Journ (SPECIAL DESPATCH TO THE HERALD BY CABLE. ] Lonpoyn, Noy, 15, 1875, The opening of the forty-sixth session of the Royal Geographical Society took place to-day. Sir Henry Rawlinson presided. AFRICAN AUTHORITIES PRESENT. There was a great assemblage of African authorities and there could not have been less than 1,000 persons present. STANLEY'S MAP EXHIBITED. An enlarged copy of Stanley's map of the tountry he has explored and his recent dis- soveries on the Victoria Niyanza Lake was exhibited and attracted marked attention from the competent judges present. GRANT'S REPORT ON STANLEY. A report on Stanley's discoveries, pre- pared by Major James Augustus Grant, the celebrated African traveller and co-laborer of Speke, will be delivered on the 29th inst. SIR HENRY RAWLINSON’S DISCOURSE, Sir Henry Rawlinson, in the course of a long and able discourse, gave a graphic ac- count of Stanley’s journey, narrating at length the difficulties and dangers he had to encounter and the unconquerable resolu- tion and tenacity of purpose which enabled him to bring his exploration to a triumphant success. STANLEY'S TRIUMPH, He characterized it in emphatic terms as decidedly the most important and success- ful exploration of the year, nd as giving Stanley s title to rank with the Lesoecaall explorers. JOURNALISTIC MUNIFICENCE. He concluded by saying he was desirous of drawing attention to the extraordinary munificence of the New York Henarp and the London Daily ‘Telegraph in fitting out Stanley’s exploring expedition at their own expense. PUBLIC INSTITUTIONS SHAMED. Such munificence, he said, puts to shame our public institutions. By enabling the undaunted Stanley to accomplish his great work geographical science has received a lasting benefit, and an impetus has been given to African exploration that must soon produce practical results to commerce and civilization. THE HERALD AND TELEGRAPH THANKED. We can only express the feelings of the Royal Geographical Society by recording our warmest thanks to the proprietors of the Heratp and Telegraph for the eminent | services they have rendered to geography.

THE BRITISH CORN MARKET, THE MARK LANE EXPRESS’ WEEKLY REVIEW— INFLUENCE OF THE STORMY WEATHER, Loxpon, Noy. 15, 1875. “The Mark Lane Express, this evening, in its regular weekly review of the British corn market, has the fol- lowing :— The recent unfavorable weather has much impeded field work, which was already mach in arrear, Tho condition of samples has considerably deteriorated, ‘This, with a continuance of heavy foreign supplies, has militated against the price of wheat. Several markets have declined Ls. per quarter, while all are more or less dull. At Paris the best wheat, owing to the fow offers, has advanced 1s, per quarter, Complaints come from the home market as well as from those of Holland, Belgium and Germany, of short deliveries, with hardening prices. In Austria the wintry weather and the generally short supplies have occasioned a rise in wheat of from 1s, to 1s, 6d per quarter, Should the present early frosts herald a severe and long winter, we must expect to witness an advance in prices, note withstanding the present hardness of granary stock, MEXICAN BANDITTI.

Younge; General Hawley, President of the Centennial Comi nission; Mr. John Welsh, Mr, Thomas Cochrane, Mr. Clement’ N. Biddle, of the Centennial Board of Finance, and Mr. Schwarta- mann, the chief architect of the Exhibition buildings, were also on the ground to receive the strangers. The party was escorted through the ground and were shown over the mammoth _ build- ings, which were eaplamed and described by the gentlemen of the Commission. This was a work of much time, so that when the party reached Strawberry Mansion, in the East Park, it was after four o'clock. Here a bountiful collation awaited the company, all of whom doubtless brought good appetites. r. Charles Platt, of the Philadelphia Underwriters, presided and welcomed the New Yorkers in a short and appropriate speech. After the good things had been done justice to the President of the United States Centennial Commis- sion was called for,” General Hawley described the organization of the Centennial Commission, its purposes, its early struggles and its present needs, He satd the great burden of this enterprise, which belongs to the country, has fallen upon Philadelphians, Ninety per cent of the money has been paid by them, Youn ought to be ashamed of it. (Applause.) The citizens of Philadelphia aloue have given $1,500,000. I cannot too strongly remind you that this is a national work, nota local one, The honor and faith of the whole coun- try isat stake, We have under roof some sixty acres of flooring, more than twice as much as any previous exhibition ever had. We have not fooled away any money extravagantly, but we have magnificent build- ings." (Applause.) We: have first consulted their use, then we have added as much of grace and beauty as we could aiford, These buildings are going up. ‘Thirty- eight nations of the world are coming here, See the students and the thoughtful men of the world who are. coming to study our progress and civiliza- tion, ‘The government — olficers, literary men, political