while the smaller amount of specie in the bank indicates that owing to diminished exports and increased imports Great Britain has not so complete control of the international trade and exchanges of the world as in the two previous y(ara.Paris advices quote 3 per cent.rentes at 79 france 60 centimes for account.The weekly statement of the Bank of France shows a decrease in gold of 1,275,000 francs and an increase in silver of 1,900,- 000 francs.The New York money market is firm and steady at 2 @ 2} per cent for call loane on stock collaterals.The New York stock market maintained its strength of yesterday, and there was an improvement in the volume of transactions.It is reported that the borrowing demand for stocks has increased.he lending flat of Jersey Central, New York Central.Louisvilie and Nashville, Northern Pacific common and preferred indicates the probability of an increased short interest in those stocks, which will assist in their upward reaction when that comes for the general market.As regards the movements of money in the United States the N.Y.Post points out that the \u201c total available coin and note balance of the Sub-lTreasury on August 17 was $127,679,568, of which $120,358,103 was in specie.On August 22 the balance had increased to $130,788,959, of which $123,461,939 was specie.It will be seen that the total increase is in specie, and it is understood that this arises from the presentation and cancellation of about that amount of gold certificates, which are coming in in payment of an increased volume of customs and internal revenue.These facts indicate an increase in the withdrawals of goods from bonded warehouses, at the various ports and show the probability of increasing activity in the jobbing trades.Another item of interest in the same direction is the demand for silver certificates for circulation in the southwest as currency.Legal tenders and national bank notes, and especially notes of small denominations, are very scarce there, and large amounts of gold are being remitted from St.Louis, New Orleans, and other southwestern points, and for which silver certificates ave desired because they are of as small denominations as $10, and can be used as currency.The sub-treasury in this city was this morning debit at the Clearing-House $1,600,000, which of course is part of the $4,900,000 of bonds presented yesterday for redemption under the 121st call.If we judge by the treasury operations of the past week, 1t will require the redemption of nearly all the proposed $5,000,000 weekly to prevent the accumulation of money by the treasury.\u201d The following were the fluctuations in New York to-day:\u2014 £8 # 2 4 STOCKS.es1l a =| 2 52 à (13121 à | O Q Western Union 77 | TI | TTk TTR 9900 Lake Shore .105 [1045103411043 16400 Pacific Mail.323] 32 31 800 Erie.2941 20 20 Do.2nd 92 | 923 Do.Pref.643|.Ohiv & Mtss.128 |- North-West,.\u2026 12271123 Del.,Lack& West.Del.& Hudson.#t.Joseph.Do.Pref.Rock Island Ont.& Western.20 ee Ohlo Central.7 jenedoeed 73 300 Erie & Western.rerufoooifeccleucficsuus Mob.& Ohio.sefrrsaferoefe roche sssfreccne Lou.& Nash.4431443] 443] 444] 18100 C.CC.&1I1.wo 82400.) 63d].LL.San Francisco.vosssiosnefensoJewocfosrofesau0e Tex.Pacific.| 26H) 264] 26 | 268.Cent.Pacific »+.654] 66 |.\u2018 664] 4300 Exchange.\u2026.483 |483 |.|483 |.Money .sooressenjecce) DHlenooteue afessass St P.& M.crnvesesreccce|108 091.109 Canadian Pacific.! 564! 5541 555/ 558.,.RAILWAY NEWS.{ \u2014The new tunnel on the Lackawanna road at Nicholson is 2,177 feet long, 16 feet wide and 21 feet high.\u2014The earnings of the Milwaukee, Lake Shore and Western Railroad, for the tnird week of August, were: \u20141883, $22,400;

177 exhibit a decrease.The number of deaths reported during the year is 5,335 ; the new members received, as far as reported, number 60,606 ; uo less than 27,710 are returned as *\u2018 ceased to be members.\u201d There are 1,163 ministerial leaders of eo- ciety classes, and 24,045 lay leaders ; 38,145 young perseas meet in junior society classes.The accredited local preachers number 14,183.\u2018The Wesleyans are the most conservative body of dissenters in Great Britain.In some sort they are reckoned as à part of the Established Churchthis is a tradition that has in it no practical potency.Heretofore the Wesleyans have not favored any project of disestablishment, and perhaps the eld section of the body would now be against any such scheme; but the younger ministers and laity are out-and-out dissenters.There is one item in these statistics which may puzzle American Methodists\u201427.710 persons \u201c\u201c have ceased to be members\u201d during the last ecclesiastical year.Almost one- haif cf the increase has been lost by withdrawal.10 The Methodists in England get rich and « wax fat.