PORTLAND, Feb. 2s.-The following is the latest
intelligence brought by the Canadian:
LATEST VIA LONDONDERRY.
The Times city article, of Thursday evening saw
the public were greatly astonshed the advance of
the bank rate as there is scarcely fact known to
commercial people that can in anv way account for
the movement As far as precedent goes, both as
it is entirely unsupported. On the continent the
rate of discount is IL per cent; at Frankfort
between GO per cent, and at Paris, and even
at New ork, 6 per cent
The exchange in China shows an Improvement of
two per cent, consequently silver will be sent
tnere Tue bank return tomorrow may supply
the means of drawing some positive Deductions
There are other favorable symptoms. Gold con-
tinues to be taken to the bank, further amount Of
tll2,0O0 having been carried there to-day, and
more is expected to morrow. In the open discount
market and in the Stock Exchange there were yes
terday, and even this morning, more signs of
diminution of the pressure than had been observed
for some days: The Bank of France is understood,
during the past month, to have experienced a re-
covery ofneary e. 900, 900 in their stock of bullion
and an extraordinary reduction in their discount.
The English funds opened at fractional recov-
cry, but a renewed decline took place On the an
nouncement from the Bank. The stock market
continued its upward course under the influence of
the recent Chancery order. The joint stock banks
and discount houses, however, have deferred till
tomorrow friday the question of making a
change in their allowance on deposits. general
decline took place in the railway market, from
which there was scarcely any recovery.
The Times says the Bank of France would have
reduced their rate of discount yesterday but for the
receipt of despatch announcing the steps taken
by the Bank of England.
Mr.. Cameron, Grand Master of the Loyal Orange
Association Of British America, has presented an
address to the Queen from their Grand Lodge ex-
pressive of devoted loyalty, and representing that
the association were under no legal disability in
British North America; therefore their claim to
be publicly recognized during the progress of the
Prince of Wales through Canada ought to have
been admitted by the advisers of his Royal High
ness
The absence of demand from China has reduced
the Mexican dollars received by the last steamer
about to their actual value as silver.
The Conference on the affairs of Syria assem-
bles in Paris about the Goth.
London letter in the Paris Woniteur asserts
that number of English merchants are about to
present an address to the Queen, praying that a
negotiation be opened with France for mutual
reduction of existing ornaments.
Parliamentary proceedings were unimportant.
The rumor was received that Lord John Russell
will shortly accept peerage and seat in the
House of Lords.
Another pamphlet, entitled "France, Rome and
Italy," by NJ. La Guerroniere, was announced for
publication the 18th. The Patrie says it will
give clear insight into the Imperial policy, and
enable Europe to judge.
The semi official pamphlet, on the same subject,
already published, says, in the event of French
troops leaving no other foreign power will be al
lowed to supply their place.
The Bonaparte-P Patterson case was again before
the French court on the 9Th. The Imperial Attor-
ney explained its leading bearings and remarked
then the decree of March I'd, 1905, which has been
considered as annulling the marriage, did not pro-
nounce the nuliity of the marriage, but regarded
it as pre-existry;-that the marriage was undoubt-
edly legal one in America, but that in France
certain forms were necessary-although the alb
sence of these forms did not constitute an absolute
nulhty. In regard to the son OF Madame Patter-
son, he said he had been treated most kindly in the
excess OF tenderness, caused by the sadness which
exile had given to a part of the Bonaparte family;
but that young Patterson had been thus taken to
their arms without their wishing or desiring to
recognize his legitimacy. As regards the mar
riage, Prince Jerome had been fore.warned, and
could not have deceived himself as to the legality
of his uniOn and Miss Patterson if historical facts
are to be believed, did not act in good faith; he
was, however, inclined to believe that she deceived
herself. The fact of the annuling of the marriage
having been provided for in the contract, must not,
however, be taken as conclusive, for it was an
American contract, in which it was natural that
all chances should be coolly calculated.
AS to the decisions rendered in 1856 he regarded
the question decided and did not think that the
court could do other than confirm it. In conclud-
ing, Mr. Duvignan remarked: "Y our independence,
gentlemen, has been alluded to, it is what YOU hold
most dear. The high rank of one of the parties
may seem to give some merit to your impartiaIity.
presslons which arise in cause, you would have
certainly to struggle against very different sent.
ment now, you would have to arm yourself against
the interest which the demand of a wife, who was
the idol of a young love and afterwards the victim
OF political necessity, justly excites; against the
interest which her son and her grandson excite
both at least irreproachable-and who appear at
this bar to raise their voice for the honor of their
blood and their name. Whatsoever NAV be said
beyond this court the French magstracy is accus-
toned to restrain its feelings for its Justice is but
the law which speaks" The court adjourned its
judgment eight days.

duches of Austria. Here is goodly list of royal
infants. Those OF our countrymen and countrvwo-
men who happen to be fred with the idea of allying
themselves to royalty had better turn their aten-
ton to this expatriated family. But we have not
the list of those of its members who were
at Gaeta at its capitulaton, or a very short time
previously.
There were in additions:
Maria Theresa Isabella, Archduchess of Austria
Queen Dowager, mother of the King. We believe,
however, that she went to Rome short time back

King, and mOrganatically married to Miss Penelope
Smith, by whom he has two children.
Francisco di Paulo Louis Emmanuel, Count of
Trapani, who married lady with the following

ia Gabrielle, daughter of the ex-Grand Duke of
Tuscany; by her he has four children.
The grand total amounts to twenty persons, who,
with their lords and ladies in waiting, officers of
the household, instructors attendants nurses me-
mails and dogs, will make enough to fill good
sized ship.