economists, engineers, artists, “mechan- tes and the scientific men’ of the universe are coming to study us curiously. They feel very kindly towards the nation that brags 80 much and they are coming to look at a world's wonder, How shall we receive them? What shall we show them? We have challenged the world and how are we going to meet it. You, who are men of the Stock Exchange, the bank, insurance office, [may talk business to you. It is pleasant to go on flattering your national vanity, but there is one little word that tells just what we need— money. We need $1,500,000 more to finish our work. Gentlomen, I say plamly, that I hope you will subscribe and that’ you will induce your neighbors to subscribe. (Applause.) We are not begging of the government. We do not ask them to give us acent; we hope they will, but whether they do or not we want to kuow Within fifteen days alter their mecting. If they do not we want to Knowil, Then we will go to the people with that appeai which we are making to you, (Applause) With a few words of the most enthusiastic eulogium, which were received with deafening applause, General Hawley called upon Mr. Jobn Welsh, Mr. Welsh said that his colleagues had not received that support which they hoped to have. They had not as yet, but they had hoped a bet- ter time was coming,-and from all sections of the Union it had seemed that was coming now. This work, he said, is yours as much as ours. It is anational affair, not a local one. The Exhibition is to be a work of such magnitude that I quake when I think of i, The fact that all the world is coming here to examine and compare us is appreciated by us if it has not been by you. Ifthe circumstances do not jus- tify an appeal to you I do not know what would. Task of you, gentlemen, whether we are not entitled to your heartiest and best possible aid. (Applause.) He hoped Congress would help. It was the only thing necessary to give ita truly national character, They had pau tor vorything as fur as they had gone, but additional re- tions were coming in. The magnificent art gallery that was thought to be large enough to accommodate the world, the issioners had within a few days decided to be not more than half large enough and had ordered a large addition, Other expenses were caming in and patriotism should dictate liberality, Mr. D. A. Heald, Vico President of the New York Roard of Fire Underwriters, being called upon to say what the feeling in New York was, said that, to answer truthfully, he must say that New York was in the con- dition of Bunyan’s map, trying to rake a penn outof the muck, While the heavens were glistening with gold, They were so far removed in time and dis- tance that they really did not know what was doing in Philadelphia, He admitted with shame that, while tolerably familiar with ancient history and underwrit- ing, he had been utterly ignorant of the condition of the Centennial movement. (Applause and laughter.) He said that New York was not awaro of the impor- tance and urgency of the case. They must be urged. ‘The gentlemen present must help in every way in their power by individual subscriptions, by inducing their companies to purchase stock, by demanding that Con- gress should appropriate money to aid it. He appealed to the patriotism of his hearers, said thatevery American had a better right to be proud of his freedom and of his glorious country than the man of any other nation ever had, aud that, therefore, they should help to celebrate its Centennial fittingly. Geo W. McLean, President of the New York Stock Exchange, said that he had felt the greatest interest in the work. He regretted exceedingly that {t was not in the power of the body that he represented t@ subscribe to Centennial stock as a body, but he know the feeling of its members, and that they would always be ready ‘aud anxious to'aid the work in any way. The New York brokers probably made more money, lost more and spent more than any other body of men in the world. Our hands, said he, are always in our pockets (“Or somebody else's”? said some one, at which there was unbounded laughter and applause). In conclusion he enid that he was sure that when he went home and re- ported what he had seen the members of the New York Stock Exchange would subscribe liberally. ‘At about eight o'clock the company drove into the city and repaired to the Continental Hotel, to perfect an organization for the purpose of aiding the Centennial movement, aad having the bodies with which they are connected represented at the Exhibition, The visitors will return to New York to-day. The result of their visit has been to demonstrate the national character of ihe work; to inspire them with the necessity of assist- ing the gentiemen who have so nobly borne the brunt of it; and. it i8 confidently expected from the great wealth and importance of interests represented that the contributious of which the Centennial Commisston- ers areso much in need will be speedily forthcoming. It is best to state, lest there should be misunderstand- ing, that the visitors were the guests of the Philaael- phia brokers and insurance men; none of the expenses of this or similar entertainments come out of the Cen- tennial funds.

