Feeling against Confederation with Canada-Keturn of Delegates from fenirland—Spirited Protestugainsttuo Decision or tho British Parliament— movement in Favor of Annexation to tho United States. Halifax, N. S., July 20, ISOS. —In this part of the New Dominion we are on the eve of stirring times. The agitation for a repeal of the union of Nova Scotia with Canada is growing warmer eveiy day, and, now that the demands of the people of the Province for the restoration of their legislative independ ence have been positively and finally refused by the Imperial Government and the British Parliament, the utmost anxiety is felt as to the course likely to be pursued by the Pro vincial Assembly, on the meeting of the local Legislature next month. To say that the people are dissatisfied with the .present state of things would be to use much too mild a term ardescriptive of the popular feeling. They seem resolved to take no denial of their demand for a severance of the connection with Canada, and they do not hesitate to de clare that sooner than submit to a compulsory union they will throw off. their allegiance to the British Crown, and seek annexation to the United States. On Wednesday last the delegates who had been sent to England by the Nova Scotia Legislature, to plead the cause, of repeal at the bar of the British House of Commons ar rived here by the steamer from Liverpool, and on landing met with an enthusiastic re ception. There came in the same vessel with them Dr. Tupper, one of the leading: -promo ters of confederation, who had gone to Eng land as representative of the very small mino rity in the colony who desire a continuance of the Union. As he stepped on the wharf from the steamer, some of his personal friends attempted" to get up cheers for him, but the few that were raißed were immediately drowned in a storm of hisses and groans. A few minutes after, the Hon. Joseph Howe and his colleagues in the delegation of Anti- Unionists made their appearance, and as they stepped on shore they were greeted with a thundering outburst of applause, which lasted for some time. The Nova Scotians are well pleased with the manner in which the delegates have discharged the duty with which they were charged, and although they have not brought back the answer which the people expected from Britain, it is felt and admitted by all that the fault 1b not theirs. It must not be supposed that the cry of an nexation to the United States has been raised merely for temporary political effect, and that it has no serious purpose in it. On the con trary, it seems to be the determination of the Nova Scotians, failing to obtain a repeal of the Act of Union with Canada, to seek forth with a place in the American republic. Prior to leaving England the delegates addressed a protest to the British Government against the decision that had been arrived at in the case, in which they broadly hint that one of the probable consequences of a refusal to grant the petition of the Nova Scotians for repeal will be the loss of the province to England. This protest, which has been published in the newspapers here, is quite a remarkable document, temperately worded, and digni fied in its tone, but strong in its irrefraga ble logic, and strikingly bold in the assertion of the rights of the people to govern them selves. With reference to the decision of the House of Commons on the motion made by Mr. Bright on the night of the 10th June last, for a commission to inquire into the com plaints of the Nova Scotians, the delegates say in the protest : “As that decision may affect the loyalty of a noble province, and be followed by events ot historical importance, the undersigned, on personal grounds, desire to shake themselves clear of the responsibil ity which the House of Parliament, acting under the guidance of her Majesty’s Govern ment, has assumed.” The protest then al ludes significantly to the United Stales in the following language : “The arsenals and docks of Boston and Portsmouth are within thirty hours sail of Halifax, and £ehind these stretches a whole conti nent, free trade with which would place factories upon all the streams of Nova Scotia, supply capital for all legitimate enterprises; and although political association with the 34,' iOO,OOO of freemen who inhabit this great country might for a time involve high taxa tion, it would open a career for her children, and insure to them adequate protection for ever by land and sea." This being so, Is it wise in England, ask the protestors, to give a new impulse to the elements of disturbance already existing on the North American con tinent as a menace to the imperial power? The protest ends thus: “Having discharged our duty to the empire, we go home to share the perils of onr native land, in whose Bervice we consider it an honor to labor, whose for tunes in this the darkest hour of her history, it would be cowardice to desert” The sentiments of the protest have found an ecno in the provincial press. Most of the newspapers deliver themselves on the perils and duties of the crisis in language hot to be misunderstood. Says one of them : “Once let it be made plain that constitutional efforts to regain what we have lost wohid be vain, . and there remains for us to choose whether we shall remain degraded for the sake of old associations, out of reference to a flunkey loyalty born with us, or strike out boldly for new alliances or new leagues, wherein we may find ourselves valued and treated as bro ther citizens, not ranked among market beasts, to be traded to the highest bidder.” Says another, referring to a speech in the House of Commons of Adderly, the Under Secretary of bwte for the Colonies, threatening coercion: He might h »ve known that the firat drop of Colonial blood shed by British troops would awaken an undying hatred of England, and an enduring resolve not to submit to her rule. He might have known, too, how perilous would be the venture of trying to subdue this colony by force of arms —while the Monroe Doctrine findß favor in the United States, and thousands of armed Feni ans are ready to aid all who are discontented with British rule.” And—not to multiply quotations—a third says: “We have shown how the public mind has been gradually edu cated and forced into the belief that the ma terial interests of this country were to be served by a union with the American Repub lic rather than with the Canadian colony, and how the experience of the past few years-has made it plain to the dullest comprehension -that the two greatest benefits sought in Con- federation— defence and trade—could only be. completely secured by annexation." These extracts will convey afair idea of the feeling prevalent in Nova Scotia at tne present time. The people are prepared for extreme measures, and as it is certain that the Legislature will not recede from the posi tion it has taken up, important events in the bistory of the province may be looked for within the next three months. — N. Y. Tri bune. BITIKA Visit to the lace factory* We had spent two’days in visiting the in teresting objects in and about Brussels. The Palaces, Galleries of Art, the curious Wiertz Museum, with its singular and yet powerful pictures, the Zoological Garden, and the famous field of Waterloo, had all .re ceived Attention.