Our Weekly Budget.
absorbing an interest . Frenchmen , however , certainly do not relish the action of our government . The Great Northern powers are very reticent on the subject , nor do their official organs give us any clue to the views they hold . On Wednesday , a balloon accident occurred in France , by which the
passengers , including the celebrated aeronaut M . Godard , sustained all of them injuries of a more or less serious character . The news from America refers principally to the President ' s message , which , considering the rumours afloat as to serious differences between Spain and the United States ,
on the subject of the insurrection in Cuba , was looked forward to with some interest . However , General Grant ' s utterances are of a reassuring character , and there seems to be not the slightest danger of any interruption to the amicable relations prevailing between the two countries . While ,
on the one hand , President Grant thinks it more than probable that Spain may fail in putting down the insurrection in Cuba ; ho is also of opinion that the insurgents deserve not to be acknowledged as belligerents , having thus far given no evidence of their ability to establish anything
like a government . The other important point in General Grant's message referred to the resumption of specie payments . The state of affairs remains unchanged in Spain . The Carlist and Alphonsist armies still confront each other , but in consequence of the weather , military operations
appear to be postponed indefinitely . A Carhst courtmartial has sentenced Saballs , one of his generals , to deprivation of his military and civil rank , and four years imprisonment . The annual festival in connection with the Russian Military Order of St . George has been celebrated
at St . Petersburgh . Tho Czar presided at the banquet , and proposed the health of the Emperors of Germany and Austria , who are both members of the Order . The Czar ' s speech is said to have caused some excitement in French political circles , yet the speech , as reported , contains nothing
which will explain the excitement . There is little to report as to the insurrection in the Herzegovina . An engagement was reported to have taken place some time since between
the insurgents and the Turkish troops , under Raouf Pacha , with a loss of 10 , 000 to the latter . It turns out , however , the loss is only 1 , 000 , and further news , perhaps , may still further diminish this number .
The regular monthly meeting of the Royal Masonic Institution for Ao ; ed Freemasons and the Widows of Freemasons was held on Wednesday , the 8 th instant , at Freemasons' Hall , Great Queen Street . Bro . Lieut . Col . Creaton V . P . in the chair . The Secretary , Bro . Jas . Terry ,
