PROVISIONS LIVERPOOL, DEC. 22.—The market for beef is only moderately active. The dealers, though their stocks are unprecedently low, and with other circumstances tending to high prices, including the extreme figures paid this week by the government (210 lOs to £l2 per fierce) for their second contract, will only buy to supply present wants, hence but little progress has been made in sales of the new that has arrived. In prices there is no alteration. In pork there is not much activity, but the market is de- cidedly stronger in consequence of the extreme prices (29 17s 6d to £l3 per tierce, and £7 to £8 per barrel) paid for the second government contract. The sales of bacon for the week are of an extensive character, and include about 1,400 boxes taken at auction, and 600 boxes subse- quently, the latter for export to France. Advanced rates are now asked by the holders of the small remaining stock. There is more animation in lard, and the sales for the week exceed 250 tons, a considerable portion of which has been taken for France. For cheese there has been an improved demand, and considerable sales have been made, at an advance of about 2s per cwt. Linseed cake is dull and rather lower. ST.

notions of propriety to disturb the attention of our social amenities, rather than the stern realities of life—with any comments on the various questions which engender political strife, with any appeals s on Constitutional privileges, or with any remarks on the conduct of political or reli- might, indeed, content ourselves with enlarging on the• reflections which pious opponents a return of this auspicious season most appro- priately suggests, and refresh the memory of our readers by allusions to the particular duties which ertorm—thereby seizing the opportunity to counsel a remembrance of the object contemplated in the glad tidings of " Peace on earth ; goodwill towards men." Unfortunately, Day of Sale, when I however we are surrounded by stern facts which brook no delay, and by circumstances which force themselves upon public attention, however well disposed we may be to join in the holiday which is the especial privilege of the season. The war is still going on in the Crimea, although the com- batants may have temporarily ceased from active hostilities : the necessity for reinforcements of men and material still exists, and the demand must be HALL ended to, however strong the inclination to indulge in repose ; and up to within a day or two ago both Housesof Parliament have been engaged in the active business of legislation and the strife of party warfare, while their constituents were pre- paring for the customary rejoicings. But, amidst all these claims to notice, we must not omit what we may call the pleasing duty of reminding our readers, that the only true enjoy- ment of the delights of the season will be obtained from the extent of happiness which each has been the means of diffusing around him. We can hardly expect to return, in this utilitarian age, to that, with which our ancestors marked the return of Christmas ; but much of the same spirit may be evinced, in a general practice of that benevolence which binds together high and low, rich and poor, in that common bond which recognises mankind as one brotherhood. Those, upon whom the bounty of Providence has conferred the means, will show their appreciation of the blessings which they enjoy, and their gratitude to the DIVINE GIVER of all good things, by contributing to the necessi- ties of their poorer brethren, and enabling all within the sphere of their influence to partake of their abundance. Nor should the spirit of bene- volence be confined to the wealthier classes of society, for all have it within their power to do good, if it be necessarily limited to friendly acts, kind words, or charitable thoughts of each other : remembering that OUR SAN-palm has blessed the gift of a cup of cold water in His name, and given us the significant warning, "Inasmuch as ye have done it not to the least of these my little ones, ye. have done it not to me." The manner in which the appeal for contribu- tions to the Patriotic Fund has been responded to throughout the kingdom, offers a gratifying proof of the kind and sympathetic spirit which animates the majority of our countrymen ; but there are ditties owing also to the poor at home, who have no other claims than their poverty ; and there is no season so appropriate as the present to put into practice all our good resolutions, to let the com- mencement of another year witness our determina- tion to become more and more what we ought to be, less devoted to the mammon-worship of this world, less selfish, and more regardful of the interests of others. It is true that the especial Day will have passed when this may be read, but it is never too late to do good ; and sufficient time is left us, before we enter upon another year, to show that, in keeping our Christmas holiday, we have not been neglectful of the blessed truths, the glorious event, which it is designed to commemo- rate. In addition to the many acts of individual benevolence, there are numerous societies estab- lished for pious objects, which require increased support, in order to maintain their efficiency. All these are specially commended to our attention, and if we mark the Christmas of 1854 by such proofs of our being Christians, it will prove to us as great a blessing as the event we celebrate was designed to be to all mankind.

COMPENSATION FOR A RAILWAY ACCIDENT.—The railway accident at Hornsey last year has cost the Great Northern Railway Company another MOO, which was the amount awarded by a jury, in the Court of Queen's Bench on Monday, to Alderman Challis, M.P., who at the time of the collision (being then Lord Mayor) was in the train proceeding to the Cutlers' Feast at Sheffield.

THE ROYAL FAMILY continue at Windsor Castle, in the enjoyment of good health. Several distinguished visitors have been guests of Her Majesty during the week. AT TIIE COUNTY COURT, last week, Mr. Matthew Chester, an attorney, practising in Liverpool, was sued by a poor woman for the sum of £2 which he had received on her behalf, but had not paid over. His Honour, in order- ing immediate payment, spoke in strong terms of censure of Mr. Chester, who, he said, disgraced his profession, by getting money from poor distressed people by the most fraudulent pretences. THE ARCHDEACONRY OF CARLISLE, has become vacant by the death of the Rev. Dr. Goodenough ; also the rec- tories of Great Salkeld, Cumberland, and Mareham-le- Fen, Lincolnshire. The appointment's, which are of the aggregate value of £1,600 a-year, are all in the gift of the Bishop of Carlisle. Dr. Goodenough was a son of the late Bishop of Carlisle, from whom he received these valu- able presentations. How TO GET OVER A DIFFICULTY.—The Univers has raked up a prophecy a hundred years old, that the dogma of the Immaculate Conception would be proclaimed in a week without a Friday. The Bth of December, on which day Rome was "drunk with joy," was a Friday, according to the calendar ; but the Pope, to celebrate the occasionin a manner altog dispensation from the fast usua Thus the prophecy was fulfilled; in a Popish point of view there was no Friday in that week. y observe MILITARY DISCIPLINE. The East India steamer Seringapatam, which sailed from London in July for the Mauritius and Bombay ; to the former with drafts of the sth Fusiliiers and 85th Regiments, to the latter with pas- sengers and cargo, encountered some foul, but not severe weather between the Cape and the Mauritius, sprung a leak, and made water in the hold at the rate of three feet per hour. Five heavy guns and nearly 300 tons of cargo were thrown overboard, and for twenty days she was in peril. In the middle of this danger the crew broached some brandy, got drunk, and mutinied. Then came into play the order, discipline, and steadiness of the British soldiers, who continued night and day to work at the pumps, and brought the ship to Port Louis. SUSPICIOUS AFFAIR.—DEATH FROM POISON.—An inquiry was opened on Friday, at Finchley, on the body of Mr. John Southgate, of Strawberry-vale, who carried on an extensive business as a calenderer in the City of London. The deceased took, on Sunday evening, what was supposed to be a dose of Epsom salts, but the parcel from which he had taken it was found to contain oxalic acid. A chemist in Aldersgate-street, from whom the deceased had purchased some salts, proved that the mis- take could not have occurred at his shop, as the parcel found in deceased's room was not sealed with the same wax as that which was used by witness. Rumours affect- ing the character of persons connected with Mr. Southgate are afloat, and the inquest was adjourned that further investigation might be made. HER MAJESTY has been pleased to command that the undermentioned Regiments of Irish Militia shall be em- bodied, and placed under the orders of the General Com- manding-in-Chief, viz., Armagh, Antrim, North Cork, Dublin County, Galway, Kerry, South Mayo, and Queen's County. MR. JOHN BRIGHT'S RECEPTION IN MANCHESTER.— No member for Manchester ever received from his con- stituents such unmistakeable expressions of disapproba- tion as did Mr. Bright on Monday, after the meeting in the Town-hall. That an unfavourable reception in the Town-hall was anticipated there can be no doubt, and that the meeting was "packed" by the supporters of Mr. Bright there is abundant evidence. We have before us two printed circulars, dated from Newall's-buildings, and signed by Mr. Geo. Wilson, the first urging Mr. Bright's supporters to be early at the meeting and prevent any reso- lution being passed disparaging to that gentleman, and the other stating that Mr. Bright would be present to defend himself from any charges that might be made. During the meeting an immense concourse of persons, who had been unable to obtain admission, remained in front of the Town-hall, for the purpose of expressing their feelings towards Mr. Bright on his departure. After being re- fused a hearing in the Town-hall, the hon. member had to go through the ordeal of being hooted and groaned at by the assembly outside, who followed him and his friends along Cross-street to Market-street, giving vent to a storm of execrations which the representative of Manchester will long remember. His supporters raised cheers in opposition, but they were almost inaudible from the groans and yells that resounded on every side. The crowd seemed unable to limit their expressions of disapprobation to hisses and groans, for:as Mr. Bright and his friends were entering into the League Rooms, Newall's- buildings, a portion of the crowd made a rush upon them, with the object, apparently, of a personal attack upon Mr. Bright himself. To prevent this, several of his friends who were near him, commenced using their sticks freely on the heads of those who were below them. There were at this time in Market-street at least three thousand people, who were hooting with all their might. Some of the men became thorougly exasperated, and turnips and other missiles were showered up the stairs in dozens. At this moment a coal cart was seen in Market-street, and a number of men rushed to it, seized lumps of coal, and buried them through the doorway up the stairs. By way of retalia- tion, Mr. Bright's friends, finding on the top of the stairs a basket of ashes, threw the contents on those below. This caused a general melee on the stairs, during which one individual had his head cut open with a stick. In this disturbance, the most prominent actor was Mr. S. P. Robinson, one of the late secretaries of the League, who is described as having had a scientific " set-to" with a cabman. Unfortunately for Mr. Robinson, he has aat conspicuous by a prominent and beard, and Jehu, seeing the advantage r.ed his assailant by the hirsute appendage, aecome somew s encoun Mr. Robinson's spectacles came to the ground, and be found ; he also lost his handker- hand severely hurt.