\u201d And when people in England get rich and ¢ wax fat\u201d there is always present the temptation toconformity.It 1s fashionable \u201cto go to church.\u201d ¢ By \u201cchurch\u201d is always meant the Established Church.These rich Wesleyans remove from town, go into the country, and\u2014go to church.However, the fact that there have been added to the societies some 60,000 members within the year is most encouraging.How very odd it is, indeed how positively ridiculous it is, to assume, as so many essay writers and newspaper paragraphists do, that religion is losing its hold upon the faita and practical support of the people.1 doubt if this assumption bolds good in any Christian country of the world, and it i= certainly wide of the mark in England.This is the simple fact\u2014let it be proclaimed from the lousetop\u2014infidelity is dead.The old forms of infidelity.all forms of infidelity, are dimodi as well as out of the serious acceptance of any section of English society.The essential and only valuable postulates of religion are as universally accepted in English society as the atmosphere or sunshine are accepted as facts of the universe.All honor to this devout and propagandist branca of the Christian Church.The Wesleyans keep où their way and it is a significant fact in current religious bistory that this Christian body adds 60,000 members to its ranks in one year.But a more remarkable occurrence has characterized this present session of the Weeleyau Conference.Indeed.such an incident has not marked religion in England since the days of Wesley, and is a memorable illustration of the tolerance and breadth of charity now &o pronounced everywhere in ecclesiastical life and relations.Eighteen clergymen of the Church of England in Hull attended the Wesleyan Conference and presented \u2018\u2018 an Address of Welcome.\u201d This address was in most admirable taste.It had none of the patronizing tone which often marks the overtures of clergymen of the church towards their dissenting brethren.Dr.Pope observed in his reply to the address : « They came to bring no reproscues, no rebukes, no overtures tor absorption or otherwise.\u201d Indeed, they came to congratulate their Wesleyan brethren on + the noble and spiritual work\u201d they were doing in this land and in other lands.\u2014London Letter.THE PRINCE OF WALES AND THE END OF THE SEASON.The Prince of Wales simply amazes everybody by Lis restless\u2014or rather his unresting activity.Oue might ask, with no little reason: When does the Prince sleep?He plays macy parts and plays them all uncommonly well.He is here, there and everywhere.He 18 perpetual motion itself.One reads of him at York, at the Exhibition there, in the morning, and then at the Fisneries Exhibition in London in the evening.He entertains like a Prince, and 16 the most genial of guests in the homes of his friends, and one might say these friends are of all classes.He has promised so be present at the International Club jubilee at Baden-Baden the end of this present month.It is hoped that the aged Emperor of Germany will honor this occasion with his royal and revered presence.Such a fete as this promises to be will bring back the former days of Baden- Baden\u2019s glory when thie gambling-tables raade it one of the most enchanting, as well as dangerous, centres of European fashion.When the end of the season came it was supposed his Royal Highness would rest\u2014that he must have rest.But no.He thrives upon this habit of unremitting activity.Soon he will be hooting grouse, perhaps in Scotland, and soon after travelling in Germany.He is a popular Prince, and it is believed he will be a wise and beneficiernt ruler.LINCOLN'S SON.Boston Courier.What a singular position is that of the Secretary of War?His father is already as historic as Cs:sar and nearly as remote.And yet Robert Lincoln is a young man whose hair 1s not yet gray.It is aslodd as if Octavius were alive\u2014as if the Sphinx had a son moving around to-day ina Prince Albert frock.A grandson of John C.Calhoun is a farmer in Mississippi.He is a man of great executive ability and great weath [all made by himself], and the leading planter of the state.One would think that by such an achievement a man might attain to an individuality.But no; he is never spoken of as Joun C.Calhoun [his own name], but as the grandson of John C.Calhoun.Taking all these things into consideration itis no wonder that Fletcher Webster, of our own state, a genial gentleman of large and various abilities, said what he did.