THE good old saying that "one halt the world is ignorant how the other half lives," ought long shins to have been numbered among popular fallacies. It . . . was true enough, no doubt, in the world before news• papers; it has ceased to be true now that all break fast tables are invaded by the daily broadsheet, with its photographic pictures of every phase of human existence. The law and police reports of the daily journal are the daguerreotypes of actual life, afford ing, if rightly regarded, more sure indications of the characteristics and tendencies of the world we live in, than all the labours of statists and all the theorise of philosophers. We will select a single pic ture from oar yesterday's group se Mash-at lag a branch of human industry which just now appears in a very donrishing state—the art of living upon other people's credulity. This elevated science has never probably attained a greater perfection than in the present day. Modern life is very rapid, very artificial, and very careless. In this great metropolitan hive of drones and bus, where nobody knows anything or cares anything about his next door neighboer—" to NISI • is, in nine cases oat of tea, the same thing as "to be." We have all too mach headsets of our own, to trouble ourselves much about other people's. The individual whose home is separated from our own by the impassable barrier of the, partition wall may be a swindler or a black leg, but as long as appearances are kept up and the bailiffs kept out, no suspicions are excited and no question are asked. It is needless to point out how eminently convenient all this is for people who have the bat reasons for not wishing to be too well known, whore stock in trade is a certain degree of privacy, and whom weer of life is to get credit from everybody, to pay nobody, and puma, to live in luxury oo the easy outlay of "nothing a-year." Stich a career as that of Itomox, the Crystal Palace clerk, with his pair of bays, worth 360 guineas, and his tele bested little trotting mare, "Fanny, who Gould leave London-bridge when the train did and reach Bydenham before it t " with his splendid villa at Kilburn, his "Columbine" in Craven-street, and another expensive "pica of frailty" in a bower at St. John's-wood--such a cameras this could hardly have suggested itself even to the lively imagi nation of the penny-a liner, except in each times as these and such a state of society as that of the smtropelis. The esso we is about to mention vranW that ninths. of tOMISO, which, whether fabulosely or not, has gathered resod the comet like career of the Bydenhain swindler i but as a fair swap erases of proficiency in the science of living handsomely for mese years with leas than nothing to start epos, and nothing added to that to go on upon, it is sot aidsserviag of attention. The use arose in the Bankruptcy Court: the bankrupt, whose new nese to have varied fros JOHN Tomo to JOHN FITZROY YOUNG, MI ocossion required, was described as a "general coominion agent, and ale bad porter merchant; carrying on benison under tbe Inn of "JOHN Toone and Co.'

Sines the Emperor's retain to Paris from Biarrits there has been a marked change in the tone of the government journals with regard to the execution of the treaty of Paris. Instead of exercising their inge nuity to invent excuses for whatever Russia or Austria might do, they now seem disposed, to a great extent, to support the views entertained by the Eng lish government.

The branches of revenue which, on a comparison of the two periods, show the greatest improvement are—potable liquors, 21,769,000 fr.; re. gistration dues, 17,241,000 fr.; beetroot sugar, 14,624,0001,.; sale of tobacco, 7,310,000 fr.; import duty on French colonial sugar, 3,828,0001,. 1 stamp duties, 2,386,000 fr. The principal di. Waal:loaf have been on the import duty on formign sugar of 16,061,000 fr., and sundry merchandise 8,802,0001 r. Comparing the reosipts of the first nine months of this year with the corresponding period of 1864, the improvement is much greater, amounting to 136,484,0001,. Regis tration dues show an looms, of 44,725,000 fr. potable liquors 24,230,0001 r.; import duty on sundry merchandise, 17,611,000 fr. ; best root sugar, 10,881,000 fr.; sales of tobacco, 11,480,000 fr.; French colonial sugar, 8,674,0001,.; gunpowder, 2,238,000 fr. The only material &creme is la the import duty on foreign sugar, which shows a diminution of 3,641,0001 r. At the Boars, today, the effect of a fall of I per cent. in Consols, announced by telegraph, was to a great extent counterbalanced by the favourable re turns of the indirect taxes for the first sine maths of the year, published by the Monitor. Them rc tarns show an augmentation of upwards of 34,000,000 fr. upon last year, and of 136,000,000 fr. as compared with 1864, and the estimates of the budget foe the eine meads are exceeded by 78,000,000 fr. The Rent, °peed with firmness, aid was in considerable demand for eons time, but in the middle of the day sales predestinated, btteineme was dull. and prices retrograded.