PAINTINGS in the chapel at Fontainebleau, by •emiuet. injured by time and carelessness, have been- re- vived, under- the direction of the Minister of State, M. Achille Fould, by M. Theodore Lejeune. The chapel was built about 1529 ; and it was in 1603 that Henry IV. led Freminet to visit Paris, and commissioned him to decorate this edifice. • A PARTY of rich gentlemen have arrived at Jerusalem with the purpose of commencing a colony in Jericho. There are many similar projects proposed in different parts of the land. At Tyre and Sidon an architect has arrived from England, accompanied with men and means to com- mence a colony. JOHN HUGHES was executed at Melbourne on the 22nd of September, for the murder of Mr. Abraham Marcus, whilst he and his family were en route for the diggings. After his conviction the culprit boasted of having been concerned in thirteen different murders, one of which was committed a few minutes after Mr. Marcus's life was taken. PUBLIC INCOME AND EXPENDITURE.—By a parlia- mentary return, just published, of the public income and expenditure for the year ended 10th of October last, it appears that the total income amounted to £55,296,566 16s. 7d., and the expenditure £56,183,935 19s. 2d., being an excess of expenditure over income of £887,369 2s. 7d. The balance in the Exchequer on the 10th October amounted to £5,626,529 9s. 11d. EXTRAORDINARY PRIZE.-Mr. George Mansfield, son of the late Mr. Mansfield, shipbuilder, of Lyme Regis, has had £5,000 awarded to him as salvage for recovering 60,000 sovereigns from the ship Sacramento, wrecked at Port Philip on the 28th of April last. His boat's crew, six in number, were also awarded—one £2,000, and the others £1,500 each ; making a total of £14,500. Two MEDICAL MEN have given evidence at an inquest at Wells, and the jury have returned a verdict, that an Italian organ-grinder, named Batt, died from apoplexy, caused by making a hearty meal of new bread and hot tea. TIIE LAST PIECE IN CAB REFORM has now been carried out. The watermen are clothed in uniform, placed under the superintendence of the police, who are to prevent them spending their time in public-houses, are to be paid at the police-stations, and forbidden to take any gratuities. IT has been resolved by the committee of the Royal Caledonian Asylum that no children of civilians shall be admitted to the institution so long as there are any pro- perly-qualified candidates, who are children of military or naval men. BATTLE QF LOCKSMITIIB.—In the Court of Queen's Bench, on Thursday, Messrs. Parnell, the lock manufac- turers, of the Strand, London, brought an action against Mr. Goater, foreman of Mr. Chubb, lock manufacturer, St. Paul's, for a libel. In the Great Exhibition, a lock of the plaintiffs was exhibited with a label attached to it, offering 200 guineas, on certain conditions, to any one who would pick it. The defendant did pick it, and claimed the 200 guineas, but, not getting the money, he pub- lished an advertisement which contained the alleged libel. The jury found for the plaintiffs, damages £3O, on the grounds that the defendants did not comply with the conditions, having, without authority, entered the stall, &c., where the lock was. The defendant was examined, and stated that he could open any locks if allowed time. THE VESTTGES.—A Mr. Page, who has been a writer in Chambers' s Edinburgh Journal, writes to the Athe- neum, accusing Mr. R. Chambers of being the author of the Vestiges of Creation. Page was asked by Mr. William Chambers to write a review of the book for the journal, but after reading it, declined, stating his belief as to the author. Mr. William Chambers received this announcement with apparent surprise ; but denied all knowledge of the matter, and there the subject dropped. Some time after, however, and when the work was being severely handled by the reviewers, Mr. Robert Chambers alluded to the matter, affecting ignorance and innocence of the authorship, upon which Mr. Page remarked, that had he seen the sheets before going to press, he could have prevented some of the blunders. The consequence of this remark was, that Mr. Robert Chambers sent him the proof sheets of the second or third edition of the Vestiges,- with the request that he would enter .on the margin any corrections or suggestions that occurred. Mr. Page states that he made some notes ; but he does not say whether the notes were adopted into the reimpression. However, he has, as he declares, " made a clean breast of it" at length, and he concludes with the remark —" merit is attachable to the work, the author will reap his high reward—if demerit, the blame will, at least, fall on the right shoulders." THE PnOTOGRAPRIC PROCESS.—An action was tried in the Court of Common Pleas, on Wednesday, brought by Mr. Fox Talbot, who has hitherto been acknowledged to be the discoverer of photography, who had obtained the Royal Society's medal for the invention, and after whom he. art was named Talb3type, against a person named Laroche, for the infringment of the plaintiff's patent. The defendant was engaged in taking photographic portraits, and used what is called the "collodion process." The questions for the jury to determine were, whether the plaintiff was the first and true inventor of the process, and, if so, whether the collodion process was an infringement of it.. Their verdict was that Mr. Talbot was the inventor, and, on the other part of the case, that the defendant was not guilty. ACTION AGAINST TRE " EXAMINER " FOR LIBEL.— In the Queen's Bench, on Wednesday, an action was tried before Lord Campbell, in which Mr. Birch, formerly the proprietor of a newspaper, published in Dublin, called the World, sought to recover from Mr. John Forster, the editor and proprietor of the Examiner, for a libel con- tained in that paper. The alleged libel was contained in an article commenting, with great severity, on the con- duct of the plaintiff, who, some time ago, made himself conspicuous by bringing an action, in Dublin, against Lord Clarendon, for money which, he said, was due to him, for writing articles in his paper in support of " law and order" in Ireland. The defendant pleaded justifica- tion. The plaintiff conducted his own case, and called Lord Palmerston, Sir Charles Wood, and the Earl of Clarendon, who gave an account of the various proceed. ings which had taken place between Mr. Birch and the Government. The Attorney-General appeared for the de- fendant, and, in support of the plea of justification, the articles in the World were put in evidence, and it was proved that the plaintiff had been twice committed to prison for libel. Alexander Robinson, formerly manager of the London, Edinburgh, and Dublin Insurance Office, stated that, in 1842, the plaintiff wanted £6O or £7O not to write and injure that office, as he had the European. Other witnesses gave similar evidence. The jury gave a verdict for the defendant. ARCILEOLOGISTS.—The Morning Post reports a meet- ing of the Archaeological Association, very discreditable to a body of savans. It appears that, for some time past, heartburnings have been going on within the society, which have now broken forth. Mr. Hugo, the secretary, complains that Mr. Pettigrew, the treasurer, arrogates to himself all the conduct of the society, issuing circulars and calling meetings, &e., without consulting the secretaries and council, whose names he nevertheless appends to the business notices. The treasurer's friends met the question boldly, by proposing him at once as president of the asso- tion. Mr. Jowitt and others remonstrated that this mea- sure was of a piece with the course that had driven so many of the best men away from the society, but the mo- tion was carried by 35 to 22. Many of our readers will no doubt remember that this association is a schism from the Archaeological Institute. FATAL COLLIERY ACCIDENT.---An accident of a most remarkable character, by which four lives were lost, oc- curred on Monday evening, last week, shortly after seven o'clock, at the Northside Colliery, Bedminster, near Bris- tol. Four persons, named Frederick Pike, Charles Row- land, John Woodbridge, and Simon Darbin, entered the " cart" as usual, for the purpose of descending the pit to their work. When they had got some distance down, a bolt broke and threw the whole of the machinery out of gear, affecting first the small cog-wheel, which was broken in halves, and subsequently the side wheel, which was broken to pieces. The rope then broke, and the four men were precipitated to the bottom of the shaft, where the " cart" fell into a " crock" of water, and the rope fell on them. John Melson and several other men proceeded to lance. but it was nearly two o'clock d so on Tiles morning before the rope could be remove( that search could be made in the water for the bodies When they were at length got out they were all dead, and one of them was found in the " cart" in a sitting position. Such was the force of the concussion of one portion of the was forced nst the other, that a large piece of the cog- distance of about 60 feet through the and fell into a bedroom at the foot of cottager's wife was. putting her child to bed standing at one side. One arm of the t two cwt., together with a smaller ce of a quarter of a mile into a aid was buried some feet in the roof of a coil le, but v a, weighing vas carried a distar Med the Chessels, 'CH TROOPS of ation hay ITRIAN AIITI the German la a are, the Moniteur but only partially i by the pontifical age shall be us before the tribunals of tried by the tribunal of Correctional Poli for having formed a ( I that in the rtribunal sentenced five of the accused to fines of 2,000 f. each ; two to fines of I,ooof. each ' • one to a fine of 500 f. ; the others to fines of 250 f. each, and costs. THE INCOME TAX IN InEL IND.—A parl'ame -"try pap r has been issued, showing that the asses meats for income tax in Inland in the year ended tie sth April last w s £569,271 13s. 3d. The expense of colle3tion was £39,854. The number of persons assessed was 24,118. TAE ALGARVA, screw steam-ship, of Glasgow, 31'Nish comman de 3dasp;ow to leaky on Wednesdl Previous to co and put into Belfast Lough fo'ancLor,-she came in contact with the schooner Hope, of Carrickfergus. and both vessels thereby received severe damage. The Algarva has been towed up to Belfast fcr the parpose of examinations and repairs. BIRTH EXTRAORDINARY.—On Monday morning, the wife of a labouring man named Booth, living at Howden Clough, near Birstal, West Riding, gave birth to four children, three boys and a girl. They were all alive at the time of birth, but died shortly afterwards. _ _ _ GREAT NORTHERN RAILWA;.—An action brought by Alderman Challis, M.P. for Finsbury, against the Great Northern Railway Company, to recover damages for in- juries sustained by him on the Ist of August, 1853, when a collision took place on the line near the Hornsea station, by which several persons were killed, and many severely injured, was tried, in the Queen's Bench on ➢Ton- day. The jury gave a verdict for the plaintiff, with £2OO damages and costs. AN APPEAL has been made to talents .of architects of all countries to send in plans for the future cathedral of Notre Dame de la Treille, at Lille. The style of the edifice is to be that of the end of the thirteenth century. The expense is not to exceed three millions of francs. The successful competitor will receive 10,000 francs and the appointment of architect for carrying out the works, with a liberal salary. The second approved design will have 4,000 francs, and the third 2,000 francs. THE Connaught Watchman mentions that a few days ago, during a terrific storm, the steeple of Cross- molina Church fell through the roof with a fearful crash. A funeral service was being performed in the churchyard, and, though no person was struck by the falling stones, the electric fluid burnt the boots and leggings from the feet of some of the mourners. _ _ _ HOG TO HOG.—Near Kenosha, Wisconsin, a drunken man was a short time ago literally devoured by hogs while lying in the road in a beastly state of intoxication. His bones and a few remnants of his clothes were found. —American paper. SUICIDE AT NINETY YEARS OF AGE.—A widow woman named Scott, 90 years of age, committed suicide in this town on Saturday. A thin piece of rope fastened to a nail at no great height, enabled the deceased to com- mit the rash act ; and her determination is indicated by the fact that her feet more than reached the floor. Deceased had of late suffered occasionally from mental derangement.—Brechin Advertiser. . . A HOODED THrEr.—A man named Flanchin has been tried in Paris for robbery. He WAS accustomed to go, wearing one of those cloaks to which hoods are attached, to shops, and whilst examining different articles to raise his hand repeatedly to his neck, as if to scratch it. Each time he did this he slipped into his hood some article which he had contrived to take unobserved. At last, when detected, there were found in his hood eight watches, three chains, fourteen rings, two parcels of lace, ten tooth- brushes, several pots of pomatum, books, &e. He was sentenced to two years' imprisonment. MESSRS. SHUTTLEWORTH'S BANKRUPTCY.—Mr. G. E. Shuttleworth and his two sons, the well-known auctioneers, came before the London Court of Bankruptcy on Monday. It was the certificate meeting. The accounts showed, liabilities £25,000 ; assets about £5,300 ; property held by creditors, £8,626. Mr. Commissioner Fonblanque gave judgment, and, on the ground that the trading had been carried on most improvidently, and that the book-keeping had been of the worst description, awarded a certificate of the third class. The certificate of the elder bankrupt was suspended for three months, that of the sons for two years. Protection was granted. THE NEW BANK OF ENGLAND NOTE.—At a meeting of the Society of Arts, on Wednesday, a paper was read on the new Bank of England note, which showed the improve- ment effected by the substitution of surface printing from electrotypes for the ordinary copperplate printing. The bank notes, by this system, are printed at a steam press, constructed by Napier, at the rate of 3,000 an hour. A new Britannia has been devised by Mr. Maelise. The paper has been much improved, and other alterations have been made. By the new system the most perfect identity will be insured. VALUABLE DISCOTERY.—A letter from Paris says— " Dr. Griseler has accidentally discovered, that by adding a few drops of nitric ether to the most rancid oils all the disagreeable smell is removed, and that by afterwards warming the oil, to separate the spirit from it, it becomes as clear and as limpid as though it had never been dete- riorated. According to the doctor's account, some drops of the nitric ether will prevent oil from becoming rancid." FATAL BOILER EXPLOSION.—On Tuesday morning a boiler explosion took place at the chemical works of Messrs. Pattinson and Co., Newcastle-on-Tyne, which are very extensive, covering 17 acres of ground, and giving employment to 1,5006 men. Before the explosion it was discovered that the boiler leaked, and the fire was ordered to be drawn out, which was just about to be done when the explosion took place, killing two men and seriously injuring two others, besides doing damage to the amount of from £5OO to £6OO. A piece of the boiler, weighing a ton and a-half, was carried 60 yards, and fell through one of the workshops. A WEALTHY MENDICANT.—Last week, about half-past two o'clock in the morning, an aged woman, in the most abject state of wretchedness and nearly perished with cold, applied to be admitted into the Camberwell Work- house, which was immediately granted. From certain circumstances which afterwards' occurred, the master had her searched, when a bag was found upon her person con- taining 44 new sovereigns. STORM AND Loss or LINE..—A full gale of wind has been blowing since Thursday night. At times it rose to a violent storm. For the past 10 days or a fortnight, the weather has been unusually boisterous for the month of December. However, owing to the superior class of steam- vessels now engaged in the mail and passenger service, not only has there been no serious injury sustained by any of them on the sea between Dublin and Liverpool and Holyhead, but their arrivals are generally punctual to the time they are due. THE MAGNETIC TELEGRAPII.—On Thursday, an action for breach- of contract was tried before the Chief Justice of the Common Pleas and a special jury. Mr. Richard Byrne, merchant, of Dublin, sought to recover £2OO damages against the Magnetic Telegraph Company, for neglecting to send a message to Scotland which they undertook to do, and from neglect of which the plaintiff lost a large slim. Upon the part of the defendants, the case relied on in statement and proof was, that they con- tracted to send all messages, subject to the natural casualties arising from the state of the weather, &c. ; that they sent the plaintiff's message to Belfast, and that the weather prevented the company's agents there from forwarding it to Scotland; and that, therefore, they were not liable. The jury found for plaintiff-220 damages. ANATOMY OF A RUSSIAN GUY FAWICES.—An Irish surgeon, residing in Manchester, has sent us an account of a post mortem held on the body of Mr. Bright's effigy, which was burnt here the other day. The appearances observed were the following :—The whole exterior exhi- bited a drab discolouration. The chest presented an almost total absence of heart ; the pericardium forming a kind of cyst, bag, or purse, resembling an old brown paper cap, and exhaling a strong odour of Russian leather communi- cated to it by a quantity of rancid oil, which constituted the liquor pericardii. The heart, or what remained of it, afforded throughout a specimen of fatty degeneration, and may be said to have consisted of tallow. The lungs were consolidated by a morbid deposit of a nature apparently bituminous, like pitch or tar, and the only air tubes per- ceptible in them had the appearance of straw. In the stomach, the liver attracted attention by its remarkable whiteness, which was owing to its structure havir g assumed a cottony character. The convolutions of the viscera also bore a singular resemblance to cotton twist. The head contained an average proportion of brain, but it had all been converted into lignine or woody fibre, disposed in bundles like deal shavings, which smelt powerfully of tur- pentine. All these appearances were considered quite sufficient to account for the inflammation which termi- nated the patient's careen—Platen. AMERICAN HOPS.—Hops are becoming an important article of foreign as well as of domestic commerce. We are now supplying the English market with the growth of 1854. The hop trade of this country is destinedto be one of vast importance, but, as yet, we produce comparatively but few, the breadth of land devoted to their cultivation not exceeding 8,000 acres, chiefly in New York and east. The average crop and consumption hitherto have not ex- ceeded 20,000 bales of 2001 b. to the bale. This year's growth goes beyond the average by at least 6,000 to 8,000 bales, and a brisk export demand is the result at remunera- tive prices-40 cents per pound. Already the exports amount to 5,000 bales, worth at least the large amount of 400,000 dollars. There is every probabiLty of the foreign demand continuing, as prices range in England from 80 to 120 cents per pound, whilst 15 cents will cover all the expenses of shipment, sale, duty, &c. Should this foreign demand continue another week or two, we shall be left with a deficiency on this side, and as malt is 75 per cent. above the average price of the past twenty years, brewers will have to advance their prices from five to seven dollars per barrel for the genuine article.—New York Shipping List. COUNTERFEIT SOVEREIGNS AND lIA.LVES.—It appears that amongst the base coin in circulation are some Vic- toria half-sovereigns of 1852, struck out of brass with a die, and electro-plated, and so hard that they will not bend in the detector. In point of weight they are very much lighter, and the "ring" ,is very brassy and dull. The milling round the edge is very perfect, but the die from which they have been struck was far from perfect, and on inspection showed that the letters " n", in Britanniarum are inverted. Some Victoria sovereigns, of the same date, are also in circulation. They are made in the same way as the half-sovereigns, but the die from which they have been struck was coarser and more faulty than that from which the half-sovereigns had been struck. The wreath which is round the coat of arms contains fewer leaves than in a real one, whilst the letters are larger and coarser, and the figures in the date are not all of one size, and the dots or pellets between the inscriptions are wanting.—Standard.