__ Wohadjakeaa drive on the new Boulevards, visited the Park, with its fine shady strees and beautyful fountains, and bad taken a look into the well into which Peter the Great tumbled in 1717, after having taken “too much wine.” And now we were standing in the Grande Place, immediately opposite the Hotel.de Ville. This ancient andjmagnificent Gothic struc ture, ornamented with numerous statues, and its elegant spire, 361 feet high, detained us a considerable time, and th e otherl arge build ings surrounding the square, with their carved and picturesque gables, were also exceedingly interesting. They are nearly all from 300 to 400 years old, and great pains being taken to keep them in thorough repair, it is compara tively easy to recall the eventful history of this famous spot. As we turned to leave, our guide said, “Would you like to visit the Lace Factory ?" “Just the thing,” said one. “Capital,” said another. The ladies,-of course, did not op pose; and the motion was carried unani mously. A few steps from the Hotel de -Ville brought us-to the Marche aux Herbes, and at No. 23 our guide said, “This is the place. ” Passing up a littlo court, we saw upon the gate the words, “Entrez sans sonner,” which seemed almost as pleasant a greeting as the familiar “Come in” we so often hear at home. Obeying the invitation, we passed therportal, and found ourselves in a pleasant garden ornamented with flowers, vases and orange trees. Here we were re ceived by Madame ’Daimeries-Petitjean, the proprietress, who, on.learning.of our desire to inspect the establishment, placed us in charge of one of her assistants, an intelligent young lady, who escorted us to the work rooms. Ranged on each side were a number of women, seated at sloping tables arranged almost like desks, though with a steeper incli nation. Each -wah busily engaged on some intricate pattern, and leaves, flowers, and fruit, and numberless other pretty devices were rapidly developed under their Bkillful fingers, Our young lady guide was very at tentive, and readily answered our questions. She informed us that the Brussels lace is mostly of four kinds or varieties, which are known by the names of “Ordinary” or “Ap plication” lace, “Chantilly,” “Point de l’aiguille, ” and ‘ ‘Flanders Point. ” The thread used in the manufacture is made of fine species of flax, which grows near Brussels, and is spun by machinery into wonderful fineness,the fibre being naturally very strong. From 700 to 900 workmen are employed, who labor mostly at their homes from pat terns. They make leaveß, flowers, birds, wreathes, and other designs, and, when com- plete, bring them to the office. Many of these designs are only an inch or two in di ameter, but very elaborate. In making Application lace the flowers and leaves are made by hand, and the base or net by machinery. The pattern for the proposed fabric is first traced upon dark-colored or black paper, and fine white thread pricked in with needles, so as to form a complete outline. The net is then applied by skilful workers with the nee dle, and the leaf and flower designs and the outline in thread combined with it, so as to form a finished work of much beauty. Chantilly, or black lace, is made in a simi lar manner to that of Application lace. Some of it is very beautiful, and varies in co3t ac cording to the intricacy of the pattern and fineness of the work. One little bit, four inches Equate, was shown us, having for a design the Belgian Lion under a canopy sur mounted by a crown. Small as it was, its value was fifty francs. Some of the veils and other articles of this lace were very ele gant. The name Chantilly, as applied to this lace, is nearly a misnomer, as nearly all o{ i‘. is made in Belgium, Th& price, too, is mush lower in Brussels than in Paris, owing to the comparative cheapness of labor. In making Point u I’aiguille, or Needle point lace, the process is much more diffi cult, as the design and net are worked out together, though sometimes made in separate portions and subsequently joined. We were shown an elegant piece of this laces with graceful design of strawberries and le&v'. s in . tertwined with flowers. Its size wav, twelve inches square, and although informed l]llt it was made in ten distinct piece? nnr „i nOPQt examination failed to detect nnintß union. Its value wan 3 0 r, r . ‘Vw “e a ls ‘ shown many other artici; es 0 f this lace in pro cess of manufacture, and gji •were very in terestmg. Among others was a design for a magnificent of point lace, which, when complete, will he valued at to.ooofr. A richer One oa n be furnished for lkooofr., and, ’ ort * era Me received for shawls at l;j,ui)Ur. each. If hurried, 200 women can work, on a Bhawl at once, each on a separate j pattern, and when completed, each “ > af, twig and flower is guided by ex- P erw> .nced hands to its own proper place in beautiful and elaborate whole. From 'O ne to two months’ time is required to com plete one of the better clrtss of Point lace shawls. But the most beautiful and costly of all is the Point of Flanders. The leaves, flowers, and fruit are worked in minute portions in a peculiar manner, and witß the utmost care. These are then pinned to a cushion or pillow, and the net worked in, ritiitch by stitch, until they are all connected, and the fabric com pleted. A dozen _pm b are frequently em ployed to hold a sing’ leaf in position, and the whole work rer mires great experience and care. This lace 1 is mostly used for trim mings and flounces, and is of wonderful rich ness and beauty. Si jyeral rolls of this splendid lace were shown u a, 0 f varied and beautiful designs. Its genr /ral width was about fpur inches, and the p jice from 260 to 400 francs per yard.

