Prospectus and
Forms of Application may be had); but it is necessary
that it should be understo,d that no applicatio❑ will be
considered unl,ss a deposit of £1 on each share, or of ten
pounds per cent. upon the amount of stock applied for,
has been made either to the Bankers of the Company,
Messrs. Ransom, Bouverie, and Co., No. 1, Pall Mall East,
or at the Offices of the Company. The Deposit will be
returned without deduction if the application is not ac-
ceded to.

pleasant,

Neving coughs, soldz, confirmed cases of asthma, and inci-
pient consumption. It frequently cures persons whom the
faculty pronounce incurable, and admirably allays the
ticking which provokes frequent coughing. In approach-
ing consumption its effects are truly beneficial. Persons

tion, may depend on relief in a few minutes after taking it.

druggists, in bottles, 130., and three• quantities in one,

matic Balsam.' The name and address are engraved on the

VIENNA, May 14.

In yesterday's sitting of the Committee on the
Budget the principles were discussed according to
which the unification of the public debt is to be
carried out.

Herr Hopfen, who was supported by Dr. Brestel,
the Minister of Finance, made the following propo-
sition, which was agreed to by the Committee : —The
rate of interest shall constitute the basis of conver-
sion for the various classes of the unredeemable
debt, and the quotation prices upon the Bourse
shall serve as the basis for the unification of the
unredeemable and redeemable debts, and also for
the different classes of the redeemable debt.

ESTATES IN BANKRUPTCY.

ALA RKETS.—(7 his Day. •)

The costliness of the present bankruptcy machinery is
so universally known that new illustrations of the fact are
almost unnecessary. But one balance-sheet published in
the Grocer certainly deserves attention. The estate was
that of a grocer in Manchester, who failed with debts to
the amount of £4OO. When his estate and effects were
sold by the trustee, they realised £GB 18s. sd. How these
assets were distributed can only be gathered from the
attorney's bill :

Auctioneer's commission £6 16 0
Clerk's railway fares 0 13 0
Clerk two days
Railway fares of auctioneer, on valua-
tion and sale

Company for such water shall be, the price charged to the
cultivators, and shall be fixed so as to repres nt a fair
charge for the water to the parties using it. With refe-
rence to this stipulation, it has been a.;knowledged by the
Government that they alone are liable in respect to the
non-payment for water supplied, so that the Company are
released from all fear of liability to loss of any portion of
their water-rate. The value of the foregoing arrangement
can hardly be too highly prized, forming as it does a cer-
tain and safe guarantee of payment for every portion of
the water supplied for irrigation.
It ha. been determined by the Directors to limit, at any
rate for the present, the expladitute to about £130,000
per annum, whereby they will be enabled to make all fu-
ture calls small in amount and at regular stated periods,
not exceeding on the whole £2 per share during each
year ; at the same time they are enabled by the Act of In-
corporation to issue the required capital partly in shares
of LEO each, and partly in stock divisible into sums vary-
ing from £lO upwards —a plan which will suit the con-
venience of those who desire to limit their liability to
a fixed sum at once, and to be relieved from future
calls, and also those who may prefer to pay the amount
of capital held by them by easy instalments in the shape
of calls.

Applications for Shares and Stock may now be made at
the Company's Offices, 8 and 9, Queen-street-place, South-
wark-bridge, London, E.C. (where a full Prospectus and
Forms of Application may be had); but it is necessary
that it should be understood that no application will be
considered unless a deposit of a on each share, or of ten
pounds per cent. upon the amount of stock applied for,
has been made either to the Bankers of the Company,
Messrs. Ransom, Bonverie, and Co., No. 1, Pall Mall East,
or at the Offices of the Company. The Deposit will be
returned without deduction if the application is not ac-
ceded to.
