FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 18647t' Arir We oan take no notice of anonymous oomMll• -ideation& We do not return rejected mantoloripts, sir Voluntary correspondenCe is soliolted from all „parts of the world, and especially from our different intary and naval department& When used; it will be paid for. The Administration and Peace. Vindicated, sustained, encouraged, the Administration now stands, above all dis pute, the embodiment of the will of the American people. No party entrusted to. its care the Government for the four years ending March 4, 1869. The Republican; party, elected Mr. LiiicoLN in 1860, but •something more than that great organiza tion sustained him in 1861 ; that party 'no longer exists, and the President now holds his office by virtue of the gift of the 'nation itself. So long as, it is right, his Adnainis tro.tion is' secure of the support of the nlible - North. Party hatredAnay assail it in vain ; • a national decree has justifiedall its measures. Its policy. is fixed. It is a policy of justice.; it will remain one of war until the rebellion is put down; .but, let it be remembered well, the submis sion of the Southern people to the authority of the Union can at any moment suddenly stop the sweep of the sword, and give to the spirit of mercy the opportunity it has 'so lOng desired in'vain. The Go vernment is as ready to make peace as war, and we hail with delight the suggestions so generally made by the Union preps, that another offer of atnnesty.should be made to the Southern people, accompanied with all the guarantees of liberal treatment that the United States could honorably give or 'the South could reasonably expect. Now is the time that such an offer could be made with emphasis. Our armies have com pletely whipped their enemies ; Richmond Is the solitary ppint the rebels have sue •eessfully defended against a.determined ad vance. It, too, is doomed - to fall. Yet, even greater than the triumph in the field. is the revelation of 'the polls. Tile re-election of ABRAHAM LINCOLN by an overwhelming majority has convinced the' Sout i hern people that no aid will reach them from the North ; that the war will go on with yet fiercer energy if they do not submit, anti that the Government is backed by the moral and material force of all the loyal States in its unalterable determination never 'to stop fighting till the laws of the Union are enforced over every inch of its territory. The effect of this double victory upon the Southern people ought to be profound. True, we have no means of measuringit, and it may be that the power of the rebel armies is not yet sufficently broken to allow free action to the popular will, but it is , time to make the trial. W; are strong enough to hold the sword in one band, while in the other we proffer the •olive branch. • in erect, we offer the Southern people the Union: We say to them, " you have it toith peace or war ? You shall - not refusi the Union, but you may choose vbe tween a bloody and a • peaceable acceptance."' But,•,if:the Government offers amnesty, let it be;Offire ' d in terms that no man can mis take. 91 is prepared and able to urge peictror wat. with equal energy. It will grant to the Southern States all that the Republic can yield, without betraying the principles on which it is fourided. It will never treat with the Southern States as inde pendent nations, having the right to enter the Union as if they were now, by the act of secession,.out of-fit. It will not sub mit to reform the Union, because it has never been dissolved. It will offer the most generous of _terms to rebel American citizens, and the moment they submit to the laws, the laws will cease to have ter rors. - appoint no purgatorial duties for the transformation of rebellionSViitr into loyal men ; it will punish none to whom mercy is offered ; submission to the Union will not imply subinission to a pe nalty. The amnesty we' trust it will offer will be one the Southern people may accept without shame, which the Govern ment may propose without dishonor, which the world will admit to be unexampled in impartiality, and not the less noble in its generosity because it is based on absolute justice to all. Freedom will not be sacri ficed to peace ; the slave will not be re- - shackled to purchase the friendship of his rebel master ; but almost everything else - will be granted to an uncondition,al submis sion to the Union. • But to urge peace with energy we must not abandon the war. GRANT cannot sus-- Pendthe siege of Richmond to watch the effect of an offer of amnesty. SHER-- MAN'S Movements are not to be interrupted by a proclamation of his .own Government. No, the more victories we gain the more effect will. be given to our offer of peace. Every blow upon the military power of Divls loosens the fetters of the Southern peofile, and forces them nearer to the - And if, offering peace, for the third time, it is rejected, we shall not then have lost our advantage, but will be ready to can) , on the war ;with a force hitherto unknown. Yes, if our offers of mercy are to-be thrown back contemptuously by the rebel leaders, they must reap the whirl wind they will have sown. The war will ex tort the peace they refuse, and it will be a short war, a sharp one, and one that will have no successor. If we must have the Union by war to the last, we will take care to settle the peace question forever. - liin,LlNco.mc's re-election, it was to be expected, has given an edge to the propo sition of JEFFERSON DAVIS to the rebel Congress for employing slaves in the.army, - with the liberty-bounty at the - end of their term of - service.

'They can adopt - a system less complex than that of the Republic of which they have seen the dissolution. Nor do the delegates show the slightest disposition to take their neighbors' Fede ral Constitution as their example." Up to the time of the war, we were told by British travellers and political students that nothing could exceed the simplicity of our Constitution. But the fact that the Canadian Constitution is that of a " Confe ' deraey," arid ,not of a Union, e*plains all "the "meaningless meaning" of the Timm 'The .Canadian )•L'ovinees need not, indeed, trouble ..themselyee to secede from each other.

