thirteen baud saa » met last night and discussed the Lord Knuts-ford Coercion Bill amid much excitement, finally adopting resolutions denunciatory of the action proposed to be taken by* the British Parliament.The populace are considerably exercised over the affair and are entirely iu sympathy with the action of the Assembly.Halifax, May 8\u2014A despatch from St.Johns, Nfld., says that the Legislature yesterday received a despatch from the delegates requesting it to pass resolutions confirming tiie proposals made by the delegates to the British Government, The Assembly sat till a late

some assurance that the Frcnoh will abandon their claim to exclusive fishing.London, May 8\u2014Lord Knutsford, after today\u2019s Council, resumed communication with the Newfoundland delegates, 'i he delegates\u2019 draft of the hill now known as the Knutsford Bill, is reported to have been approved by the Cabinet.Lord Knutsford\u2019s reply to the delegates memorial, it is expected, will enable

Russian securities failed.Russia has 458,000,000 rouhlfa deposited iu foreign liauks.If part of that sum is applied to the redemption of the loan» of 1850 and 1860, there will still remain 150,- \u2022 000,000 roubles in gold of M hich 100,000,000 roubles is at the disposal of the financial administration.Although the RoQpcbilds may cause a temporary delay in the projected conversion of the foreign loans, they cannot influence the con version of the internal debt.\u20191 ITALY.Roms, May 8\u2014The Italia says :\u2014The Italian Government is about to address a circu» lar to the European