The Year 1855 bids fair to be one of the most important and- eventful of modern history. On the 6th of January, 1855, will be issued the first number of a New Volume of the ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS, and not merely a New Vo- lume, but of a New Year—each Volume being perfect and complete in itself—containing, for the time, a faithful record, pictorial and descriptive, of all Events of Interest in every part of the World. To that limited portion of the Public who do not subscribe to this Journal, it may be stated, that no period could be selected more opportune for commencing— the whole expense being but Twenty-six Shillings per Annum, exclusive of double numbers, which are issued on rare occa- sions, when it would be impossible to crowd the important events and engravings into a single number; for this small sum the Subscriber will receive twenty-four large Pages— seventy-two Columns—of the most interesting information, carefully selected from the News of the Week, interspersed with a variety of charming Ari icleson thechief topics of the day. The ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS has, by its impartial and consistent advocacy of the welfare of the Public, secured for itself a political influence scarcely second to any News- paper in the Empire; and reference can, with some pride, be made to the support afforded to all beneficial measures, pro- posed and adop'ed by the English Parliament. Foreign Politics will ever command the attention which ought to be devoted to so important a feature of a News- paper. On the question of the Russian We; during the year 1854, ONE THOUSAND ENGRAVINGS appeared in the ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS. Extensive arrangements, calculated to improve this popular Journal, and engagements, such as will greatly enrich its Literary, Scientific, and other departments, have been made, and will thus combine on this Paper the greatest talent of the day. The ILLUSTRATED. LONDON NEWS has been established thirteen years, during which period it has received a greater degree of encouragement and approbation than any Journal ever published. This is proved by the Returns of Stamps issued from time to time by order of Parliament. The Stamps applied for the first six months of 1854, was upwards of 2,734,000—showing a WEEKLY CIRCULATION of upwards of ONE HUNDRED and THIRTY THOUSAND COPIES ! Terms (payment in advance)—Half-year, 135.6 d. ; Year, 265. Any of the Volumes of the ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS, from the commencement to the present time, may now be had, in paper or cloth.