\u201d All his life, no matter what he attempted to do, he was invariably put down by comparison with the \u201cGod-like Daniel,\u201d his father.This fetish pursued him, dwarfed and minified him everywhere.Finally, when elected as colonel of the Twelfth Massachusetts, he cried out, as it were, in a jubilation of emancipation : \u201cThank God, my father was never the colonel of a regiment.\u201d He had attained to an individuality.JAPANESE HAIR DRESSING.« The following detauis,\u201d says the Pall Mall Gazette.\u201c with regard to the hair dressing of Japanese laaies may be of interest in these days, and may help to elucidate much of the mystery which always surrounds the meaning of a Japanese picture.In Japau à girl ai the age of nine wears her hair tied up in a red scarf bound around the back of her head ; the forehead However, | is left bare, with the exception of a couple of locks, one on each side.When she is of a marriageable age she combs her hair forward, and makes it up into the shape of a fan or a butterfly, and at the same time decorates it with silver cord and balls of varied colors.This mêëans everything and is fully understood by the young men of Japan.A widow who wishes for a second husband puts a tortoise-shell pin horizontally at the back of her head and twists her hair around it, while an inconsolable widow cuts her hair short and goes in for no adornment of any sort.These last are very rare.By these simple means much confusion is avoided.A glance around the ball room suffices to tell the age and status of every lady in the place, and a great deal might be said for the introduction of such a custom into this country.\u201d A NEW ORDER.Wall Street News.\u201c Waiter,\u201d he began, ¢ you may bring me a spring chicken, a piece of lamb, a choice eut of\u2014\u2014\u201d He was iuterrupted by the appearance of a friend, who chatted with him three or four minutes, and then left.\u201c Waiter, how far had I got?\u201d asked the gentleman.\u201c You were going to order a choice eut.\u201d \u201c Ah!

while the smaller amount of specie in the bank indicates that owing to diminished exports and increased imports Great Britain has not so complete control of the international trade and exchanges of the world as in the two previous y(ara.Paris advices quote 3 per cent.rentes at 79 france 60 centimes for account.The weekly statement of the Bank of France shows a decrease in gold of 1,275,000 francs and an increase in silver of 1,900,- 000 francs.The New York money market is firm and steady at 2 @ 2} per cent for call loane on stock collaterals.The New York stock market maintained its strength of yesterday, and there was an improvement in the volume of transactions.It is reported that the borrowing demand for stocks has increased.he lending flat of Jersey Central, New York Central.Louisvilie and Nashville, Northern Pacific common and preferred indicates the probability of an increased short interest in those stocks, which will assist in their upward reaction when that comes for the general market.As regards the movements of money in the United States the N.Y.Post points out that the \u201c total available coin and note balance of the Sub-lTreasury on August 17 was $127,679,568, of which $120,358,103 was in specie.On August 22 the balance had increased to $130,788,959, of which $123,461,939 was specie.It will be seen that the total increase is in specie, and it is understood that this arises from the presentation and cancellation of about that amount of gold certificates, which are coming in in payment of an increased volume of customs and internal revenue.These facts indicate an increase in the withdrawals of goods from bonded warehouses, at the various ports and show the probability of increasing activity in the jobbing trades.Another item of interest in the same direction is the demand for silver certificates for circulation in the southwest as currency.Legal tenders and national bank notes, and especially notes of small denominations, are very scarce there, and large amounts of gold are being remitted from St.Louis, New Orleans, and other southwestern points, and for which silver certificates ave desired because they are of as small denominations as $10, and can be used as currency.The sub-treasury in this city was this morning debit at the Clearing-House $1,600,000, which of course is part of the $4,900,000 of bonds presented yesterday for redemption under the 121st call.If we judge by the treasury operations of the past week, 1t will require the redemption of nearly all the proposed $5,000,000 weekly to prevent the accumulation of money by the treasury.