The London News discredits all disquieting rumours about the progress of the arbitration at Geneva.

LONDON, August 12. —The United States steamer Wabash has been aground twice within the past few days, the first time near osborne. She was hauled off by the Shen doah r>nd Wachusett. On neither occasion she received serious damage. Lonbon, August 14th.—Mr Munclella, speaking to his constituents at Sheffield last night concerning the difference between England and America on indirect claims, highly praised the course of the British Go vernment as well as its attitude, and con gratulated his hearers upon the removal of the differences between the two countries by the acquiescence of America in the decision of the Tribunal of Arbitration in reference to the indirect claims. The (meeting of the British Geographical Association commenced to-day at Brighton. .ri) dock. "*\ address the Association on his - -T^ni Among those already Impose of hearing Stanley it> o X _Emperor Napoleon. Eugene is also A letter from Sydney Young states that Lord Tenderden asked him and Cohen to I proceed to Geneva solely to make an explana tion of interests to the crown on the sub- j ject of American claims for damages caused hy Confederate cruisers, in case any became necessary. New York, August 14.—A South ampton lotter says that when General Sherman was visiting the American lleet he received, through the Prince of Wales, a message from the Queen inviting him, Commodore Al.den, and other officers of the fleet to Osborne, at her reception. London, August 14.—The Hon. Russell Gurney and William Smith, sailed to-day for America in the steamship Moravian. Gurney returns to resume his seat in the American and British .Joint Claims Commission, which meets at Newport next month ; and Smith, the well-known newsdealer of London, will make a tour of Canada and the United States. j

The United States steamers Wabash, Brooklyn and Plymouth have arrived in the Thames and have anchored at Gravesend. The Wachusett is expected to arrive before night. All that is known of the movement of the fleet is that the flagship Wabash will soon sail for Norway, with Admiral Alden, tnil that the Shenandoah will take Schencsj at Havre.

Emigration from East and1 West Prussia, and from the Duchy of Mecklenburg has become so serious an evil that the authorities are exerting themselves to the utmost to abate the drain it exercises on the agricultural population. Whole villages, formerly in habited by a well-to-do peasantry, are now desolate and falling into ruin ; large districts

of land lie xineultivated for want of hands to guide the plough and ply the spade. The North and Soiith American emigration agents have swept off whole tribes of hardy Wends and Low Germans—manifesting con siderable ingenuity in inventing inducements to decoy these unsophisticated boors away from their native land.

COMMERCIAL.

New York, August 5, 1872.—The past month has proved to be the dullest that Aye have experienced in a long period. The steamer Dakota will proceed directly t*> San Francisco instead of Melbourne 9 as before announced. Mr Webb was led to this owing to the news by the last mail, announcing the withdrawal of subsidies by one of the Colonies. The Dakota went on her trial trip on the Ist instant, and gave entire satisfaction, proving herself a staunch and fast vessel. She is similar to the Nebraska in all respects except in cabin accommodation, which are superior to that ship. Wool. —The wool market remained very

quiet until about the middle of the past month, -when a moderate demand sprung up and continued until the close of last week. The sales embraced, nearly all descriptions, but prices realised were lower than have been at any time current of the present year. While scarcely anything has been done in ne fleeces our manufacturers have taken Australian, Port Philip, and New Zealand, Montevideo and Cape, and we cannot look for active movements in fleece until holders are willing to meet the market at prices corresponding to current rates for foreign The London sale closed on the 31st with a strong comijetition and full prices—l7(l for choice, and 15-id average. The quantity taken for this side is noo yet known, but will not be far from 7,000,CC0 to 8,0( O,C Yd pounds, and most of this will not be available until October next, when the 10 percent, additional duty is removed on indirect imports. There is, however, considerable wool on direct importation now avaPable at the reduced duty of 10 per cent., and we look for an active market, and holders, although firm, are free sel'ers at the current rates. The principal transactions in Port Philip and New Zealand have been at 57 to 60c, and on most of. this wool it is claimed that the shrinkage will not exceed 4o to ;j0 per cent. The recorded sales in this market are 4CO bales New Zealand on private terms. At Boston the reported sales are 200.C30 pounds Port Philip and New Zealand, in bond, equal to 57 to 58c. ; 35,400 pounds Australian and New Zealand at 5G to GOc. ; 337,000 pounds New Zealand at 54 to GOc. ; 112,0C3 pouiid do. on private terms; 50,C00 pounds clos choice at 60c. New Zealand flax is very quiet, in sym pathy with Manilla hemp, which governs the fibre market. I quote 9£c, gold. JNo sales. . Gum kauri continues very quiet. ±he re ported sales are 349 cases on the spot and 900 cases to arrive, all on private terms. - London advices to July 25. New Zealand Hemp (Flax) has met less demand at lower rates. Sales G7O bales middling half-cleaned to three parts cleaned £33 to £35 15s ; middling to good clean, £M 10s to £38 ; good to fine cleaned, £3o to fciJ 10s Kauri Gum had met a better demand at steady rates.

I^TER-COLONIAL AND INTER- I gPROVINCIAL MATCHES, WEL j LINGTON, ' To the Editor of the Evening Stab! I Sir, — Some time ago there was I forwarded from Wellington an invi | tation from the Regatta Committee Ito all the provinces to send repre sentative crews to compete in an inter colonial and inter-provincial gig race, to be j held there some time in February, 1873. J I now see by the papers a programme ; published of all the matches ; the prizes are extremly liberal, and ought to draw a numerous gathering of boating people I from all parts of .New Zealand. I have been asked by a gentleman from the South whether Auckland intends this time to send a crew down, or whether they intend to allow the above matches to be pulled without having any one there to represent Auckland ? I think, Mr Editor, that it is high time something was done in the matter. If several of our leading citizens were to take the matter iv hand there j would be little difficulty in getting to ' gether a crew who would uphold the I honour of Auckland in these matches. ; I would propose that a few of our leading mercantile men do request the Mayor of Auckland to preside at a public meeting, which I feel confident would bo well attended ; the matter could then be dis cussed at length. Should the meeting decide to send a crew to represent Auck- j land, and place the matter in the hands of a feiv gontlemen well qualified to carry out the details, such as selection of men, ; boats, &c, I think the public would ; subscribe liberally towards defraying the expenses. The Aucklanders are never \ backwards in subscribing towards any sport providing they know it has been placed in the hands of competent people. I hope and trust this matter will be taken up in earnest by the people j of Auckland, and that we shall not be the only province in New Zealand left un represented, and be made a regular laugh ing stock, as we were at the last Canter- ; bury meetings. In conclusion I hope ! some abler pen than mine will write ' through the medium of our newspapers, ; and impress the Auckland public with an idea that something must be done, and that quickly.—l am, &c, Aquatic.