It appears to to certain that the polioe, with a view to mitigate the great amonat of dimontent sow exist's, among the poorer oboes in Part, have sent round to the principal home proprietors to reeommend them strongly not only not to raise rents, bet to be oared not to exact payment too rigorously from these who are ill able to pay. This species of interference with property, considered as a medial arum is likely to be um, Wildest, but it b a very atrikieg symptom, indeed, of the pressers of the times. I have heard this evening a very tragioal story, the truth of which is, I believe, not doabtfal.

According to an official list of the new Spanish ministry, published by the Messager de Bermes, and said to have been sent by the civil governor of Gui pasaoa to the Spanish consul at Bayonne, M. Arragola, who was rep3rted by the Moniteur to be Minister of Justice, is not in the cabinet. It is thought that he will be restored to the post of President of the Su preme Tribunal, which he has already held. M. Seiju is the Minister of Justice; M. Baozenallaua, Minister of Finanoe ; and M. Moyano, Minister of Public Works. In other respects, this list is in con formity with that published originally in the Express and Alcesiteur. The Madrid Epoca of the 11th contains the follow ing passage, which reeds strangely when we bear in mind that the unexpected change of ministry took place on the 12th, or very little more than four-and• twenty hours after that journal was published: At the reception the Quin gave the President of the Council end the other Weston: unequivocal: proofs of the pleasure which ohs felt at the conciliatory policy of the pre sent cabinet, which tends to dr►w together all the hopertent political nun is Spain. Oar august sovereign did the same at the bell in the evening. Her Majesty opened the be 1 with the President of the Council (O'Donnell) so her partner, and Manhel Noreen had the honour of dancing with her af,erwarde. Her Majesty also danced with M. Rios ROM, Minister of the Interior, with General de la Conchs, with General Echague, civil governor of Madrid, and with a member of the cmpa diplomatique, whose nese we could not amertais. The ball was very brilliant, and it was not until alter foar o'clock in the morning that the Clasen left it. The Leon Espanol and:;the Espana, organs of Karma's psety, of the rinse date, vehemently deny that there wri any tenth in the assertion of a Cadiz journal (which had created some sensation) that a sort of conspiracy had been formed in the house of the Doke de Rivas for ousting O'Donnell and his colleague., and forming a new ministry of General Nerves., Mike de Rivas, M. Moyano, M. Nocedal, and others! The Madrid Gazee publishes a decree which re establishes in the province of Ouipazaca the Central House of the Jesuits, which wea founded in 1861 trader the ministry of M. Bravo Menloi and closed et the revolution of 1864. A correspondent of the Nord of Brussels writing from Paris uys :—" I have just learned that Marshal Serrano, ambassador at the French Court, has re ceived a despatch from the Spanish Minister of Foreign Affairs, informing him that the change of ministry has no political signification and is a sport. burnous and personal act of the Queen' A letter of the 11th, from Madrid, says that the renoontre between General Narvaez and M.

NAPLES. A letter from Vienna, in the Wsirtsberp Gazette, says:—" The Neapolitan government matinees its armaments with the greatest activity. The wer reserves have been called oat, which will bring up the force of the infantry to nearly 70,000. A spcoial credit has bzen opened to General Filangieri, the chief of the artillery, who is occupied in replacing all the old guns on the batteries by new ones. The same activity is displayed is the naval department. The Log has ordered that all the vessels of war shall be fitted out for service, and that operation is going on so rapidly, that in a short time two line-of-battle ships, fifteen sailing and steam frigates, two cot settee, and several small steamers, and a great number of wheats, will be ready to leave the Neapolitan ports." THE PRINCIPALITIES. The &bats of this day has ea article of M. de Sexy founded upon oorrespondenoe from Vienna and Berlin, in which it is stated that Austria continues to justify her occupation of the Principalities by the doubtful conduct of Russia on the question of the Bee earabian frontier, and that the views of the cabinet of Vienna are not at variance .with those of either Turkey, Prussia, or Easkuld. Advisee from Constantinople to the Bth state that a firman had hese published touching the " national representation" in the Principalities. It mime no mention of the union of Moldavia and Wallachia. A ministerial oriels wsa expected, and Baschid Pasha wee looked upon as the future Greed Vizier. A letter from St. Petersburg, of the btb, says : so The Minister of Public Instruction has returned here from the tour which he has been making for several swaths put in the various governments of Ruda, and particularly in the Central and Western ones. He has sent in foil reports to the Emperor' relative to the visits which he made to the several universities. In general his reports expose 04U/- faction at what be paw, bat they also point out many items on which improvements are called for." The same letter says:—" The incorporation of the regiments of the old dragoon corps in the 7th cavalry division of the active army has just been effected. This proceeding lessens the Russian army by five regiments." Amounts from Teheran state that M. Bowie, French minister at the mart of Persia, and Boron Lejeane, the hewer of the dim estices sent by the Emperor of the French to the Shah, had in July a Dolma audience of 'the latter sonata. The two diplomatists, in a outlay drawn by six horses and precoded by outriders in fall livery, arrived at the royal camp escorted by nemerous troops of cavalry and Aare emit by the Xing.