January 6 will be Pulished, price 6d., free by post, each volume complete in itself,Twenty-four, occasionally Thirty- two, Folio Pages, THE FIRST NUMBER FOR 1855 OF THE GARDENER'S' CHRONICLE AND AGRICULTURAL GAZETTE; a Weekly Record of Rural Economy and General News. The Horticultural part Edited by Professor LINDLEY. _ The Firming part (under the Editorship of a Practical Farmer) treats of—The Practice of Agriculture, Agricultural Science, Animal and Vegetable Physiology, Improvements in Implements (described by Woodcuts whenever requisite), Better Modes of Husbandry,.. Results of Experimental Farm- ing, Growth and Rotation of Crops, Management of Stock, Veterinary Science, Drainage, Irrigation, Foresting, Road- making, Farm Buildings, Labourers, Treatment of Poultry, Agricultural Publications; in short, whatever affects the be- neficial employment of capital in hand. Reports are regularly given of the English, Scotch, and Irish Agricultural Societies and Farmers' Clubs—London market pries of corn, hay, cattle, seeds, hops, potatoes, wool, coal, timber, bark, &c., and the Weekly Averages. As regards the Gardening part (under the Editorship of Dr. Lindley), the principle is to make it a weekly record of every- thing that bears upon Horticulture, Floriculture, Arboricul- ture, or Garden Botany, and such Natural History as has a relation to Gardening, with Notices and Criticisms of all Works on such subjects. Connected with this part are WEEKLY CALENDARS OF GARDENING OPERATIONS, given in detail, and adapted to the objects of persons in every station of life ; so that the Cottager, with a few rods of ground before his door, the Amateur who has only a Greenhouse, and the Manager of extensive Gardens, are alike informed of the routine of operations which the varying seasons render neces- sary. It moreover contains Reports of Horticultural Exhibi- tions and proceedings—notic^s of novelties and improvements —in fact, everything that can tend to advance the profession, benefit the condition of the workman, or conduce to the plea- sure of his employer. Woodcuts are given whenever the matter treated of requires that mode of illustration. Replies to questions connected with the object of the paper are also furnished weekly. Lastly, that description of Domestic and Political News is introduced which is usually found in a Weekly Newspaper. It is unnecessary to dwell on this head further than to say, that the Proprietors do not range themselves under the ban., ners of any Party ; their earnest endeavours are to make TH E GARDENERS' CHRONICLE AND AGRICULTURAL GAZETTE a full and comprehensive record of facts only—a Newspaper in the true sense of the word—leaving the reader to form his own opinions; their object being the elucidation of the laws of Nature, not of Man. The reader is thus furnished, in ad- dition to the peculiar features of the Journal, with such infor- mation concerning the events of the day as supersedes the, necessity of his providing himself with any other weekly paper. A Prospectus, with a List of Contributors, may be had on application; or by letter, at the Office, 5, Upper Wellington- street, Covent-garden, andon. Parties intending to commence with the New Volume had better give their Orders at once to any Newsvender.

o force their require step by step after the first division, it seems to other opposition to it being the division on the third reading, which was carried by a majority o liable to the charge of insincerity—the Ministers who employed a threat they might never have in- tended to carry out, or the members who promised the most determined opposition, and then quietly ❑dered all their convictions pressure Ministerial The measure is, however, purely a parliamentary one. The country has had no voice in the matter, it has not been consulted, and has had no oppor- tunity to declare its opinion by petition or remon- strance. The disgrace must, therefore, attach to those who have undertaken the task, and for the consequences the Ministers must be held'respon- sible. Lord BROUGHAM has introduced a bill for the assimilation of the law of this country with that of Scotland, in respect to bills of exchange. The measure has received the approval of the LORD CHANCELLOR and the LORD CHIEF JUSTICE, and we may therefore anticipate that it will prove advantageous. Some bills have been brought in by Irish members, with reference to the jury system, and also to spirit duties in that country ; for the extension of the Common Law Procedure Act Amendment, and also to regulate fairs and markets in Ireland ; so that there will be no want of occu- pation for the legislature. Notices have also been given to move for the introduction of bills, on the re- commencement of parliamentary business. The measures promised include the law of partnership, newspaper stamps, church-rates, the marriage amendment act, education, and others. The war will, consequently, prove no impediment to at- tempts at legislation, though whether they will prove more than attempts remains to be seen.

Unfortunately however, we are surrounded by stern facts which brook no delay, and by circumstances which force themselves upon public attention, however well disposed we may be to join in the holiday which is the especial privilege of the season.

the Highland Brigade near the town of Balaklava. Lieut.- Colonel de Bathe, and his recently arrived draughts for the adce-of brushwood in the neighbourhood ment is about eight miles from the head-quarters of the Guards, on our right. While the army is in such a state of prostration from iad not a reserve of able and experienced men of every grade at home, it is matter of great congratulation that a general so distinguished, energetic, and skilful as Major-General Pennefather has every chance of recovering from the serious illness under which he has been labouring. He has been brought down to Balaklava from the camp, and I am told his medical men think there is nothing to appre- hend, and that he will before long be restored to the division he so ably commands. The number of applications sent to Lord Raglan for leave to retire, to sell out, or to go on half-pay, is said to be very great. The Duke of 'Welling- ton had to contend against the same evil in Spain. It is said—but I do not know whether there is any good ground for the assertion, and lam inclined to think there is none —that after Lord George Paget's name appeared in orders as having received permission to retire no less than 180 applications to sell out or go on half-pay were sent in to the Commander of the Forces. Some of these have, it is stated, been acceded to—that is, Lord Raglan has sent them to the Commander-in-Chief of the army, with rather sarcastic recommendations that the permission sought for be granted ; others have been refused, inasmuch as the Colonels of the regiments to which the applicants belonged did not approve the application. If report be true, in- , deed, some of these gentlemen were "no great loss," and the army is well rid of them. One young person, who recently retired, and who belongs to the nobility, to whose gallant conduct here he offered a striking con- tract, had been publicly rebuked by his commanding officer for his disorderly and pusillanimous behaviour before he retired. in Balaiiliva for some timTe past, are in great dudgeon al being ordered out with their regiments, and they aver, with great show of reason, that it will be quite impos- sible for them to keep their books and accounts in tents in weather like the present. Our commissiariat officers, who are furnished with marquees and considerable corn- . . forts, such as tables, chairs, and pigeonholes for papers, &c., complain nevertheless of the difficulties they expe- rience in going through their duties. Shortly after the storm of the 14th, I met one of these gentlemen coming out of Balaklava, his face radient with joy which could not be easily accounted for at the time, seeing that it was cold, wet, and the roads were knee-deep. " Congratulate me, I beg of you," said he ; every blessed paper, return, book, or account I had in the world was blown away yes- terday into Sebastopol, and I am happy." DECEMBER 6. Last night, at twelve o'clock, there was a great stir down in the valley of Balaklava. The hoarse hum of great crowds of men was heard by the pickets, and they reported the circumstance to the officers of the French regiments on the heights, Lights were seen moving about in the redoubts occupied by the Russians since the affair of the 25th of October. It was supposed that the enemy had received reinforcements, or were about to make a dash at our position before Balaklava. The Hospital Guards and the invalid battalion were at once turned out, and the French, shrouded in their capotes, grimly waited in the lines the first decisive movement of the enemy. The night was cold, but not clear, and after a time the noise of wheels and the tramp of men ceased, and the alarm was ever. Ere morning, however, we knew the cause of it, for about five o'clock a.m., an outburst of flames from the redoubts in which the Russians had hutted themselves illuminated the sky, and at the same time the fire broke nnt in the cottages on the alone of the hill before Kamara. When morning came, heaven, and the Russians were visible in much-diminished numbers on the higher plateaux of the hills near Tchergom and Kamara. The faint rays of the morning sun played on the bayonets of another portion of the force as they wound up the road towards Mackenzie's Farm, and passed through the wood over the right bank of the Tchernaya. The reason of this retreat remains unknown to us as yet. Perhaps the Russian general was informed by his spies that the French had landed at the north side of Sebastopol and were marching on his flank, for the story of the landing is universally believed, and is utterly untrue. It is more probable, however, that the severity of the weather and want of shelter forced him to abandon the position in the. was seer iures, the RAssian aavinicarriedOir all their artillery pieces. the number of 85 r DECEMBER '2 At 3 o'clock three s Id Division, consisti battalions of infantry of the ,seur regiments week t the ere they will charter Crimea.

Depbts established for in any foreign country are to be supported by- Governments. As regards the exchange of pd— io distinction is made between the respective of the two Governments who may have been ; but their liberation is to be stipulated, except cases, according to the priority of the date of ture. The fifth article refers to the ratification avention which took place in London on the 20t1r. RINGS IN THE CRIMEA.—The correspondent. of icing Herald tells a sad tale of the hardships: suffered by our soldiers. Writing on the 3rd instant, he says :—" Seriously speaking, the miserios and discomforts of camp .life are now beyond all powers of description- There is no comfort or necessary which in England woukl be thought essential to a man's safety which we have not to do without. Tolerable shelter from the weather, or sufficient health to bear its depressing influences with im- punity, are luxuries which few in our camp possess. We thought we were always sure of rations, but even the supply of those is becoming precarious. In the gale which destroyed so many of our vessels immense supplies of stores of all kinds for the army were lost. The defi- ciency of biscuit has now been made up by ship-loads of Turkish biscuit from Constantinople; but it has only 1114- _ arrived, and the roads are in such a condition that it ift almost impossible to get any up to camp : consequently, several of the divisions have been on half-rations of bread one day, and on half-rations of biscuit the next, and so, alternately, for the last five days. The whole camp have been on half-rations of rum, though there never was a. time when it was more required. Of course, when it has been so difficult to get up food for the men, the horses have been but badly fed, and are dying off fast, and our chances of getting up supplies diminish in exact propor- tion with the number of horses. Very few are in a. con- dition to work, and those must, of necessity, be kept far the use of the artillery. If the weather keeps on as it is at present, and we get no supplies of mules and hem; the whole camp will be on half-rations, and brigades must be employed even to carry up these. When troops in. winter quarters have double work and half food, it re- quires no prophet to say what will become of them ; and- the position of the allies will be really hazardous in the extreme, unless we receive immediate reinforcements. We- want large and quick suppliesofeverything which an army can wan t, an d cannotdo without—men, horses,ammnnition, warm clothing, carts, &c. Don't for a moment let your readers imagine that I am purposely drawing a disheart- ening picture. I have always striven to avoid such a. chaige ; but now the truth must be told. It is better that the public should learn the true state of the case through. the press, than suddenly discover it by some terrible re- verse to our arms out here. With the allied generals to command and a proper amount of troops, we could sweep the Crimea in three months; but while the nations and Go- vernments at home are besotted and drunk with the vain notion that we have only to show ourselves in order to overcome immense forts and armies, we shall do nothing— not even hold our own." He also adds that the cholera is showing itself in much virulence in the Naval Brigade,. and the newly-arrived drafts and regiments, such as the men for the Guards and Light Division, the 46th, 97th, and 9th Regiments. A PARISIAN SWINDLER..--A wealthy Lyons merchanE arrived in Paris about a fortnight ago on a pleasure trip. Chance threw him in the way of a charming young man, named, according to his own account, Count de Sillery, who offered to show him all the curiosities. The count pro- posed to begin operations by visiting the Bois de Bologne, and the merchant suggested that they should take an mi- nibus to go there. "An omnibus !my dear sir, you must not think of such a thing. I will hire a coupe !" " But the expense —" "Oh ! I must beg that you will have nothing at nll to say to the coachman !" An offer sa could not be refused, and the two friends wood for several hours.

