Foreign Intelligence.

NEW YORK, August 2.-The Europ.
can mail has just arrived and furnish
es the following facts:
Earl Derby and Lord Stanley, in both
Houses of the English Parliament, set
forth the neutral and observnnt policy
of England, inclining evidently toward
the divine right feeling. She will not
object to German reconstruction, in the
shape of great empire, on Bismarck g
plan.
The Prussian cabinet flushed with
its prowess, attributes the anxiety
of Napoleon and the Gear of Russia for
peace to causes other than disinterest-
ed friendship for either the king or his
people.
The British government does not
object to reform meetings on principle,
but to the fact of Hyde Park being made
the scene of agitation. Mr.. Bendles
who appears to be IL "Feargus, O'Con-
nOr". or "O'COnnell'' in embryo, OBJ
jects very decisively to the authority
of the Police Commissioner in the
matter.
Three French war frigates have been
ordered at Cherburg to land their guns
and sail for Mexico to commence the
retirement Of the French army.

NEW YORK, Aug. 2.
The Posts money article says:
a very lively speculative movement pre-
vailed at the stock exchange to-day. The
loan market Is unchanged. Stocks at the
opening were generally higher. Govern
shares were active, especially Erie, North
western, Rock Island and Reading. New
York Central was 1917; Erie 6SI5; Hudson
River 1901; Illinois Central 12S54.
The Commercials money article says:
AT the morning board stocks continued
very active and with n few exceptions the
railroad list was about 4 per cent. higher;
there are many outside buyers in the market
ana the upward movement of prices does not
appear TO have reached its climax, there be-
ing now as many buyers as when prices were
5GlA per cent. lower. Governments were
dull ut the board at about yesterdays prices,
except 5-2Ds OF 1854, which were Il lower, and
l0-ltS, which advanced Il. After the board
closed 5-1s, new, 1857 bid, an advance Of q,
and the issue OF 1886, 1855 bid, 1n improve
posed to be owing to the reception OF later
quotations from London, but If SO the quota
tons have not TRANSFERRED. The advance in
BIDS OF 1855 Is due to decision of the SeCre-
tary OF the Treasury to cOnf1ne for the pres
ent Mt least the conversion OF 1905 into bonds
OF 1865 to the August series of notes This
decision will he duly announced this week.
