LATEST QUOTATIONS FROM THE GREAT MONEY "CHANGES—CONDITION OF THE ENGLISH STOCK MARKET—EXCITEMENT AND PANIC— DECLINE IN FOREIGNS WITH THE EXCEPTION OF AMERICANS. Loxpos, April 15, 1876. On tho Stock Exchango there has been much excitement in the foreign stock market dur- * img the week, principally owing. to the un- settled state of affuirs in Eastern Europe, while the ‘panic has been heightened by unfounded rumors rela- tive to the non-payment of the Egyptian coupons due ‘this month. Although there was a sharp recovery in prices on Thursday, yet the extent of the previous loss ig by no means made uy, and the week's operations show a serious reduction in prices. FORRIGNS. Egyptian securities have been indiscriminately sold, and are from 6 to 18 lower; Buenos Ayres 5 to 7 lower, Peruvian 4 to6 lower, Hungarian 4 to 5 lower, Russmn 2 to3 lower, Spanish % to 24% lower, Uraguayan 2 Jower, and Turkish %{ to 2 lower. Most of the securi- ties in this department have been quoted at the lowest point ever touched. CONSOLS, Consols have been dull, RAILWAYS, British railway shares have been rather heavy, in syinpathy with the foreign markets, but the move- ments are unimportant. AMERICANS, American government bonds have been steady. piscounT.

TWO MEN KILLED AND SEVERAL WOUNDED BY A SHELL OUT OF THK SUNKEN REBEL MERRIMAC, Nonvoux, Va, April 15, 1876. A dreadfal catastrophe occurred at tho Portsmouth wood dock this morning. For several days the wreckers have been engaged in taking up from Craney Island Bend the remains of the famous Confederate iron-clad Merrimac, and among the debris were a went down with the formidable ship fourteen years ago, This material is usualiy brought to Portsmouth and deposited in the warehouse. Yesterday the wreckers brought up a quantity of shell, and this morning commenced moving it to the warehouse, The movement attracted the atten- tion of a number of lightermen One of them, James Bass, proposed to examine the :condition of the powder im the shells, He selected a round nine inch missile baving fuso and cap. detached, and emptied a portion of the powder on the ground ina train about twelve inches long. He then deliberately struck a match and fired the train. THK RPPECT WAS PERPROTLY TERRIFIC, producing the wildest consternation, and jarring the néighborhood tor balfa mile round with the stunping roar of a field mortar, while fragments of the sholl were scattered in different directions a dozon biccks away. When the smoke cleared away two negroes were found dead. James Bass had one-half of his neck carried away, on the ieft side, and Benjamin Beverley had an enormous hole torn through his right breast. Zachariah Perkins was whirled against Ure house by the concussion, and had his face and neck cut by tlying tragmen' Lewis Johnson, who was standing Uifty yards away, was thrown down and con- siderably stunned, In a few moments people poured down to the whari to witness the horrible spectacle until the dock was hter- ally crowded. Un examination it was found that the results of the explosion, aside from the sanguinary horror, were startling, and the wonder is that more lives were not lost. A tragment of the shell swept into tho crowd of people in the fish market and, strange to say. only tore down an awning; another piece was driven through the office of the Seaboard and Roanoke Railroad depot, and im different parts of the city and across the river houses were struck. The dead bodies were disposed of by the Coroner and the wounded by she doctors. COXSTERNATION AMONG THE MISSOURI CON- SPIRATORS—STARTLING REVELATIONS THBEAT- ENED. Sr. Louris, Mo., April 15, 1876, A special despatch from Jefferson City states that all the crooked whiskey ringsters sentenced by United States Judge Krekel at that place to-day are confined m the jail to-night, J. W. Bittinger, who is sentenced to the Penitentiary, is very stoical. He has sppealed to President Grant for apardon, Bittinger says he is in possession of infor- mation which will involve people in the Whiskey Ring whose good names have not yet been tarnished. Wilkinson, recently captured in San cisco, will arrive in Jefferson City Monday morning, and willim- mediately be put on trial e government has a strong case against him. ‘The United States Marshal will leave here to-morrow morning for Jefferson City in charge of General John McDonald and W. D. Avery, who are to be placed in the Penitentiary without delay. Avery is vory bitter in denunciation of those who have brought about his conviction. He persists in saying that he was badly defended his attorneys, and that it he had known how serious his cause was ho would bare employed counsel who could have easily secured his acquittal. He says Judge Treat would have granted him a new trial he not been unduly influ- enced py Judge Dillon.