\u201d The following were the fluctuations in New York to-day:\u2014 £8 # 2 4 STOCKS.es1l a =| 2 52 à (13121 à | O Q Western Union 77 | TI | TTk TTR 9900 Lake Shore .105 [1045103411043 16400 Pacific Mail.323] 32 31 800 Erie.2941 20 20 Do.2nd 92 | 923 Do.Pref.643|.Ohiv & Mtss.128 |- North-West,.\u2026 12271123 Del.,Lack& West.Del.& Hudson.#t.Joseph.Do.Pref.Rock Island Ont.& Western.20 ee Ohlo Central.7 jenedoeed 73 300 Erie & Western.rerufoooifeccleucficsuus Mob.& Ohio.sefrrsaferoefe roche sssfreccne Lou.& Nash.4431443] 443] 444] 18100 C.CC.&1I1.wo 82400.) 63d].LL.San Francisco.vosssiosnefensoJewocfosrofesau0e Tex.Pacific.| 26H) 264] 26 | 268.Cent.Pacific »+.654] 66 |.\u2018 664] 4300 Exchange.\u2026.483 |483 |.|483 |.Money .sooressenjecce) DHlenooteue afessass St P.& M.crnvesesreccce|108 091.109 Canadian Pacific.! 564! 5541 555/ 558.,.RAILWAY NEWS.{ \u2014The new tunnel on the Lackawanna road at Nicholson is 2,177 feet long, 16 feet wide and 21 feet high.\u2014The earnings of the Milwaukee, Lake Shore and Western Railroad, for the tnird week of August, were: \u20141883, $22,400;

177 exhibit a decrease.The number of deaths reported during the year is 5,335 ; the new members received, as far as reported, number 60,606 ; uo less than 27,710 are returned as *\u2018 ceased to be members.\u201d There are 1,163 ministerial leaders of eo- ciety classes, and 24,045 lay leaders ; 38,145 young perseas meet in junior society classes.The accredited local preachers number 14,183.\u2018The Wesleyans are the most conservative body of dissenters in Great Britain.In some sort they are reckoned as à part of the Established Churchthis is a tradition that has in it no practical potency.Heretofore the Wesleyans have not favored any project of disestablishment, and perhaps the eld section of the body would now be against any such scheme; but the younger ministers and laity are out-and-out dissenters.There is one item in these statistics which may puzzle American Methodists\u201427.710 persons \u201c\u201c have ceased to be members\u201d during the last ecclesiastical year.Almost one- haif cf the increase has been lost by withdrawal.10 The Methodists in England get rich and « wax fat.\u201d And when people in England get rich and ¢ wax fat\u201d there is always present the temptation toconformity.It 1s fashionable \u201cto go to church.\u201d ¢ By \u201cchurch\u201d is always meant the Established Church.These rich Wesleyans remove from town, go into the country, and\u2014go to church.However, the fact that there have been added to the societies some 60,000 members within the year is most encouraging.How very odd it is, indeed how positively ridiculous it is, to assume, as so many essay writers and newspaper paragraphists do, that religion is losing its hold upon the faita and practical support of the people.1 doubt if this assumption bolds good in any Christian country of the world, and it i= certainly wide of the mark in England.This is the simple fact\u2014let it be proclaimed from the lousetop\u2014infidelity is dead.The old forms of infidelity.all forms of infidelity, are dimodi as well as out of the serious acceptance of any section of English society.The essential and only valuable postulates of religion are as universally accepted in English society as the atmosphere or sunshine are accepted as facts of the universe.All honor to this devout and propagandist branca of the Christian Church.The Wesleyans keep où their way and it is a significant fact in current religious bistory that this Christian body adds 60,000 members to its ranks in one year.But a more remarkable occurrence has characterized this present session of the Weeleyau Conference.Indeed.such an incident has not marked religion in England since the days of Wesley, and is a memorable illustration of the tolerance and breadth of charity now &o pronounced everywhere in ecclesiastical life and relations.Eighteen clergymen of the Church of England in Hull attended the Wesleyan Conference and presented \u2018\u2018 an Address of Welcome.\u201d This address was in most admirable taste.It had none of the patronizing tone which often marks the overtures of clergymen of the church towards their dissenting brethren.Dr.Pope observed in his reply to the address : « They came to bring no reproscues, no rebukes, no overtures tor absorption or otherwise.\u201d Indeed, they came to congratulate their Wesleyan brethren on + the noble and spiritual work\u201d they were doing in this land and in other lands.