An English journal declares that ihe Earl of Derby has sent a circular to his House of Commons' supporters that -a: Dis solution of Parliament would probably take plac6 about the 10th November. It is very improbable that he has any be lief of this. Except in very extraordinary instances, such as after the passing 'of the Reform Bill in 1832, 'and the formation of the first Peel Government in 1834, a Ge neral Election does not take place in Eng land so near the close• of the year—on the very threshold of winter, so to say. The present House of Commons was elected • When- Lor'd Derby was in office, in•the apring, of 1859; it assembled,. pro forma, for tjw . swearing in of members, on the 81st of . May, was opened by Queen VIC TORIA in person on the 7th of JUne, 1859, and would not legally terminate, under the Septennial Act, until 'the 30th May, 1866. It may, run two' or three sessions yet, if Lord PAIZIERSTON pleases. cannot have any obvious motive for dissolving it now, and, if• he did, would experience the disadvantage of " going before the coun try," (as it is called,) without having any rallying party cry. He declines promising. Parliamentary Reform, (no one would now believe him sincere, if he did promise it, for he betrayedthe Reformers in 1859,) and a reduction of taxation and expenditure, on which he might appeal to the people, has !yet to be declared the present policy of England during the coming session. As for'Lord DERBY, he is not acting as if .he, head of the Tory party, expected a dissolution of Parliament. The last report, from Knowlexy Park, (his country seat,)' :mentioned that having corrected the proof 'sheets of the forthcothing Iliad of HOMER, 'translated by him into English blank verse, he was very busy making preparations for receiving the Prince of Wales as his visitor. • This matter is of interest to us only on one account—the Palmerston Ministry are committed to soine -reasonable shoW . of neutrality in American affairs, but; if 'the result of the Elections were to place Lord Runny in office, we may reasonably appre_ hend that the neutral policy would be laid aside, for Lord DERBY and most of his fu ture colleagues, Mr. DISRAELI excepted, have publicly expressed their sympathy with the " so-called Southern Confede racy." It is for our interest that PALMER STON should continue master of the situa tion. c The Late Railway Murder in' England. The case of MULLER, upon whose guilt of murder the.press of England has shown such general certainty, has begun to gather mystery since his conviction. From the time of -his extradition in New York to the present, we have refrained expressing any opinion as to his guilt, naturally suspecting a - case of circumstantial evidence so whole sale and instantaneous. If there never was so plausible a chain of evidence against a murderer, there certainly never was a more focilish criminal than MULLER. That he ac tually convicted himself, strewed his path of flight w.ith.every•circumstance whiclionUld lead to detection, and even committedthe murder with the same want of economy and reason, passes surprise. MULLER, af ter a full and fair trial, according to all evidence, is convicted. The criminal is a foreigner, bewildered by the fearful • net which is thrown around him, and says little, and finds little to say. VICTOR HUeo pictures such a case of circumstances in the wretched and helpless boor who is tried for a theft committed by Jean Val jean. MULLER may be as guilty as possi ble ; but some strong instinct of disbelief in his guilt, htd sympathy for his loneli ness as a stranger, actuated the German Legal Protection Society of London in bringing forward a remonstrance in favor of reprieve. There now appears to be a in Mummies case,- and. -the •universal confidence • - of - his'--guilt in the London mind is changed to a half-sympathy for the criminal. Under these circumstances, it is not improbable that MULLER has been repiieved ; and all who have heretofore satisfied 'themselves with what seemed a perfect romance on the old 'text that "murder will out " may have reason to prepare for a more mys terious complication of the old plot of cir cumstantial evidence. Without recounting the case as it stood at court, we present the -points of the German evidence in MUL LER'S favor, as given in the report of the Loudon Globe. The watch belonging to the murdered Mr. BRIGGS, and found on the person of Mums; will be remem bered as one of the strongest proofs' of his guilt : "The Baron von Erlanger said that Muller had minutely described the man who sold him the watch at the docks ; and on inquiries being made of the dock officials they said that such a man was one of four pedlers well known about the place, but that he had not been seen since about the time of the murder. They made search for liim, and found that he. had Changed his residence several times ; and when they at last discovered him, he gave a very hesitating and unsatisfactory account of his dealings. In re. ference to this statement, the chairman, Mr. Lasker, said he bad been visited by a person who for twenty years past has been familiar with people about the docks, and who came to him to Say that watches were often sold to pedlers there. He asked his visitor to give him some descriptions of these pedlers, and accordingly he wrote on four separate pieces of paper four several accounts, one of which exactly tallied with Muller's own. Mr. Lasker then desired his informant to mark that paper with a cross, and the observation he ma,dein reply was : is strange you should ask me to mark this paper, for it relates to the only one of the four men whom I have missed for some time past.' The decision of the meeting was to alter the tenor of the memorial in such away as to petition for time, in