After a short audience the French diplomatists withdrew, and were carried back to their residence with the same ceremonial that had been arranged for their coming. (7110 M 01J11 BEYROUT, SIPT. 29. Beyront is inhabited by some 50,000 souls, of whom one half are males. Of these 25,000 there are but 1,600 persons who are either Turks as to country, or Mahometans as to religion. The re maining 23,500 are nearly all Syrian (or Arab, as they are called, which word does not mean in this part of the world an inhabitant of the desert— called here a Bedouio—but a native of Syria), Christians belonging to the Greek, the Greek Catho lic, the Maronite, the Roman Catholic, or the Pro- testant churches. Of this population almost every man is either a merchant, a trader, or a shopkeeper. Such as have no dealings in Be root itself are either agents for merchants at Tripoli, Latakia, Damas cus, Jaffa, Sidon, Caiffa, or Aleppo, or themselves have agents in one or other of these places. Beyrout is, in fact, not only a large trading place on its own account, but is also a sort of Royal Exchange for the whole of Syria, Cerement!, and Palestine. To be what the French call dons les affairs. is here the rule— not to trade is the exception. The few exceptions are the Consuls of England, the United States, France, Austria, Prussia, Russia, and Greece, the minor consuls—of whom more presently—being all petty merchants or shopkeeper.. Besides these there are here several houses of French and Italian priests, friars, Jesuits, and Lazarists, and half-a-dozen or r of that most excellent, hard working, and truly sin cere preachers of God's word, the American mis sionaries of the presbyterian church. Nor must I omit to advert to the Turkish authorities—the Pacba, his council, and many others too numerous to men tion. From all I can make out, the former great man doss nothing at aU, while his other countrymen help him. In fact, the Arab Christians of the country appear to have got not only a great deal of energy of the ir own, but also to have appropriated all that of the Turks, who in attempting to govern the land do nothing, and do that badly. There is a vast deal of good about these native, or Arab Christians. It must be confessed that, without the slightest Russian or Greek sympathies, they hate their present rulers with a consistency and ill will at which no one can be surprised. I remember some years ago attending Divine Service in au Irish prc testant church, where the whole congregation con sisted of the clergyman, who read prayers and preached, hie clerk, his wife and two daughters, Wass myself, who WU only a passing stranger. This clergyman, I was told, had a large income attached to his living; whilst over the way—a hundred yards off—there was a Roman Catholic chapel crowded by some, fifteen hundred persons, whose priest lived on the charity of his flock. itufatur nornise, and this is the seats of affairs in Syria. The Arabs, who own the land, create by their dealings as merchants, the wealth of the place, and pay all the imposts, hays no more to say In the management of affairs than the King of Naples has in those of England; whilst the Turkish officials are paid enor mous salmis. for really and truly doing nothing whatever. An English joint stock company's bank, called the Ottoman Bank, bu lately sent out an agent here, and a branch of the establishment is about to be opened. Everyone says that its spoorss is certain, and that, by greatly lowering the rates of interest, discounts, &c., it will afford a very great help to both oommercial and private interests in Syria. The people here put immense trust in the good faith of English. men, and I think that an English bank must prosper in Syria. The other day I went over the premise' which the agent of the bank has taken in the town. They consist of the hest house in the most central part of the business quarter of Beyrout, and are being fitted up quite in the style of an English bank. Hitherto the people of this country Save been obliged to pay for money on good security, tee, twelve, eighteen, and even twenty-four per cent. I do not know what interest the Ottoman Bank will charge, but it is said that it will greatly reduce these rates, and still leave a consider able margin for profit. Beyrout is, as I said before, the greatest place of business in Syria. In fact the natives call Alexandria, Beyrout, and Smyrna, the only three real places of business in the Levant. At the former place the " Bank of Egypt" has an esta blishment, of the prospects of which I am ignorant. At the two latter towns the Ottoman Bank has esta blished branches. The Arabs, or Syrians, admire this English energy very much, and they one and all, as well as the European merchants of the place, have determined to support in every way the new honk at Beyrout. Not that the " shroffs," or native bankers, who are de facto mere lenders of money at prices which would niche even the months of Lon don" West end discounting attorneys" water, approve much of the undertaking. Their occupation is evi dently gone, and they have forever lost the sweets ot usury, the unmixed delight of putting out their capital at a compound interest of 12 to 24 per cent. However, as most of these