London. The Queen has postponed her in tended visit to the Continent. Indisposition is given officially as (he reason for the postponement, but is is believed that the real reason is the disturbed political outlook. It ia considered significant that the Queen entertained Baron Conrcel, the French Ambassador, and Sir ' Thos. Sanderson, Permanent Under- . Secretary for the Foreign Office, at
dinner in the absence of Lord Balisbury, Prime Minister, who is suffer- ( ing from influenza. J The Queen's indisposition is not i serious. Owing to the unsettled condition of affdirs abroad, serious perturba- ' tions have taken place in Wall street ; (the New York Exchange) circles, \ and also on the Paris and London Exchanges. ( Spanish stocks have fallen 8 per \ nent.. Consols ■£ per cent., and , twenty colonial issues have fallen : from £ to 1 per cent, Her Majesty has so far recovered as to be able to take a drive, and will start for Nice on Thursday if the gale now raging in the Channel has abated.
