London.
A new torpedo destroyer has achieved a speed of 29£ knots on its trial trip, beating the record of those which have preceded it. The exhibits of colonial produce at the Cambridge Agricultural Show are only fairly satisfactory, and appear to have . been prepared too hurriedly. Borne of the wines are muddy. The general exhibits are limited, and are not representative. The Coptic's shipment of butter arrived in sound condition, and will be put into store. She is unable to discharge her meat owing the cold stores being glutted. Sixty thousand Scotch miners have struck. Parliament did not adjourn in consequence of President Carnot's death, as precedents did not permit such a course, though both sides of the House wished to do so. It is expected the Speaker and a deputation of members will attend the funeral, which will probably take place on Sunday.