unfortunates are of the tribes of Israel, their troubles excite but little sym pathy in Christian breasts. They have rough-ridden those who were so unfortunate se to be "in their books" long enough, and all persons rejoice at the changes which an English bank must in time work in Syria. As an instance of the manner in which the natives of the mountains about here—the chain of Lebanon—borrow money when they want to improve their lands, repair their houses, or marry their children, I may be allowed to relate the following anecdote, told me by an English gentleman who has long been a resident in Syria. The mountain prince or chief comes down to Beyrout, and goes to a European merchant, saying he wants to purchase so many thonsaad piastres worth of goods, but that the seller must give him credit until the time of the next harvest, or for per haps a period of six months—often indeed ten. To this the merchant replies that be has no objection whatever to do so, provided the intending purchaser can obtain the guarantee of a respectable " shroff" (native banker) or other pavan residing in the town. This security is procured by paying the party who backs the bill from 1 to 3 per cent., according to the time of payment. The bargain is then struck, but the mountaineer only removes the goods into the street, where he then and there sells them to others at a discount of from 24 to 30 per cent, for ready mousy. Thee supposing at the time he wants the coin the period of the harvest is six months off, he is actually paying, when all charges are taken into con sideration, at the rite of 60 per cent. per annum for money, he being the owner of lands and houses within very few miles of the town. I should tell you that as a collateral security, the borrower makes over the titles of more or less property to the Miro& or other who guarantees the payment to the merchant ; 8o that, io point of fact, he is borrowing on mortgage of landed property, at the rates mentioned above. All this will bee/ready changed no doubt by the establishment of an English tusk in Beyrout, and the thousands of lodastrious, intelligent Arab Christians who inhabit Lebanon, have hailed with pleasure the advent of this establishment here. I bare no doubt whatever bat that it will return a very considerable profit, and Ile_good at the same time. In town or country, city or village, the hills or the plains, no public work of any kind is ever, by any chance whatever, undertaken by the Turkish government. At present—the end ot the hot season —water is so very scarce in the town of Bryront that the wealthy classes send for it on mules some miler away iato the country, whilst the poor tske their torus at the few wells in the city, and all night es well as all day are on the look out to procure a small quantity of it. For all this there are within ten miles of the place constant flowing rivers of the very best water, which at an outlay of a few thou sand pounds might be brought into the town in any quantity. The Syrians have a proverb which is not without a considerable quantity of truth, "God made Arabistan (Syria) and afterwards peopled it, bat for oar sins the Devil sent u our government."

THE CROWN OF DENMARK. (raom Alf CORRUPONDENT.) HARBURO, Orr. 11. • The Danish ministerial crisis is only understood by those few who are in the position of having a peep behind the curtain. The King is i lithely under the oontrol of hie wife, the Countess Danner (alias it.,.. mimeo, a milliner, French in the sense of Sheridan's in the School for Scandal). Now neither his uncle, Prince Ferdinand, nor the adopted successor, Prince Christian of Holstein•Dlucksburg, agree with the King in hie taste, nor do the nobility delight to honour his lady. When he wished to raise her to the rank of duchess the ministry preferred their resignation to the responsibility of such a step. To take her revenge for being despised and mortified in her pride, she is intriguing to alter the succession, and to put the crown on the head of the King of Sweden, trying to prevail on her husband to abdicate in favour of the latter. There is no doubt that such s change would be for the benefit of the country, because in the fret , instance Oscar is a much more clever man than either the King or his uncle, or any of the Holstein princes. Moreover, the union of the thrts Scandinavian realms would afford more strength to each ceuntry. Nay, the combination would form a powerful bar. rier against Russian aggression in that direction. It is in this sense that the Schleswig•Holetein party would favour such a union, and it is said that in Denmark proper it meets with many partisans. King Oscar has been coquetting with the Danish nation for many years, whenever an opporunity offered; for instance, the Schleswig-Holstein war, the reception of the Danish students coming from Update; and the example he set was followed by his subjects. The hatred which used to prevail between the two neighbouring nations has ‘corn away long 'since, and made room for sincere friendship. The strongest opposition the plan is likely to meet would be in the city of Copenhagen, which would lose many advantages it now enjoys by the court, which ultimately would be trenetertt cl to Stockholm, though