How the Oriental Spectre Looks from the British Metropolis. THE CZAR’S THREAT. Turkey Will Arm the Mohammedans and Stop Payment. EASTER FESTIVITIES The Great Anglo-German Polo Match at Berlin, Successful Debut of an American Prima Donna at Covent Garden Last Night. [SPECIAL DESPATCH TO THE HERALD BY CABLE. | Lonpon, April 15, 1876, The Oriental spectre which has been abroad dur- ing the week has been making general havoc on the European Bourse, AUSTRIA'S WARNING AN INSULT TO RUSSIA. The attitude of the Herzegovinan insurgents causes much alarm in political circles. General Rodich, Governor of Dalmatia and Austrian Commis- sioner, having failed in mediating between the Turks and the insurgents, has warned the latter against expecting any support from Russia, whereupon the Russian press turns upon him and angrily construes the warning as an insult to Russia, The Austrian press takes the matter up in turn and adds to the turmoil by attacking Russia. THE CZAR'S THREATENED ABDICATION. This growing antagonism between these two great Powers sufMiciently explains the agitation on the various bourses. And when we consider by the light of recent events the fact that the Czar has de- clared whenever Russian interests demand war with the great Powers he will abdicate the throne, there is a still further cause for anxiety. Indeed, there now appears to be a very general fear in Lon- don that war is imminent. TURKEY'S THREAT TO ARM THE MOHAMMEDANS. The HERALD correspondent at Vienna telegraphs to-night that he has received reliable advices from Constantinople to the effect that the Sublime Porte intends, if driven to extremes, to arm the Moham- medan popuiation, and declare it their determina- tion to postpone all payments of interest on debts until after the restoration of peace. JOHN BULL IN EGYPT. It is almost impossible to unravel the skein of Egyptian finance, but it is certain that the Khedive means to remain master in his own house. So England, viewing the failure of the Franco-Italian negotiations, is now drawing a breath of relief and chuckling over the flasco. But the laugh cannot be considered on the side of the English. Lord Palmer- ston energetically opposed the construction of the Suez Canal, whiie Disraeli has spent $20,000,000 to combat French domination in Egypt; and if the re- cent negotiations had not failed a heavy and per- haps disastrous blow would have been dealt the English Ministry. GREAT FALL IN EUROPEAN SECURITIES, ‘This has been a week of terrible uneasiness on the London Exchange. The settlements necessary be- fore the Easter holidays have restricted business, but haye not prevented @ heavy fallin nearly all kinds of foreign securities. Egyptian, Turkish, Russian, Austrian, Hungarian, those from the Danubian principalities—all have been more or leas affected by the panic in Vienna. AMERICAN SHARES AND BONDS, Investors evince great timidity. American stocks are the chief feature of the market. There was a slight fall in Erie Railway shares; otherwise our general securities remained firm. “Governments” receded a trifie. EASTER HOLIDAYS. It being Easter, the whole country seems to be holiday making. Thousands of “country cousins” have invaded London, while the everyday Londoner, in accordance with his usual custom, has left the city smoke and dust for the pure air of the country and seaside. Bank clerks and business men gener- ally, after leaving their offices this afternoon, will not return to the city again until Tuesday morning. THE NATIONAL VOLUNTEER REVIEW. One of the principal features of outdoor amuse- ment on Monday will be the annual volunteer re- view, which this year is to take place at Brownlow Park, Berkhampstead. es We are also to have two days of polo—viz., on Monday and Tuesday—at Stanford Park, Brighton. THE BERLIN MATCH. Speaking of polo, I am reminded that the Berlin match, which was reported to have been abandoned, is now reaffirmed and will certainly come off. It seems that some few newspapers attempted to throw cold water on the proposed match, owing, they stated, to the inability of the people on the Continent to anderstand English fleld sports. These critics thought that the Berlin military would laugh at the spectacle of crack English oficers, in civilian dreas, galloping and whirling about on little ponies. THIRTY-EIGHT ENGLISH OFFICERS TO PARTICIPATE. | The Court Journal of to-day says, however, that all the necessary arrangements have been completed, and that thirty-eight polotsts will leave for Germany travelling by special trains, &c., the whole distance, GERMAN OFFICERS LEARNING THE GAME. ‘The Germans are evidently deeply interested, for we learn that the army officers at Berlin are very | busy learning the game. A MATCH FOR ALL NATIONS. Moreover, next year a German team is to visit England and compete in a match which {s to be open | to the army officers of all nations. THEATRICAL NOVELTIES FOR EASTER. Easter always marks the production of numerous theatrical novelties, To-night Offenbach’s “Voyage to the Moon” is to be given at the Alhambra. “Struck Ol" Is the sensation at the Adelphi. The Westminster Aquarium Theatre opens to-night also, with Jenny Lee as Joe. Collier's comic opera, entitled “Sultan Moocha,” Tennyson's “Queen Mary” ia to be given at the Lyceum on Tuesday. Rossi and Janauschek com- mence this week. New Easter spectacles will also be presented at the Bristol and Alexandra. Alto- gether we are to have a most interesting Easter dramatic dish, GREAT SUCCESS OF AN AMERICAN DEBUTANTE AT COVENT GARDEN. ‘The greatest crent of interest for Americans headquarters will be estab- was the acne of Mile. Rosabella (Miss Blanche Tucker), an American, -at Covent Garden to- night as Violetta in “La Traviata.” It was & great and pronounced success. It was con- sidered rather daring of our fair young country wo- man to make her début in a rdle in which Patt has 80 long sung supreme, and that, too, in this very theatre. Rosabella’s self-posseasion, that peculiar characteristic of the American girl, on her first ap- pearance was most remarkable, and appeared to gain for her immediately the kindly sympathies of le the fashionable and well filled house. HER FIRST APPLAUSE. Immediately she invested herself with much of the sang roid of an accomplished actress. At first her voice betrayed all the nervousness usual with a débutante, but she soon recovered, and toward the end of the first act the facile quatity of her voice was apparent, and she was called before the curtain to receive genuine, sympathetic applause from the entire audience, accompanied with numerous foral tributes. THE DRINKING SONG, “LIBIAMO,”” was well tided over, but the aria, “Ah, fors e lui,” and the rest of the trying scene of the first act was wonderfully executed, considering her youth and imexperience. During the celebrated duet, “Parigi O Cara,” though her voice was fair, the fair débutante showed some sigus of weak- ness, but the last scene she acted after the manner of an accomplished prima donna. Then she was again called before the curtain to receive addi- tional and well deserved applause, HER MANY FRIENDS AT HOME will be glad to learn that her success was a very genuine one. She will repeat the rdle again on Tues- day next. She is also studying the r0le of Venus in “Tannhauser.” Rosabdella ts the first native born American that has ever made a début at Covent Garden. I hear that another American, Mary Kemble, will play here on the 26th inst., in the character of Volante in the “Honeymoon,” at the Gaiety, to Gene- vieve Ward’s Jullana, “ LIEUTENANT CAMERON'S BOOK.