which the value of' this new evidence may he tested. - "The following' incident, the 'full pa,rticulars of which have been ascertained'. by recent inquiries, - and which it is considered has a connection with the murder of Mr. Briggs that demands proper investi gation, will, in all ,ftebatility,_have. a. principal poSition in the stateneent whiCh will be' issued ty the Gernian committee. Ifis stated that abotit two o'clock On the morning of the - 10th of July last, a few hours after the commission of the murder,a Mr. Poole, who resides in Edmonton, was in his bed room, when a parcel (as it afterwards proved) was thrown against his house, breaking. one of the windows. This parcel, it would seemchad been thrown from a cab which was passing , down Lai road away from London. Mr. Poole, with the view of getting some 'payment for • the damage done, immediately pursued the cab, whieh, after *a long chase, he• overtook. There were four men in side. It is said that, as far as could be seen, there was an appearance of considerable disorder about these men. One of them was without his hat, and with a handkerchief bound round his head. Mr. Poole was told hurriedly that the bundle was thrown for a lark, but that he would be paid, and the cab drove on. The parcel which had been thrown against Mr. Poole's window was found, on being examined, to contain a -pair of trousers. Later on the , Sunday morning, at about 11. o'clock, M. Poole saw the, same cab returning towards London, and noticed that there were then two of the Same men in it, and this time Mr. Poole was accompanied by one or two respectable inhabitants of the neighborhood. It is understood that the German Society have suc ceeded In discovering three, if not all four, of these men, and that they are in possession of the trousers, which are found to be stained with blood, which has been ascertained to be human. The committee are said to be in possession of other evidences which they consider of the highest importance as bearing on this case, the complete investigation of which they desire to promote." A tavern-keeper, writing to the London, Star, gives another circumstance relative to the suspected cabmen -who visited his house - two hours after the murder of itr. BRIGGS. One of them was seen to fling away his hat into a pond, :replacin&it with' what is called a "-deerstalker," and to afterwards beg a hat with which to return to London from one of the. police.. The cabmen; haying been . described And recog nized, the facts given may Jead to strong counter-proof in favor of Minima, if it does not convict any one else. There is no im propriety in doubting the guilt of even one so apparently convicted as • MIILLRB:. If we should look for startling circumstantial evidence shattered by a revelation beyond. the law, where else would we be more, likely to find it than in the case of a fo= reigner like 3117LIMR, who, if he committed the murder, did it utterly without : the or dinary, safeguards of the least ingenious murderers, and under conditions belying ..sdmitte,d intelligence ? Beyond the seen pf.the murder, and the extradition *of murdeiei, the case has no sensational aspect. • But: . if, Instead_ of fastening the guilt — tipthi a' foreigner never before •SUS pekbd . of,driine, the , law yet.succeeds in showing that the murder was the result of studied contrivance and conspiracy on the part- of more prOfessed criminals, the case' Will be less strange, ,bilt per haps." , more consietent. There is no show at present that MuLurat had a confederate, while there is reason to sup pose that it required more than one for its consummation, and native criminals rather than a stranger.: We have thus given the doubtful view of the case without, forming any opinion. The law is a vast, and often extremely accurate calculating machine, but, as we have seen in New 4Jersey and elsewhere, it is terribly wrong when its fundamental figures are fictions, when time produces an earthquake beneath the barren logic of the courts, 'and the victim rises in resurrection. Despair of the Confederacy. The Richmond correspondence of the London Times gives us some facts orthe situation in LEE'S army,- which we have heretofore but remotely suspected from the tone of the Richmond papers. • The Times' correspondent, who has always been IV faithful ally-of the rebels, is an unwilling witness; we may believe, to the views which our own generals have expressed re garding the comparative weakness and ex haustion of the army under LEE. It is no insignificant admission that LEE'S defence of Petersburg has so far rendered that of Richmond powerless as to make the pros pective evacuation of the former city a matter •of necessity. His army is so weak that it is likened to a skil ful one-armed boxer who is fighting a bully with two arms, stronger, taller, more active and keener-sighted than him self. He is , so greatly inferior. to GRANT numerically that he is forced to keep a large portion of_ his army at Petersburg, and thereby suffers disadvantages - ecpial to the loss of an arm by a prize-fighter. He now finds it almost impossible to cut GRANT'S entrenchments in any vital place. The shape of the ground and the positions of the forces are such that the lines can only be attacked in two or three places, and these GRANT his strengthened by double and triple lines of fortifications, garrisoned by strong bodies of men. Be- Ades, LEOS constantly kept on the qui vise, watching for assaults that may be made at any uncertain moment. His men are, therefore, kept incessantly in the trenches with scarcely any protection from the weather, ill-clothed and ill-fed. - Ever since the opening of the campaign upon ,the Rapidan, for More than one hundred and sixty days, an uninterrupted pressure has