The dead are frightful to look upon— emaciated to the last degree, with the faces and heads swollen and discoloured, and drops of blood stealing down from nose and ear ; there they are, lying in ranks on the hill-side, while the living, who seem soon about to follow them, dig their graves. I can count 35 bodies already on the ground, and it is early in the day; over the hill-side come men bearing more litters.

He went and saw ; but, unlike C.NSA33;' dit not conquer, at least not much : but hcspeedily found °ll' (what he and his employors ought previously to 110" known) that his skips and armament were unfitted to the purposes of the expedition ; and that for 'service in'tt9 intricate and shallow passages which beset-the navig4ione Vl' of the Baltic; gun-boats with heavy artillery and a 110. draft of water were more suitable than stately shins. enough, the' KING of PRUSSIA had discOver'erthat inv.„ portant fact before, and had got two such gun-boats on the banks- of the Thames ; but our gallant First Lou or tne Aarniratty, more intent upon shedding blood of " Srlto's vine" than estimating: the r.` • quirements of warlike expeditions to the' Boleci takes no note- of such affairs, till they are • fore upon his official' observation, and then he sets about oe, acquisition of the tWo coveted gun-boats in a marine!, i l. not entirely sui certainly tin: the British cabit;et. On behalf Of GRAITAM has acquired those identical gun-boats bralr°;, cess, which a Scotch packman would describe as nun;cl cf ing ;" in his own words, he has agreed to give a frigate" for the two vessels ! Here was a bargain worthyt of the employment of Several: of the "talents." The.thri of getting two " speu 'and span new" gun-boats, far an i " old frigate," was indeed an idea worthy of a " nation or. shopkeepers" ; and when we reflect that the opposite n!. ferer, in goods " contraband' of war," was 7' veritable, though probably not a. very kingly king, the transaction seemed of a higher reach-in " dealing" than otherwise 1t might have claimed to he.= A slight consideration of the ease will speedily show us, however, that, how defective scorer • Sir JAMES may be in kinweraft, his fellow-trader is the superior huckster. The old' frigate" turns out to be none other than the Thetis afrigateof 1,524 tons burth_Aell' carrying 36 guns, launchedin46 18 from the building-Ya'i at Deptford, and considered by connoisseurs a model ed , naval architecture. Her performances in the Pacific 011 also. in the Channel are reported of in highly complimer tary terms; and, so far as the• economy of this bargali goes, it appears to oscillate considerably beyond the rear of ourpresent first Lord of the Admiralty. In accordaat with present probabilities, the:Thetis', assuming the oe character of the Vladimir of the Baltic, will, next sess°il". 7,' cruizing under Russian colcurs, take a peep at the tr, gun-boats for which she was- exchanged, and run at' from them or with them, as circumstances, or the fs're' may determine ! Who knows, however, probably at tail. close- of the next valedictory. Reform• Club libation, P, JAMES, instead of conferring or, his departing deputY power of declaring war, may impose on him the necesslie of capturing the Thetis, and' then we- shall have frigs 0 and gun-boats both. Sir JAXEa. is a borderer, and,. life doubt is up to a thing or two,. in the- art of predm°^' warfare. Nous verons. A. long-promised and anxiously-looked-for work has rs just made its appearance. It was announced, and apra d under the title of " Thirty Yeaxsof Foreign Policy, is from the pen of the author of " The Right Hon Is r Disraeli, M.P." It is a singula work, and, like ~1 predecessor, one of no small ability, however little mil, rity it may carry with it. It has been written obvious with. the intention of demonstrating the extraordinary and startling proposition with, which. the Earl of .A 10,11; BEEN astonished Parliament-, and the country on 1„)--_`.. accession to office as Premier, when he declared that B.": thirty years the foreign policy of 'this country had bees the same. To those who remember the commentarie more•graphic than graceful, by which Lords PaLmERsTo! and AI,EADEEN respectively characterised the foreign policy of each other, the task.undertaken in the present instance may seem difficult of- execution ; but to darinf genius all things become easy, and the author ,f; 'Benjamin Disraeli" is one- of those who make t'ig banes of cutting blocks with .razors. True enougti or premises are always made prize-of war, whether larvwo, otherwise, and from these he-" draws his conch's'. dt, because they will not follow." His modus operaaAfi. though not very new, is somewhat ingenious, and sti-ei, cranny* startling. He reviews the-foreign policy of of of the aspirants to statesmanship, through the optics ,10 one-who is decidedly inimical to that of both ; and by of method, having got up a pretty strong condemnatTiltwo the• one and-of the other, he sets about showing that the sets of policy which could be thus obnoxious to lee censures of M. FICQUELMONT; the assumed arto malorum in this contest of politics, must in the main „eat a good many points of resemblance—hence, hist-Coal assumption is that they must be very much alike. ynot this limb of the syllogism the.transference is easY,.„, "Avg quite conclusive, that they are identical. xia-tize established, • in this singular manner, not onlY, the general similarity, but the absolute identity 's' ea two systems of policy, which appear to have no corn. • feature, except that of having- secured the blind hastille- of M. FICQUELMONT, the author's next step in ratioclo . tion, is an equally bold one. It stands something in PAy, form, although not quite so-succinctly given. Lord et• MERSTON would make an excellent Minister for conolt„it log the present war—all :men are agreed on that ;Lord Lord ABERDEEN'S policy is identical with that 01 ital- PALMERSTON ; therefore, Lord ABERDEEN is a Ca' Minister for for conducting • the- war—therefore he does duet it admirably. Q. E: D-! Another of the paradoisis7l, demonstrations of this bold and cunning sciolpusillani W ty dle the blame of the present war, not on the and and bad faith of the Ministry, but on the influencedussS- conduct of the Peace, Society. That the stark 01' hoe and raving absurdity of these mock philanthropists _ na- gone a good way in inslueing Europe to a belief in oi!lrsh tional insanity, may, indeed, be true, but it seems b,c for distribution of justice- to hold their twaddle amrlt,aot- the the barbarous treachery and rapacious hyP0en.4,11,9100 CZAR.

In am especial manner has ttii • jealousy been directed ag ainst' everthing which could bear semblance of a military interposititon in our domestic to exc nade with the most seda- .erference in our electoral and judicial arrangements;. and the introduction, of a foreign military power into these islands has beenlooked Is an act which nothing but the most all parties argent necessities court palliate, or justify the attempt of It ha been reserved for-a cabinet professing more' than, ordinary regard for publie• liberty and popular rights,--tb advocate and insist on the adoption of a measure by which, our native soldiery may be-drafted off to the uttermost ends of the earth, while their places are supplied by armed bands of foreign hirelings, and our liberties and constitti• tional privileges are abandoned. to the protection of mer-• eenary bayonets. Free trade- in corn, the supremacy of calico; and unstinted concessions to the interests and pre= dilations of foreigners, have' been characteristically fol- lowed. by a law for the introduction of alien cohorts, by whose' aid individual freedom ors public liberty may be SU, pended or trodden under foot. at the bidding of a court avourite, or in obedience to the dictates of a supple or an arbitrary minister. When about to, introduce a measure of such sinister reach and such-questionable application as- the Foreign Enlistment bill, it is•scarcely to be wondered; that Ministers should have been desirous of avoiding anything in the shape of premature publicity—that with their own chattering htbits and the pragmatical toasting of their underlings they; should have been able to .prevent the slightest inkling: of their intention to transpire• on such a subject, indicates- only too clearly their consciousness of its iniquity ; and this- consciousness of its dangerous_ importance is still farther borne out by the style of arguments adduced by Clem in its favour. No one of all• the ministerial band in either house, for even a moment, attempted to grapple with the constitutional argument against the adoption of the-project. Side state- ments otevery form—plausibilities- of every hue—misre- presentations varying through every degree of magnitude and. incredibility—were put forward in justificition of present expediency. The views and the opinions of MARLBOROUGH and of WELLINGT.ON were adduced as affording parallels to the present, application for foreign mercenaries; but in every case the-fact that the foreigners employed under those illustrious commanders were troops raised,..trainecl, and disbanded in %reign countries, and never- set foot within our island,' was carefully excluded from, view. With equal disingenuousness the distrust evinced by both those commanders for the foreign leg,ionaries placed under their controul was carefully segregated from the ministerial arguments ; and one who possessed no better knowledge of the facts than that derived from the harangues of the• " coalition orators" would. have been led to believe that the success of the English arms at Blenheim and Minden, on the plains of Taikvera and Waterloo, depended exclusively on the valour and prowess of the foreign battalions of which our army were mainly composed, and with which our own insignificant squadrons were fortunately brigaded ! The had taste and erroneous deductions of the ministerial statements and logic formed fertile themes of reprobation for• the eloquence of the Conservative phalanx, which defended alike the integrity of our constitution, and upheld the honour of our national renown. Among: the peers, the Earls of DERBY and ELLENBOROUGH4 eloquently denounced the danger of giving to anyr- government " the power of placing any portion of the guardianship of England: in Germans, or in the- hands of other foreign troops, in substitution or to the• exclusion of the troops of the country." In the House of Commons, Sir E. 13. LYTTON, in answer to the specious. clap-trap about the bravery of contingent troops, as that was testified to by the Duke of WELLINGTON, said finely, and with telling effect, while proclaiming the general anxiety that the war should be prosecuted with vigour, " I am unwilling to acknowledge, in the beginning of the contest, that we have not sufficient men to fight our own battles and to win our own laurels. The honour of Eng- land is staked upon the- present war, and that honour is not so intolerable a burden that we must thus early call in foreigners to share in bearing any portion of it. If any- thing can render the war unpopular, the sight of foreign troops in this country, supported by the taxes, and occu- pying those barracks-, the avowed deficiency in the accom- modation of which has been alleged by ministers as a reason for not embodying the militia, will tend to make it both unpopular and. hateful. Such a spectacle will sour the temper of the• middle classes. Those, classes now proud of bearing: the burdens, and of making sacrifices in support of their fellow-subjects, who repay those sacrifices, and lighten those burdens by the achievement of deeds, the glory of which reflects honour on theirrcommon name; but they will, not bear such burdens, nos' submit to such sacrifices for the support of foreigners, whose most brlliant achievements are only to be looked on as compliments paid to our wealth at the expense of our manliness of character The flimsy pretext that- our immediate re_ sources in available recruits had been exhausted, was dexterously anatomised by Sir. E. B. LYTTON, and also by Lord STANLEY, who, on Tuesday night, may be said to have made his first essay in general politics. In reply to LordPALMERsTos,Mr. Dr suA.ELT, happily ridiculed what he felicitously denominated "the good-natured bluster" of the noble Home Secretary ; and, by a few well-selected7efuo- tations from the correspondence of the Duke of WEI INGTON gave the coup de grace to these marvellou. kries member for Tiverton endeavoured to cajole the Rouse.