If Preakness does well Mate runs for the City and Suburban Stakes, SCRATCHED. Bay Eagle is much out of condition.

Curcaco, Iil., April 15, 1876, Ata meeting of the managers of tho pool last even- ing the committee appointed to make a table of dis- tances for Eastern rates made a report, which was adopted. The committee reported that they were un- able to devise any vian by which uniform rates could be maintained, and, therefore, did not recommend any. This decision was reached in consequence of the fact that the Grand Trunk Railroad would act inde- pendently of the pool. A new classification of freights was also arranged. Most of the articles recent: placed in the jal class were put baci the fourth class, nd this no important cha: were made, FLOODS IN .NORTHERN MICHIGAN, Derrorr, April 15, 1876.

It was there the one of 1867 stood. It is to be hoped that we shall not have such a gasometer as the building of the 1867 exhibition to gaze on for a whole year. You are doubtless be- ginning to feel in America what it is to see every- where you turn a picture of the Centennial Exhibi- tion, and can, therefore, comprehend what it must have been for all France and half Rurope to have the ghost of the Universelle Exposition gasometer on medals, match boxes, almanacs, dead walls, books, pamphlets—everywhere, in fact.

THE MONAMMEDAN RULERS, ‘The picture given to the world by the rulers of the Mussulmans is not very pleasant to look upon. Abdul Aziz, the Sultan, has become sulky and apathetic in face of the insolvency which impends over him. The Khedive is suspected of stock job- bing. In these days, when everybody is suspected of something, perhaps this will not be looked on as a grievous fault, but its effect on Egyptian finance 1s likely to be bad. PARLIAMENTARY HOLIDAYS. Allover Europe, and wherever they posseas the article, Parliaments have taken holidays for the Eastertide, and this makes @ not undesirable lull in the rush and whirr of legislation. A NEW OPERA. M. Serpette’s new opera, “Le Moulin Wert,” was produced at the Bouffes Parisiennes on Thursday last. It treats of the gallant epoch of Louis Quinze. The plot is woven out of a court intrigue involving Mme. de Pompadour. The opera is full of charming melodies and has proved an unequivocal success. ARRAH NA POGUE IN FRENCH. On the same night the French version of “Arrah na Pogue,” entitled “Jean la Poste,” was produced at the Porte St. Martin. This version was first brought out in Paris in 1868 at the Gafté, where it had quite a run. The translation is clever, many of even the verbal jokes being preserved with considerable ingenuity. In the trial scene, for instance, where, in the original, Shaun is asked if his name is not the Irish for John, he re- plies, “No, John is the English for Shaun.” In the translation he is asked if “Jean is not the Irish (:) } for John,” which produces a laugh. Though produced under the superintendence of, Boucicanlt the piece is sadly deficient in local color, but it has been fairly successful nevertheless, “PICCOLINO.”” Gounod's new opera, “Piccolino,” is having a great success at the Opéra Comique, particularly since the libretto has been retrenched.
