THE NORTHERN - TIMES.--LIVERPOOL; WEDNESDAY.  marks remaining go to show that every act, so far as can be conjectured, was committed within a circle of from four to five feet in diameter. If this be so, the only way of accounting for the appear• ance of the murderer in the room, is by supposing that, having entered the terminus by a passage leading from the platform, at its west sinde, he asp ended the stairs, and lurking by, either in one of the rooms on the corridor, or on a sort of cask staircase adjoining the cashier's room, awaited an opportunity of finding the coast clear, and then, seeing that the door was not locked--which is now generally supposed, notwithstanding the evidence at the inquest—opened it quietly, and so as not to attract attention. Rewards have been offered for information by Mr. Simon Little, of Cullentra, county of Wexford, to the amount of £lOO, and by Mr. Thomas W. Bond, of Stephen's green, to the amount of £5O. The railway company have not as yet offered any reward, but it is said that the Government contemplate offering n less a sum than £5OO, under the usual restriction. Matters on the Continent are again reported to be in a very unpleasant position. A telegraphic despatch from Paris, early this morning, informs us that the Constantinople papers announce that the Russian cruisers, of Abasia, had captured several Turkish shore beats, loaded with smuggled salt. Admiral Lyons sent some gun boat sloops to demand a reason for this capture, but one of their sloops, the Beager, attempting to penetrate the Sea of Azof, the Russians refused her the passage of the Straits of Yenikale, and even fired upon her The details relative to the affairs in which the Persians who had fired themselves into Herat had been repulsed, are confirmed, but this dates so far back as the month of Jaly. Herat was taken in September, and the capture of the place is not contradicted. _ .  According to Vienna advices of a late date, it would appear that not only is the Prussian Government opposed to England, Austria, and Turkey in the Bessarabian frontier question, but Baron von Alanteuffel is endeavouring to consolidate the friendly relations which have recently been established between the Russian and French Cabinets. It is also related that the Prussian MinisterPresident speaks and acts as if the alliance between Russia and France were a fait accompli It is still asserted that the question of the resumption of the Paris Conference is far from being settled and it is said that the Emperor Francis Joseph has expressed himself to the effect that it will not be his fault if the stipulations of the treaty of Paris are not fulfilled. We get a strange report from Naples by telegraph, which says the Government is about to make a free port of Naples. This is highly improbable, for the Customs duties are one of the chic resources of the revenue. The city was tranquil on the 12th. From Spain wo learn that the fusion between the Carlists and the reigning branch of the Spanish Bourbons is advancing towards its conclusion, but without the concurrence, or, perhaps, the knowledge of General llarvaez. According to letters received from well-informed parties in several continental cities, the removal of the apprehensions recently entertained respecting the cordiality of the relations between the English and French Governments has been attended with a favourable effect upon the money market.