LA.W.—A meet- Jig, numerously attended, of the Welsh residents of this town, was 'held on Wednesday, at the Concert-hall, Lord Nelson-street, David Roberts, Esq., in the chair, for the purpose of establishing a Liverpool Welsh Auxiliary to the Unittd Kingdom Alliance, for the total and immediate legislative suppression of the traffic in intoxicating liquors Siveralresolufions were carried animoasly, and a peti flan to 'Parliament adopted. ItUOTIANICS' INSTITIITION:---A public rehearsal of the vocaPtnusic practised by the pupils of the tower school, antler the presidency of Mr. W. B. Rogers, took place on Wednesday, in the lecture hall of the Mechanic's Institu- lion. The performances consisted of a great number c Ayrolese airs, very well sang by the boys, interspersed with solos performed on the organ with great taste by Mr. Uogers. After the performance the head master, Mr. Vllveen, addressed the audience on the educational benefits to be derived frn" complishments. Mr. of the debt (£4,000) c already been made up.

SELECT VESTRY.—The Rev. Rector Campbell presided at the meeting on Tuesday. It was stated that the num- ber of persons who had used the vagrant sheds last week was 383 males, 219 females, and 24 children ; a total of 626. The number of inmates at the Workhouse was stated to be 2,707.

Letters, which bad been addressed by the Board of Health to the Select Vestry and the Health Committee, were then read ; the "The Vestry is the authority in which the Nuisances Removal Act vests the execution of the regulations and directions of this board, and they appear, fromtheir, letter, to have made their medical arrangements in the exercise of a discretion 'with which the president of this board would not have felt himself called upon to interfere at the time, had the facts now before him been 'brought to his notice as they occurred. Considering all the correspon- dence, it appears to the president that both the Town Council, the Vestry, and their officers, have been actuated by a strong sense of public duty, and be would earnestly recommend both bodies to employ their energies rather in co-operation for the benefit of their fellow-citizens, than in discussion of the course pursued by each other in relation to the 'epidemic which has now happily disappeared." A di' ---* a V-- d 4pute then arose relative to the payment o ie medic& officers, in the course of which Mr. Bradley, Mr. Rawle and Mr. Blain, members of the Medical Relief Committee; tendered their resignations ; but ultimately the vestry adjourned without coming to any decision. MARRIAGE IN HIGH LIFE.—On Thursday, the village of 'Hale, in this county, presented an appearance of unusual gaiety on the occasion of the marriage of Russell Charles -Stanhope, son of the Hon. Major Sir Francis Stanhope, and nephew of the Earl of Harrington, with Ellino/. Arena, daughter of Ireland Blackburne, Esq. of Hale Hall, formerly M.P. for Warrington. The bride wore a magnificent dress of Brussels lace and veil, and was at- tended by eight bridesmaids, attired in lilac silk, trimmed with groseille and bonnets to match, with bouquets from London, presented by Lord Molyneux. The bridegrocmi's best man was Captain Somerset. The bridesmaids were Lady Cecilia Molyneux, the Hon. Miss Byng, (Maid of Honour to the Queen), Miss Houghton, Miss Patten, Miss Cornwall Legh, and the bride's two sisters. Among the company present were the Earl and Countess of 'Sefton, Hon. Mr. Molyneux, Sir R. Pigot, Mr. Oreville, Mrs. Hughes, &c. The cottages on Mr. Blackburne's estate, between the hall and the church, were decorated with flags bearing appropriate devices, and arches of flowers and evergreens were thrown across the road leading to the church, while the tenantry on horseback and the school girls on the estate with flower garlands lined the way. After the ceremony the bride and bridegroom received immense numbers of presents, and went off in a chariot and four to Legh Oaks, in Derbyshire, the residence of Colonel Blackburne, the bride's brother. A splendid dejeuner was given at the old hall, where toasts were drunk and speeches made. The festivities orthe day were brought to a close by a ball, at which a numerous assem- blage of families in the neighbourhood was -collected. SOUTHPORT RAILWAY CONTRACTORS.— On Wednesday, a meeting of residents on the line of railway between Liverpool and Seaforth, was held at the Clarendon-rooms, to take into consideration the best means of meeting the intended advance of the contracts, and 'to provide other means of conveyance. Mr. J. M. Syers was called to the chair. The Chairman, in directing attention to the object of the meeting, said it was not so much a question of money—for even upon the advanced scale he should pay little more—but it must be considered That every year the railway company had raised their fares; and if the impo- sition-were submitted to this year, they would have another next year. He understood that the company pleaded poverty as an excuse for the increase of the fares ; but even under those circumstances the directors ought to oonder what would be the effect of the proposed altera- tion, and whether or not it might eventually tend to the advantage of their undertalcincr_ that a ;,,entaeman, largely connected with works in the neigh- bouilmod, and who gave employment to a number of men. thus bringing traffic to the line, would, if the advance took place, leave it altogether, and others intended to do the same ; the consequence would be that the line must suffer materially. In reference to the increased fares he might state that on the Chester and Birkenhead railway the charge bycontract was £1 per mile perannum,and the same on the London and Nothrwestern ; but the eluirge from Liverpool to Bootle was £5, and to Waterloo &O. The question arose, *bat were they to do in self-defence—whether they should submit to personal inconveniencein order to avoid the line, unless the company submitted to a reduction of fares, or appoint some person on their behalf to meet the directors. It was stated by a contractor present,that Mr. Robertson Gladstone, who had a large interest in the line, was in favour of a low rate of fares. Some 'desultory conversation ensued as to the most desirable course to be adopted, dur- ing which, Mr. Busby, one of the -firmsengaged in the ex- tensive omnibus traffic in this town,' entered the room, aid• the chairman called his attention to the question before the meeting. The Chairman .said that a fly boat on the canal had been spoken of, and he wished to receive from the gentlemen present any suggestions they might have to make. In reply to a question as to running an omnibus between Seaforth and Liverpool, Mr. Busby said he was not prepared to make any statement as to the cost of Buell an undertaking or the rate of fares; he would do anything in the omnihus Hue, but the -oost must depend upon the number of passengers to be guaramteed, and other requirements. The meeting then appointed a number of gentlemen to form a deputation, and,. accompanied by Mr. Robertson Gladstone, to obtain an interview with the directors relative to the increased fares ;.also to communi- cate with the omnibus proprietors, and report the result of their inquiry to a future meeting, to Ile held that day week. Ek)GE COMIUTTEE.—At the meeting, osiThursday, Charles Turner presided, and there were .also present Messrs—Shand, Palmer, Robinson' Robertson Gladstone, Langsdale, Brocklebank, Gregson, Barber, Lockett, Hol- den, Rankin, Smith, Chaloner, James Holme, and Evans.— The Chairman said, with reference to the subject of filling up the George's Basin, referred to the committee of works, upon examining very carefully the spate between George's Dock and Basin, and the space between George's Basin _ _ and Prince's Dock, they had found that there-w;as not suf- ficient length in the gut to put an additionaltKdge there, and could not recommend any alteration at that end. With respect to the south end, as there was no entrance from the river there, if was susceptible of considerable improve- ment. He thought that the bridge could he kept shut at • the south end from six in the morning until six-at night. The committee •were anxious to make a bridge exactly opposite to the end of James-street ; but on Mann Island there were three public-houses just opposite where the bridge would be, and which, if the situation of thetbridge was altered, it would be necessary to purchase the leases of and pull down. The committee, after due consideration, thought it best not -to interfere with them at present, as the tenants could manse out a strong case for compensation. When they got hold of Mann Island, after the leases had expired, which would be in seven or eight years, they could make a splendid line of communication with the landing-stage. The committee recommended that the George's Baths should be pulled down by the Corporation, And, if that took place, that the George's ferry basin, or small slip, should be filled up.— The Chairman said, if these :things were not done, there was another very ob- vious improvement that might be made —the erection of a high level bridge at the bottom of James-street. But the committee recommended the trust at present not to deal with the question. After some conversation the sub- ject dropped. The following report from the parliamen- tary sub-committee was then read :—The surveyor pro- duced -his plan, revised pursuant to former directions of this sub-committee, and in order to its being now finally decided upon with a view to the preparation of his esti- mates, to be deposited on the 30th instant. The revised plan shows an addition to the estimated cost of the works of £264,578, exclusive of the price of additional land (about 108,000 square yards) beyond that shown on the original plan, which price, estimated according to the value which has been before provisionally assumed by the sur- veyors, would amount to about £124,000, but as to which latter sum the surveyor refers entirely to the judgment of Mr. Stewart. These additions would increase the former estimates from the sum of £3,417,686 to the total sum of £3,806,213, and might render it necessary to extend the borrowing powers from three millions and a half to four millions ; but which several alterations of the original plan and additional items of cost, though considerable, the sub-committee, having regard to the importance of secu- ring for dock purposes the larger quantity of land at its present value, and to the increased facilities for the exten- sion, improvement, and working of the intended docks, which such further outlay will provide, unanimously re- commend to the favourable consideration of the general In the discussion which ensued, Mr. Rankin additional ground in the centre of the .t advantage.

