By Cable. RENEWAL OF THE ARMISTICE. Lonpow, August 13—Noon.—The armistice between Italy and Austria, which expired on Saturday, has been renewed for four weeks. An official Berlin paper opposes the claim of France for an extension of her frontier. There is no important political news this evening. The closing prices of to-day are as follows: Consols for money, 57 4; Five twenties, 6- s- THE QUEEN'S SPEECH. The Queen’s speech is unimportant. Re- ferring to the war in Europe, she says ber Majesty has not deemed it expedient to take partin a contest in which neither the honor of the Crown nor the interests of her subjects de- manded an active intervention. She expresses the hope that the negotiations now in Fotme will tend to produce a lasting peace. Her Ma- jesty mext alluded to the Fenian movement, and complimented the Government of the United States for its friendly action during the Canadian raide. The Queen says that the suspension of the habeas corpus act in Ireland must be continued till the next session of Parliament. She hopes that confidence in the nancial condition of the country will soon be restored. The royal speech next touches on the cattle plague and cholera in the United Kingdom and closes with an allusion to the Atlantic telegraph and its completion: a work ‘which it is to be hoped, she says,pwill tend to Tomote that triendly feeling which it is most Hesirable should subsist between her Majesty's dominions and the great Kepublic of the United States. In the House of Commons Lord Stanley said that it was true that diplomatic commanica- tions were being exchanged between France and Prossia. NAPOLEON'S DEMANDS UPON PRUSSIA.
