Five millions and upwards sterling in fort
night. Failures TO this extent, must produce
other and wider losses. SO much for the results
Of a wild speculation 1.-The next four or five
months will be a critical time to the commercial
circles Of Great Britain and the Continent.
The MAcEDoNIAN.-We hear Of this vessel at
Greenock, where, on the ID of September,
"grand soiree'' was given to Commodore Deksy
49, H. ~ r IL
and gentlemen being present The Commodore
made a clever speech, when his health was pro-
posed, in which he adroitly complimented the
ladies', the Odd Fellows and the good people Of
Greenock, Mrs. De Hays grandfather, Henry
Eckford, having served his apprenticeship to
ship-b builder there.
On the following Monday dinner was given
TO the Commodore and officers by the Central
Board of the Highland Relief Fund
The U. 5. ship Macedonian sailed from
Greenock on the 18th Of September for New
York.
The sale of the Shakespeare house took place
on the 10th of September. The first bid was
1901, the second 2000i., and the third 2l00i.
The Sir~,ord and London Shakespeare Commit
tee, organized for the purchase of the house,
then offered 30OOi, and no higher bid being
made they were declared 10 be the purchasers.
In addition TO the house the committee pur-
chased small property adjoining, for 500,
making in ali $500; this sum exceeding, by
nearly 2OOOl., the amount of the sum subscribed.
The call for subscriptions is therefore continued.
OBITUARY.-Among the deaths Of eminent
men recorded in the papers by the steamer are
those of Marshal Oudinot, Duke Of Reggie, at
the age Of 81; VI. Francis Frazen, Bishop Of
Hernosand in Sweden, known as a poet and
historian, 10; and Chief Justice Pennefather of
the Queens Bench in ireland. lie presided at
the trial of Mr.. O'Connell.

The Praslin murder continued to be one of
the great subjects Of the day, but under a new
form--a,tention being now liked upon the trials
of the journals that had been seized for remarks
upon IL, duplicating the Government or the
hing in connivance at the suicide of the Duke.
The accounts from Algeria are represented as
unfavorable, calling for large reinforcsments to
the French armies there. Abd-el- kader was
making himself quite at home in Morocco, and
the Emperor is said TO have solicited aid from
France to get rid Of him.
Considerable sensation had been caused in
Paris by a report that the Duke de Nemours had
been accidentally shot while sporting at Com
Piegne. Although the account appeared in
most Of the papers, il was pronounced by good
authorities in Paris TO be ga pure invention
To some extent, however, the rumor was subse-
iuently confirmed. The accident is explained
in Gaiigh1ni's Messenger
"While the Dukes de Nemours and d. Aumale
and the Prince de Joinville were out together on
Wednesday, and while the latter was cooking
his gun to take shot, it went off inadvertently;
and small portion of the charge struck his
elder brother in the head Fortunately, how
ever, the consequence was very slight"
The Duchess d'AumaIe was safely delivered
of a son, at the Palace of ST. Cloud, ON Satur-

NJ Durand. the responsible editor of the Ga |
seffe de France, who was condemned by default
for articles published in the paper respecting the
murder of the Duchess Of Praslin, appeared be- |
fore the Court of Assizes, and took his trial |
upon the merits. Durand was sentenced to
three months Imprisonment and fine of 1000 |
francs. All the remaining copies Of the two i
numbers OF the journal were ordered to be des- |
troyed.
The Democratic Pacifque had been tried on |
similar charge and acquitted.

The "movement" in this country seems to be |
with great rapidity, and assuming
more and more important aspect. The London
Spectator of September IL, gives the following
outline sketch Of events in various parts of the
peninsula:
If the rulers Of Italy are Of accord, they do |
not as yet 60 fast enough for the people, and
the progress Of the peaceful revolution is has
tened by the popular impotence. The record
Of the journalist can barely keep pace with the
march OF events; now some great movement oc-
ours in Rome, now the sounds Of revolt in the
Neapolitan dominions penetrate through the
muffling Of the press; now the scene is shifted
to Lucca, TO Leghern, TO Genoa; and the Aus
TRANS cannot keep stiffness even i'm their own
territory.
We last week learned the ready concession
yielded by the Grand Duke of Lucca to the de-
mands Of his subjects; he retracted, but only Ia
make his concession the mors complete. After
his paternal proclamation, Charles Louis ran
off, like Louis the Sixteenth, and repudiated his
deputation was sent to bring him
back; he declined to 60 home, but offered to ap-
point regency with a chief of the popular
iePutation at its head; the managers of the revo-
ution were not to be thus foiled-thev threat
med to coniscate the Dukes goods; ON which
10 returned in haste and did all that he was re-
luired to do. 1t has been ascertained, there