been forced upon him, telling fearfully on their morale. The correspondent says : "They have been exposed to one of the fiercest summers ever known in Virginia, scantily fed upon meat—mostly salt meat—and broad, without yoga tables, with only occasional coffee, with i lne other sti mulant, and threatened, ceaselessly by °ye rw helm in g numbers, who have at their command all that a lavish profusion of expenditure and the scientific experience of the whole civilized world can contra. bate. I cannot be blind to the fact, as I met offi cers and privates from Gen. Lee% army, that they are half worn out, and that, though the spirit is the same as ever, they urgently need rest." With this army he finds it impossible to inflict any damage on GRANT, except by surrendering to GRANT the very guerdon for which he strives. He could, by aban doning Petersburg, and falling back Across the Appomattox, occupying the heights of Pocahontas, be able to make a much stronger defence. But this would of course. give up the Southside Railroad, and make his last position, though much stronger for a short defence, yet for a siege much worse than the first. This is the quandary to which Gen. LEE is reduced, according to the admission of his own friends. The straits of Gen. LEE show the desperation of the Confederacy. But we have a still more ominous admission as follows: If •the ponfederates maintain their present atti dude before Richmond, and continue to hold their enemy at bay until, as is hore anticipated, a great disaster has overtaken Sherman in the West, I do not scruple to say that, In my opinion, Richmond will laugh its assailants to scorn. If, on the other hand, Sherman is able to extricate himself from his present critical position, byeither beating or outwitting Hood, there will be reason for apprehension about Richmond, during the coming winter, the like of which. Cline never existed before.? This opinion of the Times' correspondent is almost equivalent to an axiom, if we s grant that SHERMAN'S position is at all criti cal to the army which he commands, or the genius which leads it. The success, of SRERMAN is the fall of Richmond—thus conjectures the London Times ; but the re bels have apparently no hope that even the improbable defeat of SumumAN—unless that defeat embraces his ruin—will deliver Rich mond or the Confederacy. The world may 'mark this judgment, while it observ& the determination of the North in there-elec tion of LINCOLN. That GRANT and SEEER MAN should now be backed by, all the vigor and influence of the Government, and all the strength of the Republic, seems to be the duty of the hour, IT is understood that the report that General SHERMAN'S movements menace important points is entirely true, but the known facts cannot be published with pru -dence. We may say, however, -without disclosing anything by which the enemy may profit, that he :will strike terror to the heart of the rebellion, and do even more to cripple its resources than he did in the cap ture of Atlanta.

WASHINGTON.. SPEECH OF PRESIDENT LINCOLN. Congratulatory Visit or the Maryland Union Stnte.Committee. THE ADOPTION OF THE FRES CONSTITUTION A • VICTORY FOR THE WASHINGTON, Nov, 17.--This afternoon the Ma ryland Union State Central Committee formally called upon President Lincoln to congratulate him on his re•electton. Mr. W. H. Purcell, chairman, in shis 'address said they felt wider deep obligation to hlm, because, by the exercise of rare discretion on his.part, Mary land to.day occupies the proud position of a free State, and they desired that his future administra tion of the Government, as In the past, might result in the restoration of the Union r with universal free dom as its Immaculate basis. The President, in reply, said he would not at. tempt to conceal his uglification with'the result Of the election. He had exercised his best judgMent for, the good of the whole country, and to have the seal of approbation placed on his Coarse was exceed. ingly grateful to his feelings. • ' He expressed his belief that the policy he had pur sued was the best and the only one whioh could save the country. , He repeated what he had said before, that he hi 'dniged in no feeling of triumph over any one who. thought or acted differently from himself. Ho bad no such feeling towards any living man. He thought the adoption of a Free State Constitu tion for Maryland was a great victory for the right. In conclusion, he repeated what he had previously said, namely, "Those who differed from and - op. posed us will see that their defeat was better for their own good than if they had been successful. ll Some tithe was spent in pleasant intercourse, the President relating several anecdotes appsopriate'to the occasion.

The Albany Evening Journal has the affidavits of forty-six men belonging , to one Ward who were deterred from voting for the Union, National, State, and local candidates, by violence and threats of violence at the polls. The mayor of the city, Mr. Perry, was present at the time and witnessed these proceedings. One of the, Union men swore that he asked for protection and assist nee to vote, to which Mr. Perry replied as If you had a good Democratic ticket you would have no trouble." One man was stabbed three times *fifth an awl, and several were beaten with (dubs. The mayor -has since attempted to extenuate his conduct by charging General 'John F. Rathbone with - the attempt at military inter ference at the Ninth-ward polls on election day. Mr. Joseph Shook, the Union candidate for Assem bly, who loses his election by these means, it is said.will contest the seat. It is further declared by the Evening Journal that challenges wore excluded from the polls In Several districts, and hundreds of illegal votes received without protest.