THE TREATY OF 1795 VIOLATED. | Termination of the Insurrection To Be Forestalled, ANOTHER, CALL FOR BONDS. FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT. Wasuinotoy, Noy. 15, 1875, That there could be anything of a warlike nature in the communication of Minister Cushing to the Spanish Government is a matter of great sur- prise in official circles here. At least, such is the profession of those who were questioned on the subject to-night. It bappened to bea poor night, however, for newspaper interviewers as, by a provoking coincidence, the several members of the Cabinet were dining out, except Mr. Fish, who was Secluded and ivisible on account of illness. Mr, Cad- walader, the Assistant Secretary of State, was unable to throw any light apon the occasion of the article in the London Times, Indeed, so much ignorance has been professed all along as to tho nature of Mr. Cushing’s recent note to the Spanish Cabinet that a suspicion has arisen that the President has acted upon his own impulses in the instructions given to our Minister at Madrid, The only hint of any other subject in the communication between the two governments was given in a press des- patch quite recently to the effect that Mr. Cushing had demanded of Spain a more explicit compliance With the treaty of 1795. This re- fers doubtless to article eleven of that treaty, the observance of which on the part of Spain in the Island of Cuba could be so unfavorably criticized by President Grant and the administration as to provoke a war. Article eleven of the treaty of 1795 reads as follows: — ‘The citizens and subjects of each party shall have wer to dispose of their personal goods within the Firisdiction of the other by testament, donation or otherwise, and their representatives, being subjects or citizens of the other party, shall succeed to their said personal goods, whether by testa- ment or ab inéestato, and they may take possession thereof, either by themselves or others ‘acting for them and dispose of the same at their will, paying such dues only as the inhabitants of the country wherein the goods are shall be subject to pay in like eases, And in case of the absence of the represen- tative, such cure shall be taken of the goods’ as of a native in hke case until the lawful owner may take measures for receiving them; and if questions shall arise among several ciain ts to which of them the said goods belong, the same shall be decided finally by the laws and judges of the land wherein the said goods are; and where, on tho death of any person holding real estate within the territories of the one party, such Teal estate would, by the laws of the land, descend on citizenor subject of the other, where he not dis- nalified by being an alien, such subjects shall be al- Jowed a reasotiable tine to sell the same and to with. draw the proceeds without moiestation and exempt from all rights of detraction ou the part of the govern- ment of the respective States. = * A glance at the wording of this article shows how the many alleged outrages upon Americans and their property in Cuba may be urged as infractions of good faith on the part of Spain, It is said that the President, to win éclat for his ad- ministration and to make a stirring feature in his noxt Message to Congress, has requested Mr. Cushing to draw the attention of Spain afresh to the mutual obli- gations of the above quoted article of the treaty and to the faithful observance of the obligation onthe part of the United States, gas shown in tho prompt and frequent suppression of so many filibuster- ing expeditions, It is conjectured that the President ‘was induced to take this step so asto head off an al- leged movement on the part of Spain to raise Cuba to the condition of a province and give the island an autonomy and equal representation in the Spanish Cortes, a political condition which would debar the United States from exercising any sympathy for the Cubans should they refuse to lay down their arma, Yhe opportanity of interference by the United States would be too late were this policy carried out by Spain, and hence the offensive natare of the demands presented by Mr. Cushing. That President Grant has been getting ready for an emergency has been already exposed in the Herawo's revelations about the navy, and the fact has pow come to light that he was occupied for about four hours last Friday in an interview by telegraph, with General Sherman at St. Louis, the use of a wire being given over to the exclusive trans- mission of the quesions and answers which passed be- tween the Commander-in-Chief and the General-in- Chief of the armies of the United States, IMMENSE CLAIMS AGAINST THE GOVERNMENT. The United States is a defendant in the Court of Claims for an amount exceeding $47,000,000. The principal item, about $16,000,000, is sued for by South- ere people on account of cotton confiscated or destroyed by the army during the war, THE GROWING APPRECIATION OF AMERICAN SECURITIES. ‘The sudden subscription of the foreign syndicate for nearly $13,000,000 more of the new fives, en- abling Acting Secretary of the Treasury Conant, to- day, to close the contract for the refunding of the bal- ance of $500,000,000 of the six per cents, 18 attributed to the demoralization of European invest- ments by the recent repudiation and bad faith of the Turkish government, GENERAL WASHINGTON DESPATCHES, eecietaalgaaaipatnt AND THIRTY-FINST CALIS FOR FIVE-TWENTY BONDS.