\u2014London Letter.THE PRINCE OF WALES AND THE END OF THE SEASON.The Prince of Wales simply amazes everybody by Lis restless\u2014or rather his unresting activity.Oue might ask, with no little reason: When does the Prince sleep?He plays macy parts and plays them all uncommonly well.He is here, there and everywhere.He 18 perpetual motion itself.One reads of him at York, at the Exhibition there, in the morning, and then at the Fisneries Exhibition in London in the evening.He entertains like a Prince, and 16 the most genial of guests in the homes of his friends, and one might say these friends are of all classes.He has promised so be present at the International Club jubilee at Baden-Baden the end of this present month.It is hoped that the aged Emperor of Germany will honor this occasion with his royal and revered presence.Such a fete as this promises to be will bring back the former days of Baden- Baden\u2019s glory when thie gambling-tables raade it one of the most enchanting, as well as dangerous, centres of European fashion.When the end of the season came it was supposed his Royal Highness would rest\u2014that he must have rest.But no.He thrives upon this habit of unremitting activity.Soon he will be hooting grouse, perhaps in Scotland, and soon after travelling in Germany.He is a popular Prince, and it is believed he will be a wise and beneficiernt ruler.LINCOLN'S SON.Boston Courier.What a singular position is that of the Secretary of War?His father is already as historic as Cs:sar and nearly as remote.And yet Robert Lincoln is a young man whose hair 1s not yet gray.It is aslodd as if Octavius were alive\u2014as if the Sphinx had a son moving around to-day ina Prince Albert frock.A grandson of John C.Calhoun is a farmer in Mississippi.He is a man of great executive ability and great weath [all made by himself], and the leading planter of the state.One would think that by such an achievement a man might attain to an individuality.But no; he is never spoken of as Joun C.Calhoun [his own name], but as the grandson of John C.Calhoun.Taking all these things into consideration itis no wonder that Fletcher Webster, of our own state, a genial gentleman of large and various abilities, said what he did.\u201d All his life, no matter what he attempted to do, he was invariably put down by comparison with the \u201cGod-like Daniel,\u201d his father.This fetish pursued him, dwarfed and minified him everywhere.Finally, when elected as colonel of the Twelfth Massachusetts, he cried out, as it were, in a jubilation of emancipation : \u201cThank God, my father was never the colonel of a regiment.\u201d He had attained to an individuality.JAPANESE HAIR DRESSING.« The following detauis,\u201d says the Pall Mall Gazette.\u201c with regard to the hair dressing of Japanese laaies may be of interest in these days, and may help to elucidate much of the mystery which always surrounds the meaning of a Japanese picture.In Japau à girl ai the age of nine wears her hair tied up in a red scarf bound around the back of her head ; the forehead However, | is left bare, with the exception of a couple of locks, one on each side.When she is of a marriageable age she combs her hair forward, and makes it up into the shape of a fan or a butterfly, and at the same time decorates it with silver cord and balls of varied colors.This mêëans everything and is fully understood by the young men of Japan.A widow who wishes for a second husband puts a tortoise-shell pin horizontally at the back of her head and twists her hair around it, while an inconsolable widow cuts her hair short and goes in for no adornment of any sort.These last are very rare.By these simple means much confusion is avoided.A glance around the ball room suffices to tell the age and status of every lady in the place, and a great deal might be said for the introduction of such a custom into this country.\u201d A NEW ORDER.Wall Street News.\u201c Waiter,\u201d he began, ¢ you may bring me a spring chicken, a piece of lamb, a choice eut of\u2014\u2014\u201d He was iuterrupted by the appearance of a friend, who chatted with him three or four minutes, and then left.\u201c Waiter, how far had I got?\u201d asked the gentleman.\u201c You were going to order a choice eut.\u201d \u201c Ah!

the Alsace protest party in the Reichstag, who was recently forbidden to publish a newspaper in Metz, and who wrote to the governor expressing the hope he would be avenged, will be prosecuted for high

recent article in the North German Gazette attacking France is based on serious grounds.-\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 DEATH OF THE COUNT DE CHAM, BORD.Yesterday at