THE. 'moors IN PINE CONDITION-THE REBEL RS. The special correspondent of the New York Eve ning Post writes as follows, dating his letter in the field, Georgia, Nov. 10 If you were to see the army under General Sher man's immediate command at this moment, you' would hardly suppose a rebel force was operating in . any manner in its rear; for Hood's army, although in no way touching Sherman's com munications, yet, at Florence, may •be said - to be , in his rear. This army, now .dovering Atlanta, bits been for several days. past taking things quite easily ; not that it has been idle, for there has been a healthy degree of activity going on, pretty much like that of an • athlete or prize fighter who under ,goes that thorough training which prepares him for the vital struggle. Probably there has never been more perfect army to take the field for a campaign ;than that in Georgia at the present time. Trans 4ortation has been reduced to "the simplest neces ;Pities of the occasion. All the sick and wounded ihave been sent to the rear ; unnecessary armaments ;Dave been dispensed with ;and extra tents and bag ':gage have been removed, and area now on the way :northward. The army is literally stripped for the ;march and thelight ; and certainly, in addition to all this, no body of men were ever mentally or phy. sically in a more encouraging condition for the grand duties of a soldier. The surgeons report their commands to be in the healthiest possible state, and a more cheerful set of reen Mind be imagined. It is quite:singular to see how the idea has spread about amongst the residents of this country that we intend abandoning Rome, Atlanta, and the lire of railroad. Those unfortunate refugees are coming in from all sides, begging to be sent North. En. tire families find their way to the stations, and piti-• ful sights are witnessed every day. These Unfortu nates are content. to take any place they can Iret— on the top of cars, in the open baggage.orates, upon platform cars, perched amidstoannon and ammuni tion boxes, exposed to the wind and the rain, which, for several days past, has fallen with great violence. What these poor refugees are to do when they ar rive North is a question which must be answered by the philanthropic people of the Northern cities. It must be remembered that these people claim to bu Union, and there can be no doubt that large num bers were opined to the ordinance of secession. Whatever ray have been their opinions, their farms have been overrun and desolated by both armies during their numerous marchings and counter , marchings. They have not only been stripped of every eatable thing—beast, fowl, or vegetable—but fences, barns, and houses- have furnished wood for the soldiers' campfires, and as you ride along in any direction, openings in the wood, °ern. stalks .standing here and there in the fields, or rose bushes and otherilowers in beds and plats a t little way from the roadside, show where there has been a farm, and perhaps a village, with its quiet homes, cottages with surroundings of cultivation and refinement. Ent these are fast disappearing, and the destruc. Lion soon.be complete. Surely no people have more bitterly.paid the penalty of crime than these. •But the most guilty offenders have not yet been • reached. South - Carolina and the lower part of this State have, as yet,. remained secure from the ap proaeti of the bated Yankee.

In • Augusta alone, I am told, there are stored nearly half a million bales of cotton, while the largest powder magazine in Atherica is there, containing the largest supply of powder 1n the - rebel States. Our brother soldiers, too, are confined in loathsome prisons in those parts, half starved,c All-heused, naked, and suffering. Would it not be a noble achievement and a terrible blow to the'rebellion could these prisoners be set free, the rebel wealth destroyed, their munitions• of war, the 'machinery and their important cities captured _1 • • z As I said above, the citizens around us seem to have the idea that we are about to leave the coun try, and they prefer to fly to the Ills they know not of, rather than face the depredations of the gueril las.

IMPORTANT CAPTURES.—The force of deteotiveil under Provost Marshal McPhail have, during the past few days, taken some valuable prizes in the shape of sea-going vessels engaged in contraband trade on the Chesapeake Bay, and the captains and crews made prisoners. By making these captures the marshal has obtained much valuable informa tion from letters and papers falling Into his hands, which go to show how the blockade Is evaded on the shores of the Chesapeake, by vessels trading from eastern ports,to Baltimore and Washington.

GENERAL BUTLER started on Tuesday for Washington, whither he was invited, says rumor, to accept the position of Secre tary of War. • THE "-BROOKLYN-MisTarnir” inquest has been held upon the remains of the mur dered man whose fate is involved in the now noto rious " Brooklyn mystery." The pollee are, as yet, in the posiession of no clue to the perpetrators of the deed, although their exertions have resulted in the development of certain facts which may, by some possibility, become available hereafter. To these facts the coroner did not publicly refer, his silence having been requested by the superintendent of the New York force. The testimony of the die. meting surgeon indicates that the deceased was shot twice, and that one of the balls was fired from a ride.. The discharges bad been close to the face, which was filled with powder grains in the region of both wounds. The jury returned, the following ver dict: " That saidunknown man came to nis death by a gunshot wound in the brain on or about the 2d or 3d of October, 1864. .We are: unable to say at whose hands 'the deceased received his wound.. It is very probable that more than one person is cogni zant of the terrible affair, and we recommend the authorities to increase the reward already offered for the detection of the criminals." WROLEB ALE FORGERY. A most consummate and successful system of for geries has been perpetrated upon some ;of the banks of this city and. State, and upon many of other States, bat until day before yesterday the au thors of them could not be discovered. Your road. era may remember that last September the Hanle of COMmerce, of this city, was defrauded of $25,000 by means of a forged check so well executed that the officers of the bank honored it without suspicion, or without asking a question. The forgery was discovered a day or 'two afterwards. Detect ives Farley, Euatace, and Tiemann were engaged to ferret out and arrest the scoundrels. This they succeeded a few days ago, and in the develop ments at the hearing, before Justice Dowling, lit is shown, as I state above, that not only were they successful in " chiseling,” or penning, more pro perly, the Bank of Commerce, but also other banks of this pity, and several in other localities. In De cember, 1863, they drew $3,140; in