The London Times of August 15 says it is generally reported that the applications for the required 18,000,000 of Rentes for the new French loan amounted to 800,000,000, or about forty-five times the sum to be allotted. According to other, and perhaps more correct, estimates, they have been to the extent of thirty-five to thirty-nine times the re- quired toca. The London News says that taking the applica- tions for tie loan at thirty-five times the amount of the entire loan the total applications would repre- sent the sui of £610,000,000 sterling, or somewhere about £1,000,000 more than the national debt of France. The fact proves that ‘‘real confidence exists in France, notwithstanding the depression of trade." Reuter’s New York telegram, a3 published in the London Times, announced the appointment of Mr. William Pinckney Whyte as United States Senator for Maryiand, to succeed Mr. Reverdy Johnson, thus:— Governor Swan, of Maryland, has appointed Mr. William Pinckney, a white and democrat, to succeed Mr. Reverdy Johason in the Senaie. A letter from Berlin reports that the state of M. Bismarck’s health is not satisfactory, He continues to suffer from want of sleep and is obliged to take opium to procure him some repo: All the Spanish Ministers returned to Madrid. The Cause of the reassembling of the Cabtuet is much disputed, but there is no doubt (hat It is partly owing to risings of more or less importance in different parts of the kingdom. The ‘telegram stating that insurgent bands made tieir appearance in the neighborhood of Caspe, in the province of Arragon, is confirmed by intelligence through Paris, The letter recently addressed by the Duke and Duchess de Montpensier to Queen Isabella not only protests ayainst their exile from Spain, but declares also that the Spanish government intrigued to pre- vent their fighnesses from taking up their real- dences at Lisbon, and that these intrigues were the sole cause of their prolonged stay on board the fri- gate Villa de Madrid. Asopplement of the Paris Monitewr, published at a late hour August 14, says documents which arrived at the Ministry of Marine do not confirm the details published by the sager di Midi relative to the surprise of the French post of Kichgia, in Cochin China. ‘The fact appears to be that all the victims perished while fighting to the last.

I have just seen one against Cardinal Berardi and his brother, These satires are always in verse and some- times very clever, but this one jacks cleverness alto- ether, The poetry ts bad and everything said about the Cardinal is stupid. There is one thing worth mentioning in it, Which, although not well told, is sudiciently piquant in itself, It seems that this brother of Berardi’s, Don ——, sold once for $25,000 a despatch which he must have found on the former's table (he, the Cardinal, was then Under Secretary of State) to the Itallans, Meérode, at that time Minister of War, had determined to have him shor, but pardoned lum on hea) from hunself that it was not from love of Italy that he had delivered up the despatch, but merely from want of money. As you may well believe, | don’t answer for the truth of this most cutting incident. ‘The census has just been made. There are 217,373 inhabitants in Rome and the suburbs. Since last year there has been only an augmentation of 1,806, while from 1866 to 1867 of nearly 6,000. ‘This difference is partly on account of the cholera last summer, which made nearly 3,000 victims. There are 28 cardinals, 28 bishops and 1,372 priests; of monks and nuns, 7,886; 4,602 Jews and of mulitary, 19,738, There are Xty-one different religious orders for men and twenty-nine seminarics or colieges, The German has the test nuinber of students, 587; then comes the Engilsh, then the Roman, the French, the South American and, sixth, in- nuinber, North’ Amorica, which has thirty-seven students. Of course,. the milttary counted are only the Romans; for with strangers, the Pope has an artny of about [8,000 men. We do not hear of many new encounters of the brigands in the provinces with the gendarmes, but im Frascati there have been two ailairs of a private nature, Firstly, ten days 0, Mr. Santovecchia, @ very rich proprietor, was shot at and wounded in the shoulder aud neck at twelve o'clock in the day while passing tn his carriage along a road quite near Frascati, Both he and his coachinan were wounded, They only saw two meu with guns, who rose on their roach fired. The second is more serious. ‘The custode (j ‘on in charge) of the Villa Muttt was. murdered two hights ago. Six men came up to him at ie wine in the evening, a3 he was returning vi ais Sah is close upon the town, tied him, and were taking him, no doubt, up to the house, which they vould have entered and robbed the in- mates, if npt worse.

Commerce of the Emptre=The Accumutation of Gold and Payments for Breadstufly [From the Paris Temps, August 10.)

Last year the same item was %5,000,000f, and in 1866 only 14,000,000, Let us add—and many will feel astonished at the fect—that, notwithstanding this po’ lL cause of the exportation of gold—that ts, the large imports of breadstuffs, which formerly empti the bank cellars and raised the rate of dis- countthat establishment at present overflows with bullion, and the rate of interest remains low; and, m™ ver, we import 416,000,000f. of the precious mmethte, and send abroad only 227,000,000f— the difference in our favor being 180,000,000f.

Mutual vs, Coton of Lansingburg. For the first time this season the Unions (Hag+ makers) of Lansingbarg appeared in this vicinity yesterday and repaired to the Union grounds, where they met the Mutuals of this city and played with them the return game Of their match, The residents hereabouts, having heard so much of the Haymakers and the extraordinary might of their new pitcher, were, of course, anxious to witness their style of doing business, and consequently an assemblage of some five or six thousand persons attended the Union grounds yesterday to satisfy themselves and enjog the game. The crowd, although so large, was exceedingly orderly; but this ts not a matter of such special occasion with metropolitan assem blages as to require noting, only as it bas often bee: stated that to obtain a fau-minded crowd “ap the river” is almost an impossibility. plaint can possibly be made by the Unions with re gard to the umpire, the crowd or’the ground, and ag they were badly “thrashed” it will readily pe per ceived that thrashing was on the merits of the game itself, They could not hit Walters with any degree of safety or weight, while the Mutuals batted mag- nificently; hard hits and sate ones were the Mutual style, and by commencing the game with a determi- naton to hit in that way, and to follow it up roperly at all points, they soon placed themseives far envugh ahead to have little or no fear of the final result. ‘To attempt to give the details of the game would be almost a fruitiess task; sutice it to say thas the Mutuals worked with a determination to offset their exhibition at Troy, ana they did it well, Swan- dell and Galvin excebed in deid on the Mutual side, and 5S.

Mr. Walker, being an expert pitcher, should certainly have a correct appreciation ot @ fair pitch. Mr. Venfield, of the Unions, played at third base at the opening of the game, but i" the third innings he received an injury to one of his fine gers which obliged him to withdraw.” Mr. Bonker Was substituted and the game proceeded quietly and slowly to tie close, Wen the score stood as follows:— MOT Te BOR.

The umpire in this case decided in accord- ance with the “spirit” and general acceptation of the rule and in strict accordance with the iaw as 1% stood last season; but the wording of the rule, as amended, leaves him no alceruative but to reverse his decision in the matter, His error was noi aw error of jadgment, but Was contrary to the “stries letter of the law,’ Which was 30 much harped on in regurd to the decision by the Judiciary Committee last year in the Athietic-Atlantic diniculty.