the former city might be the royal residence for a part of the year. How far the guarantee given to Prince Christian's succession in the treaty of Berlin, by the Pentarchy, would interfere, I do not venture to predict. THE LOSS OF THE ROYAL HAM STEAMER TAY. Many conflicting statements (•sys the Scotsman) have ben abroad about the lora or safe arrival of the Royal Heil steamer Tay. The folio. ing letter from one of the officers of the Tay, which hat just reached the relatives cf the writer at Edinburgh, via New Orleans and New York, will interest our readers: " Tampico, Sept. 6, 1856. " The poor old Tay is lost. Thank Ood: all hut these ere saved! and we are now in Tampico, where we are re er—sitiog ourselves after the Iris's we have undergone for we are all of us more or less debilitated by exposure. I hope you will rewire this letter as so tr as the news of the loss of the ship reaches England, to I retreat you being uneasy. We struck about half post five en the morning of the 30th of August, and were obliged to abandon the ship about four hours after. I have loet nearly everything, so also have the rest. We bad to pull about thirteen miles to an island called Lobes, where we re mained four days. We luckily found two well. of water on the island, or we should all have pinched. We were loot on the coast between Vera Cruz and Tampico, jest off Lobos. As soan as we knew that we could not save the ship, the second officer and Admiralty sgent, with mails and pamengers, started for Tampico, which we thought they would reach in twelve hour., instead of which they took throe days; and after all did not get there, as they were obliged to beach the be at, be fore they got there, in • heavy surf. They started in such a Larry that they found, when they bat left the ship, that they had oily about a gallon of water amongst thirty people. They lauded to look for water, but they w.re all so weak that they were unable to ws;k to loLk for it. When the sun went down the heat was not so intense, and they ware able to crawl about; fortunately they then found some, and also some Indians, who provided them with horses to ride to Tampico. The Me:ivies immediately sent down one of their frigates to take us off (from the island of Li,b3s). You msy imagine our delight when we saw her heave in sight. We arrived here late last night (September 5). I am now quite well—only a little weak. Tee ladies in the bout behaved admirably. Poor thing., they were nearly dead. Imagine forty-eight hours without water, exposed to a sun which no one without canpulsien ex poses himself to. I took off some of the passengers, and went is one of our lifeboats with what provisions we could save, and put them into the other boats outside the surf. We fortunately lowered our beats as soon se we struck. If we bed not dose so, we should have been unable to do it a quarter of en hour ef anisette, a. the sea was breaking over us. The life boat behaved beautifully. The captain left the ship last of all; he behaved in a most noble way. . . . I ought to be very thankful it did not happen in my watch; but I suppose) we shall all have to come home to be examined, but ICo not knew as yet. We shall not leave hero for above a mouth, es there is no means of getting to St. Thames sooner. We are modiste our letters by a small schooner which will go to New York tin New Orleans. I hop* you will get this lett, r safely. We went in the boat from Lobos three days running, to see if we could rescue snythiog, hut the surf was so great that we could not manage it, except on the third day, when we got on board, and found a few eatables and some live stock. Lots of the fowls were dead, end else the sheep." HIGH TIDE AND DAMAGE TO SHIPPING. Yesterday morniog, at half-past 1 o'clock, it blew • gale on the river below bridge, and there was a strong Vele roaring. Four vessels, named the Juba sad Elisa beth, Naples packet, Northumberland, and Lavinia and Mary, lying at living and Cooper's coal wharf, Wapping, broke from their moorings, and did considt:able damage. They drove up the river, breaking adrift, and bringing with them the barges and platform composing the Wand pier, and a groat number of other craft, Nome laden with valuable merchandise and some empty, and mull the whole of them drove athwart the Aberdeen steam-ship lying off the Thames Police 'wino. There was a tremendous crush, and the ships and barges wero forced on shore. One of the protection piles at the Thames Police causeway was torn down, and a Thames Police galley swamped and nearly destroyed. One of the vessels was sank, but was subs quenily raised cod will have to go Into dry dock for extensive repair.. Several bit gel laden with valuable cargoes were sunk by the violence of the collision with the steamer, and a lag-boat belonging to Mr. Chisto pher Hinds. lightermau, of %Yapping, wee totally destroyed, with a cargo of guano valued at GO guineas. A man was crashed and killed, and a beat con'aining barrels of beer belonging to Mr. Rice, disappeared under water, and has mot bees resovend. Yesterday was the highest tide along the ncrth shore of Southampton Water that ha been kncwn for many years. The wind bad been blowing bard for eee aa 1 boors from the south-west.