Ju1y,1864, $9,000; in September, '64, $14,000 from the Mechanics' Bank ; in June;lB64, $20,365.42 from the Merchants' Bank, and, on'the same date, $3,000 from the Paci fic, all by counterfeit signatures of different bu siness gentlemen. It was evident, from the outset, that none but the- most Skillful could have thus succeeded, and consequently the, attention of the detectives was first-turned to those of doubtful re pntation who might be supposed to attempt such feats. -The sequel proved the correctness of their surmises. They arrested men named Waiter Pat terson, Michael O'Brien, Ira Gardner (alias Gar aide), Gcoige F. Coughlin, Hugh McNeill°, John St. Clair, and Spencer Pettus. These are the prin cipal men in the gang, and their crimes have been exposed by one of their own number—George F. Coughlin—a young man who was taken into their gang because he unaerstood bank business. Pat terson is said to belong to your city, and has the reputation of being the most export penman and ac complished operator in his profession. He has passed several terms in Pennsylvania and New York State prisons. He is even now under indict ment ler forging the name of Simeon Draper, col laptor of this port, on a check for $l,OOO. O'Brien has been noted as a hotel and bank , operator, and is said to be the brother of Honors Shepard, the most skilful and successful female counterfeiter that ever cussed the co entry. - Gerald° has often been arrested in this city and yours, but has, I think, never been convicted. Pet tus has been long known as a notorious thief and pickpocket. He is remarkably intelligent, and spurns the assertion that he is a thief, having striven always to assoolate with respectable men,- and thus prevent suspicion. But a small part of the money has been recovered. The whole amount is con tained in three $l,OOO bonds, which have been re turned to the Bank of Commerce, to which they be long. ROOMS FOR THE PRODUCE HEN—A " PORE RING." A new Produce Exchange was opened this morn ing, and at last the 1,500 or 2,000 merchants who are engaged. in that branch of trade have something more than a hundred square feet on which to con gregate. They still remain at the Eichange, and have two rooms, instead of ono. Although the lin provements are not yet entirely made, yet sufficient is done to promise something neat. In the way of delicately-colored frescoes. One curious feature is what is called a pork ring. It is a circle of black walnut, raised from -the' door, around which the merchants in that commodity can argue and char. fer over and tix prices. Under the old regime they used to assemble in ,a: clioular. crowd, which grow and grew, until persons in the centre were nearly suf focated, and could only escape by energetic elbow iniarid shoving, much to the discomfort of their neighbors..

The :Auburn, California, Stars and Stripes tells the fol. il'pjiiing horrible story.: ,SOmethinsr over one year ago tho wife of one Curtis, of Virginia, in this country, died, leaving two small children, one a mere infant. The latter was placed by the father under the care of a family in' the neighborhood, named Coates. For many months past the neigh bors have seen nothing of the • little one, and on a recent visit .to .the premises, some ladies, who had been friends of its deceased rather, Inquired about and wiShed 'to see it,. hut were informed that it was outside and could not be found. The ladies were .quite anxious to have it produced, however, and urged Mrs. Coates to find it and let them see it, whereupon she went to the rear of the house, and, after considerable delay, brought the poor little thing in. Its appearance was such as to-cause any heart possessing an atom of hums.= pity to sicken. It had beenlkeptAled to a stake by a cord around its waist, in an outhouse, with nothing but a filthy bit of blanket to rest upon. It had adt arrhcea and was allowedto wallow in its own -filth. It was reduced by starvation and neglect to a mere skeleton--could not raise its hands to its head ; the cuticle, which in a child properly oared for, should have been rosy, soft, and a " thing of beauty," was a loathsome mange. Vermin covered it, and it ap. peared as though it had not been washed for months. When one of the kind ladies who re. moved it to her own residence asked on the road for a drink of water, the poor little; speechless thing, by its moaning and yearning looks, plead for some, and when the cup was presented gnashed it in Its teeth, in a starved, hungry manner, and it was wrenched from W. with difficulty. One hun dred dollars was raised in the neighborhood for the maintenance of the little one, and medical atten dance hati,been procured. . • A Too Janne - it BRIDEOnOO3I.—A wedding ce remony at Penryn came to an unexpected close on the 27th alt., under peculiar circumstances. A well-to-do young man, named Andrews, recently returned from Autitralia, had wooed and -won a damsel respectably connected, and having proeured a marriage license, the pair, attended by more than a dozen friends in four or five carriages, arrived at about eleven o'clock on Thursday morning at the doors of St. Gluvius' Church, Penryn. The appearance of the party indicated a more than ordinary desire to do all honor to the oc casion. The officiating clergyman, the Rev. C. D. Saunders, curate, conducted the service, which pro ceeded in dire course until the question was asked of the bridegroom, " Wilt thou have this woman to • be thy wedded wifel" To this, instead of the ordi nary affirmative,she replied, " Well, don't mind taking her for a month or so on trial." This un seemly speech astounded the Congregation and die. gusted the clergyman, who instantly closed Ma book, went into the vestry, and disrobed. The parties followed him, bogging him to proceed with the ceremony, flat %e resolutely refused, and left the building, and conferred with the arch deacon of the diocese, the Rev. Chancellor potts, who is residing at the the fee vicarage. A demand : was made for the return of paid for the li cense, but this also was declined ; and the party, evidently much chagrined, returned to the church and re-entered the carriages, giving orders to be driven as quickly as possible to Falmouth. Amid the ironical cheers of the assembled crowds - the par ties drove off, and just before twelve o'clock dashed up-to the office of the superintendent registrar at Falmouth, and applied to have the marriage cere mony gone. through instantly. For this,.however,. there was not-then time, and the doubly-disap pointed. party repaired to the Globe Hotel, whore t'or the remainder of the day they endeavored, as beat they could, to keep up the appearance of good spirits.— Western Morning IVelvs. PEOTBCTION 'PROM FUTURS Mur.nans. —The same correspondent states that the murders com mitted In railway carriages both In England and " France have directed attention to a new first.class railway carriage, containing as many. places and as commodious as those at present in use.

