By mati from Europe we have the following de- tails of our cable telegrams to the oth of October:— ‘The London News, of the 0th of October, reporung the transactions on Change the day previous, says:— ‘Phere was a decline in the securities of the Atlan. tic and Great Western, Lilinow Central and Erie Ktaiiwaya. The realwation of the latter are sald to he chiefly for account of bankers in America, in- cluding some of those who were prominently en- gaged in the late gambling Movement in gold. A Paria journal of the 9th of October asserts: — Speculation has been rife in some political circles a4 vo the possible consequences of a more friendly ing between Austria and North Germany, a3 & wequel to the vistt paid by the hereditary Prince of bave Prussia fo the Court of Vienna, We reason to believe that this visit can- nob be considered as having stricuy politcal character. It puts an end to a very critical s/fuation between the Cabinets of Berlin aud Vienna, wd 40 far it can oniy contribute to the consolida- of peace. But is cannot lead to any change In cue line of conduct of those two Powers in respect io Germany. fa France, of Paris, of the %th of October, ex- piains:— \ kind of paper war has recently been carried on re.ative LO an {nsurance said to have been efected on feof the Prince Imperial.

Lord Stanley, M.P., eldest son of the Eari of Derby, in Liver- pool, October 7. A number of English workingmen have formed themselves into @ limited company, the Industrial Building and Co-operative Company, and have finished the erection of a pile of butldings for the hew iron works of Messrs. Clay, toman & Co., near Birkenhead. These works were visited and examined by Lord Stanley, and their svmpletion celebrated by a publio dinner in Liver- pool, at which hia lordabip was present, Mr. O'Dowd, joluer, ana chairman of the Industrial Building Com- pany, presiding, During his after dinner speech Lord Stanley sai I will avold ali controverted matter, 80 far as I can, but tt ts my duty to speak plainly and frankly, and not only tliat, bat to do so is to pay you the best com- plunentin my power.

(Loud cheers), THE SUEZ CANAL the Opening. LONDON, Oct. 0, 1849, ‘The interest which haa all along been felt in this great work continues w increase as the day of com- pletion draws near, But chres weeks’ work now remain to be done before the canal will, is ta sald, be ready to receive the largest steamers engaged in the Mediterranean and Lidia-China service through- out tts entire length.

The Presi dentess introduced Mrs, CuuRCHILL, WnO read the report of the Khode Island Woman Suffrage Asso- clation, She said that the association had no inten- tion of opposing the New England associations or doing anything antagonistic to them, but tt was deomed necessary to keep themselves perfectly dia- tinct, for a time at least, from other bodies having the same objects in view, She then read the follow- ing as the constitution of the association, which was duly voted upon and adopted: ARrioLe 1.—This organization shall be called the Rhode Inland Woman Suffrage Asaoctation, Ant. 2.—Its object shall be to secure the ballot to the women of the nation on equal termy with the men.