THE MAYORALTY WE understand that Mr..Lutas AsinNALL TOBIN will be the next Mayor: of Liverpool. This will be a most judicious selection on the part of the Town Council, and one that will be generally acceptable to the town. Mr, TOBIN is a gentleman of high respectability, of decided political principles as a Conservative, of firmness and energy in matters of- business, and yet possessing that urbanity and courteousness of demeanour which has won for him golden opinions from men of all sides. He pos- sesses every quality which can give dignity to the office, and Liverpool will have reason to be proud of the choice. LIVERPOOL COURT OF PASSAGE y,ESTERDAY (BEFORB EDWARD JAMES, ESQ., ASSESSOR.) Tim court resumed its periodical sittings yesterday. The cause list contained the entries of three demurrers and eighty-two issues. FALSE IMPRISONMSIM WILLIAMS V. SIIAW.—The plaintiff was Thomas Wil- liams, licensed victualler, Kent-street, Liverpool, and the defendant, Robert Shaw, cashier in the office of Messrs. M`lver and Co., Water-street. Mr. Tindal Atkinson, in- structed by Mr. Wheeler, stated the facts of the case. The plaintiff, having received an advance note from a seaman in the employ of Messrs. M`lver, went to their office, and received a sovereign in exchange for it from the defendant. He was returning home when a boy from Messrs. M`lver's office caught him on the road, and said he was to go back. He did so, when the defendant demanded the return of the sovereign, observing that there was some mistake. He refused to do so, and again left the office, when the defen- dant sent for a constable, and he was taken to the police- office, in High-street, where Mr. Superintendent Clough allowed him to be discharged on returning the sovereign. —Mr. Brett, for the defendant, applied for a postponement of the trial on the ground that he had only just received his brief. His Honour could not consent, and the case proceeded. For the defence, it was then urged that there had been no imprisonment at all, the plaintiff having walked quietly to the police-office, and that the seaman, from whom the plaintiff had received the note, had not sailed in one of Messrs. M`lver's vessels ; and that, on ascertaining this, Mr. Shaw had pointed the fact out to the plaintiff, and requested him to return the money. The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff—damages, 405., without costs. BREACH OP CONTRACT.

The Inauguration of St. George's Hall, and the universal admiration which it has elicited as a work of consummate architectural magnificence and public utility, forcibly reminds us of the obligations and the respect we owe to the genius and the efforts of its lamented author, the late H. L. ELM ES.. We should feel the obligations the more sensibly from the conviction that those efforts in our favour were amongst the proximate causes of his premature death; and, from the fact that his surviving widow and son have been thereby subjected to pecuniary privations and embarrassments, which we are generally bound to mitigate by every means in our power.. A condnittee has, therefore, been composed to carry out this- expression, in which It is confidently believed every indi— vidual in our community will warmly participate, by the. provision of such means as will relieVe Mrs, Eln)Cs from those embarrassments under which she is now suffering. The late Mr. Elmes rose early into eminence upon very limited means; but the expenses consequent upon such pro— fessional distinction were unfortunately unredeemed by that recompense which, with time, would naturally have followedi. his meritorious labour. Still, he neglected none of the duties of a son, a husband, and a father. The prudent insurance of his life in the Sun Office, was unhappily vitiated by his vain search of health in Jamaica, and his death there in 1847. of. which a small sum only was recovered by the liberality of the directors of that institution.

FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. FRANCS—The funeral of Marshal St. Arnaud has been the event of the week, in Paris ; although, according to the accounts transmitted by the London daily journals, the Parisians did not show that respectful interest on the oc- casion which a stranger might have expected to see dis- played. The appearance of the streets and boulevards through which the procession was to pass indicated rather afae than the funeral of one whose death, particularly at such a moment, must be accounted a national loss. Amongst the English officers present were General Sir Harry Smith, and his aides-de-camp, Colonels Taylor and Holditch, sent especially by the Queen ; and Lord Arthur Hay, aide. de-camp to Lord Hardinge. The decorations of the chapel included scrolls containing the names of the battles in which the marshal had taken part, Alma of course holding the most conspicuous place. The African engage- ments mentioned were Medeah, Thaza, Boghar, Ouaren- zeris, Djidjelli, Bougia, Teniah, Tagedempt, and Little Kabylia.—One of those pieces of personal gossip which, from the public character of the persons concerned, occa- sionally rise into general importance, has been agitating Paris lately. Mad'lle Cruvelli, the delightful prima donna, has thrown up her lucrative engagement suddenly and without legal warrant ; so that her personal property has been seized to make good the loss which the directorship of the Opera will sustain by her neglect of duty. Several reasons, more or less reasonable, were conjectured for her capricious act. The favourite idea was that she had been offended by her name not being given in the bills en vi- dette ; though a few tongues boldly accused the fair can- tatrice of yielding to a large sum, to visit America. The true motive, which has now been discovered, is a more feminine one. It seems that, at the same time with Mad'lle Cruvelli, and to all appearance at the same mo- ment, has also disappeared the young Baron Vigier, a well-known Parisian; and it is said that the happy couple are now safely ensconced in that terrestrial paradise, Brus- sels. The wonder is, why they should have run away from Paris, that being the place which over-ardent lovers gene- rally run to. The reason alleged is this :—The baron is a mere youth—considerably younger, indeed, than the lady —and they have gone to Brussels for the purpose of making their union indissoluble. The young man has an immense fortune. DENMABK.—On Saturday, the 14th, the great motion in. the Danish Parliament came to a second and a final reading. The proceedings began at one o'clock, and ended at half-past five, when, after various votings as to details, the whole motion—" That the Commons House do appoint a committee of nine to draw up articles of impeachment against the Ministry, grounded on their issuing the ordi- nance of July 28, 1854, and on their infractions of the budget"—was carried by the immense majority of 80 to 6. Thirteen were absent, most of whom had previously voted for the principle of the resolution. On Monday the Danish Commons finally approved of the address to the King. They renew the demand for a free Constitution in the whole State, as in Denmark. The revolutionary act of July is entirely ignored. The address was adopted by 90 to 1. Ausrnr.A..—An official announcement in the Wiener Zeitung delicately intimates that the youthful Empress is in a condition which gives the hope of an heir to the throne of Austria. The Silesian Gazette says, that in an audience given by the Emperor of Austria to the French Ambassador on the lath ult., his Majesty declared that his resolutions on the Eastern question would not be in- fluenced by the results of the expedition to the Crimea, whatever they might be, but by a sense of what was due to German interests. They were, he said, fixed resolu- tions, and he gave his word of honour that he would maintain them. RUBSIA.—A letter from Hamburg, of the 12th, says : "We have to-day letters from St. Petersburg to the 7th. The approach of winter was already perceptible, and it was feared that the navigation of the Neva would soon be interrupted. Men's minds in the Russian capital were much occupied with the events of the war. Military pre- parations, and the arrivals and departures of troops con- tinued to take place on a vast scale. The trains on the Moscow railway are constantly encumbered with all sorts of military articles and with detachments a:soldiers to form part of the army of reserve, assembled in that ancient capital of the Empire. Strong doubts were entertained of the Emperor absenting himself from St. Petersburg at the present critical moment, and although preparations have been made for a journey to the army of Poland, the realisation of that project appears to depend on the even- tualities of the war in the East. As to the movements of troops towards Poland, they may be summed up in a few words. The Imperial Guards, under the command of the Grand Duke, heir to the throne, are proceeding by forced marches from St. Petersburg to that kingdom, whilst the different divisions of the Russian troops, which were sta- tioned in Poland since the commencement of the war, are being directed from various sides towards the Austrian frontiers of Cracow and of Galticia, where they are estab- lishing themselves in two fortified camps." NEW ZEALAND.—On the 9th of June an address to the acting Governor (Colonel Wynyard,) was agreed to in the House of Representatives by a majority of 29 to 1, pray- ing his Excellency to adopt and act upon the principle of ministerial responsibility in the government of the colony. To this address the Governor returned a most favourable answer, immediately " sent for " Mr. Fitzgerald, who had been selected by the House to move the address, and cora- minioned him to " form a ministry," which should hold office so long as they should enjoy the confidence of the Assembly. Mr. Fitzgerald is understood to have com- pleted his arrangements, and was to meet the House on the 15th as the representative of the Government. New Zealand has thus acquired the honour of being the first among the Australian colonies to claim and to receive the full benefits of constitutional government. AMERICA. ARRIVAL OF THE AMERICA By the British and Ni th American Royal Mail steam- ship America, Captain Lang, which arrived on Sunday night, we have intelligence from New York to the 10th, and Boston to the 11th, and by telegraph from New York to the 12th inst. She brought ninety-seven pas- sengers and $437,863. The Canada, Captain Stone, arrived at New York on the 6th inst. The steamer Hansa, from Bremen, arrived at New York on the 9th inst. THE LOSS OF THE ARCTIC The folloring further particulars of the loss of the Arctic are taken from the Boston Daily Post, of the 11th instant : _ _ _ _ _ _ " Up to the morning of the 10th, the loss of the Arctic was unknown in New York. The greatest anxiety existed, and Mr. Collins intended to despatch a steamer in search of her. W" The Collins steam-ship Arctic is lost. She left Liver- pool on the 20th tilt., with 250 passengers, and a crew of 176. On the 27th ult., at twelve, noon, in a dense fog, about forty miles from Cape Race, Newfoundland, she came in contact with a large iron barque-rigged propeller, bound to the eastward, with all sail set. The Arctic was going thirteen knots per hour. The shock to the Arctic appeared slight, but to the propeller it was frightful. The boats were ordered to the relief of the propeller, and one, containing the chief mate, boatswain, and three sailors, left. It was then discovered that the Arctic had sustained injuries, and that the water was pouring into her bows. The pumps were vigorously worked, and an anchor and chain thrown overboard, but, in spite of all exertions, the water extinguished the fires, and the en- gines stopped. Four of the five other lifeboats are believed to have been well-provisioned, containing the engineers, sailors, a few passengers, and all the officers, except the captain and third mate, who left the ship at an early stage. A majority of the passengers were working the pumps and firing signal guns, and others launching spars, under the direction of Captain Luce and Mr. Dorian, the third mate, to form a raft. A panic suddenly seized all on board, and a rush was made for the raft. A large number got upon it, and into the boat. The sea was then flush with the dead lights, and in a few moments more the Arctic sunk, and all on board perished. At five o'clock in the afternoon of the 28th the survivors of the boat espied a sail, and raised a handkerchief to attract attention, which they succeeded in doing, and found the vessel to be the barque Huron, of St. Andrews, N. 8., Captain A. Wall, bound to Quebec, which took them all on board. The raft was seen in the distance with one poor man only clinging to it. A boat was immediately sent, and rescued him. He stated that after the steam-ship sunk he counted 72 men and four women on the raft, but at eight o'clock he was the only one alive. During the night of the 28th Captain Wall hung out extra lights, fired rockets, and kept a horn blowing, in hopes of falling in with the remainder of the boats, but his endeavours were fruitless. On the evening of the 28th he spoke the ship Lebanon, Captain Story, bound for New York, by which eighteen of the number were taken off. The Lebanon afterwards transferred them to the pilot-boat Christian Berg, No. 16, by which they reached the city. The fate of the propeller and the other five boats of the Arctic is not known. The propeller is supposed to have been the Charity, from Mont- real for Liverpool. Capt. Wall, of the Huron, on the morn- ing of the 28th, saw a singularly-looking craft bear to leeward, but was unable to tell whether she was a steamer or a sailing vessel. He says she had a nondescript ap- pearance, and may have been the wreck of the propeller. The following is the list of those saved in the sixth boat, taken to Quebec by the Huron :—James Adry, ship's cook ; Luke rearety, fireman ; Joseph Connolory, ditto ; Richard Makan, ditto; Thomas Connoy, ditto; James Connor, ditto; John Doury, ditto; Christian Morany, ditto ; James Ward, ditto ; C. Callahan, ditto ; T. Wat- son, assistant-engineer; R. Bryan, waiter; D. Barry, ditto ; Erastus Miller, ditto. Arrived at this port in the Lebanon, Edward Bryan, fireman ; Patrick Mahan, ditto ; Thomas Garland, ditto ; Patrick Casey, ditto ; Patrick Tobin, ditto ; Dobbin Carnagan, ditto ; Win. Nicolls, Terescoe, Sicilly Islands, passenger ; Henry Jenkins, ditto, ditto; J. Thompson, New Orleans, ditto; Captain Paul F. Grann, New York, ditto ; Geo. H. Burns, Phila- delphia, ditto ; Francis Doran, New York, third officer ; Thomas Brennan, assistant-engineer ; John Connolly, engineer's steward; Thomas Stanton, officer's steward; James Callaghan, porter; Michael M`Laughlan, boy; Peter M`Cade, waiter, picked off the raft. The following are the names of the persons known to be in the ship's boats :—The five boats which may have reached land or been picked up are known to have contained Mr. Gurley, the first officer ; Thomas Wilder boatswain ; Mr. Balane, second officer ; Mr. Graham, fourth officer ; Wm. Moon, New York, passenger. Also, Mr. Rogers, chief engineer ; Mr. Drown, first assistant ; Mr. Walker, second ditto ; Mr. Willett, third ditto ; Daniel Connelly, John Moran, John Flanagan, and Patrick McCauley, firemen ; Mr. Dingell, Mr. Kelly, and Mr. Ivison, engineers ; and a young man named Robinson, under instruction in the en- gineers' department, besides sailors and quarter-masters. Among those last seen on the quarter-deck, while fasten. ing life-preservers on the females, who must have sunk with the ship or perished on the raft, were Captain Luce and son, Mrs. E. K. Collins, Master Coit Collins, Mr. Brown and family, senior partner of the firm of Brown, Shipley, and Co., of Liverpool; Mr. Thomas, importer of hosiery. New York ; Mr. D. Adams, Brooklyn ; Mr. Bowen, Cincinnati ; Mr. Charles Sprague, Michigan ; Ira Muirhead, jun., Petersburg, Va ; Mrs. Hewitt and daugh- ter, Fredricksburg, Va ; Mr. Wood, New York ; Mr. Ysakey, Mr. Schmidt, Miss Merton, Falmouth, England ; and a nephew of Mr. Bloodgood, hotel-keeper, Philadel- phia, residing in Albany, the Duke de Grammont, of the French Embassy, George Stewart, wife, and children, Amelo, a coloured girl, and Mary the stewardess, Miss Jones, Mr. Petrio and lady, Steward Hollis, Washington, ditto, J. Cook, Opelousas, La., with many more. A Mr. Comstock, brother to the commander of the Baltic, was drowned by the capsising of a boat, while being lowered. The above particulars were furnished by G. H. Burns, of Adams and Co's Express, Philadelphia, who says he had Government dispatches from France and England, re- ceived from Mr. Buchanan, which he could not save. There is a doubtful report that Mr. David Cannon is among the saved." The boilers of the lake steamer E. K. Collins had ex- ploded, killing 23 persons. The Indiana Free Banks' paper had been refused. The democrats had been-siiccessful in the California state elections. Nearly $2,000,000 in specie had been shipped from San Francisco in two steamers. The British and American ships-of-war Amphitrite and Armitise were cruising off San Francisco Heads. They had over- hauled several ships, and the Amphitrite fired into a Dutch vessel to bring her to. The British barque Amelia, Thompson, had stranded in St. Simon's Bay. On the Ist October everything was quiet at San Juan. In the interior, Chomorro still held his position in the Plaza of Grenada, and had taken the three schooners on the lake constituting Costollon's fleet.

THE TIDE OF EMIGRATION, THH recent arrivals and departures of magnificent pas- senger ships—the Lightning, the Red Jacket, the Cham- pion of the Seas, the Guiding Star, and others—will give additional interest to the following article, which we extract from the Shipping and Mercantile Gazette : No nation contributes more active and sturdy masses of population to people other countries than Great Britain ; yet, with this steady and continuous drain on its vital re- sources, no country feels so little consequent evil there- from. The reason is obvious : the children who leave the homes of the parent country lose none of their regard for it, but, on the contrary, become more closely identified in all the bonds of relationship which promote the social, individual, and general prosperity. With better remu- neration for their industry, and a larger sphere of opera- tion for their energies, they become more extensive cus- tomers to our producers and manufacturers ; and while they advance their own interests more rapidly, and build up for themselves fertile homesteads, they at the same time increase the national wealth, and give active and profitable employment to the various branches of home industry: The anvil and the loom, the workshop and the shipbuilder, severally participate in the increased business thus promoted. The man who was but a consumer of goods to the amount of a few pounds in the year at home, becomes in the colonies of Australia, or the back-woods of Canada and the United States, a more important per- sonage, with enhanced wants, and more luxurious ideas, which he finds ample means at command to gratify. To the Shipping Interest this passenger traffic has now become one of the most important elements of the carrying trade, giving profitable and continuous employment to a large number of vessels. The emigration trade, as is well known, centres for the most part in the two great shipping ports of London and Liverpool, and is participated in only to a small extent by some of the other outports—Glasgow sending periodically a few ships, and Southampton and Plymouth having a moderate share of the business. The Liverpool merchants have especially laid themselves out for this conveyance of emigrants in passenger-vessels, and have certainly monopolised the lion's share of the immense traffic. For this they possessed many peculiar advantages, from the situation of this port, and the large number who proceeded thither from Ireland and Scotland, from which countries the living tide first began to flow in strong volume. Some years ago emigration was looked upon rather in the light of banishment, and our various colonies held out their arms in vain to receive an influx of sturdy hands and hearts to their population. Now the case is altered. The difficulty is rather to place floodgates to the stream than to widen its channel. Emigration makes emigration. The gold discoveries of Australia continue productive, and there seems no prospect of their falling off. The fields are rather extending, and although indi- vidual profits may not be so large, the aggregate yield of gold is as extensive as ever. The trade, shipping, and pastoral interests of our southern colonies are also extending to an extraordinary degree, and the demand for labour, instead of growing less, is stimulated. The cry in all the Australian colonies is still, "Send us labour." The 20,000 or 30,000 a year that left from 1848 to 1851, were but as a drop in the bucket ; and although more emigrants quitted our shores in the last two years for Australia than in the five previous years, yet each and all of the settlements are demanding a still higher amount of available labour. New South Wales sends its £200,000 home for labour this year ; Van Diemen's Land offers a bounty of £22 for each introduced immigrant ; Victoria, Western Australia, and New Zealand, demand in equally .energetic terms, that more labour shall be 'sent there. The chief causes of emigration to the West and the East are still steadily at work ; and although the war may have drafted off a large proportion of our population for our fleets and armies, yet the exude in the current year will not be found to differ essentially from that which has been proceed- ing now for several years. There is an expansion and elasticity in the new countries .which absorbs readily all the population sent them, since but few return. Saturate the sponge as we will, it still absorbs more moisture. The Anglo-Saxon race, in all their migrations, is proving worthy of their lineage, and is spreading throughout the world its fame and freedom, its prosperity and progress.