Famscs.—The name of St. Nazaire, which is beginning to occur very frequent ly In our telegraphic news, represents one of those splendid projects which seofn destined to mark the period of the second empire in France. That pro ject is the dream of a city as rich and milt hty as Liverpool, so that France may have opposite the saes of America a great port and miles of docks, IM show forests of masts, and gladden the Bight of Frenchmen by drawing to a French Liverpool the bunting of all nations. The month of the Loire has been chosen for the new Liverpool, and for many cogent and sufficient reasons. The Loire is a most remarkable river. Taking its rise a little south of St. Etienne, in the southeast corner of France, it flows through its lovely valleys, 'north; past Nevers to Orleans, its most nOrthernly point. Hence it travels a zigzag course, west, to the great Atlantic, passing not less than fear large towns between Or leans and the sea—viz : Blots, Tours, Angers, and Nantes. Nantea had long been a great West In dian port, as well as a city renowned for her sugar refineries—particularly those of M. Alphonse Cezard, held to be a model establishment; bat Nantes was too far from the mouth of the river to be ap proachable by the gigantic ships that were about to do the West Indian and Mexican trade. After much squabbling and opposition St. Namara was fixed upon, which has already been laid out as a. great port and pleasure town, connected with Paris by two lines of railway—one adirect line , andthe other through the fertile valley of the Lo ire, by way or Orleans, Blois , Tours, Angers, Nantes, to St. Na zaire. Tbe great West Indian and Mexican trade is to be opened with a fleet of nine vessels, of 5,000 tons each. At this moment the traveller who may desire to see how thoroughly in earnest the Empe ror is about his new port may see five ships of 5,000 tons each rising side by side in the new yards of St. Nazaire. These noble trans-Atlantic traders are in the hands of 2 000 French workmen under the superintendence of's, Glasgow shipbuilder and a few British subordinates. The French Emperor is making a very interesting experiment. In order to compare the shipbuilding capacity of the Clyde with that of the Loire on a fair footing, he ordered, three transatlantic steamers of 5,000 tons each to be built on the Clyde, while the five monster vessels were In the builders' hands at' St. Nazaire. It is said already, and by Englishmen, that the Loire will have the best of the comparison. Coal can'be obtained from South Wales as cheaply as it can be bought in Glasgow. The superiority of St. Nazaire over Glasgow, then, is_thatthe climate of the former Is much more propitious for ship.bnilding, while wages are lower on the banks of the Loire than on the Olyde. Already £500,000 have been ex pended upon this new commercial port, and arratige meats have been made for a • further Government expenditure of £1,200,000. These two millions stet , ling will, it is said, lay the foundation of a port for a large mercantile marine. The population has in creased with the most extraordinary rapidity. The some time fisherman's village boasted a population of 1,000 In 1657. The present population is estimated at 15,000. Again, the tonnage entering and leaving the 'port has of late years increased at the rate of 100,000 tons per annum.—Liverpool Times- "Tom TrDDLnlt's GROUND."—The "Tom Tid dler's 44. round," of the East Riding, and which has been frequently mentioned by the press, is situated, we believe,near Market Weighton. "Tom Tiddler" himself, in this instance, le a certain Mr. F., who, after studying law for some time in the Middle Temple, took possession, thirteen or fourteen years ago, of a moderate .estate belonging to his aunts, -two wealthy maiden . ladles - residing In the west country. It appears that about three years since Mr. F. had a dispute with a well-known banking company, which led eventually to a levy being made on his movable property, The levy, however, was never fully carried out, the gentleman's aunts having at once settled all claims against him. Whether this unfortunate 'dispute was the ori ginal cause of Mr. F.'s determination to emulate the character immortalized by Dickens, we are nor in a position to assert, bat it is certain that from that time he has not allowed any one to enter his mansion or any work to be done upon the estate, which last consequently now presents as forlorn an aspect as it is well possible to • conceive. In one field on the road between Shipton and Market Weighton, little more than a twelve month ago, a number of wheat stack_t ge oi l at rangeu 60 lie t 9 iirodnee the word York,ln allusion either to the - bank we have already referred to, or else to the city • itself, where more than one trial has taken place in which Mr. F. has been either plaintiff or defendant. But the winds and rains of three seasons have now rendered it Macau to trace out any other letter thanperhaps the final 11, made up of heaps of mildewed and decayed straw, looking like mounds of rotten honeycomb, or dirty sponge. Other cornfields, like the grassfields generally, have never been reaped at all and it will be easily understood that they are hip high in vegetable rankness and ruin. The mansion itself, as regards doors and windows, at least, has an equally desolate look; while in the outbuildings, through the frosts and damps of winter, and the heat of summer, dila pidation of every kind is proceeding at a rapid rate.