Losdon, July 39.—The Maini>oliit»of thoact for the protection of American citizens abroad, passed jest "before the adjournment ut th.: Congress of the United States, were telegraphed to London and published in this morning’s journals. Tho bLI Is sharply and un favorably criticised by the English press, though Its passage does not appear to excite either praise or an ger. Journal* of all shades of opinion affect to con sider the bill a partisan measure, required by tho exi gencies of the November elections, but think this action of Congress will not tend to promoto tho suo ■ ccss of American negotiations with foreign powers, to secure by treaty the establishment of the principles ' of nationality on which the bill Is based. The London Times says; “The passage at tho American citizen act will surprlso no one. It was to be expected that tho majority of tho United States Congress would make through such a measure as this a direct bid for tho Irish voto In tho coming election. There Is nothing In tho general principle of the bill for England to deny or oppose.. Irishmen who have taken out their naturalization papers In the United .States may properly, nse; passportswhile, traveling in Europej and serve in the armies ot the United States even against Great Britain. So long oa their new cit izenship Is a lona Jlde qualification, modo In accord ance with American naturalization laws of the country, nothing can be said.' Tho real purpose of the Fenian is protected, by the new citizenship thus conferred upon him, to make war upon the •Queen of England In her own realms, bat here they must be treated as subjects guilty of treason. Allens and natives are on the same footing In such a case. The denial cf a jury rnedlelate llngi/ir, In .the trial of the Jacmel packet prisoners, was right, bocaose tho trial of Bach a case as that depended on Internal and not International lawß, : The evidence obtained in the United Statcß against these prisoners, prove that they were members of the Fenioan Brotherhood, and was merely collnteral. The real crime charged against these men was committed on British territory.” The Times even accepts the rulo that a natural ized citizen of the United States may come to England . with Impunity, after plotting against the Queen, In America, If he comes peaceably. Tho Miming Post says the adoption.of the bill by 'Congress anticipates, and consequently delays the set tlement of the question of the rights of naturalized citizens, between the United States and the European powers. Tho latter may justly resent Buch action, oven' while allowing for. tho exigencies of the ap proaching Presidential election. Second Day of the Goodwood Bace». Goodwood, July 89.—Second day’s races.

Tho President and trie Funding Bill The Washington correspondent of the Ledger telegraphs: “aii impression prevails in some quarters that the President Is yet considering whether he will sign the Funding bill. By some It is supposed that Ur. Johnson adopts the construction that the days of the “recess,"' that Is, the days inter vening between the adjournment of last Monday and the convening ol Congress in September, are to be treated as dies non, and that, therefore, the constitutional ten days after the passage of the Funding bill for example, are suspended du ring the recess, and commence to run again at the meeting of Congress in September. “In answer it may be stated, as has been here tofore mentioned in these despatches, that the President positively refused to sign the Funding bill when it was submitted to him, just before the adjournment of Congress on Monday last; that be is not considering whether he shall approve it or not, and that be does not agree with the con struction above set forth as to the running of the constitutional ten dayß, bat treats the adjourn ment as complete, so far as it affects bills sub mitted to him for his approval. The President does not approve of several features of the bill.” NATIONAL BANKA Several of tne Western national banks have recent ly been called upon for an Increase of their securities, which has become requisite on account of an in creased amount of public deposits. In all Instances these banks have compiled with the order. The First Bational Bank of Charleston, Illinois, has voluntarily ceased to be a government depository.

The reßonrces in the uggregage are stated at 81,571,317,136, Including United States bonds, to secure about three hundred and thirty-nine millions and a third. United States bonds and securities de posited to secure deposits, nearly thirty-eight mil lions: United States bonds and securities on hand, twenty millions. Specie, upwards of twenty-one millions. Compound Interest notes, $19,741,000." Three per cent, certificates, forty-live millions. THE NBEEDMEN'S BUHEAU.
