ANTI-CORN-LAW MEETINGS AT HULL.—On Fri-
day a meeting was held in the Town-hall, at eleven
o'clock, to receive a deputation from the Anti-Corn-
law League, consisting of Richard Cobden,' Esq., M.P.,
John *Bright, Esq., M.P., and Colonel Thompson.
The hall was crowded to excess. Sir Wm. Low-
throp was called to the chair. The speeches made on
the occasion fill six pages of the Hull Rockingham
newspaper, but owing to the great length of the
splendid speech made by Mr. Shell in defence of Mr.
John O'Connell, in the Queen's Bench, Dublin, we
cannot find room for even an outline. In the evening
another meeting took place in the Victoria-rooms,
when about 500 persons assembled, and Sir Wm.
Lowthrop was again called to the chair. The meet-
ing was addressed by the Rev. James Aspinall, rector
of Althorp, Lincolnshire ; Mr. Bright, the Rev. E.
Higginson, Colonel Thompson, and' the late Mayor of
Hull, Mr. Alderman Atkinson. The subscriptions
amounted to 354/. ss.

PRO-CORN-LAW MOVEMENTS.—Anti-League meet-
ings have recently been held at Grantham, at Hunting-
don, at Aylesbury, at Gloucester, in North Bedfordshire,
and Derby, and at Long Sutton. At all these meetings
the speeches were pretty nearly of the same character,
and full of abuse of the League.

The Cabinet Council appointed to be held this after-
noon at the Foreign-office, Downing-street, is fixed for
two o'clock. All the Ministers are expected to attend.

The Sheriffs' Dinner will be given this evening, by
Lord Wharncliffe, to the Ministers and great officers,
at his Lordship's residence, in Curzon-street. The
Sheriffs' list for the present year will then be arranged.

ALEXANDRIA, DEC. 26.—The theatre in this city was re-
opened after an individual had been banished from Egypt
at the desire of the Sardinian Consul. We thought that the
matter was now ended ; but the day before yesterday the
French packet brought orders from Florence immediately to
arrest the unlucky actor who has spoken the few words
which has given offence, and to put him on board the first
Tuscan ship bound for Leghorn, where he is to be put on his
trial. This affair has caused a great sensation here.
An important transaction has lately taken place. Ibrahim
Pacha has sold 40,000 cwt. of coffee to a Greek house, on
what conditions and at what price is a secret, and few per-
sons believe the price that has been mentioned. _

It would be interesting to know, at the conclusion of the
year, the Report of the operations of the famous Egyptian
Bank, which still exists in name. If the establishment of
this bank excited the apprehensions of the merchants of the
place, they are now revenged by the ridiculous situation in
which this pompous institution appears. But if the share-
holders in the bank are duped, there is one, however, who
laughs in his sleeve.