Herald. - Tire TOMB OF AN 4.NCLIINT BRIVON.—On T 111311• day-last a barrow was opened near to Seale-house, Bylstone, under the direction of the Rev. Mr. Greenwell, an antiquary of great experience, and in the presence of a great number of persons. The tumulus was thirty•one feet in diameter and about seven feet high, and situate In a meadow. It was opened from the southeast, and immediately under the sod was found to consist of yellow clay to a con siderable depth ; then came layers of blue clay, which bad evidently been raddled, or worked to a liner consistency, doubtless to keep out the water. Exactly in the centre of the tumulus, at a depth of seven feet, d and on a level with the plane of the field, was founan 'oat coffin, formed out of a tree, which bad been split and hollowed, out, and placed due north and south, the head being placed to the south, as that was the larger part. of the tree. When completely divested of the surroundLogearth it was considered desirable to lift it oat, so that it might be examined with greater care, but after be. ing exposed to the air for about ten minutes it parted at the sides and it was found Impossible to move it except by ' detached pieces. The body had been wrapped in a cloth or shroud of a texture re sembling wool coarsely woven, Of which there was a lionsiderable quantity remaining, but the body it self was dissolved by the action of the water wide had gaiped access to the interior of the coffin. Mr. Greenwell .considered the interment to have been that of an ancient 'Briton, and decidedly pre Ro man, and that it was doubtless 2,000 years since. Be said it was the only instance (with one excep- tion, found at Gristhorp, near Scarborough), where an Interment in an oak tree, hollowed out, had a tumulus placed over it, and that it was a very re- markable one, and worthy of being placed on the records of the Arehasological Society. The coffin was more than six feetln length inside, and about seven feet six inches outside. The remains wore carefully collected and replaced, and the mound re stored to its former shape, a small leaden tablet being placed within, stating that it had been opened A. D. MC—Times, Oct. 29. STRANDING 07 THE STEAMSHIP JuEA.—On Thursday morning, the 3d, the line Canadian mail steamship Jura, Captain Graham, was stranded at the entrance to this port. She was one of the Mon treal Ocean Steamship Company's vessels, and left Quebec on the 22d ult., arriving off Greencastle on the 2d. Having transferred all the mails except those 'for Liverpool, the .Tura left for the Mersey. On Thursday morning, shortly after twelve o'clock, during the f og which prevailed, and whilst'in charge, of the pilot, t he vessel ran on shore near Waterloo. Every effort .was made to get her off, but without success. Shortly after she struck, the passengers— seventeen cabin and fifty-one in the steerage—with all the officers not actually engaged, were landed at the north stage. Early in ,the forenoon the vessel pasted amidships, but it is satisfactory to learn that the compartments forward and aft, in which the cargo is stored, remain perfectly tight. Where she separated, the midship section, contained only coals. The cargo will, therefore, be discharged with little, If any damage. Every exertion is being made to get out the cargo, and with that object lighters are now alongside to receive it. Should the weather con tinue favorable, it is expected that the vessel may he floated off. The Jura lies. directly off Waterloo Church, and is partially submerged at high water. the after-part only having sunk. We understand the Jura is the third steam vessel that has run aground on the spot referred to. The Jura le an Ship of 2,014 tons barthen, built on the Clyde, In 1854, for the Cunard Company. She Is 300 feet long, has three decks, and is bark rigged. Her-en gines are of 450 horse-power. The unfortunate ves sel, together with' her sister ship the'Etna (now forming one of the Inman line of steamers) was em ployed by Government during the war in the Crimes, and subsequently she ran between Liver pool and New York. She was purchased about five years ago by the Montreal Ocean Steamship Com pany, for the Canadian mall service. The value of the vessel and cargo is estimated at about .£120,00% —Liverpool Times, Nov. 5. • • , SUCORSBPULPRODUCTION Or - SUGAR_.. BRoM.