The various corps, numbering in all 900 men, will meet to-night at the drill sheds to be served with ammunition. Inan interview with Mr, Doutre this afternoon your corre- spondent learned that the general —_cortége would start at nine o’clock, and that it was hoped there would be no disturbauce, the display of force being a precautionary measure, It is impossible to ascertain from the municipal authorities what step they intend to take for the preservation of the peace. ‘The Chief of Police assured your correspondent that he knew no more about the matter than achild unborn. It is certain, however, that nearly the entire polico force of the city will be on the spot. Mayor Hingston, who has received assurances of support from the curés of parishes around Montreal, is hopeful that the inter+ ment will pass off quietly. THE BRIGADE ORDER. The following brigade order was read to the volun- teers this evening: — BriGave OrvERs,—No, 1.—The brigade will, in accord- ance with militia brigade orders of this day’s date, parade at the drill shed on Tuesday morning, at balt: past seven o'clock, to be in readiness to leave the Champ de Mars, at nine o'clock, in aid of the civil power, No. 2.—Great coats and haversacks, with twonty rounds of ammunition, will be served out, The men will provide themselves with one day’s cooked rations. No. 3.—The heutenant colonel commanding would wish most emphatically to impress on the minds of the mon of all ranks the serious responsibility with which they are invested in using the weapons in their power agamst their fellow citizens. Should it unfortunately be required to employ force it 1s scarcely on any occasion necessary that firing be em- ployed; and if the necessity should arise but a few files will be used, and these will be specifically named; but should necessity require a greater number it will be only on the order of the commanding officer or the officer named by him, The fire in all cases must be low, No. 4.—The ammunition served out will be in pack- ages, in no case to be broken until required for actual use.’ Officers commanding batteries will see to this and explain to the men that they will be held to a strict account for the ammunition served out to them. The order concludes with an expression of a hope that the men will justify the good opinion the public | entertain of them by their coolness, steadiness and gen- eral conduct, GOOD ACCOUNT EXPRCTED. The morale of the volunteers is good, and should there be trouble they will doubtless give a good account of themselves, PEAR OF BLOODSHED, Today Mr. Doutre went to the proprietors of the evening papers and obtained a promise from them not to publish anything to-day relating to the preparations for Guibord’s funeral, which takes place to-morrow at noon. Mr. Doutre fears that if the preparations aro ublished beforeband the rioters will take steps to Brass the procession and cause bloodshed. MOVING THM COURTS. Mr. Doutre this forenoon formally entered a writ in the Supreme Court calling on any one of the Judges of the Superior Court to issue an order for the funeral, ONLY A WOODEN COPFIN. Tt has been decided not to use the sarcophagus, and the body will be buried in a wooden coffin alone, | VIVE THOUSAND SPECTATORS. { The Commissioner of the Dorninion Pohce has ordered | out the miliary to the number of 965 men.

Mr. George Belmore, the English actor, who came t this country about three months ago to play Nat Gow ling, in the “Flying Scud,” died yesterday morning, about three otelock, at his residence in Fourth avenue, Mr, Bojmore was very ill at the time of his arrival, and during the first week of his engagement at Booth’s Theatre he scarcely possessed sufficient strength te sustain his part until the last trying scene'in the play was finished, ‘Subsequently he ratlied, however, and even had hopes that he would be able to return to Eng- land in (he spring to bring bis family with him to America; but his meagre strength began to fail him while he was playing in Brooklyn, and he was com- pelled to give up his Boston engagement altogether, On his return to this city he took to his bed, where his life slowly ebbed away, AU day yesterday he was in a Laif couscious state and scarcely recognized the friends who called him, Inthe evening he » his will and the scene is said to have been exceed: y pathetic, The only persons tn the room at the were his managers and counsel, with Mr. George Honey and Mr, H. J. Montague, He left all his property to his wife. The most pathetic incidents of this death seene occurred during the reading of the will prepar- atory to his signing it. When the words “to my wife Alice” were read to him by his counsel he raised bime self up in his bed, and clasping his hands in the attitude of prayer, wept bitterly, Those who were present were also moved to toa lisb, and Mr. H. his will. Mr. Belmore was born in England and at the time of his death he was forty-seven years old. His real name was Gee rstin and he was the grandson of James Carr, the stage dire the Kembles, Kean, Bilis ton, Wright and other celebrated players. He made his first appearance on the stage in the English provinces in 1848 and soon achieved popularity.

In the Hol born ed the part of Nat Gosling, in the “Flying ‘6 consecutive nights and then played’ the sinthe English provincial towns. The part was considered his greatest, but his first decided success was as Softy, im ‘Aurora yd." It was his success in this that induced Mr. Boucicault to seek him for Nat Gosling, when “The Flying Scud” was first produced, Mr. Belmore also made great hits in the personation of characters from Dickens—his Newman Noggs being almost as well known as “Nicholas Nickelby” itself. But the career ‘of the actor is over, and, saddest of all, he died in a for- eign land, away from the wife and children who will mourh the loss of a kind husband and loving father, It is understood that the funeral services will be held to-morrow, at Dr, Houghton’s church, in Twenty-ninth street, In accordance with his own request his re- mains will be sent to England, Messrs, Lester Wale lack, Harry Palmer, George Honey, William J.
